Colossus: The Forbin Project Page #2

What?!

Just a minute.

I can't hear you.

Hey! Hold it down!

Kill the noise. Hold it.

It's The White House.

Hello Charles.

Hello Blake.

How is everyone?

Everything's fine down here Charles.

Very good.

Dr. Forbin, we had a power failure

in one of the infra-red satellites.

I cant, I cant quite hear you Dr. Markham.

We had a power failure

in one of the infra-red satellites

about an hour and a half ago

but Colossus switched immediately to the

backup system and didn't loose any data.

Everything's fine now.

Everything's been going so well

we don't know what to do with ourselves

Out of desperation Angela and I

have decided to get married

Finally, finally.

Very good.

Charlie, is that your crew on the phone?

Certainly is Mr. President.

Can I talk to them?

Sure, go ahead sir.

Blake, Hello!

Hello Mr. President.

Hello everyone.

How are you?

Are you having a good time?

Yeah!

Very good.

Ahh.. Folks

I just wanna congratulate all of you

and I wish all of you good luck

on your next projects

Thank you Mr. President.

Have a good rest.

You deserve it.

Thank you.

We will!

That looks like quite a party

you've got going there.

Bye bye.

Have fun.

Here's Dr. Forbin again.

How's the party down there Charles?

I said, Charles,

how's the party at that end?

I wish I could be

there with you

because this party is becoming

a crashing bore.

Please not that song.

Please not.

Dr. Forbin,

send us a souvenir, will you?

Say that again.

What?!

Steal us an ashtray

from The White House, OK?

Very good.

Goodbye.

Haha..

The President would like to say

a few words.

Mr. President!

Thank you Sam.

Everybody have a drink?

No?!

Well, you get one.

I'll wait for you.

Harry Truman, years ago..

when everybody was talking about passing the

buck said that the buck stops right here

but now that's no longer true.

Hear hear!

Colossus will now take that buck.

It will also have to take that

responsibility of a mega-million lives

that all presidents

have had to carry since Roosevelt.

And now, thank to this wonder of science

I no longer..

Ladies and gentlemen,

may I have your attention please.

Quiet, please, ladies and gentlemen.

May I have your attention!

One moment.

Everyone who is not Colossus cleared

must leave the room.

I'm very sorry.

My apologies.

Thank you, thank you very much.

Is this a joke?

Is somebody putting me on?

Sorry sir,

I can't hear a word you are saying

Would you be so kind as to have them stop

singing in the background?

What?

Have them stop singing in the background.

The music.

Oh! I'm sorry.

Stop the music!

What's this, another system?

I have no idea sir,

I'm just trying to find out.
