- Yes, sir.

- That's idiotic.

No, sir, it's a very sound theory.

If it's so sound,

how come he could never make it work?

- Who?

- The Russian! Whoever...

You mean Bersokoff.

Unfortunately, his career was cut short.

I didn't know that. His career...

What happened?

- What happened to him?

- They threw him into an insane asylum.

They threw him into an insane asylum?

And you're working on his theory?

Yeah.

Don't you exercise

any control whatsoever around here?

You come to me and ask me for money

to buy expensive equipment,

so that nitwit kid can work on a theory

that some Russian proposed,

- over 200 years ago?

- Wait a minute, sir!

We may not agree

with the Russians politically,

we may not even like them,

but as scientists,

don't you think we ought to raise

ourselves above these petty prejudices?

Scientists? I'm talking about a nut

they had to lock up over 200 years ago!

Dean, I'm sorry!

Dean, I'm sorry.

I don't how it happened.

These lunatics are trying to kill me.

Wait a minute.

- I've had enough.

- What about...

[students] You don't understand.

[Thunder]

[Thunder]

[Glass shattering]

I must be going crazy, but the guy

in that car looked like A.J. Arno.

It couldn't be him.

He's in jail.

All right, move away from the car.

Come on, move.

What's the matter with you?

Leave them alone.

They're not doing any harm.

Boys, don't pay any attention to him.

- Hi, kids. Nice to see you.

- Hi, Mr. Arno.

What's the matter?

You seem surprised to see me.

- We thought you were in jail.

- Oh, that. That was a mistake.

You know, the police, judges,

they all make mistakes.

But I forgive them. I don't hold grudges.

Dean Higgins, nice to see you.

- [Higgins] Always a pleasure to see you.

- [Arno] Thank you.

What's going on around here?

Arno took over the mortgage

on the college.

He told Dean Higgins that

if he can't make the payment in June,

- to make it whenever he could.

- Sure doesn't sound like Arno.

That's why Dean Higgins

is walking around on airs.

It's the first time

he hasn't had to worry about money.

But I don't understand it.

That guy's a crook.

Crook or no crook,

he's interested in higher education.

He's already dreamed up

improvements for the school.

That's where he is now.

Dean Higgins is showing him around.

I have to run off to a teacher's meeting.

Anything else you need?

No, Professor, I'm just gonna work

on my experiment for a while.

Holy smoke.

The whole thing's burned out.

How come mine and nobody else's?

Oh, boy.

Oh, no.

Gotta be in there somewhere.

That stuff must eat everything alive.

I'll bet I gotta replace everything.

[Tapping]
