00:06:09The End
00:06:13Madam, uh, it's raining.
00:06:16I'm afraid you are getting wet.
00:06:17Miss Davis, I've gotten another rickshaw boy.
00:06:21Come on, come on.
00:06:30You shouldn't have done that, Miss Davis.
00:06:33Oh, I couldn't help it. Everybody was so callous.
00:06:35I know, but human life is the cheapest thing in China.
00:06:50I can't help it.
00:07:00Oh, I do hope the Bishop's going to like them.
00:07:00Ooh, here comes the bride!
00:07:01Oh, I do hope the Bishop's going to like them.
00:07:07This is a wonderful event, isn't it?
00:07:09Yes.
00:07:10Oh, here comes the bride!
00:07:12Shh, shh, shh. Here comes the ride. Here comes the ride.
00:07:20Megan Davis. My plan, child. It's been 11 years since I saw you last. Let me look at you.
00:07:31Folks, this is Miss Megan Davis.
00:07:34Take a good look at her, because in half an hour, the poor thing will be Mrs. Robert Strike.
00:07:39No, no, no. You can't get acquainted with her now.
00:07:41She's got to get ready for the slaughter. Come on, Megan.
00:07:47But I can't understand it. The owner of the car looks so civilized.
00:07:52I wonder who he was.
00:07:54Some rich merchant taking refuge in the settlement.
00:07:58But don't be fooled about his looking civilized.
00:08:00They're all tricky, treacherous, and immoral.
00:08:02I can't tell one from the other. They're all Chinamen to me.
00:08:08Who is it?
00:08:12He's here.
00:08:13Who's here?
00:08:14The groom.
00:08:15Bob?
00:08:16Oh, downstairs.
00:08:18Here, wait a minute, wait a minute. Here's your hat.
00:08:20Oh, yes.
00:08:33Bob.
00:08:34Megan.
00:08:37Let me look at you, Bob.
00:08:39Oh, will you forgive me? I simply couldn't meet you at the boat.
00:08:41Oh, I'd forgive you anything.
00:08:43Well, that's good, because...
00:08:44Listen, Megan.
00:08:45What's the matter, Bob?
00:08:47Well, listen, dear.
00:08:48St. Andrew's orphanage is in terrible danger.
00:08:50I've got to get a safe conduct pass to get into the war zone and bring out the children.
00:08:53What? Isn't there going to be any weddings?
00:08:54I'm sorry, Mrs. Jackson. The wedding will have to be delayed.
00:08:56But don't you worry. I'll be right.
00:08:57Are you going to pass from the American consulate?
00:08:59No, none of the foreign authorities can do anything.
00:09:00I've got to get a pass from one of the Chinese generals.
00:09:02That's what we call our gangsters here. Generals.
00:09:04Uh, which one, Bob?
00:09:07General Yan.
00:09:08General Yan?
00:09:09General Yan?
00:09:09You don't mean the man that expelled all the missionaries from his province?
00:09:12Yes, he's in Shanghai now under an assumed name.
00:09:15I... I think I know where to find him.
00:09:17I don't see how you can possibly ask that bandit for any favors after the way he treated you.
00:09:20Well, I hate to, but he's the only man who can get me through the nationalist lines.
00:09:23I've got to go now before I lose track of him.
00:09:26Well, where's Megan?
00:09:28I'm ready, Bob.
00:09:29Now, Megan, you can't go with me.
00:09:30Of course I can.
00:09:31Now, I'm not going to allow you to risk your life in Sharpay tonight.
00:09:33It's too dangerous.
00:09:34If there are any bandit generals to be tamed or children to be rescued, I'm in on it.
00:09:37What do you think I came to China for?
00:09:39I wouldn't let her go, Bob.
00:09:41If you ask me, I'm proud of her.
00:09:43Come on, Megan.
00:09:45God willing, we'll be back in two hours.
00:09:47With a carload of orphans.
00:09:50That's great to be young.
00:09:51Oh, dear, my wedding's all spoiled.
00:09:54If it isn't the war, it's the orphans.
00:09:55The food's spoiled and the flowers will be all spoiled.
00:09:58Well, it's not your wedding.
00:10:00Oh, you keep still.
00:10:01Did you take your magnesia?
00:10:03No.
00:10:10Is this the bandit's case?
00:10:11Yes.
00:10:12Now, you sit right here in the car.
00:10:14If anyone speaks to you, just glare at them.
00:10:16No.
00:10:19Bring the general with you.
00:10:21Maybe he'd like to go with us.
00:10:28Why are you doing this?
00:10:30You are not in a morning.
00:10:30There are so many places where they're amazing.
00:10:32I'm not the only ones who have iched you.
00:10:33I think I'm helping you.
00:10:38I want to help you.
00:10:38I want to give you the money.
00:10:39You want to help me?
00:10:39I need help you.
00:10:41I need help you.
00:10:41If you are my money, I'm not helping you.
00:10:43Never mind that.
00:10:44With your provinces in the deal and you commanding,
00:10:46they'll get what they lack now.
00:10:49What is it?
00:10:49Money, money, money.
00:10:54Keep your shirt on. Keep your shirt on.
00:10:57He handles the army and the provinces.
00:10:59But when it comes to money, he listens to me.
00:11:12Striker, Xinjiang. How'd you have been?
00:11:15How'd you strike? I wonder what that bird wants.
00:11:20I'll keep going.
00:11:21Whoa, wait a minute.
00:11:23You'd better see him.
00:11:24He knows you're in Shanghai and he may make it hot for you.
00:11:27Stall him off. Get rid of him.
00:11:31All right.
00:11:40Oh, Dr. Stike, my old friend.
00:11:42I'm sorry to intrude like this, General,
00:11:44but it's a matter of the utmost importance.
00:11:46Naturally, everything you do is important.
00:11:48I want a safe conduct pass to Chape.
00:11:50What or not do you want to go there for?
00:11:52As in Inferno.
00:11:53That's why I must go.
00:11:54Our orphanage is between the lines.
00:11:56The children are in danger.
00:11:57We've got...
00:11:57Oh, orphans.
00:11:59What are they, anyway?
00:12:01People without ancestors?
00:12:02Nobody.
00:12:03Please sit down, Doctor.
00:12:05I'll get you a glass of wine.
00:12:06General, you don't understand.
00:12:07Later on, we'll be entertained by some sing-song girls.
00:12:11Say, Doctor,
00:12:12Have you never been curious about sing-song girls?
00:12:15Hmm?
00:12:16General, will you please give me that pass?
00:12:18Look here, Doctor.
00:12:20I'm not supposed to be in Shanghai.
00:12:23If my name is seen on the pass,
00:12:25it will do me great harm with the foreign authorities.
00:12:28If you don't give me that pass, General,
00:12:30I'll tell the foreign authorities you're here.
00:12:38Here's to your very good help, Doctor.
00:12:53General, I think the boys are about ready to talk turkey on those provinces now.
00:12:57Why bother me with affairs of state when I have orphans to consider?
00:13:01Oh, hello, Doc.
00:13:03How's the missionary racket?
00:13:04Say, I heard you were thinking getting married tonight.
00:13:08Yes, I postponed it to come here.
00:13:10What?
00:13:11You mean to say that you left the prospect of a beautiful woman's loving arms?
00:13:17With some nameless brats?
00:13:19Certainly, Herbchen never finds that out.
00:13:21Please, please write that pass, General.
00:13:24Able to read Chinese yet, Doctor?
00:13:26Not yet, General.
00:14:02They escaped the fire anyway.
00:14:04But the place looks deserted.
00:14:06Maybe they're gone.
00:14:07Miss Reed wouldn't go.
00:14:11Soldiers.
00:14:12Come here, Come here!
00:14:15Where are they?
00:14:17That's exercise!
00:14:17Look at it!
00:14:20What is your turnes on?
00:14:24How do you want?
00:14:25What?
00:14:27Tell me.
00:14:34What an earth is toять because I'm always tempted.
00:14:34You believe you might any debtors
00:14:35надо get to our wives?
00:14:52Here they go!
00:14:52What do they want?
00:14:53They're laughing so it would be all right.
00:15:09Stand back from the door, dear.
00:15:10Then I will shoot.
00:15:17Where are the children?
00:15:18In the next room. There are only six left.
00:15:20The rest were taken away by friends.
00:15:22Good. We can take them all in one trip.
00:15:23All right, Dr. Stryker.
00:15:34Let's go.
00:15:34Bob, I don't trust that pass.
00:15:36Do you think we ought to risk taking the children out now?
00:15:51They've taken our car.
00:15:52Oh, never mind. We'll have to take a chance on foot.
00:15:54No, Doctor. I'm responsible for these children.
00:15:57They were placed in my care.
00:15:58I can't risk their lives on foot.
00:16:00But the fire's only a block away.
00:16:01We can get Rick Shores to the North Station.
00:16:03Oh, please, Miss Reed. We ought to do what Bob says.
00:16:13Oh, my God, Noah!
00:16:25Megan.
00:16:26Megan.
00:16:27Megan.
00:16:27Megan, I think you'd better take this pass in case we get separated.
00:16:31Come on, now.
00:16:32Keep close together.
00:16:37Straight ahead, Megan.
00:16:42Megan, get back here.
00:16:44Megan, get back here.
00:16:46Megan, get back here.
00:16:46Megan, get back here.
00:16:48Megan, get back here.
00:16:54Megan, I'm sorry.
00:16:56Megan, I'm sorry.
00:17:16Go straight ahead.
00:17:21Megan, go.
00:17:28There's the north station over there.
00:17:49There's the north station over there.
00:18:07Come on!
00:18:08Hey!
00:18:10Hey!
00:18:30Doctor, will you come, Doctor?
00:18:45Doctor, will you come, Doctor?

00:19:48Good job, Al-Zanah.
00:19:55Feeling better now?
00:19:59Do you feel better?
00:20:05I believe I do.
00:20:07Then drink some tea.
00:20:10I don't think I can.
00:20:11Please try.
00:20:15Oh, you mustn't be frightened.
00:20:18No one will hurt you here.
00:20:20Please, try to drink some tea.
00:20:34The General thinks it will do you good.
00:20:36The General?
00:20:47I'm terribly sorry for you.
00:20:50But you are all right now.
00:20:52I'm charging myself personally to take care of you.
00:20:56Haven't I seen you someplace before?
00:20:59You were kind enough to offer me a handkerchief.
00:21:02Oh, yes.
00:21:05How did I get here?
00:21:06My car arrived just as you were being roughly handled by the crowd.
00:21:10Then you rescued me?
00:21:12You wish to put it that way?
00:21:14How are you?
00:21:15Yeah.
00:21:17Are we on a train?
00:21:19My troop train.
00:21:21Oh.
00:21:23I believe I'm well enough to get off at the next station.
00:21:25I'm sorry.
00:21:26Only military trains are running.
00:21:28There is a civil war, you know.
00:21:31Will I be able to let my friends know I'm safe?
00:21:34Everything will be arranged.
00:21:36Please, try to sleep now.
00:21:38I will have you call while we arrive.
00:21:46You're welcome.
00:22:16You're welcome.
00:22:28You're welcome.
00:22:48I will have you.
00:22:50Why doesn't people know how they should enjoy it?
00:22:51Why don't you?
00:22:53Let's go.
00:23:03And let's go.
00:23:15Let's go.
00:24:09Uniforms. I know. All you guys think of is uniforms.
00:24:15Hello, Jones.
00:24:16Hi, Ian.
00:24:17You raised that money?
00:24:18Did I raise that money?
00:24:19See, I got a whole boxcar full of it.
00:24:21I had to hock half your province to get it, but I got it.
00:24:24Have you heard from General Feng?
00:24:26Not yet.
00:24:27He's still got another day to make up his mind.
00:24:30You may have to convince me with lead instead of silver.
00:24:33Oh, keep your shirt on.
00:24:35I have to get you on.
00:24:35And sell half your ammunition to get that dough.
00:24:37I'll tell you when to go.
00:24:38I haven't scared you wrong yet, have I?
00:24:42How long will it take me to put my boat in commission?
00:24:45Boat?
00:24:45You ain't going anywhere till you get rid of this thing deal.
00:24:48What's the matter? Aren't you interested in this war anymore?
00:24:50Say, where are those invoices?
00:24:52Say, snap out of it, some of you guys.
00:24:54Linda.
00:24:57Haven't got something new on the string, have you?
00:25:00I want to send a missionary back to Shanghai.
00:25:02Well, send him back in a freight car.
00:25:04My propaganda budget's about exhausted.
00:25:07I'm going to send this lady back in my yacht.
00:25:09Uh-huh.
00:25:10I had a hunch it was a female.
00:25:13Who is she?
00:25:14Bride of a lamb.
00:25:16Bride of a lamb?
00:25:17Young lady.
00:25:19We're going to marry Dr. Strike.
00:25:21Aye.
00:25:22I found our, our famous safe conduct past in her pocket.
00:25:27Say, this isn't anything to laugh at.
00:25:29We got to get rid of her pretty quick.
00:25:31We've had enough trouble with that guy Strike.
00:25:33I think we have underestimated a good doctor.
00:25:36He seems to have excellent taste.
00:25:38In some things.
00:25:39Yeah, well, never mind that.
00:25:40I'm not going to wait to put me boat in commission.
00:25:41She goes back to Shanghai tonight if I have to send her back in a freight car.
00:25:46Jones, Jones, Jones.
00:25:47I'm afraid guarantee is not one of your vices.
00:25:53More jump.
00:25:56No jump.
00:25:59Food tour.
00:26:02$5 million.
00:26:10Don't go.
00:26:15Assault.
00:26:19Let's go.
00:26:25Let's go.
00:26:47Let's go!
00:26:49No! Stop!
00:26:51Super!
00:26:57Super!
00:26:59Open the door!
00:27:14Open the door!
00:27:33Good morning. Are you better?
00:27:35Where are we? What is this terrible place?
00:27:38This is General Yan's summer palace.
00:27:41General Yan?
00:27:43The bandit?
00:28:01Good morning.
00:28:06I hope you slept well.
00:28:10Oh, I'm sorry.
00:28:19Good morning.
00:28:22Good morning.
00:28:24Good morning.
00:28:25Good morning.
00:28:26Good morning.
00:28:28Good morning.
00:28:33Good morning.
00:28:38And have in Tipps.
00:28:38There's a famine in my province
00:28:40And I have no rise to feed my prisoners
00:28:44I assure you, it won't happen in the future
00:28:47They are taking the rest of them down the road
00:28:49Out of earshot
00:28:52A cigarette
00:28:53I have brought Turkish and Virginia tobacco
00:28:56I've never heard anything so cold blooded in all my life
00:28:59But isn't it better to shoot them quickly than let them starve to death slowly?
00:29:11Holla.
00:29:12Don't go, please.
00:29:14Holla.
00:29:24Please sit down and have your breakfast.
00:29:26Why did you drug me on the train? I don't remember a thing.
00:29:29You are in great pain.
00:29:32And sleep makes a long journey very short.
00:29:35You didn't have to bring me here.
00:29:38Why didn't you send me back to Shanghai?
00:29:40I intend to.
00:29:41But it isn't safe to send you back by rail.
00:29:48Please sit down.
00:29:50I don't believe you.
00:29:51You're lying.
00:29:53I'm sorry.
00:29:55But you are making a mistake.
00:29:56Dr. Strike told me all about you.
00:30:02You yellow swine.
00:30:04If you think that...
00:30:14I advise you to send me back to Shanghai just as soon as you can.
00:30:23You will always find me your most humble servant.
00:30:39You see this?
00:30:51Now you're laughing at it.
00:30:52Tell me once she goes back to Shanghai in a freight car.
00:30:55You lose.
00:30:58She's not going back at all.
00:30:59Are you nuts?
00:31:01Do you want that guy's strike to turn your province upside down?
00:31:05Haven't you seen the Shanghai newspapers?
00:31:08I think she's dead.
00:31:15I think I'll shave.
00:31:23Say, wait a minute.
00:31:24Wait a minute.
00:31:25Wait a minute.
00:31:25Listen.
00:31:26I've never interfered in your private affairs before.
00:31:29But don't forget, this is a white room.
00:31:33That's all right.
00:31:34I have no prejudice against the color.
00:31:43Well, it's no skin off my nose.
00:31:52eBay.
00:31:53Hey!
00:31:54Turn back.
00:31:58eBay.
00:31:59Up!
00:32:11Come in.
00:32:17Good evening, Miss Davis.
00:32:19General Yen-
00:32:20Send his compliments and humbly request the honorable presence of Miss Megan Davis for dinner for the third time.
00:32:26And for the third and last time, Miss Megan Davis says no.
00:32:32Molly.
00:32:37Were you able to send that note to Dr. Strike?
00:32:39Yes.
00:32:41Do you think you could send another?
00:32:42I want to make sure he gets it.
00:32:45Maybe.
00:32:49This is all I have left.
00:32:52Can you do it with that?
00:32:57Maybe.
00:32:58Maybe.
00:32:58Here.
00:33:05Molly, I'll never forget this.
00:33:13Oh, speak English.
00:33:16What did she say?
00:33:17She said no for the third and last time.
00:33:23Well?
00:33:50Don't you go ahead and come.
00:33:54So, stop going, Peck.
00:33:54Oh, God.
00:33:56Oh, my God.
00:34:02Oh, my God.
00:34:13Hey, hey, hey.

00:34:18Let's go.
00:34:52Let's go.
00:35:23Let's go.
00:35:54Let's go.
00:36:23Let's go.
00:36:53Let's go.
00:37:06Let's go.
00:37:08Let's go.
00:37:58Let's go.
00:38:14Let's go.
00:38:20Let's go.
00:38:40Let's go.
00:38:42Let's go.
00:38:49Let's go.
00:39:09Let's go.
00:39:13Let's go.
00:39:16Let's go.
00:39:38Let's go.
00:39:44Let's go.
00:39:47Do you understand our music?
00:39:51Have you ever seen our paintings of women...
00:39:55...walking among fruit trees?
00:39:59Where the fruit trees looked like women...
00:40:02...and the women...
00:40:04...look like fruit trees?
00:40:07There has never been a people...
00:40:09...more purely artist...
00:40:12...and therefore...
00:40:14...more purely lover.
00:40:17And the Chinese.
00:40:21I think we ought to end this discussion.
00:40:23Certainly.
00:40:24If you find it objectionable.
00:40:27But I wish you didn't.
00:40:29If you should change your mind.
00:40:32If you would follow our costume...
00:40:34...of accepting third invitation.
00:40:37We are having dinner at eight.
00:40:58If you want to do it...
00:40:59...you want to do it?
00:41:16...the last night...
00:42:39Yes?
00:42:53I will give you more suitable gifts later.
00:42:57Why?
00:42:59That was Captain Lee.
00:43:02Oh, that's all right, Marley.
00:43:04You don't have to bribe me.
00:43:06Then you won't tell the general?
00:43:08It's nothing to me.
00:43:11If you want to do something for me, help me get out of here.
00:43:16Escape?
00:43:17Isn't there some way you could persuade him to send me back to my friends?
00:43:20He would only think I was jealous.
00:43:22But it would be easy for you to do it yourself, after dinner.
00:43:28Please come.
00:43:29You could help me so much with Mr. Jones.
00:43:33Jones?
00:43:35An American?
00:43:36Yes, the general's financial advisor.
00:43:40What kind of a man is he?
00:43:42Oh, he's very smart.
00:43:44I'm afraid of him.
00:43:46Could I meet him?
00:43:48Yes, if you come down to dinner.
00:43:55This dress of mine looks terrible.
00:43:57Oh, I can arrange that.
00:44:00I can't wait.
00:44:11I can't wait to see him.
00:44:24Saai-san, Jingving.
00:44:26Oh, I can't wait.
00:44:28Isao, what's going on?
00:44:34You like this one?
00:44:39I like that one.
00:44:41Go again.
00:44:48Say hi, Choi.
00:45:00I have noticed you were in need of powder and paint.
00:45:06Yes, perhaps I am.
00:45:08I will see you at dinner.
00:45:32I will see you at the end.
00:45:35I will see you at the end.
00:45:50I will see you at the end.
00:46:20Oh, Miss Davies.
00:46:21I'm so glad you changed your mind.
00:46:23This is Mr. Jones, my financial advisor.
00:46:26Hello.
00:46:27How's the missionary racket?
00:46:28And this is Captain Lee, my aide.
00:46:31Oh, my.
00:46:32Please.
00:46:34You're a newcomer in China, I take it?
00:46:37Yes, I landed four days ago.
00:46:38Oh, you're learning an awful lot about China in four days.
00:46:42I certainly am.
00:46:46No champagne?
00:46:48That's poor Roger, 1906.
00:46:50I wonder if I could have a glass of water.
00:46:52Water?
00:46:53Sweet.
00:46:53You catch a death of typhoon.
00:46:56Your health, Miss Davies.
00:46:58And the same to you, Mrs. Yen.
00:47:04Oh, that chair is for my wife, who does not exist as yet.
00:47:10You see, Ma Lee isn't his wife.
00:47:12She isn't even allowed to sit on the same level with us.
00:47:15She may seem kind of lonely tonight, but I've seen her with plenty of company.
00:47:35I was greatly relieved tonight when I heard there was another American in this strange place.
00:47:40Well, thank you for the compliment, but I guess I'm what's known in the dime novels as a renegade and
00:47:45a darn good one at that.
00:47:47I don't think I'd be much of a relief to anybody.
00:47:51What's that?
00:47:52Oh, I was just trying to find out the duties of a financial advisor.
00:47:58He's the secretary on my treasury.
00:48:00Yeah, I'm the big squeeze.
00:48:02And if I do say it myself, I can milk more money out of this province than any man alive.
00:48:08Do you advise the general on other matters, too?
00:48:11Sure, I do.
00:48:12But he never takes it.
00:48:14Except when it comes to money, then he's all ears.
00:48:18Aren't you, General?
00:48:19Well, what's to say in your country? Money talks.
00:48:24Money talks in any country.
00:48:25Wait till you hear how that boxcar full of money I've got out there is going to talk.
00:48:30Six million dollars mix can make a lot of noise in any language.
00:48:36I thought you asked me not to mention that, Chokes.
00:48:39We're all friends here.
00:48:41Besides, Molly knows anyway.
00:48:48I didn't tell her.
00:48:51You're not the only man around this ranch who tells her things.
00:49:12We play Davis' choice, Mrs. Davis.
00:49:15Stud, jackpots, spit in the ocean, rudels, anything you like.
00:49:18I'm sorry. I haven't had any money.
00:49:20Oh, I'll be glad to carry you.
00:49:21It's only a friendly little game.
00:49:23No, thanks. I think I'll watch.
00:49:26I'll watch you, General.
00:49:28Pass.
00:49:29Two bucks.
00:49:34And ten dollars more.
00:49:35Uh-huh. Not me. I thought you said you passed.
00:49:39I'll raise you ten dollars.
00:49:42And ten dollars more.
00:49:49He loves to steal a pot.
00:49:52Don't pay any attention to Jones.
00:49:54He has a bad liver.
00:49:55Oh, don't try to kid me, General.
00:49:58Don't I know you better than you do yourself?
00:50:01Him and me, thick as thieves.
00:50:05Don't you tell me everything you know?
00:50:08Do I?
00:50:08And if you don't, don't I know how to find it out anyway?
00:50:13I don't know. Do you?
00:50:15Sure I do.
00:50:17All I have to do is give fifty dollars to the General's bodyguard.
00:50:21You give too much.
00:50:22Oh, sometimes I give more than that.
00:50:24Yes, sir.
00:50:26Five hundred dollars makes to Captain Lee, and you can get the lowdown on whatever happens around here.
00:50:35How many cars, please?
00:50:37Two.
00:50:39And how does Captain Lee know?
00:50:44You better ask Captain Lee about that.
00:50:47I'll take him.
00:51:01Yes, sir.
00:51:09Yes, sir.
00:51:11Did you know it?
00:51:14Yes, sir.
00:51:16Yes, sir.

00:56:29but I know what I'm talking about
00:56:31Molly's not your kind
00:56:32she's just a conniving little dame
00:56:35who deserves every bit that's coming to her
00:56:36including murder I suppose
00:56:38now you let the general be the judge of that
00:56:40he runs his own show out here
00:56:41with about 50 centuries of authority back of him
00:56:44you missionaries come out here and expect to convert 500 million people overnight
00:56:48why changing a leopard spots is duck soup compared to changing China
00:56:52you know you're lucky to be alive out here yourself
00:56:54now you go back to your room go to bed and behave
00:56:56not until I've seen the general
00:56:58I'd like to see the general
00:56:59please miss Davis have a little common sense
00:57:02you've no right to go to his room in that get up
00:57:04besides I know the general is a nice fellow
00:57:07he's well educated has lovely manners
00:57:09but don't forget he's a Chinaman
00:57:11if you're through Mr. Jones I'll do as I please
00:57:16all right young lady
00:57:19there's no skin off my nose
00:57:30well Miss Davis
00:57:33what have I done to deserve the honor of your visit at this hour
00:57:38you've ordered the murder of Marley
00:57:41well couldn't we speak of something more pleasant
00:57:46here I have some excellent brandy
00:57:50it's supposed to be over a thousand years old
00:57:53you'd like to try it
00:57:54you're murdering her just to satisfy a cruel jealous revenge
00:58:02may I?
00:58:11have you?
00:58:12Marley has been betraying military seekers to my enemies
00:58:14can't you silence her in some other way?
00:58:19yes
00:58:21in the old days
00:58:23in the days of the men's shoes
00:58:26I could have had her tongue cut out.
00:58:29But now, since you missionaries, I started to read and write.
00:58:32She's a constant menace, as long as she's alive.
00:58:39I feel sorry for you, General Yen.
00:58:42A powerful man like you, afraid of a poor little slave.
00:58:46The only way to get loyalty is to compel it.
00:58:50Take Captain Lee, for example.
00:58:53He's the only son of a very powerful family...
00:58:55...which claims to support my rule.
00:58:58All right, I believe them.
00:59:01But as evidence of their good faith...
00:59:04...I made them place him in my hands as a hostage.
00:59:08Now, if they would betray me...
00:59:11...the life of Captain Lee enables me to save my own face.
00:59:15That's the way we get loyalty in China.
00:59:18That's why China's 2,000 years behind the times.
00:59:20Don't you see that if Molly...
00:59:22Why are you so interested in Molly?
00:59:25I'm just as much interested in you.
00:59:31Oh, I'm deeply flattered.
00:59:33But not deeply moved.
00:59:35Can't you forgive her?
00:59:37She's only a child.
00:59:39You can always do so much more with mercy than you can with murder.
00:59:42Why don't you give her another chance?
00:59:44Oh, I know you feel that she has deceived you...
00:59:47...and sold information to your enemies...
00:59:48...perhaps even been unfaithful to you.
00:59:50All that's dreadful.
00:59:51And if it's true, you have a certain justification...
00:59:53...in wanting to crush her.
00:59:54But I want you to think of all those things...
00:59:56...and then forgive her.
00:59:58I don't know how you feel about Molly.
01:00:00I mean, whether you love her as...
01:00:02...well, as a lover...
01:00:04...but that's of no importance.
01:00:05I want you to see the beauty of giving love...
01:00:08...where it isn't merited.
01:00:09Any man can give love where he sure has returned.
01:00:11That isn't love at all.
01:00:12But to give love with no thought of merit...
01:00:14...no thought of return...
01:00:15...no thought of gratitude even...
01:00:17...that's ordinarily the privilege of God.
01:00:19And now it's your privilege.
01:00:21Oh, General, with all you have within you...
01:00:23...your superior brain, your culture...
01:00:26...how can you be so blind to spiritual greatness?
01:00:29Do this thing, I ask you.
01:00:31Do it for me.
01:00:33Do it even blindly if you must...
01:00:35...and I promise you.
01:00:36I'm so sure of it.
01:00:37I promise you that for the first time in your life...
01:00:40...you'll know what real happiness is.
01:00:42You'll know that I...
01:00:54I have one of my own.
01:01:00That's what you said to me that day.
01:01:04You must be sincere, Miss Davies.
01:01:07I don't believe a word you say.
01:01:09But when you ask me like that...
01:01:11...I forget I am General Yen.
01:01:14Then you won't have her killed?
01:01:15But I ask myself.
01:01:18What do you get out of it?
01:01:20You have hardly known her more than few days...
01:01:22...and still you act...
01:01:24...as if she were of your own flesh and blood.
01:01:26She is.
01:01:27We're all of one flesh and blood.
01:01:31Really?
01:01:37Do you mean that?
01:01:46Of course I do.
01:01:50Words.
01:01:53Nothing but words.
01:01:55Nothing but words.
01:01:56You came in here to preach.
01:01:58Not my words.
01:02:00The one who first spoke them...
01:02:02...gave up his life for them.
01:02:10What are you willing to give up for them?
01:02:13What do you mean?
01:02:13Surely your pleasure wouldn't be complete...
01:02:16...without some sacrifice on your part.
01:02:19Sacrifice?
01:02:19Yes.
01:02:20You are so interested to save the life of Marie.
01:02:24Are you willing to be a hostage...
01:02:25...for her future loyalty?
01:02:27Like Captain Lee?
01:02:31I expect nothing from you.
01:02:33Nothing but words and phrases...
01:02:35...you learn in Sunday school.
01:02:38You don't believe in them any more than I do.
01:02:41You were wrong when you said I resent missionaries.
01:02:47I despise them.
01:02:49Shall build another great wall to keep your kind out.
01:02:52You've already got a great wall around you.
01:02:53That isn't built of mud and stones.
01:02:56It's made of ridiculous pride and inhuman cruelty.
01:02:59You only allow one single human feeling to reach you.
01:03:02You want me to be hostage for Molly?
01:03:04All right, I'm not afraid of you.
01:03:06I'll answer for her loyalty.
01:03:28I want to spare your life.
01:03:35Are you off your knock?
01:03:36Get up!
01:03:39I'm going to place you in her hands.
01:03:42She agrees to answer for your future loyalty.
01:03:45But you know, and I know, the moment my back is turned,
01:03:49you are going to throw a knife into it.
01:03:52Miss Davis, I swear I never betray your trust.
01:03:56I swear by my father's head and by the bones of my ancestors.
01:03:59And by the holy book in the mission school.
01:04:04I believe you, Molly.
01:04:06What are you up to now?
01:04:09I am going to convert a missionary.
01:04:25Here's your slipper, Molly.
01:04:27You're so kind.
01:04:29I want you to promise not to see Captain Lee again as long as we remain here.
01:04:33Anything you say, Miss Davis.
01:04:35Will you take me to the temple today?
01:04:38What again?
01:04:39I want to have prayer of forgiveness read.
01:04:42See?
01:04:43I've written it while waiting for you.
01:04:46I'm so proud of you, Molly.
01:04:48I knew you were a good girl.
01:04:50Certainly I'll take you to the temple.
01:04:51Come on.
01:04:53Here.
01:04:58I love you.
01:05:03I love you, dear.
01:05:05I love you.
01:05:07I love you.
01:05:09I love you.
01:05:16You're a good girl.
01:05:20I love you.
01:05:21I love you.
01:05:22It's good.
01:05:28This is what we're going to do.
01:05:30What's your name?
01:05:34This is what we're going to do.
01:05:36We're going to go.
01:06:13May I win?
01:06:15Did you?
01:06:18I couldn't sleep.
01:06:20I had to get this money train out of here.
01:06:22I got a hunch, and I always follow my hunches.
01:06:25Between war and women, the General's got me about nuts.
01:06:28Come on, open up there.
01:06:30I want you to take train away from here.
01:06:31Bayside Station, savvy. Money no safe here.
01:06:34Money no safe here now.
01:06:35Yes, sir.
01:06:35Hide train, other place. Chop, chop.
01:06:38Tonight?
01:06:39What's that?
01:06:53There's no train due here now.
01:06:55It's funny.
01:07:04Go see, Bonner.
01:07:16Hello, people.
01:07:36Good start.
01:07:44Give us the charge.
01:07:46Move there.
01:07:46Move there.
01:07:49Go David.
01:07:51No, you should go.
01:07:53Watch out! Watch out!
01:08:22Watch out!
01:08:23Watch out!
01:08:26Watch out!
01:08:29Watch out!
01:08:30Watch out!
01:08:50And I say, ever since this American girl came here, you've been off your nut.
01:08:52You wouldn't get rid of Morley when I told you to.
01:08:54Well, now try and find her.
01:08:56Here, take a look at this if you want to see something.
01:08:58There it is, the whole works. Position of the money car right down to what you had for breakfast.
01:09:03Where do you get this?
01:09:04Where do I get everything else around this dump? I paid a lot of money for it.
01:09:09You wanted to see me, General?
01:09:11Yes.
01:09:13Come in, please.
01:09:14Must have been important to have me dragged down like this.
01:09:16I'll say it's important. Where's Morley?
01:09:18Isn't she in her room?
01:09:19No, she isn't in her room and she isn't anywhere else.
01:09:20What?
01:09:21You'll never see her again around this ranch. Thanks to you, she's skipped out.
01:09:24I don't believe it.
01:09:24You'll believe it when we all pay for it with our necks.
01:09:27Did you ever see this before, Miss Davis?
01:09:30Why, yes.
01:09:30That looks like the prayer Morley had read at the temple.
01:09:32Prayer?
01:09:33Prayer, my eye.
01:09:34That thing read in the temple?
01:09:36Well, there's enough dynamite in that to blow General Yen's province into the Yellow Sea.
01:09:39There you are.
01:09:40Tie that.
01:09:41I told you you were crazy to listen to these screwy missionaries.
01:09:43That there be enough?
01:09:46Everything is going to be all right.
01:09:47All right?
01:09:48Do you realize that your money's all gone?
01:09:49Money that I've ground out of this province by the sweat of my brow?
01:09:53Now, the General and I and Captain Lee were the only ones that had that information.
01:09:57Now, how did Morley get it?
01:10:01I'm to blame, General.
01:10:03That paper must have been in the shoe that I carried from Captain Lee to Morley.
01:10:07Oh, perfect.
01:10:09There you are.
01:10:10How long do you suppose your troops will remain loyal now?
01:10:12With all that dough, Fang will buy them out right under your very nose.
01:10:15You can say goodbye to this little empire of yours in about two days' time.
01:10:19That will be all, Miss Davis.
01:10:22You will remain in your room until you hear from me.
01:10:32That's a pretty fancy price to pay for what you're counting on.
01:10:35Oh, calm yourself.
01:10:38The conquest of a province or the conquest of a woman.
01:10:42What's the difference?
01:10:44Oh, yeah.
01:10:45That's one thing we should be grateful for.
01:10:47You watch that.
01:10:48We've finally got some skin over your nose.
01:10:51Come in.
01:11:07Well, Miss Davis, you certainly gummed up the prettiest set-up I ever saw.
01:11:14I had visions of making General Yen the biggest thing in China.
01:11:17But you sure queered that beautifully.
01:11:21I hate your insides, Miss Davis.
01:11:24But you're an American.
01:11:26We've got to stick together now.
01:11:28Where's the General?
01:11:29Well, the General's all washed up.
01:11:32His army's deserting him as if he had the leprosy.
01:11:36Darned if I'm not even out of cigars, too.
01:11:39Yes, sir.
01:11:40He could have been the biggest thing in China.
01:11:43One thing you've got to say for him, he sure can take it on the chin.
01:11:48Darned if I don't believe he isn't glad this thing happened to him.
01:11:53Oh, come on now, don't you get to worrying.
01:11:56I'll get you out of this somehow.
01:11:58I've been in tougher spots than this before now.
01:12:02You go on, get your things together.
01:12:04Wait here till I come back for you.
01:12:07Here, here, what's this?
01:12:17You tell the General she's busy now and can't see him.
01:12:20Hold on.
01:12:26Here, wait a minute.
01:12:27You don't have to see him.
01:12:28Here, wait a minute.
01:12:30Now, I'm warning you.
01:12:51Your sportsmanship is magnificent.
01:12:55Won't you sit down?
01:12:57Please.
01:13:02You're just in time to help me select my portrait.
01:13:10Did you ever see a book like this?
01:13:12It's a painter's catalog.
01:13:14The idea is to select the features that most resembles one.
01:13:19For example, the ear, number three.
01:13:23The nose, number six.
01:13:26And the chin, number 27.
01:13:29Equal, General Yen.
01:13:33How do you like this nose?
01:13:35Do you think it resembles mine?
01:13:44Perhaps you wonder why I don't sit for the picture myself.
01:13:48You see, a Chinese is never a painter until he has joined his ancestors.
01:14:15May I offer you some champagne?
01:14:19May I?
01:14:26In the days of our greatest civilization, we drank to excess.
01:14:30Yes.
01:14:31In fact, uh, one of my ancestors, a very famous poet, was drowned in an attempt to catch the moon
01:14:37in the yellow river.
01:14:45Oh.
01:14:47This portrait, uh, is of his wife, who was made very unhappy by his death.
01:14:52She left a very famous collection of swords.
01:14:55I have them in my bedroom, though.
01:14:57May I show them to you?
01:14:58Oh, please.
01:14:58Why do you torture me?
01:15:22I am afraid you misunderstood my purpose in sending for you.
01:15:25I am not altogether a fool.
01:15:31You didn't think I meant the conventional thing, did you?
01:15:34Didn't you?
01:15:36Do you think that General Yen could accept anything that the heart did not freely give?
01:15:44Oh, no.
01:15:46That opportunity has been opened to me ever since you came here.
01:15:55It was your life you put up as a forfeit for my least loyalty.
01:16:03My life?
01:16:04Yes.
01:16:05What else did you think it meant?
01:16:12Oh, I see.
01:16:14You are afraid of death as you are afraid of life.
01:16:25You want me to send you back to you, Dr. Stike?
01:16:28He speaks the same meaningless words as you do.
01:16:32He has everything you want.
01:16:36You would like to be able to boast to him that the great General Yen, whom everybody feared, was destroyed
01:16:43because he was fool enough to hope.
01:16:46Well, why don't you go?
01:16:49Go on to him.
01:16:53You've taught me a terrible lesson.
01:16:56Yes.
01:16:57For to be able to do good works, one has to have wisdom.
01:17:02You depended too much on your beauty.
01:17:11And also of the fact that you are so young.
01:17:17Young and pale as a lotus blossom, which blooms at night.
01:17:23Oh, torture.
01:17:25Real torture is to be despised of someone you love.
01:17:30Bargain or no bargain.
01:17:32Province or no province.
01:17:34Do you know what I expected to do tonight?
01:17:37I was coming to your room to kill you.
01:17:41And then follow you to some celestial garden.
01:17:44Where there is no General Yen.
01:17:46And no Megan Davis.
01:17:48Just you and I.
01:17:54...
01:18:00...
01:18:15I mean...
01:18:47Jenner! Jenner! Jenner!
01:19:28Jenner!
01:19:30Jenner!
01:19:40Jenner!
01:19:41Jenner!
01:19:42Jenner!
01:19:43Jenner!
01:19:52Jenner!
01:19:52Jenner!
01:19:52Jenner!
01:19:52Jenner!
01:19:54Jenner!
01:19:54Jenner!
01:22:47I... I had to come back.
01:22:50I couldn't leave.
01:22:53I... I'll never leave you.
01:23:17I... I'll never leave you.
01:23:21I'll never leave you.
01:23:51Come on.
01:24:25Come on.
01:24:53Come on.
01:25:08We ought to be in Shanghai in an hour.
01:25:12I bet you a week in China seems like a lifetime.
01:25:16Well, maybe it is, is that...
01:25:19You know, Yen once told me...
01:25:22Yen's dead, ain't he?
01:25:25Great guy.
01:25:27I don't think you'll marry Strike.
01:25:30I got a hunch you're going back to America.
01:25:35Yen once told me you could crowd a lifetime into an hour.
01:25:40Yeah, into a drink.
01:25:48Great guy.
01:25:50Great gambler.
01:25:53Told me he couldn't lose.
01:25:56The joke was certainly on him.
01:25:59He lost his province, his army, his life.
01:26:05Maybe not.
01:26:08Maybe the joke's on us.
01:26:12Well, maybe you will marry Strike at that.
01:26:16Yen was crazy.
01:26:18He said we never really die.
01:26:21We only change.
01:26:24He was nuts about cherry trees.
01:26:28Well, maybe he's a cherry tree now.
01:26:32Maybe he's the wind that's pushing that sail.
01:26:38Maybe he's the wind that's playing around your hair.
01:26:44Oh, it's all a lot of hooey.
01:26:47I'm drunk.
01:26:49Just the same.
01:26:51I hope when I cool off, the guy that changes me sends me where Yen is.
01:26:57And I'll bet I'll find you there, too.
01:27:13I don't know if you like herself...
01:27:15drinking all night.
01:27:17I think he's already gone.
01:27:18This is us thinking as a mother of fik all hollers...
01:27:18A house to knife with a stone?
01:27:20Okay, I'll get Who will care about yourself,
01:27:21Let's go first.
01:27:21Last time you wait for a different situation.
