OK.

[GRINDING]

GIVE IT
A LITTLE GAS--
A LITTLE GAS...

HEY...



YOU GOT IT
GOING GOOD.

JUST DON'T HIT

WE DON'T HAVE
THAT MANY TO SPARE.

PUT THE CLUTCH IN.

GO AHEAD.

HEY, POP,
LOOK AT THIS.

YEAH.

A THOUSAND LEGGER.

YEAH, HE'S A REAL
MONSTER, ALL RIGHT.

LOOK AT THE WAY
ITS LEGS WIGGLE.

[HELICOPTER]

MM...

MAYBE I'LL

[WHINING]

[BARKING]

[WHINING]

CHRIS?

SON, WAKE UP.

[BARKING]

[HONKING HORN]

[HONKING]

[HONKING]

GOOD MORNIN', DAN.
SOMETHING WRONG?

WOULD YOU CALL
DOC CARDWELL,

TELL HIM TO GET OVER
TO THE HOSPITAL
SOON AS HE CAN?

THE BOY'S GOT
SOME KIND OF
CONVULSIONS.

HE FEELS LIKE
HE'S BURNING UP.

I--I DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT IS.

HE WAS FINE
YESTERDAY.

WE CAMPED OUT
LAST NIGHT
NEAR THE CREEK,

AND THIS MORNING
HE'S SICK.

WOULD YOU CALL
SPIKE BOYNTON, TOO,

AND TELL HIM THERE'S
A COUPLE OF MY SHEEP

I WANT HIM
TO GO OVER
THERE AND LOOK AT.

THEY'RE STRETCHED OUT,
THEIR LEGS STRAIGHT OUT,

AND SOME OF 'EM
ARE TWITCHIN',

AND THERE'S BLOOD
RUNNING OUT OF
THEIR NOSTRILS.

TELL HIM
IT'S ABOUT HALF WAY

YOU WANT SARAH
TO COME WITH YOU?

NO. WE'LL BE FINE.

OH--CAN EMILY
STAY WITH YOU?

OH, SURE.

EMILY, STAY HERE.

[WOOF]

[HORN HONKING]

[HONKING]

[HONKING]

Doctor: ALL RIGHT,
JOYCE, GET HIM READY.
I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

HOW LONG HAS HE
BEEN LIKE THIS?

WELL, I DON'T
KNOW FOR SURE--

EXCUSE ME, DOCTOR.
IS THIS THE PATIENT?

NO. THIS IS
THE FATHER.

THIS IS MR. LOGAN.
DR. HOLLIFORD.

HOW DO YOU DO, SIR.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS,
DOCTOR?

THERE'S FEVER,
NASAL HEMORRHAGE,

HYPERTONIA OF THE BICEPS
AND UPPER LEG
AND CONVULSIONS.

HAS HE BEEN VOMITING?

NO, SIR.
I DON'T THINK SO.

HAS THERE BEEN ANY
INVOLUNTARY URINATION?

UM...

DID HE WET HIMSELF?

YES. I THINK SO.

WAS HE OUTSIDE
ANYTIME LAST NIGHT?

WE WAS OUT
THE WHOLE NIGHT.
WE CAMPED OUT.

IS THAT HIM?

I'M GONNA NEED
A GLUCOSE I.V., PLEASE.

EXCUSE ME.

MR. LOGAN?

I'M AFRAID
I'M GOING TO HAVE TO

ADMIT YOUR SON
INTO THE HOSPITAL.

RELAX.

UH, WHAT IS IT?
IS HE ALL RIGHT?

IT'S NOTHING
TO WORRY ABOUT.

I'D LIKE TO ASK YOU
A FEW QUESTIONS
IF I MAY.

DOES YOUR SON
HAVE A HISTORY
OF, UH, ASTHMA?

NO, SIR.

HE EVER HAVE
RHEUMATIC FEVER?

NO.

ANY BLOOD DISORDER?

WELL, HE'S NEVER BEEN
SICK AT ALL EXCEPT WHEN
HE HAD HIS TONSILS OUT.

WHEN DID YOU FIRST
NOTICE THE SYMPTOMS?

WELL, HE WAS
SICK LIKE THAT

THIS MORNING
WHEN I GOT UP,
JUST LIKE HE IS NOW.

WHAT TIME WAS THAT?

AROUND 6:00.

WHEN YOU FIRST
FOUND HIM,

DID HE SAY ANYTHING
TO YOU AT ALL?

NO, SIR.

DID HE RETAIN
VISUAL MOTOR CONTROL?

I'M NOT SURE I KNOW
WHAT YOU MEAN.

I'M SORRY.

DID HE--HIS EYES,
DID THEY LOOK WANDERING,

DID THEY LOOK GLAZED,
FAR AWAY?

I GUESS THEY DID--

EXCUSE ME,
DR. HOLLIFORD.

DO YOU WANT THIS
I.V. RIGHT AWAY?

YES, SIR.

AND WOULD YOU PUT HIM
IN ISOLATION, PLEASE?

WHEN YOU MENTIONED
THAT HE WAS
CAMPING LAST NIGHT.

WERE YOU WITH HIM?

WELL, I WAS
IN THE TENT.

THE BOY WANTED
TO SLEEP OUTSIDE.

WHERE WERE YOU CAMPED?

MY RANCH,
ABOUT 20 MILES
NORTH OF HERE,

BY THE BASIN.

I SEE.

THAT'S NEAR
MEDICINE CREEK,
ISN'T IT?

YEAH, ABOUT
HALF A MILE
FROM THERE.

OK.

WOULD YOU
STEP OVER HERE
FOR A SECOND, PLEASE?

TAKE YOUR JACKET OFF
AND ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVE.

I WANT TO TAKE
YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE.

I FEEL ALL RIGHT.

OH, IT'S NOTHING
TO WORRY ABOUT.

JUST A PRECAUTIONARY
MEASURE.

HI, DAN.

GOT HERE
SOON AS I COULD.

ROY, HOW ARE YA?

I DON'T BELIEVE
WE'VE MET.

I'M ROY CARDWELL,
MR. LOGAN'S PHYSICIAN.

HOW DO YOU DO, SIR.
I'M DR. HOLLIFORD.

YOU LOOKED AT CHRIS?

THAT'S MR. LOGAN'S SON?

THAT'S RIGHT.

YES, I DID.

UH, WE JUST PUT HIM
IN ISOLATION.

UH, DR. THOMPSON'S
WITH HIM NOW.

JOYCE...

WOULD YOU FINISH
TAKING MR. LOGAN'S
BLOOD PRESSURE, PLEASE?

TAKE TWO BLOOD SAMPLES.

SEND ONE TO PATHOLOGY
AND HOLD THE OTHER ONE
FOR ME.

ARE YOU FROM RAWLINS,
MR. LOGAN?

NO, MA'AM. LAMONT.

WELL, NOW,
DON'T YOU WORRY
ABOUT YOUR SON.

HE'LL BE JUST FINE.

DR. THOMPSON WILL
TAKE REAL GOOD
CARE OF HIM.

NOW, THIS WON'T
HURT AT ALL.

DAN, UH...

DR. HOLLIFORD'S
JUST BEEN TELLING ME

ABOUT WHAT HE FOUND
WHEN HE EXAMINED CHRIS.

NOW...NOW, WE DON'T
KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT IT IS,

BUT, UH, DR. HOLLIFORD'S
A SPECIALIST.

I'M GOING TO LET HIM
SUPERVISE CHRIS' CARE.

HE KNOWS A LOT MORE
ABOUT IT THAN I DO.

YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS SAY

A MAN ISN'T A GOOD DOCTOR
UNLESS HE KNOWS WHEN
TO CALL IN HELP.

WILL HE BE
ALL RIGHT?

OH, SURE.
HE'LL BE FINE.

IT'S JUST A QUESTION
OF FINDING OUT
WHAT IT IS

AND TAKING
THE RIGHT STEPS.

AND, UM...

WE'RE GONNA
HAVE TO RUN A FEW
TESTS ON YOU, TOO.

NOW, DR. HOLLIFORD
WANTS YOU TO CHECK
INTO THE HOSPITAL

JUST FOR A FEW DAYS,

JUST IN CASE YOU GOT
SOME OF THE SAME THING.

YOU REALLY
THINK I SHOULD?

YEAH, I THINK SO.

GIVE YOU A CHANCE
TO BE NEAR CHRIS,

AND THIS WAY, WE'D
TAKE A LOOK AT YOU.

WELL, ALL RIGHT,
I'LL DO IT IF YOU THINK
IT'S THE BEST THING.

GOOD. NOW,
LET'S GO ON DOWN AND
GET YOU CHECKED IN.

COLONEL FRANKLIN,
I'M MAJOR REINTZ.

COLONEL NICKERSON
SENT ME TO SHOW YOU
YOUR QUARTERS, SIR.

MAJOR.

UH, COLONEL NICKERSON
HAS A BRIEFING PLAN
FOR YOU, SIR,

AS SOON
AS YOU'RE READY.

REINTZ, KAGLE.

HOW ARE YOU?

THAT'LL BE ALL,
SERGEANT.

YES, SIR.

DR. SPENCER,
GOOD TO SEE YOU.

UH, GENTLEMEN,
I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET

COLONEL WILLIAM FRANKLIN
FROM WASHINGTON,

MAJOR KAGLE
IS MEDICAL OFFICER,

DR. WALTER STIENROD
FROM CHIVINGTON LABORATORIES,

DR. TOM JANEWAY,
ALSO FROM CHIVINGTON,

MAJOR REINTZ,
MY ASSISTANT,

AND DR. SPENCER FROM
THE PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE.

DR. SPENCER HAS WORKED
WITH US BEFORE,

SO HE HAS ALL
THE NECESSARY CLEARANCE,

AND I'VE ASKED HIM
TO JOIN US TODAY

BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO BE
WORKING VERY CLOSELY

WITH THE PUBLIC HEALTH
SERVICE FROM HERE ON.

NOW, GENTLEMEN,
I'D LIKE TO STRESS

THAT THIS MEETING IS
SUBJECT TO STRICT SECURITY.

IT SHOULDN'T BE DISCUSSED
WITH ANYONE NOT HERE
IN THIS ROOM.

AS YOU ALL KNOW, THERE'S
BEEN AN ACCIDENT ON THE POST

WHICH MAY WELL LEAD
TO SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES.

MAJOR REINTZ HAS BEEN
MONITORING THE SITUATION,

SO I'LL LET HIM GIVE YOU
THE DETAILS. JACK?

GENTLEMEN, YESTERDAY
AT 17:30 HOURS--
EXCUSE ME--

OUR CHEMICAL EVALUATION
UNIT WAS CONDUCTING
A TEST ON MX-3.

IT'S A NEW CHEMICAL AGENT
WE RECEIVED FROM CHIVINGTON
FOR PRELIMINARY TESTING.

THE TEST INVOLVED
AEROSOL DISTRIBUTION
FROM AN AIRBORNE SPRAYER.

MORNIN', SPIKE.

MORNIN'.

COME ON IN.

SARAH'S GOT SOME COFFEE.

I CAN'T DO IT.
THANKS JUST THE SAME.

I GOT SOME CALLS TO MAKE
OVER IN BEAR OIL.

I JUST STOPPED BY TO
TELL YA I'VE BEEN OVER
AT DAN LOGAN'S PLACE,

AND THINGS LOOK
PRETTY BAD OVER THERE.

I'D SAY HE'S GOT MORE
THAN 200 SHEEP DEAD...

AND A LOT MORE THAN THAT
THAT ARE SICK,

SO YOU BETTER KEEP
YOUR STOCK AS FAR AWAY
FROM THERE AS YOU CAN.

SURE. WHAT DO YOU
THINK IT IS,

BLUE TONGUE OR
SOMETHING LIKE THAT?

I DON'T THINK SO.

LOOKS MIGHTY
PECULIAR.

I'M GONNA
STOP BACK LATER AND
TAKE ANOTHER LOOK.

AS SOON AS
DAN GETS BACK,

HAVE HIM
GIVE ME A CALL.

I SURE WILL.

AND YOU
KEEP AN EYE ON
YOUR OWN STOCK.

YOU SEE ANYTHING
THAT LOOKS FUNNY,

YOU GIVE ME
A CALL RIGHT AWAY.

I WILL,

AND THANKS
FOR COMING BY.

NOT AT ALL.

AND AT THAT POINT,
AS A MATTER OF
STANDARD PROCEDURE,

THE PLANE WAS CALLED BACK
AND INSPECTED.

THE GROUND CREW DISCOVERED
THAT THE VALVE HAD LOCKED
IN THE OPEN POSITION.

WE CALCULATE THAT
AT THAT POINT WHERE
THE VALVE FAILED TO CLOSE,

THE TANK WAS ABOUT 1/3 FULL.

NOW, WITH THE SPRAY SETTING
WE WERE USING,

THE, UH...

THE PLANE WOULD HAVE
TRAVELED ABOUT 5 MILES

BEFORE THE TANK
WOULD HAVE EMPTIED,

BRINGING IT TO ABOUT, UH...
HERE.

MAJOR...

YES, SIR.

NOW, ISN'T THE PLANE
EQUIPPED WITH
AN INDICATOR

THAT WOULD TELL
THE PILOT WHETHER
THE VALVE HAD CLOSED?

IT SEEMS LIKE
AN ELEMENTARY PRECAUTION.

WELL, SIR, ACTUALLY, UH,

MOST OF OUR PLANES
DO HAVE THAT FEATURE,

BUT WE'RE STILL FLYING
SOME THAT DON'T.

AND THIS ONE DIDN'T.

THAT'S CORRECT, SIR.

SO RETURNING
TO WHAT I WAS SAYING,

WE'RE, UH, ONLY INTERESTED
IN THE FLIGHT PATH

FROM THE END
OF THIS TEST AREA

OUT TO, UH,
OUT TO HERE,

BECAUSE THE TANK WOULD HAVE
BEEN EMPTY PAST THIS POINT.

NOW, AT THE TIME
OF THE TEST,

THE PREVAILING WINDS
WERE FROM THE SOUTHEAST

BLOWING THE AGENT
IN THIS DIRECTION,

SO THE FIRST THING WE DID,
WE HAD THE STATE POLICE

CLOSE OFF A 25-MILE SECTION
OF THIS ROUTE 287
FROM HERE TO HERE,

THEN WE SENT OUT HELICOPTERS
AND GROUND OBSERVERS

TO MEASURE THE SPREAD
OF THE GAS.

WE FOUND BY DOING THIS
THAT THE HEAVIEST
CONCENTRATION

OUTSIDE OF THE FORT ITSELF

IS JUST ACROSS
THIS ROUTE 287,

RIGHT HERE...

NEAR MEDICINE CREEK.

NOW, FORTUNATELY,
THE WINDS WERE VERY LIGHT,

AND BY 0600 HOURS
THIS MORNING,

ALL OF OUR READINGS
WERE NEAR ZERO.

OH, YES--OF COURSE WE
ORDERED ALL PERSONNEL

CLEARED FROM
THE CONTAMINATED AREAS
OF THE FORT ITSELF,

SO WE HAD NO IMMEDIATE
HEALTH HAZARD THERE.

NOW, WE DO HAVE TWO
SUSPECTED CASES OF EXPOSURE,

BUT THE MAXIMUM READING
OVER THAT AREA

WAS 20 MICROGRAMS
PER CUBIC METER.

THIS IS ONLY ABOUT HALF
THE LETHAL CONCENTRATION.

JUST A MINUTE,
MAJOR.

IF YOU'RE SUGGESTING
THAT THOSE PEOPLE
DOWN THERE ARE SAFE,

YOU'RE BEING
VERY MISLEADING.

EVEN A VERY SMALL
CONCENTRATION OF
MX-3 WILL KILL YOU

IF YOU BREATHE IT
LONG ENOUGH.

THERE'S NO SUCH
THING AS A SAFE
CONCENTRATION.

WELL, I'M VERY
SORRY IF I WAS BEING
A LITTLE BIT VAGUE.

WHAT I MEANT WAS THAT
WE MEASURED 20 MICROGRAMS
PER CUBIC METER.

WE'VE ESTABLISHED
35 AS THE EFFECTIVE
MILITARY CONCENTRATION.

YES, BUT THAT DOESN'T
MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE.

WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT
A MILITARY SITUATION HERE.

WE'RE CONCERNED
ABOUT POSSIBLE
CIVILIAN CASUALTIES.

JUST A COUPLE OF HOURS
OF EXPOSURE TO THAT
CONCENTRATION

WOULD KILL OVER 50%
OF THE EXPOSED POPULATION.

I THINK WE HAVE A VERY
DANGEROUS SITUATION HERE,

AND I DON'T SEE ANY POINT
IN TRYING TO PAPER OVER IT.

NOW, TOM,
NOBODY'S PROPOSING

THAT WE DON'T HAVE
A DANGEROUS SITUATION.

THAT'S WHY
WE'RE ALL HERE.

[BANJO PLAYS ON RADIO]

I'M SORRY, SIR.
YOU'LL HAVE TO STOP
RIGHT HERE.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

THIS RANCH
HAS BEEN QUARANTINED

ON THE INSTRUCTIONS
OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH
SERVICE.

WHY?

I CAN'T
TELL YOU ANYTHING.

NOW, AS TO POINT 3...

THERE ARE ONLY
4 MAJOR HOSPITALS--
OR ANY KIND OF HOSPITALS--

WITHIN 100 MILES
OF THE AFFECTED AREA.

WE'VE ALREADY SENT OUT
OUR OWN MEDICAL PERSONNEL
TO COVER THESE.

AS MAJOR REINTZ
HAS MENTIONED,

MAJOR HOLLIFORD
OF CARBON COUNTY

HAS ALREADY REPORTED
TWO CASES OF POSSIBLE
EXPOSURE.

NOW, LUCKILY FOR US,

MAJOR HOLLIFORD HAS DONE
SOME WORK FOR CARBON COUNTY
IN THE PAST

AND HAS BEEN ABLE TO
TAKE OVER THE CASES THERE.

AS A MATTER OF FACT, UH,
DR. JANEWAY HAS JUST BEEN
IN TOUCH WITH HIM.

TOM, WHY DON'T YOU
FILL US IN ON THAT, HUH?

RIGHT. FROM WHAT
MAJOR HOLLIFORD
TOLD ME,

WE'VE DEFINITELY
GOT TWO CASES
OF EXPOSURE.

IT'S A RANCHER
NAMED DANIEL LOGAN

AND HIS
12-YEAR-OLD SON.

IT SEEMS THEY WERE
CAMPED OUT ALL NIGHT
NEAR MEDICINE CREEK,

SO WE CAN BE SURE
THEY WERE HEAVILY
EXPOSED.

THE BOY'S SYMPTOMS
ARE ABOUT THE SAME

AS THE ONES
WE'VE OBSERVED

IN OUR LABORATORY
ANIMALS--

CONVULSIONS,
BLEEDING,
AND SO ON.

THE FATHER'S
SYMPTOMS ARE
VERY MILD SO FAR,

BUT SINCE THE ACTION
OF THE AGENT
IS PROGRESSIVE,

WE CAN BE SURE THAT
AS TIME PASSES,

THEY'LL BECOME
MORE PRONOUNCED.

IN ADDITION
TO THE TWO HUMANS,

SOME OF THE ANIMALS
ON THE LOGAN RANCH

SEEM TO HAVE BEEN
AFFECTED,

AND THE DESCRIPTION
WE HAVE FROM LOGAN

CORRESPONDS EXACTLY
WITH OUR LABORATORY
RESULTS.

OF COURSE...

THIS AGENT'S
A NEW TYPE.

WE'VE NEVER HAD
ANY HUMAN SUBJECTS.

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT
TO STUDY BOTH THESE
CASES CAREFULLY

SO WE CAN UNDERSTAND
EXACTLY HOW
THE AGENT OPERATES.

I REALIZE THIS IS
AN UNFORTUNATE
INCIDENT,

BUT WE'D BE FOOLISH
TO OVERLOOK

THE OPPORTUNITY
IT GIVES US

TO OBSERVE AN AGENT
OF THIS TYPE ACTING
ON HUMAN SUBJECTS.

UH, DR. JANEWAY...

FROM YOUR
CONVERSATION WITH
MAJOR HOLLIFORD,

CAN YOU ESTIMATE
THE CHANCES

THAT EITHER
OF THESE PEOPLE
WILL SURVIVE?

I'M SORRY. I THOUGHT
I MADE THAT CLEAR.

FROM THE INFORMATION
WE HAVE,

I SEE NO REASON TO EXPECT
EITHER OF THEM TO SURVIVE.

[PANTING]

HOW ARE YOU FEELING?

I'M ALL RIGHT.

I DON'T KNOW
WHY THE HELL THEY WANT
TO KEEP ME HERE ANYWAY.

AH, TAKE IT EASY.

IT'S JUST FOR A DAY.

THEY HAVE TO
RUN SOME TESTS,

AND THEY CAN'T
VERY WELL DO THAT
IF YOU'RE NOT HERE.

I'D SOONER BE HOME.

THEY GOT SOME
TESTS TO DO, I CAN
COME BACK TOMORROW.

WELL, THE TESTS
AREN'T THAT SIMPLE.

I REALLY THINK
YOU OUGHT TO STAY
HERE FOR A WHILE.

I GOT TO GET BACK
TO THE RANCH AND
LOOK AT MY STOCK.

I TOLD YOU
ABOUT THEM SHEEP.

WELL, LOOK, UM...

WHY DON'T I CALL
BILL PARKER?

HE'LL KEEP AN EYE
ON THINGS FOR YOU.

ANYTHING REALLY
SERIOUS, SPIKE
WOULD LET YOU KNOW.

WELL...
I SUPPOSE SO.

IF YOU WANT TO.

I'LL JUST BE GLAD
TO GET OUT OF HERE...

WHEN THEY'RE THROUGH.

YOU KNOW, ROY...

I HAVEN'T BEEN
IN A HOSPITAL
SINCE JOANNE DIED.

I'VE BEEN THINKING
ABOUT CHRIS.

MADE ME PRETTY NERVOUS
TO SEE HIM LIKE THAT
THIS MORNING.

UH, THERE'S NOTHING
TO WORRY ABOUT.

HE'LL BE ALL RIGHT.

YOU KNOW,
A BOY THAT AGE,

YOU JUST CAN'T
KEEP 'EM IN BED
VERY LONG.

I AM WORRIED.

HE'S NEVER BEEN
SICK BEFORE AT ALL.

YOU KNOW WHAT'S
WRONG WITH HIM?

IT'S HARD TO SAY
EXACTLY.

DR. HOLLIFORD
THINKS IT MIGHT BE

A REACTION
TO AN INSECTICIDE.

HE'S GONNA RUN
SOME ALLERGY TESTS,

AND, UM,
HE'LL PROBABLY
KNOW IN THE MORNING.

I HOPE SO.

DAN...

DON'T WORRY
ABOUT IT.

I'LL TELL YOU
SOMETHING.

THESE YOUNG DOCTORS
TODAY, THEY...

THEY KNOW MORE
THAN I EVER WILL.

HE'S GONNA BE
ALL RIGHT.

YOU BETTER GET
DR. THOMPSON
RIGHT AWAY.

[ON P.A. SYSTEM]
DR. THOMPSON
TO ISOLATION.

DR. THOMPSON
TO ISOLATION.

[MOANING]

ALL RIGHT, BARBARA,
I'LL TAKE OVER.

[MOANING]

GIVE ME ADRENALINE,
1/2 CC.

GET ME THE BOARD.

SEE IF YOU CAN
GET A PULSE.

I DON'T GET
A PULSE.

GIVE ME ANOTHER 1/2 CC.

YOU GET ANYTHING?

NO. NOTHING AT ALL.

STILL NO PULSE.

STILL NO PULSE.

WELL, THAT'S IT.

I'LL CALL DR. HOLLIFORD.

SEE THAT HE'S PUT
IN THE FREEZER RIGHT AWAY.

TV: OLD DAVE WILCOX,
COUNTY AGENT OVER IN
PLATT COUNTY--

I KNOW HE'S GOT
A LOT OF PRACTICAL
NEW IDEAS FOR YOU,

AND OF COURSE WE'LL
HAVE OUR WEATHER
AND CROP REPORTS

SAME AS USUAL,

BUT FIRST,
NATURALLY,

HERE'S TOM ARNOLD
WITH THE MORNING
NEWS.

THANKS, SHELDON.

THE BIG NEWS
THIS MORNING COMES
FROM CARBON COUNTY.

WE HAVE A REPORT
THAT SEVERAL HUNDRED
SHEEP DIED YESTERDAY

ABOUT 30 MILES
NORTH OF RAWLINS
NEAR FORT HOWARD,

RIGHT IN THE CENTER
OF CARBON COUNTY.

THE PUBLIC SERVICE--
THE PUBLIC HEALTH
SERVICE TOLD ME

THEY'RE INVESTIGATING IT
THOROUGHLY.

I READ THE MORNING
EDITION OF THE CASPER
POST SENTINEL,

AND THEY HAVE A QUOTE
FROM P.H.S. OFFICIALS

THAT THE DEATHS
MIGHT BE THE RESULT OF
INSECTICIDE POISONING.

OF COURSE, WE ALL HAVE
A LOT OF RESPECT

FOR THE PUBLIC HEALTH
SERVICE HERE IN WYOMING,

BUT I TALKED
WITH A LOCAL
VETERINARIAN LAST NIGHT

WHO SAW
THE SHEEP HIMSELF,

AND HE TOLD ME
HE THINKS A MUCH MORE
POWERFUL CHEMICAL

MIGHT BE INVOLVED,

A CHEMICAL LIKE
THE ONE THE ARMY USES
IN TESTS IN COMBAT,

SOMETHING THEY CALL
NERVE GAS.

IF THIS IS TRUE,

IT'S A MATTER OF GREAT
CONCERN TO EVERYONE
IN OUR VIEWING AREA.

THERE HAVE BEEN
RUMORS FOR A LONG TIME

THAT THESE
KINDS OF TESTS

ARE BEING CONDUCTED
AT FORT HOWARD.

MOST OF YOU PROBABLY
REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED

AT THE DUGWAY
PROVING GROUNDS...

FRED, SORRY
TO WAKE YOU.

I WAS JUST WATCHING
THE RANCH NEWS.

THEY'VE GOT A LONG ITEM
ON IT ABOUT THIS
MEDICINE CREEK BUSINESS.

YOU KNOW ANYTHING
ABOUT A VETERINARIAN
WHO SAW THE SHEEP?

WELL, THAT'S WHAT HE SAID.

THIS VET CLAIMS TO HAVE
EXAMINED THE SHEEP,

AND HE'S TALKING
ABOUT NERVE GAS.

THAT'S RIGHT.

WE BETTER TRY TO
GET HOLD OF HIM
RIGHT AWAY.

LET'S GET TOGETHER
ON THIS THING
THIS AFTERNOON.

THIS LOOKS LIKE
IT'S GOING TO BLOW UP.

WE WANT TO GET THE
PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE
OUT OF IT PRONTO.

MORNING. HOW ARE
YOU THIS MORNING?

GOOD MORNING, DOCTOR.

DO YOU HAVE
CHRIS LOGAN'S FILE?

I'M SORRY, DOCTOR.

CHRIS LOGAN DIED
DURING THE NIGHT.

DR. HOLLIFORD WANTS
TO SPEAK TO YOU ABOUT IT.

WHERE IS HE?

HE'S IN THE LUNCH ROOM.

WHAT I HAVE TO KEEP
ON MIND HERE

IS THE ARMY'S
POSITION IN
THIS MATTER.

EXCUSE ME,
DR. HOLLIFORD.

THE, UH...

I JUST HEARD
ABOUT CHRIS LOGAN.

OH, YES.
OH, EXCUSE ME.

DR. CARDWELL,
THIS IS DR. SPENCER

FROM THE PUBLIC
HEALTH SERVICE
AT CASPER.

DR. CARDWELL
IS MR. LOGAN'S
PHYSICIAN.

I'M VERY PLEASED
TO MEET YOU.

WELL, WHAT HAPPENED
LAST NIGHT?

I DIDN'T THINK
CHRIS LOGAN WAS
IN ANY DANGER.

FACT IS,
I DIDN'T--

WHY DON'T YOU
LET ME ANSWER THAT.

WILL YOU SIT DOWN
PLEASE, DOCTOR?

THIS, UH--THIS IS
A LITTLE COMPLICATED.

AS A MATTER OF FACT,
THE WHOLE MATTER IS
RATHER DELICATE.

WE'RE NOT EXACTLY SURE
WHAT KILLED CHRIS LOGAN.

WE THINK THAT IT WAS
A TOXIC CHEMICAL

THAT WE FOUND
TRACES OF IN THE
MEDICINE CREEK AREA.

WE DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT IS.

HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE
TO IDENTIFY IT YET.

WE'RE DOING OUR BEST
TO FIND OUT AND KEEP
IT UNDER CONTROL.

NATURALLY, WE'RE ALL
VERY CONCERNED.

AS FAR AS WE CAN TELL,
THE LOGANS WERE THE ONLY
ONES AFFECTED BY IT.

DR. HOLLIFORD
HAS DONE A LOT OF WORK
IN CHEMICAL TOXICATION,

AND HE'S BEEN
A GREAT DEAL
OF HELP TO US.

OF COURSE, HE DID
ALL HE COULD FOR CHRIS.

RIGHT NOW, THE THING
WE'RE MOST AFRAID OF

IS PANIC
IN THE COMMUNITY.

THAT'S WHY I'M
GOING TO ASK YOU
NOT TO TELL ANYONE

ABOUT CHRIS LOGAN'S
DEATH.

UNTIL WE GET
THIS SITUATION IN HAND,

WE DON'T WANT TO CAUSE
ANY UNNECESSARY ALARM.

WHAT ABOUT
THE OTHER PEOPLE
IN THE AREA?

THERE'S NO DANGER
TO THEM.

WE'VE TESTED THEM.
WE'VE TESTED THEIR RANCHES.

WHAT WE HAVE TO DO
RIGHT NOW IS FIND OUT
WHAT THIS IS,

FIND OUT WHERE
IT CAME FROM,

AND SEE THAT IT
DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

WHY DIDN'T YOU
TELL ME THIS
YESTERDAY?

WELL, TO BE HONEST
WITH YOU,

WE DIDN'T KNOW
JUST HOW BADLY
CHRIS LOGAN WAS.

SINCE WE THOUGHT
HE WAS GOING TO
BE ALL RIGHT,

WE SAW NO POINT IN
WORRYING YOU ABOUT IT.

WE WANT TO KEEP
THIS WHOLE THING
AS QUIET AS POSSIBLE.

THAT'S WHY IT'S
IMPORTANT THAT YOU
NOT TELL ANYONE.

WELL, I GUESS
YOU KNOW

A LOT MORE ABOUT
THIS SORT OF THING
THAN I DO.

YOU'D BE SURPRISED
HOW EASILY RUMORS
GET STARTED

AND WHAT UNNECESSARY
WORRY THEY CAUSE.

BELIEVE ME,
IT'S THE BEST WAY.

WELL, I'LL LEAVE IT
UP TO YOU.

YOU DON'T WANT ME
TO TELL ANYBODY,
I WON'T.

I'D APPRECIATE IT.
I REALLY WOULD.

OH, ONE OTHER THING, DOCTOR,
THAT WE HAVE TO ASK YOU.

DR. HOLLIFORD IS RUNNING
A SERIES OF TESTS

TO SEE HOW BADLY
THE BOY'S FATHER
WAS AFFECTED.

WE'RE AFRAID THAT
IF HE HEARS ABOUT
HIS SON'S DEATH,

HIS REACTION MAY INTERFERE
WITH THE TESTS,

SO WE'RE GOING TO
ASK YOU NOT TO TELL
HIM ABOUT IT, EITHER.

WILL IT REALLY
MAKE THAT MUCH
DIFFERENCE?

ABSOLUTELY, DOCTOR.
IT'S VITAL FOR
THE TESTS.

I DON'T SEE
HOW IT WOULD HURT

IF HE DOESN'T
HEAR ABOUT THIS
FOR A DAY OR TWO.

YEAH...I GUESS
YOU'RE RIGHT.

CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT ROOM
MR. LOGAN IS IN?

I CAME OVER TO VISIT HIM.

I'M AWFULLY SORRY,
MA'AM.

MR. LOGAN ISN'T
ALLOWED TO HAVE
ANY VISITORS.

OH, THAT'S TOO BAD.

I WONDER IF YOU
COULD DO ME A FAVOR.

I BROUGHT SOME
OF HIS THINGS
OVER FOR HIM.

CAN I LEAVE 'EM
HERE WITH YOU?

YES, MA'AM. I'LL SEE
THAT HE GETS THEM.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

OH, WOULD IT BE
ALL RIGHT FOR ME
TO SEE CHRIS LOGAN?

THAT'S DAN'S SON.

I'M SORRY, MA'AM.

HE'S NOT ALLOWED
ANY VISITORS,
EITHER.

HOW IS HE?

IS HE GETTING BETTER?

YES, MA'AM.
HIS CONDITION
IS SATISFACTORY.

THAT'S GOOD.

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

Man:
WE'RE ROLLING.

[SLATE SNAPS]

ALL RIGHT, MAJOR.

RECENTLY, QUESTIONS HAVE
BEEN RAISED IN CONNECT--

COULD WE START AGAIN
PLEASE, MAJOR?

RECENTLY, QUESTIONS
HAVE BEEN RAISED
IN CONNECTION

WITH THE APPARENT
INSECTICIDE POISONING
OF SEVERAL HUNDRED SHEEP

ON RANCHES NEAR FORT HOWARD.

THE ARMY WISHES TO CLARIFY
ITS POSITION ON THIS MATTER.

THE ARMY HAS CONDUCTED
NO TESTS OF ANY TOXIC
MATERIAL

IN THE VICINITY
OF THE AFFECTED RANCHES
IN THE MEDICINE CREEK AREA.

HOWEVER,
COLONEL ALAN A. NICKERSON,

COMMANDING OFFICER
OF FORT HOWARD,

HAS PLACED
THE FORT'S FACILITIES

AT THE DISPOSAL
OF THE PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE

TO AID IN ITS INVESTIGATION.

THE ARMY INTENDS TO CONTINUE
ITS FULL COOPERATION

WITH THE PUBLIC HEALTH
SERVICE

OUT OF CONCERN FOR
THE SAFETY OF EVERYONE
IN THE AREA.

WAS THAT OK?

LOOKED GOOD
TO ME.

LOOKS GOOD TO ME.

ALL RIGHT. YOU CAN
DISCONNECT HIM NOW.

YOU SENT FOR ME,
DOCTOR?

YES, MA'AM.
WE'RE JUST ABOUT
THROUGH HERE,

SO WHY DON'T YOU
GET MR. LOGAN'S
MEDICATION READY?

ALL RIGHT.

HOW'S MY BOY?

HE'S DOING
ALL RIGHT.

I'D LIKE TO SEE HIM.

I SAID I'D LIKE
TO GO SEE HIM.

WELL, I REALLY
DON'T THINK YOU
SHOULD RIGHT NOW.

IT'S VERY IMPORTANT
THAT HE NOT BE
DISTURBED.

I JUST WANT TO
LOOK IN ON HIM.

WELL, I'M SORRY,

BUT I REALLY CAN'T
ALLOW IT RIGHT NOW.

MAYBE TOMORROW.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

NOTHING. I'M JUST
THINKING OF HIM, SIR.

IS SOMETHING WRONG?

NO. IT'S JUST THAT
WE HAD TO MOVE HIM

TO ANOTHER PART
OF THE HOSPITAL

SO HE WOULDN'T
BE DISTURBED.

I JUST WANT TO
LOOK AT HIM.

ALL RIGHT, MR. LOGAN.
I'LL SEE WHAT I CAN DO.

WHAT ABOUT
THE TERMINAL PATIENT
IN 103?

I WANT TO MAKE
A CHANGE IN MR. LOGAN'S
MEDICATION.

YOU CAN TAKE HIM OFF
THE VALIUM FOR NOW,

BUT I WANT HIM
TO GET 3 GRAINS OF
PHENOBARBITAL SODIUM

RIGHT AWAY, PLEASE.

ALL RIGHT, DOCTOR.

THANK YOU.

Doctor:
ALL READY.

Doctor #2:
ALL RIGHT THEN.
LET'S GET STARTED.

IS THE MICROPHONE ON?

YES, SIR.

THE BODY IS THAT OF
A WELL-DEVELOPED MALE YOUTH

APPEARING TO BE
APPROXIMATELY 12 YEARS OF AGE.

LENGTH IS...

61 1/2 INCHES.

NUTRITIONAL STATUS
IS WELL-MAINTAINED.

THERE ARE NO EXTERNAL
EVIDENCE OF INJURY.

PUPILS ARE 3 MILLIMETERS
AND REGULAR.

THORAX AND ABDOMEN
SYMMETRICAL.

THERE IS...NOTHING REMARKABLE
ABOUT THE EXTREMITIES.

THE BODY IS OPENED WITH
A STANDARD Y-SHAPED INCISION.

[CALL BELL DINGS]

YOU'D BETTER SEE
WHAT MR. LOGAN WANTS.

ALL RIGHT.

IS SOMETHING
THE MATTER?

WHAT THE HELL
IS THIS?

OH, THAT'S JUST
AN INTRAVENOUS.

IT'S NOTHING
TO WORRY ABOUT.

THEY DO IT ALL THE TIME.

WHERE'S MY SON?

NOW, YOU JUST REST.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT
A THING.

I WANNA SEE CHRIS.
WHERE'S DR. HOLLIFORD?

MR. LOGAN, EVERYTHING
IS ALL RIGHT.

YOU JUST NEED SOME SLEEP.

I'LL LOOK IN
ON YOU LATER.

[WHIMPERING]

GOOD MORNING,
DR. CARDWELL.

MORNING. WHO ORDERED
THE INTRAVENOUS
ON MR. LOGAN?

IT MUST'VE BEEN
DR. HOLLIFORD.

IT WAS BEFORE
I CAME ON.

YOU KNOW WHAT
HE'S GETTING?

JUST GLUCOSE
AND A SEDATIVE
EVERY THIRD BOTTLE.

UM...YOU HAVE
MR. LOGAN'S CHART?

I'LL GET IT FOR YOU.

IT DOESN'T SEEM
TO BE HERE.

I'M PRETTY SURE
DR. HOLLIFORD
HAD IT.

HE'S BEEN WORKING
IN 113.

WHY DON'T YOU
LOOK IN THERE?

ALL RIGHT.
THANK YOU.

DR. HOLLIFORD,
CAN I TALK TO YOU
FOR A MINUTE?

IS IT IMPORTANT?
I'M BUSY NOW.

YES, IT IS.

I'LL GET
A CUP OF COFFEE.

WHAT IS IT, DOCTOR?

I JUST SAW YOUR FILE
ON DAN LOGAN.

OH, REALLY?

I THOUGHT MAYBE
YOU COULD EXPLAIN
A FEW THINGS.

WELL, THAT DEPENDS.

WHAT IS IT YOU
WANT TO KNOW?

WELL, I SAW YOUR
ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAMS,

AND I TRIED
TO COMPARE THEM

TO THE ONES YOU'D MARKED
IN BRODIE AND CRAMER.

NOW, MAYBE IT'S
NOT MY BUSINESS TO
MAKE A DIAGNOSIS,

BUT IT LOOKED TO ME
LIKE DAN

HAS WHAT THEY CALL
"BRIGGS-MIERBURG SYNDROME."

YES. THAT'S MORE
OR LESS CORRECT.

WELL, IF I UNDERSTOOD
THE BOOK RIGHT,

THAT SYNDROME'S
NEARLY ALWAYS FATAL.

THAT'S RIGHT.

WELL, YOU HAVE
A PROGNOSIS?!

I MIGHT AS WELL BE
PERFECTLY FRANK
WITH YOU, DOCTOR.

I DON'T EXPECT HIM
TO LIVE MORE THAN
ANOTHER WEEK.

YOU'RE SURE OF THAT?

YES, I AM.

DID DR. SPENCER
KNOW ABOUT THIS?

YES, HE DOES.

THEN WHY DIDN'T
HE TELL ME?

DAN LOGAN
IS MY PATIENT.

WHY DO YOU HAVE HIM
ON SEDATION?

I JUST THOUGHT IT WOULD
HELP HIM REST.

HE SURELY DOESN'T
NEED CONSTANT
SEDATION.

I THINK HE SHOULD BE
TAKEN OFF THE I.V.

DOES HE KNOW ABOUT
HIS CONDITION?

NO, AND FRANKLY,
I'D RATHER YOU
DIDN'T TELL HIM.

WHY NOT? HE HAS
A RIGHT TO KNOW.

THERE'S JUST NO POINT
IN GETTING HIM UPSET.

I DON'T AGREE.
I'VE KNOWN DAN LOGAN
FOR 40 YEARS,

AND I KNOW HE'D
WANT ME TO TELL HIM.

I REALLY DON'T THINK
YOU SHOULD, DOCTOR.

I HAVE TO INSIST.

I'M SORRY, BUT
I'M GONNA TELL HIM.

I DON'T THINK YOU
HANDLED THIS THING
VERY WELL AT ALL.

I'M GONNA SEE DAN,

THEN I'M GOING
TO HAVE A LONG TALK
WITH DR. SPENCER.

JUST ONE MOMENT,
AND I'LL CHECK FOR YOU.

OH, DR. CARDWELL,
THERE'S A CALL HERE
FOR YOU.

TAKE A MESSAGE.

COULD I TAKE
A MESSAGE, PLEASE?

JUST A MOMENT.

WHERE'S MR. LOGAN?

HE'S HAVING
A FEW MORE TESTS.

I WANT TO SEE HIM.

THERE'S NO REASON TO BE
UPSET, DR. CARDWELL.

BY THE WAY,
YOU KNOW MR. SIMPSON.

HE'S A COLLEAGUE
OF DR. HOLLIFORD'S.

DOCTOR.

WHY, UH--
WHY DON'T YOU SIT DOWN
FOR A MINUTE, DOCTOR?

NO, THANK YOU.

WHAT YOU HAVE
TO UNDERSTAND

IS THAT WE HAVE
A VERY DIFFICULT
SITUATION HERE.

WOMEN--MY PULSE RATE
GOES UP.

NOW, YOU PEOPLE
ARE NURSES.

REALLY, MY PULSE
GOES UP.

ARE YOU WATCHING
HIM OR NOT?

NO PROBLEM, DOC.
NOT A PEEP OUT OF HIM.

YOU'D BETTER KEEP
AN EYE ON HIM.

HE'S BEEN TAKEN
OFF SEDATION.

HAS HE HAD
HIS DINNER?

YES, SIR, ABOUT
AN HOUR AGO.

GOOD. WELL,
I BETTER GO
AND TALK TO HIM.

YOU WANT ME
TO GO WITH YOU?

NO, I DON'T THINK
THAT'LL BE NECESSARY.

YOU JUST WAIT OUTSIDE.

HELLO, MR. LOGAN.

I'M DR. SPENCER.

WHERE'S DR. CARDWELL?

HE WON'T BE
SEEING YOU ANYMORE.

HE'S ASKED ME TO
TAKE OVER YOUR CASE.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

HE'S BEEN MY DOCTOR
ALL MY LIFE.

WELL, WE RAN INTO
SOME PROBLEMS

THAT HE THOUGHT
WOULD BEST BE LEFT

TO DR. HOLLIFORD
AND MYSELF.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WHAT KIND
OF PROBLEMS?

THERE'S NO NEED
TO BE ALARMED.

IT'S NOT UNCOMMON FOR
A DOCTOR TO TAKE HIMSELF
OFF A CASE

IF HE FEELS IT'S IN
THE PATIENT'S INTEREST.

I WANNA TALK
TO ROY CARDWELL.

YES, OF COURSE.

I JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW

DR. HOLLIFORD AND I
WOULD BE LOOKING AFTER
YOU FROM NOW ON

JUST SO YOU
WOULDN'T BE ALARMED.

YOU LOOKING AFTER
MY BOY, TOO?

YES...YES, I AM.

I WANT TO SEE HIM.

I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT'S WRONG
WITH HIM.

WELL, WE'RE HAVING
A LITTLE DIFFICULTY
WITH HIS DIAGNOSIS.

WE DON'T THINK
IT'S SERIOUS,

BUT IT IS SOMETHING
A LITTLE UNUSUAL.

IT'LL TAKE US
A WEEK OR TWO

TO FIGURE OUT
JUST WHAT IT IS.

THESE THINGS HAPPEN
SOMETIMES.

WHY CAN'T I SEE HIM?

WE DON'T THINK HE
SHOULD BE DISTURBED
RIGHT NOW.

BELIEVE ME,
WHEN IT'S ALL RIGHT,
WE'LL LET YOU KNOW.

I JUST WANT
TO SEE HIM.

ALL I WANT TO DO
IS LOOK AT HIM.

THERE'S--THERE'S NO TIME
FOR THAT TONIGHT.

WE'LL, UM--WE'LL TALK
ABOUT THIS IN THE MORNING.

OH...THAT'S TERRIFIC.

HERE.

THAT'S MY FAVORITE.
WHAT ARE YOU--

IT'S HAM.

HOSPITAL HAM.

YES. DO YOU WANT
SOME COFFEE?

SURE.

ALL RIGHT.

[TABLE SLIDES OUT]

[WEEPING]

GODDAMN IT...

GODDAMN IT!

YOU WANT ANYTHING?

SOME BLACK COFFEE.

PIECE OF THIS CAKE.

SIMPSON...

HAVE YOU SEEN--
HAVE YOU SEEN
MR. LOGAN?

NO. HE'S IN HIS ROOM,
ISN'T HE?

[ENGINE STARTS]

UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES,
I FELT THE BEST THING

WAS TO DECIDE WHERE
HE'S MOST LIKELY TO GO

AND HAVE OUR MEN
THERE WAITING FOR HIM
WHEN HE SHOWS UP.

I SENT A DETAIL
TO HIS RANCH,

AND I'VE GOT MEN
AT THE AIRPORT
AND THE BUS DEPOT.

I'VE ALSO GOT 3 MEN
LOOKING FOR HIM DOWNTOWN

AND ANOTHER ONE
WAITING AT HIS BANK,

AND I'VE ASKED
THE POLICE TO CALL ME
IF THEY PICK HIM UP.

HAVE YOU THOUGHT
ABOUT PUTTING UP
ROADBLOCKS?

YES, SIR.
WE TALKED ABOUT IT,
BUT WE RULED IT OUT

BECAUSE WE THOUGHT WE'D
CAUSE TOO MUCH COMMENT.

BESIDES, HE
DIDN'T HAVE A CAR,

AND IF HE GOT ONE,
HE'D PROBABLY DRIVE
TO HIS RANCH,

AND WE ALREADY HAVE
MEN STATIONED THERE.

I SEE.

EXCUSE ME, BUT WHAT
DO YOU INTEND TO DO

ABOUT DR. CARDWELL?

THAT'S
A GOOD POINT.

THERE MUST BE
A LOT OF PEOPLE
AT THE HOSPITAL

WHO COULD
CAUSE TROUBLE
ABOUT HIM.

I WAS JUST
COMING TO THAT.

WHAT ABOUT
THE NURSES?

WHAT HAVE THEY
BEEN TOLD?

WE DON'T HAVE
TO WORRY ABOUT THEM.

I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT,
DR. HOLLIFORD.

YOU DIDN'T THINK WE
NEEDED MORE THAN ONE
MAN TO WATCH LOGAN.

IF HE'D
DONE HIS JOB,

THERE WOULDN'T HAVE
BEEN ANY TROUBLE--

IF LOGAN
HAD BEEN SLEEPING,

THERE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN
ANY PROBLEM EITHER.

ALL RIGHT, GENTLEMEN.
THAT'S ENOUGH.
KNOCK IT OFF.

I'LL TAKE IT.

THAT'S A REAL HANDY
KIND OF A GUN.

I DON'T KNOW WHY
WE DON'T SELL
MORE OF THEM.

GUESS YOU'LL NEED
SOME SHELLS.

YEAH.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

[RING-RING]

[REPEATED RINGING]

WHO IS IT?

WHO IS IT?

DAN LOGAN.

OH...

COME IN.

YOU KNOW, YOU SHOULD BE
IN THE HOSPITAL.

ANYBODY ELSE HERE?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

ARE YOU ALONE IN HERE?

WELL, YES.

RIGHT NOW, I AM.

LET'S SEE THE REST
OF THE HOUSE.

ALL RIGHT.

SLOW DOWN.

ALL RIGHT,
OPEN THE DOOR.

JUST WHAT IS IT YOU'RE
LOOKING FOR, MR.--

OPEN IT.

Logan: GO AHEAD.

[DOOR OPENS]

Logan: WAIT A MINUTE.
HOLD IT. LET ME SEE.

ALL RIGHT. GO ON.

[MOVING AROUND THE HOUSE]

NOT TOO FAST.

ALL RIGHT. GO ON
INTO THE LIVING ROOM.

SIT DOWN.

YOU DON'T NEED
THAT GUN, MR. LOGAN.

NOBODY WANTS
TO HURT YOU.

SIT DOWN.

I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT KILLED MY BOY.

WELL, I--I WISH
I KNEW THAT MYSELF.

MY BOY'S DEAD. I WANT
TO KNOW WHAT KILLED HIM.

I'LL BE HONEST
WITH YOU, MR. LOGAN.

WE STILL DON'T KNOW.

DON'T LIE TO ME.

YOU TOLD ME
CHRIS WAS ALL RIGHT.

WELL, I--I JUST DIDN'T
WANT TO UPSET YOU
JUST THEN. I...

IN THE MORNING I WAS
GOING TO TELL YOU--

DON'T GIVE ME THAT SHIT.

HE'D BEEN DEAD
FOR 2 DAYS!

NOW, SOMETHING GOT
TO ME AND MY SHEEP,
AND IT KILLED MY BOY.

NOW THE ARMY'S
ALL OVER MY RANCH.

I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT HAPPENED.

I DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING
TO DO WITH IT.

YOU'VE BEEN IN ON THIS
FROM THE BEGINNING--

YOU AND THE ARMY.

THERE MUST BE
SOME MISUNDERSTANDING.

I'M NOT WITH THE ARMY.

I'M WITH THE PUBLIC
HEALTH SERVICE.

I DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING
TO DO WITH IT.

MR. LOGAN, YOU--YOU
REALLY SHOULD BE
IN THE HOSPITAL.

THE DISEASE
THAT KILLED YOUR BOY
IS KILLING YOU.

IF YOU DON'T GET
BACK TO THE HOSPITAL,

YOU'LL BE DEAD
IN 2 WEEKS.

I KNOW HOW SICK I AM.

I JUST TALKED
TO ROY CARDWELL.

I KNOW I'M GONNA DIE
IN A FEW DAYS,

AND I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON.

I CAN'T TELL YOU.

I DON'T KNOW.

AND EVEN IF I DID KNOW,
I--I COULDN'T TELL YOU.

ALL THIS IS
SECRET INFORMATION.

LOOK, MR. LOGAN,
WHAT POSSIBLE GOOD
WOULD IT DO

FOR ME TO TELL YOU
THESE THINGS?

DAMN YOU, TELL ME.

[RRRROWWRRR]

ALL RIGHT.

IT WAS A CHEMICAL...
CALLED MX-3.

IT WAS DEVELOPED
BY THE...

CHIVINGTON...
RESEARCH LABORATORIES
AT SINCLAIR.

THEY DEVELOP CHEMICALS
FOR THE ARMY.

THEY WERE CONDUCTING
TESTS FOR THE...

AT FORT HOWARD.

ROGER. JUST SAY AGAIN.

3858 OK.

THAT'S A 10-4.

Radio: ALL UNITS,
WE HAVE A 10-17.

DAN CHARLES LOGAN,
WHITE MALE, 6 FEET,
BROWN HAIR...

[MOTORCYCLE REVVING]

SUSPECT IS REPORTED
ARMED WITH A RIFLE.

DO NOT APPREHEND.

REPORT LOCATION
DISPATCH.

LAST SEEN
IN THE VICINITY...

THESE ROCK SLIDES SURE ARE
A PAIN, AIN'T THEY?

THIS MUST BE THE THIRD ONE
YOU'VE HAD SINCE SPRING.

I'LL JUST PUT ALL THIS
ON YOUR BILL.

GOT ENOUGH HERE
TO CLEAR 3, 4 BIG ONES.

THAT OUGHT TO HOLD YOU
TILL NEXT YEAR.

HOW YOU BEEN, MR. LOGAN?

ALL RIGHT, BILLY.
HOW ARE YOU?

I UNDERSTAND...YOU LOST
SOME SHEEP THE OTHER NIGHT.

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT.

GOOD LUCK, MR. LOGAN.

LET US KNOW IF YOU NEED
ANYTHING ELSE.

THE MX-3 WAS REMOVED.

THERE'S NO DANGER
OF CONTAMINATION.

Logan: DON'T MAKE A SOUND,
OR I'LL KILL YA.

GET IN.

Radio: THE FEDERAL BUREAU
OF INVESTIGATION

HAS IDENTIFIED
DANIEL CHARLES LOGAN, 42,
OF CARBON COUNTY, WYOMING,

AS THE PRIME SUSPECT
IN THE DYNAMITE BOMBING

OF THE CHIVINGTON RESEARCH
LABORATORIES NEAR SINCLAIR
IN SOUTHERN WYOMING

EARLY YESTERDAY.

THE FBI SAID
THAT LOGAN'S FINGERPRINTS

WERE FOUND
ON DEMOLITION EQUIPMENT
USED IN THE EXPLOSIONS.

A WIDESPREAD MANHUNT
FOR LOGAN IS UNDERWAY

THROUGHOUT
THE MOUNTAIN STATES AREA.

MEANWHILE, THE PENTAGON
HAS REFUSED TO COMMENT

ON ALLEGATIONS THAT
THE RESEARCH FACILITY

WAS ENGAGED IN TOP SECRET
DEFENSE WORK.

DR. WALTER STEENROD,
DIRECTOR OF THE LABORATORIES,

HAS ALSO REFUSED
TO MAKE ANY STATEMENT
ABOUT THE INCIDENT.

A WYOMING PHYSICIAN,
DR. ROY CARDWELL, HAS TOLD
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

THAT THE SUSPECT,
DANIEL LOGAN,

MAY BE SUFFERING
FROM AN INCURABLE
NERVOUS DISORDER

AND THAT LOGAN WAS UPSET
AT THE RECENT ACCIDENTAL
DEATH OF HIS SON.

OFFICIALS AT THE HOSPITAL
WHERE LOGAN
WAS BEING TREATED

SAY THAT THEY ARE NOT FREE
TO COMMENT AT THIS TIME.

IN WASHINGTON,
CONGRESSMAN MICHAEL PAYNE,

CHAIRMAN OF
THE HOUSE SUBCOMMITTEE

ON CHEMICAL
AND BIOLOGICAL WARFARE

AND A LONGTIME CRITIC
OF THE PENTAGON,

HAS CALLED FOR
A FULL CONGRESSIONAL--

[TURNS RADIO OFF]

TURN RIGHT
AT THE NEXT ROAD.

WHEN YOU GET TO THE GATE,
STOP.

DON'T MOVE.
DON'T MAKE A SOUND.

I DON'T HAVE
ANYTHING TO LOSE.
I'LL KILL YA.

ARE YOU FELLAS LOST?

DRIVE THROUGH IT.

GO ON!

KEEP GOING.

STOP THE TRUCK.

OPEN THE DOOR
AND GET OUT.

LOOK, MISTER,
I DID EVERYTHING
THAT YOU TOLD ME.

GO ON.

COME ON, MISTER. PLEASE.

GO ON, GET OUT.
I'M NOT GONNA HURT YOU.

[ALARM SIREN BLARES]

NO, SIR. HE'S STANDING UP,
BUT HE ISN'T MOVING.

HE'S SHOOTING AT US.

P.A.: THIS IS CAPTAIN MANN.
DO NOT SHOOT.

REPEAT...DO NOT SHOOT.

MR. LOGAN,
PUT DOWN YOUR GUN.

NO ONE WILL HARM YOU.

PUT DOWN YOUR GUN.

[COUGHING]

P.A.: DO NOT TOUCH THIS MAN.

APPROACH WITH CAUTION.

MEDICAL ASSISTANCE
HAS BEEN DISPATCHED.

REPEAT...DO NOT
TOUCH THIS MAN.

GIVE ME A NEEDLE
AND A SYRINGE RIGHT AWAY.

HE'S DEAD.

THEY'RE GOING
TO WANT HIM IN DENVER
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

I'M SORRY. YOU'RE GONNA
HAVE TO GET OUT.

GET OUT OF HERE!

GET OUT!

[PROTESTING]

ALL RIGHT.
