An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

Nick is intrigued by the story of the statue's magic powers: perhaps the Buddha offers him hope that he too may get his heart's desire: a return to mortality. But there is a sudden crash, as the Titanic hits an iceberg. He leaves Claire Gibson in her stateroom and goes on deck to find out what is going on. When he returns, rather out of breath, she is staring at the Black Buddha statuette. They go on deck, where Nick obliges her by draining her before the Titanic sinks. But, curse or no curse, he takes the statue with him when he leaves the ship.

  • Nick is intrigued by the story of the statue's magic powers: perhaps the Buddha offers him hope that he too may get his heart's desire: a return to mortality. But there is a sudden crash, as the Titanic hits an iceberg. He leaves Claire Gibson in her stateroom and goes on deck to find out what is going on. When he returns, rather out of breath, she is staring at the Black Buddha statuette. He assures her that there can be no danger; but she is unconvinced, since they would not otherwise be putting the women and children off in the lifeboats. To Claire, this clearly indicates the curse at work: the ship is unsinkable, but it is going to sink: it could be no accident. Furthermore, there aren't enough boats for the men. Believing that it is the curse that caused the collision, and that she is therefore responsible for the impending deaths of so many passengers, Claire asks Nick to kill her instead of bringing her across, for she feels it would be intolerable for live for eternity with the guilt for so many deaths. They go on deck, where Nick obliges her by draining her before the Titanic sinks. But, curse or no curse, he takes the statue with him when he leaves the ship.
