00:41William?

00:42William, get the front line.

00:43I'm following.

00:44Jim.

00:45Jim, you all right?

00:46I'll survive.

00:47You all right?

00:48I'll survive.

01:04Burton Glass.

01:05What did he hit you with?

01:07He missed.

01:08He hit the mast with his torch.

01:09Well, it's a lucky thing.

01:10If he got you, you'd be finished.

01:12Who do you think it was?

01:13Maybe the man in the dinghy last night.

01:15What makes you think that?

01:17Well, he had a red signaling torch.

01:19What was he looking for?

01:20A can of bit money.

01:21Might have used his evidence against him.

01:23Well, what now?

01:24You two go and get some sleep.

01:26William and I will stand watch.

01:27Good night, then.

01:28Good night.

01:45Good night.

02:11Good night.

02:40There's no stars out tonight.

02:41What does that mean?

02:42It means there's no stars.

02:43Ignore him.

02:44I am.

02:46Dan, how long will we be with the fishing fleet for?

02:48Shouldn't take more than a couple of days to get the material for the article.

02:52Hey, Sue, how about getting me a banana?

02:54Tell him about it.

02:55What's wrong with you, Mike?

02:56You said Mr. Madden.

02:57Do it yourself.

02:58I thought you'd want to do something sisterly.

03:05What's the matter?

03:08There's a red light flashing over there.

03:16Might be signaling here a type.

03:18Spooky, isn't it?

03:20Sounds like a dinghy.

03:22Certainly didn't want any company.

03:24Well, I'd like some company for dinner.

03:26Who's coming below?

03:34What's that?

03:43Looks like money floating in the water.

03:48See if you can pick it up, or it'll go fast.

04:06Good fishing today.

04:07Looks like money, all right.

04:10It is money.

04:12We're rich.

04:14No identification at all.

04:16Well, that means we can keep it.

04:18But Dad, these are all American hundred dollar bills.

04:20She's right.

04:21Nothing but hundreds.

04:24It's counterfeit.

04:25The ink smears.

04:26Probably passed for the real thing when it was dry, but not after soaking it's had.

04:29It's counterfeit money, all right.

04:31Where do you suppose it came from?

04:33Might have something to do with those boats last night.

04:35They could have dumped it in their rush to get away from us.

04:37What are we going to do now?

04:39Let's get over to the fishing fleet.

04:41That might be where that dinghy was headed.

04:51Captain Scott?

05:18Captain Scott?

05:24Yeah?

05:25I'm Dan Wells.

05:26I'm doing a story on the fleet.

05:27Yeah, I know.

05:28I'd like to talk to you.

05:30Oh, I've got no time for interviews.

05:33This is important.

05:35It is fantasy.

05:37All right, I'll come ashore.

05:38Hey, Dan!

05:44That captain looks more like a pirate.

05:46He's certainly not friendly.

05:55My nephew, Jim.

05:56Good morning.

05:57Now, what do you want?

05:59I wanted to tell you we found something in the water.

06:01Did you drag me up here just to tell...

06:03Do you think that's important?

06:06Well, now you can wait till I'm ready.

06:07Come on, Jim.

06:08Captain?

06:11My gosh!

06:12Where'd you get this money?

06:15We fished it out of the sea earlier this morning.

06:17Out of the sea?

06:18It's counterfeit.

06:19U.S. money.

06:21Oh, wow.

06:23We think it came from a dinghy we saw last night.

06:25What are you building up to, Captain?

06:27It was too far from land, the dinghy.

06:29You still don't make sense.

06:31That dinghy could have come from one of your boats.

06:33Are you crazy?

06:34Why would anyone want to smuggle U.S. counterfeit money out of Australia?

06:37Or maybe into Australia.

06:39People here are not so familiar with the currency.

06:40It's easier to pass.

06:42Mister, you'd better think of another way of getting yourself a story.

06:45What?

06:46I know your type.

06:47All you want is a story, and you just don't care how you get it.

06:50Why would I do such a thing?

06:51Because you're miserable like all writers.

06:53All you want to do is to make your story more interesting.

06:55All you're after is publicity.

06:57I think we'd better forget it.

06:58That's what I intend to do, forget it.

07:00But let me give you a word of advice, Captain.

07:02I can't order you out of these waters, but keep away from me.

07:07Fair enough.

07:08But I intend to call the police in on this.

07:10Mister, you do just that.

07:12Hold on, Jeff.

07:13Suppose he's right.

07:15He's so phony, he smells.

07:18Suppose the crook is part of the fleet.

07:20If Wells calls him on the radio, then our boy will hear it for sure, and he'll be warned.

07:24I don't care what Wells wants.

07:26I want him out of the way.

07:28All right, but let him go to the fleet.

07:30That way the crook will never get wise to the fact that we're onto him.

07:33No, look, I just want him and his boat out of here.

07:35Well, all right, but as long as he's got to stick around till tomorrow,

07:38the best we can do is treat him decently.

07:40You treat him decently if you want to.

07:42As far as I'm concerned, he's just a cheap publicity hound.

07:48Captain Wells!

07:50Captain Wells!

07:58Don't take him seriously.

07:59He's not himself lately.

08:01The fish are not funny.

08:02He's a bit upset.

08:03Yeah?

08:04You all right there, Captain?

08:06Sorry.

08:07I'd like to see him when he is himself.

08:09Should I radio the police?

08:11No, it's too late to make the brief tonight.

08:13We'll take the money out there tomorrow.

08:37William?

08:42William?

08:44Is that you there, William?

08:59William?

09:00Get the spotlight.

09:01Put the spotlight on him.

09:03Is that you all right?

09:04I'll survive.

09:07I'll survive.

09:21Burton Glass.

09:22What did he hit you with?

09:23He missed.

09:24He hit the mast with his torch.

09:26Well, it's a lucky thing.

09:27If he got you, you'd be finished.

09:29Who do you think it was?

09:30Maybe the man in the dinghy last night.

09:32What makes you think that?

09:34Well, he had a red signaling torch.

09:36What are you looking for?

09:37The counterfeit money.

09:38It might be used as evidence against him.

09:40Well, what now?

09:41You two go and get some sleep.

09:42William and I will stand watch.

09:44Good night, then.

09:45Good night.

10:07William?

10:09There he goes again.

10:13He's using oars, so he won't be hurt.

10:15He won't get away this time.

10:36William?

10:37William?

10:38William?

13:55William?

13:56William?

13:57William?

13:58William?

14:00Alright, let's have it.

14:01What's the story?

14:03I don't know anything.

14:05Now look Jim, I am warning you.

14:07I've got every right to be out of my own boat

14:08without some maniac trying to ram me.

14:13I found this on this boat.

14:15It's the one he used to flash red signals with.

14:17He left you to use it again last night,

14:18nearly framed me with it.

14:19Come on, but that's a bit far fetched.

14:22Anybody can have a torch.

14:23How can you tell one torch from another?

14:25Here is the dent you made in it

14:26when you hit the mast over there.

14:28the mouth trapping. I'll beat you just like nothing's left of me. I promise you we're

14:35going to talk. I can't. They'll kill me. Who's they? I asked you who's they?

14:53Mike, get on the radio to the police and get them out here in a helicopter.

14:57Okay, Dad. Ready to talk now. That's just a sample of what you'll get unless you tell

15:04us the whole story. I'll tell you, but I don't know much. Where are you going this morning?

15:08To make a pickup. From whom? I don't know. What do you mean you don't know? It's the

15:15truth. They throw the money over the side of a pleasure boat that passes every two weeks.

15:20Mike, when I go in to pick it up, they've already gone. I've never seen anyone. What's

15:24the signal for? To tell them that I'm there. Oh. They slow down. They throw this water

15:30tight bag over the side. Then I go in and pick it up. Tie the bag under the pier and

15:36someone comes and picks it up. But I don't know who. Why, Jim? Why? Money. Well, you

15:46know how tough things have been for us. Now don't give me that. It's tough for every man

15:50out here and they don't turn crooked. Sorry. What now? You said you were going to a pickup

15:56when I saw you. Yes. After I lost the pickup the other night, I radioed the pleasure boat

16:01to come back in this morning. What time's the due? About now. From which direction?

16:06North-east. Do you wear the stocking cap when you go out to meet the pleasure boat? Yeah.

16:12William, get the dinghy ready. What are you going to do? I'm going out to meet that yacht.

16:18Are you crazy? They'll kill you. I've never seen your nephew. I'll wear his cap. There's

16:23a good chance I'll find something out. Be careful. It's a deadly game you're playing.

16:28You keep on the radio for me.

17:19I want to come aboard and talk to you. Just stay where you are and be quiet. Do you want

17:23to wake everyone? It's been a discovery. What sort of a discovery? What's going on here?

17:30Just a quiet gas line, sir. Nothing to worry about. I thought I told you that I wanted

17:34to know everything that happened on my boat. Do you want to wake her up, sir? And what

17:38is all this? A masquerade party? Captain Dan Wells of the off-sea train. Well, what's

17:45all this about? First of all, who are you, sir? Harris Carter, owner and captain of this

17:50boat. In that case, you're the man I want to talk to. Your boat's being used for illegal

17:53purposes. What? That's right. This man of yours is using your boat for a counterfeit

17:58money operation. It's impossible. I have a bag of counterfeit money right here to prove

18:05it. This man of yours threw it overboard a few minutes ago. I also have his partner on

18:09my yacht. What have you got to say about this? This man is some kind of nut. I was down in

18:14the engine room when I came up to some air. Saw this man tickling, so I stopped the boat.

18:18Sounds very fitting to me. Captain, I want to get to the bottom of all this. Come aboard

18:23and we'll get the police. They're already on their way here in a helicopter. I'd like

18:26to see you aboard the sea train. Fine. I'll be there. Could you handle this man on the

18:30boat, too? Yes, I think so. Bob. Bob, take the wheel and head her over. You, come with

18:37me. Captain Scott, he's agreed to have the entire matter investigated. I just found out

18:48the police can't come by helicopter. They're coming by launch in a couple of hours. What's

18:52all this about? What do you mean, what's all this about? I just brought you out there. You

18:56trying to tell me you didn't speak to me half an hour ago? Mister, I've never seen you before

19:00in me life. Then why did you stop here? Because you weighed me down. Isn't your name Harris

19:06Carter? My name's Peter Modis, and I'd like to get moving, if you don't mind. Just a minute.

19:11Don't you have a crewman named Roper? Roper? Bob. Bob. This is my crewman. That's not the

19:19one I mean. The only one I've got. Bob, you ever seen that man before? Never. Do you mind

19:27if we search your boat? I most certainly do. Never heard of such stupid nonsense in all

19:32me life. Bob, get on the way. Why did he change his company? Nobody knows the helicopter is

19:50coming. He thinks he can get away before the police launch gets here. He's headed for the

19:53open sea. Captain Scott, do you think your men can head him off? You bet they can. We'll

19:59either ram him or turn him back. My boat's a lot tougher than that little tub. OK, radio

20:04your men then. Right. Duke, William, get him on the way. Yes, Captain.

20:34Faster, Roper, faster. He's getting away.

20:50Captain Scott, your men have stopped your men.

21:20Well, if you're out, I'll be in jail. I thought the police would never get here. I'm sorry

21:47you left. You had to be involved. It's not the first time he's been in trouble. Hi. Speaking

21:54of trouble, you owe me a dollar. What for? It's your turn to do the dishes and I did

21:58them. OK. The easiest money I've ever got out of you. For that I'd do the dishes every

22:03night. You would? That's for next month. It's a deal. These are a hundred dollar bills.

22:09That's counterfeit money. Here's some money for you.
