- What are you doing?

- Just get away! Get away!

- Just get away!

- Jesse!

(Door slams)

(Sobs)

(Fergus) Mum?

- Dad?

- Fergus!

(Reggie sobbing)

(Man) Oi!

You're gonna need this.

What for?

Well, you came in third.

Andy's hurt pretty bad,

so you're next in line.

You up for it?

I ca... Danny, I can't take it.

Sign-in's at eight.

Can't change it now.

Just do your best, all right?

If you don't make it...

..everyone'll understand.

Nice board, mate.

Look, Andy, I'm really sorry, man.

It's not your fault.

- Yeah, it is.

- Shut up.

Dude, I shouldn't have dropped in

on your wave. I shouldn't have...

Shut up, all right?

You're in the contest now.

This is what you've always wanted.

- Sh*t, mate, I...

- Don't worry about me.

Andy, it's not...

I don't know,

it's just not important any more.

- Really?

- Yeah, really.

I mean, all that was Victor's dream.

And what's yours, mate?

I know the feeling.

Ah!

Careful.

(Phone rings)

Hello?

This is what we need.

So this is what you guys do

when Fergus comes around?

Sometimes.

Figures.

What?

I'm always trying to nick 'em

and you just give 'em to him.

Well, he's not so dumb, is he?

Guess not.

You know,

life sometimes is a real sh*t, buddy.

It's a real sh*t.

You've got to stop blaming yourself.

It was an accident.

You didn't mean to hurt anyone.

(Jesse sniffing)

But I did, Gramps.

Jess.

(Fergus) Gramps?

Gramps?

(Fergus) Hey!

(Panting)

I ain't surfing the contest.

That's all right.

What's the f***ing point?

I don't know.

(Jesse) I'm so over it.

When we were eight,

Victor told me I couldn't go surfing

because I had glasses,

and I believed him.

Then when he told me

I didn't fit in with you any more,

and your friends,

I figured he was right.

Fergus, he was just...

But when he told me

that I couldn't play guitar,

and that I'd never be any good

at anything...

I stopped listening to him.

He was just hassling you, man.

Yeah, I know. He was mad.

His mum died

and we came and took his dad away.

He just took it out on me.

He gave me sh*t, too.

Yeah, after he busted his knee,

'cause he knew that you were gonna go

places that he couldn't go any more.

- What, like he was jealous?

- Yeah.

He was lonely.

You still do that?

Yeah.

Best thing you ever showed me.

Jesse?

Jesse!

Oi! Jesse!

Whoo!

Come on! Whoo-hoo-hoo!

Come on!

Whoo!

Come on! It's great.

Whoo!

(Fergus continues whooping)

Come on!

(Cheers)

(Wolf whistle)

- Sh*t!

- Oh, f***.

(Jesse) F***.

OK, wait here.

(Whispers) Come on.

(Lifeguard) Hey!

(Jesse) Run!

Get off my friggin' beach!

Go on, go and get some clothes on!

Go on, get goin'! Get out of here.

Go on! What do you think it is?

Get out of here!

(Both laughing)

- Pumping, isn't it?

- Where have you been?

(Indistinct chatter)

- (Jesse) Here you go.

- Get the...

(Dog barking)

(Blender)

Urgh! Gramps.

(Floorboards creaking)

(Gramps) Been for a swim?

- Yeah.

- Hi, Gramps.

What the hell happened

to your clothes?

- What are you doing here?

- Hm!

- You got a contest to go, don't ya?

- Yeah.

(Laughter)

- (Sandra) Good luck, boys.

- Eyes.

All right, sweetheart.

Yeah, Jesse!

(All cheer)

Go on, Jesse.

Wow!

(Cheering)

(Whooping)

- Whoo-hoo!

- Yay, Jess!

Andrew!

(PA commentary)

(Commentator) Mitch Rusedski and Jesse

Hoff. Three locals take on the surfer...

(Commentator) ..up on the inside,

a couple of big moves.

- Great wave.

- (Commentator) Jesse Hoff.

Oh, no!

Ooh!

(Woman shouting)

- Oh, sorry.

- Watch the contest.

Definitely intensive.

- Not bad.

- For a bum out.

(Commentator) Jesse Hoff

has the whole line-up to himself.

Come on, Jess.

(Foghorn)

(Crowd cheering, whooping)

Come on, already!

(Flora) Coming!

(Jesse) Oi, tell your boyfriend to hurry up!

(Fergus) Shut up!

(Andy) What did he say?

(Fergus) Nothing.

(Jesse) Oi! Wankers!

(Whooping)
