Riff! Fedra, why you do that? Because you lazy. I was. It is Sunday, we're walking off. Pedro comes on his Sundays to help you get sponges, to help you to pay for a boat, your own boat. My own boat, that will be good, eh? Then, we get married, we have babies, maybe house. Babies, yes, plenty of babies. But a house? I do not see a house. For two years now you tell me soon I pay for a boat, I buy house. But I still work in windmill, and you still die for Mr. Orocopulos. Why always you talk world, money, money, world, not love? I like to make many wishes too. At night, to the stars, but you, Riff, you... What is the matter? You love Riff, you do as Riff say. Hey, Pedro! BF-WATCH TV 2021 See, see what happens when you play little girl tricks and run away from your rib, eh? He was laughing at me. The boy, he was all gold, so big. He was laughing and running a fish he was. Faye, stop. Don't talk, eh? Breathe, just breathe. Do not move, eh? You will be alright. I will take you to the English doctor. Cut it on a bit of coral, I imagine, eh? It wasn't the coral. How much do you charge for this? Oh, 20 drachma. 20 drachma? For 20 drachma I can buy a pair of shoes. Waste of money if you couldn't walk. Now I'm going to wash it off. It may hurt a little. Would it hurt, Doctor, if you washed your hands? We want Sunday. You see what happens? We work. I work for you. Now I cannot work for me. Now, keep still. Oh, now, now. It can't hurt all that much. So it doesn't hurt, so it doesn't cause to enter drachma. Well, perhaps you've got something in it. Let's have a look. Now, clench your fists. Hold our shoulders. Riff hard. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm You see? You see an elf from a ship. You said a fish. Yes, a boy on a fish. On a fish. Mmm, a dolphin. And you went too deep for your brains and you got stupid. Like you. Ecstasy of the deep, they call it. Your Albanian friend's right, my dear. There we are. There. Mmm Made to make it work. Come on if doing can't make Once in ten years your sister is sick, and Nico forgets to grease the windmill, so the blades don't turn. If the blades don't turn, who wants a windmill? Are you listening? They will throw us out of here someday. And who is going to support us then? It works! Go and catch us some fish for lunch, go! Not now! Dr. Hawkins is here! Nico! Well, my little gypsy, the doctor comes. The leg is well. I don't have another 20 drachma for you to say it's well. My dear, you don't understand. I give the baker carrier kikos the laxative and I charge him 50 drachma. Other patients, I charge none. Nothing. I'd bring them to prison. Tomorrow I'd break my right leg. Sublime. Sublime wound. No fever, no blackout, no fairy tales about meeting a shark. I never had a fever. And I never said it was a shark. Oh, my mistake, of course. You said a swordfish. Swordfish? It was a dolphin. Like this? Yes, just like this, but only one. My little gypsy, my very dear little gypsy, we're rich! Rich? No, not rich. Very, very rich. You know where I've been for the past 24 hours. Giving a laxative to the baker Karikikos? No, no, no. I went over to Delos. I sat over the parchments in the old archive, looking up a legend. Then, I copied the mosaic. I forgot all about my patients, I didn't sleep, I didn't eat. I'll get you some cheese, don't... Sit down! Eh... This nail, which stuck in your leg, is hundreds and hundreds of years old. It comes from the hull of an ancient vessel, which according to the legend was carrying art treasures to Delos, but sank in a storm within sight of this island a long time ago. Oh, when Christ was a little boy. Santa Maria. Then you believe me. It was a ship. Oh, yes. I believe you. And the trouble is to find someone who will believe us. And that someone's got to be the right someone. My cousin Nikita. His wife is the niece of Andros Palosti. He owns all the donkeys in Santa Maria. My dear, the right someone is not someone who owns donkeys, but someone who owns money. Gregory Granitos, my uncle. He has a rich wife who is going to die, eh? Petra, no one in your family is going to be included in this. Only you and me, my little gypsy. We are going to be rich. Rich! Good. You say a lot of words, doctor. The one I like best is money. Then go and sell sponges back in Albania. Go dive in Albania, too. I can, doctor. I am in love. Love? Ha! You just want to share up this. Why not? I know the spot where I'm from, and I like to be rich. Simple. Simple? Well, there's an old Greek proverb which says a third of something is better than half of nothing. Now, the people to go to. They must be rich, preferably foreign and reasonably honest. But only reasonably. The Americans? Yes! In Athens there are always dozens of them poking around the Acropolis, digging. Now, the one to go to is the man in charge. Good, I go to Athens today. You go to Athens? Spend your money on wine? Plenty of girls in Athens! And if the police ask you for papers, what happens, huh? You want him to go? Never mind about that! The police arrest him on the street! Now children, children, let's not quarrel! Nico! Go and find my shoes! Huh? I can't go to Athens without shoes. Thank you. Thank you. Hey, take it easy boys. They don't make them like that anymore. Anybody wants me, I'll be in the museum. BF-WATCH TV 2021 Dr. Calder, Mr. Bowman and the party have been waiting. I'm sorry, but our wall had other ideas. Well, I tried giving them cokes. I didn't know what to do. Oh, Dill, that's a great hunk of wall. Wait till they bring it up and take a look at it. at it. Where's what's his name? Mr. Baldwin. Mr. William B. Baldwin. He's down in the museum right now appraising the fruits of our labors, plus wife and daughter. And remember, he's the treasurer of the foundation. There's always a treasurer. I'll see you. And Dr. Calder. Huh? Will you please try to remember for your own sake that treasurers have feelings too? Ha! Hey, you! You said he'd be here before lunch. I had lunch, twice. And onions both times. I have to go to Eda tonight. I've only one day's chief. I'm sorry, but you saw for yourself how busy he was. But that working man with the whistle is the American boss? That's right. You're not fooling me, missus. No, he is busy. And I haven't had lunch, so if you'll excuse me. Oh, I... Nothing personal, Calder, but this museum's an anti-climax after what you see in Rome, Paris, and London. What do you expect? Every thief and crook in Europe isn't hijacking the great works of Greece to fill the museums of the rest of the world. No need to be violent. I'm on your side, remember? I'm sorry, I just get mad every time I talk about it. Well, do you want to go on, or want some more questions? Yes. How long do you think I can stay here in Athens? I have to go home. Now, you want to see me or don't you want to? Huh? Do I? About what? Say they come back later. I'll show you something. I know you. You found something. A great treasure. Yeah. Thousands of years old. How did you know? In 1820, a shepherd from one of the islands found the Venus de Milo. But this is not Venus de Milo. This is another thing. And since then, every year, shepherds, fishermen come to Athens with stories about statues and, well, just stories. So, you don't want to listen? All right. I'll go to the French, the Italian, the English. They will listen. That is where I go. Rather simple people, the Greeks. Yeah, so simple they made a thing like this a couple of thousand years ago. Don't stop him. Let him ride. Let the Jockey Boy ride. But he's riding a nothing. What a folly, wasting the supreme works of the human spirit upon a base and ignorant public. Fall on your knees before a child and remember, the jockey boy of Artemisian is 2,100 years older than you are and infinitely more sublime. Mr. Eurich American? An irrelevant question and a decidedly impertinent one. You may leave me alone now. Shoo! You shoo! Oh, there you are. Tired? No, just tired. Oh, good. Then you can afford to buy me a martini at Zonar's. Uh-oh, the return of the native. You stay here. I'll handle myself quietly. Look, I'm very sorry, miss, but... I'm not a shepherd. Oh, Casey, you're not a shepherd. I went to see French. The man there, he pinched me. The English say they have enough troubles. The Italians say they have enough statues. All right, what statue? Well, you see this? Um, I'll, um, get the car, and I'll wait. Uh, the Frenchman do that? No, the nail on the ship with the dolphin, 2,000 years old. So when the English doctor take it out of my skin, he make... Look. You see? You'd better sit down. It's a drawing of the mosaic on the island of Delos. You from Delos? No, Idra. And you really saw a statue of a boy on a dolphin in the bottom of the sea? Of course I see it. Big. I can sell it to you, maybe, if you pay me plenty of money. Oh, I know, but hold on. I don't want to... You don't believe me. Listen. Today in museum I see another boy. Just like mine, but mine he rides a fish, a dolphin fish. You really saw the boy on a dolphin in the bottom of the sea? No, on a ship. English doctor call it ancient vessel. This nail is from a vessel. Look. Let's start again. Let's get it straight. But I told you to start from here. Hi. Look, what's your name? Fidra. Oh, where are you staying? What hotel? No hotel. Hotel cost money. Hmm. Here, take it. It's okay. It's on doxy. It's not okay. It's not on doxy. If your American company take my dolphin fish out from the sea, 500 drachma, it's not okay. It's not on doxy. Not if you have that boy on the dolphin. I have. Then you can have anything you wish. What would you like most? For me plenty of money is enough. But for Nico... And who is Nico? He's my brother. Lazy Bug. When he grow up he'll go to university. Like you. You know, I think we can make a deal. Meet me at the Astoria at 7 o'clock. Be there. Yes. Okay. Oh, and I'll send a cable to Yale and tell them a new freshman by the name of Lazy Bug is coming. Bye. I'm sorry, it is not permitted to serve an unescorted lady. I am waiting for a man. That is exactly what I mean. No lady can be. But I am hungry. Please, I cannot serve a lady seated by herself. Oh, him I know. I sit with him. Mr. Parmalee? You see? Now I'm not alone, I'm with a friend. My bill, please. No, no, stay here. It's not permitted for me to be alone. I'd like my radio. Huh? That is, of course, unless you intend to hatch it. Oh, I didn't even feel it. It's a soft radio. Lady, please, I must ask you to go. You go. Dr. Calder, the American, tell him I'm here. He wants very much what I find. His most important business. Shh. Do I understand that you're having dinner with the illustrious Dr. Calder? I have dinner now. You want some? I'd love it. Allow me to choose an appropriate beverage. Ah, now let me see. What would be the best vintage? Goats milk for two. Yes, sir. He's important man, Dr. Calder, eh? In his pedestrian way. Incorruptible Jim, I call him. You know him a long time? Our paths have crossed and recrossed. In Dresden, Rotterdam, Florence, wherever the Nazis looted. Raphael's and Rembrandt's even down to a dreary little china pot which belonged to Madame Pompadour there was always Captain Jim Calder of the US Army restoring priceless objects to their rightful owners a typical middle class gesture Well, I'm glad to find out that Jim has finally turned to something more earthy. Eh? He has a date with a pretty girl instead of a marble bus. No, we have a business deal together. Oh, very enterprising. May I inquire? inquire what kind of a business deal. We're all going to have plenty of money and Nick will go to university. Don't tell me you're selling a family treasure to Jim Calder. Oh no, something I found in the sea. The secret? It's not a secret. I never pry. There's nothing more becoming than a woman with a secret. Ah, excuse me. There's evidently a phone call for me. Boy. Yes sir? Just talk. Repeat your name six times. Hm? Your name, six times. Dimitri Papadopoulos. Dimitri Papadopoulos. Dimitri Papadopoulos. Dimitri Papadopoulos. Four would be enough. Thank you. Actually, it was a call for you. Doctor called and sent word he'll be delayed two hours. Two hours? It's so long. Yes, it is. You know, it's very warm here. You have two hours. We'll take a drive. My car and chauffeur are waiting outside. You ask me to ride in your chauffeur in the car? With great pleasure. Okay, we go. Good evening, Dimitri. Thank you. Where's the boat for Hadrian? Gone. You weren't really thinking of following that girl all the way to the island, were you? Why wasn't I? She made sense. Because this isn't archaeological field work, that's why. It's treasure hunting. Treasure hunting? You know, Dale, you gave me a great idea. And you talked yourself out of a martini. We're leaving Athens right now. Oh no, sorry, not me. I like my job. Don't you? I love it. That's why I'm doing it. See to it that the lady is made comfortable. She is to be allowed complete freedom of the yacht, but under no circumstances is she to be permitted to leave. Yes, sir. I am spending the night ashore. In the morning, Tonino will drive me to Epidaurus. If I can find what I am looking for there, I shall return tomorrow. If not, I shall go on to the monastery of Meteora. Now remember, the ladies will be kept aboard as our guest. Is that clear? Yes, sir. I'm sorry you could not find what you were looking for in our library, Mr. Parmalee. It was a shot in the dark. Perhaps you'll have a better look at Meteora. After what you told me about the roads, I sincerely hope so. I love you, darling. You or me? Neither, I'm afraid. That's her husband up there. Darn right it is. I love you too, honey. The finest acoustics the world has ever known. Made nauseating by the cooings of tourists. I heard that. Serves you right for eavesdropping. Good luck at Meteora, sir. Thank you very much. BF-WATCH TV 2021 We're here, sir. How do I get up there? A lift, sir. Monastery sent down a lift. Ah! Which button do I press? Hello! Obviously, I pressed the wrong button. Thank you, brother. Welcome to Meteora. May I ask who carries your insurance? We put our trust in the Almighty. A very safe company. I hate to impose myself. I can see you're all frightfully busy, so I shall be brief. I am seeking information about an object which I have reason to believe reposes on the ocean floor. What kind of object? A button? Bone? Wheelbarrow? A ship. Sunk many years ago. Five hundred years? A thousand? Two thousand? Two thousand is near enough. Do you know where to look? We have over 3,400 volumes. My only clue is a 12th century manuscript written by a scholar of Venus. The wonder of heaven's humor. For years, dust gathers on our manuscripts. And today, before the call to Matins, you are the second man to ask the same question. I beg your pardon? If I can be of help, I will come to the library after Matins. Thank you, brother. I should have made a reservation. Well, hello, Parmalee. What are you doing here? Run out of Greek quotations? An impossibility. You of all people should know that. I don't get it. New York, London, Paris... May I? It doesn't ring. Please, Jim, no open wounds. We've got too much in common. Not money. But we both love the things that can't buy. For a practical man, Jim, you waste your time on an awful lot of nonsense. I like that about you. And the boy rode downwards into the wine-dark sea. On the back of the sea god's playmate, a boy of gold upon an iron dolphin. Bronze. I stand corrected. Bronze. Ah, at a place far down upon the Peloponnesus sank our finest treasure. Peloponnesus. That satisfy you? What satisfies me more, James, finding you here? I loathe having dusty fingers. Well, I must hurry or I'll miss my basket. I'd hate to see you go to jail, Victor. Sentimentality is still your most endearing weakness, Jim. Keep it up. Let me remind you of paragraph 9 of the Penal Code of Greece. Any and all objects having historical value cannot, under any circumstances, be removed from Greek territory or territorial waters. They are to be considered the property of the Greek nation. Yes, Jim, I know all about paragraph 9. I'm the reason they wrote it. I'm sorry. I quite agree. Oh, you, you! Before you say anything else, let me ask you a question. No! I know those questions! All tricks and mix-ups! We ride in the car, you ask me if I want a glass of water, I say I go diving in Hydra. We get here to the boat, you ask me if I like fresh air, I say I'm so sunk! We sit in the cabin. You ask me my mother's name. Do I say Katrina Zibilis Chrysantas? No! I say I saw a boy on a dolphin. And what happens? You go and I wait here for two days. Weren't you comfortable? Didn't they take good care of you? Oh, too much care. They kept me here. No more questions, sir. Good. Now, my question is, if I bring a crew and diving equipment to Idra, can you locate that exact spot again? Go. Surely you're not going to the police without your shoes. I'm going to Mr. Calder. Do that. It'll be very profitable. He gave you 500 drachma. He may give you 500 more. Then let me see. You'll have 1,000 drachma. In dollars, that means... Oh, no, Mr. Mixup. You can't confuse me anymore. At least do me one favor. It may be chilly. Take your wrap. Uh-huh. I haven't got a wrap. Come here. It's Belgian lace from Brussels. Very old and very precious. And now, I want the finest statue in Greece. The one you found. For that, you will have a string of fishing boats, perhaps even more, and live in Athens to the end of your days. Well, I don't know. I have to talk to Dr. Hawkinson Drift. I must go to Hydra. What time is it? Give me your hand. So you will always know. It ticks. It's 4.15. The boat leaves at 5. What boat? The boat to Idra. We're already on our way to Idra. Hi there. I'm looking for a girl called Phaedra. They said she lived up here. Yes, my sister. Oh, then you're Lazybug. Hi, Lazybug. Hi, mister. Your sister back from Athens? We are waiting for her. Oh. You're an American, sir? Yes, my name's Calder. She paid me a visit in Athens. Please, sir, sit down. Oh, thank you. Uh, Nico, clean the gentleman's shoes. Oh, no, no, never mind. My dear sir... Perhaps you'd like a drink? Nico, milk the goat. Oh, no, relax, please. I just came for a little information. You, sir, and Phaedra, why you do not arrive together? Well, that's what I came here to find out. But you had a nice little chat with our Phaedra. Oh, sure. How did you get along? Great, great, great. Like a million. Look, I left my diving gear down at the wharf. Would somebody give me a hand? Yes, Nico. Help the gentleman with his luggage. Oh. Be seeing you, gentlemen. Seeing you. Did you hear what he said? A million! This is not the harbor of Hydra. This is Mandrake Bay, not Hydra. Nobody has lived here for ten years. How very fair of you, my dear. Then we go on. To the harbor itself? With everyone looking on? Not quite. We'll stay where we are. Safe from prying eyes. I should have been proud to sell Intuidra. Everybody would look at me with big eyes. Nico, Riff, Dr. Hawkins, everybody. My dear savage, try to remember. This is still a highly extra-legal enterprise. What do you mean, extra? I shall explain. It's a transaction which, if successfully concluded, results in no imperfect adventure with the law. In short, a buyer's risk. And I'll thank you not to flourish that shawl. But what must I do with it if I cannot wear it? Hide it. Put it away somewhere out of sight. Now then, go ashore. Prepare everything softly, quietly. When the marker is in the water, let me know. I have all the latest equipment below. I'll take it from there. Hey, what about our money? Upon delivery, as in all transactions of this nature. A boat from Athens is due at three. Means you won't be here before six? Yeah, if she's on it. Please, I'm quite nervous enough. Come on, let's have another. There isn't a sick man on the entire island. Fedra! Hey! Look, for you. All the way from Athens. Thank heavens! And you're early. It's only three o'clock. Three? It's exactly... Never mind, child. Never mind. Two fifty-four and a half. Look, twenty-one jewels. Where? You can't see them, they're all inside. Why inside? So nobody can see them. Where you get this from? I got it. The American? Of course. The doctor said go and find the rich man. Well, I found the rich man. We know, we know. Everything is clear and perfect. I even like the way he whistles. You got the wrong man. You're a pair of stupid. Nothing is clear and perfect. But why? Now we have big question. We go to the yacht at Mandrake Bay. Come. Nico, go home. Federer, will you take the boat? No, not the boat. We go by the hills. Hey, Mr. American! Shoeshine, mister. Best shoeshine on the island. Is that right? That's right. Okay, Nico, you got yourself a deal. Come on up. 41 42 Mr. Parmalee? Yes? 43 You know who is in the island? Who? 44 Calder Missed that one It was just a matter of time. Jim Calder is no beginner. These are my friends, Dr. Hawkins and Rick. We'll exchange cards later. Did you tell Calder I was here? Exactly not. If he wants trouble... I suggest you use that on your fingernails. Well, this orders our plans. As long as Calder is around, no activity on our part. No marker is to be put in the water. It's my fault. I'm too friendly with the people. Uncoil, my dear, uncoil. We have all the time in the world. We'll bake in the sun for a while and have a glass of Madeira. Will you play hostess? No, they don't want to drink. But what am I going to do with Dr. Calder? He'll want her to die for him. And get the statue. I wonder if you could explain to these stockholders that they'll be quiet now, they can have a bone later. You'll dive with Calder. What? Dive all over the Aegean Sea, except in one spot. The spot with the boy and the dolphin. But sir... Dive until he runs out of patience, runs out of ambition, out of money, oxygen and hope. Oh, Mr. Parmalee, you have plenty of noodles, you know. Thank you. Now we all have wine. Fish eggs? Caviar, to be precise. You like that? Like many expensive things, and a quiet taste. Here's hoping you acquire it. Soon. Yasu. Nico! This is Monsieur Sardotogini. Well, welcome to Hydra. Yes, and if I waited for you I would not be in Hydra, I would still be in Athens. Oh now wait a minute, I... And you lazy bug, go back to the windmill, do not talk with strangers. We're not strangers, we're all college chumps. And look at your face, how dirty it is. Go home and wash yourself. And you? You are not a trusty man. Absolutely not. I'm not? Well, as long as you admit it, I will not be angry anymore. All right, I'll admit it, but where do we go from there? You still want to get the statue? Sure. As a matter of fact, I'm going to hire a boat, a crew, and... I'll hire a boat and a crew. Like that it will be cheaper for you. How much? Well, 500 dragma. I get fine crew and boat for that. 500? Hmm? What do you think I am, a millionaire? No. I have a better idea. Can you handle the motor? I'll try. Good, I handle boom. Boat I get free. Crew we don't need, so we save money. Oh. I wish you'd handle my income tax. Eh? Huh. Nothing, just forget it. I'll meet you here at eight o'clock tomorrow and we'll go diving, okay? Hold your breath like I told you and you'll have it made. Yes, but my ears! A couple of more days, you'll get used to it. BF-WATCH TV 2021 I was sure this was the spot. Well, that's how it goes. It's a big ocean. But it was here. The sun was up there. And the boat was in straight line with that cliff. And today nothing but sand. Today's... The days are longer and the sun's in a different position. Oh, yes, yes, longer days. You know, you're smart, Cookies. Next we try over there. Oh, no, that's all for today. What? Yeah, we gotta save the air in the tanks. Plant your very tanks. All right. Then let's save you. Oh. BF-WATCH TV 2021 You like that? What? We've been diving every day for two weeks. At least we found something. Exactly nothing. Could be we found half the answer to the big question mark. Now if we can fit it together with... with the other half, maybe... Here, come on. Don't you want to go on? It's only morning, we had the whole day. No, I got some things to do and I... Look at them. Line of duty, my boy. I'll see you in the morning. Oh, is it all for today? I'll tell you what I'll do. You meet me at the taverna, and if you're a real good girl, I'll buy you a drink. Eight o'clock. Eight o'clock, sharp. Sharp. Well, and doxy? Special shining grease. How much? For you, special bargain. Free. Well, we'll sweeten the kitty then. One, two... Caviar, pretty fancy. Not good, reef no like it. Do you always serve caviar at the windmill? Fedra bring from the yacht. She said it was good for me. Oh, a yacht? What yacht? Big ship, Mandrake Bay. Mandrake Bay? Where's Mandrake Bay? Other side of the island. Nobody can see it. Oh. Well, lazy bug, you'd better scoot home. Your sister might want you. Okay. So long. Tonino, we'll be two for luncheon. Yes, sir. Well, what a cozy little spot. Smuggler's Cove. Just suits you. Surprised to see me? To the contrary. I was expecting you. Huh. No wonder you hijack somebody else's paintings. You're playing a losing game, Calder. You haven't got a chance. You really want that boy on the dolphin, don't you? Yes. That's why I'm so annoyed at you. Why bother to stick around? The girl won't help you, and you can't help but find the statue alone. So? So, when you're dead, lie down. Maybe you're right. As long as we've got the cards on the table. Tell me, if I'm not around, how do you get it out of the Greek waters? Jim, you're talking to me as if I were a man of honor. I'm not. Lunch? Will you join me? Thanks. Please. Pepper? Salt? My, what a pretty picture of Benjamin Franklin. Thumb through. He gets better looking. It's money. I presume you've heard of money. Don't try to be noble and turn it down. There's nothing as noble as money. Sorry, but your soup's cold. So is the bottom of your GNC. I love you, I love you, I love you The one who calls it love, the one, the one who hides her heart's longing and every yearning and nostalgia. What is this that they call love? What is this? What is this? The olive tree, every rain Of our life and end and beginning Never, never did any mouth Then don't break it and don't What is it that they call love? What is it, what is it that makes you see the purpose? I love Go ahead, dance with them. I'll dance for you. It was good? Sure was. You know, it's too bad you and I aren't on the same team. But we are on the same team. Are we? Of course we are. We die well. We love together. We are good together. Sure, when we find sponges, coral, rusty bathtubs, but... No statue. Don't worry, in the end we will find it. Yes, I'll find it, but... Not with you. With science. You know, it's a pity, but... Science has a way of spoiling things. For a lot of people. What science? Well, this afternoon I got a little box that finds metal underwater. You know, by sound. No diving? Oh, yes. But you only dive once, then you get it. Nico! Nico! Where is he? Nico, where have you been? It's late for you. We have to go home. Quick! Why? It is not late. It is late. I'm sorry. No, that's all right. You take him home, put him to bed, and come on back. I'll be waiting for you. Dr. Calder knows everything. That we have tricked him. Everything. Tomorrow he starts to go in a boat. But alone. To find our statue. He will take it away from us. Alone he will never find it. He has a machine. It listens. An American machine. An underwater sound detector. Our friend Dr. Calder is a very determined man. You're right, my dear Phaedra. The statue must be moved tonight. Break out all necessary equipment. Torch, lamp, ropes, oxygen, aqualungs. And send Tonina with them. Yes, sir. And I'll prepare to bring the statue aboard as soon as they return. You'll do nothing of the kind, not now. Not with call of watching like a hawk. And certainly not in these waters. It's too risky. When the time is right, we will meet at this island. The one that looks like a whale. The transfer will take place there. Now listen carefully. You and your partner here will cut the statue loose from the ship's hull and move it into a cave. Or better still, into the grotto nearby. The one beneath the lighthouse. Here. After we are down, watch the float. You know the signals. One for rope, two for oxygen. Okay. Riff? Good morning, did I wake you up? Yes. Well, I couldn't sleep last night, and you didn't come to the taverna. You didn't show, so I... You are going to die now? So early? No, not quite yet. It's gonna be kinda lonely out there. I'll miss you. Oh... How do you like that for a laugh? I do not laugh. I only... Only what? I don't know what. I'll tell you what. The prettiest girl that ever lived under a windmill. Santa Maria, help me. I'm mixed up. That's a dream, that's a dream! Hi, Ladybug. Dr. G, I come with you, please? Sure, there's always room for you, partner. Hop aboard. Is that present for you, Dr. G? No, not exactly. In a second, we'll take a look at it. You know what this is? Look, it's a... Hey, you really go for that, don't you? Well, it's yours. For me? For you. Thank you, Dr. Jean. I can help you, please, Dr. Jean? Yeah. As a matter of fact, you can help an awful lot. When we go in the water, you listen to this gadget. When it goes tick, tick, tick, you start to yell. Okay, if it makes tick, tick, I yell. Well, what are you going to do? Listen to the fishes? That's the sound sometimes. Riff, look, Dr. G gave it to me. Ah, it's all right for a small boy. Hey, Doctor? I never found I needed a bigger knife. But for a strong man, this one is better, no? It all depends. Sometimes it's the other way around. The smaller the man, the bigger the knife. Dr. G, you look for sponges? Right now I'd settle for one. Here is no good for sponges. The sister never dives here. Oh, where does the sister dive? Sometimes over there and sometimes over there. And once she dives over there. All good spots, huh? Not all good. Over there is much coral, deep. Fedra, she cut a leg. It's not good. All the same, Nico, we go over there, where your sister hurt her leg. Okay. Okay. Nice big canvas, Victor. Nice big sea, too, wasn't it, Calder? Big, not too big. Well, well. A lie detector? I see. Who's your small scientific friend? He's a bright boy, almost as bright as his sister, Phaedra. And you know how bright she is? They don't come any brighter, Jim. You may as well face it. How about a pick-me-up? You must need one. Badly. On the yacht? On the yacht. Go ahead, Jim. She's all yours. If you happen to find the boy in a dolphin, let me know. I'd like to see it myself. No, I think I'll take a rain check. Promise? I promise. Tonino! Yes, sir? I want you to take this message to Riff at once. Not the girl. To Riff. Now listen carefully. Sir, what do you want? You sent for us to run quick. We ran. You smile. Why? Now, Federer, did you not see the vote for Mr. Pameli? Of course I saw it. But why did he send it to you? He sent it to tell me the plan. And now, I tell you the plan. Tonight, at the festival, you will dance for Dr. Calder. I dance when my feet tell me to, not when you tell me to. You will dance when I tell you to. You will dance for Dr. Calder. His eyes will only watch you. He will not watch me. While you dance, I will go away. I will go to Poros. And I will get a big fast boat tonight. Tonight? Tonight we are going to be rich, my little gypsy, rich. Stop it. Not tonight. Tomorrow. Tomorrow in the evening, we will go to the cave, take the statue in the fast boat, and go quick to the island that looks like a well and give the statue to Mr. Family. Then we get money tomorrow. Tomorrow, did you say? Why not today? You talk too much, you drink too much, and I do not need you. I do not need anybody. If you two want money, you do what Riff say. What is this money, Riff? Where did you get it? Faye, do you not trust me? Pomeroy gave him money to get a boat, not for the doctor to get drunk. But why did you hit him? Fedra is angry with me, huh? But she is still beautiful. And after tomorrow, she will not be angry. She will be rich. I kiss when I want to kiss. All right. But remember... Tonight when you dance for color, you dance with your feet and your head, not with your heart. I'm sorry, Riff, if I spoke out of turn. All right, I forget it, but you watch her, that she dances, that she keeps him there. If we want money tomorrow, you do what I say tonight. BF-WATCH TV Ah, my dedicated and learned friend, Dr. Caldwell. Won't you join me in a delicious glass of wine? No, thank you, doctor. I was just looking for... Hi. Hi. I've been waiting for you. Yes? You wanted to talk to me? No, I thought you might dance for me tonight. You're happy tonight. Oh, why shouldn't I be? Everybody's happy. Yeah, even Dr. Hawkins. He's very happy. And Riff, I... I wonder where Riff is. Well, Riff's okay, too. What about you? Of course. I have every reason. I guess you have it then. Stop it. You will lose everything. Dr. Hawkins? You know me, sir? You're not a stranger in Greece, Dr. Hawkins? A guest, but not a stranger. A guest? Yes, I suppose I am, really. You've put up with me for a long time, haven't you? You've put up with me for a long time, haven't you? You've put up with me for a long time, haven't you? You've made me feel rather ashamed. You've made me feel rather ashamed. Then? Let's drink to ambition, riches, and above all, to trustworthy friends. To trustworthy friends. Now I will dance. For whom? For whom? For the dance. The Art of Life The Art of Life When did it leave? Half an hour maybe, I think. Thanks partner. You uh, you watch your sister dance, she's very good. Worked out well, didn't it? Smile, you damn bitch. Riff meets Parmalee. You've got a nice smile, Phaedra. You dance well. Just thought I'd tell you that. But don't ask me to shake your hand, it's too dirty. And your hand, Dr. Calder. When you dig in the earth, it's never dirty because... because you don't have to dig. You are a famous archaeologic man. You do not shine shoes or work in the windmill. Or die for sponges and break your... lungs you are an american and if you had founded the statue you would have taken glory yes but not changed nico's life or riffs or dr hawkins life by one piece of bread that's why i'm happy you'll never see the statue in your life dr calder I'm happy for you too, Fed. For you, for your partners. You got together, the statue's gone, you're set for the rest of your life. Yes, and it is good. And you're a cheat and a thief like any other thief. The only difference is the house you stole from tonight is your own country. I'm not a thief. I have not stolen. I have found. And what I have found in this is mine, to sell for me. What about your own people? The people of Greece? They're the losers. They'll never see it. You think the people of Greece, they live their life like you in a museum? What do you know about Greek people? You are an American. And you're a Greek girl and it's a Greek statue. And being an American, it's none of my business. That is exactly right, Dr. Calder. Maybe. Maybe I don't know a lot about Greek people. But I've learned something about the people of this island. Your statue could have meant excitement and pride to them, but no one's gonna see it now, no one! Don't you worry. You'll have everything in the world except friends, neighbors, and a country. Go away! Go away from this island! And I wish never to see you again! Oh! Wet melons. Sponges. Not a bad life after all, is it? The statue! Huh? It's still here in the cave. You want to see it now? Top one. Tomorrow, we will go tomorrow. In the morning. It will be time enough. Statue's been down there a long time. I... I wouldn't want to lose it now. It is safe. It's in a secret cave. In the morning early, we will see it. Together. Promise? Jim, I don't know what has happened. Listen to me. I didn't do this or know about this. Riff must have come here. He has taken it this morning. Early, I guess. You think last night I stopped you so that he could take it? No, it's not true. It couldn't be. You didn't stop me, I stopped myself. Say you know I didn't do this. Say it. Or I lost everything, Jim. Forget it, I have. I threw away the only thing that mattered for... something that'll never matter. Don't say that. Here. It's not your fault you believed in your viewpoint. You stuck with it, but I didn't stick with mine. Jim, I'm sorry for this morning, for now. But I will never be sorry for last night. So, what will you do? What will I do? What you do is between you and Riff. What I do is between myself and the Greek government. I'll give them the facts, get off of the island and go back and start digging. Fedra! Fedra! Reef told me you must come quickly. He has something for you, quickly. When did he send you to me? He has been looking for you. He is in his mobile. Come. Nico, wait for me. Please, I'll come with you. No, I have to talk to Riff, alone. I'll be back quickly. And do not come down. Fedra, I have been looking for you. Where have you been? Where is the statue? Ah, the statue. It will make your eyes want to see it. And why do you ask where is it? Tell me. Is it here? I want to know. I show you. Come. And I will tell you why it is here, not in the cave. Tonight, we sail to the island, and afterwards we go far away. I must get Nico. I must go to the house. to the house. House or to Calder. That is why I take the statue. Oh, I'm sorry, Chief, but I... Well, I hate to interfere in your work, but this is kind of important. I'm sorry, Dr. Calder, and you are right. It is important. You see, this will be one of our last games together, he and me. Perhaps the last. Oh, is that so? Pardon me while I catch a slow boat for Athens. But it is thanks to you, Dr. Calder, that it is so. Oh, you know my name. Glad I accomplished something. Of course I know you. I know also that you have come to warn us about the statue. that is being taken to Mr. Parmelis' yacht tonight. Huh. You won the jackpot. That's exactly the point. I have not won it yet. Hmm. Well, that makes two of us. By the way, what do you do? In a small way, I represent the Greek government. For the past weeks, I've been watching you dive until I'm almost out of breath. Fortunately, Mr. Parmely feels the same way. As a result, we'll get him, and you'll get the statue. Well, I hope you're right. Dr. Carter, if anything changes our plans, I'll let you know immediately. Will you be here? Yeah, I'll be here. Good. If I let you loose, will you swim and run away? Oh. Dr. Hawkins! Dr. Hawkins! Ah, Nico! Pedro, quick! Ha ha, the birds have flown. I'm afraid she's of the same feather. Flown together. Gone. No reef has taken her. He has tied her. Tied her? Tied her where? By the small bay, in the red cake. He can't find the water. Fed, she show me. The statue. The statue. And the water. You are angry, but it will not last. In two days, you will be in my country, Albania, and we will be married and rich and happy. In a hurry, but from color? I'm going to wait a few more seconds if I have to. Apparently I have waited for years. Better receive cargo. Stand by the way anchor. Mr. Pommely, are you there, sir? Of course I'm here. Stop talking and hoist your cargo. Where is it? Fares the money. Mr. Parmely, we have never met before, but if I may say so, I know your work. Thank you. Nevertheless, whoever you are, flattery will get you nowhere. It is not flattery, mister. I represent the Greek government. In that case... you may apologize briefly and leave. You are under arrest, Mr. Parmely. Arrest? This is preposterous. On what charge? Theft of Greek national property. Hi, Victor. Hi. Is it okay to go up and get that rain check? Go ahead. It appears to be that kind of night. It's not on the yacht. How do you know? I guess I know Victor Parmely. Hold it. Cross your fingers. Well, Victor, this must be yours. It's got your monogram on it. Rather incriminating evidence, Mr. Parmelin. Of what? Attempted theft of Greek national treasure. Before you handcuff me, may I, in the interest of Greek justice, ask one simple question? Go ahead, please. This treasure I'm to be arrested for stealing, might I be told its size, weight, and color? Its age, shape, and value? Have you seen it? Have you? Are you? Well, there go your handcuffs. Have you, Mr. Parmely? I have not. You admit no guilt whatsoever? To the contrary. I am 100% guilty of an unforgivable crime. A crime of failure. Well, under the circumstances, Dr. Calder, perhaps it would be better for us to wait for Mr. Parmely until the next time. Until the next time, Calder? Well, it's been a long night. Let's head for home. Let's. Weigh anchor. Order, sir. Ah, yes, order, sir. Course, southwest by west. Speed, twelve knots. Destination? Destination? Monte Carlo. Strange, so empty. They must have gone to the ball game. Hit your ride at Athens? I'll be back in three minutes. Good. Zee! I can't! You told me! It is good? It is good. Zazen! I can't! Good work, Nico! How do you like that little guy? Went under the boat and cut the ropes and cut them underwater with a pocket knife. You say he's only a statue, and what can a statue achieve? And yet, while I'm gazing at you, my heart tells my head to believe If the boy whom the gods have enchanted should arise from the sea And the wish of my heart could be granted I would wish that you loved only me

Because you lazy. I was. It is Sunday, we're walking off. Pedro comes on his Sundays to help you get sponges, to help you to pay for a boat, your own boat. My own boat, that will be good, eh?

Then, we get married, we have babies, maybe house. Babies, yes, plenty of babies. But a house? I do not see a house. For two years now you tell me soon I pay for a boat, I buy house.

But I still work in windmill, and you still die for Mr. Orocopulos. Why always you talk world, money, money, world, not love? I like to make many wishes too.

At night, to the stars, but you, Riff, you... What is the matter? You love Riff, you do as Riff say.

Hey, Pedro! BF-WATCH TV 2021 See, see what happens when you play little girl tricks and run away from your rib, eh? He was laughing at me. The boy, he was all gold, so big. He was laughing and running a fish he was.

Faye, stop. Don't talk, eh? Breathe, just breathe.

Do not move, eh? You will be alright. I will take you to the English doctor. Cut it on a bit of coral, I imagine, eh?

It wasn't the coral. How much do you charge for this? Oh, 20 drachma. 20 drachma?

For 20 drachma I can buy a pair of shoes. Waste of money if you couldn't walk. Now I'm going to wash it off.

It may hurt a little. Would it hurt, Doctor, if you washed your hands? We want Sunday. You see what happens? We work.

I work for you. Now I cannot work for me. Now, keep still. Oh, now, now.

It can't hurt all that much. So it doesn't hurt, so it doesn't cause to enter drachma. Well, perhaps you've got something in it.

Let's have a look. Now, clench your fists. Hold our shoulders.

Riff hard. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm You see? You see an elf from a ship.

You said a fish. Yes, a boy on a fish. On a fish.

Mmm, a dolphin. And you went too deep for your brains and you got stupid. Like you. Ecstasy of the deep, they call it. Your Albanian friend's right, my dear.

There we are. There. Mmm Made to make it work. Come on if doing can't make Once in ten years your sister is sick, and Nico forgets to grease the windmill, so the blades don't turn. If the blades don't turn, who wants a windmill?

Are you listening? They will throw us out of here someday. And who is going to support us then?

It works! Go and catch us some fish for lunch, go! Not now! Dr. Hawkins is here! Nico!

Well, my little gypsy, the doctor comes. The leg is well. I don't have another 20 drachma for you to say it's well. My dear, you don't understand. I give the baker carrier kikos the laxative and I charge him 50 drachma.

Other patients, I charge none. Nothing. I'd bring them to prison. Tomorrow I'd break my right leg. Sublime.

Sublime wound. No fever, no blackout, no fairy tales about meeting a shark. I never had a fever. And I never said it was a shark. Oh, my mistake, of course.

You said a swordfish. Swordfish? It was a dolphin. Like this?

Yes, just like this, but only one. My little gypsy, my very dear little gypsy, we're rich! Rich? No, not rich.

Very, very rich. You know where I've been for the past 24 hours. Giving a laxative to the baker Karikikos?

No, no, no. I went over to Delos. I sat over the parchments in the old archive, looking up a legend. Then, I copied the mosaic.

I forgot all about my patients, I didn't sleep, I didn't eat. I'll get you some cheese, don't... Sit down! Eh... This nail, which stuck in your leg, is hundreds and hundreds of years old.

It comes from the hull of an ancient vessel, which according to the legend was carrying art treasures to Delos, but sank in a storm within sight of this island a long time ago. Oh, when Christ was a little boy. Santa Maria.

Then you believe me. It was a ship. Oh, yes. I believe you.

And the trouble is to find someone who will believe us. And that someone's got to be the right someone. My cousin Nikita.

His wife is the niece of Andros Palosti. He owns all the donkeys in Santa Maria. My dear, the right someone is not someone who owns donkeys, but someone who owns money.

Gregory Granitos, my uncle. He has a rich wife who is going to die, eh? Petra, no one in your family is going to be included in this.

Only you and me, my little gypsy. We are going to be rich. Rich!

Good. You say a lot of words, doctor. The one I like best is money. Then go and sell sponges back in Albania.

Go dive in Albania, too. I can, doctor. I am in love. Love? Ha!

You just want to share up this. Why not? I know the spot where I'm from, and I like to be rich.

Simple. Simple? Well, there's an old Greek proverb which says a third of something is better than half of nothing.

Now, the people to go to. They must be rich, preferably foreign and reasonably honest. But only reasonably. The Americans?

Yes! In Athens there are always dozens of them poking around the Acropolis, digging. Now, the one to go to is the man in charge. Good, I go to Athens today. You go to Athens?

Spend your money on wine? Plenty of girls in Athens! And if the police ask you for papers, what happens, huh?

You want him to go? Never mind about that! The police arrest him on the street!

Now children, children, let's not quarrel! Nico! Go and find my shoes! Huh? I can't go to Athens without shoes.

Thank you. Thank you. Hey, take it easy boys. They don't make them like that anymore. Anybody wants me, I'll be in the museum.

BF-WATCH TV 2021 Dr. Calder, Mr. Bowman and the party have been waiting. I'm sorry, but our wall had other ideas. Well, I tried giving them cokes. I didn't know what to do.

Oh, Dill, that's a great hunk of wall. Wait till they bring it up and take a look at it. at it.

Where's what's his name? Mr. Baldwin. Mr. William B. Baldwin.

He's down in the museum right now appraising the fruits of our labors, plus wife and daughter. And remember, he's the treasurer of the foundation. There's always a treasurer. I'll see you. And Dr. Calder.

Huh? Will you please try to remember for your own sake that treasurers have feelings too? Ha!

Hey, you! You said he'd be here before lunch. I had lunch, twice.

And onions both times. I have to go to Eda tonight. I've only one day's chief. I'm sorry, but you saw for yourself how busy he was. But that working man with the whistle is the American boss?

That's right. You're not fooling me, missus. No, he is busy.

And I haven't had lunch, so if you'll excuse me. Oh, I... Nothing personal, Calder, but this museum's an anti-climax after what you see in Rome, Paris, and London. What do you expect?

Every thief and crook in Europe isn't hijacking the great works of Greece to fill the museums of the rest of the world. No need to be violent. I'm on your side, remember?

I'm sorry, I just get mad every time I talk about it. Well, do you want to go on, or want some more questions? Yes. How long do you think I can stay here in Athens? I have to go home.

Now, you want to see me or don't you want to? Huh? Do I? About what? Say they come back later.

I'll show you something. I know you. You found something. A great treasure.

Yeah. Thousands of years old. How did you know?

In 1820, a shepherd from one of the islands found the Venus de Milo. But this is not Venus de Milo. This is another thing. And since then, every year, shepherds, fishermen come to Athens with stories about statues and, well, just stories. So, you don't want to listen?

All right. I'll go to the French, the Italian, the English. They will listen. That is where I go. Rather simple people, the Greeks.

Yeah, so simple they made a thing like this a couple of thousand years ago. Don't stop him. Let him ride.

Let the Jockey Boy ride. But he's riding a nothing. What a folly, wasting the supreme works of the human spirit upon a base and ignorant public.

Fall on your knees before a child and remember, the jockey boy of Artemisian is 2,100 years older than you are and infinitely more sublime. Mr. Eurich American? An irrelevant question and a decidedly impertinent one. You may leave me alone now.

Shoo! You shoo! Oh, there you are. Tired? No, just tired.

Oh, good. Then you can afford to buy me a martini at Zonar's. Uh-oh, the return of the native.

You stay here. I'll handle myself quietly. Look, I'm very sorry, miss, but...

I'm not a shepherd. Oh, Casey, you're not a shepherd. I went to see French.

The man there, he pinched me. The English say they have enough troubles. The Italians say they have enough statues.

All right, what statue? Well, you see this? Um, I'll, um, get the car, and I'll wait.

Uh, the Frenchman do that? No, the nail on the ship with the dolphin, 2,000 years old. So when the English doctor take it out of my skin, he make... Look.

You see? You'd better sit down. It's a drawing of the mosaic on the island of Delos. You from Delos? No, Idra.

And you really saw a statue of a boy on a dolphin in the bottom of the sea? Of course I see it. Big.

I can sell it to you, maybe, if you pay me plenty of money. Oh, I know, but hold on. I don't want to... You don't believe me. Listen.

Today in museum I see another boy. Just like mine, but mine he rides a fish, a dolphin fish. You really saw the boy on a dolphin in the bottom of the sea?

No, on a ship. English doctor call it ancient vessel. This nail is from a vessel.

Look. Let's start again. Let's get it straight.

But I told you to start from here. Hi. Look, what's your name? Fidra.

Oh, where are you staying? What hotel? No hotel. Hotel cost money. Hmm.

Here, take it. It's okay. It's on doxy. It's not okay. It's not on doxy.

If your American company take my dolphin fish out from the sea, 500 drachma, it's not okay. It's not on doxy. Not if you have that boy on the dolphin.

I have. Then you can have anything you wish. What would you like most?

For me plenty of money is enough. But for Nico... And who is Nico?

He's my brother. Lazy Bug. When he grow up he'll go to university. Like you. You know, I think we can make a deal.

Meet me at the Astoria at 7 o'clock. Be there. Yes.

Okay. Oh, and I'll send a cable to Yale and tell them a new freshman by the name of Lazy Bug is coming. Bye.

I'm sorry, it is not permitted to serve an unescorted lady. I am waiting for a man. That is exactly what I mean. No lady can be. But I am hungry.

Please, I cannot serve a lady seated by herself. Oh, him I know. I sit with him. Mr. Parmalee? You see?

Now I'm not alone, I'm with a friend. My bill, please. No, no, stay here. It's not permitted for me to be alone.

I'd like my radio. Huh? That is, of course, unless you intend to hatch it. Oh, I didn't even feel it.

It's a soft radio. Lady, please, I must ask you to go. You go. Dr. Calder, the American, tell him I'm here.

He wants very much what I find. His most important business. Shh. Do I understand that you're having dinner with the illustrious Dr. Calder?

I have dinner now. You want some? I'd love it. Allow me to choose an appropriate beverage.

Ah, now let me see. What would be the best vintage? Goats milk for two.

Yes, sir. He's important man, Dr. Calder, eh? In his pedestrian way. Incorruptible Jim, I call him.

You know him a long time? Our paths have crossed and recrossed. In Dresden, Rotterdam, Florence, wherever the Nazis looted. Raphael's and Rembrandt's even down to a dreary little china pot which belonged to Madame Pompadour there was always Captain Jim Calder of the US Army restoring priceless objects to their rightful owners a typical middle class gesture Well, I'm glad to find out that Jim has finally turned to something more earthy.

Eh? He has a date with a pretty girl instead of a marble bus. No, we have a business deal together. Oh, very enterprising.

May I inquire? inquire what kind of a business deal. We're all going to have plenty of money and Nick will go to university.

Don't tell me you're selling a family treasure to Jim Calder. Oh no, something I found in the sea. The secret?

It's not a secret. I never pry. There's nothing more becoming than a woman with a secret.

Ah, excuse me. There's evidently a phone call for me. Boy.

Yes sir? Just talk. Repeat your name six times. Hm?

Your name, six times. Dimitri Papadopoulos. Dimitri Papadopoulos. Dimitri Papadopoulos. Dimitri Papadopoulos.

Four would be enough. Thank you. Actually, it was a call for you. Doctor called and sent word he'll be delayed two hours. Two hours?

It's so long. Yes, it is. You know, it's very warm here.

You have two hours. We'll take a drive. My car and chauffeur are waiting outside.

You ask me to ride in your chauffeur in the car? With great pleasure. Okay, we go. Good evening, Dimitri.

Thank you. Where's the boat for Hadrian? Gone.

You weren't really thinking of following that girl all the way to the island, were you? Why wasn't I? She made sense. Because this isn't archaeological field work, that's why. It's treasure hunting.

Treasure hunting? You know, Dale, you gave me a great idea. And you talked yourself out of a martini. We're leaving Athens right now. Oh no, sorry, not me.

I like my job. Don't you? I love it. That's why I'm doing it.

See to it that the lady is made comfortable. She is to be allowed complete freedom of the yacht, but under no circumstances is she to be permitted to leave. Yes, sir. I am spending the night ashore. In the morning, Tonino will drive me to Epidaurus.

If I can find what I am looking for there, I shall return tomorrow. If not, I shall go on to the monastery of Meteora. Now remember, the ladies will be kept aboard as our guest.

Is that clear? Yes, sir. I'm sorry you could not find what you were looking for in our library, Mr. Parmalee. It was a shot in the dark.

Perhaps you'll have a better look at Meteora. After what you told me about the roads, I sincerely hope so. I love you, darling.

You or me? Neither, I'm afraid. That's her husband up there. Darn right it is.

I love you too, honey. The finest acoustics the world has ever known. Made nauseating by the cooings of tourists. I heard that. Serves you right for eavesdropping.

Good luck at Meteora, sir. Thank you very much. BF-WATCH TV 2021 We're here, sir. How do I get up there? A lift, sir.

Monastery sent down a lift. Ah! Which button do I press? Hello! Obviously, I pressed the wrong button.

Thank you, brother. Welcome to Meteora. May I ask who carries your insurance? We put our trust in the Almighty.

A very safe company. I hate to impose myself. I can see you're all frightfully busy, so I shall be brief. I am seeking information about an object which I have reason to believe reposes on the ocean floor. What kind of object?

A button? Bone? Wheelbarrow? A ship. Sunk many years ago.

Five hundred years? A thousand? Two thousand?

Two thousand is near enough. Do you know where to look? We have over 3,400 volumes.

My only clue is a 12th century manuscript written by a scholar of Venus. The wonder of heaven's humor. For years, dust gathers on our manuscripts.

And today, before the call to Matins, you are the second man to ask the same question. I beg your pardon? If I can be of help, I will come to the library after Matins. Thank you, brother. I should have made a reservation.

Well, hello, Parmalee. What are you doing here? Run out of Greek quotations?

An impossibility. You of all people should know that. I don't get it. New York, London, Paris...

May I? It doesn't ring. Please, Jim, no open wounds. We've got too much in common.

Not money. But we both love the things that can't buy. For a practical man, Jim, you waste your time on an awful lot of nonsense. I like that about you. And the boy rode downwards into the wine-dark sea.

On the back of the sea god's playmate, a boy of gold upon an iron dolphin. Bronze. I stand corrected. Bronze. Ah, at a place far down upon the Peloponnesus sank our finest treasure.

Peloponnesus. That satisfy you? What satisfies me more, James, finding you here? I loathe having dusty fingers.

Well, I must hurry or I'll miss my basket. I'd hate to see you go to jail, Victor. Sentimentality is still your most endearing weakness, Jim.

Keep it up. Let me remind you of paragraph 9 of the Penal Code of Greece. Any and all objects having historical value cannot, under any circumstances, be removed from Greek territory or territorial waters. They are to be considered the property of the Greek nation. Yes, Jim, I know all about paragraph 9. I'm the reason they wrote it.

I'm sorry. I quite agree. Oh, you, you!

Before you say anything else, let me ask you a question. No! I know those questions!

All tricks and mix-ups! We ride in the car, you ask me if I want a glass of water, I say I go diving in Hydra. We get here to the boat, you ask me if I like fresh air, I say I'm so sunk!

We sit in the cabin. You ask me my mother's name. Do I say Katrina Zibilis Chrysantas?

No! I say I saw a boy on a dolphin. And what happens? You go and I wait here for two days.

Weren't you comfortable? Didn't they take good care of you? Oh, too much care. They kept me here.

No more questions, sir. Good. Now, my question is, if I bring a crew and diving equipment to Idra, can you locate that exact spot again?

Go. Surely you're not going to the police without your shoes. I'm going to Mr. Calder. Do that. It'll be very profitable.

He gave you 500 drachma. He may give you 500 more. Then let me see.

You'll have 1,000 drachma. In dollars, that means... Oh, no, Mr. Mixup.

You can't confuse me anymore. At least do me one favor. It may be chilly. Take your wrap.

Uh-huh. I haven't got a wrap. Come here.

It's Belgian lace from Brussels. Very old and very precious. And now, I want the finest statue in Greece.

The one you found. For that, you will have a string of fishing boats, perhaps even more, and live in Athens to the end of your days. Well, I don't know. I have to talk to Dr. Hawkinson Drift.

I must go to Hydra. What time is it? Give me your hand. So you will always know. It ticks.

It's 4.15. The boat leaves at 5. What boat? The boat to Idra. We're already on our way to Idra. Hi there.

I'm looking for a girl called Phaedra. They said she lived up here. Yes, my sister.

Oh, then you're Lazybug. Hi, Lazybug. Hi, mister.

Your sister back from Athens? We are waiting for her. Oh.

You're an American, sir? Yes, my name's Calder. She paid me a visit in Athens. Please, sir, sit down. Oh, thank you.

Uh, Nico, clean the gentleman's shoes. Oh, no, no, never mind. My dear sir...

Perhaps you'd like a drink? Nico, milk the goat. Oh, no, relax, please. I just came for a little information.

You, sir, and Phaedra, why you do not arrive together? Well, that's what I came here to find out. But you had a nice little chat with our Phaedra. Oh, sure.

How did you get along? Great, great, great. Like a million. Look, I left my diving gear down at the wharf.

Would somebody give me a hand? Yes, Nico. Help the gentleman with his luggage. Oh.

Be seeing you, gentlemen. Seeing you. Did you hear what he said?

A million! This is not the harbor of Hydra. This is Mandrake Bay, not Hydra. Nobody has lived here for ten years. How very fair of you, my dear.

Then we go on. To the harbor itself? With everyone looking on? Not quite. We'll stay where we are.

Safe from prying eyes. I should have been proud to sell Intuidra. Everybody would look at me with big eyes. Nico, Riff, Dr. Hawkins, everybody. My dear savage, try to remember.

This is still a highly extra-legal enterprise. What do you mean, extra? I shall explain.

It's a transaction which, if successfully concluded, results in no imperfect adventure with the law. In short, a buyer's risk. And I'll thank you not to flourish that shawl. But what must I do with it if I cannot wear it?

Hide it. Put it away somewhere out of sight. Now then, go ashore.

Prepare everything softly, quietly. When the marker is in the water, let me know. I have all the latest equipment below.

I'll take it from there. Hey, what about our money? Upon delivery, as in all transactions of this nature. A boat from Athens is due at three.

Means you won't be here before six? Yeah, if she's on it. Please, I'm quite nervous enough. Come on, let's have another.

There isn't a sick man on the entire island. Fedra! Hey! Look, for you. All the way from Athens.

Thank heavens! And you're early. It's only three o'clock. Three? It's exactly...

Never mind, child. Never mind. Two fifty-four and a half. Look, twenty-one jewels.

Where? You can't see them, they're all inside. Why inside?

So nobody can see them. Where you get this from? I got it.

The American? Of course. The doctor said go and find the rich man.

Well, I found the rich man. We know, we know. Everything is clear and perfect.

I even like the way he whistles. You got the wrong man. You're a pair of stupid. Nothing is clear and perfect. But why?

Now we have big question. We go to the yacht at Mandrake Bay. Come. Nico, go home.

Federer, will you take the boat? No, not the boat. We go by the hills. Hey, Mr. American! Shoeshine, mister.

Best shoeshine on the island. Is that right? That's right.

Okay, Nico, you got yourself a deal. Come on up. 41 42 Mr. Parmalee? Yes?

43 You know who is in the island? Who? 44 Calder Missed that one It was just a matter of time.

Jim Calder is no beginner. These are my friends, Dr. Hawkins and Rick. We'll exchange cards later.

Did you tell Calder I was here? Exactly not. If he wants trouble...

I suggest you use that on your fingernails. Well, this orders our plans. As long as Calder is around, no activity on our part.

No marker is to be put in the water. It's my fault. I'm too friendly with the people.

Uncoil, my dear, uncoil. We have all the time in the world. We'll bake in the sun for a while and have a glass of Madeira.

Will you play hostess? No, they don't want to drink. But what am I going to do with Dr. Calder?

He'll want her to die for him. And get the statue. I wonder if you could explain to these stockholders that they'll be quiet now, they can have a bone later.

You'll dive with Calder. What? Dive all over the Aegean Sea, except in one spot. The spot with the boy and the dolphin.

But sir... Dive until he runs out of patience, runs out of ambition, out of money, oxygen and hope. Oh, Mr. Parmalee, you have plenty of noodles, you know.

Thank you. Now we all have wine. Fish eggs? Caviar, to be precise.

You like that? Like many expensive things, and a quiet taste. Here's hoping you acquire it. Soon. Yasu.

Nico! This is Monsieur Sardotogini. Well, welcome to Hydra. Yes, and if I waited for you I would not be in Hydra, I would still be in Athens. Oh now wait a minute, I...

And you lazy bug, go back to the windmill, do not talk with strangers. We're not strangers, we're all college chumps. And look at your face, how dirty it is.

Go home and wash yourself. And you? You are not a trusty man. Absolutely not. I'm not?

Well, as long as you admit it, I will not be angry anymore. All right, I'll admit it, but where do we go from there? You still want to get the statue?

Sure. As a matter of fact, I'm going to hire a boat, a crew, and... I'll hire a boat and a crew. Like that it will be cheaper for you.

How much? Well, 500 dragma. I get fine crew and boat for that.

500? Hmm? What do you think I am, a millionaire? No.

I have a better idea. Can you handle the motor? I'll try.

Good, I handle boom. Boat I get free. Crew we don't need, so we save money. Oh. I wish you'd handle my income tax.

Eh? Huh. Nothing, just forget it.

I'll meet you here at eight o'clock tomorrow and we'll go diving, okay? Hold your breath like I told you and you'll have it made. Yes, but my ears! A couple of more days, you'll get used to it. BF-WATCH TV 2021 I was sure this was the spot.

Well, that's how it goes. It's a big ocean. But it was here. The sun was up there.

And the boat was in straight line with that cliff. And today nothing but sand. Today's...

The days are longer and the sun's in a different position. Oh, yes, yes, longer days. You know, you're smart, Cookies.

Next we try over there. Oh, no, that's all for today. What?

Yeah, we gotta save the air in the tanks. Plant your very tanks. All right.

Then let's save you. Oh. BF-WATCH TV 2021 You like that?

What? We've been diving every day for two weeks. At least we found something. Exactly nothing. Could be we found half the answer to the big question mark.

Now if we can fit it together with... with the other half, maybe... Here, come on.

Don't you want to go on? It's only morning, we had the whole day. No, I got some things to do and I...

Look at them. Line of duty, my boy. I'll see you in the morning. Oh, is it all for today? I'll tell you what I'll do.

You meet me at the taverna, and if you're a real good girl, I'll buy you a drink. Eight o'clock. Eight o'clock, sharp.

Sharp. Well, and doxy? Special shining grease.

How much? For you, special bargain. Free.

Well, we'll sweeten the kitty then. One, two... Caviar, pretty fancy. Not good, reef no like it.

Do you always serve caviar at the windmill? Fedra bring from the yacht. She said it was good for me.

Oh, a yacht? What yacht? Big ship, Mandrake Bay. Mandrake Bay?

Where's Mandrake Bay? Other side of the island. Nobody can see it. Oh.

Well, lazy bug, you'd better scoot home. Your sister might want you. Okay. So long. Tonino, we'll be two for luncheon.

Yes, sir. Well, what a cozy little spot. Smuggler's Cove. Just suits you.

Surprised to see me? To the contrary. I was expecting you.

Huh. No wonder you hijack somebody else's paintings. You're playing a losing game, Calder.

You haven't got a chance. You really want that boy on the dolphin, don't you? Yes.

That's why I'm so annoyed at you. Why bother to stick around? The girl won't help you, and you can't help but find the statue alone.

So? So, when you're dead, lie down. Maybe you're right. As long as we've got the cards on the table. Tell me, if I'm not around, how do you get it out of the Greek waters?

Jim, you're talking to me as if I were a man of honor. I'm not. Lunch? Will you join me? Thanks.

Please. Pepper? Salt?

My, what a pretty picture of Benjamin Franklin. Thumb through. He gets better looking.

It's money. I presume you've heard of money. Don't try to be noble and turn it down. There's nothing as noble as money.

Sorry, but your soup's cold. So is the bottom of your GNC. I love you, I love you, I love you The one who calls it love, the one, the one who hides her heart's longing and every yearning and nostalgia. What is this that they call love?

What is this? What is this? The olive tree, every rain Of our life and end and beginning Never, never did any mouth Then don't break it and don't What is it that they call love?

What is it, what is it that makes you see the purpose? I love Go ahead, dance with them. I'll dance for you. It was good? Sure was.

You know, it's too bad you and I aren't on the same team. But we are on the same team. Are we? Of course we are.

We die well. We love together. We are good together. Sure, when we find sponges, coral, rusty bathtubs, but... No statue.

Don't worry, in the end we will find it. Yes, I'll find it, but... Not with you.

With science. You know, it's a pity, but... Science has a way of spoiling things.

For a lot of people. What science? Well, this afternoon I got a little box that finds metal underwater. You know, by sound. No diving?

Oh, yes. But you only dive once, then you get it. Nico!

Nico! Where is he? Nico, where have you been? It's late for you.

We have to go home. Quick! Why? It is not late.

It is late. I'm sorry. No, that's all right. You take him home, put him to bed, and come on back. I'll be waiting for you.

Dr. Calder knows everything. That we have tricked him. Everything. Tomorrow he starts to go in a boat. But alone.

To find our statue. He will take it away from us. Alone he will never find it.

He has a machine. It listens. An American machine. An underwater sound detector. Our friend Dr. Calder is a very determined man.

You're right, my dear Phaedra. The statue must be moved tonight. Break out all necessary equipment.

Torch, lamp, ropes, oxygen, aqualungs. And send Tonina with them. Yes, sir.

And I'll prepare to bring the statue aboard as soon as they return. You'll do nothing of the kind, not now. Not with call of watching like a hawk. And certainly not in these waters.

It's too risky. When the time is right, we will meet at this island. The one that looks like a whale.

The transfer will take place there. Now listen carefully. You and your partner here will cut the statue loose from the ship's hull and move it into a cave. Or better still, into the grotto nearby. The one beneath the lighthouse.

Here. After we are down, watch the float. You know the signals.

One for rope, two for oxygen. Okay. Riff?

Good morning, did I wake you up? Yes. Well, I couldn't sleep last night, and you didn't come to the taverna.

You didn't show, so I... You are going to die now? So early?

No, not quite yet. It's gonna be kinda lonely out there. I'll miss you. Oh... How do you like that for a laugh?

I do not laugh. I only... Only what? I don't know what.

I'll tell you what. The prettiest girl that ever lived under a windmill. Santa Maria, help me.

I'm mixed up. That's a dream, that's a dream! Hi, Ladybug.

Dr. G, I come with you, please? Sure, there's always room for you, partner. Hop aboard. Is that present for you, Dr. G?

No, not exactly. In a second, we'll take a look at it. You know what this is?

Look, it's a... Hey, you really go for that, don't you? Well, it's yours. For me? For you.

Thank you, Dr. Jean. I can help you, please, Dr. Jean? Yeah. As a matter of fact, you can help an awful lot. When we go in the water, you listen to this gadget.

When it goes tick, tick, tick, you start to yell. Okay, if it makes tick, tick, I yell. Well, what are you going to do? Listen to the fishes?

That's the sound sometimes. Riff, look, Dr. G gave it to me. Ah, it's all right for a small boy. Hey, Doctor?

I never found I needed a bigger knife. But for a strong man, this one is better, no? It all depends. Sometimes it's the other way around. The smaller the man, the bigger the knife.

Dr. G, you look for sponges? Right now I'd settle for one. Here is no good for sponges.

The sister never dives here. Oh, where does the sister dive? Sometimes over there and sometimes over there. And once she dives over there. All good spots, huh?

Not all good. Over there is much coral, deep. Fedra, she cut a leg. It's not good.

All the same, Nico, we go over there, where your sister hurt her leg. Okay. Okay.

Nice big canvas, Victor. Nice big sea, too, wasn't it, Calder? Big, not too big.

Well, well. A lie detector? I see.

Who's your small scientific friend? He's a bright boy, almost as bright as his sister, Phaedra. And you know how bright she is?

They don't come any brighter, Jim. You may as well face it. How about a pick-me-up?

You must need one. Badly. On the yacht?

On the yacht. Go ahead, Jim. She's all yours. If you happen to find the boy in a dolphin, let me know. I'd like to see it myself.

No, I think I'll take a rain check. Promise? I promise. Tonino! Yes, sir?

I want you to take this message to Riff at once. Not the girl. To Riff. Now listen carefully. Sir, what do you want?

You sent for us to run quick. We ran. You smile.

Why? Now, Federer, did you not see the vote for Mr. Pameli? Of course I saw it. But why did he send it to you? He sent it to tell me the plan.

And now, I tell you the plan. Tonight, at the festival, you will dance for Dr. Calder. I dance when my feet tell me to, not when you tell me to. You will dance when I tell you to.

You will dance for Dr. Calder. His eyes will only watch you. He will not watch me.

While you dance, I will go away. I will go to Poros. And I will get a big fast boat tonight. Tonight? Tonight we are going to be rich, my little gypsy, rich.

Stop it. Not tonight. Tomorrow.

Tomorrow in the evening, we will go to the cave, take the statue in the fast boat, and go quick to the island that looks like a well and give the statue to Mr. Family. Then we get money tomorrow. Tomorrow, did you say?

Why not today? You talk too much, you drink too much, and I do not need you. I do not need anybody.

If you two want money, you do what Riff say. What is this money, Riff? Where did you get it?

Faye, do you not trust me? Pomeroy gave him money to get a boat, not for the doctor to get drunk. But why did you hit him?

Fedra is angry with me, huh? But she is still beautiful. And after tomorrow, she will not be angry.

She will be rich. I kiss when I want to kiss. All right.

But remember... Tonight when you dance for color, you dance with your feet and your head, not with your heart. I'm sorry, Riff, if I spoke out of turn.

All right, I forget it, but you watch her, that she dances, that she keeps him there. If we want money tomorrow, you do what I say tonight. BF-WATCH TV Ah, my dedicated and learned friend, Dr. Caldwell.

Won't you join me in a delicious glass of wine? No, thank you, doctor. I was just looking for... Hi. Hi.

I've been waiting for you. Yes? You wanted to talk to me? No, I thought you might dance for me tonight.

You're happy tonight. Oh, why shouldn't I be? Everybody's happy.

Yeah, even Dr. Hawkins. He's very happy. And Riff, I... I wonder where Riff is. Well, Riff's okay, too. What about you?

Of course. I have every reason. I guess you have it then. Stop it. You will lose everything.

Dr. Hawkins? You know me, sir? You're not a stranger in Greece, Dr. Hawkins? A guest, but not a stranger.

A guest? Yes, I suppose I am, really. You've put up with me for a long time, haven't you?

You've put up with me for a long time, haven't you? You've put up with me for a long time, haven't you? You've made me feel rather ashamed.

You've made me feel rather ashamed. Then? Let's drink to ambition, riches, and above all, to trustworthy friends. To trustworthy friends.

Now I will dance. For whom? For whom?

For the dance. The Art of Life The Art of Life When did it leave? Half an hour maybe, I think. Thanks partner.

You uh, you watch your sister dance, she's very good. Worked out well, didn't it? Smile, you damn bitch.

Riff meets Parmalee. You've got a nice smile, Phaedra. You dance well.

Just thought I'd tell you that. But don't ask me to shake your hand, it's too dirty. And your hand, Dr. Calder.

When you dig in the earth, it's never dirty because... because you don't have to dig. You are a famous archaeologic man.

You do not shine shoes or work in the windmill. Or die for sponges and break your... lungs you are an american and if you had founded the statue you would have taken glory yes but not changed nico's life or riffs or dr hawkins life by one piece of bread that's why i'm happy you'll never see the statue in your life dr calder I'm happy for you too, Fed.

For you, for your partners. You got together, the statue's gone, you're set for the rest of your life. Yes, and it is good. And you're a cheat and a thief like any other thief. The only difference is the house you stole from tonight is your own country.

I'm not a thief. I have not stolen. I have found. And what I have found in this is mine, to sell for me.

What about your own people? The people of Greece? They're the losers. They'll never see it. You think the people of Greece, they live their life like you in a museum?

What do you know about Greek people? You are an American. And you're a Greek girl and it's a Greek statue.

And being an American, it's none of my business. That is exactly right, Dr. Calder. Maybe. Maybe I don't know a lot about Greek people.

But I've learned something about the people of this island. Your statue could have meant excitement and pride to them, but no one's gonna see it now, no one! Don't you worry. You'll have everything in the world except friends, neighbors, and a country.

Go away! Go away from this island! And I wish never to see you again!

Oh! Wet melons. Sponges.

Not a bad life after all, is it? The statue! Huh?

It's still here in the cave. You want to see it now? Top one. Tomorrow, we will go tomorrow. In the morning.

It will be time enough. Statue's been down there a long time. I... I wouldn't want to lose it now.

It is safe. It's in a secret cave. In the morning early, we will see it. Together. Promise?

Jim, I don't know what has happened. Listen to me. I didn't do this or know about this. Riff must have come here. He has taken it this morning.

Early, I guess. You think last night I stopped you so that he could take it? No, it's not true.

It couldn't be. You didn't stop me, I stopped myself. Say you know I didn't do this. Say it.

Or I lost everything, Jim. Forget it, I have. I threw away the only thing that mattered for... something that'll never matter.

Don't say that. Here. It's not your fault you believed in your viewpoint.

You stuck with it, but I didn't stick with mine. Jim, I'm sorry for this morning, for now. But I will never be sorry for last night.

So, what will you do? What will I do? What you do is between you and Riff. What I do is between myself and the Greek government. I'll give them the facts, get off of the island and go back and start digging.

Fedra! Fedra! Reef told me you must come quickly.

He has something for you, quickly. When did he send you to me? He has been looking for you. He is in his mobile. Come.

Nico, wait for me. Please, I'll come with you. No, I have to talk to Riff, alone. I'll be back quickly.

And do not come down. Fedra, I have been looking for you. Where have you been? Where is the statue?

Ah, the statue. It will make your eyes want to see it. And why do you ask where is it?

Tell me. Is it here? I want to know.

I show you. Come. And I will tell you why it is here, not in the cave. Tonight, we sail to the island, and afterwards we go far away. I must get Nico.

I must go to the house. to the house. House or to Calder. That is why I take the statue. Oh, I'm sorry, Chief, but I...

Well, I hate to interfere in your work, but this is kind of important. I'm sorry, Dr. Calder, and you are right. It is important. You see, this will be one of our last games together, he and me. Perhaps the last.

Oh, is that so? Pardon me while I catch a slow boat for Athens. But it is thanks to you, Dr. Calder, that it is so. Oh, you know my name.

Glad I accomplished something. Of course I know you. I know also that you have come to warn us about the statue.

that is being taken to Mr. Parmelis' yacht tonight. Huh. You won the jackpot. That's exactly the point. I have not won it yet.

Hmm. Well, that makes two of us. By the way, what do you do?

In a small way, I represent the Greek government. For the past weeks, I've been watching you dive until I'm almost out of breath. Fortunately, Mr. Parmely feels the same way. As a result, we'll get him, and you'll get the statue. Well, I hope you're right.

Dr. Carter, if anything changes our plans, I'll let you know immediately. Will you be here? Yeah, I'll be here. Good. If I let you loose, will you swim and run away?

Oh. Dr. Hawkins! Dr. Hawkins!

Ah, Nico! Pedro, quick! Ha ha, the birds have flown.

I'm afraid she's of the same feather. Flown together. Gone.

No reef has taken her. He has tied her. Tied her?

Tied her where? By the small bay, in the red cake. He can't find the water.

Fed, she show me. The statue. The statue.

And the water. You are angry, but it will not last. In two days, you will be in my country, Albania, and we will be married and rich and happy. In a hurry, but from color?

I'm going to wait a few more seconds if I have to. Apparently I have waited for years. Better receive cargo.

Stand by the way anchor. Mr. Pommely, are you there, sir? Of course I'm here.

Stop talking and hoist your cargo. Where is it? Fares the money.

Mr. Parmely, we have never met before, but if I may say so, I know your work. Thank you. Nevertheless, whoever you are, flattery will get you nowhere.

It is not flattery, mister. I represent the Greek government. In that case...

you may apologize briefly and leave. You are under arrest, Mr. Parmely. Arrest?

This is preposterous. On what charge? Theft of Greek national property. Hi, Victor.

Hi. Is it okay to go up and get that rain check? Go ahead.

It appears to be that kind of night. It's not on the yacht. How do you know? I guess I know Victor Parmely.

Hold it. Cross your fingers. Well, Victor, this must be yours. It's got your monogram on it. Rather incriminating evidence, Mr. Parmelin.

Of what? Attempted theft of Greek national treasure. Before you handcuff me, may I, in the interest of Greek justice, ask one simple question? Go ahead, please.

This treasure I'm to be arrested for stealing, might I be told its size, weight, and color? Its age, shape, and value? Have you seen it? Have you?

Are you? Well, there go your handcuffs. Have you, Mr. Parmely?

I have not. You admit no guilt whatsoever? To the contrary. I am 100% guilty of an unforgivable crime.

A crime of failure. Well, under the circumstances, Dr. Calder, perhaps it would be better for us to wait for Mr. Parmely until the next time. Until the next time, Calder? Well, it's been a long night.

Let's head for home. Let's. Weigh anchor.

Order, sir. Ah, yes, order, sir. Course, southwest by west.

Speed, twelve knots. Destination? Destination?

Monte Carlo. Strange, so empty. They must have gone to the ball game.

Hit your ride at Athens? I'll be back in three minutes. Good. Zee! I can't!

You told me! It is good? It is good. Zazen!

I can't! Good work, Nico! How do you like that little guy?

Went under the boat and cut the ropes and cut them underwater with a pocket knife. You say he's only a statue, and what can a statue achieve? And yet, while I'm gazing at you, my heart tells my head to believe If the boy whom the gods have enchanted should arise from the sea And the wish of my heart could be granted I would wish that you loved only me
