28 Hours / Wherever We Are [Spanish translation]

[Diane (spoken)]

When you include the original flight,

we were on the plane for probably

twelve... thirteen hours.

[Kevin T (spoken)]

We were on there fifteen hours.

[Kevin J (spoken)]

Twenty hours.

[Bob (spoken)]

Twenty-eight hours.

We were on the plane for over an entire day.

[Company]

Twenty-eight hours.

Over an entire day.

There was one aisle in the middle.

Everyone knew every inch of that plane.

[Passenger #11 (spoken)]

We were allowed out of our seats,

but not off the plane.

[Kevin T (spoken)]

You never think about it,

but airplane doors are twenty feet in the air.

[Kevin J (spoken)]

And even if you survived the jump,

they probably would've shot you.

[Passenger #3 (spoken)]]

You could go up to first class.

You could stretch in the aisles.

[Passenger #7 (spoken)]

It had three seats on each side.

There was only one aisle in the middle.

[Bob (spoken)]

Everyone knew every inch of that plane.

[Passenger #4 (spoken)]

Our flight was full.

There were children sleeping on the floor.

[Passenger #2 (spoken)]

We had no way to get information.

[Nick (spoken)]

This is before most people had mobile phones

and only a couple people got through.

[Passenger #8 (spoken)]

Hello?

[Passenger #7 (spoken)]

Mom?

[Passenger #5 (spoken)]

Bonjour.

[Passenger #2 (spoken)]

Operator?

[Beverley]

Tom? Oh, thank God.

I finally got through.

I borrowed a passenger's phone.

How are you? Are the kids okay?

No, I'm fine, Tom, I'm fine.

Safe and sound on the ground

here, in Newfoundland.

We don't know much,

except for the BBC.

Listen, I can't talk long.

Can you do something for me?

[Passenger #8 (spoken)]

I'm okay.

[Passenger #7 (spoken)]

I'm fine.

[Passenger #5 (spoken)]

Oui, bien.

[Passenger #2 (spoken)]

Pick up!

[Beverley]

Tell the kids I'm alright.

Take them in to the kitchen.

And show them the map

that we used to pins in

for each destination

that we flew together.

Tell them I'm fine.

Put a pin here in Gander.

[Passenger #12 (spoken)]

On our plane, someone has a cell phone.

[Passenger #10 (spoken)]

But then the battery dies.

[Passenger #9 (spoken)]

There are phones in the backs of the seats.

[Passenger #2 (spoken)]

But they don't work.

[Passenger #4 (spoken)]

Half the passengers on our plane don't speak English.

[Passenger #11 (spoken)]

Even if we knew what was happening,

we don't speak their language.

[Passenger #10 (spoken)]

On our plane, we ask the flight attendants.

[Flight attendant (spoken)]

But the captain says not to say too much.

And that's when rumors start flying.

[Passenger #5 (spoken)]

There was an accident.

[Passenger #12 (spoken)]

An accident?

[Passenger #9 (spoken)]

The US airspace is closed.

[Passenger #8 (spoken)]

For the first time in history.

[Passenger #11 (spoken)]

Why won't she tell us what's happening?

[Passenger #9 (spoken)]

A helicopter crashed in Pennsylvania.

[Passenger #5 (spoken)]

A helicopter crashed into a building.

[Passenger #10 (spoken)]

A building?

[Passenger #8 (spoken)]

The White House!

[Passenger #7 (spoken)]

The White House was bombed.

[Flight attendant (spoken)]

I need you to calm dow, ma'am!

Everyone calm down!

[Passenger #9 (spoken)]

We need to do something.

[Passenger #4 (spoken)]

Tell us what is going on!!

[Passenger #10 (spoken)]

It's World War 3! Oh my god, it's World War 3!

[Joey]

Whooo!

Meanwhile on our plane,

we didn't have a clue.

We were all going insane because

[Company]

There wasn't squat to do!

[Joey]

Then the captain starts apologizing.

Says on behalf of the airline,

"I'm giving each and everyone some

[Company]

complimentary booze!"

Open the airplane doors,

wave at all the cars.

Hello to whoever you are...

Wherever we are.

[Passenger #1 (spoken)]

The ground crew supplied whatever we need.

[Kevin J (spoken)]

Nicotine patches.

[Nick (spoken)]

Medication.

[Passenger #5 (spoken)]

Pampers.

[Kevin T, Kevin J, Joey, Bob & Party girls (spoken)]

Something to drink!

[Joey]

So the flight attendants brought out

all the mini bottles of liquor

and delivered them to everyone.

[Company]

Soon everyone got friendlier!

[Joey]

I took a couple of pictures of the view

there with my camera.

We didn't know where we were

[Company]

But we knew that we were hammered!

Open the airplane doors,

wave at all the locals.

Surely there's something better to do than park.

Wherever we are.

[Kevin T (spoken)]

We'd been sitting there for fourteen hours

when we pull out the Grey Goose.

[Kevin J (spoken)]

Kevin and I were kind of hiding it because,

well...

[Kevin T (spoken)]

Because we didn't want to share it.

Anyway, this woman,

this hot mess behind us,

kept completely freaking out.

[Delores (spoken)]

I don't understand why they can't let us off.

I mean, just to stretch our legs, I mean really?

I need to get some air!

Oh my god! I need to get off this plane!

[Kevin T (spoken)]

And my boyfriend Kevin

-we're both named Kevin.

It was cute for a while.

Anyway, Kevin was not dealing with it well.

[Kevin J (spoken)]

I'm going to kill her.

[Delores (spoken)]

Excuse me? I would like to get off the plane.

I am clautrophobic!

[Kevin J (spoken)]

Excuse me! Would you like some Xanax?

Because you are freaking out,

and it is freaking me out

and we are all freaking the fuck out!!!

[Company]

Open the airplane doors!

Let a little air in here,

'cause I could use a shower or a bar

(or a bar!)

Open the airplane doors!

Look at all the planes out there.

There must be a convention,

it's bizarre.

Wherever we are

Twenty-eight hours, twenty-eight hours,

out of the windows.

Twenty-eight hours, twenty-eight hours,

nothing but darkness.

Twenty-eight hours, twenty-eight hours,

darkness and headlights.

Twenty-eight hours, twenty-eight hours,

nothing to see.

[Hannah (spoken)]

The flight attendants keep telling us nothing's wrong,

but I've got kids and I've got grandkids...

I know when someone's hiding something.

And when parents need their kids

to stop asking questions,

they start playing movies.

[Flight attendant (spoken)]

We ran through every movie we had:

Legally blonde, Doctor Dolittle 2 and...

Titanic.

[Delores]

Near...

Far...

Wherever you-

[Company]

Nothing to do, nothing to see.

Thank God we stopped at the duty free.

Wherever we are.

[Nick (spoken)]

Do you mind if I sit here?

I need to get some work done

and there's some drunk people

at the back of the plane

singing at the top of their lungs.

[Diane (spoken)]

No... of course. I'm Diane.

[Nick (spoken)]

Nick. How are you doing?

[Diane (spoken)]

I'm worried about someone.

He was flying today.

I just wish there was some way

to tell him where I am.

[Nick (spoken)]

Newfoundland!

Oh, no. You know that.

You just can't tell him. Right.

I'm hoping you're one of those people

who laughs when English people

say awkward things.

[Diane (spoken)]

I just wish we knew what was happening.

[Actor #2 (spoken)]

What's happening?

[Actor #5 (spoken)]

What's happening?

[Diane & Nick]

Somewhere in between

[Diane]

Your life

[Nick]

And your work

[Company]

When the world may be falling apart

[Nick & Diane]

And you think

[Diane]

I'm alone

[Nick]

I'm alone

[Nick & Diane]

And I'm so damn helpless.

[Kevin T, Kevin J, Joey & Drunk passengers]

There's nothing left to do but drink.

[Party girls]

We open the airplane doors,

flash all the cars.

Whoo! I've never done that before.

[Kevin T, Kevin J, Joey & Drunk passengers]

Twenty-eight hours gone over an entire day.

Running out of things to say

and wondering if there's someone

[Company]

Going to clue us in.

Tell us all what's happening

because the sun is setting

and we're sitting in the dark

wherever we are.

[Bob (spoken)]

Later that night, I'm up in the cockpit

with some of the other passengers

when the pilot puts the radio on

over the intercom

and the whole plane goes silent

when the President gives his speech.

[President Bush (spoken)]

I ask the American people to join me

in saying a thanks for all the folks who have been

fighting hard to rescue our fellow citizens

and to join me in saying a prayer

for the victims and their families.

The resolve of our great nation is being tested.

But make no mistake: we will show the world

that we will pass this test. God bless.

[Beverley]

You got through to the airline.

Tom, I'm okay. Tell me what's happening out there.

How bad is it? Tell me everything.

Tom, who was in the air?

No. No, I wouldn't have known them.

No. No one on that airline

[Beverley (spoken)]

Charles...

Are you sure?

[Beverley]

No, I'm fine, Tom.

I'm fine.
