You don't even know

what I'm talking about.

How dare you!

Traditionally speaking...

...isn't it true

the captain goes down with the ship?

Aagh!

(women laughing)

- I got one more. Stand right here.

- Oh, OK.

- This is good.

- OK.

Captain, sweetheart, would you mind

taking a picture with my sister and me?

No. Not at all.

Get in the middle.

Right here. OK.

Say Dallas.

Dallas.

- Ooh!

- Ooh!

Nice tropical shower.

Water's gonna be beautiful tonight, ladies.

Good evening.

No, I'm sorry.

Without ajacket...

...that dress is not appropriate.

(woman) Daddy's right.

I like this dress, and it's fine.

No, no, no.

You look like a clown.

No, I don't.

Well, she's fine.

Let her go.

She'll be back.

Ready...

...now.

(beeping)

(rumbling)

(alarm buzzing)

What the hell is going on?

I don't know, sir.

Where's the chief engineer?

# Let me take you, yeah

# To that place you never been before

# Open up the door to a dream...

This almost seems too perfect, doesn't it?

Want me to step on your feet?

You already did.

Oh. I meant again.

(giggles)

(rumbling and hissing)

Hurry.

- # Oh, whoa

- # Make it

# So beautiful

# Hold me close

# And don't let go...

You know, I left you alone this morning

because I needed to be alone to think.

Yeah.

See, the one thing that's got me

through everything in my life...

...the one thing I could always trust...

...has been my instinct.

It has never been more certain

than it is now.

Really?

Yeah.

What are you saying?

What I'm saying is, uh...

...I think that we should...

(explosion)

(screaming)

Oh, man, no. No, no, no, no.

Come on, keep dancing.

Keep dancing. Come on.

Hold up. Hold on.

Jesus Christ! The main pumps are off!

She ain't pumping out!

Shut down engines three and four!

Get out of here!

Sir!

Look, they're not gonna hold.

Sir.

- Find the captain, will you?

- Yes, sir.

Harvey, it's an earthquake!

It can't be! We're at sea!

Aagh!

Ooh! Oh!

Look out!

Watch it!

No!

This is my vacation! Damn it!

I had nothing to do with this.

It's not working!

(screaming)

(rumbling stops)

(man) It's all right, it's all right.

It's over. It's over.

Ladies and gentleman...

...l'm Liza, your cruise director.

Uh, this is only a minor incident.

Everything will be back to normal

in a few moments.

Why do I really not believe her right now?

(beeping)

Terminal malfunction, structural trauma.

Take a look at these monitors.

We're losing power all over the ship.

I want all emergency teams in position.

Get the coastguard on the line.

I don't care!

Put me onto engine control!

It's dead.

(man) Try the low frequencies.

The signal's gone. I've got nothing.

Engine three's down, sir.

Can we do anything?

Try and run a link to the engine room.

Joe,

issue hand-held radios to all the crew.

And, please, somebody find the captain!

Keep trying.

The system's not responding.

- Yes?

- (Geiger) Mr Juliano.

Looks like

the Seabourn Legend isn't fairing too well.

I advise you

to start the evacuation procedure.

Who is this?

Someone you should start listening to.

I want you to sound the alarm immediately.

Time is running out.

I can't do that. Only the captain can.

The captain is dead, Mr Juliano...

...which means you're now responsible

for the people on this ship.

Don't waste time radioing the coastguard

or code in an SOS.

I've cut off all outside communication.

You don't understand.

Maritime regulations state that...

Mr Juliano,

you are in command of this vessel.

The authority is yours.

I'll make it easy on you, Mr Juliano.

I'd like you to look at

the emergency fire display.

Look at the port side...

...C deck, section 686 on your display.

What the hell do you think you're doing?

(alarm)

My God.

Oops.

See what you made me do?

OK, just wait a minute. Please.

And now

the forward section on the A deck...

...on both sides of the bow thrusters.

Also look at D deck sections 187 and 188.

(beep)

Sir?

All the fires are contained

by fire doors, which I control...

...and will open if necessary.

I've positioned charges throughout the ship...

...and will set them off without hesitation.

Sir, I think you should push the button.

How am I supposed to abandon

the ship while it's moving?

The ship will stop in exactly three minutes.

I give you 15 minutes to evacuate.

Now sound the alarm...

...or I'll burn her down.

Sir,

I really think you should push the button.

(ship's horn)

(alarm blaring)

(PA) Attention. Attention, please.

This is the First Offcer.

All passengers and crew,

proceed to the muster deck.

The Seabourn Legend

is to be immediately evacuated.

This is not a drill.

I repeat, this is not a drill.

Abandon ship for this?

Does that make any sense?

Let's go. Come on.

(man) Everyone through the rear door!

- We've got to find Drew.

- We'll find her, sweetheart.

- She can't hear this!

- I know. We'll find her.

No. No, Frank.

No, I have a feeling about this.

Come on.

(PA) Outside, to the muster deck.

Let's go. Follow me.

(PA) Yes, please keep moving.

- Sulphur.

- What?

- You smell sulphur?

- What do you mean?

Sulphur out of that vent.

I swear I am never leaving the house again.

(PA) Calmly go

immediately to the lifeboat stations.

All hands evacuate.

Engineers and electricians...

...abandon your posts...

...and assist passengers

at your lifeboat assignment.

(man) This way, ladies and gentlemen!

Please hurry! Please hurry!

(man) Everybody, hang on!

Go!

Hey, no!

No! The doors!

Let me out!

This door won't open!

Let me in there!

(bell ringing)

Come on.

This way. Quickly.

Ask him, Rupert, ask him!

Look,

I've got to speak to someone in charge!

He's loading the lifeboats.

You're gonna miss them if we don't hurry.

(pounding on door)

Mum!

Ugh!

Oh, God.

(man) Push away from the ship!

You know what?

I wanna chase something down.

What are you doing?

It seems odd.

They're abandoning ship

in the middle of night.

I'll be right back. Go. Follow the crew.

Uh, no. Alex!

Follow the crew. I'll be right back.

No! Jeez!

Watch your step, ma'am.

Please, please stay seated.

Sorry. Sorry.

Watch your step!

This way!

Huh?

Christ. He's locked us out.

Sir, get yourself to a lifeboat!

Take it easy, man. I'm LAPD.

What? You're what?

What is that?

Have any of these fires been confirmed?

We're loading the lifeboats, sir.

Do you need more confirmation than that?

Yeah.

(alarm ringing)

Last boat! Everybody goes right now!

Everybody, into the boat!

That way, folks! Quickly!

Come on, come on.

Drew.

Help us, somebody!

Drew wasn't in the room.

Celeste, we have looked everywhere!

You guys,

she's probably on another lifeboat.

But we can't leave without her!

Come on.

I'm sure she's fine.

Come on, let's go! Let's go!

(Rupert) Celeste, there isn't time.

Drew's gotten on another boat.

Who's the officer?

I wanna see my sister!

Go, go, go, go!

Alex, come on! It's the last boat!

Come on, sir, we gotta move!
