Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:23,490 --> 00:00:26,198
You can say that again.
2
00:00:26,293 --> 00:00:28,796
They're not geese.
3
00:00:28,896 --> 00:00:33,470
Their speed's about...
5,000 miles an hour.
4
00:00:41,174 --> 00:00:44,451
Unidentified objects
reported from St. Matthews station.
5
00:00:44,545 --> 00:00:47,082
Speed, 5,000 miles per hour.
6
00:00:47,180 --> 00:00:50,593
Course, 1-7-0.
7
00:00:50,684 --> 00:00:54,291
Banks Island Station
confirms unidentified objects.
8
00:01:09,369 --> 00:01:11,940
This is the president.
9
00:01:12,039 --> 00:01:14,076
Yes.
10
00:01:19,913 --> 00:01:22,120
My verification code-
11
00:01:22,215 --> 00:01:25,594
4-2-0-0-4-7.
12
00:01:25,686 --> 00:01:28,326
Verifyyourself.
13
00:01:28,422 --> 00:01:30,993
All right, General, go ahead.
14
00:01:35,095 --> 00:01:38,201
How far are they from the DEW line?
15
00:01:38,298 --> 00:01:40,505
I see.
16
00:01:40,601 --> 00:01:42,842
And confirmation is absolute?
17
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:50,889
I order all systems
to stand by for war alert.
18
00:01:50,978 --> 00:01:55,120
If they cross the DEW line,
destroy them...
19
00:01:55,215 --> 00:01:57,286
and their source.
20
00:01:58,452 --> 00:02:00,591
And may God be with us.
21
00:02:10,230 --> 00:02:13,575
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea.
22
00:02:18,105 --> 00:02:20,779
Starring Richard Basehart...
23
00:02:23,143 --> 00:02:25,714
David Hedison.
24
00:02:33,253 --> 00:02:36,325
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea.
25
00:03:07,187 --> 00:03:09,997
0045 seconds.
26
00:03:16,396 --> 00:03:18,899
Down scope.
27
00:03:18,999 --> 00:03:21,980
0035 seconds.
28
00:03:27,174 --> 00:03:29,176
0025 seconds.
29
00:03:36,850 --> 00:03:38,852
0075 seconds.
30
00:03:41,855 --> 00:03:45,962
005 seconds. 004 seconds.
003 seconds.
31
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:48,733
002 seconds.
007 second.
32
00:03:48,829 --> 00:03:51,070
000.
33
00:03:51,164 --> 00:03:53,405
Latitude zero degrees,
zero minutes, zero seconds.
34
00:03:53,500 --> 00:03:56,037
We are now crossing the equator.
35
00:03:58,071 --> 00:04:01,644
Now hear this.
All hands. All pollywogs...
36
00:04:01,742 --> 00:04:04,086
anyone who has not previously
crossed the equator...
37
00:04:04,177 --> 00:04:06,316
and been welcomed into
King Neptune's majestic domain...
38
00:04:06,413 --> 00:04:09,257
will report immediately
to the crew's quarters...
39
00:04:09,349 --> 00:04:12,558
for the I 973 initiation ceremonies.
40
00:04:32,038 --> 00:04:34,644
Well, Lee, shall we prepare
to pay our respects to King Neptune?
41
00:04:34,741 --> 00:04:37,017
I was up all night
polishing my sword, Admiral.
42
00:04:48,722 --> 00:04:51,828
One! Two!
43
00:04:51,925 --> 00:04:54,428
Three!
44
00:05:01,735 --> 00:05:04,579
Look at Clark!
45
00:05:07,474 --> 00:05:10,421
- That'; cola'.
- Yes, but it's good for you.
46
00:05:10,510 --> 00:05:12,512
Aw, come on, fellas.
Have a-
47
00:05:12,612 --> 00:05:14,819
Oh, no, Patterson.
No feathers. Come on.
48
00:05:14,915 --> 00:05:17,657
Patterson, no-
No. Patterson, no-
49
00:05:17,751 --> 00:05:19,924
feathers.
50
00:05:24,257 --> 00:05:26,430
Hello, sir.
51
00:05:35,669 --> 00:05:40,049
Aye, I've never seen a mangier
lot of pollywogs in all me days.
52
00:05:40,140 --> 00:05:42,245
Have you, me damn' queen?
53
00:05:42,342 --> 00:05:46,290
No! And they're gonna
frighten the royal baby.
54
00:05:53,620 --> 00:05:58,296
You scurvy dare to make
the royal baby cry?
55
00:05:58,391 --> 00:06:01,804
- Admiral, what's the meaning of this?
-Sire-
56
00:06:01,895 --> 00:06:04,034
Don't "sire" me.
57
00:06:04,130 --> 00:06:08,272
This lot is an affront to my kingdom.
58
00:06:08,368 --> 00:06:11,975
You, pollywog, approach the throne.
59
00:06:12,072 --> 00:06:15,246
On your belly, pollywog!
60
00:06:15,342 --> 00:06:18,084
Has he no respect
for the royal court?
61
00:06:18,178 --> 00:06:20,624
He is but ignorant, sire...
62
00:06:20,714 --> 00:06:25,891
though he is a lieutenant commander
of the United States Navy.
63
00:06:25,986 --> 00:06:27,829
Aye, then he's not one of your crew.
64
00:06:27,921 --> 00:06:32,461
No, he's only temporarily.
I must confess...
65
00:06:32,559 --> 00:06:36,564
that ifCommander Corbett offends
Your Majesty and the royal family...
66
00:06:36,663 --> 00:06:39,906
-I am to blame for it.
- Uh,you, Admiral?
67
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,846
Had I but given him the marks
he so richly deserved...
68
00:06:43,937 --> 00:06:46,577
in marine biology and chemistry-
69
00:06:49,776 --> 00:06:55,454
when I had the enormous misfortune
to have him in my classes at Annapolis-
70
00:06:55,548 --> 00:06:58,688
the lieutenant commander would
not now be aboard the Seaview...
71
00:06:58,785 --> 00:07:01,789
to evaluate our fitness
as a mission carrier.
72
00:07:01,888 --> 00:07:06,359
Nor would he have
frightened the royal baby.
73
00:07:14,701 --> 00:07:17,511
Man all stations.
On the double! Move!
74
00:07:51,604 --> 00:07:54,551
Sloppy. Slow and sloppy.
75
00:07:56,409 --> 00:07:59,083
I'd hate to see the fitness rating
we'll get for this one.
76
00:07:59,179 --> 00:08:03,924
Now for the rest of this exercise,
I want speed and precision.
77
00:08:06,186 --> 00:08:08,962
I don't think it is an exercise, Lee.
78
00:08:22,369 --> 00:08:25,407
He's every bit as surprised by it
as we are.
79
00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:28,748
- Easy.
- Ah, it's a short.
80
00:08:32,212 --> 00:08:36,217
W5 m)! eyes! My eyes!
81
00:08:36,316 --> 00:08:39,126
Sick bay.
Doc, get up here fast.
82
00:08:39,219 --> 00:08:43,190
- Let me see, Kowalski.
- I-l can't see, Admiral.
83
00:08:43,289 --> 00:08:46,361
M)' EYES! My eyes!
84
00:08:46,459 --> 00:08:49,372
- Who's there?
- Relax, Kowalski. It's the doc.
85
00:08:50,630 --> 00:08:52,610
Am I blind, Doc?
86
00:08:52,699 --> 00:08:55,236
Doc;
87
00:08:55,335 --> 00:08:58,475
Blind? An old girl-watcher
like you, Kowalski.
88
00:08:58,571 --> 00:09:00,642
Come on. Easy.
89
00:09:11,017 --> 00:09:15,625
The glass exploded right in his eyes.
I wish we could get him to a specialist.
90
00:09:15,722 --> 00:09:18,464
Well, unfortunately
we have more urgent business.
91
00:09:19,526 --> 00:09:21,631
“Stand by.“
92
00:09:24,898 --> 00:09:26,969
What does he mean stand by?
93
00:09:28,735 --> 00:09:31,238
This is no exercise.
Look at our missile officer.
94
00:09:31,337 --> 00:09:35,979
- Hekscared
- Why shouldn't he be? So am I.
95
00:09:36,076 --> 00:09:38,522
You don't think there's
actually gonna be a war?
96
00:09:41,114 --> 00:09:43,924
Well, let's hope it's just
a plane off course...
97
00:09:44,017 --> 00:09:46,588
or maybe a flight
of geese over the DEW line.
98
00:09:46,686 --> 00:09:49,530
We don't have to start worrying,
really worrying...
99
00:09:49,622 --> 00:09:51,602
until this goes on.
100
00:09:55,028 --> 00:09:58,271
Then it's in the hands of one man-
the president.
101
00:09:58,364 --> 00:10:01,038
That's all right with me.
That's right where it should be.
102
00:10:01,134 --> 00:10:05,378
He's the only man that can open
the fail-safe, so a missile can be fired.
103
00:10:08,408 --> 00:10:12,550
An unpickable lock
on the mightiest arsenal ever created.
104
00:10:12,645 --> 00:10:14,647
Exactly.
105
00:10:26,759 --> 00:10:29,797
Rig for war alert.
All ahead flank.
106
00:10:29,896 --> 00:10:32,843
Come to course 2-7-0.
107
00:10:32,932 --> 00:10:35,469
Take her down to 2,000 feet.
108
00:10:35,568 --> 00:10:39,516
Sparks, maintain radio silence.
109
00:10:39,606 --> 00:10:42,086
Fail-safe officers...
110
00:10:42,175 --> 00:10:44,416
man your units.
111
00:11:07,433 --> 00:11:10,573
Fail-safe officers, report.
112
00:11:10,670 --> 00:11:12,650
Admiral?
113
00:11:16,009 --> 00:11:18,011
Ready, Captain.
114
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,056
- Mr. Morton?
- Ready, Captain.
115
00:11:23,149 --> 00:11:25,288
Commander Corbett?
116
00:11:28,988 --> 00:11:31,025
Commander Corbett!
117
00:11:33,693 --> 00:11:35,934
Commander Corbett!
118
00:11:38,665 --> 00:11:40,667
Corbett!
119
00:11:44,537 --> 00:11:46,539
Corbett!
120
00:11:50,176 --> 00:11:52,281
Ready, Captain.
121
00:11:54,247 --> 00:11:56,989
Unlock fail-safe units.
122
00:12:18,104 --> 00:12:21,483
Com mander Corbett,
unlock your fai I-safe.
123
00:12:23,576 --> 00:12:25,817
Corbett, unlock your fai I-safe!
124
00:12:25,912 --> 00:12:28,256
Corbett, report!
125
00:12:28,348 --> 00:12:30,487
What's wrong, Corbett?
126
00:12:30,583 --> 00:12:33,223
Corbett!
127
00:12:36,055 --> 00:12:38,228
Bill.
128
00:12:44,130 --> 00:12:47,077
Bill.
129
00:12:48,968 --> 00:12:51,209
This isn't an exercise, Admiral.
130
00:12:52,639 --> 00:12:54,676
It's real.
131
00:12:57,243 --> 00:13:00,588
I cannot destroy the world.
132
00:13:03,149 --> 00:13:05,322
I can't.
133
00:13:05,418 --> 00:13:07,625
It's not you.
134
00:13:08,788 --> 00:13:12,634
It's not?
Then who is it?
135
00:13:15,161 --> 00:13:17,732
It's me.
136
00:13:21,668 --> 00:13:23,670
No.
137
00:13:23,770 --> 00:13:26,216
No!
138
00:14:25,331 --> 00:14:28,039
Fifteen minutes
to launch coordinates, Admiral.
139
00:14:37,844 --> 00:14:39,824
What happened to Corbett?
140
00:14:43,716 --> 00:14:47,095
He couldn't activate his fail-safe unit.
141
00:14:47,186 --> 00:14:50,190
He just couldn't do it.
142
00:14:56,662 --> 00:14:59,541
Every soldier who ever
went to war knows that moment.
143
00:15:02,001 --> 00:15:04,572
It's one thing to be
a crack shot in the rifle range.
144
00:15:04,670 --> 00:15:07,776
It's another thing to pull
the trigger when there's a man-
145
00:15:07,874 --> 00:15:10,480
a real man, a human being-
in your sights.
146
00:15:10,576 --> 00:15:13,022
When the chips were down,
they pulled the trigger, didn't they?
147
00:15:13,112 --> 00:15:15,251
Most of them.
148
00:15:15,348 --> 00:15:19,262
- Some of them couldn't.
- Corbett is not a coward.
149
00:15:19,352 --> 00:15:24,131
He just started to wrestle
with his conscience at the wrong time.
150
00:15:24,223 --> 00:15:28,000
He should have done that
before he'd taken his oath ofduty.
151
00:15:28,094 --> 00:15:32,668
- Admiral-
- Yes, Lee?
152
00:15:32,765 --> 00:15:38,579
No one, none of us, knows how we'll act
when we have to pull that trigger.
153
00:15:41,707 --> 00:15:44,278
Give him another chance.
154
00:15:46,579 --> 00:15:48,718
Assuming we have another chance.
155
00:15:50,483 --> 00:15:53,430
I'll have to think about it, Lee.
156
00:16:09,302 --> 00:16:11,976
We're 11 minutes from
launch coordinates, Lee.
157
00:16:21,681 --> 00:16:26,323
It's unthinkable, Admiral.
lt- It can't be happening.
158
00:16:27,587 --> 00:16:30,500
It may not be.
159
00:16:30,590 --> 00:16:35,505
We won't know until we cross the
fail-safe line then send up the antenna.
160
00:16:35,595 --> 00:16:39,566
If the antenna doesn't
receive an abort order...
161
00:16:39,665 --> 00:16:42,077
it's happening.
162
00:16:45,171 --> 00:16:49,586
Sure we got all these
bombs and missiles and stuff.
163
00:16:49,675 --> 00:16:52,519
But so have they.
164
00:16:54,213 --> 00:16:56,989
I mean, the way I figure,
it's a standoff.
165
00:16:58,551 --> 00:17:02,260
I put a loaded pistol
against your head...
166
00:17:02,355 --> 00:17:04,926
you got one against mine-
167
00:17:05,024 --> 00:17:07,095
who's gonna pull the trigger?
168
00:17:10,363 --> 00:17:12,434
- You know somethin', Patterson?
- What?
169
00:17:14,734 --> 00:17:18,147
- I don't much like lookin' like this
when it happens.
- I know what you mean.
170
00:17:18,237 --> 00:17:20,444
- You do?
- Sure.
171
00:17:20,540 --> 00:17:23,612
It's like when I was a kid.
172
00:17:23,709 --> 00:17:25,711
My mom always used to say...
173
00:17:25,811 --> 00:17:27,882
“Don't go out when you're dirty.
Always look right.
174
00:17:27,980 --> 00:17:29,960
“You might get into an accident.
175
00:17:30,049 --> 00:17:32,461
And what will the ambulance guy think
ifyou're dirty?“
176
00:17:32,552 --> 00:17:34,793
Yeah, that's it.
177
00:17:37,189 --> 00:17:39,465
Yeah, well, don't worry
how you look, Clark.
178
00:17:42,028 --> 00:17:46,170
Nobody's gonna see us again.
Not ever.
179
00:17:58,010 --> 00:18:01,355
Uh, Captain, some of us
were wondering, sir, whether-
180
00:18:01,447 --> 00:18:04,826
- whether there was any news from home?
- No, nothing, Clark.
181
00:18:04,917 --> 00:18:07,363
- Captain-
- Yes?
182
00:18:07,453 --> 00:18:09,626
You would tell us
if you heard anything?
183
00:18:09,722 --> 00:18:12,669
Now, look, l-l'mjust
as anxious to hear as you are.
184
00:18:12,758 --> 00:18:15,204
- Yes, sir.
-Clark.
185
00:18:15,294 --> 00:18:18,673
- Yes, sir?
- You have a family?
186
00:18:18,764 --> 00:18:20,801
Admiral, everybody's got a family.
187
00:18:20,900 --> 00:18:24,677
I got a wife,
a couple of kids...
188
00:18:24,770 --> 00:18:28,809
my mother, my father,
couple of brothers, couple ofsisters.
189
00:18:28,908 --> 00:18:32,321
Boy, have I got a family.
190
00:18:32,411 --> 00:18:34,948
I just wish I knew how they are.
That's all.
191
00:18:35,047 --> 00:18:38,119
Well, I should think they're
wondering about you too, Clark.
192
00:18:38,217 --> 00:18:42,222
Yeah, sir.
I'll bet they are.
193
00:18:46,993 --> 00:18:49,030
Eight minutes to launch coordinates.
194
00:18:49,128 --> 00:18:51,540
We're in enemy waters now, Captain.
195
00:18:51,631 --> 00:18:54,407
- Sonar, keep your ears open.
- Yes, sir.
196
00:19:07,446 --> 00:19:09,687
Can you see anything, Kowalski?
197
00:19:09,782 --> 00:19:11,921
Anything at all?
198
00:19:14,153 --> 00:19:17,327
Ah, what's the difference now?
199
00:19:17,423 --> 00:19:20,666
I got maybe an hour,
hour and a half...
200
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,001
then boom.
201
00:19:23,095 --> 00:19:26,599
So what's the difference?
202
00:19:45,217 --> 00:19:48,790
The next hour and a halfare critical
to whether you'll ever see again or not...
203
00:19:48,888 --> 00:19:52,028
that's the difference.
204
00:19:52,124 --> 00:19:54,502
Assuming of course
there is no boom.
205
00:19:55,895 --> 00:19:57,966
Now, keep your eyes open.
206
00:20:19,418 --> 00:20:23,389
Captain, destroyers at bearing 1-7...
207
00:20:23,489 --> 00:20:27,096
speed 4O knots,
range 5,000 yards.
208
00:20:27,193 --> 00:20:29,833
Keep on 'em.
209
00:20:29,929 --> 00:20:32,637
All hands, rig for depth charges.
210
00:20:32,732 --> 00:20:35,645
Repeat, rig for depth charges.
211
00:20:47,279 --> 00:20:49,418
It doesn't look any better.
212
00:20:52,351 --> 00:20:54,331
You all right?
213
00:20:54,420 --> 00:20:56,331
Yes, sir.
214
00:20:56,422 --> 00:20:58,424
I can't understand it.
215
00:20:58,524 --> 00:21:02,597
You're navy, Annapolis.
This is what you've been trained for.
216
00:21:02,695 --> 00:21:04,834
You've gone through this
a hundred times.
217
00:21:04,930 --> 00:21:07,433
Practice runs.
218
00:21:07,533 --> 00:21:09,774
Games, like when we were kids.
219
00:21:09,869 --> 00:21:12,850
This is no game, Admiral.
220
00:21:12,938 --> 00:21:14,940
This is real.
221
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,511
I know.
The missile officer knows.
222
00:21:19,612 --> 00:21:23,059
There was no practice alert
scheduled for this run.
223
00:21:24,884 --> 00:21:27,990
This is doomsday, Admiral.
224
00:21:28,087 --> 00:21:30,294
Doomsday.
225
00:21:30,389 --> 00:21:33,302
Ifit is, we didn't start it.
226
00:21:33,392 --> 00:21:37,169
What difference is it
who started it?
227
00:21:37,263 --> 00:21:39,402
It's one thing to carry a big stick.
228
00:21:39,498 --> 00:21:41,910
It's another to bash
someone's head in with it.
229
00:21:43,402 --> 00:21:46,713
I just couldn't do it.
230
00:21:46,806 --> 00:21:49,548
But you could.
231
00:21:49,642 --> 00:21:52,714
Couldn'tyou, Admiral?
232
00:21:52,812 --> 00:21:56,851
You think because I could do
what I had to do, I don't feel?
233
00:21:56,949 --> 00:21:58,951
I don't feel for the millions-
234
00:22:01,353 --> 00:22:03,731
Our job is to provide
the bone and muscle...
235
00:22:03,823 --> 00:22:06,394
of our country's deterrent power.
236
00:22:06,492 --> 00:22:10,167
If we fail in that,
if we freeze in the clutch...
237
00:22:10,262 --> 00:22:12,674
then our country's defenseless.
238
00:22:12,765 --> 00:22:15,268
You failed your country once before.
239
00:22:15,367 --> 00:22:17,438
Don't ever fail her again.
240
00:22:36,455 --> 00:22:38,696
Launch coordinates, Captain.
241
00:22:46,665 --> 00:22:50,704
Steady as she goes.
All engines stop.
242
00:22:55,975 --> 00:22:58,956
Can you think ofany reason
to delay firing, Admiral?
243
00:23:01,347 --> 00:23:05,193
No reason that has
any military relevance.
244
00:23:09,555 --> 00:23:14,129
Missile Room, release fail-safe antenna.
245
00:23:28,674 --> 00:23:30,745
AHSWGFS, HHSWGFS.
246
00:23:30,843 --> 00:23:33,653
What did you say?
247
00:23:35,414 --> 00:23:38,918
I've spent all my life
trying to find answers.
248
00:23:40,719 --> 00:23:43,359
But there's no answer to this.
249
00:23:43,455 --> 00:23:46,197
Admiral-
250
00:23:46,292 --> 00:23:48,431
Yes, Lee.
251
00:23:50,296 --> 00:23:52,276
Nothing.
252
00:23:55,100 --> 00:23:57,876
There's nothing to say.
253
00:23:57,970 --> 00:24:00,450
Destroyers 2,700 yards.
254
00:24:03,442 --> 00:24:06,889
Mr. Morton, come to course 0-9-0.
255
00:24:06,979 --> 00:24:10,051
Come to course 0-9-0.
256
00:24:10,149 --> 00:24:12,356
Antenna buoy at surface.
257
00:24:23,896 --> 00:24:26,035
No abort signal, Captain.
258
00:24:34,773 --> 00:24:37,913
Start firing procedure, Lee.
259
00:25:56,822 --> 00:26:00,463
All hands, this is the captain.
260
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:04,735
The attack's been canceled.
We're no longer on war alert.
261
00:26:10,536 --> 00:26:15,645
- Repeat-
- Come on, Doc. Whatcha waiting for?
262
00:26:15,741 --> 00:26:19,382
All right, you guys.
Get to work and clean these babies out.
263
00:26:30,522 --> 00:26:32,934
Hey, Captain.
264
00:26:33,025 --> 00:26:35,699
Captain!
265
00:26:40,632 --> 00:26:42,634
All right men, quiet.
266
00:26:42,734 --> 00:26:45,374
Quiet down!
267
00:26:47,272 --> 00:26:49,616
Enemy destroyers closing fast.
268
00:26:51,376 --> 00:26:54,050
We're in theirwaters,
and they don't know why.
269
00:26:54,146 --> 00:26:56,148
They won't waste time asking questions.
270
00:26:56,248 --> 00:26:59,127
- Let's go up and give 'em the answers.
- Mr. Morton, prepare to surface.
271
00:26:59,218 --> 00:27:01,289
- Sparks. Radio we're surfacing.
- Prepare-
272
00:27:01,386 --> 00:27:05,129
Captain, this is Missile Control.
Number Four won't deactivate.
273
00:27:05,224 --> 00:27:07,295
The fuse is set
for detonation at zero feet.
274
00:27:07,392 --> 00:27:09,872
Whatever you do, don't surface!
275
00:27:16,835 --> 00:27:19,042
If we can't talk, let's run.
Let's get out of here.
276
00:27:21,140 --> 00:27:25,885
Maneuvering, come to course
1-4-0. All ahead flank.
277
00:27:39,925 --> 00:27:43,463
- Doc-
- Easy. Easy. Easy, Kowalski.
278
00:27:48,967 --> 00:27:53,177
Corbett, you making any headway
disarming Number Four missile?
279
00:27:56,441 --> 00:28:00,184
Negative. Fuse is still jammed.
It will blow up at surface.
280
00:28:21,700 --> 00:28:24,112
We got the whole fleet
after us, Captain.
281
00:28:26,071 --> 00:28:28,881
Engine Room, can you
give me any more speed?
282
00:28:28,974 --> 00:28:31,079
She's breakin' records now, Skipper.
283
00:28:31,176 --> 00:28:34,316
- How much room beneath us?
- We're on the bottom now.
284
00:28:34,413 --> 00:28:39,829
They've got us in a circle. We can't
fight back, and we can't outrun them.
285
00:29:12,384 --> 00:29:14,421
Got a bad one, Captain.
286
00:29:14,519 --> 00:29:19,628
Can control the water, but the main vents
in the ballast tanks are sprung.
287
00:29:19,725 --> 00:29:21,932
The trim's gonna be a bit sloppy.
288
00:29:22,027 --> 00:29:24,064
That's the least of our worries, Chief.
289
00:29:25,264 --> 00:29:27,505
Any progress, Corbett?
290
00:29:29,401 --> 00:29:32,848
No, sir. There's no way
to deactivate the fuse-
291
00:29:34,773 --> 00:29:38,186
Our only hope is to find
a lonely place, go deep, and fire it.
292
00:29:38,277 --> 00:29:40,689
- The fail-safe. lfwe-
- No, sir.
293
00:29:40,779 --> 00:29:43,953
Only the president can reopen it.
294
00:29:46,151 --> 00:29:49,030
The first thing we've got to do
is lose those destroyers.
295
00:29:53,892 --> 00:29:57,567
Lee,jam their sonar
so they'll have to rely on hydrophones.
296
00:30:31,363 --> 00:30:33,639
Start up the mini-sub.
Full speed.
297
00:30:38,103 --> 00:30:40,083
Engine Room.
298
00:30:40,172 --> 00:30:44,018
Chief, I want you to reduce engine speed
gradually till I tell you to hold.
299
00:30:59,658 --> 00:31:03,003
A little more, Chief. It's gotta sound
like Seaview on their hydrophones.
300
00:31:07,165 --> 00:31:09,805
Okay, Chief, hold there.
And stay on the line.
301
00:31:09,901 --> 00:31:12,472
- Get that thing launched.
Keep the motors running.
- Yes, sir.
302
00:31:12,571 --> 00:31:14,573
Prepare to launch mini-sub.
303
00:31:14,673 --> 00:31:18,177
Let's hope theystart
following it instead of us.
304
00:31:20,379 --> 00:31:23,223
- Okay, launch.
- Launch!
305
00:31:37,863 --> 00:31:39,865
Okay, Chief, stop all engines.
306
00:31:44,603 --> 00:31:47,607
Lee, we'vejust launched
the mini-sub as a decoy.
307
00:31:47,706 --> 00:31:50,744
Keep a fix on those destroyers.
308
00:32:01,052 --> 00:32:03,931
Captain, I've picked up
another sub on the hydrophone.
309
00:32:08,393 --> 00:32:10,839
Don't worry.
it's one of ours.
310
00:32:27,145 --> 00:32:29,557
It worked.
They're following the mini-sub.
311
00:32:29,648 --> 00:32:31,685
Chip, let's get underway.
312
00:32:31,783 --> 00:32:37,790
Full ahead. Come to course 1-4-0.
All stations, report damage.
313
00:32:40,725 --> 00:32:42,705
Any luck?
314
00:32:42,794 --> 00:32:46,173
I can set it to detonate
wherever you want beneath the surface.
315
00:32:46,264 --> 00:32:48,904
There's no chance of our surfacing
until we get rid of this baby.
316
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,378
What will our firing depth
have to be?
317
00:32:54,406 --> 00:32:56,682
About 4,500 feet for a surface blast.
318
00:32:56,775 --> 00:33:01,383
No surface blast.
We detonate at 1,000 feet below surface.
319
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,154
But Why?
320
00:33:04,249 --> 00:33:06,320
To detonate
at 1,000 feet below the surface...
321
00:33:06,418 --> 00:33:11,333
we have to fire at... 4,700 feet.
322
00:33:11,423 --> 00:33:13,733
Can Seaview go that deep?
323
00:33:15,193 --> 00:33:18,936
- It's just possible.
- Possible?
324
00:33:19,030 --> 00:33:22,341
You mean you'd risk every man aboard
to conceal a nuclear accident...
325
00:33:22,434 --> 00:33:25,711
to prevent the world
from knowing that fail-safe is fallible?
326
00:33:25,804 --> 00:33:28,011
No, Commander.
327
00:33:28,106 --> 00:33:32,020
Nor will I risk the lives of this crew
to honor the Test Ban Treaty...
328
00:33:32,110 --> 00:33:34,750
which we violate if
we detonate at surface.
329
00:33:34,846 --> 00:33:39,761
But I will not pollute
the atmosphere with our mistake.
330
00:33:39,851 --> 00:33:41,853
I will not poison the air, the earth.
331
00:33:41,953 --> 00:33:44,763
Better risk the lives of this crew
than generations to come.
332
00:33:44,856 --> 00:33:48,360
But this morning, you didn't
hesitate to push the button.
333
00:33:48,460 --> 00:33:54,240
Because long ago, under conditions less
nerve-racking than we faced this morning...
334
00:33:54,332 --> 00:33:57,108
strategists and statesmen
formulated a plan.
335
00:33:57,202 --> 00:34:01,617
A plan which you,
as a military man, have sworn to follow.
336
00:34:01,706 --> 00:34:04,084
lfplans made during periods ofcalm...
337
00:34:04,175 --> 00:34:07,588
are not followed, to the letter,
in times of stress...
338
00:34:07,679 --> 00:34:09,750
we can only face chaos.
339
00:34:09,848 --> 00:34:12,385
Our survival as a nation
and as individuals...
340
00:34:12,484 --> 00:34:15,863
requires we rely upon reason
and not emotions.
341
00:34:17,689 --> 00:34:20,602
Our security, Admiral,
also requires an informed public.
342
00:34:20,692 --> 00:34:25,732
The world should learn, as I did this morning,
what doomsday would really mean...
343
00:34:25,830 --> 00:34:27,810
what a nuclear accident means.
344
00:34:30,902 --> 00:34:34,179
Then maybe we'll throw away these
monstrous toys before they destroy us.
345
00:34:34,272 --> 00:34:38,516
If you want to sound the trumpet,
Commander, do it.
346
00:34:38,610 --> 00:34:42,649
But not in that uniform.
And not aboard Seaview.
347
00:34:42,747 --> 00:34:46,559
We detonate at minus 1,000 feet.
348
00:34:51,122 --> 00:34:53,261
Yes, sir.
349
00:35:07,973 --> 00:35:10,715
I see no other solution, Mr. President.
350
00:35:10,809 --> 00:35:13,449
Now let me get this clear, Nelson.
351
00:35:13,545 --> 00:35:18,119
You're asking me to open the fail-safe system
long enough to let you fire one missile...
352
00:35:18,216 --> 00:35:21,925
which will explode 1,000 feet
beneath the surface of the sea?
353
00:35:24,656 --> 00:35:30,231
You realize I can't open your fail-safe
without activating the entire system.
354
00:35:31,896 --> 00:35:35,139
During the 3O seconds
that you require...
355
00:35:35,233 --> 00:35:38,339
any general or colonel or admiral...
356
00:35:38,436 --> 00:35:41,713
could conceivably
fire the weapons in his command.
357
00:35:41,806 --> 00:35:47,984
Actually, we've cut
our required time to five seconds.
358
00:35:48,079 --> 00:35:50,889
The exact moment when
the fail-safe system will be opened...
359
00:35:50,982 --> 00:35:53,087
will be known only to you and me.
360
00:35:53,184 --> 00:35:55,494
What about the Pentagon?
Won't they know?
361
00:35:55,587 --> 00:35:57,828
No, Mr. President.
All we will know is...
362
00:35:57,922 --> 00:36:01,495
the spot which we have selected
as free ofshipping for the firing.
363
00:36:01,593 --> 00:36:05,302
Seaview should reach
the firing site in 24 hours.
364
00:36:07,499 --> 00:36:12,847
Nelson, you know what
I'm risking to save your ship?
365
00:36:14,873 --> 00:36:16,875
Yes, sir.
366
00:36:16,975 --> 00:36:20,980
Get in touch with me when
you reach your destination.
367
00:36:56,247 --> 00:36:58,318
Hold her steady, Lee.
368
00:36:58,416 --> 00:37:01,420
Real steady, Admiral.
369
00:37:01,519 --> 00:37:04,398
Steady, Lee.
370
00:37:26,845 --> 00:37:28,825
That does it.
371
00:37:32,183 --> 00:37:34,493
- Will he see?
- Heshou/a'.
372
00:37:34,586 --> 00:37:37,533
There's no corneal damage.
373
00:37:37,622 --> 00:37:40,535
He'll be up girl-watching
in another week or two.
374
00:37:43,461 --> 00:37:46,169
Get him back as soon as you can.
We need him.
375
00:37:56,107 --> 00:37:59,281
- What's the matter?
- Our main ballast vents were damaged.
376
00:37:59,377 --> 00:38:02,256
- It's hard to keep trim.
- What's our depth?
377
00:38:04,215 --> 00:38:06,991
- Two hundred feet.
- Take her up to periscope depth.
378
00:38:07,085 --> 00:38:10,498
I want to make sure the area's clear
before we get rid of that missile.
379
00:38:10,588 --> 00:38:11,622
Mr. Morton, come to periscope depth.
380
00:38:11,623 --> 00:38:12,567
Mr. Morton, come to periscope depth.
381
00:38:12,657 --> 00:38:14,694
Periscope depth, aye, sir.
382
00:38:14,793 --> 00:38:16,704
Take her up to 9-0 feet.
383
00:38:16,795 --> 00:38:20,072
And carefully. That missile's
still set for surface detonation.
384
00:38:20,165 --> 00:38:23,078
If we broach-
385
00:38:34,512 --> 00:38:36,992
We're at periscope depth, Admiral.
386
00:38:37,081 --> 00:38:39,652
Steady. Up scope.
387
00:38:46,191 --> 00:38:48,171
Steady.
388
00:38:57,202 --> 00:38:59,580
Hold her steady!
389
00:39:03,107 --> 00:39:05,644
- Radar, anything in the air?
-All clear, Admiral.
390
00:39:09,848 --> 00:39:13,955
Down scope.
Take her back down.
391
00:39:14,052 --> 00:39:16,054
Lee, I'm still worried about that trim.
392
00:39:16,154 --> 00:39:17,963
So am I.
393
00:39:18,056 --> 00:39:20,332
Let's go down.
394
00:39:23,294 --> 00:39:25,296
Sparks, make that call for me.
395
00:39:25,396 --> 00:39:28,775
- Pipe it through the scrambler. I'll be in my cabin.
-Yes, sir. Right away.
396
00:39:50,355 --> 00:39:52,835
What about it, Sparks?
397
00:39:52,924 --> 00:39:54,904
Good.
398
00:39:58,062 --> 00:40:00,804
Yes, Mr. President.
Nelson here.
399
00:40:00,899 --> 00:40:05,075
I assume you've reached
your destination, Admiral?
400
00:40:05,169 --> 00:40:08,013
Good. You're ready to fire?
401
00:40:08,106 --> 00:40:12,782
We are... five minutes from firing, sir.
402
00:40:12,877 --> 00:40:15,517
That is, if! permit it?
403
00:40:17,448 --> 00:40:19,450
Of course, sir.
404
00:40:19,550 --> 00:40:22,656
I've given this entire fail-safe business
a great deal of thought...
405
00:40:22,754 --> 00:40:25,200
in the past 24 hours.
406
00:40:25,290 --> 00:40:28,271
I'm worried about the human factor.
407
00:40:28,359 --> 00:40:32,865
Yesterday, the Russians launched
25 missiles simultaneously.
408
00:40:32,964 --> 00:40:37,470
They carried nothing more dangerous
than communications satellites.
409
00:40:37,568 --> 00:40:41,607
But they neglected to notify us-
410
00:40:41,706 --> 00:40:45,654
a human error that almost
caused us to go to war.
411
00:40:45,743 --> 00:40:51,284
- Yes, sir.
- In releasing your fail-safe, Nelson...
412
00:40:51,382 --> 00:40:54,693
I'm leaving you
no room for human error.
413
00:40:54,786 --> 00:40:56,891
That's the way it must be.
414
00:40:56,988 --> 00:40:59,366
There can be no mistakes.
415
00:41:01,392 --> 00:41:05,534
-l understand, sir.
- Submerge t0 your firing depth.
416
00:41:07,732 --> 00:41:11,145
I shall open the system in precisely...
417
00:41:11,235 --> 00:41:14,079
five minutes for five seconds.
418
00:41:16,741 --> 00:41:19,051
Good luck to you and your men.
419
00:41:41,866 --> 00:41:44,005
Minus 1,000 feet.
420
00:41:44,102 --> 00:41:46,104
Yes, sir.
421
00:42:33,751 --> 00:42:37,324
Ten, nine, eight, seven...
422
00:42:37,422 --> 00:42:40,301
six, five, four...
423
00:42:40,391 --> 00:42:42,769
three, two, one.
424
00:42:42,860 --> 00:42:45,306
System open.
Unlock units.
425
00:43:04,782 --> 00:43:07,763
Did you catch it, Corbett?
426
00:43:07,852 --> 00:43:10,389
Missile under manual control, Admiral.
427
00:43:11,956 --> 00:43:14,994
Lee, take her down to 4,700 feet.
428
00:43:17,462 --> 00:43:19,601
Take her to 4,700 feet.
429
00:43:20,965 --> 00:43:23,707
Dive to 4-7-0-0 feet.
430
00:43:49,460 --> 00:43:52,066
She's still keeping the water out.
431
00:44:19,257 --> 00:44:21,828
Ready, Corbett?
432
00:44:21,926 --> 00:44:24,270
Ready, sir.
433
00:44:31,035 --> 00:44:32,946
Fire!
434
00:44:36,207 --> 00:44:38,619
- Damage Control, report.
- Missile Room-
435
00:44:38,709 --> 00:44:40,882
Main vents jammed. Air bubble in ballast.
436
00:44:40,978 --> 00:44:43,151
- We're ballooning.
- Comet“!
437
00:44:47,952 --> 00:44:49,932
Missile Room.
438
00:44:50,021 --> 00:44:53,559
- Did you fire?
- Did/ft have time.
439
00:44:53,658 --> 00:44:58,403
We're at, uh, 4,400 feet.
Is it safe to fire now?
440
00:44:58,496 --> 00:45:00,476
Negative.
441
00:45:00,565 --> 00:45:02,943
We'll be up to detonation depth
in three minutes.
442
00:45:03,034 --> 00:45:07,540
- Damage Control, any luck?
- She's jammed tight.
443
00:45:22,653 --> 00:45:25,395
- What's your plan?
- Plan? We've had it.
444
00:45:25,489 --> 00:45:28,959
There's got to be a way. We're not going
to have a nuclear accident, Corbett.
445
00:45:29,060 --> 00:45:31,062
Ca n-
446
00:45:31,162 --> 00:45:34,268
Can we roll her past
9O degrees and fire downward?
447
00:45:34,365 --> 00:45:36,811
No. The guidance system
will prevent firing...
448
00:45:36,901 --> 00:45:40,348
unless the attitude
of the submarine is normal.
449
00:45:40,438 --> 00:45:43,317
Can we defuse her
magnetically or electronically?
450
00:45:43,407 --> 00:45:46,684
If we could,
then so could an enemy.
451
00:45:46,777 --> 00:45:48,916
- The fuel, c-can we-
- That's it!
452
00:45:49,013 --> 00:45:51,391
What's our present depth?
453
00:45:53,618 --> 00:45:56,792
1,800 feet.
454
00:45:56,887 --> 00:46:00,061
I think we can.
Besides, what have we got to lose?
455
00:46:04,095 --> 00:46:06,336
If I canjust-
456
00:46:06,430 --> 00:46:09,274
What are you doing?
457
00:46:09,367 --> 00:46:11,677
Bleeding out the expellant gas
but leaving just enough...
458
00:46:11,769 --> 00:46:13,874
so the missile will blast
clear of the sub...
459
00:46:13,971 --> 00:46:16,042
then fizzle out
and sink to the bottom.
460
00:46:16,140 --> 00:46:19,815
I hope.
What's our depth?
461
00:46:19,910 --> 00:46:21,890
1,400 feet.
462
00:46:28,486 --> 00:46:31,262
- Depth?
- 1,200 feet.
463
00:46:40,965 --> 00:46:43,741
Corbett!
464
00:46:43,834 --> 00:46:46,337
- Corbett, what happened?
- I disobeyed orders.
465
00:46:46,437 --> 00:46:49,543
I didn't change it.
I left it set for a surface blast.
466
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:51,916
- On whose authority?
- On my authority!
467
00:46:52,009 --> 00:46:55,252
As a man.
As a human being.
468
00:46:55,346 --> 00:46:58,850
I've just discovered I have a commitment
that takes priority over this uniform.
469
00:46:58,949 --> 00:47:01,486
People have a right to know
what almost happened.
470
00:47:13,798 --> 00:47:15,778
Pray.
471
00:47:36,454 --> 00:47:38,798
Missile slowing.
472
00:47:42,326 --> 00:47:44,772
It stopped at 200 feet
beneath the surface.
473
00:47:54,638 --> 00:47:56,709
It's falling to the bottom.
474
00:48:25,936 --> 00:48:29,941
820 feet.
That's cutting it close.
475
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,520
Too close, Chip.
Too close.
476
00:48:32,610 --> 00:48:34,817
Much too close.
477
00:48:38,916 --> 00:48:41,760
Bubble on artificial horizon.
478
00:48:49,393 --> 00:48:52,966
- Sighting on polestar.
- Polestar.
479
00:48:53,063 --> 00:48:55,737
Time 2:04.
480
00:49:00,104 --> 00:49:02,106
Mark.
481
00:49:02,206 --> 00:49:05,187
Angle- 18 degrees,
22 minutes, three seconds.
482
00:49:10,915 --> 00:49:12,952
Verify sighting.
483
00:49:16,554 --> 00:49:18,830
Mark.
484
00:49:18,923 --> 00:49:22,700
1-8, 2-2, 0-3.
Sighting verified as accurate, Captain.
485
00:49:22,793 --> 00:49:24,795
Thank you, Mr. Morton.
486
00:49:24,895 --> 00:49:27,967
Confirm our position
with inertial navigation and log it.
487
00:49:28,065 --> 00:49:30,067
Aye, aye, sir.
488
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:46,656
- You wanna talk about it?
- What's there to talk about?
489
00:49:46,750 --> 00:49:50,357
Well, you gave him a second chance.
490
00:49:50,454 --> 00:49:52,456
He blew it.
491
00:49:53,924 --> 00:49:58,168
And now I have to
order a court-martial.
492
00:49:58,262 --> 00:50:00,299
I'll have to testify against him.
493
00:50:01,665 --> 00:50:03,804
Then he'll be dishonorably discharged.
494
00:50:06,537 --> 00:50:09,416
You know, it's ironic, Lee.
495
00:50:09,507 --> 00:50:11,885
Ifhe'd obeyed orders,
we'd all be dead now.
496
00:50:11,976 --> 00:50:16,618
By disobeying orders,
he inadvertently saved our lives...
497
00:50:16,714 --> 00:50:19,456
but he wrecked his career.
498
00:50:19,550 --> 00:50:23,464
- It could even have been worse.
- Yeah.
499
00:50:23,554 --> 00:50:26,797
Yeah, it could really have been doomsday.
