[Rorschach enters Doctor Manhattan's lab]
Doctor Manhattan: [continuing his work unfazed] Good evening, Rorschach.
Rorschach: Doctor Manhattan. You know why I'm here.
Doctor Manhattan: Yes... [powers up device] but you're going to leave disappointed.
Laurie: Rorschach! [enters room] You shouldn't be here, you're a wanted man.
Rorschach: Nice to see you too, Silk Spectre.
Laurie: I have a real name I've been using a couple years now. Try it.
Rorschach: Whatever you say... Laurie.
Laurie: What are you doing here?
Doctor Manhattan: The Comedian is dead. Rorschach wants me to look into my future; see if the killer is ever publicly identified.
Rorschach: Already warned Dreiberg. Came to warn you too.
Doctor Manhattan: Even if I wanted to help, my future is blocked by some kind of temporal interference. I cannot see it clearly.
Laurie: Interference? Caused by what?
Doctor Manhattan: In all likelihood... nuclear holocaust. If the United States and Soviet Union engage in all-out war, the resulting blast wave would produce a sudden burst of tachyons, particles which travel backwards through what you perceive as time, therefore obscuring my vision of the present. I must return to my work. [turns away]
Rorschach: Wait a minute. What if that's why someone wants us out of the way? So we can't do anything to stop it?
Doctor Manhattan: Goodbye, Rorschach.
Rorschach: Took a lot of effort to get in here to see you. I'm not leaving... [Doctor Manhattan transports him back outside] ...till I've had my say. Hurm.
