0:29:48 > 0:29:51And therefore... And therefore... Oh, here we are.
0:29:51 > 0:29:56"If he does support my programme, let Senator Chapman be assured now,
0:29:56 > 0:30:00"that I am fully aware of those qualities in him,

0:30:04 > 0:30:08- You agree?- Miss Scott, you should have been a diplomat. - I thought I was.
0:30:08 > 0:30:14You've cooked up a compromise that'll make your boss the next Vice President of the United States.
0:30:14 > 0:30:19- I better type this up before you try to improve it.- Thanks, Laurel.
0:30:22 > 0:30:26Arthur, will you leave her enough clothes on not to catch cold?
0:30:26 > 0:30:29- She's too valuable to me right now. - You slept with her yet?
0:30:29 > 0:30:34- What kind of a question is that to ask a married man?- You son of a gun!
0:30:34 > 0:30:37- I better go check what she's doing. - Oh, sure.
0:30:37 > 0:30:41Have another drink and stop thinking about how much
0:30:41 > 0:30:44- everybody else is getting. - Thanks.- See you later.
0:30:47 > 0:30:51We swung it, Laurel. How about that? We really swung it.
0:30:51 > 0:30:54- Did you tell him you were sleeping with me?- What?
0:30:54 > 0:30:58Laurel. I wish I was, but I'm not gonna lie about it.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02People assume we are, anyway. I guess I'll have
0:31:02 > 0:31:06- to live with the fact.- Fact? - Of what they think.
0:31:06 > 0:31:09You're a strange girl, Laurel. You give more back talk
0:31:09 > 0:31:13and less co-operation than any girl on Capital Hill.
0:31:13 > 0:31:17I don't know why I put up with you. I don't know why I don't fire you.
0:31:17 > 0:31:22I'm the best assistant you'll find and you're still more interested in politics than sex.

0:32:05 > 0:32:09I don't know. If they are ours, they're a closed secret.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59Excuse me.
0:33:59 > 0:34:04- Captain.- Yes?- Sir, is it possible that this could be part
0:34:04 > 0:34:07- of some secret naval manoeuvre? - Of course not.
0:34:07 > 0:34:10There are a few people who'd like to watch us work under pressure.
0:34:10 > 0:34:14- What are you saying, Dan?- The Department Of Defense sent him here.
0:34:14 > 0:34:19- Maybe they gave him something to watch?- That makes more sense.
0:34:19 > 0:34:23Wait a minute. You may be the victims of some kind of joke,
0:34:23 > 0:34:27but whether the Pentagon's behind it or the Kremlin or men from Mars,

0:34:59 > 0:35:03Sir, I think you ought to see these. Aerial reconnaissance photos
0:35:03 > 0:35:07- of Pearl Harbor.- Turn that off! - Yes, sir.- That'll be all, you.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19- It's not Pearl Harbor. - Sure as hell is.
0:35:19 > 0:35:21Look at that old battle rig.
0:35:21 > 0:35:24It's a memorial now.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27It's the Arizona.
0:35:29 > 0:35:32- But...she's completely intact. - That's right.
0:35:32 > 0:35:36- Get Mr Lasky back up here. - Yes, sir.
0:35:40 > 0:35:44- What's the matter with you? - I was just on the bridge.
0:35:44 > 0:35:47They're scared, real scared.

0:36:05 > 0:36:10Mr Lasky, I want a straight answer.
0:36:10 > 0:36:14I don't give a damn about any orders you've had elsewhere.
0:36:14 > 0:36:18- Is there something you've held back? - Absolutely nothing, Captain.
0:36:21 > 0:36:24All right. I accept that.
0:36:24 > 0:36:28Here's a photo taken by our pilots less than an hour ago.
0:36:31 > 0:36:35- May I suggest something, Captain? - I'm wide open.
0:36:35 > 0:36:37Ask Commander Owens to come up here
0:36:37 > 0:36:41and bring the photos he's using to illustrate his book.
0:36:41 > 0:36:45- Why?- I think he'll have something very interesting to show you, sir.

0:37:27 > 0:37:30They're old photos of Pearl.
0:37:30 > 0:37:32- Just like these. - Not like these.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35That was taken less than an hour ago.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39I don't understand. These are pre-World War II pictures.
0:37:39 > 0:37:42This is the fleet that was destroyed.
0:37:42 > 0:37:46Sir, CIC reports two bogeys at low altitude, distance 125 miles.
0:37:46 > 0:37:49- Have our fighters take an ID pass. - Aye, Captain.
0:37:54 > 0:37:58Have our fighters investigate and identify 0-9-0. Signal Buster.
0:37:58 > 0:38:01Aye, sir. Alert-1, this is Eagle control.
0:38:01 > 0:38:04'Vector 2-1-0 for the bogey. Bogeys going slow.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22That's the Arizona, Tennessee, West Virginia.
0:38:22 > 0:38:27You're saying that these are both photographs of Pearl Harbor
0:38:27 > 0:38:32on December the 6th, 1941, hm?
0:38:34 > 0:38:37Yes, sir.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40Our reconnaissance plane has just taken pictures
0:38:40 > 0:38:45of something that hasn't existed... for over 40 years.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47Sir, we've got ID on the bogeys.
0:38:49 > 0:38:53- Captain's on the bridge. - What button?- 11, sir.
0:38:55 > 0:38:59Alert-1, this is Eagle-1. What have you got?
0:38:59 > 0:39:02- 'Two Japanese Zeros, sir. - Two what?!
0:39:02 > 0:39:06'Two trophy-class, Mitsubishi A6Ms in original condition,
0:39:06 > 0:39:10'complete with all markings. They look brand new, sir.'
0:39:10 > 0:39:14- Have you been spotted?- 'Negative. We're on their six-o'clock high.'
0:39:14 > 0:39:19- Stay in visual contact. Take no action without clearance. - 'Willco, Eagle-1. Out.'
0:39:22 > 0:39:25- Jack Benny and Rochester. - And newscasts from World War II.
0:39:25 > 0:39:27Somebody, for some reason,
0:39:27 > 0:39:31wants us to believe that we're back in 1941. Now, who wants it?
0:39:31 > 0:39:34- The Russians. - Oh, Dan.- Maybe.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37Excuse me, Captain, but we also have to consider
0:39:37 > 0:39:40- one alternative possibility. - What's that?
0:39:40 > 0:39:43The possibility that what's happening is real.
0:39:43 > 0:39:47- That's ridiculous.- Maybe, but we have some pretty strong evidence, sir.
0:39:47 > 0:39:51Let's not write off an explanation for it because we don't like it.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55Now, how would that be possible, Mr Lasky? Could you explain that to me?
0:39:55 > 0:39:59No, sir. I can't, but we know that movement through time
0:39:59 > 0:40:03- is possible. Einstein proved it. - In theory.- In theory.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06All we have to do is go through a storm at sea and bingo!
0:40:06 > 0:40:08We're cleverer than Einstein?
0:40:08 > 0:40:11What sort of storm was that? Nothing like I've ever seen.
0:40:11 > 0:40:13Nothing like ANY of us have ever seen.
0:40:13 > 0:40:18There are forces in the universe that we're only now beginning to understand.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20Understand through science, not superstition.
0:40:20 > 0:40:23There are black holes, antimatter, curved space.
0:40:23 > 0:40:26Things that are as strange to us as electricity
0:40:26 > 0:40:29would've been to people in the Middle Ages, or this ship in World War II.
0:40:34 > 0:40:37Crew's anxious for an explanation too.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42We've gotta get a clearer picture of all this.
0:40:43 > 0:40:46Let's go to CIC.
0:41:01 > 0:41:05- Hey.- What is it? - Listen.- What is it?
0:41:05 > 0:41:08ENGINES HUM
0:41:12 > 0:41:15- It's those planes again. - No, no, no.
0:41:15 > 0:41:18Different noise entirely.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20There they are.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43- They're not ours, are they? - No. Certainly not.
0:41:43 > 0:41:47They have Japanese markings.
0:41:58 > 0:42:00They're coming in again.
0:42:02 > 0:42:06Laurel, ask the captain to radio Hawaii.
0:42:06 > 0:42:10Find out about Japanese fighter planes in the area.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12Yes, Senator.
0:42:23 > 0:42:26- Oh, God! They're shooting! - Argh!
0:42:28 > 0:42:31- DOG BARKS - Oh, God!
0:42:31 > 0:42:34Oh, my God!
0:42:35 > 0:42:39- Oh, no! - The captain send the message?
0:42:41 > 0:42:44We've gotta get off this boat.
0:42:44 > 0:42:46Come on, Laurel.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51'Eagle control, this is Alert-1.
0:42:51 > 0:42:56- 'They just strafed the hell out of that yacht!'- Why attack a yacht?
0:42:56 > 0:43:00Their job's to destroy anything with a radio that can warn Pearl Harbor.
0:43:00 > 0:43:03Providing you and Mr Einstein are correct.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06Dick, where would the Japanese fleet be at this time
0:43:06 > 0:43:09on December the 6th, 1941?
0:43:09 > 0:43:13Well, they'd be off the scope, but a guess would be around about here.
0:43:13 > 0:43:17- Excuse me.- They'd be here, in the north-west sector.
0:43:17 > 0:43:20Let's get this settled. Have the E-2 check it out.
0:43:20 > 0:43:23- I want to see if the Japanese task force is out there.- Yes, sir.
0:43:23 > 0:43:27'Eagle control, Alert-1. They're making another run.
0:43:27 > 0:43:30'They'll shoot that yacht to pieces!

0:43:35 > 0:43:37- Charlie! - No, Laurel, not now! Come on!
0:43:37 > 0:43:40Those planes are coming in. Come on.
0:43:40 > 0:43:43Let's go! Come on, Harvey!
0:43:57 > 0:44:02'Eagle control, they blew it to bits. They hit the fuel tank!'
0:44:02 > 0:44:05- Any survivors? - 'Stand by.
0:44:05 > 0:44:09'Affirmative. One, two, three Mae Wests.
0:44:09 > 0:44:14'They're gonna hit them in the water! Request permission to fire!'
0:44:14 > 0:44:18This is Eagle-1. You are clear to arm, but do not fire.
0:44:18 > 0:44:21'Throw them off, play with them, but don't fire.
0:44:21 > 0:44:23'Affirmative.'
0:44:26 > 0:44:30- Sam!- All right! - Sam!- It's all right. I'm all right.
0:44:32 > 0:44:35- Look out! - Oh, no! They're coming again!
0:44:39 > 0:44:42Harvey, get that lifejacket off and dive!
0:44:42 > 0:44:46- I can't swim! - Here they come!
0:44:51 > 0:44:53Harvey!
0:44:55 > 0:44:57Harvey!
0:45:01 > 0:45:04- Harvey! - He's dead.
0:45:11 > 0:45:14- DOG WHINES - It's OK. Easy, boy.
0:45:14 > 0:45:16Up you go.
0:45:27 > 0:45:31'That woke 'em up.'
0:45:31 > 0:45:33'I think we should give them another shot.'
0:47:11 > 0:47:14'Why the hell are we playing with these guys?'
0:47:16 > 0:47:21- Radar shows enemy planes heading on course 2-2-0.- 2-20.
0:47:21 > 0:47:24Skipper, they're heading straight for us
0:47:24 > 0:47:28and we've got an armed strike force just sitting on the deck.
0:47:29 > 0:47:32Alert-1, this is Eagle-1.
0:47:32 > 0:47:35You're clear to fire. Splash the Zeros.
0:47:35 > 0:47:39- I say again, splash the Zeros. - "Yes, sir."

0:49:10 > 0:49:12"Over."
0:49:12 > 0:49:14- That is the Japanese attack force. - Yeah.
0:49:14 > 0:49:17I guess now we know.
0:49:17 > 0:49:21Look, Dick, take personal charge of a rescue team.
0:49:21 > 0:49:23Keep the survivors isolated.
0:49:23 > 0:49:27- Crazy situation. Look, you know what I want.- I understand.
0:49:27 > 0:49:30- Keep the fighters airborne to cover the rescue.- Aye, sir.
0:49:30 > 0:49:34Track and report all movements of the Japanese task force.
0:49:34 > 0:49:38- Aye, sir.- Still think it's a dream? - It's a nightmare.
0:50:55 > 0:50:57- Let go! - Forget the damn dog!
0:51:37 > 0:51:39- Boss, 3-6. - "Go ahead, 3-6."
0:51:39 > 0:51:42Two survivors. We're waiting to pick up CAG.
0:51:42 > 0:51:46- "CAG?! What the hell is he doing in the water?"- Dammed if I know.
0:51:57 > 0:51:59Charlie!
0:52:05 > 0:52:08You all right, ma'am?
0:52:10 > 0:52:14- How are you feeling, sir?- What the hell kinda machine is this thing?
0:52:14 > 0:52:19- What's your ship?- It's an aircraft carrier. AW Commander Richard Owens.
0:52:19 > 0:52:23- Sam Chapman. - Senator Samuel Chapman?
0:52:23 > 0:52:27That's right. Sure am glad you were out here.
0:52:30 > 0:52:33Yes, sir.
0:52:47 > 0:52:50"On the flight deck. Clear the flight deck."
0:52:50 > 0:52:53"7-3-6 inbound."
0:53:06 > 0:53:09OK, Senator. Watch yourself. Watch your head.
0:53:13 > 0:53:16Hang on to me, sir.
0:53:21 > 0:53:25- It's all right, ma'am. - I'll take the dog for you, sir.
0:53:51 > 0:53:54TANNOY CONTINUES
0:53:56 > 0:53:58Little bastard.
0:54:29 > 0:54:32Mind the store. I'm going forward.
0:54:36 > 0:54:38Holy cow!
0:54:38 > 0:54:41It's the whole Japanese fleet.
0:54:54 > 0:54:58Have these things returned to the Japanese pilot. Get this translated.
0:54:58 > 0:55:00Aye, sir.
0:55:01 > 0:55:04Captain's on the bridge.
0:55:13 > 0:55:15Mr Lasky. Gentlemen.
0:55:15 > 0:55:18Captain's off the bridge.
0:55:28 > 0:55:31We can't ignore it any longer. Every man on this ship
0:55:31 > 0:55:35knows that we have visual contact with the Japanese fleet
0:55:35 > 0:55:38approaching Pearl Harbor on December the 6th, 1941.
0:55:38 > 0:55:43- What do we do about it?- What we do is blow them out of the water.
0:55:43 > 0:55:47The USS Nimitz declares war on the Japanese empire?
0:55:47 > 0:55:51That's what we'd be doing, but they haven't attacked Pearl Harbor yet.
0:55:51 > 0:55:56They only evidence we have that they intend to is in the history books.
0:55:56 > 0:55:58It opens up some amazing possibilities.
0:55:58 > 0:56:02Think of the firepower of the USS Nimitz back in 1941.
0:56:02 > 0:56:05What kind of possibilities, Mr Lasky?
0:56:05 > 0:56:08Possibilities for the future, Mr Owens.
0:56:08 > 0:56:11Think of the history of the next 40 years.
0:56:12 > 0:56:17I have a suspicion history will be more difficult to beat than you imagine.
0:56:17 > 0:56:20I'm talking about the classic paradox of time.
0:56:20 > 0:56:25Imagine I go back and meet my grandfather before he got married and had children.
0:56:25 > 0:56:29We have an argument and I kill him. If that happens,
0:56:29 > 0:56:31how am I ever gonna be born?
0:56:31 > 0:56:35And if I can never be born, how can I go back and meet my grandfather?
0:56:37 > 0:56:40I'm not half the theorist you are, Mr Lasky,
0:56:40 > 0:56:44but I have a gut instinct that things only happen once, and if they have happened,
0:56:44 > 0:56:47then there's nothing we can do to change them, nor should we try.
0:56:47 > 0:56:51How are you gonna avoid it? It's happening, we're involved!
0:56:51 > 0:56:55For Christ's sake, what is this?! Some Princeton debating society?!
0:56:55 > 0:56:58We are in a war situation!
0:56:58 > 0:57:02This is a United States warship, or at least it used to be!
0:57:02 > 0:57:05Or will be, or what-the-hell ever!
0:57:05 > 0:57:09Oh, goddamit! You can drive yourself crazy thinking about this stuff!
0:57:09 > 0:57:12- Jesus, I must be dreaming! - Now, hold it, hold it.
0:57:12 > 0:57:15All right. Let's all calm down.
0:57:15 > 0:57:18Let's take it one step at a time and by the book.
0:57:18 > 0:57:22If the United States of America falls under attack,
0:57:22 > 0:57:25our job is to defend her,
0:57:25 > 0:57:27in the past, present or future.
0:57:27 > 0:57:30- And after that? - After that, we take our orders
0:57:30 > 0:57:34from the Commander-In-Chief of the United States Armed Forces.
0:57:34 > 0:57:37Franklin Delano Roosevelt?

0:57:55 > 0:57:58- Everything all right? - You in command?
0:57:58 > 0:58:01I'm a doctor. Ship's commander is Captain Yelland.
0:58:01 > 0:58:04- I'm sure he'll be down to see you soon.- I hope so.
0:58:04 > 0:58:08- You both seem none the worse for your little mishap.- Mishap?
0:58:08 > 0:58:14- You call getting a boat shot from under you and three people dead a mishap?- Are we at war?
0:58:14 > 0:58:17- KNOCK AT DOOR - I'm not in a position to tell you. ..Yes?
0:58:17 > 0:58:21Charlie! Charlie!
0:58:21 > 0:58:23Oh, Charlie, am I glad to see you.
0:58:23 > 0:58:26- DOG BARKS - Doctor,
0:58:26 > 0:58:30please inform the captain that Senator Samuel Chapman, co-chairman
0:58:30 > 0:58:35- of the defense committee, would like to see him now.- Of course, Senator.
0:58:36 > 0:58:39Doctor, I believe I said now!
0:58:39 > 0:58:43First, a vitamin shot. Now, if you'll both roll up your sleeves.
0:58:43 > 0:58:47- Senator? - You can take your needles, Doctor,
0:58:47 > 0:58:51and whatever's in them and get the hell out of here!
0:58:53 > 0:58:55Corporal.
0:59:04 > 0:59:07What the hell are we? Prisoners?!

1:00:33 > 1:00:35You're a real pain in the ass.
1:00:35 > 1:00:40- You take a lot of risks for someone who's intelligent.- Do I?
1:00:40 > 1:00:43"The attack on Pearl Harbor was far from a surprise for many people,
1:00:43 > 1:00:46"among them, Senator Samuel Chapman,
1:00:46 > 1:00:50"who had argued for an increase in our strength in the Pacific."
1:00:50 > 1:00:53"The senator disappeared following the attack
1:00:53 > 1:00:57"he had foreseen so clearly. Had he lived, it's very possible
1:00:57 > 1:01:02"Chapman could have been Roosevelt's running mate in the 1944 election
1:01:02 > 1:01:06"and, upon his death, the next president of the United States."
1:01:06 > 1:01:09If that's not trying to beat history, I don't know what is.
1:01:09 > 1:01:13- I knew who we had the moment I heard his name.- Why keep it to yourself?
1:01:13 > 1:01:18I haven't your appetite for playing God! Should I have thrown him back?!
1:01:18 > 1:01:21That would've preserved history... as you wrote it.
1:01:21 > 1:01:26- Go to hell, Lasky.- Go to hell yourself. I wanna meet Chapman.
1:01:27 > 1:01:29Goddammit!
1:01:29 > 1:01:33If this wasn't happening to me, I wouldn't believe it.
1:01:33 > 1:01:36- Who the hell are these people?! - The navy.
1:01:36 > 1:01:38The navy, yeah. But what part of it?
1:01:38 > 1:01:42I've never seen machines like they've got on board this thing
1:01:42 > 1:01:45and where have they been developing aircraft like that?
1:01:45 > 1:01:48The navy would have to appear before my committee
1:01:48 > 1:01:51and I've never even heard a whisper about...
1:01:51 > 1:01:55rocket planes and that thing the pulled us out of the sea with.
1:01:55 > 1:01:59And naming this ship after Chester Nimitz, an active-duty admiral!
1:01:59 > 1:02:02What the hell's going on here?!
1:02:02 > 1:02:04Roosevelt. He owns the military.
1:02:06 > 1:02:10That's it. FDR has wanted the United States in this war since it started.
1:02:10 > 1:02:14But he knows it won't happen except in response to an attack!
1:02:14 > 1:02:18- You said the Japanese would attack. - That's right and who's sitting here
1:02:18 > 1:02:23with no press while the White House takes credit for raising the alarm
1:02:23 > 1:02:26- and being ready to hit back? - Obviously, we are.
1:02:26 > 1:02:28Goddammit!
1:02:42 > 1:02:47- Anything?- He's either too scared or too well briefed to talk about it.
1:02:48 > 1:02:50Excuse me.
1:02:55 > 1:02:59- All right, Corporal. - Commander, I demand to know why...
1:02:59 > 1:03:03- DOG BARKS - Charlie!- Whoa, whoa. I got him.
1:03:11 > 1:03:13Jesus Christ!
1:03:13 > 1:03:16- No, don't! - DOG BARKS
1:03:16 > 1:03:19Oh, my God!
1:03:58 > 1:04:02- He shot maybe one or two of your men.- Move it.
1:04:06 > 1:04:09Captain, prisoner grabbed a weapon.
1:04:09 > 1:04:12He shot one of my men, maybe two.

1:04:26 > 1:04:30How the hell do we know what he's saying if we can't understand him?
1:04:30 > 1:04:33We need a translator to tell him we need a translator.

1:10:06 > 1:10:10- Will somebody please get me some clothes, for God's sake!- Chief,
1:10:10 > 1:10:13- get the senator some clothes. - Yes, sir.
1:10:13 > 1:10:15Senator, Matt Yelland, commanding officer.
1:10:15 > 1:10:19Where and how did you get all this information I've been hearing?
1:10:19 > 1:10:22- And is it true? - Yes, sir.
1:10:22 > 1:10:25Did you inform Pearl Harbor command?
1:10:25 > 1:10:28- No, Senator. - Why the hell not?
1:10:30 > 1:10:34The reasons are a little complicated, but believe me, Senator,
1:10:34 > 1:10:38this carrier's capable of handling any attack should it occur.
1:10:38 > 1:10:40One carrier against a whole fleet?
1:10:40 > 1:10:44- What kind of an idiot do you take me for?- Calm down.- To hell with you.
1:10:44 > 1:10:48- Tell Pearl Harbor what's happening here or I'll tell them.- Very well.
1:10:48 > 1:10:52Dan, set up the communications in my in-port cabin.
1:10:54 > 1:10:58Wouldn't you like to talk to them with some clothes on?
1:11:00 > 1:11:03- Thank you, Captain. - Follow me, sir.
1:11:10 > 1:11:13- Are you all right? - Yes, sir. I'm fine.
1:11:13 > 1:11:15- Can you do that, Captain? - Hm?
1:11:15 > 1:11:19Contact Pearl Harbor... back in 1941?
1:11:20 > 1:11:22I think so.
1:11:22 > 1:11:25Then what do you do?
1:11:25 > 1:11:28- One step at a time. - Yeah.
1:11:28 > 1:11:30Like a minefield.
1:11:46 > 1:11:51This is Senator Samuel S Chapman of the United States Senate
1:11:51 > 1:11:54on board the aircraft carrier Nimitz
1:11:54 > 1:11:57- and Captain Yelland is here with me. - 'You're on what?!'
1:11:57 > 1:12:00I repeat, I am Senator Samuel S Chapman
1:12:00 > 1:12:02on board the USS Nimitz.
1:12:02 > 1:12:06'Oh, right. Whoever the hell you are, use of military frequencies
1:12:06 > 1:12:09'by unauthorised personal is a felony.'
1:12:09 > 1:12:15- Now, just a minute here, sir.- 'As we have no aircraft carrier Nimitz and no Captain Yelland,
1:12:15 > 1:12:19'I suggest, asshole, that you stop impersonating some other asshole
1:12:19 > 1:12:22'and get off the air. You're wasting our time!'
1:12:22 > 1:12:28How dare you talk to me that way?! Captain, tell him who you are! Speak to them.
1:12:32 > 1:12:34You. What are you doing here? You're a civilian.
1:12:34 > 1:12:38I'm with the Department of De... I mean, the navy department, sir.
1:12:38 > 1:12:42- That's more like it. What's going on?- I'm just an observer here, sir.
1:12:42 > 1:12:45I can't tell you anything more than you know.
1:12:46 > 1:12:49What's happening here?
1:12:51 > 1:12:53Who are you people?
1:13:00 > 1:13:03The captain requests that you and Miss Scott
1:13:03 > 1:13:06- join him in his in-port cabin. - Thank you.
1:13:09 > 1:13:12- I'll wait outside while you change. - Please,
1:13:12 > 1:13:16I really don't wanna be left alone right now.
1:13:16 > 1:13:18I'll just be a minute.
1:13:24 > 1:13:27Just exactly what is it you do for the senator, Miss Scott?
1:13:27 > 1:13:30I work for him, Commander.
1:13:30 > 1:13:34I'd like to think I'm more than just a secretary.
1:13:34 > 1:13:37I write most of his speeches. In general, I'm his assistant.
1:13:37 > 1:13:42That's quite an accomplishment for a woman in your... This day and age.
1:13:42 > 1:13:46Let me tell you something, I'm ambitious and very capable.
1:13:46 > 1:13:49That's a combination that's not much appreciated.
1:13:49 > 1:13:51It's a man's world, I'm sure you'll agree.
1:13:53 > 1:13:58- It certainly is, Miss Scott.- I spend a lot of time hiding the way I look,
1:13:58 > 1:14:02- hoping to be recognised for my ability.- How's it going so far?
1:14:02 > 1:14:08Let me put it this way, if the way I look gets me in the door, God help them when I get through it.
1:14:08 > 1:14:10You're a remarkable woman, Miss Scott.
1:14:12 > 1:14:14Shall we?
1:14:14 > 1:14:16Yeah.
1:14:28 > 1:14:31"Area clear. Bearing 0-4-2 degrees."
1:14:31 > 1:14:34Captain, they bear 0-4-2 degrees.

1:14:51 > 1:14:54Laurel, are you all right?
1:14:54 > 1:14:59- I'm Matt Yelland, skipper of this ship...- Thank you for the hospitality
1:14:59 > 1:15:03but I insist that you fly Miss Scott and myself to Pearl immediately.
1:15:07 > 1:15:09- Very well. Lieutenant. - Yes, sir.
1:15:09 > 1:15:13Follow this officer, he'll see that you're fully equipped
1:15:13 > 1:15:18- and then escort you to the hangar deck.- Thank you, Captain. Laurel.
1:15:19 > 1:15:22- Charlie?- Forget about the dog. He'll be all right.
1:15:22 > 1:15:26Wait a minute, Captain. I think you're making a big mistake here.
1:15:26 > 1:15:30That man mysteriously disappeared on December the 7th, 1941.
1:15:30 > 1:15:34That's today. Now, at the present time, he is the front runner
1:15:34 > 1:15:37for the vice-presidential spot on the Democratic ticket in 1944
1:15:37 > 1:15:40and if he survives, he's certain
1:15:40 > 1:15:43to become president when Roosevelt dies in April, 1945.
1:15:43 > 1:15:48Don't you think he'd be safer to stay on this ship with us, for the time being?
1:15:48 > 1:15:52My job is to make decisions here, now,
1:15:52 > 1:15:56not worry about what politician may be in the White House in four years,
1:15:56 > 1:16:02- or 40 years ago!- But, sir...- And I don't like having two civilians on my ship when I'm about to do battle!
1:16:02 > 1:16:07- You've got three civilians.- You're free to go with them if you like.
1:16:17 > 1:16:20Dick...
1:16:21 > 1:16:25Just got enough time to drop them off on a deserted spot on this island.
1:16:25 > 1:16:29- Not Pearl, sir?- Hell, no! It'd be a whole lot safer there.
1:16:29 > 1:16:33We'll equip them to look after themselves till it's over.
1:16:33 > 1:16:36I'll feel a lot easier with them off my hands.
1:16:36 > 1:16:39Yes, sir.
1:16:40 > 1:16:43Dick, be sure you're back by 0700.
1:16:43 > 1:16:47I want my best man commanding that strike force.

1:18:55 > 1:18:58'but rumours of nuclear attacks
1:18:58 > 1:19:01'and a third world war are totally untrue.
1:19:01 > 1:19:05'We have no reason to believe that any aggression has been taken
1:19:05 > 1:19:09'against our homes and families.
1:19:09 > 1:19:13'I believe that what we have stumbled across is not man-made,
1:19:13 > 1:19:17'but a phenomenon of nature.
1:19:17 > 1:19:20'One that can't be explained.
1:19:20 > 1:19:24'This phenomenon is a storm which the Nimitz went through
