We will not fail.

We're cursed.

Easy, easy! Keep it level!

Steady!

Now, down, down.

Coming through. Permission to pass.

- What do you have?

- A new scope for the sonar station.

- Carry on. Install it.

- I work on the reactor, Captain.

Where is the sonar officer?

He's on a 24-hour pass.

Captain, I initiated the relief rotation.

- It's good for efficiency.

- No passes. All leaves are cancelled.

We need everyone

to do their jobs.

Yes, Captain.

Comrade Captain.

Lieutenant Vadim Radtchenko.

Reporting for duty.

I'm your new reactor officer.

- What was your last posting?

- Nuclear training academy.

He's never operated a reactor at sea.

I was first in my class.

- Report to the reactor control room.

- Yes, sir.

- That way.

- Thank you.

Captain...

He's qualified. Or command

wouldn't have sent him to us.

Officer on deck.

Pavel Loktev. Senior technician.

Stepan Komarov,

Anatoly Subachev, Grigori Dyomin,

Oleg Argunov.

- Show me to the control room.

- Anatoly.

We haven't got all day!

Move it!

Take it! Hurry up! Go, go!

Put it there.

Easy!

Watch out!

I have to stop the truck.

They gave me the wrong drugs!

- That goes over here!

- Stop the truck!

Hey! Hey! Stop, stop!

Wrong drugs!

You gave me the wrong drugs!

You idiot! Stop!

Help me! Help me!

- Doctor!

- It's the Doctor!

He's dead.

Stay till the ambulance comes.

The rest of you, back to work.

Back to work!

Oh, Gavril.

Captain.

Since the solid ballast was loaded

we've had a half-degree list to port.

I've tried everything.

She won't even up.

Half-degree we can handle.

We'll compensate with sea water

ballast till we get back to port.

If we get back to port.

You know what the men

are calling this boat?

The Widowmaker.

Five died from fumes

sealing the tanks.

Another four in construction

and the doctor.

The champagne bottle.

Ten dead. And we haven't left dock.

I'm surprised they confide their fears

to their commanding officer.

A crew is a family.

The captain is the father.

My own father inspired

more fear than he indulged.

I was told there are two versions

about your father.

One, he was a hero

of the Revolution.

Two, he died in the Gulag.

Both are true.

How are those safety checks

going on down below, Captain?

Proceeding.

Misha. There you go.

and he gives half to a rodent.

Yevgeny, wrap this around

your private parts.

The gamma rays can...

You should also take your dosimeter

- once a day to the doctor.

- Why?

He reads it and tells you how long

you have before your torpedo falls off.

Captain?

I'm Gennadi Savran.

Your new medical officer.

What was your last posting?

No, no. I'm the base physician here.
