00:00Thank you very much.
00:43Thank you very much.
01:02Thank you very much.
01:46Thank you very much.
02:08Thank you very much.
02:35Thank you very much.
03:18Thank you very much.
03:26Stop, please!
03:28Stop!
03:29Hey!
03:30Stop the bus!
03:31Stop the bus!
03:32You've never been chasing us since Woodhaden Boulevard.
03:35Yes, it's in town!
03:36Yes, it's in town!
03:40Thank you, I'm sorry.
03:42Please!
03:50Don't even think about it.
03:52You're so lame, you're so lame, Parker.
03:55You're so lame, Parker.
04:00You're so lame, Parker.
04:14Midtown High Seniors.
04:17Midtown High Seniors.
04:17No wandering.
04:18No.
04:19Proceed direct.
04:19I can offer.
04:21Remember, it is a privilege to meet you.
04:24We are guests of Columbia University's science department.
04:28So behave accordingly.
04:30Let's not have a repeat of our trip to the planetarium.
04:34Come on, people.
04:35Let's stay together, seat up the steps, and into the building.
04:47You know, Charles, can we drive around the corner, please?
04:50What?
04:51The entrance is right there.
04:53Dad, these are public school kids.
04:55I'm not showing up for the field trip and the rolls.
04:57What?
04:58You want me to trade in my car for a Jetta just because you flunked out of every private school
05:02I ever sent you to?
05:03It wasn't for me.
05:04Of course it was.
05:06Don't ever be ashamed of who you are.
05:08I'm not ashamed of who I am.
05:12Just with him.
05:14Forget it.
05:18Pete!
05:20Hiya, Harry.
05:22Harry!
05:24Won't you be meeting this?
05:26Thanks, Tim.
05:27Peter, may I introduce my father, Norman Asborn?
05:30Heard so much about you.
05:31Great honor to meet you, sir.
05:33Harry tells me you're quite the science whiz.
05:35You know, I'm something of a scientist myself.
05:38I read all your research on nanotechnology.
05:40Really brilliant.
05:41And you understood it?
05:42Yes, I wrote a paper on it.
05:45Impressive.
05:46Your parents must be very proud.
05:47I live with my aunt and uncle.
05:49They are proud.
05:50Hey, you two!
05:51Let's move!
05:53Nice to meet you.
05:54Hope to see you again.
05:55Yeah.
05:58It doesn't seem so bad.
06:00Yeah, now that you're a genius.
06:02I think he wants to adopt you.
06:04There are over 32,000 known species of spider in the world.
06:09They're in the order Aranae, which is divided into three sub...
06:30Wow.
06:30Family Sporacidae has the ability to jump to catch its prey.
06:36School paper?
06:38Mm-hmm.
06:42Next, we have the netweb spider.
06:46Family Phyllis Tadidae, Jenis Kukulcaneo.
06:49It spins an intricate funnel-shaped web whose strands have a tensile strength proportionately
06:56equal to the type of high-tension wire used in a bridge building.
07:00Keep him alone.
07:01Or what?
07:02Or his father will fire your father.
07:05What's daddy gonna do?
07:07Sue me?
07:08What is going on?
07:10The next person who talks will fill this course.
07:13I kid you not.
07:14This grass spider...
07:15Let's go.
07:15Hunt's using a set of reflexes with nerve conduction velocity so fast that some researchers
07:22believe it almost borders on precognition and early awareness of danger.
07:26A spider sense.
07:29Hey, look at that spider.
07:30Some spiders change colors to blend into their environment.
07:35It's a defense mechanism.
07:38Peter, what makes you think I would want to know that?
07:41Who wouldn't?
07:42Over five painstaking years, Columbia's Genetic Research Facility...
07:47You gonna talk to her now?
07:48The genetic...
07:49No, come on.
07:50You talk to her.
07:51Armed with these DNA blueprints, we have now begun what was once thought impossible.
07:56Disgusting.
07:58Yeah, hateful little things.
08:00I love her.
08:02Yeah, me too.
08:04You know, spiders can change their color to blend into their environment.
08:10Spiders.
08:11Really?
08:12Yeah, it's a defense mechanism.
08:15Cool.
08:16We use synthesized transfer RNA to encode an entirely new genome, combining the genetic information
08:22from all three spiders into these 15 genetically designed super spiders.
08:28There's 14.
08:30I beg your pardon?
08:32One's missing.
08:33Yeah.
08:34Huh.
08:37I guess the researchers are working on that one.
08:41Do you know that this is the largest electron microscope on the eastern seaboard?
08:46You were talking throughout that woman's entire presentation.
08:49Let's go talk about how we listen.
08:55Now, I don't know what it's like if those fancy privacy comes to us.
09:10Hey, can I take your picture?
09:12I need one with a student in it.
09:14Sure.
09:15Yeah.
09:15Great.
09:16Where do you want me?
09:17Over here?
09:18Yeah.
09:19Yeah, that's great.
09:20Don't make me look ugly.
09:22That's impossible.
09:27That's impossible.
09:28That's impossible.
09:29Oh, perfect.
09:40Is that good?
09:41Great.
09:47That's great.
09:54MJ, let's go.
09:58Wait.
09:59Thanks.
10:14Parker.
10:15Let's do it.
10:33We solved the Horizon Glide and the Multi-G balance issues.
10:37I've already seen the glider.
10:40That's not what I'm here for.
10:42General Slocum, good to see you again.
10:46Mr. Balkan, Mr. Fargus, Norman, Mr. Osborne.
10:50Always a pleasure to have our board of directors pay us a little visit.
10:54I want to see the progress report on human performance enhancers.
10:57We tried vapor inhalation with rodent subjects.
11:00They showed an 800% increase in strength.
11:02800%, that's excellent.
11:03Any side effects?
11:04In one trial, yes.
11:05Here was an aberration.
11:06All the tests since then have been successful.
11:08And in the trial that went wrong, what happened?
11:10What were the side effects?
11:13Violence, aggression, and insanity.
11:16And what do you recommend?
11:18That was only one test.
11:19With the exception of Dr. Strom, our entire staff certifies the product ready for human testing.
11:25Dr. Strom?
11:27We need to take the whole line back to formula.
11:33Back to formula.
11:34Dr. Osborne.
11:36I'm going to be frank with you.
11:38I never supported your program.
11:41We have my predecessor to thank for that.
11:43Norman, the general gave the go-ahead to Quest Aerospace to build a prototype of their exoskeleton design.
11:49They test in two weeks.
11:51And if your so-called performance enhancers have not had a successful human trial by that date,
11:58I'm going to pull your funding.
12:00I'm going to give it to them.
12:04Gentlemen, ladies.
