For Australia.

I wanted to apologize.

For everything.

I don't blame you...

For giving up on me.

No, dad, I don't

want your money.

I didn't give up on you.

I was ashamed.

Of myself.

I was never afraid to fly.

I... I just didn't

know how to do...

I didn't know how

to be your father.

I'm the one who

needs to apologize.

No.

Jack, what are

you doing out there?

I'm talking to my son!

And my grandson.

I got him on a lead,

don't worry.

Wait till you see

the screen saver.

Look at that.

Yeah.

Where'd they go, hey?

How are you doing in the deep

blue sea there, Bob?

Hey, come on.

I've got to get this bloke

Garry, a lot of notes.

Stop fishing.

Good morning, monster.

Hello, mate.

Caught any fish yet?

How is a guy who spent a third of his

life checked out to write a book?

Come on, Bob, help me out here.

I'm stuck.

Bob.

Bob!

I just loved it, every word!

Thank you.

Thank you.

James, we're about to start.

Not before you say hi

to your biggest fan.

Betty?

I'm so proud of you.

Hi.

Thanks for coming.

James.

- James.

- Oh, yeah.

Come on.

Okay.

Off you go.

Right, Bob.

Thank you.

Hey, Bob.

- Hi, dad.

- Son.

- What?

- A bit overwhelmed.

Yeah.

It's gonna survive.

I told you weren't a stray.

- Bob.

- Yeah.

Come on, Bob, high five.

Good boy.

Hi, everyone.

Didn't expect that there'd

be so many people here.

I could make,

some joke about there not being

enough room to swing a cat.

But...

I don't think Bob

would like that.

Um...

A friend helped me with this...

And... when I was stuck...

Her advice was, "start by mentioning

that everyone gets a second chance."

But... but not everyone...

Manages to take them.

Luckily for me,

I had some very

important companions,

to help with my second chance.

And then she said,

to just tell the truth.

And that's what I've done.

Absolutely loved it.

Thank you.

- A little paw print there.

- Thank you so much.

Here you go.

Enjoy that?

It's like I lived every moment.

Good, okay.

Come on, you guys.

Keep it going, it's great!

Now, you guys.

Wow, beautiful!

Let's train our faces.

C ome on, getting low.

All together!

It sounds beautiful.

Of the cat, hey.
