Woah.

You got it? I got it.

Louis! He's in the water.

Are you OK? We have got to get him dry, right now. Pick him up. Before the sled gets-- The radio's on the sled. The what? The radio.

I bet this could get a lot worse before it gets any better. It'll probably hit us big and hard in about an hour. What do you think? I think you're right. Let's go ahead and set up camp here.

I'm sorry about the radio. Don't worry about it.

How long's this storm going to last?

We need to get out or here and getting moving.

We're not going to make the supply drop on time, are we? We got the best pilot in the business. He's not going to let us down. But we are in trouble, right? Yeah.

It's not a matter of us make it the bowl anymore, it's a matter of staying alive.

I don't care if I ever see the inside of that tent again. I know what you mean.

All right, here's the situation.

Four days ago we were right here. During the storm, the ice that we're on moved 36 miles southwest. Not only are we four days behind, we've got to make up those miles. Now if we push ourselves 40 miles a day, we can be at the drop zone in three days. 40 miles. Wait a minute, if we're just trying to save ourselves, why are we still going to the pole? Why don't we just head back to Eureka. Eureka? You take a look at the map. We're at least 300 miles away from Eureka, we'll never make it. But it's only 120 miles to the supply drop. Let's say we get there and the pilot's not looking for us anymore. We spent three days going in the wrong direction. Listen Cory, Josh is the best in the business. He's the only one who can get us out of this. We just got to trust that. Well, I don't. I trust me. Look, I know I can find Eureka. I don't have to trust in it finding me. I think we should just get out of here instead of sitting around here talking about it. That's exactly what we're supposed to do. Everything I've been taught about rescue procedure says one thing, you stay put until someone finds you. You know that! That would be fine, Lou, if we were on solid ground. But we're not! We're on a mass of moving ice. Where's he going to start looking for us? If we just stay here we conserve supplies, we conserve our energy, and we give Josh added time to find us, right? Lou, you're forgetting one thing. He's not looking for us here. Even if he was, we drift far enough every day to get out of his search pattern.

I don't know.

I know one thing. I believe Josh will find this. We stay and we wait. I'll tell you what Lou, you stay and wait and I'll send somebody back to pick up your frozen corpse.

Listen Cory, I promise you one thing. We will never make it on our own, we got to trust the pilot.

And Lou, it's pretty hard to find a moving target. We need to do everything we can in our own power to get within his search pattern. I say we ski as hard as we can towards where Josh is expecting us and trust in his abilities too. That was the plan from the beginning. That's what we agreed on.

What do you think?
