Movie Dialogue Sample
It's interesting. Windmills and tulips.
632
00:47:15,358 --> 00:47:17,326
Did you find
everything you...
633
00:47:19,528 --> 00:47:23,499
We were just talking about the tulips.
Don't seem to be any.
634
00:47:23,658 --> 00:47:25,877
I really think
I should be going now.
635
00:47:27,078 --> 00:47:29,126
Thank you very much
for the powder.
636
00:47:29,247 --> 00:47:31,500
Oh, must you really go now?
637
00:47:31,666 --> 00:47:33,259
Yes, I must be going now.
638
00:47:33,376 --> 00:47:35,595
<i>Really.</i>
639
00:47:37,797 --> 00:47:39,549
Good-bye.
640
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:47,666
You've made quite a
day of it, haven't you?
641
00:47:47,692 --> 00:47:48,549
Shh! Listen...
642
00:47:48,683 --> 00:47:51,482
Made monkeys out of ffolliott and me,
broken into my bedroom...
643
00:47:51,602 --> 00:47:53,980
and disgraced me
before a friend of my father's.
644
00:47:54,105 --> 00:47:55,778
What are your plans now?
645
00:47:55,898 --> 00:47:57,662
You might at least have
had your clothes on.
646
00:47:57,688 --> 00:47:58,392
Take it easy.
647
00:47:58,484 --> 00:47:59,586
This is serious business.
648
00:47:59,612 --> 00:48:01,683
I've seen your "serious
business" before.
649
00:48:01,779 --> 00:48:03,622
- What are you doing?
- Escaping.
650
00:48:03,739 --> 00:48:04,358
From what?
651
00:48:04,384 --> 00:48:06,859
A couple fellows in my
room about to kill me.
652
00:48:06,951 --> 00:48:07,752
May I ask who?
653
00:48:07,778 --> 00:48:10,981
Two gentlemen disguised as policemen
waiting to take me for a ride.
654
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,883
Don't you think you've been talking
through your hat long enough?
655
00:48:13,909 --> 00:48:14,609
I'm not!
656
00:48:14,709 --> 00:48:17,383
I've thrown a monkey wrench
into some international dirty business.
657
00:48:17,545 --> 00:48:20,765
I know Van Meer's alive.
That's the reason they want to kill me.
658
00:48:20,881 --> 00:48:23,179
- I can think of others.
- You've got to help me...
659
00:48:23,301 --> 00:48:26,225
not for my sake, but this is
the biggest story in Europe.
660
00:48:26,345 --> 00:48:29,984
Your childish mind is as out of place
in Europe as you are in my bedroom.
661
00:48:30,010 --> 00:48:30,967
<i>(KNOCK AT DOOR)</i>
662
00:48:31,058 --> 00:48:32,685
Get over there.
663
00:48:34,603 --> 00:48:36,856
(LATVIAN)
664
00:48:36,981 --> 00:48:39,575
Ah.
(LATVIAN)
665
00:48:49,535 --> 00:48:51,333
You see what you're doing,
don't you?
666
00:48:51,454 --> 00:48:54,754
This is going straight back to London.
We'll be common gossip by tomorrow.
667
00:48:54,874 --> 00:48:57,969
I don't care for myself,
but my father's engaged in great work.
668
00:48:58,085 --> 00:49:02,215
He's trying to help avert a dreadful war.
This is just the thing to discredit him.
669
00:49:02,340 --> 00:49:05,344
I know you care nothing about our work.
All you're interested in...
670
00:49:05,468 --> 00:49:07,470
is having fun with windmills
and hotel bathrooms.
671
00:49:07,595 --> 00:49:09,347
You don't believe
I'm in trouble.
672
00:49:09,472 --> 00:49:13,852
You'll be in plenty of trouble if you don't
get out. For the last time, please go.
673
00:49:17,938 --> 00:49:21,943
Okay, but I want you to know exactly
what's going to happen when I do go.
674
00:49:22,068 --> 00:49:26,448
<i>I'll go back to my room and try to shake
those fellows off, but I won't succeed.</i>
675
00:49:26,572 --> 00:49:30,076
They'll stick to me like a couple
of tattoo marks until they get me.
676
00:49:30,201 --> 00:49:33,580
They'll stop at nothing. I seem to
know too much, and they're right.
677
00:49:33,704 --> 00:49:36,378
I don't know the ins and outs
of your crackpot movement...
678
00:49:36,499 --> 00:49:39,548
<i>and what's wrong with Europe,
but I do know a story...</i>
679
00:49:39,668 --> 00:49:43,298
and I'll keep after it until either
I get it or it gets me.
680
00:49:43,464 --> 00:49:45,933
Sorry you have those
derogatory opinions of me...
681
00:49:46,050 --> 00:49:48,223
<i>but I guess that can't be helped.</i>
682
00:49:48,344 --> 00:49:51,518
<i>Well, so long.</i>
683
00:49:51,639 --> 00:49:54,313
It's been nice knowing you.
684
00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:57,982
I said "good-bye."
685
00:50:04,693 --> 00:50:05,990
Don't go.
686
00:50:09,698 --> 00:50:12,827
Oh, I guess I could've handled
those fellows all right, with luck.
687
00:50:12,952 --> 00:50:15,205
We mustn't take chances.
We should get some help.
688
00:50:15,329 --> 00:50:17,377
That's what I had
in mind at first.
689
00:50:17,498 --> 00:50:19,466
I'll get Dr. Williamson
and Mr. Van...
690
00:50:19,583 --> 00:50:22,132
Not with me this way.
They might not understand.
691
00:50:22,253 --> 00:50:24,176
They have understood.
692
00:50:26,298 --> 00:50:28,300
<i>(WATER RUNNING)</i>
693
00:50:30,845 --> 00:50:34,6
