Fred Haise (LMP): Well, it's time for a little grits again here, Vance.
02 04 17 01
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Understand. Some grits, huh? Chow. Bon apetit.
02 04 45 20
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Apollo 13, Houston.
02 04 45 25
Jim Lovell (CDR): Go ahead, Houston.
02 04 45 27
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Roger. Just expect that same CAUTION AND WARNING to come on again. And you want us to keep warning you of that thing?
02 04 45 43
Jim Lovell (CDR): Go ahead, Houston.
02 04 45 47
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Roger, Jim. Just expect a CAUTION AND WARNING to come on the same as it did about an hour ago.
02 04 46 04
Jim Lovell (CDR): Go ahead, Houston. We've lost …
02 04 46 08
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Roger. How are you reading me now, Jim?
02 04 46 33
Jim Lovell (CDR): Houston, Apollo 13.
02 04 46 36
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): 13, Houston. How do you read now?
02 04 46 41
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. Read you good now. Seems like we've had a little trouble with the COMM today.
02 04 46 46
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Yes. I guess it's partly because you are further out. We just wanted to tell you that you were going to get that CAUTION WARNING that you just got.
02 04 46 58
Jim Lovell (CDR): Right. We just got.
02 04 47 00
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): And I won't bother you with those calls anymore, unless you especially want them.
02 04 47 10
Jim Lovell (CDR): That's okay, Vance. You don't have to call us about that, unless it's something serious.
02 04 47 14
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Okay.
02 04 47 32
Fred Haise (LMP): We just ate a can of ham salad and that was an experience.
02 04 47 40
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Roger. Copy.
02 04 47 49
Fred Haise (LMP): It's really kind of like eating on the sly. Chasing it around.

Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Right. Copy.
02 04 48 18
Fred Haise (LMP): But good.

Unidentified crew member: …

Jim Lovell (CDR): Houston, Apollo 13.
02 05 19 40
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): 13, Houston. Go ahead.
02 05 19 45
Jim Lovell (CDR): Right, we're not doing anything right now, Vance, we're just getting curious, we could start the LM entry procedures, and get everything squared away, and then when the TV comes up at 55 hours, we can just use it for the TV, and we wouldn't be worrying about checking out the SHe tank pressures and everything like that.
02 05 20 07
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Okay, let us mull that one a minute here, and I'll get right back with you.
02 05 20 14
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay.
02 05 23 35
Jim Lovell (CDR): Also, Houston, Apollo 13. We'd like to move up the waste water dump and maybe the O₂ fuel cell purge a little bit early, if we could.
02 05 23 51
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Okay, stand by.
02 05 26 30
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Apollo 13, Houston.
02 05 26 35
Jim Lovell (CDR): Go ahead, Houston.
02 05 26 37
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Jim, you're clear to go on into the LM, and just advise though that the TV time is still fixed at 55 hours, and—so we'll be standing by to support your entry and we'll get back with you on a minute—in a minute on the O₂ fuel cell purge and the waste water dump.

02 05 26 59
Jim Lovell (CDR): Okay. Sounds good.
02 05 27 02
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): And also request your LM/CM DELTA-P which was on the flight plan for 53 hours. What did you vent it down to? Over.
02 05 27 16
Jim Lovell (CDR): We have 1.7 now. We vented it down to that figure.
02 05 27 20
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Okay, you vented down to 1.7, and what did it start at?
02 05 27 28
Jim Lovell (CDR): It was about 1.1, Vance.
02 05 27 31
Vance Brand (CAPCOM): Roger, copy.
02 05 34 32
Fred Haise (LMP): Houston, 13.
02 05 34 35
CapCom: Go ahead, 13.
02 05 34 40
Fred Haise (LMP): What do you read for suit pressure down there?
02 05 34 53
CapCom: We're reading 4.3, Fred.
02 05 34 59
Fred Haise (LMP): Okay.
02 05 38 58
Jim Lovell (CDR): Houston, 13.
02 05 39 03
CapCom: Go ahead, Apollo 13.
02 05 39 07
Jim Lovell (CDR): We'd like another confirmation, when we closed the tunnel vent valve back to LM/CM DELTA-P, we were reading about 1.7—1.75, and it slowly went up now to about—oh, I'd say a little less than 2.2. Seems to be holding there—Is there a lag in the gaging system?
02 05 39 33
CapCom: Okay. We'll—we'll ask that question. Stand by.
02 05 40 58
CapCom: Apollo 13, Houston.
02 05 42 07
CapCom: Apollo 13, Houston.
