I think we'll take it.
And what was I, Mike O'Hara,
doing on a luxury yacht...
...pleasure cruising
But it's clear now,
I was chasing a married woman.
But that's not the way
I wanted to look at it. No.
To be a real prize fathead
like Mike O'Hara...
...you've got to swallow whole all the lies
you can think up to tell yourself.
Our little expedition spent
some weeks in the West Indies...
...dawdling around,
seeing the sights, laying in supplies...
...and getting into more trouble.
Hi, on board the Cercie!
You there...
...why don't you go swimming?
I beg your pardon?
I said, why don't you go swimming?
I didn't bring a swimming suit
along on the job, sir.
You ought to the next time.
There won't be a next time, sir.
I'm quitting.
My trunks will fit you.
You'll find them in the locker in the cabin.
I suppose you're wondering who I am, fella.
- I think I saw you in New York.
- I flew in this morning, by way of Havana.
I'm George Grisby, you know.
Grisby and Bannister.
- Where is everybody? Gone ashore?
- Almost everybody.
- My partner, too, Mr. Bannister?
- That's right.
And the lady?
you once killed a man.
- You are Michael, aren't you?
- That's right.
I'm very interested in murders.
Forgive me if I seem inquisitive,
but where'd it happen?
- At Murcia.
- How'd you do it?
Now, let me guess.
You did it with your hands, didn't you?
Does it ever bother you
What'd he do to you?
Nothing.
You just killed him for the fun of it?
He was a Franco spy.
There was a war on at the time.
Then it wasn't murder, I suppose?
Tell me, would you do it again?
Would you mind killing another man?
I was on a pro-Franco committee, fella...
...during the Spanish War.
Would you kill me if I gave you the chance?
I may give you the chance.
Michael!
Before Li went ashore
did he make up some lunch for me?
- Yes, ma'am.
I'm sure I don't know. Ask Mrs. Bannister.
You ask her.
Would you like a good paste
in the eye, sir?
I wish she'd ask me to go swimming.
She'll ask you.
You wait and see.
Will you help me?
Give me a cigarette.
Ever since that night in the park...
...I've been getting the habit.
Do all rich women play games like this?
Call me Rosalie.
- I didn't think you would do that.
- I didn't either.
You're scared, aren't you?
You're scared.
I'm scared, too.
You think you needed me to help you?
You're not that kind.
If you need anything, you help yourself.
I'm not what you think I am.
I just try to be like that.
Keep on trying. You might make it.
