A chance to survive, so he'll come after us again.
A crew on a long voyage may easily fall into melancholy and violence.
A King, my lord. Descended from many Kings.
A savage King.
About two months. Round about the islands.
Administer the punishment now.
After taking stock of the meagre provisions allowed us,
Again. Will you repeat that, please? The men might be in charge.
Ah, my little ones.
All hands on deck!
All hands on deck. If you please.
All hands.
All they give is a latitude, 25 degrees south.
All they wear is tattoos. In wonderful places.
Alleged mutineers. Continue, Mr. Bligh.
Allison, get over here!
Almighty and everlasting God.
Alright, Smith, you may go and close the door, please.
Alright. Where are they?
Alright. You will report to the ship immediately. Do you understand me?
An activity they participated in wholeheartedly?
An indecent ceremony?
And a fine musician. We're lucky to have him.
And as civilised men we shall die. Have no fear.
And at sunset we caught one in our sail.
And by their manner, we do not expect our welcome to last much longer.
And circumnavigate the globe.
And flagrant defiance publicly uttered.
And from there, my friends, God willing,
And furthermore are willing to swear by it,
And get back to where we were before.
And he always talks of you as his very close friend.
And he was also a coward. Fletcher Christian at least had courage.
And he's in good health, King Tynah. He's very much alive.
And his bloody lordship on your back morning, noon and night.
And how far did you travel in that time?
And how long do you think the men can stand it?
And I am Commander, by law! I am the first. Do you understand?
And I have to report an act of piracy.
And I must accept, as every captain must accept,
And I quote: "To enquire into the cause and circumstances of the seizure
And I shall apply it with an even hand, of course,
And I've never yet seen it come out well.
And I've seen many men, many good men,
And if we don't? These men need a home, Fletcher. They've mutinied once.
And insubordination is no laughing matter.
And now you may dismiss, sir!
And once nearly ran a foul of an English frigate.
And perhaps also for that, I am to blame.
And put them on half rations.
And secondly, upon its successful conclusion
And slowly... make your way out to the launch.
And that her captain, Lieutenant William Bligh, is in the opinion of this court,
And that is how we will go. Anything more?
And that the Gods can be roused by the coupling of men and women.
And the Captain says he'll expect you this evening.
And the next one, please.
And then back to England. We'll circumnavigate the globe.
And then I will kill myself after. You get him dressed now.
And then we can forget the matter.
And there! And look at there!
And this green grocery trip will make your name?
And this time you'll make bloody sure that the decks are clean!
And to assist me in this, I'm replacing Mr. Fryer with Mr. Christian
And to try the said Lieutenant William Bligh
And tomorrow we will assemble to watch him receive punishment
And was it indecent?
And we have provisions or more enough to last us one week.
And when do you think they will be ready to transport in your opinion?
And when you see it, you'll remember my daughter and my grandchild.
And where we are to head beyond the reach of justice, I know not.
And who shall have this?
And who'll navigate?
And yet, Mr. Bligh, in your own log,
And you will clean up this ship and yourselves.
And you will stay on ship.
And your body overindulged in sexual excess.
And your safe and speedy return.
Any fool can steer a ship, sir. It's just knowing where to take it.
Anything for a King. Pigs. Bananas. Coconuts. Breadfruit.
Are you a coward too, sir?
Are you frightened to go around the Horn, Mr. Christian?
Are you in this, Adams?
Are you indeed? I'm not so certain about that.
Around the Horn is the easiest way. The better way.
As a result of illness and fatigue sustained at Cape Horn.
As I said, he sends his greetings to you.
As long as the officers can stand it, Mr. Fryer!
As our King George is descended from many Kings.
As soon as we have put about it will be safe to light your galley fires again.
At four o'clock we buried Valentine
At half past twelve today, James Valentine departed this life
At least I am no worse.
At least ten times we have touched land.
At that time, yes.
Away, you crew gunners.
Aye, aye, sir.
Aye, aye, sir.
Aye, Aye, sir. Prepare to make sail! Let go sheets and tack!
Aye.
Back down in the rigging!
Bananas are very expensive there these days.
Be brief!
Be quiet!
Because all I can promise you, lads, is relentless pain and hardship.
Because it is the quicker route, Mr. Fryer.
Because they believe that Captain Cook is immortal.
Because you know what hardship that means for honest men.
Because you were at a loss, my friend.
Bless these waters and absolve from sin,
Bloody disgrace. Now you'll be well advised, sir,
Breadfruit?
Breadfruit. Breadfruit's a very good idea. Yes, breadfruit.
Business, dammit. Any bloody business.
But I suppose I have found freedom.
But mind they appreciate the gravity of their offence.
But most where it is most required.
But the Navy Board would not heed either request. See?
But think to yourself, man.
But when men lose their self restraint they say they're natural.
But you needed someone to show you where your duty really lay.
By any of my officers. Or by any of my crew.
By heavens! I'll drink to that.
By now, there are many natives about us.
By the Right Honorable Lords, Commissioners of the Admiralty
Can you explain that?
Can't be helped. We shall all get to know each other pretty closely.
Can't even read.
Capitan Bligh.
Captain Bligh's surprised
Captain Cook was murdered in Hawaii 10 years before?
Captain Cook was our guarantor.
Captain Cook! He's well, and he also sends his greetings.
Captain's orders.
Charlie. If you only had a frock on, I'd ask you for a dance.
Charming tune.
Cheap fodder for the slaves on the plantations there.
Churchill said it was he who made the remark.
Churchill!
Circumnavigation.
Close reef, Mr. Cole.
Close reef, sir?
Close the hatches!
Come along, Mr. Christian.
Come here.
Come in, whoever you are.
Come on then.
Come on, Fulman. Move yourself.
Come on, get in line there.
Come on, get up on deck.
Come on, lads!
Come on, lads.
Come on, lads. No sense in this.
Come on, move yourselves.
Come on, Purcell. Remember that's what we're here for.
Come on, sir. We don't cross the Equator every day.
Come on, wake up. We're taking the ship.
Come on. Get going.
Come on. Keep them coming. Good lads.
Come on. You're no better than one of these natives.
Come, Bligh!
Coming up for sup, Mr. Heywood. Sir.
Commanded by Lieutenant William Bligh
Commend me to your parents and our loving daughters.
Commit the body to the deep.
Could you take a woman like that back home to your friends and family?
Couldn't be better, sir.
Court is assembled
Cross my heart. Paradise.
Dammit all, man, I'm expected to sleep with her.
Damn fools. Don't make it worse for yourself.
Damn you, man. Don't you bloody cross me.
Damn your eyes, man! You turned your back on me!
Dance!
Dance! Dance!
Dead ahead, sir.
Depend upon it, gentlemen.
Desist this madness!
Did not the savages carry out some sort of ceremony?
Disease and dirt than ever died by drowning.
Do it now!
Do it now.
Do it, Christian. Kill him!
Do they really go around with no clothes on?
Do you hear me? Are you prepared to make the best of it? All of you?
Do you still do that?
Do you think someone had better go and look?
Do you understand me?
Do you understand me?
Do you understand?
Do you understand? Good God, pigs in a sty have more comprehension
Doesn't seem to like fair weather, does he?
Don't answer back.
Don't argue with me. Close reef.
Don't let go on the pumps!
Don't look at him. There'll be trouble.
Don't make it worse, Quintel.
Don't old man me, Churchill. You haven't got a lucky face.
Don't put Adams under the lash.
Don't you agree, gentlemen?
Dr. Huggen, another glass?
Easy!
Enter.
Enter.
Enter.
Eternal rest grant unto him. And may he rest in peace. Amen.
Evening, Mr. Adams, sir.
Ever?
Every ship in the Royal Navy has a copy of that book and those charts.
Everybody in the boat! Prepare to pull away!
Everyone on deck!
Everything alright here?
Everything you need is here.
Except Bligh.
Excuse me, sir. I...
Eyes front, Mr. Christian!
Faster, man!
Fifty guineas says he's dead.
Filth, sir! Filthy, Mr. Christian. Still filthy! Look!
Fire second salute!
Firstly, our journey will be shortened.
Fletcher Christian corrupted them.
Fletcher Christian could hardly be called a novice, sir.
Fletcher Christian, Masters Mate.
Fletcher Christian. Your wife.
Fletcher wants you.
Fletcher, I want you to sail with me again.
Fletcher, the men are ready for anything.
Fletcher!
Fletcher!
Fletcher! What are you all doing?
Fletcher.
Fletcher.
For cowardice and insubordination.
For his conduct on that occasion."
Freedom, retribution, that's what you want.
Friday, October 10th.
From us to King George.
Fulman. Get up here.
Gag them both.
Get aboard, sir!
Get aloft!
Get back, you... you bastard! Keep back, you bastard!
Get him dressed!
Get in the boat! Lose that barrel. Stop playing games!
Get in the boat.
Get out. Let's go!
Get over then.
Get ready, boys. Get the oars out.
Get some of this muck down you.
Get these things tied down now!
Get up!
Get your knees up, Quintel.
Gifts from yourself to His Majesty King George.
Given you a rest, has he, darling?
Go below to your quarters...
Go now?
God damn you! You're the scum of the earth!
God damn your blood to hell with mine, sir!
God damn your blood!
God damn your hide.
Good evening, Adams.
Good evening, Mr. Heywood, sir.
Good luck to them, that's what I say.
Good, splendid! Good.
Good!
Good.
Goodbye, boys! Hope you never come back. Hope I never see you again.
Goodnight, goodnight.
Goodnight, goodnight. Off you go...
Goodnight, young ladies.
Gun him down, damn you! They're common criminals.
Hail, Capitan Bligh.
Hail, King Tynah.
Harahai.
Haul on that sheet! Get those sails in!
Have a long ride, Tim. I hope they bloody eat yer, Fryer.
Have been confirmed.
Have the carpenter lash those things down, now!
Have you any conception of what you're doing?
Have you ever seen a woman before?
Having him there is good for morale.
He can't, sir. Bit of trouble with the locals out there.
He could grow them in his own garden.
He frightened the men. I did not put that fear there, he did.
He gave me his picture.
He was insubordinate. Cowardly and insubordinate.
He was, sir.
He whose body we now confine to them.
He would appreciate breadfruit greatly.
He's a good man, I think. But I want you to be Master's Mate.
He's dead?
He's no longer with us. I've taken the ship.
Here they come. Get it. Good one!
Here you go, sir. Have some of that. Have some of that, sir.
Hey, Fletcher Christian. Harami.
Hey, is it true what they say about Tahiti?
Hey, you bloody fools.
Hi. Christian's taking the ship. Are you with us?
His Majesty King George has sent you many gifts,
His royal highness woken up at last, has he?
Hold your tongue, Goddamn you, sir! I'm addressing the crew, Mr. Christian.
Home sick.
Hooray! Hooray!
Hot.
How can he come after us? He'll be marooned on some island.
How could he betray my friendship and kindness to him?
How do you fancy the Endeavour Straits? The Indian Ocean?
How is the great Captain Cook?
How long you stay in Tahiti?
How much?
However, the cure for our predicament is discipline.
However, you may cut them loose, Mr. Christian.
However. However. We're still faced with a long hard voyage.
I am committed to a desperate enterprise.
I am in hell! Hell, sir! Why are you being so damn reasonable now?
I am Master of The Bounty.
I am prepared to forgive and I am prepared to forget.
I am.
I beg you, use that poor flesh to save the others.
I believe this can be relieved by regular exercise.
I bring you greetings from His Majesty, King George of England.
I can no longer write for lack of strength.
I can only assume he has decided to return to a life in Tahiti.
I can, sir.
I can't steer a ship.
I could have passed it off with a laugh and have done less harm.
I counted on a strength of character which you do not possess.
I did not lose my ship, sir!
I don't know yet, sir. We'll find them.
I don't know. It was the place itself.
I don't know. Somewhere the British ships won't find us.
I don't think the men will have it.
I fancy having a look at a few of the other islands around here.
I found the most extraordinary plant today. On the west side of the island.
I give you my word they will not be harmed.
I go everywhere with a loaded pistol.
I had assumed that it was simply youthful passion.
I hadn't expected this from the Horn. Do you think the weather will stay with us?
I have decided to make for the island of Tafuha
I have done no more than any natural man would do.
I have failed completely in my attempt to round Cape Horn
I have said farewell
I hope never to see Fletcher Christian again.
I hope you got some lamb in that stew.
I know nothing of a dozen.
I mean to make good use of every hour of sailing time.
I might just have a lucky face.
I must say I'm no longer surprised myself
I need the charts. Turn around.
I once saw six men washed overboard on one wave.
I only say the Bounty's too small.
I only wish to God I'd given him muskets. Now get out.
I place on you, my fellow officers,
I promise you, our chances of survival are fair.
I said if I were you. I'm not.
I said leave him! You sodding bastards!
I said you're in my seat.
I see nothing, sir, but your finger.
I think His Majesty likes breadfruit. Isn't that true, Mr. Nelson?
I think so. Yes.
I think you'll need it more than I.
I think your brain has been overheated, sir.
I think, yes.
I took one.
I understand you dismissed the swabbing party.
I want my opinion in the log, sir.
I want my opinion in the log!
I want to be advised of their progress every day, Mr. Christian.
I want to make a name for myself, before I'm too old.
I was thirsty. I took one of your coconuts. I thought it of no consequence.
I will decide your punishment when you're fit to receive it.
I wonder what we shall find out.
I would not have accepted you as boson of a river barge.
I'll be back to collect it.
I'll do my best.
I'll have her.
I'll navigate.
I'll not have any of your foul, filthy gutter ways on board my ship!
I'll not have your vile ways brought aboard my ship, sir!
I'll see you hanged.
I'll take my chance.
I'm as much a man as you are, sir.
I'm determined the Bounty shall not lose a single man.
I'm doing me best, sir.
I'm much obliged to you.
I'm not coming, Fletcher. I've thought it out, and... Well, I'm staying here.
I'm very sorry, William.
I've come to say good bye.
If I had known your nature,
If I were you, I'd take the ship. That's all.
If you don't mend your ways.
If you get home, tell my mother that I love her.
If you were to send him little breadfruit plants.
If you wish to leave some of these men on the ship,
Impound the personal stores of every man on Mr. Christian's watch
In all my years at sea...
In it, there is the frequent entry of a single word: dancing.
In my opinion we should not, sir. We keep on our course.
In my opinion, we should put about.
In one week's time we will put to sea. There will be no more grog.
In one week's time...
In order to satisfy your ambition to circumnavigate the globe.
In the afternoon we saw gannets and many other birds.
In the box are gifts for the people of Tahiti Nui.
In the hope of supplementing our supplies of food and water.
In what capacity?
Indeed it is, sir. His Majesty is a very keen gardener.
Indeed, in the matter of his command of the Bounty's open launch,
Interesting.
Is surely a result of our drunken surgeon's neglect.
Is that what you want?
Is there anything wrong, sir?
Is this relevant, Captain Greetham?
Isn't this what you came for? Here you go.
It always makes me laugh,
It can't be helped. Come along.
It could wait until tomorrow.
It depends how inquisitive we are, Mr. Young.
It doesn't look much. Does it?
It doesn't sound quite right to me.
It is their deep belief
It lacks glory, William.
It takes a discontented crew.
It takes more than an infatuated youth to make a mutiny.
It was taken from me by a gang of mutineers led by Fletcher Christian.
It wasn't bloody me!
It wasn't him, sir. It was me.
It will be fairly reported that you were not part of this rabble. Thank you.
It won't be long now, lads. You'll all be on your way home.
It would appear so, sir. And... I also needed their assistance.
It'll take us close to the most savage islands in these waters.
It's a breadfruit.
It's land.
It's not a threat, it's a warning.
It's not proper to land without identification.
It's our island.
It's very painful, sir.
Its consequences would be two fold.
Jamie, hold that board. Someone!
Jesus Christ.
Just by the mouth of the river.
Just leaving England.
Just look at yourself, man. Look at the way you're dressed.
Just shut your mouth!
Just shut your mouth! You shut your mouth! I will run you through!
Keep em' coming. Move it along. Don't drop them.
Keep it down, lads.
Keep it quiet, Churchill.
Keep your mind and your eyes on your work, man.
King George will send many ships with many guns to punish us for what you have done.
King Tynah, sir.
King Tynah. Perhaps I could carry back in return.
Lads!
Lads. One of you will have to come out. There's no room.
Land Ho! Land Ho!
Last night my personal store of coconuts was well up to the top of the netting.
Last night. Three men of Mr. Heywood's watch deserted ship.
Leave it. Now!
Led to grave discontent.
Let me know the intent of your question, Mr. Greetham.
Let's hear it for the Captain, lads! Hip hip!
Let's kill the bugger now, lads.
Lieutenant Bligh, I have your log here before me.
Lieutenant Bligh.
Like Mr. Fryer with a relative novice?
Listen to me.
Literally?
Loads of them. They're all over the place.
Look out, he's got a knife.
Look, I've been at sea many years, Fletcher. Since I was twelve.
Look, there's hundreds of them!
Look! Filthy, sir! Filth there!
Lose their heads over native women in these waters.
Ma'am.
Maieva.
Make sail, Mr. Cole.
Make sail.
Make the best of it, Smith? Yes, but will you?
Man those pumps!
May I ask why you have come to my table in a state of undress?
More, perhaps, than you ultimately found to be acceptable, Mr. Bligh?
Most humbly do we thank thee for what we're about to receive.
Move yourself.
Mr. Bligh, come here, please.
Mr. Bligh, how long did you attempt to round the Horn?
Mr. Bligh, when my spirit is gone,
Mr. Bligh!
Mr. Bligh. When you planted out your breadfruit,
Mr. Bligh. Will you get up? Get up.
Mr. Christian, I appeal to you, sir.
Mr. Christian, it is half past seven.
Mr. Christian, you will report to the ship before sundown.
Mr. Christian! Mr. Christian, sir.
Mr. Christian.
Mr. Christian. Mr. Young. Put a gag on Quintel.
Mr. Cole, give this man my share of food.
Mr. Cole, have that lashed down. And all the men on deck, now!
Mr. Cole, take him below, sir!
Mr. Cole, take this man below.
Mr. Cole, you'll hoist the Jack.
Mr. Cole! Get Dr. Huggen.
Mr. Cole! Mr. Cole!
Mr. Cole! Mr. Cole!
Mr. Cole! You'll hang for this!
Mr. Cole. Would you distribute the gifts to King Tynah and his good people.
Mr. Fryer, come back here. Mr. Fryer, sir! Come back here!
Mr. Fryer, make way.
Mr. Fryer! Close reef!
Mr. Fryer.
Mr. Fryer. Get up here.
Mr. Fryer. I seem to have made a misjudgement.
Mr. Heywood, how is it you did not see them? Were you asleep?
Mr. Heywood's going to have to answer for this, you know.
Mr. Nelson.
Must I suffer this before...
My daughter... She has something of yours.
My dearest Betsy,
My doubts about Mr. Fryer's commitment to our endeavour
My God! No!
My Lord, if the crew were allowed to witness it, yes.
My Lord.
My place.
Ned, I found it. Listen.
Never been to school meself.
Never see England again.
No, it was Fletcher Christian and the native girl.
No, no, he's not dead. We set him adrift with some of the crew.
No, no, it doesn't, sir. But I've seen the Horn when the waves
No, no, Mr. Nelson. We're civilised men, not savages.
No, of course you couldn't.
No, sir, we shall not. I run a healthy ship, Mr. Fryer.
No, sir. Mr. Christian said a daily inspection was not necessary.
No, sir. Not at the ceremony.
No, thank you, no.
No, thank you, sir.
No!
No. I've got a wife and three kids back home.
No. None.
No. Thank you. No. Make sure Mr. Heywood has some, though.
No. There is fear.
No. You have done no more than any wild animal would do.
No... Captain Cook is very much alive.
Not me, lads. Not me.
Not one of you in later years will look back without a surge of pride.
Not today?
Not yet. Soon.
Nothing but rotten biscuits and pork.
Now if the thief will not declare himself...
Now it seems to me, all we have to do is simply sail along this line of latitude.
Now it will take us at least two months
Now listen to me, all of you.
Now look, five minutes after I go below,
Now look, Fletcher.
Now look, we'll go around Cape Horn to Tahiti.
Now perhaps you will join me in prayer. Oh Lord, our heavenly father.
Now that it's happened, no. No, I'm not surprised.
Now you see.
Now you'll call up the swabbing party, yet again!
Now you'll get these decks clean
Now, if the thief will declare himself, I will punish him alone.
Now, if you're prepared to make do and make sacrifices
Now, the crew is deeply demoralised, gentlemen.
Now. That's right.
Now. We set out to circumnavigate the globe. And by God we shall do it.
Oars!
Of course I understand the excitement and...
Of His Majesty's armed vessel, The Bounty,
Of mine?
Off hats.
Oh, dear God.
Oh, did he indeed? Well, Mr. Christian.
Oh, God.
Oh, God. By whose mercy the souls of all men rest.
Oh, the men won't have it. Are they in charge of the Bounty?
Oh, they'll have a home. Pitcairn's Island.
OK. That'll do. Haul him in. Away.
On one occasion only, sir. And not grave.
On your feet.
One coconut, Mr. Christian? A dozen were taken, man.
One of our members collapsed.
Only to find either barren rocks or hostile inhabitants.
Only to you in this bitter moment can I reveal my heart.
Or by God I'll make you lick them clean with your tongues
Or by God, you'll answer for it, sir!
Or cleanliness than you buggers have.
Our stores are low. The spirit of the men even lower.
Over there.
Pass us your watch up here then.
Perhaps it would be useful if you told the court in your own words
Perhaps.
Poor bugger. Alright, bury him.
Poor Heywood.
Prepare to make way. Make way.
Prepare to toss oars.
Pritchard, get over here!
Pull! Pull!
Put on your jacket, Mr. Christian. If you please.
Put this man over the cannon.
Quicker if we strike the one week in a hundred
Quickly now, children.
Quiet! We will get him in the boat. Set him adrift. Get him dressed!
Quintel!
Ready to fire the salute. Fire!
Remove some of these gussets!
Revive the spirit as they say. Have a sup of that. Go on.
Right men! Food up! Come on.
Robert, mind those bloody pots! Robert! Robert's on fire! Someone douse him!
Row for your lives! Take your clothes off.
Row for your lives! We're chops and liver to them if they catch us.
Seasick, Mr. Heywood, sir?
She should soften the old man up a bit.
She's one of King Tynah's wives. A gift from one chief to another as it were.
Should she not be allowed to choose for herself, sir?
Shut up your trap!
Shut up! I'm staying here!
Shut up. Christian's taking the ship. Christian's taking the ship.
Shut your mouth, Purcell.
Sir, we'd like a word. We've had it up to here.
Sir!
Sir!
Sir! Sir!
Sir?
Sir.
Sir.
Sir.
Sir. I am Lieutenant William Bligh. I'm a British naval officer...
Sir. Over here.
Sit down, damn you! I'll knock you on the head with it.
Sit down! Sit down!
Six o'clock. Prompt, if you please.
Smith, bring that chest to me.
Smith.
Smith.
So for 20 minutes each day, I had the crew mustered and I had them dance.
So he will be lashed and we will go around the Horn.
So it did begin at the ceremony?
So that is the situation, gentlemen. Plain and simple.
So you were more or less immortal too.
So you would have us go the long way? Around Africa and Australia.
So you've found freedom, have you?
So, let's get the ship running properly
So...
Some of the men would like to remain here and wait for the next ship.
Some of us haven't had nothing in days.
Some people say he was killed by the people of Hawaii.
Somebody get a bloody hammer!
Someone on this ship is very lucky.
Someone!
Sorry to see you go.
Sorry, sir.
Sorry. Never been to sea before. Two months ago I was still at school.
Southwest by south. Aye, aye, sir.
Southwest by south. That's your course.
Square away!
Stand aside.
Stand by for a second salute!
Stand by to close reef! All hands on deck! Move yourselves!

Stand by to set the mainsail.
Stand by, you crew gunners!
Stand down!

Stand up!
Stand up.
Stay here. Do not go to the other islands. No welcome there for you.
Stay there, Pritchard.
Stay where you are. Or I'll blow your head off.
Stay, Pritchard, you're a man.
Stop that laughing! Silence! You think this is funny?
Stop that noise!
Stop!
Stupid buggers.
Surely, Mr. Bligh. It was unwise to replace a professional sailor
Surrender your sword and be seated.
Tahiti?
Take her. You will have all the men you need. Go now.
Take it away, Mr. Cole.
Take the men below.
Take this tusk.
Taken.
Thank you, Mr. Christian.
Thank you, Mr. Fryer.
Thank you, Mr. Lamb. Or you, John Adams.
Thank you, Quintel.

That he hasn't had the pleasure of your company at supper for some weeks.
That isn't a raft, it's a coffin.
That she's got a lovely little Tahitian grandson.
That the earth is rendered fruitful by the coupling of their Gods.
That's enough, Purcell.
That's perfect.
That's the spirit! Come on, we'll do it!
That's what I ask myself. Will you make the best of it?
The actual and immediate responsibilty, however,
The Admiralty has instructed me to lead an expedition,
The crew is not on trial here, Mr. Bligh. You, sir, are on trial.
The crew were anything but discontented, sir.
The end of our first day at sea.
The Endeavour Straits and the Great Barrier Reef.
The events of April 28th last year.
The fact that he was a good friend of yours,
The Fiji islands where cannibalism is perfected almost to a science.
The Hottentots out there aren't as friendly as these ones, you know.
The inevitable and theoretical responsibilty for that.
The King.
The King. God bless him.
The man you promoted.
The men are very quiet.
The officers and their lot get everything.
The only one I wholly trust is Adams.
The penalty for which is death by hanging.
The question at issue is how you came to lose your ship.
The rest were taken by other members of your watch
The Royal Navy is not a humorous institution, sir.
The ship can stand it very well, Mr. Fryer!
The ship can't stand it!

The ship is sinking, sir.
The ship.

There are rumblings, are there?
There he goes. Mr. Bligh and bloody mighty.
There is a thief among us.
There is no island. We want to turn back to Tahiti.
There was no indication of any resentment towards you?
There will be no killing.
There will be no killing. We set him adrift.
There will be no more mixing with the damned degenerate natives of these islands.
There will be no more shore leave. You've become a rabble, all of you.
There will be nothing but flesh remaining.
