I'll see you in three days, then.

Don't worry.

Come back to the house. It'll be too easy.

No, thank you, sir. I've got things to do. Nothing that can't wait.

Twenty -three cables, please, rather.

Ah!

Matty!

Matty, we're home!

Oh, come in, guys. Come in.

Help yourself to a drink.

Letty!

Oh, damn.

What's the matter?

Trouble, sir?

That fool Baldwin's gone and broken a leg.

Just a sight for Belfast tomorrow morning. Oh, I'll go and take this to

I thought you wanted a couple of days ashore.

Oh, me? No, sir. A short trip like that's just what I could do with. Oh,

it's up to you. Whatever you say.

Letty! Mr. O 'Neill, then, I know you've just come back from Africa, but there

is no need to go shouting round the house like a hottentot. Right. It's your

mistress at home.

She's lying down.

What? About 11 in the morning.

Yes, she's not over, is she? No, she's having a rest.

James, I'm just coming down.

Well, I'll be off then.

Why don't you stay?

Say hello to Lettie. Have a drink.

Oh, no, sir. I've got to turn that ship round fast. I'll see you later.

Will you be in for dinner?

Of course I'll be in for dinner.

I was only asking.

Seems to me you ought to go out and come back in again.

Hello, James.

It's a wonder where you...

I think

you'd better sit down, James.

You are? Yeah.

How long?

Six months.

Six months?

Six months and you chose not to tell me?

You've been away for just over two months, James. But you must have known

I left. Well, of course I did. Well, now, why in damnation didn't you tell

Because I knew you'd behave in the same way as you're behaving now. That's why.

Well, how do you expect me to behave?

I thought I made it perfectly clear that I didn't want any more children.

I made it quite clear that I did.

Well, you made damn sure that you got your way. I did not get with child on my

own, James.

Now, Charlotte, I'll tell you the reason why I kept it from you.

I had hoped that you'd grow to want a child.

Our child.

One that would be a symbol of our love.

I'm not put out to be a father!

I thought I'd made that perfectly plain enough!

Why, because you don't love Charlotte?

Oh, I'm sorry, I... I shouldn't have said that.

I know you've tried.

I?

James.

It could be different. How many more times?

I don't want to look.

Betty.

I'd make plans for us.

Show you the world, just the two of us. No, no, no, Edie. It's a different

world, that's all.

But it's still one that we can both share.

Dinner in half an hour, if that's all right.

Not for me.

I don't want food.

Well, Daniel, do we go or not?

We have to go.

He is our son, and it is his 21st birthday.

I planned a quiet dinner party here, just the three of us.

It was to be something special. Yes, I know, but William obviously wants a much

grander affair, and after all, it is his day. Oh, but in the office of all

places. And of course you know who will be there, that dreadful man Beaumont. I

expect so.

And you and I will be as civil as we can and do nothing to spoil things for

William. Isn't that so? Oh.

You know, sometimes you make me feel like a firework that's been lit and

go on. Yes, well, there are plenty of times when you do.

Well, it's 21 years.

I know.

I was thinking that only the other day.

Have I changed much, Daniel?

Yes. Oh? You're no longer a girl, you're a woman.

And in the process, you've grown even more beautiful.

And in 21 years, you have become quite a gallant.

150 ,000.

That's lower than their last offer. Yes.

It seems that they feel they can force me to sell. No, I'm sure that isn't

intention. It's simply that the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board feel this is the

right price. But, E .T., surely the yard must be worth more than that.

Most of the big yards across the river, yes.

You'll be lucky to find a buyer.

That is, if you want to sell.

Do you?

The yard does make a profit, but small in relation to the capital investment.

Now, if that capital were reinvested in the Fraser line... Yes, I can see that's

where your real interest lies.

What does your father advise?

I haven't told him yet.

I thought to wait a few days.

By which time the company will be yours.

Very wise.

Look, William, supposing I were to put out a few feelers, see if I can find

someone to better this offer. Would you think that's possible? Everything is

possible. And leave it with me for a few days.

Who is that out there?

Oh, it's you, sir.

You knew.

That's why you scuttled away, isn't it?

You knew, didn't you?

Aye, I knew.

Then why the hell did you not tell me?

Because hardly my place was it, sir.

Hardly my...

Of course it was your place.

I mean, if a man don't know when his own wife's having a baby.

How long have you known?

Three months.

Three months?

Oh, you are a fine friend.

Did Mrs. O 'Neill tell you?

Good Lord, no, sir. It was just a lucky guess, that was all.

She swore me to secrecy and I kept my promise.

Everybody in the whole world knows.

Everybody but me.

I must say you don't seem none too pleased.

Could be a boy, you know.

You know, I always reckoned that you wanted a son.

If it was me, I'd want a son. Well, it's not you.

I mean, ten or twenty years ago, it would have been all right.

But it's not as if I'm a young man anymore, you see.

No, that's true.

It'll be twenty years before that child's off me hands.

Yeah, but supposing it's a boy.

And a strong right arm for you.

Great strength to a man in his old age.

Oh, what do you know about it?

Well, only what I missed.

I mean, it seems a pity to me that a man can work hard all his life and leave no

mark on the world.

What are you talking about, eh?

I've left my mark.

What about the innate line built up from one ship?

I have a loose carried arm.

I mean, your brother as Samuel.

And on Samuel, I mean, Mr. Robert's name will be up on that store for many a

long year again.

Samuel's a good lad.

What's to say you shouldn't have a son as good as him?

Ah, that's true, but what's to say I shouldn't have a daughter?

Ah, yeah, well, I mean, daughters can be.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, they can't sail a ship, can they?

Or run a shipping line.

Well, your sister did.

What? Sail a ship?

Oh, round the shipping line.

Elizabeth.

Oh, hells and bells.

Imagine having a daughter like her.

Here.

Are you trying to get me a drink or something?

Oh, is that such a bad idea, sir?

Congratulations to the next old Eden.

What?

It's true, William. But what are we going to do?

Look.

Look, are you certain?

Yes, I saw the doctor this morning. Doctor? Not your own, surely? No, I went

across the other side of town and gave a false name and he confirmed it. But

didn't he suggest what you could do?

Do? Well, I don't know.

You mean there's nothing you can do?

Well, no, except take care of myself.

Does anyone else know?

No, of course not, but I shall have to tell them soon. Will you?

Yes, I suppose you will.

One rash moment.

No, William, you mustn't look at it like that.

We're together now, and that's what's important. And you mustn't blame

either. Charlotte, you make me feel ashamed.

You've accepted this so calmly, and yet here am I... Don't you see, William,

there's nothing to worry about.

Within a few days, you'll be 21. It'll only be me that needs to get permission.

What?

But in the circumstances they can hardly refuse to let me marry you.

Oh, don't you see?

It's all worked out for the best.

And I'll tell you this, ma 'am. If he comes in at this hour and wants his

supper, he'll get the rough edge of my tongue.

Charlotte gone to bed?

Aye. She looked quite flushed.

I hope she's not sickening again.

Can it be at this hour?

I've come to apologise.

I behaved very badly.

And I'm sorry.

We'll talk about it in the morning.

I think I'll go to bed now.

Better.

I'll give you a hand, sir. I can manage.

Mrs. Gibson, will you see it doesn't fall down the stairs?

Happen him, I bring him to his senses.

That's in vain.

Well?

I'm afraid it's all my fault, ma 'am.

When he came aboard the Sarsaloo, he was in a very poor state.

Well, what kind of state would you say he was in now?

Well, a state of mind, I mean.

He was very low.

So I thought if he had a few drinks, he'd take his mind off things.

Well, I'd say you've succeeded admirably.

Brought him round, though.

To the child, I mean.

Oh?

He'd be happier if it was a boy, though.

Said he'd make his second name Will after me. I'd like that. I really would.

Well, between you, it seems as if you've settled everything.

Though I did point out that it might be a girl.

Oh, you did consider that possibility?

Ah, yeah, but he seemed to only want to talk about a boy, so I didn't mention a

girl no more.

Well, Captain Beans, I'm not sure whether to thank you or not.

I'm only sorry to bring him home in such a state.

Oh, well, you've brought him home, and I suppose what you did was for the best.

I think I'd better be going now.

Are you sure you can manage?

Bless him up.

He's had twice the amount I've had.

Excuse me.

Good morning, Daniel.

Good morning.

Have you had breakfast?

Yes, I have.

You look so happy, I thought it best not to disturb your dreams.

Just coffee, Mary. I'll have it in here with Sir Daniel.

Well, I'll be damned.

Elizabeth, listen to this.

It comes as a great surprise to your correspondent to learn that Sir Norman

Tuskett is to apply for the Chiltern Hunters. He's resigning? Oh, yes.

It's understood that Sir Norman recently accepted a directorship with one of our

most prominent railway companies. And we know which one, don't we?

I'm very glad you're out of all that, Daniel.

Out of what?

The canal.

Well, you haven't mentioned it for so long that... Oh, Daniel, don't tell me

you're still embroiled in that foolish venture.

Oh, very much so, and I'd hardly call it foolish.

I haven't mentioned it of late simply because I didn't wish to upset you.

I see.

So now you make my welfare an excuse for your deviousness.

My understanding of a partnership is that there has to be some degree of

consultation. There should also be a degree of give and take. Now, there are

some issues over which we're bound to disagree. And whenever that happens, you

naturally expect me to give way. Over some issues, yes. That's just a

ship. It's because you seem unable to discuss the matter logically. Only

I don't see it your way.

Elizabeth, trying to discuss this particular project with you is like

red rag to a bull. Now, let us simply agree to differ and leave it at that.

very well, Daniel. If you wish to build a wall between us, so be it.

I've changed my mind, Mary. I shall have breakfast after all.

You and I in partnership?

Don't look so surprised, Lettie.

When it comes to business matters, I can be very astute. Oh, I know you can.

Now, this new top -making machine of yours.

Yes. Do you sell all the flock?

Oh, yes. There's a great demand for it. In fact, I'm thinking of installing a

second machine.

Good. Now, have you ever thought of making up flock mattresses? Oh, no,

couldn't think of anything. I mean, there's the mill, there's the back

there's the sheets and pillowcases for Samuel, and now the flock.

Besides which, you haven't got the room. Well, precisely.

But I have.

And a staff of skilled women, idle most of the time.

The workshop at the door. Of course. Now, look, I've talked it over with

You've already discussed it with Samuel. It would have been pointless my coming

here this morning if I had something definite in mind.

Oh, look, Lettie, I see no reason why all three of us shouldn't make a profit

the venture.

But you know, you've... taken on a new lease of life. I've been worrying about

you needlessly.

Good morning, Aunt Lettie. Mother.

I hope I'm not interrupting.

No, of course not, Samuel.

I wondered if you were ready to go home yet, Mother.

Not quite. I was going to ask Lettie if she would show me this new flock -making

machine of hers. Yes, no doubt. Look at the quality of the flock.

Come on, Sarah. We're not done, Samuel.

Oh, did I hear the doorbell?

Oh, it's you, Samuel.

Well, you can call your cousin a cup of coffee.

Do you want to come? No, thank you, no.

Will you be going to William's party?

Oh, well, I've had an invitation.

Oh, you must come, Samuel. I'd like you to be there.

In that case, of course I shall come.

Samuel.

Can you keep a secret? A deadly, serious secret.

Well, I won't know until you've told me, will I? Only if you promise first.

Very well, I promise.

William has asked me to marry him, and I've said yes.

We're going to be married.

Did you actually propose to the girl? No. She took it for granted that we'd

marry.

William, I'm deeply honoured that you should, um... Well, open your heart to

like this. It couldn't have been easy for you. No.

I felt I had to talk to someone.

Someone who would understand.

I do understand. Believe me.

William, do you love this girl?

I like her.

I'm attracted to her. Then you don't love her.

What the devil am I to do?

Well, men do not necessarily marry for love, providing there is a compensation.

Had Charlotte been James and Eden's only child, in time, the and Eden line would

have passed to you.

But I'm given to understand that there is about to be another heir. Yes.

Then there could be no compensation.

But I just can't desert her. I do have obligations.

Yes, yes, of course you do.

And I'm not for one moment suggesting that you do not honour those

A settlement and a few hundred pounds a year would take care of the matter quite

simply. I don't think Uncle James would quite see it in that light.

Always supposing, of course, that those obligations really are yours.

I don't understand.

Well, I don't wish to pry, but does the young lady have any other suitors? No.

Well, it's my cousin Samuel. They've been to functions together.

Ah.

And is he an ardent admirer? Well, yes, I suppose he is.

Could it be that you're being asked to honour someone else's obligation? No,

Charlotte would never... The question that had to be asked, for your own sake,

William, you have but two choices.

Either marry a girl you do not love, or refuse and face the anger of her family.

But remember, their wrath will not last forever.

Marriage is for a lifetime.

James, are you telling me that neither you nor Lettie will be at this function

tomorrow? Well, haven't I just told you? I shall be in Belfast. I can't be in

two places at once. Well, surely you could postpone your journey for 24

Look, would you allow me to conduct me au pairs myself?

It's for Lettie. Oh, there's no excuse for Lettie not going, but will you meet

your nephew?

Well, I can't go. That's that.

I'll find a present or something.

Oh, very well. If that's your attitude, don't you come preaching to me in the

future about family loyalty.

Well, you're in a very waspish mood today.

Here. You and Daniel being quarrelling again.

Oh, go to Ireland.

All right, then I will.

Uh...

You might call in on Lettie, eh?

Is something wrong?

No, I just thought she might like to have a little talk with you, you know.

A woman's talk. James, have you upset her?

Me? No.

What? No.

No, no, we're fine.

I'm fine.

Well, try hard enough and you'll really convince yourself.

What would you say, Mrs. Nelgrove, if I told you I'd found the site you've been

looking for?

A big damn surprise, considering I've been searching for the last six months.

20 acres with a minimum river frontage of 1 ,500 feet.

That's what I want.

I'll not find it in Liverpool.

Won't you?

Do you know the Fraser shipyard?

Of course I do.

Oh, come on, man.

I mean, tip the wink on that one.

Harbour board's buying it.

Oh, they'd like to.

But as it so happens, a client of mine has outbid them.

Are you sure?

I didn't invite you here to tell you a pack of lies, Snellgrove.

No offence, old man.

It's just that I've had my ear to the ground on that one for some time.

Well, you wouldn't have heard of it because the private business of this

remains private.

I see.

Will this client of yours be willing to resell? No.

I doubt you'd be willing to pay in the region of £200 ,000 for that site.

You could be right.

But supposing my clients were willing to grant, say, a 99 -year lease and an

annual rental of 20 ,000 a year. Would that interest you?

That's a lot of brass.

That's a lot of land.

And for what you require, there could be no better site. I would say it's almost

unique.

I might be willing to consider.

No promises, Mark.

Let's just say I could be interested.

I'll talk matters over with him.

You appreciate, I'm sure, that I do have other clients with similar interests to

your own.

Now, hold that, Beaumont. Am I getting first crack at whip or not? Of course.

You have my word on it.

Good.

Good.

Now, as to these other clients of yours... Put them out of your thoughts.

I'm sure we'll reach an amicable agreement.

I'm sure.

You're off then?

Aye. Well, I need to catch the tide.

Three days, sir?

Well, maybe four.

No more.

Take care.

That's it. I need a bit of... Time.

I know.

It's my fault. I thought I should have told you sooner.

No, no, no.

No, you had your reasons.

I won't keep anything from you again, I promise.

Well, we'll...

Talk about it when I come back, can I?

Hi.

I'm trying to keep sober this time.

Oh, James.

I do love you.

I know so much.

It's because I'm happy.

Funny way of showing this.

Come.

Be back.

I have business in Belfast, Uncle.

Can I take a passage with you?

You're playing truant as well.

What?

Oh, yes, that.

I did send William my apologies, though.

Impressing business.

Yes.

I have it in mind to go into ships' furnishings.

With 50 or more cabins on some of these passenger ships, furnishing them could

be extremely profitable.

Good.

It's been some time since you stole away with me on the Charlotte Road, eh?

Aye, it has, yes.

When you tried to make a man of me.

Go on, steal your gear.

The more I think about it, the more I realize how foolish Captain Baines was

suggesting it would be a boy.

You know, Letty, you worry too much about what James thinks.

The sooner he realizes he can't have everything his own way, the happier you

will be.

Something wrong between you and Daniel again.

Oh, is it obvious?

Stupid man.

But they're all the same, you know.

When a woman marries, no matter what the protestations or promises have been

made before, these are soon forgotten.

She then takes her place alongside all his other chattels.

Unless, of course, one's prepared to fight for some degree of independence.

Yes, well, they would think that you are.

And so should you, Lettie.

I know that brother of mine. Even as a boy, he was determined to have his own

way.

Oh. Well, then, I have nothing to worry about.

Why?

Well, he'll obviously have a son.

I thought there was a breeze coming up, but it's died away to nothing. We're

barely making way.

Well, it won't last.

Not in the Irish Sea, anyway.

We should have taken the steam buckets out.

Oh, no, no, it doesn't matter.

I thought your business was urgent.

And that simply took us to death, then. When it came to fitting out this vessel,

he insisted on revising all the original specifications.

Now the work is all done.

And here he stands, ready to be launched. Now, don't you dare break a

champagne over my head.

Well, traditionally, I should give you a key.

But I give you a key of a different kind.

A key to the future.

Inside this satchel, together with company papers, is a deed.

Transferring my stewardship of the Fraser Yard and Steamship Line to you.

William, in memory of your grandfather, I ask only that you be a good steward.

I now declare you well and truly Lord.

From your mother and I.

Oh, you. Thank you.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you. Well, for someone who didn't want to make a speech, you did

remarkably well. Thank you.

Should we not toast the boys? Oh, good Lord, yes. Now, give me a glass.

Toast, everyone.

To William.

To William.

Speech, William.

Speech.

Oh, yes. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Well, yesterday I wasn't, but today I am officially a man. Although

I'm bound to say I don't feel in the least bit different.

Josiah. Come and rest here with me. It's impeccably time to arrival.

Hector and the feast.

Such a pity that Samuel and James wouldn't have been here, Elizabeth.

Yes, there's nothing quite like family loyalty, is there?

William, I have a present for you, but I'll give it to you later.

Oh, splendid.

You've met my aunt, of course, Josiah. Yes, yes, of course.

Dear lady.

Should you or your son ever need my financial advice, you mustn't hesitate

call on me.

William, is there anything wrong? No, not now, Charlotte. We'll talk later.

Sir Daniel, Lady Fogarty, I do hope that now William has attained his majority,

we might become better acquainted.

Why do you imagine that, Mr Beaumont?

Surely the cause for any disagreement we might have had has now been removed.

Oh, are you leaving Liverpool?

It would be wise not to make an enemy of me, you know.

It's something you'll regret for a very long time, Lady Pockety. How dare you?

Beaumont, if you ever threaten my wife again, I shall make it my business to

you in the gutter where you belong.

Now, come along, Elizabeth.

We don't wish to ruin William's party, do we?

William, I'm afraid we have to go.

So soon?

I see.

Well, I'll say goodnight, then.

Thank you.

Goodnight. Thank you.

I know you want to wait up for me, Charlotte, but it's 11 o 'clock.

It's time you were in bed.

Yes, I suppose you're right.

I'm feeling quite tired.

Thank you very much. Goodbye.

Now, Charlotte.

It's your present, William.

I hope you wear it always.

I can't accept it, Charlotte.

Why not?

Gentlemen, please, leave it.

Charlotte, come. Come, sit down.

I have something to say.

Charlotte, I've given the matter of our future a great deal of thought.

I've considered not only myself, but your happiness as well, both now and in

future.

Charlotte, I know what I'm about to say will hurt you.

Only I beg that you don't think too... too badly of me.

Charlotte, I cannot marry you.

Naturally, I will fulfill my obligations towards you and the child. As long as I

live, neither of you shall want for anything.

Ahoy!

Ahoy!

Anyone aboard?

What's happened?

That steamer.

It's as though she's abandoned.

Ahoy!

No sign of life or a border at all.

A drifting ship in a sea lane.

A hazard nobody wants to meet.

Particularly on a dark night.

Ahoy there!

Perhaps the crew's thick. Too weak to answer.

It's possible.

Marcy, she really has been abandoned.

Spending your salvage money already.

A ship like that would be worth a fortune, even without the cargo.

What will you do, Uncle?

Show us the Belfast.

First thing to do is to get aboard her and have a look around.

Can I go?

What do you think, Bates?

I could do worse.

I heard old Charlie telling the others that he reckoned she was a fever ship.

I don't mind taking the risk.

All right, get your jacket.

Bates, stand by to get a tow line aboard, will you? Aye, aye, sir.

Get the longboats hung out.

Right,

you, uh, get a boat with that tow rope and make it secure.

Samuel, I want you to look around, see if you find anything, and report to me,

eh?

Aye, aye, sir.

Get back to the ship, or Captain Baines will await me orders.

Aye, aye, sir.

Uncle!

Uncle! Anybody on board?

No, the ship's deserted. There's been a fire and it's blown itself out.

Oh, no wonder they abandoned ship.

There's a cargo of high explosives aboard.

You're going to show me?

Aye.

What is it?

Good cotton.

This lot went up.

Break a few windows above that.

And that's about 20 miles away.

Well, what do we do?

Treat it with respect.

Is the cargo going to England or Ireland?

I don't know where it's going.

The large ship's bed was gone. There's no way of telling.

It's interesting to know.

Just who needs a cargo of an explosive like this?

What do you make of that?

You tried to smother the fire with it.

Tried? I'd say they succeeded.

What?

Well, if this blanket had caught alight, I'd have been out left of it. Look at

those.

Back all neat and tidy.

After the fire.

Well, if they put the fire out, then why abandon ship?

Well, did you tell her I'd not wait breakfast any longer? No, ma 'am. Miss

Charlotte wasn't in her room.

Not in her room?

No, ma 'am.

Well, I was up at 6 .30, so she must have gone out before then.

Strange, right?

Well, perhaps she got up to go for an early morning walk. Well,

she's never done it before.

Well, it's the first time for everything, isn't it?

I need to worry, though.

That's right.

Believe me, William, I've tried. But I can assure you they won't go any higher.

175 ,000.

25 ,000 more than the Harbour Board were offering.

I can't see anyone else being interested in the yard. No.

Could buy a lot of steamships on it.

Yeah. Well, I'd better accept their offer.

Good. I'll attend to all the details.

How much is this sort of fellow paying for the fray of the yard, then?

Come now, you can't expect me to betray you.

Well, yes.

I suppose I do owe you that.

£200 ,000.

For 15 acres.

My client is retaining five acres for his own use.

I see.

Right.

I'll pay 205.

Not a penny more.

And I want his answer by this afternoon, yea or nay.

Shoo! Where on earth have you been? I've been worrying myself silly.

Go sit down, dear.

Sarah, where did you find her? She'd been gone for at least six hours. She

she wanted an early morning walk, and she decided to call on me.

Sarah, you said... She must have been walking for hours.

Something has obviously upset her, but every time I start to question her, she

just bursts into tears.

Look, she's not going to say anything with me here, so I'd best go.

Yes, thank you.

Thank you, Sarah. Thank you for bringing her home.

Are you getting up early just to go for a walk?

Did you enjoy the party last night?

I know he was your first love.

Oh, yes, I do.

You feel as though the world's come to an end.

What did

you

say?

I'm carrying William, child.

I've lashed the wheel, Uncle.

Good. What have you found?

Now, look over here.

Just tread very carefully.

You see this?

That's much of glycerin weeding out there.

I've found two other boxes like it.

So it wasn't just because of a fire risk that they abandoned ship?

Downed on stable stock.

At least knock no lock of gold.

What do we do?

We?

You're going back on board ship now.

And you're not?

No, I'm going to see if I can get these boxes out over the side.

Then I'll stay and help.

Samuel, this is very dangerous.

Aye, I know.

I'm going with you.

No use, Uncle. I'm quite determined.

And, er, I could do with a share of that salvage money.

Aye, Chris, you'll need some tackle.

I must have lashed the wheel.

Keep an eye on your course, Helmsman.

I'm ready.

This is what we do.

This way.

Nitroglycerin is creeping out the liver.

So I want you a deck.

If anything goes wrong, stand a chance.

Now, as soon as I've got this box ready, I want you to heel up very gently.

Take it to the side.

And get it overboard very, very slowly.

And for goodness sake, don't knock up against Demi.

Right.

I'll take

it

away.

That's it.

That's uneasy.

That's it.

Dead. Both spots gone?

Yeah.

Right.

What was that?

Samuel!

I'm all right, uncle.

What happened?

The box must have been a piece of driftwood.

I... Take it away.

Someone's approaching.

Better get the boarding ladder down.

And get back to the wheel.

Yes, Uncle.

What the devil do they want?

Hmm. The credentials seem all right, Mr. Hardy.

We heard an explosion.

Oh, did you? I trust you haven't disposed of any of the cargo.

If we hadn't, it would have disposed of us.

And then you'd be pleased to hear that there's a captain from the artillery

coming after the tug. She'll throw in the bell pass.

Oh, no, she won't.

I beg your pardon?

I'm not sharing this sandwich with anybody.

Oh, it's your fellow. This cargo belongs to the government.

I don't care if it belongs to the Queen of Sheba.

The salt is just in there.

And it's going to be paid. That is quite out of the question.

Oh, Eden, you must appreciate that the government shipped this cargo island in

this manner in order to maintain the utmost secrecy.

You do take my point.

Well, I'll tell you what we'll do, then.

We'll agree on a sum.

We'll put our signatures to it here and now.

Then I'll keep it as secret as you like. No, no, that is quite out of the

question.

Sonia! Get ready to leave!

Pass the wheel!

What are you going to do?

Cut that toe line!

He wouldn't do that. Oh, watch me!

Ready to leave, sir!

If you're going to fight me into an agreement, Mr. O 'Neill, you're failing.

But Tug will be here within the hour.

I'm quite happy to wait.

One hour, eh? Yes.

In that case, I should give you time to get it over the side.

What are you talking about?

There's another box down there.

Weeping natural glycerin all over the place.

Aye.

It's the worst one of the lot. It's very unstable.

Sir, I don't think we have much time.

No, I think you're right.

Come on then, let's go. Aye.

All right, O 'Neill.

I must think you have in mind.

What now?

Let's talk.
