1:17:12
Hold on, everybody!
1:17:45
- What happened?
- Hello, hello!
1:17:50
The Hyperion, and heaven be praised,
our old friend the captain!
1:17:58
My compliments, Captain.
You keep an excellent table.
1:18:01
And you're an excellent shot.
1:18:03
You saved our lives.
Thank you.
1:18:05
An unexpected pleasure.
1:18:07
Since I landed two days ago,
I've been trying to save my own.
1:18:11
But getting out of here...
that's going to be quite a problem.
1:18:14
- Isn't it, Captain?
- I have the solution.
1:18:20
My ship may be battered and torn...
1:18:22
but the mind that conceived it,
that still functions.
1:18:27
As you see,
the ship has lost much gas...
1:18:29
but it retains some, uh, buoyancy?
1:18:32
So if we reduce sufficiently
the weight, then it will rise.
1:18:38
How would you reduce the weight?
1:18:41
Abandon the motors.
1:18:44
The propellers are broken anyway.
The gondola too.
1:18:48
Strip the ship of everything
that weights it down.
1:18:51
What have we then?
A free balloon.
1:18:55
- ByJove!
- At least it would carry us
across the bay.
1:18:58
Yes, and if we can
just reach the pack ice...
