00:00:38 - Distances are great down under the equator.
00:00:41 The vast reaches of the Pacific hide countless islands
00:00:46 off the old shipping lane, away from the world.
00:00:49 Nights are warm there.
00:00:52 The native songs are soft magic.
00:00:55 A man's life could run so slowly,
00:00:59 so easily in this strange paradise.
00:01:03 That's the way it was.

00:02:17 (audience applauding)
00:02:42 - That was wonderful, Mrs. Moore.
00:02:45 You know, you got any gals around the island?
00:02:54 - Gals?
00:02:56 - Yeah, you know, skirts.
00:02:57 - No, no more dancing, girl.
00:03:01 My mama died a dead long time.
00:03:04 - Oh, you poor kid.
00:03:06 - Mommy no poor.
00:03:09 Mommy pretty quick rich.
00:03:11 Mommy own seven coconut trees.
00:03:13 Also, Mommy a top big boss fella, David.
00:03:16 Got lots of money.
00:03:17 - A capitalist, eh?
00:03:20 Well, pardon me.
00:03:21 - Come in.
00:03:31 - Yes?
00:03:35 - Chef reports it's 10.30, sir.
00:03:37 Carry on.
00:03:38 (door closing)
00:03:40 - I suppose that means you must go.
00:03:48 Please, won't you stay just a little while longer?
00:03:53 You see, we so rarely have guests on this little island.
00:03:58 - Sorry, Mrs. Bowman,
00:03:59 but I'm afraid we really must be going.
00:04:01 - Can't I bribe you?
00:04:02 Before you go, won't you at least have another cup of coffee
00:04:04 or perhaps a burger?
00:04:06 - Oh, I'm bribed.
00:04:07 I sure could go for another piece of that apple pie.
00:04:09 (laughing)
00:04:12 - And I would like another cup of that delicious coffee.
00:04:14 - Oh, wonderful.
00:04:15 It won't take a minute.
00:04:16 - By the way, Mrs. Bowman,
00:04:19 tell me how down in the South Seas
00:04:21 you ever learned the art of making
00:04:22 an old-fashioned New England apple pie?
00:04:25 - By New England, from my mother.
00:04:27 You see, although I am one-fourth Japanese,
00:04:30 one-fourth Spanish,
00:04:32 I'm also one-half American.
00:04:35 - Well, in my book, you're five-fourths swell.
00:04:37 (laughing)
00:04:40 - Mr. Bailey has managed to blush, I hope.
00:04:44 - Yes, sir.
00:04:44 - I think that was a very nice blush, Inspector Bailey.
00:04:49 And a very nice compliment.
00:04:50 And now, if this crisis has passed,
00:04:53 let you and me go to the kitchen and make some coffee,
00:04:56 shall we?
00:04:57 And David, why don't you show Captain Morgan your telescope?
00:05:00 Captain Morgan, David has the most wonderful telescope.
00:05:03 What is it, 12-inch refractor type?
00:05:06 Well, anyway, it's a wonderful instrument.
00:05:08 And come on, while they're sawgazing,
00:05:10 let's just make some coffee, shall we?
00:05:11 - Oh, wonderful.
00:05:12 12-inch refractor, that's no plaything.
00:05:17 ♪ Til I extend the CD ♪
00:05:19 ♪ Calling the galah ♪
00:05:21 ♪ Coming the galah ♪

00:05:29 - Will you pardon me a minute?
00:05:30 It's the trading post calling.
00:05:32 I won't keep you a moment.
00:05:34 - That's perfectly all right.
00:05:36 (door slams)
00:05:39 - No cologne, no tortilla.
00:05:42 Go ahead.
00:05:43 - The plates for camera, the rice, potatoes, and coffee,
00:05:50 you will get after great delay.
00:05:52 Three sing-song house girls bribes Cooner Captain,
00:05:56 take them Tahiti.
00:05:58 Very sorry, David.
00:05:59 Goodbye.
00:06:00 - I suppose that sort of thing is always happening.
00:06:05 - Yes, quite often.
00:06:07 Down here on the islands, you have to have patience.
00:06:09 I've learned that.
00:06:10 - I've got it.
00:06:14 Now I know who you are.
00:06:17 I've seen your name in print a number of times.
00:06:19 I remember an astronomical volume,
00:06:23 "Island Universes."
00:06:26 Yes, that was the title.
00:06:27 Boy, you are the famous David Bowman, aren't you?
00:06:32 - No, Captain.
00:06:34 I'm the ne'er-do-well David Bowman, Jr., Barry Jr.
00:06:38 My father was a great name in astronomy, great man.
00:06:44 He tried to follow in his footsteps,
00:06:48 but his stride was too long for him.
00:06:51 - Come now, aren't you being a little unfair to yourself?
00:06:54 - I had a theory once, a big theory,
00:06:57 meant to track it down, prove it is true.
00:07:00 True.
00:07:04 Now I have six bourbons and look at the moon.
00:07:08 Well, let's look at it.
00:07:11 You first, Captain.
00:07:14 At this time of the year, the moon is at its best.
00:07:18 The atmospheric conditions in the islands now
00:07:20 are most favorable for astronomical studies.
00:07:23 - Boy, this is amazing.
00:07:29 - Have a drink?
00:07:30 - No, thank you.
00:07:31 - Boy, it's a complete laboratory.
00:07:33 - Yes, it's quite complete.
00:07:35 My father installed it here years ago.
00:07:39 Well, Captain, there's your moon.
00:07:45 Tonight you can almost reach out and touch it.
00:07:49 - This is remarkably clear.
00:07:53 I've seen dead people.
00:07:59 I've seen dead things, but never anything as dead as that.
00:08:04 Unless, perhaps, the moon and I have much in common.
00:08:12 Of course, I always have my six bourbons
00:08:15 to provide that essential inner fire.
00:08:18 - You're sweet.
00:08:20 Now, Anthony, won't you tell me about your work?
00:08:25 Sounds fascinating to me.
00:08:28 - Oh, it wouldn't be of any interest to you.
00:08:31 Honest, it wouldn't.
00:08:32 - Oh, but it would.
00:08:34 What about this directional thing you're looking for?
00:08:35 What is it?
00:08:36 - Well, I guess you'd call it
00:08:40 one of the most dangerous weapons of modern warfare.
00:08:43 It's a directional shortwave transmitter.
00:08:46 You see, they're the babies that have been
00:08:49 guiding the Jap subs and bombers straight to our convoys.
00:08:53 That's why our men searched this island in your house.
00:08:57 You see, we feel sure that at least four of these
00:09:00 transmitters are scattered in this Pacific.
00:09:03 And believe me, we're gonna find 'em.
00:09:05 But it's a tough job.
00:09:07 You see, anybody can locate a little set like yours,
00:09:12 but not this directional baby.
00:09:14 It's got special antenna that shoots a radio beam
00:09:16 right where you want it,
00:09:17 not just broadcasted to the whole cockeyed world.
00:09:20 Look, Mrs. Bowman, let me show you how it works.
00:09:23 Here, use this.
00:09:26 (clears throat)
00:09:29 Here, now, suppose this is the horizon, the Earth.
00:09:35 It's getting smaller every day.
00:09:38 Now, this is the transmitter A.
00:09:42 It shoots a beam like a searchlight or artillery gun
00:09:47 up at an angle and strikes what we call
00:09:49 the heavy side layer of gases in the stratosphere.
00:09:53 And, well, because of electrical laws,
00:09:57 the beam is reflected back down to Earth
00:09:59 at a given but distant point, B.
00:10:03 And all in between is blank, always come down.
00:10:06 - So all around, even close and silent?
00:10:09 - Not a peep.
00:10:10 It's a tough nut to crack.
00:10:13 The Japs will sit out there on one of these little islands
00:10:15 and put the finger on us.
00:10:17 No matter how careful we are to stay beyond the range
00:10:19 of their observation planes, we still get hit.
00:10:22 - Tell me, Ensign, do you have many more
00:10:25 of these islands to search?
00:10:26 They all sound horrible and terrifying to me.
00:10:30 - It's not that bad, Mrs. Bowman.
00:10:34 Tonight we go to Manahiki.
00:10:35 Where we go from there is unpredictable.
00:10:37 I shouldn't have told you that.
00:10:43 I must be crazy.
00:10:50 - Oh, please, Mrs. Bowman, you won't repeat that to anyone.
00:10:53 - Repeat what?
00:10:55 - What is going to Manahiki.
00:10:58 I shouldn't have told you that.
00:11:01 I must be crazy.
00:11:03 That's a Navy secret.
00:11:07 You don't tell those things even to your own mother.
00:11:09 Oh, please, Mrs. Bowman, it's not that I don't trust you,
00:11:19 I don't understand why you're saying a thing like that.
00:11:21 I know better than to say anything like...
00:11:23 What's that?
00:11:25 - Oh, that's nothing.
00:11:26 A silly generating system.
00:11:28 Every once in a while it seems to get tired,
00:11:30 but it'll be all right in a moment.
00:11:32 - David, David.
00:11:35 - Yes, I know, it's the generator again.
00:11:39 Looking for the flashlight.
00:11:40 Do you know where it is?
00:11:41 - Yes, I saw it over on the table, there by the window.
00:11:43 - Oh, I'll get it.
00:11:48 Oh, there they are now.
00:11:49 Come in.
00:11:51 - Yes? - Captain Morgan,
00:11:56 you're wanted on board, sir.
00:11:57 Radio standing by from Commander Wilson.
00:11:59 - Carry on.
00:12:00 - Bless the bridge, mister, that we're leaving.
00:12:04 - Aye, aye, sir.
00:12:05 - Goodbye.
00:12:08 - Good night, Mrs. Bowman.
00:12:09 Thanks for a wonderful evening.
00:12:11 And the apple pie.
00:12:12 - Good night, Ensign.
00:12:13 If I had the faintest idea of your destination,
00:12:15 I'd fake one and send it to you, sir.
00:12:17 I suppose that's one of your Navy secrets, hm?
00:12:19 - Mrs. Bowman, you're...
00:12:21 Good night. - Good night, Ensign.
00:12:24 - Good night, Mr. Bowman.
00:12:26 Thanks for everything.
00:12:27 - Good night.
00:12:28 - Thanks again, both of you, for a lovely evening.
00:12:31 And again, accept my apology
00:12:32 for having to search your house.
00:12:33 - Oh, that's all right.
00:12:34 - Goodbye. - Goodbye, Ensign.
00:12:36 - Goodbye. - Goodbye.
00:12:37 - You make me kind of funny all evening.
00:12:46 - Is that just my imagination?
00:12:48 - Who's unhappy?
00:12:49 Life's gone wrong.
00:12:51 Marrying out of line, that way's no good.
00:12:55 He's on the beach, same as any other drifter in Pango Pango.
00:12:58 Only he's on the beach in a clean shirt.
00:13:00 - They're gone.
00:13:08 - Yes.
00:13:10 In one hour,
00:13:12 white-gossip.
00:13:13 (clock ticking)
00:13:28 - You were both very excellent.
00:13:30 I would suggest, however, David,
00:13:33 that in future occasions of this time,
00:13:36 you would show a little more affection for my wife.
00:13:40 You may go to bed, Lord Bishop.
00:13:42 - Good night, Arturo San.
00:13:45 - Good night.
00:13:46 - I'm sorry for you, David.
00:13:56 You show no sign of relaxing in this unfortunate position.
00:14:01 I'm unhappy for you.
00:14:02 - I show even less.
00:14:06 The sign of the courage to kill you
00:14:10 that makes me unhappy.
00:14:12 (speaking in foreign language)
00:14:16 - And time baby spoke the truth.
00:14:25 The destroyer is bound for Maneheke.
00:14:29 (gun firing)
00:14:39 - You think I'm a weakling,
00:14:41 a fool and a drunkard.
00:14:43 You think you got me lit.
00:14:45 Well, you're wrong, Mastroo.
00:14:47 (shouting)
00:14:50 (clock ticking)
00:15:04 - What is it?
00:15:06 (speaking in foreign language)
00:15:18 (upbeat music)
00:15:33 (speaking in foreign language)
00:15:39 (upbeat music)

00:16:05 (airplane engine roaring)
00:16:30 (clock ticking)
00:16:44 - David.
00:16:45 David.
00:16:49 - Yeah?
00:16:51 (clock ticking)
00:16:54 - I've been asleep.
00:16:57 - Oh.
00:16:58 A little after 12.
00:17:01 What's that?
00:17:04 - I meant to tell you David,
00:17:06 I spent exhausting hours today in research.
00:17:10 That research included your father's esteemed books.
00:17:15 - But David.
00:17:16 No supernova has ever been charted
00:17:20 in the Andromeda region you were in last night.
00:17:23 - No?
00:17:24 - No.
00:17:25 You found a new star David,
00:17:28 just bursting into life.
00:17:30 I'll help you take case data,
00:17:33 and you can make a report to the society.
00:17:37 - That will be good.
00:17:38 - That'll be great.
00:17:40 - I should resent the hatred you have for me David,
00:17:46 but I don't.
00:17:48 I understand.
00:17:50 I should have foreseen
00:17:52 when we took over this island of yours and your house,
00:17:56 that the declaration of war with America
00:17:59 would breed patriotism.
00:18:01 But you're not really patriotic David.
00:18:05 You just see you should be patriotic.
00:18:08 Like your father,
00:18:11 you are intrinsically against war.
00:18:14 And because you can't be against war
00:18:18 and be patriotic at the same time,
00:18:22 a great battle rages in your conscience.
00:18:26 It is a completely unnecessary battle.
00:18:39 You must only use your intentions
00:18:44 to put your conscience at ease.
00:18:48 (dramatic music)
00:18:51 - Trying to hate me?
00:18:56 Trying to be patriotic
00:19:00 under these circumstances
00:19:03 is like the useless beating of wings by a bird in a cage.
00:19:08 You're a helpless prisoner here David.
00:19:16 Once you were my best pupil.
00:19:19 No one respected me more than you did.
00:19:23 You used to believe in the things I told you.
00:19:27 Believe me now,
00:19:30 and you'll be much happier.
00:19:33 I say to you as your teacher,
00:19:39 David, be logical.
00:19:44 Say to your conscience,
00:19:46 yes, I'm patriotic,
00:19:50 but I can do nothing about it.
00:19:54 - So why should I not enjoy this island?
00:19:57 - Come David, be logical.
00:20:04 Let you and I find our consolation
00:20:09 and whisper it.
00:20:13 In the sky.
00:20:15 Now let us see David,
00:20:20 your new star is in Andromeda.
00:20:23 I'll find it for you.
00:20:29 No, you'll find it yourself.
00:20:33 Come on David, I'll take you later.
00:20:36 Come on.
00:20:40 - So, are you ready David?
00:20:43 - Are the setting circles correct?
00:20:46 - Yes David.
00:20:48 - Get the readings for Azimuth and Right Ascension.
00:20:55 - The sky from stars.
00:21:04 - The sky from stars.
00:21:09 - And the stars from bombs.
00:21:11 - I guess all over the world now,
00:21:16 anybody looks up to the stars, I think.
00:21:19 - Bombs.
00:21:20 - Looks like we're getting out of this land of Roman orcas just in time.
00:21:25 I'm sure if those babies don't get in their heads to bomb us.
00:21:27 - They won't bomb us, we ain't worth it.
00:21:29 - Anyway, I don't care.
00:21:31 - Give me a drink. - You got it.
00:21:33 - Thanks.
00:21:34 - Hey, what's that little scream about?
00:21:37 - What's that little squeak for all of us Skipper doing?
00:21:39 We're heading into shore.
00:21:41 What's he stopping here for?
00:21:42 - For me.
00:21:43 This is where I'm leaving you if it's Nucaloa.
00:21:45 - Hey Skipper, you cacking Nucaloa?
00:21:49 - Be ready in five minutes.
00:21:51 - What's the idea?
00:21:52 - Ain't you going to Tahiti with us?
00:21:54 - Yeah, what's so much on Nucaloa?
00:21:57 - A guy lives there.
00:21:59 - Thought of a gentleman I guess you'd call him.
00:22:02 - Here, hold this for me will you Edie?
00:22:04 No fooling kids.
00:22:06 He is a gentleman.
00:22:08 Anyway, I don't want to go to Tahiti.
00:22:11 I want to go home.
00:22:15 Back to the United States.
00:22:17 And there's only one way I know how to get there.
00:22:21 This guy.
00:22:22 He's got money and he's got a boat.
00:22:27 (chains rattling)
00:22:30 - Every day you become more vague.
00:22:50 More American in your childhood.
00:22:55 Please stop this admiration of yourself.
00:22:58 You displease me very much.
00:23:01 - Yes, Monsieur Osama.
00:23:03 - Mr. Macau, I'm a little tired.
00:23:07 - Shut up.
00:23:08 - Take your hands off me.
00:23:10 (speaking in foreign language)
00:23:13 I don't like to wrestle.
00:23:14 All I want to do is see David Bowman on the set.
00:23:17 - Will you shut up?
00:23:18 Monsieur Osama.
00:23:23 Monsieur Osama.
00:23:24 - David Bowman does live here, doesn't he?
00:23:30 All I want to do is see him, understand?
00:23:32 - Will you shut up?
00:23:33 - Okay, I won't talk for a week.
00:23:35 - Stand back.
00:23:39 (speaking in foreign language)
00:23:41 - David.
00:23:52 - Huh?
00:23:53 - David, there's a young lady to see you.
00:23:56 - Oh, go.
00:23:58 - The girl, just called the girl.
00:24:00 She just came ashore from the island school.
00:24:21 (phone ringing)
00:24:23 - Hello.
00:24:43 - Hello.
00:24:46 (phone ringing)
00:24:48 - You don't remember me, do you?
00:24:54 Tony Chase?
00:24:56 - Well, I'm half asleep.
00:25:00 - You don't?
00:25:03 - No.
00:25:06 I'm afraid you'll have to help me out.
00:25:09 - You had a flop of a toothache, remember?
00:25:14 - I got you some old clothes for it.
00:25:16 - Tortilla, sure.
00:25:21 In the Salona, Tortilla.
00:25:24 You helped me find a dentist.
00:25:26 Sure, I remember that much.
00:25:28 Have a drink.
00:25:29 I haven't had a toothache since.
00:25:32 It was quite a while ago, wasn't it?
00:25:35 Well, here's to Tortilla.
00:25:39 - You don't have to thank me.
00:25:42 You don't remember anything you said to me that night, do you?
00:25:45 - Well, as I said, it was...
00:25:47 - Do you?
00:25:48 - No, Tony, I don't remember a thing.
00:25:52 I was...
00:25:54 well, awful drunk.
00:25:57 - You said...
00:26:00 You said that...
00:26:09 You said that...
00:26:10 You said that if I ever needed a friend to call on you...
00:26:18 - Did I?
00:26:19 - I guess men say that.
00:26:22 I mean, it's one of the things you say to girls you meet on the wing?
00:26:26 - No, even if I was drunk when I said it.
00:26:29 Amen.
00:26:30 - Mr... - What is it? Money?
00:26:35 - A little of that, maybe.
00:26:37 But mostly...
00:26:39 You've got what money can't buy in this part of the world since Pearl Harbor.
00:26:43 - What's that?
00:26:44 - A boat.
00:26:45 A boat that's free and able to get to the United States.
00:26:48 - I haven't got the Albatross any longer, Tony.
00:26:52 They took it away from me.
00:26:54 I owed them some money.
00:26:56 - Then you're sort of stuck here and can't get out?
00:27:01 Not me.
00:27:03 - Yes.
00:27:04 That's it.
00:27:06 I am sort of stuck here.
00:27:08 But you don't have to be stuck here.
00:27:11 I've got some money.
00:27:13 I'll radio for you to be picked up.
00:27:15 Help yourself to another burger.
00:27:17 - No thanks.
00:27:18 That first quarter you poured me was just a thing.
00:27:20 Say...
00:27:21 Say, any reason I can't ask you a question or two?
00:27:27 - No, go ahead.
00:27:28 - You got a chap servant.
00:27:31 A slim guy?
00:27:34 - Yes, he's sort of a servant.
00:27:36 - Well, you'd better get on that radio of yours and call the Marines because something's very fishy.
00:27:40 Two little rising suns just yanked me around out there and then did a quick jabber-jabber with a slim one.
00:27:46 And the two little ones were carrying regulation-jabbed army rifles.
00:27:49 I know because a sailor friend of mine had a captive one.
00:27:52 - Well, Tony, the fact is...
00:27:55 - The fact is what?
00:27:58 - That the Marines hunt their own jabs.
00:28:02 - You're kidding.
00:28:04 - No, I'm not.
00:28:05 I came here to get as far away as I could from the kind of messes men get themselves into.
00:28:10 Let them fight.
00:28:11 Let them kill each other off.
00:28:12 Only leave me out of it.
00:28:13 I don't want any part of it.
00:28:14 - Maybe I should have been a judge in a dog show.
00:28:20 I don't do so good judging men.
00:28:22 - Well, what of it?
00:28:23 I hate war and everything it does to people.
00:28:25 I hate fighting.
00:28:26 - Listen, mister, you talk like crazy.
00:28:28 You gotta fight.
00:28:29 Everybody's gotta fight.
00:28:30 I got a rule I learned young.
00:28:32 Keep your fist ready.
00:28:33 Keep it cocked.
00:28:34 So when some mug is getting ready to suck you, you can suck him first.
00:28:37 - That, by the way, puts civilization back about 2,000 years.
00:28:42 - That, by the way, is my religion.
00:28:45 So suppose I take a big load off that gentle heart of yours and borrow you some.
00:28:51 - No, please.
00:28:52 The radio is out of order.
00:28:54 - Maybe I can fix it.
00:28:57 - Miss Chase?
00:28:58 - Careful, I bruise easy.
00:29:03 - Missy, you got a servant problem.
00:29:06 Make him be good.
00:29:07 - Miss Chase, you are slow to understand.
00:29:14 Unfortunately, you have blundered into a situation that is most serious.
00:29:19 Also, you are sharp-eyed.
00:29:22 You noticed that.
00:29:25 Sharp-eyed.
00:29:26 You noticed the rifles.
00:29:28 So you are a prisoner here, indefinitely.
00:29:33 - Stop working.
00:29:39 Look out.
00:29:40 - Toscani!
00:29:41 Very great harm will come to you if you make any attempt to escape or to signal boats offshore.
00:29:51 - Otherwise...
00:29:55 - If you behave, I think we can enjoy having you here.
00:29:59 - How cozy.
00:30:09 And you're in on it.
00:30:12 You know those big, fat, slimy sea snails the Japs eat?
00:30:18 They haven't even a shell.
00:30:21 The slimy guck.
00:30:24 - Well, you're a little one.
00:30:26 Where do I sleep?
00:30:28 - You can have my room upstairs.
00:30:30 I'll sleep down here.
00:30:32 - No thanks, mister.
00:30:33 I'll sleep down here.
00:30:34 Get me a blanket.
00:30:36 - You'll need a pillow.
00:30:38 Don't try to get away.
00:30:44 You'll be shot.

00:31:30 - Good morning, David.
00:31:32 Wild and thorium.
00:31:39 Beautiful, isn't it?
00:31:42 - Yes, very beautiful.
00:31:45 - Beauty of flowers, stars.
00:31:50 - Please comfort me a little when I am pained by ugliness and cruelty.
00:31:55 The rest is for you, David.
00:31:58 - I slept only once briefly last night and dreamed of a ship on fire.
00:32:05 - I did not dream at all.
00:32:08 - Masarot! Masarot!
00:32:12 [speaking Japanese]
00:32:15 [music]
00:32:17 [speaking Japanese]
00:32:29 - The sailing crew picked him up at dawn.
00:32:34 The only survivor, they say.
00:32:36 - Coleman, get on your radio.
00:32:43 Call Navy Station.
00:32:44 I get it.
00:32:52 We were dumb.
00:32:54 But I did it.
00:32:58 I did it.
00:33:00 They're all dead.
00:33:02 Thank God.
00:33:04 Captain Morgan! Captain Morgan!
00:33:10 Captain Morgan!
00:33:12 [crying]
00:33:14 - Do something! Don't just stand there! Do something!
00:33:21 [speaking Japanese]
00:33:23 - Please, Masarot.
00:33:32 - David, it is hopeless. He's dying.
00:33:35 - Haven't you anything at least to stop his pain?
00:33:38 [gunshots]
00:33:42 - Now, there is no pain.
00:33:44 - Masarot!
00:33:47 - Perhaps you had a better suggestion to stop his suffering.

00:33:59 [music]
00:34:01 - Lottie?
00:34:27 Lottie?
00:34:28 - Got a cigarette?
00:34:39 I said, have you got a cigarette?
00:34:46 Oh, don't get up. All I want is a cigarette.
00:34:50 [music]
00:34:52 - What do I do about a light?
00:34:59 - Oh, I'm sorry.
00:35:01 Here.
00:35:04 - You look kind of sick, buddy.
00:35:11 What happened about the wounded officer?
00:35:17 - He's dead. I told you.
00:35:19 - Nobody told me nothing.
00:35:20 I woke up hearing somebody jabbering about a yakukuriki.
00:35:24 Just in case you're not half-jabbed, that means wounded officer.
00:35:28 I suppose that shot was him dying.
00:35:32 Nice people.
00:35:37 - There was nothing we could do for him.
00:35:40 - Oh, sure. A mercy killing. Look.
00:35:43 The less I had to do with all of you, the better.
00:35:46 Just a couple of questions.
00:35:48 Who's the Eurasian woman?
00:35:49 - She's Matsuru's wife. Look.
00:35:52 - Matsuru's the swim-jap?
00:35:55 I got it.
00:35:58 Oh, by the way, do I have to eat with the family,
00:36:02 or can I go catch myself a raw fish?
00:36:04 - You can eat with us, of course.
00:36:06 - I thought maybe it'd be easier if you and your gentle jack friend
00:36:11 just decided that I was too badly wounded, too.
00:36:17 (sad music)
00:36:19 - You sad, boss fellow?
00:36:45 (sad music)
00:36:47 You won't go away from Nukuloa?
00:36:51 - Yes, Maui.
00:36:53 I'd give my life to get away from Nukuloa.
00:36:56 And probably will.
00:36:58 - Hmm?
00:37:00 - Nothing, Maui.
00:37:02 - If you go, you'll take Maui beside you?
00:37:06 - Yes, Maui, but no girl, no both, Maui.
00:37:13 - But if you have both, you'll take Maui, huh?
00:37:17 - Of course, Maui, I'll take you.
00:37:19 When and if I leave this island, you go with me.
00:37:22 Wherever I go.
00:37:24 I promised your father I'd always take care of you.
00:37:27 And I will.
00:37:29 - Maui find both.
00:37:31 Japanese boat, all hid.
00:37:33 - I know, they have the sailing probe, but we can't get it.
00:37:36 Too many guards.
00:37:38 - That sailing probe Maui find.
00:37:41 - Maui find another boat.
00:37:42 All hid in cove on the south island.
00:37:44 Little boat, but good.
00:38:08 - Tonight after we eat, I'll be up in the observatory.
00:38:11 You be sure there are no guards.
00:38:13 And then you whistle.
00:38:15 And I'll come and meet you, right here.
00:38:18 Understand?
00:38:20 We'll take a look at this boat.

00:44:08 - And now from the Pacific.
00:44:10 Tokyo claims the sinking of a United States destroyer
00:44:12 of the Kearney class in the vicinity of the Samoas.
00:44:15 Washington news officials admit a destroyer
00:44:16 overdue at Monohiki.
00:44:18 This is the area that has been proving
00:44:19 increasingly dangerous to Allied shipping.
00:44:21 Lightning-like stabs by bomber forces
00:44:23 have taken a heavy toll.
00:44:25 A late dispatch on this item.
00:44:27 A US patrol plane reports sighting an oil slick
00:44:30 and scattered wreckage near Monohiki, but no survivors.
00:44:33 - I'm just beginning to get what's going on around here.
00:44:39 Sure, I mean.
00:44:41 - Miss Chase.
00:44:43 Turn that radio on immediately.
00:44:45 - Sure, that's it.
00:44:46 Somewhere on this island, Mr. Matsu,
00:44:49 you and your little brown men have got
00:44:50 one of those new radio gadgets.
00:44:52 The kind our Navy boys are hunting for.
00:44:54 Haven't you?
00:44:56 - Turn that radio on.
00:44:57 You hear me?
00:44:58 (speaking in foreign language)
00:45:02 - I was right.
00:45:12 I understood everything he said.
00:45:14 - You're going to bomb a convoy.
00:45:16 - You just think you're going to bomb a convoy,
00:45:18 but this time you won't get away with it.
00:45:19 This time I'll--
00:45:20 - Shut up, Jones!
00:45:21 (door slams)
00:45:25 (light music)
00:45:29 (door slams)
00:45:56 - Name no one but yourself, David.
00:45:59 (speaking in foreign language)
00:46:03 (dramatic music)
00:46:04 - You devil, you--
00:46:05 - David!
00:46:06 - You're not a soldier fighting soldiers, you're a murderer!
00:46:09 - David, David, don't kill him!
00:46:10 - You and your kind have driven the whole world mad!
00:46:13 The same kind of madness is going to kill you!
00:46:16 (dramatic music)

00:47:01 - Get up, get up!
00:47:09 Open that panel, Matsuru.
00:47:14 We're going down into that radio room.
00:47:17 There are two other doors to open.
00:47:19 They are all steel and they open only by signal.
00:47:23 - David!
00:47:24 Matsuru lies about the panel and the doors.
00:47:28 They do not open by signal.
00:47:30 They open by key.
00:47:32 You'll find it in his pocket.
00:47:34 - David!
00:47:35 David.
00:47:38 Put away that gun.
00:47:42 It's not in your nature.
00:47:45 It's not in your nature to kill.
00:47:47 So put away that gun
00:47:51 and I promise you,
00:47:53 I shall forget this whole incident.
00:47:57 (gun firing)
00:48:03 (gun firing)
00:48:05 (dramatic music)

00:49:34 - CQ.
00:49:35 CQ.
00:49:37 CQ.
00:49:38 Following the convoy.
00:49:40 Longitude 155 degrees.
00:49:43 Latitude 10 south.
00:49:45 Come in, please.
00:49:46 25 meters.
00:49:50 Come in, please.
00:49:53 (gun firing)
00:49:59 (gun firing)
00:50:01 (dramatic music)
00:50:17 (dramatic music)
00:50:26 (dramatic music)
00:50:29 - I may not be getting to them at all.
00:50:32 - What can you do?
00:50:34 - Take a chance if they do hear me.
00:50:39 CQ.
00:50:42 The convoy.
00:50:43 I realize you may be under radio blackout,
00:50:47 but you must do as I say.
00:50:49 You are in great danger.
00:50:53 I am certain that Japanese bombers
00:50:55 have been called to attack you.
00:50:57 The size and position of your convoy are known.
00:51:00 You must scatter the convoy
00:51:02 and get away as fast as possible.
00:51:03 Please believe me.
00:51:04 I have forced my way
00:51:07 into operating this directional transmitter.
00:51:09 It was this station that sank the destroyer
00:51:12 off Monehike last night.
00:51:13 - Please answer, so that I know you're getting this.
00:51:17 (gun firing)
00:51:22 - I don't like it.
00:51:23 Somebody's overheard our orders instructing the convoy.
00:51:26 It could be they're trying to get our exact position.
00:51:29 It could be a trap.
00:51:31 Don't answer.
00:51:33 - What's the matter?
00:51:41 Why don't they answer?
00:51:42 (guns firing)
00:51:45 (speaking in foreign language)
00:52:12 (speaking in foreign language)
00:52:14 - Tony, Tony, wake up.
00:52:32 - What is it?
00:52:35 - Listen.
00:52:36 (speaking in foreign language)
00:52:39 (speaking in foreign language)
00:52:41 - What did they say?
00:52:43 - I didn't get it all, but it's Obama's place, wait.
00:52:45 (speaking in foreign language)
00:52:47 - David.
00:52:53 They're still holding the bomber squadron
00:52:55 waiting for the exact position.
00:52:57 They're asking Matsuru to give the position.
00:52:59 The convoy is safe, David.
00:53:01 (dramatic music)
00:53:05 (dramatic music)
00:53:08 - That's it.
00:53:33 (dramatic music)
00:53:36 - Come on, Tony, come on.
00:53:52 - What are you going to do?
00:53:57 - The only thing I can do.
00:53:59 Try to reach the convoy again.
00:54:00 It won't take them 10 minutes to break through
00:54:02 the door to that generator.
00:54:03 (buzzing)
00:54:05 CQ, the convoy.
00:54:10 CQ, the convoy, come in, please.
00:54:13 CQ, the convoy.
00:54:19 Calling the convoy, CQ.
00:54:22 (screaming)
00:54:29 - Why don't we smash the radio?
00:54:31 - Wouldn't do any good, Tony, to smash the radio.
00:54:33 They can repair it.
00:54:34 It took them six hours, even 10 hours.
00:54:36 The convoy would still be only another 80 miles away.
00:54:40 That's 15 minutes for a bomb.
00:54:43 (speaking in foreign language)
00:54:49 (speaking in foreign language)
00:54:53 (dramatic music)
00:54:59 - Banahiki to Commander McDonald.
00:55:14 Banahiki to Commander McDonald, do not answer.
00:55:16 Official dispatch, Navy Intelligence
00:55:18 to Commander McDonald as follows.
00:55:20 Regarding unidentified shortwave X-Mitter
00:55:22 in operation beginning 1242 AM this day,
00:55:25 please advise Commander McDonald, leave convoy.

00:55:37 Only white resident known to Navy Intelligence,
00:55:40 David Foleman, American citizen, astronomer, age 36.
00:55:43 Proceed at once.

00:55:46 (dramatic music)
00:55:49 - What is...

00:55:59 longitude 154 degrees west, nine degrees south.
00:56:02 Only white resident known to Navy Intelligence,

00:56:09 Proceed at once.
00:56:10 (door slams)
00:56:12 - Toni, are you afraid to die?
00:56:20 - I don't think so.
00:56:24 - It's either the troop ships and that convoy or us.
00:56:30 One of their battleships or cruisers will talk
00:56:35 and they've got to.
00:56:37 And they're in range.
00:56:40 There's only one thing we can do.
00:56:42 Ask them to blow this power plant off the map.
00:56:47 - What are we waiting for?
00:56:58 - Well, this is it.
00:57:07 (door slams)
00:57:09 - David Foleman, commander McDonald.
00:57:14 Foleman on Nukamoa to commander McDonald.
00:57:19 I've just heard Manahiki's message.
00:57:23 You can't possibly get here in time
00:57:26 to save your convoy or troop ships.
00:57:29 This island is a Japanese base.
00:57:32 I am a prisoner here.
00:57:35 And I'm barricaded in the control room of the radio
00:57:39 that sank the destroyer off Manahiki.
00:57:42 (airplane engine roaring)
00:57:47 You have five minutes or less
00:57:52 to stop the Japanese on this island
00:57:55 from breaking through the last bulkhead door
00:57:58 to this control room.
00:58:01 This control room is located under the knoll
00:58:06 100 yards east of the small white house in the pond.
00:58:11 You must understand.
00:58:14 If you are in range and can see us,
00:58:19 you must open fire at once.
00:58:22 But hurry.
00:58:23 You must hurry.
00:58:25 Please answer.
00:58:27 (airplane engine roaring)
00:58:30 - Man your battle stations.
00:58:39 - Man your battle stations.
00:58:41 (upbeat music)
00:58:44 - Forward battery ready to fire.
00:58:51 - Forward battery ready to fire.

00:59:03 - Range 26,400 yards.
00:59:06 - Range 26,400 yards.
00:59:10 - Mr. Baumann, we are ready to fire.
00:59:12 You are now in command of my ship.
00:59:14 (banging)
00:59:19 (banging)
00:59:22 - I figure it'll take at least four salvos.
00:59:33 We are deep underground.
00:59:36 - Well done, Mr. Baumann.
00:59:38 You are in the best tradition of the United States Navy.
00:59:41 You're a brave man.
00:59:46 - Forward battery.
00:59:48 - Forward battery.

01:00:43 (siren blaring)
01:00:49 - Baby.
01:00:57 I'm afraid.
01:01:00 - Don't be afraid.
01:01:09 - I'll try not to think.
01:01:11 (siren blaring)
01:01:21 - Now I remember that night in Tuti,
01:01:27 Tony, and everything I said.
01:01:29 - What did you say, David?
01:01:35 - I said that you were beautiful.
01:01:39 That you were lovely.
01:01:41 More lovely than anyone I'd ever known.
01:01:46 More noble than anyone I'd ever known.
01:01:51 Who had I ever known
01:01:56 who could take in hearts as friends
01:01:59 bitterness and disappointment and sorrow?
01:02:06 And make of them a song,
01:02:08 a song of defiance, of hope.
01:02:11 Of tenderness and love.
01:02:17 And then, remember?
01:02:24 Listen.
01:02:27 Tony, I love you.
01:02:34 (siren blaring)
01:02:37 - You never said anything like that.
01:02:42 - Well, if I did, I sure did.
01:02:48 - David?
