"Actually, well it seems on your last business operations... you captured a German naval officer?" " He was shot." " Had to be shot, he was trying to escape." "Now, on the basis of your report, naval intelligence believes the Blücher may not be sunk after all." "They're hiding it." " Not sunk?" " Mm...hmm." "And if we can trace where those wheels went, we might find them." "Wheels, huh?" "Well, it could be anywhere out there." "Exactly." "So, we'll do it by aerial reconnaiscance." "By what?" "From the air." "Portugese was very kind to lend us an airplane and a pilot." "Oh, that's a grand idea.. uh..." " You mind if I help myself?" " No, go ahead." "When will you be ready to leave?"

"If we are to be ready to sail in five days, sir," "I can't spare a single hand on the repair work." "There's no question of not sailing in five days." "Early intelligence reports, the British troops are... heading through Swisswood Pass again." "We must be ready to intercept and destroy." "Enter!" "Captain, the flying machine got away." "Your guys could have spit on it." "It was so close." "Commissioner... you led that airplane straight to us." "In sailing your rafts down river in daylight, you defied my orders."

"Immediately." "Are you mad?" " I cannot..." " Are you disobeying my orders again?" "I shall protest to Berlin." "Not before I court martial you for insubordination."

"It's a race against time." "Well, you've got war ships don't you?" "There's not one that can attack the Blücher within a week from here." "Alright, then send one of your men." "It has to be someone the natives trust." "Look, because of your excellent Intelligence service... we know all about the Britain." "Well, I must admit I do have my fingers on the toaster a bit." "Right, and surely you can provide us with one reliable man." "Well, I'm not so sure about that." "He'd have to be dependable and willing to risk his life." "Well, that cuts out, half of my crew." "He'd also have to operate a simple mechanical device." "That cuts out the other half." "There will of course... be a reward." "A reward, you say." "How much?" "A thousand pounds." "Green backs?"
