1:45:01
We've just left the president.
1:45:03
He agreed to drop the bomb.
1:45:04
No, you've got to stop 7-12
from being carried out.
1:45:06
Now, wait a minute!
1:45:07
We're not playing Ping-Pong.
1:45:09
We just got through
telling the president...
1:45:11
For God's sake, go back!
1:45:12
It grows when exposed to X rays
or any source of energy.
1:45:15
Tell him no nuclear device
1:45:16
must be detonated anywhere near it.
1:45:18
We just found out Andromeda works
1:45:20
like a little reactor:
1:45:21
Converts matter to energy,
1:45:22
energy to matter directly.
1:45:24
Then the bomb would only provide
1:45:26
a fantastically rich growth medium.
1:45:28
Understand?
1:45:29
No, but I'll pass along
the recommendation.
1:45:32
The boss will be pleased to know
1:45:33
that he made the right decision
1:45:35
on 7-12 in the first place.
1:45:36
Congratulate him
on his scientific insight.
1:45:39
And, Robbie?
1:45:41
You'd better get the
atomic self-destruct in here
1:45:43
disarmed as soon as possible.
1:45:44
Right. I'll start on the clearances now.
1:45:47
It'll be done by morning.
1:45:51
No, no, no.
1:45:52
That won't work until
the damn thing's going.
1:46:19
All the molecules
appear to be the same.
1:46:21
Yes.
1:46:22
Andromeda isn't composed
of different substances
1:46:25
like a normal cell.
1:46:27
All the subunits are the same.
1:46:29
Damndest thing I've ever s...
1:46:31
Boy, a single substance.
1:46:33
Then how the
hell does it operate?
1:46:36
How does anything so simple
1:46:37
utilize energy for growth?
1:46:39
No way of telling
from that structure.
1:46:41
Yes, there is.
1:46:42
With this new data,
1:46:43
we can get a computerized version
1:46:45
of how Andromeda functions.
1:46:54
They're not uniform.
1:46:56
Could be mutations.
