Tell me, honestly. Oooh! What an ingratitude! I just left you 5 minutes ago. And then, I didn't really leave you since your guests seem to be so horrible. - My dear! My love! I ask you do not give up. You will be yourself again. This can't be! You all right, Monsieur Marechal? All right, all right. Listen, can I take my little negro? - He is simply charming. - I'm tired. Shut up, you little monster. Perhaps now you'll become immortal. Only ladies from high society are the real women. Countess led me to this conclusion when I posed to her. She read me a poem. You never heard poems in Romanian? This is indescribable! - Want some? - No. - What is it? You have a strange look. - I'm tired. - What? - This yacht! Front, rear, right, left - everywhere water!
- I want to live in the mountains. - Go back to Meuger. - No! No. I'm tired of playing fool. - Tony! - Oh, no! Tony! A, Monsieur Marechal! Today Panama, tomorrow we enter the Pacific Ocean. So what? Baroness should be informed about this news. - And what bothers you? - I'll show you. See, we are here now, and will be there tomorrow. Then we turn 200 miles to the left, and miss the storm again. - And if we turn to the right? - But they are waiting there! And... if Baroness finds out... Woman could be easily deceived. Monsieur Marechal! You are the man I was looking for! Tony! Tony! You haven't seen Monsieur Marechal? No, Madam. - Can I come in? - No. - For 5 minutes. - No.
- For 2 minutes? - Tony! So where is he? He was here a minute ago, ma'am. Findhim! You play hide and seek? Funny, isn't it? What do you do on this boat, along with Lily? - Traveling. - Are you in love with her? Do you care? And you... Can I ask what you're doing on this rotten boat, alone? I swim to Tahiti along with my uncle. And since I can't afford such a trip Lily kindly... - Who's there? - Edward, my little Veronica. "Edward, my little Veronica." I came to visit you. - "I came to visit you". - Not now. Be honest... don't you like him? I understand you. You will not regret it. How are you, Edward? Finally! I was looking for you everywhere. Where did you hide? It's imposible to catch you. - I'm thirsty.
- I give you a glass of water? I'm thirsty of kisses. Thirsty of fondling. Right now. Satisfy my thirst! Tame me! I'm your gazelle. - You want me to throw myself at your feet? - No, no! We make love like mad from the heat savannah animals. Let's love one another.. ...like at the dawn of mankind. - Can't we get some sleep first? Sleep is just a waste of time! Oh, no! Listen to this. Well, listen! Itisnotyhe rightway! I beg you! Stop it! Well,listen! No ,no ,no ... Well,no,no . Justdoit... Notthis... Tony. Tony. What? What happened? That crazy music won't let me sleep.
This bitch! First and last warning! If I hear one more sound from this pandora box, I'll throw it overboard! - And you will followed. - Scoundrel! Scoundrel! ... Killer! Let's sail away together. Leave this gang of weirdos. We sit in the lifeboat and some Japanese cargo ship will pick us up. We go down on land near Manila or Borneo... We will live there together, with sheeps around us... Do you agree? You don't want to... You never want anything. You are not fun. You talk to them but they will not listen... They don't understand. There is another reason to put a bullet in the head. I'm tired. I get home and I'll try again to settle down. Oh, no! Music killer! I despise you! I hate you! Scoundrel! Here you are! Take that! Scoundrel!
Monsieur Marechal! Well, it's close. - What? - The island, to which we sail. Barometer is a proof! Storm is coming! Most serious in the history of navigation. - Thank you, Monsieur Marechal! -WhaydidIdo ? - You want me to put out of business? Makemebankrupt? You said hell knows what, you vile beast! - Everybody can make a mistake. - Yes, I'll strangle you with my own hands! - Edward! Edward, what's wrong? Because of him I lost 100,000 dollars. He is not a fakir! He's zero with no magic wand! - Nothing! Scum! - What did you say? - Cheater! - Now, go contact someone else. - I'm going with my own hands... - Listen! Enough already! - No, it's not enough! Go to sleep! - Now what will happen to me?
- Don't worry. - They'll drop me on the land, that's for sure. - No. - Next time you advise him... - No, no more advices. Finish. Listen, I want to offer you a gold mine. Absolute sure thing. Veronica! it'sme ,Tony. Ibroughtyourshawl. Veronica! You can't leave it outside. Open the door. I have to talk to you. Veronica! Open up! Here is your shawl. No, you see? Monsieur Marechal, go back to your cabin. - You mean: "to yours"? - Save your irony for another moment. Himagain! Again! Again all those nonsenses! Prepare yourself! Punishment is coming. The storm is approaching. Monstrousity storm is coming! - Enough already!
Don't believe him. - I'm telling you! A storm! All will be washed away overboard! - Enough! - Finish your tricks, Monsieur Bob! You have already played me, you asshole! - What is it that? - I'm suffocating! - Stop! Hold it! - I'm suffocating! How is our fakir? Any better? Andourbrilliantfinancialexpert? Who is the best comedian? Who's better liar? Bob is never wrong! If he says there will be a storm - so there will be a storm. Well, so believe yourself. We're not fools. Here's your storm! Well, now you see? Well? Got a storm, right? A, Monsieur Marechal! Now we have some fun? I've been waiting for this for a long time. You are happy, aren't you? You got your storm?
Now Madame Baroness will raise my salary. Not before you keep the ship afloat. And it's not that simple. Tony! Do not worry! It's a simple storm. We just got a lousy captain. I will stand myself by the rudder, and everything will be fine. I beg you, o, God, White Manitou! Good. Excellent. Come quickly to the cabin. The storm even stronger ignites my passion. - Stop it! - What a strange feeling. - Oh, shit! What a beauty! This is incredible! What a beautiful view! Oh, damn! Hey, how beautiful! How beautiful, huh? Now carefully. Listen to me! I say, be careful! Beware of natives. Beware of scum. This is not Hollywood. Oh, I know that native islands. - What?
- Everyone! Marshall. Marquesas. All local islands. That's why I say: beware of the mirages. I'll go with you to the shore although I was going to stay in a cabin, to work a little. So, we will visit christian mission, leper colony and a museum. But no alcohol and no women! That's what finished Gauguin. You also come here. Behaveyourself. You represent Europe here. You see, I'm busy, dear discovering the simple joy of healthy living on the lap of the nature. O, nature, my mother! All get naked! Excuse me. - Is something wrong? - No. Look, the sun is shining weather is wonderful. - I'm next to you. What else do you want? - I was at the notary in the morning. - And what? - What? Look. Tatahuo-Rao. What is it? Legacy of my uncle. 4 hectares, 80 coconut trees. And the pebbles everywhere.
But not a drop of water. Look, virgin forest - it's so cool. This reminds me that I was the heir, and became pennyless. - It amuses you? - No, it's nervous. Your laughter is understandable. You can't understand. You have always been rich. Yeah? And who told you that? - Everyone says that. - They are all wrong. In fact, I have nothing. I am scoundrel. But mostly, a liar. And I can only blame myself for it. Financial expert, genius planner... This has never existed. I have always lived of the others. - You don't believe me? - No. How cool. You're a bad liar, Tony. Very bad. But at the same time - glorious. What is this smell? The natives poured rum on my head. Wait, don't move. - Now, I'll jump into the water. - What for?
- I will commit ritual of purification. - Stop. It's, nothing, nothing. Don't be afraid. Veronica! Veronica! Edward! Edward! If I tell you, that I have property on the French coast and in Switzerland would you believe me? - Yes, yes, of course, I believe that. So what I should do now? Give me a drink. Thank you. Thank you, brothers. Good. I understand what that means. And it's even better. I just wanted leave this piece of scrap. I didn't want to stay there. I'm not going to waste my youth. Thank you. It's too much for me. Let's go, my faithful companion. -Comewithme. - I can't. I'm not done, old chap. New York is waiting for me. No. The dump of scrap iron in St. Antoine! - No one needs you anymore, you moron.
- Oh, listen! Ihopehe willdie ofhunger. Don't comfort yourself with illusions, dear. Such people never die of hunger. Look. Real, the original. This is not all. For the same price you get a hat. Very good. - Three. - Two hundred. - Three. - Two hundred. - Okay. Here's more. Three. Agree. Three. - One. Two. Three. - That's it. Thank you. I do not know who you are and why you come here. But better leave soon. Don't expect anything good from this cursed land. Icamehere20yearsago. Ihad100millioninthebank. I was a respected man. And all of this is lost!
Manganese. You don't know what the hell is manganese. - I know. It's manganese. - Polynesian plateau is the richest manganese place on Earth. Millions of tons! Millions of dollars! For 20 years, I have been digging the tunnels. Two beers. Tons of earth hauled by myself. Look at the muscles I had two years ago I went on the last expedition. On the old boat. A Chinese man sold it to me for a bottle of whiskey. I was digging one day... two... three... I got totally exhausted. I ran out of the food. No water. It was like a hard labor camp. Yes, I was completely exhausted. I started hallucinating. I was like an agonizing animal. I was so close just to give up my life. I wish I could go back to this manganese paradise. But I will never return to the Tatahuo-Rao! - What! What did you say? - Tatahuo-Rao. - Repeat what you said. - Tatahuo-Rao.
Hey! Gentleman! .. - You are crazy! What's gotten into you? - You mixed me up with Tony! Honey, where are you going? Come to me. Manganese ore. It has a good price. Why uncle told me nothing? - Why? Oh, holy innocence! - Hey, Tony! - What? - Will you take me with you? - Do you have money? - I have some. - Then let's go. - Well, come on! - Thank you and goodbye. Kill the engine! Turn off the ignition. - I can't! - I'll fell... Well, after all we made it. Hey, over here! Follow me! - Old man lived here. - Poor man, if he'd known.
Okay, enough of this linger. Let's go look for a tunnel. Come on. Ifoundit ! Ifoundit! - Where is he? -JustlikeinthecaveofAliBaba . Youshouldseehow unusualishere. Come quickly. - Look at this beauty! - Damn! So many gems! Bob,throwme abag ... - You're here for the expertise? - Of course. - Expertise of what? - Manganese ore. - Place of excavation. - It's a secret. - Listen, Daddy. - What, baby? 3 million and 400, and another 16 million, how much that will be? That will be almost 20 million. - Plus another 15 million. - Let me focus... - Almost 35 million. - In old francs? - I brought Edward. - I said, no guests. It's my leisure time.
Sorry, but I can not see you. But I am not a stranger. It's just me! Veronica told me everything. It's great, dear Tony! I know Rockefeller, Nikos Vanderbilt but you have surpassed them all. Manganese! It's so cool. You need to sell it. I offer to buy it. I'm listening to your proposal. For my partner and broker my company would reserve a Swiss bank account. Does that suit you? I expected to hear different offer. I am not a broker but a representative of Mademoiselle Veronica Duval. See, who is this. Iwillnotlet predator,like you, pluck innocent orphan. Look. It's interesting. Analysis results. 71 percent. This deal will bring you 2 billion. You have exactly 3 minutes to enter the bid. You grab me by the throat! The countdown has begun. I don't know about this excavation. I don't know whether it exists. First I have to see everything. Okay, look. I am willing to provide you with that service.
Only because it's you. So, you give a deposit of 200 million and we'll show you the mine. 200 million? You're crazy! There are so many in the world interested in ecstatic personalities. 50 million. What do you think, you speak with half-wits? - Well, 150. - 70... - 125. - 90. - Okay. - It's a deal. - When do you want a cheque? - Immediately. In the name Veronica Duvall. And no cheating... Well, my suspicious friend. No more doubts? - Can I touch it? - Of course, Edward. Go down carefully. Attack! Forward! Stop! Captain, I see civilians. - What are you doing here? - And do you know you are on private property? - I know. This is a military training ground.
- Oh, really! Army owns this land. - And can you tellme since when? - Since 1880. On what basis you dig here? You dug this hole? - No. - Quickly, bury it up! Hurry! No, but... Weareoverthe island. Iseesoldiersthere! Great! Look at them. They bury that pit. Five days I was digging it. And three days dragged manganese over there. And now they bury it. Come and see! Poor guys! I'll go tell the pilot, to make another lap. Dad, let's go back, please. What is it? What happened to my little girl? - Why such a sour face! - Leave me alone. I gonna kill you! Shoot him! He needs to be shoot! Shoot him!
Smells good... Tastes good! Tastes good! Tastes good... Smells good... I can't take it. You two haven't eaten yet. That's not right. Tummy! Tummy! It's your lucky day to have such a delicious chicken! To cook a delicious Beggar's Chicken to satisfy the chief of beggars. It is my honor! What a nice girl! This old beggar ate your delicious chicken. Now I owe you a favor. I've nothing to repay you, this is... It's nothing! I have a few specialties I'd like you to taste. Let's go to the next town together. Good! That's great! What's your name, sir? My surname is Hung, and I'm the seventh in the family. Call me Uncle Seven, kids! Follow me! Tastes good! All right! You've served me such good food! I must repay you by teaching you some kung fu.
Follow me. Now you two fight. Come on! If Uncle doesn't know what you're capable of, how is he going to teach you? Watch out! Hold it! Your father's kung fu is so good! Why do you ask me to teach this kid? You know my father? If you didn't know who I was, why did you offer me such good food? I saw that you only have nine fingers, and then I realized that you're nicknamed the "Nine-Fingered Beggar"! Right! Yourfather is Eastern Evil, and I'm Northern Beggar. Eastern Evil, Western Poison, Southern King, Northern Beggar and the Pope had a duel in Hua Shan 20 years ago. We fought many rounds. Who ultimately won? Four of us lost to the Pope. But he's dead. And nobody knows where his brother, Zhou Bo Tong, is. You look so dumb. But your father-in-law is so smart. He couldn't have liked you. My father hasn't met him. If you can teach him some kung fu, my father will surely like him. All right. You go back to the inn first. Such powerful strength. My Dragon 18 Palms is precisely suited to your condition and your style. I will teach you a move called "Dragon shifts its body."
Now gather all your strength in your palm and strike as I did. My lad, why are you shaking the pine tree? To catch squirrels? The strength of your palm strike is not weak. But the movements of the pine tree dissolve your power. You should hit the tree without shaking it. Then you can break it off with a single strike. You can't just use brute strength! It has to be subtle and come from within. If you use your power indiscriminately, you will hurt yourself before you injure your enemies. Hmm... not bad! There is some good food coming! Uncle Seven, his kung fu is better than mine. Don't worry! After I eat, I'll teach you, too. You are 10 times smarter than him. You've mastered the hardest secret dart techniques within three days. How much kung fu have you learned from me this month? Nothing as powerful as Dragon 18 Palms! Dragon shifting its body. Dragon in deep pool. Dragon in the fields. Dragon in the sky. Dragon at war. Dragon dives. Dragon wags its tail. Jing has only learned 15 palms. I'll cook some more for you. Teach him all the 18 palm techniques, please. No, no, no.
He has enough to practice. I am leaving. Uncle Seven! Uncle Seven! Stop him! He's leaving! There's no point in stopping him if he really wants to go. Of the 18 palms you still have three more to learn. The 15 Palms are good enough for me. I'm not greedy for more. We should look for your six masters. Jing, let's go and take a look at the house. Follow me. Don't get lost. I'm a big man. What do you know? This plantation here is designed according to the "bagua" combination. Like a maze. And it's my father's expertise. This residence looks weird. Maybe it has some kind of connection with my father. That's why I have to go and have a look. Have a seat, please! I'm Lu. Excuse me for not being able to stand. You should be most welcome here. But unfortunately I have an enemy coming here. That's why... Who is the enemy? Although we don't know each other, maybe we can help.
Mei Chao Feng? Master Lu, don't be afraid! Why are you so afraid of Mei Chao Feng? Master, the Jiangnan Weird Six are here. My masters are here. You are the student of the six heroes. Welcome! Master! Jing-er! Jing-er! You are here, too! Where's the evil girl? Big Brother, greet the host first and talk about other things later. All right. All right. Have a seat, please. We've heard the news that Mei Chao Feng has been appearing around the Tai Lake area. So we've come all this way to visit you to see if you've got more news... She said she'd be here at noon to stir up trouble! I'm afraid she's already here! Master. Where's Lu Cheng Feng? Where's Lu Cheng Feng? Your younger brother is here. How are you, Sister? Can't you see that I'm blind? Your Brother Yuan Feng was also killed! If it wasn't for you, always wanting to bring us back to Peach Island to win favor with our master, we wouldn't have ended up like this. Who else is here? Jiangnan Weird Six.
Let your pupil fight! It's you. How can I fight with some nameless junior? Chen Yuan Feng was killed by me. Who else should you fight if not me? It's only been half a year since we parted at the Zhao residence! From whom did you learn this kung fu? Your kung fu is superior to his if it weren't for your lack of eyesight. Go back and fight and I'll use my "springing fingers" technique to spring out stones to indicate the direction of his attack. Then you can definitely win. Yes, Master. Who's that? His kung fu looks to be way beyond Mei Chao Feng's. Jing-er, come here. You kid! You were using Dragon 18 Palms to attack me. If the news of my being beaten by the old beggar's student spreads around, I will have disgraced my master at Peach Island. Come on! Let's fight another round! Father, what happened to your face? Master Huang! Shing Feng, you look good! Arise! At that time when Mei Chao Feng and Chen Yuan Feng stole my Jiuyin Sutra, I was wrong to have paralyzed both your legs and expel you from Peach Island. I blamed you unjustly. Master! How are you? At least I haven't been driven mad by someone.
Father, I hope you don't mean me! You are part of it! Father, they are the famous Jiangnan Weird Six! Masters of Brother Jing! I won't meet strangers! Let's go home! Chao Feng! I deserve death! Where's the Jiuyin Sutra? When I was at the Zhao residence, Rong said Master was coming. Out of this sudden shock, I lost it. Guo must have taken it! I didn't take your Jiuyin Sutra! Get out of here now! My pupil, Chen Yuan Feng, was killed by you. You are damn good. My kung fu was quite poor! That's why Master Chan was accidentally wounded by me. A Peach Island pupil can be wounded by an outsider? Father, he's a simple-minded person. Don't be so furious! Strike, I'll counter your Dragon 18 Palms! I won't dare fight with a senior like yourself. Fight with me? Actually you aren't worthy to spar with me. I'll stand still here. If I move, you win. I don't dare. You must. Father, if you wound him,
I'll never see you again! The six of you better kill yourselves before I make you suffer. Suffer? We are not afraid of death! I killed Chen Yuan Feng. I'll pay for it with my life, that's all. But I've yet to avenge my father's death. May I ask for more time? After my revenge, I'll go to Peach Island to claim my death sentence. Who is your enemy? The sixth prince of Jin, Wan Yan Hong Lie! Master has set up mazes all along these woods. Master has set up mazes all along these woods. Please be careful and follow me. You've seen how that evil father and daughter behaved. I'm going to avenge my father's death and must part from my masters now. This is for Brother Jing! This is for Rong-er! Taste good? Delicious! You weren't killed by my dad? No, but I promised to return to Peach Island as soon as I avenge my father's death. It isn't that easy to kill the sixth prince of Jin. I hear he has many men with good kung fu around him. That night at the residence of Zhao, I heard that they have big plans for Jiangnan! If Wan Yan Hong Lie is here in Jiangnan, I can kill him more easily. No. Listen to me. Let's go back to Peach Island first.
I have a way to help you with your revenge. Isn't the scenery on Peach Island beautiful? I've never seen so many beautiful flowers in my life! With the peach blossoms in March, it's truly beautiful. Father, Father! Rong-er is back! Father! Tomb of Peach Island Matriarch This is where Rong-er's mother is buried. Give it up! Bastard, you've spoiled my plan! You're the pupil of which of the seven Quan Zhen Taoists? I'm Guo Jing! Taoist Wang has passed on some of his inner power to me. That's why! I was a bit careless and hadn't gathered my inner strength for defense. I was almost wounded by Huang. It's fortunate that you helped me. The sound from Evil Huang's flute has great inner power. It's quite formidable. How come you are on Peach Island? I offended Master Huang, so I'm here for my death sentence. Who else taught you kung fu? The Jiangnan Weird Six and the Nine-Fingered Beggar Hung! Hung taught you kung fu, too? What did he teach you? Well, Dragon 18 Palms! You know Dragon 18 Palms? This is awesome. Can you teach me?
I'll call you master. No, no, no... Not so cool being that old beggar's pupil's pupil! Here, push against my palm and let me try out your kung fu! Who are you? Your kung fu is great. Take a guess who I am. The five greatest kung fu masters are... Master of the Quan Zhen Clan is dead. I've met Master Hung and the master of Peach Island. Are you "Western Poison", Master Ouyang or the Southern King Tuen? Neither. My last name is Zhou. You are Zhou Bo Tong! Pupil apologizes for having been disrespectful. My name is Zhou Bo Tong and you addressed me as Zhou Bo Tong. There is nothing wrong. Come here! Kid, let's become sworn brothers. What do you say? You don't want to because I'm too old? Oh, heavens! All right! All right! Let's become sworn brothers. Naughty Old Kid, Zhou Bo Tong and Guo Jing are here. To become sworn brothers. Sharing joy and sorrow! Whoever breaks this bond will lose his kung fu and won't even be able to fight against cats or dogs! Master!
Big Brother. What are you doing on this island? It's all because of the Jiuyin Sutra! Jiuyin Sutra? I've heard about that. The Jiuyin Sutra consists of two parts. They're the most advanced secret skills in all martial arts. Everyone has fought for it. My brother got it. Before he died, he gave me the two parts of the Jiuyin Sutra with two conditions. First, I'm not allowed to learn it. Second, I can't give it to others. I carried it with me and bumped into Evil Huang. He wanted to steal it? Evil Huang was too proud to rob it. At that time, he was with his new wife. He said his wife didn't know kung fu, but she wants to take a look. I only let her look at the second part. But his wife is so clever and has a photographic memory. I was so mad that I destroyed the second part. Rong-er is clever, too! Not long after Evil Huang got the Jiuyin Sutra, it was stolen by his two students. Chen Yuan Feng and Mei Chao Feng! Evil Huang was furious! His wife wanted to dictate it again but she couldn't remember its entirety! She was over-exhausted and died from dystocia in childbirth! Evil Huang vented his anger on me. Imprisoned me and forced me to hand out the first part of the Jiuyin Sutra. His woods are full of weird mazes so I can't get out, and I can't beat him, either. But his kung fu is not much better than mine, either.
So he cannot subdue me. That's why we have been stalemated for almost 15 years. If not for you, he would have succeeded. It must be Rong. In these 15 years, Evil Huang sent me food on schedule every day. I'm never short of food. Where's Miss Huang? They are criminals caught by Evil Huang. Then he cut out their tongues and made them serve on the island. Be patient. I'll find a way to save you. Brother, be patient. I'll teach you some kung fu after our meal. Have some. Although you've learned some kung fu these past few days, you still can't beat me! My brother forbade me to learn kung fu from the Jiuyin Sutra, but I'll teach you. It won't be breaking my brother's rules. No, I don't want to learn it. I won't be able to! You have to, even you don't want to! I'm not learning it! Where did you get this? It's a piece of leather in which Mei Chao Feng used to wrap the sword. I saw some strange words that I didn't recognize. I thought there must be something to it, and kept it. You really don't know what they are? Brother, I would never lie to you. Never mind. It's nothing important.
I've been on this island for 15 years and invented quite a number of styles. I'll teach you all of them. I'm afraid I won't remember them all. Don't worry. To start, I'll teach you some mnemonics. After memorizing them, you can start practicing. I'm not smart. I'm afraid I won't be able to! You're not allowed to not memorize them! Recite it ten thousand times a day! How can you forget? Listen up! Heaven knows the loss, the surplus and the inadequate. Rong-er. Western Poison, Ouyang Feng, sent someone here to arrange a marriage for his nephew. I accepted it. Father, I won't get married! Nonsense! That dumb kid and Zhou Bo Tong sure make a good pair. To choose being reduced to ashes, aeration is for the soul. Apotheosis is for Heaven; it's for topmost three flowers. Good job, brother! One month's hard work has been worthwhile! You've finally memorized all the mnemonics I taught you! Brother, there's no point in memorizing all of them without understanding what they mean. You start with memorizing them. Gradually, you'll come to understand them. Let's try some tricks. Good!
What tricks? Four-man fighting! Four? Right! Four! My left hand represents a man. My right hand represents another. Both your hands represent two men. Neither of them help each other. The four fighting against each other must be loads of fun! I know it'll be fun, but I don't know how to have both hands fight separately. Then we start with three. Later I'll teach you how to fight with both hands separately! Now you can fight with two hands separately. And it is not bad. Half a month's effort hasn't been wasted. Think about this. Your two hands using different styles at the same time is the same as two men fighting simultaneously, isn't it? When confronting enemies, try this! You'll have the great advantage of two against one! Brother, this is a letterfrom Rong! Don't wreck it! I know! Brother Jing, Western Poison arranged a marriage for me and his nephew, and my father agreed to it. It's fine. It's none of our business. No, Rong-er is mine! She must be going crazy now! There are lots of kung fu that can't be practiced after marriage.
Listen to me. Better off not getting married. We can talk about marriage later. But rescue her first! Isn't it perfect to have the nephew of Western Poison marry the daughter of the Eastern Evil? Brother, come back! Recite the Jiuyin Sutra again! No! "Ji Tsui Pavilion" "In the Peach Blossom shade flies the celestial sword" "From the bluish green tide forms the jade flute" Ouyang from the western territory bows to the master of Peach Isand. Greetings from son-in-law. Wishing you well. At ease. Is my nephew worthy of your daughter? Brother Huang, hard to imagine that you can have such a beautiful daughter! Please! Have a seat! What are you doing? Father, you'd better kill me! I'd rather die than marry this bad egg! Your daughter just wanted to try out my nephew's kung fu. Don't take it so seriously! Jing! Master Huang! Stinky kid, what are you doing here? Bravo! Greetings to Brother Hung! Greetings to Brother Hung!
Thanks! Master. Old beggar, congratulations on such a good pupil. Please have a seat. Uncle Hung! What business brings you to Peach Island? I come to plead to you for one thing. We've known each other for many years. Whatever you ask, I won't dare reject. Listen to me first before giving your consent. It might not be easy for you. If it were easy, you wouldn't have thought of me. That's right. That's true brotherhood. That means you consent? Agreed. If it's water, I'll enter water. If it's fire, I'll enter fire. Wait! Let's see what it is first. It's none of your business. Just get ready for a wedding banquet. Wedding banquet? Yes, both of them are my students. I asked Brother Huang to allow them to get married, and he agreed. You are wrong! His daughter has already been engaged to my nephew. Is that true? Yes! Please don't play tricks on me.
I'm not playing tricks on you. Now your daughter is engaged to two men. And both have the consent of the parent. Me, I am the matchmaker for Guo Jing. Where's your matchmaker bond? Both of us agreed. Why bother with the bond? There's one person who hasn't agreed. Who? Who? It's... Me, the old beggar. What's the point of forcing them to get married, if they both can't get along with each other? If they are stabbing and hacking away at each other everyday, what's the flavor in that? You both have put me in a difficult position. I'll test them with three questions. My daughter will marry whoever answers better. I won't favor either party. Agreed? What are the questions? First, it's kung fu. But it will harm the friendship if they fight each other. So Brother Feng will try Guo's kung fu, and Brother Hung will test your nephew. That's a good idea! Come. Come. Wait. I haven't finished yet. The four of you will fight on top of the pine trees. Whoever falls down first is the loser.
One more thing, if either of you uses excessive force and injures the junior, you will also lose. I have never heard of this kind of rule before. All right. As long as it is fair, I will follow the rules. Let's begin! Great! What a great Dragon Wags Its Tail. You taught your student well. Guo wins this round. Brother Ouyang needn't worry. There are still two more rounds. Yes. The second round is a test of literary skills. Father, you said it's a test of kung fu. Why the literary skills now? What do you know? You think the most advanced stage of kung fu is simply one-on-one combat? For people like us, we can't have a duel as common people. Here's my second topic: I want you two to accompany the tune I play with my flute. Both of you will break a branch off a tree and keep the beat of my tune. Whoever keeps better time will win. If your two hands are fighting different styles, it's just like two people are fighting simultaneously. Thanks Master Huang for your leniency. Good. Are you still calling me Master Huang? Address him as 'father-in-law.' Me? Why are you kowtowing to me?
Rong-er asks me to do so. In terms of inner strength, Guo is better. But just now I also tested rhythm, and Ouyang proved better. This round ended in a draw. Father, you... This book belonged to my late wife. Read it over at the same time. And then recite it. Whoever recites the most with the least mistakes will win. And my daughter will marry him. Evil Huang, you know that my student is dumb with books and yet you ask him to recite a book! This book has great meaning to me. Jiuyin Sutra, Second Half In fact, my wife died because of this book. I wish that her spirit in heaven could choose her son-in-law herself by giving her blessing. This is bullshit! You'd rather bring out a dead woman's story to scare us! Shameless! Come, let's go! Brother Hung. If you want to bully your way around here, you still need a few more years of training. Now what? You want to fight? If you aren't well versed in Taoist magic, you'll never find your way out. I'll burn down all your damn flowers and trees! Just try it! You... Master Huang and teacher, please don't ruin yourfriendship! I'll just take the test. If I am not clever enough, then I deserve to lose. Right.
Go ahead. Make a fool of yourself. I only taught you kung fu. I never taught you how to recite! When the juniors fight, it should not reflect on our own kung fu skills. But we haven't seen each other in twenty years, your kung fu must have improved a great deal. Maybe even surpassing mine! Old Poison, you never say what you think! If you said I was better, then you must think you are better! But I don't think so! Let them recite their books and let us go a round. How about that? Great. I'll give my life to a chivalrous man like you. But I'm not a chivalrous man! You'll give your life to fight with a beggar! Their kung fu is at their pinnacle, and it'll be difficult to determine who is the winner within a thousand rounds. Please come here. Sit down and don't play any pranks. Who is first? Me! Guo, please stand aside first. Heaven knows of the loss, the surplus and the inadequate. So the triumph in reality is insufficient victory. You think it's strange. This old man's kung fu is called "Toad." Save your words. Therefore for hollow breath... when it lacks... The form and spirit... harmony, regulate your breath What?
Can't remember anymore? That means the body to be in perfect harmony. Not a sound from mouth but a divine heart. Not a fragrance through nose and the soul in... in... in... lt's not bad that you can recite this much. Your turn. Heaven knows the loss, the surplus and the inadequate. So the triumph in reality is insufficient victory. Achievements may seem deficient but it's not so. Something exultant may seem flushed but it isn't so. So you breathe out the air in your lungs. In such a way that it's hollow. And then you will ... Use the lungs instead of nose to breathe. Stay relaxed and focus your spirit on spleen. That's primarily what we know as the 'vital Qi.' Dear wife, is your spirit really appearing? To choose being reduced to ashes, aeration is forthe soul. Apotheosis is for Heaven; it's for topmost three flowers. The manual Mei Chao Feng lost is in your hands? I don't know where it is. If I knew, I would definitely return it to Master. You still call me Master? Father-in-law. I give Rong-erto you in marriage. You have to treat her well. Brother Hung! Brother Feng! You are six of one, half dozen of the other. No need to fight.
Jing-er won this round. He is the son-in-law chosen by my late wife. I've nothing more to say. Jing-er could really recite the book? You've got what you want. Look how giddy you are! THE THREAT Well Mr. Savin, wanna buy these 3 trucks? I'll check my account first. Sorry. You're alright? Come on. Damn. What're you doing? Are you crazy? -See this truck Mr. Belloc? -Yeah. It is Montlaur's property. But Montlaur doesn't work. Our contract is over. Finished. -Ask another company. -What? Because of this Portuguese? -I didn't know. He's the driver who did it. -Sure you knew. -What? -Come on!
I know, I can't prove it. Be careful, Belloc. Keep me out of your shit, I warn you. It won't work. I'm happy. We lost a customer but I'm very happy. -Yesterday I broke with Belloc. -You did well. They already tried to cheat me with a smuggling job in Canada. -You're alright, Dominique? -Yes, I'm fine. I think Verillon is the best to replace me. Alright. I'll help him to get up-to-date. Savin will start with 3 trucks. Why 3 trucks? The trucks you tried. I bought them. Volvo? Baumer please. Baumer? It is Savin. I changed my mind. Sell them again! -But you liked them! I'm not for sale, dammit! Miss Julie Manet? Doctor Canselier? You're afraid, eh?
You still love me. No, Dominique. No. I like you. But I don't love you. Don't come back again. -Bastard! -Dominique, no! Listen! Listen to me! Don't cry. She must have a hard time. Beautiful, always rich... and now a defeat. As if she had lost everything. But it's not your fault. -Want some? -No thanks. Good, I'll keep it for later. You're right because from now on you'll feed me. I can't go on in the company. We'll manage. Of course. I'll start over again. At my age, imagine. I'll be late. -I'd like to see the house again. -Okay. Shall I take you? No, I finish early tonight.
I've some errands. Meet at the usual spot. At the citadel? -As you like. 8:30, right? -Ok, 8:30. See you tonight. 100.000, Miss Montlaur. Would you like entourage? -No thanks. See you tomorrow, M.Savin. Oh no! Shit! It's impossible! Can't you wait? Listen Paco! It's the third time in two months. Impossible. Where exactly? Ok, I'm coming. No sorry sir. Julie just left. Thank you. -Well? -There you are, Savin. At last. -Where is the truck? -Half an hour walk from here. Let's go. What happened? Gisèle again?
Yes... And this time it's final. Anything happening? Paco! Where's he? Come on. Get up. I'll get a crane truck. Excuse me, Miss Manet. I know you didn't expect me. What do you want? Nothing. Just have a look at you. You're very beautiful. Even close-up. What're you doing? One of us too much. -You're crazy! -I don't think so! Pick it up. -Open it! -No. 10 millions! Take them leave us alone! You're crazy! Little cunt! I made Henri! But I gave him a child! -He moves? -Not yet!
I'll make him move! Get up! -Saw the time? -I couldn't care less. We'll talk about it tomorrow. Henri... I don't wanna lose my license. No way. Sleep now. My darling... She almost killed me! Tell me what happened. Calm down. Don't be afraid. Dominique? Someone wants to meet you. M. Savin? Detective Waldeck. We just found Miss Montlaur's corpse. At the Citadel. She fell to death yesterday at exactly 9.15pm. Her body is full of bruises. Maybe she was pushed. Spent the night here? -No, I was at Julie Manet's. -Your mistress? I'm not married. What time were you with her? At dinner? Around 9:00pm I think.
-There was an issue with a truck. -What truck? A driver had an accident. But what does this mean, M.? Good. Can I talk to this driver? Yes, he should still be at our depot. See you, then... Julie, it's me. Dominique died yesterday at 9.15pm. How could you think so? I tell you, everyone will think you did it. What'll you tell the police? That you had an argument? Dominique Montlaur jumped to death only to annoy you? Listen... No one will believe it was suicide. Listen carefully... listen... Don't say you met her yesterday. Not by any means. -What time did he leave? -9.15pm. You're quite precise. I was worried if I wasted his time. -You have a watch? -No. But I slept under the clock. I was forced to see it. Detective Waldeck.
-Miss Manet? -Yes. -You were on your way? -No. Why? -Your friend's mistress is dead. -Mistress? -My friend's... -Henri Savin and Miss Montlaur. His partner is dead? Yesterday evening. -You spent the night with M. Savin? -Yes. Here. From when to when? 9:00pm to...this morning -9:00pm, sure? -Yes. I think so. Listen... I just come from Montlaur's depot. It took 30 min. with no traffic. Yesterday M. Savin left at 9.15pm. You're worried? You say 9:00pm. I say it's impossible before 9:45pm. Good bye. There was also a smaller car. It stopped there. It drove off very fast, this way.
Have a look. Tire tracks. Waldeck, come here! What is it? Look. Paint marks. Hello Bruno. Check who of Miss Montlaur's friends own a small car. It's a red car. Scratched at one side. No, I don't come yet. I need a breath. I owe you two phone calls. -So it's a crime? -If someone asks, say I'm on it. Well, if you take that tone with me... -So you saw something? -No, I saw nothing. 3 francs. Keep the change. A red Austin, 9:15pm, fast. That's what I saw. Miss... -This is the last time I ask you. Did you go to the Citadel? -No. You're leaving? -No. You work in traveling clothes? What is this?
Maurice! Get the young lady. Can you stand up? May I sit again? On the contrary. Aren't you well? Yes. -You're pregnant? -Yes. -How far? -Second month. I'm going to marry M. Savin. I'll be back. 10 millions? -That afternoon? -She took out 10 millions, yes. -She used to take that much? -Never. Small amounts only. She paid by cheque normally. It's getting strange. I'll see the judge. You persist to deny the evidence of your presence at scene. The 10 millions disappeared that day. How can't we conclude a crime? "Take my lover for the money." -And the fight begins. -This is pointless... Henri Savin made me pregnant. A perfect blackmail motive.
But Henri didn't want to marry Dominique Montlaur. Ask him. I'll ask him tomorrow morning. Meanwhile I'm forced to charge you. Yes, thanks. It's me. How "I inherit..."? Yes, I'm coming. Waldeck! A new one? Not bad, huh? Listen. Henri Savin... He inherits Dominique Montlaur. Everything. Think like me... He made a deal with Julie Manet. -Montlaur's fortune is worth the crime. -Listen... If they both agree in court he's done. Alibi or not... I'll come and get you. I'll meet the judge. The judge is waiting. So you were not at the Citadel and left the tire marks with your car? I don't know. And the scratches on your neck? Who made them? Henri. You also fought with him?
No, not at all. We made love, that night. The scratches on her neck? Yes, I noticed them at once. I asked her who made them. She said her cat did it, when she tried to caress it. Henri and I found a house by the Gironde. To live together. Yes, we visited a house. But to live alone, for her. How she wanted to pay it... Henri and Dominique broke up before I got pregnant. Dominique and I wanted to get married. Therefore she changed her will. Henri knew that I was pregnant! Therefore he wanted his own company. Julie was just a whim, nothing serious. She threatened to tell Dominique. She'd ruined everything. The inheritance won't work. They don't behave like accomplices. Or everyone tries to save his own skin... I don't agree. She wouldn't give in so easy. But I'll confront them. We'll see. And if she continues? Then you were right. She saw her chance in the troubled relationship. Too bad for her.
What do you want? Ruin my life? Why do you dispute everything I say? Who says it's my child? Why all these lies? You just want to save your skin. Your honour, why should I make up this nonsense? Tell us... Who waited at the Citadel? You! Not me. Please, M. Savin. I'm sorry, Your honour. Enough is enough. Use the backdoor. The press is outside. -But the car's there. -Take it back. I'll distract them. See you later. Look if the car's there. Have you seen Savin? How he's looking? You'll have to take all charges. It'll get tough. Murder, kidnapping, abuse... 20 years minimum. Admit you worked together. I wasn't at the Citadel. You worked together before it got difficult. You love him so much?
Listen... I don't like to suspect you. Canada is a beautiful country. Why did you come back? I was homesick. -I'm at Maison des Vignes if you need me. -Very well, sir. Well, then? I need to check Mme Montlaur's accounts. -Are you an accountant also? -No. An expert will come tomorrow. Good bye sir. Canada, Vancouver 1955. Savin owns a truck workshop. What does he mean with homesick? It's about a stolen truck found in his workshop. -Has he done time already? -No. He's innocent as a lamb. 10 millions and I disappear. Tomorrow at the Citadel. 8:30pm. I'd feel lonely in such a house. How much worth is all this? A fortune. I tell you later. Sir, my typewriter's on strike. May I call the service? No. Order a new one.
It's too expensive to repair. Here. Just take mine. Triumph Adler '58. Same like Savin's. Pretty rare. A collectible. -Paco! -Hi Henri. -What time is it? -Why? -Get your pay and go home. -Just 'cause I'm late? I said get your pay. -Do you feel at home? -I knocked. At whom? Today...? At a queer, three Arabs and two communists. -And now a truck driver. -Ex truck driver. -But you're Savin's friend, no? -Very good friend. You like a drink, Paco? -Never. C'mon Paco... Wanna keep it secret, huh? Has Gisèle left? Don't mention my wife. She's gone cause she wanted to go.
Some people get totally ripped off. I don't usually drink either. The truck that night, was the Pastis driving it? It was the morning Gisèle left. I drank myself sick. Until Savin came to get you. -You were... hanging around in town... -I just slept. Then he woke me up and told me how late it was. How late was it? -9:15pm. I remember well. He urged me to see it. The fuckin' bastard... Savin. You were right. It's completely ruined. -What shall we do with it? -On the trash over there. -Well, what's wrong? -The shaft is out of balance. -Can't you replace it? -Only if I unscrew the swivel. -Isn't Paul here? -He's in the depot. Well detective? May I see the books again? Go to the office. The secretary is there. -Do you have my inkpot?
-No, sir. The right one's from the inkpot. The left one's from the clock. They're identical. Circles, curves, small pit. Doubtless. The clock and the inkpot were touched by the same person. Does Savin repair clocks too? I'm Savin. I'm in this office. Julie's waiting for me. Paco calls me up. I hurry to the truck. 8:00pm, Paco's dead drunk. I take him with me. I don't even try to save the truck. I drive directly to the depot. It's only 8:20pm. I go on the roof. I adjust the clock. The fingermarks. I wake up Bruno who believes it's 9:15pm. I have an alibi. I hurry up. 8:30pm. I have spare keys. I take Julie's red Austin. Direction Citadel to meet with Dominique. The anonymous letter. 9:00pm
I'm Savin, I'm at the Citadel. I push Dominique. She fights back, she scratches me. That's it, I go back. What did the guy see? Julie's red Austin? 9:35pm. I find Julie. We make love, quite violently... I scratch her. And tomorrow I'll be rich. And the cops have an ideal suspect... Julie. Julie Manet, you've a visitor! I hope I don't bother you. I've no right to come here. I wanted to tell you, Julie... That I believe... I can help you get out. It's a question of time... Julie... Thank you. Well, a typewriter disappears, a drunkard gets fired... Scratches on trucks... Savin has maybe made them himself. A broken clock... Savin's an innocent lamb, I know. Not too bad? I say "Not too bad"? Nothing broken?
Good. That's good. No. Stay there. Find the owner of that R5. Rented this morning by Henri Savin. What was he looking for there? Still nothing. Here. That's all for now. Waldeck. Phonecall from Paris. Yes it's me. Thank you. Savin's on the passenger list to Montréal. Right now...somewhere over the Atlantic. -Interpol... can bust him at arrival. -For what? Because he beat up a Gironde cop? I have no fucking shit against him! No evidence at all. -It was in the trunk. -Give it to him. Take care of his personal stuff. Quick. Call Paris. Savin shall be busted at Montréal airport. Yes, I'll hold on. I'll get the latest news. The passengers checked out half an hour ago.
JULIE MANET INNOCENT HENRI SAVIN ON THE RUN IN CANADA It's not your fault, Waldeck, we can't predict everything. But don't worry... Savin has left with money, he'll resurface... and make new mistakes. And a Canadian Waldeck will arrest him. I don't think so. Considering his panic about... the shirt button we should never have found. He could die of fear anytime. Only in death he can rest. Yes? Hold on please. For you. Yes, it's me. Yes, my love. I'll be there. Yes. HENRI SAVIN VANISHES IN A TANK TRUCK EXPLOSION Subtitles: TheHugeAnimalFromTheNorth (Helena) 'Moonbase Alpha status report, '2,012 days after leaving Earth orbit. 'Dr Helena Russell recording. 'It is three weeks since we sighted the space phenomenon we call Tora. 'Within 24 hours, we shall know whether it is a habitable planet. 'But hopes have been raised before 'and since Commander Koenig doesn't want to raise hopes again, 'he has ordered the people who know the situation to keep it secret. 'Command Center is off limits to all but a few chosen personnel.' (Sighs) The picture's gone! We should know what's happening. Something is. Command Center's off limits, screens are blank.
We're approaching a planet. A habitable planet. - I'm sure of it! - You've predicted it before. These things take time to work out. But why is Koenig keeping it from us? I can guess. But why should we guess? Let's find out. ..he's the craziest guy, he came up to the redhead. - What's her name...? - I don't know. (Beeping) Sure you do! The redhead... What, you got something? Tora, it's shifting position. Maya, instruments show a change of position. Can that be correct? Sensors record internal energy that has caused a change in position. (Koenig) 'Keep tracking it.' You know Commander Koenig's orders. Command Center's off limits. Well, if those are his orders... it's time they were changed. Don't tell me, I shouldn't be here, right? ! Well, I am here. And I want to find out what's on that screen. You're off limits, Sanderson! Eva, open the big screen.
Shut the doors. (Sanderson) Like I said - a planet! But is it habitable? We'll need another astro-prediction. Get prepared. Eva, turn off the computers. Concentrate. Concentrate. Total...concentration. (All) Total...concentration. Total...concentration. Total...concentration. - It can't be! - It is. We've got to get back immediately. Eagle Four to Moonbase Alpha. 'Koenig to Command Center. Respond! ' - ..with trees and grass... - 'Command Center, do you read me? 'Calibration shows Tora and Moonbase Alpha on a direct collision course! - 'Red Alert! ' - I see a habitable planet... 'Repeat - Red Alert! ' and grass! It's a habitable planet! The prediction was right - it's a habitable planet!
Come on. What happened? It's Sanderson. He's in there. (Shouting from inside) Sanderson! My prediction was right! Sanderson! Stand back. A habitable planet! Trees and grass! The astro-prediction was right! It's a habitable planet! It's a...! Get a medical team here right away! (Beeping) - How is she? - She'll be fine. (Groaning) - Helena... What is it? - Autohypnosis. As far as I'm concerned, it's criminal. It's green sickness. You know the symptoms. - Is mutiny one of the symptoms? - It could be. - I have to take responsibility. - Responsibility for what? Mutiny?
Surface Exploration Units like Sanderson's have it rougher than us. Living out there alone having nothing to look at but bare rock for a month - they're paying the price. I should have seen it coming. None of the other teams reacted this way. Sanderson's team has done more and stayed out longer, and the other teams are beginning to show signs. I'll have to limit surface exploration to 15 days at a time. All right. Confine Sanderson and his team to Medical. Under guard! (Koenig) What've we got? Internal energy... electrical storms... rain, sleet... an atmosphere. A vast weather belt, in fact. Could we travel through it? (Maya) If it doesn't clog our recycling systems. There may be a solid centre. Which could mean a planet. Sanderson's habitable planet? Let's hope Maya's instruments are wrong. If Tora's got a hard core and we're on a collision course, God help us. (Koenig) Alan, prepare an Eagle. - Right. - Maya, come with me. (Helena) You have a condition we've termed "green sickness." That's a convenient fiction, a neat way to cover Koenig's lies! Listen to me. You were one of the first people assigned to Alpha and psychological pressures have built up in you. I don't buy that, Doctor. You want to marry.
Want children. Your life's slipping away. - And the others? - They follow your leadership. You're the best exploration team leader that we have. You've pulled them all out of trouble...a hundred times. - They rely on you. - (Ringing) But you're failing them now, Greg! - You're behaving irrationally! - I'm going to see Koenig! You can't. You're confined here. - Who's confining me? - Security! - 'Sanderson's on his way! ' - (Door opens) - Hold it, Sanderson. - Where's Koenig? Where is he? Right here! You were confined to Medical. Sure, so no one hears what I have to say about the new planet. There is no new planet. So far, it's just a weather belt until we explore it and maybe find something. And when you find it? IF we find it, I'll determine if it's habitable. There IS a habitable planet, but you'll come back denying it! Sanderson, why would I do that? Because you can't stand the thought of us having a normal life!
In a normal life, we'd make our own decisions, have children, vote. And there'd be no place for Commander Koenig's dictatorship. That's why you won't tell us. If there's a planet out there, everyone on Alpha will be told. Some people may buy that, but I don't! Once you're up there, how can we be sure what the computer's saying? All right. All right. Every piece of data from Tora will be processed here through computer. So everyone on Alpha will see as it happens on their screens. - How does that suit you? - That I'll buy. Put that Eagle on the pad ready for lift-off. Right. Prepare Eagle One for lift-off. - (Man) 'Right.' - Stand up! So you're beating up the guards now? - What is the matter with you? - He's sick, Tony! Sick? No! I just see clearer than the rest of you. Oh, yeah(? ) Well, all you'll see from now on will be via the monitors of the Restriction Area. Get him out! He needs treatment, Tony. I want him back in Medical. OK, but I want him constantly under guard.
And properly this time! Take him away! (Koenig) 'Eagle One to Alpha, on course for Tora.' What we're dealing with here is an extreme manifestation of tension. As stress builds it results in disorientation and hallucination. - As in my case? - Yes. No, "Doctor"! Let's complete the treatment and then see if you're so certain. - What about Eva? - Oh, she's free to go. She's not hallucinating. She's in love. You heard what Dr Russell said - you're free to go. So go. I'll be in my quarters. (Beep) Medical emergency. Recycling plants one and two. (Tony) 'What's happening, Helena? ' I'll let you know as soon as I find out. George? (Groans) (Groans) - Range? - Range counter seven. How far in do you want to go? Not so far in that we can't pull out at the first sign of gravitation. Got a reading?
Nothing to indicate a planet, but there could be anything in the centre of all that. All right, let's hook up to main computer. Ready on main computer? Ready to receive data. 'No gravitational trace. Clear to approach range three.' Range two. What have you got, San? First atmospheric indications - high density, high carbon dioxide content, unbreathable. 'Are we still clear on gravitational pull? ' Getting a slight tremor here. Could be atmospheric vibration or the beginning of a gravity pull. Watch it, John, you could get sucked in. 'I'm coming into range Confirm negative indications. 'We turn back at confirmation of a gravity pull.' We've got to make him go all the way! Make him find that planet. - But the atmosphere's unbreathable. - Of course it is! At the outer limits, it's like Earth. The tremor's gone, Maya. Looks like you're clear to go in. (Beeping) Zero gravity? I can't believe it. Something's wrong. Let me switch to the onboard computer. Everyone will think we're holding back information. We stay with main computer.
Get Tony. 'You're clear to approach, John. Zero gravity. Repeat, zero gravity.' That's impossible. Get him back. Tony, run a systems check. - You must be wrong! - 'OK.' Approaching range one. Circuit one - OK. Circuit two - OK. Powerlines one through to 10 - OK. Circuit three - malfunction! 'Computer malfunction. Turn back! ' 'Turn back, John! Turn back! ' It's too late! Now you'll have to find that planet, Commander! (Tony) 'Turn back, Eagle One. Do you read me? ' (Maya) Commander, it's the planet! Come in, John Maya!
Respond, please! Moonbase Alpha to Eagle One. Moonbase Alpha to Eagle One. Come in, please! (Coughing) Maya, are you all right? (Coughing) Yeah. Get the helmets! They're both...damaged. Let's get out of here, seal this off. Come on! - Still operational? - I...think...so. We'd better check the oxygen. Our oxygen recycling plant is less than five per cent effective - insufficient to maintain life. 'John, Maya - are you receiving me? ' Yes, Tony. 'Command Center to Eagle One. Are you receiving me? ' Transmission system's not functioning. - No response? - No, nothing. I have a reading on the damage. Pressure hull pierced, transmission silenced, oxygen recycler damaged. Engines and guidance systems intact. Intact? Alan, could you pull them out on the remote control? I'll give it a try.
(Beeping) Yeah? 'Security. We've checked levels C, D, B. No sign of Sanderson.' - How about level A? - 'That was cleared first.' Start again from square one. I want Sanderson found! Ah! I'm getting feedback from Eagle One. I'm firing forward thrusters. They've got us on automatic! They're trying to get us out. Come on, baby! Come on! It's a three-hour flight back. We haven't got enough oxygen! Sit down. Vegetation will create oxygen! Lift-off! We have lift-off! But a plant needs the sun for the photosynthesis process, to can turn carbon dioxide into oxygen. Or something that fakes the sun, like a bright light. Ready, launch pad one. Damaged Eagle. Alert rescue units. Emergency, fire and decontamination units to Eagle hanger bay one! Stretcher unit to Eagle hanger bay one! 'Surgical team to Medical Center immediately.' OK, San, bring down the launch pad.
Command Center to launch area. Lower Eagle One to launch bay. What is it? Where did all this vegetation come from? Maya! Maya? - Are you all right? - Yes. - What happened? - It's oxygen starvation, Helena. The atmosphere couldn't support us. With oxygen deprivation we can tell fast if there's been brain damage. He wakes up wondering what the worried faces are worrying about. John? Do you hear me? John, do you know who I am? I never saw you before in my life. Dr Russell. That'll do. While we were concentrating on you, Sanderson sabotaged the main computer. - Where is he? - In travel tube D. If we try to get near, he'll mow us down. San, get me travel tube four, section D. Sanderson, listen to me! 'If you hear me, let me know. We have no time to lose. - 'We're on a collision course.' - So there's a planet?
'Yes, but in the earliest stages of formation.' We've arrived 50 million years too early. (Sanderson) 'You're lying.' It's not habitable, just a weather belt! - "Just a weather belt"(? ) - 'With a core of dust.' we've been on your team from the beginning. You've gotten us out of some tight spots. - What are you saying? - What we both feel, Sanderson. On the moon we'd never question your judgement. Plenty of times it's the only way we've stayed alive. - But? - But...now we're just not so sure. The Commander may be telling the truth. He's lying! He's just trying to make us give up! On our present course, we'll be drawn into orbit round Tora. 'There is no orbit! We'll be swallowed by a swamp of dust! ' No! There is a habitable planet. The prediction says so! We've got to get through to him in time. - How? - Maya, how long do we have? (Computer beeping) On our present course, we'll collide in eight hours. Eight hours. Tony, is there any way we can alter Tora's trajectory?
No, we just don't have the megatons. - OK. Then we go round it. - Yeah, alter the moon's course. The way this whole thing started. When the nuclear waste blew up. You'll trigger the atomic waste? No, some of it. We'll create an explosion to shift the moon a few degrees. That could work. If we had an atomic trigger and some luck! Maya, get me a damage forecast on a sudden two-degree shift. Anticipate severe damage in all sections. High fire risk. And people? Forecast zero survival rate. Attention Moonbase personnel. 'We are faced with the huge risk of blasting the moon out of its course. 'To minimise the risk, I am ordering immediate evacuation.' - Just to stay in command! - Suppose he's telling the truth? Trust me, like you trusted me before. Concentrate! Concentrate. Concentrate. (All) Total...concentration. Total...concentration. We'd better take that along to be on the safe side. Maya? - (Bleeping)
- Yes, Helena? 'Is it really worth taking all this stuff with us? ' If we can't shift the Moon's course, those Eagles will be our home. 'How long are we gonna survive on a fleet of Eagles? 'We'll be at each other's throats.' A lot of Alphans said the same when we split from Earth. 'If the chips are on the table, we're still in the game.' Right on. 'All essential equipment's onboard. 'Boarding's complete, apart from pads six and nine. 'Ready for lift-off in nine minutes.' - Sanderson and the others? - 'Still in the travel tube.' Sanderson, you know the danger of staying here when we trigger the waste dumps. This is your last chance. You can still reach a boarding station and be evacuated. Respond, Sanderson! 'It's the last chance for all of you! 'Sanderson, listen to me! 'Sanderson! Eva! Cernik! Stevens! 'This is your last chance! ' He won't do it! He'll never trigger the waste pits while we're here. Suppose you're wrong about this habitable planet? I'm not wrong.
Just suppose, for a moment, Koenig is telling the truth. To save Moonbase he'll have to trigger the atomic waste, whether we're here or not. I have information, Eva. I have the predictions. For the sake of every Alphan, we must go through with this. Cernik! Stevens! Dr Russell diagnoses a sickness. She says we all have it. A sickness where our wish for the green planet is so strong, our decisions are distorted. Do you believe that...or me? Sanderson, don't you see? We're just not sure any more. After all we've faced together, suddenly you're not sure any more! But this is different. It's got to be different. How "different?" You talk about the new planet. You talk about freedom from John Koenig's command. I say let's start now, the four of us. Let's vote on what we do. - Vote? - Why not? Koenig's the dictator, not you. - Eva? - I think we should vote. All right. All those in favour of evacuation? I'm sorry. Don't you understand that we have a responsibility to the others?
We just took a vote! Do you abide by it? Koenig! We're coming out. Good. The last Eagle lifts off in five minutes. Evacuation complete. Two hours 23 minutes to collision. Let's get in position. 'John - trouble! I checked the boarding lists. 'Sanderson's still on Moonbase.' (Tony) 'Sanderson, there are two hours 20 minutes to collision point! ' To orbit, understand? ! And then we use the transporters to transfer everyone to the new planet. We'll be swallowed by dust and toxic gases. - Sanderson, I'm coming down. - There's no time! Stay there. Make one move to bring that transporter down and Maya won't be Maya any more! Get on that computer. I want to know when we go into orbit. If Tora's atmosphere gets in our air will be lethal. The air is clear on Tora! Fresh and...pure... and there's water. 'Eva, you've got to persuade him. It's their only chance.'
'Put the gun away, Greg. Please. 'You were wrong. We were all wrong. 'Cernik, Stevens, all of us.' You'll thank me for holding out against them. We'll walk on that planet breathing real air, not recycled survival gases! Walking on grass, by trees, streams. - The prediction! - 'It's wrong, Greg! 'Dr Russell is right. It's an hallucination, a mirage.' You, too, Eva. You've gone over to Koenig's side. You know why he's doing it! He has to, to keep us on this barren rock! 'You're wrong, Greg, it's all in your mind! Greg... please do what the Commander wants. Before all this happened you believed in him. Believe in him now! 'Believe in him? I've never believed in him! ' - Tony, - 'Yeah' Eva can't get through to him. I'm going down. 'No, hold your position. That's an order.' He's lied to us all along and he's still lying now!
And for that he's got to die! Maya, get the gun! (Koenig) Fire! Why didn't you fire? I couldn't. It was jammed on kill. We've got less than two hours to set the atomic trigger. Well, there they are, the nuclear waste silos. Each of those shafts is 10,000 feet deep and capped with concrete. We'll have to blast one of those concrete caps away, to lower the atomic trigger. - ETA to collision point? - 57 minutes. Magnify. What is that thing? (Helena) I don't know. - Magnify, damn it! - I am trying! Alan, there's something on the surface. Can you identify it from your position? - 'Can you give me any co-ordinates? ' - I've got it! (Helena) It's a moon buggy! It's Sanderson! John, Sanderson's down there waiting for you! Do you read me? Sanderson is waiting for you. He is amongst the rocks, but I cannot pinpoint him from here. - Get that, John? - Yeah, Tony, got it.
Thanks. - How're we doing? - OK. (Helena) It's gonna be hard to pick him out. (Carter) 'We shouldn't be up here away from the action.' I know how you feel. We can't risk anybody else. - 'Sanderson is down there.' - I know that! If and when we pinpoint him, we'll go down after him. - Setting? - (Koenig) 18 minutes. Is that enough time? That's all the time we've got. Four minutes to blast away the cap, two minutes to attach this device to the silo and get back here and 12 minutes to blast ourselves as far away from here as we can get. - Good luck. - I'll need it. No sign of him. He's down there somewhere. (Koenig) 'I'm at the silo now.' (Maya) We have no visual of Sanderson. Continuing to scan. (Tony) 'Eagle Three to Eagle Six. Any movement in area three, Alan? ' (Carter) 'Eagle Six. Nothing so far, Tony. 'Will continue searching.' - 'Can you see anything, Maya? ' - 'Nothing, Tony.'
- 'Sweep co-ordinate 2:4.' - 'Right.' (Koenig) 'Connecting charges now.' (Tony) 'Keep an eye out, John. Sanderson's around somewhere.' (Koenig) 'All clear, Tony.' Aerial rigged for detonation. (Carter) 'Eagle Six to Eagle Three, no sign of Sanderson. 'Recheck your area, Tony.' (Tony) 'Maya, three o'clock! 'Maya? Maya, can you hear me? 'John, Eagle Two's been hit. I've lost contact with Maya.' Tony, keep trying. OK, the cap's blown. Going in to lay the atomic trigger now. (Tony) 'Watch Sanderson.' (Carter) 'John, look out! ' (Tony) 'Eagle Two, come in! Come in, please, Maya! 'It's Tony. Can you hear me? What's the damage? ' (Sanderson groans) (Tony) 'Maya, answer me! Eagle Two, do you read me? 'Maya, come in, please! '
Atomic trigger in position. (Groans) (Tony) 'Are you all right? ' (Groans) (Tony) 'You're running out of time! ' (Ticking) (Screams) (Tony) 'John, get out of there! ' - 'John, are you OK? ' - OK, Tony. What's the damage on Eagle Two? (Carter) 'No report. We can't raise Maya. - 'Get out of there! ' - OK. I'm on my way. (Tony) 'This is Eagle Six calling Eagle Two. 'Come in, Eagle Two. 'Maya, can you hear me? 'Maya, this is Tony. Answer me! Come in, Maya. 'Eagle Two, come in, please! ' (Koenig) Maya!
Maya! Maya! - 'How is she, John? ' - Don't know yet, Tony. Maya! Open up! Maya! Maya! The door's jammed. Open on manual! I'm trapped! - We've got four minutes, Maya! - I can't reach the controls! Four minutes. They're not going to make it. (Ticking) John, lean on it! The moon has changed course. We're not on collision course. - What do you think? - Looks good. I've never seen so many bored people! - Doctor, how much longer? - Another hour and a half. - (Groans) - Oh, come on. It's not bad. They're quite nice, Particularly if you have an eye for nature. As I say, if you have an eye for nature.
- Will your system work? - The principle's valid. Saturation equals boredom. You show 'em trees and meadows, until they can't stand it, right? Well, as you said, if you like nature, Doctor. So I did! (Carter) You said choose something from the picture library. That is what I call choice! Oh, mother! (Carter) My mother was never like that! EDITH: I've said it before. No! You stay here. What can you be thinking of? All there is to do here, and you talk of riding off to find Tom? Charles will find him. That's why he went. Now, go and finish those billhooks we need for the forge. Ain't got no iron. How do you suppose I'd manage with you two gone as well? They want to ride off. Hmm. To find Tom, they said. -Charles is doing that. -That's what I said. Charles has been gone for 10 days. How much longer are we supposed to wait? -He had a gun.
-A real bigshot, eh? Provisions, maps, a good horse. I've lost one son already. -And if you two go as well... -We'll come back! Even if we don't find Tom. Hasn't it got through to you yet? What? Nobody who leaves here comes back. Not even your Charles. (WHISTLING) We should never have let him go. Someone had to look for Tom. One of the boys should have gone. He's their brother, after all. I would rather trust Charles to find him than those two. Finding Edith's eldest son isn't really our concern. We've recovered their farm and got rid of Brod. I did that. Lot of thanks I got. -We all appreciate it, Hubert. -There's one that didn't. -But if it hadn't been for me... -Yes, yes. We know, Hubert. I bloody wishes I was with him now. If he hasn't been eaten by dogs, that is. (WHISTLING) (LAUGHS) If they can't get organised here on their own, they never will.
Every day we're stuck here, Greg could be getting further and further away. This is the only place we have found where they manage to produce more than they need. There's enough wool in this loft from last summer's shearing to clothe hundreds of people. Enough cheese is stored as well. Unless they can soon exchange it for the things they want they'll let it all run down. Well, why not send Steve and Owen to find people to trade with? (SCOFFS) They do little enough here. Steve and Owen don't care. You know that. Sitting around with their bows and arrows, wishing they could ride with Brod again. They could be making tools we need in a forge. They're just not interested. They'll settle down again once Tom gets... Tom? I'm sick and tired of hearing about Tom. -You never met him. -True. But he's as practical as Greg. He found this place at the time of the plague, rounded up all the sheep he could find, gathered together a herd of cattle. Well, we can't just abandon everything he started. We have to find Greg! And we will. But there are more important things. (GROANS) Jenny! People in my country are starving. (COW MOOING) What is the matter with you, Betty, me old love, eh? She kept lifting her tail just now.
Eh? Did she? Well, it is swelled up. How long has she been in calf, then? You'd better ask Edith. No, you had. Go on. She's starting. Find out if she should have. Don't fret, me old darling. We'll do all we can for you. But Betty's not due for another three months. AGNES: You could easily have got that wrong. Are you sure it's not one of the other cows? No, it's Betty. Just started, Hubert says. Well, if she's going to start early, it could happen again. Again? Last calf we had was born dead. -Well, when was that? -Last month, on Brod's place. Well, that's not surprising, the way things were there. Well, what's so worrying about a stillborn calf? It's happened before. That's why it's worrying. Two abortions in a row. And left to herself, she'd eat her own afterbirth. They like the taste of it. And it will all start up again.
What would start up again? -Brucol... -Brucellosis? That's right. What she said. Could be that. Charles is coming up, from the river. -Charles? -I'll go, Jenny. HUBERT: Hold the end steady just once more. -He's back? -Yeah, on foot. -Charles! -(LAUGHS) Hello, Agnes! Are you all right? -We've been so anxious. -Oh, I'm just tired, that's all. -You're not ill? -No, not now. -What happened? -Plenty. -Did you find Tom? -No. But I met a few people who had news of Greg. -Where is he? -Oh, it wasn't enough to lead me to him. Well, what's been happening here? Oh, all sorts of things. Edith is inside.
She'll tell you about it. She's making soup, I think it's carrot. Well, that's the lot. Well, at least the mother's free of it now. HUBERT: Can't be sure of that. She didn't touch her calf or the placenta. I'll go and scrub out the cowshed. Isolate her, Hubert, in case she gets infected again by the others. A bit late for that. She could be the only healthy cow we've got left. Could have been just a bad calving. And there's no news at all of Tom? I'm sorry. I need him, Charles. I need him here. Come on, let's go inside. Rabies? If it's all going rabid out there as well... It's just something else we have to contend with, Jenny. Now, Charles, what about this man who said he'd seen Greg? Oh, that was weeks ago. He said he was looking into the possibilities of some open cast mining about 30 miles from here. Well, then we must go there. I tried to find him for you, Jenny, but he'd moved on. Anyway, we can't go anywhere yet. Well, the cows will be all right. Once they've aborted, they've got rid of the disease, surely. Then it'll be a year before any of our bullocks are ready to serve them. Mmm.
If Brod hadn't taken our bull. Oh, I think I saw him this afternoon. They boys could recapture it. Our whole livelihood depends on those cows. Can humans catch it? Well, it's possible. It's not fatal. Hubert's the one most likely to have picked it up. So keep away from him. Hey, watch it! I should keep out of there, if I were you. -But you're not bothered. -Oh, I'm used to it, aren't I? I'm the one that does other people's dirty work for them, aren't I? -You got back safely, then? -I managed. Who was your guardian angel this time? Hubert, look. I know from every rational point of view, you did right to kill Brod. But you must understand that for me, well, it takes a bit of getting used to. I'm sorry. Better not. You might get infected. With the cow disease, I mean. How do you know it's a disease, then? We don't but we're not taking any chances, lad. Well, there's one man who could tell us, isn't there? Perhaps Owen and I should ride out and find him? EDITH: Bill Sheridan?
He's much too far away. -You and Tom rode over there once. -It's out of the question. Look, first, you won't let us go and find Tom, and then you won't let us go and find the one man who'll help you to save your stupid cattle. Bill's not a vet. He just knows about homeopathic medicine. -How could he vaccinate? -Well, perhaps he could cure. Are these the people you told us about before? Yeah, they're miles away. Two days at least. -Well, the boys will be all right. -They'd not come back. AGNES: You said that about Charles. He wanted to come back. They don't. -STEVE: Oh, of course we do. -You've done nothing! Ever since we got back here. We guarded the sheep. Well, that was quite important, wasn't it? You're looking for any excuse to ride off. You're not interested in making a success of this farm. Is it true what she says, Steve? Come on, Owen, better go and calm her down. (SIGHS) Edith is right. They're Brod's boys at heart. -Then I'll go...
-CHARLES: Oh, Jenny! ...by boat. That's what we were going to do before, wasn't it? Keep to midstream and I'll be safe enough. Jenny, if anybody goes, the boys go. And if they don't come back? You'll not leave Edith to cope on her own? And you'll not leave her with a useless herd of cattle, either. -That's true. -So the sooner we get the vet, the sooner we can get on after Greg. (SIGHS) JENNY: I could have gone on my own. CHARLES: Nobody should ever go anywhere on their own. JENNY: You did. CHARLES: It's a mistake I learnt from. JENNY: It didn't have to be you to come. Look, Jenny, I got reasons of my own for coming along. So don't get the idea I'm here just to protect you. Hmm. Thanks for the warning. (JENNY LAUGHING) (CHARLES EXCLAIMS IN DISAPPOINTMENT) You know, it's a long time since I heard you laugh. Well, it's a long time since there's been anything to laugh at.
It's getting better, Jenny. It's getting better all the time. Catch the bull? No one else here could possibly do it. It's in Brod's field but it may not stay there. So, if you and Owen ride out first thing... I thought you were afraid we might ride off for good? It's a risk I'll have to take. Steve, your mother needs you. If all our calves are going to be born dead, we need that bull. CHARLES: Ha! There I was, 20 miles from home, all by myself. Nothing to protect myself but that stick. Do you know, I was cold and I was wet and I felt exhilarated. -You felt what? -Exhilarated. I know it's something stupid. A bird was singing. That's jungle noises. That's Brod's jungle. Ah, but it's all ours, Jenny. You know that 30 miles to the northeast of here, there's a railway with a full working steam train on it? And coal they just spoon out of the ground beside it. -Is that the scene that Greg found? -Rivers that aren't polluted any more. Fish, timber, coal. All the fruits of the earth. -Just waiting, waiting for us. -Us?
Privileged, the lucky ones, those that survived. Oh, we should be exhilarated, Jenny. You know, we're so damned... lucky. It would help if you were a little more friendly to them. Young, healthy boys, you must have seen how they look at you. -I certainly have. -And what's wrong with that? Nice boys. They're almost your age. They way you cold-shoulder them, it's not surprising they're so restless. -I'm sorry, Agnes. -So you should be. -Why don't you come with us, then? -To catch a bull? We'd look after you. I bet you would. Then why not? OWEN: Perhaps Agnes would come too. If you like. Really? Well, isn't that great? What, as a nursemaid? We'll go on our own. -Mavis... -On our own, I said. STEVE: Well, don't look so worried. We'll come back, promise. OWEN:
Unless we're gored to death, that is. Or get a lucky break. Pick up a couple of birds at the local caff. Drop in at the pub. "Pint of export, please." "Let's go to the cinema." Sex and the Single Girl. (STEVE WHOOPS) I just don't want to have to spend another night on the river. You were all right last night, weren't you? Safe as houses. Take it easy. There's no rush. (ENGINE WHIRRING) What's that? -What? -Listen. It's a car. Can't be. It is. You know it is. Well, if it was a car, it's long gone by now. (SOFTLY) Charles! Hey. Did you hear anything just then? A car. (CHUCKLES) Impossible. That's what we thought. Where have you come from? Downriver.
JENNY: We're looking for a man called Bill Sheridan. Do you know him? Does he know you? He knows a friend of ours, Edith Walter. Well, you've got a good way to go to Bill Sheridan's house. You know it? I hope I've not forgotten my own home. Come on. Come on, cowboy. Give us a hand. I done my bit. I got that rope round that brute's neck. Up to you now. Fine brother you are. -Friends of who? -BILL: The Walters. BILL: You remember them? You rather fancied Tom Walter, as I remember. Oh, them. But they live miles away. No, it's just two days' row. -With the blisters to show for it. -Oh, where did you spend the night? -Anchored in midstream. -Oh! There you are. Nothing can harm you if you keep away from the banks.
Well, how did you meet the Walters? Oh, they rode by one day last summer, Edith and Tom. They said they had a mill down there. -On the lookout for anyone with grain. -Not that we could help. -We just grow enough for ourselves. -JENNY: Yes, most people do. How is Tom these days? Not bad-looking, is he? I don't know. I've not met him. Well, he's still looking for grain. He went off about three months ago. What, and hasn't come back? From what I can remember, Tommy can look after himself. He's as likely to be torn to pieces by the dogs as anyone, Bill. You know that. -Want to see my pharmacy? -Why, is one of you ill? Edith's having trouble with her cows. She thinks I can help. I hope it's nothing serious. We think it's brucellosis. Bill will give you something to give them. It's the beauty of homeopathic medicine, you do it yourself. No need to have a vet. She's from London. Her husband was a bus driver. She was carrying his child when I met her.
Where was that? Wandering about the M1. She'd been on a train from Derby till it came to a halt in mid-country. (CHUCKLING) Poor Alice, didn't know where she was. Now, then. -How many cows has Edith got? -Um, 20. -People? -Fifteen. Mmm. We had an outbreak of brucellosis ourselves in these parts some time ago. This is all I've got left. Uh, where did all this come from? Homeopathic pharmacy. That's where I was going when I met Alice. My wife had died and I had the baby in the car. I thought if I can get to that pharmacy I could save him. Do you understand about homeopathic medicine? The basics, yes. My parents were fanatics about it. I knew what I was looking for and as it seemed to have protected me from the plague... Oh, come along. Others survived, too. But not so many were quite so exposed to it as I was. I was an orderly in the county hospital. Till I found myself alone. Hmm. So, all of this came from that pharmacy? Well, most of it I've made up myself. I've got the distillery outside for the alcohol.
I grow what I want. Then I filch things from the woods and hedges on my rounds. Not that all this can be replaced. You don't know anybody with business in Whitstable, do you? Whitstable? Who could bring me back some oyster shells? Is that what this is made from? It's not all herbs and juices and poisons but it's all organic. Part of nature, like man. Maybe it was always the best medicine. Maybe not, but... Well, if you go to the x-ray department of the county hospital, the intensive care unit, or the fully computerised operating theatre, if you're looking for scrap metal, you'll find plenty there. There's no other use for it. Never will be. But this is growing all about us. Part of nature, like us. For our use, if enough people learn about it. Now, look, you said you had an outbreak of brucellosis before. Did you cure it? Well, unless they never had the disease in the first place, which is always possible. ALICE: Half the people who send for him don't need him. They just take advantage. Just how many people are there around here anyway? More than you'd think. Once it gets about you're a doc or a vet, you soon find out. They had him treating rabies the other day. And half of that was just imagination. Rabies? Where was that?
You've been treating rabies? Well, it turned out it wasn't as serious as they thought. -People will panic. -You're telling me. Charles was there. They hunted him like a mad dog. That was you? You heard? Yes. Let's have supper, shall we? We want to make an early start in the morning. But you can't cure rabies, can you? Well, I can set people's minds at rest about it, anyway. See what I mean? Half the time he needn't go at all. BILL: Of course I do. Reassurance is part of the treatment. People say it's a part of the disease. It's the patient you must treat, not the illness. That's why you'll go and see their cattle, won't you? If only to tell them it's not brucellosis at all. All that way, and all that danger, just to put their minds at rest? Well, what about my mind? That could use some reassurance, too, while you're away. I'm not going, Alice. I made up a pack for Charles, if it is brucellosis, told him what to do. Now, let's have supper, shall we? (CLOCK TICKING) (COW BELLOWING)
