00:03 Thanks for convening on short notice.

00:20 I can't believe it.

00:22 Here we are.

00:23 This is atomic test.

00:25 The Russians have a bomb.

00:29 We're supposed to be years ahead of them, but--

00:33 What were you guys doing in Los Alamos?

00:35 And how many people were in these open discussions?

00:45 Too many compartmentalization was

00:47 supposed to be the protocol.

00:48 We were in a race against the Nazis.

00:49 So now the race is against the Soviets.

00:56 Not unless we start it.

00:57 Robert.

00:58 We just fired a starting gun.

01:01 What's the nature of the device they detonated?

01:12 Data indicates it may have been a plutonium implosion device.

01:15 Like the one you built at Los Alamos?

01:18 A secret laboratory.

01:24 In the middle of nowhere.

01:25 Keep everyone there until it's done.

01:27 Why?

01:28 Don't let scientists bring their families.

01:29 We'll never get the best.

01:31 Build them a town.

01:32 Why would I leave my family?

01:33 I told you, you can bring your family.

01:35 I'm not a soldier, Abhi.

01:36 A soldier?

01:38 He's a general.

01:39 I've got all the soldier I need.

01:40 What can I tell them?

01:41 As much as you like, until you feel my boot on your balls.

01:44 You know isotopes, and you know explosives.

01:46 But you can't tell us what you're doing.

01:47 Why would we go to the middle of nowhere for who knows how long?

01:54 A year, or two, or three.

01:56 It's out unleashing.

01:57 A strong force.

01:58 Before the Nazis do.

02:04 Oh my god.

02:05 How about because this is the most important thing to ever

02:07 happen in the history of the world?

02:09 Here you got a little town.

02:14 Everybody will go crazy.

02:27 They won't let me leave.

02:28 I won't let you leave.

02:28 It's happening, isn't it?

02:38 I don't know if we can be trusted with such a weapon.

02:52 But I know the Nazis can't.

02:56 You can convince anyone of anything, even yourself.

03:00 Hitler's dead.

03:01 With a Japanese fighter.

03:05 Nobody knows what you believe.

03:07 Do you?

03:08 There were rumors of espionage.

03:10 Unsubstantiated.

03:11 Los Alamos.

03:12 There's no proof there was a spy at Los Alamos.

03:13 You felt your judgment was sound on the one

03:24 the team could be trusted.

03:26 No one is leaving Los Alamos.

03:28 What are you doing?

03:29 We had a moment where it looked like the chain reaction

03:47 from an atomic device might never stop.

03:49 Are we saying there's a chance that when we push that button,

03:54 we destroy the world?

03:55 Chances are near zero.

03:56 Near zero?

03:58 What do you want for theory alone?

04:00 Zero.

04:01 Would be nice.
