:43:00
Is there an alternate route?
:43:03
We can go forward on this course but...
that means going directly through the heart.
:43:08
No, we can't do that either.
We decided in the briefing.
:43:12
This craft couldn't stand the turbulence.
:43:14
It would be a hundred times worse
than the whirlpool.
:43:17
That's just dandy!
We can't go forward and we can't go back.
:43:21
There's only one thing we can do.
Call off the mission.
:43:26
We've no choice. We've got to take them out.
:43:29
No. We've still got 51 minutes. Leave 'em in.
:43:33
But it's hopeless.
They can't go back and they can't go on.
:43:37
There's no choice but to remove them.
:43:39
Not until the last second. We gotta
think of something to save the situation.
:43:43
Proteus reports trapped in venous system.
Requests removal, sir.
:43:47
Well, there it is.
:43:49
What do I tell them, General?
:44:01
Doctor...
:44:04
Without killing him,
how long could we stop his heart?
:44:09
- The less time the better.
- I know, but what's the maximum?
:44:12
In his comatose state and
everything slowed down,
:44:15
no more than 60 seconds.
:44:17
At top speed, adjusting distance
for degree of miniaturisation,
:44:21
that sub should get through the heart
in exactly 57 seconds.
:44:25
That's only three seconds to revive him.
:44:27
What are the problems involved
in stopping the heart?
:44:31
Nothing - compared with starting it up again.
:44:36
We're wasting time. Let's get on with it.
:44:39
Message to Proteus.
:44:41
- Cardiac red alert.
- Maintaining maximum speed,
:44:44
the sub should get through the heart
in 57 seconds.
:44:48
This will allow us three seconds to spare
in which to revive him.
:44:52
To minimise the turbulence
we will have to arrest the heart.
:44:55
Prepare for cardiac shock. Remove the radar.
:44:59
The Proteus will proceed
to the entrance of the right atrium,
