The Poseidon Adventure Page #3
kiss the captain?
Don't knock it.
Why don't you admit the real reason?
will recognize you.
That's pretty stupid!
You're out of that business now.
You're my wife.
You can't go around afraid
all the time. . .
. . .that every guy you bump into
is a former customer!
Linda, you hear me?
Will you shut up? l'm busy in here!
You weren't on the streets that long!
How many guys did you know?
You realize how slim
the chances are. . .
. . .that even one of these characters
is on this boat?
You don't have to shout.
l said--
l said, do you realize how slim--
l heard what you said!
Mike.
the other day.
And he looked pretty damn familiar.
Even with his clothes on.
So he recognized you.
So?
Doesn't that bother you?
lf it bothered me, l wouldn't
have married you.
Well, first you arrested me six times!
l had to keep you off the streets
until you'd marry me!
Come here, you lousy cop.
Belle.
Mr. Martin, what is the
little green one for?
That's alfalfa, Mrs. Rosen.
lt's essential to blood formation,
neural function and growth.
The growth part doesn't work.
At least not with me anyway.
And the yellow one?
That's very attractive.
A tocopherol, derived
from seed germ oil.
-lt looks like vitamin E to me.
-lt is, Mr. Rosen.
Doesn't that increase virility?
That's the rumor.
All you need is a pretty wife.
l think l've been a bachelor too long.
Sure, you're too busy
taking all those pills.
There she goes.
My wife can't stand seeing
anyone who's not married.
No.
-lt comes from caring.
-l'd like to be married, Mrs. Rosen.
l just can't seem to find the time.
l mean, l get down to the shop
at 8, l open at 9.
l close at 7 and go home at 8.
Except on Wednesdays and Fridays,
l go home at 1 0.
Mrs. Rosen, when you
see your grandson. . .
. . .tell him not to become
a haberdasher.
l know what you mean.
We never went to Coney lsland until
we sold our business last year.
You see?
Mr. Tinkham, are you married?
No marriage for me, Mrs. Rosen.
l've got a mistress.
-What?
-The sea.
Hey, that's good!
From the seismographic station
in Athens, sir.
''Sub-sea earthquake,
7.8 on the Richter scale.
Epicenter 1 30 miles
northwest of Crete. ''
That's the cat this ship
is named after?
That's right, the great god, Poseidon.
ln Greek mythology, the god
of the seas, storms, tempests. . .
. . .earthquakes and other
miscellaneous natural disasters.
Quite an ill-tempered fellow.
-Yes?
-Sorry to disturb you, captain.
-Please come to the bridge.
-Right.
Would you all excuse me, please?
Duty calls.
Reverend, do you mind
taking over as host?
