If I could have just one minute? Please, I've got this fashion show just staring me in the face. I realize your problem. I have one, too. A musical show. Bright, witty, modern now highly expensive, since I'm waiting for a designer to make up her mind. It's more than just my mind. What would the store think? I'm just a...
- Look, I'm not asking to do this. - Look at this! Beautiful! Wonderful design! As long as she stands like this. But can she do this? Don't tell me it's impossible. Nothing's impossible. - Who said that? - The bongo number. I have no idea what I may do with the bongo number. I may go completely insane. And if I do, I ...
- Wednesday night. - Yeah, Wednesday night. - Randy? - I don't think I'll do a bongo number. Did I ever tell you the idea.... Let's tear this up and start all over again. Tear it apart. Two, three four, five.... I'll say one thing: Marilla was the best-dressed fight fan the seconds had ever seen. Hi, girl. Am I late? ...
"A hydra-headed monster"? "Feeding with all nine mouths on the boxing game." My boy at Princeton was quite upset. They don't appreciate that at Princeton. - He can switch to Harvard. - Be reasonable. I'm a family man. I've got a lot of responsibilities. I admit I take a dollar or two under the table, but I pay all my t...
- Thank you. - Good night. - Good night. How did I know? He certainly doesn't look like a crook. I'd never take him for a crook. How many crooks have you known? A new side of Mike. A man in a huff. He didn't want to talk, so I had to watch the fight, too. It was awful. One of the men, the older one, was being punched ...
- I'm fine. I'm sorry, Mike. That's all right. Come summer, I'll take you to the tennis matches. - Mike, boy. - Not now, Charlie. Mike, I got a little something for you. Got a slice of information. - Tomorrow. - It's a very warm slice, Mike. I could let you have it for a Ulysses S. Grant. I haven't got... Two Andrew J...
He's also known as "Charlie the Sneak." He peddles information. - What kind of information? - Any. Charlie's not fussy. What was all that talk about Ulysses S. Grant and Andrew Jackson? Ulysses S. Grant is a $50 bill. - It is? - It's got Grant's picture on it. Andrew Jackson's $20, Lincoln is $5... - Washington is $1 ...
You'll meet him. I invited the regular crowd for poker next Wednesday. Wednesday? - Anything wrong with that? - No. That's fine. Just fine. The show crowd was coming that night, too. It started out a bad evening, and worsened steadily. Play cards. Play cards. - What are they doing in there? - Reading a play. Who's r...
Sea horses. I'll get the sandwiches. Aces. - How's the game going, dear? - Yeah. - Did you want something? - Well, yeah. The food, if it's ready. I'm sure it is. - Everybody ante? - I'm in. I'll get it. You go and play, dear. Fred deals the cards. - Mike Hagen live here? The poker game. - Mike Hagen? Yes. Thank you...
Nothing, right? Where's the game? In there. - Hello, boys. - Hi, Maxie. How you been? Glad you could make it. I feel pretty good, Mr. Hagen. I'm making a comeback, you know. You're the boy that can do it, Maxie. And Solly Horzmann's gonna manage me, right, Solly? Sure, like I told you. Sit down, Maxie. - Deal me in....
- That's very sweet. He's not going to hit anybody, is he? - Why would he hit anybody? - I don't know. Told me not to worry about trouble. I don't know what not to worry about. - What is it? - Nothing. I told you he's punchy. - Just forget it, will you? - I'll try. Nice work, Maxie. Nice work. How about that? He wins...
A "poker loaf," she calls it. Yeah, but, I asked for bologna and cheese and stuff, you know? Well, it's all cheese and there's bologna in the middle. Okay. They don't seem to be going. Let's just take the food and the poker table and move them to the study. - Then you won't be disturbed, all right? - Fine. Give me a ha...
I don't like it. There's never any trouble around here. Never. Just put it over there by the table. That's right. Thanks. - I had one fight too many, you know. - I'm sorry. Yeah, I was fighting Tony Bleney and.... You see that eye? I got 16 stitches in that eye. In the eighth round, Tony opened it up and the blood pou...
Sandwiches. We split the expenses every week. If you play at a different house each week why doesn't the host take care of the sandwiches? It would all even up in the end. We do it this way because we like it this way. Yes, there were going to be words, all right. It'll be done the same way six weeks from tonight when ...
This is a picture of my wife and my three sons. They're a little bigger now. The oldest is about six feet. He plays football up in Maine. I'd be happy to have you meet them sometime. And some other time, if you'd like, I'd be happy to beat both your ears off. - Easy. Don't lose your head. - Right now, if you'd like. R...
It's not just you, of course, it's all my friends. So you know what? You're not coming up to my place anymore. After all, we're a pretty neurotic bunch. Mike doesn't understand us. Until he gets used to us, I'm going to keep all of you away from him. - Protect him from our neuroses. - That's right. And Mike's not goin...
I'm a trifle long-waisted. - Nothing we can't take care of. Luckily you're tiny in the hips and your bust is perfect. Well.... I've got to run. I have 100 things to do before my fashion show. It's been very nice. Congratulations on getting the part. - I don't think I have yet. - You will. Zach, you've got to. She's p...
$850. What made you come? I don't know. I was working and suddenly I had this hunch. A real hot flash, go to the Delsette store. No, I mean it, it happens to me like that sometimes. Quick hunches. Feeling that something nice is about to happen. Well, look at that! Zach, here. That's Lori Shannon, she's in the show. - ...
"So," I thought, "he knows her." I'm not naturally suspicious, but this you couldn't miss. I see something like that for you in the garden number. Slit up the sides for more freedom in dance. - Don't you think so, Zach? - Yes. By the way, Miss Shannon, how are your legs? - No complaints. - I was sure there wouldn't be....
It's Thursday, Mr. Hagen, she's off. Yeah. Mr. Daylor told us to drop in. He's angry at you, Mr. Hagen for going on writing those stories about him after he asked you not to. What we're here for is not to hurt you or anything like that. It's more like a warning. Yeah, friendly like, you know. Leave him go. Now, what I ...
- 'Bye, Mr. O. So long, Mr. Hagen. Nice of you boys to come by. Mr. Hagen, remember: No more articles about Mr. Daylor. Is your lip all right? It's fine. People should be more careful. He might have hurt you. Not Johnny O. How did the rehearsal go? I came home. Listen, Mike, there's something on my mind about us. About...
- Lori Shannon! For dinner? You know what I'm talking about. All that elaborate pretending. "How do you do, Miss Shannon?" "How do you do, Mr. Hagen? So nice to meet you." I introduced you. You let me introduce you and all the time.... Wait. I didn't know.... Why didn't you tell me about her? - What's the big secret?...
- Who else? - In my apartment? - In your apartment! Where's the picture? Show me the picture. I tore it up. You tore.... - In a law court... - We're not in a law court yet. Just because you happen to find a picture of a girl.... You found a picture of a girl in my apartment? Not a girl. Lori Shannon. You knew her. W...
- Forget him? - Forget him. You're a lousy newspaperman, but you're not worth a nickel lying in an alley. I've been after Daylor for two years. I need a couple of weeks to finish the job. Three, at the outside. I've got affidavits coming in. All right. You want to dig your own grave? I'll lend you a shovel. Only on my...
One more thing, you'll need somebody around for protection. Is Maxie Stulz still around? He is. Fine. Send him in. Three weeks with Maxie Stulz, I'll be punchier than he is. - No! - Shut up! Maxie, come in here. Hi, Mike. Maxie, listen carefully. There are some mugs in town that don't like Mike Hagen. They want to hu...
Right. - Anybody looks cross-eyed. Right? - Right. Anybody looks cross-eyed. Anybody. Right? - Right? - Right! - You looking cross-eyed? - Maxie, no. He looks cross-eyed. He always looks like that. He lost a horse. It affected his mind. Mike, I've been trying to reach.... - I believe you've met Maxie. - Of course. -...
Something very important. I don't want you to be upset, but.... Well, you see, I'd like.... Maxie, will you stand over there for a minute? Please? Thank you. I'd like to take you into my confidence. May I do that? - That would be a novelty. - Please, let's not assume attitudes. As far as that matter is concerned, I do...
- How have you been, Mr. Maxie? - He's been fine. I was conversing with Mr. Maxie. Mr. Maxie doesn't know what you're talking about. You're packing a shoe with a hole. You only wear these when you're writing. I'll be doing some writing on the road. Maxie, please. It was pretty obvious, this sudden trip. And bringing Mr...
So long, Marilla. - Goodbye. - Goodbye. - I hope you two will be very happy. - Thank you very much. - Mr. Higginsbury and Mr... - Mr. Smith. How do you spell "Smith"? - Make a cross. Keys, please. - Okay. Suite 406. How do you do, miss? I'll place a few local calls now and then but I'd like the party to think I'm out ...
I realized it then. Maxie had died! Okay, Maxie. It's okay. It's okay, Maxie. - Stop! - Where? Who? Cross-eyed? It's all right, boy. It's okay. Nothing. Forget it. All right. Circle seven, zero, five, nine, eight. - Hello. - Ned? Yeah. Mike? I just wanted to tell you. Maxie Stulz sleeps with his eyes open. Why,...
Maybe the whole thing was a mistake. That's what it was, a horrible mistake. Only what about the photograph? All right, what about the photograph? A man can have a picture of a woman without knowing her, can't he? No. Then put it this way: Mike is a newspaperman, he meets all kinds of people. He could've met Miss Shan...
Not bad, sweetie. Go to your room and I'll clean it up. All the four parts right over here. Take it from just before the circle. What have you proved? Also nothing. I admit I could be wrong. I just can't stand not knowing. And I certainly can't ask her. "Pardon me, Miss Shannon, but was my husband in love with you?" -...
You see, I hate to intrude. Playful little fellow, isn't he? - I'm so sorry. - That's all right. Come along now. Over here, 'cause you're a naughty dog. Right, now sit. That's a good boy. Miss Shannon, I'm usually a man of quite a few words but I'll try and make this as brief and tactful as possible. Yes. What I have t...
What hotel? We're at the Whitestone, but we're leaving here tonight. Well, why can't you talk now? Who's there? Zachary. Yeah, Zachary, sure. The whole crowd, you're working. The weather? The weather here? Well, it's.... You know. Hello, Marilla? I can't hear you. Hello? Hello, Marilla. Yeah, I can hear you now. I...
Mike? I just read your stuff, it's great. Keep your nose off the street. You may win the Pulitzer Prize. Stick it out and Daylor will bite it off. Your job is to find Mike Hagen. Who have you got working on it, a troupe of clowns? Clowns? In Chicago was Joey Golner. This is not a good guy? In Boston, it was three boy...
Hello, honey, will you call that number again for me? I'm in Detroit. It's a nice town, Maxie. Lots of automobiles, you'll love it. Hello, Marilla? How are you? This is Gwen, Mr. Hagen. Mrs. Hagen isn't here. When will she be back? I don't know. She didn't say. - Do you know where she went? - No, I don't know where s...
Why should anything be the matter? I don't eat and I don't sleep but outside of that everything's just dandy. Marilla, will you listen, please? If you're still worried about Lori Shannon, you've got it all wrong. I wouldn't have cared if only you'd have told me. "How do you do, Miss Shannon?" All right, I've had enough...
I came up the stairs. I didn't want the elevator boy.... Have you got a drink? Thanks. Not now, boy. I guess you're sort of surprised to see me. - Mind if I sit down? - Please, do. What I came about.... All right, boy, that's enough. I came really because.... Will you stop? There's something of the utmost importance I...
How's Marilla been acting lately toward you? About the same. What does that mean? I think she's getting ready to slug me. That's why I'm here. You see, Marilla found a picture of you. And she thinks that.... Well, you know what she thinks. Anyway she's going to ask you about us. I've got a story all worked out. This c...
- She won't believe it either. - Why? I read something like it once in a comic strip. Even there they didn't believe it. Hello? Yes? Yeah, hello, Miss Brown. Where? Why, of course. Well, yes, I was in bed, but that's perfectly... Could you just give me a few minutes? - Yes, all right. - What? She's in the lobby. She ...
Frank Nordley. He's a friend of yours. The Green Bay Packers. I've played this scene before, I thought. In a blackout on the borscht circuit. Hello. What a sweet dog. - This is the silliest thing. I'm terribly sorry. - That's all right. We were all working at Zach's tonight and I decided the air would do me good so I ...
It's only a mile or so. Thank you. You know, I have a real phobia about taxi drivers. I could've gone to the apartment and asked him to wait. But whenever I do that I'm always afraid they'll think I'm trying to cheat them. Do you have a fear like that? I could say I didn't know I had it. But I'm a very bad liar, Miss ...
Marilla, what are you doing here? There's no explanation for what you did to me. - I don't want to listen to you. - Come back here now. You're jumping to the wrong conclusions, altogether. You don't want a taxi. You're not getting... Don't touch me! Take your hands off me! You mustn't be deceived by appearances. Appe...
- Taxi. Taxi. - Just a minute. Come back. Will you let me go? I told you I hate that. Don't get in that cab. Marilla! Don't drive that cab away, I'm telling you. - Don't drive it away. Stop! - Taxi, drive on. Come back. Marilla! Officer, I've got plenty of troubles tonight. I don't need any from you. I'm a fighte...
"Holy smoke," I say. Holy smoke. - Aren't you Maxie Stulz? - That's right, Maxie Stulz. Don't you remember me, Charlie Arneg? Yeah, sure, that's right. Did you see Mr. Hagen, Charlie? - No, Maxie, Mr. Hagen's in Detroit. - Where? Detroit. See? It says right here in the paper. "Mike Hagen is in Detroit." - Where am I, ...
Real hot. And worth even more to Mike Hagen than I could get from Marty Daylor. Hi, Max. Mr. Higginsbury in? - Who? - Mr. Hagen. Where is he? Shut that door, Maxie. Mike, boy. - How did you know where I was? - Relax, Mike, boy. I met Maxie in the lobby last night. Then I see you come in. What do you want? I got a nic...
- Without a doubt. I, the undersigned, promise to pay to Charles Arneg.... - Make it Charles, will you, Mike? - Yeah. $500, 30 days from the above date. What about Mrs. Hagen? Mart Daylor's boys are putting the snatch on Mrs. Hagen tonight. In Boston. How do you know? I invest in a few beers with the right people. The...
With Mart Daylor maybe, so you can earn another McKinley? Mike, a guy's got to make his own way in this world, but a thing like that, I just... Maxie, cross-eyed. Now, Max, boy. You remember me? Charlie? Charlie Arneg? I want to speak to Mrs. Michael Hagen. Marilla Brown. Right away. Impossible. I can't get her to ...
- Come on, Maxie. - Where? What? - We're going to Boston. - Again? Move! - Come here with me. - You wait here. Something's the matter with Lori's next change. - They can't fix it. Will you take a look? - When I agreed to come... Marilla, don't be like that. She can't go on the stage. You can't do that. Please, Maril...
What about? Let's talk about Michael Hagen. Interesting subject. You first. Of course I knew Mike. I knew him very well. But I lost him when you came along. He's quite a man, Michael Hagen. No saint, of course but you must have suspected that before you married him. Maybe, even, that was why you married him. I don't t...
Give him a chance and he'll tell it to you sometime. - A real dilly. You'll love it. - Give me a hint. I don't want to spoil it for you. But if I were you, I'd believe it. After all, he's only lying about something that happened before he met you. He has nothing to lie about since. Take my word for it. That's what I'd...
- No. - He wants to see you, Mrs. Hagen. He's been hiding out, printing those articles about Mr. Daylor and some very rough people have put the finger on him. I could take you to him right away. There's a plane in about 20 minutes. Please! Good night, Miss Brown. What? No, let me go. The punchy. Get that punchy. Maxi...
Marilla, will you get in here? There's trouble with the costumes. Foul. There he is. - Randy, boy. - Hi, Mike. Are you all right, dear? - Are you all right? - Sure. - Did they hurt you? - I'm all okay. - Poor darling. - Are you all right, sweetheart? - Are you sure you're fine? - Yes. Look. Right now, before anything ...
For the record. Mart Daylor was convicted and sentenced to three to five years. He was released after eight months, for good behavior. But his reputation as a crook was ruined, and he faded into obscurity. Mike and I are still together of course. We never argue anymore, and when we do it never lasts more than a week or...
"a notorious outlaw refuge in the Sierra Grandes "where the young couple are believed to have fled. 21 dead, three wounded, including Mr. Reed." Jesse Reed. Portalis... New Mexico. Gotch! Gotch! Oh! Never around when I want him. What can I do for you? My name's Paladin. I got your wire. What do you plan, Mister? Your ...
Now, that ain't being very hospitable, Jesse. I don't need to be hospitable. Man claims I sent him a wire. He just ain't telling the truth. Well, I sent the wire, Jesse. What? ! Well, who asked you? What's going on here? Who are you? Oh. A fast gun, huh? Fast enough. And what do you think you can do for me? Well, Dave...
You're paying for Dave Enderby delivered and breathing. And when I deliver him, that will come to $1,000. That big black gun of yours comes high. Let's have a look at it. What do you think of that? I asked a man for his gun, and he hands it to me. Why, you overdressed tin soldier, you have about as much chance against ...
That's where I left 21 good men. Just remember this. They say a lone rider can get into Perdido, but the main trick is the getting out. Buenos dias, amigo. There's a man called Dave Enderby. Señor Enderby. My friend. My heart longs to see him. When two friends meet, there is much to talk about. Is he alone? Señor, it ...
You can use my knife. Hand it over. Señor! There is one law in Perdido. We do not fight with each other. Well, I want to thank you for reminding me of that. We're just having a little fun here, and, well, I ain't going to be the one to spoil it. Go ahead. Try it. Señor! I don't mind giving stuff away, but nobody takes...
He wants you alive. How do you figure on getting me out of Perdido? A lot of sentries out there. You don't suppose this village is sick enough of you by now to want you to go? Uh-uh, it'd be bad for future business. What's your name anyway? Paladin. Paladin, huh? You know, you're more fun than old man Reed and his whol...
Our soil is poor. All we have to offer is hospitality, for those who need it. Or so long as their money holds out. It's a poor business, señor, that does not show a profit. Oh. I must tell you about our bell. If it should ring when one leaves here, that one is always met in the pass. Looks like a church bell. It was. ...
The Gospel by Saint Enderby. English bone china. Beautiful. We had this at home when I was a boy. And your silverware is very handsome too. It all came with the house. Dave wanted me to have the best. Dad wouldn't even understand what made one thing better than another. No, I guess he's just a good judge of men. He's ...
He wouldn't shoot my father any more than he would me. If I did half the things folks said, then I'd be dancing at rope's end long ago. There's still time. Nancy, will you go in the house and get me that old bottle of wine we've been saving? He's trying to make you fight, Dave. Don't let him. Go in the house and get m...
Yes. no trouble. No trouble. All right. We've got a long way to go. Come on. Buenos días, señora. You've completed your business in Perdido, Señor Paladin? I had bad luck. I came after Dave Enderby, and he's still there. I see you changed your gun, señor. A sign of friendship, perhaps? Possibly. Anyway, I've put myself...
Aren't we ever going to rest? I guess we can now. He'll be catching up to us about now. Between the two of us, we left a clear enough trail for him to follow. Between the two...? If the trail was any longer, you'd have a real problem in modesty. And he'll come after you. Not out of any feelings for you, but because of ...
Why you... I didn't agree to become an accessory to murder. There's a warrant out for this bushwhacker, and you're going to let the law take him. I am paying for him, and he's mine. Only as a son-in-law. And the hangman will arrange a quick divorce. Now listen... Reed, you vindictive old goat, your daughter's outside w...
I'm so happy to see you. Hello, Hey Boy. You have good business trip? Hey Boy, this business was a pleasure. Hey, boy, two fresh decks of cards, Room 204, right away? Right away. Game, Hey Boy? Big game, lots of money. Do the other players happen to know who that gentleman is? Oh, him? Him lose all the time, Mr. Palad...
Thanks. Cookie, sir? We should be sitting right off the Honshu coast. - See if those frogmen are ready. - Aye, aye, sir. We close enough to pick up a couple of geisha girls, Mr. Landon? Yeah. Nice, fat ones with horns on them. Horns? He means mines, dope! They're right on the edge of the minefield, according to the DR...
The dream sequence is over. You're on. You're the head man in this act, so get into your gear. What time is it? Time for you to go out and get a couple of those Japanese mines. - Ain't I the lucky one? - Yeah. You're lucky it's me waking you up and not Capt. Abbott. - You think he's sore? - No, no. He likes it. His g...
Are you satisfied? Where does it say in Navy regulations...? Come on, they're waiting for you out there. A few days from now, we'll be sitting around Wing Joe's listening to Wes Barton telling us all about how he won the war. Single-handed. Hey, tell us about it, will you, Wes? - Come on! - Come on, Wes, tell us about ...
- You're not kidding. - What happened to him? - Too much, too long. Get him below. Where's Barton? He was with Cordice and Smith. Cordice, isn't Barton with you guys? I thought he was with you. Hey, Barton! Wes! That guy couldn't drown. We'll go back after him. Barton! - Lines secured, sir. - Very well. Radar contact o...
Wes! - Clear the deck. - Captain, I see Wes! - Where? - About 100 yards out! I see him, sir! - I think. - You, get below. Barton! Wes! Clear the bridge. Lookouts below. - What about Wes Barton? - Two thousand yards! We can't do anything for him now. Hatch shut! Take her down fast, 5-7 feet. Ready all tubes. Stand by,...
Mark. Bearing 2-5-0. Final bearing and shoot. Stand by, aft. Tubes aft ready and standing by, sir. Bearing. Mark. Bearing 2-5-0. Fire seven. - Seven fired electrically, sir. - Fire eight. Eight fired electrically, sir. Got them! High, fast cruise coming in on us, captain. - Stand by, forward. - Stand by, forward. Final...
Rig for depth charge. All compartments, rig ship for depth charge. - Fire in the forward engine room. - Lay aft, Don. Check on the fire. We've lost main control, sir. Screws have stopped turning. Take over, Paul, I'm going to Control. - What's our depth? - Two hundred feet. What's it look like? Have we lost them? Can'...
I must kiss you. At least if you kissed her on the cheek... Come on, Freddy, give her a kiss. She won't bite you. - Sure, Freddy. - Come on. - Never mind. You're my boyfriend. - Hey! Look out! Come on, now. Cookie, give me the picture. - Oh, baby! - Oh, come... Give me the picture, Cook! Okay, Landon. Let's talk. Wha...
We'll never know, will we? There was no time to figure the odds. I had to rely on experience and instinct. Right or wrong I decided to play it safe for the 85 men on this sub. Tell me what did your instinct tell you about this? In that split second, did instinct remind you that Barton might be waltzing your girl around...
Only I didn't wanna be cheered up, sir! I figure that after what happened today we shouldn't have a birthday party. We should have a wake. Back where I come from, that's... He's kind of broken up, sir! He was on deck, and he claims he saw Lt. Barton just before we... I did see him! You probably did. Port back, full. Le...
- You've heard about Wes? - Yes. I talked to Landon. Somehow, I feel it's all my fault. Everything's such a mess, and I... Let's get out of here. I'll sign out. I've got a jeep. Take over for me, will you, Frankie? You knew I was fresh out of a bad marriage when we met. I wanted to be sure this time, so I played it saf...
It's Landon, isn't it? He didn't come right out and say so, but I knew what he thought. It's crazy, Case. Don't you see? He doesn't know you. Don't you see how crazy it is? He's right about one thing. I can't take up where Wes Barton left off. I'd never feel right. And if I forgot, there'd be people and faces to remin...
Would you say there were mines out there? No, sir. Well, there are. It looks more like fish or seaweed to me, sir. Does that sound like seaweed? - No, sir. - All stop. All stop. Let's hope we're not hung up again. - All back, full. - All back, full. - All stop. - All stop. - All ahead, one-third. - All ahead, one-third...
- Matches. - He made it again. - I'm telling you, he shaved the dice! - Stop him, somebody! - I bet you five more it comes out. - Come on, dice! - Use the cup, Carroll. - Come on. Blow. What do you mean, "blow"? Come on. I got a six. How are we doing on sixes, Freddy boy? - Just a minute. I have to figure it. - What...
- How come he knows so much? - Never mind. Carroll, shoot the dice. He knows all about science too: radar, electronics, sonar. He knows more about these sonar tests than all you put together. He was explaining about these mines... Look, either you shoot the dice or get off... All right. Come on. Fade me. Fade me. Al...
I'm going forward, Charlie. - Forward room. - Yes, sir, captain. Suppose we're going through an enemy minefield like into Tokyo Bay. What's this? A kind of crap game? No, sir. Freddy was just explaining to us about the sonar tests. Well, go on, Freddy. I want to hear this too. These nickels, dimes and quarters, they're...
Somebody! Doc! Come on. The skull is badly fractured. There's no chance unless we get him right back to base. Ring the conning tower. Paul? Sonar and radar still out? They will be for two or three hours. What's our visibility? What's visibility? Tropical storm coming up. Visibility less than 100 yards. I'm coming up. ...
Casey, your dummy-mine tests have helped us a lot but I'm taking you off them for a special mission. You'll have sealed orders aboard the Starfish in an hour. Yes, admiral. About my exec, Lt. Cmdr. Landon? - You say he is a good officer? - Yes, sir. Any reason why he shouldn't go out with you? No, sir. Good. Then hop t...
I don't think I should ask anyone else to take over. Very well. Pick your men. - No other orders. - Yes, sir. - Prepare to surface on battery. - Prepare to surface on the battery. - How does things look up there? - No Japs, plenty of installation. - Ready to surface below. - Surface.

Paul, have a look at this. Landon, there's a Japanese merchantman heading into the straits. - Quite a temptation. - We were supposed to avoid contact. I'm not sinking her, just following her through. But our orders, captain. My orders don't say anything about a situation like this. And we can't radio for new ones. Here...
One hour, 14 minutes since we started our transit. - Another 15 minutes, we should be at... - Captain. Forward reducer just let go, captain. Shut that valve! All stations, put Mr. Landon on. All stations, put Mr. Landon on. This is Landon in the forward room. The room's under pressure. Landon, when I want you to volunt...

Hunter Seven, calling Red Dog Two spotted life raft, picking up survivors. Have ambulance ready. Over. - I'll take over, Frankie. - All right. You hav...
You have to stay a little bit longer. I have a slight concussion, and 60 men are killed. That ought to earn me a Purple Heart with 60 clusters. - An investigation, sir? - An inquiry into the loss of the Starfish. Naturally, I had to report that the captain carried out the action against my advice. - I understand, sir. ...
- Yes, sir? I also remarked you were not equipped for command because you seemed incapable of making the sometimes painful decisions required in an emergency. Now I understand, captain. I doubt that, Mr. Landon. I think you're a man who is ruled by personal emotion and you attribute that behavior to everyone around you...
Yeah. They'll be coming to see you. I wanted to tell you something, sir. It's... It's about Lt. Barton. That day, my birthday what I thought about you... I wanted to tell you, sir, I was wrong. It's been on my mind a long time. - I understand, Freddy. - No, sir. I have to tell you. I know what you did for me. Riskin...
I don't know anymore. I don't know how I'll ever know. Previous testimony has established that you were without radar or sonar. And at this time, you sighted a Japanese merchantman. Are these facts correct, captain? Capt. Abbott? They are, sir. Captain, your operation orders said nothing about a mission through the str...
- Yes, sir. Did Capt. Abbott consult you, as his executive officer before undertaking this foray? I was in charge of damage control at the time, sir. The captain merely announced his decision to me. Did you express an opinion? - Yes, sir. I tried to protest. - On what grounds, Mr. Landon? On the grounds that a transit...
I have no command, sir. Well, the Sea Ray is back from the China Sea. Yes, sir? It was Adm. Nimitz's suggestion that you take over its command. The Sea Ray. That's the boat Landon expected to get. I'll have a talk with him. You be at the briefing this afternoon. If Landon is there, he's your exec. Aye, aye, sir. Gentl...
Intelligence figures the Japanese know something is brewing. We don't want any single unit to be spotted until you're all in position to go into action simultaneously. You are to rendezvous on June 23 west of La Pérouse Strait and make your exit. Any questions, gentlemen? Now Adm. Nimitz would like to say a few words. ...
Well, I guess I didn't have much to say after all. What are you going to do after the war, Case? I've told you a hundred times. I want to hear it once more. I'm going into the surplus business. I'm gonna buy up all the old mines and sell them to the man in the moon. There's no water on the moon. How do you know so much...
Depth 1-2-0. 1-2-0 feet, captain. We're at the halfway mark, captain. Mines ahead, sir. I thought this was too easy. No mines or surface vessels. How far? I can't tell, captain. Blips are coming in all over the place. - They must be packed solid. - Rig for depth charge. All compartments, rig ship for depth charge. - A...
Rig for depth charge. Rig for silent running and depth charge. - 200 feet, Charlie. - 200 feet. Put her on the bottom. When are they gonna give up? I think they're gone, sir. Can't be sure, sonar's out. How long to fix it? I don't know. I don't know what's the matter yet. No sonar, an unreliable chart, and they know we...
