that many.
LUCILE
I despise small boats. I just know I'm going to be seasick. I always get
seasick in small boats. Good Heavens, there's a man down there.
In a lit porthole beneath the surface she sees Jack looking up at her... a
face in a bubble of light under the water.
CUT TO:
189 INT. MASTER AT ARMS OFFICE
Rose stops trashing the room, and stands there, breathing hard.
ROSE
There's no key in here.
They look around at the water, now almost two feet deep. Jack has pulled his
feet up onto the bench.
JACK
You have to go for help.
ROSE
(nodding)
I'll be right back.
JACK
I'll wait here.
She runs out, looking back at him once from the doorway, then splashes away.
Jack looks down at the swirling water.
CUT TO:
190 INT. STAIRWELL AND CORRIDORS
Rose splashes down the hall to a stairwell going up to the next deck. She
climbs the stairs, her long skirt leaving a trail like a giant snail. The
weight of it is really slowing her down. She rips at the buttons and
shimmies quickly out of the thing. She bounds up the stairs in her stockings
and knee-length slip, to find herself in--
191 A LONG CORRIDOR... part of the labyrinth of steerage hallways forward.
She is alone here. A long groan of stressing metal echoes along the hall as
the ship continues to settle. She runs down the hall, unimpeded now.
ROSE
Hello? Somebody?!
She turns a corner and runs along another corridor in a daze. The hall
slopes down into water which, shimmers, reflecting the light. The margin of
the water creeps toward her. A YOUNG MAN appears, running through the water,
sending up geysers of spray. He pelts past her without slowing, his eyes
crazed...
ROSE
Help me! We need help!
He doesn't look back. It is like a bad dream. The hull gongs with terrifying
sounds.
The lights flicker and go out, leaving utter darkness. A beat. Then they
come back on. She finds herself hyperventilating. That one moment of
blackness was the most terrifying of her life.
A STEWARD runs around the nearest corner, his arms full of lifebelts. He is
upset to see someone still in his section. He grabs her forcefully by the
arm, pulling her with him like a wayward child.
STEWARD
Come on, then, let's get you topside, miss, that's right.
ROSE
Wait. Wait! I need your help! There's--
STEWARD
No need for panic, miss. Come along!
ROSE
No, let me go! You're going the wrong way!
He's not listening. And he won't let her go.
