PROBLEM: Fact1: alien orders robot to stop, Fact2: message be delivered to world 's leaders, Fact3: boy takes Klaatu on tour of city including visit to father 's grave in Arlington National Cemetery, Fact4: Bobby takes Klaatu to Barnhardt 's home, Fact5: Tom found in Klaatu 's room diamond

SOLUTION: When a flying saucer lands in Washington, D.C., the Army quickly surrounds it. A humanoid Michael Rennie emerges, announcing that he has come in peace. When he unexpectedly opens a small device, he is shot by a nervous soldier. A tall robot emerges from the saucer and quickly disintegrates the soldiers weapons. The alien orders the robot, Gort, to stop. He explains that the nowbroken device was a gift for the President which would have enabled him to study life on the other planets. The alien, Klaatu, is taken to Walter Reed Hospital. After surgery, he uses a salve to quickly heal his wound. Meanwhile, the Army is unable to enter the saucer; Gort stands outside, silent and unmoving. Klaatu tells the Presidents secretary, Mr. Harley Frank Conroy, that he has a message that must be delivered to all the worlds leaders simultaneously. Harley tells him that such a meeting in the current political climate is impossible. Klaatu suggests that he be allowed to go among humans to better understand their unreasoning suspicions and attitudes. Harley rejects the proposal, and Klaatu remains under guard. Klaatu escapes and lodges at a boarding house as Mr. Carpenter, the name on the dry cleaners tag on a suit he took. Among the residents are young widow Helen Benson Patricia Neal and her son Bobby Billy Gray. The next morning, Klaatu listens to the boarders speculate about the aliens motivations. While Helen and her boyfriend Tom Stevens Hugh Marlowe go out, Klaatu babysits Bobby. The boy takes Klaatu on a tour of the city, including a visit to his fathers grave in Arlington National Cemetery; Klaatu learns that most of those buried there were killed in wars. The two visit the Lincoln Memorial, and then the heavily guarded spaceship. Klaatu asks Bobby who the greatest living person is; Bobby suggests Professor Barnhardt Sam Jaffe. Bobby takes Klaatu to Barnhardts home, but the professor is absent. Klaatu adds an equation to a problem on Barnhardts blackboard and leaves his contact information with the suspicious housekeeper. That evening a government agent takes Klaatu to Barnhardt. Klaatu explains that the people of other planets have concerns now that humanity has developed rockets and a rudimentary form of atomic power. Klaatu declares that if his message is ignored, Earth will be eliminated. Barnhardt agrees to gather scientists from around the world at the saucer; he then suggests that Klaatu give a harmless demonstration of his power. Klaatu returns to his spaceship that night, unaware that Bobby has followed him. Bobby sees Gort render two soldiers unconscious and Klaatu enter the saucer. Bobby tells Helen and Tom what he saw, but they dont believe him until Tom takes a diamond he found in Klaatus room to a jeweler and learns it is unlike any other on Earth. Klaatu finds Helen at her workplace, and they take an empty service elevator, which stops precisely at noon. He has neutralized all electricity everywhere for 30 minutes, except for such things as hospitals and aircraft in flight. Klaatu reveals his true identity to Helen, then asks for her help. After Tom informs the authorities of his suspicions, Helen breaks up with him. She and Klaatu go to Barnhardts home. En route he tells her that should anything happen to him, she must say to Gort, Klaatu barada nikto. Their taxi is spotted and hemmed in; Klaatu makes a break for it and is shot dead. Helen quickly heads to the saucer. Gort kills two soldiers standing watch and advances on her. When Helen utters Klaatus words, the robot carries her into the spaceship, then leaves to retrieve Klaatus body. Gort brings Klaatu back to life, but he explains to Helen that his revival is only temporary. Klaatu addresses Barnhardts assembled scientists, informing them that he represents an interplanetary organization that created a police force of invincible robots like Gort. In matters of aggression, we have given them absolute power over us. Klaatu concludes, Your choice is simple: join us and live in peace, or pursue your present course and face obliteration. Klaatu and Gort reenter the spaceship and depart.

SOLUTION: New York City streetwalker Mae Carole Lombard is placed on a train by a policeman and told not to come back. However, she gets off, taking the cab of Jimmy Doyle Pat OBrien, who doesnt think much of women. She slips away without paying the fare. Her friend and fellow prostitute, Lil Mayo Methot, advises her to find honest work. The next day, Mae goes to the cab company to pay Jimmy. They start arguing, but they are attracted to each other. He gets her a job as a waitress. By coincidence, Gert Shirley Grey, another former prostitute who knows her, also works at the restaurant. Jimmy and Mae soon marry, but Mae doesnt tell her new husband about her past. After a honeymoon at Coney Island, the happy couple are met at Maes apartment by a policeman who mistakes Jimmy for Maes latest client. Jimmy shows him their marriage license to clear up the trouble, then leaves to think things over. He returns the next day, ready to try to make the marriage work. Jimmy has saved 420 of the 500 he needs to become a partner in Flannagans gas station. However, Gert begs Mae to lend her 200 for a doctor. Despite her misgivings, Mae gives it to her. The next day, she learns that Gert has lied to her. When Jimmy tells her that the gas station owner needs money and is willing to settle for what he already has, Mae begins searching desperately for Gert. Mae finally finds her and slaps her around until she promises to get her the money the next night. However, Gert has given the money to her boyfriend Toots Jack La Rue, who is also Lils pimp. When Gert tries to steal the 200 from his wallet, Toots catches her and accidentally kills her. He hides the body, then watches from hiding as Mae shows up, finds the money and leaves. The police arrest Mae for the crime because she left her bag behind in Gerts apartment. However, a distrusting Jimmy had been following Mae and knows a man was with Gert. He learns that it was Toots, but when he confronts him, Lil gives Toots an alibi. Jimmy goes to the district attorney to report what he knows. Lil convinces Toots to go to the district attorney to lodge a complaint against Jimmy. Lil reveals herself to be Maes true friend, admitting that Toots lied and exonerating Mae. Jimmy goes to the gas station to tell Flannagan he no longer wants to buy into the partnership. He sees Mae pumping gas under a Doyle  Flannagan sign. They argue and reconcile.

PROBLEM: Fact1: everybody in unit was expecting Carl Griffin to take over new commander, Fact2: pilots behave like kids sometimes disobeying orders and foolishly losing precious pilots and precious planes, Fact3: Griffin stays closer to young pilots, Fact4: Kirby is sending pilots to death, Fact5: HQ does not approve of tactics

SOLUTION:
Major Dan Kirby John Wayne arrives at VMF247 Wildcats as the new commander when everybody in the unit was expecting Captain Carl Grif Griffin Robert Ryan to take over. Kirby is strict and makes this understood from day one. Assigned to the Cactus Air Force during the Guadalcanal campaign, Kirby has few planes available and a lot to accomplish with a field attacked daily by the Japanese. His pilots are young and behave like kids, sometimes disobeying orders and foolishly losing precious pilots and precious planes. Kirby is requiring maximum effort, and Captain Griffin is not as tough as Kirby wants. Griffin stays closer to his young pilots, one of them his own brotherinlaw, Vern Cowboy Blithe Don Taylor. Kirby for his part hates the decisions he has to make, knowing that he is sending pilots to their death, but the success of his missions is the most important thing to him. He keeps this secret from the rest of his squadron. The hard conditions of the war force Kirby to get even more strict with his exhausted pilots. He even refuses sick leave to men with malaria or to allow planes with problems to return to base. Tension between Griffin and Kirby soon peaks. Griffin recognizes the hardships Kirby faces, but he is often more driven by his sentimental side. Kirby is a fan of lowlevel ground attacks to support the Marine units, but HQ does not approve of his tactics until Marines are dangerously imperiled by the Japanese. Kirby then adjusts squadron tactics, despite losing a number of pilots while trying to prove his point. In his most successful operation, he leads his squadron in an attack on a huge Japanese convoy – a scene likely based on the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal. Promoted to Lt. Colonel, Kirby is given the chance to organize lowlevel attack tactics in the US. Kirby then returns to the front, to the same unit and aircrew, now equipped with F4U Corsair fighters. Kirby leads his men against Japanese troops and Kamikaze attacks during the Battle of Okinawa. During a crucial moment in the battle, to avoid splitting his formation, Griffin denies assistance to his brotherinlaw Blithe, and as a result Blithe is killed. Kirby is shot down and injured but is picked up by a Navy launch. Since he is now to leave the squadron, he has to appoint a successor. He appoints Griffin CO of VMF247, as he understands that Griffin now can place the lives of his pilots second. They split with a friendly promise to meet again. Kirby admits that every moment in which he is required to make a decision is a nightmare, but that comes with the territory of being a leader under these circumstances. Throughout the film, MSgt. Clancy Jay C. Flippen, an old Marine veteran and comradeinarms of Kirby, provides comic relief. To the consternation of other units on the island, Clancy uses unorthodox creative methods to obtain provisions for his unit. His improvising helps the poorly equipped VMF247, but at the end of the film, Clancy loses some stripes.
