With a sea v iew! Delightful! l don't see anything! Are you sure about your calculations?

Of course they are, idiot! Of course they are! Ev en in this fog! Quite! What on earth is that?

According to my pendulum we should be further west.

Look! An island! That must be Francis Haddock's island! Come! Let's look around! What's that?

Goodness! The remains of Haddock's boat! We're on the right track.

Snowy! What's that?

Why it's Sir Francis! You're right! Thundering typhoons! Nincompoops! Poppingjays! Ghosts! Poppins! Look! There's your ghosts, detectiv es! Sir Francis must hav e taught their ancestors! Well, blistering barnacles! That was a waste of time! Couldn't the treasure be buried on the island?

No! Sir Francis would hav e brought it back.

lt must be in the wreck of the Unicorn.

l hope so.

Ten thundering typhoons! He almost bit my hand off! They're all around! This'll teach them! Calculus! ! Hello! l'm ready.

The clock shows the oxygen.

The red button is a smoke flare.

For when you find the wreck.

Okay, Captain! Lower me down! The Unicorn! Up we go! lt's Tintin! He's surfaced! Tintin's in Strasbourg?

lmpossible! l found it! The Unicorn! Thanks! Start pumping! My air's stopped! Something's wrong! Thundering typhoons! What you doing?

He's got something! lnteresting! A casket! Must be the treasure! He's swallowed the whole bottle! That's the signal to pull Tintin up! Blistering blue barnacles! He sent up a shark! They're old documents.

Oh, no! May l take a look?

Don't lose heart.

We'll keep searching.

On we go pumping On we go! Come on, Captain! Don't be disappointed.

lt hasn't been a total loss.

After all like l said we should hav e gone further west! The treasure hunt ends in failure.

Morning! Morning! l'm returning the documents.

Documents?

What documents?

Oh, l'm fine thanks! Surely you recall the documents from the Unicorn?

This should interest you.

lt seems Marlinspike Hall is Captain Haddocks' estate.

That's it! Prof, you're a genius! Don't you see?

The treasure must be there! The treasure at Marlinspike Hall?

Oh no! Marlinspike's up for sale! Oh dear! Captain, you must buy it at once! What's wrong?

Don't worry about money! l sold my submarine v ery nicely! And since you let me test it l'll buy Marlinspike Hall.



- Wow!

'' Captain! The cross! And here's the Eagle! Look! Sir Francis' island! Red Rackham's treasure! ! Snowy! Someone's coming! Careful! Ready?

Calculus! Mr Tintin, l'm glad you're here.

Nev er between meals! No! No! He understands nothing! l said all's well that ends well! Without doubt! Reminds me of the saying : All's well that ends well.

Wouldn't you agree?

Without any doubt!
