Herman Watzinger:
[about the ropes that keep united the raft]
It's our only chance. Our only hope now is to try and reinforce the ropes. Tighten up everything again.
Thor Heyerdahl:
Herman... We have built this raft just like Tiki did, and he made it there. And so will we. This is the faith we have.
Herman Watzinger:
Faith? This isn't a religion Thor. This is... insanity.
Thor Heyerdahl:
This is bigger than us.
Herman Watzinger:
Please. Look at the logs. Feel how your raft is moving.
Thor Heyerdahl:
Tiki knew.
Herman Watzinger:
My God!, you understand nothing? There's no one here except you who believes in Tiki!
Thor Heyerdahl:
No?
[makes a pause. He looks everybody]
Thor Heyerdahl:
Then what the hell are you doing here?
