The Last Ship

U. S. military escort CDC team...

...requesting permission to enter Egyptian airspace.

Permission granted.

Dr. Scott, off to the right, take a look.

He's on approach.

Visibility's good. Time to target, three minutes.

- Roger that. Two-two-zero. - Roger that. I see you.

Status, green.

Dr. Scott, prepare for landing.

Putting down close to the LP.

Twenty feet, 10 feet...

...and we're down.

Doctor, you've got five minutes.

This way. There are 6000 quarantined in this camp.

We have 387 dead.

My staff is down to six. I thought you were bringing more doctors.

These are the latest to come down with the virus.

Once the spots come, they die in two days.

I'm sorry.

Ripped By mstoll

Snowmobiles go to starboard Hangar F.

Chief Spurling, Chief Lewis, we are getting underway at 1300. Let's pick up the pace.

Yeah, I know all about the Naval Mountain Warfare Unit...

...but never heard of a dog setting foot on a destroyer.

- This isn't just a dog. This is Admiral Halsey. - And he's a mean operator.

Yeah? Well, so is the captain.

You can just put that down over there.

Be careful. That's delicate equipment.

I take it you're my new houseguest.

I'm Commander Chandler, ship's captain.

Rachel Scott. Sorry we had to take over your helicopter bay...

...but it was the only space large enough to accommodate our lab.

I got 217 men and women on this ship. Anything I should be concerned about?

Oh, this? Uh...

This is just so we don't contaminate the work. Not the other way around.

What exactly are you gonna be studying up there?

- Birds. - Birds?

We are virologists...

...tracking obscure microbes in hard-to-get-to places.

Pretty boring stuff, actually.

We really do appreciate your assistance, Captain Chandler.

We're here to serve.

Welcome aboard, doctor.

Hit it.

Roger that. Red deck.

Bird's chocked and chained. Heading to the barn.

Damn, it's cold. I can't feel my face. Granderson, tell me, do I still have a face?

Yes, sir. Though it looks like you could use some lip balm, sir.

I should have taken that desk job in Miami.

It is cold.

Captain's on the bridge.

XO Slattery, let's see if we can get your frozen ass back to Norfolk.

- TAO, Bridge. - Bridge, TAO.

Helo just dropped the target for our final missile test.

Target's 5 feet long, 2 feet wide, and in the icy water has no heat signature.

Let's find it and kill it.

Scanning for target. Scanning zone.

- Kill track 5205. - : Target acquired.

- Target acquired. Break. - Kill track 0845, aye.

MSS, kill track 0845.

Missile ready to fire.

- Missile clear. Two-two-zero-30. Thirty thousand.

Thirty-five.

- Boom. - Target confirmed, kill.

Good afternoon, Nathan James. This is the captain.

After four very challenging months at the top of the world...

...we have just passed our final test...

...and I'm proud to say you did it with flying colors.

I'm asking the Pentagon if we can break radio silence today to make calls and e-mail.

Bravo Zulu to each and every one of you.

Enjoy your success, because we're going home.

Gonna drop to 50 below. Get them off the ice.

Aye, sir.

Dr. Scott, come in.

Dr. Scott, are you there?

Please respond.

Dr. Scott, come in.

You have got to be kidding me.

We're so close. We need to make sure the isolate isn't contaminated.

- We need more samples. - It's all right. We can come back tomorrow.

Ma'am, we've been trying to reach you.

CO wants you back on the ship.

You can tell the captain that I'll return when I'm ready.

It wasn't an invitation, ma'am.

Right now.

Captain's orders.

Landing checklist complete. Gear down and locked.

Twenty feet, 10 feet, wheels down.

- We can make it back for the Series. - You don't think the Cubs are in it?

It's the weakest division in baseball.

- We were six games up when we left. - That was June.

And they're the Cubs.

Captain Chandler, you had no right to pull me from my work.

- I'm gonna go check on the, uh-- - Yeah.

Those men are here to support me. You don't send them to bring me in.

- Those men are sailors in the U.S. Navy. - I say when I am done and ready.

- I have finally found what I am looking for-- - Doctor.

First of all, thanks for checking in.

Think this is the first time you've said more than three words to me since we left Norfolk.

I am sorry that I haven't had you over for tea.

You know, your attitude was mildly charming back in June, in Virginia...

...but up here at 50 below, when none of us have talked to our families in four months?

Not so charming.

- Yeah, well, charm wasn't exactly my pri-- - Still talking.

Now, I think I've been more than a gracious host.

Taxied you and your assistant around here so you can chase after your ducks.

- Arctic terns. - Need to wrap it up.

Our mission's done, and we'll be heading back.

I'll take a rain check on the tea.

- Benzo, eat some fruit. - Oh.

Mr. Chung, it's our last night at the North Pole.

You got big plans, but don't you ever get your head out of that book?

- Nope. - Okay.

- Lieutenant. - Lieutenant.

Mm-mm.

Danny, whoa.

- Don't do that. - Do what?

- You know what that smile does to me. - All's fair in love and war.

Yeah.

- Kara. - We'll be home soon enough.

Hello, are you reading me?

Come in.

No, I cannot wait.

This is Dr. Rachel Scott.

I need to speak to the national security advisor right away.

You don't understand.

My mission is being compromised. I need more time to collect samples.

We have a noisy channel. I repeat, mission objectives achieved.

We are ready to come home. Over.

That's a negative, commander.

- The mission has been extended. Over. - Extended? Why?

Maintain radio silence and current position until you receive further instructions.

Transmission terminated.

What the hell is that woman doing?

Quincy?

I think we've got it.

Sorry, man. Did I wake you?

Doc told me to keep my distance.

The admiral's scaring off the birds.

- Sure it was the dog and not your breath? - Heh. Whatever.

Man, we should've been out of here days ago.

- What the...? - Aircraft to position...

...seven-six-decimal-three-five-north - zero-five-nine-decimal-five-eight-east.

I have three-- Make that five...

...unknown aircraft approaching, range 24 nautical miles, 80 knots.

Those are not ours, man.

No. They're Russian.

- Come on! - We have to save the samples.

- Help me! - Leave the box. Let's go.

Rachel, leave the box.

Let's go right now!

Come on! Let's go! Come on!

Quincy!

Drop them. Drop them.

- Set General Quarters. - General Quarters. Man your battle stations.

Transit up and forward starboard side, down portside.

Unknown aircraft approaching.

TAO, Air. New air contact 80234 at 015 at 36,000 yards. Inbound.

TAO surface manned and ready.

Deploy SCAT. CIWS to AAW Auto. Hold fire on.

Take him alive.

Guns. Kill track 5024.

Guns, aye.

You Okay?

- Clear! - Come on.

- Where's Dr. Scott? - She's banged up.

Doc's looking at her in Hangar 2.

What did he say?

The cure.

He wants the cure.

All are accounted for. Are we at war?

Get me Fleet Forces. Get me NMCC. If they don't answer, get me SECDEF.

- Supposed to be radio silent. - Not anymore.

I told you I'm fine. Just hurry up. Where's Quincy? I need my samples.

You don't get your samples until you tell me what's going on here.

You have no authority over me.

Everybody out.

You need to hand that case to me.

We may have just gone to war with Russia, and they were after you.

No more secrets.

Tell me about the cure.

I can't say anything.

I swear to God, I will throw this overboard! I want answers!

You want answers?

Seven months ago, outside Cairo, there was an outbreak.

A virus of unknown origin.

Its genetic structure was like nothing any of us had ever seen.

It swept throughout the village, killing everyone that it infected.

Egyptian officials claim the outbreak was contained, but it wasn't.

Instead, it continued to mutate and spread.

The CDC and the WHO wanted to sample the virus...

...and the victims to create a vaccine.
