The Secret of Two Oceans

Based on the novel by G. Adamov Part two

The Soviet ship "Arctic"

sank mysteriously in Atlantic ocean.

On the same day and the same hour

the French ship "Victoire" sank in Pacific ocean.

The mysterious nature of the tragedy, that took place in two oceans,

caused great concern and confusion in the public press all over the world.

To determine the causes of the catastrophe,

the Soviet Union has sent the "Pioneer" submarine.

The enemy made his way to the submarine.

But who is he?

In the area of the shipwreck

the submarine crew have rescued Pavlik - the son of "Arctic" 's captain.

The sub's captain Vorontsov

sent the search party of divers

to the sunken ship.

The bathysphere,

where professor Lortkipanidze conducted the scientific research,

was attacked by a squid.

The terrible creature grabbed the metal sphere

with its gigantic tentacles

and tried to destroy the bathysphere.

Batuy.

A line, a pointer, a circle.

Why did you shut your eyes? Are you sleepy?

I'm just playing.

-And what about breakfast? -I ate already.

And the lunch?

Full speed ahead!

Yes, sir, the lunch!

Proceed.

-Any news from land? -No, comrade Commander.

The divers delivered soil samples and some metal from the ship's hull.

Comrade Druzhinin...

who have you put in charge of divers?

Mechanical engineer Gorelov, comrade first rank Captain.

Attention!

Captain speaking.

All divers to return on board immediately.

Comrade Commander, they've got 30 minutes left.

I know.

Petty officer Skvoreshnya speaking.

Comrade first rank Captain, do you copy?

I'm listening, comrade Skvoreshnya.

I am near the radio room, I'll need another 15 minutes to finish.

There might be data on the shipwreck, please, allow me to stay longer.

-Can you keep it within 15 minutes? -Comrade first rank Captain,

Engineer Gorelov speaking.

Go ahead, comrade Gorelov.

Skvoreshnya is right.

Let the two of us stay here.

Then we'll keep it within 15 minutes for sure.

Fine.

In 15 minutes, at 1 PM...

I'll be waiting for you 5 miles away from here by the...

north-east course.

Control room, course - south-east.

Speed - 50 knots.

Nikolay Borisovich, you just said north-east.

It needs to be done.

When they ask...

we'll let them know the new location of the sub.

Comrade Commander, officer of the deck speaking.

External examination of the sub is required.

Good.

Comrade Druzhinin...

come at once.

Officer of the deck!

Prepare the outlet chamber.

Comrade Captain...

I am extremely worried for the people.

We have witnessed an extraordinary natural phenomenon.

Look at these numbers:

the Geiger counter registered a powerful stream of underwater radiation.

5200.

-What about the water saturation? -The saturation is enormous!

And I think there was a splitting of uranium as well.

How can you explain this phenomenon?

Somewhere near there was an underwater volcanic eruption.

Volcanic eruption?

Can you tell how far from us is the epicenter?

I'd say, 20 to 30 kilometers, not more

To the north-east of here.

Thank you, professor.

Comrade Druzhinin...

send a group of divers to inspect the outer part of the sub.

Allow me to supervise the work personally.

Proceed.

What are you doing?

People will be exposed to radiation and will die from radiation sickness.

Proceed.

Dear colleague...

you have completely overlooked the fact, that the sub, bathysphere and diving suits...

are well protected from such dangers.

And then...

-What then? -Then I managed to escape from them.

How?

Tell me.

When I get old and go into retirement...

this will be the most fascinating chapter in my memoirs.

But for now, settle for the fact that I am here and they've lost my track.

Are you sure of that?

Just as sure as I see you right now, madame Sidorina.

What do you need from me this time?

Not much.

Just something in exchange for the favor I did to your chief.

And my husband.

I am really glad...

I saved you from a sad fate of a widow.

I am grateful.

My wishes are more than modest.

I need new documents.

And, of course...

-Money. -That's correct.

Come in!

-Hello. -Hello.

I am sorry, but all the rooms are occupied.

Yes, thank you, but I've got a room already.

I'm listening.

"Kazbek" from Moscow, please, help yourself.

I do not smoke....

the papiroses.

Oh, so you smoke only cigarettes.

Well, sorry for that.

A friend of mine...

he's from Moscow too, he came here.

Ivashov, the musician.

Has he stayed here by any chance?

No.

I can't remember.

Maybe, it wasn't on my...

-Sit down! -Oh my God, who is this man?

Sit down!

-How did he get here? -That's a good question.

And you will...

Take him.

I want to know just one thing: have I shot this scoundrel?

Did you really want to shoot him?

How is he?

He's just knocked out.

Excuse me.

Do you recognize this area?

No, comrade Commander.

This is the place, where we should have ended up...

if we'd followed the north-east course.

The bombing!

That's why you've changed course.

-So, you knew? -No!

But I expected this. As you can see, not without reason.

Where did the people go?

Let's inspect the surface.

Something shiny there.

Zoom-in to this area.

A diver.

A diver?

-We have to surface immediately. -No.

Officer of the deck!

To the right, at an angle of 30� to our course is our man.

Send people to rescue him.

Tell them to not show themselves on the surface. Proceed.

But why is he on the surface?

He either is wounded or...

Show me the sky!

A helicopter.

Logbook

So...

it wasn't for nothing.

I took the logbook and began crawling back.

I wanted to let you know, that Skvoreshnya is missing.

As I got to the upper deck...

I see something dark over my head, like a thread.

I come closer...

and turns out it is a wire.

I'm thinking: "how did it get here?".

I swim around the Arctic...

Take it easy.

-No. -You must not worry.

I must tell you everything.

I must...

must tell you everything.

I see the diver...

who transmits something over the radio.

I throw myself at him...

but he breaks free from me.

Then something...

comes down on me...

and that is all.

Is that all you remember?

Yes.

Apparently, that mysterious diver was none other than Skvoreshnya.

-So, you remember the explosion. -Yes.

-But why did it happen? -I don't know.

I see.

These explosions were brought on us by Skvoreshnya.

Skvoreshnya?

I can't believe this.

Don't you remember anything else?

He doesn't remember anything.

How did he end up on the surface...

the helicopter...

Comrade first rank Captain, the divers are back.

Olga Ivanovna,

I'm leaving the patient under your responsibility.

-If anything happens, call me immediately. -Understood.

Don't stand up.

Comrade first rank Captain...

we have searched the entire area. No signs of Skvoreshnya.

We haven't spotted the bathysphere either.

They probably are dead.

Boatswain!

-Assign a day-night search. -Yes, sir.

We must find our people at all costs.

Bazov is right.

Oh, Skvoreshnya, Skvoreshnya...

-So, this is him. -Yes, it's him.

When I was a watchman in the state circus, they came at night.

Two of them.

And I was a little drunk...

so I thought: "is this even real?".

They looked exactly the same.

Then the artist says:

"Let us in. This is my brother. We're twins.

-He came to see my rehe..." -Rehearsal.

So, I let them in. And here's how everything turned out.

And what happened next, grandpa?

After that...

I was fired.

But they left me the pension.

How would I know that he will kill himself?

I run there...

One lies on the ground and the other...

cries, sobs.

Thank you, grandpa. Thank you.

...brother is coming. Meet him. Anna.

...And after his brother, artist Gorelov, died,

he started acting strange.

He wasn't himself.

And what exactly was strange about him?

He stopped saying hello...

didn't recognize his friends...

he started forgetting things.

Not only me, but all the employees of the design bureau noticed that.

Some even advised him...

to visit a doctor. -I see, I see.

Thank you.

-Good bye. -Good bye.

You will have to wait in the other room.

Accompany her.

I always lived in fear.

I was afraid of truth.

I wad tired of being afraid.

I have shot the enemy.

Why?

Why don't you believe me?

Why?

Now you'll understand why.

-Hello! -Sit down.

Do you know this woman?

She is the hotel administrator.

I've heard she shot at me, but missed.

You can keep the change.

Thank you.

Who is Sidorina's husband?

I think, it would be easier if Sidorina answered this question herself.

So, your husband isn't an engineer,..

but an artist from Leningrad circus?

On that night...

when you ended your life with such brilliance...

wasn't it this gentleman, that visited you?

I don't think that someone would need to wear a tailcoat to pay me a visit.

I don't think so either.

Maybe then he visited you, wearing the black oilcloth raincoat and hat?

Unfortunately, on that night...

I was unconscious.

Do you recognize this object?

Never seen it before.

Stop clowning around!

From everything we know...

with your assistance...

we can conclude...

that on the 28 of June in 1941...

Nikolay invited Petr to the circus...

to his rehearsal.

You have to understand me, Petr.

The audience is used to this jump already.

We need to make it more difficult.

For an engineer like you,

it would be easy.

I've been pretty busy lately...

but I will gladly help you.

If only you'd have any ideas I could use.

Then I'll do it faster.

I actually have an idea.

Go, sailor.

Little by little.

Go!

Good!

Good!

The hero!

Go ahead.

Go ahead.

You're rushing me.

Good job!

Look.

If we could extend this crossbar to two more curls of that section, you see?

So, you're saying, that?...

He killed him...

and used his resemblance....

-Help me!

Somebody help me!

...to take Petr's place in the design bureau.

And the slain engineer...

was buried as the artist in your absence.

Scoundrel!

I should have killed you!

Idiot.

I don't know anything about what he said.

You don't have to insult each other.

Comrade Colonel was just making assumptions.

And you just confirmed them.

Don't try your tricks on me.

-I'm not telling you anything. -There is no need for this.

We could have arrested you when you crossed the border.

But we decided to let you go.

As you can see, for a reason.

In this folder we have all the details of your undercover work, Captain.

Shall I tell him the names?

Don't.

Take them away.

Now we have unraveled the tangle.

So, Nikolay Gorelov got aboard the Pioneer submarine...

doing the job for his new boss...

who wants to start a new war.

Our goal is to neutralize Gorelov as soon as possible.

Pass this encryption...

to the Pioneer submarine. -Yes, comrade Colonel.

Comrade Commander, a radiogram. It says three men from Victoire were rescued.

They said that right before the explosion a motorboat passed their ship.

With no people on it and no name. Its number was 17.

Let's see what Arctic can tell us.

15 degrees 05 minutes. One moment.

"We are coming alongside a small motorboat. There is no crew on it."

"It has no name, it's number is 17".

In both cases there were motorboats with the number 17 on them, and then - death.

It's like the legend of the flying Dutchman.

Two different oceans, one time of catastrophe.

The secret of two oceans:

two ships...

two different oceans...

same fatal end.

And a curious coincidence, look at this:

the Victoire ship sank here.

Close to this place there are some desert islands.

And this is the place where Arctic sank.

And there is an island close to it as well.

That is Batui.

Long ago the idolaters lived there.

But for more than a hundred years...

this island has been uncontrollably sinking into the ocean.

And now it is believed to be deserted.

But is it really?

This is what we need to find out.

By uncovering the secret of the Atlantic ocean...

we will uncover the secret of the Pacific ocean, too.

A table, two chairs, a bed,

a bookshelf with 46 books in it,

12 of them are small,

and a map in the corner behind the curtain. -Good job, Pavlik.

You're doing a good job with big objects.

So, you're saying there's a bookshelf...

a map, two chairs...

But you can't, for example, draw a map by heart.

-Maybe, I can. -Nah... But you could try.

Here's the pencil. Go ahead.

Here.

This looks like a scribble, Pavlik.

This is not a scribble.

This is the line.

It was marked with red pencil on the map.

And where does this line end?

Under your very nose?

Have you forgotten?

No, I have not.

It ends just short of...

the circle, that is drawn on the map with black pencil.

You still don't have the sharp eye of a sailor yet.

And what is written in the circle?

I bet you don't remember. -No, I remember.

"Ba-tui". The word "Batui" is written there. -Good job.

Good job, sea boy.

And what is the distance...

from where the red line ends...

to the circle?

It's that much.

Two to three centimeters.

Yes.

Well then...

you did a good job.

My lessons were not in vain.

Please. Take any half. -Thank you.

Now go.

It's time to sleep. And I need to rest, too. Go.

Bathysphere to the starboard side !

The bathysphere!

Arsen Davydovich, where have you been? We asked you to not go too far.

The squid!

I met it and it was a bit aggressive.

-But why didn't you answer? -It broke my radio.

-I see, but are you all right? -I am fine and healthy as an ox!

And I've managed to take pictures of it.

You are like a child...

The captain went hard on me because of you.

I need to see the captain as soon as possible.

-I am the captain for you now! -Calm down. You see, I... We...

He needs to see the captain.

-Who "he"? -Me.

I need to see the captain.

Petty officer?

Ah, petty officer Skvoreshnya.

-Yes, it is him. -Good that you came back.

You are under arrest.

So...

I see.

I want to see the captain now. -Put your hands up!

Up!

-Commanding bridge, now! -Professor!

Search him.

Search him.

-Whom? -Me.

Quick, professor.

In the right pocket.

-Careful, it is loaded. -Loaded?

Faster.

Easy. Let's go.

Easy, easy.

-Let's go faster. -We've got time.

Go slower.

Take this away.

Come in.

Comrade Commander.

Skvoreshnya!

You're alive!

-Yes, I am, comrade Captain. -Hello!

I was really afraid that you died.

Comrade Commander, may I go?

Go, Petr Martynovich.

So, what happened?

Long story. Gorelov is the enemy.

Where is he?

At the hospital. He was wounded.

But he might get away.

He will not.

Officer of the deck.

Stop all movement.

Do not let anyone out without my permission.

-Are you hungry? -I am.

Empirically I've managed to find out...

about the effects of radiation at the Arctic wreck site.

I began watching him.

Soon I found out that he had a vacuum tube.

This I know, but how did he get the logbook?

When you let us to stay there longer...

I took this logbook from the Arctic's safe.

Then I decided to go back to the sub...

and met Gorelov close to the sunken ship.

He was passing up some information with the Morse code. We started fighting.

Then the explosion, I blacked out. Woke up in the bathysphere.

A glass of wine will do it.

A special delivery, Olga Ivanovna. This note is addressed to you.

And I want to ask you, my friends: do not bring up this...

shameful page of sea boy's life in the future.

Shameful? I am not so sure.

If you'd taken me with you, we would have dealt with that squid for sure.

Or rather it would have dealt with both of you.

He could eat the professor and have you for dessert.

Professor...

how did you manage to save yourself? -Where did you find Skvoreshnya?

I'm sorry, friends...

but first I have to tell the commander about this.

We need to deal with something.

Commander is busy at the moment.

And we are dying of curiosity. -Yes, tell us.

I woke up from an awful concussion.

And I heard the rumblings of underwater explosions.

My bathysphere...

had lost control...

Control room!

Control room! Can you hear me?

Skvoreshnya regained consciousness.

Then he told me everything.

I believed him.

But now, excuse me,

I don't understand at all.

One asks me to bring him to the captain, the other arrests him.

What is going on on our sub?

Tell me, please, who have I saved?

Dear professor, you have committed a patriotic act.

Meet Andrey Skvoreshnya - the major of National Security.

Thank you, professor.

Take it, please.

How does this barrier work?

Good.

I need to go out, to the ocean, to check the exhaust pipes.

Commander's order: everyone to stay on board.

Yes, orders should be obeyed.

Open the bathysphere up.

For inspection.

Aye aye, opening up the bathysphere for inspection!

Help me, quick!

You are sick, what are you doing here, in the diving suit?

We are going outside.

Water

Alarm

To captain's cabin!

What happened?

Arsen Davydovich, Professor, go see if she needs something.

Comrade Captain!

Comrade second rank Captain, there is an unconscious sailor in the bathysphere!

Comrade Captain!

Pull the lever! The lever!

-What happened, comrade Captain? -The elevator is disabled.

Torpedomen to inspect the exit hole and the hatch!

Electricians to begin repairing the elevator immediately!

Comrade Captain, is there another exit?

Only through the emergency bathysphere. -That's too slow.

I must get him in the water or he'll get away to land.

But there's no other way.

Prepare the bathysphere!

That's it.

Comrade Captain full speed ahead, maybe?

It is not possible.

We are at the wreck site.

If we head to the island, we'll risk losing the ship. -And I can't lose Gorelov.

So, what is your suggestion?

Comrade Captain...

allow me to launch myself through the rock-exploder!

You are out of your mind!

Comrade Captain...

give me permission.

Put the diving suit on.

Yes!

I'm gonna get you!

-Prepare the auto recon unit. -Aye aye.

Ready, comrade Captain.

Well then...

The most important thing - maintain the radio communication.

If Gorelov passes anything along, we'll take bearings...

and tell you the exact coordinates.

-Comrade Captain, I am worried... -About the Pioneer.

Yes, Gorelov could have mined the sub.

Don't worry, we will take care of this.

Any questions?

No.

Good luck. Don't risk too much.

I'll do my best.

-The helmet! -Aye aye, the helmet!

-The exploder! -Aye aye, the exploder!

Comrade Captain, the exploder is ready.

Good.

Close it. -Aye aye!

-Exploder to launch position! -To launch position!

-Get ready to fire! -Aye aye!

-Fire! -Aye aye!

Comrades sailors and officers!

There was an enemy operating on our submarine.

Before fleeing, he could have mined the sub.

Boatswain Gavrilov...

gather the group and inspect the bow compartment.

Comrade Druzhinin, you start with the stern.

Inspect each compartment, every centimeter of the submarine. Proceed.

Follow me!

Acousticians to maintain constant radio connection with Skvoreshnya.

And intercept all messages.

-Permission to speak freely, comrade Captain. -Speak.

Who was the enemy?

Engineer Gorelov. Proceed.

-What are you doing here, Pavlik? -I... I... He lied to me!

Wait a minute.

What does it have to do with you?

Now I realized why he needed the map.

-What map? -Our map from the cabin.

-You gave him my map? -No-no.

I only drew it on a piece of paper, here.

Why have you done this?

Uncle Kolya, I...

I didn't know that he was a traitor.

He told me it was a game.

I had to close my eyes and...

The alarm clock is gone! There was an alarm clock here!

And the album disappeared too! Uncle Kolya!

Comrade first rank Captain,

Stern compartments have been inspected. Nothing found.

Good. Expect further instructions.

Comrade Commander...

all rooms were searched. Personal belongings of sailors, too.

Nothing found.

An alarm clock is missing from Gorelov's cabin.

I'm going to lie on the bottom and turn off engines

Search with the soundcatcher. -Aye aye.

Control room.

Immediate dive. We're going to the bottom.

All gears, all engines are stopped.

It's so silent, that you can hear a mosquito flying.

But the indicator is going crazy.

It wouldn't act like this without a reason.

Yes, there is a reason!

But what is it actually?

And where?

Not so easy to figure out, we must think about it.

Of course.

But time, do we have time for this?

We could blow up any moment and you say we must think!

I found it!

I figured it out!

Everything!

Comrade Commander, we forgot about the watches...

that almost every crew member has in his possession.

While they are working, no soundcatcher could possibly help us.

Vacuum! Vacuum!

Gather all the watches and I will put them in the vacuum retort.

Attention!

Commander Vorontsov speaking.

Order to all crew members.

Commander's order:

stop all wall clocks, all alarm clocks,

bring all personal watches to commanding post immediately.

-Here. -Thank you.

Absolute silence set.

Continue searching.

Petty officer Skvoreshnya speaking.

Comrade Captain, I am currently at the hidden underwater base.

Rapid! Rapid!

Rapid!

I am Cobra. I am Cobra.

Do you copy?

Do you copy?

I'm passing the coordinates of Pioneer.

Skvoreshnya...

Vorontsov speaking.

Head to north-west.

We have detected a radio transmitter.

Head to north-west.

Yes.

15 degrees 45 minutes eastern longitude.

42 degrees 37 minutes 05 seconds northern latitude.

I repeat.

I repeat the coordinates...

Cobra, I am Rapid, I am Rapid.

Over to you.

There was a failed trick attempt at the entrance.

Failed trick attempt. Cleaning needed.

Password: seventeen...

Comrade Captain, I chased Gorelov down. We're coming back together.

Good, petty officer, very good.

Proceed.

I'll have to stay longer.

It seems that I could go inside the structure. I must try.

Proceed.

Yes.

Password?

Seventeen.

Comrade Captain, Skvoreshnya speaking.

Confirm connection.

I see some kind of unit.

Everything is automated here.

I think, this is an energetic unit.

I see a motorboat.

Number 17.

Actually, it is not a motorboat, it is a torpedo.

It entered the chamber.

The water is coming.

Now the lock.

The second one is coming.

Nikolay Borisovich, the motorboats are going to the starting position to attack.

I repeat: the motorboats are getting ready to attack.

Understood.

Come back immediately.

Prepare to repel the torpedo attack.

Password.

Seventeen.

Comrade Captain, I have been detected.

I will try to escape.

Skvoreshnya!

Full speed ahead!

Full speed ahead! There are torpedoes are behind you!

Comrade Druzhinin,

when Skvoreshnya gets in, come to me right away.

Petty Officer Skvoreshnya is on board.

Good.

Full speed ahead!

Comrade Commander, torpedoes are 1000 meters away.

-Comrade Commander, Skvoreshnya brought Gorelov. -I know.

800 meters.

Torpedoes are approaching rapidly.

-I know. -600 meters.

Maybe we should change course?

There's no point. They are magnetic.

400 meters.

Collision is imminent, comrade Commander.

That's it.

-What are we going to do? -We will defend!

What is wrong with you?

This boy...

will never forget your lessons of memorization.

He will never forget, how he met...

the enemy of the Motherland. -Now we can tell everyone...

that the secret of two oceans does not exist anymore.

Fly, fly like a seagull, my song,

As there is no one faster than you

Fly faster to my beloved land,

Say hello to my sweetheart.

The end
