TV Review: NAUTILUS Episode 5, ‘Anguille Fumée'
Season 1 Episode 5 of Nautilus begins with the ship in free-fall as every effort to dislodge the giant electric eel they picked up in the previous episode fails. Worse still, soon after, the crew starts acting strange. An unlikely hero must rise if the crew is going to make it out of the depths of the ocean. I found Episode 4 of Nautilus underwhelming, but the team behind this AMC show comes back swinging with its fifth entry. In 'Anguille Fumée,' the show brings out its most tense episode yet in a locked-room horror mystery. This was like watching some of our favorite Star Trek horror episodes, but set in the deep in a submarine. Nautilus, Season 1 Episode 5, 'Anguille Fumée' With so much of the episode taking place in the submarine itself, I felt we got to see more of the Nautilus crew in this episode. We still don't know any of their backstory, but more screen time with the supporting crew is always enjoyable. Their quirky personalities cut through all the tension. RELATED: Read our Nautilus reviews Elsewhere with the East India Mercantile Company, the stakes rise as captured Nautilus crewmember Jagadish Ghosh (Chum Ehelepola) is in dire straits while being confronted by Captain Billy Millais (Luke Arnold). The creative team has been dropping hints throughout the show that there's more to Millais than he can let on. And Arnold has been quietly capturing this intrigue in his performance. I am looking forward to seeing where they take his character. RELATED: Everything We Know So Far About The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping 'Anguille Fumée' is spectacularly tense. The ship is in danger; the crew is at their wits' end, and danger is at every step. They're in uncharted waters—literally and figuratively—and trust isn't high. Anything and everything can set off a fuse, and this Nautilus episode plays with that concept while leaning into classic horror imagery and story beats. The Accent Issue An issue that hasn't cropped up before is the accents. I can't assess the other accents on Nautilus , but several characters speak Hindi, and one character speaks Bengali in this episode—the actors speaking Hindi are very obviously not native to India, because it's heavily-accented. RELATED: The Final Battle Begins in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Infinity Castle Official Trailer Nemo actor Shazad Latif is a British actor with Pakistani heritage. Shabana Azeez, who plays Nemo's wife Renouka, and Samara Wheeler, who plays their child Mya, are both Australian. They're playing Indian characters in an era where hardly anyone traveled, they shouldn't have anachronistic accents when speaking their mother tongues. And the gentleman speaking Bengali—not an Indian character or actor—kudos for trying, but I couldn't understand a single word he said. I had to read the subtitles. RELATED: Summer Game Fest 2025: A New Era of Horror Begins With Resident Evil Requiem But the accent issue is a negligible problem on Nautilus . The actors are doing their best, possibly in languages they aren't familiar with. I can't fault them. I'm someone who grew up in India, and I speak regional languages with an accent because English is my first language. And I watch way too much TV, which has affected the way I speak. Nemo and Humility We get a little more of Humility Lucas' (Georgia Flood) backstory. It's nothing we haven't seen and read in a ton of stories about women in the past who tried to break the mold. But for young viewers, they'll find Humility's chaffing and belligerence against a sexist world a mirror to their own fight against the patriarchy. RELATED: Everything Coming to Netflix in July 2025 But an ongoing issue is that the creators of Nautilus are so intent on positioning Humility as the 'underestimated woman with brains' that they keep forgetting Nemo is the brains behind the ship's design. He would, therefore, know something about engineering and science. Nemo spends far too much time stultified by the science, while Humility is always saving the moment with her scientific knowledge. The story and their connection would be far stronger if they worked together. They can disagree on their methods—which briefly happens in this episode—but they're always at odds, or underestimating each other. Five episodes into Nautilus , their dynamic seems to be standing in place. RELATED: Read our Interview with the Vampire recaps If Nemo and Humility spend too much time tearing each other down, the eventual bond that the writers have undoubtedly written for them won't be believable. But I have faith that the show will right that issue, if by doing nothing else but leaning into the chemistry that Latif and Flood have easily built over five episodes. RELATED: Movie Review: M3GAN 2.0 This is one of the best episodes of Nautilus yet, but, perhaps because it's so engrossing and enjoyable, the show's issues were amplified.

MoCI orders recall of Lincoln, Ford and Kia vehicle models
Tribune News Network Doha The Ministry of Commerce and Industry (MoCI), in cooperation with Almana Motors Company, the authorised dealer for Ford and Lincoln vehicles, has announced the recall of Lincoln Aviator and Nautilus (2021–2022 models), as well as Ford Explorer and Bronco (2021 model). The recall is due to the possibility that an engine valve in some affected vehicles may crack, potentially resulting in engine failure and a loss of motive power. Additionally, in collaboration with Al-Attiya Motors and Trading Company, the authorised dealer for Kia vehicles, the MoCI has recalled the Kia Sportage 2025 model. The recall is attributed to a possible fuel leak caused by a poorly manufactured high-pressure fuel pipe, which could lead to a fire in the engine compartment or reduced engine performance. The ministry said the recall campaign comes within the framework of its ongoing efforts to protect consumers and ensure that car dealers follow up on vehicle defects and repairs. The ministry added that it will coordinate with the dealer to follow up on the maintenance and repair works and will communicate with customers to ensure that the necessary repairs are carried out. The ministry has urged all customers to report any violations to its Consumer Protection and Anti-Commercial Fraud Department, which processes complaints, inquiries, and suggestions through the following channels: Call Centre: 16001; Email:

NAUTILUS Episode 5 Sneak Peek: Things Get Ugly
Pressure reveals character. While the Nautilus continues to evade capture, the same isn't true for its crew. In the sneak peek clip below from Nautilus Season 1 Episode 5, 'Anguille Fumée,' it's implied that Director Crawley (Damien Garvey) uses torture to learn what Nemo's (Shazad Latif) plans are. RELATED: TV Review: Nautilus Episode 4, 'Slippery When Wet' Unfortunately, Captain Youngblood (Jacob Collins Levy) seems to trust his data more than intel extracted under duress. How reasonable of him. Crawley's not in the mood to be reasonable. Nor is he forthcoming about why the coordinates they've charted are so important. Nautilus, 'Anguille Fumée' The episode's logline hints at a lot that the clip doesn't reveal: The Nautilus is helplessly dragged into the volcanic Ring of Fire by a giant electric eel. The crew begins to drift off into hallucinogenic stupors caused by mysterious spores. Humility must summon courage to save the Nautilus and its crew. ( Fun fact: The episode's title, 'Anguille Fumée,' translates to 'smoked eel.' Read into that whatever you like.) RELATED: Read our Nautilus reviews As neither Humility (Georgia Flood) nor hallucinogenic spores appear in the clip, we can't make any predictions on how any of that turns out. However, the 'huge pulses of electrical energy' reported by Youngblood's crew member may be eel-related. Or it could be the Nautilus trying to escape the eel. That would still make it eel-related, I guess. The conflicting information indicates that Nemo's crew is loyal to him and their cause, even when faced with (one can assume) sadistic physical assault. Villains rarely see themselves as such, but Crawley's self-assured dehumanization of the hostage crew member sets him firmly in the baddie camp. His order to kill the man for lying makes him THE baddie of the moment. RELATED: 6 Great Historical Fiction Novels Focused on Real Women From History The jury's still out on the rest of the pursuers.

Tiffany Angers Rich Clients Who Wanted to Buy Rare Patek Watch
Tiffany salespeople called them the 'watch monsters.' The obsessives. The wealthy shoppers who were sure they should be among the chosen few to get their hands on a rare timepiece from Patek Philippe. They descended on Tiffany & Co. a few years ago, when the retailer began offering a limited edition Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711 with a dial in the jeweler's signature robin's-egg blue. Patek crafted 170 of them, a tribute to the number of years the brands had worked together. Tiffany's hope was that the buzzy timepiece would help attract – and retain – high-end shoppers who weren't already regular customers.

Photos Reveal Sunken Warship Discovered Half a Mile Deep After 83 Years
Two researchers who helped discover an over 80-year-old Japanese warship say the experience was thrilling and galvanized two countries decades after World War II. On July 12, a team aboard the Ocean Exploration Trust's Exploration Vessel (E/V) Nautiluslocated the Imperial Japanese Navy destroyerTeruzuki on the seafloor of Iron Bottom Sound, in a stretch of water at the southern end known as The Slot between Guadalcanal, Savo Island, and Florida Island of the Solomon Islands. Teruzuki-meaning "Shining Moon" or "Illuminated Moon"-was a 134-meter Akizuki-class destroyer commissioned in 1942 and built to defend aircraft carriers from aerial attack. The destroyer, serving as a flagship to tactician Rear Admiral Raizō Tanaka, was lost during surface combat operations in the Guadalcanal campaign. On December 12, 1942, Teruzuki was struck by two American Mk-8 torpedoes near Cape Esperance, disabling the rudder and igniting fires. Tanaka and most of the crew survived; however, nine sailors were killed before the ship ultimately sank. Researchers deem the vessel's sinking and discovery as a significant moment in maritime archaeology and World War II history. The wreck was found at a depth exceeding 800 meters, akin to approximately a half-mile or 2,625 feet, by using cutting-edge seafloor mapping and remotely operated vehicle (ROV) technology. The target was initially identified by the University of New Hampshire's uncrewed surface vessel (USV) DriX, then visually confirmed by ROVs launched from E/V Nautilus. Dr. Larry Miller, director of the Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping at the University of New Hampshire who is onboard leading the team conducting the uncrewed surface vehicle mapping, told Newsweek that during an exclusive interview on Tuesday that the crew came out to the area with some type of knowledge of the position of 10 to 15 of the wrecks that had been found before and surveyed before. They knew there were "many, many more," as many as 100 wrecks on the bottom. He explained how the Nautilus with the ROV can go down to a known target and get spectacular imagery, while at the same time, the DriX has a higher resolution sonar on it and independently maps many areas of Iron Bottom Sound that are verified by researchers. "So, we see what a known target looks like," Miller said. "We came first day and saw what a cruiser looked like from the DriX. And from that, keep it mapping, keep it mapping. "We have a series of now potential targets, and the Teruzuki was one of those targets that we had identified from the DriX. We didn't know what it was. It hadn't been identified before." The discovery also included a self-admitted "accidental find." After they finished surveying the vessel's main body, they moved away and, about 200 meters away from the main body, found the Teruzuki stern-which Miller called "super exciting." Teruzuki's discovery was extra special for Hiroshi Ishii, a Nautilus science team member and program-specific researcher at the Center for Southeast Asian Area Studies at Kyoto University. He confirmed the destroyer's identification. He told Newsweek that he and others onboard were unsure whether the "massive" structure they found was an American ship, Japanese, or even Australian. "As a Japanese person, I appreciate that someone cares about this shared history between the U.S. and Japan," Ishii said. "Also, as a Japanese person, we don't know much about this battle. "I'm an archaeologist, so I know much, much more and focus on this part of the history, but in general, most of the Japanese know about the canal but don't know much about the naval battle in general." Miller said the discovery has brought "great excitement to our Japanese colleagues," with Ishii adding that historical tenets related to Teruzuki were essentially nonexistent. This is the first crew to knowingly find this vessel in over 80 years. "I feel like this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," Ishii said. "This is a big team effort and I'm just lucky to be here and to identify this." Phil Hartmeyer, marine archaeologist for NOAA Ocean Exploration, in a statement: "The discovery of Rear Admiral Tanaka's flagship Teruzuki was made by a multidisciplinary, international team who together documented its remains, uncovering Teruzuki's significance to former combatant, and now allied, nations. Only by exploring our planet's unknown waters can these significant stories of sacrifice and human connection to our ocean be brought to light." Miller said that mapping in the region will continue, in part as a very exciting scientific program going on with another vessel that's using a higher resolution sonar to map a coral reef to formulate three-dimensional reconstructions of the reef structure. That continues until July 23 before new crews take to the seas for other similar missions in different regions.
