At the end of the hallway is a hatch.

That'll bring you into the bilge pump room.

Hatch. Hatch.

It's at the same level as where you are,

so there must be some air.

Have you got it?

You're going to have to lose the vest.

What do you mean, lose my vest?

We're going under.

Damn, man.

(horn blows)

Let's get the hell out of here!

(man) Move away from the railing!

(woman) Harvey, wait for me!

Come on, over against the wall!

What's going on?

(Juliano) At the far side is a short slide.

That will lead into the bow thruster room.

Alex, can you hear me?

We're getting very close.

(horn blows)

(Juliano) The bow thrusters,

they're two large wheels...

...connected to a shaft...

...that will turn the propeller.

Now, when you fnd the wheel...

...turn it as fast you can.

Hold on, hold on.

You only turn one wheel at a time.

If you turn them both,

you'll cancel yourself out.

Make sure

you turn the starboard wheel only.

OK, look.

We have to play tag.

I'll go down first.

You follow me in 15 seconds.

All right.

They're turning us. Sir, they're turning us.

Yes.

Yes, it's working.

(gasps)

(horn blows)

(horn blows)

No, no, no, no.

(woman) Make it stop.

(horn blows)

Oh, my God! Everybody down!

We're going to crash!

(screaming)

(screaming)

Oh, God!

Aagh!

(screaming)

I think we did it!

We turned it!

Get down!

Aagh!

Whoa! (laughs)

I do believe we have a miss!

(computer beeps)

Lmpossible! No!

No!

They did it.

Oh!

Oh, we made it.

Oh, Jack.

Yes. Yes.

I sure hope somebody got that on tape.

Yeah.

Oh!

Oh, sh*t.

Oh, sh*t!

Oh, sh*t.

Aw, sh*t.

Mum.

Hey!

Hey!

We got to get out of here.

(Dante) Yeah, no kidding. Come on.

Come on!

Come on, hurry up!

They're coming right at us!

Come on! Faster than that!

(man) We have right of way here!

Sorry! Excuse us!

No way!

That was close!

To the bridge!

(alarm beeping)

Where's anchor control?

We got to stop her.

What? Anchor control?

We can't drop it. We're moving too fast.

Did you see Annie?

No.

(Merced) I got it! I got it.

(Juliano)

No. No anchor can stop a moving ship.

(Merced) It's moving. It's going down.

I can feel it. We're slowing down.

(Juliano)

No. Too fast. It's not going to hold.

(woman) Harvey!

(man) Get in the corner! Brace yourselves!

Oh, my God! We're doomed!

We're not going to stop!

We're not going to stop!

(alarm beeping)

Drop the other one.

I'm telling you. We're still too fast.

It's stuck.

- God, no. No.

- (bangs console)

Where's the horn? Where's the horn?

How can there not be a horn?

There's got to be a horn here somewhere.

Where's he going?

Oh, sh*t!

(Merced) What you doing with the wheel?

Huh?

It doesn't work!

What?

Jan, hold this a sec.

(gasps)

Allez! Allez!

Oh, no. No, no, no.

Aagh!

(screaming)

(Merced) I can't believe it.

This is slowing us down.

Nine knots.

Jeez!

Oh, man! Let's go!

Huh?

This isn't happening.

Oh, no. No more. Not again.

I found it! I found it! I found it!

(PA beeps)

Everybody get out of the way!

There's a big boat coming!

Please!

Now!

Run! Jump!

Swim!

Come on, people, move out of the way!

We don't have brakes!

This is not a dream!

Jump!

Abandon your ship!

Oh, my God! We're mowing them down!

Stop!

(Merced) lt... it's helping.

Seven knots.

Turn right! Turn right!

Look out!

Whoa!

Sh*t!

Ow. Ow. Ow. Ow.

(man)

Two bedrooms, dining room, kitchen, nook.

Mummy, there's a big boat.

I know.

There are a lot of big boats here, honey.

What a cute boy...

...and smart of you to notice all the ships.

The walls are a soft European eggshell...

(Juliano) God, it'll take forever to stop us.

Harvey?

(screaming)

Quick!

We're not going to fit! It's too tight!

(barking)

Get down!

Aagh!

(screaming)

Six knots!

Aagh!

Aagh!

Oooh!

What? What? I can't hear you.

Aagh!

It's coming.

Five knots!

(barking)

(both) Ooh!

(horn blares)

(horn blares)

Four...

...aagh!

Stop!

Here it comes now!

It's really big, Mum.

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God!

Get down!

Aagh!

Aagh!

Two knots!

Almost stopped!

(barking)

Oh, no!

Get down!

(rings)

Zero.

Aagh! Aagh! Ooh.

(car alarm)

My car!

(barks)

I got to find Annie.

(Juliano) Sh*t! She's going over!

(screaming)

(Dante) We're tipping!

We're tipping!

(screaming)

Ow.

We're docked.

We're docked!

I can't believe it!

We're safe.

Zero.

(creaking)

(shouts)

Say what?

Bad luck to run ship over town.

No sh*t, bad luck, man.

I just bought a condo here.

My God.

You all right?

Yeah. I think I broke my other arm.

The ship's parked in the middle of town...

...but, hey, it could've been worse.

I'm not sure how,

but it could've been worse.

I got to get my girl.

Thank you.

Uh!

Sorry.

Be careful.

I'll go check on the others.

Looks like your vacation is almost over.

Just stay away from me,

or you're going to get hurt...

...I swear to God.

What are you going to do, Annie?

Splash water on me?

I'm driving now.

Hey, Annie! Hey!

Annie!

Come back! You stay with me!

You're my hostage!

I need a boat!

Can I help you?

I'm a cop. I need to borrow your boat.

What? You've got to be kidding me.

This is joke, right?

You're messing with my head.

Come on, man, you gotta be kidding me!

Can't you see I'm on a date?

Alex Shaw, LAPD. Start the boat.

LAPD? I'm in the Caribbean, man.

What are you doing here?

Stop him, Maurice.

Know how many hours of therapy

I've had because of you guys?

And that sh*t's expensive!

You drive.

(woman) Hey, hey, where are you going?

No!

Hey! Annie!

OK, OK, take it easy, man!

This boat cost me $150,000.

That way.

(Maurice) OK. That's it!

I want a promissory note right now!

(woman) Whoa!

Give it!

Let go of me!

Ow!

Do we have a fiery temper?

You have no idea!

(Geiger) There she is.

Look! Fireworks!

It's her.

What?

That way, fast.

Nah, I can't drive that fast!

There's shallow reefs! Sh*t!

(starts engine)

Get as close to that plane as you can.

Give me one good reason.

If you don't, I'll throw you over.

OK.

That's a good reason.

Almost at speed!

Don't! Don't you...

Ow! Let me go!

I think you better stay with me.

Get closer!

What?

Let me go!

You want to go? I'll let you go...

...at about 10,000 feet!

Get me closer!

Huh?

He's going to shoot the plane!

Nice shot.

Let's see if he can hold on now!

Follow me!

Let go!

He... he's supposed to let go.

Let go!

No, no, he's reeling himself in!

Follow him! Follow him!

Oh, you little sh*t.

Here we go!

(Geiger) No!

No, don't!

No!

Come here!

Oh, God.

Alex! Alex!

Annie!

Annie!

- Hi.

- (Annie) Hi.

Hi.

Come on.

Now hold on!

Aagh!

What's he riding that banana peel for?

What's he doing?

Aagh!

Aagh!

Aagh!

(siren)

(PA) Abandon ship.

All the crew members...

...abandon ship immediately.

(Maurice) It's gonna blow, it's gonna blow!

Jump, fool! Get off that thing!

Jump!

Hope they can hold their breath

a long time.

Come on, don't run out of air.

Me not see 'em. Me think they dead.

They're not gone.
