resort -- we'd like you to fly in there. Make a personal

GEN. YEAGER: You say he's got hold of communications.
What do you mean by that?
General Jameson spins his large computer monitor around
to face Gen. Yeager. The monitor shows a Google-style
surveillance satellite view of a section of Pennsylvania
belonging to Rockland Air Force Base, but there is a greenish
blurry spot as if a piece of land mass was missing.
GEN. JAMESON: Sorkin has wiped the entire base off our
radar, he’s deployed the Invisi-Map -- the whole damn air
base looks to have vanished from the face of the earth.
GEN. YEAGER: (studies a blur on a map, no air base is
visible) Damn, he’s disappeared all right -- At least we
know the system works... Nobody’s contacted anyone else
at the base?
GEN. JAMESON: They're not answering the telephone.
(He lifts the cellphone at his side.)
CELL PHONE RECEIVER: It's still ringing.
