That's my job, trying the doors.
So it is, my friend, so it is.
And what brings a sailor out on a night like this?
A buried treasure, my friend, a buried treasure.
I think you've had a nip too much.
You better run along now and let the night air sober you up.
Drunk I am not, but that's an idea.
Do you know where Mr. bill Martin might be?
Well, you might try pier five, he's usually down there with his pal and their boat, the skiddoo.
I have some news for him, rare and interesting news.
I've got it, if I could only figure out some way so that they didn't have to sew him up.
= huh?
= it's worth a million dollars.
Condensed stuffing for Christmas turkeys.
Well, they can beer, don't they?
Yeah, they can beer.
Oh, why don't we give this whole business up and get ourselves jobs like other people?
Oh, now stuff, you don't wanna spoil a beautiful record, do you?
Two thirds of my class have been out of work since I left Princeton.
Do you mind if I get a job?
I didn't go to college.
Oh, stuff, you're not losing confidence in the old bill Martin system, are ya?
How can it miss? How can it miss?
Remember all of your other ideas?
They couldn't miss, either.
Sometimes you have to have Patience, you have to wait!
= wait?
Yeah, while we're waiting around, will you tell me how eight bucks is gonna take care of these?
Here, back rent on the store.
Three months' payments on this boat.
There's only one thing to do.
File them with the rest of our bills.
Help, help!
= that must be one of our creditors.
Help!
Stuff, grab a wrench.
I don't know, this thing ain't loaded.
Pull me up, pull me up!
= there he is!
Catch hold!
That a boy.
There you go.
Take it easy.
My leg, my leg, my leg, my leg!
Take it easy. Look, his leg's gone.
I'll fix a tourniquet. Yeah, sure.
There she blows, toward the rim.
Look, it's a wooden leg.
Haul her in, smack her now.
Step lively before she scottles herself.
Hey, go quick before she drifts off to sea.
He'll get it.
=tl'm a hero.
There's your leg.
I would rather lose my good one than that one, eh?
Solid mahogany.
I carve it myself out of an old piano.
Very musical.
Every time someone play the spring song, it gets a twitch of sciatica or rheumatism.
He got it all right. Who got what?
The phantom. = huh?
Hey, you are not in cahoots with this phantom, huh?
Oh, we've been cahoots with a lot of people, but never any phantom, who is he?
The phantom, all phantom look alike to me.
So, a phantom hits you over the head, took all your money and threw your leg into the harbor, huh?
Yeah, he didn't get my money, only got half the map.
T was too smart for him.
They must read a lot of fiction on ship board.
The half he got was in here, but I'm telling where the other half is.
Not till I see that fellow, what's his name, bill Martin.
= bill Martin?
Well, he's got a shop right, oh, well, that's him!
You?
You are bill Martin?
The laddie what own the Morgan island, huh?
Yeah.
Then I'll have big business deal to chew over with you.
That is if you want to cut in on half of the 20 million?
20 million? Do you mean in cash?
In gold and jewels!
20 million, I am telling you.
Hey, we better get him outta here, he's outta his head!
Spanish gold with pieces of eight, and royal jewels, I'm telling you.
And there we was, fishing off of the Bahamas.
We was wrestling on our oars when up pops the cask, right under our bows.
Well, there was nothing for me to do, so I pull him in.
Must have been drifting for 200 years.
200 years, I am telling you.
It was all covered with barnacles.
I rip him open and what do you think I find, eh?
Oh, now don't tell me a mermaid?
No, no, no mermaid, not this time.
Give me my leg.
You'll be surprised.
This map, the half that the phantom did not get.
Now tell me, laddie, do we be partners, huh?
Well, wait a minute, let's take a look at it.
Now, where did he go? You got me.
What you do, let him get away?
I'm sorry, skipper, I did my best.
If I would've had two good legs, I would catch him myself.
= yeah.
= uh-oh.
Are you looking for somebody?
Why, ves.
I'm looking for William Martin.
You mean bill Martin?
Yes. Well, he's...
= he's out of town for a few weeks.
Can I give him a message for you?
No, no, this is something personal.
Thanks just the same. Oh, it's all right.
You, you are not bill Martin?
Yeah, what's the idea?
Hey listen, stuff, how many times do I have to tell you?
When anybody looks for me, I'm not here.
That guy's a bill collector, if I ever saw one.
After we get the 20 million, you won't have no bills bothering you no more, but you should not have let the phantom get away from you.
We might need the other half of that map.
Listen, next time, you chase your own phantoms.
Come on.
$20 million, maps, gold, deserted islands, castles...
Hey, look!
He's come back! = the phantom.
Well, he won't get away this time!
I am coming, laddie!
Hold it there a second, bill!
I got him.
Get a hold of him, bill.
Hold him, laddie.
Hey, this isn't any phantom! = you know this one?
Sure, it's my cousin, George!
George, wake up, wake up!
I'll wake him up.
Thanks for waking him up.
Well, I just...
Do you always give you relatives this kind of a welcome?
George, if I'd known you were coming, I couldn't have done any better.
Yeah, well I'm not exactly glad to see you, either.
This isn't a social call. = no?
Then what do you want? I wanna get dry.
Cousin or no cousin, he was after Morgan's map.
Who, him?
Naw, he doesn't collect maps, he collects etchings.
I hear you haven't been doing so well lately, bill.
= no.
Uh-huh, well, thought I might help you out.
You?
Yeah, tell me, have you been...
Excuse me.
Have you sold the old Morgan island yet?
No, that's about the only thing in grandfather's will that I couldn't hawk.
Well, I thought I might take if off your hands.
That doesn't sound like you, George, come again.
Well, the truth of the matter is, I've been thinking about fixing up the old castle.
You know, hideaway for weekends?
Well, you know, I've sorta got attached to the old place.
I'll give you $20,000 for it.
20 thou... 20...
Well, that does sound reasonable enough, George.
Coming from anybody else, I might consider it.
What's the difference who it comes from??
Tell him you'll take it.
Don't do it, laddie, he's after Morgan's gold.
Well, how about it?
Sorry, George, but I can't handle it.
I'll be back in a few days to see if you've changed your mind.
You're wasting your time. =- we'll see.
You just kicked $20,000 right in the teeth, are you nuts?
You are a man among men, laddie, when do we start?
Start, start where? For the treasure, remember?
You know, I would not be surprised if he was the phantom trying to get there ahead of us.
Maybe you're right, skipper.
I can't understand this sudden interest of cousin George.
20,000 crackers.
Let's get started, the sooner the quicker.
Well, wait a minute, you haven't proved anything yet.
Prove?
Here's this map.
What more do you want, huh?
Look.
How do we know that map is genuine?
Genuine? I will show you.
Well, there is a way to find out.
It's amazing, positively amazing.
= you mean that it's on the level?
On the level?
Oh, you mean authentic.
Oh, what we wanna know, is it real?
No, no, of course it's not authentic.
But it's one of the most skillfully-made imitations I've ever seen.
Imitation, what are you talking about?
I fished that out of the ocean myself!
It was probably some tourist on a boat indulging in a bit of whimsy.
Made the map and tossed it into the ocean.
What he know, that land lubber?
I'm telling you, that is the map of sir Henry Morgan.
That's strange, that's exactly what the other man said.
What other man?
Who he was? Gentlemen, gentlemen.
You overwhelm me, I'm just looking up a reference for you.
= who he was and what do he want?
It was just the man with the other half of the map.
What did he look like? Oh, I couldn't say exactly.
He was very tell and somewhat foreign looking.
What did you tell him? The same thing I told you.
The map is unquestionably a fake.
Fake!
I couldn't convince him of that, either, but then I'm accustomed to that.
So many people come in here with worthless treasure maps.
You mean other people fall for this buried treasure stuff?
Why, literally hundreds.
I got an idea, come on. Where are you going?
To make ourselves a fortune! Here we go again.
J 15 men on a dead man's chest j j yee-ho, yee-ho j j pirates made him walk the plank j j yee-ho and a bottle of rum j everything all set?
Well, I think I got everything all set, let's see.
I got plaster skulls to put under the covers.
Copper cords I found in the desk in store.
Spanish beads and a dozen maps, positively fake.
Ain't he a cutie?
Yeah, he oughta give the customers a thrill.
Customers?
That's a laugh.
The only customers we've got is that one-leg, and he's gone over to the island on the cuff.
= what's the matter?
Are you losing faith in my million-dollar ideas?
I got more faith in your $20,000 cousin.
Wait till the customers get a load of this!
"Treasure hunt.
"Bookkeeper finds fortune, why don't you?
"Finders keepers, don't delay, call today.
"Join our weekend excursion to Morgan's island.
"$50 per person, covers all expenses.
"Buried treasure incorporated, 227 front street."
Bill Martin, general manager.
Well, how do you like it?
Oh, it's all right.
If you wanna get them ghosts installed by Saturday, you better help me get this down to the boat so we can get started.
How do you do?
I just want to inquire if... I'm sorry, he's not here.
Oh, haven't any idea where he might be, have you?
Yes, he went fishing. Oh, that's too bad.
What did you wanna see him about?
Maybe I could tell him when he gets back.
Well, it's confidential government business.
But we'll find him, sorry I troubled you.
Oh, no trouble at all.
Say, sounds like income tax to me.
You never can tell what they're gonna dig up.
I don't like the way he said, "we'll find him."
Come on, make it snappy, I gotta get back here.
Oh, what're we waiting for?
What happened?
Go back to sleep, I'll handle this.
Why don't you look where you're goin', lady?
I thought so, a man driver.
Well, you're not so hot yourself.
Where's your driver's license?
Where's yours?
I don't suppose you're insured?
Certainly not, I never touch the stuff.
Well, who's gonna pay for the damages to my car?
Damages? A little paint scraped off, that's all.
Besides, you were doing 60.
70, perhaps you'd like to see my lawyer?
Now, relax, my man here will take care of everything.
Sure, all we have to do is unhook these fenders, straighten this lamp out.
I think it'll be cheaper if you let me have it fixed.
It just dropped off. Where shall I send the bill?
Now, wait a minute, how do you think it'll be?
Well, if you call your man off right away, listen, I don't wanna buy this heap.
Perhaps you'd like to settle this thing in court?
That's all right with me, lady.
My card.
Rhumba lessons, huh?
Wrong one.
= escorts and...
You certainly get around.
Buried treasure incorporated, 227 front street.
Why, that's right... right here.
Come on in the office, we'll settle everything.
Hey, stuff, get unhooked there and get over to the island.
Right.
Here, hold this, will you?
Somebody give me a hand here, will ya?
Say, that man, that fellow is dead!
I only look dead, go away.
Well, that's mighty trim craft you got here, huh?
You mind if I check your compass?
Look, if I take an asprin, will you go away?
You know, I'm gonna have to speak to that assistant of mine, he's mislaid my checkbook again.
Oh, mister, who do you think you're kidding?
Well, I don't know her name, but she's kinda cute.
Skip it, I'm interested in the damages to my car.
Well, could I mail you a check?
Yes, you could, if you put in writing that you owe me the money.
It's as good as done, uh, where does it go?
Wendy creighton, east end yacht club.
Wendy creighton.
Say, you're the girl that owns the jamboree.
I see you know your yacht registrations.
Well, now look, miss creighton.
With all your dough, you're gonna let a couple of measly
that's why we have our money.
We don't mix friendship with business.
Business.
You know, that puts a new light on the subject.
Why don't you get away, from yachts, motorcars, boring social activities?
And take a trip to Morgan's island, I suppose?
That's right, how'd you guess it?
Me on a phony trip like that?
No, thank you, I've seen everything.
Come in, come in!
Suppose we leave everything to mister, um...
Thurman coldwater's the name, and if you want to leave anything to me, I'll accept it.
= think of it.
Riches, ghosts.
A haunted castle on a deserted island.
How does that sound to you?
Positively boring.
You wouldn't deprive this poor girl of an exciting adventure on Morgan's island?
Listen, my impetuous young friend, nothing ever deprives this young lady of anything she sets her mind to.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm awfully tired.
You know, your high pressure doesn't startle me, either.
It's still no sale.
All right, I'll come clean.
I haven't got the money to pay you now, but I will have, after our first trip.
Why didn't you say that in the first place?
Well, after all, I did get your name and address.
= oh.
But seriously, if you come with us, and you say that it isn't the most thrilling adventure you've ever had, I'll pay you double what I owe you, and if you don't, well, we're even.
Your powers of persuasion are overwhelming.
But it's still gonna cost you $200 more.
Maybe.
All right, now don't forget the boat leaves Saturday at two o'clock, pier five, here are your tickets.
A still small voice tells me I'm crazy, but come, thurman.
In spite of what I've told you about the map, do you still believe there's treasure there?
Why not? You know nothing about your pirate history?
Yes, I'll have to admit that sir Henry Morgan and his men once used the island for a hideaway.
That they did and wherever there is pirates, there is treasure.
You know, I might enjoy that trip.
Well, you only live once.
I'd have to sell my baby Barnes, but after all, it is adventure, isn't it?
Why don't you go in?
= t think I willl
there's something fishy about this.
Why should you wanna go?
After your customers yell for their money back, maybe I can persuade you to sell.
I'm sorry, George, but I'm afraid you'll have to wait until I die before you get a hold of the castle.
I'll still be young enough to enjoy it then, how much?
50 bucks, payable in advance.
How do you do?
You're gonna be with us, I hope it's a nice day for a sail.
And you'll enjoy it, I'm sure, just think of it.
Ghosts, riches, thrills, a haunted castle on the...
Yeah, yeah, I know.
100 bucks.
Yeah, that's right.
All right, stuff, get the bags!
You bet.
Make ready to shove off, men!
Right this way, folks.
Just follow me, please.
Right in here, folks.
Hey, wait a minute, hey, just a minute.
Do you happen to be bill Martin?
See me later, bud, I'm busy.
Just a minute, bub, hold on just a minute.
My name is mcgoon, I'm private investigator for the merchants protective association.
We don't want anything today.
You're guilty of false and misleading advertising.
= huh?
Your ad says that you got ghosts.
Yes and they all got union cards.
= but the merchants protective association don't believe in ghosts.
Skeptics, huh?
I got a little court order here for you to cease and desist.
Well, uh, now wait a minute, sergeant.
When you make a serious accusation like this, you have to have some proof! = huh?
Well, how can you prove that there aren't any ghosts when you haven't been there? = oh.
Well, you're familiar with law, sergeant?
Well, I didn't get this out of a bag of popcorn.
Then you know that you gotta have legal proof.
Oh, yes, yes!
Well, then why don't you take a little trip with us over to the island and see the ghosts for yourself?
Who, me?
Yes, we have a special reduced rate for members of the profession, $75.
= 75 bucks?
You can put it on your expense account.
Do you think they'd let me get away with that?
Certainly, they would, and you'll love it!
Genial company, old world atmosphere, you can pay me later!
Shovin' off!
Well, we're on our way. I ahoy there!
Aboard the skiddoo!
= gone for the weekend.
I got a package for yal! What is it?
I don't know, the guy says to give it to you personally.
He says it's important. Well, toss is over.
All right, stand by, here she comes!
Butter fingers.
= what an outfielder.
Full speed astern!
Young man, where would I find the boat skiddoo?
= just did.
I'm trying to locate William Martin.
I just saw him aboard.
I delivered a package to him, but he never got it.
There it is.
Oh, my.
Well, for a send-off, that wasn't bad.
It sure looks like somebody don't want us to get to that island.
Will the rest of your thrills be that noisy, Mr. Martin?
Oh-ho, lovely idea, this, a lovely idea.
This is all deluxe, the $100 special.
Why didn't we take your yacht?
Say listen, bud.
Mr. coldwater, if you please.
All right, Mr. coldwater.
The trip includes taking my boat, not hers!
It ain't your boat either.
It belongs to the finance company.
Excuse me, Mr. icewater.
Well, is it my fault if somebody puts a magnet in the compass and we've been going in the wrong direction for six hours?
Oh, what are you all complaining about?
This is exciting, it's adventure.
Imagine, lost at sea, on the way to a haunted island, with a ghost castle where one of us might even be murdered.
What if it's you, professor?
It might as well be me, the way I feel.
Must've been somethin' you ate, what'd you eat?
Oh, I only had some lobster and some strawberry ice cream and a couple of beers.
= it couldn't be that.
= it couldn't have been.
Oh.
Captain, let the ship burn, I'm staying right here.
I saw you give that guy a tumble when we came on board.
Now, lay off.
Why don't we settle this thing and get it over with?
Shut up.
All right, but don't say I didn't warn ya.
I said, shut up.
Hey, land on the port bow.
Must be a mirage.
Wherever we are, let's land and thumb a ride.
Well, this is it, folks, get ready to land.
All right, folks, pick up your bag.
I'm not responsible for anything left after 30 days.
Walk, not run, for the nearest castle.
You'll either have to be funny or quieter.
All right, skipper, step forward.
This castle is over 400 years old.
Fine thing, no red taps. So this is Morgan's castle?
Yep, and been deserted for hundreds of years.
Oh, double doors.
I suppose bats fly out when you open them.
Well, they'd better.
Look out, bats!
Bats, my aunt Emma, they were pigeons.
Can somebody tell me why lobsters don't like beer?
Hey, stuff, I thought I told you to get bats?
Oh, where was I gonna get bats?
Besides, them pigeons ain't worked in six months.
All right, folks.
Put down your baggage and make yourselves comfortable.
There is treasure here, I can feel it in my bones.
That is your rheumatism.
We shall see, my friend, we shall see.
This place gives me the heebie-jeebies.
Reminds me of a prison.
Will you forget that line of chatter?
I think you've waited too long already.
Why can't we start now?
Can't make a move until all these people get to sleep.
Rod, don't make a fool of yourself.
This is going to be an unhealthy trip for one of you two.
= that...
Don't be frightened, folks, it's just Morgan's ghost.
He resents our coming here.
Not anymore than I do.
That treasure, she must be in this wall someplace.
= look out!
Are you hurt?
No but look at this harpoon, it could have killed a whale!
That's a cute little plaything.
Well, there's nothing to be excited about, folks.
This thing's probably been set for years.
We must've jogged the mechanism.
First mechanical man, eh? That's right.
In the old days, when the castle was short of defenders, they put a few dozen of these to work.
I'll soon have it nice and cheerful in here.
J 15 men on a dead man... / hey, stuff.
Lay off shootin' those arrows.
You almost killed the skipper.
Arrows, what arrows?
T ain't been shootin' no arrows.
Yeah, I know, but lay off just the same.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Mustn't touch, employees only.
Okay, bluebeard.
Playing games, huh?
I'm sorry, that thing almost hit you.
Boy, that was close.
A ghost, a ghost pushed that statue.
My vibrations tell me.
= that one had muscles.
Yes and I think I know the ghost's name.
Aren't you boys carrying this thing a little too far?
Hey now, stuff, enough.
That's too much, you might've killed her.
Ah, I didn't do this, he must've just fell over.
All right, folks.
I guess that's enough excitement for one night.
If you'll come up, I'll assign you to your rooms.
It was midnight in the old deserted castle.
The dreaded hour when the monster had threatened to strike.
Gloria valgene shivered, even though it was a warm night, and she was curled up before a raging fire.
Hello, yarik.
Find your own bed, will you?
The evening is still young.
I say, you're putting everybody to bed, but in my case, you're extending a special privilege in letting me stay up.
Goodnight.
If that wasn't the wind, don't do it again.
= leave the castle.
Leave the castle.
You're just wasting your time, bill.
Why don't you go to bed?
This castle belongs to the spirits of the past.
Leave before morning.
You do any other dialects?
Death waits for those who dare to spend the night here.
Well, I'm going to bed, bill.
Call me at seven.
This is your last warning.
You must leave here at once.
Bill, you're not scaring me.
If you are wise, you will do what I tell you.
Now look, bill, this scare act was a joke up till now, but coming into a girl's...
You all right?
He stood right there. Who?
A figure in a black cape and a horrible face.
You mean you were scared? = I was scared to death.
= that makes us even.
The repair bill to your car is paid in full.
Did you folks hear somebody scream?
I did the screaming.
Brother, did you know that you have a horrible face?
= huh?
Where'd you get the black cape?
Black cape?
Oh, but it wasn't his face that I saw.
= no?
No, I ain't been near this room tonight.
You haven't?
I've been downstairs fixin', I mean, doin' some work.
Are you still frightened?
I have to admit, you boys did a good job of it.
You've got me frightened so badly, now I don't wanna stay in this room a minute longer.
Well, how would you feel if we fixed a nice cozy bed for ya down by the fire?
Anywhere where I don't have to be alone.
Is this party goin' on all night?
Radios playin' and dames screamin'.
Shut up and sit down.
When do we get started?
I'll tell you when.
Look, a bunch of nitwits.
Nothin' else to do but play games!
Quit yelpin...
What do you wanna do, bring 'em all in here?
I know what I wanna do and I'm gonna do it right now!
I'm leavin'!
You're leavin' when I tell you to leave.
You're gonna do this once too often.
I'm afraid you're doomed to be successful.
Do you really think I have possibilities?
Sure, look at all this.
For a thrill, I'm going to recommend it to all my friends.
Well, the gadget man here really deserves most of the credit.
Do you mind a little criticism?
No, the management appreciates any suggestion to improve the service.
Yeah, yeah, suggest ahead.
Well, number one.
Don't barge into a lady's room without knocking.
Number two, don't tell your guests to leave the castle.
I don't understand that either, what'd you do that for?
= t didn't.
Well, the first thing I heard over the loud speaker in my room was an eerie voice saying, "leave the castle.
"Leave the castle.” Well, that wasn't me, 1 ain't been near that microphone since I let out with that first moan.
Leave the castle.
Leave the castle.
That's it, that's the voice.
See?
That ain't me, is it?
I'm right here, ain't I?
I?
You gonna be gone long?
Hey, stuff, somebody's getting a little playful.
Stay here with Wendy and I'll see if I can find out who it is.
Stay right there, professor.
I'm gonna take a look at some of our guests.
This way, professor.
Ah-ah, wait right there.
I'll tuck you in, professor, but remember, this gonna cost you extra.
= shh.
What ya find out?
Well, everybody's accounted for, except the skipper.
He's not in his room. The skipper?
You don't think he'd be runnin' around, scarin' everybody and tellin' us to leave the castle do you?
Maybe.
You know, stuff, maybe he'd like to look for the treasure all by himself.
Hey, is that another one of your gags?
= no.
Maybe it's the skipper.
Let's go see.
If we just ignored it, it might go away.
= come on.
Spooky, ain't it?
We oughta have some light down here.
Gettin' warmer.
That's what you think.
= where's the boat?
I told you we waited too long.
Must've drifted someplace.
Whatever that noise was, it's gone.
Somebody killed him.
What's the matter, what's the matter, what's goin' on?
Somebody killed rod.
Who done it? I don't know.
We were lookin' around for the boat.
We heards a noise, rod turned, I heard a shot and he folded up, and a guy in a black cape ran into the bushes.
Say, what're you doin' with this gun?
I took from rod. Then you shot him.
No, no, I didn't.
I took a shot at the man in the black cape.
A very likely story, sister, you're comin' along with me.
I ain't talkin' till I see a lawyer.
Don't argue, come on.
Hey, stuff.
What do you make of this?
= t don't know.
What do you figure it is?
Marks made by a peg leg.
The skipper.
Mcgoon would say it's open and shut.
Oh, no, the skipper wouldn't do nothin' like that.
Why not?
Who else has got a peg leg around here?
Besides, we don't know very much about him.
What're we gonna do, turn him over to mcgoon?
Don't you think we better find him first?
= huh?
Oh, yeah.
So, that's it, huh, that's it?
Your name is Grady, Mrs. Grady.
The wife of killer Grady, the bank bandit.
Sure, the whole state was lookin' for him.
Now do you do get the idea?
Mm-hm, yeah.
No.
They were watchin' all the buses and trains, so, we decided to steal a boat and beat it out of the country.
Oh, you were gonna cop the boat, and you were gonna help him to escape.
Don't you know that that's a criminal offense?
He was forcing me to do it! So, you killed him.
= nol!
No, no, no, I didn't, I tell ya, I didn't do it!
Now, wait a minute, wait a minute.
You did admit that you fired this gun, didn't you?
Yes! How many times?
Once, at the man in the black cape who killed rod.
Ah-ah, ah, that's right.
I remember, I remember there were two shots.
Then there oughta be six slugs in this, we'll soon find out.
How do you work this thing?
= like that.
Yeah, I know, but how do you get the slugs out?
You just pull this down and pull this out.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
Six.
Well, sister, you got me there, but I ain't givin' up yet.
Why not? Oh, hello, hello.
What do you mean, why not?
= there's a substantial reward for killer Grady, dead or alive.
Yeah, that's right, well, what about it?
All you have to do is turn in the body and claim the reward. That's right.
Say, what do you expect to get out of this?
Oh, don't worry about me.
This is a treasure hunt, you know.
Well, sister, I'm gonna let you go.
That's awfully sweet of ya, pal.
Yeah, but you just stick around where I can keep my eye on you.
= sure!
I'm not quite convinced about this whole thing yet.
I'll take charge of these.
Oh, I forgot all about ya.
How did I get here, what happened?
You were walking in your sleep.
Oh, dear me.
We didn't want you falling downstairs and getting hurt, so we tied you up.
Seems to me, somebody wants us on this island, but dead.
Oh, don't be silly, stuff.
Somebody just wanted rod out of the way.
= but who?
I found it, mateys, I found it!
= found what?
The key to the buried treasure!
Where did you find it, outside?
No, I find it downstairs in the cellar.
I was tapping on the wall all night, following this half of the map.
Let's see the key. It isn't that kind of a key!
The key is a clue here on the map.
It lead me to the hidden staircase, and then to the torture room.
But I need help now.
Come on, mateys, step lightly.
I'll come with you!
Don't let him out of your sight.
= this is the old torture chamber.
You mean, this is where they used to take care of 'em?
Cozy little den.
Me see.
Here is a picture of that chair.
What does it say? The writing is kind of fine.
"When at length you find the chair, "place a dead man's body there."
= huh?
I'll be right back. Where you are going?
I'm goin' upstairs to get a body.
You, get in that chair. Who, me?
I ain't dead, yet.
Come on, don't be so self-conscious.
Get in the chair, go on. Oh.
All right.
But my heart ain't in it.
You see?
You have to have a real dead body or it don't work.
Are ya hurt?
= nol!
I'm all right.
Look around, there must be a Jewel box down there. = Jewel box?
Jewel box.
Oh, here's somethin', maybe this is it.
Yeah, here.
Give me a hand!
Boy, what a place.
Full of rats and spiders, tarantulas.
Look, a 16th century piggy bank.
Yeah, the fortune, she is not in there, but maybe the key, she is.
See, there's dust here, that's a long time.
That's no key.
That looks more like a check for a short beer.
What do we do now? Well, I don't know.
It is far as I can go with my half of the map.
But if I ever find that fellow who steal that other half, I'm going to break his back.
Here, miss Wendy.
You can prove you have been on a treasure hunt, eh?
Professor!
Wake up!
Wake up!
Oh, where am I?
Excuse me, I must have been walking in my sleep again.
I beg your pardon, miss.
You think you better take him back to bed?
That won't be necessary, I'm not going to sleep anymore.
I'll dress and sit by the fire.
I think it would be a good idea if we all sat by the fire.
Yes, sir, all we need is a half a piece of paper and we've got a fortune.
Oh-oh, that wasn't there before.
= "nine left."
What's that mean?
Wait a minute, weren't there 10 of us here before rod was killed?
That radio room of yours has quite a layout.
Oh, I see you're making yourself at home.
Well, since you've added murder to your little bag of tricks, you won't be using the castle much longer.
Cousin George, your Patience amazes me.
"Four paces to the hidden stairway.
"Then two paces to the wall on the...”
Here we go again.
= the phantom.
That arrow must've gone right through his heart.
Look, on his shoe.
I know him, he's Panama Pete.
Who?
Panama Pete, we were shipmates on the selolina the time I find this treasure map!
= what's this?
That's the other half of the map!
Now I got it, that's the guy that clonked the skipper.
The guy we chased off at the water.
He tried to blow up the boat.
But why would he do that?
Keep us away from here.
The other half of the map proves that, he was probably looking for the treasure when we barged in on him.
Sure, didn't he try to kill me with that arrow contraption the minute I came in here?
Certainly, so that you couldn't use your half.
But why would he try to push the suit of armor over on me?
To scare us all away.
How about rod?
He killed rod and tried to pin the murder on the skipper with that phony peg leg so that he could have the treasure all to himself.
It looks like our little murder-mystery has solved itself.
Wait a minute, what about the guy that killed the phantom?
He's still around.
Oh no, he took another crack at tryin' to kill the skipper and only this time, the mechanism misfired, and the Archer got caught in his own trap.
Well, then the excitement's all over now.
Aye aye, mateys, let's go look for the treasure.
From now on, we are under full sail.
No, thanks, I'll just stay right here and relax.
How about it, bill, we've got a whole map now.
All right, what can we lose?
= look!
Somebody around here has a pretty grim sense of humor.
Who do you suppose is doing this?
= t don't know.
But I think it's about time I did a little checking up.
According to this half of the map, there should be another room.
"Take the coin that you pick up, "and put in the handle slot.” Handle slot.
What kind of talk is those?
You got me.
Handles, slots.
Pump handles, handle with care, pick handles...
Ax heads!
Here's an ax!
There is the coin, you put the coin in there in the slot!
Give me the coin, give me the coin.
You gave the coin to Wendy.
I give the coin to Wendy, just when we are to put our hands on that treasure, I give the coin to...
Take it easy, skipper, 1 know where it is, I'll get it.
Well, get the coin, 1 want to put it in there!
Wendy?
Wendy.
Wendy!
Wendy!
Wendy!
What's the matter, what's the trouble?
Wendy's gone.
This is more excitement than I've had in years!
Wendy, she's gone, and look up there.
Hey, is this somebody's idea of a joke?
It's cousin George, he's been murdered.
Oh, professor.
That's rod's gun.
Poor guy didn't have a chance, wasn't loaded.
Listen, we gotta find Wendy, and we're gonna search this castle till we do.
Mcgoon, take the outside.
Skipper, you take the downstairs and I'll take the upstairs.
If any of us find anything, we'll report back to stuff.
Me?
Yes, you stay here and take care of the professor.
Come on.
Wake up, professor.
Don't be a ninny, wake up.
Here, sit down over here.
Everything's gonna be all right.
Oh, it's terrifying.
= don't do that.
= oh-0h.
Let's build a fire, a tremendous fire.
Then everything will be more cheerful.
That's a good idea, I'll get the wood.
I'll come with ya!
Help!
Help, help!
Help!
Help!
Help me, bill, help me.
All right, professor, the masquerade is over.
Masquerade?
T don't understand.
Oh, yes, you do.
The slippers gave you away.
The slippers?
Real sleepwalkers don't take time to put on slippers.
You're very smart, aren't you?
Not smart enough, or I'd have caught on hours ago.
The slippers were a mistake, I see I overrated myself.
Where's Wendy?
Miss creighton is quite safe, I believe.
= and stuff?
Stuff might've been injured when he left this room.
Left? = yes.
Chasing phantoms, perhaps.
Take me to Wendy.
What's the hurry?
Come on, I'm not fooling!
Poor stupid George was in a hurry.
You killed him, too?
Yes, when he got in my way, with that same unloaded gun of rod's.
= well...
Maybe I overrated myself.
As you say, professor, there's no hurry.
Do you mind telling me what this is all about?
= of course not.
I knew about that treasure for years.
But you said the map was a fake.
It was quite genuine.
What about all these killings?
Unfortunately, I can't claim the reward for the gangster's death, the phantom did that.
I had to kill the phantom, because he was after my treasure.
You can see for yourself.
Are ya hurt?
No.
How'd you get here?
Well, there's a sliding panel by the fireplace.
The professor pulled me through, then took the coin away from me.
We gotta get outta here. Yeah, yeah, go ahead.
Just walk right through one of them walls.
What do you think we've been trying to do?
And we can't get out the way you came in, either.
Well, there must be some way out.
The professor brought you in here.
Can you imagine?
Supposin" they start floodin' this place with water.
I've heard about that in these old castles.
Hey, out there!
Can you hear us in here?
That I can, Matey.
It's the skipper.
Get hold a hold of somethin', break this wall down!
Maybe you can help me.
Hey, lend me your ax.
Psst, right in here, skipper.
Hey, skipper!
Oh, you found the Russian heart, huh?
We gotta go take care of Jasper, come on.
Don't worry about him, he's up by the fire.
Hey, we gotta warn mcgoon and the rest!
Hey, what're you talking about?
Jasper"s the murderer! Jasper's the mu...
What?
Not that way.
This way.
Now, stay right where you are.
Now, captain, throw the map to me.
= nol!
You better throw it to him, he's crazy.
Sure, he might shoot us all.
You amateurs don't know how to read a map.
"Take the coin that you begot, "and put in the handle slot.” Oh, the slot in the ax handle.
Now I know where the coin goes.
Now you shall see my treasure.
= to think that that could've been me.
Oh, here, here, quick, the treasure, the treasure!
Somebody help me pull it out!
Pull!
Hey!
Hey, give me something!
Give me, give me his gun, yeah.
That's it, we found it!
Oh, what a lowdown scurvy trick!
Now what's happened?
= where did those shots come from?
I don't know, I...
Say, what's going on here?
= that's what I'd like to know.
This man took a shot at us as we came ashore.
Well, these guys were prowlin' around and I told 'em to halt and they wouldn't, so I took a pop at 'em.
Well, we're all a little upset.
We did have rather an exciting night.
Say, this guy wants to see you.
Oh, then you are William Martin?
That's right, I'll go peacefully.
Just a moment, young man, I think you're a bit confused.
I represent a committee that wishes to buy this island for a naval defense base.
What?
And we're prepared to make you a sizable offer for your property.
Now I know why cousin George wanted to buy this island.
= how much?
Oh, I'm sure we can come to a satisfactory arrangement.
I'm sure we can, too.
I've had about as much of this island as I can take.
Best night's sleep I've had in years.
What's everybody doing up so early?
Well, I'll tell you, thurman, we've had a little treasure hunt and what a success.
Arlene gets rid of rod and mcgoon gets a reward, stuff, the skipper and I get a check for our island, you get a good night's sleep and...
And you had a thrilling trip.
What have I got to show for it?
Oh, you have more than anybody else.
You have me.
