This is top priority.

Looks like a can of sardines to me. It's one can of sardines we don't want open.

We've got an airborne target. I'll try and force it down.

Do as you're told and nobody will get hurt.

Turbos. You can't use turbos. The disengage is locked down. You'll tear

off the blades.

Ladies and gentlemen, you are indeed among the chosen few.

I am pleased to introduce to you Loki.

Loki is a breakthrough, ladies and gentlemen.

It is the first, shall we say, biofeedback system for an aircraft.

Three dozen sensors send readings into Loki's brain for instant analysis.

It knows just how hard it can be flown, how much it can take.

In short, It makes every aircraft the very best it can be.

It is the central nervous system of the aircraft.

And like a man defending his own life, Loki is capable of maneuvers far beyond

the aircraft's design.

Loki actually learns what kind of aircraft it's flying in a few short

moments, and then look out.

We installed a prototype of Loki in this Korean war vintage fighter.

Then we sent it out to challenge two F-4 fighters.

those performance parameters can a pilot withstand that kind of punishment we

don't know but pity the poor attacker who tries to keep up with loki

Excuse me, sir. This is a... You're not supposed to...

his car. You got it.

Looks like a can of sardines to me.

Well, it's one can of sardines we don't want opened.

Terrorists armed with Loki could strike anywhere in the world, using virtually

any kind of aircraft.

This was top secret.

Well, then why was this guy Jarrett doing a show and tell for half the fat

cat investors on his board of directors?

Because Jarrett's an idiot and a showboat.

And you want us to use Airwolf?

to find what this idiot lost.

Wait a minute. I haven't finished repairing that communications board yet.

Then you'll just have to rig something.

As I said, this is top priority.

We have a report that the getaway car entered the Halanon National Forest...

at, um, this point, Ranger Station 47.

The Halanon National Forest is 10,000 square miles.

Well, I'm sure glad you narrowed it down for us.

I know. It's a big hunk of real estate. That's why we need Airwolf with all

sensors tracking.

Oh, and one word of caution, Hawk. If you do find Loki and they've already got

it installed in some kind of aircraft, don't try to take them on.

Loki isn't human.

It doesn't recognize human limitations.

Here, we'll keep that in mind.

So long, Michael.

Always great to see you.

Got that water bowl in there, Charlie?

Yeah, three pans.

Everything's gonna work out just great, Mrs. Tarwater.

We'll work together on this, okay?

You got that alcohol handy, Charlie?

Right there.

Doc, it's going to be okay, isn't it?

Drink this.

It's going to be all right, isn't it, Doc?

Piece of cake.

Just quit calling me Doc.

Now, you've done this before, haven't you?

Sure. Doc's done this lots of times.

Haven't you, Doc?

Oh, sure. Of course.

What else can you do around here on a Saturday night?

Oh, sure.

Thank God.

You know, when that bridge washed out, I got real scared.

We came up in here to God's country. We live off the land. We do it all by

ourselves.

We just weren't prepared for this.

The baby's two weeks early.

I feel blessed to have you with us, Doc.

We're truly blessed.

Hey, don't you drink all that.

Here we go.

Okay, Charlie, how about some water?

Come on, water.

Okay, now, just breathe. Just continue to breathe.

The little one will be here any minute.

That's it. The engine's about had it.

We have to rendezvous in six hours.

We're just gonna be late.

And whose fault is that, Lucas?

Ten million is the payment for this one, and you nearly blew it for us.

We still got the thing. The Loki. It's just a tool.

Look, he's getting worse, Steel.

We've gotta get him to a doctor. Yeah.

He's vital to this operation.

How far's the next town?

Town? Are you kidding?

Look, there might be a settlement up ahead.

Locus, dump it.

When you're rid of it, get back here fast.

I just wish next time you might give me a little more warning.

I'll get you down the mountainside. I'll get you into the hands of a real doctor,

okay? Well, hey, wait a minute, Doc. Where are you going? I saved one shot

for you.

Let's take a rain check on that one, Charlie. It's getting late.

I've got another appointment I've got to make. I'm sorry.

All right.

Oh, Charlie, can you do me one favor?

Just quit calling me Doc.

You should have been there, Max. You should have seen it. I'm telling you, it

is a miracle.

I mean, all of a sudden, there he was, this beautiful baby boy. His butt parked

in my hands, and he's just screaming, hollering to beat the band.

It was something.

I can picture you doing that.

That was the first time I ever saw a baby born.

Hope you didn't tell Mrs. Tarwater that.

Sure. Come on, get up. What's for breakfast?

Oh, I don't know.

How about some eggs?

Pigs in a blanket?

And a pot of Maxine's Best?

I don't know. You're the proprietor. You surprise me.

You always surprise me.

Doc.

Julia, get out of here.

Lord Killebrew, as the most widely respected peace negotiator on the

international scene, your new initiatives can bring permanent change

in the Middle East. Good morning, Frank.

Morning, Doc.

It still may be possible to achieve a lasting peace in the Middle East with

this bold new stroke.

If we waited for all conflicts to end before seeking peace, we'd never get

started at all. Peace is not something for those who stand idly and quietly

aside.

Well, I'll drink to that.

So,

Sally, how many moccasins coming along?

You'll have them by Christmas, Doc.

Isn't that what you said last Christmas?

When are you gonna take a look at my bunions?

Why is it this community can't get themselves a real doctor up here, huh?

It's getting so a man can't even do his job anymore.

I'm a bush pilot, and I'm going broke doing the Florence Nightingale bit every

time some sourdough falls off a log around here.

Don't kid us. You love it.

Hey, by the way, Doc, I've been having this problem with my lumbago, and I just

wondered if you could take a look. Why don't you just lower your intake of red

meat? That'll be a good start right there, Frank. Oh, yeah, sorry.

I know you had a tough night, huh?

What about those bears that were hanging around the garbage dump?

Frank had to bust them.

The way I heard it, it was the bears that busted Frank.

Badger, I think you've got to touch a cabin feet.

Maybe you ought to get out and see a little of the world.

Come on in, stranger. The drinks are on Doc.

What can we do for you people?

Could you help us out?

We have someone who needs medical assistance.

Which one's Doc?

Well, I had some medical training in the service.

I'm not a doctor. A friend is hurt.

Well, okay.

I'll take a look at him, and if it's serious, we'll fly him down the mountain

to Gem City.

It's the bullet one.

Congratulations, Doc.

You just got the job.

That should bring our communications back online.

I don't know how long these temporary solder points will hold, but for the

time being, we got communications.

We never have enough time to do anything around here.

String, what kind of a name is L-O-K-I, Loki?

Loki was an ancient Nordic god.

Sort of like old Thor's hitman. Always untrustworthy and up to no good.

Kind of like you might call him the god of bad news.

Now he tells me.

I can't operate on this man.

I'm losing patience.

Okay, all right. Okay, okay. Just hold it. Let her go.

Okay, Maxine, get out of the chopper.

Pick up my emergency kit.

Hold it.

Lucas.

Lucas. You go. Ranger State 28.

Any word on how those construction crews are doing down at Blue River Junction?

And while you're there, do the same to his radio.

But don't damage the flight instruments. We're gonna need them.

What's your status, Hawk?

Have those million-dollar heat sensors come up with anything yet?

I'm sure we got 24 mountain goats, 42 deer, and 36 stray sheep.

Correction, 37 sheep.

Or is it goats?

You just have to keep...

It's two mistakes.

Yes, sir.

It's time to move.

Where is it?

Downstairs.

Do as you're told and nobody will get hurt.

You're not going to put us in there.

There's no air in there. We'll suffocate.

It's a meat locker.

Look, you don't have to put anybody anyplace.

Without a radio up here, we're completely shut off.

I won't go.

Look, I'm not afraid of these clowns. Let them shoot. See if I give a damn.

I'm only going to say this once.

Now move it!

You're supposed to be guarding Doc.

He's unconscious.

It's no use.

Ten men couldn't open that door.

I'm here, Frank.

Doc will get us out.

Won't he, Max?

Sure he will, Sally.

Doc's never let you down yet, has he, Frank?

Where's everybody?

In the meat locker. Now let's go.

You can't put him in there.

You animals are gonna suffocate in there.

Not for long unless you get that chopper in there and put us down exactly where

we tell you to.

All right.

But listen to me.

Just one of my friends doesn't make it out of here, I'm gonna find you.

No matter where you are, I'll find you, all of you.

Well, according to the computer, that's Crystal Lake, home of the Golden Otter

Lodge. Well, when all this is over, I'd better come back and take in a few

rainbows. Hey, yeah.

Hey, that's funny, though. What's that?

Well, there's no people, not even a caretaker or watchdog, not even a single

fly fisherman out by the lake.

Red doesn't even show a fire in the cook stove.

Well, maybe everybody's off on a hike.

Uh-oh. Look at this.

Whatever it is, it's big.

The plates match.

Hey, that's the getaway vehicle string.

Uh-oh, wait a minute.

Radar just overrode. We've got an airborne target bearing 295.

The computer identifies it as a bush chopper. Yep, and he's skimming right

down along the treetops. Uh-huh, and he's in a big hurry.

Let's go check it out.

What is that?

It's company.

UFO, long arm of the law.

They're signaling us.

Sure, they want us to acknowledge their transmissions.

What do we do?

Signal to them we're having radio difficulties.

They just like some guys out hunting to me.

Yeah, but did you get the count?

Pilot.

Three men and a woman.

It's just like the heist team.

I'm going to try and force them down.

Lose them.

I don't think that's not going to be too easy.

Hey, this guy's hotter than a $2 pistol on a Saturday night.

I'm trying to contact Archangel.

Okay, but stay glued to his tail like a foxhound.

Yeah, that's what worries me.

What?

This is his briar patch.

If we don't make it, your friends won't either.

I cannot run this monster. I'm lowed down. He's got twice the power.

We better do something.

Watch it, he's going into that canyon.

Data points didn't hold. Our communications are cooked.

We're going to have to adjust that tail rotor before we can get back in the air.

Well, it could be worse.

We could be stuck halfway in that tunnel with no rotors at all.

Yeah. Pretty fancy flying.

There it is.

Up ahead.

You mean the old radar base?

Don't you know this is federal property? Take it down.

This way.

I can't breathe, Maxie. Air's going bad in here.

It's oxygen depletion.

Pretty soon, it won't be fit to breathe.

I'm here, Frank.

For a while, for a while, I couldn't see.

It was all dark, like I was... like I was... Everything's gonna be okay.

Why would they do this? What have we ever done to them?

I don't know.

To hell with them.

What matters is for us to stay alive so that when Doc gets here, Sheriff Frank

can give him hell for taking his sweet time.

That's right. Doc wouldn't know what to do without us around to pull his leg

once in a while, would he, Frank?

Damn straight, huh?

Frank!

It's that way.

Follow him.

It's quite the little summer camp you got up here, isn't it? What do we do

now, if they capture the flag?

Something like that, yeah.

Follow him.

We're nearly ten hours behind schedule, Steel.

What took you so long? Vehicular difficulties.

Who is this? No one.

Lucas, take him out.

Bury him so even the dogs won't be able to find his bonds.

Yes, sir.

All right, let's move it.

Those people are gonna die back there Lucas. You know that don't you? Oh,

you're breaking my heart. Just let me go stealing Elena They'll never know the

difference the time I get him out of there. He'll be long gone. What do you

say Lucas?

What do you say move?

Come on. What do you say, Lucas?

I say hold it.

Dom. Yeah?

How many foot pounds?

Oh, 35.

You know, String, I was just thinking about that pilot of that chopper.

Dadgummit, I hate to see talent like that turned into crime and murder.

Dom, pilots are people, and there's people on both sides of the law.

Yeah, I reckon so.

Put your hands behind your neck.

Hey, String, that's him.

You flew the chopper through the tunnel, didn't you? I'm not one of them. They

forced me to take him up there.

You gotta help me.

I said put your hands behind your neck.

Look, take it easy, will ya?

They got four people that are suffocating in that tight locker back up

there at the lodge.

We gotta get to them.

Look, these are my friends.

This is my family.

Please.

Please?

We're almost ready.

It's hard to believe that one little box is capable of so much. With this in our

private arsenal, there'll be no target in the world we cannot eliminate.

At the right price.

Always at the right price.

Today's job is just paying our expenses.

You're my guest.

Program.

Ready?

Ready.

You're not sending the pilot up in this? Nothing will be left to chance.

does he know if loki gets in a defensive mode he could for his share he must take

that chance

We'll get you out.

Wait a minute now.

Just hang on. How's everybody in there?

Here.

There you go. There you go. Just hang on there. We'll pull the lock off. We'll

get you right out.

Easy does it now. Easy.

Ow!

You all right?

You're okay.

You're all okay, huh?

How you doing?

Where's Frank?

Oh, no.

So, how is he?

Is he gonna make it?

Well, Doc said a shoulder, and he's got a real nasty bruise on his head. I'm

just fine. Oh, sure, sure.

The man never saw a real criminal his whole life.

Until now.

There's gonna be justice for this.

I know how you feel, Doc. What can we do?

Plenty.

Easy, Huck.

Oh, forget it, String.

String, you're in no condition.

Um, I can fly just fine.

You just show us where they are, huh?

My pleasure.

Dom, what's going on with the radio?

I think we got something.

Hawk, we've been trying to raise you for hours.

Michael, we found Loki.

They've got a chopper. I think they're trying to use it to get out of the

country. I don't think it's that simple.

The description of the thieves fits a new gang of paid assassins operating out

of Europe.

Hitmen. Services to the highest bidder.

I bet my last dollar they're planning to fill an open contract up there in the

North Woods.

Contract? With who?

Lord Killebrew.

Off on an unscheduled fishing trip.

Dead, he's worth 10 million to the right parties.

Well, we better get out there.

Turbos! No, wait!

You can't use turbos. The disengage is locked down. You'll tear off the blades.

This is Escort One. We have a clear landing zone. ETA is three minutes and

counting. Lord Killigrew, looks like a great day for Lake Trout. And it's a

lovely sight indeed.

minutes and they're gone our mission's not over till we confirm the kill then

we fly to the set down point retrieve loki and move on to bigger and better

paydays

This is Union Jack One.

What's he doing up here?

When our Libyan friend sees this film, he's going to be very pleased to know

how we earned his 10 million.

Loki's taking control.

Whoever they are, they're limited by their own flesh and bones.

Loki will blow them out of the sky.

Take over, Doc.

Hang on. I'm killing the engines.

You're doing what?

What's happened? Was he stalled? No, he cut his engines.

Where are the rockets on this thing? Right thumb, right thumb. Right thumb.

Here we go.

Lord Killebrew, we radioed for an escort.

Until they arrive, we'll keep you company.

Gentlemen, I don't know who you are, but thank you.

And so Lord Killebrew completes his historic mission to the peace conference

to inaugurate roundtable talks on the Middle East. And now, live to Lord

Killebrew. As long as we remember that we must strive for peace every day, then

one day...

That goal will be ours.

Bravo, bravo.

There's a man worth saving, huh?

You said it.

Oh, Ben, look at this.

You did a great job on this.

Thanks. Hey, you didn't do too bad up there yourself, considering.

Didn't have much choice, did I?

Well, you know, if you'd have heard Dom's lady,

You might have really been in double trouble.

Now, listen, what I'm trying to say is that seeing as how you lost your rig,

now, I wouldn't mind at all... What Dom is trying to say, Doc, is that

there's always a job open to Santini Air for a real hot-rod pilot like yourself.

I don't know. I think I got everything in the whole world I would want right

here.

Unless the play is fantastic, of course.

Hey, top dollar.

Really? Except Dom still thinks it's 1932.
