Previously on Project Blue Bunch. I've been thinking about what happened up

there. That plane over D .C.

UFOs. The symbol.

I keep seeing this.

Still aren't answering questions.

You work for the Russians.

You've been lying to all of us this whole time.

You inspire me.

My family.

Senator Kennedy is here to see you.

Project Blue Book. Senator.

Senator. What can we do for you?

Whatever you're working on, I need you to put it down. We have a situation

developing in the North Atlantic.

Ever heard of the doomsday clock?

No, what's that?

Scientists use it to calculate how close we are to destroying ourselves.

Oh yeah?

They just pushed it up this week.

What's it at now?

Two minutes to midnight.

Midnight is in.

They don't call it a doomsday clock for nothing.

Midnight? By my clock, it's already well past.

That's weird.

I watched that.

We're losing power?

Did you see that?

Is that the ghost ship?

That was definitely it.

No, I saw something else.

There it is.

Sir, are you seeing this?

Oh, my God, what is this?

Russian? Forward batteries, open fire.

Forward batteries.

Oh,

shit. It's going to hit us!

it as Russian aircraft.

But when I read the official report, I had my doubts.

And it's not one of ours? No.

Now the Navy's acting as if it never happened.

Operation Main Brace is going to be the largest joint military exercise since

World War I.

Nine countries, 200 ships, 80 ,000 men.

All the more reason that I should be fully informed.

But I'm not.

So what do you need from us, Senator?

I want you to investigate this sighting as a UFO occurrence.

I've already arranged to have you both flown out to the ship, assuming, of

course, that you're up for this. Well, we need to inform the generals first.

Don't worry about them. I can take care of that.

You just need to report back to me, and only me, about anything anomalous you

find out there.

Is there something else going on that we should know about?

I don't trust my intel right now.

Not since Fairchild's death.

But he trusted you.

He also thought when push came to shove, the military would do whatever it could

to cover up the existence of UFOs. But anything unidentified in a war exercise

this close to Russian soil is very dangerous.

So, I'll ask you once more.

Are you up for this?

Are you sure it's safe where you're going?

The entire NATO fleet's out there right now. It might be the safest place on the

planet.

What's that?

My final statement to the generals about Susie.

You want me to drop it off when I get back?

They actually want to talk to me about it as well. I guess to wrap it all up.

Hopefully then we can put all of this behind us.

It's open.

Finally cleaned up.

Yeah, but I moved a few things around. Now I can never find my keys.

Still in the door.

Your life's in it.

Dog tags.

Those yours?

Never used to wear them when I traveled during the war.

Figured it was bad luck.

So I always just hooked them there.

Anyway, come on, run it late as it is.

That is absolutely terrifying.

Admiral,

sir.

The men from Project Blue Book.

At ease?

Captain Quinn, is it?

That means you must be the brains of the operation, Dr. Hynek, yeah?

Yes, sir.

A special unit to investigate flying saucers. Whose clever idea was that?

The Air Force's, sir.

That explains a lot now, doesn't it?

Thank you for allowing us aboard, sir.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, Captain, but my men didn't see any spaceships

night.

I tried to make that clear to the Senator, but he insisted you still come

So, I did you the courtesy of compiling some witness statements.

That way no one's wasting time out here. The Russians sure aren't.

With all due respect, Admiral, Senator Kennedy sent us out to conduct our own

investigation.

My word not good enough for you, Professor?

Well, not unless you were an actual eyewitness, Admiral. And we are under

congressional orders. Isn't that funny? So am I.

Master Chief Harris, let's find our guests a room so they can interview our

witnesses.

That way you can do your job and I can do mine.

Yes, sir.

Anything else I can do for you, gentlemen?

No, sir.

He's convinced it was a Russian.

Stole a look at his charts.

Of course, he's mapped out.

The Admiral's bringing his fleet right to the edge of Soviet waters.

200 warships, 80 ,000 men.

It looked like we were invading. I thought this was just a training

Yeah, out here he can pretty much act under his own authority.

Especially if he feels threatened.

So unless we can prove this sighting was a real UFO... In a few hours.

We may be going to war.

Thank you for your honesty, Mrs. Sinek.

We know this has been quite a process.

What are you still looking for at this point?

I've told you everything I can remember at least five times.

And I'm sorry we have to keep putting you through it. I wish I could tell you

more. I just don't know what else to do.

You know, we might still have something, actually.

You know, when Susie first came, she told us that she had valuable

for us, but she insisted she would only share it on one condition.

She'd only tell it to you.

We're actually hesitant bringing it to your attention, but we have a situation

developing in the North Atlantic right now. That's where Ellen is. We realize

that we're putting you in an uncomfortable position, but we're

options.

And time.

So what we're asking is, would you be willing to talk to her under our

supervision, one -on -one?

How long will I have?

As much as you need.

Unless she does something that we don't like, your safety is a priority here.

I'd be more worried about her.

Sir, I don't know what you're talking about.

I didn't see anything that night.

According to this report, you were on deck during the sighting of the craft.

Sir, may I go now?

Well, if you do remember anything, we'll be right here.

Then we'll listen.

You can send the next one in.

Lying? Usually people lie about what they see, not what they don't.

Something else going on here.

Sir?

Permission to answer, sir?

Permission granted.

Sir, sir.

Sir. Sir. I really have no idea what you're talking about.

Sure, I was there. But I didn't see anything.

Why give a statement in the first place?

Sir, I'd take it back if I could.

Because I don't want to end up like them.

End up like who? What are you talking about?

Gerald?

No one.

Sir, are we done?

No. No, we're not.

Look, I understand.

You don't want to get yourself or anyone else in trouble.

So, don't talk.

Just point to someone who's willing to, and we'll take it from there.

Sir, they're not on there. Can you double check? I did.

Sir, I have a post I need to stand, and you've heard my statement.

Permission to be excused, sir.

Permission granted.

He's terrified.

They all are.

You know, it's almost as if the high -ranking commanding officer who steers

ship told them all what to say. And why give us only a partial list of witness

names if you scared them all into keeping quiet?

Because maybe the ones who aren't on the list insisted on telling the truth the

first time.

Disobeying an order from the Admiral would land you in the brig, yes?

Not if you're a high -ranking officer.

Sir. We're here to interview those men.

I can't let you in there, sir.

I have orders.

Well, the Admiral ordered us to interview all witnesses on this ship.

You saying you're going to dismay that order?

No, sir.

Then step aside.

Commander. Lieutenant.

I'm Captain Michael Quinn. This is Dr. Alan Hynek, U .S. Air Force.

Project Blue Book. We investigate UFOs, unidentified flying objects, and we've

come all the way from Ohio just to hear your story.

You were there in D .C., right? With lights over the Capitol? That's right.

And we heard you have an even better story.

In fact, it made it all the way back to Senator Kennedy.

What did he hear?

Sir, we'll say whatever you want.

Just let us know what you need to hear.

Oh, that's easy.

Just the truth.

The reason you're here, under guard, is that you tried telling the Admiral what

you really saw. He told you to lie, right?

Nobody will talk about it now.

But strange stuff has been going on since we got out here.

Equipment malfunctioning, pilots seeing strange lights in the skies.

And the ghost ship.

Ghost ship?

There's this boat that's shown up out of nowhere a couple times.

Fishing trawler.

He'd be there one second, and gone the next. It's a different thing to the

in the sky, yes.

Yes, sir.

That would come after.

And you told the Admiral what you just told us? Sir, he insisted it was

Told us to keep our mouths shut or we'd never get out of here.

But we had a little insurance policy on the deck with it that night.

It's got to still be up there where we hid it.

Clear?

There's going to be a lab on board.

Let's go.

Just a few more seconds, Captain.

Just go in there and speak freely.

We'll be right here behind you.

We need to alert Senator Kennedy.

Someone needs to shut down this entire operation.

We got a bigger problem than that, Doc.

Whatever that thing is, it's still out there.

One of my men took this?

Sir, this print shows a craft with no wings, no obvious source of thrust

emerging from the ocean.

What these men saw was real. This is proof.

You're right.

The Russians clearly have a tactical advantage here.

And unless I move swiftly, there's no telling what they might do next. What?

No, no, the Russians don't have this kind of capability.

Nobody does. Sir, Admiral, sir, we have a situation.

Unidentified craft approaching. What is it? What's its position? I don't know,

sir. It just appeared out of nowhere, a half mile ahead.

All stop.

Got a vessel in distress out there. Let's prepare to border.

Alert the rest of the fleet.

I want a fully armed boarding party on standby.

Let's go.

Let's go.

What is it? What do you see?

The ghost ship.

Which means a triangle craft should come next.

You told the generals you had something for me.

Is that the only reason you're here?

What other reason would there be?

Mimi, I'm sorry.

I don't expect you to forgive me. I don't. Someday you will understand why

almost got me killed.

Alan.

Our son.

What am I supposed to understand?

In some ways, you and I are very much alike.

We're nothing alike.

I asked for you because you are the only person.

This is the name and address of the highest ranking operative of ours in

She knows all about Blue Book, as well as Russian counterintelligence.

She's who the generals are looking for.

This is everything I swear to protect my entire life, Mimi.

And now I'm giving it to you.

You can at least understand that, can't you?

So that's why you brought me here.

Just to tell me that.

Hey, hey, hey, let her go. Let her go.

I was never going to hurt you. Get her out of here. I killed Cal to protect

That's what you meant to me. Get her out of here.

Will you see something now?

The markings in that vessel.

Take a look. It's right in Shanghai.

If I see, that's 11 ,000 miles from here.

Sir?

The boat is empty. Not a soul on board.

All right. That abandoned boat's a hazard for other ships passing through

area. Put a demo crew together. I want it sunk.

What? Yes, sir.

Why would you do that?

Where are we at with their chopper? Sir, the weather's forecast to clear in the

next few hours.

The second it does... I want them off my ship. Is that understood?

Yes, sir.

What the hell was that?

We need to get on that trawler.

Appeared out of nowhere, like the lieutenant said, right before the black

triangle came.

I want to know why, and that means we need to get on board.

Well, I'm sure if we ask the April nicely, he'll let us do whatever we

Captain, he didn't believe the photo, but if there's evidence on that boat to

prove our case... You realize that'd be risking a court -martial?

As opposed to World War III?

We can figure out we're here pretty quickly. I'd say we have ten minutes.

Or worse, they don't.

Blow this boat up when it's on it.

This way.

I think they're on to us, Doug.

Fuel tank's nearly full.

It says there were six souls aboard when they left Shanghai.

Look at that date.

Two days ago.

There's no way this boat traveled over 10 ,000 miles in two days and filled

a full tank of fuel.

Yeah, that's impossible.

Am I seeing things?

Was it a melted wood?

Not melted.

Fused.

Like the, uh, wheel somehow absorbed back into the bunk.

All the glass is fused, too.

Shh. You hear that?

What is that?

And where?

In the North Atlantic, near Norway.

No.

That's not possible.

Ship's log says there was a crew on board.

Where are they?

It looks like a boat.

I stayed with the ship.

That's what the captain does.

What's your name, Captain?

Turi. Turi.

Well, Turi, we got a U .S. naval fleet that thinks you're a Russian asset.

Now, they're on their way to apprehend all of us as we speak, so we're going to

need to explain how the hell he ended up here.

We were fishing, setting up the nets, and suddenly, how?

I would say this light coming

from under the boat, a craft of some sort.

This craft, what did it look like?

Triangle.

And it came up from under the water.

Fishermen.

They all told the story of the cities under the sea.

What do you mean, cities?

Where the triangle comes from.

Been here for thousands of years.

You're sure that this is what you saw?

I would bet my life on it.

We are not alone.

Unidentified vessel!

Hey, hey, let her go.

You?

Um, this is the address from the letter from Lena.

Who are you?

She, um, wanted me to deliver this to her.

Take good care of her, okay?

Pull the destroyers into position and put them on high alert. And I want the

frigates moved here to make room for the carriers by nightfall.

Admiral, sir.

You said bring them to you first.

Yes, thank you, Master Chief.

Gentlemen, come here. I want to show you something.

In the past eight hours, we've picked up Russian submarines here.

Here and here.

The entire carrier fleet has already moved into open water. They're preparing

for war.

And in the middle of this, I've had to stop this ship and send men out to bring

you back because you disobeyed an order.

And there was still a fisherman on that boat. He saw the triangle craft, and it

wasn't Russian. Is it a fisherman said it wasn't Russian?

Oh, I see.

So in your eyes, his word means more than the admiral of this ship? Sir,

was more evidence on board that ship that we cannot explain.

That you couldn't explain?

Try explaining to the President of the United States why you let Russia sink an

entire NATO fleet and fire a first strike on the mainland because a couple

insolent Air Force idiots showed up and tried to convince you that it was aliens

flying around your ship and not the communist superpower that has publicly

to destroy you. So now I'm going to throw you in the brig and ask you give

thanks for my having mercy on your sorry asses.

Now get off my bridge!

All the head full. All the head full.

All the head full.

All the head full, all right?

When Kennedy doesn't hear from us, he'll reach out. He'll help. It'll be too

late by then, David.

What was that?

It's coming from below.

Russians!

Sir, we got multiple targets moving faster than any known submarine.

Where the hell are they?

300 feet down. Looks like they're nearing some sort of... Some sort of

I don't know, sir.

Maybe... What just happened?

I'm not sure.

They could have disappeared into some sort of structure, but all the charts we

have don't show anything down there. Whatever that thing is, if we can read

on radar, our depth charges can find it, too.

They're taking matters into their own hands now.

Where are we going?

How do you stop someone from making a horrible mistake?

You make the choice for them.

What are we doing here? I'm going after those things.

Hold on, you're what?

400 feet down.

This sub is capable of that. I can ID whatever's below, radio back up. Once

inside, you'll need to open the hatch that lets me out.

That's the switch right there.

I'm not doing that. Yes, you are. No, I'm not. Doc, if the Admiral thinks I'm

down there, he won't launch an attack.

But what if whatever's down there is hostile? What if it is the Russians and

made a mistake?

Is that what you really think?

Neither do I.

Do you even know how to pilot a submarine?

I had some basic training once.

Yeah, well, maybe you showed me how to make pancakes once, but I couldn't flip

one now if you gave me a snow shovel.

I don't know that I can do this.

I came so close in D .C.

If there really is something from another world down there, I want to see

it is.

This is why we do this.

Okay.

Be careful.

Careful would have been staying at home to begin with.

I'm doing what needs to be done.

Yep, charges.

Hedgehogs, torpedoes.

We'll throw everything we've got at them. Admiral, you can't fire now. The

captain's down there. You'll kill him. He's what? Captain Quinn's deployed

himself into a submarine. He's heading after those things.

You're not serious.

Oh, yes, I am. Check your gauges. Sir, we're in range and ready to fire. And

he's put himself in harm's way.

Don't you dare.

I will not risk the lives of all of my men for one of yours.

USS Wisconsin. You can hear me. Don't attack.

I'm nearing the site. Don't attack.

It's not a cave. It's something else.

It's beautiful.

Admiral, you can't do this.

I didn't do this.

You did. My responsibility is to the fleet.

No, please. No, you can't do this.

You'll kill him.

Fire at will.

Fire. Fire.

Admiral, no. You're making a mistake.

What's it say?

The events will be officially ruled as humpback whales diving above and beneath

the seawater, feeding on bioluminescent plankton.

It's done.

Yeah.

For now.

You didn't have any family that I could afford these on to.

to recommend him for the Medal of Honor.

I think that's the only right thing to do, Jim.

And the ghost ship would be there one second and gone the next.

The sea teeth under the sea.

But what if whatever's down there is hostile? What if it is the Russians and

made a mistake?

Is that what you really think?

Alan.

This is why we do this.

Alan.

You need to come to bed.

It's 2 a .m. You haven't slept in days.

No, no, no. Look at this.

One man missing, two left alive.

Traveling 3 ,700 miles in three days.

Two people missing, one left alive. Traveling 3 ,000 miles in two days.

it's just like the ghost ship. You need to let this go.

Alan.

Alan.

It's not a cave. It's something else.

It's beautiful.

can't be.

I can't say I'm surprised you found me, Doctor.

It is, after all, the logical choice.

Tierra del Fuego.

Last stop on land before Antarctica.

What does surprise me is that you accepted my invitation.

Well, I didn't.

In fact, you're the last person on Earth I want to see right now.

Then why are you here?

I need help finding someone.

Something tells me I'm looking at the only person who may actually be able to

that.

Who are you searching for?

What just happened?

What happened?

It appears that all our depth charges have been neutralized somehow, sir.

Where's the submarine?

I don't know.

Captain?

Quinn, do you read me?

Quinn, do you read me?

Captain?

Then what happened to the submarine and to the captain?

How could everything down there just vanish?

Doctor.

He found them.

And now, it's time to find Quinn.
