All language subtitles for 01 Man from Atlantis

[Thunder crashing]

[Wind howling]

[Thunder crashing]

[Waves crashing]

Kelly, come on. Come on, Kelly.

[Barking]

[Instrumental music]

[Gasping]

Jody.

'Go up to the house
and call an ambulance.'

[Gasping]

(Female #1) 'Do I
see some friendlies?'

- we're friendlies.
- Hop in, please.

Come inside and help
get the party started.

Oh, do we need some lively
young people in here, come on.

Oh, I'm sorry this
is such a bore.

- I like service parties.
- Well, I don't.

If I'm not working,
I'd rather be diving.

You know, I start to get
withdrawal symptoms

if I'm out of the
water too long.

Can that be your only hobby?

What else is there?

Duty calls, come on.

- What's up?
- Found him on a beach.

Out cold, drowning maybe.

We got him tubed and pumped
up to a 100 percent oxygen.

Just tryin' to get
him ventilated here.

'BP, uh, palpable at 70.'

'pulse, a 150 but thready.'

- oh, he really looks cyanotic.
- Yeah.

Well, let's get a
couple lines going.

I want cbp in the central line.

I need a 16 Gauge central cath.

And I want a
peripheral line with, uh

two ounce of
dopamine and 500 d-5.

Uh, start the drip
at 30 a minute.

That oughta bring him up.

Let's get a portable chest
and get the EKG checked.

He's vomiting. Been
any vomiting or blood?

- No, no.
- You pumped him out?

Yeah, he had a little water
in him but he's clear right now.

I checked the tube, there's
no obstruction or broken teeth.

He might have a
possible skull trauma there.

Looks like he got bumped
on the head or somethin'.

Did you check his eyes?

- No.
- Then he could have od'd.

Uh, you better give him a
liter of saline and open it wide.

Right.

Uh, and I need
his skull's series.

- And his skull series.
- How 'bout his eyes?

His eyes, are they
contracted, d-dilated, what?

- Mid-point.
- Okay.

Uh, let's push 0.2 narcan,
just be on the safe...

Doctor? They're funny.

I see what you mean.

Hey, what's this?

Let's keep him alive first.

[Indistinct chatter]

(Male #1) 'Alright,
let's get it in him.'

[indistinct chatter]

Uh, Dr. Berkley,
telephone. This way.

Keep it lively, kid.

How are all the frogs and dogs?

Oh, got promoted to dolphins.

How about you?

- You wanna get out of here?
- Can't.

Occupied.

How are you, Phil?

I'm fine.

(Man on phone) 'The analysis
says a high degree of desiccation.'

- what? It says what?
- 'Desiccation.'

- oh, come on.
- 'I know, it sounds crazy.'

'but that's what the
lungs look like to me.'

okay, I'll be right there.

[Indistinct chatter]

Watch his iv over here.

Now, make sure he's strapped in.

- I got it.
- Come on, people. Come on.

Okay. I'm shooting.

(Female #2) 'Yeah,
they're on the way.'

(female #3) 'You know,
he's still dehydrated.'

(male #1) 'Yeah, and
he's still not breathing.'

then I started thinking about
the Navy and the budget

and all the things I really
wanted to accomplish.

- Crazy stuff like that.
- Excuse me.

Elizabeth, I'm sorry.
There's an emergency.

A man seems to have
forgotten how to breathe.

- Can I put you in a cab or..
- Forgotten how to breathe?

- Interesting.
- Mind if I tag along?

Let's go.

Elizabeth? Can I talk to you?

Uh, Phil, we're sort of rushed.

Just for a minute.

I'm sorry but there's
been an emergency.

'Could you make our
excuses to the boss?'

okay. Sure.

I'm really sorry.

Oh, congratulations.

- Who's that?
- Phil roth.

He just got the
command of sea quest.

The Navy's new super
research submersible

and I guess he
wanted to talk about it.

Doug, you're not
gonna believe this.

- Doctor? Are you staff?
- Navy.

They can't get a decent
portable chest, can they?

Order one of this.

I did, you're looking at them.

This guy's have it, I'm afraid.

Question is, how did he
walk around the streets

with lungs like that?

Why isn't he sweating?

I don't think that'll make
too much a difference.

Can you get a skin biopsy?

We'd have to move him to county.

I'm afraid no one can offer much

to someone with
desiccated lungs like that.

- If that's what they are.
- 'I beg your pardon?'

was he found anywhere
near the ocean?

Yes, he was.

Doug, I wanna bronch him.

Are you sure you wouldn't
just like to go back to the party?

Doug, I wanna bronch him.

I'm looking into the base
of the left bronchial branch.

Getting down into the lung stem.

Now, I can see..

Elizabeth?

- Call an ambulance.
- Elizabeth, what is it?

If I told you, you
wouldn't believe it.

- Just call an ambulance.
- Look.

If you've got a
theory, let's have it.

The man is dying. I
know how to save him.

Now, g-get those lights off
and get the tubes out of him.

We can't just
release him to you.

It's twelve feet to that door.

Either you're going to
help me get him out of here

or I'm gonna do it myself.

Doctor, we can't
just let him go.

Well, doctor, I am taking him.

You heard the lady.

[Sirens wailing]

Ma'am, where are we going?

The fast way to the ocean.

[Gasping]

[Tires screeching]

[Wailing continues]

[Tires screeching]

[Dramatic music]

[Gasping]

[Music continues]

I'll take him now.

[Instrumental music]

Come on, breathe.

'Breathe.'

'Come on, breathe.'

[Music continues]

[Instrumental music]

(Elizabeth) After two weeks,
he was able to leave the pool

for short periods.

And we began
physiological studies.

The evidence shows
a humanoid being

only marginally
equipped for life on land.

As tests indicate his
eyes to be light sensitive

we have prepared a pair
of dichroic glasses for him.

'He tires easily. Any physical
exertion will exhaust him.'

in addition, we find
that within 12 hours

out of the water, actual
physical deterioration begins.

The first signs of
which, are the prominent

discoloration of
the extremities.

Within 16 to 20 hours

if not returned to a
water environment

'the subject will suffer
extensive skin cracking'

pulmonary insufficiency,
cardiac arrest

and finally, death. However...

Doctor, uh, perhaps you
could finish off with the technical

side of this presentation.
Uh, the admiral...

The admiral's doing
just fine, Ainsley.

Go on, doctor,
and take your time.

However, in the water, a
different picture emerges.

He appears to be perfectly
adapted to aquatic life

'displaying great
strength and agility.'

the chest cavity has
Gill-like membranes

in place of normal lung tissue.

Skin appears humanoid but
with dolphin characteristics.

- No keratin layer in his skin?
- None.

Eyes are cat-like in action.

'Able to see at ocean depths
in almost total darkness.'

where are you keeping him?

At the moment,
he's in the testing lab.

He's quite docile
and co-operative.

And he's becoming as curious
about us as we are about him.

Alright, you can stop..

He hasn't spoken yet, though
he's obviously teachable

and has vocal equipment.

I have the impression that
he understands a good deal

but chooses not to speak.

Psychologically, he appears
cool and calm at all times.

'If he has emotions,
he conceals them.'

[Honking]

What are you, a Turkey?
You just get off the boat!

- 'What's wrong with you?'
- 'Freak!'

(Female #4) 'May I
take your order, please?'

'may I take your order, please?'

[honking]

'May I take your order, please?'

'your order, please.'

his diet is kelp and plankton.

As for his origins, well, he's
given us very little to go on.

[Tires screeching]

[Honking]

(Male #2) 'Watch it, you nut!'

(male #3) 'Hey, you silly
fool, get out of the street.'

(male #4) 'Hey,
what are you doin'?'

[Phone ringing]

(Female #5) 'One moment,
please, for the overtime charges.'

'that will be one dollar.'

'hello?'

'is this the party that placed'

'the call to Seattle,
Washington?'

'Hello?'

'is anyone there? This
is the operator. Hello?'

'operator, is anyone
there? Hello?'

non verbal associative tests
indicate possible amnesia.

So, we took every scrap
of information we had

and fed it to the wrw-12000
at the defense department.

And the computer
sent back an answer.

[Instrumental music]

(Elizabeth) 'We're not sure
what that means, and quite frankly'

we don't know if there
are any more like him.

But we do know we have

the absolute obligation
to protect him.

While we are finding out
everything we can about him.

Doctor... I've got several
pieces of underwater hard work

put together by the best

scientific geniuses
in the country.

They lift 2,000 tons from
a depth of 20,000 feet.

Track a target in the
ocean six miles down.

Take divers down to
a depth of 3,500 feet

and bring 'em back up again.

Can your man do as well?

I'm not sure. We haven't
had the money to find out.

Well, you have it now.

And now, I think I'd
like to meet this fellow.

Of course.

He's.. I-I looked everywhere.

But he's gone.

[Intense music]

Mark!

Mark, why did you..

Uh, this is admiral Pierce.

'He's come here from
Washington to meet you.'

'he's a very important
man, he's going to help you.'

we call him Mark Harris.

How are you, son?

I wanna know his speed,
agility, strength and stamina.

Start testing right away.

The admiral wants me to
help keep an eye on him.

Uh, lieutenant, what is the
admiral's primary interest?

National defense.

[Instrumental music]

[Cawing]

[Upbeat music]

[Music continues]

[Music continues]

[Blows whistle]

[Instrumental music]

Put him under pressure.

We're ready.

Okay, Mark.

[Beeping]

He's at 15,000 feet.

[Beeping continues]

Take him to 20.

Mark, we're gonna take
you down to 20,000 feet.

[Crackling]

'We're taking you
down to 25,000 feet.'

Holy mackerel.

Thirty thousand feet.

[Crackling]

[Instrumental music]

Good morning, doctor.

The admiral has
a job for your fish.

- His name is Mark Harris.
- Dr. Merrill.

Two weeks ago, we lost sea quest

at the bottom of
the Mariana trench.

'I need your man to find
it and help us recover it'

'with the bodies of the crew.'

did you say sea quest?

She wasn't told?

With commander roth?

Perhaps, you'd like
to sit down, doctor.

No, I'm fine.

You were saying, admiral?

It'll be a secret mission
with the appropriate cover.

Well, by the way, all
information regarding

project Atlantis, including
your man's existence

is now classified.

It's better for
us, safer for him.

What happened to sea quest?

Went to lay down a
package of seismic probes

fell off the scope
of 36,000 feet.

Most advanced technology we own.

One of a kind, now it's lost.

Surely, you've
tried to locate it.

Sent down a lot of
expensive hardware

but we still haven't found it.

We're gonna have to use your
man to get a handle on it quickly.

He'll be under
escort and tethered

while he's in the water.

I'm sorry, admiral,
but Mark Harris

is not a piece of hardware.

That's why I'm asking
you to handle him for me.

Admiral, I think
it would be best

if you made your
request to Mark himself.

Doctor, I think I
understand your feelings.

Good morning, sir.

Hey!

Hey!

[Water splashing]

Look here, you know who this is?

- This is the...
- It's okay, Ainsley.

Lieutenant Ainsley tells me

that you didn't
understand my orders, son.

'What was it you
didn't understand?'

well, let me explain
it to you again.

Wednesday, you leave on a ship.

'Then you go into the ocean.'

you help us find a piece of
equipment that we've lost.

Then you come right back.

You understand?

'I think I better explain it
to you a little differently.'

all this is my responsibility.

I look after it for
the government

and the people.

[Instrumental music]

I help defend the country.

Country. Our country.

'And I give orders.'

orders are when
people older and wiser

tell us what to do

we do it.

That's how we get things
done, by obeying orders.

And as long you're here,
you'll have to obey orders too.

'You understand?'

[music continues]

Better not.

Ainsley!

Stop! I order you to stop.

You heard the lieutenant,
you've got an order to stop!

Keep him away from the water!

Alright, buddy,
now just take it easy.

Ah!

[Grunts]

(Pierce) 'The water. Keep
him away from the water.'

get him off! Cut across,
don't let him out of the pier.

- Stay in front him.
- Come on!

[Grunting]

Ah!

Hold it! Hold it!

[Indistinct yelling]

Take it easy. Don't
hurt him. Take it easy.

[Grunting]

Mark!

(Elizabeth) Mark!

Mark, the admiral came
to see me yesterday.

He wants to know if you'll
help him recover the submarine.

As a favor to him,
not an order, a favor.

'I would like you to stay too.'

but not like this. Only
because you wanted to.

Do you understand?

[Sighs]

Mark, I'm going to try
to talk to the admiral.

'To get an agreement
between the two of you.'

will you trust me?

That way, you both
get what you want.

Mark finds your sub,
you let him go home.

Doctor, if he's suffering
from amnesia, as you reported

going home seems unlikely.

Medical science can't determine
the duration of his amnesia.

But one thing is certain, Mark
wants to return to the ocean.

He wants to be free.

And with no tether line?

I'm sure he won't
go in the water with it.

You'll have to trust him.

- And with one supervisor, you?
- I'm the only one he trusts.

Doctor, you better be right.

This is the submarine
that went down.

Mark?

There were two men on board.
Commanders Hendrix and roth.

'You find us the sub and
the bodies of the men'

and I'll consider your request.

It's not a request,
admiral. It's a deal or it's...

Yes, doctor.

This man has a name, Mark
Harris, and he has rights!

I know his name
and I know his rights

and I don't need any
rudder orders from you!

Yes.

I say yes to the admiral.

[Instrumental music]

I say yes.

[Ship horn blaring]

How you doin'? Welcome
aboard the oak river.

One of you must be Dr. Merrill.

Elizabeth merrill.

Well, I'm Ernie
Smith, master diver.

- Mark Harris.
- Hey.

We're gonna be divin' buddies.

So, you're gonna be
runnin' the show, huh?

- That's right.
- Hey, good deal.

Well, come on, let's go meet
the officer in charge Mr. Johnson.

Come on, follow me.

[Indistinct announcement on pa]

Well, let's see
what we have here.

As I understand it,
Ernie is going to take

Mr. Harris down on the platform

and, uh, he's
going in at 200 feet.

What sort of rig are you using?

Uh, Mr. Harris will be
testing some new equipment.

A re-breathing turtle pack
with self-heating neuro light suit.

Yeah. Well, we still kinda
like our old Kirby morgans.

But then we could be a
little old-fashioned there.

What do you think, chief?

Well, keeps their
tails from getting

caught in the cracks.

You have tails?

Yeah, they put 'em in the
same time they put in the gills.

I see.

Oh, these divers
and their jokes.

Oh, by the way, doctor,
my orders show that

Mr. Harris isn't going
to use a tether line.

- I take it, that's not a joke.
- Correct.

Nobody steps off 200
feet without a tether.

Well, Mr. Harris does.

This new equipment
requires exceptional freedom.

Now, are there
any other problems?

Alright, I suppose you know
the area you'll be working

is close to the spot where
the sea quest went down.

We know.

And where the Russian
research sub was lost last year.

No, I didn't.

And a French sub went
down there about a year ago.

'It's a very dangerous
part of the world.'

[instrumental music]

This is our deck d
compression chamber.

Deep diving system
Mark two mod zero.

You wanna see who's on
TV? Come on, watch your step.

- Is that one of your divers?
- That's right.

- How deep does he go?
- Seven, eight hundred feet.

And when he comes
up, you put him in there?

Yeah, sure, for
a couple of days.

It's better to
have gills like you.

Are you giving me the razz?

- 'Rather put my head on this... '
- hey, popeye!

Where's the five you owe me?

Where's the broad
you owe me, you yo-yo?

This is popeye, big as
an ox and twice as smart.

Now, this is, uh.. I'm sorry,
what's your name again?

- Mark Harris.
- Mark Harris.

He's a civilian diver.

Gonna walk off the stage
over by Harmony Ridge

and, uh, very
good with the razz.

How 'bout some coffee?

Harmony Ridge,
uh, isn't that the place

where we heard those
funny sonar blips, remember?

- Yeah, yeah, the signals.
- What signals?

Oh, yeah, those, sure,
those funny signals.

'Right. That's right.'

yeah, I wonder what
could've caused them.

Sea monsters!

[Laughing]

There are no sea
monsters in the place

you call the trench.

Well, I don't know.
36,000 feet down.

How do you know?

I have been there.

[Laughing]

I like him.

Are we close to your home, Mark?

You still remember nothing

about where in the
ocean you come from?

Perhaps, when I am deep
in the ocean, I will remember.

Perhaps, when you're
deep in the ocean

'you'll forget about us.'

no.

Mark, I want you
to look at something.

This is a miniature transponder

and it sends signals
through the water.

Tomorrow, I want
you to swallow it.

So wherever you go in the
ocean, we'll be able to follow you.

No, it's not that
we don't trust you.

We just wanna keep track
of you for your own safety.

(Man on pa) 'Go to
your stations, all special'

'sea and anchor detail.'

[Machine whirring]

(Man on pa) 'Muster all
divers from the diving station.'

[Indistinct announcement]

[Machine whirring]

[Instrumental music]

[Music continues]

Transponder capsule reads
five by five at 0847 hours.

Program for tracking, optimum.

Okay, Ernie, all systems go.

(Ernie on transponder)
'Fine, all systems go.'

[Music continues]

You're coming up on 150.

[Instrumental music]

'You're coming up on 200.'

okay, Ernie, you're on station.

Okay, we're hanging
loose at 200 feet.

We're gonna go take a
little walk around. Come on.

Ernie, I have to explain
something to you.

The special equipment Mark has

is more special
than we've told you.

'It will allow him to go much
deeper than anyone knows.'

okay.

Actually, the whole
matter is highly classified.

Then don't tell me.

You've gotta know, Ernie,
because soon you're gonna see..

Don't tell me nothin'. I
don't wanna know nothin'.

Look, he's a terrific guy.

Whatever he's had done
to him is okay with me.

He's my..

Friend.

[Instrumental music]

[Music continues]

[Music continues]

[Music continues]

[Music continues]

He's on the bottom, Ernie.

Thirty-six thousand
feet. Seven miles.

[Squeaking]

[Beeping]

Ernie, there's something else.

[Dramatic music]

[Beeping]

[Music continues]

[Music continues]

[Music continues]

He's gone.

[Instrumental music]

[Music continues]

[Speaking in foreign language]

Did you expect
something like that?

This is fantastic.

(Female #6) 'What
a beautiful day.'

(man on pa) 'Welcome.'

'as per your
briefing instructions'

'please proceed to
the changing rooms.'

'then follow corridor 14
to the reception desk.'

'we are happy to
have you with us.'

[speaking in foreign language]

(Female #6) Fantastic.

Do I look like a grumpy driver?

Oh, madame.

- Tres Jolie.
- Merci.

Sure gonna miss
the world series.

Well, it's a better
life than missiles.

- Corridor 14.
- After you.

[Speaking in foreign language]

[Indistinct chatter]

Professor, what do you think?

Oh, look at this
oriented statues.

Missiles, you bet it's
better than missiles.

[Indistinct chatter]

- Would you like to go to in?
- Oh, yes. This is amazing.

I thought this country
was in the loop, professor.

[Indistinct chatter]

Looks very real to me.

Good morning.

- Good morning.
- How are you?

(Female #7) 'Would you
like to register please?'

- oh, certainly.
- Certainly.

- Pen.
- Yes. Thank you.

And would you care to
put on your color-coded

identification bracelets?

You'll find them
very helpful here.

Where is Mr. Schubert?

He's rather busy this morning.

But, he'll see you.
After the orientation.

Ha. My very own Mickey mouse.

Mr. Schubert said we'd
all be working together

in the high energy lab.

Why don't you register

and slip on your bracelet?

Before signing anything

I'd like to verify
that the facilities

are as advertised, and that no

military applications
are permitted.

- Here, let me do it.
- We all insist.

[Instrumental music]

Thank you.

Now, will you all
follow me, please?

Good morning, sir.

Would you like to put
on your color-coded

identification bracelet?

What is that?

Here, let me do it.

Would you sign in, please?

[Instrumental music]

(Schubert) 'Welcome, young man.'

It's a pleasure to meet you.

I'll take care of our friend.

Name's schubert.

Come on.

You've given us a nice surprise.

We expected four new
members and we got five.

Tell me, how did you
manage to get here?

- I swam.
- Uh-huh.

[Chuckles] Yeah.

Yeah, and a fish told you

how to reach our door.

I do not speak the
language of fish.

The inner current took me
to the deep sound channel

and I listened to
the whales talk.

I felt the presence of your
submarine and I followed it.

You do a lot of that, do you?

Following submarines
through pitch black darkness

at the bottom of
uncharted oceans.

[Laughing]

You're a clever fella.

By the way, I apologize
for that little problem

the identification band.

'Personally, I can't
stand them myself.'

but most people here
find they come in handy.

You take mine.

Now.

Tell me who you are and what's
your purpose in being here?

I am Mark Harris.

Yeah.

You're quite an unusual fella.

We're gonna have to
get to know you better.

Get some rest.

Later on, I'll show you what
some peaceful scientists

have created at the
bottom of the sea.

Yeah.

'It's a little
reminder to all of us'

that we still have a few
i's to dot and t's to cross

before we get the results of..

..Experiment we're workin' on.

And that's all gonna
click into place shortly

with the help of a few
mathematical folks.

The very ones that were on
that submarine you followed.

[Chuckles]

We brought up the diver
and commander Johnson

has ordered an s and r unit.

With all that
precautions we've taken

I can't understand
how you could lose him.

He just fell off the scope.

Then check the scope.

I'm keeping our line
open for any news.

Find him.

Garbage.

The mathematicians are
redoing there computations.

They better get crackin' or
we're gonna miss the bus.

And I need that other report.

I wanna know all about
our unexpected visitor.

I wanna know exactly
what I have here.

Before we came along, the
idea of a sea mountain habitat

was just a bunch of chicken
tracks on a piece of paper.

But we made it work.

And I'll tell you the secret.

Make friends with the ocean.

Emil?

Tell us what you are up to.

Our ultimate aim is

to adapt ourselves
to life in the ocean

by creating homo-aquatis

the water breathing man.

You believe that's
possible, Mark?

Water breathin' man?

When he learns to breath water

he will be other than a man.

That's a most

philosophic observation.

Charming.

When it comes to ocean science

well, quantum jumps
ahead of the rest of 'em.

Everything here
comes from the sea.

Power, light, air,
food, everythin'.

Here.

Come on. Try it.

Won't kill you.

Trust me.

Plankton.

By golly.

Right.

I figure you to be
a marine biologist.

You heard about us from some
colleague and you stowed away

in our shuttle to
see for yourself.

I'm a citizen of the ocean.

Well..

Well, we got a lot in common.

I was a sea-goin'
junk-man for 20 years.

Until I got smart.

And now that I am smart

and rich, and difficult

I get what I want.

We are now at plus four.

Base line studies are complete.

Tm is good.

Wave transformation is good.

Neurons firing at
ten to a minus twenty.

Mr. Schubert
requests priority scan

and skin structure anomalies.

[Machine whirring]

[Whales squeaking]

(Schubert) 'Well, now, professor,
tell us about your whales.'

being a mammal

the whale has a culture

and a refined system
of communication.

We have been working
on computer translation

of their language.

Mr. Schubert is interested...

Virginia.

Mark knows the
language of whales.

What are they sayin', Mark?

[Whale squeaking]

They tell me they
wish to go home.

No, nobody here
wants to go home.

He is correct, Mr. Schubert.

I'm gonna have to convince you

to spend some more time with us.

[Squeaking continues]

No contact so far.

The search and rescue
unit's making another pass

through the trench.

Your assumption is..

He's trapped on the bottom?

Well..

It is possible that he just..

Forgot about us and took off.

Do you believe that, doctor?

No.

Well, then you keep searching.

(Schubert) 'My people tell
me that all of this is the best'

'that the human
race has produced.'

'well, even if they
weren't, I don't believe'

'in lettin' anything
go to waste.'

the ocean is full of stuff.

Wonderful stuff.

I'm savin' it from the
madness up there.

You know what I mean by madness?

- I learned.
- Yeah.

For 3000 years,
they've destroyed

our land, air, water.

Now, they're gonna
finish each other off

in one last big war.

How do you know that?

Well, mainly..

..Because I'm gonna start it.

[Instrumental music]

[Beeping]

You see, Mark

I have studied the human animal

not just from books. Close up.

And I've come to the conclusion,
there's no hope left for him

but to start all over again.

But this time, add some courtesy

good manners, a
touch of discipline.

Now, take these folks.

Outstandin'
scientists, everyone.

They all hate war.

All fed up with what they
had to do in their own countries

just wanting the chance
to work on pure science.

And they will, someday. Maybe.

[Speaking in foreign language]

Mark!

My bracelets make it easy.

No stress, no strain

no searching the
soul, and so forth.

Yeah, but you can't do that
with four billion people, can you?

Look at this stuff!

All that's left of Russian
spy ships, CIA aircraft

French super subs filled to
the brim with secret hardware.

I find it and fix it up,
and put it to work.

I am the original recycle king.

You see that map?

We're watchin' every nuclear
missile carryin' submarine

and ship in the world.

Hundreds of them carrying
thousands of missiles

each one aimed at a target
in somebody else's country

and all ready to be
fired in case of war.

We know their exact positions

the exact status of each missile

and where each one is aimed.

Now, can you imagine
what could be accomplished

'if one man could get
control of all that power'

'for just 30 seconds?'

well, I've done it.

[Screaming]

Switch to another system.

[Instrumental music]

It's a curable problem.

We are prepared for human error.

'Go back to your station, Phil.'

Philip.

No.

Now, I understand your world

and you are wrong.

Uh.

The human animal
continues to amaze me.

Here, put this on.

Thank you.

(Schubert) 'Very shortly,
a signal will be generated'

'from this undersea mountain'

to every missile-carrying
vessel in the oceans.

That signal will penetrate
every electronic defense

override every fail-safe system

and cause every sea-goin'
missile in the world

to destroy its
pre-arranged target.

And we will sit out that mess.

We're gonna shake our planet

down to her roots.

'Then, we're gonna get
her up to speed again'

'with fewer but considerably
better quality people'

'folks like you.'

just like you.

I want you to think about that

as you go back to your quarters.

And thank you.

[Instrumental music]

[Music continues]

[Humming]

[Heavy breathing]

(Schubert) 'I'm sorry you
fellas didn't have the gumption'

to go the whole way with us.

There would have been places
for both of you in my world.

'But if you can't take the heat'

you have to get
out of the kitchen.

And that's a pity.

[Dramatic music]

Help me.

[Gasping]

[Music continues]

[Music continues]

Alright, listen to me.

Breathe deeply.

Breathe once more.

Hold on to me.

[Instrumental music]

The report on Mark Harris.

[Chuckles] What
took you so long?

Chemical anomalies
required re-screening.

And our friend's adornment?

'Too bad we don't need it now.'

by the way, George.

We'll be having a
celebration shortly.

There'd be a hot time
in the old town tonight.

Alright, George.

[Instrumental music]

Check the cage for two bodies.

If you don't find them,
scour every water chamber

and tunnel in the habitat.

We may have a
water-breathing man among us.

But treat him with care.

[Instrumental music]

Listen to me. Get the others.

Take the bands from their wrists

lead them to the submarine.

But the sea lock.

Door to the sea, closed.

- I will open it.
- But.. Schubert..

Signal beam,
setting off missiles.

'He has to be stopped.'

[instrumental music]

[Music continues]

[Music continues]

(Schubert) 'Good
to see you, Mark.'

I've been expecting you.

But what took so long?

Turn off the signal beam.

Open the door to the sea.

Open it yourself, my friend.

Merely depress
the lighted button.

[Laughing] 'Yeah.'

yeah, I know.

Forgive me.

My affliction is the result
of a warped adulthood

coupled with an insatiable
desire to be friendly.

And I do wanna
be friendly with you.

Come join me, Mark.

'Let's be friends.'

I liked you when we first met

but now that I have read
this report on your innards

I really like you.

'Because I know you.'

I know all about you.

Where you're strong.

Where you're weak.

I could blind you with light.

Or fry you with ultrasonics.

Or just keep you away from
water and watch you gasp

like a fish on the desert.

I sure could.

But I don't waste treasures

that come to me from the ocean.

Besides, we gotta
stick together.

Survival is not only
the reward of the fittest

it is our obligation.

Alright.

In return for your friendship

I'll trade the lives of
those lesser people

who apparently wish
to leave my home.

Our home.

Yours and mine, Mark.

Here.

You do the honors.

The gate to the sea and
freedom for your friends.

Come on.

Right this way.

[Instrumental music]

That's right.

Calm down.

Take the finger off the switch.

Didn't I raise a red switch?
I'd never lie to my friends.

Mark, you're gonna
learn to love me.

Now, turn off the signal beam.

Your signal beam
cannot be stopped.

The countdown
sequence is automatic.

Can the mountain
be flooded with water?

Yes.

This room, all the
rooms, everything?

Yes.

Will that stop the signal beam?

I don't know.

Do it.

[Rumbling]

[Water gushing]

Hurry. Hurry.

- God.
- Let's go.

Come on.

[Indistinct chatter]

- Someone's down!
- I can take him up.

I can help him up.

Let's go!

[Beeping]

Hold on! Hold on!

Help! Help me!

Now, open the door to the sea.

[Water gushing]

[Explosions]

[Glass shatters]

[Explosions continue]

[Explosions continue]

[Rumbling]

[Explosions continue]

[Rumbling continues]

[Electricity crackling]

[Explosion]

(Pierce on phone) 'I was
afraid this would happen, doctor.'

I'm sorry, admiral.

'You must be taking it hard.'

yes, we are.

'We'll miss him.'

yes.

Yes, it is a great loss.

(Schubert) 'Mark, my boy!'

it was a Valiant effort.

Nonetheless..

It was merely an effort.

I look forward to our ne..

[Explosion]

[Instrumental music]

A water-breathing man.

What a waste.

[Explosions]

Mm. Maybe a hot time
in the old town tonight.

[Instrumental music]

(Pierce) 'Commander Johnson
forwarded the particulars.'

'the secretary was gratified
to learn of the recovery.'

he's been in touch with the
various foreign embassies

relative to the safety
of their nationals.

Elizabeth..

But for your perseverance

'we wouldn't have
known Mark Harris.'

I'm sorry he was lost.

We..

We all did our very best.

Thank you, admiral.

[Instrumental music]

[Heavy breathing]

Mark.

Mark!

Are you alright?

Is something wrong?

No. No, nothing's wrong.

[Instrumental music]

What I'm trying to say, Mark

is that the good
people of this world

have to stick together.

- What do you think of that?
- I think you are right.

Well, then you've
decided to accept my offer.

You are a good man, admiral.

I cannot know your
world as you do.

You cannot know mine as I do.

Let us stay each
in our own world.

No, I'm sorry,
Mark, it won't work.

We're already into your world.

You could help us go
into it in the right way.

You don't need me.

You have your machines.

Machines aren't gonna be
able to do what you can do

for a long time.

And right now, we have
a lot of problems to solve.

Scientific, medical, defense.

And some not-too-friendly
people out there.

You helped us get
rid of one Mr. Schubert

'but there are others.'

- he is dead, isn't he?
- I did not see him die.

He wasn't trapped when that
undersea mountain flooded?

I was not trapped.

Is he alive?

I do not find Mr. Schubert

to be a man who gives up easily.

Let us say goodbye now.

We don't have to
let you go, you know?

Thanks for what you've
done for us, Mark.

Hey, Mark!

Hey, the doc's
been looking for you.

- Thank you, Ernie.
- Hey, uh..

You know, there's something
I've been meaning to ask you.

Uh, you and the doc got a little
somethin' goin' on there, hmm?

What does that mean?

Oh, boy.

Sometimes, I don't
know what to make of you.

'You're one in a million.'

thank you, Ernie.

- I'm leaving.
- Oh?

Hey, well, we're sure gonna
miss you and all that razz, huh?

Well, keep your ears clean.

[Instrumental music]

Mark?

Again, there is something wrong?

No.

Nothing.

Just emotions.

Feelings.

Explain "Feelings."

I don't know if I can.

Water from your eyes, twice.

Explain.

Well, when you get..

Attached to someone

and you're close..

You feel happy.

And when you lose them..

You feel sad.

Sometimes, you cry.

You don't cry?

I have something
to say to you now.

I shall call you Elizabeth.

Keep your ears clean, Elizabeth.

[Chuckles]

Who taught you to say that?

It's not a custom among
divers when saying goodbye?

I guess so.

It tastes of salt.

[Instrumental music]

I will remember you.

Mark?

(Elizabeth) Come
on, breathe. Breathe.

Come on!

I would like you to stay, too

but not like this.

Only because you wanted to.

May I take your order, please?

Is this the party that placed
a call to Seattle, Washington?

(Pierce) Thanks for what
you've done for us, Mark.

(Mark) You have tails?

Yeah, they put 'em in the
same time they put in the gills.

It's better to
have gills like you.

Are you giving me the razz?

Sea monsters.

[Laughs]

There are no sea monsters
in the place you call the trench.

- 'How do you know?'
- I have been there.

[Laughing]

I like him.

(Elizabeth) You still
remember nothing about

where in the ocean
you come from?

Perhaps, when I'm deep in
the ocean, I will remember.

Perhaps, when you're
deep in the ocean

you'll forget about us.

You'll forget about us.

[Music continues]

Mark.

I have not learned enough.

[Music continues]
