Thunderbirds Page #4

Synopsis: The year is 2010. Teenager Alan Tracy, sent off to a distant boarding school, is the youngest of the sons of Jeff Tracy, a retired American astronaut. Jeff, a widower, has formed International Rescue, and raised his sons to act as a secret, volunteer organization which uses highly advanced technology to save lives worldwide. Jeff and his older sons John, Virgil, Scott, and Gordon, who like Alan were named after the Mercury Seven astronauts are joined in this effort by Lady Penelope and her butler/chauffeur Parker. Their futuristic hardware is largely developed by a genius scientist known as Brains, who lives at the International Rescue base on Tracy Island, somewhere in the Pacific.

- OK, OK, OK, don't panic. Don't panic.

(Bubbling)

On the other hand...

Run!

- We made land.

- Cut them off.

Activating communications blackout.

'Warning. Intruder alert.

Communications failure.'

What the he...devil is going on?

'Warning. Intruder alert.'

- Mr Tracy, do you copy?

- 'lntruder alert.'

Thunderbird 3, please respond.

How'd they find the island? Was it what I did

in Thunderbird 1? Did I ruin everything?

No. That compound we found

could have a transmitting capability.

- We have to do something.

- My dad's in the control room.

- How do we get there now?

- The vents.

Let's go! We have to get a message to my dad.

I'm losing all power. Repeat, I'm losing all power.

Hold on, John. We're coming in.

- 'Gordon, prepare for docking.'

- 'You got it, Dad.'

Reverse main thrusters on my mark.

Three, two, one...

- Easy. Watch the roll.

- Roll index angle minus two degrees.

'lnitiate docking sequence.'

- We're locked on.

- 'Docking sequence complete.'

- Tunnel hatch secured.

- Let's move!

- 'Airlock pressure equalised.'

- We're in. Let's go!

John!

Scott, tackle that fire.

- Am I glad to see you guys!

- Easy, you're hurt.

Virgil, take care of your brother.

Gordon, give me a damage assessment.

Come on, hurry!

(Electronic whining)

One-inch steel plate,

with sequential titanium locking mechanism.

- (Bones click)

- I love a challenge.

Watch out for the guards.

Get in, get in.

- (Whistles nervously)

- (Muffled banging)

Who-o-o-o...?

- What's going on?

- So, this is Mount Olympus.

And these are the Thunderbirds.

I should have guessed.

Jeff Tracy, the billionaire ex-astronaut.

Of course.

Isn't he the one who lost his wife in an accident?

Avalanche, wasn't it? How tragic.

- Just keep going straight ahead.

- OK.

Professor Hackenbacker?

We met at last year's international conference

on nanotechnology.

I thought your thesis on neutrinos

was extremely...

stimulating.

Transom, concentrate!

Sorry, sir.

The command control switch is here.

Fingerprint recognition system.

Professor. Please.

Activate the control switch.

N-n-n-n...

You must be kidding.

We share an interest

in the science of the mind.

The difference is, I was born with my powers.

I tell you, you've barely touched the surface.

Even the strongest minds can be broken.

We can break yours.

Fu... Fu... No way!

Activate the control switch, Prof!

Like a puppet on a string!

(The Hood laughing evilly)

'Activating Command and Control.

'Activating Command and Control.'

- We have control.

- Get up.

Sorry, Professor. Nothing personal.

(Buzzing)

- We got a warning light on our EPS system.

- Attempt manual override.
