CABIN PRESSURETIMED DIALOGUE LIST

PAGE 1

01:00:31:09 REECE: You'd better get going.

01:00:33:05 JIMMY: What, no good-luck kiss for the Captain, Captain? I'm about tomake history here.

01:00:39:00

01:00:48:13 JIMMY: I know you want to, Reece.

01:00:50:04 REECE: No, I know you want to. I just think we'd last longer as friends,Jimmy.

01:00:56:23 JIMMY: So at least you're not saying no way, then.

01:00:59:25 REECE: Just like a kid, aren't you? I was taken maybe straight to thebank. You're starting to remind me a little of someone I used to know.

01:01:10:05 JIMMY: That's not a bad thing, is it?

01:01:13:14 REECE: I'm not sure.

01:01:43:23 CORBETT: I think we deserve a pat on the back, don't you?01:01:48:00

01:01:50:02 NED: Hey, check it out.

01:01:55:09 CORBETT: Corbett Aviation and the first 100% automatic-pilot f light inhistory. A job well done, everyone. Thank you all so much.

01:02:07:00

01:02:15:26 NICK: Drink up, Tammy. Hey, come on, Gabriel. Drink up, man. Youdeserve it.

01:02:25:00

01:02:40:08 JIMMY: Genisys, do your thing.

01:02:43:13 TAMMY: Okay, we have takeoff sequence. Do you copy, Seattle Tower?

01:02:46:17 SEATTLE TOWER: We copy, Genisys Center.

01:03:03:29 JIMMY: So did you bring anything to read?

01:03:05:29 PARKS: Yeah, really. If this thing works, we may be out of jobs. Checklist up. Levels are good. All systems functioning. And airborne.

01:03:52:15 CORBETT: I did it. "F"ing-A, I did it.

01:03:55:28 REECE: Well done, Mr. Corbett.

01:03:57:02 CORBETT: Thanks to you.

01:03:58:07 ALAN: Congratulations, Sir.

01:04:05:28 JIMMY: Wow, this is as good as simulation. I'm passenger and pilot onthe same flight.

01:04:11:00

01:04:13:09 PARKS: Jimmy, look at the systems.

01:04:17:24 JIMMY: What the hell? Center, we appear to have a situation here.

01:04:24:19 GABRIEL: What is it? What's happening?

01:04:26:02 JIMMY: I'm not sure. System failure. It's all shut down on us here, guys.

01:04:30:14 GABRIEL: What? That's impossible. Disengage from the computer.

01:04:33:17 JIMMY: I already have.

01:04:34:28 GABRIEL: Smythe, go to a soft reboot. Alan, as soon as we're back on,restore mains. Tammy, keep trying the backup systems. I'll try andmanual override.

01:04:42:00

01:04:46:00 PARKS: It's no good, Jimmy. Nothing works. We have no control.

01:04:49:23 JIMMY: Jesus. We're going down. We're going down hard.

01:04:55:21 ALAN: Altitude decreasing.

01:05:01:09 JIMMY: We're going down.

01:05:03:02 TAMMY: Genisys, come in.

01:05:05:04 PARKS: No control. Nothing works.

01:05:07:22 JIMMY: We're going down.

01:06:13:05 CORBETT: Goddamn you, Wingfield. How could this happen? You saidwe were ready.

01:06:16:29 GABRIEL: We were. Look, Mr. Corbett, it's too early to start speculating,but actually caused the crashes--

01:06:21:19 CORBETT: This was a computer-controlled aircraft. What else could itbe, pilot error? You heard those guys up there. They had no idea whatwas happening. They had no control.

01:06:31:09 GABRIEL: Oh, I get it now. I'm the invisible man around here t illsomething goes wrong?

01:06:35:00 CORBETT: Stop being paranoid. In case you've forgotten, two peoplejust died.

01:06:39:09 GABRIEL: Yeah, well, maybe you've forgotten. I designed this system,but you owned it and you signed off on it. Mr. "F"ing-A, "I did it."

01:06:47:01 CORBETT: Get out of here. You're fired.

01:06:49:08 GABRIEL: You can't do that. I have a contract.

01:06:50:24 CORBETT: And I just bought you out, and you'll be lucky if I don't sueyou for 50 times that amount by the time the dust has settled.

01:11:27:01 PETE: Yeah. Well, this and that, you know?

01:11:31:12 NED: So what's in the boxes?

01:11:33:08 PETE: Boxes? Oh, well...

01:11:43:00 SECURITY GUARD: Whoa. That's loud.

01:11:45:06 PETE: Sweet, huh? Here you go.

01:11:47:18 NED: How'd you get in here? This place is locked up pretty tight.

01:11:50:18 PETE: Well, it's not that tight. The door was open.

01:11:55:03 NED: I told you your ass was grass if you ever forgot to secure one ofthese doors again.

01:11:59:13 SECURITY GUARD: I didn't, Ned. I mean, I don't--

01:12:02:16 NED: Shut up already. What the hell does my sister see in you, anyway?

01:12:06:27 PETE: You see, the thing is, Ned--

01:12:09:26 NED: Pal, I don't want to piss in your pageant, but if you think you'reactually going to sell one of these shirts, I mean...

01:12:16:18 PETE: No, I'm not selling these things. These are, you know, giveaways.They're promos for my new customers. Now, check this out-- Sun andSand Charters Incorporated, okay? The Pacific Northwest's first discountdiscount holiday travel service.

01:12:32:03 NED: No kidding?

01:12:33:01 PETE: Yeah.

01:12:33:15 NED: A charter company? Bird Dog? Well, you're still flying, then?

01:12:37:20 PETE: Well, no. I haven't actually, you know, flown in about two years.The FAA didn't have much of a sense of humor when I told them that Iflew straighter drunk than sober.

01:12:46:20 NED: No, they wouldn't.

01:12:48:04 PETE: No, but anyway, I'm working on that one. Meanwhile, okay, I'vegot a business partner who's got the money, and I've got a line on alease on a 737, okay, so what I'm saying, is all I need right now is a dry

place to keep these stupid shirts until I can get the key to my office fromthe terminal.

01:13:05:05 NED: Well, I don't know, Bird Dog. This is a private hangar. Ty Corbett'sa real hard-ass.

01:13:10:28 PETE: I'm coming from way down, all right, both personally andprofessionally, but I'm on my way back up.

01:13:16:04 NED: All right, fine. A day or two tops, okay?

01:13:19:10 PETE: Hey, you got it. That's Ned. I love you, man. You're beautiful.

01:13:23:01 NED: Okay, well, let's...let's get this stuff stowed.

01:13:25:08 PETE: All right. You're a good man, Ned.

01:13:29:08 NED: You don't have a problem with me helping out an old Air Forcebuddy, do you?

01:13:32:10 SECURITY GUARD: No. Don't suppose you'd have this in extra large,would you?

01:13:36:23 PETE: Hey... for you... for you I've got a triple X.

01:13:43:10 SECURITY GUARD: Woo.

01:13:46:20 NED: Unbelievable, man. You look good.

01:13:50:00 PETE: You too, bud. Hey, listen...

01:13:56:00

01:14:25:15 CORBETT: I'm very happy to see everybody here this afternoon, no onemore than my board of directors. Thank you for your faith. Six monthsago, there was a lot of people in the media and the aerospace industryitself here in Seattle who thought I was finished, who thought thatCorbett Aviation would not take to the skies again. Well, to all of them,or you, as the case may be, the Genisys II. They say that every failurebrings with it a valuable lesson to those that are willing to learn. Well, avaluable lesson I learned after the tragic crash of Genisys I lastSeptember's this, don't quit. The Wright brothers knew that over acentury ago. They didn't quit when their first prototype refused to takeflight. NASA didn't quit after the Challenger disaster in 1986, and I couldgo on, but the point is every major advance in the history of aviation hasbeen made by the bold, not the faint-hearted.

01:15:34:01 PETE: Self-important windbag.

01:15:37:22 CORBETT: And now, for those who haven't had the pleasure, I'd like totake this opportunity to introduce you to my very lovely daughterBrandee. Brandee, would you and my future grandson please stand up?

And the man who made an honest woman out of Brandee is my son-in-law David Caulfield. David. David Caulfield is not only one of the hottesttrial attorneys on the west coast, he also happens to be the son of mygood friend Senator John Caulfield.

01:16:13:05 PETE: Is that the same Senator Caulf ield that's behind the big push in

Congress to triple federal funding for the private aerospace RNDs?

01:16:20:12 TV REPORTER: Well, Corbett's no dummy.

01:16:22:23 CORBETT: The software we've developed after the last year's tragedy,now gives Corbett Aviation a fail-safe fully computer-integrated aircraft-control system, the first in the world, I might add. I've very pleased andexcited to tell you that 18 hours from now, this very important trio behindme will be joining me onboard Genisys II for her maiden flight betweenSeattle and Los Angeles. And last but not least, I know you all want to

meet the pilot for tomorrow's historic flight, Captain Reece Robinson.Reece. They're all yours.

01:17:14:00

01:17:16:06 REECE: Well, I wouldn't say I know as much as the technicians whodesigned our computer systems, but I'll do my very best to answer anyof your questions.

01:17:23:02 TV REPORTER: How does it work?

01:17:24:16 REECE: Terrif ic. I've tested this aircraft extensively, and we're ready.

01:17:29:10 TV REPORTER: No, I mean how does it work?

01:17:31:15 REECE: Well, basically, we utilized 320 cross-functional build teamsthat in turn accessed 2,200 terminals and three-dimensional interactive-application cadia systems to produce what we like to call pure perfectionin flight.

01:17:47:03 CORBETT: I told you.

01:17:50:17 REECE: Maybe I can put things a litt le more simply. The Genisys II is ajet aircraft that takes off, lands, and flies itself.

01:18:02:08 PETE: I have one. How can you consider you consider yourself a realpilot when a microchip or whatever runs the cockpit?

01:18:11:00

01:18:13:15 REECE: Believe me, I have years of first-class flight training behind meand I definitely am a real pilot.

01:18:20:00

01:18:23:05 CORBETT: Well said, Captain. This is the 21st century here, fr iend. Areal pilot is someone who can adapt proven flying skills with the newtechnologies available to them. A pilot who cannot or will not adapt tonew technologies is not a real pilot, just an obsolete one. Well, it lookslike we're just about wrapped up here. If you want to take anyphotographs, please feel free to come on up, and when you're ready, I'llbe happy to give you all a tour of the cockpit. Thank you.

01:19:02:00

01:19:12:12 CORBETT: Who is the asshole in the flight jacket? Do you know?

01:19:16:09 NED: Nope.

01:19:59:11 GABRIEL: Peep!01:19:59:25

01:20:01:08 No, no, no, no. Wait, wait, wait.01:20:02:13

01:20:05:06 Would you like some candy, little girl?01:20:06:12

01:20:18:02 You're welcome.01:20:18:26

01:23:18:00 You miss me a little bit?01:23:19:14

01:24:42:00 REECE: What are you doing here, Peter...

01:24:46:12 in Seattle, I mean?

01:24:49:24 PETE: Just trying to get my life back together. I stopped drinking.

01:24:54:02 REECE: Really?

01:24:54:24 PETE: Mm-hmm.

01:24:55:16 REECE: When?

01:24:57:08 PETE: Weeks ago. Well, two weeks ago.

01:25:00:28 REECE: And how is it?01:25:03:01

01:25:05:13 PETE: It's really hard sometimes. Hey, you'll appreciate this. I've beenworking on getting this business together, charter flights to the HawaiianIslands. Cool, huh?

01:25:18:05 REECE: Does that mean you've got your license back?

01:25:20:19 PETE: Well, not yet, but, uh...

01:25:23:27 REECE: Have you even talked to the FAA about it?01:25:26:08

01:25:31:09 I wish you all the luck in the world on this, Peter. I really do.

01:25:36:28 PETE: You know, I'm planning on talking to the FAA really soon.

01:25:40:01 REECE: Yeah.

01:25:40:22 PETE: Mm-hmm. Hey, you know, I thought maybe we'd go out and havesome dinner. You know, like have a real talk.

01:25:49:16

01:25:56:23 REECE: I'm tired.01:25:57:21

01:26:00:08 PETE: Well, okay, then we can order something in, maybe somethingwith a little spice, get the sparks going again.

01:26:10:08 REECE: Sparks were never our problem.

01:26:12:14 PETE: You can say that again.01:26:13:19

01:26:16:01 REECE: Peter, it's over. I can't go back there. I've moved on.01:26:20:00

01:26:25:15 PETE: Well, you can't blame a guy for trying to get a second chance ata really good thing.

01:26:35:06 REECE: I've a f light plan that I've got to write up and file tomorrow. I'mgoing to take a shower, okay?

01:26:42:10 PETE: Okay.01:26:43:12

01:27:29:07 NED: Hardaway here.

01:27:31:15 PETE: Hey, Ned, it's Bird Dog.

01:27:32:29 NED: That was quite the performance out at the airport this afternoon.What the hell were you doing?

01:27:37:18 PETE: I don't know. I guess I was just having a litt le bit of fun. So Ned--

01:27:41:21 NED: What?

01:27:42:23 PETE: I could use a friendly ear tonight, and it might end up being a

bartender's in the space I'm in right now.

01:27:50:18 NED: Where are you?

01:27:52:01 PETE: I'm in a parking lot next to trouble.01:27:55:01

01:27:57:10 NED: All right, look, I'll give you an address. Number 27, 1652 Oakmont.Can you meet me there in half an hour?

01:28:04:18 PETE: Okay. See you there.01:28:06:02

01:28:17:24 NED: Everyone got a chair?01:28:19:12

01:28:22:23 Okay, why don't we get started?

01:28:25:16 Welcome, everyone. Um...01:28:27:10

01:28:32:28 Have a seat.01:28:34:00

01:28:37:12 Let's open with our serenity prayer.01:28:39:29

01:28:45:00 GROUP: God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannotchange, courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know thedifference. Amen.

01:28:56:19 NED: So I see we have a visitor or two with us tonight. Welcome.01:29:00:11

01:30:52:00 GABRIEL: "And Caesar's spirit ranging for revenge with Ate by his side,come hot from hell, shall in these confines with a monarch's voice cryhavoc and let slip the dogs of war."

01:31:27:03 GABRIEL: Let me guess, you forgot your tools?

01:31:29:07 CABLE GUY: Not exactly.01:31:30:17

01:31:37:06 How do I put this? See, a hacker always recognizes another hacker.

01:31:42:08 GABRIEL: A hacker?

01:31:44:23 CABLE GUY: I don't know what or who you're scamming, but I know it'sbig time.

01:31:48:22 GABRIEL: You think so?

01:31:50:00 CABLE GUY: Yeah, definitely.

01:31:52:18 GABRIEL: I see, and?

01:31:53:26 CABLE GUY: Not to brag or anything, but I'm pretty good myself. Maybewe could talk about teaming up.01:31:58:23

01:32:02:08 GABRIEL: Hmm. That's interesting. Tell me something. Aren't yousupposed to still be at work?

01:32:07:06 CABLE GUY: Nah. I punched out an hour ago. Mind?

01:32:12:03 GABRIEL: No, no, no, no. Go right ahead. Yeah.01:32:13:15

01:32:26:19 Would you like beer?

01:32:27:24 CABLE GUY: Beer would be great.01:32:29:10

01:32:36:07 Holy shit. You are a heavyweight.01:32:40:15

01:32:42:12 GABRIEL: Thank you. I'm flattered.01:32:45:16

01:34:22:08 GABRIEL: Is this for me?01:34:23:07

01:34:30:04 It's lovely.

01:34:31:02

01:34:35:18 Would you like to come in?

01:34:36:26 BLAIR: Okay.01:34:38:16

01:35:14:04 CORBETT: How's the weather in LA?

01:35:15:13 REECE: Clear and sunny with a high of 70, Mr. Corbett.

01:35:17:20 CORBETT: We'll have lunch at the beach.

01:35:19:23 REECE: Sounds like a plan. Hi. How are you feeling?

01:35:22:06 BRANDEE: Well, I'm holding up.

01:35:24:07 DAVID: Oh, we're doing just fine.

01:35:24:23 REECE: Great.

01:35:25:15 BRANDEE: Oh, we are, are we?

01:35:27:20 REECE: Good morning, Senator Caulfield.

01:35:29:09 JOHN: Good morning, Captain.

12:35:30:10

01:35:46:20 Very nice, Ty. I think I'd take this over Air Force One any day.

01:35:50:14 CORBETT: Well, the President has a slightly nicer home than I do.Slightly.

01:35:58:10

01:36:07:17 REECE: Well, Peter, if you could see me now.01:36:09:11

01:36:32:17 CORBETT: Well, how do you like her so far?

01:36:35:02 REECE: I like her just fine.01:36:37:02

01:37:01:24 GABRIEL: What are you doing?

01:37:03:05 BLAIR: I have to go to the bathroom.01:37:05:15

01:37:09:04 GABRIEL: It's that door.01:37:10:19

01:37:24:29 REECE: Okay, we're linked. Uploading.01:37:27:23

01:37:46:23 GABRIEL: Do you like my computer game?

01:37:48:10 BLAIR: Can I play?01:37:49:10

01:37:51:23 GABRIEL: Maybe later. In fact, I think you better go home now. Yourmother might be worried. I mean it. Go on.

01:41:56:18 CORBETT: David?

01:41:57:15 DAVID: It's a little early in the day for me, but thank you.

01:42:00:13 CORBETT: Nothing for you, I know.

01:42:02:10 BRANDEE: I'll go make us some coffee.

01:42:04:01 DAVID: Oh, no, sweetheart, you relax. I'll make the coffee.

01:42:06:26 BRANDEE: Okay.

01:42:08:04 DAVID: That is assuming it's something like the machine in our kitchen.01:42:10:29

01:42:21:08 GABRIEL: That's it. Everybody relax and get comfy. The fun is about tobegin.

01:42:26:00

01:42:30:19 Think I'll take over now, Captain. Thank you very much.01:42:32:21

01:42:34:26 Seattle to LA, not today.01:42:38:13

01:42:41:15 Let's see. Where should we go instead then? I know, I know. How aboutnowhere...fast?

01:42:54:17

01:42:59:22 SEATTLE TOWER: Genisys II, this is Seattle Center. We show you in aleft turn.

01:43:03:09 REECE: Say that again, Seattle Center.

01:43:05:05 SEATTLE TOWER: Copy that, Genisys II. I said we show you in a leftturn. What's the matter, you forgot the way to LAX, Captain?

01:43:10:20 REECE: Confirm a turn. Flight and nav both say we're flying a straightheading. What the... Our route just disappeared. Now it's showing somecrazy holding pattern over Seattle.

01:43:23:23 SEATTLE TOWER: What's happening up there, Genisys II?

01:43:25:29 REECE: My question, too, Seattle Tower. Genisys Central, can you helpus out with this?

01:43:30:06 TAMMY: We're already on it, Reece. Must be some sort of malfunctionin the nav database.

01:43:33:20 REECE: Should I switch to manual?

01:43:35:11 TAMMY: No. Hang in there. We're going through your settings right now.

01:43:38:16 SEATTLE TOWER: Genisys II, Seatt le Center here. We're clearing yousome airspace at present altitude.

01:43:52:06 PETE: Yeah, Sun and Sand Charters. Hey, Chuck. Yeah. Hey, listen, Ijust ran across this quote for print ads in the Seattle Tribune. It says hereyou can get about a month of Sundays for a pretty decent...

01:44:05:16

01:44:08:01 Come again? Oh... Chuck, I thought we talked this all through, man.Yeah, I got a 737 and everything.

01:44:18:28

01:44:23:03 No, I understand it's your money. Yeah. You know what, never mind,okay. If I was a horse, I wouldn't bet on me, either. Yeah. I'll talk to youlater.

01:44:37:27

01:44:45:00 Oh, boy.01:44:46:03

01:44:50:07 CORBETT: John, I can't tell you how much I appreciate your support onthis federal R-and-D thing. Between the crash costs and all the capital

it's taken to redesign our software and get airborne again, it was prettytouch and go for awhile.

01:45:03:22 JOHN: Well, there's no guarantee in the lobbying business, Ty. Thoseguys on the hill are hard to figure out some days, but we're definitelygiving it the full-court press.

01:45:11:20 CORBETT: I know you are, John, and let me tell you, pushing themilitary potential on this technology was a stroke of genius on your part.Our stock price is finally starting to rebound.

01:45:22:19 JOHN: Yeah. Well, thank you for that. Obviously the possibility of apilotless war plane in the future should go over well with the mothers of

America.01:45:31:18

01:46:28:27 GABRIEL: How did you get in here?

01:46:30:03 BLAIR: The door was open.01:46:31:07

01:46:36:22 GABRIEL: It's all right. You just caught me by surprise, that's all.01:46:39:29

01:46:53:04 Do you like it?01:46:54:13

01:47:03:20 REECE: Genisys Central, this is Genisys II. Have you got that glitchfigured out yet?

01:47:07:13 TAMMY: That's a negative, Reece. Sorry.

01:47:11:02 REECE: Look, I know the poop's going to hit the prop, but I think I haveto bring Mr. Corbett into the picture now.

01:47:16:11 NED: She's right. Corbett's got to know what's going on... and I better letsomeone else know.

01:47:22:26 NICK: Sarah Caulfield's people in Washington?

01:47:24:27 NED: Yeah, them, too, I guess.01:47:26:28

01:47:46:04 PETE: Boop. You've reached Sun and Sand Charters. We are no longerin business, but--

01:47:51:04 NED: Bird Dog, it's Ned.

01:47:54:05 PETE: Hey, Ned, you're a little late.

01:47:55:11 NED: I have no idea what you're talking about, Dewmont, but you mightwant to haul your ass over to Genisys Control Center. It seems Reece'splane is in some kind of trouble here.

01:48:03:20 PETE: What? All right. I'll be right there.01:48:07:00

01:48:08:20 CORBETT: Are you telling me that none of that high-priced help downthere can tell me how a routine Seattle-LA flight plan that Reecedownloaded from her laptop has suddenly mutated into 45 minutes ofRing Around Seattle?

01:48:21:14 TAMMY: Mr. Corbett, I don't know what to say. It shouldn't behappening. Logically, it can't be happening.

01:48:26:29 CORBETT: Well, it is happening, isn't it? Idiot. God almighty. The bestand the brightest, huh? Are you getting anywhere on...

01:48:35:01

01:48:40:29 What?01:48:42:00

01:48:47:15 GABRIEL: You want to play?

01:48:49:02 BLAIR: Okay.01:48:50:02

01:48:52:04 GABRIEL: That's neat stuff, huh?01:48:53:05

01:49:01:14 Push that one all by yourself.01:49:03:06

01:49:04:29 CORBETT: I'm giving you 10 minutes to find this little problem and f ix it.

After that, we disengage from the computer and bring her down the old-fashioned way, and listen to me, I really hate being embarrassed inpublic, so let's all hope that we don't have to go there.

01:49:18:26 TAMMY: We hear you loud and clear, Mr. Corbett.

01:49:20:29 CORBETT: Good.

01:49:21:20 SEATTLE TOWER: Genisys, this is Seattle Center. Please check youraltitude. We have you descending into levels with other traffic.

01:49:26:07 REECE: We're supposed to be at 230.

01:49:29:01 CORBETT: What the hell is going on here?01:49:31:11

01:49:36:23 GABRIEL: Did I tell you I have a little girl, too? It's true. She can't bevery much older than you.

01:49:43:19 BLAIR: Where is she?01:49:44:25

01:49:48:06 GABRIEL: I'm not sure. Somewhere with her mother.01:49:53:07

01:49:55:19 MRS. ABBOTT: Blair!

01:49:57:17 GABRIEL: Better go. Hurry, hurry, hurry.

01:49:59:00 MRS. ABBOTT: Blair, are you downstairs?

01:50:02:01 GABRIEL: Go, go, go, go, go, go. Go.01:50:04:15

01:50:10:00 MRS. ABBOTT: Blair?

01:50:11:10 GABRIEL: It's our little secret, right?

01:50:12:23 MRS. ABBOTT: Blair, are you downstairs?

01:50:16:20 Blair?

01:50:17:14 BLAIR: Coming, Mom.01:50:18:15

01:50:36:00 TAMMY: Seattle Center, Genisys II is in an uncontrolled decent. Standby.

01:50:39:09

01:50:43:05 REECE: We can't wait for them to figure this out, Sir. We're not talkingembarrassment anymore, we're talking serious danger.

01:50:48:05 CORBETT: Goddamnit. Fine. Go to manual override. Take it back up.01:50:54:12

01:50:56:12 REECE: It's not working. I can't disengage from the computer. Seatt leCenter, Genisys II is declaring an emergency.

01:51:02:29

01:51:09:17 We seemed to have leveled off.01:51:11:08

01:51:13:18 PETE: Someone tell me what the hell's going on here.

01:51:14:25 NICK: Whoa, whoa, whoa. This is a restricted area.

01:51:16:03 NED: It's all right. He's Reece's ex. Don't panic yet. We have a

computer malfunction.

01:51:23:29 PETE: I think we were better off when pilots actually flew the planes.

01:51:27:24 NED: You been drinking?

01:51:29:10 PETE: I only had time for one.

01:51:31:14 NED: Should have brought the rest of the damn bott le with you. Couldhave used a double myself.

01:51:35:07 PETE: What do we got here?

01:51:36:11 NED: They just leveled off at 15,000.01:51:38:17

01:51:41:14 DAVID: You, uh...you turned the seat belt sign back on. Is everything allright?

01:51:44:29 REECE: Everything's just fine.

01:51:47:19 CORBETT: Just a bit of weather, Dave.

01:51:49:26 COMPUTER: Descend. Descend now.

01:51:52:04 CORBETT: That's our T-cast. What now?

01:51:53:18 SEATTLE TOWER: Genisys! Genisys II! Traff ic alert. You have traff icat 12:00.

01:51:57:24

01:51:59:25 CORBETT: Sweet Jesus.

01:52:01:03 REECE: I can't. I can't override anything in this damned airplane.

01:52:04:26 GABRIEL: Oh, no. We can't have that. No premature immolation here.01:52:07:00

01:52:17:17 BRANDEE: David!

01:52:18:25 JOHN: Here. Turn him over. That's it. Easy.01:52:22:25

01:52:26:11 BRANDEE: David.

01:52:29:05 CORBETT: You just saved our lives, Reece.

01:52:31:05 REECE: I didn't do that.

01:52:33:06 CORBETT: Then who did?

01:52:34:20 GABRIEL: I did it.01:52:35:20

01:52:38:17 JOHN: What's going on, Ty?

01:52:40:13 CORBETT: I don't know.

01:52:42:00 JOHN: David's been hurt. It's bad. We have to land and get him to ahospital. How much longer until we reach LA?

01:52:47:21 REECE: We're not going to LA. We're 15,000 feet over Seattle.

01:52:50:23 JOHN: What?01:52:52:10

01:52:56:28 SEATTLE TOWER: Genisys II, do you copy? Genisys II, over. GenisysCentral, this is Seattle Center. Are you still there at least?

01:53:05:24 TAMMY: We're still here, Seattle Center.

01:53:06:25 SEATTLE TOWER: We've got a Cessna reporting a near miss withGenisys II about four minutes ago. The radar shows them holding at15,000 feet, but we can't contact them.

01:53:14:16 TAMMY: Copy that, Seattle Center. We can't raise them, either.Something's blocking their com lines now.

01:53:18:26 NICK: Yeah, or someone. I'm picking up bits and pieces of an outsidetransmission to the plane.

01:53:24:10 NED: What frequency?

01:53:25:28 NICK: I don't know. I can't get a fix.

01:53:28:11 NED: Shove over. Let me in there.

01:53:30:00 TAMMY: What do you think you're doing, Hardaway?

01:53:31:00 PETE: It's okay. Just let him do his thing. He was the best com guy inthe Air Force in Kuwait.

01:53:35:15

01:53:38:11 TAMMY: Seattle Center, we're requesting protected air space forGenisys II at 15,000.

01:53:42:27 SEATTLE TOWER: Roger that, Genisys Center. Already done.01:53:44:26

01:54:15:00 NED: Gotcha.

01:54:16:08 GABRIEL: You don't think I would go to all the trouble of setting up thislittle performance just to call it off now because somebody's bumpedtheir noggin, do you? Come on.

01:54:22:20 PETE: Who the hell is that?

01:54:23:20 NED: It's the transmission to Genisys II. This guy has piggybacked an I-line onto our communication channels.

01:54:28:29 PETE: Who is he?

01:54:30:02 NED: No idea. Sounds like he's got a f ilter on his voice, anyway.

01:54:33:25 REECE: You can't keep us holding like this forever.

01:54:35:21 GABRIEL: Why not?

01:54:37:03 REECE: Well, for one thing--

01:54:37:24 PETE: That's Reece.

01:54:38:11 REECE: --we'll eventually run out of fuel.

01:54:40:05 GABRIEL: You are a clever girl, aren't you?

01:54:42:09 PETE: He's going to take them down.

01:54:44:02 NED: That's it . We need to start a triangulation search right now and seeif we can find this guy. I don't know how. He's on the ground. He's gotthem trapped up there.

01:54:53:10 CORBETT: Who are you? Why are you doing this?

01:54:57:25 GABRIEL: Wrack your brain, Corbett. Wrack your brain. Why do yousuppose anyone would want to do this to you, hmm?01:55:05:17

01:55:40:08 REECE: I can't say for sure, but I think he's got a fractured skull.

01:55:42:23 BRANDEE: Oh, my God.

01:55:45:10 REECE: The only thing we can do for him now is keep him completelystill and hope there's been no bleeding onto his brain.

01:55:52:05 GABRIEL: How touching. It's heartwrenching, really.

01:55:56:10 CORBETT: He can see us. The son of a bitch can see us in here.01:56:00:22

01:56:07:27 GABRIEL: Don't even think about it. You touch that camera or the one Iinstalled in the cockpit, it'll be the last think you ever do.

01:56:13:08 REECE: Who cares? You're going to kill us anyway.

01:56:15:05 GABRIEL: You saying you don't want to live as long as possible?

01:56:18:04 REECE: No. I'm saying screw you and your head games.

01:56:22:13 GABRIEL: One, two, three, four, f ive. I count f ive of you back there.Who's flying the plane, Captain Robinson?

01:56:30:24 REECE: You are, dickhead.

01:56:32:29 GABRIEL: You sure about that?01:56:34:16

01:56:56:10 NICK: 7,500. 7,000. 6,500. 6,000.

01:57:04:22 PETE: Hey, all right. You know, we can all see it for ourselves.01:57:06:26

01:57:32:27 GABRIEL: Golly, I guess I really am flying this plane. My mistake.01:57:37:13

01:57:49:27 JOHN: I can't take this, Ty. My son may be dying right in front of myeyes.

01:57:53:29 CORBETT: No, John. No one is dying on my airplane.01:57:57:17

01:58:20:18 NED: Oh, damnit.

01:58:22:05 NICK: What?

01:58:23:07 NED: We can't triangulate. He's got some sort of sophisticated digitalecho working for him.

01:58:28:04 PETE: What does that mean?

01:58:29:13 NED: It means that every word, every bit of code he's transmitting, is

being thrown up against a kind of cyber wall which scatters it to a mil liondifferent locations all at once. It's called splattering.

01:58:38:08 PETE: Splattering, huh? That's what I'd like to do to his brains.

01:58:41:21 NED: Yeah...and then by some system only he knows, it all bouncesback to Genisys II and reforms on their computer.

01:58:47:28 PETE: So it means he could be transmitting from anywhere.

01:58:50:15 NED: Anywhere in the goddamn planet.

01:58:52:05 TAMMY: We copy, Seattle Tower. Thanks for the update. Just talked toair-traffic control. Senator Caulfield's people in Washington have calledin the FBI. Their agents are all over the tower and air-control center now.

01:59:01:06 NED: Well, that's great. We sure as hell don't need the Bureau runningaround here right now.

01:59:04:29 TAMMY: I hear you. I'll see what I can do about holding them off.

01:59:07:16 PETE: So what do we do now?

01:59:09:07 NED: We cross our fingers and hope that these f ine folks can f igure outhow this guy got control of the plane and how we can cut him off.

01:59:17:10

01:59:20:12 BLAIR: All right, everyone, this is our little secret, okay?01:59:25:01

01:59:51:02 Ah!

02:00:33:03 GABRIEL: What's happened? What wrong with the little girl?

02:00:35:03 BYSTANDER: I don't know. Her mother said she just got sick all of asudden.

02:00:37:22

02:00:46:29 REECE: Hey, you. I have a question. Hey!

02:00:50:29 CORBETT: Are you even there?

02:00:54:10 REECE: I've been thinking about this. The only way that he--

02:00:57:08 CORBETT: No. This might be a trick.

02:01:01:00 REECE: You're right. It wouldn't be his first one today.02:01:02:24

02:01:15:14 Listen, in order to pull this off, he must have created a flight-simulationprogram that could interface between his computer and ours.

02:01:23:14 CORBETT: Yeah.

02:01:24:16 REECE: And then somehow, he hacked it into my laptop. I must havepassed it straight through to the FMC when I uploaded my flight plan inthe cockpit this morning.

02:01:31:11 CORBETT: And now he has total control of the aircraft.

02:01:33:29 REECE: Every critical function on Genisys II is computer controlled andthey're all user interfaced. About the only thing he can't do is f lush thetoilet, and actually, I'm not even sure about that.

02:01:43:09 CORBETT: So basically, what you're saying is we're screwed.02:01:45:25

02:02:18:01 REECE: My laptop is still linked. If I run a full quick restore through it,maybe it'll help reformat the FMC hard drive. That would destroy hisprogram and flip us into manual. That's the theory, anyway.

02:02:31:02 CORBETT: Good.02:02:32:18

02:02:39:08 GABRIEL: Why, Corbett, you old devil . A quickie with the pilot at 15,000feet.

02:02:44:05 REECE: Yeah, and it was amazing. Too bad you missed it. Got acigarette?

02:02:49:12 GABRIEL: Oh, I'm going to miss you, Captain Robinson.

02:02:52:25 REECE: Gee, it's a shame I can't say the same about you.02:02:55:22

02:03:02:07 CORBETT: Are you all right?

02:03:04:01 GABRIEL: Did you really think I'd leave any opening to chance?02:03:07:05

02:03:32:09 TAMMY: An ex-employee.

02:03:33:16 NED: Gone postal.

02:03:34:26 GABRIEL: Struck dumb, are we? Well, I expect this will get your gobsmoving again. You might want to check your fuel gage, Captain

Robinson.02:03:42:20

02:03:45:12 REECE: The reading just dropped to 6,000 pounds. There was almost10,000 there a minute ago.

02:03:49:14 GABRIEL: Actually, there wasn't. You could say I tweaked the settings alittle bit this morning to make sure that the maintenance guy would leaveyou with a short load.

02:04:43:06 NURSE: Sure. Okay.02:04:44:20

02:04:48:09 CORBETT: Don't do this, Gabriel. You hate me, okay, but don't forgetthat there's four innocent people on this plane, two of them are womenand one of them is going to have a baby.

02:05:12:23 You'll give me back my career... my reputation..02:05:16:27

02:05:22:00 how about my family?02:05:23:02

02:05:25:17 I lost my family working for you, Corbett. I had a daughter.02:05:29:25

02:05:34:10 CORBETT: I can't give you those back, obviously, but I can try andcompensate for their loss. Name your price. A million dollars? Twomillion dollars?

02:05:43:21

02:05:45:20 GABRIEL: How about 10?02:05:46:26

02:05:53:11 CORBETT: How much? Wingfield, just tell me, how much do you want?

02:05:56:26 GABRIEL: I want it all, Corbett. I want it all ! Still, $20 million, thatsounds like a nice round number. You think you can couple together thatkind of cash?

02:06:07:16 JOHN: Good God, yes, whatever it takes.

02:06:09:05 CORBETT: Okay. How do we get word to our people on the ground?

02:06:12:01 GABRIEL: Don't worry about that. It took them a litt le while to get intothe game, but they know exactly what's going on now.

02:06:18:23 Hello, boys. Did you miss me?

spider. It's Australian and very, very poisonous. We're still waiting on theblood work to confirm, but we suspect that she was bitten.

02:09:24:16 MRS. ABBOTT: How?

02:09:26:08 DOCTOR: No idea. Maybe you brought it home in some fruit orsomething from the grocery store. That doesn't matter right now. Ourproblem is that the nearest antivenom is in San Francisco. It's beingsent to us right now on a Lear Jet, but it won't be here for an hour. We'll

just have to find a way to keep her with us until then.

02:09:44:20 MRS. ABBOTT: No, Blair. It's okay, sweetie. Mommy's here. Mommy'shere.

02:09:46:28 DOCTOR: Mrs. Abbott, please. Mrs. Abbott.

02:09:50:02 MRS. ABBOTT: Help her!

02:09:51:09 DOCTOR: It's okay, sweetheart. Blair, sweetheart...

02:09:53:29 MRS. ABBOTT: Hang on, honey. Hurry.

02:09:59:02 It's okay, baby.

02:10:50:13 NED: Nobody showed up for the money. Then again, I guess you knewthat.

02:10:55:12 PETE: Well, let's just say I had a feeling. All that crap about thesuitcases having to be gray...

02:11:00:10 NED: Yeah... and telling us to leave the money in an open f ield, forcrying out loud where surveillance would be a piece of cake. It's just agoose chase. It's not about the money, it's about revenge.

02:11:11:10 PETE: How much time do we have, Ned?

02:11:14:06 NED: An hour, nearly.02:11:15:24

02:11:19:25 PETE: I thought I hit hell about six months ago in a Honolulu bar. Itdoesn't compare to this.

02:11:25:25

02:11:29:07 I taught her how to f ly, Ned. I taught her how to fly, and now she's upthere and I'm down here on the ground with no way of helping her.

02:11:38:19 NED: You know, there's some pretty smart folks back at the ControlCenter, Bird Dog. I mean, they could still crack this thing in time.

02:11:43:01 PETE: They're never going to get it. He's covered his tracks too well. Inan hour or so, he's going to be on some rooftop or some balconywatching that plane go down in the middle of Seattle and burst intoflames.

02:11:53:12 NED: God damnit. You're right. I mean--

02:11:57:22 PETE: What?

02:11:58:15 NED: Gabriel, he's not transmitting from Australia. He's right here inSeattle. A guy like that, he'd want a front-row seat to witness his bigfinale.

02:12:04:28 PETE: Yeah, he wouldn't miss it for the world. So big deal, Ned. I mean,we found the haystack, but where's the needle, huh?

02:12:11:16

02:12:15:19 NED: Hey, hey, wait. Where are you going?

02:12:18:00 PETE: I can't just stay here and do nothing, okay? I have to dosomething, even if it's just going out and driving around. I mean, maybeif there is a God, He'll put me on the right street or something.

02:12:30:16 NED: Bird Dog, you've got to hang in there with us. Oh, shit.02:12:35:13

02:12:37:28 JOHN: What do you mean the deal's off?

02:12:40:23 GABRIEL: Let's just say the duffer fell short.

02:12:42:23 JOHN: But we got you what you wanted.

02:12:44:16 GABRIEL: You got me what you thought I wanted. I just decided to playalong for the lark of it.

02:12:49:19 REECE: You sick prick.

02:12:50:29 GABRIEL: Sick? I really don't think so, Kitten Robinson. I prefer to thinkof myself as singleminded. This in not about money, it never could be.It's about respect.

02:13:00:17 CORBETT: Well, believe me, Wingfield, you have my respect. I thinkyou're a true genius. Now, can we please end this now?

02:13:06:09 GABRIEL: That's lame, Corbett. No, I'm afraid the arrogance andsarcasm I still detect on the tip of your tongue won't be completelyswallowed until your airplane spirals into the ground at 400 miles anhour, then you'll respect me.

02:13:21:14 JOHN: This can't be happening. It's insane.

02:13:23:16 CORBETT: John--

02:13:24:08 JOHN: For God's sake, you have to--

02:13:25:13 CORBETT: There's nothing she can do. It's him.02:13:29:22

02:13:45:21 TAMMY: Okay, let's try reconfiguring again.02:13:47:09

02:13:53:08 NED: Come on, people. There has to be a way out of this.02:13:55:23

02:13:59:15 45 minutes.02:14:00:15

02:14:13:09 PETE: Yeah, I'm here.

02:14:14:18 NED: Where's here?

02:14:16:06 PETE: Well...

02:14:17:28 NED: You don't sound too good. Been drinking?

02:14:20:25 PETE: I think there are more important things to worry about right nowthan me.

02:14:23:14 NED: I'll give you that one.

02:14:25:03 NICK: For God's sake, will you let him land? What harm can it do?

02:14:27:13 NED: Hold on, Bird Dog. Nick, what?

02:14:29:08 NICK: It's the Tower. The FBI's ordered them to divert all air traffic awayfrom Seattle.

02:14:34:11 NED: That seems reasonable enough to me under the circumstances.

02:14:37:02 NICK: Yeah, I know, but there's a Lear Jet on its way up from SanFrancisco on a medical emergency. Some little girl got bit by a, like, afunnel-web spider this morning. She could die without the antivenom.

02:14:46:12 NED: So this little girl's on the Lear Jet?

02:14:48:03 NICK: No, the antivenom's on the Lear. Kid got bit here in Seattle.

02:14:53:14 NED: Pete...

02:14:54:07 PETE: Australia.

02:14:55:23 NED: What?

02:14:57:04 PETE: The funnel-web spider comes from Australia.

02:14:59:13 NED: Like Gabriel? I don't know. That's a stretch.

02:15:01:19 PETE: Yeah. Yeah, I know, Ned, but it's all we've got to go on. Look, callthe Tower, find out what hospital that kid's in, and then call me rightback, okay?

02:15:08:26 NED: Yeah, all right.02:15:10:00

02:15:44:19 PETE: Hello. You're Mrs. Abbott, right?

02:15:46:14 MRS. ABBOTT: Yeah.

02:15:48:04 PETE: Your daughter was bitten by the spider?

02:15:49:26 MRS. ABBOTT: Yeah. You're not a doctor, are you?

02:15:52:24 PETE: Uh, no. I'm from the Health Department, and we need youraddress.

02:15:57:06 DOCTOR: What's going on here? Who are you?

02:15:59:17 PETE: Oh, well, I'm with the Health Department, and we need to--

02:16:02:10 DOCTOR: Call security.

02:16:04:14 PETE: Mrs. Abbott, please. This is a matter of life and death.

02:16:07:13 DOCTOR: Sir, whoever you are, you have to leave now.

02:16:12:20 MRS. ABBOTT: It's 2649 Clarence Street, apartment 34.

02:16:15:10 PETE: All right. Thank you, and don't worry. Your little girl's going to beokay.

02:16:19:18

02:16:24:20 MRS. ABBOTT: I know.02:16:26:01

02:18:00:16 CORBETT: You need me up here.

02:18:02:19 REECE: No. You should be back with Brandee and the Senator. Theyneed you.

02:18:05:25

02:18:23:29 GABRIEL: Piss off. I'm busy.

02:18:26:01 PETE: Yeah, well, I'm really sorry to bother you, but I have a delivery forthe people in the apartment above yours and they're not home right now,so I was just wondering if you wouldn't mind--

02:18:33:21 GABRIEL: Yeah, I mind.

02:18:35:02 PETE: Well, are you sure? I mean, you know it 'd save me another trip,and it looks like something that might be important.

02:18:40:10

02:18:47:00 Get up.02:18:48:00

02:18:53:04 Have a seat. Now, you're going to unlock or undo or unwhatever it isyou've got to do to restore manual control of that airplane to the pilot.

02:19:01:20

02:19:05:00 You think that's funny?

02:19:06:17 GABRIEL: Go ahead, if it'd make you feel any better.02:19:08:09

02:19:11:15 Oh, what a shame. They brought the wrong detachment of the cavalry.Imagine that, a real live Luddite.

02:19:16:25

02:19:18:26 PETE: You're a real funny guy, aren't you?02:19:21:06

02:19:30:09 GABRIEL: She's lovely, isn't she?

02:19:32:10 PETE: Yeah. Just let me talk to her.

02:19:34:07 GABRIEL: I know who you are now. You're the touchy voice at the otherend of the line.

02:19:38:17 PETE: Just shut up, asshole. Put me through to her.

02:19:41:16 GABRIEL: Yes, why not? But you better hurry if you're going to ask herout on a date.

02:19:47:11 PETE: Reece? Can you hear me? It's me, Pete.

02:19:49:19 REECE: Peter, what are you doing there?

02:19:50:26 PETE: well, it's kind of a long strange story. I'll tell you later.

02:19:54:03 REECE: Who's there with you?

02:19:55:06 PETE: Just me and Gabriel, but I want you to hold tight 'cause help's onthe way.

02:19:59:15 REECE: Okay, that's good to know.02:20:01:03

02:20:50:18 PETE: Shit!

02:20:51:18

02:21:02:07 GABRIEL: Tick, tick, tick...02:21:04:17

02:21:15:07 PETE: Reece!

02:21:16:16 REECE: Peter, what's happening? Are you okay?

02:21:19:25 PETE: Yeah. Gabriel's dead. It's just me now, for whatever that's worth.

02:21:25:01 REECE: It's worth a lot, Peter. You've got to stop selling yourself short,although I would admit, it would be nice if you knew something aboutcomputers right about now.

02:21:32:12 PETE: Yeah, well, I'll join a computer class f irst thing in the morning.02:21:36:24

02:21:40:26 So, I don't know. The fuel doesn't look too bad. What do you think, 15,20 minutes?

02:21:47:17 REECE: Nice try, Dewmont. Seven, tops.02:21:50:00

02:21:54:25 NED: No, no, no, don't shoot. It's okay.

02:21:57:02 PETE: Thank God.

02:21:58:17

02:22:01:16 Reece, it's going to be okay. Help's here.02:22:04:21

02:22:08:06 REECE: Okay, everybody, Gabriel's been taken out. The Genisysground team are on site. It won't take them very long to figure out whathe did to us and turn us loose. That's the good news. The bad news is, isthat we're running out of fuel. This is not going to be a routine flight, soplease, everybody buckle up tight. Brandee, I promise I'll do everything I

can not to bounce David around too much, okay?02:22:26:27

02:22:32:13 Okay, any time. Give me back my airplane.02:22:36:12

02:22:38:16 TAMMY: No, Goddamnit. No way.

02:22:39:28 NED: What?

02:22:40:25 TAMMY: The bastard gave himself a backup.

02:22:42:17 NED: What do you mean a backup?

02:22:43:23 TAMMY: He must have done it when he got inside and installed thosevideo cams.

02:22:46:14 PETE: Done what? What are you talking about?

02:22:48:02 TAMMY: Gabriel reconfigured most of the key onboard systems. If we

switch off the flight-management computer now, yeah, they'll havemanual, but it'll be manual with no computer-assisted flight controlswhatsoever and no hydraulics, which means extremely limited handling,no flaps, and no landing gear.

02:23:02:21 NED: Can it be reconfigured?

02:23:03:23 TAMMY: Onboard, yes, but not from here. I could try and talk themthrough it, but--

02:23:07:15 PETE: You can't talk them down. There's no time.

02:23:09:12 REECE: He's right. We're down to fumes. Cut us loose.

02:23:11:25 TAMMY: You can't land a plane like Genisys II with that many failedsystems. It's practically suicide.

02:23:16:24 PETE: What else are you going to do, wait until they run out of fuel andjust drop out of the sky? I mean, there's got to be some kind ofemergency mechanical gear extensions for the wheels, doesn't there?

02:23:25:19 TAMMY: Yes, but--

02:23:26:26 PETE: Look, just cut them loose, okay, or I'm going to pull the plugmyself.

02:23:30:01 REECE: Do it now. Disengage us from the FMC.

02:23:32:04 NED: Tammy...

02:23:33:15 TAMMY: All right, all right.02:23:35:08

02:23:39:29 You're on your own after I do this, Genisys II. See you on the Tarmac.

02:23:45:05 PETE: Wait a second. Reece...

PAGE 31

02:23:49:04 REECE: I wish you were with me here right now, Peter. I need to holdyour hand.

02:23:52:07 PETE: Yeah, me too, but you can do this all by yourself. Just do it byfeel, you know, the way I taught you?

02:23:58:25 REECE: I remember. Be the airplane.

02:24:00:24 PETE: That's right. You be the airplane. Wings level, nose-up attitude,just let her settle down on her own and keep her straight.

02:24:09:23 REECE: I can do that.

02:24:11:17 PETE: I know you can, and Reece, don't ever forget this, I love you.

02:24:19:24 REECE: I love you, too.02:24:21:28

02:24:28:20 TAMMY: Okay, Reece, you've got control.02:24:30:18

02:24:34:01 REECE: Oh yes. Seattle Tower, this is Genisys II. Do you read?

02:24:40:10 SEATTLE TOWER: Welcome back, Genisys II. We see you've left yourholding pattern.

02:24:43:11 REECE: Affirmative, Seatt le Tower. I'm planning a straight-in approachon runway 34.

02:24:47:09

02:24:55:13 Damnit. Mayday. Mayday. This is Genisys II declaring an emergency.We just ran out of fuel. I've lost both engines.

02:25:03:06 SEATTLE TOWER: Are you still planning 34?

02:25:04:26 REECE: Yeah. I think I have enough altitude for a glide in.02:25:07:10

02:25:11:02 I'm hoping to drop my landing gear mechanically, but even if I do, it'sstill a dead-stick landing.

02:25:15:09

02:25:33:28 BRANDEE: Sure is quiet out there. Must be like this all the time for thebirds.

02:25:40:04

02:25:49:13 CORBETT: Look. It's a Lear. He's in an awful big hurry to get down, isn't

he?

02:25:55:19 REECE: Okay, it won't be long now. I want everybody to assume crashpositions. Bend forward, grab your ankles, and stay down.

02:26:02:25

02:26:18:10 PETE: Come on, Reece, your glide's too high.

02:26:20:18 REECE: Oh, shit.

PAGE 32

02:26:21:20 CORBETT: What?

02:26:22:25 REECE: I'm too high and we're too hot. I think we're going to overshoot.

02:26:25:29 CORBETT: On runway 34, you mean?

02:26:27:16 REECE: Forget 34. I think we're going to overshoot the field.02:26:29:27

02:26:39:00 Seattle Tower, this is Genisys II. How are we looking from down there?

02:26:42:16 SEATTLE TOWER: I have you two miles out at 4,000 feet.

02:26:45:11 REECE: Okay, so we're not going to make the f ield. I have to get herdown.

02:26:49:15

02:26:52:09 I'm going to use the trim to rub the nose and I'll sideslip in. It's going tobe steep and we're going to be coming in like the space shuttle, but ifwe're lucky, I might make the end of the field.

02:27:01:06 SEATTLE TOWER: It's your call, Genisys II.02:27:02:26

02:27:05:07 REECE: Yeah, well, I'm open to any other suggestions, believe me.

02:27:07:26 SEATTLE TOWER: Copy that. The f ield is yours, Genisys II. Look, if you can drop it inside, you're best bet is probably the old emergencyrunway out at the southwest corner.

02:27:15:10 REECE: Okay. That's my target then.

02:27:16:29 SEATTLE TOWER: Roger that and good luck.02:27:18:23

02:27:26:05 Genisys II, your approach wind is 300 at 15.

02:27:29:00 REECE: 300 degrees, 15 knots, check. You can do this, Reece.02:27:34:10

02:27:36:02 CORBETT: You're looking good, Captain.

02:27:38:05 REECE: Altitude's good on profile to touchdown point. Speed's okay.Check for crosswinds. Keep her level. Keep her straight. Be the airplane.Oh, Jesus. The landing gear.

02:27:53:10

02:28:01:04 Okay, left and right are a-go, but the nose gear isn't coming down.

02:28:05:00 CORBETT: Well, we're going to go ass over tea kettle.

02:28:07:00 REECE: You don't have to tell me, just help me.02:28:08:17

02:28:12:12 CORBETT: Come on, piece of crap.02:28:14:24

PAGE 33

02:28:23:24 Nose gear is down.02:28:25:11

02:30:18:03 CORBETT: It's okay, baby. He'll be all right.02:30:19:25

02:30:48:16 Frankly, I'd like to kiss her myself. That woman just did one hell of a job.

02:30:53:21 PETE: Oh, yeah, I know she did.

02:30:55:23 REECE: I had a really good teacher once.

02:30:57:04 PETE: I don't remember teaching you any of that. Maybe you couldteach me some of those new tricks, huh?

02:31:04:25 REECE: Maybe it's something we could talk about over dinner?02:31:07:20
