The Odyssey Page #2

It's a deal.

That's not even gonna rent you

an icebreaker.

An icebreaker?

Who needs an icebreaker?

I am taking Calypso.

- The Calypso? In the Antarctic Ocean?

- Absolutely.

- Fabulous! I love that idea.

- She's a very good boat. She'll make it.

I love that idea.

Oh, that's great.

So right over here

Two coffees, please.

Excuse us for bothering you, Captain,

- but may I ask you for your autograph?

- Yes, of course.

- I admire you so much.

- I still remember those two sea-lions.

- What were their names again?

- Pepito and Christobelle.

- Christobelle!

- That's right. They were so adorable.

- We won't bother you any longer.

- And once again, bravo.

Thank you very much.

Have a good day. Thank you.

- OK. And this one?

- Yes, let me check.

- And this one?

- OK, yeah. This one at the top.

"My love,

I don't know

when you'll read this letter,

but after several days at sea

writing to you makes me feel

like you're not so far away.

The ocean here seems more immense

than anywhere else.

Soon we'll be in sight

of the first islands.

I cannot wait to discover

this unknown world."

We're going to try to circle around

to the west. Over.

The depression is growing too rapidly.

The only solution is to turn back

and head for shelter.

Otherwise, you'll encounter hell. Over.

Roger that.

It's time for you to turn back

and seek shelter. Over.

I'll get back to you.

Over and out.

Merry Christmas to you, baby!

Fools!

No one is gonna buy documentaries

about ecology. No one.

Yes, because TV channels don't want

any trouble with industrialists.

- That's why.

- Where the hell is the car?

They are the ones who pollute,

but they buy advertising time

every year.

- Cut out the left-wing diatribe for me.

- Hey, we don't need these guys.

The world's oceans are in danger.

I am here today to announce

the creation of the Cousteau Society.

A non-lucrative organization

whose mission is to protect nature.

If industrialists pollute,

it is not out of cynicism.

They do not want

to actively destroy the planet

and they will be willing to accept

and follow the regulations

of the politicians,

but the politicians don't do anything

because they are thinking

of their elections.

And the funds collected by

the Cousteau Society will be used

to produce our future documentaries

and to raise public awareness

for the need to save nature.

I believe it will take a widespread

people's movement

to push the governments

to take the necessary measures

to protect the planet.

Now, my son Philippe

and myself

will give conferences.

We will go and meet the people.

And you believe that the people

will rise to the occasion?

You see, people think the sea
