I didn't think we're gonna make it!

I'm gonna start charging you for this stuff,

alright?

Hear me?

Hey, let me know if you need anything.

But what still seems so hard to believe

is that everyone aboard the plane survived...

including 2 shivering babies who were found

in a life wreck.

Hey!

Ah! Is, is that you?

- Are you the pilot? Sully? That is you, right?

- Yeah!

Hey, it's a pleasure to meet you.

The only question remaining is:

Will it be too late?
