I can't find them.

Once again please.

This is the observation bubble, which

I thought up in a dream actually.

Two Albino scouts

swim with the ship.

They're supposedly very intelligent although

I have never seen any evidence on it.

Here's the engine room, the bearing

casing is not suppose to look like that

but we can't afford to

fix them on the ship.

Tops that, we get the bridge,

then a sub, an old chopper,

all kinds of radars, sonar

and underwater movie gadgets.

What happened to Jack Cleeny?

She did not really love me.

Old Mandrake.

It is wonderful.

-Very lifelike.

-I am not crazy about it.

This guy is a big time a**hole.

We were roommates at the academy.

He used to married to Eleanor.

He owns apparently a lot of money.

You think you will

wanna change your name?

Ned...?

No. nothing the Ned

part unless you want to.

I meant your last name I thought you

might like to let me give you mine.

-Ned Zissou...

-Ned Zissou, exactly.

Or if you want to, you can

change the first part too.

I would have named you

Kingsley if I have a say in it.

Kingley... I don't know.

Maybe I will stick

with Ned for now.

Sure, that is ok. Anyway I will

order you some correspondent stuff.

What are you doing,

I ordered the wine.

Pour it over here please, he

doesn't know anything about wine.

Are those a**holes

talking about me?

People say when people say something like

that about you is because they are jealous

but it still hurts

It hurts bad.

That man was damn rude,

he can go straight to hell.

How did she die by

the way? your mother.

She took her own life,

took sleeping pills.

Why would she do that!?

Well, she was in a great

deal of pain, you know.

Oh...

I see, yeah.

You know my best friend

just got killed, Esteban.

Yea, I know. Your old man.

Let's go to my island.

Well, I have to be back

in Kentucky on Thursday.

Thursday? ok! that is ok.

(Singing in French)

Your cat's dead.

What? Which one?

Marmalade, I am sorry.

What happened?

A rattle snake bit

it in the throat.

God damn it, Eleanor, why did

you have to say it like that!

You couldn't try and break

it a little bit nicer!?

She is a rich b*tch, you

know. She was raised by maids.

Her parents paid for this

Island during my worst moments.

People say she the

brain behind team Zissou.

People say a lot of things.

What kind of cat was it?

Who gives a sh*t!

-I think it was a Tammy.

-Ned, wanna come inside, we'll make up a room for you.

Steve, that reporter called.

-Ned, wake up!

-yes

I am on echo box. Press

the red button to answer.

-Meet me on the beach in 12 minutes.

-The what button? OK.

Action!

Only twice before have I a good
