(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

( LAUGHS )

That is the story my husband always told
as we sat by the campfire...

guarding our farm.

SALKA: We, each of us
in our own country...

has lived that life.

Each of us has slept under the stars...

with a rifle clutched to his side...

waiting for the next enemy raid.

And each of us has crept across
the darkness with that same rifle...

to avenge the last enemy raid.

But today...

now that we have come together...

I pray we can put and end
to the guerrilla warfare...

we have all known since childhood.

And we can put a stop
to terrorist reprisals...

to tears shed in the graves...

of the innocent victims
of those reprisals.

I am more happy than I can say...

that you have all answered my plea...

to come here today and sit...

and talk...

peace...

talk...

(CLAMORING )

NEWSCASTER:
What appeared to be a dizzy spell...

or possibly something more serious,
cut short the opening remarks...

of Madame Salka Pal-Mir,
Prime Minister of Eretz...

as she was opening...

Okay. Easy, easy.

It's going to be okay, Salka.

Okay. Okay.

She was hardly breathing.

I was afraid this would happen.

The plane flights...

the energy it took
to prepare for these talks.

Can you still do
the transplant, Rudy?

I don't know.

I'd hoped for more time,
but after this attack...

The life of our Prime Minister
is in your hands.

Now there is no other choice.

FLIGHT COM:
It's looks good at NASA One.

B-52 PILOT:
Roger.

BCS Arm switch is on.

FLIGHT COM:
Okay, Victor...

B-52 PILOT: Landing Rocket Arm switch is on.
Here comes the throttle.

Circuit breakers in.

STEVE:
We have separation.

B-52 PILOT:
Inboard and outboards are on.

I'm comin' forward with the side stick.

FLIGHT COM:
Look: good.

PILOT:
Ah, Roger.

STEVE:
I've got a blowout in damper three.

SR-71 PILOT:
Get your pitch to zero.

STEVE:
Pitch is out. I can't hold altitude!

B-52 PILOT: Correction. Alpha Hold is off.
Threat selector is emergency.

STEVE: Flight Com. I can't hold it!
She's breaking up! She's breaking...

ANNOUNCER:
Steve Austin. Astronaut.

A man barely alive.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild him.

We have the technology.

We have the capability to make
the world's first bionic man.

Steve Austin will be that man.

Better than he was before.

Better, stronger, faster.

(MAIN TITLE THEME)

Let's get on with it.

Be sure and add these maps
to the working papers.

( PHONE RINGS )
Now, let me see the notes.

She looks perfectly okay again.

That's the nature
of her syndrome, Steve.

Between the attacks, certain drugs
temporarily restore her remarkable vitality.

So, Av Ni...

Our visitors have arrived.

Good morning, gentlemen.

Good morning.
Good morning, Madame.

So, Mr. Goldman,
you have a miracle to save me.

It's highly experimental, Madame.

Dr. Wells tells me...
Please.

Let Dr. Wells speak.

All right, then...

Doctor Av Ni and I have had conducted
exhaustive investigations into your case.

Madame Pal-Mir, you suffer
an acute myocardial infarction...

with papillary muscle necrosis.

RUDY: We've been unable
to locate a suitable donor...

for a conventional heart transplant.

But a bionic transplant does offer
a 30 percent chance of success.

We've achieved a major breakthrough
at our research center...

at Mountain Springs, Tennessee.

Yours would be the first full-scale
bionic heart implant.

How long will I live without your...
interference, Dr. Wells?

With the pressures that you'll probably be
under conducting these meetings...

you may have no more
than a week.

I concur. Absolutely.

So you all want me to give up
my last little remaining time...

for your experiment, hmm?

RUDY: Yes, Madame.

What do you say to this, Shahvid?

I think that without you,
Madame Prime Minister...

there will be no peace conference
of the guerrilla leaders.

Which is better?

To have a week of peace talks,
now that I've got them together...

or gamble with our friends,
have surgery and live for...?

Well, there's no telling,
Madame Prime Minister.

It could extend your
life considerably.

It's a difficult decision.

I cannot possibly finish
the peace talks in a week.

It will take two months...

three months to come up with
anything they will all agree to.

Shahvid, what do they say?

Salka, please.

Don't turn your back on them.

It is the last possibility
we have to save your life.

But that's wonderful! Yes.

Yes, and you may inform the delegation
that Madame Salka Pal-Mir...

is terribly pleased and grateful.

They will wait.
They will wait for ten days.

They've all agreed.

Very well.

I will have your surgery.

I'm very pleased, Madame.

Let's look over her medical history.

I'll see you in Tennessee,
Madame Pal-Mir.

What is your involvement in this?

I'm gonna be your bodyguard.

I already have a bodyguard.

Besides, I have never trusted
very good-looking men.

Well I've never trusted
very good looking Prime Ministers.

(LAUGHS)

What a thing to say.

I have been called many
things in my time.

Ruthless, fanatical, dictatorial.
But good looking?

This is a first!

Salka, please.

My good Doctor Av Ni is
afraid I will die laughing.

Tell me, Av Ni,
you know a better way to go?

I'll have a plane ready
for you in one hour.

No planes.

But it's a short trip.

Planes do not agree with me.

Very well, if you insist.

I'll have Colonel Austin
lead a land convoy.

I am used to choosing
my own bodyguard.

I have very definite reasons why I want
Colonel Austin to be your bodyguard.

Such as?

Well, I'd be glad to explain...

but I must do it in private.

It's all right, Shahvid.
I will be safe with them.

(FILM PROJECTOR WHIRRING)

What you see, Madame,
must be kept in absolute confidence.

National security matters,
I'm sure you understand.

Most people know of Colonel Austin
as an astronaut...

who survived a near fatal crash.

What they don't know is the bionic repair
work which was done...

And the special powers
that it gave him.

I'll get the lights.

This is not some trick
of the camera?

No, Ma'am.

This is the one?

It feels no different.

Both legs are bionic?

And this eye.

The rest of you is human?

Yes, ma'am.

How will it feel?

It'll be a little spooky at first,
but you'll get used to it.

Remarkable.

Truly remarkable.

You may tell the others to come in.

I doubt if it'll work for me, Av Ni,
but I will make the trip.

Thank goodness.

You're going then.

Your feelings will not be hurt...

if I permit Colonel Austin
to escort me to the hospital?

No, no, I understand.

We are in their country.

I'll arrange for an ambulance...

with state highway patrol,
and federal officers escort.

No, wait. This is not a good idea.

SALKA: There are those
who cannot forgive.

They do not wish to stop
their terrorist activities.

They spy on me constantly.

SALKA: And their hirees
can't wait to do away with

so they can put an end
to the peace talks.

OSCAR: But Madame,
you'll be very well guarded.

SALKA: And they are
well armed and determined.

The publicity of my illness
already is a triumph for them.

No. This journey
must be made in secret...

or not at all.

Very well.
If you insist.

I do.

Perhaps we should call
a press conference...

announcing that Madame
Prime Minister is being transported...

to a hospital in New England?

While I go to Tennessee by some means
which my enemies will not suspect.

Ah.

Oscar, what about our mobile
field unit for that kind of a job?

That's a good idea.

We have a vehicle that we
used in original bionic tests.

It's bulletproof, and it's fully
hospital equipped.

Of course, there won't be room
for more than you and Dr. Av Ni.

I want no more.

Very well.
I'll make all the arrangements.

( RADIO STATIC)

That's gonna be tough.

Go get the road maps on everything
from here to Tennessee.

And call your buddies.

Tell them to gas up the cars,
and get here right away.

The police are alerted which
limousine to keep under surveillance...

at a safe distance, of course.

SHAHVID: Wait!

Shahvid.

For luck.

Take it wherever you go.

You'll forgive me for changing
bodyguards temporarily?

Safe journey, successful surgery,
Madame Prime Minister.

(HORN HONKS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

You heard the destination?

Yes, but, it's going to be
a rough job trailing them...

unless you know what
the vehicle looks like.

I do not.

But you'll be able to find them.

I gave Madame
Prime Minister a rose.

Inside the rose is an electronic beeper...

which you'll be able
to pick up with this.

She must not get to that hospital.

There must be no witnesses.

And no survivors.

I thought this wouldn't be necessary.

I thought she would've
died of natural causes.

But we cannot allow...

We cannot tolerate peace
with these guerillas.

We must annihilate them.

Even if we have to destroy her.

Sightseer here.
Identify yourself.

JOHNSON: This is Overview One.
Request your condition.

STEVE: All's well here.

Roger. Route 265 is clear
for the next 30 miles.

Roger. Thanks.
I'll check with you in thirty minutes.

This is Overview One
calling Check Point 6.

MAN: Check Point 6.

Sightseer is enjoying the trip.

Good.

That's fine.

Keep me advised.

Right on schedule, Bill,
and no problems.

Colonel Austin...

you don't approve of female
Prime Ministers, do you?

It's just that I don't know that I'm used to it.

I was raised where the woman...
my mother...

worked mostly in the kitchen
and in the garden.

I guess she could've worked,
had a career.

Lots of women did.

But mostly, of the people I knew,
all the women worked at home.

If I was American, I bet they would not
elected me to run the government.

No, Ma'am.

Why not? Because I am a woman?

Or because I am an old woman?

Just because you're a woman.

I would.

How many American men at the age of ten
could run a tractor like that?

At the age of ten?

That's how long ago my
country liberated me.

We're just getting to it here.

( LAUGHS )
Don't I know.

Men resent me, huh?

I don't resent you.

But if you were my boss,
we'd sure go round and round.

Round and round?
What is it, this round and round?

We'd have lots of arguments.

Oh. Naturally.
And who would win?

That's just the thing.
You can't argue with a woman.

What's hard about it?

It's very easy to argue with me.

Av Ni, tell him how easy
it is to argue with me.

Arguing is easy. Winning is hard.

I win not because I am a woman,
because I am the boss.

It's just not the same.

SALKA: I don't know why.

You are young, modern.

The modern American.

That's why I need your approval, Steve.

It's very important to me.

Should be picking up
a signal pretty soon.

Phil, back off a little.
Give us some slack.

You don't wanna get
a ticket for tailgating.

PHIL: Yeah, okay.

KERN: Hey, there's
a helicopter way up ahead.

STELLEN: It is a military chopper?

Nah. No way.

We're going to have
to close the gap.

Phil, we're speeding up.
Stay with us.

Tell the boys to
watch out for cops.

A soft drink for you.

Thank you.

Pills for you.

Please? Hey!

That girl is in trouble.
Pull over.

I'll radio the helicopter,
they'll see that she gets help.

I want to help her.

But it isn't safe, Salka.

We will stop and help her.

Better stop, otherwise she'll aggravate
herself, and that could be worse.

STEVE." Come in, Overview One.

This is Overview One,
what's the problem, Sightseer?

It's okay, Overview.

We're just gonna stop for a moment
see what that girl needs.

JOHNSON." My orders were that you were
not to stop under any circumstances.

Mine too, but we've been overruled.

Well.

Hey, could you help us?

Yes, my dear.
What is the trouble?

Our van is really stuck.
Could you please try to help get us out?

I wonder, Mr. Bionics...

if you couldn't maybe do it all by yourself.

Under the right circumstances.
I'll see.

Come here, my girl.

Tell me, how did you manage
to get stuck so deep in the mud?

LINDA: It took talent.

Michael and I wanted
to stop for a picnic.

We sure picked the right spot!

Didn't Michael try
and dig it out himself?

Oh he tried and tried, but he
just wasn't getting any place with it.

So now he's meditating on it.

Michael's really into meditation.

(METAL CREAKING)

Michael goes down into his mind,
where the vibes are strongest.

I'm into the guitar.

I see.

LINDA: Hey! It's out of the sand!

How did that happen?

Meditation.
Sometimes it works.

(SLOW BEEPING)

(TIRES SCREECH)

They can't be more
than five miles up ahead.

Good.

Good, and here's one place along this road
that Phil and the boys can pull an ambush.

What do you mean, ambush?

Why don't we just catch up to them
and then just let them have it?

You saw that helicopter,
didn't you?

Yeah, sure.

That was their protection,
that helicopter.

Try anything, and they'd be
down on us with an army in a flash.

We'll just send your friends
to make a fix on their vehicle...

and then race ahead
and set up an ambush.

Then all you and I have to do
is grab that helicopter.

How'?

I've flown that model.

Got a range of 300 miles.

It started from New York
and I'm sure it did.

It has to set down to refuel at...

this field or this one.

Once you and I are
in that helicopter...

uncanny-lawman
nun-urban.

She stopped to do what?

Listen, I gave specific
instructions about this.

You pass the word along, you're not
to stop again no matter what she says.

You got that?

(INTERCOM BUZZES)

How am I going to protect her
if she pulls stunts like that?

Yes! Yes, Rudy.

Oscar? We're having problems
with the atomic power pack.

I can't make do with this one.

I've ordered another one,
but I don't know when it will get here.

OSCAR: How long of a delay will it entail?

10 or 12 hours.

Well, I don't think it will hurt us.

Our Sightseer's condition is stable.

In fact, I think the trip is relaxing her.

I hope you're right,
we need the extra time.

Well, Av Ni?

Your heart is quite regular.

Good.

There's nothing special to see now.
You might as well rest.

He is right.

I want to see more of the countryside.

SALKA: Mountain land!

Perfect for orchards and vineyards.

(SLOW BEEPING)

Aha! I see someone is as smart as I am.

I must taste some of this
fresh farm food.

I absolutely forbid it.

Av Ni: We will not stop again, Salka.

You do not own my life,
do you understand? I do.

SALKA: It is mine every minute.

I intend to spend the next few minutes
talking to a farmer and eating farm food.

You're endangering your
life each time we stop.

I will compromise.

We will stop, but I will not leave
the safety of your company.

Sightseer calling Overview One.

This is Overview One, go ahead.

We're stopping again,
at the vegetable stand up ahead.

Washington's orders were absolutely
negative on any more stops.

I'll take the full responsibility.

Okay, Sightseer. We'll hover as long
as we can, then we've got to refuel.

Roger, Overview.

(SLOW BEEPING)

There's the little beauty
we've been looking for.

PHIL: Let's go set up that road block.

(TIRES SCREECH)

Howdy. Can I help you?

Good day.

Yes, I would like some apples
and some tomatoes.

How has the rain been?

Poorly.

You work the farm alone?

No. I've got two boys.
They help me.

I was born on a farm.

I miss it very much.

No, no. I want to pay.

SALKA: Now how much?

WOMAN: Just a dollar.

WOMAN: Thank you kindly.

May I give you this?

Well...

Please.

Thank you kindly.

Thank you, my friend.

The helicopter went to refuel.

STEVE: What's wrong?

Salka and her two sons
worked their farm together...

until the boys were killed
in a guerrilla raid.

Wonder where the relief crew is.

Better get on the radio and find out.

(LOUD THUDS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Pretty good, huh?

Delicious.

These mountains, Steve,
they remind me so much of our homeland.

Don't they, Salka?

Yes.

(BIONIC EYE SOUND EFFECT)

Trouble up ahead.

(BRAKES SCREECH)

SALKA: What's your opinion, Colonel?
Is that a natural slide?

I don't know,
but I'm gonna try and clear it.

Come with me, Doctor.

Look out, Steve!

(TIRES SCREECH)

(GUNSHOTS)

(GUNSHOT)

(GUNSHOTS)

You all right?
Better keep down.

Overview! Where are you?
We are under attack!

It'll all be over in a minute.

Overview! Overview!

We are under attack, we need help
immediately. Do you read?

STEVE: We're boxed in
and we need your help.

There are a couple on the hill
and two more in the gully behind us.

Overview, we are under attack!
We need help immediately. Do you read?

Read you. We're coming right in.

The helicopter's coming
in to rescue us.

My poor Av Ni.

He risked his life once too often for me.

JOHNSON: This is Johnson.

Alert Overview Commander.

Our chopper's been hijacked.

Sightseer is without protection
just north of checkpoint 10.

(BIONIC EYE SOUND EFFECT)

Salka, can you take
some rough going?

The helicopter's coming to kill us,
not save us.

Do what you have to, Steve.
It's okay.

Okay.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

Are you all right?

Don't worry about me.

The fighting makes me feel young again!

We need cover from that chopper.

Those back there are gaining on us.

For Av Ni!

You're something to have along
on a running fight, lady.

I've been in a few.

Oscar's probably got half of the Army
and Air Force out looking for us right now.

Only half?

We better set down
before we lose them.

Looks like they've come down
to try and finish us off.

I want you to lie down on the floor
and no matter what, you stay there.

I'll be outside.

(GROANS )

Set it down!

Set it down easy!

Salka. It's over! The army helicopters
have come to take us to the...

Salka!

OSCAR: How is she, Steve?

STEVE: Oscar, they're bringing her in.

Tel'! Rudy it's now or never.

OSCAR: Steve, it's no use.

The transplant is no good without
the power pack, and we haven't got one.

STEVE: I've got one, Oscar.

OSCAR: We can't use
one of yours, Steve.

It's out of the question.

STEVE: No it isn't, Oscar.
It's our only chance.

She's going to make it, isn't she?

We have her on the perfusion pump.

It's keeping her alive.

(HISSES, PUMPS)

Let's get on with it, Rudy.

Steve, the bionic system of your arm
is enormously complex.

If I take the atomic
power pack out of your arm...

it could adversely affect any one
of thousands of nerve connections...

to your spinal cord, your brain.

Is there any other way
to power her bionic heart?

I just don't want to risk injuring you.

I didn't bring this woman this far
through so much to stop now.

Flowers for Madame Pal-Mir.

I'm sorry, Steve.

For what?

You're recovering, and I'll be okay
as soon as they get me a new power pack.

Your security chief is
in jail in your country.

The guys he hired are in jail in ours.

And the peace conference
awaits your arrival.

Now what's there to be sorry for?

I was more afraid of this
bionic surgery than I thought.

I can understand that.
I was afraid of it too.

I hoped that I would die
before I got here. Out in the country.

And when the attack came...

I thought perhaps I would be killed
like Av Ni and that would be that.

That's why I insisted on stopping.

I wanted death to take me before
I'd have to have this... bionic surgery.

You're a survivor, Madame Pal-Mir.

Can you forgive me
for being so difficult?

Causing so much trouble?

I forgive you.

Really?

Yes. And I admire you very much.

And I approve of you
one hundred percent.

Thank you for the flowers.

It's my pleasure.

If only Salka Pal-Mir were
forty years younger.

If only Steve Austin were
only thirty years older.
