What?
That's the shape my hand's gonna be when I hold that thing. You understand? I'm not leaving here without it.
Look, Brock, she's going to do this her way, in her own time. Don't forget, she contacted you. She's out here for her own reasons, God knows what they are.
I'm in the sitting room. Heading for bedroom B54.
Stay off the floor. Don't stir it up like you did yesterday.
I'm tryin' boss.
Who's the best? Say it.
You are, Lewis. You rolling?
Shit.
You know, boss, this happened to Geraldo and his career never recovered.
Get that outta my face.
She says she's Rose DeWitt Bukater, right? Rose DeWitt Bukater died on the Titanic. At the age of 17. If she'd've lived, she'd be over a hundred now.
A hundred and one next month.
Okay, so she's a very old goddamned liar. I traced her as far back as the 20's... she was working as an actress in L.A. An actress. Her name was Rose Dawson. Then she married a guy named Calvert, moved to Cedar Rapids, had two kids. Now Calvert's dead, and from what I've heard Cedar Rapids is dead.
We've put together the world's largest database on the Titanic. Okay, here...
Rose might not want to see this, Lewis.
So let me get this right. You were gonna kill yourself by jumping off the Titanic? That's great!
Lewis...
Holy shit.
Don't drop it Rose.
Rush her.
It's hers, you schmuck. Look, Rose, I... I don't know what to say to a woman who tries to jump off the Titanic when it's not sinking, and jumps back onto it when it is... we're not dealing with logic here, I know that... but please... think about this a second.
Your ship is a wonder, Mr. Andrews. Truly.
Thank you, Rose.
Mr. Andrews, I did the sum in my head, and with the number of lifeboats times the capacity you mentioned... forgive me, but it seems that there are not enough for everyone aboard.
About half, actually. Rose, you miss nothing, do you? In fact, I put in these new type davits, which can take an extra row of boats here. But it was thought... by some... that the deck would look too cluttered. So I was overruled.
I saw the iceberg, Mr. Andrews. And I see it in your eyes. Please tell me the truth.
The ship will sink.
You're certain?
Yes. In an hour or so... all this... will be at the bottom of the Atlantic.
Please tell only who you must, I don't want to be responsible for a panic. And get to a boat quickly. Don't wait. You remember what I told you about the boats?
Yes, I understand. Thank you.
Mr. Andrews, thank God! Where would the Master at Arms take someone under arrest?!
What? You have to get to a boat right away!
No! I'll do this with or without your help, sir. But without will take longer.
Take the elevator to the very bottom, go left, down the crewman's passage, then make a right.
Bottom, left, right. I have it.
Hurry, Rose.
Won't you even make a try for it, Mr. Andrews?
I'm sorry that I didn't build you a stronger ship, young Rose.
Good luck to you, Rose.
And to you, Mr. Andrews.
Water 14 feet above the keel in ten minutes... in the forepeak... in all three holds... and in boiler room six.
That's right.
Five compartments. She can stay afloat with the first four compartments breached. But not five. Not five. As she goes down by the head the water will spill over the tops of the bulkheads... at E Deck... from one to the next... back and back. There's no stopping it.
The pumps
The pumps buy you time... but minutes only. From this moment, no matter what we do, Titanic will founder.
How much time?
An hour, two at most.
You should be ashamed of yourselves. Two men of your standing, always quarreling.
He started it.
But you're the more intelligent one.
That's true.
Then why did you do it?
Because I hate himbecause I love you!
You should have more selfcontrol. You were in the army.
Well, he was in the navy.
Your bag?
Yes, my bag!
Didn't you take it with you?
Apparently not. Don't you know where it is?
NoI'm sorry.
But you saw it here.
Yes, I saw itbut
Well, where is it?
You've had your breakfastoh, but of course you have.
Yes, madame. You see, I have to get up very early. My little brother goes to school You see, Mother is dead.
Yes, that's the trouble with mothers. First you get to like them and then they die.
Two lumps, madame?
Please! Thank you.
May I?
Yes, madame?
You see Oh, not a word to M'sieu Laval!
About what?
Potatoes. He doesn't want me to eat them and naturally I don't want to upset him.
Naturally not!
Now. Uhmademoisellein the short time you have been M'sieu Laval's secretary, have you noticed any change in him?
Welluhyes and no.
To me he seems rather nervous.
Nervous? Umhum. He smokes too much!
No, he <u>works</u> too much. He's chained to his desk. Too much detail. Now, if you could take over some of his work
So he wouldn't be confined so much to his office
Yes! And he would have a little more time for
For all the really important things
Right!
I'll do my best, madame, even if I have to work every night.
Oh, no, no, no, no, my dear child! That's ridiculous. You go home as usualfive o'clock every day. Now I'm going to be a little bit of a tyrantI insist. It'll be nice for your little brother, too. <u>Five</u> <u>o'clock</u>remember!
Very well, madame. Thank you.
Yes, madame?
How much is your salary?
Well, in times like these most people are cutting salaries, but suppose we say, in your case, three hundred and fifty?
Oh, madame, you're just too sweet for words!
I think you'd better go.
Ever had a romance with a crook?
I beg your pardon!
Let me give you a little advice. When you embrace him, be sure to put on your gloves. It would be too bad if your fingerprints were found ...
Mademoiselle Gautieror whatever your name isI thank you for your advice, but I must ask you to go. You've got your money
I don't want your money!
But my dear M'sieu Giron, I'm having a tea party. Must I be bothered with all these papers now?
I'm sorry, madame, but there are still certain matters which I think you should attend to yourself. And I, personally, would not care to refer them toto
