Botanist dragging a barrel of glowing green fluid across the tiles of the station floor

Security Chief: "Botanist! What the ABSOLUTE HELL are you doing with 50 liters of radium?"

Botanist: "Mutating the corn so it's blight and drought resistant"

Chief: "????"

Botanist: "I've also mutated a species of hobby lemon to fill itself with sugary lemonade instead of citric acid"

Chief: "Oh, holy crap okay go right ahead"
