Previously on "The Astronaut Wives Club"...

What's going on in here?

I'm so sorry. They were just playing.

It's Ménière's. There's no cure.

I'm never going up again.

I'm really going to be able to hear the mission control

talk to my husband while he's in space?

Your son is fighting for his life.

You'd rather be here than be there for him?

[Applause]

We'd make a great presidential ticket.

Jo: One of your best friends just died.

If we give up on the moon,

then Gus will have died for nothing.

Robert F. Kennedy: 1968 is a year

of unprecedented turbulence,

danger, and questioning.

Uncertainty at home and a divisive war abroad

have led to a deep crisis of confidence...

Confidence in our leadership, in each other,

and our very self as a nation.

It is perhaps well to ask what kind of nation we are

and what direction we want to move in.

I was involved in many of the early decisions on Vietnam.

Can you see Rene?

And I've come here today to ask for your help...

Wait. I think that was the back of Annie's head.

...not for me, but your country

- and for the people of Vietnam. - [Car door closes]

The war must be ended.

What is he talking about? We can't leave Vietnam yet.

- [Applause] - [Sighs]

- Wally. - Hey, dad.

Marty. [Sighs]

It is good to be home.

[Kisses]

[Speaking indistinctly]

Is something wrong?

I thought you were happy

with how the capsule was coming along.

The capsule's ready to go. It's everything else.

Dunk's putting TV cameras on board

so we can wave from space.

And then they want these experiments

that are gonna pull our focus.

And what do you want?

I wanna get up, get down, and not kill anyone.

[Lowered voice] Not in front of the kids.

Jo, he's 18.

Not for a few months yet, and that's beside the point.

We need to send more troops.

I mean, this war is still winnable.

Right, dad?

Sure.

- Sure. - [Applause]

[Sighs]

This flight is it.

I'm quitting.

But what about the moon?

I'm gonna finish the mission Gus started,

then I'm announcing my retirement.

[Exhales] Wally...

...year,

but it's also a year of choice...

A year when we choose not simply who will lead us,

but where we wish to be led...

To the country we want for ourselves and our children.

Thank you.

[Applause]

[Crowd chanting indistinctly]

[Laughter]

You know, the campaign's been to six cities in three days.

Rene calls him "Bobby" now.

Everyone calls him "Bobby." [Laughter]

Stop telling me I'm crazy!

I'm not crazy!

[Lowered voice] Keep it down, please.

[Utensils clink] But you're never home.

Or in your motel room.

Walt and Wally like to joke around.

Then we have to work overtime.

What about the matchbook I found from the Beverly Hilton?

You're blaming that on your crew members, too?

[Clears throat] Is everything okay here?

Yes. We're... we're good.

Donn, can I talk to you for a second?

- Excuse me. - Sure.

♪

You need to deal with this before you go up next week.

- You got it? - Mm-hmm.

We'll be fine for the launch.

Right, sweetie?

Yeah. Of course.

[Indistinct conversations]

[Chanting] We want Bobby! We want Bobby! We want Bobby!

We want Bobby! We want Bobby! We want Bobby!

What is it with me and buttons?

It's not funny.

People getting so close and tugging at you.

I mean, everything that matters requires risk,

and I promise you, this matters.

Well, I know it does.

We want Bobby!

There. All done.

Go get 'em. They love you. [Laughs]

Ready?

We want Bobby! We want Bobby! We want Bobby!

Hello, everyone. Thank you so much for coming.

[Cheers and applause]

Thank you so much.

[Cheers and whistles]

Mayor Yorty has just sent me a message.

We've been here too long already.

[Laughter]

So my thanks to all of you, and on to Chicago,

and let's win there.

[Cheers and applause]

[Cheering continues]

Congratulations, Senator.

California's all yours.

Well, we're on our way now.

Thank you for your support.

Woman: Way to go, Bobby!

Thank you for coming.

- Well, he did it. - Good to see you, Jim.

L-let's go f-find John.

I've gotta go now. Thank you so much, everyone.

Man: Whoo!

Man: Let's go!

Hon, why are we even talking about my flight?

Wally and the guys are up first.

Well, Dunk told us that Apollo 8

will be the most dangerous mission yet.

He said the odds are 50/50.

Look, Frank, what does that even mean?

I think you know what that means.

Oh.

I guess I was hoping you'd say something else.

[Exhales] Could you...

Look, you ladies are the ones who demanded

to know the truth about these things.

What's also true is that I love you.

So we'll talk about everything when I get home, okay?

[Whispers] Okay.

I love you, too.

Okay.

Who's your guy? Nixon or Humphrey?

Whoever can make me the first man on the moon.

Well, you might wanna settle for second.

You haven't heard? They want a civilian.

With everything going on overseas,

they're worried about it looking like a military operation.

Good afternoon, Gordo.

Frank, is my husband in his office?

I believe he is, yes.

Great.

I'd check the door before you enter.

What's the temp today?

Sub-zero.

[Hums]

What? It's a joke.

It's not funny.

I brought you lunch.

Thought it might cheer you up.

Huh. It's gonna take more than a turkey sandwich,

but thank you.

Look, I know that running things with Deke

isn't enough for you.

But you have the bank.

That's going so well.

I really think it's another outlet for you.

We're finally sending men up again.

I wanna be one of them.

I wanna go to the moon.

Alan, you can't.

What if I can?

I've been reading about this new Ménière's surgery.

I'm going for tests.

Come with me.

[Sighs]

The press is gonna be all over Harriet

after the launch.

You mind giving her a little pep talk?

About what? Donn's the problem.

Look, I don't like the guy very much either,

but we're so close to putting Apollo 1 behind us

and getting this thing back on track.

That's what I want people talking about,

not the first... astro-divorce.

The women listen to you, Red.

You're good at keeping these marriages rolling.

You sure about that?

Personally, I'm one-for-two.

Oh.

You were young.

You didn't have the future of the space program

riding on ya.

[Chuckles] I may have a few helpful tricks

up my sleeve.

Oh. Really?

Mm-hmm.

For example...

If you only want your husband

to drive to the store and back...

[Unzips pants]

Never send him off with a full tank.

Okay.

Man: 20 months and several unmanned missions

after the Apollo 1 tragedy, we have liftoff.

Wally Schirra, Donn Eisele, and Walter Cunningham

are headed into space.

Apollo 7 is in the air.

The Apollo 7 mission now entering hour 4

of its 10-day mission

has been orbiting earth without trouble.

[Indistinct conversations]

How does it feel,

seeing Gus' flight finally go up?

I had some time. I had my trip.

Deke: Apollo 7, this is Capcom. Are you ready to go live?

I'm okay.

Wally: I can tell you at this point

the TV will be delayed without any further discussion

until after the rendezvous.

Deke: All you have to do is flip it on.

Wally: We don't have the equipment out.

We haven't eaten.

Someone's cranky.

I refuse to foul up our timelines this way...

He has a cold.

Look, it's his last mission.

He can say whatever he wants, so long as he gets home safe.

I just can't believe Wally's leaving the program

when they're so close to the moon.

- Three missions are enough for us. - [Silverware clatters]

Well, we've... we've all learned you... can't be

an astronaut f-forever.

Well, you can't rely on anything forever.

You know, maybe the campaign could still use your help.

Well, the campaign's over in less than a month,

and Nixon will take it, just you watch.

It's not the same without Bobby.

Well, why not restart your column?

It's had to go back to writing about the world

when for a minute, I was actually a part of shaping it.

Who needs a refill?

[Radio continues indistinctly]

Donn made it into space.

I've done my part.

Sweetie, you've got kids, a life with him.

Don't throw it away over cape cookies.

It's your marriage.

- It's not cookies with Donn. - Trudy, don't.

There's a woman. Her name is Susie.

All cookies are named Susie.

Donn and Susie are serious. She has a son.

Oh, my God.

Are you sure about that?

We went to the house. We met her.

And he made me feel like I was going crazy.

I'm getting a divorce.

Harriet, really think about this.

Trudy gave Gordo another chance.

Now look at them.

When I caught Gordo, he didn't lie.

Well, Rene and Scott...

They're living separately, but they're still married.

Yeah, Rene and Scott treat each other with respect.

We agreed to be wives,

for better or for worse...

At least until the end of the program.

The program?

Divorce that jerk.

The whole world is changing. Why can't we?

[Sighs]

Man: It's the third day of the Apollo 7 mission,

and for the first time in history,

we have live footage from inside the capsule.

After 11 days, Apollo 7 touches down

just 1.9 miles off its target.

Wally Schirra ends his NASA Career

with another flawless mission,

and the space program is back in business.

We're off to the moon.

Civilian life looks good on you.

Dad gotcha.

Every bit as boring as I imagined, and I love it.

Don't you think I'm a little old for this?

You are never too old for a good old "Gotcha."

[Chuckles] "Jolly Wally."

[Lowered voice] It's good to have him back.

Mm-hmm.

So you've thought about what's next?

I've been recruited by regency investors in Denver.

Gonna fly out next week, check it out.

Denver?

Relax. It's just an interview,

which is why we weren't gonna tell anyone yet.

- Oh, right. I forgot that part. - Mm-hmm.

[Clacking]

[Keys jingle]

It's a car. Now it's not a corvette,

but it will get you to college in the fall.

Well, actually, I'm... Not thinking about college.

I'm gonna enlist.

Enlist?

Marty, you are not going to war.

It's my duty.

Dad went to Korea.

And what about grandpa?

Admiral Holloway had his own battleship.

This is a different kind of war,

and not in a good way.

I made a cake.

Shaped like a rocket.

Good job, Betty.

For the first time,

man will be traveling 239,000 miles to the moon.

Our craft will leave the earth's orbit

and enter the moon's.

The plan is to get a few miles of the lunar surface,

circle 10 times, then come home.

But if I understand this correctly,

there's a good chance

you could miss the moon completely

and drift off into space?

Well, there are always gonna be risks involved

in any space mission.

Mrs. Borman, how do you feel about those odds?

Well...

Well, there's... certainly...

Uh...

I have complete faith in my entire crew

and the thousands of people working tirelessly

on this mission.

With the power of those Saturn rockets,

the goodwill of the American people,

and the love of this woman right here,

we can't fail.

Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Borman.

And we cut.

Thank you, sir.

[Indistinct conversations]

Let me see this.

[Laughs] Excuse me.

I'm gonna get in there with Frank.

[Blows kiss] [Blows kiss]

[Indistinct conversations]

[Clinking]

- [Bottle cap squeaks] - That bad?

Frank had to step in.

[Exhales deeply] I can't sleep or eat.

Now apparently I can't talk either.

Have you told Frank how you feel?

How can I?

He shouldn't have to look after me.

It's my job to be there for him.

You know, maybe you should go see Dr. Berry.

Sometimes he helps the wives with... stress management.

Pills?

What? No. I would never.

No, Frank doesn't want me taking anything.

He says if I can't sleep,

I should just walk around outside until I get tired.

[Exhales deeply] And I do get tired.

So tired.

But... every time I shut my eyes,

all I see is him, trapped in that capsule.

You know, drifting off into space

or circling around the moon... forever.

Oh, God.

[Exhales deeply]

The surgery's been performed a handful of times

with some success.

I think Mr. Shepard's a great candidate.

But I wanna be honest with you about the risks.

What are they?

Well, his symptoms could worsen.

There's also the possibility

that he may permanently lose his hearing.

And of course, any time you're operating on the brain,

there's a chance of stroke, infection, brain damage,

even death.

Legally, a wife can't just up and leave her husband.

You will have to charge him with cruelty.

That means that you will have to convince the judge

of adultery, abandonment, and/or abuse.

We can prove all three.

Emotional abuse counts, right?

You will need indisputable evidence,

meaning physical documentation and testimonies

that not only prove Donn's guilt

but that you are not responsible for his indiscretions.

That's just the divorce.

Child support is something else entirely.

You're supposed to be her lawyer, not his.

I just want you to know what you'll be taking on.

It won't be easy.

Thank you, Mr. Tucker. I understand.

And we'll get back to you with everything you need.

[Sighs]

I told the doctor to book the surgery.

Of course you did.

I've done everything you've asked of me.

I'm home for dinner every night.

I spend time with you and the girls.

You are a good husband and father.

I'm an astronaut who can't drive.

And you're willing to risk our life together to change...

Why isn't that enough?

You can't be an astronaut forever.

At some point, it has to end.

And if the life we've made isn't enough for you,

You've never really told me about him...

Why you got married, why you got divorced,

why you keep that damn trunk with his name on it.

Well, you never asked.

I never have to with you, Red.

If there's something you want me to know,

you say it, and then some.

I don't know exactly.

Regular reasons, I guess.

I didn't want you to think of me with another man,

That trunks reminds me to stand up for myself,

Man: Apollo 8, this is Houston.

Be prepared for signal loss.

Frank: Thanks a lot, Houston.

I guess we'll be seeing you when we...

[Static]

Rene: ...To not know what's going on up there...

I can't take this.

So our thoughts and prayers for the next 30 minutes

are with the astronauts who are up there

with no contact with the world.

What do we do?

The usual.

We wait.

W-w-what's she doing?

She's writing Frank's eulogy.

We should be hearing from the Apollo 8 crew

at any moment now.

Man: Apollo 8, this is Houston. Do you read?

[Static]

Apollo 8, do you read?

Frank: Houston, this is Apollo 8.

Please be informed, there is a Santa Claus.

[Women gasp]

Oh!

[Women crying]

He's okay. He's okay.

They have... We have made it back from the dark side.

Now approaching a lunar sunrise,

and, uh, for all the people

back on earth, the crew of Apollo 8

has a message that we would like to send to you.

In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth,

and the earth was without form and void,

and darkness was upon the face of the deep,

and God said, "let there be light,"

and there was light.

And God saw the light, and it was good.

And God divided the light from the darkness.

And God called the light "day"

and the darkness, he called "night."

And the evening and the morning were the first day.
