Replacement Sky One approaching rendezvous.

Roger, Sky One.

Have begun docking procedures.

You've got a great crew there, Captain.

It's been a privilege working with you these past weeks.

We've enjoyed your company, sir.

Hope you have a good furlough.

Don't worry.

I really plan to let my hair down.

Joe Jordan did home in Tucson, Arizona.

Austin, California.

Isn't that jojo?

Good making.

It's a bit late for introductions.

Yeah, looks as though I've got a lot of catching up to do. Let's start with the

drink.

What would you like?

Um, scotch.

Good night, Sylvia. Good night, Paul.

Good night.

I'll walk you to the door. Why don't you fix yourself a drink?

Good night, Sylvia. Thanks for the lovely party.

Is this what you're looking for?

It's a great party.

Looks like it.

What's the time?

4 .30.

You know, I've got to be up around 7 tomorrow.

Hmm.

You poor little thing.

4 .30.

5 .30.

6 .30.

I know what you need.

An alarm clock.

Here's your coffee, Keith.

Yeah, that's just what I needed.

Good morning, sir.

Moon base to control.

Sighting. Area red 042 -184.

How does it look, Lieutenant?

We're awaiting confirmation.

Franklin. Joe Franklin.

Missile technician.

Don't tell me. It's... Ford?

Fraser?

Foster.

Paul Foster.

Glad to meet you, Colonel.

I knew it had to begin with F.

These, uh...

These poops are going through the entire alphabet.

Everything from Aaron to Zazinsky.

Yeah. I hear everybody in shadow has to go through it.

Right. Will Colonel Paul Foster please report to room 17 on the first floor?

I think you're first in line, sir.

You're FO.

I'm FR.

See you in the fun palace.

UFO 428.

Speed, one and a half million miles per second.

Bearing positive.

Course 017234 ready.

Siding confirmed. We have a UFO on positive track.

Red alert.

Interceptors, immediate launch.

Interceptors, immediate launch.

Moon base to control.

We have a positive sighting.

Get the trajectory termination as soon as possible.

Yes, sir.

Ever contracted scarlet fever, mumps, measles, whooping cough, German measles,

chicken pox?

Yes.

Yes?

I had measles.

Oh. How old were you? Four.

Was it five?

Getting plenty of sleep, Colonel?

Oh, yes.

Most of the time.

Well, after two weeks here, you'll feel on top of the world.

It could be better.

Keep it up, Rowan.

Well, we'll soon get rid of that, won't we, Franklin?

Course?

Great place.

A giggle in there, no second.

Can't wait to leave.

Some workout.

Yeah.

And this is only the first day.

Come on, gentlemen.

One of you into the bath.

That's just what I can do.

And I'm first.

O before R.

Right.

You reckon you're ready for this?

It's a sonar bath.

Thank you.

Moon base for you, sir.

All right, go ahead, Lieutenant.

We have the UFO termination fix.

Southern England, grid reference 4706.

Yes, ground radar gave us the same information, Lieutenant.

How badly was it damaged?

Well, the interceptor scored a probable hit, but the UFO seemed to maintain its

course.

Listen, Lieutenant, I want moon base maintained on a full red alert.

If that UFO breaks cover and lifts off, I want it destroyed.

Now, keep me informed.

Roger and out.

Are the mobiles moving in?

Yes, sir.

Nothing of real significance here, Alec.

The research center is less than 15 miles away.

I doubt if the aliens would travel a billion miles to visit a glorified

farm, even if it is run by shadow.

Didn't Paul Foster check in there this morning?

Colonel Foster.

Yes.

Get me Dr. Fraser to that research center.

Yes, sir.

Radio contact negative, sir.

Well, keep trying.

Yes, sir.

You'd better get over there, Alec.

Fast. Right.

We've just landed.

I couldn't see any activity around the house.

Now listen, Alec. The men from the mobiles have the place completely

Well, hold them back.

I'll move in with the helicopter crew. There's less chance of being spotted.

Out.

Can it go?

You wait here.

Come with me.

You wait there.

Are you certain?

We've searched the whole center. Everyone's dead and there's no trace of

Foster.

There's only one answer, Alec.

We've been taken by the aliens.

Steer 128.

Maintain present speed.

128 it is, sir.

Waterman here, sir.

Captain Waterman.

I have some news.

It concerns Colonel Foster.

I'm afraid we must assume that he is in the hands of the aliens.

Did you read me, Captain?

Yes.

Sir, what happened?

The research center was attacked.

Colonel Foster is officially listed as missing.

Now, that UFO is still in the area.

I want Sky One maintained on full red alert.

Ready for an interception.

Yes, sir.

How can a thing like this happen?

We work on the assumption that Colonel Foster is alive and will be rescued.

Okay?

All right, this is supposed to be an operational alert.

Let's get to it.

Maximum speed.

Seal all water locks.

Down checks A through G.

Control to Skydiver.

Remain on standby for emergency launch.

What are his chances?

Oh, come on, Alec. Now tell me, I just want to know what you have in mind.

When that UFO lifts off, the ground radar should fix its position

And?

We destroy it.

Knowing that Paul Foster is almost certainly aboard.

That's right.

You'd just better hope I'm never in a position to press the button on you.

How do you know he's even still alive, Alec?

Paul Foster, the highly trained, dedicated, courageous officer.

What he knows the entire shadow set up.

Yes, he's trained to resist interrogation, but what gentle means of

will they use to crack him?

No, Alec.

If we destroy that UFO, Paul Foster loses his life quick and clean.

If we don't get it, God knows what will happen to him.

Do we have a fix?

Yes, sir. Computer triangulates grid reference 124048.

Speed?

800 knots, accelerating.

That must be it.

Where's Skydiver?

Here, Fred.

Compute. Roger.

Looks like we could intercept around here.

Where's that readout?

It looks good.

Signal Sky One.

Immediate launch.

Yes, sir.

Launch station.

Check boost is one, two, and three.

Liftoff station.

Liftoff minus five, four, three, two, one,

Sky One to Control.

Airborne. We have you on positive track, Sky One.

Set onboard computer for interception course.

Check the UFO's airspeed.

Yes, sir.

1 ,500 knots.

What's its rate of climb?

Ten decimal four MPR.

Maybe it's more damage than we thought.

Let's hope so.

I have it on radar.

Range 29 miles.

Closing. You must get it.

It's a sitting duck.

Have visual contact.

Setting missile firing sequence.

You've got a great crew there, Captain.

It's been a privilege working with you these past weeks.

Missile launch.

Minus ten seconds.

Five, four, three, two, zero.

How the blazes did he miss it?

Get me Lieutenant Ellis.

Excellent visibility.

Positive radar track.

Positive infrared homing signal.

I thought that Captain Waterman had any emotion for a man he's been serving with

for the past two months.

Moon base for you, sir.

Lieutenant Ellis, what are the chances of an interception by moon base?

None at all, sir.

The UFO's leaving Earth on an anti -lunar trajectory.

Beyond your range.

Well, keep tracking it and report any change.

Roger and out.

Prepare to receive Captain Waterman. Yes, sir.

Open bulkhead.

Range 26 million receding.

Lieutenant.

Can't be.

Check it.

And tell control.

Well, just how long is this going to take?

Is it or isn't it?

It's pretty complex, sir.

Times, courses, trajectories. The interplay of G -forces.

Result sequence.

Trajectory 042 -326 cycling.

Lunar G variable 7 over 5 decimal 4.

Computer predicted power loss 70%. Orbit fading 0 decimal

Predict impact lunar grid reference B182.

Moon base to control.

Positive. Thank you, Lieutenant.

So the UFO's headed for the moon?

Yes. It doesn't have enough power to escape the lunar G -force.

It must have been damaged.

Oh, you were asking about Foster's chances of survival.

I'd say they've just improved.

They must be down to a million to one.

UFO's still maintaining its trajectory.

Good. Just as long as it continues to head for the moon, do nothing.

But if it manages to develop enough power to pull away from lunar gravity,

launch your interceptors and destroy it. The astronauts are in position.

They can be space -borne in seconds.

Fine. Now, keep me informed, Lieutenant.

Roger and out.

Do we have a closer fix on where it's going to land?

Yes. Uh, route reference 182084.

Hmm.

That's about 40 kilometers.

I'm going out there.

Tell Mobile One to stand by. Yes, Lieutenant.

We'll be in the area in eight minutes.

Keep me informed of the UFO's progress.

We're in position area confirmed two minutes from impact

There it is.

It's going to crash.

Will you ask Jackson to come in?

Yes, sir.

Well, what's the situation?

Well, I've just had a long conversation with Moon Bay. The situation is a very

difficult one.

Colonel Foster's general and physical condition is satisfactory, considering

what he's just been through.

But he's in an alien space suit. He's breathing liquid.

Well, we can make the transfer back to normal breathing.

Oh, come on now. You've done it before.

Yes. With aliens, Alec. And none have survived more than a few hours.

It's an extremely hazardous operation.

We've by no means perfected the technique.

There's another difficulty.

Here at Shadow headquarters, we have a facility.

On Moonbase, the equipment is naturally more crude.

Well, I'll be monitoring the operation by video link.

If you'll excuse me.

You're gonna have to help me with a helmet

Listen, Alec.

Paul Foster's in top physical shape.

He's an expert skin diver.

Used on the water pressure.

You think that background may help?

Well, I'm no doctor, but I'm sure it must be an advantage.

You could be right.

Strong lungs, good respiratory system.

Sure.

He'll pull through.

We're all set here, sir.

Right. Now, listen carefully.

As I see it, the main problem will be panic when the helmet is removed.

Colonel Foster has been breathing liquid for some hours now.

Drugs will have been used to help his lungs adapt.

Now, when we attempt to reverse to normal, the physical experience will be

similar to... Drowning.

Unless this moment is carefully controlled, the patient could go into

and possibly choke.

Let the Colonel know the situation, right?

If you can hear me, nod your head.

We're going to remove your helmet.

Try and maintain your rhythm of breathing.

Whatever happens, don't panic.

Do you understand?

What is that? Two cc's of petroco. It should help, I hope.

Is the resuscitator ready?

Yes, sir. All right, Lieutenant.

Begin.

Thank you.

Take hold of him.

No.

Hold him down. Hold him down.

Stop him struggling.

Nice and relaxed.

minutes in the sauna bath.

A few minutes?

Here, drink this.

Tell me, Colonel, have you been burning the candle at both ends recently?

Well, there was a party last night.

A sauna can be considered as a medical aid, but there's one golden rule. Never

take one if you're feeling under the weather.

I should have told you.

Well, there's nothing to worry about, Colonel. You're in good shape.

You'll be in even better shape when you leave here.

Tomorrow we'll get down to some real work.

Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me.

Starlight and dewdrops.

Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me.

Jew drops are waiting for thee.

Who's the voice?

In the dream box.

Dream box?

That's Colonel Foster.

He had a lulu in there yesterday.

Come on, Franklin.

If all else fails, I'll remove that blab around your middle surgically.

Gone are the tales of life's busy throng.

Beautiful dreamer, come wake unto me.

Beautiful dreamer, come wake unto me.
