〃No；　I　did　not　say　anything　to　him　about　it。　Im　sure　he　wouldnt　remember　if　I　did；　hed　go；　Did　you　say　that；　Beth？　I　suppose　you　might　have　mentioned　something　like　that；　yes。　。。。　〃

〃I　still　think　you　should　talk　to　him。〃

〃Norman；　youre　not　listening　to　me。〃

〃If　you　talked　to　him；　at　least　you　wouldnt　be　so　angry　about　it　now。〃

〃Shrink　talk；〃　she　said；　shaking　her　head。　〃Look；　Ted　does　whatever　he　wants　on　this　expedition；　he　makes　his　stupid　speeches；　whatever　he　wants。　But　I　go　through　the　door　first　and　Barnes　gives　me　hell。　Why　shouldnt　I　go　first？　Whats　wrong　with　a　woman　being　the　first；　for　once　in　the　history　of　science？〃

〃Beth…〃

〃…And　then　I　had　the　gall　to　turn　on　the　lights。　You　know　what　Barnes　said　about　that？　He　said　I　might　have　started　＇＇96＇＇　a　short…circuit　and　put　us　all　in　jeopardy。　He　said　I　didnt　know　what　I　was　doing。　He　said　I　was　impulsive。　Jesus。　Impulsive。　Stone…age　military　cretin。〃

〃Turn　the　volume　back　up；〃　Harry　said。　〃Id　rather　hear　Ted。〃

〃e　on；　guys。〃

〃Were　all　under　a　lot　of　pressure；　Beth；〃　Norman　said。　〃Its　going　to　affect　everybody　in　different　ways。〃

She　glared　at　Norman。　〃Youre　saying　Barnes　was　right？〃

〃Im　saying　were　all　under　pressure。　Including　him。　Including　you。〃

〃Jesus；　you　men　always　stick　together。　You　know　why　Im　still　an　assistant　professor　and　not　tenured？〃

〃Your　pleasant；　easygoing　personality？〃　Harry　said。

〃I　can　do　without　this。　I　really　can。〃

〃Beth；〃　Harry　said；　〃you　see　the　way　these　cables　are　going？　Theyre　running　toward　that　bulkhead　there。　See　if　they　go　up　the　wall　on　the　other　side　of　the　door。〃

〃You　trying　to　get　rid　of　me？〃

〃If　possible。〃

She　laughed；　breaking　the　tension。　〃All　right；　Ill　look　on　the　other　side　of　the　door。〃

When　she　was　gone；　Harry　said；　〃Shes　pretty　worked　up。〃

Norman　said；　〃You　know　the　Ben　Stone　story？〃

〃Which　one？〃

〃Beth　did　her　graduate　work　in　Stones　lab。〃

〃Oh。〃

Benjamin　Stone　was　a　biochemist　at　BU。　A　colorful；　engaging　man；　Stone　had　a　reputation　as　a　good　researcher　who　used　his　graduate　students　like　lab　assistants；　taking　their　results　as　his　own。　In　this　exploitation　of　others　work；　Stone　was　not　unique　in　the　academic　munity；　but　he　proceeded　a　little　more　ruthlessly　than　his　colleagues。

〃Beth　was　living　with　him　as　well。〃

〃Uh…huh。〃

〃Back　in　the　early　seventies。　Apparently；　she　did　a　series　of　important　experiments　on　the　energetics　of　ciliary　inclusion　bodies。　They　had　a　big　argument；　and　Stone　broke　off　his　relationship　with　her。　She　left　the　lab；　and　he　published　＇＇97＇＇　five　papers…all　her　work…without　her　name　on　them。〃

〃Very　nice；〃　Harry　said。　〃So　now　she　lifts　weights？〃

〃Well；　she　feels　mistreated；　and　I　can　see　her　point。〃

〃Yeah；〃　Harry　said。　〃But　the　thing　is；　lie　down　with　dogs；　get　up　with　fleas；　you　know　what　I　mean？〃

〃Jesus；〃　Beth　said；　returning。　〃This　is　like　The　girl　whos　raped　is　always　asking　for　it；　is　that　what　youre　saying？〃
