You better get going.

What? No good luck kiss for the captain, Captain?

I'm about to make history here.

You know you want to, Reese.

No, I know you want to.

I think we'd last longer as friends, Jimmy.

So at least you're not saying no way, then.

Just like a kid, aren't you?

I was taken maybe straight to the bank.

You're starting to remind me a little of someone I used to know.

Not a bad thing, is it?

I'm not sure.

I think we deserve a pat on the back, don't you?

Hey, check this out.

Hey!

Corbett Aviation. And the first 100 % automatic pilot flight in history.

Doc, well done, everyone.

Thank you all so much.

Drink up, Tammy.

Hey, come on, Gabriel. Drink up, man. You deserve it.

Do your thing.

Okay, we have takeoff sequence.

Do you copy, Seattle Tower?

We copy, Genesis Center.

So did you bring anything to read?

Yeah, really. If this thing works, we may be out of jobs.

We have one, two, three, four.

Check list up.

Levels are good.

And airborne.

I did it.

I did it. Thanks to you.

Congratulations, sir.

Wow. This is good assimilation. I'm passenger and pilot on the same flight.

Do we look at the systems?

This can't be right.

Senator, we appear to have a situation here. What is it? What's happening?

Not sure.

System failure. It's all shut down on us here, guys.

What? That's impossible.

Disengage from the computer.

I already have.

It's my fault. Alan, as soon as we're back on, restore main. Tammy, keep

the backup systems. I'll try manual override.

No good, Jimmy. Nothing works.

We have no control.

Jesus. We're going down.

We're going down hard.

We're going down.

Shannon, come in.

We don't control.

Nothing works.

We're going down.

The problem is you've got a lot of weight there. I don't know if it's going

go.

Yeah, I'm more concerned about trying to get that one.

It's quite possible.

How could this happen?

You said we were ready.

We were.

Look, Mr. Corbett, it's too early to start speculating about what actually

caused the crash. This was a computer -controlled aircraft.

What else could it be? Pilot error?

You heard those guys up there. They had no idea what was happening. They had no

control. I get it now.

I'm the invisible man around here until something goes wrong.

Stop being paranoid.

In case you've forgotten, two people just died.

Yeah, well, maybe you forgot my designer system, but you own it, and you signed

up on it.

Mr. Anthony, I did it.

Get out of here. You're fired.

You can't do that. I have a contract. And I just fought you out.

And you'll be lucky if I don't sue you for 50 times that amount by the time the

dust has settled.

You slimy... Do you have any idea what working for you has already cost me?

If I were you, I'd start looking for another line of work.

Maybe you can get a job gathering wool at a sheep farm down in Oz, which is

where I should have left you in the first place. Get out of my way. Hey,

easy.

Mr. Corbett.

Excuse me.

A couple of questions, if I could.

I am not BSing.

I am a pilot.

Why don't you believe me?

I'm going to hurt myself.

You want another drink?

You like that money, right?

A little drinky poo?

Okay, I'm just going to return the contents of this to where it came from.

Yes, Jean, this was the grim scene earlier this evening in a farmer's field

the outskirts of Seattle.

So you knew the pilot and the co -pilot?

I knew them both. They were colleagues of mine.

I can't believe this is happening.

Do you have any idea what might have gone wrong with the Genesis, Captain

Robinson?

Hard way here.

Okay, I'll meet you at the north door. Wait for me.

All right, buddy. We know you're there.

Now stand up, raise your hands above your head, slowly.

All right.

Don't shoot, okay?

Jesus, Murphy.

Bird Dog Dumont?

Ned?

Is that you?

Oh, I heard you washed up in a nice blue Corbett aviation suit, but... Oh, man,

you look good.

Mr. Chief of Security.

It's all right.

I know there's something to tick.

Unbelievable. Look at you.

Jesus. What are you doing here, Pete?

I mean, I haven't seen you since, well, hell, since we all shipped back from the

Gulf in 91.

Well, this and that, you know.

So what's in the boxes?

Boxes?

Oh, well.

Whoa, that's loud.

Sweet, huh?

Here you go. How'd you get in here?

This place is locked up pretty tight.

Well, it's not that tight. The door was open.

I told you your ass was grass if you ever forgot to secure one of these doors

again. I didn't, Ned.

I mean, I don't... Oh, shut up already.

It was my sister seeing you anyway.

That's the thing, isn't it, pal?

I don't want to piss in your pageant, but if you think you're actually going

sell one of these shirts... No, I'm not selling these things. These are, you

know, giveaways. They're promos for my new customers.

Check this out.

Sun and Sand Charters Incorporated, okay? The Pacific Northwest's first

discount, discount holiday travel service. No kidding.

A charter company.

Bird dog.

Oh, you're still flying, then.

Well, no, I haven't actually, you know, flown in about two years. The FAA didn't

have much of a sense of humor when I told them that I flew straight or drunk

sober. No, they wouldn't. But anyway, I'm working on that one. And meanwhile,

OK, I got a business partner, got the money, and I got a line on a lease on a

737.

OK, so what I'm saying is all I need right now is a dry place to keep these

shirts until I can get the key to my office from the terminal.

I don't know, bird dog.

This is a private hangar. Ty Corbett's a real hard... I'm coming from way down,

all right? Both personally and professionally.

But I'm on my way back up. All right, fine.

A day or two tops, okay?

Hey, you got it, that's Ned.

I love you, man.

Okay, well, let's get this stuff stowed.

All right.

Yeah, good man, Ned.

You don't have a problem with me helping out an old Air Force buddy, do you? No.

Don't suppose you'd have this an extra large, would you? Hey.

For you, for you, I got a triple X.

Unbelievable,

man.

You look good. You too, buddy.

I'm very happy to see everybody here this afternoon.

No one more than my board of directors.

Thank you for your faith.

Six months ago, there's a lot of people in the media and the aerospace industry

itself here in Seattle who thought I was finished, who thought that corporate

aviation would not take to the skies again.

Well, to all of them, or you, as the case may be, the genesis...

They say that every failure brings with it a valuable lesson to those that are

willing to learn. Well, a valuable lesson I learned after the tragic crash

Genesis 1 last September is this.

Don't quit.

The Wright brothers knew that over a century ago. They didn't quit when their

first prototypes refused to take flight.

NASA didn't quit after the Challenger disaster in 1986, and that could go on,

but the point is...

Every major advance in the history of aviation has been made by the bold, not

the faint -hearted.

Self -recorded one day.

And now, for those who haven't had the pleasure, I'd like to take this

opportunity to introduce you to my very lovely daughter, Brandy.

Brandy, would you and my future grandson please stand up?

The man who made an honest woman out of Brandy is my son -in -law, David

Caulfield. David Caulfield is not only one of the hottest trial attorneys on

West Coast, he also happens to be the son of my good friend, Senator John

Caulfield.

Is that the same Senator Caulfield that's behind the big push in Congress

triple federal funding for the private aerospace R &Ds? Well, Corbett's no

dummy. It's the software we've developed after the last year's tragedy.

now gives corporate aviation a fail -safe, fully computer -integrated

control system.

The first in the world, I might add.

I'm very pleased and excited to tell you that 18 hours from now, this very

important trio behind me will be joining me on board Genesis II for her maiden

flight between Seattle and Los Angeles.

And last but not least, I know you all want to meet the pilot for tomorrow's

historic flight.

Captain Rhys Roberts.

They're all yours.

Well, I wouldn't say I know as much as the technicians who designed our

systems, but I'll do my very best to answer any of your questions.

How does it work? Terrific.

I've tested this aircraft extensively, and we're ready.

No, I mean, how does it work?

Well, basically, we utilize 320 cross -functional build teams that in turn

access 2 ,200 terminals and three -dimensional interactive application

systems to produce what we like to call pure perfection in flight.

I told you.

Maybe I can put things a little more simply.

The Genesis II...

is a jet aircraft that takes off, lands, and flies itself.

I have one.

How can you consider yourself a real pilot when a microchip or whatever runs

cockpit?

Believe me, I have years of first -class flight training behind me, and I

definitely am a real pilot.

Well said, Captain.

This is the 21st century here, friend. A real pilot is someone who can adapt

proven flying skills with the new technologies available to them.

A pilot who cannot or will not adapt to new technologies is not a real pilot.

Just an obsolete.

Well, it looks like we're just about wrapped up here. If you want to take any

photographs, please feel free to come on up, and when you're ready, I'll be

happy to give you all a tour of the cockpit. Thank you.

Who

is

the asshole in the fight jacket, do you know?

Nope.

Wait, wait.

Would you like some candy, little girl?

You're welcome.

You're welcome.

Be the one.

You think you used to have some fun.

Don't go telling lies.

Couldn't hear you knocking for the music.

What? Called about an ADSL hookup for your computer.

You still piss at me?

Asshole.

I miss you too, baby.

Don't call me baby too much. We're not married anymore.

Okay.

You?

Okay,

I'm sorry I gave you a hard time today. No, you're not.

Okay, I'm not, but I just never...

Took you for the corporate type, you know, and I thought you were a real

At least I'm flying.

Okay, I deserve that.

Maybe I'm just jealous.

Jealous and awfully damn proud.

You miss me a little bit.

What are you doing here, Peter?

In Seattle, I mean.

I'm just trying to get my life back together.

Stop drinking.

Really? When?

A week ago.

Well, two weeks ago.

And how is it?

It's really hard sometimes.

Hey, you'll appreciate this.

I've been working on getting this business together.

charter flights to the Hawaiian Islands.

Cool, huh?

Does that mean you got your license back?

Well, not yet, but... Have you even talked to the FAA about it?

I wish you all the luck in the world on this, Peter.

I really do.

You know, I'm planning on talking to the FAA really soon.

Yeah.

Hey, you know what? I thought maybe we'd go out and have some dinner.

You know, like, have a real talk.

I'm tired.

Well, okay, then we can order something in.

Maybe something with a little spice to get the sparks going again.

Sparks were never our problem. You can say that again.

Peter, it's over.

I can't go back there.

I've moved on.

Well, you can't blame a guy for trying to get a second chance at a really good

thing.

I got a flight plan that I gotta write up and file tomorrow.

I'm gonna take a shower, okay?

Okay.

That was quite the performance out at the airport this afternoon.

What were you doing?

I don't know. I guess I was just having a little bit of fun.

So, Ned.

What?

I could use a friendly ear tonight and might end up being a bartender in the

space I'm in right now.

Where are you?

I'm in a parking lot next to trouble.

All right, look. I'll give you an address.

Number 27 -16 -52 Oakmont.

Can you meet me there? Half an hour.

Okay. See you there.

Everyone got a chair?

Okay, why don't we get started?

Welcome, everyone.

Have a seat.

Let's open with our serenity prayer.

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,

courage to change the things I can,

and wisdom to know the difference.

Amen. So I see we have a visitor or two with us tonight.

Welcome.

All right, come on.

You know what it's like to feel a little insane.

What's up, somebody who cares? What's going on?

Now I'm not about what you thought I had to hear. And I'm touching you to tell

the world who cares.

Now I see some men in the corner.

Trying to bring me down hard.

No one cares and no one sees.

I'm such a little man.

And Caesar's spirit ranging for revenge with A .T. by his side come hot from

hell, shall in these confines with a monarch's voice cry havoc and let slip

dogs of war.

Let me guess, you forgot your tool?

Not exactly.

How do I put this?

See, a hacker always recognizes another hacker.

A hacker?

I don't know what or who you're scamming, but I know it's Big Ten.

You think so?

Yeah, definitely.

I see you.

Not to brag or anything, but I'm pretty good myself.

Maybe we could talk about teaming up.

Hmm, that's interesting.

Tell me something, aren't you supposed to still be at work?

Nah, I punched out an hour ago.

Mine? No, no, no, go right ahead, yeah.

Would you like a beer?

Could be great.

Oh, shit.

You are heavyweight.

Thank you.

You played it.

Is this for me?

It's lovely.

Would you like to come in?

How's the weather in L .A.? Clear and sunny with a high of 70, Mr. Corbin.

We'll have lunch at the beach.

Sounds like a plan.

Hi. How are you feeling?

Well, I'm holding up. Oh, we're doing just fine. Great.

Oh, we are, are we?

Good morning, Senator Koffman. Good morning, Captain.

Very nice, Ty.

I think I'd take this over Air Force One any day. Well, the President has a

slightly nicer home than I do.

Oh, Peter,

if you could see me now.

How do you like her so far?

I like her just fine.

What are you doing?

The bathroom.

Is that door?

Okay, we're linked.

Uploading.

Like my computer game?

Can I play?

Maybe later.

In fact, I think you'd better go home now. Your mother might be worried.

I mean, go on.

Where were you?

Down there.

You didn't leave the building?

Because it's not safe outside, you know.

Hey!

Thank you.

Are you hungry?

No.

Okay.

Mama's going back to bed.

You watch TV, okay?

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your co -pilot speaking.

I hope everybody's buckled up and relaxed back there. We're just waiting

clearance from the tower.

Genesis 2, you're cleared for takeoff. Runway 34R. Copy that. Genesis 2,

for takeoff. Runway 34R. Thank you, Seattle Tower.

Genesis Central, are you with us too?

We're right here.

Have a good one. Thanks. Plan 2.

This is going to be so exciting.

Exciting? You have no idea.

You're a go for three more, Genesis 2.

Roger that. Thank you, CL Power.

Now I'm your flight attendant.

Who wants a drink?

Scotch John? Please.

David.

It's a little early in the day for me, but thank you.

Nothing for you, I know.

I'll go make some coffee. Oh, no, sweetheart, you relax.

I'll make the coffee.

Okay. That is a three -minute something like the machine in our kitchen.

That's it.

Everybody relax and get comfy. The fun is about to begin.

Think I'll take over now, Captain? Thank you very much.

Seattle to L .A.? Not today.

Let's see.

Where should we go instead, then?

I don't know. I don't know.

How about...

Nowhere. Best.

Genesis 2, this is Seattle Center.

We show you in a left turn.

Say that again, Seattle Center?

Copy that, Genesis 2. I said we show you in a left turn. What's the matter? You

forgot the way to LAX, Captain?

Confirm a turn.

Flight and nav both say we're flying a straight heading.

Our route just disappeared.

Now it's showing some crazy holding pattern over Seattle.

What's happening up there, Genesis 2?

My question, too, Seattle Tower.

Genesis Central, can you help us out with this?

We're already on it, Reese. Must be some sort of malfunction in the nav

database. Should I switch to manual?

No, hang in there. We're going through your settings right now.

Genesis 2, Seattle Center here. We're clearing use of airspace at present

altitude.

Yeah, some sand charters.

Hey, Chuck.

Yeah, hey, listen, I just ran across this quote for print ads in Seattle

Tribune. It says here you can get about a month of Sundays for a pretty

decent... Come again?

Oh, Chuck, I thought we talked this all through, man.

Yeah, I got a 737 and everything.

No, I understand it's your money.

Yeah.

You know what?

Never mind, okay?

If I was a horse, I wouldn't bet on me either.

Yeah, I'll talk to you later.

Well, I can't tell you how much I appreciate your support on this federal

thing.

Between the crash costs and all the capital it's taken to redesign our

and get airborne again, it was pretty touch and go for a while.

Well, there's no guarantee in the lobbying business, Ty. Those guys on the

are hard to figure out some days.

But we're definitely giving it the full court press.

I know you are, John.

And let me tell you, pushing the military potential on this technology

stroke of genius on your part.

Our stock price is finally starting to rebound.

Well, thank you for that.

Obviously, the possibility of a pilotless warplane in the future should

well with the mothers of America.

Don't believe that you're gonna get it.

Wait a minute. There's no limit.

No guarantee that you're gonna get it.

How did you get in here?

The door was open.

Fine.

Just caught me by surprise, that's all.

You like it?

This is Genesis 2. Have you got that glitch figured out yet?

That's a negative reason.

All right.

Look, I know the poop's going to hit the prop, but I think I have to bring Mr.

Corbett into the picture now.

She's right.

Corbett's got to know what's going on.

I better let someone else know.

Senator Caulfield's people in Washington?

Yeah, them too, I guess.

You've reached Sun and Sand Charters. We are no longer in business, but... Bird

Dog, it's Ned.

Hey, Ned, you're a little late. I have no idea what you're talking about,

Dumont, but you might want to haul your ass over to Genesis Control Center.

It seems Reese's plane is in some kind of trouble here. Huh?

All right, I'll be right there.

Are you telling me that none of that high -priced help down there can tell me

how a routine... Seattle LA flight plan that Reese downloaded from her laptop

has suddenly mutated into 45 minutes of ring around Seattle.

Mr. Corbin, I don't know what to say. It shouldn't be happening.

Logically, it can't be happening.

Well, it is happening, isn't it?

Idiot. God almighty, the best and the brightest time.

Are you getting anywhere on...

You want to play?

Okay.

That's neat stuff, huh?

Put that one on by yourself.

I'm giving you ten minutes to find this little problem and fix it. After that,

we disengage from the computer and bring her down the old -fashioned way and

listen to me.

I really hate being embarrassed in public, so let's all hope that we don't

to go there.

We hear you loud and clear, Mr. Corbett. Good. Genesis, this is Seattle Center.

Please check your altitude.

We have you descending into levels with other traffic.

We're supposed to be at 2 .30.

What the hell is going on here?

Did I tell you I have a little girl, too?

It's true.

She can't be very much older than you.

Where is she?

I'm not sure.

Somewhere? With a mother?

Blair!

Better go. Hurry, hurry, hurry.

Go, go, go, go.

Go.

Blair? A little secret, right?

Center, Genesis 2 is in an uncontrolled ascent. Stand by.

I can't wait for them to figure this out, sir. We're not talking

anymore. We're talking serious danger.

Damn it.

Fine.

Go to manual override. Take it back up.

It's not working.

I can't disengage my computer.

Seattle Center, Genesis 2 is declaring an emergency.

What the hell's going on? Whoa, whoa, whoa. It's too strict and daring. It's

right.

It's Reese's X.

Don't panic yet.

We have a computer malfunction.

I thought we were better off when pilots actually flew the planes.

You've been drinking?

I only had time for one.

Should have brought the rest of the damn bottle with you. I could have used it

to double myself.

What have you got here?

We just leveled off at 15 ,000.

You, uh...

You turn the seatbelt sign back on. Is everything all right?

Everything's just fine. Just a bit of weather, Dave.

That's our T -pass. What now?

Oh,

no,

we can't have that. No premature emulation here.

You just saved our lives, Reed.

I didn't do that.

Then who did?

I did it.

What's going on, Ty?

I don't know.

David's been hurt. It's bad.

We have to land and get into a hospital.

How much longer until we reach LA? We're not going to LA. We're 15 ,000 feet

over Seattle.

What?

Genesis 2, do you copy?

Genesis...

Genesis Central, this is Seattle Center.

Are you still there at least?

We're still here, Seattle Center. We've got a Cessna reporting a near miss with

Genesis 2 about four minutes ago.

The radar shows them holding at 15 ,000 feet, but we can't contact them. Copy

that, Seattle Center. We can't raise them either. Something's blocking their

comm lines now. Yeah, or someone.

I'm picking up bits and pieces of an outside transmission to the plane.

What frequency?

I don't know. I can't get a fix.

Shove over. Let me in there. What do you think you're doing? It's okay. Just let

him do his thing.

That was the best calm guy in the Air Force in Kuwait.

Seattle Center, we're requesting projected airspace for Genesis 2 at 15

Roger that, Genesis Center.

Already done.

What the hell is that?

The transmission to Genesis 2.

This guy has piggybacked an eyeline onto our communication channels.

Who is he?

No idea.

Sounds like he's got a filter on his voice anyway.

You can't keep us holding like this forever.

Why not?

Well, for one thing, we'll eventually run out of fuel.

You are a clever girl, aren't you?

He's going to take them down. That's it.

We need to start a triangulation search right now and see if we can find this

guy.

I don't know how.

He's on the ground. He's got them trapped up there.

I can't say for sure, but I think he's got a fractured skull.

Oh, my God.

The only thing we can do for him now is keep him completely still and hope

there's been no bleeding onto his brain.

Stop touching his heart, Richie, will you?

He can see us.

The son of a bitch can see us in here.

The one I installed in the cockpit would be the last thing you ever did. Who

cares? You're going to kill us anyway.

You're saying you don't want to live as long as possible?

No.

I'm saying screw you and your head games.

One, two, three, four, five. I count five of you back there.

Who's flying the plane, Captain Robinson?

You are.

7 ,500.

7 ,000.

6 ,500.

6 ,000. All right, you know, we can all see it for ourselves.

Go away. I guess I really am flying this plane.

One sec.

I can't take this, Ty.

My son may be dying right in front of my eyes. No, John.

No one is dying on my airplane.

We can't triangulate.

He's got some sort of sophisticated digital echo working for him.

What does that mean? It means that every word, every bit of code he's

transmitting is being thrown up against a kind of cyber wall, which scatters it

to a million different locations all at once.

It's called splattering.

Splattering, huh?

That's what I like to do to his brains.

Yeah, and then by some system only he knows, and all bounces back to Genesis 2

and reforms on their computer.

So it means he could be transmitting from anywhere.

Anywhere on the goddamn planet. We talked to Seattle Tower. Thanks for

Just talk to air traffic control.

Senator Caulfield's people in Washington have called in the FBI.

Their agents are all over the tower and air control center now. Oh, that's

great. We sure as hell don't need the Bureau running around here right now. I

hear you.

I'll see what I can do about holding them off. So what do we do now?

We cross our fingers and hope that these fine folks can figure out how this guy

got control of the plane and how we can cut him off.

All right, everyone.

This is our little secret.

Okay.

What's happened?

What's wrong with the little girl? I don't know. Her mother said she just got

sick all of a sudden.

Hey,

you, I have a question.

Hey!

Are you even there?

I've been thinking about this.

The only way that he... This might be a trick.

You're right. It wouldn't be his first one today.

Listen.

In order to pull this off, he must have created a flight simulation program that

could interface between his computer and ours.

And then somehow he hacked it into my laptop.

I must have passed it straight through to the FMC when I uploaded my flight

in the cockpit this morning. And now he has total control of the aircraft.

Every critical function on Genesis 2 is computer controlled.

And they're all user interfaced.

But the only thing he can't do is flush the toilet. And actually, I'm not even

sure about that.

So basically what you're saying is we're screwed.

If I run a full quick restore through it, maybe it'll help reformat the FMC

drive. That would destroy his program and flip us into manual.

That's a theory anyway.

Why,

Corbett, you old devil.

A quickie with the pilot at 15 ,000 feet?

Yeah, and it was amazing. Too bad you missed it.

Want a cigarette?

Oh, I'm going to miss you, Kevin Robinson.

Gee, it's a shame I can't say the same about you.

Are you all right?

Did you really think I'd leave any opening to chance?

Well, that's just it, isn't it? We have no idea what kind of a fool we're

dealing with.

Reaching out to you from that farm.

Backing off.

Jesus.

Gabriel Winfield?

Who the hell is that?

An ex -employee. Gone postal.

Struck dumb, aren't we?

Well, I expect this will get your guts moving again.

You might want to check your fuel gauge, Captain Robinson.

The reading just dropped to 6 ,000 pounds. There was almost 10 ,000 there a

minute ago.

Actually, there wasn't.

You could say I tweaked the settings a little bit this morning to make sure

the maintenance guard laid you with a short while.

But my estimation, you've got about two hours left.

It might be nothing, but let's find out what kind of spider this is.

Call the entomology department at the university and see if we can send

over here, Stat.

Sure. Okay.

Don't do this, Gabriel.

You hate me.

Okay, but don't forget that there's four innocent people on this plane. Two of

them are women.

And one of them is going to have a baby.

Plus, who knows how many others at risk on the ground. Dozens, probably.

Try hundreds.

Please.

I'll give you anything you want.

How about my reputation?

How about my family?

I lost my family working for you, Corby. I had a daughter.

I can't give you those back, obviously, but I can try and compensate for their

loss. Name your price.

A million dollars.

Two million dollars.

How about ten?

If that's what you want.

Twenty? How much?

Will you just tell me how much do you want? I want it all, Corby. I want it

Still $20 million. It sounds like a nice round number.

You think you can couple together that kind of cash?

God, yes, whatever it takes.

Okay, how do we get word to our people on the ground? Don't worry about that.

took them a little while to get into the game, but they know exactly what's

going on now.

Gabriel. You built a bloody good system here, Timmy. It's bloody good.

The last mine's better. Please stop jamming us.

Reese? Peter?

Reese, just hang in there, okay?

Excuse me?

Whoever you are?

This is my don.

You son of a... Touchy, touchy.

Well, enough of the idle chit -chat. It's time to get to work collecting

Ah, he's jamming us again.

I want $20 million.

Gray suitcases.

They're not gray.

The field's off.

What difference does the color make?

Leave the money at the corner.

Nope.

Leave the money in the middle of the field where Genesis 1 crashed.

Only think spitting, do you?

What's the word?

Associates.

One of my associates in Seattle will pick up the cash for me.

Do you have one hour?

Starting now.

Call the tower. Make sure the FBI got all of that.

Ball's in the court now.

Bird dog, it's okay. It's going to be all right.

Yeah, if you say so.

Turning and turning in the widening gyre.

The falcon cannot hear the falconeer.

Things fall apart.

Then I cannot hold.

Anarchy is loosed and everywhere the ceremony of innocence is drowned.

This is Abbott. I just spoke to an entomologist from the university.

The bug in your daughter's sleeve was the Sydney funnel web spider.

It's Australian and very, very poisonous.

We're still waiting on the blood work to confirm, but we suspect that she was

bitten. How?

No idea. Maybe you brought it home in some fruit or something from the grocery

store. That doesn't matter right now. Our problem is that the nearest

is in San Francisco. It's being sent to us right now in a Learjet, but it won't

be here for an hour.

We'll just have to find a way to keep her with us until then.

Nobody showed up for the money.

Then again, I guess you knew that.

Well, let's just say I had a feeling.

All that crap about the suitcases having to be gray.

Yeah.

And telling us to leave the money in an open field for crying out loud where

surveillance would be a piece of cake?

It's just a goose chase.

It's not about the money. It's about revenge.

How much time do we have, Ned?

An hour.

Nearly.

I thought I hit hell about six months ago in a Honolulu bar.

Doesn't compare to this.

I taught her how to fly, Ned.

I taught her how to fly. And now she's up there.

And I'm down here on the ground with no way of helping her.

You know, there's some pretty smart folks back at the control center, Bird

I mean, they could still crack this thing in time. I'm never going to get

covered as tracks too well.

In an hour or so, he's going to be on some rooftop or something.

balcony, watching that plane go down in the middle of Seattle and burst into

flames.

God damn it.

You're right.

I mean... What? Gabriel, he's not transmitting from Australia. He's right

in Seattle.

A guy like that, he'd want a front row seat to witness his big finale.

Yeah, he wouldn't miss it for the world.

So, big deal.

I mean, we found the haystack, but where's the needle? Huh?

Hey, wait.

Where are you going?

I can't just stay here and do nothing, okay? I have to do something.

Even if it's just going out and driving around.

I mean, maybe if there is a guy, he'll put me on the right street or something.

Bird Dog, you gotta hang in there with us.

Oh, shit.

What do you mean the deal's on?

Did you just say that the offer fell short?

But we got you what you wanted.

You got me what you thought I wanted.

I just decided to play along for the lack of it. You're sick.

Sick? I really don't think so, Captain Robinson.

I prefer to think of myself as single -minded.

This is not about money. It never could be. It's about respect.

Well, believe me, Wingfield, you have my respect. I think you're a true genius.

Now, can we please end this now?

That's lame, Corbett.

No, I'm afraid the arrogance and sarcasm I still detect on the tip of your

tongue won't be completely swallowed till your airplane's spiraling to the

ground at 400 miles an hour.

Then? You will respect me.

This can't be happening. It's insane.

John. For God's sake. There's nothing she can do.

Look at him.

Okay, let's try reconfiguring again.

A lot of people, there has to be a way out of it.

Yeah,

I'm here.

What is here?

Well, you don't sound so good.

Have a drink? I think there are more important things to worry about right

than me.

I'll give you that one.

God, Snake, will you let him land? What harm can it do? Hold on, Bird Dog. Nick,

what?

The tower.

The FBI's ordered them to divert all their traffic away from Seattle.

Seems reasonable enough to me under the circumstances. Yeah, I know, but there's

a Learjet on its way up from San Francisco on a medical emergency.

Some little girl got bit by like a funnel web spider this morning. She

without the antivenom.

So this little girl's on the Learjet. No, the antivenom's on the Lear. Kid got

bit here in Seattle.

Beep.

Australian. What?

The funnel web spider comes from Australia.

Like Gabriel?

I don't know. That's a stretch.

Yeah. Yeah, I know. That's all we got to go on.

Look, call the tower. Find out what hospital that kid's in and then call me

right back, okay? Yeah. All right.

You're Mrs. Abbott, right?

Yeah.

Your daughter was bitten by the spider?

Yeah.

You're not a doctor, are you?

No, I'm from the health department, and we need your address.

What's going on here? Who are you?

Well, I'm with the health department, and we need to... Call security.

Mrs. Abbott, please.

This is a matter of life and death.

Sir, whoever you are, you have to leave now.

It's 2649 Clarence Street, apartment 34.

All right, thank you.

And don't worry, your little girl's going to be okay.

No, you should be back with Brandy and Senator. They need you.

Piss off, I'm busy.

Oh, yeah, well, I'm really sorry to bother you, sir, but I have a delivery

the people in the apartment above yours, and they're not home right now, so I'm

just wondering if you wouldn't mind. Yeah, I might.

Oh, will you share?

You can save me another trip. It looks like something that might be important.

Get out.

Have a seat.

unlock or undo or un -whatever it is you've got to do to restore manual

of that airplane to the pilot.

That's funny.

Go ahead, if it'll make you feel any better.

Oh, what a shame they brought the wrong detachment to the cabin.

Imagine that, a real live Luddite.

She's lovely, isn't she?

Yeah, just let me talk to her.

I know who you are now. You have that touchy voice at the other end of the

Shut up, asshole.

Put me through to her.

Yes, I know.

But you better hurry. If you're going to ask her, I don't know what to say.

Reese, can you hear me? It's me, Pete. Peter, what are you doing there?

It's kind of a long, strange story. I'll tell you later.

Who's there with you? Just me and Gabriel.

But I want you to hold tight.

Help's on the way.

Okay, that's good to know.

Gabriel's dead.

It's just me now, for whatever that's worth.

It's worth a lot, Peter.

You've got to stop selling yourself short.

Although I would admit it would be nice if you knew something about computers

right about now.

Yeah.

Well, I'll join a computer class first thing in the morning.

So, uh, I don't know, the fuel doesn't look too bad.

What do you think, 15, 20 minutes?

Nice try, Dumont.

Seven tops.

Don't shoot. It's okay.

Thank God.

Reese, it's going to be okay. Help's here.

Okay, everybody.

Gabriel's been taken out. The Genesis ground team are on site. It won't take

them very long to figure out what he did to us and turn us loose. That's the

good news.

The bad news is that we're running out of fuel.

This is not going to be a routine flight, so please, everybody buckle up

Randy, I promise I'll do everything I can not to bounce David around. too

okay?

Okay, any time.

Give me back my airplane.

No, God damn it. No way. What?

The bastard gave himself a backup.

What do you mean a backup?

He must have done it when he got inside and installed those videos.

Done what? What are you talking about? Gabriel reconfigured most of the key

onboard systems.

If we switch off the flight management computer now, yeah, they'll have manual,

but it'll be manual with no computer -assisted flight controls whatsoever and

hydraulics, which means extremely limited handling, no flaps, no landing

Can't it be reconfigured? On board, yes, but not from here. I could try and talk

them through it, but... You can't talk them down. There's no time.

He's right. We're down to fumes. Cut us loose. You can't land a plane like

Genesis II with that many failed systems. It's practically... What else

going to do? Wait until they run out of fuel and just drop out of the sky?

I mean, there's got to be some kind of emergency mechanical gear extensions for

the wheels, doesn't there? Yes, but... Look, just cut them loose, okay? Or I'm

going to pull the plug myself. Do it now.

Disengage us from the FMC.

Tammy.

All right, all right.

You're on your own after I do this genesis, too.

See you on the tarmac.

Wait a second.

Reese. I wish you were with me here right now, Peter. I need to hold your

Yeah, me too.

But you can do this all by yourself.

Just do it by feel, you know, the way I taught you.

I remember.

Be the airplane.

That's right.

You be the airplane.

Wings level, nose up attitude, just let her settle down on her own and keep her

straight. I can do that.

I know you can.

And Reese, don't ever forget this.

I love you, too.

Okay, Reese. We've got control.

Seattle Tower, this is Genesis 2. Do you read? Welcome back, Genesis 2.

We see you've left your holding pattern.

Affirmative, Seattle Tower. I'm planning a straight -in approach on runway 34.

Mayday! Mayday! This is Genesis 2 declaring an emergency.

We just ran out of fuel. I've lost both engines.

Are you still planning three more?

Yeah, I think I have enough altitude for a gliding.

I'm hoping to drop my landing gear mechanically, but even if I do, it's

dead -stick landing.

Sure is quiet out there.

Must be like this all the time for the birds.

Look.

There's a lear.

And an awful big gray to get down, isn't he?

Okay, it won't be long now. I want everybody to assume crash position.

Bend forward, grab your anchor, stay down.

Come on, Reese.

Your light's too high.

Shit. What?

We're too high and we're too hot.

I think we're going to overshoot.

On runway 34, you mean? Forget 34. I think we're going to overshoot the

Seattle Power.

Genesis 2, how are we looking from down there? I have you 12 out at 4 ,000 feet.

Okay, so we're not going to make the field.

I have to get her down.

I'm going to use the trim to drop the nose, and I'll side flip in.

It's going to be steep, and we're going to be coming in like the spaceship, but

if we're lucky, I might make the end of the field.

It's your call, Genesis 2.

Yeah, well, I'm open to any other suggestions. Believe me. Copy that. The

is yours, Genesis 2.

Look, if you can drop it inside, your best bet is probably the old emergency

runway out in the southwest corner.

Okay, that's my target then.

Roger that.

Good luck.

Genesis 2, your approach wind is 300 at 15.

300 degrees, 50 knots, check.

You can do this.

You're looking good, Cap.

Altitude's good on profile to touchdown point.

Speed's okay.

Check the crosswinds.

Keeper level.

Keeper straight.

Be the airplane.

Oh, Jesus.

The landing gear.

Left and right are a go, but the nose gear isn't coming down. Well, we're

to go over tea kettle.

You don't have to tell me. Just help me.

Come on.

Nose gear is down.

It's okay.

It's okay. It's okay.

It's okay.

I'd like to get there myself.

That woman just did one hell of a job.

Yeah, I know she did.

You had a really good teacher once.

I don't ever remember teaching any of that.

Maybe you can teach me some of those new tricks.

I'll get something we can eat.
