:14:01
Seriously, now.
:14:03
A verse? Quotes?
:14:05
Dedication?
:14:08
Truthfully...
:14:09
I'm concentrating pretty much
on the landing...

:14:13
but I do have faith
that if everything goes well...

:14:16
something appropriate will occur.
:14:20
- Why don't you surprise us?
- Okay.

:14:24
On to you, Buzz.
:14:26
Your official position on the crew
is listed as lunar module pilot...

:14:30
which is something of a misnomer...
:14:33
since you don't actually pilot the LEM
as much as safeguard it.

:14:36
- Is that fair to say?
- Yes.

:14:40
It'll be my job to see to it
that the LEM is a healthy machine...

:14:46
all systems are running smoothly,
feeding Neil the data he needs.

:14:51
If anything requires a special course
of action, I will take that action.

:14:59
There are a lot of things
we know about you.

:15:03
We know that you were
a combat pilot in the Korean War...

:15:07
that you earned a PhD at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology...

:15:11
in orbital mechanics.
:15:14
We know that
you're a spiritual man.

:15:16
Your wife is named Joan...
:15:18
and your life has been
chronicled and featured...

:15:21
and photographed...
:15:23
ever since the mission of Apollo 11
placed you in the world spotlight.

:15:28
You're also gonna be the second man
to walk on the face of the moon.

:15:34
But, shoot, Buzz, wouldn't you like
to be the guy that gets out first?

:15:40
Well, Emmett, the important thing
to remember here is that...

:15:45
Neil and I
will be landing on the moon...

:15:47
at the same time.
:15:50
Who gets out first
is relatively insignificant.

:15:57
We'll review all this
with Deke later.
