The story so far
Everything you need before watchingThe pile under the Chicago stadium has already gone critical, and Fermi shrugs it off as if Groves should have mentioned it. Szilard thinks a desert town will drive everyone mad. Back at Los Alamos, Personnel asks a Harvard chemist if she can type; Oppenheimer puts her on plutonium. Then Groves explodes over the Chicago visit. Condon has had enough of compartmentalization and quits on the spot. Watch Oppenheimer name the real hire: the left-wing past was the leash.
