...a mysterious creature

almost ten metres in length.

That report is pure speculation.

In 1983, a sonarman

aboard a US warship -

- reported sonar contacts

moving with incredible speed.

Operation Deepwell tried to penetrate

the Earth's crust right here in 1963.

They lost drill bits in the cavern,

sent in four divers, no one returned.

We have no idea what type

of marine life we're dealing with!

- I'm too far behind schedule.

- My work is important, too.

Miss Scarpelli, you're young, you've

worked very hard to come here.

Sometimes, in order to get what we

want, we have to make sacrifices.

Once we can prove that a permanent

colony can exist at this depth, -

- we will conduct research

into all areas of marine biology.

Please, you'll have to excuse me.

- You'll have to keep it dry.

- Are you kidding?

I'm in a leaky can

at the bottom of the ocean.

I wouldn't have this sh*t if we went

topside when we were supposed to.

I know it's a stretch. We'll go up as

soon as the missile site's in place.

When is that?

He's had six months.

Why do the Navy trust this guy to

put up a base? He's not in the Navy.

- He's under a lot of pressure.

- So am I. "Snyder fix this..."

- What would you do without me?

- Probably drown. Get dressed.

I could stay for six months more,

but when you sign on for four, -

- it ought to be four.

- Give it a rest.

- You could do something.

Norris, get me topside. Please.

I'll try.

It's open.

- Captain?

- I'll be right with you. Have a seat.

- Your son?

- Yeah, that's my little Mikey.

The artist. I told him it was

beautiful here. Flowers, trees...

- Must be nice having a family.

- It's what keeps me going.

- You anxious to get home?

- Yes, I am.

Now tell me why you came in here.

Could you talk to Van Gelder about

letting me travel to the missile site?

Collins has discovered

these unusual caverns.

But Van Gelder is blowing them up

in order to place the missiles.

If Van Gelder doesn't get

the platform in place this week, -

- the Navy's gonna close the book

on Deepstar.

I've studied these waters

for six months.

We must proceed with caution.

Those caverns need to be checked.

Otherwise, we don't know

what we're getting into.

To be honest with you, I don't care

if they took a shovel to this place.

I have to make sure Van Gelder gets

the site operational before we return.

- I'm sorry.

- I still think it's a big mistake.

Come on!

- Water rationing can be a b*tch.

- Very funny.

You'll have to wait 24 hours

to finish showering, -

- unless you persuade someone

to let you use their card.

It's getting cold.

- Let her down. Easy.

- I got it.

Easy. Easy...

You a**hole.
