The great Howard Stark! I have heard much of your genius. It is a shame that you put your gifts towards creating such horrible weapons.
Midnight oil was not supposed to be a weapon, Dr. Fennhoff. Should never have been used.
And yet, it only exists because of you. Do you know what your creation does?
I saw it afterwards.
And I saw it while it happened. I was only spared because I had a gas mask to protect myself. My comrades were not so lucky. My brother wasn't so lucky. When I found him, he had no eyes. Pieces of his flesh had been bitten off. Can you imagine this?
I am sorry. You have no idea how sorry I am.
Since that day, I have thought of you often. In fact, you have been my singular focus.
Look, if you're gonna kill me, go ahead. I probably deserve it, but leave innocent people out of it.
I have no intention of killing you, Mr. Stark. I am going to make you suffer.
Please. Please don't do this.
You feel guilt? Remorse?
Yes, of course, I do.
I imagine you have done many things in your life that you regret. Hmm. A man such as yourself cannot allow kindness and empathy to cloud his vision.
I am not a bad person.
Yes. Yes, you are. It is the only way to achieve such remarkable success. Others have paid the price. You have paid the price, as well. Your guilt eats you, destroys you from the inside out.
