00:00So what are we going to do now?
00:02That guy in the corner.
00:05Jaeger's his name.
00:06He's some kind of war hero.
00:08Shot down five Germans in one day.
00:10They say he's a natural-born stick and rudder man.
00:12Express liaison man for the Air Force, I think.
00:16You know of any problems with him?
00:18Only one.
00:20What's that?
00:20Holding him back.
00:27Major.
00:28Say there, Jaeger.
00:30Sir.
00:31We were just talking to Slick here about the sound barrier.
00:35Is that right?
00:36And we feel that the X-1 is ready to have a go at it.
00:39We think the X-1's got the answer to go beyond Mach 1.
00:43If there is any beyond.
00:47So what do you think, Jaeger?
00:50Well, I'll tell you what.
00:51Half these engineers never been off the ground, you know.
00:54I mean, they're liable to tell you that the sound barrier's a brick wall in the sky.
00:58It'll rip your ears off if you try to go through it.
01:01If you ask me, I don't believe the damn thing even exists.
01:05Latrice, a drink from Mr. Jaeger here.
01:07No, thanks.
01:07I got one.
01:09So, do you think you want to have a go at it?
01:12I might.
01:14But, uh, since, as you say, this sound barrier doesn't really exist, how much...
01:21How much you got?
01:23I'm just joking.
01:24The Air Force is paying me already.
01:25Ain't that right, sir?
01:27Well, sure, Jaeger, but...
01:29So, when do we go?
01:31Well, how about tomorrow morning?
01:34I'll be there.
01:36See you there.
01:40How much are you paying him?
01:43I think it's $283 a week, a month.
01:49That's not bad.
01:51Not bad.
01:54Oh, shit.
01:56First fella to break the sound barrier is gonna get a free stake with all the trimming.
02:04I'll have my medium rare, please.
02:15Honey, you ever been caught out in the desert alone before?
02:22I never have.
02:26I don't think I ever will.
02:31Never did meet the man who could catch me out there.
02:34I'm half jackrabbit.
02:39Forget it, flyboy.
02:42You'd never catch me.
02:45I believe I will.
02:48I can't be dumb.
03:09Could I ask you something?
03:13Forget it, sweetie.
03:16You see this one.
03:16She's his life.
03:17He's his wife.
03:17I don't know.
