:08:00
Bosun, pass the alert.
:08:03
Combat stations. Blaster men,
activate your scopes.
:08:06
Radio contact, sir.
There's a voice.
:08:08
- Human?
- It sounds like it.
:08:10
Boost it.
:08:14
Spaceship, identify yourself.
You're being tracked.
:08:17
Cut me in, Quinn.
:08:20
United Planets Cruiser C-57-D,
J.J. Adams commanding.
:08:25
- Who are you?
- Morbius of theBelerephon.
:08:29
- Who?
- Edward Morbius.
:08:33
Here it is. "Morbius, E. Ph.D., Lit.D.
Expedition philologist."
:08:38
- Philologist?
- What do you wish here, cruiser?
:08:42
You don't understand. We're your
relief. We're glad to find you alive.
:08:46
I, of course,
appreciate your concern...
:08:49
but absolutely no assistance
of any sort is required.
:08:53
The red carpet treatment, huh?
:08:56
Dr. Morbius, my orders are to
survey the situation on Altair-4.
:09:00
Let me repeat:
I'm in no sort of difficulty here.
:09:03
Your best procedure will be to
turn back at once without landing.
:09:08
Sorry, sir.
:09:09
If you set down on this planet,
I warn you...
:09:12
that I cannot be answerable for
the safety of your ship or your crew.
:09:17
If you'll just supply me
with landing coordinates.
:09:22
Dr. Morbius,
I require landing coordinates.
:09:25
Very well, but I wash my hands
of all responsibility.
:09:29
- You have standard charts?
- Yes, sir.
:09:33
You may come in at 83-17-4 north...
:09:39
148-21 west.
:09:43
Thank you.
:09:46
It's right back there
in the desert.
:09:48
Commander, I urge you to reconsider.
Please permit me to recommend...
:09:54
Something funny down there, Skipper.
