MARGO ON VIDEO: The defective LH2
valve which caused the Apollo 23 explosión

has been remanufactured by a new con tractor
and has passed all qual and acceptance tests.

We're ready to install it in
the second stage of Apollo 24.

But in the process of
de-stacking the rocket

there was a mishap in the
Vertical Assembly Building

and some damage was
done to the LOX vent lines

and the liquid
hydrogen fuel tank.

That stage will have to be
completely rebuilt before it can fly.

So we're replacing it with the second
stage originally targeted for Apollo 26.

But... that will take time.

So I'm afraid that the launch of
Apollo 24 will need to be delayed--

Another two weeks.
- BUZZ: Another two weeks.

BOHICA.

WEISNER: /'m sorry. We didn't get that line.
- / did.

Just more navy squid gibberish,
sir. Don't pay it any attention.

Says the air force puke.

How is the new job, Buzz?

You enjoying flying a desk
around the astronaut office?

Just keeping it warm
until Deke gets back.

/It's not the best job in the worid,
but | do have a really good parking spot.

President Kennedy would like
to extend his personal apologies

and to assure you that the
administration is doing everything we can

to get you home just
as soon as possible.

Well, please tell the president

that we appreciate the sentiment,
but we ‘re doing just fine.

Jamestown Base is operational

and will remmain so until
we 're properly relieved.

We got plenty of
work to keep us busy.

Mm. In fact, we're coming up on
a scheduled evolution right now.

WEISNER: Ah, understood. Houston out.
- Jamestown out.

NO SIGNAL TONE

HE SIGHS True American
her o es doing God's work.

| can only imagine what
it's like up there for them.

MUSIC: «The Bob
Newhart Show Theme».

TV AUDIENCE LAUGHS

That's a really nice piece
of equijpment, Dr. Hartley.

Yeah, | have to
get it hooked up.

Why don't you let me do it for you? !/
was a demolitions expert in the marines.

TV AUDIENCE LAUGHS
— That guy is really familiar.

Yeah, cos we've probably
seen this one about 500 times.

No, it's not that. He's
been on another TV show.

John Fiedler. Character actor.

Does a lot of TV.

Get Smart, Courtship
of Eddie’s Father

uh, Bewitched.

Anything about
TV you don't know?

No, there is not.
- HE CHUCKLES

Watched a lot of TV while my mamá
cleaned white la di es houses in Memphis.

TV AUDIENCE LAUGHS

BALDWIN: Hey, Dani, can
you hand me that toolbox?

Yeah.

MR PETERSON ON TV: / don't know
Ifit'll stretch that far. It comes in...

DANI SIGHS. - TV AUDIENCE LAUGHS

SHE SIGHS The ants... are
building their same tunnels.

Same as they were yesterday
and the day before that.

Yeah. — DANI: And
the day before that.

And the day before that.

| was afraid of my wife. !
was afraid of growing old.

TOGETHER: «I was
afraid of geese».

TV AUDIENCE LAUGHS

BOB: /f /| remember correctly,
you were afraid to get in your car.

TOGETHER: «Well, that was during the
period when | was afraid of upholstery».

TV AUDIENCE LAUGHS

Was he ever on, uh, Lost in Space?
- Star Trek.

Now you're just showing off.

Showing off would be telling
you that he played Mr Hengist.

BALDWIN: Still no signal.

Dani, you sure

you had a good connection on the
S-band leads when you hooked up the line?

Yep. Two green
lights. Solid connection.

My gift is you don't have
to come here anymore.

You, you're free to, uh... to go out
and face your own problems without me.

HE SCOFFS No way
that would ever happen.

Once a shrink gets you in their
clutches, that's it. You never get better.

Did they ever make y'all see a shrink
when you were testing for the programme?

Not «a» shrink. We saw
about five in those days.

You la di es got off easy.

Our shrink asked me if | ever
dreamt of having sex with my father.

Oh, yeah. — They
ask you that too?

Sure.
- BALDWIN: Yeah.

Except it was...

«Have you ever dreamt of
having sex with your mother?».

Yeah, the docs love asking

the «have you had sex with
a parent” dream question.

They're just hoping someone's
gonna say yes one day.

DANI: Yeah, what would that tell them?
- GORDO: Means you're gay.

DANI: Really?
- To shrinks, everything means you're gay.

Mm, that's why you don't go voluntarily.
- Right, but...

SHE GRUNTS Shit!

Shit, shit, shit, shit.
- Don't mess up my deck.

GORDO: Don't kill any ants.

SHE SCOFFS Thanks
for your help, guys.

Really. Appreciate it. SHE SIGHS

...a sort of
2000-mile check-up.

Hi, Bob.
- Hi, Bob.

Hi, Bob.
- Hi, Bob.

TV AUDIENCE LAUGHS

MUSIC: «The Bob
Newhart Show Theme».

How'd your interview
go with Levi Strauss?

HE SNIFFS

Uh, 1 didn't get it.

HE GRUMBLES Had a bad day.

Hand kept shaking.

Probably thought | was a
drug addict or something.

What did Dr. Corey say?

Cancelled that.

I-— | don't need... HE SNIFFS

...someone digging around my head,
trying to make it seem like I'm crazy.

That’'s not what it's about,
honey. He's just trying to help.

| don't need help.
HE INHALES DEEPLY

| need... | need something besides
bagging groceries to make a living.

DANI: We're doing
fine on my salary, Clay.

A man's not supposed
to live off his wife.

OK? It ain't right.
- Times change, baby.

CLAYTON: Alright, | can
do more than bag groceries.

Of course you can.
—|... HE CHUCKLES

| got a college degree.

SHE SIGHS — CLAYTON:
/ led a platoon in Vietnam.

You know, that—- that--
that man in that interview, he...

HE CHUCKLES

. he didn't even see me.

He was just looking at me
sitting there, hand shaking.

You'll get the next one, Clay.

HE SCOFFS. - DANI:
/ know you will.

Couldn't even
answer the questions.

I-- | kept getting confused.

It was like my... my mind was slipping
into this—- this hole, you know?

It was this dark hole that
| could feel pulling me in.

DANI: Clayton?
- Pulling me down. You know, | could...

| could feel it pulling me down.

And | wanted to go, like | was hoping
to get deep down in the dark and...

and at the same time, I'm—--
I'm—- I'm like»,shit», you know?

HE CHUCKLES, SNIFFS

Cos | know... | know something
/s waiting down there for me—-

DANI: Clayton.
- The second | look away, it's gonna get me.

It's OK, honey.

It is OK.

There is no hole.

There is nothing down
there waiting to get you.

SHE BREATHES DEEPLY
- CLAYTON SIGHS

You have to believe me.
- Hey, baby, | gotta——

/ gotta go, baby. OK?
Look, I'm out of cigarettes.

Clayton, we still have more time.
Sit——. - Talk to you next week. | love you.

Sit down, Clay. We—-

DOOR CLOSES. - SHE
BREATHES HEAVILY

Your psych profile indicates a
predisposition toward claustrophobia.

Odd thing to see
in an astronaut.

It was a childhood fear.

| got over it.
- HmMmm.

They told me my
answers were confidential.

In fact, they...

they said my entire medical
file was highly confidential

and not to worry
about anyone just, uh...

flipping through it.

Does this worry you?

No, it annoys me.

GAVIN: Well...

the FBI certainly doesn't want
to annoy you, Miss Waverly.

Too late.

You're aware that | have the
power to yank your security clearance

and bounce you out
of the programme?

I'm aware that the only reason I'm here
is because you think my boyfriend is gay...

which | find both
outrageous and offensive.

Larry is a red-blooded American
man with completely normal desires

and | won't sit here while you
cast aspersions on his character.

We're not actually here to talk
about your boyfriend, Miss Waverly.

We're here to talk about you.

Me?

GAVIN: | can't
figure out your story.

It's not that complicated.

Your mother's New York old money.
Your father be comes a pilot in the '20 s

He knew Amelia Earhart, is that
true? — And Charles Lindbergh.

He starts his own air
freight company in the '30 s

After the war, he's a
self-made millionaire.

Starts Cavalier Airlines in '48.

He gives you the flying bug.

You get a pilot
licence as a teenager.

MIT, aeronautical engineering.

Dad hires you at Cavalier
and you work there

until NASA starts looking
for female astronauts.

Doesn't make an ounce of sense.

You can't understand why a
woman wants to be an astronaut?

| can't understand
why Ellen Waverly

heiress, aeronautical engineer,
pilot and now astronaut

is with Larry Wilson.

He's a good man.

He's a homosexual.

ELLEN: You're wrong.
- | doubt it.

Why? Have you slept with him?
- No. Have you?

| don't think that is any of your
business. — Tell me about your first kiss.

It was at the movies.
- What movie?

Ryan's Daughter.
- What part?

When Rosy and Major Doryan
make love in the meadow.

Odd time to take your eyes off the screen.
- We were caught up in the moment.

| just don't know
why you're doing this.

I'm not doing anything,
except trying to keep you

from smearing the name
of a perfectly good man.

You're helping him hide a secret
at great personal risk to yourself

your reputation and your career.

Why?

| can't figure it.

But | will.

# You better watch out,
You better not cry... #

WALTERS ON TV: Salt Lake
City was host yesterday...

ELLEN: He didn't buy it.
- ...a game between the United States...

It was a worth a shot. Sometimes
the aggressive tack throws 'em off.

How much longer is this crap gonna go on?
- LARRY: No way to know yet.

But we shouldn't
trust the phone.

Don't they need a
warrant to tap our phones?

Uh... HE SCOFFS

J. Edgar Hoover may be dead,
but the feds are still lawless pricks

when it comes to protecting
Americans against sexual perverts

so don't trust the phones.

Jesús.

And back in Washington

accusations of an
extramarital affair

between President Ted Kennedy
and a White House staffer

named Mary Jo Kopechne

continue to roil the
White House toda y.

This follows last week's
publication of photographs

which appear to show the
president and Miss Kopechne

in Palm Beach,
Florida, last winter...

Maybe the FBI should
be looking into his sex life.

HE SIGHS. - WALTERS:
...goodwill trip to India.

RADIO STATIC

RADIO STATIC

Is that the Russian
carrier wave?

It's not ours, so
it's gotta be theirs.

SHE SCOFFS SOFTLY Could
be Gordo's red blinky people.

| never said they
were blinky people.

Just red lights.

Yeah, you also said you ain't been nipping
at that last bottle of Chivas, either.

That bottle's been
in my protection

and it has not been touched
by man or beast in weeks.

It's transmitting again.
- DANI: Mm-hmm.

BALDWIN: What is
that? Is that telemetry?

No, it's a short-range
VHF transmitter.

The Russian telemetry is
on a different frequency.

Bu-- But it has to be a
voice, and it's encrypted.

Well, they're obviously doing something
they don't want us to know about.

BALL THUDS — DANI: Like what?

BALDWIN: Installing
surveillance materials.

Maybe weapons. — DANI:
Do you really believe that?

Why would you want weapons on the
moon? Who you gonna be shooting at?

BALDWIN: You, me, Gordo.

SHE SCOFFS Well, everybody
wants to shoot at Gordo.

| heard that.

GORDO GRUNTS SOFTLY

Holy shit! — DANI: Uff!

Goddammit.
- There's another one.

DANI SIGHS: You OK?
- | saw at least two, back behind the rack.

DANI: You talking about the ants?
- Yeah, I'm talking about the ants.

GORDO GRUNTS AND sSsIGHS

We need eyes on that base.

You wanna start
spying on the Soviets?

They're spying on
us. | can guarantee it.

GORDO: Pick up your feet.
- DANI: Onh...

Pick up your feet. Pick 'em up.

Shit.

Tomorrow, | want to take the
rover and head along Broadway.

Swing around Mayberry and then
up the western slope of Mount Pilot.

See if there's any sign the Russians
have been on our side of the crater.

We're supposed to be
gathering ore samples tomorrow.

Yeah, we're gonna take a little detour.
- DANI: You gonna tell Houston?

We don't encrypt
our communications

so we gotta assume the Russians
are listening to everything we say.

DANI: Are you sure
you wanna do this?

Prep the rover for an extended
run. Gordo, let it go, man.

Can't just let 'em
run around in here.

What if they get in the circuitry
and short something out?

Wh-- What if they
get in the food?

DANI: Well, | could use a little
something crunchy in my oatmeal.

This isn't funny.

Those ants are NASA property,
and we're responsible for 'em.

Easy there, sailor. No one's
making fun of your ants, OK?

Fine. Let 'em run all over
the place. | don't give a shit.

MUSIC: «Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the
Ole Oak Tree» by Tony Orlando and Dawn

The damage
estimate is 150 dollars

to remove the offending
words and repaint the lockers.

That's a bit much for a bucket of
paint and a brush, don't you think?

RUSSELL: Well, the cost is not
really the issue, Mrs Stevens.

I'd like to talk about the
relationship between the boys.

My concern is that it's becoming
unhealthy and damaging——

They're friends.
- Best friends.

Practically grew up together. —
And that's not us defending them.

What they did is inappropriate and
wrong, and they'll be punished for it.

Absolutely, but
speaking of which

maybe that's part of the problem,
is a lack of discipline in this school.

I—- Is it true you've
stopped paddling students?

Corporal punishment in schools is becoming
frowned on in modern educational circles.

Well, spanking was not
frowned upon in my home

and now I'm an astronaut.

So, what does that tell you?

| think we're getting
a little off-topic here.

| think that, uh, the relationship, the
friendship, between Danny and Shane

while genuine and heartfelt

is becoming unhealthy,
particularly for Danny.

What?
- For Danny?

Yes, Mrs Stevens.

The teachers all agree that your
son is the follower in this situation

and that if not for the influence
of Shane, he would probably

not be participating
in activities——

My son is a follower? So he's weak?
- No, no, no. Shane is the problem here?

Sucks up to friends?
- Yeah?

BOTH: Is that
what you're saying?

Uh...

I'm saying there's a
dynamic at play here.

Shane is a natural leader,
Danny wants to please him

and the results are
toxic, antisocial behaviour.

I'm not listening to any
more of this. Let's go.

This is outrageous. | will be contacting
Superintendent Jones about this.

DOOR SLAMS

INDISTINCT CHATTER

What a jackass.
- Oh, he's...

Ugh!

| don't believe
him. — Course not.

BALDWIN ON COMMS: Houston, we're back
at the ranch now, so we'll be going off VOX

and we'll talk to
you after dinner.

CAPCOM: Roger that.
What's for dinner tonight?

DANI: !/ think Gordo's
making beef stroganoff.

BALDWIN: Someone
should tell the mess steward

serving Russian food on an
American base isn't exactly kosher.

CAPCOM: /'l send your note
to the kitchen, Ed. Houston out.

So you satisfied?
- HE BREATHES HEAVILY

We ran off 30 kilometres on the rover and
didn't see a single sign of the Russians.

I'm satisfied in terms
of what we saw, but...

the Soviets are crafty.

| know. | fought these guys
and their stooges in Korea.

They're always trying to gain an
advantage in any kind of situation.

And, well, we didn't even come close
to covering our part of the crater toda y.

So tomorrow, we'll have
to recon another sector.

«Our part.”

| love that it's our part now,
like... like somehow we own it.

Hmm. Kind of it how
it works, you know?

Whoever plants
the flag first, owns it.

Ask the Pilgrims.

And what if | ask the Indians?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Mm-hmm.

Uh-oh.

Shit.

MUSIC ENDS ABRUPTLY

Hi, Bob.

Don't fucking «Hi, Bob» me.

What are you doing?
- Just a little apartment hunting.

No one got hurt.

BALDWIN: We're out on
the rover, and you go AWOL?

We talked about this last time.

You don't le a ve the base
without authorisation, ever.

DANI SIGHS

Houston finds out about this

they'll ground you the
rest of your natural life.

Well, first they gotta
get me off this rock.

And they ain't doing
such a good job of that.

What if you'd gotten into trouble,
and none of us knew where you were?

I'm sorry, Mummy. Uh, next time
I'll le a ve a note on the refrigerator.

You think this is funny?

| think this is about
15 pounds of bullshit.

You and Dani are cruising around
looking for commie spies that don't exist

and I'm pretty sure you didn't
say squat about that to Houston.

No, cos we were maintaining radio security
while on a missión to protect this base.

Protect this base? Protect
what? This hunk of junk?

| mean, the shower only works
half the time. The food is lousy.

The toilet's backed up so much you
bar el y even notice the smell anymore.

The Soviets are out there.
- The Soviets.

And they're a threat to this
base. You saw them yourself!

| never said they were Soviets.

Just things.
- You said you saw red blinking lights.

There's no other rational
explanation for that than the Soviets.

Unless there wasn't
anything out there at all.

Dani. No.
- What are you trying to say, Dani?

What are you saying?
- Don't go yelling at me.

What are you trying to say? You
think I'm making this up, don't you?

That's what you
do, cut me down—-

DANI: Calm down.
- BALDWIN: Stand down.

You're trying to make me look like a fool!
- Stand down!

You're on her side? You're both against me!
- | said stand down.

You wanna hit me? Is
that what you wanna do?

Go on, give it your best shot.
You think you're man enough?

HE GRUNTS

Step back! Step back!
- GORDO GROANS

Everybody, just calm
down and step back!

GORDO BREATHES HEAVILY

SHE SIGHS

You're confined to this base

until further notice.

Confined to the base?

Confined?

HE CHUCKLES

Oh me, oh my.
What am | gonna do?

Heavens to Betsy.

I'm confined to the base.
- Jesús Christ. | don't need this bullshit.

I'm telling you, Ed. This is
starting to get out of hand.

Enough, Danielle.

Yes, sir.

I will just shut my mouth
like a good little girl

and let you handle all of this.

Thank you.

HE BREATHES HEAVILY

How to put this? Uh...

HE CHUCKLES

Well...

Agent Donahue is of the
opinion that Larry Wilson...

HE GULPS ...may
have certain tendencies

which could pose a security
risk to the programme.

He thinks Larry's gay.

Yes.

And now he has
voiced a theory that...

perhaps you

may have certain
tendencies as well.

That's absurd.

This is not a good time

for the administration to be
forced to deal with another scandal.

Another sex scanda——

Yeah, | understand that
Teddy's been a very bad boy.

It's not funny.

The attack on the president is a
debasement of the culture and the nation.

All the more reason
why a NASA astronaut's

private what-have-yous should
not be made public at this time.

I'm not gay.

But | can't control Gavin
Donahue or the Justice Department.

No.

But you could, um...

You and Larry both
could take a step...

a step which would make
all of these accusations

against the both of
you seem... ridiculous.

INDISTINCT CHATTER

BUZZ: | can assure you that we're doing
all we can to get the relief crew up there.

I'm sure you are, Buzz. —
GORDO: What's he saying?

You gotta watch the gears.
- Don't tell me what to do. | see it.

Flash light.

BUZZ: Our new
estimate rfor the launch...

DANI: Oh. OK.
- BUZZ: ...of Apollo 24 is December 9th.

GORDO: It was the
damn ants, wasn't it?

DANI: It wasn't the ants. It's the tape.
- Two more weeks.

SHE SIGHS. - Got it.

BOHICA.
- SHE SIGHS

BUZZ: But the good news is the unmanned
Titan launched perfectly this morning

and should be
there in five days.

And we have a little
surprise for you this time.

Love surprises. —
DANI: Needle-nose pliers.

OK.

Here we go.

BALDWIN: | don't suppose you're
sending us a new batch of videotapes?

BUZZ: Of what? Oh, no.

No, (Ej. Devedés)NASAs still having trouble
with the Hollywood studios.

They don't want people thinking they
can just record their shows at home.

It'd eat into their advertising
revenue if they skip the commercials.

But we did manage to include a whole
new plumbing assembly for the shower.

Great. I'm looking
forward to that. Thank you.

BUZZ: How's Gordo's cold?

HE INHALES SHARPLY
He's, uh, feeling better.

Should be back
to work real soon.

BUZZ: Glad to hear It.

1'll give you further updates on 24
as they be come available. Houston out.

Jamestown out.

Can it be saved?

SHE SIGHS

No. No! No, no, no!

HE SIGHS

What are we gonna do now?

TV AUDIENCE LAUGHS

BALDWIN: «I'd like to

My wife, Emily.

Emily is also the newest member of

«I feel you have lot
of hostility toward me».

ALL LAUGH ABRUPTLY

«Emily? Why would
you say that, Mr Carlin?».

«Because Emily, by
refusing to tell her story

is implying that her
fear is better than mine.

| don't like it, | feel threatened by it,
and | don't know how to deal with it».

ALL LAUGH ABRUPTLY

«Emily, do you have
hostility towards Mr Carlin?».

«No. | just didn't think anybody

ALL LAUGH ABRUPTLY

OK. Let's go again.
- Let's keep going. Keep going.

OK, OK, OK. SHE CLEARS THROAT

HE SIGHS DEEPLY

Well, this is an embarrassment
to your entire family.

Do you realise that?

Yes, sir.
- Speak up!

Yes, sir.

You're supposed to be the
man of the house while I'm away.

Supposed to help your mother with all
the new responsibilities she's taken on.

But, instead, you're running around,
acting like some kinda little punk?

And right before Thanksgiving.

I'm very disappointed
in you, Shane.

SHANE SIGHS

SHANE SOBS. - And now the tears.

SHANE SOBS. - You're...
11 years old, Shane.

Wh-- When are you gonna stop acting like
a little baby and start acting like a man?

| don't know.
- KAREN: Just stop.

Stop the crying. Cut it out.
- BALDWIN: | got work to do here.

| don't have time for your
little baby shenanigans.

'l handle it from here, Ed, OK?
Shane, say goodbye to your father.

Bye.

Goodbye, Shane.

BALDWIN: Houston, we're ascending
from the mining site with fresh samples.

CAPCOM: Copy that, Ed.
Hope Gordo feels better soon.

Bet you could use another
pair of hands processing the ice.

BALDWIN: We
surely could, Houston.

And I'm sure Gordo's dying
to get back to work as well.

CAPCOM: Copy that. Houston out.

DANI: Ed...

how long you gonna keep
Gordo under house arrest?

| think the flight surgeons are beginning
to get a little worried about his head cold.

BALDWIN: He's on the mend.

He was almost back to his normal
self the other day, goofing around

acting out that episode.

He just needs a break.

I'm getting a bad vibe
from him lately, like, uh...

like something just isn't
computing in his head anymore.

Look, Gordo's tough.

He'll be fine.

After | got shot down in Korea,
| had a few days back in Seoul

where the walls were
closing in on me too.

You got shot down?
- BALDWIN: Yeah.

Supporting a strike missión
just north of the 38th parallel.

There was another pilot that crash-landed,
and | was flying cover above him

when | got clipped
by antiaircraft fire.

Two of us spent a week evading the
enemy before | made it back to our lines.

DANI: Before you made it back?

He didn't make it.

SHE SIGHS

I'm sorry, Ed.
- BALDWIN: It was a long time ago.

But the point of the story...

is that when | got back to
Seoul, | was tightly wound.

Um, | even got short-tempered
with a couple of my superiors.

Short-tempered?
- | took a swing at a colon el.

BOTH CHUCKLE SOFTLY

They put me in a hotel room,
gave me a bottle of scotch and said

«Don't come back until
your head's straight».

HE GRUNTS

Locked myself in that room

resurfaced a few days later

right as rain.

Gordo needs a little time.

OK.

Well...

| used to think the same
thing about Clayton.

You know, that he just needed some time.
- Yeah.

But... SHE SIGHS

...now it's like he's a
different man altogether

a man | don't know anymore.

SHE INHALES DEEPLY

Oh, shit.

Oh, my God.

WEISNER: We shouldn't be talking
about this on an open channel, Commander.

Well, | agree with you, sir, but |
think the Soviets knew full well

we'd find their tracks
and report back to NASA.

I'll inform the White House, and
they'll summon the Soviet ambassador

and I'm sure that they will demand
some answers regarding this incident.

Copy that, sir. And how
do you want us to, uh...

MARKER SCRIBBLES -
...proceed here on the moon?

Continue your normal operations, Commander.
- MARKER SCRIBBLES

Do nothing to provoke an incident
with the Russian cosmonauts.

We will handle everything through
diplomatic channels from now on.

Aye, aye, sir.

INDISTINCT CHATTER

That's insane. | can't believe
he'd even suggest that to you.

Do you think Weisner knows?

He doesn't want to know.

HE SIGHS

He's hoping this whole
thing just goes away.

Teddy's little Palm Beach
fling has got them all squeamish

about anything to
do with sex right now.

Last thing they need
is a scandal about a...

dyke astronaut
and a fag engineer.

| told you before, |
don't like those terms.

This gets out, we're gonna
be called much worse.

Then we can't let it get out.

You're not seriously
considering this?

l... SHE SIGHS | don't know.

| think we have to put all
the options on the table.

HE SIGHS. - What?

There is a certain
simplicity to the idea.

It would redefine us
in the eyes of the worid.

Much harder for anyone to
question us if we've taken that step.

Right.

OK. I'm just gonna say this
once, and | want it on the record.

You do this, you-- you actually
go through with this... this...

this—— this thing that
| can't even say out loud

you do this...

then you and |, we're done.

Pam, I'm just considering all the options.
- No, this isn't an option.

This isn't an idea. This
isn't even a possibility.

Hey, it wouldn't mean anything.

It would to me.

It would mean everything.

| love you.

OK?
- SOFTLY: OK.

PAM SCOFFS There.
Now it's been said.

And | said it because it had to be
said, and | know you never would.

| don't know. |—-. - This...

This is too big.

What-- What you guys are talking
about doing, it—— it is... important.

It's deep.

| know it may not be cool
or hip to say that these days

but it is how | feel,
and | feel it in my bones.

So you do this...

we're done.

Ed.

Dani. Up and at 'em.

Come on, it's time. Let's go. It's time.
- DANI SIGHS

OK, Ed, this time, you're
gonna play Mr Carlin.

Dani, you're gonna play
all the women, as usual.

I'm gonna be Bob.

What? Gordo, what the hell are
you—-. - Let's go, let's go. Come on, Ed.

What the hell is...
- And...

«I'd like to introduce my second
surprise. This is my wife, Emily.

She's a new member to the
group, and she's also afraid of flying».

What the hell are you doing?
It's the middle of the night.

Mrs Bakerman has the next line.

Mrs Bakerman.
- DANI SIGHS

That's you.

Um...

«Oh, isn't that nice?».

«Emily, you wanna explain what—-
what first led to your fear of flying?».

BALDWIN: Gordo, quit this horsing
around. We got a busy day tomorrow.

Gordo.

Get up.

Get up.
- SHE SIGHS

I'll do it.

IN HIGH VOICE: «Oh, | didn't think
anyone would be interested in my story.

| just thought I'd sit
and listen tonight».

«I feel you have a lot of
hostility toward me». Small laugh.

«And why do you
say that, Mr Carlin?».

Uh»,Because Emily, by
refusing to tell her story

is implying that her
fear is better than mine.

| don't like it, | feel threatened by it,
and | don't know how to deal with it».

Medium laugh.
- Gordo, what the hell are you doing?

I'm doing the first episode.
«Fly the Unfriendly Skies».

OK? You're getting in the way.

«Emily, uh...

do you have
hostility to Mr Carlin?».

IN HIGH VOICE: «No. | just didn't think
anyone would be interested in my story.

| really just thought...»
- The hell are you doing? Gordo.

You're stepping on their joke!
You're stepping on the joke. Stop.

Uh, where was 1? Um...

Mr Carlin...

Um... — DANI SIGHS

«You know, | like
you for saying that».

IN HIGH VOICE: «Oh, thank you».

Ed, | think maybe you need to call Houston.
- GORDO: «L like you too».

«l don't believe you».

No. No.

Absolutely not.
- DANI SIGHS

But you're right. He's been
cooped up in here for too long.

He needs to get outside and clear his head.
- OK.

IN HIGH VOICE: «Right. Well, uh... |
was in college. It was just a little thing.

A bunch of us were
going to Ann Arbor to—-».

Gordo. Gordo.
- GORDO SIGHS

Hey.
- HmMmmMm?2?

Let's go for a walk.

Outside, just the two of us.

A walk?
- BALDWIN: Yeah.

Do a little apartment hunting.

GORDO BREATHES HEAVILY

And you can show me the great
unknown you're always talking about.

GORDO GRUNTS. - What do you say?

HE BREATHES HEAVILY Um...

Come on, bud. Come on, buddy.

Let's suit up.

It's a beautiful area.

We should take some pictures.

No.

I'll never do that.

That'd spoil it.

You know, reduce all this to
just some chemicals doing tricks

on a piece of paper.

No photo could ever
really... capture this.

| khnow.

HE INHALES DEEPLY

So, how you feeling?
HE EXHALES DEEPLY

OK.

A little better, | guess.

Yeah?
- HmMmm.

HE SIGHS Well, that's good.

You wanna...

explain to me what the hell
was going on back there?

| don't know.

| just...

| couldn't do it anymore.

Couldn't do what?
- Just stay in that room.

HE SIGHS

Same walls, same...
lights, same food.

Fucking hell, | hate that food.

HE EXHALES SHAKILY

| didn't sign up for this, Ed.

HE SCOFFS I'm a naval
aviator. Flying off carriers.

Man, | love a cat shot
off a carrier at night.

HE SNIFFS

| got into this to
push the envelope

and to fly the fastest, baddest,
hottest thing you could put a cockpit in.

Flying. HE CHUCKLES

HE SIGHS

Yeah.

We used to be on the
bleeding edge of things.

You know?

Go the highest.

Fly the fastest.

Pioneers.

That's what we were.

Davy Crockett, Daniel Boone.

You remember those shows?

BALDWIN: Mm-hmm.

Same guy played 'em
both. HE CHUCKLES

Same coonskin cap and
everything. HE LAUGHS

| never understood
that. HE CHUCKLES

Dani could probably explain it.

HE SIGHS Yeah.

Davy Crockett, Daniel Boone.

Pioneers.

Going out into the
wilderness and blazing a trail

to where no man has gone before.

That's why | like it out here.

No man's gone here.

No man.

Just me.

But that's not the job
anymore. Not really.

Now it's just homesteading.

Build a cabin, plough the field, put
up fences to keep out the neighbours.

| mean, look around you, Ed. We're
on the edge of the known universe.

The frontier starts right here.

A whole universe just waiting to be explored,
and what are we doing? Playing house.

That's not what | signed up for.
That's not what | signed up for at all.

I--— | get where
you're coming from.

| really do, but | don't think
those days are really behind us.

GORDO: Hell was that?
- This is the beginning.

HE GASPS

Hey, what—-. - | saw
one. Holy shit, | saw one.

What? You saw what?
- GORDO: It's an ant.

There's an ant in my suit.
- In your suit?

HE YELPS | can feel him.

Ah, he's crawling down the back of my neck.
- Hey. Gordo, calm down.

Calm down.
- They're all over me!

Ah! They're all over me!
- Gordo, calm down.

Ah! They're all-- Ah! Get it off!
- Calm down! Gordo, no!

Gotta get my helmet
off! Get it off! Ah!

Gordo. Gordo, calm down.
Calm down! — GORDO: Get it off!

GORDO GRUNTS -
BALDWIN: Calm down.

BOTH GRUNT

Get it off me, man! Get it off me!
- Gordo, no, no.

Gordo, look at me. Look at me. Hey, it's me.
- GORDO WHIMPERS

GORDO PANTS

They ain't there. Gordo,
everything's gonna be alright.

Just trust me.

GORDO PANTS

Calm down.

GORDO PANTS —
BALDWIN: It's alright.

Everything's gonna be OK.
- PANTING FADES

BALDWIN: It's alright.

GORDO SIGHS

I'm S (o) rry A m

HE SNIFFS | don't know
what happened out there.

It's OK.
- GORDO: Mm.

You're fine now.

What are you gonna do, skipper?

It's the middle of
the night in Houston.

And | don't want
to talk to Australia.

Wait till the morning...
put the call through.

DANI: What are
you gonna tell ‘em?

The truth.

We got a medical situation and
we got to power up the lifeboat.

Take Gordo home.
- Oh, I'll be OK.

BALDWIN: No, you won't.

And | should've seen
it a long time ago, but...

You tried to warn me,
Dani, but | didn't listen.

We gotta face it. You
gotta go home, Gordo.

Shit.

If we abandon this base

the Russians are gonna be all
over it before we even break orbit.

I'm not gonna abandon the base.

What do you mean?
- I'm sending you and Gordo home without me.

HE SIGHS I'm staying.

Alone?

HE SIGHS DEEPLY

I'm naming Dani commander
of the return missión.

SHE GASPS SOFTLY. - BALDWIN:
You'll fy second seat, Gordo.

You follow her orders.

Understood?
- GORDO: Understood.

But if we take the lifeboat,
you got no way home

until Apollo 24 gets its shit
together and bring the next crew.

Houston will never go for it.

They'll never le a ve an astronaut
marooned on the moon.

| understand all that, but
this is my command, and...

I'll decide what happens to it.

I'm not going to abandon this base or
our mining operations to the Russians.

They'd strip Jamestown of every piece of
technology they could get their hands on.

| will stay until properly
relieved by the crew of Apollo 24.

And that's my final decisión.

Too tired to argue anymore.

HE SIGHS

What's gonna happen to him?

Well, they're gonna send him to the shrinks.
- Yeah.

His career's over.
| can tell you that.

They'll never let him fly again.

You mean in space, right?

| mean in anything.

They'll yank his pilot ticket...

militar y and civilian.

HE SIGHS

That'll kill him.

Yeah. HE SIGHS DEEPLY

HEAVY THUD. - DANI SCREAMS

DANI SUCKS AIR

GORDO: What's going on? —
DANI: Need a little help here.

GORDO: What happened?

You OK?
- DANI BREATHES HEAVILY

DANI GROANS. - What happened?

| don't know. | was...

...trying to change the
battery, and then it...

SHE GASPS SHAKILY
...it fell on my arm.

Let me see. — DANI:
| think it's busted.

Let me see.
- Wait a minute, Gordo. Please, hold on.

Had to change a battery
in the middle of the night?

By yourself?
- Mm-hmm.

BALDWIN: Even on the
moon, those things weigh a ton.

SHE YELPS — Onh...
Hell's bells, Dani.

| think you're right.

| think that's busted.
- SHE EXHALES SHAKILY

GORDO: Let me go
find the medical kit.

SHE BREATHES HEAVILY

You just suddenly had to change
the battery? Couldn't wait till morning?

Yeah. That's just
exactly what happened.

SHE INHALES DEEPLY

So you need to call Houston

and let them know that you have an
astronaut who has had an accident and...

needs to go home.

You didn't have to do this.

SHE SIGHS

Clayton's lost, Ed.

And he's not coming back.

| know that. SHE INHALES DEEPLY

But if they ground
Gordo... SHE SIGHS

...he's not coming back either.

GORDO: Alright.

DANI EXHALES DEEPLY. - Let me
try and get this around your arm.

OK. Just... breathe.

SHE BREATHES HEAVILY

Just try to lift it up.
- SHE GROANS

There you go. Uh, there you go.

SHE BREATHES HEAVILY
- GORDO: MM. Mm-hmm.

We 've spoken to the Joint
Chiefs as well as the White House

and they all agree that to abandon
the Jamestown Base to the Soviets

would threaten the vital national
security interests of the United States.

So, they all support your
decisión to remain at Jamestown

until properly relieved, which
should be in two weeks' time.

WEISNER: Over my
objections, for the record.

WEBER: Which were
so noted in the record.

The president has also
decided to promote you

to the rank of captain
in the United States Navy.

Backdated to the
beginning of this missión

with all pay and benefits
retroactive to that time.

Congratulations, Captain.

Thank you, sir. I'm sure Karen
will appreciate the extra pay.

We're all good in here. Powered
up and ready to burn home.

BALDWIN: Copy that. HE SIGHS

| guess this it, huh?

GORDO SIGHS DEEPLY

Well, Godspeed and all that.

Yeah.

It won't be long.

We'll kick some ass back there,
get those clowns on 24 moving.

They'll probably be here in...

In about two weeks.

THEY CHUCKLE. - BOHICA.

HE CHUCKLES

BOHICA.
- Alright, | give up.

I've been pretending | knew
what that meant for months.

Enough already. What does BOHICA mean?
- Just an old navy saying.

«Bend over...».

«Here it comes again.”

SHE LAUGHS

BOHICA.
- BOHICA.

Well, OK...

Bye, Bob.

Bye, Bob.

Bye, Bob.

Setting up for the burn.
Everything's on track here, Houston.

CAPCOM: Roger that, Excalibur.

Hey, Dani?

Yeah, Gordo?

Thank you.

SHE SIGHS

Hi, Bob.

SHE SIGHS

| cannot believe
that you did this.

After everything that's going on.
- I'm sorry, OK?

Don't take that tone with me.

Your father is doing
one of the bravest things

any man has ever done.

He's alone on the moon.

And what are you
doing? Stealing?

It was just some baseball cards!
- Doesn't matter what it is.

It's still stealing.

You're lucky | know Mr Driscoll,
because if he had called the police

do you know what would've happened to you?
- Yeah.

Don't you «yeah» me.

Yes, ma'am.

You go to your room,
and you do your homework.

You're grounded
until after Christmas.

SHANE: But | have a basketball game.
- KAREN: Not anymore.

DOOR CLOSES

But Dad's always saying
| can't let the team down.

Dad's not here.

But | have to go! |
can't let the team down!

No, Shane, you're not going
to your basketball game.

That's enough! SHE SIGHS

This is a bunch of crap!

HE GASPS

You go to your room and you don't come
out until | get home from the PTA meeting.
