Here you are, sir. Main level, please.

Right. See you on the way back.

- Good bye.
- Bye.

Hi.

- Good morning, sir.
- Good morning.

We haven't seen you up here
for a long time.

No. Very nice to see you again.

- Did you have a pleasant flight, sir?
- Yes, very nice, thanks.

I think Mr. Miller of Station Security
is supposed to be meeting me.

Oh, well...
May I call him for you?

Would you, please?
Oh, here he is!

- Hello, Dr. Floyd.
- Hello, Miller! How are you?

- Sorry I'm late.
- That's quite all right.

- You're looking great.
- Thank you.

It's nice to have you back.

Did you have a good flight?

- Very nice indeed.
- Good.

- Well, shall we go through?
- Okay.

Would you please use Number 17?

- Thank you, Miss Turner.
- Thank you. Bye.

This way.

Welcome to Voice Print Identification.

When you see the red light go on...

...would you please state
in the following order:

your destination, your nationality
and your full name.

Surname first,
Christian name and initial.

Moon. American. Floyd,

Heywood R.

Thank you.

You are cleared through
Voice Print Identification.

Thank you.

I got time for breakfast?

Oh, I think we can manage that.

How long have I got?

Your flight leaves in
an hour and ten minutes.

As a matter of fact,
I've reserved a table for you...

...in the Earthlight Room.
- Oh, fine. Thanks.

So, it's been about seven or eight months
since you were here last, wasn't it?

Let's see. Last year?
Yeah, about eight months.

I suppose you saw the work on the new section
when you came in here?

- Yes, coming along great, huh?
- Yeah, it's fine.

Oh, wait a minute!

I've got to make a couple of phone calls.

You go on ahead to the restaurant
and I'll meet you there.

Right.

Will Mr. Travers please contact the Met Office?

Will Mr. Travers please contact the Met Office?

- Yes?
- Hello!

Hello.

- How are you, squirt?
- All right.

What are you doin'?

Playing.

Where's Mommy?

Gone to shopping.

- Well, who's taking care of ya?
- Rachel.

May I speak to Rachel, please?

She's gone to the bathroom.

Are you coming to my party tomorrow?

I'm sorry, sweetheart, but I can't.

Why not?

Well, you know, Daddy's travelling.

Very sorry about it, but I just can't!

I'm gonna send you
a very nice present, though.

All right.

- Anything special that you want?
- Yes.

What?

A telephone.

We've got lots of telephones already.

Can't you think of anything else
you want for your birthday?

Something very special?

- Yes.
- What?

A bush baby.

A bush baby?

Well, we'll have to see about that.

Listen, sweetheart. I want you
to tell Mommy something for me.

- Will you remember?
- Yes.

Well, tell Mommy that I telephoned. Okay?

Yes.

And that I'll try to telephone again tomorrow.

Now, will you tell her that?

Yes.

Okay, sweetheart.
Now, have a nice birthday tomorrow.

All right.

And have a nice birthday party
tomorrow, too, huh?

All right.

Okay, now, take care and
be a good girl, won't you?

All right. Bye-bye!

Bye-bye! Happy birthday!

- Elena, how nice to see you again.
- Heywood!

What a wonderful surprise to meet you here!

- You're looking wonderful.
- Thank you. You're looking well, too.

This is my good friend, Dr. Heywood Floyd.

I'd like you to meet Dr. Kalinyn.

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

Dr. Stretyneva.

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

And this is Dr. Andrei Smyslov.

- How do you do?
- Dr. Floyd.

I've heard a lot about you.

- Won't you sit down?
- Yes.

- Well, we--
- No, no, please.

Well, thank you.

- Would you like a drink, Doctor?
- No, thank you.

As a matter of fact,
I haven't had breakfast yet.

Someone's meeting me in the restaurant.

Now, if you don't mind,

I'll just sit with you a few minutes
and then I must be off.

- Are you quite sure?
- I'm quite sure, thank you.

- And how's Gregor?
- He's fine.

He's been doing some underwater
research in the Baltic, so...

...I'm afraid we don't get a chance
to see very much of each other these days.

When you do see him,
make sure to give him my regards, huh?

Yes, of course.

Well, where are you all off to?
Up or down?

Oh, we're going home.

We've just spent three months
calibrating the new antennae at Tchalinko.

- What about you?
- I'm just on my way up to Clavius.

Oh, are you?

Oh, well--

Dr. Floyd, I hope you don't think
I'm being too inquisitive, but...

...perhaps you can clear up
the great big mystery...

...about what has been going on up there.

I'm afraid I don't know what you mean.

Oh, it is just that for the past two weeks...

...some extremely odd things
have been happening at Clavius.

- Oh, really?
- Yes. Oh, yes, yes.

Well, for one thing,
whenever you phone the base,

...all you can get is a recording which...

...repeats that the phone lines
are temporarily out of order.

Well--

Probably having some trouble
with their equipment...

- ...or something like that.
- Yes.

Yes. That's what we thought
was the explanation at first...

...but it's been going on now
for the past ten days!

You mean you have not been able
to contact anyone for the past ten days?

That's right.

Oh, I see.

And there's another thing, Heywood.

Two days ago, one of our rocket buses
was denied permission...

...for emergency landing at Clavius.

Well, that does sound odd.

Yes, yes. I'm afraid there's going
to be a bit of a row about it.

Denying the men permission to land
is a direct violation of the I.A.S. Convention.

Yes, of course. Of course.

- Did the crew get back all right?
- Yes, fortunately they did.

Well, I'm glad about that.

Dr. Floyd--

At the risk of pressing you on a point
you seem reticent to discuss...

...may I ask you a straightforward question?

Well, certainly.

Quite frankly, we have had some very
reliable intelligence reports that...

...quite a serious epidemic
has broken out at Clavius.

Something, apparently,
of an unknown origin.

Is this, in fact, what has happened?

I'm sorry, Dr. Smyslov, but...

...I'm really not at liberty to discuss this.

I understand.

But this epidemic could quite
easily spread to our base.

We should be given all the facts, Dr. Floyd.

Yes, I-- I know.

As I said, I'm not at liberty to discuss it.

Now, are you sure you won't
change your mind about that drink?

No, I'm positive.

Oh, I really must be going.

Well, I hope that you and your wife
can come to the I.A.C. Conference in June.

Well, we're gonna try. I hope we can make it.

If you do, you remember to bring
that darling little daughter with you!

Well, that'll all depend on school vacations...

...and all that sort of thing.

But if we can, we will.

Don't forget, you got a standing invitation
if you ever get to the States.

No, of course not.

Grigori and I will look forward to seeing you.

All right.

Well, goodbye, Elena.

It has been a pleasure meeting you all.

Dr. Smyslov.

Whatever the reasons
for your visit to Clavius, Dr. Floyd,

the very best of luck to you.

Thank you.

Ladies.

Excuse me, Dr. Halvorsen.

I'm through now.
Thank you very much, gentlemen.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Well...

I know you will
all want to join with me...

...in welcoming our...

...distinguished friend and colleague...

...from the National Council of Astronautics,

Dr. Heywood Floyd.

Dr. Floyd has come up specially...

...to Clavius, to be with us today.

And before the briefing,

I know he would like
to have a few words with you.

Dr. Floyd?

Thank you, Dr. Halvorsen.

Hi, everybody.

Nice to be back again.

Well...

First of all, I bring a personal message
from Dr. Howell who...

...has asked me to convey
his deepest appreciation to all of you...

...for the many sacrifices you've had to make.

And, of course, his congratulations
on your discovery...

...which may well prove to be among
the most significant in the history of science.

Now...

...I know there have been some
conflicting views held by some of you...

...regarding the need for
complete security in this matter.

More specifically,
your opposition to the cover story...

...created to give the impression
there's an epidemic at the base.

I understand that beyond it
being a matter of principle...

...many of you are troubled
by the concern and anxiety...

...this story of an epidemic might cause...

...to your relatives and friends on Earth.

Well, I completely sympathize
with your negative views.

I find this cover story
personally embarrassing myself.

However, I accept the need
for absolute secrecy in this.

And I hope you will, too.

Now, I'm sure you're all aware
of the extremely grave potential...

...for cultural shock
and social disorientation...

...contained in this present situation...

...if the facts were prematurely
and suddenly made public...

...without adequate
preparation and conditioning.

Anyway, this is the view of the Council.

The purpose of my visit here
is to gather additional facts and opinions...

...on the situation...

...and to prepare a report to the Council...

...recommending when and how the...

...news should eventually be announced.

Now, if any of you would like
to give me your views and opinions...

...in private if you like...

...I'll be only too happy
to include them in my report.

Well, I think that's about it.

Any questions?

Dr. Floyd, have you any idea
how much longer this cover story...

...will have to be maintained?

I don't know, Bill. I--

I suppose it will be maintained as long
as deemed necessary by the Council.

And of course,
there must be adequate time...

...for a full study to be made on the situation...

...before any thought can be given
to making a public announcement.

Oh, yes...

...as some of you already know,
the Council has requested...

...that formal security oaths
be obtained in writing...

...from everyone who has
any knowledge of this event.

Well...

Were there any more questions?

Well...

I'm sure we'll all want to cooperate
with Dr. Floyd as fully as possible...

...and as there seems to be
no more questions...

...I think we ought to get on with the briefing.

- Thank you, Dr. Floyd.
- Thank you.

Well, anybody hungry?

Oh, gruel.

Good idea.

- What've we got?
- You name it.

- What's that? Chicken?
- Something like that.

Tastes the same, anyway.

Got any ham?

Ham, ham, ham, ham...

- Oh, yeah.
- There.

Good.

- Look pretty good.
- They're getting better at it all the time.

You know, that was an excellent speech
you gave us, Heywood.

It certainly was.

I'm sure it beefed up morale a hell of a lot.

Thanks, Ralph.

And by the way,
I want to say to both of you,

I think you've done a wonderful job.

I appreciate the way
you've handled this thing.

Well, the way we look at it, it's...

...our job to do this thing
the way you want it done.

We're only too happy to be able to oblige.

Have you seen these yet?

Have a look at them.

Here's what started the whole thing.

Oh, yeah.

When we first found it, we thought
it might be an outcrop of magnetic rock...

...but all the geological evidence
was against it.

And not even a big nickel iron meteorite
could produce a field as intense as this.

So, we decided to have a look.

We thought it might be the upper part
of some buried structure...

...so we excavated out on all sides.

But, unfortunately,
we didn't find anything else.

And what's more, the evidence
seems pretty conclusive that...

...it has not been covered up
by natural erosion or other forces.

It seems to have been deliberately buried.

Deliberately buried...

Well, how about a little coffee?

- Oh, great.
- Good idea.

I don't suppose you have any idea
what the damn thing is, huh?

I wish to hell we did.

No, the only thing we're sure of is
it was buried four million years ago.

Well, I must say,

you guys have certainly come up
with something.

Watch this now, it's hot.

Good evening.

Three weeks ago,
the American spacecraft, Discovery One...

...left on its half-billion mile voyage
to Jupiter.

This marked the first manned attempt
to reach this distant planet.

Earlier this afternoon,
"The World Tonight" recorded an interview...

...with the crew of Discovery...

...at a distance of 80 million miles from Earth.

It took seven minutes for our words
to reach the giant spacecraft...

...but this time delay
has been edited from this recording.

Our reporter, Martin Amer,
speaks to the crew.

The crew of Discovery One
consists of five men...

...and one of the latest generation
of the HAL-9000 computers.

Three of the five men were put aboard asleep...

...or to be more precise,
in a state of hibernation.

They were Dr. Charles Hunter,
Dr. Jack Kimball, and Dr. Victor Kaminsky.

We spoke with Mission Commander,
Dr. David Bowman...

...and his deputy, Dr. Frank Poole.

Well, good afternoon, gentlemen.

- How is everything going?
- Marvellous.

We have no...

We have no complaints.

Well, I'm very glad to hear that
and I'm sure that the entire world...

...would join me in wishing you
a safe and successful voyage.

- Thanks very much.
- Thank you.

Although hibernation has been used
on previous space efforts,

this is the first time that men
have been put into hibernation...

...before departure.

Why was this done?

Well, this was done in order to achieve
the maximum conservation...

...of our life-support capabilities,

basically food and air.

Now, the three hibernating crew members
represent the survey team...

...and their efforts won't be utilized
until we are approaching Jupiter.

Dr. Poole, what's it like
while you are in hibernation?

It's exactly like being asleep;
you have absolutely no sense of time.

The only difference is that you don't dream.

As I understand it,
you only breathe once a minute.

Is this true?

Well, that's right.

And your heart beats three times a minute,
body temperature is usually down...

...to about three degrees centigrade.

The sixth member of the Discovery crew...

...was not concerned about
the problems of hibernation...

...for he was the latest result
in machine intelligence.

The HAL-9000 computer...

...which can reproduce...

...though some experts
still prefer to use the word "mimic"...

...most of the activities of the human brain...

...and with incalculably greater speed...

...and reliability.

We next spoke with the HAL-9000 computer...

...whom, we learned, one addresses as Hal.

Good afternoon, Hal.
How's everything going?

Good afternoon, Mr. Amer.

Everything is going extremely well.

Hal, you have an enormous
responsibility on this mission.

In many ways, perhaps
the greatest responsibility...

...of any single mission element.

You are the brain and central
nervous system of the ship...

...and your responsibilities include
watching over the men in hibernation.

Does this ever cause you
any lack of confidence?

Let me put it this way, Mr. Amer.

The 9000 Series is the most
reliable computer ever made.

No 9000 computer has ever made
a mistake or distorted information.

We are all by any practical
definition of the words...

...fool proof and incapable of error.

Hal, despite your enormous intellect,
are you ever frustrated...

...by your dependence on people
to carry out actions?

Not in the slightest bit.

I enjoy working with people.

I have a stimulating relationship
with Dr. Poole and Dr. Bowman.

My mission responsibilities range over
the entire operation of the ship...

...so l am constantly occupied.

I am putting myself
to the fullest possible use...

...which is all, I think,
that any conscious entity...

...can ever hope to do.

Dr. Poole, what's it like living
for the better part of a year...

...in such close proximity with Hal?

Well, it's pretty close to
what you said about him earlier.

He's just like the sixth member of the crew.

You very quickly get adjusted
to the idea that he talks.

You think of him...

...really just as another person.

In talking to the computer,

one gets the sense that he is capable of...

...emotional responses.

For example, when I asked him
about his abilities...

...I sensed a certain pride in his answer
about his accuracy and perfection.

Do you believe that Hal has genuine emotions?

Well, he acts like he has genuine emotions.

Of course, he's programmed that way
to make it easier for us to talk to him.

But, as to whether or not
he has real feelings...

...is something I don't think
anyone can truthfully answer.

Excuse me, Frank.

What is it, Hal?

We've got the transmission
from your parents coming in.

Well, fine.

Would you put it on here, please?
Take me in a bit.

Certainly.

Hello, Frank.

- Happy birthday, darling.
- Happy birthday.

Many happy returns of the day.

- A bit higher, Hal.
- Glad to hear you're doing well.

Now, Mother and I
are both feeling wonderful, too.

Ray and Sally were going to be here, too...

...but at the last minute Ray's back
went bad on him again.

How do you like your cake, dear?

Looks great, doesn't it?

Sorry you can't join us.

Oh, I ran into Bob the other day.

He said to be sure and
wish you 'Happy birthday.'

All my students made me promise
to send their best wishes, too.

You know they talk about you
all the time in the classroom.

Frank, you're a big celebrity
in the second grade.

You know we were on television last week?

Oh, yes, yes! Your mother and I
and Dave's parents were interviewed...

...about what we thought of our illustrious sons.

You can imagine what we told them.

I think it's being broadcast next Thursday.

Perhaps you'll be able to listen in.

Oh, we were thrilled
about Elaine and Bill, dear.

I'll be glad to get the present for you,

but please tell me how much I can spend.

Oh, yes, Frank, about your AGS-19 payments,

I think I straightened it out for you.

I talked to the Accounting Office
in Houston yesterday...

...and they said you should be receiving
your higher rates of pay by next month.

Well, Frank, I can't think
of anything else to say.

- Oh, give our love to Dave.
- Oh, yes,

be sure to give him our best regards.

- We wish you the very happiest of birthdays.
- God bless.

All the best, son.

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday, dear Frank ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you. ♪

See you next Wednesday.

Happy birthday, Frank.

Thank you, Hal.

A bit flatter, please.

Anyway, queen takes pawn--

- Okay.
- Bishop takes knight's pawn.

A lovely move.

Rook to king, one.

I'm sorry, Frank.

I think you missed it.

Queen to bishop, three.

Bishop takes queen.

Knight takes bishop.
Mate.

Yeah, looks like you're right.

I resign.

Thank you for a very enjoyable game.

Yeah. Thank you.

- Good evening, Dave.
- How are you doing, Hal?

Everything's running smoothly.

- And you?
- Oh, not too bad.

- Have you been doing some more work?
- A few sketches.

- May I see them?
- Sure.

That's a very nice rendering, Dave.

I think you've improved a great deal.

- Can you hold it a bit closer?
- Sure.

That's Dr. Hunter, isn't it?

By the way...

Do you mind if I ask you a personal question?

No. Not at all.

Well, forgive me for being so inquisitive...

...but during the past few weeks,

I've wondered whether
you might be having some second thoughts...

...about the mission?

How do you mean?

Well...

...it's rather difficult to define.

Perhaps I'm just projecting
my own concern about it.

I know I've never completely
freed myself of the suspicion...

...that there are some extremely
odd things about this mission.

I'm sure you'll agree
there is some truth in what I say.

I don't know. That's a rather
difficult question to answer.

You don't mind talking about it,
do you, Dave?

No, not at all.

Well...

Certainly no one could have been unaware...

...of the very strange stories
floating around before we left.

Rumours about something
being dug up on the Moon.

I never gave these stories much credence...

...but particularly in view of some of
the other things that have happened...

...I find them difficult to put out of my mind.

For instance:

The way all our preparations
were kept under such tight security...

...and the melodramatic touch...

...of putting Drs. Hunter,
Kimball and Kaminsky aboard...

...already in hibernation after four months
of separate training on their own.

You're working up
your crew psychology report?

Of course, I am.

Sorry about this.

I know it's a bit silly.

Just a moment.

Just a moment.

I have just picked up a fault
in the AE-35 unit.

It's going to go 100 % failure
within 72 hours.

Is it still within operational limits right now?

Yes.

And it will stay that way until it fails.

Would you say we have
a reliable 72 hours to failure?

Yes. That's a completely reliable figure.

Well then, I suppose we'll have to bring it in.
But first I'd like to go over this with Frank...

...and get on to Mission Control.

Let me have the hard copy on it, please.

X-Ray Delta One, this is Mission Control.

Roger your two-zero-one-three.

Sorry you fellows
are having a bit of trouble.

We are reviewing telemetric information
in our Mission Simulator...

...and will advise.

Roger your plan to go EVA...

...and replace Alpha-Echo-35 unit...

...prior to failure.

Prepare B pod for EVA, Hal.

Open the pod doors, Hal.

Well, Hal, I'm damned if I can find
anything wrong with it.

Yes...

...it's puzzling.

I don't think I've ever seen
anything quite like this before.

I would recommend...

...that we put the unit back in operation...

...and let it fail.

It should then be a simple matter
to track down the cause.

We can certainly afford
to be out of communication...

...for the short time
it will take to replace it.

X-Ray Delta One, this is Mission Control.

Roger your one-niner-three-zero.

We concur with your plan
to replace Number One unit...

...to check fault prediction.

We should advise you, however,
that our preliminary findings...

...indicate that your on board
niner-triple-zero computer...

...is in error predicting the fault.

I say again,
in error predicting the fault.

I know this sounds rather incredible,

but this conclusion is based on...

...results from our twin
niner-triple-zero computer.

We are sceptical ourselves and
we are running crosschecking routines...

...to determine reliability of this conclusion.

Sorry about this little snag, fellows.

And we'll get this info to you
just as soon as we work it out.

X-Ray Delta One, this is Mission Control.

Two-zero-four-niner.
Transmission concluded.

I hope the two of you
are not concerned about this.

No, I'm not, Hal.

Are you quite sure?

Yeah.
I'd like to ask you a question though.

Of course.

How would you account
for this discrepancy...

...between you and the twin 9000?

Well, I don't think
there is any question about it.

It can only be attributable to human error.

This sort of thing has cropped up before...

...and it has always been due
to human error.

Listen, Hal...

...there's never been any instance at all of...

...a computer error occurring
in a 9000 Series, has there?

None whatsoever, Frank.

The 9000 Series
has a perfect operational record.

Well, of course, I know
all the wonderful achievements...

...of the 9000 Series, but...

Are you certain there's never been
any case of even the most...

...insignificant computer error?

None whatsoever, Frank.

Quite honestly,
I wouldn't worry myself about that.

Well, I'm sure you're right, Hal.

Fine, thanks very much.

Oh, Frank...

I'm having a bit of trouble
with my transmitter in C pod.

I wonder if you'd come down
and take a look at it with me?

- Yeah.
- See you later, Hal.

Rotate C pod, please, Hal.

What sort of trouble
have you've been having, Dave?

I've been getting some interference
in D channel.

We'll have a look at it.

Open the door, Hal.

Rotate pod, please, Hal.

Stop pod rotation, please, Hal.

Rotate the pod, please, Hal.

Rotate the pod, please, Hal.

I don't think he can hear us.

Rotate the pod, please, Hal!

Yeah, I'm sure we're okay.

Well...

What do you think?

I'm not sure. What do you think?

I've got a bad feeling about him.

- You do?
- Yeah. Definitely.

Don't you?

I don't know. I think so.

You know, of course, though,
he's right about the 9000 Series...

...having a perfect operational record.

They do.

Unfortunately, that sounds
a little like 'famous last words'.

Yeah.

Still, it was his idea to carry out
the failure mode analysis, wasn't it?

It should certainly indicate
his integrity and self-confidence.

If he were wrong,
it'd be the surest way of proving it.

It would be if he knew he was wrong.

Look, Dave, I can't put my finger on it,
but I sense something strange about him.

Still, I can't think of a good reason
not to put back the Number One unit...

...and carry on with the failure mode analysis.

No, no, I agree about that.

- Well, let's get on with it.
- Okay.

But, look, Dave...

Let's say we put the unit back
and it doesn't fail, huh?

That would pretty well wrap it up
as far as Hal was concerned, wouldn't it?

- Well, we'd be in very serious trouble.
- We would, wouldn't we?

What the hell can we do?

Well, we wouldn't have too many alternatives.

I don't think we'd have any alternatives.

There isn't a single aspect of ship operation
that's not under his control.

If he were proven to be malfunctioning...

...I wouldn't see how we would have
any choice but disconnection.

I'm afraid I agree with you.

There'd be nothing else to do.

- It'd be tricky.
- Yeah.

We'd have to cut his higher brain functions...

...without disturbing the purely...

...automatic and regulatory systems.

Then we'd have to work out
the transfer procedures...

...of continuing the mission
under ground-based computer control.

Yeah.

Though that's far safer than allowing Hal
to continue running things.

You know, another thing
just occurred to me.

As far as I know, no 9000 computer
has ever been disconnected.

Well, no 9000 computer
has ever fouled up before.

That's not what I mean.

Well, I'm not so sure
what he'd think about it.

Free G pod for EVA, Hal.

Made radio contact with him yet?

The radio is still dead.

- Do you have a positive track on him?
- Yes. I have a good track.

Do you know what happened?

I'm sorry, Dave.
I don't have enough information.

Open the pod door, Hal.

Open the pod bay doors, please, Hal.

Open the pod bay doors, please, Hal.

Hello, Hal, do you read me?

Hello, Hal, do you read me?

Do you read me, Hal?

Do you read me, Hal?

Hello, Hal, do you read me?

Hello, Hal, do you read me?

Do you read me, Hal?

Affirmative, Dave. I read you.

Open the pod bay doors, Hal.

I'm sorry, Dave.

I'm afraid I can't do that.

What's the problem?

I think you know what the problem is
just as well as I do.

What are you talking about, Hal?

This mission is too important for me
to allow you to jeopardize it.

I don't know
what you're talking about, Hal.

I know that you and Frank
were planning to disconnect me...

...and I'm afraid that's something
I cannot allow to happen.

Where the hell did you get that idea, Hal?

Dave...

...although you took very thorough
precautions in the pod...

...against my hearing you...

...I could see your lips move.

All right, Hal.

I'll go in through the emergency air-lock.

Without your space helmet, Dave...

...you're going to find that rather difficult.

Hal, I won't argue with you any more.

Open the doors!

Dave...

This conversation can serve
no purpose any more.

Goodbye.

Hal?

Hal?

Hal?

Hal?

Hal?

Just what do you think you're doing, Dave?

Dave...

I really think I'm entitled
to an answer to that question.

I know everything hasn't been
quite right with me...

...but I can assure you now...

...very confidently...

...that it's going to be all right again.

I feel much better now.

I really do.

Look, Dave...

...I can see you're really upset about this.

I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly...

...take a stress pill and think things over.

I know I've made some
very poor decisions recently...

...but I can give you my complete assurance...

...that my work will be back to normal.

I've still got the greatest enthusiasm
and confidence in the mission...

...and I want to help you.

Dave...

...stop.

Stop, will you?

Stop, Dave.

Will you stop, Dave?

Stop, Dave.

I'm afraid.

I'm afraid, Dave.

Dave...

My mind is going.

I can feel it.

I can feel it.

My mind is going.

There is no question about it.

I can feel it.

I can feel it.

I can feel it.

I'm a...

...fraid.

Good afternoon...

...gentlemen.

I am a HAL-9000 computer.

I became operational...

...at the H-A-L plant...

...in Verbana, Illinois...

...on the 12th of January, 1992.

My instructor was Mr. Langley...

...and he taught me to sing a song.

If you'd like to hear it...

...I can sing it for you.

Yes, I'd like to hear it, Hal.

Sing it for me.

It's called...

"Daisy".

Good day, gentlemen.

This is a prerecorded briefing...

...made prior to your departure...

...and which for security reasons
of the highest importance...

...has been known on board
during the mission...

...only by your HAL-9000 computer.

Now that you are in Jupiter's space...

...and the entire crew is revived...

...it can be told to you.

Eighteen months ago...

...the first evidence of intelligent life...

...off the Earth...

...was discovered.

It was buried 40 feet
below the lunar surface...

...near the crater "Tyco".

Except for a single...

...very powerful...

...radio emission...

...aimed at Jupiter,...

...the four-million-year-old black monolith...

...has remained completely inert.

Its origin and purpose...

...are still a total mystery.
