Then you go like this,

and the houses get smaller.

- Do you wanna go for a ride?

- Yes!

# And so I'm offering

this simple phrase

# To kids from one to 92

# Although it's been said

# Many times, many ways

# Merry Christmas

# To you #

Kenny and Tamika are playing

on the dock. Hurry, hurry, hurry!

Everybody out!

- Come on.

- Kenny, Tamika! I'm back! I'm home!

Let me help you

with the bags there, Romeo.

- You can take the heavy ones.

- Thanks, buddy.

Grandma! Grandma!

Your room's in here.

Grandma, watch me! Grandma!

Thea! Get down from there!

- Grandma, watch me!

- Get down from there!

- Mommy lets me.

- It's too dangerous! Don't do that!

- Grandma, watch me!

- Come on, sweetheart.

But you always let me.

Not today. Come on, Thea.

The other kids are.

Daddy, why can't I?

Did you hear what I said?

Come inside the house right now!

- I don't want to. I wanna swing.

- Right now you have to unpack.

I didn't mean to start all this.

I feel like such a grandma.

Come on. I'll show you around.

No! No! Put me down!

- Will you stop making a scene?

- I wanna swing!

I'll be all right, Michael.

Good. So will I.

She calls it

"Tourist on the Loose".

The local government commissioned it

for the public beach.

- You forgot about the store.

- Oh, yeah. Yeah.

We need milk, bread...

There's a big unveiling ceremony.

- We need beer!

- OK, I'll be right there!

Pretty good, huh?

Yeah.

Grandma?

'Will you stop fartin' around?

'Michael, what the hell

you doin' down there, eh? '

Jake, stop bustin' my chops.

'Listen, you remember

what they look like?

'Hard on the outside,

chewy on the inside.

'Sometimes they come

with a little grime.

'Move your ass, man! '

Ah, bingo!

Good. How many you got?

Come on, Michael, talk to me.

Give me some numbers. How many?

- 'Leave me alone.'

- You're full of sh*t.

'You been down there all day,

nothin' to show but excuses.

'Michael,

you're taggin' the damn things.'

I gotta separate the ladies

from the gentlemen first.

No, man, don't. You move too slow.

You got two speeds - slow and slower.

Hold your water, Jake.

The females have eggs.

So we're gonna stop everything

and pass out cigars?

We're being paid to see

where they go, how they propagate.

If we had decent funding, I'd study

their motor systems, temperature...

We'd do a decent report for a change

and really give them something.

If you'd leave me alone,

I'd be able to do my work.

I know how to tag a damn conch.

- Your readings suck, man.

- The tags suck.

- No, it's I that made them.

- It's I that put 'em on.

- You put 'em on wrong.

- No, no, no! They leak!

A blind man could find more conch!

You can't find your ass

with both hands!

That's not fair! You go away, come

back a zombie, it's Christmas Eve.

- We're working overtime cos of YOU!

- Hey!

I'm sorry about your brother, man.

Well, just...

just take it easy, will ya?

Jake.

C'mon, Jake, don't...

I don't want...

- Oh! Put me down.

- I missed you, man!

And then he wrote dirty words

all over the garage.

He was... your daddy was five.

He was your age.

- I'm almost six.

- So is Jake.

Oh, look at that face.

OK, do the other one.

Now that's closer to the real truth.

Oh, you. This guy was always

getting into some sort of mischief.

I got no doubt about that.

Was Uncle Sean ever bad?

Did you ever spank him?

Sharp shirt, Jake.

Hey, may your sex life

be as busy as your shirt.

Why, thank you.

My tea set! I got my tea set!

Oh, let me see!

Every lovely lady

should have a tea set.

It has a teapot

and cups and saucers.

And a sugar bowl

and a creamer.

Can I put real tea in it?

Yes, real tea.

Can I make sandwiches?

Yes.

Thea, we forgot

the Christmas carols.

Carol from the grocery store?

Oh, will you stop it?

I miss him, Mom.

- I want you to change your work.

- Mom, please don't start that.

- You could teach or write...

- I'm not gonna quit now.

You're all I have left. I don't want

you working in the water.

Mom, what I do is perfectly safe.

At the moment,

we're collecting big snails.

Jake and I are scientists.

We're almost PhDs.

We know what we're doing.

There's nothing to worry about.

Oh, great.

And, well, we have to dig

the ditch really deep...

so the water'll go all the way

around and we can swim in it.

You're silly.

You know what? Let's pretend

this is Buckingham Palace.

And you'll be Princess Di,

and we'll have a parade with horses.

And you'll ride in a golden carriage,

and we'll...

And I can invite

Cinderella to the ball.

She'll come

in a golden carriage, too.

And we can have

cookies and punch and cake.

And I can invite

Prince Charlie and...

What's the name

of the other prince?

Grandma? Grandma?

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Oh, we better get this done

before the tide comes in.

It's not nice to be evasive.

My mother says that

to my father all the time.

Hello, you two!

Hello.

I don't know why I fish here.

I never catch anything.

There must be a sign underwater -

"beware, Hoagie's about".

- You drive the plane.

- Flies the plane.

Mostly, it's like driving.

What's that, an excavation?

We're building a sand castle,

and you're invited for tea.

You know why you got

no ambition?

- Why is that, Jake?

- Your Norman Rockwell life.

Norman Rockwell?

That's precisely

your problem, my friend.

You weren't exactly a deprived kid.

I don't buy that

roots-rock-reggae bullshit.

Cut that hair,

you're a three-piece suit.

The bottom line is we got three

months left of work and no money.

Spent it all on beer.

Bahamian Fisheries Department

is not exactly Fort Knox, my friend.

But, on the other hand,

Office of Naval Research,

they've got money.

No. Forget it.

What do you mean? Money is money.

- They put bombs on dolphins.

- What you talking about?

I know a guy who got money

from them to study eels.

It's hard to put a bomb

on an eel!

Who rattled your cage? Michael, man!

We're bustin' our bunghies

to get our degrees.

I'm tired of all this paradise sh*t.

It's getting on my last nerve, man.

William. Look at you, boy.

- What?

- A mental midget reading all day.

If mediocrity were fattening,

you'd all be whales.

Knock off that drummin'!

Look at you, boy.

What's wrong with you?

You think because you been to

university you're smart?

I don't know

why I've told you all this.

Sometimes talking

to a stranger is easier.

I can't explain it.

It's just something I feel.

I always listen to my feelings.

I think I'm going crazy.

Nightmares and...

Maybe it was an accident.

It was no accident.

I'm not saying you're wrong.

I'm just saying that maybe

there are other possibilities.

When it killed Sean, I knew

with certainty it had come for him.

I knew that!

I know it's coming.

I know it's coming.

What's it cost to ride on that plane?

The water's coming in!

The water's coming in!

Depends on where you want to go.

- Doesn't matter.

- Hurry!

- Just like that?

- Just like that.
