## Dialogue

    Fujisaki: [referring to Goro's refusal to leave] Do you still insist?
    Goro Maki: Yes.
    Dr. Kusumi: We don't need any publicity.
    Goro Maki: Who said I was doing this for your publicity? I'm working for myself. The smell of a story...
    Fujisaki: The smell of a story?
    Goro Maki: Yes. The smell of a story attracts me. The readers will decide whether to read it or not. I report what I see.
    [Godzilla and Minya are close by]
    Goro Maki: Riko, I think they spotted us.
    Riko Matsumiya: No, it appears to be teaching its son.
    Goro Maki: Teaching its son? [Riko nods] It's teaching its son all right. And, he's teaching its son just like people teaching its children, just like a papa.
    Riko Matsumiya: Well, it is a papa, isn't it?
    Goro Maki: Well sure, but I wouldn't want one like that.
    Riko Matsumiya: Nor I, everything's relative I guess.
    Goro Maki: You're right.
