Scott sat at Mobile Control, coordinating the movements of the others in the field. He shook his head.

"I'm beginning to wish we'd brought along some of the fire equipment. The fires seem to be the biggest trouble right now."

"Do you always sit here and twiddle your thumbs?" Christopher asked.

Scott shot him a glare. "No. I sit here and coordinate the efforts of all our team members, including those in Thunderbird Five. I also liaison with the local rescue crews so that we don't get in each other's way. It's a heavy job. Sometimes, when necessary, I have to leave Mobile Control and operate one or the other of the auxiliaries or use Thunderbird One as part of the rescue, like I did in the Urals. And sometimes, I sit and stew because the only place for Thunderbird One and Mobile Control to sit is far away from the action. You have no idea how nerve-wracking that can be."

"Oh. Okay," Christopher said. Can't say that I'm looking forward to this part of the job! Flying that Bird will be great but sitting and being a crew boss? Not for me!

Virgil's voice came over the speaker. "Mole to Mobile Control."

"Mobile Control here," Scott said as he picked up his microphone. "Go ahead, Vee."

"The Mole is useless out here, Ess. There's nothing deep enough for it to tunnel to," Virgil said in disgust. "And I'm afraid it will cut power and water lines that need to be kept live."

"Not quite, Vee. There's an underground parking garage in sector 23/R that I'm told has trapped motorists in it. The Mole is needed there."

"F-A-B," Virgil replied, relieved. "I was afraid that we'd have to put this baby to bed without getting her dirty. Oh, and just to let you know, El is here with me, observing. Once we have the garage cleared, I'm taking her back to Two."

"F-A-B, Vee. You do that. Mobile Control out." Scott turned to Christopher. "See? Vee wouldn't have known where he was needed unless I was coordinating things."

"Uh-huh. I see," Christopher responded.

"Mobile Crane to Mobile Control," Gordon's voice now issued from the speakers.

"Mobile Control here. Go ahead."

"We've got someone in an apartment building over here that's refusing to leave. He's on an upper floor. The DOMO is holding the structure steady but can't hold it forever. I need a medic with a hypospray so we can sedate him and pull him out."

"F-A-B, Gee. I'll send Doc...." Scott began.

"Uh negative, Ess. Not Doc. Send En." Gordon's voice was firm.

"For what reason, Gee?" Scott asked, frowning.

"This guy won't leave... because he's got a portable television and he's watching the ice dance finals."
