All right, Maxwell!

Commander Skywalker reporting in.

Rudy, I want you to make sure

that RMS arm is in lock.

Double-check everything.

Radio check is okay.

What about these doors over here?

It's okay. They have to be able

to get back in.

Okay, Max, get strapped

into the RMS,

and Rudy will swing you

over to Daedalus.

Roger.

No way!

Let me in!

I changed my mind!

Let me in! Please let me in!

Let me in!

I changed my mind!

Max, you have to help Andie.

Let me in!

Please let me in!

Luke.

Luke.

Use the Force, Luke.

Stretch out your feelings.

The Force is always with you.

- Look!

- Go, Max.

- You can do it.

- Unbelievable.

Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Help me.

Rudy!

I'm sorry, Max.

Hang in there.

It's me!

I'm hereto rescue you!

God!

I'm small enough

to reach the oxygen.

Yeah.

That's the way, Max.

Now unstrap the tank

and pass it over to me.

Only one minute left.

Okay, Max, I'm gonna take this

back to the ship.

The sooner you get

that second tank,

the sooner we can go home.

I'm hurrying, Andie. Honest.

I know you are.

Rudy, please keep

that arm steady.

He's doing the best that he can.

I know, but she is trying

to load the cannisters.

Could you guys argue

without talking?

Well, that's it, campers.

All we have left

is the air in the cabin.

Oh, my God!

Oh, no!

Andie!

Save me!

Max!

I can't stop!

Look, Max.

Max-

I'm right behind you.

I can't stop!

Don't worry.

I'm not gonna let you

get away from me.

I'm getting closer.

I can't stop!

- Come on!

- Hold steady.

Reach your hand out.

I'm trying to.

- I'm gonna get you.

- I can't reach!

Help! Andie!

I'm almost there.

I've got your foot.

Okay, I've got your foot.

You think you're scared now?

Wait till your parents get the bill

for breaking Daedalus.

Forty minutes to re-entry.

They're cradling the arm.

Let's hope there's oxygen

on the end of it.

Connect the tank hose cap to the...

...blue valve.

Which one?

There are two.

Rudy, remember,

this is pure oxygen.

If we make the wrong connection,

we're gonna be sitting

in the middle of a fireball.

You must get it right.

It's the blue valve

next to the green.

There is no blue one

next to a green.

No, no, not green.

I meant yellow.

Rudy, we're all gonna be dead

before you make up your mind.

It's the blue valve

next to the red.

It's the wrong hose.

It is not.

It's the red one.

Will somebody please

make a decision?

It's the red one.

It's the yellow!

I have been studying this book

since I came to camp.

I know I'm right.

Believe me.

Do it, Andie.

It's the blue valve

next to the yellow valve.

Please.

Good job, Rudy.

- All right!

- That was cutting it close.

- They got air!

- All right!

Let's get this thing

programmed for re-entry.

Put 'em on auto

and bring 'em on home!

Okay, Max, I have it now.

You can go in the airlock.

And, Max...

Thanks.

Andie!

Andie?

No.

What's happening?

Status check'?

We are closing the cargo bay doors.

Prepare for de-orbit burn.

What's going on?

Nothings responding.

Who's closing

the cargo bay doors?

Help me!

Andie's not in yet!

Come on, Andie.

Please.

It's NASA. They're bringing us

down on auto.

Well, make 'em stop!

Come on.

I don't have her!

Stop the doors!

She's not in!

Look at Andie.

Andie, do you hear us?

Andie, come in.

Andie, can you read us?

T minus 23 minutes

for re-entry window.

Prepare for RSC burn.

Let's turn 'em around

for deceleration.

There's a manual

override switch here.

I saw it.

Where is it?

Here it is.

If we override NASA,

we'll miss the window.

We've gotta go now.

We can't leave Andie.

She'll die.

Yaw manoeuvre complete.

Stand by for OMS burn.

Kathryn, take the window.

It's your only chance.

Prepare for de-orbit burn.

Ready for countdown.

Ten...

Nine seconds.

Five...

Do something, Kathryn.

Two seconds.

Rudy, open the cargo bay doors.

Tish, unstow the medical kit.

Listen, we're going

to open the doors.

Bring Andie in.

This time use the foot restraints.

Hang in there, buddy.

- All right, Rudy, do it.

- Now?

Come on, Andie.

Help me run a check

on the manual systems.

Come on, Andie.

Okay, Max.

Okay, let her go.

I got her.

All right, guys,

let's take this thing off her.

Andie? Andie.

I'll get her gloves.

Let's get her out of the EMU.

- Transport her to the sleep station.

- Tish, anything?

No, nothing.

I don't get it.

Why would she override auto?

And miss the window.

How much oxygen did they buy?

Not enough to make it

to the next window at Edwards.

Why would she

miss their last chance?

What the hell else

is going wrong up there?

How is she?

I think she

shattered her arm

and she broke her ribs.

I don't know, really.

So, Kevin,

what the hell do we do?

Rudy, I don't know.

Well, we have got to do something.

Christ, I'm not a doctor!

I don't know what to do!

Look, guys...

Just get back to your stations,

and I'll stay here...

with Andie.

I want to stay with Andie.

I'll stay with Andie, okay?

You just get back

to your stations.

I guess we just keep doing

what we're doing.

We missed the window.

I know.

We don't have enough oxygen

to last till the primary for Edwards.

- You did the right thing.

- Yeah?

Do they think so?

Andie's part of the crew.

You took responsibility for her.

Somebody had to.

Great.

That's what makes

a good flight commander.

I'm a good pilot,

but I'm no commander.

My mom always says that...

...being boss and being bossy

isn't the same.

I'm never gonna

see her again, am I?

Come on. Come on.

- There's nothing new here.

- There's something we're missing.

Yes, Mr. President.

We'll stay in touch.

The only thing

we're missing is a miracle.

- I've got an idea.

- Let's hear it.

Come here.

Hey. guys.

I've got a question.

I was looking outside

and wondering,

is Edwards the only place

where we can land?

- I don't know. ls it?

- I don't know.

I remember reading about the shuttle

landing in White Plains or something.

Come on, it's in the middle

of New York.

White Sands.

White Sands, New Mexico.

Columbia of '82 landed there

'cause the strip at Edwards

was too wet.

So if we could make

the window to White Sands...

We can land there.

Tish, get going.

- Make them hear us.

- All right.

Rudy, I love you.

- Check out the coordinates.

- You got it.

Max, take care of Andie for me.

Let's see if we can

navigate this bird ourselves.

I'm not gonna speculate

about anything.

What about the kids?

As soon as I have something

to confirm, I will.

Jinx put Max in space.

Jinx can get Max back.

Jinx put Max in space.

Jinx can get Max back.

Jinx put Max in space.

How'd you know

about Max, Jinx?

Jinx and Max friends forever.

Jesus Christ.

Get that thing out of here.

Get security.

Maybe he can help us,

unless you've got a better idea.

Wait a minute!

Jinx, how can you help NASA?

C- O-M-E I-N...

C- O-N- T-R- O-L...

Take it out of here.

Get it out.

...M-E I-N...
