Well, Baltimore, a pleasant enough little town, as long as you keep out of
rough quarters.
Fifty dollars be enough?
More than sufficient, I should think, thank you. Just sign here.
You can pay me back later.
Don't you trust me?
Matter of bookkeeping.
Don't, don't enter into it.
You produce everything with pounds, shillings and pence.
The whole point of your voyage was pounds, shillings and pence.
Yes, that was one purpose.
To wind up my husband's estate, sever finally with the past.
Then I shall be free.
No commitment.
And no direction.
Although I never allow myself to be blown about by the wind of time.
So what are you thinking?
Seinfeld.
To the future.
Oh, whose future? Yours or mine?
Perhaps both.
Oh, excuse me, sir. Ah, call in, Baines.
This is, uh, Mr.
Dragons. Ah. Excuse me. Oh, business first.
I've been expecting you, sir.
Eden. Until later, James.
Uh, yes, yes, yes, sir. Mr. Dragons.
Thank you. The man was wondering about a sub, sir. Every man of us ready to go
ashore spruced up in Jim Dandy. But unless there's a dollar to jingle, the
crimps are going to tie some away with promises of oars and brandy. I mean,
sight knows a man, and that's the last we'll see of him. Yes.
Well, they'll wake up aboard a down -easter Frisco band. I know, I know.
Right then.
Hard solid ahead, not a cent more.
I do.
Drink, Mr. Dragan.
Thank you.
We had intelligence of your arrival by Atlantic telegraph.
Yes, what sort of cargo have you got for me?
Punctual, very punctual. You made good time.
It's a fast ship.
Baines is a driver.
Glad to hear it.
Tractor of the year to you, Captain.
Open as a book. Right, what have you got for me?
Bullion and mail.
Steam packet, as usual, but, as usual, the compounded contraptions bust the
guts. You've got 15 days to deliver. Can you meet that obligation, sir?
Yes, since mail was carried by Sam.
No steamers available?
Oh, it can either have to be under contract, but they've been withdrawn by
Admiralty.
Seems your government's a style uneasy about the Suez Canal.
A choice bad plum to fall your way, not likely to fall again.
Baltimore to Liverpool.
Well, with the following wind, I reckon we'll do it in 12 days.
You'll need a strong roof.
For the bullion.
Gold, Mr. Neaton.
A million dollars worth.
Oh, do cheer up, Leonora.
James isn't the only man in the world. No, but he's the only one I want.
It's your trouble.
No opposition. What are we to do with her?
A hopeless case.
Hopeless?
Are you so set upon marrying James? Yes, of course I am. Then we must take you
in hand.
It's now or never.
First, you must learn deployment and how to conduct yourself in the presence of
a gentleman.
You must attract men as the flame attracts moths to the... I don't want to
attract men. I want to attract Jane. Then you must put yourself in our hands.
All right. What do I do?
Well, first of all, this hat.
And that dress.
What's wrong with this dress?
Well, it does not fit your colouring, Leonora. And it's shapeless.
Who ever made this monstrosity?
Then you should send the creature to the hole. He looked like something from a
rummage sale.
Rummage sale?
What do you think, Sarah?
I think we should start again from the beginning.
A steering engine.
Aye. It operates by a system of hydraulics.
No, it'll never work. You see, all the pressure is applied here at the fulcrum.
Oh, it does work, Mr Fraser.
It's been operating aboard the Anor Needin since the day she was fitted out.
It's her son's invention.
Ah.
Well, Albert always was ahead of his time.
Oh, no, you don't follow.
Look, if a device like this were made available to the shipping industry as a
whole, it would be worth a fortune.
You build ships, Mr Fraser.
You know full well that the weak point of all steamships is the theories of
and chains connecting the wheel to the auxiliary steering engine.
It's exposed to weather.
It only requires one link to snap and the whole ship is helpless.
Now, Albert has resolved this problem by replacing these rods and chains with
hydraulic fluid running in copper pipes below deck and sheltered from the
weather.
It's never required attention since the day it was installed.
Interesting.
But I need him on that ship.
Aye. But Albert owns the patent.
Of course he does.
But I fail to see what benefit this is to me.
All to you, Captain Fogarty.
Those patent rights will lapse next month, unless an extension is applied
Albert's in Argentina, James Orneed in America.
That just leaves you.
And me, Mr. Fitz.
You must swell out more at the top and less at the waist.
More? More.
More? Yes.
That's better.
I can't breathe.
Well, the measure of success is when you're afraid to breathe.
Try walking across the room.
Head up.
Shoulders back.
I think we can make something of her.
Well, she does have certain attributes. Yes, but that hair.
Here, sit down here.
On the chair, take it easy.
Now, Sarah, loosen these curls.
Oh, no, leave me alone.
What does it matter?
James is far away in America anyway. Well, that's true.
Well, she must have someone to practice on first. But who?
Oh, there must be someone.
What for?
To escort you. To parties, theatre.
To set tongues wagging. He must be somebody single, unattached and
Oh.
Cousin Richard?
Cousin Richard?
Cousin Richard?
Bullion safely stowed?
I'm a two -armed watchman, standing guard.
I'll be happy until we've got deep water under the keel, though.
A million dollars' worth of the devil's currency would tempt an anchorite off
his perch.
My anchorites are still ashore, wetting their whistles.
I trust you'll be ready to sail with the tide?
Aye, first light.
Good.
Would it inconvenience you to take another passenger?
Who?
Myself. I have urgent business commitments in London.
Your money's as good as the next month's, I suppose.
That's settled.
To a successful and profitable voyage. I just hope so.
It'll take more than hope to get that crew aboard, sir. You've lost them.
Five dollars wasn't enough. They've been shanghaied.
You changed up a little.
I remember you as the queen, young fella.
Hosting the barracuda, am I right?
You've got a sharp memory, old man.
Never forget her face.
Or her debt.
And now you're in the patty to be offered the mail for the queen of
Still well informed, eh?
Still made quite a front.
Now, let's get down to business then, eh?
How much?
I can get you a prime crew.
Saltwater men to the teeth. Every man check eager and willing to sail aboard
undead ship.
But I want my crew back. Randon, one day's pay for a man in a township. It's
possible, Mr. Randon.
Your whole crews took a notion to wail.
You can't tell me.
Business is business, Mr. Randon.
And the source we are in a workplace.
In dire need, sir, dire need.
But I'm sure we can arrive at a satisfactory arrangement.
Pretty good men, then.
That's me out of pocket.
Five dollars a hit.
You always did drive a hard bargain, as I remember.
Will you take a little, uh, refreshment while we discuss the day?
I'm myself aboard a Yankee bloodhound.
Halfway round the horn.
I don't want any beachcombers to set such hopes.
Can you do it for me, old man?
Did you find our crew?
Good by, Lordy. Please come in.
to conduct you below, Mrs. Martin.
Thank you.
Don't go sober.
I want the ship on the way within the hour.
Right, sir.
Now, Hogan, let's see how you can make a jump.
Come on, you lazy, drunken load of misbegotten scum.
Put some people into it.
Run. Run, let's see you jump to it.
Come,
sir. Thank you, Captain Webster. I have quite sufficient.
Fine little girl of yours.
That's pretty enough.
as ever I did see.
Some lucky young fellow be hoisting his colours and clearing for action before
she's my daughter.
My daughter is already bespoke.
I've given the matter long and careful consideration and come to the conclusion
it is high time she was married to someone of mature judgment and stable
character, an opinion reinforced by her quite marvelous behaviour these last few
days. That breath, quite immodest.
Aye, to be cast up in a lee shore with all that talk I've got.
You want to get a wedding and bedding.
That always takes a start out of the stage. You have a quite disgusting turn
praise, Captain Webster, which I tolerate only in consideration of your
years. Oh, you sanctimonious, preaching, preaching clue of backsliders, don't
he? In any case, whatever I say, she will have her way and marry the man.
Well, he'll not waste her on that promising flop.
Of course not. I'm talking about Mr. O 'Neill. What?
Throw her away on that passable, you son of a... It so happens that Mr. O 'Neill
is Leonora's choice. I shall discuss terms with him on his return.
That
young
man's eyes were a goggle. Where's this Tyrell Richard? He's hiding. Come, I'll
introduce you.
Cousin Richard.
Oh, Elizabeth.
Allow me to introduce you to Miss Leonora Biddle.
Leonora, Richard O 'Needon.
How do you do?
Pleasure.
Leonora has long had a desire to make your acquaintance, Richard.
You ask a great deal for what is rightfully mine, Captain Fogarty. Your
Mr. Fraser. The patent is Albert's. It belongs to Fraser. Not in law.
If James O 'Neill returns within the month, he'll snap it up from under your
very nose.
Well, I suppose I owe you some recompense for your information.
But a thousand pounds is a great deal of money.
A drop in the ocean compared to the value of those patent rights.
As you yourself can make no possible claim, what's to stop me from simply
renewing the option on my son's behalf, letting you whistle for your reward?
Sense of moral obligation.
I believe you to be a hard man, Mr. Fraser.
What would you say?
Acceptance of your compliment is liable to cost me dear.
You must have some reason for fixing upon such a figure.
There's more than common greed behind it.
It will enable me to make a new beginning.
ยฃ1 ,000 is capital I can make a fresh start abroad.
Oh.
Australia, I thought.
So, I am to capitalise the venture, am I?
Very well, Captain Fogarty.
I dare say it's worthwhile, if only to keep it out of all need in France.
What will you require?
Your authorisation.
And on the 15th of the month, I shall be outside the door of those patent
offices waiting for them to open.
ยฃ1 ,000.
I'll deliver it.
Agreed.
Can it be a thought?
Hmm?
Oh, they're worth a deal more than that.
What are?
Patent rights.
What patent?
Well, I'm not rightly sure, but they're worth a great deal of money to someone.
Oh, Robert, all you ever think of these days is money.
Do you go to many parties, Mr. O 'Neill?
I'm sure you must be in great demand.
I'm, uh, I'm afraid I'm not one for the social graces, really.
Mr. Spittoff? No, I think you're being too modest.
I'm sure you dance like a dream.
Oh, I... Pardon me.
Miss Biddles, will you do me the honour?
Thank you.
Oh, handsome story.
I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I don't have much ear for music. No, well, I think it
would be best if we continued our conversation in the choir.
I'm away with you, Elizabeth.
Oh, no, Daniel, don't start that again.
Albert will never come back, you know that.
We could go away and start a new life together.
No, I've already told you.
Well, I couldn't earn enough money to take care of you all again.
Well, I have money now.
Oh. Soon you'll have it.
Talk a bit later.
There's nothing to talk about.
I'm afraid you must find my company rather boring, Miss Biddle.
Well, to be quite frank, yes, I do, Mr. O 'Neill.
It's always the same when I'm in the company of the fair effect.
I'm afraid I lose my wits completely.
Even with me?
The more beautiful the lady, the worse I become.
Oh, poor Richard.
Hey, you wouldn't think it, but I'm chairman of three companies and sit on
board of four others.
I'm not a silent member then.
No, indeed.
My fellow directors think twice before they cross me.
But to have such authority in business and to be in mortal terror of the weaker
sex.
Well, you see, I've had no social life.
What's that?
Whatever. No, no. My father believed in keeping my dose of the grindstone.
He died when I was 19, and the responsibility of the brewery fell on my
shoulders.
Well, I believe I've made a tolerably good job of it.
Indeed, in time, I launched several ventures of my own.
That sounds like a true Oneidan. Hmm?
Just like James.
Cousin James? Ah, now, there's a man after my own heart.
Sharp as a needle. A man of considerable attainment.
You know, I remember several years ago. I was only a child.
Yes, go on, tell me about it.
I must be boring you.
No, you're not boring me.
What do people think? Just the two of us sitting together? I think I'm
monopolizing you.
I don't mind being monopolized.
One more hour and we should be clear of the Chesapeake heading for the open sea.
You make navigation seem so easy.
It is.
We calculate by applying the principles of spherical trigonometry.
And it looks incredibly complicated.
That's all, Diane.
James, is she still uppermost in your mind?
No.
But it was right when he said the memory would fade.
You know, James, you really ought to consider marrying again.
Why? You require a son.
Is that the only reason?
Yes. I think it's your only reason.
I already have a daughter.
Poor child.
She's well cared for.
Passed from hand to hand like an unwanted parcel.
With a father who appears out of the night like some fairy story old girl.
You know affection for her?
Can't help it.
There it is.
Though the memory has not completely faded.
Poor James.
Yet you really must marry again.
I have thought of it.
And readily took no for an answer. And no doubt if I were to ask again would
receive the same reply.
Oh, so you want the reply before putting the question.
What are you afraid of, James? The second rebuff?
Or that I might say yes.
Do you partake of cream or lemon, Robert?
Milk.
Do you take sugar?
You know perfectly well I take sugar.
Oh, really, Robert?
Hey, press China?
We expect visitors.
If you mean are we entertaining, no, we are not.
How could we possibly ask any guest to partake of hospitality with all this?
And you and your shirt, please.
A man has the right to spread himself from the privacy of his own home.
I'm busy.
Application and diligence are the true hallmark of genius, I always say.
Patent rights.
That's what they're... Patent rights.
It'll be here somewhere.
What patents, dear?
Patents worth a great deal of money.
Something to do with a ship.
Our ship.
Oh, they're sharp, those two. Very sharp.
I do think, dear heart, that your perspicacity and acumen in matters of
are far... an excess of that by the Mr. Fraser or Mr. Fogarty.
If only I knew what I was looking for.
The art of conversation forms one of the greatest charms of modern society and
is therefore deserving of... Oh, for heaven's sake, Sarah!
Hold your tongue.
Mr. Dragan, I see you suffer from the same bump of curiosity as myself.
I personally will never make sense of a chart.
Oh, well, that's quite simple, really.
Our noon position was 185 miles east of Cape Charles. We're travelling due east,
coast hold on a port tack at an average speed of approximately 12 knots.
Where did you acquire all this knowledge, Mr. Dragan? At sea. I was a
mariner before my leg was crushed in the fall.
Yes, well, I must leave you.
To your study, Mrs. Marsley.
Good afternoon.
Good afternoon, Mr. Dragan. What did he want?
Mr. Dragan was explaining our present position to me.
Got no right in the chart room?
No.
Thank you, Mr. Lord Leader.
What am I to do with you?
Knock us on the head.
Chuck us over the side.
That was our intention.
Only something happened to change that situation.
Drago was your navigator.
And now he's dead. We have a problem.
Now, one of you will navigate.
Now, the choice is yours.
All right, I'll do your navigation for you.
Bunny, any threat, insult or injury,
I'll run the ship in circles.
I can read a chart, I needn't.
All right, then.
I say that's our position.
Now you prove it otherwise.
Our rendezvous is 2436 North by 7120 West.
About 800 miles from there.
Our noon position.
Now you've got four days, I needn't.
Your hand.
Ships disappear, Captain.
And the crew's with them?
They've been promised $1 ,000 a man.
If they live to collect it, eh? You know, I've got a long fine of it.
Just fine.
Now, keep your eye on it.
I counted six mutineers.
The rest of the crew would have taken by surprise as we were.
Must be expecting a small island schooner.
Maybe off the Bahamas, eh?
Yeah, they don't want the ship.
It's the gold they're after.
So they'll sink the ship and us with it.
We've got four days.
And what of my son?
We'll take him with us.
To Australia?
We'll go as man and wife.
Who's to know?
I am to give up all this? An accumulation of debts. It's a grave
new life.
At the other side of the world?
It's a wealthy country.
Well, what will you do?
Raise sheep.
Sheep? Yes.
Australian wool and Australian mutton.
Fortunes will be made and are waiting to be made.
You'll never sold your hands, Elizabeth, that I promise you.
What if Albert should return?
He'll never return.
And do you think he's been leading the life of a monk?
You must give me time to think. No!
I need you, Elizabeth.
Oh, Daniel.
I must ask you, sir, to declare... Oh, thank you.
to declare your intentions towards my daughter.
Do you partake of sugar? One lump or two? I go two.
Well, son?
My intentions are by no means as unworthy as your suspicions.
Miss Leonora has just been kind enough to honour me without company.
There is gossip, son.
Gossip. Do try some seed cake. It's from a very old recipe and I would so
appreciate your opinion.
My daughter is utterly lacking in guile. She cannot be expected to comprehend
the wiles and stratagems of idle -tongued rumour mongers.
And the girl is never free of your company, damn it.
I assure you that your fears are ill -founded.
I tell you, sir, that there is gossip.
Seed cake.
Thank you.
Moreover, sir, you must be aware that it is my avowed intention that she should
marry your cousin James, Onetus. Yes, well, I am also aware that that is
Leonora's intention.
Honestly, I don't see myself in the role of rival.
Yes, but I forbid you to continue this association.
Ah, well, now, surely that must be a decision up to your daughter. She will
me.
Oh, well, now, if you're going to play the time... Now, don't you cross me,
young man!
Sauce for the goose, Mr. Bulldog, is also reputed to be sauce for the gander.
And what is that supposed to mean? I believe that you're in the process of
expanding one of your coal fields. You borrowed substantially.
I hold your paper.
So don't you cross me.
I'm ready, Richard, dear.
Oh, dear, no.
Um, well, thank you, Sarah, for your hospitality.
Mr. Priddles, it's been a pleasure. Good day to you, Mr.
O 'Neill.
Ah, be in order.
We'll arrive at your rendezvous during the first dog watch.
I'd satisfy you. You're up to something, O 'Neill.
Oh, I'll keep my word.
As long as you keep yours.
I don't trust you and I don't trust this.
You're crowded on sale and made fast passage wide.
Well, now, isn't that what you require?
Now, if we don't cite this sooner, I'll need you. You? All right.
Watson.
Time's running out.
It's all so open to you.
We should make our move now. No, no, no. That's just what they expect.
Now then, the wind hold.
Bone steady from the west. Round a broad reach, making about 30 knots.
Taking some camp as the sailor is close to the wind as he can.
On the main and foreshore.
Now, I reckon that schooner will arrive at the rendezvous early.
He'll be anxious not to miss us, you see.
He'll patrol this area.
I don't want to come upon him until an hour before sunset.
Why wait that long, sir?
You could have been killed out of six.
Only four mutineers left to worry about. I mean, we can tackle four.
They're armed.
We're not.
Oh, no.
We'll let Hogan shorten the odds for us.
It's past three o 'clock. You'll wear yourself out.
Oh, I don't know why you're going to so much trouble.
They're up to something.
Hey, I never knew a ship carried so many patents.
And why should that concern us?
Because there's money. A great deal of money, one of them said. In Albert's
absence, it's company money.
Albert?
Now, now, wait a minute. Oh, come on, can't it be? No, no, this rings a bell.
Hydraulic steering gear.
What is it?
Some sort of steering gadget.
Ah, and here's a note in Albert's workbook.
Patent applied for...
Granted, quintennial option of renewal on payment of five pounds.
Due on the 15th of September.
That's next week.
I shall confront Fraser.
That'll be your recognition signal, no doubt.
A strange flag would only arouse suspicion.
But who'd pay attention to an odd sail?
Very clever.
Ah, Mrs. Maudson.
We shall be sighting the school shortly.
Below.
They're sailing mighty close to the wind, Captain.
So are you, Hogan. So are you.
Grant us that we know our business, children.
The Hoban.
Come on, out you come! Quickly!
And you! Get a lock!
Send the sails!
Royals of Tick Island!
Come on, sail all the places there!
Sail all the places there!
Steal my ship, would you?
the time to hand you over to the authorities, nor the inclination to keep
board.
Well, your friends can pick you up.
You can't set us adrift.
They'll never find us in the dark.
Try holding up a bit of red canvas.
Captain Baines, Liverpool in 11 days.
Must you go?
I'm afraid so.
I train these for London within the hour.
I am sorry.
So am I.
But I am grateful to you for being as unresolved in your intentions as I have
been. Unresolved?
Else you would have asked me again, and more persuasively, and I might have said
yes.
And how wrong that would have been.
Oh, James, you know it as well as I.
That's why you didn't ask me.
We might have made a good partnership, you and I.
But a poor marriage.
One's dependent on the other.
Perhaps.
But you need a loving wife, one who'll devote herself to you and bear you sons.
I would chastise you at the breakfast table for ill -treatment of your semen.
And leave your clothes unmended to go off campaigning with Mr. Clemson.
Oh, on deck with that.
London, eh?
Well, I'll certainly keep you busy there, eh?
Indeed, I hope so.
Shames only.
To my shame, when I look at you now, the low opinion I held of you when we first
met, when you just saved my life.
I doubt if I shall ever meet a finer man.
And there will be times in the future when I shall punish myself for having
laughed away your offer of marriage.
But I was right, wasn't I?
Don't remain unresolved too long, Jay.
Leonora Biggles.
Snap her up before somebody else does.
Pretty made of me mind to do, Jessica.
Goodbye, then.
when you do propose to Leonore a bit of.
Make a better job of it than you did when you paid your addresses to me.
Hello?
Elizabeth?
What is all this?
Elizabeth's leaving.
Closing the house?
Aye.
Did you bring the money?
Why, the devil, should I bring it here?
Will you stop that damn hammering while I'm talking to you?
Robert came to see me.
He wants to apply for the patent rights on behalf of the company.
The only way to put his nose out of joint is to obtain Elizabeth's proxy.
Proxy? What proxy?
heard such a hullabaloo? What proxy?
Elizabeth, is this your luggage?
It is.
I am leaving for Australia with Mr. Fogarty.
You adulterous little bitch!
Guard your tongue, Fraser.
If I were a younger man, I'd thrash you within an inch of your life.
If you were a younger man, you wouldn't dare.
You disgust me, madam.
You not only betray your husband, you expect him to finance your damn paramour
into the bargain.
Not a penny piece, Damien, not a penny piece.
Albert's money?
A thousand pounds that scoundrel demanded to start a new life in
another man's wife, by God.
Albert's money? Whose pocket did you think it would come out of? Mine?
It would be an advance against my son's patent rights, that's all. Patent? What
patent?
It would seem you have not enlightened the lady, Mr. Fogarty. What patent?
Worth a fortune and future royalty payments.
Is this true?
It's a twisted version of the truth.
But we're not allowed to interfere with our plans, right? Our plans?
Your plans, you mean?
You not only entice me to betray my husband... You expect me to finance your
dumb sheep farming for the bargain? Nonsense. It was a straightforward
accommodation. Straightforward indeed.
You knew all along that patent money was mine.
Albert's. And only if the option was renewed.
Sell my house. Go to Australia. Raise sheep.
With my money, never.
Just how far has this affair progressed?
This far and no further.
Forget it.
You heard what Elizabeth said.
I suppose I must accept your word for what it's worth.
Sign here, Elizabeth.
And here.
That's for you, Mr. Fogarty.
And you still have a mind to emigrate?
I am.
Alone? Do I have any choice?
For heaven's sake, Elizabeth, always read before signing.
Take your Judith money and yourself to the devil.
Come along, Elizabeth.
We're going home.
Home? What else?
Disposed of this establishment, haven't we?
You can live with us until Albert returns.
Meanwhile, this skeleton will remain firmly locked in the closet.

That's why I'm here to talk to her.

And now I'm in love with him, Jane.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
