:40:00
It's what they call
people around here
:40:03
who, um, "know" things.
:40:06
So, Dennis is
forbidden the sea.
:40:10
But being free
:40:12
Newfie and 21, he goes, anyway.
:40:14
What? And that's
enough...?
:40:16
Death storm.
:40:17
A massive wave cracks
her steel hull amidships
:40:20
a one-inch crack
from starboard to port.
:40:23
Men go in the water.
Dennis is lost.
:40:25
After about a week
:40:28
they come to Jack and tell him
the search is to be called off.
:40:33
Jack stands like a stone.
:40:36
Then he turns-- quick,
the way he does-- and says...
:40:41
"He's alive...
:40:44
and I know where."
:40:48
So, off he goes,
out to sea
:40:50
on his own,
in just a skiff
:40:53
and finds Dennis.
:40:56
Can you imagine
the odds?
:40:58
Finds him.
Finds him.
:41:00
Both arms broken,
99% dead.
:41:04
The boy comes to.
:41:06
And Jack says to him,
"If you ever step foot
:41:09
in a boat again,
I'll drown you myself."
:41:12
And do you know
what Dennis said?
:41:16
(whispers):
Say it fast.
:41:17
He said...
:41:18
"All fishing licenses
are spoken for.
:41:20
I'd appreciate it
if you gave me yours."
:41:22
Jack looked in his eyes
and they never spoke again.
:41:24
JACK:
Quoyle... you got
:41:26
the "Shipping News"
written up yet?
:41:27
Oh, yes.
:41:29
(clears throat)
:41:33
There's nothing here.
:41:37
Boats in, boats out.
What else is there?
:41:39
If I knew, I'd write it myself.
:41:43
I took a chance on you, Quoyle.
:41:46
Don't let me down.
:41:53
(door closes)
