Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964–1968): Season 3, Episode 10 - Deadly Invasion - full transcript
Space aliens lead by a entity which takes the form of deceased WW2 officer acquaintance of Nelson invade the Seaview with purpose of reactivating an underwater atomic base to acquire its energy.
WE'VE GOT ANOTHER WARNING
FROM THE PACIFIC
TRACKING STATION.
THE SECOND METEOR SHOWER
IS DUE TO HIT WITHIN
THE NEXT FOUR MINUTES.
PLOT SIX ON THE MAP.
HOW CLOSE WILL IT BE?
LET'S SEE, UH...
UH, WITHIN A MILE OR TWO.
TAKE HER UP TO 90 FEET.
TEN DEGREE UP BUBBLE.
LEVEL OFF AT 90 FEET.
ACTIVATE SAIL CAMERA.
I WANT CONTINUAL SKY SEARCH
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
PIPE IT THROUGH
THE NOSE MONITOR.
[ Man On Speaker ] AYE, SIR.
TWENTY SECONDS.
THERE THEY ARE,
RIGHT ON TIME.
SEVEN OF THEM.
NO. NO, EIGHT OF THEM.
KOWALSKI, DO YOU
HAVE THESE METEORS
ON YOUR SCREEN?
YES, SIR.
LOCKED ON AND TRACKING.
IMPACT IN ONE MINUTE,
TWO AND ONE-HALF MILES
DUE WEST OF US.
THEY'RE CHANGING COURSE.
DIVE! ALL DIVE!
THE METEORS HAVE CHANGED COURSE.
WILL IMPACT ON SEAVIEW
IN 15 SECONDS.
[ Klaxon Blaring ]
CLOSE CRASH DOORS!
[ Crashing ]
BLOW STARBOARD TANKS.
TRIM SHIP.
[ Man On Speaker ]
BLOWING STARBOARD TANKS
AND TRIMMING.
DAMAGE CONTROL, REPORT.
WE SHOW SEVERAL PENETRATIONS
BY SMALL OBJECTS.
AUTOMATIC HULL REPAIR
NOW SEALING ALL PUNCTURES.
NO APPARENT
INTERNAL DAMAGE.
VERY WELL.
ADMIRAL, HERE'S ONE
OF THOSE THINGAMAJIGS
THAT HIT US.
I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A SHELL,
BUT THERE'S NO MARKINGS ON IT.
- YOU HAVEN'T HANDLED IT, CHIEF?
- OH, NO. NOT ME, SIR.
STAND BACK!
[ Coughing ]
[ Man ]
VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA.
STARRING RICHARD BASEHART,
DAVID HEDISON.
VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM
OF THE SEA.
[ Coughing ]
CHIEF? CHIEF, COME ON.
GIVE ME A HAND.
[ Coughing Continues ]
THAT'S IT.
MURRAY, TAKE OVER.
IS HE BADLY HURT?
POSSIBLE CONCUSSION.
RON, MARK...
GET HIM TO SICK BAY.
[ Coughs, Clears Throat ]
WE... WE DON'T KNOW
WHAT OTHER EFFECTS THAT...
THAT SMOKE MIGHT HAVE.
THIS IS THE CAPTAIN.
I WANT ALL HANDS
TO BE ON THE LOOKOUT...
FOR ANY OBJECTS THAT LOOK LIKE
75 MILLIMETER SHELLS.
REPORT YOUR FINDINGS TO
THE CONTROL ROOM IMMEDIATELY.
LOOK AT THIS.
- THE OPENING'S GONE.
- AH. BETTER GET THIS
TO THE LAB AND EXAMINE IT.
TAKE THE CONN, CHIP.
AYE, SIR.
[ Man On Speaker ]
CONTROL ROOM!
GO AHEAD.
REPAIR TEAM BAKER.
BROKEN STEAM PIPE
IN ENGINE ROOM.
STARTING REPAIRS NOW.
- HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?
- FIFTEEN MINUTES SHOULD DO IT.
REPORT WHEN YOU'RE THROUGH.
AYE, SIR.
[ Crane On Speaker ] CONTROL
ROOM, THIS IS THE CAPTAIN.
CONTROL ROOM, AYE.
WE'RE IN THE LAB NOW,
AND WE'RE GOING TO TRY
TO OPEN THE CYLINDER.
WE'VE LOCKED THE LAB DOORS
FOR SAFETY.
NOW, THE MIKE'LL BE LEFT OPEN
SO YOU CAN HEAR WHAT'S
HAPPENING, JUST IN CASE.
VERY WELL.
THAT DIAMOND DRILL
DOESN'T EVEN SCRATCH IT.
BEFORE WE GO ANY FURTHER,
I THINK WE'D BETTER REPORT
WHAT WE'VE FOUND.
GET ME GENERAL HAINES,
NATIONAL SPACE ADMINISTRATION,
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
[ Coughing ]
CONTROL ROOM!
[ Coughs ]
CONTROL ROOM!
REPAIR TEAM BAKER, COME IN.
ENGINE ROOM, COME IN.
DAMAGE CONTROL,
CHECK THE ENGINE ROOM,
ON THE DOUBLE.
WELL, IT'S IMPERVIOUS
TO ACIDS TOO.
WELL, WHAT ABOUT HEAT?
A CUTTING TORCH OR
THE ELECTRIC FURNACE?
WELL, IT JUST SURVIVED
A PLUNGE THROUGH
THE EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE...
AT SPEEDS THAT WOULD BURN
OUR BEST METALS TO CINDERS.
MMM. IF WE CAN'T OPEN IT,
LET'S HAVE A LOOK INSIDE.
I'LL GET THE X-RAY MACHINE.
OH.
PATTERSON,
YOU ALL RIGHT?
[ Coughs ]
YOU OKAY?
[ Coughs ]
WHAT HAPPENED?
OH. THAT'S WHAT
I'D LIKE TO KNOW.
[ Electricity Crackling ]
- THIS IS CHIEF SHARKEY
TO CONTROL ROOM.
- GO AHEAD.
SOMETHING CAME OUT OF
THESE CYLINDERS IN THE, UH...
THE ENGINE ROOM, SIR.
WAS IT GAS?
NO, IT WAS, UH, SOME KIND
OF AN ELECTRICAL ARC
OR SOMETHING.
[ Coughs ]
[ Humming ]
[ Humming Stops ]
ALL RIGHT, LET'S HAVE
A LOOK AT THAT PLATE.
ALL RIGHT.
HUH. NOTHING.
THE RAYS DIDN'T PENETRATE.
YEAH. WELL, WE'LL HAVE
TO TRY SOMETHING ELSE.
[ Electricity Crackling ]
WHAT WAS THAT?
WELL, IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL
DISCHARGE OF SOME KIND.
LIKE IT HIT
THAT SWITCH OVER THERE.
NO DAMAGE. AND IT HIT
LIKE A THUNDERBOLT.
LEE, CAN YOU GIVE ME
THAT MAGNIFYING GLASS?
YEAH.
LOOK AT THIS.
HUH?
INSTRUMENTATION.
IT'S A MINIATURE SPACESHIP.
[ Sighs ]
WHAT ABOUT THAT CALL
TO GENERAL HAINES?
I'LL ALERT SPARKS.
YEAH. YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT,
GENERAL.
APPARENTLY, WE'RE BEING INVADED
BY SOME KIND OF ELECTRICAL
ENERGY FROM OUTER SPACE.
THEY ARRIVED IN
MINIATURE SPACESHIPS.
[ On Intercom ] ARE YOU SURE,
NELSON? WE TRACKED AND RECORDED
THEM HERE AS METEORITES.
NOT TRUE, GENERAL.
THEY'RE COMPLETE
WITH INSTRUMENTATION.
UH, TWO GROUPS OF THEM
HIT THE OCEAN NOT A MILE
FROM EACH OTHER.
COULD BE
AN EXPLORATORY PROBE, A...
A SPACE TRAVEL EXPEDITION.
I STILL THINK IT'S AN INVASION.
WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
BECAUSE THEY LANDED WITHIN
100 MILES OF SATO NUMBER SIX.
- SATO SIX? ARE YOU SURE?
- LOOK, WE'RE IN THE AREA.
BUT SATO SIX HAS
BEEN DECOMMISSIONED
FOR MORE THAN A YEAR.
BUT IT'S STILL
OUR LARGEST RESERVE
UNDERWATER ATOMIC BASE.
AND YOU KNOW VERY WELL IT CAN BE
REACTIVATED WITHIN 12 HOURS.
- COULD BE COINCIDENCE.
- [ Sighs ]
I STILL THINK
WE SHOULD INVESTIGATE.
I AGREE. WE'LL SEND OUT
THE RED ALERTS FROM HERE.
AND YOU'D BETTER GET THAT
MINIATURE SPACESHIP TO US
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
IT'LL BE ON ITS WAY
WITHIN 10 MINUTES.
- CONTROL ROOM.
- YES, ADMIRAL.
UH, GENERAL HAINES WANTS
THE MINIATURE SPACESHIP. USE
THE FLYING SUB TO GET IT TO HIM.
THEN SET YOUR COURSE
FOR SATO NUMBER SIX,
FLANK SPEED.
AYE, SIR.
AND, UH...
[ Chuckles ]
WELL, I'LL BE IN MY CABIN.
PREPARE THE FLYING SUB
FOR IMMEDIATE LAUNCH.
AYE, SIR.
COURSE 1-8-7, FULL SPEED.
[ Man ]
AYE, SIR.
WHAT THE...
SAM GARRITY.
HELLO, HARRY.
WELL, THIS IS
IMPOSSIBLE.
IT'S... IT'S GOOD
TO SEE YOU, SAM.
SAME HERE, HARRY.
[ Laughs ]
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
AND HOW DID YOU
GET ABOARD SEAVIEW
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OCEAN?
WELL, I DIDN'T.
SEE, I, UH...
I WANTED TO BE WITH YOU
ON THIS MISSION.
THERE WASN'T TIME TO GO
THROUGH CHANNELS, SO, UH,
I STOWED AWAY
BEFORE YOU SAILED.
OH, OH, OH.
WELL, NOW WAIT A MINUTE, SAM.
YOU'RE LEAVING OUT
AN AWFULLY BIG CHUNK OF TIME.
WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
YOUR PLANE WAS SHOT DOWN
IN FLAMES. YOU'VE BEEN REPORTED
MISSING IN ACTION...
AND PRESUMED DEAD FOR,
UH, OH, 27 YEARS.
OBVIOUSLY,
AN ERRONEOUS PRESUMPTION.
OH, THE, UH, DEPARTMENT'S
BEEN KEEPING ME UNDER WRAPS.
I'VE BEEN DOING UNDERCOVER WORK.
OH. OH, OH. WELL, YEAH.
[ Chuckles ]
WELL, THAT-THAT MUST
HAVE BEEN INTERESTING.
AND, UM, HOW'D PEGGY
FEEL ABOUT THAT?
OH, UH, SHE DOESN'T MIND.
SHE UNDERSTANDS.
- MMM. YEAH, SHE'S
AN UNDERSTANDING WIFE.
- OH, INDEED, SHE IS.
I THINK I'M BEGINNING
TO UNDERSTAND SOMETHING TOO.
WHAT'S THAT, HARRY?
THAT YOU'RE NOT SAM GARRITY.
HE'S DEAD.
WELL, THAT'S NONSENSE.
YOU SEE ME.
I SEE YOU. I ALSO SEE
A WORLD WAR II UNIFORM.
I SEE A MAN OF 40
WHO SHOULD BE IN HIS 70s.
I SEE A MAN WHO CLAIMS
A WIFE NAMED PEGGY,
BUT SAM GARRITY NEVER MARRIED.
WHAT, UH...
WHAT ELSE DO YOU SEE, HARRY?
I BELIEVE I SEE SOMEONE
WHO CAME HERE IN ONE OF
THOSE MINIATURE SPACESHIPS...
AND ASSUMED
GARRITY'S APPEARANCE.
"NAVAL HISTORY OF WORLD WAR II."
AH, LET'S SEE NOW.
THAT PICTURE OF SAM
WAS TAKEN THE DAY
HE GOT HIS SECOND STAR.
THAT'S ALMOST 10 YEARS
BEFORE HE DIED.
YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT, DID YOU?
THAT'S WHY YOU MADE THE MISTAKE
OF ASSUMING THE IMAGE
OF THIS PHOTOGRAPH.
WHAT IF I, UH, INSIST
THAT I AM SAM GARRITY?
WELL, THEN YOU'LL UNDERSTAND
THAT I HAVE TO PUT YOU UNDER
ARREST UNTIL WE CAN BE SURE.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
[ Electricity Crackling ]
[ Electricity Crackling ]
THE FLYING SUB'S
LAUNCHED AND AIRBORNE.
GENERAL HAINES WILL HAVE
THE MINIATURE SPACESHIPS
IN A MATTER OF MINUTES.
- GOOD.
- SKIPPER!
WHAT'S WRONG?
THE COMPUTER'S FLIPPED.
I DON'T KNOW.
IT JUST STARTED
ALL BY ITSELF.
WELL, TURN IT OFF.
I CAN'T, SIR. I TRIED.
IT WON'T STOP.
LISTEN TO THIS.
TWO PLUS TWO,
WEATHER REPORT.
THREE TIMES ONE,
ANOTHER WEATHER REPORT.
COURSE AND SPEED,
DISTANCE TO THE MOON.
ADMIRAL.
ADMIRAL, COME IN, PLEASE.
CHIP, YOU'D BETTER
SEE WHAT'S WRONG.
ARE YOU HURT, SIR?
[ Grunting ]
I SEEM TO BE
ALL RIGHT. I...
J-JUST STUNNED,
I GUESS.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
I DON'T KNOW, SIR.
ALL SORTS OF WEIRD THINGS.
LEE, WHAT'S HAPPENING?
COME IN.
I DON'T KNOW.
THE CONTROLS ARE ACTING UP.
WE'RE OFF COURSE.
BE RIGHT THERE.
CAPTAIN, ROCK FORMATIONS
DEAD AHEAD.
ACTIVATE NOSE CAMERA.
[ Man On Speaker ]
AYE, SIR.
HARD RIGHT RUDDER!
CHIEF!
SKIPPER, THE CONTROLS
ARE LOCKED!
[ Grunting ]
SHE JUST WON'T BUDGE,
SIR.
ROCKS AHEAD.
COLLISION COURSE.
ENGINE ROOM,
CUT ALL POWER.
[ Patterson On Speaker ]
CUT ALL POWER. DEAD STOP.
AYE, SIR.
LEE!
CLOSE CRASH DOORS.
STAND BY FOR COLLISION.
DAMAGE CONTROL, REPORT.
[ Man On Speaker ] MINOR DAMAGE
TO THE HULL IN SECTION C-53.
REPAIR CREWS AT WORK.
ALL RIGHT. CARRY ON.
FROZEN CONTROLS.
WHAT'S THE ANSWER?
THE ELECTRICAL BEINGS IN
THE MINIATURE SPACESHIP.
WITH THE POWER OFF,
WILL THEY REMAIN INACTIVE?
POSSIBLY. POSSIBLY.
SKIPPER, WE'RE AT
A DEPTH OF 3,060 FEET.
THAT'S CRUSH DEPTH.
I'VE GOT TO RESUME POWER.
YOU CAN TRY.
SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
RESUME ALL POWER,
ALL LINES.
[ Patterson On Speaker ]
ACTIVATING NORMAL POWER
TO ALL LINES.
WHAT ABOUT THE CONTROLS, CHIEF?
THEY'RE WORKING NOW, SIR.
[ Sighs ]
OPEN CRASH DOORS.
[ Man On Speaker ]
AYE, SIR.
BLOW ALL BALLAST TANKS.
RESUME CRUISE DEPTH.
- RESUME COURSE AND SPEED.
- AYE, AYE, SIR.
[ Sighs ]
THESE, UH...
THESE ELECTRICAL ENTITIES...
NOW, WHAT DO YOU THINK
THEY WANT FROM US?
SATO SIX.
IT MAKES SENSE.
IF THEY CAN CONTROL
ALL THAT ATOMIC POWER,
THEY CAN CONTROL THE WORLD.
I WONDER IF THEY'RE STILL
WITH US, OR WHETHER CUTTING
THE POWER FINISHED THEM OFF.
WELL, EITHER WAY, AS SOON
AS THE FLYING SUB RETURNS,
I'M GONNA TAKE A COMBAT PARTY
AND GO OUT TO THE INSTALLATION.
IF THEY'RE THERE, I'LL TRY
TO ACTIVATE THE SELF-DESTRUCT
AND DESTROY THE REACTOR.
IF THEY ARE THERE,
IT COULD JUST WORK
THE OTHER WAY AROUND TOO.
IN THAT CASE,
USE NUCLEAR TORPEDOES
AND BLAST SATO SIX.
NELSON TO SEAVIEW.
COME IN, SEAVIEW.
[ Crane On Speaker ]
SEAVIEW. GO AHEAD, ADMIRAL.
TEST SIGNAL TO LAUNCH
NUCLEAR TORPEDOES.
[ Beeping ]
READ YOU LOUD AND CLEAR.
FIRING SIGNAL IS OPERATIONAL.
VERY WELL.
OVER AND OUT.
[ Clears Throat ]
ADMIRAL, SIR, QUESTION.
YEAH?
[ Clears Throat ]
WHEN YOU PUSH
THE DESTRUCT SIGNAL,
CAPTAIN CRANE WILL FIRE TWO
TORPEDOES WITH NUCLEAR WARHEADS
AT, UH, SATO NUMBER SIX, RIGHT?
- THAT'S RIGHT.
- UH, BUT YOU WON'T PUSH IT...
UNLESS THOSE
SPOOKS HAVE GOT US IN A BIND
AND WE CAN'T GET OUT OF IT?
NO. RIGHT AGAIN.
NOW, UM, IF WE GET INTO A BIND
AND WE CAN'T GET LOOSE,
AND YOU DO PUSH
THE DESTRUCT SIGNAL,
AND CAPTAIN CRANE DOES
FIRE THE TORPEDOES,
WHAT I'D LIKE TO KNOW, SIR,
IS, UH, HOW DO WE GET OUT?
OH, YOU DON'T HAVE
TO WORRY ABOUT THAT.
NO?
NO, NO. WE DON'T GET OUT.
THAT'S WHAT I WAS AFRAID OF.
[ Sighs ]
WE MUST BE CLOSE.
WE'RE RIGHT ON IT, SIR.
ABEAM OF US TO STARBOARD.
ALL RIGHT,
WE'RE GOING IN.
AH, CHECK THIS.
WHAT DO WE DO IF
THE CREATURES ARE HERE?
WE DESTROY THE ATOMIC REACTOR...
ONE OF US OR ALL OF US...
WHOEVER CAN GET TO IT.
HOW DO YOU DESTROY THE REACTOR
WITHOUT BLOWING UP
THE WHOLE INSTALLATION?
PULL A SINGLE LEVER.
PULL A RED LEVER,
ON THE START BOARD, FULL DOWN.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO.
NELSON TO SEAVIEW.
[ Crane ]
SEAVIEW. GO AHEAD, ADMIRAL.
THEY'RE HERE.
HEAT, LIGHT AND VENTILATION
HAVE BEEN TURNED ON.
IF YOU DON'T HEAR
FROM ME IN 10 MINUTES,
BLOW UP THE INSTALLATION.
LEE? LEE, DO YOU HEAR ME?
I, UH...
I HEAR YOU, ADMIRAL, UH...
UH, BUT, UM, LOOK, UH...
CALL IN, OKAY?
YEAH, YEAH.
OVER AND OUT.
THESE THREE CORRIDORS LEAD
TO THE MASTER CONTROL ROOM.
WE'LL USE THEM ALL IN CASE
ONE OF 'EM IS BLOCKED.
PETERS, YOU TAKE THE FIRST ONE.
CHIEF, YOU AND KELLY THE SECOND.
AND I'LL USE THIS ONE.
[ Electricity Crackling ]
[ Electricity Crackling
Continues ]
[ Electricity Crackling Stops ]
[ Footsteps Approaching ]
STAND BACK.
[ Gunshot ]
[ Gunshot ]
DOWN HERE!
WHAT HAPPENED?
HE'S DEAD.
THERE'S NO SIGN OF A WOUND.
WE'LL COME BACK FOR HIM.
LET'S GO ON.
GENTLEMEN, HOLD YOUR FIRE.
I MEAN YOU NO HARM.
SAM GARRITY AGAIN.
YES, I RATHER LIKE
THE APPEARANCE.
WHO ARE YOU, REALLY?
AND WHAT DO YOU WANT?
FAIR QUESTIONS.
WE'RE FROM A FAR EDGE
OF THE GALAXY... WAYFARERS...
STOPPING HERE ONLY BRIEFLY
TO REPLENISH OURSELVES.
MM-HMM. REPLENISH YOURSELVES
WITH WHAT?
ENERGY.
YOUR INSTALLATION HERE CAN
SUPPLY US WITH ALL WE NEED.
ONCE WE HAVE IT,
WE'LL CONTINUE ON OUR WAY.
BUT YOU NEED ME TO START UP
THE INSTALLATION.
YES. IN LOOKING
THROUGH YOUR MIND,
I FIND THAT YOU'RE ONE OF
SIX MEN IN YOUR WORLD WHO
KNOWS THE CORRECT COMBINATION.
I ALSO KNOW THAT
ANY INCORRECT SETTING
WILL DESTROY THE GENERATOR.
BUT THE CORRECT SETTING IS,
UH, WELL HIDDEN IN YOUR MIND.
I COULDN'T READ IT.
NOW, I HAVE EVERYTHING ELSE,
BUT I NEED THE KEY SETTING.
WILL YOU START
THE INSTALLATION FOR US?
NO.
THERE'S ENOUGH POWER HERE
TO DESTROY THE HUMAN RACE
IF IT WERE TURNED AGAINST US.
- BUT WE'RE FRIENDLY.
- WELL, I'M VERY PLEASED
TO HEAR THAT.
NOW, PERHAPS, AFTER WE'VE KNOWN
EACH OTHER BETTER, AND YOU'VE
REALLY DEMONSTRATED FRIENDSHIP,
WE'LL BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU
ALL THE ENERGY YOU NEED.
BUT THAT WOULD TAKE TIME,
AND WE MUST LEAVE SOON.
THEN I'M SORRY. I, UH...
I CAN'T ACT ON
MY OWN INITIATIVE.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
YOU PEOPLE ARE
NOT FRIENDLY.
YOU WOULD DESTROY
THE GENERATOR FIRST
AND TALK LATER.
NOW, I COMMAND YOU
TO START THE POWER.
- I REFUSE.
- WELL, YOU WILL START IT.
WILLINGLY OR NOT,
YOU WILL START IT.
YOU HAVE NO CHOICE.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
[ High-pitched Humming Stops ]
[ Beeping ]
THE DESTRUCT SIGNAL.
COULD BE AN ACCIDENT. HE'LL
COUNTERMAND IT IN A MOMENT.
WE STILL HAVE
A DIRECT ORDER:
DESTROY SATO SIX
WITH NUCLEAR TORPEDOES.
AND KILL THE ADMIRAL?
MISSILE ROOM.
[ Man On Speaker ]
MISSILE ROOM, AYE.
LOAD NUCLEAR WARHEAD
TORPEDOES.
AYE, AYE, SIR.
COME TO DEPTH 1-5-0,
COURSE 2-6-5, FULL AHEAD.
AYE, SIR.
LOWER AWAY TORPEDOES.
LOWERING
TORPEDOES.
I DON'T GET IT, SKI.
WHAT'S TO GET?
WE GOT OUR ORDERS.
WE FOLLOW 'EM OUT.
YEAH.
BUT NUCLEAR TORPEDOES.
WHAT'S THE TARGET?
YOU GOT THAT FIGURED OUT
AS WELL AS I HAVE.
IT'S GOTTA BE SATO SIX.
SURE.
BUT YOU KNOW THE SCOOP ON THAT.
THE ADMIRAL'S IN THERE.
SO ARE SHARKEY,
KELLY AND PETERS.
SO HOW CAN THE SKIPPER BLOW
THE DAYLIGHTS OUT OF THAT PLACE
WHEN THEY'RE ALL OVER THERE?
LIKE I SAID BEFORE, PAT,
YOU DON'T ASK QUESTIONS
ABOARD THIS MAN'S SHIP.
WE DO AS WE'RE TOLD.
ALL RIGHT, STAND CLEAR
TO LOAD TORPEDOES.
WHAT'S UP, SKI?
THE SWITCHES...
THEY'RE SHORTED.
YOU DON'T SUPPOSE THOSE
ELECTRICAL THINGS HAVE ANYTHING
TO DO WITH IT, DO YOU?
DOES THAT ANSWER
YOUR QUESTION?
THERE'S NO WAY THAT PANEL
COULD THROW A SHORT LIKE THAT
UNLESS SOMETHING WAS HAYWIRE.
[ Crane On Speaker ]
MISSILE ROOM, WHAT PROGRESS ARE
YOU MAKING WITH THOSE TORPEDOES?
THIS IS THE MISSILE ROOM,
CAPTAIN. WE'RE HAVING TROUBLE
WITH THE LOADING MECHANISM.
WHAT KIND OF TROUBLE?
THE CIRCUITRY, SIR. THE PANELS
ARE ALIVE WITH ELECTRICITY.
CAN YOU SHORT-CIRCUIT THE PANEL
AND LOAD THE TORPEDOES MANUALLY?
WE'LL TRY, SIR.
ALL RIGHT, DO IT.
ON THE DOUBLE.
YES, SIR.
SAY, PAT, HAND ME A PAIR
OF GLOVES AND WELDING MASK,
WILL YOU?
I'M GONNA REACH IN AND CUT
THE MAIN CIRCUITRY CABLE.
[ Patterson ]
YOU BETTER BE RIGHT
THE FIRST TIME, SKI.
IF YOU GIVE THOSE THINGS
A SECOND CHANCE, THEY'LL
BLOW US RIGHT OUT OF THE SUB.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT A THING.
[ Clicks ]
LOOKS LIKE YOU DID IT, SKI.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S RAM
THOSE TORPEDOES HOME.
TORPEDOES LOADED, SIR.
READY FOR A MANUAL FIRING.
FIRE ONE.
[ Water Splashing ]
FIRE ONE, SIR.
- FIRE TWO.
- FIRE TWO, SIR.
[ Beeping ]
TORPEDOES. INTERCEPT.
[ Explosion ]
THOSE TORPEDOES
WENT OFF PREMATURELY.
THEY NEVER REACHED SATO SIX.
[ Man On Speaker ]
CONTROL ROOM FROM ENGINEERING.
WE'VE LOST ALL CONTROL.
NO GUIDANCE CONTROL.
TRY THE MANUAL CONTROL.
CUT ALL POWER... ALL LINES!
[ Patterson On Speaker ]
CUT POWER, ALL LINES. AYE, SIR.
REPEAT. CUT ALL POWER,
ALL LINES.
THE SWITCHES ARE OPEN, SIR,
AND THE POWER WON'T CUT.
YOU KNOW WHERE
OUR PRESENT COURSE
WILL TAKE US?
STRAIGHT TO SATO SIX.
A SIMPLE HEAT FIELD,
ADMIRAL.
IT WON'T HARM YOU...
UNLESS YOU TOUCH IT.
NOW, I'LL RELEASE YOU
WHEN YOU DECIDE TO BE
MORE COOPERATIVE.
NOW, ONCE AGAIN, WILL YOU START
THIS INSTALLATION FOR US?
NO.
WELL, I BELIEVE THAT
I CAN BYPASS YOU, ADMIRAL,
BY SUBSTITUTING THE SEAVIEW.
[ Chuckles, Mutters ]
YOU'LL NEVER GET SEAVIEW HERE
TO SUPPLY THE STARTING POWER.
YOU'RE WRONG, ADMIRAL.
THE SEAVIEW IS ALREADY HERE.
IT JUST ARRIVED.
WE SURFACED.
[ Exhales ]
WE'RE INSIDE
THE SATO AIR LOCK.
CAN'T BE.
WELL, LOOK FOR YOURSELF.
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?
WELL, I NEVER ENJOYED
BEING A SITTING DUCK.
COMBAT TEAM NUMBER THREE,
LAY FORWARD TO THE CONTROL ROOM
ON THE DOUBLE.
[ Man On Speaker ]
AYE, SIR.
[ Morton ]
LEE.
YOU'LL WANT THESE PLANS.
THANKS.
FOR A RACE THAT DIES EASILY,
YOU PEOPLE HAVE LITTLE REGARD
FOR LIFE.
WE HAVE A GREAT REGARD FOR LIFE.
BUT I DON'T THINK
THEY'RE GOING TO DIE.
YET THEY MAY HAVE TO.
WE'LL GO STRAIGHT DOWN THIS
CORRIDOR TO THE CONTROL ROOM.
IF THE ADMIRAL'S STILL ALIVE,
WE'LL FIND HIM THERE.
[ Electricity Crackling ]
DROP YOUR WEAPONS.
YOU'RE MY PRISONERS.
TAKE THEIR WEAPONS.
STAY WHERE YOU ARE.
[ Gunfire Continues ]
YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME
AND MINE.
DROP YOUR GUNS.
YOU'RE DOING YOURSELVES
NO GOOD.
WE'RE GONNA FIND THE ADMIRAL,
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
[ Sighs ]
UH, CHIEF, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
YES, SIR. I, UH... I JUST
SWEAT LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME.
[ Chuckles ]
I'M GOING TO TRY TO BREAK OUT
OF THIS HEAT SHIELD.
OH, WAIT A MINUTE.
UH, I MEAN, UH, WHY DON'T
YOU LET ME TRY IT FIRST,
AND, UH, THEN WE'LL SEE
WHAT HAPPENS?
NO, YOU STAY PUT.
YOU'RE THE... THE RESERVE.
NOW, DON'T COMMIT YOURSELF
UNTIL THERE'S ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING LEFT.
NOW THAT, CHIEF, IS AN ORDER.
AYE, SIR.
NOW.
CHIEF.
WHAT HAPPENED?
I'M... I'M NOT SURE I KNOW.
WELL, ADMIRAL,
STILL ON YOUR FEET.
YOU'RE A VERY DETERMINED FELLOW.
AS YOU SEEM TO BE.
YES.
I'LL SHOW YOU WHY.
THIS IS A HOMING DEVICE.
THERE ARE OTHERS OF US
ON THE WAY HERE...
A GREAT MANY OTHERS...
AND THIS DEVICE WILL GUIDE THEM
SAFELY TO THIS SOURCE OF ENERGY.
BUT YOU STILL DON'T
HAVE THE ENERGY.
AH, BUT WE WILL.
LET ME SHOW YOU SOMETHING ELSE.
THESE ARE OUR SHIPS.
THEY'RE HEADING STRAIGHT
FOR EARTH.
NOW, IF YOU ACTIVATE SATO,
THEY'LL COME AS FRIENDS...
AND THEN CONTINUE
ON THEIR JOURNEY.
BUT IF YOU DO NOT,
THEY'LL COME AS DESTROYERS.
EITHER WAY, THEY'LL BE HERE
WITHIN THE HOUR.
WELL?
DO THEY COME AS FRIENDS
OR ENEMIES?
I'LL GIVE YOU 30 SECONDS
TO MAKE UP YOUR MIND.
YOU WIN.
BUT I'LL NEED SOME SPECIAL
EQUIPMENT THAT'S ABOARD SEAVIEW.
I'LL GO GET IT.
UH, JUST A MOMENT, ADMIRAL.
DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ME.
CAPTAIN CRANE WILL BRING
THE EQUIPMENT YOU NEED.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
LEE, UH, WE'RE GOING
TO ACTIVATE SATO.
- ADMIRAL, YOU CAN'T.
- LET'S GET ON WITH IT, ADMIRAL.
I'LL NEED A SUIT AND GLOVES
TO PROTECT ME AGAINST THE HIGH
VOLTAGE BUILT INTO THE CONTROLS.
YOU'LL FIND THEM IN
THE REACTOR ROOM IN,
UH, LOCKER "B."
I, UH...
I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD.
WILL YOU DO IT?
AYE, SIR.
WHY LOCKER "B"?
HE KNOWS THERE ARE NO SUITS
OR GLOVES IN THERE.
[ Beeping ]
THE ADMIRAL WAS TRYING
TO TELL ME SOMETHING.
WHY RADIATION GUNS?
[ Sighs ]
CHIP, IN THE LAB...
WE HIT THE CAPSULE WITH X-RAY
AND IT OPENED.
DON'T YOU SEE?
THEIR ONE WEAKNESS IS RADIATION.
GENERAL HAINES SAID
THE CAPSULE WE SENT BACK FOR
ANALYSIS REACTED TO RADIATION.
THAT'S RIGHT. THAT'S RIGHT. THE
ONLY WAY WE CAN DESTROY THESE
THINGS IS THROUGH RADIATION.
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO
WITH THAT?
FILL IT TO FULL CAPACITY
WITH RADIATION.
GET ANOTHER ONE.
THESE ARE STILL EXPERIMENTAL.
THEY'VE NEVER BEEN USED
WITH A FULL CHARGE BEFORE.
RIGHT NOW WE DON'T HAVE
ANY OTHER CHOICE.
WE'VE ONLY USED THIS REACTOR
TO RECHARGE PORTABLE
ATOMIC ENGINES.
WE'VE NEVER USED IT
TO LOAD WEAPONS BEFORE.
THERE'S ALWAYS THE FIRST TIME.
ALL RIGHT, GET READY.
ALL SET.
GO!
[ Humming ]
THAT'S ENOUGH, LEE.
NO. I WANT THEM AS
FULLY CHARGED AS THEY CAN GET.
OKAY, CUT IT OFF.
[ Humming Stops ]
LET'S GET 'EM
INTO THE GUNS.
WHEN WE FIRE THESE
AT THOSE ELECTRICAL THINGS,
WHAT DO YOU THINK'LL HAPPEN?
IF WE'RE STILL ALIVE AFTER
WE FIRE, I'LL LET YOU KNOW.
HOLD IT!
[ Groans ]
[ Electricity Crackling ]
WELL, THERE THEY GO, LEE.
WITH THEIR HOMING DEVICE
DESTROYED, THEY'RE HEADING
FOR SOME OTHER DESTINATION.
HOW DID YOU GUESS THEY
COULDN'T STAND THE EXPOSURE
TO THE RADIATION?
WELL, THE WATCH TOLD ME.
SEE, WHEN THE CRYSTAL
BROKE DURING THE FIGHT,
THE CREATURE WAS EXPOSED
TO ITS RADIUM DIAL AND, UH...
HMM. WELL, THAT WAS
ENOUGH TO DESTROY HIM.
TALK ABOUT
THE NICK OF TIME.
[ Chuckles ]
FROM THE PACIFIC
TRACKING STATION.
THE SECOND METEOR SHOWER
IS DUE TO HIT WITHIN
THE NEXT FOUR MINUTES.
PLOT SIX ON THE MAP.
HOW CLOSE WILL IT BE?
LET'S SEE, UH...
UH, WITHIN A MILE OR TWO.
TAKE HER UP TO 90 FEET.
TEN DEGREE UP BUBBLE.
LEVEL OFF AT 90 FEET.
ACTIVATE SAIL CAMERA.
I WANT CONTINUAL SKY SEARCH
UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
PIPE IT THROUGH
THE NOSE MONITOR.
[ Man On Speaker ] AYE, SIR.
TWENTY SECONDS.
THERE THEY ARE,
RIGHT ON TIME.
SEVEN OF THEM.
NO. NO, EIGHT OF THEM.
KOWALSKI, DO YOU
HAVE THESE METEORS
ON YOUR SCREEN?
YES, SIR.
LOCKED ON AND TRACKING.
IMPACT IN ONE MINUTE,
TWO AND ONE-HALF MILES
DUE WEST OF US.
THEY'RE CHANGING COURSE.
DIVE! ALL DIVE!
THE METEORS HAVE CHANGED COURSE.
WILL IMPACT ON SEAVIEW
IN 15 SECONDS.
[ Klaxon Blaring ]
CLOSE CRASH DOORS!
[ Crashing ]
BLOW STARBOARD TANKS.
TRIM SHIP.
[ Man On Speaker ]
BLOWING STARBOARD TANKS
AND TRIMMING.
DAMAGE CONTROL, REPORT.
WE SHOW SEVERAL PENETRATIONS
BY SMALL OBJECTS.
AUTOMATIC HULL REPAIR
NOW SEALING ALL PUNCTURES.
NO APPARENT
INTERNAL DAMAGE.
VERY WELL.
ADMIRAL, HERE'S ONE
OF THOSE THINGAMAJIGS
THAT HIT US.
I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A SHELL,
BUT THERE'S NO MARKINGS ON IT.
- YOU HAVEN'T HANDLED IT, CHIEF?
- OH, NO. NOT ME, SIR.
STAND BACK!
[ Coughing ]
[ Man ]
VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA.
STARRING RICHARD BASEHART,
DAVID HEDISON.
VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM
OF THE SEA.
[ Coughing ]
CHIEF? CHIEF, COME ON.
GIVE ME A HAND.
[ Coughing Continues ]
THAT'S IT.
MURRAY, TAKE OVER.
IS HE BADLY HURT?
POSSIBLE CONCUSSION.
RON, MARK...
GET HIM TO SICK BAY.
[ Coughs, Clears Throat ]
WE... WE DON'T KNOW
WHAT OTHER EFFECTS THAT...
THAT SMOKE MIGHT HAVE.
THIS IS THE CAPTAIN.
I WANT ALL HANDS
TO BE ON THE LOOKOUT...
FOR ANY OBJECTS THAT LOOK LIKE
75 MILLIMETER SHELLS.
REPORT YOUR FINDINGS TO
THE CONTROL ROOM IMMEDIATELY.
LOOK AT THIS.
- THE OPENING'S GONE.
- AH. BETTER GET THIS
TO THE LAB AND EXAMINE IT.
TAKE THE CONN, CHIP.
AYE, SIR.
[ Man On Speaker ]
CONTROL ROOM!
GO AHEAD.
REPAIR TEAM BAKER.
BROKEN STEAM PIPE
IN ENGINE ROOM.
STARTING REPAIRS NOW.
- HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?
- FIFTEEN MINUTES SHOULD DO IT.
REPORT WHEN YOU'RE THROUGH.
AYE, SIR.
[ Crane On Speaker ] CONTROL
ROOM, THIS IS THE CAPTAIN.
CONTROL ROOM, AYE.
WE'RE IN THE LAB NOW,
AND WE'RE GOING TO TRY
TO OPEN THE CYLINDER.
WE'VE LOCKED THE LAB DOORS
FOR SAFETY.
NOW, THE MIKE'LL BE LEFT OPEN
SO YOU CAN HEAR WHAT'S
HAPPENING, JUST IN CASE.
VERY WELL.
THAT DIAMOND DRILL
DOESN'T EVEN SCRATCH IT.
BEFORE WE GO ANY FURTHER,
I THINK WE'D BETTER REPORT
WHAT WE'VE FOUND.
GET ME GENERAL HAINES,
NATIONAL SPACE ADMINISTRATION,
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
[ Coughing ]
CONTROL ROOM!
[ Coughs ]
CONTROL ROOM!
REPAIR TEAM BAKER, COME IN.
ENGINE ROOM, COME IN.
DAMAGE CONTROL,
CHECK THE ENGINE ROOM,
ON THE DOUBLE.
WELL, IT'S IMPERVIOUS
TO ACIDS TOO.
WELL, WHAT ABOUT HEAT?
A CUTTING TORCH OR
THE ELECTRIC FURNACE?
WELL, IT JUST SURVIVED
A PLUNGE THROUGH
THE EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE...
AT SPEEDS THAT WOULD BURN
OUR BEST METALS TO CINDERS.
MMM. IF WE CAN'T OPEN IT,
LET'S HAVE A LOOK INSIDE.
I'LL GET THE X-RAY MACHINE.
OH.
PATTERSON,
YOU ALL RIGHT?
[ Coughs ]
YOU OKAY?
[ Coughs ]
WHAT HAPPENED?
OH. THAT'S WHAT
I'D LIKE TO KNOW.
[ Electricity Crackling ]
- THIS IS CHIEF SHARKEY
TO CONTROL ROOM.
- GO AHEAD.
SOMETHING CAME OUT OF
THESE CYLINDERS IN THE, UH...
THE ENGINE ROOM, SIR.
WAS IT GAS?
NO, IT WAS, UH, SOME KIND
OF AN ELECTRICAL ARC
OR SOMETHING.
[ Coughs ]
[ Humming ]
[ Humming Stops ]
ALL RIGHT, LET'S HAVE
A LOOK AT THAT PLATE.
ALL RIGHT.
HUH. NOTHING.
THE RAYS DIDN'T PENETRATE.
YEAH. WELL, WE'LL HAVE
TO TRY SOMETHING ELSE.
[ Electricity Crackling ]
WHAT WAS THAT?
WELL, IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL
DISCHARGE OF SOME KIND.
LIKE IT HIT
THAT SWITCH OVER THERE.
NO DAMAGE. AND IT HIT
LIKE A THUNDERBOLT.
LEE, CAN YOU GIVE ME
THAT MAGNIFYING GLASS?
YEAH.
LOOK AT THIS.
HUH?
INSTRUMENTATION.
IT'S A MINIATURE SPACESHIP.
[ Sighs ]
WHAT ABOUT THAT CALL
TO GENERAL HAINES?
I'LL ALERT SPARKS.
YEAH. YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT,
GENERAL.
APPARENTLY, WE'RE BEING INVADED
BY SOME KIND OF ELECTRICAL
ENERGY FROM OUTER SPACE.
THEY ARRIVED IN
MINIATURE SPACESHIPS.
[ On Intercom ] ARE YOU SURE,
NELSON? WE TRACKED AND RECORDED
THEM HERE AS METEORITES.
NOT TRUE, GENERAL.
THEY'RE COMPLETE
WITH INSTRUMENTATION.
UH, TWO GROUPS OF THEM
HIT THE OCEAN NOT A MILE
FROM EACH OTHER.
COULD BE
AN EXPLORATORY PROBE, A...
A SPACE TRAVEL EXPEDITION.
I STILL THINK IT'S AN INVASION.
WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
BECAUSE THEY LANDED WITHIN
100 MILES OF SATO NUMBER SIX.
- SATO SIX? ARE YOU SURE?
- LOOK, WE'RE IN THE AREA.
BUT SATO SIX HAS
BEEN DECOMMISSIONED
FOR MORE THAN A YEAR.
BUT IT'S STILL
OUR LARGEST RESERVE
UNDERWATER ATOMIC BASE.
AND YOU KNOW VERY WELL IT CAN BE
REACTIVATED WITHIN 12 HOURS.
- COULD BE COINCIDENCE.
- [ Sighs ]
I STILL THINK
WE SHOULD INVESTIGATE.
I AGREE. WE'LL SEND OUT
THE RED ALERTS FROM HERE.
AND YOU'D BETTER GET THAT
MINIATURE SPACESHIP TO US
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
IT'LL BE ON ITS WAY
WITHIN 10 MINUTES.
- CONTROL ROOM.
- YES, ADMIRAL.
UH, GENERAL HAINES WANTS
THE MINIATURE SPACESHIP. USE
THE FLYING SUB TO GET IT TO HIM.
THEN SET YOUR COURSE
FOR SATO NUMBER SIX,
FLANK SPEED.
AYE, SIR.
AND, UH...
[ Chuckles ]
WELL, I'LL BE IN MY CABIN.
PREPARE THE FLYING SUB
FOR IMMEDIATE LAUNCH.
AYE, SIR.
COURSE 1-8-7, FULL SPEED.
[ Man ]
AYE, SIR.
WHAT THE...
SAM GARRITY.
HELLO, HARRY.
WELL, THIS IS
IMPOSSIBLE.
IT'S... IT'S GOOD
TO SEE YOU, SAM.
SAME HERE, HARRY.
[ Laughs ]
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
AND HOW DID YOU
GET ABOARD SEAVIEW
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OCEAN?
WELL, I DIDN'T.
SEE, I, UH...
I WANTED TO BE WITH YOU
ON THIS MISSION.
THERE WASN'T TIME TO GO
THROUGH CHANNELS, SO, UH,
I STOWED AWAY
BEFORE YOU SAILED.
OH, OH, OH.
WELL, NOW WAIT A MINUTE, SAM.
YOU'RE LEAVING OUT
AN AWFULLY BIG CHUNK OF TIME.
WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
YOUR PLANE WAS SHOT DOWN
IN FLAMES. YOU'VE BEEN REPORTED
MISSING IN ACTION...
AND PRESUMED DEAD FOR,
UH, OH, 27 YEARS.
OBVIOUSLY,
AN ERRONEOUS PRESUMPTION.
OH, THE, UH, DEPARTMENT'S
BEEN KEEPING ME UNDER WRAPS.
I'VE BEEN DOING UNDERCOVER WORK.
OH. OH, OH. WELL, YEAH.
[ Chuckles ]
WELL, THAT-THAT MUST
HAVE BEEN INTERESTING.
AND, UM, HOW'D PEGGY
FEEL ABOUT THAT?
OH, UH, SHE DOESN'T MIND.
SHE UNDERSTANDS.
- MMM. YEAH, SHE'S
AN UNDERSTANDING WIFE.
- OH, INDEED, SHE IS.
I THINK I'M BEGINNING
TO UNDERSTAND SOMETHING TOO.
WHAT'S THAT, HARRY?
THAT YOU'RE NOT SAM GARRITY.
HE'S DEAD.
WELL, THAT'S NONSENSE.
YOU SEE ME.
I SEE YOU. I ALSO SEE
A WORLD WAR II UNIFORM.
I SEE A MAN OF 40
WHO SHOULD BE IN HIS 70s.
I SEE A MAN WHO CLAIMS
A WIFE NAMED PEGGY,
BUT SAM GARRITY NEVER MARRIED.
WHAT, UH...
WHAT ELSE DO YOU SEE, HARRY?
I BELIEVE I SEE SOMEONE
WHO CAME HERE IN ONE OF
THOSE MINIATURE SPACESHIPS...
AND ASSUMED
GARRITY'S APPEARANCE.
"NAVAL HISTORY OF WORLD WAR II."
AH, LET'S SEE NOW.
THAT PICTURE OF SAM
WAS TAKEN THE DAY
HE GOT HIS SECOND STAR.
THAT'S ALMOST 10 YEARS
BEFORE HE DIED.
YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT, DID YOU?
THAT'S WHY YOU MADE THE MISTAKE
OF ASSUMING THE IMAGE
OF THIS PHOTOGRAPH.
WHAT IF I, UH, INSIST
THAT I AM SAM GARRITY?
WELL, THEN YOU'LL UNDERSTAND
THAT I HAVE TO PUT YOU UNDER
ARREST UNTIL WE CAN BE SURE.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
[ Electricity Crackling ]
[ Electricity Crackling ]
THE FLYING SUB'S
LAUNCHED AND AIRBORNE.
GENERAL HAINES WILL HAVE
THE MINIATURE SPACESHIPS
IN A MATTER OF MINUTES.
- GOOD.
- SKIPPER!
WHAT'S WRONG?
THE COMPUTER'S FLIPPED.
I DON'T KNOW.
IT JUST STARTED
ALL BY ITSELF.
WELL, TURN IT OFF.
I CAN'T, SIR. I TRIED.
IT WON'T STOP.
LISTEN TO THIS.
TWO PLUS TWO,
WEATHER REPORT.
THREE TIMES ONE,
ANOTHER WEATHER REPORT.
COURSE AND SPEED,
DISTANCE TO THE MOON.
ADMIRAL.
ADMIRAL, COME IN, PLEASE.
CHIP, YOU'D BETTER
SEE WHAT'S WRONG.
ARE YOU HURT, SIR?
[ Grunting ]
I SEEM TO BE
ALL RIGHT. I...
J-JUST STUNNED,
I GUESS.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
I DON'T KNOW, SIR.
ALL SORTS OF WEIRD THINGS.
LEE, WHAT'S HAPPENING?
COME IN.
I DON'T KNOW.
THE CONTROLS ARE ACTING UP.
WE'RE OFF COURSE.
BE RIGHT THERE.
CAPTAIN, ROCK FORMATIONS
DEAD AHEAD.
ACTIVATE NOSE CAMERA.
[ Man On Speaker ]
AYE, SIR.
HARD RIGHT RUDDER!
CHIEF!
SKIPPER, THE CONTROLS
ARE LOCKED!
[ Grunting ]
SHE JUST WON'T BUDGE,
SIR.
ROCKS AHEAD.
COLLISION COURSE.
ENGINE ROOM,
CUT ALL POWER.
[ Patterson On Speaker ]
CUT ALL POWER. DEAD STOP.
AYE, SIR.
LEE!
CLOSE CRASH DOORS.
STAND BY FOR COLLISION.
DAMAGE CONTROL, REPORT.
[ Man On Speaker ] MINOR DAMAGE
TO THE HULL IN SECTION C-53.
REPAIR CREWS AT WORK.
ALL RIGHT. CARRY ON.
FROZEN CONTROLS.
WHAT'S THE ANSWER?
THE ELECTRICAL BEINGS IN
THE MINIATURE SPACESHIP.
WITH THE POWER OFF,
WILL THEY REMAIN INACTIVE?
POSSIBLY. POSSIBLY.
SKIPPER, WE'RE AT
A DEPTH OF 3,060 FEET.
THAT'S CRUSH DEPTH.
I'VE GOT TO RESUME POWER.
YOU CAN TRY.
SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
RESUME ALL POWER,
ALL LINES.
[ Patterson On Speaker ]
ACTIVATING NORMAL POWER
TO ALL LINES.
WHAT ABOUT THE CONTROLS, CHIEF?
THEY'RE WORKING NOW, SIR.
[ Sighs ]
OPEN CRASH DOORS.
[ Man On Speaker ]
AYE, SIR.
BLOW ALL BALLAST TANKS.
RESUME CRUISE DEPTH.
- RESUME COURSE AND SPEED.
- AYE, AYE, SIR.
[ Sighs ]
THESE, UH...
THESE ELECTRICAL ENTITIES...
NOW, WHAT DO YOU THINK
THEY WANT FROM US?
SATO SIX.
IT MAKES SENSE.
IF THEY CAN CONTROL
ALL THAT ATOMIC POWER,
THEY CAN CONTROL THE WORLD.
I WONDER IF THEY'RE STILL
WITH US, OR WHETHER CUTTING
THE POWER FINISHED THEM OFF.
WELL, EITHER WAY, AS SOON
AS THE FLYING SUB RETURNS,
I'M GONNA TAKE A COMBAT PARTY
AND GO OUT TO THE INSTALLATION.
IF THEY'RE THERE, I'LL TRY
TO ACTIVATE THE SELF-DESTRUCT
AND DESTROY THE REACTOR.
IF THEY ARE THERE,
IT COULD JUST WORK
THE OTHER WAY AROUND TOO.
IN THAT CASE,
USE NUCLEAR TORPEDOES
AND BLAST SATO SIX.
NELSON TO SEAVIEW.
COME IN, SEAVIEW.
[ Crane On Speaker ]
SEAVIEW. GO AHEAD, ADMIRAL.
TEST SIGNAL TO LAUNCH
NUCLEAR TORPEDOES.
[ Beeping ]
READ YOU LOUD AND CLEAR.
FIRING SIGNAL IS OPERATIONAL.
VERY WELL.
OVER AND OUT.
[ Clears Throat ]
ADMIRAL, SIR, QUESTION.
YEAH?
[ Clears Throat ]
WHEN YOU PUSH
THE DESTRUCT SIGNAL,
CAPTAIN CRANE WILL FIRE TWO
TORPEDOES WITH NUCLEAR WARHEADS
AT, UH, SATO NUMBER SIX, RIGHT?
- THAT'S RIGHT.
- UH, BUT YOU WON'T PUSH IT...
UNLESS THOSE
SPOOKS HAVE GOT US IN A BIND
AND WE CAN'T GET OUT OF IT?
NO. RIGHT AGAIN.
NOW, UM, IF WE GET INTO A BIND
AND WE CAN'T GET LOOSE,
AND YOU DO PUSH
THE DESTRUCT SIGNAL,
AND CAPTAIN CRANE DOES
FIRE THE TORPEDOES,
WHAT I'D LIKE TO KNOW, SIR,
IS, UH, HOW DO WE GET OUT?
OH, YOU DON'T HAVE
TO WORRY ABOUT THAT.
NO?
NO, NO. WE DON'T GET OUT.
THAT'S WHAT I WAS AFRAID OF.
[ Sighs ]
WE MUST BE CLOSE.
WE'RE RIGHT ON IT, SIR.
ABEAM OF US TO STARBOARD.
ALL RIGHT,
WE'RE GOING IN.
AH, CHECK THIS.
WHAT DO WE DO IF
THE CREATURES ARE HERE?
WE DESTROY THE ATOMIC REACTOR...
ONE OF US OR ALL OF US...
WHOEVER CAN GET TO IT.
HOW DO YOU DESTROY THE REACTOR
WITHOUT BLOWING UP
THE WHOLE INSTALLATION?
PULL A SINGLE LEVER.
PULL A RED LEVER,
ON THE START BOARD, FULL DOWN.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO.
NELSON TO SEAVIEW.
[ Crane ]
SEAVIEW. GO AHEAD, ADMIRAL.
THEY'RE HERE.
HEAT, LIGHT AND VENTILATION
HAVE BEEN TURNED ON.
IF YOU DON'T HEAR
FROM ME IN 10 MINUTES,
BLOW UP THE INSTALLATION.
LEE? LEE, DO YOU HEAR ME?
I, UH...
I HEAR YOU, ADMIRAL, UH...
UH, BUT, UM, LOOK, UH...
CALL IN, OKAY?
YEAH, YEAH.
OVER AND OUT.
THESE THREE CORRIDORS LEAD
TO THE MASTER CONTROL ROOM.
WE'LL USE THEM ALL IN CASE
ONE OF 'EM IS BLOCKED.
PETERS, YOU TAKE THE FIRST ONE.
CHIEF, YOU AND KELLY THE SECOND.
AND I'LL USE THIS ONE.
[ Electricity Crackling ]
[ Electricity Crackling
Continues ]
[ Electricity Crackling Stops ]
[ Footsteps Approaching ]
STAND BACK.
[ Gunshot ]
[ Gunshot ]
DOWN HERE!
WHAT HAPPENED?
HE'S DEAD.
THERE'S NO SIGN OF A WOUND.
WE'LL COME BACK FOR HIM.
LET'S GO ON.
GENTLEMEN, HOLD YOUR FIRE.
I MEAN YOU NO HARM.
SAM GARRITY AGAIN.
YES, I RATHER LIKE
THE APPEARANCE.
WHO ARE YOU, REALLY?
AND WHAT DO YOU WANT?
FAIR QUESTIONS.
WE'RE FROM A FAR EDGE
OF THE GALAXY... WAYFARERS...
STOPPING HERE ONLY BRIEFLY
TO REPLENISH OURSELVES.
MM-HMM. REPLENISH YOURSELVES
WITH WHAT?
ENERGY.
YOUR INSTALLATION HERE CAN
SUPPLY US WITH ALL WE NEED.
ONCE WE HAVE IT,
WE'LL CONTINUE ON OUR WAY.
BUT YOU NEED ME TO START UP
THE INSTALLATION.
YES. IN LOOKING
THROUGH YOUR MIND,
I FIND THAT YOU'RE ONE OF
SIX MEN IN YOUR WORLD WHO
KNOWS THE CORRECT COMBINATION.
I ALSO KNOW THAT
ANY INCORRECT SETTING
WILL DESTROY THE GENERATOR.
BUT THE CORRECT SETTING IS,
UH, WELL HIDDEN IN YOUR MIND.
I COULDN'T READ IT.
NOW, I HAVE EVERYTHING ELSE,
BUT I NEED THE KEY SETTING.
WILL YOU START
THE INSTALLATION FOR US?
NO.
THERE'S ENOUGH POWER HERE
TO DESTROY THE HUMAN RACE
IF IT WERE TURNED AGAINST US.
- BUT WE'RE FRIENDLY.
- WELL, I'M VERY PLEASED
TO HEAR THAT.
NOW, PERHAPS, AFTER WE'VE KNOWN
EACH OTHER BETTER, AND YOU'VE
REALLY DEMONSTRATED FRIENDSHIP,
WE'LL BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU
ALL THE ENERGY YOU NEED.
BUT THAT WOULD TAKE TIME,
AND WE MUST LEAVE SOON.
THEN I'M SORRY. I, UH...
I CAN'T ACT ON
MY OWN INITIATIVE.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
YOU PEOPLE ARE
NOT FRIENDLY.
YOU WOULD DESTROY
THE GENERATOR FIRST
AND TALK LATER.
NOW, I COMMAND YOU
TO START THE POWER.
- I REFUSE.
- WELL, YOU WILL START IT.
WILLINGLY OR NOT,
YOU WILL START IT.
YOU HAVE NO CHOICE.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
[ High-pitched Humming Stops ]
[ Beeping ]
THE DESTRUCT SIGNAL.
COULD BE AN ACCIDENT. HE'LL
COUNTERMAND IT IN A MOMENT.
WE STILL HAVE
A DIRECT ORDER:
DESTROY SATO SIX
WITH NUCLEAR TORPEDOES.
AND KILL THE ADMIRAL?
MISSILE ROOM.
[ Man On Speaker ]
MISSILE ROOM, AYE.
LOAD NUCLEAR WARHEAD
TORPEDOES.
AYE, AYE, SIR.
COME TO DEPTH 1-5-0,
COURSE 2-6-5, FULL AHEAD.
AYE, SIR.
LOWER AWAY TORPEDOES.
LOWERING
TORPEDOES.
I DON'T GET IT, SKI.
WHAT'S TO GET?
WE GOT OUR ORDERS.
WE FOLLOW 'EM OUT.
YEAH.
BUT NUCLEAR TORPEDOES.
WHAT'S THE TARGET?
YOU GOT THAT FIGURED OUT
AS WELL AS I HAVE.
IT'S GOTTA BE SATO SIX.
SURE.
BUT YOU KNOW THE SCOOP ON THAT.
THE ADMIRAL'S IN THERE.
SO ARE SHARKEY,
KELLY AND PETERS.
SO HOW CAN THE SKIPPER BLOW
THE DAYLIGHTS OUT OF THAT PLACE
WHEN THEY'RE ALL OVER THERE?
LIKE I SAID BEFORE, PAT,
YOU DON'T ASK QUESTIONS
ABOARD THIS MAN'S SHIP.
WE DO AS WE'RE TOLD.
ALL RIGHT, STAND CLEAR
TO LOAD TORPEDOES.
WHAT'S UP, SKI?
THE SWITCHES...
THEY'RE SHORTED.
YOU DON'T SUPPOSE THOSE
ELECTRICAL THINGS HAVE ANYTHING
TO DO WITH IT, DO YOU?
DOES THAT ANSWER
YOUR QUESTION?
THERE'S NO WAY THAT PANEL
COULD THROW A SHORT LIKE THAT
UNLESS SOMETHING WAS HAYWIRE.
[ Crane On Speaker ]
MISSILE ROOM, WHAT PROGRESS ARE
YOU MAKING WITH THOSE TORPEDOES?
THIS IS THE MISSILE ROOM,
CAPTAIN. WE'RE HAVING TROUBLE
WITH THE LOADING MECHANISM.
WHAT KIND OF TROUBLE?
THE CIRCUITRY, SIR. THE PANELS
ARE ALIVE WITH ELECTRICITY.
CAN YOU SHORT-CIRCUIT THE PANEL
AND LOAD THE TORPEDOES MANUALLY?
WE'LL TRY, SIR.
ALL RIGHT, DO IT.
ON THE DOUBLE.
YES, SIR.
SAY, PAT, HAND ME A PAIR
OF GLOVES AND WELDING MASK,
WILL YOU?
I'M GONNA REACH IN AND CUT
THE MAIN CIRCUITRY CABLE.
[ Patterson ]
YOU BETTER BE RIGHT
THE FIRST TIME, SKI.
IF YOU GIVE THOSE THINGS
A SECOND CHANCE, THEY'LL
BLOW US RIGHT OUT OF THE SUB.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT A THING.
[ Clicks ]
LOOKS LIKE YOU DID IT, SKI.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S RAM
THOSE TORPEDOES HOME.
TORPEDOES LOADED, SIR.
READY FOR A MANUAL FIRING.
FIRE ONE.
[ Water Splashing ]
FIRE ONE, SIR.
- FIRE TWO.
- FIRE TWO, SIR.
[ Beeping ]
TORPEDOES. INTERCEPT.
[ Explosion ]
THOSE TORPEDOES
WENT OFF PREMATURELY.
THEY NEVER REACHED SATO SIX.
[ Man On Speaker ]
CONTROL ROOM FROM ENGINEERING.
WE'VE LOST ALL CONTROL.
NO GUIDANCE CONTROL.
TRY THE MANUAL CONTROL.
CUT ALL POWER... ALL LINES!
[ Patterson On Speaker ]
CUT POWER, ALL LINES. AYE, SIR.
REPEAT. CUT ALL POWER,
ALL LINES.
THE SWITCHES ARE OPEN, SIR,
AND THE POWER WON'T CUT.
YOU KNOW WHERE
OUR PRESENT COURSE
WILL TAKE US?
STRAIGHT TO SATO SIX.
A SIMPLE HEAT FIELD,
ADMIRAL.
IT WON'T HARM YOU...
UNLESS YOU TOUCH IT.
NOW, I'LL RELEASE YOU
WHEN YOU DECIDE TO BE
MORE COOPERATIVE.
NOW, ONCE AGAIN, WILL YOU START
THIS INSTALLATION FOR US?
NO.
WELL, I BELIEVE THAT
I CAN BYPASS YOU, ADMIRAL,
BY SUBSTITUTING THE SEAVIEW.
[ Chuckles, Mutters ]
YOU'LL NEVER GET SEAVIEW HERE
TO SUPPLY THE STARTING POWER.
YOU'RE WRONG, ADMIRAL.
THE SEAVIEW IS ALREADY HERE.
IT JUST ARRIVED.
WE SURFACED.
[ Exhales ]
WE'RE INSIDE
THE SATO AIR LOCK.
CAN'T BE.
WELL, LOOK FOR YOURSELF.
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?
WELL, I NEVER ENJOYED
BEING A SITTING DUCK.
COMBAT TEAM NUMBER THREE,
LAY FORWARD TO THE CONTROL ROOM
ON THE DOUBLE.
[ Man On Speaker ]
AYE, SIR.
[ Morton ]
LEE.
YOU'LL WANT THESE PLANS.
THANKS.
FOR A RACE THAT DIES EASILY,
YOU PEOPLE HAVE LITTLE REGARD
FOR LIFE.
WE HAVE A GREAT REGARD FOR LIFE.
BUT I DON'T THINK
THEY'RE GOING TO DIE.
YET THEY MAY HAVE TO.
WE'LL GO STRAIGHT DOWN THIS
CORRIDOR TO THE CONTROL ROOM.
IF THE ADMIRAL'S STILL ALIVE,
WE'LL FIND HIM THERE.
[ Electricity Crackling ]
DROP YOUR WEAPONS.
YOU'RE MY PRISONERS.
TAKE THEIR WEAPONS.
STAY WHERE YOU ARE.
[ Gunfire Continues ]
YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME
AND MINE.
DROP YOUR GUNS.
YOU'RE DOING YOURSELVES
NO GOOD.
WE'RE GONNA FIND THE ADMIRAL,
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
[ Sighs ]
UH, CHIEF, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
YES, SIR. I, UH... I JUST
SWEAT LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME.
[ Chuckles ]
I'M GOING TO TRY TO BREAK OUT
OF THIS HEAT SHIELD.
OH, WAIT A MINUTE.
UH, I MEAN, UH, WHY DON'T
YOU LET ME TRY IT FIRST,
AND, UH, THEN WE'LL SEE
WHAT HAPPENS?
NO, YOU STAY PUT.
YOU'RE THE... THE RESERVE.
NOW, DON'T COMMIT YOURSELF
UNTIL THERE'S ABSOLUTELY
NOTHING LEFT.
NOW THAT, CHIEF, IS AN ORDER.
AYE, SIR.
NOW.
CHIEF.
WHAT HAPPENED?
I'M... I'M NOT SURE I KNOW.
WELL, ADMIRAL,
STILL ON YOUR FEET.
YOU'RE A VERY DETERMINED FELLOW.
AS YOU SEEM TO BE.
YES.
I'LL SHOW YOU WHY.
THIS IS A HOMING DEVICE.
THERE ARE OTHERS OF US
ON THE WAY HERE...
A GREAT MANY OTHERS...
AND THIS DEVICE WILL GUIDE THEM
SAFELY TO THIS SOURCE OF ENERGY.
BUT YOU STILL DON'T
HAVE THE ENERGY.
AH, BUT WE WILL.
LET ME SHOW YOU SOMETHING ELSE.
THESE ARE OUR SHIPS.
THEY'RE HEADING STRAIGHT
FOR EARTH.
NOW, IF YOU ACTIVATE SATO,
THEY'LL COME AS FRIENDS...
AND THEN CONTINUE
ON THEIR JOURNEY.
BUT IF YOU DO NOT,
THEY'LL COME AS DESTROYERS.
EITHER WAY, THEY'LL BE HERE
WITHIN THE HOUR.
WELL?
DO THEY COME AS FRIENDS
OR ENEMIES?
I'LL GIVE YOU 30 SECONDS
TO MAKE UP YOUR MIND.
YOU WIN.
BUT I'LL NEED SOME SPECIAL
EQUIPMENT THAT'S ABOARD SEAVIEW.
I'LL GO GET IT.
UH, JUST A MOMENT, ADMIRAL.
DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ME.
CAPTAIN CRANE WILL BRING
THE EQUIPMENT YOU NEED.
[ High-pitched Humming ]
LEE, UH, WE'RE GOING
TO ACTIVATE SATO.
- ADMIRAL, YOU CAN'T.
- LET'S GET ON WITH IT, ADMIRAL.
I'LL NEED A SUIT AND GLOVES
TO PROTECT ME AGAINST THE HIGH
VOLTAGE BUILT INTO THE CONTROLS.
YOU'LL FIND THEM IN
THE REACTOR ROOM IN,
UH, LOCKER "B."
I, UH...
I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD.
WILL YOU DO IT?
AYE, SIR.
WHY LOCKER "B"?
HE KNOWS THERE ARE NO SUITS
OR GLOVES IN THERE.
[ Beeping ]
THE ADMIRAL WAS TRYING
TO TELL ME SOMETHING.
WHY RADIATION GUNS?
[ Sighs ]
CHIP, IN THE LAB...
WE HIT THE CAPSULE WITH X-RAY
AND IT OPENED.
DON'T YOU SEE?
THEIR ONE WEAKNESS IS RADIATION.
GENERAL HAINES SAID
THE CAPSULE WE SENT BACK FOR
ANALYSIS REACTED TO RADIATION.
THAT'S RIGHT. THAT'S RIGHT. THE
ONLY WAY WE CAN DESTROY THESE
THINGS IS THROUGH RADIATION.
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO
WITH THAT?
FILL IT TO FULL CAPACITY
WITH RADIATION.
GET ANOTHER ONE.
THESE ARE STILL EXPERIMENTAL.
THEY'VE NEVER BEEN USED
WITH A FULL CHARGE BEFORE.
RIGHT NOW WE DON'T HAVE
ANY OTHER CHOICE.
WE'VE ONLY USED THIS REACTOR
TO RECHARGE PORTABLE
ATOMIC ENGINES.
WE'VE NEVER USED IT
TO LOAD WEAPONS BEFORE.
THERE'S ALWAYS THE FIRST TIME.
ALL RIGHT, GET READY.
ALL SET.
GO!
[ Humming ]
THAT'S ENOUGH, LEE.
NO. I WANT THEM AS
FULLY CHARGED AS THEY CAN GET.
OKAY, CUT IT OFF.
[ Humming Stops ]
LET'S GET 'EM
INTO THE GUNS.
WHEN WE FIRE THESE
AT THOSE ELECTRICAL THINGS,
WHAT DO YOU THINK'LL HAPPEN?
IF WE'RE STILL ALIVE AFTER
WE FIRE, I'LL LET YOU KNOW.
HOLD IT!
[ Groans ]
[ Electricity Crackling ]
WELL, THERE THEY GO, LEE.
WITH THEIR HOMING DEVICE
DESTROYED, THEY'RE HEADING
FOR SOME OTHER DESTINATION.
HOW DID YOU GUESS THEY
COULDN'T STAND THE EXPOSURE
TO THE RADIATION?
WELL, THE WATCH TOLD ME.
SEE, WHEN THE CRYSTAL
BROKE DURING THE FIGHT,
THE CREATURE WAS EXPOSED
TO ITS RADIUM DIAL AND, UH...
HMM. WELL, THAT WAS
ENOUGH TO DESTROY HIM.
TALK ABOUT
THE NICK OF TIME.
[ Chuckles ]
