- that's porter island down there. that's the half-way mark. ha ha ha. that's the point of no return for mchale. [giggling] [banging] what's that? that sounds like one of our engines is missing. - fire in the number 2 engine, captain. check your parachute. stand by to jump. - jump? we can't jump. that's an island down there. - you know how funny some people are about having strangers drop in uninvited. - we're putting in the fire extinguishers now. if they don't work, there's no other way. - oh, boy. - there they go. keep your fingers crossed. they're working. the fire's going out, we're saved. - you mean we don't have to jump? yippee! - oh, sit down. - oh, i'm sorry. - aah!

[speaking japanese]

there ought to be a hacksaw in that thing. come on. - that's kind of risky, sir. ah-ah-ah-ah-choo! - what's the matter with you? before i'd spend another night on this chain gang with you, i'd risk storming tokyo bay bare-handed. if we ever get out of this, you see a doctor. - i'll stand guard out here. did you find anything? - yes, i found a nitwit at the end of my left arm.

[all talking at once] - well, we got rid of him. - we got rid of him? he was the pilot. what are we going to do now? - well, it's very simple. we just have to fly the thing ourselves. - you don't know what a load that takes off my mind, boy. i didn't know you knew how to fly one of these things. - well, i don't. i was hoping you did. - i can help you a little bit but...

- never mind the box. - [whistles] look at all the dials. - what--what do we do first? - well, there's no harness, i guess you better fasten your seatbelt first. - get your hands off of me. ohh! - ohh! - the whole wheel is broke. maybe--do you want me to turn this on? - what is it? - i think it's a heater. - we don't need a heater. who needs a heater at a time like this? - hey, skip. - huh? - radar blip shows enemy aircraft approaching from the north. - north. - there he is coming in at 11:00. - red alert. battle stations.

- parker, i swear if we don't get out of this alive, i'm going to kill you. - whoa! - holy mackerel. - it looks like that nip has really been nipping. - hey, it looks like he's flying on pure sake. - holy. - [indistinct] you are without a doubt... what button did you push now? - oh, i didn't push anything. that's a boat down there firing at us. hey, it's one of ours. it's the 73. - mchale's trying to kill us. they got one of our engines. - must have been virg. he's a great shot. at a boy, virg, bull's eye. - bull's eye.

- stand by in the flat tail. - all right. - stand by! here they come! - nice catch, skip. - yeah, put in a good word for me to the dodgers. come on. let's get them out of there. hey, ha ha ha. hey, where's the captain? - hi, fellas. - why me?

- ok, christy. head the old boat back to taratupa. - deny that order. this stool pigeon still has a song to sing for admiral rogers. - well, not today, sir. you see, we just received radio word that admiral rogers is going on an inspection tour. and he won't be back for at least 3 weeks. - 3 weeks. - uh-huh. - 3 whole weeks chained to this baboon? - oh, well, now, it won't be so bad, sir, after all, you know, tinker, with a little bit of incentive like forgetting all about that diary, we might be able to cut you loose. - well, it's entirely up to you, sir, but personally i think it's kicks. - kicks. i'll give you kicks. - oh, cut, cut, cut. - ok, christy, take her home! captioning me possible by nbc universal

well, we're home. [men cheering] - oh, listen. that was nice going, mr. parker. boy, is the skip going to be proud of you when he gets back from com-fleet. - well, i wouldn't be too sure about that. wait till he finds out that we stopped off at new caledonia. [whistles] - you did it for a worthy cause, sir-- so that virgil here could stop off and visit an old sick friend. - yeah. well, i saw that old sick friend. she didn't look old or sick to me. - yeah. well, like i said, mr. parker, it was a fast recovery. right, boys? - sure. poor babette was saved by tender loving care. - yeah. virgil's kisses are like penicillin. [men laughing] - yeah. well, i still say i'm not tough enough on you guys. all right, now let's unload these crates, and let's move! that's an order! let's move! - anything you say, sir. why don't you get that one? - oh. yeah. i still say we could be in big trouble, boy, if the skip finds out. - hello, everybody. - maybe you could help me with this end... miss! - oh, no! she stowed away! - babette, what are you doing here?

- well, now, wait a minute. attention! at ease! as you--cease, vous! boy, does she like penicillin. - oh, no! here comes the skipper! boy, are we in trouble. - quick, get back in the box. and that's an order! - bye-bye for now, cheri. - oh, boy. all right, you guys. get busy. act as though nothing's happened. look nonchalant. - hiya, boys. how's it going?

[banging] - she? she? what she? - the pt-73. - oh. oh, that she. oh, no. everything's just fine, skip. we were-- oh, bad case of hiccups today. [whistles] it's hereditary, like baldness. my mother had it. i mean the hiccups. my sister was bald. i mean my father. my father was bald. [female laughter] - that was me, skip. i find mr. parker so amusing. - well, i'm not buying it, boys. come on, chuck. what's in the crate?

i mean anything's in the crate? - come on. come on. come on. get up here. not there! here! - bonjour, monsieur skip! - ha ha ha! - ha ha ha. and those silly boys said you were so ferocious. - oh? ha ha ha! - hey, skip, then you're not mad we got a girl stowaway? - ha ha ha! me mad? ha ha ha! i could have busted every one of you down to a private seaman, you bunch of fouled-up eightballs! - now, wait a minute, skip. - yeah, skip. let us explain. - we had nothing to do with her stowing away. - tell him, babette. - he is right. it was my idea. but i thought it would be fun to be here with virgil and the boys. - fun? do you all realize what would happen

- we're soon going to find out, skip. here he comes now. - jumping torpedoes! virge, get her out of here, fast. - but, monsieur-- - move! and keep her quiet. and get out of here. the rest of you guys, look alive. and if you know any prayers, say them. - now i lay me down to sleep-- - oh, get up out of there. - so, sir, you really think that if the deal with that frenchman bergerac goes through, it could mean a promotion for you? - of course. if the navy can buy molony island from him, we can use it as an additional supply depot, double our capacity, and the whole thing was my idea. - oh, you are brilliant, sir. in fact, i would say you are one of the most brilliant, most intelligent, most outstanding officers that i have ever-- - stop buttering me up. i'm on a low-fat diet. - attention! welcome aboard, captain. - thank you, commander. - sir. - well, parker. i am here on behalf of the united states navy, parker,

- well, my pleasure, sir. - mchale. - yes, sir? - always good to see you, mchale. - oh? - how are things at com-fleet, mchale? any word on the bergerac deal? - oh, not a thing, sir. oh, he's a pretty hard man to deal with, that bergerac. [babette laughs and virgil shouts] - what was that noise below? - uh, uh, well... - wait a minute, sir. it's a rat, a big, ugly one with beady eyes. - that's right, sir. yes, sir. ha ha. he's a giant, sir. we just can't seem to get rid of him. mr. parker, go down there and give virgil a hand. on the double! - right, skip. you can count on me. - that man is a menace! i'd sooner face the rats than a person like that with... this boat is a disgrace. carpenter, make a note. have this boat fumigated. - yes, sir. - better still, have it condemned. let's get out of here. - well, now don't worry about the rats, sir.

you barnacle-brained... chowderheads! do you realize what you've all done? huh? if binghamton ever sees this girl and finds out that you guys stopped off at new caledonia without orders... ha ha! - well, it was all my fault, skip. i was in command. i'm going to turn in my bars. any of you guys seen my bars? - sacre bleu, monsieur skip! why do you worry so? nobody knows babette is here. i not even tell papa. - papa? oh, well, that's just dandy. wait till he finds out! oh, boy! - oh, you worry about everything. let's have fun. virgil promised me a ride on the pt boat. he said babette can steer. - oh, now wait. i never promised, skip. - quiet! and let go of that girl. come here, young lady. now, it's all because of you that we're all in big trouble! - there will be no trouble. my papa is a very important man. all the big admirals know charles bergerac.

if binghamton ever sees... bergerac? your father is the big plantation owner that's negotiating with admiral rogers? - oui. he's the one. so, you see, we have nothing to worry about. - ha ha ha. yeah. we got nothing to worry about. ha ha ha. except whether we want to be shot or hung! what a mess! - yeah. we'll never get out of this. - mom said i should have been a draft dodger. - oh, quiet. will you? let me think. you say your father doesn't know that you're missing? - no. he's away at a meeting with the admiral. so let's have fun. let's go for a ride in the pt boat. - oh, you're going to go for a ride, all right, young lady, right back to new caledonia. ha ha. as soon as i figure out a way to get us there. doggone it. doggone it. i got it. i got it. we'll fake it so that the pt-73 has to put in at dry dock for repairs.

- wait a minute, now, sweetie. we'll even let you steer the pt boat, right, skip? - why, sure, we'll let you steer. while we're out at sea, we'll even let you fire a couple of torpedoes. - oh. ha ha ha! - virgil, you keep your eye on miss bergerac here. the rest of you, come on, boys. we got work to do. virgil keep his eye on... what am i saying? chuck, you keep your eye on the mademoiselle. virgil, i'll keep my eye on you. come on, boys. come on. we've got to make a lot of noise and smoke. - all right. now, you heard the skip. he left me in charge. so i'm your commanding officer. - oh, you will have no trouble from me, monsieur commanding officer. - yeah. - stowaway babette bergerac reporting for action. - for action. well, i suppose we ought to clean up the place a little bit. we can start with some of... um...yeah. skip! hold on.

- ahoy, carpenter. give us a hand, will you? - mchale, what's wrong? - everything's wrong. we've got to go to new caledonia for immediate repairs. where's captain binghamton? - you missed him by 10 minutes. he just left for your island. - our island?! tinker, forget everything! get us out of here! - oh, monsieur commanding officer, do not run away. i am awaiting your orders. - i order you to stop chasing me. - ooh... a machine gun. come on, cheri. let's play "air raid." - now, wait a minute. you can't-- [machine gun firing]

- sounds like machine-gun fire, sir. it's coming from mchale's island. hit the deck, sir. [machine gun firing] - hey, what in the blazes is all that shooting? - no! - it's all clear, sir... i hope. - we've been hit. i'll get you for this, mchale! trying to kill your commanding officer! when i get through with you, you're all going to be hanging from a yardarm! - oh, no. you almost killed captain binghamton! boy, we'd better hide! - do not be afraid, monsieur. i will protect you. - when he sees me here, you're going to see a new kind of punishment--hanging in front of a firing squad. come on. let's get out of here. - let me help you down, captain.

all right, mchale, so you didn't try and shoot me, but somebody on this island did. now, which one of your cutthroat crew is missing? - no one, sir. - well, now we'll see about that. all right, you men, fall in, on the double. - all right. fall in. here we go. fall in right there. [binghamton sneezes] easy does it, captain. - let's see if we're all here. - gruber? - here, sir. - he's here. uh...edwards? - here, sir. - edwards is here. haines? - here, sir. - who else? christopher. - here, sir. - and mr. bell. - yes, sir. - he's here. moss? - here, sir. - mchale. - who? - mchale. - mchale. i know you're here. what's the matter-- parker? here, sir. seems like you're all here. i guess i--where... parker, i'll give you to the count of 3 to get out of that can. 1, 2... - hello, mon capitan.

you're no ensign. get over here, mchale. what are you running here now, a folies bergere? - well... - well, now i can explain, sir. it's all my fault. - you'll have plenty of time to explain at your court-martial. i've really got you this time, mchale-- trying to murder your commanding officer, smuggling french girls onto an american naval base. all right, mademoiselle, you will accompany me. get her out of there. - virgil! - captain, you'd better be careful of the way you treat her because she's the daughter of charles bergerac. he's a very important man to the u.s. navy. - i don't care if he plays ping-pong with bull howze. i want--bergerac? charles armand bergerac? - oui. he is the one. - you've had to go and kidnap the daughter of bergerac? you utter, complete numskull! - but now wait a minute, captain. nobody kidnapped anybody! - that is right. i just stowed away on their boat when they stopped at new caledonia.

oh, that really does it. you and your playboys are under arrest and confined to this island. mchale, you will accompany miss bergerac and myself back to taratupa, where your assistance is going to be invaluable in making out the court-martial papers. - yes, sir. you're all heart, sir. - virgil, are you going to let this little pipsqueak take me away from you? show him your muscles. - babette, take it easy. - let's go, mchale. after you, miss bergerac. ooh! spirited, isn't she? - uh, yes, sir. yeah. - oh, are we in a spot. - this is the worst yet.
