1:40:03
Put me through to Dr. Robertson.
1:40:05
In work, sir.
1:40:06
Burke, you didn't special alert
1:40:08
an M.C.N. Message to us.
1:40:09
There haven't been any, sir.
1:40:10
The bell didn't ring...
1:40:12
Don't argue, damn it!
1:40:13
I've got one in my hand.
1:40:16
Well, well. About time
we heard from you.

1:40:19
There has been a communications foul-up.
1:40:21
Never mind that now.
1:40:21
Why hasn't that bomb
been dropped on Piedmont?

1:40:23
The decision on 7-12 isn't final.
1:40:25
It was just postponed 48 hours.
1:40:27
By then the disease could spread
1:40:29
into a worldwide epidemic.
1:40:30
It's because of rash
statements like that

1:40:32
the president doesn't trust scientists.
1:40:34
Warn the president
it may already be too late.

1:40:36
Stay on his back, Robbie.
1:40:37
You've got to make him call a 7-12.
1:40:39
Can you get me another
appointment tonight, Grimes?

1:40:41
Now let's all just keep
our heads screwed on.

1:40:44
Any thoughts about
the Phantom crash?

1:40:47
We sent you a couple messages on it.
1:40:50
A Phantom jet strayed over the
cordoned area around Piedmont.

1:40:53
Any other information?
1:40:54
Well, the pilot said...
1:40:56
that all the rubber on
the plane was dissolving.

1:40:59
His last communication was pretty weird.
1:41:01
Like he was crazy?
1:41:01
He was mighty confused, that's for sure.
1:41:03
Robbie, it's your job
to get the president

1:41:06
to activate a 7-12 immediately.
1:41:07
If he doesn't, there's no guarantee
1:41:08
anyone west of Piedmont
1:41:09
will be alive in the morning.
1:41:10
Simmer down, Professor.
1:41:12
I'll wake the boss.
1:41:13
But General Sparks says
the crash was just a fluke.

1:41:16
Forget the crash, Robbie.
1:41:17
Stay on that 7-12 and get back to me.
1:41:19
We'll be working around the clock.
1:41:53
That's a good slice.
1:41:55
It's too thick.
