Captain Nemo and the Underwater City Page #5

Synopsis: When their sailing ship founders at sea, several of the passengers are rescued and find themselves aboard a submarine in the command of Captain Nemo. They are amazed to find that Nemo has built a vast underwater city. Men, women and children all live in harmony in Nemo's idyllic paradise that is free of war and lives off the riches that they've found at the bottom of sea. The new arrivals are distressed to learn however that as they've now seen the city, they cannot leave and must live there for the rest of their days. That doesn't sit well with many of the new arrivals some of whom set about to find a way to leave at whatever cost.

there be some difference?

Not. - And I wish I could

be so honest with Nemo.

He did not provide you

with such a possibility.

Power to. You say the controls are the same as Nautillus?

- Right.

Obviously you will not go.

What will happen to the crew then?

It'll be fine. Someone will be on board,

who will take control

after your landing

and who will return the ship

to the underwater city.

Are you sure about that?

I would not even suggest that I did not.

Is there something I've overlooked?

No, you are very basic.

This plan for running.

When do we start?

Tomorrow's swimming competition.

Yes I know.

It's a great day for kids.

Yes.

Marla, have you ever thought of

living somewhere else? -I'm not.

So simple?

- I can not imagine myself living in another place.

Why are you asking?

Let's just check what I already knew.

And that is?

If I find a way to go.

From the underwater city,

you will not come with me.

I thought you liked it here?

Of course I like it, but I'm...

Marla, Marla... Please come.

You better go with them.

- Sorry, they're excited, they're training for tomorrow.

- Marla?

- Yes?

Nothing.

- Did you enjoy?

- Yes, thank you.

Very nice of you that you

are interested in him.

Nonsense, it's

very fun with him.

Philipe, I think you will

You have to dress dry clothes.

But the clothes underneath me are not wet.

Do what your mother says.

Here you go. Okay.

Philip says he never

met his father.

He died when Philip

had two months.

It was not easy for you. The

woman with her little child.

Captain Nemo, I'm

afraid I misjudged you.

Quite understandably. Suddenly you found

yourself in a completely new environment.

And she acted arrogantly.

We're both.

The circumstances in which we, if I

can say so, have made us both strong.

But I'm just nagging, you may

not have such a strong will.

Well... I'm constantly trying.

Captain Nemo, you surely

often say that you saved us.

We brought you only problems.

Oppressive.

I have a feeling that your saving is

something that I will never repent.

Sit here.

Now listen carefully, Philipe.

Yeah, Mom.

Mr. Fraser found a way to escape.

You think he's coming back? Yes.

You could come with him.

Do we have to, Mr. Fraser?

You do not have a son, you do not have to.

It's a decision your mother will bring.

Please stay!

If you stay that will be forever.

I think we agreed.

I hope you both find

happiness here.

When did he both say if he thought about us?

- Anybody else?

How long have you been standing there?

A few minutes.

I wonder if I can handle your table

when you're done. -Of course.

You do not have to ask. I still

have a lot of work today.

Captain Nemo, can I ask

you something? -Yes.

Would you ever allow yourself

to be personal needs?

Is it between you and

what you believe in?

- Never.

- A loyalty to a person?

As long as I believe

that what I do is right.

Thank you. That's the

answer I expected.

I decided to start two

traditions from now on.

The first is to celebrate the anniversary

of the founding of the underwater city.

Another year of great accomplishments

has passed and I believe

that a year of more

achievements comes to us.

Another tradition, in which I am

convinced that you all know, is...

that speech should be short!

Everything is ready, I'm waiting

for you in the control room.

Where are Barnabas and Svolou?

I have not seen them anywhere.

Mr. Svolou probably completes

his collection from my waste.

You are two jokes that sent

me into a wild goose hunt.

- It's not me, he is.

- Oh.

There will be a "gathering"

headache.

Good luck! Thank you.

Philip decided to break the record.

Adam will have to endeavor...

Twenty seconds.

Forty.

Fifty seconds.

Six... seven... 58 seconds.

Adam's time is... 58 seconds!

Ten seconds.

Ready, Mr. Fraser?

Fifty seconds.

Come on, Philipe!

Five... six... seven... Come on!

58 seconds. Adam and Philip achieved

the same time - 58 seconds.

Secure all locks.

All locks insured, sir.

Turn on the pumps.

I turn on the pumps, sir.

Barnabas, look!

Fraser, come here.

The guards will come.

He'll tell Neme.

We can not leave until

the drain is full.

The drainage is flooded, sir.

What is it?

The fighter took Nautillus II.

Is the whole crew here? Yes sir.

Flush the drain and transfer the engines

to the urgent speed. I understand.

Captain Nemo!

Come on board. Quickly.

Who helped them? Did you know about this?

Answer me, woman!

Robert asked me if I would go

with him if he found a way to go.

I did not know it was already. -And you? Well,

he told me yesterday about this, but...

Open the door to the sea.

I understand, sir.

The door! -Shoot for them.

How... Come on!

- Full speed.

- Full speed, sir.

Be aware that they are

in danger of exploding?

Explode?

Nautillus II has a mistake.

I did not know.

And how? I heard this morning.

Follow us!

Full speed.

You will be in serious trouble,

if the engine is running out.

How can we let them know?

The only way is to get them.

We'll try that

we pass through the sledge. Get

ready and listen to my commands.

They're okay.

We managed! They gave up!

Come here.

Is there a shortcut? Does she have it?

Yes there is.

And why did not we go there?

Because this ship is too big.

Full speed!

I command - to redirect the engines.

Motors redirected.

Full speed right.

Full speed right.

Cave, we sail in.

If we reach the first to the other

end of the cave, we will succeed.

We have a problem in the machine room.

What is it? Turn off the power.

Slow now.

The engine was

completely canceled.

Weld the doors and

prepare evacuation caps.

Turn off all switches.

Advertise a general alarm.

Leave the ship! Leave the ship!

Barnabas! Take this!

It's not going.

Just take what you can take with you!

- Is there any damage?

- Not.

We should meet the

barrier point "Y"

and it would be good for

them to arrive on time!

Come on! Not Barnabas! Hurry!

Barnabas, Svolou, leave the ship!

Come on, Barnaby, leave the ship!

It's too late. Explodes!

How bad is it?

You see, what made your sick loyalty?

We could have avoided this!

But I could not tell you!

- Captain Nemo!

- Joe?

I helped... Fraser...

not gra. John. I wanted... to leave.

We're coming home, sir?

You could not stop this.

Robert never told me when

he thought he was gone.

He asked us only if we

wanted to go, that's all.

We decided to stay.

Captain Nemo, I have a letter for you, from Robert.

- Read it.

"Captain Nemo, your dreams

to create perfectly"

society, they could

change humanity.

Maybe that would be the right answer for

you. But my ambitions are a bit slower.

An even more painful process.

I believe I can persuade

people to see justice in the

works they do for themselves.

Only then... and only

then will they change.

Please forgive me this scam,

because I had to take this beg.

"I wish we would meet

again one day."

Robert Frejzer-

Swallow, look, look!
