been screwing up now for a year mark

ever since Maggie died it was a tough

break

and I've covered for you but a year is

long enough you screw up now and you're

finished I make myself clear Mister

perfectly

clear and by misleading a trident crew

to believing a war is on giving them the

order to fire four dummy missiles then

that'll convince

me me and the prison frankly we don't

have a

choice

Mr

Pillsbury I've been authorized by the

secretary to give States approval

presidents for it states for it I'm

inclined to agree with

them

good I'm glad to hear Navy

is wise enough to admit that a

credibility problem exists in this one

particular

area

bring in your men ad all right

Lieutenant

gentlemen Mr Warden the president's

National Security adviser Mr Pillsbury

from the state department Admiral hovard

and Admiral Cullen

[Music]

[Music]

this

[Music]

wrong everything is

fine really I'm just my my usual foolish

self

okay what time do you

sale a report at

0400 how long will you be

gone the usual 70

days maybe

um maybe when I get back you'll um

change your mind oh Mark you don't need

another

wife especially since you can't forget

your first one L blows now I didn't mean

it that way

I why can't we ever talk about Maggie

because there isn't anything to talk

about that's why you're taking the pills

the anti-depressants from an excess of

happiness

she's striking who is

she she's just another entry in the

Kevin Harris

collection he's been finding them since

we're at the Naval

Academy he s envious what's the

point Kevin Harris born All-American

hero who could compete with that Maggie

used to go out with him didn't she

before you got

married the submarine

Navy It's a small

world everybody knew about

that you're supposed to be long gone

Captain I sign you release order this

afternoon yeah well nobody seems to know

anything about it computer's probably

down again get dressed this time I'll

walk you out the

door

[Music]

[Music]

get the

[Music]

honey

[Music]

Ernie

come on in

[Music]

flo what's the matter with the light

what's wrong

[Music]

Ernie did you finish

packing

yeah did you remember your

pills yeah I packed my

pills you know why you know why they

call me to Washington

no we're going to go out and pretend

that the war is started

yeah yeah they rigged the Montana with

some kind of tape player it's going to

take us through yellow blue and the red

alerts right to launch but it's just an

exercise

yeah but the crew won't know that it'll

just be me Kevin Harris and some shrink

that's coming along a commander

Bryce you know they put Al in the

hospital just so he won't find out find

out

what they put four dummy missiles

aboard yeah four dummy missiles and

we're going to launch

them and the Pro won't know that it's

not

real the whole thing is crazy but what's

the point the point is we're supposed to

prove to Washington that after the

world's been destroyed we're not going

to give up we're going to destroy some

more just out of Revenge I don't

understand it's all the

tapes the tapes are going to say that

the Russians have dropped the

bomb and the crew is going to believe it

the crew is going to believe that their

families have been

killed their wives their children

everybody that's when the order to

launch will come and after we fire our

four dummy

missiles then we tell the crew what's

the matter can't you take a

joke you know something

else Captain Kevin

Harris commanding officer of the USS

Montana's gold

crew he just loves the whole

idea I don't I don't feel

good what's wrong me I'm I'm

wrong I'm not fit for a

command I don't know if I ever

[Music]

was

[Music]

you've seen it

before hasn't changed a

hair I saw you and Cheryl at

dinner neither one of you were looking

too happy everything all right between

you that's personal it is an it

is anything that affects how you

function aboard the

Montana affects a lot of people and that

makes it my Vis sh and are fine sir

good when we get underway at Daybreak I

want you to take the C my pleasure

Captain let's

go I report my return AB board ay I

sir your ID please sir have you

forgotten who I am already sorry sir

otter

full crew on board sir and Commander

Bryce very good Chief I'm sorry only Gro

is not coming with us sir I'm sure

you'll take up the Slackers count on a

[Music]

c introduce yourself to Bryce and be

fking with you right C me out the

snore

[Music]

Dr

Bryce Commander

vanir how'd you guess well it doesn't

seem to be anybody else in here and I

thought it was all that psychological

training no no no upper down

upper ever been on a trident before

first time first time did a dozen

Patrols in early

Polaris but that's about it oh they're

not that much different a little easier

for the doctor yeah that's

yours oh you're trying to tell me that

this uh dut is going to be a snap huh

well we get arranged for an emergency

I've ined oh you wouldn't do that to an

old broken down doctor would

you last thing I cut into is nice big

juicy

steak in a real medical emergency we

would surface radio for help but I doubt

if we'll be doing that on this

trip I think we'll discuss that later

with the captain Harris until

then I don't think we should talk or

even allude to the drill once we're

underway think the situation should be

as real for us as it is for the rest of

the crew yes I won't ask your opinion of

operation

fire you're responsible for carrying it

through but I think I should tell you

that not only did I not approve I

consider it extremely

dangerous now that's one of the reasons

that I was chosen to be the Observer

they knew I'd be a severe

critic what are your objections there

are only three people on board who know

what's going on who could stop the drill

if anything went wrong you you and I and

Captain

Harris and I don't count executive

officer lay up to the

bridge if anything happens to Captain

Harrison

myself you better learn to

contactor I couldn't believe that the

maneuvering watch

go go boys

sir Mike C it have the word pass to Dr

Bryan

Commander Ry Captain

[Music]

[Music]

Quarters we're all briefed by the

Admiral so I won't bother with

details if there are any questions now

is the time to ask them this will be the

one and only time we discuss the drill

for obvious

reasons when will the tape

start it's all

pre-programmed all I know is that the

entire exercise will take place in a

10-day

period during which we will maintain

absolute radio

Silence with the exception of a one a

day ship status report that will send

out by a fast

Transit what about incoming

Transmissions

simulated from the onboard tapes

there's no way for the missile team to

discover the dummy

Warheads not unless they physically

open the computers have been uh

programmed to give the right responses

to any panel check during the 10

days while the crew gets programmed what

do you expect doctor prior to launch

depression anxiety lots of

anger beyond that possibly some

violence on the

crew against who you me anyone oh that's

great and then we tell them all it's

just a joke it's no

joke you better stop thinking it is

Mister right

now so I think we've covered it all

it'll be all

night Mark will you stick around for a

moment

as soon as this drill is

over I want you to request a

transfer any particular reason simple we

don't get along there's no sense

pretending that we do I don't think you

give a damn about the Navy and frankly I

don't trust you

anymore not as an officer and certainly

not aboard the

Montana is that reason or

enough I'll try and stay out of your way

captain

you're

excuse

Captain what do you think of this

drill what I think is none of your

business I don't make

policy I just carry it out I follow

orders the same way you

do when this drill is

over did it occur to you that Dr Bryce's

report on you and me

will probably be as extensive as his

report of the

crew not that I much care about your

career

Mister but I do care about

mine and that's all I care

about I can't check it the Montana left

early but these worksheets don't make

any

sense it's as if there's a whole day

missing no there's nothing nothing on

the

schedule well if it's a foul up it's a

beauty

thanks in sir have you heard about

Senior Chief Gro the gold crew Ernie Gro

sure he broke his leg he tried to kill

his wife sir he's been arrested for

attempted murder they holding him at the

base

[Music]

Hospital four West Dr nor please call

nursing station West this is Captain

renow

detective grer what do you me he's on

the gold crew I'm commanding officer of

the

blue what happened well it seems grer

was working in his garage about midnight

he called his wife out of the house and

lit into with a baseball bat how is she

cracked ribs fractured left arm and leg

severe emo over the head and scalp

police had no right to hold great for as

long as he did the man's behavior was

obviously psychotic he needed

hospitalization I don't know that it was

obviously anything we notified the base

as soon as practicable we like to

cooperate with the Navy but this was no

drunk and Bob roll this attempted murder

absolutely man has a broken leg didn't

seem to slow him down H your

Department's got standing orders nobody

can understand a word he was saying by

the time we got there he was hiding up

in his attic stock naked and raving any

reason why he flipped out now we talked

to the neighbors but not much

information there everybody said they

were a terrific couple you tell me can I

see them

sure in BLB he won't recognize it it's

not very coherent as if it's on some

kind of drug not the type besides nobody

gets trib and clearance without a heavy

Security check well we'll run lap tests

on it but I can't even guess what's

wrong with

them

doesn't knock him out just

quiet how much do you think he'll

remember when he comes out of this if he

comes out of it

Captain can't even

guess nobody's come by to see him bring

him any clothes or anything I rather

doubt if anyone will from what the

police Sergeant was saying his wife was

very well liked in the

neighborhood I'll stop by and pick up

some

things how well did you know in Captain

well enough to know he could never do

what he's

done

they found her over there just outside

the

garage I'm Mrs padet I live next door

I'm Al renow I figured the Navy would

send someone sooner or

later is Florence going to be all right

she'll

live how well did you know them I told

you I live next

door I still can't believe what he did

to

her do you know why Mrs padet why would

Ernie do it he went crazy Florence was

she's a wonderful woman everybody loves

her it all started when Ernie broke his

leg how so oh I don't know the detail

but I do know that Florence was worried

she said he was Moody working on that

boat of his the one he built in there

well that's why she had the party try

and cheer him up

and then look what happens how was he

Moody well he was always very friendly

before and then one day he just stopped

talking I just came to pick up some

clothes toothbrush things like that for

Ernie be if I did that for you wouldn't

it I'm kind of looking after their house

anyway I'd appreciate

that

[Music]

[Music]

water

water hey what's the matter with this

coffee it tastes so

alen I it off Bailey leave

alone

what what's eating you

animal

nothing just he's right about the coffee

food too doesn't taste right watch Long

Street I ask Liberty too much for you

guys now quiet

down

ow I saw the light on and how nice to

see you come on in you know you look

well Mark said you in the hospital don't

remind me the world's longest checkup I

didn't get out until after the Montana

left how was Mark

doing oh Mark the

same the same as

what the same as always that's not much

of a

recommendation I think is okay between

you

two why didn't you sit

down things are rocky between us you

know I love him but I don't think he's

ever going to get over his feelings for

Maggie did you expect he

would I'll get her some

coffee would you tell me about it the

accident

how did she

die you really want to know very much I

have to know and he won't talk about

it Mike used to have a little single

engine plane puddle

jumper he taught Maggie how to

fly and they'd go up on

weekends and they

crashed Mark was thrown free but Maggie

wasn't she burned to

death oh my God

what a

nightmare yeah and he thinks it's his

fault I get you some

coffee you got any

aspirin in the Medicine Chest in the

bathroom

[Music]

have

SE how's the crew shaking down little

nervous I don't know why maybe

rumors rumors of what this

rumors

well that seems vague

enough what do you mean by a little

nervous Dr Bryce said there's been five

cases of a rash and there's been some

complaints about the coffee they're

right about the

coffee tastes uh

Willy the crew is nervous this isn't

going to help

things bloody fighting in Egypt after a

left wing a tap in coup Libya offering

report to the rebels self-proclaimed

revolutionary government repudiating all

Egyptian Israeli treaties and calling

for immediate state of

War Israeli troops massing on the

Egyptian and Jordanian borders

Washington protests the sudden

appearance of Cuban advisers in

Jordan well done very

believable you're taking that calmly

enough I mean it's it's it's a very good

first message what are you talking

about do you know what can happen the m

east

[Music]

flues this message is part of the

drill it's the first of a series we've

been briefed on

them

drill drill hadn't s my

mind it's just that if anything really

big did

happen a lot of things would get lost in

the

shuffle might not even be time to send

us no ride

caning message would be just like

this

[Music]

did you ever prescribe eille to a

submarine crew member somebody who might

have been under some stress eille

anybody who was a candidate for equil

wouldn't be allowed on the submarine at

all really I thought it was one of the

minor tranquilizers sounds like it but

isn't you know anybody who's thinking it

no what's so special about it it's a

drug for people suffering from severe

cases of reactive depression FDA just

recently approved it as some

controversial side

effects where did you hear about it oh I

just came up in conversation well if you

know if someone who was oned you know

somebody with very serious problems

during a bad Siege of depression he

could become suicidal might not hesitate

to take other people with him Captain if

you know someone who's taking Echo

someone on a submarine you and I better

have very serious talk District me they

need you right

away excuse

me well just how accurate are all these

data on the displays pretty close to

real time satellite and radar tracking

as well as undee sound detecting arrays

reports from Air craft and surface units

are slightly delayed I don't think

you've met Dr melli Mr Warden Dr melli

created the tapes that are installed on

the Montana a pleasure sir your great

insight has been of incalculable value

to this most meaningful

experiment thank you sir I just hope my

work can fulfill your expectations let's

have a look at a section of the Atlantic

sure sector SL

0265 slash3 please 5 seconds for

recycling on screen left

sir what are all those red cigar shapes

Soviet submarines the blue ones are ours

yellow French and so on it's got a box

around it that means it's running on the

surface is that all there is just that

one

picture full display

please does that answer your question Mr

Warden what are those white streaks

satellite

orbits and the computers can predict the

probable picture 30 minutes from now or

less reliably even 48 hours into the

future where's the Montana

now you're just outside this area just

received from Montana sir thanks Bill

something wrong I don't know the

Montana's just instituted water

rationing apparently the evaporators are

foued they're starting to clean them

now $2 billion worth of submarine and

something doesn't

work hi do you have a hard day at the

office it's after hours it's

loud you didn't sound very happy when we

talked I'm

not

VOD katonic

please it's about Mark isn't it it's

about Mark and the

Montana I think you better explain

that Cheryl did Mark ever talk about the

responsibility that he

carries I mean it's not as if this is a

normal 9 to-5 job Mark is second in

command of the Montana that's a trident

submarine all by itself it's the

equivalent of the third most powerful

nation in the world I know what Mark

does Ian you don't have to quote facts

and figures to me what you you want an

emotional response and when Mark is on

patrol he's supposed to be at his Peak

both mentally and

physically and emotionally what are you

saying that he isn't you know he isn't

Mark's on equel that's what they

prescribed for people who are suffering

severe reactive depression you found

that in my medicine cabinet when I was

looking for the aspirin well why didn't

you say something then I didn't know

what it was oh but you found out I

thought you were a friend I want to know

how bad it is

what do you want me to say that he acts

crazy he doesn't sometimes he drinks too

much the eille helps him sleep I don't

know what's in his

head what will the Navy do if they find

out medically I don't know but his days

in submarines would be over and you're

trying to decide whether you're going to

do it to him or

not let me tell you something the

submarine service means as much to him

as it does to you This concerns a lot

more people than just

mark his condition could be dangerous

not just to himself but to the ship and

the crew and maybe a lot of others what

are you saying that he's going to go

Bonkers and blow up the world hour no I

don't think

that although the Montana could do it

but when Mark comes back from Patrol he

should go on

leave pull himself together till he's

off those pills you want me to tell

him and if he refuses

you can report him I'm afraid so you

tell him yourself do your own Dirty

[Music]

Work

Commander have you seen the news Civil

War in Egypt now the syrians are

fighting with the Israelis the Russians

tell us not to interfere in

Libya it doesn't look too good does it

sir

flush hey Russo you got any new pictures

of your girlfriend no way man I respect

her too much well you want to buy

some what it up it up come on

what's the matter with you I'll get you

confined to your bunk space and your

working area until further notice me he

started

it a god

Commander I've never a fight before my

life

[Music]

Captain

Captain what's the problem this time

it's

important it wouldn't be here if it

wasn't a fight broke out in the crew's

birthing Russ on Long Street Al I broke

it

up good for

you what was the fight about well it

started with a joke know the old joke

that goes do you have any nude pictures

of your

girlfriend Bry pictures

sh did you see

them it was a joke I won't have any porn

pedal aboard this ship is that

clear the Cru Mor around what is your

problem don't you come crying to me

about it if you see something's wrong

you will go find out what it is and you

do something about it don't keep telling

me you can't maintain discipline board

this

ship got more important things to worry

about did you see the last

message yes but I

know I know the release code was not

given to cancel this

drill can you imagine what a mad house

Washington must

be they too busy wondering about which

ball is up the big one or the little one

to worry about us we just get lost in

the cracks I

remember but they told us about those

messages and this isn't one of

them this one sounds real they're

supposed to sound real it's part of the

drill damn it Mark that'll be all I

don't want arguments about message

traffic want you BFF the details of some

small

fight the cruise discipline is your

problem you

[Music]

help

something

wrong rough

day well you want to tell me about

it Long Street in Russo got into a

fight after Ray Olson and myself broke

it

up Long Street began to cry like a kid

crying seems unmanly to you no doc I

don't think crying is unmanly then why

did you react so strongly it's not a

character for Long Street he's not that

kind of man I read his file I read all

the crew's files well I guess you would

have is the crew still coming down with

that rash worse than that Tac cardia

what rapid

heartbeat sometimes a symptom of

stress or drinking too much coffee

caffeine can make the heart do double

time Cruz always drank too much

coffee not on this ship have you tasted

it

lately tastes worse than castor

oil it's bothered me you talked to

Harris lately we went over to Sick Bay

roster

together see Mar to

you he has the same thing about

you Harris thinks that Washington's

canceled the

drill doesn't surprise me not that war

is broken out in

[Music]

Egypt and my wife is going to open up

this little gift shop next month now who

knows if she'll have the chance yeah I

know what you mean my sister and her

family are visiting the In-laws in Idaho

if anything happens at least they'll be

safe that's probably the worst place to

be animal they got at least 50 silos in

Idaho it'll be the first St to catch it

who told you I read it

someplace you didn't have to tell me

that D you know

that maybe it's

true but you didn't have to tell

[Music]

me you like to live dangerously don't

you

daily

you guys don't understand how serious

this is let's understand we get the

launch order we launch and that's it

next day we have a Brave New World on

our hands you know what the problem is

nobody realizes our destruction

potential or they wouldn't mess with us

it's not just

nuclear what do you mean the Montana is

a

bomb you dock us at appear here you give

the hull a sharp wrap and we could wipe

out a city without the WarHeads no we

don't have that kind of armorment aboard

just missiles leg it what do you think

makes those missiles

fly each one has 12 tons of propellant

with a binder that's almost all

nitroglycerin 24 missiles 300 tons of

nitro happy

dreams

thank you for coming

Captain I hope I'm not wasting your time

what is it well my son was playing well

I know he shouldn't have been over here

but he went to the gro garage he used to

go in there and watch Ernie work in his

boat sometimes Ernie would even ask him

to help and well you better see for

yourself in there

[Music]

[Music]

that's right lafit Falls pigment can you

tell me where the company is

located

where laid Falls where's

[Music]

that okay thanks I got

[Music]

it

I don't understand why what does pain

have to do with Mark F Gro was painting

his boat when he went nuts and if that

paint was used on the Montana inside the

Montana with no Fresh Air

Supply I'm not sure the filtration

system can clean out those paint fumes

what are you saying now you think Mark

could go crazy he's taking those pills

he's depressed unstable that makes him

vulnerable do you realize what he could

do on the

Montana they're going to be out there

for 70 days no it's um it's

what it's not fair what if he's fine and

you report him it's the end of his

career or suppose there's nothing wrong

with the paint suppose you're wrong

maybe I am but right now it's all we got

to go

on

of course if the elements in paint are

indirectly assembled contrary

specifications flurocarbon induced

psychosis is one of the possible side

effects but that kind of mistake well

captain that isn't very likely we work

off the Navy manual all of our product

is tested and all quality

controlled I'm sure it is but what can

you tell me about this badge well let's

see this is brand new we're close to

it here it is special order for the

Montana here's the invoice signed by I

can't make out the

signature

Gro what was special about the paint it

has a quick drying solvent added to the

regular formula must be for touchup in

small areas uh on a properly prepared

surface of

course suppose it wasn't a small area

and suppose it wasn't properly prepared

well then it would make one hell of a

mess crack and bugle might even get a

little toxic it's possible not definite

no not absolutely

definite how do you find out we run

animal tests come on I'll show

you after we paint the inside of the box

and let it dry put the animals in it for

24 hours

and if nothing happens to them well

everything's all right nothing fancy

about

it I want you to run a test on this

right now no problem only like I said

it'll take a day to make sure there are

no negative effects we'll

[Music]

wait you

see

gentlemen it's all going to hit the fan

now almost any moment elements of the

first Marine Division have made contact

with Advanced units of the Soviet forces

in

Iran and have suffered more than 50%

casualties

Libya has launched several tactical

nuclear weapons that Frontline Israeli

troops the Egyptians have launched a

preemptive nuclear strike with a 25

kiloton missile that fell short of Tel

Aviv and the Israeli nule clear k strike

has completely destroyed

Cairo my

God main elements of the US 6th Fleet

are standing off Hyer to land troops and

supplies a large Soviet force is moving

rapidly

to intercept the

operation as of just before this

meeting the United States put its Armed

Forces on yellow

alert Captain shut

up I had

finished now

I I guess we all pretty much know what

to expect in the next

day probably in the next few

hours some of the crew members will be

upset I don't want to hear any morbid

stories

about what might

happen

or what's happening back

home the emphasis should be on the

fact we have a job to

do and any hope that we have in the

future will depend on our willingness to

do that

job and if worse comes to

worse we can at least make

sure that the enemy will

regret having started

it now

Commander did you have something to

head no Captain

[Music]

nothing

going

somewhere don't I wish did you hear

yellow alert

it's the only good thing could be said

about all this at least pretty soon

it'll all be

over what are you hiding in your

hand

bills what kind of bills do there's not

one man aboard this ship who's got a

grip on reality anymore and Harris what

about Captain Har have you seen him have

you looked at him are you going to stand

there and tell me that Harris is acting

normally and you're the only sane person

on board is that it yeah now that may

sound crazy but yeah and I think these

pills have something to do with

it you being treated for acute

Depression

was ever since my um

ever since my wife

died nabe doctor prescribe aquaville no

the civilian doctor and I don't know why

but I think there's something in those

pills that's protecting me from whatever

it is that's affecting This Crew you

realize it's a very powerful drug the

side effects can I need those pills I

really need those pills you know the

rules as well as I do no unauthorized

drugs on board no matter what they're

for or who they're for don't do this

this is just a drill and everything has

gone wrong when the launch order comes

up on those tapes do you really think

that Harris is going to fire just four

dummy

missiles doc I need you I need you to

help me stop

him what do you want me to

do you're taking a powerful psycho

chemical you're telling me you're the

only sane man on board what does that

sound like to you doesn't that sound

just a little strange the

truth I know you want to believe that

what are you going to do with my pills

lock them up in the Sick Bay safe sorry

I have no other

choice send a fast trans to com

suant yellow alert acknowledged well

that's not standard is it sir to

acknowledge a yellow alert put it over

my signature what sir put my name on it

yes sir I'll get it

[Applause]

out

I was nervous I couldn't

sleep I know how you

feel come on

in you want to tell me about

it yes

Al I've got to tell you something

something I'm not supposed to know no

Montana's been rigged with a tape

machine to make it sound like the war

started they're going to launch four

missiles

what not real

ones after they launched the fourth one

they'll tell the crew it's just an

exercise but until then everybody is

going to think it's the real

thing how many people know it's an

exercise Kevin Harris

Mark the doctor of psychiatrist I don't

remember his name that's while you were

in the hospital so you wouldn't find out

what else did Mark tell you that's

all

really

hello something wrong with their nervous

systems I guess take a while to find out

exactly

what what happens when you put two of

them together how do they

react I haven't tried

that

[Music]

please repeat that bill I want to see it

again I don't see anything

unusual I'm not sure I know what's

upsetting thank you Admiral the yellow

alert is programmed on the operation

tapes that's not a legitimate

transmission and vanm knows it well the

boy's just acting his part real well no

it's not standard operating procedure

alerts are not acknowledge unless

requested and even then it would not be

a personal message from the executive

officer Captain Graves to the

captain wait one Admiral there's a

captain Rena here to see you he's got

something urgent on

Montana send him that down he's cleared

thank

you on reflection Admiral if you truly

feel that there's something to be

concerned about why don't you contact

Captain Harris directly I assume you

have the facilities of course but any

direct transmission would make the whole

drill

suspect oh yes of course that's uh

obvious this better be important now it

is Sir Captain renow this is Caleb

Warden president's National Security

advisor

Captain renow is commanding officer of

the Montana's blue crew my pleasure

Captain you have something to tell us

about the Montana good news I hope no

sir the Montana is in some danger

Admiral why so how the paint that was

used in her interior during retrofit

paint the Montana is an enclosed system

and a quick drying paint formula was

used for some reason it gives off toxic

fumes which would be dangerous under any

condition under the special

circumstances of the drill what do you

know about the drill Al the crew has

been primed to believe that World War

III is starting only the captain the

exec and the ship's doctor know that

it's a drill so much for Navy security

Admiral this paint sir has just been

tested on mice they became psychotic

within hours and then they attacked each

other without provocation I don't

believe there are any mice on board the

Montana sir before the mice were tested

Senior Chief Gro of the Montana suffered

a chemically induced psychosis after

exposure to the paint fumes he then

attacked his wife with a baseball bat

and almost killed her you have any

samples of this paint there's a gallon

in Captain Peter's office Lieutenant

have that paint picked up and run

through every lab analysis they can

think of yes

sir lieuten for Captain Peters how well

do you know Harris and Van Mir

Al we were at Annapolis together sir

vanir is my best friend what would you

say if I told you Commander vanir

acknowledged a yellow alert and made it

a

personal I'd say Sir that either

Commander vanm is now a dangerously

unreliable

officer Bo that he's trying to tell you

that the Montana is in serious

trouble and with everything else that's

going on I know it doesn't seem very

important but I figured you better see

for yourself right really think we're

going to War Commander think this is it

the big one you asking my personal

opinion my opinion not as executive

officer to Montana I've always trusted

your opinion sir I want to know what you

[Music]

think my opinion R my personal

opinion is

no I don't think this is the big

one I sure hope you're right

sir in here

there Commander you see what I

[Music]

mean Battle Stations torpedo all

handsman your torpedo

[Music]

station

[Music]

bearing 35 put it on the computer you

all already is Sir

four Soviet Vector 3 one of their new

submarines she'll do about 40

knots Charlie's name is auk

Sir

full attack torpedo

component or is this just another part

of the drill

Commander was the zukov ever mentioned

on the

tapes okay I knows nothing about the

zukov now will you admit that I'm right

that this drill has been canceled she's

moving

off she'll be

back

there's a thermal inversion to

court if we can get under

it we can deflect their

sooner no point in making it easy for

them is there no

sir I have the

con all ahead flank all ahead flank I

maneuvering ansers all ahead flank sir

very well maximum down bubble Mr Spencer

500 ft Max down bubble 500 ft I

sir very

well we've already gone on Blue

Alert but that situation can change any

moment without

warning then they'll throw everything

they have at

us and they'll throw it

first

now theoretically our satellites can

detect their missiles in Flight that

will give us 15 minutes maybe a half an

hour to launch a retaliatory strike

but that's

theoretical it might not work out that

way excuse me

Captain what do you mean that means if

that

happens we'll have to pick our own time

fight our own

War we'll know what's happening by the

messages that we get

all transmission is cut

off or the messages a radically changed

in character will know what's

happened and going know how to

respond eneno this is Dr mlli seems you

were right about that paint Al probably

right

ad it takes more extensive testing but

there's some reason to believe that the

drying agent in the paint is

toxic if so chemical psychosis is quite

possible of course this man grto was

actually using the paint so he was

subjected to an intense exposure to the

fumes is it possible enough to cancel

the

drill I think that would be extreme at

least under the circumstances as we know

them now thank you I'll be glad to quote

you later doctor

now hold on a

minute the whole purpose of this drill

is to find out if the men will hold up

under pressure isn't it not under these

circumstances and unless someone can

convince me to the contrary I'm sending

orders to the Montana canceling

operation fire do that and you sacrifice

your career

Admiral this operation has cost a lot of

money a big pile of money and there are

too many decisions writing on its

outcome I agree with the ad sir even the

slightest possibility that something

might you don't have a vote Sunny

neither do you Mr

Warden Lieutenant

Chavez sir message to Montana on the

flashnet personal to Captain Harris

cancel operation fire and order them to

return to New London immediately

acknowledge and put my name on

[Music]

it here's one for you Mar what is it

bbon

St it's against RS Tony so the end of

the world take it pal enjoy it while you

[Music]

can

[Music]

where did you find

that you want

some booze is very perishable in

Wartime so how are you

feeling I guess I feel like everyone

else did you ever think what would be

like to evacuate Manhattan is that where

your family is New

York wife

kids four

them you are going to drink that aren't

[Music]

you no no I don't think so it tastes

like the

[Music]

coffee end it here give you my Expert

Medical

opinion

[Music]

you're right does have a lousy

aftertaste come on in

here than take a

bre

love

this operation fire has been

cancelled can I tell you didn't I tell

you going to try something like this huh

buddy no way we're going to fall for

that did um did you acknowledge hell no

maybe it's real it looks real

don't be naive Mark they've been

planning this one for

decades their files on us are just as

complete as our files on them you don't

think the Russians know how to fake

these things take it from me this one is

for

Keeps there's no replay isn't going to

be any negotiated peace winner takes

[Music]

all red alert hasn't come yet maybe we

should

wait you know it's coming don't

you damn right it

is somebody will make a preemptive

strike problem is it won't be

[Music]

us

now we have our designated state

depending on the message received or not

received from

Washington I propose that we move up to

here the baron sea just north of Nova

Zenia perhaps the best lawn station

there

is it's not in our order

Captain there are any orders Mark don't

you understand

that I'm trying but but

what you don't follow my orders up thein

restraint

excuse me sir what is it red alert from

Red Alert

[Music]

sir got a Fain contact there 35 Z

[Music]

speak try the

computer contact's going captain

gone was it there in the first place

anything think you're listening for man

fish got lives depending on your ears

now listen yes sir it was there I swear

it

was I guess you all right

Mel somebody out there's going to solar

search

go now who do you think that might be

contact can you get a

signature still too far away sir she's

going to follow us when we leave

station they're going to wonder where

we're heading we can shake

her I'm not so sure I want

[Music]

to is it as bad as I hear worse now the

zuk off's under the inversion layer

we've lost track of her too what about

your controls either they are no longer

in effective command or the paint has

affected them as well as the others

they've already been told the drill was

cancelled and ordered back to Port I

know and they don't acknowledge which

means you have a submarine full of

lunatics

Admiral excuse

me there may be one man who hasn't been

affected Commander

vanir when he acknowledged the yellow

alert personally he was trying to warn

you how do you know that if the paint's

as bad as it is why wouldn't it make

vanir crazy too because vanir has been

taking

ecavil it's a very strong

anti-depressive it certainly is the side

effects side effects may be what's

keeping him sane doctor is that

possible yes I suppose the drug could

counteract the toxicity but that's not

my field well you make that your field

doctor right

now why haven't you told us about this

vanir before I think that's a very

important issue Captain the only

important issue right now Mr warten is

the Montana thank you sir if Amir is

saying we may have a chance well let's

examine the

facts the Montana has refused to return

to port or even to respond I think we're

all aware of that and if she carries out

her

launch she'll start World War

I and when we find her if she refuses to

return what are our alternatives

that's right gentlemen there are no

Alternatives what are you getting at

what I'm getting at Admiral is that we

have no other

choice but to sink the

[Music]

Montana

Red

[Music]

Alert Red Alert was on the

tape it is the tape isn't it what do you

think doc what's your professional

opinion I don't know what I

think I keep trying to remember remember

what

that the messages the

alerts they're all on the

tape it's just part of the drill that's

what you were trying to tell me before

that's

[Music]

right oh my

God why didn't I know

that why am I all right

now I put two aquaville in the

bourbon but I locked a bottle

up I had some in my

[Music]

pocket

really messed this

up how's the captain totally

nuts the crew they really believe the

whole world's about to go up and smoke

they've got to cancel they already have

Harris thinks it's a trick doc Harris

has gone to

war the launch order is the only thing

left on the tape launch the missiles

they wouldn't launch all of them

oh yes they

would then what do we do we can't just

sit here we've got

it we got to take over the

ship how the crew will never believe us

in the condition they're in we try and

slip some eille to Harris it's not

enough time for it to take effect

there's only one thing for us to do find

that tape player turn it off before the

launch Auto comes

through why didn't you do that before

that's the problem

doc only Harris was told where it

is they're closing sir I should be able

to get a signature

soon let me

know I want be

sure so to 1/3 Mr Spencer 1/3 I sir all

I had 1/3

maneuvering answering all add 1/3 very

well contact bearing uh 030 Captain 2500

y it's zukov got a fix bu to the fire

control computer R speed baring angle on

the

B up here one in

four state is recommending we inform the

Soviets but the in the

picture tell the Russians that we've

lost control of a tridon submarine and

that it's about to start launching its

missiles that's crazy Admiral somebody

in Moscow sure as hell is going to start

pushing the button

first we still have a chance to find the

Montana Don't We a chance she won't stay

on station what the Montana

sir if Captain Harris believes the war

has begun really begun and if he's

convinced that a good part of the United

States has been

destroyed he'll figure his own plan to

maximize the Montana's retaliation

strike how do you know

that because Mr

Warden because that's what I would do I

thought you were trained to follow

orders from Washington renow you and

Captain Harris we

are but what if there are no orders no

Washington then he's on his own and he

would not stay on station neither would

I

where would you take the Montana Al to

the best launch station I knew of

depending on the

Target in this case I'd head for the

baren

Sea north of Nova zemlia those Trident

missiles have a capability of 6,000 Mi

they can hit Moscow from where they are

right now it doesn't

matter a good Captain would shorten the

range to give the enemy less

warning and Kevin Harris is a damn good

captain

he's trying to creep up on us that's

what he's

doing we got out run

him evasive

maneuvers no I'm going to find out what

he's trying to do he wants to find out

what you want to do just a game he wants

to play close cling to 2,000 Ys sir on a

steady

bearing it's close

enough why

wait let's take over in the forward

torpedo

room we're only going to have one

chance

now yes

sir

[Music]

how about that Commander we're going to

be drawing First Blood that's right

animal open torpedo doors one and four

hi sir 029 Rel

[Music]

[Applause]

Admiral a helicopter from Hy has a

submarine contact with a tridon

signature I've set up a communication

circuit to monitor the ship and the

aircraft thanks Bill put it through the

speakers will you yes

sir monitoring number

C7 confirm White 2 it's the

Montana I've got a second contact on

C6 Roger we've got it it's the zukov

gray warrior you copy that two signs

Roger tracking two signs coming fast

number six is

out Bill get this to the chief of Naval

operations what the hell is all that

mean but to call the president Mr Warden

have him inform the Russians inform the

Russians about what

he might want to inform them that the

Montana just put a torpedo up the zov's

tail great warrior White 2 a Victor 3 is

just surfaced it looks like it needs

help stay with it do not attempt the

contact radio intercept reports are

coded distress signal a Soviet troller

has just changed course for your

position ETA 3

hours something on number

seven going fader gone just made it away

but that was the Montana I don't know

where she

[Music]

is no one torpedo yet that shouldn't

have happened not with you in control of

the torpedo I can't be responsible for

malfunctioning computers and faulty

Torpedoes

well doesn't matter it's probably the

only time that we'll launch those

Torpedoes next time it'll be the Big

Bird

take care for torpedo

stations here torpedo station

secure this is where we were at the time

of the shoot this is where we are now at

the bottom 1,000 ft down safe but only

for a while the zukov must have sent off

a message the Soviets will know our

position baren SE is

out what's the

alternative maybe something

better back to station

they won't expect

that you don't

approve that um sounds

logical your approval is a big help

Mark and we're going to go through a lot

together and we're going to need each

other's

support what do you think so far huh we

having cre Captain let's hit him again

come

on you want to see me

doctor something wrong

Commander how long have you known me

Ray five or 6 years now I was on the old

cumer when you were signed as Weapons

officer we came to the Montana together

together you said you trusted my opinion

yes sir I do have I ever lied to you no

sir I'm not lying now

Ry there is no war about to break out

all the messages

alerts they've been

fake this is just a

drill it's called operation

fire

I'm sorry sir I think you've gone around

the

bend Ray the commander is

correct this has been a drill you've

been a part of

it it's also gotten out of

hand we to Peter the zukov that's no

fake no no fake that was real but Ry it

was a mistake we can't afford to have

have any mistakes

happen Hey listen Commander I want to

believe you God I want to believe you

but you can't just ask me to trust you

on something like this you got to prove

it to me it's your word against

everything that happened so far you

could have cracked you could have

cracked under the pressure I don't

know I'll prove it to you R just as soon

as I

can but in the meantime can I trust you

to keep your mouth

shut

nothing's going to change if I forget

you said any of

this is that

all it's all right it's

all that was a dead

loss of all the men on This

Crew Olsson was our best bet suppose he

tells the captain and you doc are going

to lie up and down that man is

crazy have any more bright

ideas are there any weapons on board any

handguns in the Small Arms Locker Harris

has got the key what are you trying to

do organize a mutiny

so that we can get these birds off

without

interference I figur we can come up to

sir no traffic anywhere and there won't

be either I hear there's something

coming in on The Voice circuit listen

you know Montana cancel operation fire

repeat cancel operation fire surface and

record repeat surface and

to Montana cancel operation repeat

cancel operation report repeat

report they're trying to compromise our

frequencies they're trying to cancel the

orders to every ship in the fleet it

sounded real to me sir I beg your pardon

Captain but it sounded like the real

thing you're right

Chief they have a way of making

everything sound so convincing

most of you don't remember the Battle of

the

Bulge you remember the Battle of

buge of course

you battle of buge World War II German

soldiers dressed in American uniforms

infiltrated the

rear they caused so much confusion they

almost won the battle maybe even the

war this is the modern version

this is the Battle of the buls brought

up

[Music]

today remember that was a voice message

you going to fall for that are you are

you hell no you're

not we received official order to stand

by the launch and gentlemen that's

exactly what we're going to

[Music]

do does that answer your question

Chief yes sir it sure

does

Lieutenant

Chavez yes sir priority call for you Mr

Warden is this a secure line yes sir

Caleb Warden I don't have much faith in

those probability positions

Admiral Kevin Harris mad or san is not

going to be where those computers decide

oh why not even what we know about the

torpedo and of the zukov and figuring

the Montana's probable speed that area

of ocean seems the most logical place to

search I know that's why he won't be

there he's got a top sonar crew he's got

a good general knowledge of where our

acoustic devices have been planted and

he's got a pretty good idea of what we

must know what are you saying now there

are certain areas of low probability sir

just south of where the zukov was hit

Harris knows their low probability areas

too and you think that's where he is if

I wanted a clear area for launching sir

that's where I'd

be you telling me is that we can't run a

search operation from here somebody has

to be on the scene and you want to go

don't you desperately but it's also The

Logical

move all right you better get your gear

together there an e2c Hawkeye at Andrews

fueling for a flight to the Hy I'll have

a helicopter here in 30 minutes to get

you over there I'll ask the fleet

commander to detach the hall Ander

support units thank you sir you'll be in

charge there's one thing you have to

remember

other people run the country and they

make the top

decisions I think you better spell that

out it means that if you locate the

Montana and she refuses to surface you

may receive an order that'll be very

difficult for you how in order to

destroy the

Montana yes

sir I

understand good

luck

that was the Secretary of State the

Central Committee left Moscow in a body

in the last

hour it's presumed they're heading to

their main command

post our satellites report unusual

activity at kusar amsk terot and other

missile

centers the president has

been informed by m that they demand

tangible evidence within 12

hours that the Montana has either been

destroyed or

surfaced and altimative they weren't

very

polite

look what are you doing here Captain

Harris put me in charge of the S Bay

that's what I'm doing here I hadn't

heard well you heard it now you want

something a Dr Bryce was holding uh my

medicine it's a personal prescription

it's um it has my name on it it's it's

in the safe I can't help you

Commander well the combination of the

safe's right in the drawer there uh

given out didn't say you were any

exception

that

Commander

Commander I wanted to speak with you

what about

R want to say I'm sorry about the

dock

yeah thank you

p

there's a rough break you know what you

told me about before the drill what did

you say it was

called operation fire yeah that's what I

thought we came up to 200 ft we got a

voice message I guess somebody lowered a

transducer into the water to broadcast

it what did they

say said it was from

CNO said operation fire has been

cancelled the captain says it's a trick

that the enemy compromised our

frequencies what do you think

right

sorry I don't know what to think but if

there's no war going on up there and we

launch those

missiles we're sure as hell going to

start

one without the

dock I figured you could use some

help
