you like them damn snails?

All right, all right,

I'll make you a deal. Listen.

We study that shark,

just for a few days,

and it's back

to your lovely snails.

Now that's fair, man. That's fair.

Come on, indulge me with it, eh?

I don't know sh*t about electronics.

Boy, you don't know sh*t

about anything.

It's time you learned.

I'll teach you how to wear your hair,

how to dance.

How to box. Come on, follow me.

Get your butt down here, man.

This is the third time

you've forgotten to take it out.

- I got a lot on my mind.

- You can't remember when they come?

My brain is shrinking...

Don't give me that

preoccupied scientist crap.

I'm getting ready

for a big event!

I thought artists worked

with their subconscious.

How come it's my responsibility?

Because.

Oh. OK, now I understand.

All you had to do was explain it.

I take out the garbage... because.

I'm glad we

got that straightened out.

We don't have anything

straightened out.

You're uptight about something.

What's wrong?

Why should there be anything wrong?

I'm enjoying my day off,

my wife starts yelling at me

about the garbage.

What are we arguing about?

I don't know. I...

I don't know.

Hey.

- No fair, I'm not armed.

- Then don't come any closer.

- Turn it off. Off.

- No. I have work.

I've always wanted to make love

to an angry welder.

I've dreamed of nothing else

since I was a small boy.

- Shut the door.

- Uh-huh. Later.

- Mmm! Mmm!

- Michael!

Shut the door!

You sure you've

done this before?

Oh, yeah. Lots of times.

Trust your Uncle Jake, eh?

It's always worked, huh?

Well, uh... thus far.

OK, take me out.

Little more.

There it is! Comin'! It's comin'!

- You remember how to pull rope, eh?

- Yeah.

Yes! You got him, man!

Ah! Now would be a good time!

Did you see that, man?

Let's try to follow it.

Now we're gonna see if Uncle Jake's

equipment's really working for us.

Michael!

- Our little island agrees with you.

- I have my own little island.

But it's so cold in the winter.

I tried winter once.

Here we are. Burlington, Vermont.

I flew a run to New York. Oh!

I have a bone in my left foot

that hasn't thawed yet.

- When I was a small boy...

- Not hard to imagine, by the way.

...I dreamed of always being warm.

What do you want?

Whatever we had last time.

Two Bahama Mamas, please.

- Stay. I'll take time off.

- You always take time off.

I like to travel.

I'll nick the plane again.

- Won't you get in trouble?

- Not if he doesn't find out.

It's just a hop down to the

Caribbean. We'll spend a few days.

There must be a lot of ladies

who'd be glad to go.

Yeah, there are, but...

I've grown tired

of one-way conversations.

I have an irresistible

urge to kiss you, Ellen Brody.

Why?

Because it would not

occur to you why.

Blushing suits you.

- Lord... I'm sorry.

- It's nothing to be sorry about.

No, this whole thing...

The whole idea is preposterous.

I don't think so.

- You sure you don't need glasses?

- I'm a pilot.

My vision is perfect.

What are we getting?

Nine knots.

Sh*t! We should be keeping up.

- You sure the throttle's open?

- Wide open.

Come on, you overgrown goldfish!

Come to Uncle Jake.

- How long have you known Hoagie?

- What?

How long have you known Hoagie?

- What's he got to do with it?

- How long?

Since he got here.

Bring it to starboard!

When did he get here?

- Who?

- Hoagie!

Christ!

One day he was just here, that's all.

What do you know about him?

He's after my mother.

- What's so funny?

- He's not good enough for her, eh?

I agree. I'd send her home right now.

Bring her about,

we're going the wrong way.

I mean, some of these pilots

are flying drugs down here.

- He's always going off somewhere.

- Bring her about, now!

- I am!

- Hurry, man, we're losin' him!

- You must know something.

- Christ!

He likes gambling,

he likes women, don't bother me!

- He flies charter...

- Damn! We lost him!

Maybe your gear crapped out.

Maybe you crapped out,

flappin' your lips about Hoagie.

Maybe he's gone.

All right, Mr Fish.

We'll come back and find you

tomorrow.

All he did was kiss me!

- Well, that's a beginning.

- A beginning of what?

To whatever happens next.

Oh.

I used to think I could handle these

situations once I was grown up,

but I don't even know

if he's serious.

Mmm, give it some time, Ellen.

See what happens.

Well, part of me wanted to

go off with him.

I couldn't.

I don't know why he wants me.

Maybe he's got good taste.

He hasn't spent

much time with a woman like you.

I don't know what he thinks.

Or what I think. This is so silly!

I feel too old to be in this thing.

I hope not. I am counting on

a long, happy sex life.

You said it wasn't polite

to interrupt people.

Yes, I did.

- It's time for tea, Grandma.

- Oh, I almost forgot.

I didn't.

I put everything in my room.

My teddy bear's joining us.

Michael?

Michael, what is it?

Nothing, just a stupid dream.

Hmm.

Time for bed, peanut.

- Oh, no!

- Yep. Daddy's got homework.

- But you let me last night.

- Yeah, yeah.

Mommy's waiting to read a story.

- Good night, sweetheart!

- Good night.

Night. Let's put up our feet

and shoot the breeze,

or whatever it is beer drinkers do.

I, uh, I got to put

together this report, Ma.

Jake says don't do today

what you can put off tomorrow.

Yeah, Jake's got a lot of those.

I'm leaving in a few days.

I don't want to go with you unhappy.

I'm not unhappy.

I saw you and Thea.

You looked just like your father.

Do you remember when

you guys used to imitate him?

Mom, I gotta get this finished, OK?

- I worry about you.

- There's nothing to worry about.

I'm your mother. It's my job.

Just cos you're a man

doesn't mean I've retired.

I've worked on MY smile.

It's... it's your turn.

That's better.

'Blump, blump! Blump, blump!

- 'Blump, blump! Blump, blump! '

- Jake, knock it off!

Blump, blump. OK,

just don't try to renege on our deal.

Half a day on the snails,

then a half a day on the shark.

You got 17 more minutes, then we're

gonna go look for that shark.

It's a big ocean. We could

spend the rest of our lives looking.

'We're gonna find him.'

'I got about a half a dozen.

I'll tag 'em and be right up.

'You, uh, hearin' anything? '

Nothin' at all. Just another cool,

calm, tickly day in the Bahamas.

Just stay within a quarter mile.

I got a three-mile monitor radius.

Within three miles, there's plenty of

time to beam your ugly ass up.

Michael, I got him.

'He's comin' towards you.

You better get out now.'

All right, I'm comin', I'm comin'.

Sh*t!

Jake!

Jake!

Michael! Michael!

'Michael! '

Michael, what's goin' on?

Michael, can you hear me?

'Michael! Michael, can you hear me? '

Michael!

Son of a b*tch! Oh, sh*t!

Jesus Christ!

Ah!

Uh!

It's over there!

Sh*t! Get the bang sticks,

we're goin' down.

- They're no good.

- Get another one!

Come on, come on! Michael!

- Get him up! Watch his arm!

- Lay him down gently!
