Notes de l'éditeur
- A man walking up to the door of a bar. The name of the bar is ANCHOR. Another man is seen in the background. Not significant at this point. a crane is seen giving a clue to the nature of the place. It is a wharf. The name of the bar also points to the fact that it is a wharf. It relates to sailors.
- The man we saw walking up in the first strip is now stepping into the bar. In the forefront there are two men sitting and talking. Only one man’ face is seen. The one just entered bids a good morning. A general greeting.
- Some body in the bar recognizes the man arrived. He calls out the new comer. We now know the name of the new comer. He is Bill.
- Bill acknowledges the greeting and answers. Now we know the name of the man who greeted Bill. He is George. We also know that Bill is a cook in a ship.
- Bill reveals that he as a ships cook has taken up a job in ‘Sirius’ which is due for a journey with Mr. Haddock as the captain and another VIP passenger Tin tin the famous reporter. A third man reading a newspaper while sipping his drink picks up an interest in their talk.
- George knows who captain Haddock and Tintin are. But he is curious that Bill is working in a fishing trawler. George asks jokingly whether they are going fishing.
- The third man became more interested and started jotting something. Bill spills the beans here. He says they are after a treasure.
- Bill explained every bit of the details. They are going to hunt a treasure in a sunken ship called UNICORN that belonged to a pirate killed in a sea battle with Sir Francis Haddock 400 years ago. Sir Francis is the great grand father of Captain Haddock who is presently going in search of the treasure.
- Bill almost finished suddenly realizes that a man sitting in the corner had been listening to them. From the conversation we understand that the information was not supposed to leak out but it has gone out of mouth.Let us see what happens in the second part.
- A man is seen selling the newspaper. A another man is seen reading the paper. A third man with a pipe in his mouth and in a captains cap is walking towards the newspaper vendor.
- The man in the captains uniform is buying a copy of the newspaper.
- He is captain Haddock who is getting ready to sail next day.
- This was the report that shaken the man in the uniform. But see how well a report has been generated and presented in a newspaper by a scribe sitting conspicuously in a bar in a sailors den. The man had identified the news element in the conversation. This is what we call the nose for news.
