I hug the cracked plaster frame to the entrance and tell Jack to hurry up and sell his extra...

The response is chaotic: workers are trapped in burning offices as rescue crews retreat from the radioactive zone. Panic ensues, and the heroism and derring-do that follow only remind us that the real time for lifesaving action ended long before...
