Speaker 2: De Genman.

6
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 1: Have you heard from Colonel Bradburyett, No, sir, I've been

7
00:00:46,359 --> 00:00:48,520
trying to for ten minutes. I'll try again, Yes, sir,

8
00:00:51,719 --> 00:00:55,679
B for base to R for rocket. Be for base

9
00:00:55,799 --> 00:00:59,880
to R for rocket, Come in R for rocket. Every

10
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,560
time Bradberry's more than five minutes later, I get the jitters.

11
00:01:03,039 --> 00:01:05,200
He's too important for this project not to know where

12
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:08,760
he is every moment. Essen be for base to R

13
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:13,000
for rocket, Come in R for rocket. High a scanner beam.

14
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,920
He should be on the old pier level out of Detroit.

15
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:15,439
Speaker 2: Yes, it.

16
00:01:23,879 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: Be for base to R for rocket. Come in R

17
00:01:27,799 --> 00:01:30,159
for rocket. You can't afford to have anything happened to him.

18
00:01:30,359 --> 00:01:33,599
The first experiment is being conducted tomorrow morning. Bradbury is

19
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,799
the only man who knows every step of the route

20
00:01:36,159 --> 00:01:40,239
for base to R for rocket. Come in R for rocket.

21
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 2: You're not getting him.

22
00:01:41,159 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: Cut the scanner return to standard beam. Yes, that, come

23
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,760
in R for rocket. He should have left an hour

24
00:01:48,799 --> 00:01:51,599
earlier and he could have taken a scheduled flight, but no,

25
00:01:51,959 --> 00:01:53,519
he has to work up for the last minute and

26
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,359
then fly his own plane to get you in time.

27
00:01:55,519 --> 00:01:59,439
Be for base to R for rocket, R for rocket,

28
00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:03,040
B for base. This is our for rocket. There he

29
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,840
is uh be in contact at fourteen over six, about

30
00:02:05,879 --> 00:02:08,639
eighty miles out of Detroit. Give me that night, Brad,

31
00:02:09,159 --> 00:02:11,439
This is General Hilton. Are you receiving me?

32
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:13,039
Speaker 2: Go ahead? General?

33
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,759
Speaker 1: What happened? We couldn't contact you.

34
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 2: That's the trouble with my stabilizer. Thought I might have

35
00:02:19,039 --> 00:02:19,360
to land.

36
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,599
Speaker 1: But it's okay. Now are you sure?

37
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 2: We can't have any heaven to you? But worries here?

38
00:02:25,319 --> 00:02:27,599
Speaker 1: The first experiment is being conducted tomorrow morning.

39
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 2: Everything is ready for you.

40
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: Good. The entire General staff will be there, maybe the

41
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,280
President himself. Is there anything you want me to have

42
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:36,240
done before you come in?

43
00:02:37,719 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 3: Brad?

44
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,599
Speaker 1: Anything you want done? Hello?

45
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:42,439
Speaker 2: Are for rocket?

46
00:02:43,159 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: I'm not getting a response. B for base to R

47
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:51,319
for rocket. Come in R for rocket. He said he

48
00:02:51,439 --> 00:02:55,080
was receiving clear as a bell. Come in R for rocket.

49
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:57,199
He said the stabilizer had been acting up. I can

50
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,120
mean a lot of trouble At seven hundred miles an hour.

51
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,560
Set automatic distress signal to coming from Colonel Bradbury's plane. Hello,

52
00:03:04,759 --> 00:03:08,840
crash Central. This is B for base automatic distress signal

53
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,319
coming here on channel four to two. Oh Colonel Bradbury

54
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,919
flying a rocket jet X ninety three. Hey, it's stocked

55
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,199
B for base to crash Central automatic signals cease to

56
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,000
register at beam contact sixteen over eight. Carry our emergency

57
00:03:25,039 --> 00:03:30,400
crash procedures repeat. Colonel Bradberry's rocket jet X ninety three

58
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,400
has crashed on beam position sixteen over eight.

59
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 2: Check out.

60
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: I'm glad you were able to get here. General, we're

61
00:03:48,719 --> 00:03:51,120
going to operate very shortly. No, here is a miracle.

62
00:03:51,199 --> 00:03:53,439
He's alive, if we will be more of a miracle.

63
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,520
If he's alive one hour from it, you've got to

64
00:03:55,599 --> 00:03:58,280
save him. He's an important man. Yes, the White House

65
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,599
called in front of the Pentagon. We know Colonel Bradbury

66
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,520
is important, but a shattered skull is very difficult. I

67
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,159
know you'll do all you can. Stay out here in General,

68
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:18,040
we'll keep you informed. Well, it's out of our hands.

69
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,399
I have a report from crashed Central, Sir ma'am. Apparently

70
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,920
Colonel Bradberry used the catapult parachute just before the plane crashed.

71
00:04:25,399 --> 00:04:28,240
Otherwise he would have been killed instantly. When he was

72
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,199
catapulted up, his chute didn't open. He fell into a

73
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:31,920
group of trees.

74
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:32,519
Speaker 2: Poor bread.

75
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,079
Speaker 1: It might have been better if he'd stayed in the ship.

76
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,519
You heard what the doctor said, Yes, sir, the shattered skull,

77
00:04:40,519 --> 00:04:43,759
the one brain. We need to carry out the experiment tomorrow.

78
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 2: And this is what Hanna.

79
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: Ro clams, sponge scapul my fine brownness, clamps the stolic

80
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:06,040
eighty over forty patient thinking, sir, more oxygen, yes, patient responding, sir, good,

81
00:05:07,399 --> 00:05:17,920
it's careful, sponge class careful times out, Lieutenant.

82
00:05:18,439 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 2: Have you a cigarette?

83
00:05:19,519 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 1: Yes, sir, here you are, thanks. Oh this waiting waiting.

84
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,319
It's been more than an hour. Brain surgery is very delicate, sir,

85
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,759
may take another hour or even more. You carry out

86
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,360
my orders to postpone the experiment, yes, sir, until further

87
00:05:38,439 --> 00:05:40,600
of us. If Brad doesn't live, we'll have to start

88
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,680
another man all over. May set the project back a year,

89
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,240
and the year could be dangerous. Oh, you look surprised, lieutenant.

90
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,800
You don't know what this experiment's all about, do you.

91
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 2: Well?

92
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 1: I see the code name for it on the paper, sir,

93
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,439
But it never has a description. After all, it's Mark

94
00:05:54,519 --> 00:05:56,879
pop secret. Maybe it's about time you were told. With

95
00:05:57,199 --> 00:06:00,199
Brad upstairs hanging under life by a thread, I'm going

96
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:01,600
to need a bright young man to give me some

97
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,959
important decisions. You've come through with pretty good colors. He's

98
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,639
last minute, I was thank yourself. Well, we'll talk more

99
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:09,879
about it in a little while. Right now, I'm going

100
00:06:09,959 --> 00:06:12,040
to stretch out and try to rest. I'm about done in.

101
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,079
If I hear anything, I'll awaken you, sir. I don't

102
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,680
expect to sleep, not with the fate of the world

103
00:06:16,759 --> 00:06:19,000
depending on a surgeon's knife. But he shares in the

104
00:06:19,079 --> 00:06:32,079
uperlig the out plot adds aliveness. Shoot, it's careful robe Yes,

105
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:39,040
quite a bone fragment spuns clouds systolic seventy over forty.

106
00:06:39,319 --> 00:06:44,319
Oxygen again, it's pure oxygen. Mouser. Nurse prepare for transfusion

107
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,279
sixty over forty. Patient thinking, sir, that's right nice. I'm

108
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:53,279
going ahead, Doctor Boe, hurry condition, same doctor. He's getting

109
00:06:53,319 --> 00:06:56,279
the transfusion and let me help you. Doctor Buron there

110
00:06:57,399 --> 00:07:04,959
well theytolic eighty over forty. D's responding al right, careful,

111
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,759
so uh fu.

112
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:14,319
Speaker 2: The rest.

113
00:07:14,839 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: How long it's been almost two hours?

114
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:18,959
Speaker 2: Or two hours? Just about now?

115
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,279
Speaker 1: The General's staff would be arriving and Brad would be

116
00:07:21,399 --> 00:07:24,439
checking everything for the experiment. In the morning, there was

117
00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:27,480
an in Have you any guess about that experiment? About

118
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,560
what it is? Well, I my guess is it's it's

119
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,720
about a new kind of aircraft. I know. Why do

120
00:07:32,759 --> 00:07:35,879
you say that for us because it's an Air Force project? Well,

121
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,639
I wouldn't say you were warm, but you aren't cold either.

122
00:07:39,399 --> 00:07:43,079
The experiment, and the reason it's so important, concerns a

123
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,079
rocket to the moon. A rocket to the moon. But

124
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,720
but why, sir, why send one there? Who controls the

125
00:07:50,839 --> 00:07:54,120
Moon controls the world? If we had rockets on the moon,

126
00:07:54,199 --> 00:07:57,279
we could compel peace on a The United Nations would

127
00:07:57,279 --> 00:07:59,639
press a button and wipe any aggression off the face

128
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,639
of the Earth. But that means space travel. You don't

129
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,680
mean that, we'll all, lieutenant, we haven't found the way

130
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,240
to send rocket ships with human beings through space, not

131
00:08:07,399 --> 00:08:10,319
yet anyway. But the rocket we're experimenting with is a

132
00:08:10,399 --> 00:08:13,319
two way rocket. It can land on the Moon and

133
00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:16,480
return from the Moon, all electronically controlled from the Earth.

134
00:08:16,879 --> 00:08:20,000
Fantastic Oh, it's quite feasible, I assure you. But we

135
00:08:20,079 --> 00:08:21,959
have reason to believe that we're not the only nation

136
00:08:22,079 --> 00:08:25,439
thinking of this time. Is of the essence, Colonel Bradbury

137
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,240
knows more about operating these rockets than any man alive,

138
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,839
and just on the verge of the experiment, this has

139
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:41,279
to happen. Sh quiet, General Hilton, is that doctor Rizio

140
00:08:41,279 --> 00:08:43,320
appon take a message down to you from the operating room.

141
00:08:43,799 --> 00:08:47,039
Speaker 2: Right, he's dead, isn't he?

142
00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 1: And no, General, he's still hanging on. Doctor Rizio says

143
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,480
that he now has a thirty percent chance of surviving.

144
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,159
I think uh, part of Colonel Bradbury's color can fragment it.

145
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,960
A head fright will have to be put on because

146
00:09:00,159 --> 00:09:02,200
of the size of the area. A new metal alloy

147
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,759
like will be used to take at least five or

148
00:09:04,759 --> 00:09:08,120
six more hours. Doctor Rigel suggests you go home, General,

149
00:09:08,159 --> 00:09:11,519
where you'll be more comfortable. The hospital will phone you

150
00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:36,159
if anything happens. Uh, he's coming out of it, Danel, Bradbury,

151
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,960
can you hear me? This is Doc thirty Joe Nice.

152
00:09:40,159 --> 00:09:46,320
Open the blinds a little O good? How easy is

153
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:51,240
back to the pillar. I'll hold him up. I'm fine,

154
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,960
Thank you for ten days since the operation and he's

155
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,200
just now coming out of it. He's a strong man.

156
00:09:59,039 --> 00:10:04,039
Almost any other perh would have died. General Bradbury, m

157
00:10:04,879 --> 00:10:10,559
Colonel Bradbury, can you hear me? Be the base rocket

158
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:16,279
art for rocket. He's beginning to talk. Nurse, have doctor

159
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:20,639
Keys come in at once. They buy some parf uh

160
00:10:20,759 --> 00:10:25,799
er uh rocket Hilton, just General Hilton, well something, It

161
00:10:25,879 --> 00:10:27,879
was all right, Colonel'll take it easily.

162
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:29,759
Speaker 3: Huh you call for me.

163
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: Then they said he was coming out of it. He

164
00:10:31,519 --> 00:10:35,519
was talking erratically, typical star or something rocket be base

165
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,720
and that sort of thing where it's a technical jock

166
00:10:37,799 --> 00:10:44,600
on air Force. They know us Martians Mars h Marsham.

167
00:10:44,799 --> 00:10:47,559
They use all sorts of code names. Mars is probably

168
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,360
one of them. I think at about forty eight hours

169
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,320
you have to be out of shot completely. We can

170
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,679
call General Hilton, tell him to come over day after tomorrow.

171
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,879
H I take it easy, colonel. Six months and you

172
00:11:00,039 --> 00:11:03,120
oh to being pretty good shaved nurse, keep him comfortable.

173
00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:09,080
Back the keys and I will leave now. Rock utilizer

174
00:11:09,159 --> 00:11:16,080
off wrong, something wrong? M must call General called General

175
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:33,960
Health Mars my martians bush marry that victiny please memorandum

176
00:11:34,039 --> 00:11:38,559
to General Staff one. The new experiment is tentatively planned

177
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,559
for April third, two thousand plus six.

178
00:11:41,279 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 2: Two.

179
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 1: All security mashoes have been taken three. Although severely handicapped

180
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,399
by Colonel Bradbury's absence, newly trained specialists will endeavor to

181
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:57,000
fill the gaps. Anything more, General, No, no, Lieutenant, sorry

182
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,960
I should say no. Captain you like that extra certainly

183
00:12:01,639 --> 00:12:04,639
you've learned it, Bob, You've been a great help to me. Okay.

184
00:12:04,799 --> 00:12:07,000
Note the memo is top secret and send it fact

185
00:12:07,039 --> 00:12:09,879
similarly to the pentagram. Oh, I'll take it. Never men.

186
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:16,799
Do you know Hughton? Who the President? Oh, here's mister President,

187
00:12:17,519 --> 00:12:20,679
of course her. Well, I've just prepared a memorandum. But

188
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,960
that's only two weeks, mister President. We assumed about sixty days.

189
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,039
Oh yes, sir, the workday and night to do it. Yeah,

190
00:12:28,039 --> 00:12:31,559
thank you, mister President. Captain changed the date in the

191
00:12:31,639 --> 00:12:34,320
first paragraph of the memo. The new experiment is to

192
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,240
take place in two weeks. General, that's almost impossible. I

193
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,600
know it, and you know it. But there's one man

194
00:12:39,639 --> 00:12:41,600
who doesn't know it, and he says it's got to

195
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,440
be done. I'm not disposed to argue with the President

196
00:12:45,519 --> 00:12:56,279
of the United States. I'd like to double check some

197
00:12:56,399 --> 00:12:58,840
of my notes on Colonel Bradbury with you, of course,

198
00:12:58,879 --> 00:13:01,600
doctor to noon, the General is coming to see him.

199
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,799
But Colonel Bradbury needs month convalesence, and he's not too lucid.

200
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,559
Now what's the point. He's not too lucid, but weak

201
00:13:09,759 --> 00:13:12,440
as he is, he talks normally for a while makes

202
00:13:12,519 --> 00:13:18,279
sense and when that strange reaction sets in. I have

203
00:13:18,399 --> 00:13:21,840
observed it myself three times. Well, head injury cases are

204
00:13:21,919 --> 00:13:23,480
quite unprediminable.

205
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 3: Perhaps, but according to my notes.

206
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,840
Speaker 1: Colonel Bradbury's strange reaction has taking place always either at

207
00:13:28,919 --> 00:13:33,360
ten AM or five PM. Of the three instances I've observed,

208
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:35,200
two have been at ten, one at five.

209
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 2: Well, that is on you.

210
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,399
Speaker 1: And in each instance, well, I can see now in

211
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,639
my mind's eyes, sitting or lying in bed, talking quite sensibly,

212
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:45,120
although in.

213
00:13:45,159 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 2: A weak, weak voice.

214
00:13:46,159 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 1: Suddenly he becomes tense. He grimaces as if his head

215
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,720
were in pain, even clutches the bedclothes with tight fists.

216
00:13:53,279 --> 00:13:55,120
He appears to be rigid. Mm.

217
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:56,279
Speaker 2: Then after a.

218
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,919
Speaker 1: Few minutes, invariably comes a flood of disjoint to disconnect

219
00:13:59,919 --> 00:14:04,200
the sentences about messages emergency crisis, fate of the world

220
00:14:04,879 --> 00:14:08,919
and mars Our General Hilton is going to visit the

221
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,159
colonel this afternoon at about five o'clock. And you expect

222
00:14:12,159 --> 00:14:15,840
the colonel to have another stranger. I don't know. Surely,

223
00:14:15,919 --> 00:14:17,799
General he will realize that a man who's had severe

224
00:14:17,879 --> 00:14:20,919
surgery ki. I can't tell what the General will realize,

225
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,879
but my fear is that he may see that the

226
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,240
klonel is not improving as well as he might and

227
00:14:26,399 --> 00:14:28,320
he may call in other doctors.

228
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,159
Speaker 3: But we're doing everything humanly possible.

229
00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:34,279
Speaker 1: That is the irony of the situation. I could have

230
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:38,799
killed the colonel in surgery. It would have been very easy.

231
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:43,200
But where important government officials are concerned, I get worried.

232
00:14:43,919 --> 00:14:48,360
If we ever were investigated carefully, they might find out

233
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,360
who you and I really are, and that would be dangerous,

234
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:53,879
very dangerous.

235
00:14:54,120 --> 00:15:11,399
Speaker 2: Indeed, in here I thank your nurse.

236
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:22,279
Speaker 1: Hello bradon uh, I don't understand. You wanted to see me,

237
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:27,919
and I came as soon as I could, and ship said, ah, sure, Brad,

238
00:15:28,159 --> 00:15:33,840
don't worry about me. Brad, we're rescheduling the experiment. You

239
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,799
feel up to answering a few questions about the experiment

240
00:15:37,919 --> 00:15:40,360
something to tell you. Sure, Brad, Sure, I know there's

241
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,039
a lot you wanted to tell me, but well you

242
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,000
were still a sick guy. So suppose I just ask

243
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,159
you a few questions and you answer them yes or no.

244
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 2: That'll save your energy.

245
00:15:48,759 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 3: Time.

246
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:50,679
Speaker 2: What time is it?

247
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: Why it's a few seconds before five o'clock? Wire coming?

248
00:15:54,519 --> 00:15:59,360
The message coming, message coming? What message trying to tell you?

249
00:16:00,919 --> 00:16:07,480
Couldn't tell anyone else. Mars Russians, Mars Martians. Kind of

250
00:16:07,519 --> 00:16:10,320
tell me what the h bread? Go a head and

251
00:16:10,399 --> 00:16:16,279
see what's the metal bread? Nurse, doctor, something's happening to

252
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:30,159
Colonel Bradbury. Hurry, hurry, unel is doctor Rigio? Can you

253
00:16:30,279 --> 00:16:30,600
hear me?

254
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 3: Bars?

255
00:16:32,679 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: Bars the general Hilpromi is here too, you remember, and

256
00:16:38,679 --> 00:16:41,519
tire in general, these strange things happened to the human mind.

257
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,799
Have his colors a metal plate? Uh?

258
00:16:44,039 --> 00:16:46,559
Speaker 2: Of rs calling more.

259
00:16:48,919 --> 00:16:50,399
Speaker 3: Message is like a shit.

260
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: Look at him.

261
00:16:55,799 --> 00:16:56,799
Speaker 2: You are receiving.

262
00:17:01,159 --> 00:17:02,559
Speaker 3: I'm a brad the colonel.

263
00:17:03,279 --> 00:17:08,079
Speaker 1: A nurse will try a hyper that one player experiment

264
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:09,359
will take place.

265
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 3: In Well, thank you, nurse, Now I'm in jet.

266
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 1: Uh. You should relax in a moment, very sort experiment.

267
00:17:30,839 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 2: The experiment must stay.

268
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: There hyper has released his tent from your sleep?

269
00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:41,839
Speaker 2: Now the all right?

270
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:42,559
Speaker 1: When he awakens?

271
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:43,799
Speaker 2: If so, what happened to him?

272
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: Doctor? I'm not certain, General, but in a few days

273
00:17:47,599 --> 00:17:49,960
we may be able to tell more. I know you're

274
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,920
doing everything possible, doctor, and we're grateful for your saving

275
00:17:53,039 --> 00:17:56,079
Brad's life. But mightn't it be wise to call in

276
00:17:56,240 --> 00:18:00,319
some specialists, some other doctors for consultation. There's so much

277
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,200
information and advice we need from Colonel Bradbury call in

278
00:18:03,799 --> 00:18:08,000
other doctors. Well, General, I don't know that that's necessary.

279
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,480
So strange watching him, almost as if he were listening

280
00:18:11,559 --> 00:18:14,880
to something. You know, now that I think of it,

281
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,680
he did say something about a message. Do you think

282
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,839
there's any connection? I hardly think so, General, After all,

283
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,119
we didn't hear anything. No, no, I'm afraid it was

284
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:37,039
just the erratic talk of a sick and injured brain. General,

285
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,640
you really went through an experience watching the colonel like that.

286
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:40,279
Speaker 3: Captain.

287
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 2: He was almost in a fit, had some.

288
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 1: Crazy idea he was getting messages, message look, hallucinations.

289
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 3: He was off his rocker for a while.

290
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: I'm afraid I was a little brusque with doctor Riggio.

291
00:18:50,599 --> 00:18:53,319
He's a fine man, but I'd feel better if some

292
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,920
other medicals looked at Brad too. Arrange for some specialists

293
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,039
from Army medical to examine him. Will you, Captain es,

294
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,000
I'll do it promptly. Wanting more on the experiment.

295
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:02,519
Speaker 2: File, you'll find it.

296
00:19:04,759 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 1: General Hilton's office at one moment, please for you, sir,

297
00:19:08,759 --> 00:19:10,640
Pentagon Intelligence Section Intelligence.

298
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 2: Well he don't.

299
00:19:12,759 --> 00:19:20,160
Speaker 1: General Hilton, yes, yes, but are you certain? But of

300
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,279
the President and the Chief of Staff being informed? Good

301
00:19:23,839 --> 00:19:26,400
it's outter were in fifteen minutes right, order.

302
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 2: My car, Captain.

303
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,400
Speaker 1: Things that happen, yes, sir, General Hilton's car stand by

304
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,519
at West Entrance. What things? Sir? Intelligence reports that the

305
00:19:33,559 --> 00:19:36,440
Eastern Alliance is definitely planning a moon rocket for blest

306
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,640
Off in six days. You know what that means if

307
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,119
they get there before the United Nations six days, and

308
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,359
we will be ready for fourteen days. We really wanted

309
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:44,880
three months.

310
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:45,319
Speaker 2: That's right.

311
00:19:45,519 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 1: But how somehow they must have found out about our

312
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,920
experiment and have agents that feed for some of our

313
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,160
vital data. That's what the emergency meeting is about. Or

314
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,559
your cars? Really, General, good luck, We're going to need

315
00:19:55,640 --> 00:20:08,599
a captain. We're going to need it. Oh ah, cheese

316
00:20:09,559 --> 00:20:14,480
doctor Cheese, have you heard what is it? Some other

317
00:20:14,759 --> 00:20:19,240
doctors are examining Colonel Bradbury. Yes, I just met them.

318
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,440
What I of course I gave them permission. I had

319
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:27,079
no choice. General Hilton requested it yesterday? Or are they?

320
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:32,839
That's just it? Army, medical Army. How you can be

321
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,839
so cold and calculating and surgery and so nervous? Now

322
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,799
I cannot understand your record here is flawless. Your operation

323
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,279
on Bradbury superb. No suspicion will attach to you or

324
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,519
to me. If we conduct ourselves in a normal professional manner.

325
00:20:46,799 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 3: What is the race?

326
00:20:47,519 --> 00:20:52,519
Speaker 1: But they are the Army now that means an intelligence section.

327
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,839
They have routines about these things. We have no choice

328
00:20:56,839 --> 00:20:58,640
but to keep up up here. And I know, I know.

329
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:03,160
But if they ever find out that we are the

330
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:07,759
agents of the Eastern Alliance, that we have masterminded the

331
00:21:07,839 --> 00:21:13,039
theft of certain Moon rocket data, they will be ruthless,

332
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:32,680
Doctor Cheese, wouseless. General Holton's office. I'm sorry the General

333
00:21:32,759 --> 00:21:37,000
isn't here. This is his aid. No, sir, I don't

334
00:21:37,039 --> 00:21:40,359
know when you'll return. I suggest you placed the information

335
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,839
on our private factsimile line in code. Our extension is

336
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,720
eighty three. I'll then get the papers to the General

337
00:21:46,759 --> 00:21:49,960
when he arrives. Yes, sir, I'll turn the fac simile

338
00:21:50,079 --> 00:21:52,359
line on now, sir, we can receive it at once.

339
00:21:53,400 --> 00:22:06,319
Thank you, uh s coming in now. The report regarding

340
00:22:06,519 --> 00:22:15,559
Colonel Bradbury Item one good Heavens doctor Regio Item two

341
00:22:16,839 --> 00:22:22,559
the metal plate surgically applied to Colonel Bradbury's skull. The

342
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:28,680
metal skull plate Martian voices. So that's what the colonel's

343
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:36,640
hallucinations are. It's fantastic. There. Message is ended smoked quickly,

344
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:45,440
very quickly, Military police. Hello, General Hilton's office at Central Hospital.

345
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,359
There are two staff doctors, Doctor Rejoe and doctor Keys right.

346
00:22:49,559 --> 00:22:54,839
Place them under arrest at once. Well, message Edge quarters please,

347
00:22:55,799 --> 00:22:58,640
this is General Hilton's aid. When the General returns, tell

348
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,319
him I'll be at Central Hospital talking to Colonel Bradberry.

349
00:23:19,279 --> 00:23:22,799
But Colonel, I'm I'm the General's aide. You can describe

350
00:23:22,799 --> 00:23:28,200
the voices to me. Now what happened? My My whole

351
00:23:28,559 --> 00:23:34,279
head vibrates very painful. Then I hear voices, what diould

352
00:23:34,279 --> 00:23:38,640
I say that talking to mars martians.

353
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 2: Martians?

354
00:23:42,279 --> 00:23:45,319
Speaker 1: Well, apparently the metal plate on your head somehow picks

355
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:49,079
up certain high frequency radio waves. At least that's the

356
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:53,000
theory of the Army medical acceptance. The Martians. They wanna

357
00:23:53,079 --> 00:23:58,519
stop the moon rocket enemies from another word, No, colonel,

358
00:23:58,599 --> 00:24:02,359
you can't really believe that who you must have misunderstood.

359
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,119
The real enemies are the Eastern Relians, but their agents

360
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,119
have been caught. Their moon project won't take place for

361
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,680
a long time as a result. You just take it easy, sir.

362
00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:15,319
The Army is going to track down that wavelength that

363
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,599
bothers your head. Then you'll recuperate peaceful, the captain, it's true. Like,

364
00:24:19,839 --> 00:24:22,359
excuse me, sir, it's almost five o'clock. I've I've got

365
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:40,759
to be going, sir. Just take it easy, please, what

366
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:55,200
a yes? Eight three three eight nine one on nine

367
00:24:56,319 --> 00:25:01,440
cronos cronos is six four three. Your code is correct.

368
00:25:02,039 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 2: Go ahead.

369
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,680
Speaker 1: Do not send the message to Mars on the regular

370
00:25:05,759 --> 00:25:10,519
wavelength at five o'clock hereafter, use the alternate wavelength. I

371
00:25:10,599 --> 00:25:13,759
will submit a report explaining how our communications were discovered.

372
00:25:14,559 --> 00:25:18,000
But you can report this the Eastern Alliance agents have

373
00:25:18,039 --> 00:25:21,400
been captured by the Americans. This reduces the chances of

374
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,720
the Earth sending a moon rocket from two to only one.

375
00:25:26,039 --> 00:25:28,880
I will see to it that that one does not succeed.

376
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,119
Are you positive you can execute this plan without question?

377
00:25:33,599 --> 00:25:33,839
Speaker 2: Go on?

378
00:25:34,799 --> 00:25:38,079
Speaker 1: You may report to my superiors on Mars that their

379
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:42,559
observation base on the Moon is safe from discovery. Mars

380
00:25:42,599 --> 00:25:46,400
will continue to be the only planet controlling outer space.

381
00:25:47,599 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 2: That is all it shall be.

382
00:25:49,119 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 1: Reported, Kevin, I just read that facsimile message in my office.

383
00:26:02,079 --> 00:26:03,839
Came as quickly as I could. Now what I know

384
00:26:04,039 --> 00:26:07,720
is happening, and nothing on Earth is happening in general.

385
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:08,839
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?

386
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: I mean, everything's all right now, sir, isn't it. The

387
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,960
Eastern Alliance has been taken care of, and there's reason

388
00:26:15,039 --> 00:26:18,799
to believe Colonel Bradbury's weird hallucinations won't recur anymore. Those

389
00:26:18,839 --> 00:26:21,279
are the two best pieces of news I've heard all day.

390
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:22,319
Speaker 2: Captain.

391
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 3: I don't know what I'd do without you, Thank you, sir.

392
00:26:26,599 --> 00:26:28,720
Speaker 1: I just try to do the best I can for

393
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:48,000
my country. Next week another exciting adventure from the world,

394
00:26:48,039 --> 00:26:51,480
and tomorrow from the years beyond two thousand ad be

395
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,440
sure to listen. Two thousand pluses. But it was by

Drier and when Nelson Productions incorporated in today's cast Arnold
