:10:01
We've received an invitation to, um,
cooperate in a matter of national security.

:10:06
Now you know as much as I do.
:10:08
Get your gear off and get to control.
We've got a briefing in ten minutes.

:10:12
Come on! Let's move it!
:10:14
At 0922 local time today
an American nuclear submarine,

:10:18
the USS Montana,
with 156 men aboard, went down

:10:23
- about 22 miles from here.
- Damn!

:10:24
There's been no contact with the sub since
then. The cause of the incident is not known.

:10:29
Your company has authorised
the navy's use of this facility

:10:32
for a rescue operation
code-named Operation Salvor.

:10:36
- You want us to search for the sub?
- No. We know where it is.

:10:40
But she's in 2,000 feet of water
and we can't reach her.

:10:43
We need divers to enter the sub
and search for survivors... if any.

:10:46
Don't you have your own stuff for this?
:10:49
By the time we get our submersibles here,
the storm'll be on us.

:10:52
You can get your rig in and be on site
in 15 hours. That makes you our best option.

:10:56
Why should we risk our butts
for something like this?

:10:59
I have been authorised
to offer you all special bonuses

:11:03
equivalent to three times normal dive pay.
:11:05
Yes, sir, buddy!
:11:07
For triple time, I'd eat Beany!
:11:09
Set me on fire
and put me out with horse piss.

:11:12
I don't know what kind of deal
you made with the company,

:11:15
but my people are not qualified for this.
We're oil workers.

:11:19
Shut up! Hold it down.
:11:21
This is Lieutenant Coffey.
:11:23
He will transfer down to you with
a SEAL team and supervise the operation.

:11:27
Send down whoever you like,
but I'm the tool pusher on this rig.

:11:30
When it comes to the safety of these people,
there's me and then God.

:11:34
Understand? If things get dicey,
:11:36
I'm pulling the plug.
:11:40
I think we're all
on the same wavelength, Brigman.

:11:43
Now, let's get the wellhead uncoupled,
shall we?
