It Came from Beneath the Sea Page #6

to think of as it is.

Before you go, do you mind giving us

your reaction to our findings?

That'll be taken under

advisement. Mr. Secretary.

It's been very enlightening.

Thank you for all you've done.

Good night.

Good night, sir.

Well, that's letting us down easy.

Oh, you're just tired.

So what?

So I'm tired.

They didn't even believe us.

Well, they have to be cautious.

Of course.

We understand.

Does that mean that

we're free to go now?

Just as soon as your release

comes through, just a few days.

John, you can make the

Science Congress. Mmm-hmm.

If you play your cards right,

I can meet you in Cairo.

I was never very much

good at playing cards.

I'm awfully tired. I think

I'll go to the hotel now.

We can all go over together.

All right.

I'll just change.

She's a wonderful girl.

Sure is.

And you are a lucky man.

Lucky?

Don't we make our own luck, Commander?

Well, it isn't everyone

that can vacation in Egypt.

Vacation? Oh!

No, Leslie and I have

published contrary viewpoints

on the sinking nature of

the coast of the Red Sea.

We're going to investigate

via Aqua-Lung.

The loser is going to

publish a retraction.

Sounds ideal.

Nothing like mixing

pleasure with work, huh?

Work?

Oh, yes. That is your work, isn't it?

Well, I'm ready.

Fine.

Well, good night.

He's an interesting man.

Isn't he?

Stand by to abandon ship!

40 minutes, 13 seconds west.

I'm repeating our position.

Forget the signal.

Come on, men.

Over the side! Come on!

Move it!

Come on, fellows. Get over!

Get over there! Hurry!

(HAWAIIAN MUSIC PLAYING)

Nice of him to throw this

going away party for us.

Probably comes off of

his expense account.

You sound bitter.

Well, if he's giving us a going

away party, why isn't he here?

He's probably at a meeting of some kind.

What's the trouble, Leslie?

Oh, I don't know.

Just let down, nervous.

As nervous as a bride

left waiting at the altar.

Don't be a fool.

On the contrary.

I've been a sober professor

for so many years,

I feel I'm entitled to one

night of foolishness.

May I have this dance, Doctor?

Do you consider that

part of your foolishness?

Good evening.

I have your transportation passes

and releases signed,

sealed and delivered.

You'll be leaving

in the morning.

Believe me, in the Navy

that takes some doing.

Thanks, Pete. You've been

swell about everything.

He's probably glad

to get rid of us.

I'm glad you didn't wait.

I'll have the same.

Oh, and if the waiter

happens to wander by,

would you order me a T-bone,

rare, and some humble red wine?

Mmm-hmm.

Where are you going?

We, my dear doctor,

are going to dance.

With your permission, sir.

Live it up, children.
