Thunderbirds Are Go!: The Movie

Scene 32 - Impact!

The SKR5 plummets through the Earth's atmosphere as the sky now reflects a darkish blue. Ned continues to panic frantically as he holds his plant watching his dashboards show him about to crash in the next thirteen minutes. The Glenn Field Controller reappears on his holographic monitor.

Controller:

SKR5 from Assembly Control, how is your situation?

Ned:

Terrifying! Gladys and I can't just sit here and wait for time to run out like this. In the next thirteen minutes, we will be blown to kingdom come.

Controller:

Colonel Casey has informed me that you have had to have been previously rescued by International Rescue. They will get you out, we guarantee it. They have nearly finished in depleting this alien source that is dragging you down.

Ned:

I've been close to death before. You think it's the end until you get saved at the last minute. I've been there and done that. But there's always a possibility I might not make it out next time.

Controller:

International Rescue never fail to save anyone!

The SKR5 approaches some clouds now, as we then cut to seeing the Thunderbirds continuing their attack against the energy field. It continues to shrink its thickness still. They still fire out lots of ammunition, and we see the faces of the International Rescue members, including Captain Taylor, MAX, and the Mechanic, working incredibly hard to concentrate and finish off the alien source. This then cuts to seeing the TVR19 in cloud cover as the nervous Fischler waits for time to run out. He still reads the manual and begins talking to himself.

Fischler:

Hmm. Now, I wonder what the next course for my career is to take. Deep-sea diving? Parachuting? Working in a hospital for animals? Something that will make people happy to acquire my services. Something people want. Yet something original. That hasn't been done before, or in a very long time at least... Hmmm... Got it! Turkish Baths! They haven't been around for some time. What an idea! Fischler old boy, you're a genius! Fischler's Turkish Bath. No, too basic, erm, Fischler's Friends and Baths. Maybe. Or perhaps... perhaps... Hmmm. I have time to think. I still have another eleven minutes by myself to figure up a good title.

The TVR19 continues diving down to its target. Meanwhile, Thunderbirds 2 and 3 closes in towards the energy field, more so than Thunderbirds 1 and Shadow.

John:

Be careful Alan.

Alan:

John, this is my ship! I know what I'm doing. That thing has been significantly reduced now. We can close in on the attack and finish it off.

John:

It could still be highly dangerous even now.

Alan:

Ah, you worry too much!

Thunderbird 3 closes in much more. We hear Scott on the radio.

Scott:

Alan, you're getting a little too close there.

Alan:

Scott, I can handle it.

An energy bolt strikes from the ray and hits both Thunderbirds 2 and 3! The instrumentation goes haywire. Both Alan and Virgil struggle to control their craft as they both go spinning wildly!

Virgil:

We've been hit! All instrumentation is unresponsive!

Alan:

Same with Thunderbird 3!

They then spin away into the far distance. Brains quickly examines what is happening at the base.

Jeff:

That wasn't a very smart thing of Alan to do. Virgil was just unlucky.

Brains:

So it seems that the energy field has become t-threatened and ret-taliated by striking those bolts.

Jeff:

Will they be ok?

Brains:

Well, they are relayed on a course from the Ma-Matter that has tampered with their c-controls. They are on course for the energy! Like the X-XKR5 and TVR19, they have now ten m-minutes before they are set to collide with the energy. It will create an even larger colossal amount of devastation than o-originally intended!

Virgil and Alan wrestle against their controls but fail. We see the two ships fling off into the sky. Certain doom was imminent...
