Gary Merrill: Dr. August Boren
Quotes
-
Dr. August Boren : Stahl? He lives at the bottom of the Caribbean bay like a hermit crab, studying underwater survival. You'll never get *him*.
-
Dr. Craig Mosby : Uh, Mr. Vice President... If we plant these sensors, around the world under the sea, in pressure points along here, and through here, and *anchor* them in the crust of the earth, we'll have the early warning system we need.
Vice President : Well this means a great deal of risk, doesn't it?
Dr. August Boren : We know less about the deep oceans than we do the surface of the moon.
Vice President : And you're willing to take on this risk?
Dr. Doug Standish : Well, that's why we're here.
Vice President : Well gentleman, I'd like you to proceed on the assumption that I can get the necessary appropriation for the voyage of the Hydronaut.
Dr. Craig Mosby : Great!

Dr. Doug Standish : Yeah, he's done some very impressive research in marine biology. M.E. Hanford from England. Well I'm sure you've read for some of his published material in the last couple of years.
Dr. August Boren : *Her* material.
Dr. Doug Standish : What?
Dr. August Boren : The "M.E." stands for "Margaret Elizabeth." Very attractive, too. As a matter of fact, she just finished doing some research for me.
Dr. Craig Mosby : Well, shall we make it Johnson?
Dr. Doug Standish : Why, because Hanford's a woman? Half the doctors in Russia are women. Not a bad example for us to follow.
Dr. August Boren : He's got a point.
Dr. Craig Mosby : You wanna put a woman in that submarine for three or four months?
Dr. Doug Standish : She's also a scientist, and so are we.
Dr. August Boren : Brinkman says you met her in the science building. Under a desk.
Dr. Craig Mosby : Her?
Dr. Doug Standish : That was M.E. Hanford? Well what d'you say now, boss?
Dr. Craig Mosby : No, more than ever, no.
