Come here. I'll get your clothes.

Yeah. Here you are, Geor...

George?

Now, where did he... George!

Will you get up outta there?

George, come on.

Come on. Pull yourself

together. Shh. Don't wake upJoe.

Huh? Don't wake upJoe.

Put that pillow down.

Put it down! Put it down.

Come on.

Shh. Don't make any noise.

Come on. Come on, George!

Don't make any noise.

You'll wake upJoe.

Go ahead, get out.

Get out. Get out.

Put your clothes on out there

and come right back.

What's the matter? Uh, nothing

at all, pal. Go back to sleep.

Go back to sleep, pal.

I'll take care of everything.

He says he belongs here. I found him

sleeping on Joe McDermott's doorstep.

Oh, good morning,

Captain Chisholm.

NuggetJoe. I've been looking

for you ever since I docked.

I got a note for you from up north.

It's... Oh, here. It's from Rosette.

Yeah. I don't care who it...

From Rosette!

Hey! She wants me back!

Rosette wants me back!

I'm sailing with the tide.

I gather I've got another passenger.

Yeah, you sure have.

Um, boy. I wouldn't be alive now

if it weren't for you boys.

I don't know how I can repay you. Ohhh.

Oh, the gold? Of course,

take it. It's all yours.

I got a mountain of it

in the Yukon.

Oh, Joe, you shouldn't have.

I shouldn't have a mountain of it

in the Yukon?

Oh, no. No, no, no, Joe.

George. George, wake up.

Huh? Wake up, George. We're rich.

We're rich! We've gotta

get right down to the bank...

and change some of these rocks

into that green stuff.

The bank don't open till 10:00.

It's only 7:
00 now.

There's nothing

like being first in line.

Wait a minute. Only 7:00?

Two hours ago it was 9:00.

Well, what's, uh, two from nine?

Seven.

That's what time it is.

Come on. Come on.

Let me outta here!

I'm going to see my Rosette.

She's wonderful!

She's a girl?

Certainly she's a girl!

Well, gold is selling

at $20 and 67 cents an ounce.

Twelve ounces to the pound

is $330 and 72 cents a pound.

There must be

at least 45 pounds there.

Come on. Get up on your feet. The

bank will be opening up any minute now.

Come on. I wanna see

how much gold we got.

You wanted to get here

to beat everybody to the bank.

I've been standing here for three hours. I could've

went home, had some sleep. I wanted to beat the crowd.

You wanted to beat the crowd. Two guys

here. This must be their off season.

I wouldn't flash that stuff around

if I were you, mister.

Why not? A prospector was robbed last

night and his body thrown into the bay.

Did they catch the killer? No,

but the police know who did it.

They do, huh? Yeah. It was a

couple of volunteer firemen.

Anybody we know?

Uh, who did they kill?
