I WONDER IF THEY'LL BE HAPPY.

MAYBE IT'D BE BETTER FOR THEM

IF WE WERE DEAD.

OH, CHRIST!

FUEL! THERE'S NO GODDAMN FUEL!

I TOLD YOU NEVER TO TAKE A TRIP

WITHOUT CHECKING THE TANK.

WHAT ABOUT THE RESERVE?

WE'RE ON RESERVE.

THAT'S GREAT.

I'LL START TO CIRCLE.

SEE IF YOU CAN FIND A LEVER AREA.

THERE.

OVER THERE, BEYOND THOSE CLIFFS.

ARE YOU SURE YOU KNOW

HOW TO LAND THIS THING?

FULL FLAPS.

I THINK WE'RE ON MARS.

WE GOT ABOUT 20 MINS.

HEAD START ON THEM.

IT'S NOT GONNA BE HARD TO SPO THIS PLANE FROM THE AIR.

WE GOT TWO CHOICES,

EITHER WE STICK TOGETHER, OR WE SPLIT UP

AND GO IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS.

HEY, I JUST FOUND A SURVIVAL KIT IN HERE.

THERE'S A CAN OF WATER EACH.

A FLARE EACH.

JOHN, YOU TAKE THE FLINT.

PETER AND I'LL SPLIT UP THE MATCHES.

ANYBODY WANT THE GUN?

I'D SHOOT MY FOOT.

I'D SHOOT HIS FOOT.

YOU CAN TAKE THE KNIFE.

REMEMBER, IF ANY OF US GETS CAUGHT,

OR HE CAN'T MAKE IT,

SHOOT OFF A FLARE,

SO THE OTHERS'LL KNOW.

I'LL CONTINUE WEST. JOHN, YOU GO NORTH.

PETER, YOU GO SOUTH.

WE CAME FROM THE EAST,

SO WE KNOW THAT'S THE WRONG WAY.

THERE'S NOT A LOTTA TIME.

THERE'S TOO MUCH TO SAY, SO LET'S GO.

IF ANY OF US MAKES IT...

WELL...

DID I EVER TELL YOU THE ONE ABOU THE GUY WHO HAD A JOB GIVING ENEMAS

TO ELEPHANTS, AND...?

THANKS.

DID YOU EVER HEAR IT?

YOU CAN TELL ME ABOUT I WHEN WE GET HOME.

TELL CHARLES THAT...

THANK HIM FOR THE COMPOSITION,

PLEASE.

I...

WELL, TELL HIM WHEN I GET BACK...

I'M GONNA TAKE HIM TO

YOSEMITE AGAIN,

LIKE LAST SUMMER.

I WILL.

RIGHT THERE. RUN IT AGAIN.

LIKE LAST SUMMER.

I WILL.

'LOOK, SIR. LOOK, SIR.

MR. KNOX, SIR, LET'S DO TRICKS

WITH BRICKS AND BLOCKS, SIR.

LET'S DO TRICKS

WITH CHICKS AND CLOCKS, SIR.'

BLOCKS! LOOK, BLOCKS!

RIGHT.

THERE ARE THE BLOCKS

AND THOSE ARE THE...

CLOCKS!

RIGHT.

'FIRST, I'LL MAKE A QUICK TRICK,

BRICK STACK.

THEN I'LL MAKE A QUICK TRICK,

BLOCK STACK.

YOU CAN MAKE A QUICK TRICK,

CHICK STACK.

YOU CAN MAKE A QUICK TRICK,

CLOCK STACK.

CHICKS!

AND...?

CLOCKS!

'AND HERE'S A NEW TRICK,

MR. KNOX.

SOCKS ON CHICKS:

AND CHICKS ON FOX.

FOX ON CLOCKS,

ON BRICKS AND BLOCKS.

BRICKS AND BLOCKS

ON FOX AND BOX.

NOW WE COME TO:

TICKS AND TOCKS, SIR.

TRY TO SAY THIS,

MR. KNOX, SIR,

CLOCKS...

CLOCKS ON FIX TICK,

CLOCKS ON KNOX TOCK.

CLOCKS!

CLOCKS!

CLOCKS.

RIGHT, SANDY, VERY GOOD.

'SIX, SICK,

BRICKS,

TICK... '

YES?

I'D LIKE TO SEE MRS. BRUBAKER.

MY NAME IS CAULFIELD.

MRS. BRUBAKER ISN'T SEEING

ANYONE.

I TELEPHONED THIS MORNING.

I BELIEVE I'M EXPECTED.

WHAT WAS THAT NAME AGAIN?

CAULFIELD. ROBERT CAULFIELD.

OH, YES. MRS. BRUBAKER

IS EXPECTING YOU.

SHE'S OUT ON THE PATIO.

IT'S RIGHT THROUGH THERE.

THANK YOU:

MRS. BRUBAKER?

MR. CAULFIELD?

SIT DOWN, PLEASE.

MRS. BRUBAKER, FIRST OF ALL,

I'D LIKE TO SAY I'M REALLY SORRY.

EVERYONE IS SOR...

I KNOW, AND I APPRECIATE IT.

DON'T BE TOO UNCOMFORTABLE WITH ME.

I COULDN'T PUT UP WITH THAT RIGHT NOW.

I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU THINK

YOU'RE INTERRUPTING ME,

AND YOU ARE,

BUT I WELCOME THE INTERRUPTION.

YOU CALLED AND SAID IT WAS SOMETHING

IMPORTANT. WHAT IS IT?

MRS. BRUBAKER, IT MAY NOT BE

IMPORTANT TO YOU.

I'M LOOKING FOR SOMETHING THAT MAY BE

IMPORTANT TO ME. IT'S PERSONAL.

YOU'RE A REPORTER, AREN'T YOU?

YES, AS I TOLD YOU,

I'M NOT LOOKING FOR AN INTERVIEW.

I WOULD LIKE TO ASK YOU

A FEW QUESTIONS:

ABOUT THE LAST TIME YOU SPOKE WITH

YOUR HUSBAND AFTER THE LANDING.

WHAT ABOUT IT?

WELL, THIS MAY SOUND STRANGE, MRS.

BRUBAKER, DON'T BE UPSET WITH ME.

JUST BEFORE THE CONVERSATION ENDED,

COLONEL BRUBAKER TOLD YOU SOMETHING

ABOUT GOING ON A VACATION

AND YOUR REACTION WAS LIKE YOU DIDN' UNDERSTAND WHAT HE WAS SAYING.

WHY WOULD YOU WANNA KNOW

ABOUT THAT?

AS I TOLD YOU, IT'S SOMETHING PERSONAL.

IT'S PERSONAL TO ME, TOO.

PLEASE, I'M NOT TRYING TO EMBARRASS YOU

OR ANYONE ELSE.

WHY WOULD ANY OF THIS BE

YOUR BUSINESS?

PLEASE, TRUST ME.

WHY?

YOU ASK REALLY GOOD QUESTIONS.

WELL, IT'S ALL SO SILLY.

IT WASN'T ANYTHING THAT DRAMATIC.

BRU JUST FORGOT SOMETHING, THAT'S ALL.

I DON'T SEE THE PURPOSE IN BROADCASTING

THAT MY HUSBAND MISTOOK A VACATION

WHEN HE HAD SO MANY OTHER THINGS

TO THINK ABOUT.

NO, NO, NO, I'M NOT LOOKING FOR

ANYTHING TO BROADCAST.

WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?

IT HAS TO DO WITH A FRIEND OF MINE.

IS THERE SOMETHING I SHOULD KNOW?

IF THERE WAS ANYTHING, I WOULD TELL YOU.

WELL, IT'S NOTHING.

BRU SAID THAT HE WANTED TO GO BACK

TO YOSEMITE LIKE LAST YEAR.

LAST YEAR, WE WENT TO FLAT ROCK,

NOT YOSEMITE.

I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANY COSMIC

SIGNIFICANCE IN THAT.

MRS. BRUBAKER, I TRULY THANK YOU.

I'M SURE YOU HAD BETTER THINGS TO DO

THAN PUT UP WITH A BUNCH OF

STUPID QUESTIONS.

NO, I DIDN'T.

HAVE I BEEN ANY HELP TO YOU AT ALL?

I DON'T KNOW.

MAY I CALL YOU AGAIN, SOMETIME?

YES.

YES?

THERE'S NO ONE INSIDE?

ARE YOU SURE?

GET MORE PERSONNEL,

THEY CAN'T GO TOO FAR ON FOOT.

OH, A PIECE OF CAKE.

CHARLES, CUT IT OUT.

YOU KNOW YOU'RE BOTHERING HER.

I KNOW YOU'RE BOTHERING HER AND

SHE KNOWS YOU'RE BOTHERING HER.

IF YOU WANT TO STAY IN THE POOL,

CUT IT OUT.

HI, UNCLE JIM.

HELLO THERE, CHARLES.

HELLO, KAY.

JIM.

YOU LOOK JUST FINE.

THANK YOU.

CAN I OFFER YOU SOMETHING TO DRINK?

NO, THANK YOU.

HOW ARE THE CHILDREN?

FINE.

CHARLES IS STRONG.

HE'S VERY MUCH TO HIMSELF,

BUT HE'S STRONG.

SANDY DOESN'T KNOW.

THERE'S GONNA BE A MEMORIAL SERVICE

ON TUESDAY, RIGHT HERE, IN HOUSTON.

PRESIDENT... THE PRESIDENT'LL BE HERE.

HE'S GOING TO SPEAK.

THAT'S NICE.

WILL I GET A FOLDED FLAG?

I WOULD LIKE YOU TO BE THERE.

PLEASE.

I KNOW HOW DIFFICULT EVERYTHING IS

FOR YOU RIGHT NOW.

I FEEL LIKE JACK THE RIPPER EVEN

ASKING YOU... IT'S JUST THAT...

IT WOULD BE GOOD FOR EVERYONE

IF YOU COULD GO WITH ME TO THE SERVICE.

IT'S A HORRIBLE WAY TO DIE.

NO, ABSOLUTELY NOT.

WHEN THE HEAT SHIELD SEPARATED,

IT WAS OVER IN LESS THAN 5 SECS.

I KNOW THAT SOUNDS GRIZZLY, BUT YOU JUS HAVE TO KNOW HE NEVER SUFFERED.

HE DIED DOING WHAT HE WANTED TO DO.

SOMETHING HE FELT WAS IMPORTAN ENOUGH TO DIE FOR.

I KNOW, I KNOW.

I DON'T THINK IT WAS IMPORTANT ENOUGH

FOR HIM TO DIE FOR.

I UNDERSTAND.

I'M SORRY, I'M SO SORRY.

I HAVE NO RIGHT TO INTRUDE ON YOU

LIKE THIS. I'LL CALL YOU TOMORROW.

JIM!

I'LL GO.

YOU'RE A VERY SPECIAL WOMAN.

HE WAS A VERY SPECIAL MAN.

THANK YOU.

HEY, UNCLE JIM!

YES?

MY DAD WENT TO MARS.

YES! YES, HE DID!

OH, I'M DEHYDRATING.

DEHYDRATING.

SIGN.

MANUAL SAYS...

LOOK FOR SIGNS.

WATER.

MANUAL SAYS...

SIGNS FOR WATER.

OH, DRIED RIVER BED.

BEND IN THE RIVER.

LOWER SIGNS.

BEND IN THE RIVER.

THERE'S JUST...

WATER.

RIVER BED.

A DRINK OF WATER.

ELIZABETH, THERE'S NO WATER.

THERE'S NO WATER.

I WANNA DIE.

ELIZABETH.

BIRDS.

ELIZABETH,

BIRDS.

I GOT TO GET THE BIRDS.

HELICOPTERS...

YES?

HE WAS ALONE?

WHICH DIRECTION WAS HE HEADING

FROM THE AIRPLANE?

AAH, LOOK SOUTH AND WEST ONLY.

CALL EVERYBODY OFF NORTH AND EAST.

THE OTHER TWO ARE SOUTH AND WEST.

HELLO, AGAIN.

HELLO, AGAIN.

CAN I OFFER YOU SOMETHING TO DRINK?
