Disclaimer I do not Own the Fosters.
Callie was in her fathers house with her nurse. Stef and Lena were there as well. They were all sitting in the living room waiting on Robert who was finishing up some paper work. Lena had looked up more information on the surgery before calling Robert who told them he would get his own information before giving his final say. Sophia came in with their dad right behind and sat next to Callie.
"What do you think?" asked Callie eager.
A stern look passed on Roberts face that made Callie lose some of her excitement. Lena wondered what his money found.
"I will agree to the training but I am against the surgery" said Robert.
"Why!" demanded Callie.
"Callie!" warned Stef.
"Callie as your father I want to have you best interests at heart of course but I am also a selfish bastard so those sometimes conflict" stated Robert.
"He is" joked Sophia.
"Ok but why are you saying no?" asked Stef.
"Because this surgery literally just became approved for human studies and Callie would be a test subject, it took them 10 years to get where it is, which so far for the rats involved was a 87% mortality until a year ago it dropped and stayed at a steady 28%" explained Robert.
"That's good!" said Callie.
"Callie do you really want to be some human guinea pig?" asked Lena.
"No but if they learn anything from my surgery they can use it to help other people" said Callie.
"No!, they want people to blindly sign up with cherry picked information to be the first human trails" stated Robert
"It's my body" stated Callie hoping that would strike a nerve.
"Callie you wanted more information and I provided it, I don't want you to die that's why I don't want you to do it" stated Robert.
"But you said there was a 28% mortality rate" said Callie/
"For rats, they haven't done human testing yet and that's why they were asking you" said Robert.
"Can I still do it if I wanted to?" asked Callie.
"That's between you and your mothers but I want nothing to do with it" said Robert with a sigh.
"So you won't even pay for it?" asked Callie angrily.
"Callie warned Stef.
Stef could see the anger on Callie's face and looking at Robert she could see that he was tired.
"Callie I'm sure they'll pay you, either as a success story to spread the word or to silence you or your moms should anything go wrong" explained Robert.
"Do you mean like death?" asked Callie.
"There are far worse fates then death" said Robert.
"Is any of this even legal?" asked Lena.
"As long as they have you sign some papers waving their liability sure it is, it's just the ethics involved" said Robert.
