- Set back?

For one crankshaft? No chance.

The first thing you'd want

is a refund of your money,

and I've already spent

your money on her.

No, we're gonna sit

right here, and you...

you people are going to get your money's

worth whether you like it or not.

Ladies.

Now I understand why

we're the only passengers.

I think it's time for us to take

matters into our own hands.

Take over the ship?

I mean nothing of the sort.

There are two other

crew members on board.

They may not be smart, but they

seem to have their wits about them.

I'll admit he is a bit unusual,

but I think you're overreacting a bit.

Overreacting? Am I?

All right.

I warned you people.

You're inviting trouble

by not taking any action.

I've spoken my mind,

my conscience is clear.

Beverly.

I think I'll stay up a little longer.

I'll be in the cabin.

Hi.

- You really gave me a scare.

- Sorry.

I guess we're all a

little jumpy tonight.

Do you always steer

the boat with your feet?

You're not very talkative, are you?

Captain doesn't like us

messing with the passengers.

Do you stay up here

every night by yourself?

Ben was supposed to relieve me.

He needs the rest more than I do.

So, I've got the whole

dogwatch to myself.

Dogwatch?

It's the middle of the night watch.

I like it.

I get a chance to be alone.

Can you really tell where

we're going from this?

Sure.

How?

Calculating your speed,

time, and distance.

Where are we now?

I don't know.

What?

Our compass has been

out most of the day.

What's the matter?

I don't know. Did you hear anything?

I don't think so.

Now I do.

What the hell?

Are you all right?

Lend a hand here.

Where is it?

- Where's what?

- The freighter off the port bow.

Freighter nothing.

What it'd do, fly? Where's it gone?

Freighter coming down on us.

Running without lights.

Ships don't come up out of nowhere.

You ran us onto something!

He is telling the truth!

I saw it, too.

What happened?

Get back inside.

There's no danger here.

Well, it sounded like

we hit something!

Sure we hit something,

a school of canned tuna.

Take that jacket off, we're not sinking.

Not yet anyway.

Well, here's one goddamned

thing those bastards won't get.

What the hell?!

Has everyone gone crazy?!

Don't you know?

We've been hit by a ghost ship.

It's over there.

It was moving down on us, Dobbs.

It ain't going no place now.

But it was moving! I swear.

Where's Ben?

I wish I knew.

What do you mean?

Went looking for him

a little while ago.

He wasn't in his cabin,

and he wasn't no place else.

Come up on deck, and I found these.

First off, I figured he was

checking the underside.

Beats me.

Clothes here, dinghy's still here.
