The dim light of a single lamp casts long shadows across the war room. A weathered planisphere lies open, its surface a chaotic web of arrows and notes in red ink. USA leans over it, jaw tight, as UK, France, and USSR stand around the table. USA: "uhm...the situation is pretty bad." UK replies softly, "I know...but what are we supposed to do?" USSR scoffs, "If only you let me do as I want to..." France slams a hand on the map. "No! It's too dangerous!" The silence that follows hangs heavy. What do you think, you? We need another voice.
