Crack in the World - Discussion of Drill Tower and Missile Concerns
Dr. Maggie Sorenson:
But Sir Charles, the project entrance is half a mile further on!
Sir Charles Eggerston:
I know Mrs. Sorenson. I wanted to stop here to take a better look at "that". That's your drill tower, isn't it?
Dr. Maggie Sorenson:
Yes it is.
Sir Charles Eggerston:
What's that missile doing up there? I thought that we came here to discuss with your husband the "possibility" of using an atomic warhead.
Dr. Maggie Sorenson:
Half" a missile, Sir Charles. If you look closely, you'll see it's not armed.
