1:21:03
Well, l guess that dead ship
brought it to a head.
1:21:06
- Brought what to a head?
- Sir, the men feel, if it's the end coming,
1:21:10
they ought to be spending their last hours
with their wives and families.
1:21:14
Now we respectfully demand, sir,
that you take us back home.
1:21:20
l see. Well, may l remind all of you
that this is a government ship.
1:21:25
Demands made by a crewman or an officer
could be considered mutiny.
1:21:29
Shall l so consider it?
1:21:32
- Well, speak up!
- Captain... As a civilian, may l say a word?
1:21:37
The world may end at any minute now.
1:21:40
At such a time, these men have a right
to choose where to die and with whom.
1:21:44
- Listen...
- Just a minute, Captain.
1:21:47
Mr Alvarez makes a valid point.
1:21:49
l do not believe the world is ending.
1:21:51
lf l did, l'd be heading for home myself.
1:21:54
But in fairness to everyone,
there is some recent news
1:21:57
that may have a bearing on your decision.
1:22:00
lt comes from a Honolulu newspaper,
found on the derelict yacht.
1:22:05
The headline reads ''World Subs Ordered
To Stop Seavíew From Firing Missile.''
1:22:11
So, in addition to all our other problems,
we are now a hunted ship,
1:22:15
and we may never get a chance
to fire the missile.
1:22:18
This in no way alters my plans.
1:22:21
This ship will hold its course.
1:22:23
But, in view of this news
and, uh, your request,
1:22:29
the men who want to go home
may do so, on that yacht.
1:22:32
l think you're fools to try it,
1:22:34
but l'll supply sufficient water and food
to give you a fighting chance.
1:22:39
Admiral, if we're to meet your deadline to
the Marianas, it's madness to split this crew.
1:22:43
- ln view of the threat of mutiny...
- lt's not mutiny yet.
1:22:46
Your challenge was not taken up by the men.
1:22:49
Our trouble stems from the fanatical desire
on the part of some of them to go home.
1:22:54
l'd rather have a small crew
than risk further sabotage.
1:22:58
- Admiral...
- Enough, Captain.
1:22:59
Men, you have 15 minutes
to make your decision.
