[In the park control room]
No, that's crazy, you're out of your mind. He's absolutely out of his mind.
Wait a minute. What exactly would this mean?
We're talking about a calculated risk, my dear, which is about the only option left to us. We will never find the command Nedry used; he's covered his tracks far too well. I think it's obvious now he's not coming back. So, shutting down the entire system…
You can get somebody else because I won't do it. I will not-!
Shutting down the system is the only way to wipe out everything he did. Now, as I understand it, all the systems will then come back online in their original start-up mode. Correct?
Theoretically, yes. But we've never shut down the entire system before. It might not come back on at all!
Would we get the phones back?
Yes. Again, in theory.
What about the lysine contingency? We could put that into effect.
What's that?
That is absolutely out of the question!
The lysine contingency is intended to prevent the spread of the animals in case they ever get off the island. Dr. Wu inserted a gene that creates a single faulty enzyme in protein metabolism; the animals can't manufacture the amino acid, lysine. Unless they're completely supplied with lysine by us, they slip into a coma and die.
