:43:03
Robert, can you
see anything...
:43:06
that looks like an Indian
on horseback coming to our rescue?
:43:11
- Only some birds.
- Only some--
:43:25
Only gone down
half an inch in two days.
:43:27
We'll be here for 10 years
at this rate.
:43:31
Cheer up, milord.
We pay no rent.
:43:33
Mother Nature
sets the table for us.
:43:36
And, fortunately,
we have plenty of water.
:43:40
That's very fortunate,
I must say.
:43:45
- Very fortunate.
- My father will never
trust another Indian.
:43:49
But Thalcave's different.
He said, ''I bring help.''
:43:53
- And he will.
- If he got through.
:43:55
Don't even think such things.
:43:58
All right.
But if I may paraphrase...
:44:00
what a wise young girl
once said to me many years ago:
:44:04
''If you were marooned
in an ombu tree...
:44:06
and you had some logs
and something to tie them into a raft...
:44:08
you wouldn't just sit there
until you died or something, would you?''
:44:12
That's very good.
For a girl, I mean.
:44:15
I suppose most girls are taught
embroidery and things.
:44:18
But Mother died after Robert was born.
And Father, being a sea captain--
:44:22
When we first met,
I had a different impression.
:44:25
Most girls can be rather silly.
Do you know what I mean?
:44:29
- No, I don't.
- Well, you're different.
:44:33
- How different?
- I don't know how to say it.
:44:37
I had it all worked out last night.
Sounds rather silly now, though.
:44:42
- What does?
- Well, you don't expect things
of a girl, certain things...
:44:46
like climbing mountains, going
through floods, making the most of it.
:44:51
You know what I mean?
:44:55
Don't think I do.
:44:57
Well, I want to say that...
