All language subtitles for UFO s01e16 The Man Who Came Back.eng

Thank you.

Nothing, sir. The UFO has disappeared.

Well, keep all ground radar on. Red
alert.

Sir.

Is this the lunar module?

Yes, sir.

I'll feel a lot happier when I've
landed.

EER is 21 minutes.

Rendezvous four minutes, 18 seconds
later.

Fine.

This is Space Intruder Detector. Red
alert.

UFO 428 -146, green.

Trajectory 042 -7 over 5 .4.

Anything? Nothing.

I picked it up again, Lieutenant.

Of course.

Four decimal zero.

Your sightings are marked from us by the
moon. We'll pick it up in T -big zero.

Out.

Check the estimated re -entry time on
the module.

Yes, sir.

This is shadow control.

Relay your re -entry time and angle.

Re -entry begins in seven minutes.

Angle two -seven decimal five.

On a three -second burn.

Thank you, Captain.

Good checks.

Thank you.

The UFO thought it cost five degrees.
The interceptors won't make contact.

It could reach the lunar module before
re -entry, sir.

Make to the captain.

Emergency re -entry at an angle 3 -1.

Increase burn one second.

That's a tough order, isn't it?

Theoretically, the UFO could be on us in
four minutes.

The new angle takes us in in less than
three.

An angle of over 30 degrees, that's
pretty close to the upper limit, isn't

Yeah. It's like taking a head -on dive
into a bowl of molten lead.

It's possible, but you wouldn't do it
for kicks.

Sighting now in area blue, sir.

Termination? I don't have an affirmative
yet, sir, but it's definitely closing

on the module.

You've heard increased speed to thought
0 .6.

Even with the new angle, it's going to
reach the module before re -entry is

complete.

Warn them.

It's too late. I have re -entry
cessation on radio contact.

I don't get it, Lieutenant.

It's a lot slower than any other signal
we've ever picked up.

Yes, but we can't afford to take any
chances.

This is a red alert.

Repeat, this is a red alert.

Interceptors, immediate launch.

Still no increase in speed?

No, steady at 35 ,000 knots.

Moon -based interceptors, imperative you
obtain visual contact before making any

attack. Roger. Should go visual any
second now.

Interceptor leader to moon base.

Have visual contact.

Identify.

A little charred around the nose cone.

But it's all ours.

Paul, good to see you.

How are you, Paul?

Fine. Well, you gave us all quite a
scare.

I gave you quite a scare?

16 hours with no radio contact.

The transmission antennae was destroyed
in the re -entry attempt.

Yes, I read the technical report.

Why don't you tell us your version?

Version?

Yes. We'd like to know what happened.

From you.

You get my report.

Look, Paul.

There's nothing official about this.

What'll it be, coffee?

No, thanks. You go ahead.

How about something a little stronger?

You know I don't use it, Paul.

Never?

Oh, I was forgetting. The ice -cold
computer mind of Commander Straker can

rationalize his troubles away. Now,
look, Paul.

We know you've had a pretty rough time,
but Commander Straker doesn't have to

take that kind of stuff from anyone.

Maybe that's because nobody's dared to
dish it out to him before now.

All right.

Let's have it.

If you're talking about details of the
accident, you're asking the wrong man.

Who should I be asking? The man who
ordered the re -entry angle of 31

That, as you very well know, was me.

It was a dangerous but not impossible
angle. That depends upon your stage of

-entry. For us, it meant a certain burn
-up unless we leveled out. So you

overcompensated and bounced off the
atmosphere?

Yes.

Just had enough fuel to make it back
here.

It was a risk I had to take.

A risk you had to take.

Next time you have a risk to take,
Commander, let me know and I'll pick up

of that back -leave.

Past year, our rate of success against
UFOs has been impressive.

But by no means 100%. Like they used to
say in the old days, that would be like

asking for the moon.

Well, that's pretty much what I plan to
ask for, Alec.

Enough money to set up four new fully
automated moon bases over the next ten

years.

Private?

Let's work. Why don't you join us?

I think it's the only way to achieve
adequate backup capability.

Even against a massive UFO attack.

Who says they have the capacity to mount
a mass attack?

Nobody.

Because nobody really knows.

But they might have.

Next year.

Ten years from now.

And we have to be ready for it.

All right.

Let's hear your reactions.

Alec?

You're asking a lot.

And I think the council will fight you
all the way.

But I'm all for trying.

All?

I don't know.

Just exactly what is that supposed to
mean?

Well, let's just leave it like that.

No.

Spit it out.

Well?

Do you want it straight?

Yes, I want it straight.

But not here.

And I'd like to know just what you think
you're playing at. Hold it, Alec.

All right, Paul.

Let's forget rank for the moment.

Alec says you're asking a lot.

I think that's just one way of avoiding
the fact that you're asking to double

last year's appropriation. You're saying
you're against.

I'm saying we should rename the whole
thing Straker's Alien Defense

Organization.

I get the picture.

You think I run this organization for
kicks.

You think I ask for more money so that I
get bigger as Shadow gets bigger.

It's got a name.

It's called Empire Building. Now, look,
Foster, you've just about gone far

enough. It's all right, Alec.

Maybe you should have spoken up earlier,
Paul.

Maybe.

You said you wanted it straight.

That's right.

I have no time for yes -men.

I think you should put yourself on the
furlough roster.

Three to four months complete rest.

You think I'm falling down on the job?

I think it's got to you.

I think you're obsessed with Shadow and
Ed Straker.

I think you're making decisions without
any real thought to the consequences.

Like that re -entry angle?

Yes, like that re -entry angle.

Like spending millions on moon bases
when they're needed on Earth.

Like a hundred other instances I can
name. All right, all right.

Suppose Commander Straker took some
leave.

You got a replacement in mind?

Well, it's possible.

But why the soft pedal?

Why don't you just slap him back into
line?

Isn't that simple, Alec?

Well, if you take my advice, you'll
think about it.

The lunar module leaves for Earth in 17
minutes.

Well? I have to go.

I'll sleep on what you said, Alec.

Fine.

You do that.

Safe journey.

General Quarters. General Quarters. This
is an internal security alarm.

This is an internal security alarm.

Seal all exits.

I want Captain Craig found and brought
here.

Use stun guns if necessary, but I want
him alive.

Yes, sir.

What happened?

You tell me.

Look over there.

He's not here. Come on

Right. Continue search in Area 7.

What's taking so long?

We'll find him, sir.

Reception and embarkation area searched.

Sleep sphere checked.

Right. Move on to recreation area.

Negative. The explosive store's been
broken into.

Looks like a high detonation pack is
missing.

Hold it, Craig.

He's just entered the emergency exit
tent, wearing a space suit.

Order condition red.

This is control.

Internal security, condition red.
Repeat.

Condition red.

He gets near the air and water
installations with that explosive pack.

Why wasn't exit 10 sealed?

It's an emergency exit, sir. It remains
operational even during an alert.

All right.

Get some men out there after him. Yes,
sir.

And I want to check on all emergency air
supplies.

Yes, sir.

Oh, and find out where he got that space
suit. Right away, sir.

There's a spacesuit missing from the
legislature, but he won't get far. It

due for recharging. There's practically
no air left in the pack.

Scan the surface.

There it is.

We have no choice.

Use number four.

We have to use a missile.

No.

It's too close to our installation.

Listen to me, Craig.

We know what you're trying to do.

But it's 200 yards to that air and water
installation.

You'll never make it.

Lieutenant Craig, we realize you want to
destroy Moonbase. But you're destroying

yourself. Your air supply won't last.

All systems checked and okayed, sir.

Right.

Oh, stand down to yellow.

Yes.

The damage report, sir.

Thank you.

This is control.

Stand down to internal condition,
yellow.

Well, there's nothing here we can't
handle.

Thank you, sir.

What now?

Well... I'm going back to bed.

Aren't you interested to find out what
happened?

It'll keep us.

No one's going anywhere, are they,
Colonel?

May I teleprint a link to Earth? I want
to make a report.

Yes, Colonel.

Colonel Freeman?

Yeah?

I have a communication for you, Colonel.

Well? It's a somewhat unusual channel.

Well, all right, Lieutenant. What is it?

General Henderson wants to see you right
away.

He contacted you? One of his assistants
did.

Well, why not Miss Eland?

She usually deals with personal calls.

I was a little surprised myself.

Anyway, I was asked to give the message
only to you.

You're asked not to communicate it to
anyone.

Anyone?

Does that include Commander Straker?

Commander Straker was specifically
mentioned, sir.

I see.

That's what he said.

I appreciate it, Alec.

I'm not going to say they shouldn't have
told me.

Good.

So what's it all about?

Why don't you go along and see Henderson
and find out?

Well, you're wondering why I asked you
here.

More than that, I'm wondering about the
way you asked me here.

You mean my request that you should tell
no one about your visit?

I mean the fact that I was asked not to
tell Commander Straker.

And did you?

First chance I got.

You didn't finish it.

I don't have to. I've seen enough.

Is that all you wanted to see me about?

Sit down, Colonel, and listen to me.

Now, if this had come to me from a
shadow operative or even from a senior

officer, I'd have pitched it straight
into the ash can.

But it didn't.

It came from Moonbase.

From Paul Foster, the man who's back
straight when every fight he's got into.

If you say so.

I do.

Which makes Forster 100 % loyal.

Not anymore. Not in my book.

I have to take this seriously, Freeman.

That's why you're here.

Now, the basic allegation is that
Commander Straker has become mentally

with his command and has to be removed.

I want your opinion.

Did it make even you blush?

So there's nothing in Forster's
allegations?

Nothing. They're completely false?

Yes. Even this one?

The claim that Commander Straker plans
to request double his last year's

appropriation?

If it's true, it might go a long way
towards establishing a case for

the Commander is suffering from serious
delusions of grandeur.

Well?

Is it true, Colonel?

I told Henderson to ask you himself, but
he knew.

If someone had told me just a month ago
that Foster would do a thing like this,

I... Forget it, Alec. What do you mean,
forget it?

Listen, Foster didn't transmit that
information to General Henderson out of

malice.

There's got to be another reason for it.
Has there?

He's bucking for promotion, and he
doesn't care who he has to step on to

Well, there's only one way to find out
the answer.

Tackle him about it.

Thanks, Alec.

to their hotel and grab a cup of coffee.

All right, Paul.

You sent details of the new
appropriation request to General

That's right.

At best, that was a serious breach of
trust.

What are you trying to pull, Foster?

Stop you spending millions on moon bases
for a start.

You should know better than anybody that
a mass attack is on the cards.

Speculation. Half this job is
speculation. It must be. Yes, and it's

pretty expensive.

In the past four months, there has been
a marked fall -off in UFO sightings.

Which proves that our present equipment
is more than adequate. Maybe.

Or maybe it indicates a grouping.

A grouping for a much larger operation.

It's going to come.

I want to be ready.

I think you're wrong.

I don't care what you think.

I didn't come in here to discuss the
appropriation.

I want to talk about your future with
this organization.

Are you firing me?

Nobody gets fired from shadow.

Your report to General Henderson was an
inconvenience.

I can ride that out.

No.

You're free to express your right of
criticism of this command.

But you are not free to divulge
information given to you in confidence.

And if I do?

Let's get one thing clear.

I stick to my opinion.

I'm going to push for a change of
command.

How hard will you push, Paul?

As hard as Craig?

You still say he tried to kill you?

Yes.

With an empty hypodermic?

What did you say?

I told no one how he tried to kill me.

An air bubble in the blood.

Lethal.

And very difficult to prove the cause of
death.

Open it.

No use, Commander.

The doorway's sealed.

We won't be disturbed.

There must be a short circuit someplace.

Get the emergency power switched on and
trace the fault. Right.

Colonel.

Why don't you just think about this?

That's exactly what I've done ever since
that last re -entry.

We're switching to the emergency power
circuit.

Emergency power circuit now in
operation.

You're crazy, Foster.

You know that, don't you?

Am I?

You must be to think you'll get away
with this.

You run this organization too long, it's
as simple as that.

All right, Foster.

What do you plan to do?

You came into the control sphere.

You asked the girls to leave and lock
the doorway.

You tried to talk me back into line.

I refused.

You started throwing insults.

There was a fight.

You lost control and pulled a gun.

Your gun, Commander.

I got it from your locker.

I managed to jump you.

There was a struggle. And the gun went
off accidentally.

I got it in one.

If we bypass the damaged circuit, we can
link into the emergency supply.

Right. I want a couple of men outside
immediately.

Yes, Lieutenant.

One question, Colonel.

What happened in that module during the
16 hours of radio blackout?

All right, Foster.

Give me that gun.

Why don't you use it?

Makes no difference.

That shot punctured the sphere.

We're losing air.

This is the end, Straker.

Is it?

If you don't pass out, I'll kill you
with your own gun.

Yes, you try and get it.

I won't have to.

You pass out before I will.

That's it.

Fight it.

I can wait.

You see, it's a question of physique.

I'm younger.

Fitter.

Stronger.

You're forgetting one thing for a turn.

Willpower.

We've bypassed the circuits.

Okay. Stand by. The door should be open
in one minute.

Bye.

But why?

Why?

I don't know, Alec.

I just don't know.

Two men bounce off the atmosphere during
re -entry.

We know that a UFO was closing with
their ship.

Then, after an extended space flight,
they managed to limp back to moon base.

Now, what happened during those 16
hours?

Something pretty frightening.

Something traumatic enough to make both
of them...

Want to kill you.

Well, we may know more when the
psychiatric unit has finished its tests.

Now, Paul, let's go back to the lights.

The lights?

Yes.

The strange, strange lights you were
telling me about.

Now, Paul, you are in the lunar module.

You've been forced to abort the re
-entry attempt.

Check the fuel.

What?

Well, that's not enough.

Compute for lunar orbit.

The antenna is damaged.

No hope of radio contact.

We're on our own.

Go on, Paul. Go on.

It's later.

An hour later.

On course.

I said the fuel hole's out.

And then?

What happened then, Paul?

A light?

You saw a light?

A light.

So strong.

It's so bright.

It's blinding me.

What's making this light?

Where does it come from?

Kill. Where does this light come from,
Paul?

Kill. Pulse rate 104.

Still rising, Doctor.

Kill. Kill, Paul.

Paul Foster is finished.

Finished?

But you said yesterday that he was going
to be all right.

Yes, but in our psychoneurologic tests
we found that... Never mind the textbook

blurb. What happened?

Well, sometime during that space flight
in the lunar module, Colonel Foster was

subjected to a deep subliminal impulse.

Brainwashed? By who or whatever was in
that UFO?

Brainwashed? Yes, the impulse was
extremely powerful and...

And confined to one specific action.

To kill you.

But you said that Forster could be
completely normalized.

That's right.

But our latest tests have shown there is
still a trace of the impulse deeply

rooted in his subconscious.

Just exactly what does that mean?

It means that we can never be sure.

Sure. That next week, next month, or in
five years' time, the impulse might...

surface and foster subconscious will
force him to kill you it could happen

jackson you said we couldn't be sure so
there is a doubt

that's right i could be wrong foster may
have it under complete control

well surely there's something drugs
hypnosis

You know what this means.

Under no circumstances whatsoever. Open
it for 15 minutes.

Is that understood?

Very good, sir.

So this is it.

Thing is, I feel perfectly normal.

Oh, I don't blame you.

I know it has to be done.

I'd do the same in your place.

What did the report say?

I'm liable to crack up again?

Look, I know you just can't kick me out
of shadow.

I know too much.

Total security.

Well, for God's sake, get it over with.

I think there's a few things you should
know first, Foster.

The aliens planted one objective in your
mind.

To kill me.

The rest of your mind was unaffected.

I don't understand.

I know you don't understand.

The psychiatrists, they gave you a clean
bill of health.

If I'm okay, why this?

I think you said it pretty well
yourself.

You told me you were going to push for a
change of command.

Change of command.

Ten years.

I've given ten years of sweat and
sacrifice to get Shadow running the way

it.

And I won't let some young punk like you
mess things up.

You're a threat, Foster.

A troublemaker.

Now, I can't fire you, and I can't
shelve you.

So... I

don't believe you.

Doesn't really matter, does it?

Well, there's Henderson.

Now, he won't let you get away with
this.

Won't he?

And then there's Freeman.

What about Alec Freeman? I can handle
Alec Freeman.

Hold it, Foster.

Go!

Now, who do you think they're going to
believe?

I'm going to change your command.

Yeah, I'm going to throw ten years away
for killing you.

You're going to tell General Henderson,
huh?

God, God!

Now you take all this from me, Foster.

Now get back, stranger!

You're going to have to kill me, Foster.

No! I said kill me.

It's you or me. Shoot!

Kill!

I could have killed you any time I
wanted.

I'm sorry, Paul.

I had to do it.

I had to be sure.

If you were ever going to kill me, it
would have been just now.

Still haven't figured it all out, but
he's quite a guy.

Yeah.

All set, fellas?

Let's go.

To see General Henderson about the money
for the new moon bases.

By the way, Paul, I'll listen to any
reasonable arguments against it in the

Then I'll tell you how it's going to be.
