Absence of activity in the Pacific
suggests that this is just an exercise.
Suppose this is a move against NATO
I have some very sensitive information.
It must not leave this room.
Before sailing, Ramius sent a letter
to Admiral Yuri Padorin.
He's chairman of
the Red Fleet Northern Directorate.

THE THIRD DAY
SUNDAY, 5 DECEMBER
Ramius smiled. "Be at ease, Comrade. I can get from the wardroom to control in twenty seconds, as you know, and Comrade Melekhin can get to his precious reactor just as fast. Sooner or later our young officers must learn to function on their own. I prefer that they learn sooner. I want you to keep an eye on them. I know that they all have the knowledge to do their duties. I want to know if they have the temperament. If Borodin or I watch over them, they will not act normally. And in any case, this is a medical judgment, no?"
"Ah, you wish me to observe how they react to their responsibilities."
"Without the pressure of being observed by a senior line officer," Ramius confirmed. "One must give young officers room to grow--but not too much. If you observe something that you question, you will inform me at once. There should be no problems. We are in open sea, there is no traffic about, and the reactor is running at a fraction of its total power. The first test for young officers ought to be an easy one.

Baltar: Prove it. If you're a Cylon, prove it to me right now.
Six: I don't have to. You know I'm telling the truth.
Baltar: See, stating something as the truth doesn't necessarily make it so, because the truth of the matter is, I don't believe a word of it.
Six: You believe me, because deep down you've always known there was something different about me. Something that didn't quite add up in the usual way. And you believe me because it flatters your ego

I heard something in the background,
too, and I managed to get it on tape.
I washed it through the computer
and managed to isolate this sound.
The computer identified it
as magma displacement.
The SAPS software was originally
written to look for seismic events.
When it gets confused,
it runs home to momma.
- I'm not following you.
- I'm sorry.
Listen to it at ten times speed.
That's got to be man-made.
The first contact was at 09:15
and the bearing was 269.
At 09:30, it was here.
At 11 and 11:15, it was here and here.
Russian subs have been reported
running Reykjanes Ridge at high speed.
- They had hyper-accurate maps.
- Yeah, Red Route One.
The front door to those canyons
was a location called Thor's Twins.
Look...
Right into Red Route One.
You may think I'm crazy, but I'll bet
we found some new Russian sub.
It's now headed for the Iceland coats.
A$40 million computer tells you
you're chasing an earthquake. -
- but you don't believe it. And you
come up with this on your own.
- Yes, sir.

- It might be that simple.
Things might be simple at CIA
But in the middle of the North Atlantic
they get a bit more complex
- Smoke?
- No, thank you.
And you'd need more
than a few days' inspections.
In order to be any value,
you'd have to tear it apart.
- Then we have to keep it.
- What will you do with the crew?
They'd know we got the boat.
- Or do you plan to eliminate them
- We're not at war, sir.
So we have to do this in such a way
that they think we don't have the boat.
They'll go back
and report that we don't have it.
Otherwise this whole business
is just academic, right?
Yes, I see your point.

- This is unbelievable.
The Kirov, the Kiev, the Minsk.
- Their whole fleet.
- That's right.
- Where are we going?
- Briefing for Jeffrey Pelt.
The President's Security Advisor.
Most of the Joint Chiefs will be there.
- Who is giving the briefing?
- You are.

THE TENTH DAY
SUNDAY, 12 DECEMBER
"His name's Albert Jameson. We call him Jamie. He's twenty-nine, graduated Harvard third in his class, and he's been with us ever since. He's board-certified in internal medicine and virology. He's as good as they come." Tait suddenly realized how uncomfortable he was dealing with the Russians. His education and years of naval service taught him that these men were the enemy. That didn't matter. Years before he had sworn an oath to treat patients without regard to outside considerations. Would they believe or did they think he'd let their man die because he was a Russian? "Gentlemen, I want you to understand this: we're giving your man the very best care we can. We're not holding anything back. If there's a way to give him back to you alive, we'll find it. But I can't make any promises."
The Soviets could see that. While waiting for instructions from Moscow, Petchkin had checked up on Tait and found him to be, though a religious fanatic, an efficient and honorable physician, one of the best in government service.
"Has he said anything?" Petchkin asked, casually.
"Not since I've been here. Jamie said that right after they started warming him up he was semiconscious and babbled for a few minutes. We taped it, of course, and had a Russian-speaking officer listen to it. Something about a girl with brown eyes, didn't make any sense. Probably his sweetheart--he's a good-looking kid, he probably has a girl at home. It was totally incoherent, though. A patient in his condition has no idea what's going on."
"Can we listen to the tape?" Petchkin said.
"Certainly. I'll have it sent up."
Jameson came around the corner. "Done. A gram of keflin every six hours. Hope it works."
"How about his hands and feet?" Smirnov asked. The captain knew something about frostbite.
"We're not even bothering about that," Jameson answered. "We have cotton around the digits to prevent maceration. If he survives the next few days, we'll get blebs and maybe have some tissue loss, but that's the least of our problems. You guys know what his name is?" Petchkin's head snapped around. "He wasn't wearing any dogtags when he arrived. His clothes didn't have the ship's name. No wallet, no identification, not even any coins in the pockets. It doesn't matter very much for his initial treatment, but I'd feel better if you could pull his medical records. It would be good to know if he has any allergies or underlying medical conditions. We don't want him to go into shock from an allergic reaction to drug treatment."
