The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou Page #5

Alright, I got it.

-You let him change your name!

-Well, we changed it together.

-What was it before?

-Edward Plimton.

That is a million times better, change it back,

Ned. I really don't think you as a Kingsley Zissou.

Do you think Steve and I

have a family resemblance?

No.

I guess it doesn't

really matter anyway.

Here

I stole it back.

I strung it on some peppermint dental floss

in case you wanna wear it like a necklace.

-Happy with the piece, Jane?

-What are you doing in here!

Am I? No.

-Put that down!

I assume I am Mr.Z. I am sorry

you think my red hat is err..

what did you use... contrived.

and that...

the Zissou of my childhood represent

all the dreams I come to regret!

-What? Why?

-I am going have to start locking my cabin door.

It was locked, I kicked it in.

Why don't curse like other people?

Because I am trying to get out of the

habit before I have my f***ing baby!

Ok, that makes sense.

Please clean your room anyway,

it looks like God damn Typhoon...

Get out!

Please don't make fun of me, I

just wanted to flirt with you.

I will have an intern

come and fix the door.

This is a message

from the IMU coastguard

Apparently some crooked f***ers

broke into my sea lab yesterday.

How awful! Did they nick anything?

It doesn't say, they probably

just trashed the place.

I am so... pissed, I wanna spit.

We are going to hunt these sickos.

Supposely, Crew stole this cronies invented the

idea of putting walkie talkie into the helmet.

We made ours with a special rabbit ear

(antenna) on top, so we can pipe in some music.

Let's start with a reverse scene.

Ok, roll it, Vikram.

Would you be comfortable for me to

address you as dad in this scene?

No, why?

Oh, excuse me, I am sorry,

I forgot... I am sorry.

Where are you coming

from! check off? Sh*t!

It's not a bad impulse though,

some of kind of nickname.

Not that one, it's too specific.

Try invent something else.

Another name?!

How about Stevezy?

That is good, try it. What

were going to say before?

Good luck, Stevezy.

Fantastic, let's go.

Ok, action.

Look, Ned, there is a

sunken airplane down there.

Let's check it out.

We examined the crash site but we were

careful not to disturb the forensic evidence.

How was that?

Not bad, the first thing

was a little faster.

Klaus... Klaus!

-Yar?

-Can I have a work with you please?

What?

-Why did do that?

-Because I owe you one.

What! You give me a warning

already! You stood up for yourself!

I still owe you one.

-Now I owe you one.

-No, now we are even.

Why did you do this? it is not my

fault, you know I don't have that...

What are you talking about?

We are even, damn it! that's it!

No, it was like a...

beat up little jalopy.

I don't know what you call

it. You didn't see it!?

I don't see it, boss.

Well, keep your eyes peeled.

Klaus, check who is the

watch. I will be in the Sauna.

Pele and who the sh*t

is Kingsley Zissou?

-Is that him?

-Hmm, that is him.

I never felt a baby in

someone's stomach before.

I think you will make a

very good single mother.

Thanks.

Although it does bring you

both tremendous disadvantage.

You know...

Steve got a little

bit of thing for you.

Why do you say that?

Because he told me.

Really! I thought he hated my guts.

Oh, I think you have hurt his feeling

a little bit but it doesn't mean...

He said that I hurt

his feelings...?

So! I've f***ed up.

Yeah?

Steve, would you

please open the door?

Jane, is Ned in there?

Stevesie, what's happening?

Are those hijackers?

Well, we call them

pirates out here, Ned.

You are supposed to be

on watch, by the way.

My god, you are right.

So tell me, you are reading

to each other in French?

No, it's in English.

It was translated.

You know, you are not supposed to

go into each other's cabin on a boat.

Why not?

It's just kind of an unwritten

maritime rule when you are at sea.

Especially be an goddamn lookout.

I am so sorry.

So am I.

You hung myself to dry.

We don't handle this right,

We'll all get murdered.

Including her unborn British child.

I will kill you a**hole.

I am gonna hit you so f***ing hard.

You will be blind.

Please don't hurt him.

Watch me.

I'll let you know what I am

going to make them a little...

Steve, it's a way to

save the passengers.

Do what they say.

Help them put money and

jewelry in the chest.

Yeah. How am I going

to finish my movie then?

Jesus Holy!

They are going to kill us, Steve.

I am patting you on the

back right now, Klausie.

Don't be scared.

We'll get through this, everybody.

Wake up, Nedo.

I'm sorry I yelled at you.

I need to speak to the

man in charge, fellas.

Don't point that gun at him.

He's an unpaid intern.

What kind of coverage did you get?

I just kept it rolling until

they put this hood over my head.

Bill speaks their language.

What are they saying, Billy?

Hold on.

Apparently they are

taking a hostage.

Obviously they have chosen Ned.

Now they find out

that I speak Filipino,

They seem to be

changing their minds.

You have a vault? They want

to know if there is a vault.

There's no vault.

"Our vault contains at least ten different currencies

from all over the world at any given moment.

"We are prepared for every

kind of financial necessity."

There goes Ned's inheritance.

Tell them if they don't

get off my boat right now,

There is going to be

a major sh*t storm.

Nedo, can you hear me?

We'll get you back, Billy.

Is everybody else save?

Anne-Marie, are you ok, honey?

No, I'm not.

I told you there are

unprotected waters.

What a f***ing nightmare.

Be cool on this sh*t, ok?

I mean at least try

to show both sides.

I need to find a

baby for this father.

Yeah, I think I know what you mean.

Here we go.

Steve?

I said "Get your ass

the hell off my boat!"

I've never seen a bond company

stooge stick his neck out like that.

What's this sound?

Is that ...

Artic night lights, yeah.

As if the natural world

has been turned upside down.

Get some cuts away of this miracle.

Klaus and Ogata, put out

the deck fire before we sink.

Those f***ing amateurs, you

left your dog, you idiots.

Wrap this stiff in a table cloth.

We are going to bury him at sea.

Should we give him to the

authority or something?

No.

I'll write up a few

words to read over.

How are you holding up

there, intern? Doing ok?

Ned, how many fingers

am I holding on?

I don't know.

That's not my job.

Too many to tell.

He's gonna be just fine.

I believe it's criminal that

Steve allowed this to happen to us,

By which I mean illegal.

We are being led on an illegal

suicide mission by a selfish maniac.

I hear what you're saying.

But I think you misjudged the guy.

Holy sh*t! Son of a b*tch!

Cut.

We are here to response to your

distress signal. Remain calm until...

Ogata, run upstairs to put a chart board

over, says "Operation Hennessey" on it.

What about this guy?

Just throw him over the other side.

Your engine blown up and all your
