"He's watching some old samurai movie with Li. It didn't really hold my interest, and Michael doesn't speak Chinese. Besides," Dara says, pulling out another piece of jerky. "Someone bet they could eat more than me. Bet me a cannister of jerky. Mmm mmmm... jerky," she says.
Michael makes a half hearted attempt to get the cannister, which Dara simply pulls out of reach. He ends up on his side. "Rrrrr... so... full..." he groans, though he still chews on the strip of meat in his mouth.

Boy those flowers are nice. Boy it's getting dark. Boy you should maybe talk to Master Wen if you are going to.

"No, no mind protection that I am aware of," Pavo says, listening to Straightjacket. "I'm afraid we don't keep spare freezer units like these around. Each of these contains far more than one substance, and each unit has a cost anywhere from ten million to a billion dollars."
When Sanjay mentions destroying Anaconda, Pavo summons one of the storage specialists and acts as interpreter. The two have a brief conversation. (Vince understands and Pavo does translate correctly)
"Opening the freezer for Anaconda requires the voiceprint and DNA authorization of Doctor Milan here, one of our three senior scientists on the facility and Ms. Vaile," Pavo translates. "That's some pretty heady security," Pavo says, obviously not expecting that. "Doctor Milan knows of no way to bypass the security short of cutting a billion dollar containment unit open."
Pavo seems unsure how to proceed. "Ms. Vaile had to know this security was in place," he says. "But I shall contact her at once and discuss this with her if you wish," he adds helpfully. Doctor Milan talks to Pavo again. "Doctor Milan also cautions against the use of energy and explosive powers or weapons, or anything that would interfere with the regulatory systems of the cannisters if at all possible. Hitting one of the containers could be very, very bad."

There is plenty of space in this room. Most containment units are well seperated from one another. All have manifests, though what the things listed are is way, way above your head. In fact, nearly all the gear here leaves you feeling kind of overwhelmed.
You could easily create illusions of containers, soldiers, robots, whatever you like, though it would take some time, and since most units are rather large, you probably could only create a handful of them, and they would be noticably closer together than the current units. You also notice that the walls are some sort of high grade steel, while the floor is concrete.
