00:04 - Oppie! - Ernest.
00:23 - Good vacation? - I'd like to talk to you for a minute.
00:26 Yeah, sure. Okay, fellas, that's it. I'll see you tomorrow, same time.
00:31 Right.
00:32 I've been doing some thinking. I don't know whether you'll agree with it.
00:39 What took you so long, Oppie?
00:40 Nah, I'm way ahead of you. I talked to Compton again this week.
00:45 And you are looking at a bona fide member of the Uranium Project.
00:49 - Well, that's it, isn't it? - That's it.
00:51 Think you can fit me in?
00:55 Just about.
00:56 - Do you know what you'll be working on? - No.
01:01 I know one thing for sure. This has got to go.
01:04 Not practical for present purposes. We're converting her for war works.
01:10 So what happened to your friends, Oppie?
01:14 The ones who said that there wasn't going to be a war?
01:17 - I don't see them much anymore. - Of course, we might stay out of it.
01:23 And pigs might fly.
01:25 So, you're coming in.
01:29 I guess if you can let go of this, I can throw in my pencil and paper.
01:35 Well, I'm sure going to miss my 100 million volts.
01:43 I'm going to miss my cosmic rays.
01:46 - Drink? - Drink?
01:51 Drink.
01:53 Thank you.
