'Thunderbirds are go! '

We are flying at 3,000 feet, folks.

Way down beneath the clouds
is the ground.

We will show you a fantastic sight!

That, folks, is the
newly completed Thompson Tower.

We'll go past the sea of windows!

Thompson Tower
is more than just a gigantic store.

It is a self-contained city.

Every commercial item in the world
can be obtained on the 350 floors.

A person could live a whole year
without moving from a room

in one of the 12 hotels in the tower.

It is a stupendous feat
of engineering skill.

Beneath the great structure
is a honeycomb of corridors

and parking space
for 10,000 automobiles.

A monorail links parking area
and store.

Oxyhydnite power rising to 27,000.

Pressure, 456.

G-good. The steel should yield
a-a-at any moment now.

This new gas
should help our work tremendously.

I-I know, sir.
But i-it's still experimental.

We don't know how it will a-affect
the operators.

'Boys, any trouble, and you get out.'

It's working!
The flame is penetrating.

It's amazing! 15 seconds, I make it.
That's three times faster than a laser!

Yeah, i-it's better than I expected.

Looks like you've done it again, Brains.

It's too early to tell,
but the signs a-are favourable.

'You're doing great, boys.
Cut a large panel, then stop.'

OK, Father.

Virgil's blood pressure is up.

- 'Are you OK, Virgil?'
- Sure, Father.

- Why the rise, Brains?
- Could be due to his concentration.

They almost seem
to be enjoying the work.

- Nearly there, Scott.
- Yeah, a few more minutes.

'Virgil, what's
wrong? Are you all right?'

Virgil! Answer me. Are you OK?
Scott, can you hear me?

'Answer me, Scott! '

Their breathing is normal,
but something is wrong.

Turn off the gas
and let's get them out of there.

- Tin Tin, prepare the sick room.
- Yes, Mr Tracy.

Well, Brains...
any change in the boys?

I-I'm afraid not, Mr Tracy,
but I have the test results.

You have?
Well, were the masks faulty?

No, I-I checked them
and they're per-perfectly sound.

Scott and Virgil are physically OK,

but tests show that the gas entered
through their pores.

Any after-effects?

There is no sign of any.

Look, Virgil is coming round.

Hi, Virgil, how are you feeling?

Just great!
Hey, what am I doing in the sickroom?

- Don't you remember the gas?
- Of course.

I remember feeling dizzy.
I guess I must have passed out.

Scott's coming round, too.

Gee, that was sure a good sleep.

Hello, son. How do you feel now?

- What's this bedside manner stuff?
- You passed out in the test chamber.

- Remember?
- Oh, yeah. That's right.

- What happens now, Brains?
- I'll work on the oxyhydnite.

What about us? Can't we get up?

All right, boys, but take it easy.
Go out. It's a lovely day.

Hush, dear.
She's probably just a learner.

She ought to learn in a field.
She's a danger to everyone!

Say, it's the Highway Patrol.

I guess she had that coming.

People like that cause accidents.
They are a menace.

Wow! Is THAT it, Dad?

That's it, Tommy.
Isn't she a giant?

There's the auto-park entrance.
It's a long way from the store.

Sure, four miles. Space for
10,000 wagons covers a big area.

Here we go.

- OK, let's go see this store.
- How do we get there?

Follow the sign to the monorail.

The nerve of that patrol car
stopping me like that!

Forget it, dear.
Concentrate on what you're doing.

There's the entrance.

Slow down. That's the barrier.

Use the brake, honey.
You're going too fast!

BRAKE! What are you doing?
You're killing us!

For Pete's sake!

Get out of here! The car's on fire!
Ouick, the emergency exit!

- What's that rumbling, Joe?
- I don't know, Blanche.

I'm trying to find this monorail.

- The sign said this way.
- And north, south, east and west!

It's like a rabbit warren down here.

- I told you to buy a guidebook.
- All right!

Let's hurry. We'll be here all day.

Fire in areas one and two.
Check all sprinklers and alarms.

Systems negative.
Operate emergency systems.

It's no good. They don't respond.

Alert all fire appliances.

We must contain the fire
to the sub-basement, so seal it off.

I want all those corridors shut down.

Corridor A-12, clear.

A-12, sealed.

Corridor C-14, clear.

C-14, sealed.

Where are those fire tenders?

Everything from a 40-mile radius
is coming.

- They will be here in seven minutes.
- Good.

Direct them to section 12. People
in the tower won't see them there.

It is vital we don't scare anyone. If
we're lucky, we won't need the tenders.

Gee, Mum and Dad
sure take their time.

Dad, I'm gonna hide.

- Bet you won't find me.
- Yes, we will.

Oh, no, you won't.

Corridor D-49, clear.

D-49, sealed.

- You'll never find me.
- Yes, we will.

OK, this is the police!
We're coming in.

'Don't move. We've got you covered.
The place is surrounded.'

- OK, Lieutenant, keep him covered.
- Move. You're under arrest.

OK, I'll come quietly.

Corridor D-50, clear.

Corridor D-50, sealed.

Let's find our way out of this maze.

- We can't go that way. It's blocked.
- I told you to buy a guidebook!

That end's closed, too!

- Joe, we're shut in!
- What's going on?

All corridors checked and sealed.

- We can contain the fire there.
- She'll burn herself out.

Have the fire tenders ready,
just in case.

Say, the main vent seal
has failed to operate.

- That's the building alarm!
- We MUST seal that vent shaft!

Alert tenders and close that cover!

More appliances are arriving.

Get them to sector 12-
ready to move in at a second's notice.

- Is the air vent seal in position?
- No, we can't shift it.

Try, man!

It's jammed! And flames
are going right up the building!

OK, move those tenders in.
We can't wait any longer.

But the people in the tower
will panic if they see them.

They'll see nothing if those flames
are not put out now!

Hey! Open this door!

- Let us out!
- Joe, look!

The place is on fire!
They've shut us in! Open this door!

Section seven, evacuated.
And section ten.

'Fire Chief here. All pumps
working, but we can't hold the fire! '

- Section 19, evacuated.
- It's going up like matchwood!

- Why don't they let us out?
- Help! We're in the basement!

Mum, where's the smoke coming from?

Don't worry, Tommy.
We'll be out soon. You'll see.

Can you hear me?
Please, someone let us out!

Sections 103 and 113, evacuated.

Good. Check the cameras.
Let's see if the fire has spread.

Corridor D-50, clear.

Wait! How did THEY get in there?

Those corridors were empty!

Maybe, but there are people
there now. We must get them out!

How? It's impossible! No one can
get near the sub-basement entrances.

- Which corridor were they in?
- D-50, but we can't reach that!

- What are we going to do?
- I don't know. I just don't know.

The air is stifling.

- Are we gonna die, Mum?
- Of course not. Are we, Joe?

No, no, someone will come
and rescue us.

How are you?
Mighty strange stuff, that gas.

Yeah. Funny thing is,
I feel better than normal.

Me too. I hope Brains irons
out the snags. It could be useful.

Not if it keeps knocking you out.
Say, Tin Tin seems to be having fun.

Reckon you're in the best place.
Boy, is it hot today!

- How's the water?
- Just great, Alan.

Come in, it's so cool!

Haven't time, I'm relieving John
in the space station.

His month's duty is up.

It'll be nice to see him again.
He must get lonely up there.

Less than two hours to go!
I can't wait to dive into that pool.

Sure gets lonely up here.

It's so quiet.
Still, not much longer now.

'Calling International Rescue.'

I spoke too soon!

'Calling International Rescue.

'This is Thompson Tower.
Do you read me?'

Receiving you, strength five.
Go ahead.

The tower is on fire.
The fire fighters can't control it.

My buddy said you were the people
to contact. You're our ONLY hope.

We can't put the fire out,

and what's even worse is that there are
three people trapped below ground.

OK, we'll get help to you.

Thank goodness I remembered them!

They'd better be quick. The flames have
reached the top of the building.

Go ahead, John.

'The Thompson Tower is on fire with
three people trapped below ground.'

- Someone's in trouble.
- Let's get the brief. Come on.

I'll be right there.

Section 709, evacuated.

Good.
Wonder how they're doing down there.

It's the last place I'd want to be
trapped in a fire.

They can't know we're down here!

Breathe through this, Tommy.
It'll help.

He's scared out of his wits.

Where ARE they?
They can't leave us to die!

Get going, Scott. We won't know
details until you investigate.

On my way.

We called International Rescue
15 minutes ago, and still no word!

'This is International Rescue
calling Thompson Tower.

'Give me all the information
you have.'

Thompson Tower here.
This is the situation.

OK, I get the picture.
Thunderbird 1 will be there soon.

- Launch Thunderbird 2 with the Mole.
- Right, Father.

Section 971, evacuated.

The entire building should be clear
in five minutes.

That will only just be enough time.
The tower can't last much longer.

How will the corridor roof
stand up to the burning rubble?

The walls are getting hotter
every minute!

And the smoke! I can hardly see.

I can't hold out much longer, Joe.
Oh, Joe, why don't they come?

Who, Blanche? Who?

No one can get us out of this now!

The whole Thompson Tower
must be ablaze!

Thunderbird 1 here.
Approaching danger zone.

'FAB, Scott.
Virgil is 9.5 minutes behind you.'

Tower Control from Thunderbird 1.
I'm coming in to land.

'Standing by. But how are you
going to effect this rescue?'

'Leave that to us.
Thunderbird 2 will be here soon.'

Thunderbird 2 from Thunderbird 1.
I'm over the tower. It's not good.

'Can you cut down on arrival time?'

It depends on wind variation. I'll try.

I'm going down now.

- Entire building evacuated.
- Look! She's breaking up!

Get those fire tenders clear!

Tower Control to Fire Chief.
Abandon area!

Repeat - clear the area!

- All fire tenders out of area.
- Just in time.

These people are here in D-50.

We'll have to go down here,
half a mile away.

The tower's coming down!
It's finished!

What's happening? Sounds like
the whole world's caving in!

And it's got much hotter, Joe!
What are we gonna do?!

Keep calm, honey. Hold on.

'Thunderbird 1 control
from Thunderbird 2.'

- Be with you in five minutes.
- 'FAB, Virgil.'

The tower's down.
Makes our job tough.

Virgil, it looks like we'll have
to cut through a heap of steel doors.

Brains' gas would have been ideal.

The way I figure it,
that gas is our only hope.

But that stuff is not safe.
True, it only knocked us out on test,

but prolonged exposure could kill.

Three people will die if we don't
chance it. Now, what do you say?

Well, the equipment's aboard.

OK, Scott. If lives depend on it,
then we must risk it!

Good man. I'll tell Father
and Brains what we're doing.

'Father, using Brains' gas
is our only hope.'

- Are you certain there's no other way?
- 'Yes.

'Those people will die if we don't.'

- Well, Brains?
- I don't like it.

The gas masks are useless.
They'll be c-completely unprotected.

'Our alternative is to come home.

'There is no sense in us sitting
here waiting for them to die! '

You're right, Scott.
Use the new equipment.

A-a-and keep in continual
r-radio contact.

Perhaps small doses of the gas
won't hurt.

There's no time for an
on-off operation. It's all or nothing.

OK, be careful, both of you.

OK, Scott, what's the action?

We'll have to drill down to
the corridor system in the Mole.

But first, we'll have to clear the
western section of burning rubble.

That's where we start drilling, is it?

Right. There's a lot of soft rock,

so get the Firefly out of the pod
and start clearing.

I'll join you soon.

'OK, Scott, will do.'

And go carefully.
That rubble is white hot.

This place is gonna collapse soon.

Gee, this heat!

Joe...Joe, what's happening to us?

Tell me we're not gonna die, Joe.
Tell me!

Easy, honey, the boy will hear.

We've got to be brave.

Try to breathe gently.
Make use of every bit of air.

Tommy!

'Approaching fire area.'

FAB. I'm going over
to prepare the Mole.

There's a car ready for you.

- Gosh, the heat is fantastic!
- 'Can the Firefly stand it?'

We'll soon find out. Here goes.

- What the heck's that?
- It's like nothing I've ever seen!

Look at the way it's clearing
that rubble!

And the heat must be unbearable!

How's it going, Virgil?

Not so well.

This rubble's difficult to dislodge.
I'll have to use the cannon.

OK, but as fast as you can.

- Ready yet, Virgil?
- Nearly through.

Right. I'm coming to join you.

These International Rescue boys
sure have some great equipment!

Right, Virgil, proceed
to drilling position.

FAB.

This is it, Virgil. Take her down here.

We can enter the corridor system
from the side.

Right. Here we go.

What's the plan, Scott?

We know those folks are in D-50.
The nearest we can get in is C-17.

- Why the cutting gear?
- The electronic systems have failed.

We have to cut through the doors.

We'll be working in the dark!

No, the emergency power plant for
the lights is in the control centre.

OK, let's get the gear!

This is the first door.
Let's get busy with that cutting gear.

Keep your fingers crossed.

These doors aren't as thick
as the test door.

But there are more to go through.

I guess this is the finish.

'Increase the cutters'
pressure. We must work faster.'

- How do you feel?
- Fine. But that means nothing.

Yeah. We thought
we were OK last time.

OK. That's number one. Come on!

- No effects yet, Virgil.
- No. But it sure is hot down here.

It's burning!

Let us out of here!
You can't leave us to die! Help!

This is it.

The fire has reached us.

We're finished.

Blanche...Tommy...

Someone's cutting through the door!
Someone's found us! We're saved!

This is the last one, Scott.
We made it OK!

Yeah, but don't ask me how.

Maybe Brains can supply the answer.
He's been listening the whole time.

Stand back, Virgil!

Come on, Virgil. Here they are!

My wife and kid are unconscious.

- OK, let's get them out.
- Fast! The roof is starting to cave in!

Look! The ground! It's giving way!

That means the corridors have caved in.

Those International Rescue guys
tried, but it was impossible.

They died helping others.

I reckon they're the bravest men
I've met.

Wait! Look over there!

Hello? Can you hear me? Are you OK?

'All present and correct.
We made it just in time.'

What an organisation!

No one knows where they come from,
but thank heavens they come! Yes, sir!

Y-yeah, there's no doubt about it.

- You were saved by the heat.
- The heat? How?

I-it must be a characteristic
of the gas.

The vapour normally enters by the pores.

But when the temperature
is high enough, the gas evaporates.

So it doesn't get a chance
to enter the body.

The solution is simple.

A-all we do, is use
electrically-heated gas cylinders.

Great! It can become standard gear
in all the Thunderbirds.

Say, Tin Tin's quiet.
What are you reading, honey?

"Joe, Blanche and Tommy Carter
were at the fire enquiry

"and they all looked fit and well.

"The fire started when a car crashed
in the parking area.

"Once again, we thank
International Rescue for their help.

"Without them,
the Carters would have perished."

That's good.
Kinda makes the job worthwhile.

One thing, Tin Tin. Was the driver
of that car male or female?

I was afraid you'd ask me that.

You've guessed it.
The driver was was female.

Look at that maniac!
People like that are a menace!

You're so right, dear.
You're so right!
