01:59Oh boy...
02:00I wonder if this is Pismo Beach or Malibu...
02:04Hey, look...
02:09Hey, it's an old man, Al...
02:19Hey, it's an old man, Al...
02:39It's a survivor...
02:40That's not a survivor, it's a victim...
02:44Come on, Pete...
02:46Watch him, Pete, but keep moving...
02:56Watch him, Pete, but keep moving...
03:07Watch him, Pete, but keep moving...
03:10Hey, let me have your knife...
03:16David, let me have your knife...
03:26David, let me have your knife...
03:38Let me have your knife...
03:39At least he's still breathing...
03:53Pete...
03:55Somebody must have put him on the outgoing tide...
03:59Deliberately...
04:00Let's get him out of here...
04:04Here we go...
04:14Here we go...
04:15Hey, look...
04:27Hey, look...
04:28Over here...
04:46There we go...
04:47Hey, there, now...
04:48What's your name, huh?
04:49Hey, come on, you understand?
04:50In shock or death?
04:51It's hard to say...
04:52You might not understand this...
04:53I...
04:54Am dead...
04:55Leave me...
04:56He understands...
04:57I don't...
04:58Hey, listen to me, old man...
04:59Listen to me...
05:00Listen to me...
05:01What's your name?
05:02Where do you come from?
05:03I...
05:04Am dead...
05:05You heard him...
05:06Let's go...
05:07Okay...
05:08I...
05:09Am dead...
05:10Leave me...
05:13He understands...
05:15I don't...
05:16Hey, listen to me, old man...
05:17Listen to me...
05:18What's your name?
05:19Where do you come from?
05:20I...
05:21Am dead...
05:23You heard him...
05:24Let's go...
05:26Okay...
05:27Now we can't just leave him here...
05:29You listen to him...
05:30Now you're just talking yourself into trouble...
05:33Hey...
05:34There you go, pal...
05:35Come on...
05:36Come on.
05:38You want to tell me your name now?
05:40I am dead.
05:43The gods have willed it.
05:45Look, you know that and we know that.
05:47All we'd like to know is what was your name while you were still alive, huh?
05:51Gato.
05:53My name was Gato.
05:56Gato.
05:58Well, that's a start, hey, Pete, look.
06:01For identification, maybe?
06:03Maybe.
06:05I'll tell you one thing.
06:05It's only down there for life.
06:07That's a band of an enforced labor camp.
06:09He'll be killed if he's found wandering so far from the permitted area.
06:12What's a permitted area?
06:14Oh, it varies.
06:15It's some distance from the labor center.
06:17It's a method they have to stop humans from straying.
06:21I am dead.
06:24Believe me, the gods have willed it.
06:28Poor old guy.
06:29Somebody sure sold him a bill of goods.
06:31Question.
06:31If he wants to be dead, why can't he be dead?
06:38And I've known a lot of humans who would be better off.
06:40Is that your question?
06:47Well.
06:49Here's the answer.
06:50Galen, you're going to stay here and keep an eye on him.
06:53We're going to go out and scout the area and see if we can find out who old Gato here belongs to.
06:58Does that meet with your approval?
07:01Come on, Pete.
07:01Let's take a walk.
07:04Hey, don't mind him.
07:05You just got up on the wrong side of the cave, huh?
07:08See you later.
07:09Yeah.
07:11Thanks.
07:22Gato.
07:22Gato.
07:28Gato!

08:04Shark! Shark!
08:34Man, this is Paradise Cove. They've sure made some changes.
09:00Yeah.
09:04Pete, look. The bracelets.
09:09What do you think?
09:13I don't know, Pete. They've got a lot of artillery down there.
09:17You!
09:19What are you doing here? Who are you? Where do you come from?
09:24Well, actually, we're just passing through. We would have called ahead, but...
09:28Silence! This way!
09:31Silence!
09:41Oh, my God.
10:11Watch them
10:13You, you know Gatto
10:21Wait, does Gatto live here?
10:29Looks like old Gatto's got a lot of acquaintances and no close friends
10:31Yep
10:33There's three humans, sir
10:40I found them hiding near the fishing area
10:42Probably waiting to steal fish
10:44All right, don't just stand there
10:47More problems
10:50Send them in
10:53Hmm
10:57Harold, that's all I need
11:01Three wagon loads behind already this period
11:04And the fertilizer factory is wanting more
11:06More
11:07More
11:08You
11:11How many fish do you have in your gullet, eh?
11:14We didn't steal any fish
11:15Ha!
11:16We're no band of a fisherman
11:18How's we to get fish to eat if not by stealing them?
11:21Well, if you'll let me explain
11:22Silence!
11:22Silence!
11:23If they're not fishermen, they're of no use to me
11:25Take them out and kill them
11:27Come, wait a minute, wait a minute
11:28Hold it!
11:29You make a mistake
11:29You know, we're probably about the two best fishermen in this whole part of the world
11:34If you lie, you'll die
11:37Oh, no lie
11:38On the level
11:39Nobody fishes, but nobody fishes like we do
11:43Well, how is it that you're not wearing the bracelet of a fisherman, eh?
11:47We were farmers
11:47We were just released from a big farm inland
11:50Because, uh, all we've ever wanted to do is fish
11:52We've been practicing
11:54You
11:55You have a good wind
12:00To fish long underwater
12:02Yes, sir
12:03You have your release papers
12:06No, no, sir
12:07Unfortunately
12:08We lost them
12:09While we were fishing
12:10Hmm
12:11I could use two more good producers
12:15Have to discard the old ones
12:18Takes forever to grow the new ones
12:21Hmm
12:23We'll let the fire decide
12:26Uh, the fire?
12:29We'll test you tomorrow
12:31If you can prove your swimming ability under the sheet of flame
12:36I'll ban you myself
12:38Two new producers in the prime
12:42Ho, ho, ho
12:43Bando will be delighted
12:45Actually, uh, you know
12:47I don't think that we're really ready for, uh
12:49The swimming under fire
12:51Then it's out of my hands, of course
12:52You will be killed immediately
12:55Before the gods can be offended
12:57Guard them
12:59No food before the test
13:01If we have to kill them
13:03I don't want to waste any fish rations on them
13:06Quotars, quotars
13:11Out
13:13Out
13:14Yeah
13:29Maybe
13:31You are not too dead
13:33To have one of these
13:34Come on
13:36I have failed the gods
13:40I am dead
13:41You know, my friends have a saying
13:47I think you go to something like this
13:48You are a pain in the neck
13:50And if anything happens to them
13:53I will personally feed you to the sharks
13:57Piece by piece
13:58It is the will of the gods
14:01Oh, shut up
14:03It is the will of Galen
14:07That you stay right here
14:08You know, they've been gone for a whole day
14:10I'm going to see if I can find them now
14:11Do you understand?
14:12No
14:14Hey!
14:35Hey!
14:35Hey!
14:36Hey!
14:36Hey!
14:37Hey!
14:37Hey!
14:38Hey!
14:39Hey!
14:40Hey!
14:41Hey!
14:42Hey!
14:43Hey!
14:43Hey!
14:44what do you think his chances are pete
14:55it's probably been a training we get to go that route without him on a test run
15:01but it can't be done he made it
15:14look at that limbs as strong as a young horse
15:20lungs like a whale's when the run of the fish is good
15:25they should produce an extra two three hundred pounds a day
15:30test them
15:31good luck pal
15:43looks like you won the toss
15:45I say I think that's the starting gun

17:28Well, well.
17:43Ho, ho, ho.
17:47Bandar will arrive tomorrow with new quotas, no doubt.
17:51He will expect me to squirm and complain.
17:54He always wanted to put his nephew in charge here.
17:57I think I will surprise Bandar with these new fishermen.
18:02I want to see his face.
18:05Bring them along.
18:27Did they say any more?
18:29They said nothing.
18:30I am sure they have seen my father.
18:32Gato is alive.
18:33Silent.
18:35If the gods who you speak his name, they're going to punish us all.
18:38The sea's taken him.
18:39It's the law.
18:40Now be still.
18:41Well, let them occupy the hut of the old discarded fishermen.
18:51Hear that?
18:52Ah, ha!
18:53There you are.
18:55Now I warned you.
18:56The next time you strayed, you would be punished severely.
18:58And I meant it.
19:00Now, you tore up with me.
19:01Wait.
19:02Stay.
19:02Stay.
19:03Who are you?
19:09Permit me to speak with you, sir.
19:11Stay there.
19:18Oh.
19:19What a lovely place.
19:21My name is Luma, and I am on this expedition from Central City,
19:27and you have just found my two rather ignorant servants.
19:31They're always wandering off.
19:32You know how it is.
19:32And I'm very grateful to you, and I'll just take them right along now.
19:35Now, hold on.
19:37This is all very irregular.
19:38That's not the story they told me.
19:41It isn't.
19:42Well, of course it isn't.
19:44They are liars.
19:45Oh, they are the most terrible liars.
19:47They lie all the time about everything, you know.
19:49But, uh, I'll take them off your hands.
19:52It is out of my hands.
19:55Since they have lied, only the gods of the sea can decide their fate.
20:00Hmm.
20:00Well, uh, that sounds reasonable enough.
20:03Who are these gods of the sea?
20:05The sharks.
20:06The sharks.
20:19I will not have my servants fed to the sharks in order to satisfy some primitive custom.
20:33I'm sorry, my friend.
20:34It may not appeal to your sophisticated Central City taste,
20:39but in areas of production like this with minimum security, it is the law.
20:43Hey, send them out.
20:44Uh, wait!
20:48At least, let me have the satisfaction of giving these troublesome humans a piece of my mind.
20:55Hmm?
20:56Oh, very well.
20:58Oh, very well.
20:59See any chance of getting out of this at all?
21:11I don't.
21:13Here, take this knife.
21:14It may help.
21:20Remind me to tell you someday how grateful we both are.
21:23Liars, huh?
21:24Zilma.
21:25Enough!
21:26Enough!
21:26Send them to the gods!
21:28Watch it, Kevin.
21:30I don't think they're really particular who they shoot.
21:34Move!
21:35Move!
21:58Stay together till I reach the kelp.
22:02I'll try to decoy it.
22:03Oh, my God.
22:33Oh, my God.
23:03Oh, my God.
23:33Oh, my God.
24:03Oh, my God.
24:33I think that's that.
24:35Your law has been carried out.
24:37Now I think I'll take my slaves and be on my way.
24:40I am not so sure about that.
24:43Oh.
24:43The float carrying old Gato to the guards?
24:49It's on the beach with the lashings cut.
24:51Someone has defied the guard.
24:53It is sacrilege.
24:55It is sacrilege.
24:55It is sacrilege.
24:56High treason.
24:57I knew it.
24:58He's alive.
24:59The old man can't be far.
25:01Find him.
25:01I don't think they can leave just now.
25:11I don't think they can leave just now.
25:13This is a matter for Bandor to decide.
25:15If the old man lives, someone must die.
25:21Gato.
25:21He's alive.
25:30It is sacrilege.
25:32I don't think they can leave.
25:32Gato, Gato, Gato, Gato, Gato, Gato, Gato.
26:02Gato, Gato, Gato, Gato, Gato, Gato, Gato.
26:32Gato would be better off if you were, but you are not.
26:35Now, you have got to stay out of sight.
26:38I am dead.
26:39Oh, I am tempted.
26:41I am tempted.
26:43Oh, look, Gato, unless you stay out of sight, others may be killed.
26:47Now, you don't want that to happen, do you?
26:49It does not matter.
26:51It may not matter to you, but most humans do not share your enthusiasm with dying.
26:56I promise you, Gato, I promise you, sooner or later, you will be able to die.
27:02In the meantime, stay in the cave.
27:05Oh, Gato, did you see him?
27:33He was out on the beach.
27:35Gato?
27:36Gato?
27:37Don't mention his name.
27:38Someone might hear you.
27:40Wish I'd never heard it, believe you.
27:41Oh, yeah, me too.
27:43I got him back to the cave.
27:44I hope he stays there.
27:46We'd like to thank you for rushing in there and telling him we were liars.
27:49It was a big help.
27:50Well, I couldn't think of anything else to do.
27:52And besides, if I hadn't found you,
27:55you two would have been banded as fishermen for the rest of your lives.
27:58Hey, we've got to do something.
28:00There's a big wheel that's coming in here tomorrow.
28:02That's Bandor.
28:03He's in charge of many of the producing areas,
28:05and he's the one who presides over the banding of the fishermen ceremony.
28:09Yeah, and you're pretty thick with Hurtan, aren't you?
28:11Can't you get us out of here?
28:12I am primarily concerned that Hurtan's patrols do not find Gato.
28:16I mean, if he points you two out, you will be killed instantly.
28:20Today is fair fish.
28:25Well, wonderful.
28:26Move!
28:27All right.
28:27All right.
28:33Oh!
28:37Where was he when we needed him yesterday?
29:02Move along, you two!
29:07All right, back in the water.
29:23Move!
29:28Great way to make a living.
29:30That's why we're doing it, to keep on living.
29:32Yeah.
29:34Yeah, you know, you go to school, you work hard.
29:37You wind up fishing for raw material for a fertilizer factory.
29:41Yeah.
29:46Year after year, they raise my quotas.
29:50The law requires that I discard worn-out producers like Gato, who can no longer pass the test even before new offspring can be raised to take their place.
30:00Oh, I do so sympathize with your problem.
30:04But then, of course, these two slaves are mine.
30:06Oh, I'm not too sure the law of possession holds out here.
30:09Well, after all, they came to me and asked to be fishermen.
30:13Oh, but they're liars.
30:15Oh, I told you that.
30:16They are such terrible liars.
30:18Oh, but the gods of the sea said differently.
30:21But they'll try to escape.
30:23I am sure of it.
30:25I am having them closely watched.
30:27If they try to leave, they'll be shot.
30:32Well, then you will have gained nothing.
30:34And I will be our two good slaves.
30:36But I told you that it's out of my hands.
30:40When Bandor comes for the ceremony of the bracelets, he will make the decision.
30:44And because Bandor is as interested in increased production as you are, you think that he is going to decide in your favor.
30:51Are you questioning the ethics of Bandor?
30:54He has high connections in Central City.
30:56Oh.
30:57He knows Urko himself.
31:02Urko himself?
31:05Ooh.
31:14That's what he said?
31:23Yeah, well, that's just great.
31:24Bandor knows Urko and Urko knows us.
31:27All the more reason why we should split before the big man gets here.
31:29Yeah, I agree.
31:30Except that Hurtan's got his anti-split devices all over town.
31:33All of this over old Gato.
31:35No one wanted in the first place.
31:38Hello.
31:41Gato is my father.
31:44Come on over here.
31:47It's all right.
31:47Gatlin's a friend.
31:49Hey, sit down.
31:51Why do they do a thing like that to your father?
31:52It is the law.
31:54So that's why Hurtan looked at you when the writer came in with the news.
31:59Romar, my husband, is afraid that we will both die, that we'll all be punished.
32:03And now listen.
32:04We saved your father against his wishes.
32:07We took him to a hiding place.
32:09But he could die there if we don't find some way to help him.
32:11Take me to him.
32:12Yeah, there's nothing we'd like better, but they've got us pretty heavily guarded.
32:16I can help.
32:18You're a prisoner here, but remember, I can come and go as I please.
32:23So?
32:24Well, if she's with me, we can just casually stroll right out of the village.
32:30All right.
32:32Just leave here like you're just taking a walk.
32:34Ready for Din Din?
32:51Take it easy.
33:19Your wife's all right.
33:20Where is Soma?
33:21Hey, quiet, will you?
33:22You're going to wake the gosh-head rifleman out there.
33:23Our friend took her to see her father.
33:25So just calm down.
33:26It's a trick.
33:27The gods are trying to trap her.
33:28Soma!
33:28It's a trick!
33:32Soma!
33:34Soma!
33:36Soma!
33:36Wait here!
33:59I can't move it.
34:11I won't be able to pass the test for Randall.
34:15Here, what do you mean?
34:16I knew it.
34:17I knew it.
34:18Now I'll be given to the sea gods like Gato.
34:20I knew it was death to mention his name.
34:23But you did this.
34:24Sir, a visitor.
34:36Welcome, Bander.
34:56Welcome.
34:57Did you have a good trip?
34:59Tiring?
35:01Mm-hmm.
35:01Whenever you greet me with such big smiles, I have the feeling you are holding bad news behind your back.
35:08Not so.
35:09In fact, I have a special surprise for you.
35:12Hey, the wagon ropes are gone.
35:33Factory workers are getting worse and worse.
35:36I'm not sending the wagon ropes back.
35:37Look, go get some in the storehouse.
35:40You should have checked.
35:41I should have checked.
35:41How about you?
35:44Well, one of them should have checked.
35:46Check.
36:04I'm not interested in projections.
36:08I'm interested in production.
36:09My nephew said that.
36:12Very clever, eh?
36:15Yes, very clever.
36:18Unfortunately, we cannot catch fish with words.
36:21Or promises.
36:23What is this great news?
36:25You have three young ones for me to band to replace the old one you discarded?
36:30Only one has been raised to age and size, but two full-grown fishermen have joined us like they were sent by the gods.
36:42Now, Hurtan is claiming partnership with the gods.
36:51Bring in the two new fishermen.
36:55You'll see.
36:56Two excellent recruits.
36:58They not only spear fish while swimming under the test of fire.
37:02They kill sharks with their bare hands.
37:06Two full-grown fishermen for you to band.
37:10Sent by the gods, you say?
37:14Well, actually, they are runaway slaves.
37:20Once owned by a rather irresponsible chimpanzee named Zuma.
37:25I knew there was some catch to it.
37:29I dispute his claim to them.
37:31He's here.
37:32To claim them?
37:34Does he have papers?
37:39Here, you see?
37:41Strong.
37:42Many prime years of production in them.
37:45You say this Zuma has no papers?
37:49None.
37:49Or why would he have stolen one of our female slaves?
37:54His skins have not been long in the water.
37:57But they kill sharks with their bare hands.
38:00I would say this Zuma has made an unwise move.
38:05We will just let him keep his worthless female.
38:08Tomorrow, at the ceremony, I will ban these two myself.
38:13I knew you would decide quickly and fairly.
38:16Somebody, someone has to keep these producing villagers going.
38:32Pete, that fish is burning.
38:33I don't care if I ever see another fish again, ever.
38:38You know, I don't feel much like spearing fish and ducking sharks for the rest of my life, either.
38:43This thing better work, Alan.
38:44It will, Pete.
38:48But we're going to be fitted with a pair of permanent handcuffs.
38:50Young human!
38:52What's your name?
39:15Young human!
39:16Human!
39:16Human!
39:16Human!
39:17Human!
39:17Human!
39:18Human!
39:18Human!
39:19Human!
39:20Don't worry, everything's settled. You and your father have nothing to worry about. Come along.
39:30New areas are being open for crops. More fertilizer is needed, which means more fish.
39:55There must be a limit. We cannot just keep increasing production.
39:59Now, now, if you keep getting these godsend producers. And where are they?
40:08What?
40:09Well, I don't see these two new surprises who kill sharks with their bare hands.
40:16God, where are the two new producers?
40:22Sir, they're missing. They're not here.
40:24Missing? Your surprises are getting tiresome, Hurtan.
40:30Okay, Al. Let's go fishing.
40:52There they are!
41:08Shoot them!
41:10Wait!
41:10This is where you stop being a dead discard and become a live hero.
41:24If you want your daughter to live, go.
41:27Garton?
41:49Garton?
41:50That's it! Bring it in!
41:54Hey!
41:56Easy!
41:58Easy!
41:59Easy!
42:08Very good.
42:12What is this?
42:13What is this?
42:14Fish by the dozens from some?
42:16From a net, mighty Bandor.
42:18It can trap more fish in a few hours than your men could spear in a month.
42:24Just another of the surprises I promised you.
42:26And even old men and women can fish in this way.
42:28You have all the fish you need, and the gods will be pleased.
42:30So you can let your old people and your injured live on in your village.
42:32That is so!
42:34That is certainly so!
42:36All part of my plan.
42:38Now, the producers will have all they want to eat,
42:42and the security problems will be almost eliminated.
42:46What has this discard to do with your plan, Garton?
43:00Uh-huh.
43:01Mighty Bandor, Garton has saved his greatest surprise for last.
43:05Tell him, Zuma.
43:07Oh, uh...
43:09This matic webbing with chingzing fish is old Garton's idea.
43:15And Hurton has saved Garton,
43:18so that he can teach others how to make and mend the webbing.
43:21It's easy!
43:23Hurton!
43:24I knew you could do it!
43:26Now that is why I have kept you on here,
43:28despite all efforts of those higher-ups to replace you with my nephew.
43:33I appreciate it.
43:35I always do my best, as you can see.
43:40Extra rations for all from now on!
43:45A celebration!
43:47First, we start with the banding ceremony.
43:53Uh, sir, would the mighty Bandor do us the honor of assisting in the greatest catch of all?
43:59And what is that?
44:00Come with me, sir.
44:05It's not fitting that the greatest bounty of the sea should be taken by a mere human.
44:19Therefore, this revolving reel will be held by Zuma.
44:22I don't understand.
44:28Oh, well, you see, uh, uh...
44:30The largest fish can break the net.
44:34But this cord will entangle it in its loop.
44:39Uh-huh, yes, uh...
44:42Well, uh...
44:43Here.
44:45You hold tight.
44:46Tight, tight.
44:48Tight.
44:51Come on, now.
44:52Come along.
44:53We must not keep Bandor waiting.
44:54Aye, aye, sir.
44:57You watch this.
44:58Listen, hold up.
45:12Let's!
45:14Eh?
45:17Eh?
45:19Eh?
45:21Oh, my God.
45:23Eh?
45:25Eh?
45:27Grab a paddle.
45:55Would you rather swim?
45:57Me?
45:59Huh?
46:01End of the line!
46:14Shoot!
46:15Shoot!
46:18At what?
46:27I said you were liars. I just had no idea you were that good at it.
46:43Hey, listen, Gayle. As soon as we're away from here, I want to have a little talk with you about that.
46:47Yeah, and I'd like to discuss this owner-slave relationship with you.
46:50Well, personally, I don't want to have to pull you two out of another scrape.
46:54Right away.
46:55Right away.
46:57Ahhh!
47:00Make a mistake!
47:04Corona scra cookies, wait!
47:05Oooooh!
47:07Oh!
47:08THE END
47:38THE END
