:23:00
providing Nimitz and Halsey
do exactly what you expect.
:23:08
The Enterprise and the Hornet
are due in by sundown.
:23:11
The rest of the task force
should be in by morning.
:23:14
The Yorktown is more
severely damaged than we thought.
:23:18
How soon can we dry-dock her?.
:23:20
By the 17th, if a Jap sub
doesn't spot the oil she's trailing.
:23:25
Admiral Fletcher
just radioed in with a repair list.
:23:31
Tell the yard repairman I want
every workman he can get to board her.
:23:36
That sharpshooter from Washington
just landed. Be here in 30 minutes.
:23:40
Who did they send?.
- Captain Vinton Maddox.
:23:42
Maddox. He's a damned scalp hunter!
:23:45
See that he's thoroughly briefed,
and get Captain Garth up here.
:23:50
Admiral,
why don't you let me handle it?.
:23:53
No, he's entitled to a crack at me.
Phone that in.
:24:00
Are those arming switches fixed?.
- No, we still got some damn snafu.
:24:05
Get them working 100%, or rip them
out of all our SBDs. Is that clear?.
:24:12
Yes, Sir.
- Get to it.
:24:20
Sorry to drag you out of bed so early,
but it's our only chance to talk.
:24:24
It's OK. Did you get the report?.
- Yup.
:24:28
I've already read it.
:24:34
Did you know your girl
:24:36
belonged to those
Japanese patriotic organizations?.
:24:42
I saw the magazines,
but I didn't know it was propaganda.
:24:46
The Attorney General's office
says it's subversive.
:24:49
And the FBl doesn't think she's
telling the truth about coming here.
:24:54
You can't blame them for that.
- Sure I can! And I can clear it up!
:24:59
You cool down
and let me handle this!
