The Legacy of Radiation and Its Consequences

Rando Yaguchi: So Goro Maki hated the radiation sickness that took his wife's life with every fibre of his being. He hoped to find a way to render radioactive materials harmless.

Hiromi Ogashira: Well if something like that could be possible, than so too could the creation of new material. He must have feared the military would use it.

One of Yaguchi’s men: That certainly could have explained why he redacted the D.O.E. data.

Rando Yaguchi: Professor Maki hated radioactive materials, and possibly even anyone or anything who worked with him, and that includes Japan, which left his wife to die.

One of Yaguchi’s men: But then he leaves his data with a note that says "do as you please", what a strange guy.

Rando Yaguchi: But just what did Maki do in the end?

Meaning of Gojira in Shin Godzilla

Rando Yaguchi: God-zilla.

Kayoko Ann Patterson: That’s right. It’s the D.O.E.’s code name. Godzilla. He gave it an English name.

Rando Yaguchi: Gojira... What does it mean.

Kayoko Ann Patterson: A violent one, apparently that’s why you put “god” in the name that he gave it.

Rando Yaguchi: Japanese, the characters read Gojira.

Miscommunication on Creature's Threat Level

Prime Minister Seiji Okochi: [[Wikipedia:Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line|aqua line] Earlier in the day, both the ] and the Tama River Tunnel sustained significant damage. We're currently tracking the creature responsible as it moves up Anome River. We've yet dispositively identified what sort of animal it is, but we don't believe that it can come on land, but even though it is unlikely should it beach itself in the bay shallows, there's no need to fear, our experts believe that its own weight will crush it to death. I repeat, there's no danger of the creature coming ashore, so please set your minds in ease, thank you, that will be all.

One of Seiji Okochi's men: [he tells Seiji Okochi that the creature has gone ashore] Sir, sorry to interrupt.

Prime Minister Seiji Okochi: What? it has?

One of Seiji Okochi's men: Well well, no danger of coming ashore huh?

Prime Minister Seiji Okochi: Well now what, I was just proven a liar on TV.
