I'm afraid, Captain Ryan, the decision is no longer in your hands.

Professor Flaherty:
Captain Ryan. The creature that you have captured is not an adult specimen. Sam Slade:
You mean it isn't fully grown? Professor Flaherty:
No. In fact, we believe it is in rather early infancy. Sam Slade:
You're trying to say there may be a fully grown one of these things around somewhere? Professor Hendricks:
It's a fair assumption. Where there are offspring, there are generally parents. Joe Ryan:
How big would a full-grown one be? Professor Flaherty:
An approximate guess? [He shows them two scale drawings of the creatures] Professor Flaherty:
The infant. The adult. Joe Ryan:
That would make it nearly two hundred feet tall! Professor Flaherty:
At the very least. Professor Hendricks:
Obviously, the proper authorities must be notified at once. Joe Ryan:
What are you trying to do? Stir up a whole hornet's nest because of a few calculations made on a piece of paper? Nuts to that! Professor Flaherty:
I'm afraid, Captain Ryan, the decision is no longer in your hands. [Cut to Gorgo testing the limits of his enclosure and roaring when he finds an electrified fence. Cut to Gorgo's mother stomping from the sea onto Nara Island]
