Bomber Harris:
[Wallis and Summers have come into his office]
Hello, Mutt. Wallis.
Doctor B. N. Wallis, C.B.E., F.R.S.:
Good morning.
Bomber Harris:
What is it you want?
Doctor B. N. Wallis, C.B.E., F.R.S.:
I've got an idea for destroying the Ruhr Dams. The effects on Germany would be enormous.
Bomber Harris:
I know all that. I've read the report.
[thumps file folder on his desk]

Bomber Harris:
But, do you *really* think you can knock down a dam with *that* thing?
Doctor B. N. Wallis, C.B.E., F.R.S.:
Yes.
Bomber Harris:
Well, it looks clever enough on paper. But that goes for *all* of these wheezy ideas. When you try to make them work, they fall down *flat*.
Doctor B. N. Wallis, C.B.E., F.R.S.:
This one doesn't.
Bomber Harris:
How do you know?
Doctor B. N. Wallis, C.B.E., F.R.S.:
We've tested it and proved it. I've got some films here I'd like you to see.
Bomber Harris:
[mildly surprised]
Why... If you've proved the thing, why hasn't it been taken up?
Doctor B. N. Wallis, C.B.E., F.R.S.:
I don't know. But the films only take five minutes to run. You could see them and judge for yourself.
Bomber Harris:
Well... All right.
[gets up from desk and heads toward projection room]

Bomber Harris:
Send the projectionist out of the room. If this thing's as good as you say, there's no point in letting everyone know.
[indicates his aide, Air Vice-Marshall Saundby]

Bomber Harris:
Saundby can run the film.
