See us? We're here. How does he do that? Reporter: Reporting live from Andrews Air Force Base just outside Washington, D.C... Yes, that's right, Tom, an amazing moment. We're reporting from Andrews Air Force Base... Now in light of our apparent inability to communicate with the visitors, Pentagon officials have retrofit this skylift helicopter with a type of visual communications device. Mr. President. Be seated. TV: This is not a military aircraft... Where are we now? They're just commencing liftoff. Reporter:...and refitted with these enormous light panels that are attached to the hull and onto the sides. Pilot: Echo One, Welcome Wagon is in the air. I repeat. Welcome Wagon is in the air. Ground Control: Roger, Welcome Wagon. Echo One right beside you. This is something I would never believe in my lifetime, that I would be in the White House. Look at this. If I knew I was going to meet the president, I would have worn a tie. I mean, look at me. I look like a schlemiel. You look fine, Pops. Oy, my God. David, I don't know how happy he's going to be to see you. That's right. I'm telling you, we're wasting time. He's not going to listen to me. We should go. Why wouldn't he listen? 'Cause last time I saw him, we, uh, we got into a fight. You walked in the room and punched him in the head. You punched the president? He wasn't the president then. I punched him, he fought back. We wrestled around. It was a fight. A fight that you started, because David thought that I was having an affair. With the president? Which, of course, I wasn't.

All right, gentlemen, we're on. General, it's NORAD. General Grey here. Al? All satellite, microwave, and ground communications with the cities are down. All systems go. We believe we're looking at a total loss. How about our boys? Where are they? ETA to target, four minutes.

CNS is running a story that we're covering up some type of nuclear testing experiment. Tell them to run with it if they want to embarrass themselves. NASA's been on my butt all morning. They want to know our position. Our official position is we have no official position. Connie, what is going on here? Come on, would I keep you out of the loop? - Yes, absolutely. - In a second. What? I can't hear you. At the moment, our satellites are somewhat unreliable. Isn't it possible that this thing may just pass us by? What if it doesn't "pass us by" ? Let's retarget some ICBMs to blow it outta the sky. And risk turning one dangerous falling object into many? We don't yet know enough about what we're dealing with to make any kind of intelligent judgments. Luckily, the press is making up their own story at this point. But that's not gonna keep. We may need to upgrade to Defcon Three. Absolutely. General, contact NORAD. You tell them we've upgraded to Defcon Three. That's not what the president said. That's a little premature. I don't think so. We have more than 50% of the armed forces out on weekend leave, not to mention the commanders and troops that are in town for the 4th ofJuly parade. Go ahead, Commander. Our intelligence tells us the object has settled into a stationary orbit. Well, that's good news. Uh, not really, sir. Part of it has broken off into nearly three dozen other pieces... smaller than the whole, sir, yet over 15 miles in width themselves.

You read my mind! Stay here. We got to get as far away from these things as we can. They let you out? You're damn right. They got bigger fish to fry now, believe you me. Come on, boy. We're leavin'...without you. We're going to live with Uncle Hector in Tucson. [Scoffs] Ha ha ha ha! Hector? Like hell you are. I'm still your father. No, you're not. You're just the man who married my mother. You're nothin' to me. Oh.

You don't mind? Well, I mean, uh... We'll have to let all my other girlfriends know that they can't come over, you know, and got to postpone a little freaky-deaky. There you go. There he goes, thinking you all that. But you are not as charming as you think you are, sir. Yes, I am. Them big ol' Dumbo ears. Well, look at you with them chicken legs. Baw-caw.

That's the advantage of being a fighter pilot. In the Gulf War, we knew what we had to do.
