"Captain surely you value your life, more than a chest of gold." "Tell us where it is." "We might share it with you." "I'll die happy knowing" "You curs will never find the treasure." "No one will." "Then die you shall." "Soon as the tide comes in." "[laughing]" "I'll see you're both in hell, boys." "CAPTAIN:" "Keel-hauled and kissing the lady afor'e me." "You haven't seen the last of flint," "You filthy wretches." "15 men on a dead man's chest, yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum." "Dead and be damned and the rest gone whist." "Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum." "Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum." "SIDNEY:" "Morning Karen." "Sydney, where does this one go?" "Durga, goddess of revenge, 12th century India." "Top shelf." "Dirga, huh?" "You don't look so tough." "Well, in the mythological battle between heaven and earth, she is known as the terrible destroyer." "Sounds like my aunt Ruth." "Excuse me." "I'd like to see Sydney Fox please." "Sydney, there's a Mrs. Palmerston here to see you." "Mrs. Dash Palmerston?" "Jamie, I..." "I'm sorry to just drop by." "I was going to call," "But thought it better to come by." "Dash is dead." "He died two weeks ago" "In a plane crash over Guatemala." "I'm sorry." "Yes, I'm sorry." "Dash is a..." "Was a rather colourful relic hunter." "He was a crook." "Well, I..." "I had no idea until I went through his papers." "He always told me he donated all the relics he found to museums." "While conducting a brisk trade on the black market." "I'm sorry." "Is there something I can do for you?" "These are what Dash was working on before he died." "You know Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson?" "Sure." "Long John Silver, treasure." "What if I told you it wasn't fiction?" "That in the novel," "Stevenson switched the location of the story from the Caribbean to the South Seas?" "Why would he do that?" "Because part of the treasure is still there, waiting to be found." "I'd like to donate the treasure to a museum, try to make up for some of Dash's dishonesty by giving something back." "He'd have hated that." "Karen, call Nigel, have him cancel his flight back from the conference." "Tell him he has to meet us tomorrow instead." "Where should I tell him he's going?" "Treasure island." "Kind of reminds me of Club Med." "I love this music, though." "Keep your eyes open." "Stay close and hold onto your bags." "Do you see a treasure resort van?" "Where to, miss ting?" "Excuse me." "Name's Peter." "At your service." "Whatever you need, you must come and ask Peter." "Come, I give you a ride, show you the sights." "We'll take the tour later." "Is there a problem, ladies?" "Let go of the bag." "Someone from the resort's picking us up." "Not safe at all going around with no "someone"." "Come on." "I said find another fare, Pierre." "Pretty ladies too nice." "You never know what can happen in a dumpy place like this." "Give me a reason." "Come on." "You all right?" "Fine." "I think my life just flashed before my eyes," "But..." "I think we better walk." "SAMANTHA: that's an amazing story, Nigel." "And you weren't afraid of all the snakes?" "No, no, no." "I laugh at danger." "Have you ever thought, like, "this is it." "I'm going to die"?" "Well, I do remember this one time when I..." "When I snuck into this temple of Kali in the company of a murderous cult." "Anyway, the leader pointed to me..." "I was disguised as one of them at the time..." "And wanted me to make a human sacrifice as the others looked on." "That's disgusting." "Did you?" "No, that's frowned upon in academic circles." "Anyway, thinking..." "SYDNEY:" "Nigel." "Hello." "Nigel, Jamie Palmerston." "Pleased to meet you." "This is Samantha." "Her father owns this place." "Samantha, Sydney Fox." "I've been hearing all about you." "Really?" "Yeah." "It must be a serious blast following Nigel all around the world." "Yes, it is." "Like, all the times he saved you from, like, death." "I count my blessings daily." "It's been so much fun chatting with you," "Samantha, but, you know, we've got to talk business now, so..." "I know a "get lost"" "when I hear one." "Nice meeting you." "We'll be seeing each other, killer." "Looks like you've got yourself a fan." "A young fan." "No, no." "No, no, no." "Just..." "Well, you know, shooting the breeze, passing the time." "Fan?" "No." "No." "Waiting for you, in fact." "Now you're here." "Let's go." "Remember the character Jim Hawkins in Treasure Island?" "Sure, the young boy who narrated." "What if I told you he was real?" "Are you?" "As a boy, the real Hawkins saw pirates burying treasure on this island and then later told Stevenson his story." "You can prove this?" "Oh, yeah, a copy of a letter and a pirate map Hawkins showed him." "NIGEL:" "Impressive." "Well, this treasure map has a few special features." "It's not quite as simple as X marks the spot." "What do you make of the song?" "In particular, the he word" ""men" is missing." ""fifteen men on a dead man's chest." "Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum."" "Intentionally missing?" "Hidden writing." "Lemon juice?" "It's an old pirate trick." "Tools of the trade." "Okay." "Angle the sun to heat it up..." "In the space and we get..." "Here it comes..." ""Miles."" "Fifteen miles." "But from where and in what direction?" "Well, he marked a special ordinal point on the compass here, facing due south." "Okay." "That's a scale of ten miles." "Due south fifteen miles and you..." "There, not that far off shore." "10 fathoms deep." "Okay, so one boat and how many sets of scuba gear?" "Just one." "MAN:" "Okay." "You don't dive?" "No." "Middle ear syndrome." "Oh, you an experienced diver, Miss Fox?" "Yes, I am." "And how will you be paying for that?" "Oh, oh, please." "Credit card." "Anything wrong?" "No, no, no, this is perfect." "At least Dash didn't leave me broke." "Thank you, Ms. Palmerston." "There's actually some places out there with some rough current you should watch out for." "Which part of the reef you planning to dive in?" "SYDNEY:" "Any suggestions?" "West side of the island, off of Doubloon Point." "But we're going to the..." "West side of the island as well." "All right." "I'll meet you over there by the boat dock." "NIGEL:" "According to the map, this is where it says to dive." "Do you think the treasure itself is down there?" "We'll soon find out." "Good luck." "I can't believe I'm doing this." "What a life." "She's amazing." "Yeah, she is." "Sounds corny," "But I guess in a weird way, my life is starting over and I..." "I'm sorry, I shouldn't be bending your ear about this." "You're a beautiful young woman." "You can do anything you set your heart on." "I'd like to see the world." "NIGEL:" "Sydney's tank." "What's happening?" "I don't know." "Sydney's in trouble." "Nigel!" "SYDNEY:" "Well, hello." "JAMIE:" "Nigel, are you sure?" "I've got to go down." "I can't just leave her down there." "You see the shark?" "No, but it could come back." "Sydney!" "Thanks for bringing my tank back in." "That's all you can say at a time like this?" "We were so worried." "NIGEL:" "You see the shark?" "Yeah." "Unfortunately, it also saw me." "We thought you were dinner." "Listen, I found an underwater cave." "Was there anything interesting in it other than jaws?" "SYDNEY:" "Someone has searched our rooms." "JAMIE:" "Are you sure?" "Maybe it was a chambermaid." "Maybe we have competition." "NIGEL:" "Fortunately, we now have this coin" "Which is definitely pirate vintage." "It's marked with the castillian cross," "Very common for those days." "But someone's added the date, 1750, after the coin was minted." "Aren't all coins dated?" "Not Spanish Doubloons." "1750." "Why 1750?" "Listen to what Stevenson wrote his wife in this letter:" ""My beloved, I pray that once you will discover the value of religion," "You will let it lead you to the promised land."" "Religion." "The cross on the coin." "Value could be a measurement." "Height or weight." "Distance." "NIGEL:" "Distance." "Distance to the promised land, which we should probably find out what distance that is, because otherwise we won't know how far it is and then," "Well, we'll probably not go far enough, will we?" "Hello." "Sam, are you eavesdropping?" "Oh, no, not exactly." "I wanted to see you, Nigel but I didn't want to interrupt so I listened for a little." "How much did you hear?" "Nothing really." "Right, then, well..." "I know, beat it." "You know, pirate captains usually gave each of their men part of a clue to the treasure so that when they got back together, they'd have to co-operate to find it." "That's probably how the coin ties in." "I know, so I did hear more than a little." "You know a great deal about pirates." "Well, this place is pirate central, plus I read a lot." "Brains and beauty, deadly combo." "I think you should go for a walk outside with Sam." "Huh?" "Oh, excellent." "We may be a while." "I'll be right back." "Was it right what she said about the coin only being part of a clue?" "SAM:" "I hope you don't mind, but I told my best friend Becky about us." ""Us"?" "Sam, I think you may have got the wrong idea about," "Well, you know, you and me." "I'll tell ya, I'm a lot older than you and I think you're a very special young lady, but..." "You think I'm special?" "Yes, but that's not the point." "The point is there can never be anything between you and me." "I never want anything to come between us either." "You're not listening." "That girl reminds me of how puppy dog" "I used to be with Dash." "He was so sweet." "SYDNEY:" "You were in love." "I still am." "It's funny how the mind works, isn't it?" "I mean, all you remember is romance, not bullying or loneliness of being left behind." "You know, and then I look at someone like you." "The grass is always greener." "No, but look at you." "You've made your own life, no man owns you, and it with action, adventure..." "Sharks." "Okay, there are some drawbacks." "Everything comes at a cost." "It's just a matter of whether you can live with it or not." "Yeah, well, living with Dash nearly killed me so," "You know..." "Well, I love my life, but it's not without its regrets." "Really?" "No." "Just wanted to make you feel better." "Thanks." "[screaming]" "Jamie." "Jamie?" "Wakey-wakey, eggs and bakey." "I'm coming in." "I'm not looking." "Sydney," "Jamie's missing." "She's not in her room." "What?" "In the novel treasure island," "When the pirates intended to kill someone," "They sent a black spot." "It's a sure sign of death." "That's where I found it." "It was on the pillow." "[phone ringing]" "Yes?" "Sydney." "Are you all right?" "Sydney, in 20 minutes," "You need to meet me at the beach" "Below Spyglass Hill." "MAN:" "Alone." "Alone." "If you bring the police, I'm dead." "I'll be there." "JAMIE:" "Sydney, I'm scared." "Hey." "I'm supposed to tell you to bring the map and the coin." "I will." "Trust me, it'll be fine." "If the kidnapper's listening," "If you harm one hair on her head," "I will find you no matter how far you run." "Come on." "This is crazy." "Just please let me go." "Move." "Your liar of a husband used my boats, my equipment." "I told you he's dead." "Then he won't mind me finding the treasure." "NIGEL:" "You're going out there alone?" "Those are his terms." "No police, fine." "But you've got to let me come." "No." "If he sees you, he might panic." "Just stay here and be my backup." "MAN:" "That's far enough." "Turn around." "I came alone." "I brought what you wanted." "Donovan." "Diving business not doing very well?" "You know how it is with money." "A lot is good, but more is better." "If you don't mind the odd murder." "Go to hell." "You first." "Look, the map and the coin." "After you let her go." "Look, you are not calling the shots." "Now hand it over or I'll shoot this pretty young lady." "And you can be victim number two." "You all right?" "I'm fine." "Stay here." "[gunshot]" "Move over." "[gunshot]" "SYDNEY:" "Police confirm that Donovan was actively involved in smuggling." "He and the taxi driver were part of a shakedown crew that worked the docks." "So it was a dispute between thieves?" "You two aren't planning on giving up?" "I mean, we are so close." "That would be handing the relic over to the competition." "Something about this letter's been bothering me." "He's a renowned novelist, but listen to what he writes to his wife:" ""I've loved you more than life itself, from the day of our first meeting, and when eye meets eye is a moment to be treasured."" "Sounds clunky to me." "Eye meets eye?" "It sounds like two one-eyed people meeting." "Nigel, you're all right." "I heard there was a shooting and then I thought," "Oh, God, what is it?" "Sam, I'm fine" "But we're a little busy so why don't you wait out in the hall?" "Let's..." "Let's go." "Oh, you're just so wonderful and perfect and great." "I just couldn't bear..." "What am I going to do?" "She's a romantic kid in love." "Logic won't work." "SYDNEY:" "I think you should take her out for a walk and tell her your love is doomed." "I know exactly what to say." "There was an old movie" "On the other night with" "The exact dialogue that I need." "Love denied." "It's very good." "You should rent it." "Yes, why wouldn't he say," ""When our eyes meet"?" "Unless those weren't the kind of eyes that he meant." "There's the eye of a needle." ""Aye" a aye, sir."" "I as in "me, myself and I." "" the letter 'I'." "There's one in Robert Louis Stevenson," "One in Treasure Island." "When two eyes meet..." "Cutlass cove." "SAM:" "I knew you felt the same way the moment we met." "Absolutely." "Look, there's something" "I haven't told you." "You're dying?" "I'm engaged." "What?" "To..." "To someone who doesn't match your..." "Your beauty, your brains, your..." "Your sense of love and life, but someone who needs me and would go mad if I abandoned her." "You mean she'd, like, go nuts?" "Would you have me purchase our love for the price of her life?" "Oh, well, I..." "No, I mean, I guess..." "She'd kill herself?" "She's not strong like you." "That's so not fair." "I know, I know, I know." "Well, I guess by sacrificing our relationship, we save somebody else's life." "I knew you'd understand and one day when you're married and have children of your own..." "Come on, Nigel, jump in." "Well, have a good life." "Wait, he was saying where are we going?" "Cutlass cove." "SAM:" "Nigel, wait!" "Nigel!" "NIGEL:" "I think that went rather well." "Okay, so what are we looking for?" "I'm not sure." "Could be anything." "Syd?" "NIGEL:" "Sydney?" "This rock, it's a kind of limestone that you only find in England, from the quarries near Plymouth harbour." "The shipyards." "NIGEL:" "Uh huh." "JAMIE:" "Okay, I don't follow." "Wooden sailing ships were inherently buoyant and their tall masts made them extremely top-heavy." "Tons of ballast stones were placed on board to balance them out." "So the pirates used a stone from the ballast to mark the treasure site?" "Nigel, you're amazing." "Here, help me lift this." "NIGEL:" "It's the same cross that's on the Doubloon." "1750, 1750..." "Maybe miles like before." "No, that would take us too far from shore." "You know, when I was back at boarding school," "I spent a lot of time in study hall for poor handwriting." "That's a fascinating tidbit, but I'm not sure how it relates." "They would mistake my s's for 5's and vice-versa." "It's not 1750," "It's 17 and the letter S and O." "S-o." "Short for south?" "17 south." "17 miles?" "No, it would be paces." "In Treasure Island, they always measured in paces." "17 paces south." "You pace." "We'll get the shovels." "Okay." "One, two, three..." "JAMIE:" "Is that what I think it is?" "Bouillon." "We found the treasure of Treasure Island." "[clapping]" "Just like I knew you would." "You look pretty good for a dead husband." "Dash." "Sweetheart, you have done rather well on your first outing." "Sorry." "Yeah." "You hit a dead end, didn't you Dash?" "What, you couldn't follow the clues?" "Something like that." "But as you can see, the story has a happy ending." "Not for Donovan." "You should thank me for killing that guy." "That bastard wanted to hurt my little baby and we couldn't stand for that, now could we, darling?" "So you knew all along that he was selling the relics he found." "I saw no point in troubling her pretty little head with all that stuff..." "Until this situation, of course." "Jamie, you don't have to go along with this." "Oh, no." "You don't have to, hun." "You could betray me," "Send me to jail," "Donate the treasure to a museum." "But then who would take care of you?" "She can take care of herself." "What's she going to do for money, huh, syd?" "Go to work?" "She's never had to work a day in her life," "Thanks to me." "No offence, peanut," "But I can't see you spending your days with a little paper hat on your head asking," ""Would you like fries with that?"" "So was it all lies, Jamie?" "Everything you told me about your relationship?" "We can talk all about it, after we get out of here with the treasure." "You're going to jail with him." "Zip it, Sydney." "Besides, Jamie loves me." "Don't you, little bear?" "I can't believe I got taken by her, that cheap black dress." ""I want to give something back."" "Don't blame yourself." "I was, too." "So what's the plan?" "I'm trying to reach the trigger of my crossbow." "And if you do?" "I was hoping to shoot a bolt up through the sand, hit that palm tree there, maybe pull myself out." "Excellent idea." "It might be, except that" "I can't reach the trigger of my crossbow." "This sand is like cement." "Okay, what's plan B?" "There is no plan B." "You always have a plan B." "So I take it I would be justified in panicking?" "Well, in that case," "I think there are a few things I..." "I should say under the circumstances." "Like?" "I want to thank you for all the opportunities you've shown me." "It's been an incredible life." "Looks like it's going to be a little short, but incredible." "I'm just glad to have you here with me, Nig." "And also, I want to thank you for your friendship and your trust." "They..." "They..." "They mean the world to me." "Not that I want to get sentimental at a time like this when we're buried up to our necks in sand but..." "I feel the same way, Nigel." "NIGEL:" "I never even got to know Karen." "She seems like such a friendly girl and I don't want to die." "I guess what I'm trying to say is, considering it doesn't look like we're going to get out of this particular situation..." "I love you, Syd." "I don't mean in a dirty," "Lustful, salacious way." "I mean..." "Well, not that you're not an attractive woman, but..." "Okay, Nigel." "I love you too." "Shall we spend our last few moments on earth screaming for help?" "Sure." "[together] Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Well, that was a better result than I expected." "So I was talking to becky, my best friend, and I told her what you said." "Could you dig us out?" "We can chat about your friend later." "She said that sounds familiar" "About us purchasing our happiness at the cost of your fiancee's life." "And I said, "Becks, what do you mean familiar?"" "And she said..." "We could be inhaling water soon." "And she said she heard that exact same dialogue in some cornball movie her mother was watching on the late show a month ago." "And I said," ""It couldn't be."" "But then she told me some more and it was almost exactly the same as what you said." "All right, all right, all right." "You've got me fair and square." "I apologize unreservedly." "Now could you please start digging us out?" "You said you were speaking to me from your heart." "I'm speaking to you from my heart now when I say, "help""" "Sam, I know you must be terribly hurt and Nigel deserves to be punished." "I do?" "I do, I do," "I do, yes." "But he doesn't deserve to drown and I'd rather not." "I suppose you're right." "I'll dig you out first." "Cut loose the anchor, doll face." "I'll start the engine." "Thank you for doing the heavy lifting, darling." "Come on now, sugar-cube." "Now don't be an idiot." "Put that thing away." "No." "You've done such a good job at faking your death already." "No one will be the wiser." "What are you saying?" "Your body will wash out to sea, be ripped to pieces by sharks." "Doubt anyone'll ever find it." "Come on now, baby." "What's this all about, huh?" "You know it's always been you and me." "No." "It's always been mostly you." "I've learned a lot from Sydney." "I've discovered I'm a lot like her." "Well, now, Sydney," "Would never shoot a man in cold blood." "[gunshot]" "I didn't say I was exactly like her." "Going somewhere?" "I was thinking..." "Yeah." "You know, I want to see the world." "Think again." "No!" "Okay!" "I don't suppose you'd consider letting me go if I cut you in for half?" "You give gold-diggers a bad name." "I wanted out." "It was the only way." "No, it wasn't." "Enjoy the prison makeover." "Hope it's a long one." "Sydney, I heard what happened." "Are you all right?" "I want to hear every detail from the very beginning." "Well, I..." "Like how you got into archaeology, where you teach ancient studies." "Oh, and I want to travel and see the world just like you." "And tell me how, or are there courses I can take." "When did you start?" "Young, I bet." "Have you seen the pyramids in Egypt?" "Oh, and you know the Sphinx?" "Is it really an alien artifact?" "That's what they say." "I mean, well, I could learn a lot..." "KAREN:" "Hey, look at this." "We just got a really nice fax from the royal museum." "Oh, let's hear it." ""It is with deeply profound gratitude"..." "I love the way you brits talk..." ""that we acknowledge your extraordinary donation to the royal museum." "The treasure will be the centre-piece of our new Robert Louis Stevenson room to be marveled at by millions of visitors we are privileged to entertain each year."" "Cool." "If Stevenson were alive today, he could write a novel about this treasure." "Here's a coincidence." "The..." "The student film society's showing a restored print of Treasure Island." "Oh, it's the..." "The classic 1934 version starring Wallace Beery," "Jackie Cooper and Lionel Barrymore." "You wouldn't care to join me, would you?" "Don't you think you'd rather ask Karen instead?" "Why?" "Just something Nigel said." "When was this?" "When we were in the sand buried up to our necks." "What did he say?" "Oh, something really nice." "That is so sweet." "Whatever I said, I said under duress." "What did I say?" "Oh, Nigel." "KAREN:" "Tell me." "I don't know." "Maybe I shouldn't." "Well, if you think you shouldn't," "Then you shouldn't." "Come on." "Maybe I should." "Should you?" "Subtitle by:" "Kiasuseven"
