• CAPCOM 2 : 13, we just got another request from the Flight Surgeon for you to get some sleep. Don't like these readings down here.

  Jim Lovell : [Tearing off his biomeds]  Let's see how he likes this. I am sick and tired of the entire western world knowing how my kidneys are functioning!

  Dr. Chuck : [after Lovell's heartrate flatlines]  Flight, we just lost Lovell!

  CAPCOM 2 : 13, Houston. Jim, we just had a bottoming out on your biomeds.

  Jim Lovell : I'm not wearing my biomeds.

  CAPCOM 2 : [after Gene Kranz shrugs it off]  Ok, Jim. Copy that.

  [Jack and Fred now tear away their own biomeds] 

  Dr. Chuck : [after all three crew members flatline]  Flight, now I lost all three of them!

  Gene Kranz : It's just a little medical mutiny, Doc. I'm sure the boys are still with us. Let's cut them a little slack, ok?

• EECOM Gold : Gene, we have a situation brewing with the carbon dioxide.

  INCO Gold : We got a CO2 filter problem on the lunar module.

  EECOM Gold : Five filters on the LEM.

  INCO Gold : Which was meant for two guys for a day and a half. So I told the doc...

  Dr. Chuck : We're already up to 8 on the gauges. Anything over 15, and you get impaired judgment, blackouts, the beginnings of brain asphyxia.

  Gene Kranz : What about the scrubbers on the command module?

  INCO Gold : They take square cartridges.

  EECOM Gold : And the ones on the LEM are round.

  Gene Kranz : [pinching the bridge of his nose]  Tell me this isn't a government operation.

  EECOM Gold : This just isn't a contingency we've remotely looked at.

  Dr. Chuck : Those CO2 levels are gonna be getting toxic.

  Gene Kranz : Well, I suggest you gentlemen invent a way to put a square peg in a round hole. Rapidly.

• Dr. Chuck : Haise is running a temperature, and none of 'em have slept.

  Deke Slayton : I can't order these guys to go to sleep. Could you sleep up there?
