Lamont gives a concerned look at that comment about plutonium. He knows enough about radioactive isotopes to recognize their dangers even though the element hasn't been discovered in his time yet. He carefully settles it onto a flat, stable part of the console and watches Watson curiously. There must be some radio frequency with which the android was accessing this information. He doesn't want to be rude but he'd be very curious to learn more about how he goes about such things at some point.
Watson's query returns with some information about a research lab in New London, and notes that there are only two in existence, and they were fabricated some years back as part of a space program initiative. The project fell through, but the sources couldn't be deactivated so they had been put into storage. Clearly, Moriarty has acquired one somehow, but the locations were never kept secret. They were easily located so that researchers could try to find new uses for them. The other, is kept on the far Western side of New London.
"It's a shame to see research abused like that." He shakes his head, though there's still a levity to the way Lamont speaks. "If it's all the same to you, I'd like to accompany the two of you to the facility."
Lamont felt it was obvious that would be the next step. They would need to head off any action from Moriarty, and since they already had one source, he would need another if he intended to attempt the same actions again. Considering the explosion, Lamont feels certain that there will be another attempt to succeed at whatever task Moriarty's set himself to, even if he's never met the man.
