Tyrell: The facts of life... to make an alteration in the evolvement of an organic life system is fatal. A coding sequence cannot be revised once it's been established.Batty:Why not?Tyrell:Because by the second day of incubation, any cells that have undergone reversion mutation give rise to revertant colonies, like rats leaving a sinking ship; then the ship... sinks.Batty:What about EMS-3 recombination?Tyrell:We've already tried it - ethyl, methane, sulfinate as an alkylating agent and potent mutagen; it created a virus so lethal the subject was dead before it even left the table.Batty:Then a repressor protein, that would block the operating cells.Tyrell:Wouldn't obstruct replication; but it does give rise to an error in replication, so that the newly formed DNA strand carries with it a mutation - and you've got a virus again... but this, all of this is academic.

I want more life
00:00:04.017 --> 00:00:05.421
Father
00:00:13.888 --> 00:00:16.682
To make an alteration in the
00:00:16.849 --> 00:00:19.268
Evolvement of an organic life system is fatal
00:00:19.435 --> 00:00:23.998
A coding sequence cannot be revised once it's been established
00:00:23.189 --> 00:00:24.019
Why not
00:00:24.357 --> 00:00:26.004
Because by the second day of incubation
00:00:26.567 --> 00:00:31.999
Any cells that have undergone reversion mutations
00:00:31.239 --> 00:00:35.535
Give rise to revertant colonies like rats leaving a sinking ship
00:00:35.701 --> 00:00:37.453
Then the ship sinks
00:00:37.662 --> 00:00:41.207
What about ems recombination
00:00:41.374 --> 00:00:42.875
We've already tried it
00:00:43.002 --> 00:00:47.038
Ethyl methane sulfonate is an alkylating agent and a potent mutagen
00:00:47.547 --> 00:00:51.634
It created a virus so lethal
00:00:51.801 --> 00:00:53.097
The subject was dead before he left the table
00:00:54.178 --> 00:00:57.223
Then a repressor protein that blocks the operating cells
00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:01.394
Wouldn't obstruct replication but it does give rise to an error in replication
00:01:01.561 --> 00:01:06.232
So that the newly formed DNA strand carries a mutation
00:01:06.399 --> 00:01:09.277
And you've got a virus again
00:01:09.443 --> 00:01:13.001
But this all of this is
00:01:14.993 --> 00:01:15.658
Academic
00:01:15.825 --> 00:01:18.327
You were made as well as we could make you
00:01:18.494 --> 00:01:20.246
But not to last
00:01:21.998 --> 00:01:24.025
The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long
00:01:24.417 --> 00:01:28.629
And you have burned so very very brightly Roy
00:01:29.255 --> 00:01:31.005
Look at you
00:01:31.215 --> 00:01:33.759
You're the prodigal son
00:01:33.926 --> 00:01:37.001
You're quite a prize
00:01:43.102 --> 00:01:44.604
I've done
00:01:44.077 --> 00:01:46.999
Questionable things
00:01:46.999 --> 00:01:48.482
Also extraordinary things
00:01:49.108 --> 00:01:51.485
Revel in your time
00:01:55.999 --> 00:01:59.952
Nothing the god of biomechanics wouldn't let you in heaven for
