“Perhaps enough to justify what we’ve done to him, but the jury’s still out on that since we were never entirely sure what side effects might be involved. Hunter might be right. I don’t mean schizophrenia, but it might well be that his brain has been through too much stress without fully healing. I warned you there was a risk of that—he very nearly died in that submersible in the Gulf of Mexico. In a horrible way.”
“There was no-one else.”
“I know, but now we ask him to face another submersible environment—even if he isn’t physically present—and add other factors that go beyond normal human understanding. Maybe in that sense he is like Travis Li—his brain simply can’t assimilate what he’s experiencing.” He looked up with a grim face. “It may be breaking down.”
Kierkegaard sucked in a bitter breath.
“God, I hope you’re wrong. We can’t possibly do without him, no matter what he says. It’s pure fantasy to think that Gage or Tamiko could take over. Without his. . . special abilities, months would not be long enough to get up to speed. We’ll be lucky if we have another week.”
“And getting Li back is out of the question. Even if he was willing to return,” the doctor offered, “my conscience wouldn’t let me do that to any man.”
“What do we do?” Kierkegaard asked finally, indecisive for the first time Bridges had ever seen. “Try psychotherapy?”
The other shook his head. “We try it his way. We put Tamiko and Gage through the simulator and. . . we hope he comes around on his own.” He raised his weary eyes and tried to smile. “We have two days.”
