What have I got to be scared about, huh?

Why do we have to find them?

Why don't we let them find us?

All right, it's worth a try.

We'll rest here for an hour.

Hey, don't worry.

They've already found us.

I know when I'm being watched.

Oh, I feel filthy.

I'm going to wash up.

Don't pee in the water.

What happened to Jarvis?

Well, you know Jarvis.

He's a loner. He's off in

the jungle by himself.

I don't like the idea of splitting up.

It's too dangerous.

You're the one who left the

eight guys out on the boat.

I deliberately picked a small group.

I didn't want the infants

to feel threatened.

Will you stop calling them infants?

They're five years old, Doc.

I hope you understand me.

'Cause I'm not here to hurt you.

What's this?

Scuba gear.

My God, some divers must

have visited this island.

And recently.

This stuff is brand-new.

Now why would somebody come

here with their gear

and, and leave it on the island?

Unless they didn't leave.

This expedition is all for nothing.

Somebody else made the initial contact.

Regroup everybody.

We're going back.

We'll meet you back at

the base of the falls.

You got it.

Jarvis!

Brewster, where are you?

Jarvis!

Brewster!

I can't get out of this jungle.

For hell's sake, come around here.

Where are you?

They can't hurt you.

I've got the gun.

See?

And Perkins has the other gun.

He's okay.

Remember the a**holes

in the courtroom, Son?

Well, they're back.

They've got different

faces, but they're a**holes

and they're here.

So stay right where you are.

In a couple of hours they'll give up.

When it's dark they'll go.

Now, just wait us out.

What are you doing?

Trying to undermine

everything we're doing here?

How can you side with them

against the human race?

Leave 'em alone.

You should never have come here anyway.

Come here to...

Run!

Tell them to run, too.

That's right!

Run!

This is what's gonna happen

to every goddamn one of you.

The rest of you.

Run!

That's what will happen to 'em.

You should have never come here.

So leave, you a**holes.

Kill it!

Kill it before it wakes up!

Shoot!

Jarvis.

Brewster's dead.

Down by the waterfall.

Dr. Swenson's dead, too.

Get the lady back to the boat.

I'll take care of this.

Go on, get her out of here, come on.

Okay, okay.

You're not him, are you?

Answer me.

We're throwing the guns away.

We don't want to hurt you.

Run.

Throwing the guns away?

What are you, out of your f***in' mind?

We've got to help her.

We can't go back.

I've got to help her.

Jarvis, she's dead.

They got her. She's dead.

They're all dead.

We gotta get back to the crew on the boat.

Jump.

Jump on board.

- You got it?

- Yeah, I got it.

Morrell should have stayed with us.

Whatever she did, she didn't deserve that.

Captain?

Captain?

Is anybody here?

Captain?

Captain?

Perkins!

Swim! Swim like a son of a b*tch.

Come on, why don't you murder me now?

I did everything I could for you.

Come on, you sons of b*tches.

Come on.

I don't know how to run this boat.

You're going to probably

burn the engines out.

What are you doin'?

It's crazy.

You know, the scientists,

they thought that they'd

bring one of you back.

They didn't know that all

of you would wanna come.

We were sitting right there, singing.

ls that a child?

What, did one of you give birth?

Perkins!

Perkins!

Don't leave--

Don't leave me here in this f***in' sun.

Don't leave me.

My doctor said no sun.

You're the one, aren't you?

You're...you're the one in the courtroom, right?

Now is that infant yours?

You reproduce in five years?

That"

that means I'm a grandfather.

If we follow this course,

we'll hit the coast of Florida.

Is that what you want?

Why don't you let me throw

these bodies overboard?

Where's the captain's body?

Huh?

That's not the captain.

Where is he?

You kill them,

you take their clothes.

What else do you do to 'em?

Did you say something to me?

Did you say something to me?

Oh my God.

Oh my God.

You know, I feel like

a lobster in the tank

of a seafood restaurant?

Now, where do you wanna go in Florida?

I'd like to take you to Cuba.

See what Castro would do with you.

He'd probably put you in his paella.

What do you mean, shut up?

Wha--?

You hear, you hear what

I say before I say it?

So I should shut up?

That"

You want me to show you the map?

Okay, fine.

I'm showing you the map and you just point

to where you wanna go.

Cape Vale?

How did you know about Cape Vale?

You know she's there, don't you?

You want to kill her?

You want to kill her

for giving birth to you?

I'd like to kill her

for giving birth to you.

I don't know if I should

guide this boat back

to the Florida coast or scuttle it.

Even if I knew how.

There are three males and a

female on board and an infant.

I haven't seen it.

Maybe Perkins was lucky

staying on that island alone.

Being alone sounds like a terrific idea.

They seem to communicate

amongst themselves

as if they have some

kind of ESP or telepathy.

They read my mind, too.

So I can't take the chance

of wreckin' the boat.

I just try to steer a course.

This is sailing vessel Infinity.

Whiskey Yankee Kilo 5-8-4-0.

Can anyone hear me?

Do you read me?

Do you copy?

Mayday, mayday, mayday.

Mayday, mayday, mayday.

Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.

The bodies of the crew are disappearing.

So far they haven't touched me.

They want me to run the boat.

They think that if I'm

a human being, I should

know how to run a boat.

I've got the manuals and the

maps, but I don't understand

the engines or how to keep on course.

And I'm burning up too much fuel.

The bodies keep disappearin'.

Day by day they're dragged

down into the engine room.

And when they're all gone,

I'm going to look very

appetizing to them.

So far the one I think that

is my son is the only one

keeping me alive.

I don't think he can keep

'em away for much longer.

What are you doing?

Sharks.

Sharks.

Sure!

What the hell good is being shipwrecked

without f***ing sharks?

Man 1:

Come on, you can hear us.

Man 2:

Tell us your name.

Nothing will happen to your family.

Man 1:

The drug will make you sick.

You shouldn't have tried to escape.

It's a long voyage to the Florida coast.

Before you die, maybe you

better tell us who you are.

I'm an American.

They need help at Cape Vale.

You have violated

Cuban territorial waters.

What happened to your boat?

They have the boat and

they're near Cape Vale,

if they haven't run out of fuel.

Well, where am I?

You are the guest of

Premier Fidel Castro.

In a few hours, you will

have formal interrogation.

You will give us the names

of all your CIA contacts.

But I'm not a spy.

He threw me overboard to save my life.

- Who?

- My son.

A fine American family you have.

Your son tried to drown you?

No, please, you speak English.

You must tell them at

Cape Vale and warn them.

We're not on speaking terms with them.

You must know who I am.
