[Kaufman stops a clock's pendulum]

I recognize that some of you are concerned. But I want to assure you that, if anything goes wrong, measures have been taken. I've established outposts with food and supplies that will support us on our way.

On our way to where?

Anywhere that we want to go. Alternative sites have been chosen for us and our families as well as, uh, necessary support personnel.

What about all the others?

All the others... can be replaced by others.

But...

You're interrupting me, Bill. It's bad timing. Just when I was talking about how people can be replaced. The day may come when you earn yourself some responsibilities, but right now the responsibilities are mine. They're all mine. It was my ingenuity that took an old world and made it into something new. I put up the fences to make it safe. I hired the soldiers and paid for their training. I kept the people off the streets, by giving them games and vices, which cost me money. But I spent it because responsibility's mine--now, do you understand the meaning of the word, responsibility?

[Sutherland stares at him]

We have to do what we have to do.
