" Thank you." "Are we in for some bad weather?" "Well, it's October." "'tis the season." "Well, if you need any help in the cockpit," "I do have experience." "Yeah, so one lesson." "Now you're the expert?" "Experts don't appreciate it as much as amateurs." "It loses its thrill." "Big storm brewing between us and Caracas." "Massive even." "Have they given this one a name yet?" "(Sighs)" "We should probably discuss this later." "Depends on the weather." "Uh, I-I'm forgetting my meteorology, but what is the technical term for a destructive squall with wind speeds exceeding 73 miles per hour?" "It's not a tropical storm but a... (Chuckles) Oh... (Clicks tongue) Hurricane!" "(Chuckles) That's what it is." "Well, they must have named it something." "Uh, it's Ginny." "Hurricane Ginny!" "(Chuckles) Oh!" "What are the odds?" "(Laughs) What?"

"You're ignoring the cosmic, uh, signals here." "It's... it's like the universe is giving you a second chance to avoid Ginny, and you're still not taking it." "Where do I get her number?"

"Uh, "treatment is absolute rest."" ""Make comfortable." "If breathing is difficult, prop up pillows."" "That's it?" "That's all they expect us to do?" "Told you." "Useless." "Thank you." "Ohh." "You're gonna be all right, Henry." "The captain is working on how to get you more help." "Why aren't they answering?" "We should be in range by now."

(Pants and grunts)" "(Sighs)" "Descend to 1,000 feet." "Descending to 1,000 feet." "Colette, tell them we're landing now." "If they don't want me to hit the tower, they can give me lights."

"(Mouths word)" "(Sighs)" "(Engine starts)" "(Jeep creaks)" "(Revs engine)" "I used to like coming to Haiti." "Loved lake Sumatra." "See the flamingos and the man-eating crocodiles, but I tell you, you put one lunatic in charge, and the whole country turns into crazyland." "Instead of leaving, the American military should have crushed Papa Doc and his merry men and taken over." "Mm." "The whole country would be better off." "We'd be feeding flamingos right now." "(Chuckles) Uh, I mean, that probably sounds a little imperialistic to the French, right?" "(Chuckles) Am I right?" "Do you always talk this much?" "Yeah, when I'm nervous." "A bit. (Chuckles)" "(Sighs) You always talk this little?" "What's that?" "What?" "It looks familiar." "Well, uh, a hurricane just hit." "I'm sure there's more than one downed tree." "No, we are going circles." "Not according to the North star, which is directly behind us." "I used to be a navigator, you know?" "(Jeep creaking)" "Flamingos bite." "They do." "I-I mean, they... they're..." "They're very pretty a-and... and pink and very quiet, but they bite." "They break the flesh." "You know, as a child, when there was danger," "I was taught not to speak, not to make a sound." "Really?" "Why?" "Ted." "Just..." "Whoa." "(Shifts gears)" "Are they dead?" "There's nothing we can do for them." "Just keep driving." "Wait!" "Americains?" "(Speaks French)" "(Speaks French)" "What did she say, and why is she getting in?" "(Sighs) She will show us the way."

"(Both chuckle)" "But with nice legs." "(Chuckles) I bet you had your choice." "Oh, but there's always that one, right?" "That one you let in all the way ends up breaking your heart." "Well, she didn't mean to." "Yeah, she fought hard, but the cancer won, and she left." "Blanca... my redhead." "The redhead who broke your heart was your wife?" "Married 40 years." "Going to Venezuela to celebrate." "That's where she was born." "(Chuckles)" "We always meant to go together one day, but, you know, things..." "Things." "Blanca?" "(Chuckles) Yeah." "It's a funny name for a redhead, isn't it?" "(Laughs)" "Oh, it's beautiful." "(Coughs) Oh." "It was not just on the outside." "You know, she, uh, cared about people." "She was always volunteering for things." "Too much, I thought." "I-I wanted her with me, you know?" "Selfish." "Mm-hmm." "Very selfish." "I'm gonna make up for that when I get back... (Whispering) Try to be more like her, make some kind of..." "impact." "Mm." "I've been trying to make an impact myself." "Keep trying." "(Both chuckle)" "She says the killings have been going on for weeks now." "The secret police suspect everyone to be a rebel." "The rebels suspect everyone of working for the dictator Papa Doc." "And here we are, two foreigners in a government vehicle." "Swell." "Perhaps they'll be too busy shooting at each other to bother with us." "(Ted) What about our planeload of passengers?" "(Speaks French)" "(Speaks French)" "(Ted) Doctor?" "(Thunder rumbles)" "Does it look like I can go anywhere?" "(Metal clinks)" "It's just a few miles." "We'll bring you right back." "And how many die here before I get back?" "We got money." "Back at the plane." "Enough to save a lot of lives." "What makes your passenger more important than these people?" "(Thunder rumbles)" "(Speaks French)" "(Speaks French)" "(Speaks French)" "(Speaks French)" "(Door creaks)" "(Speaks French)" "Nitroglycerin." "Put it under his tongue." "It can sometimes stop the attack." "Now go before anyone sees you here." "(Whispers) Merci." "(Footsteps retreat, thunder rumbles)" "No, no, no, no." "Ride's over." "Tell her to get out." "No." "I can't." "Why?" "I already told her she could come with us." "No." "No way." "Not unless she's got a medical degree." "Her entire family was butchered." "(Gunshots)" "Ted!" "(Ted) Those gunshots are coming from the North." " (Colette) We have to go North." " Lay down." "Get back." "Don't get up, no matter what." "You, too." "We might be... we might be driving right through the middle of it." "(Gunfire)" "Stay down!" "(Whispering indistinctly)" "You're counting." "Why are you counting?" "The runway..." "It's too short?" "That stays out here." "How could it be too short?" "Pan Am used to land here all the time." "(Sighs)" "Hurricane left some scars." "How much is gone?" "Too much for a loaded 707." "So we can't take off?" "Maybe the cavalry's on their way." "Oh, if they're the cavalry, we're the Indians." "(Chuckles)" "How short is it?" "About 500 feet shy of liftoff." "So we're grounded." "You think "grounded's" a viable option?" "According to that manual, it's the only option." "These manuals are written by engineers, not pilots." "These planes will do a lot more than they say they can." "They build in a pad for a reason." "Well, we can't afford that reason." "(Engine starts)" "What's the outside temperature?" "78 degrees." "Gotta love the tropics." "But the wind speed is 12 knots at our tail, which negates the temperature advantage." "I m..." "I mentioned I was a pilot, right?" "(Chuckles) Current fuel level and cargo, we weigh in at 237,000 pounds." "(Exhales deeply)" "Gonna have to lose some weight." "Starting in 6A..." "185, 140, 133." "Why are you asking our weights?" "The plane is too heavy to take off." "I just saw the pilot measuring the runway." "Now they're concerned about weight?" "How long have you been flying 707s?" "How long has your captain?" "He looks like he just got out of the service." "He does look very young." "(Laura) Youngest captain at Pan Am." "Well, he is." "So ask yourselves, why would Pan Am, the best airline in the world, promote someone so young?" "Well, looking around, I can only assume it's because he looks good in his uniform." "(Women gasp)" "(Murmuring)" "May we help you?" "Avez-vous de la nourriture?" "N'avons pas mange depuis deux jours." "Bien sur." "They're just hungry." "They want some food." "(Speaks French)" "(Sighs)" "How did Hemingway describe fear, Mr. Ortiz?" "Was it "Grace under pressure"?" "Oh, no." "I'm sorry." "That's how he described courage." "So while she takes care of the men with the guns, why don't you sit down... and I'll make you a nice, hot cup of tea." " Where are they?" " I don't know." "(Bowl clinks)" "Henry?" "You awake?" "Oh." "Still here." "What, uh..." "What part of Venezuela is Blanca from?" "Oh..." "Chuao." "Very small." "By the water." "She said e-everybody there just wanted to feed you." "I've been to Venezuela several times, but never there." "I'd love to see it with you, Henry." "You may have to carry me." "Oh, come on." "We'll celebrate your anniversary together." "We'll dance the joropo." "(Sighs) Well, you're..." "You're very lucky to..." "Have gone to so many places." "(Sighs) 35 countries and counting." "(Grunts)" "Best part of my job." "(Sighs)" "Which was your favorite?" "(Whispers) Croatia." "Ahh." "Yugoslavia." "(Chuckles)" "It was just supposed to be a short layover." "It was part of my job." "I didn't even want to go there, but..." "From the moment I arrived... (Whispers) I felt like I was home." "Was it..." "Was it beautiful?" "(Chuckles)" "It was gorgeous." "Strong, safe..." "With this romantic side that surprised me... (Sighs) Devastated me." "(Whispers) Who was he?" "(Sighs)" "He was my redhead." "Henry?" "Henry?" "Henry?" "(Jeep approaches)" "Okay, ladies." "Let's go." "(Laura) Where's the doctor?" "You're looking at 'em." " He's not coming?" " He sent medicine." "(Sighs)" "Dean." "No." "Absolutely not." "Dean, we can't." "We can't leave her here." "She barely escaped with her life." "And I'm sympathetic to that, Colette, I am, but taking her is not an option." "Are you hearing me?" "She could be killed." "Yeah, along with a thousand other villagers." "So let's go out..." "we'll round them up, we'll lock the doors, and wait for someone to take us hostage." "I'm not asking for thousands of villagers." "I'm asking for one girl." "And I'm asking you to put yourself in my shoes." "I just landed a plane full of passengers who are my responsibility on a runway that is too short in a country that's about to explode." "And between you and me?" "The only way that we are taking off is if we lose a few thousand pounds and there's a passenger on this plane that's got a guardian angel that feels like doing extra credit." "She doesn't weigh much." "Oh, damn it, Colette." "I don't have the time, the space, or the luxury to take on strays right now." ""Strays"?" "That's how you see orphans?" "Oh, don't do that." "Don't make this about you." "How is she..." "what is she?" "She 17?" "I didn't realize there was an expiration date." "Even if we take her, immigration will immediately kick her right back." "We have to try." "Pan Am has..." "has strict guidelines against bringing stowaways on board." "I'm the captain of this aircraft." "I believe in you," "I believe this plane will take off, and I believe that once we're safely in the air, you will regret leaving that girl behind." "(Sniffs)" "I landed here for nothing, put all these people's lives in danger for a dead man." "You landed here to save a life." "There is still the possibility of that." "She's standing right there." "(woman) The man is dead." "Why are we still here?" "We'll be leaving very soon." "What are we doing now?" "Refugees?" "She doesn't belong on this plane." "She's seen much worse." "Is she coming with us?" "She lost all her family." "Nothing's left for her here." "(Speaks French)" "Here." "You may need this." "It gets cold up there." "(Speaks French)" "What is with this guy?" "You don't suppose he could be delivering good news, do you?" "The good humor man's coming?" " Or the rebels." " Any one of 'em would love a planeload of American hostages to parade around like poodles." "So that hurricane should have cleared Miami by now." "Yeah?" "It's closer." "We can lighten the load by burning more fuel." "We're diverting." "How overweight are we?" "You know how ostriches are birds but they can't fly?" "Well, this one's going to." "I want you to start the before start checklist, then start the engines." "(Sighs) Copy that." "(Chuckles)" "Why is she being given a seat?" "Well, she's the only Haitian passenger that was brave enough to show up." "First you land us in this hellhole just to watch a man die, and now you want to smuggle refugees?" "We choose who flies on this aircraft." "What if you were sick?" "Wouldn't you want us to land for you?" "I don't deal with conjecture." "I deal in facts." "And the fact is she is a stowaway." "She is a guest of Pan Am." "And you are an ignorant young girl." "Go back to your seat and shut up." "Who is the paying passenger here?" "If you promise to go mute for the rest of this trip," "I will see about getting you a refund." "(Dean, amplified voice) Okay, everybody calm down." "(Engines whirring)" "You hear that?" "So those are our engines." "We're burning off some fuel so we can lighten our load, and then we'll be leaving." "Oh!" "(Applause)" "But I need everybody's help." "Do you want us to get out and push?" "(Laughter)" "I may take you up on that, but right now" "I'm gonna need all your personal items removed from the plane." "That includes your luggage." "Every pound counts." "(Sighs)" "(Indistinct conversations)" "We burn 50 pounds in minute with all 4 engines running." "Yeah, we need a lot more minutes and we don't have 'em." "You want me to change the laws of physics?" "(Thud)" "Oh!" "Hey!" "Stop!" "Don't take another step." "I paid to have my luggage arrive with me in Venezuela, and that's where it's going." "Let me help you with that." "You idiot." "Ah... ah... hey." "You touch that suitcase, you're gonna be keeping it company on the tarmac when we take off." "You and Papa Doc can have a party without us." "When I report this, you'll be lucky to fly crop dusters." "Nothing wrong with crop dusters." "That's how I learned to fly." "Go." "Thank you for flying Pan Am." "(Miguel) If this plane is too heavy for luggage, it is too heavy for that Haitian." "(Woman) He's right." "(Colette) This isn't luggage." "She's a person who needs our help." "(Sighs)" "This redhead needs a favor." "(Woman) We need to leave her here." "(Colette) If she stays here, she'll be killed." "We might die if she doesn't." "If the girl stays, somebody goes." "Are you volunteering?" "No." "Henry is." "He wanted to help people." "Tonight he gets to do that." "We leave the body, and the girl stays." "(engines whirring)" "You made that impact, Henry." "Safe travels." "(Ted) That can't be good." "Ready or not, we're leaving right now." "I'll start preflight." "(Dean) Kate!" "Let's go!" "Prepare for takeoff!" "Come on." "Let's go." "(Clicks switches)" "The wind has increased on our tail and the temperature has dropped." "We can't take off." "Cut the pep talk, Chuck." "Where's our fuel?" "We've lost 6,000 pounds." "Add that to our garage sale, and we're down to about 200,000 pounds." "Still not enough to fit into our prom dress." "We need to burn more fuel, a lot more." "Well, there's no time." "Setting brakes." "(Click)" "Setting takeoff thrust." "Takeoff thrust set." "Captain, it's my duty to tell you that based on F.A.A. rules and regulations, it is too dangerous to take off." "Yeah, noted." "We've taken off from aircraft carriers shorter than this." "In a fighter jet." "A 707 isn't designed to take off like this." "'Cause fighter jets don't veve four engines." "If you don't blow an engine first." "You need me to change your diaper, Chuck?" "I mean, you're embarrassing the Navy here." "Ted, I'm just trying to tell you..." "It's not Ted, it's first officer Vanderway, and sitting next to me is captain Lowrey." "He makes the decisions on this aircraft without any interference from you." "Am I understood?" "Yes, sir." "Seats in the upright position." "Make sure your belts are nice and tight." "(Dean) Flaps at 20." "Flaps 20." "Engine 2, oil pressure 80." "Engine 3, 82." " We can't sustain this thrust forever." " Just another minute." "Smell that?" "That's the brakes burning up." "I can fly without brakes." "Just a little while longer." "Another 30 seconds, they're gonna be on our tail." "Thank you for Henry." "I hope immigration doesn't send her back." "(Tones chime)" "(Dean) Cabin crew, prepare for immediate takeoff." "(Seat belt clicks)" "I may have a friend who can help." "It's now or never." "Do it." "Releasing brakes." "(Click)" "(Whoosh)" "(Roaring)" "Pull up." "Pull up!" "I see it." "Oh..." "Damaged runway cleared." " Take gear up." " Oh, way ahead of you." "Flaps up." "Flaps... (Sighs) (Click)" "Up." "(Exhales deeply)" "(Sighs deeply)" "Nice job, captain." "(Sighs) You may have to land again." "I think I'm having a heart attack." "(Chuck and Dean chuckle)" "Your controls." "(Click)" "Ladies and gentlemen, that was rougher than expected..." "My apologies..." "But we are climbing normally." "We should be reaching cruising altitude shortly." " (Woman) Yay!" " (Man) Whoo!" "Don't worry." "Kate is going to help you." "(Man) Miss Benoit?" "Please give us a few more minutes." "Please." "I need you to do this, Richard." "I can always count on you for the unorthodox." "Can you do it or not?" "We do have some experience with green cards." "(Sighs) Please, I understand, but we might be able to fix this." "I'm in no mood for one of your little games." "Just do it." "Give me a couple of hours." "No." "Not hours." "Minutes." "I guess I will have to go over a few heads." "And a faster family." "A nice one." "She can't be here alone." "I will interrogate them myself." "Thank you, Richard." "I owed you one..." "Or several." "Yes, good bye."
