Attack of the Kraken

- Do some work there, boy. - Oh, skipped that bolt.

Sorry. - It's nothing like

you've ever seen- - Hold your sea legs,

you dogs!

- Now, that is a sight for sore eyes.

Wouldn't you agree?

- Aye. Aye, been a rough few months.

- Three months, three weeks and six days.

Yes, a sight indeed.

We're days ahead of schedule.

Oh, you've seen to that.

See to the crew, John.

Then come speak with me below.

Aye, Captain.

Is that secure?

Ah, she's tight. She's tight.

Doesn't look secure.

Struggling there are we?

That's all, son.

Get up, lad, and take lamp.

Now, remember you take the end of the line.

- Right. - Around the baling pole

and you're tie it together

with an ordinary square knot, right?

- Aye. - Then you are to sail

and tighten. - Aye.

- Understand? - Aye!

- Good. Honestly, did your mother teach you nothing?

Mother's dead, sir.

- Ellie, you're Henry's new mother now.

Teach him how to the tie those bloody knots, yeah?

Yes, sir.

Good job. Carry on.

- Wait, did you actually see the devil?

With these very eyes.

All alone I was in my quarters.

My mind a maelstrom of thoughts.

I lay there floating in between dreams.

- More like floated between bottles of grog.

It approaches me.

Holds it long, bony fingers

and slowly it points at me.

From this moment on you are cast,

you are sentenced to sail forever without rest.

You will taste neither apples nor tobacco.

You well bed no woman. You will be alone.

Save for a young boy.

Horns will grow from his forehead.

He'll have an ox's face and the skin of a serpent.

Roaming the seas for an attempt-

Carry on.

- And the devil went away and I fell asleep.

- Or it could be god. Wait, did the devil ever come back?

Don't be a fool, lad.

This old fish wife

is just trying to attract your attentions.

He's pathetic.

- You pulled us off course.

- Captain. You pulled us off course, Captain.

- Hmm, Captain, you pulled us off course.

Actually, you pulled us off course three days ago.

Now this is Scotland we're now fast approaching

and we're not due back in London till, what?

Four days from now?

You take me for a fool, John?

- No. - Do you trust me?

With my life.

Then trust me.

- These waters are treacherous and the crew they're not-

- Goddammit, man, I said trust me!

- Why did you pull us off course?

Read this.

- Why do insist on haunting my every step, Corvo?

- Not very lady-like to steal a man's blade, Ada.

You address me as second mate.

- You only have that title because you are a-

Choose your next words wisely.

- You know what you are.

What was that?

Yah!

Get up, whore.

- So, we're not going to make a profit then.

- We're a whaling ship. We know fucking whales.

- We've got linens and silks, plenty to trade

and I think there's a few barrels of oil.

That's not enough.

- We've had far worse expeditions than this.

- John, trust me when I say it's not enough.

What about the crew?

The crew?

The crew'll be fine.

- I've taken this ship on a course for a bearing

for this exact piece of coastline.

- Why? You're planning on killing us all.

- There's still money to be made.

- Don't be a bloody fool, Shaw.

Watch your mouth.

I still be the captain on this here ship.

Very well.

And what is this bounty full of riches

that I don't know about then, hmm?

You know there's no whaling to be had this close to land.

It's not whales we hunt.

- Then, what are you talking about?

There's no need for this.

Put the weapon down. - Come on, lad.

You can do it.

Corvo, don't!

Ain't no one gonna stop this?

Get him, girlie.

We planned for this, Corvo!

For God's sake!

- I stand besides Ada.

- What in God's name's going on here?

- Just a bit of disciplinary action, sir.

She attacked me!

Hold your tongue, man.

Come on, someone get him up.

That's enough. Corvo, that is enough!

Now look, I know we've had a long voyage, right?

Tempers are frayed. We're all very tired.

But I will not allow this sort of behavior

to happen under my watch.

Is that understood?

- Sir, I- - Is that understood?

Yes, sir.

Oh, my God.

Kraken!

What is that thing?

It's trying to grab the ship.

Everyone grab a weapon! Attack it.

Take cover!

Everybody, hold on!

Where am I?

Scab, I'm, I'm here. I'm here, son.

I'm here. Breathe.

- It hurts. Get this thing off.

- Ada, Corvo, get over here, now!

Breathe with me. Stay with me, son.

Breathe. Come on, either side of it.

Either side, come on now.

Help me.

- Either side of this now, come on.

One, two, three.

All right, Ada, get a hold of him!

Get hold of him. Corvo, give me your scarf.

John, that is all for him.

Give me your scarf, Corvo.

Corvo, give me your scarf now.

It's okay. It's okay.

- Keep an eye on that damn sea for me.

This is going to hurt a bit, boy.

Corvo, knife.

John.

- No, please don't! Please don't!

- Listen to me, son. Listen to me.

I have to. This is going to save your life.

Bite down on this.

Hold him! Hold him!

Hold him!

It's okay. It's okay.

Shaw! Shaw!

- That one you can have for free,

but the next one I'll answer.

- Did you know, man? Did you know?

Aye, I did.

- So that was your scheme all along, was it?

You think you can kill that bloody thing?

- Aye, I do. - You fool!

You desperate old fool.

This blood. This is their blood.

It's on your hands now, man.

It's a fate kinder

than going home with an empty purse, John.

- That is not your choice to make.

- You don't know what it's like, John.

You've not been homeless

on the streets in London with nothing, penniless.

Looking through a window in a life you once had.

Waiting to die or worse.

I pity you. I truly do.

Ah! - I won't stop, John.

John, we need this.

No you, you need this, man.

I'm done with you.

You go and do whatever you wish.

You can go and swim in the belly of the beast

for all I care.

We're through, Shaw.

Yah. It's here.

It's here all right. Yeah.

- Sir? - I'm gonna go

and walk the headland look for any survivors.

I won't be long.

Captain?

- You ever see anything like that before, Captain?

- I spent more time in my life at sea

than I have at land.

But I'd never seen a Kraken.

Kraken? Kraken, you say, huh?
