mayor and see mother well she's anxious to see you she told me to bring you right home regardless of wind regardless

of weather regardless of sea I thought I was almost home when I got off the plane but we've been sailing for nearly two

days now well the Pacific's a pretty big place it's one of the best things about it have we much farther to go this wind

holds we'll be in new May tomorrow morning you know this is such a different world from t

nothing in it seems quite real to me yet you'll get used to it I suppose so but

to be going home to a place I've never seen on a tropical island what's it like n how do you feel

lovely beaches native canoes well I hate to disillusion you but it's a little different than

that well please tell me Well in instead of native canoes you have a harbor full

of Freighters is no mayor so large as that 25,000 people at the last

count I suppose I should have known from Mother's letters but she tells me so little of herself for how she lives she

lives very well well I've got to take all of her off the

wheel you want to S the tiki or would you let me say the tiki come on be my

[Music] guest oh I feel a moving that's the flow

of the water against the rudder it's called weather helps while you got used to it to be

able to steer it by the field you love this ship don't you of course I do look

at her it's a lovely ship that been for your mother I would have lost her how could you lose the

tiki one of my conses defaulted on a cargo about a year ago in newa what do you mean well a maners supposed to take

my shipment refused to pay for it I was stuck with a cargo not a scent no in it

my monthly mortgage payment was overdo on the ti I was counting on the cargo to pay for it oh how awful well it could

have been they were ready to repossess her your mother loan me the money well I know she would always stand by her

friend she hardly knew me at the time it was an act of faith and trust on her part you know it seems strange you know

my mother better than I do to me she's only an image put together from a few photographs and many letters I know

you'll hit it off well together tell me does my mother live in a huge old house

not too huge not too old properly aged the right atmosphere the house of

dignity that's how I imagine mother from her letters a fine woman of dignity

moving through her great house surrounded by

Serv yes are you sure it's the ti very well and thank you so much

[Music]

new bring me my new hat and have the car brought around to the front door right away

[Music]

[Music] watch

[Music]

[Music] that prefer the

police ah I haven't time for you now I must go to the harbor to meet a ship my

daughter's coming in from Paris today Madame this will take only a few minutes of your time I can't even SP you that

I'm late now I have to ask you a few questions about a man named Martin Quirk

Martin clerk yes Madam I know that you are completely respectable but your name

is linked with his In My Memory at the present moment we are seeking this man

what is Martin clerk here in New Mayo we do not know that is why I'm questioning you you paid him a great deal of money

in your Singapore days and I haven't seen him since then as far as Martin quirk's concerned i' see him roasted

over live Co before I do so much as help him across the street now if you'll excuse me du I'm very late Madame if you

will only identify this some other time later oh

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

you're even more lovely than your photograph D thank you you're even

more yeah more human I guess

more like my mother and less like a far off guardian angel thank you darling that's the

nicest thing you could have said hey victory how are you hello Adam

well it's wonderful to see you again and thank you for bringing your home safely with a pleasure I rarely get such a

lovely cargo come along both of you the car's waiting

something wrong no no let's get to the

[Music]

car you will be right down GRE for tea will you Adam tea why of

course you know every time I pull one of those things I expect to hear a fog horn now why tea you serve the best

drinks west of San Francisco as of now you will kindly forget that fact there'll be no lior scene on the

premises oh come on look after all the girls coming from

Paris I suppose the drink tea with their meals the French as we all know have

their faults widows with growing daughters have none Victory we've known each other a little too long for that

sort of thing I remember one night you told me you were Miss flossy mulany of South Chicago my dear Captain Troy I was

never in Chicago well above all I remember you're telling me of a luxurious establishment in Singapore of

which you were the proprietor if such a place existed and I deny it then surely

you must have been much too young to have ever been in it now seriously victorine what about

those things you've been writing manette about her father what about my dear husband as far as I know the less said

about him the better unless you can think of some kind word in his memory you know he was a marvelous

dancer as I remember a miserable Smuggler but I'm surprised the woman of your judgment would have married such a

man I needed a name for my daughter and surely her father's name is the best one for her

if but all those things you wrote her about him I told her what I wanted to know and

that is all oh Adam I know I'm being silly but I

feel I must make a good impression on me n so please bear with

me is about R we Madam she said she'd be down in the moment that will be all

new that girl acts like she's never seen anything but bourbon now Victory before minut comes

down what happened there at the dock nothing special what do you think of me next I

think she's a lovely girl you have every reason to be proud of her now answer my question what do you mean Adam by back

there on the dock just after you met manette you saw something that frightened you half to death you looked like somebody had stuck a knife in your

ribs that's entirely too appropriate he's very good at doing just

that who Martin Clerk's name I know him in Singapore a great many people knew

him including our local police chief why are you afraid of him because he's an evil man and he knows entirely too much

you might be mistaken it might just be a physical resemblance no it was Quirk all

right I could never forget that face I'd know it anywhere and I know he recognized me too why don't you notify

the police no no I can't risk getting involved while Metta is here she's the one that must be

protected Adam would you help me all right but how stay with us for a few

days and look after Minette just see the qup doesn't get near him all right and if he shows up let me

know wouldn't it be better if you told manette about yourself and the past I'm going to be very sure that my past

doesn't ruin her future [Music]

oh isn't that heavy a little what do I smell that's freshly

ground coffee M that's lovely well let's have

some I want to be sure before I take 20 lbs to see

Adam mhm what was my father like he was a fine man so I've heard oh I know that

but what sort of person would you like to be around to know what would he like

well your mother say that

well he was a man who knew the island and loved and he loved the sea too the

feel of his ship well he was a ship captain but he was a good Captain would

your mother have married a bad Captain oh of course not you know sometimes I

think my father must have been a man very much like you well think we must have been quite different after all he

was older you know your mother's been very happy

since you came here and I'm glad I want very much for her to love me I don't

think there's anything you could do to make her stop when was I born well not old enough

to remember why don't you ask your mother I've asked her so many things she never seems to answer me you know I

think perhaps her memory is not very good

pour one for me while you're at it flossy girl

I didn't hear you ring Martin they don't put doorbells on Windows you haven't changed help

yourself to a teacup well I will find it if I do

oh better leave a buzle out definitely not I'm expecting someone soon and you'll be gone when they arrive State

your business looks like You' been all

right not bad for no say your peace and get out of here clerk you don't seem too

happy to see me glasses well I had hoped some public-spirited citizen done away with you by now well they've tried often

enough or at the very least I thought you'd be growing old gracefully and solitary confinement somewhere ah now

we're getting close to my problem I'm not surprised where did you escape from

thewa the last time but they're hot after me they can't touch you here on French

soil man the word's gone around the French and the duts have warrants to

pick me up you've managed to make a lot of enemies but for you that's easy on the line of

business I never yet k*lled a matter for personal reasons congratulations well I wish the police

the best of luck I you can leave the way you came good night Mar not so fast flashy

girl you're going to give me money enough to get out of this jam and to get back home

home Ireland the Dublin that's where I grew up a happy childhood memories

rolling drunken Sailors for Shillings well you're not so far on at

that it'll take uh 2,000 quid to get me there

2,000 I want a third in Franks and the rest in Sterling I've always detested

you Quirk as a mean ignorant cruel gutter snip but until now I had no idea that you're

insane you'll get the money for me all right remember remember the old days in

Singapore all too vividly you did some awfully odd things with currency in them

days a lot of money changed hands illegally you might even say it was

smuggle I never smuggle currency my clients paid me in various kinds of

money I simply exchanged it at the most favorable rate and any fool knows you can't do that at a bank oh flossy

favorable Raider

well mother how do I look fine fine oh I'm sorry I didn't mean to interrupt I didn't know you had company it's rather

a surprise visit this is an old business acquaintance Mr Johnson my daughter

Minette good evening Miss how do you do uh your mother and I was just talking

over old kinds we used to do some business together in Singapore only the

years have been kinder to her well I thought you said we never lived in Singapore it was so long ago I'd

forgotten until Mr Johnson reminded me well then you must have known my father Captain

Renard Oh indeed I did miss oh I knew quite a lot about

him that must be Adam oh well don't keep him waiting darling men hate that I'll get the wraps in the closet and don't

bother about the time I know

[Music]

[Music]

a daughter I never knew too bad she had to leave I could have told her so much

about her dear old P or about you for that matter just leave her out of this

I'll get you the money how' you do it frossy how' you raise the I said I'd get

you the money good only uh the price has gone up I want 5,000

quid 5,000 not more than a third of it in Franks and uh I want it right away I

haven't got that kind of money I'll have to sell my bond try to mortgage this

property getting the pound notes will be awkward well there's AF freas her leaving in 2 days for Ireland with cash

[Music]

all right he was here I admitted but he only showed up last night why do I have

to Pride it out of you I told you if there was anything I could do to let me know and I'd take care of him well how did you

know inette what did she say did she know anything was wrong well she knows

he's an ugly customer and she wonders what he's doing around here making you nervous she won't have to see him again

I'll be rid of him tomorrow how are you going to manage that

£5,000 well that's nearly $115,000 you can't afford to throw your money around like that I know that only too well but

I can't do anything else well you can't start by pain keep your B down the r is right up

there you can't get rid of a blackmailer by paying him off but he has to leave new May of the police or hot aspirin

it's worth the money to get him out of here if he's wanted why not let the police handle it right now you don't

seem to realize realize that Quirk is not a petty Thief who can be eliminated by a phone call if the police do manage

to catch him then he'll yell his head off about things I want to keep quiet all right but how long do you think you

can live behind these lies she doesn't realize what's wrong does she no she

realizes that things aren't right between you two then that's even more reason why I need your help I have to

see certain people about raising money and I'd rather not do it openly will you take me where I need to go

all right what about manette I've already told her we'd be away on business for the afternoon you see I

counted on [Music]

I can't do anything else well you can't start by P keep your voice down a r right up

there you can't get rid of a blackmailer by paying him off but he has to leave new mayor the police or hot as him it's

worth the money to get him out of here if he's wanted why not let the police handle it right now you don't seem to

realize that Quirk is not a petty Thief who can be eliminated by a phone call if the police do manage to catch him and

he'll yell his head off about things I want to keep quiet it all right but how long do you think you can live behind

these lies she doesn't realize what's wrong does she no she realizes that
