00:02:20White Sands calling Moon Rocket 4 code 63.
00:02:23Can you hear us?
00:02:26White Sands calling Moon Rocket 4 code 63.
00:02:30Can you hear us?
00:02:40White Sands calling Moon Rocket 4 code 63.
00:02:44Can you show any sign of recognition?
00:02:56White Sands calling Moon Rocket 4 code 63.
00:03:11Can you show any sign of recognition?
00:03:14White Sands calling Moon Rocket 4 code 63.
00:03:19Can you show any sign of recognition?
00:03:23Well...
00:03:24White Sands calling Moon Rocket 4 code 64.
00:03:51What do you know?
00:03:55You all right, Helen?
00:03:56Sure, Kip.
00:03:57Thanks.
00:04:09We're in space.
00:04:13We've made it.
00:04:25Oh, brother.
00:04:27Am I gonna collect some bets?
00:04:35White Sands calling Moon Rocket 4 code 63.
00:04:37White Sands calling Moon Rocket 4 code 63.
00:04:37Come in.
00:04:38Helen, there's no one here but us space people.
00:04:41Not yet.
00:04:42First, I want your initial reports.
00:04:44Remember, this is a scientific expedition and not a stunt.
00:04:49How are you on course, Helen?
00:04:51How are you on course, Helen?
00:04:51On course.
00:04:52Are you sure?
00:04:53Quite.
00:04:55You know, lad, I have the strangest feeling as though all this has happened before.
00:05:01White Sands to Moon Rocket 4 code 63.
00:05:04Come in.
00:05:05Rocket 4 to White Sands.
00:05:07Granger speaking.
00:05:08Can you hear me?
00:05:10Can we hear you?
00:05:12Come in.
00:05:12We have passed the 2,000 mile level, are traveling in space.
00:05:16Speed.
00:05:17Seven miles a second.
00:05:20Motors smooth.
00:05:21Fuel consumption point 865.
00:05:24Temperature density of atom chamber unchanged.
00:05:27Nitrate pictate acid secure.
00:05:29We will report again at 1400.
00:05:32Over and out.
00:05:33Wait a minute, Commander.
00:05:34There's a world full of people listening in.
00:05:36Are you all right?
00:05:37But we have a few words from the crew.
00:05:39No.
00:05:39Oh, come on, lad.
00:05:40Don't be stuffy.
00:05:42All right.
00:05:42Speak from your stations.
00:05:43But be brief.
00:05:45Rocket 4 to White Sands.
00:05:47Stand by.
00:05:48The next voice you hear will be Kip Reisner, co-pilot.
00:05:51All I gotta say is watch out for that first step.
00:05:53It's up hip.
00:05:55Helen Salinger, navigator.
00:05:59Hello, Alpha.
00:06:00We're on our way.
00:06:03This is Doug Smith, radio operator.
00:06:05I'm gonna bring you a piece of that green cheese for sure.
00:06:09Walt Wallace, engineer.
00:06:10We're humming along, folks.
00:06:12That new lubrication by the Delphite oil company sure turned the trick.
00:06:17Over to you, White Sands.
00:06:19That plug oughta make a couple of grand, huh?
00:06:23Over, Randall.
00:06:24Hold on, Rocket 4, code 63.
00:06:26We wanna switch you over to Washington and General Rayburn.
00:06:28Members of Atomic Rocket Group 4,
00:06:30our congratulations on your magnificent achievement.
00:06:33You are embarked on a space journey of over 200,000 miles.
00:06:40At 25,000 miles per hour,
00:06:43you have 10 hours flight ahead of you.
00:06:47To the scientific ingenuity that made this flight possible,
00:06:51there must now be added
00:06:52your skill,
00:06:55your courage,
00:06:56and our prayers.
00:07:03Weight balance to right.
00:07:05Something's embedded in our rear section.
00:07:07The atomic chamber.
00:07:09Heat radiation going up fast.
00:07:11Must be a meteor can we shake it.
00:07:13Maybe centrifugal force will dislodge it.
00:07:14Now the animal circling.
00:07:24Oh, my boy.
00:07:47We've dumped it.
00:07:47Nice work, Lert.
00:07:49We've been paying more attention to our work,
00:07:50this might not have happened. Doug, didn't the meteor appear in the view screen? I don't know,
00:07:55sir. I was listening to the... Exactly. Well, for the rest of this journey, we operate strictly by
00:08:02the book. The planners of this expedition have foreseen all contingencies. We hope. We do more
00:08:07than hope. We work with confidence. Now then, Helen, will you set us on course? Yes, sir. Doug,
00:08:14tune in White Sands. I'm trying, sir, but there's no pip. I'm afraid I'm out of business. Commander,
00:08:19the atom chamber, the nitric acid. One of the containers must have broken. If the acid reaches
00:08:26the fuel chamber, we'll explode, won't we? Turn on the water line. That'll utilize it. Nothing
00:08:31happened, sir. Pour it on. It won't work, sir. It's got to work. What are you doing? I want to
00:08:39check
00:08:39that obstruction on the water line. The acid will burn through that soup in one minute flat. I'll just
00:08:43need 59 seconds. I hope. Come back here. Cap!
00:09:1310 seconds.
00:09:1412 seconds.
00:09:19They're broken.
00:09:2512 seconds.
00:09:3010 seconds.
00:09:3212 seconds.
00:09:3712 seconds.
00:09:4213.
00:10:10So, let's go.
00:10:40So, let's go.
00:11:10So, let's go.
00:11:17He's done it.
00:11:19It's under control.
00:11:38So, let's go.
00:11:40So, let's go.
00:11:43So, let's go.
00:11:49Let's go.
00:12:16Let's go.
00:12:18Well, I guess I'm not out of business.
00:12:20You must have skin like a rhinoceros.
00:12:22It didn't even blister.
00:12:23We can't all be beautiful.
00:12:26Is Laird sore?
00:12:27After all, I did go over his head.
00:12:29Well, he gave us another lecture on discipline.
00:12:32He's right, you know, Kip.
00:12:33We came only this far because we did it by the book.
00:12:36Some things aren't in the book.
00:12:39I'm okay.
00:12:39Go and talk to Laird.
00:12:40Hmm?
00:12:41Go on.
00:12:42After all, you're his girl.
00:12:43For the duration of this trip, the only relation I have with Laird is a scientific one.
00:12:48This is no time to pamper with the emotion.
00:12:51I bet you got that from him.
00:12:53It's true.
00:12:54It's hooey.
00:12:55You can't turn love on and off like a faucet.
00:12:59Believe me, baby, if I ever fell in love with you, I'd chase you across the world around
00:13:02the moon and all the way stations in between.
00:13:10Go on, beat it.
00:13:13All right, hero.
00:13:14I'll go talk to Laird.
00:13:16But if you don't mind, it'll only be about our lamp.
00:13:24You two make a great team.
00:13:25And strong mind and strong back.
00:13:28I suppose so.
00:13:33View screen should be okay now, sir.
00:13:36Thanks, Doug.
00:13:43Helen, who is Alpha?
00:13:46Alpha?
00:13:47On the radio, you said Alpha.
00:13:49We're on our way.
00:13:51I don't remember saying that.
00:13:53Probably just a touch of space madness.
00:13:56You know, there's one school of thoughts that we'd all go insane.
00:14:01Alpha.
00:14:16You better pick your landing spot and start figuring.
00:14:19I already have.
00:14:20We're on course.
00:14:22That's what I call a navigator.
00:14:23It's a valley on the dark side of the moon.
00:14:27The dark side?
00:14:29How could you possibly know anything about the dark side?
00:14:32All men have ever seen is the bright side.
00:14:34Well, the bright side cuts across part of this valley.
00:14:37You can just barely see it on the photographs.
00:14:40Well, why there?
00:14:41We'd plan to study the bright side and then circle to the dark side.
00:14:44Please, Laird.
00:14:46This is a perfect landing place.
00:14:47Believe me.
00:14:48I don't know why I know it, but...
00:14:52I know it for sure.
00:14:54You're the navigator.
00:14:56We'll take a look at it anyway.
00:14:58Please take your stations, please.
00:14:59We're coming in.
00:15:28Start the retarders, Walt.
00:15:44Start the retarders off.
00:15:45Stabilizers on.
00:15:48Unbuckle, Val.
00:15:49Now you keep picking, Helen.
00:15:51I knew it was the right place.
00:15:54Someday I'm going to ask you how.
00:15:56What do we do first, Laird?
00:15:57Want to check the ship?
00:15:58Do a repair job if necessary?
00:16:00Well, let's make some findings.
00:16:02We're on the moon, not in a machine shop.
00:16:04I'll go along with Helen on that.
00:16:06We'll make a short exploratory tour.
00:16:08Come back, grab some sleep, and then we'll look the ship over.
00:16:10Okay, but I'd feel a lot better if I was sure we were ready to take off at a moment's
00:16:13notice.
00:16:13Why?
00:16:14It's my Navy background.
00:16:16In any engagement, be prepared to disengage.
00:16:18Well, this isn't the Navy.
00:16:20Come on, Doug.
00:16:21Help me into my suit.
00:16:25These shoes are heavy.
00:16:28You won't notice it when you get outside.
00:16:30I want everybody to check everybody else's equipment.
00:16:33It must be set number two because of the absolute cold in the dark side.
00:16:38And when you get out there, remember, stay on the dark side.
00:16:41Without any oxygen, what can you possibly want with cigarettes?
00:16:43I feel more at home carrying them.
00:16:46About as silly as that gun, Kip.
00:16:48You know there's no life on the moon.
00:16:50I guess I'm like Helen.
00:16:51I feel more at home that way.
00:16:53I wish you'd tell him not to, Laird.
00:16:55Either we're on a scientific expedition or we're a bunch of boy stouts on an Audi.
00:17:01I agree with you, Helen.
00:17:02But I guess it won't do any hurt.
00:17:04There's too much infantile romanticism in this crew.
00:17:09Well, I guess I'd better leave this behind, then.
00:17:11I was going to do this outside, but I guess I can wait.
00:17:14What are those?
00:17:15First letters from the moon.
00:17:17I even got my own cancellation stamp.
00:17:19Ought to be worth a couple of hundred bucks apiece.
00:17:21Why don't you make up about 50 of them?
00:17:23Brings the price down, boy.
00:17:24Stamps has got to be rare.
00:17:26Mr. Walters, when you're ready.
00:17:29All set, sir.
00:17:30I'll go first.
00:17:32You wait here.
00:18:11I'll go first.
00:18:21It works.
00:18:23Come ahead.
00:18:41Come ahead.
00:18:47Come ahead.
00:18:53Come ahead.
00:18:53Come ahead.
00:18:58Come ahead.
00:19:02Come ahead.
00:19:02Come ahead.
00:19:04Come ahead.
00:19:05Come ahead.
00:19:06Come ahead.
00:19:06Come ahead.
00:19:07Come ahead.
00:19:08Come ahead.
00:19:09Come ahead.
00:19:10Come ahead.
00:19:45Think of it, Helen.
00:19:47Two hundred thousand miles away we were.
00:19:50Yet, we knew it would be like this.
00:19:53We'll head that way.
00:19:56Any particular reason?
00:19:58There's a cave in the side of the crater over there.
00:20:01I noticed as we were settling in.
00:20:03Buried treasure, perhaps.
00:20:05Kit, would you mind very much if we did operate by the book for a while?
00:20:09Whatever the commander says.
00:20:11Single file.
00:20:39Look out!
00:20:40Meet at your right!
00:20:50Oh, my God.
00:21:20Here we are at the dividing line.
00:21:22It may not seem like much to us, but if Helen will fish me out one of those silly cigarettes,
00:21:27I'll show you something.
00:21:52Here we go.
00:22:15There it is.
00:22:17Just like Helen said.
00:22:29I wonder if the commander would permit an observation.
00:22:32Oh, come on, Kip.
00:22:33We don't have to get that formal.
00:22:35Well, I only wanted to point out that from the angle the ship entered the crater, it would have been
00:22:39impossible for Miss Salinger to spot that cave.
00:22:43You mean she just guessed it was there?
00:22:46If she could guess a landing spot on the dark side of the moon, I suppose she could guess a
00:22:51cave.
00:22:52What are you driving at?
00:22:53I don't know.
00:22:54But I'll guarantee it isn't in the book.
00:23:00Come on.
00:23:01Let's go.
00:23:01Come on.
00:23:03Come on.
00:23:17Come on.
00:23:20Come on.
00:23:22Wait a minute.
00:23:23Wouldn't it be wise for someone to stay behind and guard the ship?
00:23:26I don't think anybody will take it.
00:23:30Helen.
00:23:31Helen!
00:23:32Come on.
00:23:33Come on.
00:23:34Please watch.
00:23:35Stay right where you are.
00:23:37I don't want to lose anybody.
00:23:46Exactly as I dreamed it.
00:23:49Or did I?
00:23:51Maybe this is the dream.
00:23:55It's pretty weird.
00:23:58Have you had enough?
00:24:00If you're tired, we can go back.
00:24:02No.
00:24:03We go on this way.
00:24:11Don't cry.
00:24:36Somebody miscalculated on these boots,
00:24:38They're far too heavy.
00:24:40They were all right outside.
00:24:43I can't understand it.
00:24:45Blair.
00:24:47Look.
00:24:50Moisture.
00:24:51How can there be water without atmosphere?
00:24:54Impossible.
00:24:56This may be something that only looks like water.
00:24:59Scientists don't know enough to come in out of the rain.
00:25:01Blair, has it ever occurred to you that maybe this is atmosphere?
00:25:04On the moon?
00:25:05Could be why it's hard for us to walk.
00:25:06Well, this atmosphere has got to be gravitational pull to hold it.
00:25:10Even I know that.
00:25:12We'll go back and get our instruments.
00:25:14That won't be necessary.
00:25:18This will prove it.
00:25:21It's burning.
00:25:22That means oxygen.
00:25:25One at a time.
00:25:35It's air, all right.
00:25:45When I tell them I was the first man to breathe on the moon.
00:25:47Maybe we can bottle this stuff for safe.
00:25:50Moon mist for chronic coughs and asthma.
00:26:01Well, there.
00:26:02You'll have to admit that one wasn't in the book.
00:26:04How do you figure it?
00:26:05That makes you very happy, I suppose.
00:26:09Huh?
00:26:10Just curious.
00:26:11Magnetic field on the dock side could exert a gravitational pull.
00:26:16A special one.
00:26:19Of course, we'd have to verify it.
00:26:20And this is a natural decompression chamber, isn't it, sir?
00:26:25We're almost at the end.
00:26:27How do you know we're almost at the end?
00:26:31Well, it stands to reason the air isn't stuffy, so there must be an opening nearby.
00:26:36All right.
00:26:37We'll leave the suits here.
00:26:41Well, I know one thing that goes with me.
00:26:43This.
00:26:44Where there's oxygen, there can be life.
00:26:47And where there's life, there's death.
00:26:49There you go again, Kip.
00:26:51Why is it that the unknown always frightens people?
00:26:54Why can't we expect love and friendship instead of death?
00:26:57I'm all for love.
00:26:58And friendship.
00:26:59But I worry.
00:27:01Now, if you don't mind, Laird, I'll take the lead.
00:27:03But I do mind, Kip.
00:27:05In fact, I was about to suggest that you bring up the rear.
00:27:32Well on, don't move.
00:27:40sini.
00:27:42Don't count.
00:27:42Good day!
00:27:42Look out!
00:27:43Stop!
00:27:43Look out!
00:27:44Oh my.
00:27:51Look out!
00:27:53corre.
00:27:54And what is that?
00:27:56Ah!
00:27:59Ah!
00:28:02We are back and forth!
00:28:11Helen.
00:28:13Easy, easy.
00:28:16Easy done.
00:28:17We killed him.
00:28:20Oh, isn't it funny?
00:28:22Honey, I... I knew about everything but this.
00:28:27Forgive me, Kip.
00:28:28I'm so sorry I was cross with you.
00:28:31You all right, Helen?
00:28:33Yes. Just let me rest a little.
00:28:38Lord, you come with me. We're going back and guard those spacesuits.
00:28:42The rest of you will follow as soon as Helen can walk.
00:28:44Doug, take this.
00:28:46Any objections? Laird?
00:28:49No, Kip. Go ahead.
00:28:59Come on. Let's go. Look around.
00:29:09Come on. Let's go.
00:29:18Look around.
00:29:48What happened?
00:29:51Nothing. I...
00:29:52I just opened my eyes and missed you.
00:29:56I'm all right now. Should we go on?
00:29:58Kip and Wall have come back to suits. We can join them if you're able.
00:30:02Back? Why back?
00:30:03I think we've had enough for one day.
00:30:05No. You've been listening to Kip. He's just afraid.
00:30:09I don't think Kip was afraid of anything, Helen. But we don't know what's ahead.
00:30:12Well, I'll tell you then. Adventure, discovery, knowledge. Isn't that why we came?
00:30:17Of course. But another day.
00:30:19Now. If you don't want to come with me, I'll go all alone.
00:30:22You listen to me. I'm still commander of this expedition.
00:30:25You're not my commander. I know where I want to go, and I'm going there.
00:30:29Helen. What's cutting into you?
00:30:30Take your hands off me.
00:30:31Granger, they're gone.
00:30:33The space suits? You must have missed them.
00:30:34They're gone all right, commander.
00:30:35We went back to the place we left them.
00:30:36There were marks on the SAMs that they'd been dragged away.
00:30:38Just to make sure we checked back as far as we could.
00:30:40Tharnia ran out of air.
00:30:41But without suits.
00:30:42We're trapped.
00:30:42Unless we find the joker that took them.
00:30:44I'll have that gun now.
00:30:45That settles the argument Laird and I were having.
00:30:48If we can't go back, the obvious thing to do is go forward.
00:30:51You seem very proud of yourself, Helen.
00:30:54I am.
00:31:08There it is.
00:31:14You said that as if you knew it all the time.
00:31:18It ain't true.
00:31:19There can't be another world in the bowels of the moon.
00:31:23That's exactly what it is.
00:32:02Cold.
00:32:04I'd say there hasn't been a fire lit in this place in many years.
00:32:08Perhaps centuries.
00:32:11Probably an extinct civilization.
00:32:14Took some form of intelligence to steal those space suits.
00:32:17Of course it did.
00:32:19In a very high form to build a place like this.
00:32:22You seem to know all about it.
00:32:24What do they look like?
00:32:26Hey!
00:32:27Come here!
00:32:33Look.
00:32:34It's all ready for lighting.
00:32:36You bring your cigarettes and matches?
00:32:38I told you I didn't feel at home without them.
00:32:46Oh, that's better.
00:32:47I was getting a mighty lonely feeling.
00:32:49Helen.
00:32:50Helen, I asked you a question.
00:32:52What?
00:32:54You seem to know this place was here.
00:32:56What else do you know?
00:32:58Nothing.
00:33:00Certainly I've never been here before.
00:33:02I must have dreamed.
00:33:03Did you dream who stole our space suits?
00:33:05Of course not.
00:33:06I grant you, Kip, this is something we didn't foresee.
00:33:09But let's not lose our senses completely.
00:33:11Somebody stole our suits.
00:33:13And that somebody must still be around here.
00:33:17Hey!
00:33:18You out there!
00:33:20Hey!
00:33:22You out there!
00:33:23That guy sounds lost.
00:33:25Come on, Doug.
00:33:26Let's look around.
00:33:48Hey!
00:34:03Help!
00:34:07Help!
00:34:12What happened?
00:34:13Something jumped in there.
00:34:14What sort of thing?
00:34:15I couldn't tell.
00:34:15It jumped on my back and tried to get in my throat.
00:34:17Where's Helen?
00:34:18I don't know.
00:34:19But I caught a glimpse of her during the fight
00:34:20and she was just standing there watching.
00:34:22Helen!
00:34:24Helen!
00:34:25Helen!
00:34:27Helen!
00:34:30A fire!
00:34:36Helen!
00:34:38Spread out quickly.
00:34:55I got one over here!
00:34:58Let's have a look at it.
00:35:12Anything in the book about that, Professor?
00:35:15I don't know what to believe anymore, Kip.
00:35:17Well, you can believe this.
00:35:18They were definitely after this gun.
00:35:19From here on, we stick together so they can't pick us off one by one.
00:35:22I've got a hunch Helen will be back.
00:35:24We'll wait.
00:35:24We'll...
00:35:25We'll give her one hour.
00:35:29I'm still in command here, Kip.
00:35:32That's right, Laird.
00:35:33If you order us to separate and go hunting for Helen,
00:35:37we will.
00:35:41No.
00:35:43We'll wait.
00:35:48I am here, Alpha.
00:35:50It has been a long journey, Helen.
00:35:53Welcome to the moon.
00:35:55This is my second-in-command, Beta.
00:35:58And this is Lambda.
00:36:01The others you will meet in time.
00:36:04But there's still so much I...
00:36:07I don't understand.
00:36:20You are now one of us.
00:36:22Ask anything.
00:36:24Well, I...
00:36:27I still can't be sure whether you're speaking my language or I yours.
00:36:31We need no language, Helen.
00:36:34We can project our thoughts long distances, as you well know.
00:36:38Someday we will teach you.
00:36:40In the meantime, we will speak your tongue.
00:36:43Just as we speak Oliver's tongues.
00:36:46Remember that our generation predates yours by centuries.
00:36:50Yes.
00:36:51What you taught me about celestial navigation made me look like quite a genius.
00:36:56But why me, Alpha, and not the others?
00:36:59We have no use for men.
00:37:02What Beta means is that we have no contact or control over them.
00:37:06As we do among ourselves.
00:37:09It seemed rather difficult to get a crew entirely composed of women.
00:37:13We decided to concentrate on you.
00:37:16With your wisdom, how is it you never came to us on Earth?
00:37:21Our ancestors made one fatal error, Helen.
00:37:24When they discovered that the atmosphere around us was beginning to disappear, they decided to conserve oxygen.
00:37:34Do you know what that meant?
00:37:36Maximum energy reduction.
00:37:39Planned genocide to reduce population.
00:37:43Then, when we discovered we were only postponing the inevitable.
00:37:47It was too late.
00:37:49Our only hope was that a spaceship would come to us.
00:37:52And now that we're here, you will take back only three of us.
00:37:58We.
00:38:00Only women.
00:38:02We have no men.
00:38:05But my knowledge is limited to navigation.
00:38:08Can you run the ship without them?
00:38:11They will teach us how.
00:38:13But you said you had no control over them.
00:38:16Show us their weak points.
00:38:18We'll take care of the rest.
00:38:22It's strange.
00:38:25I should care what happens to them.
00:38:29And yet I don't.
00:38:31No.
00:38:32You see, we don't care.
00:38:35And you are one of us.
00:38:42All right, Kip.
00:38:44It's one hour.
00:38:45You were wrong.
00:38:46Wait a minute.
00:38:49I hear somebody.
00:39:09Where have you been?
00:39:11I've been trying to convince them we're their friends.
00:39:14You know, Kip, it was your gun that frightened them.
00:39:17I promised them you'd put it away.
00:39:19Then unpromise.
00:39:20This gun stays out until they produce the space suits.
00:39:23Try to convince them of that.
00:39:25Have no fear, Lieutenant Reisner.
00:39:27Your suits are safe and will be returned to you at the end of your visit.
00:39:31Helen, they speak English.
00:39:33Theirs is an ancient culture, Laird.
00:39:35Their communication system is far in advance to ours.
00:39:39You want to be friends?
00:39:41Then bring the space suits here and now.
00:39:42Oh, don't be a bore.
00:39:44It's all right, my dear.
00:39:45I understand.
00:39:47Your suits will be returned to you in the morning, Lieutenant.
00:39:51Good.
00:39:51That's when I'll start being friendly.
00:39:53Pay no attention to him.
00:39:54He's only the co-pilot.
00:39:56Commander Granger here is our chief pilot and head of our expedition.
00:40:00This is Doug Smith, radio operator.
00:40:03And Walt Walters is our engineer.
00:40:05I don't know all of their names yet, but this is Alpha, Lambda, and Beta.
00:40:10And most important of all, here is food.
00:40:15Alpha?
00:40:16Yes.
00:40:17They seem to have mastered the art of mental telepathy.
00:40:20I don't understand it yet myself, but she was sending me messages all the way.
00:40:27Should we take a chance?
00:40:29Why not?
00:40:35Delicious.
00:40:37Tastes a little like honeydew melon.
00:40:47May we serve you, Earth Men?
00:40:50Well, thanks, Lambda.
00:40:52Come, sit down.
00:40:54Delighted.
00:41:12Come on, Kip. It's great.
00:41:15I brought my dinner with me.
00:41:18Rations?
00:41:19He must be nuts.
00:41:21Yes, sir.
00:41:23This is a nice layout.
00:41:35I wonder what the folks back home would think if they knew I was having dinner with a beautiful moon.
00:41:40Do you have a special Earth girl?
00:41:43No, nobody special.
00:41:45How about you?
00:41:49Incidentally, where are your menfolk?
00:41:52You're the first man I've ever seen.
00:41:55Ours died off when I was still a child.
00:41:58Gee, it's a lucky thing we came along.
00:42:01Oh, I mean, so you'd know what a man looks like.
00:42:05I mean, I'm sorry about your menfolk, Lambda.
00:42:10I didn't mean it any other way.
00:42:12I understand, Doug.
00:42:42But after the navigator has set the course, how do you adjust this automatic pilot?
00:42:48Well, that's pretty complicated, and besides, it's restricted information.
00:42:54Let's talk about your people.
00:42:56I want to know how that girl, Lambert, disappeared from right under our noses,
00:42:59and how you were able to contact Helen before we even hit the moon.
00:43:03That commander is a good deal more complicated than your automatic pilot.
00:43:07But if you will explain the wand, I will at least try to indicate how we have achieved complete control
00:43:12over our bodies and minds.
00:43:14Perhaps some other day.
00:43:16I'm sure you understand, but I'm under orders.
00:43:19As you wish.
00:43:22Some of our wine?
00:43:32Say, you wouldn't have any small works of art that I could take home with me as a souvenir, would
00:43:37you?
00:43:40You may have this.
00:43:41Thanks. I was admiring it.
00:43:44What's it made of?
00:43:45You have no metal on earth to compare.
00:43:48We call these things slave bracelets.
00:43:51They're made out of gold sometimes.
00:43:52Gold? Why?
00:43:56The carriage trade. Plenty expensive.
00:43:59Gold. But it's so common.
00:44:03Gold common?
00:44:04We don't even bother to dig it.
00:44:07You mean it just hangs around loose?
00:44:10There's a place near here where there's more gold than you could carry away in your rocket ship in a
00:44:16hundred years.
00:44:17I don't believe it.
00:44:19At least not until you show me.
00:44:22I'll make a bargain with you.
00:44:25You take me aboard your rocket ship, I'll show you the cave of gold.
00:44:32Uh-uh. The skipper wouldn't buy it.
00:44:34Just wouldn't go for it.
00:44:36Besides, we'd need those spacesuits to get out of that tunnel.
00:44:40I know where the spacesuits are.
00:44:44A whole cave.
00:44:46Full of real gold.
00:44:48And you'd keep it a secret?
00:44:50Just between us? You wouldn't tell anybody?
00:44:54Or on Saturday nights, you can go out on the town.
00:44:57Dance, drink, just laugh a little too hard.
00:45:02I'd like the driving down to the beach best.
00:45:07Stretching out on the sand.
00:45:10Just a boy and a girl together.
00:45:14And...
00:45:14And maybe what you call a...
00:45:17A coke.
00:45:19You would?
00:45:21That's what I like best, too.
00:45:24With the right girl, of course.
00:45:28To the everlasting friendship of our peoples.
00:45:32Amen.
00:45:36And now I know you must be tired.
00:45:39We will return tomorrow.
00:45:41And with your spacesuits, my foolish friend...
00:45:44I can be head.
00:45:52Well, I hope you had yourselves a time.
00:45:55If we didn't blunder ahead and start a war between the worlds, it's no thanks to you.
00:45:59No thanks asked.
00:46:00The question is, who's going to stand the first two-hour watch tonight?
00:46:03Helen?
00:46:03What for?
00:46:04Walt?
00:46:05Where is Walt?
00:46:06Last I saw, he was wandering off with Bader.
00:46:09How fast worker that guy.
00:46:11That's not funny.
00:46:13Walt!
00:46:15Walt!
00:46:17Walt!
00:46:21Walt Walters!
00:46:28Didn't we agree to stick together?
00:46:30I don't think he's in danger, Kip.
00:46:32What do you think, Miss Salinger?
00:46:34I think you're spoiling for a fight.
00:46:36You're so right.
00:46:37Would you like to step into my private office?
00:46:38Any time.
00:46:39Kip!
00:46:40Don't worry.
00:46:41I won't slug her.
00:46:42Doug, stand guard.
00:46:44Okay, Kip.
00:46:44This way, Miss Salinger.
00:46:51Now then, which side are you on?
00:46:53I didn't know we had sides.
00:46:54I'm convinced you deliberately let us into this.
00:46:56I'd be very happy if you'd unconvinced me.
00:46:58I don't know what you mean.
00:46:59Look, Helen, I have a very high regard for you.
00:47:01You're smart, you have courage, and you're all woman.
00:47:04And if it hadn't been for Laird, I'd have tried to make it you and me a long time ago.
00:47:07Flattery will get you no place.
00:47:08Helen!
00:47:09Take your big hands off me!
00:47:11Not until you level with me.
00:47:13Oh, come on now. I'm not hurting you that much.
00:47:19Don't let go, Kip.
00:47:21Helen, what's the matter?
00:47:23Danger, Kip.
00:47:24They want to kill you.
00:47:25They'll take the spaceship, and they'll make me go with them.
00:47:27Well, how?
00:47:29They can, Kip.
00:47:30They control me.
00:47:31They control you?
00:47:32Even with Laird, I liked you best.
00:47:35But Laird knew more, and they wanted me with him.
00:47:38They don't control you now, do they?
00:47:39No.
00:47:41But hang on.
00:47:43Hold on tight.
00:47:44You're doggone right, I will.
00:47:47You're doggone right.
00:48:02You won't tell Laird about this, will you?
00:48:05Well, one of us will have to.
00:48:07I don't want to hurt him, and I'll handle it.
00:48:11Let's get back to Earth first.
00:48:13Sure.
00:48:13Look, tell me.
00:48:14How do these catwomen intend to play their hand?
00:48:17Well, not for a few days.
00:48:20But don't worry, they can't do a thing without me.
00:48:22I understand.
00:48:24What about Walt?
00:48:27Boys will be boys, I guess.
00:48:29Can we go in?
00:48:30I'm exhausted.
00:48:32Sure.
00:48:35Sleep well, Helen.
00:48:44Well, you were right, Laird.
00:48:47My apologies.
00:48:48She's a fine girl.
00:48:50Of course she is.
00:48:51You know, there's a lot of things I don't understand yet.
00:48:54But you can be sure that there's a perfectly valid and scientific reason for all of them.
00:48:58That's right, Laird.
00:49:00These people may be far ahead of us in many things.
00:49:02Not as far as they think.
00:49:04What do you mean?
00:49:06Nothing.
00:49:07We'll talk about it in the morning.
00:49:08Let's get some sleep.
00:49:09And I don't think we need to stand guard.
00:49:11By the way, if Walt comes back, eat him out on general principles, will you?
00:49:14You're the expert at that.
00:49:16You got my full permission.
00:49:30The speed control retarder.
00:49:32The stabilizer.
00:49:33And the cutoff.
00:49:35You're too smart for me, baby.
00:49:37I like him stupid.
00:49:40Why don't you stay on the moon?
00:49:41And let me do your job.
00:49:43Well, if that goal is piled as high as you say it is, one more trip and you can have
00:49:48my job.
00:49:50It's there for the looking.
00:49:51What do you mean?
00:49:52Come on, let's go.
00:50:27You think that's power.
00:50:37I think that's cool.
00:50:37No, here's a mess.
00:50:40I think that's It's powerful.
00:50:42I think you could stay at theician in theJapaneseheit.
00:50:42You could do much more for your thanに, or I just didn't breathe with you.
00:50:44I know.
00:50:44Let's go.

00:52:56Yes, you'd better go after them. There may have been a change in plans.
00:53:00Okay. Their mood, I don't imagine they went very far.
00:53:55Oh, they're not really good enough to work.
00:53:56They're not so good enough to look at them.
00:53:56It's quite easy.
00:53:56Ada, it's really gold.
00:54:00Yes, Doug.
00:54:09Gold.
00:54:13Gold.
00:54:27Gold.
00:54:51What's the matter?
00:54:53Go away, quick, quick.
00:54:56But why?
00:54:57If it's anything I said or did.
00:54:59No.
00:55:00No, please save yourself.
00:55:02From what?
00:55:04From me.
00:55:06Because I love you, Doug.
00:55:08Yet I must kill you.
00:55:10I love you too, Lambda.
00:55:12And I'm not afraid.
00:55:15Listen to me.
00:55:16The survival of my people is at stake.
00:55:19In another few years, this underground world will be as dead as the bright side of the moon.
00:55:25I will come back, Lambda.
00:55:27I promise.
00:55:28The ship is only the first of many.
00:55:30Oh, but don't you see?
00:55:32We must be sure.
00:55:34Two million years of civilization.
00:55:36Does one gamble that on a promise?
00:55:41Lambda.
00:55:43I will come back.
00:55:57Kip, old man.
00:55:58I'm afraid I'm going to have to intercede for Walden Duck.
00:56:02You know, there must be something to this moon and romance stuff.
00:56:07All right.
00:56:09Now, Helen, you say something.
00:56:11It's obvious, isn't it?
00:56:13All that poppycock I told you out on the terrace was just to get you to go away.
00:56:16Now go away, will you?
00:56:20That's what I'd like to do.
00:56:22But I'm sure not getting any help.
00:56:32She's in tune with Helen.
00:56:34Granger's explaining the automatic pilot.
00:56:36I must talk to Alpha.
00:56:38Helen can tell her later.
00:56:43Is it important?
00:56:44Yes.
00:56:45I think we should take one of the men back with us.
00:56:48Why?
00:56:49Because if we show good faith, they might send more ships.
00:56:52Four of us will be enough.
00:56:54We will get their women under our power, and soon we will rule the whole world.
00:56:59But I don't want to rule the world.
00:57:01I want to live on it just like the Earth people do.
00:57:04Lambda, we are coming into a new situation.
00:57:07We must bring our culture to Earth.
00:57:10No.
00:57:11She's fallen in love with the radio operator.
00:57:14Is that true?
00:57:16And what if it is?
00:57:18There is no room in your life for love.
00:57:21We will choose your man eugenically.
00:57:23You and Beta will have girl children fit to carry on.
00:57:26The best of the Earth mongrels will be none too good.
00:57:30I won't do it.
00:57:31I love Doug, and you must take him.
00:57:33Threats, my dear?
00:57:35Yes.
00:57:36It just so happens you can't leave without us, and I won't tell you why.
00:57:41Lambda, you will tell me why.
00:57:44You think you can force me?
00:57:46My will is just as strong as yours.
00:57:56And now we have no time to waste.
00:58:04Kip.
00:58:05Well, I didn't expect to see you again.
00:58:06I think we'd better plan on getting out of here.
00:58:08No.
00:58:09When did you arrive at that momentous decision?
00:58:11Some of these moon people are planning to steal our ship.
00:58:13No.
00:58:15But one of them is on our side.
00:58:17I suppose you mean Helen.
00:58:18Well, Helen's liable to be a bit of a problem, too.
00:58:20She's been marked.
00:58:21She's under the influence of these people.
00:58:23Kid, you interview me strangely.
00:58:25What gossip column you've been reading?
00:58:27Lambda told me.
00:58:29I guess we sort of fell in love.
00:58:30Well, blessings on you.
00:58:32Did she say when the catwomen intended to try the little game?
00:58:35As soon as they get all the information they need about the ship.
00:58:37Some of them was supposed to work on Walt and someone else on Laird.
00:58:40What?
00:58:41On Laird?
00:58:44On Laird.
00:59:08Where have you been?
00:59:09Never mind that.
00:59:10We're just curious to know what you two lovebirds have been talking about.
00:59:13Don't tell him.
00:59:14Why not?
00:59:15I'm afraid you'd be very much disappointed if we were just talking shop.
00:59:18Anything wrong with that?
00:59:19No, not a thing.
00:59:20Except the catwomen are out to seal our ship
00:59:22and Helen's tied body and soul to them.
00:59:24That's a lie!
00:59:26I resent that, Kip.
00:59:27What's your evidence?
00:59:28Well, for one thing, Doug got the dope from little Lambda.
00:59:31No.
00:59:31For another, Helen told me herself.
00:59:32We were out on the terrace...
00:59:34No!
00:59:34...and she told me to hold her tight.
00:59:35Not to kiss her, but just to hold her hand.
00:59:39Let go of my hand!
00:59:41Not this time, baby.
00:59:47Oh, thank you, Kip.
00:59:51Now, let's set the record straight.
00:59:54Are you in love with Laird?
00:59:56No.
00:59:57Have you been bleeding him for information to pass on to Alpha?
01:00:00Yes.
01:00:02And who...
01:00:03do you really love?
01:00:07You.
01:00:10You take your help.
01:00:11Don't let!
01:00:12Don't let!
01:00:14Laird!
01:00:15Stop it!
01:00:16Stop!
01:00:16Laird!
01:00:25Laird!
01:00:26Stop it!
01:00:27Stop!
01:00:30You want to put her back under Alpha's spell?
01:00:33Helen!
01:00:34Where is she?
01:00:36Helen!
01:00:42Doug!
01:00:43They're on their way.
01:00:44I couldn't stop them.
01:00:44Who?
01:00:45Helen, Alpha and Beta.
01:00:47Just the three of them.
01:00:48They're going to steal the rocket ship.
01:00:49Why did they take two more of your people?
01:00:50They didn't want to for one thing.
01:00:52They couldn't for another.
01:00:52I hit out two of the space suits.
01:00:54We're still in business, provided we can stop them before they reach the ship.
01:00:57Who goes with me?
01:00:57Doug!
01:00:58Let's go.
01:01:01There comes a time when you can't find it in the book.
01:01:05I know that now.
01:01:12How much head start do you think they have?
01:01:14Too much!
01:01:15Unless something holds them up.
01:01:29Lander.
01:01:30Would you leave me?
01:01:31But you turned against us.
01:01:33How could I?
01:01:34It was a moment of weakness.
01:01:36Wait for me here and I'll get another suit and join you.
01:01:38It's a trap.
01:01:39Come on!
01:01:40I won't let you go.
01:01:42Helen, look at me.
01:01:43My will is as strong as theirs.
01:01:46They'll kill you as they've killed Walt.
01:01:49Stay here!
01:01:50You will come with us.
01:01:52Don't listen!
01:01:54Stand firm!
01:01:58No!
01:01:59No!
01:02:00No!
01:02:04No!
01:02:04No!
01:02:06No!
01:02:08No!
01:02:10No!
01:02:11I won't let you go.
01:02:12Doug!
01:02:13The cat women are dead!
01:02:15Helen's all right!
01:02:18No!
01:02:19No!
01:02:20No!
01:02:22No!
01:02:23No!
01:02:23No!
01:02:27No!
01:02:33And as for you, young man, what's done is done.
01:02:39Is your radio okay?
01:02:41It's okay, sir.
01:02:43Contact White Sands.
01:02:44Tell them we're coming in.
01:02:51Moon Rocket 4 calling White Sands.
01:02:53Moon Rocket 4 calling White Sands.
01:02:56Come in.
01:03:00Do you hear me, White Sands?
01:03:03What? Who?
01:03:04White Sands to Moon Rocket. Was that you?
01:03:06Don't blow a gasket, White Sands. We're coming in.
01:03:09Leaving Moon at 0117 your time.
01:03:12But what happened?
01:03:15That is a long story.
01:03:17Over to you and out.
01:03:18That's a long story.
01:03:19That's a long story.
01:03:24That's a long story.
01:03:26That's a long story.
01:03:30That's a long story.
01:03:31That's a long story.
01:03:32That's a long story.
01:03:32That's a long story.
01:03:33That's a long story.
01:03:34That's a long story.
01:03:34That's a long story.
01:03:34That's a long story.
01:03:35That's a long story.
01:03:35That's a long story.
01:03:35That's a long story.
01:03:36That's a long story.
