Marianne!
Marianne, come on!
We got to go right now!
We can't leave!
Honey, we got to go right this
second. We can't leave! Not yet.
Look at these readings!
Let's stick around.
Forget the readings!
Juan, Chico,
get what you can quickly!
Where are
the seismic records?
We can't wait.
Come on, Marianne!
Come quick! Come on!
See you at the fort!
Chico, stay close behind us, okay?
Come on, get in!
I hope they'll be okay.
I can't even
see the road.
Are you okay?
If we make it
through this...
We'll have
some stories to tell.
Oh, sh*t, honey.
Sh*t!
We're going to get out.
Don't worry.
Marianne?
Oh, no!
Harry Dalton here.
Leave a message.
Harry, are you there?
Come on, pick up.
Come on,
I know you're there.
We're picking up something
in the Northern Cascades.
I need your opinion on it.
Listen, get down here as
soon as you get this message.
You better pack
for a couple of days.
Harry, are you sure
you're not there?
Take a big step.
Come on.
What are you
doing here?
You're supposed to be
on vacation.
Paul called. There's something
going on in the Northern Cascades.
You can't leave work alone,
can you?
Harry, going on vacation
isn't going to kill you.
I appreciate that.
Thanks.
Good morning.
What's going on
in the Cascades?
I am sorry I had to
drag you in like this,
but we are picking up some
activity around Dante's Peak.
This is a joke, right?
Dante's Peak?
What do you think the odds
are against an eruption?
1,000-to-1?
More like 10,000-to-1.
What's the depth?
10 to 20 kilometers.
You're number seven.
It's on the corner there.
Good man.
Any idea where
I'll find Mayor Wando?
She should be right around the
corner, accepting some award.
Dante's Peak was
just named the best...
Second-best place to live
in the United States.
Population under 20,000.
Good for you.
What was number one?
I don't know. Some piece of crap
town out in Montana. Who cares?
I'll be seeing you.
Okay.
I'd like to thank Karen
from Money Magazine
for this wonderful award.
What is it?
Lauren,
is it Karen or Kathy?
It's Karen, Mom.
For the tenth time: Karen.
You're going to be late.
Seen my good jacket?
You don't have one.
The blue one?
Oh, that one.
It's on the back of
the chair in the kitchen.
Graham, it's time to go.
Where is your brother?
He'll meet us there.
There's your jacket.
Okay.
Let's go!
You'll be late!
I got to say something.
Folks, we're real sorry
for the delay.
We're going to get
started in one moment.
Any moment now.
Go find a place, okay?
Okay.
Hey, Bill.
Hey, Rachel.
Thank God.
Ladies and gentlemen,
I'd like to introduce
the mayor of Dante's Peak,
Rachel Wando.
It's about time.
Ladies and gentlemen,
this is a very special day
in Dante's Peak.
To kick off
the festivities,
I would like to introduce Karen
Narlington of Money Magazine.
Thank you.
Thank you very much, Les.
Mayor Wando,
to present to you
Dante's Peak,
the second most desirable place
to live in the United States
population under 20,000.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Karen!
Thank you, Karen.
Thank you, Lauren.
This award means
a lot to us.
We've been proud of our
town for a long time.
It's beautiful, it's safe, it's a
wonderful place in which to raise a family.
Tell 'em, Mayor!
Now, with the prospect of a major
investment in our economic future
by Mr. Elliot Blair
of Blair Industries...
Will you stand up, Elliot?
Next year we're going to be
number one.
You'll love this.
Come on in.
It's great.
Is it really warm?
It's beautiful.
Yeah.
It's really hot.
I think that's why they
call it Twonset Hot Springs.
So, is this great
or what?
Sure beats the hell
out of L.A.
Yes, it does.
Maybe we should move here.
I don't think so.
I'd go nuts in a week.
It's nothing. Some animal
must have scared them.
Jerry?
What the hell was that?
Oh, my God!
So, everybody get out there, have a
great time, and enjoy this beautiful day.
Good job, Mom.
Where is your brother?
I don't know.
I know where.
Mayor Wando?
Harry Dalton with
the U.S. Geological Survey.
A wonderful speech, Rachel.
Excuse me, Mayor Wando,
gentlemen...
I'm sorry, you are?
Harry Dalton.
From Portland.
Yes, your boss called
and said you were coming.
Elliot, can I call you later? Sure.
I should show you around.
Right?
Is this a good time?
Yeah.
Just have
to make a quick stop.
Sure, that's okay.
What are we doing here?
This'll only
take a second.
So, you have any kids?
No, I don't.
You're lucky.
Right, Mom?
No, honey. Sometimes having
kids is just wonderful.
And sometimes...
Graham!
My brother, Graham,
he's in a lot of trouble.
Yes, I think he is.
Graham!
You get in trouble?
No.
Of course not.
Graham!
I'm coming.
Get in the car.
You boys, go home.
You should know better.
See you, guys.
I don't know
what's wrong with you.
Can we do this
another time?
The mine is dangerous.
It's off-limits.
Whatever.
Hey, Rachel!
Hey!
Hey, Jane.
I heard Mrs. Mackey
was sick.
You know,
just a touch of the flu.
And how are you?
Dr. Fox, this is Harry Dalton of
the United States Geological Survey.
Oh, hey.
How do you do?
Nice meeting you.
'Bye Jane.
'Bye.
Do you want to see it?
It looks like
black liquorice.
Can I see it?
You know what this is?
This is a smoky
quartz crystal.
I had one just like it
when I was your age.
Very lucky.
Do you know
about this stuff?
Just a little bit.
Dr. Dalton's a geologist.
Volcanologist, actually.
You mean like Dr. Spock?
Mr. Spock.
Kind of, but without the ears, you know?
Mom, drop me off
at Grandma's.
Yeah, me too.
You're not
tagging along.
Stop fighting. No!
No one's going.
Dr. Dalton has been
patient enough.
It's okay to drop the kids off
at your mother's. I don't mind.
She's not my mother.
She's my mother-in-law.
Or my ex-mother-in-law.
My, my.
This is beautiful.
Grandma!
Grandma!
Well, look who's here.
Hi, ace. How are you?
Good.
Keeping out of trouble?
Yeah.
Lauren, my ladybug.
Hello, Ruth.
Hi, Rachel.
Come on, Rough.
Are you Rachel's boyfriend?
No, Harry Dalton. United
States Geological Survey.
Just up here to check
on your mountain.
Bunch of you people came up here right
after Mount Saint Helens went nuts.
There was nothing
going on then.
There's nothing
going on now.
I need to take Dr. Dalton
up to the high lake
and wondered if the kids
could stay here.
Sure. But why don't we
all go? We can go swimming.
Mess around in the hot
springs on the way back?
We've our swim stuff.
I'll get mine.
Come on, Roughy,
come on.
Come on, girl, come on.
Okay, Roughy, come on.
What are you doing there?
Checking the acidity
in the water.
Like a pool man.
Yeah, exactly.
Just like a pool man.
We'll take these
pH readings
and check them against the ones
that we did about 15 years ago.
Where? From here?
