DR. STRANGELOVE
by
Stanley Kubrick
Terry Southern
Based on the novel "Red Alert" by
Peter George
FADE IN:
SLOW TRACK over dense cloud cover. Rocky peaks visible in the
distance.
NARRATOR
For more than a year, ominous rumors
have been privately circulating among
high level western leaders, that the
Soviet Union had been at work on what
was darkly hinted to be the ultimate
weapon, a doomsday device. Intelligence
sources traced the site of the top
secret Russian project to the
perpetually fog shrouded wasteland below
the arctic peaks of the Zokov islands.
What they were building, or why it
should be located in a such a remote and
desolate place, no one could say.
CUT TO:
ROLL CREDITS
Tracking shot of B-52 in mid-air refuel. Soundtrack lilts "Try
a Little Tenderness." Refueling nozzle gently breaks away from
recieving aircraft.
CUT TO:
INT. COMPUTER ROOM – BURPLESON AFB – NIGHT
A phone buzzes.
PETTY OFFICER
General Ripper, sir.
MANDRAKE
(to phone on his desk)
Group Captain Mandrake speaking...
Ripper sits at his desk, cigar smoke wafting up through the
light of his desk lamp.
RIPPER
(to phone)
This is General Ripper speaking.
MANDRAKE
Yes, sir.
RIPPER
You recognize my voice, Mandrake?
MANDRAKE
I do sir, why do you ask?
RIPPER
Why do you think I asked?
MANDRAKE
Well I don't know, sir. We spoke just a
few moments ago on the phone, didn't we?
RIPPER
You don't think I'd ask if you
recognized my voice unless it was pretty
damned important do you, Mandrake?
MANDRAKE
No, I don't, sir. No.
RIPPER
Alright, let's see if we stay on the
ball. Has the wing confirmed holding at
their failsafe points?
MANDRAKE
Yes, sir. The confirmations have all
just come in.
RIPPER
Very well, now, listen to me carefully.
The base is being put on condition red.
I want this flashed to all sections
immediately.
MANDRAKE
Condition red, sir. Yes. Jolly good
idea, keeps the men on their toes.
RIPPER
Group Captain, I'm afraid this is not a
exercise.
MANDRAKE
Not an exercise, sir?
RIPPER
I shouldn't tell you this, Mandrake, but
you're a good officer and you have a
right to know. It looks like we're in a
shooting war.
MANDRAKE
Oh, hell. Are the Russians involved sir?
RIPPER
Mandrake, that's all I've been told. It
just came in on the Red Phone. My orders
are for this base to be sealed tight,
and that's what I mean to do: seal it
tight. Now, I want you to transmit plan
R, R for Robert, to the wing. Plan R for
Robert.
MANDRAKE
Is it that bad sir?
RIPPER
It looks like it's pretty hairy.
MANDRAKE
Yes sir. Plan R for Robert, sir.
RIPPER
Now, last, and possibly most important,
I want all privately owned radios to be
immediately impounded.
MANDRAKE
Yes sir.
RIPPER
They might be used to issue instructions
to saboteurs. As I have previously
arranged, Air Police will have lists of
all owners and I want every single one
of them collected without exception.
MANDRAKE
Yes sir.
RIPPER
And after you've done that, report back
to me.
Ripper closes the blinds on wall of windows looking out at the
base. Outside, a SIREN SOUNDS.
CUT TO:
EXT. AIRBORNE B-52'S
With escorts.
NARRATOR
In order to guard against surprise
nuclear attack, America's Strategic Air
Command maintains a large force of B-52
bombers airborne 24 hours a day. Each B-
52 can deliver a nuclear bombload of 50
megatons, equal to 16 times the total
explosive force of all the bombs and
shells used by all the armies in World
War Two. Based in America, the Airborne
alert force is deployed from the Persian
Gulf to the Arctic Ocean, but they have
one geographical factor in common: they
are all two hours from their targets
inside Russia.
CUT TO:
INT. B-52
Machines spring to life as a transmission arrives.
GOLDIE
Major Kong, I know you're gonna think this
a crazy but I just got a message from base
over the CRM 114. It decodes as Wing
Attack plan R. R for Romeo.
KONG
Goldie, did you say Wing Attack, plan R?
GOLDIE
Yes Sir, I have.
KONG
Goldie, how many times have I told you
guys that I don't want no horsin' around
on the airplane?
GOLDIE
I'm not horsin' around, sir, that's how it
decodes.
KONG
Well I've been to one world fair a picnic
and a rodeo and that's the stupidest thing
I ever heard come over a set of earphones.
You sure you got today's code?
GOLDIE
Yes sir, it is.
KONG
Ah, there's just gotta be something wrong.
Wait just a second, I'm comin' back.
Kong examines the decoded message and the code book.
KONG
Maybe you better get a confirmation from
base.
GOLDIE
Yes sir.
BOMBARDIER
Major Kong, is it possible that this is
some kind of loyalty test. You know, give
the go code and then recall to see who
would actually go?
KONG
Ain't nobody ever got the go code yet. And
old Ripper wouldn't be giving us plan R
unless them Russkies had already clobbered
Washington and alot of other towns with a
sneak attack.
BOMBARDIER
Yes sir.
GOLDIE
Major Kong, message from base confirmed.
KONG
Well boys, I reckon this is it: nuclear
combat, toe to toe with the Russkies.
Kong climbs back into the cockpit. Soundtrack: Battle Hymn of
the Republic.
KONG
Now look boys, I ain't much of a hand at
makin' speeches. But I got a pretty fair
idea that something doggoned important's
going on back there. And I got a fair idea
of the kind of personal emotions that some
of you fella's may be thinking. Heck, I
reckon you wouldn't even be human beings
if you didn't have some pretty strong
personal feelings about nuclear combat.
But I want you to remember one thing, the
folks back home is a countin' on ya, and
by golly we ain't about to let 'em down.
Tell you somethin' else. This thing turns
out to be half as important is I figure it
just might be, I'd say that you're all in
line for some important promotions and
personal citations when this thing's over
with. That goes for every last one of you,
regardless of your race, color, or your
creed. Now, let's get this thing on the
hump. We got some flying to do.
CUT TO:
INT. GENERAL TURGIDSON'S STUDIO
Phone rings.
MISS SCOTT
(shouting)
Buck, should I get it?
TURGIDSON
(muffled)
Yeah. You have to.
MISS SCOTT
(to phone)
Hello? Oh, yes, General Turgidson is here,
but I'm afraid he can't come to the phone
at the moment. Well, this is his
secretary, Miss Scott.
(softly)
Freddie, how are you? Fine and you? Oh, we
were just catching up on some of the
General's paperwork. Well, look Freddie,
he's very tied up at the moment. I'm
afraid he can't come to the phone.
(listens)
Well, just a minute.
(shouts to Tuirgidson)
General Turgidson, a General Puntridge
calling.
TURGIDSON
Tell him to call back.
MISS SCOTT
(to phone)
Freddie, the General says could you call
back in a minute or two? Oh.
(shouting)
He says it can't wait.
TURGIDSON
Ah, for Pete... well... Find out what he
wants.
MISS SCOTT
Freddie, the thing is, the General is in
the powder room right now. Could you tell
me what it's about? Just a second...
(shouting)
Apparently they monitored a transmission
about eight minutes ago from Burpleson Air
Force Base.
(to phone)
Right. (shouting)
It was directed to the 843'rd bomb wing on
airborne alert.
(to phone)
Yeah. (shouting)
It decoded as Wing Attack, Plan R.
TURGIDSON
Um ah, tell him to call uh what's his
name. Base commander. Ripper. I have to
think of everything?
MISS SCOTT
(to phone)
The General suggests you call General
Ripper, the 843rd base commander. Oh.
(shouting)
All communications are dead.
TURGIDSON
Bull! Tell him to do it himself.
MISS SCOTT
Freddie, the General asks if you could
possibly try again yourself.
(listens)
I see. (shouting)
He says he's tried personally several
times, but everything is dead. Even the
normal phone lines are shut down.
Turgidson emerges from the bathroom, grumbling.
TURGIDSON
(to phone)
Fred. Buck. What's it look like? Yeah.
Waa... are you sure it's plan R? Huh.
What's cookin' on the threat board.?
Nothin? Nothin at all? Idon't like the
look of this, Fred. Alright, I tell you
what you better do, old buddy.
(slaps his belly)
You better give Elmo and Charlie a blast,
and bump everything up to condition red
and stand by the blower, I'll get back to
you. (hangs up)
MISS SCOTT
What's up?
TURGIDSON
Nothing. Nothing. Where's my shorts?
MISS SCOTT
On the floor. Where are you going?
TURGIDSON
No place. No... no place... I just thought
I might mosey over to the War room for a
few minutes. See what's doing over there.
MISS SCOTT
It's three o'clock in the morning.
TURGIDSON
(laughs)
The Air Force never sleeps.
MISS SCOTT
Buck, honey... I'm not sleepy either.
TURGIDSON
I know how it is, baby. Tell you what you
do. You just start your countdown, and old
Bucky'll be back here before you can
say... Blast Off!
CUT TO:
EXT. BURPLESON AFB – NIGHT
Ripper's voice booms over the PA. Ready soldiers stand
listening.
RIPPER
Your commie has no regard for human life,
not even his own. And for this reason,
men, I want to impress upon you the need
for extreme watchfulness. The enemy may
come individually, or he may come in
strength. He may even come in the uniform
of our own troops. But however he comes we
must stop him. We must not allow him to
gain entrance to this base. Now, I am
going to give you three simple rules.
First, trust no one, whatever his uniform
or rank, unless he is known to you
personally. Second, anyone or anything
that approaches within 200 yards of the
perimeter is to be fired upon. Third, if
in doubt, shoot first, and ask questions
afterwards. I would sooner accept a few
casualties through accident than lose the
entire base and its personnel through
carelessness. Any variation on these rules
must come from me personally. Now, men, in
conclusion, I would like to say that, in
the two years it has been my privilege to
be your commanding officer, I have always
expected the best from you, and you have
never given me anything less than that.
CUT TO:
INT. COMPUTER ROOM – INT. BURPLESON AFB
Mandrake, who has been closing up shop while listening to
Ripper's speech, discovers a radio inside a line printer and
switches it on. Soft jazz is playing.
RIPPER'S VOICE
Today, the nation is counting on us. We
are not going to let them down. Good luck
to you all.
CUT TO:
INT. AIRBORNE B-52
Soundtrack: Battle Hymn of the Republic.
AIRMAN
(to Kong)
Here's the attack profile, sir.
KONG
(announcing through headset intercom)
This is your attack profile: to insure
that the enemy cannot monitor voice
transmission or plant false transmission,
the CRM114 is to be switched into all the
receivercircuits. Emergency phase code
prefix is to be set on the dials of the
CRM. This'll block any transmission other
than those preceded by code prefix. Stand
by to set code prefix.
GOLDIE
Roger. Ready to set code prefix.
KONG
Set code prefix.
GOLDIE
(dials up letters)
OPE Code prefix set.
KONG
Lock code prefix.
GOLDIE
Code prefix locked.
KONG
Switch all receiver circuits to CRM
discriminators.
GOLDIE
All circuits switched to CRM
discriminators.
KONG
Check auto destruct circuits.
GOLDIE
Auto destruct circuits checked.
