All language subtitles for UFO S01E17 - Sub-Smash

Radio SHADO Control.

No survivors.
Some evidence of U FO.

It must be that U FO that came in
a month ago under a radar blind spot.

If it stayed Underwater,
it would escape deterioration

in the Earth's atmosphere.

They coUId've slipped in an underwater
craft in component sections.

Possibly. They seem
to have perfected life maintenance

in a IipUid environment.

What do we do next?

A detailed search of the entire area.

- L'II go myself.
- In Skydiver?

- What else?
- Wouldn't yoU rather I took over?

Oh, that.

Well, the dictionary defines it as
a morbid dread of confined spaces.

- Skydiver's not that small.
- And yoU're not always morbid.

Exactly.

- Get me Skydiver's positional chart.
- (Woman) 'Yes, sir.'

It's in the south Atlantic area.
AboUt 400 miles south of St Helena.

Is there a rendezvous point where
we coUId exchange the sUb crews?

There are dozens of small atolls
in the area. Mostly uninhabited.

Good. I want to be aboard
with the best available crew

as soon as possible.

Switch to sea skim. PUII ahead boats.

(Horn blares)

Right.

I'm needed below, sir.
My cabin is at yoUr disposal.

Thank you, Captain.

Maintain sea skim
Until we reach search area.

Yes, sir.

D'you think we'II find anything?

Well, it's hard to say.

The more l think about it,
the more the theory stands up.

We know they've taken people
from houses in broad daylight.

- So it woUId be easier mid-ocean.
- Right.

(Foster) It's a big place
to play cat and moUse.

Yes. We'II have to make sure
our claws are well sharpened.

- How do yoU mean?
- We're trying to find them.

Let's hope the aliens don't think
that we're the mouse.

Approaching B-1 ?, sir.

- Right. Plot a search pattern.
- Yes, sir.

- Lieutenant.
- Sir.

I want a constant radar sweep
and sonar sounding.

Yes, sir.

(Beeping)

- Straker.
- We're making the first sweep,

then we'II go Under
for a sUbmerged circuit.

Carry on, Captain.

Let's make the most of
the fresh air.

- Starting vector search.
- CoUrse?

Zero-one-nine
veering to zero-two-three.

Decreasing sweep on 1 4 degrees port.

Right.

Maintain the watch, Colonel.
I'm going below.

Right.

Have you ever used this?

I asked if yoU had ever Used
the escape hatch.

Yes, sir - in training

Our navigator, Lewis - he's the one
yoU want to talk to about those.

Yes, sir.

- How's it going, Nina?
- Fine, sir.

- (Straker) What is it?
- Large shoal of fish.

- Sonar is oUr best bet.
- You're the expert.

- It's a tight ship, Captain.
- Thank you, sir.

Sonar echo increasing.

What do yoU make of it, LieUtenant?

Metallic object. Moving quite fast.

- 60 knots.
- How far?

2,000 yards increasing.

Get below, Colonel.
I'm taking her down.

Dive! Dive! Dive!

- What is it?
- An Underwater craft, sir.

Moving ahead of us.

Altering course.

Veering to starboard.

- Eight degrees.
- Eight degrees starboard .

Eight degrees starboard , sir.

Switch on Underwater cameras.

(Barry) Visibility poor, sir.

Rock formations.

We've Iost it.

- Anything?
- These rocks don't help.

(Piercing hum)

- Lieutenant Chin!
- Main systems still operating.

- Right, sUrtace!
- Load tanks one and two.

One and two.

- Looks bad.
- Let's get him down below.

Easy!

- (Beeping)
- Malfunction on one.

Keep trying those tanks.

- Hold it!
- Shut down ballast.

That was the starboard tUrbo.

- Commander, I'm getting a new signal.
- Coming back to finish the job.

It's heading away.
Toward the surtace.

- Can we IaUnch Sky 1 ?
- We can try.

All right, PaUI.

Alien craft airborne.

PUII it up, Paul.

- It's no good.
- What's its attitUde?

Ten degrees.

It's enoUgh. LaUnch Sky 1 .

- Liftoff.
- Roger.

Sky 1 airborne, sir.

Sky 1 to Control. Target destroyed.

Sky 1 to Control. Come in, Skydiver.

Contact lost, sir.

We're going down.
TUrbines non-functional.

- ShUt down the reactor.
- Yes, sir.

Prepare to switch to emergency power.

(Clanking)

We're still going down!

Emergency power. Crash positions.

Sky 1 to SHADO Control.

Overflying Iast known position.

Still no radio contact.

Wreckage apparent.
Re-docking negative.

(Man) 'Roger, Sky 1 .
Proceed to nearest SHADO base.

- 'Starting sub-smash procedure.'
- Roger.

(Crackling and bUzzing)

(Creaking)

(Radar beeping)

- Dye and marker bUoys released, sir.
- Good.

What about the power?

Well, we're not getting a warning alarm
from the reactor,

so the radiation shield mUst be OK.

That's something. At least we're not
gonna die from radiation exposUre.

Right, by now, Sky 1
will have reported our position,

so a rescue team will be on its way.

We all know the standing orders
regarding the sub-smash.

We jUst follow them,
we'II be all right.

Let's get to it. Colonel Foster,

- the air systems and electrics.
- Sir.

- Lieutenant Lewis.
- Sir.

Check the ballast tanks
and also the escape hatches.

- Yes, sir.
- LieUtenant Barry,

see what shape our
communications are in.

Yes, sir.

- How're you feeling, Chin?
- I'll be all right, sir.

Good, good.
We're gonna need you.

Are yoU Up to going to stern with me
and checking the tUrbines?

- Yes, sir.
- Good.

We may get this old tub off the shelf
before the rescue team gets here.

Yes, sir.

Albatross 25 to SHADO Control.

We have positive area location
on Skydiver beacon.

- Homing on signal now.
- (Man) 'Roger, AIbatross.'

Another 50 minutes.
What do yoU think?

No way of telling, sir.
SUb-smashes are always difficult.

I'd better check things out
in the cabin.

- Hello, sir.
- Sir.

We'II be there in less than 50
minutes. What are their chances?

Hard to say.

By the time we get there it could be
on the surtace, waiting for us.

That's not Iikely, is it?
The wreckage.

Until we get there, sir,
it's anyone's gUess.

(Beeping)

Nearly throUgh here, Commander.

How are things astern?

Not good .
One turbine completely blown,

and there's damage
to the reactor cooling plant.

That means we can forget
the main power supply.

How Iong will the emergency storage
batteries last, Chin?

Eight hours, and we can't recharge
withoUt the reactor.

Hmm. How about the air supply, Paul?

It's impossible to be accurate, bUt...

I estimate there's enoUgh air
for eight hoUrs.

AboUt the same as the batteries.

What's the story on
our commUnications, LieUtenant?

Main radio knocked oUt,
sonar and radar working.

The hydrophone on the marker bUoy
is active but the power is weak.

LieUtenant Lewis!

I hope you've got some good news
on those escape hatches.

Only nUmber three is operational, sir,
and that's got trouble.

It's working, bUt the systems check
indicates damage.

And there's something
wrong with the pUmps.

I reckon it'll take over 00 minUtes
to empty that hatch.

One escape hatch in commission, and
that's only Usable every 00 minutes.

- What aboUt the missile tUbes?
- No go, Commander.

The ship's angle rUIes them out.
The rock ledge is blocking the exits.

(Creaking)

So it looks like number three.

See if you can fix those pumps

- and double-check on those hatches.
- Yes, sir.

Paul, I'II be in the Captain's cabin.

Can you get any more speed
out of this thing?

Not withoUt blowing
our engines to pieces.

You know Commander Straker
pretty well, don't you?

Yes.

Pretty well.

(Creaking)

Well, PaUI?

Sighs) We've checked it again, sir.
Looks pretty bad.

Well, we'II have to start
making for the surface.

We've got to phase this carefUIIy.

We're working with very little air
and practically no time.

I'm a bit worried about the
outer door on three.

There's indication of severe damage.

- What aboUt the pUmps?
- Still no improvement.

With the reactor off,
the power's very low.

(Creaking)

What do we tell the crew?

Forget it. They've figured it oUt
for themselves already.

(Crackling)

Don't worry, Nina.
We'II get oUt all right.

You've been in this situation before,
haven't you?

Yeah. It was a big boat. Full crew -
60 men trapped on the bottom

but we all got out,
and we will this time, too.

All right.
Let's go over the sitUation.

There's only one regUIar
escape hatch still working

but its pUmps are damaged,
as well as its outside door.

BUt there is another
emergency escape roUte,

through the crash-dive flood tube.

BUt once its covers are blown, it can't
be drained unless Skydiver sUrtaces.

So that means
that we can only Use it once.

That tube is pretty narrow, sir.
It's some crawl.

I know that, Lieutenant, but it means
two of us will get oUt immediately.

That will leave
three of Us down here.

BUt if it takes 00 minUtes
to empty the hatch each time,

we can all be oUt of here
in four and a half hoUrs.

Are there any pUestions?

You said four and a half hoUrs,
but at best the air can last...

You're forgetting one thing, LieUtenant -
the fewer people there are down here,

the Ionger the air will last.

Have you decided on an
order of escape, sir?

Yes, I have.

LieUtenant Barry, you will Use
the crash-dive tUbe.

Yes, sir.

- Lewis.
- Sir.

You try the escape hatch first.

- But, sir. . .
- That's an order.

LieUtenant Chin will follow yoU,
and then Colonel Foster.

All right, Iet's get to it.

- Now, nina.
- Sir.

The crash-dive tube is
the safest way out.

BUt it won't be easy. When we throw
the control and the water comes in,

- it'II hit you Iike a sledgehammer.
- Yes, sir. l know.

I . .. Used it once during training.

- Good. It'II only last for a second .
- I'll manage.

The sooner yoU get out, the more air
there'll be for the rest of us.

There's no chance
of our surtace vessel

- getting to the area ahead of us?
- Forget it.

She's five hours away.
We're on our own.

There's only a slight swell.
We'II be able to handle it.

- AII set.
- Good.

Synchronise watches.

1 5:50.

- Check.
- Check.

We'II blow the hatch in five minutes,
LieUtenant. Good lUck.

Thank you, sir.

See yoU topside.

(Groans)

(Sighs)

- Right, Lewis.
- Yes, sir.

- I hope you make it.
- We will, LieUtenant.

FIood three.

(Creaking)

- Hatch flooded, sir.
- Check.

Negative. MUst be jammed.

(Piercing hum)

It's open. He's made it.

Nina shoUId be in position now.

Prepare to detonate in.. .
twenty seconds.

Ten seconds...

Detonate.

They should be Up by now.

Help me. Help me.

(Sobs)

(Screams) Straker!

We're all of us going to
get oUt OK, aren't we, sir?

SUre, Chin.

- How's the head?
- I'll be fine...

- when I get Up to the sUrtace.
- SUre. SUre.

JUst hang on, Chin. The rescUe team
will be here in no time.

Yes, sir.

What are his chances?

He won't Iast ten minutes
in the water without help.

(Beeping)

(Moans)

Try and rest, Chin.

We'II be out in one hoUr.

(Piercing hum)

(Beeping)

- Straker.
- 'Ed, it's me.'

Alec. Thank God.

- 'We've got Lewis.'
- What did yoU say?

I said, we've got Lewis.

He's puite safe. He's explained
the situation. Ed, jUst hang on.

- AIec, have yoU got Nina?
- 'Nina? No.'

She went out right after Lewis.

Don't worry. We'II get her.
We'II find her.

Look, Ed. YoU've got
to conserve your air supply.

JUst rest and stay as puiet as
possible. The divers are coming now.

- 'They'll get you up.'
- Alec. AIec!

Power's failing.

I'II check the escape pUmps.

They're slowing down.

Gasps) Help me.

Straker...

Someone!

(Moans)

(Moans)

- (Thud)
- (Chin groans)

He's burning Up.

T's all right.
Relax, LieUtenant. Relax.

(Groans)

- (Screams)
- (Straker) Stop him! PaUI!

- PaUl, get that equipment!
- (Chin gibbering)

(Foster)
LieUtenant Chin!

Chin!

(Screams)

Get him, PaUI! Get him!

- (Chin yelling)
- Hold him!

Hold him!

(Yelling)

He's out of it.

Straker.. . Help me.

(Foster) Poor guy.

You know,
death's never worried me before.

- Right now I'm scared.
- You're getting older.

How do you mean?

The older yoU get. ..
the more precious life becomes.

You become aware of what life is.

(Moaning)

(Gasping) Ohh...

- lt's time, sir.
- All right.

- Commander.. .
- Get moving!

- But, sir.
- Colonel Foster, get off this boat.

- Commander.
- You're breathing my oxygen.

In you go.

(Water gushing)

(Barry choking)

(Clanking)

- How does it Iook?
- She's jammed fast, sir.

The only sUre way of moving her
is by heavy lifting gear.

We'd need a salvage vessel for that.

Can we get an air sUpply
down there?

Negative. I was hoping to Use the
escape hatch but it's still flooded.

The pumps must have
packed Up completely.

It's hopeless.

You'II have to go down there again.

- And get me a sUit, will yoU?
- Sir!

- What you gonna do?
- I don't know.

BUt we're gonna
get him oUt of there somehow.

- (Banging)
- (Barry) Help me.

(Barry) Someone...

help me.

(Banging continues)

(Barry) Help me.

(Sobs)

- (Laughs)
- (Baby crying)

(Child) Dad, Dad!

(Car horn)

(Tyres screech)

Johnny!

(Sobbing)

Johnny! (Sobbing)

(Banging)

(Sobbing)

Mary.

Mary!

I never want to see you again.

(Banging)

The cover...

- The cover, it didn't...
- It's OK. lt's OK.

- We're sending them down now.
- (Freeman) 'Right.

'And send down some more lights.'

Right.

(Straker) 'Air pressure...

'falling.

'Oxygen coUnt...

'down to one-five...

'point one.

'Emergency power...

'failing.

'Commend ... Captain and crew.

'Note for Dr Schroeder -

'subject, myself.

'Pulse rate 1 05...

'claUstrophobia - negative.'

Don't think the book...

If it had to be anyone...

I'm glad you're here.

I mean,

I'm glad ...

it's yoU.

'Therefore, we commit oUrselves...

'to the deep.

'To be tUrned into corruption.

'Waiting for the day of resUrrection,

'when the sea
shall give up her dead .'

(Explosion)

(Laughs)

(Laughter echoes)

Oh! I don't believe it!

- So that's the way it happened.
- YoU jUst blew Us out of the water?

What else coUId we do?
It was Holden's idea.

With Skydiver off the ledge,

the divers got in
throUgh the missile tUbes.

I'm afraid the visitors
will have to leave now.

I'm sorry, sir. No smoking.

- Well, back to the salt mines.
- Bye.

Oh, thanks for the cigars, Alec.

Well, nina,
we were pretty close down there.

Yes.

If there was anything I said,
which, well...

Or didn't say?

That's what life's all aboUt,
I gUess. The things we never say.

Well, they're kicking me oUt of here.
I'd better go and pack my toothbrush.

- YoU'II be back on Moonbase soon.
- Yes, sir.

- Take it easy, Nina.
- Bye.
