[Carl is discussing the rest of the script with Jack as he is typing on a typewriter]

Carl Denham:
She's standing at the railing. She doesn't know it yet... but they are sailing towards disaster. You got that?

Jack Driscoll:
Okay, so she turns... the first mate is staggering towards her. There's a knife sticking out of his back.

Carl Denham:
Wait a sec. We're killing off the first mate?

Jack Driscoll:
That's assuming she knows who the first mate is.

Carl Denham:
Come on, Jack. It was an honest mistake. Ann is nearsighted. It could have happened to anyone.

Jack Driscoll:
I was joking, Carl.

Carl Denham:
The point is she's horrified. She has to look away. And that's when she sees it.

Jack Driscoll:
Sees what? What?

Carl Denham:
[intensely] The island.

Jack Driscoll:
We're filming on an island now? When did this happen?

Carl Denham:
[shushing] Jack, keep your voice down. I don't want the crew getting spooked.

Jack Driscoll:

Carl Denham:

Jack Driscoll:
What's wrong with this place?

Carl Denham:
There's nothing officially wrong with it. Because, technically, it hasn't been discovered yet.

Jack Driscoll:
[to himself] Okay. All right. So we arrive at this place. [he begins to type it out, saying the letters out loud as he does] S.. K.. U.. L.. L.. Island.

[Carl turns to see Jimmy has overheard the whole thing]
