Dr. Gall

It wouldn't have been such an awful sight!

Domin

[Looking through a telescope toward the harbor]: I'd like to know what they're unloading from the Amelia.

Dr. Gall

Not firearms. [Fabry and Hallemeier rush into the room carrying electric cables.]

Fabry

All right, Hallemeier, lay down that wire.

Hallemeier

That was a bit of work. What's the news?

Dr. Gall

We're completely surrounded.

Hallemeier

We've barricaded the passage and the stairs. Any water here? [Drinks.] God, what swarms of them! I don't like the looks of them, Domin. There's a feeling of death about it all.
