Across the Pacific (1942)

- The court is open.
- Yes, sir.
Captain Leland, this court
has considered your case...
...and reached its conclusions
based on evidence...
...introduced while you were present.
At the close of evidence,
court was closed...
...and by secret ballot, in which
two-thirds of the court concurred...
...the court reached its findings.
Which are, of all specifications
and of all charges, guilty.
Then again, by secret ballot, in which
at least two-thirds of the court concurred...
...the court decided your punishment.
Which is that you be sentenced
to dismissal from United States Army...
...and forfeit all pay and allowances
due or to become due...
...subject to approval
of the reviewing authority.
- Any further business?
- No, sir.
Do I hear a motion for adjournment?
- I move that the court adjourn.
- I second the motion.
Any objections? Apparently not.
The court is adjourned
to meet at the call of the president.
How about a game, fellows?
All right, Hanson.
You and me against Greer and Parsons.
Ill take a cue.
Well, captain...
...anything bothering you?
Used to be a custom in the British army
when a man disgraced his uniform.
Too bad we cant do it.
Come in.
Well, Rick?
An officer shouldnt associate with one
who'ss been dishonorably dismissed.
The regulations say so.
The adjutant gave his permission.
In spite of the evidence,
I just cant believe.
Or if you did do it,
you must have had a reason.
One that you thought was important.
Tell me. Im your friend.
Its all in the testimony.
I could have loaned you the money,
or part of it.
And there were others
who would have been glad.
I just cant believe.
You, of everybody I know.
Yeah, I guess nobody
ever really knows anybody.
What are you going to do, Rick?
Ill probably go up to Canada.
- They need artillerymen there.
- But, Rick...
Well, anyway, good luck.
Thanks.
Goodbye.
Sit down.
I see youre an artilleryman,
Mr. Leland.
What is your experience,
and with what type or ordnance?
All types and calibers of both fixed
and mobile coastal guns...
...including one year
in an antiaircraft battery.
Where were you stationed?
Two years at Fort MacArthur,
one year and eight months, Fort Totten...
...one and two months,
Fort Kamehameha...
...four years in the Panama Canal Zone.
Your full name?
Richard Loomis Leland.
- Richard Leland?
- Thats right, sir.
Im sorry, Mr. Leland,
but I believe at this time...
...we have a full compliment
of coast artillery officers of all ranks.
I thought the Canadian army
needed men of experience.
Oh, regardless of his qualifications,
no one man is indispensable.
Maybe Chiang Kai-shek
wont be so particular.
Im aware neither of the desperation
of the generalissimo'ss needs...
...nor how good
are his sources of information.
Good day, Mr. Leland.
Your baggage checks, Ms. Marlow.
The ship sails from Pier 19.
Sailing time will be midnight,
but passengers be aboard by 11:00, please.
Thank you.
What was that boat
you were talking about?
The Genoa Maru,
sailing tonight for Yokohama...
...by way of New York,
the Panama Canal and Honolulu.
- Its for me.
- Excuse, please?
How much?
To port of final destination, $212.80.
Excuse, please. I cannot promise
passage on the Genoa Maru...
...unless we have cancellation.
However, there is possibility.
If you will leave name and address,
I shall inform you in time before sailing.
- Well, when is the next sailing?
- Next Wednesday.
The Nakimura Maru.
Bigger, more passenger space, same fare.
Well, try to make it Genoa Maru.
Ill be packed and waiting.
We trust we can be satisfactorily
of service, Mr. Leland.
- Good night, Mr. Leland.
- Night.
This is Mr. Leland speaking.
The N.Y.K. steamship office call me?
Youre sure?
Well, thanks.
Yes?
Yeah. Yeah, speaking.
The Genoa Maru it is, eh?
Okay.
You send the tickets over,
and Ill pay the messenger.
Right.
- Passenger?
- Yes.
Bags, should-a be.
- What time do we sail?
- Soon.
Ten minutes or half-hour, should-a be.
Should?
- Leland Richard.
- No, Richard Leland.
Should-a be.
- Bed hard?
- Its very hard.
Should-a be.
My name Sugi.
I think Ill call you "SShould-a Be,"
if you don'tt mind.
Should-a be.
For drink.
Wash hand.
Fan.
For read.
Anything else?
Were going to know each other eventually,
so why not now?
That seems reasonable enough.
Im Alberta Marlow.
My names Rick Leland.
Would you mind
stepping into the light?
Please.
Well, on a Jap freighter too.
Youd better pinch me.
I dont think I know you that well.
A pretty girl on a boat with no college boys,
no handsome officers...
...no eligible men of any description.
Thats wonderful.
Youve traveled a lot?
Some, but never so luxuriously.
This is my first time on a big ship.
Well, this is not a ship.
This is a boat.
In Medicine Hat
we wouldnt know about such things.
That where you come from?
How far you going?
Through the Panama Canal to Los Angeles
and then back home by train.
Vacation?
Ill try to make the trip
as pleasant as possible.
Thank you.
- Good night, Mr. Leland.
- Well, now, dont go.
Lets go into the salon and talk.
Sorry. Hope Ill see you
around again soon.
Well probably bump into each other.
- Good night.
- Good night.
- Thick night out.
- Yes, sir.
Cant open the liquor until you get
outside the 12-mile limit?
That is so.
- Silly rule, huh?
- Yes, sir.
- Excuse, please. Yes, sir.
- Yes.
- I presume youre Mr. Leland.
- That'ss right.
Im Dr. Lorenz.
Not much chance of mistaking
ones fellow voyagers on this passage.
Not much.
- May I inquire where youre bound for?
- The Orient.
Excellent. I too.
The Philippines, that is.
I hold the chair of sociology
at the university there.
My man. He doesnt speak English.
That would be T. Oki
of the passenger list?
I take him everywhere.
The Japanese make great servants.
Will this be your first trip
to the Orient?
Never been further than Hawaii.
Indeed? Ive lived and worked
in the Far East going on 30 years.
Oh, thats a long time.
The Oriental way of life
holds a great appeal for me.
Im going to take a turn
about deck before retiring.
- Would you care to join me?
- Thats a good idea.
- Youre an American, are you not?
- Yes.
Then you dont share
my enthusiasm for the Japanese.
I dont know.
Never thought about them.
Wonderful little people. Wonderful.
Greatly misunderstood, believe me.
To know them,
that is...
...to really know them, is to feel
the deepest affection toward them.
I understand we have a charming
young lady passenger aboard.
Yes. A creature
of rare loveliness, doctor.
She walks in beauty.
Im a very, very happy man, but very.
- Usually on a freighter...
- But not this one.
A fellow couldnt do half as well
on a trans-Atlantic liner.
I have no objection
to your discussing me...
...but do you mind doing it farther off?
Im trying to sleep.
Youre fortunate. Fortunate and young.
Occasionally I wish I were young again.
- Good night.
- Good night, sir.
- Good morning.
- Mr. Leland.
- I hope and trust you had a good night.
- I dont remember, so I must have.
You missed something sleeping so late.
We dropped the pilot.
Well, what I came to see I didnt miss.
Are your legs always blue?
- Theyre not blue.
- Should-a Be, give me that blanket.
I dont want a blanket.
I want sunshine.
Your teeth are chattering like a crap game.
This is November, and its winter sunshine.
- Thank you.
- Well, its pure selfishness on my part.
If you catch pneumonia,
what will happen to our romance?
What will happen to it
if you dont shave?
I shall enjoy listening to you two
if youll permit me.
You can referee.
Relationships between
modern young Americans...
...seem most peculiar
to a man of my years.
You give your lovemaking
an assault-and-battery twist.
Living in the Far East has given me
a more or less Oriental view of things.
We were discussing Philippine economics
when we were interrupted.
My own field.
Ms. Marlows kind enough to listen to me.
Theyre going to be free, aren'tt they?
They are, provided America doesnt
insist on fighting a war with Japan.
Its my opinion, however,
that that contingency...
...is going to keep the Philippines
from ever being free.
Wont Japan gobble them up?
No offense, but Japan or Canada
or anybody else can have the Philippines.
Its hot in Manila.
It might be even hotter before long.
Hot enough to go around in shorts?
Theres a Canadian for you.
Let them take their clothes off,
and theyre happy.
Look. An American warship.
Yes, a 1918 Flush Decker.
Four four-inch. 50-caliber guns,
one three-inch. 23-caliber antiaircraft gun.
Not very formidable.
Dont you find that the United States
is inclined to forget...
...that most of the world is at war already,
with more war to come...
...perhaps in the Pacific?
Well, if it comes,
it will have to do without me.
Indeed, Mr. Leland?
You seem about the right age.
Ill see you later.
Very interesting young man.
Very.
I dont believe our captain will mind
my explaining his words.
What he just said means,
'PPermit me to take. "
Something like saying grace
before a meal.
It also expresses his thankfulness
to his ancestors.
That is right. Excuse, please.
I like that.
I come from a long line of grace-sayers.
Excuse, please. Ms. Marlow, Mr. Leland,
Chief Engineer Mitsuko.
How do you do?
Excuse, please.
Chief engineer has no English.
Chief engineer has a good grip.
Some joke.
No, I think Ill skip the bread pudding.
Just bring me some coffee.
I hope youre a good sailor,
Ms. Marlow.
The Genoa Maru has her moments
when a blow comes on.
- I wonder if it will really get rough.
- This is rough.
Not nearly enough. I wanna
go through something I can talk about.
Yes, well, you probably will,
but you may not wanna talk about it.
I think theres something
elemental in a storm.
It appeals more to women than men.
Theyre more elemental.
- Than what?
- Than women.
- Men?
- Than men.
Yes, I hope so, honey.
Im your friend.
Some joke.
I suppose I shouldnt smoke
my cigar right now.
No, let her be happy for a little while.
A little while.
Do you know what Id like to do?
To go up in the bow,
if I had a man to hang on to.
Im your man.
Anyplace, even the crow'ss nest.
Lets go.
- Better bring your coat.
- Gentlemen.
Oh, this is wonderful.
What a figurehead youd make.
Look at the stern,
the way it goes up and down.
It goes down so far, youd think
it would never come up again.
- And look at the way the masts are going.
- Well, dont look too long.
- Keep your eyes off the water below.
- Oh, I feel wonderful.
You are wonderful.
I wish I had a better suit.
It doesnt matter about the suit.
You have a kind face.
- You think so?
- Yes, I do, Rick.
- Thats the first time you called me Rick.
- Is it?
Yes.
Whats the matter?
Look, I didnt mean that.
I did. Why didnt you?
Well, a fellow with a suit like mine
shouldnt go around kissing girls.
Hey, are you getting sick?
I dont know. How do girls usually
act when you kiss them?
- Well, they dont turn green.
- Then I'mm sick. Get me out of here.
And everything was going so beautifully.
Why did you have to eat
that bread pudding?
Should-a Be.
The ladys been stabbed
by a bread pudding.
- Do want you can for her.
- Bread pudding. Too bad.
Should-a be.
Mr. Leland.
You beating it?
Patience is a game
one only plays out of boredom...
...which condition of mine
it does nothing to relieve.
- Will you have a drink with me?
- Thanks. I will.
Have another.
I shouldnt. I'mm strapped.
Sorry to hear that.
But what possible bearing can that have?
If a fellow Im counting on in New York
doesn'tt kick through...
...I wont be able to buy you a drink.
That doesnt alarm me greatly.
Ms. Marlow dying. Want to see Rick.
Excuse me, Ill be right back.
- I understand youre dying.
- Yes.
Do you want to be buried at sea?
They stitch you up in a bag...
- No.
- And you wouldnt like that?
- Then Ill have Should-a Be put you on ice.
- Very amusing, a woman suffering.
Oh, stop being such a baby.
Even if I do live,
Ill never be the same again.
It happens to everybody that eats
bread pudding and looks at a mast.
The mistake I made was in kissing you.
- I was all right till then.
- I resent that.
Ill never let you kiss me again.
We wont argue. You'rre not well,
and you don'tt know what you'rre saying.
I do too.
Stop that.
Dont tell me you'rre the kind that
goes to bed with your shoes on.
I need them on for when I suddenly
have to run down the hall.
All right, darling.
- Ill humor you.
- Humor me?
When youre sitting at the table tonight,
eating your head off...
...think of the girl
whose happiness you wrecked.
- Yes, darling.
- I pity the woman you ever marry.
Oh, Ill never get married.
The kind of a lover I am,
it wouldnt be fair.
Any wife of mine would spend
her whole life running down hallways.
- You arent married, are you, Rick?
- No. Does that make you feel better?
You make me sick.
And if you stay here one minute longer,
Ill prove it to you.
I take it our lovely traveling companion
has a touch of mal de mer.
It was only a matter of time.
She speeded things up
by looking at the mast.
- What a pity.
- Yeah.
She doesnt look too well
with a green face.
From certain remarks you dropped
on deck this morning, Mr. Leland...
...I gather you are quite well informed
in matters pertaining to the U.S. Navy.
Yes, I know a little bit about it.
You were, perhaps, in the Navy?
No. Coast artillery. Army.
How interesting.
Not so interesting.
Were you ever stationed in Panama?
Part of the time.
I hope you dont think
I'mm too inquisitive.
Not at all. Not at all.
Youre furnishing the liquor.
Thats hardly an excuse
for asking a man his history.
I havent got any history.
I was in the Army. I got kicked out.
I went up to Canada and tried to enlist,
they wouldnt have me.
- I cant understand that.
- It'ss simple.
They dont want men that have been
kicked out of another army.
Youre frank, anyhow.
- I admire that quality.
- Why shouldnt I be?
The so-called facts...
...are known in every army post
in this hemisphere.
I understand how you feel.
But you cant afford to be bitter
against your own countrymen.
- Particularly in these troubled times.
- Cant I?
How do you know what I can afford?
Im sorry.
I didnt mean to intrude
an unwanted opinion.
Okay, doc.
Ill hire out to whoever
will pay for my services.
Chiang Kai-shek, Hirohito.
Anybody who will pay.
I cant tell you
how I sympathize with you.
- Were you stationed long in the Canal Zone?
- Quite a while.
I served at Fort Amador and Fort Sherman.
I was attached to staff.
Amador guards the Pacific approach,
doesnt it?
Yeah.
- I think Ive had too much to drink.
- You'rre ill?
Can I help you, Mr. Leland?
Sick? Need help?
Go away.
Tea? Hold the head?
Beat it.
- Too much whiskey. Very sick. Should-a be.
- Beat it.
This is the happiest moment of my life.
My prayers have been answered.
Close the door when you leave.
They have a nice burial at sea.
Go away, will you?
I wanna die alone without a friend.
You will. Is there anything I can do?
Something to make you sicker?
Just hang around.
Keep your shoes on.
I hope youll need them.
- Rick, before I get off the gangplank...
- What?
Are there any stray hayseeds
in my hair?
Now look, angel,
Ive gotta see a friend of mine.
I think I can borrow some money.
You wait here for me.
- Ill only be a few minutes.
- Okay.
Here you are, folks. Here you are.
The collected ingenuity of
the four corners of the Earth for a quarter.
Twenty-five cents apiece.
Every article is unconditionally guaranteed.
If they dont work,
bring them back.
I wont be here.
Here'ss something nice.
Scare your friends.
You wont have many friends.
Whats the matter?
You taking root there?
Step right up, folks. Twenty-five cents.
One-quarter of a dollar.
It amuses the kiddies
and amazes the old folks.
Send you to the madhouse.
Here you are, folks. Here you are.
The collected ingenuity of
the four corners of the Earth for a quarter.
- Eighth floor.
- Eight.
- Eight, please.
- Eight.
Atlas Finance Company.
- One moment, please. Yes, sir?
- Id like to see Mr. Hart.
- May I have your name, please?
- Leland.
Hes expecting you. Go right in.
Yes?
- Well, glad to see you, Captain Leland.
- Colonel Hart.
- Sit down.
- Thank you.
Say, I had to duck a fellow
on the way up here.
White man.
Tall and thin.
Wore a long black overcoat and derby hat.
I think I know the man.
We may soon pay him a visit.
- How did it go up north?
- Everything went about as expected.
But I must say that their rejection
of my army application...
...was just a little bit
on the insulting side.
By the way, how did you manage to
get me on the boat?
Your story was told in the right quarters.
Dr. Lorenz was well informed
about you before you even came aboard.
- Now, theres a girl.
- I know. We'vve been checking on her.
But from what I hear,
I dont think she'ss the type.
- Would she be there if she werent?
- Possibly, but I doubt it.
However, thats up to you to find out.
What'ss she like?
Well, remember the girl you used
to dream about when you were 19?
Why, very well.
- This is her in the flesh.
- I see.
Well, how are you
and the doctor getting along?
Famously, Id say.
Well, dont take too much for granted.
Lorenz is no chump,
or he wouldnt have lasted so long.
He may be just giving you enough rope.
Another thing, remember, on shipboard,
anything can happen to a man.
A box drops on your skull,
a wave washes you overboard.
Ill be careful.
Youre going to have a new shipmate.
Getting aboard is a young man
by the name of Totsuiko, Joe Totsuiko.
A member of the Kokuryukai,
and tough.
A Jap gunsel.
So watch out, if you bump into him.
- Yeah, Ill do that.
- There'ss one other item.
The details of your disgrace
have been widely circulated...
...in Panama and the Pacific.
So you wont be welcomed
exactly with open arms.
Ill be on my own down there?
Smith is expecting you.
No one else knows.
Some big things are brewing.
We have reason to believe theyll boil over.
We dont know how soon
or what side of the pot...
...but theyll involve the canal,
and that'ss where you come in.
Because Lorenz
may or may not be the key man.
Its up to you to find out.
- Success.
- Thank you.
I hope you and the girl
I wanted to marry when I was 19...
...have a nice lunch together.
- Goodbye, sir.
- Goodbye.
- Whos your friend?
- I don'tt know.
I hate to complain,
but hes been pretty nasty.
- Yeah? About what?
- The usual thing.
- Do you want to meet this lady?
- No.
She was under the impression
you wanted to talk.
Not me. I guess I was just
reciting something to myself.
Why dont you recite something to me?
I dont know what you'rre talking about.
I gotta get going.
Its not polite to walk
out on a lady like that.
First, you say youre sorry,
then you say goodbye.
I beg your pardon, lady.
I mistook you for a girl who used
to come in here and sit all the time.
It wont happen again...
- Why didnt you really hit him? Afraid?
- No, he had my number.
- Did you get your money?
- Yeah, more than I expected. Did I talk fast.
In that case, youre going
to get yourself a new suit.
This has been some day
for a girl from Medicine Hat.
Is that a gag, or do you really
come from Medicine Hat?
Whats wrong with Medicine Hat?
Except its cold in winter
and nothing happens there?
You happened there.
Thats enough for me.
By any chance, are you a woman
of means, by any chance, I hope?
My fathers a farmer.
I work in a 10-cent store.
I sell peanut brittle.
I see you whipped up
the gaudy gown that you wear...
...on the family sewing machine.
- Im on your blacklist?
- No, I'mm used to bad luck.
Itll probably end up with
Captain Higoto marrying us.
Oh, no. I want a church wedding
and a groom who has more than two suits.
How long were you in Panama, Rick?
About four years.
You ever hear of a man by the
name of Morton? Dan Morton?
Dan...
Yeah, hes a planter, isn'tt he?
A lot of dough. Why?
Hes related to some friends of mine.
Look him up. He might take a fancy
to you and leave you all his money.
Im not so obsessed
with money as you seem to be.
I can do without it.
Well, you stick around with me
and youre going to get plenty of practice.
We can walk, Rick. Save your money.
This is no time to be a pinchpenny.
Im wooing a girl.
Pier 16.
Someone should tell our little friend that
tight overcoats and guns dont go together.
Hes liable to get picked up by a cop.
Pier 16.
Well, if wed known he was coming here,
we could have given him a lift.
Whats up, Rick?
- You stay here.
- You cant dump me.
- Somethings gonna happen.
- Now, go back.
Dont be an innocent bystander.
They always get hurt.
- You all right, doc?
- Yes.
Do you know him?
I dont think so. At any rate,
he isn'tt a close friend.
Okay, then wed better
send for the police.
If you dont mind,
I'dd prefer that you didn'tt.
Miyuma.
If the police were called
there might be an investigation.
We might not be able to sail.
Its none of my business
what you do with him.
He wasnt shooting at me.
I cant thank you enough, Mr. Leland.
Skip it, doctor. I was just coming onboard
and practically stumbled over the guy.
How you doing, angel?
I think I got pushed
in the face by somebody.
- My... My lipsticks smeared.
- You look cute.
And now, if youll excuse me,
I'lll go to my cabin...
...and faint.
I hope no more of your homicidal friends
are on the pier.
Standing so close to you
might be bad luck.
First Officer Miyuma
is taking care of that.
- You werent kidding.
- I suppose you'rre wondering...
...about this little incident, Mr. Leland.
- No, not particularly.
- You know Im a resident of the Philippines.
In fact, I consider myself
a Philippine national.
And what do the Filipinos consider you?
Its unfortunate that
some of my fellow citizens...
...resent my realistic
attitude toward Japan.
A few of them even go so far
as to call me traitor.
That misguided little man
in the long overcoat...
...undoubtedly believed he was
acting on patriotic principles.
Whatever he believed,
he believed pretty strongly.
If I were you,
just from a health standpoint...
...I think Id give up the Japs.
Im afraid my ties with the Japanese
are rather too close for that.
Financially, spiritually,
ideologically and otherwise.
If those ties involve some
personal danger, I dont mind...
...considering the ultimate reward.
If you dont mind, I shouldn'tt either.
Im being frank with you
because you saved my life.
Naturally, anything I say is in confidence.
Naturally.
All that worries me is that I came
on this trip for my health...
...but I seem to have come
to the wrong place.
Never saw such a
gunned-up boat in my life.
- Really?
- Yes.
Your little Filipino friend had a gun,
Sugis got a gun...
...and that wasnt an apple the first officer
was holding in his pocket.
You got a gun?
Even I, Mr. Leland.
Mines bigger than yours.
I usually like to keep this
locked up in my suitcase...
...but with all these guns around,
whats a fellow gonna do?
I wouldnt worry if I were you.
I wouldn'tt even think about it.
Thanks for the tip.
- Did you have a good time in New York?
- Wonderful.
Saw your man, got your money?
I got it. Ms. Marlow made me
spend it on a new suit.
- Its very handsome.
- Yes.
She seemed to think it made
some improvement.
Ill be hitting the hay.
Anybody else starts throwing slugs at you,
doc, dont forget to duck.
I believe Ill be a little
better prepared. Thank you.
- Good night.
- Good night.
Hey.
Am I nuts, or did I hear some
shooting a few minutes ago?
- Did I miss anything?
- Firecrackers. Chinese New Years.
Maybe I am nuts, but it sounded
like those firecrackers...
...were shot from a muzzle.
- My names Joe Totsuiko.
- Rick Leland.
Im sure glad there'ss someone around
that speaks my language.
Im rooming with a dope named T. Oki.
Hes got his lip buttoned up for good
as far as I can figure out.
- Where you bound for?
- The Orient.
Me too. My old mans sending me
down there to work for one of my uncles.
Say, I wonder if those Panamanian mamas
are all theyre cracked up to be.
Terrific, Joe. Simply terrific.
- Well, Ill see you around, Ricky.
- Yeah, take it easy, Joe.
Without knocking,
and wheres your modesty?
- Whats going on?
- Why, nothing'ss going on.
Not so loud.
Well, that is, nothing except
an attempted assassination.
Why get so excited
about a little thing like that?
Who are you after?
Are you a G-man or something?
- What if I was?
- I just wondered.
Look, Im just a private citizen,
and I happened to be passing a room...
...where one guy was trying
to bump off another guy...
...which, as you know,
happens to be against the law.
'HHappened to be passing. "
You followed our little friend...
...then lied to Lorenz about
stumbling over him.
But you cant do that to me.
If itll make you happy,
I'mm J. Edgar Hoover. This is my badge.
Some joke.
A man should tell the woman
hes going to marry everything.
Well, in that case,
Ill come clean.
What?
I look old, but thats
because I'vve worried a lot.
I havent yet reached
the age of legal consent...
...and if you dont get out,
I'lll yell for help.
All right. You can get
yourself another heiress.
Powder, angel. And when you go,
stop thinking and keep your mouth shut.
Say, I never saw anybody like you.
You never have any clothes on.
If anybody heard you complaining about it,
theyd put you in the psychopathic ward.
You birds of passage do not fight
But help each other in your flight
Japanese build their poetry
like they do their houses.
Read some more, Joe.
Hey, you better turn over.
This sides done.
Cherry blossoms at the well in danger are
See drunken man
I think Ill get drunk.
Your Occidental poet is wont to describe
grand passions and heroic events.
Not so with the Japanese.
Their emotions are stirred
by some tiny fragment of life...
...possessing the quality of beauty.
This he would extract,
reduce, distill, as it were...
...down to its purest essence.
Then they do have emotions?
I mean, like us.
I mean, youre always so calm.
You never show anything.
We are taught not to.
It is our way of life.
We must not show
too much sadness or too much joy.
If you praise what we have,
we say it is nothing.
If you admire our sons,
we must say they are unworthy.
Youre most eloquent today,
Captain Higoto.
- Yes.
- The Nisei arent quite so calm.
Take me, for instance, kid.
Im a live wire.
- What are Nisei?
- Second-generation Japanese.
Those born in the good old U.S.A.
They represent
a very small fraction, fortunately.
- Hope theres nothing personal in that, doc?
- Oh, no.
Excuse, please.
Anybody wanna play shuffleboard?
Not me, Joe. Im sleepy.
How about you, doc?
Shuffleboard? Hardly.
However, a game of gin rummy, perhaps?
Boy, let me at them pasteboards.
At last, were alone.
Now, listen, bright eyes...
No romance. Theres something
very interesting over there, Ricky.
- Where? What do you mean?
- T. Oki.
Its not the same Oki that came down
from Halifax with us.
- Thats another man.
- The heat'ss getting you.
- They all look alike.
- No, they dont.
Not if you examine them closely.
Did you notice how the first Oki stood?
He stood with his head bowed
and his shoulders bent.
This man stands up straight
with his shoulders back.
The first Oki never put
his hands in his pockets.
This man keeps his
in his coat pockets all the time.
Take it easy, angel. Take it easy.
Youre on your way
to being a detective...
...but I wouldnt see too much,
or it might be your last case.
- What do you mean?
- Youre getting a bad burn, you know it?
- I dont feel like I am.
- I'dd go inside and put stuff on.
Oh, its all right.
Remember the bread pudding.
Stick them up.
I was only kidding, Oki.
Dont get sore. Some joke, huh?
Mr. Leland.
- May I come in?
- Yeah. Come ahead.
Well, who won the gin rummy?
As Mr. Totsuiko put it,
I was skunked four times.
- Sit down.
- Thanks.
- Have a drink, doc?
- Thank you.
Amusing fellow, Joe.
Quite.
A little of him goes a long way.
- To your health.
- No, to yours.
- Younger men have more to live for.
- Well, that is if theyre lucky.
Its been my experience,
one has to be smart to be lucky.
Then I hope Ill be smart.
Im interested in you, Mr. Leland.
Especially since you saved my life.
Youre too modest.
Look, if you feel that calls
for some dough...
That isnt my idea,
though it might be worth some help.
Such as?
One night, you told me about your
troubles in the Army.
Id like to hear more about that.
I got in a jam with a dame.
Yes?
I needed some dough.
I had access to the regimental funds...
...so I borrowed it,
intending to put it back, of course.
- Of course.
- But they found out first.
The brass hats couldve given me a chance
if they'dd wanted, but they didn'tt.
They tied me up with pink ribbons
and threw me to the wolves.
You can write your own finish.
Whatever that is to be,
youll need some money.
You can have more when you want it,
within reason, of course.
Whats my part of the deal?
I never discuss
being a traitor with a man.
Youll find it easier if you
don'tt think about that part of it.
- Go ahead.
- Very well.
In a day or two, youll talk to me
about certain installations...
...in the vicinity of
both Balboa and Cristobal...
...with particular reference
to antiaircraft emplacements...
...railway guns and ammunition dumps.
All you have to do
is to remember accurately.
That ought to be worth quite a lot.
Youll find me quite generous.
Youre not only interesting to me now,
you'rre also valuable.
But that shouldnt cause you any anxiety.
Do you mind if it does?
If...
If you were to apply for life insurance,
stating all the facts...
...the companys actuaries might decide...
...there were certain imponderables
existent in your position.
For instance,
having committed yourself...
...I wouldnt want you
to change your mind.
It might turn out to be most unfortunate.
All right.
Remember what I said, Mr. Leland.
About it being easier
not to entertain certain thoughts.
Ms. Marlow burning up.
She say please come quick, put out fire.
Should-a Be.
Oh, boy, oh, boy. Well...
You certainly are a girl of many colors.
First your legs get blue,
then your face turns green...
...now youre red all over.
I never knew what suffering was
until I came on this pleasure trip.
Your trouble is, you know all the answers
till the results are posted.
I knew you couldnt resist
at least one "II told you so. "
Its true. Seeing me in pain
does give you pleasure.
- No, precious, it isnt that.
- Then what are you so happy about?
Well, I just got some money from
Dr. Lorenz for saving his life.
Rick, you didnt actually take
money for saving a man'ss life?
Is there any other reason you know of
why I should take money from Dr. Lorenz?
But Rick...
Oh, Rick, youre not
much account, are you?
I think Ill make a career
out of saving lives.
Listen, precious,
if that bothers you so much...
...youre in for a real shock
when we get to Panama.
How?
Well, youre going to hear some
things about me that aren'tt very nice.
What kind of things?
I believe Ill leave that to the people
who'lll get fun out of telling you.
Will what they tell me be true?
Yes.
Then I wont listen.
Now I know you didnt
come from Medicine Hat.
- Whats all that about?
- Judo is more than a mere contest.
Its devotees form a brotherhood.
Similar, in many respects,
to our Western freemasonry.
It, too, has its degrees
and its secrets...
...as well as its religious, or should I
say, philosophical background.
Come again?
Its an Oriental concept
that destructive force acts upon itself.
And there you have
the principle of jujitsu.
To turn the power
of ones antagonist upon himself...
...and by so doing, vanquish him.
Thats the art of the thing.
How would all that
stack up against a right cross?
Throw one at me, Rick.
- What?
- Go ahead, throw one at me.
- You mean that, Joe?
- Sure I mean it. Sock me one.
All right, you asked for it.
Better get rid of those glasses.
Oh, Rick.
No hard feelings?
- Unfortunate. Most unfortunate.
- Something wrong, doctor?
The canal is being put into repair...
...so far as ships flying
Japanese colors are concerned.
- This ship cant go through?
- Precisely. It'lll have to sail around the Horn.
We shall be forced to get off at Cristobal
and await another boat.
Unless we are prepared to add another
...which I most certainly am not.
So sorry to cause you this inconvenience.
Excuse, please.
Money will be refunded, of course.
Where will you stay, Mr. Leland?
The Pan-American.
Very quiet and respectable.
- That aint for me.
- Where you going?
Ill have to find someplace
where they have a 40-cent lunch.
I know the guy that owns
the Pan-American. Hell give you a rate.
- Perhaps Ill try the Pan-American.
- I hate to recommend places.
Im sure our tastes will be similar.
I see I aint got any folks to meet me.
- Can I give you some directions?
- No, thanks, Rick. Ill find my way.
Its been nice knowing you kids.
I'lll be seeing you one of these days.
Keep your dukes up.
Sayonara, captain.
- Goodbye, captain. Thank you.
- Goodbye.
Here you are. Thank you.
You see a big wave coming, cap,
dont forget to duck.
- Five dollars?
- Forget it. Im a rich man.
Goodbye, captain.
I do not know, but I think I might have
saved Dr. Lorenz some trouble on my boat.
I think he will have
very bad luck with you.
Skipper, everybody has bad luck with me.
- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.
Hello, Leland.
What are you doing back here?
You ought to have more
sense than to come back.
- Its a free country, isn'tt it?
- It sure is, for guys like you.
Sam, this is Ms. Marlow
and Dr. Lorenz.
Very nice you come here.
Pan-American need beauty.
Sam, this lady is very poor...
- Dont mind my parading your poverty?
- Not if it does the trick.
...and I told her that I had
a pull with you.
- Can you take care of her cheap?
- Can do.
I would like a room with
northern exposure, if you please.
All same floor, all close together.
Your room not quite ready.
Maybe so have tea while wait.
Maybe so. Ill be right along.
Office.
- Whats the matter you, Rick?
- What'ss the matter me, Sam?
All the time people say you no good.
Big smell from up north.
Whats the matter you come back?
Too much Army here. Everyone know.
You through with Panama.
Panama through with you.
Well, Sam, maybe I wont be here long.
Maybe so you need money
go other place.
No, Sam, I dont need money.
You no need money? Sam smell big fish.
Sam keep nose clean,
Sam no smell fish, no catchee trouble.
All the time you like trouble.
Maybe so Dr. Lorenz trouble?
- Maybe so.
- Girl too?
I dont know, Sam.
I hope she'ss all right.
She got you bad.
Much trouble.
All the time much trouble.
Sam...
...you can help me.
People tell you things.
People tell me because I dont tell.
I tell, they don'tt tell me anymore.
Okay, Sam. If you dont wanna
help me, you don'tt have to.
- Can do.
- I knew you would, Sam. Thanks.
Be careful.
If I get any more careful,
I wont be any good.
Much trouble.
All the time much trouble.
Key, sir. Room 24.
Thanks. Hey.
Thanks, seor.
Mr. Leland.
- May I pay you a visit?
- Yeah, sure. Come on in.
- Its hot.
- Very.
Ice water, room 24, please.
Well, doc, whats on your mind?
Now that were in Panama, I think
it'ss time you began to earn your money.
Its hot.
Okay, doc. Where do we begin?
Pedro Miguel Locks
will be a good place for a starter.
How many batteries are there?
What are their caliber?
Antiaircraft or heavy stuff?
Begin with the 16-inch guns.
Well, lets see, the last time
I was down here, two years ago...
...there were double railway guns
east and west...
...two twin concrete embrasures
half a mile to the north...
...one four-gun turret of
shore-mounted Navys back of Hill 14.
But whats the idea?
You know all that already.
- Testing me, eh?
- You examined the money I gave you?
Thats right. Do we go on?
We go on.
What specific knowledge have you...
...of the military plane patrol
over the canal area?
Well, two years ago...
What happened two years ago
doesnt interest me.
I want the current schedule
of the patrol planes.
When the flights take off,
exactly what areas they cover...
...what altitude they conduct
their reconnaissance...
...and the precise time of their return.
Ice water, sir.
Now, thats gonna take some getting.
- Ill pay generously for it.
- How much?
- Shall we say $500?
- Shall we say $ 1500?
I said Ill pay generously, not foolishly.
Now, just a minute.
Only place I can get that is Air Force
headquarters. That wont be easy.
May take almost a week of trying
before things begin to break right.
Ill make you a deal.
Fifteen hundred if you get it by 5:00 today.
Five oclock? Why all the rush?
- Theres no rush.
- Just $ 1000 worth?
Remember, Mr. Leland, its your place
to answer questions, not to ask them.
Sorry, I... Im a little new at this game.
Of course, of course.
Oh, and by the way,
dont get the ingenious idea...
...of selling me out
to the American authorities.
It wouldnt pay in the long run.
Wait a minute.
- Who is it?
- Its me.
- How you doing?
- All right.
- You happy?
- Very.
- Whats the program?
- I'mm free as a bird.
I got a couple of things to do.
Meet you at the International Bar at 1:00.
- How do I get there?
- Tell any cab driver. Come as you are.
- What can I do for you, sir?
- I want to open an account.
- Sit down, please.
- Thank you.
- Savings or checking?
- Savings.
And what is the name?
Leland. Richard Leland.
Will you sign there, please?
There you are.
How much did you wish to deposit?
One thousand two hundred
and forty-one dollars.
No one can get close enough to hear us
without our seeing them.
Go ahead with your report,
Captain Leland.
Lorenz is hooked.
Im on his payroll, $350 worth.
He must think youre very valuable.
What have you got?
Not much. Lorenz seems to be head man.
They switched his valet in New York.
The new T. Oki could be a Naval Officer.
He is. Have you any idea
what Lorenz is up to?
No, but Ive got a hunch that whatever'ss
going to happen will happen soon.
He offered me the family jewels
for the canal-patrol flight schedule...
...and he wants it quick.
- We could hardly afford...
- Worth the gamble to keep his confidence.
- We could make up a fake schedule.
- Yes, we could.
All hed have to do is get
a pair of binoculars and a watch...
...to find out hed been tricked.
We better give him the real dope.
Ill phone you if things get to looking dirty,
and you can always change the schedule.
Very well.
Under the circumstances,
I suppose it wouldnt be too dangerous.
Theyd hardly keep those men in Washington
if they intended to pull a fast one.
Should-a Be.
Now, about the schedule.
Oh, yes. Ill have a copy of the schedule
at your hotel this afternoon.
Any more dope about
the girl from Medicine Hat?
She never lived there. Shes a New Yorker.
A buyer for Rogers Fifth Avenue.
Shes made eight trips abroad
in the last two years.
Of course, that could be
part of her work.
Well...
...I guess that slams the door
on Ms. Marlow.
Its a funny thing, though.
She pointed out the Oki switch to me.
Sometimes the best way to gain
a confidence is to give one.
What have you got on a Dan Morton?
Owns a plantation here called Bountiful.
Pardon me.
Age, 55 to 60. Came here in 31.
Heavy drinker. Bit of a dipsomaniac.
Maybe a little cracked.
His plantation has been profitable.
Has substantial accounts in three banks.
Apparently, no entanglements,
either political or feminine.
- Why do you ask?
- She asked me about him.
Said people in Halifax
told her to look him up.
I dont believe anyone with
as much money as Dan Morton...
...would bother with
the small profit that treason pays.
And hes hardly the type to go in for the
excitement. However, you never can tell.
And now, I think youve been
here long enough, captain.
Ill check with you later.
You send the schedule
over to my hotel at 5:00.
Of course youll phone me at
the first suspicion they'rre making use of it.
- And your book, captain.
- Of course.
- Thank you very much, Mr. Smith.
- Good day, sir.
Im sorry to be late, angel.
I was held up.
Oh, I like waiting for you, Ricky.
Wouldnt I make a splendid wife?
- Whatll it be?
- Something cool and long.
Something cool and long.
How about a couple of planters punches?
Fine.
Rick, I had the funniest
feeling coming over here.
I felt as though I were being followed.
A cab stayed right behind mine
all the way over from the hotel.
I may be imagining things,
but I dont think so.
Who do you think would follow you?
I wouldnt know. Would you?
All that funny business on the boat,
what did it mean, Rick?
Who is Dr. Lorenz and what is he up to?
Youre good, angel.
You'rre very, very good.
Dont you think it'ss time
we got together on a few things?
- Such as?
- Who we are and what we are.
Ive told you everything about me.
Now, look, angel,
we can play this dumb or play it smart.
Im in this for what I can get,
and I don'tt think I'mm getting enough.
Now, we can make Lorenz pay off plenty
if we throw in together.
- I dont know what you'rre talking about.
- Come off it.
I dont know how you got in
with Lorenz' crowd, but you'rre in it.
I didnt know Lorenz had a crowd.
Oh, yes, I forgot.
Youre the little lady from Medicine Hat.
It was your twin sister who was
the buyer for Rogers Fifth Avenue.
Couldnt be she held that job so she could
conveniently take trips abroad, could it?
Lets see, how many did she make
two years ago? Three, wasn'tt it?
You mustve gone to a lot of trouble
to find all this.
Sometimes it pays
to go to a lot of trouble.
I dont know what you'rre thinking,
but whatever it is, you'rre mistaken.
Yes? In what way am I mistaken?
- All right, Rick, Ill tell you.
- Well, well, well. The happiness kids.
- Hello, Joe.
- Hello, Joe.
'Pull up a chair, Joe".
Thanks, I will.
Whats that you'rre
knocking yourselves out with?
Hey, waiter, Ill have one of those.
Well, how are we doing?
- All right until this moment.
- Im cramping your style?
- Ms. Marlow?
- Oh, Im Ms. Marlow.
- A telephone call.
- Thats funny. Who could it be?
Well, its easy enough to find out.
This way, please.
You know what I think Ill do?
Take the train into Panama City
and catch a coastline freighter.
Next boat is three or four days
from now.
Its a Chinese boat, and I'mm not so keen
on taking a Chinese boat...
...so I figure Ill be saving time if I catch
a coastline freighter to San Francisco...
...and make new connections there.
- What do you figure on doing?
- Me? I... I dont know yet.
Why dont you string along with me?
We could share a cabin.
- Thats not a bad idea, except...
- Oh, I get it. The little lady.
Cant say I blame you.
She sure is a swell dish.
Too bad about the Genoa Maru
not being let through.
She wasnt a bad ship...
...even though you did
grab the only dame onboard.
I gotta hand it to you, Rick...
...you sure are a fast worker
if there ever was one.
- Ms. Marlow, did she go?
- S, seor, just now.
- The party that called, any name?
- No, seor.
- Anything the matter, Rick?
- No, no, not a thing.
Whered she go? Oh, I get it.
Joe, do me a favor, will you?
If she comes back within 10 minutes...
...ask her to phone the hotel,
let me know where shell be.
- You take care of the check.
- Sure thing, Rick.
Mr. Leland?
- Has Ms. Marlow come back?
- No. Theres something for you.
- Dr. Lorenz?
- Upstair.
- Any calls for him?
- No call.
Hey, Sam, give me a passkey, will you?
Can do.
If she gets back, ring twice, her room.
Will do.
- Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Leland.
- Oh, thats all right.
Has your search revealed anything?
Yes.
Youd be surprised how little
girls wear these days.
I was shocked.
Its 5:05, Mr. Leland.
I believe you said 5:00.
Youre a little fast, but anyway...
I would consider it prudent if you
would cease your attentions to Ms. Marlow.
- Why so, doc?
- Your interest in her...
...is unqualifiedly romantic,
is it not, Mr. Leland?
Between the two of us, doctor,
Im nuts about the lady.
I suggest that you find a safer romance.
Something more permanent.
And now, Mr. Leland, the schedule.
- Look, doc...
- That is it in the envelope, Mr. Leland?
Oh, yes. Thats it, all right.
- Fifteen hundred.
- Now, hold on.
I know I said 1500, but it cost me
that much. Almost, anyway.
- Ill only get a few bucks out of it.
- That'ss your business.
- My business is to take care of myself.
- How much more?
- Lets say 500.
- Very well.
Bear in mind, Mr. Leland,
that such extraordinary procedure...
...doesnt dispose me
towards further dealings with you.
Youve got me all wrong.
It isn'tt that I don'tt wanna play ball.
For all I know, youll hand me
the 1500 and wave goodbye.
Ill be left out in the cold
with nothing to show for it.
If I were on the inside of things...
I shall have to make out a check
for the 500, Mr. Leland.
- Then it is a kiss off?
- For the moment, yes.
- Perhaps in time to come...
- Ive got another proposition.
Sorry, not interested.
No checks, doc.
Im a cash-and-carry man.
But, Mr. Leland, its after 5:00.
The banks are closed.
- Ill never be able to get any such sum.
- Well, then it'ss no dice.
As you say, sir.
Remember, mines bigger than yours.
You overestimate your value to us,
Mr. Leland.
Actually, we have on file
any information you can give us.
Its merely that we like to check
and recheck such data.
In other words, your services
were never at any time indispensable.
Come off it, doc.
- Oh, you doubt me, Mr. Leland?
- No offense.
Im checking out.
Have my bill ready.
Send up a boy for the bags.
Youre leaving, doc?
I must continue my journey.
Goodbye and good luck,
in spite of our little difference.
By Jove, I think you mean it.
Mean what, sir?
What you said about not needing this.
Dispose of it as you will, Mr. Leland.
Okay, doc, you win.
I was only bluffing.
- Lets see the color of your money.
- But I was not bluffing.
The deal is off.
Oh, dont be that way, doc.
After all, I did save your life once.
Youll never know how fortunately
that circumstance has operated for you.
Give me a break, doc.
- How much?
- Fifteen hundred.
A thousand it is.
I guess I deserve it.
- Who is it?
- Bellboy, seor.
Come in.
Give me Colon 893.
Hello.
Can I talk to Mr. Smith?
Smith?
- This is Leland.
- Yes, Mr. Leland, what is it?
I was unable to contact you.
Ive been out all evening.
Now, listen...
...our plans must be changed.
You understand?
Our plans must be changed.
Can you take care of that?
I shall take care of it immediately.
Thank you very much.
Number, please?
Number, please?
Whats the matter you, Rick?
Where you been?
How you get your head-bump trouble?
My pal Dr. Lorenz.
Pretty, eh, Sam?
Dr. Lorenz go 5:15 in private car.
That license number, no good.
Stolen plate.
- What about Ms. Marlow?
- She no come back.
- Much trouble.
- You said it, Sam.
You like movie show, maybe?
Go Ewa Theatre. Buy ticket, 10:00.
- Whats up, Sam?
- Much trouble.
- You got a gun?
- Can do.
Order automobile for front.
Much trouble.
- Thanks, Sam.
- Much trouble all the time.
- Stick around.
- Yeah.
Bountiful Plantation.
Go Bountiful Plantation,
fat man there.
Go quick. Bountiful Plantation.
Lets get away from here fast.
How much further is the house?
Two, three miles.
You better turn your lights off.
Keep your lights off until you get
a mile or two back down the road.
No move.
Up hands.
Rick.
Mr. Leland, I am surprised. Indeed, I am.
But thats the way with you.
Youre always furnishing surprises.
Come in, sir.
Join our little family.
- Hello, Rick.
- Hi, Joe.
Some joke, eh?
Have a seat.
Astounding recuperative powers
you possess, Mr. Leland.
Or should I say, Captain Leland?
Amazing animal energy.
The average man,
given the punishment you received...
...would be flat on his back
for at least a week.
It comes from living a clean life, doc.
I hope you saw
what you came to see, sir.
Yeah. Looks like you boys
are planning to knock over the canal.
You said it. When those
...itll make the Johnstown flood look like
something that happened in a bathroom.
Dont be too sure. Maybe your plane
will never reach the Locks.
Maybe you overlooked something.
Could you suggest anything, sir,
that we might have overlooked?
What about your getaway?
We have a rendezvous
with an undersea boat.
I think youll discover, captain,
that nothing...
...absolutely nothing,
has been left to chance.
Maybe youre right, doc.
It seems you are.
You mind telling me how you got the plane
and torpedo parts into the Canal Zone area?
Not at all.
Piece by piece and bit by bit.
We brought them in cases
of otherwise innocent farm equipment...
...addressed to D. Morton,
Bountiful Plantation.
- D. Morton?
- Mr. Marlow, alias D. Morton.
Her father.
Where do you figure in all this?
I dont, Rick. I never did.
I told you that, remember?
I didnt know what was going on here.
I felt something was wrong.
His letters were so strange.
I wrote him that I would come down.
He said I shouldnt, I might be followed.
Then I got a telegram to go to Halifax
and take the Genoa Maru.
I was going to tell you
when I got the telephone call.
It was Father. He said to come quickly
and to make sure that I wasnt followed.
Thats why I left the way I did.
Nice timing, doc.
I take my hat off to you.
Thank you, sir. Americans are famous
for good sportsmanship.
Tell me, captain, would your attitude
remain the same... Impersonal, objective.
...were you to know that Smith,
Mr. A.V. Smith...
...was unable to act on your last words?
- Stay put, Rick.
- I see the knowledge does affect you.
Its nothing, captain, nothing at all.
They'rre only tuning up the motors.
We have a few minutes yet.
Youd better sit down, Rick.
What do you want?
I will...
Pathetic, is he not, sir?
This rugged individual. Look at him.
Eyes without focus,
flesh without feeling...
...lips with no tongue, utter decay.
He stinks.
Mr. Marlow is a thief.
A lazy, comfortable, drunken thief.
He absconded with his companys funds.
Escaped to Panama with his loot,
assumed another identity.
Felt conscience-stricken.
Mr. Marlows dipsomania enabled us
to introduce our nationals into his employ...
...under the guise of workers
and servants.
In due time, he became a prisoner on,
rather than the master of, this plantation.
Get up. Get up.
His Imperial Highness,
the Prince Kazuo Takamitsu Inoue.
Yeah, weve met before.
You the pilot, Oki?
His Highness asked permission
from the emperor to perform this mission.
As you see, Captain Leland,
I, too, was only kidding.
We have no wish to kill you,
Captain Leland, unless...
Okay, doc, Ill be good.
Joe.
You can sit down now, folks.
Nobodys going anywhere.
You guys been looking for a war,
havent you?
Thats right, Rick.
That'ss why we'rre starting it.
You may start it, Joe,
but well finish it.
Well see, Rick.
Dont get nervous, Rick.
I might lose control of this.
You know something, angel?
- What?
- I wish youd stayed in Medicine Hat.
Rick!
Rick.
Rick.
Well, now, take it easy, angel.
- Have you seen Lorenz?
- Yes, he was running towards the house.
Go ahead.
Whats the matter, doc,
haven'tt you got the nerve?
Youre a soldier, sir.
I appeal to you.
Bullet, here.
Some other time.
I ask you again.
- Do me the honor.
- No, I cant do it.
Youve got a date
with Army Intelligence.
Come on, doc.
You know, youre a great
disappointment to me...
...after that big speech you made
about weakness and decay.
Right on time, eh, doc?
Any of your friends in Tokyo
have trouble committing hara-kiri...
...those boys will be glad
to help them out.
Right down there.
Well, angel?
