Dropped

I stared at the screen for several moments, then turned to the scientist.


"So how is this creature going to 'destroy all our enemies' by laying in a tree and eating fruit?"


The scientist finally found his voice.


"I don't... We spent months torturing it, breaking it, it would snarl and attack anyone who came near it!"


I thought it over for a moment.


"And by anyone you mean all your fellow scientists and no-one else?"


"Well, some of your troops too."


"Anyone dressed like our enemies?"


"No?"


"Great, we just need our enemies to all wear lab coats then."
