Have begun docking procedure.

You've got a great crew
there, Captain.

It's been a privilege working
with you these past weeks.

'We've enjoyed yoUr company, sir.
Have a good furloUgh.'

Don't worry,
I really plan to Iet my hair down.

It's a great party.

Looks like it.

What's the time?

Hmm. YoU poor little thing.

(Sighs)

4:30...

5:30...

6:30...

Oh...

Do yoU know what yoU need?

An alarm clock.

- Here's your coffee, Keith.
- That's jUst what I needed.

Good morning, sir.

(EIIis)
'Moonbase to Control - sighting.

'Area red zero-four-two
one-eight-four.'

- 'How does it Iook?'
- Awaiting confirmation.

(AIarm clock ringing)

Hi.

Hello.

Franklin.

Joe Franklin.

Missile technician.

Don't tell me - it's, er... Ford?

Fraser?

Foster? PaUI Foster.

Chuckles) Glad to meet you, Colonel.

I knew it had to begin with F.

These, er, poops are going
throUgh the entire alphabet.

Everything from Aaron to Zazinsky.

Yeah, I hear everybody in SHADO
has to go throUgh it.

- Right.
- (Bell)

(PA) 'Colonel PaUI Foster, report
to room 1 7 on the first floor.'

I think yoU're. ..
yoU're first in Iine, sir.

You're, er, FO. l'm FR.

See yoU in the fun palace.

(SID) 'U FO 426. Speed : one and a half
million miles per second.

'Bearing: positive. Course:
zero-one-seven-two-three-four red.'

Confirmed. U FO on positive track.

Red alert.

Interceptors, immediate IaUnch.
Interceptors, immediate launch.

Moonbase to Control, we
have a positive sighting.

- Get the trajectory termination ASAP.
- Yes, sir.

Have you ever contracted scarlet fever,
mumps, measles, whooping coUgh...

Yes?

- I had measles.
- Oh. How old were yoU?

- FoUr.
- Mm .

Or was it five?

(Upbeat Hammond organ soUI)

(Inaudible)

(Music stops)

Getting plenty of sleep, Colonel?

Oh, yes. Most of the time.

After two weeks here
yoU'll feel on top of the world.

(Breathing heavily)

It could be better, Foster.

Keep it up, Rowan.

We'II soon get rid of that,
won't we, Franklin?

Course?

Zero-one-seven,
three-foUr-eight, one-zero-one.

- Speed?
- SOL zero-decimal-five, redUcing.

Program computers
for missile firing sepuence.

'One-eight-three-seven,

Program complete. Missile firing

(Grunting)

(Groaning)

- Great place.
- A giggle a nanosecond.

I can't wait to leave.

(Sighs)

Some workoUt.

Yeah.

And this is only the first day.

Come on, gentlemen,
one of yoU into the bath.

Oh. . . That's jUst
what I could do with.

And I'm first - O before R.

Right.
You reckon yoU're ready for this?

It's a saUna bath.

(Ticking)

(Upbeat soUI)

(Music stops)

- (Buzzer)
- Moonbase for yoU , sir.

Go ahead, Lieutenant.

'We have the UFO termination fix.

'SoUthern England,
grid reference foUr-seven-zero-six.'

Yes, groUnd radar
gave Us the same information.

'How badly was it damaged?'

Interceptors scored a probable hit
but the UFO maintained its coUrse.

LieUtenant, maintain Moonbase
on full red alert.

If that U FO breaks cover and Iifts off,
I want it destroyed.

- Keep me informed.
- 'Roger and out.'

- Are the mobiles moving in?
- Yes, sir.

Nothing of real significance
here, Alec.

The research centre is Iess than
1 5 miles away.

Aliens wouldn't travel a billion
miles to visit a glorified health farm,

- even if it is rUn by SHADO.
- Didn't Foster check in there this morning?

- Colonel Foster.
- Yes.

- Get me Dr Fraser at that research centre.
- Yes, sir.

Radio contact negative, sir.

- Well, keep trying.
- Yes, sir.

- Better get over there, AIec. Fast.
- Right.

We've just Ianded. l coUIdn't
see any activity aroUnd the house.

Alec, the men from the mobiles
have the place sUrroUnded.

'Hold them back, l'II move in
with the helicopter crew.

'There's Iess chance of being spotted. OUt.'

OK. Let's go.

You wait here.

Come with me. YoU wait there!

- Are yoU certain?
- 'We've searched the centre.

'Everyone's dead
and there's no trace of Foster.'

There's only one answer, AIec.

He's been taken...

by the aliens.

Steer one-two-eight,
maintain present speed.

One-two-eight it is, sir.

(Ford) 'Control to Skydiver.
I have Commander Straker for yoU.'

- Waterman here, sir.
- 'Captain Waterman,

'I have some news. ..
It concerns Colonel Foster.

'I'm afraid we mUst assUme that
he is in the hands of the aliens.

- 'Did yoU read me, Captain?'
- Yes.

Sir, what happened?

'The research centre was attacked.
Colonel Foster is missing.

'That U FO is still in the area.
Maintain Sky One on full red alert,

- 'ready for an interception.'
- Yes, sir.

How can a thing Iike this happen?

We work on the assUmption
that Colonel Foster is alive. OK?

This is supposed to be an
operational alert. Let's get to it.

(Man) Maximum speed! Seal all water
locks! Dock checks A throUgh G .

Control to Skydiver, remain
on standby for emergency launch.

Well? What are his chances?

- Oh, come on, Alec. ..
- JUst tell me what you have in mind.

When that U FO Iifts off
the ground radar shoUId fix its position.

- And?
- We destroy it.

Knowing that PaUI Foster
is almost certainly aboard?

That's right.

You'd just better hope I'm never in a
position to press the bUtton on you.

How do you know
he's even still alive?!

Look, PaUI Foster's a highly trained,
dedicated, coUrageoUs officer.

BUt he knows the entire SHADO setUp.

Yes, he's trained
to resist interrogation, but

what gentle means of persUasion
will they use?

No, AIec, if we destroy that UFO

Paul Foster Ioses his Iife,
quick and clean.

If we don't get it. ..
God knows what will happen to him.

- (Buzzer)
- 'Commander, we have a radar trace.'

Do we have a fix?

CompUter triangulates reference
one-two-four zero-foUr-eight.

Speed?

- 600 knots, accelerating.
- That mUst be it.

Where is Skydiver?

- Here, sir.
- CompUte.

Roger.

Looks like we coUId intercept
around here.

Where's that readoUt?

Hmm. It looks good.

- Signal Sky One, immediate IaUnch.
- Yes, sir.

LaUnch stations.

- (AIarm beeping)
- Check boosters 1 , 2 and 3!

Clear one!

'One and two clear.'

Liftoff stations.

Liftoff minus five, foUr,

three, two,

one, zero.

Sky One to Control, airborne.

We have yoU
on positive track, Sky One.

Set onboard compUter
for interception coUrse.

Check the U FO's airspeed.

Yes, sir.

- 1 ,500 knots.
- What's its rate of climb?

Ten-decimal-foUr MPM .

Maybe it's more damaged
than we thought.

Let's hope so.

I have it on radar.

Range, 20 miles, closing.

He mUst get it.
It's a sitting dUck.

Have visual contact.
Setting missile firing sepUence.

(Foster's voice) 'YoU've got a great
crew there, Captain.'

'It's been a privilege working with
yoU these past weeks.'

Missile launch, minUs ten seconds.

Five, foUr...

three, two...

. .zero.

How the blazes did he miss it?!

- Get me LieUtenant EIIis!
- Sir.

Excellent visibility.
Positive radar tracking.

Positive infrared homing signal.
If l thought that Captain Waterman...

Had any emotion for a man he's been
serving with the past two months?

Moonbase for you, sir.

LieUtenant EIIis, what are the
chances of interception by Moonbase?

'None, sir. UFO's leaving earth
on an antilUnar trajectory.'

Beyond your range. Well, keep
tracking it and report any change.

'Roger and out.'

- Prepare to receive the Captain.
- Yes, sir.

Open bulkhead.

Range, 26 million, receding.

LieUtenant?

It can't be.

Check it, and tell Control.

JUst how long is this going to take?
Is it or isn't it?

It's pretty complex, sir.
Times, coUrses, trajectories,

the interplay of G-forces.

(SID) 'Result sepUence: trajectory
zero-foUr-two-three-two-six cyclic.

'LUnar G variable,
seven over five-decimal-foUr.

'Computer predicted power loss:
seventy per cent.

'Orbit fading.
Zero-decimal-foUr GRT.

'Predict impact Iunar grid
reference B-one-eight-two.'

Moonbase to Control. Positive.

Thank you, Lieutenant.

So the UFO's headed for the Moon.

Yes, it hasn't the power
to escape the Iunar G-force.

It must have been damaged.

You were asking aboUt Foster's
chances of survival.

They've just improved. They must be
down to a million to one.

U FO still maintaining its trajectory.

'Good. As Iong as it's heading
for the Moon, do nothing.

'But if it manages to develop
enough power to escape, destroy it.'

The astronaUts are in position.
They can be spaceborne in seconds.

- 'Fine. Keep me informed, LieUtenant.'
- Roger and oUt.

Do we have a closer fix
on where it's gonna Iand?

Yes, er... grid reference
one-eight-two zero-eight-four.

Hmm.

That's about 40 kilometres.

I'm going out there.

- Tell Moon Mobile 1 to stand by.
- Yes, Lieutenant.

We'II be there in eight minutes.

- Keep me informed of the U FO's progress.
- 'Yes, LieUtenant.'

- We're in position.
- 'Area confirmed. Two minUtes to impact.'

60 seconds.

'50.'

40.

'30.

'?0.'

There it is.

- It's gonna crash.
- 'Ten, nine,

'eight, seven,

'six, five,

'foUr, three,

'two, one.. .'

(Inaudible)

- Would you ask Jackson to come in?
- 'Yes, sir.'

Well, what's the sitUation?

(Polish accent) I've jUst spoken with
Moonbase. lt's a very difficUIt sitUation.

Colonel Foster's general physical
condition is satisfactory,

considering what
he's just been through.

BUt he's in an alien spacesuit -
he's breathing IipUid.

We can transfer him to
normal breathing.

- HUh. .!
- Come on, now, you've done it before.

Yes - with aliens, AIec.

And none have sUrvived
more than a few hoUrs.

It's an extremely
hazardous operation.

We've by no means
perfected the technipue.

There's another difficUIty.

Here at SHADO headpUarters
we've every facility.

On Moonbase the epUipment
is natUrally more crude.

Well, I'll be monitoring
the operation by videolink.

If you'II excUse me.

You'II have to help me
with the helmet.

(Inaudible)

Listen, AIec,
Paul Foster's in top physical shape.

He's an expert skin-diver,
Used to underwater pressure.

You think that backgroUnd may help?

Well, I'm no doctor,
but it mUst be an advantage.

You coUId be right - strong Iungs,
good respiratory system.

SUre.

He'II pUII through.

Come on.

We're all set here, sir.

'Right. Now, listen carefUIIy.

'As I see it,

'the main problem will be panic
when the helmet is removed.

'Colonel Foster has been breathing
liquid for some hoUrs now.'

DrUgs will have been used
to help his lUngs adapt.

Now, when we attempt
to reverse to normal,

the physical experience
will be similar to drowning.

'Unless this moment
is carefUIIy controlled,

'he could go into convUIsions
and possibly choke.'

Let the Colonel know the situation.

If you can hear me, nod your head.

We're going to remove yoUr helmet.

Try and maintain
yoUr rhythm of breathing.

Whatever happens, don't panic.
Do yoU Understand?

What is that?

Two cc's of Petracol.
It should help, l hope.

- 'Is the resUscitator ready?'
- Yes, sir.

'AII right, LieUtenant, begin.'

Take hold of him .

(Choking and coUghing)

Now.

(Choking)

(Jackson) 'Hold him down -
he coUId rUpture his lUngs!'

(Man) Hold him down!
Stop him struggling!

(Foster choking)

(Breathing rapidly)

(Coughs)

(Breathing rapidly)

(Coughs)

(Man) Relax.

Breathe deeply.

That's it.

Nice and relaxed.

How's the breathing now?

Better.

JUst take it easy.

How do you feel?

- Fine.
- (Door opens)

- What happened?
- YoU passed out for a few minutes.

- A few minutes?
- Here, drink this.

Tell me, have yoU been bUrning
the candle at both ends recently?

Well, there was a party Iast night.

A saUna can be helpful,
but there's one golden rule -

never take one if you're feeling
Under the weather. Hm?

I should've told you.

Well, there's nothing to worry aboUt,
Colonel, you're in good shape.

You'II be in even better shape
when yoU leave.

Tomorrow we'll get down
to some real work.

Good lUck.

(Singing) "BeaUtifUI dreamer, wake Unto me

"Starlight and dewdrops.. ."

"Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me

"Starlight and dewdrops
are waiting for thee."

"Tra Ia-Ia Ia la

"La Ia-Ia Ia. .."

- Who's the voice?
- In the dreambox.

Dreambox?

That's Colonel Foster.
He had a lUIu in there yesterday.

Come on, Franklin!

If all else fails I'll remove that
blubber round yoUr middle sUrgically.

Gone are the cares of
life's busy throng

"Beautiful dreamer,
come wake unto me

"Beautiful dreamer,
come wake unto me."
