If you're going into the past, 170 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: how can you possibly return? You might be going to 171 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: a time when the technology does not yet, when the 172 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: planet is saved, I can modify my ship to relaunch 173 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: and return to the present. They programmed all the technology 174 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: into my space suit. Wait, you allowed them access to 175 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: your suit? Yes, stand by. That's not good. They killed 176 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: an entire planet, and now all they can think of 177 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: doing is killing one more. Mother. They explained everything to me. 178 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: I trust them completely. Everything made sense. I want to 179 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: make you proud, mother. Prompt ready for launch, Come home 180 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: quais are one? Simply aboord the launch. Stay inside the 181 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: capsule with the hatchet closed. I'm sure within an hour 182 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: or two Zeptron will have figured out a way and 183 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: allow my first mission to end in failure. I don't 184 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: want your life to end in failure. Quais are one? 185 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: Do you hear me? Abort the launch? Hi?

Try to reach the capsule. 187 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: If we can get access, we could reprogram everything while 188 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: she's in flight. How long will her journey take? She's 189 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: already there, already there, well, she never left Helios three. 190 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: She's there now.

How it has to do 193 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: with the protonic energy It would take me too long 194 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: to explain it. I recommend we just try to reach 195 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: her now, go ahead.

Should I be concerned about what 290 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: skip it? So? These are core supplies, backups of backups, 291 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 1: and when I'm looking for is usually placed in a 292 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: box in the deepest corner. So it's one of the 293 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 1: last boxes opened. And what is inside this secret box? 294 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,360 Speaker 1: If you whould be able to work my way all 295 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: the way acts should be? Yes, there it is right 296 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: where I told them to put it, all right here. 297 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:15,199 Speaker 1: I lift it out and you pull okay, sure, just 298 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 1: slide it over there. Okay? Can we open it? And 299 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 1: it won't hurt us to take a look. Now I'm 300 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: allowed to see it. It was put there so it 301 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: would eventually be discovered to open it to see what's inside. 302 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: The first case contains the instructions heavy instructions another record player. 303 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: M hmm, you must have gotten a deal, Grandma phone. 304 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 1: They were my idea. They run on the spring that 305 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 1: crank and instead of electric g amplification, that uses a diaphragm, 306 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: a dia am in case is no electricity. Yeah, clearly 307 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,880 Speaker 1: you didn't tune into this afternoon's broadcast. And here's what 308 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: I've been telling you about. Mm hmm mhmm Elmo l 309 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: m o E l m o E pronounced Elmo. Civil 310 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: Defense Audio Instruction Series disc l m o E A 311 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,479 Speaker 1: if you were listening to this disk, and what does 312 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 1: ELMO do when the l m O Elmo launches full 313 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: scale nuclear owner attack. This l m o E device 314 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: only by the highest rank sends every remaining the listric 315 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: missile in America is the nuclear arsenal and the one 316 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: way flight over the Iron Curtain then devastated by nuclear attack. 317 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 1: You see, l m o E. Project ELMO stands for 318 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: last Man on Earth. It is intended for use if 319 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: you believe you are either the highest ranking or perhaps 320 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: the only American alive at this moment. You see, the 321 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: United States is a government. Are you telling me that 322 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: it's a most important? That's genius of Project Elmo. There 323 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 1: isn't just one button there's one in the white huts. 324 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: Several desks of generals about two spread across the country, 325 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: so they'll be accessible to the better bid in the 326 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 1: event of an emergence. You know what, I'd rather we 327 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: didn't open that. It's okay, it's not gonna go off. Still, 328 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: I'd feel much more comfortable if you see that switch 329 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,400 Speaker 1: right over there. You have to open on an interval 330 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: dial in a code number. But once you do that, yeah, 331 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: that little switch would wipe out the Soviet You are, China, Japan, last, Europe, 332 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: pretty much every recording. But don't worry. Even if you 333 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 1: flip the switch, it wouldn't work. Hold on, hold on, 334 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 1: let me try to follow you on this. You have 335 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: two hundred missil anchers hidden embasements across the country. That's right, 336 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: don't work. They weren't worked now, but on the proper circumstances, 337 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: wipe that. The Eastern Humistry Operations l m o E. 338 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: The Last Man on Earth program was designed on two points. 339 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: One did every American should have the authority to launch 340 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:03,360 Speaker 1: a full scale retail editory strike if there is no 341 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 1: longer an armed forces chain of political command has been 342 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: a ematicated. This average American would have the right to 343 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: make that decision work. Until that's supposed to work, the 344 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 1: unit transmits a signal that is picked up by air. 345 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 1: Those signals are retransmitted up the existing chain of command. 346 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: There's military base. If they receive a launch code and 347 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: know that there's no attack coming, they just kill the 348 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: signal fells alarmed. But if that base has been hit, 349 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: then the signal automatically bounces to another military base and 350 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:54,479 Speaker 1: another Everyone has the opportunity to cancel. But if no 351 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: one cancels, if the network goes down and the signal 352 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: was allowed to travel all the way to the top, 353 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: then the missiles well fired. Eventually the missiles will find 354 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 1: of the US armed force. What's the second principle if 355 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: none of these offices is available, that the Russians don't 356 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 1: want to die any more than we do. So if 357 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 1: we get bombed in Colorado Springs and Cheyenne Mouth, it's 358 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: rather saying I'd say you're the acronym will be mutually 359 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 1: assured construction personal we prefer the term automatic mutual annihilation. 360 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 1: American submarines off the coast of Russia, armed with nuclear 361 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 1: warheads will be given the attack order and they will 362 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 1: be compelled by duty to carry out the command. What 363 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: I'm about to tell you is strictly confidential the E 364 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: l M. And I'm sharing this information with you. We 365 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: encourage you because I believe the moment can be industry 366 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: or in actions and how this information is sharing a 367 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: prayer and received. The fate of humanity, the average American 368 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 1: very well rest in your hands. Yes, what if I 369 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: told you wish to continue that America has not for 370 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: instructions on how to m What if I told you 371 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: that it was all an elaborate exercience designed to test 372 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: our readiness and expores any weaknesses in our defense. Wait? Wait, 373 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: cities have been destroyed. Have you seen it with your 374 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: own eyes? No, because it's too dangerous to A military 375 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: plane crashed into Baker's Ridge, a decommissioned B five heavy 376 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: which the Army was planning to scrap. I convinced them 377 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: to agree to a controlled crash landing in an unpopulated area. 378 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: The US Army, Army, Air Force, National Guard, Office of 379 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: Civil Offense, it goes all the way up. They're all 380 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: part of this conspiracy exercise, or if you want to 381 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: call it by its official name, OPAL. All contained within 382 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 1: the valley where the military has set up communications blockade, 383 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: the first of its kind. My idea, why are you 384 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 1: sharing these secrets with me? In three days, we're going 385 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: to sound the all clear. And since you've become such 386 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: an impressive communicator keeping the world calm during an apocalypse, 387 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: we would like for you to continue being the face 388 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: of civil defense and to continue carrying our messages preparedness, 389 00:32:52,560 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: defense and a means of retaliation. So this, this whole 390 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 1: thing is a big commercial for the Last Minute on 391 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: Earth program. Just think of us as another one of 392 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: your sponsors. So three days from now, wouldn't you sound 393 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: the all clear. I'll be the one to stand in 394 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: front of a camera and explain that it was all 395 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: an exercise. People will respond to the announcement more favorably 396 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: if it comes from you. I mean, the character you play, 397 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: an enterprising woman like you, should welcome the chance to 398 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: get out of Eden Valley. What's wrong with Eden Valley? 399 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: Nothing much. I'm sure there are benefits to being cut 400 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 1: off from the rest of the world, But once cable 401 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: comes over that mountain, New Canaan won't even be a 402 00:33:51,960 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: small pond anymore. Time for us to get out the 403 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: control Group is a production of iHeart Radio, written and 404 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:16,399 Speaker 1: directed by Brett Wood, recorded and mixed by Rob Gall, 405 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:28,280 Speaker 1: featuring Tess Malice Kincaid, Alexandra Vicken, Hannah Bierman, Minka Wiltz, 406 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: Mary Kraft, Tim Habigger and Keith Brooks.
