Ozark Sharks Page #3

Hello?

Help me! Help me!

Where are you?

Keep yelling

so I can find you!

Help me! Help!

Over here!

Hello? Where are you?

- Hello?

- Help me!

You all right?

Not really. I'm stuck.

It's all right.

I'm coming to get you.

Wait.

You can't cross--

It's fine.

I know about the sharks.

It's okay.

No, but you can just--

It's fine.

It's not that far.

I'm going to come,

all right?

I know. Just wait.

I'm coming.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

All right.

Here I come.

Aah!

Smooth.

That was the practice run.

I'm coming back out for you.

You might want to

actually use the canoe.

- Oh.

- Yeah.

Right. Okay.

- Whoa.

- Jones:
Ozark code.

That which nature

does not provide,

you devise.

- Yes.

- Manners, boy.

I like to call this

my paddle prod.

2,500 volts

of pure punishment

guaranteed to make

your target reconsider.

How does it work?

Little switch on the side.

( electricity crackles )

Guaranteed to

light up any room.

Should we be using

that near water?

Aim high.

Whoa!

When would you ever

even need this?

You need it now.

Yeah, okay.

I guess.

There you go.

Now put it down.

This one is

particularly delicious.

Nasty piece of business,

but I think

we can get it

to work on sharks.

I don't know.

It says bear on it.

I don't think so.

Ah.

Happy?

You know, no.

I'm not very happy.

- Whoa.

- Eh?

What's under that tarp?

Boy, you better pray you

never need to find out.

Now, for our main attraction.

( powering up )

- Big Betty.

- Whoa!

Giant air cannon constructed

of piping and canisters.

Curtis:

That's awesome.

What does it shoot?

The question is

what doesn't it shoot?

Doesn't really

answer my question.

Just about anything

you can put in it.

- Awesome. I call that.

- No.

- Come on. Please?

- No.

You need

to learn to share.

I want something.

Pick me out something.

Here you go, son.

Now, when that shark

swallows you,

just pull that little pin.

Dude, do not throw

a grenade, man!

You're insane.

I'm not going to get

swallowed by a shark.

This one's for you.

Watch the recoil on that.

I don't shoot guns.

Time you learned, precious.

Bullets will barely

even hurt those things.

A whole bunch

of them might.

Dude!

You gave her a gun?

I want a gun.

Give me a gun.

Look at all those

guns on the wall.

Give me--

give me something.

Will you please

just give me something

that I don't have to be

swallowed to use?

No.

No way.

We're taking

the harpoon cannon truck?

- Yes.

- Yes!

- Can I drive?

- No.

I gotcha.

There's barely

enough room for us

with all these weapons.

In the grand

scheme of things,

they take priority.

- Let's go find your parents.

- Let's do it. Aw!

- Get in!

- Can I ride in the back?

- Yes.

- Yes!

Mom:

You saw them?

- Yeah, I mean--

- Were you spying?

No, I wasn't spying,

but it's kind of

weird seeing--

Spy Dad.

I don't remember

packing this.

You didn't. Harrison did.

Did you leave him any?

No, I did not.

Oh, our son

has questionable taste.

- So does our daughter.

- Curtis is harmless.

All I'm saying,

is I preferred him

as Harrison's unemployed,

irresponsible friend,

as opposed

to my unemployed,

irresponsible,

future son-in-law.

It's her first

real relationship.

Yeah, I mean,

they're young.

She'll outgrow him--

I hope.

Don't worry.

You're going to have

plenty of new boyfriends

to irrationally hate.

- We should probably go back.

- Just a little bit longer.

Maybe me and you could

rock the boat a little.

( thud )

- What was that?

- I don't know

what that was.

- ( thud )

- Oh!

Honey?

It can't be.

Row! Diane! Row!

To the shore!

No!

No, no!

Rick, don't!

I got it.

I can almost--

- Don't!

- I got it!

This isn't the way

to the cabin.

I think I know my way

around these woods

better than you do, missy.

I'm going the back way

around the lake.

It's quicker.

Hey, what's up, guys?

Get in the back, son!

Mom:

Your shirt.

Tight!

Make it tight and elevate.

- It got my ring!

- Okay, hold on! Hold on.

Um...

Pull it back.

You got it!

Nice shot!

Okay.

Hey, you ever shoot

the harpoon cannon

while you're driving?

I'm about to shoot you

while driving.

- No, you're not.

- A flare.

Flare. Right there.

Over there.

All right. All right.

I got it. I'm on it.

What's your name?

Dawn.

I'm Harrison.

How did you get

stuck out there?

I was out on the water

with some friends,

and this shark showed up.

And they just

left you out there?

No.

- Oh.

- Yeah.

It got my Grandma, too.

Sorry.

Oh!

Oh, no!

Where is this going?

I don't know.

Let's just go!

No, I mean,

where does this lead?

To the lake. Oh, my God.

There's, like,

this huge firework

celebration tonight.

Half the town's going

to be on the water.

We have--

we have to warn them.

My phone's at

the bottom of the river.

Do you have--

No, I left it in

my friend's truck.

There's never any

service out there.

Damn.

All right. Hop in.

- Are you crazy, dude?

- My parents are in the water.

I'm not going to

let this thing

get the drop on them.

We got to go.

We'll stay close

to the shore,

and we'll keep it

in our sights.

I don't think

you understand.

There are sharks, plural!

Wait, are you sure?

Yeah, I've been

watching them

swim in and out all day.

How many?

I don't know. Five or six.

What does it matter?

Okay, we'll just stay close,

and if we have to bail,

we have to bail.

We'll keep it in our sights.

This is a horrible idea.

Yeah. The worst.

Are you coming?

No. No!

Suit yourself.

Wait, you can't

just leave me here.

I'm going this way.

If you want to come,

you come.

If you want to stay,

that's your choice.

All right, all right.

I'm coming.

Welcome aboard.

This is crazy.

Oh, God.

Take this.

Do you know

what you're doing?

I've done it.

Come on, now.

You can do it.

You're doing great.

We're almost there!

Keep rowing.

You're doing good.

Come on, Diane!

Rick!

Focus on the shore.

You're doing great!

Focus! Focus!

Keep going!

You're doing great!

We're almost there.

Focus on the shore!

Row, baby!

Come on, row!

You got it!

You got it!

You got it!

You got the shark!

Mom, are you okay?

I'm fine. Your father--

Curtis:

That's a lot of blood.

Dad, what happened?

I'm okay.

It looks worse than it is.

Really? Because

it looks really bad.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

Go ahead.

Thanks.

What is going on?

Sharks, ma'am.

Where's your brother?

Molly!

He went looking for you.

Harrison:

Hey, you doing okay?

Peachy.

I'm sorry about

your friends.

Thanks.

I'm sorry about

your Grandma.

Yeah.

Dawn:

I did this.

My friends were throwing

fireworks in the water.

They woke it up,

pissed it off.

No, you know,

that thing's a wild animal.

It runs on instinct.

It's a force of nature.

It's primal.

You can't--

you can't blame

yourself for it.

That's what a crazy

old guy with a gun

told me earlier today,

anyway.

Yeah, maybe not,

but four people are dead

because of me.

And now how many more
