:08:00
Fluffy?
Here, kitty.

[Thunder]
:08:05
Milo James Thatch?
:08:09
Who--who are you?
How did you get in here?
:08:11
I came down the chimney.
Ho, ho, ho.
:08:15
My name is
Helga Sinclair.
:08:17
I'm acting on behalf
of my employer...
:08:19
who has a most intriguing
proposition for you.
:08:23
Are you interested?
:08:25
Your--your--
your employer? Heh.
:08:27
Who is your employer?
:08:28
[Thunder]
:08:40
[Thunder]
:08:45
This way, please.
:08:46
And don't drip
on the Caravaggio.
:08:49
Step lively.
:08:50
Mr. Whitmore does not like
to be kept waiting.
:08:54
You will address him as
"Mr. Whitmore" or "Sir."
:08:56
You will stand unless
asked to be seated.
:08:58
Keep your sentences short
and to the point.
:09:00
Are we clear?
:09:01
[Gulp]
:09:04
And relax.
:09:05
He doesn't bite...often.
:09:16
Grandpa?
:09:17
Finest explorer I ever met.
:09:19
Preston Whitmore.
Pleasure to meet you, Milo.
:09:21
[Crunch]
[Sighs]
:09:23
Join me in a little yoga?
:09:24
Uh, no, no.
Thank you.
:09:26
Did you really
know my grandfather?
:09:28
Oh, yeah. Met old Thaddeus
back in Georgetown.
:09:31
Class of '66.
We stayed close friends...
:09:33
till the end of his days.
:09:34
[Grunting]
Even dragged me along...
:09:36
on some ofhis
danged fool expeditions.
:09:38
Thatch was crazy
as a fruit bat, he was.
:09:40
He spoke ofyou often.
:09:42
Funny. He--he never
mentioned you.
:09:44
Oh, he wouldn't.
:09:45
He knew how much
I liked my privacy.
:09:47
[Grunting]
:09:48
I keep a low profile.
:09:50
Mr. Whitmore, should I be
wondering why I'm here?
:09:52
Look on that table.
:09:55
WHITMORE: Ah!
:09:56
It's for you.
:09:57
It's--it's from my grandfather.
