Some people come into

your life as blessings.

Some come in as lessons.

Blessings are worth

sh*t all when it comes

to getting through life.

YOUNG HAILEY:

Mom.

Mom!

Look at me!

(GRUNTING)

HAILEY:

Every family

has its ups and downs,

and we are no different.

(BIRDS CHIRPING IN DISTANCE)

(HAILY SIGHS)

(BOTH GRUNTING)

HAILEY:

That's me.

That's Roger, my dad.

- The man with nine lives.

- (KISSES)

He died a bunch of times.

That's Olga, my mother.

All my life lessons

come from her.

And my sister, Rose.

We are so different.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

HAILEY:

As a child,

his heart was scarred

from rheumatic fever.

From then on, Roger's life

was measured in illnesses,

ailments, and deaths.

Why me, Lord?

(MONITOR BEEPING)

(MONITORS BEEPING)

(DEFIBRILLATOR HUMS)

HAILEY:

Through the graces of God,

or medical technology,

however you wanna look at i,

he was brought

back from the dead...

- ...just like Jesus...

- (EXCITING FANFARE)

HAILEY:

Well, more amazing.

Jesus only came up once.

(BLOWING NOISEMAKERS)

HAILEY:

Our first professional

family photo.

We are going to enjoy

this goddam day

whether it kills us or not.

HAILEY:

Mom saved up

for this for months.

- CAMERA WOMAN: Smile!

- (CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS)

Stupid kid.

(SIRENS WAILING)

HAILEY:

His heart was failing him.

Again.

It's been a long time

Since I saw you

But I remember it all

It's uselessness

Trying to forget

I turn every corner

Like you're just

round the bend

Empty sidewalks

And your memory again

You godforsaken mini Christer!

Get over here!

HAILEY:

I loved camping.

HAILY:

Drinking that beer!

(MONITOR BEEPING)

HAILEY:

Resurrection number nine.

(BOTTLES CLINK)

HAILEY:

He found his way

back to the living.

(ROGER LAUGHING)

HAILEY:

Nine times.

(NOISEMAKERS BLOWING)

HAILEY:

Mom took up judo.

Taught me how to break a fall.

After that,

when I got on her nerves,

over her shoulder I'd go.

(OLGA GRUNTING)

(BODY SLAMS)

OLGA:

Cole, get out of here!

Trish, what are you waiting for?

Buddy!

- (MONITOR BEEPING)

- (CHILDREN LAUGHING)

HAILEY:

After all those near deaths,

he quits his job,

and starts fishing.

- (MONITOR BEEPING)

- (ROGER SINGING)

- (FISHING LURE SPLASHES)

- (REEL CLICKING)

HAILEY:

The man could not swim.

Growing up surrounded by water,

he couldn't frickin' swim.

But this time, this one time,

because of my stupid hangover...

(BOTTLES CLINKING)

(BOTTLE SHATTERS)

HAILEY:

...he went without me.

ROGER:

It's six a.m.

The fish are jumping.

(HAILY GROANS)

ROSE:

Why me, Lord?

This is all your fault.

Get the Jesus off

the forsaken floor.

Mom!

Why is it my fault?

She effing blamed me.

Let's get you some food.

Come on, Rose.

HAILEY:

And after that,

I was so out of there.

Are you ready

Are you scared

Are you painfully aware

That you don't know

where you're going

But you're on your way

Hope for the best

Plan for the worst

Don't forget something

that'll quench your thirst

Remember that you

weren't always the one

Who knew what to say

And you don't know

where you're going

But you're on your way

I don't want to talk

to anybody right now.

No you don't know

where you're going

Wait, you got fired?

Cuts.

They made cuts.

Why would you think

that I got fired?

Are you steady

Are you not

SYD:

Dude, I don't care

about another job.

I care about you.

Something that you forgot

Are you worried?

HAILEY:

I don't need you

to take care of me, okay?

Okay well,

this is the perfect time

for this.

Are you anxious or immune

Are you easily

confused by anything

You want me to get

rid of this place?

Well, I mean.

I'm on tour so much.

I need somebody

to water my plants.

Clean my apartment.

What a d*ck.

(SYD LAUGHING)

(KISSING)

()

Love it when you wear

your vic secrets.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

Hailey, this is...

HAILEY:

Rose?

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

I... I need you to come,

um, home.

Will, there's a will reading.

- HAILEY: Whose?

- ROSE: (ON PHONE) Mom's will.

- ROSE: (ON PHONE) Please...

- What'd she die of?

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

Um, I just don't really want...

Who's that?

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

Please, I need you here...

No, I... I can't. No.

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

You have to be here.

Please.

Can you do it without me?

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

No, I can't do this

without you.

- Hailey please, I need you...

- Was it quick?

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

Hailey, Hailey...

- Rose. Rose!

- Please...

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

I need you here!

- Okay.

- ROSE: (ON PHONE) Yeah?

- I...

- ROSE: (ON PHONE) Okay!

Yes, I'll think it over.

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

Oh, you promise?

Really. I promise. I will.

ROSE: (ON PHONE)

Okay, yeah. Bye.

- (CELL PHONE BEEPS)

- (HAILY SIGHS)

Babe, who was that?

Um.

Rose.

My sister.

Wait, you have a sister?

She wants me to come home

for the reading of the will.

Whose will?

Olga's.

And Olga is?

(SIGHS)

My mother.

I thought your mother

had already died.

I mean, I was under

the impression, Hailey,

that... that you

didn't have family.

Um, blood relatives, maybe.

But not a family.

(BELL CHIMES)

Just because

we're blood relatives

doesn't mean you

deserve my love.

You gotta work for it.

Grounded.

One more month.

I'm having a complex array

of emotions right now.

Yeah, me too.

Me too.

So, when do you think

you'll fly?

(SCOFFS)

- Never.

- What?

Come on.

I mean, your sister

on the phone?

I could hear her

crying from here.

Oh, she's always been needy.

How could you not tell

me that you had a family?

Blood relatives.

Family is family.

Well, maybe I will go.

You know?

It'll be like a holiday

by the ocean.

Instead of a trip to hell,

which is probably

where she's headed.

You really shouldn't speak

about your mother that way.

No.

You wouldn't say

that if you met her.

(HORN HONKS)

(HAILY GROANS)

Are you sure you don't want me

to just come along?

No.

(KISSING)

What else don't I know

about you?

Bye.

(DOOR CLOSES)

Ocean blue

- I don't usually swim

- (AEROPLANE ENGINE WHOOSHIN)

But I followed you in, boy

I followed you in

Ocean blue

(CAR ALARM CHIRPS)

I don't usually swim

But I followed you in, boy

I followed you in

Starts as a feeling

And ends up a story

Strange to each other

And lost in a country

Lost in our bodies

With nothing to hold us

We drifted together

Out past the breakers

Ocean blue

I don't usually swim

But I followed you in, boy

I followed you in

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

- (BIRDS CHIRPING)

- (WIND CHIMES CLINKING)

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Hailey.

You're here.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Is everything all right?

Y... yeah, look at you.

(NERVOUS CHUCKLE)

Don't you look fit and all?

Can't believe you're here.

Yeah, me too.

I didn't think you should have

to deal with this all alone.

Yeah.

That's kind of you.

Thanks.

(CHUCKLING)

Is everything all right?

Yes!

I'm just so gloriously

happy that you're here.

(CHUCKLES)

Come inside for now.

Let's get caught up on,

lots to talk about, I'm sure!

Your place is sweet.

(ROSE CHUCKLES)

And you look great.

I kind of thought you'd be

taking Mom's death more badly.

Tea?

All right.

Hmm.

Mom looks great here.

When's the reading of the will?

Soon.

(CHUCKLES)

Soon. Soon, soon.

Are you hungry?

Um, not really.

Let me see what I can get ya.

Are you okay?

ROSE:

Mm, uh.

Um, chamomile?

Rose.

Uh, I... I have black tea.

Green tea?

Jesus H-E double

hockey sticks Christ.

You better goddam

tell me what's up,

or I'm gonna k*ll you.

Monk's tea?

Tastes awful.

Major puke factor.

What is going on?

OLGA:

Who the hell is driving

this high and mighty

red sports car out here?

(TAKES A DRAG)

(BLOWING SMOKE)

(HAILEY ROARING)

- No!

What are you doing?

No!

(BOTH STRUGGLING)

Did you girls not do any...

Jesus, growing up?

Hailey!

- Let her go!

- (BOTH STRUGGLING)

I said let her go!

What am I doing here?

And why are you still alive?

Well, how am I supposed

to answer that?

I'm dying!

- Stop crying wolf already!

- Stop crying wolf already!

(HAILY GROANS)

ROSE:

No, no, no, no!

Please don't go!

(DOOR SLAMS)

(ROSE SIGHS)

Why did you come here?

I told you to stay away

until I called you

with the secret code word!

Well it was a stupid code word.

Now go get her.

No, you get out until I call you

with the code word!

I am not coming in

when you say Pamela Anderson.

Geraldo.

Use Geraldo.

Now go get her.

Geraldo.

Geraldo.

Nice one, Ma.

(DOOR SLAMS)

Dear God, why have you

forsaken me with these idiots?

ROSE:

I heard that!

(GULLS CALLING)

(WAVES CRASHING)

(HAILEY GRUNTING)

Why am I even here?

- I'm done.

- Hailey!

Wait.

There is a will.

Dad's, um, he left you the boat.

He... he wanted you

to have the boat.

You can't do this, Rose.

What about me?

I lost you too when Dad died.

You and Mom.

You never once called.

Never send a card.

Nothing.

For 10 years!

We hate phones and postal.

When Uncle Dickie died,

I called you!

Thanks.

ROSE:

I called you!

(WAVES CRASHING)

(HAILEY GRUNTS)

(KEYS CLINKING)

Give me the keys, Rose.

(HORN BLARING)

(ROSE HARMONISING WITH HORN)

- (KICKS FOOT)

- ROSE: Ow!

Give me the keys,

you half-baked moron!

-No!

-Hailey-

-(HAILEY GRUNTING)

Hey!

Hailey!

Let go!

(BOTH STRUGGLING)

(HAILEY SHOUTS)

Give me!

No!

(KEYS CLINK)

(ROSE LAUGHS)

What?

- (ROSE LAUGHING)

- Oh.

(HAILEY ROARS)

(ROSE SNICKERING)

(WATER BOILING)

Why am I finding out just now?

We didn't know there

was one till now.

Ma found the will in

his bowling ball bag.

What am I gonna do with a boat

in a landlocked city?

Dad left it for you.

It's yours to do what you want.

You don't have to take

it if you don't want it.

Final voyage?

Where's the boat, then?

That's a tricky question.

Remember Philly and Dave,

the guys we used to get

our lobster from?

Mm-hmm.

- Ma gave it to them.

- Why the hell did she do that?

Well, I'm sure if she knew

there was a will,

she wouldn't have done that.

You want the boat?

Didn't think you'd want it,

'cause, you know, stuff.

I don't know.

Does she still blame me?

For what?

Dad.

You're projecting.

It's when you put your

feelings onto someone else

making you think that

it's actually their feelings,

but really it's not.

But yours.

Who are you?

I betcha you still

blame yourself.

Hey, I'm right.

Wha?

(PHONE DIALLING)

Geraldo.

Geraldo!

(ROSE CLEARS THROAT)

Geraldo!

Shut it and back away.

I heard you the first time.

(OLGA SIGHS)

Now are you goin' or stayin'?

Stayin'.

Goin'.

Runnin' again.

You don't want me here.

She's the one that cooked up

the idea to get you here.

Huh.

Then ask me nicely,

and I'll stay.

You have got to be kidding me.

You stay because you want to.

Don't go blaming me

for your stupid choices.

Ma.

Take her to see Philly,

and she'll stay.

Ask me to stay.

Philly?

He moved to the city.

Like so many others who

abandoned their family roots.

No, Ma.

Not that Philly.

The dead Philly from the inlet?

No.

The other dead one.

Hello?

- With the boat?

- Mm-hmm.

Why by Jesus would I

wanna see the other Philly?

How should I know what you want?

I know nothing about you.

Maybe you're rich,

maybe you're married.

ROSE:

Ma.

Maybe I'm a grandmother

and don't know it.

Ma!

How on God's green earth

did you find that out?

Are you really?

Limp-wristed?

l*sbian, Mom.

Say l*sbian.

l*sbian.

What?

Marshall's sister

Wendy's cousin Mallory's

ex-boyfriend Hamish,

from the cove, not the tip,

was in Banff on the run

from the Mounties.

Long story.

Anyway,

met you at headbanging bar.

Tried to pick you up,

and you said, "Go eff yourself.

"I'm a d*ke."

What?

Oh, yeah.

That was aeons ago.

And it made its way back here.

It made the gossip page.

Well, that's what

cities will do to you.

Make you go all

off and hedonistic.

And the backwoods will make

you back-a*s and ignorant.

Is that why you ran off?

Because you're a bean flickerer?

- Ugh.

- ROSE: Lobster.

Tomorrow.

We'll take you for lobster,

and you to see Philly

and find the boat.

All right.

Call me when you're ready.

HAILEY:

Don't you have work?

OLGA:

Tomorrow!

Don't keep me waiting.

Call it a vacation.

Sunshine, a coastal drive

like the olden days.

Life cannot get any better.

(HORN HONKING)

Mom!

No you don't.

She will get carsick

and complain,

and I can't take it

when she's whiny, so out.

You know she really

doesn't get sick.

She just wants the front.

She gets nothing

much in her life,

so let her get the front.

Where the hell is she?

(HORN HONKING)

Ma, stop it already.

She'll be here.

God.

You are the most

impatient person ever.

I deserve a medal for

the patience I endured

dealing with you two.

That girl has no sense of time.

You know, I read

a study about people

who have no sense of time.

Turns out the commonality

between them

is they never received

loving touch in their youth.

Jesus Christ, Hailey.

I was a woman of wisdom

as opposed to warmth.

Remember what I gave you

for your 18th birthday?

Advice.

I gave you advice.

- Good advice.

- Oh.

(BELL CHIMES)

I may have screwed you up,

but now that you're 18,

you're old enough to go

and fix yourself.

My job is done.

You're welcome.

Seems to me you

didn't take my advice.

Best gift ever, Ma.

(HORN BLARING)

(HAILY GROANS)

Stop!

What's on her head?

OLGA:

She knit it,

so shut your pie hole.

Sunshine lollipop

kinda day, wha?

Hailey!

Give it back!

(Rose groaning)

Let me rest

On your door

Let me crash

On your shore

Let me wake

On the floor

And dream

Forevermore

Take me down to

your water's edge

Take me down to

your water's edge

Well you know that

everything changes

As soon as you

drink from my cup

And I will not be unhappy

As long as you

give me enough

Oh, as long as

you give me enough

()

(GULLS CALLING)

Make sure you get

all the details.

Don't tell me what to do.

Cal!

How are you?

Hey.

Bring it here.

Is someone hugging her?

Well, she can be charming.

I wish some of that

rubbed off on me.

I bet he throws in at

least two free lobsters.

Olga!

Okay, here's an extra

couple for you.

HAILEY:

Unbelievable.

Hurry up.

Hurry! She's almost here!

- Quick!

- Open the goddam trunk.

Open it!

- Open it, hurry!

- God, okay!

You look like you've been

through the Boer w*r.

Any news on the boat?

Cal said Philly died,

but that he left the

boat with his daughter

for good-keeping.

It's that sl*t friend of yours.

- Trish?

- Her. Yup.

She's in the family trailer.

Oh, well can we go now

to Trish's.

There are lobsters

boxed in there

suffering for you, for us,

and right now, their

lives are more important,

than you, or than yours,

or than anybody's.

So go there tomorrow when you

don't have to inconvenience

me, your sister,

or the lobsters.

(WATER BOILING)

You gotta be ready.

Ready to move left,

ready to move right,

just remember,

stay out of her way.

OLGA:

Don't you make my life

any harder

than it already is!

Lobster Day is so much worse

than drunken Christmas day.

OLGA:

Dear god.

(ROSE WHIMPERS)

OLGA:

Just die!

Why doesn't she just stop

eating them?

Or buy them cooked?

Sacrilege.

Do not ever say anything

like that in front of her.

It is her only joy in the world.

But she's k*lling them.

Just zip it.

OLGA:

Two more!

Now!

Does she still support PETA?

Uh-huh.

OLGA:

You guys do not do anything

I asked?

- Hurry, hurry!

- Okay, stop yelling!

Get out of my way.

You were a good swimmer, Hails.

You remember?

Maybe if you'd been there,

you could've saved him.

All right, Ma.

You win.

I'm out of here.

You can't leave me alone here.

Look what I have to deal with.

Oh, just four little Lucifers.

Never thought

I'd be seeing you again.

Me neither.

CHILD 1:

Mommy, I gotta poop,

but Joey's still

in the bathroom!

God's country is one big toilet.

Go outside and find a nice place

for a shitter.

CHILD 1:

No, no, no, no, no!

Um, maybe I'll drop by later?

Oh, it's never

quiet around here.

Now's as good a time as any.

(CHUCKLES)

(CHILDREN THUMPING

Yeah, kids are such

pansies these days.

Not that being a p*nsy's wrong,

or anything.

You heard, too.

Jesus girl, it

was in the papers.

(HAILY SIGHS)

You don't look any gayer.

It's true?

True, yup.

You're brave coming back here.

Gotta face our demons

sometime though, don't ya?

Hey,

let's do a baloney barbecue.

We can get the g*ng together,

and I'll lock these

little scallywags

in the barn for the night.

Is the g*ng still here?

Oh, they sure are.

Cole, of course.

Buddy is here,

and by here, I mean here.

I married him.

- Oh?

- Yeah, well.

When he knocked me up

I... I made him tie the knot.

CHILD 2:

Mommy!

Stop being such a goddam

mini Christer!

I heard that your dad died.

I'm sorry about that.

Yeah, too much

drinking and smoking.

Um, do you happen to know

anything about my dad's boat?

I heard that your father had it.

Oh, he totally did.

Uh, it's, it's in the shed.

On Cole's land.

Ah.

Haven't seen him yet, eh?

Well, he'll puke rainbows,

he'll be so happy to see you.

Do you want a tea and toast?

Oh, uh, no thanks.

Um, do you know

where I can find him?

Same place he's always been.

I do.

I really do.

I thought I'd never

see you again.

Me neither, actually.

Holy hell.

How's it possible

you look even better

than you did before?

Oh, shut up.

(COLE LAUGHING)

Oh.

Come here.

Come inside.

Say hi to Bill.

Sorry about the missing teeth.

Cece had a date last night.

You remember Cece?

Yeah, she had a date last night.

She's missing the same ones, so.

Anyway, you make yourself...

Make yourself at home.

(SPORTS GAME PLAYING ON TV)

What happened to Bill's leg?

I'm lame, not deaf.

(HAILEY LAUGHS)

Damn diabetes took it last year.

HAILEY:

God.

I'm sorry to hear that, Bill.

Yeah well,

I got a seat everywhere I go.

You always were a glass

half full kinda guy.

It's been a dog's age

since I seen you.

HAILEY:

I know.

It's been a while.

I've been, um, living out West.

Part of the exodus.

I guess you could

call it that, yeah.

Let's go.

Take it easy, Bill.

Nothing but.

HAILEY:

You taking care of him

all the time?

Well, no one else would do it.

You're a saint.

He's my dad.

Do you have a limp?

It's a long story.

How's your mom?

She doing okay?

Same as always.

I love that woman to bits,

you know that?

(HAILEY SCOFFS)

Listen.

I know that I was

and am an idiot.

I shouldn't have

shot off like that.

I shoulda let you know

that I was out of here.

Hey, hey.

I know how hard it was on you,

losing your dad.

You two were pretty tight.

Life goes on, Hails.

Do you happen

to have my dad's boat?

Ah.

The boat.

I do.

I've been keeping it

safe for your return.

My return.

BILL:

Are you trying to starve me

to death?

(HAILEY LAUGHS)

It's feeding time.

Which is a joy,

compared to some of the other

sh*t I gotta do, but.

Doesn't matter to me.

Family's family.

Next time you come by,

I'll take you to the boat, okay?

Yeah?

You staying at your mom's?

Begrudgingly.

How about tonight?

After dinner?

BILL:

Bring me a beer, too!

Blossom, you staying for dinner?

No, Bill!

I got some stuff I gotta do.

BILL:

All right, then.

Maybe next time?

How about you take me

to that boat?

Come by tomorrow.

I gotta take Bill to a tarbish

competition tonight.

(HAILEY LAUGHS)

Classic.

I heard, uh, a rumour

that you were, uh...

Selfish?

Pushy?

I'm still holding

out for you, Hails.

It's gonna be a long wait.

Just how q*eer though?

Because I heard,

some-someone told me

there was like, degrees,

like a spectrum?

Yeah, I'm super g*y.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

Well.

Tomorrow's closer

than yesterday, huh?

You'll see it soon enough,

the boat.

The boat.

Okay.

Say hi to Olga for me, okay?

She always did love me

better than you.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

True.

(DOOR CLOSES)

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

You called.

Guess what?

I found the boat.

SYD: (ON PHONE)

Babe, that's great news.

What's it like?

I don't know,

I haven't seen it yet.

But Cole's been

storing it for me,

and he's gonna take

me there tomorrow.

SYD:

Your childhood sweetheart?

I mean, the guy you kinda left

at the alter, so to speak?

Yeah, him.

SYD: (ON PHONE)

How was seeing him?

Easier than expected.

I mean, he's been storing

my boat for me all these yea.

Wow.

Why?

HAILEY: (ON PHONE)

I mean,

he knew I'd want it someday.

He knows you that well?

HAILEY: (ON PHONE)

I guess so.

I mean, we did grow up together.

(SIGHS)

I'm nervous.

SYD: (ON PHONE)

About seeing the boat?

Coffin, as Olga calls it.

SYD: (ON PHONE)

Harsh.

I know.

I'll let you know how it goes.

SYD: (ON PHONE)

Hey, do I need to worry

about anything?

Like, Cole?

He's helping me, Syd.

Okay.

Well, I can't wait to hear

more about the boat.

I love you.

(HAILEY MAKES KISSING SOUND)

(HAILY SIGHS)

Okay.

A.M.

Hello, Miss Rose.

You look wonderful today.

Hello, John Henry.

That's lovely.

You must love working around

so many beautiful books.

You don't see many

like that anymore.

I thought you'd like it.

This one just came

in this morning.

Matter of fact,

it came in for you.

Shakespeare.

Maybe tea later?

(ROSE GIGGLES)

Doesn't he seem like a nice man?

When you've got it,

you should flaunt it!

(LAUGHING)

HAILEY:

Oh gosh, you little minx.

And while you're making sure

that those arms are circulating.

Hailey!

That sl*t friend of

yours had the boat?

And front.

Um, what are you wearing?

And forward.

Belly dancing.

I gotta teach belly dancing.

Got a problem with that?

- (BEADS CLINKING)

- (EXOTIC MUSIC PLAYING)

You teach people?

Come dance with us!

FRANNY:

Hailey!

Look what the cat dragged in!

Franny, get over here.

Franny!

Jiggle your arse

back in here, girl.

- Catch up later.

- Okay.

- We'll see you.

- Yeah.

OLGA:

Now we're gonna try

the movement from side to sid,

just with the feet

in the middle,

but always being aware of

what the hands are doing.

They're like serpents, writhe

like sexual organs, ladies.

Hips are like water.

You hear that?

Franny, I know you do.

Get in there.

Anyway, back to belly.

Up, that's it.

Don't forget about...

What's your real name?

(SIRENS WAILING)

What happened?

Well, our Olga

was never very good

at accepting help.

Isn't that right, sister?

How about we let her rest?

(ALL MURMURING)

Keep her hydrated,

the stress down, rest.

She should see a doctor

for a checkup ASAP.

I'll make sure of it.

Thanks.

She must be so happy

to have you back home.

I know how much she misses you.

Really?

It's a shame you were

born with such a handicap.

Your mother.

She never really

learned how to express

positive feelings

very well, did she?

You get your hypersensitivity

from your dad.

Also a curse.

Well, I'll leave you be.

You call me if you

need anything, okay?

Thanks, Franny.

She really should see

her doctor though.

- Take her in soon, okay?

- I will.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

Okay.

FRANNY:

Good Lord!

Johnny?

Who would do this to you?

It was Hailey.

FRANNY:

Here, I'll unlock you

in the back.

Now no more downhill, okay?

Okay.

Let's go.

Oh my god.

That Hailey.

HAILEY:

She's okay?

I fainted, so what?

Ugh, I'm fine.

Go away.

Both of yous.

Come here, dear.

Come here.

(ROSE SIGHING)

It's all right.

(CRICKETS CHIRPING)

ROSE:

Well, it sounds like Syd

is good for you.

I'm used to being ignored,

and Syd totally smothers me.

- With love.

- Yeah.

Lucky you.

Wait.

Wait, wait, wait.

Because Dad died too soon

and left you in utter pain,

unmanageable, really,

you figure if you ever

love someone that much again,

and they die

for whatever reason,

you're gonna have to go

through all that pain again,

making you think that

life is probably easier

if you never love

anyone anymore,

so you subconsciously

sabotage yourself,

never letting yourself

love or be loved

so you never have

to feel that pain.

Wow.

I should be a therapist.

Uh.

That's a sad life, isn't it?

Don't make me sound so pathetic.

I... look, I love Syd.

And I'm just not used to someone

showing so much love so easily.

- Calling bullshit.

- What?

Cole, for one.

Dad.

Me.

He kind of died in there.

This boat made

your dad a happy man.

it's a good thing.

Okay, I'm ready.

It's exciting, but it's scary.

The boat is wrecked.

Oh.

It's just a goddam boat.

You're being a goddam baby.

I'll give you

his damn bowling ball

But no more.

I'm all in.

So I'm just gonna say

Are you drunk?

Um, is your sister all right?

Oh, she's fine.

This is what you call fine?

Have you lost your marbles?

Oh my god, you are drunk.

Babe, I've never seen you

drunk before.

Babe, listen.

This place is so screwed.

It just proves how

messed up my family,

and look, I, is.

Will you still want me

even though you see

how messed up we are?

And, and can I stay perfect

in your pretty eyes?

Oh babe, come here.

(KISSES)

Look.

Memo update.

I know you, Hailey.

Nothing about here

is gonna change that.

Back to your sister.

Are you sure that

we shouldn't be worried?

Hailey, the woman

wrote a suicide note

in red lipstick.

Oh, she just does that.

- Does that?

- Yeah.

Look, I'm so sorry for...

- Everything?

- Yeah, I know.

I know.

But I'm here now.

And I'm gonna help

you find your sister.

Come on.

What is going on, girl?

Oh, Rose.

She left one of her notes.

Don't look at me like that.

What is it with everyone?

What did you do to your sister?

Nothing, just told

her that I was leaving.

Your intention to k*ll

everyone around here?

Go back to your easy life,

far, far away from here!

I'm sure Dad would be

turning in his grave.

Whoa, you don't get

to say that to me.

We're all you have, Hailey!

You are all I have.

I'm gonna call Olga,

let her know that

you're both alive and well.

- Mom?

- I'm here, dear.

Hailey was gonna let me die.

I know, dear.

Rose, love.

You have got to stop

climbing into hospital beds

whenever you want.

Really sick people need them.

It's time to check yourself

into the Butterscotch Palace.

So, uh, on a scale of one to 10,

how average of a family

would you say

yours is in this town?

Come on.

I had to hear it from...

Marshall's sister Wendy's cousin

Mallory's ex-boyfriend Hamish.

Him.

That you were g*y-ish.

Living out West.

All I want is for Rose to have

someone next to her

when I'm gone.

Soon you'll be her only family.

Yeah, well at least

you two had each other.

You made your decision.

You don't seem very

bothered by all this.

Made my peace.

Carsick.

Carsick!

Puke, and I'll have

to take us home.

I'm sorry I'm an overeater

instead of a bulimic.

This could be my last meal.

Imagine if I died tonight,

and the last thing I got to t

was barbecued baloney?

I thought dying was supposed

to make a person,

I don't know, nicer.

You're an atheist.

BBQ!

- Oh!

- Oh!

Great!

Olga, you are looking great.

much for you, huh?

I was worth it.

I'm sorry.

I am so sorry...

...for everything,

I did this.

No. Come here.

Stop trying to be special.

Now, according to feng shui,

we should place it right here.

In the west.

Why not in the east?

No.

Place it in the east,

it'll bring more kids around.

I sure as hell don't want that.

Oh yeah, such

Anybody want another beer?

Top me up.

Get over here.

You're all right.

Stupid kid.

You said he drowned!

Yeah, I did.

After he had a goddam

heart attack.

What difference does it make?

He died.

Alone.

One way or the other,

he would have died.

You made me feel guilty

for not being there!

I can't make you feel anything!

I didn't find out till

nearly a year later,

and then what

difference did it make?

If I was there, I could've

saved him from drowning,

not heart failure.

Well I wasn't thinking of that.

- I'm not perfect, you know.

- Yeah, that's for sure.

Hailey, sometimes

you just gotta buck up

and face reality.

We all live in reality here.

Me, your father, Rose, Cole...

I can't believe you conned me

into coming back here.

Don't look at me.

It was Mom.

- I just made the call.

- Yeah, right.

Because I want you to

have peace, arseholes.

I want Rose to feel safe and

have someone when I'm gone.

Hailey, there are big pains

when you face your

problems head on,

but they go away eventually.

They linger forever

when you run.

Don't talk to me about

facing your problems.

It is way worse to be

abandoned by somebody

who was right next to you.

No love.

No touch.

You made me feel like

I was never good enough,

like I couldn't win,

like I couldn't find

a way to make you love me,

and that's all

that I ever wanted.

I just wanted you to love me!

I do.

Do what?

You weren't the easiest kid

to love.

Oh!

I did the best I could.

Okay?

I'm sorry I didn't love you

the way you wanted.

But I didn't know

that I had a choice,

or I could love any different.

Least you had a father

who loved you.

And you had food on the table.

Think it was easy for me,

picking my father up off

the floor every night,

and putting him to bed?

Quitting school at 15

so I could get a job

to help my mother?

Franny and I didn't

have the privilege

to run away like you.

Oh, Hailey!

(OLGA SIGHS)

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.

JOHNNY:

Hailey!

I'm going down!

HAILEY:

Hey Johnny!

You want some company!

JOHNNY:

Come here, come on!

Hurry up!

Let's go!

(tense music)

HAILEY:

I'm coming!

(BOTH LAUGHING)

(HAILEY WHOOPING)

(BOTH HOWLING AND LAUGHING)

(HAILEY CHEERING)

(BOTH LAUGHING)

(HAILEY WHOOPING)

(HAILEY WHOOPS)

(BOTH HOWLING)

Whoa!

- (CHAIR CRASHES)

- Oh, oh!

- Oh!

- (WHEEL SPINNING)

- Better go help.

- Yeah.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

It's okay.

(ALL LAUGHING)

(OLGA LAUGHING)

I'm gonna go lay down.

It's okay.

Oh my god.

(ALL LAUGHING)

HAILEY:

Olga died soon after.

Treat everyday

like it's your last,

because one day you'll

be dead as a doorknob,

and useless to the rest of us.

(SLURPS)

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

Here's Olga.

Together again.

HAILEY:

John Henry started

hanging around more.

I thank the high

heavens for that.

I've come to pay my respects.

Hello, John Henry.

You look very handsome

in your funeral clothes.

- Same goes to you.

- (ROSE GIGGLES)

- It's good to see you.

- You too.

Thanks.

A toast to Olga.

(ROSE GIGGLES)

May she drive God as crazy

as she did all of us.

(ALL LAUGHING)

- Amen.

- Amen!

- Oh!

- (LAUGHING)

Oh!

JOHN HENRY:

Got me too.

ROSE:

Oh, you are part

of the family now.

HAILEY:

One last thing to do.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

- Okay, hold it like this.

- All right.

COLE:

A little higher.

- HAILEY: Higher?

- COLE: Yeah, yeah.

HAILEY:

There?

Yeah, aim it right for the bow.

I shouldn't, right?

sh**t 'it, Blossom, do it!

- (HAILEY LAUGHS)

- Blow it up!

Blow that m*therf*cker up!

Ready?

- (FLARE FIRES)

- ROSE: Oh!

(BOTH LAUGHING)

- (FIREWORKS POPPING)

- (ALL LAUGHING)

The stars shining

like the stars

Were shining on the night

The night that we first

Oh, I'm happy!

- (ALL LAUGHING)

- (FIREWORKS EXPLODING)

The waves, the waves crash

- (expl*si*n BOOMS)

- (ALL SHOUT EXCITEDLY)

Were crashing on the sand

The place where we first

- (ALL LAUGHING)

- (FIREWORKS EXPLODING)

And I'll write you

Write you from a train

I'll write you

The rhythm of the rain

A poem with no metre

and no verse

A love letter

(KISSING)

With no words

Days, the days pass

in a haze

Making up the maze

Of memories

Again, I think of you again

I wonder when

I wonder when

And I'll write

I'll write you from a train

And I'll write you

The rhythm of the rain

A poem with no metre

and no verse

CREW:

Alpha mark.

Well you know that

everything changes

As soon as you

drink from my cup

(INDISTINCT CHATTER ON RADIO)

And all that be

All that be

As long as you get me

enough

Oh, as long as you get me

enough

Uh-huh, as long as

you get me enough

Uh-Huh, as long as

you get me enough

Ooh!

(LAUGHS)

Love that song.

Safe to say I was listening to

the wrong water's edge song.

(ALL LAUGHING)

Listening to "Smoke on

the Water", weren't you?

(ALL LAUGHING)

It was definitely metal.

Definitely.

(ALL LAUGHING)

CREW: (ON RADIO)

You guys are amazing,

you are brilliant.

These are words

coming from Sandi,

but we all, um, confirm.

(ALL LAUGHING)

Oh sh*t.

CREW: (ON RADIO)

Okay guys, here we go.

- Such a gong show.

- Let's playback.

- Okay.

- Oh fack.

- Wait.

- Oh, here we go.

Okay.

Ocean blue,

I don't usually swim

But I followed you in, boy

I followed you in

Ocean blue

I don't usually swim

But I followed you in, boy

I followed you in

Starts as a feeling

And ends up a story

Strange to each other

And lost in a country

Lost in our bodies

With nothing to hold us

We drifted together

Out past the breakers

Ocean blue

I don't usually swim

But I followed you in, boy

I followed you in

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

I wish I didn't have to

Hold all our secrets

I feel like I'm being

Pulled down in them

When I look to the memories

I get tangled under

When I hold onto you

Then I start sinking

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

I'm at the bottom

If you wanna find me

I'm at the bottom

I'm alone in the memories
