1. This is the Earth at a time
when the dinosaurs roamed
Copy !req
2. a lush and fertile planet.
Copy !req
3. A piece of rockjust six miles wide
changed all that.
Copy !req
4. It hit with the force
of 10,000 nuclear weapons.
Copy !req
5. A trillion tons of dirt and rock
hurtled into the atmosphere
Copy !req
6. creating a suffocating
blanket of dust.
Copy !req
7. The sun was powerless to penetrate
Copy !req
8. for a thousand years.
Copy !req
9. It happened before.
Copy !req
10. It will happen again.
Copy !req
11. It's just a question of when.
Copy !req
12. Engineering director... Engineering...
Copy !req
13. - Say again, Rudy.
- Houston, affirmative.
Copy !req
14. I'm gonna try again.
Copy !req
15. This time
why don't we put in a hold at nine?
Copy !req
16. Cancel the pending resume.
Copy !req
17. Almost got it.
Copy !req
18. - Atlantis, I'm almost there.
- Houston, Pete's looking real strong.
Copy !req
19. Okay, Pete. We got that coupling
on the board here now.
Copy !req
20. We'll give you the go-ahead
from down here when it's in alignment.
Copy !req
21. Sounds good. Give me 10 seconds.
Copy !req
22. His heart rate's racing.
Copy !req
23. - Hey, Pete. It's Truman.
- Hey.
Copy !req
24. - How you doing up there, Hoss?
- Pretty good.
Copy !req
25. Now, listen, Pete.
We got an eye on your meds here.
Copy !req
26. I'll give you a buffalo nickel
if you'll calm down just a little bit.
Copy !req
27. - Can you do that for me?
- Whatever you say.
Copy !req
28. Okay, now we got plenty of
time, buddy, so don't you worry.
Copy !req
29. - Atlantis...
- Okay. Looking good here.
Copy !req
30. - He's got it.
- He'll be all right.
Copy !req
31. Go ahead, Atlantis.
Copy !req
32. Roger that, Houston.
Suggest we start reeling Pete in.
Copy !req
33. - The system's down.
- No.
Copy !req
34. - What the hell is that?
- My Lord.
Copy !req
35. We're down.
Copy !req
36. Houston!
Copy !req
37. - We've lost all contact.
- What happened?
Copy !req
38. Stewart, play that tape back!
Copy !req
39. Houston!
Copy !req
40. Multiple bogies! Multiple bogies!
Copy !req
41. Sector five, niner. I have three.
Now five. Unidentified tracts.
Copy !req
42. My screen's full.
Copy !req
43. Multiple tracts headed towards
the Atlantic seaboard.
Copy !req
44. This could be
a surprise missile attack.
Copy !req
45. Mr. President, the shuttle Atlantis
just exploded in space.
Copy !req
46. Okay, I want three groups!
Copy !req
47. One, internal malfunction.
Copy !req
48. Get the log tape. Start working back.
Maybe it's a glitch.
Copy !req
49. Two, I want NORAD Space Command
and the 50th Tactical
Copy !req
50. comparing all the space junk
you track in every orbit.
Copy !req
51. I want you to check,
recheck and then do it all over again.
Copy !req
52. Number three, wild cards,
anything and everything.
Copy !req
53. All right? Now, big Ross, I want
you to get on the telephone.
Copy !req
54. - Wake up 11,000 people.
- Right.
Copy !req
55. - Walt, get them going.
- Let's go!
Copy !req
56. Karl!
Copy !req
57. Karl! Karl!
Copy !req
58. Karl! Your Stouffer's pot pie's been
on the table almost 10 hours.
Copy !req
59. - I want a divorce.
- Dottie, I'm on to something big here.
Copy !req
60. I don't know what this is,
Copy !req
61. but it looks like
something's burning up there.
Copy !req
62. Go get my phone book, will you?
Get my phone book.
Copy !req
63. Get those names of those guys
from NASA:
Copy !req
64. Excuse me! Am I wearing a sign
that says, "Karl's slave"?
Copy !req
65. Go get my goddamn phone book!
Get the book!
Copy !req
66. Get the book! Get the book!
Copy !req
67. Space Command is reporting negative.
That is zero global launches.
Copy !req
68. It might just be pieces of the shuttle
breaking up as it comes in.
Copy !req
69. Yeah, it might be Santa Claus.
Copy !req
70. Until we get definitive, reliable
alternative confirmation, General,
Copy !req
71. we go to DEFCON 3:
Copy !req
72. I'm getting ready
for the big time
Copy !req
73. Someday you're gonna say
I'm big time too
Copy !req
74. Hey, little man! Little Richard!
Copy !req
75. Me and you, man!
We going to the top, baby! Big time!
Copy !req
76. Yo, man, I ain't gonna be riding
this bike the rest of my life!
Copy !req
77. You know what I'm saying?
I'm getting a motorcycle, baby.
Copy !req
78. We gonna travel in style.
Copy !req
79. I'm getting ready
for the big time
Copy !req
80. Someday you're gonna say
I'm big time
Copy !req
81. Watch where you're going.
I bet you, none of y'all stop for brothers.
Copy !req
82. Slow down, Little Richard.
Copy !req
83. You've been riding all morning, man.
You gotta take a dump?
Copy !req
84. We interrupt our regularly
scheduled program
Copy !req
85. - to bring you this special report.
- Hey, man, what happened?
Copy !req
86. The shuttle Atlantis exploded
in space at 3:47 a. M.,
Copy !req
87. Eastern Standard Time.
Copy !req
88. This morning
NASA officials are denying...
Copy !req
89. Hey! Hey, get! Get!
Copy !req
90. - That's my Godzilla. Come on, now.
- Yo, fool!
Copy !req
91. Don't be kicking Little Richard.
What the hell your problem?
Copy !req
92. Now that dog's
eating my Godzilla, man.
Copy !req
93. And what's a little runt like you
gonna do about it?
Copy !req
94. Get him, Richard. Sic him.
Copy !req
95. If I wasn't a Christian,
I'd be throwing your fat,
Copy !req
96. pineapple-eating ass
through the window.
Copy !req
97. Why we not going, huh?
Copy !req
98. Well, you know why?
'Cause this is New York City.
Copy !req
99. Anything could have happened.
Look at that.
Copy !req
100. Let's see.
It could have been a terrorist bomb.
Copy !req
101. It could have been a dead body,
somebody shot, stabbed.
Copy !req
102. And it's Friday. Payday, too.
Copy !req
103. Somebody probably jumped,
didn't get their paycheck. Yes.
Copy !req
104. I want to go shopping.
Copy !req
105. Me, too, but we ain't going nowhere
'cause this is a traffic jam.
Copy !req
106. - Little Richard.
- Hurry! Right over there!
Copy !req
107. - Go!
- Yo, Little Richard!
Copy !req
108. Hang on, Little Richard! I'm coming!
Copy !req
109. Don't you worry about it.
I'm gonna get you outta there!
Copy !req
110. You okay, buddy? Don't worry about it.
Hang in there.
Copy !req
111. Somebody dial 911!
Copy !req
112. My screen's full!
They're all over the place!
Copy !req
113. Bogies are breaching
the atmosphere from Finland
Copy !req
114. down the North American seaboard.
Copy !req
115. Whoa!
Copy !req
116. Look at that!
Copy !req
117. We at war!
Copy !req
118. Saddam Hussein is bombing us!
Copy !req
119. Come on! Let's go! Let's go!
Copy !req
120. Get out of here!
Copy !req
121. Oh, my God!
Copy !req
122. Let's stay focused.
We need to map the trajectory now.
Copy !req
123. - Well, that could take a week.
- Just find it, okay?
Copy !req
124. I want to know if the worst is over
or if it's on its way.
Copy !req
125. We've got General Kimsey on the line.
Copy !req
126. We've got hits from Finland
to South Carolina.
Copy !req
127. We know they're not missiles.
Now what the hell is it?
Copy !req
128. It's a meteor shower.
That's what took out the shuttle.
Copy !req
129. - He's waiting for you.
- What's the death toll?
Copy !req
130. I've got the President on Air Force One
demanding answers. Is it over?
Copy !req
131. General, we've got 11,000 people
at NASA
Copy !req
132. trying to figure that out right now.
Copy !req
133. When we know, you'll know.
Copy !req
134. Okay, Karl, listen.
I want you to take your time.
Copy !req
135. Yes, sir. You are definitely the first.
Copy !req
136. Okay, first coordinate.
One-two-three-nine. 1239, right?
Copy !req
137. - FBI locked his location.
- Saw an explosion in space.
Copy !req
138. - Okay.
- The last one...
Copy !req
139. Now, listen, Karl, this is top secret.
Copy !req
140. Sir, I'm retired Navy.
I know all about classified.
Copy !req
141. But one more thing.
Copy !req
142. The person that finds her
gets to name her, right?
Copy !req
143. Yes, that's right. That's right.
Copy !req
144. I want to name her Dottie, after my wife.
Copy !req
145. She's a vicious, life-sucking bitch
from which there's no escape.
Copy !req
146. That's... That's sweet, Karl.
Copy !req
147. S.D.I., this is Flight Director.
Copy !req
148. I want to get that Hubble moving
and I want it now.
Copy !req
149. Roger that. We're moving the Hubble!
Copy !req
150. It's enormous.
Copy !req
151. This is the anomaly at 1643.
Copy !req
152. Here is the anomaly at 1658.
Copy !req
153. And here is the anomaly at 1700.
Copy !req
154. Enough with this "anomaly" horseshit!
Copy !req
155. - What is this thing?
- It's an asteroid, sir.
Copy !req
156. How big are we talking?
Copy !req
157. Sir, our best estimate is 97.6 billion...
Copy !req
158. - It's the size of Texas, Mr. President.
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
159. Dan, we didn't see this thing coming?
Copy !req
160. Well, our object collision
budget's a million dollars.
Copy !req
161. That allows us to track
about three percent of the sky.
Copy !req
162. And begging your pardon, sir,
but it's a big-ass sky.
Copy !req
163. And the ones this morning?
Copy !req
164. Those are nothing.
They're the size of basketballs
Copy !req
165. and, Volkswagens, things like that.
Copy !req
166. Is this going to hit us?
Copy !req
167. - We're efforting that as we speak, sir.
- What kind of damage are we...
Copy !req
168. Damage?
Copy !req
169. Total, sir.
Copy !req
170. It's what we call a global killer.
Copy !req
171. The end of mankind.
Copy !req
172. Doesn't matter where it hits.
Copy !req
173. Nothing would survive,
not even bacteria.
Copy !req
174. My God. What do we do?
Copy !req
175. We have 18 days before it hits Earth.
Copy !req
176. - Have mercy.
- Rise and shine!
Copy !req
177. Stop the drilling! Stop the drilling!
Stop the drilling!
Copy !req
178. - Fore!
- Stop the drilling!
Copy !req
179. Stop the drilling! Stop the drilling!
Copy !req
180. - Hey!
- Hey, that was close!
Copy !req
181. I gave you 50,000 a year in donations!
Copy !req
182. What do you think
they're so mad about, Chick?
Copy !req
183. Well, I think they feel that drilling for oil
is an evil thing.
Copy !req
184. Do you know how much diesel that
clunker boat pumps out in an hour?
Copy !req
185. You know, I just found out
something interesting.
Copy !req
186. Number two chewed 180 feet last night.
Copy !req
187. Who do we have to thank for this?
Copy !req
188. Well, I'll give you two guesses,
but you're only gonna need one.
Copy !req
189. Goddamn it, A.J.!
Copy !req
190. A.J.!
Copy !req
191. A.J.! A.J., you in here?
Copy !req
192. That's just perfect. In bed. Get up!
Copy !req
193. - Hey, you wanted to see me?
- Yeah, I was looking for you.
Copy !req
194. You're pissed. Okay, I can see that.
Copy !req
195. No. You know what, A.J.?
I'm not pissed.
Copy !req
196. You've seen me pissed. This is way,
way beyond pissed, though.
Copy !req
197. You know I shut down
number two last night, right?
Copy !req
198. Yeah, man, I had a hunch on that.
Copy !req
199. Dude, let me tell you something.
Copy !req
200. Someday, many years from now,
when you're all growed up
Copy !req
201. and you got your own oil company
Copy !req
202. and $8 million of your own money
on the contract,
Copy !req
203. you can do whatever comes
into that little
Copy !req
204. A.J.- idioting mind of yours you want,
but as long as it says
Copy !req
205. "Harry Stamper Oil" on the rig
you will not disobey my rules.
Copy !req
206. - You got that?
- Yeah, I do got it.
Copy !req
207. Right now, I need to hear
five words from you.
Copy !req
208. - I'll never do that again.
- Never do that again.
Copy !req
209. I'm a fool. That was idiotic.
I mean, that was stupid.
Copy !req
210. I'm an idiot. I know what name's
on the sign. I'm not... I can't...
Copy !req
211. - What's going on here?
- What's going on? Well, I mean, I...
Copy !req
212. - I screwed up. I'm a little edgy.
- How long you worked for me?
Copy !req
213. Five wonderful years.
Copy !req
214. In five years, you have never
apologized to me this quickly.
Copy !req
215. Something's going on here.
I'm gonna find out what it is.
Copy !req
216. No, no, no. Well...
Copy !req
217. I'm turning over a new leaf.
Copy !req
218. I'm trying to learn from the man.
What would Harry do?
Copy !req
219. I'm at a loss for words.
Copy !req
220. - Okay, I can explain this.
- You can explain that?
Copy !req
221. - I can.
- I would really like an explanation.
Copy !req
222. You just stay right here.
Copy !req
223. - Grace?
- Hi, Harry.
Copy !req
224. I have asked you repeatedly
to call me Dad.
Copy !req
225. - Sorry, Harry.
- Get up and get your clothes on.
Copy !req
226. You just stay right there.
I'll be right back.
Copy !req
227. Here's what we're gonna do.
Copy !req
228. I want every strategy we've got on
near-Earth object collision, okay?
Copy !req
229. Any ideas, any programs,
Copy !req
230. anything you sketched on a pizza box
or a cocktail napkin.
Copy !req
231. For 30 years,
they questioned the need for NASA:
Copy !req
232. Today we're gonna give them
the answer.
Copy !req
233. You know about this, Rockhound?
You knew.
Copy !req
234. No, I had no idea.
Copy !req
235. Where's Harry?
Copy !req
236. Harry! All right! Whoa, whoa, whoa!
I understand, okay?
Copy !req
237. You're mad.
Who... Who wouldn't be mad?
Copy !req
238. - But he's gonna shoot you.
- Nah. No, he's not. Oh, shit.
Copy !req
239. - Harry!
- What's wrong with you?
Copy !req
240. Make your peace with God, A.J.
Copy !req
241. This guy's got a gun, man!
He's shooting at me!
Copy !req
242. Harry, this is not funny!
Copy !req
243. Harry, listen to me!
We can talk this over!
Copy !req
244. So is this a serious thing?
Copy !req
245. Yeah, pretty serious.
Copy !req
246. - Bear, man!
- What's up?
Copy !req
247. He's shooting at me.
You see Harry coming,
Copy !req
248. crack him with that wrench!
Copy !req
249. You told A.J.'s dad just before he died
that you would take care of the boy.
Copy !req
250. Now, I'm not sure that shooting
him is taking care of him.
Copy !req
251. Why don't you put the gun down,
boss?
Copy !req
252. You don't want none of this, Bear.
Get out of my way.
Copy !req
253. Just trying to give my man a head start,
that's all.
Copy !req
254. Not to mention the fact that I don't think
you wanna kill the best man
Copy !req
255. on your crew before we strike oil.
Copy !req
256. Chick, I ain't gonna kill him.
Copy !req
257. Just gonna take a foot off.
A man can work with one foot.
Copy !req
258. You remember old Frank Marx
Copy !req
259. who worked with one hand
all them years?
Copy !req
260. Yeah, but he wasn't very good.
Copy !req
261. Harry, put the gun down!
You're acting insane!
Copy !req
262. Now, honey, go get some clothes on
and get out of the way.
Copy !req
263. - You can't control my life.
- Fine. Clothes. Now!
Copy !req
264. All right, stop, all right?
Copy !req
265. It was funny for a minute,
it's not funny anymore.
Copy !req
266. Harry, this is illegal, man.
Copy !req
267. I'm temporarily insane, Rock.
It's all right.
Copy !req
268. - Do I look like I'm crazy to you?
- Well...
Copy !req
269. Harry, hey, just cool down.
Copy !req
270. - What are you... Okay, stop.
- All right. All right, Harry.
Copy !req
271. All right. Now, listen, man to man.
Copy !req
272. I'm serious. I love her.
Copy !req
273. Way wrong answer.
Copy !req
274. - Whoa, whoa, Harry. It's getting real.
- Harry! Come on, Harry!
Copy !req
275. - Stop him!
- You shot him!
Copy !req
276. Bullet never got close. Just a ricochet.
Copy !req
277. You know, it's all funny
till somebody gets shot in the leg.
Copy !req
278. Hey, pucker up!
We got clients incoming!
Copy !req
279. Back in 1974,
Copy !req
280. we first got the idea,
Copy !req
281. the possibility that a,
that a meteor or an asteroid...
Copy !req
282. I need somebody who's had a little less
caffeine this morning. Doc, translate.
Copy !req
283. Our first feasibility plan was to use
a spread-focus laser generator
Copy !req
284. to heat the object
to the point of fracture.
Copy !req
285. That's like shooting a B.B. gun
at a freight train, Doc.
Copy !req
286. Some of us have got this idea.
Copy !req
287. We want to land a craft,
deploy solar sails.
Copy !req
288. You'll have a great big canopy.
Solar winds will be caught
Copy !req
289. by these mylar sails.
Copy !req
290. - Okay.
- Come on, guys.
Copy !req
291. We gotta come up with something
realistic here. We got 18 days.
Copy !req
292. That's 431 hours,
15 minutes and 18 seconds.
Copy !req
293. Time's a luxury we don't have. What?
Copy !req
294. Listen, Harry. A.J. is my choice,
my choice and not yours.
Copy !req
295. He's the only one in your age bracket,
Grace.
Copy !req
296. It's not a choice, it's a lack of options.
Copy !req
297. I don't know what in the world
makes you think
Copy !req
298. that you have the right to tell me
what to do anymore, Harry.
Copy !req
299. I suppose being your father
doesn't count, huh?
Copy !req
300. - Not really.
- Since when?
Copy !req
301. Since I reached the age of 10
and became older than you, Harry.
Copy !req
302. Since Mom split.
Why don't you take your pick?
Copy !req
303. Look, I understand
that you are handicapped
Copy !req
304. by a natural immaturity
and I forgive you.
Copy !req
305. I may be an immature father, okay?
But I'm still your employer.
Copy !req
306. And as your boss I want you
on that crew boat tonight
Copy !req
307. and back in the office by Monday.
Copy !req
308. - You got that?
- Okay. I quit.
Copy !req
309. Grace, you can't quit now.
I need you to keep on working.
Copy !req
310. - Hi, Harry!
- What are you smiling about?
Copy !req
311. I've been seeing A.J. for
more than five months, Harry.
Copy !req
312. You little hypocrite. I ever held you
back once from doing anything?
Copy !req
313. What about having a life, Harry?
The first time I got my period
Copy !req
314. Rockhound had to take me
into Taipei for Tampax
Copy !req
315. and then he had to show me
how to use them, Harry.
Copy !req
316. I... No, I told her how to use it.
I didn't show her, Harry.
Copy !req
317. I was playing with
titanium depth gauges
Copy !req
318. when I should've been
playing with dolls.
Copy !req
319. I mean, I learned about
the birds and the bees
Copy !req
320. from Freddy Noonan's tattoos.
Copy !req
321. Look, I was raised on roughnecks
by you
Copy !req
322. and now you get all shocked
and shaken when I fall in love with one.
Copy !req
323. So who is the hypocrite here,
Harry, huh?
Copy !req
324. - Who?
- Look at those nice pipes up there.
Copy !req
325. - Listen to me, Grace. I want you...
- No, you listen to me, Harry. I grew up.
Copy !req
326. With the proximity of the asteroid
Copy !req
327. and no prep time,
none of our primary plans can work.
Copy !req
328. Why don't we just send up
150 nuclear warheads
Copy !req
329. and blast that rock apart?
Copy !req
330. - Terrible idea.
- Was I talking to you?
Copy !req
331. This is Dr. Ronald Quincy
from research,
Copy !req
332. pretty much the smartest man
on the planet.
Copy !req
333. You might want to listen to him.
Copy !req
334. General, if you consider your target,
her composition, her dimensions,
Copy !req
335. her sheer velocity,
Copy !req
336. you could fire every nuke
you've got at her
Copy !req
337. and she'll just smile at you
and keep on coming.
Copy !req
338. You should know that
the president's scientific advisors
Copy !req
339. are suggesting that a nuclear blast
could change this asteroid's trajectory.
Copy !req
340. I know the president's
chief scientific advisor.
Copy !req
341. We were at MIT together.
Copy !req
342. And in a situation like this, you...
You really don't want
Copy !req
343. to take the advice of a man who
got a C-minus in astrophysics.
Copy !req
344. The president's advisors are wrong.
I'm right.
Copy !req
345. Hitting the rock from the outside
won't do the job.
Copy !req
346. Imagine a firecracker
in the palm of your hand.
Copy !req
347. You set it off. What happens?
Burn your hand, right?
Copy !req
348. You close your fist around
the same firecracker and set it off...
Copy !req
349. Your wife's gonna be opening your
ketchup bottles the rest of your life.
Copy !req
350. Are you suggesting we blow
this thing up from the inside?
Copy !req
351. - That's exactly what I'm saying.
- How?
Copy !req
352. We drill.
Copy !req
353. We bring in the world's
best deep-core driller.
Copy !req
354. Harry, get up here! We're taking a hit!
Copy !req
355. - Get A.J. up here! Whoa!
- Come on!
Copy !req
356. Send another pipe on down!
Right now! Full pipe!
Copy !req
357. It's a gas pocket.
Copy !req
358. I told you.
Am I lucky, or am I just a genius?
Copy !req
359. I shut it down for a reason, you jackass!
The relief valve's fried open.
Copy !req
360. Shut off the number two valve!
Grace, get the clients outta here now!
Copy !req
361. Chick, get them outta here!
Get them off the rig now!
Copy !req
362. Get the hell down!
This thing is gonna blow!
Copy !req
363. Get out! Chick, get out now!
Copy !req
364. Get down!
Copy !req
365. Three dozen research calls
Copy !req
366. and every time the same man
is recommended.
Copy !req
367. He's worked on every terrain
this planet can offer.
Copy !req
368. Whenever they said
it couldn't be drilled, this guy drilled it.
Copy !req
369. - Everybody all right?
- We struck oil, baby!
Copy !req
370. Somebody could've got killed
out here today.
Copy !req
371. You want that on your conscience?
Copy !req
372. High thumb. You are man, Harry.
Copy !req
373. Thumbs high.
Copy !req
374. You're fired.
Copy !req
375. Who's Harry Stamper?
Copy !req
376. Yeah, I'm Harry Stamper.
What's all this about?
Copy !req
377. Mr. Stamper, I'm General Montgomery,
commander of the Pacific Air Forces.
Copy !req
378. I've been sent here
by the secretary of defense
Copy !req
379. on direct orders from
the president of the United States.
Copy !req
380. It's a matter of urgent national security.
Copy !req
381. I need you to get on that chopper
right now, no questions asked.
Copy !req
382. - Crazy Willie put you up to this?
- Afraid I don't know Crazy Willie.
Copy !req
383. Sir, I'm dead serious about this.
Copy !req
384. - Harry.
- What?
Copy !req
385. Man, I swear to God,
she never told me her age.
Copy !req
386. It's all right. Relax. It's about me.
Copy !req
387. Forget it.
Copy !req
388. All right, General. I'll go with you.
Copy !req
389. On one condition,
we have to take my daughter along.
Copy !req
390. - What did I do?
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Copy !req
391. Where you guys taking her?
Wait a minute.
Copy !req
392. - Sir, stay right here.
- Well...
Copy !req
393. Chick! Get him paid, get him off the rig!
Copy !req
394. - Mr. Stamper?
- Yeah, I'm Harry Stamper.
Copy !req
395. How you doing? Miss Stamper.
Copy !req
396. I'm Dan Truman,
executive director here.
Copy !req
397. Now, listen, on behalf of all of us,
I'd really like to apologize...
Copy !req
398. Apologize. I don't know if we can take
any more apologies, Mr. Truman.
Copy !req
399. We've been apologized to for
the last 18 and a half hours.
Copy !req
400. So if you don't mind,
how 'bout if we just get on with it
Copy !req
401. and you tell us why we're here
at the NASA space center?
Copy !req
402. We should probably talk alone.
Copy !req
403. Mr. Truman, I don't keep any secrets
from my daughter, Grace.
Copy !req
404. So whether you tell her now
or I tell her later she's gonna find out
Copy !req
405. one way or the other,
so why don't we just get on with it?
Copy !req
406. So when the rogue comet
hit the asteroid belt,
Copy !req
407. it sent shrapnel right for us.
Copy !req
408. For the next 15 days,
the Earth's in a shooting gallery.
Copy !req
409. Even if the asteroid itself hits the water,
it's still hitting land.
Copy !req
410. It'll flash-boil millions of
gallons of sea water
Copy !req
411. and slam into the ocean bedrock.
Copy !req
412. Now, if it's a Pacific Ocean impact,
which we think it will be,
Copy !req
413. it'll create a tidal wave three miles high,
travel at 1,000 miles an hour
Copy !req
414. covering California
and washing up in Denver.
Copy !req
415. Japan's gone. Australia's wiped out.
Copy !req
416. Half the world's population'll be
incinerated by the heat blast
Copy !req
417. and the rest'll freeze to death
from nuclear winter.
Copy !req
418. That's unbelievable.
Copy !req
419. Well, actually, this is as real as it gets.
Copy !req
420. Well, it's coming, right now,
Copy !req
421. right for us at 22,000 miles an hour.
Copy !req
422. Not a soul on Earth can hide from it.
Copy !req
423. I take it you're not alerting
everyone like this.
Copy !req
424. Nobody knows. That's the way it stays.
Copy !req
425. For the next 10 days, there are only
nine telescopes in the world
Copy !req
426. that can spot the asteroid,
and we control eight of them.
Copy !req
427. The president's classified
this information top secret.
Copy !req
428. If news like this got out,
there'd be an overnight breakdown
Copy !req
429. of basic social services worldwide,
rioting, mass religious hysteria.
Copy !req
430. Total chaos. You can imagine.
Copy !req
431. Basically the worst parts of the Bible.
Copy !req
432. Six billion people on the planet,
Copy !req
433. why'd you guys call me?
Copy !req
434. We need you to prep the team
we're sending up.
Copy !req
435. - Up?
- We'll send them to the asteroid,
Copy !req
436. they'll land, they'll drill a hole,
they'll drop some nukes,
Copy !req
437. take off and detonate
if we can fix this equipment problem.
Copy !req
438. Now, the drilling unit's a prototype
Copy !req
439. we've been building for
the Mars project.
Copy !req
440. You... You might recognize the rig.
Copy !req
441. Yeah, well, I guess I should
recognize it. It's my design.
Copy !req
442. What'd you do?
Steal a key to the patent office?
Copy !req
443. - Yeah, basically.
- Let me get this straight.
Copy !req
444. I got pulled off an oil rig,
Copy !req
445. flown halfway around the world
because you stole my drill design,
Copy !req
446. couldn't read the plans right
Copy !req
447. and did a piss-poorjob of
putting it together, is that it?
Copy !req
448. Well, technically,
patents don't apply to outer space.
Copy !req
449. Just shut up, Quincy.
Copy !req
450. It's not going to Mars anymore.
It's going to try to save this planet.
Copy !req
451. And we need to know
what's wrong with it pretty quick.
Copy !req
452. You said we did a bad job
of putting it together?
Copy !req
453. No, I said you did a piss-poorjob
of putting it together.
Copy !req
454. First of all,
you got the flow system all reversed.
Copy !req
455. Let me guess,
Copy !req
456. you've been tearing up rotors
and you can't figure out why.
Copy !req
457. Yeah, that's right, actually.
Copy !req
458. Well, that's because your cams
are all wrong, Mr. Wizard.
Copy !req
459. - Who's been operating this thing?
- Right there.
Copy !req
460. We've actually... We've had them
training for eight months solid now.
Copy !req
461. - Eight whole months?
- Well, pretty much, yeah.
Copy !req
462. Well, gee whiz.
Copy !req
463. Well, this is the team
that has to do the job up there.
Copy !req
464. We need you to train them down here.
Copy !req
465. Well, Mr. Stamper, what do you think?
Copy !req
466. You know, drilling's a science.
It's an art.
Copy !req
467. I'm a third-generation driller,
doing it all my life
Copy !req
468. and I still haven't got it all figured out.
Copy !req
469. I assume you sent for me
Copy !req
470. because somebody told you
I was the best.
Copy !req
471. Well, I'm only the best
because I work with the best.
Copy !req
472. You don't trust the men
you're working with,
Copy !req
473. you're as good as dead.
Copy !req
474. Now, you want to send
these boys into space, fine.
Copy !req
475. I'm sure they'll make good astronauts.
Copy !req
476. But they don't knowjack about drilling.
Copy !req
477. - What's your contingency plan?
- Contingency plan?
Copy !req
478. Your backup plan. You gotta have
some kind of backup plan, right?
Copy !req
479. No, we don't have a backup plan.
This is it.
Copy !req
480. And this is the best that you could...
Copy !req
481. That the government,
Copy !req
482. the U.S. government
can come up with?
Copy !req
483. I mean, you're NASA,
for crying out loud.
Copy !req
484. You put a man on the moon.
Copy !req
485. You're geniuses!
You're the guys that think this shit up.
Copy !req
486. I'm sure you got a team of men
sitting around somewhere right now
Copy !req
487. just thinking shit up
and somebody backing them up.
Copy !req
488. You telling me you
don't have a backup plan,
Copy !req
489. that these eight Boy Scouts right here,
Copy !req
490. that is the world's hope,
that's what you're telling me?
Copy !req
491. - Yeah.
- Jesus. Damn it.
Copy !req
492. We're a little short on time here.
Will you help us?
Copy !req
493. - All they gotta do is drill?
- That's it.
Copy !req
494. No spacewalking,
no crazy astronaut stuff?
Copy !req
495. Just drill.
Copy !req
496. How many men were you planning
on taking up there?
Copy !req
497. We're sending up two shuttles,
two teams.
Copy !req
498. If I do this,
I'm gonna wanna take my own men.
Copy !req
499. You got it.
Copy !req
500. So you're saying you'll help us?
Copy !req
501. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
502. Thanks.
Copy !req
503. I just don't trust
anybody else to do it, that's all.
Copy !req
504. No, Mrs. Curlene, it's Harry Stamper.
Copy !req
505. If you see Bear,
you tell him Harry's looking for him.
Copy !req
506. Those guys get off this rig, they scatter.
Jayotis Kerleen Bear,
Copy !req
507. probably the only black man on
a big hog in Kadoka, South Dakota.
Copy !req
508. Come and get Papa Bear!
Copy !req
509. - Max.
- You got a weight limit on the shuttle?
Copy !req
510. - Max.
- Hey, Mama.
Copy !req
511. That's so sweet, Maxie.
Copy !req
512. Hey, did you get me one of them
yellowjelly bear claws I like?
Copy !req
513. Maxie, are you in trouble
with the law again?
Copy !req
514. - No, Mama.
- Maxie.
Copy !req
515. I swear, Mama, I'm...
Copy !req
516. - You know I want Rockhound.
- We call him Hound because...
Copy !req
517. Well, he's horny.
Copy !req
518. Well, you might want to start
with every bar in New Orleans.
Copy !req
519. That is a big, shiny mount, isn't it?
Copy !req
520. - How long you been married?
- For two weeks.
Copy !req
521. - See this diamond?
- Yeah?
Copy !req
522. It's not a diamond.
Copy !req
523. - Would you like another drink?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
524. - Sir, FBI.
- She's so cute.
Copy !req
525. - No, thanks.
- We have a national security matter.
Copy !req
526. - Good for you.
- Let's go.
Copy !req
527. - Now.
- How old are you?
Copy !req
528. Oscar Choi,
spacy but absolutely brilliant geologist.
Copy !req
529. He owns a horse ranch outside
of El Paso.
Copy !req
530. What the...
Copy !req
531. Mr. Chick Chapple, at the craps table,
Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, Nevada.
Copy !req
532. Yes! About time.
Copy !req
533. Charles Chapple, game's over.
Copy !req
534. Who's gonna run the other rig?
Copy !req
535. How about Benny? He's good.
Copy !req
536. The only one knows how to run it
as well as I do is A.J.
Copy !req
537. I thought you said
you couldn't trust him.
Copy !req
538. I thought you said I could.
Copy !req
539. Yep, you are on your way, A.J.
Copy !req
540. Well, you know, being in business
for yourself has its advantages,
Copy !req
541. make my own hours,
nobody shoots me in the leg.
Copy !req
542. You don't got a gun on you now,
do you? Good.
Copy !req
543. 'Cause I kind of wanted to get back
to this whole thing
Copy !req
544. about you asking me for help.
Copy !req
545. Does that mean
that there's actually a job
Copy !req
546. that Mr. All-Go-No-Quit-Big-Nuts
Harry Stamper can't handle by himself
Copy !req
547. and needs my expert advice?
Copy !req
548. - Something like that, yeah.
- Well, no, no, no.
Copy !req
549. I mean, is it something like that,
or is it that?
Copy !req
550. You know,
you and me got a real problem.
Copy !req
551. You know, Harry, there are only
Copy !req
552. five words I wanna hear
from you right now.
Copy !req
553. And those words are,
"You know, A.J., I really look up to you.
Copy !req
554. "You've been a hero of mine
for a long time,
Copy !req
555. "and I'm very impressed with your work,
I'm emotionally closed off. "
Copy !req
556. That's like... That's, like,
11 words or something.
Copy !req
557. You know what? How about just,
"A.J., I'm sorry, and... And I love you. "
Copy !req
558. You know, A.J.,
there's not a job on the planet
Copy !req
559. that I want you to work with me on.
Copy !req
560. I mean that.
Copy !req
561. So what are you doing here?
Harry, what's the job?
Copy !req
562. - Big Daddy!
- What's up, baby?
Copy !req
563. Yeah, big Bear.
What's up? What's up?
Copy !req
564. What's up, Harry?
Did NASA find oil on Uranus, man?
Copy !req
565. None of you have to go.
We can all just sit here on Earth,
Copy !req
566. wait for this big rock to crash into it,
kill everything and everybody we know.
Copy !req
567. The United States government
just asked us to save the world.
Copy !req
568. - Anybody wanna say no?
- Twenty years,
Copy !req
569. haven't turned you down once,
not about to start now.
Copy !req
570. I'm there.
Copy !req
571. Guess I can't let you go up there alone.
Copy !req
572. I'm with you.
Copy !req
573. I mean, this is... This is historic.
Copy !req
574. Guys, this is like deep blue hero stuff.
Copy !req
575. - Of course I'm in.
- While I don't share his enthusiasm,
Copy !req
576. you know me, beam me up, Scotty.
Copy !req
577. - You all right, Max?
- I don't... I don't...
Copy !req
578. Whatever you think.
Copy !req
579. - What about you?
- I'm in.
Copy !req
580. All right, then.
Copy !req
581. We go.
Copy !req
582. I don't mean to be the materialistic
weasel of this group,
Copy !req
583. but you think we'll get
hazard pay out of this?
Copy !req
584. If you're trying to make me feel better
about this scenario, give it up.
Copy !req
585. To tell you the truth,
I'm kind of encouraged.
Copy !req
586. This guy Chick here was
an Air Force commando for six years.
Copy !req
587. We got robbery, assault,
arrest, resisting arrest.
Copy !req
588. We got a collection agent for the mob.
Copy !req
589. Two of these guys
have done serious time.
Copy !req
590. - Look, they're the best at what they do.
- So am I.
Copy !req
591. And I'm not so optimistic.
Copy !req
592. We spend $250 billion
a year on defense.
Copy !req
593. And here we are.
The fate of the planet is in the hands
Copy !req
594. of a bunch of retards
I wouldn't trust with a potato gun.
Copy !req
595. So what's the verdict?
Copy !req
596. They'll do it.
They've made a few requests though.
Copy !req
597. Such as?
Copy !req
598. Just a few things here.
Copy !req
599. Nothing really big, just...
Well, as an example...
Copy !req
600. Oscar here's got some
outstanding parking tickets.
Copy !req
601. Wants them wiped off his record.
Copy !req
602. - Fifty-six tickets in seven states.
- I'll tell him, Oscar. I got it.
Copy !req
603. - Okay.
- Noonan's got two women friends
Copy !req
604. that he'd like to see made
American citizens, no questions asked.
Copy !req
605. Max would like you to bring back
eight track tapes.
Copy !req
606. Not sure if that's gonna work,
but let's see what else.
Copy !req
607. Chick wants a full week's
Emperor's Package at Caesars Palace.
Copy !req
608. Hey, you guys
wouldn't be able to tell us
Copy !req
609. who actually killed Kennedy,
would you?
Copy !req
610. Bear would like to stay at the
Copy !req
611. White Horse, the...
Copy !req
612. White House. White House.
Copy !req
613. White House. Yeah, he'd like to stay
in the Lincoln Bedroom
Copy !req
614. of the White House for the summer.
Copy !req
615. - Stuff like that.
- Sure, I think we can
Copy !req
616. take care of some of that.
Copy !req
617. Harry!
Copy !req
618. Yeah, one more thing.
Copy !req
619. None of them wanna pay taxes again.
Copy !req
620. Ever.
Copy !req
621. Who's that for? Mr. Ed?
Copy !req
622. You stick that in me,
I'm gonna stab you in the heart with it.
Copy !req
623. You ever see Pulp Fiction?
Copy !req
624. Oh, say can you see
Copy !req
625. We're losing him,
we're losing him. Clear! Kaboom!
Copy !req
626. - Freddy, you all right?
- Does this look okay to you?
Copy !req
627. - Does this look okay?
- It's not all bad. It's kind of tingly.
Copy !req
628. Mr. Chapple, you're next!
Copy !req
629. Gee, lady, I just came here to drill.
Copy !req
630. So did I.
Copy !req
631. Your triglycerides are way high
Copy !req
632. and your bad cholesterol
is shockingly bad.
Copy !req
633. Tell you to lay off those pork rinds,
Pooh Bear.
Copy !req
634. Yeah, pork rind this.
Copy !req
635. Pork rinds this! Yeah!
Copy !req
636. Take it off, baby!
Copy !req
637. Well, at least they're in good spirits.
Copy !req
638. Piece of cake.
Look, you wanna compare brain pans?
Copy !req
639. I won the Westinghouse Prize
when I was 12. Big deal.
Copy !req
640. Published at 19. So what?
Copy !req
641. I got a double doctorate
from MIT at 22.
Copy !req
642. Chemistry and geology. I taught at
Princeton for two and a half years.
Copy !req
643. You know, I think this might be
the most uncomfortable room
Copy !req
644. I've ever been in my life.
Copy !req
645. Why do I do this?
Copy !req
646. Because the money's good,
the scenery changes
Copy !req
647. and they let me use explosives, okay?
Copy !req
648. Okay, you wanna be
all psychological with me, that's fine.
Copy !req
649. I'll tell you one thing
that really drives me nuts
Copy !req
650. is people who think that
Jethro Tull is just a person in the band.
Copy !req
651. Who is Jethro Tull?
Copy !req
652. My favorite dish is haggis,
heart, lungs, liver.
Copy !req
653. You shove that all in
a sheep's stomach, then you boil it.
Copy !req
654. That'll put some hair on your ass.
Copy !req
655. I am not crazy.
Copy !req
656. I'm just a little emotional right now,
okay?
Copy !req
657. You all throwing
all this stuff at me, man.
Copy !req
658. Look... Get... I mean...
Copy !req
659. After this is over, could I, like,
get a hug from you or something?
Copy !req
660. Okay,
Cyclops lady's starting to bug me.
Copy !req
661. Can you handle it?
Copy !req
662. I mean, I can handle what I'm,
you know... I'm gonna do.
Copy !req
663. I can handle that, but I don't know
if I can handle this room.
Copy !req
664. Woman with large breasts.
Copy !req
665. Woman with medium breasts.
Copy !req
666. Here's Harry giving me a hard time.
Copy !req
667. And this is Harry telling me
it's not good enough.
Copy !req
668. And this is Harry telling me
I can't marry his daughter.
Copy !req
669. Thanks a lot. I appreciate it.
Copy !req
670. Just let it out.
Copy !req
671. I suffered a major head injury
when I was in high school.
Copy !req
672. This one looks like you, with breasts.
Copy !req
673. Yeah, I can handle it.
Yeah, I can handle it.
Copy !req
674. A home run!
The Cubs win the World Series!
Copy !req
675. Fail. Fail. Depressively fail.
Copy !req
676. One toxicology analysis
revealed ketamine.
Copy !req
677. That is a very powerful sedative.
Copy !req
678. Sedatives are used all the time, Doctor.
Copy !req
679. Well, this one's used on horses.
Copy !req
680. Some of these guys are pretty big.
Copy !req
681. It would normally take 18 months
to psychologically prepare,
Copy !req
682. prescreen viable subjects
for space travel.
Copy !req
683. We have seen evidence of
a wide variety of territorial aggression.
Copy !req
684. Can they physically survive the trip?
That's all I need to know here, okay?
Copy !req
685. Personally, I don't know how
they survived the tests.
Copy !req
686. Talk about the wrong stuff.
Copy !req
687. Good morning.
I'm Colonel Willie Sharp.
Copy !req
688. In addition to flying one of
the X-71 teams to that rock,
Copy !req
689. my job is to train you how to deal
Copy !req
690. with the mental and physical rigors
of working in space
Copy !req
691. so you don't freak out on the asteroid.
Copy !req
692. United States astronauts train for years.
Copy !req
693. You have 12 days.
Copy !req
694. Do we have any intelligent questions
before we get started?
Copy !req
695. What's an X-71?
Copy !req
696. You're the first civilians to ever see her.
Copy !req
697. We call them the X-71 s.
Copy !req
698. It's a top secret joint venture
with the Air Force.
Copy !req
699. She and her sister ship at Vandenberg
Copy !req
700. are leaving for launch prep in Florida,
but I thought you ought to take a look.
Copy !req
701. The two shuttles going up are
the Freedom and the Independence.
Copy !req
702. Her titanium alloy impenetrable skin
covers the toughest, meanest,
Copy !req
703. most sophisticated space vehicle
man has ever made.
Copy !req
704. Okay, Air Force Colonel Davis,
NASA pilot Tucker
Copy !req
705. will command the shuttle
Independence.
Copy !req
706. Air Force Colonel Sharp, NASA
pilot Watts, shuttle Freedom.
Copy !req
707. Munitions specialist Gruber and Halsey
will supervise the nuclear ordnance.
Copy !req
708. Anyway, I just thought...
Copy !req
709. Thought you guys should meet.
Copy !req
710. Gentlemen, welcome to our weightless
environmental training facility.
Copy !req
711. So we're going swimming
on this asteroid? Is that what this is for?
Copy !req
712. Here at downtown NASA:
we call this the "Monster Armadillo. "
Copy !req
713. Gonna be retrofitted
with your drilling arm.
Copy !req
714. She'll turn 800 turbo horses
in near zero gravity.
Copy !req
715. Mind if we take a look at her now?
Copy !req
716. All these rubber hoses gotta go, Max.
Count them up.
Copy !req
717. Make sure it's short-throw shifting.
Copy !req
718. Quincy! Somebody tell me what this is.
Copy !req
719. Plastic ice cream scoop?
What'd that cost? About $400?
Copy !req
720. This is about
the sorriest group of people
Copy !req
721. I've seen in all my entire military career.
Copy !req
722. Your space flight's gonna be
a brutal assault on your senses.
Copy !req
723. I'm here to give you a taste of that.
Copy !req
724. NASA's got some of
the finest pilots in the world.
Copy !req
725. They're gonna be sucking your eyes
into the back of your heads.
Copy !req
726. Go easy on me, okay? It's my first time.
Copy !req
727. I just wanna seriously say
I have a small fear of flying.
Copy !req
728. I'm gonna twist you.
Copy !req
729. And I'm gonna flip you.
Copy !req
730. What's the matter with you?
Copy !req
731. Frap your body till your bones hurt.
Copy !req
732. When you squeal,
I'm just gonna go faster and harder.
Copy !req
733. No, take me down!
Copy !req
734. - How's the rest of the crew?
- Well...
Copy !req
735. Sorry about the rib chunks
all over your dashboard.
Copy !req
736. Don't forget, we gotta X-ray all these...
Copy !req
737. If you had to say, who would you say?
Copy !req
738. I don't know, Oscar.
Who do you think you are?
Copy !req
739. - Han Solo.
- No. If anybody's anybody, I'm Han.
Copy !req
740. And you're... You're Chewbacca.
Copy !req
741. Chewie?
Have you even seen Star Wars?
Copy !req
742. All right, men, let's go. Step it up.
Copy !req
743. Neil Armstrong, 1969,
bouncing on the moon.
Copy !req
744. He's bouncing because there's less
gravity up there than on Earth.
Copy !req
745. This will be similar to the asteroid,
so watch it.
Copy !req
746. Something gets launched off
that asteroid with enough force,
Copy !req
747. it's gonna keep on going
right into outer space.
Copy !req
748. What is the deal?
Is it just me, or is Watts really hot?
Copy !req
749. Yeah.
Copy !req
750. So we have these new generation suits
with directional accelerant thrusters.
Copy !req
751. - You won't bounce like Neil Armstrong.
- Yeah, think so?
Copy !req
752. - Bear!
- Yes?
Copy !req
753. - Do we have a problem?
- No.
Copy !req
754. 'Cause I'm trying to describe to you
how these D.A.T.s
Copy !req
755. keep your ass on the ground.
Copy !req
756. So that if I were to kick you in the balls
Copy !req
757. and you don't know how to work them,
what happens to you?
Copy !req
758. - I float away.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
759. And when do we start training for that?
Copy !req
760. Gentlemen, I'll give you 30 seconds
to put your helmets on,
Copy !req
761. then the oxygen will be sucked
out of this vacuum
Copy !req
762. and you will know
what it's like to be in space.
Copy !req
763. Go!
Copy !req
764. Depressed in 30 seconds.
Copy !req
765. Main valves have been activated.
Copy !req
766. Vacuum P.S.I.s are open.
Copy !req
767. Okay, gentlemen,
so here's the flight plan.
Copy !req
768. Now, let's keep the laughter
to a minimum.
Copy !req
769. I know this is not to scale.
Copy !req
770. Both shuttles will take off
Tuesday at 6:30 p. M.
Copy !req
771. Now, 67 minutes later,
Copy !req
772. you're gonna dock with
the Russian space station
Copy !req
773. to meet cosmonaut Andropov
Copy !req
774. who will refuel the shuttles
with liquid O2.
Copy !req
775. That's your fuel. Then you'll release
Copy !req
776. and take a 60-hour trip
toward the moon.
Copy !req
777. Now, we only have one shot
of landing on this rock
Copy !req
778. and that's precisely when the asteroid
passes by the moon.
Copy !req
779. You'll then use lunar gravity
and burn your thrusters,
Copy !req
780. slingshotting you around the moon
Copy !req
781. coming up behind the asteroid.
Copy !req
782. - You'll be upward of 11 G's.
- Yeah, I remember this one.
Copy !req
783. It's where the coyote sat
his ass down in a slingshot
Copy !req
784. then he strapped himself
to an Acme rocket.
Copy !req
785. - Is that what we're doing here?
- Rockhound.
Copy !req
786. No, no, really,
because it didn't work out
Copy !req
787. - too well for the coyote, Harry.
- Hey, Rock.
Copy !req
788. - Remember that one?
- Well, actually,
Copy !req
789. we have a lot better rockets
than the coyote.
Copy !req
790. Now, when you've finished
your Road Runner thrust move
Copy !req
791. you'll be moving
at 22,500 miles per hour.
Copy !req
792. Coming around behind the asteroid,
where we're hoping
Copy !req
793. that the tail debris'll be cleared
by the moon's gravity.
Copy !req
794. And you'll land right here. That's it.
Copy !req
795. We got separate landing sites
for each team.
Copy !req
796. Softest parts of the rock
as we can figure.
Copy !req
797. At NASA: we don't take chances.
We double up on everything.
Copy !req
798. First team that hits 800 feet wins.
Copy !req
799. Now this rock is big, it's dense,
Copy !req
800. it's got some gravity.
You can walk around.
Copy !req
801. But use your thrusters
so you can work easier.
Copy !req
802. Okay, Mr. Truman, let's say that
we actually do land on this.
Copy !req
803. What's it gonna be like up there?
Copy !req
804. Two hundred degrees in the sunlight.
Minus 200 in the shade.
Copy !req
805. Canyons of razor-sharp rock.
Unpredictable gravitational conditions.
Copy !req
806. Unexpected eruptions. Things like that.
Copy !req
807. Okay, so the scariest
environment imaginable. Thanks.
Copy !req
808. That's all you gotta say,
scariest environment imaginable.
Copy !req
809. Okay, so you drill,
you drop the nuke, and you leave.
Copy !req
810. Now, here's the key,
Copy !req
811. you're gonna remote detonate
the bomb
Copy !req
812. before the asteroid passes
this plane, Zero Barrier.
Copy !req
813. You do that, and the remaining
pieces of rock
Copy !req
814. should be deflected enough
to pass right by us.
Copy !req
815. Now, if the bomb explodes
after Zero Barrier,
Copy !req
816. game's over.
Copy !req
817. Apollo, this is Houston.
Fire your rockets.
Copy !req
818. Okay, your rockets are maximum.
Copy !req
819. - Beautiful boost.
- Oscar!
Copy !req
820. Hey, Harry. Hey, how's it going?
Copy !req
821. Have you seen Grace?
Copy !req
822. Yeah,
she's over in the hangar with A.J.
Copy !req
823. Harry, wait a second.
Did you say Grace?
Copy !req
824. Okay, I thought you said Bear.
Copy !req
825. Will you marry me?
Copy !req
826. Grace is old enough to vote, Harry.
Copy !req
827. She's old enough to drink
Copy !req
828. or get married if she wants,
get a divorce.
Copy !req
829. Let me tell you something, fellows.
Copy !req
830. When I get back,
when we get this job done,
Copy !req
831. I will deal with this in my own way.
Copy !req
832. Come on, Harry.
It's not like I'm rooting for A.J. here.
Copy !req
833. I'm just saying,
Grace is not a little girl anymore.
Copy !req
834. Hey, Rock, you know, wait a minute.
Copy !req
835. Let me get a pencil
and a piece of paper.
Copy !req
836. I wanna jot down all your pearls
of wisdom here.
Copy !req
837. Get serious, Harry. Come on.
Copy !req
838. While we're off trotting the globe,
hunting mud,
Copy !req
839. Gracie grew up to become
a full-blown hottie, you know?
Copy !req
840. - Harry, she is fully hot. She is...
- She's a babe.
Copy !req
841. Max, Max, okay. You're talking
about my little girl, all right?
Copy !req
842. I think I know who
and what she is, okay?
Copy !req
843. Okay, but Harry, all we're saying is,
Copy !req
844. we're talking about a kid
who's coming into her own right now.
Copy !req
845. And she's getting curious
about her body
Copy !req
846. and she's exploring her sexuality.
And you know what?
Copy !req
847. - Oscar.
- That's a natural thing.
Copy !req
848. You are about five minutes
older than Grace is.
Copy !req
849. Why should I listen to you?
Copy !req
850. And I know what it feels like
to have your hormones
Copy !req
851. pulling you in just, you know,
Copy !req
852. a thousand different directions
you don't know which end is up.
Copy !req
853. Yo, Harry, no disrespect, man,
but we all helped to raise her.
Copy !req
854. So, in part, we all feel
like a bunch of daddies here.
Copy !req
855. That's true.
Copy !req
856. I'll be damned if I worked
all these years
Copy !req
857. so my little girl can marry a roughneck.
Copy !req
858. She's better than that.
Copy !req
859. Better than all of us.
Copy !req
860. Harry, just sit back, relax.
Copy !req
861. I'm gonna put on a little free
Armadillo driving clinic for you.
Copy !req
862. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hey!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Copy !req
863. Two shuttle teams.
Copy !req
864. A.J.'ll be running the drill team
with Oscar,
Copy !req
865. Bear and Noonan
on the Independence.
Copy !req
866. I'll run the drill team on Freedom
with Chick, Rockhound and Max.
Copy !req
867. Once we land, we'll have eight hours
to get the job done.
Copy !req
868. In order to split this rock
on the fault line,
Copy !req
869. we're gonna have to drill to 800 feet.
Copy !req
870. Let's get our game faces on.
Now it's time for underwater simulation.
Copy !req
871. Come on, Independence.
Copy !req
872. Keep it up. Let's go.
We're the younger team here.
Copy !req
873. We're on the varsity team.
Take it to 11,000.
Copy !req
874. Okay, gentlemen,
we're gonna trick them up.
Copy !req
875. My computer will simulate
a gas pocket
Copy !req
876. at 625 feet
and then hard iron ferrite at 635.
Copy !req
877. I'm gonna draw up some more O2 in.
We're taking her up.
Copy !req
878. - I'm giving it more torque right now.
- All right, looking good, Bear.
Copy !req
879. Clamp it down. Watch your time,
Independence team.
Copy !req
880. Thanks, Harry. Would you mind
letting me run my own team?
Copy !req
881. You're gonna blow the tranny, A.J.
Slow it down, baby.
Copy !req
882. Take it easy, Bear.
Just relax. She can handle it.
Copy !req
883. A.J., you're at 600 feet.
Copy !req
884. Your pipe is long.
Let's back the R.P.M.s down to 8,000.
Copy !req
885. - We don't have time for 8,000!
- A.J., take it back down.
Copy !req
886. You're gonna snap the pipe.
I don't wanna blow this transmission.
Copy !req
887. - Damn it, 11,000.
- Slow it down, A.J.
Copy !req
888. Bear, come on.
Get on our team for a little bit.
Copy !req
889. Whoa, space cowboy.
Copy !req
890. - Harry, are you listening to this?
- Yeah, I'm listening, Bear.
Copy !req
891. Harry? You don't work for Harry
anymore, okay?
Copy !req
892. Out there you gotta listen to me.
Copy !req
893. When we're on that rock,
you gotta do what I say.
Copy !req
894. Now send more to the turbine.
I'm throttling up to 11,000.
Copy !req
895. A.J., back it off.
You're gonna blow the transmission.
Copy !req
896. Hey, Harry, would you let me
run my team, please?
Copy !req
897. R.P.M.s are at red line.
Copy !req
898. Bear, goddamn it,
I know what I'm doing.
Copy !req
899. Come on. She can handle this.
She'll be fine. Trust me.
Copy !req
900. A.J., back the R...
Copy !req
901. - Transmission overload.
- Number one transmission is down.
Copy !req
902. Son of a... The computer's
wrong, and you know that.
Copy !req
903. - We did the right thing.
- We're gonna restart the simulation.
Copy !req
904. If you wanna replace a member
of the crew, now is the time.
Copy !req
905. I'll take care of this.
Get him out of the tank, Chick.
Copy !req
906. You wanna go home? Is that it?
Copy !req
907. - You wanna be fired?
- No, I don't.
Copy !req
908. My crew was doing the right thing.
Copy !req
909. - Your crew?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
910. Your crewjust blew the transmission,
A.J.!
Copy !req
911. Listen, that NASA computer
is just playing it safe.
Copy !req
912. The machine you built,
the rig, could do it.
Copy !req
913. Shut up. Just shut up!
Shut your mouth!
Copy !req
914. Those men in that room
have zero tolerance
Copy !req
915. for showing off, hot dogging,
Copy !req
916. going by your gut instinct
or you trying to be a hero, you got that?
Copy !req
917. - Say the words, A.J.!
- I got it!
Copy !req
918. I want my men to have
tomorrow night off.
Copy !req
919. - What do you mean "off"?
- I mean, off.
Copy !req
920. Out of here. For at least 10 hours.
Then we'll go to Kennedy.
Copy !req
921. Well, there's no possible
way we can do that, Harry.
Copy !req
922. That's a potentially huge security risk.
Copy !req
923. What if they talk?
What if they get hurt?
Copy !req
924. What if they're too burned out
to do the right thing?
Copy !req
925. What if they get up there, and they
forget what they're fighting for?
Copy !req
926. You see what's going on up there.
These boys are ready to snap.
Copy !req
927. They didn't ask to be here.
They got pulled off the street.
Copy !req
928. For all we know, tomorrow night could
be the last night they ever see Earth.
Copy !req
929. I don't think it's too much to ask
Copy !req
930. to let them spend it with their families.
Copy !req
931. Well, listen, there's no possible
Copy !req
932. - way we can do that...
- You got family, Colonel?
Copy !req
933. Two girls.
Copy !req
934. Wouldn't you like to spend
tomorrow night with your little girls?
Copy !req
935. I'm not asking you. I'm telling you.
Copy !req
936. Make this happen.
Copy !req
937. This is a pretty big loan.
Why don't you count the cash?
Copy !req
938. Nah, this looks like 100 grand to me.
Copy !req
939. I'm giving you this at 60 percent.
I hope you know what you're doing
Copy !req
940. because I'll bust your head
with a sledgehammer.
Copy !req
941. - You'll get your money back.
- You don't look too healthy.
Copy !req
942. You're not gonna die on me, are you?
Copy !req
943. Let's just say, no more than you are.
Thanks, Vic.
Copy !req
944. Don't wanna close my eyes
Copy !req
945. I don't wanna fall asleep
Copy !req
946. 'Cause I'd miss you, baby
Copy !req
947. And I don't wanna miss a thing
Copy !req
948. - You know what I was thinking?
- What?
Copy !req
949. I really don't think
that the animal cracker
Copy !req
950. - qualifies as a cracker.
- Why?
Copy !req
951. Well, 'cause it's sweet,
which to me suggests cookie.
Copy !req
952. And, you know,
putting cheese on something
Copy !req
953. is sort of the defining characteristic
of what makes a cracker a cracker.
Copy !req
954. I don't know why I thought of that.
I just...
Copy !req
955. Baby, you have such sweet pillow talk.
Copy !req
956. I got a little animal cracker,
Copy !req
957. Discovery Channel thing
happening right here.
Copy !req
958. Watch the gazelle as he grazes
through the open plains.
Copy !req
959. Now look as the cheetah approaches.
Copy !req
960. Watch as he stalks his prey.
Copy !req
961. Now, the gazelle's a little spooked
Copy !req
962. and he could head north
to the ample sustenance
Copy !req
963. provided by the mountainous
peaks above.
Copy !req
964. He could go south.
Copy !req
965. The gazelle now faces man's
most perilous question,
Copy !req
966. north, or
Copy !req
967. south?
Copy !req
968. Way down under.
Copy !req
969. Tune in next week.
Copy !req
970. Baby,
Copy !req
971. do you think it's possible
that anyone else in the world
Copy !req
972. is doing this very same thing
at this very same moment?
Copy !req
973. I hope so.
Copy !req
974. Otherwise,
what the hell are we trying to save?
Copy !req
975. Don't wanna close my eyes
Copy !req
976. I don't wanna fall asleep
'cause I'd miss you, baby
Copy !req
977. And I don't wanna miss a thing
Copy !req
978. Hey.
Copy !req
979. - What are you doing here?
- I was just passing by on the...
Copy !req
980. I came...
Copy !req
981. - Who's he?
- That man's a salesman.
Copy !req
982. Would you go inside?
Copy !req
983. Thank you.
Copy !req
984. He got big.
Copy !req
985. You can't come around like this.
Copy !req
986. The court says you can't.
It confuses him.
Copy !req
987. No, I know. I just...
Copy !req
988. I wanted to say that I'm sorry
Copy !req
989. about everything, and...
Copy !req
990. I got something coming up.
Copy !req
991. It's something kind of big.
You just might be proud of me.
Copy !req
992. Would you do something for me?
Would you just give him this?
Copy !req
993. You don't have to... You don't have to
tell him who it's from. Just...
Copy !req
994. Everybody talking about
what it is, what it ain't
Copy !req
995. Kiss on the devil
and you piss off a saint
Copy !req
996. But it can't be love
if you don't have to crawl
Copy !req
997. You say you don't need nothing
but you got to have it all
Copy !req
998. Come back here!
Copy !req
999. - Hey, Noonan, you need 10 grand?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1000. We gotta put these girls
through college.
Copy !req
1001. - I love this astronaut stuff.
- All right!
Copy !req
1002. Good work if you can get it.
Copy !req
1003. Yeah, I'm just in town doing
a little astronaut training.
Copy !req
1004. Sí. I'm a mission specialist.
Copy !req
1005. - Yes, and what's that mean?
- I don't know.
Copy !req
1006. Hey! Who the hell
do you think you guys are?
Copy !req
1007. You're hogging all the action.
Copy !req
1008. Hey, pinhead.
Why don't you go find your own party?
Copy !req
1009. Why don't you spread the wealth, pal?
Copy !req
1010. Here.
Why don't you go buy yourself a neck?
Copy !req
1011. Hey, Mr. Clean!
Copy !req
1012. - Man! Call NASA!
- Get over there.
Copy !req
1013. - They'll confirm it! We're astronauts!
- Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
1014. - Yeah, we're astronauts.
- Yeah, we're all astronauts.
Copy !req
1015. You are so messing with
national security right now, man.
Copy !req
1016. - Turn around.
- You are fired tomorrow morning.
Copy !req
1017. I'm telling you.
I'll get the CIA and the FBI.
Copy !req
1018. You'll be working security
at Toys 'R' Us.
Copy !req
1019. - Baby. No, no. No, no!
- Bye-bye, little astronaut.
Copy !req
1020. - It's time to go now.
- Don't leave, baby. No, no.
Copy !req
1021. You see, I'm going into space,
Copy !req
1022. - and I'm not coming back.
- No, no, no.
Copy !req
1023. - It's coming in at 30,000 miles an hour!
- Give me a projected impact.
Copy !req
1024. - East Asia, 11 minutes.
- We're gonna have to warn...
Copy !req
1025. Warn who? The entire South Pacific?
Copy !req
1026. So the whole world knows.
Copy !req
1027. Tell me you've never
let anybody down before.
Copy !req
1028. I never quit yet. How's that?
Copy !req
1029. I guess that'll have to do.
Copy !req
1030. You know something?
Copy !req
1031. I still remember the first,
middle and last name
Copy !req
1032. of every guy that qualified
Copy !req
1033. for the astronaut program
the first year I was here.
Copy !req
1034. Thanks.
I went into the engineering program.
Copy !req
1035. Kind of had to.
But, boy, I wanted to go up there.
Copy !req
1036. I wanted to be one of those guys
with a mission patch on my arm.
Copy !req
1037. I tell you, I'd be on that shuttle with you,
Harry, if I could.
Copy !req
1038. You don't want to be up in that
shuttle any more than I do.
Copy !req
1039. Well, good luck in Florida tomorrow.
Copy !req
1040. The death of 50,000 people
Copy !req
1041. in Shanghai yesterday
has rattled the...
Copy !req
1042. A French satellite has tracked
an object in space...
Copy !req
1043. Sources are estimating
Copy !req
1044. that the tidal wave was five...
Copy !req
1045. This is CNN, live in Florida.
Copy !req
1046. We have just learned that NASA is on
a full-scale military alert.
Copy !req
1047. They're calling this a global killer.
Copy !req
1048. The government has been very
tight-lipped throughout this...
Copy !req
1049. The Pentagon is getting involved
at this point with some kind
Copy !req
1050. of a project involving NASA
and perhaps a shuttle mission...
Copy !req
1051. Senior Pentagon officials
refused comment
Copy !req
1052. adding fuel to the speculation that
there could be a very serious problem.
Copy !req
1053. We have a special team of astronauts
that arrived in Florida this evening.
Copy !req
1054. NASA's in emergency
launch preparation
Copy !req
1055. in cooperation with Russian,
Copy !req
1056. Japanese and French
space agencies
Copy !req
1057. on the most massive
joint space venture in history.
Copy !req
1058. Gracie?
Copy !req
1059. Got your note.
Copy !req
1060. - What are you doing out here, honey?
- Just thinking.
Copy !req
1061. - Yeah.
- I want to apologize to you for...
Copy !req
1062. Oh, no, Grace. Stop.
You don't have to apologize at all. I...
Copy !req
1063. I...
Copy !req
1064. I shouldn't have dragged you around
on all those oil rigs. I just...
Copy !req
1065. I don't think that I did
the right thing with you.
Copy !req
1066. - You're wrong.
- You see...
Copy !req
1067. I love my life.
Copy !req
1068. I love everything about my life
Copy !req
1069. and I don't blame you
for my mother leaving.
Copy !req
1070. She left us both.
Copy !req
1071. And... And I love you.
Copy !req
1072. And don't talk
like you're not coming back.
Copy !req
1073. Promise me that you'll come back.
Copy !req
1074. - Okay.
- Say, "I promise. "
Copy !req
1075. I promise, Grace.
Copy !req
1076. It's gonna be all right, Grace.
Copy !req
1077. If it's not too much trouble,
Copy !req
1078. can you please bring my fiancé
home with you?
Copy !req
1079. Jesus.
Copy !req
1080. The president will be
addressing the nation
Copy !req
1081. and all of you personally
within the hour.
Copy !req
1082. Astronauts.
Copy !req
1083. I'll see you in a couple days, honey.
Copy !req
1084. All my bags are packed
Copy !req
1085. I'm ready to go
Copy !req
1086. I'm standing here outside your door
Copy !req
1087. I hate to wake you up
Copy !req
1088. To say good-bye
Copy !req
1089. So kiss me and smile for me
Copy !req
1090. Let me know you'll wait for me
Copy !req
1091. Hold me like you'll never let me go
Copy !req
1092. 'Cause I'm leaving
Copy !req
1093. On a jet plane
Copy !req
1094. Don't know when I'll be back again
Copy !req
1095. Leaving on a jet plane
Copy !req
1096. I don't know when I'll be back again
Copy !req
1097. - Leaving on a jet plane
- Leaving on a jet plane
Copy !req
1098. I don't know when I'll be back again
Copy !req
1099. Leaving on a jet plane
Copy !req
1100. So, Truman, this is who you found
to save the planet.
Copy !req
1101. Don't know when I'll be back again...
Copy !req
1102. Frost, you good to go?
Copy !req
1103. One... One sec.
Copy !req
1104. That boy don't take anything seriously.
Copy !req
1105. Leaving on a jet plane
Copy !req
1106. Yeah.
Copy !req
1107. Reminds me of a guy I used to know.
Copy !req
1108. Don't know when I'll be back again
Copy !req
1109. Leaving on a jet plane
Copy !req
1110. I don't know when I'll be back again
Copy !req
1111. I'm marrying you.
Copy !req
1112. Bet your ass you are.
Copy !req
1113. Leaving on a jet plane
Copy !req
1114. I don't know
when I'll be back again
Copy !req
1115. I address you tonight
Copy !req
1116. not as the president
of the United States,
Copy !req
1117. not as the leader of a country,
Copy !req
1118. but as a citizen of humanity.
Copy !req
1119. We are faced with the very
gravest of challenges.
Copy !req
1120. The Bible calls this day Armageddon,
the end of all things.
Copy !req
1121. And yet, for the first time
Copy !req
1122. in the history of the planet,
Copy !req
1123. a species has the technology
Copy !req
1124. to prevent its own extinction.
Copy !req
1125. All of you praying with us
need to know
Copy !req
1126. that everything that can be done
to prevent this disaster
Copy !req
1127. is being called into service.
Copy !req
1128. The human thirst for excellence
Copy !req
1129. and knowledge
Copy !req
1130. every step up the ladder of science,
Copy !req
1131. every adventurous reach into space.
Copy !req
1132. all of our combined modern
technologies and imaginations,
Copy !req
1133. even the wars that we've fought,
have provided us the tools
Copy !req
1134. to wage this terrible battle.
Copy !req
1135. Through all the chaos
that is our history,
Copy !req
1136. through all of the wrongs
and the discord,
Copy !req
1137. through all of the pain and suffering,
Copy !req
1138. through all of our times
there is one thing,
Copy !req
1139. - that has nourished our souls...
- Mom, that salesman's on TV.
Copy !req
1140. and elevated our species
above its origins
Copy !req
1141. and that is our courage.
Copy !req
1142. The dreams of an entire planet
are focused tonight
Copy !req
1143. on those 14 brave souls
Copy !req
1144. traveling into the heavens.
Copy !req
1145. That man's not a salesman.
That's your daddy.
Copy !req
1146. And may we all,
citizens the world over,
Copy !req
1147. see these events through.
Copy !req
1148. Godspeed and good luck to you.
Copy !req
1149. Freedom crew. Independence crew.
Copy !req
1150. - How you feeling?
- Good, you know.
Copy !req
1151. I mean, considering I've never been
this scared in my entire life.
Copy !req
1152. I... You know...
Copy !req
1153. Listen, once you get up there,
you're gonna be on your own.
Copy !req
1154. If anything should happen,
I just wanted...
Copy !req
1155. I know, Harry.
I'll try not to disappoint you.
Copy !req
1156. Take care of yourself, kid.
Copy !req
1157. Freedom's on the bridge.
Copy !req
1158. Attention in the firing room.
The oxidizer loading is complete.
Copy !req
1159. - Independence on the bridge.
- Attention all personnel.
Copy !req
1160. We are T minus two hours
to the program goal.
Copy !req
1161. - Hey, Harry.
- Yeah, Rock?
Copy !req
1162. You know, we're sitting on
four million pounds of fuel,
Copy !req
1163. one nuclear weapon
Copy !req
1164. and a thing that has
270,000 moving parts
Copy !req
1165. built by the lowest bidder.
Copy !req
1166. - Makes you feel good, doesn't it?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1167. - How you doing, Oscar?
- Great.
Copy !req
1168. - Yeah?
- I got that excited, scared feeling,
Copy !req
1169. like 98% excited, 2% scared.
Copy !req
1170. Maybe it's more.
Copy !req
1171. It could be 2... It could be 98% scared,
2% excited.
Copy !req
1172. But that's what makes it so intense,
is it's so confused.
Copy !req
1173. I can't really figure it out.
Copy !req
1174. Will you make mine really tight,
Copy !req
1175. - 'cause I don't want to fall out.
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1176. I mean, almost to the point of
cutting off circulation.
Copy !req
1177. It must be a comfort to know
Copy !req
1178. that if the space program
goes under you
Copy !req
1179. can always get a job
at Helga's House of Pain, huh?
Copy !req
1180. All right, flight directors,
I want the go/no-go for launch. Retro.
Copy !req
1181. - Go flight.
- Booster.
Copy !req
1182. - Go flight.

this is Kennedy firing room.
Copy !req
1191. We're T minus one minute.
Copy !req
1192. All crew members,
close and lock your visors.
Copy !req
1193. Independence, this is launch control.
Be advised, we're in a smooth count.
Copy !req
1194. T minus 31.
You're go for auto-sequence start.
Copy !req
1195. P.L.T.s, perform your A.D.U. pre-start.
Copy !req
1196. Okay, gentlemen,
you're our warriors up there.
Copy !req
1197. God be with you.
Copy !req
1198. You're already heroes.
Just sit back and enjoy the ride.
Copy !req
1199. F.T.D., we're clear to launch.
Copy !req
1200. We're T minus 20 seconds.
Copy !req
1201. Ten, nine, eight, seven...
Copy !req
1202. four, three, two, one.
Copy !req
1203. We have main engine start.
Copy !req
1204. - We have booster ignition.
- We're going.
Copy !req
1205. And liftoff.
Copy !req
1206. Freedom, this is flight deck.
Copy !req
1207. Roger, Freedom. You're looking good.
Copy !req
1208. - We have go for Independence.
- Three, two, one.
Copy !req
1209. Independence,
we have booster ignition.
Copy !req
1210. We have liftoff.
Copy !req
1211. We are cooking, Houston.
Copy !req
1212. Houston, the tower is clear.
They're all yours.
Copy !req
1213. Heads up, everybody.
They're ours now.
Copy !req
1214. All engines are go.
Copy !req
1215. Keep a sharp eye out on both of them.
Copy !req
1216. Start roll maneuver.
Copy !req
1217. - Two good roll programs.
- One down.
Copy !req
1218. Independence, we have a max cue.
Copy !req
1219. Roger, Control. We are a max cue.
Copy !req
1220. S.R.B. sep...
Copy !req
1221. - We are single-engine, press, demi-go.
- Copy, press, demi-go.
Copy !req
1222. Houston, this is a kick-ass ride!
Copy !req
1223. Freedom, this is Houston.
Main engine cut out on schedule. Out.
Copy !req
1224. Freedom, stats are good.
Copy !req
1225. Independence,
telemetry is up and running...
Copy !req
1226. Oh, my God!
Copy !req
1227. This is space! 'Course, we're just
in the beginning part of space.
Copy !req
1228. We... We haven't even gotten
to outer space yet.
Copy !req
1229. Roger, Houston. We have a visual
on the Russian space station.
Copy !req
1230. Initiating retro burn.
Copy !req
1231. Gentlemen,
remember the Russian space station
Copy !req
1232. has been up there for 11 years.
Copy !req
1233. Most of us don't have cars that old.
Copy !req
1234. Now, the cosmonaut on board
Copy !req
1235. has been on that tin can
for 18 months, alone.
Copy !req
1236. So don't be surprised if he's a little off.
Copy !req
1237. Independence, we're gonna put you...
Copy !req
1238. All right, crew.
Let's exit these flight suits.
Copy !req
1239. Hello. This is Russian space station.
Can you hear me?
Copy !req
1240. We copy, Russian space station.
This is Houston.
Copy !req
1241. I'm ready to fire my thrusters any time.
Copy !req
1242. - Stand by.
- Okay. I'm not going anywhere.
Copy !req
1243. We have a go.
Initiate gravitational spin.
Copy !req
1244. You are maxed at 40% spin.
Copy !req
1245. Okay, Houston.
Copy !req
1246. I can feel I'm having gravity.
Copy !req
1247. All right, gentlemen.
We're gonna dock in a minute.
Copy !req
1248. Now, the Russian space station
has fired her rockets
Copy !req
1249. to simulate gravity
and let us work faster.
Copy !req
1250. But it's gonna make you queasy,
so prepare yourself.
Copy !req
1251. Well, it's about time.
I haven't thrown up in about an hour.
Copy !req
1252. Initiating first phase
of docking procedure.
Copy !req
1253. - Switching to manual.
- Manual override.
Copy !req
1254. One foot per second.
Copy !req
1255. Let's take this slow
and do it right, folks. 20 feet.
Copy !req
1256. Ten feet. Looking good on radar.
Copy !req
1257. Five feet.
Copy !req
1258. Locks are engaged.
Fuel teams, let's go.
Copy !req
1259. Freedom, telemetry is looking good.
Copy !req
1260. - We have soft dock.
- Fuel teams, prepare to unload.
Copy !req
1261. All right, gentlemen, watch your heads.
Let's go, Independence.
Copy !req
1262. Colonel.
Copy !req
1263. Where is he? Anybody home?
Copy !req
1264. Welcome, everybody!
Copy !req
1265. I am not gas station.
This is sophisticated laboratory.
Copy !req
1266. I'm in charge.
So do not be touching anything.
Copy !req
1267. - I need one... I need you.
- Go with him.
Copy !req
1268. I need you. Hurry up. Hurry up.
Come on. Come on.
Copy !req
1269. It's very important
you watch the fuel gauge, okay?
Copy !req
1270. Put on cold suit.
Copy !req
1271. - Countdown clock will hold at...
- Copy that, Houston.
Copy !req
1272. Prepping for fuel transfer.
Copy !req
1273. Countdown clock will hold
at T minus 20 minutes and...
Copy !req
1274. - Fuel pod is down there.
- It's down here, huh? Great.
Copy !req
1275. Let's go. Move it on.
Here we go. We go. We go.
Copy !req
1276. Bring it down. Right there.
Copy !req
1277. Okay, let's connect these fuel lines.
Copy !req
1278. Freedom on the left,
Independence on the right.
Copy !req
1279. All right. We're going left here.
Copy !req
1280. To the right is fuel gauge.
You watch the fuel gauge.
Copy !req
1281. One-fifty, okay. 160, okay.
200, bad disaster for space station.
Copy !req
1282. So if you watch 200,
you can call for Lev, on,
Copy !req
1283. and you see here number one, on.
You ask for Lev.
Copy !req
1284. And you pull this down,
all the way down.
Copy !req
1285. What's Lev?
Copy !req
1286. I am Lev Andropov,
colonel of Russian space agency.
Copy !req
1287. In Russia I'm a very big man.
Copy !req
1288. - We're ready to transfer.
- I'm coming. No problem.
Copy !req
1289. You. You. You there!
Copy !req
1290. - Hard locked.
- Ready for transfusion!
Copy !req
1291. Fuel is pumping.
Copy !req
1292. Hey, Lev, the...
The pressure's climbing.
Copy !req
1293. Is there a problem here?
Copy !req
1294. Houston, we're on fuel transference.
Copy !req
1295. Don't touch my uncle. You know?
He's a genius of my family.
Copy !req
1296. Lev! Can anybody hear me?
Guys? Hello, guys.
Copy !req
1297. He used to work for a big bomb factory.
Copy !req
1298. He used to make the tip of the bomb,
the thing that finds
Copy !req
1299. New York or Washington, you know?
Copy !req
1300. Check your hoses.
We got some thermal variation.
Copy !req
1301. Stamper, let's look at the couplings
back on the shuttle.
Copy !req
1302. Okay. Shut down.
Copy !req
1303. - Guys!
- Hold on a second.
Copy !req
1304. What's that noise?
Copy !req
1305. Oh, no! God!
Copy !req
1306. - What is it?
- Leak! Leak! Leak!
Copy !req
1307. Get your men back to the shuttle! Go!
Copy !req
1308. Go on! Hurry up! Get out of there!
Copy !req
1309. You know, this really smarts!
Copy !req
1310. - Pull lever!
- This is the lever!
Copy !req
1311. - Colonel, we must get him out of there!
- A.J., come on out!
Copy !req
1312. Hurry! Hurry!
Copy !req
1313. Emergency! Break away!
Copy !req
1314. We got a fire in the fuel pod!
Copy !req
1315. - Come on!
- Come on! Get in here!
Copy !req
1316. A.J.'s stuck in the fuel pod!
Copy !req
1317. - We're losing it!
- Come on out of there!
Copy !req
1318. Control, this is Independence.
I am seeing vibration...
Copy !req
1319. Malloy, talk to me!
Copy !req
1320. Not good.
We got sparks and fire in the fuel pod.
Copy !req
1321. Independence, blow those locks
and get out of there now!
Copy !req
1322. - Dump the hoses now! We're going!
- What happened?
Copy !req
1323. - Let me shut off the O2 feed!
- Harry, it's burning up!
Copy !req
1324. Damn! Max, Rock, get in here!
Copy !req
1325. Get down there
and crack these pipes over here!
Copy !req
1326. - Harry, no! It's burning up!
- We're going back for the other team!
Copy !req
1327. Switch on the personnel locators.
Copy !req
1328. Tracking A.J. He's climbing.
Copy !req
1329. - No!
- Go! Go!
Copy !req
1330. It's too late! Get back to the shuttle!
This thing's gonna blow!
Copy !req
1331. No!
Copy !req
1332. Colonel, we gotta move now!
Come on! You wanna die?
Copy !req
1333. Wait a minute! Wait a minute!
We got a man in there!
Copy !req
1334. Open that door and we'll all die!
Copy !req
1335. - Fuel leak!
- Get out of there!
Copy !req
1336. Evac now! Let's go! Let's go!
Copy !req
1337. Come on back!
No, wait! The door is broken!
Copy !req
1338. No!
Copy !req
1339. They got the fire sealed in the fuel pod.
Copy !req
1340. - They locked it down.
- Tracking them back to the shuttle.
Copy !req
1341. They've still got two men trapped
in there!
Copy !req
1342. Keep running!
The shuttle's another 75 feet!
Copy !req
1343. Where's the rest of the team?
Copy !req
1344. - Let's get out of here!
- Wait, wait, wait! Where's A.J.?
Copy !req
1345. - A.J.'s gone!
- We're not leaving without A.J.!
Copy !req
1346. He's gone! It's too late!
Copy !req
1347. Come on! This way is our only chance!
Copy !req
1348. So it's minus 100!
Copy !req
1349. Very cold. Hold breath, or lung freezes!
Copy !req
1350. Get back to the shuttle!
And lock that door!
Copy !req
1351. - Come on!
- Hurry, A.J.!
Copy !req
1352. Leave him alone! Leave him alone!
Copy !req
1353. - I tried! I tried. But A.J...
- It's on fire! It's on fire, Harry!
Copy !req
1354. - It's them or all of us!
- It's on fire!
Copy !req
1355. - Full thrust.
- We're gonna get hit.
Copy !req
1356. Lev! Lev, the door's gonna blow!
Copy !req
1357. No!
Copy !req
1358. We're going! It's gonna blow!
Copy !req
1359. - A.J.'s still in there!
- Blow the locks. No, the bolts!
Copy !req
1360. - We've gotta blow...
- I think we're almost there!
Copy !req
1361. Flight Independence
does not have A.J.
Copy !req
1362. They're gonna close the door
without him.
Copy !req
1363. Tracking.
They're 75 feet from the shuttle.
Copy !req
1364. Just tell them to air lock the door
and go!
Copy !req
1365. - Dog the hatch now!
- Close it!
Copy !req
1366. Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Copy !req
1367. Colonel! That thing's coming right
for us! We got to move!
Copy !req
1368. Go! Go!
Copy !req
1369. Hurry up! There's the shuttle door!
Copy !req
1370. Fire's coming at us!
Close the door now!
Copy !req
1371. Go! Go! Go!
Copy !req
1372. Freedom, the Independence crew
is on board and accounted for.
Copy !req
1373. - We're even heavy one cosmonaut.
- They got 90% of their fuel.
Copy !req
1374. - Pretty intense, huh?
- That's why I told you, "Touch nothing. "
Copy !req
1375. But you're bunch of cowboys.
Copy !req
1376. So while the consciousness
of the planet is unified
Copy !req
1377. focused on the NASA mission
taking place right now
Copy !req
1378. in the vast ocean of space.
Copy !req
1379. We're now in the final hours
of the mission
Copy !req
1380. as the Freedom and Independence
prepare to slingshot around the moon.
Copy !req
1381. Morning, guys.
Copy !req
1382. It's time to suit up, I guess.
We got a big day.
Copy !req
1383. - Eighteen seconds to radio interrupt.
- Booster sequence confirmed.
Copy !req
1384. This is Houston.
Roger that, Freedom. We copy.
Copy !req
1385. Shuttles are ready
for the burn around the moon.
Copy !req
1386. Radio contact terminated. We're out.
Copy !req
1387. Nine and a half Gs for 11 minutes.
I'd start praying about right now.
Copy !req
1388. So this is the part where we're
supposed to just hold on real tight
Copy !req
1389. and hope we don't die.
Copy !req
1390. - Stand by for lunar roll.
- High inclination. Lunar orbit.
Copy !req
1391. You boys got those wills
filled out correctly?
Copy !req
1392. All right, men,
this is what we trained for.
Copy !req
1393. Now just suck it up!
Copy !req
1394. On the mark. Five, four, three, two, one.
Copy !req
1395. - Is this supposed to be like this?
- Don't worry. This is normal.
Copy !req
1396. - How would you know?
- 14,000 miles an hour.
Copy !req
1397. - Four Gs.
- How long does this last?
Copy !req
1398. Six Gs.
Copy !req
1399. Fifteen thousand.
Copy !req
1400. - Really heavy, man!
- This isn't normal.
Copy !req
1401. What do you mean,
"This isn't normal"?
Copy !req
1402. This is way worse!
Copy !req
1403. - Eight Gs. Hang tight!
- We're not gonna make it!
Copy !req
1404. We're gonna die!
Copy !req
1405. Twelve minutes.
Flight, we still got nothing here.
Copy !req
1406. This is too fast!
Copy !req
1407. Ten Gs!
Copy !req
1408. We're maxed at 22,500!
Copy !req
1409. We have acquisition of signal
from Independence and Freedom.
Copy !req
1410. We're in, guys.
All right. Welcome back, team.
Copy !req
1411. We have visual of the target, Houston.
Copy !req
1412. You see that?
Copy !req
1413. Wow.
Copy !req
1414. Come in, Independence.
Copy !req
1415. Houston, you gotta see this
to believe it.
Copy !req
1416. Okay, team, let's take them in.
Copy !req
1417. Okay, Quincy,
how much tail debris do we have?
Copy !req
1418. Freedom, turn on your FOD radar.
Copy !req
1419. FOD radar on.
Copy !req
1420. Everybody, hang on.
This could get a little rough.
Copy !req
1421. Engaging evasive radar.
Copy !req
1422. Hold on!
Copy !req
1423. Goddamn! We got debris!
Copy !req
1424. We're dumping auxiliary boosters.
Copy !req
1425. - Houston, do you read me...
- We got debris!
Copy !req
1426. - We're going in!
- We're coming in hot!
Copy !req
1427. Independence, try to maintain
your present heading.
Copy !req
1428. You've got a target L.Z.
Copy !req
1429. There's too much debris!
We gotta peel off!
Copy !req
1430. Negative!
Copy !req
1431. We're hit!
Copy !req
1432. Mayday, mayday!
Copy !req
1433. I've lost main thrusters.
Get them back up!
Copy !req
1434. Mayday, Houston, mayday!
We've lost R.C.S. thrusters!
Copy !req
1435. Mayday, Freedom, mayday!
Copy !req
1436. We are out of control!
We are going down!
Copy !req
1437. Do you read me?
Freedom, we are going down!
Copy !req
1438. We're gonna hit!
Copy !req
1439. Everybody, go to your own life support!
Lock yourself in the cargo bay!
Copy !req
1440. We are going down!
Copy !req
1441. Houston! Houston, we are going down!
We have lost control!
Copy !req
1442. I can't get it on!
Copy !req
1443. - Good luck, Freedom.
- Oh, my God, this is it.
Copy !req
1444. No! No!
Copy !req
1445. Pull it! Pull it! Go!
Copy !req
1446. Sharp, what the hell is that?
Is that the Independence?
Copy !req
1447. Houston, Independence
is a dead stick.
Copy !req
1448. They're not gonna make it.
Copy !req
1449. Houston, Independence
has gone down.
Copy !req
1450. When I touch this baby down,
full reverse thrust.
Copy !req
1451. - Fires on your right, Sharp!
- Reversing the thrusters!
Copy !req
1452. Hang tight! Hang tight!
Copy !req
1453. Houston, we overshot our landing field.
Copy !req
1454. - We overshot our landing field.
- Oh, no!
Copy !req
1455. God!
Copy !req
1456. Initiate system light system check.
Make sure we can still get off this rock.
Copy !req
1457. Our electrical system is screwed.
I'm going to back-up.
Copy !req
1458. Fuel seals check. Engine seals check.
Copy !req
1459. - Pressure seals check.
- God.
Copy !req
1460. - Anyone hurt?
- God.
Copy !req
1461. Where's... Where's the other shuttle?
What happened to the other shuttle?
Copy !req
1462. - Independence is off the grid.
- "Off the grid"?
Copy !req
1463. What are you, a freaking cyborg?
What does that mean?
Copy !req
1464. Hey, you saw it yourself, right?
They're gone.
Copy !req
1465. Come in, Freedom.
This is CAPCOM Houston.
Copy !req
1466. Freedom, come in.
Copy !req
1467. This is CAPCOM Houston.
Come in, Freedom.
Copy !req
1468. God!
Copy !req
1469. Let's just ask God
to take care of our friends.
Copy !req
1470. May they rest in peace.
Copy !req
1471. Amen.
Copy !req
1472. We got eight hours.
Copy !req
1473. Let's get this job done and go home.
Copy !req
1474. Nothing. Come on, Watts,
Sharp, somebody.
Copy !req
1475. This is CAPCOM Houston.
Copy !req
1476. Come in, Freedom. Freedom, come in.
This is CAPCOM Houston.
Copy !req
1477. - Maybe you shouldn't be here.
- Come in, Freedom.
Copy !req
1478. I don't have anywhere else to go.
Copy !req
1479. Freedom, come in.
This is CAPCOM Houston.
Copy !req
1480. All right, let's get the tools unpacked
and fire up the Armadillo.
Copy !req
1481. We're not getting a damn thing
on the inertial nav system.
Copy !req
1482. - I know where we are.
- Please step away.
Copy !req
1483. Radio signal's dead.
Copy !req
1484. I'm flipping the backup generator.
Copy !req
1485. Radio signal's gonna be cut in half
till we get main power back.
Copy !req
1486. We're in segment 202, lateral grid 9,
site 15H-32, give or take a few yards.
Copy !req
1487. Captain America here
blew the landing by 26 miles.
Copy !req
1488. - How the hell do you know that?
- Because I'm a genius.
Copy !req
1489. The gauges will not read.
Copy !req
1490. They're all peaked, like we're plugged
into some magnetic field.
Copy !req
1491. Well, who on this spaceship
wants to know why?
Copy !req
1492. - By all means.
- The reason we were shooting for grid 8
Copy !req
1493. was because
thermographics indicated
Copy !req
1494. that grid 9 was compressed iron ferrite.
Copy !req
1495. Which means you landed us
on a goddamn iron plate.
Copy !req
1496. All right. Well, you heard the man.
Copy !req
1497. Let's wheel out the remote satellite link.
We need that radio.
Copy !req
1498. God, please tell me
we still got one of them.
Copy !req
1499. Independence has flat-lined.
Copy !req
1500. Oscar! Oscar!
Copy !req
1501. God!
Copy !req
1502. Hello! Anyone! Is anyone else alive?
Somebody help me!
Copy !req
1503. A.J.!
Copy !req
1504. - Where are you?
- I'm here.
Copy !req
1505. Lev, there's no one else.
There's no one else.
Copy !req
1506. - I know.
- Oh, man.
Copy !req
1507. - Bear, where are you?
- A.J.! A.J.!
Copy !req
1508. - I'm in the shuttle, man.
- Bear.
Copy !req
1509. Are you all right?
Copy !req
1510. I'm so glad to see you, man.
Copy !req
1511. I never thought I'd be so happy
to see your ugly face.
Copy !req
1512. Houston, do you read?
Copy !req
1513. - This is Freedom.
- Check your thrusters.
Copy !req
1514. - Houston, do you copy?
- Is everyone good to go?
Copy !req
1515. Wow.
Copy !req
1516. Down here! In the valley!
Copy !req
1517. This place is like
Dr. Seuss' worst nightmare.
Copy !req
1518. Let's get the remote satellite.
We'll get better reception up there.
Copy !req
1519. Bring Max down.
Copy !req
1520. Watch yourself through here, Max.
There's a couple big fissures.
Copy !req
1521. To the left! Bring it to the left!
Copy !req
1522. Rockhound, you come on down here
Copy !req
1523. and take some readings
down in the flat spot.
Copy !req
1524. Iron ferrite.
Copy !req
1525. I have fire.
Copy !req
1526. Watts, I'm coming back. Stand by.
Copy !req
1527. - Mostly iron, Rockhound.
- God, I hate knowing everything.
Copy !req
1528. We couldn't have picked
a worse spot to drill.
Copy !req
1529. Well, I can pretty much guarantee
it's not gonna be thicker than 50 feet.
Copy !req
1530. - How do you figure that?
- 'Cause if it is, we're screwed.
Copy !req
1531. - Max, you good?
- Yeah. Just making hole.
Copy !req
1532. - Turn it around.
- Frigging outer space.
Copy !req
1533. It's good.
Copy !req
1534. All right. We're in. Bring another light.
We're cutting through pretty good.
Copy !req
1535. There's some stuff in here
I ain't never seen.
Copy !req
1536. All right, let's punch it down!
Copy !req
1537. - Hey, Harry, did you see that?
- Yeah, Max, I see it. I see it. What is it?
Copy !req
1538. - We lost the bite in the bit.
- All right. Back it off. Back it off.
Copy !req
1539. Goddamn it!
Copy !req
1540. Sounds like we twisted a shank.
Back it out of there, Max.
Copy !req
1541. Good. Good. Hold over there.
Copy !req
1542. Wow, this is
a goddamn Greek tragedy.
Copy !req
1543. We've all seen
broken drill heads before.
Copy !req
1544. Not after 10 feet.
Copy !req
1545. - I never seen one.
- Well, now you've seen one.
Copy !req
1546. - What do you want?
- Unpack the Judge.
Copy !req
1547. Bear, Lev.
Copy !req
1548. We're only three astronauts left now.
Copy !req
1549. We're not astronauts. We're oil drillers.
We're not even supposed to be here.
Copy !req
1550. What? You're not astronaut?
Copy !req
1551. - I'm getting us out of here. Get in.
- Why?
Copy !req
1552. Just get in the Armadillo.
I have an idea.
Copy !req
1553. Houston, this is Freedom.
Do you copy? Houston, do you copy?
Copy !req
1554. Freedom shuttle has...
Copy !req
1555. We're getting some scattered
video feeds here
Copy !req
1556. so we're gonna have to lead over.
Copy !req
1557. Houston, this is Freedom.
Do you copy?
Copy !req
1558. Thank God we have you, Freedom.
Copy !req
1559. - Freedom, this is Houston. Go ahead.
- Don't lose them, Malloy.
Copy !req
1560. Sir, we're getting something.
Copy !req
1561. Houston, this is Freedom.
We have landed safely.
Copy !req
1562. - We are at site coordinates...
- Where are they?
Copy !req
1563. approximately 15H-32.
Copy !req
1564. Okay, I want to know everything
we can about that location.
Copy !req
1565. - Got it.
- Get it before we lose them.
Copy !req
1566. We're also having electric
and antenna difficulties.
Copy !req
1567. Walter, get Mechanical on that.
Copy !req
1568. But we have commenced drilling.
Copy !req
1569. Stevens, we're losing him.
Bring it up on four.
Copy !req
1570. - Come on.
- On four.
Copy !req
1571. Shuttle flight capability not yet known.
Copy !req
1572. - Bump the signal.
- Bumping.
Copy !req
1573. Houston. Houston.
Copy !req
1574. We lost them. Get them back.
Gruber, we need that hookup.
Copy !req
1575. I'll show you how we do things
where I come from.
Copy !req
1576. Hold on!
Copy !req
1577. Seat it.
Copy !req
1578. All right, get ready. Max, thread it.
Copy !req
1579. Guys, the clock is ticking.
Let's go, go, go, go, go!
Copy !req
1580. All right! Good! Crank it loose!
Copy !req
1581. Keep it at 25.
Let's kick a little asteroid butt!
Copy !req
1582. All right, Chick. Give me more torque
on the turbine, huh?
Copy !req
1583. Max, I need some more
power down here!
Copy !req
1584. - All right, boss.
- Throw it forward,
Copy !req
1585. then drop the hammer.
Copy !req
1586. Let's drill through this turd.
Copy !req
1587. Come on, boys. We gotta hop.
We're falling behind.
Copy !req
1588. Dig, dig, dig. Chew this iron bitch up.
Copy !req
1589. - Chick, the tranny is stuck.
- Harry!
Copy !req
1590. - What is it?
- Chick, come on! Help!
Copy !req
1591. - Release the clutch!
- Pull it up!
Copy !req
1592. Okay. Well, this thing's not moving.
Copy !req
1593. No, no, no! Shut it down! Shut it...
Copy !req
1594. This is not working out, Harry.
Copy !req
1595. - Are you all right?
- Blew the tranny. Blew the tranny.
Copy !req
1596. Come on, God.
Copy !req
1597. Just a little help. That's all I'm asking.
Copy !req
1598. I think we're close enough.
He might've heard you.
Copy !req
1599. Here's the bad news.
Before the asteroid passed the moon,
Copy !req
1600. her rotation was stable
at 32 degrees on an X axis.
Copy !req
1601. But now look at this.
The lunar gravity's put her in a spin.
Copy !req
1602. She's tumbling on all three axes.
This wasn't expected, sir.
Copy !req
1603. What does this do
for communications?
Copy !req
1604. - Not good.
- We'll have definite contact
Copy !req
1605. with the shuttle
for only seven more minutes.
Copy !req
1606. - After that, it's radio darkness.
- For how long?
Copy !req
1607. And after seven minutes,
we may never hear from them again.
Copy !req
1608. But we're trying to bounce a signal
off a Russian military satellite,
Copy !req
1609. reestablish contact that way.
Copy !req
1610. If we lose the shuttle com,
Copy !req
1611. when do we lose the ability
to remote detonate that nuke?
Copy !req
1612. The weapon remote receives a signal
from a Milstar satellite.
Copy !req
1613. Higher orbit, more powerful transmitter.
Copy !req
1614. If we've got the shuttle
for seven minutes,
Copy !req
1615. we can remote detonate
for an additional five.
Copy !req
1616. What he's trying to say, General,
Copy !req
1617. is that in 12 minutes' time
you may lose the ability
Copy !req
1618. to detonate the nuke permanently.
Copy !req
1619. I've got to inform the President.
Copy !req
1620. Just want to make sure you know
we're stuck on an asteroid.
Copy !req
1621. - Do you know what you're doing now?
- No, no. You know what?
Copy !req
1622. I have no idea what I'm doing.
I have no idea.
Copy !req
1623. This button,
I don't know what that does, okay?
Copy !req
1624. All I know is
that we just crashed back there,
Copy !req
1625. I lost two of my friends,
we're 25 miles from Harry's shuttle.
Copy !req
1626. We don't know if he's alive.
We don't know if he can fly.
Copy !req
1627. All I know is there's a beep
on this thing
Copy !req
1628. and I'm trying to get us there.
Copy !req
1629. Let's get it unpacked.
Copy !req
1630. What's up?
Copy !req
1631. We're drilling through some kind
of metal I've never seen before.
Copy !req
1632. It's fried two of our drill bits,
and now we blew our first transmission.
Copy !req
1633. So how deep are we?
Copy !req
1634. We could use your help
with the transmission, Colonel.
Copy !req
1635. I have an assessment report due now.
We're supposed to be at 200 feet.
Copy !req
1636. So how deep are we?
Copy !req
1637. Not as deep as we'll be when you quit
asking me all these questions
Copy !req
1638. and help us load this transmission on.
Copy !req
1639. What is our current depth?
Copy !req
1640. Our current depth
is not important, Colonel.
Copy !req
1641. I'll decide what's important.
We've got 800 feet to drill.
Copy !req
1642. You've had two and a half hours.
Where are we?
Copy !req
1643. We're at 57 feet.
Now, if you're not too busy,
Copy !req
1644. maybe you can give us a hand
with this transmission.
Copy !req
1645. Colonel Sharp! Get this wrapped up.
I'll be right back. Colonel Sharp!
Copy !req
1646. All right. I'm coming through.
We have contact. Over.
Copy !req
1647. That's as clear as it's gonna get.
Copy !req
1648. Houston, this is Freedom.
Do you copy?
Copy !req
1649. Working at a remote satellite link
at this moment. Transmission change.
Copy !req
1650. - Colonel!
- Twenty minutes.
Copy !req
1651. Puts drilling final at 10 hours.
Copy !req
1652. Please advise.
That's four hours past the zero barrier.
Copy !req
1653. Please advise.
Copy !req
1654. What the hell is this? "Zero depth"?
Copy !req
1655. And where'd this come from?
Copy !req
1656. Who are you talking to?
Is that Truman?
Copy !req
1657. Let me have that phone.
Give me the phone.
Copy !req
1658. Truman! Look, this is what happens
when you drill.
Copy !req
1659. We cannot use your "U.S. Air Force
Personnel Only" drill time card.
Copy !req
1660. Who wrote this thing, by the way?
Copy !req
1661. - We're losing come again.
- Look... Is he getting this?
Copy !req
1662. Does he hear me or...
What's wrong with this?
Copy !req
1663. The com's down.
Copy !req
1664. What do you mean,
"The com's down"?
Copy !req
1665. What do I mean? I mean we've lost
communication to mission control.
Copy !req
1666. Fine. Let's go back to the cargo bay
and get the transmission repaired.
Copy !req
1667. Hey, Harry, guess what.
You had your shot. You didn't do it.
Copy !req
1668. You understand me? You can't...
Copy !req
1669. Why don't you stay here
and take your little drill card...
Copy !req
1670. Write a report, why don't you?
That'll be a...
Copy !req
1671. My men and I will go
and get this hole dug!
Copy !req
1672. You and your men are the biggest
mistake in the history of NASA:
Copy !req
1673. - We've lost communication.
- God.
Copy !req
1674. We're not looking too good right now.
Copy !req
1675. No shit.
We gotta get that radio back up.
Copy !req
1676. Mr. President,
it's time to make a decision.
Copy !req
1677. We can remote detonate the bomb
for only another five minutes.
Copy !req
1678. Yes? Kimsey here. Yes, Mr. President.
Copy !req
1679. Yes, we saw that, too, sir.
Copy !req
1680. But maybe we should wait until they...
Copy !req
1681. Dan, get them out of there.
Evac right now.
Copy !req
1682. What's going on here?
Copy !req
1683. I've been ordered
to override the system.
Copy !req
1684. Well, what is this?
Copy !req
1685. Secondary protocol.
Copy !req
1686. But they haven't drilled
the damn hole yet!
Copy !req
1687. The President's advisors
feel that the drilling isn't working.
Copy !req
1688. And we've lost radio contact,
maybe for good.
Copy !req
1689. We've only got a few minutes
left of guaranteed ability
Copy !req
1690. to remote detonate that nuke.
Copy !req
1691. If we don't do it now
we could lose control,
Copy !req
1692. and we may never get it back.
Copy !req
1693. Well, you tell the President that
he better fire his so-called advisors.
Copy !req
1694. And if you detonate that nuke
on the surface,
Copy !req
1695. we waste a perfectly good bomb
Copy !req
1696. and we have one chance
to save this planet!
Copy !req
1697. I need that radio.
Copy !req
1698. Gruber, give me everything
you got now!
Copy !req
1699. Roger that.
Copy !req
1700. Yes, Mr. President,
I understand that completely,
Copy !req
1701. but my point is very, very simple.
Copy !req
1702. And I think you need to trust me on this
because I know something about it.
Copy !req
1703. I guarantee you, if you do this,
you kill us all.
Copy !req
1704. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1705. General, he wants you.
Copy !req
1706. This is Kimsey. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1707. I understand.
Copy !req
1708. The orders are
to remote detonate in 30 seconds.
Copy !req
1709. You have not told them yet!
Copy !req
1710. That is my father up there!
Copy !req
1711. This is one order you shouldn't follow,
and you fucking know it!
Copy !req
1712. Let her go. Let her go!
Copy !req
1713. Your key, sir.
Copy !req
1714. God be with them.
Copy !req
1715. Slow it down.
Copy !req
1716. Harry, the clock on that nine-foot
nuclear weapon is ticking.
Copy !req
1717. Oh, my God! Sharp!
Get back here now!
Copy !req
1718. Watts, get the shuttle ready
to evac now!
Copy !req
1719. It just came on all by itself.
Copy !req
1720. - What the hell's happening?
- Secondary protocol.
Copy !req
1721. - What's that? What?
- Secondary protocol.
Copy !req
1722. - What does that mean?
- What the hell's secondary protocol?
Copy !req
1723. They're detonating this thing
from Earth.
Copy !req
1724. What do you mean, detonating?
We haven't even drilled the hole yet!
Copy !req
1725. - What are you talking about?
- The hole? Whoa, whoa!
Copy !req
1726. Get your helmets on now.
Copy !req
1727. No, no. How... How you turn it off?
Copy !req
1728. Colonel Sharp,
I got two men out on that rock.
Copy !req
1729. I got a man out there, too.
We gotta evac now!
Copy !req
1730. Max, Rockhound,
get back to the shuttle, double-time!
Copy !req
1731. They could be on their way here.
Copy !req
1732. They're not on their way here.
Copy !req
1733. They would've talked to us by now.
We would've seen them.
Copy !req
1734. - Watts, air lock the cockpit now!
- I copy you.
Copy !req
1735. - Max, Rockhound!
- Hey, wait a minute!
Copy !req
1736. - How do you turn this thing off?
- Max, Rockhound...
Copy !req
1737. - Harry, do you copy?
- Something's wrong.
Copy !req
1738. Yeah, it's all wrong, man.
We shouldn't even be up here.
Copy !req
1739. I know. Let's go back to the ship!
Copy !req
1740. I'm not leaving without my men, Sharp.
Copy !req
1741. We've got two and a half minutes
to drop it and get off this rock.
Copy !req
1742. If they're not back by the time we finish,
we leave without them.
Copy !req
1743. Okay, let's simplify this.
Let's just turn the bomb off right now.
Copy !req
1744. If we don't put this bomb down in a hole
800 feet onto a fault line,
Copy !req
1745. all you're gonna have
is a real expensive fireworks show.
Copy !req
1746. This is turning
into a surrealistic nightmare here.
Copy !req
1747. Watsler, are you listening? It's Truman.
Copy !req
1748. Okay, listen to me carefully.
I want you to kill it. Kill the uplink.
Copy !req
1749. Give us the time, Sharp.
Shut this bomb down now!
Copy !req
1750. - It's not my call.
- Then whose call is it?
Copy !req
1751. An order to detonate can only come
from the President.
Copy !req
1752. - The President's not here!
- Let's just turn it off now.
Copy !req
1753. You've gotta give us more time!
Copy !req
1754. I'm telling you
to shut this bomb down now!
Copy !req
1755. And I'm telling you it's not my call!
Copy !req
1756. Well, guess what?
I just made the call for you.
Copy !req
1757. Harry!
Copy !req
1758. Don't. You could set it off.
Copy !req
1759. Man. What are you doing
with a gun in space?
Copy !req
1760. Come on. Come on.
We gotta stop that bomb right now.
Copy !req
1761. Kill the uplink.
Copy !req
1762. This thing is gonna blow.
We gotta get it off the ship.
Copy !req
1763. - Easy.
- Stand down, Sergeant.
Copy !req
1764. Shut this bomb down
and let us finish ourjob the right way.
Copy !req
1765. I'm under orders
to protect a surface detonation.
Copy !req
1766. I'm gonna give you three seconds
to shut this bomb down,
Copy !req
1767. and then I'm gonna make you
shoot me.
Copy !req
1768. Hurry, Watsler.
For Christ's sake, hurry.
Copy !req
1769. What happened?
Copy !req
1770. Sir, the override... It's been overridden.
Copy !req
1771. I've bought us a couple of minutes,
Copy !req
1772. so get that radio working, okay?
Hurry, hurry!
Copy !req
1773. Bring me all the way up here
just to blow me and my friends up?
Copy !req
1774. Is that it?
Copy !req
1775. - Listen...
- Shut up!
Copy !req
1776. Shut up, Colonel. I'm talking now.
Copy !req
1777. It could start again.
It might've been a warning.
Copy !req
1778. That's why you are gonna dismantle
this bomb.
Copy !req
1779. All right. What'd we miss?
Copy !req
1780. - Do it again.
- Go.
Copy !req
1781. Keep trying.
Copy !req
1782. Sir, I need you to cease and desist.
I need your terminal now.
Copy !req
1783. - They're reactivating the bomb.
- Coming back online, sir.
Copy !req
1784. Oh, jeez. Here we go again.
Copy !req
1785. What are you doing up here?
Copy !req
1786. And why did you even bother
to make the trip?
Copy !req
1787. To do the right thing,
to see that it's done.
Copy !req
1788. For God's sakes,
think about what you're doing.
Copy !req
1789. Why are you listening to someone
that's 100,000 miles away?
Copy !req
1790. We're here.
Nobody down there can help us.
Copy !req
1791. So if we don't get this job done,
then everybody's gone.
Copy !req
1792. One minute.
Copy !req
1793. I've been drilling holes in the Earth
for 30 years.
Copy !req
1794. And I have never, never missed
a depth that I have aimed for.
Copy !req
1795. And by God, I am not gonna miss
this one. I will make 800 feet.
Copy !req
1796. 42 seconds.
Copy !req
1797. But I can't do it alone, Colonel.
I need your help.
Copy !req
1798. You swear on your daughter's life,
on my family's
Copy !req
1799. that you can hit that mark?
Copy !req
1800. I will make 800 feet.
I swear to God, I will.
Copy !req
1801. Then let's turn this bomb off.
Copy !req
1802. Steady. Steady. Take it back.
Copy !req
1803. That's what you'll have to do.
Get them off backwards.
Copy !req
1804. - Rainbow track? Under one? Under...
- All of them. All of them. All of them!
Copy !req
1805. - Okay. Okay. Are we free of static?
- Do a good job. Do a good job.
Copy !req
1806. - Steady. Steady.
- Good job.
Copy !req
1807. - All right. All right. All right.
- Go! Go! Go!
Copy !req
1808. Red wire "A." Ready? And now.
Copy !req
1809. Come on! Come on!
Come on! Come on!
Copy !req
1810. - Negative "B." Ready?
- Do a good job. Do a good job.
Copy !req
1811. - Track flipped. Hots in.
- It better be. Go.
Copy !req
1812. Red or blue?
Copy !req
1813. Wait...
Copy !req
1814. Blue.
Copy !req
1815. - Good job!
- You got it.
Copy !req
1816. God, it sucks up here.
Copy !req
1817. Sir, the clock has stopped
at three seconds.
Copy !req
1818. What?
Copy !req
1819. - Have we lost complete radio contact?
- I got some magic happening.
Copy !req
1820. We're bouncing off Russian
and French satellites.
Copy !req
1821. - It may have a faint signal.
- Houston? Houston, do you copy?
Copy !req
1822. Go ahead, Freedom.
Copy !req
1823. Houston, you have a problem...
Problem.
Copy !req
1824. See, I promised my little girl
that I'd be coming home.
Copy !req
1825. Now, I don't know
what you people are doing down there,
Copy !req
1826. but we got a hole to dig up here.
Copy !req
1827. Go, go, go, go!
Come on. We got work to do.
Copy !req
1828. Okay, guys. All go, no quit.
How you doing down there? Good?
Copy !req
1829. Okay, got the tranny.
We're back in business.
Copy !req
1830. Hey, you guys should take a break
and come up and see this.
Copy !req
1831. Wow. Got a great view
of the Earth from here.
Copy !req
1832. Too bad we'll never set foot
on her again.
Copy !req
1833. - Lev, do you see anything?
- No.
Copy !req
1834. Well, keep going. I'm not giving up.
Copy !req
1835. Hold up here, Bear.
Copy !req
1836. - Oh, boy.
- This is great.
Copy !req
1837. We just happen to run
into the Grand Canyon on the asteroid?
Copy !req
1838. I told you,
you took a wrong way, a wrong road.
Copy !req
1839. What... What road?
Do you see any roads around here?
Copy !req
1840. You know what? I do not have
much pleasure being near God's ear.
Copy !req
1841. But you think this is looking good,
or what?
Copy !req
1842. Lev, why don't you just do humanity
a favor and just shut the hell up?
Copy !req
1843. Have you ever heard of Evel Knievel?
Copy !req
1844. No, I never saw Star Wars.
Copy !req
1845. All right. Doing a good job.
Copy !req
1846. - Give me a depth reading, Max.
- We're 150 feet, Harry.
Copy !req
1847. Ride them, cowboy!
Copy !req
1848. Get off the nuclear warhead.
Copy !req
1849. I was doing that guy
from that movie, you know,
Copy !req
1850. Slim Pickens, where he rides it
all the way in the nuclear warhead.
Copy !req
1851. - Now.
- You didn't see that one, huh?
Copy !req
1852. We got 700 feet of hole
to dig, Rockhound.
Copy !req
1853. All right. Just... Just wanted to feel
the power between my legs, brother.
Copy !req
1854. Hey, Sharp.
Copy !req
1855. No nukes! No nukes! No nukes!
Copy !req
1856. You got any more bullets
in that gun, Sharp?
Copy !req
1857. What did Watts tell you, Bear?
Copy !req
1858. If she kicked you in the balls,
you'd keep floating.
Copy !req
1859. Yeah.
Copy !req
1860. We turn the thrusters off,
Copy !req
1861. we jump this thing,
we float right over it.
Copy !req
1862. Go over it again, Lev.
Copy !req
1863. Throw the jet thrusters off
exactly when we jump.
Copy !req
1864. - And then we're gonna put them on...
- Okay.
Copy !req
1865. and we gonna go down nice and slow.
Copy !req
1866. - That's it. That's it, baby. That's it.
- Is this gonna work?
Copy !req
1867. - I don't know.
- Lev, you know what, just lie to me.
Copy !req
1868. Let's say 50... No.
More like, like 70-30 or 80-20.
Copy !req
1869. But you know what? If it works,
the two of you gonna be heroes,
Copy !req
1870. just like me.
Copy !req
1871. Screw it.
We're jumping over this canyon.
Copy !req
1872. Just for the record,
this is a very bad idea!
Copy !req
1873. Wait for the edge now.
Wait till we get there. Wait...
Copy !req
1874. - Here we come. Now, not till we do it.
- Three, two, one!
Copy !req
1875. Off!
Copy !req
1876. - Yes!
- It's working!
Copy !req
1877. It's working!
Copy !req
1878. - Oh, my God!
- Yeah!
Copy !req
1879. - I'm a genius! Wait a minute.
- Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Copy !req
1880. - We got some rocks!
- Go left! Go left!
Copy !req
1881. Lev! Lev, I can't do anything!
Copy !req
1882. Turn!
Copy !req
1883. Okay, okay,
we're floating into outer space.
Copy !req
1884. - Check main switch.
- This could be a little bit of a problem.
Copy !req
1885. - Thrusters on. Now!
- All right, turn them on.
Copy !req
1886. - What's wrong?
- I... I don't know.
Copy !req
1887. The... The thrusters not working.
I hate this machine!
Copy !req
1888. I thought you had this planned!
Copy !req
1889. - Be quiet! I must think!
- What're we supposed to do?
Copy !req
1890. - I'm stepping outside.
- You're... You're going outside?
Copy !req
1891. I am the only certified astronaut,
and I'm saving your American ass!
Copy !req
1892. Yes. You'll listen to him. Right.
Copy !req
1893. Hurry up, Lev, because we're
about a mile off the asteroid!
Copy !req
1894. Just a second. The fuel line is iced up.
Copy !req
1895. - I think maybe working now.
- No, Lev, it's not working!
Copy !req
1896. I'm sorry, A.J., I was way off the odds.
Copy !req
1897. We're getting higher, man.
Copy !req
1898. Look out! The rocks! Rocks are coming!
Copy !req
1899. Hold on!
Copy !req
1900. - Pull the thrusters!
- Lev, look out!
Copy !req
1901. - We lost Lev.
- A.J.!
Copy !req
1902. A.J., the thrusters!
Copy !req
1903. Let's get Lev back!
Copy !req
1904. Lev, hold on! We're coming in!
Copy !req
1905. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Lord.
Copy !req
1906. Thank you. Thank you, thank you,
thank you, thank you.
Copy !req
1907. - Lev!
- Now I'm really a Russian hero!
Copy !req
1908. - I told you!
- I know!
Copy !req
1909. - I knew this would work!
- Good odds, you know?
Copy !req
1910. Come on, Lev.
Get in here. We gotta go.
Copy !req
1911. Rockhound, keep an eye
on that transmission.
Copy !req
1912. - Tranny looks good, Harry.
- All right. Take it out of there.
Copy !req
1913. Lock it down, Chick.
Copy !req
1914. Nice.
Copy !req
1915. How come we didn't get any training
on this thing?
Copy !req
1916. Whoa. Very cool. I could take out
this asteroid single-handedly.
Copy !req
1917. Okay, boys, give it a rest.
I'll take it from here.
Copy !req
1918. Whoa!
Copy !req
1919. - What the hell is that?
- It's Rockhound.
Copy !req
1920. Whoa. This is so much fun, it's freaky.
Copy !req
1921. Rockhound!
Copy !req
1922. Whoa, watch your heads.
Sorry, Harry.
Copy !req
1923. - Out of my way, boys!
- Rockhound!
Copy !req
1924. Meet your maker, asteroid!
Copy !req
1925. What the hell's the matter
with you, Rockhound?
Copy !req
1926. - This is insane.
- Goddamn!
Copy !req
1927. - Have you lost your mind?
- He's got space dementia.
Copy !req
1928. Harry, you ought to watch your man.
Copy !req
1929. Max, downshift slowly
and put it in reverse.
Copy !req
1930. We gotta get that pipe out of there.
Copy !req
1931. What's happening?
Copy !req
1932. - The ground's cracking!
- Earthquake!
Copy !req
1933. Quick, shut it off!
Copy !req
1934. - Shut it off! Shut it off now!
- We're gonna have a blowout!
Copy !req
1935. - We hit a gas pocket!
- We got pressure up the ass!
Copy !req
1936. Max, get your helmet on!
Max, it's gonna blow!
Copy !req
1937. - Jesus, I'm cooking!
- Max, get out of there!
Copy !req
1938. This is it!
Copy !req
1939. Harry!
Copy !req
1940. I'm bailing!
Copy !req
1941. Max!
Copy !req
1942. - Good-bye, Max.
- Max!
Copy !req
1943. Take care, buddy.
Copy !req
1944. - Armadillo's off the scope.
- I think we've had a blowout.
Copy !req
1945. - No sign of the Armadillo.
- Somebody punch up the Armadillo.
Copy !req
1946. Get ahold of Truman.
Copy !req
1947. Prepare the world for bad news.
Copy !req
1948. We're getting sketchy information
Copy !req
1949. that the mission
has suffered massive failure.
Copy !req
1950. And what we're trying to do right now
is to confirm that
Copy !req
1951. and find out exactly what that means.
Copy !req
1952. Repeat, we're getting leaks
from several NASA officials,
Copy !req
1953. some rushing home to be
with their families,
Copy !req
1954. that the drilling was unsuccessful.
Copy !req
1955. This could very well be our final hour.
Copy !req
1956. We're gonna go off the air now.
Good luck and God bless.
Copy !req
1957. - We've got incoming.
- I got tracks.
Copy !req
1958. NORAD's tracking four small incoming
over Europe.
Copy !req
1959. I think one's about to hit near Paris.
Copy !req
1960. Reports are coming in...
Copy !req
1961. Martial law has been implemented
in 42 countries.
Copy !req
1962. Once the asteroid hits zero barrier,
Copy !req
1963. it will take about three hours
and 57 minutes to impact Earth.
Copy !req
1964. Well, I guess we do it
the President's way. I'll order an evac.
Copy !req
1965. You can remote detonate.
Copy !req
1966. You still don't think this'll work,
do you?
Copy !req
1967. Well, what I think is irrelevant.
Copy !req
1968. - We need to do it now.
- Fine.
Copy !req
1969. - Can they still take off?
- We hope so.
Copy !req
1970. You are the one
that pulled them into this!
Copy !req
1971. That is my family up there,
so I don't wanna hear, "We hope so!"
Copy !req
1972. Guess what, guys?
It's time to embrace the horror.
Copy !req
1973. Look. We got front-row tickets
to the end of the Earth.
Copy !req
1974. - Yeah! Way to go, baby!
- Harry!
Copy !req
1975. - Yeah!
- Yo, Harry! What's up, baby?
Copy !req
1976. Hey, get that bomb out of there!
We got a hole to make!
Copy !req
1977. Houston, you're not gonna believe this,
but the other Armadillo has arrived.
Copy !req
1978. All right, people, listen up.
Settle down and focus.
Copy !req
1979. - Mechanical, get online.
- P.P.O., give me a setup.
Copy !req
1980. Your boyfriend's back.
Copy !req
1981. - Yo, Harry!
- You're awesome, baby!
Copy !req
1982. Hey, Harry. You miss me?
Copy !req
1983. A.J., I got just five words for you.
Copy !req
1984. - Damn glad to see you, boy!
- That's six words.
Copy !req
1985. - Chick, walk them down.
- So where's this hole you need dug?
Copy !req
1986. Houston, drilling has recommenced.
Copy !req
1987. Do you think they can drill 250 feet
in an hour?
Copy !req
1988. They better.
Copy !req
1989. Bring that piece on in, Bear.
Copy !req
1990. Tractor pull.
Copy !req
1991. - I'm coming down!
- We got 250 feet to go.
Copy !req
1992. It's our last transmission,
last drill head.
Copy !req
1993. Punch it through.
First gear. We got contact.
Copy !req
1994. Drive it on down, A.J.
Copy !req
1995. - I got this, man. Let's go!
- Lev, the right engine hub.
Copy !req
1996. Houston, I'm getting no response
from the preflight sequence.
Copy !req
1997. Come on now. This is not...
Hey! Hey, come here.
Copy !req
1998. Can you get me out of here,
please, Lev? Thank you.
Copy !req
1999. - Jesus! Hey!
- Wait...
Copy !req
2000. - Lev, the right engine...
- Okay.
Copy !req
2001. Let me out of here, will you?
Copy !req
2002. Just trying to have some fun
before I die!
Copy !req
2003. - How deep are we?
- 770.
Copy !req
2004. - Whoa, they got problems.
- The gauges are spiking.
Copy !req
2005. Methane! Shut it down! Back it down!
Copy !req
2006. I can't pull back now.
The bit will get lodged.
Copy !req
2007. We don't have enough time!
Copy !req
2008. - Whoa, whoa, whoa! It's gonna blow!
- It's how we lost Max!
Copy !req
2009. I know what I'm talking about.
We can punch through this.
Copy !req
2010. We can knock this out of the park.
Copy !req
2011. - This is our last transmission, A.J.
- Goddamn it!
Copy !req
2012. If you're ever gonna trust me, ever,
once in your life, trust me now!
Copy !req
2013. Harry, it's gonna blow!
Copy !req
2014. Harry, I know what I'm doing.
You just gotta trust me.
Copy !req
2015. Make the call.
Copy !req
2016. All right. Hold on.
I'm pushing through her.
Copy !req
2017. I'm pushing through her!
Copy !req
2018. - What's your depth?
- 775. 780.
Copy !req
2019. Dig it up, baby! Ram it home!
Copy !req
2020. Drive on down, A.J.!
Copy !req
2021. Seven-eighty-five. Come on. Come on.
Copy !req
2022. - Come on, A.J.!

Copy !req
2028. - Yeah!

Copy !req
2029. Harry, we did it!
Copy !req
2030. - Yes!
- We did it!
Copy !req
2031. - Yeah! Kid, way to go!
- I knew it, baby!
Copy !req
2032. It's not over
till we get the bomb down that hole.
Copy !req
2033. Watts, they've got 38 minutes.
Copy !req
2034. Harry, you've gotta give me that hole.
Copy !req
2035. I'm gonna need two more minutes.
I got a bent pipe jammed in the hole.
Copy !req
2036. We gotta cut it out before we can send
that bomb down. A.J.!
Copy !req
2037. - She good to go?
- Yeah, I'm all set.
Copy !req
2038. All right.
Copy !req
2039. - All right.
- A.J., come on! Make it fast!
Copy !req
2040. I'm going as fast as I can!
There's a lot of gas pressure!
Copy !req
2041. - You feel that?
- Harry, you gotta give me that hole.
Copy !req
2042. The bomb is almost ready.
Copy !req
2043. - Pull that pipe out!
- Harry, I'm almost through!
Copy !req
2044. Give me 15 more seconds!
Copy !req
2045. Well, this is something new.
Copy !req
2046. I don't think this thing likes us.
Copy !req
2047. That's 'cause it knows we're here
to kill it.
Copy !req
2048. Hey, what's going on up there?
Copy !req
2049. - A.J.!
- What the hell was that?
Copy !req
2050. - A.J.!
- Goddamn it, I'm finished!
Copy !req
2051. - A.J., you all right?
- Lot of gas pressure in here, man!
Copy !req
2052. - Get me out!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hydrogen pocket!
Copy !req
2053. Harry! Pull me in!
Copy !req
2054. A.J., hang on!
Copy !req
2055. Secure the bomb!
Copy !req
2056. Sharp, heads up!
Copy !req
2057. Gruber! Get out of there now!
Copy !req
2058. Oh, no.
Copy !req
2059. God, no!
Copy !req
2060. Look out!
Copy !req
2061. Help! Oh, no!
Copy !req
2062. Do you believe that just happened?
Copy !req
2063. - Sharp, you all right?
- I'm okay.
Copy !req
2064. - Bear?
- Yeah. I'm here, Harry.
Copy !req
2065. - A.J.?
- Yeah, I'm okay.
Copy !req
2066. We lost Gruber.
Copy !req
2067. Gruber's dead.
Copy !req
2068. Let's get that bomb ready
and go home.
Copy !req
2069. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
2070. Is there a problem, Colonel?
Copy !req
2071. The timer, the remote,
the whole thing's dead.
Copy !req
2072. What, the bomb is dead?
Copy !req
2073. No, the trigger's dead.
Copy !req
2074. It must've gotten damaged
during the rock storm.
Copy !req
2075. So how do we detonate it?
Copy !req
2076. We have 18 minutes to zero barrier.
We got some bad news.
Copy !req
2077. The remote detonator on the bomb
has been damaged.
Copy !req
2078. That means that somebody's
gonna have to stay behind.
Copy !req
2079. It takes two people to fly this thing.
Copy !req
2080. Either we all stay and die,
or you guys draw straws.
Copy !req
2081. I say we all stay and die.
But that's me.
Copy !req
2082. I'll draw. Let's draw.
Copy !req
2083. Nobody's gonna draw straws.
Copy !req
2084. - I'll stay and take care of it.
- Well, I can't live with that sort of thing.
Copy !req
2085. Nobody asked you
if you could live with it, all right?
Copy !req
2086. No way I will let you volunteer for this
so I can go back to my home country
Copy !req
2087. like the man who didn't volunteer.
Copy !req
2088. No way!
Copy !req
2089. Hey, man, let's draw,
Copy !req
2090. and let's see who's gonna stay up here
and dance.
Copy !req
2091. Guys, I know you guys think
I'm crazy right now,
Copy !req
2092. but I would really like
this responsibility.
Copy !req
2093. All right. All right.
Copy !req
2094. - I can do it.
- Let's just draw straws
Copy !req
2095. - and get it over with. Come on.
- I ain't drawing against you, Harry.
Copy !req
2096. Well, I'm gonna draw
against you, Chick,
Copy !req
2097. so you betterjust go ahead and do it.
Copy !req
2098. Just give me this thing.
Copy !req
2099. Is this good or bad?
Copy !req
2100. Oh, man.
Copy !req
2101. Well, we all gotta die, right?
Copy !req
2102. I'm the guy who gets to do it
saving the world.
Copy !req
2103. So, let's go. We...
We got about 10 minutes, right?
Copy !req
2104. You plug this into the port.
Copy !req
2105. Lift, press, hold. That's it.
Copy !req
2106. Lift, press, hold.
Shouldn't be too tough.
Copy !req
2107. Even I can't screw this up.
Copy !req
2108. I'll take him down.
Copy !req
2109. Do me a favor, will you?
Just tell Grace that...
Copy !req
2110. That I'll always be with her, okay?
Copy !req
2111. Can you do that?
Copy !req
2112. Yeah. Okay, kid.
Copy !req
2113. Give this to Truman.
Copy !req
2114. Make sure Truman gets that.
Get in there.
Copy !req
2115. It's my turn now.
Copy !req
2116. Harry! Harry!
Copy !req
2117. You can't do this to me!
Copy !req
2118. It's my job!
Copy !req
2119. You go take care of my little girl now.
That's your job.
Copy !req
2120. Always thought of you
as a son. Always.
Copy !req
2121. But I'd be damn proud
to have you marry Grace.
Copy !req
2122. - Harry.
- You take care of yourself.
Copy !req
2123. - Harry, no!
- I love you, pal.
Copy !req
2124. Harry, I love you!
Don't, Harry! Wait a minute!
Copy !req
2125. - My son.
- No, don't do this, Harry!
Copy !req
2126. You don't do this! Harry!
Copy !req
2127. What happened?
Copy !req
2128. That crazy, stubborn son of a...
Copy !req
2129. Well, this was a real good idea.
Copy !req
2130. All right, let's go, Sharp.
Let's get our team out of here.
Copy !req
2131. Come on!
Let's get ready to initiate thrusters!
Copy !req
2132. Strap it in, guys! Let's go!
Strap it in, guys!
Copy !req
2133. Get the O2 masks.
Copy !req
2134. - Are they free? Are they free?
- B.P.U., set.
Copy !req
2135. I cannot believe
this is going down like this.
Copy !req
2136. You all right?
Copy !req
2137. - O2 vents locked, pressure loaded.
- Engine board is green.
Copy !req
2138. T minus three minutes and counting.
Copy !req
2139. Houston, do you copy?
This is Harry Stamper.
Copy !req
2140. It's down there.
Copy !req
2141. - Electrical systems primed.
- B.P.U. is set. Oxidizers are loading.
Copy !req
2142. Houston, we're out of here
in T minus three minutes.
Copy !req
2143. Daddy?
Copy !req
2144. Hi, Gracie. Hi, honey.
Copy !req
2145. Grace, I know I promised you
I was coming home.
Copy !req
2146. I don't understand.
Copy !req
2147. Looks like I'm gonna have
to break that promise.
Copy !req
2148. I... I lied to you, too,
Copy !req
2149. when I told you
that I didn't want to be like you.
Copy !req
2150. Because I am like you.
Copy !req
2151. And everything good that I have
inside of me, I have from you.
Copy !req
2152. I love you so much, Daddy.
Copy !req
2153. I'm so proud of you.
Copy !req
2154. I'm so scared.
Copy !req
2155. I know it, baby,
Copy !req
2156. but there won't be anything
to be scared of soon.
Copy !req
2157. Gracie, I want you to know
that A.J. saved us. He did.
Copy !req
2158. I want you to tell Chick
Copy !req
2159. that I couldn't have done it without him,
none of it.
Copy !req
2160. I want you to take care of A.J.
Copy !req
2161. I wish I could be there
to walk you down the aisle.
Copy !req
2162. But I'll...
Copy !req
2163. I'll look in on you from time to time,
okay, honey?
Copy !req
2164. I love you, Grace.
Copy !req
2165. I love you, too.
Copy !req
2166. - I gotta go now, honey.
- Daddy, no.
Copy !req
2167. No, no, Dad, no!
Copy !req
2168. O.M.S. pod pre-start.
O2 vents locked, pressure loaded.
Copy !req
2169. What the hell's going on up there?
Why haven't you guys left yet?
Copy !req
2170. We're going, Harry. Houston.
Copy !req
2171. - We got O.M.S. pod pre-start.
- Pod pre-start confirmed.
Copy !req
2172. - What's the problem?
- I don't know.
Copy !req
2173. - What's wrong?
- Fix it now!
Copy !req
2174. We got no time, no time!
Copy !req
2175. - What?
- What's that?
Copy !req
2176. - Where you going?
- Come on.
Copy !req
2177. We're staying, we're going.
We're staying, we're going.
Copy !req
2178. Make up your minds.
Copy !req
2179. Damn it, Sharp! Get out of here now.
You got less than three minutes.
Copy !req
2180. - Come on, Watts. Come on, come on.
- Blow the bomb, Harry. We're with you.
Copy !req
2181. - It's stuck. Yes?
- Come on!
Copy !req
2182. Back off!
You don't know the components!
Copy !req
2183. Components, American components,
Russian components.
Copy !req
2184. All made in Taiwan!
Copy !req
2185. We're getting tight
for ignition, Freedom.
Copy !req
2186. - Houston, we've got no fire.
- What does that mean?
Copy !req
2187. It means we got a busted ship.
Copy !req
2188. A busted ship?
And I'm strapped in here?
Copy !req
2189. I had a great spot picked out there.
Copy !req
2190. Freedom, you fire that engine.
Copy !req
2191. If there's not a way, you find a way.
The clock's ticking.
Copy !req
2192. Let's go!
Let's fire that engine, Freedom!
Copy !req
2193. You got less than a minute.
Don't think I won't blow this thing.
Copy !req
2194. Sharp, get out of here.
It's getting bad down here.
Copy !req
2195. I know how to fix it. Please, move.
Copy !req
2196. I... I have to take you away
if you don't move.
Copy !req
2197. Watts, you gotta get
that shuttle started.
Copy !req
2198. You gotta fire it up now!
Copy !req
2199. Damn it, Sharp. Get off this rock!
Copy !req
2200. I'm telling you, please, move!
Copy !req
2201. This is how we fix problem
in Russian space station.
Copy !req
2202. Because I don't want
to stay here anymore.
Copy !req
2203. Yeah! Finally! We can go home!
Copy !req
2204. She's coming back.
She's coming back.
Copy !req
2205. We're hot!
Copy !req
2206. Watts, let's go, let's go!
Copy !req
2207. Rain all you want, you son of a bitch.
Copy !req
2208. Let's go! We don't have time!
Hurry, hurry. We got no time!
Copy !req
2209. Initiate thrusters on my mark!
Two, one, mark!
Copy !req
2210. Come on. Get some altitude.
Let's go, let's go.
Copy !req
2211. Yes! Come on!
Copy !req
2212. Freedom has max thrust!
Copy !req
2213. Thank you, Harry.
Copy !req
2214. Shuttle's out of range.
Still no detonation.
Copy !req
2215. Something's not right.
Too much time has gone by.
Copy !req
2216. Zero barrier's about to be breached.
One minute.
Copy !req
2217. Harry, come on. Press that button.
Copy !req
2218. - We're going back and do it ourselves.
- Just don't. Wait one minute.
Copy !req
2219. Dan, we're about to cross the threshold.
Copy !req
2220. Come on, Harry. Press the button.
Copy !req
2221. Colonel, I'm asking you.
Just one more minute!
Copy !req
2222. Press the button, Stamper.
Copy !req
2223. Come on.
Copy !req
2224. Harry will do it. I know it.
Copy !req
2225. He doesn't know how to fail.
Copy !req
2226. We win, Gracie!
Copy !req
2227. Press it!
Copy !req
2228. We have detonation.
Confirming detonation.
Copy !req
2229. The two halves are gonna miss us
by 400 miles
Copy !req
2230. and most of the small particles
have been vaporized.
Copy !req
2231. - Houston, we're coming home.
- We copy that, Freedom.
Copy !req
2232. Yo, Harry. You the man.
Copy !req
2233. Kennedy, we see you.
And you never looked so good.
Copy !req
2234. I never told anybody this before,
but I hate flying,
Copy !req
2235. so it'd be an awful shame to die now.
Copy !req
2236. That's easy for you to say.
Copy !req
2237. I owe 100 grand
to a bad-ass loan shark
Copy !req
2238. which I spent on a stripper
named Molly Mounds.
Copy !req
2239. - Boy, that's bad.
- Kennedy, we are 100%.
Copy !req
2240. Flap suspension control on full.
Copy !req
2241. Welcome home, astronauts.
Copy !req
2242. Hey, guys, remember.
We're... We're heroes now.
Copy !req
2243. So that incident with me
and the gun on the asteroid,
Copy !req
2244. let's keep that under wraps, all right?
Copy !req
2245. Miss Stamper?
Copy !req
2246. Colonel Willie Sharp,
United States Air Force, ma'am.
Copy !req
2247. Requesting permission
to shake the hand of the daughter
Copy !req
2248. of the bravest man I've ever met.
Copy !req
2249. Hello, mi astronauta.
Copy !req
2250. - Oh, my God!

Copy !req
2251. Baby,
I wanna have babies with you.
Copy !req
2252. Welcome back, cowboy.
Copy !req
2253. Harry wanted you to have this.
Copy !req
2254. He did, huh?
Copy !req
2255. I could stay awake
Copy !req
2256. Just to hear you breathing

It's early morn

Copy !req
2297. So kiss me and smile for me
Copy !req
2298. Tell me that you'll wait for me
Copy !req
2299. Hold me like you'll never let me go

Copy !req
2301. I don't know when I'll be back again
