Thunderbirds Are GO Page #2

Very good, m'lady.

International Rescue, England.

Lady Penelope speaking.

Hi, Penny. Well, I've made my decision.

We're gonna oversee the Zero X launch.

Thunderbirds 1, 2 and 3 are on their way.

Go to the States immediately and ensure

that there's no sabotage attempt this time.

FAB, Jeff. I'll fly over

with FAB 1 right away.

Now, I'll need to move around there freely

on this type of assignment.

Can you pull a few strings

to see that I get the necessary passes?

Will do, Penny. There's a big

press conference tomorrow evening.

- You'll represent a British magazine.

- FAB, Jeff.

You rang, m'lady?

Yes, Parker. Get out the Rolls-Royce.

I'll call the airport - we're taking off

for America with FAB 1 immediately.

Thunderbird 2 from Mobile Control.

You are clear to land.

Mobile Control from Thunderbird 2. FAB.

Well, I guess we're all set.

By morning, Thunderbird 3 will be

in position to observe the launch path,

- and we've got all our gear here.

- Thanks.

I guess that's all we can do

for the moment.

See you at the press conference tonight.

No, thanks. As far as we're concerned,

the only good publicity is no publicity.

And in conclusion, as I always say,

the only bad publicity is no publicity.

So have a good conference,

but please be brief.

Our astronauts can only

spare you half an hour

as they have a very busy schedule

ahead of them tomorrow.

- Captain Travers?

- Yes, ma'am?

I'm Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward,

representing The Universal Mirror.

First question:
tell me,

what do you find most frightening?

The ordeal of this press conference

or your flight tomorrow in Zero X?

Without question,

this press conference, ma'am.

Thank you, Captain Travers.

Now, I'm sending a messenger over

with a small St Christopher,

specially struck for the occasion

by The Universal Mirror.

I would like to tell my readers

that you'll be wearing it during the flight.

- It'll be a pleasure, Lady Penelope.

- That's very kind of you.

Well, it looks as if my time is up.

Best of luck for tomorrow.

Captain Paul Travers.

Package from Lady Penelope,

Universal Mirror, sir.

Right.

There'll be three crew

and two scientists. Right...

Right again.

Yep, at 1400 hours tomorrow.

That's right. Six weeks and two days.

I'm afraid I can't answer that question.

I'm afraid you'll have to

refer that question to the PRO.

Why, sure. We'll do anything

to help the press.

I've got a feeling that the takeoff

tomorrow is gonna be just fine.

60 minutes to liftoff.

Commence Zero X pre-flight assembly.

Thunderbird 2 from Mobile Control.

- Are you ready, Virgil?

- Standing by, Scott.

Mobile Control calling Thunderbird 3.
