That is not true.
They've done no harm.
Don't blame us because
- I demand a fair trial.
- You've had your trial.
The sea brought you.
The sea shall have you back.
Mind your shovin'! Easy, mate!
But you cannot do this.
This is not civilised.
I'm not what is called
a civilised man, Professor.
I have done with society
for reasons that seem good to me.
Therefore, I do not obey its laws.
But I am as guilty as they are.
I will grant you
that both of them and me, too,
enlisted to track down
what we thought to be a monster.
But we are no more guilty
than the rest of the world.
I would consider that guilty enough.
You have a great deal
to learn, Professor.
Your book is brilliant,
but it lacks scope.
You've carried your work as far
as terrestrial science permits.
The real story of the ocean depths
begins where you left off,
wonders that defy
my powers of description.
The secrets that are mine alone,
willing to share with you.
At the expense of my companions' lives?
I'm sorry. You'd have
to choose between them and me.
Then I cannot accept.
Professor, I regret your choice.
Take him up!
- And secure for sea.
- Aye, sir.
- All stations ready! Prepare for diving.
- Yes, sir.
All stations ready. Prepare for diving.
Ahead slow.
- What's he up to, Professor?
- I don't know.
Trim your forward ballast.
Three degrees down.
Three degrees down.
All engines stop! Surface and stand by.
- Pick up those two men in the water.
Take them all below
and confine them to quarters.
I found out what I wanted to know.
Esmie. There. There.
There. Now, kiss.
Now, off you go, Esmie.
Come in, gentlemen.
Be seated, please.
Thank you.
Professor.
You may serve them.
and will be returned to you shortly.
In the meantime, avail yourselves
of my humble hospitality.
Humble, he calls it.
- You do right well for yourself, mate.
- You may call me Captain Nemo.
I'd like to express our gratitude, Captain.
We are grateful to be alive.
I want none of your gratitude.
You're all on strict probation,
and I'd advise you not to attempt escape.
You understand your position?
I don't know.
A prisoner has the right to escape.
- That is correct.
- And a guest don't need to.
a little bit of both.
Consider that a fortunate
compromise then, Mr Land.
I tolerate no guests
aboard the Nautilus,
and you already know
the fate of prisoners.
The food is delicious,
isn't it, Professor?
Oh, very good. Never tasted better.
There's a fork on your left, Mr Land,
or aren't you accustomed to utensils?
I'm indifferent to 'em.
