Blue Lagoon: The Awakening Page #3

Come on. Take a picture.

We're already in enough trouble.

You know they grade this trip.

I cannot mess with my GPA.

Hello? Do you know

how unique this is?

Okay.

What's your number-one school?

Princeton. Why?

You know how many people

applying to Princeton have a 4.0?

A lot.

You know how many people

have been swimming in this?

Think of the essay

you could write.

Come on.

We gotta find a hotel.

So lame. Fine.

See, this is why I don't hang out

with people.

EMMA:

I can't wait until we get

to a real bathroom.

DEAN:

I can't wait for a coffee.

[]

EMMA:

Where are we?

We've been walking for hours.

And we haven't seen

a single road, person.

DEAN:

We better get back to the boat.

Come on,

it's gonna be a long walk.

What if we have to spend

the night on this island?

I don't think we're going to find

a five-star hotel around here.

Do you know how to make a fire?

I do.

Ta-da!

Perfect.

What?

EMMA:

A cave?

I am not sleeping in a cave.

It's the safest place to be.

Dry if it rains, only one way in.

Protection from the elements.

Hey, can I use your phone?

Sure. There's no signal.

I'm not a cave person.

None of us are cave persons.

We haven't been cave people

for a long...

[BATS SQUEALING

AND BOTH SCREAMING]

DEAN:

Go, go, go!

EMMA:

Aah!

So that's a no on the cave.

Where's the boat?

[]

[]

I'm really tired.

Can we take a break soon?

Sure.

Thanks.

[]

EMMA:

You see something?

No.

EMMA:

Use the are gun.

You need at least two flares.

l saw it in a book.

I think it was the one with the girl who

sails around the world with her cat.

You fire two flares,

one to get their attention

and the other

so they can locate you.

Who's "they"?

The people that are gonna

come get us, I guess.

Our families and the police

or whoever.

Dean,

what are you doing?

[SIGHS]

What was that about?

Hey, can I borrow

some of that bug stuff?

Sure.

Thanks.

You want a pillow?

Heh. Thanks.

Wait a sec.

What?

Aha.

Damn, you should be

on that Price Is Right show.

I knew it was in here.

I put it in there in case I got hungry

when we were building yesterday.

Thanks.

And I think you meant

Let's Make a Deal.

Hm?

Oh.

Right.

That show.

Heh, heh, heh.

Here's some more.

Thanks.

WOMAN [OVER PA]:

Flight 415 from Detroit to Miami,

scheduled to depart at 11 p.m.,

is now expected to depart

at 12:
10 a.m. from Gate 211.

We're gonna get there.

[SIGHS]

Why do you call me "prom queen"?

Aren't you?

No.

You seem like you should be.

Perfect girl, perfect world.

I can't tell if you're being

mean or nice.

[TWIG SNAPS]

What do you think is

out there? In the woods.

We're gonna be fine.

I know.

Still can't get a signal.

Here.

[MUSIC PLAYING ON PHONE]

What are you doing?

You're gonna waste the battery.

Just playing some music.

[MUSIC STOPS]

[SIGHS]

Here.

Take my shirt.

Thank you.

Sure.

[SIGHS]

[]

Night.

Night.

They'll come for us. I know it.

[RUSTLING

AND ANIMAL SQUEALS]

What was that?

[]

Ahh...

[]

DEAN:

Hey.

You're a morning person, huh?

What are you doing?

I'm trying to save us.

What are you doing?

I don't know. Might go for a swim.

Hey, where's your phone?

Battery's dead.

We need some more water.

Yah!

[]

The police have a boat

searching the area where

they picked up the kids.

As soon as they come back--

When will they be back?

Uh, I'm not sure.

They said they'd let us know when--

JACK:
Any word?

I was just telling Barbara the police

have a boat searching the Caribbean.

They did say

that a dinghy was missing.

How long they been looking?

What about a helicopter?

As soon as the winds die down,

they're gonna send someone up.

Have they been searching land?

Have you contacted the embassy?

Is there a private team we can hire?

The police are doing everything

that they can

with the limited resources

that they have.

There is no private rescue team.

But they did say

they were very confident

they're going to find

Dean and Emma.

The first 48 hours

is the most important.

But the chief said that kids do this.

If I hear one more time--

Are you kidding me?

It's been two days.

What are these people doing?

Except offering anecdotal crap

about other teenagers. Huh?

All right, look, I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry.

Help us find our children.

[TWIG SNAPS]

DEAN:

The hut's gonna be something

in case it rains.

EMMA:

Rain?

DEAN:

You never know.

Ah! Ow!

You okay? Come here.

This may sting a little.

Does that hurt?

Here, keep the pressure on it.

[GRUNTS]

So why Princeton?

Hm?

Why do you wanna go to Princeton?

I don't know.

It's Ivy League.

Yeah.

It's just where we talked

about me going.

It's kind of weird, right?

It's always been

where I wanted to go.

Where I was supposed to go.

I don't think

I ever even questioned it.

Heh. Mm.

Yeah.

They're not gonna give up.

No, they'll come, for you.

Thanks, guys.

COP:

Prepare to board

in five minutes.

I'm sorry.

STACEY:

Did you find her?

Not yet, but we will.

Yeah, we're gonna

go back out tomorrow.

Sweetie, your mom and I are gonna

need to stay a few more days.

Is that okay?

Sure. Stay however long you need.

[]

There we go.

That should hold

for a bit.

Seriously?

[LAUGHS]

[]

Okay, now it's good.

Celebration swim?

Come on.

Come on, it's like a million degrees.

We earned it.

[]

Argh! I cannot eat

any more fruit!

[]

Hey, prom queen!

Don't look.

I was just gonna ask if you

had any more sunscreen left.

I don't have any more

anything left. Look yourself.

The bottles are in the baggies

in the hut.

I looked for them, didn't see any.

They're there, but they're empty.

I'm sure there's aloe somewhere.

Now turn around and stop looking.

You know that every time you say that,

it reminds me I should be looking?

I'm serious.

You're the one

who asked me to stand guard.

There's something out there.

I can hear it at night.

This afternoon,

according to officials,

the investigation

has been downgraded

from a search-and-rescue

to a search-and-recovery effort

as hope of finding the pair alive

has faded.

I want you to call me every day.

Sometimes twice a day if you can.

I will, I promise.

I just hate the idea

of leaving you alone down here.

I'll be ne.

You've gotta go back.

Stacey needs one of us there,

especially now.

No, I know. You're right.

Well, it's official.

They called off

the rescue search.

See what this is?

They don't have the resources.

That's what it is.

--for the families

and the students back home

who have kept constant...

I'm not gonna stop, Phil.

I promise,

I'll bring her back home.

I know you will.

I know you will.

Jack, thank you for hiring this.

PILOT:

We'll keep covering these waters.

We still have two hours

of flying time.

[LIGHTER FLICKING]

I miss my mom and dad.

I even miss my little sister.

And my sh.

The smell of my sheets

when they first get out of the dryer.

I'll bet they're still looking for us.
