1
00:03:40,142 --> 00:03:41,476
Come in.
2
00:03:43,104 --> 00:03:44,521
Good morning, Mr President.
3
00:03:44,647 --> 00:03:46,356
Good morning, Mr Willard.
4
00:03:46,482 --> 00:03:49,359
General O'Rourke and Professor Foster
are downstairs.
5
00:03:49,485 --> 00:03:51,194
Send them up.
6
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,072
Can't afford to keep important people
like that waiting, can we?
7
00:03:54,866 --> 00:03:56,199
No, sir.
8
00:04:00,622 --> 00:04:01,955
Shit.
9
00:04:11,257 --> 00:04:12,924
Want me to pull over, Captain?
10
00:04:13,050 --> 00:04:14,551
Yeah, I guess you better.
11
00:04:27,565 --> 00:04:30,692
Take it easy, mister. Are you OK?
12
00:04:30,818 --> 00:04:34,112
I think... I think I broke my collarbone.
13
00:04:35,782 --> 00:04:37,490
You'd better come with us.
14
00:04:39,035 --> 00:04:40,786
Out. Move it.
15
00:04:45,374 --> 00:04:47,000
Nobody told you to shoot him?
16
00:04:49,003 --> 00:04:50,504
I don't like sergeants.
17
00:04:59,013 --> 00:05:03,767
'Conservative groups are pushing for the
governor's ratification of this bill.
18
00:05:03,893 --> 00:05:07,563
'Latest update on the prison breakout:
A Montana state highway patrol... '
19
00:05:07,689 --> 00:05:10,481
Gentlemen, you care about the news?
20
00:05:11,150 --> 00:05:16,237
- Never between wars. Get some music.
- Right, sir.
21
00:05:24,455 --> 00:05:26,707
I've come to ask a personal favour.
22
00:05:29,418 --> 00:05:30,752
David...
23
00:05:32,547 --> 00:05:37,342
...Zabat was an exchange student
who lived in my home for three years.
24
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,180
He loves and is loved
by my daughter.
25
00:05:50,272 --> 00:05:51,940
Jesus Christ.
26
00:05:53,192 --> 00:05:56,987
If he were my son,
I could not love him more.
27
00:05:59,323 --> 00:06:04,244
I've come here to beg for his life.
28
00:06:07,039 --> 00:06:11,502
Zabat gunned down
the head of a country.
29
00:06:13,337 --> 00:06:15,421
And, sure, he killed a dictator.
30
00:06:17,299 --> 00:06:20,844
How the hell can I put charity above
the codes of all civilised nations?
31
00:06:20,970 --> 00:06:23,597
You're asking me to send a killer
back to law school.
32
00:06:27,602 --> 00:06:30,771
If I grant Zabat sanctuary...
33
00:06:34,108 --> 00:06:38,028
...I give tacit approval to every dissident
with a cause and a gun.
34
00:06:43,117 --> 00:06:44,450
Well...
35
00:06:46,078 --> 00:06:48,454
Thank you for your time,
Mr President.
36
00:06:51,584 --> 00:06:53,209
Wait a second. I...
37
00:06:59,341 --> 00:07:01,718
- Tell your daughter that...
- David...
38
00:07:09,435 --> 00:07:12,604
- Please... tell your daughter...
- David.
39
00:07:13,230 --> 00:07:16,274
I'll tell my daughter
I did the best I could,
40
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:20,403
and I'll tell myself,
though you were not a brilliant student,
41
00:07:20,530 --> 00:07:22,781
you are an honest man.
42
00:07:36,087 --> 00:07:37,629
Professor.
43
00:07:40,257 --> 00:07:43,552
By the look on his face,
you must have played all-day blinkin'.
44
00:07:46,598 --> 00:07:50,767
Obviously, you didn't tell him that
we had to trade that kid for our air bases.
45
00:07:51,936 --> 00:07:53,353
Three points.
46
00:07:55,523 --> 00:07:58,441
May I remind you
that today's Sunday?
47
00:07:58,568 --> 00:08:00,110
Screw church.
48
00:08:01,738 --> 00:08:04,114
Rams over the Vikings.
49
00:08:13,165 --> 00:08:17,168
- Turn on the heat.
- Put on the coffee, Mabel.
50
00:08:17,294 --> 00:08:18,962
Africa, you never get cold?
51
00:08:19,088 --> 00:08:21,381
No, just cool... fool.
52
00:08:24,260 --> 00:08:26,637
I'm bearing a left about 60 yards.
53
00:08:26,763 --> 00:08:28,096
Got it.
54
00:08:28,222 --> 00:08:30,390
And we have to be finished
by eight o'clock.
55
00:08:52,454 --> 00:08:55,331
Kincaid, Roger F, Captain.
56
00:08:55,457 --> 00:08:59,753
(Officer 2)
Social security number: 076498765.
57
00:08:59,879 --> 00:09:02,047
Witkin, Harry O, First Lieutenant.
58
00:09:02,173 --> 00:09:06,426
Social security number: 046543976.
59
00:09:06,553 --> 00:09:07,928
Check.
60
00:09:25,988 --> 00:09:28,574
Ten minutes late.
Not bad for a new crew.
61
00:09:28,700 --> 00:09:31,910
Hey, Charlie... do me a favour.
62
00:09:32,036 --> 00:09:33,745
Don't big-deal it. I'm hungry.
63
00:09:33,871 --> 00:09:36,623
They get the whole lead, right?
64
00:10:03,150 --> 00:10:04,693
Geez, the place looks deserted.
65
00:10:04,819 --> 00:10:06,152
Never mind that, Augie.
66
00:10:06,278 --> 00:10:08,572
Concentrate on
that social security number.
67
00:10:08,698 --> 00:10:10,031
You, too, Hoxey.
68
00:10:13,828 --> 00:10:15,871
Kincaid, Roger F, Captain.
69
00:10:17,957 --> 00:10:22,544
Social security number: 076498765.
70
00:10:23,337 --> 00:10:25,380
Witkin, Harry O, First Lieutenant.
71
00:10:26,298 --> 00:10:33,805
Social security number: 046543979.
72
00:10:33,931 --> 00:10:36,266
Barker, Alan. A2.
73
00:10:36,392 --> 00:10:38,727
Social security number...
74
00:10:42,815 --> 00:10:46,943
...119590073.
75
00:10:48,237 --> 00:10:49,571
Rams.
76
00:10:50,573 --> 00:10:51,907
Vikings.
77
00:11:17,266 --> 00:11:22,103
Yes, sir.
78
00:11:32,740 --> 00:11:34,658
The damn thing won't start.
79
00:11:35,743 --> 00:11:37,578
Would you take the wheel, sir?
80
00:11:50,466 --> 00:11:51,800
Hit it, sir.
81
00:11:55,972 --> 00:11:59,516
Shit. The motor pool pricks
beat their meat all day.
82
00:12:01,018 --> 00:12:02,936
We'll have to push it in, sir.
83
00:12:09,401 --> 00:12:11,570
Remember to watch the cameras.
84
00:12:12,446 --> 00:12:14,364
You men, give us a hand.
85
00:12:15,157 --> 00:12:16,533
Push in unison.
86
00:12:17,952 --> 00:12:19,703
Count off.
87
00:12:27,795 --> 00:12:29,963
Mendes, I think, sir.
88
00:12:30,089 --> 00:12:32,924
Come on, you guys, push.
89
00:12:33,050 --> 00:12:36,720
Eh, we're on gravel, fellas.
Use those muscles.
90
00:12:39,223 --> 00:12:41,349
Come on. Together, now, push.
91
00:12:42,434 --> 00:12:44,561
We're trying, sir.
92
00:12:45,354 --> 00:12:46,980
Come on, push.
93
00:12:47,815 --> 00:12:50,025
We don't have your weight, sir.
94
00:13:01,871 --> 00:13:04,080
Come on, come on.
Let's go. Hurry up.
95
00:13:16,135 --> 00:13:19,137
Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
96
00:13:21,974 --> 00:13:24,601
Yes, sir. I sent it over a week ago.
97
00:13:27,104 --> 00:13:28,438
Yes, sir.
98
00:13:29,524 --> 00:13:32,609
In triplicate, yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
99
00:13:33,903 --> 00:13:35,426
I'll ask him when he comes in, sir.
100
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,618
- Don't!
- Yes, sir.
101
00:13:56,593 --> 00:13:58,093
Who the hell are you guys?
102
00:13:59,470 --> 00:14:01,555
Where's that sergeant?
103
00:14:01,681 --> 00:14:04,975
What a cheap joint.
I've seen better crappers.
104
00:14:20,992 --> 00:14:23,535
Son of a bitch!
What the hell you do that for?
105
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,037
I chose the wrong man for the job.
106
00:14:32,211 --> 00:14:35,506
What's going on? Man, we got trouble.
107
00:14:36,298 --> 00:14:38,216
They're cooks.
Lock 'em up down below.
108
00:14:38,342 --> 00:14:40,260
Get back to the biscuits.
109
00:14:45,182 --> 00:14:48,184
- Security here.
- 'Anything wrong with that car? '
110
00:14:48,310 --> 00:14:53,690
No, sir. Replacement missile combat
crew. 962B. Reporting for duty, sir.
111
00:14:54,984 --> 00:14:58,486
'Affirmative, Security. Put Captain
Kincaid on the box for challenge.'
112
00:14:58,613 --> 00:15:00,196
Right away, sir.
113
00:15:13,460 --> 00:15:15,086
Captain Roger F Kincaid.
114
00:15:15,212 --> 00:15:17,923
'Captain Kincaid,
what is the password, please? '
115
00:15:18,049 --> 00:15:20,258
- Romeo.
- 'Second word.'
116
00:15:20,384 --> 00:15:22,260
- And.
- 'Third word? '
117
00:15:26,558 --> 00:15:27,891
Third word?
118
00:15:28,017 --> 00:15:30,852
That prick, Kincaid,
must've held out on us.
119
00:15:32,689 --> 00:15:34,064
There is no third word.
120
00:15:34,190 --> 00:15:36,066
'Repeat. Third word, please.'
121
00:15:36,818 --> 00:15:41,446
There's...
There's no third word, sir.
122
00:15:41,573 --> 00:15:43,699
'Repeat. Third word, please.'
123
00:15:45,451 --> 00:15:47,035
No third word.
124
00:15:47,161 --> 00:15:48,620
'I challenge you.'
125
00:15:51,833 --> 00:15:54,125
- 'Well? '
- I challenge you.
126
00:15:56,629 --> 00:16:00,966
'You are correct, Captain. No third word.
Permission to come down.'
127
00:16:01,092 --> 00:16:02,968
We're on our way down, sir.
128
00:16:06,764 --> 00:16:09,641
Lock him up down below with the others,
and make it snappy.
129
00:16:10,476 --> 00:16:12,185
We've only got about 15 minutes.
130
00:16:23,823 --> 00:16:25,156
Let's go. Let's go.
131
00:16:29,411 --> 00:16:30,829
He's got brass balls.
132
00:16:31,623 --> 00:16:33,414
He's got a brass skull, too.
133
00:16:33,541 --> 00:16:36,001
Hoxey's the only one
who could open that safe, dummy.
134
00:17:03,112 --> 00:17:05,155
Who dreams up all this code stuff?
135
00:17:05,281 --> 00:17:08,491
Some one-star asshole
with nothing better to do.
136
00:17:08,618 --> 00:17:11,244
Eh, look. Is there gonna be
any more of that code crap?
137
00:17:11,829 --> 00:17:14,080
Not before the eight o'clock challenge.
138
00:17:14,206 --> 00:17:18,001
By that time, we'll be isolated
and sitting in the seat.
139
00:17:19,671 --> 00:17:21,254
Or dead.
140
00:17:32,767 --> 00:17:34,518
Looks like the Holland Tunnel.
141
00:17:58,876 --> 00:18:02,128
- Willie, come here.
- Man, I told you not to call me Willie!
142
00:18:18,145 --> 00:18:22,357
- Like Star Trek all over again.
- Uncle Louis ain't seen nothing like this.
143
00:18:25,236 --> 00:18:28,530
Garvas, Powell, come on.
You're not on vacation.
144
00:18:28,656 --> 00:18:30,448
This isn't Disneyland.
145
00:18:49,969 --> 00:18:53,722
Kincaid and Witkin,
ready to enter launch control centre.
146
00:19:01,564 --> 00:19:03,732
Remember, move fast.
147
00:19:31,678 --> 00:19:33,011
Hiya!
148
00:19:41,646 --> 00:19:43,021
Larry.
149
00:19:47,484 --> 00:19:49,986
Drag him into that dormitory,
and lock the door.
150
00:19:50,112 --> 00:19:51,697
And pick up their weapons.
151
00:20:54,301 --> 00:20:57,303
This board controls nine Titan missiles.
152
00:20:58,723 --> 00:21:02,308
But the moment we prepare the launch,
four boards at four different sites,
153
00:21:02,434 --> 00:21:04,978
all around us,
will light up like Christmas trees.
154
00:21:05,104 --> 00:21:09,274
- What the hell for?
- To keep lunatics starting World War III.
155
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,442
- Give me that toolkit.
- What toolkit?
156
00:21:11,569 --> 00:21:13,654
- Under the table.
- Get to the punchline!
157
00:21:13,780 --> 00:21:15,697
We isolate this board.
158
00:21:15,823 --> 00:21:17,866
We cut off all inhibitors and booby traps.
159
00:21:19,118 --> 00:21:20,619
Otherwise we threaten nobody.
160
00:21:20,745 --> 00:21:22,996
So we disconnect them. What's the big deal?
161
00:21:24,248 --> 00:21:29,169
Big deal? The big deal is one mistake,
and we really will be dead.
162
00:21:39,388 --> 00:21:42,599
'Dr Robert Pryor,
Dr Robert Pryor.
163
00:21:42,725 --> 00:21:45,268
'Please report to third-floor OR.'
164
00:21:47,479 --> 00:21:50,857
All right. Easy, you guys. Easy. Gently.
He's lost a lot of blood.
165
00:21:50,983 --> 00:21:55,529
Now, this green tube
contains a chemical called sarin.
166
00:21:55,655 --> 00:21:57,989
And we're going to remove it.
167
00:21:58,115 --> 00:22:00,241
And we have to be very careful,
168
00:22:00,367 --> 00:22:03,870
because the ends are extremely thin,
and they'll rupture if it's tilted.
169
00:22:05,081 --> 00:22:06,414
So?
170
00:22:08,042 --> 00:22:09,417
The result will be terminal.
171
00:22:11,003 --> 00:22:12,963
You mean that green shit's gonna kill us?
172
00:22:13,089 --> 00:22:16,758
That green shit,
as you so colourfully put it,
173
00:22:16,884 --> 00:22:19,385
produces a deadly vapour
when exposed to oxygen.
174
00:22:19,512 --> 00:22:23,389
You mean we broke out of death row
to end up in a gas chamber, right?
175
00:22:23,516 --> 00:22:26,226
Not if we keep it absolutely horizontal.
176
00:22:26,769 --> 00:22:30,063
I ain't messin' with no poison gas.
177
00:22:30,189 --> 00:22:32,190
You didn't tell us nothing about that!
178
00:22:35,653 --> 00:22:39,239
No way! You just count me out, please!
179
00:22:39,991 --> 00:22:41,324
Where's he going?
180
00:22:42,076 --> 00:22:43,619
Nowhere. Come here, Augie.
181
00:22:49,834 --> 00:22:52,168
Eh, how do you get out
of this goddamn coffin?
182
00:22:52,294 --> 00:22:54,963
Nobody gets out till thisjob is done.
183
00:22:55,089 --> 00:22:57,340
Now, back here.
We've wasted enough time.
184
00:22:57,466 --> 00:23:00,218
Hey, listen, General,
I ain't in your fucking army!
185
00:23:00,344 --> 00:23:02,929
I earned my dishonourable discharge!
186
00:23:03,055 --> 00:23:04,723
Get me an Allen wrench.
187
00:23:04,849 --> 00:23:06,767
- What size?
- Eight inch.
188
00:23:14,651 --> 00:23:16,693
Jive-ass punkie.
189
00:23:17,737 --> 00:23:20,572
We've got an unidentified victim
of an assault.
190
00:23:21,866 --> 00:23:25,869
No, we've got a pair of shorts,
and an Air Force Academy ring.
191
00:23:26,663 --> 00:23:29,540
The date is, 1968.
192
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:35,420
Number: 8765.
193
00:23:35,547 --> 00:23:37,422
- Do you mind?
- Yeah.
194
00:23:37,549 --> 00:23:40,300
- Emergency.
- I'll call you later. You're very welcome.
195
00:23:40,426 --> 00:23:41,760
Yeah, I know.
196
00:23:43,846 --> 00:23:47,766
As soon as I get this last nut out, Augie,
it should be free.
197
00:23:51,729 --> 00:23:53,229
General, I got a funny feeling.
198
00:23:54,190 --> 00:23:56,066
Now, Augie, relax.
199
00:23:58,945 --> 00:24:02,238
Now, slide it gently toward me,
till it's in the clear.
200
00:24:02,907 --> 00:24:05,951
- Till it's in the clear.
- No, just easy.
201
00:24:07,995 --> 00:24:12,082
Keep your eye on that bubble. As long
as it remains in the middle, we're OK.
202
00:24:12,208 --> 00:24:13,625
All right, bring it toward me.
203
00:24:14,460 --> 00:24:17,629
No, no, no, no. Now, wait. Just hold it.
204
00:24:17,755 --> 00:24:19,214
Give me your left hand.
205
00:24:19,340 --> 00:24:20,632
- You can't...
- I can't!
206
00:24:20,758 --> 00:24:22,467
You've gotta clear that...
207
00:24:22,594 --> 00:24:26,763
Augie, you've got to get your hands
around to this side of the stanchion.
208
00:24:27,807 --> 00:24:29,182
Now, give me your left hand.
209
00:24:29,809 --> 00:24:32,352
And bring it around here. That's it.
210
00:24:32,478 --> 00:24:34,020
All right, now. Now, you got it.
211
00:24:34,146 --> 00:24:35,731
No, release your right hand.
212
00:24:35,857 --> 00:24:38,900
I can't. I don't think this is gonna work.
213
00:24:39,861 --> 00:24:41,194
My hands... See?
214
00:24:42,071 --> 00:24:43,864
My fingers, they're stuck.
215
00:24:43,990 --> 00:24:46,700
Augie, let go. Augie!
216
00:24:48,828 --> 00:24:50,621
Now, Augie, take it easy.
217
00:24:50,747 --> 00:24:52,539
- Don't freeze up now.
- I'm trying.
218
00:24:52,665 --> 00:24:56,084
- Just let your right had go.
- My right hand go.
219
00:24:57,795 --> 00:25:01,131
Augie, let your right hand go.
220
00:25:01,799 --> 00:25:03,592
No, no, no, Augie!
221
00:25:03,718 --> 00:25:08,514
Now, just hold everything.
Now, let your right hand go.
222
00:25:09,223 --> 00:25:11,224
Let your right hand go!
223
00:25:11,350 --> 00:25:12,976
Eh!
224
00:25:15,938 --> 00:25:18,481
Powell?
225
00:25:19,526 --> 00:25:21,818
For Christ sake,
come here and give me a hand.
226
00:25:21,944 --> 00:25:25,446
Powell, for Christ sake,
come here and give me a fucking hand!
227
00:25:25,573 --> 00:25:29,409
Augie, just... take...
228
00:25:29,536 --> 00:25:32,412
- I don't think it's gonna...
- All right, all right.
229
00:25:33,414 --> 00:25:36,416
- I'll take it.
- Let go, let go.
230
00:25:37,334 --> 00:25:42,422
Easy... Bring it toward me.
232
00:25:42,549 --> 00:25:44,382
- We gotta clear the stanchion.
- Right.
233
00:25:44,509 --> 00:25:45,884
All right.
234
00:25:48,596 --> 00:25:50,346
What's that bubble?
235
00:25:51,891 --> 00:25:56,645
Keep your eye on the bubble.
Easy. Easy. It's all yours.
236
00:25:57,605 --> 00:25:58,980
I got it.
237
00:26:00,900 --> 00:26:02,233
It's all yours.
238
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,611
Watch the bubble.
239
00:26:06,072 --> 00:26:11,117
Father...
...who art in heaven...
241
00:26:15,122 --> 00:26:22,420
Easy.
242
00:26:23,715 --> 00:26:31,722
Beautiful.
243
00:26:40,732 --> 00:26:42,065
Jesus.
244
00:26:49,198 --> 00:26:51,199
You do damn good work, Private.
245
00:26:52,076 --> 00:26:55,203
When they busted me I was a corporal.
You got that?
246
00:27:03,713 --> 00:27:05,714
Come on, you guys. Time's running out.
247
00:27:07,341 --> 00:27:10,552
- What do you think?
- Well...
248
00:27:13,014 --> 00:27:14,598
Good luck to you, Charlie.
249
00:27:15,307 --> 00:27:18,143
What do you mean me?
You told me you knew about demolition.
250
00:27:18,269 --> 00:27:20,896
You told me you knew
everything about explosives.
251
00:27:21,022 --> 00:27:24,900
I would've told you I was George Wallace
with a tan to get out of that shithole.
252
00:27:25,026 --> 00:27:27,485
Willie, boy, you're beautiful!
253
00:27:28,655 --> 00:27:30,030
So, what are you gonna do?
254
00:27:30,156 --> 00:27:32,365
You may wish
you were back in that shithole.
255
00:27:34,869 --> 00:27:36,202
You say that to say what?
256
00:27:36,328 --> 00:27:40,456
The SACs like to change their equipment
every couple of years.
257
00:27:40,583 --> 00:27:47,005
Tentative ID indicates the assault victim
is Captain Roger F Kincaid, Silo 3.
258
00:27:47,131 --> 00:27:48,840
Did you call the cops?
259
00:27:48,966 --> 00:27:53,554
Yes, sir. They're taking pictures over at
the hospital for positive identification.
260
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,305
But I thought you'd wanna know.
261
00:27:55,431 --> 00:27:58,183
- Thanks, Kelly, Keep me informed.
- Yes, sir.
262
00:27:58,309 --> 00:28:00,351
I hope you guys are having fun
down there.
263
00:28:00,477 --> 00:28:03,479
One of those phones
is gonna ring any minute.
264
00:28:03,606 --> 00:28:07,192
And most booby traps go off
when you increase the pressure.
265
00:28:07,318 --> 00:28:09,402
This one is triggered
when you release it.
266
00:28:09,529 --> 00:28:12,322
What's all the game about?
Let's get on with it.
267
00:28:14,366 --> 00:28:17,202
While you're holding it,
I'll remove these fuses.
268
00:28:17,328 --> 00:28:19,245
And insert the non-conductor. Got it?
269
00:28:23,084 --> 00:28:24,876
Where the hell is it?
270
00:28:25,002 --> 00:28:27,754
You mean that little thing
that was in Hoxey's pocket?
271
00:28:29,048 --> 00:28:30,381
That's right.
272
00:28:31,258 --> 00:28:34,135
Well, he's upstairs sleeping, remember?
273
00:28:40,852 --> 00:28:43,937
General Stonesifer's office,
Sergeant Shortland speaking.
274
00:28:44,063 --> 00:28:46,064
- All done?
- Colonel Horne. Is he there?
275
00:28:46,190 --> 00:28:49,943
- Colonel, he just left for Hangar 5, sir.
- OK, I'll try there.
276
00:28:50,069 --> 00:28:51,987
That digital phone
is gonna ring any second.
277
00:28:52,113 --> 00:28:53,822
What the hell's he looking for now?
278
00:28:55,658 --> 00:28:58,326
- Hey! What are you, crazy?
- Terrific!
279
00:28:58,452 --> 00:29:00,996
This is Colonel Horne.
I want General Stonesifer.
280
00:29:01,122 --> 00:29:03,498
'Yes, Colonel, he's right here.'
281
00:29:05,459 --> 00:29:07,628
- Ready?
- Let's do it.
282
00:29:07,754 --> 00:29:11,673
'We have a man at
Great Falls Hospital, an assault victim.'
283
00:29:11,799 --> 00:29:14,926
Tentative identification:
Captain Roger F Kincaid.
284
00:29:15,052 --> 00:29:16,762
Currently assigned Silo 3.
285
00:29:16,888 --> 00:29:21,141
But Hughie tells me
Kincaid code-checked at 07:09.
286
00:29:21,267 --> 00:29:22,684
Well, that's impossible.
287
00:29:26,898 --> 00:29:30,734
Remember, the pull can be
as much as 150lbs.
288
00:29:51,463 --> 00:29:53,674
Only 30 seconds, you guys.
289
00:29:54,551 --> 00:29:55,884
Release it slowly.
290
00:30:01,432 --> 00:30:02,766
Easy.
291
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:17,448
Slowly.
292
00:30:25,540 --> 00:30:27,666
Hold it.
293
00:30:28,334 --> 00:30:29,751
Let go.
294
00:30:53,484 --> 00:30:57,153
Good morning, gentlemen.
16 November, 1981.
295
00:30:57,279 --> 00:31:00,907
Julian date, 81215.
296
00:31:01,033 --> 00:31:03,201
Today's briefing is classified as secret,
297
00:31:03,327 --> 00:31:07,956
according with the Air Force
regulation 219, paragraph 4a,
298
00:31:08,082 --> 00:31:10,333
SAC supplement 22c.
299
00:31:10,459 --> 00:31:14,588
Reference indicator report numbers
for further information.
300
00:31:14,714 --> 00:31:17,423
At present, gentlemen,
we are at Def Con 5.
301
00:31:17,550 --> 00:31:20,594
Battle-readiness for
man bomber squadron is 90%,
302
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,471
a reduction of 3%
over yesterday's report.
303
00:31:23,598 --> 00:31:26,432
Overall, snake pit's status report, 89%.
304
00:31:26,559 --> 00:31:29,520
Let it ring.
305
00:31:34,275 --> 00:31:36,401
Well, what do you know?
306
00:31:37,194 --> 00:31:39,237
If you could answer that!
307
00:31:49,456 --> 00:31:50,666
They'll wait.
308
00:32:13,981 --> 00:32:15,356
Silo 3.
309
00:32:15,482 --> 00:32:17,901
This is Touchdown.
Give me the first word, please.
310
00:32:18,027 --> 00:32:21,321
Touchdown, please connect me
with the duty controller.
311
00:32:21,447 --> 00:32:23,657
Silo 3, who, who's...?
312
00:32:23,783 --> 00:32:25,617
Touchdown, I gave you a direct order.
313
00:32:28,245 --> 00:32:30,080
Hold for Duty Control.
314
00:32:33,459 --> 00:32:36,377
'Silo 3 wants to talk to Duty Control.'
315
00:32:36,504 --> 00:32:38,296
- Silo 3?
- Yes, sir.
316
00:32:39,966 --> 00:32:44,845
'Silo 3, this is duty controller.
Identify yourself, please.'
317
00:32:44,971 --> 00:32:49,099
You'll inform CINCSAC
that Silo 3 is in hostile hands.
318
00:32:49,225 --> 00:32:52,644
I repeat, Silo 3 is in hostile hands.
319
00:32:54,396 --> 00:32:57,774
Look, whoever the hell you are,
320
00:32:57,900 --> 00:33:00,986
unauthorised use
of telecommunications is forbidden.
321
00:33:02,071 --> 00:33:05,532
I suggest you stop this nonsense.
Right now.
322
00:33:05,658 --> 00:33:09,578
I wanna talk with General Martin
Mackenzie, direct, private and now!
323
00:33:12,749 --> 00:33:14,415
Look, this is your final warning.
324
00:33:14,542 --> 00:33:18,086
If you don't get off that phone, you are
gonna be in so much bloody trouble.
325
00:33:18,212 --> 00:33:20,213
Whom am I speaking with?
Identify yourself.
326
00:33:21,883 --> 00:33:25,927
Colonel Alexander B Franklin.
327
00:33:28,139 --> 00:33:30,891
And who the hell am I talking to?
328
00:33:31,017 --> 00:33:36,980
Colonel Franklin, this is Lawrence Dell,
and we have taken control of Silo 3.
329
00:33:37,106 --> 00:33:41,401
You will inform Mackenzie that we have
knocked out his cut-offs and his inhibitors,
330
00:33:41,528 --> 00:33:43,987
and we can now launch his nine birds.
331
00:33:44,113 --> 00:33:46,615
I repeat, we have full launch control.
332
00:33:48,576 --> 00:33:52,370
- First time I've seen him with a hard-on.
- What do we do now?
333
00:33:57,209 --> 00:34:00,754
Until we get the keys out of that safe,
we're bluffing.
334
00:34:01,548 --> 00:34:04,174
Now, aren't you sorry you killed Hoxey?
335
00:34:06,093 --> 00:34:09,930
There are two men in there.
One of them will have the combination.
336
00:34:10,056 --> 00:34:14,225
Let us ask:
How can we ignore these facts,
337
00:34:14,351 --> 00:34:16,978
while lusting after goodies?
338
00:34:23,485 --> 00:34:28,031
Let us... Let...
340
00:34:31,703 --> 00:34:34,412
Let us, let us ask,
341
00:34:34,539 --> 00:34:39,876
how, what our responsibilities
are to our fellow man,
342
00:34:40,002 --> 00:34:44,089
social scientists
and street-corner philosophers...
343
00:34:52,139 --> 00:34:54,766
- Urgent message from the duty controller.
- Right.
344
00:34:57,645 --> 00:35:00,063
- Mackenzie.
- This is Colonel Franklin, sir.
345
00:35:01,608 --> 00:35:04,067
We have rather
a peculiar situation in Silo 3.
346
00:35:04,193 --> 00:35:07,904
- I'm listening.
- I think we better get on the scrambler.
347
00:35:12,284 --> 00:35:13,910
OK, Colonel, let's have it.
348
00:35:14,036 --> 00:35:15,370
Enemy in Silo 3.
349
00:35:15,496 --> 00:35:18,248
- Where else?
- Nowhere else, sir. Just in Silo 3.
350
00:35:18,374 --> 00:35:21,334
- And that's all it's going to be.
- Only Silo 3?
351
00:35:22,837 --> 00:35:27,966
It's not them. General, I think you better
get back to the CP as soon as you can.
352
00:35:28,092 --> 00:35:29,968
I'm on my way, Colonel.
353
00:35:30,094 --> 00:35:32,345
Open up, Alfie. Kick ass all the way.
354
00:35:32,471 --> 00:35:34,389
Right, sir.
355
00:35:40,813 --> 00:35:45,191
Sandy... we're gonna have
to have that combination.
356
00:35:46,402 --> 00:35:51,197
You haven't learned a thing, have you?
Still going up against a stacked deck.
357
00:35:51,991 --> 00:35:53,992
This time I'm gonna blow it wide open.
358
00:35:54,118 --> 00:35:59,414
This time? Hey, when are you gonna
wake up and smell the coffee?
359
00:35:59,541 --> 00:36:01,457
Nobody gives a Chinese fuck!
360
00:36:01,584 --> 00:36:05,461
You can climb up on a Capitol building.
Wouldn't bring sweat on a pig's ass.
361
00:36:05,588 --> 00:36:07,047
What the hell happened to you?
362
00:36:08,841 --> 00:36:10,383
I mean, who are you?
363
00:36:12,970 --> 00:36:14,721
I saw the light, that's all.
364
00:36:15,973 --> 00:36:17,891
I finally figured it out.
365
00:36:20,144 --> 00:36:23,605
They don't wanna fucking know!
Period!
366
00:36:28,945 --> 00:36:32,864
Sandy, if we can expose
their true intentions...
367
00:36:32,990 --> 00:36:35,576
They'll crucify you.
That's what they'll do.
368
00:36:35,702 --> 00:36:37,160
I don't believe it.
369
00:36:37,286 --> 00:36:40,706
The problem lies with leadership.
Nobody's had the guts to get it out.
370
00:36:40,832 --> 00:36:43,834
To say it. To tell the truth.
371
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,713
The truth? Jesus Christ!
372
00:36:49,423 --> 00:36:52,133
How long were we caged up?
Five years?
373
00:36:53,344 --> 00:36:57,973
Well, I wasn't home five minutes before
they had me believing it was all my fault.
374
00:36:58,099 --> 00:37:01,768
The VC, the war.
Me being taken prisoner.
375
00:37:01,894 --> 00:37:04,521
The orphans. The massacres.
Everything!
376
00:37:08,526 --> 00:37:12,696
Damn it, man, I took so much shit!
I wish I was back in a fuckingjungle!
377
00:37:15,324 --> 00:37:20,746
I wasjust a flunky captain. You'd have
thought I was one of the joint chiefs.
378
00:37:20,872 --> 00:37:24,916
That's because nobody knew
how it happened. Or why it happened.
379
00:37:25,752 --> 00:37:28,378
Now they're gonna find out.
380
00:37:29,506 --> 00:37:31,006
Yeah?
381
00:37:33,342 --> 00:37:38,429
If you think that this... crazy stunt
of yours is gonna change anything...
382
00:37:40,391 --> 00:37:42,225
...you really are hopeless.
383
00:37:42,894 --> 00:37:45,729
Now, get outta here. Leave me alone.
384
00:38:00,119 --> 00:38:03,580
For a man who broke out of the joint
to steal $10 million,
385
00:38:03,706 --> 00:38:06,625
you sure talk a lot
about God and country.
386
00:38:08,836 --> 00:38:10,587
Hey, I'm talking to you, asshole!
387
00:38:13,049 --> 00:38:14,382
I haven't said a thing yet.
388
00:38:15,342 --> 00:38:18,887
It's your war, Generalissimo, but
unless you get the keys out of that safe,
389
00:38:19,013 --> 00:38:20,514
it's not gonna be a very long one.
390
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,849
Hey, wait a minute, you guys.
391
00:38:22,975 --> 00:38:26,978
Didn't you say something about
every system needing a backup system?
392
00:38:27,104 --> 00:38:29,981
- That's right.
- Well, allow me, sir.
393
00:38:36,030 --> 00:38:39,199
- What the hell's going on?
- You better listen to this, General.
394
00:38:40,785 --> 00:38:43,745
'Whom am I speaking with?
Identify yourself.'
395
00:38:44,371 --> 00:38:48,750
'Colonel Alexander B Franklin.
396
00:38:50,377 --> 00:38:52,295
'But who the hell am I talking to?
397
00:38:53,005 --> 00:38:56,466
'Colonel Franklin,
this is Lawrence Dell,
398
00:38:56,593 --> 00:38:59,427
'and we have taken control of Silo 3.
399
00:38:59,554 --> 00:39:01,429
'You'll inform Mackenzie... '
Him.
400
00:39:01,556 --> 00:39:03,742
'... that we have knocked out
his cut-offs and inhibitors,
401
00:39:03,766 --> 00:39:06,309
'and we can now launch his nine birds.
402
00:39:06,435 --> 00:39:09,855
'I repeat, we have full launch control.'
403
00:39:16,821 --> 00:39:18,905
Jesus Christ.
404
00:39:33,838 --> 00:39:35,756
They did it, General.
405
00:39:35,882 --> 00:39:37,799
Don't ask me how, but they did it.
406
00:39:39,301 --> 00:39:42,428
Would you please check this back
to Computer Control?
407
00:39:42,555 --> 00:39:44,472
That's impossible.
408
00:39:45,057 --> 00:39:47,475
Colonel, I have a limited
tolerance for humour.
409
00:39:48,477 --> 00:39:52,523
Well, all the inhibitor cables
have been severed.
410
00:39:52,649 --> 00:39:54,858
All fail-safe systems failed.
411
00:39:57,403 --> 00:39:59,445
That's gotta be bullshit!
412
00:40:00,114 --> 00:40:02,323
I have to contradict you, General,
413
00:40:02,449 --> 00:40:05,661
because it is a fact
that Silo 3 is independent.
414
00:40:06,453 --> 00:40:11,542
And I suspect General Dell has
unimpeded irrevocable launch control.
415
00:40:12,126 --> 00:40:13,752
That's unbelievable.
416
00:40:14,336 --> 00:40:16,672
General Dell was an exceptional officer.
417
00:40:17,298 --> 00:40:19,758
Nobody in the Air Force
knew our equipment better.
418
00:40:20,593 --> 00:40:22,553
And you know that, General.
419
00:40:24,138 --> 00:40:27,473
Yeah. I know that.
420
00:40:34,065 --> 00:40:36,149
What do you think?
421
00:40:36,275 --> 00:40:38,318
I don't know what to think.
422
00:40:39,445 --> 00:40:42,363
Charlie to Touchdown.
Approaching target area.
423
00:40:42,489 --> 00:40:44,199
Charlie One, Charlie Two, going in.
424
00:40:44,325 --> 00:40:47,869
Charlie Three will remain
in radio contact. Going down.
425
00:40:53,459 --> 00:40:55,126
'Perimeter fence is visible.'
426
00:40:55,837 --> 00:40:59,089
Car, a SAC pickup,
parked inside the compound.
427
00:41:04,637 --> 00:41:06,847
'We're going down.'
428
00:41:14,230 --> 00:41:16,773
'No sign of enemies.
100ft, here we go.'
429
00:41:20,444 --> 00:41:22,112
Just 20 yards till the touchdown.
430
00:41:35,084 --> 00:41:40,296
Attaboy. Everything by the book.
You confirmed my faith in the military.
431
00:41:43,134 --> 00:41:45,260
Well, what do you know, Jack Fox?
432
00:41:45,386 --> 00:41:47,638
They got the First Team working today.
433
00:41:48,430 --> 00:41:51,474
And it's Sunday.
434
00:41:56,606 --> 00:41:59,190
- Who's in command of Fast Charlie?
- Major Fox, sir.
435
00:41:59,859 --> 00:42:01,902
A tough son of a bitch.
He'll be ready.
436
00:42:06,574 --> 00:42:10,869
- Get your ass moving.
- Predictable strategy. Tell 'em, Jack.
437
00:42:10,995 --> 00:42:12,704
Tell 'em we're definitely for real.
438
00:42:12,830 --> 00:42:15,541
You got the combination
for that thing out there?
439
00:42:19,587 --> 00:42:20,837
Screw you.
440
00:42:22,507 --> 00:42:24,841
Like I used to tell those scabs
back in Jersey,
441
00:42:24,967 --> 00:42:27,969
it's a shame they gotta go to hospital
with no union benefits.
442
00:42:30,347 --> 00:42:34,100
Have you got a dog?
Does he got one?
443
00:42:35,227 --> 00:42:36,562
Hey, buzz off!
444
00:42:38,064 --> 00:42:41,482
Captain's gonna need a good
Seeing Eye dog before this party's over.
445
00:42:49,116 --> 00:42:51,993
Will, you keep your damn mouth shut.
You hear me?
446
00:42:59,418 --> 00:43:00,752
Boy.
447
00:43:02,589 --> 00:43:05,841
That leaves one.
Now the rest is up to you.
448
00:43:05,967 --> 00:43:09,928
Are you gonna leave the captain with one
good eye, or pull the curtains completely?
449
00:43:10,054 --> 00:43:14,558
- You blinded him?
- I asked you first, didn't I?
450
00:43:14,684 --> 00:43:16,810
And you didn't wanna cooperate.
451
00:43:19,438 --> 00:43:21,064
Wait a minute! Wait!
452
00:43:28,990 --> 00:43:30,323
My dog tags.
453
00:43:32,451 --> 00:43:34,911
- Dog tags.
- The dog tags.
454
00:43:37,540 --> 00:43:38,874
It's the combination.
455
00:43:41,085 --> 00:43:42,919
You know, you really are a nice fella.
456
00:43:43,045 --> 00:43:46,422
- And you're a fucking animal!
- What the fuck kind of attitude is that?
457
00:43:46,549 --> 00:43:49,968
Don't cry.
458
00:43:51,763 --> 00:43:53,555
Why, in a couple of days,
459
00:43:53,681 --> 00:43:56,808
your man's gonna be eyeballing
all kinds of pussy.
460
00:43:56,934 --> 00:44:00,478
You see Jerseyjust gave him
a little shot in the shoulder.
461
00:44:02,815 --> 00:44:07,193
I tell you, man, you white boys
sure ain't very street-wise.
462
00:44:07,319 --> 00:44:09,655
Hey, General,
we got the combination.
463
00:44:12,867 --> 00:44:16,494
Well, well,
we've got company upstairs.
464
00:44:24,045 --> 00:44:26,046
Right out of the Air Force manual.
465
00:44:39,894 --> 00:44:42,187
Don't forget to check out
the pickup truck.
466
00:44:45,149 --> 00:44:46,692
That's it.
467
00:44:50,321 --> 00:44:52,989
I would estimate the phone to ring
in less than a minute.
468
00:45:16,931 --> 00:45:18,765
Guard house empty.
469
00:45:19,684 --> 00:45:21,768
'Except for two bodies.'
470
00:45:21,894 --> 00:45:23,812
Here. Merry Christmas.
471
00:45:26,899 --> 00:45:30,694
They brought up the troops?
Hey, we're surrounded now.
472
00:45:30,820 --> 00:45:32,779
- Relax.
- What the hell is going on?
473
00:45:32,905 --> 00:45:35,240
Take it easy.
They're just having a look around.
474
00:45:35,825 --> 00:45:38,076
Tell him to try Launch Control
on the intercom.
475
00:45:38,202 --> 00:45:39,953
Fast Charlie, try Launch Control.
476
00:45:40,079 --> 00:45:42,372
What did I tell you?
477
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,670
This is Major Fox from Launch Control.
478
00:45:49,964 --> 00:45:52,591
'What is the situation in Silo 3? '
479
00:45:52,717 --> 00:45:55,927
Colonel Towne and Lieutenant Canellis
are cooperating with us.
480
00:45:56,053 --> 00:45:58,597
A sergeant is dead
in the communications room.
481
00:45:58,723 --> 00:46:02,183
His killer is lying in the car there.
Pick them both up and get 'em out.
482
00:46:02,977 --> 00:46:06,730
Further communications will come
from CINCSAC himself and nobody else.
483
00:46:06,856 --> 00:46:08,148
Understood?
484
00:46:08,274 --> 00:46:13,820
- 'Understood.'
- Son of a bitch. He's down there.
485
00:46:16,741 --> 00:46:20,577
Fast Charlie, this is Spider Biter,
obey all instructions.
486
00:46:20,703 --> 00:46:23,580
I repeat, evacuate guard house.
487
00:46:23,706 --> 00:46:26,041
That means all personnel.
488
00:46:26,167 --> 00:46:30,504
Containment procedures by air police
and armoured personnel carriers.
489
00:46:30,630 --> 00:46:33,131
Stay 1,000 yards from the church,
490
00:46:33,257 --> 00:46:36,342
but call up as many men as you need
to form an unbreakable circle.
491
00:46:36,468 --> 00:46:38,136
No ins, no outs.
492
00:46:39,471 --> 00:46:41,557
- OK.
- Clear the net.
493
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:47,062
Suppose he's got the keys?
494
00:46:47,814 --> 00:46:49,773
It wouldn't surprise me.
495
00:47:16,718 --> 00:47:19,469
Gentlemen, we are now a super power.
496
00:47:21,347 --> 00:47:25,225
Well, gentlemen, until we kill Dell,
497
00:47:26,185 --> 00:47:28,353
and, make no mistake about it,
we will,
498
00:47:29,105 --> 00:47:31,607
this situation will remain top secret.
499
00:47:32,609 --> 00:47:36,069
Only General Stonesifer at Malmstrom
is to know what's happened.
500
00:47:37,655 --> 00:47:39,656
Now, get me Silo 3 on the phone,
and tape it.
501
00:47:39,782 --> 00:47:42,701
Make sure everything's put
on scrambler from now on.
502
00:47:44,453 --> 00:47:46,830
- Get me Silo 3.
- Yes, sir.
503
00:47:53,838 --> 00:47:55,922
- This is Mackenzie.
- Greetings, General.
504
00:47:56,048 --> 00:48:00,301
Dell, I can't believe a former
general officer of the Air Force,
505
00:48:00,427 --> 00:48:03,847
no matter what the grievance,
would humiliate the service.
506
00:48:03,973 --> 00:48:07,934
Mac, let's cut out the shit. We both
know what these nine birds can do.
507
00:48:08,603 --> 00:48:11,396
You've got exactly one hour
to connect me with the old man.
508
00:48:11,523 --> 00:48:13,106
Look, you lunatic, son of a bitch...
509
00:48:13,232 --> 00:48:16,652
"Lunatic" in my book is defined
as someone who buries the truth.
510
00:48:16,778 --> 00:48:20,196
I intend to hold it up to the world,
and let them see what it's really like.
511
00:48:21,490 --> 00:48:24,325
- I'm telling you, Dell...
- You're telling me nothing!
512
00:48:24,451 --> 00:48:26,119
You had your chance.
513
00:48:26,245 --> 00:48:30,749
A hundred times I begged you
to go upstairs to tell the truth, but no.
514
00:48:30,875 --> 00:48:32,543
You sent my memos to the shredder.
515
00:48:32,669 --> 00:48:36,421
When I wouldn't trade what I believed in
for a star, you sent me to the shredder.
516
00:48:38,550 --> 00:48:40,258
Well, I'm out now, General,
517
00:48:40,384 --> 00:48:43,845
and I've got my finger on the button,
and you've got 60 minutes.
518
00:48:43,971 --> 00:48:47,724
When this phone rings again, it better
be the President of the United States.
519
00:48:54,566 --> 00:48:57,526
Well... what does he want?
520
00:48:59,654 --> 00:49:01,404
He wants to talk to the President.
521
00:49:05,535 --> 00:49:06,993
Come on!
522
00:49:07,119 --> 00:49:09,996
- Come on!
- Yes, Mildred.
523
00:49:10,122 --> 00:49:12,373
'The Secretary of Defence
has just arrived.'
524
00:49:12,499 --> 00:49:15,544
Thank you.
Ask him to come in, please.
525
00:49:15,670 --> 00:49:18,254
- 'Yes, Mr President.'
- OK. General. Pretend it's halftime.
526
00:49:20,382 --> 00:49:22,926
- Don't forget the Chicago charm.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
527
00:49:24,846 --> 00:49:26,597
Hello, Mr Secretary.
528
00:49:26,723 --> 00:49:28,515
So good of you to come.
Please sit.
529
00:49:28,641 --> 00:49:31,267
You looked very sharp
on "Meet The Press" this morning.
530
00:49:32,645 --> 00:49:35,021
With the football game on television,
General,
531
00:49:35,147 --> 00:49:37,065
I'm humbled that you tuned in.
532
00:49:38,484 --> 00:49:41,528
See today's dispatch cartoon on us?
533
00:49:41,654 --> 00:49:43,113
How about some coffee?
534
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:45,448
- Too early for a drink?
- No, thank you.
535
00:49:45,575 --> 00:49:47,075
Mr President,
536
00:49:47,201 --> 00:49:51,955
when you asked me to come down
from Princeton to look after Defence,
537
00:49:52,081 --> 00:49:53,874
as you quaintly put it,
538
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:57,377
you didn't tell me
I'd be working for Renfrew.
539
00:49:57,504 --> 00:50:01,464
If the rumours about my imminent
departure are coming from him,
540
00:50:01,591 --> 00:50:03,592
I can handle it,
541
00:50:03,718 --> 00:50:07,012
but I will not be a member
of your election team,
542
00:50:07,138 --> 00:50:09,556
if I'm to be replaced
after next November.
543
00:50:10,349 --> 00:50:14,060
In other words, Mr President,
if you're going to fire me, do it now.
544
00:50:18,816 --> 00:50:22,819
Mr Secretary,
I have no intention off iring you.
545
00:50:22,945 --> 00:50:24,821
Not now or after the election.
546
00:50:26,699 --> 00:50:30,911
What I would like...
is for you and Renfrew
547
00:50:31,037 --> 00:50:33,622
to expedite the policy
of this administration.
548
00:50:34,373 --> 00:50:35,707
What policy?
549
00:50:40,212 --> 00:50:41,755
Are you saying we have no policy?
550
00:50:43,007 --> 00:50:44,508
That's correct, Mr President.
551
00:51:08,490 --> 00:51:11,868
- This is Stevens.
- Mr President, this is General Mackenzie.
552
00:51:11,994 --> 00:51:14,287
- We're on scrambler.
- Yes, General?
553
00:51:15,372 --> 00:51:19,209
We have a crisis situation
at one of our missile centres, sir.
554
00:51:20,169 --> 00:51:21,503
I'm listening.
555
00:51:21,629 --> 00:51:26,633
Three escaped convicts, led by a former
general in the Air Force, Lawrence Dell...
556
00:51:26,759 --> 00:51:31,429
Wait a minute. The general convicted
of killing somebody up in Wyoming?
557
00:51:32,139 --> 00:51:33,932
Montana. Yes, sir.
558
00:51:34,809 --> 00:51:38,854
They penetrated an ICBM launch centre
near Malmstrom.
559
00:51:40,356 --> 00:51:44,776
And, sir, we've confirmed
that Silo 3 is isolated.
560
00:51:44,902 --> 00:51:48,363
Isolated?
What the hell does that mean?
561
00:51:49,281 --> 00:51:52,200
It means, sir, we're unable
to inhibit launching.
562
00:51:53,452 --> 00:51:56,162
You tell me
a renegade general's got his finger
563
00:51:56,288 --> 00:51:59,207
on the button of a Titan missile?
564
00:51:59,333 --> 00:52:01,627
No, sir.
565
00:52:01,753 --> 00:52:05,756
The button can launch
nine Titan missiles.
566
00:52:08,217 --> 00:52:12,095
Jesus Christ, Mackenzie! What the hell
are you guys doing out there?
567
00:52:14,516 --> 00:52:19,435
- Those missiles have atomic warheads?
- Yes, sir. Titans are first line of defence.
568
00:52:19,562 --> 00:52:24,775
How in the hell does some... joker
walk into a top-secret installation,
569
00:52:24,901 --> 00:52:28,319
and get control of the most sophisticated
weapons system in the world?
570
00:52:28,445 --> 00:52:30,822
You want to explain that, General?
571
00:52:30,948 --> 00:52:33,867
Lawrence Dell is no joker,
Mr President.
572
00:52:33,993 --> 00:52:36,494
He was on my staff for two years.
573
00:52:36,621 --> 00:52:40,666
He was one of the primary designers
of Malmstrom's missile installation.
574
00:52:43,670 --> 00:52:45,962
Where are these missiles aimed,
General?
575
00:52:46,756 --> 00:52:48,590
I don't know, Mr President.
576
00:52:48,716 --> 00:52:51,677
You don't know?
577
00:52:51,803 --> 00:52:54,220
All target areas are classified, sir,
578
00:52:54,346 --> 00:52:57,808
known only to you, the joint chiefs
and the National Security Council.
579
00:52:58,434 --> 00:53:00,018
Well, take a guess, General.
580
00:53:00,144 --> 00:53:02,187
Well, I would assume, sir,
the...
581
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:06,858
...the target areas are
somewhere in the Soviet Union.
582
00:53:07,527 --> 00:53:12,488
Have you, talked
to this, this Dell character
583
00:53:12,615 --> 00:53:14,490
since he assumed control of...?
584
00:53:15,618 --> 00:53:17,828
Silo 3. Yes, sir, I have.
585
00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:23,584
He told me that
if he didn't talk to you in 58 minutes,
586
00:53:23,710 --> 00:53:25,085
he was prepared to launch.
587
00:53:25,211 --> 00:53:26,920
Did he say anything else?
588
00:53:28,214 --> 00:53:30,423
He had a number of things to say,
Mr President.
589
00:53:30,550 --> 00:53:33,051
I can send you a transcription
in a matter of seconds.
590
00:53:33,928 --> 00:53:37,598
General, I'm gonna ask a straight
question. I want a straight answer.
591
00:53:37,724 --> 00:53:41,852
Is there any way to talk those bastards out
without endangering the entire world?
592
00:53:41,978 --> 00:53:43,645
No, sir.
593
00:53:46,190 --> 00:53:50,652
Second question:
You said General Dell was on your staff,
594
00:53:50,778 --> 00:53:53,029
you must know him pretty well.
595
00:53:53,155 --> 00:53:55,907
Do you think it would be possible
for me to...
596
00:53:56,033 --> 00:53:59,327
well, let's say negotiate
successfully with him?
597
00:53:59,453 --> 00:54:04,249
Well, sir, I've watched you turn swords
into plough shares on TV.
598
00:54:05,417 --> 00:54:09,420
But in this situation,
I... I wouldn't count on it.
599
00:54:09,547 --> 00:54:11,923
I appreciate your candour,
General Mackenzie.
600
00:54:12,717 --> 00:54:15,093
There's one more thing,
Mr President.
601
00:54:15,845 --> 00:54:20,140
In order to launch, two keys
must be turned simultaneously.
602
00:54:20,266 --> 00:54:22,225
These keys are locked in a wall safe.
603
00:54:23,227 --> 00:54:26,688
We have no way of confirming
that Dell has opened this safe.
604
00:54:27,481 --> 00:54:29,274
What's your opinion, General?
605
00:54:30,359 --> 00:54:33,862
Well, those boys in Silo 3 are
the best we have, Mr President.
606
00:54:33,988 --> 00:54:35,739
I don't think they'd crack.
607
00:54:36,323 --> 00:54:37,658
No, sir.
608
00:54:38,284 --> 00:54:41,161
I think the son of a bitch
is bluffing all the way.
609
00:54:42,204 --> 00:54:44,039
You better be right, General.
610
00:54:49,211 --> 00:54:51,922
Get Renfrew, Whittaker, Klinger.
Who else?
611
00:54:52,048 --> 00:54:54,675
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs,
Pete Craven of the Air Force.
612
00:54:54,801 --> 00:54:57,237
Tell them to come in by the tunnel
from the executive office building.
613
00:54:57,261 --> 00:54:59,304
- It'll be less conspicuous.
- Yes, sir.
614
00:55:12,026 --> 00:55:13,944
'I'm telling you, Dell...
615
00:55:14,070 --> 00:55:16,947
'You're telling me nothing!
You had your chance.
616
00:55:17,073 --> 00:55:21,492
'A hundred times I begged you
to go upstairs to tell the truth, but no.
617
00:55:21,619 --> 00:55:23,286
'You sent my memos to the shredder.
618
00:55:23,412 --> 00:55:27,999
'When I wouldn't trade what I believed in
for a star, you sent me to the shredder.
619
00:55:28,125 --> 00:55:29,876
'Well, I'm out now, General,
620
00:55:30,002 --> 00:55:33,213
'and I've got my finger on the button,
and you've got 60 minutes.
621
00:55:33,339 --> 00:55:37,050
'When this phone rings again, it better be
the President of the United States.'
622
00:55:39,345 --> 00:55:41,888
- Anyone want a replay?
- Once is enough.
623
00:55:42,014 --> 00:55:44,600
- Mr President...
- Stay seated, gentlemen.
624
00:55:45,893 --> 00:55:48,562
Thanks for coming in
by the servants' quarters.
625
00:55:49,939 --> 00:55:52,065
Somebody once said that,
626
00:55:52,734 --> 00:55:55,401
the curiosity of
the White House press corps
627
00:55:55,528 --> 00:55:57,445
is exceeded only by their treachery.
628
00:55:59,741 --> 00:56:05,036
Now, it's, my decision to bypass
the National Security Council.
629
00:56:06,247 --> 00:56:10,709
We must prevent the possibility that
the Russians might learn what's going on.
630
00:56:10,835 --> 00:56:14,295
Now, there are endless considerations.
631
00:56:14,421 --> 00:56:18,216
Legal, diplomatic and moral.
632
00:56:19,761 --> 00:56:23,930
But I think we can assume
it's a simple case of extortion.
633
00:56:24,056 --> 00:56:27,142
Mr President, extortion is never simple.
634
00:56:27,268 --> 00:56:30,186
I stand corrected.
Sophisticated extortion.
635
00:56:31,773 --> 00:56:35,567
The United States Government
can't do business with murderers.
636
00:56:35,693 --> 00:56:40,446
That's not true, Arthur, and it never has
been true. When it's to our advantage.
637
00:56:40,573 --> 00:56:43,992
We have the most cordial relations
with a wide variety of undesirables.
638
00:56:44,118 --> 00:56:47,078
Well, who is this Dell character?
639
00:56:47,204 --> 00:56:49,289
The CIA's never even heard of him.
640
00:56:49,415 --> 00:56:51,917
You all have a summary
of his service record.
641
00:56:53,711 --> 00:56:57,923
General Crane,
he was in the Air Force, wasn't he?
642
00:57:00,426 --> 00:57:03,094
Can you shed any light on this man?
643
00:57:10,477 --> 00:57:15,816
For almost 30 years,
Lawrence Dell was a superior soldier,
644
00:57:15,942 --> 00:57:20,028
but he had great difficulty in adjusting
after five years in a prison camp.
645
00:57:20,947 --> 00:57:24,199
When he came home,
he found that his wife had left him.
646
00:57:24,325 --> 00:57:27,493
He was moody, dissatisfied, unhappy.
647
00:57:28,412 --> 00:57:31,665
- We tried very...
- We railroaded him.
648
00:57:38,214 --> 00:57:39,965
- We what?
- We railroaded him.
649
00:57:40,091 --> 00:57:43,927
He was political, he was radicalised,
we made him a general to shut him up.
650
00:57:44,053 --> 00:57:46,387
The one star didn't work.
He kept on truckin'.
651
00:57:46,514 --> 00:57:49,641
Then he threatened to go public.
The incident in Montana came up.
652
00:57:49,767 --> 00:57:52,310
What incident?
653
00:57:53,187 --> 00:57:57,148
He got into an argument
with the brother of a 'Nam MIA,
654
00:57:57,274 --> 00:58:00,193
and it turned into a brawl,
and this fella had a bad ticker.
655
00:58:00,319 --> 00:58:02,237
The whole thing was
simply an accident,
656
00:58:02,363 --> 00:58:06,366
but it wasjust much too good
an opportunity to pass up.
657
00:58:06,993 --> 00:58:08,326
So?
658
00:58:13,583 --> 00:58:17,043
So... we threw the book at him.
659
00:58:17,169 --> 00:58:18,587
30 years to life.
660
00:58:21,465 --> 00:58:24,384
It happened a long time
before we arrived, Mr President.
661
00:58:24,511 --> 00:58:28,680
Most regrettable, Mr President,
but in the interest of the service...
662
00:58:29,807 --> 00:58:33,101
I don't think you can avoid it,
Mr President. You must talk to him.
663
00:58:34,646 --> 00:58:36,271
Anybody disagree?
664
00:58:45,072 --> 00:58:49,159
Mildred, get me Silo 3 at Malmstrom
for the President, please.
665
00:58:49,285 --> 00:58:50,619
'Yes, sir.'
666
00:59:01,172 --> 00:59:04,299
- Yeah, who's calling?
- David Stevens.
667
00:59:04,425 --> 00:59:09,304
- May I speak to General Dell, please?
- Hey, it's really him. It's really him.
668
00:59:09,430 --> 00:59:12,182
I'm not kidding.
That's the President on the phone.
669
00:59:18,648 --> 00:59:21,316
Mr President, this is a great honour.
670
00:59:21,442 --> 00:59:22,901
Thank you, General.
671
00:59:23,861 --> 00:59:26,655
I don't mind saying,
you've got us over a barrel.
672
00:59:26,781 --> 00:59:29,365
But I'm sure we can work it out
in a reasonable fashion.
673
00:59:30,868 --> 00:59:34,454
I understand you've been a victim
of tragic circumstances.
674
00:59:34,581 --> 00:59:37,373
Mr President, let me clear the air.
675
00:59:38,042 --> 00:59:39,585
I did not take this action
676
00:59:39,711 --> 00:59:42,253
because the Air Force blew up
manslaughter into murder one.
677
00:59:43,464 --> 00:59:44,798
Well, what can I do for you?
678
00:59:44,924 --> 00:59:47,843
- There are several demands.
- You have my attention, General.
679
00:59:47,969 --> 00:59:54,307
First, for the men with me,
$10 million in small denominations.
680
00:59:55,768 --> 00:59:59,020
- And second?
- Transportation to a country of our choice.
681
01:00:00,189 --> 01:00:02,566
- How?
- Air Force One.
682
01:00:03,818 --> 01:00:07,320
Is that all?
683
01:00:07,446 --> 01:00:12,242
And to make certain
we arrive safely... a hostage.
684
01:00:13,119 --> 01:00:14,870
Who do you have in mind?
685
01:00:15,538 --> 01:00:18,081
You, Mr President.
686
01:00:24,255 --> 01:00:25,589
I see.
687
01:00:27,299 --> 01:00:28,717
Anything else?
688
01:00:29,594 --> 01:00:30,969
One more thing, sir.
689
01:00:31,971 --> 01:00:33,639
I believe the time has come for you
690
01:00:33,765 --> 01:00:37,392
to restore the confidence of the
American people and their government
691
01:00:37,519 --> 01:00:42,147
by disclosing the two reasons why
this country was made to endure a war
692
01:00:42,273 --> 01:00:46,902
that cost over 50,000 American lives,
and 20 times that many southeast Asians,
693
01:00:47,028 --> 01:00:48,361
all for nothing.
694
01:00:48,487 --> 01:00:51,239
I'm not sure I follow.
695
01:00:51,365 --> 01:00:56,077
You will broadcast the contents
of NSC document 9759.
696
01:00:56,203 --> 01:00:57,788
Minutes.
697
01:00:58,665 --> 01:01:02,000
NSC? The minutes
of a National Security meeting?
698
01:01:02,126 --> 01:01:05,128
Exactly. 9759.
699
01:01:05,254 --> 01:01:09,215
And after we arrive at our destination,
you will appear on television,
700
01:01:09,341 --> 01:01:11,718
and inform the American people
of its contents.
701
01:01:11,844 --> 01:01:15,013
- How did you obtain that document?
- Shit!
702
01:01:15,139 --> 01:01:17,140
From a patriot, but that's irrelevant.
703
01:01:18,726 --> 01:01:22,020
I must ask you to give me
good time to study it.
704
01:01:22,814 --> 01:01:24,690
How much time?
705
01:01:24,816 --> 01:01:26,692
Let's say a couple of hours.
706
01:01:28,653 --> 01:01:30,403
One hour.
707
01:01:30,530 --> 01:01:33,574
As a gesture of...
mutual confidence...
708
01:01:35,284 --> 01:01:38,119
- ...how about an hour and a half?
- Agreed.
709
01:01:39,872 --> 01:01:42,498
- Thank you, General.
- Thank you, Mr President.
710
01:01:55,262 --> 01:01:58,431
With that rhetoric, he could be
elected governor in ten states.
711
01:01:58,558 --> 01:02:01,935
Ask Stoney to put all units
on combat alert,
712
01:02:02,061 --> 01:02:06,607
and move in a command trailer for me
outside video range of Silo 3.
713
01:02:07,399 --> 01:02:12,779
And I want direct lines to the White House,
here, Malmstrom and Silo 3.
714
01:02:12,905 --> 01:02:16,282
- All on sealed secure channels. Got that?
- Right, sir.
715
01:02:16,408 --> 01:02:20,245
Target one, Novosibirsk, heavy industry.
716
01:02:20,371 --> 01:02:23,540
This is horrifying. I can't believe this.
717
01:02:24,709 --> 01:02:26,209
Cool it.
718
01:02:27,253 --> 01:02:28,837
Read and pass on.
719
01:02:30,089 --> 01:02:34,551
Gentlemen, until all of us have
finished reading this document,
720
01:02:34,677 --> 01:02:37,220
any further discussion is irrelevant.
721
01:02:37,346 --> 01:02:38,805
Page four. Read and pass on.
722
01:02:40,683 --> 01:02:44,520
Well, gentlemen,
those are the targets for Silo 3.
723
01:03:07,001 --> 01:03:08,627
Attention!
724
01:03:12,214 --> 01:03:13,590
Slow down.
725
01:03:13,716 --> 01:03:15,300
At ease.
726
01:03:15,426 --> 01:03:18,303
Hello. All right.
727
01:03:19,471 --> 01:03:22,348
- Armour all in place, gentlemen?
- Yes, sir.
728
01:03:22,474 --> 01:03:26,687
If you go in at exactly 4,800 feet,
you'll come in under the hole's radar,
729
01:03:26,813 --> 01:03:29,064
and over the range scanners.
730
01:03:29,190 --> 01:03:31,608
But, sir, you've got to go in
at exactly 4,800 feet.
731
01:03:31,734 --> 01:03:34,152
A foot either way, and it's all over.
732
01:03:34,278 --> 01:03:38,615
You're right, Colonel.
That's why we're using solid gold.
733
01:03:39,158 --> 01:03:40,659
Solid gold, sir?
734
01:03:40,785 --> 01:03:43,537
Once we get authorisation
from the White House, we attack.
735
01:03:43,663 --> 01:03:48,249
- Gold?
- Yeah... Gold.
736
01:03:49,001 --> 01:03:50,544
Good luck.
737
01:04:00,137 --> 01:04:01,471
Mr President?
738
01:04:04,433 --> 01:04:05,767
Mr President?
739
01:04:14,777 --> 01:04:18,071
Somebody once said
if it was an easyjob, they'd get a mule.
740
01:04:23,202 --> 01:04:28,123
I hope that, each of you
will express yourself freely.
741
01:04:29,917 --> 01:04:33,504
Nothing said by anybody
will ever get outside this room.
742
01:04:35,089 --> 01:04:36,464
I really mean that.
743
01:04:38,259 --> 01:04:39,593
Mike?
744
01:04:39,719 --> 01:04:41,637
There might be some military blunder,
745
01:04:41,763 --> 01:04:44,556
or a relatively unimportant axe
that Dell was grinding,
746
01:04:44,682 --> 01:04:49,645
but this, Christ...
General Crane?
748
01:04:51,313 --> 01:04:53,189
Well, it makes us look like idiots.
749
01:04:53,315 --> 01:04:56,151
I'll take that back.
You can live with idiots.
750
01:04:56,277 --> 01:04:59,404
It makes all of military
look criminally negligent.
751
01:05:00,322 --> 01:05:04,200
How will our people respond?
Could they take a joke like this?
752
01:05:05,077 --> 01:05:06,912
I don't know.
753
01:05:07,038 --> 01:05:10,582
- I really don't know.
- Ralph?
754
01:05:10,708 --> 01:05:16,087
Well, the CIA feels that
such disclosures would be disastrous.
755
01:05:16,213 --> 01:05:19,716
Under no circumstances
could we allow or want
756
01:05:19,842 --> 01:05:22,468
this material to ever be made public.
757
01:05:22,595 --> 01:05:26,389
Arthur,
what's the State Department's position?
758
01:05:26,974 --> 01:05:31,937
You will note that the action taken
that day was unanimously arrived at.
759
01:05:34,857 --> 01:05:36,191
Phil?
760
01:05:37,652 --> 01:05:40,153
I've been in the Corps all my life.
761
01:05:40,279 --> 01:05:41,697
I came up through the ranks.
762
01:05:42,907 --> 01:05:46,993
I've seen other men arise
to splendour in peace and war.
763
01:05:48,621 --> 01:05:51,790
I believe this country is great enough
to survive the truth.
764
01:05:54,502 --> 01:06:00,882
And maybe, just maybe, this could be
our last opportunity to trust our people.
765
01:06:02,301 --> 01:06:03,677
Thank you.
766
01:06:06,472 --> 01:06:09,516
Zach, what's on your mind?
767
01:06:12,436 --> 01:06:14,312
Listening to Phil, I was touched.
768
01:06:15,982 --> 01:06:19,735
Maybe we could do it.
Under different circumstances.
769
01:06:21,403 --> 01:06:23,446
With more preparation.
770
01:06:24,406 --> 01:06:27,450
But to broadcast this
with a gun to your head, Mr President...
771
01:06:28,661 --> 01:06:30,495
...that'd be a tragic mistake.
772
01:06:32,790 --> 01:06:35,542
- O'Rourke.
- It's me, Mike. Let me talk to Pete.
773
01:06:35,668 --> 01:06:39,004
- Yes, sir.
- Yeah, Mike.
774
01:06:39,130 --> 01:06:41,673
Operation Gold ready
whenever you are, Pete.
775
01:06:41,799 --> 01:06:43,174
I'll get back to you.
776
01:06:43,300 --> 01:06:46,595
Mackenzie's ready to go, Mr President.
We need your permission.
777
01:06:47,179 --> 01:06:50,932
Why does CINCSAC think he can get
his men in Silo 3 without being seen?
778
01:06:51,058 --> 01:06:54,352
Well, there's a blind spot
directly over their television cameras,
779
01:06:54,478 --> 01:06:56,396
and the chopper will go
right down on 'em.
780
01:06:56,523 --> 01:06:59,941
Once they get in, why can't they drop it
down the elevator shaft?
781
01:07:00,067 --> 01:07:03,820
Gentlemen, those concrete walls
in Silo 3 are eight-feet thick,
782
01:07:03,946 --> 01:07:05,947
heat-sensitive and steel-reinforced.
783
01:07:07,283 --> 01:07:11,703
We place it directly outside the door,
they'll be jelly in a millisecond.
784
01:07:11,829 --> 01:07:14,205
This weapon, what is it exactly?
785
01:07:14,999 --> 01:07:18,293
It's a miniature atomic bomb,
that's what it is.
786
01:07:18,419 --> 01:07:21,129
Yeah, that's essentially correct.
787
01:07:21,255 --> 01:07:23,423
A small, clean, nuclear device.
788
01:07:23,550 --> 01:07:25,341
What about radiation fallout?
789
01:07:26,343 --> 01:07:29,137
At 60 feet, minimal.
790
01:07:29,722 --> 01:07:31,056
Define "minimal".
791
01:07:31,683 --> 01:07:35,143
- Well...
- Acceptable?
792
01:07:36,646 --> 01:07:40,440
Acceptable to whom?
The people of Montana?
793
01:07:40,567 --> 01:07:44,611
Considering the gravity of the situation,
aren't we compelled to take this risk?
794
01:07:44,737 --> 01:07:46,112
Maybe.
795
01:07:47,865 --> 01:07:49,866
You might talk to Dell again.
796
01:07:49,992 --> 01:07:51,492
Who knows?
797
01:07:51,619 --> 01:07:57,082
Perhaps we can negotiate ourselves
out of a critical situation.
798
01:07:57,208 --> 01:07:59,751
- I agree.
- So do I.
799
01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:09,094
'Yes, sir? '
800
01:08:09,220 --> 01:08:11,137
Mildred, get me General Mackenzie
801
01:08:11,263 --> 01:08:15,517
at the Command Post at Malmstrom
for General Crane, please.
802
01:08:15,643 --> 01:08:16,977
'Yes, sir.'
803
01:08:20,189 --> 01:08:23,900
- Mackenzie.
- Hold up Operation Gold, Mac.
804
01:08:24,026 --> 01:08:26,778
- Pete, for Christ's sake...
- General Mackenzie!
805
01:08:26,904 --> 01:08:28,488
Yes, sir.
806
01:08:29,073 --> 01:08:31,658
Get Silo 3 again
for the President, please.
807
01:08:31,784 --> 01:08:33,201
'Right away, sir.'
808
01:08:37,582 --> 01:08:40,501
- Silo 3. Dell speaking.
- This is David Stevens.
809
01:08:41,293 --> 01:08:44,337
- Yes, Mr President?
- I'm prepared to make a counteroffer.
810
01:08:45,798 --> 01:08:50,969
- I'm listening.
- General Dell, you demanded $10 million.
811
01:08:51,095 --> 01:08:54,598
- Willing to raise the ante to $20 million.
- $20 million?
812
01:08:54,724 --> 01:08:59,686
I'll also grant a full pardon to you,
to Mr Powell and Mr Garvas for all crimes.
813
01:09:00,146 --> 01:09:03,940
This covers the crimes each of you have
been convicted and sent to prison for,
814
01:09:04,066 --> 01:09:06,652
and all crimes you may have
committed up to this date.
815
01:09:07,319 --> 01:09:12,073
In addition, I will personally
guarantee in writing safe transit
816
01:09:12,199 --> 01:09:14,450
to any country in the world
that you may choose.
817
01:09:14,577 --> 01:09:18,997
Mr President, I accept
your financial and travel of fers.
818
01:09:19,123 --> 01:09:22,333
But I must insist that you comply
with my final demand.
819
01:09:22,459 --> 01:09:28,464
General Dell, there's nothing that I would
like better than to wrap this up right now,
820
01:09:28,591 --> 01:09:31,927
but this office has certain limitations.
821
01:09:32,053 --> 01:09:33,804
I'm not free to do anything I want.
822
01:09:33,930 --> 01:09:36,807
If it were just up to me,
I would say fine.
823
01:09:37,684 --> 01:09:42,813
But it simply isn't feasible to make
this document public at this time.
824
01:09:43,856 --> 01:09:46,650
Mr President,
I'm not interested in waiting.
825
01:09:48,110 --> 01:09:50,195
Not for a month, a week or a day.
826
01:09:50,321 --> 01:09:52,573
There's simply no time left.
827
01:09:52,699 --> 01:09:55,450
The doctrine of presidential credibility,
828
01:09:55,577 --> 01:09:58,620
by which I mean the licence
to lie at home and abroad,
829
01:09:58,746 --> 01:10:03,041
killed hundreds and thousands of people in
a war that should never have been fought.
830
01:10:03,167 --> 01:10:05,586
This doctrine of credibility
single-handedly
831
01:10:05,712 --> 01:10:08,505
destroyed the real credibility
of our country.
832
01:10:08,631 --> 01:10:12,634
Instead of making us stronger,
it presented us as incompetent,
833
01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:16,638
indecisive, helpless,
to say nothing of dishonest.
834
01:10:17,348 --> 01:10:21,226
Mr President,
the devastation of Indochina,
835
01:10:21,352 --> 01:10:25,230
the countless deaths and sufferings
of an infinite number of people,
836
01:10:25,356 --> 01:10:27,983
the descent and unrest
of our own people here at home,
837
01:10:28,109 --> 01:10:31,027
these events born
out of a policy of secrecy,
838
01:10:31,153 --> 01:10:34,531
was the result of the treacherous
doctrine of credibility.
839
01:10:34,657 --> 01:10:36,199
I insist that the time is past due
840
01:10:36,325 --> 01:10:39,703
to eradicate this poison which
is killing our people and our country.
841
01:10:50,339 --> 01:10:51,882
You...
842
01:10:53,843 --> 01:10:56,845
...make a persuasive case,
General Dell.
843
01:10:58,515 --> 01:11:03,935
It's, obvious that
you are not only well informed,
844
01:11:04,061 --> 01:11:07,147
but, extremely articulate.
845
01:11:09,776 --> 01:11:15,989
However, I must respond
by saying there are... ramifications
846
01:11:16,115 --> 01:11:20,410
and... complexities here,
which even you are unaware of.
847
01:11:20,537 --> 01:11:23,288
I won't argue that point, Mr President,
848
01:11:23,414 --> 01:11:27,042
but the mothers and fathers
of boys who died for credibility
849
01:11:27,168 --> 01:11:28,710
are gonna rise up in fury.
850
01:11:28,836 --> 01:11:32,255
This purge is unavoidable,
and it must come now before it's too late.
851
01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:36,885
I'm sorry, Mr President,
but this item is non-negotiable.
852
01:12:01,828 --> 01:12:03,494
If I...
853
01:12:05,915 --> 01:12:07,666
...hear no objection...
854
01:12:10,419 --> 01:12:12,546
...we'll proceed with Operation Gold.
855
01:12:14,632 --> 01:12:17,008
Mackenzie.
856
01:12:17,594 --> 01:12:19,845
OK, Mac. It's your show.
857
01:12:20,638 --> 01:12:22,764
Thank you, General.
858
01:12:24,266 --> 01:12:26,059
We go.
859
01:12:27,269 --> 01:12:28,937
Chopper goes.
860
01:12:29,063 --> 01:12:31,022
Chopper goes.
861
01:12:33,109 --> 01:12:35,360
I wish to God I was up in that chopper.
862
01:12:35,486 --> 01:12:38,947
No kidding, I really do.
863
01:12:39,073 --> 01:12:42,200
Mackenzie.
864
01:12:42,326 --> 01:12:45,704
Chopper is airborne.
I repeat, chopper is airborne.
865
01:12:45,830 --> 01:12:47,539
Thank you, Major.
866
01:12:48,290 --> 01:12:49,875
Chopper airborne.
867
01:12:51,335 --> 01:12:54,755
Major Fitz, begin your attack.
868
01:12:55,590 --> 01:12:58,550
I repeat, begin your attack.
869
01:13:39,717 --> 01:13:43,094
President's talking
20-million bucks...
870
01:13:43,220 --> 01:13:45,471
You'll get what you want.
I'll get what I want.
871
01:13:45,598 --> 01:13:48,684
Fuck you and the flag, man.
I ain't interested in that shit.
872
01:13:48,810 --> 01:13:52,103
General, look, be reasonable.
Didn't you hear what he had to say?
873
01:13:52,229 --> 01:13:54,898
He don't give a rat's ass
about the money. We won!
874
01:13:55,024 --> 01:13:57,108
Let me make one thing clear
to you men.
875
01:13:58,027 --> 01:14:02,155
Either we're all going out winners,
or we're not going out at all. Understood?
876
01:14:20,007 --> 01:14:21,717
What are we looking at now, Pete?
877
01:14:21,843 --> 01:14:24,427
On the left,
the TV camera on one of the tanks.
878
01:14:24,554 --> 01:14:26,722
On the right,
the TV camera on the chopper.
879
01:14:26,848 --> 01:14:29,600
You can see exactly what's happening.
880
01:14:42,614 --> 01:14:44,322
Hey, they brought up tanks.
881
01:14:55,835 --> 01:14:58,128
How's that
for your Presidential credibility?
882
01:14:58,254 --> 01:15:00,756
It looks like General Patten coming down.
883
01:15:00,882 --> 01:15:02,716
They're gonna blow us up now!
884
01:15:04,636 --> 01:15:06,302
Get me Mackenzie.
885
01:15:08,014 --> 01:15:09,848
We're on the 50-yard line.
886
01:15:09,974 --> 01:15:11,975
Yeah, we're in the middle of this game.
887
01:15:12,810 --> 01:15:14,144
Unbelievable.
888
01:15:20,484 --> 01:15:23,236
Let'sjust hope
we can fool General Dell.
889
01:15:26,365 --> 01:15:28,241
- Well done.
- Thank you, General.
890
01:15:28,826 --> 01:15:30,619
My God.
891
01:15:30,745 --> 01:15:34,540
They're coming up.
Hey, General, you do that?
892
01:15:40,462 --> 01:15:43,006
- Red phone. Silo 3.
- Jesus Christ.
893
01:15:43,132 --> 01:15:45,050
Mackenzie.
894
01:15:46,052 --> 01:15:49,555
Mackenzie, you miserable son of a bitch!
895
01:15:49,681 --> 01:15:52,683
- What's the matter, Dell?
- What are you doing? Are you crazy?
896
01:15:52,809 --> 01:15:54,935
I don't know what you're talking about.
897
01:15:55,061 --> 01:16:00,065
I'm talking about ten APCs and
a TV tank rolling across the front yard!
898
01:16:02,484 --> 01:16:05,486
- Mackenzie at Malmstrom.
- Mackenzie.
899
01:16:05,613 --> 01:16:08,406
Mac, for Christ's sake, take a look.
He's got the keys.
900
01:16:08,533 --> 01:16:11,993
Come on. Take it easy.
I tell you, he's bluffing.
901
01:16:12,119 --> 01:16:14,663
He doesn't need the keys to open,
only to launch.
902
01:16:14,789 --> 01:16:17,457
- Mackenzie's right.
- Hold on, will you, Dell?
903
01:16:17,584 --> 01:16:19,375
- Bullshit.
- I'm in Omaha.
904
01:16:19,502 --> 01:16:22,796
I don't know what those idiots
are doing up in Montana.
905
01:16:22,922 --> 01:16:24,798
I got Malmstrom on the other line.
906
01:16:24,924 --> 01:16:26,925
Give me a chance to find out
what's going on.
907
01:16:27,051 --> 01:16:29,010
You're a goddamn liar!
908
01:16:31,097 --> 01:16:33,890
Cease attack.
I repeat, cease attack.
909
01:16:42,525 --> 01:16:46,945
- They're stopping.
- I called them off. No reason to launch.
910
01:16:47,071 --> 01:16:49,405
I always knew you were arrogant,
but not insane.
911
01:16:49,532 --> 01:16:52,492
Leave those vehicles where they are
and get the men out.
912
01:16:52,619 --> 01:16:55,537
If those aren't out in ten seconds,
I launch.
913
01:16:55,663 --> 01:16:59,040
- One, two...
- 'Solid Gold chopper is in place.'
914
01:16:59,166 --> 01:17:04,713
- All crews abandon vehicles.
- All crews abandon vehicles immediately.
915
01:17:04,839 --> 01:17:08,133
It's being done, Dell.
The crews will be out in a few seconds.
916
01:17:09,886 --> 01:17:13,764
- That oughta teach you something, Mac.
- Always willing to learn, Dell.
917
01:17:22,023 --> 01:17:23,982
That camera I see!
918
01:17:24,734 --> 01:17:26,109
Come on!
919
01:17:27,153 --> 01:17:29,696
You know, I thought
I was gonna piss in my pants.
920
01:17:29,822 --> 01:17:34,660
150 guys against three! No!
921
01:17:34,786 --> 01:17:38,413
General Dell, I'm with you.
Forget Powell.
922
01:17:39,749 --> 01:17:42,876
'General, Operation Gold
proceeding according to plan.
923
01:17:43,002 --> 01:17:45,587
- 'Troops are running to the woods.'
- Perfect, Major.
924
01:17:45,713 --> 01:17:49,007
As soon as our men hit the trees,
conclude your descent from chopper.
925
01:18:13,825 --> 01:18:16,409
- Are you guys ready?
- All set.
926
01:18:22,709 --> 01:18:24,585
Let's go.
927
01:18:29,048 --> 01:18:30,882
All right! Go!
928
01:19:09,338 --> 01:19:11,006
Easy. Take it easy.
929
01:19:42,038 --> 01:19:44,205
Haul her away!
930
01:20:39,762 --> 01:20:41,555
Easy with that box.
931
01:20:41,681 --> 01:20:43,849
Don't worry! I'm checking the left.
932
01:20:45,685 --> 01:20:47,728
Watch the cameras.
933
01:20:51,023 --> 01:20:54,275
And halt. Here it comes again.
934
01:21:00,992 --> 01:21:03,409
OK, let's go, let's go, let's go.
935
01:21:10,668 --> 01:21:12,002
Down!
936
01:21:27,894 --> 01:21:30,020
Take it easy. Easy.
937
01:21:44,577 --> 01:21:47,037
Watch those steps. You're gonna trip.
938
01:21:47,163 --> 01:21:49,581
For goodness' sake, let's get inside.
939
01:21:57,549 --> 01:21:58,882
It's clear.
940
01:22:04,847 --> 01:22:08,809
- Well, at least they got in safely.
- First stage worked.
941
01:22:08,935 --> 01:22:11,937
The beginning of the end of mankind.
942
01:22:12,063 --> 01:22:14,105
In graphic black and white.
943
01:22:15,149 --> 01:22:18,527
Heads up. Once we leave this place,
there'll be little conversation.
944
01:22:18,653 --> 01:22:21,154
If anybody wants to make a speech,
this is the place.
945
01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:24,324
What's the matter?
The funeral's called off.
946
01:22:24,450 --> 01:22:25,867
Why?
947
01:22:25,993 --> 01:22:27,619
Let's go, let's go?
948
01:22:27,745 --> 01:22:30,038
What are you doing...?
949
01:22:31,874 --> 01:22:35,627
- Why bring up the tanks...
- Come on, come on. Let's go.
950
01:22:35,753 --> 01:22:37,295
...and not use them?
951
01:22:38,923 --> 01:22:40,465
A diversionary attack?
952
01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:44,094
A diversion from what?
953
01:22:44,220 --> 01:22:47,472
Maybe their tankjockey
jumped off on his own.
954
01:22:47,599 --> 01:22:49,933
I bet they kick his ass real good.
955
01:22:50,059 --> 01:22:51,476
Preparing to descend, sir.
956
01:22:51,603 --> 01:22:57,398
They're beginning their descent
down the elevator shaft.
957
01:22:59,944 --> 01:23:03,739
- Tell 'em to hold all incoming calls.
- Hold all incoming calls.
958
01:23:12,540 --> 01:23:13,957
Damn mission.
959
01:24:17,522 --> 01:24:20,732
That's it. Watch that cable, Willie.
960
01:24:20,858 --> 01:24:23,318
You're bouncing against it. Watch it.
961
01:24:25,613 --> 01:24:27,322
That's it.
962
01:24:39,877 --> 01:24:41,503
That's it, that's it.
963
01:24:41,629 --> 01:24:44,047
That's it. Yeah. Put it down.
964
01:24:52,640 --> 01:24:56,977
Come on, Jerry. Hurry up.
I can't hold on to this much longer.
965
01:25:14,161 --> 01:25:17,163
Put it down. It's not that long now.
966
01:25:17,289 --> 01:25:19,332
OK, OK. Come on. OK.
967
01:25:19,458 --> 01:25:22,335
- How's your feet?
- Fine. I'm fine. OK.
968
01:25:25,507 --> 01:25:26,840
- Are you good?
- Yeah.
969
01:25:26,966 --> 01:25:28,383
OK. I'm running in.
970
01:25:43,733 --> 01:25:45,108
OK, come on.
971
01:25:48,112 --> 01:25:49,946
Come on, Handel.
972
01:25:52,408 --> 01:25:54,200
- Got it?
- Go.
973
01:25:55,662 --> 01:25:57,287
Let it go, let it go.
974
01:26:05,797 --> 01:26:07,213
That's all right.
975
01:26:10,134 --> 01:26:11,885
Jesus Christ.
976
01:26:32,281 --> 01:26:36,159
Descent completed, sir.
We're starting down the tunnel now.
977
01:26:36,285 --> 01:26:41,247
- They are now in the outer control room.
- Descent is now complete.
978
01:26:42,374 --> 01:26:44,960
They're now
in the outer control room.
979
01:26:48,297 --> 01:26:49,631
OK. Easy.
980
01:26:49,757 --> 01:26:53,134
These goddamn TV controls
probably don't even work.
981
01:26:55,054 --> 01:26:56,888
OK.
982
01:26:57,014 --> 01:27:00,433
- You're shaking the box.
- I'm not shaking it! You're shaking it.
983
01:27:03,646 --> 01:27:05,271
You can't even gauge?
984
01:27:06,691 --> 01:27:09,776
- They can't hear us, can they?
- Are you kidding?
985
01:27:09,902 --> 01:27:11,903
Just look at that door.
986
01:27:25,167 --> 01:27:27,210
We're at the door now, sir.
987
01:27:36,137 --> 01:27:39,848
They think they're fooling
with a bunch of kids?
988
01:27:46,689 --> 01:27:48,607
There's no way in
without being seen.
989
01:27:51,318 --> 01:27:53,278
Maybe they're convinced
we mean business.
990
01:27:53,404 --> 01:27:54,696
They're up to something.
991
01:27:58,910 --> 01:28:00,243
I can feel it.
992
01:28:03,122 --> 01:28:08,251
- The floor slopes.
- Wait. Maybe I can fix it.
993
01:28:12,715 --> 01:28:14,340
That's it.
994
01:29:04,100 --> 01:29:06,935
Detonator ready. Timer ready.
995
01:29:18,072 --> 01:29:19,906
Do you read me, sir?
996
01:29:20,032 --> 01:29:22,075
Detonator ready. Timer ready.
997
01:29:22,201 --> 01:29:26,162
Detonator ready. Timer ready.
998
01:29:26,288 --> 01:29:27,831
Detonator ready, timer ready.
999
01:29:31,002 --> 01:29:33,670
OK, check the balance.
1000
01:29:37,466 --> 01:29:41,219
Gold has blown!
I repeat, Gold has blown!
1001
01:29:41,345 --> 01:29:44,014
General, what do we do?
We're ready to go!
1002
01:29:44,140 --> 01:29:45,557
Turn that key!
1003
01:29:48,310 --> 01:29:50,979
- We're ready to go!
- Turn on the count of three!
1004
01:29:51,105 --> 01:29:54,232
One, two, three...
1005
01:30:04,076 --> 01:30:08,163
What the hell is that?
1006
01:30:08,289 --> 01:30:14,210
Mackenzie, we've launched!
55 seconds and counting.
1007
01:30:22,303 --> 01:30:25,221
'Jesus Christ.
It looks like the doors of hell.
1008
01:30:26,057 --> 01:30:27,891
'I never thought it would end like this.'
1009
01:30:28,017 --> 01:30:31,477
- Well?
- You asshole! Dell's bluffing?
1010
01:30:31,604 --> 01:30:33,689
He doesn't have the keys?
He can't launch?
1011
01:30:33,815 --> 01:30:36,107
Tell me those aren't fucking missiles!
1012
01:30:39,571 --> 01:30:41,446
General Mackenzie, what do we do?
1013
01:30:41,573 --> 01:30:44,533
Request permission to go, goddamn it.
They can do it!
1014
01:30:44,659 --> 01:30:47,118
Hold on, boy, goddamn it.
Stay where you are.
1015
01:30:47,244 --> 01:30:49,996
Mackenzie wants permission to fire,
Mr President.
1016
01:30:50,122 --> 01:30:52,207
- Mike, are you there?
- 'Here! '
1017
01:31:46,763 --> 01:31:48,096
33...
1018
01:31:56,147 --> 01:31:58,815
Goddamn it, Mike!
Give me the order.
1019
01:31:58,941 --> 01:32:02,611
- General, what do we do?
- Give the order to fire!
1020
01:32:10,578 --> 01:32:12,663
Mr President, do something!
1021
01:32:13,497 --> 01:32:16,249
Do you hear, boy?
Don't run out on me now.
1022
01:32:16,375 --> 01:32:27,218
31, 30, 29, 28, 27, 26, 25, 24,
1024
01:32:27,344 --> 01:32:41,692
23, 22, 21, 20, 19,
18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13,
1027
01:32:41,818 --> 01:32:45,862
12, 11, 10...
1028
01:32:54,038 --> 01:32:56,039
Out!
1029
01:32:56,958 --> 01:32:58,542
The box! The box!
1030
01:33:04,549 --> 01:33:06,049
Come on, come on.
1031
01:33:12,974 --> 01:33:14,600
Come on!
1032
01:33:17,562 --> 01:33:19,229
Let's go. Come on.
1033
01:33:20,314 --> 01:33:22,941
Come on, let's go, let's go.
1034
01:33:25,486 --> 01:33:27,237
Come on.
1035
01:33:38,791 --> 01:33:40,709
Mackenzie.
1036
01:33:40,835 --> 01:33:44,838
The countdown stopped at eight.
Next time, they go.
1037
01:33:51,721 --> 01:33:53,639
Close the silos.
1038
01:34:07,862 --> 01:34:09,445
Drag him into the other room.
1039
01:34:10,740 --> 01:34:12,198
Tie him up.
1040
01:34:20,207 --> 01:34:22,208
Time is running out, gentlemen.
1041
01:34:24,336 --> 01:34:26,630
Somebody better come up
with a solution.
1042
01:34:28,215 --> 01:34:32,678
That man is double-talking you,
frontwards and backwards.
1043
01:34:32,804 --> 01:34:35,639
While you're talkingjustice,
he's calling up the armour.
1044
01:34:36,808 --> 01:34:39,851
And we don't know
what those cats left behind that door,
1045
01:34:39,977 --> 01:34:41,520
and I, for one, don't wanna know.
1046
01:34:41,646 --> 01:34:46,942
It was Mackenzie. Bastard convinced
the President he could blow us out of here.
1047
01:34:47,068 --> 01:34:49,820
- Bullshit!
- The President is not a liar.
1048
01:34:49,946 --> 01:34:51,404
Double-bullshit!
1049
01:34:51,531 --> 01:34:53,865
They pressured him.
1050
01:34:55,034 --> 01:34:58,244
Military always thinks they can solve
everything with firepower.
1051
01:35:09,716 --> 01:35:11,382
Unbelievable.
1052
01:35:12,635 --> 01:35:15,637
I'm reading it for the tenth time,
and I still don't believe it.
1053
01:35:18,766 --> 01:35:22,310
Gentlemen,
can I have your attention, please?
1054
01:35:22,436 --> 01:35:24,855
There's something
I want to read you out loud.
1055
01:35:24,981 --> 01:35:28,358
You all have your own photographed
copies. You can follow me.
1056
01:35:28,484 --> 01:35:30,819
Page two, paragraph three.
1057
01:35:32,029 --> 01:35:33,655
About the middle of the page.
1058
01:35:35,116 --> 01:35:37,367
- You got it?
- Yes.
1059
01:35:38,369 --> 01:35:40,161
The President is speaking.
1060
01:35:44,458 --> 01:35:47,836
"Are you gentlemen telling me
that more boys are going to die?"
1061
01:35:50,422 --> 01:35:52,340
The response is "yes".
1062
01:35:53,217 --> 01:35:54,926
Again, the President.
1063
01:35:55,970 --> 01:35:58,263
"And these deaths
will be totally in vain?"
1064
01:36:00,808 --> 01:36:02,976
Again, the response is "yes".
1065
01:36:03,102 --> 01:36:04,603
Again, the President.
1066
01:36:06,105 --> 01:36:08,565
"No territory will be gained."
1067
01:36:08,691 --> 01:36:10,734
"There's no hope of winning,"
1068
01:36:10,860 --> 01:36:13,278
"and we have no chance
of defeating the enemy?"
1069
01:36:13,404 --> 01:36:16,823
The response is "yes".
1070
01:36:18,743 --> 01:36:20,786
And now we come to the big one.
1071
01:36:20,912 --> 01:36:25,415
The President says, and I quote...
1072
01:36:26,876 --> 01:36:29,419
"You men are telling me
that the objective of this war"
1073
01:36:29,546 --> 01:36:33,590
"is to demonstrate to the Russians
a brutal national will"
1074
01:36:33,716 --> 01:36:37,343
"that we have the willingness
to inflict and suffer untold punishment,"
1075
01:36:38,596 --> 01:36:41,347
"and no matter what the cost
to American blood,"
1076
01:36:41,473 --> 01:36:44,434
"we would perpetuate
a theatrical holocaust?"
1077
01:36:44,561 --> 01:36:48,730
And all for, for, for... credibility.
1078
01:36:50,357 --> 01:36:53,443
Gentlemen, let me tell you right now,
1079
01:36:53,570 --> 01:36:56,988
if this was the attitude of the American
leadership in this country...
1080
01:36:58,240 --> 01:36:59,950
...then I am...
1081
01:37:06,958 --> 01:37:10,836
Arthur, what in the name of
the Holy Father were you thinking of?
1082
01:37:10,962 --> 01:37:12,713
You attended. How did it happen?
1083
01:37:12,839 --> 01:37:16,550
It happened because this country
needed a foreign policy
1084
01:37:16,676 --> 01:37:21,096
that took into account
the implications of nuclear weapons.
1085
01:37:23,850 --> 01:37:25,183
In simpler words,
1086
01:37:25,309 --> 01:37:29,187
because of the unprecedented
destructive effect of those weapons,
1087
01:37:29,313 --> 01:37:33,567
all-out war became known
as counterproductive.
1088
01:37:33,693 --> 01:37:38,321
Mr President, the consensus was,
or still is, as far as I know,
1089
01:37:38,447 --> 01:37:43,409
that we had to fight limited wars
to prevent the nuclear wars.
1090
01:37:43,536 --> 01:37:47,038
Well, let's not forget
what Hitler and Stalin did in Spain.
1091
01:37:47,164 --> 01:37:50,083
They were both ready to fight
right down to the last Spaniard.
1092
01:37:50,209 --> 01:37:53,879
Ralph, are you comparing
Vietnam to Hitler?
1093
01:37:54,005 --> 01:37:56,422
I think, I-I think what Ralph means
1094
01:37:56,549 --> 01:37:59,510
is that, since nuclear war
1095
01:37:59,636 --> 01:38:05,140
would literally destroy what
we euphemistically call civilisation,
1096
01:38:05,266 --> 01:38:06,642
we faced a dilemma.
1097
01:38:06,768 --> 01:38:10,186
We had to convince the Russians
that we meant business,
1098
01:38:10,312 --> 01:38:13,524
no matter how unmotivated
our actions appear.
1099
01:38:13,650 --> 01:38:16,484
Our only option was
to show the Russians
1100
01:38:16,611 --> 01:38:19,029
that we would go all the way.
1101
01:38:20,782 --> 01:38:26,161
Didn't anybody ever express
the opinion that such a posture
1102
01:38:26,287 --> 01:38:31,583
was not only immoral, but homicidal,
1103
01:38:31,709 --> 01:38:33,334
to say nothing of suicidal?
1104
01:38:35,797 --> 01:38:39,049
And that, Mr President,
is blood over the dam.
1105
01:38:41,302 --> 01:38:42,678
So...
1106
01:38:43,680 --> 01:38:49,059
...we killed and maimed
over a million people.
1107
01:38:50,019 --> 01:38:54,064
Not for military or territorial or diplomatic
reasons, but to prove we're inhuman.
1108
01:38:54,190 --> 01:38:57,025
Not exactly.
Not exactly, Mr President.
1109
01:38:57,151 --> 01:39:00,028
The objective was to prove
that we were capable
1110
01:39:00,154 --> 01:39:02,739
of inhuman acts.
1111
01:39:03,324 --> 01:39:05,784
Thank you, Arthur,
for that fine distinction.
1112
01:39:06,452 --> 01:39:12,332
Hoping, of course, that this knowledge
would inhibit the Russians' plans
1113
01:39:12,458 --> 01:39:13,792
for world takeover.
1114
01:39:13,918 --> 01:39:18,379
- I see.
- You mustn't take this personally.
1115
01:39:18,506 --> 01:39:20,882
We were forced into this
with the Soviet Union.
1116
01:39:21,008 --> 01:39:23,594
It's a game.
They play the game, we play the game.
1117
01:39:23,720 --> 01:39:26,722
It's the way business has been
conducted since, what, 1945.
1118
01:39:26,848 --> 01:39:28,849
All presidents have had to do it.
1119
01:39:28,975 --> 01:39:31,893
Their missiles removed from Cuba,
we pull ours out of Turkey.
1120
01:39:34,814 --> 01:39:37,649
That's... that's terrific, Ralph.
That'sjust great.
1121
01:39:37,775 --> 01:39:40,193
So I'll just get up on national television,
1122
01:39:40,319 --> 01:39:44,155
and tell the American people
it's all cold, calculated gamesmanship!
1123
01:39:54,667 --> 01:39:56,251
Jesus Christ.
1124
01:39:58,295 --> 01:40:00,881
Aren't any of you aware
of what's going on outside?
1125
01:40:03,175 --> 01:40:05,719
This country still hasn't
recovered from Vietnam!
1126
01:40:05,845 --> 01:40:07,387
It ripped us apart!
1127
01:40:08,389 --> 01:40:10,348
Soldiers died fighting it!
1128
01:40:13,603 --> 01:40:15,604
Kids died protesting it.
1129
01:40:17,857 --> 01:40:19,608
And what am I
supposed to do next time?
1130
01:40:20,902 --> 01:40:26,615
Get up on TV and tell them
it's all a PR gimmick?
1131
01:40:27,575 --> 01:40:29,159
To prove to our friends in Moscow
1132
01:40:29,285 --> 01:40:33,121
that I'm capable of pushing
the nuclear button if they push me?
1133
01:41:04,445 --> 01:41:07,989
Zach, I'd like to hear from you.
1134
01:41:09,992 --> 01:41:11,785
Well, Mr President,
1135
01:41:11,911 --> 01:41:16,289
we've had nuclear weapons
for over 35 years now.
1136
01:41:17,416 --> 01:41:21,670
And in all that time, we've never had
a comprehensive policy,
1137
01:41:21,796 --> 01:41:23,672
governing their use.
1138
01:41:23,798 --> 01:41:27,884
Neither have the Russians, Chinese,
French, Israelis, or anybody else.
1139
01:41:29,345 --> 01:41:35,183
The world has simply never dealt
with this explosive problem.
1140
01:41:37,269 --> 01:41:40,063
It's a dilemma without a solution.
1141
01:41:40,189 --> 01:41:42,148
A paradox without an answer.
1142
01:41:42,274 --> 01:41:44,275
I certainly don't have one.
1143
01:41:44,401 --> 01:41:48,614
If I did, I'd be living here, and you'd
be running the Defence Department.
1144
01:41:53,703 --> 01:41:57,455
Mr President, ever since Hiroshima,
1145
01:41:57,582 --> 01:42:01,084
through six different administrations,
1146
01:42:01,210 --> 01:42:04,880
our national security has
been defined by two words:
1147
01:42:05,006 --> 01:42:06,965
Limited war.
1148
01:42:08,217 --> 01:42:12,513
35 years ago, we had an opportunity
to explain this to the American people.
1149
01:42:12,639 --> 01:42:14,097
It didn't happen.
1150
01:42:15,182 --> 01:42:19,352
They still, to this day,
don't understand the realities.
1151
01:42:19,478 --> 01:42:22,063
And why should they?
Nobody ever explained it to them.
1152
01:42:24,025 --> 01:42:27,402
It's apparent
we have the opportunity again.
1153
01:42:29,071 --> 01:42:33,784
General Dell demands
that we enlighten the public.
1154
01:42:33,910 --> 01:42:36,662
That we do it today
before the sun goes down.
1155
01:42:36,788 --> 01:42:39,706
And he's putting countless lives
where his mouth is.
1156
01:42:40,542 --> 01:42:42,167
Who knows...
1157
01:42:44,045 --> 01:42:46,379
...if this incident were ever
to be revealed,
1158
01:42:48,007 --> 01:42:52,803
historians might consider General Dell
some kind of modern messiah.
1159
01:42:54,096 --> 01:42:56,890
He not only believes
that Judgement Day is here,
1160
01:42:57,809 --> 01:43:01,144
but he threatens a terrible wrath
1161
01:43:01,270 --> 01:43:05,023
if we don't make what he considers
the right choice.
1162
01:43:11,155 --> 01:43:13,114
Do you think he's right?
1163
01:43:14,784 --> 01:43:19,079
I mean, correct in how
he perceives the world?
1164
01:43:20,039 --> 01:43:22,082
He may very well be.
1165
01:43:23,668 --> 01:43:27,838
But this is hardly the moment for me
to either preach open government,
1166
01:43:27,964 --> 01:43:31,091
or to lobby for the imperial presidency.
1167
01:43:34,011 --> 01:43:36,012
Thank you, sir.
1168
01:43:43,938 --> 01:43:47,273
Zach, how do you define
the issue clearly?
1169
01:43:51,320 --> 01:43:53,739
How are we going to have
open government?
1170
01:43:55,491 --> 01:43:58,076
Or are we going to continue
to rule in the dark?
1171
01:44:00,329 --> 01:44:01,955
Often by deceit.
1172
01:44:04,041 --> 01:44:06,835
I simply don't think
the State Department
1173
01:44:06,961 --> 01:44:09,921
could operate in that climate.
1174
01:44:10,757 --> 01:44:13,383
The same for the CIA.
1175
01:44:13,510 --> 01:44:16,887
The damage to the military
would be irreparable.
1176
01:44:17,013 --> 01:44:19,389
Over a period of years,
1177
01:44:19,516 --> 01:44:24,185
a gradual disclosure of some
of these facts may be made.
1178
01:44:24,311 --> 01:44:27,147
You think General Dell will wait that long?
1179
01:44:27,273 --> 01:44:28,940
Mr President...
1180
01:44:30,067 --> 01:44:33,737
...naturally, we can't allow this man
1181
01:44:33,863 --> 01:44:37,574
to launch nine nuclear missiles.
1182
01:44:39,160 --> 01:44:41,870
It's become clear, at least to me...
1183
01:44:43,414 --> 01:44:46,124
...that the consensus
around this table is that...
1184
01:44:47,710 --> 01:44:50,003
...we do not go public.
1185
01:44:50,129 --> 01:44:54,132
I'm not sure General Dell offered us
a third option, or did I miss something?
1186
01:44:57,136 --> 01:44:59,596
I think what they're saying,
Mr President,
1187
01:44:59,722 --> 01:45:02,599
is that you will have to go to Montana,
1188
01:45:02,725 --> 01:45:05,644
and that protective measures
will have to be taken.
1189
01:45:07,146 --> 01:45:10,315
Once General Dell
has evacuated Silo 3.
1190
01:45:21,077 --> 01:45:22,869
You're saying if...
1191
01:45:25,873 --> 01:45:27,916
...a possibility exists that...
1192
01:45:30,545 --> 01:45:32,420
What you're saying is if...
1193
01:45:35,341 --> 01:45:37,676
...I go to Montana...
1194
01:45:40,346 --> 01:45:41,972
...I could be...
1195
01:45:45,727 --> 01:45:47,435
...killed.
1196
01:45:49,230 --> 01:45:51,773
There's always that possibility,
Mr President.
1197
01:45:53,400 --> 01:45:56,653
I would be glad to call this man,
and offer to take your place.
1198
01:46:11,503 --> 01:46:16,464
Well, that's... that's... outrageous!
1199
01:46:17,759 --> 01:46:22,345
Gentlemen, I've no intention of being
sacrificed for the sins of others.
1200
01:46:22,471 --> 01:46:23,805
Period!
1201
01:46:56,923 --> 01:46:58,464
Think we ought to shove him out?
1202
01:46:58,591 --> 01:47:01,259
Drag him in the other room,
if you want to.
1203
01:47:02,428 --> 01:47:05,889
But that door doesn't open
till the President's on the elevator.
1204
01:47:06,724 --> 01:47:10,060
You know, the wife did
that painting when she was only 20.
1205
01:47:13,565 --> 01:47:15,607
She did that one the following year.
1206
01:47:18,778 --> 01:47:20,946
She might've been a really fine painter.
1207
01:47:36,003 --> 01:47:37,420
O'Rourke.
1208
01:47:43,094 --> 01:47:45,971
Is the President interested
in seeing a movie this evening?
1209
01:47:46,097 --> 01:47:48,306
No, I... I don't think so.
1210
01:47:48,432 --> 01:47:50,475
Why don't you try us tomorrow?
1211
01:47:55,732 --> 01:47:58,316
They got a great murder mystery.
You wanna see it?
1212
01:47:58,442 --> 01:48:00,986
No, I'm thinking about my own murder.
1213
01:48:02,530 --> 01:48:05,406
"I don't think so.
Why don't you try us tomorrow night?"
1214
01:48:05,533 --> 01:48:07,622
Why d'you think
I'll be twitching tomorrow night?
1215
01:48:07,660 --> 01:48:09,953
Cos you were born lucky, that's why.
1216
01:48:10,079 --> 01:48:12,539
Right on, as my daughter says.
1217
01:48:12,665 --> 01:48:16,209
Hey, now, that's my drink. You make
your own fucking drink. Come on.
1218
01:48:20,214 --> 01:48:24,050
You got elected, didn't you?
Tell me that wasn't luck.
1219
01:48:27,972 --> 01:48:29,890
A lousy convention hadn't deadlocked,
1220
01:48:30,016 --> 01:48:33,476
you'd still be living on Lake Michigan,
instead of the Potomac River.
1221
01:48:33,603 --> 01:48:35,020
Come on, that's history.
1222
01:48:49,952 --> 01:48:54,540
What am I gonna do? Those pricks
down there are trying to bury me.
1223
01:48:58,460 --> 01:49:00,504
I can see you're gonna be a big help!
1224
01:49:06,761 --> 01:49:08,344
You know, I'm no hero, but...
1225
01:49:09,889 --> 01:49:13,892
...I don't think I'd mind so much if I were
responsible, but I wasn't even here.
1226
01:49:14,476 --> 01:49:18,104
Same difference. Getting shot,
it's unpleasant for everybody, you know.
1227
01:49:26,698 --> 01:49:28,824
I hired every one of those assholes.
1228
01:49:28,950 --> 01:49:31,201
They don't have enough guts
to look me in the eye.
1229
01:49:31,869 --> 01:49:35,539
Except Guthrie.
That old bastard never flinched.
1230
01:49:35,665 --> 01:49:37,415
Yeah.
1231
01:49:43,715 --> 01:49:45,799
It's a lousy goddamn break.
1232
01:49:45,925 --> 01:49:48,426
Come on, David,
for Christ's sake!
1233
01:49:48,553 --> 01:49:52,180
It's got nothing to do with luck,
or breaks or the assholes downstairs!
1234
01:49:52,306 --> 01:49:54,641
It's who you are. It is the job.
1235
01:49:54,767 --> 01:49:56,977
It goes with the territory.
1236
01:49:57,103 --> 01:50:00,355
You're the fucking President!
Nobody else is gonna take your place!
1237
01:50:00,481 --> 01:50:04,025
Who are you gonna send? Me?
Anybody down there?
1238
01:50:04,151 --> 01:50:07,487
Eisenhower? Shall we get him
on the phone? Dig him up?
1239
01:50:09,699 --> 01:50:11,533
You don't get it, do you?
1240
01:50:13,327 --> 01:50:15,829
Has it ever occurred to you
I may be scared shitless?
1241
01:50:15,955 --> 01:50:18,915
Of course you're scared!
Who wouldn't be?
1242
01:50:19,041 --> 01:50:20,166
So?
1243
01:50:20,292 --> 01:50:25,380
So, in the immortal words of
Harry Houdini: "The buck stops here."
1244
01:50:48,404 --> 01:50:52,448
Forget right, wrong, justice,
or any of that bullshit.
1245
01:50:52,575 --> 01:50:54,826
You live here, you gotta go!
1246
01:50:55,620 --> 01:51:01,833
Like, you said, "Urrr, outrageous,
that's it... Period." Slam.
1247
01:51:02,669 --> 01:51:06,087
Urrr! Asshole.
1248
01:51:30,321 --> 01:51:31,905
You prick!
1249
01:51:32,865 --> 01:51:36,618
You're the worst!
I should've dumped you years ago.
1250
01:51:37,328 --> 01:51:38,662
Yes, sir.
1251
01:51:47,672 --> 01:51:49,506
To hell with it.
1252
01:51:51,884 --> 01:51:56,096
- Nobody lives forever, right?
- Right, Mr President.
1253
01:52:05,439 --> 01:52:06,857
Gentlemen...
1254
01:52:21,831 --> 01:52:25,000
Gentlemen, please be seated.
Thank you, Mr Willard.
1255
01:52:28,462 --> 01:52:29,838
Gentlemen...
1256
01:52:31,966 --> 01:52:34,635
...this has been a difficult day
for all of us.
1257
01:52:34,761 --> 01:52:36,803
It's not over yet.
1258
01:52:38,014 --> 01:52:41,600
There are a number of things that have
to be done, and the sooner, the better.
1259
01:52:42,935 --> 01:52:45,436
- Where's the Vice President?
- He's in Atlanta.
1260
01:52:46,147 --> 01:52:50,316
I want him in the White House before
Air Force One touches down in Montana.
1261
01:52:50,442 --> 01:52:53,820
Now, if necessary,
each of you will do your best
1262
01:52:53,946 --> 01:52:56,532
to make the transfer of power
as smooth as possible.
1263
01:52:57,491 --> 01:53:02,078
What we've witnessed today
makes me understand
1264
01:53:02,204 --> 01:53:06,499
that the United States can't afford
to maintain its present direction.
1265
01:53:08,586 --> 01:53:11,462
The time has come
for this government
1266
01:53:11,589 --> 01:53:13,924
to make a declaration
to the American people,
1267
01:53:14,050 --> 01:53:16,843
to take them into its confidence,
to explain to them
1268
01:53:16,969 --> 01:53:20,096
what has actually taken place
since the end of World War II.
1269
01:53:22,517 --> 01:53:23,850
In this country...
1270
01:53:25,687 --> 01:53:30,106
...the people must have a right
to control their own destinies,
1271
01:53:30,232 --> 01:53:32,067
whatever the problems are.
1272
01:53:33,319 --> 01:53:35,320
They have a right.
1273
01:53:36,906 --> 01:53:41,785
And we have an obligation
to trust them.
1274
01:53:50,503 --> 01:53:51,878
Zach...
1275
01:53:54,716 --> 01:53:57,801
...you and I have known each other
a few short years,
1276
01:53:57,927 --> 01:54:00,887
and we have disagreed many times.
1277
01:54:03,558 --> 01:54:05,517
If I'm unable...
1278
01:54:10,189 --> 01:54:14,610
...two weeks after the inauguration
of the new president,
1279
01:54:14,736 --> 01:54:18,446
I want you to promise to go on national
television and release that document.
1280
01:54:22,577 --> 01:54:24,703
The people must know.
1281
01:54:26,623 --> 01:54:29,290
And, damn it, they will know.
1282
01:54:29,416 --> 01:54:31,209
Because you're gonna tell 'em.
1283
01:54:36,382 --> 01:54:39,926
Can I have your word of honour
that you will do this?
1284
01:54:50,062 --> 01:54:53,565
Yes, Mr President.
My word of honour.
1285
01:55:02,534 --> 01:55:03,992
Gentlemen.
1286
01:55:07,288 --> 01:55:09,831
Mac assures me
that he's got three guys
1287
01:55:09,957 --> 01:55:12,375
that can knock the eye
out of a hawk at 1,000 yards.
1288
01:55:12,502 --> 01:55:15,587
I hope they don't shoot
the President instead.
1289
01:55:15,713 --> 01:55:17,631
That wasn't meant as a joke.
1290
01:55:18,966 --> 01:55:22,218
Look, there are three escaped convicts
coming out of that silo.
1291
01:55:22,344 --> 01:55:25,346
Three sharp shooters
for three convicts if we're lucky.
1292
01:55:25,472 --> 01:55:27,098
And if we're not?
1293
01:56:58,190 --> 01:57:00,859
I swear I just saw something.
1294
01:57:07,825 --> 01:57:11,327
- Maybe I'm seeing things.
- Keep looking.
1295
01:57:11,453 --> 01:57:14,039
Mackenzie will try anything.
1296
01:57:14,165 --> 01:57:16,457
He's hated me for over 30 years.
1297
01:57:28,513 --> 01:57:30,597
There's nothing moving out there.
1298
01:57:47,198 --> 01:57:50,075
- They're in the APCs.
- Thank God for that.
1299
01:57:50,201 --> 01:57:51,952
What about the press plane?
1300
01:57:52,078 --> 01:57:56,164
Developed engine trouble over St Louis,
and they had to turn back.
1301
01:57:56,290 --> 01:57:57,749
How convenient.
1302
01:58:07,844 --> 01:58:09,427
I don't know nothing.
1303
01:58:13,140 --> 01:58:14,725
I don't see nothing.
1304
01:58:16,894 --> 01:58:19,437
I sure feel something.
1305
01:58:27,697 --> 01:58:29,030
Touchdown.
1306
01:58:29,156 --> 01:58:32,534
This is General Stonesifer at Malmstrom.
Where's Mackenzie?
1307
01:58:35,121 --> 01:58:37,413
- OK.
- General Mackenzie...
1308
01:58:37,540 --> 01:58:40,917
Come on, boy. Don't freeze on me.
We've got a real situation up here.
1309
01:58:42,003 --> 01:58:46,798
But, sir, he's up in Montana,
at the Command Postjust outside Silo 3.
1310
01:58:46,924 --> 01:58:48,759
Silo 3?
1311
01:58:48,885 --> 01:58:50,218
Yes, sir.
1312
01:58:54,516 --> 01:58:57,142
I should've known
the minute I saw those APCs.
1313
01:58:59,395 --> 01:59:01,730
That miserable son of a bitch!
1314
01:59:02,815 --> 01:59:06,484
Yeah.
They're really up to something.
1315
01:59:14,118 --> 01:59:17,954
Connect me with General Mackenzie
in the command trailer outside of Silo 3.
1316
01:59:29,216 --> 01:59:31,259
Red phone. Silo 3.
1317
01:59:37,642 --> 01:59:40,060
- Mackenzie.
- Well, well.
1318
01:59:40,895 --> 01:59:42,938
Welcome to Silo 3, Mac.
1319
01:59:43,064 --> 01:59:45,607
I knew my old buddy
wouldn't wanna miss this show.
1320
01:59:45,733 --> 01:59:48,193
Well, you know
I've always been a fan of yours.
1321
01:59:48,319 --> 01:59:52,113
I haven't heard from the President.
That can only mean one thing.
1322
01:59:52,865 --> 01:59:57,243
The President's on his way to see you.
He'll be landing in a few minutes.
1323
01:59:57,369 --> 02:00:02,583
You're, moment of glory
is almost here.
1324
02:00:02,709 --> 02:00:07,838
You try one more goddamn stunt,
and I'll light up the fucking sky!
1325
02:00:15,471 --> 02:00:18,348
He hasn't quit.
I can hear it in his voice!
1326
02:00:18,474 --> 02:00:20,851
Better leave.
You'll be late for the reception.
1327
02:00:21,978 --> 02:00:24,312
What the hell
could they be dreaming up?
1328
02:00:24,438 --> 02:00:26,732
Why did Mackenzie fly
all the way to Montana,
1329
02:00:26,858 --> 02:00:28,711
if they weren't thinking
of something special?
1330
02:00:28,735 --> 02:00:32,153
What the hell did you expect?
Free tickets to the roller derby?
1331
02:00:32,989 --> 02:00:35,991
We did the right goddamn thing.
There was no other choice.
1332
02:00:37,159 --> 02:00:39,327
Here comes Yankee Doodle again.
1333
02:00:40,162 --> 02:00:42,080
And that's how it happened.
1334
02:00:43,583 --> 02:00:45,458
May I bring you gentlemen
a beverage?
1335
02:00:45,585 --> 02:00:49,630
- I'll have a Jack Daniels, Mr Willard.
- Yes, Mr President.
1336
02:00:51,257 --> 02:00:54,885
And here I thought the Pres
was your main man.
1337
02:00:58,222 --> 02:01:00,473
Well...
1338
02:01:01,058 --> 02:01:03,727
It ain't gonna be him
who jumps off that plane.
1339
02:01:06,022 --> 02:01:08,481
Of course the President's
coming off that plane.
1340
02:01:09,609 --> 02:01:11,484
You know
what the trouble with you is?
1341
02:01:12,194 --> 02:01:14,404
You ain't got no imagination.
1342
02:01:15,072 --> 02:01:18,909
I bet you the real President never
got on that plane in the first place.
1343
02:01:19,035 --> 02:01:22,412
I bet you they've got a double
sitting up there playing chief.
1344
02:01:22,539 --> 02:01:23,955
A double?
1345
02:01:24,624 --> 02:01:26,207
Yeah, you never saw that movie
1346
02:01:26,333 --> 02:01:29,711
where the Germans are trying
to kill Field Marshall Montgomery,
1347
02:01:29,837 --> 02:01:34,424
so the English substitute some poor slob
to take the heat for the real Monty?
1348
02:01:34,551 --> 02:01:37,803
You wouldn't know the difference
if they dressed up Smokey the Bear
1349
02:01:37,929 --> 02:01:40,055
and sent him out there!
1350
02:01:42,349 --> 02:01:44,059
You don't understand at all.
1351
02:01:44,185 --> 02:01:48,104
- So don't ask me nothing!
- Well, I'm asking you.
1352
02:01:48,230 --> 02:01:50,566
You think there are sharp shooters
in those APCs?
1353
02:01:50,692 --> 02:01:52,859
They don't have to be in 'em!
1354
02:01:52,985 --> 02:01:55,403
They could be under a rock,
or behind a blade of grass!
1355
02:01:55,530 --> 02:01:59,950
My man, I had mere niggers in my outfit
that could shoot the asshole out of a rat
1356
02:02:00,076 --> 02:02:02,452
at a quarter of a mile!
1357
02:02:04,080 --> 02:02:06,497
Who knows?
Maybe they got a midget out there.
1358
02:02:08,375 --> 02:02:09,710
A what?
1359
02:02:11,838 --> 02:02:14,380
Some little biddy fella
we never even saw.
1360
02:02:16,175 --> 02:02:18,927
There are no midgets
in the United States Air Force.
1361
02:02:20,930 --> 02:02:24,099
Fuck the Air Force.
Maybe they bought him from the Mafia.
1362
02:02:24,225 --> 02:02:26,392
It's all the same company.
1363
02:02:26,519 --> 02:02:28,604
On the other hand,
would they run the risk?
1364
02:02:28,730 --> 02:02:30,939
They gotta know we got all the buttons.
1365
02:02:38,781 --> 02:02:42,534
You're right. You're right!
Mackenzie would do...
1366
02:02:42,660 --> 02:02:45,286
Forget that cardboard asshole, man.
He is nothing!
1367
02:02:45,412 --> 02:02:47,455
We are up against the real power!
1368
02:02:47,582 --> 02:02:51,502
Man! Don't you understand?
1369
02:02:51,628 --> 02:02:53,879
You are messing
with the brains of this country.
1370
02:02:55,089 --> 02:02:58,759
But we're not going out there alone.
The President will be right between us.
1371
02:02:58,885 --> 02:03:01,011
You really are pitiful.
1372
02:03:01,804 --> 02:03:03,471
What the hell are you trying to say?
1373
02:03:03,598 --> 02:03:08,309
I'm saying they do not give a shit about
the President of the United States!
1374
02:03:08,435 --> 02:03:11,146
They will kill us all
before they let that poor bastard
1375
02:03:11,272 --> 02:03:12,773
make that speech on television.
1376
02:03:12,899 --> 02:03:16,693
Man, don't you know,
they will never let him blow their gig.
1377
02:03:16,819 --> 02:03:18,987
You declared war,
1378
02:03:19,113 --> 02:03:22,198
but they got the muscle,
and they are gonna keep it.
1379
02:03:22,324 --> 02:03:25,160
And Stevens is expendable.
1380
02:03:51,228 --> 02:03:54,064
All right. All right. Come on.
1381
02:03:54,649 --> 02:03:56,191
Off our black ass. Let's do it.
1382
02:03:58,945 --> 02:04:02,614
You really are funny.
1383
02:04:03,365 --> 02:04:05,576
So? Get on that key.
1384
02:04:05,702 --> 02:04:07,243
And give me another good reason.
1385
02:04:08,871 --> 02:04:10,539
You said it yourself.
1386
02:04:10,665 --> 02:04:13,917
They have no intention
of honouring their commitments.
1387
02:04:16,963 --> 02:04:20,632
Grow up, General.
Nobody honours nothin'.
1388
02:04:21,843 --> 02:04:24,302
But that's no reason
to blow up the whole world.
1389
02:04:29,308 --> 02:04:30,642
Get on that key.
1390
02:04:34,689 --> 02:04:38,233
And if you blow me away,
who's gonna turn that key?
1391
02:04:41,112 --> 02:04:45,866
Of course, you could ask your buddy,
the war hero, in there.
1392
02:04:57,336 --> 02:04:58,879
Lord.
1393
02:05:04,802 --> 02:05:06,136
What am I gonna do?
1394
02:05:13,520 --> 02:05:15,228
I'll tell you.
1395
02:05:15,354 --> 02:05:17,898
We got a dog's chance
of walking out of here,
1396
02:05:18,024 --> 02:05:21,985
getting on big number one,
with a piss pot full of money!
1397
02:05:23,279 --> 02:05:26,364
Now, who's to say us dogs
don't ever get lucky?
1398
02:05:33,247 --> 02:05:34,831
Colonel Powell here.
1399
02:05:35,625 --> 02:05:37,458
Yeah, Mac. I'll tell him.
1400
02:05:40,421 --> 02:05:43,006
Air Force One lands in 30 seconds.
1401
02:06:48,781 --> 02:06:52,450
'General Mackenzie,
Air Force One security clearance
1402
02:06:52,577 --> 02:06:55,912
'informs us that the President
and his party are about to disembark.'
1403
02:07:26,402 --> 02:07:30,238
- Mr President, General Stonesifer.
- General.
1404
02:07:30,364 --> 02:07:32,240
- General Horne.
- Sir.
1405
02:07:32,366 --> 02:07:33,909
- Beautiful day.
- Yes, sir.
1406
02:07:34,035 --> 02:07:36,828
- Thank you for meeting me.
- Your Jeep is here, sir.
1407
02:07:40,082 --> 02:07:43,669
- Mr President, this is Sgt Fitzpatrick.
- Sergeant.
1408
02:07:45,462 --> 02:07:46,797
Sir!
1409
02:07:52,469 --> 02:07:55,764
Mr President I... Yes, Mike?
1411
02:07:58,893 --> 02:08:01,394
I forgot your glasses.
1412
02:08:07,985 --> 02:08:09,945
OK, Sergeant,
we don't wanna be late.
1413
02:08:21,749 --> 02:08:24,209
How about that?
1414
02:08:31,133 --> 02:08:32,467
Well, Willie?
1415
02:08:53,364 --> 02:08:55,991
A very nice ride.
Thank you, Sergeant.
1416
02:08:56,117 --> 02:08:58,368
Thank you, sir, Mr President.
1417
02:09:00,454 --> 02:09:01,872
Well...
1418
02:11:14,046 --> 02:11:15,631
I'm Lawrence Dell.
1419
02:11:17,842 --> 02:11:20,176
- Pleased to meet you, Mr President.
- General.
1420
02:11:23,055 --> 02:11:24,515
David Stevens.
1421
02:11:28,269 --> 02:11:30,020
Willis Powell.
1422
02:11:33,941 --> 02:11:35,275
Where's Mr Garvas?
1423
02:11:35,401 --> 02:11:37,193
He ain't making this trip.
1424
02:11:38,154 --> 02:11:39,487
He's dead, sir.
1425
02:11:40,447 --> 02:11:44,910
Mr President... are you prepared
to appear on national television, and...
1426
02:11:45,036 --> 02:11:49,915
Hey, wait a minute. Unless that's
a money belt, I don't see no $20 million.
1427
02:11:50,041 --> 02:11:53,585
And unless we got that,
we ain't going nowhere.
1428
02:11:53,711 --> 02:11:58,089
Even though my tailor's a genius,
it wasn't possible on such short notice
1429
02:11:58,215 --> 02:12:02,093
to add the pockets necessary
to deliver $20 million.
1430
02:12:03,763 --> 02:12:08,767
And to be honest, I'm not sure that
today I'd have the strength to carry it.
1431
02:12:10,520 --> 02:12:12,353
The money's on the plane.
1432
02:12:13,981 --> 02:12:17,358
As to the document, General,
I'm prepared to comply with your request.
1433
02:12:20,655 --> 02:12:23,740
Well, like the old guy said,
1434
02:12:23,866 --> 02:12:26,743
"Get off, sonny,
cos you got all you gonna get."
1435
02:12:26,869 --> 02:12:28,745
After you, Mr President.
1436
02:12:50,184 --> 02:12:52,268
Just want you to know, General,
that...
1437
02:12:53,270 --> 02:12:54,855
...win or lose...
1438
02:12:56,065 --> 02:12:58,609
...you are some motherfucker.
1439
02:13:00,402 --> 02:13:02,904
Thank you... Willis.
1440
02:13:44,864 --> 02:13:49,242
We estimate objectives will appear
in one minute. Sparrow?
1441
02:13:51,453 --> 02:13:52,954
Ready, General.
1442
02:14:03,132 --> 02:14:04,883
- Blue Jay?
- 'All set.'
1443
02:14:06,177 --> 02:14:09,220
General,
what if there's no clear line?
1444
02:14:09,346 --> 02:14:11,807
There are no ifs, Blue Jay.
You have your orders.
1445
02:14:14,310 --> 02:14:17,521
We estimate objectives exit
guard house, 30 seconds.
1446
02:14:19,190 --> 02:14:21,775
It's been a difficult day,
Mr President.
1447
02:14:21,901 --> 02:14:23,944
Many troubled moments.
1448
02:14:24,070 --> 02:14:27,447
Troubled,
but ultimately rewarding, General.
1449
02:14:29,158 --> 02:14:31,702
Thanks to you, Mr President.
1450
02:14:31,828 --> 02:14:35,330
I'd like you to know, sir,
that the first time since 'Nam,
1451
02:14:35,456 --> 02:14:37,332
I feel I've really come home.
1452
02:14:40,169 --> 02:14:42,754
- Robin?
- What if the President's in our sights?
1453
02:14:42,880 --> 02:14:45,215
Those convicts are not
to reach Air Force One.
1454
02:14:45,341 --> 02:14:46,675
- Understood?
- 'Yes, sir.'
1455
02:14:54,559 --> 02:14:57,435
We estimate objectives
to be entering guard house.
1456
02:15:55,828 --> 02:15:57,829
Sorry, Mr President.
1457
02:16:11,761 --> 02:16:13,512
Objectives now visible.
1458
02:16:37,328 --> 02:16:42,874
Objectives crossing compound.
I repeat, objectives crossing compound.
1459
02:17:17,744 --> 02:17:19,369
Moving your way.
1460
02:17:20,371 --> 02:17:23,624
I repeat, they're on the road.
1461
02:17:35,302 --> 02:17:38,346
- Identify.
- Sparrow ready, General.
1462
02:17:42,143 --> 02:17:43,810
But no clear target.
1463
02:17:43,936 --> 02:17:47,397
Blue Jay ready, General,
but no clear target either.
1464
02:17:50,192 --> 02:17:53,278
Robin ready, General,
but no clear target either.
1465
02:17:53,404 --> 02:17:55,989
- Blue Jay?
- Yes, General?
1466
02:17:58,409 --> 02:18:00,451
- 'Robin? '
- Yeah, General?
1467
02:18:04,832 --> 02:18:07,125
- 'Sparrow? '
- Yeah, General.
1468
02:18:08,377 --> 02:18:10,546
Sparrow, you are now in control.
1469
02:18:11,463 --> 02:18:12,798
Yes, General.
1470
02:18:18,012 --> 02:18:20,597
Sweet Jesus! Heading for home!
1471
02:18:20,723 --> 02:18:22,348
Fire!
1472
02:19:52,815 --> 02:19:55,316
It's all right, Dave.
It's all right, yeah.
1473
02:19:55,442 --> 02:19:57,068
It's OK, buddy.
1474
02:20:00,948 --> 02:20:03,158
Guthrie.
1475
02:20:04,952 --> 02:20:06,286
Mr Secretary!
1476
02:20:10,291 --> 02:20:12,709
- It's all right.
- Guthrie.
1477
02:20:14,629 --> 02:20:15,962
Mr Guthrie!
1478
02:20:35,107 --> 02:20:42,989
Will you...?
1479
02:20:44,992 --> 02:20:48,078
Again, Mr President.
1480
02:20:49,789 --> 02:20:54,292
Will... you keep your word?
1481
02:20:56,212 --> 02:21:00,215
Will you tell the people?
