00:01:00The End
00:01:29I'm not going to let you go.
00:01:30I'm going on that plane.
00:01:32Of all the mad info.
00:01:33Alex, please, we've been over this so many times.
00:01:36Let's face it, we haven't been happy for the past two years.
00:01:39All right, it's been my fault, I admit it.
00:01:41Now I demand you cancel this trip.
00:01:42Demand?
00:01:43I don't think you're putting anything over on me.
00:01:45China, Red Cross, there are plenty of unmarried women for that.
00:01:49That's not why you're going.
00:01:51Oh, please.
00:01:51You're going to see someone else who's asked you to come.
00:01:54I'm sorry.
00:01:55But if you refuse to be reasonable, I'll divorce you.
00:01:57I'll charge you with desertion.
00:01:59All right, Alex.
00:02:00If that's the way you want it, do that.
00:02:02Honolulu, Colorado Island, Guam, and the Orient.
00:02:05Mrs. Alexander Wesson.
00:02:06All passengers for the Sea Bird, please collect your tickets that go immediately to the departure now.
00:02:11Yes, sir.
00:02:13Hello, Marshal.
00:02:13Is everything in order?
00:02:14Yes, Miss Chase.
00:02:15Here are your passports and health certificates.
00:02:17I made the reservations in the name of Doris Bailey.
00:02:19Thank you, Marshal.
00:02:20I'll cable as soon as I reach Hong Kong.
00:02:22Yes, Miss Chase.
00:02:23And a pleasant journey.
00:02:25Say, buddy, who is that?
00:02:26Hi, Miss Doris Bailey.
00:02:30Everything's in order, Miss Chase.
00:02:31I mean, Miss Bailey.
00:02:33You know, we feel a great responsibility having you on board.
00:02:36Won't you just wait in the lounge, Miss Bailey?
00:02:38State Senator Corey.
00:02:40Senator Corey, just a moment.
00:02:41Hold it.
00:02:43Now, Senator, give us the old Star Spangled Banner look.
00:02:46Are you flying to China, Senator Corey?
00:02:48Well, I'm not walking.
00:02:49The first trip, Senator?
00:02:50Yes, this will be the first time that I take wings over the Great Pacific.
00:02:54Pardon, Senator.
00:02:54Is this trip government business or a private deal in China?
00:02:57You will astonish me.
00:02:57What kind of a private deal could I...
00:02:59Senator, you know they need a lot of water supplies over there these days.
00:03:01And with the right man on the table.
00:03:02Very great.
00:03:03Very clever.
00:03:03Good day, gentlemen.
00:03:04But, Senator...
00:03:05Here you are, Mr. Honeyman.
00:03:07Mr. Brand.
00:03:08Calling Mr. Brand.
00:03:09Message for Mr. Brand at the information set.
00:03:11Brand.
00:03:11Is that Mr. Harrison Brand?
00:03:13Is he a passenger?
00:03:14Yes, sir.
00:03:16Mr. Sidney.
00:03:16Mrs. Preitlin, Sidney.
00:03:17Do you have your passport and certificate of health for your return, Mrs. Sidney?
00:03:20Yes.
00:03:21May I have them?
00:03:22Oh, yes.
00:03:23Yes, here they are.
00:03:25They're going to be very exciting.
00:03:26Really?
00:03:26Oh, yes.
00:03:27My son is in Shanghai.
00:03:28He doesn't know I'm coming.
00:03:29It's been so long since I...
00:03:30Oh, I'm sorry to be taking so much time.
00:03:33Are you one of the passengers?
00:03:33I won't be if you don't step on us.
00:03:38Iris Compton.
00:03:39Mr. Brand.
00:03:40Calling Mr. Brand.
00:03:42Message for Mr. Brand at the information set.
00:03:45Hello, Curtis.
00:03:45This is Honeyman.
00:03:46Say, I thought you said this deal was undercover.
00:03:48Oh, is that so?
00:03:49Well, do you know who's on this plane?
00:03:51Brand.
00:03:52Brand of Caldwell Munitions.
00:03:54Sure, there's a fortune at stake if he doesn't start cutting prices.
00:03:58If he does, I'll cut his throat.
00:03:59And I'm not kidding.
00:04:01Who?
00:04:02Senator Corey.
00:04:03On this plane?
00:04:04Say, if I can get to him before Brand.
00:04:07Right.
00:04:08I'll cable you.
00:04:10Revert relief promptly at five.
00:04:12One more passenger.
00:04:13Robert Malone.
00:04:14If he's gone from Albuquerque, he'd be here on time.
00:04:16Mr. Malone.
00:04:17Calling Mr. Malone.
00:04:18Please report at once to registration desk.
00:04:20Yes.
00:04:30Hey, you fellows weren't going to leave me.
00:04:38We thought possibly you'd been delayed, Mr. Malone.
00:04:40Delayed?
00:04:41Now, whatever made you think that?
00:04:42All aboard, Mr. Malone.
00:04:43Happy landing, Jeff.
00:04:44So long, Jim.
00:05:46Feeling badly, sir?
00:05:47Son, if I felt any better, I'd think.
00:05:49And then you'd be sorry you mentioned it.
00:05:51Sorry I did.
00:05:52I'll be right back.
00:05:55Since we've been many hours ahead, we should get acquainted.
00:06:10I'm John P. Corey, formerly state senator.
00:06:13I'm merely Miss Bailey.
00:06:15Indeed.
00:06:16We at the nation's helm have done a great work for modern transportation, don't you think?
00:06:19We've made this ocean a mere mill pond and the whole world our neighbors.
00:06:23Can I say more?
00:06:24I hope not, senator.
00:06:26It's too funny as it is.
00:06:27Don't spoil it.
00:06:38Well, Harrison Brand.
00:06:40This is a coincidence.
00:06:42Hello, honeyman.
00:06:43Pleasure trip.
00:06:43And what a pleasure.
00:06:45It'll be a honeymoon if I meet the right party.
00:06:47That's fine.
00:06:48And if you don't meet the right party, I will.
00:06:51Now, that's quite a thought.
00:06:53Hang on to that.
00:06:54Very beautiful, isn't it?
00:07:04Now, look, my name is Malone.
00:07:06Does it make you happy?
00:07:08Honolulu, Hong Kong, or Shanghai, kid?
00:07:11Shanghai.
00:07:12Help?
00:07:13No.
00:07:14Vacation by request.
00:07:16Then you and I ought to knock off a few hours without boring each other.
00:07:19What's your racket?
00:07:20Besides help.
00:07:21Me?
00:07:22I'm the forgotten man.
00:07:23Trying to make myself a little more forgotten.
00:07:26On the when?
00:07:27Oh, Lisa, definitely.
00:07:29But I'm not exactly on parade.
00:07:32Well, I suppose you're one of our country's enterprising young men girdling the world for new business.
00:07:38Perhaps you'll make a fourth of the bridge.
00:07:40Cards for money?
00:07:41Why, that would be gambling.
00:07:45Say, we seem to be two of a kind on this deal.
00:07:48Let's keep it that way.
00:07:49Now, don't get your face red.
00:07:51This is a long trip.
00:07:52We both have a lot to think about.
00:07:54Let's hold everything under control.
00:07:56Sure, that's okay.
00:07:59Say, you seem to be pretty regular.
00:08:02You're regular, too.
00:08:04Radio gram for you, Miss Bailey.
00:08:06Excuse me.
00:08:06No answer.
00:08:19I bid one club, Hartley.
00:08:25I'm so sorry.
00:08:27Oh, thank you.
00:08:27Oh, thank you.
00:08:28Oh, I'm sorry.
00:08:31I must be very awkward.
00:08:32Oh, perhaps the ship is.
00:08:34It's the ship.
00:08:36Have you made the trip before?
00:08:38No, and I think this once will close the book for me.
00:08:41And you?
00:08:41My first trip, too.
00:08:43I think women have more courage than men.
00:08:45I think you've got something there, Mother.
00:08:46You can't prove it by me.
00:08:48I always defend men when I'm with women.
00:08:50Men are a strange lot, but they're useful sometimes.
00:08:53There are some good ones.
00:08:54My son is one.
00:08:55Your son is in China?
00:08:56Yes, I haven't seen him in five years.
00:08:58He doesn't know I'm coming.
00:08:59Oh, no wonder you're so excited.
00:09:01It'd be a great surprise for him.
00:09:03He hasn't written me in over a year,
00:09:04but I suppose all the trouble over there,
00:09:06he's been very busy helping to settle it.
00:09:08He must be very clever.
00:09:09He is.
00:09:10Oh, I'm sorry.
00:09:13I may be boring you.
00:09:14No, not at all.
00:09:15Do you like me to tell you a fortune?
00:09:16I read the cards, though.
00:09:17Oh, I don't believe in that.
00:09:19You may not believe in it, young woman,
00:09:21but it's very funny how often the things
00:09:23we see in cards come true.
00:09:24Cut three times, please.
00:09:29You're married.
00:09:30Right.
00:09:30You're returning to a dark man in China.
00:09:33Maybe I didn't cut the cards right.
00:09:35Oh, yes.
00:09:36Here's another man very much in love with you.
00:09:39No.
00:09:39That card is never wrong.
00:09:40It always spells romance.
00:09:42There he is again, the same man.
00:09:43Maybe it's the altitude.
00:09:45No.
00:09:45I'm sure it's a man.
00:09:47Isn't there always?
00:09:49That's what's wrong with the world.
00:09:50No more men in my life.
00:09:52Oh, Stuart, I must be over the Japanese current.
00:09:55Why, yes.
00:09:56You must be an experienced traveler.
00:09:58No, no.
00:09:58I've never been near the ocean before.
00:10:01Well, how did you know that?
00:10:02Well, there's a great many things in 50 years, young man.
00:10:05Some of them very strange.
00:10:07You have to wait until you're 50.
00:10:10Oh, look at the clouds.
00:10:13They look like strange worlds where anything might happen.
00:10:16I don't believe it.
00:10:21Oh, yes, it's very interesting.
00:10:22This is the sunken continental moon.
00:10:24We're over it now.
00:10:25That's how Eastern America were joined.
00:10:26Right below us this minute there was a very high civilization.
00:10:30I think we must be off our course a little.
00:10:36Officer, aren't we off our course?
00:10:37No, madam.
00:10:37That is not more than one or two degrees.
00:10:38Of course, nothing serious.
00:10:39One or two degrees is quite a lot.
00:10:40I think we're coming into a storm.
00:10:41Oh, ridiculous.
00:10:42Why, my dear lady, it's all sunshine.
00:10:46You were right, Mrs. Sidney.
00:10:47Maybe you can tell us when we're going to come out of it.
00:10:51We haven't really gotten into it yet.
00:10:52That's very encouraging.
00:10:53Oh, no.
00:10:54I think we must be off our course a little.
00:10:55Officer, aren't we off our course?
00:10:56No, madam.
00:10:57That is not more than one or two degrees.
00:10:58Of course, nothing serious.
00:10:59One or two degrees is quite a lot.
00:11:02I think we're coming into a storm.
00:11:04Oh, ridiculous.
00:11:05Why, my dear lady, it's all sunshine.
00:11:08You were right, Mrs. Sidney.
00:11:11Maybe you can tell us when we're going to come out of it.
00:11:14We haven't really gotten into it yet.
00:11:16That's very encouraging.
00:11:18I'm in a lot of these storms.
00:11:20Just take it easy.
00:11:21Don't get excited.
00:11:22I'm in a lot of these storms.
00:11:23Just take it easy.
00:11:24Don't get excited.
00:11:25I'm in a lot of these storms.
00:11:47Approximate position, north, 22, west, 143.
00:11:51Ceiling closing in fast.
00:11:55Merle Island calling Seabird.
00:11:58Merle Island calling Seabird.
00:12:03Merle Island calling Seabird.
00:12:06Merle Island calling Seabird.
00:12:09They can't hear us. I can't get through.
00:12:17Merle Island calling Seabird calling Coral Island.
00:12:20Merle Island calling Seabird calling Coral Island.
00:12:24Merle Island!
00:12:26Enter Hill.
00:12:32Come on, everybody. Now take it easy.
00:12:35Oh, is there any actual danger?
00:12:37We're trying to fly around the storm. There's no danger. Don't worry.
00:12:42Don't lose your nerve.
00:12:43Stewart! Stewart!
00:12:44Yes, Senator. What's happening?
00:12:46I demand to know.
00:12:47Why are we calling?
00:12:48Lookers like this.
00:12:49Sometimes we go up, sometimes we come down.
00:12:50Are you trying to be funny?
00:12:51Yes, sir.
00:12:52How am I doing?
00:12:54Don't fight, Mr. Sidney.
00:12:55I'm not funny.
00:12:56We shouldn't be put on the lights now.
00:12:58Well, they'll tell us if it's necessary.
00:13:05I can't raise anything.
00:13:06Keep trying! Keep trying!
00:13:08Where are we?
00:13:09We're at 10 degrees or more!
00:13:11Fine navigation!
00:13:16You're right!
00:13:17Maybe you haven't heard of a gun!
00:13:18You're right in the mouth!
00:13:19Get it!
00:13:20No, no!
00:13:21Let's go!
00:13:22I can't do the force!
00:13:24How are we?
00:13:25Hey!
00:13:26I can't do the force!
00:13:27You're right.
00:13:28I can't do the force!
00:13:29Go!
00:13:31You're right!
00:13:32That's not the force!
00:13:33No, no, no!
00:13:34And I can't do it!
00:13:35Go!
00:13:37I can't do this.
00:13:39No, no!
00:13:40Let me out here!
00:14:10Gotta meet my
00:14:33I'll start back everybody!
00:14:35I'll pluck the first one that tries to open that door!
00:14:40The End
00:15:10Are you feeling any better, Mrs. Sidney?
00:15:27I'm all right, dear.
00:15:28Don't worry too much about me.
00:15:29Take care of yourself.
00:15:30You'll need your strength.
00:15:32Not a sign of life anywhere.
00:15:33Not a living thing, man or beast.
00:15:35Where are we?
00:15:35That's what I want to know.
00:15:36It's gross mismanagement.
00:15:38I should insist upon an investigation.
00:15:40Immediately I return.
00:15:41Good idea, Senator.
00:15:42When you figure out exactly how you're going to get back, will you let us in on it?
00:15:46Boy, boy.
00:15:47Where are we anyway?
00:15:49As far as I can make out, we're nowhere.
00:15:51Where are the officers?
00:15:52We went down with the ship.
00:15:53I guess the door must have stuck.
00:15:55Oh, that's too bad.
00:15:56I'm very sorry.
00:15:56But here we are, passed on an uninhabited island.
00:15:59It's unprecedented.
00:16:00Oh, is that what it is?
00:16:01This is pretty funny.
00:16:03I was trying to run away from a nervous breakdown.
00:16:06Now, listen, everybody.
00:16:07There's no use getting excited.
00:16:08There might be a town right around the corner.
00:16:10Do it.
00:16:10The least you can do is to try to find some shelter.
00:16:12Lady, I lost my job a few hours ago.
00:16:15I'll do my share and no more.
00:16:16Now, see here, young man.
00:16:17Make out a report for the investigating committee, blubber puss.
00:16:20They're all in the same boat now.
00:16:22Cheer up, everybody.
00:16:24This is a pretty nice place.
00:16:25There's nothing to worry about.
00:16:26Yet.
00:16:27Just one big happy family.
00:16:29Hey, what is that over there?
00:16:30Isn't that smoke?
00:16:30Sure, it's smoke.
00:16:35Well, what are we wasting our time for?
00:16:36Let's investigate.
00:16:37Why, come on.
00:16:39Wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:16:46What is it?
00:16:46What is it?
00:16:46Do you see anybody?
00:16:47Oh, shut up.
00:16:48It looks creepy to me.
00:17:02Lay off that gun, will you?
00:17:03You'll start eating with it one of these days and it'll blow your head off.
00:17:07All right, look out.
00:17:08Look out.
00:17:08Look out.
00:17:08All right, let's go.
00:17:38Good questions.
00:17:40What is this place?
00:17:41Where are we?
00:17:42About 1,200 miles off the nearest ship or air lane.
00:17:45You enjoy privacy.
00:17:46You'll like it here.
00:17:47Are you alone here?
00:17:48I was.
00:17:49Say, pal, what about some food?
00:17:51We dropped out of the sky last night in a burning plane.
00:17:54Guess we're what you'd call survivors.
00:17:56Where are the officers?
00:17:57Well, they went down with the plane, the poor fellas.
00:17:59We want transportation at once to the nearest port.
00:18:01I'm sure you do.
00:18:02How about a boat?
00:18:03Sorry.
00:18:04How far are we from Shanghai?
00:18:061,500 miles.
00:18:07Do any boats ever stop here?
00:18:09No.
00:18:10But I've only been here a year.
00:18:12We must get away somehow.
00:18:14Look.
00:18:15There's a boat.
00:18:17Don't get excited.
00:18:19It's mine.
00:18:19I thought you said you didn't have a boat.
00:18:23I said you didn't have a boat.
00:18:25Now, just a minute.
00:18:26Are we to understand that you refuse to pilot us?
00:18:28Don't you think a good breakfast would be about the most important thing right now?
00:18:31That's the most sensible thing that's been said yet.
00:18:35If you'll excuse me.
00:18:35Well, it served its purpose, Mr. Taylor, but now let's get down to business.
00:19:02Business?
00:19:03Yes.
00:19:03You must be reasonable.
00:19:04Why?
00:19:05Why?
00:19:06Don't be ridiculous.
00:19:07Why should any man be reasonable?
00:19:08I'm sure I don't know.
00:19:09You seem to resent our coming here.
00:19:11I most certainly do.
00:19:13Well, obviously, it's not through our own choice.
00:19:15I imagine not.
00:19:16Why won't you take us to the mainland, apart from your inconvenience?
00:19:19Let's say that is the reason.
00:19:21Man alive, can't you understand?
00:19:22We're people of affairs.
00:19:24We have missions in this world.
00:19:25Now, now, Senator, you're taking yourself too seriously.
00:19:28But really, Mr. Taylor, it's the only decent thing you can do.
00:19:31Decent?
00:19:31Yes, decent.
00:19:32What's to prevent our taking the boat?
00:19:34Is there a navigator in the crowd?
00:19:36I think I can read a compass.
00:19:38I think.
00:19:39Well, if you think you can navigate a thousand miles of treacherous sea, why?
00:19:42Is it possible that your man, Mr. Ping, can sail the boat?
00:19:45Yes, we can.
00:19:48But he's not going to.
00:19:49Ah, this is unfortunate.
00:19:50Now, look, let's understand each other thoroughly.
00:19:53You want to get to your destinations for reasons of your own.
00:19:55I refuse to take you for reasons of my own.
00:19:58That I have personal reasons goes without saying.
00:20:00And I don't want any more probing.
00:20:02I didn't invite you here.
00:20:04But as long as you are here, I'll do my best to treat you as guests.
00:20:07Only as long as you act as guests.
00:20:10Is that clear?
00:20:10Mr. Teller, time for a news bulletin.
00:20:14Put it on, Ping.
00:20:15All right.
00:20:16Radio?
00:20:17Just an old-fashioned battery set.
00:20:21And with troops at the borders, all Central Europe is tense, awaiting the next move of the dictators.
00:20:27We now swing across from Central Europe to somewhere in the Pacific Ocean,
00:20:30where the mystery of the giant plain seabird is cloaked in silence.
00:20:33Although hope has not been abandoned, it is considered almost certain that the plane and all its occupants went down into the sea.
00:20:40We formally broadcast the identity of those aboard, with the exception of three passengers.
00:20:45They have now been established through dispatches from San Francisco.
00:20:48Traveling aboard the plane incognito, under the name of Doris Bailey, was Miss Thelma Chase,
00:20:54heiress to the Chase Millions and one of the richest girls in the world.
00:20:57It is said that she was going abroad to absent herself from the growing labor troubles in one of her factories,
00:21:03which is now closed by strikes.
00:21:05Another on the plane was Robert Malone, known in the underworld as the Torpedo,
00:21:09a former member of the notorious Dutch Swanson Gang.
00:21:12Malone was fleeing to the Orient with $150,000, which he had held back from some gang operation.
00:21:18The reason for his hasty flight was said that he had been marked for death by his fellow monsters.
00:21:23A killer.
00:21:23Although on the plane was Miss Iris Compton,
00:21:25who was being sought for the District Attorney's Office
00:21:28for questioning regarding her knowledge of underworld activities.
00:21:31Newspapermen alleged that she was ordered to leave the city until the investigation blew open.
00:21:36Harrison Brand and T.L. Honeyman, whose identity was reported before,
00:21:39were munition salesmen for two unnamed competitive firms,
00:21:43both hastening to the Orient to close gigantic deals for the sale of ammunition.
00:21:48And this brings to a close our news broadcast for this evening.
00:21:51The program comes to you...
00:21:52That makes at least three murderers.
00:21:56Ladies and gentlemen, now we're really getting acquainted.
00:22:00It seems to me, Miss Compton, that from now on, out of respect for these ladies, that you...
00:22:03Senator, you shut up.
00:22:05I advise you to take that advice, Senator.
00:22:08You too, Malone.
00:22:09Mr. Taylor, I'll give you $100,000 to take me to China.
00:22:13You mean just you?
00:22:14I can't speak for the others.
00:22:16You can put me down for 50 Gs and another $50,000 for Miss Compton.
00:22:19Thanks, buddy.
00:22:20That's very thoughtful.
00:22:22That split in the bankroll with you is two to one.
00:22:23I need that last $50,000 to get started again.
00:22:25How much Miss Chase has offered, Taylor?
00:22:27But you'll have to wait until I put over this deal in China.
00:22:30That is, if the Senator here lends proper influence...
00:22:33Well, if it's that kind of a deal, I'll double it.
00:22:35Well, Senator, here's your chance.
00:22:38These gentlemen are insinuating that your help can help put over their munitions deal.
00:22:41Of course, the thousands of lives involved wouldn't matter to you.
00:22:45Really, gentlemen?
00:22:46You put me in a very embarrassing position.
00:22:48I don't know what you're talking about.
00:22:50I don't think you told me who you are.
00:22:53I'm a nurse returning to China for humanitarian reasons.
00:22:56Of course, I realize that means nothing to you.
00:22:58A graduate nurse?
00:23:00Yes.
00:23:01Been in China before?
00:23:02Yes.
00:23:03In what hospital?
00:23:04The Lady of the Lamp in Coochow.
00:23:06Why?
00:23:07Oh, just curious.
00:23:10Well, what about it?
00:23:13I'm sorry to inconvenience Mrs. Sidney and Mrs. Wesson, but I'm not taking any of you.
00:23:16Do you think you're going to keep us on this island while there's a boat around that'll sail?
00:23:19You're crazy.
00:23:20Why get excited?
00:23:21We don't care much where we're going, as long as it isn't back.
00:23:24And there's just one other little thing.
00:23:27When I arrived on this island, the first thing I did was to build this shack.
00:23:30And then I began scouting for food.
00:23:32If you think you're going to run this island, tell me what you'd like for dinner.
00:23:35You'd better try and think up another idea.
00:23:37I'm not running a rest camp for nervous patients, and I'm a little sick of answering silly questions.
00:23:41To live on this island, two things are necessary.
00:23:43Food and shelter.
00:23:45And from now on, if you want either, you'll have to find your own.
00:23:47I prefer my own company.
00:23:50He means we're very welcome, folks.
00:23:52I prefer my own company.
00:24:22We're going to let this mug get away with us.
00:24:33We've got a right to eat.
00:24:34I'll talk to him.
00:24:35Talk.
00:24:36Oh, did you want something?
00:24:53Now look here, Mr. Taylor.
00:24:55We're perfectly willing to pay for the food.
00:24:58I'm sorry, Senator, but your money is no good here.
00:25:00I'm quite willing to let you use my fishing tackle.
00:25:04In fact, I might even stretch it apart.
00:25:05I'll give you some of my fish.
00:25:07Oh, no, not this one.
00:25:09Oh.
00:25:10But you'll have to cook them yourselves.
00:25:12Oh, I don't mind that.
00:25:14Can anybody cook?
00:25:15And one other thing.
00:25:17If you don't clean up afterwards, you can't use my fireplace again.
00:25:20I'll see for that, too.
00:25:22And you'll have to gather your own firewood.
00:25:23Oh, very well.
00:25:24You'll find the fish outside under the damp leaves.
00:25:27No, no, no.
00:25:28No, I'll take it easy for you.
00:25:29No, no, no, no.
00:25:30Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up.
00:25:31I'll take it easy for you.
00:25:32I'm not going to get tough, huh?
00:25:34I'm not going to get tough, huh?
00:25:34I'm not going to get tough, huh?
00:25:46What are we going to do, Mr. Taylor?
00:25:48I don't know.
00:25:50I'm just as anxious to get rid of them as they ought to go.
00:25:52We stay very slim.
00:25:54You don't take charge.
00:25:55You can't go back.
00:25:57I know that thing.
00:25:59Very well.
00:26:00Put it here.
00:26:01We must all cooperate.
00:26:04Ah, very clever of you girls.
00:26:05I'm very fond of tennis.
00:26:07Now, let's go about this in organized, democratic fashion.
00:26:10We'll divide up the work.
00:26:11Mrs. Sidney, can you cook?
00:26:12I've been frying fish for 30 years.
00:26:14Fine, fine.
00:26:14Joseph, you can prepare the vegetables.
00:26:16Malone, you can clean the fish.
00:26:18Miss Spelma Chase may serve the meal, if you will.
00:26:20And Mrs. Wesson, you can clean up afterwards.
00:26:22Brandon Honeyman, you can gather the wood.
00:26:23There now, that's democratic.
00:26:25I'm tired of eating, Senator.
00:26:26Just what do you do?
00:26:27Why, I'm the organizer.
00:26:28Who elected you?
00:26:30If this is going to be democratic, let's have an election.
00:26:32Here, here, here.
00:26:33I nominate the senator to clean the fish.
00:26:34I have just a minute.
00:26:35I second the motion that the senator cleans the fish.
00:26:37All in favor?
00:26:38Aye.
00:26:39Again.
00:26:40Aye.
00:26:41I protest.
00:26:42Overruled.
00:26:42This is against all conceptions of democracy.
00:26:44It's a virtual dictatorship.
00:26:46On the contrary, Senator, it's perfect democracy.
00:26:49The voice of the people.
00:26:50If you don't clean the fish, you don't eat.
00:26:51Oh.
00:26:52Oh, hey, shall we go?
00:27:17You can't come in here!
00:27:18Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:27:19You can't come in here!
00:27:22Oh, fancy finding you here.
00:27:24Go away.
00:27:25I thought this was my boat.
00:27:26Maybe I'm wrong.
00:27:27Come on out.
00:27:28I can't.
00:27:29Here.
00:27:30Wrap yourself in this.
00:27:39Well?
00:27:40I was swimming and got tired.
00:27:42I stopped to rest.
00:27:43Good, I'm glad to see you.
00:27:44Oh, really?
00:27:45I've been waiting to talk to you.
00:27:46Conscience been bothering you?
00:27:48You do have a conscience.
00:27:49A little.
00:27:50Well, that's at least one human quality.
00:27:53That was a pretty speech you made last night.
00:27:55Wasn't it deserved?
00:27:56Maybe, but still you can't expect us to accept it gracefully.
00:27:59After all, our lives do mean something to us.
00:28:02You don't think the men are going to let you get away with it?
00:28:04Sorry, there's nothing they can do about it.
00:28:06Anyhow, I'd rather you pleaded your own case.
00:28:09Well, I'd rather not.
00:28:11But what are you going to do about Mrs. Sidney?
00:28:13She can't stand this place.
00:28:15It's too bad.
00:28:16Well, it'll be too bad for you if you don't fail us,
00:28:19because we'll take the boat ourselves.
00:28:21Now, look here, young lady.
00:28:23You're wasting your time inspecting this boat.
00:28:25I can tell you and all the others everything you need to know.
00:28:28The magnet is hidden on the island.
00:28:29So is the gasoline.
00:28:30And I don't think anybody can handle sales.
00:28:32So I left that.
00:28:33And all the charts are hidden, too.
00:28:35All right, Mr. Taylor.
00:28:36But if you think you can keep eight people on this island
00:28:38when you have the means of taking them away, you're crazy.
00:28:41There, there.
00:28:42Now, if you keep on talking like this,
00:28:43we're both going to get feverish.
00:28:45Come on, come on.
00:28:46Oh!
00:28:47Let's cool on!
00:28:48What's on your mind, Pink?
00:28:49I've been thinking, Mr. Taylor.
00:28:51What's on your mind, Ping?
00:29:09I've been thinking, Mr. Teller.
00:29:11You have?
00:29:12Well, so have I, Ping, but it hasn't gotten me anywhere.
00:29:15Get Ping somewhere.
00:29:16Well, I've always said you were a better thinker than I.
00:29:19Yes.
00:29:19Ping, these people here, it's bad business.
00:29:23I wish we knew what we could do about it.
00:29:25They must go.
00:29:26Yes, but how?
00:29:30I think there's something in what you say, Ping.
00:29:33It's pretty risky.
00:29:35Even if we took a chance and dropped them off in an isolated spot in the main line at midnight.
00:29:46Thanks, Ping.
00:29:47That's probably a very good idea.
00:29:53That's right along now.
00:29:55That's right.
00:29:55Easy.
00:29:56That's it.
00:29:57Come on.
00:29:57Put them in there.
00:29:58Excellent.
00:29:59Excellent.
00:29:59Come on.
00:30:00Now, Senator, if you're going to follow me.
00:30:02Here you go.
00:30:02You have to.
00:30:05Let's go.
00:30:06Ladies and gentlemen, I have some sad news for you.
00:30:08I've changed my mind.
00:30:09You're leaving here.
00:30:10Why not?
00:30:10Well, young man.
00:30:12I'm glad you see the path of decency at last.
00:30:13My conscience is stricken, Senator.
00:30:15Mr. Honeyman and Mr. Brand being kept from their noble work
00:30:17causes me sleepless nights.
00:30:19I can't stand it any longer.
00:30:21And poor Miss Chase.
00:30:22Thirty millions and no place to spend it.
00:30:25That's a tragedy.
00:30:26You take it?
00:30:27You are a pilotist.
00:30:28I'm not going.
00:30:30My Chinese Seven will be your captain.
00:30:32However, there's just one little difficulty.
00:30:34There are nine of you, and the boat only holds six.
00:30:37The rest of you will have to wait about three months.
00:30:40Oh, well, the time will soon pass for the others.
00:30:42Now, about the six.
00:30:43Naturally, age comes first, then the ladies.
00:30:45Quiet!
00:30:46There's nothing to be gained by disorderly conduct.
00:30:48Now, it's obvious that the first to go should be those
00:30:51whose objectives are the most important.
00:30:53Certainly, it's more fitting that a lady like Miss Chase
00:30:55should perceive this...
00:30:56One little crack on you, Senator.
00:30:57Forget it, will you?
00:30:58Take that back.
00:30:59I'm sorry, Mr. Compton.
00:31:00I apologize.
00:31:01I wasn't going to offer to stay here, but that's out.
00:31:03Well, if you're all through, I'll give you my decision.
00:31:05I'll give you my decision.
00:31:07I'm sorry, Mr. Compton.
00:31:08I apologize.
00:31:09I was going to offer to stay here, but that's out.
00:31:10If you're all through, I'll give you my decision.
00:31:12Number one is Ping.
00:31:13Number two, Mrs. Sidney.
00:31:14Three and four, Miss Compton and Mr. Malone.
00:31:16Number five, Mrs. Wesson.
00:31:18But you said there were six.
00:31:19Yes, that's my difficulty.
00:31:21Let's see, there are four left.
00:31:23Well, I suppose we'll have to toss for it.
00:31:25It's Joseph.
00:31:26Well, I don't understand why this is absolutely...
00:31:27One toss for four people and then you...
00:31:29It's silly!
00:31:30Senator, I'm sorry, but that's the way it is.
00:31:32Too bad, Miss Chase.
00:31:33You can't leave me here.
00:31:34You simply can't.
00:31:35That $100,000 that you offered me, Miss Chase,
00:31:38perhaps Miss Compton would take that for her place.
00:31:41For three months?
00:31:42Yeah, that's fair.
00:31:44Now I can have that nervous breakdown I've been putting off for years.
00:31:47Boy, will I enjoy it.
00:31:49Now look, everybody, when you come right down to it,
00:31:51there's no particular rush for me to leave this island.
00:31:53I mean, after all, what's three months more or less to me?
00:31:56Well, then that's very fine of you, Malone.
00:31:59Well, that's settled.
00:32:01Oh, by the way, you sail at noon.
00:32:04Tomorrow.
00:32:05You can't get away with this, Taylor.
00:32:07Take it easy, Bran.
00:32:08He won't.
00:32:11Your best course, Ping, will be to avoid the Sarman Group of Ireland.
00:32:14You understand the map?
00:32:15Yes, Mr. Taylor.
00:32:16It's going to be tough taking five people.
00:32:18We make it.
00:32:19Well, run along now and check everything.
00:32:21Yes, Mr. Taylor.
00:32:22Oh, hello, Mrs. Weston.
00:32:24Your bag's all packed.
00:32:28I wanted to thank you, Mr. Taylor.
00:32:30I've been doing you a great injustice these past few days.
00:32:32Mental murder?
00:32:33Just about.
00:32:35I'm sorry you're not going with us.
00:32:37I'm sorry you're not staying.
00:32:39You're a curious person.
00:32:41I suppose all my life I'll be wondering who you are
00:32:44and why you're on this island.
00:32:48It'll be most irritating.
00:32:50You'll forget all about this island the minute you get back to civilization.
00:32:53I don't think so.
00:32:57Goodbye.
00:32:59Goodbye.
00:33:06Now, we don't want to pull any strong arm stuff, Taylor,
00:33:08but right here and now you're going to listen to reason.
00:33:10I thought you understood me.
00:33:11That was your mistake.
00:33:12You're going to understand us.
00:33:14Listen, Taylor, you can't set yourself up as a tin god.
00:33:16You either take us, or we take you.
00:33:18No, not that.
00:33:19No.
00:33:20No.
00:33:21No.
00:33:22No.
00:33:23No.
00:33:24No.
00:33:25No.
00:33:26No.
00:33:27No.
00:33:30No.
00:33:31No.
00:33:32No.
00:33:33No.
00:33:34No.
00:33:35Oh
00:34:05Sorry I couldn't get here earlier. All right you mugs. Take it on the lam.
00:34:25Thanks. It's okay. Hey, wouldn't it be a riot if I had to become the cop around this joint?
00:34:30Fine boys, Honeyman and Brand. Very. You should find that company quite enjoyable these next three months.
00:34:37Yeah, maybe I ought to keep them here. You know, there's an idea in that. Quarantine all munitions makers and their salesmen on an island and let them shoot it out.
00:34:44Do you ever do anything with your ideas? Oh, I just dream them up. That's what I thought. Well, it's about time you started putting them to work.
00:34:50Anything you say. Leave Honeyman and Brand here. You sail us instead of ping and then start kidnapping munitions makers.
00:34:57I have a better idea. Will it work? Now, that depends on you.
00:35:00Send Honeyman and Brand back with Ping and you stay.
00:35:02Ping? Oh, seriously, Anne. Won't you let someone else go and you stay till the boat comes back? We haven't begun to know each other yet.
00:35:08Why should we? For the best reason in the world.
00:35:11What's that? Because we want her.
00:35:13Oh, do we?
00:35:15deber we need toado?
00:35:26Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:35:29Put him up, fish face.
00:35:31Don't shoot.
00:35:32He's OK.
00:35:33It's holding on his shoulder.
00:35:34Come on, good boy.
00:35:35Get in there.
00:35:36Cast off that running.
00:35:37There you go.
00:35:59Take that for luck.
00:36:20And that.
00:36:29Mr. Sidney.
00:36:39Is she hurt badly?
00:36:42It's nothing serious, Miss Sidney.
00:36:44We'll take you up to the shack and pick you up right away.
00:36:46Give me a little minute.
00:36:47All right, take it easy now, boy.
00:36:49Be careful.
00:36:50Here we go.
00:36:51Here we go.
00:36:57Oh, shut up.
00:36:58We'll clean that cut and fix you like new.
00:37:00All you got to do is be a good boy.
00:37:01You want to make some money, don't you?
00:37:03Yes, sir.
00:37:04You bring us to the mainland and we'll give you $5,000.
00:37:06That'll make you the richest chairman on the coast.
00:37:08What do you say?
00:37:09$5,000, lots of the money.
00:37:11You're a smart boy.
00:37:12Well, can you beat this?
00:37:13And to think that guy, Taylor, was pulling all that stuff about leading a clean, simple life?
00:37:17The Shanghai News.
00:37:18Get this.
00:37:19Convicted doctor escapes.
00:37:21Dr. James Taylor, prominent Shanghai surgeon who was convicted of murder in the first degree for the slain of Thomas Sidney.
00:37:28A young American connected with the underworld escaped from prison last night, aided by his Chinese servants.
00:37:33That's me.
00:37:35Khalifa, however, feels certain he will be captured within the next 24 hours.
00:37:38When was that?
00:37:39A year ago.
00:37:40I guess cops are like the world over.
00:37:42You never can tell.
00:37:44There might be a reward on that guy's head.
00:37:46We'll find out when we notify the authorities.
00:37:49I want to see that guy, Mr. Dr. Taylor, in Shanghai, when they bring him back.
00:37:55We'll put on this bed.
00:37:56Take it easy.
00:37:57Take it easy.
00:37:58Take it easy.
00:37:59Easy.
00:38:00Easy.
00:38:01Easy.
00:38:02The rest of you wait outside, please.
00:38:03Malone, get that hot water off the fire.
00:38:04Right.
00:38:05Mrs. Wesson, you'll find my kid on the table.
00:38:06The dressings are inside.
00:38:08Mrs. Wesson, see where Malone is with that water.
00:38:09Yes, doctor.
00:38:10Now, Mr. Sidney, please don't say anything.
00:38:11No, please don't say anything.
00:38:12I'll just let him take it easy.
00:38:13Easy.
00:38:14The rest of you wait outside, please.
00:38:15Malone, get that hot water off the fire.
00:38:16Right.
00:38:17Mrs. Wesson, you'll find my kid on the table.
00:38:19The dressings are inside.
00:38:31Mrs. Wesson, see where Malone is with that water.
00:38:34Yes, Doctor.
00:38:39Now, Mrs. Sidney, please don't say anything.
00:38:43On that plane, remember.
00:38:44I had a feeling this was going to be an adventure.
00:38:48Yes, that's right, you did.
00:38:49Now, please.
00:39:04I'm ready.
00:39:05Overhead, Mrs. Wesson.
00:39:06Now, Mrs. Sidney, just grit your teeth.
00:39:09I'm going to poke that bullet now.
00:39:14She needs an anesthetic doctor.
00:39:16We haven't any.
00:39:17I'm afraid it's too late anyway, but we'll do what we can.
00:39:19It is too late.
00:39:22Don't worry about me.
00:39:25Seems as if I was right about everything.
00:39:30Except seeing my son again.
00:39:34Sam, will you tell it to me?
00:39:38You'll find his picture.
00:39:39His name is Thomas Sidney.
00:39:43Thomas Sidney?
00:39:45Yes.
00:39:46Did you know him?
00:39:48Yes.
00:39:49I know him.
00:39:52He's a very fine boy, Mrs. Sidney.
00:39:55I know him.
00:40:00I know him.
00:40:01Anne, please, please, don't cry.
00:40:11Please.
00:40:22I'm awfully sorry, Anne.
00:40:23I'm afraid I've made an awful mess of everything.
00:40:25You mustn't blame yourself.
00:40:26Oh, yes.
00:40:27I feel responsible for Mrs. Sidney's death.
00:40:29But it was an accident.
00:40:30If I'd have taken him away the first day, this never would have happened.
00:40:33Oh, they'd have had to wait for the second trip just the same.
00:40:35The only difference is it might have happened three days ago.
00:40:38I wish I could forget it.
00:40:40I keep thinking of Mrs. Sidney's son waiting for her.
00:40:43He won't be.
00:40:44He was killed a year ago, Anne.
00:40:46You really knew him?
00:40:47I thought you were just trying to comfort her.
00:40:49He was mixed up in the most vicious, depraved racket in the Orient.
00:40:52He finally caused an innocent woman to commit suicide.
00:40:55The woman's brother killed him.
00:40:57Maybe it's just as well Mrs. Sidney never got there.
00:41:00But how did you know?
00:41:03I was that woman's doctor.
00:41:06That couldn't have anything to do with your being here.
00:41:10In a way it has.
00:41:12Do you really think we'll get away from here in three months?
00:41:15As soon as Honeyman and Brand reach the mainland, they'll tell you...
00:41:17I don't think so.
00:41:19Don't really think they've killed Ping, do you?
00:41:21If they have, they'll never get to the mainland.
00:41:23If they haven't, Ping will never take them there.
00:41:24In which event, they probably will kill him.
00:41:27Well, the future doesn't look very bright, does it?
00:41:37Hello.
00:41:38Hello.
00:41:39Get in there.
00:41:40What's the rush?
00:41:41What's the rush?
00:41:42Take it easy.
00:41:43Take it easy.
00:41:44Now look, I don't like the way you're washing those pots.
00:41:47The sweet potato we had for lunch today tasted of yesterday's fish.
00:41:50I haven't yet mastered the art.
00:41:52I'm sorry.
00:41:53There's no art to it.
00:41:54It's just elbow grease.
00:41:55If you weren't so lazy, you'd take those things down to the beach and rub them with sand.
00:41:59That cleans them thoroughly, and I've told you that before.
00:42:01Oh, I'm in bedding something.
00:42:17It's a combination of all kinds of things.
00:42:19You mean all kinds of fish.
00:42:21Yeah.
00:42:22What's he going to call it tonight?
00:42:23Ask the chef.
00:42:25What do you call it again?
00:42:26It's Wilier Bay.
00:42:27Oh, yeah?
00:42:29Fish charter in Brooklyn.
00:42:30Come on, let's get the table set, honey.
00:42:32I'll set the table without the honey.
00:42:34How about a swim?
00:42:36I can't. I've got work to do.
00:42:38We're not all so lucky.
00:42:40Well, well, who'd have thought three months ago you'd wind up here?
00:42:43There you were.
00:42:44Oh, dear, life is so difficult.
00:42:46I don't know whether to spend the summer in Southampton or Ball Harbor.
00:42:49And the servant problem, my dear.
00:42:51And my stocks and bonds and factories.
00:42:53Say, I wonder how those poor guys are getting along in your factories.
00:42:56You know, the ones that were striking for shorter hours and better pay.
00:42:59I'll bet they miss you.
00:43:00If you don't shut up, what did I say?
00:43:02What did I do?
00:43:03You said too much.
00:43:04Isn't it bad enough around here?
00:43:05Work, work, work from early morning till late at night.
00:43:08I can't even go for a swim.
00:43:10And look at you, supply clerk and housekeeper.
00:43:13That's because I've had experience as a stenographer.
00:43:15In what type of establishment?
00:43:17Never mind that. I know my business.
00:43:18And how?
00:43:19I'm a white-collar worker. What can you do?
00:43:22There are plenty of things I could do.
00:43:24It so happens that Mr. Taylor and Mr. Malone won't give you a tumble.
00:43:28And are you burned?
00:43:29Oh, don't be ridiculous.
00:43:30Yeah, you're just sore because you're left out in the cold.
00:43:33Not that you have to be.
00:43:35There always does. Just this.
00:43:37See you later, Polly.
00:43:41I'm back, son.
00:43:42This boulube.
00:43:44I think we can call him in now.
00:44:01If I had Taylor here, I'd show him something.
00:44:05Mm-hmm.
00:44:06Hiss of them.
00:44:08Gives of them.
00:44:27I think we've got enough.
00:44:28I don't think so.
00:44:29We still have two roofs, and the wall are finished.
00:44:31We need at least one hundred more.
00:44:33Kinder, I think we've got enough.
00:44:36Hello, Belma.
00:44:54Hello, Johnny.
00:44:55Hello, blubber-bub.
00:44:57Where is everybody?
00:44:59Swimming, enjoying themselves as usual while we do the work.
00:45:01Belma, we're being exploited.
00:45:03Don't I know it.
00:45:04The nerve of them assigning the menial work to us.
00:45:07Our services could be used to much better advantage in many respects.
00:45:09Do you know that I offered to write a history of our stay on this island,
00:45:12and what did Taylor say?
00:45:14All right, what did he say?
00:45:16Unproductive.
00:45:16There doesn't seem to be much we can do about it.
00:45:18If there were something we could do about it, would you be interested?
00:45:20You've been thinking again.
00:45:22Don't be silly.
00:45:23Don't be silly?
00:45:24Did it ever occur to you that Taylor's reasons for hiding upon this island
00:45:28must arise from some criminal past?
00:45:30Are you just catching on?
00:45:31That occurred to me five minutes after we got here.
00:45:33All right, and if he's a criminal, he's probably a liar as well.
00:45:36So are most people.
00:45:37What of it?
00:45:38What of it?
00:45:38What of it?
00:45:39What?
00:45:39What?
00:45:39That bird hears everything.
00:45:40Listen.
00:45:42He told us that we were hundreds of miles off any ship lane,
00:45:45and we, like a pack of fools, believed him.
00:45:47How do we know?
00:45:47How do we know?
00:45:48It's possible that every day, just beyond that horizon,
00:45:51the ships are passing back and forth,
00:45:53and we, like a pack of fools, sit here.
00:45:55What do you want to do?
00:45:56Swim out there and thumb your way?
00:45:57Oh, no.
00:45:58But those ships can be reached.
00:46:01Has it occurred to you how I've spent my time these evenings?
00:46:05Frankly, Senator, it hasn't.
00:46:06Well, the first few weeks were spent purely in thought,
00:46:12general strategy, and then I hit upon a tactic.
00:46:15A tactic?
00:46:16A tactic, and I immediately set to work.
00:46:19Here they come.
00:46:20I'll tell you more after supper.
00:46:22You'll be off this island in a week, but remember,
00:46:24there's only one.
00:46:31I wonder what we're going to have for dinner.
00:46:33Well, it's nice to wonder, isn't it?
00:46:34You don't suppose to be fish, do you?
00:46:36Let's get that food.
00:46:37Come on, pal.
00:46:38I'm going to get ready and serve it again.
00:46:43You hungry?
00:46:44Couldn't be hungrier, I'll tell you.
00:46:46You know, when I was a boy in Chicago,
00:46:47I worked in one of the big packing firms there.
00:46:50All I did all day long was just smoke fish.
00:46:52You must have looked awfully sweet.
00:46:54I got so I thought I could never look another fish in the eye,
00:46:56but it gave me an idea.
00:46:57Now, suppose that I build a smoke oven.
00:47:00Then when the stormy season comes along,
00:47:02we'll have plenty of smoke fish.
00:47:03Not a new idea at all, Mr. Malone.
00:47:05I can assure you, the government's been talking for years
00:47:07about shortage and drugs.
00:47:09It's an old story.
00:47:10Talking?
00:47:10Then if we really do it, it'll be quite new.
00:47:13Hey, what's the idea?
00:47:14Is that all I get?
00:47:15I'm thinking about your figure, dear.
00:47:16You're getting awfully plump.
00:47:20Has everybody been served?
00:47:22Fine.
00:47:22Yes, thank you.
00:47:23Then maybe I can sit down and have my dinner.
00:47:24Sure, dear, honey.
00:47:26Have you young ladies had a nice day?
00:47:28A perfectly lovely day.
00:47:29I paid a social call on Miss Thelma Chase of Long Island.
00:47:33She gave me a delightful luncheon.
00:47:36That was sweet of you, Thelma.
00:47:38I'm so happy to see you girls getting on so well.
00:47:41Sweet of me.
00:47:42Breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
00:47:44There's an unfair distribution of work around here,
00:47:46and I object.
00:47:47Some people do practically nothing and have all the fun.
00:47:49You're all taking advantage of me.
00:47:51Why can't I go swimming when everyone else does
00:47:53and take time off for fun and rest?
00:47:54I'm entitled to a fair share in all the comforts,
00:47:57and if I don't get it, I'll, I'll, well, I'll just sit down.
00:48:01Sit down.
00:48:03Say, do you know?
00:48:05If the workers at the Chase Company had an eloquent leader
00:48:07like you to speak for them,
00:48:08I'll bet you they wouldn't have much trouble
00:48:09getting what they're after.
00:48:10Too bad you're not all shareholders, isn't it?
00:48:13I think Thelma's complaint is justified,
00:48:14and I nominate Johnny to do the housework for a while.
00:48:18All in favor?
00:48:19Aye!
00:48:20He's just too preposterous!
00:48:22Sorry, Johnny, but it seems you're elected.
00:48:23Collected?
00:48:24You see, as you're completely unequipped
00:48:26for any productive work,
00:48:27you'll have to remain unskilled labor.
00:48:29Join the Navy and learn a trade.
00:48:31But I, I cannot,
00:48:32we'll, we'll see about this later.
00:48:36Just one big happy family.
00:48:37Don't worry, Johnny,
00:48:45there are only three meals a day.
00:48:47How's he taking?
00:48:48Not very well.
00:48:49I think you don't remember him out too much.
00:48:50I doubt it.
00:48:51Well, keep him at it, keep him at it.
00:48:53Don't worry, I will.
00:48:55Hey, where's Iris?
00:48:56Probably waiting on the corner.
00:49:07Well, what did I do?
00:49:20This is just what I'm going to find out.
00:49:22Why don't you ask your questions first
00:49:23and sock it afterwards, then?
00:49:24Because I like it this way better.
00:49:26Now, come on, what's going on between you two?
00:49:28What two?
00:49:29Are you going to pull that baby face line?
00:49:31You know who I mean.
00:49:32Oh, you mean Thelma?
00:49:34Oh, you know better than that.
00:49:35I haven't given that name at Tumble.
00:49:36Honest.
00:49:37What do you know about Honest?
00:49:38Didn't I see the way she's been heaping your plate,
00:49:40feeding you up?
00:49:41What about that undercover talk
00:49:42she was giving you just now by the table?
00:49:44What, you mean when she was kind of
00:49:45whispering in my ear there?
00:49:46Yeah.
00:49:46Oh, well, that was nothing.
00:49:48It seems that she's just learned
00:49:51how to weave this grass and that...
00:49:53Well, she said she thought that I might like her
00:49:54to make me a little window shade from the shack.
00:49:56What for?
00:49:58Well, she said she thought
00:49:59I might like a little privacy.
00:50:00That's just what I thought.
00:50:01If the time ever comes when you need privacy,
00:50:03I'm making the curtains.
00:50:05Well, what are you waiting for when this gets started?
00:50:08Now, get this straight.
00:50:09The next time I get you fooling around
00:50:10with that common kitchen help,
00:50:12it'll be curtains for you,
00:50:13not the house.
00:50:17It's constant.
00:50:18I didn't know you can.
00:50:19You know, Ann,
00:50:21our little community hasn't turned out so badly.
00:50:23I hated the idea at first,
00:50:24but now everybody's changed.
00:50:26It's not so bad.
00:50:27Nobody's changed.
00:50:28They haven't changed in sight.
00:50:29Never satisfied, are you?
00:50:31No, and I never will be here.
00:50:33Never?
00:50:35Don't you see?
00:50:36I've got to get back.
00:50:37Back to what?
00:50:38Civilization.
00:50:38This isn't living.
00:50:39No, it all depends on how you look at it.
00:50:41Your civilization isn't so civilized these days.
00:50:43Well, you won't change that by running away.
00:50:46I suppose I did run away from my job.
00:50:48I didn't think much about it at the time.
00:50:50It didn't affect anybody except me.
00:50:53But I'm not alone anymore.
00:50:55Maybe the others haven't changed, Ann,
00:50:56but I have.
00:50:57I couldn't be content to stay here again without you.
00:51:00You could never be happy living here,
00:51:02even with me.
00:51:03Our lives are just beginning.
00:51:04We've got to make something of them.
00:51:06Arthur!
00:51:06Come on out of there!
00:51:07Hey, Carter!
00:51:09The island's on fire!
00:51:10What?
00:51:11The wind turns into the wind.
00:51:12It'll be terrible.
00:51:13Everybody down the beach.
00:51:14Where's gentlemen John?
00:51:15Come on out of there!
00:51:16Fire!
00:51:16Fire!
00:51:16Fire!
00:51:17Fire!
00:51:17Come on!
00:51:18Fire!
00:51:18Fire!
00:51:19Fire!
00:51:23Fire!
00:51:24Wait.
00:51:27Man, he's crazy.
00:51:28That is crazy.
00:51:30What are you trying to do?
00:51:31Is the whole island on fire?
00:51:32Well, why not?
00:51:33If I'd known you were cold, Senator,
00:51:34I'd offer you a jacket.
00:51:35Time somebody did something,
00:51:37you studiously avoided making any effort
00:51:38to signal the passage ship,
00:51:39so I'd put it on myself.
00:51:40If you were so anxious to leave,
00:51:41why don't you come to me for advice?
00:51:42We've had enough of your advice.
00:51:43Well, it's a pity,
00:51:44but this is all wasted effort.
00:51:46The ship lanes are miles away
00:51:47and in the opposite direction.
00:51:49They couldn't possibly have seen your fire from here.
00:51:51This is north, Johnny.
00:51:53The nearest northern ship lane from here
00:51:54is over a thousand miles.
00:51:56Well, I think you'd better pick up your pail and shovel
00:51:57and play nearer home.
00:51:59But I'll find a way up!
00:52:01Well, I hope it's at least as good as this one.
00:52:03But that...
00:52:03Oh...
00:52:05I tell you, that Chinaman's pulling a battle!
00:52:16We should have hit Chinaba now!
00:52:17I don't know what we're trying to do about it.
00:52:19We ran out of gas.
00:52:20Well, we should have been in China
00:52:21before we ran out of gas.
00:52:23Well, we're not.
00:52:24I'll tell you what it'll do.
00:52:25I'll tell this boat myself!
00:52:26Oh, no, you won't.
00:52:28I'll take the Chinaman.
00:52:29Come on, I'll see you with him.
00:52:30Nice breeze.
00:52:37Yes, very nice.
00:52:38And we ought to be tearing off some real mines.
00:52:41Oh, yes.
00:52:41Well, we'll still land on Solomon Island.
00:52:43Oh, someday, Mamie.
00:52:45We taxed.
00:52:46We taxed?
00:52:47You've been saying that for two weeks.
00:52:49When do we hit the mainland?
00:52:50Mamie, two days.
00:52:52Mamie, please.
00:52:52Mamie, never.
00:52:53Really quick now.
00:52:54You're lying to me.
00:52:55You've been going around in circles.
00:52:58I'll give you three days to throw me some land.
00:53:00And if you don't, you'll ever put your hands in the room again.
00:53:03All right.
00:53:04You're sailing boat.
00:53:06You know we don't have a sailing boat.
00:53:09Oh, well, they're easy.
00:53:11Stop telling me.
00:53:13Now, wait a minute.
00:53:14Maybe we've been too good to you.
00:53:18You've got to do better.
00:53:19I do better than I can.
00:53:21I'm human.
00:53:21You're not looking at me, man.
00:53:22You've got to do better than that.
00:53:30Hey, baby.
00:53:52You're covering my head.
00:53:55No! No!
00:54:07Tell me something, darling, but honestly.
00:54:09All right.
00:54:10Have you been happy these last few days?
00:54:13Happier than I've been for a long time.
00:54:15Let's forget everything that ever happened in the past.
00:54:17I've already forgotten.
00:54:19We need never think about it again.
00:54:21From now on, we live in the present.
00:54:23And think of the future.
00:54:24Ah, that's just what we won't do.
00:54:27Why not?
00:54:27The future has everything to offer.
00:54:29Of course it has.
00:54:30Our little community is getting along very well.
00:54:32No, Jim.
00:54:33It's not our future on this island I'm thinking about.
00:54:36This is only half living.
00:54:38It's the nicest half.
00:54:39You know that isn't true.
00:54:41Unless we face our responsibilities,
00:54:44we can't respect ourselves,
00:54:46much less each other.
00:54:48This may sound like an empty promise, Ann.
00:54:50That doesn't seem to be any way to fulfill it.
00:54:52But you mean more to me than anything else.
00:54:55If we ever can get away, we'll go.
00:54:57Together.
00:55:06Iris.
00:55:10Oh, it's you.
00:55:11What do you want?
00:55:13Are you alone?
00:55:14Yes, but I'm not lonesome.
00:55:16Are you available?
00:55:17I want to talk to you.
00:55:19What about?
00:55:20Well, how about yourself?
00:55:22All right.
00:55:23Come on in.
00:55:29Ah, what a cozy little place.
00:55:30You're really very clever, Iris.
00:55:32Excellent handicraft.
00:55:33Did Thelma make this?
00:55:34So far, Thelma didn't make anything.
00:55:36And if she knows what's good for her...
00:55:37Ah, ah, ah, ah, fighting with Thelma.
00:55:39Allowing selfish motives to interfere with the welfare of the community.
00:55:42What's it to you?
00:55:43I want to put you in my book.
00:55:44I'd hope that you might furnish me with this most interesting material.
00:55:47Well, I'll do anything I can.
00:55:49Fine, that's the proper spirit.
00:55:51You know, in a community such as ours, it's one for all, all for one.
00:55:54What's mine is yours, and it necessarily follows that what's yours is...
00:55:58Mine.
00:55:59Ah, yes.
00:55:59I want to record for posterity the reactions of a person such as yourself to, shall we say,
00:56:05nature in the wrong.
00:56:06Well, if you're going against personal...
00:56:07Ah, no, no, no, don't misunderstand me.
00:56:09I'm only trying to help.
00:56:10You must live so that no fault can be found with you.
00:56:12Last night I happened to see, not that I wanted to, Malone.
00:56:15Malone put his arm around you like this.
00:56:17Now, don't try to deny it.
00:56:20I saw you.
00:56:21It was just like this.
00:56:24Iris, it was a disgrace.
00:56:26What was the disgrace about it?
00:56:27Why, the very manner in which she...
00:56:29Now, wait a minute, Senator.
00:56:31What possible harm can there be to it?
00:56:33Why, all he did was put his arms around me like this and said,
00:56:36well, it's none of your business what he said.
00:56:38Why, you act as if it was a crime.
00:56:40Well, maybe I've been a little too hasty.
00:56:42Perhaps I've misjudged.
00:56:43I'm really beginning to feel as though you're perfectly right.
00:56:45I knew you'd see it my way, Senator.
00:56:47Yes, well, the little talk didn't hurt.
00:56:51In fact, I honestly think that a little understanding talk should come more.
00:57:00Oh, Senator, what was it you came to see me about?
00:57:03How am I doing, Polly?
00:57:14Polly?
00:57:26Will you please shut up?
00:57:27Now, look, Thelma.
00:57:28I can't whistle at night because you want to sleep.
00:57:30I can't whistle in the daytime because it bothers your nerves.
00:57:33When can a man whistle?
00:57:34You're tough to get along with.
00:57:36I'm very easy to get along with.
00:57:38Just tell me how.
00:57:38I told you, shut up!
00:57:41Now, look, Thelma, you've got to get over the jitters.
00:57:44Why don't you settle down and calm yourself?
00:57:46Everybody else around here is trying to make the best of everything.
00:57:49You could be pretty happy if you wanted to be.
00:57:51Thanks for the advice.
00:57:53Well, that's more than advice.
00:57:55Really?
00:57:56Gee, Thelma, don't you think you could learn to care just a little?
00:58:00We're going to be here a long time, you know.
00:58:02Is this your way of proposing?
00:58:05Yeah.
00:58:06Well, this is my way of accepting.
00:58:10She loves me!
00:58:11One, two, three.
00:58:15Can't you put that stuff down?
00:58:17We finally got to the one place in the world where you don't need money,
00:58:20and you can't even forget it here.
00:58:22Oh, I'm just counting it to pass the time away.
00:58:24That's the best way you can pass the time.
00:58:26You're going to be a great disappointment.
00:58:28What do you want it for?
00:58:29What good is it doing you?
00:58:30If you must count something, well, wait until tonight.
00:58:33We'll count the stars.
00:58:35Do you want to have some fun?
00:58:36Sure.
00:58:36Okay, let's burn it.
00:58:37You crazy?
00:58:38Yeah, but not about the money.
00:58:40Okay, kid, let's both go crazy.
00:58:42As long as we're going to wipe out the past, let's complete the job.
00:58:44Funny some guys burn because they love this stuff,
00:58:47and here we are burning it because we love each other.
00:58:50They are $1,000 bills.
00:58:52Funny our geography changes the value of this stuff.
00:58:54You know what we made a great discovery?
00:58:55Money is no good at all.
00:58:56There!
00:58:57There!
00:58:58There!
00:58:59There!
00:59:00There!
00:59:00There!
00:59:01Have you seen it?
00:59:02Have you seen it?
00:59:03Seen what?
00:59:04It's marvelous, marvelous, marvelous.
00:59:05I can't believe it.
00:59:06What's the matter?
00:59:07Did you see a ghost or something?
00:59:08A ghost!
00:59:09Well, what is it?
00:59:10It's not a ghost.
00:59:11It's a real thing.
00:59:12A boat.
00:59:13A big, beautiful boat.
00:59:14A magnificent moniker of the sea.
00:59:15Coming this way.
00:59:16Come, let me show you.
00:59:17Oh, Johnny, he's famous.
00:59:18Now, where?
00:59:19A boat.
00:59:20A boat?
00:59:21Let's save that boat.
00:59:29What's happened?
00:59:30It's Johnny.
00:59:31He's gone crazy.
00:59:32I always knew he would.
00:59:33Taylor, come here.
00:59:34A boat's coming.
00:59:35What?
00:59:36The Navy.
00:59:37The Navy has come to rescue us.
00:59:38I'm positive it's the Navy.
00:59:39Of course, they'd never give up the search for us.
00:59:41Those greyhounds of the sea are everywhere.
00:59:43Where?
00:59:44Oh, here come the Marines.
00:59:45Oh, to get some decent clothes again and a manicure.
00:59:48Gee, I don't feel like I thought I would at all.
00:59:53Come on, let's see what this is all about.
00:59:54Come on, everybody.
01:00:05Nice work, Ping.
01:00:09Hello, Ping.
01:00:10I'll come back, Mr. Taylor.
01:00:14I knew you would, Ping.
01:00:19What happened, Ping?
01:00:20Where are your honeymoon in Brand?
01:00:22Then, for over both, Mr. Taylor.
01:00:27I think I'll come back, Mr. Taylor.
01:00:40Where is everybody?
01:00:43Hasn't been so quiet here in a long time.
01:00:45They're down at the beach trying to hold the Senator back.
01:00:47Don't tell me he's going to swim after the boat.
01:00:49That's what they're afraid of.
01:00:50He wants to get the best bunk.
01:00:51Yeah, well, he'll sleep on deck and like it.
01:00:53Oh, don't worry about the Senator.
01:00:55He'll find something in the Constitution to provide him with a bunk.
01:01:02Now I'll have to start worrying about a job all over again.
01:01:05Don't worry, I'll help you find a job.
01:01:07Is there a strike breaker in one of your factories?
01:01:09No, I learned something on that island.
01:01:11There are going to be a lot of changes.
01:01:13I'm writing a history of our stay on this island.
01:01:16Now, let's see.
01:01:17After I saved those who survived,
01:01:19I took on the responsibility of leadership
01:01:22and set about establishing a democratic community.
01:01:25I was given the title of...
01:01:27You know, honey, I've got a pretty good idea.
01:01:30It better be a new one.
01:01:32What do you say when we get to Hong Kong we tie the knot?
01:01:34Then we can buy ourselves a little boat like this
01:01:36and head back for the island and spend our honeymoon.
01:01:38I'll go for the first part of it.
01:01:40But we'll spend the honeymoon and the money in Shanghai.
01:01:42Looks like I'm the boss, all right?
01:01:44Yes, you are!
01:01:50Well, things aren't quite the way you've figured them out for yourself, are they, Tal?
01:01:54Well, not quite.
01:01:56You got a big stretch to do?
01:01:58I had a hunch you were on the land from the beginning.
01:02:01After all, if I didn't know the signs, who would?
01:02:03Look, Jim.
01:02:05If this dough was of any use to you, just say the word.
01:02:07I'm afraid I can't use it where I'm going.
01:02:09Tough a wrap as that, eh?
01:02:11Well, 150 grand is a lot of dough in any man's country.
01:02:14Don't forget you can count on it.
01:02:16Thanks. Here, take this wheel and keep the compass right where it is.
01:02:18Okay?
01:02:24You made up your mind you still want to go back?
01:02:27I thought we all had.
01:02:29Taylor's only going back on account of you.
01:02:31The rest of us are riding on velvet.
01:02:33Haven't you any idea why he didn't want to go back?
01:02:35Because the minute this boat hits port, there's going to be somebody there to grab him.
01:02:39It looks to me like you'd better make plans for your future alone.
01:02:43I don't think so.
01:02:44Kept her right on the line, Captain.
01:02:46Okay, thank you.
01:02:49What's the matter?
01:02:50I was talking to Malone.
01:02:53Jim, is it too late for me to change my mind?
01:02:56Couldn't we go back to the island or anywhere?
01:02:58No, no, Ann.
01:02:59You've made me see everything very clearly.
01:03:01We must face life, not run away.
01:03:03You have your work to do, and I...
01:03:05Well, I have a matter to clear up.
01:03:08We may be separated for a little while.
01:03:10No, Jim.
01:03:11Whatever it is, we'll face it together.
01:03:16No, Jim.
01:03:19There it is.
01:03:20Sure is.
01:03:21That is the been so distant.
01:03:23There you can see.
01:03:25It is.
01:03:26You sit there inside.
01:03:27In the process itself, we can put a split.
01:03:29There's plenty of ะฟั€ะพะธะทะฒะพะด-
