〃Because；　if　what　you　are　saying　is　true；　then　Harry　is　a　very　dangerous　man。〃

〃Yes。〃

〃Just　the　fact　that　he　is　walking　around；　fully　conscious；　makes　him　dangerous。〃

〃Yes。〃

〃What　are　we　going　to　do　about　him？〃

〃Hey；　you　guys；〃　Harry　said；　ing　up　the　stairs。　〃Is　this　a　private　party？　Or　can　anybody　join　in？〃

〃Sure；〃　Norman　said；　〃e　on　up；　Harry；〃　and　he　moved　away　from　Beth。

〃Was　I　interrupting　something？〃　Harry　said。

〃No；　no。〃

〃Oh；　Harry；〃　Beth　said。　She　sat　at　the　lab　bench；　moving　away　from　Norman。

〃Well；　you　two　sure　look　all　charged　up　about　something。〃

〃Do　we？〃　Norman　said。

〃Yeah；　especially　Beth。　I　think　she　gets　more　beautiful　every　day　shes　down　here。〃

And　then　they　heard　a　low　insistent　beeping；　from　the　munications　console　downstairs。　They　exchanged　glances；　and　went　downstairs　to　look。
