 * Weston: Excuse me is this the moving picture ship?
 * Watchman: The S.S. Wanderer it sure is, why are you going on this crazy voyage?
 * Weston: Why, what's so crazy about it?
 * Watchman: It's the two guys who've hired it, Denham and Wilson I think their names are.
 * Weston: And what's so crazy about them?
 * Watchman: Well everyone around the harbor say that they're not afraid of anything. I've heard that the two of them would even walk up to a man eating tiger and tell him to look pleasant.
 * Weston: Well that's true and what else?
 * Watchman: There's the cargo for one and I've seen a ship this size with such a crew.
 * Weston: Why is there not enough to man her?
 * Watchman: Not enough are you kidding me? Its three times the ship needs, I don't see where they're going to have enough room to sleep.

(Carl and Bruce explain the location of their island after showing them a piece of paper) (Carl takes out another folded piece of paper from his pocket, he unfolds it and lays it on the table for the others to see. It is a map of the island)
 * Carl: The island we are looking for is located Southwest of Sumatra.
 * Englehorn: Southwest but there's nothing in that area.
 * Jack: Captain Englehorn's right Mr. Denham there's no land Southwest for thousands of miles and not to mention its way outside the shipping lanes.
 * Bruce: Relax you two we won't be traveling thousands of miles, besides the island we're looking for is somewhere in that area.
 * Englehorn: You two sure about that?
 * Carl: Listen, 10 years ago a canoe full of natives from this island was blown to sea. When they were later picked up by a Norwegian barque only one of them was still, unfortunately he died before they could reach port. However the captain managed to get a clear description of the island and where it lies from him.
 * Englehorn: How did you two get a hold of it?
 * Carl: Singapore five years ago, coming home from my last trip. I've known the Norwegian captain for years, he knew that I'd be interested and so was Wilson when I showed it to him.
 * Jack: Did he believe himself?
 * Carl: The only possible landing place is along this long sandy peninsula, the rest of the coastline is sheer precipice hundreds of feet high and across the base of the peninsula cutting it off from the rest of the island is a wall.
 * Englehorn: A wall?
 * Carl: Built thousands of years ago by an advanced civilization, so long ago in fact that the people who live there now have slipped back into barbarism and superstition forgotten their powerful ancestors who built it. That wall however is strong today as it was ages ago, the natives of the island keep it in repair they need it and badly.
 * Jack: Why would they need it so badly?
 * Carl: The Norwegian captain said that there was something on the other side that the natives feared with their lives.
 * Englehorn: A hostile tribe maybe or even a pack of man eating animals?

 * Englehorn: Why yes, some Malay superstition. A spirit or a god of primitive culture?
 * Carl: Anyway, he's said to be neither beast nor man. Monstrous

 * Jack: What was it Philippe?
 * Philipee: I'm afraid when he returned he was so fearful that he gave the rest of that particular log entry to the Holy Office in Rome and begged them to destroy it.
 * Carl: What else is there?
 * Philipee: Over a century later in 1749 a waterlogged lifeboat was found in the same area, now the lifeboat was empty but drawn in blood on the thwart was the likeness of some slouchy humanoid creature and this strange warning "From thy wedding with the creature who touches Heaven, lady God preserve thee".
 * Bruce: Sounds like a lot of rubbish to me.
 * Philipee: In 1830 a British merchant ship, the Queen Mary sailed into the region whilst on its way to Sumatra.

(Carl and Bruce are filming Ann)


 * Carl: You ready Ann?

 * Englehorn: What do you mean Jack?
 * Jack: You see the earth logged into those stone and timber, they have to be replaced after each and every monsoon season.
 * Carl: So there are people living here?
 * Jack: Yes there are Denham and what's more they're scared people.
 * Ann: Scared of what Jack?
 * Jack: I'm not too sure Ann, but clearly whatever they're scared of apparently they felt they need a wall this size to it out.
 * Bruce: Jack, Carl please let me point out two things. One this wall is just an ancient ruin from the islands prehistoric past and second this island is uninhabited.

 * Englehorn: Forget it Wilson, I've lost too many men and I'm not about to lose anymore to your insane suggestion.
 * Bruce: But think of the money that we could make, you could pay compensation to those sailors families.
 * Ann: Forget it Wilson, just leave Kong alone.
 * Bruce: Why would you care Ann, he's just a dumb and mindless brute.

 * Bruce: Like the plague.

(Jack turns to face Wilson with an angry look at the remark)
