[music] [music]
[music] Yeah.
[music] Yeah.

Heat. [music]
[music] The purpose of the film you are about to
see is to put before you the facts about a danger that confronts us. It will tell
you what you must know in order to survive.
For your own safety, it is important that you believe only the truth. And
that is what you are about to see. As you know, your government and the
government of Soviet Russia have been sending satellites into outer space to
observe conditions that human explorers are liable to encounter when they get
there. As part of our program, the satellite Spacem was put into orbit a
thousand miles above the Earth some months ago.
Its official designation was XM712. It carried recording devices, radio
transmitters, cameras, and the usual non-human passengers.
It differed in one respect from [music] other satellites launched during the
past year. Provisions were made for bringing it back from outer space
intact. [music]
It [music] was successfully placed in orbit at 0700 on the morning of December
4th as scheduled. Moon watch stations,
radar scopes, [music] and instruments kept track of it,
observing it night and day as it hurdled cometlike 1,000 mi up through outer
space. These are the men who put the space master into orbit and who brought
it back to Earth intact. Among them were scientists and engineers from many of
the great universities of the country. Also present on the morning I speak of
were John Hand, assigned to security duty with this office and an army
orderly named Ratigan. And Dr. Charles T. Palmer, formerly of John's Hopkins,
was a biologist attached to the project. 50,000 ft. Dr. Palmer, it's re-entered
safely. Good. Then I have my sample from outer
space. Looks like Paula got what he was after.
Now he'll have a chance to prove there's life in outer space.
Sure. Little green men in flying sauces. Wrong, Mr. H. Not little green men. Tell
me, do you find this planet so lonely that you have to look to the stars for
company? I put the chance that we'll find any creatures in the universe that
resemble us in any way at a billion to one. Oh, I'm convinced there's life out
there, but in a form so strange as to be beyond anything you can imagine.
30,000 ft. This is an security
712 is coming down. Let me know as soon as you get a fix on its landing.
Right. I'll hold here. [music] Triangulation by
radar pinpointed the exact spot on the desert floor where the satellite [music]
impacted and troops were sent to recover the remains of the space vehicle [music]
and the equipment it carried. [music]
One such piece of equipment was a special canister designed by Dr. Charles
Palmer for the purpose of bringing back [music] samples of microscopic life from
outer space. He was given permission to work on the
contents of this canister in his own laboratory. [music]
Private Ratigan was assigned to drive him there.
[music] Thank you, Ratigan.
Dr. Palmer, I'd sure like to see your lab.
Oh, very well. Come along. Thank you.
Oh. Uh, Ratigan, not tonight. What?
I want to get right to work. Yes, sir.
[music] [music]
[music] So, you've come back, huh?
Yes, but I'm not going to stay. No.
No. And I don't want anyone to know I came here.
Well, I've always kept your little secrets, haven't I?
Oh, the torch is out. Huh? Completely.
For being a selfish man, I'm sorry. Who is he? my husband.
Oh, congratulations. Well, we have to drink to the man who made an honest
woman of you. Well, now, Charles, I'm not
Make some martinis. You know how I like it.
You haven't changed a bit, have you? Why should I change?
[clears throat] [music]
[music] [music]
I suppose he's the reason you're here. You don't suppose at all. You know he's
the reason. Where [music] is he? Boarding school. House without a woman
is no place for a boy. Neither is a boarding school.
[music] I can take care of him now. I want him. Bring your husband around
sometime. We'll talk over. I [music] can't do that.
You mean you haven't told him about us? No. And I'm not going to. [music]
What's he going to think if you come home with the boy?
People adopt children. We better give the matter some thought.
Please, Churu. With a little dusting, you'll find the
spare bedroom habitable. I wouldn't stay here under any
circumstances. Oh, come now, Laura. You weren't always
so puritanical. I said we'd have to give the matter some thought. My husband
doesn't know I'm here. He thinks I'm at home waiting for him.
Where's home? Hawaii.
Where's he? He's on a business trip.
Well, then you see, we have plenty of time to talk.
Charles, Laura, I'm in the middle of an
experiment. You know me well enough to know what that means.
We don't have lots of time. I've got to get home before he does.
That's your concern, not mine. Well, I'm not going to stay here.
[music] [music]
[music] [music]
[music] [music]
[music] It is a fact well known to all
astronomers that a reddish rust or blight seems to cover the planet Mars
during regular seasons. I therefore came to the conclusion that
the stuff was a highly destructive fungus
reproducing itself by microscopic spores. Its spores may incubate and set
up new growth in less than a minute under ideal conditions or in a matter of
weeks under less favorable conditions. These microscopic spores may be carried
unwittingly by any person who has contact with the organism either on his
clothing or his skin. Because of its color, I call this
organism blood rust. 2:32 p.m. Wednesday, 12th, feeding
cultures again. This is the 20th time since their incubation.
As the specimens grow, their need for nourishment also increases. The
specimens tolerate only protein in their diet. They might be called carnivorous.
In fact, you got to talk to me. I can't stay here
much longer. I told you not to bother me.
Why are you doing this? Why can't you be more human?
Will you please get out and leave me alone? I'll talk to you later.
No. Yes. What is it?
Doctor, this is Han. I'm checking to find out how your experiment is coming.
My experiment is coming fine. It's successful. There's life in outer space.
May I come out? No, you may not. I'll call you when I'm
ready for you. That arrogant.
I know what you [clears throat] mean. I sure got the brush last night.
He's on to something. All right. Well, he isn't ready to talk about it.
He says there is life in outer space. Hey, that's terrific news. He's probably
confirmed his theory. Developed the spores of some parasitic plant life.
Boy, what I'd give to be working with. Wait a minute.
Sit down. Yes, sir.
How do you know so much about him? Oh, I I met him when I uh I was going to
college. I attended all his lectures. Then um later I was working for my
master's degree. I was his assistant for a while.
Master's degree, huh? Yes, sir.
And now you're driving a jeep, huh? Well, it's a lot better than baking
bread. That's what they had me doing when I was first drafted. You know, I
was on my way to being a pretty good cook, too. A little too fancy for the
army perhaps, but imaginative. Anyway, u somebody found out I had a
master's degree, so they transferred me over to this outfit.
You know Thomas so well. Why doesn't he do something for you?
He will when he gets around to it. He's a strange man. He's sharp as a
razor and just about as narrow. He's got a streak of cruelty in him, a yard wide.
Uh, if you don't mind, sir, when you drive out there, I'd sure like to go
along. The pleasure is all yours.
Thank you, sir. Interconnecting neurons throughout the
mass supply the motile impulses that conduct all its functions. These
apparently originate in the nearest ganglen.
A remarkable feature of this organism is that every ganglen
feature of this organism is that is that each individual ganglen connects
with every other one. In fact, it is one huge and highly developed brain. At the
slightest disturbance, each ganglen is capable of shooting out countless tiny
spore. These invisible [clears throat] spores, I am convinced, will settle on
any living thing that dares to approach it.
And after a period of incubation, we'll proceed to devour it.
Will you please go away? Not until we get this settled.
All right. Wait in there. [music]
[music] All right. Now, what's so important?
I want my son. Please let me have him. What about your husband? Will he be a
good father? Of course he will. He's a wonderful man.
Wonderful? If he's so wonderful, why are you afraid to tell him about us?
Because he's jealous. He's so jealous he'd leave me if he
knew. I can't risk that. I've got love and I've got security. Things I've never
had before. Well, if you've got all that, what do
you want the boy for? He's my son. Mine, too.
But what do you do with him? You don't give him any love. You keep him in a
boarding school. [music]
All right. All right. [music]
You can have them. See, I'm not as heartless as you think I am. [music] I
wrote a letter to the school telling them to send them to you at midterm. I
said you were the um sister of my dead wife. [music]
Things haven't changed for us, have they? Everything's exactly [music]
everything. You touch me again, I'll kill you.
I think you would at that. All right. This is what you came for
here. Take it and get out. [music]
[music] The primary stages of culture B have
started with the same degree of inactivity
which with additional protein induction should begin to accelerate.
I'm going. However, the
[music] Goodbye. I'm sorry I hit you.
It doesn't matter. Goodbye. [music]
[music] However, [music]
however, [music]
[music] [music]
This is for forgetting you ever saw me. [music]
So are who? I'm all by myself. Thanks.
2 a.m. Let's call it a night. Yes, sir.
Hand speaking. Who is it? Speak up.
This place must be completely destroyed. Burn every stick of it.
Burn it to the ground. [music]
[music] [music]
Fire. [music]

Joe Palmer. [music]
Joe, [music] he's got to get that tape. Wait, wait.

Heat. Heat. [music]
[music] [music]
[music] [music]
[music] Heat. Heat.
[music] [music]
Heat. Heat. In this first outbreak of blood rust,
even the jeep used by Ratigan and Hand was destroyed
because of the potential importance of Dr. Palmer's tape recording. [music] It
was thoroughly decontaminated by immersion and fumigation.
Hand and Ratigan themselves went through a most rigorous decontamination routine.
complete immersion in phenol solution [music] followed by a thorough scrubbing
according to surgical procedures. By the time Hand and Ratigan completed their
decontamination, a vast concerted effort was underway to prevent any spread of
the blood rust. The army, the FBI, and the New Mexico State Police
sent representatives to confer with John Hand. We carried out total
decontamination for 50 yards in every direction from the place where 712 was
recovered. Good. We didn't depend on the fire that
destroyed Dr. [music] at Palmer's Lavatory. We completed a decontamination
there, too. Then we may be all right, providing
Palmer had no human contacts. Did you check on him?
Well, he lived an isolated area. As far as we could tell, he had not.
I hope not. One human contact, one unwitting person who spreads this thing
[music] can carry contagion all over the country, all over the world. Can't we
put out an alarm, make an appeal to anyone who?
No. Panic is the danger. Can you imagine [music] the hysteria
news of this thing would create? The tape is ready, sir. Go ahead, Ratigan.
Because of its color, I call this organism blood rust.
2:32 p.m. Wednesday, 12th, feeding cultures again. This is the 20th time
since their incubation. As the specimens grow, their need for
nourishment also increases. The specimens tolerate only protein in their
diet. They might be called carnivorous in fact.
Not to talk to me. I can't stay here much longer.
I told you not to bother me. Why are you doing this? Why can't you be
more human? Will you please get out and leave me
alone? Turn it back to the woman's voice. Yes,
sir. They're diet. They might be called
carnivorous. In fact, you got to talk to me. I can't stay here
much longer. I told you not to bother me.
Why are you doing this? Why can't you be more human? Will you please get out and
leave me alone? I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER. NO,
she was there the afternoon of the 12th. We broke into his house that night. She
might have been there for several hours. I have an idea. She was there a lot
longer than that, sir. The night I drove Dr. Palmer home was the 11th. As we
drove up, I I asked the doctor if I could see his lab. He said, "Sure, come
on in." And he noticed something in the house. I uh he changed his mind. He gave
me a quick brush off just like that. Obviously, he knew her well.
Palmer never had anything to do with women. No time for it. this once he
found time. Colonel, may I suggest you release the
story to the press that Palmer's death was accidental. I agree with you that
panic is the real danger. But we must make every effort to find that woman.
It was a discouraging search. John Hand had only two bits of information to go
on. The woman's voice told him she was young, and the remote location of Dr.
Palmer's house made it probable that she had gone to it by taxi cab.
Your name Ringer? Yeah.
You were on duty yesterday? Yeah, that's right.
Do you know Dr. Palmer's house out in Los Cusus Road?
Nope. Did you pick up a fair a young woman
somewhere out in that direction? No, sir. You better be pretty sure about
that, Mr. Ringer. We're trying to round up everyone who came in contact with
that woman for emergency treatment. I'm sure.
Hey, mister. Wait a minute. What's the matter with the tame?
Just tell us where you picked her up. Atomic radiation, huh? Something like
that. Where'd you pick her up?
It couldn't hurt a guy sitting up front, could it?
It could kill you. Kill me? You mean it? All right. So, I
picked her up out at that place on Las Cusus Road. She gave me 20 bucks to keep
my mouth shut. Where'd you take her?
To the station. She caught the El Camino westbound. Checked her suitcase through
to LA. LA?
I'm afraid you'll have to come with us, Mr.
Reinger? Wait a minute. Where, too?
Decontamination? Decontamination?
John Han gave orders to keep everyone away from Reinger's cab [music] until it
could be taken away and burned. On the way to decontamination, Hans got
a complete description of the woman and her luggage from the frightened [music]
camp driver. Using the two-way radio in the jeep, Hand requested the army to
provide a jet bomber to take him and Ratigan to Los Angeles. [music]
The jet hand requested was warmed up and waiting. When Ham and Ratigan reached
the airport, they took off for Los Angeles at almost the same moment that
Laura Greing's train was arriving there. Your attention, please. Will passengers
arriving on the old Camino train number 21 kindly conduct their baggage check as
the baggage count. When she went to the baggage counter to
claim her baggage, she was told by the clerk she would have to wait a few
moments. Miriam,
kindly come to the station's office. Miriam,
please come to the station's office. [music]
[music] That was when Laura Geling started
running in blind panic. She thought she was being sought for questioning in a
murder case. She was supposed to be in Honolulu waiting for her husband to come
home. Instead, she was 2,000 mi away and liable to be involved in the scandal at
any moment. Operator, I'd like to make a collect
call to Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, 14117.
Your name and number, please. Uh, this is Mrs. Greing. Uh, Lorraine
69418. Thank you.
I have a collect call for Mrs. Ging. Will you accept the charges?
Yes. Hello.
Jodie, this is Laura. Laura, where are you?
Los Angeles. Has Bill come home yet? No, he phoned yesterday afternoon for
Maui. He said he'd be home Sunday.
Sunday? I've got to get a plane out of here
tonight. If I can't, I'll call you. Don't worry. I'm staying close if he
calls again. Thanks, honey. Bye.
Bye. Heat.

143 North Gardener code 2. This is a repeat of an earlier APB. All
units are asked to be on the lookout for a young woman. She is described as 5'4
in tall, blue eyes, blonde hair, about 27 years of age. When last seen, she was
wearing a brown suede coat. [music] [music]
A Los Angeles Police Department helicopter brought Hand and Ratigan to
an isolated sidetrack in the Los Angeles freight yards just 70 minutes after Lara
Greing's train pulled in. Mr. Han,
I'm Deputy Chief Ryder, the man you were talking to from the jet.
How do you do? Any luck finding the woman?
Nobody answering her description showed up at the baggage counter. We've gotten
all points bulletin out on her. Everything all set?
All ready for you? Fine.
Mr. Hand. Battalion Chief Henry. Nice to know you.
Hi, Mr. Ratigan. How are you, sir?
Who gets his suit? I do.
Are you sure you don't want one of our men to go?
No. Ratigan knows exactly what to look for.
Okay, let's dress it. Give me a hand. We've set up emergency decontamination
facilities in that shed over there. When did the conductor first noticed the
blood rust in the back car? About 3:00 a.m. in the Mojave Desert
just outside Barst. Good thing he had sense enough to lock
the door and stay out. The Expressman's still in there. What's left
of him? Good luck, Joe.
Cab driver had described the woman's suitcase in
detail. It was of distinctive lightweight material, further identified
by Japanese steamship stickers, and was confident the suitcase would provide
information of value to him. [music]
[music] Oh,
[music] I got
He's not out in 3 minutes. We'll send somebody in after him.
[music] [music]
[music] Send them in.
Go ahead. Heat. Heat.
Hold on. All through with the baggage car. All
through. Okay, burn it.
[screaming] The suitcase was immersed in a powerful
antiseptic solution until its contents were thoroughly saturated. Then it was
opened in the hope of finding clues to the missing woman's identity.
Size 10 dress from Marshall Fields in Chicago.
[panting] jacket from Monnique of Paris.
Slacks from the Aloa shop in Honolulu.
Well, we started out with just a voice and we get a pretty fair description.
Now we know she wears size 10 dress and buys her clothes all the way from Paris
to Honolulu. That really narrows it down, huh? Hey,
France Orient Airways, Flight 70. Check it.
Yes, sir. Get me Transor Orientan Airways
operations. Uh,
I'd like some information on flight number 70. Destination.
Thank you. I see. Thank you.
Flight number 70 is a Honolulu to Los Angeles run. It arrives Tuesdays,
Thursdays, and Saturdays at 9:00 p.m. That cabbie Retager, they flew him in
for us. They're taking him directly to identification.
The cab driver, Rettinger, was brought to Los Angeles by the fastest means
available as the only person known to have seen the missing woman. His help
was of the utmost importance. I'm sorry we had to rush you, but you're
the only one that can help us identify this woman.
I told you before. So high. Big blue eyes, nice figure.
Yes. Yes. Uh uh Mr. Harris, Mr. Hi. Uh, would you sit there, please?
Thanks. Come along. Now,
this girl was a doer. This was the general shape of the face.
Oh, that looks too much like a price fighter. She had a nice chin, you know.
How about this? No. Too square. Square.
Little more on the rounded.
Yeah. No, no, no. That's more like it. I like it.
How about the hair? Her hair?
Yeah. She had nice hair. Looks like she just stepped out of a beauty parlor. Let
me see this. Put that on her. Yeah, that's nice.
No. What about her mouth?
Well, give her a kind of a pretty one. One with a smile on it.
Mhm. Very nice. And she got pretty teeth,
too. How about this?
No, no, no. You got something that shows the teeth?
Yeah. Yeah, that's nice. Okay. How about the
eyes? Nice big blue eyes. You know, she had
those black lashes around. How about that?
No, too sleepy. [clears throat] Let me see what you got there.
How about this? Yeah, that's nice. That's nice. Now, and
she had eyebrows that you know like they those they pull out with pliers, you
know, those little bushes, huh?
Yeah. No, no, that that now you're getting there. Let me see. There's
something missing. She did have a nose, didn't she?
Oh, yeah. Nose. Little pugnose. Kind of cute.
Any of these? Let me see.
Yeah, this. Let's try this one here. No. No. That isn't it? How about this
one? Yeah. Yeah, try that.
Hey, now you got it. It's getting better all the time. If I
had a name and address, we'd be old friends. Is there anything you want to
add or change to this? No, that's as close as I can get to it.
Get this picture out as fast as you can. Hey, what happens to me now?
He'll take care of you. [music]

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome aboard Transorient Airways
Flight 12 to Honolulu. Your captain is Mr. Vakarino, first officer Mr. Jared,
navigator Mr. Fraser, and engineer Mr. Dale. Your stewardesses are Miss
Bonestelle, and myself, Miss Archer. Estimated time of arrival in Honolulu at
6:45 a.m. We are now flying at 18,000 ft. We will maintain this altitude
throughout most of this flight. Thank you,
Miss Archer. Who's the young lady in seat 3C? [music]
Uh, Miss Jean Meyers. How about the brunette across the aisle
from her? Mrs. Laura Gley.
Are there any other good-looking brunettes on this flight wearing tweet
coats? One more right over there.
Would it be possible to clear the lounge? I uh I'd like to talk to these
young ladies one by one if it's necessary.
Yeah, it's necessary. Very well.
[screaming] John Han made an immediate effort to get
in touch with Ratigan through the radio facilities of the airport control tower.
He was not able to establish contact, however, until flight 12 was well out
over the Pacific. Get me Transorient 12, please.
Transorient 12, this is Los Angeles Center. Over.
Los Angeles center. This is Transorient 12. Go ahead.
Okay. Transorient 12. We have a Mr. Hand from the Office of Internal Security
here. He has an urgent message for one of his agents, a passenger named
Ratigan. Roger. We'll get him. Stand by.
This is the entire passenger list. [music]
Mr. Ratigan may want you at 4, please. Thank you. Excuse me.
Los Angeles center, this is Transorient 12. We have passenger rat again for you.
Stand by. Press to talk. Ratigan speaking.
Ratigan, is she aboard? I don't know. I'm just going to take a
look. If you haven't found out yet, what are
you doing on that plane? Following two or three good-looking
brunettes wearing tweed coats. That's what you said she was wearing. What else
is she wearing? I haven't found out yet.
Check the women as fast as you can and report back, will you?
Right. Los Angeles center orient out. What's
this all about, Mr. Ratigan. Well, Captain, you know what a typhoid
Mary is? A carrier of contagion? Yeah.
That good-looking grenette you just heard me talking about might be a
thousand typoid Marys rolled up in one. Oh, fine.
What happens if you find her? We'll turn back. [music]
Turn back? Well, mister, you haven't got all night to find her. Long about 3:00
a.m. We'll be too far out to turn back. [music]
[music] Dad,
Mr. Ratigan will explain. Miss Meyers. [music]
Miss Meyers, I'm looking for [music] a girl. It's vital that I find her. The
lives of everyone on this plane may depend on it.
[music] The next girl, please.
That would be Mrs. Laura Green. Thank you.
Yes, Mrs. Wheeling.
Yes. My name is Ratigan.
I'd uh like to ask you a few questions. Of course.
Do you have some means of identification?
My ticket with my name on it? Thank you. Do you uh live in Honolulu?
Yes. Do you have a driver's license?
Yes, but not with me. Where did you go on your trip?
Los Angeles in Van Ice, California. I have relatives in Van Ice. May I see the
label in your coat? Yes.
Where did you buy this coat? Beverly Hills. It helps.
Thank you. You've been very cooperative. By the way, you have lovely hair.
Thank you. I must admit I do touch it up a bit. [music]
Would you go in now, please? Oh no, sweetheart. Not now.
Why not? My name is Ratigan. Your name, please?
Elaine Froman. Could you show me some sort of
identification? I could, but why should I?
Would you look at this card again, please?
Office of Internal Security. This involves the security of our
country. Now, I'd like to see some identification.
Of course. driver's license,
credit card, and credentials for my company. I'm a buyer for Lang in New
York. Where's your coat?
The steers has it. I'd like to see it.
My coat, please. How much long does the point of no
return? Less than an hour. Give him a call.
Transorient 12, Los Angeles Center. You uh [music] bought this coat in New
York, Miss Roman. I got it in New York. I'm a buyer, Mr.
Ratigan. A buyer never buys anything for itself.
Mr. Ratigan, to the flight deck, please. Um,
excuse me. [music]
This is Ratigan. Ratigan, they tell me you're less than
40 minutes from the point of no return. What have you found out?
Two of the women check out. The third one calls herself Gene Myers. I'll go to
work on her. Get busy, will you? You don't have much
time. Yes, sir. [music]
Would you mind?
Oh, sir. Okay.
[music] You say your name is Gene Meyers. Can
you prove it? Of course. I have a driver's license and
some traveler's checks. Well, I I I must [music] have left them
in my other purse. And where is your other purse?
I I packed it in my suitcase. I can certainly identify myself as soon
as we get to Honolulu. Well, do I have to find out now?
Find out what, Miss Meyers, there is a species of
fungus that threatens the earth today. It's discoverer, Dr. Palmer called it
blood rust. I've seen the blood rust. It killed the man who discovered it. I
saw what was left of it. The woman I am looking for may be a carrier of this
stuff. She was the woman who was with Palmer the day before he was killed.
Now, are you that woman? No, I swear I'm not.
All right, give me your baggage check. I'll have to get your suitcase.
If your story about the other purse isn't true, you might as well tell me
now. It is true.
I've got to get into the baggage compartment.
You'll have to go through the emergency hatch. Tim, take them back. [music]
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to disturb you. Will you please move
forward? I need this area clear. Find an empty seat.
[music] What does that man want? Why does he
keep bothering us? He says there's some horrible stuff called blood rust, that
it could destroy the Earth if it ever got started. And he thinks one of us
might be a carrier. He says this blood rust killed the man who discovered it.
[music] I'm the woman you're looking for.
[music] I was with Dr. Palmer. Tell the captain to turn back. Get
whatever orders you need, but get the ship turned around.
[music] [music]
Hey, we're turning around. There's no emergency. It's just a
precaution. Again, reporting flight tag. [music]
Button it up. [music]
This is Ratigan speaking. [music] You found her?
Yeah, I found her. All right. I found blood rust, too. The baggage
compartment's crawling with it. Try to keep the stuff confined to the
baggage compartment. Is the captain listening in?
Affirmative. Captain here. Captain, I'm going to have to get you
down as quickly as possible. Well, Santa Barbara's our first
landfall. How about Santa Barbara Airport?
No, they don't have the facilities I [music] need. Make it to Oxnard Air
Force Base. Oxnard Air Force Base. [music]
Aren't you afraid to come near me? No.
I've been in contact with the blood rest, too. Mrs. Gley,
why did you run? [music] When I saw the story about Dr. Palmer
dying in a fire, I thought that's why they wanted me.
I couldn't get involved in a scandal. You see, I've got a husband I love very
much. This isn't a police matter, Mrs. Really.
All Mr. Han wants to do is destroy the blood rest. He's not interested in
exposing your [music] past. He'll probably never even use your name.
I hope you're right. I'm [music] sure.
Thanks. Orient
[music] 12. This is Los Angeles center. Over.
Orient 12. Go ahead. When will you make Oxnard Air Force
Base? Stand by, please. Orient 12, estimating Oxnard Air Force
Base. 0540. 5:40 a.m. There'll be just enough
daylight for us to see what we're doing. [music]

ship. [music]

emergency. We've lost cabin pressure.
Got to get down fast. This stuff must have forced open the outside baggage
door. [music]
[screaming] [screaming]
[music] Flight 12 is at hand. Where are you?
Approaching the coastline. Estimate 10 minutes to Oxnard.
Bring her in as close to the emergency units as you can. We'll do. [music]
We can't get our landing gear down. Rud rust must have damaged the hydraulic
system. We'll have to make it a belly landing.
