:49:04
Shall I alert Air-Sea Rescue, sir?
:49:10
No point. Bring up the fighters
on the board in tight scale.
:49:15
Yes, sir.
:49:25
Beautiful.
:49:33
Fighters on their way, sir.
:49:37
Thankyou.
:49:41
Buck, let's hope this all blows over
in the next few minutes.
:49:45
But ifit doesn't,
we'll get to know each otherverywell.
:49:49
Listen to every conversation I have,
try to get to know how I think.
:49:53
- It might come in handy.
- Yes, sir.
:49:59
- How did General Bogan sound toyou?
- Sir?
:50:03
Did he sound worried?
Confident? Scared?
:50:08
Not scared.
:50:10
A little worried, I guess.
:50:12
Bogan's an old-time flier...
:50:13
but he's not afraid
ofall this new equipment.
:50:15
Ifhe's worried, I'm worried.
:50:18
Doyou know Mr. Swenson,
the secretary ofdefense?
:50:21
I've read about him, sir.
:50:23
You won't be able to tell much
from his voice. He's hard as a rock.
:50:26
But we listen to him, Buck.
Ifhe gives advice, we take it.
:50:31
Yes, sir.
:50:39
Put the war conference room
at the Pentagon...
:50:41
and General Bogan in Omaha
on a conference line with me.
:50:44
Yes, sir.
:50:47
Ready, sir.
:50:49
- Mr. Swenson?
- Yes, Mr. President.
:50:51
Ifour fighters have to shoot down
the Vindicators, the worst is over.
:50:56
For us, anyway.
:50:58
I wantyour people now to consider
what we do ifwe can't shoot them down.
