:16:01
- Most unlikely, I'd say.
- Very well, then.

:16:05
If you won't listen, I shall be getting
off at Plymouth with Mary and Robert.

:16:09
- Oh, come, come, come, come.
- I feel very strongly about this,
Father.

:16:12
My dear boy,
if that's the way you feel about it,
let's have a look at the blasted note.

:16:14
- Where is it?
- In the bottle.
- Well, where's the bottle?

:16:17
- The Frenchman has it.
- Confound it, where's the Frenchman?

:16:21
- You had him thrown off
the ship in Glasgow.
- That's a fine thing.

:16:25
When I really want something,
no one takes the slightest notice.

:16:27
- If I happen to drop a casual remark--
- Casual remark?

:16:29
''Throw him off the ship
before I call the police!

:16:32
We ought to hang him
from the yardarm.''

:16:34
Now we're in a deuce of a fix.
That Frenchman might be anywhere by now.

:16:37
Where's Captain Mangles?
Tell Captain Mangles to-- Oh!

:16:41
- Oui, milord?
- Good gracious, the Frenchman!

:16:44
- I thought--
- Oh, but I give you my word,
I was put off the ship.

:16:47
Fortunately, I do not let
such things upset me.

:16:50
The note, milord.
:16:52
Well, this is useless. There's
practically nothing of it left.

:16:55
Ah, but with a little study,
a little intelligence...

:16:59
it is possible
to make out what is said.

:17:01
You will see one thing
w-without question.

:17:03
Their location is given
as 37 degrees...

:17:07
11 minutes, southern latitude.
:17:10
That's no good
without the longitude.

:17:14
Consider first, milord,
on the 37th parallel...

:17:18
there are only a few places
they could be.

:17:22
That's what I've always said.
If Captain Grant's anywhere at all,
he's in Australia.

:17:26
It's only logical, monsieur, if you know
anything about shipping and commerce.

:17:29
Use the head, milord.
:17:31
The note makes reference
to being captured, no?

:17:34
And you can make out the word
''Indian'' or ''Indians.''

:17:37
So where on the 37th parallel
would they be captured by Indians?

:17:42
- Australia, of course!
- Aboriginals, yes. Indians, no.

:17:48
By George! I've got it. South America.
Couldn't be anywhere else.

:17:52
And if he was captured by Indians,
he'd be on the West Coast.

:17:55
It's a matter
of simple logic, monsieur.

:17:57
We'll go there and follow
the 37th parallel over the Andes...
