NARRATOR For more than a year, ominous rumors have been privately circulating among high level western lea

3、ders, that the Soviet Union had been at work on what was darkly hinted to be the ultimate weapon, a doomsday device. Intelligence sources traced the site of the top secret Russian project to the perpetually fog shrouded wasteland below the arctic peaks of the Zokov islands. What they were building,

4、or why it should be located in a such a remote and desolate place, no one could say. CUT TO:ROLL CREDITSTracking shot of B-52 in mid-air refuel. Soundtrack lilts Try a Little Tenderness.

5、 buzzes. PETTY OFFICER General Ripper, sir. MANDRAKE (to phone on his desk)Group Captain Mandrake speaking. Ripper sits at his desk, cigar smoke wafting up through the light of his desk lamp. RIPPER (to phone) This is General Ripper speaking. MANDRAKE Yes, sir. RIPPER You recognize my voice, Mandrak

6、e? MANDRAKE I do sir, why do you ask? RIPPER Why do you think I asked? MANDRAKE Well I dont know, sir. We spoke just a few moments ago on the phone, didnt we? RIPPER You dont think Id ask if you recognized my voice unless it was pretty damned important do you, Mandrake? MANDRAKE No, I dont, sir. No.

7、 RIPPER Alright, lets see if we stay on the ball. Has the wing confirmed holding at their failsafe points? MANDRAKE Yes, sir. The confirmations have all just come in. RIPPER Very well, now, listen to me carefully. The base is being put on condition red. I want this flashed to all sections immediatel

8、y. MANDRAKE Condition red, sir. Yes. Jolly good idea, keeps the men on their toes. RIPPER Group Captain, Im afraid this is not a exercise. MANDRAKE Not an exercise, sir? RIPPER I shouldnt tell you this, Mandrake, but youre a good officer and you have a right to know. It looks like were in a shooting

9、 war. MANDRAKE Oh, hell. Are the Russians involved sir? RIPPER Mandrake, thats all Ive been told. It just came in on the Red Phone. My orders are for this base to be sealed tight, and thats what I mean to do: seal it tight. Now, I want you to transmit plan R, R for Robert, to the wing. Plan R for Ro

10、bert. MANDRAKE Is it that bad sir? RIPPER It looks like its pretty hairy. MANDRAKE Yes sir. Plan R for Robert, sir. RIPPER Now, last, and possibly most important, I want all privately owned radios to be immediately impounded. MANDRAKE Yes sir. RIPPER They might be used to issue instructions to sabot

11、eurs. As I have previously arranged, Air Police will have lists of all owners and I want every single one of them collected without exception. MANDRAKE Yes sir. RIPPER And after youve done that, report back to me. Ripper closes the blinds on wall of windows looking out at the base. Outside, a SIREN

12、SOUNDS. CUT TO:EXT. AIRBORNE B-52S With escorts. NARRATOR In order to guard against surprise nuclear attack, Americas Strategic Air Command maintains a large force of B-52 bombers airborne 24 hours a day. Each B-52 can deliver a nuclear bombload of 50 megatons, equal to 16 times the total explosive

13、force of all the bombs and shells used by all the armies in World War Two. Based in America, the Airborne alert force is deployed from the Persian Gulf to the Arctic Ocean, but they have one geographical factor in common: they are all two hours from their targets inside Russia. CUT TO:INT. B-52 Mach

14、ines spring to life as a transmission arrives. GOLDIE Major Kong, I know youre gonna think this a crazy but I just got a message from base over the CRM 114. It decodes as Wing Attack plan R. R for Romeo. KONG Goldie, did you say Wing Attack, plan R? GOLDIE Yes Sir, I have. KONG Goldie, how many time

15、s have I told you guys that I dont want no horsin around on the airplane? GOLDIE Im not horsin around, sir, thats how it decodes. KONG Well Ive been to one world fair a picnic and a rodeo and thats the stupidest thing I ever heard come over a set of earphones. You sure you got todays code? GOLDIE Ye

16、s sir, it is. KONG Ah, theres just gotta be something wrong. Wait just a second, Im comin back. Kong examines the decoded message and the code book. KONG Maybe you better get a confirmation from base. GOLDIE Yes sir. BOMBARDIER Major Kong, is it possible that this is some kind of loyalty test. You k

17、now, give the go code and then recall to see who would actually go? KONG Aint nobody ever got the go code yet. And old Ripper wouldnt be giving us plan R unless them Russkies had already clobbered Washington and a lot of other towns with a sneak attack. BOMBARDIER Yes sir. GOLDIE Major Kong, message

18、 from base confirmed. KONG Well boys, I reckon this is it: nuclear combat, toe to toe with the Russkies. Kong climbs back into the cockpit. Soundtrack: Battle Hymn of the Republic. KONG Now look boys, I aint much of a hand at makin speeches. But I got a pretty fair idea that something doggoned impor

19、tants going on back there. And I got a fair idea of the kind of personal emotions that some of you fellas may be thinking. Heck, I reckon you wouldnt even be human beings if you didnt have some pretty strong personal feelings about nuclear combat. But I want you to remember one thing, the folks back

20、 home is a countin on ya, and by golly we aint about to let em down. Tell you somethin else. This thing turns out to be half as important is I figure it just might be, Id say that youre all in line for some important promotions and personal citations when this things over with. That goes for every l

21、ast one of you, regardless of your race, color, or your creed. Now, lets get this thing on the hump. We got some flying to do. CUT TO:INT. GENERAL TURGIDSONS STUDIO Phone rings. MISS SCOTT (shouting) Buck, should I get it? TURGIDSON (muffled) Yeah. You have to. MISS SCOTT (to phone) Hello? Oh, yes,

22、General Turgidson is here, but Im afraid he cant come to the phone at the moment. Well, this is his secretary, Miss Scott.(softly)Freddie, how are you? Fine and you? Oh, we were just catching up on some of the Generals paperwork. Well, look Freddie, hes very tied up at the moment. Im afraid he cant

23、come to the phone. (listens)Well, just a minute.(shouts to Tuirgidson) General Turgidson, a General Puntridge calling. TURGIDSON Tell him to call back. MISS SCOTT (to phone) Freddie, the General says could you call back in a minute or two? Oh. (shouting) He says it cant wait. TURGIDSON Ah, for Pete.

24、 well. Find out what he wants. MISS SCOTT Freddie, the thing is, the General is in the powder room right now. Could you tell me what its about? Just a second. (shouting) Apparently they monitored a transmission about eight minutes ago from Burpleson Air Force Base.(to phone)Right. (shouting) It was

25、directed to the 843rd bomb wing on airborne alert.(to phone)Yeah. (shouting) It decoded as Wing Attack, Plan R. TURGIDSON Um ah, tell him to call uh whats his name. Base commander. Ripper. I have to think of everything? MISS SCOTT (to phone) The General suggests you call General Ripper, the 843rd ba

26、se commander. Oh. (shouting) All communications are dead. TURGIDSON Bull! Tell him to do it himself. MISS SCOTT Freddie, the General asks if you could possibly try again yourself. (listens)I see. (shouting) He says hes tried personally several times, but everything is dead. Even the normal phone lin

27、es are shut down. Turgidson emerges from the bathroom, grumbling. TURGIDSON (to phone) Fred. Buck. Whats it look like? Yeah. Waa. are you sure its plan R? Huh. Whats cookin on the threat board.? Nothin? Nothin at all? I dont like the look of this, Fred. Alright, I tell you what you better do, old bu

28、ddy.(slaps his belly) You better give Elmo and Charlie a blast, and bump everything up to condition red and stand by the blower, Ill get back to you. (hangs up) MISS SCOTTWhats up? TURGIDSON Nothing. Nothing. Wheres my shorts? MISS SCOTT On the floor. Where are you going? TURGIDSON No place. No. no

29、place. I just thought I might mosey over to the War room for a few minutes. See whats doing over there. MISS SCOTT Its three oclock in the morning. TURGIDSON (laughs) The Air Force never sleeps. MISS SCOTT Buck, honey. Im not sleepy either. TURGIDSON I know how it is, baby. Tell you what you do. You

30、 just start your countdown, and old Buckyll be back here before you can say. Blast Off! CUT TO:EXT. BURPLESON AFB NIGHT Rippers voice booms over the PA. Ready soldiers stand listening. RIPPER Your commie has no regard for human life, not even his own. And for this reason, men, I want to impress upon

31、 you the need for extreme watchfulness. The enemy may come individually, or he may come in strength. He may even come in the uniform of our own troops. But however he comes we must stop him. We must not allow him to gain entrance to this base. Now, I am going to give you three simple rules. First, t

32、rust no one, whatever his uniform or rank, unless he is known to you personally. Second, anyone or anything that approaches within 200 yards of the perimeter is to be fired upon. Third, if in doubt, shoot first, and ask questions afterwards. I would sooner accept a few casualties through accident th

33、an lose the entire base and its personnel through carelessness. Any variation on these rules must come from me personally. Now, men, in conclusion, I would like to say that, in the two years it has been my privilege to be your commanding officer, I have always expected the best from you, and you hav

34、e never given me anything less than that. CUT TO:INT. COMPUTER ROOM INT. BURPLESON AFB Mandrake, who has been closing up shop while listening to Rippers speech, discovers a radio inside a line printer and switches it on. Soft jazz is playing. RIPPERS VOICE Today, the nation is counting on us. We are

35、 not going to let them down. Good luck to you all. CUT TO:INT. AIRBORNE B-52 Soundtrack: Battle Hymn of the Republic. AIRMAN (to Kong) Heres the attack profile, sir. KONG (announcing through headset intercom) This is your attack profile: to insure that the enemy cannot monitor voice transmission or

36、plant false transmission, the CRM114 is to be switched into all the receiver circuits. Emergency phase code prefix is to be set on the dials of the CRM. Thisll block any transmission other than those preceded by code prefix. Stand by to set code prefix. GOLDIERoger. Ready to set code prefix. KONG Se

37、t code prefix. GOLDIE (dials up letters) OPE Code prefix set. KONG Lock code prefix. GOLDIE Code prefix locked. KONG Switch all receiver circuits to CRM discriminators. GOLDIE All circuits switched to CRM discriminators. KONG Check auto destruct circuits. GOLDIE Auto destruct circuits checked. KONG

38、Primary target, the ICBM complex at Laputa. Target reference Yankee Golf Tango Three Six Zero. Thirty megaton nuclear device fused for airburst at ten thousand feet. Twenty megaton nuclear device will be used if first malfunctions. Otherwise proceed to secondary target, missile complex seven miles e

39、ast of Barshaw. Target reference November Bravo X-Ray One Zero Eight. Fused airburst at ten, check, twelve thousand feet. CUT TO:INT. BURPLESON AFB Mandrake walks hurriedly through the halls with the portable radio producing another jazz tune, now upbeat. Mandrake enters.RIPPERS OFFICE MANDRAKE Excu

40、se me sir, something rather interestings just cropped up. Listen to that. Music. Civilian broadcasting. I think those fellows in the Pentagon have given us some sort of exercise to test our readiness. Personally, I think its taking it a bit too far; our fellows will be inside Russian radar cover in

41、about twenty minutes. You listen to that. Traffic block full of stations all churning it out. RIPPER Mandrake. MANDRAKE Yes, sir? RIPPER I thought I issued instructions for all radios on this base to be impounded. MANDRAKE (follows Ripper as he rises from his chair to lock his office door) Well you

42、did indeed sir and I was in the process of impounding this very one when I happened to switch it on. I thought to myself our fellows hitting Russian radar cover in twenty minutes, dropping all their stuff, Id better tell you, because if they do, itll cause a bit of a stink, wont it? RIPPER Group Cap

43、tain, the officer exchange program does not give you any special prerogatives to question my orders. MANDRAKE Well I realize that sir, but I thought youd be rather pleased to hear the news. I mean after all, well lets face it we.we dont want to start a nuclear war unless we really have to, do we? RI

44、PPER Please sit down. And turn that thing off. MANDRAKE Yes sir. Ah, what about the planes, sir? Surely you must issue the recall code immediately. RIPPER Group Captain, the planes are not going to be recalled. My attack orders have been issued and the orders stand. MANDRAKE Well, if youll excuse me

45、 saying so, sir. That would be, to my way of thinking, rather. well rather an odd way of looking at it. You see, if a Russian attack was in progress we would certainly not be hearing civilian broadcasting. RIPPER Are you certain of that, Mandrake? MANDRAKE Im absolutely positive about that, sir, yes

46、. RIPPER And what if it is true? MANDRAKE Well Im afraid Im still not with you, sir. Because, I mean, if a Russian attack was not in progress then your use of plan R, in fact your orders to the entire wing. oh. Well I would say, sir, that there was something dreadfully wrong somewhere. RIPPER Now, why dont you just take it easy Group Captain. And please make me a drink of grain alcohol and rain water, and help yourself to whatever youd lik
