:06:17
Well?
:06:19
- It's hard to say.
- The truth.
:06:22
I would if I could, but the signs
are neither good nor bad.
:06:25
- We should look again later.
- I must know when, Tupa.
:06:30
Try something else.
The smoke.
:06:35
Yes, Ariki.
:06:37
Matua tane.
:06:48
Your cousin Epe, by
:06:51
My wife Auareipua,
:06:55
Has fallen while training for
the Birdman competition.
:06:56
That's his body lying
:06:57
Before the ahu.
:07:00
You must take his place.
:07:01
Me?
:07:02
It's what the signs command,
:07:05
According to Tupa.
:07:06
But I'm not ready yet.
:07:10
I Know. But there's no one else.
:07:12
They're all gone,
dead, except you.
:07:17
So, Noroinia,
:07:18
The priests of the Miru clan
:07:20
Invite you to compete for
the first egg.
:07:26
The first egg at Orongo
:07:28
When Hotu Matu'a
:07:30
Sends his birds
:07:31
In the spring.
:07:32
Will you swim for me
The Ariki-mau
:07:34
The reigning Birdman?
:07:37
Yes.
:07:42
Tell the other Long Ears
:07:43
There's no use
:07:45
Choosing swimmers,
:07:46
Because Noro will win, making me
:07:48
Birdman for the 20th year.
:07:52
It's finished, Ariki-mau.
:07:54
Will you give your approval?
