- 1:29You're the journalist, aren't you?
- 1:31I gave him your letter the other day.
- 1:33The professor's probably read it.
- 1:37He received another letter this morning.
- 1:38I put it in his mailbox. It was a letter from the museum.
- 1:42Letters from the museum? They always mean trouble.
- 1:46Hey, maybe you could take it to him.
- 1:48He has trouble moving around, you know, He's an old man, you
- 1:52know what I mean. You want my advice?
- 1:55He should see a doctor. Well, that's what I think,
- 1:58anyway. Oh, and have a cat.
- 2:00It looks like something fell from your bag over there.
- 2:03Well then, have a nice day. My friend, this old fool is
- 3:52overjoyed that your editor has finally decided to send you to
- 3:57interview me in person. As pleasant as it has been, our
- 4:04recent correspondence will not allow me to discuss certain
- 4:08subjects as freely as I would like.
- 4:12The subject of your special issue, the Amazon.
- 4:18You must be aware that it hits very close to home for me.
- 4:24That mysterious line is both the source of my greatest joys and
- 4:29my deepest disgrace, as my old friends at the museum probably
- 4:36told you. But no matter what they say, I
- 4:42know what really happened over there in the 30s when my
- 4:46companions lie ventured into the unknown
- 5:20not only to finally bring my version of what happened
- 5:24tonight, but perhaps to do even time is running out.
- 5:34So safe travels my friend. I am quite pleased to welcome
- 5:40you to my humble abode, signed Professor Alexander Ballumbois.
- 8:18You are the journalist, aren't you?
- 8:22Come, come. I'm my son.
- 8:34I'm my son. Too late for me.
- 8:41Too late, it's all over for me. I'm no longer in good health, my
- 8:49friend. It's a pity, but what can I do?
- 8:57In any case, Amazon, all that. No one ever believed me so.
- 9:15After all those years, the egg, the egg, the egg is still alive.
- 9:30Yes, I had planned to take it back over there to Amazon.
- 9:52My expedition was ready and all planned down to the smallest
- 10:01detail and now I have no strength left.
- 10:17You must go for me. You must go.
- 10:22Take the egg back. Take the egg of the white birds
- 10:26back to Amazon. I beg you, please.
- 10:32You will find everything you need right here in the
- 10:39lighthouse. You must go tour.
- 10:49Tour the basement please. You must help
- 13:06None. My dear friend, I am an old man
- 15:09in the twilight of his years. I know now that I will never
- 15:14have the strength to set off again to the Amazon.
- 15:18My only remaining hope resides in convincing you to go in my
- 15:23stead, make amends for the wrong I have done to that country over
- 15:2850 years ago. It was in 1929 at the university
- 15:35where I was finishing my studies in natural sciences that I first
- 15:40heard of the Amazon. I befriended a young law student
- 15:51from that country. His name was Antonio Alvarez,
- 15:56and he was later to become the despotic leader that we now know
- 16:01today. He suggested going with me as my
- 16:07guide and interpreter until we got to the last steps of
- 16:11civilization in his country. A second companion was to join
- 16:18me, the Reverend Father David Makowski, who was burning with
- 16:22desire to perform mission work among the inhabitants of those
- 16:27regions forgotten by the Creator.
- 16:32We set off, therefore, 1 morning in June 1932 on board the Hydra
- 16:38Float, a revolutionary invention of mine.
- 16:42Unfortunately, this first prototype had several
- 16:47imperfections. The mechanics of the craft
- 16:50failed us on the way near Shipwreck Island.
- 16:54Large number of sperm whales had settled there.
- 16:58I feared that we might have hit one of them.
- 17:14But already, my friend, to realize that I'm only at the
- 17:19beginning of this tragic story. If you want to find out about
- 17:24what follows, it will be waiting for you in the basement, your
- 17:28next destination, should you decide to replace me for this
- 17:32new journey. None.
- 20:37None.
