Now, look right.
Left.
They're both fine.
Retina's clear, muscles are perfect.
How is my vision, Doctor?
Excellent, Doctor,
as we previously tested.
Let's sit over here.
Why are you really here, James?
As I told you, to get my eyes examined.
Let's have another look.
You had the same examination
three months ago.
What makes you think
your eyes have changed in three months?
Nothing. Nothing yet.
Then this has something
to do with your research.
You're planning to
experiment upon yourself, aren't you?
All right.
You're a fine doctor.
You know what you're doing.
But you only have one pair of eyes.
And with them I want to see.
You see fine.
Sam, what's the range of human vision?
- Distance?
- No, wavelength.
Between 4,000 angstrom units
and 7,800 angstrom units.
You know that.
Less than one-tenth
of the actual wave spectrum.
if we had access to the other 90%?
Sam, we are virtually blind. All of us.
You tell me that my eyes are perfect.
Well, they're not.
I'm blind to all but a tenth
of the universe.
My dear friend,
only the gods see everything.
My dear doctor,
I'm closing in on the gods.
Go ahead, Doctor, make a diagnosis.
Foreign object.
Bullet, it looks like,
in the chest cavity.
All right. How about this one?
Lesion in the heart area,
maybe in the lungs.
Might be carcinoma.
Or a clot. Or just a fog on the plate.
Could be any number of things.
But what is it, really?
Just a shadow play.
A pattern to be used
for intelligent guesswork.
A slight help towards saving the life
of the man who made those shadows.
Immense help, Dr. Xavier.
When you have nothing better,
anything is an immense help.
That's light.
Waves of energy that excite the eye.
And the nerve cells
transmit this energy to the brain.
And with the brain, we see.
But there are other forms of energy
with different wavelengths.
Dr. Xavier, I've read your report.
Yes, but do you understand it?
Have you any idea
what I'm trying to accomplish here?
Dr. Fairfax, I'm developing a way
so that it sees radiation,
up to and including
the gamma rays and the meson wind.
Yes, I understand.
I understood your objective
when I first read your report.
Then why are you here?
Because the report in question
Because since that time, you have drawn
over $27,000 of the foundation's money
and we haven't had a word from you.
- Well, there have been problems.
- Then report them.
To whom, a group of businessmen who
can't tell one quantum jump from another?
No, to me.
The foundation found your research
worthy of support.
They also appointed me
as liaison to these special projects.
Listen, Doctor,
I've given up my own research
to help the foundation
and I won't be talked to
as if I were a child in kindergarten.
I knew of your reputation,
but I hadn't heard about your temper.
- Now, Doctor...
- You want a progress report?
I'll give you something better.
A demonstration.
Come with me.
Doctor Morgan...
You can be of some help.
Put these on.
Now, these are hormones, enzymes.
Their megalostructures
have been slightly altered.
Prepare that one in number two,
the second cage down.
He won't bite you.
It's all right.
Now, this compound, when used
in the eye, increases receptivity.
The sensitivity is enormously increased.
- Well, you've tried it?
- No.
Well, you're blunt, Doctor.
The monkey's been conditioned,
standard pleasure-pain technique.
Come on.
Come on.
All right, bring him here.
Put him there.
Now, when he sees the white,
