Tell me what happened. I'd like to know about his death. Are you sure you want to know...

Magnus Dens: [Magnus and Paulis are in the ruins of the Dens family home... they talk about the night Lionel died] Tell me what happened. I'd like to know about his death. Dr. Paulis: Are you sure you want to know about all that? Magnus Dens: Yes, I'm sure. Dr. Paulis: [somberly] Well, he became involved in this project and well, it just took over his life! His entire life! He worked... he worked like a fiend! And so did I. I couldn't take it... I had to get away... to the mainland. Then late one night he called me, and he said he had found a definite clue about the causes of mutation leading to gigantism in sea life, and he was going to dissect immediately. Well, I told him to wait until I got back, but well, he just went ahead. And we never found him. Magnus Dens: [stammering] Well, what happened? How could that be possible, I mean, what happened to his body? Dr. Paulis: [low] Are you sure you want to believe in all that? Magnus Dens: Please, Dr. Paulis! I want to know! Dr. Paulis: He was consumed by sea life... then finished. Magnus Dens: You mean he was eaten! Dr. Paulis: [enraged] Yes, he was eaten!
