[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

hello

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

why did you let my wife come along

believe me mr hastings i did my best to

discourage her

and she ignored you she was determined

to find you

indeed well i am very eager to see her

you're not worried about her of course

i'm worried we're at war again with the

swords thanks to you

uh that was not professors falsehood i

shot the beast

you do realize what's happened here no

mr hastings you tell us

you've shattered a truce it took me

years to achieve

to the sauroids wrap the flesh as a

dietary staple

to these humans no more than a delicacy

still they insisted on eating it even

though it gave them terrible indigestion

and threatened the raptors with

extinction

[Applause]

for this reason the sauroids and these

humans were continually at war until i

came along

thanks to me they forgot all about the

taste of raptor flesh

until you came in they seem to be making

up for lost time

[Music]

well at least the swords won't eat

how do you know that well apart from

hunting for food

they only kill in self-defense

still they may decide to dissect her

and they sucker

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

the sauroids have a rudimentary science

which is more than i can say for my

tribe

if you think they're primitive now you

should have seen them before i got here

absolutely barbaric until i taught them

english

i had no written language no history

nothing

no agriculture one crop it proved

unreliable

they are fast learners though i'll give

them that especially the women

they do all the cooking the forging

and the cotton what about the men

hunters and hall is a fairly hapless lot

on the whole

did you come with guns yes thank god and

that impressed them

not all of them they seem to worship you

well let's put it this way those that

don't worship me aren't here

[Applause]

what do you want what

do you want

it's you they're asking for i eliminated

this ritual but they seem to have

revived it

you better hurry along before they throw

[Applause]

for you hey

[Applause]

oh

[Music]

um

[Applause]

[Music]

what's he looking for i believe he's

found a friend

very friendly

tell me mr litton where did you meet my

wife

in cambridge massachusetts and you came

together from america

auckland i was against her coming but uh

she insisted she financed expeditions so

i had no choice

and how do you make a living i teach

geology

and paleontology and occasionally

i fight do you win

not always no as for me i teach every

subject

it must be very satisfying

[Music]

it's very beautiful isn't she who my

wife

yes she is and she never despaired of

finding me

no she never did

we're here the sworoid compound

is a day's journey

we'll take along half a dozen hunters

any more than that they tend to get

rambunctious the kind of firearms you

carry

paulie mcnis revolver

tell me how did these people tell time

before you came without the use of the

sun

internal clocks and the weather furnish

is a crude sort of calendar the sky's

darken every 36 hours

or so interesting

this cigar is excellent isn't it

it's um very soothing

analgesic almost you're very observant

mr lytton

theodore

[Applause]

did the earthquake scare you

we have them all the time you did

no

[Music]

[Music]

the music i can ask them to go away

[Music]

what is it

you're troubled

[Music]

you think we've done something wrong

tell me

i'm engaged to be married i don't

understand

[Applause]

where i'm from

men and women when they're in a

relationship

usually they just stay together

before they have children and usually

afterwards

we call it monogamy

and women like this

women especially but

[Applause]

men also sometimes

i'm sorry i should have told you will

you have to tell her

no

there's there's no commandment about

that it's

not hurting people that's that's

generally the role

it's a good rule

[Music]

take cards

[Music]

far

what have you been up to too much

not enough i guess did you get her name

oh yes of course i got her name what do

you take me for calm down jonas he's

only trying to help

that's rama ralna was afraid of that

why she hasn't betrothed

however he's not here he's with the

exiles and according to their law

as long as this man lives no one else is

permitted to be with this woman

[Music]

[Applause]

their village is here halfway to the

sauroid compound

they resented my obsession and refused

to come round

so you banished them let's put it this

way we agreed to live apart

they're a weird like violent destructive

and ruled by the most vicious woman it's

ever been my

misfortune to meet

[Applause]

it's getting late i'd sleep with one eye

open if i were you

thanks for the warning

[Music]

you know it's interesting their

physiology

greater lung capacity heightened night

vision

superior agility

clear oxygen transport mechanisms

must be vastly superior to ours

don't worry uncle we'll find mrs

hastings

if we don't i'll never forgive myself

and if we do that poses another problem

you know the whole time we've been

underground you haven't one time

mentioned us getting back

i don't think you want this thing with

alice to end

have you fallen in love with her jonas

i've given a great deal of thought about

how we're going to get back

and please don't attribute to me those

feelings you have for that girl

why would i do that i don't deny what i

feel

have you and mrs hastings that's none of

your concern

how do you think that her husband knows

knows what

that you care for her

no how could he well i don't know he

seems awfully besides you are so

transparent

am i

i know that you were hoping he was dead

i saw the look on your face when mcniff

found that skull

jonas i've never known you to be cynical

and now that he's alive

you're completely across purposes you're

too young to be talking like this

am i wrong no

you're not wrong

oh look i eat you oh better kill joyce

did you feel that quake before

yes we both felt that jonas more than i

i think

i hear we're headed out in the morning

on our skew mission that's right

this

[Music]

what's your girlfriend's name

beyonce not your fiance the one who's

hot you went into

ralmer rouser yes or somebody had to get

word to her betrothed about you

not me yes about you that's why the

warriors drew straws

so much for loyalty but what's done is

done

[Music]

you see that fellow in front of it

the big guy was here the muscle's the

one waving his axe at us

that's rana's betrothed and i'm sure

he's just dying to see you

now that i've seen her i can't say that

i blame you

the leader the queen marshal

yes she's very beautiful it's only skin

deep i can assure you

and none of my business or anyone else's

exactly

could i have some water please

[Music]

um

[Music]

uh

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

here

[Music]

oh

thank you

[Music]

[Applause]

we're here for the woman you understand

theodore

[Applause]

theodore here

oh thank god

[Music]

hello alice

[Music]

lookout

get out god

come on come on

thank you you saved my life don't

mention it we are considering we killed

three of them i think exit recently i'm

sorry

what did you say it's just an

observation yeah

ah you asked alex just how decent she

thinks they were please casper he didn't

mean anything by it

you keep your observations to yourself

you're in considerable trouble

as it is and neither your tender heart

nor your pacifist sympathies

will do you much use so i can assure you

of that never said i was a pacifist

you just keep your mouth shut calm down

hastings

you were intimate with my wife weren't

you

now casper you have no right to ask me

that question thank you you've just

answered

listen hastings for seven years she was

faithful to your memory

and how do you know that because she

told me

and i believe her

you've been in the classroom too long

professor

don't you bother about it whatever

happened between you two

is forgiven because it's all over

completely over do i make myself clear

[Music]

she and her professor he who loves and

runs away

loves to run another day that was a joke

i've heard better

[Music]

this is my wife

[Music]

her name is alice

give her all the respect that you would

give to me

[Music]

[Music]

casper you've done wonders here didn't

have much choice did i would have gone

mad with boredom

cleaned on cleaved off

but that's all academic now that you're

here

and that you intend on staying here

did i say that no then what are you

planning to do

alice do you find me changed yes i do

in what way you're more come on say

more confident more commanding well when

you're treated like a god

it does tend to enhance your

self-respect i'm a little afraid of you

now to tell you the truth

and you weren't before no not that i was

aware of

maybe that was our problem all good

marriages

are based on fear the fear of

disobliging the other of causing

unhappiness we didn't care enough about

that otherwise i would never have come

on this expedition that's the irony you

see

yes i do see

this fellow theodore

yes fair enough

no questions all around i like that

and that

[Applause]

so

this is gold ore

commoners cole round here until now i

had no way of getting it to the surface

and organizing a commercial expedition

no lanterns

no compass the sea god at all and then i

found

something else something far more

valuable

than all the gold in the world

you're not impressed

i don't know what it is what is this

[Music]

no not till i can trust you again

completely

i wonder if i might get some rest of

course

[Music]

you know we lost one of the men

he defected what does this mean

he joined the others the exiles

why to bring them a message

to the man that you're promised to

jonas i'm sorry

for what

for causing you pain and difficulty

for making you be i'm not certain of

this word

disloyal

unfaithful

we don't have this idea here not like

you do with

man to man yes woman to woman

but no man to woman

do you forgive me for not understanding

i'm not sure i understand myself it's

hard to explain

our costumes have changed so fast since

we were separated from the others

[Music]

why did that happen anyway the school

master

the man you call casper he quarreled

with our leader

as i've seen her

they were lovers weren't they you know

why were they quarreling the school

master wanted to change things

how we lived what we hunted how many

wives a man could have

and of course casper wanted more since

he already had one

nishanna became very angry and she

banished us

she banished you

[Music]

no wonder casper has such a grudge and

so does the man i always promise to

which is why you must be careful

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

what's the matter does it sting i know

it feels wonderful

what is it magic

sleep well

[Music]

[Applause]

[Applause]

i'll bet he's out there watching who

you know he did save my life more than

once and i saved his

so we're equal casper would you mind

putting that out

if i tell you what i've discovered do

you promise not to tell anyone alice yes

even theodore yes no you must swear

i promise

gold has no moral value you found

something of moral value

and it will make us rich my darling

beyond our wildest dreams

casper i've never dreamt of riches

that's because you've always been

wealthy

but it's been your father's money not

your husband's a distinction

you've never quite appreciated if i

could have had you back

i would gladly have renounced my fortune

instead you spent a fortune trying to

find me and i'm going to reimburse you

with this

the natives call it zotan that means

healing smoke you can take this leaf you

can boil it make a salve of it

a tonic and inhalant it has a dozen

forms and

twice as many uses it heals the skin it

clears the lungs it anesthetizes it's

everything ever claimed for any patent

medicine only this is no hoax this is a

real thing this is

a sovereign remedy it's an elixir for

life we'll go down in medical history

people will come from all over the world

to try it the hastings cure

you've been growing these plants no the

villagers here used to grow it but they

seem to have lost their neck

the plants never reach maturity there's

another group an

exile group there the plants flourish

all i need are a few seeds are they

friendly these people

friendly hardly i should say not healthy

yes friendly now

casper what are you planning i must have

these seeds

it sounds fantastical not to mention

dangerous

you can say that after all you've been

through

i should have known don't get upset

that's why i didn't tell you where i was

going because i knew you would squelch

it

[Music]

[Music]

come back

[Music]

[Applause]

yes i see it the rock formation

[Music]

absolutely

[Music]

this is close to where we first came out

i can feel it

passages on the other side maybe we

could sail around it

what do you think uncle perhaps we

should retrace our steps

no

we rely on mr alfred nobel's finest

invention

[Applause]

dynamite

[Music]

wow

[Music]

uh

it worked

what is it

can't you feel that

you don't hear anything no

come on

[Music]

[Applause]

[Applause]

wow oh my it's not the way we came

if we follow that river we'll come out

when we first saw daylight

and it's simply a matter of retracing

our steps to the surface

jonas we must go now

we're almost there

wrong

jonas

[Music]

uh

come on

[Music]

[Laughter]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

uh

wow that's how i explain why the water

and lake roto area came from

hang on

as tight as

yes

[Music]

oh

[Music]

[Applause]

uh

oh

[Applause]

guns no good

[Music]

my majesty i swear to you we had no idea

the rifles were defected

and i am dying

your majesty i think we may be able to

help

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

yoda

[Music]

foreign

there you go

[Music]

dear helen it is strange to know that

the very plant that a man died for has

saved the life of another

but i fear the casper has died in vain

for the plant he was intending to make

his fortune from

withers and dies within hours of being

above ground

such irony i can't say for certain how

long it will be before we are allowed to

leave new zealand

naturally i'm desperate to see you

[Music]

[Music]

if the attitude of the auckland police

is any indication

none of us will be believed but at least

they promise

not to detain us any longer

so we will make the steamer after all

dear helen the pacific crossing has been

smooth um i alone seem to be affected

strange fatigue is set in in the wake of

so much excitement i suppose

well you soon we'll be meeting alice

because theodore has invited her to

cambridge

so that we may all address the

geological society together

[Music]

uh

[Music]

thomas it's just so much

[Music]

at which point my nephew stumbled upon a

european nest or

colony which gave us our first inkling

of a parallel evolution

[Applause]

within a matter of five years

all of the women learned to speak

english most

fluently they

treated us

and most hospitably

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

oh

jonas it's me darling

i'm here ah

i've been asleep all day and night

haven't i

darling you've been asleep for a week

what's wrong with me well no one can say

for sure

all your vital signs return to normal

but still you refused to wake up

even while we were feeding you

apparently you picked up some parasitic

agent when you were on the ground

let's see what i drank or when the

sorrow i called you

the doctors have examined it under a

microscope and it's

it's unlike anything anyone's ever seen

before

the geological society reinstated

theodore and we're scheduled to address

them again in a few months

if you've recovered completely by then

we'd love you to join us for the

presentation

and of course for our weddings

really

congratulations where are you going for

your honeymoon ah

we thought we'd mosey across the charles

river to the commodore hotel

and then next year to iceland theater is

convinced that there's a lake outside of

reykjavik whose source tunnels go even

deeper than roto-era

i don't suppose you'd like to come along

theodore

you must be ravenous jonas we'll go find

you something to eat

[Music]

it breaks off i'm sorry what

your diary there's almost nothing after

you reach the human village until you

emerge from underground

well uh we were in

such a hurry

who's rana

[Music]

uh rona you said that several times in

your sleep

[Music]

did you ask my uncle yes

what did he say i said to ask you

none of my business is it i mean it was

so sweet of you to address all your your

diary entries to me i mean

i know i asked you to but still

i was deeply touched really

[Music]

i'm so sorry i'm sorry for what

i've done nothing wrong i was wrong to

object to the journey i mean not that i

wasn't

hellishly distraught i was the whole

time you were away

but you felt you had to go and risk your

life and our future together and i've

forgiven you for that

young men have a wanderlust and we women

ignore it at our peril

darling you are happy to be home again

aren't you

jonas and we can speculate that the

human males below ground were carrying a

related microbe

which might account for their chronic

mental lethargy

but how then to explain the relative

alertness of the females

i call your attention to the work of

gregor mendel the austrian monk

may we hear from the patient now

dear uncle theodore by the time you read

this i will be at sea

in more ways than one perhaps that will

prove to be the story of my life

perpetual longing perpetual uncertainty

but for now i am following my heart back

to new zealand

i trust that you were looking from time

to time on helen for whose devotion i

will always be grateful

as i am to you for all that you've done

for me not in the least helping me to

vanquish my fears

i regret that i won't be able to join

you and alice in iceland

but i wish you every success and

happiness your loving nephew
