Good boy.

Attaboy.

Attaboy.

Attaboy.

Good boy.

They call you the miracle CEO.

I don't know about that.

Smithfield. General Mills.

Kraft. All companies you

helped transform.

I think you forgot

Baskin-Robbins.

I was famous

for my triple scoop.

Background in agriculture.

Post graduate degree

in microbiology. An MBA.

You are obviously

well-qualified, but that's not

what sets you apart now, is it?

Well, I like to be

on the ground with the people.

Like what you did

in sub-Saharan Africa.

Well, it took me going over

there and seeing the climate

issues first-hand,

before I realized how badly

we needed to do something

about those droughts.

And that's where Clonestra's

drought tolerant technology

came from,

which estimates to help

millions of impoverished

families, you say,

within the next decade.

I believe corporations

have to do a better job putting

the people's interests first.

Because when we do that,

then everyone's...

I need you to bus table seven.

How are we doing

with that chicken, Charlie?

Coming right up.

You working a double today?

You know it.

Sorry about that wait,

Mr. and Mrs. Miller.

Let me know if there's anything

else I can get you, okay?

No matter how

we connect all of these

pieces right here,

the communication,

how are we going to get

that idea across,

not just necessarily

for new customers,

but to the chair of the board,

the chair of divisions,

the, uh...

the chair of

the various departments.

Communication in business

involves some extra elements

that are not present for us

in our personal lives.

You've gone out,

done the research.

You have gone

to receive the data.

You're trying to decide

what the customers are,

even if it's in-house,

to the board, to the chair

of various divisions

or various departments--

They're calling it

the deadly flu.

"Should you get a shot or not?"

It's the question everyone

is asking.

Hi, Mom.

Finally.

-Brought home some food.

-What is it?

Fried chicken.

Oh, good. 'Cause my butt's

not quite big enough.

Did Cyclones win?

-What?

-Cyclones win?

Oh, I fell asleep.

Forty-two to seven?

Oh, my God.

It's that rookie receiver.

I was telling Charlie.

It's like, he's got

two left feet.

-He go down okay?

-Mmm-hmm.

Once I pried that toy car

out of his hand,

went out cold.

What is it with

boys and cars?

Don't get me started.

In addition to donating

seeds to your village,

each of you will receive

vouchers which will allow

you to buy more seeds

and fertilizer

at a discount cost.

After many years of research,

we have created seeds that

are able to withstand stress

from the viruses, bacteria,

adverse weather,

soil conditions.

By using our seeds,

you're going to reap

these added benefits.

Plus you'll see increases in the

quantity of your crops to boot.

-What's happening?

Say, what the hell

is happening?

They are rebels. We

must leave immediately.

Time to get up, mister.

Hey!

I don't see you moving,

little man.

Can you not hear me?

Are you playing a game

"I'm Not Waking"?

What?

Oh, my God!

Garrett! Mom!

Garrett. Garrett.

Wake up.

Blood pressure,

temperature,

all look good.

Looks like he just

has a case of the flu.

It said on the news

that it might be deadly

or something. Is that--

I wouldn't worry too much

about that stuff. That was just

couple of cases. Outliers.

Your son looks like he has

a fairly normal strain.

So there's nothing else

wrong with him?

Not that I can see.

Probably caught it

at school.

It's going around.

Okay. Thank you.

Just make sure

he stays hydrated,

gets some rest

and he'll be fine

in a couple of days.

Here that, chicken.

You were a very

brave boy today.

I love you.

Aw, how are you gonna

play me like that?

How are you gonna play me

like that? I said I love you.

-I love you.

-Look at me

and say it.

-I love you.

-That's better.

Good night.

-Good night, Mr. Owens.

-Oh, Kristin.

I forgot to tell you.

I spoke with the contractors.

We should be able to unveil

the new wing in four weeks.

Oh, about time.

I'll put it in

your calendar.

She's going to be a beauty.

Amazing what a multi-million

dollar donation can do.

Does that mean

I get a raise?

Didn't think so.

All right, I am

grabbing dinner.

Will you let me know

if this transfer vector

is successful?

Yeah, let me know if there's

a Jaguar D-type waiting

out front for me.

Never going to happen.

I don't know whose

chances are worse.

Me in this experiment...

or you ever getting

to drive one of those cars.

Hey! One day.

Hey!

You work at Charlie's, right?

Yeah.

I'm Eddie.

-Sophie.

-Nice seeing you, Sophie.

Got a little

boy or girl?

Uh, boy.

Me, too.

He's the man of the house.

Is that so?

There he is.

See you.

Hey, buddy.

-How's school?

-Good.

Yeah, what happened?

I showed everybody

my new football cards.

Yeah? Did they like them?

Yeah, I needed a QB,

so I traded Hank Willis.

-Cool.

-Sam Roger's cards.

They're really cool.

-What's going on with your arm?

-Nothing.

Why do you keep

scratching it like that?

-I don't know.

-Stop scratching.

Let me look at it.

Oh, my God, Garrett.

This is really bad.

What the hell

do you want?

I, uh...

-Spit it out!

-John--

John Leroy.

Attorney at law.

You, uh,

You called me...

about the men

who are harassing you.

You have been traveling on

and off for the better part

of the past year.

You missed your

son's birthday.

Your mom went

to the hospital twice.

Who do you think

went to visit her?

This was expected.

It's my first year heading

the company for Christ's sake.

I have to show them

what I've got.

Oh, please, they know

who they hired.

Connie, this is science...

that's saving the world.

Wait. We're making broccoli

with three times the vitamin C.

-Bananas with vaccines

for Hepatitis.

-Jesus!

It's a tough job.

It takes time.

It takes face time.

You know who could use

some face time? Your son!

Can-- Can we at least

talk about this?

Okay, okay.

That's enough, Mom.

Oh, come on.

It's breakfast

in a tub.

More milk!

He's asking for more milk.

As a mother, you're never

going to hear that again.

Hey! It said he's supposed

to sit in the tub

for half an hour

with the oatmeal

and the milk.

Okay. Well, I just--

I washed all his sheets

and clothes and stuff,

in case there's something

that irritated his skin.

He's gonna be fine, honey.

He's a kid.

Kids get sick.

Don't be such

a worrywart.

Hey! There's something

in my oatmeal!

I've taken him

to the doctor

two more times.

I even took him

to a dermatologist.

I mean, it's cost me a fortune,

but what am I gonna do?

I can't just let him sit

there when he's like this,

you know?

Of course not.

You gotta do something.

It's just nobody...

can figure out where

the rash is coming from, Tammy,

like, he hasn't

played in poison ivy,

you know, none of the other

kids at school have it.

You think it's that

new flu?

I don't know.

I don't know.

The symptoms seem different.

All his soaps

and shampoos

are the same?

Yeah, I haven't

changed anything.

He eats the same stuff,

he wears the same clothes,

he plays with the same toys.

Have you cleaned the house

with any new products

or anything like that?

No.

We haven't even had

the exterminator come, 'cause

we're trying to save money.

Jeez, that's frustrating.

It's just--

I mean, I'm just

at a loss, you know?

Now he's saying

his arms hurt.

Feel all funny.

-God, okay.

-I just... my baby.

-I know. I know.

Okay, calm down.

It's gonna be okay.

It's gonna be okay.

Hold on one second.

Okay?

Charlie's.

How can I help you?

Oh, God. Okay. Okay.

Thank you, bye.

Soph, you gotta

get home. Now! Go!

My arm! My arm!

What is wrong?

What is wrong?

He was freaking out

about his arms.

I didn't know what to do.

Let's go. We're going

to the emergency room.

Let's go. Come on, baby.

My arm!

-Grab my purse!

I got it!

Don't worry.

Everything is fine.

I gave him a small

dosage of Ativan

to calm him down.

Okay, and what about

his chest and arms?

It seems to just

be getting worse.

We won't know anything until

we get the lab results back,

ma'am.

Worse-case scenario,

it's the onset of

an unusual skin disorder,

or a parasite of some sort,

which is not totally uncommon,

but I doubt it.

Has your son been in contact

with any animals?

Uh, not that

I'm aware of.

I mean,

unless he was at school,

but I don't think so.

Any history of disease

in the family?

I have diabetes.

Okay. Well, that shouldn't

have anything to do with it.

I would recommend

a dermatologist.

We've been, and he gave

him a cream to help the itching.

It hasn't done anything.

Well, we took a blood sample.

So, we'll send that to the lab

to get tested.

Then call you as soon

as we get the results.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

Going to trial will cost you,

most likely, more than you can

afford,

with no definitive outcome

in your favor and it could

last years.

I see you're a glass

half full kind a guy.

Look, in the last 20 years,

Clonestra has sued more than

800 family farms

over patent infringement.

They've got the money

and the muscle to win.

How do you patent life?

I mean, honestly.

It's hard to wrap

your head around,

I know.

But in the early '80s,

the courts ruled living

organisms

that have been genetically

altered were eligible for

patent protection.

I mean--

I mean, that's crazy.

Crazy as it may be,

I advise a settlement.

It seems to me to be

the most financially

sound solution.

And what would that mean?

They would pay you a small sum,

in order to avoid trial,

and in return, you agree to use

their seeds moving forward and

pay them an annual percentage.

Like the hell if I do that!

If fact, I want to countersue

them, for harassment.

These damn GMO cops come

to my home before dawn,

snooping.

They even got my neighbors

spying for them.

They give them a special

800 number to call

if they see anyone

reusing seeds.

-I'm sorry.

-I'll never use

their monster seeds.

I worked too hard to keep

my organic certification

all these years.

And this is America...

and I deserve

my constitutional freedom.

So, look, what would

you like to do?

They can bleed me

all they want,

but I ain't giving in.

What on earth

are you doing?

Hey, what about

bed bugs?

Remember Cathleen,

she was itching and

scratching for months

and looked in

her mattress,

saw 'em crawling.

Then we'd all

be itching, too.

I can't see anything

on the outside, but they

could've just hatched, you know?

Might not be

a full-blown infestation yet.

What are you doing?

Sophie! Sophie!

It's gotta be bed bugs.

I'm telling you.

Okay? I don't know

what else it could be.

The doctor called and said

all the results came back

negative.

-Will you stop it? Stop it!

Get off of me.

I know they're here!

There is nothing there!

They are small!

You can't see them!

-Put those down now!

-We have to check

everything, everywhere!

-Put 'em down now!

-The chairs, the couch...

-You are out of--

-...your bed, my bed--

Get your hands off of me,

I said, let me look!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Just... Just take a breath.

You're jumping to every

conclusion you can drum up.

You're not an expert.

The doctors

know what to do.

The doctors just say,

"It'll be fine."

"Everything's going to be fine.

Just give him more antibiotics

and it'll go away."

But it's not going away.

Antibiotics take time.

The doctors are lazy

and I refuse to be

a lazy parent.

We have a little money

left in our savings.

I want to take him to a

specialist. I don't care what it

costs.

Let's go.

The blood work rules out

the majority of conclusions

I would draw from his symptoms.

You're saying my son

is making it up?

I don't think he's making it up

entirely. Clearly,

he has a bad rash.

But the hysteria could be

linked to this rare condition

where people falsely

believe their skin to be

infested with bugs.

Is that like paranoia?

Exactly. It's a psychological

disorder, Miss Kessler,

where the patient can often

cause the symptoms themselves.

Can I ask, is there

any history of mental

illness in your family?

Yes, my father.

Well, there are

genetic traits.

Have you yourself ever had

any delusional episodes?

When I was younger.

But they went away.

-Excuse me.

-Hi.

-Can I help you?

-Yes.

Sorry to just

walk in like this.

My name is Sophie Kessler.

My mom actually works for

Dean Owens.

Do you mind if I--

No, please.

How can I help you?

Well, my son, um...

has a really... bad rash...

and, um--

So, I guess, I was just

wondering if you could, maybe,

tell me a little bit about

genetic modification

or GMOs or whatever,

just 'cause I know that's

a big part of the research that

you do here, at this school.

-Sophie?

-Yeah.

-I'm Dean Richard Owens.

-Oh, hi.

Hi, your mom told me

you'd be stopping by today.

You want to step

into my office?

Oh! Yeah, yeah.

Right this way.

Thank you.

So, I looked it up online

and I found this thing that

said there was a theory

that it could be connected

to genetically modified food,

and, you know, like a lot

of the sufferers were people

who lived near GM fields

and I know we do, so...

Ah, the Internet,

a bastion of trusted science.

Right.

I know, I just--

Genetically modified seeds

are what help children,

not hurt them.

The research we're doing here

for Clonestra has made rice

so rich in vitamin A,

that it has saved thousands

of children in India

from going blind.

Wow.

I didn't know that.

Well, there's a lot

you don't know.

-Excuse me, Sophie.

My name is Peter. I work

in the lab and I overheard

some of your conversation...

and I think

I can help you.

So we should talk,

but not here.

Just... make sure

you aren't followed.

That's the whole basis

of bio-technology.

It's changing the DNA

to improve it,

to create plants that

are bigger, stronger,

insect-repellent.

Right, yeah.

Dean Owens was saying that

they're saving children all over

the world because of it.

Not yet, they're not.

I mean, they could,

don't get me wrong.

They're just not there yet.

You see, when you're inserting

the material from viruses into

an organism,

you're going to get

complications.

Complications, like...?

Okay, so in the '90s,

when GMOs were like,

flooding the market,

food-related

illnesses doubled.

Now is that a coincidence?

I don't think so.

Now, almost 90% of corn,

and more than 90%

of soy beans that are planted

in the United States

are genetically engineered.

So it's just

in everything.

Exactly.

And, you know,

when you change

the DNA of our food,

you open up the possibility

for all kinds of new allergies.

Is that what you think

my son has?

It's like an allergic

reaction or something?

Children's immune systems,

they're much more vulnerable

than ours.

I mean, you see...

none of these genetically

engineered crops have been

tested on humans.

Why not?

Because the corporations

are self-regulated.

They hold no

independent studies.

With all this

lobbying cash at hand,

Washington deregulated

all the crops,

so they don't have to do

tests longer than 90 days,

or release the raw data

of their studies.

They are the authority

on the science.

You get it?

It's remarkable what

you guys are doing.

Thank you.

I think we're close

to a real achievement here.

Well, almost.

We're a little ways off.

We're really happy

with your work.

Thank you.

Thank you, sir.

Jacob here tells me

you like cars.

I do.

Well, we wanted to give you

a little something as a token

of our appreciation.

Why don't you go and get

your car a little upgrade.

Okay, okay.

But what about, um,

scientists who don't work

for the corporations.

There are a few, but

don't have the money

or resources to be

taken seriously.

So their studies

are mostly discredited.

Okay, but those Clonestra

studies. I mean, could you

help me see those?

See them? No.

They're probably in a vault...

at Clonestra headquarters.

They do have an office

at the university.

And do they keep

files there, too?

Yes, for, you know,

the studies that they

finance through the school.

But I don't have access

to that, and even if I did,

I wouldn't go near it.

I don't, um...

How can there not be

any other independent

studies that matter?

We're the guinea pigs, Sophie.

And your son

is the independent study.

We're closed.

Doesn't say "closed."

That's 'cause I haven't

turned the sign yet.

Hi.

I'll turn it for you

if I can have a cup

of coffee.

I'll just keep looking

into it, you know?

See if I can find

any answers.

Hey, I'd do the same thing

if my kid was sick.

Hard raising a kid

on your own.

Yeah.

It must be for you, too.

Yeah.

This place have anything

stronger than coffee?

No. Charlie doesn't

believe in it.

Family restaurant

and all that.

�When do you need

a drink more than when you're

with your family?

Yeah.

So, what do you say?

Let's go get a night cap

somewhere else. My treat.

Uh, no. I don't...

I don't think so.

Come on. How many hours

you been on your feet?

Oh, I've been on my feet

since I was born.

There you go. Then what are

you talking about? Let's go.

No, I'm just-- Yeah.

I'm actually

three years sober.

Oh.

Oh, um...

I'm sorry. I...

-Feel like an ass.

-No, it's okay.

There's no way

for you to know.

But that's great.

Yeah. No, it's good.

I mean, it wasn't good

for a while, and then...

then it got

really bad...

and that's why my mom

kind of took over.

I mean, she had to.

Yeah, you're lucky

you have her.

More lucky Garrett has her.

He's pretty much the only

reason I'm alive, so...

Well, you gave him life.

The least he could do

is return the favor.

Hi, my name is Sophie Kessler.

I was just wondering if you

could tell me a little bit

about your minimum

basic coverage plan.

This is the supplemental

health insurance department.

Can I put you on hold and then

transfer you to the individual

medical department?

Okay.

Ma'am, can I

please put you on hold?

Yeah, I'll hold.

Yeah, no. I was just--

Wanted to know about

just the premiums.

Okay, this is--

It's an emergency.

So, the circumstances

are actually--

It's not a pre-existing

condition, correct?

Yeah, so I need to know--

Well, no, I missed...

the open enrollment...

-but I-- No, because--

-Okay. You need to apply

for a special enrollment--

Can you please not

actually transfer me?

-Please hold.

-Okay.

Hello?

Hi, is this

Prairie Organic Farms?

Is this what?

I'm looking for

Prairie Organic Farms.

Prairie Organic Farms?

No, I don't--

I don't know about that.

What number

were you calling?

Hi.

I'm just looking to buy

some organic food.

Huh! What are you?

Some kind of decoy?

Excuse me?

You work for them.

Who?

Ah, don't play games

with me, lady.

The GMO cops keep

coming on my land.

I don't-- I'm sorry,

I don't know what

you're talking about.

Oh, they're really good.

Hey, so what do you

want me to show you?

Would you like to see where

all the seeds are hidden?

I think there's been

some miscommunication.

See, I'm here because

I think my son might be sick...

because of GMOs.

I just feel like I need to feed

him something nutritious

while he's on

all these antibiotics.

Yeah. Doctors dole out

that crap like it's candy.

They don't even know

what it is he's got, but...

I mean, I just don't know

what else to give him.

Well, you figure,

it's the food he's eating.

It's one possibility.

I'm not sure.

Hell, I got my organic

certification 30 years ago.

Yeah. Now...

well, I may be organic,

but this is farm country.

Look here.

You know, I got 25-foot buffer

between this GMO farm and mine,

you know?

I'm surrounded by

conventional farms,

that are not only putting

pesticides in the plants

we're eating, but they're...

they're spraying chemicals

in the air we breathe.

What happens when it rains?

I mean, how toxic is that crap

that's coming down

in our atmosphere.

You get what I mean?

Yeah.

-Shut it down.

-Dammit.

Mom. Mom.

-I need you to look at my arm.

-What?

-What is it?

-It has...

Look at my arm. There's...

There was something

on my arm.

What did you do?

Did you scratch yourself?

No, there was...

There was something...

arm before.

It looked...

What happened?

What is it?

No, it's okay.

It's nothing.

It's nothing.

It's okay.

It's nothing.

It's nothing.

-You have a minute?

-Come in.

I got good news.

The FDA is close to pushing

through our approvals

on the ABN transgene.

You're kidding?

I'm straight as an arrow.

So they managed

to work out

all the kinks?

It's ready to go.

This is a major

breakthrough, Dan.

Hi!

Mom?

Garrett?

Mom!

Guys, we're very grateful

for your work.

We truly are.

But the research

is no longer

yours to explore.

Uh, with all due respect,

we found the marker gene.

Yes, and with all

due respect, we own

the patent.

But we started the research

at the university.

-Serge--

-Exactly. Started.

You see, after we gave you

your grant, in case you didn't

read the fine print,

you signed over

your patent rights.

No, we didn't.

Did we?

Serge, we own 80%

of the bio-tech patents

in this country.

You willingly shared

the information from

your trials

and you were well

compensated for it.

-Uh, Jeff, it's been

a pleasure working with you--

-One second, look.

We engineered this virus

and it may have reconstituted.

It maybe active.

I highly doubt that.

But you don't understand,

we're talking about--

I'm sorry. I am.

Please, pack up all your

files by the end of the week.

Your work here is done.

Congratulations.

Your mother has

a minor concussion

and her blood sugar levels

are through the roof.

Yeah, she must've just

forgotten her insulin shot.

Is she gonna be okay?

We're gonna need to keep her

for at least a few days,

to monitor her progress.

Mom...

what happened?

I don't know.

She had ice cream.

Oh, come on.

I told you to stop

eating that crap.

Please don't mother me.

Well, you refuse to change.

Well, that's one of the perks

of being an adult.

I am who I am.

I am trying

to help you, Mom.

Just help Garrett.

I'll take care of myself.

Ain't nothing I could do.

Where'd they come from?

I told you.

The seeds company.

How'd you figure?

I don't know.

I mean, they sell both

GMO and non-GMO seeds.

They must've

cross-contaminated them,

and they got mixed with my plot.

Look, it ain't my fault.

I didn't--

I didn't ask for this.

Look, I'm sorry

to have to tell you this.

But how the GMOs got

onto your land isn't

our concern,

it's the fact

that they're here.

This farm has been

in my family for five

generations.

Five generations.

Thrity years, I've worked

to make an organic farm

and the mistake of one seed

company has poisoned it all?

It doesn't make sense.

I'm sorry.

It's all I got.

I can barely

pay the lawyer

to fight these people,

it's all I got.

Sir... I'm just doing my job.

Now it's not that we don't

care about farmers,

but we have to preserve

our relationship

with our consumers.

It's all I got.

Let's see what we got.

No, that's not good.

That... shouldn't even be here.

Oh, these are...

These are definitely bad.

I want French fries.

Corn syrup, I remember that.

Let me get that. No.

I'm going to find you

something else.

I just need to, uh...

I want French fries.

You're not getting

French fries today, okay?

I'm going to find you

something else!

Just give me a minute.

Bill pile?

Yeah. Bill pile.

I'm sorry, Mommy.

Hey...

This is not

your fault, okay?

Okay.

None of this

is your fault.

-Okay.

-You hear me?

Yes.

I'm not disagreeing with you.

In fact, there have been

a number of class action

lawsuits against Clonestra,

but they have been

in regards to the nuclear

and the chemical plants.

And those cases,

have mostly been settled.

Okay, and why not

their food?

Well, with Clonestra's

production of agent orange,

for example,

if the people in the town

where the plant is based

have an overwhelming

propensity towards cancer,

it can be directly correlated

to the plant producing known

carcinogens.

Okay, and if my son

has a rare disease

that can be traced

back to GM food,

how is that

any different?

Because GM foods in this

country do not require

labeling.

So, from a legal standpoint,

it would be incredibly

difficult

for you to prove an illness

and trace it back

to the GM process.

And you can't prove

that the food your son

consumed was GM.

At this point, your case

is intriguing,

but it's all based

on conjecture.

You're going to need

hard evidence for it to stand

in a court of law.

Come on, Tommy, be nice.

He's not contagious.

All right. I'll only be

a couple of hours, okay?

-Yeah, no problem.

-Thank you.

Can I ask what it is

that you're doing?

-I'm gonna nail 'em.

-Nail who?

Clonestra. I can get access

to the lab reports and prove

the food is toxic.

What are you

talking about?

Sophie!

Hey!

Come on, boys.

You said you know

where the records are,

the reports that can prove

the seeds are unsafe?

Yeah, but it's a little

more complicated than that.

I mean, you can't just

walk in and take 'em,

there's like...

-security, the keys--

-Like these?

Where did you get those?

My mom works for the dean.

Okay. Wow.

Please. I'm desperate, okay?

I...

I need hard evidence

and this is... my only

hope right now.

You in or not?

Janitor's entrance.

It's over here.

Here. Here.

-Shit, it's not here.

-Freeze.

Oh, God.

My mom has been secretary

to the dean for over 20 years.

She's sick,

which makes her crazy, so...

You know, she hasn't missed

a day since I was 16.

So you're saying

she sent you?

Well, she said that

if she had her files,

maybe she could do

work from home,

and so I offered

to get them.

She gave me her keys.

So why'd you

bring the guy?

Uh, he's a scientist

at the university.

I would've had no idea

where her files were.

So, I asked him

to come with me.

Sit tight.

So your story checks out.

Unfortunately,

your friend's doesn't.

I'm sorry?

Peter Landow is not

a scientist at the university.

What do you mean?

He's a janitor.

Mr. Hardy, your company

contracts over 5,000 broiler

farms across the country.

About how long does it take

your chickens to reach market

weight?

On average, 16 to 17 weeks.

Clonestra is developing

genetic technology

that causes rapid muscle

growth in broiler chickens.

Our chickens can reach

market weight in five weeks.

What is that?

Some kind of divine

intervention?

Genetic modification

is nothing new.

We have been cross-breeding

plants for millennia.

Where do you think we get

broccoli or cauliflower,

cabbage from?

It all comes from one species

of wild mustard

that humans crossbred through

traditional genetic mutation.

Our modern methods

are just more precise.

What exactly

are those methods?

All you need to understand

are three things:

efficiency, better production,

and more profit.

Here, take your time

to read this over.

You can sign it

whenever you're ready.

He was a scientist.

He had a psychological

breakdown in 2001.

-Like I said, there's a lot

of crazy people out there.

-Hold on. Look at this.

Peter Landow was in the midst

of breakthrough biotechnology

research,

but due to mental instability,

was removed from his post.

Doesn't mean

he was wrong.

Definitely colors his research.

Hold on, I gotta show you

these articles I printed up

at school.

Hold on.

Look at this.

There are all these

other parents...

talking about their kids

having similar symptoms.

They don't know where

they're coming from either.

You know what?

I'm not the only one.

-And then--

-Sophie, please.

Just take a break, okay?

You've gotten yourself

into enough trouble.

Sorry.

My dad...

had a mental breakdown, so...

I just get kind of

worked up about

these things.

It's okay.

Did he get help?

No. He ended his life.

-Oh.

-When I was 16.

Sorry.

It was a long time ago.

-Sorry.

-Sorry, I didn't--

Sorry, no, no. It's, uh...

I'm sorry.

I just haven't been

with anyone, you know, since...

I had Garrett, so...

No, it's okay. I understand.

I haven't been with anyone

for a while either, so...

Where's his, uh...

His dad?

Don't know.

If you don't wanna talk--

If--

It's okay.

We were just really young,

you know, high school

sweethearts and...

he got recruited to be

a QB at Ohio and just...

He got caught up

in all that, so...

Where'd you get

this piece of paper?

Jacob, you know

this isn't bulletproof.

This university used to get

most of its scientific funding

from the USDA.

Now it gets it

from corporations,

so we adjust.

I have been doing research

for Clonestra on and off

for the last 15 years,

starting with the first variety

of corn in 2002,

and I found things

that were not within

their line of questioning.

What did you find?

That doesn't matter.

The kind of research that

you want to do, it's a hard

sell no matter where you are.

This is a different landscape.

What the fuck is this?

Looks like a drawing.

Where did you get

this stationary?

Oh! I...

Who knows?

I...

I don't know.

That could be from anywhere.

They own half this town.

Did you really drive

all the way over here

to ask me that?

Where's Garrett?

He's in the car.

Oh, my God.

What?

You work for them.

No.

-Sophie--

-You were following me

in that car. It's the same car.

I can explain.

Okay, just--

I thought I was

going crazy.

You're one of them.

You're one of those

GMO cops?

-Sophie--

-Peter knew where

those files were

and you warned them

I was coming.

You warned them

to move the files.

No! I didn't!

Listen, I didn't! Sophie--

I didn't. I was just trying--

I was just trying to do--

Please, come in.

Thank you.

So, Jeff tells me

you're having some problems

with your associate?

Serge.

Hi. I'd like to request

a restraining order.

Okay. Please have a seat.

Someone will be with you.

Okay, come on.

Sit down.

Ma'am?

Ma'am!

Go play with your cars.

What are we doing, Mommy?

Just going to stay inside

for a little while, okay?

Okay.

No more running around

talking to strangers, okay?

Okay.

Okay.

Just play with your cars.

All right.

I'm calling it a day.

Listen, can you clean up

that chicken coop before

you leave?

Clonestra wants us to have

everything all neat and tidy...

when we wrap things up.

Sure.

See you tomorrow, Hot Rod.

Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit!

Shit.

Jesus!

Hey, I was just

going to call you.

-You forgot your keys?

-Yeah.

I was sending

my report on your desk,

so I'm sitting there.

Before I was born, Bob,

you had to put up with him.

Hi.

Excuse me. Hi.

Is Hal here?

I'm sorry. He isn't.

Okay.

Well, can you tell him

that I stopped by?

Yeah, I can't do that.

My father had

a heart attack

two days ago.

Is he okay?

I'm afraid he's not. He, uh...

He didn't make it.

I'm so sorry.

So, you don't remember?

No, I'm sorry.

Are you sure?

She was here because

her son was sick, a bad rash,

-spoke to Richard

for a while.

-No, I'm sorry.

I just don't remember.

Thanks.

But you know I'm just

filling in for Kristin

while she's out sick.

I know she has

a daughter with a son.

Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Hello?

Hi, is this Kristin?

No, who's this?

Is this Kristin's daughter?

Who's asking?

My name is Serge Nigani.

I work at

the science department

at the university.

I'm sorry,

I can't talk to you.

But...

I have some information

that I think would be helpful--

I was burned by one of

you guys before and I got

into a lot of trouble for it,

so please, I can't

talk to you right now.

Okay, okay. Wait, I just--

Please, I cannot talk to you.

I am done with all that.

Do not ever call here again!

Who was that, Mommy?

It was--

It was nobody, baby.

Okay.

Go to your room.

Come on, I'm starving.

Who's going to Gino's?

Again? Dude, for an Irish guy,

you eat a lot of pizza.

What am I supposed to eat

fucking potatoes all day?

Come on, I'm hungry.

Just got off the phone

with corporate.

What's going on?

What's up?

Nothin' big.

I only need one of you.

-Eddie. Come on.

-Nah, I'm good.

What you mean you're good?

Since when do you

turn down a handout?

Since now.

What you got something

better to do?

Come on. I need

the money, man.

I'll do it.

Damn right, you'll do it.

Some of us got

kids we gotta feed.

Later. Still stopping

at Gino's on the way though.

Whoo! Come on, baby!

I'm gonna get up

on him right here.

Hold on. Hold on to your tits!

Do it! Do it! Do it!

What's going on?

Hey, we just want to pass!

-Shit.

-Dude, go back. Go back.

-Oh, shit.

-Go back. Go back.

Oh, fuck!

Fuck, no, this wasn't

supposed to happen.

Man, we were just supposed

to fuck with him, man!

Back in the car, man.

Get back in the car.

We gotta get outta here.

You're not sleeping?

Well, how about I

tell you a story?

Once upon a time...

there was a little boy

who lived on a farm.

There were goats and...

chickens and cows--

You've told this story before.

Oh, well--

You tell the same

story every time.

This was the...

story that my daddy

used to tell me when

I couldn't sleep.

Try... Try saying

something different.

Who is it?

Don't-- don't move.

Don't move!

I said who's there?

It's your mother!

Open the damn door!

What happened?

You were supposed to pick me

up from the hospital.

The nurse said

she called you.

What time is it?

Doesn't matter.

I took a cab.

Been drinking?

Soph, sweetie...

when was the last time

you left the house?

I don't know.

Garrett, buddy.

You hungry?

No.

He won't eat.

His stomach hurts.

Here. Eat that.

I can't.

What's going on?

I don't feel right, Mom.

I feel like...

I've been having

delusions again.

Now I'm afraid that

what Garrett's having, too...

that's what Dad had.

Hey!

You're not your father.

How do you know?

There has been

a development in the car crash

on Interstate 35 last night.

Police have identified

the victim as Serge Nigani,

a researcher

at the state university.

He was pronounced

dead upon impact.

-We will have more details--

-Wait.

What did they say

his name was?

Serge Nigani.

-Oh, my God.

-What?

He called me.

What are you talking about?

He called me. He called

and asked to speak to me

and I hung up on him.

Okay, relax.

Why was he calling you?

I don't know. He said--

He said he wanted to talk

to me about something important

and that he was

a scientist at the university.

But why would

he call you?

Maybe he had something

important to tell me--

Something about...

Garrett, I mean, like,

where's the phone?

Oh, Sophie, please.

No more conspiracy theories.

You don't think there's

some connection?

There's some reason

he called me?

-Sophie, I think--

-I'm so stupid.

I should've just talked to him.

-There has to be a reason.

Where is his number?

-Can you please stop?

Enough!

You're not well.

You're acting paranoid.

You said it yourself.

You're having delusions.

I've seen it all before.

I was married to it.

I think you should...

go back on your

medication...

for your sake

and for Garrett's.

No!

-Shh! It's okay.

It's okay.

Wake up. Wake up, honey.

Wake up.

-It's okay, Mommy.

-It's just a dream.

Just a bad dream.

I promise you.

Yeah.

That's it.

That's good.

Are you okay?

Yeah. Just a bad dream.

Where are you going?

I've to take care of something.

I'll be back.

I'm not sure that's

a good idea just yet.

His grandfather was

a farmer in India.

He would spend every

summer on that farm

as a kid.

But then one summer,

his grandfather started

using the GM seeds.

All the farmers did

in his village.

And what happened?

They were bankrupted.

Their crops died...

and were destroyed

and they had nothing left.

They drank the pesticides

in protest.

Jesus! And...

those were

the Clonestra seeds?

When Surge was offered the job

to do research for them through

the university,

he was obviously

conflicted.

But he felt like, maybe

he could be the one

to improve the science.

In his grandfather's honor.

I just don't understand

how this could've happened.

He's never gotten into one

accident his whole life.

It's terrible.

I, um...

I didn't get

to talk to him

before he left.

I was working

an all-nighter

at the hospital.

Did he call

or say anything?

No. No note or anything.

But, um...

But there was

one strange thing.

What?

In the garage...

he took the spare tire

out of his car.

You have any idea where

he was headed before

the accident?

No.

Where's his car now?

They took it to the scrap

metal yard after it was

destroyed in the crash.

Okay.

Oh, my God.

What is it?

What does it say?

My address.

Come on,

come on, come on.

Hi, I'm looking

for a white Camaro.

Do you have an appointment?

No, but I have the key.

I'm sorry, but you have

to have an appointment.

Please. This is very,

very important.

I'm sorry. You'll just

have to come back.

Ma'am, please. Look at me.

I'm begging you. Please.

Everybody is going

to lunch now.

If you would just

please-- Hey!

You can't go back there!

Hey!

-Yeah?

-So sorry. Thank you.

Yeah. You need something?

Can I just get in that car?

Yeah.

You got a hell

of an arm!

I watch a lot of football.

Ah! I gotta find

something here.

Where would the spare

tire be in this car?

Uh, usually they're

right over here.

Find what you're looking for?

Yes!

Good.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

I just can't believe it.

I don't understand why

Richard would allow these

testings to be shelved.

Well, for one thing,

he's on Clonestra's

board of directors.

Mmm. That's why the wing.

That's why a lot of things.

Hey, kiddo...

I'm sorry I didn't

have more faith in you.

Thanks, Mom.

It's weird, you know.

My whole life,

I never really knew

what I wanted to be.

Like even in kindergarten,

everyone had all these...

crazy dreams to be

like the president

or a veterinarian and...

I just never did.

You like sports.

Yeah, but I could

never play them.

I was always just watching,

you know?

And now I just

feel like I've...

I don't know, like I've been

just sitting in the bleachers

watching my whole life go by.

Why don't we give these

reports to the newspaper?

No.

Clonestra could--

Their PR could crush a story

this damaging.

I just...

No.

Are you expecting someone?

No.

Put all the piles away.

Put 'em in the closet

or something.

Who is it?

It's Eddie.

Go away!

I need to talk to you.

I said go away!

I'm not interested.

Please, it's important.

Eddie, don't make me

call the police.

Just give me a minute.

You're a fucking liar

and an accomplice.

He's sick.

Sophie...

my son, Tommy...

he's sick.

Do you believe me now?

So?

You were one of those assholes

who goes and bullies people

Clonestra doesn't like.

I was, yes.

They recruited me

from the police force.

It was better hours.

Better pay.

But I hated it.

I felt like I went from helping

people to hurting people.

And now what?

I'm quitting.

Well, I want to help.

I want to make this right.

How do you

want to do that?

Excuse me, sir, I'm here

for the press conference.

You just want to go

out those doors--

Oh, shoot!

Oh, here, here,

let me help you with that.

Oh, look at that.

There's so much stuff.

Just like my wife,

carrying all that stuff.

I don't know what

she doing with it.

Oh, thank you so much.

Oh, my goodness.

I have enough pens

here to write a book.

A few doors down.

-Eddie.

-Hey! Uh--

You're late, man.

Come on.

You are on farmer duty.

Room 1016. You gotta make

sure everybody's got their...

credentials in order.

Who is this?

Um-- She's with--

I'm supposed to meet

my husband here.

He's a poultry farmer.

Security told me room 1016.

I want my daddy.

-All right. Eddie.

-Yeah.

Show 'em up

to the room.

Test. Test.

Hello, ladies and gentlemen.

In just a few moments,

we're going to get started.

Thank you for your patience.

Where's Dan?

He's just finishing up

with the poultry guys

upstairs.

New York Times has

to take off in 30 minutes.

This has to happen now.

This is just

the beginning, Mr. Hardy.

I hope so, Mr. Conway.

I really appreciate you

bringing so many of your

contracted farmers here today.

It helps to put a face

on announcements like these.

I'm proud to have so many

farmers with me because this

is really about the farmers.

Well, they're really

excited to meet you, sir.

-Where are they?

-They're in the conference

room, Mr. Conway.

I'm afraid we'll have to make

the meet and greet quick though.

We're running behind.

Let's get to it.

Hey.

Mr. Conway, the farmers

are actually in room 1026.

It's my mistake.

This way.

After you.

Here we are.

Dan!

You gotta come down right now.

We gotta start this

press conference or we're going

to lose our top reporters.

I need to meet with

the farmers first and we'll

all come down together.

I want them on stage with me.

I'll greet the farmers

and I'll bring them down

immediately.

You'll have enough people

to greet downstairs.

I'll get 'em on stage

with you, I promise.

Just go.

See you shortly.

I'll be right with you.

Who are you?

You're not Mr. Conway.

No, I'm not.

Now I asked you

a question.

Security!

Hey! Hey!

Hey! Hey! Security!

-Hey, just hold on.

-Security.

Get out of my way!

Hey! Security! Security! Hey!

Mr. Conway.

Mr. Conway!

I know what it's like

to feel helpless as a parent.

I was hoping that

I could speak with you...

about our children.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that,

ma'am, but I have a press

conference I need to attend.

-Go.

-Sir.

Where did you get this?

That doesn't matter.

What matters is what

you can do about it.

-Security! Grab her--

-Hold it.

What the hell is going on here?

Just give me a second.

-I've never been shown

these documents.

-Let me see.

I understand the corn

was long before your time.

But the chicken?

And that's some pretty

scary stuff. Do you really

feel that that's ready

to be sold

in supermarkets?

Well...

Look, I think modern industrial

farming helps farmers.

No!

With all due respect, modern

industrial farming helps you.

You are bleeding

farmers dry.

These studies were flawed.

They were early on

in our process. They used

rats prone to tumors.

They shelved the studies.

You know the first study

linking smoking to cancer

was published in 1950,

but it took almost 50 years

for the tobacco companies

to connect...

cigarettes to cancer,

to admit that

it was killing us.

Remind me, when was

the first GM crop

introduced on the market?

1996.

So by that model, we won't have

labels on GM food until, what,

2040?

I'm not willing to wait

that long, are you?

Dan, we have to get

out there now.

This is utter nonsense.

Allergy rates have increased

by almost 50% since GMOs were

introduced onto the market.

Conjecture does not prove

causality I'm afraid.

Yeah, I know, I'm not--

I'm not saying that.

I'm just saying, why not...

label the food then,

so that at least...

we have the freedom to know

what it is we're eating.

-I mean, what is there to hide?

-Nothing.

We completely support

voluntary labeling.

If that's what they want to do.

We just don't believe

in a federal mandate.

Then why are you suing states

who are trying to pass labeling

laws?

Look, Mr. Conway...

please...

I believe you are

a reasonable man.

It's time to start connecting

the dots. Money and...

politics and all that

other stuff aside.

What matters is our children,

and their children,

and their children's children

in the years to come.

It's okay.

Why wasn't I shown

these lab results?

As I said, they were

inconclusive and flawed.

-These were minor--

-Why wasn't I shown

these results?

Dan... this is classic

activist rhetoric.

She's hysterical.

She's a hysterical woman

with a sick son.

She has no arguments

that we haven't heard before.

Those tests were

disregarded for a reason...

as are the speculations

about the chicken.

That's all they are,

speculation.

It's not science.

The press is waiting.

In the meantime,

I'm going to make sure

this is all taken care of.

The first transgenic chicken

is headed to a supermarket

near you.

What sounds like

science fiction may just be

the way of the future.

Clonestra CEO

Dan Conway

has resigned

after only one year heading

the world's leading bio-tech

giant.

Do you have

a comment for the GM chicken?

Well, there's certainly

a lot to consider.

I've many questions.

I'm sorry, that's all

I can say for now.

Excuse me.

A surprising admission

that could set the world

of agri-business ablaze.

Could a viral video

be to blame?

And that report right there,

written by one of

your top scientists

proves that the food--

The showdown between

Miss Kessler and former

Clonestra CEO,

Dan Conway was all caught

on a camera phone,

by none other than her mother,

which already has 10 million

hits on YouTube.

The subsequent admission

from Clonestra

has reignited the debate

in Washington,

putting the spotlight

on the next congressional vote,

over whether to label

genetically modified food,

which could set a new legal

precedent come November.

d Welcome to my world d

d Won't you come on in? d

d Miracles, I guess d

d Still happen now and then d

d Step into my heart d

d Leave your cares behind d

d Welcome to my world d

d Built with you in mind d

d Knock and the door will open d

d Seek and you will find d

d Ask and you'll be given d

For the first time,

the government is considering

whether to allow

the sale of food

from a genetically

altered animal.

The FDA taking it up today.

A company has tinkered with

the genetic material of salmon,

so the fish can grow faster

and reach groceries sooner.

Are eaters ready?

d With my arms unfurled d

d Waiting just for you d

Let me ask you about

genetically modified food.

'Cause you hear

so much about it,

and I think people don't

quite understand what it means.

So if you genetically

engineer a new food,

and you change the molecular

structure of that food,

you can introduce a new protein

and sometimes a protein can be

a new allergen.

They're in 80% of the food

we eat, but some say genetically

modified organisms

pose serious health risks.

Some of the outrage was sparked

by these shocking photos

showing massive tumors

that developed on these rats

after they ate genetically

modified corn over their

lifetimes.

Today Azevedo's big worry

is keeping alfalfa hay,

the best feed

for producing milk

from being contaminated

by nearby genetically

modified or GMO crops.

If the alfalfa seed

gets contaminated,

we're out of business.

The contamination

happens when these seeds

drift from one farmer's

land onto another.

It's a dispute that has already

resulted in huge court battles

between conventional farmers

and bio-tech companies.

In the last 10 years,

farmers have sued for over

a billion dollars in losses.

Most of these crops

are engineered to withstand

glyphosate and so,

what we're finding now

is glyphosate is now

in our water supply.

We're seeing it show up

in breast milk of nursing

mothers.

And so I think, from

an environmental standpoint,

there is a real risk

involved here.

What you need to know is,

the FDA has actually never

made a conclusion,

except for the Flavr Savr

tomato, about the safety

of any of these crops.

All they do is they say

or perhaps the only

are on the market,

and so if you want to know

whether they're safe,

you have to do

the proper studies.

We haven't done that,

so it's like our population

is a guinea pig.

Here's what I'll do

as President,

I'll immediately implement

country of origin labeling

because Americans should know

where their food comes from.

We'll let folks know

whether their food has

been genetically modified

because Americans should

know what they're buying.
