Captain Francesca Cook
Joseph Sullivan, I was sure you'd be dead by bow.
It's good to see you too, Franky.
Capt. Francesca Cook
This had better be important or one of us is in trouble.
It's important.
Capt. Francesca Cook
What is that? [watching Polly trying to climb off the wing of the plane]
You be nice. Commander Cook, meet Polly Perkins.
Capt. Francesca Cook
Polly Perkins, I've heard so much about you. It's a pleasure to finally meet the competition. It's been a long time since Nanjing, hasn't it, Joseph?
Capt. Francesca Cook
Reconnaissance located an island three kilometers northeast of our current position. It is not, however, on any of our charts.
That has to be him.
Capt. Francesca Cook
That has to be who? What have you gotten me into this time, Joseph?
Nothing you can't handle, Franky. [Polly trips and slams her hand into some controls, causing sirens to go off] Polly, try not to touch anything.
Capt. Francesca Cook
You're all clear. Good luck, Joe.
Thank you, Franky. We'll take it from here.
She's some kind of girl.
Yes, I know. I'm taking us up.
[Joe and Polly are preparing to take off along with Franky. Polly looks annoyed with Joe]
What?
'Nanjing'?
Captain Francesca Cook
[over the radio]
Keep your nose up, Joseph. You always were bad at the short takeoff.
Keep up, Franky. I don't wanna have to come back for you.
I thought you takeoff was just fine.
Thank you, Polly.
So you heard that, did you?
British Officer
Commander, we've lost power to the forward rotors. We're losing altitude.
Captain Francesca Cook
All engines, reverse full. Get us out of here.
Francesca, you've got to get me on that island.
Captain Francesca Cook
I'm not about to risk the lives of my men for one of your silly antics.
He's got Dex.
Captain Francesca Cook
[Franky is shocked]
Rescind order! You´ll never make it from the air. We have to find you another way.
There's a tidal flow on the eastern face of the island.
Captain Francesca Cook
It's too deep. We're not rated past 100 meters. But... this area here, there's an undersea inlet at the southern tip and it runs beneath the entire length of the island. That is your only way in. Everything else is sheer rock to the edge of the water.
What about those machines? How do we get past them?
Captain Francesca Cook
Leave that to me. Alert the amphibious squadron!
