Endangered Species (1982)

Henry G. Sanders: Dr. Ross

Quotes 

• Dr. Ross : The test results from the catalog that you sent to me were interesting.

  Harriet Purdue : Really! What'd you find?

  Dr. Ross : First, the incisions. Laser surgery is what I'd have to guess. And we also found traces of a rare bacterium: Clostridium botulinum.

  Harriet Purdue : What?

  Dr. Ross : Botulinum. It's a poison, extremely deadly. And uh, this particular strain has been modified by gene splicing.

  Harriet Purdue : Where does it come from?

  Dr. Ross : Well, I'd never sign my name to this. Uh, Lieutenant Castle did say he wouldn't quote me?

  Harriet Purdue : No, I won't.

  Dr. Ross : Yes, well, uh, the only place I've ever heard of it showing up was in some germ warfare tests that the government was doing, back before this was all banned, back in 1969 and 1970. So, what have you got going on out there?
