Godfrey Hanson

• I have been convinced that this island has become the center of an invasion, the central landing point for beings from another planet.

Dialogue

Godfrey Hanson: If this heat goes on like this, it could very well drive us all insane. The human body simply isn't equipped to withstand such pressure, and sooner or later the glands are going to fail, some more quickly than others. After that, it's only a matter of time before the brain's affected.

Dr. Vernon Stone: That's a logical conclusion, but I think it's one we should keep to ourselves.
