First there was the dream, now there is reality. Here in the untainted cradle of the heavens will be created a new super race, a race of perfect physical specimens. You have been selected as its progenitors. Like gods, your offspring will return to Earth and shape it in their image.

Tell me, which lunatic asylum did they get you out of?
Hello James, welcome. Do you like the island? My grandmother had an island. Nothing to boast of. You could walk around it in an hour. But still, it was a paradise for us. One summer, we went for a visit and discovered the place had been infested with rats. They had come on a fishing boat and gorged themselves on coconut. So how do you get rats off an island? My grandmother showed me. We buried an oil drum and hinged the lid. Then we wired coconut to the lid as bait and the rats would come for the coconut and pung, pung pung,pung, they would fall into the drum and after a month you've trapped all the rats. But what do you do then? Throw the drum into the ocean, burn it? No - you just leave it. And they became to get hungry. And one by one, sluh, sluh, sluh, sluh, sluh they start eating each other until there are only two left. Two survivors. But then what? Do you kill them? No, you take them and release them into the trees. But now they don't eat coconut anymore. Now, they only eat rat. You have changed their nature. The two survivors - this is what she made us.

The White House.
The only place you're going is our evaluation center in the Falklands
When trouble comes, you'll find us at a small and rather naked little island.
But this is not true. Is it?
What is there to say?

Illuminating.
It's exhausting! Relax, you need to relax.
I just might retire to here.
Been long in Yugoslavia?
I myself have lived here for… 28 years. And I’m just beginning to know my way about.
Are you blind or something? You missed the turn!
Sorry about that, I tuned out there for a moment.
Now where would you like to go?
Miami Airport, because I think a bomb is about to go off.
Now, will that be smoking or non-smoking Mr .....

How can I be expected to maintain the quality of my work, sent out here at a moment's notice?
You'll be using this Aston Martin DB5, with modifications.
That looks fantastic! What's in it?
a beautiful Russian wife.
She has taken a reasonable attitude - like any sensible animal she's only threatening when threatened.
That's nothing compared to what a twenty megaton nuclear bomb can do!
But bringing it to Fort Knox undetected could be risky, very risky.
There are vast rewards for a man of your talents willing to take risks.
Me? I never take any risks.
Why? Are you trying to protect me?
