Quotes
Pierre D'Albert: [after finding out that they're on an island that's the target of an h-bomb test] We cannot die like this. We've got to get away. Somehow. We've got to.
Stuart Bailey: Still a long way from daybreak. We've got a signal fire. While waiting for the search planes, maybe we can figure something out.
Dave Connell: Look, there. I just spotted it in the sun's glare. Is that another island? It's even smaller than this one. It must be a good ten miles or so away.
Stuart Bailey: Maybe we could float a raft, or swim there with our life jackets.
Pierre D'Albert: Not a chance. Even if we could get to it... Don't you remember the pictures of the first h-bomb did to another island? It wiped it off the face of the Pacific. This one's going to be... I don't know how many times bigger. The blast will envelop everything for miles and miles around.
Dave Connell: Stu, we've got to do something.
Stuart Bailey: That navy landing craft, maybe we can get it afloat with levers and rollers... the tools in the barracks.
Pierre D'Albert: Today's Monday. When was the bomb test set for? Remember?
Stuart Bailey: I just can't recall. It was one day this week. I didn't know when I read the story, I'd be so intimately involved. But I'm sure they called it off when our plane crashed. And even if they didn't, the plane carrying the bomb'll see our signal fire.
Pierre D'Albert: From 40,000 feet high? No one's going to see a smoke signal from eight miles up. And do you know where they're looking for us? A thousand miles away for all we know.
