Major Anderson
there's a phone call for you

1:01:09
Thank you
1:01:11
Gimme just a second here, guys
1:01:16
This is Major Anderson
1:01:20
Hello? Anyone there?
1:01:22
Major?
1:01:23
Yes, sir
1:01:24
My name's Kenneth O'Donnell
Special Assistant to the President

1:01:29
Major, a few days ago
the President ordered me to...

1:01:31
help him keep control of
what's going on out there

1:01:35
I've been brow-beating pilots
navy guys left and right

1:01:40
to make sure you don't get us here
in Washington into trouble

1:01:44
But you know what?
1:01:47
We're pretty damn good ourselves
at getting into trouble

1:01:51
So instead of riding your ass
1:01:54
I'm just gonna tell you
what's going on here

1:01:55
and let you figure out
how best to help us out up here

1:01:57
Go ahead, sir
1:02:00
Last night, it looked like
1:02:02
we were gonna cut a deal
to get us all out of this mess

1:02:05
Today the Soviets are reneging
1:02:08
We're gonna try
and salvage the situation

1:02:10
but a lot of things
are going wrong today

1:02:15
It's making everyone nervous
1:02:18
If more things go wrong
people will become more nervous

1:02:21
and it will be very hard
to aviod going to war

1:02:26
I'm not sure
what you're trying to tell me, sir

1:02:28
Just my standard line
1:02:30
I've been repeating
to guys like you all week

1:02:34
Don't get shot down
1:02:38
Beyond that
1:02:39
whatever else you can do to help us
I'd appreciate it

1:02:42
Sir
1:02:47
When you're at 72, 000 feet
a million things can go wrong

1:02:52
Is your Oxygen mix right?
Are your cameras gonna freeze up?

1:02:56
Are you leaving a contrail?
1:02:57
Those million things
they're beyond your control, mostly
