1. Good afternoon, gentlemen.
Copy !req
2. First off, I'd like to thank this board for
taking the time to hear my proposal.
Copy !req
3. Now, we've all heard
of the legend of Atlantis,
Copy !req
4. a continent somewhere
in the mid-Atlantic
Copy !req
5. that was home
to an advanced civilization,
Copy !req
6. possessing technology
far beyond our own,
Copy !req
7. that, according to our friend Plato here,
Copy !req
8. was suddenly struck
by some cataclysmic event
Copy !req
9. that sank it beneath the sea.
Copy !req
10. Now, some of you may ask,
why Atlantis?
Copy !req
11. It's just a myth, isn't it?
Copy !req
12. Pure fantasy.
Copy !req
13. Well, that is where you'd be wrong.
Copy !req
14. 10,000 years
before the Egyptians built the pyramids,
Copy !req
15. Atlantis had electricity,
advanced medicine,
Copy !req
16. even the power of flight.
Impossible, you say?
Copy !req
17. Well, no. No, not for them.
Copy !req
18. Numerous ancient cultures
all over the globe agree
Copy !req
19. that Atlantis possessed
a power source of some kind
Copy !req
20. more powerful than steam, than coal.
Copy !req
21. More powerful than our modern
internal combustion engines.
Copy !req
22. Gentlemen, I propose
that we find Atlantis,
Copy !req
23. find that power source,
Copy !req
24. and bring it back to the surface.
Copy !req
25. Now, this is a page
from an illuminated text
Copy !req
26. that describes a book called
The Shepherd's Journal,
Copy !req
27. said to have been
a firsthand account of Atlantis
Copy !req
28. and its exact whereabouts.
Copy !req
29. historians have believed
the Journal resides in Ireland.
Copy !req
30. But after comparing the text
Copy !req
31. to the runes on this Viking shield,
Copy !req
32. I found that one of the letters
had been mistranslated.
Copy !req
33. So, by changing this letter
Copy !req
34. and inserting the correct one,
Copy !req
35. we find that The Shepherd's Journal,
the key to Atlantis,
Copy !req
36. lies not in Ireland, gentlemen,
Copy !req
37. but in Iceland.
Copy !req
38. Pause for effect.
Copy !req
39. Gentlemen, I'll take your questions now.
Copy !req
40. Would you gentlemen
please excuse me for a moment?
Copy !req
41. Cartography and Linguistics,
Milo Thatch speaking.
Copy !req
42. Yeah. Just a second.
Copy !req
43. Pardon me, Mr. Hickenbottom.
Copy !req
44. How's that? Is that better?
Copy !req
45. Yeah. You're welcome.
Copy !req
46. - And don't let it happen again.
- All right, bye.
Copy !req
47. Now, as you can see by the...
Copy !req
48. By this map...
Copy !req
49. Map that...
Copy !req
50. That I've drawn, I plotted the route
Copy !req
51. that will take myself and a crew
Copy !req
52. to the southern coast of Iceland
to retrieve the Journal.
Copy !req
53. Ah, showtime.
Copy !req
54. Well, this is it.
Copy !req
55. I am finally getting out of the dungeon.
Copy !req
56. "Dear Mr. Thatch, this is to inform you
Copy !req
57. "that your meeting today has been
moved up from 4:30 p.m. To 3:30 p.m."
Copy !req
58. What?
Copy !req
59. "Dear Mr. Thatch, due to your absence,
Copy !req
60. "the board has voted
to reject your proposal.
Copy !req
61. "Have a nice weekend.
Mr. Harcourt's office."
Copy !req
62. They can't do this to me!
Copy !req
63. I swear, that young Thatch
gets crazier every year.
Copy !req
64. If I ever hear the word "Atlantis" again,
Copy !req
65. I'll step in front of a bus.
Copy !req
66. I'll push you.
Copy !req
67. - Mr. Harcourt!
- Good Lord!
Copy !req
68. - There he is!
- Members of the board... Wait.
Copy !req
69. - How did you find us?
- Mr. Harcourt, wait!
Copy !req
70. Head for the hills!
Copy !req
71. Where is a guard when you need him?
Copy !req
72. Mr. Harcourt, you gotta listen to me, sir!
Copy !req
73. Sir?
Copy !req
74. Wait! Mr. Harcourt!
Copy !req
75. Sir, I have new evidence that...
Please, Mr. Harcourt!
Copy !req
76. Stop! Sir, if you... Could you hold...
Copy !req
77. Thank you very much. Look at...
Copy !req
78. This museum funds
scientific expeditions
Copy !req
79. based on facts,
not legends and folklore.
Copy !req
80. Besides, we need you here.
Copy !req
81. - We depend on you.
- You do?
Copy !req
82. Yes. What with winter coming,
Copy !req
83. that boiler's going to need
a lot of attention.
Copy !req
84. - Boiler?
- Onward, Heinz!
Copy !req
85. But there... There's a journal!
Copy !req
86. It's in Iceland! I'm sure of it this time!
Copy !req
87. Sir, I really hoped
it wouldn't come to this,
Copy !req
88. but this is a letter of resignation.
Copy !req
89. If you reject my proposal, I'll...
Copy !req
90. I'll quit!
Copy !req
91. I mean it, sir.
Copy !req
92. If you refuse to fund my proposal...
Copy !req
93. You'll what?
Copy !req
94. Flush your career down the toilet,
Copy !req
95. just like your grandfather?
Copy !req
96. You have a lot of potential, Milo.
Copy !req
97. Don't throw it all away
chasing fairy tales.
Copy !req
98. But I can prove Atlantis exists!
Copy !req
99. You want to go on an expedition?
Copy !req
100. Here. Take a trolley
to the Potomac and jump in!
Copy !req
101. Maybe the cold water will
clear your head. Heinz!
Copy !req
102. I'm home.
Copy !req
103. Fluffy? Here, kitty.
Copy !req
104. Milo James Thatch?
Copy !req
105. Who... Who are you?
How did you get in here?
Copy !req
106. I came down the chimney. Ho, ho, ho.
Copy !req
107. My name is Helga Sinclair.
Copy !req
108. I'm acting on behalf of my employer,
Copy !req
109. who has a most intriguing
proposition for you.
Copy !req
110. Are you interested?
Copy !req
111. Your employer?
Copy !req
112. Who is your employer?
Copy !req
113. This way, please.
Copy !req
114. And don't drip on the Caravaggio.
Copy !req
115. Step lively.
Copy !req
116. Mr. Whitmore does not like
to be kept waiting.
Copy !req
117. You will address him
as "Mr. Whitmore" or "sir."
Copy !req
118. You will stand unless
asked to be seated.
Copy !req
119. Keep your sentences short
and to the point.
Copy !req
120. Are we clear?
Copy !req
121. And relax.
Copy !req
122. He doesn't bite... often.
Copy !req
123. Grandpa?
Copy !req
124. Finest explorer I ever met.
Copy !req
125. Preston Whitmore.
Pleasure to meet you, Milo.
Copy !req
126. Join me in a little yoga?
Copy !req
127. No, no. Thank you.
Copy !req
128. Did you really know my grandfather?
Copy !req
129. Oh, yeah. Met old Thaddeus
back in Georgetown.
Copy !req
130. Class of '66. We stayed close friends
till the end of his days.
Copy !req
131. Even dragged me along
Copy !req
132. on some of his danged fool expeditions.
Copy !req
133. Thatch was crazy as a fruit bat, he was.
Copy !req
134. He spoke of you often.
Copy !req
135. Funny. He never mentioned you.
Copy !req
136. Oh, he wouldn't.
He knew how much I like my privacy.
Copy !req
137. I keep a low profile.
Copy !req
138. Mr. Whitmore, should I be
wondering why I'm here?
Copy !req
139. Look on that table.
Copy !req
140. It's for you.
Copy !req
141. It's from my grandfather.
Copy !req
142. He brought that package
to me years ago.
Copy !req
143. He said if anything
were to happen to him,
Copy !req
144. I should give it to you
when you were ready.
Copy !req
145. Whatever that means.
Copy !req
146. It...
Copy !req
147. It can't be.
Copy !req
148. It's The Shepherd's Journal.
Copy !req
149. Mr. Whitmore, this journal is the key
Copy !req
150. to finding the lost continent of Atlantis!
Copy !req
151. Atlantis.
Copy !req
152. I wasn't born yesterday, son.
Copy !req
153. No, no, no. Look. Look at this.
Copy !req
154. Coordinates. Clues. It's all right here.
Copy !req
155. Yeah, looks like gibberish to me.
Copy !req
156. That's because it's been written
in a dialect that no longer exists.
Copy !req
157. - So it's useless.
- No, no, just difficult.
Copy !req
158. I've spent my whole life
studying dead languages.
Copy !req
159. It's not gibberish to me.
Copy !req
160. Ah, it's probably a fake.
Copy !req
161. Mr. Whitmore,
my grandfather would have known
Copy !req
162. if this were a fake. I would know.
Copy !req
163. I will stake everything I own,
everything that I believe in,
Copy !req
164. that this is
the genuine Shepherd's Journal.
Copy !req
165. All right, all right.
So, what do you want to do with it?
Copy !req
166. Well, I'll get funding.
Copy !req
167. - I mean, I'll... The museum...
- They'll never believe you.
Copy !req
168. I'll show them! I will make them believe.
Copy !req
169. Like you did today?
Copy !req
170. Yes! Well, no. How did you...
Copy !req
171. Forget about them, okay? Never mind!
Copy !req
172. I will find Atlantis on my own.
Copy !req
173. I mean, if I have to rent a rowboat!
Copy !req
174. Congratulations, Milo.
Copy !req
175. This is exactly what I wanted to hear.
Copy !req
176. But forget the rowboat, son.
Copy !req
177. We'll travel in style.
Copy !req
178. It's all been arranged,
the whole ball of wax.
Copy !req
179. Why?
Copy !req
180. For years, your granddad bent my ear
Copy !req
181. with stories about that old book.
Copy !req
182. I didn't buy it for a minute.
Copy !req
183. So, finally, I got fed up
and I made a bet with the old coot.
Copy !req
184. I said, "Thatch, if you ever
actually find that so-called journal,
Copy !req
185. "not only will I finance the expedition,
Copy !req
186. "but I'll kiss you full on the mouth."
Copy !req
187. Imagine my embarrassment
when he found the darn thing.
Copy !req
188. Now, I know
your grandfather's gone, Milo,
Copy !req
189. God rest his soul,
Copy !req
190. but Preston Whitmore
is a man who keeps his word.
Copy !req
191. You hear that, Thatch?
Copy !req
192. I'm going to the afterlife
with a clear conscience, by thunder!
Copy !req
193. Your grandpa was a great man.
Copy !req
194. You probably don't realize how great.
Copy !req
195. Those buffoons at the museum
dragged him down,
Copy !req
196. made a laughing stock of him.
Copy !req
197. He died a broken man.
Copy !req
198. If I could bring back
just one shred of proof,
Copy !req
199. that'd be enough for me.
Copy !req
200. Ah, Thatch.
Copy !req
201. What are we standing around for?
We got work to do.
Copy !req
202. But, Mr. Whitmore,
you know, in order to do
Copy !req
203. what you're proposing,
you're gonna need a crew.
Copy !req
204. Taken care of.
Copy !req
205. You'll need engineers and geologists.
Copy !req
206. Got 'em all. The best of the best.
Copy !req
207. Gaetan Moliere,
geology and excavation.
Copy !req
208. The man has a nose for dirt.
Copy !req
209. Vincenzo Santorini, demolitions.
Copy !req
210. Busted him out of a Turkish prison.
Copy !req
211. Audrey Ramirez.
Don't let her age fool you.
Copy !req
212. She's forgotten more about engines
than you and I will ever know.
Copy !req
213. They're the same crew that
brought the Journal back.
Copy !req
214. - Where was it?
- Iceland.
Copy !req
215. I knew it! I knew it!
Copy !req
216. All we need now is
an expert in gibberish.
Copy !req
217. So, it's decision time.
Copy !req
218. You can build on
the foundation your grandfather left you
Copy !req
219. or you can go back to your boiler room.
Copy !req
220. - This is for real.
- Now you're catching on.
Copy !req
221. All right. Okay. I'll have to quit my job.
Copy !req
222. It's done. You resigned this afternoon.
Copy !req
223. - I did?
- Yep. Don't like to leave loose ends.
Copy !req
224. My apartment.
I'm gonna have to give notice.
Copy !req
225. - Taken care of.
- My clothes?
Copy !req
226. - Packed.
- My books?
Copy !req
227. - In storage.
- My cat?
Copy !req
228. My gosh.
Copy !req
229. Your granddad had a saying.
Copy !req
230. "Our lives are remembered,
by the gifts we leave our children."
Copy !req
231. This journal is his gift to you, Milo.
Copy !req
232. Atlantis is waiting.
Copy !req
233. What do you say?
Copy !req
234. I'm your man, Mr. Whitmore.
Copy !req
235. You will not regret this.
Copy !req
236. Boy, I am so excited,
Copy !req
237. I can't even hold it in.
Copy !req
238. Carrots. Why is there always carrots?
Copy !req
239. I didn't even eat carrots.
Copy !req
240. Attention. All hands to the launch bay.
Copy !req
241. To whoever took the "L"
from the Motor Pool sign,
Copy !req
242. ha-ha, we are all very amused.
Copy !req
243. Excuse me? I need to report in?
Copy !req
244. Yes, Mr. Thatch?
Copy !req
245. It's you!
Copy !req
246. Blondie, I got a bone to pick with you.
Copy !req
247. Hold that thought.
Copy !req
248. What is it this time, Cookie?
Copy !req
249. You done stuffed my wagon full to
busting with non-essentials.
Copy !req
250. Look at all this.
Copy !req
251. Cinnamon, oregano, cilantro.
Copy !req
252. What in the cockadoodle is cilantro?
Copy !req
253. And what is this?
Copy !req
254. That would be lettuce.
Copy !req
255. Lettuce? Lettuce?
Copy !req
256. It's a vegetable, Cookie.
Copy !req
257. The men need
the four basic food groups.
Copy !req
258. I got your four basic food groups!
Copy !req
259. Beans, bacon, whiskey, and lard!
Copy !req
260. All right, cowboy.
Pack it up and move it out.
Copy !req
261. Attention. All hands to the launch bay.
Copy !req
262. Final loading in progress.
Copy !req
263. Hey, Junior.
Copy !req
264. If you're looking for the pony rides,
they're back there.
Copy !req
265. Excuse me. Excuse me?
Copy !req
266. You dropped your dynamite.
Copy !req
267. What else have you got in there?
Copy !req
268. Oh, gunpowder,
nitroglycerin, notepads,
Copy !req
269. fuses, wicks, glue, and...
Copy !req
270. Paper clips. Big ones.
Copy !req
271. You know, just office supplies.
Copy !req
272. Milo! Where you been?
Copy !req
273. I want you to meet Commander Rourke.
Copy !req
274. He led the Iceland team
that brought the Journal back.
Copy !req
275. Milo Thatch.
Copy !req
276. Pleasure to meet the grandson
of old Thaddeus.
Copy !req
277. I see you got that journal. Nice pictures,
Copy !req
278. but I prefer a good western myself.
Copy !req
279. Pretty impressive, eh?
Copy !req
280. Boy, when you settle a bet,
you settle a bet.
Copy !req
281. Well, your granddad always believed
Copy !req
282. you couldn't put a price
on the pursuit of knowledge.
Copy !req
283. Well, believe me,
this'll be small change
Copy !req
284. compared to the value
of what we're gonna learn on this trip.
Copy !req
285. Yes, this should be
enriching for all of us.
Copy !req
286. Attention, all personnel.
Copy !req
287. Launch will commence in 15 minutes.
Copy !req
288. - Mr. Whitmore.
- Rourke.
Copy !req
289. It's time.
Copy !req
290. - Bye, Mr. Whitmore!
- Make us proud, boy!
Copy !req
291. Rig ship for dive!
Copy !req
292. Aye, sir! Rig ship for dive.
Copy !req
293. Lieutenant, take her down.

Copy !req

303. You have disturbed the dirt.
Copy !req
304. - Pardon me?
- You have disturbed the dirt!
Copy !req
305. Dirt from around the globe,
spanning the centuries!
Copy !req
306. What have you done?
Copy !req
307. England must never merge with France!
Copy !req
308. - What's it doing in my bed?
- You ask too many questions.
Copy !req
309. Who are you? Who sent you?
Speak up!
Copy !req
310. - Me? I'm...
- I will know soon enough.
Copy !req
311. Hey, hey, hey! Let go!
Copy !req
312. Do not be such a crybaby. Hold still.
Copy !req
313. A-ha! There you are.
Copy !req
314. Now, tell me your story, my little friend.
Copy !req
315. Parchment fiber from
the Nile delta circa 500 B.C.

320. There are all the microscopic
fingerprints of the mapmaker.
Copy !req
321. And linguist.
Copy !req
322. - Hey, how did you...
- This is an outrage!
Copy !req
323. You must leave at once!
Out, out, out, out, out!
Copy !req
324. Sat in the dirt, didn't you?
Copy !req
325. Moliere, now what have I told you
Copy !req
326. about playing nice with the other kids?
Copy !req
327. Get back. I've got soap,
and I'm not afraid to use it.
Copy !req
328. Back, foul creature!
Back to the pit from which you came!
Copy !req
329. The name's Sweet.
Copy !req
330. Joshua Sweet. Medical officer.
Copy !req
331. Yeah, Milo Thatch.
Copy !req
332. Milo Thatch. You're my 3:00.
Copy !req
333. Well, no time like the present.
Copy !req
334. - Oh, boy.
- Nice, isn't it?
Copy !req
335. The catalog says that this little beauty
Copy !req
336. can saw through a femur in 28 seconds.
Copy !req
337. I'm betting I can cut that time in half.
Copy !req
338. Now, stick out your
tongue and say, "Ah."
Copy !req
339. Oh, no, really. I have a...
Copy !req
340. So, where you from?
Copy !req
341. Really? I have family up that way.
Copy !req
342. Beautiful country up there.
Do you do any fishing?
Copy !req
343. Me? I hate fishing. I hate fish.
Copy !req
344. Hate the taste, hate the smell,
and hate all them little bones.
Copy !req
345. Here, I'm gonna need you
to fill these up.
Copy !req
346. With what?
Copy !req
347. Will Milo Thatch
please report to the bridge?
Copy !req
348. Thank you.
Copy !req
349. I mean, nice meeting you.
Copy !req
350. Nice meeting you, too.
Copy !req
351. So I says to him,
"What's wrong with my meatloaf?"
Copy !req
352. And he says to me...
Copy !req
353. Hold on a second, Margie,
I got another call.
Copy !req
354. Sir, we're approaching coordinates.
Copy !req
355. Hello, Margie?
Yeah, so anyways, he says...
Copy !req
356. All right, let's have a look around.
Copy !req
357. Aye, sir. Set course to two-four-zero.
Copy !req
358. Aye, aye, sir.
Copy !req
359. 15 degrees down angle
on the bow planes.
Copy !req
360. Come right two-four-zero.
Copy !req
361. Welcome to the bridge, Mr. Thatch.
Copy !req
362. Okay, everybody,
Copy !req
363. I want you to give Mr. Thatch
Copy !req
364. your undivided attention.
Copy !req
365. Good afternoon.
Can everyone hear me okay?
Copy !req
366. Okay, how about some slides?
Copy !req
367. The first slide is
a depiction of a creature.
Copy !req
368. A creature so frightening
Copy !req
369. that sailors were said
to be driven mad by the mere sight of it.
Copy !req
370. I'm sorry. That's wrong.
Copy !req
371. Geez, I used to take lunch money
from guys like this.
Copy !req
372. Anyway, this... Okay.
Copy !req
373. This is an illustration of the Leviathan,
Copy !req
374. the creature guarding
the entrance to Atlantis.
Copy !req
375. With something like that,
Copy !req
376. I would have white wine, I think.
Copy !req
377. It's a mythical sea serpent.
Copy !req
378. He's described in The Book of Job.
Copy !req
379. The Bible says,
Copy !req
380. "Out of his mouth go burning lights,
Copy !req
381. "sparks of fire shoot out."
Copy !req
382. But more likely, it's a carving or
a sculpture to frighten the superstitious.
Copy !req
383. So we find this masterpiece.
Then what?
Copy !req
384. When do we dig?
Copy !req
385. Actually, we don't have to dig.
Copy !req
386. You see, according to the Journal,
Copy !req
387. the path to Atlantis
will take us down a tunnel
Copy !req
388. at the bottom of the ocean,
and we'll come up a curve
Copy !req
389. into an air pocket right here,
Copy !req
390. where we'll find the remnants
Copy !req
391. of an ancient highway
that will lead us to Atlantis.
Copy !req
392. Kind of like the grease trap in your sink.
Copy !req
393. Cartographer, linguist, plumber.
Copy !req
394. Hard to believe he's still single.
Copy !req
395. - You said there'd be digging.
- Go away, Mole.
Copy !req
396. Captain, you'd better
come look at this, sir.
Copy !req
397. Okay, class dismissed.
Copy !req
398. Give me exterior lights.
Copy !req
399. Look at that.
Copy !req
400. There are ships here from every era.
Copy !req
401. Commander, I think
you should hear this.
Copy !req
402. Commander? Commander?
Copy !req
403. "Enter the lair of the Leviathan."
Copy !req
404. Commander?
Copy !req
405. "There you will find the path
to the gateway."
Copy !req
406. - Commander?
- Yes, Mrs. Packard. What is it?
Copy !req
407. I'm picking up something
on the hydrophone
Copy !req
408. - I think you should hear.
- Put it on speakers.
Copy !req
409. What is it? A pod of whales?
Copy !req
410. Bigger.
Copy !req
411. It sounds metallic.
Copy !req
412. Could be an echo off one of the rocks.
Copy !req
413. Do you want to do my job? Be my guest.
Copy !req
414. Is it just me, or is that getting louder?
Copy !req
415. Well, whatever it was, it's gone now.
Copy !req
416. Helmsman! Bring us about.
Copy !req
417. Tighten our search pattern
and slow us to...
Copy !req
418. Out of the way!
Copy !req
419. Tell Cookie to melt the butter
and break out the bibs.
Copy !req
420. I want this lobster served up
on a silver platter.
Copy !req
421. Load the torpedo bays!
Sub pod crews, battle stations!
Copy !req
422. Battle stations!
Copy !req
423. Steady, boys. Don't panic.
Copy !req
424. Jiminy Christmas! It's a machine!
Copy !req
425. Wait, wait!
Copy !req
426. Launch subpods!
Copy !req
427. Subpods away!
Copy !req
428. Fire!
Copy !req
429. We're free. All ahead full.
Copy !req
430. Fire torpedoes!
Copy !req
431. Fire torpedoes!
Copy !req
432. Get me the bridge!
Copy !req
433. Sir, it's Engineering on four.
Copy !req
434. Rourke! We took a big hit down here,
Copy !req
435. and we're taking on water fast.
Copy !req
436. I don't want to be around
when it hits the boilers.
Copy !req
437. How much time do we have?
Copy !req
438. Twenty minutes, if the bulkhead holds.
Copy !req
439. You better make that five.
Copy !req
440. You heard the lady. Let's move!
Copy !req
441. Move! Where? Move where?
Copy !req
442. Packard, sound the alarm!
Copy !req
443. He took his suitcase?
Copy !req
444. Marge, honey,
I don't think he's coming back.
Copy !req
445. - Packard!
- I have to call you back.
Copy !req
446. No, no, I'll call you.
Copy !req
447. All hands, abandon ship.
Copy !req
448. Move it, people!
Sometime today would be nice!
Copy !req
449. Come on! Everybody
grab a seat and buckle in.
Copy !req
450. Lieutenant, get us out of here!
Copy !req
451. - Lieutenant!
- I'm working on it!
Copy !req
452. Hang on.
Copy !req
453. Where to, Mr. Thatch?
Copy !req
454. We're looking for
a big crevice of some kind.
Copy !req
455. There! Up ahead.
Copy !req
456. All craft, make your mark
20 degrees down angle.
Copy !req
457. Roger! 20 degrees down angle.
Copy !req
458. Right behind you!
Copy !req
459. - Sacré bleu!
- We're getting killed out here!
Copy !req
460. Look out!
Copy !req
461. It's only a grease trap.
It's just like a sink.
Copy !req
462. It's only a grease trap.
It's just like a sink!
Copy !req
463. Seven hours ago,
we started this expedition
Copy !req
464. with 200 of the finest men and women
I've ever known.
Copy !req
465. We're all that's left.
Copy !req
466. I won't sugarcoat it, gentlemen.
Copy !req
467. We have a crisis on our hands.
Copy !req
468. But we've been up
this particular creek before,
Copy !req
469. and we've always come through,
paddle or no paddle.
Copy !req
470. I see no reason
to change that policy now.
Copy !req
471. From here on in,
everyone pulls double duty.
Copy !req
472. Everyone drives, everyone works.
Copy !req
473. Looks like all our chances for survival
rest with you, Mr. Thatch.
Copy !req
474. You and that little book.
Copy !req
475. We're all gonna die.
Copy !req
476. Okay, people. Saddle up.
Copy !req
477. Lieutenant, I want this convoy
moving five minutes ago.
Copy !req
478. Moliere, you're on point.
Copy !req
479. No, Vinny, Audrey's taking the oiler.
Copy !req
480. You know the rules. I want you 50 yards
Copy !req
481. behind that truck at all times.
Copy !req
482. And, Packard, put out that cigarette.
Copy !req
483. Are you sure you're checked out
on this class of vehicle?
Copy !req
484. Can you drive a truck?
Copy !req
485. Of course I can drive a truck.
Copy !req
486. I mean, sure, you got your steering,
Copy !req
487. and your gas, and your brake,
Copy !req
488. and of course, this metal-looking thing.
Copy !req
489. Okay, so it was a bumper car
at Coney Island,
Copy !req
490. but it's the same basic principle!
Copy !req
491. Come on! Move it!
Copy !req
492. Sorry about... Sorry about that.
Copy !req
493. Come on, civilian!
Copy !req
494. You didn't just drink that, did you?
Copy !req
495. That's not good.
Copy !req
496. That's nitroglycerin.
Copy !req
497. Don't move.
Copy !req
498. Don't breathe.
Copy !req
499. Don't do anything, except pray, maybe.
Copy !req
500. Boom!
Copy !req
501. Yeah.
Copy !req
502. Good night!
Will you look at the size of this?
Copy !req
503. It's gotta be half a mile high, at least.
Copy !req
504. It must have taken hundred...
Copy !req
505. No, thousands of years
to carve this thing.
Copy !req
506. Hey, look, I made a bridge.
Copy !req
507. It only took me, like, what?
Copy !req
508. 10 seconds, 11, tops.
Copy !req
509. Looks like we have a little roadblock.
Copy !req
510. Vinny, what do you think?
Copy !req
511. I could un-roadblock that
if I had about 200 of these.
Copy !req
512. Problem is, I only got about 10.
Copy !req
513. Plus, you know, five of my own,
Copy !req
514. and a couple of cherry bombs,
a road flare.
Copy !req
515. Hey, too bad we don't have
some nitroglycerin, eh, Milo?
Copy !req
516. Looks like we're gonna have to dig.
Copy !req
517. It will be my pleasure.
Copy !req
518. Stupid...
Copy !req
519. Stupid!
Copy !req
520. I don't understand it.
Copy !req
521. I just tuned this thing up this morning.
Copy !req
522. It looks like the rotor's shot!
Copy !req
523. I'm gonna have to pull
a spare from one of the trucks.
Copy !req
524. - Can I. ..
- No toques nada!
Copy !req
525. I'll be right back.
Copy !req
526. She lives!
Copy !req
527. Hey, what'd you do?
Copy !req
528. Well, you know, the boiler in this baby
Copy !req
529. is a Humac model P-54 stroke 813.
Copy !req
530. Now, we got the 814
back at the museum.
Copy !req
531. The heating cores
on the whole Humac line
Copy !req
532. have always been a little,
you know, temperamental,
Copy !req
533. so sometimes you gotta... Boom!
Copy !req
534. Persuade 'em a little.
Copy !req
535. Yeah, yeah. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
536. Shut up.
Copy !req
537. Two for flinching.
Copy !req
538. This is it. It's gotta be.
Copy !req
539. All right, we'll make camp here.
Copy !req
540. Why is it glowing?
Copy !req
541. It is a natural phosphorescence.
Copy !req
542. That thing is going to
keep me up all night, I know it.
Copy !req
543. Come and get it!
Copy !req
544. For the appetizer, Caesar salad,
Copy !req
545. escargot, and your oriental spring rolls.
Copy !req
546. - Yuck.
- I wanted the escargot.
Copy !req
547. Knock yourself out.
Copy !req
548. There you go, Milo.
Copy !req
549. Put some meat on them bones.
Copy !req
550. Thanks, Cookie.
That looks greasier than usual.
Copy !req
551. You like it? Well, have some more.
Copy !req
552. You're so skinny,
if you turned sideways
Copy !req
553. and stuck out your tongue,
you'd look like a zipper.
Copy !req
554. You know,
we've been pretty tough on the kid.
Copy !req
555. What do you say
we cut him some slack?
Copy !req
556. Yeah, you're right.
Copy !req
557. Hey, Milo!
Why don't you come sit with us?
Copy !req
558. Really? You don't mind?
Copy !req
559. Nah. Park it here.
Copy !req
560. Gee, this is great.
Copy !req
561. I mean, you know,
it's an honor to be included in your...
Copy !req
562. - Mole!
- Ah, forgive me.
Copy !req
563. I could not resist.
Copy !req
564. Hey, Milo,
don't you ever close that book?
Copy !req
565. Yeah, you must've read it
a dozen times by now.
Copy !req
566. I know, but this...
This doesn't make any sense.
Copy !req
567. See, in this passage here, the shepherd
Copy !req
568. seems to be leading up to something.
Copy !req
569. He calls it the heart of Atlantis.
Copy !req
570. It could be the power source
the legends refer to.
Copy !req
571. But then, it just... It cuts off.
Copy !req
572. It's almost like there's a missing page.
Copy !req
573. Kid, relax.
Copy !req
574. We don't get paid overtime.
Copy !req
575. I know, I know.
Copy !req
576. Sometimes I get a little carried away.
Copy !req
577. But hey, you know,
that's what this is all about, right?
Copy !req
578. I mean, discovery,
teamwork, adventure.
Copy !req
579. Unless, maybe...
Copy !req
580. You're just in it for the money.
Copy !req
581. - Money.
- Money.
Copy !req
582. - Money.
- Money.
Copy !req
583. I'm gonna say... Money.
Copy !req
584. Well, I guess
I set myself up for that one.
Copy !req
585. What, is something
wrong with your neck?
Copy !req
586. Oh, yeah, I must've hurt it when...
Copy !req
587. Better?
Copy !req
588. Yeah!
Copy !req
589. Hey, how'd you learn how to do that?
Copy !req
590. - An Arapaho medicine man.
- Get outta here.
Copy !req
591. Born and raised with 'em.
My father was an army medic.
Copy !req
592. He settled down in the Kansas
Territory after he met my mother.
Copy !req
593. - No kidding.
- Nope.
Copy !req
594. I got a sheepskin from Howard U,
Copy !req
595. and a bearskin from old Iron Cloud.
Copy !req
596. Halfway through medical school,
I was drafted.
Copy !req
597. One day I'm studying gross anatomy
in the classroom,
Copy !req
598. the next, I'm sewing up Rough Riders
on San Juan Hill.
Copy !req
599. Main course.
Copy !req
600. I couldn't eat another bite.
Copy !req
601. I'm watching my weight.
Copy !req
602. Don't you worry.
Copy !req
603. It'll keep and keep and keep.
Copy !req
604. Thank God I lost my sense of taste
years ago.
Copy !req
605. Aren't you going to pitch up your tent?
Copy !req
606. I did.
Copy !req
607. I guess I'm still a little rusty at this.
Copy !req
608. I haven't gone camping since...
Copy !req
609. Well, since the last time
my grandpa took me.
Copy !req
610. I never got to meet your grandfather.
Copy !req
611. What was he like?
Copy !req
612. Where do you start?
Copy !req
613. He was like a father to me, really.
Copy !req
614. My parents died when I was
a little kid, and he took me in.
Copy !req
615. What?
Copy !req
616. Well, I was just thinking.
Copy !req
617. One time, when I was eight,
Copy !req
618. we were hiking along this stream,
Copy !req
619. and I saw something
shining in the water.
Copy !req
620. It was a genuine arrowhead.
Copy !req
621. Well, you'd think I'd found
a lost civilization
Copy !req
622. the way Grandpa carried on about it.
Copy !req
623. It wasn't until I was older
that I realized that the arrowhead
Copy !req
624. was just some compressed shale
Copy !req
625. mixed with zinc pyrite that had fractured
Copy !req
626. into an isosceletic triangulate.
Copy !req
627. That is so cute!
Copy !req
628. Say, Audrey, no offense,
Copy !req
629. but how does a teenager
become the chief mechanic
Copy !req
630. of a multimillion dollar expedition?
Copy !req
631. Well, I took this job
when my dad retired.
Copy !req
632. But the funny thing was
he always wanted sons, right?
Copy !req
633. One to run his machine shop
and the other
Copy !req
634. to be middleweight boxing champion.
Copy !req
635. But he got my sister and me instead.
Copy !req
636. So, what happened to your sister?
Copy !req
637. She's 24-0 with a shot
at the title next month.
Copy !req
638. Anyway, I'm saving up
Copy !req
639. so my papi and I
can open another shop.
Copy !req
640. Forget your jammies, Mrs. Packard?
Copy !req
641. I sleep in the nude.
Copy !req
642. You're gonna want a pair of these.
Copy !req
643. She sleepwalks.
Copy !req
644. Well, as far as me goes,
Copy !req
645. I just like to blow things up.
Copy !req
646. Come on, Vinny, tell the kid the truth.
Copy !req
647. My family owned a flower shop.
Copy !req
648. We would sell roses,
Copy !req
649. carnations, baby's breath, you name it.
Copy !req
650. One day, I'm making
Copy !req
651. about three dozen corsages
for this prom.
Copy !req
652. You know, the one
they put on their wrist.
Copy !req
653. And everybody, they come.
"Where is it?"
Copy !req
654. "When is it?"
"Does it match my dress?"
Copy !req
655. It's a nightmare.
Copy !req
656. Anyway, I guess
there was this leak next door
Copy !req
657. of gas or what. Boom!
Copy !req
658. No more Chinese laundry.
Copy !req
659. Blew me right through the front window.
Copy !req
660. It was like a sign from God.
Copy !req
661. I found myself that boom.
Copy !req
662. What's Mole's story?
Copy !req
663. Trust me on this one.
You don't wanna know.
Copy !req
664. Audrey, don't tell him. You shouldn't
have told me, but you did.
Copy !req
665. And now, I'm telling you,
you don't wanna know.
Copy !req
666. The redhead's got a gun.
Copy !req
667. Holy...
Copy !req
668. Fire.
Copy !req
669. Fire!
Copy !req
670. Fire!
Copy !req
671. Fire!
Copy !req
672. Fire!
Copy !req
673. I'm gonna kill him.
Copy !req
674. Thatch, go back to bed.
Copy !req
675. Get some water on that fire!
Copy !req
676. No time!
Copy !req
677. Get us into those caves!
Copy !req
678. Move it! Move it! Move it!
Copy !req
679. Gertie, pull!
Copy !req
680. Milo, jump! Right now!
Copy !req
681. No,no,no,no,no,no, no!
Copy !req
682. All right, who's not dead? Sound off.
Copy !req
683. Danged lightning bugs
done bit me on my sit upon.
Copy !req
684. Somebody's gonna have to
suck out that poison.
Copy !req
685. Now, don't everybody jump up at once.
Copy !req
686. Audrey, give me a damage report.
Copy !req
687. Not as bad as it could have been.
Copy !req
688. We totaled rigs two and seven,
Copy !req
689. but the digger looks like it'll still run.
Copy !req
690. Lucky for us
we landed in something soft.
Copy !req
691. Pumice ash.
Copy !req
692. We are standing at the base
of a dormant volcano.
Copy !req
693. It just keeps going.
Copy !req
694. Maybe that's our ticket outta here.
Copy !req
695. Maybe not.
Copy !req
696. The magma has solidified
in the bowels of the volcano,
Copy !req
697. effectively blocking the exit.
Copy !req
698. I got the same problem with sauerkraut.
Copy !req
699. Hold on. Back up.
Copy !req
700. Are you saying this whole volcano
can blow at any time?
Copy !req
701. No,no,no, no.
Copy !req
702. That would take
an explosive force of great magnitude.
Copy !req
703. Maybe I should do this later, huh?
Copy !req
704. If we could blow the top off of that thing,
Copy !req
705. we'd have a straight shot to the surface.
Copy !req
706. Mr. Thatch, what do you think?
Copy !req
707. Mr. Thatch?
Copy !req
708. Thatch?
Copy !req
709. Hey, wait!
Copy !req
710. Who are you? Where are you going?
Copy !req
711. Come back!
Copy !req
712. Hey, wait a minute!
Copy !req
713. Who are you?
Copy !req
714. Sweet mother of Jefferson Davis!
Copy !req
715. It's beautiful.
Copy !req
716. Milo, I gotta hand it to you.
Copy !req
717. You really came through.
Copy !req
718. I take that back.
Copy !req
719. Holy cats! Who are these guys?
Copy !req
720. - They gotta be Atlanteans.
- What? That's impossible!
Copy !req
721. I seen this back in the Dakota.
Copy !req
722. They can smell fear
just by looking at ya.
Copy !req
723. So, keep quiet.
Copy !req
724. I think it's talking to you.
Copy !req
725. Parlez-vous francais?
Copy !req
726. Oui, monsieur!
Copy !req
727. They speak my language!
Copy !req
728. Pardon, mademoiselle.
Copy !req
729. Voulez-vous...
Copy !req
730. I like her.
Copy !req
731. 'Bout time someone hit him.
Copy !req
732. I'm just sorry it wasn't me.
Copy !req
733. How do they know all these languages?
Copy !req
734. Their language must be
based on a root dialect.
Copy !req
735. It's just like the Tower of Babel.
Copy !req
736. Well, maybe English
is in there somewhere.
Copy !req
737. We are explorers
from the surface world.
Copy !req
738. We come in peace.
Copy !req
739. Welcome to the city of Atlantis.
Copy !req
740. Come. You must speak
with my father now.
Copy !req
741. Squad head back
to the shaft and salvage what you can.
Copy !req
742. - Yes, sir!
- We'll rendezvous in 24 hours.
Copy !req
743. Let's move it. You heard him.
Copy !req
744. I'm so excited!
Copy !req
745. Now, what's really amazing is that
Copy !req
746. if you deconstructed Latin,
you overlaid it
Copy !req
747. with a little Sumerian,
throw in a dash of Thessalonian,
Copy !req
748. you'd be getting close to
their basic grammatical structure.
Copy !req
749. Or at least you'd be
in the same ballpark...
Copy !req
750. - Someone's having a good time.
- Like a kid at Christmas.
Copy !req
751. Commander, there were
not supposed to be people down here.
Copy !req
752. This changes everything.
Copy !req
753. This changes nothing.
Copy !req
754. Take that, Mr. Harcourt!
Copy !req
755. Your Majesty?
Copy !req
756. On behalf of my crew,
Copy !req
757. may I say it is an honor
to be welcomed to your city.
Copy !req
758. Excuse me? Commander?
Copy !req
759. You presume much
to think you are welcome here.
Copy !req
760. Oh, sir, we have come
a long way looking for...
Copy !req
761. I know what you seek,
and you will not find it here.
Copy !req
762. Your journey has been in vain.
Copy !req
763. But we are peaceful explorers,
men of science.
Copy !req
764. And yet you bring weapons.
Copy !req
765. Our weapons allow us to remove
obstacles we may encounter.
Copy !req
766. Some obstacles cannot be
removed with a mere show of force.
Copy !req
767. Return to your people.
You must leave Atlantis at once.
Copy !req
768. Oh, Your Majesty, be reasonable.
Copy !req
769. - Sir...
- Not now, son.
Copy !req
770. Trust me on this.
We better do as he says.
Copy !req
771. May I respectfully request
that we stay one night, sir?
Copy !req
772. That would give us
time to rest, resupply,
Copy !req
773. and be ready to travel by morning.
Copy !req
774. Very well. One night.
Copy !req
775. That is all.
Copy !req
776. Well, thank you, Your Majesty.
Copy !req
777. Your heart has softened, Kida.
Copy !req
778. A thousand years ago,
you would have slain them on sight.
Copy !req
779. A thousand years ago,
the streets were lit,
Copy !req
780. and our people did not
have to scavenge for food
Copy !req
781. at the edge of a crumbling city!
Copy !req
782. The people are content.
Copy !req
783. They do not know any better!
Copy !req
784. We were once a great people.
Now we live in ruins.
Copy !req
785. The kings of our past would weep
Copy !req
786. if they could see how far we have fallen.
Copy !req
787. - Kida.
- If these outsiders
Copy !req
788. can unlock the secrets of our past,
Copy !req
789. perhaps we can save our future.
Copy !req
790. What they have to teach us
we have already learned.
Copy !req
791. Our way of life is dying.
Copy !req
792. Our way of life is preserved.
Copy !req
793. Kida, when you take the throne,
you will understand.
Copy !req
794. - So, how'd it go?
- Well,
Copy !req
795. the King and his daughter
don't exactly see eye to eye.
Copy !req
796. She seems to like us okay,
but the King...
Copy !req
797. I don't know. I think
he's hiding something.
Copy !req
798. Well, if he's hiding something,
I want to know what it is.
Copy !req
799. - Someone needs to talk to that girl.
- I will go!
Copy !req
800. - Someone with good people skills.
- I will do it!
Copy !req
801. - Someone who won't scare her away.
- I volunteer!
Copy !req
802. Someone who can speak the language.
Copy !req
803. For the good of the mission, I will go!
Copy !req
804. Good man, Thatch.
Thanks for volunteering.
Copy !req
805. Go get 'em, tiger.
Copy !req
806. Okay, Milo, don't take no for an answer.
Copy !req
807. "Look, I have some questions for you,
Copy !req
808. "and I'm not leaving this city
until they're answered!" Yeah, that's it.
Copy !req
809. That's good, that's good.
Copy !req
810. I have some questions for you,
Copy !req
811. and you are not leaving this city
until they are answered.
Copy !req
812. - Yeah, well, I... Okay.
- Come with me.
Copy !req
813. Oh, there is so much
to ask about your world.
Copy !req
814. You are a scholar, are you not?
Copy !req
815. Judging from your diminished
physique and large forehead,
Copy !req
816. you are suited for nothing else.
Copy !req
817. What is your country of origin?
Copy !req
818. When did the flood waters recede?
Copy !req
819. - How did you...
- Wait a minute.
Copy !req
820. I got a few questions for you, too.
Copy !req
821. So let's do this, okay?
You ask one, then I'll ask one,
Copy !req
822. then you, then me, then...
Well, you get it.
Copy !req
823. Very well. What is your first question?
Copy !req
824. Well, okay, how did you get here?
Copy !req
825. Well, I mean, not you, personally,
but your culture.
Copy !req
826. I mean, how did all of this
end up down here?
Copy !req
827. It is said that
the gods became jealous of Atlantis.
Copy !req
828. They sent a great cataclysm
and banished us here.
Copy !req
829. All I can remember is the sky going dark
Copy !req
830. and people shouting and running.
Copy !req
831. Then, a bright light, like a star
Copy !req
832. floating above the city.
Copy !req
833. My father said it called my mother to it.
Copy !req
834. I never saw her again.
Copy !req
835. I'm sorry. If it's any consolation,
Copy !req
836. I know how you feel, because I lost my...
Copy !req
837. Wait a minute. Wait a minute!
Whoa, back up!
Copy !req
838. What are you telling me?
Copy !req
839. That you remember
because you were there?
Copy !req
840. No, that's... That's impossible...
Copy !req
841. Because, I mean,
that would make you...
Copy !req
842. You know, 8,500-8,800 years old.
Copy !req
843. Yes.
Copy !req
844. Oh, well. Hey. Looking good.
Copy !req
845. Just...
Copy !req
846. - You got another question for me?
- Yes.
Copy !req
847. How is it you found
your way to this place?
Copy !req
848. Well, I'll tell you, it wasn't easy.
Copy !req
849. If it weren't for this book,
we never would have made it.
Copy !req
850. Okay, second question. Legend has it
that your people possessed
Copy !req
851. a power source of some kind
that enabled them...
Copy !req
852. - You mean you can understand this?
- Yes, I'm a linguist.
Copy !req
853. That's what I do, that's my job.
Copy !req
854. - Now, getting back to my question...
- This, right here,
Copy !req
855. you can read this?
Copy !req
856. Yes, yes.
I can read Atlantean, just like you.
Copy !req
857. You can't, can you?
Copy !req
858. No one can.
Copy !req
859. Such knowledge has been lost to us
Copy !req
860. since the time of the mehbehlmoak.
Copy !req
861. Oh, the Great Flood.
Copy !req
862. - Show me.
- Okay...
Copy !req
863. "Follow the narrow passage
for another league.
Copy !req
864. "There, you will find the fifth marker."
Copy !req
865. Yeah. Yeah, that's it.
How was my accent?
Copy !req
866. Boorish, provincial...
Copy !req
867. - And you speak it through your nose.
- Yeah, gotta work on that.
Copy !req
868. Here, let me show you something.
Copy !req
869. What? it looks like some sort of vehicle.
Copy !req
870. Yes. But no matter what I try,
it will not respond.
Copy !req
871. - Perhaps if...
- Way ahead of you.
Copy !req
872. Okay, let's see what we got here.
Copy !req
873. Okay. "Place crystal into slot."
Copy !req
874. Yes, yes, I have done that!
Copy !req
875. "Gently place your hand
on the inscription pad."
Copy !req
876. - Yes!
- Okay, did you turn the crystal
Copy !req
877. - one-quarter turn back?
- Yes. Yes!
Copy !req
878. While your hand was
on the inscription pad?
Copy !req
879. No.
Copy !req
880. Ah, well. See, there's
your problem right there.
Copy !req
881. That's an easy thing to miss.
You know, you deserve credit
Copy !req
882. for even getting this far.
Copy !req
883. Okay, give it a try.
Copy !req
884. Yeah, you got that right.
Copy !req
885. This is great! With this thing,
Copy !req
886. I could see the whole city
in no time at all.
Copy !req
887. Wonder how fast it goes.
Copy !req
888. So, who's hungry?
Copy !req
889. By the way, we were never
properly introduced.
Copy !req
890. My name's Milo.
Copy !req
891. My name is Kidagakash.
Copy !req
892. Kidamaschnaga.
Copy !req
893. Hey, you got a nickname?
Copy !req
894. Kida.
Copy !req
895. Okay, Kida. I can remember that.
Copy !req
896. Wow.
Copy !req
897. What is wrong?
Copy !req
898. Oh, it's nothing. I just...
Got something in my eye.
Copy !req
899. You know, my grandpa
used to tell me stories
Copy !req
900. about this place
as far back as I can remember.
Copy !req
901. I just wish he could be
standing here with me.
Copy !req
902. Tell me more about your companions.
Copy !req
903. Your physician, he is called Cookie?
Copy !req
904. - No, that's Sweet.
- What is?
Copy !req
905. The doctor. He's Sweet.
Copy !req
906. Oh, he is kindly.
Copy !req
907. No, no, no, that's... That's his name.
Copy !req
908. - His name is Kindly?
- No, Sweet.
Copy !req
909. Well, I mean, he's kindly, too.
Copy !req
910. So all of your doctors
are sweet and kindly?
Copy !req
911. No. Well, I'm sure some are.
Copy !req
912. Ours is, but that's not a requirement.
Copy !req
913. - You're missing the point.
- You are confusing me.
Copy !req
914. Wow. Look at all those tattoos.
Copy !req
915. Shoot. That ain't nothing.
Copy !req
916. Look here what I got.
Copy !req
917. All 38 United States.
Copy !req
918. Watch me make Rhode Island dance.
Copy !req
919. Go on, baby, dance. Dance.
Copy !req
920. There you go.
Copy !req
921. Cookies are sweet, but yours is not.
Copy !req
922. Sweet is kindly,
but that is not his name.
Copy !req
923. Audrey is sweet,
but she is not your doctor.
Copy !req
924. And the little digging animal
called Mole...
Copy !req
925. He is your pet?
Copy !req
926. Close enough.
Copy !req
927. Oh, don't forget to eat the head.
Copy !req
928. That's where all the nutrients are.
Copy !req
929. You know, Kida,
the most we ever hoped to find
Copy !req
930. was some crumbling buildings,
maybe some broken pottery.
Copy !req
931. Instead, we find a living,
thriving society.
Copy !req
932. These guys are kinda cute
Copy !req
933. when they're not, you know,
formed into a fiery column of death.
Copy !req
934. We are not thriving.
Copy !req
935. True, our people live,
but our culture is dying.
Copy !req
936. We are like a stone
the ocean beats against.
Copy !req
937. With each passing year,
a little more of us is worn away.
Copy !req
938. I wish there was something I could do.
Copy !req
939. I have brought you to this place
to ask you for your help.
Copy !req
940. There is a mural here
with writing all around the pictures.
Copy !req
941. Yeah, well, you came to the right guy.
Copy !req
942. Okay, let me see.
Let's start with this column right here.
Copy !req
943. Well, this... Kida?
Copy !req
944. - What are you doing?
- You do swim, do you not?
Copy !req
945. Oh, I swim, pretty girl.
Copy !req
946. Pretty good! Pretty good.
Copy !req
947. Good, swim good.
Pretty good. I swim pretty good.
Copy !req
948. Good. It is a fair distance
to where we are going.
Copy !req
949. Hey, you are talking
to the belly flop champ
Copy !req
950. at Camp Runamuck.
Copy !req
951. Come on, we're wasting time.
Copy !req
952. Why don't you lead the way, because
Copy !req
953. I have no idea where we're going.
Copy !req
954. - Are you all right?
- Well, I didn't drown, so...
Copy !req
955. Good. Follow me.
Copy !req
956. This is amazing!
Copy !req
957. A complete history of Atlantis!
Copy !req
958. It's just like Plato described it.
Copy !req
959. Well, he was off on a few details, but...
Copy !req
960. The light I saw.
Copy !req
961. The star in the middle of the city.
Copy !req
962. What does the writing say about that?
Copy !req
963. I don't know yet.
Copy !req
964. But we're gonna find out.
Copy !req
965. Come on.
Copy !req
966. - The heart of Atlantis!
- What?
Copy !req
967. It's the heart of Atlantis! That's
what the shepherd was talking about.
Copy !req
968. It wasn't a star, it was...
it was some kind of crystal.
Copy !req
969. Like these! Don't you get it?
Copy !req
970. The power source I've been looking for,
Copy !req
971. the bright light you remember.
Copy !req
972. - They're the same thing!
- That cannot be.
Copy !req
973. It's what's keeping all these things...
Copy !req
974. You, all of Atlantis alive.
Copy !req
975. Then where is it now?
Copy !req
976. I don't know, I don't know.
You'd think something
Copy !req
977. this important
would have been in the Journal, but...
Copy !req
978. Unless... The missing page.
Copy !req
979. You have a nice swim?
Copy !req
980. He)', guys, what's going on?
Copy !req
981. What's... What's with all the guns?
Copy !req
982. Guys?
Copy !req
983. I am such an idiot.
Copy !req
984. This is just another
treasure hunt for you.
Copy !req
985. - You're after the crystal.
- Oh, you mean this?
Copy !req
986. The heart of Atlantis.
Copy !req
987. Yeah. About that,
I would've told you sooner,
Copy !req
988. but it was strictly
on a need-to-know basis.
Copy !req
989. And, well, now you know.
Copy !req
990. I had to be sure you were one of us.
Copy !req
991. Welcome to the club, son.
Copy !req
992. I'm no mercenary.
Copy !req
993. Mercenary?
Copy !req
994. I prefer the term "adventure capitalist."
Copy !req
995. Besides, you're the one
who got us here.
Copy !req
996. You led us right to the treasure chest.
Copy !req
997. You don't know what
you're tampering with, Rourke.
Copy !req
998. What's to know? It's big. It's shiny.
Copy !req
999. It's going to make us all rich.
Copy !req
1000. You think it's some kind of a diamond,
Copy !req
1001. I thought it was some kind of a battery,
but we're both wrong.
Copy !req
1002. It's their life force.
Copy !req
1003. That crystal is the only thing
keeping these people alive.
Copy !req
1004. You take that away, and they'll die.
Copy !req
1005. Well, that changes things.
Copy !req
1006. - Helga, what do you think?
- Knowing that, I'd double the price.
Copy !req
1007. I was thinking triple.
Copy !req
1008. Rourke, don't do this.
Copy !req
1009. Academics. You never want
to get your hands dirty.
Copy !req
1010. Think about it.
Copy !req
1011. If you gave back
every stolen artifact from a museum,
Copy !req
1012. you'd be left with an empty building.
Copy !req
1013. We're just providing
a necessary service
Copy !req
1014. to the archeological community.
Copy !req
1015. Not interested.
Copy !req
1016. I got to admit, I'm disappointed.
Copy !req
1017. You're an idealist,
just like your grandfather.
Copy !req
1018. Do yourself a favor, Milo.
Don't be like him.
Copy !req
1019. For once, do the smart thing.
Copy !req
1020. I really hate it
when negotiations go sour.
Copy !req
1021. Let's try this again.
Copy !req
1022. - Knock, knock.
- Room service.
Copy !req
1023. Tell them to drop their weapons... Now!
Copy !req
1024. Spread out! Search everywhere!
Copy !req
1025. You're not applying yourself, son.
Copy !req
1026. There's got to be something else.
Copy !req
1027. Well, there isn't. It just says,
Copy !req
1028. "The heart of Atlantis lies
in the eyes of her king."
Copy !req
1029. Well, then maybe Old King Cole here
Copy !req
1030. can help us fill in the blanks.
Copy !req
1031. How about it, chief?
Where's the crystal chamber?
Copy !req
1032. You will destroy yourselves.
Copy !req
1033. Maybe I'm not being clear.
Copy !req
1034. Rourke, this was not a part of the plan.
Copy !req
1035. Plan's changed, doc.
Copy !req
1036. I'd suggest you put a bandage
on that bleeding heart of yours.
Copy !req
1037. It doesn't suit a mercenary.
Copy !req
1038. Well, as usual, diplomacy has failed us.
Copy !req
1039. Now, I'm going to count to 10.
Copy !req
1040. And you're going to tell me
where the crystal is.
Copy !req
1041. One...
Copy !req
1042. Two...
Copy !req
1043. Nine...
Copy !req
1044. T...
Copy !req
1045. The heart of Atlantis
lies in the eyes of her king.
Copy !req
1046. This is it. We're in.
Copy !req
1047. Rourke, for the last time,
you've got to listen to me.
Copy !req
1048. You don't have the slightest idea
what this power is capable of.
Copy !req
1049. True, but I can think of a few countries
Copy !req
1050. who'd pay anything to find out.
Copy !req
1051. Hurry. Get on.
Copy !req
1052. Jackpot
Copy !req
1053. The kings of our past.
Copy !req
1054. Thatch, tell her to wrap it up.
Copy !req
1055. We got a schedule to meet.
Copy !req
1056. Kida...
Copy !req
1057. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
1058. Come on, let's get this over with.
Copy !req
1059. I don't like this place.
Copy !req
1060. All right, Thatch, what's next?
Copy !req
1061. Okay, there's a giant crystal
Copy !req
1062. hovering 150 feet above our heads
Copy !req
1063. over a bottomless pit of water.
Copy !req
1064. Doesn't anything surprise you?
Copy !req
1065. The only thing that surprises me
is you're still
Copy !req
1066. talking and
that thing's not on the truck yet.
Copy !req
1067. - Now move it!
- I don't know how to move it.
Copy !req
1068. I don't even know
what's holding it up there.
Copy !req
1069. Talk to me, Thatch. What's happening?
Copy !req
1070. Look, all it says here
is that the crystal is alive, somehow.
Copy !req
1071. I don't know how to explain it.
Copy !req
1072. It's their deity. It's their power source.
Copy !req
1073. Speak English, professor.
Copy !req
1074. They're a part of it. It's a part of them.
Copy !req
1075. I'm doing the best I can here.
Copy !req
1076. - Well, do better.
- Oh, I know.
Copy !req
1077. Why don't you translate,
and I'll wave the gun around?
Copy !req
1078. What did she say?
Copy !req
1079. I don't know. I didn't catch it.
Copy !req
1080. Hold your horses, lover boy.
Copy !req
1081. Kida.
Copy !req
1082. Kida.
Copy !req
1083. No, don't. Don't touch her.
Copy !req
1084. All right, step back.
Copy !req
1085. Sergeant, keep those people back.
Copy !req
1086. You heard him. Step back.
Copy !req
1087. I'm warning you.
Copy !req
1088. So...
Copy !req
1089. I guess this is how it ends, huh?
Copy !req
1090. Fine. You win.
Copy !req
1091. You're wiping out an entire civilization,
Copy !req
1092. but hey... You'll be rich.
Copy !req
1093. Congratulations, Audrey.
Copy !req
1094. Guess you and your dad will be able
Copy !req
1095. to open up that second garage after all.
Copy !req
1096. And, Vinny, you can start
a whole chain of flower shops.
Copy !req
1097. I'm sure your family's
going to be very proud.
Copy !req
1098. But that's what it's all about, right?
Copy !req
1099. - Money.
- Get off your soapbox, Thatch.
Copy !req
1100. You've read Darwin.
It's called natural selection.
Copy !req
1101. We're just helping it along.
Copy !req
1102. - Commander, we're ready.
- Yeah, give me a minute.
Copy !req
1103. I know I'm forgetting something.
Copy !req
1104. I got the cargo, the crystal, the crew...
Copy !req
1105. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
1106. Look at it this way, son.
Copy !req
1107. You were the man
who discovered Atlantis,
Copy !req
1108. and now, you're part of the exhibit.
Copy !req
1109. Let's move, people.
Copy !req
1110. That was an order,
not a suggestion. Let's go!
Copy !req
1111. We're all going to die.
Copy !req
1112. Oh, you can't be serious.
Copy !req
1113. This is wrong, and you know it.
Copy !req
1114. We're this close
to our biggest payday ever,
Copy !req
1115. and you pick now of all times
to grow a conscience.
Copy !req
1116. We've done a lot of things
we're not proud of,
Copy !req
1117. robbing graves, plundering tombs,
Copy !req
1118. double parking, but nobody got hurt.
Copy !req
1119. Well, maybe somebody got hurt,
but nobody we knew.
Copy !req
1120. Well, if that's the way you want it, fine.
Copy !req
1121. More for me.
Copy !req
1122. P.T. Barnum was right.
Copy !req
1123. - We can't let him do this!
- Wait a second.
Copy !req
1124. Okay, now you can go.
Copy !req
1125. Milo, you better get up here.
Copy !req
1126. How's he doing?
Copy !req
1127. Not good, I'm afraid.
Copy !req
1128. Internal bleeding.
Copy !req
1129. There's nothing more I can do.
Copy !req
1130. What a nightmare.
Copy !req
1131. - And I brought it here.
- Don't go beating yourself up.
Copy !req
1132. He's been after that crystal
since Iceland.
Copy !req
1133. The crystal. Sweet, that's it.
Copy !req
1134. These... These crystals,
they have some sort of healing energy.
Copy !req
1135. I've seen it work.
Copy !req
1136. No.
Copy !req
1137. Where is my daughter?
Copy !req
1138. Well, she...
Copy !req
1139. She has been chosen,
like her mother before her.
Copy !req
1140. What?
Copy !req
1141. In times of danger,
Copy !req
1142. the crystal will choose a host,
Copy !req
1143. one of royal blood, to protect itself
Copy !req
1144. and its people.
Copy !req
1145. It will accept no other.
Copy !req
1146. Wait a minute. Choose?
Copy !req
1147. So this thing is alive?
Copy !req
1148. In a way.
Copy !req
1149. The crystal thrives
Copy !req
1150. on the collective emotions
of all who came before us.
Copy !req
1151. In return, it provides power,
Copy !req
1152. longevity, protection.
Copy !req
1153. As it grew,
Copy !req
1154. it developed
a consciousness of its own.
Copy !req
1155. In my arrogance,
Copy !req
1156. I sought to use it as a weapon of war,
Copy !req
1157. but it's power proved
too great to control.
Copy !req
1158. It overwhelmed us
and led to our destruction.
Copy !req
1159. That's why you hid it beneath the city.
Copy !req
1160. To keep history from repeating itself.
Copy !req
1161. And to prevent Kida from suffering
the same fate as my beloved wife.
Copy !req
1162. What do you mean?
What's going to happen to Kida?
Copy !req
1163. If she remains bonded to the crystal,
Copy !req
1164. she could be lost to it forever.
Copy !req
1165. The love of my daughter
is all I have left.
Copy !req
1166. My burden would have become hers
Copy !req
1167. when the time was right,
but now, it falls to you.
Copy !req
1168. Me?
Copy !req
1169. Return the crystal.
Copy !req
1170. Save Atlantis.
Copy !req
1171. Save my daughter.
Copy !req
1172. So, what's it going to be?
Copy !req
1173. - Excuse me?
- I followed you in, and I'll follow you out.
Copy !req
1174. - It's your decision.
- Oh, my decision?
Copy !req
1175. Well, I think we've seen
how effective my decisions have been.
Copy !req
1176. Let's recap.
Copy !req
1177. I lead a band of plundering vandals
Copy !req
1178. to the greatest archeological find
in recorded history,
Copy !req
1179. thus enabling the kidnap
and/or murder of the royal family.
Copy !req
1180. Not to mention personally delivering
Copy !req
1181. the most powerful force known to man
into the hands of a mercenary nutcase
Copy !req
1182. who's probably going
to sell it to the Kaiser!
Copy !req
1183. Have I left anything out?
Copy !req
1184. Well, you did set the camp on fire
Copy !req
1185. - and drop us down that big hole.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
1186. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
1187. Of course, it's been my experience
when you hit bottom,
Copy !req
1188. the only place left to go is up.
Copy !req
1189. Who told you that?
Copy !req
1190. A fella by the name
of Thaddeus Thatch.
Copy !req
1191. Where are you going?
Copy !req
1192. - I'm going after Rourke.
- Milo, that's crazy.
Copy !req
1193. I didn't say it was the smart thing.
But it is the right thing.
Copy !req
1194. Come on. We better make sure
he doesn't hurt himself.
Copy !req
1195. Milo, what do you think you are doing?
Copy !req
1196. Just follow my lead.
Copy !req
1197. Wow. I'm impressed.
Copy !req
1198. It's simple. All you got to do...
Copy !req
1199. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Shut up. We get it, okay?
Copy !req
1200. No, no, wait!
Copy !req
1201. Gently. Just gently.
Copy !req
1202. Hey, Milo, you got something sporty?
Copy !req
1203. You know, like a tuna?
Copy !req
1204. - How is this done?
- All you got to do is use the crystals.
Copy !req
1205. Kida showed me.
Copy !req
1206. Half-turn right, quarter-turn back.
Keep your hand on the pad.
Copy !req
1207. Saddle up, partners.
Bring jerky and ammo.
Copy !req
1208. I'm so excited.
Copy !req
1209. All right, this is it!
Copy !req
1210. We're going to rescue the princess.
Copy !req
1211. We're going to save Atlantis.
Copy !req
1212. Or we're going to die trying.
Now let's do it!
Copy !req
1213. I love it when I win.
Copy !req
1214. Okay, here's the plan.
Copy !req
1215. We're going to come in low and fast
and take them by surprise.
Copy !req
1216. Well, I've got news for you, Milo.
Copy !req
1217. Rourke is never surprised,
and he's got a lot of guns.
Copy !req
1218. Great. Well, do you have
any suggestions?
Copy !req
1219. Yeah. Don't get shot.
Copy !req
1220. There they are!
Copy !req
1221. We've got company!
Copy !req
1222. Take off!
Copy !req
1223. Take her up!
Copy !req
1224. Holy smokes!
Copy !req
1225. You told me he only had guns.
Copy !req
1226. What I said was, he's never surprised.
Copy !req
1227. Okay, now things are getting good.
Copy !req
1228. Vinny! Heads up!
Copy !req
1229. We can't let them reach
the top of that shaft!
Copy !req
1230. Vinny, new plan.
You and me, we're going to be decoys.
Copy !req
1231. Audrey, Sweet, fly up underneath
that thing and cut her loose.
Copy !req
1232. We're on it.
Copy !req
1233. Lieutenant!
Copy !req
1234. I thought you said this thing could
cut through a femur in 28 seconds!
Copy !req
1235. Less talk, more saw.
Copy !req
1236. Looks like somebody's
working overtime.
Copy !req
1237. Come on, girl. Time's up.
Copy !req
1238. All right, Milo, this is it. Any last words?
Copy !req
1239. Yeah. I really wish I had
a better idea than this!
Copy !req
1240. We're losing altitude.
Copy !req
1241. Lighten the load.
Copy !req
1242. That's it,
unless someone wants to jump.
Copy !req
1243. Ladies first.
Copy !req
1244. You said we were in this together!
Copy !req
1245. You promised me a percentage!
Copy !req
1246. Next time, get it in writing.
Copy !req
1247. Nothing personal.
Copy !req
1248. Well, I have to hand it to you.
You're a bigger pain in the neck
Copy !req
1249. than I would have
ever thought possible.
Copy !req
1250. I consider myself
an even-tempered man.
Copy !req
1251. It takes a lot to get under my skin.
Copy !req
1252. But congratulations,
you just won the solid-gold kewpie doll.
Copy !req
1253. Nothing personal.
Copy !req
1254. Tired, Mr. Thatch?
Copy !req
1255. That's a darn shame
Copy !req
1256. because I'm just getting warmed up.
Copy !req
1257. Thank heaven.
Copy !req
1258. Oh, great!
Copy !req
1259. The volcano... She awakes!
Copy !req
1260. Hey, I had nothing to do with it.
Copy !req
1261. This here would be
a good place not to be.
Copy !req
1262. No, wait. We got to get her back
or the whole city will die.
Copy !req
1263. And if we don't get out of here, we'll die.
Copy !req
1264. It's the only way to reverse this.
Copy !req
1265. Just do it!
Copy !req
1266. Milo, no!
Copy !req
1267. Go!
Copy !req
1268. The fissure,
it is about to eject its pyroclastic fury!
Copy !req
1269. Milo, Mole says the Wall's going to blow!
Copy !req
1270. Milo?
Copy !req
1271. Atlantis will honor your names forever.
Copy !req
1272. I only wish there was more
we could do for you.
Copy !req
1273. You know, thanks anyway,
but I think we're good.
Copy !req
1274. They'll take you as far as the surface.
Copy !req
1275. We are really going to miss you, Milo.
Copy !req
1276. You know, I'm going
to reopen the flower shop,
Copy !req
1277. and I'm going to think of
you guys every single day,
Copy !req
1278. Monday through Friday, 9:00 to 5:00,
Copy !req
1279. Saturday until 2:00.
Copy !req
1280. Sunday... I'm going to take Sunday off,
probably, and...
Copy !req
1281. Maybe I'll go in for
a couple of hours, you know.
Copy !req
1282. But August... I'm going to take August.
Copy !req
1283. I ain't so good at speechifying,
Copy !req
1284. but I wanted you to have this.
Copy !req
1285. It's the bacon grease
from the whole trip.
Copy !req
1286. Cookie, I...
Copy !req
1287. Two for flinching.
Copy !req
1288. See you, Milo.
Copy !req
1289. Hey, Milo!
Copy !req
1290. Mole.
Copy !req
1291. Mole. Wow. Hey, well...
Copy !req
1292. Good-bye, Mole.
Copy !req
1293. Now, you sure you want to stay?
Copy !req
1294. There's a hero's welcome waiting for
the man who discovered Atlantis.
Copy !req
1295. Ah, I don't think
the world needs another hero.
Copy !req
1296. Besides, I hear there's an opening
down here for an expert in gibberish.
Copy !req
1297. You take good care of
yourself, Milo Thatch.
Copy !req
1298. Yeah. You, too, Sweet.
Copy !req
1299. Come here.
Copy !req
1300. Sweet, before you go, could you...
Copy !req
1301. No problem.
Copy !req
1302. Thanks.
Copy !req
1303. Oh, you're getting a bill.
Copy !req
1304. Can we go home now?
Copy !req
1305. Come on, y'all. Let's get
one last shot in front of the fish.
Copy !req
1306. - Say gochk!
- Gochk!
Copy !req
1307. Now, let's go over it again,
just so we got it straight.
Copy !req
1308. - You didn't find anything?
- Nope. Just a lot of rocks...
Copy !req
1309. And fish, little fish.
Copy !req
1310. Sponges.
Copy !req
1311. What happened to Helga?
Copy !req
1312. Well, we lost her when
a flaming zeppelin come down on her.
Copy !req
1313. - Missing.
- That's right. And Rourke?
Copy !req
1314. Nervous breakdown.
You could say he went all to pieces.
Copy !req
1315. In fact, you could say
he was transamorgafied
Copy !req
1316. and then busted into a zillion...
Copy !req
1317. Ahem. He's missing, too.
Copy !req
1318. - What about Milo?
- Went down with the sub.
Copy !req
1319. Lord, give me strength.
Copy !req
1320. I'm going to miss that boy.
Copy !req
1321. At least he's in a better place now.
Copy !req
1322. Dear Mr. Whitmore,
Copy !req
1323. I hope this piece of proof
is enough for you.
Copy !req
1324. It sure convinced me.
Thanks from both of us.
Copy !req
1325. Milo Thatch
Copy !req
