Ya-Sheikh.
:31:04
My name is Dirk.
:31:07
I'm looking for a boat.
:31:11
And when would we be
seeing this boat?

:31:14
About 140 years ago, in 1866.
:31:18
Back when Labbezanga was
one of the greatest ports in Africa.

:31:22
Do you know anything else?
:31:23
We use events to find dates,
not dates to find events.

:31:28
Well, there was a storm.
:31:30
There was a great storm.
:31:32
One that would have raised
the depths of the Niger

:31:35
enough to allow the boat
to get here, yes.

:31:45
It is written here.
:31:48
Six days after the great storm,
:31:51
a dark ship rode without sails
under the banner of a single star.

:31:57
It was driven upriver,
never to return.

:32:02
Bearing...
:32:04
...death.
:32:07
It brought a sickness
from here up to Gao

:32:10
and bore over 300 souls to heaven.
:32:14
It was believed a damnation
from Allah.

:32:18
A ghost ship.
:32:20
A cursed ship.
:32:30
What does that mean?
:32:41
- What?
- That's Arabic, Al.

:32:43
Yeah. Sounds poetic.
What's it mean?

:32:45
"The ship of death."
:32:47
Great. Should we call Sandecker?
:32:49
- No.
- What ship? Whose death?

:32:51
He'd just tell us to come home.
:32:52
- Sounds reasonable.
- Yeah, then I'd get a case of tequila.

:32:55
Boys, we are going upriver to Gao.
:32:57
All right. Rudi, you gonna run
the sonar on the riverbed?
