And if we did-- And I'm not saying we should-- if we did, wouldn't suspicion fall on us? 如果我们这么做了,我不是说应该,只是假设,难道不会有人怀疑我们?
Not if the destruction appears to be caused by a natural disaster. 只要这个摧毁行动看起来像是由自然灾害造成的,就不会有问题。
You've always had something of a god complex, Malcolm. It's part of your charm. 你总是有点上帝情结,马尔科姆。这也算是你的魅力。
