Blue Crush 2 Page #2

For starters, she's a professional athlete.

She's the number one on the Roxy team,

and she doesn't let anyone forget it.

I thought I said something about "don't come back."

Yet here you are again, like a bad memory.

It's not just your house, Tara.

No, but there's a pecking order, just like the line-up.

Yeah, well, your pecking order doesn't work for me.

(SIREN WAILS)

Cops are back. You know what to do.

Not again. We'll take this up later.

(WHISTLES)

Come on. TARA:
Let's go!

Come on.

By order of the eThekwini Metropolitan Municipality,

this property is condemned

and must be vacated immediately.

DANA:
Care to fill me in?

They want us out of here.

We're a nuisance.

They really want to tear the place down.

This is your final warning.

This structure will be demolished in one week.

By order of the court, this is your final warning.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Piss balloons. Oh!

Disgusting!

This is your last warning. You

have one week to get out.

(ALL CHEERING)

PUSHY:
Come on, I'll introduce you to the family.

We laid claim to this beach years ago.

At first it was just a couple of

tents and some surf boards.

Now it's a self-sustaining community.

Really, it's just a bunch of friends who are serious

about goofing off and riding waves.

Welcome. DANA:
I like your family.

Best people in the world. I met them all through Tim.

Hey!

Whoa!

Speak of the devil.

Timothy, say hi to Dana.

Hey. Hi.

You from LA?

Yeah. I got in today.

You staying?

I don't know.

That means you're staying.

Okay, Pushy, let's show her the best part.

(SLOW SONG PLAYING)

You all right?

My humble abode.

Cool. Does it run?

If I have my way, it will. Someday.

That's lots of elephants.

Yeah, I volunteer at the nature reserve.

In between being one of the

best board shapers around.

And our go-to fix-it man. Hence the mess.

But I can move some of this stuff

if you need a place to stay.

Nice try! She's staying with me.

Come on.

Careful, Dana, you've seen how we

deal with blow-ins around here.

She's staying with me, Tara.

Just stay out of my way.

My pleasure.

So, it's not the Hilton, but it's not so bad.

Yeah, I could hang with this for a while.

Ha!

I see Laura and Sally, all the top Roxy riders,

but I don't see Tara.

I must have missed her somehow.

Uh-huh. (LAUGHS)

Girl has it made, hey?

Travel the world, surf killer waves all day,

pose for the cameras and get paid for it.

Why don't you try out for the team? I did.

Didn't make the cut.

Why? You can rip, I saw you.

Or... Or?

Or Tara screwed me over.

Wow. Well, I wouldn't put it past her.

Yeah, one big, happy family.

That's what we are.

You jet-lagged?

Maybe a little.

Dana?

Dana!

(GASPS)

(PEOPLE SHOUTING IN THE DISTANCE)

(REGGAE MUSIC PLAYING)

Hey, sister!

Okay, be cool.

I am cool.

No, be cool.

(LAUGHS) Okay.

Look, it's a zombie.

Night of the living Dana.

Food. Give me food.

Voil. Whoo!

Oh, my God. That's, like, the best fish I've ever had.

Well, that's good, 'cause it's

the main course tomorrow.

And the next night. And breakfast.

(ALL LAUGHING)

Nice.

(HONKING)

Hey. Grant. Hey.

Hey, Sugaree.

I don't believe it.

PUSHY:
You know Grant?

I met him on the plane, briefly.

Fifty bucks says he was flying first class.

How do you know?

Grant's the only one that can afford a truck like that.

I wish I had one.

TIM:
Trust me, you don't want to get mixed up in that.

Come on, I'll show you the giant sea turtles.

They lay their eggs just up the beach.

California girl!

I had a feeling you'd show up before long.

Small world, huh?

Yeah. Pushy brought me here.

Oh, Pushy.

(EXCLAIMS)

Bro.

I owe you one. I do, I do.

So, California girl, are you gonna

show us what you got?

I don't know. Come on.

You feel the groove.

Come on. Come on.

Can you hold this?

(BOTH LAUGH)

"Let me show you the giant sea turtles"? Seriously?

Shut up.

(CAPTIVATING DRUM BEAT PLAYING)

(WHOOPING)

California girl can dance.

(PEOPLE WHOOPING)

(DRUM BEAT INTENSIFIES)

(MONKEY CHITTERS)

Pushy?

(LAUGHS)

See ya.

Morning, California girl!

Hey.

Jet-lagged?

I'm here, aren't I?

Can't believe those two are friends.

They seem so different.

The love of the ocean brings different spirits together.

(QUACKING)

I think they might both love something else, too.

I'm not going there.

Oh, yeah?

Think I might have seen your lips go there last night.

(LAUGHS)

Maybe a little tongue, too. Right.

Go ahead, girl. You got this. Show 'em what you got.

I'm all over it.

GRANT:
Go for it, California girl!

PUSHY:
Whoo!

Go, girl!

(UPBEAT POP SONG PLAYING)

Keep up, old man. I'm trying!

COWBOY:
Go get 'em, Tim.

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

Yeah!

Whoo!

(SHRIEKS)

PUSHY:
You don't remember her at all?

Just a few blurry images. You know, like in a dream.

Her name was Catherine.

I was five years old.

TIM:
Those are all you have left?

And there was another keepsake of hers,

but it got stolen with my stuff.

She always wanted to show me her homeland.

(GRANT CHUCKLES)

Your mom was a hottie!

(PUSHY SCOFFS)

Well, like mother like daughter.

Oh!

Yes. Check it, bro.

Classic Supertubes. And not a soul out.

When was the last time you saw J-bay like that?

Never. Never.

DANA:
She wrote about Jeffrey's

Bay a lot in her journal.

Like it was someplace sacred.

Sacred's the word. Finest point break in the world.

My old stomping grounds.

Oh! When J-bay fires on all cylinders...

And the tubes are grinding from the Boneyards,

through Impossibles right down to The Point...

The holy grail of right-handers.

The holy grail.

She said it was the one place that

she had to surf before she died.

But she never did.

No. TIM:
Probably couldn't.

But I will.

I'm gonna surf it for her.

You know what else?

I'm going to go to every one of

those places in those photos.

Do you know what, Dana? You're on Uhambo.

That's what we call it in South Africa.

It's like when someone's looking for...

What?

I don't know. My mom, I guess.

TIM:
Or maybe yourself.

In Australia they call it a walkabout.

In the Holy Land, a pilgrimage.

What do you call it in America?

Um...

A journey? Boring.

Don't like it. Don't like it.

An odyssey?

Yes. GRANT:
I like that.

An odyssey.

TARA:
I call it a pipe dream.

You think it's still Endless Summer out there?

It's a long, hard trip down the Wild

Coast before you get to J-bay.

Not to mention winter's coming.

Do you even have a wetsuit?

Then it's sharks in the ocean,

locals who demand total respect,

and a heavy, heavy wave.

Beverly Hills girl here wouldn't last a day on her own.

Who says she's on her own, Tara?

Dana, you and I are going on this odyssey together.

(CHUCKLES) That's good, the blind leading the blind.

I say they pull it off.

Hundred bucks says they don't. And I want evidence.

Pictures of you at all those places. And surfing them.

Of course. You're on.

TARA:
She'll never surf J-bay.

GRANT:
I could lend you my truck.

DANA:
Really?

At a price. You ever waited tables?
