"I'm afraid I can't help you much Peter. I don't know why they left. Or where they were going." He was about to drop a mug but Peter caught it in time.
"Good reflexes." Connors said, "Thank you." He handed him his coffee.
"We read your book." Jake spoke up, "it's something, you know. So you really think it's possible, cross-species genetics?" He asked.
"Of course. But for years Richard and I were mocked for our theories, not just in the community but at Oscorp as well." Connors started.

"Was lost?" Jake finished and Connors nodded, "I was angry. So I stayed away from you." He looked at Peter, "And your family and for that I'm truly sorry."
"Say... it worked, that you got it to work. Like how much would the foreign species take over?" Peter asked.
"Yeah what could the side effects be?" Jake added.
"It's hard to say considering no subject survived. The problem was always—" Connors was cut off by both of the boys, "The decay rate algorithm?" They say in unison.
