:07:01
Unless you discover it.
:07:03
Or unless someone else
beats you to it.
:07:08
Sir Anthony,
you're a devious man.
:07:12
Yes, I am, aren't I?
:07:15
I've got your contract here...
:07:17
your leave from the university,
power of attorney.
:07:20
My solicitors will handle your affairs
in your absence.
:07:24
- We're underway.
- And have been for some time.
:07:27
We'll be in France in the morning.
:07:29
Why France? That's hardly
the most direct route to Fort Conger.
:07:33
On the contrary.
I think you'll find that it is.
:07:43
Can't you slow him down? You'd think
we were leaving tomorrow morning.
:07:47
- We are.
- What?
:07:50
I said we are.
:07:52
- First thing in the morning.
- Impossible!
:07:56
It's winter. No ship can get
through the ice before spring.
:08:00
- I've made other arrangements.
- What arrangements?
:08:04
If I told you,
you'd think I was mad.
:08:17
Sir Anthony, you are mad.
:08:20
Now you're going to meet another madman.
Captain Brieux!
:08:24
Ah! Monsieur Ross!
:08:27
What a pleasure!
:08:31
He was building this
for a syndicate of Americans,
but he ran through all their money.
:08:35
I heard of the project
and took it over. Ah!
:08:37
- Captain Brieux!
- Good evening, Sir Anthony.
:08:40
- Professor Ivarsson.
- I'm honored, Professor.
:08:42
- It's my pleasure, Captain.
Do you mind if I take a closer look?
- No, no, no. No, please.
:08:45
- I'm proud we shall have you with us
for the ceremony tomorrow.
- Thank you very much.
:08:50
- What ceremony?
- Why, the first flight of my creation.
:08:54
Tomorrow, the whole world will know
of me and my Hyperion.
:08:57
France will rule the air!
:08:59
Whatever you've planned,
cancel it.
