== Behind the scenes ==
This is an example of the show using real science. Cyanogen can, in fact, be produced from hydrogen cyanide (also called "prussic acid" in the real world) via oxidation and an oxidizing agent such as oxygen or hydrogen peroxide.https://www.britannica.com/science/nitride#ref1002132
