[00:00:17]Hello and welcome to Gypsy Jay Replay.

[00:00:20]Grab your popcorn and settle in. Enjoy the show.

[00:00:27]Here in Marseilles, we all have an eye for the Yes. But uh this girl is different.

[00:00:59]This is funny. And Fanny is something very special to all of us.

[00:01:03]>> Yeah.

[00:01:04]>> And so so special that we we've made a picture about Fanny.

[00:01:09]>> Uh she's a very oh very attractive young girl as played by lovely Leslie Caron.

[00:01:15]And of course our film is also about men.

[00:01:18]>> Well, of course that doesn't need any explanation. Everybody knows that.

[00:01:24]>> Yeah. But uh what everybody doesn't know is that Fanny and her men live in Marseilles. Now uh how would you explain that?

[00:01:32]>> Ask your French man about Marseilles.

[00:01:36]He will answer Marseilles or he'll say um Mimi or Gabby or >> because in Marseilles they have a a great talent for enjoying life.

[00:01:54]Uh, look, take a little bit of Paris and a little bit of Brooklyn, >> a little bit of New Orleans and maybe a touch of San Francisco.

[00:02:06]And you have something that looks a little bit like Marseilles. After all, Marseilles is like no other place in the world. And of course, Fanny is like no other girl in the world.

[00:02:16]>> We all have something special for Fanny.

[00:02:19]Look, Cesar here whom you recognize as Charles Bu. He he made a a great sacrifice for Fanny >> and Penny's here with who is Morish of course under his mustache gave Fanny his most prized possession >> and that good-looking talented horse Bold who plays Marius. He gave plenty of trouble to her and the kind of trouble that funny wants or although she she might not know it.

[00:02:53]Were you lying to me last night?

[00:02:55]>> Oh, no. I was lying to you last night.

[00:02:58]>> Well, then you're lying to me now.

[00:03:00]>> Oh, God help me.

[00:03:07]Of all the love stories France has given to the world, this is the one to live in your memory.

[00:03:16]Of Fanny, who knew that one love is forever. of Marius, his eyes burning for the horizons he'd never seen. Of Penise, the irrepressible, a man with a secret of happiness.

[00:03:30]Of Cesar, hiding his heart behind the most terrifying scowl. And of Mama Honorim, a woman, no, a force of nature erupting in the most delightful performance of the decade.

[00:03:45]>> I saw that look in his eye. It was as close to passion as you can expect from a man of his age.

[00:03:53]>> Never too late. Too late for love. Never too late for love.

[00:03:59]>> If I ask your daughter to marry me, it won't be because of your threats, but because I love her.

[00:04:06]>> If If? What do you mean if?

[00:04:09]>> No, it's not my mother's decision. IT'S MINE.

[00:04:11]>> BUT IT'S MY DECISION THAT THIS MARRIAGE WILL NOT TAKE PLACE.

[00:04:15]You're a mad dog and you are to be shot.

[00:04:22]>> This is the gun. Shoot.

[00:04:23]>> Put that gun down.

[00:04:25]>> Bice.

[00:04:26]>> No.

[00:04:30]>> Yes. We of Mar say you have a great talent to enjoy life. So why don't you come along and enjoy it with us. Huh?

[00:05:07]A wooden doll, strangely, terrifyingly human, play thing of the devil, capable of such evil that only a cage can restrain its diabolical desire.

[00:05:23]It walks.

[00:05:27]It talks >> in Berlin 1948.

[00:05:36]Find me.

[00:05:39]>> It sees.

[00:05:42]It kills. On blood chilling command by thought control. You go.

[00:05:50]She said you were ugly.

[00:05:56]But somehow he's put a man's life into that doll.

[00:05:59]>> Somehow the malevolent mystery of the devil doll must be solved before more lives are lost to the monstrous power that manipulates it.

[00:06:08]>> Look into it.

[00:06:12]So deep and rich and red and warm.

[00:06:18]>> He's calling me mom.

[00:06:22]Please make it stop.

[00:06:26]>> But there are no obvious answers, no mechanical tricks, nothing but sheer horror that grows and grows and explodes into violent, murderous action.

[00:06:38]You'll learn the dummy sinister secret only at the very end of this most unusual suspense thriller. But for maximum shock sock, see it from the beginning.

[00:06:52]Devild.

[00:07:00]Pick a look, any hairstyle.

[00:07:04]Then pick a lilt and you'll get that hairstyle. Now for the first time, LILT brings you home premanence made and marked for the hairstyle you want. Right on the package, LILt tells you the style you'll get. Want a loose casual style?

[00:07:53]Llt, the only home permanent made and marked to give you the hairstyle you want.

[00:08:00]To all of you folks from Jersey City and points west, south, north, and east, I'd like to talk to you right now about Philips Milk of Magnesia toothpaste. If I may, you see, many dental authorities say that a major cause of tooth decay are mouth acids. And unfortunately, all of us happen to have mouth acids.

[00:08:16]Everybody, no matter what walk of life you're in, if you want to cut down on those mouth acids, then you want Philips toothpaste because there's a special ingredient in Phillips that neutralizes those mouth acids on contact, which is mighty, mighty important. Now, another very important thing about Phillips is its taste. It's got a really wonderful, cool, minty, nice spring flavor that you're going to love. It's hard to tell you exactly how a toothpaste tastes, but Julia will tell you where to get it so you can try for yourself and see what I mean.

[00:08:47]>> Well, mother, you can get Philips toothpaste at any local drug counter.

[00:08:50]And we hope you're not going to waste any time. Get some right away and you'll love it.

[00:08:54]>> All right. Remember, it's Philips toothpaste at drug counters everywhere.

[00:08:56]Woo!

[00:09:00]>> What's the best way to reduce? Eat what you want or starve yourself? Starve yourself? Wrong. A half empty stomach causes hunger tantrums. Now you can avoid hunger tantrums, lose weight naturally and fast. With the RDX full stomach reducing plan, you fill your stomach, yet fat just seems to melt away. And safe, pleasant tasting RDX tablets contain no dangerous drugs, no hormones. So if you want to eat and lose fat, get RDX at your drugstore today.

[00:09:29]>> Stopet asks, "What's your line?"

[00:09:32]>> I've got the busiest job in the whole world, American housewife. That means being on the go all day long. And it means looking my best at dinnertime, too. That's why I always use Stopet sprayed deodorant. It gives me protection I can be sure of, no matter what my day schedule calls for. It's so quick and so wonderfully convenient.

[00:09:56]Just a squeeze of the bottle and poof, there goes perspiration.

[00:10:01]Hold the bottle upright and you get this fine, misty spray.

[00:10:05]Yes. Here at last is the truly modern deodorant. No sticky fingers, no mess, no waste. Oops. But don't worry, that marvelous Stopet bottle can't break, leak, or spill. Find out for yourself why millions have turned from old-fashioned deodorants to the new convenience, new effectiveness of Stopet. At your favorite drug or cosmetic counter, ask for stop at spray deodorant.

[00:10:37]>> There goes perspiration.

[00:10:40]Here is a word from the Tony folks.

[00:10:45]The upandcoming hairstyles are sleek 20 curl hairstyles, perky short 20 curl hairstyles, smooth long 20 curl hairstyles. There's no end to the smart new 20 curl hairstyles. You can perfectly wave with tip Tony the 20 curl permanent. The first permanent custommade for these new hairstyles and for between permanent stragglers. Only half the curlers to wind. Actually half the work. Tip Tony is the same as Tony only smaller and cost just 125. You get fresh fresh air waving lotion in a sealed bottle every time. Just the right amount for 20 curls. There's no end to the 20 curl hairstyles you can have with Tip Tony. The only 20 curl permanent in three types of lotions. One just right for you.

[00:11:42]One hand behind my back. Well, I wonder what Betty Fess is going to do with one hand behind her back like that.

[00:11:50]>> Come with me and I'll show you what every one of you can do single-handed.

[00:11:55]Here you can tune in this wonderful new Westinghouse television set with just one hand like this because it has the sensational new Westinghouse single dial control. There's no more fussing with several dials. You just turn this one dial and you're tuned in perfectly. Now in the set that you're watching now, does a channel ever come in like this and give you only sound? Or when the picture comes in clear like this, is the sound ever so hard to get that all you hear is this?

[00:12:30]Well, that never happens with this wonderful new Westinghouse set because of the miracle of Westinghouse synchro tuning. Picture and sound come in together just like that. And once tuned, this set stays locked in tune. Now, here's something that will really amaze you. Here's the size of the screen in most table models. Now, let's compare it with this new Westinghouse screen there. Now, that's quite a difference, isn't it? Engineering improvements give you a huge 17 in rectangular screen in this wonderfully compact new Westinghouse set. And it gives you a black glass tube, which means that you get a clear, sharp picture even in daylight. Now, this set also has a built-in antenna. And that means that in many areas there's no installation of any kind. You save the entire cost of it. So why put up with a set that isn't really up to date and has an old-fashioned small screen when you can get this wonderful new 17in Westinghouse set at a modest price. Just ask your dealer for the Westinghouse Lynwood.

[00:13:40]There's no other set in its price range that compares with it. You can be sure if it's Westinghouse.

[00:13:51]>> If you prefer a long cigarette, try Cavaliers, the great new king-size cigarette made by the makers of Camels.

[00:13:57]King-size Cavaliers give you mildness where it really counts, in the feel of the smoke. So, inhale. Feel that light extra mildness in the smoke of a Cavalere. Cavaliers are king-size yet priced no higher than leading regulariz brands. So, try Cavaliers. Feel that mildness. Taste that flavor. That's a Cavalier.

[00:14:23]>> Stop. I wonder what Betty Fess wants to stop for. Let's ask her.

[00:14:29]I want to stop you from being fooled by some of the things you hear these days about selfdeosting refrigerators. Now, there are so many different claims that I think perhaps the best way to clear it up is for me to show you this. The one refrigerator in the whole world that never needs defrosting anytime or any place. The wonderful new Westinghouse frostfree refrigerator. Now, perhaps you've seen this claim. Well, now, of course, there's no reason to defrost any refrigerator here in the middle shelves.

[00:15:04]Up here is where those words belong. up on the freeze chest. The only place in any refrigerator where frost ever builds up. But there's never any need to defrost any part of this Westinghouse refrigerator because it always keeps itself frostfree.

[00:15:20]Now, have you ever seen this claim?

[00:15:26]Now, what is the point in a refrigerator defrosting itself every night? Well, there's no point at all because unless you're opening the door constantly, there's no reason to defrost the refrigerator every night. This Wasting House frostfree refrigerator defrosts itself only when it's actually needed.

[00:15:45]The very moment that frost starts to build up. Now, here's something that I want you to see. Here's what happens to ice cream and other so-called automatic refrigerators during defrosting. You see, the ice cream melted. The flavors ran together and then it froze up again.

[00:16:02]But now look at this ice cream. In the Westinghouse Frost-Free refrigerator, ice cream stays hard and firm like this all the time because defrosting takes place so fast that nothing in the freeze chest has even the meest chance to melt.

[00:16:18]Now, some refrigerators that claim to be automatic don't get rid of the defrost water. And then you have to empty messy drip pans. Oh dear, that happens so often. But with the Westinghouse frostfree refrigerator, the moment that frost starts to build up here on the freeze chest, the magic frostfree system goes to work. It quickly melts what little frost has gathered, the tiny amount of defrost water is drained off and is automatically evaporated. So when you buy a new refrigerator, why don't you get the most automatic one of all?

[00:16:54]The only refrigerator that is always frostfree.

[00:16:59]Remember, you can be sure if it's Westinghouse.

[00:17:05]>> Don't dare buy that automatic till you've seen it wash.

[00:17:08]>> All right, let's do a load in our demonstration tumbler with Dash.

[00:17:11]>> Dash, >> the detergent Montgomery Ward packs at the factory in every Imperial washerdryer.

[00:17:18]>> Any soap would do.

[00:17:21]>> Not for modern automatics. Safe suding dash prevents over suding machine failures.

[00:17:26]>> You'll have cleaning failures without heaping suds.

[00:17:30]>> Well, now our demonstration towels are particularly dirty. Dash gives us the best cleaning possible. That's one reason Wards recommends Dash.

[00:17:39]>> Rather have a woman's word on cleaning.

[00:17:41]>> More women use Dash in these machines than any other product. But judge for yourself. Remember, the Wards Imperial has four wash cycles. It washes and dries with two simple settings while Dash keeps suds safe.

[00:17:55]>> Incredible cleaning. Sign the sale slip, Ethel, and never use anything but Dash.

[00:18:03]NOW, HERE'S A friendly warning for you.

[00:18:05]YOU BETTER HURRY IF YOU WANT TO TAKE advantage of Double Dandrin's great twoin one sale.

[00:18:10]>> All right, speaking of two in one sales, again, I want to say, and I'll keep repeating this and repeating until you folks go down to those drug counters. I need two of us to talk about this twoin one sale. Now, if you can bear up with it, we have two Denny Jameses. They're both the same size and both just as horrible. You all set? All right. He's all here with me. So, what both of us are saying in unison, look, it's double danger. It's a twoin- one sale. A regular 70 cent value for only 47. Two 35 cent bottles of double danger for only 47 cents. So, act quickly. As thousands of men and women know from experience, double danderine is unlike ordinary preparations that really remove loose dandruff. Double danderine, you see, kills the germ pio pommo valley on contact. And it's been revealed by outstanding authorities that this germ is the cause of most common kind of dandruff. Because double danderine destroys it, it gives you the real dandruff relief you want. Even in some of the most severe cases of dandruff, results with double danderine have been remarkable. So remember, mother, double dandrin special twoin- one sale is being made for a limited time only. So don't wait. Today on tonight's shore, go to any drug or toilet goods counter and get two regular 35 cent bottles of double danderine for only47.

[00:21:46]>> Hello everybody. Halo >> Halo Shampoo presents the inside story of the Wolf and Little Red Riding Hood.

[00:21:55]>> Hi Red Riding Hood. Where you going?

[00:21:57]>> That's a pretty silly question from a wolf. That's why I'm going to grandma's for a shampoo. And don't try any funny business.

[00:22:03]>> Shampoo? Hey, just a minute. What do you use for shampoo?

[00:22:07]>> This stuff?

[00:22:08]>> Why?

[00:22:09]>> Ah, it's no wonder your hair looks like a bail of hay. Don't you know soaping dulls hair? Halo glorifies it.

[00:22:15]>> You're sure this isn't just one of your tricks?

[00:22:18]>> No, I've turned honest. Come on, let's go to your grandma's house. I'll give you the best shampoo you ever had. Halo.

[00:22:25]Halo. Halo. Shampoo. Halo.

[00:22:29]>> Remember, soaping dulls hair. Halo glorifies it, leaves it fragrant, dandruff free, and wonderfully easy to manage.

[00:22:39]>> So, hello everybody. Halo. Halo.

[00:22:43]Shampoo. Halo.

[00:22:46]>> Hi there. I'm Jane Meadow.

[00:22:50]That little story shows that any kind of a wolf appreciates glorified hair. And hair that's been washed with halo shampoo is really glorified. So shining, so easy to manage. So why not glorify your hair with halo? It's America's favorite shampoo.

[00:23:11]>> Would you wear shoes that fit like this or a suit that fits this way? Of course not.

[00:24:09]You know, the days of old-fashioned, unstyle conscious mothers are about as outused as old-fashioned brass lipstick.

[00:24:16]Here's Barbara Britain to tell you more about it.

[00:24:19]>> Modern mothers may be old-fashioned on the inside, but they want to be the picture of glamour and style on the outside. So, I'd like to suggest something special for her on Mother's Day. What could be more appropriate, more appreciated than a fabulous Futurama like this? Here's a gift she'll treasure. Futurama in her choice of stunning Revlon lipstick shades with the look of luxury she wants and delights in showing off. Look at the gorgeous Futurama of brushed silver plate at a price even Junior can afford. And remember, you're giving mother a permanent case so that all she need ever buy again when she wants a new lipstick is a Revlon refill. See, just click out the old refill, click in the new. That means when she gets her Revlon refills, she'll save 35 cents on every single lipstick she buys. So with Futurama, you're making a wise investment for her.

[00:25:12]While you add a smart touch of jewelry look to her lipstick, she can feel glamorous without your being extravagant with Futurama by Revlon.

[00:25:24]>> No point in racking your brains about what to get her for Mother's Day.

[00:25:27]Futurama is a natural. Remember, Futurama comes complete with her choice of any Revlon lipstick. Get it tomorrow.

[00:28:10]Thank you. Try it.

[00:28:15]First, you know there's an old saying that everybody talks about the weather, but nobody does anything about it. Well, it ain't necessarily. So, there's something you can do any day if you hear a weather report like this.

[00:28:26]>> Temperature 75, humidity 98%, showers throughout the day.

[00:28:31]>> Oh, yes, girls. There'll be many days that are hot and humid and horrible for your hair. But you can do something about it.

[00:28:40]You can set your curls with satin set.

[00:28:42]Revlon's pin curl spray set and never worry about the weather. Your hair is at the mercy of the elements when you only set it with water like this. You have no protection from heat and humidity and your curls just collapse. But instead of ftting, you could be setting your curls with satin set. Curls that will last for days, stay soft and springy, unruffled by even the worst sort of weather. And satin set has no lacquer. So remember, for hair that stays softly and gently in place, for longerlasting pin curls that end nightly pin-ups forever, use Revlon Satin Set, the pin curl spray set. And in just five extra seconds, you can set pin curls that last twice as long. Yes, girls, get satin set in the large economy size first thing tomorrow. Thank you.

[00:31:03]Spaceship Bravo Zulu 88.

[00:31:06]Destiny Galaxy M12.

[00:31:10]Assignment outer space.

[00:31:43]The editor of my paper assigned me to cover a routine check of infraration flux on Galaxy M12.

[00:32:09]The crew members in order to overcome the earthly gravity have been subjected to a state of hibernation. That is the human body put through a congaling process simulating an apparent death.

[00:32:25]At a preset time, under the impulses of an electric brain, the heart resumes its normal beat. The lungs begin their regular functioning, the blood flowing evenly again. In short, man is reacquiring his earthly faculties.

[00:32:46]Heat.

[00:33:02]Heat.

[00:33:28]To counteract the state of weightlessness caused by lack of gravitation, special magnetic boots are provided to control the balance of space travelers.

[00:34:08]While the crew and I were still in a state of hibernation, the engineer pilot Al reported our approach to international satellite Zulu extra.

[00:34:17]Extra 34.

[00:34:19]>> Bravo Zulu 88. Calling Zulu extra 34.

[00:34:38]>> Any news to relay?

[00:34:40]>> The usual nauseio and awakening my boy.

[00:34:44]Bravo Zulo 88 has entered orbit of your satellite. Bravo Zulo 88 closing electronic brain. Over.

[00:34:53]>> Roger. Everything's in your hands again.

[00:34:55]Al.

[00:35:00]>> We've already been informed. Reporter.

[00:35:03]Eh, did you wake up yet?

[00:35:04]>> No, not yet. I haven't brought him his coffee.

[00:35:09]Bravo Zulo 88, requesting your position.

[00:35:12]Coordinate Pi 2 1 over.

[00:35:14]>> Okay, I'll send you the reporter as soon as possible. Bravo Zulu 88 closing.

[00:35:23]>> Hello, Archie. How you feeling, >> man? This time I had a dream.

[00:35:28]>> You had a dream? What about?

[00:35:30]>> I dreamt I was sleeping.

[00:35:34]>> Take over the controls while I wake up the baby.

[00:35:37]>> Al, is it true when we took off, you sang him a lullabi? That's right. Just call me space weters.

[00:35:43]>> Next time, why don't you just bring a cow along?

[00:35:46]>> A pacifier would do.

[00:35:50]>> Bravo Zulu 88 calling extra 34.

[00:35:53]>> Over.

[00:35:53]>> Go ahead. Bravo Zulu 88.

[00:36:05]Heat. Heat.

[00:36:42]To come out of a state of hibernation is an eerie sensation.

[00:36:47]I didn't know who or where I was until I heard Al's voice. Hi there, spaceman.

[00:36:57]>> Hello.

[00:36:58]>> This was not my first space flight.

[00:37:02]Previous assignments for my newspaper had sent me to the moon many times, but never into the vast reaches of deep space.

[00:37:12]I feared that 10 days in a cramped ship with a crew of seven men who would resent a reporter's questions and lack of usefulness might make me an unpopular passenger.

[00:37:24]The coffin was much too small.

[00:37:32]Couldn't you have found me a bigger one to sleep in? We didn't have one, leech.

[00:37:39]Why do you call me that?

[00:37:41]>> No offense, kid. It just means that here you're a parasite.

[00:37:48]>> Where are we now?

[00:37:49]>> Outside.

[00:37:51]>> Outside what?

[00:37:52]>> Outside everything.

[00:37:57]>> Breakfast is served.

[00:37:59]>> Bravo, Zulu 88, you're directly in line with us.

[00:38:02]>> We'll send you that reporter as soon as possible.

[00:38:06]>> Hey, Al, they're asking for the boy.

[00:38:11]Hey. Hey, Al. Al, what's happening?

[00:38:14]We're off to bad start.

[00:38:16]>> Calm down, my boy. You'll get along fine. Just control your nerves.

[00:38:24]There.

[00:38:26]From now on, you'll be able to hear my instructions. Just remember to regulate your volume knob.

[00:38:31]Hey, you're forgetting the tools of your trade.

[00:38:51]What's the matter, Sunny?

[00:38:53]>> Cut it out. Al, >> are you scared, son?

[00:38:58]>> Stop treating me like a greenhorn.

[00:39:00]>> But that's what you are, my boy.

[00:39:02]>> I took the accelerated course before I started on this trip. It probably was too quick.

[00:39:09]I'm not going to take all the air out of the decompression chamber. You'll have an easier exit. I'll give you a count from 20 to one. And out you go.

[00:39:17]>> I know what to do.

[00:39:20]>> Son, you don't know anything yet.

[00:39:29]>> Don't touch the metal frame around the hatch. Minus 20.

[00:39:33]>> Why? Can you see me?

[00:39:36]No, but the first time out they all behave the same way.

[00:39:43]Minus 15.

[00:39:46]>> India Zulu 41. You ready? 5 4 >> Wait a second.

[00:39:51]>> 2 1 Out you go.

[00:39:54]>> Al was absolutely right. I was scared.

[00:40:06]The artificial satellite is like an island in the sky. In order not to disturb its calculated orbital chart, we lined up 2,000 ft parallel to it. The only way to get there was to float through the terrifying void between us.

[00:40:43]Keep talking, Al.

[00:40:45]>> What do you want to hear? Fairy tale?

[00:40:47]>> Explain to me what's going on.

[00:40:49]>> That's something you'll have to find out for yourself. You're still afraid?

[00:40:53]>> Yes.

[00:40:56]Of what? I don't know.

[00:40:59]You're still there. Say something.

[00:41:03]A chilly sense of emptiness.

[00:41:06]Do you understand me? Al >> sure I understand.

[00:41:10]Every baptism has its mystery. Even out here in space.

[00:41:15]>> I've never felt so lonely.

[00:41:21]Hey, Al. Maybe if I try to turn around.

[00:41:26]I did it. Al, I'm turning. India Zulu 41. Get back to normal position. You're at the end of your trip.

[00:41:56]Once aboard Zulu Extra 34, I passed through the decompression chamber. I now regained my normal weight because the gravitational area was similar to our Earths. The reason for this being all space stations rotate around a central axis.

[00:42:24]In the ship's cabin, I was met by King 116, the doctor in charge of all crew members physical and mental health.

[00:42:33]>> Take off your space suit and report to the commander. He's waiting for you.

[00:42:40]>> Hey, what kind of a guy is our reporter?

[00:42:43]He still smells earthy.

[00:43:13]Special correspondent Ray Peterson reporting to the commander.

[00:43:19]I've heard you're rather famous on Earth.

[00:43:21]>> Well, I see my fame has reached the stars.

[00:43:24]>> But let me give you a bit of advice.

[00:43:27]>> Here among the stars, it is better not to be quite so cocky. You are only here to do a job.

[00:43:34]>> Don't worry. That's all I intend to do.

[00:43:37]>> On condition that you don't interfere with ours. You've arrived here at a critical moment.

[00:43:43]>> So much the better. Peace and tranquility don't have any news value.

[00:43:56]Sullivan.

[00:43:57]>> Yes, sir.

[00:43:57]>> How long would it take to reinstall the terminal stages to the spaceship that arrived from Earth just now?

[00:44:01]>> That all depends, sir. We only have two mechanics on board.

[00:44:04]>> Cancel all rest periods. The ship must be ready as soon as possible. I must go to base 12 on Mars.

[00:44:09]>> Yes, sir.

[00:44:10]>> You talk about Mars as if it were just down the street.

[00:44:14]>> There are no streets here.

[00:44:17]I firmly oppose your unwelcome visit.

[00:44:22]>> Are you trying to flatter me?

[00:44:23]>> But the high command refused to listen to me. It's apparent that you have quite a pull there.

[00:44:28]>> Not me. But my organization has.

[00:44:32]>> Don't forget, Peterson, that everything you put on your tape recorder will have to be sent by me before it's sent back to Earth. Here, everything is regulated by machines. You'll find that things are very different here. You may go now.

[00:44:45]Later on, you'll be shown your quarters.

[00:44:55]Working crews ready, sir.

[00:44:58]Any changes?

[00:45:02]No, Sullivan.

[00:45:16]Where's everybody going for a picnic?

[00:45:19]>> The working crew is leaving on a space detail.

[00:45:22]>> What if I wanted to go along to get some air?

[00:45:25]>> You'd have to go and ask the commander for authorization.

[00:45:29]>> Is it necessary?

[00:45:31]>> Absolutely necessary.

[00:45:35]>> Okay.

[00:45:41]Hoping this special detail might make a good story, I went outside without permission to observe and photograph it.

[00:45:49]This special detail was a refueling operation, one of the most dangerous and delicate operations in space flights.

[00:45:56]The engineers carried an enormous tube from the space station and carefully attached it to a rear valve on our ship.

[00:46:06]Thousands of gallons of precious neo hydroen were being pumped into our fuel tanks in order for us to go on to Mars.

[00:46:17]>> Look out the meteorite.

[00:46:19]>> Suddenly, I saw a fiery ball racing toward the cosminaut next to me. I pushed him out of the way, but the subsequent reaction caused me to bounce against the connection of the fuel valve, disconnecting it and letting the irreplaceable neohhydroine escape.

[00:46:36]Close the fuel valves.

[00:46:43]>> Lost 500 gallons of hydraine.

[00:46:53]Lost.

[00:46:54]>> I'm sorry.

[00:46:56]>> Furthermore, you went without my permission.

[00:46:59]I said I'm sorry even though I saved a man's life.

[00:47:04]>> You didn't come here to be a hero.

[00:47:07]>> The damage you have just caused is much more serious than the mere loss of a life.

[00:47:13]>> Evidently, Commander, my way of thinking must seem prehistoric to you. I thought nothing was worse than the loss of a human being. But then I only saved a number. Yankee 13. I didn't even see his face. Maybe he hasn't got one.

[00:47:30]I knew that you were going to give me trouble.

[00:47:32]>> I see you're a psychologist, too.

[00:47:34]>> Now, look here, Peterson. Let's get this straight. From now on, you must ask permission for everything you do. And you won't ask me for it.

[00:47:42]>> That's an improvement.

[00:47:43]>> You'll have to ask my second in command.

[00:47:45]And I'm afraid you'll find that he's tougher than I am. You may go now.

[00:47:51]You may go.

[00:47:54]>> First commander, tell me one thing. Why do you deny me the honor of talking to you?

[00:48:03]>> I'm leaving, Peterson.

[00:48:34]Hey, buddy.

[00:48:37]I'm King 116.

[00:48:40]Pardon me for not having called you by name. Allow me. India 041.

[00:48:45]>> What do you want?

[00:48:47]>> I'm looking for someone. Excuse me. I'm looking for a number. Yankee 13. He was injured. He should be around here somewhere.

[00:48:56]>> Just dismissed. It was nothing but simple shock. Have a look in the biochemical lab.

[00:49:02]>> Please excuse my curiosity, Mr. King.

[00:49:06]116.

[00:49:17]May I come in?

[00:49:20]Hey, spaceman.

[00:49:29]>> Are you addressing me?

[00:49:31]>> Yes, but you're a >> Go on.

[00:49:35]>> You're a girl.

[00:49:37]And you're selling flowers, too.

[00:49:39]>> There are no flowers here. These are diaspora.

[00:49:42]>> Even with a name like that, they're flowers. They serve the purpose of changing hydrogen into breathable oxygen and are as necessary here as the air is on Earth.

[00:49:55]>> It is still >> if you like.

[00:50:00]>> You sell them?

[00:50:02]>> I'm afraid not.

[00:50:04]>> Maybe we can make a deal.

[00:50:07]>> What do you mean?

[00:50:08]>> Honestly, you won't have to send them anywhere.

[00:50:12]I'll pay you for them, but then here. Why not?

[00:50:19]>> Do you work in this section?

[00:50:22]>> Sometimes, >> but I'm really a navigator.

[00:50:27]When I'm not working with the Astro Compass, I like to substitute for the section chemist.

[00:50:34]But tell me, why do you want to offer them to me?

[00:50:37]>> Oh, no particular reason. Just to celebrate the second smiling face I run into. Als was the first. And now I find you. Speaking of you, what's your name?

[00:50:48]I don't mean your numbers, serials, codes, but just your name.

[00:50:52]>> Lucy.

[00:50:54]>> Lucy.

[00:50:55]>> Do you like it?

[00:50:56]>> It's not bad. My uncle had a mascot with that name. It was quite cute. I liked it very much. It was a monkey.

[00:51:06]>> Thank you.

[00:51:07]>> No, really. She was very cute. I meant it as a compliment.

[00:51:12]Very flattering, Mr. Peterson.

[00:51:15]>> Do you know my name, too?

[00:51:18]>> Of course.

[00:51:21]I've already heard about you from George. You know, the commander, >> my old friend. But doesn't the commander have a number like everybody else?

[00:51:31]>> Not for me.

[00:51:34]And now, if you'll forgive me, I've got work to do.

[00:51:39]>> Yankee 13.

[00:51:44]I forgot. Thank you, Ray.

[00:51:49]I really mean it. Thanks.

[00:51:57]>> Following the order from the commander, Al came over to our ship to pilot a space taxi from which I could photograph a passage of asteroids.

[00:52:06]>> India Zulu 41, we just made it. I bet you this was the most interesting action shot of your career.

[00:52:13]>> Yeah, shooting these rocks is sure something.

[00:52:16]>> They're not rocks, my son. They're asteroids. Each of them, 1700 ft in diameter.

[00:52:26]The commander bowled me out for the loss of 500 gallons of hydroine when I saved a life and a girl's too. So you have a weakness for the weakest sex. And she doesn't even call him sir, just George.

[00:52:38]Buy all the rates around Sar. They were right when they called you a medley. Now he's ashamed of that. Hold tight now.

[00:52:45]I'm going to make a sharp journey.

[00:52:52]>> Who is ashamed? George. You understand him?

[00:52:57]>> Is it true that George is leaving?

[00:52:59]>> Yes.

[00:53:00]>> And Lucy? Will she go with him?

[00:53:02]>> I'm sorry for you, but that's exactly what she'll do. Something very serious is going on and all you can talk about is this nonsense. We're leaving for Mars.

[00:53:10]>> Wait, you too, Al?

[00:53:11]>> Yes.

[00:53:13]>> Can't you tell me more about it?

[00:53:14]>> Top secret.

[00:53:15]>> Sulu extra 34 to space taxi Bravo 91.

[00:53:19]Hurry back to base. Over.

[00:53:20]>> Roger. From Bravo 91.

[00:53:24]>> Al, can I radio my Earth base?

[00:53:27]>> Sure. You think you're still living back in the 21st century? Thanks. You better lowering your head now. Are we moving back into the satellite?

[00:53:35]>> I wanted to join this Mars expedition.

[00:53:38]Only an order from the high command on Earth could persuade the commander to take me with him.

[00:53:43]>> I don't understand. What's making the pilot so late? He promised to join us immediately. Sir, >> Al's really a strange type.

[00:53:51]>> He's the best there is.

[00:53:59]>> I'm sorry to be late, sir. We've been waiting for you. The situation has become worse. We've got to leave immediately.

[00:54:07]>> And you haven't been able to contact Alpha 2?

[00:54:09]>> No.

[00:54:11]>> Alpha 2 does not answer.

[00:54:13]>> We think the pilot may be dead.

[00:54:22]>> This could mean the end.

[00:54:24]That's what I'm afraid of.

[00:54:27]>> India Zulu 41 wishes to speak with you, sir.

[00:54:30]Let him talk to the second in command.

[00:54:32]You take care of him, Sullivan.

[00:54:34]>> He refuses to do so. He says he has a very urgent communication for you.

[00:54:39]>> Send him in.

[00:54:46]That's all we needed. This inquisitive, interfering meddler.

[00:54:52]>> He's a pretty nice guy.

[00:54:55]>> Do you think so?

[00:55:16]This is absurd.

[00:55:18]>> Commander, you are insulting the high command.

[00:55:21]>> Absolutely against all regulations.

[00:55:23]>> Any more criticisms?

[00:55:24]>> Yes.

[00:55:25]>> So have I. But I keep them to myself.

[00:55:33]>> Gentlemen, prepare to leave.

[00:55:47]>> Yankee 13. One moment, please.

[00:55:49]>> Yes.

[00:55:53]>> What is it, George?

[00:55:59]That man Peterson has persuaded the high command to let him come with us. It's an order.

[00:56:04]>> Aren't you exaggerating?

[00:56:07]>> I can't increase the crew.

[00:56:10]>> Can't you do without the radio operator?

[00:56:12]We'll get along just as well.

[00:56:14]>> No, >> I prefer to do without you.

[00:56:20]>> Me?

[00:56:23]I would not want my choice influenced by opinions that are not objective.

[00:56:29]Anyway, I think I could get along better without a navigator than without a radio operator.

[00:56:35]>> If I weren't the navigator, then would you give up taking one with you?

[00:56:43]>> Perhaps not.

[00:56:44]>> You see, you're not being objective.

[00:56:48]Besides, I don't want to be left behind, George.

[00:56:51]It's not that I pretend to be of more value than the high command is, but I'm not of less value either.

[00:56:57]>> You aren't giving me an order, are you?

[00:57:00]>> No, I'm just begging you.

[00:57:04]>> I understand you, George. I know that you always try to be worthy of your position, but you'd be better off if for once you try what?

[00:57:14]>> To be worthy of yourself.

[00:57:27]I'm sorry, George.

[00:57:45]Lucy's plea to the commander was effective. When we left the artificial satellite and returned to our spaceship, Bravo Zulu 88, Lucy was aboard and set our course for Mars. Is the nose still turned up?

[00:57:59]>> Don't be silly. The nose of a spaceship is always up, even when landing.

[00:58:03]>> He's not referring to the spaceship, Al.

[00:58:05]He's talking about me.

[00:58:06]>> My congratulations, Commander.

[00:58:09]>> Listen, Peterson. Remember, you're extraneous here. So, please keep to your place.

[00:58:13]>> What place?

[00:58:16]I don't even have a chair to sit on.

[00:58:18]>> Look, there two CS in there that you can use when we haven't a chance to rest.

[00:58:23]>> Oh, while the rest of you are working, I'm supposed to sleep.

[00:58:26]>> There are times when all children should go to bed.

[00:58:28]>> Yeah.

[00:58:34]Listen, ever since we came on this trip, you've all done your very best to make me feel like an outsider.

[00:58:42]>> My congratulations, Peterson.

[00:59:02]What the devil is going on?

[00:59:04]>> I don't know, sir. It looks like it might be a magnetic storm.

[00:59:07]>> Impossible.

[00:59:08]>> Listen to the wave boom, sir. Look, Captain.

[00:59:22]Give me its position.

[00:59:24]>> Coordinate 113.

[00:59:26]Inertial position of object 512.

[00:59:30]>> Try to establish contact. It looks like a moon ship.

[00:59:36]>> Bravo 088. Bravo 088 to unidentified object. Over.

[00:59:44]They're asking for help, sir.

[00:59:46]>> Switch to voice circuit.

[00:59:57]>> Metro Sierra 13, Metro Sierra 13 to Bravo Zulu 88. Over.

[01:00:03]>> Bravo Zulu 88 to Metro Sierra 13. Go ahead. Over.

[01:00:06]>> Tanks are exploded. Engines have failed.

[01:00:09]We are out of control and being attracted to Mars. Over.

[01:00:13]>> Try to get back into the orbit around Mars. We'll attempt rescue. What caused the explosion? Over.

[01:00:19]>> Impossible to say. A sudden rush of hot air overpowered us. The instruments have gone crazy. The tanks have exploded. The structures melted in several places.

[01:00:27]>> What about the crew?

[01:00:29]>> Three of us left. Sir, one dead.

[01:00:36]The engineer. Put on your space suits and stand by for immediate bailout as soon as you enter orbit. Radio out.

[01:00:42]Disconnect the voice circuit.

[01:00:46]>> Do you think they'll make it?

[01:00:48]>> That's what I'm checking. No.

[01:00:50]>> Are you thinking the same thing I am now?

[01:00:53]>> They can't make it.

[01:00:54]>> Why not?

[01:00:59]>> No, we won't be able to make it. One of Mars satellites is crossing our path.

[01:01:05]Drive the engines again.

[01:01:12]David. David.

[01:01:18]David. Don't.

[01:01:21]David. It's suicide. Don't jump.

[01:01:24]>> I don't feel like ending my days in a trial.

[01:01:31]>> David, don't.

[01:01:38]What are you doing?

[01:01:40]>> Can you make it?

[01:01:45]>> I'm climbing.

[01:01:47]One of my engines has started. I'm climbing.

[01:01:53]Lighter. I can make it. I'm getting lighter. I can make it. No.

[01:02:04]Start the engines and get ready for a vertical landing.

[01:02:09]>> We will fly above Phobus now.

[01:02:22]Engines at seven gamas.

[01:02:38]Now engines at 8 gamas.

[01:02:46]Look there to the right perhaps.

[01:02:54]Entrance at 11 gamas.

[01:03:04]>> Gerald's unlocked. Moving to vertical position.

[01:03:20]Engines of 12 g.

[01:03:24]What's going on?

[01:03:25]>> We're going down, Parat.

[01:03:26]>> But it's insane. With all stages full of fuel, we're like a bomb.

[01:03:33]>> Landing area at 2° off our coordinate, just below us.

[01:03:37]>> Engines at 14 g.

[01:03:44]Engines at 16 g.

[01:03:55]Engine.

[01:04:22]Put on your space suit, Leech. You're coming to help rescue that poor guy. The captain sits 9° to starboard.

[01:04:51]One more and we would have remained here forever.

[01:05:09]He's still alive. Let's hurry up.

[01:05:11]Captain, we're coming in.

[01:05:14]>> Lucy, keep the gyros working. As soon as they're inside, we'll get out of here.

[01:05:25]You stay here and look after it.

[01:05:30]I'll take care of the entrance.

[01:05:35]>> Gyros unlocked.

[01:05:36]>> Roger.

[01:06:11]How is it?

[01:06:12]>> Bad.

[01:06:14]>> I think you hold out till we get to Mars. We're almost there anyway, aren't we?

[01:06:18]>> No.

[01:06:19]What do you mean? No.

[01:06:20]>> We've changed course. We're now heading for Venus.

[01:06:23]>> You're what?

[01:06:26]>> A direct order from the high command.

[01:06:28]>> And you accepted it.

[01:06:43]>> Do you realize, commander, there's a dying man in there? I don't have to account to you for my actions.

[01:06:48]>> Look, Captain, I'm picking up an area of intense heat. It's almost as hot as the photonic field of the sun itself.

[01:06:57]>> Turn on the safety system.

[01:06:59]>> I think you should tell him, sir. It's no longer top secret.

[01:07:05]Alpha 2, propelled by phatonic energy, is now without a pilot. She is floating in space and is only controlled by the electronic brain. The platonic heat which our radar has picked up has the power of destruction and death.

[01:07:23]Alpha 2 has re-entered the solar system.

[01:07:25]During the sun's next revolution, she will start to orbit around the Earth and will destroy it completely, burning everything and eliminating all forms of life. Have we any hope of stopping her?

[01:07:39]>> That's why we're going to Venus. It's the nearest point to the elliptical path of Alpha 2.

[01:07:46]We have but one chance in a million.

[01:07:54]Our world was in danger, about to be destroyed, perhaps in a few days, maybe in a few hours. It was up to us, a handful of cosminauts from Earth, millions of miles away, to try and save humanity.

[01:08:10]Lucy, you're crying.

[01:08:19]>> Dark spots.

[01:08:21]Those continents.

[01:08:23]>> And there are the oceans and the trees.

[01:08:27]>> You can't see them.

[01:08:28]>> In my mind, I can. I'd like to run down a road that's loaded with pine trees.

[01:08:34]>> Would you?

[01:08:36]>> Yes. And feel just once again the excitement of speed.

[01:08:40]But we're already running at 90,000 m an hour >> and we're standing still.

[01:08:46]>> That's nothing but an illusion.

[01:08:50]>> Do you know what day it is?

[01:08:53]>> Don't you know that in space we don't count the days?

[01:08:56]>> No. But do you know what date it is?

[01:08:59]>> It's the 359th of rotation around the sun.

[01:09:03]>> That's just part of it.

[01:09:06]It's Christmas, Lucy.

[01:09:27]We started to land at the interplanetary base on Venus, the largest, best equipped base closest to Alpha 2.

[01:09:35]From there, Alpha 2 could be intercepted and we hoped destroyed by the remote controlled atomic missiles.

[01:09:56]>> Hey, Archie, is that the base?

[01:09:58]>> Yes, right under the protective dome.

[01:10:00]There's too much hydrogen in Venus's atmosphere.

[01:10:05]From here, it looks like the glass dome of a temple.

[01:10:07]>> You don't need a respirator inside.

[01:10:09]>> What about those plugs? Are they purifying filters?

[01:10:11]>> Hey, that elevated course is showing results, isn't it?

[01:10:14]>> Tell me, why is it that when he wants to protect himself, he hides himself under a dome?

[01:10:19]>> Put on your helmet, kid.

[01:10:22]I'm going to take you on a quick tour of Venus. Only this time, it won't be for sightseeing.

[01:10:31]Emergency action was taken immediately by firing an atomic missile at Alpha 2 in an attempt to destroy this deadly mechanical monster. 8,500 8,000 mi 7,500 7,000 mi 6,500 6,000 mi 5,800 5,500 5,200 5,000 mi disintegrated >> exactly at 5,000 mi We'll have a chance to hit her only if the electronic brain which propels her has gone out of control. You see the two photonic generators which are moving gyroscopically at each end of the spaceship are creating around Alpha 2 an invisible sphere of heat which radiates up to 5,000 miles.

[01:11:36]We've just had the proof of it. It's indestructible.

[01:11:40]So, one of man's dreams has finally come true. An indestructible destroyer.

[01:11:48]Unless we have a sudden change in the next solar system revolution, Alpha 2 will start orbiting around the Earth at only 3500 miles from it.

[01:11:59]>> That means 1,500 miles within the safety limit.

[01:12:04]In a few days, maybe a few hours, our planet will become a mass of boiling mud as it was soon after its formation.

[01:12:14]>> We mustn't give up hope. Something might stop it in time.

[01:12:18]>> Maybe a miracle.

[01:12:22]>> And while we're waiting here for your miracle, I would suggest that we immediately put into operation all the means at our disposal.

[01:12:30]>> They've already prepared to fire missiles from the other hemisphere.

[01:12:33]Meanwhile, why don't you order your men to reach the audio stations on the beach?

[01:12:41]>> You stand by electronic telescope number 7.

[01:12:46]>> 6,800.

[01:12:51]5,700 5,200 5,000 4,500 4,000 3,700 2,900 2,400 2,200.

[01:13:09]>> I don't understand. With your permission, sir, I have an explanation.

[01:13:13]>> What is it?

[01:13:14]>> I think I found the answer.

[01:13:16]>> Tell it to us. I'm sure that due to some technical error, that spaceship is vulnerable.

[01:13:23]The two photonic deflectors at both two semispheres separated in their fields by a channel.

[01:13:29]You mean like a hald orange? A perfect example, my son. That's why a missile has gone through. According to you, it was the only one fired exactly into the center of the channel.

[01:13:40]>> But why did the last one disintegrate 2200 miles?

[01:13:42]>> Because of some imperceptible deviation.

[01:13:44]Perhaps it was attracted by one of the platonic fields.

[01:13:48]>> She's right, Al. There's still a chance.

[01:13:52]What chance?

[01:13:54]>> We'd have to fire on a straight line from another spaceship traveling alongside Alpha 2 at the same rate of speed.

[01:14:01]>> I think I've earned the right to try, sir.

[01:14:03]>> By the right.

[01:14:04]>> Because if my hunch turns out to be correct, I'd like to be the one to receive the credit.

[01:14:10]>> And if it's wrong, you want to be the one to risk it. There's an old atomic spaceship here, sir. I'll use its remote controlled missiles.

[01:14:20]May I go ahead, sir?

[01:14:25]Yes.

[01:14:27]And I hope you'll manage to save humanity.

[01:14:35]We'll take off and follow you as close as possible, Al. All of us.

[01:14:41]As if we were right there with you.

[01:14:44]All of us.

[01:14:50]Hey Ray, now you have a chance to do a real exclusive.

[01:14:54]It'll be a Universal scope.

[01:14:58]Let's just make it a world scoop.

[01:15:24]Engine's off.

[01:15:42]We're out of it now.

[01:15:48]>> You did very well, Peterson. It's not everybody that can stand 16 gamas.

[01:15:53]>> Considering the fact that I'm a parasite.

[01:15:55]>> Tango Zier 13. Tango Zier 13 to Bravo Zulu 88. Over.

[01:16:11]Al piloting the old atomic spaceship Tango Sierra 13 flew alongside us. Both spaceships shut off their engines and the inertial thrust allowed them to fly at fantastic speeds. His mission to find the channel between the two semispheres of Alpha 2.

[01:16:44]Dango killer 13. Go ahead.

[01:16:47]>> Everything okay, Captain?

[01:16:49]>> Perfect.

[01:16:50]>> How's the reporter?

[01:16:55]>> Doing fine.

[01:16:58]>> Requesting route check. Present inertial speed 30,000 mi. Coordinate 13 in respect to Vega. Estimated intersection point with alpha 2 on coordinate 41 in respect to Earth at 18°. Over.

[01:17:14]>> Correct. But change approximately 3° at intersection point with alpha 2.

[01:17:21]>> We'll go. I'll request another route check on approach and let's hope for the best. Radio out.

[01:17:34]Satellite Zulu Extra 34. Satellite Zulu Extra 34 calling Bravo Zulu 88. Over.

[01:17:42]>> Bravo Zulu 88 to satellite. Zulu extra 34. Go ahead, >> Captain. This is Sullivan.

[01:17:48]>> What's the trouble, Sullivan?

[01:17:49]>> About 45 seconds ago, the photonic field around spaceship Alpha 2 came into collision with the asteroids. Well, then >> Alpha 2 has changed her course by 6° in respect to Vega. I'm afraid she'll enter orbit around the Earth before the estimated time.

[01:18:09]>> Can you ascertain her present position?

[01:18:12]>> Yes, I can. High coordinate 27° movement of ellipses gradually advancing.

[01:18:19]>> Look out. It's coming towards you.

[01:18:28]Yes, sir. It will be on top of us any minute.

[01:18:32]>> What about the men, Sullivan?

[01:18:34]>> They are all on standby, sir.

[01:18:38]Two mechanics went out of the space taxi to solar mirror Fox12.

[01:18:43]I ordered them not to come back.

[01:18:46]Commander, see if you can save them.

[01:18:50]>> Sullivan, save yourself.

[01:18:53]It's too late, sir.

[01:18:56]>> Sullivan.

[01:18:58]Sullivan, can you hear me?

[01:19:03]Sullivan.

[01:19:05]Sullivan.

[01:19:24]Pray.

[01:19:26]Oh, >> don't forget Sullivan in your scoop.

[01:19:30]Write this. He was never afraid.

[01:19:34]Since man, even in space, changes his position, but not his character. He is what he is wherever he lives.

[01:19:44]>> What's he mean?

[01:19:49]What you're always saying to himself, every man is a whole world.

[01:20:03]Commander, I've been able to locate the position of the space taxi.

[01:20:08]>> Tell it to me.

[01:20:10]>> Coordinate Pi 288° in respect to Alderaram. We're changing course and we'll try to rescue the survivors.

[01:20:24]>> Bravo Zulu 88 to space taxi Bravo 91.

[01:20:28]We're coming in to rescue you. Be ready to bail out.

[01:20:35]Bravo Zulu 88 to Space Taxi Bravo 91.

[01:20:40]We're coming in to rescue you. Be ready to bail out. Out.

[01:21:00]>> The commander says you boys should rest.

[01:21:02]>> No. Ra. Show them in here.

[01:21:16]I just wanted to see you boys.

[01:21:21]Barry Jackson, I'm glad to see you.

[01:21:28]Go and get some rest now.

[01:21:33]Heat.

[01:21:39]Heat.

[01:22:06]How do you like that, Jackson? He called us boys.

[01:22:10]>> Yeah, and he even remembered our names.

[01:22:13]I didn't think he even knew.

[01:22:17]Sir, I am now 7,000 mi from Alpha 2.

[01:22:33]In a few seconds, I'll start firing the rockets.

[01:22:45]5,000 mi.

[01:22:47]4,500 4,000 3,500 3,000 It's disintegrated.

[01:23:05]>> I'll try again.

[01:23:13]5,000 4500 4,000 3500 3,000 2500 2,000 1,500 1,000 900 800 Go 700 600 500 400 300 200 >> Fire another rocket.

[01:23:41]I'm getting near it, sir.

[01:23:51]>> It's too dangerous. Al, stop. You'll be attracted by the Pallonic fields.

[01:23:56]>> I have located the channel. I'll try to break through it, commander. I'm sure that I can get at least 1,500 m away from the spaceship.

[01:24:03]>> Come back, Alvin. It's murder.

[01:24:05]>> I'm 2,000 mi away from Alpha 2 now, sir.

[01:24:08]Let me try.

[01:24:10]>> How? That's an order.

[01:24:11]>> I'm sorry, sir, but I'm not taking orders anymore.

[01:24:16]>> It's a useless sacrifice.

[01:24:18]>> Son, I'm 1,200 m away from it.

[01:24:23]I don't want to disillusion you, but what would be the use of living if the Earth were destroyed?

[01:24:30]We'd all be prisoners of space with no hope of return.

[01:24:37]800 m.

[01:24:39]>> Al, please.

[01:24:40]>> After 200 miles, you'll have only a very slight chance to keep on a steady course.

[01:24:44]>> That slight chance challenges me to try.

[01:25:16]Now, you don't know what you're doing.

[01:25:17]>> Maybe not, Commander.

[01:25:19]>> How?

[01:25:19]>> But in a few seconds, I'll know for sure.

[01:25:38]Al has succeeded in proving the existence of a channel by the sacrifice of his own life. But we still haven't got a chance.

[01:25:49]>> There's nothing for us to do but follow his lead.

[01:25:52]>> But how? Lucid.

[01:25:55]>> Commander, why don't you request more spaceships equipped with missiles?

[01:25:58]>> It's too late now. They'd never get here in time.

[01:26:03]Well, then I don't know.

[01:26:09]>> What's that object that keeps appearing on the screen?

[01:26:18]It's the space taxi from the disintegrated satellite.

[01:26:24]It is now circling in orbit around us.

[01:26:36]The space taxi.

[01:26:44]I rode on it once for the hell.

[01:26:52]Oh, >> are you afraid, Lucy?

[01:27:03]>> Yes. For him.

[01:27:07]>> I understand.

[01:27:09]>> I love him, George.

[01:27:12]>> I know.

[01:27:14]>> But love has no meaning anymore, George.

[01:27:18]Does it?

[01:27:20]Perhaps it's the only thing that does matter.

[01:27:30]The world of human feelings has been much less explored and the whole of the universe put together.

[01:27:42]But now it's late.

[01:27:45]What have we been doing all these thousands of years?

[01:27:50]We've been congratulating ourselves on our progress in going faster and faster and faster when in reality we've only been getting further away from ourselves.

[01:28:15]Lucy, take my place, will you?

[01:28:45]Where do you think you're going?

[01:28:47]>> Out in the space taxi.

[01:28:49]>> That's madness.

[01:28:51]>> Maybe so, but it's not half as mad as the idea that brought us to this point.

[01:28:54]>> You are staying here. Listen, Lucy loves you, and Lucy has been and is everything in the world that matters to me.

[01:29:04]You may not understand it, but for that very reason, I will stop you from going to certain death.

[01:29:10]>> Why stop me? We are all going to get killed anyway. I'm going to stop you even if I have to use force.

[01:29:53]Commander, he's going to make it. He's picked up the platonic field alongside the channel.

[01:30:23]To find my way through the channel, I had to throw to the right and left any loose objects in the space taxi in order to judge the distance between the two curtains of disintegration.

[01:30:35]>> Look, it's insane.

[01:30:43]The channel is getting narrow every second.

[01:30:49]>> What's he drawing out?

[01:30:50]>> Plugs. Transistors. The spare parts from the mechanic's toolkit.

[01:30:58]>> George, I'm going to make it. I'll get through.

[01:31:01]>> Go on, Ray. Go on.

[01:31:05]You're nearly there.

[01:31:18]I don't have anything else to throw out.

[01:31:20]Get rid of everything which isn't essential. Quick.

[01:31:36]The path is clear. George, I'm going throw.

[01:32:03]Don't lose time. The hatch is above you, right in the middle of the sphere.

[01:32:30]Ray, can you hear me?

[01:32:35]Ray, answer me.

[01:32:37]>> Go ahead, George. I'm listening.

[01:32:40]>> Get into the pilot seat. And disconnect the electronic brain. It should be on the left hand panel.

[01:32:48]Turn off everything else.

[01:32:59]The pilot's still inside the hibernation cell. Dead.

[01:33:03]>> Disconnect all contacts on the left hand panel.

[01:33:15]>> George, they're already disconnected.

[01:33:18]>> The electronic brain. Ray, you must disconnect the electronic brain.

[01:33:32]I'm standing in front of it. What should I do?

[01:33:36]>> Destroy it. Disconnect the cables.

[01:33:54]I can't. They won't come loose.

[01:34:00]>> He can cut them. There are emergency tools right under the footrest of the pilot's seat.

[01:34:04]>> Did you hear Ray? Under the footrest.

[01:34:07]>> All right.

[01:34:09]Quick.

[01:34:11]>> You'd better hurry, sir. We're entering the Earth's gravity zone.

[01:34:15]Our speed is increasing.

[01:34:18]Use a pair of wire cutters, >> George. Now cut the wires.

[01:34:33]I'm cutting to the last wire.

[01:34:44]The raised deflector has stopped.

[01:34:49]Maybe we've made it.

[01:34:52]>> How can you prove that the platonic field has been disintegrated?

[01:34:56]>> There's only one way of telling for certain.

[01:35:01]We're coming in.

[01:35:14]7,000 6,500 6,000 5,500 5,000 We're getting through it.

[01:35:27]>> Ray, we're coming. The nightmare is over.

[01:35:36]>> Hurry up, Ray. We're coming. Get ready to be rescued.

[01:35:49]>> We're alongside you. Ray Bon George, Lucy, the external hatch is jammed. It won't open.

[01:36:06]It will never open again. Never.

[01:36:09]>> Try again, Ray. Try quick.

[01:36:14]>> He can't open it. He cut the cables.

[01:36:18]There's no more power inside the ship.

[01:36:24]>> Earth base 9. Earth base 9. Earth base 9 to Bravo Zulu 88. Can you hear us? Over.

[01:36:32]Bravo Zulu 88 to Earth Base 9. Go ahead.

[01:36:37]>> Are you all going insane up there? If you keep racing that fast, you'll disintegrate when you reach the Earth's atmosphere. Separate and change your course immediately.

[01:36:46]>> Alpha 2 is out of control. There's a man inside.

[01:36:53]We're going down to try to rescue him.

[01:36:57]Space suits on.

[01:37:05]Lucid, take my place.

[01:37:15]We'll manage.

[01:37:27]Ray, Ray, >> Lucy, >> George and the others are coming to get you out.

[01:37:33]>> I can't hold out any longer.

[01:37:36]I can't control the oxygen flow.

[01:37:38]>> Use the regulator. Ray, >> I don't have it anymore. It was the last thing I threw out into space.

[01:37:46]>> Ray, you must hold out.

[01:37:50]Bravo Zulu 88. Bravo Zulu 88, are you listening?

[01:37:56]>> Roger. Go ahead.

[01:37:58]>> This is an order from the high command.

[01:38:00]Stop rescue of Alpha 2 pilot. Change your course immediately or you'll soon enter the atmosphere.

[01:38:07]Repeat, this is an order from the high command. They don't know what they're talking about.

[01:38:14]They don't know what would have happened if Ray establish contact again. And we'll stay as close as possible.

[01:38:24]>> Ray, we're very close now. But then now going out.

[01:38:30]>> Too much air. An archy of air. My thoughts are running wild. Talk to me, Lucy.

[01:38:52]Everything is spinning.

[01:38:57]Where are you, Lucy?

[01:39:01]Here beside you.

[01:39:06]>> Quick. We call wayport here.

[01:39:13]>> What's the use of trying to save the world, Lucy?

[01:39:18]And if I'm going to be lost myself.

[01:39:21]>> No, you can't say this, Ray. You believed more than any of us.

[01:39:28]You truly believed, Ray.

[01:39:36]>> Ray, Ray, after me. I believed. But there's no faith that can destroy the fear of death.

[01:39:49]>> Wait, hang on.

[01:39:57]>> Goodbye, Lucy.

[01:40:10]Lucy, we're inside.

[01:40:14]Be ready to turn the ship.

[01:40:28]Unlock the gyros. I'll tell you when to stop the engine. Gyros unlocked.

[01:40:34]We're in, Lucy. Be ready.

[01:40:39]Gun tank.

[01:41:05]We made it, Lucy. Engines at maximum speed.

[01:41:36]Now you're really worthy of your son, George.

[01:41:46]That's the earth.

[01:41:56]Heat.

[01:42:10]Heat.

[01:42:15]Yeah.

[01:42:31]Heat.

[01:43:05]And that's a wrap on another classic complete with Film relaxed. Hope to see you on the next premiere. Thanks for watching.
