December, 1983.

The Nereid, a British atomic submarine

Tokyo Bay, Japan.

- Last fix puts us three miles offshore now, sir.
- Very good.

- Stop together.
- Stop together.

- Keep 56 feet.
- Keep 56 feet. Keep 56 feet.

Stand by to take on air sample.

Launch surveillance drone.
Launch surveillance drone.

Receiving video transmission now, sir.

Where is Yoshizumi?

I think he's asleep, sir. He was up half
the night working on that theory of his.

That earthquake predictional?
Yes, sir, I believe so.

What a crock! Worried about
a massive disaster, is he?

Well you'd better give him a call. I don't
suppose he'll be seeing this sight again.

Yoshizumi to control room.
Yoshizumi to control room.

Yoshizumi to control room.
Yoshizumi to control room.

Yoshizumi reporting
Captain McCloud.

I'm pregnant.

I'm pregnant.

But it's of no matter to you.

Farewell.

On a more positive note gang,

let's not get too damn
heavy about this.

The Japanese seem to have licked
their smog problem at last, don't they?

That will be quite enough,
Major Carter.

I am sorry.

Look here, Major.
What are you riding him for?

We've no room for that sort
of thing down here, you know?

Jones, you haven't got room for a whole
hell of a lot of nothing down here!

Pardon! Pardon! Captain!

- Well?
- Captain, the analysis of the air sample

from the outside environment
is complete.

- Result?
- Positive. The virus
is still quite active.

- Retrieve the drone. Eject the air sample.
- Captain!

- I ask of you, do not eject the sample!
- That's impossible, Doctor Latour.

You want us to keep that... that thing
with us? Take it back?

It's quite out of the question.
I beg of you! Reconsider, captain!

You're thinking only of
the short-term risk!

I'd like to think of no risk at all.

With a little time I can
study its characteristics.

There is no danger as
long as we keep it isolated.

How the hell d'you isolate a virus
aboard a submarine, Doctor?

Captain, this submarine... it is
powered by a nuclear reactor.

Is there no danger to us from
the radioactivity of the core?

Of course not. We are completely
shielded from it...

I accept your expertise on this matter.
Will you not accept mine?

Captain, what choice do we have
but at least to try?

Retrieve the drone. Secure
air sample in isolation.

Retrieve drone. Secure
air sample in isolation.

Retrieve drone.
Secure air sample in isolation.

Let's head for home.

Head for home.

It'd be different if we had a home
to return to now, wouldn't it?

Head for Antarctica it should be.

9000 miles as the crow flies.

Except there are no crows. It'll
be Christmas by the time we get back.

Christmas.

In the fall of 1982,
mankind died out,

leaving only 863 people
alive on Antarctica.

How could this have happened?

Virus - Resurrection Day

In 1981,

all genetic engineering
experiments.

to create new viruses

were banned internationally.

However, one year later...

February, 1982

Leipzig - East Germany

Military Biological
Research Centre

Herr professor!

Close that or the coffee gets cold.
I've got to drive 60 kilometres today.

I'm sorry, professor.
It's pretty bad weather.

I have no choice.
My sister is sick.

I am sorry. Please drive carefully.
Thank you.

Professor! How nice to see you!
Dreadfully cold, no?

Here. Warm yourself.

I trust everything is in order.

It is agreed then? The contents are to be
delivered directly to Doctor Leisenhau

of the Viral Research
Institute at Zurich.

Transport it exactly as it is.

Under no circumstances take it
out the dry ice packing.

Under no circumstances allow
the dry ice to run out.

Is that perfectly, absolutely clear?

I understand, professor.

You seem relieved.
Is that the right word?

Doctor Leisenhau is in my opinion the
leading authority in the world today

on the subject of viral infections.

And the test data?
The documentation?

I had enough trouble getting
the specimen out of the lab.

You expect me to take this to
Doctor Leisenhau with no proof,

no idea of its characteristics,
its properties?

"Here, Doctor Leisenhau,
here is a germ, fix it, please"?

It is more than a germ. It is
a weapon! MM-88 is an accident.

It is a Frankenstein monster,
masquerading as a virus!

- MM-88?
- Soon after it was found
we could take DNA apart

and reassemble it in different ways,

an American geneticist
developed this MM-88

and when we heard of its characteristics,
we decided to borrow some of it.

- What characteristics?
- Essentially, it is a mimic. - A what?

A mimic attaches itself
to existing viruses,

such as polio, influenza, et cetera,

increasing both the toxicity level and the
reproductive level of the host disease.

In other words, it hits so hard
and multiplies so fast,

it simply overwhelms
any vaccine known.

Excuse me.

You have a cold?
Oh, it's nothing.

If I were to open
this ampule to the air,

you would be dead
within three days.

It is no laughing matter!

Men, women, children,
livestock as well.

Birds, dogs and cats even.

All vertebrate life on earth, with
no exception, is susceptible.

Unless a way is found to
neutralise this monster,

we are left with
a doomsday weapon.

- Which means the weapon that will never be used.
- By a rational man.

Any student of history can tell you
that the rational mind

is not always a prerequisite
for a position of power.

Very good, professor.
You've done well.

In five days a bank account will
be opened in your name in Brazil.

Fifty thousand pounds will
be deposited to that account.

Do you think I did this for money?

I want you to get this virus to
Doctor Leisenhau, nothing more!

- You are certain professor Krauss was hit?
- Yes.

Just as well I suppose. He wouldn't have
been very happy if he'd found out,

we were not representing
the good Doctor Leisenhau after all.

We've gotta go higher! There's
too much turbulence!

No! We'd be picked up by radar!

- Keep hugging the cliffs!
- It's not safe! We're too heavy!

- Don't worry. We have plenty of ballast to get rid of if we have to.
- Noooooo!

March, 1982

University of Maryland,
United States

Biological Research Centre

Come in!

Director Roger.
Doctor Meyer. You have a visitor.

How are you, Ed?

You're busy? - No, no, I just...
I wasn't expecting you until tomorrow.

I came by to check on your progress.
I have a few things to do, gentlemen,

so if you'll excuse me.

- Did you get it back?
- No.

A scientist named Krauss was making
a discreet increase to the Swiss,

about something that
sounded like MM-88.

I sent him some of my people
posing as Swiss,

they never came out. - Well, send
then some more, damn it!

It's vitally important to find out
who stole that virus!

My only link was Krauss. East Germans
are saying that he committed suicide.

So, MM-88 is still out there.

And we don't know where.

That's why it is imperative for you to
develop a vaccine against it immediately.

There is not a vaccine in the world
that can stop it.

Not likely to be one, either.

At extremely low temperatures
the virus is completely dormant.

But at minus 10 degrees centigrade,
it begins to reproduce itself.

By minus 3 degrees centigrade,

its reproductive rate is
increased by a factor of 100.

Above zero it starts growing
at a horrendous rate,

reaching its peak infectivity.

At above 5 degrees centigrade,

at which time its reproductive rate,
the speed with which it multiplies,

reaches massive proportions.

Its reproductive rate is now something
on the order of 2 billion times greater

than what it was at minus 10.

Look at this!

And look at this!

And look at this.

I'm scared to death
of this thing.

It's not just a vaccine you want to
develop from this little monster virus is it?

- I don't know what you're talking about.
- I know how the system works, colonel!

You develop a part of the weapon
here, another part over there,

the trigger some place else again,

and nobody involved knows what
the hell they're working on

until it's all put together!

Go on. - Militarily, a vaccine would be
a very useful defensive element.

And that's all you're being asked to develop.
- Come off it, colonel!

Why is Columbia being asked to study
MM-88's resistance to extreme heat?

You are developing a weapons system
based on MM-88, aren't you?

- You are a fool.
- For god's sake, why?

Ed... at this moment,

we do not have a creditable
deterrent in the United States arsenal.

At this moment we are capable not only
of reducing each other to rubble,

but of reducing the rubble to rubble!

We were. Before we installed the
automatic reactions system, the ARS.

So how does that leave us defenseless?

The Soviets installed the same system!

Now neither side can employ
their missiles even if they want to!

So this,. this so-called disarmament
treaty of President Richardson's

is more of his political showboating!

We are back to square one, unless we
can develop a new weapons system fast!

Oh!

Christ, not again!

Why can't you people
ever leave it be?

Are the Russians gonna leave it be?

What's with him?

We've got trouble.

He's figured it out.
Take a look.

My god!

He's gonna blow the whistle to senator
Barkley's defense oversight committee.

What do you propose to do?

I think...

you should send him over
to Letterman this afternoon.

For a... routine physical.

No, no, no!
I'm not crazy! No, no!

I'm not crazy!

April, 1982

Soviet Union -
Republic of Kazakhstan

Italy - Milan

Italian flu rages
through the country

government authorities
are concerned

Italian flu - is it a new virus?

May, 1982

South Pole - Showa Station

Leader, it's a message
from the capital.

"We hope to have the Italian flu
under control soon.

Please stay calm
and continue your observations."

A superficial response,
as usual.

Doesn't reassure me.

Let's pin it up
in the cafeteria.

It should make
people feel better.

Yes, sir.

Hello? This is AJ-1RL.
I copy you.

What is your call sign? Over.

This is BK-0-CC. Ahab from
Mawson station. Over.

It's that Australian group
from nearby.

Hello neighbour?

What have you heard from outside?
Over.

Just for a couple of minutes to
some doctor in Uganda.

He said, whatever it was, that central
Africa was hit bad.

Not just the people. Most of the
wildlife as well. Even the elephants. Over.

- Wildlife too?
- Yeah.

Imagine an elephant with the flu. One
sneeze'd break its bloody neck, I reckon.

Let me speak.

Hello? This is Doctor
Yamochi speaking.

Could you please explain,
as much as possible,

the characteristics the Ugandan
doctor described? Over.

All he said was it started out like
a simple cold, or flu mostly,

and then quickly turned to pneumonia.

And there were symptoms of
other diseases as well,

but he didn't think it was
any of those things.

He thought it was something else.

Something else?

Can an unknown disease
like that

really exist?

How should I know?

All I know is that
the whole world's in a panic.

Matsuo! Connect the electricity!

Roger!

You amaze me.

Doesn't it bother you at all?

Hey.

He's got a girlfriend.

She's my wife's friend.
She's really beautiful.

What do you think?

Huh?

I won't say anything bad.

Why don't you ask about her
by telegraph sometime?

We broke up.

Broke up?

She probably couldn't
put up with me.

- But you...
- Matsuo!

- Let's do this.
- Hey!

I'm pregnant.

The child will be born
while you're at the South Pole.

I'm lying.

But even if it were true,

it's of no importance to you.

No matter what happened to me,

you'd still go, right?

That's right.

Earthquakes
and the south pole

are all you care about, right?

Let's break up

after all.

You and I.

Banzai!

I didn't think you'd come.

As far as the child goes,

I told you it was a lie.

Either way,

it doesn't matter to you.

I'm sorry.

I hadn't planned
to say something like this.

In truth,

I wanted to see you off
with a smile.

Go in good health.

Farewell.

June, 1982 - Tokyo

- Move aside!
- It's an emergency!

- Out of our way!
- Let us through!

- It's an emergency!
- Let us through!

Excuse me!

Miss Noriko?

Miss Yoshiko.

What's wrong?

You're so pale!

Nothing's wrong.

I'm just a little tired.

Akira, what's wrong?

Do you have a cold?

Vaccinations.

It was hard,

so early in the morning.

Miss Noriko!

Miss Noriko!

Miss Noriko!

You're awake.

You stayed with me?

I'm so sorry.

What are you saying?

More importantly, are you okay?

Yes.

They couldn't save it?

The baby.

Recently, I've been so busy,

I overexerted myself.

Did Mr Yoshizumi

know about it?

I did something cruel.

I thought I could
raise her myself.

The raging epidemic of the Italian flu

is sowing seeds of fear and panic
throughout the world.

A severe shortage of
vaccine of every kind,

is reported in almost all countries.

Everywhere there are ugly
confrontations.

White House - the Oval Office

Martial law is the order of the day.
But civil disorder has escalated,

with widespread damage to
private and public property,

and rising death tolls
in a number of countries.

In the United Kingdom.

Spain.

France.

West Germany.

and Japan.

The United States is no exception.

For the past several days
on Capitol Hill in Washington DC

mass demonstrations of tens of
thousands of people are daily events.

This morning the National
Guard and the police

attempted to restore order,

only to inflame the angry mood
of the vast crowd

demanding effective vaccines.

Reports of bloody encounters
continue to stream in.

President Richardson's television
appeal to the nation,

asking for calm and restraint,
has had no appreciable effect.

No one dares to say
when order can be restored.

Even now, in Washington, authorities cannot maintain order... - That's enough!

And everywhere in the country there is confusion, chaos... - Turn it off.

What vaccine?

All right.

How long will it take to, ah,
manufacture this vaccine in quantity?

Mr President, we have not even
been able to isolate the cause.

The virus, if it is a virus,
is like the common cold,

it is everywhere, it is nowhere.

I'd like to say at this point,
Mr President, that HHS

might have been in a better position to
develop the crash program,

if its budget hadn't been slashed,
against the specific wishes of Congress.

Damn it, senator, I don't have to
hear that from you!

What do you mean?
There is no vaccine?

Then what is it that we're giving to the
police and fire department personnel,

the essential services, the military
alert crews, if not a vaccine?

It's just that we don't have enough for
the general populous, isn't that right?

We have a vaccine of sorts and
we put together a soup

of every flu-related vaccine we know.

Its effect leaves something
to be desired.

In fact, it's more of a placebo
than anything else.

You gave me a goddamn placebo?
We are doing our best!

Mr President, my apologies
for being late.

But, I have been gathering the latest
intelligence estimates of our situation.

And? - This shows where this
Italian flu first broke out.

And the routes by which it
has spread.

Here we have a breakdown of victims.

Alive - yellow, dead - black,
according to region.

As of this morning, Mr President,

I would like to point out the very
real possibility

that we might not have just
an epidemic on our hands,

we may have a case of germ warfare!

From where? What source?

Every country on this chart has massive
casualties. Can you explain that?

As far as we know. Some of our
information is quite sketchy.

Still, the most suspect country
should be obvious.

You have any hard evidence to support
this theory? - We are working on it.

In the meantime, Mr President, as
chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,

I must request that we go onto
a stage 1 alert,

including the activation
of the ARS network.

A nuclear strike, general? The stage 1
alert, if it makes you feel any better,

but the automatic reaction system
is aimed at the USSR and no one else.

It leaves us no flexibility at all.

How flexible are we going to be when
the Soviet missiles are incoming?

The only thing that is incoming
are the germs, general.

The Soviets must be
made aware of the fact

that they cannot take
advantage of this situation!

All right. That's the point
to consider.

Yes? One moment.
Mr President. The Kremlin.

This is President Richardson.

What?

Yes... um...
Yes, I... I understand.

Well, the... message was brief enough.

Their chief of state died this morning.
Of the Italian flu.

As far as we know.
Five star fool.

July, 1982

martial law is instituted
in all of Japan

When did this start?

He was coughing last night,

but he suddenly
went limp this morning.

You, take him to a room quickly!

We have to examine him now.

Take a lung biopsy.
His heart is weak, too.

Will he be okay?

We must take him now!

But Doctor, my husband
is in the hospital

and I have a 101 degree fever.

All the hospitals are full,
and I've been waiting!

Please calm down.

After the flu test,
he'll get better.

- Come on.
- This way.

Okay, next patient.

Doctor!

I'm fine.

I'm okay.

Please rest a bit.

I'll take over for you.

- Okay, please take over.
- Yes, sir.

Doctor.

Please hang in there!

Thank you.

Shall I get you some tea?

I'm fine.

You've got to have something!

We have milk, too.

- Get me some water.
- Yes, sir.

Did you hear today's news?

The death toll
has passed 30 million.

That many?

The mortality rate,

is 45%!

They say it may keep growing!

Doctor,

how long will this continue?

I don't know.

But we must do
everything we can.

Everything must end sometime.

The question is,
how will it end?

August, 1982

cq, cq! This is jgx!
Polar station Antarctica calling Japan!

Doesanyone, read my transmission!

What are conditions in Japan?

Answer me, someone! Please,
answer me! Over.

It's no use!

How many days
since we lost contact?

This is the eighth day.

It seems to be
a terrible situation.

I don't believe it!

How could Japan be ruined,

in just three months?

How could that be?

How could it be?

Tatsuno, that voice!

Are you calling us?

This is AJ-1RL! Hello?

Hello? Can anybody hear me?

My name is Toby Anderson.

This is AJ-1RL, polar station.
Toby, come in. Toby? Over.

Can anybody hear me?
My name is Toby.

Toby! I hear you! I hear you!

Can anybody hear me? I'm at the
Anderson, at... outside Santa Fe.

This is daddy's radio.

Can anybody hear me?

It's no use, he's pushing
down the mic button!

He doesn't know how to use it.

Daddy told me not to use
the radio until I turn 10.

I'm only five.
- Toby! Let go of the mic switch after you speak!

I asked daddy if I could use the radio
just this once, but daddy doesn't answer.

He's asleep on the floor
and he won't wake up!

Mommy is gone.
Is anybody out there?

Toby! The switch! The switch!
Let go of the switch!

I don't feel good.
I want my mommy.

I'm scared... - Toby, the switch!
- I'm not a baby, though...

Daddy's gun is right here. I know how
to use it too. I don't wanna be alone.

Toby! Toby!

You're not alone! Toby! Toby!

He must have...

Gone on to heaven.

You asshole!

Mr Tatsuno!

Asshole!

Here we sit, gentlemen.

Leaders of the most

powerful and advanced nation,

on the face of the earth.

Here we sit.

Damn it! There must be
something we can do about it!

Something!

Mr President, has the
plague been identified yet?

Senator, we don't know whether we're
dealing with one plague germ or six.

We don't even know where it came from
or how it is being transmitted.

Maybe we've been looking in
the wrong direction.

We have looked in
every direction, senator.

Tell us something about
Operation Phoenix, General Garland.

Phoenix?

What is Operation Phoenix?

Just a... just a paper study.
Oh?

One of several options being
studied in purely theoretical terms

Mr President, nothing more.

Maybe a little bit more,
general.

What are we talking about?

Operation Phoenix was a top secret
military study of a new weapon system.

There are many such studies. It goes
with the job. New weapons, new studies,

new alternatives.
A biological weapon system.

It was a paper study.

It was an active research project

involving a genetic manipulation
of existing pathogenic viruses!

It was theoretical!

New strains were not just study. They
were created in the laboratory.

Under completely controlled conditions!
I assure you, Mr President!

One strain, MM-88 was stolen
and never recovered,

and the President was
never told about it.

Now I'd like to know why!

Colonel Rankin, get in here
this minute!

Colonel Rankin, Operation Phoenix
was your baby.

MM-88. Was such a strain
developed?

Yes, sir.

Was any of it stolen?

No, sir. But it wouldn't have made
any difference anyway.

- Why not?
- MM-88 was a failure.

- It was benign.
- He's lying.

Senator, I have had enough accusation
for one afternoon.

Now I demand to know the source
of this horrible slander!

Sir, this man is a paranoid
schizophrenic, I can vouch for that!

Well, there you have it.
Rumours from the funny farm.

This is Doctor Baldwin's report.

Doctor Meyer is incurably sane.

It took us a while to find that out
because Col. Rankin had put him away.

Colonel, why was he committed?

To keep him from passing information
about Operation Phoenix to my subcommittee.

Rankin, I could have you shot!

You have been relieved
of your duties!

Tell me something:

is this, Italian flu,

actually MM-88?

I'm sure of it, sir.

Sir. I fully support you in this
last ditch effort.

But I must stress the importance of a
strong military posture at this moment.

Again I urge a stage 1 alert,
including the ARS activation.

General,

get out of my sight.
-Mr President... -I said!

Get out of my sight.

Gentlemen, we will place a lid of
complete secrecy on this situation.

On the contrary, sir,

we need to enlist the aid
of scientists from all over the world.

Out of the question.
But, Mr President!

Top secret!

Now, what do you need?

Yes?

I understand.

My wife... has come down with the cold.

What do you need, Doctor?

What do you need?

September, 1982.

New York - 7.4 million dead

London - 6.9 million dead

Paris - 2.3 million dead

Rome - 2.9 million dead

Moscow - 7.8 million dead

Tokyo, 10 million dead

Miss Yoshiko.

Miss Yoshiko.

Akira!

You're here!

You're alive.

I'm sorry.

You were lonely, right?

Akira,

do you want to come with me
to where papa is?

What about mama?

Your mama...

can't come with us.

That's why
I'll take you to papa.

Papa will be happy!

Are you cold?

Please.

Eat this.

What is it?

It will stop you
from being cold.

What's wrong?

It's nothing.

Akira.

Try calling your papa.

Papa.

Louder.

Papa!

One more time.

Papa!

Papa!

Is that you, Tatsuno?

Tatsuno!

Hey!

Tatsuno's gone somewhere.

- What?
- Stay here.

Tatsuno!

Tatsuno!

Tatsuno!

Tatsuno!

Tatsuno!

Tatsuno!

Tatsuno!

Yoshizumi!

Hey!

Yoshizumi!

Yoshizumi!

You can't go any further!

Let's search again
once the blizzard has ended!

Let me go!

Yoshizumi!

Tatsuno,

has gone to join
his wife and child.

If I could,
I'd do the same thing!

Tatsuno!

Yoshizumi!

This may be the last sunset
we'll ever see.

If we only had a little more time.

Those were Doctor Meyer's last words.

God, how many entire civilisations
have sputtered out with those words?

As our speech writers are so fond
of having to say about history:

"Those who can't remember
the past,

are condemned to repeat it."

Those of us who can.

I wanted my name to be entered
into the history books.

But I wanted it to be for something
meaningful, something...

lasting.

What could I have done that would have
made the slightest damn bit of difference?

What could I have done?

Maybe it will snow.

Might give us a little more time.

How?

Meyer said that the virus remains
dormant in cold temperatures.

Well, it's not going to snow,
senator.

Besides it has to get

damn cold...

- Antarctica?
- Palmer Station!

Come on, there must be someone.

Yes, Mr President?

Get me Palmer Station!

They have been snowed in
all this time.

You 'n the research crew could be
flown down. It'll be safe there.

We'll make it.

God willing.
Not we, Mr President,

You.

You represent the nation.

The government must continue.

You were my opponent in every
political battle.

But you were never... you were never
my enemy.

Palmer station, Mr President.

Palmer station, this is the
President of the United States.

This is Admiral Conway here,
Mr President.

I would like the entire American
continent to hear what I have to say.

Has the sickness hit
your station yet?

No, sir. There is no sign of
any illness here.

And the other stations?

There are no reported illnesses
at any of the stations,

and we are in more or less
regular contact.

How bad is it, Mr President?

Pass me through to the other
Antarctica bases.

All of them, sir?
All of them, Admiral Conway.

Right away, Mr President.

Soviet union's Mirny station.
Attention, attention, all stations!

Please stand by for an important
message from the President of the United States.

Chile's Frei Montalva station.
All personnel, all stations, must...

repeat, must listen to the
following message.

Please stand by.

It is with great regret
and personal sorrow,

as well as the position of the
government of the United States,

that I officially confirm what
most of you already know.

France's d'Urville station.
The world has been beset

by a horrible plague.

And now we are unable to devise
an effective vaccine.

The United States has sustained

casualties of the greatest
magnitude.

No country has escaped
a similar fate.

We do know something about
this virus.

We know this virus remains dormant
under sub-zero conditions.

For this reason
you in Antarctica,

have not been affected.

Do not leave your sanctuary.

Do not allow those from the outside
to enter.

Under no conditions
try to return.

I...

offer you no solutions...

No hope.

Other than that somehow
you may prevail.

This time try to work it
out together, please.

Please.

And may god bless you all.

Mr President, I formally
request that you...

under this authority granted by Congress and by
the constitution of the United States of America,

meeting your responsibility to defend
this great land against all enemies

internal and external, give the order

to put our retaliatory forces
on full alert, stage 1,

including the activation
of the ARS!

You are a fool, general.

There's nobody left.

General Garland, zx-34!

This is General Garland speaking.
In the interest of national security,

I'm activating the ARS!

November, 1982

Dawn already?

Want me to drive?

I'm alright. Please sleep.

I can't.

Only five days left
until the antarctic conference.

Until we reach Palmer station,

we'll have to keep this pace.

Will all 11 countries

be at the Antarctic conference?

They should be.

It's a meeting
to decide the fate

of the survivors, after all.

We can't be late.

Wait a second.

Hit it again!

It's no use!

I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

What should we do?

There's no time!

Shall we walk?

Walk?

We're still 620 miles
away from Palmer Station!

Even I couldn't be so reckless.

But since we've come this far,

Norway's station
should be close.

We should be fine
if we go there.

Hello! Is anyone in there?

Hello!

Is anybody...?

Please, listen to me.

Open the door. We are
from the Japanese Winter Team.

It's alright.

It's alright.

What's happened here?

She's pregnant!

We were just sitting there,

not talking.

The radio man shot himself,

then everyone went mad.

My husband pulled out a gun,

and pointed it at me.

I ran.

But he just came after me.

I closed and locked the door

and he just kept banging.

Then someone shot him.

Yoshizumi.

Yes?

Can you stay here
with that woman?

Huh?

I have to get to the
conference on time.

So there's no way,

I can take a woman about
to give birth along with me.

Since you're single,
please take care of her.

I understand.

I'll figure something out.

To give birth at the South Pole
in such times as these?

I hope the birth goes well.

We are, almost certainly, all that is
left: the sole survivors.

855 men and 8 women.

We have supplies to last us for 2 years
at the present levels of consumption.

But we must work together,

pooling our scientific knowledge so we
can survive until the virus dies out.

And that is the purpose
of this meeting:

to devise a plan to enable us to deal
with our present situation.

We are not completely isolated here,
are we, admiral? Not after the thaw?

What do you mean, Doctor Tarovish?
You have an icebreaker

that was not able to make it out
before the last freeze,

and it's been here all winter, so,

we could, in fact, go back,
if we so elected.

To what purpose go back,
Doctor Tarovish?

To what purpose stay,
Admiral Conway?

There are some who might choose to
go back and make the best of it,

instead of spending the rest
of our lives here, marooned.

There is no best of it to make,
Doctor Tarovish.

The question before us is how best to
organize the resources at our disposal.

I do not have to listen to you any more
Borodinov. You have no tanks here!

Gentlemen, gentlemen, we must not allow
this to degenerate to personal levels.

But Dr. Borodinov is absolutely correct.
We must establish our priorities.

Admiral Conway! Representative of the
Soviet Union whose rank is not clear.

Fellow survivors,

all my life I have waited to tell the
representatives of the Soviet Union

and the United States, how tired I am
of listening to them

lecture the rest of the world on
what is best for all of us!

So at this time with your
kind indulgence

I would like to do just that!

- Not now, Lopez.
- Exactly what I would expect from Argentina!

Gentlemen! Gentlemen!

If you people wanna hurt each other,
I suggest you use this.

It's a lot more effective.

You Americans have
a certain directness.

As though we needed another
method of killing ourselves.

- Mr Nakarishi.
- Yes?

Thank you.

May I have your attention, please?

I've just received a notification from
my courier that a Norwegian survivor,

has just given birth to a baby girl.

Rather unfortunate being
Born into this situation.

Not necessarily, Doctor.

That will be up to us.

If there were still a world out there,

I'd be a father by now.

Has she chosen a name
for the child?

Gry.

Gry.

I like the sound.

�Gry� in Norwegian is a word meaning,
the first light of the sun.

The dawn of a new day.

Yes?

You have a message.
A message? From whom?

From the federal
council of Antarctica.

I've never heard of them.
Neither had any of us before today.

We are here. We must have
a government.

One of their first ever official
actions was to issue a proclamation

welcoming Gry to the
new world,

and wishing her every happiness.

- Every happiness?
- Also.

They want to know if the council
can serve as a collective godfather.

How nice of them.

Rape is rape! The fact is Sylvia
was attacked,

and it cannot be allowed
to happen again!

My dear,

I'm sure no one wishes to minimise
the seriousness of what happened.

However, we are dealing
with the human animal�s

natural reaction to the
threat of extinction,

which is to reproduce,
to propagate the species.

It is regrettable,

but inevitable.
This is not the point!

If this council cannot take care of
their eight women,

well, then, gentlemen, this whole thing
is just a joke!

Of course there's truth in what you're
saying, we must protect our women.

- I...
- Oh, let's face it.

What we really need is a completely
new attitude toward human sexuality.

In a community of 855 men
and 8 women,

conventional one-to-one relationships
between men and women,

Will not be possible.

Well, that may be so.

But I agree with Doctor Latour
that we should be concerned

with the instinct for survival,
and think of brothers and sisters,

for little Gry.
- Indeed.

The question now must be,
how do we go about it?

Doctor Allich?

Well.

We really do not know how
to go about it just yet.

Although the problem itself
is certainly clear enough.

Women have become our most valuable
natural resource.

And as it has been just
pointed out,

one-to-one relationships
are no longer possible.

This means that each woman,
however reluctantly,

will have to... accommodate
more than one man.

Of course, we will have to go
against deep personal feelings.

And this is an extremely
serious matter.

But somehow we must find the will
to suppress our instincts.

And that is what troubles
me the most..

Can we?

Can we control our instincts
with reason?

Unless we can,
there is no future.

The human race will die out.

It's too much!
How can we live like that?

Sylvia, from the bottom
of my heart,

I wish that I could
answer your question.

Admiral? Sorry, sir.

We've just picked up
a submarine distress signal.

Sir, they're on their way here
and they ask permission to disembark.

Palmer station?
No, sir, the Soviet station.

We intercepted the message.
It�s that Soviet sub t-232:

They are requesting emergency
assistance, sir.

And their condition?

This is Ensign Smirnoff speaking.

Active captain of Soviet submarine
t-232.

Ensign Smirnoff,
this is Admiral Conway,

chairman of the federal
council of Antarctica.

We understand that some of
your men are injured.

No injuries, admiral.

We have illness.

Our men need provisions
and medical attention.

What is the nature of the illness?

Italian flu.

In that case it is my duty
to inform you,

with great reluctance, that the
Federal Council of Antarctica,

refuses you permission to land.

What are you telling me?

Ensign Smirnoff, this is
Doctor Borodinov,

Commander of the Soviet
Antarctic Wintering team.

Ensign Smirnoff, Doctor.
Request the permission to land.

Smirnoff, it is not possible
that you should land.

You would infect us all.
You must understand.

Doctor Borodinov, my men
must leave this boat!

We need rest. We need
medical attention.

Can you hear me?
Doctor, can you hear me?

We will land! - You will not land.

- Who is this speaking?
- Her Majesty's nuclear attack submarine Nereid.

Captain McCloud at your service.
- This is not your concern, English!

We have the most profound sympathy
for your situation, Ensign Smirnoff,

but surely you realise you cannot
be allowed to disembark.

I have a responsibility
to my men!

You have a higher responsibility.

There is nothing more to
say, Captain McCloud.

Captain McCloud, what is
your present position?

Sufficiently close, I should say.

Then, Captain...

Do what you have to do.

(Russian Dialogue)

Load number 4-2 with sub-rocket

Target range: 6000 yards.

Target range: 6000 yards.

- Set!
- Fire!

Your tight little island remains
secure for now, Admiral Conway.

Farewell.

Captain McCloud...

We owe you our thanks.

Where will you go?

Like the Flying Dutchman, we'll
just sail on.

You chaps still have a good shot at it.
Don't let us down.

- Captain McCloud.
- Yes, sir?

How long have you been on station?
Since February.

That's winter back there.

Captain, I want you to answer this
next question very carefully.

Are you or any of your men infected?

No, sir, we're not.

It must be unanimous.

Captain McCloud, would you care
to come aboard, sir?

Yes, sir, I believe we would.

Good.

We look forward to it.

Stand by to surface!
Stand by to surface!

Stand by to surface!

One year later, virus MM-88
continued to occupy earth.

Mankind remained holed up
on the icy continent.

Doctor Latour is not joining
us this evening?

No, he went back to his laboratory to
work on the vaccine against the virus.

Was I wrong, I wonder, to allow
Latour to bring that virus sample

here to our sanctuary?
That's hard to say.

Mind you if a vaccine can be developed,
Doctor Latour is the man to do it.

He told me so himself.

Surely they must have tried
it out there.

They must have tried.

Let's see what we can do
with this big fellow.

Hey major, could you tell us something?
Who the kid looks like, him or me?

Me, you twit, it's obvious, innit?

Come on, major Carter, which
one, basically speaking?

What is it, a boy or a girl?
- What difference does that make?

Because if it is a boy,
it will partly look like you.

And if it is a girl? - Then it will
partly look like its mother.

Now would you two please
leave me alone? Thank you.

Ohh, she's beautiful.

Excuse me.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

- From Gry.
- From Gry?

- Please thank her for me.
- Thank her yourself.

What's the matter?
Don't you like children?

There's was a time perhaps
when I did not.

I don't understand.

Sometimes I cannot express
myself very well.

- Marit?
- Yes?

I believe we have
an appointment.

I could come back later if you like.
No, there's no need to come back later.

You sent for me, Admiral Conway?
Yes, Doctor Yoshizumi.

Would you come in, please?

It appears we may have a small
problem here.

Would you mind explaining
what this seismic map means?

I did it in my own time. - Yes, of
course, but would you please explain it

in layman's terms?

Well,

out here is the
Baltimore canyon,

where offshore oil drilling
had recently started.

In my field of earthquake prediction,
I became extremely interested

in this situation. - But, that is
not an earthquake prone area.

You're right, Captain Lopez. I was
concerned about what might happen,

when the trapped oil in this area
was brought out.

The tremendous weight of the sea
pressing down, it could lead

to a tectonic movement of a
great magnitude.

In this particular area there are
various deep gradients

between the Baltimore canyon
and the Appalachian formation

which could result in a very
critical condition.

What is the expected magnitude of this
earth tremor if it occurs?

Between 8.6 and 9
on the Richter scale.

You placed the epicentre here? - Yes,
within 100 miles� radius from that point.

That means that Washington DC
could be severely affected? - Yes.

Doctor, let me ask you. Could this
shock be as great as nuclear explosion?

Well, the rapid vertical movement
of the shock pattern,

would be like the shockwave
of a nuclear explosion. Yes.

I should emphasise, however,

this earthquake will occur
in the Eastern Seaboard area,

not here. - When would you expect
this earthquake to hit?

Within a month.

Major Carter, I think it's time
you told everybody what

you already told me. Gentlemen,
by way of explanation,

Major Carter is a former staff member
with the Defence Intelligence Agency.

He acted as a liaison to
the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The United States has in place a retaliatory
missile system called the ARS.

Automatic Reaction System.

An earthquake of the magnitude
indicated by Doctor Yoshizumi...

would trigger the ARS.

Now the United States military

was very closely coordinated with
that of the United Kingdom.

Captain McCloud, sir?

Major Carter is quite
correct, gentlemen.

About a year ago, in September,
while on station,

we on the Nereid did indeed
receive the activation signal.

It was ather surprising, I might add,
because we assumed

there was no one left alive in
Washington to send it.

I think it's imperative that you,
gentlemen, hear some cold facts,

from my Soviet colleague.

Captain Nievsky?

What?

The first missile to hit
Russian soil,

will set off our entire
retaliatory force.

Our system was activated
over a year ago.

But that's not all, I'm afraid.

What do you mean?

The opinion was held
at one time,

that the United States was planning the
construction of a secret base,

here at Palmer station.

I believe that Palmer Station
is targeted. - What?

That is insane!

The United States have no particular
monopoly on idiots.

But this is... impossible!

How long are we to be
Haunted by our past?

There is one thing we could do.

Send someone to Washington to
disarm the damn thing.

But...

What about the virus?

If you're right about the
earthquake, what choice have we?

Admiral, this is stupid.

Yes, this is stupid!

Admiral, I'm going myself.

Excuse me.

It's all right, Doctor.

Major Carter is correct.

It must be him.

He will need help.

Major Carter!

You are not going, pal.

You cannot do this alone.

If I was gonna take someone with me,
which I'm not,

it's sure as hell it
wouldn't be you.

Why?

- Doctor, have you ever handled explosives?
- Yes, many times.

As an earthquake experiment.

Well, even if you have
handled explosives,

you'd slow me down.

No.

I don't wanna hurt your feelings, doc,

but you're not physically
tough enough for the job.

I'm sorry.

No!

You're gonna go on back home now,
you understand? Now get up!

I suggest you get out of my way
and get on home. - No!

Arrgh! Goddamn it!

Jesus Christ, you bit me!

Life is wonderful.

Hey, Yoshizumi, how do you say "life is
wonderful" in Japanese?

Gentlemen, a toast is in order.

You'll leave early tomorrow morning.
To your success. - Success. - Success.

How quickly the last few days
have gone.

If only we could turn
back the clock.

How many days will it take
to reach Washington?

Ten days, I should say.

Eight women and children and a skeleton
crew will get underway,

on the ice-breaker
first thing in the morning.

If worst comes to worst,

they should still be out of range
when the missiles hit.

Assuming the missiles are accurate
enough to hit the base.

There is no question of our missiles
not hitting the target.

That's very reassuring.

And what about the rest of you?

The rest of us will hope for the best.
Sure.

Major Carter, I have been saving this
for a very special occasion.

I really shouldn't take it, sir, and
drink it by myself, but I will.

If Carter's going to get drunk tonight,

you don't wanna be
in the same room with him.

- Here's my room.
- No. - Please.

(Sings in Spanish)

Thank you.

Dark hair.

She had dark hair too.

The child,

would have had dark hair.

Noriko!

No more! That's it done!

I'm sorry.

Please forgive me.

Yoshizumi.

Bonjour. - Doctor. - I trust you will
forgive this last minute intrusion.

But, without going into
boring detail,

I believe... I believe,
mind you,

that I have developed a vaccine
against the virus.

- But, how?
- Well, to simplify,

it appears that high levels of radiation
introduced into a living virus cell,

create an effective antibody.

Of course, I cannot force anyone
to become a guinea pig.

But, under the circumstances...

What the hell.

The effect should be immediate.

To minimise the danger to the crew,

do not inject yourselves until
just before you leave the submarine.

If it does not work,

please report your symptoms,

as long as you can.

We will do our best.

Oh god, make him come back!

You chaps alright?
Fine, thank you.

He certainly sleeps a lot, doesn't he?
I too sleep a great deal.

We were speaking of it yesterday. We
have never slept so much before.

- I know.
- Oh, come on, Captain.

When do we get to Washington? - You've
got five days more to sleep, major.

That long? - Still within your
deadline, is it not?

Yes.

But... earthquakes do not always
occur on schedule.

Maybe we should try to force it.

You got any more surprises
for us, Doctor?

United States - Potomac River

Nothing to it.

Washington DC, gentlemen.

Take a look.

Major Carter, everything you need
has been launched with the life raft.

Thanks, Lieutenant Commander Jones.

Okay. We�re gonna be out.

- Good luck.
- Thank you.

And save a couple of beers for us.
- Real... or American??

I don't care as long as
they�re cold.

May god go with you.

What the hell! Is this it?
I don't think so.

Not yet.
I hope you�re right, there.

Watch out.

Here, take cover.

Are you afraid of heights?
Sometimes.

Well, can you handle this?
I must. We're running out of time.

All right.

Let's go.

Can I do anything for you?

Major Carter!

Go!

Go!

It's too late.

Major Carter, it's too late!

Yo... shizumi...

How do you say...

Life is wonderful...

in Japanese?

Jinsei wa he monoda.

Jin... sei

-wa...-wa

...he monoda.

h...he...

Nereid? Submarine Nereid?
This is Yoshizumi speaking. Over.

This is Nereid. Over.

We were too late.

Save yourselves if you can. Warn
Palmer Station to evacuate.

We tried. We tried.

We know you did, Yoshizumi.

There's just one more thing.
Tell Doctor Latour,

his vaccine seems
to have worked.

In case that still matters.

The world died again.

Several years later...

What are you doing,

alone in a place like this?

You won't answer me?

Then, keep sleeping
there forever.

Where are you going?

My friends and my child
are south of here.

Your child? Is it yours?

No, but I love him very much.

It's no use.
There's no one left.

But I'm heading south anyway.

Don't you understand?
Winter is coming.

We have very little food left.

We should head north now.

What's the point?

The virus would kill us anyway.

We've all had been vaccinated
against the virus.

Which is why we�ve survived
the last four years.

Besides, with all the radiation
released by the bombs,

the virus is probably no
longer a threat.

It doesn't matter anymore.

My child is dead.

I'm tired.

It doesn't matter.

Yoshizumi.

Yoshizumi!

Yoshizumi, you are alive!
You are, you are!

He's alive!

C�est un miracle!

C�est un vrai miracle!

Alive...

life... is wonderful.
