The Time Tunnel s01e06 Episode Script

Two American scientists are lost in the swirling maze of past and future ages during the first experiments on Americas greatest and most secret project- the Time Tunnel, Tony Newman and Doug Phillips now tumble helplessly toward a new, fantastic adventure somewhere along the infinite corridors of time, - Nice.
hospitable place.
- Whats that smell of sulfur? Theres ground tremors.
lightning.
sulfur in the air.
It all adds up to one thing.
A volcano.
and we could be standing right on top of it.
Tropical growth.
Were not far from the equator.
But where? Things are getting rough.
You know about volcanoes.
What are the chances of this one blowing? By the looks of things.
Id say they were 100% sure.
- Is there any way of knowing when? - Its impossible to say.
It could happen months from now.
or in the next 10 seconds.
- Thats not much help.
- I haventt got any information to go on.
I dont even know whether werre on a mainland.
an island or what.
Wherever we are.
its a long way from civilization.
Thats for sure.
Hold it! Put him down.
Do you understand that? Sounds like Malay.
America.
So.
from America? - You speak English? - Yes.
- How many others live here? - No one lives on this island anymore.
- What about them? - They came with me from Sumatra.
You were trying to kill that boy.
Why? To appease the fires.
there must be a human sacrifice.
But this you know since you are devils.
The earth trembles and spits fire.
Its because of you.
Now we shall make it stop.
The Time Tunnel.
Release them at once! What the blazes are you doing.
Karnosu? - Strangers.
Too-ahn! Devils from the sky.
- Devils.
my foot! Now.
listen.
if youre going back to this heathen superstition again - Ill skin you alive.
Do you understand? - Yes.
Too-ahn.
This volcanic activity has absolutely nothing to do with evil spirits.
Cant you get that through your head? - Yes.
Too-ahn.
- Then take your boys and go back to the camp.
Yes.
Too-ahn.
Ignorant.
superstitious devils.
Oh.
Im Holland.
Dr.
Everett Holland.
Who are you? - Im Dr.
Phillips.
- Imm Dr.
Newman.
- Medical or scholars? - Were scientists.
Good! I can use all the help I can get.
- Royal Society sent you out here.
eh? - No.
sir.
Were Americans.
American.
Well.
then youve no business here.
This is my project.
As a matter of fact.
were lost.
Werre not sure where we are.
Really? Then how the devil did you get here? Wheres your boat? - We dont have one.
- Oh.
I see.
Shipwrecked.
Well, Im not surprised, These are treacherous waters, But.
uh.
which wayd you come into Sunda Strait? - Sunda Strait? - Dont you even know that much? Look.
here.
to the southeast.
is Java.
And.
of course.
over to the north is Sumatra.
- What is this called? - This island? Its called Krakatoa.
Krakatoa? Of all the places in the world.
The greatest explosion in history.
and theyre sitting right on top of it.
- What was the date? - The early 1880s.
Im not certain.
Ann.
what time fix do you have? Sometime in the late summer.
Im trying to fix the exact time.
ominously familiar.
Jerry.
Research will have everything on it.
- Get me a complete report.
and hurry.
please.
- Yes.
sir.
Ann? Anything more definite? It looks like late August.
Im trying to pinpoint it.
Will an exact date mean anything to them? It will to Doug.
General.
He once had several papers published on volcanic activity.
Hell know the precise moment Krakatoa blew up.
Our base.
- How often do you get these ground tremors? - Oh.
intermittently.
Bloody nuisance.
but nothing much to bother about.
- How long have you been on Krakatoa.
Doctor? - Little over a week.
As you see.
were still not organized.
Doctor.
we have some questions to ask you.
They may sound strange.
but weve got to have the answers.
- I see.
Go ahead.
- What is todays date? Somewhere around the end of August.
isnt it? - And the year? - 1883.
of course.
- It checks.
- Listen.
are you fellas trying to pull my leg? No.
were dead serious.
Doctor.
- What day of the month is it? - Oh.
go on.
Get out of here.
Im busy.
- What is the date.
Doctor? - I dont know.
Look.
I havent got time for parlor games.
Look.
Doctor.
this is vital.
Have you any way of establishing the exact date? Well.
of course I have! But I havent got time to drop everything and look it up for you.
Listen.
gentlemen.
Ive been living and breathing this project ever since I first got word of that big explosion out here last May.
Dont you Yanks ever read the newspapers? - Last May.
- There was an explosion on Krakatoa in May of 1883.
It was the first sign of the catastrophe.
That explosion was the biggest thing this Earth of ours has ever experienced.
They tell me it was heard from as far off as Batavia.
Thats 100 miles from here.
Thats true.
It did happen.
But thatss only the beginning.
Yes.
but nothing much has been happening since we got here beyond a little earth shaking and thats a natural aftermath to a violent volcanic eruption.
Doctor.
we happen to know that Krakatoa is going to blow up.
This whole island will go.
It will be the biggest explosion on this planet in 3.
000 years.
Thats a pet theory of mine.
This is no theory.
Doctor.
Its fact.
Theory.
fact- Call it what you please.
Im here to prove to the Royal Society that the pressure is building up and that someday.
its going up with quite a big bang.
Not someday.
Doctor.
Now.
This month.
Perhaps in a matter of hours.
Oh.
no.
no.
no.
Your timings way off.
There will be an explosion.
but by my calculation.
itll take 20 or 30 years from now.
When I finish my work.
I may be able to narrow that down a bit but meanwhile.
I- Father,! Father,! Help,! Help! Father! - Thank you.
- Are you hurt? - Eve.
Are you all right? - Im all right.
Yes.
Father.
Im all right.
thanks to these gentlemen here.
And I do thank you for rescuing me.
These gentlemen are fellow scientists- Americans.
of all things.
This is my daughter.
Eve Holland.
and a darned good scientist in her own right.
Im Dr.
Phillips.
Itss a pleasure to meet you.
- How do you do? - Tony Newman.
Hello.
Um.
fellow scientists? How odd you should show up here.
It was quite by accident.
I can assure you.
Theyre shipwrecked.
Ha! They didntt even know they were on Krakatoa.
Oh.
really? Now heres a girl whodd be able to give you the answer to your question.
Mmm.
what question is that? They want to know the exact day of the month it is.
Oh.
well.
its August 24.
I think.
Or is it August 25? I dont know.
No.
no.
We must know exactly.
Dig out your journal and give them the exact date.
Shes been keeping a day-by-day record ever since we sailed from England.
- May we see your journal.
Miss Holland? - No.
you may not.
Ha! Well.
there you have your answer.
gentlemen.
Exactly what do you suspect us of.
Miss Holland? I think it most curious that.
uh.
two ambitious.
young scientists should just happen to appear on an uninhabited island at the very time that my father is about to carry out the most important research of his life.
Oh.
my dear.
Theyve explained their presence here.
- Theyre shipwrecked.
- And you accept that? Now they want to read all of our records.
We dont care about your records.
Miss Holland.
All we want is the date.
You dont have to show us the journal.
Just check on the date.
Thatss all werrre asking.
Oh.
settle it any way you please.
Youve wasted enough of my time.
Ivve got work to do.
Father.
dont you ever learn? Time after time.
youve made important scientific discoveries only to have someone come along at the last minute and grab up all the credit.
Credit! Good grief.
girl.
What do I care about credit? You should care about credit.
You could be famous by now.
Yet outside the Royal Society.
youre scarcely known.
That isnt fair.
and now yourre letting it happen again.
You really think these men are after our research? - Of course I do.
- Well.
I dont.
And Im sick of the whole business.
Go look up the date for them and leave me alone.
All right.
Father.
I only hope were not making a mistake.
Wheres Jerry with that research? We have no idea how much time is left.
Ann.
can you scan the volcano itself? I can try.
but we might lose our contact.
I doubt it.
Were getting a fairly strong response now.
Try it.
All right.
Ray? What do you think? Volcanoes arent my field.
but that looks dangerously close to eruption.
- Thats what I thought.
- Heress the research you needed on Krakatoa.
Here we are- the exact time.
Thats awfully close to the time fix wevve got here.
How close? Can you tell? No.
Not accurately.
Ray.
Im worried about losing Doug and Tony.
Can I switch back to them? All right.
Ann.
Go ahead.
All right.
gentlemen.
I have your information.
- What is it? - Its August 26.
Doctor.
do you have a map? Cant you see Imm working? We hate to bother you.
but we need a map.
You must have one around here somewhere.
I- I think theres one in the tent.
August 26.
How long do we have? Were better off than I thought.
Krakatoa didnt blow till midmorning.
August 27.
Weve got to find some safe spot for them.
- Is there enough time? - Barely.
if we leave now.
For where? The area of destruction must have been enormous.
Well.
it was.
Thats why I need this map.
Weve got to decide right now where itss safe to go.
If we only had precise information.
Its all right here- everything they need to know.
If only we had a way to get it to them.
What does it say.
sir? How bad was the explosion? More than 25 times as powerful as the biggest H-bomb ever built.
The noise was heard plainly at a distance of over 3.
000 miles.
Dust and debris were carried around the world two and a half times.
What chance have they got to escape a thing like that? Theres no time for them to get far enough away.
Well.
maybe there is.
Doug seems to think so.
According to this.
most of the casualties were as a result of the enormous tidal waves.
Ray.
you know.
we could check it out ourselves.
Ann could move our fix just far enough ahead to let us see the results.
And risk losing all contact? Shes right.
What good would it do? It could confirm our research.
tell us whether there really is a chance of survival and where.
If theres no other place close enough? Then were gonna have to take our biggest risk of all.
Were gonna have to try to move all those people through time.
Thats impossible.
sir.
We couldntt do it.
We may have to.
Ray.
what do you think? All right.
Ann.
move our fix ahead a bit.
Not too much.
Lets see what we can pick up.
Go ahead.
Ann.
Move it.
It may be our chance to save them.
All right.
Here it goes.
A tidal wave.
Must be right after the explosion.
Ann.
what are your spatial coordinates? Were looking northwest.
toward Krakatoa.
Look at the size of that wave.
How big was it? It was big enough to sink over 5.
000 ships and its heading right toward Java.
Do we still have a fix on Tony and Doug? Try it.
Java might be our best bet.
Okay.
Java it is.
Oh.
wait.
The fix slipped forward again.
Thats after the explosion.
farther inland on Java.
Its night.
What happened to your time fix? I dont know.
Itss supposed to be midday.
It was.
The sky was almost completely blacked out from the explosion.
Ray.
what were the casualties? How many people died there? Over 36.
000.
One of the greatest tragedies of all time and theyre heading right into it.
Dr.
Holland? Get out of here.
Im busy.
Weve got to get off this island within the hour.
- Who says so? - Its going to blow up.
Theres barely time for us to get to safety.
and your boats are the only way off the island.
Once and for all.
Krakatoa is not going to blow up for years.
Thats what Imm here to prove.
Youre wrong.
You see that lightning? Its a phenomena connected with violent volcanic eruptions.
Lightning is a phenomenon that has to do with thunderstorms.
and that is all.
Youve got to believe me.
We know what werre talking about.
Then get off the island! No ones stopping you.
Just leave me alone.
I want to work.
- Anything.
Ray? - A gold mine of facts.
They confirm the very things we saw in the image area.
- Can they reach a safe place if they start soon enough? - Not if they head forJava.
The higher elevations along the coast of Sumatra went untouched.
We have the information.
They dont.
Theyrre gonna be heading straight into a trap.
Excuse me.
What about trying the new isolation techniques weve been working on? Theres a lot of work to be done before werre ready for that.
I can help.
if youll let me use the RC-7 computer.
- All right.
Jerry.
Go ahead.
- Thank you.
sir.
- Miss Holland.
- Oh.
its you.
We cant get anywhere talking to your father.
I need your help.
I cant help you.
My father speaks for me.
Whats the matter? Are you afraid of him? No.
certainly not.
but I do respect him.
Im trying to save his life and yours! I think you know very well what youre trying to do.
My father says the tremors are growing weaker.
not stronger.
Dr.
Newman.
please.
This research is vital to my father.
I.
uh- I even have reason to believe he may be knighted for it.
And it means that much to you? Oh.
not the honors themselves.
but vindication for him.
Hes had so many disappointments.
and.
uh hes trusted so many people whovve then cheated him of his fame.
Now all at once theres a chance for everything to be made right.
Dont take that away from him.
How can I make you understand were not rivals of your fatherss? All we want is to get you off this island to a safe place.
And so were to give up everything.
huh- just all of our work- on your word that were in danger? Yes.
Im afraid thatss the way it is.
Im afraid you dontt know my father.
His work is the only important thing in his life.
Nothing else matters to him.
not even.
um well.
his safety.
My advice to you.
Dr.
Newman.
is to just forget about us.
Just go away and leave us alone.
- Howd you do? - I cantt make her believe me.
How bbbout you? - Like father.
like daughter.
- We cant stay on this island much longer.
I know.
Look.
weve given them every warning.
Why dont we think of ourselves for a change? There are two boats.
Well take one and get out of here while we can.
I guess thats all we can do now.
Maybe theyll come to their senses in time to get themselves off.
I sure hope so.
- Too-ahn! - Yes.
Karnosu.
What is it? I am worried.
Too-ahn.
The earth was very angry.
and now the sky.
Forget it.
Theres nothing to worry about yet.
There is bad trouble on Krakatoa.
All right.
If youre so scared.
blast it.
clear out! Take one of the canoes and go.
Just let me get on with my work.
I will not leave Krakatoa.
It is my home.
You left it fast enough last May when the big explosion came.
I am full of shame for that.
I had forgotten the teachings of my forefathers.
Are we back to this childish superstition again? The earth grows angry.
There must be a sacrifice to the fires.
Now.
listen.
Ive heard enough of that talk.
I warned you! But now I know the reason for Krakatoas wrath.
- Oh.
you do.
do you? - Yes.
The two strangers.
I saw them come from the sky.
Like magic they appeared.
Only devils can do that.
but we know well how to handle devils.
Listen to me.
Karnosu! If you do anything to those men Ill have your neck when we get back to civilization.
- Do you hear? - Yes.
Too-ahn.
I hear.
The skys getting darker.
Yeah.
it looks real bad.
Doug.
theres only one boat.
Who could have taken it? Karnosu? You know what this means.
dont you? We cant leave the Hollands stranded.
Werre gonna have to stay.
- Were right back where we started.
- Yeah.
Somethings very wrong with their timetable.
- I dont know what it is.
but itss wrong.
- I agree.
The eruption certainly doesnt look more than a few hours away.
Dr.
Swain.
Ive worked it out.
The details of your isolation theory.
- Look at these figures.
- Lets see.
Jerry.
Well.
what is it? Whats your theory? Risky.
certainly.
but it may be worth a try.
Jerry.
give General Kirk a quick rundown.
Well.
sir.
you see.
moving in time is all a matter of rapid acceleration.
That means concentrating a great deal of energy into an extremely small area.
All right.
Now.
whats your idea? The trouble has been trying to move both men simultaneously.
The energy is dissipated.
erratic.
Thats why wevve had no control over where they went.
The plan is to focus on one man and pour an enormous burst of energy through our transmitters.
It will work.
Im sure of it.
And the computer seems to verify it.
What about the danger of an overload? It could damage our controls.
- Yes.
I agree.
and theres something else.
- Whatss that.
sir? The danger of a feedback.
The power of the magnitude that you suggest could affect our whole complex.
Well.
how.
sir? Well.
well have to get more data to answer that question.
Jerry.
Ann.
this is in your department.
Will you check out the figures.
please.
and bring us a report? Itll take time.
Do we have it? - I wish I knew.
- Go ahead.
Ann.
Check them out.
- Yes.
sir.
- Jerry.
you take over the controls.
Yes.
sir.
Treacherous beggars.
Ha! Theyre like a lot of unruly children.
But it wasnt Karnosu who went off.
I was talking to him just now.
It doesnt matter who it was.
Look.
we cant strand you here.
and wevve got to get off this island! And were going to if we have to drag all of you off.
Now listen to me.
gentlemen.
If I prove to you that youre wrong.
will you please stop bothering me? Look.
Here are my records.
They prove that the tremors are getting weaker and weaker not stronger.
The next one will be weaker still till finally they disappear.
That points to just one fact- no immediate explosion.
Now.
will you please let me get back to my work? Its too late.
This is the big one.
I thought we had it that time.
Maybe it brought him to his senses.
Maybe.
So the shocks will grow noticeably weaker.
will they.
Doctor? Feel the ground.
Holland! Its getting hot! Youve known all along.
Your instruments must have recorded all of it.
Yes.
blast you.
I admit it.
I was lying.
The pressure is not diminishing.
Its increasing rapidly.
Much too rapidly.
Yes.
I knew it all along.
But I couldnt tell anyone else.
- Why not? - Dont be stupid.
Doctor.
Whod have stayed on this island if theydd known it was going to blow up? Does your daughter know? My daughter is a dedicated scientist.
Doctor.
- But dont you think thatss her decision? - Mind your own bloody business.
Just how much time do you figure before the explosion? Well.
I did think it would be a matter of weeks but now I think its days.
Hours.
Doctor.
Only hours.
We know when the explosion will come.
We know exactly.
Thats tomorrow morning.
Doctor.
How could you know the exact time? Its enough that we do know.
Well.
I dont believe you but still by your own admission.
we still have some time left.
havent we? A few hours only.
and its a long way to safety.
Whatever the risk.
Ive got to stay.
- Youre mad.
Doctor.
- Am I? Is it sane to leave this island when a few more hours will give me data that this part of the world is needing desperately? Ill tell your daughter.
She has a right to make her own decision.
You neednt bother.
Ill see that she gets off here in time.
What kind of scientists are you? Cant you see the importance of making measurements from a volcano within hours of its eruption? - What do you think.
Doug? - Its cutting it awfully thin.
Itll still give us enough time to get toJava.
All right.
Doctor.
but were leaving here first thing this afternoon.
Ive only a few hours and so much to do.
Somethings wrong.
Tony.
What? I cant understand this pressure buildup continuing this long.
- Are you certain about the August 27 date? - I am.
At the rate this ground temperatures building the eruptions got to come soon.
Then what could be wrong? I dont know.
But Im gonna have a good look at this journal.
No doubt about it.
Its going to blow higher than a kite! But then they were right.
Wed better leave the island immediately.
Leave? When we have an opportunity of making the most important observations ever recorded? Not a chance.
Eve.
youve got to help me with these readings.
But what about the eruption? Weve time enough to get away.
Not if the whole island is going to explode.
- Weve time.
I tell you! - Please.
letss not take the chance.
Will you stop whining and do as I tell you? I am not leaving this island and neither are you until I have the data I want! Father.
youre hurting me.
And I told them that you were a dedicated scientist, Go! Leave me.
No.
Father.
Wait.
Um.
Ill do whatever you say.
Did you discover anything.
Ann? Enough to worry me.
Well.
what is it? The isolation plan could work.
What about the power feedback? A distinct possibility.
even a probability.
How much damage would it do to our equipment? That isnt what concerns her.
General.
or me.
Whatever damage is done can be repaired.
We can accept that risk.
But this could be something else.
A power feedback could produce a time warp here in the Tunnel.
What effect would that have? Thats the point.
We dontt know.
We have no way of calculating.
In that case.
I veto the plan.
General.
theyll all be killed back there.
We still have some elbow room- In that time.
we should be able to come up with some less dangerous plan.
I think youre right.
Welll go on that assumption.
- Find anything? - I think so.
- Im almost afraid to check it out.
- What is it? Wait a minute.
I want to make absolutely certain.
The little fool.
This could cost all of us our lives.
Something wrong with her records? Her records are accurate.
but shes made one small mistake.
- What is it? - When they left England.
they were on Greenwich mean time.
- But they sailed west.
- West from England? Why would they do that? They were following the great earthquake belt that rims the Pacific.
They went down through the Straits of Magellan and west across the Pacific.
- They crossed the international dateline.
- Exactly.
And she forgot they lost a day.
This isnt August 26.
This is August 27.
The 27 th? And this morning.
Krakatoa blows up.
Its too late.
Theress not enough time to get away.
No.
We might have a fighting chance if we leave right now and head straight forJava.
Lets find Holland and tell him.
Come on.
Soon the ground will no longer shake.
and Krakatoa will no longer smoke.
Throw them to the fire! Theres no time left.
Theylll be killed.
Wevvve got to act now.
Ray.
theres only one thing to do.
Wevve got to risk your plan.
- Itll work.
I know it will.
- Ann.
what do you think? If we do nothing.
were condemning them to death.
I say itss worth any risk.
Very well then.
I dont know what this is going to do to us.
but welll see.
Ann.
which one can you get the best spatial focus on? Right now.
Tony.
All right.
Bring him back.
Yes.
sir.
The Tunnel.
Im back.
Doug! Doc! Doc! General! Im back! What? General? What is it? Doc.
Can you hear me? Can you move? Ann.
Can any of you move? Jerry! I dont understand whatss happened.
It doesnt make any sense.
A time warp.
Thats what it is- a time warp.
Thats why you cantt hear me.
isnttt it? Youre frozen here between two split seconds of time.
Will the controls work in a time warp? Oh.
they work! If I can just reverse them without changing the setting.
Doc Im going to send myself back.
Ive got to get bacKand help Doug, You can return us together.
Well be at time-space coordinates 176 and 320 plus one minute Krakatoa time.
All right.
Were all leaving Krakatoa now.
Find Holland and his daughter.
Tony.
- Well manage to get them all toJava somehow.
- No.
notJava.
Look at this.
Sumatra? The high ground just inland.
- Where the devil did you get this? - Ill tell you later.
Ill find the Hollands.
Come on.
I know it isnt possible.
but Tony had to be here.
Theress the note he left.
And our research is gone.
He must have taken it with him.
- Ray.
how can you explain it? - The time warp.
obviously.
Tony came back with such great acceleration he was able to do all these things in between two beats of a microsecond of time.
He was here.
and we couldnt even see him? Thats about the size of it.
- And he went back- deliberately went back.
- He had to.
Ann.
to save Doug.
Can we let them know somehow that we got the message? Theyll know that when we switch them.
I mean now.
so theyll be certain.
What bbout voice contact? It hasnt worked for us yet.
We got a good fix.
Maybe it will this time.
Patch me in.
Im gonna try.
All right.
Ann? Come on.
Were leaving the island.
No.
my father ordered me to stay here.
Well.
Im ordering you to leave.
Where is your father? - Answer me! - Tony, Tony, can you hear me? General? - Who are you? - Travelers in time.
That voice comes from nearly a hundred years in the future.
Thats how we know about Krakatoa and when it blew up.
Itss all history to us.
Oh.
no.
It isnt true.
It couldntt be.
General! I hear you.
Can you read me? Affirmative.
We got the note you left for the time-space coordinates.
- Will you both be there? - Well be there.
Will you be able to switch us? General! Theyve lost contact.
Thats the first voice contact wevve had.
That voice- it came from the future? Yes.
Now do you believe me? Ill take you to my father.
Father,! Father, I need to talK to you, Yes.
I know.
I heard.
I heard! We leave Krakatoa at once.
What happened? Wheres the other canoe? It was stolen by one of the natives.
- But there are too many of us for one boat.
- Doug.
Theres room for them without us.
Ivve made arrangements with the Time Tunnel to get us off.
- How? - Ill tell you later.
Letss get them aboard.
- Are you coming with us? - No.
- Youre not leaving? - There are too many of us.
Wedd swamp the canoe.
- Whats going to happen to you? - Welll get off.
Youllll just have to believe me.
Good-bye.
Dr.
Phillips.
Thank you.
- Bye.
- Good-bye.
- Take these and head straight for the coast of Sumatra.
- Thank you.
The safe areas are outlined in those papers.
- Follow the directions.
- Good luck.
Thank you.
Thank you.
both of you.
Lets get to the coordinates.
Theyrre about to switch us.
Timing is vital now.
Stand by for the order to switch.
Ready and counting.
Seven.
six.
five.
four.
three.
two.
one.
Now! Whats wrong? Were getting interference.
Itss affected our power output.
- Why? Whats doing it? - I was afraid of that.
The forces are building in the volcano and affecting our instrumentation.
Well have to make adjustments to compensate.
- How do we get them back now? - Well.
we dont.
General.
