U.S. military escort CDC team
requesting permission to enter Egyptian airspace.
Permission granted.
Dr. Scott, on to the right. Take a look.
He's on approach.
Visibility - good. Time to target - three minutes.
Roger that. 2-2-0.
Roger that. I see it.
Status - green.
Dr. Scott, prepare for landing.
Putting down close to DLZ.
20 feet.
10 feet.
And we're down.
Doctor, you've got five minutes.
This way.
There are 6,000 quarantined in this camp.
We have 387 dead.
My staff is down to six!
I thought you were bringing more doctors with you.
These are the latest to come down with the virus.
Once the spots come, they die in two days.
I'm sorry.
Make sure those snowmobiles go to starboard hangar "F"!
Chief Spurling, Chief Lewis, we are getting under way at 1300.
Let's pick up the pace, okay?!
Yeah, I know all about the Naval mountain warfare unit,
but I've never heard of a dog setting foot on a destroyer.
This isn't just a dog. This is Admiral Halsey.
And he's a mean operator.
Yeah? Well, so is the Captain.
You can just put that down over there.
Be careful. That's delicate equipment.
I take it you're my new houseguest.
I'm Commander Chandler, ship's Captain.
Rachel Scott.
I'm sorry we had to take over your helicopter bay,
but it was the only space large enough to accommodate our lab.
I got 217 men and women on this ship.
Anything I should be concerned about?
Oh, this?
This is just so we don't contaminate the work...
Not the other way around.
What exactly are you gonna be studying up there?
Birds.
Birds?
We are virologists --
Tracking obscure microbes in hard-to-get-to places.
Pretty boring stuff, actually.
We really do appreciate your assistance, Captain Chandler.
We're here to serve.
Welcome aboard, doctor.
Roger that. Red deck.
Bird's chocked and chained, heading to the barn.
Damn, it's cold. I can't feel my face.
Lieutenant Granderson, tell me -- do I still have my face?
Yes, Sir,though it looks like you could use some lip balm,Sir.
Should've taken that desk job in Miami.
It is cold!
Captain's on the bridge!
X.O. Slattery,
let's see if we can get your frozen ass back to Norfolk.
T.A.O., Bridge. Bridge, T.A.O.
Our helo just dropped a target for our final missile test.
Target's five feet long, two feet wide,
and in the icy water has no heat signature.
Let's find it and kill it.
Scanning for target.
Scanning zone.
Kill track 5205.Target acquired.
Target acquired. Break.
Kill track 0845, aye.
Mss, kill track 0845.
Missile ready to fire.
Missile clear. 2-2-0, 30.
30,000.
Target confirmed kill.
Good afternoon Nathan James. This is the Captain.
After four very challenging months at the top of the world,
we have just passed our final test,
and I'm proud to say you did it with flying colors.
I'm asking the Pentagon if we can break radio silence today
and make calls and e-mail.
Bravo zulu to each and every one of you.
Enjoy your success, 'cause we're going home.
Gonna drop to 50 below. Get them off the ice.
Aye, sir.
Dr. Scott, come in.
Dr. Scott, are you there?
Please respond.
Dr. Scott, come in.
You have got to be kidding me.
We're so close.
We need to make sure the isolate isn't contaminated.
We need more samples.
It's all right, Rachel. We can come back tomorrow.
Ma'am, we've been trying to reach you.
C.O. wants you back on the ship.
You can tell the Captain that I'll return when I'm ready.
It wasn't an invitation, ma'am.
Right now. Captain's orders.
Landing check is complete. Gear down and locked.
20 feet.
10 feet.
Wheels down.
We haul ass from here, we can make it back for the series.
You don't really think the cubs are still in it.
It's the weakest division in baseball.
We were six games up when we left.
Yeah, that was June. And they're the cubs.
Captain Chandler, you had no right to pull me from my work.
I'm gonna go check on the, uh... yeah.
Those men are here to support me.
You don't send them to bring me in.
Those men are sailors in the U.S. navy
and report directly to me. I say when I am done and ready.
My work is vital here, and I have finally found
what I'm looking for! Doctor!
First of all, thanks for checking in.
Think this is the first time you said more than three words
to me since we left Norfolk.
Well, I am sorry that I haven't had you over for tea.
You know, your attitude was mildly charming back in June in Virginia
but up here, at 50 below,
when none of us have talked to our families in four months,
not so charming.
Yeah, well, charm wasn't exactly my pri Still talking.
Now, I think I've been more than a gracious host --
taxied you and your assistant around the islands here
so you could chase after your ducks.
