Carlos : Hey, I just got an idea. Have any of you guys ever heard of a Golem?
Scott : What are you talking about?
Mark : A what?
Carlos : A Golem. In my religious studies at Loyola we talked basics of the Jewish religion as a part of our course.
Scott : So?
Carlos : So, Jewish legends from the Middle Ages tell of various persons with the power to create a Golem: a monster made out of clay given life from the proper combination of the Hebrew letters from the divine name. The most famous of these creators was a Rabbi named Judah Loew from Prague who lived from 1512 to 1609. He supposedly created a Golem to avenge the enemies of his followers.
Scott : What does that got to do with us?
Carlos : Why not make our own Golem?
Mark : Hey, only make it out of human parts or animal parts or whatever.
Scott : Wow! What an experiment!
Mark : And we're not responsible for what it does!
Scott : It is not human!
Mark : It does not exist! Therefore, there are no legal hassles!
Carlos : We could get parts at your medical school, Scott.
Scott : I don't know. It might not be that easy. I know a guy who works in the city morgue though.
Mark : My friend Wally is a veterinarian. I could talk to him about getting animal parts.
Scott : We can use the garage out back as our lab.
Carlos : When do we start?
Mark : Tonight. We start tonight!
