Situation Report (from the debriefing)
(Continued) Auto Destruction in 2:44 All three teams made haste to the airlock where the gondola met the building. This section of the building hadn't been used in a very long while - since the 1940s from what Santa said. Lt. Vixen pressed his shoulder against the exterior door and tried to push it open, but it wouldn't budge. It was rusted shut. Donder, Comet and Blitzen moved in and assisted, as well, but it was still rusted too tightly shut. Santa: Boys, let the big elf give it a try. The reindeer stepped out of the way and Santa, after hitching up his pants a bit, let fly a side kick that even Jackie Chan would be proud of. The doors not only flew opened, but took the door frame out, too. Santa: You little guys will never learn - there is no substitute for mass. Prancer: (with a chuckle) Said like somebody who rides in the sled, not somebody who pulls it. Santa: (smiling back): But there are nine of you..... Rudolph and Vixen had moved out onto the platform as soon as the door was open. Vixen: Oh, deer. Look at this - this cable is really old. Rudolph: Do you think it will hold 'em? Santa, the Misses, Prancer and Dancer? Vixen: I don't know. Look how frayed and brittle it is? Plus we don't have any other gondola. There is no way they can just go hand over hand. We need to put them in something. Rudolph: I got an idea. Comet - front and center. Comet came running and I whispered into his ear. He smiled at me. Comet: Right away. (then he flew off the platform, around the building and out of sight). Rudolph: (into walkie talkie) - Base - how much time.
