insurance
policy then got on the shuttle.
Mrs Salucci thinks he's suicidal.
We had the boys in psychiatry
do a profile on him.
- Yeah, that looks pretty bad.
- It's not his good side.
Now, blowing up a plane in space
leaves no traces for investigators.
This is a $1-million policy.
Wait a minute.
This is auto insurance!
That's why we're worried, gentlemen.
This clown's impotent,
suicidal and incredibly stupid.
And that spells trouble in my book.
Trouble.
Stinson, get me those Mayflower plans.
You, clear that table in there.
I'll get the cards and the bridge bits.
And somebody get me the sarge.
The heat in this cockpit
is getting unbearable.
You can fry an egg
on this control panel.
I don't know what'll to happen to us,
but I love you and I always will.
That might be the news
we've been waiting for.
- This is Mayflower 1.
- Striker, I got news for you.
You got a passenger aboard
named Joe Salucci.
- He's carrying a bomb.
- A bo...
No, not a "bo", a bomb.
Do you hear me, Striker?
What am I supposed to do now?
Get that bomb. I don't care how.
That's our top priority.
All the other problems can just wait.
As if we don't have
enough problems already.
You'd better fasten your seat belt.
Sir, you'll have to put
your cigarette out.
- Which passenger is Joe Salucci?
- 16-C. Why?
- He's carrying a bomb.
- A bo...!
No, not a "bo", a bomb.
Now, as discreetly as possible,
move the passengers into the lounge.
- We don't have a lounge.
- That's not important now.
- Get everyone away from that bomb.
- What should I say?
Anything. Just don't let Salucci
think we're on to him.
I'll do my best.
Attention, ladies and gentlemen, please.
Would everybody move to the lounge
who is not carrying a bomb.
Don't move!
Mr Salucci, they know
about you back home.
Stay where you are!
You don't want to kill
all these innocent people.
- I don't care about them.
- Joe, listen to me. It's hopeless.
No one's ever gotten away
with a stunt like this before.
Joe, the insurance is worthless now.
I don't believe you.
Joe, you got to trust me.
No one will hurt you.
No one has to know about your problem.
No one has to know you're impotent.
Don't say that word!
Scraps!
Nice going, Striker!
We're not out of the woods,
but you got rid of that bomb.
- Not exactly, McCroskey.
- What do you mean?
- The bomb's here beside me.
- There, beside you in the cockpit?
Striker...
What the hell are
you doing up there?
I got an idea that might just work.
It's a long shot.
I want to use the bomb
to blow the computer.
Striker, you've got to be crazy
to try a stunt like that.
Maybe, but it's the only
chance we've got.
When that bomb blows,
we'll lose our oxygen fast.
I'll have to get us out
as quick as I can.
- I'm taking her to 0.5 worp.
- 0.5 worp?
0.5 worp.
I test-piloted this shuttle.
I know exactly what it can do.
Striker, listen to me now and listen good.
That thing is bound to come apart
at that speed, and that's no good.
It's got to be in
one piece when you land.
You know that that worp drive
has never been tested!
You're putting yourself and everybody
else on that ship in jeopardy!
- Over here!
- Contestant 38.
I'll take air shuttle
disasters for 40.
The answer is... the Mayflower.
Ted, what are you going to do?
Elaine, I'm going back
there with the bomb.
You're my hero.
The bomb.
Be careful.
Listen good. If you got any ideas,
now is the time. I want to hear them.
How about Hollywood Squares but
with kids? Gary Coleman could host.
- Simon just ejected.
- Sit down, Elaine.
If this works, we might make it.
- Simon was a fool to eject now.
- You mean...?
That's right. Premature ejection.
Striker, listen and listen good.
You'll be on lunar
radio range any second.
The next transmission
that you receive
will be from Buck Murdock
at Alpha Beta Base.
- Not BUCK Murdock?
- No. Buck MURdock.
Who's Buck Murdock, Ted?
A guy I flew with during the war.
He
