Please.

Thank you, sir.

Call me Ishmael.

Pitt.

Nice to meet you, Pitt.

Why did I take it into my head to go on a whaling voyage?

Something that was planned for me a long time ago, perhaps.

So where are you heading, mister?

Nantucket.

Why don't you do any Nantucket?

Going on a whaler.

Going to catch whales.

The overwhelming thought was for the great whale himself.

That's you, fellas.

Wide Atlantic.

There floated into my innermost soul endless processions of the whale.

One image haunted me most of all.

A grand, hooded phantom like a snow hill of the air.

Easy luck, boys.

Thanks.

You too.

Bye.

Dam you!

You shouldn't.

You shouldn't keep trying to do things.

That's all life is, is trying to do things.

I wish all whales at the bottom of the sea...

Well, that, my dear, is where they are most of the time.

The third from the left.

Oh.

Beale, on the sperm whale.

South Sea surgeon.

A reliable man.

Your mother says you are determined to become a whale man.

It's a hard life.

You have to make sacrifices.

There's no sausages.

Or eggs.

Or pudding.

No?

And only this.

Good evening.

Mr. Starbuck.

Perhaps I owe the... Excuse us.

How are you, Kent?

What's your news?

She's not ready.

We shall try.

Try, eh?

Do it.

Make her seaworthy.

Now.

In all good conscience.

So says the great Starbuck.

The authority and all that's right and proper.

I'm ready to go.

That's what I was afraid of.

Well, if you are afraid, then you know what you must do.

I'll have no man in my boat who's not afraid of a whale.

Ah, so now it's your boat, eh, Mr. Starbuck?

We both know whose boat it is, sir.

Well, do your damn job.

And get her in the water.

Now.

Yes, Kent.

Just do the best you can, all right?

Yes, sir.

So long.

Are you scared...

of Moby Dick?

He's just a whale.

He'll be asleep now.

Good night, my darling.

Good night.

He isn't just another whale, though, is he?

He went for you.

They don't do that.

It's not natural.

He's old.

He's angry.

He doesn't get enough attention from a female.

So we have something in common.

Why do you say that?

Because I knew it would make you come over here and look at me like that.

You don't want to.

You don't need to go.

We have enough.

I always have to go.

But this isn't just another voyage.

You have something in mind.

What the moment I have you in mind?

When do you see in an old man like me?

A fire that won't go out.

A steady hair.

So steady.

And eyes by which I steer my course.

Is that a choice?

Be your own man, Pip.

It

is by perversion of these to disobedience that the purity of his soul becomes sully.

The kingdom of God is within man.

There is its sacred and divine temper.

Greenland's finest gentlemen.

Whale oil you can serve at your table.

One hundred barrels of the finest spermacin.

Sweet as honey.

The last butter in April.

One hundred barrels.

I'd like to stop the bidding.

I'll bid twenty-five.

Do I see twenty-five?

Twenty-five.

Thirty.

Forty, Mr. Williamson.

Thirty.

You're looking for thirty-five.

Thirty-five.

Fifty.

Fifty units over there.

Can I see fifty-five?

I got fifty-five.

Thank you very much, sir.

Sold for fifty-five.

All righty then.

Oi, stop.

Stop.

Who are you sailing with?

Ahab.

Oh.

Reckon he'll have you?

I reckon he needs me.

Excuse me.

I'm looking for a ship.

A whaler?

Try the Mary Rose.

Thanks.

I'm looking for the Mary Rose.

Much love, old gee.

I thought we'd agreed to this, Mr. Starbuck.

She's not ready.

Double pin her.

Put her back in the water.

What is a week, Mr. Starbuck?

As first mate, it is your job to ensure the...what the captain wants.

Are you going to tell him he can't have it?

I've taught my heart to fear And brave, so

to speak, the world has to know the truth...

My fear's relief, how precious with that grace appear the eyes of the living.

And I'll cry, and I'll cry, and I'll cry, and I'll cry.

We haven't got all day.

Let's go.

Here, boys, the last ball.

You just give it your best shot, friend.

Come on now, boys!

Let's get up now!

Let's go now!

You stand there and you'll be jigging on your grave!

Move up the way!

You're in

trouble now, boys!

All through the ball!

He did!

Here you go, darling.

Line them up and get them in.

All right.

You'll find your ship.

I don't think I was quite good enough for him.

There's nothing going at the moment.

Not for me, anyway.

Where are you from?

Michigan.

Got any rooms?

I'll have to share.

That's fine.

Who with?

He's not here.

He's, uh, off around town selling his head.

Ha-ha!

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Get that lot over there, will ya?

Come on, lad.

You better be turning flukes.

Come on.

This'll be your first time, then?

Tryin' for a whale ship.

Oh.

Y-yes.

Good luck, son.

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Ca-yi.

Oh, do you see?

Ah-ah!

Help!

Help!

Ah, help!

Ah-ah!

Do ya still!

You!

What's the matter?

You never said I was sharing with a...

With a what?

A-a cannibal!

Oh, don't worry.

He's already eaten.

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Here, Quig-Quig.

You share with him.

All right?

I share.

You tell him, no smoking in bed.

I think he understood the first time.

And there's a new second mate.

Mr. Stubb.

He's not from the island?

Talked to a man from New Bedford.

Said he's good.

Lives for the kill.

Desperate to come out with you, Captain.

And Mr. Flask has returned to us with his man... Dagu.

Seems our last trip out whetted their appetite.

And you, Mr. Starbuck?

On a voyage home.

Last time.

After the whale took your leg.

You...

placed me...

under restraint.

You said things.

In your fever.

I can't forget them.

What things?

About the light whale.

About death.

Your own death.

Man in pain will say anything.

Extraordinary thing to do to your face.

Quick, quick.

Looking the way you do.

You ever get in...

trouble?

No.

No.

No.

Quick, quick.

No care trouble.

Pinbacks.

Bright whales.

Spam ascetics.

We take them all, gentlemen.

Sail with Captain Barr kills every whale he passers-to.

And that's a fact.

On board, lads.

Air pay and no questions asked.

Morning, Tom.

Hi.

You, uh... You full?

Afraid so.

If you're looking to make some money... try later when the Pequot sets up.

Word is Captain Ahab's still looking.

Pequot.

Pequot.

We'll do that.

Good luck.

Thanks.

Good evening, gentlemen.

Good evening.

We're here on behalf of the Pequot.

You of all people know the law, Mr. Bildad.

You can't come in here recruiting men under the influence.

Needs must when the devil drives, Mr. Coppin.

Quick, quick.

To our pool.

Ours is a Christian boat.

Uh...

He's a Presbyterian.

We don't hire cannibals.

I have no objection to any man's religion,

so long as that man pays me the same respect.

I'll show you.

Come on, hold on to me now.

Oh!

Sea whale!

Watch out!

Oh!

Ninety, it says, the prophet.

Eighty-fifth.

Eighty.

Seventy-eight and a half.

Seventy-eight.

Call it seventy-fifth.

We'll take your friend, too.

So, what kind of share do I get?

You get a seven hundred and seventy-seventh.

That's all?

Read your Bible, boy.

It does not pay to be generous.

This would be your first time in a whale ship?

Sir.

We're giving you an education.

Hey, you'll be fairly done by that.

You have my word.

All right, show me that.

Show me.

Guess we know who's the senior partner now.

We share.

Come.

May I say something?

That depends what it is.

If it is, when will I be rid of my brute, of a husband, then yes.

If it is, please do not go on this voyage, then no, you may not say anything.

Come to church with me.

If you must go to sea, then...

If there is a God, then I suspect I would anger him more...

by a pretense of worship than by choosing to ignore his existence.

Wrong ship.

They said I wanted her out tomorrow.

They're doing what they can, sir.

Why are you making excuses for him, Mr. Starbuck?

Tomorrow.

You heard the captain.

Captain?

We picked the right ship.

Why Duke?

America.

Good.

Yeah, we did.

Once away, my John.

I dreamed a dream the other night.

Lullaby, lullaby, lullaby.

I dreamed a dream a man was dead.

Lullaby.

My little land, my little land.

He's not with you, of course.

He?

Captain Ahab.

I sailed with him on his last voyage.

Ahab.

I was his oarsman.

I was on his whale boat.

They call me Elijah.

And perhaps you shall sail with him again.

Elijah.

never again.

He will die again.

Never.

If he goes to sea again, he will die.

And he knows it.

You'll see a hearse made of American wood floating on the sea.

And then he'll be strangled by hempen rope until he is quite dead.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Ask your husband.

He knows.

He knows all about it.

Beloved

shipmates, the last verse of the first chapter of the book of Jonah.

The Lord had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah.

Elizabeth.

Father.

Had prepared in waiting a great fish to swallow up Jonah.

There may be among you today those who think they are the captains of their fates

and the masters of their souls.

They are not.

They delude themselves.

Just as Jonah deluded himself.

The Lord God has decided the sea will take you.

Then it will swallow you just as surely as that whale swallowed Jonah.

Jonah is proud.

He will not accept help.

And he will suffer for it.

And do you know why?

Jonah has gone against God.

Jonah!

Jonah has cast himself out of the family of all those who walk in the Lord's way.

The sea will find out your pride just as it found out Jonah's.

You may go down to the sea imagining that you

will not have to surrender to its awful power.

But you will have to surrender.

The sea has a lesson to teach.

And the lesson is the lesson of He who made the waves and the billowing oceans

rolling still as they rolled 2,000 years ago.

Humility, shipmates.

Putting aside ourselves.

This is the only way to be part of the heavenly family.

Before you take the ship, friends, in whatever ship it

may be, make sure you take delight in the law of God.

May the peace of the Lord be with you.

Amen.

All he

needs is a good trip out and a ship full of oil to put him right.

That's what you believe.

But if it makes it easier to hear me say it...

Mr. Stubbs.

Mr. Stubbs.

See you tomorrow morning, okay?

You've gone and seen a fish.

Make him eat you now.

That's the idea?

Why?

Ah, teach him a lesson.

We'll eat you.

You're dead.

Too late for lesson.

Low the wind, south the wind South the wind, south the wind Low the wind,

south the wind Good evening to you all, gentlemen.

Hold your tongues!

I believe some of you have signed on the Pequod.

We sail tomorrow.

So please ship your things aboard.

Now, harpooners, step forward.

Tell me your name again.

Quig, Quig.

You're my choice.

Mr. Stubbs.

Um...

Name?

Dash Tego.

Tribe?

I'm the last of the Massachusetts, sir.

You'll do.

Mr. Flask.

Do we have any choice?

No choice.

My name is Pip.

I signed for cabin boy?

Did you indeed?

To kill whales.

Where are you from?

Alabama.

There are no slaves in Nantucket, sir.

You're welcome here.

And you, friend of Quig, Quig.

I didn't catch your name.

It's called Ishmael.

Ishmael.

Yes, sir.

What about you?

Do you have the look of a good oarsman?

Fresh water saver, Mr. Stubbs.

We're at the Great Lakes in the Erie Canal, sir.

You're welcome, too.

Thanks, sir.

Till tomorrow, gentlemen.

Crazy luck to the whalers.

Success to the sailors' wives.

Don't trouble yourself.

Prophecies for the weak-minded.

I make my own destiny.

Evans, Ehab will lead you to a watery dream.

That's it.

Morning, shipmates.

Morning, Captain.

Morning.

Fools!

You're all fools!

Matt, my lord.

I was there.

We'll get you next time.

Just know you're getting the folks.

I'm sorry, dear Jimmy.

We're on deck.

You think there's a whaling ship in a blue heavy.

You signed the affidavit?

Yeah.

Anything down there about your souls?

About what?

Or maybe you don't have one.

Well, no matter.

What will be will be.

It's the easiest thing in the world for a man

to look as if he's got a great secret in him.

It's a secret.

What are you swarming us against?

A soul is sort of a fifth wheel in a wagon.

We're going sailing now, Elijah.

We have no quarrel with you.

Go to church.

Make your peace.

Now, Mr. Starbuck, are we ready?

Yeah, we are.

Well, then, God bless you and have you in his holy keeping.

There she is, my boys!

The lone Atlantic!

Plunge like fate!

Away!

Mr. Starbuck!

Not there!

There's no ship!

Hey, yeah.

One, two, three.

Hey, yeah.

I thought you said you saw it.

Hey, yeah.

All off five degrees.

Kill those sails, gentlemen.

There we

go.

Do the same on the main.

Mr. Starbuck!

Oh, men at their station!

Oh, men at their station!

And Captain Ahab is... He'll show his face when it's time.

Clean up.

Ready about!

Ready about!

I don't want to see you with bitter ends on that deck!

Ishmael, clear the top counter.

I'll put it down.

Mr. Gray, you're in my eyes.

Clear Top Gallants!

Which one's the Top Gallant?

Follow me.

Right, you greenhorn bastards!

Your asses belong to me!

Now get to work!

Top Gallants, clear!

First, put the greenhorn on the watch.

Make fast!

Make fast!

Well executed, Mr. Stubb.

I want a greenhorn on the mast.

Easy does it.

Michigan.

Get to work.

Richard and Watson, we need an undec.

Jesus,

this is like a prison.

They say the first week's the worst.

I thought you sailed before.

You still killed?

I did.

And?

Great legs.

You ever heard of them, boy?

Who are you calling boy?

Well, this isn't prison.

This is freedom.

This is freedom, isn't it, Pip?

You haven't found your sea legs yet, huh?

Good night, boys.

Good night.

He's out there.

Somewhere.

You can smell him, can't you?

You got a name, boy?

Ishmael.

Ishmael.

Son of Abraham.

And that Egyptian woman.

And he will be a wild man.

And his hand will be against every man.

And every man's hand will be against him.

What's in a name?

It's been a while since I read my Bible, Captain.

There, there.

See?

Is it a whale?

Just listen.

The wailing.

It's a whale.

A piece.

What's in a name?

Lupin, Lupin.

Listen.

What's in a name?

Old man.

Turn to the captain.

You see this, boys?

Yes, I do.

It's a sixteen dollar piece.

It's a doubloon.

You see it?

Yes.

What do you do when you see a whale, boys?

Sing it out for him!

Good.

And what do you do next, men?

Lower the whale down for him!

And what tune do you pull to, men?

A dead whale or a stove boat!

A dead whale or a stove boat!

Right!

Now...

Give me a nail, Perth.

You and your hammer, please.

Now... The first man who raises me a whale...

will have this $16 piece.

This ounce of Spanish gold!

Vista Blue!

But not just any whale, lads.

No!

A very particular whale!

A white-headed whale!

A white-headed whale!

With a wrinkled brow...

And a crooked jaw... With three holes punctured in his starboard fluke...

Harpoons pressed into his back... Rusted corkscrews...

White...

White whale!

You know a boy?

I know!

Keep in.

We're hearing these.

Whale!

That's good.

What do they call him?

Say it!

Curse.

Afraid to say the name!

Afraid to say the name Lest we...

Summon him from the depths!

I didn't sign on to this.

F persecution...

Building walls around you!

Strike through the walls!

Say the name!

Say the name!

Moby Dick!

Moby Dick!

It is Moby Dick that you are hunting.

Say it!

Say the name again!

Say it!

Captain Ahab!

Was it not this fish, Moby Dick, that smashed your boat in two and took your leg?

Was it not Moby Dick that took your leg, Captain?

Who told you that, Mr. Starbuck?

I saw it with my own eyes, sir.

You did indeed, Mr. Starbuck.

Well, boys, I guess my secret's out.

What can you hide from your shipmates?

Nothing!

Starbuck, that was the way.

Aye, lads!

Moby Dick!

He's the one who dismasted me.

Brought me to the dead stump I walk on now.

Alas, poor Ahab!

It was that accursed whale that made a poor pagan lover of me forever and a day!

But will I lie down under it?

Will I take it?

I will not lie down under it.

I will not take it!

I came here to hunt whales, Captain, for vengeance.

Is vengeance not permitted these days?

Is vengeance not correct?

We hunt to live, do we not?

It will be a sad day indeed when we live to hunt.

Oh, you're not game, eh, Mr. Starbuck, is that it?

That ain't a little too much for you.

I am game for anything if it comes fairly in the way of business.

My vengeance will fetch a good price!

Vengeance on a dumb animal?

Sounds blasphemous to me.

Don't you talk to me, blasphemer!

I'd strike the sun if it insulted me!

And I will chase him across every sea that there is.

Will you chase him with me?

Across both sides of land and all sides of earth

until he spouts black blood and rolls over?

Will you do it?

Yes!

You'll do that for me, won't you?

Are you with me?

Yes!

Then let us drink to it!

Aye!

Quick, quick!

Aye, capi!

Every man must drink!

Aye.

Kokutoku kaifakako.

Aye, capi.

Everyone must drink!

Aye, drink!

Over here!

Me not the call for the white whale!

Moby Dick!

Moby Dick!

Moby Dick!

Moby Dick!

Moby Dick!

Moby Dick!

Moby Dick!

Moby Dick!

Moby... Boy!

He who is not with us is against us.

Right, Mr. Starbuck!

Newton needs a Is it not?

Drink up, lad.

Mr. Starbucks with us, boys!

Moby Dick, Moby Dick, Moby Dick... Moby Dick...

And in this case, they would sometimes coil.

I'm going to kill me lots of whales.

All you need is a harpoon and something to throw it at.

No.

You need permission.

You ask the sea to steer you.

You bless the blade you carry.

You strike with a strong hand and a good heart.

And you give thanks to the whale.

Is that before you chop it up and boil it down?

Captain wants to see you.

Yes, you.

You're getting promoted.

Some men aren't made for whaling.

Be careful.

A bad feeling on a ship can spread in the heart.

Aldo, be careful.

I'm first mate.

Mr. Stubb is second mate.

Mr. Flass, third mate.

That is all you need to know.

The captain likes men who can think for themselves.

Just don't think too much.

Your vest, Anton.

Welcome to the court of King Ahab.

Here I sit in state.

Next to me is Mr. Starbuck.

Below him is Mr. Stubb.

Little Mr. Flass down there.

Third mate last.

You see, boy?

Yes, sir.

Everything is done in an orderly fashion here.

Sir.

Dinner, Mr. Starbuck.

Dinner, Mr. Stubb!

Dinner, Mr. Flass!

Coming, Mr. Stubb!

The young man will be serving us.

I have heard he's a great believer in fairness.

But what do we believe in on this ship, Mr. Stubb?

Order, sir.

Order and merit.

Precisely.

Now, Flass is an officer.

He wishes he could fist a bit of pork as he did before the mast.

Now he's promoted to hunger.

There's the vanity of glory.

The insanity of life.

Order and merit.

Last in, first out.

You can clear the plates now.

Mr. Flass hasn't quite finished yet, sir.

No?

Clear, eh?

Mr. Starbuck, you may call the harpooner.

You're leaving Mr. Flass till last, eh?

Just clearing an order of precedence, sir.

Ah.

Does the young man have your permission to take your plate?

Take his plate.

Then reset the places.

Did you lend him money?

No, sir.

You're a relative.

Not that I know of, sir.

Flass.

Mr. Stubb.

You ever see a squall come in over a thousand miles of ocean, boys?

No, sir.

The sky goes black and boiling and it reaches across to heaven.

You will have to take in these sails in a moment.

In a breath.

Or boom!

Down we go.

Tagoo?

Show him the ropes.

Weak way?

Fish mail.

I'm not going up the nigger.

Tagoo?

There are no niggers on my ship, Bishop.

Only sailors.

And if I ever hear you calling that again, I'll turn you black.

I'm blue.

Where you going now?

Blue.

Practice to your hands, please, boys.

One dollar for a clean hit.

Ropes of a green horn.

There you go.

Wait for my word.

Hit it now.

Wait for it.

That's why it's the best.

I don't think it was a clean hit.

Clean hit, sir.

And I don't think so.

Why stay away from my word?

Quick, quick, quick!

One dollar.

You don't get to give me orders, sailor.

Quick, quick!

One dollar, Mr. Stubborn.

This can only end one way.

Put your hand down.

One dollar.

Quick, quick!

Right!

Will!

Will, the Lord have missed you!

Find Drake!

Find Drake!

Find Drake!

There she goes!

Hold the log!

You!

Down here, now!

Who are you, boy?

What are you thinking of?

Think you can do anything you like, is that it?

You're a big man, is that it?

Nothing green about you, is there?

Been wailing all your life, perhaps?

This is my command, boy.

I know every man on this ship.

I know what they can and cannot do.

And I watch them.

I know when to act, when to stay silent.

See, like a well-run family, only from what I hear,

you do not know a great deal about such things.

Have you ever seen a whale, boy?

No, sir.

Do you have any idea how big they are?

His liver is two cartloads.

They can grow to a hundred feet long.

And teeth.

He has teeth.

You think I'm scared, sir?

I'm not scared.

No?

Who are you, little boy?

Hey!

Hey!

Come on!

You go out in a little boat.

It's a tiny little thing with a few lances up against this angry mountain.

Do you understand what that's like?

Do you have any idea?

I can imagine, sir.

Oh, I think you can.

I think that's something you can do very well.

Imagine.

Show's over.

Back to work.

You call that a beating?

A real beating takes half an hour to an hour.

It's nice to see that you can laugh about it, Finn.

We'd never stand for this in Chicago.

Well, I guess this isn't Chicago.

Where's Chicago?

It's a long, long way from here.

How

long till we get a whale, Quick-Quick?

Maybe day.

Maybe month.

Quick-Quick does not find whale.

Whale find Quick-Quick.

Land!

Look!

Michigan!

Show your mother to give your sisters a bath!

Run away!

Sister, pull yourself together.

Tom?

We're at the island, sir.

And we are running late.

We'll make a good headway.

He will be setting out for the Cape by now, so...

Bring her in as usual, sir.

We sail on, Mr. Starbrook.

That's an order.

We going hunting?

Put ourselves a pig on to, eh, Pitt?

Ha, ha, ha, ha!

Mr. Starbrook.

We sail on.

Come on, boys.

It's been seven months, Mr. Starbrook.

It's an order.

Horde about, gentlemen.

Horde about!

You heard, Mr. Starbrook?

Horde about!

It's time for us to go, And it's time for us

to Leave her, Leave her, Johnny, Leave her!

For the ship won't stand On a bar, Leave her, Johnny, Leave her.

The whole thing don't feel right.

Ask yourselves, how come we didn't stop at them islands back there?

Why is our captain keeping us hungry?

Why ain't we eating fresh food?

He's not the one keeping us hungry, friend.

One thing I know.

I didn't sign up to be treated like no animal.

What did you sign up for?

Hm?

Because I signed up to catch whales.

And where are the whales?

He found us any whales?

Patience, brother.

All we are being given are promises.

And we can't fill our bellies on promise.

The whole ship's on a promise!

That's how it works.

Our stay goes right.

We have to have patience.

And we have to try and get along.

We're all equals here.

Aye, that's true.

Hey, Schmidt.

Sir.

I know you don't want to be late for your watch.

So is that a whale?

No, I don't think so.

Better be sure next time.

That's an old dream.

That's an old dream.

She's the one who won the first place, so, you know.

Give ear unto my words, O Lord, my meditation way.

Hear my loud cry, my King, my God, for I to thee will pray.

Lord, thou shalt early hear my voice, I early will direct.

My prayer to thee in looking up, an answer will expect.

That's nice.

How excellent in all the earth, Lord, our Lord is thy name,

who has thy glory far advanced above the starry frame.

My prayer to thee in looking up, my answer will expect.

For thou art not a God that doth on wickedness delight, neither shall evil

dwell with thee, nor fools stand in thy sight.

You know, someday, I'm gonna kill me some whales.

Oh, ho, ho!

First blood for Pip!

That is property of Pip!

We'll see you, sweetheart!

Summer dresses, yeah!

He gets a wave.

What did you say, boy?

Is it just the back of that fucking microphone?

Look at that!

Howdy-do.

You're dead!

That fucking jinn-up!

How are you?

How's it going?

What's he want?

We've only had four boys!

We have nothing late to say to you.

Swami.

Ah!

Look

at me, look at me, look at me.

Somebody, help me get this man down.

What the hell is that?

Starboard!

You're not using it!

Keep the boat secure!

The mast's dying!

Everyone!

I think I saw something below!

What did you see?

Secure the boat!

Ishmael!

I can't be sure.

Where the hell is Captain Neah?

All right, go and tell the captain now.

Where else on the windward beach?

Females and calves!

Faring five degrees north!

All right, you all right?

All right.

Tash, get out of the damn boat!

Where else, Captain?

Where?

Do you hear him?

Not there in the ocean.

Just the other side of our wooden walls.

Heard of whales, Captain.

On the windward beam.

It's him.

Why is he here?

What does he want?

Females or young cubs, sir.

Females, of course.

He wants them.

He's here to mate.

For a moment I thought he was looking for us.

But no, he's done what he came to do.

He's moving away from the herd.

He's moving off.

And we're here.

Well, he happened to be in his...

We'll lose him.

Fix the course southwest.

Uh, no, sir.

That's the other way from where the... I'm Captain.

This ship's not where I was asking for your opinion.

Come on, guys.

Help.

All right, take it easy.

Now, Pip, give him some room, all right?

Give him some room.

Lower boats, here.

Lower boats, Mr. Starbuck?

That's awesome.

Come on, here.

Lower boats, Mr. Starbuck.

All right.

All right.

All right.

He's taking the southwest.

That's opposite to the damn shore!

Oh, gosh.

Sir.

Get her a lever, boys.

You keep her a lever.

Well, on the windward beam.

Permission to lower boats.

They need this, sir.

It's been 13 months and nothing.

Windward beam?

Boyd didn't make it clear?

First trip, we'll forgive him.

Well, Captain is right.

Mine would do a thing like that.

Steer away from a whole herd of waves.

Mad men, that's who.

Lower boats.

Lower way.

Lower way!

Lower way, boys!

Lower boats!

Let's go, boys!

Close to windward.

All right.

Lower boats!

Lower boats, open up.

All right, boys.

Yo.

Right on my boat.

We quit.

Where's my horsemen?

Is this your first whale?

What do you think it was that bumped our boat and made that poor sailor fall?

Want to come with me and have a look?

East side!

Easy now, boys.

Easy.

Uh,

not today, my friend.

Now they will come.

But I'm not afraid.

It's too dangerous, Pip.

Come on, boys!

Let's go!

This is stuffed fish, boys!

You remember that?

This is stuffed fish!

Jonas!

Let's go, boys!

Come on, let's beat those bastards!

What's the cops into?

Sir, I think he's gone.

Oh, what?

The white whale might be up there.

Oh, God help me.

Stay on course.

Watch your stroke, Ismael.

Watch your stroke.

It's a stuffed whale, boys!

We want to get ourselves a girl at the edge of the earth, boys!

That's all those fishies will be after!

Get down, Pip!

Get down!

This is a stuffed whale, boys!

Drag it, Tess!

I'll have that whale!

Or I swear I'll have you!

Right now!

I got her, sir!

She's coming back!

Get down, Pip!

Ship your oars!

Get in!

Ship your oars!

Where do you want this?

Push down this fucking rope!

Get in the rope!

Put it down!

Hold on, Gil!

Hold on!

There they go!

Come on, boys!

Don't you let go of them!

Leave them!

Hold on, Gil!

Hold on!

Hold on!

Hold on!

Keep trying!

This is tough!

Come on, my darling!

This is tough!

Come on, my sweetie pie!

Cut the rope!

You'll be ripped in half!

Hold on, Pip!

There's the rope!

This is tough!

There's the rope!

Cut it!

Damn you!

Damn you!

Damn you!

Damn you, you shouldn't even be in the boat!

Damn you!

Damn you!

Why'd they cut?

What's wrong?

You keep out of my sight!

You keep out of my sight!

The oar's in the water!

Heave!

Heave together!

What happened, Pip?

Piss!

Piss!

That stumped whale, Mr. Starbuck!

E!

First blood!

This bitch is ours now!

That'll round up.

Get the oars back in the water!

That bitch is stumped, bitch, and don't you forget it!

Don't slap the oars.

Here she is.

Easy.

Easy.

Shh.

We're almost on him, sir.

All right.

Quiet as we can.

Shh.

Come on, boys!

That's it, bud.

Let's get our take.

Almost there.

You're ready.

Prepare to ship oars.

Prepare to ship oars.

Ooh!

Ship oars!

Ship oars!

She's gonna run!

She's gonna run!

Get him in!

Get him in!

Put the valve pin in!

Let it out!

All right.

Lock her off.

All right!

Here we go!

Here we go!

Here we go!

Whoa!

Whoa!

I've been dragged by the bank of a black boy!

Don't let the nose drop!

Your butt's really smell!

Yeah!

Yeah!

Blow your ass!

Get it going!

Fill this bucket with water!

Give me some water!

All right!

She's getting tired!

All right!

She's tired now!

All right!

She's tired now!

Keep it going, boys!

Keep it going!

Keep driving now!

Hold oars!

Almost there!

He's down there, boys.

All right.

I can feel it.

Look alive now, boys.

Look alive.

Bro!

Bro, let's come on out.

Easy, boys.

Easy now.

Easy, boys.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

Easy now.

She has sisters, boys!

I thought she was your sister, Dagoose!

She smells like your mother!

Here's to a short and prosperous venture!

What happened to the bloody wind?

The fire beneath the air.

He's there, though, boys.

You want that doubloon.

You look sharp, lads.

Put the knife in his throat.

Easy now.

Gently, please.

Easy now, easy.

Look for it, please.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Hand of the doubloon.

Here I am.

I

have to tell you that again!

Dago!

Did anybody see him?

Everybody okay?

Here

then was this gray-headed ungodly old man.

Chasing with curses a whale around the world.

At the head of a crew of mongrel renegades and castaways and cannibals.

He'll be back!

Get him!

How was it we responded to the old man's anger?

What evil magic possessed our souls so that his hate seemed ours?

That was him.

Will he come back?

That was Moby Dick.

Will he come back?

He'll be back.

The white whale seemed the gliding great demon of the seas of life.

Give me a borrow!

It's nice with me, yes.

I could see nothing in him... but the deadliest evil.

We had chased a whale over the watery moors, slaughtered her in the valleys of

the deep, and then towed her alongside and beheaded her.

Her great padded skin was the property of her executioners.

And no sooner had we decanted her oil into the casks

than we would be off again to fight another whale.

How long could Leviathan endure so wide a chase?

No means to stop, Tyler.

Lift up that, if you please!

When I was a little lad so mighty Don't we three Way haul away We'll haul away Joe

He's ready for a kiss Wasn't so bad, was it, man?

Yes.

Applause for Mr. Staub.

He's killed his whale.

Must be 50 barrels of oil in her.

And that's the way to do it when Old Boat Whale comes in.

Is that you?

Stand firm.

We'll have him on the other side of the ship for a morning.

Won't he be gone by then, Captain?

What makes you say that?

The old bulls don't stay around the herd long, do they?

You read that in a book, did you?

Indeed, sir.

If I knew what a whale was gonna do, I'd be a very rich man, boy.

Mr. Staub, make sure these men have a drink.

They've earned it.

Will he be back?

Sir.

He'll be back.

If someone hung up my wife on a hook, I'd be back.

And when he comes, we'll be ready for him, will we not?

Aye.

Aye.

Yes, Captain.

Yes, Captain.

I sailed the seas for many years Not knowing what I was...

Wusslack!

Where's Pip?

Has anyone seen Pip since they hit the water?

Quick, wait.

Have you seen Pip?

No, not seen you.

I've got to check the lock.

Pip!

Mr. Staub, have you seen Pip?

Don't talk to me about that, boy.

Pip!

Pip!

You get you down below deck to move some barrels.

Pip!

Hooray!

Hooray!

We feel her like an orange.

Pip!

Pip!

Pip!

Pip!

Pip!

Help me.

I'm coming, Pip.

I'm coming.

I've got you.

You're safe.

You're safe.

I've got you.

Fade to flames, boys!

She'll burn herself up.

You smushed me out the state cook, Ramoyne.

Smells like the leopard in a day of judgment, does it not?

Can I have some help here?

Some help!

Man down at the larboard side needs some help.

Hey!

Hold up.

Hold up.

Tie us up.

Got it.

Got it.

Got it.

Got it.

All right.

Ready?

One, two, three.

What in God's name do you think you're doing?

Rescuing a member of the ship's company, Mr. Stubb.

I thought I told you to move some barrels.

Time is money.

He must have got swept overboard, sir.

I'll have to bring him on down to Captain's Quarter.

It's what you need, young man.

A glass of whiskey.

Sir.

I saw him, sir.

I saw the white whale, sir.

Where?

Where did you see him?

Exactly where Mr. Stubb killed his whale.

Let's get rid of this creature.

Work to be done.

I want her off my ship and I want men on both masts.

Double watch all night.

He won't stay long, I'll bet.

Come take care of your lad.

Sir.

Right.

Tash!

Tegu!

Three quick.

Michigan.

Down below.

Sir.

He breached.

Out of distance.

This close to me, I could have touched him.

Then he died.

He is... he is beautiful, sir.

As if he was showing you, I'm here and this is my territory.

You know, very... Your very presence was a challenge to him.

And if you challenge him, this creature changes lives.

But I didn't challenge him.

Anyone who shares a spirit is a challenge to him.

He thinks he owns the ocean.

I felt his strength, sir.

I felt the presence.

I was in his mouth.

His mouth, imagine.

And afterwards, for a while, I was like a madman.

Sometimes wonder if Mr. Starbuck thinks I've not deviated from that position.

Do you think that?

No, sir.

I don't think that.

You were close to him.

You understand.

Yes, sir.

No, B.

Dick.

Just saying that's enough to scare hell out of a man.

Yes?

He's white.

He's the pallor on the cheeks of the dead.

You ever seen a dead man?

No, sir.

We paint such pretty things on the universe.

But in fact, it is all space.

It's all emptiness.

It's all whiteness.

Like the whale.

Oh, he's in your blood now.

He's clutched your heart.

Where do you think you're going?

Get back down there.

This is my whale still-kill.

Check every barrel.

Leaks cost money and I want every drop of this bitch.

What did I do wrong?

Get that skin on the fire!

There's nothing wrong, Mrs. Wheely.

You'll get used to it, Fred.

Time to get out of here.

You'll be as black as the rest of us.

I know.

You know what these are?

No.

They call them veins.

Oh.

Like the veins in your body.

That's it.

Veins.

They carry the blood round your body.

The blood goes down and round your back.

And these are...

The tracks that the whale makes.

Just like the tracks the swallow makes going south to find warmer weather...

We make tracks too, going this way.

...and that across the globe, looking for food and shelter.

You'd lose him so easily.

Mm-hmm.

Once he's on the line.

Of course, of course.

Of course he could go anywhere.

He has the whole world at his disposal.

But he's here.

Standing his ground.

Waiting.

Waiting.

Here.

Here.

Now.

Later, Mr. Starbuck.

Now.

Seen enough to split the planets?

You've been where untold hopes and anchors

rock, and have not a word to say, and now we do.

Anything we like with you, we turn you into

hard cash, into heat and light for all America.

Captain.

Big, isn't she?

She has sisters even bigger.

And we can see them.

They're spouting.

I don't think we need to concern ourselves with this one's sisters.

There's only one whale.

Moby Dick.

This lad here saw him.

Last night.

Enoch, more than 300 yards away.

Let's get out of here as fast as possible, then.

No need to be afraid of him, boys.

I never said I was scared, Captain.

He's the one who's scared, the white whale.

We don't even know where this white whale is.

I think we do, sir.

Look at all those birds on the starboard bow.

Look at all those birds, sir.

That's him.

That's him all right.

He's moving off.

Stand by.

Put up sail and make course northeast, Mr. Starbuck.

This is crazy, lads.

Hold your tongue.

Shit.

You all saw that thing.

You all did.

We go up against it and we'll die.

Know your place.

Didn't we swear an oath?

Death to Moby Dick.

Aye.

We to turn our backs on our duty, gentlemen.

We to doff our caps, make way, carry on, proceed.

Sir Whale, who are we to interrupt your progress through the world?

Make war on the whole damn fishery?

He's evil.

He's evil.

He will kill and maim and plunder the seas until we stop him.

I thought you said there was no danger in him, sir.

There is danger when I say there is, Mr. Starbuck.

Captain, what in God's name are we doing?

We're turning our back on 300 barrows to chase a white whale.

We?

We?

I'm giving orders, Mr. Stump.

You're obeying them.

This is your duty.

Northeast, all hands.

Get that head off my ship.

Follow those birds.

Put on Rochelle.

Rochelle.

There it is.

There it is.

Move quick.

Oh my God, he's enormous.

He's turning.

Bring down the square.

Square.

Spill the wind.

Slow down, boys.

This is your ship now, Mr. Starbuck.

He's trying to ram us.

On no account.

No ready sails.

I will have no man on my ship who's afraid of a whale.

You misquote me, sir.

All my words are my own.

Mr. Starbuck, you would do well to remember that.

Closing, sir.

300 yards.

300 yards.

We're

going to make the ship down.

300 yards, sir.

We're

going to make him down.

He's sounding.

Hold it there.

He dived.

He's gone.

On orders, Captain.

Wait.

Now you can take and sail, Mr. Starbuck.

Have you lost your mind?

Are we to wait for him to strike us from below?

You, sir?

What have you lost?

He's here, man.

He's almost in our grasp.

The last of you lost all courage.

Where is he?

What's his strategy?

He's gone.

Gone?

Gone!

Do not imagine that you can escape.

For I swear that you will not.

At every crossroads of the sea I will be there.

Until I see you spout black blood roll back into the sea.

And die!

What about the girls, Captain?

Look, sir, there's thirty of them.

Play and not spook.

They'll wait for us.

Shall we turn back?

Please, sir, let's turn back.

He's headed northeast.

Toward the South China Sea.

That's where we'll go.

Northeast, all right.

What are you waiting for, Mr. Starbuck?

You really think you can track one whale across all that ocean?

Of course.

And will you give that order?

Or do I have to do your job as well as my own?

Last time I looked, you were my first mate.

Or is it time for more restraint?

As I told you before, you were not yourself.

Do they have a...

or some other man?

I seem to know myself quite well.

I answer my name when I call myself...

Ahab.

Ahab.

Present and correct.

Ahab!

I repeat, will you give the order?

Northeast, keep on all sails.

Cram on all you can.

Northeast!

Top gallants!

Cram on all you can!

Sharp eye for spouts!

Sharp eye.

And last voyage.

After the white whale took his lay.

A rumor adds that you put him in a straitjacket.

He was crazy.

With anger and hatred.

He swore vengeance on a whale.

Elijah spoke of a prophecy.

In his fever, the captain talked of his own death.

He saw a hearse on the water.

And he was to die by hanging.

Well, the men don't like it.

We heard say he was a bastard.

Now, they're chasing one whale across thousands of miles of desolate ocean.

But we have his address, Mr. Star.

The South China Sea.

One whale may be enough for him, Mr. Star, but...

But then...

Oil.

We got ourselves a leak, Mr. Star.

Nice work, Mr. Star.

The left rock burns.

Stop the ship and check every barrel.

Well, the captain is not gonna like that.

Well, he can't go against it, Mr. Starbuck.

Because if he does... It's proof plain he's not fit.

Not fit.

He ain't right.

It's not right.

He kept him.

But he's been.

Does anyone know exactly where we're headed?

Yeah.

20 degrees east of north.

Java, the white whale's feeding grounds.

And what are we gonna do when we come up against that thing?

Captain knows what he's doing.

He has a plan.

We just have to follow him.

We do not speak against the captain.

It's a big fish.

It's all it is.

That's the deputation.

I copy.

Don't tell me.

Here's the quality of the food.

Where he goes, you go, it seems.

Yes, sir.

That's good.

It's friendship.

It's the start of a life.

Aye.

Mr.

Starbuck and Mr. Stubbs.

Not your friends, sir.

They speak against you.

Have you heard this?

Ishmael.

Oh, I had noticed.

Is it any wonder when we chase Leviathan across the watery plains to slaughter him

in the valley of the deep, he makes the sea seethe like a boiling pan,

and we aim to track him and kill him with whose help?

Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

Although I'm told he's Mr. Starbuck's close and personal friend, I do not think so.

We are alone.

I'm not afraid, sir.

Well, I can see that.

Will you look into the fire with me,

wander out of the way of understanding?

Quick, quick, afraid of nothing.

Sir, they're gonna put it to you.

I am not afraid of my crew, young man.

Come.

You may say anything you like in front of these lads.

There's a leak in the hold.

We have to up burdens and take a look.

Are you telling me that we have to heave to for

a week and tinker with a parcel of old hoops?

Those casks of oil are what we are here for, sir.

I am captain of this ship.

I'm telling you that I want no more talk of casks of oil.

I sailed with you all my life.

I mean you no harm.

The one you should fear is yourself, old man.

Ahab, beware Ahab.

Ahab.

Beware Ahab.

There's something there.

There's something there.

Well, listen to the voice of reason.

Tomorrow, gentlemen.

All men, stand for the captain.

All men, stand for the captain.

Thank you, Mr. Flask.

Up burdens, gentlemen.

Furl to gallon sails, close-reap topsails, fore and aft.

We pause here a while, gentlemen.

Can't lose our precious cargo.

Money.

Here's to money and sweet reason.

See to those casks, Mr. Stubb.

You heard what the captain said, gentlemen.

Top men lay aloft.

Going aloft, sir.

Were you not in charge of storing the barrels, Mr. Stubb?

Yes, sir.

It's a very serious matter, Mr. Stubb.

We are engaged in a great enterprise here, are we not?

And because of you, we have to take days out.

You get to it, and quickly to it.

You, you two, and you down below.

Mighty the Boy ain't here.

Proceed.

Keep me informed, Mr. Starbuck.

Tagoo.

Down below.

Yes, Mr. Starbuck.

Just because you're not looking at me, don't mean I can't see you, boy.

Yes, Mr. Starbuck.

Quickly now, lads.

You heard Mr. Stubb.

Quickly.

I can't breathe.

I can't take it.

I can't take it in an hour.

Please don't send me back.

Please don't send me back.

Is she gone?

Where you go?

There's a barrel in there.

It's leaking, and you need to find it.

I can't go back in there.

Are you disobeying orders, sailor?

No, sir.

Devilbeard.

Over here.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

I need help.

Here you go.

Come on.

When you catch your breath, miss...

you can go back to work.

He'll be here.

At this exact point.

There's nothing random in nature, young man.

Animals return to the same spot again and again and again as do we.

We think, imagine that we have free will.

But all the time...

we are born entangled.

In whale lines.

Enmeshed in the future that is laid down for us...

as precisely as the way the rope runs from the coil in the harpoon.

Well, at least we know what the future will be.

Why bother trying to change it?

Oh.

I presume you are referring to the superstitious

nonsense all the men are whispering.

Elijah, we give him prophets' names, but they're not prophets.

He has a sermon on my approaching death.

I'll pass it up for anyone who will listen, but

I will die in the manner of my choosing, boy.

Our freedom lies in the struggle...

to escape what fate's laid down for us.

To make our future for ourselves.

I couldn't agree more, sir.

The first lowering will be to weaken him.

That'll be all.

Quick.

Throw.

Get out.

Cut the lines if we have to.

Then, remember, he has no vision to his rear.

While he's still thrashing about this way and that one boat comes in from behind.

The others should come in from the side.

He can see them.

I'm distracted.

Yeah.

I'll put you in the masthead.

You look only for him.

You see another whale or whales you don't.

That's what you want?

Ain't no time for anything else.

I'm gonna work for Death.

And for what?

Duty.

I'll tell you.

The only thing that works... on this damn ship...

when the captain... matches his walks...

is creatures.

I am no man's creature, country boy.

You remember that.

No.

Mr. Stubb!

The Great Whaleman!

I'm turning his way from his shore and chase a fish he can't even see.

You got some mouth on you, Michigan.

That's just the way I like it.

No.

Your friend Queequeg...

is the best we have, sir.

Almost.

Almost, but he is good.

He can go in the second boat.

I'll go in the lead.

And then, when Moby Dick breaches...

Listen.

You don't own me!

If you touch me, I'll kill you!

Back off!

Stop it!

Michigan, don't do it.

Back down!

Back down!

Did you hear me?

We have to put you all in the hole.

By God, I'll do it.

Seize him!

Seize him down!

Down!

I told him.

I told him if he touched me, I'd kill him.

Of course.

What shall we do?

Flog him.

Put him in irons in the hole.

Stop!

Stop!

Don't tell them!

You have no idea what it's like.

They are so foul, you could die of it, sir.

It is the work of the ship that has to be done.

He will be flogged, Mr. Starbuck.

Those are my orders.

If that's your order, sir.

I'd like to flog him myself, sir, with your permission.

Justice.

Justice.

Yes, boys.

That's what gives us order.

That's for nothing but animals.

Put the sailor in the hole for now.

I will judge this business in the morning in my cabin.

Mr. Starbuck, Mr. Stubb, you will attend.

You too may attend.

To see all's done fairly have I done squarely by you lads.

Aye, sir.

Aye, sir.

You have matters of great importance in hand.

I will let nothing come in their way.

We have to be as one.

Aye, sir.

Until tomorrow.

Six bells.

You heard the captain.

We found the leak, sir.

Six bells, Mr. Stubb.

Right.

Back to work.

Tego, are you a passenger on this ship or are you earning a living?

Now move, you black ass.

Nothing, sir.

What's wrong?

Nothing inside as far as the horizon, sir.

That boy would stare out the sun if he gave the order.

Mr. Stubb, shall we have your account of the matter?

I gave this man an order and he refused to obey it.

Cleaning out the hole is a dirty business.

Be quick.

Take a bit.

He does not complain.

Give a note.

It's a noble task at hand, boys, are we too.

Fight amongst ourselves.

Everything needs to be taken in hand, sir.

Everyone on the quarterdeck now, Mr. Stubby, is all yours.

One?

All one.

Do you want us to fight?

Over the hold.

That's not right.

What precisely is not right, Mr. Starbuck?

What is happening here, setting men against each other like animals.

Anything is committed on this ship.

It would do well to remember that.

Divided rule, is that the way?

In so good order, criminals... Sir, I have heard Steel Kid speaking...

You are a foolish boy.

This has nothing to do with the breach of discipline,

and everything to do with the damned white whale.

Get him, Mr. Stubby!

Come on, Mr. Stubby.

When I say so, Mr.

Starbuck.

Enough, Mr. Stubby.

That was a fair fight.

Eh?

That's always a fair fight.

And we always win.

Throw some water over him, lads.

This isn't water he needs.

He needs a surgeon.

Sometimes dogs need kindling, Mr. Starbuck.

And mad dogs need restraint.

Any further grievances, Mr. Stubby?

No, sir.

And the leak is fixed, you say?

Yes, sir.

And I trust you have no objections... if we continue on our business?

No, sir.

All right, lads.

Let's get the poor bastard down to the...

Mind his head.

Easy now.

Definitely, sir.

You all right, Kweek-Wig?

Something wrong with... with what happened to Steel Kemp?

Kweek-Wig?

But he... he kind of asked for it, right?

Maybe we picked the wrong ship.

What?

Get up here.

Hey, oh, hey.

Okay, we got it.

You sure?

Yeah.

The gookit blanket.

Water.

Not well, Quickman.

Boat.

They're in formation.

They're doing a sweep.

Sir.

Sir, a ship.

Laura Bell.

It's the Rachel.

Out of Nantucket.

Go and tell the captain.

I'm looking for something.

Someone.

Oh, thank God.

You have my last chance.

Thank God.

Thank God you're here.

So the flag's on your ship, Captain.

How many men have you lost?

No, it's my son, sir.

Tom.

I know him, Captain.

He's the fishiest boy in Nantucket.

He's a credit to you, sir.

He had a hot pool in the White Whale.

And he just ran.

To the northeast.

He didn't die?

Oh, no.

Run.

Run is the only word for it, sir.

And then?

And then...

He's gone, sir.

Our boy's gone.

Oh, no.

Come on.

Northeast, you say?

We and the Rachel head west, and we take a course together.

We can go to the sea between here and Java.

We are chasing the White Whale.

It is where your son will be.

Is it?

It says we understand each other.

I'm concerned with my son.

It's the boat we're looking for, sir.

The lad would have cut long ago.

Mr. Starbot, please do not tell me things they already know.

I know what we're looking for.

We're losing time.

No.

No, no.

You can't do this.

No, my son.

Sir.

No, you can't do this.

It's my son.

I curse you, Ahab!

My son!

My boy!

Why won't you help him?

I beg of you, please!

I am.

Please!

Help me find my son!

What do you suppose will bring that man more

satisfaction if I return with the body of his dead child?

Or the head of his murderer?

And when you find him.

When you... When you kill Moby Dick.

If...

If you kill Moby Dick.

It will be over.

What?

What are you teaching him?

How to act like a man?

Do you dare do as much?

You may live to regret that remark, sir.

You can't do this!

You rot in hell!

I hope you sink to the bottom!

May that happen not you!

May that happen not you!

Captain, try that.

There's nothing to be done.

But killing that bastard will make us all feel better.

You mean the whale, right?

Now you're one of us.

Man the gyps!

The whale is the windward... ...pillar to windward!

Sail straight to hell!

Put on more sail!

We have everything up there, Captain.

More canvas!

I tell you, sir, there is none!

Why are you looking at me like that, Mr. Starbuck?

You know very well, Captain.

Blow, damn you!

Blow, damn you!

Blow!

Damn you!

Young Pip.

Do you think you're Captain Crazy?

Will the whale perish, do you think?

Will he fade away from the earth?

Poor Pip.

Come here.

Mr. Flash should have stopped when we had the chance.

Give me some water.

Ishmael!

Come down!

You're relieved of your duties.

Sir, the Captain said he was... I'm aware of what the Captain said.

You're relieved.

You have some water.

Is he still gonna die?

He's gonna die.

Welcome to the sickbay.

What are you doing?

I'm measuring him for his coffin.

Quick, quick.

Quick, quick.

Still no wind.

No wind, no morbid yet.

Quick, quick, I'm not going to let that happen.

I rip me out from the cage.

For that I were as in months past, as in the days when God preserved me,

when his candles shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through

darkness, as I was in the days of my youth,

when the secret of God was upon my tabernacle.

The blessing of him... Sir.

Sir, Quick-Quick thinks he's dying.

I can't get him to drink any more.

The whole ship is dying because of your precious captain.

Is he not your captain also, sir?

I love the old man.

That's the heart of me.

But he is poison to all your heads with his blood.

He swore on Moby Dick.

We are sick, Ishmael.

Got close to the white whale.

He accursed us all.

How still and peaceful is the grave where life's fame tomels past.

The appointed house by heaven receives us all at last.

You want this, don't you?

This life?

You don't want Moby Dick the white?

Oh, my captain.

I would like to see Ned Duckett again.

I'm afraid...

I don't know what it is or why.

But I keep pushing and crowding and jamming myself on all the time.

We will die, sir.

We will die chasing that damn fish.

Have we not outwitted a thousand times, you and I?

Have we not split an ocean full of blood?

The smiling sky and the unsighted ocean.

The great shroud of the sea.

Rolling on as it rolled 5,000 years ago.

And we'll sleep...

on the field.

Am I merry?

Waiting for me?

Is that all?

This is my home.

You can't die quickly.

You have a whale to kill.

And I can't do it without you.

I'm here to read the last rites.

He has a different bible, Mr. Flask.

The marks on his body will guide his people to his soul and bring it home.

Can't die quick, quick.

We have a whale to kill, we can't do it without you.

You kill the whale and we all go home.

Simple.

I want that now, man!

You're kinda saying that good.

She's blowing boys... she's blowing!

I did!

The

gods are not ready for you yet, my friend.

Quick, quick!

Welcome back.

It's getting up, sir.

Struggle with every minute.

Cross those lines!

If I give that order, Mr. Starbuck...

Obey that!

We have to protect against the squalls, sir.

Keep as much sail up as we have!

Let the wind...

carry us to the White Whale.

He'll be blindsided, sir.

It'll rip us apart.

Corsos, Mr. Starbuck.

That's our order.

Cross those lines!

All hands to the foredeck!

All hands to the foredeck!

Secure the Corsos!

Corsos!

To the right, left!

Overlose and over the side!

Can you smooth anything, Perk?

Anything, Captain.

These wrinkles from my forehead, can you...

Wipe the care from my face?

I owe you work and steel, sir.

But I will make your harpoon razor-sharp.

For the White Whale.

Hm?

To cut into him.

To cut into him.

He's mine.

I know he is now.

I have him in my sights.

Are you with me, my boys?

Aye, Captain.

Aye, Captain.

Captain!

We need you on deck!

We need to take in sail!

I will fight!

Captain!

Come on!

I'll finish it!

Is it... that difficult?

What do you say, pagans?

Will you lend your power... to my blade...

with your blood?

We must reduce sail!

Turn her around and face the wind!

Respect for your captain.

Mr. Starbuck, he knows what he is doing.

We take joy in iron and fire and blood.

But we'll sail through it.

Digo te absolvo.

In nomine...

...te absolvo.

Diabolo.

Touch us now, my boys!

Captain!

I am your captain, Mr. Starbuck!

I am Lord God Almighty, as far as you're concerned!

Burn me if you dare...

or lead me... to be dead!

The price you have set... will destroy us all!

Have faith, Mr. Starbuck!

I can shape the elements to my purposes...

as surely as I can steer this ship across the ocean.

You swore... to hunt the whale, did you not?

In blood and fire... you are bound to your own!

We drank from the same cup!

Did!

We!

Now!

To cut the heart out of the white whale... we can sail through it... and we will...

extinguish the last... fear!

It's a miracle!

You see the handle of the fire?

It's got the power of God!

All the power of God!

We will go on!

Together!

You heard the captain, man!

We go on!

In

the name of Jesus... this madness has to stop.

You...

have enslaved the crew... to a false communion.

You encouraged the worst in their nature... and presented us marriage.

Some men die at low tide... others at full flood... but die we must.

I must kill him... or he must kill me... and there's an end of it.

You seem to forget... that you are not the only man... on this boat.

God made us to live... to aspire for the best... in ourselves... and in each other.

Scruples.

Does Moby Dick... have scruples?

The will of God... the murmuring of the fates... the wail... they are all the same.

The world is a white canvas... on which we paint...

our own story.

We are not so very different... you and I.

We're brothers under the skin... I've seen you and I.

You want blood... just as much as I do.

No, I do not.

And yet you seek mine.

For the first time in my life... I wish God made me... other than I am.

Well then, old friend... let us start again.

Oh, Mac.

Did I not tell you... Mr. Starbuck... the world is there to be mastered?

Ready, sir?

You've got it.

No.

It's still mad as a hatter.

Not wrong now, boys.

You'll have all the coin you want... when we are through.

But when we kill this monster...

I will have enough oil... to power America, will we not?

Yeah!

Push me up this mast, Mr. Starbuck.

It seems I am the only man... with his wits about it today.

You'll all be captains... of your own ship.

I'll get my own ship.

Every man will have a house... on Main Street.

No!

No!

Yes, captain!

Long after the green grass... grows over us... there will be songs sung...

in the inns of Nantucket... about Captain Ahab and his crew.

Yes!

The braveest... boldest boys... ever took to sea...

will be immortal, lads!

Yeaaaaah!

Hey!

Whoo!

Enjoy the but shall be celebrity and show flour ah cre DF and faculty there's a Bo

or are you seeing And blow the wind south early, south early, south early.

The warmer breeze, my fortune to me.

My ship and my fortune has come home.

Birds!

Birds, Captain.

Northeast gathering.

Finally.

Head

out the jet of whites.

Just have a smear of the size of a barrel.

Birds!

Indeed, boy.

Follow them.

Issue the order, if you please, Mr. Starbuck.

Give the order, if you please, Mr. Stump.

Northeast shot!

All right.

You heard him.

Man the boats.

Stand by the foes.

Double your gear.

Let's hurry.

Get him.

Watch yourself.

Remember you, Tom.

Right.

Now he's killing this bastard.

Remember, Mr. Stump, we come from behind and throw to weaken him.

I can't.

We bleed him before we bring him in.

There is no shame in cutting the line today.

No, sir.

Throw and get out, Mr. Flath.

Sharp and quick.

Very good, sir.

A strong hand and a good heart.

Your sword of justice, Captain.

We exhaust him until he has no more fight in him, Mr. Starbuck.

And then when he lies, wallowing in his own blood, we will reel him in.

No, sir.

Not today.

I will not follow you.

There is no enemy out there.

The only enemy is before me.

And as such, you fail me as first mate.

My failure before God was to raise a gun against you.

My success was not to shoot.

Gentlemen, I ask you all to please open your eyes.

Our captain is taking us to the bottom of the sea.

This old man has no respect.

Fool.

I am the fate's lieutenant.

No one can finish me.

Stop.

Stop.

Promotion.

Consider yourself first mate.

We quick sail with him.

Ishmael with me.

According to our oath...

Give way together.

Row, boys!

Row!

Row, lads!

Row!

The white whale is ours!

Row for your lives!

We'll boil the sea with his blood!

Now row!

Row!

Row!

He's enormous, boys!

Oh, sweet Jesus!

Look at the size of it!

For his heart, Klee Quaid!

Strike now!

That's

as fast as a hundred, boys!

Pull now!

He's got one, lads!

Hold on now!

And we'll get that W!

And bring barrels of gold back!

The white whale, sir!

That's right.

He's on him, boys!

He's on him!

We can't hold him!

Over my dead body, Wilcox!

The bar is dipping!

Cut!

Mr. Stump, cut!

Let him loose!

Cut it!

I grabbed the axe!

Stop!

We're going after him!

Stump's gone!

Poor Stump!

Hold oars, lads.

Hold oars.

The moldy and over-salted death!

But we will have our revenge!

I'll spit my last breath it in!

Grab those sticks, boys!

Grab your oars!

Pull!

Revenge!

Pull for revenge!

For Mr. Stump!

And Queequeg!

And our mates!

Row!

This is the lawn!

Whoa!

A dead whale or a stoned boat!

Row!

Easy for now, boys.

Easy for now.

Oh, boys!

Queequeg!

Queequeg ain't dead yet, sir!

He ain't dead yet!

Leave him!

He'll make it to the ship!

Leave him!

We're going for the whale!

Get away together.

Keep steady, lads.

We're on course.

Courage, boys.

Eyes open!

Hearts open!

Row!

Back to shore!

Moby Dick is ours!

Row!

Row straight!

Death to Moby Dick!

Be quick!

Come on.

Give me your hand.

Give me your hand.

He's too big.

He's too strong.

Hold oars, the birds!

Hold oars!

Here they come!

Yeah!

Courage, boys!

We found a whale and we were spooked by a couple of birds.

He's underneath us!

He's under us!

I don't see him.

I can't see him.

He's under us!

He's under us!

He's under us!

Moby Dick just shrugged him off his back.

How shall we proceed, my son?

The whale must be weakened.

What is your theory?

What does your instinct tell you?

We've lost ten men, sir!

We've lost ten men!

Captain!

There's only us.

Please!

It's impossible, sir.

We are not going to bow down before him, are we, lads?

Onward.

Slow and steady.

He'll find us.

Onward, boys.

It's madness, sir.

It's madness.

Boys!

He'll kill us anyway if we don't kill him.

He'll find us.

It's bac teng.

He'll come to us.

Throw it to hell.

Easy.

Steady.

Easy.

Steady.

That's it.

That's it.

You see.

He's offering himself.

Ready me a second harpoon.

Ship your arms.

Boy, ship your arms.

Ship arms.

Ship arms.

Alright.

You ready, boys?

Harpoon!

Run

from your death, Bobby Dick!

Run from your death!

You smell that, boys.

Where?

He's playing with us.

Captain, abandon the ship!

Pull!

Turn the boat!

He's trying to flip us over!

Turn the boat!

What was that, boys?

What was that?

You want to turn this boat?

Pull us over!

Keep going!

Hard on the port side!

Here it comes!

Are you coming with us?

I

promise you, my beloved.

There it is.

There's my horse, Ishmael.

My horse of American wood.

You will live!

You can take me to hell and back before I let go of you!

Get this rope!

We are one, you and I.

We are one.

They're coming!

Pip!

No!

Please help me.

I'll be there, Pip.

I'll be there.

Please stop it.

It's stuck.

I can't move it.

Please help me.

Please help me.

Sir, what is it?

Not frightened, sir.

Pip's no coward, Mr. Starbuck, sir.

I know that.

I have never known a braver captain, Roy.

I'll stay with you, son.

Thank you, Mr. Starbuck.

Thank you.

We will be together.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'll be right here with you.

There's nothing to be afraid of.

We'll go down together.

I'm not frightened, sir.

I floated on that coffin for almost one whole day and night while the great shroud

of the sea rolled on as it rolled 5,000 years ago.

The unharming sharks glided by me as if with padlocks on

their mouths until a sail drew nearer to pick me up at last.

The Rachel, still searching for her missing son, only to find an orphan.
