Original subtitles

In the summer of 1953, it was announced

that an atomic bomb of foreign origin

had been exploded somewhere outside of

the United States. Shortly thereafter,

it was indicated that this atomic

reaction, according to scientific

reports, had originated in a remote area

in North Pacific waters somewhere

between the northern tip of the Japanese

islands and the Arctic Circle. This is

the story of that explosion.

Hallelujah.

Hallelujah.

Professor

Huntel, I'm a cler of the Herald

Tribune.

>> Oh, yes. How do you do?

>> I understand that you're going to Vienna

to address the U. Central European

Federation of Advanced Scientists.

>> That is correct. I read the paper on the

emission of neutrons and collision of

nuclear.

>> Thank you, professor. Any member of the

American Atomic Energy Commission be

present?

>> I doubt it.

>> Would you excuse me, gentlemen?

police. We need

Excuse

me. There's one or two points I'd like

to get clarified.

>> You will have to excuse me, gentlemen.

The plane is waiting.

>> Who's the girl?

This is the BBC with the latest news

bulletin. Professor Montel, famous

nuclear physicist and atomic scientist,

has vanished while on route to attend a

conference in Vienna. Professor Montel's

disappearance is a complete mystery to

the police. Authoritative sources

revealed today that the former Nobel

Prize winner is the fifth noted

scientist believed to have vanished

behind the Iron Curtain. Professor

Montel was last seen at the

international airport in Vienna.

>> Speculation as to the whereabouts of

Professor Montel continues. 10 days have

elapsed since the distinguished

scientist vanished and so far police

have been unable to offer any

explanation.

>> Authorities are now convinced that

Professor Montel was not kidnapped and

that his disappearance was part of a

pre-arranged plan. Airport officials in

Vienna revealed that the scientist

carried a diplomatic passport.

>> The search for Professor Montel

continues into the fourth week. It is

interesting to note that while the story

has been given front page space in

newspapers in the United States and all

other parts of the free world, Proda,

the official mouthpiece of the Soviet

Union, has yet failed to take note of

it.

Japu.

>> Corporal Lee Stockwell.

>> Right.

>> Mr. RJ Mcdo.

>> That's right.

>> Mr. Trenton Meltz.

>> That's correct.

>> Jones.

>> I'm afraid you're mistaken. My name's

McDougall.

>> You're a dead ringer for an officer I

used to know in the submarine service.

>> Sorry.

>> Mr. McDougall.

>> Yeah.

>> My name is Eddie.

Your instructions.

There is a taxi waiting for you. The

driver knows the address. Taxi number

63.

>> Number 63.

Okay.

This is it.

>> Better wait for me.

>> No, I go now.

>> Wait a minute. What if I need you again?

Where can I find you? What's your name?

>> Eddie.

Mr. McDougall.

>> Yeah. Come in please and follow me.

Watch your step.

>> Now, don't tell me your name is Eddie,

too. Eddie is the password.

>> I'm Hokkaido for Jamori, Commander

Jones. I'm very pleased to meet you.

>> Thanks. For a minute there, I thought

this was out of inner sanctum.

>> You've lost a little weight.

>> I'm on a diet.

>> I'll bet Captain Taylor put a little fat

on it. Where is he?

>> I'm sorry to tell you. Your friend is

dead.

>> Dead?

>> His plane crashed returning from an

optic expedition.

No one survived.

He never did like to fly.

>> Why did he want me to come here? What

was the 5,000 for?

>> It's an advanced payment for a job

Captain Taylor was certain you would do

for us.

>> Advance?

>> Yes.

>> When do I start?

>> Without questions.

>> Why talk? If Taylor lined me up for the

job, it must be kosher.

>> Some people might not exactly call it

kosher. In here, please.

Gentlemen, Amanda Jones, Mr. McAuliff,

>> how do you do, sir?

>> General Schuman,

>> how are you?

>> Mr. Ellsworth, how do you do? and

Professor Montel.

>> Montel the scientist.

>> Yes.

>> Everybody and his brother's gunning for

you, Professor. They say you skip behind

the iron curtain.

>> As you can see, only a wooden door.

Glad you're here.

>> Thanks.

Quite a layout you got here.

What kind of business you gentlemen in?

>> The business of investigation.

The scientific investigation

of these uninhabited North Pacific

islands that lie in neutral waters

between the free world and the Iron

Curtain.

>> Our deductions make us believe that one

of these islands, we don't know which

one, Mr. Jones

has been prepared as an arsenal for

atomic weapons.

>> Your friend Captain Taylor volunteered

to undertake a photographic mission to

find out.

>> Volunteered?

>> Yes.

>> For free?

>> For free.

>> Is that when he had the accident?

>> It was no accident. His plane was shot

down.

>> This photograph we have just printed

came from the camera of his salvaged

plane.

30 years in the Navy and he gets killed

for a picture

for free.

>> Each man has his own reason for living,

Mr. Jones,

and his own price for dying.

This was Captain Taylor's price.

>> Well, there's nothing there, Professor.

It's a wash out.

>> I wouldn't be too certain. Extend these

lines.

They could be atic vault constructions

and over here could also be part of a

concrete.

>> Look uh look before we go any further.

>> Exactly what country do you men

represent?

>> We represent many countries as private

individuals. We are scientists, former

statesmen, businessmen, all volunteers

acting independently for a common cause

against the common enemy. As private

individuals, we can conduct this

investigation on a scientific basis

without violating any neutral warras.

And if what we suspect is verified, we

can then make our findings public.

>> And what good will that do?

>> Don't you think the truth is worth

knowing? Don't you believe that factual

proof will establish once and for all

both the identity and the intention of

the aggressor?

>> Who knows? But where do I fit into the

picture? We want you to command a ship

when inspection tour of these islands.

>> What kind of a ship?

>> A submarine. We know that four times

during World War II, you commanded a

submarine reconnaissance patrol in this

very area. As I recall, you were were

extremely successful in these waters

when you fought my country.

>> This time the enemy is different, Mr.

Jones, but the waters had a sin.

>> Received all $85,000.

20,000 in United States currency will be

deposited to your account any bank you

elect to show for professor Montel to

this island and another 25,000

bonus when you bring him back safely

with all the information he seeks.

>> What about the sub? Did it volunteer

too? One does not pick up a first class

submarine in the junkyard. Mr. Jones, we

have salvaged a Japanese submarine.

>> What class? All right. 203.

>> Sewer pipe. Had one of my tail ones for

six hours. Taylor, look her over.

>> Yes.

>> Start getting her refitted.

>> Yes.

>> Armed.

>> Mr. Jones, the object of this mission is

scientific investigation,

not combat.

>> Professor,

am I in command? That's right. Then we

arm the sub.

That is if you want me to get you back

in one piece.

Did you also salvage a crew? We have

picked volunteers, experienced men.

There will be two scientists on board.

Professor Montel and his assistant,

Professor Gerard. We aren't positive

which island it is. But a certain

freighter, the Kangqing,

has been up to this area several times

before with cargos of concrete and heavy

metals. She's loading again at the

>> last time I tailed a freighter, my price

was 650 a month, and I had to buy my own

uniforms.

All right. I want my own key men. Men

who served with me before. You name them

and we'll get them. Like you got me.

Huh? The cash

>> if it's necessary. As I said before, Mr.

Jones, each man has his own reason for

living and his own price for dying. I

hope for all of us that it will be

Give up. Help him with the line.

>> Give me the lighter.

>> Give up. You You give him a hand with

the torpedo.

>> How many hands you think I got,

>> Mr. You?

Now, make sure you give me the reading

on that battery.

>> Right,

>> come on. Come on. BRING IT DOWN, BOYS.

BRING IT DOWN. COME ON. HEY, COME ON

NOW. Easy now. Come on. Come on. Come

on. All right. Hold. All right, boys.

Make her faster to the cleat.

Don't you ever take a bath?

>> Shut up.

>> Shut up. Is that the extent of your

vocabulary? What' you ever give up the

wrestling racket for anyway?

>> I just found out it was phony.

>> That's the trouble with the I say that's

a trouble with these phony wrestlers,

Doug Boat. They never take a bath.

>> We do, too.

Jack, the after valve won't turn.

>> What?

>> The after valve won't turn.

>> No, no, the other way.

>> Everything's backwards. Nobody else lost

the war subs like this.

>> Skipper.

>> Yeah,

>> that guy. Wells. Any good?

>> Best engineer out of Australia.

>> Wish we had Wilbur.

>> Yeah, with Charlie Wilbur handling the

engines on the both end, there was

nothing to worry about. is a three

striper now.

>> Yeah. So I hear

>> this kid number two scopes don't work.

>> What's the matter with it?

>> Can't get the rust out of it.

>> How about number one?

>> Didn't check it.

>> Lift her up, hold her.

>> The professor topside wants to see the

captain.

>> Send him down.

>> It's part of the brass behind this. Now,

if he looks familiar, don't say

anything. I'll explain later.

Hello, professor. Welcome aboard, sir.

>> Captain,

>> well, we're trying to put this sewer

pipe together with a little spit and a

lot of sweat. I guess we'll make it. All

right,

>> Captain Jones.

>> What's the matter? Is there something

wrong?

>> I'm sorry to say we cannot permit one of

your crew to make this expedition.

>> What do you mean? They were all

handpicked.

>> You cannot trust this one.

>> Who?

>> The torpedo men, Revik.

>> Oh, one of the men you picked. I could

have told you that all the time. Not

hit.

Did you screen all my men, too?

>> Very closely,

including you.

>> Okay, I'll get rid of Revnik right away.

>> Good.

>> Hold on. What?

She the replacement, doc?

Gentlemen, this is Professor Gerard, my

assistant in my right arm. Hi,

>> Denise. This is Captain Jones.

>> Captain Jones.

>> Glad to know you, Professor. Well, if

I'd known about this, I'd have cut my

price.

>> Boys, these two professors are going

with us as cargo.

>> What?

>> You heard me.

>> Have you blown a gasket? Nobody takes a

female along the pig boat.

>> Look, Junior, you're going to give me

that 2,000-y old Navy bill that they're

bad luck. Take a look at it. What's so

bad about that?

>> Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

>> They're all Jonas. It's traditional.

>> I made up my mind. Count me out.

>> Okay.

Anybody else?

I'll give you jokers five minutes to

sleep on it. And remember, if I have to,

I can replace every one of you.

>> Captain I do not like it either.

Sultano.

>> Oh, excuse me.

>> Perhaps you are right. In your

estimation, I am a a female.

But first, I am a scientist and a good

one. And I am not the only scientist who

is not of your sex. There are many like

Dr. Lisa Mitner who played an important

part in the development of the atom

bomb.

like Madame Cury who discovered radium.

I have grown up in laboratories.

All my life I've worked with men. Never

have I interfered

and never have they resented me.

Professor Montel and I have have much to

accomplish

much.

and I shall appreciate it if you will

not let my my presence

be the cause of of a minor mut.

I like you.

I like you all.

And I shall try my best to make you like

me

as a scientist.

>> Man, that was quite a mouthful for a

female.

>> That's no female. That's a Cyrus.

>> All right, come on. We got a lot of work

to do. Let's go.

>> Hi, Mr. Fujimorei. Professor,

>> where's your assistant?

>> Are you prepared to sail?

>> I'll let you know tomorrow after we make

the running tide test.

>> There's no tomorrow left for us. Too

afraid of Kangqing sailed from Titson a

half hour ago. You must leave right

away.

>> What are you talking about? We only been

working for 2 weeks. We got a lot of

work left to do on this tub. You must

leave by dark to overtake her.

>> What about the running tests?

>> As an aviator, might I suggest that we

try the running test? While we are

running,

>> doctor, about a 100 ways of losing a

submarine, you've just come up with one

of the best. We haven't even checked the

torpedo tubes yet. You know what that

means? If we have to call on fish, it

means we're dead.

>> You've got to leave tonight.

>> Okay, Buster. You're buying this trip.

You want me to chance it?

>> It's not what we want, Captain Jones. is

what must be done.

>> All right, just as long as the professor

here knows what he's letting himself in

for.

>> We've arranged airplane contact to give

you a position on a king.

>> How they contact his clicker radio?

>> Who need is without risk? We've decided

cork drop is safest.

This contains your code

and this contains your schedule for

contacts.

>> Oh, just one more thing.

I want a clear-cut directive detailing

my specific authority.

>> You'll find it all in here, Captain. At

sea, you are in complete command. On

land, Professor Montel is in command.

May I wish you the best of luck.

>> Thanks.

Well, now's as good a time as any. Mr.

Newman, take her down to Periscope

Depth.

>> Yes, sir. Clear the bridge.

Dive.

Stand right over there. All right,

>> Gerard. Give me a hand.

>> Watch that top rug. It's murder.

>> Thank you.

>> You're welcome. You sit right here.

>> Dream satisfactory at Periscope.

>> Very well, Jono. Yes, sir.

>> Give Wells a hand with those starboard

engine blueprint translations, would

you?

>> I take of it, Captain.

>> Everything's tight before we drop your

room.

>> We're going to try our down deep. Have

all stations checked. Let me know.

>> I

This is that test we were talking about

today, Professor.

>> Now,

>> now

don't get nervous. If we crack up, you

won't get a chance to feel it. Take it

easy. It'll be all right. Put her on the

bottom, Mr. Newman.

>> Two degrees down bubble.

Flood negative.

>> Blood negative.

>> Oh, thanks J.

>> Coffee, professor.

>> No thanks.

>> How about you?

>> 200 ft. Copy. Dan

>> better. Hold on. Professor

All

right. Now, let's see if we can hit the

roof. Take her up. Mr. Newman,

>> close all memb.

>> Stand by to surface.

>> Stand by to surface.

>> Surface.

>> Surface.

All being valid all man.

>> What's with the airbags, holder?

>> Airbanks dry. Open the emergency banks.

Put them on the line.

>> They won't open.

>> They've got to open. We checked

everything.

>> All these signs are all fouled up. I

have to try every valve.

>> Wait a minute.

>> Jodo, come to the control room. Mnarly's

Japanese signs.

>> I can translate it. That one reads open

emergency airbank.

>> What?

>> Open emergency airbank.

>> Go ahead. Try it.

>> The bank's on the line. Good. Thanks.

>> Okay. Put her on the roof.

Skipper.

>> Yeah. Everything all right? Carpedo.

>> Just a few leaks around the stuffing

plants. I marked them.

>> Okay. Make a full sweep. Ski.

>> All clear. Skipper.

>> Rig for red. Up. Scope. Better move out.

Professor, this helps get our eyes used

to the dark when we go up.

Open the hatch holder.

>> You did a good job translating that

sign, doc.

>> Professor Gerard is molster

of oriental languages.

>> Oh,

nouns go.

Glad to have you aboard, Professor.

>> Glad to be aboard, Captain.

Captain,

>> the professor wants to know if it's all

right to come up with a fresh air.

>> Which one?

>> The one with the beard.

>> Oh, okay.

Come to course 355. A head full on both

engines.

>> I agree.

>> You won't need your umbrella, professor.

She's a dry boat.

It's nothing to worry about. Almost

everybody gets a touch of claustrophobia

first time down.

>> It's not claustrophobia, Captain. It's

the realization that at last our mission

has begun.

If anyone had told me 6 months ago that

today I would be on a submarine head for

Arctic waters in search of a secret

atomic base.

I just can't believe it.

>> Yeah, I know what you mean.

Well, uh, what about your assistant,

professor? What makes a girl who looks

like that get mixed up in science? She

comes from a family of scientists. She

was a child prodigy. At 14, she entered

college. At 18, she studied at Gutting.

She is really very brilliant.

>> A child prodigy with a body by fisher.

And this is the greatest pigbo boat in

the whole submarine service. The USS

Bowen. It's one we served on together.

Me, the chief, gunner, duck boat, and

the skipper.

Beautiful, ain't she?

>> Oh, yes. Very beautiful.

>> You know something else that's very

beautiful? All my life, I've been

wanting to find a girl called Denise.

>> Oski. I'm sure you will find her.

>> Oh, I found her. All right. You see, I

lost no time at all in learning your

first name. Yep. Denise. It's always

been my favorite name. I I never met a

Denise, but I always knew I would. You

see, from the moment I saw you, I said,

"Lafayette, I'm here."

>> That's right. I always knew I'd meet a

girl called Denise. D E N I.

>> Don't let him kid you, honey. I just

seen him put your lame on his arm. Look.

All right. B YOU

GENERAL.

>> That's what I mean by Jonas. They were

beefing over the dame.

>> Wasn't her fault. He's stiff.

>> She Okay.

>> Yeah. Just drift up a little.

>> Take care of you. Hold.

>> Oh, here. Let me help you, Professor.

>> See,

I'm really very sorry about this,

Professor. That drunk was a last minute

replacement. He's all right when we

sober.

>> I'm sorry.

This is the last thing I I wanted to

happen.

>> I'll have to break up sooner or later.

Have another look here.

So, lucky you still got your teeth.

Well, don't get nervous, Doc. Nobody's

going to bite you.

>> Don't you think the pharmacist should

treat me if it's necessary?

>> He's got his hands full with those two

lugs.

Besides, there's nothing he can do that

I can't, you know.

He got you so greasy.

Okay.

You know what a log is?

>> Yes,

>> you do. Huh? Well, I'm supposed to keep

a detailed report of everything that

happens.

It's for Mr. Fujimari. Mhm.

>> How'd it start?

I was working on a new formula when he

asked you if he could show me his chest.

>> Show you his chest.

>> Yes.

>> Oh, and then what?

>> Then he removed his shirt.

>> No kidding.

>> He wanted me to see his tattoo.

>> Oh, no.

>> It was a beautiful tattoo.

>> I bet it was

>> beautiful.

But the intoxicated one rubbed it off

>> naturally. Tell me uh he make a pass at

you.

>> A bus.

>> Did he try to kiss you?

>> Yes. And he did.

>> He did. Huh? Did you call cocky?

>> What?

>> Did you hit him?

>> Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Hold the

phone. Hold the phone. Now say that in

English.

>> I slapped him.

>> Yeah.

Uh, tell me, uh, you hit him after he

kissed you?

>> Yes.

>> Not before.

>> I do not understand.

>> Well, you see, professor, I I just want

to make sure my report is factual. I I

couldn't put that.

>> Is this report for Mr. Fujimoi or for

you?

>> No, really. The child prodigy ought to

be able to figure that one out. Don't

you think?

>> Yes.

>> Yes.

>> Oh, professor.

>> Now listen to me.

I don't want any more pee. You

understand?

If I hear of anybody making a play for

that girl, I'll personally shoot him out

through torpedo tube number one.

>> Captain, is it still a secret where

we're going?

>> We're tailing a freighter to an island

in the North Pacific.

>> Going to sinker.

>> We're going to sneak into this island,

take a look, and sneak out. This is a

scientific expedition.

>> Yeah, but Skipper, what are we looking

for?

>> Fourleaf clovers.

>> What? What if the guys on the island

don't like us?

Look, I know you're all itching for a

little action, but you'll only get it if

we have to defend ourselves. So, relax.

Fore

excuse

>> maybe I show you.

Mhm.

>> Henry

was the had enough.

>> Just wonderful. Thank you.

>> Vu

cigarettes.

>> What?

>> I'm speaking French.

>> Oh,

>> vu cigarette.

>> Oh, you mean

cigarette?

>> That's what I said.

>> No f.

>> No, no, no. You have to form your lips

like this. F.

F.

Fe.

>> I think I better go now. Thank you.

>> You know, someday I'm going to find out

what color her eyes are.

>> Good morning, Captain Jones. You wanted

to see me?

>> Why did you let me sleep through that

plane contact?

>> I thought you needed a rest. You were on

duty for almost 20 hours.

Didn't you stop to think how important

that message might be?

>> Of course. So, I made sure that it was

not by decoding it myself.

As you see,

it reports only that the Kangqing has

made no change in speed or course. I

knew that was of no importance.

>> Professor, did it ever occur to you that

I might be steering a course to be?

You've lost us approximately two hours.

I'm very sorry, Captain.

I think I have learned something.

>> I hope so.

>> If you want to listen in on

conversations, use the intercom. It's

easier.

>> That conversation I would prefer not to

have heard, but I was waiting to see

you.

>> Okay, you see me? I'm busy.

>> Many years have I been with Professor

Montel, but never before have I heard

anyone speak like you to the greatest

scientist in his field.

>> Professor Montel's field isn't

commanding a screw ball submarine. Mine

is.

>> If such rudess is necessary, I hope this

will be a very short cruise.

>> What do you want to see me about?

Jodto.

>> Yes, sir.

>> In the future, when a message comes into

this boat, I get it. No matter who says

it's unnecessary, you understand?

>> Yes, sir.

Captain Jones. No, no, no.

This time he was right.

Maybe we can on the bridge.

>> Sure. Help yourself.

>> Contact plane approaching on schedule.

>> Good enough.

Okay, Charlie.

There it is.

This one's for you, Doc. Intelligence

reports Kangqing carrying unconventional

type 61J capsule signed. Fujimorei.

What's a 61J capsule?

>> Charged to explode an A bomb.

>> Hey, skipper. Radar shows surface object

approaching varying 355°

>> speed.

>> I can't tell yet, but he's closing fast.

>> Range

>> 3,800 y.

>> Maybe the freight has seen our signal

and comes after us.

>> Rick B.

the subs after us.

>> A sub? I thought this was a a scientific

expedition.

>> It is. And we're going to play it safe.

No use getting a bloody nose unless we

have to.

She's submerged and listening for us.

That's why she stopped pinging.

>> What does this mean?

>> It means she's saving her torpedoes,

waiting till we surface.

Just one more day, Doc, and we'd have

finished overhauling those torpedo

tubes.

>> Can you see her scope?

>> No.

Well, we can play possum, too.

>> How's the hydrogen?

>> Build up to 3%.

We can't chance surfacing here. We've

got to make a run for it. Professor, I

think you both better stay in your

quarters.

>> Down.

is still in our stern. Skipper,

>> how's that hydrogen gas?

>> 4% stability.

Take her up.

>> Okay, Charlie.

You better keep off the bridge,

professor.

>> I am not going up.

>> Skipper blow his top if he even find you

here in a control room.

Sit down, professor. Grab some air.

>> Have you identified the submarine?

>> No, we haven't even seen her yet.

They're topside trying to spot her now.

>> No sign of her yet, Skipper.

>> Sonar tells us she's not far. Alert the

gun crew.

>> What?

>> I know we're not looking for trouble,

but we'd be fools not to protect

ourselves.

Alert for battle stations.

>> Gun crew. Stand by to man the deck gun.

>> What about these torpedoes?

>> You know those tubes haven't been

checked. Forget the torpedoes.

>> Where is she now? Jello.

>> Range 1500.

>> Either she's moving out or she's going

to surface.

>> There she is. Skipper.

They're coming out on deck. Ask them

where we are, Charlie.

>> Why not man the 5 now?

>> No. The minute they spot a crew near

that gun, they'll throw torpedoes at us.

>> What are they saying? They want to know

who we are and what we're doing here.

Tell them we're a private scientific

expedition headed for the attic.

They insist on boarding us. Well, keep

stalling. Tell them we don't understand.

Ask them to repeat the message

out.

>> Put one over our bow. Keep asking him to

repeat, Charlie.

Turn our nose into her. Stair 0001.

And get ready to man that gun.

Keep clear of the lifeline.

Right. Full rudder.

Dark.

Clear the deck. Clear the deck. Die.

Please

MY HAND. MY HAND.

My hand.

>> GIVE ME A KNIFE.

>> NO. NO. NO.

>> Come on.

>> It's his thumb.

>> All right. Get them ALL BELOW.

>> HEY, YOU GUYS. COME ON UP HERE. GIVE ME

YOUR HAIR QUICK.

We ship too much water. Can't hold it

Hey J.

>> I lost her.

Nothing out of her now. No sound.

What do you think, Skipper?

>> I think she's pulling the same trick we

are.

now. Watch that salt water. We don't

want any chlorine gas in the boat.

Captain, this hot heat is killing us.

>> We got to turn on the fans.

>> They hurt our fans. You wouldn't have to

worry about the heat killing you, boy.

All right, I'll fill in the picture for

you quick. We got torpedoes, but our

tubes aren't in commission to fire them.

The red subs parked on the bottom like

we are, waiting to pick us up on sonar.

Once she does, she'll throw more fish at

us. So, it's a question of who can hold

on longer without air, the Reds or us.

If we break first,

chances are it'll be our last break.

And we're loaded with hydrogen.

It's bible to explode.

But we got one thing in our favor. We

can save oxygen by shutting up.

That's all.

Nothing.

Nothing.

We got to save juice.

Shifter red.

Keep your ears open. Okay.

I am sorry, Captain,

for being so stupid.

>> Sorry. Save your breath.

>> You had to use the knife.

If you didn't close the hatch,

we would all be dead.

You're beaten.

You better get back to your bunk and

take it easy. Come on.

I want to tell you

He's in a bad way. I thought that hypo

was going to do the trick, but he's

suffering from shot and loss of blood.

If you don't get some air right away,

you're going to have only one professor

for Cargo.

There's 50 grand in that bunk.

50 grand is worth a little air.

Zotto, turn on the white lights.

Boys, I'm going to try a long shot.

If her first couple of torpedoes miss

us, we got a chance. I'd rather pass out

without air than have a torpedo come

plowing through us.

Now, when we start the pump, we're

liable to get a spark.

Maybe it'll burn off the hydrogen. Maybe

it won't.

If it doesn't,

we'll blow up so fast you'll never feel

it.

Good luck to all of us.

>> Got everything straight? Yes, sir.

Now, here's where we find out if we've

lived right

No more chance of explosion. Pass a word

along and build up the turn slowly. Hold

>> You're wasting your time, Junior.

>> Hi.

>> Hello. say uh if that music disturbs

you, I could have it turned off.

>> Oh, no. I I love music.

>> That

>> Mhm.

>> Well, how's the hand, Professor?

>> Wonderful, Captain As you see.

>> Good. Glad to hear it.

>> How are you, Professor?

>> I'm fine, thank you.

>> Well, you know what?

>> Captain Jones, come outside, please.

Freight land.

>> Excuse me.

B shot.

I don't understand. Our intelligence

report cannot be this wrong. All we are

getting is a normal count.

>> You ought to be happy.

>> Don't misunderstand. Nothing would

please me more than to know that our

suspicions are unfounded.

>> Then let's move out. There's nothing

here but this two big garrison and some

beat up storage tanks.

>> It's a great pity I cannot talk to them.

We are worlds apart. After all, they are

human.

>> Let's go.

>> Let's move.

>> Forget it. Shot right through the head.

Let's get out of here.

STEVE, TRY TO KNOCK OUT THAT LIGHT.

No

heat.

All

right, come on. Let's get out of here.

You yelling dogs.

Come on, Ski. Give me a hand. Let's get

him in the boat. If you wanted to talk

to one of these humans, I got one for

you.

Wipe down your coats.

Well, they must be combing the whole

area for us, but so far nothing, huh?

>> Not even a seagull. Hey, Doug Book. You

sure this jelly I'm rubbing on my chest

won't eat off my tattoo?

>> What are you worried about? You can

always get another.

>> Are you nuts? That's my piece to

resistance.

>> Your pista what?

>> That's French. I've been practicing

messy pots.

>> You need more practice.

>> Captain Jones. Professor Montel wants to

see you in sick bay.

>> One.

>> No. Oh, no. Thank you, Jimmy. Thank you.

>> Jimmy,

>> this is wonderful.

>> You want to see me, Professor?

>> Yes. Denise has just translated his

orders. His name is Hosen. He's a pilot

on route to Kevl Island for special

duty.

>> So, what?

>> Kevl must be the island Captain Taylor

photographed.

>> How do you figure that?

>> An Air Force pilot would hardly be

assigned to duty on an island without an

air strip. And as you know, Kevlook is

the only island indicated by name in

this entire chain. It appears to be due

north of our present position.

>> And what do you suggest we do about it?

>> It seems to me our course is obvious.

>> Not in my book, Doc.

>> What do you mean?

>> I mean, you said once that each man's

got his own reason for living and his

own price for dying. Well, my reason for

living is 50 grand. I'm not sticking my

neck out again. Is one neck that

important, Captain?

>> It is when it's mine.

>> What kind of man are you?

>> Hold it. Hold it. Let's not gang up with

a lot of double talk.

I'm a businessman. Maybe to a couple of

flag waiverss like you. I'm a mercenary.

All right. But I lived up to my part of

the contract. The deal was to tail the

freigher to the island, put you ashore,

and get you back to Tokyo. Nobody said

anything about a second island. So, as

far as I'm concerned, mission completed.

We're going home.

Any objections?

>> Yes.

I hate to use authority,

but if I have to, I will.

I didn't want it to come to this.

But as long as you have mentioned the

contract, study it closely, Captain. You

will find a paragraph stating that I and

I alone

shall determine when the mission is

finished.

And in my book, Captain, the mission

will be finished after I am taken to

Kevlock, given the chance to examine the

island,

and return to Tokyo.

>> Joro.

>> Yes, sir. Head due north.

>> Did you say north?

>> You heard me. Set a new course for

Kevlock Island. It's on your chart.

>> Yes, sir.

made.

Hello. The final. Hello.

>> Okay, doc. Let's go.

>> What's the matter?

my knee.

>> Well, I thought you said it was okay

this morning. It

>> was. I'll manage in a few moments.

>> Not a chance. You'll just be in the way.

>> We'll improve by tomorrow. I'm sure.

>> Sorry, Doc. We're not hanging around

these waters that long. This is a powder

cake.

Oh, wait, wait a minute. Wait a minute.

What's going on? What are you talking

about?

Captain Jones,

my assistant will accompany you.

>> What?

>> She has sufficient training to compute

figures, determine strengths, and

identify elements, if there are any on

this island.

>> You mean you'd you'd let her go?

>> With the exception of me, Professor

Gerard is the only member of this

expedition capable of performing this

task.

>> Oh, you're both crazy. Take her ashore

and follow her instructions as you would

have followed mine.

>> She is not going and that's final.

>> You still cannot take an order, can you,

Captain John?

>> And what's behind that crack?

>> Exactly what you think is behind it.

Ski, you stay here. Keep your eyes open.

>> What about her? I can carry her

equipment.

>> She can take care of her own equipment.

Heat.

Heat.

Take a look down there.

Looks like a bunch of doors.

>> I'm afraid we have found what we were

looking for.

A gag reaction like this can mean only

one thing.

>> This figure

What are they saying?

>> They are looking for Long.

A missing soldier.

We got to stay put till they move out.

Come on.

What did you mean when you said I still

can't take an order?

>> Your record, Captain. In the war, you

were a very good officer, except for one

thing.

>> Go on. I'm fascinated.

You could give orders,

but you couldn't take them.

>> Now, look, I

I know what you're talking about, but if

you want to know what makes a guy tick,

you've got to look beyond the record.

Those Philippine gorillas were cut off

and surrounded. They had to have

ammunition and supplies. I couldn't just

sit there in my can and let them die. I

knew the waters were mine, but I figured

I could get in, get out without a

scratch.

So, I wrote my own orders.

I lost my sub 26 men.

And if I had to, I'd do it again.

I'm sorry.

Very sorry.

It was wrong of me then to mention it.

>> Forget it. It's all over.

You all right?

>> Fine.

>> When this is over if we get back,

what gives with you?

>> Gives?

>> I mean, what are you going to do?

Go back to Paris, I suppose. Huh?

>> Paris is my home.

>> Yeah.

And you when this is over, what gives it

new?

>> I don't know.

>> Have you ever been in Paris?

>> No, never.

>> You would love it.

Americans always do.

But we can't stay here.

If they hold us up till morning, we

might never get back.

I'm going to see if there's another way

out of here. Come on.

You stay here. I'll be right back.

Here.

You won't need this, but sometimes the

sight of us a comfort. Be back in a

minute.

Heat. Heat.

Let them fall.

Then fall.

Hi Sha.

Nice hum.

Y

Denise,

come on. Let's get out of here.

Come on.

Hurry up. Come on.

Who's it?

Come on,

let's go.

This confirms our worst fears. The

atomic reaction is unmistakable.

>> I don't get it. I mean, I can't figure

out why that bomber was on the runway.

What would a B29 be doing on a red air

base?

>> This doesn't make sense.

>> Say, didn't you tell me that that red

officer we picked up on the other island

was in the Air Force?

>> Yes, a major.

>> Were you ever able to question him?

>> Impossible. I tried, but you would not

say a word.

>> Oh, thanks. Hey, did you talk to that

Chinese prisoner, Chinley?

He has not seen the prisoner. The

prisoner has not seen him.

>> Holder,

dig up that portable microphone and

plant it in a torpedo room. Then get the

prisoner and lock him in there. Make

sure he doesn't see the microphone.

>> Give him a hand. Ski, come on. Let's get

into some dried clothes. We got work to

do.

>> You have a plan?

>> I'm going to find out what this is all

about. Come on, Shin Lee. We got a job

for you. Let's go.

You guys got everything set?

>> Yep.

>> Okay.

Now, you're sure Chin Lee understands

exactly what he's supposed to say, huh?

>> What'd he say?

>> He says he would do anything for you.

>> He wants you to strike him in the face

to make it look more real.

>> Hold it.

He wants you to do it.

He says it will not hurt if you do it.

>> You all right, boy? You okay?

What's he saying? He says

the prisoner is very intelligent

and must be fooled.

He wants you to hit him

harder.

Sorry, pal.

All right, get him out. Let's go

here. Come on. Take

You don't lie.

for you.

Put your body on.

This is incredible. What's it all about,

Skipper?

>> This is the screw ball plot of all time.

They're going to drop an atomic bomb on

Korea or Manuria and blame it on us.

They're taking off tomorrow at dawn in

that madeover bomber.

Okay.

>> He found him out.

Now listen to me.

I'm shoving off for the island alone.

I'll park myself right here around the

mouth of this cave. You'll submerge half

mile beyond the runway right around

here. So you'll be able to spot my

signal.

Now, a heavy load of fuel is going to

bring that bomber out low. So, when I

give you the signal, too short, too

long, too short, that'll mean the

plane's taking off. That'll give you

just time enough to surface and fire.

I want every gun in action. That means

everybody.

That plane has to be knocked out of the

sky.

Now, the minute you hit it, crash dive

to the bottom and stay there because

everything's going to break loose when

that bomber hits.

There's a cove at the north end right

here. That's where I'll hide. Tomorrow

night at 10 sharp, I'll give you three

short blinkers. Pick me up. If I don't

show up, shove off, head for home.

>> Any questions?

>> I forbid this insanity.

>> Forbid all you want to, Professor. That

plane is not going to make it. If it is

dreadful enough to bring back the

terrifying report that our suspicions

are confirmed,

but we cannot take it upon ourselves to

commit an act of war, no matter how we

feel. We are civilians.

I am responsible for this expedition.

I order you to take this submarine back

to Tokyo.

>> I don't care about you and your

expedition. There's an enemy bomber out

there made up to look like an American

bomber. It's going to drop the biggest

egg in history and we're going to take

the wrap for it. I don't like that. So

from now on, professor, this is my

expedition.

>> SKIPPER,

THE BOAT'S GONE.

WHAT?

>> The boat's gone. Montel took it.

>> Well, why didn't you stop it?

>> We didn't get the chance.

>> He was on deck with it. Before we knew

what happened, he was in the boat and

gone.

>> Where's the girl on the bridge?

>> Please. He doesn't want you to stop him.

>> Why didn't you stop him? All you had to

do was yell.

>> He knows your plan. He'll carry it out.

That's his orders.

>> The trouble with you geniuses. Full of

big ideas. Now you're following up the

whole works. You know that island's

crawling with soldiers. He knows it,

too.

>> Then why'd you let a nice old guy like

that take a shortcut to the cemetery?

He's no ordinary two bit professor. You

know, he's Montel, top man in his field,

but he's old and helpless. Doesn't know

his way outside of a test tube. You

ought to know that you were close enough

with him. What kind of A WOMAN ARE YOU?

Got

>> my father.

>> What?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Sorry.

>> He said

it was his place to go.

Not you.

>> I'm sorry.

She sure got a lot of guts. Only thing I

can't figure out is why the big mystery.

Why didn't she let us know he's her old

man?

>> Well, that's what you have to pay for

having a famous father. She's been on a

spot all her life. Wanted to make good

on her own, and she did.

And he was proud because she did.

Any sign of him at all?

>> No,

not yet.

There he is.

And there's his signal.

>> Battle surface. Gun action. Down slope.

We better get below.

>> Jeez.

>> Okay.

All right, Ski, let's go.

Come on, Willie. To do, get up here.

Hurry it up. Hurry it up.

Fire.

Heat. Heat.

Heat.

Heat.

You all right?

>> Oh, that bomb must have gone off under

us.

>> Bring her back on course. Take her up to

periscope depth.

>> Periscope depth.

>> All compartments report damage and

casualties.

The bomber didn't crash in the ocean.

It hit the island.

That's for

each man has his own reason for living,

Mr.

And his own price for dying.
