97 Seconds to Save Your Career (For All Mankind Season 2)
John Perkins: What can I do for you?
Margo Madison: I’m Margo Madison. I need to see Sergei Nikulov.
John Perkins: No one goes in, no one goes out. Those are my orders.
Margo Madison: I’m the director, Johnson Space Center.
John Perkins: I’m sure you are, honey, but you’re not getting in.
Margo Madison: What’s your name?
John Perkins: Sergeant John Perkins.
Margo Madison: Okay, Sergeant John Perkins, I know you have a job to do, but so do I. I’m gonna give you 15 seconds to get in touch with your superior officer, 12 seconds to explain the situation to him, 45 seconds for him to reach General Nelson Bradford and confirm I am who I say I am. Another 15 seconds for your boss to get back to you and ten for you to open this door. That puts you 97 seconds away from either a cold beer at the end of your shift or an open-ended transfer to Thule, Greenland. Your time starts now. Honey.

He should have placed his knee on her back and hand cuffed her.
B¡tch, I ain’t scared.
I would say no
0 to 3?
Don't comment unless you've watched the series "For All Mankind". It's about alternate timeline about space race. I don't want to give out more cause it starts with a bang. I highly recommend watching at least 1st episode. It will either catch your attention or not.
Send her to combat
All this just because he call her "Honey"? Dude….
Proper answer – Do I need to repeat what I just told you?
The Honey goes for a direct sanction im sure….
Not the first time an NCO leg shot someone who thought they were superior.
We are taught guard duty while in bootcamp, against drill instructors who we were scared shitless of. No bitch with a Karen cut is going to deter a Marine from those orders.
Zzzzzzz……
This is how the feminist want to rule the world. Pathetic. 🤦
Guess the gender of the Director of this episode…
That shit would not work 😂 why is Hollywood always pushing bs like this
"lady… if you knew the general… we'd know. And if we didn't, guess your making that call. Please step away from the door."
Make your calls lady and arrange to have your boss call my boss. I'll wait.
She's obviously not familiar with the 6th General Order.
Not his job to do your job
I have an idea: Take whoever wrote this bullshit scene, and put them through boot camp with the condition they're not allowed to quit or wash out…even if they suck at everything and fail every test,make them complete all the weeks of boot camp as recruits…then tell them imagine there's even more training after that just to be a full on Marine…and then there's more to become a Sergeant…more weeks of endless unmitigated hell ,with DIs screaming to your face when you haven't even got off the bus yet,from the moment you step on those yellow footprints until the last day of bootcamp…then ask them if they will risk breaking the chain of command or questioning standing general orders in any capacity…these people are so clueless, they think a Marine is a civilian wearing a fancy uniform, not a person who has been torn apart and rebuilt as a order obeying machine who has been rewired and conditioned to put chain of command over anything else,that's what all the years of drilling and yelling are for…
General orders:
"Walk my post from flank to flank,
and take no shit from any rank."
you can be as snarky as you want, he will be doing his job.
GTFOH ma'am!
Lol I'd laugh inside. Outside I'd advise her to make a call. Been to Thule, not so bad!
He'll never go to Thule for obeying his orders, now if he disobeyed, Thule is one of several places he'd never want go. (BTW, he'd never have called her "honey")
Yeah if you threaten me with my job. I'll smacking you in the face
Hollywood garbage to show some woman on a power trip would win. Chain of command doesn't work that way.
I don't like this version of Taskmaster, that task just seemed mean and alex looks wrong.
I would start counting the 97 seconds while standing there ,unmoved and then asking her "do you wanna try that again"
in the real world she would be shit out of luck. She better call that General herself.
You got 25 seconds before I shoot you
The name of the movie is ??????
I'm not your Honey 😂😂
"Honey"? Men what is wrong with you all?
I hate people like this i dont care what position ur in u dont gotta be such a smartass cause the guys just does his job
Basic Security Guard Course exam passed
A more believable scene would be "Hi Ms. Madison, my superior tells me to be expecting you."
When women think the world works with subjective standards and constantly changing protocols based on convenience, like their internal operating system
….yeaaaah….that's not how that works.
Lady, you have no authority over me to give me orders nor do you have any say in where I get stationed. So, you'll stay away from that door until you get the proper credentials to show me. Should have come better prepared
Bad writing. A Marine wouldn't refer to the lady as "honey" on duty. In reality she'd have to be mad that she was referred to as "ma'am."
Welcome to the world of equality it means you have to follow general orders to you don't get special consideration just cuz you wear a skirt.
If it was me I ain't moving my ass for a women with inferiority complex
He would not call her "honey".
I've always wanted to visit Greenland. LET'S GOOOOOOOOO.
As a former Marine it's still no unless you were previously briefed to me in the meeting before or unless someone with in my chain of command gives you the okay
