who's made as many trips
to the Mediterranean as I have.

:13:03
Well, that's just it! I mean...
:13:07
have you ever been to, oh,
South America, for instance?

:13:12
As a matter of fact, no.
:13:14
- Pacific Ocean. Ever seen that?
- It's only an ocean.

:13:19
Perhaps you should have waited
and had breakfast with my father.

:13:21
He's the one
who'd have to give the order
to change course for South America.

:13:25
Oh, he would go.
Nothing could stop him...

:13:27
if it were for something
you could really believe in...

:13:29
and not this note in a bottle.
:13:40
Let me ask you something. If you were
a castaway and you had a bottle...

:13:45
wouldn't you put a note in it
and throw it into the sea?

:13:47
Oh, I don't think so. After all,
it's such a small chance, isn't it?

:13:51
Well, what would you do, then?
Just sit there with the empty bottle
until you died or something?

:13:57
All right. I suppose I would try it.
:13:59
But I wouldn't expect someone
to find it inside a shark.

:14:02
Well, if that's where
they did find it...

:14:04
you wouldn't expect them
to just forget about you, would you?

:14:09
You never saw that Frenchman before
in your life...

:14:11
did you, until he showed up
with the bottle.

:14:13
And yet, you believe
every word he says.

:14:16
And no matter what he says, you
and your father refuse to believe him.

:14:21
Suppose I told you that I'd found
a bottle with a note in it.

:14:24
- Would you believe me?
- Well, did you?

:14:26
- Yes.
- And what did it say?

:14:28
It said:
:14:31
''Disregard first message.''
:14:35
Oh, I suppose you think
that's funny, don't you?

:14:37
You've got your father,
so to you this is just a big joke.

:14:40
Now, wait a minute.
I'm not making a joke of it.

:14:43
- I'm just trying to show you.
- Please, do you mind?

:14:45
- I'll make you an offer.
- What kind of an offer?

:14:48
I don't necessarily believe this story
about the shark swallowing the bottle.

:14:52
But I am getting a little fed up
with these infernal trips
to the Mediterranean.
