00:02:47 Mr. Lasky, I'm Richard Titan's executive assistant.
00:02:50 I know you. You going with me?
00:02:52 No, Mr. Titan just wanted to see you off.
00:02:56 Is that him in the car?
00:02:57 Yes.
00:02:59 Well, we've never met. Can I introduce myself?
00:03:02 It isn't necessary, Mr. Lasky. As I said, he came to see you off.
00:03:07 Well, thank him for me.
00:03:11 [engine noise]
00:03:35 [music]
00:04:02 Mr. Lasky.

00:07:08 Now, follow me to the bridge.
00:07:11 Stand clear, spot three, helo seven three three, rotating.
00:07:17 Give me 25 knots of wind over the deck.
00:07:19 Aye, Captain.
00:07:20 Holla, head full.
00:07:21 Head full, aye.
00:07:22 Indicate one zero zero RPM.
00:07:23 Indicate one zero zero RPM, aye, sir.
00:07:26 Central bridge, holla, head full, one zero zero RPM.
00:07:29 Can you fix wing recovery?
00:07:31 Aye, Captain.
00:07:32 Let's bring the keg aboard.
00:07:34 Fix two zero zero in the signalers, Charlie.
00:07:37 Set five two, Tomcat.

00:07:50 Tomcat two zero zero.
00:07:53 I'm on approach and lining up.
00:07:56 Gear coming down.
00:07:58 [engine noise]
00:08:05 Two zero zero, lightly right.
00:08:08 [engine noise]
00:08:11 Gear down and locked.
00:08:13 Add power.
00:08:14 Power.
00:08:15 All indicators green.
00:08:18 Hold there.
00:08:20 Hold it.
00:08:22 Lightly left.
00:08:24 In the groove.
00:08:26 Looks good.
00:08:28 [engine noise]
00:08:33 [engine noise]
00:08:43 [engine noise]
00:08:53 [engine noise]
00:09:03 [engine noise]
00:09:14 Air support, Cat One, get below.
00:09:16 We still have aircraft to land.
00:09:19 I hear you're on assignment from Tideman Industries
00:09:21 to the Defense Department.
00:09:22 Is that right?
00:09:23 Yeah, that's right.
00:09:24 What is your job, Mr. Lasky?
00:09:25 I'm a systems analyst.
00:09:27 Efficiency expert, right?
00:09:29 Yeah, you could say that.
00:09:31 [engine noise]
00:09:39 That's a quick change in the weather.
00:09:41 Yeah, sure is.
00:09:43 [engine noise]
00:09:51 [engine noise]
00:09:56 [engine noise]
00:10:01 [engine noise]
00:10:06 [engine noise]
00:10:11 [engine noise]
00:10:16 Our departure was delayed two days
00:10:19 at the request of your mysterious force.
00:10:21 Well, I'm sorry about that, Captain,
00:10:23 but I'm afraid Mr. Richard Tideman is as much a mystery to me
00:10:25 as he is to the rest of the world.
00:10:27 Two days?
00:10:29 Perhaps the fact that Tideman helped design and build this ship
00:10:31 affords him some special privileges.
00:10:34 Sir, Corporal Coleman will escort you while you aboard ship.
00:10:37 Right this way, sir.
00:10:38 Oh, Mr. Lasky.
00:10:39 Sir.
00:10:40 I'd be delighted if you'd join me for dinner.
00:10:43 Thank you, Captain.
00:10:44 I'd like to.
00:10:45 [engine noise]
00:11:07 If I'm mistaken, it was Brack Cloud's forecast this morning
00:11:10 for clear skies and sunshine.
00:11:12 I'll bet he wishes it wasn't, sir.
00:11:14 Hand me that weather report, please.
00:11:17 Thank you.
00:11:18 [engine noise]
00:11:34 Sir?
00:11:35 Hm?
00:11:36 What do you think it is?
00:11:39 It wasn't there on the morning run.
00:11:43 Check all projection lenses, and if it's not there,
00:11:45 check all receivers.
00:11:46 Aye, aye, sir.
00:11:47 [engine noise]
00:11:54 [speaking russian]
00:12:08 [speaking russian]
00:12:10 Who's that?
00:12:11 A Russian trawler.
00:12:13 What's he want?
00:12:14 He ain't big fish.
00:12:16 [laughter]
00:12:18 Been assigned navigator's import cabin, sir.
00:12:20 Connects with Commander Owen, our air wing commander.
00:12:24 Your luggage has been delivered, sir.
00:12:27 I'll be just outside, sir, if there's anything you need.
00:12:30 Thank you.
00:12:32 [engine noise]
00:12:50 [radio chatter]
00:13:09 Hello?
00:13:10 [radio chatter]
00:13:34 [radio chatter]
00:13:48 Captain, we're having communication problems
00:13:50 with the incoming flights.
00:13:52 What do you mean?
00:13:53 It's interference in the storm, sir.
00:13:56 Get Black Cloud up here.
00:13:57 Yes, sir.
00:14:02 Sunshine and clear skies.
00:14:12 Anything else you'd like to see?
00:14:13 I beg your pardon.
00:14:15 What the hell are you doing in my cabin?
00:14:17 I'm terribly sorry.
00:14:19 You're Commander Owen, I'm Warren Lasky.
00:14:21 They put me next door.
00:14:22 Oh, yes, yes, yes.
00:14:24 Mr. Lasky, the one thing we cherish aboard a ship
00:14:26 is privacy.
00:14:27 Maybe it's because we get so damn little of it.
00:14:29 I understand, and I hope you'll forgive me.
00:14:32 Uh, you know, from what I've read,
00:14:35 your manuscript is very good.
00:14:36 I mean, really very good.
00:14:38 Thank you.
00:14:39 You a historian, Mr. Lasky?
00:14:41 Well, I'm a little bit of everything, I guess.
00:14:43 I work for Tyvin Industries.
00:14:44 What exactly is your job aboard this ship?
00:14:47 Very simply, I look at the way you people do things,
00:14:49 and, uh, you know, if I can think of any alternatives,
00:14:52 I write it up and submit a report
00:14:53 to the Department of Defense.
00:14:56 Think you'll find some?
00:14:59 Well, there are always alternatives, Commander.
00:15:03 Mr. Lasky, please don't look for them in here.
00:15:08 Excuse me.
00:15:10 [door opens]
00:15:12 [ship engine]
00:15:15 [ship engine]
00:15:23 [ship engine]
00:15:26 Boss, Keg's here.
00:15:28 Hi, Deg.
00:15:29 George, any further word from Stanton?
00:15:31 We know he's inbound, but we can't talk to him.
00:15:33 His radios are garbled.
00:15:34 I just wish he had more experience.
00:15:37 Yes, Captain.
00:15:39 Yes, sir, he's right here.
00:15:40 Keg.
00:15:42 Yes, Skipper.
00:15:43 How many planes have you got in the air?
00:15:45 Just one, sir.
00:15:46 Our newest pilot, Stanton.
00:15:48 Well, get him aboard as fast as you can.
00:15:49 I want to get out of this weather.
00:15:51 Right away, Skipper.
00:15:52 He's down now.
00:15:53 Keep trying.
00:15:54 Air ops primary.
00:15:55 Try again on 412.
00:15:56 See if you can reach him.
00:15:57 Sir.
00:16:06 Black cloud.
00:16:07 You've been doing unauthorized rain dances again, huh?
00:16:10 Take a look at the scope, sir.
00:16:14 The water temperature is down 5 degrees.
00:16:17 And even the barometer is giving improper readings.
00:16:19 It should be down, and it's way up.
00:16:22 What the hell is that?
00:16:26 It seems to have a cycle, sir.
00:16:28 One run, it's there.
00:16:29 The next one is clear.
00:16:31 One run, it's there.
00:16:33 The next one is clear.
00:16:34 I've never seen anything like it.
00:16:36 Turn those destroyers around and head them back to Pearl Harbor.
00:16:39 No need for them to go through this.
00:16:41 Yes, sir.
00:16:42 Keep it in the wind until we get that Corsair aboard.
00:16:45 It's one of our new pilots.
00:16:46 All units in Romeo Alpha, this is Kilo Bravo.
00:16:49 Unit 10-0, this is 412.
00:17:04 I have an unsafe hook indicator.
00:17:06 Over.
00:17:07 412, roger.
00:17:08 Unsafe hook.
00:17:09 Recycle your hook.
00:17:10 Negative.
00:17:11 That's all, sir.
00:17:12 412, you're transmission poor.
00:17:14 Say your fuel state.
00:17:15 Captain, boss, that Corsair's in real trouble.
00:17:17 Can't get his tail hooked down.
00:17:18 I think we better take him in the barricade.
00:17:20 Rig it.
00:17:21 Air ops, try flight.
00:17:22 On the flight deck.
00:17:23 We have an 86 Corsair in trouble.
00:17:26 Can't get his hook down.
00:17:27 This is not a drill.
00:17:29 You've got to do it quick and tight.
00:17:32 This is not a drill.
00:17:34 Now, rig the barricade.
00:17:36 Follow deck.
00:17:37 Follow deck.
00:17:38 This is no drill.
00:17:40 Come on, let's go.
00:17:43 Come on, let's hustle them.
00:17:46 All personnel off the deck now.
00:18:02 Barricade coming out.
00:18:05 Clear the area.
00:18:06 Clear the flight deck.
00:18:08 Clear the flight deck.
00:18:11 Deck, do you see him out there yet?
00:18:19 Yeah, there he is.
00:18:20 Here he comes.
00:18:21 Heads up.
00:18:22 Green deck.
00:18:23 Land aircraft.
00:18:25 My gosh.
00:18:28 [explosion]
00:18:31 [explosion]

00:19:42 [screaming]
00:19:45 Have Central come up on the JA.
00:20:09 Yes, sir.
00:20:10 Steady as she goes.
00:20:11 Steady as she goes, aye.
00:20:12 Central, pick up the JA.
00:20:14 Aye, sir.
00:20:18 Where's that plane?
00:20:20 I don't see it, Captain.
00:20:24 Sound General Quarters.
00:20:31 Aye, Captain.
00:20:32 Bolson.
00:20:33 Bolson, made aye, sir.
00:20:34 Sound General Quarters.
00:20:35 Aye, sir.
00:20:36 [whistling]
00:20:40 [whistling]
00:20:43 General Quarters.
00:20:46 General Quarters.
00:20:47 All hands, man your battle stations.
00:20:49 Form it forward on your starboard side,
00:20:51 down and aft on your port side.
00:20:53 General Quarters.
00:20:54 General Quarters.
00:20:55 Aye, sir.
00:21:06 Time plus three minutes.
00:21:09 What the hell's going on?
00:21:21 General Quarters, sir.
00:21:22 Come with me.
00:21:23 Time plus three minutes.
00:21:26 [music playing]
00:21:29 Time plus four.
00:21:35 Now set material--
00:21:36 --when all stations are manned and ready.
00:21:38 Yes, sir.
00:21:39 Got him right there.
00:21:40 Coming in, A7 Corsair.
00:21:42 Heads up on deck.
00:21:46 He's inbound to the barricade.
00:21:48 Bring deck to the barricade.
00:21:50 [music playing]
00:21:53 We can't hear you.
00:22:02 We'll get you there.
00:22:06 [music playing]
00:22:09 All right.
00:22:14 [music playing]
00:22:18 [explosion]
00:22:21 Crash on deck.
00:22:27 Crash on deck.
00:22:28 All personnel, respond now.
00:22:29 Let's get out there and watch for fire.
00:22:31 [siren]
00:22:34 [inaudible]
00:22:36 [siren]
00:22:39 Go back to course 350.
00:22:45 Aye, yes, sir.
00:22:46 [siren]
00:22:49 [music playing]
00:22:52 OK, take her down.
00:23:05 All personnel on the flight deck, let's turn to--
00:23:08 [explosion]
00:23:14 Blue charge, lock up the stage on the aircraft.
00:23:17 [music playing]
00:23:20 Is this the last known position of our destroyers
00:23:28 before the storm?
00:23:29 Yes, sir, Captain.
00:23:30 Skipper.
00:23:31 Well, Dan, go down and check out the threat board.
00:23:35 Keep me posted.
00:23:36 Right.
00:23:37 Get Kag up here.
00:23:41 Yes, sir.
00:23:42 I want to talk to sink pack fleet.
00:23:44 Captain, we're down across the board.
00:23:45 Antennas check out, but we're off the air.
00:23:47 Any word from our destroyers?
00:23:48 We aren't getting anything except some cold transmissions
00:23:51 in the 200 meter band.
00:23:52 Otherwise, we're dead as a doornail.
00:23:55 Ops, what's our radar picture?
00:23:56 Radar shows us clear, sir.
00:23:58 Clear?
00:23:59 Can't you see that Russian trawler?
00:24:01 I have the signal officer on deck,
00:24:03 but no visual sightings, sir.
00:24:04 Keep me advised.
00:24:05 Navigator, what's our posit?
00:24:07 270, Captain.
00:24:08 280 miles west of Pearl Harbor.
00:24:10 Oh, Dick.
00:24:11 Launch a Hawkeye to check ship's communications.
00:24:14 A Crusader to make a photo run over Pearl.
00:24:17 And put two Tomcats on ready alert.
00:24:19 Aye, aye, sir.
00:24:20 Captain?
00:24:21 Captain?
00:24:22 Hey, what happened?
00:24:24 Frankly, I don't know.
00:24:27 Lieutenant, have the heads of all departments
00:24:30 meet me at CVIC immediately after the launch.
00:24:32 Aye, aye, sir.
00:24:33 Stalansky, I want you to stay with me.
00:24:36 Captain's off the bridge?
00:24:38 That's a code.
00:24:40 Can you break it, Chief?
00:24:42 I think someone's putting us on.
00:24:45 Why?
00:24:46 Because I learned this code at Great Lakes.
00:24:49 It's ancient.
00:24:51 Thanks, Chief.
00:24:53 Stand clear, 012 Hawkeye rotating.
00:24:56 And get practice started.
00:24:59 [engine running]
00:25:02 On the louds, stand clear.
00:25:22 736 lifting for flight guard.
00:25:25 [engine running]
00:25:28 [crowd shouting]
00:25:51 Hold it! Hold it! Hold it!
00:25:53 Go hold what you want.
00:25:54 Who said that?
00:25:55 For Christ's sake, Chief.
00:25:56 All we want to know is what's going on.
00:25:58 Whatever it is, you'll be told.
00:25:59 When?
00:26:00 As soon as the skipper's ready.
00:26:02 [crowd shouting]
00:26:05 Hey, XO, what's going on?
00:26:09 Attention on deck.
00:26:11 Carry on.
00:26:12 Gentlemen?
00:26:19 We're at general quarters because I don't have any idea what's happened.
00:26:23 But I don't exclude the possibility of war.
00:26:27 Nuclear strike?
00:26:29 Possibility.
00:26:31 Now, what action's been taken?
00:26:34 Well, skipper, there's nothing on the threat board.
00:26:37 And there's been no significant damage to the ship, and the crew's in good shape.
00:26:40 Air wing is intact. First team's ready to go.
00:26:43 E-2 is now showing the area clear.
00:26:45 And reconnaissance aircraft should be coming up on Pearl any moment, sir.
00:26:48 George?
00:26:49 The reactor is stable.
00:26:50 All readings are normal.
00:26:52 Capable for maximum speed, Captain.
00:26:55 Lloyd?
00:26:56 We can transmit and receive, but we haven't been able to reach anybody.
00:26:59 Why's that?
00:27:00 Tried everybody in the book-- sink pack, joint chiefs.
00:27:03 I even took a crack at the White House.
00:27:05 Now, we do have some low-band transmissions, strictly manual stuff, with very low power.
00:27:09 We'll have to do some retuning to transmit in that range.
00:27:11 Get on with it.
00:27:13 Ops?
00:27:14 All radars up. All weapon systems check out.
00:27:16 We're ready, sir.
00:27:18 Mr. Lasky?
00:27:21 You have anything to add?
00:27:22 No, sir. Not at this time.
00:27:24 Skipper?
00:27:25 I have a reconnaissance report coming in now, sir.
00:27:27 Flight level 250.
00:27:32 Camera rolling.
00:27:34 There doesn't appear to be any damage.
00:27:36 Seems to be some unusual shipping traffic.
00:27:40 I'll make another pass for a close-up, sir.
00:27:42 Over.
00:27:43 ETA to Nimbus, 12 minutes, sir.
00:27:45 Skipper, we're picking up some weird traffic on the AM broadcast band on the entertainment circuit.
00:27:50 But the signal strength is very weak.
00:27:52 Boss, it's no use. I tried and tried, and I can't get Carmichael to go to sleep.
00:27:56 Rochester, that polar bear's got to go to sleep.
00:27:58 He's supposed to have been in hibernation over ten days ago.
00:28:00 Jack Benny?
00:28:02 Where is he now?
00:28:03 Sitting up in bed reading "Esquire."
00:28:05 "Esquire"? Well, take it away from him.
00:28:10 Oh, come now, boss. He's been around.
00:28:12 Lloyd, tape and monitor all transmissions.
00:28:17 Ops, I want a closer look on all air, surface, and subsurface contacts within 250 miles of this ship.
00:28:22 Vic, put some tankers and a medium-sized strike force on a 30-minute alert.
00:28:26 Aye, aye, sir.
00:28:27 Any questions?
00:28:28 Skipper, the ship is still at general quarters.
00:28:30 Request permission to go to condition three.
00:28:32 Granted.
00:28:34 I'll be on the bridge. I want answers.
00:28:36 [indistinct chatter]
00:28:46 Secure from general quarters.
00:28:48 Second condition three.
00:28:51 [indistinct chatter]
00:28:54 [indistinct chatter]
00:28:56 [indistinct chatter]
00:28:58 I stand relieved.
00:29:24 Very well.
00:29:26 Bridge?
00:29:27 Captain's on the bridge.
00:29:29 Captain, CIC reports a surface contact bearing 350 degrees at 130 miles.
00:29:35 I want an ID on the surface contact.
00:29:39 Yes, sir.
00:29:40 Launch the ready alert.
00:29:41 Aye, sir.
00:29:42 [rumbling]
00:29:44 [indistinct chatter]
00:30:04 [indistinct chatter]
00:30:06 [rumbling]
00:30:12 [indistinct chatter]
00:30:19 [indistinct chatter]
00:30:21 What the hell's the matter with him?
00:30:44 He's asking us to trust our enemies and he knows better.
00:30:47 You're absolutely right.
00:30:49 Hey, Laura, you finished that very quickly.
00:31:01 Well, I hope so. Let's see, where were we?
00:31:04 Uh...
00:31:05 And there, whoops. And there, forest... Ah, here we are.
00:31:10 So if he does choose to support my program,
00:31:12 let Senator Chapman be assured now
00:31:15 that I am fully aware of those qualities in him
00:31:18 which recommend him as cabinet material.
00:31:21 I think that says it exactly. You agree, Arthur?
00:31:24 Miss Scott, you should have been a diplomat.
00:31:26 I rather thought I was.
00:31:28 Well, you certainly cooked up a compromise
00:31:30 that's gonna make your boss the next vice president of the United States.
00:31:34 I better type this up before you two start trying to improve on it.
00:31:37 Thanks, Laura.
00:31:38 [indistinct chatter]
00:31:43 Arthur, will you leave the girl enough clothes on not to catch cold?
00:31:46 She's too valuable to me right now.
00:31:48 Have you slept with her yet?
00:31:50 What kind of a question is that to ask a married man?
00:31:53 You son of a gun.
00:31:55 I think I better go check what she's doing.
00:31:57 Oh, sure.
00:31:58 Arthur, have another drink.
00:32:00 Stop thinking about how much everybody else is getting.
00:32:02 Thanks.
00:32:03 See you later.
00:32:05 We swung her, Laurel. How about that?
00:32:11 We really swung it.
00:32:13 Did you tell him you were sleeping with me?
00:32:15 What?
00:32:16 Laurel, I wish I was, but I'm not gonna lie about it.
00:32:21 People assume you are anyway.
00:32:23 I guess I'll just have to live with the fact.
00:32:25 The fact?
00:32:26 Of what they think.
00:32:28 You're a strange girl, Laurel.
00:32:31 You give more back talk and less cooperation
00:32:34 than any girl on Capitol Hill.
00:32:36 I don't know why I put up with you and your dog.
00:32:38 I don't know why I just don't fire you.
00:32:40 Because I'm the best political assistant you'll find,
00:32:42 and you're still more interested in politics than sex.
00:32:45 Charlie.
00:32:47 What is he barking at?
00:32:50 Charlie, what is it?
00:32:54 Shh. Listen.
00:33:00 (car horn honking)
00:33:02 Hey, I'm US market.
00:33:24 You sure of that?
00:33:25 I thought so, too.
00:33:27 They're sweet.
00:33:28 Are they ours?
00:33:29 I don't know.
00:33:30 But if they are ours, I've kept them a close secret.
00:33:33 I want inquiries made as soon as we return.
00:33:37 Yes, sir.
00:33:38 Bridge.
00:33:49 Skipper, the F-14s are on top of the contact.
00:33:55 Alert one, this is Eagle One. What have you got?
00:33:57 We've overflown the craft, sir.
00:33:59 The civilian yacht flying US flag,
00:34:03 about 50 feet in length, old but in mint condition. Over.
00:34:07 Hold observation position.
00:34:09 Dispatching A-6 tanker for refueling.
00:34:12 Stand clear.
00:34:23 Stand clear.
00:34:24 Pass one.
00:34:25 A-6 tanker departing.
00:34:27 Challenger's backwards.
00:34:35 One, two, three, pass to the mouth.
00:34:37 Lewis is short with a right to the head.
00:34:39 Kahn hooks the left to the body, brings it up to the head.
00:34:42 Hey, who's that fighting?
00:34:43 Lewis, take another left and a right to the head.
00:34:46 Lewis is staggered by a right to the jaw.
00:34:49 He almost goes down.
00:34:50 There's the bell, ending round 12.
00:34:53 Look sharp, feel sharp, be sharp and listen,
00:34:57 Mr. How are you fixed for a blade?
00:34:59 Can you have plenty?
00:35:01 How are you fixed for a blade?
00:35:03 That better knock.
00:35:04 Let's get some air.
00:35:05 Cabins off the bridge.
00:35:09 Dan, what's this all about?
00:35:18 Where do you make it?
00:35:20 Nostalgia broadcasting on the armed forces band.
00:35:23 Broadcasting after a strike?
00:35:25 Excuse me.
00:35:28 Captain.
00:35:30 Yes?
00:35:31 Sir, is it possible that this could be part of some secret naval maneuver?
00:35:35 Of course not.
00:35:36 There are a few people who like to watch us work under pressure.
00:35:39 What do you think, Dan?
00:35:42 The Department of Defense sent him out here.
00:35:44 Maybe they wanted to give him something to watch.
00:35:46 That makes more sense than anything else so far.
00:35:49 Wait a minute, gentlemen.
00:35:51 You may be the victims of some kind of joke with the Pentagon behind it,
00:35:55 or the Kremlin, or some little green men from Mars.
00:35:57 I promise you, I'm as much in the dark about it as you are.
00:36:00 Captain, we're getting something you might want to hear.
00:36:03 In the plot room.
00:36:04 Aye, sir.
00:36:05 [aircraft engine]
00:36:08 [radio broadcast]
00:36:17 What the hell is going on here?
00:36:31 Sir, I think you ought to see these aerial reconnaissance photographs of Pearl Harbor.
00:36:35 Turn that off.
00:36:36 Yes, sir.
00:36:37 That'll be all.
00:36:38 You.
00:36:39 It's not Pearl Harbor.
00:36:50 Sure as hell is.
00:36:52 Look at that old battle wagon.
00:36:55 It's a memorial now.
00:36:57 It's the Arizona.
00:37:01 But she's completely intact.
00:37:04 That's right.
00:37:05 Get Mr. Lasky back up here.
00:37:08 Yes, sir.
00:37:09 What's the matter with you?
00:37:15 I was just on the bridge.
00:37:17 I was scared.
00:37:19 Real scared.
00:37:20 What happened?
00:37:21 It's crazy.
00:37:23 The Russians, us, even the Germans.
00:37:27 We've finally done it.
00:37:29 We've finally done it.
00:37:30 Done what, for Christ's sake?
00:37:32 War.
00:37:33 We're at war.
00:37:35 You're always talking shit.
00:37:37 Mr. Lasky.
00:37:41 I want a straight answer.
00:37:45 I don't give a damn about any orders you've had elsewhere.
00:37:48 Is there something you've held back?
00:37:50 Nothing. Absolutely nothing, Captain.
00:37:57 All right. I accept that.
00:37:59 Here's a photo taken by a reconnaissance pilot less than an hour ago.
00:38:03 May I suggest something, Captain?
00:38:09 I'm wide open.
00:38:11 I suggest that you ask Commander Owens to come up here right away
00:38:15 and bring the photos he's using to illustrate his book.
00:38:17 Why?
00:38:19 I think he'll have something very interesting to show you, sir.
00:38:21 All right.
00:38:25 [Engine rumbling]
00:38:27 Taker, this is Alert One.
00:38:32 You got two thirsty Tomcats. What do you got?
00:38:35 I've got the hard stuff.
00:38:37 Pull right in.
00:38:38 Mmm. Contact.
00:38:50 We've got a green light.
00:38:53 Go on. Check the oil and clean the windshield. Over.
00:38:55 Dick, where'd you get these?
00:39:03 I got them from the Smiths' ownings, sir.
00:39:05 They're old agency photos of Pearl.
00:39:07 Just like these?
00:39:10 Not like these.
00:39:11 That was taken less than an hour ago.
00:39:13 I don't understand, sir. These are pre-World War II pictures.
00:39:18 It's the fleet that was destroyed.
00:39:21 Sir, CIC reports two bogeys at low altitude.
00:39:23 Distance, 125 miles.
00:39:25 Have our fighters take an ID pass.
00:39:27 I get it.
00:39:29 Have our fighters investigate and identify the contact.
00:39:35 Zero-nine-zero. Signal busted.
00:39:37 Aye, sir.
00:39:39 Alert One, this is Eagle Control.
00:39:40 Vector two-one-zero for the bogeys.
00:39:42 Bogeys low and slow. Your signal is busted.
00:39:45 I say again, your signal is busted.
00:39:47 Roger, Eagle Control.
00:39:50 Alert Two now completing fueling.
00:39:51 Vectoring two-one-zero. Out.
00:39:53 That's the Arizona, Tennessee, West Virginia.
00:40:03 You're saying that these are both photographs of Pearl Harbor
00:40:08 on December the 6th, 1941?
00:40:10 Yes, sir.
00:40:19 Our reconnaissance plane has just taken pictures of something that hasn't existed
00:40:22 for over 40 years.
00:40:24 Sir, we've got ID on the bogeys.
00:40:28 Captain's on the bridge.
00:40:32 What button?
00:40:34 Eleven, sir.
00:40:35 Alert One, this is Eagle One.
00:40:39 What have you got?
00:40:41 Two Japanese Zeros, sir.
00:40:43 Two what?
00:40:46 Two Mitsubishi A6Ms in original condition,
00:40:49 complete with all markings.
00:40:51 I mean, they look brand new, sir.
00:40:53 Have you been spotted?
00:40:55 Negative. We're right in the sun at six o'clock high.
00:40:57 Stay in visual contact. Take no action without clearance.
00:41:00 Will go, Eagle One. Out.
00:41:02 Jack, Vinnie and Rochester.
00:41:07 A newscast.
00:41:09 Somebody, for some reason,
00:41:11 wants us to believe that we're back in 1941.
00:41:15 The Russians.
00:41:16 Maybe.
00:41:18 Parapsychology.
00:41:20 Excuse me, Captain, but we also have to consider
00:41:22 one alternative possibility.
00:41:24 What's that?
00:41:26 The possibility that what's happening here is real.
00:41:28 That's ridiculous.
00:41:30 Maybe. But we have some pretty strong evidence, sir.
00:41:32 Let's not just write off one possible explanation for it
00:41:35 because we don't happen to like it.
00:41:37 Now, how would that be possible, Mr. Lasky?
00:41:39 Could you explain that to me?
00:41:41 No, sir, I can't.
00:41:44 It is possible. Einstein proved it.
00:41:45 In theory.
00:41:47 In theory.
00:41:49 So all we have to do is move through some storm at sea
00:41:51 and bingo, we're all much more clever than Einstein.
00:41:53 What sort of storm was that, Commander?
00:41:55 Certainly nothing like I've ever seen.
00:41:57 Nothing like any of us have ever seen.
00:41:59 There are forces in the universe
00:42:01 which we're only now just beginning to understand.
00:42:03 I mean understand through science, not superstition.
00:42:05 There are black holes in space,
00:42:07 anti-matter, curved space.
00:42:09 Things that are as strange to us as electricity
00:42:11 would have been to people in the Middle Ages.
00:42:13 Or this ship in World War II.
00:42:14 The crew's anxious for an explanation too.
00:42:22 I've got to get a clear picture of all this.
00:42:27 Let's go to CIC.
00:42:32 (dramatic music)
00:42:33 Hey.
00:42:47 What is it?
00:42:49 Listen.
00:42:51 What is it?
00:42:52 It's the radio.
00:43:00 It's those planes again.
00:43:01 No, no, no.
00:43:03 Different noise entirely.
00:43:05 There they are.
00:43:08 (dramatic music)
00:43:14 (plane engine roaring)
00:43:15 They're not ours, are they?
00:43:31 No, certainly not.
00:43:33 They're Japanese monkeys.
00:43:35 (dramatic music)
00:43:38 (plane engine roaring)
00:43:39 They're coming in again.
00:43:49 Laurel, ask the captain of Radio Hawaii.
00:43:55 Find out about Japanese fighter planes in the area.
00:43:59 Yes, Senator.
00:44:01 (dramatic music)
00:44:04 (plane engine roaring)
00:44:05 (guns firing)
00:44:13 Oh, God, they're shooting!
00:44:15 (guns firing)
00:44:17 (tires screeching)
00:44:21 Oh, my God.
00:44:24 Oh, no.
00:44:29 Did the captain send the message?
00:44:32 You've got to get off this boat.
00:44:33 Come on, Laurel.
00:44:36 (plane engine roaring)
00:44:40 Eagle Control, this is Alert One.
00:44:41 They just straight the hell out of that yacht.
00:44:43 Why would they attack a yacht?
00:44:45 Their job would be to destroy anything with a radio
00:44:49 that could warn Pearl Harbor.
00:44:51 Providing you and Mr. Einstein are correct.
00:44:53 Dick, where would the Japanese fleet be at this time
00:44:57 on December the 6th, 1936?
00:44:59 No, sir, they'd be off the scope.
00:45:00 But an educated guess would be around about here.
00:45:02 Excuse me, they'd have to be here
00:45:05 up around the northwest sector.
00:45:07 Well, let's get this settled once and for all.
00:45:09 Have the E2 check it out.
00:45:11 I want to see if the Japanese task force is out there.
00:45:13 Yes, sir.
00:45:15 Eagle Control, Alert One.
00:45:17 They're making another run.
00:45:19 Jesus, they'll shoot that damn yacht to pieces.
00:45:21 Request permission to arm and fire.
00:45:23 For God's sake, skip it.
00:45:25 Negative.
00:45:28 Charlie, Charlie, Charlie.
00:45:29 Now, now, come on.
00:45:31 Those planes are coming in.
00:45:33 Come on, let's go.
00:45:35 Come on, Harvey.
00:45:37 Eagle Control, they blew into base.
00:45:54 They must have hit the fuel tank.
00:45:57 Any survivors?
00:45:58 Stand by.
00:46:00 Affirmative.
00:46:02 One, two, three Maywests.
00:46:04 Hey, wait a minute.
00:46:06 Those bastards are turning back.
00:46:08 They're going to straighten them into water.
00:46:10 Request permission to fire.
00:46:12 This is Eagle One.
00:46:14 You are cleared to arm, but do not fire.
00:46:16 Draw the law.
00:46:18 Pray with them, but don't fire.
00:46:20 Affirmative.
00:46:22 Sam!
00:46:24 I'm all right.
00:46:26 I'm all right.
00:46:27 Look out.
00:46:29 Oh, no, they're coming again.
00:46:31 Harvey, get that light together, or I'll die.
00:46:38 I'm dead.
00:46:40 Where?
00:46:42 Here they come.
00:46:44 Harvey!
00:46:50 Harvey!
00:46:54 He's dead.
00:46:55 It's okay.
00:47:03 Easy, boy.
00:47:05 Up you go.
00:47:08 Hey, Fox, that woke them up.
00:47:09 I think we should give them another shot.

00:49:22 220. Sweet Jesus.
00:49:25 Skipper, they're headed straight for us,
00:49:27 and we've got an armed strike force just sitting on the deck.
00:49:34 Alert 1, this is Eagle 1. You're cleared to fire.
00:49:37 Splash the zeros. I say again, splash the zeros.
00:49:41 Yes, sir.
00:49:43 This has got to be a dream.

00:50:58 Captain, the E2 is coming up on the point, Charlie.
00:51:02 Eagle Control, we have multiple radar contacts picking up on 4, 5, 6 heavies.
00:51:08 Possible carriers and 24 escort ships.
00:51:13 Southeasterly heading.
00:51:14 Negative radio or radar emissions.
00:51:17 Request instructions. Over.
00:51:19 That is the Japanese attack force.
00:51:21 I guess now we know.
00:51:24 Look, Dick.
00:51:27 Take personal charge of a rescue team.
00:51:29 Keep the survivors isolated.
00:51:31 Crazy situation this could be.
00:51:34 You know what I want to understand.
00:51:36 Dan, keep the fighters airborne to cover the rescue.
00:51:38 Aye, aye, sir.
00:51:41 Go back and report all movements to the Japanese task force.
00:51:43 Aye, aye, sir. You still think it's a dream?
00:51:45 It's a nightmare.

00:56:43 >> Mind the store, Ray.
00:56:53 I'm going forward.
00:56:54 >> Holy cow.
00:57:02 >> A whole Japanese fleet.
00:57:03 >> Have these things returned to the Japanese pilot.
00:57:20 Get this translated.
00:57:21 >> Aye, sir.
00:57:22 >> Captain's on the bridge.
00:57:26 >> Captain's on the bridge.
00:57:27 >> Mr. Lasky.
00:57:38 >> Gentlemen.
00:57:39 >> Captain's off the bridge.
00:57:41 >> We can't ignore it any longer.
00:57:54 Every man on this ship knows that we have radar and visual contact
00:57:57 with a Japanese fleet approaching Pearl Harbor on December the 6th, 1941.
00:58:02 Now, what do we do about it?
00:58:05 >> Skipper, what we do about it is blow them out of the water.
00:58:08 >> The USS Nimitz declares war on the Japanese Empire?
00:58:12 That's what we've been doing.
00:58:14 But they haven't attacked Pearl Harbor yet.
00:58:16 The only evidence we have that they intend to is in the history books.
00:58:21 It opens up some amazing possibilities.
00:58:24 Think of the firepower of the USS Nimitz back in 1941.
00:58:28 >> What kind of possibilities, Mr. Lasky?
00:58:31 >> Possibilities for the future, Mr. Owens.
00:58:33 Think of the history of the next 40 years.
00:58:36 >> I have a suspicion history will be a little more difficult to beat than you imagine, Mr. Lasky.
00:58:43 >> I'm talking about the classic paradox of time.
00:58:46 Imagine, for example, I go back in time to meet my own grandfather.
00:58:50 Long before he got married, before he had children.
00:58:52 We have an argument and I kill him.
00:58:54 Now, if that happens, how am I ever going to be born?
00:58:58 And if I can never be born, how can I go back in history and meet my very own grandfather?
00:59:03 >> I'm not half the theorist you are, Mr. Lasky.
00:59:07 But I still have a gut instinct that things only happen once.
00:59:10 And if they have happened, then there's nothing we can do to change them.
00:59:13 Nor should we try.
00:59:15 >> How are you going to avoid it?
00:59:16 It's already happening and we're already involved.
00:59:19 >> For Christ's sake, what is this?
00:59:21 Some half-assed Princeton debating society.
00:59:23 We are in a war situation.
00:59:25 This is a United States warship.
00:59:28 Or at least it used to be.
00:59:30 Or will be.
00:59:31 Or what the hell ever.
00:59:33 Oh, God damn it, you can drive yourself crazy just trying to think about this stuff.
00:59:37 Jesus, I must be dreaming.
00:59:39 >> Now, hold it, hold it.
00:59:40 Now, let's all calm down.
00:59:42 Let's take it one step at a time and by the book.
00:59:48 The United States of America falls under attack.
00:59:51 Our job as a defender.
00:59:53 Past, present, and future.
00:59:56 >> And after that?
00:59:58 >> After that, we take our orders from the commander in chief of the United States Armed Forces.
01:00:02 >> Franklin Delano Roosevelt?
01:00:06 [Speaking Japanese]
01:00:14 [Speaking Japanese]
01:00:17 [Speaking Japanese]
01:00:18 [Speaking Japanese]
01:00:20 [Speaking Japanese]
01:00:22 [Speaking Japanese]
01:00:24 >> Everything all right here?
01:00:27 You in command of this ship?
01:00:28 >> Hardly.
01:00:29 >> I'm a doctor.
01:00:30 Ship's commander is Captain Yelland.
01:00:31 I'm sure he'll be down to see you as soon as possible.
01:00:33 >> Certainly hope so.
01:00:35 Meanwhile, you both seem none the worse for your little mishap.
01:00:37 >> Mishap?
01:00:39 You call getting a boat shot off from under you and three people dead a mishap?
01:00:43 >> Are we at war?
01:00:44 Is that what happened?
01:00:45 >> I'm really not in a position to tell you.
01:00:47 >> Yes.
01:00:48 >> Charlie! Charlie!
01:00:52 Oh, Charlie, am I glad to see you.
01:00:55 >> Doctor, could you please inform the captain that Senator Samuel Chapman,
01:01:02 co-chairman of the Senate Defense Committee, would like to see him at once.
01:01:05 >> Of course, Senator.
01:01:07 >> Doctor, I believe I said at once.
01:01:11 >> First a vitamin shot.
01:01:13 Now, if you'll both roll up your sleeves.
01:01:15 Senator.
01:01:17 >> No, goddammit.
01:01:18 Now, you can take up your needles, Doctor,
01:01:20 and whatever's in them and get the hell out of here.
01:01:23 Corporal.
01:01:28 What the hell are we? Prisoners?
01:01:40 [Clears throat]
01:01:41 [Knocking]
01:02:08 [Knocking]
01:02:09 [Knocking]
01:02:37 Holy shit.
01:02:39 The smoking lamp is lighted in all operate spaces.
01:02:49 [Door slams]
01:02:50 >> So, history may be tougher to beat than I imagined.
01:03:09 >> You're becoming a real pain in the ass, Lasky.
01:03:11 You take an awful lot of risks with someone who's supposed to be intelligent.
01:03:14 >> Do I?
01:03:16 The attack on Pearl Harbor was far from a surprise for many people,
01:03:20 among them the prominent and ambitious Senator Samuel S. Chapman,
01:03:23 who had only two weeks before publicly argued for an increase in our strength in the Pacific.
01:03:28 Ironically, the Senator disappeared and was presumed dead following the attack he had foreseen so clearly.
01:03:33 Had he lived, it's very possible Chapman could have been Roosevelt's running mate in the 1944 election,
01:03:40 and upon his death, the next President of the United States.
01:03:45 >> Well, now, if that doesn't come under the heading of trying to beat history, I don't know what does.
01:03:49 >> Lasky, I realized who he had the moment I heard his name.
01:03:51 >> Why'd you keep it to yourself?
01:03:52 >> Because I don't have your appetite for playing God with the world.
01:03:55 What was I supposed to do, throw him back in the sea?
01:03:57 >> Well, at least that would have preserved the natural order of history, as you've written it.
01:04:01 >> Go to hell, Lasky.
01:04:03 >> Go to hell yourself. I want to meet Chapman.
01:04:05 >> God damn it!
01:04:10 If this wasn't happening to me, I wouldn't believe it.
01:04:13 Who the hell are these people?
01:04:15 >> The Navy.
01:04:16 >> The Navy, yeah. But what part of it?
01:04:19 I've never seen machines like they got on board this thing, and where have they been developing aircraft like that?
01:04:24 The Navy would have to appear before my committee, and I've never even heard a whisper about...
01:04:30 rocket planes and that thing they pulled us out of the sea with,
01:04:35 and naming this ship after Chester Nimitz, an active duty admiral.
01:04:39 What the hell's going on here?
01:04:42 >> Roosevelt. He owns the military.
01:04:44 >> That's it. That's exactly who.
01:04:49 FDR has wanted the United States in this war since it started,
01:04:52 but he knows there's no way it's going to happen except in response to an attack.
01:04:56 >> You always said the Japanese would attack.
01:04:58 >> That's right. And who's sitting out here with no press,
01:05:01 while the White House takes all the credit for raising the alarm and being ready to hit back?
01:05:06 >> Obviously, we are.
01:05:08 >> God damn it!
01:05:09 Damn it!
01:05:10 Anything?
01:05:26 >> Whoever he is, he's either too scared or too well-briefed to talk about it.
01:05:30 Excuse me.
01:05:38 >> All right, Corporal.
01:05:39 Commander, I demand to know why we're being targeted.
01:05:43 >> Charlie!
01:05:45 >> Wait a minute. I got him.
01:05:46 >> Jesus Christ!
01:05:56 >> No, don't!
01:05:59 >> Oh, my God.
01:06:03 [Silence]
01:06:09 [Footsteps]
01:06:11 [Dog barks]
01:06:19 [Door slams]
01:06:21 [Silence]
01:06:26 >> There's a new suspect. Shot one, maybe two of your men.
01:06:46 >> Move in.
01:06:47 [Silence]
01:06:52 >> Captain, prisoner grabbed a weapon. Shot one of my men, maybe two.
01:06:58 We're in position.
01:07:01 >> The area is sealed off.
01:07:02 >> Stand by.
01:07:03 Get Lieutenant Kajima up here on the double.
01:07:07 >> Can we get a translator out here for God's sake?
01:07:13 >> How do we know where he's staying?
01:07:14 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:07:17 >> We need a translator. Tell him we need a translator.
01:07:19 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:07:22 >> Maybe that's just what he's trying to tell us.
01:07:23 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:07:27 [Speaking Japanese]
01:07:43 >> All right, Dick. Lieutenant Kajima's here. Put it on the box.
01:07:51 [Silence]
01:07:59 >> Ask him what he wants.
01:08:02 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:08:16 >> He wants access to a radio, sir.
01:08:19 >> Does he say why?
01:08:20 >> Because he wants to warn his commander.
01:08:22 >> About us.
01:08:25 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:08:38 >> He repeats the demand.
01:08:40 >> Or else?
01:08:42 >> He will kill again.
01:08:47 >> Do you think there's a chance they might believe him?
01:08:49 >> Well, there's no chance if things remain the way they are.
01:08:53 >> Tell him we agree.
01:09:02 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:09:06 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:09:12 [Silence]
01:09:23 >> Dick!
01:09:25 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:09:39 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:09:40 >> You son of a bitch!
01:09:44 >> Don't shoot! Back off!
01:09:46 >> Don't shoot! Back off! Back off!
01:09:50 >> What the hell's going on down there?
01:09:53 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:10:04 >> He says one more attempt to trick him and the girl is dead.
01:10:08 >> No tricks.
01:10:09 >> He can use the radio room if he frees the girl.
01:10:12 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:10:19 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:10:24 >> He says he doesn't believe you.
01:10:26 >> Why don't you tell him what's going on here, Commander?
01:10:31 >> You're an expert on what's going to happen tomorrow. Why don't you tell him about it, for God's sakes?
01:10:36 >> Go on, tell him. We got nothing to lose.
01:10:38 >> Dick?
01:10:40 >> Yes, sir.
01:10:42 >> Go ahead. Tell him.
01:10:44 >> 26th November, six carriers left the core isles, north of Japan.
01:10:50 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:11:00 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:11:06 >> Tomorrow at dawn, these carriers will send 353 planes to attack Pearl Harbor.
01:11:12 >> How in the hell do you know all that?
01:11:16 >> [Speaking Japanese]
01:11:20 >> Your code is climb Mount Nitaka.
01:11:25 >> [Speaking Japanese]

01:12:07 [♪♪♪]
01:12:11 >> What's going on?
01:12:20 >> Please, Miss Scott, don't ask me any questions. There isn't anything I can tell you at this time.
01:12:29 [♪♪♪]
01:12:33 >> You all right?
01:12:44 >> Where's Carly? Where's my dog?
01:12:50 >> We'll find him, Miss Scott. We can't get out of this shit.
01:12:58 [Radio chatter]
01:13:04 >> I want to get out of this bathrobe and into some clothes. Will somebody please get me some clothes, for God's sake?
01:13:11 >> Chief, get the Senator some clothes.
01:13:14 >> Sir.
01:13:16 >> Senator Matt Yellen, commanding officer.
01:13:18 >> Where and how did you get all this information I've been hearing? And is it true?
01:13:24 >> Yes, sir.
01:13:27 >> And?
01:13:28 >> No, Senator.
01:13:30 >> Why the hell not?
01:13:32 >> The reason is a little complicated, but believe me, Senator, this carrier is capable of handling any attack should it occur.
01:13:41 >> One carrier against a whole fleet? Just what kind of an idiot did you take me for, Captain?
01:13:45 >> Senator, calm down.
01:13:47 >> To hell with you! Tell Pearl Harbor what's happening here, or I'll talk to them.
01:13:51 >> Very well.
01:13:54 >> Go ahead and set up the communications in my import cabin.
01:13:57 >> Wouldn't you like to talk to them with some clothes on?
01:14:02 >> Thank you, Captain.
01:14:06 >> Follow me, sir.
01:14:08 >> You all right?
01:14:16 >> Yes, sir, I'm fine.
01:14:18 >> Can you do that, Captain?
01:14:21 >> Contact Pearl Harbor back in 1941.
01:14:24 >> I think so.
01:14:28 >> Then what do you do?
01:14:30 >> One step at a time.
01:14:32 >> Like a minefield.
01:14:36 [Sounds of radio transmission]
01:14:38 >> This is Senator Samuel S. Chapman of the United States Senate, on board the aircraft carrier Nimitz.
01:14:58 >> Captain Yelland is here with me.
01:15:00 >> You're on what?
01:15:03 >> I repeat, I am Senator Samuel S. Chapman on board the USS Nimitz.
01:15:08 >> All right, whoever the hell you are. Use of military frequencies by unauthorized personnel is a felony.
01:15:15 >> Now, just a minute here, sir.
01:15:17 >> As we have no aircraft carrier Nimitz and no Captain Yelland, I suggest, asshole, that you stop impersonating some other asshole and get off the air. You're wasting our time.
01:15:30 >> How dare you talk to me that way? Captain, tell them who you are. Speak to them.
01:15:34 >> You. What are you doing here? You're a civilian.
01:15:42 >> Yes, sir, I'm with the Department of Defense, I mean the Navy Department, sir.
01:15:46 >> Well, that's more like it. What's going on here?
01:15:48 >> I'm afraid I'm just an observer here, sir. I couldn't tell you anything more than you already know.
01:15:53 >> What's happening here?
01:15:56 >> What's happening here?
01:15:57 >> Who are you people?
01:16:01 >> Sir, when you're ready to cap McCusky, you and Miss Scott join him in his in-port cabin.
01:16:12 >> Thank you.
01:16:14 >> I'll wait outside while you change.
01:16:21 >> Please, I really don't want to be left alone right now. I'll just be a minute.
01:16:28 >> Just exactly what is it you do for the Senator, Miss Scott?
01:16:38 >> I work for him, Commander. I'd like to think I'm more than just a secretary. I write most of his speeches. In general, I'm his assistant.
01:16:49 >> That's quite an accomplishment for a woman in your day, this day and age.
01:16:52 >> Let me tell you something. I'm ambitious and very capable. That's a combination that's not much appreciated. It's a man's world, I'm sure you'll agree.
01:17:02 >> It certainly is, Miss Scott.
01:17:07 >> I spend a lot of time trying to hide the way I look, hoping to be recognized for my ability.
01:17:12 >> How's it going so far?
01:17:15 >> Well, let me put it this way. If the way I look gets me in the door, then God help him when I get through.
01:17:20 >> You're a remarkable woman, Miss Scott.
01:17:23 >> Shall we?
01:17:26 >> Enemy fleet, bearer zero, four-two degrees.
01:17:44 >> Captain, they bear zero, four-two degrees. Range, one-eight-two miles. Course, one-eight-zero. Speed, twelve.
01:17:51 >> Very well. Keep me advised.
01:17:53 >> Laurel, are you all right?
01:18:08 >> Miss Scott, I'm Matt Yellin Skipper of this ship.
01:18:12 >> Thank you for your hospitality, Captain. But I insist that you fly Miss Scott and myself to Pearl Harbor immediately.
01:18:17 >> Very well. Lieutenant.
01:18:24 >> Yes, sir.
01:18:26 >> Follow this officer. He'll see that you're fully equipped and then escort you to the hangar deck.
01:18:31 >> Thank you, Captain. Laurel?
01:18:33 >> Charlie?
01:18:35 >> Forget about the dog. You'll be all right.
01:18:39 >> I think you're making a big mistake here. That man mysteriously disappeared on December the 7th, 1941. That's today, sir.
01:18:46 Now, at the present time, he is the front-running candidate for the vice presidential spot on the Democratic ticket in 1944.
01:18:53 And if he survives, he's almost certain to become the President of the United States when Roosevelt dies in April of 1945.
01:18:59 Now, sir, don't you think he'd be a whole lot safer to stay here on this ship with us for the time being, I mean?
01:19:05 >> Mr. Lasky, my job is to make decisions here, now.
01:19:09 Not worry about what politician may be in the White House four years from now or 40 years ago.
01:19:14 >> But, sir...
01:19:16 >> And right now, I don't like having two civilians on my ship when I'm about to do battle.
01:19:19 >> You've got three civilians.
01:19:21 >> Mr. Lasky, you're free to go with them if you like.
01:19:24 [Silence]
01:19:35 >> Dick.
01:19:37 [Splash]
01:19:39 >> Just got enough time to drop them off on a deserted spot on this island.
01:19:43 >> Not Pearl, sir?
01:19:45 >> Hell no. It'll be a whole lot safer there.
01:19:48 They'll equip and look after themselves till it's over.
01:19:52 >> I'll feel a lot easier with them off my hands.
01:19:54 >> Yes, sir.
01:19:56 >> Dick.
01:19:59 I'm sure you're back by 0700.
01:20:02 I want my best man commanding that strike force.
01:20:05 >> Yes, sir.
01:20:07 [Ship's horn]
01:20:16 >> Now hear this. Now hear this. All hands, stand by for a special announcement from the captain in 15 minutes.
01:20:23 [Music]
01:20:31 >> What are you doing here, Mr. Lasky?
01:20:33 >> I want to go to Pearl Harbor with you.
01:20:36 [Music]
01:20:43 >> Wait.
01:20:45 You're not going to Pearl, are you?
01:20:47 Did they know?
01:20:53 >> No.
01:20:56 [Music]
01:21:20 [Ship's horn]
01:21:29 >> Captain, enemy fleet 170 miles north, northwest of Pearl.
01:21:34 >> The Japanese fleet now bears 055 degrees, 162 miles.

01:22:11 >> This is the captain. I'm speaking to every man aboard this ship.
01:22:16 The past few hours, many things have happened.
01:22:19 The rumors of nuclear attacks and a third world war are totally untrue.
01:22:26 We have no reason to believe that any aggression has been taken against our homes and families.
01:22:34 I believe that what we have stumbled across is not man-made, but a phenomenon of nature.
01:22:41 One that can't be explained.
01:22:44 This phenomenon is a storm which the Nimitz went through less than 18 hours ago.
01:22:51 The storm has had some effect on time as we know it.
01:22:56 It created a portal.
01:22:58 >> A door into another era.
01:23:03 >> Today is December the 7th, 1941.
01:23:07 I'm sure we're all aware of the significance of this state, of this place in history.
01:23:15 We're about to fight a battle that was lost before most of you were born.
01:23:21 This time, with God's help, it's going to be different.
01:23:27 Good luck.
