Lost (2004–2010): Season 1, Episode 1 - Pilot: Part 1 - full transcript
Forty-eight survivors of an airline flight originating from Australia, bound for the U.S., which crash-lands onto an unknown island 1000 miles off course, struggle to figure out a way to survive while trying to find a way to be rescued.

TV satellite control, take over.
Ladies and gentlemen, today,
the first of what may be...
as many as 10 million families
per year...
is setting out on its epic voyage
into man's newest frontier...
for colonization: deep space.
Reaching out into other worlds from
our desperately overcrowded planet...
a series of deep-thrust telescopic
probes into neighboring galaxies...
have conclusively
established Alpha Centauri...
as the one planet within
the range of our technology...
able to furnish ideal conditions
for human existence.
The space family, selected from
more than 2 million volunteers...
for its unique balance of scientific
achievement, emotional stability...
and pioneer resourcefulness, will spend
the 98 years of their voyage...
frozen into the state
of suspended animation.
[ All Speaking In Foreign Languages ]
[ Tabulating ]
[ Man Over P.A.] This is Alpha Control.
We are at six minutes, 40 seconds...
and holding.
We have encountered an electrical
power failure in our computer...
at the Bermuda
tracking station.
Six minutes, 40 seconds
and holding.
[ Computers Continue Tabulating ]
This is Alpha Control
resuming countdown.
We are at six minutes,
40 seconds and counting.
Power has been restored
at our Bermuda tracking station...
six minutes, 30 seconds
and counting.
The spaceship's electronic brain
will take over for the balance...
of the century-long
hibernation...
during which it will be traveling at
the almost unimaginable speed of light.
Here now is the Gemini 12, the culmination
of nearly 40 years of intensive research...
and the most sophisticated piece of
hardware yet devised by the mind of man.
Bold in concept,
brilliant in execution...
this most delicate,
yet most colossal of instruments...
makes possible man's thrust
into deep space...
and will,
in approximately five minutes...
set out on its quest
for a new world.
Heading the expedition
will be Dr. John Robinson...
Professor of Astrophysics at
the University of Stellar Dynamics...
now seen
on your screen.
With him, marking the first time in history
that anyone but an adult male has passed...
the International Space
Administration's grueling...
physical and emotional screening
for intergalactic flight...
will be his wife,
Dr. Maureen Robinson...
the distinguished biochemist of the
New Mexico College of Space Medicine.
Their daughter, Judith, aged 19,
who has rather heroically postponed...
all hopes for a career
in the musical comedy field...
for the next two centuries,
at least.
Their son, Will, who recently was graduated
from the Camdo Canyon School of Science...
at the age of nine with the highest
average in the school's history.
And their daughter, Penny,
age 11, I.Q., 147...
hobby, zoology.
Their assistant,
Dr. Donald West...
graduate student from
the Center for Radio Astronomy...
is the same young man who last year
rocked the scientific world...
with his theory regarding other
planets' fitness for human habitation.
[ Beeping Rapidly ]
Electromagnetic miracles
now come into play.
This cosmic glow, induced through
the genius of advanced technology...
will put the Robinson family
in a state of limbo...
enabling them to make a lifetime flight
while aging but a second...
in the time of man.
From this moment on, the
Family Robinson and their assistant...
are in a state of suspended animation,
which is to last for the next 98 years.
- And now--
- [ Telephone Rings ]
- One moment, please.
- [ TV Announcer ] Ladies and gentlemen...
the president
of the United States.
Fellow Americans,
friends all over the world...
upon the success
of this mission...
will depend whether the explosive
increase of population on this planet...
will ultimately lead to a disaster
from which none will be exempt...
or to a new dawn of plenty
for all of humanity.
None can predict the outcome of this
audacious venture to the very stars.
To those who have
staked their lives...
upon this bold expansion
of man's horizons...
I humbly say:
Go in peace.
The prayers of mankind
are with you.
[ Man Over P.A.]
This is Alpha Control.
Countdown minus
19 seconds and counting.
All systems are green
and go.
Countdown minus 10 seconds.
Eight, seven, six...
five, four, three...
two, one, zero.
Blastoff!
All systems here at Alpha Control
are green and go.
The trajectory
now profiles properly.
The spaceship
is climbing correctly to plan.
Is now passing the point
of maximum dynamic pressure.
If it holds its present attitude,
it will reach perfect orbit.
The fantastic acceleration needed to
break out of the Earth's gravity...
has apparently not affected the
well-being of our space travelers.
Here at Alpha Control, remote readings
appear normal with no indication of change.
Medical telemeters show
all members of the Robinson family...
are safe and well...
still in their total blackout of suspended
animation during this fantastic acceleration...
whose pressures would be
unbearable otherwise.
[ Computers Humming ]
An unpredicted rain of meteors traveling
at speeds of up to 25,000 miles an hour...
have converged in a giant elliptical form
a thousand miles in diameter...
immediately ahead
of the spaceship.
[ Beeping Rapidly ]
Gemini 12, traveling
at 18,400 miles per hour...
cannot be shifted fast enough in its preset
flight pattern to make total escape possible.
[ Electrical Arcing ]
[ Rapid Beeping ]
Gemini 12's fantastic ability
to regenerate its own damage controls...
is now the last hope
for the safety of the Robinson family...
and the success of the flight.
Heat telemeters
here at Alpha Control...
show an outbreak of fire in back
of all the controls in the spaceship.
Unless fire extinguishing
apparatus functions properly...
and control regeneration
occurs immediately...
all hope for the Gemini
is now gone.
[ Indistinct Whirring ]
- [ Humming ]
- Alpha Control's final analysis
on Gemini 12's flight...
indicates unhappily that the spaceship
has either been destroyed...
or must be presumed
lost in space.
[ Indistinct Whirring Continues ]
[ Crash ]
[ John Thinking ]
December 3 in the year 2001.
None of us knows for sure how long
we traveled in suspended animation.
Our atomic clock indicates three
and a half years, but we're not positive.
We do know for a fact that it is now
exactly six months since our landing...
on this unknown planet.
Thank heaven we survived
that terrible crash...
which completely
disabled the spaceship.
We are hopeful of its eventual repair
and our ability to use it again.
Meanwhile,
all goes reasonably well.
- [ Will ] Hey! Hey, come back here!
- We've established a base camp...
domesticated some of the local
animals and cultivated a small farm.
- Debbie.
- [ Will ] Hey, come on back!
- Come back here when I say,
"Come back here!"
- Children.
- Wait till Daddy gets home.
- Come back here!
Hey, come on.
Come back! Please? Come back!
- Mom, when are they coming home?
- Well, let's see.
They were due back
a half an hour ago.
- You don't think anything happened?
- Oh, no. Of course not.
I hope the instruments
are okay.
I hope the instruments
are okay.
This wind might
have smashed everything.
- The wind is stronger.
- It's getting colder.
[ Wind Whistling ]
Look at this thing.
By the day after tomorrow...
the temperature'll
drop 150 below zero.
- What'll we do?
- We're gonna have to head south, but fast.
Abandon the spaceship? What if it's
finally spotted by some passing rocket?
They'll televise the picture
back to Earth.
Oh, yeah. That's great. A picture
showing no signs of life, no survivors.
Don, I'd rather not be found at all if I had
to be picked up by a pair of ice tongs.
Come on.
Let's get out of here.
You don't suppose
we could just button up the hatches...
and stick it out
inside the spaceship, do ya?
We'd freeze to death. Take my word for it.
Even if we could insulate well enough...
the solar batteries
would never stand the drain.
- It's moving day, Dr. West.
- Wait a minute.
There's one gauge we oughta check...
just to see
how much time we do have.
Look.
That... couldn't be.
It is.
A footprint.
Not of a man.
Of a something
that walks on two feet.
Only five times as big as anything
we ever thought of as human.
Giants?
Come on, Doc.
Let's go. I don't want to leave the family
alone a second longer than necessary.
[ Growling ]
[ Gasping ]
I don't believe it.
- Neither do I. But let's get out of here.
- [ Creature Grunts ]
Don!
[ Electrical Arcing ]
- [ Chuckling ] How's it coming?
- Pretty good.
[ Sighs ]
- Don't pick too many, dear.
- [ Judy ] I won't, Mother.
[ Beeping ]
Hey, Mom,
I got it working!
- What?
- The radio telescope.
- Did you locate Dad?
- I'm not so sure.
- Can't you talk to him?
- I've got a picture. No sound.
What do you see?
- See something?
- [ Groans ]
Holy cow, it is!
A giant!
Let me look again.
[ Exhales ]
- Did either of them take a gun with them?
- What's wrong?
- What is it?
- I don't know yet.
Well, then,
why are you talking about guns?
Mom, we've got to do something.
They'll be killed if we don't.
Now, Judy, please. Just calm down.
There's nothing we can do except wait.
- Oh, yes, there is.
- Will.
Will, you come back here,
you hear me? Will!
- Will!
- Will!
There's no other way out.
I'd better
take another look.
- No! Wait!
- Wait for what? Till we starve to death?
We're safe in here. If we get him any
madder, he'll tear this mountain apart.
Sorry, Doc.
[ Low Growling ]
[ Screeches ]
- Guess I didn't help matters much, did I?
- We know he can feel pain.
Yeah. And he knows
we're hiding in here.
[ Continues Growling ]
Look out!
[ Roars ]
[ Screeches ]
[ Will ]
Dad! Dad!
Will! Will!
- Dad!
- Will!
Dad, I killed the giant!
I killed him!
You sure did.
Will... what
are you doin' here?
I saw you in trouble
over the scope, so I--
So you thought
you'd come and save us?
And you did save us. Now, I want you to
promise me something on your word of honor.
- Yes, sir.
- When I tell you to stay
and protect the family...
don't you ever leave
your post again, understand?
If we're gonna survive, we must follow
orders. And that goes for all of us.
There may be
other giants around.
Here.
Put this on.
There you go.
Ah. Not as big
as you thought you were, huh?
- Uh-uh.
- All right. Let's move.
Come on.
Come on, kids. Keep movin'. I want us
out of here in the next five minutes.
[ Wind Whistling ]
- Let's go. I want us to get out
of here as quickly as we can.
- All right.
Children.
Come on, now. Let's go.
Will, where's Penny?
Where's your sister?
She was riding on the turtle, she and the Bloop.
Then all of a sudden, she was gone.
- Where did she go?
- I don't know. I turned around,
and she wasn't there anymore.
- Ohh.
- Don't worry. I'll find her.
Ohh. Penny!
Penny! Penny!
Listen, Don. When that blizzard hits,
which may be sooner than we expect...
the temperature's gonna drop about
60 degrees in less than half an hour.
The moment it hits 10 below, I want you
to take off by way of the inland sea.
Wouldn't we be better off
going by land?
We'd have to go through
the giants' valley, and that's too risky...
especially after that close call
we had this morning.
- Doc, I'm not gonna take off without you.
- Whether I come back or not.
[ Engine Revving ]
Don't worry.
[ Wind Whistling ]
I'm cold.
If I catch pneumonia from this...
they're never ever gonna
let me play with either of you again.
I knew turtles were stubborn, but I thought
you'd have more sense than to run away.
Now we're all lost.
[ Debbie Chittering ]
Hey, come back here! We'd better stick
together, or none of us will get home.
Come on, Debbie.
Come on. Good girl.
Oh, Daddy!
Daddy.
Daddy! Daddy!
- Oh, Daddy, I was so frightened.
- It's all right.
- There's nothing to be frightened of.
It's all right.
- Oh, I'm cold.
I'll bet you are.
Nine below. One more degree,
and they'll leave without us.
- Come on. Piggyback.
- Come on, Debbie. Come on.
- Come on.
- Come on.
- Come on.
- All right?
- Yeah.
- Okay. Hang on, now.
Okay.
[ Debbie Chittering ]
[ Chittering Continues ]
- How do you like it?
- Oh, it's great.
- How's the Bloop?
- Oh, fine.
It won't be long.
- Will?
- [ Will ] Coming!
I had to
get my tester.
[ Maureen ]
Okay, dear. In you go.
We can't leave without Daddy
and Penny. We just can't!
- We have to. We'll all die if we don't.
- Don, please.
- Just a few more minutes.
- You think I like to leave without them?
When Dr. Robinson said 10 below zero,
he didn't just pick a number out of a hat.
That's the deadline, with the emphasis
on "dead," if we don't stick to it.
No! No! I'm not leaving without them.
Don't start the motor! I'm warning you!
Oh, Judy,
please stop it!
We're not going
without them!
Mom, look!
[ Exhales ]
Don, take the gun hatch
just in case.
[ Roaring ]
[ Continues Roaring ]
[ John ]
Don, fire!
[ Gunfire ]
[ Screeches ]
[ Chittering ]
[ Chittering Continues ]
I wonder how cold it is
back at the spaceship now.
- Too cold.
- Oh, no.
- What's the matter?
- Those big boulders didn't
do the power unit any good.
- How long to fix?
- A couple hours, anyway.
I don't know how safe it is,
but we'd better camp here.
## [ Will On Guitar ]
How are you ever gonna dress like
a lady if you don't hold still? Ohh.
- I'm glad Dad decided to camp here.
- Yeah.
All the comforts of home.
Home was never like this.
- Mom, Dad, betcha don't know what I saw.
- What?
Judy and Don. He was
kissing her on the hand like this.
Bet he picked up
a million germs.
Bet he picked up
a million germs.
Well, Penny, dear, young people
sometimes have ways of doing things...
which, to wiser heads
such as you and I...
may seem a little strange.
In other words,
I should mind my own business?
- That's right.
- I thought so.
[ Laughing ]
I do find it hard to think of Judy
as anything but a child.
Well, considering
the population implosion up here...
we can't very well ask her
to play the field, now, can we?
No. That's right.
Now I know the one scientific specialty
we didn't bring from Earth.
- What's that?
- A marriage counselor.
- For them?
- Who else?
[ Thunderclap ]
- Power D-F.
- Powering One-W now.
[ Electrical Arcing ]
- Try W-Two.
- W-Two.
- [ Thunderclap ]
- [ John ] We must find a cave for protection.
We'll be killed if we don't.
Seat belts on, huh?
- [ Maureen ] They're all set.
- I'll switch when clear, Doc.
[ John ]
All right. Hold it steady, then.
[ Thunderclaps ]
What kind of a place
is this?
[ Judy ]
Well, it looks like a big cave.
Let's take a look.
- [ Penny ] It's a city!
- There are no cities out here,
for cryin' out loud.
- Then what is it?
- Some sort of geological accident.
How do I know? Ask Don.
My field's electronics.
Well, pardon me.
- It looks almost like some sort of a--
- A kind of a castle.
You don't suppose
there's somebody still living here?
- [ Thunderclaps Continue ]
- We'll soon find out. Don, save the flares.
- We'll need 'em later.
- I'll get the flashlights.
Debbie.
Come on, Debbie.
We'll see if it's safe enough
to spend the night.
- Stay with us, now.
- Now, watch this.
- Lights?
- Yeah. Here.
- [ Don ] Will.
- [ Will ] Here.
Thank you.
Everybody all right
back there?
[ Debbie Chittering ]
Debbie, where are you?
Debbie?
Debbie?
Are you in here?
Debbie? Debbie!
Debbie, where are you?
Hey, Penny!
Penny, come on out!
Penny?
- Debbie?
- Hey, Penny!
- Will, Debbie's gone!
- You women are always gettin' lost.
Debbie! Debbie,
where are you?
Are you here?
- Hey, look. Pictures.
- We have no time for those.
- I've got to find Debbie.
- Wow.
- Debbie!
- Penny, help!
[ Screeches ]
Will, are you hurt?
- Stop fussing. I'm all right.
- Then get up.
- Where are we?
- I don't know.
[ Screams ]
[ Door Creaking ]
- We're trapped!
- Help! [ Screams ]
Will? Penny?
Look at this.
Will?
Penny?
[ Whistles ]
I guess they wandered into
another room. Come on.
[ Knocking ]
Shh. Listen.
- Will?
- [ Both ] We're here!
- [ Don ] Are you okay?
- Yeah. I'm all right.
[ Penny ]
But look, Don!
- The door is closing!
- We're trapped!
Earthquake!
- Don!
- Judy?
- Will?
- Don?
- [ Don ] John!
- Penny!
- Where are ya?
- John!
- Don!
- [ Shouting, Indistinct ]
- [ Don ] We're over here!
- [ Screeches ]
- Hold on. Hold on.
- Penny!
- Don!
- Penny!
- Don!
- [ Screeching ]
- We're here!
[ Will ]
We're here! We're here!
- Judy!
- Don!
- [ Don ] In here!
- [ Judy ] In here!
- Judy!
- Don!
- Stand back!
[ Indistinct Shouting ]
[ Maureen ]
Judy!
[ Judy And Penny Screech ]
[ Maureen ]
Judy!
[ Screaming Continues ]
[ Chittering ]
- All right! Push!
- Okay!
- Throw a hand to it!
- [ Penny, Will ] Hard!
[ John ]
Push it! Push it out!
Hurry up!
[ Screeching ]
[ John Thinking ]
December 5 in the year 2001.
The attack of the fearful
lightning bolts...
followed by the equally terrible
earthquake, frightened all of us.
We're still puzzled by
the strange signs of civilization...
we found in the cave.
Either this unknown planet
once sheltered human life...
or mysterious beings
still lurk in shadows...
watching us
this very minute.
Perhaps, one day, we will return
to the cave and learn more.
Right now, we feel lucky to be alive
and are bending every effort...
to reach the inland sea,
our last barrier to the great tropics--
that promises warmth
and peace.
- It's working!
- Let's see.
- Don, look! It's working!
- I told you you could do it.
Will, you'd better get back there
and fasten your seat belt.
Well, there it is--
the inland sea.
Hang on.
It's a long way across.
Come on, now, kids.
Sit down.
Penny, could you get me
one of those protein pills, please?
- Mom gave us the last one
before we started out.
- I'm sorry, dear.
- We have some coffee pills.
Shall I heat one for you?
- I'm not about to fall asleep.
Will, if we're not on Mars,
you tell us where we are.
I don't know for sure yet.
We might even be on Cerberus.
[ Thunderclap ]
- What's wrong?
- It won't respond!
[ Thunderclaps Continue ]
We're not
getting any power!
Must be a loose connection
to the solar batteries!
[ Chittering ]
- I'll go up and see if I can fix 'em.
- Now?
- We can't risk it.
- Have to. Without power, we'll capsize.
- It's too late! We're right in the middle of it!
- Doc, we can't wait!
John, you know
he's right.
All right. Go ahead.
I'll try to hold her steady.
Will, stand in the hatch
and hand me what I need.
Okay.
Judy, up front.
Take over the scope.
[ Thunderclap ]
Give me the solar wrench!
Give me the solar wrench!
Here it is!
Don!
We're heading straight
for a whirlpool!
Don says there's
a whirlpool up ahead.
Judy, check the scope.
See what it reads.
We have no choice!
We must cut to the left!
I can't move it!
- We've lost control!
- I've almost got it! Wait one minute!
One minute,
I've got it.
John, look!
There it is!
I can't even
get it into reverse.
[ Screaming ]
[ Indistinct Shouting, Screaming ]
[ Screams ]
- [ Screams ]
- Get Don back in here and close the hatch!
Don?
Don! Don!
He's gone.
He's gone!
- Don!
- Judy, stay here!
- Don!
- Can you handle these?
Don?
Don! Don!
Don!
Don!
- Don!
- Stop it!
- [ Yelps ]
- He's gone!
- [ Judy ] Don!
- He's gone!
- [ Judy ] Don!
- He's gone!
It's gotta let up soon.
Help!
- [ Rapping ]
- [ Don ] Help!
[ Judy ]
Don!
[ Judy ]
We thought you were dead. Oh, Don!
Not dead.
Just half-drowned.
Try the power unit again.
I managed to make a connection.
Maureen, check the scope
for the nearest landfall.
All right, everybody.
Hang on!
Here we go!
[ John Thinking ]
December 8 in the year 2001.
Our great adventure in the wild sea
is now happily behind us.
At last,
we've reached the tropics.
The weather is warm,
the vegetation lush...
and the stillness of the air
promises peaceful days.
Yet so much has happened in our
short stay on this strange planet...
that we take nothing
for granted.
We've experienced dangers
unknown by earthbound men.
We breathe easily now,
but only for the moment.
Our every instinct
tells us there are wild...
wonderful adventures
just ahead.

Ladies and gentlemen, today,
the first of what may be...
as many as 10 million families
per year...
is setting out on its epic voyage
into man's newest frontier...
for colonization: deep space.
Reaching out into other worlds from
our desperately overcrowded planet...
a series of deep-thrust telescopic

We are at six minutes,

Power has been restored
at our Bermuda tracking station...
six minutes, 30 seconds

The spaceship's electronic brain
will take over for the balance...
of the century-long
hibernation...
during which it will be traveling at
the almost unimaginable speed of light.
Here now is the Gemini 12, the culmination
of nearly 40 years of intensive research...
and the most sophisticated piece of
hardware yet devised by the mind of man.
Bold in concept,
brilliant in execution...
this most delicate,
yet most colossal of instruments...
makes possible man's thrust
into deep space...
and will,
in approximately five minutes...
set out on its quest
for a new world.
Heading the expedition
will be Dr. John Robinson...

With him, marking the first time in history
that anyone but an adult male has passed...
the International Space
Administration's grueling...

will be his wife,
Dr. Maureen Robinson...
the distinguished biochemist of the
New Mexico College of Space Medicine.
Their daughter, Judith, aged 19,
who has rather heroically postponed...
all hopes for a career
in the musical comedy field...
for the next two centuries,
at least.
Their son, Will, who recently was graduated
from the Camdo Canyon School of Science...
at the age of nine with the highest
average in the school's history.
And their daughter, Penny,
age 11, I.Q., 147...
hobby, zoology.
Their assistant,
Dr. Donald West...
graduate student from
the Center for Radio Astronomy...
is the same young man who last year
rocked the scientific world...
with his theory regarding other
planets' fitness for human habitation.

will put the Robinson family
in a state of limbo...
enabling them to make a lifetime flight
while aging but a second...

From this moment on, the
Family Robinson and their assistant...
are in a state of suspended animation,
which is to last for the next 98 years.

of the United States.
Fellow Americans,
friends all over the world...
upon the success
of this mission...
will depend whether the explosive
increase of population on this planet...
will ultimately lead to a disaster
from which none will be exempt...
or to a new dawn of plenty
for all of humanity.
None can predict the outcome of this
audacious venture to the very stars.
To those who have
staked their lives...
upon this bold expansion
of man's horizons...
I humbly say:
Go in peace.
The prayers of mankind
are with you.

Countdown minus
19 seconds and counting.
All systems are green
and go.
Countdown minus 10 seconds.
Eight, seven, six...
five, four, three...
two, one, zero.
Blastoff!
All systems here at Alpha Control
are green and go.
The trajectory
now profiles properly.
The spaceship
is climbing correctly to plan.
Is now passing the point
of maximum dynamic pressure.
If it holds its present attitude,
it will reach perfect orbit.
The fantastic acceleration needed to
break out of the Earth's gravity...
has apparently not affected the
well-being of our space travelers.
Here at Alpha Control, remote readings
appear normal with no indication of change.
Medical telemeters show
all members of the Robinson family...
are safe and well...
still in their total blackout of suspended
animation during this fantastic acceleration...
whose pressures would be
unbearable otherwise.
[ Computers Humming ]
An unpredicted rain of meteors traveling
at speeds of up to 25,000 miles an hour...
have converged in a giant elliptical form
a thousand miles in diameter...
immediately ahead
of the spaceship.
[ Beeping Rapidly ]
Gemini 12, traveling
at 18,400 miles per hour...
cannot be shifted fast enough in its preset
flight pattern to make total escape possible.
[ Electrical Arcing ]
[ Rapid Beeping ]
Gemini 12's fantastic ability
to regenerate its own damage controls...
is now the last hope
for the safety of the Robinson family...
and the success of the flight.
Heat telemeters
here at Alpha Control...
show an outbreak of fire in back
of all the controls in the spaceship.
Unless fire extinguishing
apparatus functions properly...
and control regeneration
occurs immediately...
all hope for the Gemini
is now gone.
[ Indistinct Whirring ]
- [ Humming ]
- Alpha Control's final analysis
on Gemini 12's flight...
indicates unhappily that the spaceship
has either been destroyed...
or must be presumed
lost in space.
[ Indistinct Whirring Continues ]
[ Crash ]
[ John Thinking ]
December 3 in the year 2001.
None of us knows for sure how long
we traveled in suspended animation.
Our atomic clock indicates three
and a half years, but we're not positive.
We do know for a fact that it is now
exactly six months since our landing...
on this unknown planet.
Thank heaven we survived
that terrible crash...
which completely
disabled the spaceship.
We are hopeful of its eventual repair
and our ability to use it again.
Meanwhile,
all goes reasonably well.
- [ Will ] Hey! Hey, come back here!
- We've established a base camp...
domesticated some of the local
animals and cultivated a small farm.
- Debbie.
- [ Will ] Hey, come on back!
- Come back here when I say,
"Come back here!"
- Children.
- Wait till Daddy gets home.
- Come back here!
Hey, come on.
Come back! Please? Come back!
- Mom, when are they coming home?
- Well, let's see.
They were due back
a half an hour ago.
- You don't think anything happened?
- Oh, no. Of course not.
I hope the instruments
are okay.
I hope the instruments
are okay.
This wind might
have smashed everything.
- The wind is stronger.
- It's getting colder.
[ Wind Whistling ]
Look at this thing.
By the day after tomorrow...
the temperature'll
drop 150 below zero.
- What'll we do?
- We're gonna have to head south, but fast.
Abandon the spaceship? What if it's
finally spotted by some passing rocket?
They'll televise the picture
back to Earth.
Oh, yeah. That's great. A picture
showing no signs of life, no survivors.
Don, I'd rather not be found at all if I had
to be picked up by a pair of ice tongs.
Come on.
Let's get out of here.
You don't suppose
we could just button up the hatches...
and stick it out
inside the spaceship, do ya?
We'd freeze to death. Take my word for it.
Even if we could insulate well enough...
the solar batteries
would never stand the drain.
- It's moving day, Dr. West.
- Wait a minute.
There's one gauge we oughta check...
just to see
how much time we do have.
Look.
That... couldn't be.
It is.
A footprint.
Not of a man.
Of a something
that walks on two feet.
Only five times as big as anything
we ever thought of as human.
Giants?
Come on, Doc.
Let's go. I don't want to leave the family
alone a second longer than necessary.
[ Growling ]
[ Gasping ]
I don't believe it.
- Neither do I. But let's get out of here.
- [ Creature Grunts ]
Don!
[ Electrical Arcing ]
- [ Chuckling ] How's it coming?
- Pretty good.
[ Sighs ]
- Don't pick too many, dear.
- [ Judy ] I won't, Mother.
[ Beeping ]
Hey, Mom,
I got it working!
- What?
- The radio telescope.
- Did you locate Dad?
- I'm not so sure.
- Can't you talk to him?
- I've got a picture. No sound.
What do you see?
- See something?
- [ Groans ]
Holy cow, it is!
A giant!
Let me look again.
[ Exhales ]
- Did either of them take a gun with them?
- What's wrong?
- What is it?
- I don't know yet.
Well, then,
why are you talking about guns?
Mom, we've got to do something.
They'll be killed if we don't.
Now, Judy, please. Just calm down.
There's nothing we can do except wait.
- Oh, yes, there is.
- Will.
Will, you come back here,
you hear me? Will!
- Will!
- Will!
There's no other way out.
I'd better
take another look.
- No! Wait!
- Wait for what? Till we starve to death?
We're safe in here. If we get him any
madder, he'll tear this mountain apart.
Sorry, Doc.
[ Low Growling ]
[ Screeches ]
- Guess I didn't help matters much, did I?
- We know he can feel pain.
Yeah. And he knows
we're hiding in here.
[ Continues Growling ]
Look out!
[ Roars ]
[ Screeches ]
[ Will ]
Dad! Dad!
Will! Will!
- Dad!
- Will!
Dad, I killed the giant!
I killed him!
You sure did.
Will... what
are you doin' here?
I saw you in trouble
over the scope, so I--
So you thought
you'd come and save us?
And you did save us. Now, I want you to
promise me something on your word of honor.
- Yes, sir.
- When I tell you to stay
and protect the family...
don't you ever leave
your post again, understand?
If we're gonna survive, we must follow
orders. And that goes for all of us.
There may be
other giants around.
Here.
Put this on.
There you go.
Ah. Not as big
as you thought you were, huh?
- Uh-uh.
- All right. Let's move.
Come on.
Come on, kids. Keep movin'. I want us
out of here in the next five minutes.
[ Wind Whistling ]
- Let's go. I want us to get out
of here as quickly as we can.
- All right.
Children.
Come on, now. Let's go.
Will, where's Penny?
Where's your sister?
She was riding on the turtle, she and the Bloop.
Then all of a sudden, she was gone.
- Where did she go?
- I don't know. I turned around,
and she wasn't there anymore.
- Ohh.
- Don't worry. I'll find her.
Ohh. Penny!
Penny! Penny!
Listen, Don. When that blizzard hits,
which may be sooner than we expect...
the temperature's gonna drop about
60 degrees in less than half an hour.
The moment it hits 10 below, I want you
to take off by way of the inland sea.
Wouldn't we be better off
going by land?
We'd have to go through
the giants' valley, and that's too risky...
especially after that close call
we had this morning.
- Doc, I'm not gonna take off without you.
- Whether I come back or not.
[ Engine Revving ]
Don't worry.
[ Wind Whistling ]
I'm cold.
If I catch pneumonia from this...
they're never ever gonna
let me play with either of you again.
I knew turtles were stubborn, but I thought
you'd have more sense than to run away.
Now we're all lost.
[ Debbie Chittering ]
Hey, come back here! We'd better stick
together, or none of us will get home.
Come on, Debbie.
Come on. Good girl.
Oh, Daddy!
Daddy.
Daddy! Daddy!
- Oh, Daddy, I was so frightened.
- It's all right.
- There's nothing to be frightened of.
It's all right.
- Oh, I'm cold.
I'll bet you are.
Nine below. One more degree,
and they'll leave without us.
- Come on. Piggyback.
- Come on, Debbie. Come on.
- Come on.
- Come on.
- Come on.
- All right?
- Yeah.
- Okay. Hang on, now.
Okay.
[ Debbie Chittering ]
[ Chittering Continues ]
- How do you like it?
- Oh, it's great.
- How's the Bloop?
- Oh, fine.
It won't be long.
- Will?
- [ Will ] Coming!
I had to
get my tester.
[ Maureen ]
Okay, dear. In you go.
We can't leave without Daddy
and Penny. We just can't!
- We have to. We'll all die if we don't.
- Don, please.
- Just a few more minutes.
- You think I like to leave without them?
When Dr. Robinson said 10 below zero,
he didn't just pick a number out of a hat.
That's the deadline, with the emphasis
on "dead," if we don't stick to it.
No! No! I'm not leaving without them.
Don't start the motor! I'm warning you!
Oh, Judy,
please stop it!
We're not going
without them!
Mom, look!
[ Exhales ]
Don, take the gun hatch
just in case.
[ Roaring ]
[ Continues Roaring ]
[ John ]
Don, fire!
[ Gunfire ]
[ Screeches ]
[ Chittering ]
[ Chittering Continues ]
I wonder how cold it is
back at the spaceship now.
- Too cold.
- Oh, no.
- What's the matter?
- Those big boulders didn't
do the power unit any good.
- How long to fix?
- A couple hours, anyway.
I don't know how safe it is,
but we'd better camp here.
## [ Will On Guitar ]
How are you ever gonna dress like
a lady if you don't hold still? Ohh.
- I'm glad Dad decided to camp here.
- Yeah.
All the comforts of home.
Home was never like this.
- Mom, Dad, betcha don't know what I saw.
- What?
Judy and Don. He was
kissing her on the hand like this.
Bet he picked up
a million germs.
Bet he picked up
a million germs.
Well, Penny, dear, young people
sometimes have ways of doing things...
which, to wiser heads
such as you and I...
may seem a little strange.
In other words,
I should mind my own business?
- That's right.
- I thought so.
[ Laughing ]
I do find it hard to think of Judy
as anything but a child.
Well, considering
the population implosion up here...
we can't very well ask her
to play the field, now, can we?
No. That's right.
Now I know the one scientific specialty
we didn't bring from Earth.
- What's that?
- A marriage counselor.
- For them?
- Who else?
[ Thunderclap ]
- Power D-F.
- Powering One-W now.
[ Electrical Arcing ]
- Try W-Two.
- W-Two.
- [ Thunderclap ]
- [ John ] We must find a cave for protection.
We'll be killed if we don't.
Seat belts on, huh?
- [ Maureen ] They're all set.
- I'll switch when clear, Doc.
[ John ]
All right. Hold it steady, then.
[ Thunderclaps ]
What kind of a place
is this?
[ Judy ]
Well, it looks like a big cave.
Let's take a look.
- [ Penny ] It's a city!
- There are no cities out here,
for cryin' out loud.
- Then what is it?
- Some sort of geological accident.
How do I know? Ask Don.
My field's electronics.
Well, pardon me.
- It looks almost like some sort of a--
- A kind of a castle.
You don't suppose
there's somebody still living here?
- [ Thunderclaps Continue ]
- We'll soon find out. Don, save the flares.
- We'll need 'em later.
- I'll get the flashlights.
Debbie.
Come on, Debbie.
We'll see if it's safe enough
to spend the night.
- Stay with us, now.
- Now, watch this.
- Lights?
- Yeah. Here.
- [ Don ] Will.
- [ Will ] Here.
Thank you.
Everybody all right
back there?
[ Debbie Chittering ]
Debbie, where are you?
Debbie?
Debbie?
Are you in here?
Debbie? Debbie!
Debbie, where are you?
Hey, Penny!
Penny, come on out!
Penny?
- Debbie?
- Hey, Penny!
- Will, Debbie's gone!
- You women are always gettin' lost.
Debbie! Debbie,
where are you?
Are you here?
- Hey, look. Pictures.
- We have no time for those.
- I've got to find Debbie.
- Wow.
- Debbie!
- Penny, help!
[ Screeches ]
Will, are you hurt?
- Stop fussing. I'm all right.
- Then get up.
- Where are we?
- I don't know.
[ Screams ]
[ Door Creaking ]
- We're trapped!
- Help! [ Screams ]
Will? Penny?
Look at this.
Will?
Penny?
[ Whistles ]
I guess they wandered into
another room. Come on.
[ Knocking ]
Shh. Listen.
- Will?
- [ Both ] We're here!
- [ Don ] Are you okay?
- Yeah. I'm all right.
[ Penny ]
But look, Don!
- The door is closing!
- We're trapped!
Earthquake!
- Don!
- Judy?
- Will?
- Don?
- [ Don ] John!
- Penny!
- Where are ya?
- John!
- Don!
- [ Shouting, Indistinct ]
- [ Don ] We're over here!
- [ Screeches ]
- Hold on. Hold on.
- Penny!
- Don!
- Penny!
- Don!
- [ Screeching ]
- We're here!
[ Will ]
We're here! We're here!
- Judy!
- Don!
- [ Don ] In here!
- [ Judy ] In here!
- Judy!
- Don!
- Stand back!
[ Indistinct Shouting ]
[ Maureen ]
Judy!
[ Judy And Penny Screech ]
[ Maureen ]
Judy!
[ Screaming Continues ]
[ Chittering ]
- All right! Push!
- Okay!
- Throw a hand to it!
- [ Penny, Will ] Hard!
[ John ]
Push it! Push it out!
Hurry up!
[ Screeching ]
[ John Thinking ]
December 5 in the year 2001.
The attack of the fearful
lightning bolts...
followed by the equally terrible
earthquake, frightened all of us.
We're still puzzled by
the strange signs of civilization...
we found in the cave.
Either this unknown planet
once sheltered human life...
or mysterious beings
still lurk in shadows...
watching us
this very minute.
Perhaps, one day, we will return
to the cave and learn more.
Right now, we feel lucky to be alive
and are bending every effort...
to reach the inland sea,
our last barrier to the great tropics--
that promises warmth
and peace.
- It's working!
- Let's see.
- Don, look! It's working!
- I told you you could do it.
Will, you'd better get back there
and fasten your seat belt.
Well, there it is--
the inland sea.
Hang on.
It's a long way across.
Come on, now, kids.
Sit down.
Penny, could you get me
one of those protein pills, please?
- Mom gave us the last one
before we started out.
- I'm sorry, dear.
- We have some coffee pills.
Shall I heat one for you?
- I'm not about to fall asleep.
Will, if we're not on Mars,
you tell us where we are.
I don't know for sure yet.
We might even be on Cerberus.
[ Thunderclap ]
- What's wrong?
- It won't respond!
[ Thunderclaps Continue ]
We're not
getting any power!
Must be a loose connection
to the solar batteries!
[ Chittering ]
- I'll go up and see if I can fix 'em.
- Now?
- We can't risk it.
- Have to. Without power, we'll capsize.
- It's too late! We're right in the middle of it!
- Doc, we can't wait!
John, you know
he's right.
All right. Go ahead.
I'll try to hold her steady.
Will, stand in the hatch
and hand me what I need.
Okay.
Judy, up front.
Take over the scope.
[ Thunderclap ]
Give me the solar wrench!
Give me the solar wrench!
Here it is!
Don!
We're heading straight
for a whirlpool!
Don says there's
a whirlpool up ahead.
Judy, check the scope.
See what it reads.
We have no choice!
We must cut to the left!
I can't move it!
- We've lost control!
- I've almost got it! Wait one minute!
One minute,
I've got it.
John, look!
There it is!
I can't even
get it into reverse.
[ Screaming ]
[ Indistinct Shouting, Screaming ]
[ Screams ]
- [ Screams ]
- Get Don back in here and close the hatch!
Don?
Don! Don!
He's gone.
He's gone!
- Don!
- Judy, stay here!
- Don!
- Can you handle these?
Don?
Don! Don!
Don!
Don!
- Don!
- Stop it!
- [ Yelps ]
- He's gone!
- [ Judy ] Don!
- He's gone!
- [ Judy ] Don!
- He's gone!
It's gotta let up soon.
Help!
- [ Rapping ]
- [ Don ] Help!
[ Judy ]
Don!
[ Judy ]
We thought you were dead. Oh, Don!
Not dead.
Just half-drowned.
Try the power unit again.
I managed to make a connection.
Maureen, check the scope
for the nearest landfall.
All right, everybody.
Hang on!
Here we go!
[ John Thinking ]
December 8 in the year 2001.
Our great adventure in the wild sea
is now happily behind us.
At last,
we've reached the tropics.
The weather is warm,
the vegetation lush...
and the stillness of the air
promises peaceful days.
Yet so much has happened in our
short stay on this strange planet...
that we take nothing
for granted.
We've experienced dangers
unknown by earthbound men.
We breathe easily now,
but only for the moment.
Our every instinct
tells us there are wild...
wonderful adventures
just ahead.
