- Stop it! All right, Mickey, much obliged.

- Now beat it, will you?

- All right. Such a fine customer.

Oh, Denham?

- Denham, I...

- What good is the grand jury?

What can they find out?

I brought Kong back here,

he got loose, did a lot of damage...

got killed, and that's that.

- What can I do about it?

- We can go to jail for 10 years.

- What do you mean, "we"?

- I'm in it, too, up to my neck.

Now, see here. This ship's still mine.

There are no attachments on her yet.

- They just haven't got around to you.

- That's a good reason for hurrying.

In three hours, I can get together

a skeleton crew, enough to handle her.

Yeah, and we'll go yachting.

We can make some sort

of a living carrying freight.

Take the East Indies.

There are hundreds of little ports

there that no sizable ship ever goes to.

- I know that part of the world.

- What'll we use for money?

Well, I... I've saved up a little.

Enough to get us started.

- Yes, but...

- Come on, Denham.

You know, Skipper...

you're pretty swell to be willing

to take me with you.

- Is it a go, then?

- What?

To be off on this old ship again,

out of all this?

Say, you bet it's a go.

Well, this looks

like a hustling community, Skipper.

Suppose we can get any business here?

Better get some soon, or we won't

be able to pay the crew.

Say, uh, how far is it to Kong's island?

1,753 miles.

Well, you're pretty glib with that.

You must have been checking up.

Huh? Oh.

I just happened to come across our

old chart last night...

and I was curious.

Yeah, sure.

- Bosun.

- Yes, sir.

Get that number two hatch off

and break out the cargo.

That won't take very long.

If we weren't so short-handed,

I'd get rid of that man.

He's a troublemaker.

Of course, Wong Ho would have to

ship his copra last week.

Well, let's see.

There's a couple of half-caste traders here.

We might see them tomorrow...

- ...and get a bit of a cargo.

- Look, Skipper. There's a show in town.

- I'll bet it's terrible.

- Don't be a crab, Skipper. It's a show.

We ought to see it.

- I want a drink and some dinner.

- There's plenty of time for that.

You don't mean to say you're going

to miss the sagacious seals?

Don't you want to laugh and thrill

with La Belle Helene?

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you.

Come, Bobby. Come, George.

Come, Fattima. In with you.

And now, La Belle Helene!

Sweet songstress who has appeared

before all the crowned heads of Europe...

will conclude the performance...

with one of her most popular songs.

La Belle Helene!

Oh, I've got the runaway blues

I want to wander away

Oh, I've got the runaway blues today

Don't want to stay
