Watch the ladder.

Hey, Mike. . .
2:08:48
. . .deputy wants to see you.
2:09:01
Mike, we've been checking
the situation in the Promenade Room.

2:09:05
We figure they've got
17 or 18 minutes left, if that.

2:09:09
It'll take more than 3 hours
to get them down by breeches buoy.

2:09:12
They'll die up there
if something's not done.

2:09:14
We might have the answer.
2:09:16
Johnson's a structural engineer.
Tell the chief your calculations.

2:09:20
The structural strength
of the joists in that room. . .

2:09:23
. . .could definitely
withstand the explosion.

2:09:28
What explosion?
2:09:31
Chief, we've got the copter ready.
2:09:33
Wait a minute. We'll handle that.
2:09:35
Just get back to your job.
2:09:39
Yes, sir.
2:09:42
What explosion?
2:09:44
We can blow the tanks
two floors above the Promenade Room.

2:09:47
They hold 1,000,000 gallons of water.
That's enough to drown the fire.

2:09:54
-You're crazy.
-Mike, it's the only way.

2:09:58
You could kill everybody up there.
