Blue Lagoon: The Awakening Page #4

They'd have to be, right?

You think they quit?

Would you?

I mean, you keep looking

for something, at some point,

you figure it's gone, right?

Why do you do this?

Watch the sunset every day?

Looking for something.

What?

Nothing. It's stupid.

Zippo's dead.

We're gonna have to learn

to make our own re now.

[GASPS]

What is it?

[GASPS]

Oh, my God.

How long do you think

he was there?

How long do you think

he pretended that he was

gonna make it home?

This guy is not us, Em.

He could've been

some local fisherman

or drug smuggler or anyone.

You've got people out there

who love you.

People looking for you.

And you know what else?

We got each other.

And that's something right there,

prom queen.

We're gonna be okay. You hear me?

Nothing bad's gonna happen to you.

[]

[EMMA MOANING & PANTING]

Why are you crying?

That was...

That felt so good.

You make that sound

like a bad thing.

It's just...

for a while,

I forgot where we were.

I pictured us home...

worrying about what everybody

was gonna say.

I felt so normal. Heh.

[SIGHS]

Hey, where's my latte?

[]

I'm going to the lagoon.

Dean, did you take

the big water bottle?

[RUSTLING]

Dean?

[RUSTLING AND ANIMAL SQUEALS]

Dean?

Dean?

Dean?

Why would you do that?

Do what?

Leave me there without saying

where you were going--

You were sleeping.

And I woke up and you were nowhere.

What are you doing?

He deserves to be buried.

Okay? At least have a funeral.

Dean, I don't understand. What--?

Talk to me. I'm here and--

You're here and what?

We had sex once.

We're stuck on an island.

We're not soul mates.

That's mean.

Yeah, I'm not a nice guy, Emma.

And now you know.

I don't believe that.

Whatever it is, I'll listen.

Please, just give me--

Aah!

Emma!

I'm so sorry, Em.

I didn't mean to...

It was an accident. I fell.

I don't know what I'd do

if something happened to you.

[]

What are we doing?

We're not some happy couple

on an island vacation.

How are we gonna make it

day after day, just the two of us?

What if something goes wrong?

I mean, what if l broke my leg,

or one of us gets sick

or something like that?

Nobody knows what's out there, Em.

There's stuff that

we don't know how to deal with

and we just gotta figure it out.

I didn't go to my mom's funeral.

That's why I wanted to bury

that guy. Just flesh.

Ashes to ashes.

I thought maybe seeing him

dead in the ground and all that

would make things make sense.

Did it?

Not really.

I guess that's the point.

It doesn't always makes sense.

We need hydrotherapy.

And you kind of stink,

so...

[LAUGHS]

[]

EMMA:

Step into my office and tell me

about your problems, Mr. McMullen.

I couldn't handle seeing...

Seeing all of it.

You know, the casket

and all the people pitying me.

Blaming me or--

Why would they blame you?

Because I killed her.

She was driving me home

from soccer practice.

We were driving down this

side road, and it was dark.

We used to play this game

when it was snowing

where she'd flick on the high beams,

on and off.

It'd look like we were going

into hyperspace

from a Star Wars movie

or something like that.

I reached over, trying to be funny,

trying to be like her.

Lost control of the car.

We were laughing,

and the next thing...

I was in the hospital for three days.

When I got out, she was gone.

You didn't kill her.

No.

We should maybe think

about moving here.

Nice neighborhood, and I hear

the public schools are great.

[THUNDER RUMBLING]

[THE 88'S "NO ONE HERE" PLAYING]

Throw away the paper

Throw away the mail

Be bad if you wanna

Be prepared to fail

And all the expectations

Take you to the point

Of never believing

And you're tired of me

Still nobody knows it

Something I can't be

My love

And there's no one here

Who loves you like I do

Thank God this much is real

Thank God this much is real

And broken down

A month after two students went

missing off the coast of Trinidad,

the search for Emmaline Robinson

and Dean McMullen

has been called off.

It's believed that the students

have been lost at sea.

I can't believe they're gonna

stop looking for her.

Even if it's just for her body

or something.

Wow, Helen,

that's kind of morbid.

Well, her mom's still there.

Maybe she'll find her.

I know we've been over this,

but if you'd look

at the new information

regarding weather patterns,

you'd see we've been looking

in the wrong place.

Mrs. Robinson,

I've seen this information.

Perhaps your embassy can--

I've been to the embassy twice.

[]

Excuse me,

have you seen these two?

[SOBBING]

MAN:

Sorry, folks,

no planes taking off today.

BARBARA:

They say the storm

could last for days.

Yep.

When my wife died...

I tried so hard to keep her here,

you know.

Keep her alive.

I almost lost everything I had.

Dean and I barely spoke.

I almost lost my partnership

at the rm.

I was so focused on what I'd lost,

I forgot what I had.

[THUNDER CRACKING]

Maybe it's time to go home,

Barbara.

It's not like we haven't tried.

It's a tough call.

[]

Whenever we were at the beach,

my mom used to talk

about the green ash.

My dad and I would watch

and watch.

I've never seen it.

It's supposed to be

right on the horizon line,

just the sun comes down.

I'm thinking maybe

it's just a thing...

people believe in to make them feel

like there's something out there,

you know? Beauty or whatever.

How long do you really think

we can survive here?

We're gonna be fine, okay?

[THE 88'S "ALL 'CAUSE OF YOU"

PLAYING]

[THE 88'S "ALL 'CAUSE OF YOU"

PLAYING]

I've been sinking

Through the drain of love

Lift my eyes to skies of up above

I've been moving

'Cause my heart is true

Telling everyone l know about you

Tell your mama

That you won't be home

Let your daddy know

You're not alone

All I wanna do is make you mine

I said I'd love you, honey, anytime

Don't believe the things

They say about me

And all the things you know

I'd never be

You're the only one I wanna do

Everything's new

And it's all 'cause of you

I've been sinking through

The drain of love

Lift my eyes to skies of up above

Listen to me

This is how l feel

[MOANING]

You're the only one I wanna do

Everything's new

Should we feel guilty?

For what?

Not being sad all the time.

They probably think we're dead.

But we're not dead.

So we gotta live a little, right?

I just feel like

we should be doing something,

like trying to find a way off or...

We tried.

We'll keep trying.

Have you been shaving?

What?

You have, like, almost no beard.

[CHUCKLING]

Okay, first of all, bite me.

[LAUGHING]

And second of all,

it'll get heavier,

I hope.

Was that okay?

I mean...

was I okay?

Emma, you are so much better

than okay.

Okay?

If okay is around here somewhere,

you are way over the damn palm trees.

If okay is like a little tiny grain of sand,

you're the whole beach.

If okay is like a little drop of water,

you're like

the whole freaking Caribbean.
