Part 2
- Must be all that girly sensitivity they wired into my DNA.†
Part 3
- The major industrial giant that seemed to be behind all the recombinant-DNA experiments; as well as the Re-Evolution Plan, also known as the By-Half Plan; and who knew how many other lunatic plans of mass destruction and mayhem.†
