[dancing with Cora]

I'm gonna dance with her now, all right? [looking at Rose] Come on.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

What?

Come on! Come with me.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Jack! Jack, wait! I can't do this.

We're gonna have to get a little bit closer. Like this. [looks at Cora] You're still my best girl, Cora.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

I don't know this dance!

Neither do I! Just go with it! And don't think!

[referring to Cal]

Do you love him?

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Pardon me?

Do you love him?

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Well, you're being very rude. You shouldn't be asking me this.

Well, it's a simple question. Do you love the guy or not?

Rose DeWitt Bukater

This is not a suitable conversation.

Why can't you just answer the question?

Rose DeWitt Bukater

This is absurd. I don't know you and you don't know me and we are not having this conversation at all. You are rude and uncouth, and presumptuous, and I am leaving now. [starts shaking Jack's hand] Jack... Mister Dawson, it's been a pleasure. I've sought you out to thank you, and now I have thanked you.

And you've insulted me.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Well, you deserved it.

Right.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Right. [still shakes Jack's hand]

I thought you were leaving.

Rose DeWitt Bukater
[turns to leave]

I am. You are so annoying.

Ha, ha.

Rose DeWitt Bukater
[turns back to Jack]

Wait, I don't have to leave, this is my part of the ship. You leave.

Oh ho, ho, well well well, now who's being rude?

Wait! We're passengers! We're passengers! [hands the tickets to Officer Moody]

Have you been through the inspection queue?

[lying]

Of course! Anyway, we don't have any lice, we're Americans. Both of us.

[nods]

Right. Come aboard.

[Jack and Fabrizio board the ship]

We're the luckiest sons of bitches in the world, you know that?

Where to, miss.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

To the stars. [they are inside the car]

Are you nervous?

Rose DeWitt Bukater

No. Put your hands on me, Jack.

[narrating an animation of the Titanic sinking]

Okay here we go; she hits the ‘berg on the starboard side, right? She kinda bumps along punching holes like Morse code ‘deet-deet-deet’, along the side, below the water line. Then the forward compartments start to flood. Now as the water level rises it spills over the watertight bulk heads which unfortunately don’t go any higher than E Deck, so now as the bow goes down, the stern rises up. Slow at first then faster and faster until finally she’s got her whole ass is sticking up in the air, and that’s a big ass, we’re talking 20-30,000 TONS. And the hull’s not designed to deal with that pressure so what happens? “KEEG” she splits. Right down to the keel and the stern falls back level. Then as the bow sinks it pulls the stern vertical then finally detaches. Now the stern section kinda bobs there like a cork for a couple of minutes, floods, then finally goes under about 2:20 A.M., 2 hours and 40 minutes after the collision. The bow section planes away landing about half a mile away going 20-30 knots when it hits the ocean floor, “BOOM”. Pretty cool, huh?

Come on, sister, you heard the man, into the boat.

Any room for a gentleman, gentlemen?

Henry T. Wilde

Only women at this time, sir.

Will the lifeboats be seated according to class. I hope they're not too crowded.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Oh, mother, shut up! Don't you understand? The water's freezing and there aren't enough boats. Not enough by half. Half the people on this ship are going to die.

Not the better half.

Come on, Ruth, get in the boat. First-class seats are right up here.

You know, it's a pity I didn't keep that drawing, It'll be worth a lot more by morning.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

You unimaginable bastard!

Come on, Rose, darlin', there's plenty of room for you. Come on, Rose. You're next, darlin'.

Come into the boat, Rose. Rose, get into the boat!

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Good bye, mother.

Rose, come back here, right now!

Where are you going? To him? To be a whore to a gutter rat?

Rose DeWitt Bukater

I'd rather be his whore than your wife.

Hey, uh, who thought of the name Titanic? Was it you, Bruce?

Yes, actually. I want to convey sheer size, and size means stability, luxury, and above all, strength.

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Do you know of Dr. Freud, Mr Ismay? His ideas about the male preoccupation with size might be of particular interest to you.

[whispering]

What's gotten into you?

Rose DeWitt Bukater

Excuse me. [rises and leaves]

I do apologize.

She's a pistol, Cal. Hope you can handle her.

Well, I may have to start minding what she reads from now on, won't I, Mrs. Brown?

Freud? Who is he? Is he a passenger?

[about Jack drawing her naked]

My heart was pounding the whole time. It was the most erotic moment of my life. Up until then, at least.

So what happened next.

You mean did we "do it"? Sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Bodine, Jack was very professional.

It's been 84 years...

[calmly]

It's okay. Just try to remember anything. Anything at all.

Do you want to hear this or not, Mr. Lovett? It's been 84 years, and I can still smell the fresh paint. The china had never been used. The sheets had never been slept in. Titanic was called the Ship of Dreams, and it was. It really was.

That was the last time Titanic ever saw daylight.

So we're up to dusk on the night of the sinking. Six hours to go.

Incredible. There's Smith and he's standing there and he's got the iceberg warning in his **** hand, excuse me, his hand, and he ordering more speed.

Twenty-six years of experience working against him. He figures anything big enough to sink the ship, they're gonna see in time to turn. The ship's too big with too small a rudder. It doesn't corner worth a damn. Everything he knows is wrong.

Quartermaster Hichens

It's our lives now, not theirs.
