Fire in the Sky Page #5

Think we ought to head up there?

Too late. Not enough men.

We'll head out in the morning.

Well, Dallis, you sure can talk.

See, I told you he wasn't

gonna believe your damn story.

Not a goddamn word of it.

Looks like they were

working on it there.

Boy, that truck looks like

it's been to hell and back.

Well, the sun comes up

at 6 in the morning.

We got 50 men, jeeps, horses, dogs.

I wanna call Flagstaff

and get two helicopters.

- That be enough?

- That's plenty.

My hunch is, tomorrow

we'll find Travis Walton.

Of course, I'd be surprised

if we found him in one piece.

Yeah.

You recommend a good motel,

sheriff?

Yeah. Chapparal.

Just after you get inside

to Snowflake,

right there by the water tower.

Still, you have to wonder

how those boys

came up with such a crazy story.

Yeah.

Back on Earth,

we're dealing with a murder.

Plain and simple.

Good night, sheriff.

Good night, Frank.

An Agriculture Department

spokesman acknowledged that...

It's all over the radio. They're making

it out to be a big joke or something.

It's no joke.

You left him there?

I don't know where he is, Dana.

What do you mean,

you don't know where he is?

Just what I said.

Well, how could you just

leave him out there?

The radio was saying something

about outer space.

I didn't just leave him.

And, yeah, there was

something out there, Kate. I...

I... I don't understand. "Out there"?

Is Travis gone?

They're gonna send out

a search party for him tomorrow.

Where is he, Mike?

Where is he, Mike?

Where is he, Mike? Mike...

It's okay. It's gonna be okay.

It'll be all right.

My Father in heaven,

I humbly bow before you.

I ask for your spirit to be with me.

Forgive us, Father,

for what we've done.

I want two-man teams on that ridge.

If that boy's out here,

I wanna find him.

- You got it?

- I got it.

Let's get going, boys.

And God bless you.

You're certain. This is the spot.

I mean, it was night, but...

But, yeah.

Here. It was right here.

This is exactly where he fell.

You said there was

an obvious depression.

That we could see it clearly.

This is it, right here.

Now, where the hell was it?

Was it over there, was it over here?

What are we doing, playing games?

I'm not sure.

I see.

He doesn't believe us.

Where's my brother, Mike?

- What'd you guys do with him?

- Look, Dan, take it easy.

- Back off, Whitlock.

- Hey, we're gonna find him, Dan.

Which one of you is Allan Dallis?

He's not here.

- What about him?

- I did some checking.

Your hired hand's got himself

a nice little criminal record.

Assault with a deadly weapon.

Listen, Mike, if anything

happened to my baby bro,

I'm holding you personally responsible.
