The sweet scent of putrefaction
already in the air.
He's a fine, strong beast, dear May.
- What exactly do you want to do with him?
- A full genetic study. Break its DNA code.
See if there are evolutional changes
since ours were analysed 200 years ago.
Discover any new hereditary diseases
that may have emerged
which might result in broadening
our immunisation spectrum.
Study its emotional and psychic elements
in relation to its sociology.
That all sounds respectably scientific,
but what is May's underthought?
Not long ago she was asking for new births,
although we have no death.
We are perfectly stabilised.
We said "no" to May.
this animal from the outside.
Think of our equilibrium. Remember
the delicate balance we must maintain.
The presence will dismay
our tranquillity.
May is a great scientist,
but she also has destructive tendencies.
We have means of controlling it.
We are not so vulnerable.
Look at it. It knows its life
is at stake,
otherwise it would rape and kill
as it always has.
- You can see the disrupting effect.
- Let's keep it.
Anything to relieve the boredom.
I want to see more of its memories.
This is a psychic disturbance.
Avalow, what does it portend
for the future?
How did we conjure up
a monster in our midst?
And why?
That is the question we must answer.
Well, you've set
the fur flying, my friend.
inside your pea brain?
I like you, you sly old monster.
Do you hear?
For.
Against.
Verdict.
Congratulations. You live.
For three weeks.
Zed.
I'll examine him later, in the dome.
Morning, Monster. Time for work.
All right, let's stop all the nonsense,
shall we? Where's Arthur Frayn?
Ever hear the expression "if looks
could kill"? Well, here they can.
There's no need to pretend
innocence with me.
I'm in Arthur Frayn's confidence.
I know more than you think.
You're saying nothing.
All right. We'll wait and see.
Don't be sullen.
Whenever you're ready to,
just ask me questions.
Anything at all.
This is where you'll be working for me each
morning. Menial tasks. Nothing too taxing.
- Is this your god's house?
- It's God you're seeking, is it?
Well, here we are.
Gods, goddesses, kings and queens.
Take your pick.
- But they're all dead.
- Dead?
Died of boredom.
That's wrong. It's wrong.
It is catalogued
according to your instructions.
I told you to analyse design growth
across all makes of car,
not just a chronological list
from one manufacturer.
A much more complex program.
Shall I seek vortex consent for a longer
program? Shall I seek vortex consent...
- Yes!
- It will take time.
