You Like Mark

For The Same Reasons

Your Mom Does.

I'm Sure

He's A Great Guy,

And Your Dad Was

A Great Guy, Tommy...

But Nobody Is Ever Gonna

Take The Place Of Your Dad.

Don't You Punish

Yourself, Ok?

He Wouldn't Want You To.

Come Here.

[Sighs]

I Promise

You Something.

We Are Getting Off

This Island...Ok?

We Have To...

'Cause I Still

Gotta Get A Job

When We Get Home.

You Guys

Know How To Sew?

I'll Tell Ya,

That Is One Expensive Sail.

Now All We Need

Is A Mast And A Rudder.

Come On, Guys.

So...

You Know, There's

Only About, Uh,

4,000 Trees

On This Island.

We Had To Climb

To The Top Of

Mount Everest Here

To Find

The Perfect One?

I Told Ya.

We Need One That Stood Up

Against The Elements.

Makes 'Em Hard

And Sturdy Up Here, Boy.

This One's

Been Through A Lot.

And Now We're Gonna

Have To Carry It

All The Way Back

Down To The Beach.

Jake:
We Could

Swim It Back.

Yeah, Right.

Aw, Come On.

It's Less Than

100 Feet.

People Jump From Heights

Way Taller Than That.

I Think That's

True, Michael.

All Right. Well,

Let's See You

Do It, Then.

Well, Sure, But You're

Gonna Have To Go First.

Huh. And Why Is That?

'Cause I Don't Think

You'll Do It,

And I'm Not About To Climb

All The Way Back Up Here

Just To Grab The Mast

And Carry It

All The Way Back Down.

Let's Just Forget

About It, Guys.

I'll Do It.

So Do It.

Trust Me.

No, I'm Not

Gonna Do It...

'Cause I Got Nothing

To Prove To You.

And I'm Not Letting

Tommy Do It, Either.

Sure.

Ok, Well, Let's Go.

Let's Get This Tree Down.

Time To Make A Mast.

I'm The Kind Of Guy

Who Likes

To Kick Off His Shoes

And I'm The Kind Of Guy

That Likes

To Have Nothing To Do

So I Have

The Kind Of Life

They Say Is Simple

And Smooth

But I Can Feel

The Change Comin'

Ever Since I Met You

'Cause You Know

Get Up, Get Up, Get Up

I Asked Her Why

She Said, "Let's Get Out,

Get Out, Get Out"

She Said

That Having Some

Fun, Fun, Fun...

[Both Laughing]

So Baby Won't You Just

Come On,

Come On, Come On

You Lead The Way

In This Game

So Long,

So Long, So Long

But I Know

With You I'll Have

Fun, Fun, Fun

'Cause That's

What It's All About

Fun, Fun, Fun

[Airplane Approaching]

Tommy, You Hear That?

Yeah. I Do. Yeah.

It's A Plane!

It's A Plane.

It's A Plane!

Hey!

Hey, Hey!

Hey! The Flare!

Hurry, Michael, Go!

Go. Hey!

It's A Plane!

Hey! Down Here!

Down Here! Hey!

What's Going On?

There's A Plane. Hey!

They Can't See Us Here.

What?

They Can't See Us.

Look!

Bull's-Eye.

Too Easy.

Whoo!

No!

What Are You Doing?

Oh, No! You Idiot!

It's A Commercial Jet

Flying At 35,000 Feet!

Oh, We Needed That For

When We Went Out To Sea.

Maybe A Freighter

Would Have Seen It.

Now, It'll Just Be

Blind Luck If

Somebody Sees Us.

Well, Maybe You Should

Have Put The Flare Manual

Out On The Reading Table--

Don't Blame Me

For Your Ignorance!

You Know, He Was

Just Trying To Help.

No, No, You Know What?

This Guy's Pathetic.

All Right? Pathetic.

He Knows Nothing

About Anything.

I Mean, You Want To Wear

A Captain's Hat?

First, Learn How

To Run A Boat.

Top To Bottom,

Inside And Out,

Everything About It.

You Have To Work For It--

Hard.

You Know, This Is Just

Great Coming From A Guy

Who Sank His Own Boat.

You Know What? Stop It.

That Boat Is Full

Of Sweat And Memories

That I've Worked For

My Entire Life.

What Have You

Ever Worked For?

Come On, Michael,

Tell Me.

What Have You

Ever Worked For?

Come On, Jake.

Stop It.

Tell Me, Michael.

That's Just

What I Thought.

Michael:
You're Right.

I've Never Worked

For Anything.

Is That What You

Want To Hear?

I'm 23 Years Old,

And I Don't Know

What I'm Good At.

I Wish I Was More

Like You Two Guys.

You Know, The Way Tommy

Is With His Ranch,

And You Are

With Your Boat.

You Both Have

Found Something.

I Never Had To.

Well, All Right, Then.

Listen, I'm Sorry

I Blew Off

So Much Steam

Back There.

Hey, We're All Ready

To Get Off This Island.

Yeah, That's For Sure.

Well...

I'll Rig This Vine,

And We'll Be Out Of

Here In The Morning.

Hey, Jake. Look.

Hey!

Hey!

[Whistling]

You Hear That?

Hey!

Hey! Hey!

Unh!

Shh.

It Sounded

Like A Bird.

No, No, No.

That Was No Bird.

Jake:
You See...

It's The Pirates.

Look. See The Boat?

If They Find Our Raft,

We're In Trouble, Man.

Let's Go. Go.

Listen...

Take The Inflatable

And Circle The Island.

I'll Check Things

Out Here.

All Right.

Whoo! Got You, Sucker!

Whoo! I Got One!

Get To The Raft!

Get To The Raft!

Whoo-Hoo! Whoo!

Get To The Raft!

Why?

Whoo-Hoo-Hoo!

You See This Thing?

Get To The Raft.

Get On!

What?

They Found Us.

The Pirates

Are Coming.

Pirates? What--

What About The Camp?

Forget The Camp.

We Don't Have

Enough Time.

All Right.

Tommy, Michael,

Now. Get On!

Ok.

Be Careful.

Jake:
Drop The Sail!

Hold On!

Hold On.

Get That Life Jacket

Strapped On.

All Right.

Ok.

All Right, Guys.

Ok, Here Comes One.

Hold On.

Wait, I'll Come

Over Here.

I'll Come Over.

All Right, Hold On.

Tommy, Michael.

Oh, They're Leaving.

What Are We Gonna Do?

I Don't Know.

Can't You Go

Any Faster?

No!

[All Shouting]

What Are You Doing?

Duck.

She's Gonna Shoot Us!

Get Off! Get Off The Boat!

Jump Off The Boat!

Go, Go, Go!

Good Shot.

Tommy!

Come Here.

We'll Swim Underwater

To The Lobster Cave.

It's Right Over There.

I Gotta Get

This Vest Off.

Michael!

I Can't Get

The Vest Off!

We Don't

Have Time!

It's You

They Want!

There's No Way!

Listen, I Know You'll Come

Back For Me, All Right?

Just Go, Please, Go.

Tommy, We'll

Come Back.

Just Go, Michael.

I'll Come

Back For You.

I'll Come

Back For You!

All Right!

Swim.

Unh! Frakes Is

Gonna Be Mad.

Tommy:
You'll

Never Get Him.

Shut Up, Kid.

Go Down And Have

A Look. They Gotta

Be Here Somewhere.

[Coughing]

So What Are

We Gonna Do Now?

I Don't Know.

But I Know They're

Not Going Anywhere

Without You.

So You're Telling Me

They're Dead?

They Didn't Come Up,

And We Looked For Them.

We Waited There

Almost An Hour.

I Don't Know, Frakes.

What Do You Reckon?

How About A Cave?

The Reefs

Are Full Of Them.

They'll Be Back.

What Makes You

Think So?

When They Hear You

Screaming In Pain,

They'll Come Running.

Trust Me.

Any Ideas?

Yeah.

You Still Got

That Gold Coin?

[All Laughing]

Gonna Clean All

The Scum Off That Deck,

Aren't You, Boy?

How Do You Know

He'll Go For It?

Because I Know A Lot

Of Greedy People.

I Just Hope It Works.

You Gotta

Promise Me Something.

You Have To

Promise Me

That If Something

Goes Wrong,

You Take Tommy And You

Get Him Out Of Here.

Don't Wait For Me.

I Promise.

I'm Sorry

About Your Boat.

Ah...

I Hated That Boat.

You Hated That Boat?

Yeah.

I Thought It Was

Your Life.

Oh, No. It Was

My Dad's Life.

He Chose It

For The Both Of Us.

Don't Get Me Wrong.

I Love The Sea

And Everything.

It's Just...

I Think I Stuck

With Her For So Long...

'Cause My Dad Loved Her.
