00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00Hello, Dobby.
00:01:22Watson.
00:01:23Professor.
00:01:24Commander.
00:01:26How is the captain?
00:01:27We don't know, sir.
00:01:28The doctor's with him now.
00:01:29We haven't had any report on him since early this morning.
00:01:32I think we'd better go up.
00:01:49I don't think I should leave you, Dr. Howard.
00:01:51But there's nothing more you can do for him.
00:01:52Well, that's just it.
00:01:53Nothing seems to help him.
00:01:54You've been treating him since we left Panama, and he's worse.
00:01:57He might be a girl.
00:01:57Oh, I don't mean to say that you haven't done all your can, doctor, but medicine can't cure his mind.
00:02:15Hello, doctor.
00:02:17How is he today?
00:02:18This morning is rational as you or I.
00:02:21But now, I don't understand it.
00:02:25Unlike any mental case I have ever seen.
00:02:28And there are times when he keeps muttering Professor Grimm's name to himself.
00:02:33I don't like it, sir.
00:02:34Well, it's probably overworked.
00:02:37Captain Holling hasn't had a vacation in years.
00:02:39Just the same, I would advise that you relieve him of command on this trip, Mr. Watson.
00:02:44When McGuttrick needs him more than it ever did.
00:03:00I thought you were going to meet me ashore for dinner last night.
00:03:03He was very bad, Cliff.
00:03:04I couldn't leave him.
00:03:05Was Donnie a patient, too?
00:03:06You had dinner on board with him.
00:03:07What difference does it make?
00:03:10It's too bad it's muting.
00:03:12What?
00:03:13Taking a poke at your first officer.
00:03:16Idiot.
00:03:17Of course, Lyle.
00:03:18If I've got to wait till I get a chief's birth before I get a break.
00:03:21Oh, you're talking like a child, Cliff.
00:03:24Well, I know you haven't given me any time lately.
00:03:28Silly.
00:03:30What is it, Captain?
00:03:34I don't know.
00:03:37But it's here.
00:03:42It's like the engines pounding.
00:03:48Well, I'll be all right.
00:03:50Don't you think you ought to go away for a rest?
00:03:53Do your world of good, Captain.
00:03:55Vacation's just what you need.
00:03:56So that you're going to have my ship, eh?
00:04:02I've been watching you.
00:04:04Always waiting your chance to take her away from me.
00:04:09No, no, Captain.
00:04:10Downey's right.
00:04:11You need a rest.
00:04:12Then you will wait before making Professor Grimson's experiment?
00:04:17Well, I'm afraid we've gone too far for that.
00:04:20You mean that you'd let my ship go to sea without me?
00:04:26It will only be for one voyage.
00:04:28Why?
00:04:31You can't do that.
00:04:33Why, for 20 years we've been together.
00:04:36I've nursed her through storms.
00:04:40Lived with her.
00:04:42Why, all that you ever did was to build her.
00:04:45But she's not your ship.
00:04:47She's mine.
00:04:48And now you think that she can run without me, eh?
00:04:52Without anyone, Captain Holling.
00:04:55You're not going through with it.
00:04:57Gentlemen, please.
00:04:58You'll never live to do it.
00:05:01You won't live to...
00:05:02Miss Keene, please.
00:05:07Penny?
00:05:08I'll be all right.
00:05:10Come on, Captain.
00:05:11Penny?
00:05:11Yes, I...
00:05:13You'll let it.
00:05:15You'll let it.
00:05:18I'll be all right.
00:05:19Penny?
00:05:25Yes, I'll be all right.
00:05:26Let me a glass of water, Miss Keene.
00:05:32Perhaps you gentlemen better leave me alone with him.
00:05:35I'll arrange to send him to a sanitarium, Mr. Watson.
00:05:38I'm sorry we waited this long.
00:05:45I'd give anything in the world if this hadn't happened.
00:05:52It's up to you now, Captain Downey.
00:05:55Thank you, sir.
00:05:57I appreciate the honor, but...
00:05:59It isn't easy to accept it under these circumstances.
00:06:03In his right mind, he'd want you to carry on.
00:06:06You and Rogers.
00:06:08You'll take Downey's place as chief mate.
00:06:11Well, thank you, sir.
00:06:12I have every confidence in both of you.
00:06:14You understand, gentlemen, that what you are about to see must remain a secret.
00:06:38Yes, sir.
00:06:39Captain Downey, you sail tomorrow.
00:06:42Captain Downing, you sail tomorrow as usual.
00:07:10At 9 o'clock when the gathering is at sea, it will be operated by Professor Grimson from his laboratory.
00:07:18My work is finished, Watson. It is now up to S-505.
00:07:26What is S-505?
00:07:29The tube controls the energy which will operate it by radio.
00:07:40It's uncanny, Professor. It's trial.
00:07:48Watson, don't forget to install this telescope in the cabin so that you can keep in constant contact with the laboratory.
00:07:54That's all arranged for.
00:08:00What is S-505?
00:08:06What is S-505?
00:08:10What is S-505?
00:08:12What is S-505?
00:08:16What is S-505?
00:08:28What is S-505?
00:08:30What is S-505?
00:08:32What is S-505?
00:08:34What is S-505?
00:08:47Can't you get the wavelength?
00:08:48I'm trying to, Your Excellency.
00:08:49I'm trying to, Your Excellency.
00:08:58There. I think I've got a...
00:09:00Right.
00:09:03They're testing S-505. Is that what you get?
00:09:07Right, Your Excellency.
00:09:19Right.
00:09:24He, wen?
00:09:27Five!
00:09:31One more age One less.
00:09:34chuckles
00:09:36One more age
00:09:38One more age
00:09:43One more age
00:09:45One more age
00:09:47Well, Professor, if S-505 will do everything that you say it will, it will control the
00:09:55sea. Radio-controlled battleships and submarines would have won the World War in the first
00:10:01year. Its future possibilities are inconceivable if it succeeds.
00:10:12Will you give me the combination now, Mr. Watson?
00:10:39When S-505 is returned to that room before you sail tomorrow, it won't be necessary for
00:10:46a human being to set his foot in that room again. Not even you, Captain.
00:10:52How is he? He's better. Dr. Howard has made arrangements for him to go to the sanitarium.
00:11:07It's an honor to be of the slightest assistance to you, Professor. Thank you, sir.
00:11:22See you tomorrow, Downey. Yes, sir.
00:11:40Sims, what do you want up here?
00:11:46Captain Norling, sir. Is he any better?
00:11:50No, Sims. He's been relieved.
00:11:55You can go back to your cabin job. I'm master of the ship now.
00:11:59Yes, sir. Too bad, sir.
00:12:06What are you trying to do?
00:12:08Trying to make a bowl and a bite, sir.
00:12:11Here.
00:12:12Here.
00:12:21Make yourself an excellent guy.
00:12:42A bow and a bite.
00:12:53No one but a sailor would think of this way to strangle a man.
00:12:56Has he no idea who attacked him?
00:12:58No, he was sleeping in the next room when he heard someone in here.
00:13:01He put on his robe, but before he had the time to turn on the lights,
00:13:04the rope was around his neck.
00:13:06That's all he remembered.
00:13:12There's nothing I can do for Professor Grimson.
00:13:16His neck is broken.
00:13:17He may live for hours or die while Major Pope is questioning him.
00:13:23This, uh, Major Pope, just who is he?
00:13:27Oh, he's a private investigator that Professor Grimson has known for some time.
00:13:31You see, the professor didn't want to call in the police.
00:13:35Did you anticipate this attack?
00:13:38For a long time, I felt that I had been followed.
00:13:42You're convinced that your assailant was after the tube that you call S-505.
00:13:48Did he get it?
00:13:49It wasn't here.
00:13:51I gave it to Watson for safekeeping.
00:13:54You should have taken equal precautions for your own safety, Professor.
00:13:59My life amounts to little.
00:14:02It's my work that must live.
00:14:06I understand, Professor.
00:14:12It's my work that must have been done for a long time, Professor Grimson.
00:14:18How long ago?
00:14:21Well, let me know the moment you hear anything.
00:14:23Captain Holling escaped from the sanitarium last night.
00:14:36That accounts for the attack.
00:14:40A most convenient conclusion, Commander.
00:14:42But I'm inclined to agree with Professor Grimson
00:14:46that whoever attacked him was after the tube S-505.
00:14:50But it hasn't been proven success.
00:14:52That's why I feel certain
00:14:53that the man who went this far will go farther
00:14:56once the success of S-505 is assured.
00:15:00There's no doubt in my mind
00:15:01that he'll be aboard the Guthrie when it sails.
00:15:03But at Professor Grimson's request,
00:15:05I shall also be aboard,
00:15:06if you think I can find accommodations.
00:15:08I'll take care of it, Major.
00:15:13What of Captain Holling?
00:15:15They found no trace of him, Excellency.
00:15:18Have you instructed your agent on board the Guthrie?
00:15:22Yes, Excellency.
00:15:23He will not fail.
00:15:26To make doubly sure,
00:15:28I myself have placed another man on the Guthrie.
00:15:39Don't shut me!
00:15:43I want to think I've never been on board ship before
00:15:45in all my life.
00:15:45Not decrepit yet.
00:15:46Oh, I lost my magazine.
00:16:11Here, Granny, you hold them.
00:16:12I'll be right back.
00:16:13I can get along without you.
00:16:15Got along all right without you
00:16:17before you were born.
00:16:20There's something I want to ask you, please.
00:16:23Yes, but this is most important.
00:16:25That's all right.
00:16:26It's a mistake, boys.
00:16:26Never mind.
00:16:28What I want to ask you is to say,
00:16:30I want to sit at the Captain's table
00:16:33on the Captain's right.
00:16:35Now, we'll try and take care of that for you.
00:16:39I'll have to look over my list.
00:16:40Thank you so much.
00:16:45Who is that very distinguished-looking gentleman there?
00:16:49Well, that is our head waiter.
00:16:52Oh, well, we'll skip that.
00:17:01Here it is, Granny.
00:17:02I found it.
00:17:03Oh, my fine kind of a rescuer
00:17:06this is going to be for me.
00:17:07The only rest I'll ever get from you
00:17:09is when I'm in my grave.
00:17:10Please, Granny, you're exciting yourself again.
00:17:12I'm not excited.
00:17:13You know what the doctor said.
00:17:15Never say doctor to me again.
00:17:17What am I here for?
00:17:18To get away from him.
00:17:21What are you waiting for?
00:17:22Waiting for you, ma'am.
00:17:24Well, why didn't you say so before?
00:17:25I've been standing here long enough.
00:17:26Goodness gracious me.
00:17:27At least somebody might say me
00:17:28that won't say to you.
00:17:29Did the Chips doctor get my message?
00:17:32Yes, he did, Mr. Morton.
00:17:33And Mrs. Flimpton will have
00:17:34every attention, I'm sure.
00:17:36Thank you very much.
00:17:46At the ashore whistle, Mr. Watson.
00:17:48From the appearance of that door,
00:18:14I don't think you need worry
00:18:15about anyone disturbing that room.
00:18:17Nevertheless, we're relying on
00:18:18all of you.
00:18:21If there's any change
00:18:22in Professor Grimson's condition,
00:18:24you'll hear from me.
00:18:25Otherwise,
00:18:26you'll be ready for contact
00:18:28at nine o'clock.
00:18:29Sorry you're not coming with us, sir.
00:18:31A voyage like this
00:18:32is something to live for.
00:18:33I only hope Professor Grimson
00:18:35lives for it.
00:18:37Good luck.
00:18:58Oh, I think a problem.
00:19:00How do you do?
00:19:01Is that your thing, sir?
00:19:05Yes.
00:19:05Four hundred and seventy.
00:19:06Yes.
00:19:06Then we are neighbors.
00:19:09And of course,
00:19:10we couldn't really be neighbors
00:19:12unless we could bother something.
00:19:16Might I ask you for the loan of a corkscrew?
00:19:20Corkscrews?
00:19:21Accidentally, I have one with me.
00:19:22Oh, thank you so much.
00:19:28And if it's good stuff,
00:19:31we'll have the pleasure later.
00:19:34That is, of course,
00:19:35if you'll join me.
00:19:36I shall be honored, Mrs. Burr.
00:19:37Ah, Plimpton.
00:19:38The Rochester Plimptons.
00:19:41So I suppose
00:19:41you've never been to Rochester.
00:19:44Rochester?
00:19:44But I regret
00:19:45I missed the charm of it
00:19:47until now.
00:19:48Oh, that's enough.
00:19:49I'm too old for flattery,
00:19:51even though I must say
00:19:52you do it remarkably well,
00:19:54Mr. Um...
00:19:55On Kessley?
00:19:56Oh, of course
00:19:57I might have known
00:19:59you came from the continent.
00:20:01Continental men are my weakness.
00:20:04You're traveling alone, Mrs. Splinter?
00:20:06Oh, yes.
00:20:07That is, unless you count Edgar.
00:20:09Edgar.
00:20:09It's the same thing as being alone.
00:20:12Grandson.
00:20:13Blue-blooded on his father's side.
00:20:16Blue-blood, but cut.
00:20:19The Mortons were all that way.
00:20:21Well, thank you, Jane, so much.
00:20:25Welcome.
00:20:27I'll be seeing you.
00:20:29I hope so.
00:20:30Yes.
00:20:42Stop!
00:20:43Put that back.
00:20:44I put him in the wrong stitle, ma'am.
00:20:46But I'm sorry you ate the countess.
00:20:48You're sorry?
00:20:49Hmm.
00:20:51Meaning you could put him.
00:21:04Rogers, report to my cabin
00:21:06and drop the pilot.
00:21:07Yes, sir.
00:21:07How's that?
00:21:08I can't see you guys!
00:21:10I can't see you guys!
00:21:15I can't see you guys!
00:21:17I can't see you guys!
00:21:49It's a great adventure, Captain.
00:22:06It's wonderful to be alive, isn't it, and see the world progress in front of you.
00:22:10I hope Professor Grimson lives.
00:22:13It's too bad, Donner, but there's never any progress without tragedy.
00:22:17Someone is going to have to pay for it.
00:22:19Someone who knew the secret of S-505.
00:22:25Come in.
00:22:30We've dropped the pilot, sir.
00:22:31Take the bridge, Mr. Rogers, till we're a beam to keep you on light.
00:22:34Yes, sir.
00:22:35Dr. Harden, Miss Kane, I'll speak to you, sir.
00:22:37Where are they?
00:22:40Doctor?
00:22:41What is it, Doctor?
00:22:47That's all right.
00:22:48Major Pope here is Mr. Watson's representative this trip.
00:22:51Oh, I see.
00:22:53I have just completed an analysis of Captain Holling's blood.
00:22:58And what have you found, Doctor?
00:22:59There are traces of an uncommon drug that's hardly known outside the West Indies.
00:23:04It has the peculiar properties of temporarily paralyzing the nerve centers of the brain.
00:23:08What, in your opinion, is the means of getting this poison into his system?
00:23:15His food, drink, perhaps even the tobacco that he smoked might have been drugged.
00:23:20Why, Captain Holling didn't have an enemy in the world.
00:23:23The world is very large, Captain Downey.
00:23:26But this liner, fortunately, is a little world all its own.
00:23:29Do you mean that anyone on board this ship...
00:23:31Who else would have been close enough to him to systematically administer a poison without exciting his suspicions?
00:23:36But no one was any closer to him than we people in this room.
00:23:39Yes.
00:23:41Quite so.
00:23:42Are you implying that one of us...
00:23:44It was your own suggestion, Mr. Rogers.
00:23:48I presume that Miss...
00:23:49Miss Kane.
00:23:50Miss Kane here had charge of Captain Holling during his illness.
00:23:53Yes, she did.
00:23:55Did he at any time drop a hint as to any bad feeling existing between himself and anyone on board?
00:24:01Not that I knew of.
00:24:02You're quite sure, Miss Kane?
00:24:05Of course.
00:24:07Don't you suppose I'd tell you?
00:24:08Unless you were shielding someone.
00:24:11Don't you think that's going just a little too far, Major Pope?
00:24:14Do you object to my questioning, Miss Kane?
00:24:16She told you she doesn't know anything about it.
00:24:18Isn't that enough?
00:24:19Well, if she's nothing to conceal, why should you be so concerned?
00:24:22Do you mean by that she's shielding me?
00:24:26That's absurd.
00:24:27Why don't you ask who had anything to gain by...
00:24:30by removing Captain Holling?
00:24:34Well, I realize, of course, the Captain Downey owes his promotion to what happened.
00:24:39Are you trying to say...
00:24:40Of course he isn't.
00:24:42Say what you mean.
00:24:44Major Pope said it.
00:24:45Take it up with him.
00:24:46Pardon me.
00:24:53Yes?
00:24:54Yes, she's here.
00:24:56I'll tell her.
00:24:58Passengers, the name of Morton asking for you.
00:25:00Oh, yes, yes, thank you.
00:25:01I told them I'd be here.
00:25:03It's the Plimpton case, Doctor.
00:25:04Oh, yes.
00:25:05If you have no more questions to ask me,
00:25:08may I go to my patient?
00:25:10Certainly.
00:25:10Certainly.
00:25:10Good, you say, Doctor?
00:25:29Yes.
00:25:30Take the bridge, Mr. Rogers.
00:25:31I'll talk to you later.
00:25:34Yes, sir.
00:25:34Is there enough trouble between you and Downey without making it worse?
00:25:48What's the matter?
00:25:48Afraid I'll hurt his feelings?
00:25:50Cliff, you're absolutely impossible.
00:26:01I see, Doctor.
00:26:03I'll be in the hospital if you want me.
00:26:04I'll be in the hospital if you want me.
00:26:05I'll be in the hospital if you want me.
00:26:06I'll be in the hospital if you want me.
00:26:07I'll be in the hospital if you want me.
00:26:29What's the trouble between you and Rogers?
00:26:31The girl?
00:26:32Leave her out of it.
00:26:33Oh, I see.
00:26:36You know, I thought for a moment he knew something that might incriminate you.
00:26:38You were quick enough to take the words out of his mouth.
00:26:49You know, Captain, Miss Kane is a very, very charming young lady.
00:26:53Hello?
00:26:54Hello?
00:26:55Hello?
00:26:56Hello?
00:26:57Oh, is the bath so busy it can't answer the telephone?
00:27:00Now what is it?
00:27:01It's me, Granny.
00:27:02It would be.
00:27:03Not now.
00:27:04Later.
00:27:05Come in.
00:27:06Come in.
00:27:07This is Miss Kane, Granny.
00:27:08How do you do?
00:27:09I was doing all right till you came in.
00:27:11Granny?
00:27:12I asked Miss Kane to see you.
00:27:13It's her nerves.
00:27:14That's why the doctor recommended this trip.
00:27:15Oh, I'm sure it's going to do you well.
00:27:16Ah, well, that's good.
00:27:17Yes, it'll do me more good if I never heard that again.
00:27:18There's nothing the matter with me but Edgar.
00:27:19And he's nothing much.
00:27:20Granny.
00:27:21Don't keep reminding me of that.
00:27:22It isn't my fault that your mother had to get married.
00:27:24Now be off.
00:27:25Go on.
00:27:26I'm not you, Edgar.
00:27:27I'm not you.
00:27:28It's not you, Edgar.
00:27:29You're not you.
00:27:30No, you're not.
00:27:31I'm sorry.
00:27:32Oh, I'm sorry.
00:27:33See you.
00:27:34Did I ask Miss Kane, Granny?
00:27:35I was doing all right till you came in.
00:27:36Granny, I asked Miss Kane to see you.
00:27:38It's her nerves.
00:27:39That's why the doctor recommended this trip.
00:27:40Oh, I'm sure it's going to do you well.
00:27:41Oh, well, that's good.
00:27:42Yes.
00:27:43It'll do me more good if I never heard that again.
00:27:45There's nothing the matter with me but Edgar.
00:27:48And he's nothing much.
00:27:49I'm not you, Edgar.
00:27:52If you want me for anything.
00:27:53What would any woman want you for?
00:27:55Well, if you're going to insult...
00:27:56No use.
00:27:58I've given up trying.
00:28:01You think old age had burdens enough without carrying that.
00:28:05I'm sure he means well, Mrs. Simpkins.
00:28:07What do you know about it?
00:28:09Trying to wish a nurse on me.
00:28:12Never felt better in my life.
00:28:14Well, then I'm sure you won't need Dr. Howard.
00:28:16I don't even want to look at him.
00:28:18Oh, but he's not at all bad to look at.
00:28:21Rather handsome, in fact.
00:28:23But I'll tell him he needn't drop in.
00:28:25You needn't tell him anything of the kind.
00:28:28If he chances to drop in, well, it'll be perfectly all right.
00:28:32Are you sure there's nothing more I can do for you?
00:28:35No.
00:28:37Unless you can get me something to go with that.
00:28:42I'm afraid not, Mrs. Simpkins.
00:28:46Goodbye.
00:28:47Goodbye.
00:28:48Oh, Miss Kane.
00:28:57Would you feel safer to talk, now that we're alone?
00:29:02There isn't anything more I can tell you.
00:29:04You mean at this time?
00:29:06If you want to put it that way, Major Pope.
00:29:09Yes.
00:29:09Thank you so much for that.
00:29:17Oh, dear me, you're Major Pope.
00:29:20You're not the gentleman I borrowed this from, are you?
00:29:23If you were, I could return it to you at once.
00:29:25But now, of course, I can.
00:29:26It is so silly of me to mistake you for it, someone else,
00:29:30when yours is a face one couldn't possibly forget.
00:29:34I must apologize, don't you?
00:29:36Oh, there you are.
00:29:39This is the gentleman who loaned me the corkscrew.
00:29:42Mr. von Kessling, do you know Major Pope?
00:29:45How do you do, Major?
00:29:47Pleasure, Mr. von Kessling.
00:29:49Thank you so much.
00:29:51I had nothing to go with it after all.
00:29:56Oh, isn't it nice we don't have to wait for the 12-mile limit anymore?
00:30:01Oh, I'm from the bar.
00:30:02You want to try the Bacardi.
00:30:04Oh.
00:30:06Oh.
00:30:06Perhaps, perhaps, you join me there.
00:30:09Oh.
00:30:10Later.
00:30:12Better late than never.
00:30:14Oh.
00:30:31Oh.
00:30:46Oh.
00:30:50Oh.
00:30:52Oh.
00:30:55Oh.
00:30:59Oh.
00:31:00Oh.
00:32:01I hope you don't mind my being here.
00:32:08Not as long as you waited for me.
00:32:10I wanted to see you alone.
00:32:12About that man, Pope, his insinuation about you was vile.
00:32:17Do I mean that much to you?
00:32:20Let's not talk about things like that now, when there's going to be more important things
00:32:24to think about.
00:32:24Nothing has ever been as important as you.
00:32:28Let's make this our last trip.
00:32:31You mean you'll leave the sea?
00:32:32What will we live on?
00:32:33Oh, I'll have plenty.
00:32:35You will?
00:32:37A rich uncle?
00:32:40Something like that.
00:32:41Don't go.
00:33:03Oh, I must.
00:33:04Come in.
00:33:16Well?
00:33:17I've just checked the engine room in Wheelhouse.
00:33:19Everything's set to go the minute we receive word.
00:33:22And when we get it, I'll tell you, sir.
00:33:23You won't need to come snooping around.
00:33:25I didn't know I'd be intruding.
00:33:29Oh, I was just going.
00:33:29No, wait.
00:33:30You've stuck your nose into the wrong place once too often, Rogers.
00:33:35You've made your last trip with me.
00:33:37That's great.
00:33:38When it's over, I'm going to give you something I've been saving up for a long time.
00:33:41Well, if that's all you're waiting for, now is as good a time as any.
00:33:44Be clear.
00:33:46Nanny.
00:33:48I just saw him, sir.
00:33:49He was looking at me.
00:33:51The plainest day, sir.
00:33:52Death and nothing.
00:33:54Are you crazy?
00:33:55Strike me dead if I didn't see him, sir.
00:33:57The door to 406 opens.
00:33:59And he looks at me, sir.
00:34:00He don't say nothing.
00:34:02And I don't answer him.
00:34:03Come on.
00:34:04Me, sir?
00:34:05Go on with him.
00:34:25Hello.
00:34:26Did Major Pope leave a word where to find him?
00:34:29Well, get him.
00:34:30Ask him to get up here as fast as he can.
00:34:39Hey, Joe.
00:34:40Open this door.
00:34:42Sims claims he saw Captain Holling in here.
00:34:44Captain Holling?
00:34:53Take a look in there.
00:34:54Yes, sir.
00:34:54There's nothing like a scotch and soda on a knife like this.
00:35:12Who do you suppose that attractive woman can be?
00:35:20Well, that's the countess.
00:35:23Countess Farnassi.
00:35:26Looks like Grand Rapids to me.
00:35:29You mustn't judge your fellow travelers by appearances, Mrs. Plimpton.
00:35:34You never know who your neighbor really is, do you, Mr. von Kessling?
00:35:37It's one of the charms of Clavvy, isn't it, Major?
00:35:41It is quite the name.
00:35:42Paging Major Pope.
00:35:43Paging Major Pope.
00:35:44Oh, boy.
00:35:49Pardon me?
00:35:54I'm so sorry.
00:35:56Will you excuse me?
00:35:57Oh, must you?
00:35:58Yes, I'm afraid so.
00:35:59Well, I suppose it can't be helped.
00:36:01No, it can't.
00:36:01I'll join you later.
00:36:05Charming man, the Major, isn't he?
00:36:07I should like to know more about him.
00:36:10So would I.
00:36:14Will you excuse me?
00:36:16You, too?
00:36:17Oh, dear.
00:36:18Well, I might have guessed it with all these young girls about.
00:36:22Go ahead and enjoy them.
00:36:23Silly little things.
00:36:26Isn't that, Mrs. Plimpton?
00:36:28I have a slight paddock.
00:36:29I have some aspirin in my safe room.
00:36:31Oh, why didn't you mention it before?
00:36:33I have just the thing you need.
00:36:35No, I wouldn't trouble you for anything.
00:36:37No, no, no, no, no, no, no trouble at all.
00:36:40You're coming with me.
00:36:41But, but.
00:36:42Now, come along.
00:36:43This way.
00:36:48No one in there, sir.
00:36:50But I tell you, I saw him, sir.
00:36:51What have you been drinking, Sam?
00:36:53Not a drop, sir.
00:36:55So help me.
00:36:56But if it weren't him, it was his ghost it was.
00:36:59Do you believe in ghosts?
00:37:00Well, when you see him with your own eyes, what are you going to believe, sir?
00:37:09Hello?
00:37:10Get me the captain.
00:37:11Or he says, put him up.
00:37:14Oh, what's happened?
00:37:16Where's Granny?
00:37:17Oh, she's not here.
00:37:19Since I saw a, a, a.
00:37:20A doorway.
00:37:22Hello, captain?
00:37:23There's no one here.
00:37:25Well, Simms was mistaken.
00:37:26But how could he be?
00:37:28Simms knows Holling when he sees him.
00:37:31Make a thorough search.
00:37:32Yes, sir.
00:37:38Where was this?
00:37:39Right below in 406.
00:37:40If Captain Holling is on this boat.
00:37:46Pull yourself together, captain.
00:37:47I asked, you know something about medicine.
00:37:54Now, this is something that was recommended to me by one of the finest specialists in New York's addiction.
00:38:00Really?
00:38:00Oh, a pity we weren't invited to the convention.
00:38:06What is this?
00:38:07Oh, there's nothing to be alarmed about, Mrs. Clemson.
00:38:10An army in my room?
00:38:11Maybe that wouldn't alarm you.
00:38:13What are you men doing in there?
00:38:15Looking for a man, Granny.
00:38:16A man?
00:38:17Go away.
00:38:17Oh, but there's no one there.
00:38:19Simms only thought he thought.
00:38:20Thought?
00:38:21Huh.
00:38:22Getting me all excited again over nothing at all.
00:38:25Well, you two men keep a sharp lookout.
00:38:28Yes, sir.
00:38:30Seem to a place to be looking for a stowaway, officer, huh?
00:38:34The steward was mistaken.
00:38:36Thank you, sir.
00:39:06Did that gun give you a feeling of assurance, captain?
00:39:08I don't see what you have to be afraid of.
00:39:10Holling's out of his mind, isn't he?
00:39:12A maniac.
00:39:13He might do anything.
00:39:14To the man who made him that way?
00:39:16To anyone.
00:39:17No one's safe with him around.
00:39:19How do you know he's on board at all?
00:39:22Who else has seen him?
00:39:23How do you know that Simms saw him?
00:39:25Why would he lie about it?
00:39:27Well, to be time enough to inquire into that or to worry about hollying after nine o'clock.
00:39:31Do you think I'd let that experiment go ahead with that maniac loose on this ship?
00:39:36I was in that next room when he warned Watson not to go ahead with it.
00:39:39I saw him start to attack Brinson.
00:39:41Do you think he'd stop now?
00:39:43Well, anything might happen.
00:39:46You can't get into that control room to stop it.
00:39:49At nine o'clock, this line-up goes under radio control
00:39:51until S-505 has proven a success or failure,
00:39:54whether you like it or not.
00:39:55Let's go.
00:39:57Okay.
00:39:57Let's go.
00:39:58Let's go.
00:41:13The following is what?
00:41:16Ask him to repeat the message.
00:41:43It was around his neck when I found him just now.
00:41:56Highland Street.
00:42:09Highland Street.
00:42:13Hello?
00:42:26Tell Dr. Howard to come here at last.
00:42:29No response.
00:42:32Here it comes.
00:42:35That's funny.
00:42:48You never did like him, did you, Rogers?
00:43:05Come in.
00:43:10I've been forward, sir, and found nothing.
00:43:15Captain Downing!
00:43:18What do you know about this?
00:43:21Nothing, sir.
00:43:23Nothing unless Captain Downing.
00:43:28That's exactly what I thought you'd say.
00:43:31But I don't understand, sir.
00:43:33I...
00:43:34I...
00:43:35You said you'd seen Holling on Broad, so you'd have an alibi.
00:43:40Why did you kill Downing?
00:43:41I didn't.
00:43:42What would I want to kill him for?
00:43:44You held a grudge against him for reducing you to a cavern steward.
00:43:47What's that got to do with killing the man?
00:43:49I never had no fight with him, I didn't.
00:43:51Like you had.
00:43:52Oh, I heard you down here.
00:43:54Having an help with him and Miss Kane, right here in this room.
00:43:56And he was going to strike everyone.
00:43:58Give me one.
00:44:12Come in, Mr. von Kessling.
00:44:14You can hear much better in here.
00:44:24An unpleasant night to be on deck.
00:44:27What are you doing out there?
00:44:29I came here to speak to Captain Downing.
00:44:36Your explanation at a mere stowaway caused all the disturbance in Mrs. Plimpton's stateroom
00:44:42didn't quite satisfy my, uh, curiosity.
00:44:47Unfortunate that your curiosity should have waited so long.
00:44:51Had it brought you here a few minutes before Mr. Rogers discovered the body,
00:44:54it might have been helpful to us in indicating who murdered Captain Downing.
00:44:58Well, Doctor?
00:44:59His neck was broken.
00:45:00I don't know.
00:45:01I don't know.
00:45:02I don't know.
00:45:03I don't know.
00:45:04I don't know.
00:45:05I don't knowany.
00:45:07I don't knowany.
00:45:08I don't know.
00:45:09I don't knowany.
00:45:11You're dumb.
00:45:13I don't knowany...
00:45:14I don't knowany.
00:45:15Littlerint, noignant bird!
00:45:16Will do you want to do more to try your storyline?
00:45:18Well, Doctor?
00:45:19Well, doctor?
00:45:26His neck was broken.
00:45:28Yes, with that.
00:45:32Oh, horrible.
00:45:35Roger's found him.
00:45:37Give me a hand, Sam.
00:45:38No, I don't.
00:45:48But who?
00:45:50No, no, Miss Kane.
00:45:51Mr. Von Kessling doesn't know any more about it than you do.
00:45:53It's merely his curiosity that gives us the honor of his presence.
00:45:56Well, then who?
00:45:58You don't think it was Captain Hollings?
00:46:00Have you any reason to think it might have been?
00:46:06I don't know.
00:46:08This is what I was looking for when you found me along with Mr. Downey.
00:46:33Voodoo Medicines of the West Indies.
00:46:35Why, that book belongs in my library.
00:46:38The last time I saw it, Mr. Downey was reading it.
00:46:41It disappeared from the library after that.
00:46:42I thought you didn't tell us all you knew.
00:46:45If you thought that Downey had poison-hauling, why didn't you tell us?
00:46:48I couldn't until I was sure the book was there.
00:46:52Would you be so quick to tell us now that Captain Downey was still alive and said that the book had been planted?
00:46:56Are you implying that I put that book there?
00:46:59You've said enough, Pope.
00:47:00I don't know.
00:47:00I don't know.
00:47:01I don't know.
00:47:01I don't know.
00:47:02Granting that Downey did poison-hauling.
00:47:04Even you must perceive that he didn't obligingly kill himself to make room for Captain Rogers.
00:47:09You're forgetting that he died the same way Professor Grimson was struck down.
00:47:13By the same hand.
00:47:15Not necessarily by the same hand.
00:47:17But by someone who knew how Professor Grimson was struck down.
00:47:22And if Captain Holling is on board...
00:47:24And if he's not, there still remains someone on board so vitally interested in the outcome of this experiment...
00:47:29...that he doesn't stop at murder.
00:47:50Well, Captain?
00:47:51Three minutes.
00:47:54Just a moment, Mr. von Kesslund.
00:47:55Nobody leaves this room.
00:47:57I beg your pardon?
00:47:58I'm making no exceptions.
00:47:59You're as much under suspicion as anyone here.
00:48:01But still, I have certain rights.
00:48:04Look here, von Kesslund.
00:48:05Something is about to happen here that's bigger than your rights or mine.
00:48:08You're welcome to remain as a guest.
00:48:10Or be placed under arrest and put an iron.
00:48:13Will you tell them we're waiting for contact?
00:48:24Yes, sir?
00:48:26Mr. Haynes, at 9 sharp, your light will flash from the control room.
00:48:30Stand clear after that.
00:48:32Under no circumstances, touch the wheel without orders.
00:48:34Yes, sir.
00:48:35Yes, Mr. Haynes.
00:48:50For 70 years, he's off now.
00:48:56Waiting.
00:48:58Contact.
00:49:00Hope.
00:49:01All right.
00:49:02We'll hold present course at 15 knots.
00:49:13We'll hold present course at 15 knots.
00:49:23How much longer?
00:49:31Five seconds.
00:49:36Contact.
00:49:36Contact.
00:49:36Contact.
00:49:37Contact.
00:49:53What are you doing now?
00:50:2015 knots.
00:50:2115 knots.
00:50:2115 knots.
00:50:2115 knots.
00:50:23Without the help of a man on board.
00:50:30Tell them it works.
00:50:35Here it comes.
00:50:40Successful.
00:50:4215 knots.
00:50:45Correct.
00:50:45I knew it couldn't fail.
00:50:49Changing course.

00:50:58Changing course.

00:51:08party.
00:51:26Okay.
00:51:26I feel like it was a good one.
00:51:27Excuse me.
00:51:29See.
00:51:30itor .
00:51:31Let's see.
00:51:33What's it?
00:51:33Norfolk?
00:51:34Increasing speed to 20 knots.
00:51:5620 knots.
00:51:5820 knots?
00:52:00Uncanny.
00:52:04I'm never so bored in all me life.
00:52:12If that woman's a singer, I'm a canary.
00:52:15Been better off if I'd gone to bed.
00:52:34Wartime test.
00:52:38Full speed.
00:52:42Ahead.
00:52:45With lights out.
00:52:50Now what's the matter?
00:53:01Ouch!
00:53:02Oh!
00:53:03So this is the life of a sailor.
00:53:07Take it easy, folks.
00:53:09They'll be on in a minute.
00:53:10They'll be on in a minute.
00:53:11I can mix them in the dark.
00:53:16Going full speed ahead.
00:53:23With lights out.
00:53:26Well done, Professor Grinsome.
00:53:44Unbelievable.
00:53:46Look, Peter.
00:53:47Who was it there?
00:53:52Wait!
00:53:53This way!
00:53:54Somebody now.
00:53:55Watch it, Lila.
00:53:56You've got lost.
00:53:57This one?
00:53:59Yeah, she's in the dark.
00:54:00Oh, see you.
00:54:01I'm so scared.
00:54:02Look at them.
00:54:03Look at them!
00:54:04Come on!
00:54:05What's the point?
00:54:06Look at them!
00:54:07Look at them!
00:54:08Who is there?
00:54:09Wait!
00:54:10This way!
00:54:11Quill!
00:54:12And everybody now!
00:54:13Watch it, Lila!
00:54:15Clip, hurry.
00:54:16Break a match, please.
00:54:17Yes, ma'am.
00:54:18Are you always right?
00:54:20Clip, look.
00:54:21This is the mayor.
00:54:22It's Captain Howling.
00:54:24Oh, great scum.
00:54:45He's done it.
00:55:00He's taken S-505 and replaced it with our scrambled tube.
00:55:05Who's there?
00:55:06What is it?
00:55:07The doctor.
00:55:08Doctor, doctor, please help me.
00:55:09What's the matter?
00:55:10What's Captain Howling?
00:55:11Drive me.
00:55:12What's happened to him?
00:55:13Come on, Simms.
00:55:14I'll leave the room here.
00:55:25It's froze.
00:55:30Stop your engines.
00:55:32Oh, can't you do something?
00:55:34You're helpless.
00:55:35There's nothing we can do, sir.
00:55:44Oh, it's dead.
00:55:45We conquer through the interference.
00:55:52Why doesn't somebody give me some light?
00:55:54I...
00:55:55Help!
00:55:56Help!
00:55:57I've got him!
00:55:58I've got him!
00:55:59Help!
00:56:00Help!
00:56:01Help!
00:56:02Help!
00:56:03I've got him!
00:56:04I've got him!
00:56:05He's got me, Granny.
00:56:06What happened to you?
00:56:07That watchman, he did it.
00:56:08Untie me, Granny.
00:56:09Are you sure you can't get loose?
00:56:10No, Granny.
00:56:11Untie me.
00:56:12Untie you?
00:56:13Untie you?
00:56:14Untie you?
00:56:15This is the first vacation I've had in years.
00:56:20What's that?
00:56:21What's that?
00:56:22I've got him in the control room.
00:56:24What's that?
00:56:25Retired.
00:56:26That watchman!
00:56:27He did it.
00:56:28Untie me, Granny.
00:56:29The watchman!
00:56:30Are you sure you can't get loose?
00:56:31No, Granny.
00:56:32Untie me.
00:56:33Untie you?
00:56:34This is the first vacation I've had in years.
00:56:37Hoo-hoo!
00:56:39What's that?
00:56:40Keep in the control room.
00:56:41Get a crowbar! Get something! We've got to get this crowbar!
00:56:45A crowbar! Yes, sir!
00:56:53Is he conscious, Doctor?
00:56:55No, no. I've got to talk to him.
00:56:57No, no, no.
00:56:59I've got to talk to him.
00:57:01No, no, no.
00:57:03I've got to talk to him.
00:57:05No, no, no.
00:57:07I've got to talk to him.
00:57:09No, no. I've got to talk to him.
00:57:11No, no, no.
00:57:13Captain Holland, can you hear me?
00:57:15Captain Holland, tell me the combination of the safe.
00:57:19Hamlet.
00:57:21Hamlet case.
00:57:23Hamlet case down.
00:57:25Hamlet.
00:57:35We cannot break our contact.
00:57:37We are in control.
00:57:39Where's the plane?
00:57:40Ten miles of Cape Loma.
00:57:41He'll be over to Gautrich in a few minutes.
00:57:43Perfect.
00:57:59Is there anybody here?
00:58:01No!
00:58:02Hey!
00:58:07Say something!
00:58:08Speak!
00:58:11Major!
00:58:22Oh, if you knew what I've suffered!
00:58:24Are we on our own power?
00:58:25Yes, sir.
00:58:26Half speed ahead.
00:58:27Get back on your course.
00:58:28I'll trouble you for my cane, Mrs. Templin.
00:58:30Your cane?
00:58:32Then you were the man that was in my room.
00:58:34Why, of course I was in your room.
00:58:36I chased the man out of your room.
00:58:38And through that door.
00:58:39There's the man you want, Captain Rogers.
00:58:41He's the man who killed Downey.
00:58:42Be careful, he's got a gun on him.
00:58:43As you are, folks.
00:58:44That plane is to pick you up.
00:58:45You're out of luck.
00:58:46All right, Joe.
00:58:47Joe, who is this, uh, this one, Castle?
00:58:48Inspector, Bureau of Navigation.
00:58:49If you were to destroy that S-505, I would have saved it.
00:58:50That, too, wasn't the one.
00:58:51You're the one who killed him.
00:58:52No, sir.
00:58:53No, I'm not the one.
00:58:54No, sir.
00:58:55No, sir.
00:58:56No, sir.
00:58:57No, sir.
00:58:58No, sir.
00:58:59No, sir.
00:59:00No, sir.
00:59:01No, sir.
00:59:02No, sir.
00:59:03No, sir.
00:59:04No, sir.
00:59:05No, sir.
00:59:06No, sir.
00:59:07Oh, sir.
00:59:08Well, sir, sir.
00:59:09No, sir.
00:59:10Yes, sir.
00:59:11No, sir.
00:59:12No, sir.
00:59:13No, sir.
00:59:14No, sir.
00:59:15No, sir.
00:59:16That too wasn't the S-505.
00:59:18Where is that you?
00:59:20Where is that you?
00:59:22You're an inspector.
00:59:24You tell me.
00:59:39Steady.
00:59:42Where is that you?
00:59:44Come on, talk.
00:59:46Is this what you mean?
00:59:48I took it out of the cane.
00:59:56Well, after all, you can't hang a man for one of the two.
01:00:00No.
01:00:02But you can be hung for murder.
01:00:05Your bullet didn't make as good a job of me.
01:00:08And your rope made of downy.
01:00:11See, I didn't know until tonight
01:00:14you were both agents of some international power.
01:00:16You thought that you had prepared yourself for every emergency.
01:00:19Didn't you, folks?
01:00:21Even downy didn't know that secret panel that you cut in the wall of the stateroom below.
01:00:26Now, no one knew but me.
01:00:30And when I discovered it several weeks ago, I cut that secret passage in the wall over there.
01:00:36And I was standing behind there, listening to you, when downy lost his nerve.
01:00:41He wouldn't go through with it.
01:00:43That's why you came back and murdered him?
01:00:45All right.
01:00:47Take him alone.
01:00:48Put him in iron.
01:00:49Oh, Mrs. Plimpton, I hope the trip does you a world of good.
01:00:56Major, don't forget your limbs.
01:01:06Thank you for what you've done.
01:01:08Mr. Watson requested me to come on board just before you left.
01:01:11He'll be mighty glad to hear that you're alive and well.
01:01:15Yes, but he won't be if he doesn't sit down and take things easy.
01:01:19Yes.
01:01:20I'm feeling very good, Doctor.
01:01:21Yes.
01:01:26So you're a detective.
01:01:27Yes.
01:01:28How wonderful.
01:01:29You know, detectives have always been a weakness of mine.
01:01:33Oh, I forgot.
01:01:34I didn't get an opportunity to thank your watchman for tying up Edgar.
01:01:38I'm so sorry, but you know, he had to do it.
01:01:41The boy was in a way.
01:01:42You're telling me.
01:01:45Oh, Sim.
01:01:46Yes, sir?
01:01:47I think a little jolt of brandy would do the captain good.
01:01:50Right, sir.
01:01:51A jolt?
01:01:53I could do with a couple of quarts myself.
01:02:03Oh.
01:02:04No.
01:02:13No.
01:02:14No.
01:02:15Oh, there's his little man.
01:02:16No.
01:02:17That's it.
01:02:18Yeah.
01:02:19No.
01:02:20No.
01:02:21No.
01:02:22No.
01:02:23No.
01:02:24Okay.
01:02:25Yeah.
01:02:26No.
01:02:27No.
01:02:28No.
01:02:29No.
01:02:30No.
