Do you have regular pilots?

Wait, wait.
Wait!
Your thumb! I have to talk
to you about your thumb!
Yeah. I flew mail out
to the Erkigsnek Tuesday.
Gave him a ride.
He took that photo
of my hand on the stick.
I'm just blown away
I located your thumb.
There is, like, eight
people in Greenland.
I mean, it's a good
place to find a thumb.
Don't cheat on your lady, man...
when you live in a country that
By the way.
So, uh...
You're scrappy.
You're a little scrappy Duncan.
So, you're trying
to find this guy?
Yes. Yeah.
Well, I'm flying some radio parts
out there in five minutes.
He may still be on the boat.
Really?

The weather doesn't look so great.
It's not.
Looks like there's
Yeah.
A-brewin'.
Yeah.
But you're just...

I'm kind of nervous

I just want to get
Okay. I'm not gonna go with you.

Whatever.
See you, man.
Okay.

Okay.
Shut up!
Hi. Hello, everyone.
Hi. Uh...
Hello, Nuuk.
Sorry, I'm a little nervous.
Okay.
This one goes out to Walter Mitty.
He knows why.
Take your protein pills
And put your helmet on
Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition
And may God's love be with you
This is Ground Control
to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know
whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave
the capsule if you dare
This is Major Tom
to Ground Control
And I'm floating
in the most peculiar way
And the stars look
very different today
For here am I
sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
and there's nothing I can do
Hey.
Glad you came.
Are you comfortable?
What?
Are you comfortable?
No!
Hold on tight.
Hey, there she is!
Where do we land?
We don't!
What?
We don't land.
Okay, Walter.
I was gonna drop the radio
parts into the boat.
You take them.
They're right next to you.
These?
Yeah.
Just jump in the boat.
You got them?
Just jump in the boat?
Yeah.
Yeah, you're doing great, Walter!
What do you mean,
"jump into the boat"?
What would be the best way of
reaching you to stay in touch?
I don't know. Wait!
What do you mean
"jump into the boat"?
It looks far away!
Yeah, but you got to go now!
Go, go, go!
Go!
No!
No, Walter!
The little boat!
Help!
Help! Help!
Try to remain calm.
The pontoon boat
is coming for you.
You have at least a minute
before you freeze!
What?
You are safe!
There's something here!
There's a fin here, I think!
We are traveling through
a porpoise school!
Don't fear the porpoise!
I don't think it's a porpoise!
I'm telling you, it's a porpoise.
Be friendly.
It will protect
you from the sharks.
Okay.
Come here.
Hey!
Hey.
Okay, that's a shark.
That's what I said!
Jesus!
Stop befriending it!
Kill it!
It's not a porpoise!
It's not a porpoise!
Poke his eyes out!
Fight it!
Oh, my God.
That really happened?
Real face.
Sorry for palming your face.
Oh, my God.
A pilot boat came.
They took him four hours ago.
Before the storm.
Took him where?
Iceland.
Is there any way
It's very important that I
discuss something with him.
You jumped into the ocean
with our radio components.
They are lost.
Correct?
Yeah, that's correct.
You're American?
Yeah.
Excellent!
Fonzie!
Come on, I'll find you some
dry clothing, homeslice.
Will this work?
For your items?
Oh, yeah.
Thank you.
Hey, I'll take this, buddy.
Okay.
Hungry?
Sure.
I got some kick-ass cake, man.
Thank you.
Looking good.
You can keep it.
Hey, this is...
This is clementine cake.
This is clementine cake.
My mom makes this.
Yeah, Sean brought it.
Yeah.
Good.
Is this Sean's?
Yeah, he wrapped the cake in it.
This is a shoot itinerary.
It's a field itinerary
for a photo...
Did he say anything
about where he was going?
No, he didn't say much.
He was just taking pictures of
these guys, the Chilean deckhands.
He even gave me some tips...
for my Instagrams.
Facebook friends?
Yeah, sure.
Great.
What is "Eyjafallajokull"?
Eyjafjallajokull.
Excuse me?
Eyjafjallajokull.
What is that?
It's in Iceland.
It's a volcano.
A volcano?
Yeah.
May 2nd. That's tomorrow.
Do you think there's any way...
that we could possibly
land in Iceland?
Yeah.
Yeah?
We have to in the morning.
Great.
Because you lost the radio.
Right, yeah, sorry.
Sorry. But that's...
Well, I just have to get to...
Eyjafjallajokull.
Right.
Hey, I'll see you on
Sesame Street, man.
Okay, you're here, and
this is Eyjafjallajokull.
It's 15 kilometers.
Okay.
You can take the shore bike.
But you better get going, man.
Yeah, he didn't write a time
on that clue paper.
No, man. Hurry.
Because of...
What? I don't understand.
What he means, man,
is you have to hurry...
because there's a bunch
of horny Chileans...
who want to go to the strip club.
There's only one bike.
Hurry, Walter, hurry! Run! Go!
Go!
Stay gold, Pony Boy!
Hello?
Hey, what's up?
Todd? From eHarmony?
Yeah! What's up, man?
Not much. How have you been?
Good. It's early here.
I just got up, man.
Where are you?
Los Angeles.
Hey, so your profile still
hasn't received any winks.
Even though I put that
you've been to Phoenix.
Oh!
I jumped out of a helicopter
yesterday into the ocean.
And had a shark fight.
Yeah, listen,
I was mentioning before...
people who daydream too
much, they're not...
No, it was real.
I really did.
Really? Then I'll put
down "adrenaline junkie. "
What kind of a shark?
