Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,165 --> 00:00:02,392
Previously on "The Astronaut Wives Club"...
2
00:00:02,393 --> 00:00:06,123
Seven military families
becoming American royalty.
3
00:00:06,124 --> 00:00:07,824
I'm a journalist. "Life" magazine.
4
00:00:07,825 --> 00:00:09,025
We'd be in the magazine?
5
00:00:09,026 --> 00:00:10,927
Sounds like we're propaganda.
6
00:00:10,928 --> 00:00:13,130
It's not like you ladies
have a lot of big secrets.
7
00:00:13,131 --> 00:00:15,832
Your father is gonna be
the first man in space.
8
00:00:16,968 --> 00:00:18,735
Here they are, the first lady
9
00:00:18,736 --> 00:00:20,137
and the first lady of space.
10
00:00:20,138 --> 00:00:21,938
First lady?
11
00:00:21,939 --> 00:00:24,541
I'm gonna be the second lady of space!
12
00:00:24,542 --> 00:00:25,575
They're going to the moon.
13
00:00:25,576 --> 00:00:26,976
We wives are gonna need each other.
14
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,348
When Alan B. Shepard became
15
00:00:31,349 --> 00:00:35,952
the first American in space,
the whole nation celebrated.
16
00:00:35,953 --> 00:00:39,022
But with the Russians
beating us into orbit,
17
00:00:39,023 --> 00:00:41,291
President Kennedy isn't slowing down.
18
00:00:41,292 --> 00:00:44,694
If all goes well,
Astronaut Virgil I. Grissom
19
00:00:44,695 --> 00:00:45,929
and his wife will be the next guests
20
00:00:45,930 --> 00:00:47,330
at the White House.
21
00:00:57,141 --> 00:01:00,343
You l-l-love yel-l-low.
22
00:01:03,748 --> 00:01:06,816
It's pretty, but it's too bright.
23
00:01:06,817 --> 00:01:09,085
Louise wore cream.
24
00:01:15,993 --> 00:01:17,594
Now wouldn't it be something if old Betty
25
00:01:17,595 --> 00:01:19,696
showed up to the White House wearing that?
26
00:01:19,697 --> 00:01:22,198
Oh, Annie, maybe the
reason I can't pick a dress
27
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,267
is 'cause I shouldn't be shopping for one.
28
00:01:24,268 --> 00:01:25,802
I'll just wait till Gus has come back safe.
29
00:01:25,803 --> 00:01:26,770
No.
30
00:01:26,771 --> 00:01:29,939
Th-think... Positive.
31
00:01:29,941 --> 00:01:32,242
Oh, heck.
32
00:01:32,243 --> 00:01:34,978
Cream's not my color anyway.
33
00:01:34,979 --> 00:01:37,747
Cream is... n-not a color.
34
00:01:37,748 --> 00:01:39,683
I don't even know how you get ready
35
00:01:39,684 --> 00:01:40,750
for something like this.
36
00:01:40,751 --> 00:01:42,252
It just seems like the biggest thing ever.
37
00:01:42,253 --> 00:01:43,987
I don't know how Louise stayed so calm.
38
00:01:43,988 --> 00:01:45,222
She's my rock.
39
00:01:45,223 --> 00:01:48,358
I was, uh, visiting my sister at school.
40
00:01:48,359 --> 00:01:52,562
I saw Louise at a dance,
and knew she was the one.
41
00:01:52,563 --> 00:01:55,565
In all honesty...
42
00:01:55,566 --> 00:01:56,933
My "Mercury" flight was
43
00:01:56,934 --> 00:01:58,535
my second proudest accomplishment.
44
00:01:58,536 --> 00:02:01,271
Getting Louise to marry me was my first.
45
00:02:01,272 --> 00:02:02,939
Her nickname was "frosty" at the time,
46
00:02:02,940 --> 00:02:04,374
and she earned it.
47
00:02:04,375 --> 00:02:05,516
Well, Mrs. Shepard,
48
00:02:05,517 --> 00:02:07,025
you must have had ice water in your veins
49
00:02:07,026 --> 00:02:08,213
the day your husband became
50
00:02:08,214 --> 00:02:10,647
the first American to go into space.
51
00:02:10,648 --> 00:02:11,748
It wasn't ice water.
52
00:02:11,749 --> 00:02:16,353
It was faith... in God... In N.A.S.A.,
53
00:02:16,354 --> 00:02:18,088
and most of all, in Alan.
54
00:02:18,089 --> 00:02:19,923
She's really good.
55
00:02:19,924 --> 00:02:22,859
It's as if N.A.S.A. Programmed her.
56
00:02:22,860 --> 00:02:25,962
Laugh all you want, but appearances matter.
57
00:02:25,963 --> 00:02:28,698
As "the Navy wife" says,
58
00:02:28,699 --> 00:02:30,800
our job is to be our husbands' jib sails.
59
00:02:30,801 --> 00:02:33,003
We not only help him face the headwinds.
60
00:02:33,004 --> 00:02:34,938
We're the first thing people notice
61
00:02:34,939 --> 00:02:36,172
when he pulls into port.
62
00:02:36,173 --> 00:02:37,874
Ah, well,
63
00:02:37,875 --> 00:02:40,410
Deke's never complained about my jib.
64
00:02:42,613 --> 00:02:44,881
Mrs. Slayton?
65
00:02:44,882 --> 00:02:46,249
May I have a word?
66
00:02:46,250 --> 00:02:48,485
Depends on what the word is.
67
00:02:53,324 --> 00:02:56,026
No one in this house has
any use for a private dick.
68
00:02:56,027 --> 00:02:58,661
Actually, I'm working for
"Confidential" magazine
69
00:02:58,663 --> 00:02:59,963
checking up on a story.
70
00:02:59,964 --> 00:03:02,031
We have a deal with "Life" magazine.
71
00:03:02,033 --> 00:03:04,501
My husband's got no
place in those rag mags.
72
00:03:04,502 --> 00:03:06,236
I couldn't agree more, ma'am.
73
00:03:06,237 --> 00:03:07,804
This story's about you.
74
00:03:14,412 --> 00:03:16,680
So what if I was poor?
So was everyone back then.
75
00:03:16,681 --> 00:03:18,148
That doesn't make me the headline
76
00:03:18,149 --> 00:03:19,349
in some yellow sheet.
77
00:03:19,350 --> 00:03:22,385
- That makes me an American.
- Quite true...
78
00:03:22,386 --> 00:03:25,021
Which is why they're
ignoring the poverty angle
79
00:03:25,022 --> 00:03:26,562
and focusing on your first marriage.
80
00:03:29,860 --> 00:03:31,494
You need to leave.
81
00:03:31,495 --> 00:03:33,530
Thank you, Mrs. Slayton.
82
00:03:33,531 --> 00:03:35,532
I think I got what I need.
83
00:03:35,533 --> 00:03:37,400
Oh, yeah? What's that?
84
00:03:37,401 --> 00:03:39,335
A photo we can run the story with.
85
00:03:50,493 --> 00:03:57,764

86
00:03:57,855 --> 00:04:00,457
You must be excited for Gus' flight.
87
00:04:00,458 --> 00:04:03,693
Can't wait.
88
00:04:03,694 --> 00:04:09,466
Truthfully, I can't wait for it to be over.
89
00:04:09,467 --> 00:04:11,781
I know that I have been through
a hundred combat missions
90
00:04:11,782 --> 00:04:12,602
when Gus was in Korea,
91
00:04:12,603 --> 00:04:14,938
but I never had to watch
one of them on TV...
92
00:04:14,939 --> 00:04:17,707
With... him all over me...
93
00:04:17,708 --> 00:04:19,642
And then have to go out and talk
94
00:04:19,643 --> 00:04:22,245
to a sea of reporters.
95
00:04:22,246 --> 00:04:24,714
You were so calm during Alan's launch.
96
00:04:24,715 --> 00:04:26,583
How'd you do it?
97
00:04:28,886 --> 00:04:31,054
This can be off the record.
98
00:04:31,055 --> 00:04:33,356
Say whatever you want.
99
00:04:35,326 --> 00:04:38,328
I refuse to waste time worrying.
100
00:04:38,329 --> 00:04:41,264
I have faith.
101
00:04:41,265 --> 00:04:44,467
Well... Trying to do that, believe me.
102
00:04:44,468 --> 00:04:47,770
And when I'm awake and
keeping busy, I'm okay.
103
00:04:47,772 --> 00:04:49,839
The second I close my eyes...
104
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:51,841
You have to fight those feelings.
105
00:04:51,842 --> 00:04:55,478
As soon as you let them in,
they take root and take hold.
106
00:04:55,479 --> 00:04:57,614
You know, there are some...
107
00:04:57,615 --> 00:04:59,349
Schools of thought that
say that it's better
108
00:04:59,350 --> 00:05:00,917
to acknowledge your fears,
109
00:05:00,918 --> 00:05:02,952
get them out in the open.
110
00:05:02,953 --> 00:05:04,487
You keep them bottled up inside,
111
00:05:04,488 --> 00:05:05,855
they turn into other things.
112
00:05:05,856 --> 00:05:08,091
- Like bad dreams?
- Nightmares, yeah.
113
00:05:08,092 --> 00:05:09,759
Repression is what they call it.
114
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,928
- It's a key concept...
- I should check if the girls want a snack.
115
00:05:11,929 --> 00:05:14,097
Alice, Julie.
116
00:05:16,834 --> 00:05:19,702
It's often expressed
through avoidance and denial.
117
00:05:21,505 --> 00:05:23,692
I think I see what you're
getting at, Mr. Kaplan,
118
00:05:23,693 --> 00:05:25,488
but if Gus knows that
I'm worried about him,
119
00:05:25,489 --> 00:05:26,609
then he'll worry about me.
120
00:05:26,610 --> 00:05:27,877
So I just need to keep like Louise
121
00:05:27,878 --> 00:05:30,513
and... put a lid on it.
122
00:05:40,825 --> 00:05:42,292
Mr. Pantos?
123
00:05:46,530 --> 00:05:48,231
Thank you for meeting me.
124
00:05:48,232 --> 00:05:50,366
You here to give me a quote?
125
00:05:50,367 --> 00:05:53,403
No.
126
00:05:53,404 --> 00:05:55,838
$200.
127
00:05:55,840 --> 00:05:57,560
I don't know how much they're paying you
128
00:05:57,561 --> 00:06:00,243
to look into my past, but...
129
00:06:00,244 --> 00:06:02,545
This is my rainy day money.
130
00:06:02,546 --> 00:06:05,181
I'd say it's pouring right about now.
131
00:06:05,182 --> 00:06:08,051
Please take it and tell me
you didn't find anything.
132
00:06:08,052 --> 00:06:10,186
Keep your money.
133
00:06:11,889 --> 00:06:14,257
And bring me a real story.
134
00:06:14,258 --> 00:06:16,559
Something I can shop to the papers.
135
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,229
Something no one knows
about Grissom's flight
136
00:06:19,230 --> 00:06:20,630
or John Glenn's.
137
00:06:20,631 --> 00:06:23,099
Public's crazy for that guy.
138
00:06:23,100 --> 00:06:26,736
Captain Slayton doesn't
talk to me about his work.
139
00:06:26,737 --> 00:06:28,871
That doesn't surprise me.
140
00:06:28,873 --> 00:06:31,908
But I suspect you're a resourceful woman.
141
00:06:43,991 --> 00:06:46,059
Freud's theory of repression?
142
00:06:46,060 --> 00:06:48,294
Don't think I don't know
that was meant for me.
143
00:06:48,296 --> 00:06:49,462
You're the one
144
00:06:49,463 --> 00:06:52,899
who wrote the article with my name on it.
145
00:06:52,900 --> 00:06:56,803
If the whole wide world
thinks that I'm perfect,
146
00:06:56,804 --> 00:06:59,673
it's because you told them I was.
147
00:06:59,674 --> 00:07:01,674
I wrote that article because
it was the right thing
148
00:07:01,675 --> 00:07:03,209
for the magazine and the space program,
149
00:07:03,210 --> 00:07:05,779
- not to mention because you asked me to.
- Order up!
150
00:07:05,780 --> 00:07:07,414
But that's for the public.
151
00:07:07,415 --> 00:07:09,115
It might have been nice for Betty to hear
152
00:07:09,116 --> 00:07:10,650
that a little fear is normal
153
00:07:10,651 --> 00:07:12,285
when your husband's up in space.
154
00:07:12,286 --> 00:07:14,588
And you and the Russian lady
are the only ones in the world
155
00:07:14,589 --> 00:07:16,022
who could do that.
156
00:07:16,023 --> 00:07:18,591
Of course, that would
require you acknowledging
157
00:07:18,593 --> 00:07:20,093
that you're a human being with emotions.
158
00:07:20,094 --> 00:07:23,296
Forget it. I don't even know why I'm here.
159
00:07:23,297 --> 00:07:26,666
I certainly don't care
what you think of me.
160
00:07:28,736 --> 00:07:30,770
You're doing that on purpose.
161
00:07:30,771 --> 00:07:33,039
You mad at me?
162
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,308
I'm just minding my own
business enjoying a Reuben.
163
00:07:35,309 --> 00:07:37,410
You tracked me down.
164
00:07:42,083 --> 00:07:45,285
It'd be nice if we could
stay here a little longer.
165
00:07:45,286 --> 00:07:46,753
Wish we could be here for the launch.
166
00:07:46,754 --> 00:07:49,789
You know how it is. Protocol.
167
00:07:49,790 --> 00:07:52,125
No wives in Florida during missions.
168
00:07:52,126 --> 00:07:53,560
Something bad happens,
169
00:07:53,561 --> 00:07:56,262
best if crying women are a few states away.
170
00:07:56,263 --> 00:07:58,732
Not that anything bad's gonna happen.
171
00:08:00,768 --> 00:08:04,504
Wait. Ice cubes. Ice cubes.
172
00:08:04,505 --> 00:08:07,273
Mark, Scotty, leave that thing be.
173
00:08:11,012 --> 00:08:13,113
I see we've got ourselves an Astro fan.
174
00:08:15,683 --> 00:08:17,550
Son, I was wondering if
you wouldn't mind doing me
175
00:08:17,551 --> 00:08:18,785
a small favor?
176
00:08:18,786 --> 00:08:20,487
I was just telling my wife Betty
177
00:08:20,488 --> 00:08:23,123
that I was feeling an
urge to sign an autograph.
178
00:08:23,124 --> 00:08:25,592
Would you mind if I signed one for you?
179
00:08:29,897 --> 00:08:31,598
Hi. Xavier...
180
00:08:31,599 --> 00:08:34,567
I had to bring my boy
with me to work today.
181
00:08:34,568 --> 00:08:35,699
- I'm so sorry.
- Ma'am...
182
00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:37,103
If you've been picking
up my husband's socks
183
00:08:37,104 --> 00:08:38,204
these past few months,
184
00:08:38,205 --> 00:08:39,539
he should be apologizing to you.
185
00:08:40,908 --> 00:08:42,375
You'll make a fine astronaut someday.
186
00:08:42,376 --> 00:08:44,244
- Me, sir?
- Yeah. You keep up that homework,
187
00:08:44,245 --> 00:08:49,015
especially the math, you'll get there.
188
00:08:49,016 --> 00:08:51,217
Well, we'll see about that.
189
00:08:51,218 --> 00:08:53,753
I'm working real hard to grow him up right.
190
00:08:53,754 --> 00:08:56,890
I'm not too keen on the idea
of launching him into space.
191
00:08:56,891 --> 00:08:57,924
I-I don't like...
192
00:08:57,925 --> 00:09:00,560
I... Oh. Uh, uh,
193
00:09:00,561 --> 00:09:02,929
- I don't mean anything by that. I...
- No.
194
00:09:02,930 --> 00:09:05,598
It's okay. It is very dangerous.
195
00:09:05,599 --> 00:09:07,801
But if someone's gonna do it,
196
00:09:07,802 --> 00:09:09,636
it's gonna be the best man for the job,
197
00:09:09,637 --> 00:09:13,573
and that's my Gus.
198
00:09:13,574 --> 00:09:14,607
Oh.
199
00:09:14,608 --> 00:09:16,209
Ma'am.
200
00:09:17,611 --> 00:09:19,979
You sure neither of you will join me?
201
00:09:19,980 --> 00:09:21,347
I hate drinking alone.
202
00:09:21,348 --> 00:09:22,515
No, thank you. We'll pass.
203
00:09:22,516 --> 00:09:24,083
That's what I love about you two.
204
00:09:24,085 --> 00:09:25,485
The squeaky-clean image.
205
00:09:25,486 --> 00:09:27,520
Ah, that's just who we are.
206
00:09:27,521 --> 00:09:29,155
That's what I mean. You don't stop.
207
00:09:29,156 --> 00:09:30,790
That being said,
208
00:09:30,791 --> 00:09:32,959
with your launch coming after Gus',
209
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,995
we need to talk about the
public relations challenges
210
00:09:35,996 --> 00:09:38,198
that may occur when it's your turn.
211
00:09:38,199 --> 00:09:41,267
Well, you... You mean... you mean me.
212
00:09:41,268 --> 00:09:43,136
No, no, of course not.
213
00:09:43,137 --> 00:09:45,738
I... know what p... people say.
214
00:09:45,740 --> 00:09:47,707
Give her time to prepare.
215
00:09:47,708 --> 00:09:49,409
Don't throw Annie any curve balls.
216
00:09:49,410 --> 00:09:51,010
She'll have some sentences ready.
217
00:09:51,011 --> 00:09:53,079
- Without the...
- No stutter.
218
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,783
They may want more than
prepared statements.
219
00:09:56,784 --> 00:09:58,318
There might be questions.
220
00:09:58,319 --> 00:10:01,421
A w-w-woman knows wh-when to shut up.
221
00:10:01,422 --> 00:10:04,290
America w-will love me.
222
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,128
See? Like I said, she's gonna be fine.
223
00:10:12,299 --> 00:10:14,534
- So you're still working.
- Yeah.
224
00:10:14,535 --> 00:10:16,636
I'll call you later, okay?
225
00:10:16,637 --> 00:10:19,038
They're sure keeping you busy down there.
226
00:10:19,039 --> 00:10:21,074
The program must really need you.
227
00:10:21,075 --> 00:10:22,842
I guess they do.
228
00:10:22,843 --> 00:10:25,211
Maybe some of those
things that we talked about
229
00:10:25,212 --> 00:10:27,080
keeping in the past...
230
00:10:27,081 --> 00:10:29,082
maybe it wouldn't be such a big deal
231
00:10:29,083 --> 00:10:30,950
if those things came out.
232
00:10:30,951 --> 00:10:32,752
Trust me, it'd be a big deal.
233
00:10:34,321 --> 00:10:35,789
Listen, I gotta go, red.
234
00:10:35,790 --> 00:10:37,257
Okay. Bye.
235
00:10:50,271 --> 00:10:53,306
I love you, Gus Grissom.
236
00:10:53,307 --> 00:10:56,042
I love you, too, hon.
237
00:10:56,043 --> 00:10:58,778
You let me run the house
exactly the way I want.
238
00:10:58,779 --> 00:11:01,014
You don't tell me how to do my job.
239
00:11:01,015 --> 00:11:03,349
I don't tell you how to do yours.
240
00:11:03,350 --> 00:11:07,787
If I disagree with someone,
you always take my side.
241
00:11:07,788 --> 00:11:09,522
You're pretty much always right.
242
00:11:10,558 --> 00:11:13,660
And even if you're not, you're my wife.
243
00:11:13,661 --> 00:11:17,964
You don't call me crazy or lazy or dumb.
244
00:11:17,965 --> 00:11:21,267
Not to my face or to anyone.
245
00:11:21,268 --> 00:11:23,469
- Bets...
- What?
246
00:11:23,470 --> 00:11:25,038
A lot of husband do. Don't say different.
247
00:11:25,039 --> 00:11:26,272
You know you've heard it.
248
00:11:29,476 --> 00:11:32,679
You're a good father.
249
00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:36,416
You're a loyal husband.
250
00:11:36,417 --> 00:11:39,619
And you're my best friend.
251
00:11:40,988 --> 00:11:43,489
And you're mine.
252
00:11:49,897 --> 00:11:51,297
I'm done now.
253
00:11:51,298 --> 00:11:54,968
Well, maybe we're just getting started.
254
00:11:56,237 --> 00:11:59,339
Here you go, bug.
255
00:11:59,340 --> 00:12:01,407
You know, if this whole astronaut thing
256
00:12:01,408 --> 00:12:02,608
doesn't work out,
257
00:12:02,610 --> 00:12:04,744
I've definitely got a
future in collage making.
258
00:12:08,349 --> 00:12:11,517
Hey, mom, did you know that your friend Dot
259
00:12:11,518 --> 00:12:13,953
won the all-women
transcontinental air race?
260
00:12:13,954 --> 00:12:18,358
Dot won? Good for her.
261
00:12:18,359 --> 00:12:21,094
Well, we were training together.
262
00:12:21,095 --> 00:12:24,998
So... You might have won?
263
00:12:24,999 --> 00:12:26,332
Maybe.
264
00:12:26,333 --> 00:12:28,501
Why do they call it the "Powderpuff Derby"?
265
00:12:28,502 --> 00:12:30,503
It's because they wanna make it seem
266
00:12:30,504 --> 00:12:32,238
like it's not important, but it is.
267
00:12:32,239 --> 00:12:34,307
All right, come on. Let's get you to bed.
268
00:12:34,308 --> 00:12:35,641
I'll be in to say good night
269
00:12:35,643 --> 00:12:38,811
to you and your sister.
270
00:12:40,414 --> 00:12:42,749
Trudy, I know you feel
like you're missing out,
271
00:12:42,750 --> 00:12:44,784
but what you're doing is important, too.
272
00:12:44,785 --> 00:12:46,586
Don't.
273
00:12:46,587 --> 00:12:48,187
You know better than that.
274
00:12:48,188 --> 00:12:49,555
Sorry. I...
275
00:12:49,556 --> 00:12:52,926
then stop trying to
kiss me and try talking.
276
00:12:52,927 --> 00:12:55,495
Catch me up on everything that's
been going on down at the cape,
277
00:12:55,496 --> 00:12:57,563
like the tests on the new hand controls,
278
00:12:57,564 --> 00:12:58,798
for starters.
279
00:12:58,799 --> 00:13:00,500
They work. No problemo.
280
00:13:00,501 --> 00:13:03,136
Okay. Well, how about
the compensation issue
281
00:13:03,137 --> 00:13:04,971
created by adding the window?
282
00:13:04,972 --> 00:13:07,206
Come on. I gotta talk about this stuff
283
00:13:07,207 --> 00:13:08,508
with the guys all week.
284
00:13:08,509 --> 00:13:11,444
Last night before I head
out, I just wanna be at home
285
00:13:11,445 --> 00:13:13,780
with my girls and see your smiling face.
286
00:13:13,781 --> 00:13:17,183
Do I look like I'm smiling?
287
00:13:21,722 --> 00:13:22,989
Here.
288
00:13:22,990 --> 00:13:24,357
Fold your own socks.
289
00:13:31,646 --> 00:13:32,846
Mrs. Shepard, this way, please.
290
00:13:32,847 --> 00:13:34,314
Mrs. Shepard, did you bake those cookies
291
00:13:34,315 --> 00:13:35,482
when your husband went into space?
292
00:13:35,483 --> 00:13:36,683
Mrs. Shepard, can we get a picture of you?
293
00:13:36,684 --> 00:13:38,185
- Mrs. Glenn!
- Mrs. Cooper!
294
00:13:38,186 --> 00:13:40,053
- ...about the launch.
- I'm not answering any questions.
295
00:13:40,054 --> 00:13:41,755
This is Gus and Betty Grissom's day.
296
00:13:41,756 --> 00:13:42,956
Thank you.
297
00:13:44,526 --> 00:13:47,060
What do you have there, Mrs. carpenter?
298
00:13:47,061 --> 00:13:49,029
Oh, uh, I'm bringing a new dish.
299
00:13:49,030 --> 00:13:51,131
It's called Chinese chicken salad.
300
00:13:51,132 --> 00:13:54,368
It's got cashews.
301
00:13:57,438 --> 00:14:01,441
...By Gus Grissom on July 15th.
302
00:14:01,442 --> 00:14:03,176
Welcome.
303
00:14:04,314 --> 00:14:06,115
Hi there.
304
00:14:06,116 --> 00:14:07,216
Mr. Kaplan.
305
00:14:07,217 --> 00:14:08,350
Mrs. Shepard.
306
00:14:08,351 --> 00:14:09,536
...synonymous with freedom.
307
00:14:09,537 --> 00:14:12,539
Mrs. Slayton, any news?
308
00:14:12,540 --> 00:14:15,675
Uh, not at this time, no.
309
00:14:15,676 --> 00:14:17,377
Thanks for sharing.
310
00:14:17,378 --> 00:14:19,212
Thank you.
311
00:14:19,213 --> 00:14:21,381
Well, Gus told the cops
that I didn't want my yard
312
00:14:21,382 --> 00:14:23,583
looking like the Shepards',
so where are they now?
313
00:14:23,584 --> 00:14:25,418
They're watching TV at the station.
314
00:14:25,419 --> 00:14:27,888
Oh, also Max thinks that
it will feel more real
315
00:14:27,889 --> 00:14:29,522
if my house looks like a pigsty.
316
00:14:29,524 --> 00:14:32,159
I just, I can't wait for this to be over.
317
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,828
Gus is gonna be great,
and with that window,
318
00:14:34,829 --> 00:14:38,498
he's gonna be the first man to
really see the earth from space.
319
00:14:38,499 --> 00:14:40,467
We are getting reports from N.A.S.A.
320
00:14:40,468 --> 00:14:41,701
That there is a delay.
321
00:14:41,702 --> 00:14:44,662
It seems that one of the titanium bolts
322
00:14:44,663 --> 00:14:47,831
- around the hatch...
- Countdown is halted. Word from N.A.S.A.
323
00:14:47,832 --> 00:14:52,236
Is that a mechanical issue is
being addressed as we speak.
324
00:14:53,521 --> 00:14:55,689
Waiting is the worst part.
325
00:14:55,690 --> 00:14:58,091
I hope so.
326
00:14:58,092 --> 00:15:01,628
Are y... y-y-you okay?
327
00:15:01,629 --> 00:15:03,764
- Shoot!
- Oh.
328
00:15:03,765 --> 00:15:06,733
Now you're gonna have to
write that I got so worked up,
329
00:15:06,734 --> 00:15:09,269
- I broke an egg.
- I won't write anything of the sort.
330
00:15:09,270 --> 00:15:12,840
You could faint right now,
and the article would say
331
00:15:12,841 --> 00:15:16,076
that you are the epitome
of reserved strength.
332
00:15:16,077 --> 00:15:19,179
In other words, Max will
channel your inner primly stable.
333
00:15:19,180 --> 00:15:20,314
Primly stable?
334
00:15:20,315 --> 00:15:21,815
Rene, you gotta do it.
335
00:15:21,816 --> 00:15:23,483
- Oh, stop.
- Oh, come on.
336
00:15:23,484 --> 00:15:25,619
All right.
337
00:15:25,620 --> 00:15:28,889
I never had any doubt
that my husband squarely
338
00:15:28,890 --> 00:15:32,192
would be home in time to
try my new omelet recipe.
339
00:15:32,193 --> 00:15:35,495
I watched and prayed
with much contentedness
340
00:15:35,496 --> 00:15:38,632
as he hurtled through
space, firm in my belief
341
00:15:38,633 --> 00:15:40,901
that he would like the ham and onion
342
00:15:40,902 --> 00:15:44,404
even more than he likes
the mushroom and cheese.
343
00:15:47,976 --> 00:15:49,943
Who's that supposed to be?
344
00:15:49,944 --> 00:15:52,735
Oh. Hon, it's not you.
345
00:15:52,736 --> 00:15:55,638
It's what N.A.S.A. Expects us to be...
346
00:15:55,639 --> 00:15:57,995
Which... You may embody... Slightly.
347
00:15:57,996 --> 00:15:59,494
Oh, it's just for fun.
348
00:15:59,495 --> 00:16:01,396
That's very amusing.
349
00:16:01,397 --> 00:16:02,892
Betty?
350
00:16:02,893 --> 00:16:05,027
Everyone, the countdown started again.
351
00:16:08,999 --> 00:16:12,935
10... 9... 8...
352
00:16:12,936 --> 00:16:15,104
7...
353
00:16:15,105 --> 00:16:18,474
6... 5... 4...
354
00:16:18,475 --> 00:16:21,076
3... 2...
355
00:16:21,077 --> 00:16:22,545
1.
356
00:16:22,546 --> 00:16:25,347
Zero. Ignition. Liftoff.
357
00:16:25,348 --> 00:16:30,452
And the clock has started. We have liftoff.
358
00:16:35,992 --> 00:16:37,493
We should be getting a report
359
00:16:37,494 --> 00:16:39,495
of re-entry activity at this time.
360
00:16:41,598 --> 00:16:46,268
He is at 65,000 feet on his way down.
361
00:16:46,269 --> 00:16:48,070
50,000 feet.
362
00:16:48,071 --> 00:16:50,439
He's going through some clouds.
363
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:51,707
And we have confirmation
364
00:16:51,708 --> 00:16:53,609
that Gus Grissom has landed in the water,
365
00:16:53,610 --> 00:16:55,477
and a helicopter has been dispatched.
366
00:16:55,512 --> 00:16:58,380
Oh! Looks like somebody's
going to the White House!
367
00:16:58,381 --> 00:16:59,982
We need glasses.
368
00:16:59,983 --> 00:17:01,417
We have to celebrate!
369
00:17:01,451 --> 00:17:03,352
We should get official confirmation
370
00:17:03,353 --> 00:17:05,688
that Gus Grissom has
come into the helicopter
371
00:17:05,689 --> 00:17:07,089
at any moment now.
372
00:17:12,696 --> 00:17:14,863
I saw that man talk to you outside.
373
00:17:14,865 --> 00:17:16,598
What man?
374
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:18,285
The same one who was at your house
375
00:17:18,286 --> 00:17:19,518
when we were playing euchre.
376
00:17:19,519 --> 00:17:22,559
He looks like trouble.
377
00:17:24,362 --> 00:17:26,031
Is he a black sheep family member?
378
00:17:26,032 --> 00:17:27,809
- What... no, he's not.
- Do you owe him money?
379
00:17:27,810 --> 00:17:28,944
For what? Jo.
380
00:17:28,945 --> 00:17:31,246
Are you having an a-f-f-a-i-r?
381
00:17:31,247 --> 00:17:32,748
No.
382
00:17:36,653 --> 00:17:39,054
He works for one of
those tabloid magazines.
383
00:17:39,055 --> 00:17:41,056
Oh, my.
384
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:45,761
What kind of unsavory
information might come out?
385
00:17:45,762 --> 00:17:47,496
Use your imagination.
386
00:17:47,497 --> 00:17:50,770
But the only way this
guy will kill the story
387
00:17:50,771 --> 00:17:52,734
if I give him some sort of
classified information...
388
00:17:52,735 --> 00:17:58,640
Which I wouldn't do, which is the problem.
389
00:17:58,641 --> 00:18:01,410
Deke's finally on deck, and...
390
00:18:01,411 --> 00:18:03,245
Jo, I gotta fix this.
391
00:18:03,246 --> 00:18:05,814
Well... It's not like "the Navy wife"
392
00:18:05,815 --> 00:18:09,334
has a chapter on blackmail, but...
393
00:18:09,335 --> 00:18:12,271
Growing up the stepdaughter of an admiral,
394
00:18:12,272 --> 00:18:15,540
I learned that the military
looks after its own.
395
00:18:15,541 --> 00:18:17,776
You should talk to Dunk Porter.
396
00:18:17,777 --> 00:18:19,945
Isn't that like asking the principal
397
00:18:19,946 --> 00:18:21,429
to help you skip school?
398
00:18:21,430 --> 00:18:22,664
It's his job to make sure
399
00:18:22,665 --> 00:18:25,367
we all get presented in public
in the best light possible.
400
00:18:25,368 --> 00:18:27,269
Everyone's waiting on glasses.
401
00:18:27,270 --> 00:18:29,271
We're on our way.
402
00:18:32,709 --> 00:18:35,038
I am now hearing that there is some trouble
403
00:18:35,039 --> 00:18:36,090
with the "Liberty Bell."
404
00:18:36,091 --> 00:18:38,025
I repeat, there seems to be a problem
405
00:18:38,026 --> 00:18:40,093
with the space capsule.
406
00:18:40,094 --> 00:18:43,329
Reports are coming in that
the hatch has blown prematurely
407
00:18:43,330 --> 00:18:46,466
and the capsule is filling with water.
408
00:18:46,467 --> 00:18:48,301
The helicopter cable has broken,
409
00:18:48,302 --> 00:18:52,538
and the "liberty bell" capsule
is sinking into the ocean.
410
00:18:52,539 --> 00:18:54,874
No word yet on the status of Gus Grissom.
411
00:18:58,038 --> 00:19:00,866
Astronaut Gus Grissom remains in the water.
412
00:19:02,525 --> 00:19:05,461
Reports are spotty. There
is mixed information.
413
00:19:07,350 --> 00:19:09,284
Wait one second.
414
00:19:11,087 --> 00:19:12,538
We are hearing that a second helicopter
415
00:19:12,539 --> 00:19:16,442
is bringing Gus Grissom aboard.
416
00:19:16,443 --> 00:19:19,745
- He's gonna be fine.
- Yes, he is.
417
00:19:19,746 --> 00:19:21,313
I have confirmation that Gus Grissom
418
00:19:21,314 --> 00:19:23,315
has come into the
helicopter and is headed back
419
00:19:23,316 --> 00:19:25,017
to the "U.S.S. Randolph."
420
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,887
It's finally over.
421
00:19:30,957 --> 00:19:33,292
Your fans await you, doll.
422
00:19:33,293 --> 00:19:35,227
- Knock 'em dead.
- Okay.
423
00:19:42,035 --> 00:19:44,403
Here she comes, here she comes.
424
00:19:46,239 --> 00:19:48,040
Hi. I'm Betty Grissom.
425
00:19:48,041 --> 00:19:49,875
Thank you all for being here.
426
00:19:49,876 --> 00:19:51,810
I'm overjoyed that my husband is doing well
427
00:19:51,811 --> 00:19:53,612
and that his mission was a success and...
428
00:19:53,613 --> 00:19:55,247
Any idea why Gus opened the hatch early?
429
00:19:55,248 --> 00:19:56,915
- Yeah, yeah, why is that?
- Yeah, why would he do that, ma'am?
430
00:19:56,916 --> 00:20:00,486
Oh. Uh... Uh... I don't know.
431
00:20:00,487 --> 00:20:03,088
We heard that Gus was
tidying up the capsule
432
00:20:03,089 --> 00:20:04,122
when the hatch blew.
433
00:20:04,124 --> 00:20:05,824
Do you make him clean up at home?
434
00:20:05,825 --> 00:20:07,493
No, I...
435
00:20:07,494 --> 00:20:09,828
- That's a good point. - I take care
of everything on the homefront.
436
00:20:09,829 --> 00:20:10,963
The capsule cost millions.
437
00:20:10,964 --> 00:20:12,898
All the flight data is lost.
438
00:20:12,899 --> 00:20:15,701
Mrs. Grissom, over here. One more question!
439
00:20:17,404 --> 00:20:19,104
It's a mess.
440
00:20:19,105 --> 00:20:22,875
What do you think he dug up?
441
00:20:22,876 --> 00:20:24,409
Who knows?
442
00:20:28,148 --> 00:20:31,016
My father worked for the railroad.
443
00:20:31,017 --> 00:20:32,918
He was a drunk, violent.
444
00:20:32,919 --> 00:20:36,255
My mother loved him, but not soon enough.
445
00:20:36,256 --> 00:20:40,192
Everyone loves a good
rags-to-riches story.
446
00:20:45,432 --> 00:20:48,734
I also lived in Japan
for a number of years...
447
00:20:48,735 --> 00:20:50,068
When I was single.
448
00:20:50,069 --> 00:20:53,105
I was working as a secretary,
449
00:20:53,106 --> 00:20:55,541
but I know how it sounds.
450
00:20:55,542 --> 00:20:59,111
It is very unusual for an unmarried woman
451
00:20:59,112 --> 00:21:00,646
to work overseas.
452
00:21:00,647 --> 00:21:03,749
I lived there after I left my husband.
453
00:21:03,750 --> 00:21:05,317
My first husband.
454
00:21:06,986 --> 00:21:08,353
I'm divorced.
455
00:21:12,258 --> 00:21:14,126
Look, I made a mistake...
456
00:21:14,127 --> 00:21:16,195
a big one, but I fixed it.
457
00:21:16,196 --> 00:21:18,764
And nothing that I did before I met Deke
458
00:21:18,765 --> 00:21:20,666
should ever hurt him.
459
00:21:22,101 --> 00:21:28,040
Don't you worry, Mrs. Slayton.
460
00:21:28,041 --> 00:21:31,543
This article will never
see the light of day.
461
00:21:34,981 --> 00:21:36,582
Thank you.
462
00:21:36,583 --> 00:21:39,117
Thank you very much.
463
00:21:39,118 --> 00:21:40,852
Well, this should be fun.
464
00:21:40,854 --> 00:21:43,522
We haven't flown together in a while.
465
00:21:43,523 --> 00:21:47,125
Question is, who's the
pilot? Who's in the jump seat?
466
00:21:47,126 --> 00:21:50,429
Um, that's not the
question. You flew last time.
467
00:21:50,430 --> 00:21:52,998
Oh. How about we flip for it?
468
00:21:52,999 --> 00:21:54,466
No. It's my turn.
469
00:21:54,467 --> 00:21:57,803
I don't recall agreeing to taking turns.
470
00:21:57,804 --> 00:22:00,839
Oh, you don't agree to
turns. Turns are what's fair.
471
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,208
Fair? Whoever told you life was fair?
472
00:22:03,209 --> 00:22:05,344
Well, it seems pretty fair to you.
473
00:22:05,345 --> 00:22:08,246
You got your wife back.
You get to go into space.
474
00:22:08,248 --> 00:22:09,848
Name once in your life
475
00:22:09,849 --> 00:22:11,917
when you haven't gotten
exactly what you want.
476
00:22:11,918 --> 00:22:14,019
How about right now when I
wanna go flying with my wife
477
00:22:14,020 --> 00:22:15,354
and have a nice time?
478
00:22:15,355 --> 00:22:18,123
And it'll only be nice if
I'm sitting next to you,
479
00:22:18,124 --> 00:22:19,258
staring out the window?
480
00:22:19,259 --> 00:22:21,293
Oh, come on. I'm headed
off to Australia soon.
481
00:22:21,294 --> 00:22:23,695
You really wanna leave things like this?
482
00:22:23,696 --> 00:22:25,163
Give me that quarter.
483
00:22:25,164 --> 00:22:27,966
You gonna flip?
484
00:22:27,967 --> 00:22:30,235
I'm calling Jo to pick me up.
485
00:22:30,236 --> 00:22:33,338
Phone call only costs a dime!
486
00:22:33,339 --> 00:22:35,841
I expect the change!
487
00:22:40,313 --> 00:22:42,314
What is this place again?
488
00:22:42,315 --> 00:22:43,382
I told you.
489
00:22:43,383 --> 00:22:46,685
N.A.S.A. Got us a beach house as a reward
490
00:22:46,686 --> 00:22:49,121
for me going up into space.
491
00:22:49,122 --> 00:22:50,556
It's for V.I.P.'s
492
00:22:50,557 --> 00:22:54,126
It's very private. We've
been driving for an hour.
493
00:22:54,127 --> 00:22:56,929
I think they just wanted
to do something nice.
494
00:22:58,264 --> 00:23:01,333
To make up for us not going to Washington.
495
00:23:04,070 --> 00:23:06,772
We're not invited to the White House?
496
00:23:06,773 --> 00:23:08,674
Gus, why?
497
00:23:08,675 --> 00:23:10,275
You didn't do anything wrong.
498
00:23:10,276 --> 00:23:11,877
I know.
499
00:23:11,878 --> 00:23:14,146
Everybody knows.
500
00:23:19,118 --> 00:23:21,553
There's gonna be an investigation.
501
00:23:21,554 --> 00:23:25,390
An investigation? About what?
502
00:23:25,391 --> 00:23:28,060
I-if you said the hatch just popped,
503
00:23:28,061 --> 00:23:29,861
the hatched just popped. You're not a liar.
504
00:23:29,862 --> 00:23:33,198
No one's saying I am, okay?
But N.A.S.A.'s government.
505
00:23:33,199 --> 00:23:34,626
They got their own way of doing things.
506
00:23:34,627 --> 00:23:37,936
Oh, yeah. Protocol. Right.
507
00:23:37,937 --> 00:23:38,970
You know what?
508
00:23:38,972 --> 00:23:41,457
Why don't we just turn the car around
509
00:23:41,458 --> 00:23:43,559
and go back to your room at the motel?
510
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,695
Bets, you haven't even seen the place.
511
00:23:45,696 --> 00:23:47,797
I don't want to. I don't want anything
512
00:23:47,798 --> 00:23:50,566
from anybody that thinks
you're a hatch-popping liar.
513
00:23:50,567 --> 00:23:53,135
- They're trying to be nice.
- Nice?
514
00:23:55,973 --> 00:23:57,707
You don't wanna be here?
515
00:23:57,708 --> 00:24:00,976
I'll take you and the
boys back to the motel.
516
00:24:00,978 --> 00:24:05,915
And then I'll head down to the cape.
517
00:24:21,527 --> 00:24:23,528
How was your day?
518
00:24:29,936 --> 00:24:32,304
What's that French girl doing on the cover?
519
00:24:32,305 --> 00:24:33,705
It was supposed to be you.
520
00:24:33,706 --> 00:24:35,640
Story's inside...
521
00:24:35,641 --> 00:24:40,645
After a photo essay on
the runnin' of the bulls.
522
00:24:45,483 --> 00:24:47,685
Jell-o salad.
523
00:24:50,889 --> 00:24:53,490
- Scotty, what happened to your shirt?
- Nothing.
524
00:24:53,491 --> 00:24:55,426
- It's ripped.
- I said it was nothing.
525
00:24:55,427 --> 00:24:58,629
If it's nothin', then why are you so upset?
526
00:25:01,066 --> 00:25:03,300
Are you gonna be a part
of this conversation?
527
00:25:04,903 --> 00:25:07,871
Tell me what happened.
528
00:25:09,374 --> 00:25:11,809
Kid at school. He said
dad had screwed the pooch,
529
00:25:11,810 --> 00:25:14,311
so I socked him.
530
00:25:14,312 --> 00:25:15,813
Then he socked me.
531
00:25:30,662 --> 00:25:33,597
...Clean hair without water...
532
00:25:33,598 --> 00:25:35,733
Sew it up for you good as new.
533
00:25:37,135 --> 00:25:40,704
And that kid better look
worse than your shirt.
534
00:25:43,852 --> 00:25:45,094
N.A.S.A. Has decided that
535
00:25:45,095 --> 00:25:46,729
John Glenn is going all the way,
536
00:25:46,730 --> 00:25:48,164
all the way around the earth
537
00:25:48,165 --> 00:25:50,867
in the United States'
first orbital mission.
538
00:25:50,868 --> 00:25:52,869
An orbital mission is crucial
539
00:25:52,870 --> 00:25:54,508
if we're going to catch up to the Russians,
540
00:25:54,509 --> 00:25:57,173
and Colonel John Glenn is
just the man for the job.
541
00:25:57,174 --> 00:26:00,710
A decorated war hero and
supersonic record holder,
542
00:26:00,711 --> 00:26:03,913
his flight is sure to be
the most impressive...
543
00:26:03,914 --> 00:26:07,784
You'll always be first.
No one can take that away.
544
00:26:07,785 --> 00:26:10,787
It was 15 minutes. I didn't have a window.
545
00:26:10,788 --> 00:26:13,223
And what you did was more daring,
546
00:26:13,224 --> 00:26:15,258
more dangerous because of it.
547
00:26:15,259 --> 00:26:17,660
There were so many unknowns.
548
00:26:23,334 --> 00:26:28,238
Alan, I should have told
you at the time, but...
549
00:26:28,239 --> 00:26:31,508
When you were up there...
550
00:26:31,509 --> 00:26:33,242
Well, the truth is I wasn't...
551
00:26:33,244 --> 00:26:35,445
it's gonna be hell for that wife of his.
552
00:26:35,446 --> 00:26:37,981
At least I don't have to
worry about that with you.
553
00:26:49,193 --> 00:26:53,196
I am so... proud...
554
00:26:53,197 --> 00:26:56,432
Of my husband...
555
00:26:56,433 --> 00:26:59,469
And my country.
556
00:27:00,804 --> 00:27:06,509
Thank you all for your support...
557
00:27:06,510 --> 00:27:09,278
God...
558
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,147
Bless...
559
00:27:11,148 --> 00:27:13,383
America.
560
00:27:15,853 --> 00:27:17,053
Mrs. Cooper!
561
00:27:18,889 --> 00:27:19,956
Mrs. Slayton!
562
00:27:19,957 --> 00:27:21,290
- Hello.
- Good morning.
563
00:27:21,292 --> 00:27:22,859
- Excuse me!
- Thank you.
564
00:27:22,860 --> 00:27:24,861
It's my double Decker tuna loaf.
565
00:27:24,862 --> 00:27:26,362
Smoky cocktail weenies.
566
00:27:26,363 --> 00:27:27,730
Tater tots surprise.
567
00:27:27,731 --> 00:27:29,499
N.A.S.A. Will track John Glenn's orbit
568
00:27:29,500 --> 00:27:32,769
from 16 land-based stations
and two air force ships...
569
00:27:32,770 --> 00:27:36,673
one in the Indian ocean
and one in the pacific...
570
00:27:36,674 --> 00:27:38,541
- You doing okay?
- Mm-hmm.
571
00:27:38,542 --> 00:27:39,576
You?
572
00:27:39,577 --> 00:27:42,545
The investigation's taking forever.
573
00:27:42,546 --> 00:27:44,714
It's eating Gus up.
574
00:27:44,715 --> 00:27:46,015
...the Capcom, or "Capsule Communicator"
575
00:27:46,016 --> 00:27:47,650
in California.
576
00:27:47,651 --> 00:27:50,320
Grissom's in Bermuda, and
Cooper is all the way over
577
00:27:50,321 --> 00:27:52,622
- in Australia... - I wonder what
it feels like in zero gravity.
578
00:27:52,623 --> 00:27:55,873
- Must be amazing.
- I heard they think
579
00:27:55,874 --> 00:27:57,441
that his eyeballs might
float out of his head.
580
00:27:57,442 --> 00:27:59,573
We now hear that N.A.S.A.
Has announced that the mission
581
00:27:59,574 --> 00:28:01,275
has been scrubbed due to
poor weather conditions.
582
00:28:01,276 --> 00:28:03,010
Oh, Annie.
583
00:28:03,011 --> 00:28:04,711
...launch will be rescheduled,
584
00:28:04,712 --> 00:28:05,913
- but we will keep you updated...
- I'm sorry.
585
00:28:05,914 --> 00:28:07,181
...as we know more.
586
00:28:07,182 --> 00:28:08,749
Pack it up, boys.
587
00:28:08,750 --> 00:28:10,350
This time's over.
588
00:28:16,090 --> 00:28:18,025
Glenn residence.
589
00:28:20,195 --> 00:28:23,864
Annie, it's Vice
President Johnson's office.
590
00:28:23,865 --> 00:28:26,400
I'm afraid Mrs. Glenn can't
come to the phone right now.
591
00:28:26,401 --> 00:28:29,202
Is there a message I might relay to her?
592
00:28:31,172 --> 00:28:33,474
He says he's sorry about the delay.
593
00:28:33,475 --> 00:28:34,875
He knows how disappointed you must be.
594
00:28:34,876 --> 00:28:36,276
Uh...
595
00:28:36,277 --> 00:28:38,579
She says that's very kind.
596
00:28:44,552 --> 00:28:46,353
Oh.
597
00:28:48,823 --> 00:28:51,858
He's on his way here so he can comfort you.
598
00:28:51,860 --> 00:28:53,660
Vice President Johnson?
599
00:28:53,661 --> 00:28:57,798
He's c-c-coming... coming h-h-here?
600
00:28:57,799 --> 00:28:59,299
Yeah, and he's got camera crews
601
00:28:59,300 --> 00:29:00,901
from all three networks with him.
602
00:29:00,902 --> 00:29:03,103
He wants to film the two
of you talking together.
603
00:29:12,013 --> 00:29:15,749
You could just tell him the
truth about your condition.
604
00:29:15,750 --> 00:29:17,417
I'm sure he'd understand.
605
00:29:17,418 --> 00:29:20,988
You don't have a choice.
606
00:29:24,559 --> 00:29:26,628
It's one of his aides.
607
00:29:26,629 --> 00:29:28,130
I'll talk to him.
608
00:29:28,131 --> 00:29:30,432
Don't go anywhere. We can fix this.
609
00:29:30,433 --> 00:29:32,801
Look, don't worry about the stutter.
610
00:29:32,802 --> 00:29:34,369
We'll just tell the Vice President
611
00:29:34,370 --> 00:29:36,605
that you're overcome with emotion.
612
00:29:36,606 --> 00:29:40,142
He'll hug you. He'll be
happy. America will be happy.
613
00:29:40,143 --> 00:29:45,347
I'm n-not h-happy. I
have... have a headache.
614
00:29:45,348 --> 00:29:47,991
He's not just the V.P. The
space program is his baby.
615
00:29:47,992 --> 00:29:49,346
How's it gonna look on TV today
616
00:29:49,347 --> 00:29:50,880
with yet another failure to launch?
617
00:29:50,881 --> 00:29:52,615
The country needs to see that you're okay
618
00:29:52,616 --> 00:29:53,683
so that they can be okay.
619
00:29:53,684 --> 00:29:55,151
Annie, do whatever you want.
620
00:29:55,152 --> 00:29:57,130
They're all using us as pawns.
621
00:29:57,131 --> 00:29:59,366
They'll cut you out as
fast as they'll claim you.
622
00:29:59,367 --> 00:30:00,801
Whatever makes them look good.
623
00:30:00,802 --> 00:30:02,636
What do you think N.A.S.A. Will
do to John if Annie says no?
624
00:30:02,637 --> 00:30:04,071
So we're just supposed to spend our lives
625
00:30:04,072 --> 00:30:05,160
worrying about N.A.S.A.?
626
00:30:05,161 --> 00:30:06,395
Yes, that's what we signed up for.
627
00:30:06,396 --> 00:30:08,356
But don't we have some
right to some privacy here?
628
00:30:14,037 --> 00:30:17,873
I h-h-h-h-have to call John.
629
00:30:17,874 --> 00:30:22,208
First it's fuel tanks,
now it's damn clouds.
630
00:30:22,209 --> 00:30:24,143
Do you have any idea how
many people around the world
631
00:30:24,144 --> 00:30:26,778
are talking about how
badly we messed up again?
632
00:30:26,779 --> 00:30:29,223
Nobody messed up, Jim.
We made the right call.
633
00:30:29,224 --> 00:30:31,158
John's on the phone with Annie.
634
00:30:31,159 --> 00:30:32,659
L.B.J. Wants to come over
with a bunch of reporters,
635
00:30:32,660 --> 00:30:33,994
and she's saying no.
636
00:30:33,995 --> 00:30:35,328
Well, he better to tell her to say yes
637
00:30:35,329 --> 00:30:38,565
if he actually wants to go up one day.
638
00:30:41,836 --> 00:30:43,804
He's got camera crews?
639
00:30:43,805 --> 00:30:46,373
Tell her to let him in now.
640
00:30:46,374 --> 00:30:47,808
How do you feel about that?
641
00:30:47,809 --> 00:30:49,109
Who cares how she feels?!
642
00:30:49,110 --> 00:30:53,647
If she doesn't let Johnson
in that house now...
643
00:30:53,648 --> 00:30:55,882
I'll find somebody else
to take your flight.
644
00:30:55,883 --> 00:30:59,719
Annie...
645
00:30:59,721 --> 00:31:01,399
Do you want Vice President Johnson
646
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:02,800
to come in?
647
00:31:04,269 --> 00:31:06,470
No.
648
00:31:08,140 --> 00:31:09,673
Then don't let him in.
649
00:31:09,674 --> 00:31:13,110
But wh...
650
00:31:13,111 --> 00:31:14,812
Wh-wh-what about you?
651
00:31:16,314 --> 00:31:18,482
Oh. Don't worry about me.
652
00:31:18,483 --> 00:31:21,051
I'll be fine.
653
00:31:24,289 --> 00:31:25,823
I love you.
654
00:31:25,824 --> 00:31:29,693
I-I-I l-love you, too.
655
00:31:32,565 --> 00:31:35,066
Glenn, you're grounded.
656
00:31:37,764 --> 00:31:40,916
I-I-I don't have to l-let him in.
657
00:31:40,917 --> 00:31:44,435
Well, that's it. If
Annie and John don't want
658
00:31:44,436 --> 00:31:46,036
Vice President Johnson coming in,
659
00:31:46,037 --> 00:31:47,070
he's not coming in.
660
00:31:47,071 --> 00:31:48,639
I'll barricade the door if I have to.
661
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:49,773
I'll join you.
662
00:31:49,774 --> 00:31:51,743
- Me, too.
- And me.
663
00:31:51,744 --> 00:31:53,189
Using a chair under the door knob
664
00:31:53,190 --> 00:31:55,825
is actually more effective.
665
00:31:55,826 --> 00:31:57,159
I could grab one and do that.
666
00:32:00,530 --> 00:32:03,699
The only thing worse than
Glenn making history today
667
00:32:03,700 --> 00:32:06,702
is... not making anything at all.
668
00:32:06,703 --> 00:32:10,906
Well, the weather can't
stay like this forever.
669
00:32:10,907 --> 00:32:14,276
Hey, can you still get Gordo,
Gus, and Wally on the radio?
670
00:32:14,277 --> 00:32:16,312
- Why?
- We need to talk.
671
00:32:18,515 --> 00:32:20,616
I'm giving your flight to Carpenter.
672
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,889
I'm sorry, sir. I'm not
gonna take John's place.
673
00:32:26,890 --> 00:32:28,858
Fine. There's five more
where you two came from.
674
00:32:28,859 --> 00:32:30,693
I'm afraid not. All of us.
675
00:32:30,694 --> 00:32:32,394
We're united in this.
676
00:32:32,395 --> 00:32:34,129
Even...
677
00:32:35,098 --> 00:32:38,034
Shepard? And Slayton?
678
00:32:38,902 --> 00:32:41,170
- Are you kidding me?
- No joke, Jim.
679
00:32:41,171 --> 00:32:44,006
Gordo, Gus, and Wally said
they'd stand with us, too.
680
00:32:44,007 --> 00:32:45,407
You don't have to do this.
681
00:32:45,408 --> 00:32:49,211
Yeah. Yeah, we do.
682
00:32:49,212 --> 00:32:52,348
They do it to one of us,
they'll do it to all of us.
683
00:32:55,385 --> 00:32:57,786
Eat your egg, John.
684
00:33:10,467 --> 00:33:13,168
You came down here all by yourself?
685
00:33:15,238 --> 00:33:16,739
That's...
686
00:33:16,740 --> 00:33:19,208
I wasn't expecting you.
687
00:33:19,209 --> 00:33:20,976
I know.
688
00:33:20,977 --> 00:33:22,611
Things haven't been
right since you went up,
689
00:33:22,612 --> 00:33:25,948
and I just... I can't take it anymore.
690
00:33:33,523 --> 00:33:37,426
I gotta show you something.
691
00:33:42,465 --> 00:33:45,167
This is what they didn't show on the news.
692
00:33:47,571 --> 00:33:51,874
My space suit was half full of water.
693
00:33:51,875 --> 00:33:54,343
You know I'm not much of a
swimmer at the best of times.
694
00:33:54,344 --> 00:33:58,580
The newsmen didn't say anything
about you nearly drownin'.
695
00:33:58,582 --> 00:34:00,449
They're trying to save the capsule
696
00:34:00,450 --> 00:34:03,319
and completely ignoring you.
697
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,255
Every time the "Liberty
Bell" hit the surface,
698
00:34:06,256 --> 00:34:10,626
the... water would get choppy.
699
00:34:10,627 --> 00:34:15,064
I went under a couple times.
700
00:34:20,837 --> 00:34:22,404
But you know what kept me going?
701
00:34:25,175 --> 00:34:27,543
Everything you said to me that night.
702
00:34:29,846 --> 00:34:32,815
Hell if I was gonna let you down, Bets.
703
00:34:32,816 --> 00:34:36,382
Gus... If it were me in your shoes,
704
00:34:36,383 --> 00:34:40,319
and you believed me, that's
all that would matter.
705
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,689
The investigation, N.A.S.A., the press...
706
00:34:43,690 --> 00:34:47,960
It's nothing compared to you and me.
707
00:34:57,537 --> 00:35:03,909
The only regret I have
is that this whole mess...
708
00:35:03,910 --> 00:35:08,580
it's meant you didn't get
what should've been yours.
709
00:35:08,581 --> 00:35:11,950
Dinner with Jackie... A parade.
710
00:35:11,951 --> 00:35:13,318
None of that matters.
711
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,488
Although a parade would've been nice.
712
00:35:30,203 --> 00:35:32,271
The launch delays continue.
713
00:35:32,272 --> 00:35:34,840
A fuel leak has been reported.
714
00:35:54,627 --> 00:35:56,361
With the Russians having orbited the earth
715
00:35:56,362 --> 00:35:57,763
in its first two flights,
716
00:35:57,764 --> 00:35:59,798
and Gus Grissom's capsule lost at sea,
717
00:35:59,799 --> 00:36:04,469
the U.S. needs this mission more than ever.
718
00:36:07,841 --> 00:36:11,376
Finally, three months after
the original launch date,
719
00:36:11,377 --> 00:36:13,979
the "Friendship 7" takes off into space.
720
00:36:13,980 --> 00:36:16,548
Roger. The launch is
operating. We're underway.
721
00:36:16,549 --> 00:36:18,550
Reading you loud and clear.
722
00:36:18,551 --> 00:36:21,153
John Glenn orbited the earth
723
00:36:21,154 --> 00:36:24,456
for 4 hours and 55 minutes.
724
00:36:24,457 --> 00:36:27,092
And although there were a few concerns
725
00:36:27,093 --> 00:36:28,527
about the heat shield,
726
00:36:28,528 --> 00:36:30,929
he splashed down just 40 miles short
727
00:36:30,930 --> 00:36:31,997
of the intended landing zone.
728
00:36:31,998 --> 00:36:33,966
"Friendship 7," do you read me?
729
00:36:33,967 --> 00:36:35,267
Yes, loud and clear.
730
00:36:35,268 --> 00:36:38,237
And now the nation finally celebrates
731
00:36:38,238 --> 00:36:40,572
with a ticker tape parade in New York City.
732
00:36:43,943 --> 00:36:45,177
Thanks for coming out.
733
00:36:45,178 --> 00:36:46,378
Certainly.
734
00:36:46,379 --> 00:36:47,813
Congratulations, John.
735
00:36:47,814 --> 00:36:49,081
Coming through.
736
00:36:49,082 --> 00:36:52,651
Annie, thanks so much for
making sure we all got included.
737
00:36:52,652 --> 00:36:55,355
The guys... h-had J-John's back.
738
00:36:55,356 --> 00:36:57,590
- The girls h-had mine.
- Mrs. Grissom?
739
00:36:57,592 --> 00:37:00,119
Mrs. Glenn? We need to
get you into your cars.
740
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,187
Oh! And we're in the third car,
741
00:37:02,189 --> 00:37:05,157
- right behind the Shepards.
- Where the hell is Mrs. Cooper?
742
00:37:05,158 --> 00:37:06,225
- They cleared me.
- What?
743
00:37:06,226 --> 00:37:07,593
They finished the investigation.
744
00:37:07,594 --> 00:37:09,591
It is officially a fact that
if I had blown that hatch,
745
00:37:09,592 --> 00:37:11,006
my hand would have been all black and blue.
746
00:37:11,007 --> 00:37:12,640
It was the external release lanyard.
747
00:37:12,641 --> 00:37:15,310
Well, I don't know what
that is, but I love it.
748
00:37:17,346 --> 00:37:19,481
Betty?
749
00:37:19,482 --> 00:37:21,616
- You look beautiful.
- Like my dress?
750
00:37:21,617 --> 00:37:23,218
Means a lot coming from you.
751
00:37:23,219 --> 00:37:24,586
I wanted you to know...
752
00:37:24,587 --> 00:37:26,521
You held up better at Gus' launch
753
00:37:26,522 --> 00:37:27,989
than I did at Alan's.
754
00:37:29,394 --> 00:37:31,790
Louise, the sooner this thing starts,
755
00:37:31,791 --> 00:37:33,792
the sooner it's over with.
756
00:37:34,606 --> 00:37:36,039
What's up with your wife?
757
00:37:36,041 --> 00:37:37,040
Hell if I know.
758
00:37:37,042 --> 00:37:38,942
Can get these guys into space.
759
00:37:38,943 --> 00:37:41,378
Can't get 'em into a couple convertibles.
760
00:37:41,379 --> 00:37:44,982
Ready? One... Two... Three!
761
00:37:44,983 --> 00:37:46,150
Whoo!
762
00:37:47,585 --> 00:37:48,852
Oh, Mr. Porter. Oh...
763
00:37:48,853 --> 00:37:50,986
I just wanted to say thank you
764
00:37:50,987 --> 00:37:53,185
for handling my, um, my problem.
765
00:37:53,186 --> 00:37:55,688
I never heard from that
guy or the magazine again.
766
00:37:55,689 --> 00:37:57,723
You're welcome. I did what I had to do.
767
00:37:57,724 --> 00:37:59,792
You didn't...
768
00:37:59,793 --> 00:38:02,028
I didn't kill him, Mrs. Slayton.
769
00:38:02,029 --> 00:38:04,530
I threatened to have
his P.I. license yanked.
770
00:38:04,531 --> 00:38:07,066
We're N.A.S.A., not the mob.
771
00:38:10,404 --> 00:38:12,805
Let's go, Marge.
772
00:38:16,577 --> 00:38:18,844
The next parade is gonna be for you.
773
00:38:20,347 --> 00:38:22,949
I'm here.
774
00:38:22,950 --> 00:38:24,380
Don't start.
775
00:38:24,381 --> 00:38:25,865
I know that some of
the normal wifely duties
776
00:38:25,866 --> 00:38:26,808
are off the table,
777
00:38:26,809 --> 00:38:28,143
but showing up on time for a parade
778
00:38:28,144 --> 00:38:30,945
doesn't seem like too much to ask.
779
00:38:30,947 --> 00:38:31,913
Gordo...
780
00:38:31,914 --> 00:38:35,075
I came back because you have the chance
781
00:38:35,076 --> 00:38:37,177
to do the impossible...
782
00:38:37,178 --> 00:38:39,346
leave the earth, fly in space,
783
00:38:39,347 --> 00:38:41,215
get to the moon one day.
784
00:38:41,216 --> 00:38:43,384
John saw the sun rise and set three times
785
00:38:43,385 --> 00:38:45,119
in five hours.
786
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,388
I wanna be a part of that.
787
00:38:47,389 --> 00:38:49,056
I don't mean anything bad by this,
788
00:38:49,057 --> 00:38:52,059
but you're not an astronaut.
789
00:38:52,060 --> 00:38:54,228
You're an astronaut's wife.
790
00:38:54,229 --> 00:38:56,463
It's nothing I did. It's nothing you did.
791
00:38:56,464 --> 00:38:59,099
It's just... How it is.
792
00:39:00,568 --> 00:39:03,337
Come on, babe. We're almost there.
793
00:39:30,532 --> 00:39:32,032
Oh!
794
00:39:43,011 --> 00:39:45,712
With this orbit, the U.S. has caught up.
795
00:39:45,713 --> 00:39:48,204
The space race is neck and neck,
796
00:39:48,205 --> 00:39:50,307
and the prize can be ours.
797
00:39:50,308 --> 00:39:55,178
World War II ace pilot
Deke Slayton will be next.
798
00:40:01,218 --> 00:40:04,821
Deke! Come look at these
photos of the parade.
799
00:40:06,891 --> 00:40:08,491
How many times
800
00:40:08,492 --> 00:40:10,660
do I have to tell you to
keep the driveway clear?
801
00:40:10,661 --> 00:40:12,362
I nearly ran over this thing.
802
00:40:12,363 --> 00:40:13,863
And if you actually had,
803
00:40:13,864 --> 00:40:16,032
we would have bought another one.
804
00:40:16,033 --> 00:40:18,662
It's a toy. What's with you?
805
00:40:18,663 --> 00:40:21,398
We need to keep things
in their place, okay?
806
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:23,702
We need to clean up after ourselves.
807
00:40:23,703 --> 00:40:25,804
Are you drunk?
808
00:40:38,184 --> 00:40:40,085
Deke?
809
00:40:43,757 --> 00:40:45,190
I'm grounded.
810
00:40:48,401 --> 00:40:50,236
Taking my flight away.
811
00:40:52,878 --> 00:40:54,271
What?
812
00:40:55,730 --> 00:40:57,063
Why?
813
00:40:57,542 --> 00:40:59,146
Why would they do that to you?
814
00:41:06,514 --> 00:41:16,211
