Something wrong with the clip?

Now, in the meantime, we're gonna have a frozen command module up there. In a couple days, we're gonna have to power it up using nothing but the re-entry batteries.
GNC White:
That's never been tried before.
R.E.T.R.O. White:
Hell, we've never even simulated it before, Gene.
Gene Kranz:
Well, we're gonna have to figure it out. I want people in our simulators working re-entry scenarios. I want you guys to find every engineer who designed every switch, every circuit, every transistor, and every light bulb that's up there. Then I want you to talk to the guy on the assembly line who actually built the thing. Find out how to squeeze every amp out of both of these god damn machines.

Gene Kranz:
I want this mark all the way back to Earth with time to spare.

00:35 KEN Okay spacecraft control to computer
00:36 Glad you're here You know what's going on
00:39 Odyssey this is Houston We need you to power down...
00:08 Houston we're at stable one The ship is secure
00:37 GENE Let's think about things we can connect
00:09 You think it's too late for him to abort He still has...
00:12 Hey Marilyn Where's their broadcast
00:20 He wanted a quote from a flight director Who wanted a quote
00:25 What There's been an explosion
00:17 Gene l'm wondering what the Grumman guys think about...
00:18 FRED Oh Christ JACK What's up
00:25 Gene understand that we've never tried this before
00:07 Lf this doesn't work
00:34 Fred Haise was going back fo the moon on Apollo 1 8
00:12 We're gonna get that procedure to you as soon as we...
00:40 We sure could use the re entry procedure up here
00:04 Let's hope we don't have to do that again
00:18 FRED Mare Tranquillitatis
00:15 How are you feeling Freddo
