flying boat has left some time ago I told you search for it sit down

it was a six-hour sail to where he called from here in the Coral Sea

we found no wreckage no survivors this was found on the beach of the island of

Martinique allostery it's a noxious summary one by one of my ancestors during the hunt period it was

in the jewel box that my grandfather carried with him and he boarded that plane the malikova is here captain Troy a long

way from where the plane went down and in the opposite direction of Saigon where the plane was going

how did he get this ring on Marva Coover there's a Chinese merchant a member of

my grandfather's Association and native solder to him and he knew from the inscription in it that had belonged to

the house of Chen both well the rain can't float a plane can I take it this ring has some value a great deal

my grandfather carried other things even more valuable he liked the other old gentlemen were

going to their homeland to spend their last few years of their lives and then to be buried with their ancestors how

much wealth would you say was aboard the plane I only know what my grandfather carried the savings of his whole

lifetime in that little store the others came from different islands they were

merchants and shopkeepers too then they had all of their valuables in the plane too I would like to charter your boat to

find my grandfather now do you really think there's a chance your grandfather's still alive there is a man

who might be of help an American he came from know me on that plane say Sammy put

your shirt on Sammy two blokes is looking for you yeah what they want they

didn't say no drinks now unless they pay for them and not too many if they do

when you're a bottle you best too much crockery yeah take yourself a trip

someplace [Music]

shut your wife that's like it doesn't

know I'm deaf he's Jeannie she keeps me in a bottle anytime she wants something

when she pulls the cork what do you all want we understand you flew in on a plane

that was lost some time ago sorry I got the shakes a little bit this morning

well did you yeah you're looking at a lucky man for once in my life whiskey

kept me out of trouble is that so what kind of trouble the worst kind getting k*lled here's the poor old red

if I'd gotten flashes that morning I'd be down at the bottom of the Coral Sea with him and those poor old Chinese men

yeah lucky all right don't don't rub it in they died and I

didn't easy nobody's blaming you how could they it was an old crate only

thing it was older together with chewing gum and spit I knew it was going down

that's the reason I got drunk that morning oh why don't you go away and leave me alone huh you haven't told us

what we want to know how could I when I don't know what you want to know what was aboard that plane

eight old Chinese and their valuables oh no it's all a lot of boxes bundles

why all the questions we've been asked to look for the plane again this time in

a different place Marva Cooper hmm it's gonna have a look do you think we should

if there's any chance of finding them Brad was a buddy of mine

did you order to get any Colonel Sanders alright fine tally was when the bottles

empty check him out he says then off he goes into the world blue yonder

I wonder what Sam's real reason was for getting drunk that morning I'm wondering why it in bad and I when you mentioned

maverick uber do we take the Charter I think we should

[Music]

lucky for me I was looking for an answer

have you ever seen the night sky over China cap control Adam yes I've seen it

all the stars really brighter there than here well I just depends on what stars

one was born under I guess I was born under days and I've seen the others how

is it you don't speak any Chinese who said I didn't

does he do you doubt I am what I said I was well no I just want to know all

there is to know about you I want you to be more than just a lovely girl named

Monique I was born under a handful of stars someplace in that case I'll answer

your question soon as I could talk I was put into mission school and forgotten by

everybody but my grandfather when my father died I came to Villa to live with

him by then he was too old to think of anything but going home so I let him now

I wish I hadn't but it's too late for wishes to looking back

to the galley I got hungry yeah why just stowaway oh you saw that Daphne I had to

get away from that old battle-ax if she ever heard of the laws of sl*very she never paid the attention to him

shoes eight old men dead and it's all my fault

ocean was my job that take us over the Coral Sea so what happens I get krump

what are you got in the sack food wanna look sure throw it over

must have shifted by boat so that's the reason you were out taking potshots at Troy and his partner huh come off it red well maybe I lost my

head ah not you now where is the stuff

now if I tell you Sammy you're gonna knock me off so I'm not

gonna tell you what are you gonna do about it knock you off that stuff around

you don't find it Sam true true ought to

k*ll you anyway for going off and leaving me I did that for your own good you got a conscience I didn't want you

to live with it oh well that's mighty thoughtful of you rad of course you didn't want everything for yourself

[Laughter] alright Sam you got the upper hand

we'll split now let me go now i can'ts

too late now listen keep your mouth shut about me you want me to help you what's

the point in keeping your mouth shut what's the point in opening it you wouldn't believe me if you really want

to make him talk mr. Troy may as he dares handing him over to some of Turk whose friends are warrant that his

children some of them had red heads for supper shall I well I don't think you

would but I ran into trouble over the

Coral Sea and I put the plane down now I packed the old men and their belongings into a life raft they got scared and

before I knew it they were paddling off without me well I yelled at them to come back but they wouldn't come back they

kept on paddling well the ship was taking water pretty badly and I patched

up some holes in the hull rig up a sail and took off well in about a week I

started this island somehow I got through the reef in the lagoon the bottom was ripped out by a

piece of coral and down she went that's the end of the story

Gary came [Applause]

where do you see in the plane nothing

Gary tani no people nothing didn't I tell you yeah you told me

mr. Troy you're not swallowing that c*ck-and-bull story are you but about the attack on you the ring rule thangs

m*rder short of turning him over to tofu's friends what else do you suggest I do with him lock him up

[Music] first alight there's a lantern in that

box hey I'll suffocate in here say the authority is the trouble of hanging you

while you're doing it think about those eight poor old man yeah let's all think about them

[Music] aren't you gonna lock it

this boat will hold it it couldn't escape without help and who'd help the rogue they weren't in the plane

maybe he ditched them someplace did she understand the place where we're ready

on the authorities they'll be here tomorrow night we'll get the truth out of him then he's dead

he's alive we'll find out [Music]

right now I thought you'd never get here

that crew took their time getting sleep listen can you handle a canoe yeah come

here go right down here to the water's

edge I've got one hidden on the other side of the take it go around the island and pull up okay

and give my shoes boy yeah what happens

if I keep on going you won't empty-handed boy

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

how'd it happen the first time in my life I hit what I was aiming at who learn about if I'm not mistaken it was

mr. Agnew my boy should have covered him by now I saw him sneaking by the house and sent my boy after him but I went

back and checked on the storeroom and I saw this glider heading to the beach and followed him a pity you did how's that dead men can't

talk knife wounds cancer Andros Island

that's where red ditched the old man it's a long way from where he ditched the plane it's the only island around

here that nobody lives on that's true come on you're taking him with you we have to live aboard the Tiki we don't once come aboard like I'm in the

storeroom [Music]

my pet tell your sister to let me be three of us for lunch

[Applause]

they've gone yeah you shouldn't be in so

trusting Sam put it away I will what I've entered it with him working on

I wouldn't the tikkis in the next coat

Pauline the men of this place surrounded I stayed behind to have a little talk with Sam it took some digging to get to

his conscience yes oh I see well let's have a look at

your safe Sam

what beats me is why you and read in your south of it before neither of us can walk on water we have to wait for

the cobra's schooner let me joy how did you see through this innocent facade of

mine you're shot too straight for one thing for another thing Sam here said that no one lived on Andros Island and

you agreed with him I've been there at one of the prettiest girls I've ever

seen on Andros Island how was I to know that besides you were the only one who

came to see wolf Fang was before he was k*lled [Music]

you slob you great big slob

you think those eight old men are still alive make much difference to us whether they are or not they can't hang us eight

times make a lot of difference to me I didn't k*ll read you did anyone

deserved k*lling mr. Wickham did some proper monster not content with my

ruling eight elderly gentlemen beep boo Fang to death and shot and naked he said

that an aluminium was your idea it certainly was not I want them drowned

immediately

we clean try what we've got anything out of me not a word doc even though yeah I

wouldn't be too sure about that he's got a pretty net to give me for getting people to talk better say a prayer or

two Sam while you're about it you might say one for my wife the old girl's been

to be bit down in the mouth when I come back to Wellington in a box with a rope around my neck but perhaps that's better

than not having me come home at all

farther pork

and huh I'm beginning to see my own eyeballs

uncharted item to port

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

I don't believe look [Music]

over a month on this little chunk of sand in coral and they're all still alive just the belly captain just a mere

[Applause] [Music]

the gaskets ooh that's good put her on the winch all right fence
