- [man narrating] For more
- than a year, ominous rumors...

- had been privately circulating
- among high-level western leaders...
- 4
- 00:00:48,679 --> 00:00:52,582
- That the soviet union had been at
- work on what was darkly hinted to be...
- 5
- 00:00:52,650 --> 00:00:56,387
- The ultimate weapon, a doomsday device.
- 6

- To the perpetually fog-shrouded
- wasteland below the arctic peaks...
- 8
- 00:01:04,496 --> 00:01:06,463
- Of the Zhokhov islands.
- 9
- 00:01:06,531 --> 00:01:09,466
- What they were building, or
- why it should be located...
- 10
- 00:01:09,534 --> 00:01:14,438
- In such a remote and desolate
- place, no one could say.

- General Ripper, sir.
- Group captain Mandrake speaking.
- 14
- 00:03:48,025 --> 00:03:51,195
- This is general Ripper speaking.
- Yes, sir.
- 15
- 00:03:51,262 --> 00:03:54,731
- - Do you recognize my voice?
- - I do, sir. Why?
- 16
- 00:03:54,799 --> 00:03:57,601
- - Why do you think?
- - I don't know, sir.
- 17
- 00:03:57,669 --> 00:04:00,270
- We spoke a few moments ago
- on the phone, didn't we?
- 18
- 00:04:00,338 --> 00:04:05,609
- You don't think I'd ask unless it
- was pretty damned important, do you?
- 19
- 00:04:05,677 --> 00:04:09,379
- No, I don't, sir. Let's see
- if we can stay on the ball.
- 20
- 00:04:09,447 --> 00:04:12,849
- Has the wing confirmed holding
- at their fail-safe points?
- 21
- 00:04:12,917 --> 00:04:15,785
- Yes, sir. The confirmations
- have just come in.
- 22
- 00:04:15,853 --> 00:04:19,623
- Very well. Now, listen to me carefully.
- 23
- 00:04:19,691 --> 00:04:22,426
- The base is being put on condition red.
- 24
- 00:04:22,493 --> 00:04:24,661
- I want this flashed to
- all sections immediately.
- 25
- 00:04:24,729 --> 00:04:28,064
- Condition red. Jolly good.
- Keeps the men on their toes.
- 26
- 00:04:28,132 --> 00:04:33,337
- - Group captain, I'm afraid this is not an exercise.
- - Not an exercise, sir?
- 27
- 00:04:33,404 --> 00:04:37,574
- I shouldn't tell you this,
- Mandrake, but you're a good officer.
- 28
- 00:04:37,642 --> 00:04:41,645
- You have a right to know. It
- looks like we're in a shooting war.
- 29
- 00:04:41,713 --> 00:04:46,350
- Oh, hell. Are the
- russians involved, sir?
- 30
- 00:04:46,417 --> 00:04:49,286
- That's all I've been told.
- It came in on the red phone.
- 31
- 00:04:49,354 --> 00:04:53,490
- My orders are for this base to be
- sealed tight. That's what I mean to do.
- 32
- 00:04:53,558 --> 00:04:57,127
- Now, I want you to transmit plan R.
- 33
- 00:04:57,194 --> 00:04:59,129
- R for robert, to the wing.
- 34
- 00:04:59,196 --> 00:05:02,599
- Plan r for robert.
- Is it that bad, sir?
- 35
- 00:05:02,667 --> 00:05:05,168
- It's pretty hairy.
- Yes, sir.
- 36
- 00:05:05,236 --> 00:05:07,271
- Plan r for robert, sir.
- 37
- 00:05:07,338 --> 00:05:10,641
- Now, last and possibly most important,
- 38
- 00:05:10,708 --> 00:05:14,311
- I want all privately owned radios
- to be immediately impounded.
- 39
- 00:05:14,379 --> 00:05:18,982
- They might be used to issue
- instructions to saboteurs.
- 40
- 00:05:19,049 --> 00:05:22,152
- As I previously arranged, air
- police will have lists of all owners.
- 41
- 00:05:22,219 --> 00:05:26,256
- I want every one collected
- without exception. Yes, sir.
- 42
- 00:05:26,324 --> 00:05:28,392
- After you've done

- Airborne 24 hours a day.
- 49
- 00:06:05,963 --> 00:06:10,834
- Each b-52 can deliver a nuclear
- bomb load of 50 megatons,
- 50
- 00:06:10,901 --> 00:06:15,905
- Equal to 16 times the total explosive
- force of all the bombs and shells...
- 51
- 00:06:15,973 --> 00:06:20,711
- Used by all the armies in World War II.

- 00:06:20,778 --> 00:06:23,747
- Based in america, the airborne
- alert force is deployed...

- From the persian gulf
- to the arctic ocean.
- 54
- 00:06:26,784 --> 00:06:29,519
- But they have one
- geographical factor in common.
- 55
- 00:06:29,587 --> 00:06:33,590
- They are all two hours from
- their targets inside russia.

- But I just got a message
- from base over the c.R.M. 114.
- 60
- 00:08:00,912 --> 00:08:02,946

- Yes, sir, I have.

- Goldie, how many times
- have I told you guys...
- 65
- 00:08:21,599 --> 00:08:24,701
- I don't want horsin'
- around on the airplane?
- 66
- 00:08:24,769 --> 00:08:27,170
- I'm not horsing around,
- sir. That's how it decodes.
- 67
- 00:08:27,237 --> 00:08:30,907
- I've been to one world
- fair, a picnic and a rodeo,
- 68

- <i>And that's the stupidest

- Yes, sir, it is.
- 71
- 00:08:38,415 --> 00:08:40,984
- There's just gotta be somethin' wrong.
- 72
- 00:08:41,051 --> 00:08:43,453
- Wait a second. I'm comin' back.
- 73
- 00:09:17,955 --> 00:09:21,691
- Maybe you'd better get
- a confirmation from base.
- 74
- 00:09:21,759 --> 00:09:24,060
- Yes, sir.
- 75
- 00:09:43,247 --> 00:09:46,783
- Major kong, is it possible this
- is some kind of loyalty test?
- 76
- 00:09:46,851 --> 00:09:50,554
- You know, give the go code and then
- recall to see who would actually go?
- 77
- 00:09:50,621 --> 00:09:54,925
- Ain't nobody ever got the go code yet.
- 78
- 00:09:54,992 --> 00:09:57,226
- Old Ripper wouldn't
- be givin' us plan r...

- 00:09:57,294 --> 00:09:59,796
- Unless them ruskies had
- already clobbered washington...

- And a lot of other towns
- with a sneak attack.

- Nuclear combat toe-to-toe
- with the ruskies.

- of a hand at makin' speeches.
- 85
- 00:10:39,070 --> 00:10:42,371
- But I got a fair idea that
- something doggone important...
- 86
- 00:10:42,439 --> 00:10:45,041
- Is goin' on back there.
- 87
- 00:10:45,109 --> 00:10:48,377
- I got a fair idea of the kind
- of personal emotions that...
- 88
- 00:10:48,445 --> 00:10:52,115
- Some of you fellows may be thinkin'.
- 89

- wouldn't be human beings...

- personal feelin's about nuclear combat.

- Tell ya somethin' else.
- 95
- 00:11:12,069 --> 00:11:16,873
- If this thing turns out to be half
- as important as I figure it might be,
- 96
- 00:11:16,941 --> 00:11:21,377
- I'd say you're all in line for
- some important promotions...
- 97
- 00:11:21,445 --> 00:11:24,814
- And personal citations
- when this thing's over.

- But he can't come to

- 107
- 00:12:05,589 --> 00:12:08,892
- This is his secretary miss scott.
- 108

- Freddie, how are you? Fine. And you?
- 109
- 00:12:13,597 --> 00:12:18,301
- We were just catching up on
- some of the general's paperwork.
- 110

- Freddie, he's very
- tied up at the moment.

- I'm afraid he can't come to
- the phone. Just a minute.

- General Turgidson,
- colonel puntrich calling.

- <i>Aw, for pete's-- find
- out what he wants.</i>
- 116
- 00:12:41,125 --> 00:12:45,095
- Freddie, the general is in
- the powder room right now.
- 117
- 00:12:45,162 --> 00:12:48,631
- Could you tell me what it's about?
- 118
- 00:12:48,699 --> 00:12:52,936
- Just a second. Apparently they monitored
- a transmission eight minutes ago...
- 119
- 00:12:53,003 --> 00:12:56,106
- From burpelson air force base.
- 120
- 00:12:56,173 --> 00:13:02,078
- Right. It was directed to the
- 843rd bomb wing on airborne alert.
- 121
- 00:13:03,513 --> 00:13:07,683
- It decoded as wing attack plan r.

- <i>Do I have to think of everything?</i>
- 124
- 00:13:15,126 --> 00:13:19,829
- The general suggests you call general
- Ripper, the 843rd base commander.
- 125
- 00:13:19,897 --> 00:13:23,166
- Oh. All communications are dead!
- 126

- <i>Bull! Tell him to do it himself.</i>
- 127
- 00:13:26,737 --> 00:13:31,641
- Freddie, the general asks if you
- could possibly try again yourself.
- 128
- 00:13:31,708 --> 00:13:36,379
- I see. He says he's tried personally
- several times, but everything is dead.
- 129
- 00:13:36,446 --> 00:13:40,616

- Yeah. Well, are you sure it's plan r?

- 00:13:57,935 --> 00:14:02,172
- Huh? What's cooking on
- the threat board? Nothing!
- 134
- 00:14:02,239 --> 00:14:05,574
- Nothing at all?
- 135
- 00:14:05,642 --> 00:14:09,212
- I don't like the look of this, fred.
- 136
- 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,948
- Tell you what you better do, old buddy.
- 137
- 00:14:12,016 --> 00:14:15,551
- Give elmo and charlie a blast and
- bump everything up to condition red.
- 138
- 00:14:15,619 --> 00:14:17,854
- Stand by the blower.
- I'll get back to you.
- 139
- 00:14:17,922 --> 00:14:21,024
- What's up? Nothing.
- 140
- 00:14:21,091 --> 00:14:25,028
- Where's my shorts? On the
- floor. Where are you going?
- 141
- 00:14:25,095 --> 00:14:29,966
- No place. I thought I might
- mosey over to the war room...
- 142
- 00:14:30,034 --> 00:14:32,168
- For a few minutes to see
- what's doing over there.
- 143
- 00:14:32,236 --> 00:14:35,338
- It's 3:00 in the morning.
- The air force never sleeps.
- 144
- 00:14:35,405 --> 00:14:40,043
- Buck, honey, I'm not sleepy either.
- 145
- 00:14:41,578 --> 00:14:44,881
- I know how it is, baby.
- 146
- 00:14:44,949 --> 00:14:47,783
- Tell you what you do.
- 147
- 00:14:47,852 --> 00:14:53,323
- You just start your countdown, and old
- bucky will be back here before you can say,
- 148
- 00:14:53,390 --> 00:14:55,624
- "blastoff!"

- [Ripper over P.A. System] your commie has
- no regard for human life, not even his own.
- 150
- 00:15:01,031 --> 00:15:04,968
- For this reason, men, I
- want to impress upon you...
- 151
- 00:15:05,035 --> 00:15:09,038
- The need for extreme watchfulness.
- 152
- 00:15:09,106 --> 00:15:12,575
- The enemy may come individually
- or he may come in strength.
- 153
- 00:15:12,642 --> 00:15:14,911

- First, trust no one,

- Whatever his uniform or rank,
- unless he is known to you personally.

- <i>Second, anyone or

- Within 200 yards of the
- perimeter is to be fired upon.

- 00:15:41,805 --> 00:15:46,742
- Third, if in doubt, shoot first
- and ask questions afterward.
- 162
- 00:15:46,810 --> 00:15:51,547
- [clicking stops] I would sooner accept
- a few casualties through accident,

- Than lose the entire base and its
- personnel through carelessness.
- 164
- 00:15:55,619 --> 00:16:00,356
- Any variation on these rules
- must come from me personally.
- 165
- 00:16:00,424 --> 00:16:03,393

- 00:26:19,376 --> 00:26:22,912
- If the normal chain of
- command has been disrupted.
- 309
- 00:26:22,980 --> 00:26:25,748
- You approved it, sir. You must remember.
- 310
- 00:26:25,816 --> 00:26:29,752
- <i>Surely you must recall,
- sir, when senator beaufort...</i>
- 311
- 00:26:29,820 --> 00:26:34,223
- <i>Made that big hassle about our
- deterrent lacking credibility.</i>
- 312
- 00:26:34,290 --> 00:26:39,161
- The idea was for plan r to be
- a sort of retaliatory safeguard.
- 313
- 00:26:39,229 --> 00:26:41,597
- A safeguard?
- 314
- 00:26:41,665 --> 00:26:44,400
- I admit the human element
- seems to have failed us here.
- 315
- 00:26:44,467 --> 00:26:47,937
- But the idea was to discourage
- the ruskies from any hope...
- 316
- 00:26:48,005 --> 00:26:50,472
- That they could knock out
- washington-- and yourself, sir--
- 317
- 00:26:50,541 --> 00:26:52,942
- As part of a general sneak attack...
- 318
- 00:26:53,010 --> 00:26:56,946
- And escape retaliation because of
- lack of proper command and control.
- 319
- 00:26:57,014 --> 00:27:01,651
- I assume the planes will return automatically
- once they reach their fail-safe points?
- 320
- 00:27:01,718 --> 00:27:07,322
- I'm afraid not. The planes were
- holding at their fail-safe points...
- 321
- 00:27:07,390 --> 00:27:09,391
- When the go code was issued.
- 322
- 00:27:09,459 --> 00:27:13,930
- Once they fly beyond fail-safe, they do
- not require a second order to proceed.
- 323
- 00:27:13,997 --> 00:27:15,965
- They will continue until
- they reach their targets.
- 324
- 00:27:16,033 --> 00:27:19,101
- Why haven't you radioed the planes,
- countermandering the go code?
- 325
- 00:27:19,169 --> 00:27:23,973
- Well, I'm afraid we're unable to
- communicate with any of the aircraft.
- 326
- 00:27:24,041 --> 00:27:28,510
- Why? As you may recall,
- sir-- [clears throat]
- 327
- 00:27:28,579 --> 00:27:32,314
- One of the provisions
- of plan r provides...
- 328
- 00:27:32,382 --> 00:27:36,953
- That once the go code is received,
- 329
- 00:27:37,020 --> 00:27:40,656
- The normal s.S.B.
- Radios in the aircraft...
- 330
- 00:27:40,724 --> 00:27:43,258
- Are switched into a
- special coded device,
- 331
- 00:27:43,326 --> 00:27:46,328
- Which, I believe, is
- designated as c.R.M. 114.
- 332
- 00:27:46,396 --> 00:27:50,499
- In order to prevent the enemy from
- issuing fake or confusing orders,
- 333
- 00:27:50,567 --> 00:27:54,604
- C.R.M. 114 is designed
- not to receive at all,
- 334
- 00:27:54,671 --> 00:28:00,109
- Unless the message is proceeded by the
- correct three-letter code group prefix.
- 335
- 00:28:00,176 --> 00:28:05,781
- Do you mean to tell me, general Turgidson,
- you will be unable to recall the aircraft?
- 336
- 00:28:05,849 --> 00:28:09,418
- That's the size of it. However, we
- are plowing through every possible...
- 337
- 00:28:09,486 --> 00:28:11,520
- Three-letter combination of the code.
- 338
- 00:28:11,588 --> 00:28:16,859
- But since there are 17,000 permutations,
- 339
- 00:28:16,927 --> 00:28:20,462
- It's going to take us about
- two-and-a-half days to transmit them all.
- 340
- 00:28:20,530 --> 00:28:23,265
- How soon did you say the planes
- would penetrate russian radar cover?
- 341
- 00:28:23,333 --> 00:28:25,300
- About 18 minutes from now.
- 342
- 00:28:25,368 --> 00:28:28,403
- - Are you in contact with general Ripper?
- - No, sir.
- 343
- 00:28:28,471 --> 00:28:31,841
- General Ripper sealed off the
- base and cut off communications.
- 344
- 00:28:31,908 --> 00:28:33,542
- Where did you get this information?
- 345
- 00:28:33,610 --> 00:28:37,346
- General Ripper called strategic
- air command headquarters...
- 346
- 00:28:37,413 --> 00:28:39,849
- Shortly after he issued the go code.
- 347
- 00:28:39,916 --> 00:28:42,685
- I have a portion of the
- transcript of that conversation,
- 348
- 00:28:42,753 --> 00:28:46,188
- <i>If you'd like me to read it. Read it.</i>
- 349
- 00:28:46,256 --> 00:28:49,959
- [coughs] the duty officer
- asked general Ripper...
- 350
- 00:28:50,027 --> 00:28:53,262
- To confirm the fact that he had
- issued the go code, and he said,
- 351
- 00:28:53,329 --> 00:28:58,600
- "yes, gentlemen, they are on their
- way in and no one can bring them back.
- 352
- 00:28:58,669 --> 00:29:01,570
- <i>"for the sake of our
- country and our way of life,</i>
- 353
- 00:29:01,638 --> 00:29:04,206
- <i>"I suggest you get the
- rest of sac in after them.</i>
- 354
- 00:29:04,274 --> 00:29:09,178
- "otherwise we will be totally
- destroyed by red retaliation.
- 355
- 00:29:09,245 --> 00:29:14,684
- "my boys will give you the best
- kind of start: 1,400 megatons worth.
- 356
- 00:29:14,751 --> 00:29:18,187
- "and you sure as hell
- won't stop them now.
- 357
- 00:29:18,254 --> 00:29:21,256
- <i>"so let's get going.
- There's no other choice.</i>
- 358
- 00:29:21,324 --> 00:29:24,493
- <i>"god willing, we will prevail...</i>
- 359
- 00:29:24,561 --> 00:29:27,063
- <i>"in peace and freedom from fear...</i>
- 360
- 00:29:27,130 --> 00:29:29,498
- "and in true health
- through the purity...
- 361
- 00:29:29,566 --> 00:29:33,468
- "and essence of our natural...
- 362
- 00:29:33,536 --> 00:29:35,971
- "fluids.
- 363
- 00:29:36,039 --> 00:29:38,874
- God bless you all."
- 364
- 00:29:39,876 --> 00:29:42,544
- Then he hung up.
- 365
- 00:29:42,612 --> 00:29:46,315
- <i>We're still trying to figure out
- the meaning of that last phrase, sir.</i>
- 366
- 00:29:46,382 --> 00:29:50,619
- There's nothing to figure out.
- This man is obviously a psychotic.
- 367
- 00:29:50,687 --> 00:29:55,791
- I'd like to hold off judgment on a thing
- like that until all the facts were in.
- 368
- 00:29:55,859 --> 00:30:00,529
- General Turgidson, when you
- instituted the human reliability tests,
- 369
- 00:30:00,597 --> 00:30:04,499
- You assured me there was no possibility
- of such a thing ever occurring.
- 370
- 00:30:06,036 --> 00:30:10,606
- I don't think it's fair to
- condemn a whole program...
- 371
- 00:30:10,673 --> 00:30:13,242
- Because of a single slipup, sir.
- 372
- 00:30:13,309 --> 00:30:15,811
- I want to speak to general Ripper
- on the telephone personally.
- 373
- 00:30:15,879 --> 00:30:17,446
- That's impossible.
- 374
- 00:30:17,513 --> 00:30:21,416
- General Turgidson, I am becoming
- less and less interested...
- 375
- 00:30:21,484 --> 00:30:25,354
- In your estimates of what
- is possible and impossible.
- 376
- 00:30:25,421 --> 00:30:28,690
- [president] general faceman. Yes, sir?
- 377
- 00:30:28,759 --> 00:30:31,326
- Are there any army units
- stationed near burpelson?
- 378
- 00:30:31,394 --> 00:30:34,964
- I'll just check, sir.
- 379
- 00:30:35,031 --> 00:30:38,267
- [beeping]
- 380
- 00:30:38,334 --> 00:30:41,170
- Hello?
- 381
- 00:30:41,238 --> 00:30:45,841
- I told you never to call me
- here. Don't you know where I am?
- 382
- 00:30:45,909 --> 00:30:48,244
- Now, look, baby, I
- can't talk to you now.
- 383
- 00:30:48,311 --> 00:30:50,279
- My president needs me.
- 384
- 00:30:50,346 --> 00:30:52,882
- <i>Of course, bucky would
- rather be there with you.</i>
- 385
- 00:30:52,949 --> 00:30:56,952
- What do you think about
- civil defense? Hmm.
- 386
- 00:30:57,020 --> 00:31:00,289
- Of course, it isn't only
- physical. [men talking, indistinct]
- 387
- 00:31:00,356 --> 00:31:03,092
- I deeply respect you as a human being.
- 388
- 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,996
- Someday I'm going to make
- you mrs. Buck Turgidson.
- 389
- 00:31:07,063 --> 00:31:10,166
- Yeah, all right. Listen,
- you go back to sleep, hon.
- 390
- 00:31:10,233 --> 00:31:13,235
- Bucky will be back
- there as soon as he can.
- 391
- 00:31:13,303 --> 00:31:18,540
- All right. Listen, sug! Don't
- forget to say your prayers.
- 392
- 00:31:24,614 --> 00:31:28,717
- Apparently the 23rd airborne division...
- 393
- 00:31:28,785 --> 00:31:31,520
- Is stationed seven
- miles away at alvarado.
- 394
- 00:31:31,587 --> 00:31:35,958
- General faceman, I want them to enter
- the base, locate general Ripper...
- 395
- 00:31:36,026 --> 00:31:38,360
- And put him in immediate
- telephone contact with me.
- 396
- 00:31:38,428 --> 00:31:41,730
- <i>Yes, sir. [Turgidson] Mr. President?</i>
- 397
- 00:31:41,798 --> 00:31:44,599
- If I may advise. Under a condition red,
- 398
- 00:31:44,667 --> 00:31:47,970
- It is standard procedure
- that the base be sealed off...
- 399
- 00:31:48,038 --> 00:31:50,706
- And the base defended
- by base security troops.
- 400
- 00:31:50,773 --> 00:31:55,244
- Any force trying to enter would
- certainly encounter heavy casualties.
- 401
- 00:31:55,312 --> 00:31:59,014
- General Turgidson, with all due
- respect for your defense team,
- 402
- 00:31:59,082 --> 00:32:02,051
- My boys can brush them aside
- without too much trouble.
- 403
- 00:32:02,118 --> 00:32:07,723
- Mr. President, there are one or two
- points I'd like to make, if I may.
- 404
- 00:32:07,790 --> 00:32:10,192
- Go ahead, general.
- 405
- 00:32:10,260 --> 00:32:16,232
- One, our hopes for recalling
- the 843rd bomb wing...
- 406
- 00:32:16,299 --> 00:32:20,769
- Are quickly being reduced to a
- very low order of probability.
- 407
- 00:32:20,837 --> 00:32:23,905
- Two, in less than 15 minutes from now,
- 408
- 00:32:23,973 --> 00:32:26,942
- The ruskies will be making
- radar contact with the planes.
- 409
- 00:32:27,009 --> 00:32:31,113
- Three, when they do, they are
- going to go absolutely ape.
- 410
- 00:32:31,180 --> 00:32:33,716
- They are going to strike
- back with everything they got.
- 411
- 00:32:33,783 --> 00:32:37,018
- Four, if prior to this time...
- 412
- 00:32:37,086 --> 00:32:40,289
- We have done nothing to suppress
- their retaliatory capabilities,
- 413
- 00:32:40,357 --> 00:32:43,925
- We will suffer virtual annihilation.
- 414
- 00:32:43,993 --> 00:32:46,962
- Now,
- 415
- 00:32:47,029 --> 00:32:49,398
- Five,
- 416
- 00:32:49,466 --> 00:32:53,168
- If, on the other hand,
- 417
- 00:32:53,236 --> 00:32:57,139
- We were to immediately launch an
- all-out and coordinated attack...
- 418
- 00:32:57,206 --> 00:32:59,475
- On all their airfields
- and missile bases,
- 419
- 00:32:59,542 --> 00:33:02,478
- We'd stand a damn good chance of
- catching 'em with their pants down.
- 420
- 00:33:02,545 --> 00:33:04,680
- Hell, we got a five-to-one
- missile superiority as it is.
- 421
- 00:33:04,748 --> 00:33:07,416
- <i>We could easily assign three
- missiles to every target...</i>
- 422
- 00:33:07,484 --> 00:33:11,052
- And still have a very effective
- reserve force for any other contingency.
- 423
- 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:16,224
- <i>Ah, six! An unofficial study, which
- we undertook of this eventuality,</i>
- 424
- 00:33:16,293 --> 00:33:21,163
- Indicated that we would destroy
- 90% of their nuclear capabilities.
- 425
- 00:33:21,230 --> 00:33:23,999
- We would therefore prevail and suffer...
- 426
- 00:33:24,066 --> 00:33:27,703
- Only modest and acceptable civilian
- casualties from their remaining force,
- 427
- 00:33:27,771 --> 00:33:31,006
- Which would be badly
- damaged and uncoordinated.
- 428
- 00:33:31,073 --> 00:33:34,443
- General, it is the avowed
- policy of our country...
- 429
- 00:33:34,511 --> 00:33:37,078
- Never to strike first
- with nuclear weapons.
- 430
- 00:33:37,146 --> 00:33:41,883
- Mr. President, general Ripper has
- already invalidated that policy.
- 431
- 00:33:41,951 --> 00:33:46,388
- That was not an act of national policy.
- There are still alternatives open to us.
- 432
- 00:33:46,456 --> 00:33:51,694
- Mr. President, we are rapidly
- approaching a moment of truth,
- 433
- 00:33:51,761 --> 00:33:55,664
- Both for ourselves as human beings
- and for the life of our nation.
- 434
- 00:33:55,732 --> 00:33:58,400
- Now, truth is not
- always a pleasant thing.
- 435
- 00:33:58,468 --> 00:34:03,639
- But it is necessary now to make a choice.
- To choose between two admittedly regrettable,
- 436
- 00:34:03,707 --> 00:34:07,343
- But nevertheless distinguishable,
- postwar environments.
- 437
- 00:34:07,410 --> 00:34:09,478
- One where you got 20
- million people killed,
- 438
- 00:34:09,546 --> 00:34:12,013
- And the other were you got
- 150 million people killed.
- 439
- 00:34:12,081 --> 00:34:15,083
- You're talking about mass
- murder, general, not war.
- 440
- 00:34:15,151 --> 00:34:18,887
- Mr. President, I'm not saying
- we wouldn't get our hair mussed.
- 441
- 00:34:18,955 --> 00:34:23,492
- But I do say no more than 10
- to 20 million killed. Tops!
- 442
- 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,561
- Depending on the breaks.
- 443
- 00:34:25,628 --> 00:34:29,598
- I will not go down in history as the
- greatest mass murderer since adolph hitler!
- 444
- 00:34:29,666 --> 00:34:33,335
- It might be better if you were more
- concerned with the american people...
- 445
- 00:34:33,403 --> 00:34:35,671
- Than with your image
- in the history books.
- 446
- 00:34:35,739 --> 00:34:41,309
- General Turgidson, I've heard quite
- sufficient from you. Thank you very much.
- 447
- 00:34:41,378 --> 00:34:43,512
- Mr. President, they have the
- ambassador waiting upstairs.
- 448
- 00:34:43,580 --> 00:34:45,581
- Good. Any difficulty?
- 449
- 00:34:45,648 --> 00:34:48,116
- He's having a fit about that
- squad of m.P.S. Can't be helped.
- 450
- 00:34:48,184 --> 00:34:50,118
- Have him brought here straightaway.
- 451
- 00:34:50,186 --> 00:34:52,588
- Yes, sir.
- Is that--
- 452
- 00:34:52,655 --> 00:34:56,525
- - Is that the russian ambassador?
- - Yes, it is, general.
- 453
- 00:34:56,593 --> 00:35:01,530
- A-am I to understand
- the russian ambassador...
- 454
- 00:35:01,598 --> 00:35:04,032
- Is to be admitted
- entrance to the war room?
- 455
- 00:35:04,100 --> 00:35:07,002
- Correct. He is here on my orders.
- 456
- 00:35:09,105 --> 00:35:12,107
- I-I-I don't know exactly
- how to put this, sir.
- 457
- 00:35:12,174 --> 00:35:16,044
- But are you aware of what a

- Seven-tenths of this
- earth's surface is water.
- 613
- 00:46:39,861 --> 00:46:45,233
- Why, do you realize that
- 70% of you is water?
- 614
- 00:46:45,301 --> 00:46:47,835
- Good lord.
- 615
- 00:46:47,903 --> 00:46:52,974
- And as human beings, you and
- I need fresh, pure water...
- 616
- 00:46:53,041 --> 00:46:56,644
- To replenish our precious
- bodily fluids. Yes.
- 617
- 00:46:56,712 --> 00:47:01,649
- You beginning to understand? Yes.
- 618
- 00:47:01,717 --> 00:47:06,654
- [chuckling] Mandrake?
- 619
- 00:47:06,722 --> 00:47:12,160
- Mandrake, have you never wondered
- why I drink only distilled water...
- 620
- 00:47:12,228 --> 00:47:16,531
- Or rainwater and only
- pure grain alcohol?
- 621
- 00:47:16,599 --> 00:47:20,968
- Well, it did occur to me, jack. Yes.
- 622
- 00:47:21,036 --> 00:47:25,940
- Have you ever heard of a thing
- called fluoridation of water?
- 623
- 00:47:26,008 --> 00:47:30,077
- Uh, yes, I have heard
- of that, jack. Yes.
- 624
- 00:47:30,146 --> 00:47:34,915
- Do you know what it is? No.
- No. I don't know what it is.
- 625
- 00:47:34,983 --> 00:47:39,120
- [gunfire continues] do you
- realize that fluoridation...
- 626
- 00:47:39,188 --> 00:47:41,956
- Is the most monstrously conceived...
- 627
- 00:47:42,024 --> 00:47:44,892
- And dangerous communist plot
- we have ever had to face?
- 628
- 00:47:50,966 --> 00:47:53,268
- Two can play at that game, soldier.
- 629
- 00:47:58,274 --> 00:48:01,809
- That's nice shooting, soldier!
- 630

- <i>[gunfire continues]</i>
- 631
- 00:48:25,467 --> 00:48:27,602
- Mandrake, come here!
- 632
- 00:48:27,670 --> 00:48:32,773
- <i>You calling me, jack? Come over
- here and help me with this belt.</i>
- 633
- 00:48:32,841 --> 00:48:37,778
- I, uh-- I haven't had
- very much experience,
- 634
- 00:48:37,846 --> 00:48:41,449
- You know, with those
- sort of machines, jack.
- 635
- 00:48:41,517 --> 00:48:44,652
- I've only ever pressed a
- button in my old spitfire.
- 636
- 00:48:44,720 --> 00:48:46,654
- Mandrake, in the name of her
- majesty and the continental congress,
- 637
- 00:48:46,722 --> 00:48:48,690
- Come here and feed me this belt, boy.
- 638
- 00:48:48,757 --> 00:48:53,695
- Jack, I'd love to come, but
- what's happened, you see,
- 639
- 00:48:53,762 --> 00:48:57,465
- The string in my leg is gone.
- 640
- 00:48:57,533 --> 00:49:00,468
- <i>The what? The string. I never told you.</i>
- 641
- 00:49:00,536 --> 00:49:05,240
- But you see, I got a gammy
- leg-- oh, dear. Gone. Shot off.
- 642
- 00:49:05,307 --> 00:49:11,412
- [gunfire continues] Mandrake, come
- here. The red coats are comin'.
- 643
- 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:16,684
- When it is detonated, it will
- produce enough radioactive fallout...
- 644
- 00:49:16,752 --> 00:49:19,887
- So that in ten months the
- surface of the earth...
- 645
- 00:49:19,955 --> 00:49:22,457
- Will be as dead as the moon! Ah!
- 646
- 00:49:22,524 --> 00:49:24,592
- Come on, de sadesky!
- That's ridiculous!
- 647
- 00:49:24,660 --> 00:49:28,863
- Our studies show even the worst fallout
- is down to a safe level after two weeks.
- 648
- 00:49:28,930 --> 00:49:33,868
- You've obviously never heard of
- cobalt thorium g. What about it?
- 649
- 00:49:33,935 --> 00:49:38,005
- Cobalt thorium g has a
- radioactive half-life of 93 years.
- 650
- 00:49:38,073 --> 00:49:41,242
- If you take 50 h bombs in
- the 100 megaton range...
- 651
- 00:49:41,310 --> 00:49:43,811
- And jacket them with cobalt thorium g,
- 652
- 00:49:43,879 --> 00:49:48,483
- When they are exploded they
- will produce a doomsday shroud,
- 653
- 00:49:48,550 --> 00:49:52,720
- A lethal cloud of radioactivity
- which will encircle the earth...
- 654
- 00:49:52,788 --> 00:49:55,356
- For 93 years!
- 655
- 00:49:55,424 --> 00:49:58,859
- What a load of commie
- bull. I mean, after all.
- 656
- 00:49:58,927 --> 00:50:02,597
- I'm afraid I don't
- understand something, alexi.
- 657
- 00:50:02,665 --> 00:50:06,334
- Is the premier threatening to explode
- this if our planes carry out their attack?
- 658
- 00:50:06,402 --> 00:50:09,003
- No, sir. It is not a
- thing a sane man would do.
- 659
- 00:50:09,070 --> 00:50:12,006
- The doomsday machine is designed
- to trigger itself automatically.
- 660
- 00:50:12,073 --> 00:50:14,375
- But, surely, you can
- disarm it somehow. No.
- 661
- 00:50:14,443 --> 00:50:18,546
- It is designed to explode if any
- attempt is made to un-trigger it.
- 662
- 00:50:18,614 --> 00:50:21,115
- Automatically? It's a commie trick!
- 663
- 00:50:21,183 --> 00:50:23,618
- We're wasting valuable
- time. Look at the big board!
- 664
- 00:50:23,686 --> 00:50:26,454
- They're getting ready to clobber us!
- 665
- 00:50:26,522 --> 00:50:30,257
- This is absolute madness. Why
- should you build such a thing?
- 666
- 00:50:30,326 --> 00:50:32,327
- There were those of us
- who fought against it.
- 667
- 00:50:32,394 --> 00:50:35,363
- But in the end we could not keep up with
- the expense involved in the arms race,
- 668
- 00:50:35,431 --> 00:50:38,966
- The space race and the peace race.
- 669
- 00:50:39,034 --> 00:50:44,305
- At the same time our people grumbled
- for more nylons and washing machines.
- 670
- 00:50:44,373 --> 00:50:46,974
- Our doomsday scheme cost
- us just a small fraction...
- 671
- 00:50:47,042 --> 00:50:50,345
- Of what we have been spending
- on defense in a single year.
- 672
- 00:50:50,412 --> 00:50:54,782
- But the deciding factor was when we learned
- your country was working along similar lines.
- 673
- 00:50:54,850 --> 00:50:57,885
- We were afraid of a doomsday
- gap! This is preposterous!
- 674
- 00:50:57,953 --> 00:51:00,254
- I've never approved
- of anything like that.
- 675
- 00:51:00,322 --> 00:51:03,057
- <i>Our source was the new york times.</i>
- 676
- 00:51:03,124 --> 00:51:07,027
- Dr. Strangelove, do we have
- anything like that in the works?
- 677
- 00:51:07,095 --> 00:51:12,233
- A moment, please, Mr. President.
- 678
- 00:51:12,300 --> 00:51:15,737
- Under the authority granted me...
- 679
- 00:51:15,804 --> 00:51:20,007
- As director of weapons
- research and development,
- 680
- 00:51:20,075 --> 00:51:24,245
- I commissioned last year
- a study of this project...
- 681
- 00:51:24,312 --> 00:51:26,647
- By the bland corporation.
- 682
- 00:51:26,715 --> 00:51:32,219
- Based on the findings of the
- report, my conclusion was that...
- 683
- 00:51:32,287 --> 00:51:35,289
- This idea was not a
- practical deterrent...
- 684
- 00:51:35,357 --> 00:51:39,260
- For reasons which at this
- moment must be all too obvious.
- 685
- 00:51:39,327 --> 00:51:42,764
- Then you mean it is possible for
- them to have built such a thing?
- 686
- 00:51:46,234 --> 00:51:49,904
- Mr. President, the
- technology required...
- 687
- 00:51:49,971 --> 00:51:53,875
- Is easily within the means
- of even the smallest...
- 688
- 00:51:53,942 --> 00:51:56,310
- Nuclear power.
- 689
- 00:51:56,378 --> 00:52:01,181
- It requires only the will to do so.
- 690
- 00:52:01,249 --> 00:52:05,185
- But how is it possible for this
- thing to be triggered automatically...
- 691
- 00:52:05,253 --> 00:52:07,522
- And at the same time
- impossible to un-trigger?
- 692
- 00:52:07,589 --> 00:52:11,859
- Mr. President, it is not only possible,
- 693
- 00:52:11,927 --> 00:52:14,061
- It is essential.
- 694
- 00:52:14,129 --> 00:52:18,198
- That is the whole idea
- of this machine, you know.
- 695
- 00:52:18,266 --> 00:52:23,404
- Deterrence is the art of producing
- in the mind of the enemy...
- 696
- 00:52:23,472 --> 00:52:26,106
- <i>The fear to attack.</i>
- 697
- 00:52:26,174 --> 00:52:31,111
- <i>And so because of the automated and
- irrevocable decision-making process...</i>
- 698
- 00:52:31,179 --> 00:52:35,115
- <i>Which rules out human meddling,</i>
- 699
- 00:52:35,183 --> 00:52:39,219
- The doomsday machine is terrifying...
- 700
- 00:52:39,287 --> 00:52:41,288
- And simple to understand...
- 701
- 00:52:41,356 --> 00:52:44,959
- <i>And completely credible and convincing.</i>
- 702
- 00:52:45,026 --> 00:52:48,429
- Gee, I wish we had one
- of them doomsday machines.
- 703
- 00:52:48,497 --> 00:52:52,132
- But this is fantastic, Strangelove.
- How can it be triggered automatically?
- 704
- 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:56,003
- It's remarkably simple to do that.
- 705
- 00:52:56,071 --> 00:52:59,607
- When you merely wish to bury bombs,
- 706
- 00:52:59,675 --> 00:53:02,076
- There's no limit to the size.
- 707
- 00:53:02,143 --> 00:53:05,346
- After that, they are connected...
- 708
- 00:53:05,413 --> 00:53:08,415
- To a gigantic complex of computers.
- 709
- 00:53:08,484 --> 00:53:12,319
- Now, then, a specific
- and clearly defined...

- Set of circumstances...
- 711

- Under which the bombs
- are to be exploded...

- That ain't no kraut name, is it?

- He changed it when he became a citizen.

- ...Is that the whole point
- of the doomsday machine...
- 719
- 00:53:45,387 --> 00:53:49,123
- Is lost, if you keep it a secret!

- 00:58:12,353 --> 00:58:16,657
- Those boys were like
- my children, Mandrake.
- 767
- 00:58:16,725 --> 00:58:20,193
- - Now they let me down.
- - No, no, jack! Not a bit of it.
- 768
- 00:58:20,261 --> 00:58:23,531
- I'm sure they all gave
- it their very best.
- 769
- 00:58:23,598 --> 00:58:26,066
- I'm equally sure they
- all died thinking of you,
- 770
- 00:58:26,134 --> 00:58:28,769
- Every man jack of them, jack.
- 771
- 00:58:28,837 --> 00:58:30,838
- <i>Supposing a bit of
- water has gone off, eh?</i>
- 772
- 00:58:30,906 --> 00:58:33,641
- <i>Certainly one can never be
- too sure about those things.</i>
- 773
- 00:58:33,708 --> 00:58:36,844
- <i>But look at me now. Do I
- look all rancid and clotted?</i>
- 774
- 00:58:36,912 --> 00:58:39,947
- <i>Look at me, jack. Look. Huh? Huh?</i>
- 775
- 00:58:40,014 --> 00:58:44,051
- <i>And I drink a lot of water. I'm
- what you might call a water man.</i>
- 776
- 00:58:44,118 --> 00:58:47,421
- <i>And I can swear to you,
- my boy-- swear to you,</i>
- 777
- 00:58:47,489 --> 00:58:49,990
- That there's nothing wrong
- with my bodily fluids.
- 778
- 00:58:50,058 --> 00:58:52,125
- Not a thing, jackie.
- 779
- 00:58:52,193 --> 00:58:54,628
- Mandrake, were you
- ever a prisoner of war?
- 780
- 00:58:54,696 --> 00:58:58,432
- Well, jack, the
- time's running very--
- 781
- 00:58:58,500 --> 00:59:01,602
- What? Were you ever a prisoner of war?
- 782
- 00:59:01,670 --> 00:59:03,871
- Yes, I was, as a matter of fact.
- 783
- 00:59:03,939 --> 00:59:07,541
- Did they torture you
- ? Uh, yes, they did.
- 784
- 00:59:07,609 --> 00:59:10,210
- I was tortured by the japanese,
- jack, if you must know.
- 785
- 00:59:10,278 --> 00:59:12,980
- Not a pretty story.
- Well, what happened?
- 786
- 00:59:13,047 --> 00:59:15,148
- Oh, well, I don't know, jack.
- 787
- 00:59:15,216 --> 00:59:17,785
- It's difficult to think of
- under these conditions, but,
- 788
- 00:59:17,853 --> 00:59:20,087
- Well, what happened was,
- 789
- 00:59:20,154 --> 00:59:23,390
- They got me on the old, uh,
- rangoon-inchinawa railway.
- 790
- 00:59:23,458 --> 00:59:27,928
- I was laying train lines for
- the bloody japanese puff-puffs.
- 791
- 00:59:27,996 --> 00:59:31,264
- No, I mean, when they
- tortured you, did you talk?
- 792
- 00:59:31,332 --> 00:59:33,968
- Ah, oh,
- no, I--
- 793
- 00:59:34,035 --> 00:59:36,971
- Well, I don't think they
- wanted me to talk, really.
- 794
- 00:59:37,038 --> 00:59:39,507
- I don't think they
- wanted me to say anything.
- 795
- 00:59:39,574 --> 00:59:42,510
- It was just their way of
- having a bit of fun, the swines.
- 796
- 00:59:42,577 --> 00:59:45,946
- The strange thing is, they
- make such bloody good cameras.
- 797
- 00:59:46,014 --> 00:59:49,950
- You know, those clowns
- outside are going to give me...
- 798
- 00:59:50,018 --> 00:59:53,320
- A pretty good going-over in
- a few minutes, for the code.
- 799
- 00:59:53,388 --> 00:59:56,023
- Yes--
- 800
- 00:59:56,091 --> 00:59:59,693
- Yes, well, you may have a-- you
- may have quite a point there, jack.
- 801
- 00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:03,763
- I don't know how well I
- could stand up under torture.
- 802
- 01:00:03,831 --> 01:00:07,034
- <i>Well, of course, the answer to
- that is, boy, no one ever does.</i>
- 803
- 01:00:07,102 --> 01:00:11,305
- <i>And my advice to you, jack,
- is to give me the code now.</i>
- 804
- 01:00:11,373 --> 01:00:14,274
- <i>And if those devils come
- back and try any rough stuff,</i>
- 805
- 01:00:14,342 --> 01:00:17,644
- <i>We'll fight 'em together like we
- did just now on the floor, eh?</i>
- 806
- 01:00:17,712 --> 01:00:20,914
- You with your gun and me with
- a belt of ammo, feeding you.
- 807
- 01:00:20,982 --> 01:00:24,118
- "feed me," you said, and
- I was feeding you, jack.
- 808
- 01:00:24,185 --> 01:00:26,820
- You know, Mandrake,
- 809
- 01:00:26,888 --> 01:00:30,190
- I happen to believe in
- a life after this one...
- 810
- 01:00:31,659 --> 01:00:35,129
- And I know I'll have to
- answer for what I've done.
- 811
- 01:00:36,431 --> 01:00:38,399
- And I think I can.
- 812
- 01:00:38,466 --> 01:00:41,701
- <i>Yes, of course you can.
- Of course you can. You can.</i>
- 813
- 01:00:41,769 --> 01:00:44,204
- I'm a religious man myself, you know.
- 814
- 01:00:44,272 --> 01:00:48,142
- I believe in all that sort of thing
- and, uh, I'm hoping, you know, jack--
- 815
- 01:00:48,209 --> 01:00:50,544
- [clanking] you've
- dropped your gun, jack.
- 816
- 01:00:50,611 --> 01:00:54,114
- You know what I-- no, jack,
- let me take that for you.
- 817
- 01:00:54,182 --> 01:00:56,183
- And you know what I'm hoping, jack?
- 818
- 01:00:56,251 --> 01:00:58,952
- I'm hoping you're going
- to give me the code, boy.
- 819
- 01:00:59,020 --> 01:01:02,722
- Oh, you're going to have a little
- wash and brush up? What a good idea.
- 820
- 01:01:02,790 --> 01:01:05,392
- Always did wonders for a man
- that, a wash and brush up.
- 821
- 01:01:05,460 --> 01:01:08,195
- Water on the back of the
- neck makes you feel marvelous.
- 822
- 01:01:08,263 --> 01:01:11,031
- That's what we need: Water on
- the back of the neck and the code.
- 823
- 01:01:11,099 --> 01:01:14,734
- Supposing I play a little
- guessing game with you, jack boy?
- 824
- 01:01:14,802 --> 01:01:17,771
- <i>I'll try and guess what
- the code is-- [gunshot]</i>

- <i>[thudding]</i>

- Copilot to navigator. I'm
- ready with the fuel figures now.
- 827
- 01:01:38,826 --> 01:01:41,795
- We have 109,000 total,
- 828
- 01:01:41,862 --> 01:01:44,731
- 79,000 in the mains...
- 829
- 01:01:44,799 --> 01:01:47,601
- And 30,000 in the auxiliaries.
- 830
- 01:01:47,668 --> 01:01:49,603
- And that works out to roughly...
- 831
- 01:01:49,670 --> 01:01:53,107
- Seven hours, 15 minutes
- endurance from this time.
- 832

- But I've got a very good
- idea what the recall code is,
- 895
- 01:06:37,458 --> 01:06:40,393
- And I have to get in touch with
- sac headquarters immediately!

- your head and keep 'em there!

- May I tell you that I have
- a very, very good idea--
- 902
- 01:06:59,814 --> 01:07:04,117
- I think, I hope, I pray-- what the recall
- code is, some theme he kept repeating.
- 903
- 01:07:04,184 --> 01:07:07,120
- It's a variation on "peace on
- earth" or "purity of essence"!

- E.O.P., o.P.E., it's one of those!

- I think the auto-destruct mechanism
- got hit and blew itself up.
- 920
- 01:08:21,361 --> 01:08:24,598
- The fire is out. The
- emergency power is on.
- 921
- 01:08:24,665 --> 01:08:28,167
- Everything seems to check
- out all right. Will advise.
- 922
- 01:08:28,235 --> 01:08:29,970
- Roger. Navigator?
- 923
- 01:08:30,037 --> 01:08:34,173
- I've worked out our rate of fuel loss
- at approximately 1-6-2 per minute.
- 924
- 01:08:34,241 --> 01:08:37,043
- This gives us a radius of action...
- 925
- 01:08:37,111 --> 01:08:41,815
- Sufficient to take out primary and
- secondary targets, but we will not--
- 926
- 01:08:41,882 --> 01:08:46,052
- Repeat, not be able to make it
- back to any base or neutral country.
- 927
- 01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:49,555
- However, we would have
- enough fuel to ditch...
- 928
- 01:08:49,624 --> 01:08:52,325
- At weather ship tango delta,
- 929
- 01:08:52,392 --> 01:08:55,729
- Grid coordinates
- 0-0-3-6-9-1.
- 930
- 01:09:00,467 --> 01:09:02,902
- Well, boys, we got three
- engines out.
- 931
- 01:09:02,970 --> 01:09:06,372
- We got more holes in us
- than a horse trader's mule.
- 932
- 01:09:06,440 --> 01:09:08,875
- The radio is gone,
- and we're leakin' fuel.
- 933
- 01:09:08,943 --> 01:09:12,378
- And if we was flyin' any lower, why,
- we'd need sleigh bells on this thing.
- 934
- 01:09:12,446 --> 01:09:15,414
- But we got one little
- budge on them ruskies.
- 935
- 01:09:15,482 --> 01:09:17,450
- At this height they
- might harpoon us,
- 936
- 01:09:17,518 --> 01:09:20,654
- But they dang sure ain't gonna
- spot us on no radar screen!
- 937
- 01:09:31,799 --> 01:09:34,701
- The other way.
- Where are you taking me?
- 938
- 01:09:34,769 --> 01:09:38,204
- To the main gate. Colonel!
- 939
- 01:09:38,272 --> 01:09:41,708
- Colonel, I must know what you
- think has been going on here.
- 940
- 01:09:41,776 --> 01:09:43,977
- You wanna know what I think? Yes.
- 941
- 01:09:44,045 --> 01:09:46,512
- I think you're some kind
- of deviated "prevert."
- 942
- 01:09:46,580 --> 01:09:49,315
- I think general Ripper found
- out about your preversion...
- 943
- 01:09:49,383 --> 01:09:52,052
- And that you were organizing
- some kind of mutiny of preverts.
- 944
- 01:09:52,119 --> 01:09:54,253
- Now, move! [jet engines roaring]
- 945
- 01:09:54,321 --> 01:09:57,557
- On top of that, I don't know anything
- about any planes attacking russia.
- 946
- 01:09:57,624 --> 01:10:01,394
- All I was told to do was get Ripper on the
- phone with the president of the United States.
- 947
- 01:10:01,461 --> 01:10:06,265
- Now just one second. You
- just said, "the president."
- 948
- 01:10:06,333 --> 01:10:08,534
- What about the president?
- 949
- 01:10:08,602 --> 01:10:11,805
- The president wants to speak
- to general Ripper, doesn't he?
- 950
- 01:10:11,872 --> 01:10:14,440
- Now, general Ripper is dead, is he not?
- 951
- 01:10:14,508 --> 01:10:16,776
- I am general Ripper's executive officer,
- 952
- 01:10:16,844 --> 01:10:19,813
- So the president will bloody well
- want to speak to me, won't he?
- 953
- 01:10:19,880 --> 01:10:23,583
- There's a telephone box over
- there and the line may be open.
- 954
- 01:10:23,650 --> 01:10:26,519
- You wanna talk to the
- president of the United States?
- 955
- 01:10:26,587 --> 01:10:29,422
- <i>I don't want to talk to him,
- colonel, I've got to talk to him.</i>
- 956
- 01:10:29,489 --> 01:10:33,126
- And I can assure you, if you don't put
- that gun away and stop this stupid nonsense,
- 957
- 01:10:33,194 --> 01:10:37,230
- The court of inquiry on this
- will give you such a pranging,
- 958
- 01:10:37,297 --> 01:10:41,434
- You'll be lucky if you end up wearing
- the uniform of a bloody toilet attendant!
- 959
- 01:10:41,501 --> 01:10:44,170
- [jet engines roaring]
- 960
- 01:10:44,238 --> 01:10:46,172
- Okay.
- 961
- 01:10:46,240 --> 01:10:49,909
- Go ahead, try and get the president
- of the United States on the phone.
- 962
- 01:10:51,645 --> 01:10:54,614
- If you try any preversions in
- there, I'll blow your head off.
- 963
- 01:11:09,230 --> 01:11:12,065
- Operator? This is group
- captain lionel Mandrake.
- 964
- 01:11:12,133 --> 01:11:14,167
- I'm speaking from
- burpelson air force base.
- 965
- 01:11:14,235 --> 01:11:18,171
- Something urgent has come up and I want you
- to place an emergency person-to-person call...
- 966
- 01:11:18,239 --> 01:11:21,374
- With president Merkin Muffley
- in the pentagon, washington, d.C.
- 967
- 01:11:22,709 --> 01:11:25,945
- <i>Uh, burpelson
- 3-9-1-8-0.</i>
- 968
- 01:11:27,114 --> 01:11:29,749
- No, I'm perfectly serious.
- The president, yes.
- 969
- 01:11:29,817 --> 01:11:32,152
- The president of the United States.
- 970
- 01:11:32,219 --> 01:11:35,155
- Oh, I'm sorry, I haven't
- got enough change.
- 971
- 01:11:35,222 --> 01:11:38,658
- Could you, uh-- could you make
- this a collect call, operator?
- 972
- 01:11:43,497 --> 01:11:47,233
- [jet engines roaring]
- 973
- 01:11:50,604 --> 01:11:54,207
- Just one second, operator.
- They won't accept the call.
- 974
- 01:11:54,275 --> 01:11:56,209
- <i>Have you got 55 cents?</i>
- 975
- 01:11:56,277 --> 01:11:59,312
- You don't think I'd go into combat
- with loose change in my pocket, do you?
- 976
- 01:12:01,682 --> 01:12:03,649
- Operator, look.
- 977
- 01:12:03,717 --> 01:12:08,154
- Is it possible to make this an
- ordinary-- ordinary trunk call?
- 978
- 01:12:08,222 --> 01:12:10,990
- Well, what do you call
- it? You know, um--
- 979
- 01:12:11,058 --> 01:12:14,093
- Oh, uh,
- station-to-station.
- 980
- 01:12:18,165 --> 01:12:21,701
- Oh, blast! I'm still 20 cents short.
- 981
- 01:12:23,537 --> 01:12:26,973
- Operator, hold on. I
- shan't keep you a second.
- 982
- 01:12:27,041 --> 01:12:31,211
- Colonel, that Coca-Cola machine. I
- want you to shoot the lock off it.
- 983
- 01:12:31,278 --> 01:12:33,379
- <i>There may be some change in there.</i>
- 984
- 01:12:36,217 --> 01:12:38,384
- That's private property.
- 985
- 01:12:38,452 --> 01:12:41,354
- Colonel, can you possibly imagine
- what is going to happen to you,
- 986
- 01:12:41,421 --> 01:12:44,123
- Your frame outlook, way
- of life and everything,
- 987
- 01:12:44,191 --> 01:12:48,728
- When they learn that you have obstructed a phone
- call to the president of the United States?
- 988
- 01:12:48,795 --> 01:12:52,798
- <i>Can you imagine? Shoot it off!</i>
- 989
- 01:12:52,867 --> 01:12:56,502
- Shoot with the gun! That's what
- the bullets are for, you twit!
- 990
- 01:12:56,570 --> 01:12:59,438
- Okay, I'm gonna get your money for you.
- 991
- 01:12:59,506 --> 01:13:02,775
- But if you don't get the president on
- that phone, you know what's gonna happen?
- 992
- 01:13:02,843 --> 01:13:04,244
- What?
- 993
- 01:13:04,311 --> 01:13:07,947
- You're gonna have to answer
- to the Coca-Cola company.
- 994
- 01:13:09,683 --> 01:13:12,418
- [gunshots]
- 995
- 01:13:17,024 --> 01:13:20,159
- [from P.A. System] this is
- sac communications control.
- 996
- 01:13:20,227 --> 01:13:23,629
- The recall code o.P.E....
- 997
- 01:13:23,697 --> 01:13:25,932
- Is being acknowledged "roger"...
- 998
- 01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:30,569
- By elements of the
- 8-4-3 bomb wing.
- 999
- 01:13:30,637 --> 01:13:32,671
- These are the details.
- 1000
- 01:13:32,739 --> 01:13:37,277
- Missions 12, 22, 30 and 38...
- 1001
- 01:13:37,344 --> 01:13:40,947
- Are reported destroyed by enemy action.
- 1002
- 01:13:41,015 --> 01:13:44,517
- All other missions have
- acknowledged recall code.
- 1003
- 01:13:44,584 --> 01:13:47,620
- This is sac communications
- control. Over and out.
- 1004
- 01:13:47,687 --> 01:13:51,190
- [whistling] gentlemen, gentlemen!
- 1005
- 01:13:51,258 --> 01:13:53,759
- Ah, gentlemen,
- 1006
- 01:13:53,827 --> 01:13:55,795
- Mr. President,
- 1007
- 01:13:55,862 --> 01:13:58,431
- I'm not a sentimentalist
- at all by nature,
- 1008
- 01:13:58,498 --> 01:14:01,367
- But I think I know what's
- in every heart in this room.
- 1009
- 01:14:01,435 --> 01:14:04,637
- I think we ought to all
- just bow our heads...
- 1010
- 01:14:04,704 --> 01:14:07,307
- And give a short prayer of
- thanks for our deliverance.
- 1011
- 01:14:07,374 --> 01:14:10,009
- Lord,
- 1012
- 01:14:10,077 --> 01:14:14,613
- Uh, we have heard the wings
- of the angel of death...
- 1013
- 01:14:14,681 --> 01:14:17,483
- Fluttering over our heads
- from the valley of fear.
- 1014
- 01:14:17,551 --> 01:14:20,353
- You have seen fit to deliver
- us from the forces of evil--
- 1015
- 01:14:20,421 --> 01:14:22,355
- Excuse me, sir.
- 1016
- 01:14:22,423 --> 01:14:25,258
- Premier kissoff's calling
- again and he's hopping mad.
- 1017
- 01:14:31,966 --> 01:14:35,901
- Fuel flow on active engines
- and leakage has increased.
- 1018
- 01:14:35,970 --> 01:14:40,039
- Now works
- out at 2-0-5.
- 1019
- 01:14:41,075 --> 01:14:43,076
- Estimate remaining fuel...
- 1020
- 01:14:43,143 --> 01:14:47,080
- At
- 8-7-9-0.
- 1021
- 01:14:50,384 --> 01:14:54,220
- Uh, roger. Confirm
- 2-0-5 per minute...
- 1022
- 01:14:54,288 --> 01:14:58,424
- And remaining
- fuel 8-7-9-0.
- 1023
- 01:15:04,898 --> 01:15:08,968
- No, no, Dimitri, there
- must be some mistake.
- 1024
- 01:15:09,036 --> 01:15:11,137
- No, I'm certain of that.
- 1025
- 01:15:11,205 --> 01:15:15,408
- I'm perfectly certain of that, Dimitri.
- 1026
- 01:15:15,476 --> 01:15:18,378
- Just a second. You know what he says?
- 1027
- 01:15:18,445 --> 01:15:20,679
- He says that one of the
- planes hasn't turned back.
- 1028
- 01:15:20,747 --> 01:15:23,383
- He says according to information
- forwarded by our air staffs,
- 1029
- 01:15:23,450 --> 01:15:26,352
- It's headed for the
- missile complex at laputa.
- 1030
- 01:15:26,420 --> 01:15:29,288
- [mumbling]
- 1031
- 01:15:29,356 --> 01:15:32,325
- [laughing] that's
- impossible, Mr. President.
- 1032
- 01:15:32,393 --> 01:15:34,460
- I mean, look at the big board.
- 1033
- 01:15:34,528 --> 01:15:37,663
- Thirty-four planes, 30 recalls
- acknowledged and four splashes,
- 1034
- 01:15:37,731 --> 01:15:40,633
- And one of them was targeted for laputa.
- 1035
- 01:15:43,537 --> 01:15:46,739
- Dimitri, look, we've got an
- acknowledgement from every plane...
- 1036
- 01:15:46,806 --> 01:15:50,043
- Except the four you've shot down.
- 1037
- 01:15:50,110 --> 01:15:53,179
- Oh. Oh.
- 1038
- 01:15:54,915 --> 01:15:57,350
- [clears
- throat] he's--
- 1039
- 01:15:57,418 --> 01:15:59,752
- Hang on a second, Dimitri.
- 1040
- 01:15:59,819 --> 01:16:03,189
- He says their air defense now only
- claims three aircraft confirmed.
- 1041
- 01:16:03,257 --> 01:16:05,791
- The fourth may only be damaged.
- 1042
- 01:16:07,894 --> 01:16:09,828
- Mr. President,
- 1043
- 01:16:09,896 --> 01:16:12,265
- I'm beginnin' to smell
- a big, fat commie rat.
- 1044
- 01:16:12,332 --> 01:16:15,968
- I mean, supposin' kissoff is
- lyin' about that fourth plane,
- 1045
- 01:16:16,036 --> 01:16:18,438
- Just lookin' for an
- excuse to clobber us?
- 1046
- 01:16:18,505 --> 01:16:21,006
- If the spaghetti hits the fan,
- now we're really in trouble.
- 1047
- 01:16:25,079 --> 01:16:27,513
- Dimitri, look, if this report is true...
- 1048
- 01:16:27,581 --> 01:16:31,384
- And the plane manages
- to bomb the target,
- 1049
- 01:16:31,452 --> 01:16:35,721
- Is this-- is this gonna-- is this
- gonna set off the doomsday machine?
- 1050
- 01:16:38,892 --> 01:16:42,027
- Are you sure?
- 1051
- 01:16:42,096 --> 01:16:46,632
- Well, I-- I guess you're just gonna
- have to get that plane, Dimitri.
- 1052
- 01:16:46,700 --> 01:16:49,802
- Dimitri, I'm sorry they're jamming
- your radar and flying so low,
- 1053
- 01:16:49,869 --> 01:16:52,271
- But they're trained to do it, you know?
- 1054
- 01:16:52,339 --> 01:16:55,441
- It's initiative.
- 1055
- 01:16:55,509 --> 01:16:58,377
- Look, Dimitri, you know
- exactly where they're going,
- 1056
- 01:16:58,445 --> 01:17:01,614
- And I'm sure your entire air
- defense can stop a single plane.
- 1057
- 01:17:04,784 --> 01:17:08,187
- It's not gonna help either one of
- us if the doomsday machine goes off,
- 1058
- 01:17:08,255 --> 01:17:10,889
- Now, is it?
- 1059
- 01:17:10,957 --> 01:17:16,162
- Dimitri, there's no point in you getting
- hysterical at a moment like this!
- 1060
- 01:17:16,230 --> 01:17:20,500
- Dimitri, keep your feet on the
- ground when you're talking to me.
- 1061
- 01:17:20,567 --> 01:17:22,835
- I am not-- I
- am not getting--
- 1062
- 01:17:22,902 --> 01:17:25,338
- No, Dimitri, I'm just worried.
- 1063
- 01:17:25,405 --> 01:17:27,340
- That's all.
- 1064
- 01:17:27,407 --> 01:17:30,443
- Now look, if our air staffs say
- its primary target is laputa...
- 1065
- 01:17:30,511 --> 01:17:32,512
- And its secondary target is borchov,
- 1066
- 01:17:32,579 --> 01:17:35,981
- I mean, it's true, Dimitri,
- you gotta believe it!
- 1067
- 01:17:36,049 --> 01:17:39,785
- Look, can I give-- Dimitri,
- can I give you just one word--
- 1068
- 01:17:39,853 --> 01:17:43,156
- Can I give you just one
- word of advice, Dimitri?
- 1069
- 01:17:43,223 --> 01:17:45,191
- Listen, Dimitri.
- 1070
- 01:17:45,259 --> 01:17:48,594
- Put everything you've got into those
- two sectors, and you can't miss!
- 1071
- 01:17:54,918 --> 01:17:58,621
- Sir, if we continue to lose
- fuel at the present rate,
- 1072
- 01:17:58,688 --> 01:18:02,825
- I estimate we only have,
- uh, 38 minutes flying time,
- 1073
- 01:18:02,893 --> 01:18:05,361
- Which will not even take
- us as far as the primary.
- 1074
- 01:18:05,428 --> 01:18:09,365
- Doggone it, sweets, you told me that
- you could get me to the primary!
- 1075
- 01:18:09,432 --> 01:18:11,868
- I'm sorry, sir, that
- estimate was based on...
- 1076
- 01:18:11,935 --> 01:18:15,138
- The original loss rate
- factor, not at 2-0-5.
- 1077
- 01:18:15,205 --> 01:18:17,473
- I don't give a hoot
- in hell how you do it,
- 1078
- 01:18:17,540 --> 01:18:19,708
- You just get me to
- the primary, you hear?
- 1079
- 01:18:19,777 --> 01:18:23,212
- I'm sorry, sir, but
- those are the figures.
- 1080
- 01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:26,548
- We'll be lucky to reach
- weather ship at tango delta.
- 1081
- 01:18:26,616 --> 01:18:28,818
- Well, shoot!
- 1082
- 01:18:28,886 --> 01:18:32,688
- We ain't come this far just to
- dump this thing in the drink.
- 1083
- 01:18:32,756 --> 01:18:35,324
- What's the nearest
- target of opportunity?
- 1084
- 01:18:44,034 --> 01:18:46,803
- Sir, if the rate of
- loss does not increase,
- 1085
- 01:18:46,870 --> 01:18:50,639
- We have a chance to
- reach target 3-8-4,
- 1086
- 01:18:50,707 --> 01:18:55,544
- Grid coordinate
- 0-0-3-6-9-1...
- 1087
- 01:18:55,612 --> 01:18:59,481
- And possibly make it from there
- to the tango delta weather ship.
- 1088
- 01:18:59,549 --> 01:19:01,684
- What kind of a target is that, anyhow?
- 1089
- 01:19:01,751 --> 01:19:05,688
- Sir, that's the I.C.B.M.
- Complex at kotloss.
- 1090
- 01:19:05,755 --> 01:19:09,458
- All right, designating new target:
- 1091
- 01:19:09,526 --> 01:19:11,493
- 3-8-4.
- 1092
- 01:19:11,561 --> 01:19:14,596
- Give me a rough headin' on that just
- as soon as you can get it worked out.
- 1093
- 01:19:26,126 --> 01:19:30,046
- We'll keep our fingers crossed, Dimitri,
- and remember, there's just one thing:
- 1094
- 01:19:30,113 --> 01:19:33,049
- We are all in this together.
- We're right behind you, Dimitri.
- 1095
- 01:19:33,116 --> 01:19:35,484
- We're with you all the way.
- 1096
- 01:19:35,552 --> 01:19:39,255
- Yes, well, we'll keep the line open.
- 1097
- 01:19:39,323 --> 01:19:41,657
- All right, Dimitri.
- 1098
- 01:19:42,659 --> 01:19:44,626
- General Turgidson,
- 1099
- 01:19:44,694 --> 01:19:47,964
- Is there really a chance for
- that plane to get through?
- 1100
- 01:19:49,599 --> 01:19:52,068
- Mr. President, if I may speak freely,
- 1101
- 01:19:52,135 --> 01:19:55,071
- The ruskie talks big, but frankly
- we think he's short of know-how.
- 1102
- 01:19:55,138 --> 01:19:57,840
- I mean, you just can't expect
- a bunch of ignorant peons...
- 1103
- 01:19:57,908 --> 01:20:00,343
- To understand a machine
- like some of our boys.
- 1104
- 01:20:00,410 --> 01:20:02,879
- And that's not meant as
- an insult, Mr. Ambassador.
- 1105
- 01:20:02,946 --> 01:20:05,447
- You take your average ruskie, we
- all know how much guts he's got.
- 1106
- 01:20:05,515 --> 01:20:08,717
- Hell, look at all of 'em them nazis
- killed off, and they still wouldn't quit!
- 1107
- 01:20:08,785 --> 01:20:10,652
- Can't you stick to the point, general?
- 1108
- 01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:14,490
- Well, uh, sir, uh, if
- the pilot's good, see--
- 1109
- 01:20:14,557 --> 01:20:18,194
- I mean, if he's really sharp, he
- can barrel that baby in so low.
- 1110
- 01:20:18,262 --> 01:20:20,696
- You oughta see it
- sometime! It's a sight!
- 1111
- 01:20:20,764 --> 01:20:23,266
- A big plane, like a 52, vroom!
- 1112
- 01:20:23,333 --> 01:20:26,402
- Its jet exhaust fryin'
- chickens in the barnyard!
- 1113
- 01:20:26,469 --> 01:20:29,638
- -Yeah, but has he got a chance?
- -Has he got a chance?
- 1114
- 01:20:29,706 --> 01:20:32,808
- Hell, yeah--
- ye-- ye--
- 1115

- Whoo-hoo!
- 1191
- 01:27:39,319 --> 01:27:43,054
- Mr. President, I would
- not rule out the chance...
- 1192
- 01:27:43,122 --> 01:27:46,191
- To preserve a nucleus
- of human specimens.
- 1193
- 01:27:46,258 --> 01:27:49,127
- <i>It would be quite easy.</i>
- 1194
- 01:27:49,195 --> 01:27:51,496
- [laughing]
- 1195
- 01:27:51,564 --> 01:27:53,765
- At the bottom of, uh,
- 1196
- 01:27:53,833 --> 01:27:56,668
- Some of our deeper mine shafts.
- 1197
- 01:27:56,736 --> 01:28:01,573
- The radioactivity would never penetrate
- a mine some thousands of feet deep.
- 1198
- 01:28:01,641 --> 01:28:05,877
- And in a matter of weeks, sufficient
- improvements in dwelling space...
- 1199
- 01:28:05,945 --> 01:28:07,912
- <i>Could easily be provided.</i>
- 1200
- 01:28:07,980 --> 01:28:10,716
- How long would you have
- to stay down there?
- 1201
- 01:28:10,783 --> 01:28:14,686
- Well, that's, you
- know, uh-- [inhaling]
- 1202
- 01:28:14,754 --> 01:28:17,389
- Cobalt thorium g.
- 1203
- 01:28:17,457 --> 01:28:19,458
- Uh--
- 1204
- 01:28:23,863 --> 01:28:25,864
- Uh--
- 1205
- 01:28:27,667 --> 01:28:31,470
- Radioactive
- half-life of, uh--
- 1206
- 01:28:31,537 --> 01:28:33,505
- Hmm.
- 1207
- 01:28:33,573 --> 01:28:37,041
- I would think that, uh, possibly, uh,
- 1208
- 01:28:37,109 --> 01:28:39,544
- One hundred years.
- 1209
- 01:28:39,612 --> 01:28:41,546
- You mean,
- 1210
- 01:28:41,614 --> 01:28:44,616
- People could actually stay
- down there for 100 years?
- 1211
- 01:28:44,684 --> 01:28:46,918
- <i>It would not be difficult, mein fuhrer.</i>
- 1212
- 01:28:46,986 --> 01:28:49,254
- Nuclear reactors
- could-- [laughing]
- 1213
- 01:28:49,321 --> 01:28:51,656
- <i>I'm sorry, Mr. President.</i>
- 1214
- 01:28:51,724 --> 01:28:55,560
- Nuclear reactors could provide
- power almost indefinitely.
- 1215
- 01:28:55,628 --> 01:28:58,463
- Greenhouses could maintain plant life.
- 1216
- 01:28:58,531 --> 01:29:02,100
- Animals could be bred and slaughtered.
- 1217
- 01:29:02,167 --> 01:29:04,102
- A quick survey would have to be made...
- 1218
- 01:29:04,169 --> 01:29:06,638
- Of all the available
- mine sites in the country.
- 1219
- 01:29:06,706 --> 01:29:10,509
- But I would guess that
- a dwelling space...
- 1220
- 01:29:10,576 --> 01:29:14,212
- For several hundred thousand of
- our people could easily be provided.
- 1221
- 01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:17,416
- Well, I-- I would hate
- to have to decide...
- 1222
- 01:29:17,483 --> 01:29:20,419
- Who stays up and who goes down.
- 1223
- 01:29:20,486 --> 01:29:24,389
- Well, that would not be
- necessary, Mr. President.
- 1224
- 01:29:24,457 --> 01:29:27,292
- It could easily be
- accomplished with a computer.
- 1225
- 01:29:27,359 --> 01:29:29,694
- And the computer could
- be set and programmed...
- 1226
- 01:29:29,762 --> 01:29:32,831
- To accept factors from youth, health,
- 1227
- 01:29:32,899 --> 01:29:36,067
- Sexual fertility, intelligence...
- 1228
- 01:29:36,135 --> 01:29:38,637
- And a cross-section
- of necessary skills.
- 1229
- 01:29:38,704 --> 01:29:40,972
- Of course, it would
- be absolutely vital...
- 1230
- 01:29:41,040 --> 01:29:44,976
- That our top government and
- military men be included,
- 1231
- 01:29:45,044 --> 01:29:47,579
- <i>To foster and impart the
- required principles...</i>
- 1232
- 01:29:47,647 --> 01:29:49,881
- Of leadership and tradition.
- 1233
- 01:29:49,949 --> 01:29:51,950
- Aaah!
- 1234
- 01:29:55,955 --> 01:29:58,890
- Naturally, they would
- breed prodigiously, eh?
- 1235
- 01:29:58,958 --> 01:30:01,726
- There would be much
- time and little to do.
- 1236
- 01:30:01,794 --> 01:30:03,762
- <i>[giggling]</i>
- 1237
- 01:30:03,830 --> 01:30:08,299
- <i>But with the proper breeding
- techniques and a ratio of, say,</i>
- 1238
- 01:30:08,367 --> 01:30:11,135
- <i>Ten females to each male,</i>
- 1239
- 01:30:11,203 --> 01:30:13,605
- <i>I would guess that they could
- then work their way back...</i>
- 1240
- 01:30:13,673 --> 01:30:17,676
- <i>To the present gross national
- product within, say, 20 years.</i>
- 1241
- 01:30:17,743 --> 01:30:19,678
- But look here, doctor.
- 1242
- 01:30:19,745 --> 01:30:23,482
- Wouldn't this nucleus
- of survivors be so...
- 1243
- 01:30:23,549 --> 01:30:26,785
- Grief-stricken and
- anguished that they--
- 1244
- 01:30:26,853 --> 01:30:30,321
- Well, envy the dead and
- not want to go on living?
- 1245
- 01:30:30,389 --> 01:30:33,291
- No, sir. Excuse me.
- 1246
- 01:30:42,568 --> 01:30:46,471
- When they go down into the mine,
- everyone would still be alive.
- 1247
- 01:30:46,539 --> 01:30:48,607
- There would be no shocking memories...
- 1248
- 01:30:48,674 --> 01:30:53,378
- And the prevailing emotion will be
- one of nostalgia for those left behind,
- 1249
- 01:30:53,445 --> 01:30:56,314
- Combined with a spirt of...
- 1250
- 01:30:56,382 --> 01:30:58,783
- Bold curiosity for the adventure ahead!
- 1251
- 01:30:58,851 --> 01:31:00,852
- Aaah!
- 1252
- 01:31:06,859 --> 01:31:08,927
- Aaah!
- 1253
- 01:31:16,335 --> 01:31:18,302
- Doctor,
- 1254
- 01:31:20,472 --> 01:31:23,842
- You mentioned the, uh, ratio of, uh,
- 1255
- 01:31:23,910 --> 01:31:26,077
- Ten women to each man.
- 1256
- 01:31:26,145 --> 01:31:29,080
- Now, wouldn't that
- necessitate the abandonment...
- 1257
- 01:31:29,148 --> 01:31:32,817
- Of the so-called monogamous
- sexual relationship?
- 1258
- 01:31:32,885 --> 01:31:36,688
- I mean, as far as men were concerned?
- 1259
- 01:31:36,756 --> 01:31:38,690
- Regrettably, yes.
- 1260
- 01:31:38,758 --> 01:31:43,562
- But it is, you know, a sacrifice
- required for the future of the human race.
- 1261
- 01:31:43,629 --> 01:31:48,667
- I hasten to add that since each man
- will be required to do prodigious...
- 1262
- 01:31:50,369 --> 01:31:52,336
- Service along these lines,
- 1263
- 01:31:52,404 --> 01:31:56,174
- The women will have to be selected
- for their sexual characteristics,
- 1264
- 01:31:56,241 --> 01:32:00,045
- Which will have to be of a
- highly stimulating nature.
- 1265
- 01:32:00,112 --> 01:32:03,949
- I must confess, you have an
- astonishingly good idea there, doctor.
- 1266
- 01:32:04,016 --> 01:32:06,585
- Thank you, sir.
- 1267
- 01:32:06,652 --> 01:32:09,588
- I think we ought to look at this
- from the military point of view.
- 1268
- 01:32:09,655 --> 01:32:13,558
- I mean, uh, supposing the ruskies...
- 1269
- 01:32:13,626 --> 01:32:16,561
- Stashed away some big
- bombs, see, and we didn't?
- 1270
- 01:32:16,629 --> 01:32:19,564
- When they come out in 100
- years, they could take over!
- 1271
- 01:32:19,632 --> 01:32:21,633
- [faceman] I agree, Mr. President.
- 1272
- 01:32:21,701 --> 01:32:25,103
- They might even try an immediate sneak attack
- so they could take over our mine shaft space.
- 1273
- 01:32:25,170 --> 01:32:27,706
- [Turgidson] it'd be extremely
- naive of us, Mr. President,
- 1274
- 01:32:27,773 --> 01:32:29,774
- To imagine that these
- new developments...
- 1275
- 01:32:29,842 --> 01:32:32,744
- Are gonna cause any change in
- soviet expansionist policy!
- 1276
- 01:32:32,812 --> 01:32:35,680
- I mean, we must be
- increasingly on the alert...
- 1277
- 01:32:35,748 --> 01:32:38,249
- To prevent them from taking
- over other mine shaft space...
- 1278
- 01:32:38,317 --> 01:32:40,451
- In order to breed more
- prodigiously than we do,
- 1279
- 01:32:40,519 --> 01:32:43,488
- Thus knocking us out through
- superior numbers when we emerge!
- 1280
- 01:32:43,555 --> 01:32:47,659
- Mr. President, we must not
- allow a mine-shaft gap!
- 1281
- 01:32:47,727 --> 01:32:49,828
- Sir!
- 1282
- 01:32:49,895 --> 01:32:52,196
