00:25 What do you want us to do
00:47 Are you gonna give us a hand
00:31 Belle would have signalled
00:41 He only invited us because you're a Detective...
00:32 You son of a bitch
00:09 Your brother's dead
00:43 I saw a young officer on deck the other day
00:42 What more do you want of us
00:12 Oh God not this woman
00:12 You took from me
00:24 For Christ's sake
00:15 How long will we stay afloat
00:24 So what resolution should we make for the new year
00:10 You had a lot of guts lady
00:14 It seems to be piling up in those shallows
00:18 Don't be a smartass
00:11 If you don't come with us
00:12 I want to stay with her a little longer
00:11 You sound like you come from the slum or something
00:15 Give her your shirt
00:33 Can you help me
00:14 I once helped my dad pull in a 600 pound swordfish in Hawaii
00:22 I miss something
00:14 I'm going next
00:07 You see Mr Scott in the water I'm a very skinny lady
00:13 Why don't you shove it
00:09 You think I'm planning on being careless
00:13 I started to believe in your promises
00:52 This is no goddamn engine room
00:14 What'll I tell the others
00:45 I did not suggest full ahead
00:09 We've turned over
00:13 LINDA Will you shut up I'm busy in here
00:32 Maybe we can get to them
00:52 What else do I need
00:12 Oh shoot me Mike For chrissake just shoot me
00:14 It's the first vacation we've had since we got...
00:13 Just because that deck flooded doesn't mean this one...
00:11 Linda honey you all right Hi
00:12 Sparks Yes sir
00:30 She has this illusion
00:31 You Preacher
01:00 God is pretty busy
00:14 This is a bunch of crap We're sinking Nothing will keep...
00:14 That's not true It is true you pompous ass
00:07 Oh Jesus
00:04 Oh my God
00:08 Who's not dying
00:12 C'mon get up this goddamned ramp
00:07 You irresponsible bastard
00:13 Will you get in that bathroom I want to see the propeller...
00:29 Is there nothing more you can do with those stabilizers
00:09 What'll we do goddamn it What'll we do
00:08 It comes from caring
00:15 All you need is a pretty wife
00:11 I can't swim
00:24 We must stay until help arrives
00:08 That preacher was right
00:29 Chief here go ahead
00:19 So that's the cat this ship is named after
00:23 You weren't on the streets that long
00:16 I said don't look down
00:33 Nonnie
00:04 Come here you lousy cop
01:06 What will we drink to
00:12 Will you shut up
00:07 A fat woman like me cannot climb
00:13 What else could you do
00:19 I think what I don't like about you Scott is your...
00:15 John use your church for something more than prayer
00:10 L always thought l was gonna catch it in some tenement by...
00:14 Would you like to dance
00:13 There's nobody alive but us
00:14 Linda you hear me
00:12 Where the hell have you been
00:19 I think what I don't like about you
00:13 Get down on your knees and pray to God for help
00:20 L'll tell you one thing it means
00:12 I rather fancy it
00:46 Can't you see the morning after
00:21 There's something different up there than there is from...
00:14 Lt looks like vitamin E to me
00:19 He really runs the ship
00:36 At first we don't think it's possible
00:24 Your place is with the living
00:06 Brandy rope ax We found these
00:15 We can save ourselves
01:17 TEDDY Please
00:14 I'm going to the engine room
