|
You desecrated all of my work.
|
|
You disrespected science.
|
|
What the hell did you put in that vaccine?
|
|
And when this vaccine fails, I'll be the scapegoat.
|
|
We created a flu that sparked the demand for a vaccine that doesn't work.
|
|
After everyone in the country is vaccinated.
|
|
And the world will have murdered millions.
|
|
Nope.
|
|
Nope.
|
|
You don't have it.
|
|
We need to go.
|
|
Now before that vaccine ships, and more people die.
|
|
Give a certain percentage of the population a fatal illness, and you make sure it's genetic.
|
|
See, that was the exciting part.
|
|
You pass it down.
|
|
So if you have children before you die.
|
|
Peggy, do you have children?
|
|
How much evil do you have to do to do good?
|
|
People are driven by the need to know what happens next.
|
|
Do you want to know what happens next?
|
|
Your father created a world-changing, not world-ending, a world-changing, world-improving omnivirus.
|
|
And we have taken that virus and embedded it in the vaccine of the Stern's flu.
|
|
I know it.
|
|
I know it.
|
|
He created a panic and now everybody's begging for the vaccine.
|
|
No, no, no.
|
|
Demanding it.
|
|
With all the entitlement of a first world country.
|
|
Yes.
|
|
And now we have exactly what we want.
|
|
Hundreds of millions of Americans lining up, offering us their arms, and letting us give them our creation.
|
|
I'm pretty sure when every vaccinated person starts dying, they'll trace it back to you, undetectable virus or not.
|
|
You've all been very busy, and you're all very sharp.
|
|
Are you sure none of you would like to come and work for me?
|
|
No.
|
|
Better than dying.
|
|
Terrible, violent death.
|
|
Then understand this.
|
|
What we are doing is far bigger than death.
|
|
Wait.
|
|
This virus is not deadly.
|
|
It looks pretty damn deadly.
|
|
Tell me this.
|
|
What have you done today to earn your place in this crowded world?
|
|
Exactly.
|
|
Everything I do is a cure for our current situation.
|
|
Wait, how's it a cure if you're killing people?
|
|
I told you it does not kill.
|
|
That was the amazing epiphany we had.
|
|
We didn't have to kill to accomplish our goal.
|
|
Which is what we intend to stop human reproduction for three generations.
|
|
The busy endless global assembly line of babies.
|
|
We'll grind to hold.
|
|
You're sterilizing people?
|
|
Uh-huh.
|
|
In the first five years, we'll start to see major birth rate declines as teenagers vaccinated today, hit their childbearing years.
|
|
You're controlling the future of human civilization.
|
|
Is that what they're calling it?
|
|
It's a very nice euphemism for a species that is replicated like a contagion across the planet, killing all other species in its wake.
|
|
Except things that are cute, like puppies or koalas.
|
|
Pandas.
|
|
Never in history has there been a creature begging for extinction more than the fucking panda.
|
|
Except us.
|
|
You hate people that much.
|
|
On the contrary, I love people.
|
|
How?
|
|
Why would doing what our government or citizenry is too spoiled or self-indulgent to do?
|
|
We are saving ourselves from ourselves.
|
|
Halting overpopulation.
|
|
A hundred years ago, the global population was 1.7 billion.
|
|
2011, it reached 7 billion.
|
|
People live too long, die less often, fuck too much, shit out babies like In 2050, they say it's gonna plateau.
|
|
We'll blow past 11 billion and then slowly begin to decline.
|
|
But by then, it'll be too late to save an earth that bears any resemblance to a world we actually want to live in.
|
|
This planet.
|
|
I love this planet.
|
|
So I decided to take care of the problem.
|
|
By injecting your virus into the veins of every human on it.
|
|
Global warming, mass extinctions, food, water shortages, all these problems can be boiled Down to one thing, overpopulation.
|
|
It's not as simple as that.
|
|
But it is.
|
|
At 1.7 billion, we can be as decadent, self-indulgent, and shitty as we want.
|
|
At 10 billion, we have to live strategically.
|
|
We have to live modestly.
|
|
We have to live selflessly.
|
|
And as you know, we're not that good at it.
|
|
And you're beta testing it on Americans since we're the worst.
|
|
If we don't do something now, right now, in a decade, our world will experience extraordinary privations.
|
|
A war of all against all.
|
|
Water.
|
|
We'll go to war over water, and the people who will die first are the ones without power and money.
|
|
By then we'll be fighting over a world that really isn't worth fighting for.
|
|
You can't just decide people won't have babies because canon and I did.
|
|
What about what this does to people's society?
|
|
Salvation.
|
|
We can form a new society.
|
|
Mm-hmm.
