1
00:01:15,025 --> 00:01:17,960
Liftoff. We have a liftoff.
2
00:01:43,220 --> 00:01:45,814
That's one small step for man...
3
00:01:47,358 --> 00:01:50,521
...one giant leap for mankind.
4
00:02:20,090 --> 00:02:21,990
Good morning, Sunshine.
5
00:02:22,159 --> 00:02:25,424
- Is your sister awake?
- I don't know where she is.
6
00:02:25,596 --> 00:02:28,455
You look like you had a wild night.
7
00:02:29,700 --> 00:02:32,498
- Well, good morning, Your Majesty.
- Good morning.
8
00:02:33,704 --> 00:02:36,036
This time, no circles on my pancakes.
9
00:02:36,207 --> 00:02:39,108
Here we go.
You guys are loopy in the morning.
10
00:02:39,276 --> 00:02:41,437
- Good morning, ladies.
- Good morning.
11
00:02:41,612 --> 00:02:43,773
I don't know about
all this free-range stuff.
12
00:02:43,948 --> 00:02:46,314
I had a calf headed for California.
13
00:02:47,685 --> 00:02:50,916
- There's circles on my pancake.
- Eat your breakfast, please.
14
00:02:51,088 --> 00:02:52,988
- I don't like Jupiter.
- I'm sorry, honey.
15
00:02:53,157 --> 00:02:55,421
It started out as Venus, and it grew.
16
00:02:55,759 --> 00:02:57,954
- I'm not gonna eat it.
- I'm not gonna eat it.
17
00:02:58,796 --> 00:02:59,990
Girls.
18
00:03:00,164 --> 00:03:02,758
You see, the planets are just not aligned.
19
00:03:02,933 --> 00:03:06,266
- Is Shepard up yet?
- No, I think he's still sleeping.
20
00:03:30,527 --> 00:03:33,291
- Morning, sleepyhead.
- Dad.
21
00:03:34,398 --> 00:03:37,367
You got an e-mail from
that weirdo at FuelFourU.
22
00:03:45,342 --> 00:03:47,640
All right. I think we may have our fuel.
23
00:03:53,684 --> 00:03:56,118
What do you think about this sweater
for my dad?
24
00:03:56,287 --> 00:03:59,450
- I'd divorce you.
- Is it the color?
25
00:03:59,623 --> 00:04:01,989
Why don't you buy him
a new arc welder?
26
00:04:02,559 --> 00:04:05,585
You want me to wrap that up,
or should I just give it to you?
27
00:04:05,763 --> 00:04:09,164
What makes you think your dad
would wear a pink turtleneck?
28
00:04:09,333 --> 00:04:11,324
The color is salmon.
29
00:04:12,202 --> 00:04:14,432
That's the color
on the inside of a salmon.
30
00:04:15,172 --> 00:04:18,073
I don't even think a fish
would wear that color on the outside.
31
00:04:20,911 --> 00:04:22,538
Arc welder.
32
00:04:26,183 --> 00:04:27,275
Here we are.
33
00:04:27,451 --> 00:04:30,045
So is my favorite customer coming in?
34
00:04:30,220 --> 00:04:32,780
Well, you gonna loan me a cup of coffee?
35
00:04:34,658 --> 00:04:37,092
Depends on how you're gonna
pay me back.
36
00:04:50,474 --> 00:04:52,339
Oh, how's rocket man?
37
00:04:52,509 --> 00:04:55,410
- He's fine, Frank. Fine.
- We're taking bets.
38
00:04:55,713 --> 00:04:57,943
Really? What are the odds?
39
00:04:58,115 --> 00:05:01,141
The bet is your husband
will never do it...
40
00:05:01,318 --> 00:05:03,946
...or he's gonna blow himself up.
41
00:05:04,521 --> 00:05:05,681
Nice.
42
00:05:06,023 --> 00:05:09,356
Yeah, we're all gonna become rich
on Farmer's failure.
43
00:05:09,526 --> 00:05:11,551
What bet do you wanna cover?
44
00:05:12,963 --> 00:05:15,158
Why don't you cover this, Frank?
45
00:05:18,902 --> 00:05:20,927
This space suit will allow me to control...
46
00:05:21,105 --> 00:05:23,903
...the climate and the pressure
that you need to be in space.
47
00:05:24,375 --> 00:05:27,469
It's kind of like having your own
personal weather inside here.
48
00:05:27,644 --> 00:05:29,509
Because in space, it's very, very cold.
49
00:05:30,781 --> 00:05:31,839
Is there any questions?
50
00:05:33,917 --> 00:05:37,853
Why don't you just put your hands down,
and we'll just kind of wing it here.
51
00:05:38,021 --> 00:05:40,615
- Start here in the front. You.
- Did you buy it at Target?
52
00:05:40,791 --> 00:05:42,156
No, I didn't buy it at Target.
53
00:05:42,326 --> 00:05:44,123
Where did you get it?
54
00:05:44,294 --> 00:05:48,287
Actually, someone was throwing it away,
and I just picked it up.
55
00:05:48,966 --> 00:05:51,127
Have you been to space?
56
00:05:52,169 --> 00:05:55,195
No, not yet.
57
00:05:56,006 --> 00:05:59,806
Stanley has been telling everyone
about their daddy the astronaut.
58
00:06:00,477 --> 00:06:04,436
We need more parents
willing to play dress-up...
59
00:06:04,615 --> 00:06:08,051
...to encourage the kids
to activate their imaginations.
60
00:06:08,218 --> 00:06:09,207
Yes, ma'am.
61
00:06:09,386 --> 00:06:13,322
So many parents just resort
to dressing up as clowns.
62
00:06:13,490 --> 00:06:17,324
You've set a high standard
with this costume.
63
00:06:17,761 --> 00:06:19,991
Well, I appreciate that.
64
00:06:20,164 --> 00:06:21,791
You have a good day.
65
00:06:44,488 --> 00:06:45,819
FuelFourU?
66
00:06:46,423 --> 00:06:47,583
Apollo 13?
67
00:06:49,726 --> 00:06:52,160
You never know
with these online screen names.
68
00:06:53,330 --> 00:06:56,128
I really appreciate you coming out here.
69
00:06:56,633 --> 00:06:58,464
Breakdown for you here.
70
00:07:02,272 --> 00:07:05,139
Ten thousand pounds of fuel.
Is this correct?
71
00:07:05,309 --> 00:07:06,537
Yeah.
72
00:07:06,710 --> 00:07:10,441
- You planning on launching a rocket?
- Yeah.
73
00:07:10,614 --> 00:07:13,845
- You're shitting me, right?
- No.
74
00:07:15,586 --> 00:07:17,747
- Something the matter?
- Well...
75
00:07:19,256 --> 00:07:25,024
...ten pounds, 20 pounds, maybe even
a hundred, that's not a problem.
76
00:07:25,229 --> 00:07:29,222
Ten thousand pounds,
ten thousand problems.
77
00:07:30,133 --> 00:07:33,569
- When do you need it?
- What's the damage?
78
00:07:33,737 --> 00:07:35,466
Fifty grand.
79
00:07:36,273 --> 00:07:37,638
Cash.
80
00:07:41,078 --> 00:07:44,275
You're delinquent
on six mortgage payments already?
81
00:07:45,182 --> 00:07:48,549
I don't know if you understand
how close you are to a foreclosure.
82
00:07:48,719 --> 00:07:51,415
I don't think you understand
how close I am to launching.
83
00:07:51,588 --> 00:07:53,613
Do you know how many times
I've heard that?
84
00:07:53,790 --> 00:07:55,985
Arnie, it's an emergency, okay?
85
00:07:56,159 --> 00:07:57,854
Oh, do I know it's an emergen-
86
00:07:58,028 --> 00:08:00,929
We probably have 15 emergencies
written down right here.
87
00:08:02,966 --> 00:08:06,424
Twenty. Twenty credit extensions.
Who on earth gets 20?
88
00:08:06,837 --> 00:08:09,169
I assumed more than half that debt
from my dad.
89
00:08:09,339 --> 00:08:12,103
And the bank assumes
that you're gonna pay it back.
90
00:08:13,277 --> 00:08:14,608
Can I give you some advice?
91
00:08:14,778 --> 00:08:17,338
I have no money to pay
for that advice, Arnie.
92
00:08:17,514 --> 00:08:19,675
I don't wanna tell you
how to run your business.
93
00:08:19,850 --> 00:08:22,250
- Well, then don't.
- But I have to...
94
00:08:22,419 --> 00:08:26,788
...because I'm your friend first
and a banker second, all right?
95
00:08:27,057 --> 00:08:29,525
Now, folks around here,
they think you're crazy.
96
00:08:29,693 --> 00:08:31,388
I happen to think you're a genius.
97
00:08:31,562 --> 00:08:36,124
You got bad credit,
but you got great character...
98
00:08:38,001 --> 00:08:41,232
...and that rocket ship of yours
is amazing.
99
00:08:41,872 --> 00:08:46,275
But as a friend, I have to
look you in the eye and say that...
100
00:08:46,443 --> 00:08:49,139
...I think it's time you give it a rest.
101
00:08:53,650 --> 00:08:54,912
Bye, Arnold.
102
00:09:00,223 --> 00:09:02,691
I need a payment, Farmer!
103
00:09:24,848 --> 00:09:26,338
Okay.
104
00:09:26,617 --> 00:09:28,847
Ladies and gentlemen,
may I have your attention?
105
00:09:29,019 --> 00:09:31,647
I'm going to the moon,
and I'm bringing a balloon.
106
00:09:32,489 --> 00:09:35,049
I'm going to the moon,
and I'm bringing an oxygen tank.
107
00:09:35,225 --> 00:09:37,921
- I believe you're going to the moon.
- I'm going to the moon...
108
00:09:38,095 --> 00:09:40,825
- ...and I'm bringing Mr. Grump.
- No. But not on the table.
109
00:09:40,998 --> 00:09:43,523
- You can't bring your hamster to the moon.
- Yes, I can.
110
00:09:43,700 --> 00:09:46,828
Yes, she can.
I believe she's going to the moon.
111
00:09:47,871 --> 00:09:51,363
I'm going to the moon,
and I'm gonna bring sugar.
112
00:09:53,310 --> 00:09:57,007
Hey, sweetie, the objective is
to connect a common theme...
113
00:09:57,180 --> 00:09:59,148
...based on what Daddy's bringing.
114
00:09:59,316 --> 00:10:01,250
So I'm sorry, you can't go to the moon.
115
00:10:01,418 --> 00:10:03,113
I never get to go.
116
00:10:03,687 --> 00:10:05,211
Okay, my turn.
117
00:10:05,422 --> 00:10:10,189
I'm going to the moon,
and I'm bringing Sunshine.
118
00:10:10,627 --> 00:10:15,064
Well, since she holds air, I believe
we're all going to the moon.
119
00:10:15,666 --> 00:10:18,829
- What is that button for, Daddy?
- Oh, that button?
120
00:10:19,002 --> 00:10:21,527
You girls better hang on.
It's gonna be a bumpy ride.
121
00:10:21,705 --> 00:10:24,037
We're taking off! We're taking off!
122
00:10:24,341 --> 00:10:27,105
Oh, here we are. We're in space.
123
00:10:27,277 --> 00:10:28,710
Isn't it beautiful out there?
124
00:10:28,879 --> 00:10:30,904
Okay, what's that button for?
125
00:10:31,081 --> 00:10:32,343
- That one?
- Yeah.
126
00:10:32,516 --> 00:10:34,211
That's a very special button too.
127
00:10:34,584 --> 00:10:36,575
That's the one that brings Daddy home.
128
00:10:36,753 --> 00:10:40,484
We have to have that one,
because if Daddy didn't have that button...
129
00:10:41,158 --> 00:10:44,184
...I'd be up there for a long, long time.
130
00:10:44,361 --> 00:10:48,593
Stanley, Sunshine, time for bed.
131
00:10:49,132 --> 00:10:51,726
- Give me a hug, my angels.
- Good night.
132
00:10:51,902 --> 00:10:55,235
Good night. Good night, sweetheart.
133
00:10:55,405 --> 00:10:57,339
See you in a little bit.
134
00:10:57,674 --> 00:10:59,403
- Hey.
- Hey, honey.
135
00:10:59,576 --> 00:11:02,204
- How's it going?
- Pretty good.
136
00:11:02,646 --> 00:11:06,844
I just don't know if these gadgets
are gonna work until I launch, you know.
137
00:11:08,518 --> 00:11:11,043
You don't believe I'm gonna launch it,
do you?
138
00:11:11,488 --> 00:11:14,423
I always believe
you're gonna launch the rocket.
139
00:11:15,592 --> 00:11:19,255
- Someday.
- Well, someday's coming fast.
140
00:11:41,118 --> 00:11:45,248
- Charlie, it's so late.
- I've been working, baby.
141
00:11:53,663 --> 00:11:57,463
Charles, you didn't even take a shower.
You smell like the rocket.
142
00:11:57,634 --> 00:12:01,730
- You could've washed your hands.
- I did. I washed my hands.
143
00:12:02,973 --> 00:12:04,304
Look at this.
144
00:12:04,741 --> 00:12:06,174
Look at that.
145
00:12:07,244 --> 00:12:08,734
Honey, where's your w-?
146
00:12:09,746 --> 00:12:11,373
Where's your wedding ring?
147
00:12:12,382 --> 00:12:14,316
It's in the capsule somewhere.
148
00:12:14,484 --> 00:12:17,214
- Oh, man, in the capsule somewhere.
- Well, honey, I-
149
00:12:18,388 --> 00:12:21,915
Well, it came off.
I'll get it. Don't worry about it.
150
00:12:24,027 --> 00:12:27,258
No, that's not a star.
That's a shooting star.
151
00:12:27,697 --> 00:12:29,961
How come you guys
only eat the marshmallows?
152
00:12:30,133 --> 00:12:32,897
- You don't like the cereal?
- Tastes like wood.
153
00:12:34,671 --> 00:12:37,105
Here, a whole spoonful of marshmallows.
154
00:12:37,274 --> 00:12:39,902
Yeah, but one piece of a cereal.
155
00:12:40,076 --> 00:12:43,068
One piece of a cereal.
Okay, we gotta get that. Oh, there we go.
156
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,009
You know what you guys started me on?
157
00:12:45,182 --> 00:12:48,743
I don't put milk on my cereal anymore,
and it's your fault.
158
00:12:49,052 --> 00:12:51,953
- I don't put milk on my cereal.
- Oh, hey, honey.
159
00:12:52,122 --> 00:12:54,454
Hey. Look who's here.
160
00:12:56,793 --> 00:12:58,920
Hey. Whoa, easy, easy.
Take it easy.
161
00:12:59,095 --> 00:13:00,960
- I love you, Grandpa.
- Go ahead, sweetie.
162
00:13:01,131 --> 00:13:02,894
- Go say hi.
- What are you feeding them?
163
00:13:03,066 --> 00:13:07,366
- Hi, Grandpa.
- Girls. My little tiny people.
164
00:13:07,971 --> 00:13:09,529
Hey, Hal. How you feeling?
165
00:13:09,706 --> 00:13:12,470
I'm actually feeling fine.
166
00:13:12,642 --> 00:13:17,409
- Come sit down, Hal. Come on.
- Here, Grandpa will walk you over, okay?
167
00:13:20,150 --> 00:13:23,517
Boy, you've made real progress.
168
00:13:23,854 --> 00:13:25,219
Yep.
169
00:13:26,423 --> 00:13:28,891
It's gonna take a hell of a lot
more than gunpowder...
170
00:13:29,059 --> 00:13:31,994
...to get this particular aircraft in the air.
171
00:13:32,162 --> 00:13:33,629
Yep.
172
00:13:33,997 --> 00:13:36,056
I never knew it was this big.
173
00:13:41,738 --> 00:13:46,869
Well, you got yourself
some mighty pricey metal here, bud.
174
00:13:47,043 --> 00:13:49,238
Yeah, well, you gotta
have the good stuff.
175
00:13:49,412 --> 00:13:52,813
I'd have more than a carpet burn on my ass
if I didn't protect it.
176
00:13:53,817 --> 00:13:55,580
Farmer?
177
00:13:56,019 --> 00:13:59,113
Hey, Karl. How you doing, man?
178
00:14:02,859 --> 00:14:05,487
I'm gonna need your autograph
for this letter.
179
00:14:05,662 --> 00:14:08,460
Goddamn, it certainly gets my attention.
180
00:14:12,369 --> 00:14:15,065
- Appreciate it. I'll see you later, buddy.
- See you.
181
00:14:34,057 --> 00:14:35,490
What-?
182
00:14:39,462 --> 00:14:41,089
- Farmer!
- You want my house...
183
00:14:41,264 --> 00:14:44,529
- ...I'll give it to you brick by brick.
- It was procedure, Farmer.
184
00:14:45,235 --> 00:14:46,497
I didn't have a choice.
185
00:14:46,670 --> 00:14:49,639
The bank wouldn't stand for it
a day longer, and neither would I.
186
00:14:49,806 --> 00:14:51,137
You're way too overextended.
187
00:14:51,308 --> 00:14:53,902
You're just a banker.
A friend wouldn't do what you did.
188
00:14:54,077 --> 00:14:57,410
If I didn't care about you, I wouldn't
have sent it in. You got 30 days.
189
00:14:57,580 --> 00:15:00,981
Open your eyes. Look at this as
a wake-up call, because the dream is over.
190
00:15:01,151 --> 00:15:03,483
It's gotta stop now,
before you lose everything.
191
00:15:03,887 --> 00:15:05,013
Farmer.
192
00:15:05,188 --> 00:15:08,089
What's up, Chopper? How's your daddy?
193
00:15:08,258 --> 00:15:10,590
Waiting for you. Want a ride?
194
00:15:11,561 --> 00:15:13,756
No, it's all right. Follow me.
195
00:15:17,233 --> 00:15:18,928
What'd you do, Arnie?
196
00:15:21,438 --> 00:15:23,235
How much does he owe the bank,
Arnold?
197
00:15:24,574 --> 00:15:26,906
- Over 600,000 dollars.
- 600,000 dollars?
198
00:15:27,077 --> 00:15:29,409
He's dangerous. He threw a brick at me.
199
00:15:29,579 --> 00:15:33,071
That's enough, Arnold. That's enough.
Will the bank take an apology?
200
00:15:34,551 --> 00:15:37,679
- Well?
- I guess...
201
00:15:37,854 --> 00:15:39,947
Farmer, give the bank an apology.
202
00:15:43,093 --> 00:15:44,583
Say you're sorry.
203
00:15:46,429 --> 00:15:50,058
- Arnold, I'm sorry.
- Great.
204
00:15:50,233 --> 00:15:55,694
Now, Arnold, I'm going to administer
Farmer's spanking in private.
205
00:15:55,872 --> 00:15:58,864
Chopper, could you
see Arnold out for me?
206
00:16:04,614 --> 00:16:05,876
Assume the position.
207
00:16:07,584 --> 00:16:10,280
You're not really gonna whack me
with that thing, are you?
208
00:16:10,453 --> 00:16:12,921
Come on. I've known you all your life.
209
00:16:13,089 --> 00:16:17,150
But I do see you putting your family
and yourself at serious risk.
210
00:16:17,327 --> 00:16:21,093
One day it's a brick,
the next day it's a bullet.
211
00:16:21,531 --> 00:16:23,624
Men have been known
to do desperate things...
212
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,529
...when they're losing their ranches.
213
00:16:26,136 --> 00:16:28,661
I'm gonna ask you to get...
214
00:16:29,406 --> 00:16:32,136
...a psychiatric evaluation.
215
00:16:32,308 --> 00:16:36,745
Before Arnold and me are comfortable
with you in society, you gotta see a shrink.
216
00:16:37,580 --> 00:16:41,983
Go over to the school, see Nurse Goode
over there, and talk to her.
217
00:16:42,819 --> 00:16:44,650
Bring it back to me.
218
00:16:52,695 --> 00:16:54,526
What'd they get you for?
219
00:16:55,065 --> 00:16:57,192
Sleeping in class.
220
00:16:57,567 --> 00:16:59,262
How about you?
221
00:17:00,103 --> 00:17:02,003
I broke a window.
222
00:17:06,543 --> 00:17:09,137
So, what do you wanna be
when you get out of here?
223
00:17:09,312 --> 00:17:10,540
I don't know.
224
00:17:10,713 --> 00:17:13,477
- What do you mean, you don't know?
- I don't know.
225
00:17:14,517 --> 00:17:16,542
Well, let me tell you something...
226
00:17:16,719 --> 00:17:20,052
...you better know what you wanna do
before somebody knows it for you.
227
00:17:20,223 --> 00:17:21,690
Trust me.
228
00:17:22,425 --> 00:17:25,258
Farmer. Nurse Goode can see you now.
229
00:17:25,428 --> 00:17:26,986
Okay.
230
00:17:27,597 --> 00:17:29,724
Well, good luck.
231
00:17:34,938 --> 00:17:36,906
Charlie Farmer.
232
00:17:37,073 --> 00:17:40,406
Hey, Beth. I was supposed to
give you this, the judge said.
233
00:17:40,610 --> 00:17:43,977
Thank you. Okay.
234
00:17:45,148 --> 00:17:50,085
Don't you think that they're a little late
in labeling you crazy?
235
00:17:50,420 --> 00:17:52,012
Jumping off a bridge is crazy.
236
00:17:52,188 --> 00:17:55,715
- Oh, and building a rocket isn't.
- I threw a brick through a window.
237
00:17:55,892 --> 00:17:57,154
That's why I'm here.
238
00:17:57,327 --> 00:18:01,388
Well, how would you like it if we discussed
your desire to leave the planet?
239
00:18:01,564 --> 00:18:03,998
- Not particularly.
- Oh, Charlie.
240
00:18:05,068 --> 00:18:09,562
I don't expect you to open up
and start talking in our very first session.
241
00:18:09,739 --> 00:18:12,333
Session? There's sessions?
242
00:18:12,509 --> 00:18:14,773
We're all onions, Charlie.
243
00:18:14,944 --> 00:18:20,314
We have many, many,
many layers to get through.
244
00:18:20,483 --> 00:18:22,951
See what I'm saying? And, just like...
245
00:18:23,887 --> 00:18:27,288
...well, when you peel an onion,
there may be tears as we come-
246
00:18:27,457 --> 00:18:29,482
Beth, please stop it, okay?
247
00:18:29,659 --> 00:18:34,323
Listen, my daddy never told me
that he loved me.
248
00:18:34,497 --> 00:18:37,432
And, you know, I'm pretty sure
that your daddy never did either.
249
00:18:38,001 --> 00:18:41,027
The resentment that you feel
towards your parents...
250
00:18:41,204 --> 00:18:44,196
...is not going to fuel your rocket.
251
00:18:45,608 --> 00:18:48,304
- Are you done?
- Well, you're not getting it.
252
00:18:48,478 --> 00:18:54,348
The rocket is not going to bring you
a happy childhood.
253
00:18:54,517 --> 00:18:59,978
We all just have to grow up
and just take responsibility.
254
00:19:00,156 --> 00:19:04,115
Remember during our high school prom,
I asked you go to the moon with me?
255
00:19:09,632 --> 00:19:15,093
Well, shoot, Charlie,
that was just about getting laid.
256
00:19:17,307 --> 00:19:18,604
Well, I'm still going.
257
00:19:21,444 --> 00:19:23,241
We're not done, Charlie.
258
00:19:23,413 --> 00:19:25,176
Is this considered another session?
259
00:19:25,348 --> 00:19:27,407
Have you ever thought
of going into teaching?
260
00:19:27,584 --> 00:19:29,575
What the hell would I teach?
What not to do?
261
00:19:29,752 --> 00:19:33,745
No. Charlie, you could inspire
some young kid to do what you can't.
262
00:19:33,923 --> 00:19:36,084
But I can, and I will, Beth.
263
00:19:36,259 --> 00:19:39,695
I hate to be the one breaking it to you,
but you are not an astronaut.
264
00:19:39,862 --> 00:19:42,729
It didn't happen, and that's okay.
265
00:19:42,899 --> 00:19:45,129
You know,
the military's not for everyone...
266
00:19:45,301 --> 00:19:47,895
...but we all just still love you,
and you didn't fail...
267
00:19:48,071 --> 00:19:50,505
- ...and don't look at it that way.
- Oh, I don't.
268
00:19:51,241 --> 00:19:54,733
- Oh, my God, do you need help.
- Yes, you're right, I do need help.
269
00:19:54,911 --> 00:19:57,709
I need to find Shepard
because I gotta launch in 30 days.
270
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,348
You have to find a way
to channel your anger...
271
00:20:00,516 --> 00:20:03,781
...or else it will manifest itself
into something...
272
00:20:03,953 --> 00:20:05,614
...like, you know, a rocket ship.
273
00:20:05,788 --> 00:20:07,949
Charlie Farmer.
274
00:20:08,491 --> 00:20:10,288
Ms. Graham, I'm here to inspire a kid.
275
00:20:12,562 --> 00:20:15,395
I could use an engineer
such as yourself at the house.
276
00:20:15,565 --> 00:20:17,624
Why don't you get your things,
and let's go.
277
00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:21,836
Excuse me, but we're in the middle
of a history lesson.
278
00:20:22,005 --> 00:20:25,441
I apologize, Ms. Graham, but you're
teaching him how to read history...
279
00:20:25,608 --> 00:20:29,476
...and I'm gonna show him how to make it.
You have a good day, hon.
280
00:20:31,114 --> 00:20:33,912
- Where are we going?
- Home.
281
00:20:34,083 --> 00:20:35,675
Home? Do we see the-?
282
00:20:35,852 --> 00:20:38,286
Where's the house?
I don't see it anywhere.
283
00:20:38,454 --> 00:20:40,354
Well, it's a long ways to home.
284
00:20:40,757 --> 00:20:43,351
Every one of you is now part
of the Farmer space program.
285
00:20:43,526 --> 00:20:47,929
If anyone feels that he or she is not fit
to be in the Farmer space program...
286
00:20:48,097 --> 00:20:50,395
...then you should say your piece now.
287
00:20:50,667 --> 00:20:52,692
Does that mean we don't
have to go to school?
288
00:20:53,169 --> 00:20:54,431
Correct.
289
00:20:54,604 --> 00:20:56,697
But every morning,
we're gonna hold class...
290
00:20:56,873 --> 00:20:58,807
...and study your regular subjects...
291
00:20:58,975 --> 00:21:01,375
...so when you return to school,
you won't be behind.
292
00:21:01,544 --> 00:21:04,570
- Yes, sir.
- Any questions?
293
00:21:04,981 --> 00:21:09,680
- Is that all?
- No, honey, not yet.
294
00:21:11,654 --> 00:21:13,349
How big is it?
295
00:21:13,523 --> 00:21:15,957
- It's big.
- Big?
296
00:21:16,125 --> 00:21:19,356
- So you've seen it?
- Of course I have.
297
00:21:19,529 --> 00:21:21,827
And you think that he'll let me see it?
298
00:21:23,399 --> 00:21:26,266
- Depends.
- Depends? On what?
299
00:21:26,436 --> 00:21:30,099
It's not like I'm gonna go
running all over town, "I've seen it."
300
00:21:37,113 --> 00:21:40,412
I'm telling. You told.
301
00:21:51,961 --> 00:21:54,054
Hey. You and Phyllis been out playing?
302
00:21:54,464 --> 00:21:56,261
What's going on?
303
00:21:56,599 --> 00:21:58,567
Why aren't the children in school?
304
00:21:58,735 --> 00:22:02,068
I'll address your issues after the briefing.
We're not quite finished.
305
00:22:02,238 --> 00:22:05,002
Charles, you need to answer my question.
What's going on?
306
00:22:05,775 --> 00:22:08,266
Oh, hey, Hal. You wanna
be part of the program?
307
00:22:08,444 --> 00:22:10,571
- Sir?
- The space program.
308
00:22:12,382 --> 00:22:16,478
- Charles. Bye, Phyllis.
- You guys are released, okay?
309
00:22:16,652 --> 00:22:19,644
I want you here tomorrow morning
at 0500 sharp, okay?
310
00:22:19,822 --> 00:22:22,188
Now, go back to the house. All right.
311
00:22:22,658 --> 00:22:24,592
They're going back to school tomorrow.
312
00:22:24,761 --> 00:22:27,924
It's five weeks maximum,
and they're back at school, I promise you.
313
00:22:28,097 --> 00:22:31,430
You know that they're never gonna
get the kind of education at school...
314
00:22:31,601 --> 00:22:32,795
...that they can get here.
315
00:22:33,202 --> 00:22:35,830
They don't even teach science
in these schools anymore.
316
00:22:36,005 --> 00:22:39,338
You know what Shepard's science teacher
said to him? I mean, get this.
317
00:22:39,509 --> 00:22:41,841
She said, "Science isn't sexy."
318
00:22:42,211 --> 00:22:46,545
I mean, do you want your girls to grow up
only knowing when Mercury's in retrograde?
319
00:22:46,916 --> 00:22:49,009
- You know?
- What the hell happened to you?
320
00:22:49,185 --> 00:22:54,145
It's five weeks maximum, and then
they're back in school, I promise. Okay?
321
00:23:09,038 --> 00:23:10,027
Unit 4-0 to Central.
322
00:23:10,206 --> 00:23:13,073
Do we know how many entrances
there are to this property?
323
00:23:13,242 --> 00:23:16,370
I believe there are four entrances
to the property. Four entrances.
324
00:23:16,546 --> 00:23:19,071
I don't know if they're gated or not.
325
00:23:21,417 --> 00:23:24,181
Suspect has been trying
to secure rocket fuel, over.
326
00:23:24,353 --> 00:23:28,312
Roger, we copy.
Miller is about 100 yards out.
327
00:23:28,491 --> 00:23:31,392
You should be able to see him.
He's coming down the hill, over.
328
00:23:31,561 --> 00:23:35,622
Be aware there are seven suspects. We have
on visual suspect, one Jesus Garcia.
329
00:23:36,332 --> 00:23:37,822
We copy that.
330
00:23:43,372 --> 00:23:46,432
Killbourne, Mathis,
currently securing the barn.
331
00:24:05,061 --> 00:24:06,824
Can I help you?
332
00:24:07,096 --> 00:24:09,462
- Charles Farmer?
- Yeah.
333
00:24:09,632 --> 00:24:12,123
We're with the Federal Bureau
of Investigation.
334
00:24:12,301 --> 00:24:15,099
Sir, we have been made aware,
through electronic documents...
335
00:24:15,271 --> 00:24:19,537
...that you have been searching
for a high-grade fuel commonly used...
336
00:24:21,010 --> 00:24:22,477
...to launch rockets.
337
00:24:22,645 --> 00:24:26,274
Are you aware that you have an illegal
alien working on your premises?
338
00:24:26,449 --> 00:24:29,612
Pepe Garcia. Jesus Garcia.
339
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:31,916
If you cooperate, we could see to it...
340
00:24:32,088 --> 00:24:34,989
...that Mr. Garcia
could stay here with your family.
341
00:24:35,157 --> 00:24:37,489
We're going to the moon.
342
00:24:37,660 --> 00:24:40,754
- That's really rotten.
- It's rather generous of us.
343
00:24:40,930 --> 00:24:42,761
And where is that man going?
344
00:24:45,568 --> 00:24:47,468
It's very simple, Mr. Farmer...
345
00:24:47,637 --> 00:24:51,129
...it's illegal to try to obtain
such a high-grade fuel for private use.
346
00:24:51,307 --> 00:24:54,834
Anyone trying to acquire this kind of fuel
has to be considered a threat.
347
00:24:55,011 --> 00:24:56,103
This is the real deal.
348
00:24:56,646 --> 00:24:58,807
- Well, I'm no threat.
- Well, how do we know...
349
00:24:58,981 --> 00:25:02,144
- ...you're not building a warhead?
- Because I'm not at war.
350
00:25:03,319 --> 00:25:06,254
We just wanna let you know
your little rocket ain't gonna fly...
351
00:25:06,422 --> 00:25:08,652
...as long as we're doing
this investigation.
352
00:25:08,824 --> 00:25:10,314
Yeah.
353
00:25:25,541 --> 00:25:28,806
I filled out the FAA application,
sent it in over six months ago.
354
00:25:28,978 --> 00:25:31,879
Sent all my flight plans,
illustrations of the vessel...
355
00:25:32,048 --> 00:25:34,710
...never heard anything back
saying I couldn't launch.
356
00:25:34,884 --> 00:25:37,114
They didn't think you were serious.
357
00:25:37,286 --> 00:25:41,347
- Well, how can they stop me now?
- Jeez, Farmer.
358
00:25:41,524 --> 00:25:44,721
With this Patriot Act, the way
they've twisted the laws up so much...
359
00:25:44,894 --> 00:25:46,691
...they can do whatever
they please...
360
00:25:46,862 --> 00:25:50,354
...as long as they feel you're a threat
to homeland security.
361
00:25:50,533 --> 00:25:52,296
What do you want me to do?
362
00:25:52,468 --> 00:25:55,699
Well, twist it some more.
Isn't that what lawyers are good at?
363
00:25:56,806 --> 00:25:59,798
All right. Did they say they were
gonna press any charges?
364
00:25:59,976 --> 00:26:02,672
Well, no, not exactly.
They said I'm under investigation.
365
00:26:03,813 --> 00:26:06,338
That means they're gonna
be watching your every move.
366
00:26:07,049 --> 00:26:08,516
Yeah.
367
00:26:10,519 --> 00:26:13,386
I got a buddy in Manhattan.
368
00:26:13,556 --> 00:26:18,357
He's a partner in one of these big firms
that specializes in cases like this.
369
00:26:19,762 --> 00:26:21,525
- Give it a try.
- Maybe he can...
370
00:26:21,697 --> 00:26:23,892
...shed some light on the situation.
371
00:26:24,066 --> 00:26:26,534
He owes me a favor.
It won't cost you a nickel.
372
00:26:26,802 --> 00:26:28,269
Set it up. Grab the boom.
373
00:26:30,206 --> 00:26:33,073
Going into space
doesn't take NASA anymore.
374
00:26:33,242 --> 00:26:37,303
Friends, we are here at the entrance
of the space cowboy's ranch.
375
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,916
We are told that behind me,
in this barn, is a rocket...
376
00:26:41,083 --> 00:26:45,884
...a rocket that Charles Farmer
wants to launch into outer space.
377
00:26:46,055 --> 00:26:48,455
After graduating
from Meriwether Lewis High School...
378
00:26:48,624 --> 00:26:51,320
...he continued his education
at the University of Texas...
379
00:26:51,494 --> 00:26:54,691
...where he received a degree
in aerospace engineering.
380
00:26:54,864 --> 00:26:57,924
Soon after, Charles Farmer
enlisted in the Air Force...
381
00:26:58,100 --> 00:27:02,537
...where he developed his skills as a pilot,
flying such planes as the F-4 Phantom.
382
00:27:03,039 --> 00:27:06,975
The rocketeer Charles Farmer
was in fact training to be an astronaut...
383
00:27:07,143 --> 00:27:09,407
...before he was discharged
from the military.
384
00:27:09,578 --> 00:27:10,943
- Hello.
- Hey, what's up?
385
00:27:11,113 --> 00:27:13,809
Holy cow, Munchak.
You didn't tell me your friend was CNN.
386
00:27:13,983 --> 00:27:16,611
This is what he said.
He said embrace the media, Farmer.
387
00:27:16,786 --> 00:27:18,811
Invite them in.
They're for your protection.
388
00:27:19,188 --> 00:27:20,917
You want them on your side, Farmer.
389
00:27:21,390 --> 00:27:22,982
All right.
390
00:27:24,093 --> 00:27:26,755
He built the rocket.
I'm sure he built a retractable roof.
391
00:27:26,929 --> 00:27:29,022
- Really?
- I don't think he'd build a rocket...
392
00:27:29,198 --> 00:27:30,631
...and forget about the roof.
393
00:27:32,435 --> 00:27:36,166
- Unless he never plans on launching it.
- Then why are we here?
394
00:27:36,839 --> 00:27:39,501
Because if we aren't here,
and he launches...
395
00:27:40,643 --> 00:27:42,270
...we're gonna look like asses.
396
00:27:43,145 --> 00:27:45,579
And if he does, and we are here?
397
00:27:46,782 --> 00:27:49,307
We still look like asses.
398
00:27:50,653 --> 00:27:53,087
- There he is!
- Mr. Farmer!
399
00:27:57,927 --> 00:27:59,656
Mr. Farmer, quick question.
400
00:28:01,997 --> 00:28:05,330
Listen, if you guys settle down
and ask your questions one at a time...
401
00:28:05,501 --> 00:28:07,799
...I'll answer them
to the best of my ability.
402
00:28:07,970 --> 00:28:11,770
Is it important to you that people know
the importance of space travel?
403
00:28:11,941 --> 00:28:15,240
I'll put it to you this way.
There are a lot of people in this world...
404
00:28:15,411 --> 00:28:18,005
...that think Michael Jackson
had the first moonwalk.
405
00:28:18,180 --> 00:28:20,648
Mr. Farmer, when do you plan
on launching your rocket?
406
00:28:20,816 --> 00:28:23,216
- Soon.
- Mr. Farmer, why are you doing this?
407
00:28:24,653 --> 00:28:26,177
It's always been my dream.
408
00:28:36,699 --> 00:28:40,533
The rocket is huge. It's really big.
409
00:28:41,871 --> 00:28:43,133
He's more of an astro-nut.
410
00:28:47,309 --> 00:28:49,709
- Who was it?
- My wife.
411
00:28:50,679 --> 00:28:52,670
She wants an autograph.
412
00:28:52,848 --> 00:28:56,784
You hear about this? There's a guy in Texas
building his own rocket in his back yard.
413
00:28:56,952 --> 00:29:00,547
This guy is planning
on launching himself into orbit.
414
00:29:01,791 --> 00:29:04,259
Here's my question.
Wouldn't it be easier just to say:
415
00:29:04,426 --> 00:29:07,122
"Honey, I want a divorce"?
Okay, wouldn't that be-?
416
00:29:08,798 --> 00:29:10,823
That's not very funny.
417
00:29:11,634 --> 00:29:13,499
Looks like a really beautiful day today.
418
00:29:13,669 --> 00:29:16,229
Afternoon high of 65,
down to 35 tonight.
419
00:29:16,539 --> 00:29:18,871
- Morning, Hal.
- And if you're launching a rocket...
420
00:29:19,041 --> 00:29:21,703
...the weather looks really good
over most of the country.
421
00:29:21,877 --> 00:29:24,345
This is what's known
as the rocket graveyard.
422
00:29:24,513 --> 00:29:27,346
Farmer gathered most of what he needed
from places like this.
423
00:29:27,516 --> 00:29:30,610
If you're looking to build a rocket,
this is the place to start.
424
00:29:34,924 --> 00:29:38,018
Farmer's rocket is housed
in the barn that you're seeing below.
425
00:29:38,194 --> 00:29:41,630
Due to the overwhelming interest,
he has opened his barn to the public...
426
00:29:41,797 --> 00:29:44,027
...allowing them
to view the rocket themselves...
427
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,600
...only hoping to alleviate
some of this congestion.
428
00:29:48,404 --> 00:29:50,304
Can he do it? Well, sure he can.
429
00:29:50,472 --> 00:29:52,804
Now, will he do it? That's to be seen.
430
00:29:53,409 --> 00:29:55,172
There are lots of FAA regulations...
431
00:29:55,344 --> 00:29:58,711
...that keep people from turning
the sky into a playground.
432
00:29:58,881 --> 00:30:00,974
But the astronaut's plans
for space travel...
433
00:30:01,150 --> 00:30:04,813
...first have to be approved by the FAA.
A hearing has been scheduled.
434
00:30:04,987 --> 00:30:07,956
How long will the government
not allow you to launch your rocket?
435
00:30:08,123 --> 00:30:09,920
- They're not stopping me.
- Is it true...
436
00:30:10,092 --> 00:30:13,323
...Elton John plans to re-release
"Rocket Man" to help raise money?
437
00:30:13,896 --> 00:30:15,989
This is exactly
what we didn't want to happen.
438
00:30:16,165 --> 00:30:18,497
Let's get what we can on this guy.
Find something.
439
00:30:18,667 --> 00:30:21,397
We gotta get this space cowboy's
head out of the clouds.
440
00:30:21,570 --> 00:30:23,765
Pack up, boys. We're going to Texas.
441
00:30:26,108 --> 00:30:28,906
Well, the man deserves a second chance.
442
00:30:29,411 --> 00:30:30,639
All right, more presents.
443
00:30:32,815 --> 00:30:34,305
That's the last of it.
444
00:30:36,318 --> 00:30:37,808
Hey, Stanley.
445
00:30:38,354 --> 00:30:40,948
Why don't you change your hamster cage?
Use paper-
446
00:30:41,123 --> 00:30:44,524
Now, wait a minute. I'd like to see that.
Come on, let me have a look.
447
00:30:44,693 --> 00:30:47,127
Don't believe everything you read,
honey. It just...
448
00:30:47,296 --> 00:30:49,628
- I wanna read it.
- I wish she had your paper, Pepe.
449
00:30:49,798 --> 00:30:51,425
She can't read Spanish.
450
00:30:55,304 --> 00:30:56,293
Your dad's right.
451
00:30:56,472 --> 00:30:58,167
- Change your hamster cage.
- Okay.
452
00:30:59,541 --> 00:31:03,773
They called us a cult. They said we were
like a branch of the Moonies or something.
453
00:31:03,946 --> 00:31:06,107
They think our family's
a bunch of space cadets.
454
00:31:06,282 --> 00:31:07,544
I know. I know.
455
00:31:07,716 --> 00:31:10,344
- How can they do that?
- Because they can.
456
00:31:10,519 --> 00:31:15,183
We are a normal family. We need
to go tell everyone that it isn't true.
457
00:31:15,357 --> 00:31:18,383
Well, honey, we just need
to show them, okay?
458
00:31:35,044 --> 00:31:36,875
We got a winner here. It's a winner!
459
00:31:37,046 --> 00:31:38,980
Hey, here you go, bud.
460
00:31:39,214 --> 00:31:40,511
That's what I get?
461
00:32:35,070 --> 00:32:37,300
Don't you worry about them.
462
00:32:37,473 --> 00:32:39,600
Just forget about them, Charles.
463
00:32:58,027 --> 00:33:00,791
- Thank you.
- For what, baby?
464
00:33:03,832 --> 00:33:05,424
For this.
465
00:33:20,049 --> 00:33:24,645
Excuse me. I wanna talk to you
about the ride.
466
00:33:25,621 --> 00:33:26,610
Two tickets.
467
00:33:26,789 --> 00:33:31,749
No, sir. I mean, if I wanted to buy this ride
from you, how much would it cost me?
468
00:33:31,927 --> 00:33:34,452
Well, you can rent it for 500 a week.
469
00:33:35,431 --> 00:33:37,456
- Can we talk some business?
- Sure.
470
00:33:37,633 --> 00:33:40,625
- Yeah?
- Absolutely. You gonna be around?
471
00:33:40,803 --> 00:33:41,997
Yeah, I'll be here.
472
00:34:07,329 --> 00:34:08,387
Colonel Masterson.
473
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,638
Up there in space, you get
a totally different perspective.
474
00:34:23,912 --> 00:34:25,402
Different every time.
475
00:34:25,581 --> 00:34:29,642
Different perspective of the Earth.
Different perspective of yourself.
476
00:34:30,219 --> 00:34:31,811
Every time's completely different.
477
00:34:32,554 --> 00:34:34,078
It's just...
478
00:34:34,790 --> 00:34:37,315
It's just beautiful, is what it is.
479
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:39,759
Beautiful.
480
00:34:40,195 --> 00:34:44,097
You see the world, and you realize
how small we all are.
481
00:34:45,434 --> 00:34:46,924
Life-changing.
482
00:34:47,536 --> 00:34:49,731
Definitely life-changing.
483
00:34:50,706 --> 00:34:52,264
This is good chicken, Audrey.
484
00:34:52,441 --> 00:34:54,932
- Thank you.
- You're about to make me start crying.
485
00:34:57,813 --> 00:35:02,409
My last mission was on the Endeavor.
486
00:35:03,118 --> 00:35:05,052
I don't know who they are.
487
00:35:05,721 --> 00:35:09,020
It's the name of the space shuttle
Colonel Masterson flew on.
488
00:35:10,092 --> 00:35:12,083
We don't have a name for our rocket.
489
00:35:12,261 --> 00:35:13,387
You don't?
490
00:35:14,463 --> 00:35:16,727
You don't have a name
for your rocket, Farmer?
491
00:35:16,899 --> 00:35:19,265
Well, we just hadn't got to that part yet.
492
00:35:19,434 --> 00:35:21,902
We're gonna have to think of some
names, aren't we?
493
00:35:22,070 --> 00:35:23,230
Sunshine?
494
00:35:24,907 --> 00:35:26,966
- Licorice.
- Licorice?
495
00:35:29,711 --> 00:35:31,975
Okay, who's for Licorice?
496
00:35:34,783 --> 00:35:35,807
Okay.
497
00:35:35,984 --> 00:35:40,614
Now, Stanley submitted the name
of the Rockin' Rocket.
498
00:35:40,956 --> 00:35:43,220
- Who wants Rockin' Rocket?
- I like that.
499
00:35:44,660 --> 00:35:47,595
Uncle Eddie has voted
for everything we've said so far.
500
00:35:47,763 --> 00:35:50,596
- I'm taking this as seriously as you are.
- Okay.
501
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,464
Now, Shepard has decided,
as you told me before...
502
00:35:53,635 --> 00:35:56,468
- ...you wanna change your name?
- Yeah, I'm changing my name.
503
00:35:56,638 --> 00:35:58,970
I'll think about it more.
I'm not sure what I want.
504
00:35:59,141 --> 00:36:00,972
Okay. Pepe.
505
00:36:17,392 --> 00:36:18,518
What does that mean?
506
00:36:18,694 --> 00:36:21,492
It ain't gonna be the name of the rocket,
so don't worry.
507
00:36:21,663 --> 00:36:25,121
What does it mean, though?
Because if we're all going to vote on it-
508
00:36:25,300 --> 00:36:27,598
It means "the other woman," honey.
509
00:36:28,337 --> 00:36:32,637
No. You are not voting for that name.
510
00:36:34,309 --> 00:36:37,301
I think we should go out
and see the other woman.
511
00:36:57,099 --> 00:36:59,829
Son of a bitch, Farmer.
512
00:37:09,311 --> 00:37:12,508
- You built this thing?
- Bolt by bolt.
513
00:37:13,181 --> 00:37:16,446
That is some serious engineering.
514
00:37:17,019 --> 00:37:19,419
You don't think they'd have
brought you down here...
515
00:37:19,588 --> 00:37:21,579
...if it was a bottle rocket, do you?
516
00:37:21,757 --> 00:37:23,884
Good grief.
517
00:37:25,994 --> 00:37:29,395
- You're serious about this.
- Absolutely.
518
00:37:38,373 --> 00:37:40,568
Lookie here, you.
519
00:37:45,013 --> 00:37:46,981
What happens...
520
00:37:48,717 --> 00:37:51,618
...if the rocket doesn't launch?
521
00:37:52,888 --> 00:37:56,688
I know it's not the company line here.
I know.
522
00:37:57,826 --> 00:38:00,294
But I'm a dad, baby.
523
00:38:01,930 --> 00:38:07,664
Well, that's why he needs our support
regardless of the outcome.
524
00:38:10,806 --> 00:38:12,740
It's not mandatory.
525
00:38:13,675 --> 00:38:17,577
No, it's love.
526
00:38:38,266 --> 00:38:39,927
What do you think?
527
00:38:44,373 --> 00:38:49,140
I think that it is gonna be one sad-ass day
up here in Farmerville...
528
00:38:49,311 --> 00:38:52,144
...when they haul all your hard work
off to the junkyard.
529
00:38:52,314 --> 00:38:56,182
I think that. What do you think?
530
00:38:58,987 --> 00:39:02,753
You think they're gonna let you
go up into outer space?
531
00:39:02,958 --> 00:39:04,482
A civilian?
532
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,121
They don't let civilians
go up into outer space.
533
00:39:07,295 --> 00:39:09,388
Astronauts go into outer space.
534
00:39:09,564 --> 00:39:11,725
Professional astronauts
who have been trained...
535
00:39:11,900 --> 00:39:14,562
...to withstand the pressures
and the strain...
536
00:39:14,736 --> 00:39:18,934
...and the emotional stress
of leaving your family behind.
537
00:39:19,107 --> 00:39:22,543
Ed, you know my dad died.
That's why I left.
538
00:39:23,412 --> 00:39:26,108
- Of course I know your dad-
- My family needed me.
539
00:39:26,281 --> 00:39:31,184
But if that was a test, you failed.
540
00:39:32,287 --> 00:39:33,948
What do you think NASA was thinking?
541
00:39:34,122 --> 00:39:37,853
This boy's gonna go into outer space.
His dad dies, and he wants to go home.
542
00:39:38,026 --> 00:39:42,326
I thought there's one person on this earth
that might understand, and that's you.
543
00:39:42,898 --> 00:39:46,425
I really- I really didn't expect this.
544
00:39:51,706 --> 00:39:55,107
What if I told you I could get you
a seat on the shuttle?
545
00:39:56,211 --> 00:39:58,679
I'd say I don't wanna
hitch a ride on the bus.
546
00:39:58,847 --> 00:40:01,543
Forget that. Forget about
hitching a ride on the bus, okay?
547
00:40:01,950 --> 00:40:05,545
Forget the rocket. You forget the rocket
that you put a lot of hard work into.
548
00:40:05,720 --> 00:40:09,554
You get these people off your back,
get these idiots with cameras out of here...
549
00:40:09,724 --> 00:40:13,057
...then you go up into outer space
the right way.
550
00:40:13,228 --> 00:40:15,093
The safe way.
551
00:40:16,965 --> 00:40:19,433
- You don't think I can do it, do you?
- Forget that.
552
00:40:19,601 --> 00:40:22,399
This is about money.
Not even millions of dollars anymore...
553
00:40:22,571 --> 00:40:26,564
...billions of dollars. 16.2 billion dollars
in this year's budget alone.
554
00:40:26,741 --> 00:40:28,504
- For what?
- Who cares for what.
555
00:40:28,677 --> 00:40:30,269
For whatever they want.
556
00:40:30,445 --> 00:40:33,642
They're not gonna let you go up
in your John Deere riding lawnmower...
557
00:40:33,815 --> 00:40:36,181
...into outer space
and try and come back down...
558
00:40:36,351 --> 00:40:40,014
...and make them look stupid.
Do you think that's really gonna happen?
559
00:40:41,923 --> 00:40:44,892
Don't answer me now.
I don't want your answer right now.
560
00:40:45,227 --> 00:40:47,491
But I want you to think about it.
561
00:40:53,602 --> 00:40:55,627
Nice rocket, though.
562
00:40:58,907 --> 00:41:01,705
Will Charles Farmer be allowed
to launch his rocket?
563
00:41:01,877 --> 00:41:03,208
That's why we're here today.
564
00:41:03,378 --> 00:41:07,712
The FAA, FBI, CIA, the Department
of Energy, and members of the military.
565
00:41:07,883 --> 00:41:10,283
- They're all here.
- What do you think about all this?
566
00:41:10,452 --> 00:41:12,682
Looks like we got home-field advantage,
don't it?
567
00:41:12,854 --> 00:41:16,722
They're not allowing cameras
or the media inside during the hearing.
568
00:41:47,088 --> 00:41:49,716
We are assembled here
to review an application...
569
00:41:49,891 --> 00:41:52,451
...for the launching of a spacecraft.
570
00:41:52,627 --> 00:41:56,358
We'll be asking a series of questions.
Answer to the best of your knowledge.
571
00:41:56,531 --> 00:41:57,725
Yes, sir.
572
00:41:57,899 --> 00:42:00,493
Let's begin with your flight plan
that you've submitted.
573
00:42:00,669 --> 00:42:03,968
Your plan is to do one complete orbit
of the Earth.
574
00:42:04,139 --> 00:42:08,838
Once completed, the capsule
will re-enter the atmosphere.
575
00:42:09,277 --> 00:42:12,769
Sounds easy. Simple.
576
00:42:13,481 --> 00:42:16,348
- Yes, sir.
- Well, it's not.
577
00:42:17,919 --> 00:42:21,355
I would submit that's the gentleman's
opinion, not a statement of fact.
578
00:42:21,523 --> 00:42:23,423
You are aware this is not a court of law.
579
00:42:23,592 --> 00:42:25,992
I am, but I'm not gonna sit here
like a potted plant.
580
00:42:26,294 --> 00:42:27,921
I hope not.
581
00:42:28,630 --> 00:42:31,565
As head of the FAA, my opinion
might have some credence...
582
00:42:31,733 --> 00:42:33,826
- ...on the subject of space flight.
- Yes, sir.
583
00:42:34,002 --> 00:42:37,233
You based your design
on the Atlas rocket, yes?
584
00:42:37,739 --> 00:42:40,139
- Yes, sir.
- Were you aware that the Atlas...
585
00:42:40,308 --> 00:42:43,141
...comes from the design
of a ballistic missile?
586
00:42:43,311 --> 00:42:45,040
- Yes, sir.
- So basically...
587
00:42:45,213 --> 00:42:48,478
- ...you've built a missile in your barn.
- That's incorrect.
588
00:42:48,650 --> 00:42:50,914
Will Beacon, Central Intelligence Agency.
589
00:42:51,653 --> 00:42:55,646
How do we know
that you're not constructing a WMD?
590
00:42:57,959 --> 00:43:01,827
Well, because if I was building
a weapon of mass destruction...
591
00:43:01,997 --> 00:43:03,589
...you wouldn't be able to find it.
592
00:43:06,701 --> 00:43:10,159
- Very funny, Mr. Farmer.
- That's just the truth.
593
00:43:12,540 --> 00:43:15,475
Here we are. Thanks for waiting.
594
00:43:17,912 --> 00:43:20,005
Hi, thanks for waiting.
Can I take your order?
595
00:43:20,181 --> 00:43:23,912
- Audie Farmer? The astronaut's wife?
- Yes, ma'am. What can I get for you?
596
00:43:24,085 --> 00:43:27,521
Gretchen Boyd
from Child Protective Services.
597
00:43:27,689 --> 00:43:29,782
Would you please sit down?
598
00:43:31,693 --> 00:43:33,593
- No, thank you.
- Mrs. Farmer...
599
00:43:33,895 --> 00:43:35,920
...it has come to our attention...
600
00:43:36,097 --> 00:43:40,796
...that your children, as well as yourself,
may be in harm's way.
601
00:43:43,805 --> 00:43:44,794
How so?
602
00:43:44,973 --> 00:43:49,535
Your husband has literally brainwashed
you and your children.
603
00:43:49,711 --> 00:43:51,542
He's taken them out of school...
604
00:43:51,713 --> 00:43:56,946
...and he has isolated his entire family
from any other outside influence.
605
00:44:00,255 --> 00:44:06,216
It's time you took control of your family
before someone else does it for you.
606
00:44:09,798 --> 00:44:13,757
- Who's your personnel at Mission Control?
- Shepard Farmer, my son.
607
00:44:13,935 --> 00:44:17,063
- Does he have any experience?
- Sure does. Fifteen years.
608
00:44:17,238 --> 00:44:19,069
Is this a joke to you, Mr. Farmer?
609
00:44:19,240 --> 00:44:22,300
A 15-year-old will be the head
of your mission control?
610
00:44:22,477 --> 00:44:25,173
He's perfectly capable
of launching his dad into space.
611
00:44:25,346 --> 00:44:29,339
- Don't underestimate what my child can do.
- Come on. He's 15 years old.
612
00:44:29,517 --> 00:44:34,079
We also have an evaluation that was
done recently by a Dr. Beth Goode.
613
00:44:34,489 --> 00:44:35,786
Nurse Goode?
614
00:44:36,691 --> 00:44:39,159
These are alarming comments
made by the doctor.
615
00:44:39,327 --> 00:44:41,852
She said that Mr. Farmer is angry...
616
00:44:42,697 --> 00:44:44,358
...unstable...
617
00:44:44,532 --> 00:44:45,794
...delusional...
618
00:44:45,967 --> 00:44:49,494
...and that his overall mental health
is in question.
619
00:44:49,671 --> 00:44:54,108
Charlie, your father took his own life,
is that correct?
620
00:44:58,012 --> 00:45:00,105
Don't go there, colonel.
621
00:45:11,993 --> 00:45:14,655
I can tell you right now,
what you have built here...
622
00:45:14,829 --> 00:45:17,559
...is a one-way ticket to the afterlife.
623
00:45:17,732 --> 00:45:20,758
A facility in which Mr. Farmer
could get himself into space.
624
00:45:20,935 --> 00:45:23,369
The U.S. government
has a space program, Mr. Farmer.
625
00:45:23,538 --> 00:45:26,006
Why don't you just leave this
to the professionals?
626
00:45:26,174 --> 00:45:29,803
In 1960 they started a space race.
627
00:45:30,411 --> 00:45:33,312
By 1969 we were on the moon.
628
00:45:33,848 --> 00:45:36,874
Now, in that short period of time,
look what we accomplished.
629
00:45:38,086 --> 00:45:40,748
And in my opinion,
I believe that if some other country...
630
00:45:40,922 --> 00:45:42,947
...wanted to go to the moon
and live there...
631
00:45:43,124 --> 00:45:47,424
...we'd get in a war with them
because we think the moon is ours.
632
00:45:48,329 --> 00:45:50,263
Well, it's not.
633
00:45:51,432 --> 00:45:56,529
Just like it's not your right to tell me
whether or not I can launch into space.
634
00:45:57,005 --> 00:45:58,267
Mr. Farmer, we have laws.
635
00:45:58,439 --> 00:46:00,703
I know we have laws.
We got all kind of laws.
636
00:46:00,875 --> 00:46:04,003
We got more laws to tell us
what we can't do than anything else.
637
00:46:04,179 --> 00:46:07,114
We got laws to protect us
from other laws.
638
00:46:07,282 --> 00:46:10,683
- Comments like that do not help.
- Listen, you've been talking all morning.
639
00:46:10,852 --> 00:46:12,581
Let me talk for a minute.
640
00:46:13,688 --> 00:46:15,178
Okay?
641
00:46:15,723 --> 00:46:17,588
I won't take long.
642
00:46:20,361 --> 00:46:24,229
When I was a kid, they used to tell me
that I could be anything I wanted to be.
643
00:46:26,835 --> 00:46:28,962
No matter what.
644
00:46:30,905 --> 00:46:35,433
And maybe I am insane, I don't know,
but I still believe that.
645
00:46:35,910 --> 00:46:38,344
I believe it with all my heart.
646
00:46:42,083 --> 00:46:44,574
Somewhere along the line...
647
00:46:44,919 --> 00:46:48,377
...we stopped believing
that we could do anything.
648
00:46:50,892 --> 00:46:55,261
And if we don't have our dreams,
we have nothing.
649
00:46:59,634 --> 00:47:01,625
You'll be informed of our decision.
650
00:47:13,414 --> 00:47:15,348
I'm gonna save your life.
651
00:47:16,618 --> 00:47:20,076
I'm gonna tell you something
that no one else in there will tell you.
652
00:47:20,455 --> 00:47:23,856
The U.S. military has enough firepower
pointed at your ranch...
653
00:47:24,025 --> 00:47:26,289
...that if you decide to launch...
654
00:47:26,461 --> 00:47:31,194
...within seconds, your remains
will be spread over five states.
655
00:47:34,469 --> 00:47:37,666
- Is that a threat?
- No.
656
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:40,705
You're the threat.
657
00:47:51,019 --> 00:47:53,783
Don't believe a word he says, Farmer.
658
00:47:53,955 --> 00:47:56,446
Nobody's gonna fire any missiles at you.
659
00:47:56,624 --> 00:47:59,889
They have no law to stop you,
so they're just trying to intimidate you.
660
00:48:00,061 --> 00:48:01,460
I don't know.
661
00:48:03,031 --> 00:48:07,434
Actually, I think they're pretty good
at assassinating people who have dreams.
662
00:48:18,313 --> 00:48:19,644
Where's your helmet?
663
00:48:28,456 --> 00:48:30,583
Now, I think that's it, Mrs. Farmer.
664
00:48:30,758 --> 00:48:32,089
Thank you.
665
00:48:37,298 --> 00:48:40,267
- So is it true?
- What?
666
00:48:40,668 --> 00:48:43,193
Got a million dollars for your story?
667
00:48:43,371 --> 00:48:45,032
No, Vanessa, it's not true.
668
00:48:45,206 --> 00:48:47,265
I won't tell anyone. I read about it in-
669
00:48:47,442 --> 00:48:49,273
Vanessa, it's not true.
670
00:48:50,845 --> 00:48:53,177
Your total is 86.05.
671
00:48:53,348 --> 00:48:56,511
Sorry. Here.
672
00:49:05,460 --> 00:49:06,927
Watch your fingers.
673
00:49:07,962 --> 00:49:11,591
I'm sorry, Mrs. Farmer,
but your card was declined.
674
00:49:12,667 --> 00:49:15,329
Would you like to try another one?
675
00:49:17,105 --> 00:49:18,697
Can you just keep all this here...
676
00:49:18,873 --> 00:49:21,000
...and we'll come back
in a little while, okay?
677
00:49:21,175 --> 00:49:23,075
Come on, girls. Come on.
678
00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:53,598
I'm going to the moon...
679
00:49:54,308 --> 00:49:56,640
...and I'm bringing this brick.
680
00:50:06,287 --> 00:50:08,255
Kids, your mom and I
need a private moment.
681
00:50:08,423 --> 00:50:10,550
No. This has been private long enough.
682
00:50:10,725 --> 00:50:14,354
Now, you can lie to me as much as you
want, Charles, but don't lie to them.
683
00:50:15,897 --> 00:50:17,364
Tell them.
684
00:50:17,799 --> 00:50:20,666
Tell them we might not have a house
in a few weeks.
685
00:50:20,835 --> 00:50:23,702
- Knock it off, Audie, okay, please?
- No, you knock it off.
686
00:50:23,871 --> 00:50:25,998
- Please, knock it off.
- And what was your plan?
687
00:50:26,174 --> 00:50:27,436
Blasting off this Earth...
688
00:50:27,608 --> 00:50:30,941
...and leaving us here to deal with
the consequences? With no money...
689
00:50:31,112 --> 00:50:34,047
- ...nothing, no money for food?
- Oh, really? Is that right?
690
00:50:37,351 --> 00:50:38,750
I'm sorry.
691
00:50:41,322 --> 00:50:44,120
So we don't have any food?
Is that what you think?
692
00:50:44,292 --> 00:50:46,419
Kids, you don't have anything
to worry about...
693
00:50:46,594 --> 00:50:48,824
...because we got plenty of food, okay?
694
00:50:48,996 --> 00:50:49,985
Here's food.
695
00:50:50,465 --> 00:50:53,628
You want macaroni and cheese?
You want salmon in white sauce?
696
00:50:53,801 --> 00:50:55,564
- You want rice pilaf?
- Stop it!
697
00:50:55,736 --> 00:50:59,900
- We got all kinds of food!
- Shepard, take the children out of here.
698
00:51:03,878 --> 00:51:07,075
What, do you wanna throw that?
You gonna throw something at me, Audie?
699
00:51:07,248 --> 00:51:11,912
- Is that what you wanna do? Go ahead!
- You wanna see flying saucers?
700
00:51:12,086 --> 00:51:15,715
Don't you ever accuse me of that again
in front of the kids. You understand me?
701
00:51:15,890 --> 00:51:18,552
You're not taking care of us
when we don't have a home!
702
00:51:19,227 --> 00:51:21,092
You have to keep us safe!
703
00:51:21,262 --> 00:51:25,221
And this dream that we all share
feeds one person, and that's you!
704
00:51:27,301 --> 00:51:31,795
You're gonna lose everything, Charles,
including your family.
705
00:51:45,153 --> 00:51:47,781
Now, I need to clean up this kitchen.
706
00:51:52,126 --> 00:51:54,617
I'm sorry I did this.
707
00:52:04,906 --> 00:52:06,601
Audie.
708
00:52:11,379 --> 00:52:14,974
I love you and those kids
more than anything in this world.
709
00:52:15,983 --> 00:52:19,043
But if I don't do what I believe in...
710
00:52:22,056 --> 00:52:25,822
...then I haven't done them
any good at all.
711
00:52:30,798 --> 00:52:33,494
I have always believed.
712
00:52:35,469 --> 00:52:38,131
I just don't know anymore.
713
00:53:05,933 --> 00:53:08,868
Okay. Here we go.
714
00:53:11,205 --> 00:53:13,605
- Hold Mommy's purse.
- Audie?
715
00:53:16,711 --> 00:53:19,339
Audie, honey, you don't have to leave.
716
00:53:19,981 --> 00:53:22,973
It's Sunday. We're going to church.
717
00:53:24,085 --> 00:53:27,680
I'm hoping they'll learn something about
forgiveness, because they'll need it.
718
00:53:27,855 --> 00:53:31,951
- Come on, Audie, don't do that.
- No, Charles. They worship you.
719
00:53:32,460 --> 00:53:35,122
And so that I don't get bitter...
720
00:53:35,630 --> 00:53:38,463
...and call you an ass for lying to us...
721
00:53:39,900 --> 00:53:43,028
...I'm gonna have to figure out
a way to forgive you.
722
00:53:44,605 --> 00:53:46,334
And so will they.
723
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:01,413
You know, I tell you one thing.
724
00:54:03,224 --> 00:54:06,682
You are one fabulous father.
725
00:54:07,628 --> 00:54:09,357
And you know why, Farmer?
726
00:54:09,997 --> 00:54:14,798
This man couldn't even get his family
to eat dinner together.
727
00:54:16,237 --> 00:54:20,435
But you have got your family...
728
00:54:20,608 --> 00:54:23,008
...dreaming together.
729
00:54:23,678 --> 00:54:26,306
That is big stuff, sir.
730
00:54:27,548 --> 00:54:29,641
Really big stuff.
731
00:54:36,824 --> 00:54:40,316
Boy, they gotta burn a lot of fuel
to run them cars, you know it?
732
00:54:42,963 --> 00:54:46,455
Gotta wonder if all them cars would
be going around in circles like that...
733
00:54:46,634 --> 00:54:48,966
...if they didn't have all that advertising.
734
00:54:53,574 --> 00:54:56,805
The fact of the matter is, Doug,
if you advertise on my rocket...
735
00:54:56,977 --> 00:54:58,410
...it's gonna raise your sales.
736
00:54:58,579 --> 00:55:01,571
It just stands to reason.
Plus, you'll be getting attention...
737
00:55:01,749 --> 00:55:04,809
...that you normally wouldn't get
from conventional methods.
738
00:55:04,985 --> 00:55:07,977
Now, I've got a letter out
to the CEO of Coca-Cola.
739
00:55:08,155 --> 00:55:09,918
I expect to hear back from them soon.
740
00:55:10,091 --> 00:55:12,958
If they come onboard,
they'll be right here.
741
00:55:13,127 --> 00:55:18,087
But before they come on and paint
the whole thing red, you got your choice.
742
00:55:18,699 --> 00:55:20,132
I mean, look at this.
743
00:55:21,469 --> 00:55:23,130
Can you imagine?
744
00:55:23,838 --> 00:55:27,501
Dunkin' Donuts blasting off into space.
745
00:55:27,675 --> 00:55:29,438
What if your mission's aborted...
746
00:55:29,610 --> 00:55:32,579
...or your success doesn't measure
to this final statement?
747
00:55:32,980 --> 00:55:36,472
- What are you implying?
- The risk factor is high, Farmer.
748
00:55:36,650 --> 00:55:38,015
But it's an educated risk.
749
00:55:39,086 --> 00:55:41,145
Did you read the case study on Tang?
750
00:55:41,322 --> 00:55:44,485
The profits they made off putting
that orange dust up onboard.
751
00:55:45,025 --> 00:55:47,459
I've made a graph. Did you look at it?
752
00:55:47,628 --> 00:55:49,960
Oh, yeah, Tang.
I raised three kids on that stuff.
753
00:55:50,131 --> 00:55:51,496
Well, it's full of vitamins.
754
00:55:51,665 --> 00:55:54,133
What's that little old cheesy deal
y'all got now?
755
00:55:54,301 --> 00:55:57,270
I mean, tell me what happens
if your whole mission goes to shit.
756
00:55:57,438 --> 00:56:01,033
- I mean, I can't deal with much more of it.
- You mean, like, if I die?
757
00:56:01,208 --> 00:56:04,143
If something were
to happen to you, Farmer...
758
00:56:04,311 --> 00:56:07,769
...candy sprinkles, M&M's,
Oreo cookies...
759
00:56:07,948 --> 00:56:10,178
...there's no amount of topping...
760
00:56:10,951 --> 00:56:14,148
...that would cover the amount
of guilt that I would have.
761
00:56:14,321 --> 00:56:15,982
Look, if you die...
762
00:56:16,157 --> 00:56:20,753
...the book deal, Good Morning America,
that TV movie, Jay Leno...
763
00:56:20,928 --> 00:56:22,828
...all that vanishes.
764
00:56:22,997 --> 00:56:26,660
Without a successful mission, I don't
see the profits breaking into the red.
765
00:56:26,834 --> 00:56:29,166
I might as well go put my money
in Kleenex stock...
766
00:56:29,703 --> 00:56:33,070
...because all you're gonna be producing
is a ton of tears.
767
00:56:33,908 --> 00:56:36,035
But if you circle the world...
768
00:56:36,210 --> 00:56:39,839
...you land back over in your back yard
like your mission plan says...
769
00:56:40,748 --> 00:56:43,478
...you're a man-made American hero.
770
00:56:44,118 --> 00:56:47,144
Now if I could only launch a rocket
with jelly doughnuts.
771
00:56:47,321 --> 00:56:49,846
Sunshine, why don't you go
give your grandpa one, okay?
772
00:56:50,024 --> 00:56:53,016
He loves the sprinkles.
Take Grandpa a doughnut. There you go.
773
00:56:53,194 --> 00:56:55,424
- Take Grandpa a doughnut.
- Just have two, okay?
774
00:56:55,663 --> 00:56:57,324
Just two.
775
00:56:57,965 --> 00:57:00,957
- Do you want one?
- No, honey, I've already had three or four.
776
00:57:01,135 --> 00:57:03,365
With, like, seven cups of coffee and...
777
00:57:04,972 --> 00:57:07,497
Grandpa, here's a doughnut.
778
00:57:07,975 --> 00:57:10,500
Grandpa, here's a doughnut.
779
00:57:17,384 --> 00:57:19,375
- Grandpa no wake up.
- What, sweetie?
780
00:57:21,121 --> 00:57:23,282
Grandpa no wake up.
781
00:57:38,239 --> 00:57:39,706
Dad?
782
00:57:45,846 --> 00:57:47,609
Oh, Dad.
783
00:58:43,237 --> 00:58:45,671
There are no stop signs up there.
784
00:58:48,509 --> 00:58:50,500
There is no defining space.
785
00:58:53,881 --> 00:58:56,509
We have always defined our space.
786
00:58:58,586 --> 00:59:01,521
A wall here, a room there.
787
00:59:03,257 --> 00:59:06,124
A hallway, a road.
788
00:59:07,861 --> 00:59:12,491
We have this way of dividing our space
until it equals a direction.
789
00:59:15,636 --> 00:59:18,503
We even created a space for the dead.
790
00:59:21,709 --> 00:59:24,940
Space is a difficult thing to grasp.
791
00:59:28,282 --> 00:59:30,147
Man, Farmer...
792
00:59:30,417 --> 00:59:32,851
...you have the most abstract thoughts.
793
00:59:33,787 --> 00:59:36,153
They don't make any sense at all.
794
00:59:36,657 --> 00:59:41,060
I'm just waiting for the other thoughts
to string all this mess together.
795
00:59:43,030 --> 00:59:44,497
Hey, who's that out there?
796
00:59:47,968 --> 00:59:50,835
Maybe one of Hal's long-lost friends.
797
01:00:00,581 --> 01:00:02,139
How you doing?
798
01:00:02,850 --> 01:00:05,148
How many head of cattle
do you run out here?
799
01:00:05,986 --> 01:00:08,011
Enough to suit me.
800
01:00:08,689 --> 01:00:10,782
You are the property owner?
801
01:00:12,993 --> 01:00:14,392
Yeah.
802
01:00:14,962 --> 01:00:17,328
- Charles Farmer.
- Correct.
803
01:00:17,498 --> 01:00:20,058
I'm appraising your land
for First National Bank...
804
01:00:20,234 --> 01:00:22,566
...who's actively seeking a foreclosure.
805
01:00:22,736 --> 01:00:24,226
What was your name?
806
01:00:25,105 --> 01:00:26,572
Sir?
807
01:00:27,441 --> 01:00:29,602
- What was your name again?
- Robert Wilson.
808
01:00:29,777 --> 01:00:31,608
Robert, nice to meet you.
809
01:00:31,845 --> 01:00:35,042
You know, I own 352 acres.
810
01:00:35,215 --> 01:00:37,547
Did you ever try to find a body
on that much land?
811
01:00:40,621 --> 01:00:42,782
I'm not the bad guy here, mister.
812
01:00:44,024 --> 01:00:46,322
Well, you're not the good guy either.
813
01:00:59,039 --> 01:01:02,475
Shep, look here. I think I've figured out
another way to make our fuel.
814
01:01:02,643 --> 01:01:05,237
We combine kerosene with hydrazine.
815
01:01:05,412 --> 01:01:06,470
Are you sure, Dad?
816
01:01:06,647 --> 01:01:10,242
Son, I don't know another way to do it
unless we completely modify the engine.
817
01:01:10,417 --> 01:01:12,908
Plus, we got all the stuff
right here in the barn.
818
01:01:13,554 --> 01:01:16,022
The fuel will still be pumped in
at a high pressure...
819
01:01:16,190 --> 01:01:17,782
...and it'll burn in the chamber...
820
01:01:17,958 --> 01:01:21,086
...create the same exhaust gases
as the high-grade rocket fuel.
821
01:01:21,495 --> 01:01:24,828
That should provide enough thrust
to send me into orbit.
822
01:01:25,799 --> 01:01:27,494
Make sense?
823
01:01:28,368 --> 01:01:30,233
Yeah. Yeah.
824
01:01:33,006 --> 01:01:34,132
Farmer?
825
01:01:34,708 --> 01:01:38,075
- Yeah, I'm down here in the engine room.
- Hey.
826
01:01:39,113 --> 01:01:42,947
- They made a ruling yet?
- Why do you think I'm here?
827
01:01:44,518 --> 01:01:47,453
The committee wants 60 days
to make a ruling.
828
01:01:48,055 --> 01:01:51,491
But I don't have 60 days.
The bank's gonna foreclose in a week.
829
01:01:51,658 --> 01:01:53,717
I'm aware of that.
830
01:01:59,299 --> 01:02:02,928
- I just don't have that kind of time.
- That's their plan.
831
01:02:03,103 --> 01:02:05,003
Do you think they want you
to launch this?
832
01:02:05,172 --> 01:02:06,662
They'll stall, stall, stall.
833
01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:09,866
And then there'll be appeals.
This'll go on forever.
834
01:02:10,277 --> 01:02:12,939
- Yeah.
- Are you ready for that?
835
01:02:29,596 --> 01:02:31,928
I'm sorry about the ruling, Farmer.
836
01:02:35,035 --> 01:02:36,161
Yeah.
837
01:02:41,708 --> 01:02:44,040
You know, my father loved ranching.
838
01:02:46,113 --> 01:02:48,138
He loved it with all his heart.
839
01:02:52,452 --> 01:02:54,647
It was his dream.
840
01:03:00,127 --> 01:03:02,391
Then when it got tough...
841
01:03:03,096 --> 01:03:06,429
...and he knew they were gonna
try to take it away from him...
842
01:03:08,168 --> 01:03:10,932
...he put a gun to his head...
843
01:03:12,406 --> 01:03:14,601
...before they could.
844
01:03:19,780 --> 01:03:22,510
And that bullet's still traveling.
845
01:03:24,685 --> 01:03:26,585
It just keeps on going.
846
01:03:27,254 --> 01:03:30,155
And now it's headed
straight for my dream.
847
01:03:33,060 --> 01:03:36,655
Just promise me
you're not gonna do something stupid.
848
01:03:36,964 --> 01:03:41,162
- Like what? Build a rocket?
- No.
849
01:03:41,435 --> 01:03:43,835
You know better than that.
850
01:03:46,206 --> 01:03:48,800
I've walked away before...
851
01:03:49,877 --> 01:03:52,402
...and I can't walk away again.
852
01:03:52,713 --> 01:03:54,772
Charles?
853
01:03:56,316 --> 01:03:58,978
I can't just keep failing.
854
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,015
I hope you understand that.
855
01:04:04,992 --> 01:04:07,187
I promise you everything will be okay.
856
01:04:07,361 --> 01:04:08,350
No.
857
01:04:12,833 --> 01:04:14,664
Shepard!
858
01:04:39,326 --> 01:04:40,315
Come on.
859
01:04:55,075 --> 01:04:56,736
Damn!
860
01:05:58,405 --> 01:05:59,702
Charlie.
861
01:06:00,007 --> 01:06:01,565
Charlie, can you hear me?
862
01:06:03,076 --> 01:06:06,910
No, don't move. Don't move your body.
Don't move it, sweetie.
863
01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:08,069
Oh, my God.
864
01:06:08,248 --> 01:06:12,207
Don't you dare leave this family.
You stay with me!
865
01:06:27,701 --> 01:06:30,602
Six broken ribs. Broken left wrist.
866
01:06:30,937 --> 01:06:33,497
Compound fracture to the fibula.
867
01:06:33,673 --> 01:06:37,234
Severe head trauma.
Multiple lacerations to the face.
868
01:06:42,416 --> 01:06:44,577
Is there any good news?
869
01:06:45,919 --> 01:06:47,853
He's alive.
870
01:07:25,959 --> 01:07:27,426
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
871
01:07:27,594 --> 01:07:30,586
You gotta be strong
for your daddy, now, okay?
872
01:07:30,897 --> 01:07:36,164
Now, he wants to hear how much
we love him, okay? It's really important.
873
01:07:43,410 --> 01:07:44,468
You okay?
874
01:07:45,679 --> 01:07:48,910
Yeah? How about you?
You all right, sweetheart?
875
01:07:49,182 --> 01:07:50,979
Stanley?
876
01:07:51,151 --> 01:07:52,413
Come here, sweetheart.
877
01:07:52,586 --> 01:07:54,349
Why don't we go get
something to drink.
878
01:07:54,521 --> 01:07:56,045
Will you stay with him, honey?
879
01:07:56,423 --> 01:07:59,153
Stanley? Stanley. Honey.
880
01:08:15,142 --> 01:08:16,666
Dad?
881
01:08:21,581 --> 01:08:24,015
It's Shep, Dad.
882
01:08:31,158 --> 01:08:33,854
I was looking in the barn today...
883
01:08:34,561 --> 01:08:37,689
...and we can build another one
just like it. I swear we can.
884
01:08:37,864 --> 01:08:39,957
We have everything
right in there in the barn.
885
01:08:40,133 --> 01:08:41,327
We could build everything.
886
01:08:41,501 --> 01:08:44,902
I swear, we can build another one
just like it. We just need you back.
887
01:08:48,775 --> 01:08:52,734
You can't give up. You can't give up.
888
01:09:15,335 --> 01:09:18,771
And, children, when they say,
"Don't try this at home," they mean it.
889
01:09:19,472 --> 01:09:22,339
Okay. Go ahead. Yeah. What? Okay.
890
01:09:22,509 --> 01:09:25,478
Ask them how long they want us
to stay here. Ask them.
891
01:09:25,645 --> 01:09:29,046
Okay. Yeah. All right.
892
01:09:29,216 --> 01:09:31,411
They told us to hang tight.
893
01:09:34,287 --> 01:09:37,848
Grab a couple of these mugs.
They make good souvenirs.
894
01:09:40,393 --> 01:09:41,655
There's no logo on them.
895
01:09:42,395 --> 01:09:46,798
The blending of high-test rocket fuel
is clearly not a project for amateurs.
896
01:09:46,967 --> 01:09:50,130
This is why we have such strict rules
and regulations in place.
897
01:09:50,303 --> 01:09:53,602
Space flight is a serious endeavor,
not to be taken lightly.
898
01:09:54,140 --> 01:09:57,507
We can only hope
that through this near-fatal tragedy...
899
01:09:57,677 --> 01:09:59,941
...other space enthusiasts
get the real message...
900
01:10:00,113 --> 01:10:04,641
...displayed by Mr. Farmer here,
and not the one hyped up by the media.
901
01:10:04,818 --> 01:10:06,547
No further questions.
902
01:10:35,348 --> 01:10:37,680
How stupid I am.
903
01:10:39,886 --> 01:10:43,253
This a lecture
that you want me to hear?
904
01:10:44,190 --> 01:10:45,748
No.
905
01:10:48,094 --> 01:10:50,460
You're alive, stupid.
906
01:10:54,434 --> 01:10:57,028
They gotta get me some cereal.
907
01:11:41,448 --> 01:11:43,313
I'm going to the moon,
and I'm bringing-
908
01:11:43,483 --> 01:11:46,611
Oh, sweetie, let's not
play that game tonight, okay?
909
01:11:48,254 --> 01:11:50,119
But why?
910
01:11:51,391 --> 01:11:53,859
Because she said so.
911
01:11:55,161 --> 01:11:56,321
Please, honey.
912
01:12:31,765 --> 01:12:33,323
It's okay.
913
01:12:34,234 --> 01:12:39,035
Shepard, you gotta give him some time.
914
01:12:41,808 --> 01:12:46,745
Daddy's real tired, you know?
He needs to- He needs to get some rest.
915
01:13:10,470 --> 01:13:14,531
Albeit handwritten, your dad's will
is pretty straightforward.
916
01:13:15,041 --> 01:13:17,236
Three trust funds for the kids.
917
01:13:17,410 --> 01:13:20,971
After that, 200,000 in assets.
Another 100,000 in cash.
918
01:13:21,748 --> 01:13:24,080
Some stocks and bonds.
919
01:13:24,784 --> 01:13:26,615
It's all yours.
920
01:13:27,587 --> 01:13:30,249
Troubles with the bank are over, anyway.
921
01:13:32,258 --> 01:13:33,782
Thank you.
922
01:14:07,727 --> 01:14:09,957
- Look, I found one!
- Look, I found one!
923
01:14:10,597 --> 01:14:12,360
That's good, baby.
924
01:14:16,669 --> 01:14:20,230
- Look, I found one again!
- Look, I found one again!
925
01:14:29,315 --> 01:14:32,842
Have them come get that rocket
and take it to the junkyard.
926
01:14:33,319 --> 01:14:36,584
- Charles.
- Audie, it's already hurt them enough.
927
01:14:40,059 --> 01:14:42,823
I don't want it
to hurt this family anymore.
928
01:14:57,844 --> 01:15:02,178
Well, everything is now current
and up-to-date.
929
01:15:02,348 --> 01:15:05,681
I have stopped the foreclosure.
No worries.
930
01:15:05,852 --> 01:15:07,285
Thanks, Arnie.
931
01:15:08,221 --> 01:15:10,212
You did the right thing.
932
01:15:12,025 --> 01:15:14,016
Oh, boy.
933
01:15:14,727 --> 01:15:18,561
Did Farmer have us all believing
he was going off into outer space.
934
01:15:24,304 --> 01:15:26,363
How stupid do we look?
935
01:15:33,980 --> 01:15:35,447
What?
936
01:15:43,022 --> 01:15:44,580
When we took our vows...
937
01:15:44,757 --> 01:15:47,954
...we promised to love each other
in sickness and in health.
938
01:15:49,796 --> 01:15:54,529
Did that mean mental health?
Because you are crazy.
939
01:15:56,703 --> 01:15:59,900
I mean, when you first said you wanted
to go into space, I thought:
940
01:16:00,073 --> 01:16:03,873
"Well, what man doesn't say
he wants his space?"
941
01:16:05,712 --> 01:16:07,145
The difference is, now...
942
01:16:07,914 --> 01:16:09,814
...we have a family.
943
01:16:11,217 --> 01:16:14,209
A beautiful family.
944
01:16:14,687 --> 01:16:17,417
And I see how the girls look at you.
945
01:16:18,825 --> 01:16:20,918
They adore you.
946
01:16:23,329 --> 01:16:27,288
They love their daddy
who wants to go into space.
947
01:16:29,168 --> 01:16:33,298
I don't wanna be responsible
for killing that hope in their eyes.
948
01:16:34,007 --> 01:16:36,942
And what kind of message
would you be sending to Shepard?
949
01:16:38,745 --> 01:16:42,203
I want his dad to show him
how it's done.
950
01:16:48,087 --> 01:16:49,645
Now, look.
951
01:16:54,293 --> 01:16:59,890
There's enough money in there
for you to do whatever you need to do.
952
01:17:05,204 --> 01:17:06,535
Without the rocket...
953
01:17:07,707 --> 01:17:10,301
...we're just a dysfunctional family.
954
01:17:41,441 --> 01:17:44,638
We'll rebuild the rocket
to the exact specifications as the original.
955
01:17:44,811 --> 01:17:47,803
I've inventoried all materials on hand.
Awaiting delivery on...
956
01:17:47,980 --> 01:17:50,244
Three spherical oxygen bottles.
957
01:17:51,250 --> 01:17:54,515
- Three thousand linear feet of 20-gauge...
- Unlike the first launch...
958
01:17:54,687 --> 01:17:56,177
...this fuel will burn evenly...
959
01:17:56,355 --> 01:17:59,119
...giving us the right amount of thrust
needed to launch...
960
01:17:59,292 --> 01:18:03,661
- Twenty MCM submodule components.
- Lithium hydroxide canisters...
961
01:18:05,965 --> 01:18:10,095
- There are plenty of alternative fuels.
- We have to find them legitimately.
962
01:18:10,369 --> 01:18:15,397
The altitude would be 100 miles
and the speed would be 25,000...
963
01:18:15,975 --> 01:18:18,136
Fire-protective fabric.
964
01:18:23,483 --> 01:18:25,781
- Test.
- Testing.
965
01:18:27,653 --> 01:18:30,781
The rocket will be launched from the barn,
heading 72.51 degrees...
966
01:18:30,957 --> 01:18:33,482
Five thousand linear feet 30-gauge...
967
01:18:35,428 --> 01:18:37,396
Two hundred linear feet...
968
01:18:42,034 --> 01:18:44,867
Oxygen could last
three times longer than needed...
969
01:18:45,037 --> 01:18:47,267
...but let's not put that to the test.
970
01:19:13,533 --> 01:19:17,025
You know, when you're a kid,
you wanna be just like your dad.
971
01:19:17,637 --> 01:19:19,434
Then when you're a teenager...
972
01:19:19,605 --> 01:19:22,335
...you don't wanna have
anything to do with him.
973
01:19:23,209 --> 01:19:26,144
Then when you grow up,
you end up just like him.
974
01:19:27,213 --> 01:19:30,649
My dad showed me one thing
when he died.
975
01:19:32,018 --> 01:19:34,987
He wasn't dying, he was giving up.
976
01:19:37,957 --> 01:19:43,953
No matter what happens to me today,
my children will see that I didn't give up.
977
01:19:45,498 --> 01:19:47,796
And I can die knowing that.
978
01:20:03,182 --> 01:20:05,207
Yeah.
979
01:20:07,553 --> 01:20:09,145
Man.
980
01:20:09,555 --> 01:20:12,080
We have been out here way too long.
981
01:20:18,965 --> 01:20:23,425
Okay. Yeah, okay. Okay.
982
01:20:23,603 --> 01:20:26,504
- What?
- Headquarters. Rocket Man's buying fuel.
983
01:20:27,139 --> 01:20:30,006
Suspect Charles Farmer. Male Caucasian.
984
01:20:30,176 --> 01:20:32,804
Approximately 5'10", 170 pounds.
985
01:20:32,979 --> 01:20:37,973
Last seen in a brown Ford pickup
bearing east on Route 9.
986
01:20:55,935 --> 01:20:58,199
Now, this launch is gonna take
all the strength...
987
01:20:58,371 --> 01:21:00,362
...and all the focus this family has.
988
01:21:00,940 --> 01:21:04,137
You're my crew, my teammates.
989
01:21:06,545 --> 01:21:09,537
Well, thank you, honey.
I can use these, you know.
990
01:21:11,017 --> 01:21:15,545
- Is Daddy gonna come back?
- Yeah, I'm coming back.
991
01:21:16,022 --> 01:21:17,649
Don't you worry.
992
01:21:18,124 --> 01:21:22,026
- I love you, honey.
- I love you too.
993
01:21:27,700 --> 01:21:30,965
It'll be okay. Don't you worry.
994
01:21:37,109 --> 01:21:38,974
I love you guys.
995
01:21:42,815 --> 01:21:44,009
Now, Shepard.
996
01:21:44,183 --> 01:21:47,949
If anything's gonna go wrong,
it'll go wrong in the first 10 minutes.
997
01:21:48,120 --> 01:21:50,179
- After that, I'll be airborne.
- Dad-
998
01:21:50,356 --> 01:21:53,382
It's okay. I'm not worried about you.
999
01:21:54,427 --> 01:21:57,521
- You can do it.
- All right.
1000
01:22:04,870 --> 01:22:06,360
Audie...
1001
01:22:07,573 --> 01:22:09,006
...it's gonna be okay.
1002
01:22:13,112 --> 01:22:15,171
Please don't break my heart.
1003
01:22:16,549 --> 01:22:17,743
I won't.
1004
01:22:29,328 --> 01:22:32,092
Step away from the vehicle!
Show me your hands!
1005
01:22:33,366 --> 01:22:36,028
Put your hands up! Let me see them!
1006
01:22:37,403 --> 01:22:39,871
- Right there, right there.
- Let me see those hands.
1007
01:22:40,039 --> 01:22:42,064
Turn around slowly.
1008
01:22:51,517 --> 01:22:53,883
I expect you home for dinner.
1009
01:22:57,023 --> 01:22:58,388
Dad, do you copy?
1010
01:22:58,557 --> 01:23:00,582
Now we look like asses.
1011
01:23:02,428 --> 01:23:03,417
Control Booth.
1012
01:23:03,796 --> 01:23:07,630
Preparation for launch underway.
Local temperature, 65 degrees.
1013
01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:10,963
Wind speed, four knots.
Opening canopy doors.
1014
01:23:12,705 --> 01:23:15,299
Cabin pressure holding 5.8.
1015
01:23:15,474 --> 01:23:18,102
Fuel and oxygen are steady.
Power still looks good.
1016
01:23:18,978 --> 01:23:20,912
Status is good.
1017
01:23:21,714 --> 01:23:23,944
Canopy doors cleared for launch.
1018
01:23:24,316 --> 01:23:28,013
All remaining units
report to the Farmer residence.
1019
01:23:28,888 --> 01:23:30,913
- Ready for system check.
- Roger.
1020
01:23:31,090 --> 01:23:35,254
Hydraulics okay. Fuel pressure's okay.
All systems go.
1021
01:23:35,428 --> 01:23:37,419
- Roger.
- Vessel restraints unlocked.
1022
01:23:37,596 --> 01:23:38,961
Ignition system on.
1023
01:23:39,131 --> 01:23:44,569
Abort system on standby.
Cleared for launch at zero hour, 9 a.m.
1024
01:23:45,504 --> 01:23:47,096
Roger.
1025
01:23:48,641 --> 01:23:49,630
Ten...
1026
01:23:49,809 --> 01:23:50,935
...nine...
1027
01:23:51,510 --> 01:23:52,670
...eight...
1028
01:23:52,845 --> 01:23:55,279
...seven, six...
1029
01:23:55,448 --> 01:23:56,813
...five, four...
1030
01:23:57,683 --> 01:23:58,672
...three...
1031
01:23:59,018 --> 01:24:01,680
...two, one.
1032
01:24:33,486 --> 01:24:35,454
It's okay. It's okay.
1033
01:24:56,609 --> 01:24:58,099
Fuel is go.
1034
01:24:59,512 --> 01:25:00,774
- Go, Dad, go!
- Go, Dad!
1035
01:25:04,283 --> 01:25:06,581
That is so huge.
1036
01:25:10,856 --> 01:25:13,051
Charlie Farmer.
1037
01:25:19,398 --> 01:25:21,730
Oxygen in the cabin is good.
1038
01:25:21,901 --> 01:25:25,337
Pressure's holding.
The isolated battery's okay.
1039
01:25:27,973 --> 01:25:31,306
Everything's okay. Son of a bitch.
1040
01:25:48,460 --> 01:25:51,896
It's getting a little smoother.
A little smoother.
1041
01:25:58,337 --> 01:26:01,829
Cut off, tower. Jettison green. Disarm.
1042
01:26:10,115 --> 01:26:12,208
Charles Farmer launched!
1043
01:26:15,654 --> 01:26:16,848
No, he didn't.
1044
01:26:44,283 --> 01:26:49,084
Capsule separation, green, okay.
1045
01:26:50,322 --> 01:26:52,620
We did it, Shepard!
1046
01:26:53,626 --> 01:26:55,423
We did it!
1047
01:26:57,263 --> 01:26:58,662
We made it, Mom.
1048
01:27:22,087 --> 01:27:24,578
This is where the dreams live.
1049
01:27:41,840 --> 01:27:43,808
I'm up here.
1050
01:27:47,279 --> 01:27:49,110
Africa.
1051
01:27:56,922 --> 01:27:58,856
- Hi, Daddy.
- Hi, Daddy.
1052
01:28:00,959 --> 01:28:03,621
God, I wish you were with me.
1053
01:28:04,463 --> 01:28:07,091
I wish you guys were here so bad.
1054
01:29:14,466 --> 01:29:18,163
Have you heard about this guy,
Charlie Farmer, who built his own rocket?
1055
01:29:19,872 --> 01:29:21,567
Shepard.
1056
01:29:25,110 --> 01:29:27,305
Shepard, can you hear me?
1057
01:29:29,748 --> 01:29:31,579
Shepard.
1058
01:29:36,054 --> 01:29:38,113
- Shepard?
- Dad.
1059
01:29:41,960 --> 01:29:43,484
Shepard.
1060
01:29:44,763 --> 01:29:46,663
Shepard, can you hear me?
1061
01:29:47,065 --> 01:29:48,828
Come on.
1062
01:29:52,971 --> 01:29:56,065
- Where is he?
- Dad, please come in.
1063
01:29:58,076 --> 01:30:00,169
- Dad, are you there? Dad?
- It's okay.
1064
01:30:12,257 --> 01:30:15,693
Control Booth to Dreamer.
Control Booth to Dreamer. Are you there?
1065
01:30:15,994 --> 01:30:17,222
It's okay.
1066
01:30:46,158 --> 01:30:49,355
As you no doubt have heard,
there have been unsubstantiated rumors...
1067
01:30:49,528 --> 01:30:52,053
...of an alleged launch
from somewhere in Texas.
1068
01:30:53,765 --> 01:30:57,531
And for whatever reason, this seems to be
attributed to our old friend Mr. Farmer.
1069
01:30:57,703 --> 01:31:02,106
We here at the FAA categorically deny
the existence of any launch.
1070
01:31:02,274 --> 01:31:05,334
As far as we know,
Mr. Farmer is resting comfortably...
1071
01:31:05,511 --> 01:31:08,105
...probably watching
this press conference on television.
1072
01:31:08,280 --> 01:31:12,239
Once again, no launch has taken place.
1073
01:31:12,751 --> 01:31:14,844
Your daddy's gonna come home soon.
1074
01:31:17,656 --> 01:31:20,318
So Dad launched at 0922.
1075
01:31:20,692 --> 01:31:26,392
So right now he's been in orbit
for eight hours, 56 minutes and 15 seconds.
1076
01:31:26,565 --> 01:31:31,264
Distance traveled so far
is 152,042 miles.
1077
01:31:31,436 --> 01:31:33,233
Well, when will he come back?
1078
01:31:33,405 --> 01:31:37,341
He may do 12 or 13 orbits
before he re-enters the Earth's atmosphere.
1079
01:31:38,076 --> 01:31:40,271
And if you figure that, then it...
1080
01:31:42,881 --> 01:31:44,348
What?
1081
01:31:46,251 --> 01:31:49,015
Well, he could end up
running out of oxygen.
1082
01:32:10,509 --> 01:32:12,739
I still can't locate him, Mom.
1083
01:32:12,911 --> 01:32:14,776
Why don't you get some rest?
1084
01:32:15,347 --> 01:32:18,714
- I can't, Mom. Dad needs me.
- That's an order.
1085
01:32:21,820 --> 01:32:23,583
I'm proud of you.
1086
01:32:41,573 --> 01:32:43,734
Say something, Farmer.
1087
01:33:20,779 --> 01:33:22,474
Shepard.
1088
01:33:23,682 --> 01:33:25,547
Come in, Shepard.
1089
01:33:27,085 --> 01:33:28,712
Shepard.
1090
01:33:29,054 --> 01:33:31,454
Shepard! Can you hear me?
1091
01:33:35,093 --> 01:33:36,583
Shepard!
1092
01:33:41,466 --> 01:33:43,195
Come on.
1093
01:33:44,469 --> 01:33:46,164
Come on.
1094
01:34:39,458 --> 01:34:40,584
Hello? Hello?
1095
01:34:42,327 --> 01:34:44,693
This is the Astronaut Farmer.
1096
01:34:45,497 --> 01:34:47,465
- Come in, Mission Control.
- Dad, it's Shep!
1097
01:34:49,768 --> 01:34:51,463
Daddy! Daddy!
1098
01:34:52,838 --> 01:34:54,703
I think I'm gonna miss the back yard.
1099
01:34:54,873 --> 01:34:57,774
Don't worry. I'm setting up coordinates
for orbit nine to 10.
1100
01:34:57,943 --> 01:35:00,605
You don't wanna miss
this window for re-entry.
1101
01:35:00,779 --> 01:35:03,043
If readings are correct,
you're off by 20 percent.
1102
01:35:03,215 --> 01:35:06,013
- Preparing for re-entry.
- Re-entry is go.
1103
01:35:06,184 --> 01:35:09,051
Good luck.
We'll be watching for you, Dad.
1104
01:37:36,935 --> 01:37:38,869
Where can we take you?
1105
01:37:39,704 --> 01:37:41,194
Home.
1106
01:37:42,574 --> 01:37:44,804
- Hey, Dad.
- I made it! I made it!
1107
01:37:48,280 --> 01:37:49,269
Good job, son.
1108
01:37:51,816 --> 01:37:54,614
- I love you.
- My helmet.
1109
01:37:55,220 --> 01:37:56,346
I want that.
1110
01:37:58,123 --> 01:38:00,091
- And I want the rocket.
- I want that.
1111
01:38:00,258 --> 01:38:02,089
Let's go to a restaurant to have pizza.
1112
01:38:02,260 --> 01:38:05,024
Okay. We could go there too.
1113
01:38:37,929 --> 01:38:39,863
My next guest has an amazing story.
1114
01:38:40,031 --> 01:38:42,864
He's the only private citizen
ever to build his own rocket...
1115
01:38:43,034 --> 01:38:45,434
...orbit the Earth, and return safely.
1116
01:38:45,603 --> 01:38:47,628
As you know, he orbited nine times.
1117
01:38:47,806 --> 01:38:50,400
Please welcome Charlie Farmer.
Charlie, come on out here.
1118
01:38:53,478 --> 01:38:55,571
How are you, pal? Good to see you.
1119
01:38:59,784 --> 01:39:01,183
Have a seat.
1120
01:39:04,189 --> 01:39:05,417
Let me ask you something.
1121
01:39:05,590 --> 01:39:07,615
How does this go over
with the wife and kids?
1122
01:39:07,792 --> 01:39:10,226
Most guys I know can't
get a Harley out of the wife.
1123
01:39:10,395 --> 01:39:13,387
You know what I'm saying?
How do you get the rocket?
1124
01:39:13,565 --> 01:39:16,261
I know it might sound like baloney...
1125
01:39:16,434 --> 01:39:20,564
...but my wife and kids were real supportive
of the whole thing all the way around.
1126
01:39:20,739 --> 01:39:23,970
How do you know you were
physically up to this? It's been a while-
1127
01:39:24,142 --> 01:39:26,440
I did some tests on myself.
1128
01:39:26,611 --> 01:39:29,239
I know they have that big-
What is that? The cyclotron?
1129
01:39:29,414 --> 01:39:32,247
What do you do, run around a tree
with a rope? What do you do?
1130
01:39:32,417 --> 01:39:33,679
See what I'm saying?
1131
01:39:33,852 --> 01:39:38,186
I didn't really have the equipment
that NASA might require.
1132
01:39:38,356 --> 01:39:41,450
So I just had to make up
my own tests, but...
1133
01:39:41,626 --> 01:39:45,824
You think they will clamp down on people?
Will people be allowed to do this after you?
1134
01:39:45,997 --> 01:39:49,398
You know, I was fine
when I was building the rocket.
1135
01:39:49,567 --> 01:39:53,196
It's when I ordered the 10,000 pounds
of rocket fuel...
1136
01:39:53,371 --> 01:39:55,999
- ...that the FBI-
- Well, yeah, that'd do it.
1137
01:39:56,174 --> 01:39:59,473
- The FBI came around to say hello to me.
- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
1138
01:39:59,644 --> 01:40:02,772
I know all the government people,
the NASA people, were against you.
1139
01:40:03,048 --> 01:40:05,039
Once this looked like
it was gonna happen...
1140
01:40:05,216 --> 01:40:07,548
...were they pulling for you
or feeling resistance?
1141
01:40:07,719 --> 01:40:09,152
Well, I'll put it this way.
1142
01:40:09,320 --> 01:40:13,120
To be up there
and look back down here at us...
1143
01:40:13,291 --> 01:40:15,691
- ...it makes it all worth it.
- Well, you did it.
1144
01:40:15,860 --> 01:40:17,521
Godspeed to you, Charlie. Great job.
1145
01:40:17,695 --> 01:40:20,823
Charlie Farmer will be right back,
right after this.
