00:00:301942, the South Pacific.
00:00:36The New Year finds USS Enterprise and her crew of 2,000 men preparing to deliver greetings
00:00:42to the Japanese in the form of torpedo bombers and fighter planes.
00:00:48With last month's attack on Pearl Harbor still fresh in the minds of these American aviators,
00:00:54they've decided that revenge is a dish best served piping hot.

00:02:14Chief, this is Aldrich. I'm losing her on the A-ray.
00:02:23Come on, where are you going?
00:02:31Chief, I've lost the beacon. Over.
00:02:35Don't be close, Chief.
00:02:37I'll give him a tap. Maybe his comm is down.
00:02:42Chief? Can you hear us? Over.
00:02:46Loud and clear, boys.
00:02:49She's waiting for this wind to tell me which direction she wants to blow.
00:02:59Let's do a take-another drift shot. That's not how I'm reading those wavetops.
00:03:02Yes, Chief.
00:03:05It's 15 degrees. Same read as the outbound, Chief.
00:03:15That's correct. She's off to the east.
00:03:19I had her west.
00:03:21I'm taking her east.
00:03:24I'm taking her east.
00:03:44Blue Base, this is 6K14. Requesting an inbound bearing. Over.
00:03:48Chief, we've broken radio silence.
00:03:50Affirmative. We need a bearing.
00:03:54Confirm you're on 79?
00:03:5679 is confirmed. I reckon we're still too far out.
00:03:59Keep trying.
00:04:04Blue Base, this is 6K14. Do you read?
00:04:06Come in, Blue Base. Over.
00:04:14Chief. Go.
00:04:16I'm the EMF.
00:04:17I heard Jep talk.
00:04:18Hold the plug.
00:04:20Roger that. Let's go silent on Morse.
00:04:22Silent on Morse. Affirmative.
00:04:27Are we on fuel, Chief?
00:04:30Low.
00:04:32Pustula, we need to make altitude. Drop the ordnance.
00:04:35Aye, aye, Chief. Bombs away.
00:04:39Hold it.
00:04:49Aldridge, hit that EMF.
00:04:51With the Japs, Chief.
00:04:53Do it.
00:04:56Blue Base, this is 6K14. Do you read?
00:04:586K14 to Blue Base. Come in, Blue Base. Over.
00:05:02I guess she's east.
00:05:08Enterprise, this is 6K14. Do you read?
00:05:10Get on it, Aldridge.
00:05:12I'm on it.
00:05:14We're out of range.
00:05:38Hold it.
00:05:54Morse, I got to put her down before we run out of fuel.
00:05:58Smoke up your vests and stand by for a water landing. Understood?
00:06:03Affirmative, Chief.
00:06:05Pustula?
00:06:07Yes, Chief?
00:06:08Aldridge, gather the flares and smoke candles in the first aid kit.
00:06:12We're going to need the flashlights.
00:06:14Pustula, grab the rations in the water and ready the life raft.
00:06:17Keep your head, boys.
00:06:22Pass this back.
00:06:24Got it.
00:06:25Coming through.
00:06:29Grab the parachute.
00:06:31Parachute?
00:06:32Prepare to ditch.
00:06:37Parachute!
00:06:44Break for impact!
00:07:07Pustula?
00:07:08Here, Chief.
00:07:09Aldridge?
00:07:10Here.
00:07:11Step lively, boys.
00:07:37Chief!
00:07:48Chief!
00:07:57No, no!
00:08:08No.
00:08:21Come here.
00:08:28Carapace warning in place!
00:08:38Ah!
00:08:40Resolve this jam!
00:08:42Train that beam!
00:08:49Unship your weapons.
00:08:51They're dragging us down.
00:08:57I can't get it.
00:09:01There goes mine.
00:09:03Mine, too.
00:09:05That makes a difference.
00:09:13Now this damn thing.
00:09:19No!
00:09:22It's too heavy to lift.
00:09:24Wait, wait, wait.
00:09:26Aldridge!
00:09:36If we get trapped under there again, just deflate the vest a little bit.
00:09:40Swim down and out.
00:09:42Understood?
00:09:43I can't swim much.
00:09:45You can.
00:09:46You?
00:09:47Not really, Chief.
00:09:49No!
00:09:53I'm trying!
00:09:55Ah!
00:10:04Okay.
00:10:06This is gonna be hard to turn over in these swells.
00:10:13We take off our vests, string them together,
00:10:16tie one on here and throw the other across.
00:10:18Then we go around and pull.
00:10:20Good idea.
00:10:21Except now the one ear can swim.
00:10:22Just have to hold tight to the handrail.
00:10:24Real tight.
00:10:26Okay, let's give it a go.
00:10:28Yeah.
00:10:33Here.
00:10:40All right.
00:10:41Okay.
00:10:42Go around and I'll toss it over.
00:10:51Okay.
00:10:52Ready?
00:10:53Yeah.
00:10:54Here it comes!
00:10:57You got it?
00:10:58All right, we got it.
00:11:03All right, got a grip.
00:11:05Now heave like you mean it.
00:11:07One, two, three!
00:11:15Come on!
00:11:19Now!
00:11:24Hold it down.
00:11:25I'll go around the other side and climb in.
00:11:38Come on.
00:11:48Dippers in a can got more space.
00:11:52Let's try laying on the floor.
00:12:15Aldrich, I think you already strapped in when I was on deck.
00:12:18Didn't get a good look at you.
00:12:21Gene Aldrich.
00:12:23You'll get a gander in the morning, Chief.
00:12:25I'm sure I'll be here.
00:12:27Pastura.
00:12:28Is that Italian?
00:12:29Polish, Chief.
00:12:30Polish?
00:12:31I've made a couple of hops with you before.
00:12:33Oh, yeah?
00:12:35I don't remember.
00:12:39We'll be picked up come morning.
00:12:41You reckon, Chief?
00:12:42That's what I'm hoping.
00:12:44Hoping?
00:12:45We got procedures for this.
00:12:47Come early morning, they'll be on us like an old hound dog.
00:12:59So damn hot inside that plane.
00:13:03It's freezing out here.
00:13:18Cock-a-doodle-doo, boys.
00:13:26Well, we made it.
00:13:28I was worried she wouldn't keep us afloat,
00:13:30but she's still ship-shaped.
00:13:32Thank God.
00:13:33We made it.
00:13:34We made it.
00:13:35We made it.
00:13:36We made it.
00:13:37We made it.
00:13:38We made it.
00:13:39We made it.
00:13:40We made it.
00:13:41We made it.
00:13:42We made it.
00:13:43We made it.
00:13:44We made it.
00:13:45We made it.
00:13:46Thank God.
00:13:50Gene Aldrich.
00:13:51Now I know you.
00:13:52I couldn't put a face to the name.
00:13:54In all my glory, Chief.
00:13:56All right.
00:13:57Who's up for a fresh cup of coffee?
00:13:59Henry!
00:14:00I'm gonna put it on the pot.
00:14:03Yeah.
00:14:08Thanks, Henry.
00:14:09Henry?
00:14:10Why Henry?
00:14:11Oh, it's that show, you know, off the radio?
00:14:14Huh.
00:14:16Henry!
00:14:17Henry Aldrich!
00:14:21No.
00:14:22No, never heard of it.
00:14:29Chief, when you said you were gonna land in the drink,
00:14:31I thought, boy, this is it.
00:14:33Thought I couldn't land her, huh?
00:14:35Wasn't that some flying?
00:14:37I mean, he just laid her right down.
00:14:40Yeah, he sure did.
00:14:42Huh.
00:14:46You know, Aldrich, I've been wondering.
00:14:49I don't understand how you couldn't raise that carrier.
00:14:52We couldn't have been more than 20 miles out at one point.
00:14:55Even at 40, we should have caught something, right?
00:14:59You tell me, Chief, how far out were we?
00:15:03We should keep our eyes peeled, right?
00:15:09That's right.
00:15:11Everybody take a point.
00:15:12We need to cover 360.
00:15:23Good visibility.
00:15:25Yeah, they'll check every square mile out here.
00:15:28It'll take a while, but they'll do it, won't they?
00:15:31Right.
00:15:32Even if it takes all day or into tomorrow.
00:15:35Yep.
00:15:36Could take most of a day.
00:15:39They'll do a box out to 50.
00:15:41Oh, even 100.
00:15:42They got the viz.
00:15:43By that, by the number of planes.
00:15:45Heck, it's likely to be this morning.
00:15:48Maybe we'll get a real breakfast, huh, Chief?
00:15:52You figure we'll see him first, or hear him?
00:15:56Shh.
00:16:09Come on.
00:16:10Let's go.
00:16:11Come on.
00:16:12Come on.
00:16:13Come on.
00:16:16Come on.
00:16:17Come on.
00:16:18Come on.
00:16:19Come on.
00:16:20You see that speck?
00:16:24That's a bird.
00:16:28He ain't moving his wings.
00:16:32Wait.
00:16:36That's something, all right.
00:16:40Steady on her course, whatever.
00:16:44It's one of ours.
00:16:48Hey! Hey! Get down!
00:16:52There's plenty of time to drown.
00:16:56I think it's an S.P.D. She's on a bearing.
00:17:00About 140 knots, half a mile out. Hey!
00:17:04Pastula, grab the parachute. Spread it on the water.
00:17:08Chief, no parachutes. Aldrin, how about those flares?
00:17:12I couldn't hold them, chief. Well, wave something!
00:17:16Hey! Hey! Hey! Look down here!
00:17:20What are you blind? Something's behind you.
00:17:24Check your 3 o'clock. Down here!
00:17:28Hey! Hey!
00:17:32Hey! Over here! Down here!
00:17:36Hey! Hey! Hey!
00:17:40Hey! Hey! Look here!
00:17:44Come on. Where are you going?
00:17:48No, no, no. Hey!
00:17:52Hey! Over here!
00:17:56Hey!
00:18:00Hey!
00:18:04Come on. Hey! Hey!
00:18:08Hey!
00:18:12Hey! Over here!
00:18:38That was our one and only chance.
00:18:42What? That was our search.
00:18:46What do you mean? He can't just leave us here.
00:18:50Could be he saw us. He's going back for help.
00:18:54Why didn't he break course? Because he's on a box search.
00:18:58Next pass, he'll be out of sight.
00:19:02Maybe there'll be more planes double-checking. Or ships.
00:19:06Boot camp. We are at war, Aldrich.
00:19:10We're in the vicinity of enemy naval forces.
00:19:14We get one quick look, at best.
00:19:18Like you said, there's a procedure.
00:19:26Right.
00:19:30No parachute or flares. Don't suppose the chartboard made it either?
00:19:34Affirmative. First aid kit? Everything's gone, chief.
00:19:40Including the rations and water.
00:19:44Oh, God. I don't get it.
00:19:48I gave the orders in plenty of time, so I could get busy with the landing, and we have no food and no water.
00:19:52Aren't you pretty busy not drowning?
00:19:56How are we gonna survive out here with no water?
00:20:04Okay.
00:20:16Okay. Coming aft.
00:20:20Listen up, lads.
00:20:24This raft is a vessel of the United States Navy, and I am her captain.
00:20:28As such, I will be giving the orders, and you will be taking them. Are we clear?
00:20:32Yes, chief. Aldrich?
00:20:36Crystal, chief.
00:20:40Let's take an inventory. Pockets. Everything. Pile it on the shirt.
00:20:44Tattoo magazine.
00:20:48My pocket knife.
00:20:52Keep that in your pocket. Last thing we need is a hole in this raft.
00:20:56Pair of flyers. Bit of wire.
00:21:00Here's a whistle.
00:21:04Aldrich. Rubber cement fluid.
00:21:08Any patching material in there? Yeah.
00:21:12Huh. Look at this.
00:21:16We can use it if we see another plane. Wish we'd have found that earlier.
00:21:20Oh, a water bag.
00:21:24It's empty.
00:21:30That's all she's got, chief.
00:21:34No fold-up oars under that thwart, Aldrich? Negative.
00:21:38Don't forget about the ham rail. It's about 25 feet of nylon.
00:21:42Yeah. And we've got these two lug nuts.
00:21:50No oars. No flashlights. No map.
00:21:54No food. No water.
00:21:58Negative.
00:22:02No.
00:22:06But if she stays afloat, at least I can figure her speed and distance.
00:22:14She looks practically new. That's good.
00:22:18Oh, here. Manufactured 11-30-37.
00:22:22It's four years old. Plus some.
00:22:26Boys, we should minimize the wear on the fabric.
00:22:30Shoes.
00:22:34Not much rum.
00:22:38On or off. They're liable to scuff. I say we deep-six them.
00:22:56They say it's five miles deep out here.
00:23:00That's impossible.
00:23:04Chief?
00:23:08I'm thinking maybe one of us should keep them.
00:23:12If we make land, somebody's gonna need to walk.
00:23:16Makes sense.
00:23:24Hey, we still got this.
00:23:28This, too. For a boy who can't swim, you were a fool to keep it.
00:23:32Couldn't get the rawhide loose.
00:23:36But you never know. Might come in handy.
00:23:48Youngstown, Ohio? Here?
00:23:52Yeah.
00:23:56I'm gonna have to go.
00:24:00I'm gonna have to go.
00:24:04Youngstown, Ohio? Here?
00:24:08Sexton, Missouri.
00:24:12Sexton? Where's that? Nowhere.
00:24:24Pastula, take another drift site.
00:24:28That's not how I'm reading those wave tops.
00:24:3215 degrees. That's not how I'm reading those wave tops.
00:24:44That's correct if she's east. I had her west.
00:24:48Aldrich?
00:24:52Reckon you've blown us to the middle of nowhere, chief. We're lost.
00:24:56Say again, Aldrich?
00:25:00That's the craziest thing I've ever heard.
00:25:04How is it possible that you have never had a Kentucky hot brown?
00:25:08I'm from Ohio. So you're not allowed to eat food from neighboring states?
00:25:12No.
00:25:16I don't live in Ohio.
00:25:30Ham and cheese.
00:25:34Now you're talking.
00:25:38I must have made a thousand of those in the Civilian Conservation Corps.
00:25:42The C's? Me too. I cooked for a hundred fellas.
00:25:46Two cooks and no food.
00:25:50So how'd you end up Navy?
00:25:54Well, a few too many mouths to feed at home. My mother thought I could become more disciplined.
00:25:58And I was ready for an adventure. So I enlisted.
00:26:02Well, you sure got an adventure.
00:26:06Mother could see me now.
00:26:10I want to make it a career and see the world.
00:26:14Career Navy. Good for you, son.
00:26:18In these troubled times, there is no higher calling.
00:26:22You think it's possible we'll get seen at night, chief?
00:26:26Wouldn't rule it out.
00:26:30This yellow raft, moonlight might...
00:26:34Well, no full moon tonight.
00:26:38No schedule to watch anyway. Four on, eight off. Who wants first up?
00:26:42I'll take it. I can't sleep anyhow.
00:26:46All right. I'll take second watch pastool.
00:26:50Okay, chief.
00:26:56Come on.
00:27:16Whoa.
00:27:20Don't memorize yet. Reckon it's been about four hours.
00:27:24You see anything? Just ocean.
00:27:38You had anything to drink yet, Aldrich?
00:27:42Drink? What?
00:27:54Oh, you gotta be kidding me, chief.
00:28:24Oh, that...
00:28:32That's just wonderful.
00:28:54Watch?
00:28:58Nothing.
00:29:02Pretty steady breeze, though.
00:29:06Henry!
00:29:10How long's the breeze been up?
00:29:14An hour, maybe.
00:29:18Same direction?
00:29:22Chief?
00:29:26Pastoola.
00:29:30Where are we?
00:29:341,900 miles to Hawaii.
00:29:38Samoa's 1,000.
00:29:42South America, 6,000 at least.
00:29:46But we are moving. Flat-bottom craft like this will sail along smartly.
00:29:50Six-knot winds.
00:30:00Six-knot wind will give us a drift of one.
00:30:04I bet we can get a 2.5 out of 12.
00:30:08Oh, she sure does like to change her mind, though.
00:30:12So, Hawaii.
00:30:16What's ahead? West?
00:30:20It's right the way the wind's blowing us now.
00:30:24The Phoenix Islands. The Gilberts.
00:30:28Tarawa. 600 miles or less.
00:30:32Ain't there Jap subs out there?
00:30:36What happens if we land on a Jap island?
00:30:40Before we know it, there could be a sub underneath us right now.
00:30:44There is. But we have a chance.
00:30:48All we need are some favorable winds to blow us south.
00:30:52There are islands between us and Samoa. 600 miles away.
00:30:56Two knots or so. I'd say a couple of weeks, give or take.
00:31:00A couple of weeks? It'd be a lot more accurate if I had my chart.
00:31:04We'll starve to death first.
00:31:08Well, plenty of fish in the sea, right?
00:31:12If only I had a hook and a line.
00:31:16All right, Aldrich. There's your line.
00:31:20Some braided cord in that pocket.
00:31:24Oh. And here.
00:31:28Maybe if I can get one of these magazines open, we can use one of those springs as a hook.
00:31:32That could work just fine. All right.
00:31:36You know what I could go for right now?
00:31:40Fish fry. Nice deep-fried basket of cod.
00:31:44Side of slaw and some potato salad.
00:31:48Whole thing smothered in cheese. Really? Cheese on fish?
00:31:52Hey, there ain't nothing I can't be improved with a good slab of cheese.
00:31:56There we go.
00:32:04All right.
00:32:08That ain't half bad.
00:32:12Need a sinker.
00:32:32Kind of looks like a piece of meat.
00:32:36Well, let's cast her off, all right?
00:32:40Watch your eyes. Here she goes.
00:33:00Whoa. That was quick.
00:33:04Give me a hand with this. All right. Come here.
00:33:08That's the way, boy.
00:33:14Guess something down there's hungrier than us.
00:33:18Sweet Mary.
00:33:34All right.
00:34:04Put this on your head.
00:34:10Suit yourself.
00:34:20Hey. What is it?
00:34:24It's nothing. For a second there, I thought we might be in line for a medal.
00:34:28Navy cross or something.
00:34:32Then I realized there's not much heroic about sitting in a raft and starving to death.
00:34:36Navy cross.
00:34:40We'll be lucky we don't get charged the cost of a new plane.
00:34:44Oh, heck. Wasn't anybody's fault, right?
00:34:48Perfectly good torpedo bomber lying in the bottom of the ocean.
00:34:52Sounds like it's gotta be somebody's fault.
00:34:56Damn fish are fighting.
00:35:00Whoa, whoa.
00:35:04Where you going? There ain't no fish.
00:35:08Which means there ain't no food.
00:35:12I can't take the heat no more.
00:35:16Yeah!
00:35:20Come on in, boys.
00:35:24Water's fine.
00:35:28No, no. One at a time.
00:35:32Hey, we got some real-life bait out there now, huh, Chief?
00:35:36That's another problem. Sharks?
00:35:40I don't know. They'd attack. I've heard arguments both ways.
00:35:44Chief's wondering about sharks.
00:35:48Oh, geez. Where you going?
00:35:54Just a few more strokes, Alder.
00:36:10We need to stay with the raft.
00:36:14I think if we hang on to the sides, we'll be safe.
00:36:18The others can stay on guard.
00:36:22Let's do it. You're next.
00:36:26No, thanks.
00:36:30See, that's why you gotta do it last.
00:36:34If you boil it for too long, it's gonna burn for sure.
00:36:38If you go too short, it's not gonna melt evenly.
00:36:46It's beautiful, isn't it?
00:36:50It'd be better if we could eat it.
00:36:58I was doing all right, see.
00:37:02I didn't expect no A.
00:37:06Just the mechanics course.
00:37:10I thought I ought to get a B or a C, and that would have been all right.
00:37:14I never really cared about making the best marks in school as long as I learned the stuff.
00:37:18And I had this course down good.
00:37:22I saw that report card and saw that big, shiny F.
00:37:26I just said to hell with this bullcrap and used my language.
00:37:30So what'd you do?
00:37:34I just walked out of school and never went back.
00:37:38And you had that course down good, you reckon?
00:37:42You bet I did.
00:37:46I did well enough, Chief.
00:37:50So you could dismantle and reassemble a drift site, much less take a reading on one?
00:37:54Yeah. Guess I could.
00:37:58Just strange, that's all. I had us headed west.
00:38:02Your sighting corrected us east.
00:38:06I'm discussing this with my bombardier, Aldrich.
00:38:10I know you confirmed it.
00:38:14Just saying it's strange, that's all.
00:38:18Okay, Chief.
00:38:26Strange, all right.
00:38:44Henry?
00:38:48Get on the pot.
00:39:14Let's do that.
00:39:38Ain't never a rule.
00:39:42Guy can have a handful and still be okay.
00:39:46Suck some water right out of your brains, I say.
00:39:50Coming up in 120 hours.
00:39:54Five days, not a sip.
00:39:58How come we ain't dead?
00:40:02We've been soaking ourselves.
00:40:06Not moving around too much.
00:40:10Well, alas.
00:40:18Not even a rudder.
00:40:22But you know where you want us to go, right, Chief?
00:40:26I know, but to calculate.
00:40:30Chief?
00:40:34A pencil.
00:40:38My all-darn-ever-loving pencil.
00:40:42You see? I can make a chart.
00:41:02You said east, two to three knots on your watch.
00:41:06Aldrich, more like southeast, two to three?
00:41:10Yeah, affirmative.
00:41:14Okay, then.
00:41:18Here we are, by dead reckoning.
00:41:22And where are we headed?
00:41:26Those islands I told you about, there's a chain of them to our southwest.
00:41:30Closest friendly land in the Pacific.
00:41:34What if it just keeps shifting, Chief?
00:41:38The chart don't take us nowhere.
00:41:42Unless...
00:41:46Unless we can hold our position in the headwind.
00:41:50Aldrich, untie the handrail.
00:41:54Costilla, I need you to take some of that wire
00:41:58and you make a frame to keep this from folding up in the water.
00:42:02Can you do it?
00:42:06You betcha.
00:42:10Aldrich, leave one end tied.
00:42:18Okay, good.
00:42:32Okay.
00:42:44Yeah, hold him up. Hold him up.
00:42:48Okay.
00:43:00Perfect!
00:43:04That, sailors, is a sea anchor.
00:43:08We may not be able to control the wind, but we can't avoid being blown the wrong way.
00:43:12That's nice work, Chief.
00:43:16Put on the brake.
00:43:20Look at her grab that wire.
00:43:24Hey, Tony, look, I'll be damned if I don't see a tear of joy on old Chief.
00:43:28He said we were too dried up for that.
00:43:32I do believe you're right.
00:43:36Okay.
00:43:40Man off the brake.
00:44:06Man, it isn't easy.
00:44:10But it might be worse.
00:44:14If we can keep this wind and just get a little rain.
00:44:18Well...
00:44:22I never heard that.
00:44:26Dear Lord.
00:44:30Chief, any prayers I know are in Polish.
00:44:34If I hadn't marked you for a church-going man, Aldrich,
00:44:38I'm sorry to say I'm not much of one.
00:44:42That's all right.
00:44:46Just follow my lead.
00:44:50Dear Lord,
00:44:54we know we ain't always done right by you.
00:44:58We're asking for a little help here during this trial.
00:45:02Uh...
00:45:06And, Lord,
00:45:10march over all the men back on our ship
00:45:14and all the ships at sea,
00:45:18including this one.
00:45:22Turn.
00:45:30Dear God,
00:45:34I'll go along with what the other guys said,
00:45:38but mostly we need some rain, Lord.
00:45:42Please.
00:45:46Rain, dear Lord. Please rain. Please.
00:45:50Amen.
00:45:58Oh, come on!
00:46:00Jeez, give him a second. He's gotta cook it up.
00:46:04Or maybe...
00:46:08it ain't gonna rain no more.
00:46:12Oh, it ain't gonna rain no more, no more.
00:46:16It ain't gonna rain no more.
00:46:20How in the hell can the old folks tell
00:46:24that it ain't gonna rain no more?
00:46:28Old Uncle Ned laid down by the sewer.
00:46:32By that sewer, he died.
00:46:36All the neighbors up and said,
00:46:40it must have been sewerside.
00:46:44That's a good one.
00:46:48Hey, Chief, you got one?
00:46:52Uh...
00:46:56Oh, it isn't going to rain any more, any more.
00:47:00It isn't going to rain any more.
00:47:04The grammar's good, but what a bore,
00:47:08Big finish!
00:47:10Oh, it ain't gonna rain no more, no more.
00:47:14It ain't gonna rain no more.
00:47:18Our song is done, but it sure was fun.
00:47:22Oh, it ain't gonna rain no more.
00:47:26Uh-uh.
00:47:38Uh-uh.
00:47:42Uh-uh.

00:48:18What's wrong?
00:48:22Nothing. Nothing.
00:48:26Uh...
00:48:30Uh...
00:48:34Hey.
00:48:38Hey.
00:48:42Hey! Battle stations, boys!
00:48:46We've got precipitation! I got the bag.
00:48:50Here it comes!
00:48:54Oh, yes! On the bail!
00:48:58Come on!
00:49:02Oh, no!

00:49:24We're sending prayers, boys!
00:49:26You gotta have a thanks Sunday school
00:49:28at First Baptist Church, Chief!
00:49:30Ha-ha!
00:49:32Ha-ha!
00:49:34Ha-ha!
00:49:36Ha-ha!
00:50:00Come on, you stupid fish.
00:50:02Haven't you ever seen a fish in line before?
00:50:06No week of nothing.
00:50:08By golly,
00:50:10odd that you are the most patient fisherman
00:50:12I've ever seen.
00:50:14Where I come from,
00:50:16don't catch, don't eat.
00:50:20I'm just going about this the wrong way, that's all.
00:50:26I'm just going about this the wrong way, that's all.
00:50:32Keep that knife in your pocket, like I told you.
00:50:36You put a hole in this raft.
00:50:38We don't eat soon.
00:50:40We might just as well, Chief.
00:50:42Aldrich, stew that knife.
00:50:44That's it, border!
00:50:46If you don't catch,
00:50:48you don't eat.
00:50:52Aldrich.
00:50:54I hit one.
00:50:56Stop it!
00:50:58I hit the raft.
00:51:00I hit the raft.
00:51:02God, you idiot.
00:51:04Don't move!
00:51:06I'll get the cement.
00:51:08I hit the raft, Chief.
00:51:10Don't let him go!
00:51:12Don't let him go!
00:51:14Don't let him go!
00:51:16I think I got him.
00:51:24I think I got him.
00:51:26I think I got him.
00:51:28I think I got him.
00:51:30I think I got him.
00:51:32Nice work, Bastilla.
00:51:34Atta boy, Tony.
00:51:36Fell out of the sky.
00:51:38Shark just fell out of the sky.
00:51:40Shark just fell out of the sky.
00:51:42Oh, geez.
00:51:52Oh, geez.
00:51:54Oh, geez.
00:51:56Oh, geez.
00:51:58Looks like she just had dinner.
00:52:00Looks like she just had dinner.
00:52:02Looks like she just had dinner.
00:52:28You got bait for another day or two?
00:52:30Probably some for an extra meal as well.
00:52:32Probably some for an extra meal as well.
00:52:34The salt will keep it.
00:52:36How far we got to those islands, Chief?
00:52:38According to the chart, roughly 390.
00:52:40According to the chart, roughly 390.
00:52:42Wind's out of the northeast, which is just right for us.
00:52:44Wind's out of the northeast, which is just right for us.
00:52:46If she switches on us, we just throw in the brake.
00:52:48No backsliding.
00:52:50We're going home.
00:52:52Boy, will my wife be sore.
00:52:54Yeah, I thought he was only married to the Navy.
00:53:02Neither of you boys are married?
00:53:04Nope.
00:53:06I got a girl back in Youngstown.
00:53:08Irene.
00:53:10Not me.
00:53:12I liked you someday.
00:53:14Hey, I got a sister.
00:53:16You two would get along.
00:53:18No kidding.
00:53:20Where's Sheila?
00:53:22Not much of an advertisement, Castillo.
00:53:24She don't look like me.
00:53:26She's, you know, easy to get along with.
00:53:28She's, you know, easy to get along with.
00:53:30And a lot prettier than me.
00:53:32Describe her to me.
00:53:34Really?
00:53:36Yeah, really.
00:53:38Well, she's about 5'4".
00:53:40Well, she's about 5'4".
00:53:42She's got long brown hair,
00:53:44She's got long brown hair,
00:53:46green eyes.
00:53:48This is kind of weird, Gene.
00:53:50Keep going.
00:53:52Keep going.
00:53:54She's a whiz in the kitchen.
00:53:56She likes to read.
00:53:58She wears clothes.
00:54:00She wears clothes.
00:54:02She wears clothes.
00:54:04Well, I certainly hope so.
00:54:06Clothes are not a requirement in my books.
00:54:08Hey, that's my sister you're talking about.
00:54:10And when we get through this,
00:54:12I'll thank you for setting me up with her.
00:54:14She sounds lovely.
00:54:16Ah.
00:54:18Ah.
00:54:24We got company.
00:54:26Must be all the blood in the water.
00:54:28I bet they can smell it for miles.
00:54:30I bet they can smell it for miles.
00:54:32What do we do?
00:54:34Well, for starters,
00:54:36I say we cancel
00:54:38the swimming program.
00:54:46I say we cancel
00:54:48the swimming program.
00:54:50Oh.
00:54:52Oh.
00:54:54Oh.
00:54:56Oh.

00:55:39Cease fire! Cease fire!
00:55:42Can you see this?
00:55:44Oh, jeez.
00:55:46Three teeth marks at least.
00:55:48One nail's ripped off.
00:55:50Oh, jeez.
00:55:52Can you see?
00:55:56Well, I've heard of fishing by hand,
00:55:58but that's ridiculous.
00:56:00Is it bad?
00:56:02I'll get a better look at it in the morning.
00:56:06Keep pressure on him.
00:56:11-♪♪
00:56:21-♪♪
00:56:26What do they call us, Chief?
00:56:29What?
00:56:32Missing in action or...
00:56:34what?
00:56:36Uh...
00:56:39Lost at sea.
00:56:41That's all they care.
00:56:45Lost at sea.
00:56:47No trace of aircraft or personnel was found.

01:01:22Good work, Chief!
01:01:24♪♪
01:01:27Oh, shit!
01:01:29Double time, Chief!
01:01:31Come on, Chief!
01:01:33Come on, come on!
01:01:35♪♪
01:01:38Oh, no!
01:01:41Shit, the sail's jammed!

01:02:11Look at the size of them!
01:02:13Come on!
01:02:35Ain't bad.
01:02:37Could use cheese.
01:02:39Huh?
01:02:41Jake, I could use cheese.
01:02:44Tastes like chicken.
01:02:46Raw chicken.
01:02:52So I thought when you saw a bird, it means you knew the land.
01:02:56Not this bird.
01:02:58They range thousands of miles.
01:03:03I still can't believe you shot an albatross.
01:03:06Why?
01:03:08Never mind.
01:03:11Come on, eat up.

01:03:38♪♪
01:04:09I don't blame you.
01:04:12I'd leave if I could, too.
01:04:26Pastoola, take another drift sight.
01:04:28That's not how I'm reading those wave tops.
01:04:33Pastoola?
01:04:39Aldrich!
01:04:41We've lost Pastoola!
01:04:43Aldrich!
01:04:48Enterprise, this is 6-10-12.
01:04:51No, check that. 6-10-14 requesting an inbound bearing.
01:04:56Enterprise!
01:04:59Enterprise, help me!
01:05:08There's no watch.
01:05:28All hands on deck.
01:05:32I give the order.
01:05:34All hands on deck.
01:05:37I gave orders to maintain a 24-hour watch.
01:05:42And you are sleeping on duty.
01:05:44What difference does it make?
01:05:46If that wind shifts and we don't deploy our anchor,
01:05:50we lose ground, Aldrich.
01:05:52I don't feel any wind, Chief.
01:05:54It's because of the rain. It's been dead for two days.
01:05:56Shut your mouth! Just shut your mouth!
01:06:00I ordered a watch. There will be a watch.
01:06:03Sure, Chief.
01:06:05Whatever you say.
01:06:07I'll take the watch.
01:06:09No, you won't.
01:06:11You want a damn watch so bad,
01:06:13why don't you sit here staring at nothing all day?
01:06:15I do my share. More.
01:06:17What's that supposed to mean?
01:06:19Who do you think is navigating this ship? Are you?
01:06:21And where are these islands you told us about?
01:06:24Yeah.
01:06:26It must be close, right?
01:06:28Don't you touch that!
01:06:30You boys, you can't even swim.
01:06:32Let's read a map.
01:06:34Let me ask you something.
01:06:36How'd you come up with that chart of yours, anyway?
01:06:39I studied the area map in the writing room every day.
01:06:42I have a rough picture of it in my mind.
01:06:44Plus or minus 10%, I'm hoping for.
01:06:46After that, it's simple dead reckoning.
01:06:49A rough picture?
01:06:51Dead reckoning works when you know where you're starting from, right?
01:06:56So this route you figured
01:06:58is based on where you think we went down,
01:07:01followed by a bunch of estimates after that
01:07:03and where we've gotten each day.
01:07:05What's your point? My point?
01:07:07The reason we went down is because
01:07:10you didn't know where we were to start with.
01:07:12Now, hold on.
01:07:14That's why we couldn't find the ship.
01:07:16That's why I couldn't raise her on the radio.
01:07:18You would have gotten us so far off, we were out of range.
01:07:21I tried to take that into account.
01:07:23You're missing a real map!
01:07:25And here we've gone, all these days,
01:07:27without so much as a compass.
01:07:29In the first couple of days, we hardly kept track.
01:07:33And you're gonna put us on some teeny islands
01:07:35in the middle of all this.
01:07:39I... I...
01:07:41Don't call a big guess.
01:07:43Is that it, chief? No.
01:07:45Listen. Yes, yes.
01:07:47Yes, I'm relying on my recall.
01:07:49I may have made a few estimates, but I...
01:07:51I was trying to head us
01:07:53dead center to these islands,
01:07:55so even if we were off somewhat...
01:07:57What do you mean, was trying?
01:07:59When are you expecting to see them?
01:08:13Three days ago.
01:08:17Or four.
01:08:19There should be islands all around us by now.
01:08:25We missed them.
01:08:31We missed them.
01:08:35That's the way islands are, Tony.
01:08:37Didn't you know?
01:08:39You raise them in the past.
01:08:41It's a one-chance deal.
01:08:43You miss Hawaii, next stop, Tokyo.
01:08:45Now, you listen to me.
01:08:47I reckon we're dead out here.
01:08:49Do you want to take over?
01:08:51Smart mouth! Guys, please.
01:08:53I don't give a goddamn!
01:08:55And you're Mr. High and Mighty,
01:08:57keeping your shoes
01:08:59after we've thrown ours away.
01:09:01And you're all over me about the radio,
01:09:03like I'd missed something.
01:09:07What'd Aldridge do with the radio?
01:09:09And you're all over Tony about his trip site.
01:09:11You guys got the same read on both legs?
01:09:13What the hell were you doing up there,
01:09:15besides getting us lost
01:09:17on the biggest body of water
01:09:19in the whole damn world?
01:09:23Chief, I've lost the beacon. Over.
01:09:27Are we close, Chief?
01:09:31Maybe his comm is down.
01:09:33I'll give him a tap.
01:09:35Chief?
01:09:37Can you hear us? Over.
01:09:39Chief? Can you hear us? Over.
01:09:43Loud and clear, boys.
01:09:45Just waiting for this wind to tell me
01:09:47which way she wants to blow.
01:09:57I think I fell asleep.
01:10:05It was so hot up there.
01:10:07It couldn't have been
01:10:09more than a couple minutes, but...
01:10:15So we missed the turn.
01:10:19And by the time that we made it...
01:10:21It's way too late.
01:10:30I got us lost.
01:10:33And I don't know how to square it with you boys.
01:10:35Ever.
01:10:37I can't.
01:10:42I am a pilot...
01:10:44who lost his plane...
01:10:48and his crew...
01:10:52and myself.
01:10:55And myself.
01:11:02I'm terribly sorry.
01:11:07I'm terribly sorry, men.
01:11:12I'm sorry.
01:11:24I'm sorry.
01:11:54This map ain't much.
01:12:02But it's the only thing we got to get us home.
01:12:16Looks like the only wind we're generating
01:12:18is our own, fellas.
01:12:20I reckon so.
01:12:22That is exactly what we need to do.
01:12:27Where are my shoes?
01:12:29Get back up.
01:12:33Give me a knife.
01:12:35Please give me a knife.
01:12:53Okay.
01:13:05Gentlemen.
01:13:08Let's make our own wind.
01:13:22Tell you what.
01:13:24Whoever sees land first gets dinner.
01:13:27Anything he wants, anywhere he wants.
01:13:29The other two will buy it.
01:13:31Deal.
01:13:33Stroke. Stroke. Stroke.
01:13:36You won't find that funny in a few minutes.
01:13:38Stroke. Stroke.
01:13:40Damn.
01:13:52Henry?
01:14:17Henry?
01:14:20Put on...
01:14:22the pot.
01:14:44Okay.
01:14:46Let's get to it.
01:14:49Yeah.
01:14:53Gene.
01:15:20I don't need no insurance.
01:15:26Insurance?
01:15:28Life insurance.
01:15:32I have a $5,000 policy to go to my mother.
01:15:37Wondering if she was able to collect...
01:15:41after a whole month.
01:15:43I imagine so.
01:15:45I wonder how Irene's getting on.
01:15:47She sounds like a real nice girl.
01:15:54She works for a doctor now.
01:15:56You said that.
01:15:59I used to write her poetry.
01:16:02We'd sure like to hear one of those poems.
01:16:05Yeah, that's right.
01:16:09Give us a poem.
01:16:17Sorry.
01:16:47You all right, boys?
01:16:49You might be getting a drink.
01:16:52It's a strange one.
01:16:55Erho.
01:16:57Erho.
01:16:59Erho.
01:17:01Erho.
01:17:03Erho.
01:17:05Erho.
01:17:07Erho.
01:17:09Erho.
01:17:11Erho.
01:17:13Erho.
01:17:16Erhart.
01:17:18You know, that woman flyer?
01:17:20Amelia Erhart.
01:17:22She went down in these parts, right?
01:17:27Here it comes.
01:17:45That was chilly.
01:18:05Another shower?
01:18:06I don't like it.
01:18:07Clouds are moving in opposite directions.
01:18:08What is it?
01:18:09Get ready.
01:18:10We're going to have to bail fast.
01:18:12Is it hurricanes in the Pacific?
01:18:13I don't think so.
01:18:14I don't think so.
01:18:15I don't think so.
01:18:16I don't think so.
01:18:17I don't think so.
01:18:18I don't think so.
01:18:19I don't think so.
01:18:20I don't think so.
01:18:21I don't think so.
01:18:22I don't think so.
01:18:23I don't think so.
01:18:24I don't think so.
01:18:25I don't think so.
01:18:26I don't think so.
01:18:27I don't think so.
01:18:28I don't think so.
01:18:29I don't think so.
01:18:30I don't think so.
01:18:31I don't think so.
01:18:32I don't think so.
01:18:33I don't think so.
01:18:34I don't think so.
01:18:35I don't think so.
01:18:36I don't think so.
01:18:37I don't think so.
01:18:38I don't think so.
01:18:39Is it hurricanes in the Pacific?
01:18:41Affirmative.
01:18:43So when's hurricane season?
01:18:48Why do I keep asking these questions?
01:19:00Take this!
01:19:01Why?
01:19:02You can't win, remember?
01:19:03You can't win, remember?
01:19:08Is that what I'm going for right now?
01:19:10Get down!
01:19:15Gene!
01:19:16Gene!
01:19:17Where is he?
01:19:19Where is he?
01:19:20Gene!
01:19:21Gene!
01:19:25We're coming, Gene!
01:19:26Come on!
01:19:27Come on, Gene!
01:19:34Yeah!
01:19:39Stay with the raft!
01:19:44Hang on!
01:20:04Gene!
01:20:05Where's Tony?
01:20:06He lost him.
01:20:16Work your way around!
01:20:17See if you can find him!
01:20:20Tony!
01:20:21Tony!
01:20:23Tony!
01:20:24Tony!
01:20:26Tony!
01:20:27Tony!
01:20:28Tony!
01:20:29Tony!
01:20:31Tony!
01:20:32Tony!
01:20:33Tony!
01:20:34Tony!
01:20:37Tony!
01:20:44You okay?
01:20:45Gene!
01:20:47Gene!
01:20:49Good boy.
01:20:57Hold it!
01:20:58We have to prep her!
01:21:00On my mark!
01:21:02We'll lift and let the wind catch up, but hold on to it.
01:21:07Yeah.
01:21:081, 2, 3.
01:21:11Ah!
01:21:16You go around the other side.
01:21:20I'll hold it down.
01:21:21You get in first.
01:21:22Let's go.
01:21:28Yeah, look.
01:21:29Again.
01:21:31Good.
01:21:36Rock on!
01:21:59Rub-a-dub-dub.
01:22:06Three men in the tub.
01:22:09Who do you think they be?
01:22:14The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker.
01:22:20Ten of them.
01:22:21Naves, all three.
01:22:24How is it I just now thought of that one?
01:22:29The raft will sink, won't it?
01:22:35Yeah.
01:22:39There'll be nothing left of us.
01:22:44No.
01:22:47No one will know we survived all this time.
01:22:52No.
01:22:56Suppose one of us dies.
01:23:01What do the others do?
01:23:05Gene, you're always talking about food.
01:23:07What do you think?
01:23:10The liver, anyhow.
01:23:13Heart, if you can get to it.
01:23:15But we lost suppliers.
01:23:17And your pocket knife.
01:23:21Kid needs to be easy.
01:23:24They have one for each man.
01:23:32I think we need some other kind of talk.
01:23:36I'm trying with everything so far away.
01:23:42I just remember something.
01:23:47My wife.
01:23:52She had a pretty yellow dress.
01:23:57She burned a hole in it with a cigarette.
01:24:01So she sewed a little white dove over the hole.
01:24:06I can picture the dress and the dove.
01:24:13But I can't really see her face.
01:24:31Tony.
01:24:33Huh?
01:24:37I do believe I'm in love with your sister.
01:24:42Oh, man.
01:24:44You'll make a great couple.
01:24:50I want you boys to know, if we had made it,
01:24:56I would have put you in for commendations.
01:25:00They would have listened to me after my court-martial.
01:25:03Court-martial?
01:25:07Mr. Stuler, you think of anything
01:25:10they could be court-martialing the chief for?
01:25:13Not a thing I can think of, Aldrich.
01:25:17Me neither.
01:25:20I'm sorry it has to end this way.
01:25:28Man plots his course.
01:25:32But the Lord decides.
01:25:57All right.
01:26:01Enough of that bullshit.
01:26:06Seems to me, if God chose our course,
01:26:14it's because he wants us to make it.
01:26:19Right?
01:26:25Either way,
01:26:29we've come way too far to give up now.
01:27:30Tom.
01:27:34Tom.
01:28:00Gene.
01:28:03Gene.
01:28:15Holy, holy.
01:28:20Tony.
01:28:26You can hear music.
01:28:30What kind of music, Tony?
01:28:35Can you hear it?
01:28:39Yeah.
01:28:44Can you hear it?
01:28:53I see a beautiful field of corn.
01:28:58I saw our fleet twice yesterday.
01:29:15I don't know.
01:29:19Something green.
01:29:23I loved you.
01:29:34Get up.
01:29:38Get up.
01:29:42Get up.
01:30:04Gene Aldrich, you have won yourself a dinner.
01:30:10Yeah!
01:30:17Yeah, Tom!
01:30:19Yeah!
01:30:24Yeah, Tom!
01:30:32Thank you.
01:30:34Thank you.
01:30:36Tom!
01:30:40Tom!
01:31:00Stand down.
01:31:02Stand down.
01:31:04I tried it.
01:31:13What are those Japanese?
01:31:17What choice do we have?
01:31:22It's my line, man.
01:31:24We might be going over.
01:31:34It's going away!
01:32:04It's going away!
01:32:34It's going away!
01:33:05Look.
01:33:09Look.
01:33:34Look.
01:34:04Look.
01:34:34It's gone.
01:35:04It's gone.
01:35:35It's gone.
01:35:39It's gone.
01:35:43It's gone.
01:35:47It's gone.
01:35:51It's gone.
01:35:55It's gone.
01:35:59It's gone.
01:36:19The night was dark and dreary
01:36:24Ain't it going to rain no more, no more, ain't it going to rain no more?
01:36:33But how in the world can you hope, tell, ain't it going to rain no more?
01:36:40Well, a butterfly flits on wings of gold, the June bug wings of flame.
01:36:47The bed bug has no wings at all, but he gets there just the same.
01:36:53Oh, it ain't going to rain no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more.
01:37:01How in the world can you hope, tell, ain't it going to rain no more?
01:37:07Oh, a mosquito, he fly high. Oh, a mosquito, he fly low.
01:37:14If old Mr. Skeeter lied on me, he ain't going to fly no more.
01:37:21Oh, it ain't going to rain no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more.
01:37:28How in the world can you hope, tell, ain't it going to rain no more?
01:37:34Well, a bullfrog sitting on a lily pad, looking up at the sky.
01:37:40Oh, the lily pad broke and the frog fell in, got water all in his eyes.
01:37:47Oh, it ain't going to rain no more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more.
01:37:54How in the world can you hope, tell, ain't it going to rain no more?
01:38:00Well, here's a verse about a man and a trombone. Well, the words to it are for you.
01:38:07He blew, he blew, he blew, he blew, he blew, he blew, he blew.
01:38:14Oh, it ain't going to rain no more, no more, no more.
01:38:18Oh, how in the world can you hope, tell, ain't it going to rain no more?
01:38:28Well, a man lay down by a sewer, and by the sewer he died, he died.
01:38:35And at the coroner's request, they called it suicide.
01:38:41Oh, it ain't going to rain no more, no more. Oh, Lord, ain't going to rain no more.
01:38:48How in the world can you hope, tell, ain't it going to rain no more?
01:38:54A little black and white animal out in the woods, I says, ain't that little cat pretty?
01:39:01I went right over to pick it up, but it wasn't that kind of a kitty.
01:39:07Oh, it ain't going to rain no more, no more, ain't it going to rain no more.
01:39:14But how in the world can you hope, tell, ain't it going to rain no more?
01:39:21No more, no more, no more.
