【内容简介】

【选段台词】
Dan: Today, I have the honor of introducing the man who is going to introduce our guest of honor. Bert? Doctor Albert Hirsch.
Bert: I first met Dan Hillcott in 1987 at what must have been the most boring neuropsych conference ever held. We managed to escape that dreary ballroom and find a dark corner and a cold beverage. And we've been finding dark corners ever since.
Albert: My God.
Noah: Where did you find this?
Ric: YouTube.
Noah: I thought we had everything firewalled.
Ric: Yeah, so did I. But then again, I thought the CIA would handle Treadstone, so maybe I'm just behind the curve.
Noah: Hmm.Well, is that it? Is that all of it?
Ric: No, no. They apparently thought it was okay to attend about a half a dozen of these things together.
Noah: Proving what?
Ric: We're looking at the medical directors of Treadstone and Outcome publicly celebrating their top secret man-crush. If this Bourne mess exposes Treadstone, they will turn Hirsch inside out. They'll be talking to Hillcott before we even know what happened.
Albert : What's the damage?
Ric: Outcome. We'd lose Outcome.
Noah: Uh, meaning what?
Ric: Meaning we will burn the program to the ground. And I mean from top to bottom.
Noah: Because of this? Because they're friends? These two guys built our platform!
Albert : You want to wake up and see this on CNN?
Noah: Jesus, Ric. Just like that? Hirsch and Hillcott? How many people even understand this work, let alone have the will to pursue it? Nothing has even happened yet!
Ric: And we have to get ready.
Noah: Ready for what? Ready for what?
Ric: We don't lose it all, we've got the science. We'll keep the data. All of our JSOK liaisons seem to be safe. We've got the beta programs tucked away. We'll take a pause, and we'll rebuild it. I wish there was a better alternative, but...
Noah: God.

3. from top to bottom
