All language subtitles for Project Blue Book S1E6 The Green Fireballs

Preview on the project for the book. I
didn't pay much attention to these

stories until I had my first encounter
with a UFO.

I'm identified flying up there.

Hasn't caught on yet. I don't care if we
have to drop a nuke to take Fuller out.

There's a lot of people looking for you.
This is where it all started. The

program. Do you want to tell me about
that? We get messages.

We're the antennas. I keep seeing this.

I'm sorry.

No, stop!

When you see someone die, it's tempting
to wanna blame yourself.

Gary Cooper every time. There's no way
he could take John Wayne.

The Duke, man, the toughest guy in the
movies. Cooper's smart.

You know, you see it in his eyes. He's
got tactical superiority.

John Wayne would knock that tactical
bullshit right out of his head.

What the hell is that?

It's a launch on the team.

What the hell is going on?

It's a drill!

Come on!

The test is supposed to be tomorrow!

0800!

Launch sequence started on its own. We
did not initiate. You need to evac the

area now.

the whole system give me the coat i'm
trying none of the overrides are working

we're gonna nuke our own men

The missile's secure.

Launch aborted. I repeat, launch
aborted.

I repeat, launch aborted.

All is clear.

You're safe.

God heard my prayer.

I don't think prayer can stop a
countdown. There's got to be some other

explanation to the supreme being.

I don't know what that is.

Everybody

else

thinks I'm crazy, doctor.

in the morning.

What in the world are you doing?

Good news. My camera matrix project was
approved.

I have no idea what any of that means.

It means I have a lot of work to do.

You've been cooped up in here for two
weeks.

You never sleep. You barely eat. You're
scaring me. There's nothing to be afraid

of. Just go back to bed.

No! Haven't you had enough of this?
Because I know I have.

Mimi, please.

That man, Fuller, he was inside this
house.

Please don't talk about this right now!

Please!

There are things I can't tell you. I
just, I can't.

Are you leaving again?

In the morning.

Where?

We need to meet him.

Didn't get back to me, so after recent
events, I reached out to them again.

Now people start spotting these green
fireballs from Mars. They're not from

Mars.

They're meteors.

Whatever they are, get where the
generals want to pull the trigger now.

People on edge after what happened.

Yeah, well, I think I'm going to change
that with my project.

Because I am going to use science to
reveal the truth, while the truth might

be... Sometimes less entertaining than
unfounded speculation, there's safety in

the certitude it provides.

Right now, we all lose.

Everyone.

There's too much at stake.

Hey, sir.

Dinka's going into town to pick up some
sandwiches.

You want a pastrami?

You asking a grown man born two city
blocks from Captain's Delicatessen if he

wants a pastrami sandwich made in
Nevada?

I guess not.

Good guess.

You saying I'm crazy?

Well, you did mention you stopped the
launch countdown with prayer.

I'm not so sure about that anymore.

What we are certain of is that we saw
something not of this world.

Professor Eineck would agree with you.

Right then.

What you likely saw were meteors.

These things came straight at us.

They went along the horizon and shot
back up into the sky. Can a meteor do

Under the right conditions.

Low cloud cover, high humidity, light
from below can distort its path, yes.

Could have been a flare, too.

Plenty of GIs in the area with duffel
bags full of...

Liberated ordnance? Too much time on
their hands?

What kind of flare can set off a launch
countdown?

Secretary.

Dr. Hynek.

What do you think?

Can we get to the bottom of this?

Once the Matrix is in place, I am
convinced you will have the proof that

need.

And you're thinking nothing more than
medias? Ah, it's the only logical

explanation. Did the generals arrive
with you as well, sir?

Should we include them in this
conversation? The generals are not here

involved. Any questions or concerns you
have moving forward, you run them

through me.

Is that clear?

Yes, sir, but are they aware?

Is that clear?

Yes, sir.

Once you're set up, I'd like to come and
take a look.

Let's keep you posted?

Of course. Great.

Captain?

What the hell did you do?

You were behind Harding's and
Valentine's backstabbers? I told you,

Force rejected me once already.

But you reached out to Fairchild?

Did you realize you just dropped us
right in the middle of a war between the

Secretary of Defense and two of the most
powerful men in the Pentagon?

That kind of war leads to collateral
damage.

Harding.

That is a riff I'm willing to take.

What the hell's gotten into you?

I see nothing of value here.

Silly astronomers, just a stooge for the
Air Force chasing lights in the sky.

That is not an important relationship
for us.

It's a wild goose chase.

Unless, of course, the relationship
you're so concerned with is with his

Professor Hynek is in Nevada at the
White Forest Missile Range right now.

where the Americans test their nuclear
weapons.

This is the breakthrough he's been
waiting for.

We're needed elsewhere.

Virginia, former OSS agent, now working
for the CIA.

He has certain vulnerabilities that can
be exploited.

Our work here is done.

It's time for us to go. Get up.

Hello. I know you.

Yes, I'm a friend of Mimi.

Well, it was nice seeing you again.

I should get back to my friends.

Me too.

Who was that?

Mimi's neighbor, she's nobody.

Four to eight hours, I will get you your
evidence.

I wish they could fly to Ohio.

Green is a very interesting color in
astronomy.

Our eyes are more sensitive to green
than any other color. That's why it's so

often visible in the night sky.

These peyote -like cameras are going to
record the green fireballs. Based on the

soldier's testimony, the fireballs flew
overhead here, so...

This is as good a position as any for
the Matrix.

Right.

Now, when a meteor enters Earth's
atmosphere, it burns to such a point

outer layer vaporizes, and the different
metals in a meteor burn with particular

colors. Green comes from nickel, which
is the most common metal found in

meteors.

So how do these things work, then?

Well, each camera is fitted with a
motion sensor, and any passing object

triggers a photograph and a picture of
the three dials. These show the time the

photo was taken, the azimuth angle, and
the angle of elevation.

Azimuth? Yeah.

Right.

They're just going to blow him up. Why
do they need faces?

Realism is important to understand the
ramifications of nuclear exposure.

give me some help here?

Give me a second, will you?

Please. Please.

Don't hurt me.

Master Sergeant Edward Rizzuto.

Motor pool.

That's me.

How you feeling, Sergeant?

All right.

Scared.

Like I saw something crazy.

The green lights.

Dang it. You know what? I did this
backwards.

Asking how you feel before the most
important question.

What question is that?

What were you doing at the test site
without authorization or clearance in

first place?

Smoke.

How deep in the shit am I?

That depends on what you say next.

I met this girl in town.

We got to talking.

She heard about the green lights and
practically begged me to take her out to

see them, so I took her out to the
Target area.

We drank our way to a good bottle of
scotch, but I did most of the drinking,

and, uh...

Next thing I know, I'm waking up flat on
my back.

She's gone.

She took the car, took all the money out
of my wallet, and left me stranded.

He's 100 % full of shit.

How do you mean?

He drank a bottle of scotch last night.
I didn't smell it on him.

No? His hands.

You see his hands after he gave him that
cigarette?

Steady as a rock when he says he was
scared out of his mind.

The man's telling us his story doesn't
hold up.

Master Sergeant at the White Forest
Missile Range. He's hiding something.

We're going to find out what that is.
No, we don't. Look, not every case we're

trying to solve comes out of the sky.

Remember, there was nearly a nuclear
launch here that no one can explain.

guy's running around telling us... Our
job is to observe the meteors and

them on film. That man is not our
problem.

I'm going back into the field to finish
my work. You do whatever you want.

When the cat's away, the mice get to
have a little fun.

It has been fun.

What's going on, Mimi? You don't seem
like yourself.

I'm sorry. It's just that man that broke
into your house.

I know I still can't get over it.

It's Ellen.

Something happened recently, and I don't
know what, but he's hurting in a way

I've never seen before.

I wonder what it is.

Could it have something to do with his
job? What is it called again?

Blue Book?

Ever since he started there, he's had to
be so secretive. I know there's more

he's hiding, but he just won't talk
about it.

Well, then you've got to do something
about that.

For your own sake. For Alan's. I try,
but he just keeps pushing me out.

And what am I supposed to do?

You're his wife, Amy.

If he won't tell you the truth, then you
have every right to find it out for

yourself.

What are you doing here, Dr.

Hunter? I want to help you. The
encounters. We get messages.

We're the encounters.

There's nothing anyone can do.

Do you need help?

The strobing of those lights.

It must have... How are you here?

I'm here when you need me.

I'm here when I need you.

Could you speak to me in plain English
for once?

Good.

You're nearly ready.

Ready for what?

There's a church in town.

St. Dominic's.

Dominic the Ghostman was a Castilian
priest.

Patron saint of the astronomers.

Church bell rings every day at noon.

When you get your head together, come
find me.

Then we can talk.

Don't you dare leave me like this again
They're coming back You have work to do

I feel like a trespasser in my own home.

Isn't that part of the problem you're
trying to solve?

I couldn't do this if you weren't here.

You mean a lot to me. I'm just happy to
help.

I think I found something.

What is it?

It's a journal.

About his cases.

Thomas Virginia.

Lieutenant Fuller.

Fuller was just a boy.

Lost.

He had no idea how much and whatever
they did to him, whatever they subjected

him to, it broke his mind.

I tried to help him. I begged him not to
kill himself.

But he did.

And all I could do was stand there and
watch him.

I'm sorry. I think I need... Could I
just have some time alone?

I understand.

Hello. Hello, Donna.

Is Mimi home?

She's busy right now. I can tell her you
stopped by.

Okay.

Sure.

Thanks. It was really nice seeing you
yesterday.

I wish I could have introduced you to my
husband, but it just wasn't a good

time. Not a problem.

Have a good night.

Rizzuto is a Russian spy.

Born in the U .S. to Bolshevik parents.

Party member since he was in short
pants.

Your instincts were right on the money.

Jesus.

Where's the damn motor pool at the base?

I think it's that.

Enlisted.

We don't catch everyone.

Somebody's led you.

We believe it's being used by Ivan to
encrypt communication. The Verona boys

working their way through it.

So this traitor is gathering
intelligence on our missile tests?

Sir?

That may not be the whole story.

The green fireballs?

You're kidding me.

That's how we wish we were.

We're investigating the possibility that
their artificial device is created by

the Soviets to monitor our test sites.

So those bastards are running missions
in Barcelona?

In one way or another, yes.

But the American people can never know
that. More importantly, we can't let the

Russians know that we know.

Which brings us to the professor's
camera project. The project that we

The project that Fairchild is running
behind our backs.

What do you need me to do?

We need to talk.

Or I could talk and you could listen.

They're shutting us down.

Case closed.

Time to go home.

No.

You know, when I was working
interrogation, the best way to break a

him so his mind played tricks, don't let
him sleep.

But my mind has never been sharper.

Yeah, I can see that.

I don't believe the fireballs were
meteors.

Fancy cameras tell you that? I haven't
developed a film, but I am confident

they will confirm my teeth as yet. Oh,
well, as long as it's up.

You know what I saw?

Well, here's what I see.

A witness who hasn't slept in weeks,
whose mind is bouncing around his head

a pinball in a pinball machine.

He's angry all the time.

When he's not angry, he's confused. Now,
this witness, this man, has a story to

tell, but not a shred of proof to back
up his claim, other than to say so. I'll

develop the film.

I'll prove it to you. That's a negative.
We are done here.

Finish like it never happened.

The hell do you expect?

I expected to discover the truth. I
expected a partner who would back me up.

You weren't the fair child when the
generals weren't looking.

You got caught.

I warned you about that.

What we're facing now is just the
consequences of your own actions.

I wanted the truth.

I wanted to forget.

Can you just leave me alone, please?

First time I saw a man die up close, I
couldn't get it out of my head.

Whatever hard I tried.

I know you're hurting about Fuller, but
the hurt will pass because it has to.

And then one day his death is just going
to be a very bad thing that you don't

think about anymore.

Professor Hynek.

So nice to see you again.

You know what I love about churches, Dr.
Hynek?

They were built as a haven for those who
suffer.

But to suffer is to endure, is it not?

Who are you?

You do know those were not meteors.

The abnormally low velocity is proof of
that, yes.

And the fact that the flight path
doesn't match that of a meteor shower.

Which are horizontal, not perpendicular
to the Earth's surface.

Do you have a hypothesis as to their
origin, Doctor?

Russian surveillance.

Experimental spycraft of some kind, but
the technology is too advanced.

It's impossible.

Then forget about the science for a
moment.

What can you imagine, Dale?

The craft.

Some kind.

Piloted, not random.

Here to survey our nuclear testing sites
as if someone, something were

monitoring what progress we've made.

I'm not sure I'd call it progress, but
you're on the right track.

The only open question is, what if
whoever is watching

is determined that we've made more
progress than they're willing to allow.

That's what Fuller said to my wife.

You do know Lieutenant Fuller's death
was not your fault.

What do you know about all of this? Who
is watching our progress?

If I had all the answers, I wouldn't
need you, would I?

Need me?

What the hell do you need me for?

Is that for us?

Amended the state conclusively the green
fireballs were nothing more than

meteors.

Thank you, Professor.

Kim? Sir?

Professor?

Oh, uh, Professor, one more thing.

Yes?

I brought you into Project Blue Book,
didn't I?

Yes, you did.

Might even say, you owe me.

Yes.

Good.

Just want to be clear about that.

Very clear. Thank you.

But if you ever go behind my back to
Fairchild again, you and I are going to

have a difficult conversation.

And then I'll shoot at you so fast your
head will spin.

Professor?

I've got to dismantle the rest of my
equipment. I'll meet you later.

Roger that.

About every 75 years, Haley's comet
returns to us.

And on the day I was born, the comet
flew closer to Earth than ever before.

People were terrified.

They thought it was an omen, signaling
the end of the world.

My mother didn't agree.

She believed it was an omen.

Yes.

But an omen that announced my birth.

She believed that I would be a man of
great accomplishment.

Like a comet blazing across the sky.

But the truth is...

If there's one thing I know it's this.

You have no idea what kind of man you
can be.

I owe you a thank you.

That key you made opened a box in
Hynek's desk.

In there was a journal filled with
entries about his work.

And just as I thought, the professor is
doing much more than chasing lights in

the sky.

He's investigating experimental weapons.

Mind control?

Yeah, in the journal.

I told you I needed hard evidence.

I'm closer than I've ever been.

I just need you to stay out of my way.

Neither one of us can afford to be
careless right now.

I'm glad you feel that way.

Because there's something I need you to
do.

I think you'll find a handsaw works
best.

Mr. Rizzuto, we're going to have a
conversation.

You're still up.

Mimi, I'm sorry.

I haven't been myself.

The way I treated you the other night.

And not like you at all.

From now on, you and I, we are going to
work as a team.

No more secrets.

Yes,

it should be.

I don't know.

We are going to find out.
