Hey.! I got a nibble.

Hey, you got a nibble. I

see another dog in here. Huh?

There's another dog poking his

face... Oh, stop with those dogs!

I... You got a nibble? This is a tough one.

Somebody got

a car up here, driving?

Why?

I hear...

Oh, that's your imagination. You're hearing

things. There's that dog again. Look.

- What? Where? What are you talking about?

- The dog. He keeps looking at me.

I don't see any dog. It's getting

you, boy. It's getting you.

He's fishing, I think. I

ain't gettin' nothin'. Huh?

I am not getting anything.

Wait a minute. I got a bite.

You gotta bite? Yeah. Wait a minute. Whoa.

Hey, I think I got something. I think

I got something now. You got something?

It's a heavy one. It's a

heavy one. Wait a minute.

Oh, I...

I gotta jerk on this line.

Whoa! Tom!

Tom, this is...

Tom, this is the biggest fish

I ever caught, Tom.

Oh, boy!

Get the size of this one, Tom!

Hey, Tom!

This fish is all dressed.

A talking fish.

Hey, Tom?

Hey, Tom?

Tom, I-I got a fish that talks.

Oh, Tom?

Hey, Tom? Tom?

Darn it! Always the big

ones! They always get away!

Hey, Tom,

did you see the size of that fish?

That was me... you!

That was you?

Hey, Tom. Come here.

Now let that

be a lesson to ya.

I'm freezing.

I can feel it.

The last four hours, I might

just as well of been alone.

Well, say something.

Give me your hand.

My arm's freezing.

It's getting stiff.

Oh, new signposts.

No signpost. Looks like walrus.

Oh, no. No walrus.

White man.

Frozen. We take back

to Mukaluk village.

- Which way Mukaluk?

- Me check road map. Me find out.

Good. He's thawed out.

Rosette! Joe!

You better have the doctor

check him.

Heh-heh.

It's Tom.

Tom! Tom!

Take it easy.

Take it easy, kid.

Doctor says he oughta have

his head examined.

You boys will feel a lot better

once you've had some hot food.

I feel much better

now that I've found you and Joe again.

- I wouldn't go through this again for a million dollars.

- It's $2 million.

And it's on the sleds

and ready to be moved.

If you think $2 million is gonna make

any difference to me...

I think so. But it has to be

moved first thing in the morning.

Stillman's on our trail.

Stillman?

Eskimos told us he was at one of

the nearby villages asking questions.

Uh-oh. W-W-We better

get that gold outta here.

Oh, Stillman won't catch up with us.

He has to stop somewhere for the night.

Oh, boys, I want you to meet an old

friend of mine. Canook, chief of the tribe.

Canook says welcome

to his village.

He says he's glad you're feeling better

and any friends of mine are friends of his.

He says you're welcome to stay

in Mukaluk as long as you wish.

Also, you're to be his guests tonight

at the ceremonial dance of the hunters.

Thank him.

Thank him.

Go ahead, you. You know, make

signs. Thank him. Thank him.

What'd he say?

You're welcome.

Sign language.

Hey. Hey.

What'd I say?

Oh, you told him a funny story.

Food! Oh, boy.

Oh, well.

I'm so hungry,

I could eat a whale.

Good. I hope you enjoy it.

Rosette, if we're going to get an early

start, we better finish packing the sleds.

Good eating, fellas. See

you at the celebration.

You know that's whale meat.

I don't know whether

I'm going to like whale meat.

Harpoon!

I- I-I think I hit the spout.

This is all right.

Eat anything when you're hungry.

I- I don't think this whale

is dead yet.

Tastes good.

You know, sometimes when you cut the snake's

head off, it still wiggles in the tail.

I- I don't know what part of meat...

Cut it out!

I- I'm gonna sever your connections,

and you ain't gonna do that no more.

Do that once more.

I dare ya.

That's enough!

In the eye!

That was good. What's the matter,

aren't you gonna eat yours?

Oh, well,

I'll eat it.

Go ahead,

you have a whale of a good time.

What are you perspiring about?

Now, is that nice?

Eskimo men are courageous when

they head out for the open sea

Eskimo shes just wait and freeze

saying, "Blubba, come back to me"

The young and the old

face the bitter cold

And they know

they must not fail

Get a sharp harpoon

and a serving spoon

I wanna hunk of whale

There'll be a hot time

in the igloo tonight

You know a what time

in the igloo tonight

Drape your carcass

with your best parkas

Hitch the caribou

You'll be smilish pulling

your stylish icicle built for two

We'll have wingding

in the igloo tonight

We'll fling a swing-thing

till the temperature is right

So although a blizzard

may blow the zero out of sight

There'll be a hot time

in the igloo tonight

Now how can you tell a boy from

a gal when the Eskimos dress like that

If there's any doubt, Eskimos find out

by removing their partner's hat

There'll be a hot time

in the igloo tonight

A hottentot time

in the igloo tonight

Lose your blues a'dancing

in snow shoes and your furry slacks

Climp-clomp-clumpin'

the joint'll be jumping

And we'll have

a couple kayaks

The wind'll howl round

the igloo tonight

A breeze'll prowl

nipping everything in sight

And although it's 40 below

And you look like Snow White

There'll be a hot time

in the igloo tonight

We've lost the trail. You should

never have letJoe out of your sight.

Well, I couldn't follow too closely. I don't think

they're looking for any missionary out this far.

I think it's a double-cross. We would've been

better off if we stayed in one of the villages.

We'll never be able to

pick up the trail at night.

Well, let's get on over to Mukaluk.

We might pick up some information there.

Yah!

It's drafty in here.

Well, close the door.

Our igloo is gone.

Huh?

Our igloo.

Oh, igloo, where is "oo"? Igloo.

Go on, you dope.

You melted it.

Hey, where is everybody?

Come on. Come on.

Hey. Come on, boy.

Hey, where'd everybody go?

Men on hunt.

Where's Rosette and NuggetJoe?

Back of igloo. Get sled ready.

Oh. Thank you.

Say, come here.

You're a real Eskimo woman.

I wanna tell you

a nice Eskimo joke.

Didn't work.

We'll have to go the long way. Why?

Because this way we'll be crossing the ocean,

and it's almost time for the ice to break up.

Mm. Well, let's get started. Okay.

Okay.

Mush! Mush!

Hey, look!

They look likeJoe's bodyguards.

Good.

If they're around, Joe and that

double-crossing Rosette can't be too far away.

Mush!

Stillman!

Uh-oh. Come on.

Hey.

What's the matter?

Stillman,

and I think he saw us.

Then we better take a chance and cross the

ice before it breaks. Call me Little Eva.

Shh! Here, give me a hand here, will ya?

I'll help you out.

Thank you.

Mush! Mush!

Come on.

Give me a hand.

We'll turn it around.

You boys will have to hold Stillman off

until we cross the ice and hide the gold.

How can we hold Stillman off? There's the ammunition

igloo. You'll find plenty of stuff in there.

You go in there and get plenty of

ammunition. Wait a minute. You're on my foot!

Never mind your foot. You're

on my foot! He's on my foot!

Never mind your foot! Get out. Thank you.
