Gen. Renning:
Harpoon, I don't know if the President will make it to Andrews. All our military bases have been hit. Who's available to succeed?

Harpoon:
General, the vice-president and most of the Cabinet are in northwest Washington. We've been unable to contact. The only one we are sure of is the secretary of the interior; he was inspecting a wilderness preserve near Baton Rouge.

Renning:
And the FBI are out looking for him?

Harpoon:
And the Army, E-4's two hours from touchdown in Baton Rouge.

Renning:
[to Alice] Alice, you're reading our new target projections in your display?

Alice:
I got everything I need, sir.

Renning:

Alice:
Yes, sir.

Renning:
Well, I've done about all I can. You and Harpoon take it from here. Old buddy?

Alice:
Yeah, Clay?

Renning:
Happy Hunting!

[Alice looks at monitor showing the radar display showing SAC headquarters go to snow, indicating that it is destroyed]
