because of some gutless paramedic,
you'd better get
a reality check.
- Start sending those people in here.
- Nord !
- Stay there !
- Get me outta here !
I'm ready to go !
Stay ! That's it.
Don't move, please.
Nord, I hope you make it.
Get outta here !
I always make it, Mr. Latura.
Move it !
Keep going !
Faster ! Faster !
Don't look back !
Keep going !
- It's caving in !
- You played me, fool man !
Get down !
Aaah !
All the D.T.A.'s
I don't care if some guy's wife
is having a baby.
Quiet, everybody.
Everybody, quiet down.
Hey, shut up !
Shut up, everybody !
The mid-river just went down.
[ Barking ]
No, no, no, no, no !
[ Shouting ]
Mr. Latura !
- Easy, easy.
Don't talk, don't talk.
Give me a scarf.
Please, I can't be goin' out
like this, man.
[ Gasping ]
I can't feel nothin'.
- Shh.
- I can't go out like this.
That's right.
Don't talk.
Tell my father I was helping people
down here, all right ?
I'll find him.
I'll tell your father
that you were a real hero.
[ Gasping ]
He won't--
He won't--
He won't believe you.
[ Gasping, Gagging ]
Oh, Christ !
Oh !
Oh, God, this is too much.
- Hey, stop him !
- Get off me !
Let me go !
Listen to me !
This tunnel runs downhill.
- The Manhattan end will be
- He's right.
Come on. This way.
It's higher.
Excuse me. Excuse me !
I don't know what you know
and what you don't.
All I know is I've got a 14-year-old,
and her life means more than anything.
So I wanna be involved in any decisions.
Am I clear, Mr. Latura ?
- That's fair enough.
It was in the papers.
Some kind of scandal ?
- What kind of scandal ?
- Not the kind that matters down here.
I beg to differ, Mr. Latura.
Scandals matter to
Mrs. Trilling and myself.
Excuse me, ma'am,
what kind of scandal ?
He was chief
of the Emergency Medical Service.
Some people got killed, and he
was involved. That's all I remember.
Is that true ?
I asked you a question,
and I want to know the answer !
- Is it true ? Is that true ?
- Hey ! Hey !
Let's remember that
he came down here to help us,
so let's stop focusing on him
She's right.
I'm sorry, Mr. Latura.
That was very rude.
Rude ? What is this, some kind
of goddamn New York country club ?
- Watch your mouth.
- You don't have a child down here !
And his past may have
a great deal to do with our future !
and he's all we've got !
If I'm all you've got, why don't you
meet me halfway ? Is that fair enough ?
- No.
- What is your name ?
- Ashley.
Ashley, there's time to stop
the leak before it gets high
enough to worry about drowning.
- That's the good news.
- What's the bad news ?
This water's 38 degrees. What we
have to worry about is hypothermia.
- Hypo what ?
- Hypothermia.
Your body loses heat
and shuts down.
You feel like you're getting tired,
but you're really getting dead.
But that's not gonna happen
to us, because we're gonna
look out for each other.
We're gonna stay high and dry
right on this car dam over here,
so everybody
get on the car dam.
Get the hell outta this water.
Let's get outta the water.
Excuse me, could you
please help me with the dog ?
[ Cooper Whimpering ]
Thanks very much.
Here, boy.
Come here.
Okay, so here we are.
We're high and dry.
So what do you plan on doing ?
In a situation like this,
it's very important that everybody
knows exactly what is happening, okay ?
That last thing we need
is any more surprises, right ?
What I'm gonna try to do
is collapse a section of that tube...
to seal us off from the fire
and try to plug that leak.
- How do you plan to do that ?
- I have to use an explosive.
- Wait, please, let me explain !
- That's your idea down here ?
No wonder you got people killed.
- Steven.
now is the time to tell me.
You don't know what kind of damage
this substructure's already sustained,
so how do you know you can
contain it to one section ?
I don't know !
I don't know anything !
The only thing I know is we're
not gonna make it another hour
unless I shut this thing down !
That I do know.
What we need is someone
to go to the Manhattan end...
to see if we're making
any progress, okay ?
- [ Explosion ]
- How about you ?
No, you can't go, Daddy !
- I have a family.
I don't want to leave 'em.
- But you're so good at it.
[ George ]
All right, I'll go.
- I know the place best, anyway.
- You're hired.
- What ?
- You're George, right ?
- Yeah.
- Grace said to tell you
- She told you that ?
- Good luck, man.
She can't keep anything
to herself.
Listen, you were the one
handling that live wire ?
Uh, yeah, but that
was a very different thing.
I didn't know--
- I need your help right now.
- I appreciate that,
but I don't know anything--
Listen. It took a lot of guts
to do that. What's your name ?
- Uh, Madelyne.
- Madelyne, I need your help, okay ?
Look at this.
A stress hold design.
Better than we did
on Brooklyn-Queens.
-What do you think we're gonna do here ?
-Open it up.
Open it up ?
Let's open it up.
Okay. Still not getting
any trace of them, am I right ?
There was a meltdown on the
phone lines. Walkie-talkies
have been known to go dead.
you don't know whether there's
anyone to transmit, period ?
- We saw people !
- Hours ago.
We're gonna break through from
the Manhattan side. That's the
consensus of the city engineers.
- Consensus my ass !
- Who's this ?
- That tunnel's being held up
by counterpoint pressure.
- I asked your name !
Why don't you forget what her name is ?
Listen to what she's saying to you.
cause a pressure shift,
the whole thing could implode.
- That's speculation.
We are time poor.
That tunnel is an artery.
The city is bleeding.
Look, you try to redirect
half a million people
in and out of this city...
without that tunnel, you got a problem
Are you saying that because
of a traffic problem...
you're giving up
Come on, man.
You gotta hold off on the drill.
Look, the city engineers
make the decisions.
You clean up the mess.
- [ Kit ] You're doing real good.
- [ Maddy ] Doin' real good ?
Try scared to death.
Maybe, but you're
dealing with it.
I think you should get someone else.
This is not one of my specialties.
Not a lot of people could handle
that cable the way you did.
- Well, it's not like it had a lot of--
- [ Both Gasp ]
- It's okay. It's okay.
- I can't. I can't.
