00:00:00Sail home!

00:00:19Where are we?

00:00:21Light off the port's mouth.

00:00:24She's a British man aboard.

00:00:30Starland Fortway, take him back.

00:00:37Starland Fortway, take him back.

00:00:41Starland Fortway, take him back.

00:00:52Starland Fortway, take him back.

00:00:59Come, come Captain, you have Englishmen aboard.

00:01:01Will you be so good as to muster your men?

00:01:03Yes, master of this ship.

00:01:04I'll not stand for the impressment of American seamen.

00:01:08You have exactly three minutes before we blow you out of the water.

00:01:12Line up your men.

00:01:14Muster the crew.

00:01:32Your name?

00:01:33Edward Jones.

00:01:36You were born in Liverpool, weren't you?

00:01:38Aye, but I'm an American.

00:01:39I lived in Boston for over 20...

00:01:40...British forever, British.

00:01:42That's His Majesty's law.

00:02:10We count it as a nation, and free peoples stand idly by while American sailors are dragged from their ships and impressed into British service...

00:02:14...never to see their families or loved ones again.

00:02:17...never to see their families or loved ones again.

00:02:21The ocean that washes these freedom-loving shores was meant to be free.

00:02:23God created it that way, and the right to sail upon it should be limited only...

00:02:26...by the right to sail upon it should be limited only by the skill and the daring and the mental venture upon its deep.

00:02:30But what is the situation today?

00:02:33At this very hour, a British fleet lurks outside our harbor...

00:02:37...impressing our seamen, commandeering our cargoes...

00:02:40...Gentlemen, I must interrupt to bring you a message...

00:02:44...of extremely important...

00:02:45...from the Congress of the United States.

00:02:45...As of yesterday, June 18th...

00:02:46...June 18.

00:02:47...June 18.

00:02:48...June 18.

00:02:49...June 18.

00:02:50...18.

00:02:51Between this country and the united kingdom...

00:02:53...of great Britain's independence...

00:02:55...of great Britain's independence...

00:02:56...and not only by the skill and the daring and the men...

00:02:57...of great Britain's independence...

00:02:58...not only by the skill and the daring and the men who venture upon its deep.

00:03:00But what is the situation today?

00:03:01At this very hour, a British fleet lurks...

00:03:02...outside our harbor...

00:03:04...impressing our seamen, commandeering our cargoes.

00:03:06Gentlemen, I must interrupt to bring you a message...

00:03:10...of extreme importance from the Congress of the United States.

00:03:14As of yesterday, June 18, 1812,...

00:03:17...between this country and the United Kingdom of great Britain...

00:03:20A state of war exists.

00:03:26Mr. Parsons, I must ask you for the fastest ship out of sail.

00:03:31Ask Captain Marshal to come to my office, please.

00:03:39Captain Marshal?

00:03:41Mr. Parsons!

00:03:49Hello, Caleb.

00:03:50Thank you for coming, Jim.

00:03:52Colonel Rogers, this is Captain Marshal.

00:03:54How do you do, sir? Good evening, sir.

00:03:56The Colonel rode all the way from New York. Rode I flew.

00:03:59There was daylight between me and that saddle most of the way.

00:04:02Mr. Parsons tells me you're the master of a fast ship.

00:04:05Caleb should know. He built her.

00:04:07Jim, how soon could the Concord be made ready for the sea?

00:04:1024 hours.

00:04:12Why?

00:04:13A group of French citizens have arranged to lend us 10 million in gold.

00:04:16Money surely needed to build a fleet to fight the British.

00:04:19President Madison has ordered us to send a ship to Le Havre to get it.

00:04:22Why don't the French deliver it to us?

00:04:24At the moment, France is not at war with England.

00:04:26This is a private loan subscribed by French citizens.

00:04:29Their government daren't offend the British by allowing a French ship to carry the gold.

00:04:33Can you do it?

00:04:35There's a British fleet sitting off Salem Harbor right now.

00:04:38And the French coast will be blockaded by the time you get there.

00:04:41I'm not worried about getting in, Colonel.

00:04:43It's getting back with 10 million in gold bullion.

00:04:45That's a big risk.

00:04:46It's a risk that must be taken, Jim.

00:04:48It can mean the difference between winning and losing the war.

00:04:51What about it?

00:04:53We might be able to do it with the help of one man.

00:04:57You better get the counsel in here before I mention his name.

00:05:00I'll play, I'll play, don't worry.

00:05:02That's my money.

00:05:03I'll play, I'll play, don't worry.

00:05:05That's my money.

00:05:06I'll play, I'll play, don't worry.

00:05:07That's my money.

00:05:08I'll play, I'll play.

00:05:09Come on, come on.

00:05:10All right.

00:05:11There you go.

00:05:12I'll play, I'll play.

00:05:13Come on.

00:05:14Come on.

00:05:15Come on.

00:05:16Come on.

00:05:17Come on.

00:05:18Jim.

00:05:19Jim Marshall, it can't be, man.

00:05:20I heard you've been sunk with all hands.

00:05:23I cried, man.

00:05:24The room was awash with my tears.

00:05:25There were a lot of tears and tears of tears in my eyes.

00:05:40All right.

00:05:41Jim Marshall, it can't be, man.

00:05:44I heard you've been sunk with all hands.

00:05:46That's right, man. The room is awash with my tears.

00:05:49Oh, ladies, allow me to present Captain Jim Marshall,

00:05:52who can carry more sail and in rougher weather

00:05:54than any master afloat.

00:05:55Don't forget who taught me that.

00:05:56That's right, Jim. Teacher and pupil, eh?

00:05:59She arrived a minute earlier. There'd have been a girl for you.

00:06:02I suppose you scattered these seagulls from your rig.

00:06:05I'd like to talk to you seriously.

00:06:07You'll have to go, ladies. He's going to scold me.

00:06:10You know, I didn't tell you before. It's a dark family secret,

00:06:13but Captain Marshall is really my grandfather.

00:06:17Now, say goodbye to him. Good night.

00:06:19Who do they remind you of, Jim? Nobody I know of. Why?

00:06:22Look again. Can't you see the likeness? To whom?

00:06:25Why, to Leslie. Who else?

00:06:27Clarice here. Has her eyes.

00:06:30Margot. See the fine nose and the brow? They're Leslie's.

00:06:33And Myrtle. The throat and shoulders.

00:06:41Identical.

00:06:43Good night, ladies.

00:06:49Good night, ladies.

00:06:55You still haven't forgotten her, Ben?

00:06:57I forgot her four years ago when she left me.

00:06:59I only keep her portrait to remind me how well I've forgotten her.

00:07:04What do you want to see me about?

00:07:06We're at war, Ben.

00:07:08So that's what all that noise and shouting was about.

00:07:10They've commissioned my ship to run the British blockade.

00:07:14I can't do it without your help.

00:07:16I haven't had a deck under my feet for two years.

00:07:22Nobody wants to trust a ship to a man who's been cashiered from the Navy, even if it was the British Navy.

00:07:30Master of my own ship again.

00:07:34I bet the town council squealed when my name came up, didn't it?

00:07:37What did you tell them, Jim?

00:07:38That I know the tactics of His Majesty's Navy as well as Nelson himself?

00:07:41That and more, Ben.

00:07:43To be sure you did, Jim.

00:07:44Well, when do we sail?

00:07:46What's our destination?

00:07:47The Concorde's loading now.

00:07:48We need a daybreak for Le Havre.

00:07:50We're picking up something.

00:07:51To France.

00:07:54Is Leslie still there?

00:07:56Yes, she's in Paris.

00:08:01There might be a chance for you to see her, Ben.

00:08:03There's just one thing.

00:08:06You won't be going as ship's master.

00:08:10You'll have to sail as my first officer.

00:08:14I see.

00:08:16I'm sorry I misunderstood.

00:08:19Under the circumstances, I must refuse.

00:08:21Ben, I'd have been proud to serve under you.

00:08:23But the council wouldn't hear of it.

00:08:25Remind the council for me that I was a captain at 22,

00:08:27the youngest commander of a ship in His Majesty's Navy.

00:08:30It's a little late for me to be taking first officer berths.

00:08:33Ben, this country gave you refuge when you needed it most.

00:08:36It needs your help now.

00:08:38You can't refuse.

00:08:46Very well, Jim. I'll go on two conditions.

00:08:48You give me time to see Leslie when I get to France,

00:08:50and I want the right to pick my own gun crew.

00:08:52We'll not get through this without a fight, you know.

00:08:55Permission granted, Mr. Walridge.

00:08:56Thank you, Captain.

00:08:58We sail with the tide tomorrow night.

00:09:00Get your crew and store your gear aboard.

00:09:02The crew's below. All I have to do is sober them up.

00:09:04As for my gear...

00:09:12First Officer Benjamin Walridge reporting, sir.

00:09:14Hook, where are you?

00:09:24Sykes! Redlegs!

00:09:26Flavisham!

00:09:27Hook, you're drunk.

00:09:28No, sir. The grog's not yet been brood that can un-sober the old Hook.

00:09:31Line the men up. I want to talk to them.

00:09:33Aye, sir.

00:09:34All right, you men, on your feet.

00:09:37Mr. Redlegs!

00:09:40You're drunk!

00:09:41I'm real disappointed in you.

00:09:43All right, fall in over there.

00:09:45All right, your lovers, on your feet.

00:09:47Captain wants to talk.

00:09:48All right, get in.

00:09:49All right, get in.

00:09:50All right, get in.

00:09:51All right, get in.

00:09:52All right, get in.

00:09:53All right, get in.

00:09:54Master Gunner and crew ready and able for duty, sir.

00:09:58It's a pleasure to see you can still enjoy yourselves, men.

00:10:00But now we have business to attend to.

00:10:02Business that'll take you off the beach for a while.

00:10:04Have them aboard the Concorde at Derby Wharf within an hour

00:10:07and sober enough to meet their new commander, Captain Marshall.

00:10:09You're not going with us, Captain?

00:10:10I'm sailing as first officer in charge of gun crew.

00:10:12Any further questions?

00:10:13You're second in command, Captain?

00:10:14You heard me.

00:10:15You're in charge, Hook.

00:10:16Gear the men up and get them aboard.

00:10:17Aye, sir.

00:10:18All right, boys.

00:10:19To the ship.

00:10:20All right.

00:10:21All right.

00:10:22All right, boys.

00:10:23To the ship.

00:10:24All right.

00:10:25All right.

00:10:26All right.

00:10:27All right.

00:10:28All right, boys.

00:10:29To the ship.

00:10:30And then it's tardy.

00:10:31You'll feel the weight of this.

00:10:35Oh.

00:10:36What's he up to?

00:10:37Huh?

00:10:38Second in command.

00:10:39That's not like Walridge.

00:10:40And who is this goody two-shoes, Captain Marshall?

00:10:43Now, ain't you the suspicious one, Mr. Red Lakes?

00:10:45Don't the captain always take good care of his old shipmates?

00:10:48I tell you, it don't add up straight.

00:10:50I say trust the captain.

00:10:52He makes more sense crazy drunk than most men does sane and sober.

00:10:55Something's fishy, and I don't mean the Finney kind.

00:10:58A blockade to run, and no mention of destination or cargo.

00:11:01If the captain's got something up here, let us know sooner or later.

00:11:04In the meantime, stole that talking turn, too.

00:11:07Don't hurt myself.

00:11:08Oh, no wonder what's he going to say.

00:11:09I'll have two invitations.

00:11:13Oh.

00:11:14Ah, oh.

00:11:16Oh.

00:11:17Oh.

00:11:18Let's go.

00:11:44There it is!

00:11:45Who is down there?

00:11:47What do you make of this contraption here?

00:11:48Why, ain't you never heard the captain speak of his submersible?

00:11:51Oh, yes, I have, but I thought it was the grog that was talking.

00:11:54You mean this wooden tub can travel under the water?

00:11:57Like a runaway mackerel, two men sits inside it and works these here propellers with foot pedals.

00:12:02They breathe through them long pipes.

00:12:04It's against nature, Oak.

00:12:06Wild seahorses couldn't drag me inside that devil's coffin.

00:12:09Sail underneath the water, indeed.

00:12:12Why, it's unchristian.

00:12:13Captain Marshal, plotting's completed, sir.

00:12:15Park couldn't be thicker if we'd ordered it.

00:12:17We mustn't lose this tide. Shove out.

00:12:19No lights to be shown, no bells to be sounded. We'll try and drift through them.

00:12:21Aye, sir.

00:12:22And, Mr. Hackett, not a sound out of anyone.

00:12:24I'll log the first man jacked at so much as whispers.

00:12:45No smell of British yet.

00:12:48In this fog, they'll stand well off Cape Ann.

00:12:53That's a British ship, no doubt of it.

00:12:55Lee Helm, quarter point.

00:12:59Steady, sir.

00:13:04Mr. Hackett, boost all men to shrouds.

00:13:06Had them ready to make full sail when I give the word.

00:13:08Want them to be silent.

00:13:09Every sound carries in this fog.

00:13:15Captain, there's a large ship approaching toward us just off the starboard bow.

00:13:19Helm, hard down.

00:13:20Helm, hard down.

00:13:21Sheets and braces there.

00:13:22Ballet.

00:13:31We'll have to run for it, Ben.

00:13:32I know that ship.

00:13:33We're hopelessly outgunned.

00:13:35What about that underwater craft of yours?

00:13:37Oh, they'd be on us before we had time to launch it.

00:13:39I have an idea how to cripple her without a fight.

00:13:43She's directly abeam about a hundred yards.

00:13:45You'll hear her directly when you're in the water.

00:13:46Make straight for the rudder.

00:13:47You can swim faster than she's moving.

00:13:49Yes.

00:13:50You'll be sure to wait for me, Captain.

00:13:51We'll send the bell once after the explosion.

00:13:53That'll do it.

00:13:54Good luck.

00:14:02Good luck.

00:14:03Good luck.

00:14:05Good luck.

00:14:07Good luck.

00:14:09Good luck.

00:14:10Good luck.

00:14:11Good luck.

00:14:12Good luck.

00:14:13Answer that, Ben.

00:14:15British Loop mermaid, Captain Cavanaugh with supplies from Canada.

00:14:21What ship is that?

00:14:23Good luck.

00:14:25My Majesty, Brigade, Forsyth, Captain Galassian!

00:14:35Ahoy!

00:14:37I'll wake you up!

00:14:45Don't sound it again.

00:14:48Bounds and water!

00:14:51They too to be identified!

00:15:06Ship close on the starboard beam, sir!

00:15:08Come there, ships.

00:15:09Awesome, throw away the longboat!

00:15:12Away, longboat!

00:15:17Come here!

00:15:21Did it!

00:15:23The Baccata's just spotted three British ships off the stern.

00:15:25They'll close formation and boxers in.

00:15:26Full sail and hold it close.

00:15:28You have your orders, Mr. Fowler.

00:15:29Excuse me, sir, Captain Marshal is in command.

00:15:32We cannot stay here, Jim.

00:15:33We've got to wait for our land.

00:15:35You have your orders, Mr. Fowler.

00:15:37Excuse me, sir.

00:15:38Captain Marshall is in command.

00:15:39We cannot stay here, Jim.

00:15:40We've got to wait for our land.

00:15:42Marshal is in command.

00:15:43We cannot stay here, Jim.

00:15:45We've got to wait for our land.

00:15:47Sound the bill once.

00:15:48But you'll be giving our position away.

00:15:49I gave my word, Ben.

00:15:50But we've got to get away from here.

00:15:51One bell.

00:15:55You're jeopardizing the entire mission.

00:15:57Everything is ready to move, sir.

00:16:01There's Red Lake now.

00:16:02Throw him a line.

00:16:07The stack is full sail.

00:16:09Course north.

00:16:10Lay up close.

00:16:11Well done, Red Lake, sir.

00:16:12Thank you, Captain.

00:16:13Thank you for waiting for me.

00:16:14Take him below.

00:16:15See to his cover.

00:16:16All right, sir.

00:16:39Jim.

00:16:40If I may say so, that was a stupid risk to take.

00:16:42Under the circumstances, I felt it was necessary.

00:16:44But the entire mission was at stake.

00:16:45You jeopardized the ship and its crew for one man.

00:16:47I gave my word.

00:16:48He risked his life.

00:16:49But this is war, man.

00:16:50Even war doesn't relieve us of our responsibilities to our fellow man.

00:16:53But let's leave it that way, shall we?

00:16:55Come on, a little chatter course.

00:16:56What's she making?

00:16:5714 knots.

00:16:58She's a fast one.

00:17:02You might can turn her.

00:17:04Anybody talk to Walridge yet?

00:17:05No.

00:17:06Why?

00:17:07The whisperers were bound for France.

00:17:08Well, that's logical.

00:17:09A secret mission in wartime?

00:17:10Sailing without cargo?

00:17:11Don't you want to know why?

00:17:12Not especially.

00:17:13I know how to find out.

00:17:14How?

00:17:15The captain's cabin is directly below.

00:17:16Hang over the side and have a look.

00:17:17And I'll give you a whistle if anyone comes.

00:17:21How?

00:17:22How?

00:17:23The Whisperers were bound for France.

00:17:25Well, that's logical.

00:17:26A secret mission in wartime?

00:17:28Sailing without cargo?

00:17:30Don't you want to know why?

00:17:31Not specially.

00:17:32I know how to find out.

00:17:35How?

00:17:35The captain's cabin is directly below.

00:17:38Hang over the side and have a look.

00:17:40And I'll give you a whistle if anyone comes.

00:17:53What about one of these little fishing villages here?

00:18:04You're right.

00:18:06After getting through the British fleet at La Habe,

00:18:08our biggest worry will be getting this gold bullion aboard.

00:18:11Can't hide ten million dold in your pockets, you know.

00:18:14We'll worry about that when we come to it.

00:18:23What is it?

00:18:39What did you hear?

00:18:41Ten million in gold bullion.

00:18:43Gold bullion?

00:18:44Where?

00:18:45I'm taking it up in France.

00:18:47I heard it with my own two ears.

00:18:49Ten millions.

00:18:51Wait till the boys hear this.

00:18:52Ah, let's not be too hasty, Mr. Redlegs.

00:18:55We can tell the boys any time.

00:18:57First, we ought to have a little chat with the captain.

00:19:00If he wants to play square with us, well and good.

00:19:02But if he dukes us...

00:19:08Captain.

00:19:18What is this?

00:19:19If you two men want to see me, why don't you come to my cabin?

00:19:21Beg your pardon, Captain.

00:19:23It might look a bit suspicious.

00:19:25What with that Captain Marshal bobbing in and out.

00:19:28Hook and me knows our place.

00:19:30Don't we, Hook?

00:19:30That we does indeed, sir.

00:19:32Nothing like the Navy to teach a man his proper place.

00:19:36What are you two getting at?

00:19:38Hook and me has a figure like this, Captain.

00:19:41Should there be any trouble on the quarter deck before this voyage is finished?

00:19:44We'd like you to know whose side we're on.

00:19:46And that goes for the others and the gun crew, too.

00:19:48What makes you think there'll be trouble on the quarter deck?

00:19:51Two captains is bad luck for any ship, sir.

00:19:54And ten millions in gold.

00:19:56Anything can happen when there's gold aboard ship, sir.

00:19:59How many of you know about this?

00:20:05Only me and Redlegs, sir.

00:20:07That's all.

00:20:08If you mention this to anyone, I'll have you up for conniving at mutiny.

00:20:11Do you understand?

00:20:13You can trust us, sir.

00:20:14Never a whisper.

00:20:16Not even to my own mother.

00:20:18Why it is the grave.

00:20:21Five...

00:20:22millions...

00:20:23Five millions...

00:20:25Five millions...

00:20:27Divisored by two, three, four, six, seven, eight.

00:20:33Eight.

00:20:33Oh, oh.

00:20:34Stand away, give him air.

00:20:36Can't you see the man sailing uncharted waters?

00:20:38Give him air to breathe in there.

00:20:40One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

00:20:45One, two, three, four, five...

00:20:48What is it you need, matey?

00:20:49Can I help you?

00:20:51Look, lift up my feet.

00:20:53I'll need my toes to mathematic this out.

00:20:55Here, use these.

00:20:56And the hook.

00:20:57Good as five fingers any day.

00:20:59I never mathematiced in the millions before.

00:21:02All hands on deck, you lubbers.

00:21:04Mate says all hands will have to take in sail.

00:21:07That's ordinary semen's work.

00:21:09Let the ordinary semen tend to it.

00:21:11I'll deliver your message to the mate.

00:21:13He'll have an answer for you, too.

00:21:15With a cat.

00:21:15Uh, we'll go aloft.

00:21:19It's best not to attract any attention to ourselves.

00:21:21Besides, we wouldn't want anything to happen to the ship now, would we, mateys?

00:21:45You sure you don't want some of the crew to go ashore with you, sir?

00:21:55Captain Waldridge and I will manage by ourselves.

00:21:56If we're not back by Friday midnight, send as many crewmen as you can spare.

00:21:59Tell them to inquire at the mayor's house in Le Havre.

00:22:01Aye, sir.

00:22:02Just the two of them to fetch all that gold?

00:22:11I can't figure it.

00:22:13You think we can trust Waldridge?

00:22:14The captain needs us.

00:22:15He can't take the ship without us.

00:22:17Don't worry, Redwigs.

00:22:18I'm not worried about Waldridge.

00:22:20It's that goody two-shoes, Captain Marshall.

00:22:23He may talk soft, but he's tough underneath.

00:22:26Wait till he runs up against this.

00:22:27The hook will soften him.

00:22:28Aye.

00:22:34Any sign of them yet?

00:22:36Not a speck.

00:22:3784 hours.

00:22:38They should have been back by now.

00:22:40Most are a longboat crew.

00:22:41We'll have to go to Le Havre.

00:22:42That was the captain's orders.

00:22:44Take a couple of Waldridge's gunners.

00:22:46They'll come in handy if there's trouble.

00:22:49Any of Waldridge's gun crew here?

00:22:53Mr. Potter, it's a high and mighty gun crew of Captain Waldridge.

00:22:56They won't even associate with us common seamen.

00:22:58Won't even eat with us.

00:22:59Oh, they're a dainty lot.

00:23:01Well, where are they?

00:23:02As soon as I relieved of duty, they jump below to gamble.

00:23:04Gamble?

00:23:05What with?

00:23:06I've seen them bet a thousand gold on the turn of a card.

00:23:09They take it serious, too.

00:23:11Redlegs keeps an account of who's winning and who's losing.

00:23:14They must be getting into the grog.

00:23:16Andrews, go below.

00:23:17Fetch hooking some of his men to man the longboat.

00:23:19You wish us to see me, Mr. Faversham?

00:23:27First, I'll double my wager.

00:23:29Five thousand gold sovereigns.

00:23:30Mark it down.

00:23:31Five thousand gold sovereigns.

00:23:34And now, Mr. Faversham, I'll double you.

00:23:37Ten thousand.

00:23:37What have I got to do me in the book?

00:23:44Your original share was one hundred thousand.

00:23:47You're now down to, uh, fifty thousand.

00:23:50Ten thousand more.

00:23:52You can't do it.

00:23:52Why can't I?

00:23:53It's my goal.

00:23:54It was agreed that no man could gamble away more than half his share.

00:23:57Otherwise, he might lose interest in taking part in a small mutiny.

00:24:00I don't want to hear that ugly word spoke again.

00:24:02What makes you so sure we'll get the gold?

00:24:23Was you looking for something, Mr. Andrews?

00:24:26Was you eavesdropping, Mr. Andrews?

00:24:28That's not nice.

00:24:29I didn't hear a thing.

00:24:31The hook here says you heard every word.

00:24:33We can't let him go.

00:24:34Let's cut him in.

00:24:35Would you like to come in with us, Mr. Andrews?

00:24:37Sure, sure.

00:24:38I'll go along with you.

00:24:39But look, the shares are so even.

00:24:41I'll have to mathematic them all over again.

00:24:44I won't talk.

00:24:44You can trust me.

00:24:45I won't say a word.

00:24:46What brought you down below?

00:24:50We're just thirsty.

00:24:51That's all.

00:24:55Drink.

00:24:59Drink.

00:25:00Drink.

00:25:21And now, Mr. Faversham,

00:25:22before we were so rudely interrupted,

00:25:25you was wagering what?

00:25:28It's your game, Hook.

00:25:31Yeah.

00:25:35You'll be washed overboard tonight.

00:25:38All hands on deck!

00:25:40Let's go.

00:25:50It's them.

00:25:51They're being overtaken.

00:25:52Look, clear away your gun.

00:25:54Aye.

00:25:59They're gaining on us.

00:26:01Why don't they cover us?

00:26:02Get down there.

00:26:11Get down there.

00:26:19On.

00:26:25All right, boys.

00:26:26Hurry it up.

00:26:26It must be in the chests.

00:26:57Aye, the chests.

00:27:01Fabrega Hoist, get that boat aboard.

00:27:03Stow the anchor in the cable locker.

00:27:05Aye, sir.

00:27:06That was a close squeeze, ma'am.

00:27:07You all right?

00:27:08Get her below, Ben.

00:27:10My prints, are they all right?

00:27:11The man will bring them aboard.

00:27:12If I can make full sail.

00:27:14Set a course south by west.

00:27:15Stay close to the shoreline.

00:27:16Our friends may be back.

00:27:16Aye, sir.

00:27:17Aye, sir.

00:27:26Oh, my darling.

00:27:37My captain.

00:27:38Leslie.

00:27:40Leslie.

00:27:40How often I've spoken that name and you weren't there to answer.

00:27:43Do you know what I thought when those English agents were firing on us?

00:27:48I thought we're going to die.

00:27:50But at least we'll die together.

00:27:57Don't ever leave me again, Leslie.

00:27:59Never again.

00:28:04Oh, I'm so proud of you.

00:28:06This is such a beautiful ship.

00:28:08We'll be able to start all over again.

00:28:10Make a new life for ourselves in America.

00:28:13We're getting underway.

00:28:14I'd better go up on deck.

00:28:16I'd better change my dress.

00:28:18When next you see me, I shall be so beautiful you won't recognize me.

00:28:23Excuse me.

00:28:24I'll need you on deck to help with the navigation.

00:28:26I'll be right up.

00:28:27If we stay close in, they may not spot us.

00:28:28It'll be a miracle if they don't.

00:28:30The coast's alive with British agents.

00:28:32I want to thank you, ma'am.

00:28:33We'd never reach the people we had to without your help.

00:28:36I regret having to bring you aboard.

00:28:38As soon as it's safe, we'll lower a longboat and have you returned.

00:28:41I expect Captain Walridge hasn't had time to tell you, Mr. Marshall,

00:28:44but I'm not going ashore.

00:28:46I'm making the trip with you.

00:28:47That's impossible, ma'am.

00:28:49As soon as it's safe, we'll have...

00:28:50Jim.

00:28:51With the British squadron breathing down our necks,

00:28:53I think our first concern...

00:28:54Just a minute.

00:28:54Since when does Captain Walridge take orders from his first officer?

00:29:03I'm sorry, ma'am.

00:29:04I'm in command of this ship.

00:29:06Not Captain Walridge.

00:29:10On this voyage, I volunteered as first officer.

00:29:13Why didn't you tell me in Le Havre?

00:29:16Jim, if you put Leslie ashore, you'll have to put me ashore with her.

00:29:19I'll hold you by force if necessary.

00:29:21It will be necessary.

00:29:22You'll please get ready, ma'am.

00:29:29So the mighty Captain Walridge is now taking orders from a schoolboy.

00:29:32Leslie, it was the only way I could get to see you.

00:29:34And what did the great new life we wouldn't have?

00:29:36On what?

00:29:37A first officer's pay?

00:29:38Go ahead.

00:29:39Have a drink, Captain Walridge.

00:29:40Have two.

00:29:40Drown your sorrows like a common seaman, but it won't wash down the lies you've told me.

00:29:44I did it because I love you.

00:29:45Was it love back there in Le Havre when you talked like King Midas?

00:29:47Millions you had.

00:29:48Have another drink.

00:29:49Maybe it'll refresh your memory.

00:29:50Please, Leslie, you've said enough.

00:29:51Have I?

00:29:52For you, perhaps.

00:29:53Not for me.

00:29:54I'm getting off this boat and out of your life forever.

00:29:55Go ahead.

00:29:56This time, I won't try to stop you.

00:29:57This time, I won't try to stop you.

00:29:59Come on.

00:30:00Come on.

00:30:01Come on.

00:30:02Come on.

00:30:03Come on.

00:30:04Come on.

00:30:05Come on.

00:30:06Come on.

00:30:07Come on.

00:30:08Come on.

00:30:09Come on.

00:30:10Come on.

00:30:11Come on.

00:30:12Come on.

00:30:13Come on.

00:30:14Come on.

00:30:15Come on.

00:30:16Come on.

00:30:17Come on.

00:30:18Come on.

00:30:19Come on.

00:30:20Go away.

00:30:21Brung your trunks down for you, ma'am.

00:30:23Well, you can take them right back up again.

00:30:25I'm leaving.

00:30:34Didn't you hear me?

00:30:35I said take them back on deck.

00:30:37Aren't you going to open them up?

00:30:39You can trust us, ma'am.

00:30:41Close as that to Captain Waldridge we are.

00:30:43Get out of here before I have you both flunked.

00:30:48I wouldn't call if I was you, ma'am.

00:30:50You've a pretty throat.

00:30:51I'd hate to have it catch on the hook, accidental-like.

00:30:56Let's open them up, bread legs.

00:30:58We'll see for ourselves.

00:30:59You're insane, both of you.

00:31:13We're milked.

00:31:14I knew it.

00:31:15A thousand years of the blackest luck.

00:31:17You must have brought it on board with you.

00:31:18Where is it?

00:31:19You wouldn't have sailed without it.

00:31:20I don't know what you're talking about.

00:31:22Where is what?

00:31:23The gold.

00:31:24Ten millions of it.

00:31:25The gold we made this blasted trip for.

00:31:27So that's what he was talking about.

00:31:30Then you do know about it.

00:31:32Of course.

00:31:33I thought it was only talk.

00:31:36If it's not in the trunks, where is it?

00:31:38Well, it must be on board.

00:31:41They got whatever they went ashore for.

00:31:43I heard them say so.

00:31:44Did you lose an anchor on the way across?

00:31:47What did you do with the one you brought aboard?

00:31:50Stowed in the forward locker.

00:31:53Can we see it?

00:31:54We can try, but it isn't a place for a lady to go.

00:31:58That anchor's what I think it is.

00:32:00I can forget I'm a lady.

00:32:20Well, I don't know, but I'm a man.

00:32:27Gold.

00:32:28Ten million in gold.

00:32:33You're dirty.

00:32:34And you smell of tarn you haven't shaved for weeks,

00:32:37but I think I love you both.

00:32:39Being a true seafaring man,

00:32:41anchors has always been my weakness.

00:32:44Change course. West by south, quarter south.

00:32:59West by south, quarter south, sir.

00:33:06I'm sorry about Leslie, Ben.

00:33:08Everything happens for the best in this best of all possible worlds.

00:33:12Maybe she can join you later.

00:33:15Leslie will do what's best for Leslie.

00:33:16She's preparing to return to Paris now.

00:33:19Lights off the starboard bow. Lowdown on the horizon.

00:33:23There goes another beacon. They've got us spotted all right.

00:33:27They're signaling the British squadron.

00:33:29We'd better head south where there's plenty of room to run for it.

00:33:34Go below, Ben. Chart us a course. Keep us as close as you can to the shoreline.

00:33:38Maybe we can lose them by daybreak.

00:33:39Yes?

00:33:48Ben?

00:33:48Ben, I've looked all over the place for you.

00:33:53The first officer of a ship's a busy man.

00:33:57I'm sorry, Ben. I've hurt you. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. It was just a disappointment.

00:34:03We had such wonderful plans together for America.

00:34:06Won't you forgive me, Ben? Please.

00:34:09That's funny.

00:34:10I was wrong. I have no right to ask you to love a failure.

00:34:13I'll not hear you say that.

00:34:15You're not a failure. You're my captain.

00:34:17Oh, we've had such wonderful dreams and plans for the future.

00:34:20I want to help you make those dreams come true.

00:34:23It's too late. Marshall's going to put you ashore at the first safe moment.

00:34:26Darling, you underestimate women.

00:34:29Captain Marshall's at a disadvantage.

00:34:32Now, if you were captain of this ship,

00:34:34and I asked you very prettily not to put me ashore,

00:34:38could you refuse me?

00:34:39Your prisoner's escaped, Captain.

00:34:55Not my prisoner. Only my guest man.

00:34:58Oh, is it American politeness to order their guests from the house?

00:35:02Set them down where their enemies can destroy them?

00:35:05The responsibility of this ship, its crew, and a very important missioner in my hands.

00:35:09I have to guard against all hazards.

00:35:12Am I such a hazard?

00:35:13A ship in wartime is hardly the place for a woman.

00:35:16A woman's place, in war or out, is beside the man she loves.

00:35:20Have you ever loved anyone, Captain?

00:35:23So much so that every day, every hour spent apart from that person isn't living at all?

00:35:27I'm very happy for Ben's sake that you've learned to care for him so deeply.

00:35:31He went to pieces pretty badly when you left him.

00:35:34Four years ago.

00:35:36Because I was wrong four years ago that I want to be right this time.

00:35:40He needs me desperately.

00:35:42You're his friend.

00:35:44It's in your power to help him.

00:35:46He's started to drink already.

00:35:48I'll arrange for you to join him in America when the war is over.

00:35:52Beyond that, there's nothing I can do.

00:35:54Sail ho!

00:36:03Where are we?

00:36:05Bearing fine on the starboard corner, sir.

00:36:07She's a big one.

00:36:14She's coming fast.

00:36:16Looks like a 74 gun.

00:36:17Left, quarter point. Steady so.

00:36:19Left, quarter point.

00:36:20She's the Aurora. Fastest ship in the General Fleet.

00:36:23It couldn't be worse.

00:36:23We outrunning?

00:36:24In this wind, not a chance.

00:36:26Clear the decks for action. General Corder's there.

00:36:27Aye, sir.

00:36:28Come on, take a look at the chart.

00:36:37We can't reach open sea. We've got ten hours of daylight ahead of us.

00:36:51We've got our range.

00:36:53Look here, Jim.

00:36:55Look at this reef. Tucson Shoals, it's called.

00:36:57It's about four miles south of us. We're here.

00:37:00Twelve years ago, the ship I command us struck bottom here in open water,

00:37:03part of an uncharted reef.

00:37:04I checked every Admiralty chart.

00:37:06They show twelve fathoms, but I hit bottom at three.

00:37:09I suggest that we head for the shoals,

00:37:11then turn suddenly as if striking out to sea.

00:37:12The Aurora will cut across to intercept us.

00:37:14Our only hope is if we get through and she sticks on the reef.

00:37:17Will the Aurora draw enough water to strike bottom?

00:37:19Well, a ship of her class draws about 18 feet, probably more.

00:37:22We're drawing less than 12.

00:37:24We've got to risk it.

00:37:25I'll have a ledsman take us out.

00:37:26Get that bow down out of action.

00:37:32Soon we'll never make the shoals.

00:37:33There's a platter.

00:37:36I think this one count, Hooker, we'll all hang.

00:37:42Hold on, Miss.

00:37:43Great, you remember.

00:37:44Good work, Hooker.

00:37:57Ten for shore water, Captain.

00:38:12I know.

00:38:13We'll be beached.

00:38:14Hold your course.

00:38:15Five, Mr. Seat.

00:38:17Oh!

00:38:17Ten for five minutes.

00:38:18That should be close enough to hit us with the broadside.

00:38:20And a half, four!

00:38:32Five, the deep, three!

00:38:35The Aurora can't get through here.

00:38:37Can we?

00:38:40Big strike!

00:38:44It's okay, White.

00:38:45She's over.

00:38:51She's almost on us.

00:38:52In another minute, she'll be within broadside range.

00:38:54Mr. Hackett, bring her about.

00:38:56Elm hard down.

00:38:57Elm hard down.

00:38:58Brace is intact.

00:38:59Back your tops out.

00:39:00Lighten the ship.

00:39:09Over to the side with the gun.

00:39:10There's no good to us now.

00:39:12Over with it.

00:39:13Every pound counts.

00:39:14Loosen the gun shackles.

00:39:16Better go in the next row.

00:39:17Or a whale carrier over.

00:39:18Aye, and us with it.

00:39:19Goodbye, meteorite.

00:39:20I'm clear!

00:39:21All the way!

00:39:51We're over the reef!

00:39:53Hold it slow!

00:39:54Hold it slow!

00:40:15She stays on court.

00:40:16She'll be on the reef before she can fire again.

00:40:21May I propose a toast to a very beautiful and charming guest who once and for all dispels

00:40:46the ancient lie that a woman aboard ship brings bad luck.

00:40:50Hear, hear.

00:40:50I accept your gallant tribute, Captain, in the name of all women.

00:40:54To the success of our venture.

00:40:56Now it's my turn.

00:41:01But instead of a toast, it becomes my unpleasant duty to reprimand Captain Marshall.

00:41:07Today he did a very foolish thing.

00:41:09At the risk of losing his ship and his own life, he saved mine.

00:41:14Captain Marshall, the action you took today to save one crew member was unwarranted.

00:41:18However, all I can say is, thank you, Jim.

00:41:24The reprimand is acknowledged, but the thanks are out of order, Ben.

00:41:28You'd have done the same for me.

00:41:31Would I?

00:41:32I wonder.

00:41:34Ben, there may be some doubt in your mind.

00:41:37But believe me, there's none in mine.

00:41:38Robert, watch all dead.

00:41:39I'm afraid that's me.

00:41:42If you'll excuse me, I'll leave you two to carry on.

00:41:53You've grown very fond of Captain Marshall, haven't you, Ben?

00:41:56Why not?

00:41:58It reminds me of my youth.

00:42:00Once I, too, had plans for the future.

00:42:02The Admiralty used to say I'd command a fleet one day.

00:42:05That was yesterday.

00:42:07I'm thinking of tomorrow, a lot of tomorrows for you and me.

00:42:10Here's to tomorrow.

00:42:12You mustn't let friendship interfere with your plans.

00:42:15You mentioned plans once before.

00:42:17Just what plans are you referring to?

00:42:19Oh, don't be elusive, my darling.

00:42:21All those golden promises you made to me in Paris.

00:42:23I'm going to hold you to them.

00:42:25Didn't you think it was just a little bit strange that I didn't go ashore?

00:42:30I found out about the anchor.

00:42:34Who told you?

00:42:35Your Mr. Hook isn't as secretive as you are.

00:42:39I'll stretch his neck for this.

00:42:40Well, it's not be hasty.

00:42:41We may need his help.

00:42:44Leslie, I admit I did consider such a plan, but I'm not going through with it.

00:42:51What made you change your mind?

00:42:52Have you grown soft?

00:42:53I've grown tired of living under a cloud.

00:42:56Being known in every port as the captain who stole the ship's payroll to pay a woman's debts.

00:43:00This voyage will give me a new chance.

00:43:03The United States trusts me.

00:43:04Once back in Salem, I'll have recognition.

00:43:06We can start a new life there.

00:43:07Are you blind?

00:43:09Recognition of who?

00:43:10Captain Marshall's in command of this ship.

00:43:12He's the hero of this mission.

00:43:13You're only the first officer.

00:43:15You'll get everything.

00:43:15You'll get nothing.

00:43:16There's honor enough for everyone.

00:43:18Jim will share with me.

00:43:19I know he will.

00:43:19Haven't you enough sense to know when you're being used?

00:43:22Could he have succeeded without you?

00:43:23Who saved his ship from back there when the British had him trapped?

00:43:27And who saved my life?

00:43:28Was it worth saving, Ben?

00:43:30You said yourself you couldn't live without me.

00:43:33Well, I can't live without the things that make a woman's life worth living.

00:43:38Take your choice, Ben.

00:43:40Ten million in gold and me or nothing.

00:43:48It's madness.

00:43:49The only mad thing would be to give up without trying.

00:43:51You had a plan once.

00:43:53You must go through with it.

00:43:55The fat's in the fire now, Ben.

00:43:56The hook has told the others.

00:43:57They're awaiting your commands.

00:43:58It's too late to stop them now.

00:44:01If we should fail, hanging isn't a pretty death by this, Lee.

00:44:08We've waited too long for such a chance.

00:44:11Don't talk of failure now.

00:44:16I'll go find Hook.

00:44:21We'll be at the Azores tomorrow night.

00:44:26I say we take the ship right there.

00:44:28We still have most of the ocean to cross.

00:44:30Should we meet a British ship or run into a gale, we'd be shorthanded.

00:44:33I don't like this stalling, Captain.

00:44:34And I don't like this interference.

00:44:36Either we do it my way or not at all.

00:44:37What's your plan, Captain?

00:44:39We'll proceed this way.

00:44:42Marshal will sail from the Azores following this route.

00:44:44At this point, he'll change course and pick up the northeast trades to Salem.

00:44:47There's only one logical place to take over the ship.

00:44:50This is it.

00:44:51That makes good sense to me.

00:44:52How are you disposing of the anchor?

00:44:54We'll melt it down and use brokers in Havana.

00:44:56What happens to Captain Marshal?

00:44:57You'll leave Marshal to me.

00:44:59Anything else?

00:45:01Come on, Hook.

00:45:02We've stood with Captain Walridge before.

00:45:04I stand with him now.

00:45:06You better do the same.

00:45:08Agreed.

00:45:10Thank you, watch.

00:45:11We're 150 miles from the Bahamas.

00:45:27We better change course and proceed north.

00:45:29I'll hold our present course till midnight, then change.

00:45:31We have a stout wind with us.

00:45:32Let's not lose it.

00:45:34In five days, we'll be off Salem Harbor.

00:45:36It'll be good to be back, Ben.

00:45:38Yeah.

00:45:41You know, something's been bothering me.

00:45:45What's that?

00:45:46Well, you've done your share, Ben.

00:45:48It should have been a joint command.

00:45:50When we were right into Salem Harbor, that's the way I want it to be.

00:45:54I can't accept.

00:45:55I insist, Ben.

00:45:57Excuse me, Captain.

00:45:58The pivot's jammed on one of the deck guns.

00:46:00Maybe you better have a look at it.

00:46:02I won't have it any other way, Ben.

00:46:04See how you feel about it tomorrow.

00:46:11Where's she jammed?

00:46:15Nothing's jammed, sir.

00:46:16Everything's ship-shaped, Captain.

00:46:17We're nearing the Bahamas.

00:46:19When do we change our course?

00:46:20Eight bells.

00:46:21It'll be dark tonight.

00:46:23What's the signal?

00:46:24I'll give it to you.

00:46:26Give it to us now, Captain.

00:46:34At eight bells, I take the watch.

00:46:36That's the signal.

00:46:37Good enough.

00:46:42Ben?

00:46:44Leave me be, Lizzie.

00:46:45You've only got a few minutes.

00:46:47I know.

00:46:49What are you worrying about?

00:46:50In a well-armed, it'll go like clockwork.

00:46:53No.

00:46:57You won't be sorry, Ben.

00:47:01With this ship we can sail to the Far East.

00:47:04To Singapore.

00:47:04With the gold we can buy ourselves a new future.

00:47:10One night's work and it's all ours, Ben.

00:47:15Hurry, Ben.

00:47:18Let's go.

00:47:34Let's go.

00:47:48On deck, Captain.

00:48:06Quick, there's a mutiny.

00:48:17Hold the course.

00:48:18Half east.

00:48:19Half east.

00:48:33Captain Walter, your men are a mutiny.

00:48:42Ben, cut off your men or I'll shoot.

00:48:48What have you done?

00:48:49Take him below.

00:48:50What have you done?

00:48:51Take him below.

00:48:52What have you done?

00:48:53Take him below.

00:48:54What have you done?

00:48:55Take him below.

00:48:56What have you done?

00:48:57What have you done?

00:48:58What have you done?

00:48:59Take him below.

00:49:04What have you done?

00:49:05What have you done?

00:49:06What have you done?

00:49:07What have you done?

00:49:08What have you done?

00:49:13This is better than grog, huh?

00:49:31Aye, we must have a stock of this.

00:49:37Sykes, you look like a real gentleman.

00:49:43Come in, Leslie.

00:49:57Meet your new ship's officers.

00:49:59Get them out of here, Ben.

00:50:01Please.

00:50:03You heard the lady.

00:50:06Back the folks over here.

00:50:07Come along.

00:50:12You too.

00:50:13Me?

00:50:14I'm second mate now.

00:50:16You are, are you?

00:50:21First officer, Hook.

00:50:22Your humble servant, your lady ship.

00:50:28I don't think your men impressed the lady, Hook.

00:50:30They're good boys, Captain.

00:50:31Just a little excited, that's all.

00:50:33I'll keep them under control.

00:50:34Chuck the grog overboard.

00:50:35I want every man sober.

00:50:36And collect all the firearms and lock them back in the armory.

00:50:39Rig a flogging post, and the first man that breaks an order gets 20 lashes.

00:50:42Hop to it.

00:50:42Aye, sir.

00:50:43What have you done with Marshal?

00:50:54He's in irons.

00:50:56And the crew?

00:50:57They're in irons too, down in the hole.

00:50:58What are you going to do with them later?

00:51:01When we get to Havana, I'll release them.

00:51:04Marshal?

00:51:05You'll get the same treatment as the others.

00:51:07He's not the same as the others.

00:51:09They've only lost their freedom for a little while.

00:51:12He's lost his ship.

00:51:13He'll never forget.

00:51:14Are you suggesting I kill him?

00:51:16If you let him live, he'll kill you.

00:51:18You'll have to find us first.

00:51:19We'll be on the other side of the world.

00:51:21He'll never give up until he does find you.

00:51:24You know that as well as I do.

00:51:25I'll take my chances.

00:51:27Hook and the others, they're not squeamish.

00:51:29If you don't kill him, I think they will.

00:51:31Just checking to see that Captain Marshal was comfortable, sir.

00:52:00Go ahead, Ben.

00:52:10Get it over with.

00:52:17What are you waiting for?

00:52:25I want no witnesses.

00:52:30Get out of that port.

00:52:54Here's a compass.

00:52:55You're 50 miles from shore.

00:52:57West, northwest.

00:52:58There's a plank.

00:52:59There's a paddle.

00:53:00You've one chance in a thousand.

00:53:01Take it.

00:53:01From now on, we're even.

00:53:02You just hanged yourself, Ben.

00:53:27Okay.

00:53:32Go ahead.

00:53:32Come on.

00:53:32Let's go.

00:54:02I beg your pardon for ever having doubted you, Captain.

00:54:32Let's go.

00:55:02Let's go.

00:55:32Let's go.

00:56:02Let's go.

00:56:32Hey, Pete!

00:57:00Hey, Joe!

00:57:10Go get car!

00:57:11Where am I?

00:57:22You've been near Buford, Georgia.

00:57:25How long?

00:57:27Oh, most a week now.

00:57:30I've been unconscious all that time.

00:57:32Do you rouse and rave a little, you rouse and rave a little, then fall asleep.

00:57:35We notified the Navy like you said.

00:57:38Now, now, lad.

00:57:39You gotta rest.

00:57:41You're in no condition to move.

00:57:43Hey, Pa, they're coming.

00:57:44Hey, Pa, they're coming!

00:57:44Are you Captain James Marshall?

00:57:53Yes.

00:57:54The American ship Concord?

00:57:56Yes, sir.

00:57:57I have orders to bring you before a board of inquiry in the shortest time possible.

00:58:00Captain, while we argue, Wildridge is slipping away with the gold.

00:58:13I've got my orders, Captain Marshall.

00:58:15Are you suggesting that I disobey them?

00:58:17I'm suggesting you save 10 million in gold.

00:58:19There's only one place Wildridge can dispose of it.

00:58:21Brokers in Havana.

00:58:22Well, he's probably there already.

00:58:24He'd have to stop at some island in order to melt the anchor down.

00:58:27But he's had a week on us.

00:58:28Half that time would be spent melting the gold down.

00:58:30Besides, his crew is short-handed.

00:58:32If we set about now, we can intercept him.

00:58:34What do you think, Mr. Stone?

00:58:37Washington's been burned by the British.

00:58:38We need that gold desperately.

00:58:40What have we got to lose, sir?

00:58:41I beg of you, set about now.

00:58:42It may mean the winning of the war.

00:58:44Set a new course.

00:58:46South by a quarter west.

00:58:48Aye, sir.

00:58:49That'll bring her up at Havana.

00:58:50Thank you, sir.

00:58:52Oh, hello there, sir.

00:59:02Oh, hey, there.

00:59:05Have you decided to make these guns break in these waters?

00:59:10You can't answer your description night and five days ago.

00:59:14You can't kill it flat.

00:59:15Five days?

00:59:16That's a tremendous head start.

00:59:18Alert the crew.

00:59:20You can see it full sail.

00:59:22If this wind holds, we still have a chance.

00:59:25It'll have to.

00:59:26Walters won't dare sail into Havana openly.

00:59:28No broker will touch that gold before it's melted down into Incus.

00:59:32He'll put into an island someplace.

00:59:34The Caribbean is full of little islands.

00:59:37It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

00:59:39Most of them are inhabitants.

00:59:40He'll put into one that isn't.

00:59:42That's where we'll have to look.

00:59:52Lyle, up to the snobber thief.

01:00:15Any sign of her?

01:00:16She was sighted three days ago off Lemberg Island.

01:00:19Direct on course to Havana.

01:00:21Havana's a two-day voyage.

01:00:22We can never overtake her.

01:00:23No, there's still a chance.

01:00:25The British man-of-war, Britannica, is guarding the harbor to Havana.

01:00:29She's an 80-gunner.

01:00:31Walridge can never get past her.

01:00:32There are dozens of small bays all along the Cuban coast she could slip into.

01:00:37What do you think Walridge will do?

01:00:39Lember.

01:00:41Lember's uninhabited.

01:00:43A good anchorage.

01:00:44An ideal place for him to melt the anchor down unobserved.

01:00:47No, it's as good a guess as any.

01:00:49Mr. Stone.

01:00:51Set course for Lember.

01:00:52Aye, sir.

01:01:08When did you see this big ship off Lemberg Island?

01:01:11Only yesterday.

01:01:13I got her name, too.

01:01:15What was it?

01:01:16The Seaspray.

01:01:17The first thing Walridge would do would be to change her name.

01:01:20Did you board her?

01:01:21They wouldn't let me board her.

01:01:23I tried to sell them some fish, but all they wanted was Grog.

01:01:27Was there an Englishman among them?

01:01:28No, but when they found out I had no Grog, they cussed like a pack of pirates, especially a bit full of work with a hook on his arm.

01:01:38Oh, he had a mean tongue.

01:01:40That's the Concord, all right.

01:01:41There'll be a full moon tonight.

01:01:43It's going to be difficult to take her by surprise.

01:01:47It may not be as difficult as we think.

01:01:50How much Grog have you got aboard?

01:01:52That's the last of them.

01:02:10Two stars stoke below proper.

01:02:13The gold's all aboard, Captain.

01:02:15We'll be ship-shape in about an hour.

01:02:16Why didn't you put that fire out?

01:02:18Oh, it got too big. It'll burn itself out.

01:02:20The Britannica's in these waters. I want no chances taken. She may spot us. Put the fire out.

01:02:24We'll be out of here by eight bells, Captain.

01:02:26Not in this calm. We won't have a breeze until morning tide.

01:02:30What's another night with ten million in a hold?

01:02:32I want a strong hand kept on the men.

01:02:34Don't let up on the discipline. Post a double watch on deck and on the prisoners.

01:02:37What about those prisoners, Captain? How long are we going to carry them?

01:02:40We'll drop them outside Havana Harbor.

01:02:42We could drop them here.

01:02:44That's an order.

01:02:46Nice.

01:02:48Where'd you get the shrewd, Hook?

01:03:03Compliments to the captain.

01:03:04Yes, when he wasn't looking.

01:03:06You insinuating I'm a thief?

01:03:08Why, no, Hook. Everyone knows you've got a fine character.

01:03:11We're all fine characters.

01:03:13You wait till we split up our shares. I'll show you how a gentleman lives.

01:03:16Hook! That fisherman is hauled to again.

01:03:19Tell him to go sink himself.

01:03:21He says he's got grog.

01:03:23Grog?

01:03:29Keep a weather eye out for the captain.

01:03:30What are you selling this time?

01:03:34You said you wanted grog. It's real.

01:03:37Come on up.

01:03:38Oh, no. I want my money first.

01:03:41And none of those lead coins either.

01:03:43Will you take gold?

01:04:05Ben.

01:04:06What's happened to the men?

01:04:08I had the grog thrown overboard the night we took the ship.

01:04:14You must have hidden some.

01:04:32Come on,

01:04:33Go.

01:04:34What do I do say?

01:04:35When the moon found there lived the way,

01:04:41That she was mistress, mother's age,

01:04:45I go for a road with you, bear me,

01:04:49A road with a road, in this room,

01:04:52A street my room, I ain't go for a road with you, bear me.

01:04:53Who's meant to go for a road with you, bear me?

01:04:57A rovin', a rovin', since rovin''s been my roin' past.

01:05:27Look out! Drop your arms.

01:05:31Out for the man! Go on, get him!

01:05:57Watch out!

01:06:27Go!

01:06:52Put on your arms, you mutin'!

01:06:57All right, you scum. Get in line.

01:07:00This all of them?

01:07:01All that's still alive, sir.

01:07:02Where's Waldridge?

01:07:03He went below.

01:07:04Come on.

01:07:06It's Marshal. He's caught up with us.

01:07:08Marshal? You mean he isn't dead?

01:07:10Oh, you fool! You idiot! I told you!

01:07:12We have no time to talk about that now. We still have a chance. Come on.

01:07:27Call off your men.

01:07:31Call off your men or I'll blow this ship all over the ocean.

01:07:35Take the men above.

01:07:36Aye, sir.

01:07:41Unless I have your word, Leslie and I will be set free in the Bahamas.

01:07:44I can't do that, Ben.

01:07:46You have five seconds to save this ship, its crew and cargo.

01:07:49Ben, if you'll surrender, I promise you that Leslie will go free.

01:07:52No charges will be brought against her.

01:07:55Ben, let me go free.

01:07:57We don't both have to die.

01:07:59Your five seconds are up.

01:08:01Oh, wait, Ben!

01:08:02Have you forgotten? We were going to be together always in everything.

01:08:05You don't want to leave me now, do you?

01:08:07Please, Ben, if you love me.

01:08:08I do. Too much to part with you, my darling.

01:08:11Oh, Ben, please let me live. Please, please. I want to live, Ben.

01:08:22Captain Marshal!

01:08:23The British!

01:08:25The Britannica, sir.

01:08:26She's driving off the Juniper and blockading the harbour.

01:08:28She'll be sailing in to get us next.

01:08:30Did you hear, Ben? A British ship, we're saved!

01:08:32How long before she gets to us?

01:08:34We're in shallow water now, but the tide's coming fast.

01:08:36I'd say about three hours.

01:08:38You may as well surrender, Captain Marshal.

01:08:41Have the crew stand by, ready to scuttle the ship.

01:08:44Aye, sir.

01:08:45No, no!

01:08:46The British will never take my ship or its cargo.

01:08:51Leslie!

01:08:58Mr. Potter, get the men off the ship as soon as you can.

01:09:10Aye, sir.

01:09:12Aye, Captain.

01:09:13Did you give Captain Marshal my message?

01:09:14Aye, Captain.

01:09:15Why doesn't he come?

01:09:16He'd be kind of busy, Captain.

01:09:17But don't worry.

01:09:18He won't leave you down here when he sinks the ship.

01:09:19But if you get him before it's too late, he may not have to sink her.

01:09:21Did you tell him what I said, that he may not have to scuttle?

01:09:22Here he be.

01:09:23Here he be.

01:09:24Tell him yourself.

01:09:25Oh, Jim!

01:09:26Jim!

01:09:28Did the guard tell you?

01:09:29You've got one chance.

01:09:30One chance in a hundred to save your ship.

01:09:31I can't make any deals with you, Ben.

01:09:32This time, you can't help yourself.

01:09:33That submersible on deck.

01:09:34It was made for an emergency like this.

01:09:35He was made for an emergency like this.

01:09:36If you get back up, no.

01:09:37It's nothing to do with your ship.

01:09:38What a good one.

01:09:39It's nothing to do with you, Ben.

01:09:40Well, I can't do it.

01:09:41I can't do it.

01:09:42I can't do it.

01:09:43Well, I can't do it.

01:09:44I can't do it.
