has been stopped by the bomb.
1:31:02
We're secure at Wildfire.
1:31:03
We have everything we need
to achieve a breakthrough.

1:31:08
All we have to do is attack this
problem like any other in science.

1:31:11
You could spend years
1:31:12
working on a thing like that
1:31:13
without solving its structure.
1:31:14
But when you do, there'll be
1:31:16
some red faces around.
1:31:17
It could change everything.
1:31:22
Great.
1:31:24
Ruth, since Kirke isn't here,
1:31:25
you take over the growth
program in microbiology.

1:31:27
We're halfway home if we find out
1:31:29
what will keep that from growing.
1:31:31
Charlie, you work with
me on the E.M. Hall...

1:31:34
All right.
1:31:35
Let me get back to my patients.
1:31:36
I'm sure they were
protected by the same thing:

1:31:38
Some simple mechanism
1:31:39
I just don't recognize yet.
1:31:41
There's got to be something
1:31:42
that the old man and
baby have in common.

1:31:45
Oh, Hall?
1:31:48
Five minutes.
1:31:49
You told me before.
1:31:51
Yes, we wouldn't want you to get
1:31:52
too far from the substation now.
1:32:02
Men, keep a
sharp eye open for pieces of rubber.

1:32:06
I'll repeat that for you.
1:32:07
Keep a sharp eye open
for pieces of rubber.

1:32:13
Major!
1:32:14
Major Manchek!
1:32:19
Take a look at that, sir.
1:32:23
We just found this, General.
1:32:25
It's a human bone.
1:32:26
Arm, I think.
1:32:29
It looks picked clean,
1:32:30
almost like it was polished.
1:32:32
That's right.
1:32:33
Well, I don't get it.
1:32:34
There is no actual rubber
1:32:36
on the Phantom F-4, General.
1:32:37
It's all a synthetic plastic
1:32:40
compound called polycron.
1:32:42
It has some of the characteristics
1:32:44
of human skin.
1:32:45
What the hell is that?
1:32:47
What's left of his oxygen mask.
1:32:49
It's made of polycron.
1:32:51
I'd say it was done
by a chemical reaction

1:32:53
of some sort.
1:32:53
Or maybe a microorganism.
1:32:55
Meaning?
1:32:56
Meaning there was something
1:32:57
in that plane that consumes plastic.
