:33:01
Dad!
:33:06
- The government paid you?
- Of course they paid.
:33:08
Where there's germ warfare,
the bomb, chemical warfare,
:33:12
there's plenty of money.
Special agencies.
:33:17
They pay. They pay a lot better
than they do in private research.
:33:22
For raisin' fish.
:33:24
Oh, no. It's a matter of genetics.
:33:28
Radiation. Selective breeding.
:33:32
They called it Operation Razorteeth.
:33:37
What was it all for?
:33:39
To destroy the river systems
of the North Vietnamese.
:33:43
Our goal was to develop a strain of this
killer fish that could survive in cold water
:33:48
and then breed at an accelerated rate.
:33:51
We had everything. Blank cheque.
:33:54
And then the war ended.
:33:57
You sound disappointed.
:33:59
They poisoned the water.
:34:02
After all that work,
they poisoned the water.
:34:06
But some survived.
:34:08
We developed a lot of mutants and a few
of them were able to resist the poison.
:34:13
They ate their own. Their own dead.
:34:16
And then began to breed
like some wild species.
:34:21
Suddenly there were hundreds.
Maybe thousands.
:34:24
- Our tax dollars at work, huh?
- That's science in the service of defence.
:34:29
Sure. Spreadin' strains
of bacteria in the subway system.
:34:33
You put them in the river where they
could kill people. Including civilians.
:34:37
- And kids swimming in the rivers.
- I never killed anybody.
:34:41
If you wanna talk about killing,
talk to your politicians, the military.
:34:45
No, no. I'm a scientist.
:34:47
- Kids in the water.
- What?
:34:51
The dam.
:34:52
They let water through every few days
to keep the level steady on the new lake.
:34:56
The resort's down there. Summer camp.
All those kids. Come on.
