:30:02
Well...
:30:05
We do the same thing to animals.
:30:07
l mean, as a scientist l sympathize, but
:30:10
l agree that's a revelation
the masses would not take kindly to.
:30:13
l think you did the right thing
in denying knowledge of Colonel Taylor.
:30:17
There was another reason.
:30:19
- What?
- They would have asked if he was still alive.
:30:23
- And is he?
- Oh, no. He can't be.
:30:27
- How do you know?
- Cos...
:30:31
From the windows ofthe spaceship...
:30:35
We saw the Earth...
:30:38
destroyed.
:30:46
Stand by.
:30:51
Good evening.
This is Bill Bonds in Los Angeles.
:30:54
The biggest story since the moon landing
broke when two apes talked,
:30:58
l repeat, talked to
the Presidential Commission of lnquiry.
:31:02
With me this evening is Dr Otto Hasslein.
:31:06
He is a senior scientific advisor
at the White House.
:31:09
He'll give his views on the crucial statement
made at today's session.
:31:12
Dr Hasslein, as l recall, when you
asked the male ape where he was from,
:31:18
- the female replied ''From yourfuture.''
- Yes.
:31:22
- Do you believe that?
- Absolutely. l think it is the only explanation.
:31:27
Maybe the explanation
needs some explaining.
:31:30
You've written several learned
dissertations on the nature oftime.
:31:34
Could you explain,
in terms we can understand,
:31:37
how, for instance, a person, or persons,
could travel from time past to time future,
:31:43
or, indeed, vice versa?
:31:46
Mr Bonds, l think time
can only be fully understood
:31:49
by an observer with a godlike
gift of infinite regression.
:31:53
Could you explain
''infinite regression'' for us?
:31:56
- Roll the film.
- l came prepared to dojust that.
