"[MOTORBOAT engine revving]" "[inaudible dialogue]" "MATT:" "My friends on the mainland think just because I live in Hawaii, I live in paradise." "Like a permanent vacation." "We're all just out here sipping mai tais, shaking our hips, and catching waves." "Are they insane?" "Do they think we're immune to life?" "How can they possibly think our families are less screwed up our cancers less fatal our heartaches less painful?" "Hell, I haven't been on a surfboard in 1 5 years." "For the last 23 days I've been living in a paradise of lvs and urine bags and tracheal tubes." "Paradise?" "Paradise can go fuck itself." "[EKG BEEPlNG]" "This is Elizabeth Thorson King, my wife." "Twenty-three days ago she was launched from a powerboat during a race and hit her head." "Almost drowned." "When I heard about the accident and about the coma, I wasn't even in town." "I was on Maui, on business, and we hadn't spoken in three days." "In a way, we hadn't really spoken in months." "If you're doing this to get my attention, Liz, it's working." "I'm ready now." "I'm ready to talk. I'm ready to change." "I'm ready to be a real husband and a real father." "Just wake up." "Please, Liz, just wake up." "[PHONE buzzing]" "Hey, Noe, what's up?" "NOE [OVER PHONE]:" "Matt, Scottie's teacher's on the phone." "She says it's urgent." "Okay, put her on." "COUNSELOR:" "We don't think these photographs are appropriate for Scottie to be sharing with her classmates." "Some of them went home quite disturbed, and we got some angry calls from parents." "Yeah, she's kind of been going to town on this whole picture-taking thing." "I had no idea." "Mr. King, we see this every day." "Children acting out in school when something is wrong at home." "And your family is facing a devastating crisis." "Have you been engaging Scottie in talking about everything that's going on?" "Yes, yes, absolutely." "COUNSELOR:" "Encouraging her to express her feelings?" "That's crucial." "Mm-hm. I understand." "MATT:" "What's the matter with you, showing those pictures of Mom for your art project?" "SCOTTlE:" "I'm a photographer, Dad, a real photographer." "No." "You're overdoing it, is what you're doing." "I saw it in a book." "Some famous photographer lady took pictures of her mom in the hospital while she was dying, and they're considered art." "That's what I'm doing." "First of all, your mother is very sick, but she isn't dying." "And second of all, we don't share personal stuff with strangers." "What's going on with your mom is private." "I'm hungry." "Can we get burgers?" "No." "MATT:" "The last time I took care of Scottie by myself was when she was 3." "Now she's 1 0, and I have no idea what to do with her." "SCOTTlE:" "But I wanna eat now, not in an hour." "MATT:" "And with Elizabeth in the hospital, she's testing me." "I'm the backup parent, the understudy." "This is Matt King. I'm returning your call." "How can I help you?" "BARB [OVER PHONE]:" "It's your daughter Scottie." "She's been texting some awful things to my daughter, Lani, and I'd like her to stop." "Huh." "BARB:" "Here's the latest one:" ""We all know you grew pubes over the summer."" "I mean, my daughter can't help it if she's developing a little early for her age." "You think that's nice?" "Well, that's not like her at all." "She's usually very sweet." "As you may know, her mother isn't well." "Maybe this is how she's dealing with it." "BARB:" "I'm very sorry about your family situation, Mr. King but my daughter comes home from school in tears." "Yeah, no, I get it I'm sorry." "BARB:" "Scottie's the one who should be sorry." "I want her to come over and apologize and I don't ever want her to text my daughter again." "If she doesn't apologize, I'll take it up with the dean." "You can't buy your way out of this." "Can you give me an address?" "Thank you for coming by." "Hi." "I forgot to mention Scottie said she didn't wanna be Lani's partner at the rock wall because she didn't wanna fall into my daughter's butt crack." "That doesn't even make sense." "Ah." "MAN [ON TV]:" "Shirts off." "Shirts off." "Good, good, good, good job." "I don't think she has any idea." "That was very good, Bobby Brown." "Yeah." "Here." "Because she goes, "l'm living at this." "I'll meet you out in front." So...." "Scottie, you have something you wanna say to Lani?" "Sorry." "It's okay." "MAN:" "He knows he's going away for a while." "If he's got a chance, he's bolting." "Great." "Well, it was nice meeting you both." "You should come over for a swim or a hike or something, okay?" "I don't think she's sorry at all." "She's gonna keep on doing it, I can tell." "MATT:" "No, she won't." "Look." "Scottie, you're gonna stop, right?" "And you're really, really sorry, right?" "MAN:" "Seems like every time I forget to pray, we don't catch a guy for three days." "I know, I'm telling you, man." "BARB:" "Oh, and, Mr. King?" "Yeah?" "Good luck with the sale." "They say your decision will have a major impact on Hawaii's real-estate world." "Not to mention the whole landscape of Kauai." "Hundreds of millions of dollars, yeah?" "Yeah. lt's a big decision." "BARB:" "My husband's family's from Kauai." "Hanapepe, born and bred." "They hope you don't sell." "You don't say." "All that traffic it's gonna make." "MATT:" "As if Liz's coma weren't enough already the whole goddamn state is following my decision on who's gonna buy 25,000 pristine acres on Kauai that my family has owned since the 1 860s." "A lot of my cousins are broke, and the sale will make us all very, very rich." "My family meets in six days to approve a buyer." "But ever since my father died, I'm the sole trustee which means I alone hold all the cards." "My great-great-grandmother was Princess Margaret Ke'alohilani one of the last direct descendants of King Kamehameha." "She was originally supposed to marry her cousin but she fell in love with Edward King, her haole banker whose parents had been missionaries." "Between his land deals and her huge inheritance generations of their descendants, all of us have watched the past unfurl millions into our laps through leases and sales." "Now something called the rule against perpetuities is forcing us to dissolve the trust and we're selling our last huge parcel of virgin Hawaiian land." "Unlike a lot of my cousins, I haven't blown my share of the trust money." "Just like my father before me I live only on the income from my law practice." "I don't want my daughters growing up spoiled and entitled." "Liz always accuses me of stinginess, but I agree with my father." "You give your children enough money to do something, but not enough to do nothing." "NOE:" "Matt." "Your cousins are here." "MATT:" "Not only am I the sole trustee, but I specialize in real-estate transaction law so a few of the more involved cousins have been meeting with me to analyze bids." "ALL:" "Hey." "HAL:" "How's it, Matt?" "MATT:" "Cousin Hal, Cousin Milo, Cousin Stan Cousin Six, Cousin Wink, Cousin Connie..." "How you doing?" "Okay?" "MATT: ...and Cousin Dave, both of whom oppose the sale entirely." "Good to see you." "MATT:" "Don't be fooled by appearances." "In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen." "All right, so where are we?" "MATT:" "Proposals are virtually the same." "Hotels, shopping centers, condos and golf courses." "I have some major concerns...." "MATT:" "A Chicago group is offering half a billion dollars." "But we're leaning towards a lower bid from a guy named Don Holitzer." "He's actually from Kauai." "Made a fortune in Silicon Valley." "Old Cousin Hugh is pushing us in that direction, and I say, why not?" "The money would come from Hawaii and stay in Hawaii." "STAN:" "There's nothing about saving the heiau." "You know, it's ridiculous." "And there's no beach access like they say, and that's really, really...." "MATT:" "Elizabeth's gonna make it out okay." "I know it." "It's not her time yet." "She'll wake up." "Scottie and Alexandra will have their mother back." "And we'll talk about our marriage." "I know I can make things right." "I'll sell the land, quit my practice, and buy her whatever she wants." "A big boat." "A house in France." "We'll take a trip around the world, just the two of us." "We'll get close again, like the early days." "JOHNSTON:" "I wish I had better news, Matthew." "But Dr. Chun and Dr. Mueller and I agree that her condition it's deteriorating." "She has no eye movement, she has no pupillary responses she has no brain-stem reflexes whatsoever." "I mean, the machines can keep her alive, but the quality of her life would be so poor." "Basically the way it is now." "She'll never be the way she was, Matt." "Never." "We know that now." "Look, uh...." "l can't tell you how sorry I am to tell you this." "And you do have your daughters." "There's just nothing more that we can do." "So if we do go ahead and take her off the machines...." "There's no "if."" "It's "when." l have a legal obligation." "You know that." "How long will she last?" "Well, it's hard to say." "It could be a few days, it could be a couple of weeks." "For planning purposes, I think you should work off the shortest possible scenario." "I know I've gotta get the ball rolling on the organ donations right away." "Matt." "Elizabeth has many friends." "She has a big life." "If you're gonna let everybody know to say goodbye which is the typical protocol for these situations, you start now." "Then when the last day comes they'll feel more ready." "Or as ready as they can feel for something like this." "I'm so sorry, Matt." "[EKG BEEPlNG]" "kai:" "Hey." "MARK:" "Hey." "There he is." "kai:" "How's it going?" "What's going on?" "She was looking a little pale lately, all cooped up here." "I know she'd be mortified if nobody helped her out with some lipstick and blush." "I know she'll grill me." "Of course, Kai's getting her caught up on the latest gossip." "kai:" "Well, I don't wanna start from scratch later." "Oh, and, Matt, uh, on the way here we stopped by and put some meals in your fridge, all ready to nuke." "Thanks." "kai:" "Mm-hm." "So, what's the latest, anyway, Matt?" "Any updates?" "Just more of the same." "Just keeping the kidneys and other vital organs working and hoping for the best." "The food at the club is so good." "Yeah, they do a good job here." "Come here." "Mm." "Why is it called a jellyfish?" "It's not a fish, it's not jelly." "I have no idea." "You ask good questions, Scottie." "You're getting too smart for me." "I'm gonna ask Mom when she wakes up." "Do you think she's gonna know everything she used to?" "I don't know." "[hawaiian music playing OVER SPEAKERS]" "I'll be right back." "Hi, Matt." "Hi, Scottie." "MATT:" "Troy." "So, what's going on?" "I mean, how's Elizabeth doing?" "The same." "Well, you know, I went and visited her last week and, uh, she looked pretty good." "Then why'd you ask?" "I don't know." "I guess I just wanted to know what the latest is." "You know, I've been praying for her every day, you guys, really hard, seriously." "And, well, what I meant to say was when I was there, I talked to her and she moved her hand." "And then I was, like-- l was encouraged." "I thought that that was an encouraging sign." "That's enough." "I really think she heard me." "Look, Troy, go to your friends." "There's no hard feelings." "Let's just leave it alone." "I told you, Matt." "The water that day was so choppy." "I've told you a hundred times." "What happened to her could've happened to me." "The ocean was brutal that day." "Ask anybody." "You weren't supposed to be driving." "She was supposed to be driving." "She wanted me to drive." "She's the one that told me to pass the other boat before the turn." "You know, it's just your whole attitude towards me." "I didn't-- You know, I feel terrible about it." "Plus, I almost drowned myself when the boat caps" "Hey." "Scottie!" "Hey, Scottie!" "Scottie!" "Hey." "Listen." "Don't pay any attention to that guy." "That guy's a dope." "I hate him." "Yeah, I know." "Hey, let's do something crazy." "Let's drive to the airport, we'll hop over to the Big Island and we'll surprise your sister." "What do you say?" "Right now?" "Yeah, it'll be fun." "She's not expecting us." "And we can bring her home." "I think she should be with us, don't you?" "Don't you miss her?" "I miss her." "Yeah. I mean, I'm out of school." "She should be too." "There you go." "Okay." "Let's go." "Come on." "Hey, Troy." "MATT:" "Somehow it feels natural to find a daughter of mine on a different island." "A family seems exactly like an archipelago:" "All part of the same whole but still separate and alone and always drifting slowly apart." "That's the wrong door." "Go back to sleep, Braelynn. lt's okay." "[knocking ON DOOR]" "Wake up your roommate, please." "Um, Alex isn't here." "Where is she?" "I think she's somewhere outside." "Where outside?" "friend:" "Hit it that way." "ALEXANDRA:" "No, between there." "Fuckhead." "friend:" "Why are you hitting it that way?" "ALEXANDRA:" "You're supposed to be going through" " Dude." "Hey, girls!" "What do you think you're doing?" "ALEXANDRA:" "Oh, shit, here." "friend:" "Run." "Fuck." "Hi, Alex. lt's me, Scottie." "I pay $35,000 a year for this kind of crap not to happen." "Alex." "ALEXANDRA:" "Dad?" "My fucking dad is here." "You need to watch your language." "This is unacceptable behavior." "[laughing]" "What's up, Dad?" "What's happening?" "You need to come home and see your mom." "Fuck Mom." "Really?" "What did I just say about the language?" "You could get expelled for all of this." "MATT:" "What is it that makes the women in my life wanna destroy themselves?" "Elizabeth with her motorcycles and speedboats and drinking." "Alexandra with her drugs and older guys." "And Scottie." "With Elizabeth gone what kind of a chance will she have with just me?" "MATT:" "Go to bed." "[EXHALES]" "All right." "There we go." "I don't like eggs." "Why didn't you tell me before I made them?" "I thought they were for you." "Good morning." "How you feeling?" "Hung over?" "Why am I not surprised?" "I thought you were supposed to be getting your act together." "I have gotten my act together." "I was just drinking." "I've been doing really well, actually." "Nobody ever seems to notice that." "Grades are better." "I was in that stupid play you guys didn't bother to see." "Do you even remember the name of it?" "That's what I thought." "So what?" "What if I got drunk on the one night you happened to stop by?" "So fucking what?" "Hey, hey, watch your language around Scottie." "SCOTTlE:" "I don't care." "[sighs]" "Anyway." "Listen, it's nice to see you." "Welcome home." "Here." "You want some eggs?" "[ALEXANDRA CHUCKLES]" "ALEXANDRA:" "I can't believe that." "What?" "Heh." "Oh, my God." "Uh-huh." "Hey, Alex?" "Well, what'd she say?" "[CHUCKLES]" "Can I talk to you for a minute?" "Uh...." "The pool's really dirty." "Uh-huh." "Wait, what?" "Hey, I really need to talk to you." "She didn't say" "She didn't say anything to me." "Uh-huh." "Ha, ha." "Oh, my God, I can't believe she" "Hey, uh" " Yeah, yeah, I gotta go." "Okay, I'll see you later." "Um...." "What day does the pool guy come?" "He comes...." "You know, I don't know when he comes." "Awesome." "Sid's coming over." "Who's Sid?" "A really good friend from Punahou." "We were in school together for years." "Oh." "Okay." "He wants to be here for me with all this shit happening." "Do I know his parents?" "Nope." "He might stay over too. ls that cool?" "Hey, Alex, over here." "What the fuck?" "Get out of my underwear, you freak." "No." "Okay, no, no, no." "Don't I look divine?" "Back inside." "Put on a swimsuit." "Why?" "Now." "Real good job you're doing." "That's part of why I brought you here." "You have to help me." "I don't know what to do with her." "Maybe if you spent more time with her, she wouldn't act like such a complete spaz." "Get her out of town." "Go camp on Kauai." "That's what Mom used to do with me whenever I was losing it." "Hey, listen." "No, listen." "Listen to me." "Your mother's not well." "Yeah, obviously." "No." "They just told me she's not gonna wake up." "We know for sure now." "The doctors are gonna stop caring for her." "Your mother wanted it this way." "She has this...." "She has this will, see, that says that we have to do it this way." "We both do." "You understand what I'm saying?" "That's why I got you." "Honey, we're letting her go." "[SOBS]" "[crying]" "Why did you have to tell me in the goddamn pool?" "Alex." "Alex." "What?" "What do you want?" "Uh" "[sighs]" "I just found out yesterday." "We have to go through this thing together, you and Scottie and me." "And I have to go around and tell people what's happening." "Family and a few close friends." "Sometimes I'm gonna need you to come with me." "Sometimes I need you to watch Scottie." "You want me to go around with you and tell people that Mom's gonna die?" "What's the point of that?" "Breaking the news, watching them cry, dealing with their emotions?" "How depressing is that gonna be?" "Just call them." "Alex, nobody wants to do any of this." "But we have to tell your grandpa and Tutu and a few friends." "They have the right to know, and they have the right to say goodbye." "I don't wanna talk about Mom with anyone." "Look, whatever you two fought about over Christmas, you have to drop it." "Grow up." "You love your mother, your mother loves you." "I can't drop it." "You have to." "You really don't have a clue, do you?" "Dad...." "Dad, Mom was cheating on you." "That is what we fought about." "When I was home at Christmas, I caught her with a guy." "It made me sick to see her near you." "I went back to school thinking that that was it, that I was just done with her." "I was gonna call and tell you everything and...." "And then the accident happened and...." "l was waiting until she woke up, I guess." "[sobbing]" "You didn't even suspect, right?" "Right?" "It disgusted me too." "You're always so busy." ""Caught her with a guy," what does that mean?" "I was on my way to swim in the Black Point pool with Brandy and suddenly I see Mom and some douche bag walking into a house." "His house, I guess." "Just some guy, it could be anybody." "No, he had his hand on her ass." "It was gross." "Then what?" "Then nothing." "Then they went into the house." "A few days later, I told her I knew what she was doing." "And?" "And first, she acted like she had no idea what I was talking about." "Like I'm fucking blind." "And then she got, like, super mad and yelled and denied it." "That was when I decided that I didn't want anything more to do with her." "Who is he?" "I don't know, some guy." "What's he look like?" "Dark hair." "Oh." "Watch your sister." "Hello?" "Kai?" "Mark?" "It's me, Matt." "Hey." "kai:" "No, it's not." "I'm just saying you always wanna have-- MARK:" "I'm not a mind reader." "Hello?" "kai:" "Wait." "Hello?" "It's me, it's Matt." "Oh, hey, Matt." "MATT:" "is this a bad time?" "Uh, no, no, we're just fighting." "Uh, come on in." "You want coffee?" "You want something to drink?" "No, thanks." "MARK:" "Fighting about something stupid." "kai:" "It's not stupid." "MARK:" "It is stupid." "kai:" "He wants us to throw parties and have people over, which we do, but who winds up doing the work?" "Me, I do." "MARK:" "You don't have to do anything." "That's the whole point." "kai:" "I do." "It doesn't have to be work." "You don't have to clean and buy an outfit." "I'm supposed to be disgusting?" "Ugh." "And think up a goddamn theme cocktail." "We could just invite people over to hang out and drink whatever we have." "Let's talk about it later." "Oh, shit, Matt, is everything okay?" "is there any news?" "In fact, there is." "I'll tell you about it in a minute." "Who is he?" "Does she love him?" "Who is he?" "Matt...." "l'm sorry to put you in that position, but I'm not really the one who put you there, am I?" "I'd like to know who the guy is that my wife was seeing." "You're angry." "You have very keen powers of observation." "You know what?" "I think we should talk about this later." "You need to cool it." "is it Troy?" "That fucking Neanderthal." "You don't know him." "kai:" "Mark, don't you even." "Shame on you." "You're supposed to be her friend." "MARK:" "Well, guess what." "I'm Matt's friend too, okay?" "And this is a unique and dramatic situation, and I would wanna know." "Yeah, well, don't betray her when she's not even here to defend herself." "Matt, look, you might not be able to hear this right now but it's not her fault." "Your marriage was not...." "Just" " She was lonely." "So you're gonna talk to me in clichés about women?" "Nothing is ever a woman's fault." "Was it still going on when she had the accident?" "But I stayed out of it." "Any time Kai would bring it up, I would walk away." "You what?" "Probably egged her on." "Add a little drama in your life without any actual risk." "Who do you think you're protecting, Kai?" "She doesn't need your protection." "It's over." "She's gonna die." "Don't say that." "It's true. I was gonna tell you yesterday." "She's never gonna wake up." "You hear me?" "Do you understand what I'm saying?" "She's gone." "We're pulling the plug." "You were putting lipstick on a corpse." "[crying]" "MARK:" "Come on, Matt." "That's a little intense." "[sighs]" "Does she love him?" "How can you ask about him when she's gonna die?" "Who cares?" "Yes, she loves him." "Loved him, whatever." "She was crazy about him." "She was gonna...." "She was gonna ask you for a divorce." "You still haven't told me who he is." "I guess it doesn't matter." "MARK:" "Matt." "Matt." "Brian Speer." "His name's Brian Speer, with two E's." "[crying]" "[ALEXANDRA laughing]" "ALEXANDRA:" "They're just, like, cheap." "They're just like, "Get it over with, cut corners."" "Hi, Daddy." "Dad, this is, uh, Sid." "Hello, Sid." "What's up, bro?" "Don't ever do that to me again." "We're gonna see your grandparents." "And, Scottie, Auntie Esther's gonna come watch you." "Dad, Sid's coming with us, okay?" "Yeah, listen, Sid, uh what's going on this week is a family matter, you understand?" "Sid's not gonna be interested in meeting your grandparents." "He's gonna be bored stiff." "Dad, I told you that he was gonna be with me." "I'll be a lot more civil with him around." "What can I say?" "It's like reading Korean." "MATT:" "Scott, if you want to, I can walk you through it." "Jibber-jabber." "It's an advance directive." "It's basically her instructions on what procedures she wants." "In this case-- l know goddamn well what it says." "Says she doesn't want us sitting around watching her spoil like milk." "Says if there's nothing the doctors can do, she'd rather just get on with it." "Elizabeth had the good sense to write this thing here." "She was always a thoughtful girl, a strong girl." "Hell of a lot stronger than her brother." "Barry whines his way through life." "Might even be a homosexual, for all I know." "MATT:" "Yeah, Scott, I don't think so." "And she's stronger than you, Matt." "She lived more in a year than you lived in a decade sitting in that office, hoarding all your cash." "All that money you refuse to use." "What the hell good is it?" "Now you and your family are getting ready to cash in your chips." "What the hell for?" "Maybe if you let my baby have her own boat bought her safe equipment maybe let her go on those shopping sprees women like maybe she wouldn't have gone in for those thrill sports." "Maybe if you'd provided more thrills at home." "And you, Alexandra." "Putting your mother through hell when all she was trying to do was instill sense and drive in you." "Shame on you." "Shame on you." "You should try to be more like her." "She was a good girl." "[EXHALES]" "Hi, Alice. lt's me, it's Matt." "It's good to see you." "Good to see you too." "Hey, Tutu." "That's Alexandra." "That's your granddaughter." "That's your son-in-law, Matt." "This is your family." "Well, except for that kid over there." "I don't know who the hell he is." "Who are you?" "What are you doing here?" "He's my friend." "Good afternoon." "Alice, we're going to Queen's Hospital this afternoon and see Elizabeth." "We are?" "Yes." "She needs us, just like when she was a little girl." "We need to see her in the hospital." "So think about what she might wanna have in her room and we'll take it to her and put it next to her bed." "Queen Elizabeth?" "That's wonderful." "I have to put on a nice dress." "Ha, ha. ls she serious?" "Shut up, kid." "Ha, ha." "I've never met a queen before." "[sid laughing] I'm sorry, man. I was just laughing." "It's funny." "I mean, I think she knows she's being funny." "I'm gonna hit you." "That was unreal." "I mean, how often do old people just haul off and fucking coldcock you like that?" "He's hit me a couple of times over the years." "And watch your language." "Can I see it?" "Holy shit." "Hey, could you two just cool it when you're around me?" "Just stop touching each other?" "Whoa, man." "Maybe that's why your wife cheated on you, if you're so against touching." "You little fuck." "Do you get hit a lot?" "I don't know. I've had my share." "Your friend is completely retarded, you know that?" "Hey, man, my little brother's retarded." "Don't use that word in a derogatory fashion." "Oh." "Psych. I don't have a retarded brother." "Sid, you suck." "[sid LAUGHS]" "Speaking of retarded, do you ever wish that, like retarded people or old people would just hurry up?" "Like sometimes I'm waiting for them to cross the street and I'm like, "Come on, already."" "But then I feel bad." "Dad?" "What?" "Don't forget that I know where he lives." "Get in the front seat." "ALEXANDRA:" "So you don't know anything else about him like what he does or if he's married or anything?" "MATT:" "Just his name." "Brian Speer." "Why didn't you ask Kai and Mark?" "I just didn't." "ALEXANDRA:" "Why not?" "I didn't wanna get into it, that's all." "We'll Google him later." "All right." "Um...." "We're almost...." "That's it, that's it, that's the one." "Stop." "The one with the turtle." "MATT:" "That one?" "Yeah, yeah." "MATT:" "There?" "He lives there?" "ALEXANDRA:" "I can't say for sure that he lives there but that's where l saw them." "Should I ring the bell?" "No." "This is stupid." "This is stalking or something. l" "Okay, it's" " We came, we saw." "That's enough." "Let's go." "Well, it's not like we're stalking him exactly."

"Lying there on a ventilator and fucking up my life." "You are relentless." "You know what?" "I was gonna ask you for a divorce someday." "Daddy's little girl." "I'm gonna bring your daughters in now." "Alex is home from school." "Try to be nice, okay?" "All right, here we go." "Okay?" "Hi, Mom." "Look who's here." "Say something, Alex." "Tell her how you were drunk the other night." "Tell her how maybe you're an alcoholic." "MATT:" "Girls, be serious." "Hi, Mom." "Sorry for being bad." "Sorry for wasting your money on expensive private schools." "Money you could have been using on facials and massages and sports equipment." "Sorry for everything." "All right." "I'm sorry we weren't good enough for you, especially Dad." "Stop it." "That's out of line." "Or what?" "You gonna ground me?" "Ship me off to another boarding school?" "Give me a time-out?" "I'll tell you what, goddamn it." "[SMACKS]" "You got served." "Scottie, go in the hall." "SCOTTlE:" "She's the one out of line." "Go find Sid." "He's smoking." "I shouldn't be around second-hand smoke." "Go, let's go." "Now, now, now, go." "Did you spank me?" "You have no right to talk to her that way." "She's gonna die." "What if those were your last words?" "I have every right to speak to her that way." "I'm angry at her." "How can you be so forgiving?" "I'll be angry later." "Let's just think about the good parts." "Don't say that stuff in front of your sister." "Don't spoil her for Scottie." "Say something different." "[sighs]" "Look, Mom, I know that we fought a lot." "I just-- l always wanted to be like you." "I am like you. I'm exactly like you." "You are like her." "Mostly in good ways." "Maybe some bad ways." "Remains to be seen." "Yeah." "Dad, this is Reina." "Reina, this is my sister and Sid." "And that's my mom on the bed." "Hi, everybody." "Hello." "Hi." "So this is your mother?" "I guess it's true." "Should I shake her hand?" "If you want." "No, thanks." "So, uh, Reina, I understand that your grandmother's not feeling well?" "Yeah, it's pretty bad." "She got her stomach operated on and then got some sort of stupid infection or something." "It's pretty gross." "Hmm." "Well, Reina, thank you for stopping by." "Scottie, let me give you some money, and you two can get some ice cream." "Too many carbs." "Too many carbs?" "Well, you could go down to the cafeteria and get some lettuce." "That's okay. I'm done." "You weren't a liar after all." "Don't you wanna hang out?" "No, I should go." "See you at the club." "Hope your mom gets better." "Bye, everybody." "Scottie, what did she mean by "You aren't a liar after all"?" "What did she think you were lying about?" "She didn't believe Mom was sleeping." "So you had to prove to that twat that Mom's in a coma?" "What the fuck is in your skull?" "A bunch of stupid pills?" "Shut up, you motherless whore." "Whoa, whoa." "Easy there, half-pipe." "Where'd you learn to talk like that?" "[PHONE buzzing]" "No, no, no." "ALEXANDRA:" "Hello?" "No, this is the right number." "No, no, I'm his assistant, Sharon." "How may I help you?" "SCOTTlE:" "Who is it?" "Shh, shh." "ALEXANDRA:" "Uh-huh." "Oh." "All right." "All right, so one or the other?" "Okay, I'll tell him." "Mahalo." "That was Bonnie Tanaka, a realtor."

"You've all asked questions about Elizabeth, and I've given vague answers." "But I asked you all here today to tell you that her coma is permanent." "She's not gonna make it." "So this week, tomorrow, in fact as per her wishes we are going to unhook her from life support." "[CROWD murmuring]" "You all know Elizabeth." "She has to do everything on her own." "[sobbing] I wanted to tell you all in person because you are all our dear friends." "You're our best friends." "The girls and I so much appreciate everything you have done for us in the last few weeks." "Bringing food and calling." "WOMAN:" "Can we go see her?" "Yes." "Yes, for God's sakes, yes." "That's the whole point." "Go see her as soon as possible." "That's what I wanna tell you." "All of you. lt should be now, not after." "Everyone who loves Elizabeth deserves a chance to say goodbye." "ALEXANDRA:" "You've lost your mind." "You mean him?" "Tell him to come say goodbye?" "I'll be gone a day or so." "I'll leave in the morning, I'll be back tomorrow night." "If it takes another day, fine." "I'll give it two days." "If I don't find him, at least I tried." "Just drop it, Dad." "You've got way bigger fish to fry than confronting fucking Brian Speer." "You're recording this?" "I'm summarizing a deposition." "How can you work at a time like this?" "How can you go to a movie?" "To get Scottie out of the house." "And you actually wanna tell him to come back and see Mom?" "I think...." "l just think she'd want him to know." "Just call his office and tell him it's an emergency." "No." "On the phone, he can escape." "In person, he's got nowhere to go." "I wanna see his face." "I wanna go too." "No, you're gonna stay here with Scottie." "Fuck that." "Let's all get out of town." "[inaudible dialogue]" "RALPH:" "Yo, Matt King." "MATT:" "Hey, Ralph." "Hey." "Yeah, how's it?" "Great to see you." "Good." "You remember your cousin Ralph." "Yeah."

"So you here to talk to the cousins?" "Make sure everybody's happy with your choice?" "Pay your respects to Hugh?" "No, just a little holoholo, get the kids out of town." "But it is Holitzer, right?" "We all know it's Holitzer." "Cousin Hugh wants him." "They go way back." "I got my misgivings, though, Matt." "There's an argument to be made to max it out." "We only do this once in a lifetime." "I wanna work with you guys, I do." "Whatever the majority decides after the poll, I'll go along with it." "Let's just get it over with, you know?" "All right." "Okay." "How's Elizabeth doing?" "She gonna be okay?" "The same." "Well, she's a tough gal, Matt." "She'll be okay, yeah?" "Yeah." "Where are you guys going?" "Hanalei?" "Princeville." "Come on, I'll give you a ride." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "Come on, kids." "SCOTTlE:" "Where are we going?" "MATT:" "Cousin Ralph's gonna give us a ride." "Hey, Ralph." "Yeah?" "Turn off over here." "Let's go see the land." "Take a last look, huh?" "You got time?" "I got nothing but time." "RALPH:" "I think this is where the golf course is gonna go." "They want the golf course to rival Pebble Beach." "You know, bring in the big boys." "Scottie." "Come on, sweetheart." "ALEXANDRA:" "Careful, Scottie." "Careful." "SCOTTlE:" "I got it." "ALEXANDRA:" "Look." "Sometimes if you look out at the coast, you can see whales."

"Commercial area there." "Houses all through there." "Part of me agrees with the cousins that don't wanna sell." "They're gonna make a stink at the meeting." "Yeah, but we have to." "The trust dissolves in seven years." "If we don't sell, it's just gonna be a train wreck." "But it's a shame, yeah?" "Yeah." "On the other hand, hey, it's just sitting there." "No one's using it." "This way the whole world will be able to enjoy it." "Take a good look, girls." "This is part of your great-great- great-grandmother's inheritance going all the way back to Kamehameha I." "Down there is where Mom and I would camp." "MATT:" "We all did, all our lives." "Lots of memories." "Everything has its time." "What about me?" "I wanna camp." "[sighs]" "I'm supposed to be meeting a friend of mine." "I think he's staying here." "Uh, his name is Brian Speer." "S-P-E-E-R." "I'm sorry, Mr. King." "I'm not shown anybody by that name." "Okay, thanks." "Hey, Scottie." "What's in your suit?" "They're my beach boobs." "Take them out of there right now." "Jesus, Alex." "Why would you let her do that?" "You too, Sid." "I don't know." "Take them out, stupid." "Yeah, Scottie." "Big boobs look kind of fatty." "Any luck?" "Well, the hotels were a dead end, but I took another shot with his office." "He's definitely renting a house in Hanalei." "Probably one of the cottages around the bay." "I think we should go for a walk." "Yeah, let's go." "Scottie!" "SCOTTlE:" "Can we swim with the sharks?" "I read in the hotel magazine how they, like, put you in a cage underwater and then you throw shark feed around, and then the sharks swim right up to you." "Can we do that?" "Scottie, we're not really here to do stuff like that." "SCOTTlE:" "Oh." "Well, what are we here to do, then?" "SCOTTlE:" "How did you and Mom meet?" "MATT:" "I was with a law-school buddy of mine from the mainland." "We were just coming in from paddling, and your mom was on her way out." "And she looked at me and she said:" ""Do you think it's gonna snow today?"" "[ALL chuckling]" "SCOTTlE:" "Did you think she was pretty?" "MATT:" "Oh, she knocked me out." "SCOTTlE:" "I like her stories, like how she streaked at the wedding." "ALEXANDRA:" "Oh, my God." "There's so many like that." "SCOTTlE:" "And the time she beat a wild pig with a shoe." "Ha, ha." "MATT:" "Your mom got chased by a shark once." "ALEXANDRA:" "What?" "When was that?" "MATT:" "We were with Mark and Kai, and your mom was out surfing and she saw a shark right beneath her on a wave." "Let's watch one of these." "No, we are not watching porn." "Give me-- No." "Reina's dad watches porn." "Reina calls them masturbation movies." "She plays them when her parents aren't home, and one time invited boys over to see if they grew down there." "One did." "Reina sounds awesome." "Were you there?" "Did you watch one of those movies?" "No." "Hey, Scottie." "Reina's a fucked-up ho-bag, and you need to stay away from her." "And she's going to be a methhead and she's gonna get used by stupid guys." "She's a twat." "Say it." "She's a twat." "All right." "Okay." "All right, okay." "Stop it." "SCOTTlE:" "She's a twat, twat, twat." "[LAUGHS]" "[DOOR SHUTS] I don't get it. I don't know what to do."

"It's like you don't respect authority." "[toilet FLUSHES]" "Hey." "Hi." "Coming to check on me or something?" "I've been having trouble sleeping lately." "Understandable." "[sighs] I'm worried about my daughters." "I think there's something wrong with them." "I mean, I used to do a bunch of messed-up shit when I was a kid." "Still do." "It's gonna get worse after your wife dies." "What's Alex think about all this stuff going on?" "What's she say?" "She doesn't." "What do you mean?" "I thought she talks to you all the time." "We don't really talk about our issues." "We deal with our shit by talking about other stuff and having a good time." "What would you do if you were me?" "How would you handle my daughters?" "How would you handle the situation of this guy we're trying to find?" "I told you, man." "I'd put his nuts on a dresser and I'd beat them with a spiked bat." "As for your daughters, I don't know." "Exchange them for sons, I guess." "Well, I'd probably end up with something like you." "I'm not so bad. I'm smart." "You are about a hundred miles from Smartville." "No offense." "You are mistaken, counselor." "I'm smart and, you know, I have good hygiene." "I'm a decent guitar player." "I'm a good cook." "I mean, I cook food all the time." "I'm vice president of the Punahou chess club." "And I always have weed." "Your mother must be very proud." "It's possible." "I mean, she's been kind of busy lately." "Yeah, what's she do, your mom?" "She's a receptionist at a pet clinic." "But lately she's been getting the house together after my dad died." "My dad died a few months ago." "November 24th." "Drunk driver."

"She was in a boating accident." "She hit her head a little too hard." "Sailboat or one with a motor?" "One with a motor." "Good luck with that. I wish her well." "Not so far, Skylar!" "So are you guys staying in one of the cottages here?" "Yeah." "My husband had to come for work so we thought we'd make a little vacation of it." "We know the owner, so...." "Hugh King."

"He's a realtor out by you." "So if we sell to Don-- Which we're gonna do, right?" "I mean, that's what you want too." "Nice guy, Don." "He'll do right by us." "So then when Don develops, resells, leases and all that he's letting this brother-in-law handle the transactions, a lot of them anyway." "Big score for that guy."

"I'm not gonna sign." "What are you doing, man?" "We know you got a lot on your plate now, but you're not gonna fuck this up for us." "It's over." "I don't want it to go to Holitzer." "I don't want it to go to anyone." "I wanna keep it." "Your head's not right, Mattie." "Your head's not right." "Want a couple of days to think about it?" "Take a couple of days." "I don't need a couple of days." "I have the authority, and this is what I want." "We have other businesses that we're converting into corporations." "We can figure this out." "You're the trustee, Mattie." "You know better than anyone we only have seven years left." "Then I have seven years to figure out how to keep it." "[CHUCKLES]" "We'll come after you, man." "Just because you're a fucking lawyer doesn't mean the rest of us will be afraid to come after you." "But nobody wants to do that." "We're family." "People will be relieved, Hugh." "The whole state." "Oh, shit." "MATT:" "I sign this document and something that we were supposed to protect is gone forever." "Now, we're haole as shit." "And we go to private schools and clubs and we can barely speak pidgin, let alone Hawaiian." "But we've got Hawaiian blood, and we're tied to this land." "And our children are tied to this land." "Now, it's a miracle that for some bullshit reason 1 50 years ago we own this much of paradise, but we do." "And for whatever bullshit reason, I'm the trustee now and I'm not signing." "I'm not signing it." "So if you wanna sue me, it'll just make us closer." "[sighs]" "All right." "Listen up, everybody." "Hey, hey, hey." "Cousin Mattie has an announcement." "Get ready." "[KNOCK ON DOOR]" "MATT:" "Come in." "Julie?" "I know we just met but I've been thinking about you guys a lot these last few days and, uh, I knew your mom was here." "I don't know, I just felt I should come by." "Well, you know Alex." "Hi." "Hi." "This is Scottie." "And, Sid, this is Mrs. Speer." "Julie." "Julie." "Were you friends with my mom?" "No, I never met your mom, but I know a lot about her." "Listen, Julie, we really appreciate you coming by and the flowers are lovely." "Hey, Scottie, Alex." "What?" "Let's go to the cafeteria." "SCOTTlE:" "Okay." "ALEXANDRA:" "Yeah, good idea." "Scottie." "I'm coming." "Hurry up, Scottie." "Hi." "SCOTTlE:" "It only took me two seconds." "Scottie." "Coming." "I'm not sure how much you know about my wife's condition but, uh, she's gonna die very soon." "And actually, that's sort of why we're here." "I know." "That's why I came, because I know." "I came because Brian wouldn't, and that just didn't seem right." "I thought someone from my family should come." "So he told you." "He was acting really weird that night after you left and then I just started smelling it on him." "I'd already smelled it." "I finally got it out of him, and we have been going crazy ever since." "Not easy with the kids around." "It's all just something I could never have imagined." "And then your family's decision with the land I think you're doing the right thing, but Brian is.... lt's just so complicated and confusing." "I know." "I'm angry." "But I'm just so sorry." "I can't imagine what you must be going through." "Do you mind if I say something to her?" "Okay." "Elizabeth, I'm Julie." "I'm Brian's wife." "[julie sobbing] I just wanna tell you...." "l just wanna tell you I forgive you." "I forgive you for trying to take Brian away." "I forgive you for trying to destroy my family." "Because I just-- l have to forgive you." "I just have to forgive you, even though I should hate you." "Okay, okay, that's enough." "I just have to forgive you." "Really, honestly, I think that's enough, okay?" "Here we go." "Thank you, Julie." "Hey." "He didn't love her, just so you know." "He didn't really love her." "That's why I came." "Okay." "Okay." "There you go." "[sighs]" "Goodbye, Elizabeth." "Goodbye, my love." "My friend." "My pain." "My joy." "[sobbing]" "Goodbye." "Bye." "Well, I guess that's it." "FREEMAN [ON TV]:" "There are few places harder to get to in this world but there aren't any where it's harder to live." "The average temperature here at the bottom of the Earth is a balmy 58 degrees below..." "One strawberry." "FREEMAN: ...when the sun is out." "One mocha chip." "FREEMAN:" "It wasn't always like this." "Great." "FREEMAN:" "Antarctica used to be a tropical place densely forested and teeming with life." "But then the continent started to drift south and by the time it was done drifting the dense forests had all been replaced with a new ground cover: ice." "As for the former inhabitants, they'd all died or moved on long ago." "Well, almost all of them." "The emperor penguin is technically a bird although one that makes his home in the sea." "So if you're wondering what he's doing up here on the ice well, that's part of our story." "Each year at around the same time he will leave the comfort of his ocean home and embark on a remarkable journey." "He will travel a great distance." "And though he is a bird, he won't fly." "Though he lives in the sea, he won't swim." "[LENA MACHADO'S "MOM" playing]" "Mom, I love you" "Yes, I do" "Wait for me, Mom" "Be home real soon" "Real soon I never knew" "How much you meant to me" "Now that I'm so many miles away" "From you" "Only God knows" "When and where we'll meet again" "To hold you in my arms" "Once more" "To hear your voice" "To see your smile" "Oh, God, do please" "Keep my mom" "Please keep my mom" "[English" " US" " PSDH]"
