ever wanna hear you say that. Wow, you are frying.

128
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:24,439
Men aren't supposed to cry space for two hundred years.

129
00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:28,079
The world hasn't had a war for two hundred years.

130
00:07:28,079 --> 00:07:32,360
The human race finally got peace federated world. In the

131
00:07:32,439 --> 00:07:39,560
years after two thousand, science flourishes, civilization grows. Then we

132
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,839
learn how to travel in outer space, first the Moon

133
00:07:43,959 --> 00:07:51,279
for scientific observations, then we go on to other planets. Mars,

134
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,079
the one planet we know is capable of sustaining human life,

135
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,439
and all the two hundred years of peace gets rotted

136
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,319
away because the Earth wants to explore Mars, and the

137
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,759
Martians object new worlds to conquer. Where the Columbus is

138
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:15,240
of two thousand plus, and the interplanetary war begins. We

139
00:08:15,319 --> 00:08:19,079
have to fight for every canal, every inch on Mars. Well,

140
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,000
I don't want any son of mine thinking it's so great.

141
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 7: I hate it, hate it.

142
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,639
Speaker 4: I was gonna play Space Soldiers.

143
00:08:28,199 --> 00:08:29,279
Speaker 9: With Space Soldier?

144
00:08:29,319 --> 00:08:31,439
Speaker 1: What did I do for you? Full of the romance

145
00:08:31,519 --> 00:08:35,039
of Mars or mysteries of the unknown. How can you

146
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,679
or anybody on this particular world though, what it's like

147
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:43,879
in that unhuman place called Mars play Space soldier play.

148
00:08:46,039 --> 00:08:52,440
I remember the patrol patrol into the red grass, blade,

149
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,000
sharpest sword and covered with that sickening oos of the

150
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:01,480
Martian vegetation. We went on patrol of us. I was

151
00:09:01,519 --> 00:09:10,399
the patrole leader. Alright, let's stuttle in it.

152
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 2: Oh oh, oh.

153
00:09:13,799 --> 00:09:15,519
Speaker 1: Kay, at what again? Do you see anything?

154
00:09:16,279 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 9: Just the red grass? Oh wait, about a mile and

155
00:09:19,279 --> 00:09:20,759
a half over there are sand belt.

156
00:09:20,759 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 1: Can give me a glasses right, yeah, that's right.

157
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 9: Every the grass meets the sand belt. We gotta be careful.

158
00:09:28,879 --> 00:09:32,679
Those sand spiders more dangerous than a cobra. One bite

159
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,879
and you're dead in half a minute. Men are all

160
00:09:34,919 --> 00:09:37,120
wearing shin boots. We better put on our mask and

161
00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:40,240
gloves too. Sometimes a spider crawls up the clothing.

162
00:09:40,879 --> 00:09:44,759
Speaker 1: Okay, masks and gloves protect your gear, protective gear on.

163
00:09:45,039 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 9: Uh, it's too quiet. I've almost got the feeling the

164
00:09:49,399 --> 00:09:51,080
Martians are around when it's just quiet.

165
00:09:51,159 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know what you mean. We'll go on. Uh. Leo,

166
00:09:53,799 --> 00:09:56,679
you take four men and cover the left, use electric rifle, yes, sir.

167
00:09:56,759 --> 00:10:00,200
I Mulroney take four men and cover the right. Torpedo pistol, yes, sir, Ted,

168
00:10:00,279 --> 00:10:02,039
and I'll take the other man and move straight on.

169
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,679
Ted will use atomic show clips in our guns. We

170
00:10:05,799 --> 00:10:08,639
meet opposition and have to blast them. Leos and Maroney's

171
00:10:08,639 --> 00:10:10,480
groups can cover us as we move around the area

172
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:14,200
we've radiated. Better keep our belt, Geiger Counter's handy.

173
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 9: Okay, let's move this slime from the grass sticks.

174
00:10:24,039 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: To every time careful because it's a sharp rush.

175
00:10:30,879 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 9: There certainly aren't any Martians on that sand oughter. We'd

176
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,519
see him. They're around here at all. They're between us

177
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,600
and the sand bot hiding in this red grass.

178
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 1: Away amost step on a stothard.

179
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 9: I didn't see it.

180
00:10:44,159 --> 00:10:49,879
Speaker 1: A toothflowers flowers and hard as ivory. It's a carnivorous plant.

181
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,080
You walk too close to it, it'll bite your leg and.

182
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,759
Speaker 9: Half Mars the nightmare planet.

183
00:10:56,759 --> 00:10:59,639
Speaker 1: And we'll keep moving and keep your eyes, peels of

184
00:10:59,799 --> 00:11:02,200
kile vegetation. An enemy martian.

185
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 9: Setting hot.

186
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: Always gets like a moment about the day.

187
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 9: You know, scrope is moving ahead. Apparently they found nothing dangerous. Judge, Hello, Hello,

188
00:11:19,399 --> 00:11:22,679
I am waving. Everything's okay. I'll be too sure.

189
00:11:22,919 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 1: Step over there, handstorm whipping across the sand belt like,

190
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,159
come up in seconds, blast by one hundreds of miles

191
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:38,720
an hour, and I abny dot hit who's all over

192
00:11:40,279 --> 00:11:43,200
the grass blades like an adium staker lying down in

193
00:11:43,279 --> 00:11:44,519
a bed of knife.

194
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 9: Hundred doors, hunt the sand thorns?

195
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:01,559
Speaker 1: Lets me.

196
00:12:03,639 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 9: Up, going down, farm, going down?

197
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: Wait a few seconds, all right.

198
00:12:17,639 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 7: Get up?

199
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:29,159
Speaker 9: Seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, twelfth. Two men missing

200
00:12:29,399 --> 00:12:31,799
becomes Leo.

201
00:12:33,919 --> 00:12:35,399
Speaker 1: Two men Davis and Martin. What happened?

202
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 9: Are dead? Sir Wind threw a Davis jacket. A sand

203
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:39,960
spider bit him. Wind carried a swarm up.

204
00:12:39,919 --> 00:12:40,399
Speaker 1: Into the ground.

205
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 9: What about Martin? I don't know what caused it.

206
00:12:42,279 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: He's dead, al right, come on, let's take away.

207
00:12:49,799 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 4: Here.

208
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,519
Speaker 9: He is, sir, Hein is natural and not blue the

209
00:12:52,519 --> 00:12:53,720
way it turns when the sand.

210
00:12:53,519 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 1: Spider kills you. Let me see, good lord, what's the matter.

211
00:12:57,399 --> 00:13:00,639
The Martians Marsians that got enduring the same storm must

212
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,279
be around somewhere. Look at his back where I opened

213
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:08,240
the jacket hit by a sonic beam. Right, super sound wave,

214
00:13:08,279 --> 00:13:11,639
gadget of ass trings your gusts of jelly emotions a

215
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:16,960
hero right now, warn the men right on. Give me

216
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:21,080
your pocket magnet speaker quick here right, Leo, crawling your

217
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,480
belly over to the boys, keep going, okay, let me

218
00:13:23,519 --> 00:13:26,080
know when you get there. Meanwhile, I'll talk with the

219
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:31,879
magnet speaker. Yes, sir, the martians will hear me. So

220
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,039
here's some lingo they won't understand.

221
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:41,879
Speaker 3: Now, yes day we got company routine. You figure happy

222
00:13:42,399 --> 00:13:43,480
and remember.

223
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 9: The animal's Leo.

224
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: Then here, can't see him.

225
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,799
Speaker 9: Wait, he's coming on the new way chest talking.

226
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:53,159
Speaker 1: Step on your your front.

227
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:58,879
Speaker 9: Okay, Leo, how shine of the enemy were shining out?

228
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:00,440
Are covered by the red grass?

229
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 3: We passed words shoot first good, that's an electric rifle.

230
00:14:06,399 --> 00:14:08,279
Speaker 9: Enemy said it the chilly cut when there reads two

231
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:08,960
hundred yards.

232
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,879
Speaker 1: Let's move in. Give me everything, yes, sir, go on

233
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,440
that right.

234
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:12,879
Speaker 4: But here.

235
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: I heard her trying to crawl through this grass. Compedo pistols.

236
00:14:26,759 --> 00:14:31,159
All on his groups may contact Leo Leo yuh. Whoever

237
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,240
reaches one hundred yards. Throw atomic grenade right, and.

238
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:36,879
Speaker 9: Martians haven't returned any fire yet.

239
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 1: They're probably waiting to ley it closer and they'll fan

240
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,200
the area with that sonic beam of the ass.

241
00:14:42,639 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 9: She'd loaves at one hundred yards.

242
00:14:44,279 --> 00:14:45,039
Speaker 4: He's throwing the cookies.

243
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:58,639
Speaker 1: Any second, plug your ears check. I should have cleaned

244
00:14:58,679 --> 00:15:02,080
him out, and we've gotta be careful. We can't go

245
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,240
in to see. We don't have any anti radiation gear.

246
00:15:04,679 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 9: No sound from the Martians, nothing.

247
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,919
Speaker 1: Leo, leo, any report from you.

248
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 9: I think we got absolutely no sign of life.

249
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: Moved souths a few hundred yards, then east. Probe their position.

250
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,679
Speaker 9: Right, Captain, I'm pretty sure it's all player.

251
00:15:22,279 --> 00:15:25,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, probably right. I just feel conservative.

252
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 9: Right now I'll be trying to verify the Martians are

253
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,679
cleaned out. This heat is stinking grass.

254
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,039
Speaker 1: What are planning? At least the moon is dead? Why

255
00:15:35,039 --> 00:15:37,480
would we set us when we got to the moon. No,

256
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,519
we had to go on to this forsaken Listen to.

257
00:15:40,519 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 8: The sunny theme.

258
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,039
Speaker 1: The Martians are attacking us. We had a group of

259
00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:47,360
the South were shattering of clowns.

260
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,279
Speaker 9: We can't help just for the thirst to old man,

261
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,240
don't you think I know that what are two of

262
00:15:53,279 --> 00:15:54,440
us against the Martian patrol?

263
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: Try to reach Leo?

264
00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 8: Leo, Leo, Come in, Leo?

265
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:01,240
Speaker 7: Why John get over here?

266
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 1: You're staying here. We got to stay here and try.

267
00:16:03,759 --> 00:16:04,399
Speaker 7: To get out later.

268
00:16:04,559 --> 00:16:08,799
Speaker 8: But Leo, Neil's my brother, my brother.

269
00:16:22,279 --> 00:16:26,679
Speaker 6: Well, here's Joe mac Darling. I hope you like.

270
00:16:27,639 --> 00:16:29,519
Speaker 1: But Billy I thought he was in.

271
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 5: Here with you.

272
00:16:30,399 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: He went up to play. I don't know.

273
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 6: Oh, he has been so looking forward to having his

274
00:16:36,799 --> 00:16:39,480
daddy back. All the kids in the neighborhood are waiting

275
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:39,919
to meet you.

276
00:16:40,519 --> 00:16:42,879
Speaker 4: He's been booting about you for months.

277
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 6: Ever since we got worried that you were coming home.

278
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, Michael, is something wrong?

279
00:16:49,559 --> 00:16:50,919
Speaker 6: Did you and Billy have a corner?

280
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: He's he's a stranger to me, married a stranger. You're wrong, Sorry,

281
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,720
he was just a baby when I left. I I

282
00:17:00,759 --> 00:17:01,840
can't get used to him.

283
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 7: Oh, but you will. You can't help loving him.

284
00:17:05,519 --> 00:17:07,279
Speaker 1: I can't get to know him until he stops this

285
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,559
terrible business of reminding me all the time, reminding me

286
00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:11,519
of what I want to forget.

287
00:17:11,799 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 6: But he's proud of you, of what you've done you.

288
00:17:14,799 --> 00:17:16,839
Speaker 1: I told him what it was really like up there.

289
00:17:18,759 --> 00:17:21,400
He ran out of here crying. Michael, what do you

290
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,200
want me to do? Throw out my chest and brag

291
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,519
about being a hero. Pretend that a planet called Mars

292
00:17:26,559 --> 00:17:29,160
that Satan himself with aid of a few million devils

293
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,640
must have created. Pretend that Mars is heaven, that fighting

294
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,640
a war so far away it takes months to get

295
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:40,640
there is fun for the kiddies. I'm I'm sorry, Marry.

296
00:17:40,279 --> 00:17:43,039
Just leave me alone.

297
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:44,319
Speaker 6: Michael.

298
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 1: This isn't like you. How do you know what I'm like?

299
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,160
After all these years, I hardly know myself at this moment,

300
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,960
five years away from people, away even from the one

301
00:17:57,039 --> 00:17:59,640
world in the universe it contains human beings.

302
00:18:00,039 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 4: Were other men with you all the time?

303
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 8: Hundred thousands of them? What do you mean you were alone?

304
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,319
Speaker 1: You don't understand, Michael's darling.

305
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 5: I'm worried about you.

306
00:18:10,799 --> 00:18:15,759
Speaker 1: A spaceship half a mile long, eleven weeks in flight,

307
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:20,039
confined quarters, the same blank faces of men torn from

308
00:18:20,079 --> 00:18:26,279
their planet, catapulted into infinity, a fleck of controlled cosmic dust,

309
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:32,480
and being alone and on Mars. The base dug underground,

310
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:37,319
living in plastic shells for barracks, never being able to

311
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,839
move except on patrols. All of us men in a

312
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:49,400
nightmare and being alone in our souls alone. Give me

313
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,160
some coffee, all that mighty.

314
00:18:59,039 --> 00:18:59,519
Speaker 8: Here you are.

315
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 7: Thanks, Michael.

316
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,519
Speaker 6: You're home now and you're not alone anymore.

317
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,720
Speaker 1: It's good coffee.

318
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 6: But tomorrow, tomorrow, afternoon and evening, that is. Yes, I'm

319
00:19:17,039 --> 00:19:19,559
giving a party for you. At first, I was going

320
00:19:19,599 --> 00:19:23,119
to have it a surprise for you, but I think you.

321
00:19:23,079 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 1: Should know I don't want a party.

322
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,839
Speaker 4: We've all families here and all your old friends.

323
00:19:29,079 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 5: They want to see you, Michael. Everyone's so happy you're home.

324
00:19:32,039 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 1: Call it off. I don't want to see them, and

325
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,319
you understand I don't want to see them. They're smug. Hello,

326
00:19:39,559 --> 00:19:43,240
they're glad you're back. Chader though, what's it like in

327
00:19:43,279 --> 00:19:48,480
another world? And how's mars? Old man questions? They wouldn't

328
00:19:48,519 --> 00:19:51,240
understand the answers if I could somehow force myself.

329
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,839
Speaker 8: To talk about it, But it won't be like that.

330
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:54,440
They love you.

331
00:19:54,599 --> 00:19:56,079
Speaker 1: They're happy to time.

332
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 7: Lo Darling.

333
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 5: You can't go on likely fighting the Martians and your

334
00:20:03,279 --> 00:20:08,400
memories and fighting the human beings who love you. For

335
00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,359
your sake, Michael, I am not going to call off

336
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,359
the party. Everyone is coming, just as I plan and

337
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,759
you've got to meet them and see for yourself.

338
00:20:16,759 --> 00:20:19,519
Speaker 4: You've got to understand for yourself, and you're home again

339
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:21,359
on earth, and.

340
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,599
Speaker 5: That you have a life to live once more.

341
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 1: Do you mean that, Mary?

342
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:30,039
Speaker 4: I do, Michael, Dolly, I do because.

343
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 5: I love you.

344
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:37,799
Speaker 1: Well, I'm really a stranger in this house, not really

345
00:20:37,839 --> 00:20:43,960
the head of it. Still alone, the barracks filled with chintz.

346
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:45,079
Speaker 3: Havana.

347
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:52,039
Speaker 1: Boy. All right, marry, have your party without the guests, Savanna.

348
00:20:53,960 --> 00:21:15,039
Speaker 7: Michael, Michael, h It's good to get out of the house.

349
00:21:16,079 --> 00:21:25,799
Speaker 1: Walk or walk forever, sunshiny, beautiful, peaceful trees, tall trees,

350
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:31,920
green and yellow leaves. No red grass, no red grass anywhere.

351
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:41,039
The birds, the wonderful signs they made five years never

352
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:44,680
saw never, never heard a bird. The only creatures that

353
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,599
ever made a sound of There was a Martian controlly, fat,

354
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:54,640
greasy lizards that screamed like tortured souls. Look at us.

355
00:21:54,720 --> 00:22:01,000
Flowered blue screens, burd orange, clean.

356
00:22:00,839 --> 00:22:10,799
Speaker 10: White, sweet, glorious, smell peaceful, so peaceful in which to

357
00:22:10,839 --> 00:22:11,359
be alone.

358
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 1: The grass. The grass was short, soft, carpet like blades,

359
00:22:18,599 --> 00:22:23,960
a carpet of green, cool and gentle. I just sit

360
00:22:24,079 --> 00:22:29,119
on the grass. Why on the grass and rest, rest

361
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:37,400
and think, think, think. I remember when Tad and I

362
00:22:37,599 --> 00:22:41,680
got back to command post. The Martian sky was darker.

363
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,920
Clouds of that ever looked like these clouds. We hadn't

364
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,119
spoken to each other for a long while. Now we

365
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:53,079
got away alive from the ambush I'll never know. And

366
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:58,319
now we were coming to the base and the commander

367
00:23:08,559 --> 00:23:11,039
that the four report, Captain, Yes, Commander that writes, sir,

368
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,720
the fourth success pil ambushed by the Martians in as

369
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,200
many days. We're gonna have to do something drastic to

370
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:20,480
stop it. Air observation doesn't help. Endless miles of grants

371
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:24,880
and sand. The Martians are small, hide in the stuff,

372
00:23:25,079 --> 00:23:27,519
take on its coloring like chameleons. If I weren't for

373
00:23:27,559 --> 00:23:30,319
those sonic beam, those those killing sound ways, they could

374
00:23:30,319 --> 00:23:31,799
probably handle them. I know, I know.

375
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,720
Speaker 9: Can't the Earth Science Council work out offenser.

376
00:23:34,319 --> 00:23:35,079
Speaker 1: As they're trying to.

377
00:23:35,279 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 9: But even if they do, til we get it up here,

378
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,640
we'll all be decimated. I'm thinking of an old weapon,

379
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:42,400
poisoned gas.

380
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:46,160
Speaker 1: That's an outlawed weapon. Isn't the commanding out lord on Earth? Yes?

381
00:23:46,319 --> 00:23:47,680
Speaker 9: They were not fighting on Earth, Captain.

382
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: Uh.

383
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,559
Speaker 9: Sometimes I wish they'd never invented space ships.

384
00:23:53,559 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 1: Oh, let's not worry about it.

385
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,319
Speaker 9: Now you may need some wreck. Report to the hospital barracks.

386
00:23:57,319 --> 00:23:59,319
Take five days there, yes, sir, Oh one more thing.

387
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,960
But the twelve minute the patroller were lost. When was

388
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:03,839
your brother my right?

389
00:24:04,599 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 1: Yes, sir, I'm sorry, Thank you, sir.

390
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,079
Speaker 9: I got to the barracks and get some rest. We

391
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:10,559
got a lot to do in five days.

392
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:11,720
Speaker 1: If I've got on the.

393
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,119
Speaker 9: Commander is sorry, I'll get to the barracks. Don't think

394
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,839
it's so hard to have No, why shouldn't I It

395
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,799
isn't just because Leo was my brother, but because he

396
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:34,559
was someone special up here on this rotten apple called Mars,

397
00:24:34,599 --> 00:24:37,559
where all people out of touch with the decent things.

398
00:24:37,319 --> 00:24:37,920
Speaker 1: Of our world.

399
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,880
Speaker 9: A little kid, every man who lives here, lives up here.

400
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:47,559
He's in his own vacuum. Can't believe what's happened to him,

401
00:24:47,599 --> 00:24:50,559
finding himself in a place where things that are unreal

402
00:24:50,599 --> 00:24:55,960
to the human mind are everyday realities. But I had something,

403
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,119
I had, the one thing that made me a human being.

404
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:00,519
Speaker 7: Up here.

405
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 9: I had I had someone who loved me, whom I loved.

406
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:13,720
And now he's dead, and I've got no one. I

407
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,359
like everyone else up here, now.

408
00:25:16,799 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 8: I've got no one.

409
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:46,039
Speaker 1: Marry, marry marry.

410
00:25:49,319 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 4: Mommy is in here?

411
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:51,839
Speaker 1: Where is she?

412
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,559
Speaker 9: Billy was crying.

413
00:25:54,039 --> 00:25:55,599
Speaker 6: She went next door to the neighbor.

414
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 4: Why'd you make my mommy cry?

415
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 3: You're not nice?

416
00:26:00,039 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 2: But I don't like you.

417
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:07,400
Speaker 1: I'm I'm sorry, sir. I I guess I haven't been

418
00:26:07,519 --> 00:26:16,440
very nice at that. Come here, Billy Son, I've brought

419
00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,640
back a lot of bitterness from the other side of

420
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:22,119
the universe. But a little while ago, I thought back

421
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,440
to what another man told me on Mars, and I

422
00:26:25,519 --> 00:26:30,079
realized something that I didn't understand at the time. I'll

423
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,440
be all right. From now on, Billy, you and I

424
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,440

Speaker 5: See, that'll be swell.

429
00:26:45,279 --> 00:26:47,759
Speaker 1: I like that you didn't care what you did with

430
00:26:47,839 --> 00:26:49,880
your dad, just so you did something with him. I

431
00:26:51,319 --> 00:26:53,440
