:13:00
Every time I close my eyes,
all I see are those damn lights.

:13:03
- What a way to start.
- Terrible way to break in Al Bean.

:13:07
That's okay.
I don't mind.

:13:11
Not everybody was thinking about how
Al Bean was enjoying the mission.

:13:15
In Houston, unbeknownst to us,
there was serious concern...

:13:18
that the lightning had damaged
our pyrotechnic system...

:13:20
that would deploy our parachutes.
:13:22
If we run the TEl checklist...
:13:24
we test everything
they need to get home...

:13:26
except one big item:
Deployment of the chutes.

:13:30
Yeah, but if the barometric switches
and timers have failed...

:13:32
the crew
can deploy the chutes manually.

:13:35
But if the pyros
had already been fired...

:13:38
Once they're gone, pushing the deploy
button won't do anything at all.

:13:42
- Is there any way to check the pyros?
- Only visual inspection, from outside.

:13:50
All right,
I'll let you know.

:13:51
They finally decided
that if it had...

:13:53
we'd be just as dead splashing down now
as ten days from now.

:13:57
So they might as well
send us to the moon.

:14:03
Sugar
:14:06
Ah, honey, honey
:14:09
You are my candy, girl
:14:13
And you got me wanting you
:14:16
Come on now!
Honey

:14:19
- Honey?
- Yeah.

:14:21
Oh, sugar, sugar
:14:31
Damn it!
I wish I could shit.

:14:33
I don't have the slightest inclination,
but I know what will happen.

:14:35
It's gonna be the first shit
on the lunar surface.

:14:39
- Okay, Al, your turn.
- Excuse me?

:14:41
I don't want to take
any time out on the moon.

:14:43
Go down there
and try to make a poop.

:14:49
Why are you laughing?
You're next.

:14:51
I didn't know that as commander
you had that kind of authority.

:14:54
He thinks he can control
our bowel movements.

:14:56
On family trips, didn't your mother
make you go before you left?

:14:59
This is the longest damn vacation
you boys have ever been on...
