Hello, Pendleton.

This is Bennett.

PENDLETON

Who?

BENNETT
|
Bennett. I'm speaking from the Gleneagles Hotel in Scotland. Jedburgh is here, at the conference on the platform, about to take part in the debate on the high frontier. What are you going to do about it?

LAWSON
|
The question is, how high is high? With the latest Star Wars technology, are we on the edge of a new space race? And what does that presage for the future of that other race, the human race?

HARCOURT
|
Look, I have my own sources in Washington and they've sent me a complete rundown of what's going on there.

MINISTER

If you believe what comes out of Washington, you're naive.

PENDLETON

I've had a call from Bennett. Jedburgh's at Gleneagles and he's not playing golf.

GROGAN

Bobby, what's up?

BENNETT
|
No time to talk. You'll have to go straight onto the platform.

GROGAN

Where's Jedburgh?

Inside.

LAWSON

For several years, before his posting to London as an energy attaché at the US Embassy, Colonel Jedburgh reported directly to the Director of Scientific Intelligence at Langley. In his time, he's also been a member of the Standing Committee on Nuclear Materials Safeguards and the International Anti-Terrorism Committee. Finally, I'm sure that my last guest needs no introduction. Our first nuclear entrepreneur, the President of the Fusion Corporation of Kansas, the Henry Ford of the Sunrise Industries, ladies and gentlemen, Jerry C. Grogan.

Hello, Darius. Where's my plutonium?

LAWSON
|
And so, without more ado, to open our debate tonight on the future of space, I call upon the President of the Fusion Corporation Kansas, Jerry Grogan.

GROGAN
|
Ladies and gentlemen, I must apologise for my late arrival. However, I did not want to leave London until I had confirmation that my company's bid for International Irradiated Fuels is to be allowed to stand. It is.
