When it was pointed out that "The Hunt For" had been dropped in previous Q mentions of "Red October", we did a lot of research and ended up at the Red October steel plant in Russia. That left us knowing a lot about post war steel production if we ever get invited to a cocktail party. And yeah, some of what we turned up was pretty slimey.
But almost anywhere this crew looks, we end up needing hip boots – if not full on hazmat suits – so that steel plant was relatively light work.
Here's something that is even simpler: the reason "The Hunt For" was dropped is because the location of the sub was known.
Q knew the sub existed and where to find it.
The simplest answer that matches all the known conditions is most often the correct one.
Shit falls. Things break. Sometimes she smiles back.
Well, at least /some/ things have simple answers.
So, let me ask this troubling question: how many subs are there?
After we shot down a missile headed to Hawaii a few months back, a USN sub came back into the port of San Diego flying the Jolly Roger, indicating a successful hunt.
Was it announcing that it had shot down the missile, or that it had hunted down and sunk the sub which launched it?
If the sub, then Houston, we have a problem.
Here we have, a couple months later, another launch of a missile. Just how many subs are there "out there" in the control of people who want this world at war?
Follow the money. Who profits from a world at war?
It's a very long list, but somewhere on it is who controlled that missle at its moment of launch … and who STILL wants to start that global conflict and has 22 more chances loaded.
Will England be set up to attack Germany? Will Russia be the fall guy for Spain? Can we stop a missile leaving Long Beach for Mexico City?
Can Mexico?
Let's find who is giving the orders, do whatever must be done with them, and attempt to recall the subs to port if we can.
Or sink them if we must.
