:12:00
That's our only contact with
the mainland in case we need help.
:12:04
Don't worry,
I'll come back immediately.
:12:06
Who is this Brian Stanley?
:12:08
He's the most eminent
pathologist in Britain.
:12:11
Whatever this disease is, it's
virulent and could be contagious.
:12:16
We might fly back, so build
a signal fire on Moor Heights.
:12:28
That'll be all for today, gentlemen.
:12:31
I...
:12:32
I do hope some of what
I've been saying has penetrated.
:12:36
From your last papers, I doubt if
you'll progress beyond first aid.
:12:40
Good day.
:12:51
- Oh, Dr. Stanley.
- Yes?
:12:53
- This is Dr. Landers.
- Yes, I heard your telephone message.
:12:56
- How do you do? Won't you sit down?
- Thank you.
:13:00
I practice on Peter's Island.
- Where's that?
:13:03
- Off the East coast of Ireland.
- And what can I do for you?
:13:07
Do you know of any disease
that could dissolve human bone?
:13:12
No, I don't. Why?
:13:15
We've discovered a body
without any trace of bone in it.
:13:19
- No bone? Are you certain?
- Quite certain.
:13:24
That's unbelievable!
:13:26
- Have you heard this before?
- Nothing even remotely like it.
:13:31
I was hoping you could help me.
:13:34
- There was no trace of bone?
- None.
:13:37
If that's true, it's beyond me.
:13:40
It's true.
I performed a complete autopsy.
:13:49
- Have you heard of David West?
- I think so.
:13:51
He's the most qualified man
on bone disease I know.
:13:54
Let's try the Medical Library first,
then we'll go and see David.
:13:59
- If you think he'll help.
- If anyone can, he can.
