Marilyn Lovell is discussing the media request for putting a transmitter on the Lovell front lawn.

“Look,” says Henry, the Public Affairs Officer for NASA, “I , um, I realize how hard this is, Marilyn, but the whole world is caught up in it – it’s the biggest story since – ”

“No, Henry!” replies Marilyn. “Those people don’t put one piece of equipment on my lawn. If they have a problem with it, they can take it up with my husband. He’ll be home – – on Friday.”

Back in the Lunar Module, Lovell, Haise, and Swigert try to conserve their energy in the frozen cabin.
