Good luck.

- Hello.

- Liz, it's Neptune.

- Is Paul all right?

- I don't know, I'm on

my way there now myself.

Listen, do me a favor, will you?

Tell Vickie Blanchard yourself

before they officially--

- Of course.

- And, Liz, tell her,

whatever it takes,

we'll get him out of there.

- Now hear this.

Now hear this.

This is an emergency.

All Deep Submergence

Rescue Vehicle personnel,

prepare DSRV number one

for immediate departure.

A nuclear submarine is

down in the Atlantic.

All DSRV number one

personnel report at once

and prepare for immediate departure.

This is an emergency.

This is an emergency.

- Any station, any

station, this is Neptune.

Over.

- It's getting

a little thick in here.

How are you coming with that purifier?

- Forget it!

- Caruso.

- Sir, number two air

purifier non-fixable, sir!

- Get lost, Caruso.

- I'll fix it in one shot, I told him.

- Any station, this is Neptune.

Neptune.

- It's Richards, sir.

I think he might go, sir.

You want me to move him?

Away from the others, I mean?

- No.

- What do you want me to do if he goes?

- Cover him up.

- Fowler's covering the control room, sir.

- Yeah, I know that.

Where'd you learn to

play the flute like that?

- Home, sir.

Not easy to find a flute

teacher in Nashville.

- They're pretty big on guitars

down there, I guess.

- Yeah.

Do you think we'll ever

get home again, sir?

- Hell, yes.

- My folks, I'm like

their fair-haired wonder.

Annapolis and all.

They're plain people.

They're just very proud of me, sir.

- Well, they're not gonna lose you, Danny.

Anything yet, Harris?

- Nothing yet, sir.

- Keep trying.

Come.

- We're still tight, sir.

Found this, sir.

- Give me about five minutes,

then ask him to come in here, will you?

- Yes, sir.

- Hey!

He's down, isn't he?

- Any station, any

station, this is Neptune.

Over.

- Oh, Dave.

- It goes with a ship and a crew.

- Yeah, so they tell me.

- All yours, skipper.

- Oh, wait a minute!

- We didn't have to surface.

- Dave--

- But you just wanted to ride

into port up there.

Everybody look.

Captain Friendly on the

bridge for the last time!

It's the last time, all right.

- Now, look.

You can either take a couple of aspirin
