The last dive

Wide: crew prepare Erik beside the diving ladder. Copper helmet resting nearby. Lars checks the surface equipment; Ronald and Tony behind visitor rope.
Erik: I am checking the covers over the gunports. Tony: Gunports?

Medium: Erik indicates a simple chalk sketch of a square opening in a ship hull. No map.
Erik: Openings for the cannons. We must seal them before the lift. Ronald: Or the water comes straight back in.

Close: crew fits Erik's copper diving helmet. An air hose and communication lead run back to the deck equipment.
Tony: And that hose? Lars: His air. We stay with him every moment.

Tall lower left: Erik descends the ladder into dark green water. Cream suit, copper helmet, no scuba tanks.
Lars: Can you hear me, Erik? Erik, through telephone: Loud and clear.

Lower right: Tony watches the helmet vanish. Ronald quietly watches Tony.
Tony: I could not go down there. Ronald: Neither could I.
