Walter Kornbluth

I think her name's like victoria which i found interesting because later the boat that eugene levy is on is the victorious so i don't know why but anyway um yes he's not getting along with victoria because he doesn't love her and but she lives with him

yeah that's right now i remember that part i was like i kind of again i missed kind of parts of these when i recently re-watched it um But this is right where he, so now he is, well, he becomes, he finds this scientist, Walter Kornbluth.

On the beach.

Yeah, on the beach.

He's great.

Oh, I love it.

Eugene Levy plays Dr. Walter Kornbluth.

And he was born also in Ontario, Canada in 1946.

Meanwhile, there's a sort of academic argument about whether mermaids exist or not.

And this Dr. Kornbluth, played by Eugene Levy, is a sort of eccentric academic who is trying to prove the existence of mermaids.

Eccentric with a capital E.

Yes.

But who am I, Mark? Did you do a who am I?

I think I would be...

One of the other academics in the room that Kornbluth is initially humiliated in, thinking to myself that this is a crank.

This is a guy who is demeaning the field of serious study of... something or other but presumably not mermaids because that's what the contentiousness is so i'd be i'd be a po-faced marine biologist in that room
