I'm sorry.
Don't!
It's yourself.
You!
Of course it's myself. Who do you think it was?
I thought the red coat had fallen into the animal trap.
By the look on your face, I'm glad it wasn't.
Come on, help me out of here.
Give me your hand then.
Wait a minute, I can't...
Come on, pull!
I'm quick!
Ah!
Are you hurt?
No, just a...
Oh, he bruised us too, and lots of dirt, but...
Now we're both trapped.
No, we're not.
Even your Dura-Scots lasses must have played piggyback.
What? I don't understand.
Well, you bend down and I climb on top of you and scramble up.
Look, I'll show you.
Bend down here a minute.
You're all right, won't you?
Kiki!
Quick, will you? You're no light weight.
Come on, hurry!
Come on!
Shh! It's all right.
It's soldiers. Redcoats.
But, Cornnut...
No, we're not. They'll soon pass.
Halt!
You don't.
Couldn't catch a couple of wenches, could you?
Call yourself soldiers?
The terror of the Highlands?
You wouldn't frighten a one-armed dairymaid.
I've done enough walking for one day.
Go and fetch my horse. We can hop back with one hour, 300 lashes apiece.
Imbeciles!
Give the lantern to me. I don't want to be left here in the dark.
Right, now, march!
He's staying, dear.
Oh, not again.
Don't the women of your age do anything but cry?
What?
Doesn't matter.
Listen, I've got an idea.
Since our officer has so obligingly parked himself outside our pit,
we'll lure him in to join us.
No!
You'll be able to deal with him. Now, this is what we're going to do.
Mum!
What's that?
Mum!
Move, or I'll blow your brains out.
She will too, so you'd better keep still.
I'll take the sash to his feet, and you take the belt to his wrists.
Gracious!
Do not insult a king's officer.
You can park it.
The next thing is his pocket.
Oh, no!
Look, he's probably got money, and we need it.
You can't interrupt him.
No, you and your kind have robbed our blends.
Look, he's got food.
Chicken and bread. Great!
Now, my gallant officer...
I've done you no harm.
I just knew thanks to you that my father and Jamie weren't hanged.
They're probably rotting in jail in Inverness by now.
I'll be there after, mate.
Here, are you all right?
OK, mate, OK. Take it easy.
Take it easy. It's all right. Sit down.
Here, lady.
You're all right, mate.
You're all right, rat, all this, isn't it?
Oh, King George's worse than this, never fear.
Yeah, well, I'm glad Polly's out of it.
Why do we ever get mixed up in this, Doctor?
I am glad we do. I'm just beginning to enjoy myself.
Down with King George!
You jack of all pranks!
You don't want to feel this, bayonet!
Oh, enjoy yourselves.
So you are for the Prince after all?
No, not really. I just like hearing the echo, that's all.
Let's have a look at his wound, shall we?
Would you not be letting him now?
With care, that'll heal.
Oh, here's you saying you're a doctor. You've not even bled him yet.
What's the yon about? Bloodletting?
Yeah, well, that's stupid. It's the only way of curing the sick.
Well, killing him more like, he's lost enough blood already.
Oh, Isis and Osiris. Is it neat?
Aquarius, Aries, Taurus.
Now what are you mumbling about? Which man?
Gemini and Taurus.
When was the lair born?
In the fifth month.
That's what I thought.
Bloodletting must wait until Taurus is in the ascendant.
So it is willed.
You don't believe all that codswallop, do you?
Of course I do. So does he.
He's never heard of germs.
What was that word?
It's a secret word.
Yeah, germs are all around us. Used by German doctors.
Ah, German. Germs.
Have you got a handkerchief, then?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, that wee lassie's crunchy.
Here, doctor, use mine.
Thank you.
Just a fresh dressing.
Oh, what's this?
A tune.
Prince Charlie's personal standard.
What's he doing with it?
Protecting it. Now put it back, will you, if I sentry saw it.
No, wait. What are you doing?
Tell us if you think he's got to evade him the gallows with this on him.
Well, besides, it's really rather nice and warm.
Let's have a tune to cheer us all up.
Yeah, I didn't think we'd have the last of that.
Tell us, man!
Well, you're a loyal jack of my dance, this is your tune.
Come on, everybody, join in.
All right, I'll say.
All the ones who've rambled once, now we'll see what you have to do.
Dance!
The dance is coming down now.
Yes.
All right.
You.
Blessing heavens. Did you hear that tune?
It's like a rebel's urge.
They were singing it to drive me out of my mind,
as I'm a loyal subject to King George II.
What's that got to do with me?
They know of a plot to murder your generals at Duke of Cumberland.
What?
Come on, Doctor. I knew he wasn't in one of us.
Take me to Celestial Grave. Perhaps we're in time to prevent it.
Why didn't you speak about this before?
Well, it's only just discovered.
That rogue is party to it.
Yeah, do it!
That's all right, Gordon.
I'm not going to hurt you.
Well done, mate.
What do you mean? Why don't you go and join your friend?
Oh, calm down.
Can't you see it was all a fiddle?
Fiddle?
Well, a trick of Ruse to get out of here.
I don't understand you.
Blimey, look. Outside, he's got a chance to get away and rescue us.
What chance do you think he's got paddling around in here?
Nevertheless, I'm still worried.
Don't you worry about him, mate. Worry about us.
See that line? Well, that's where the water level comes up to.
And tonight is not my bath night.
17, 18, 19, 20.
20 guineas. How far do you think it'll get us?
I've never seen so much money in all my days.
We'll both hang for this, you know.
You're very fond of hanging, aren't you, Mr...
Hey, what's your name?
I refuse to tell you.
Oh, we're very brave all of a sudden.
Watch him, Cassidy.
He must have some form of... Aha! Yes.
Algernon Thomas Alfred Finch.
Two Fs.
Lieutenant in the Honourable Colonel Atwood's Rifles.
So, I bet the Colonel would be highly interested to hear
how his Lieutenant for Finch was captured by two girls.
You would not tell.
Oh, wouldn't we? Give me the knife, Cassidy.
What are you going to do?
Here, Algernon Thomas for Finch.
Just after a small souvenir, that's all.
There we are. This piece of hair and this disc will be proof enough
in case the Colonel doesn't believe us.
But why?
We need an ally in the enemy camp.
And I think we've found one.
Right, Algernon?
Is she a blackmail?
Right again.
Come on, Cassidy, let's go before his officer soldiers get back.
Right.
Bye-bye, Algy, dear.
We'll be seeing you in Inverness.
Come on, Cassidy.
Up you go.
All right?
Well, lawyer, my old cattle boat's ready for its livestock.
But lay there!
What in thunder are you laughing at?
It'll be no laughing matter for any of us if we're caught, I can assure you.
That is why we must begin loading the prisoners tonight.
Tonight?
Before the judges are ready to try the rebels,
we'll have them all safely on plantation.
Arr, an Islander will do twice the work of one of your black slaves.
At least twice.
Who asked for your opinion?
Silence, Captain!
I will not have my clerk bullied.
I have enough evidence on you to send you to the gallows ten times over.
And don't you forget it.
Come in!
Well?
Well, the President, sir, insists on seeing you.
Says he has some important information about a plot against the Duke's life, sir.
Why come to me?
Says he won't speak to no one else but you, sir.
Which prisoner is it?
A German doctor, sir.
Ah, interesting.
Bring him in at once.
Sir.
Well, then, while you wait...
Ahem, Perkins.
Now, gentlemen, I suggest you start loading the prisoners at once.
Here is your warrant.
And to avoid comment, you better take them the back way.
Prisoner, sir.
Perkins, trust.
The deed is in.
Arr.
You may go.
Sir.
Now, Doctor, your story.
I hope it is an entertaining one.
It has cost me a silver shilling.
Very well, then, what is the nature of this plot?
There is no plot.
Have a care, Doctor.
You waste my time at your peril.
Would the chance to lay your hands on 15,000 pounds be a waste of your time?
And what would a vagabond like you know of such a sum, pray?
The personal standard of Prince Charles Edward.
Indeed.
Whoever was entrusted with this standard stood closest to the counsels of the prince.
You would agree?
Mm-hm.
He would also know where the prince was most likely to run to.
Which prisoner carried this standard?
That must remain my secret for the time being.
There are ways to force your tongue.
But why employ them since we are both on the same side?
The 30,000 pounds reward for the capture of the prince is surely enough to satisfy both of us.
Ah, you have some precious information as to his whereabouts.
I am on the track of some, but I need a free hand.
Ah!
Don't cry out.
I'm not very expert with these things and it just might go off in your face.
Turn around and put your hands behind you.
You'll pay for this.
Just keep very still.
There.
Now turn around.
Why, great heavens, bend your throat.
What?
It's so swollen.
Does it hurt you?
No, of course not.
Say, ah.
What?
Ah.
Ah?
Ah!
I've never seen a silent lawyer before.
Hm.
Would you mind just waiting here another patient, you understand?
Ah!
Enter.
Oh, pardon, I thought...
You thought what?
The, ah, the city's door.
Your master's a very sick man.
He's gone to lie down.
It's lucky for him I was called in time.
Oh, great heavens, man.
Your eyes.
What?
Your eyes.
Come over here to the light.
Your eyes, man.
You suffer from headaches?
No, I don't.
Oh!
Oh, dear.
No headaches?
Well, what...
Oh!
Oh, dear.
You call me a liar?
No, no, no, no, no.
Me head does ache.
Of course it does.
What do you expect?
Your eyes.
Me eyes?
What did you find?
Print blindness.
You read too much.
Well, it is true.
I'm a clerk.
What must I do?
You must rest them for at least an hour.
But I...
That is my prescription.
Ignore it at your peril.
Now, lie down on the table.
That's right.
And put this over your eyes.
Your eyes.
Put this over your eyes and rest them for at least an hour.
What's that knocking?
Knocking?
Yes, now, knocking.
It's in your mind.
In your eyes.
Now, rest your eyes and the knocking will grow fainter and fainter and fainter.
One hour.
Remember.
One hour, doctor.
One hour.
Sarah!
Sergeant!
Where are you, Sarah?
Come, go and see.
I'm down here, Mac.
Oh.
There you are.
What took you so long, you jacking apes?
Well, we made the best time we could in the dark, sir, but it's hard to see our way, isn't it?
Well, don't just stand there.
Get me out of this infernal hole.
All right, you two, I'll handle this.
You've got to stand guard by the nethenazoles.
Oh, come on, man.
Help me out.
Well, it's, uh, it's very deep, sir.
Get me out at once or I'll order you 500 lashes apiece.
Oh, don't misunderstand me, sir.
I'm willing enough to try, but you see, uh, we're not used to pulling officers out of pits.
Come on, man.
What are you jabbering about?
Well, I mean to say, sir, you see, uh, officers don't usually fall in the pits.
You'll regret this, Sergeant.
Ah, it isn't me, sir.
You see, it's the men I'm thinking about.
I mean, they're not used to it like.
I mean, uh, they're going to be very slow, sir, and they're going to be very dry.
I see.
Well, here's some money to drink with, and I hope it chokes you.
Step in.
You'll, uh, get it when we return to Inverness.
For the last time, man, get me out of here.
Get me out of here.
We've started shipping them across.
What in thunder?
I'm resting me eyes.
Damn your eyes.
Where's your master?
Well, the doctor said he must rest too.
Rest?
What have we here, then?
A pretty sight you look like.
And what might this be a cure for, a synvitis, Dad?
Deceive me, you fool.
You let him escape.
Well, I didn't know. He hit me, eh?
One more such folly, it will need no further cures.
The Prince is standard.
Aye, he used that to trick me with.
But he won't get far. Perkins, summon the watch.
And you, get those prisoners aboard before the soldiers get here.
Loni, where are you?
Oh, Richter, oh, Richter.
Loni!
I missed you, noise. I'm coming.
There must be some trouble around here somewhere.
That's two of them and room for one more.
M, for you, come on.
He's done four.
The next one, you swine.
You, you'll do. Out with the others.
All three of you, outside.
Move!
What's in there, you swine? What's in there?
Stop moving! Stop moving!
Well, look lively.
Watch your feet, you swine.
Out of the way, you.
Right, open up.
Come on, fool.
Get out. Stop lively.
Where's your friend?
I don't know, I don't know.
I don't know.
I cussed him too, the well out of it.
But I mean the doctor.
I don't know.
He'll be here, don't worry.
Yeah, in a wee moment.
It'll just be too late.
Silence, you two!
Unless he wants a taste of this.
Right.
You're all going down there.
Right, Pater, here he goes.
Right, Mr. Trask, that's the lot.
Where are you taking us?
You'll find out soon enough.
You've not a mind to drown us, have you?
That wouldn't pollute the earth with it.
Get in the boat.
Quick, we might have right for it and swim.
I can't swim.
Get in the boat.
Quick, up!
All right, come on, let's move.
Officer.
I'll go away, will you?
I've brought a wee drop of broth for Mr. Trask.
Oh, he's not here.
I mean, he's gone.
He's not here.
Well, you have it, officer.
It's a pity to waste it.
Nice hot broth.
Oh, all right.
I'll have it.
It's a cold night outside, anyway.
What are you looking at?
He's only up here for two.
Go on, get back to your post.
Move!
So lay there, you swabs!
In case you're thinking of escaping, there's Jemus for you.
He didn't find you at an happy ship.
So he finds him another berth where he'll be happy.
Once aboard the Annabel, that's the only way you'll get off her.
Straight downwards.
Straight down.
