The Philadelphia Experiment

This better be good, Falkner.

Reece, could you park Ms. Moore's car, please?

Yes, sir.

Well, now, Kathryn, that depends on your expectations of good.

I mean, I've had ice cream that's good.

I've had pizza that's good. Actually, you know what?

There's this brick-oven pizza joint down the street.

It's better than sex.

Cut to the chase.

Are you telling me the device is functional?

I'm telling you that we...

Let's face it, I...

have redesigned the battlefield of the 21st century.

All systems are online.

They're bringing in the test vehicle now.

My car?

Relax, Kathryn. It's a company car.

Okay.

Get clear. Hurry up.

All right, people, safety positions.

- Doctor. - Thank you.

Safety perimeter all around the site.

Safety perimeter all around.

Stand by.

Fire it up.

Powering to 40%.

16 teslas and climbing.

Engage the degaussing coils.

I assume this is all safe.

More or less.

24 teslas.

It's not taking effect.

Push it up. There's no turning back now.

Now.

32 teslas and climbing.

I hope you know what you're doing.

Abracadabra.

Impressed?

Or do I need to pull a rabbit out of a hat?

40 teslas and holding.

How long can you sustain the effect?

We're still working on that.

Let's bring her back.

- Power down the generator. - Okay.

Inputting.

Vision to normal.

Nice work, Doctor.

I'm sorry. "Nice work"?

You act as though we invented a stronger glue.

We just cracked invisibility.

25 teslas. The field's destabilizing.

Who was that?

What the hell?

A magnetic flux spike.

This is Vantage 3-5-4

requesting clearance for takeoff.

I repeat, this is Vantage 3-5-4

requesting clearance for takeoff.

Vantage 3-5-4, cleared for takeoff.

The car's gone.

Teslas are dropping.

We'll get it stabilized.

Distortion lowered.

All synchronized.

It's totally fine.

Decaf's not ready yet?

Car payment is no longer late.

Yes.

But, Lena, this is the last, last time

I'm hacking in to change your credit score.

Got it.

I also do not understand how you drink this swill.

You own a coffee shop, for God's sake.

I gave up caffeine when I was pregnant with my first.

You should try it.

Decaf or pregnancy?

Both.

I'd really like to see you wrangle a toddler.

I'm sure you would.

How long are you going to keep Carl hanging?

- Hi, Lena. - Ah, speak of the devil.

- Hey, Molly. - Hi, Carl.

You going to marry me today?

Maybe later.

How about now?

Reed, come in. Do you copy?

Yeah, this is Reed. Go ahead.

Need you out at Broadmore's Airfield.

Some kind of explosion.

He keeps raving about a ship.

A ship?

Hell if I know.

Broadmore says a ship blew up his runway.

All right, I'll be there.

- 10-4. - Sorry. Duty calls.

Go get 'em.

Marry me tonight?

I'll think about it.

Thanks, Lena.

How the hell did you accomplish that?

I'm a genius.

The board of directors

is going to want a better answer than that.

The truth is they did some great stuff back in '43,

groundbreaking, actually.

It's not like you to share credit.

I'm not. There's still a patent in this for me.

It's about damn time.

Relax, Broadmore.

Why don't you tell me what happened here?

See for yourself.

- Dr. Falkner. - Not now, Ramey.

We know where the voice signature came from.

Great. Fix it.

It came from the USS Eldridge.

Eldridge?

That's a ship.

That's what I've been saying.

Don't sound so crazy now, do I?

Well, how the hell did it get here?

Well, how the hell should I know?

I heard this crash,

and the damn thing was there.

"USS Eldridge."

It's the Eldridge.

Dispatch, we're going to need some serious backup.

Call the...

call the National Guard. Call the Navy too.

Are you serious, Carl?

There is a World War II destroyer on the runway.

What?

Salinger.

Salinger.

Salinger, if you're getting this, the...

...the phase generator's malfunctioned.

What the...

Deck three to bridge. Anyone there?

Hello! Can you hear me?

O'Hara!

Come on, fellas!

The USS Eldridge was decommissioned

after the experiment, right?

Sold to Greece in 1951, right?

It was renamed the Leon, right?

Of course.

Then why is it sitting in the middle of Pennsylvania?

How much of the file did you withhold?

We gave you all you needed.

Apparently not.

What happened to the Eldridge?

The Eldridge and its crew

were lost during the original experiment in 1943.

The ship never decloaked.

If this is indeed the Eldridge, we are onto something

much bigger than invisibility here.

I need the complete file.

It's the Eldridge. I'm telling you,

I have never seen anything like this in all my life.

Carl, no, that doesn't make any sense.

The Eldridge?

I'm staring at it right now.

It's right here in the middle of Springview. I...

- Hello! - Wait. Just wait a second.

Is anyone there?

Hello! Can you hear me?

I think there's a survivor.

I'm going to have to call you back.

What? Carl, wait.

Whoa!

Carl!

My God.

We're rechecking numbers now.

They are powered down, right?

Yeah, they should be.

My indicator shows red.

Doesn't sound like it.

You believe that?

Where's Carl?

Disappeared into the ship.

- What? - He's...

- What do you mean? What... - He's in the damn ship.

This is Reed. Do you copy?

How did he get into the ship?

This is Reed! Can anybody hear me?!

He's got his radio. He's got his radio.

Carl? Can you hear me?

All right, text me when you get in.

Honey, it's like I told you last week.

Last week.

Nice shoes.

Hang on. I have a call on the other line.

My phone battery's dying.

No, I've got the new model.

Just send me a text with the GPS coordinates.

What's your problem? Huh?

Watch where you're walking.

Operator.

Give me Klingerman-52700.

Please deposit 25 cents.

Miss, I'm hoping you can help me, please. I...
