At his press conference today,
President Roosevelt was asked:

:06:06
""Can you tell us, where did
those planes start from and go to?""

:06:13
He replied:
""Yes, the time has come to tell you.

:06:16
They came from our new
secret base at Shangri-la...""

:06:21
Well, my God, it's Captain Garth!
:06:23
I was expecting some junior officer.
This is an unexpected honor!

:06:28
Yeah, like hell it is, Joe!
:06:30
Admiral Nimitz sent me over to...
- To chew my ass off, huh?.

:06:35
Officially, I'm supposed to question
your estimate of Japanese intentions.

:06:40
Why so grim, Matt?. Doolittle's attack
should've thrilled you CinCPAC people.

:06:45
Not by a long shot.
That damn raid could boomerang on us.

:06:49
We only got 4 carriers
in the Pacific. We need to rebuild.

:06:53
Now the boss is afraid Yamamoto's
going to jump back at us. But where?.

:06:59
We got the latest intercepts here.
:07:05
Here's a list of Japanese ships
:07:08
we suspect will be assigned
to amphib operations south of Rabaul.

:07:14
The Coral Sea! That's where
we think they'll strike next.

:07:20
But something else is stirring,
something out our way.

:07:24
We need facts, not guesswork.
:07:26
Matt, we cracked Yamamoto's code,
but we can't just reel it off.

:07:31
We get a flicker here
and a glimmer there.

:07:35
How much can you decipher?.
- Hell, 15, maybe...

:07:38
Really decipher.
- Ten percent.

:07:41
10 per... That's one word in 10.
For Christ's sake, you're guessing!

:07:49
We like to call it ""analysis"".
:07:52
Alright. What are these indications
that something's brewing out our way?.

:07:57
There's no hard clues yet.
- What do you have, Joe?.
