turns out he was...

Your friend Lomanitz has been trying

Is this a bad time?

You drop in and out of my life,

Tolman thinks you have integrity,

What 'bout the radiation cloud?

...our arguments against dropping it,

That's a mistake, Robert.

unless there's any immediate business.

it was connected to his, uh,

My awareness of the danger would be greater today.

And you thought Pash would be satisfied with that?

Well, you could.

Enough to find the perfect spot.

On a hydrogen bomb we're not even building.

and I am certain that he had no idea

KISTIAKOWSKY: Yeah.

(breathing heavily)

Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! Oppie!

ROBB: Thanks, and do you have a copy of the letter?

we can get married before she starts showing.

Can't you see it everywhere else?

That you're teaching a radical new approach to physics

Whose... Whose work is this?

at both Hiroshima and...

about his discretion out there?

-I don't think so. -(chuckles)

from your memo dated June 29, 1943?

I wanted to give you a heads-up on a...

TELLER: We all entered this room

I hope I didn't lead anyone to believe otherwise

Shouldn't I know him?

"Just as it had with the atomic bomb," exactly!

the so-called derogatory information

-You supported it! -What do you mean "support"?

SENATOR McGEE: The Oppenheimer situation

Over here! Mr. Strauss!

STRAUSS: Genius is no guarantee of wisdom.

Did you like it better yesterday?

And there's a further observation post

Your invention let us bring our boys home.

She was extremely unhappy.

I'll send a message.

whether you can build a hydrogen bomb.

How could you possibly know that?

you then argued against the use of it? (laughs)

one of my favorite places in the world.

You need to stop playing the martyr.

(greets in Italian)

(people murmur)

(discussion continues indistinctly)

(sentimental music playing)

The Oppenheimer matter was

Under my interpretation (sighs)

in Communist ideas...

Well, I thought I'd better learn it

You've been misinformed.

How open can we be with the Soviets?

He promised to quit all that.

MAN (on speaker): Thirty seconds.

I was attempting to give them Eltenton

GRAY: Dr. Oppenheimer...

and many of your current and former colleagues,

Oppie! Oppie! Oppie! Oppie!

And they're already security cleared.

but I hadn't heard you're a Party member.

He talked to a friend of his

I don't think I should be subject

would you say that you exerted a great influence

Don't let them slow us down, we're firing on the 15th.

Mr. President, the-the Russians have good physicists

Put the mattress underneath.

During the process...

what the results of the bombing are.

ROBERT: "And now I am become Death.

And the world is not prepared.

No, no, no. I...

Could they be working on one already?

-Pardon? -I think you mean

PASH: Instead of us going on certain steps,

we have voted two to one

we've freely used the atomic bomb...

It's just it was all so very long ago,

Well, I hope you learned something.

who thought they'd get a say in how we used their work,

REPORTERS: Sir, sir.

And what stops the glass?

Well, out of the lab, my landlady

I don't know what Oppenheimer said to him that day,

that now threatens our survival.

that he's loyal to the United States.

You were commissioner

One might be led to the presumption

Whatever way you say it, they know I'm Jewish.

That's why I'm considering it.

what's the limit here?

Gentlemen, if I... if I seem uncooperative,

And now I am Become Nick, the destroyer of Chevrons

(tense music playing)

I just thought you should know.

Physics and New Mexico, huh? (chuckles)

(mutters indistinctly)

This way. This is where I keep the good stuff.

Oh, funny, I didn't till you just said that.

I fail to see how national security

why you didn't involve him in the Manhattan Project.

that Oppenheimer was not interrogated

But how would Borden have access to Oppenheimer's security file?

Build him a town. Fast.

Then look at the explosion

But you can't tell us what you're doing?

(mellow music playing)

-If you talk a scientist in... -GROVES: The Manhattan Project

Would you say that Dr. Oppenheimer was

Unstable, theatrical, egotistical, neurotic...

Right now, they're scattered.

I had a little trouble.

But the Japanese fight on.

I am here to update you on our progress

ROBERT: How so?

ROBERT: Fermi's in the meeting.

But there-there may have been

Wha... What do moral qualms

to channel your energies into progress?

but I believe that much I have to say will help to indicate

The brass likes it so much they made me take over

Take off that ridiculous uniform.

highlights the tension between scientists

who also disagreed with Oppenheimer's positions

Dr. Oppenheimer.

Well, I-I think you're all being too goddamn gentlemanly.

I've seen 30 of these in the past ten minutes.

that Robert Oppenheimer is now being

I've been asking for calculations

But today, that pride must be tempered

What did he say?

-Why? Why? -Well, you can't talk to...

(breath shudders)

Oh, don't be a smart ass. You know damn well what it is.

All minds have to see the whole task

Einstein published his Theory of Relativity

until I see very conclusive proof to the opposite.

President Eisenhower has asked you to be in his cabinet.

You don't have the clearance, Mr. Garrison.

To be remembered for Trinity,

You know what, Generalissimo? I quit.

(somber music fading out)

Do them yourself while I go to Princeton.

You see them in there, right?

-Not unless we start it. -STRAUSS: Robert.

Hadn't liked your answer.

In fact, this might be a moment to consider other opinions.

(Kitty breathing heavily)

Well, brilliance is taken for granted

Remind me, who are we at war with?

but this... (sighs)

Do you know who else the prosecution has called?

international cooperation on (clears throat) atomic energy,

(faint pensive music playing)

(others exclaim)

You get any skinnier, we're gonna lose you

There's been another screw-up. Lomanitz just got drafted.

As chairman, I wasn't allowed to be.

and potentially perjure himself,

You supported the dropping of the atom bomb on Japan.

Yes. Once I built it.

Dr. Oppenheimer? Hi. William Borden.

-Lawrence is in the meeting. -They're not you.

Stimson is now telling me

Security officer at Berkeley's concerned about

That's not the point, Lawrence.

Now I'm looking for a project director.

Because it made him

Well, in the days when I was a member,

...these fission pulses, they're massive.

It's not the right use of our resources.

-ROBERT: Oh, yeah? -CHEVALIER: Yeah.

Well, I'm confronting you with it now, sir.

I have my reasons.

'Specially on a Friday. Come on, let's eat.

Well, then kilotons.

-Oppie, please. -Well, there's rushing

it's my humble opinion that there is no need

He was devastated

Wanted to be close to you experimentalists.

Well, I couldn't answer that one.

(Szilard scoffs)

The Russians don't.

for who knows how long? (chuckling)

CONGRESSMAN: But, Dr. Oppenheimer,

Let's celebrate. (sighs)

"with one Jean Tatlock, Communist,

uh, going around official channels,

(thunder rumbling)

we're both finished.

How could Borden get access to Oppenheimer's FBI file?
