charged with responsibility... for preserving water. Our existence as an operating army... depends on these following water-saving procedures. Remember, water is life. Why is the shield not yet up ? Sir, we found and removed another sabotage device. I think it'll go up now, sir. [ Military Announcer ] ...armed forces prospects for rehabilitation are good. We're finding these sabotage devices too easily. [ Military Announcer ] House shield activating. Duke Leto is now here. Spice mining inspection to start immediately. So you are Dr. Kynes, the Judge of the change. - And the lmperial Ecologist, sire. - Our intelligence informs us... that there's still a strong Harkonnen presence. The process of removal continues. This is my son, Paul. - Are you a Fremen ? - I've been on Arrakis... in the service of the Emperor long enough for my eyes to change. [ Inner Voice ] ln the service of the Emperor. We are in your hands, Doctor. Your gift of the stillsuits is much appreciated. Will you give us an explanation of their workings ? Well, this is a stillsuit of Fremen manufacture, the most efficient type on Arrakis. - Basically-- - [ Growling ] It's all right, Gurney. Yes, sire. Basically, it's a high efficiency filter and heat exchange system. Perspiration passes through the first layer, and is gathered in the second, where salt is separated. Breathing and walking provide the pumping action. The reclaimed water circulates to catch pockets... from which you can drink through this tube... at your neck. Urine and feces are processed in the thigh pads. Should you be in the open desert, remember to breathe in through your mouth... and out through this nose tube. With a Fremen suit in good working condition, Iife can be sustained for weeks, even in the deep desert, sire. My thanks. With your permission. - You've worn a stillsuit before. - No. Your suit is fitted desert fashion. - Who told you how to do that ? - No one. It seemed the proper way. That it is.

Caution: You've now cleared protective shield wall... and entered open desert. Will we see a worm ? Where there's spice and spice mining, there are always worms. - Always. - Always. Why do they come ? To protect their territory. Vibrations attract them. [ Inner Voice ] He must be a Fremen, or in with them. He's studying us. He's hiding something about the spice. Is there a relationship between the worms and the spice ? As I said, they defend the spice sand. As to their relationship with the spice, who knows ? [ Inner Voice ] My message. It's here. There are more enemy bodies coming in for your inspection, Doctor Yueh. - Are you all right ? - Yes, I'm fine. Thank you, Thufir. - Dust cloud ahead, sire. - That's it. Spice mining. No other cloud quite like it. Wormsign. Is it wormsign ? [ Doctor Kynes ] Yes. Worm. Big one. You've got sharp eyes. May I ? Calling Harvester Pad Nine. Wormsign. [ Man On Radio ] Who calls Pad Nine ? Don't mention the duke. This is an uncoded channel. Unlisted flight northeast of you. Wormsign on intercept course. Estimated contact: 15 minutes. [ Man On Radio ] Have sighting confirmed. Stand by for fix. Contact in 16 minutes minus. Very precise estimate. Who's on that unlisted flight ? - What happens now ? - The carryall will come and lift off the spice harvester.
