"And he is willing to do whatever it takes." "He could give a report, write an essay, make a collage." "The experience he is having is so much richer than anything you could teach him in this classroom." "I'm a very good teacher." "I didn't mean it that way, Mr. Doyle." "Look, I wasn't happy about it at first either." "But I am seeing something that a mother, a teacher dreams of seeing:" "A turned-on kid." "He is so engaged, and it's not with a Game Boy." "It's with something that is alive and beautiful and real." "He wants credit for the class, he has to be in the class." "I'm sorry." "You should be." " Morning, Mom." "LORRAINE:" "Hi, son."

"[BOTH SCREAMING]" "[BOTH LAUGH]" "[TRILLING]" "Don't make it too tight." "Ah!" "[LAUGHS]" "There we go." "Little to the left." "Winter, look at your rubber duck." "Do you want your duck?" "Look, here you go." " Go get it, Winter." "SAWYER:" "Here you go." "HAZEL:" "Thattagirl." "Hey, Mom." "Guess what happened today." "Kyle."

"CLAY:" "Yeah." "It's really cool." "I heard about your cousin." "The good news is he's alive." "That's what matters, right?" "Yeah." "Hey, I need a little help on the night shift tonight." "Help keep an eye on Winter for me." "Really?" "Sure." "That'd be great." "Hey, Dr. Clay?" "I think you can call me Clay now." "Okay." "Do you think Winter remembers things?" "Like the ocean or her family?" "It's really hard to say." "They're pretty smart, you know." "Some people think they're smarter than we are." "Some people think dolphins actually are people." "Tell him the story." "CLAY:" "Okay." "In California, the Chumash tribe has a legend." "They believe that a long time ago, their goddess, Hutash wanted everyone who lived on the islands to move onto the mainland." "So she built them a bridge out of a rainbow." "Everybody was crossing the rainbow, excited to get to the mainland." "The kids were jumping around having a great time, dancing, singing." "You know, being kids." "[WATER SPLASHING]" "Well, they fell off the rainbow, and they went tumbling down toward the sea." "Well, the parents were just scared to death that Hutash was gonna be really mad at them and let their kids drown." "But no." "She took pity on them, because she loved the way they played." "So right at the moment when the children hit the water she turned them into dolphins so they could play forever." "SAWYER:" "Wow." "Thanks." "[PLAYING "EVERYTHING HAPPENS TO ME"]" "[WINTER TRILLING]" "I don't know if you know this, but my cousin Kyle's pretty hurt." "Yeah, we don't know how bad yet." "But he's strong."

"[TRILLING]" "What do you want?" "You wanna play?" "Want a toy?" "Okay." "We got plenty of toys." "Bowling pin?" "[WINTER SQUEAKS]" "No." "Okay." "We got..." "How about the duck?" "You like the duck, right?" "Duck?" "It's good." "Here." "Here you go, Winter." "Come on, Winter." "See the duck?" "See the duck?" "Come on." "You want the duck?" "Want the duck?" "Come on, Winter, do you want it or not?" "Whoa!" "Whoa!" "[WINTER CLICKING]" "Winter." "[LAUGHS]" "[WINTER TRILLING]" "[LAUGHS]" "Winter!" "Okay, is that what you wanted?" "You wanna splash?" "Take it!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "No!" "Okay, I surrender." "I surrender." "You won." "You won." "Okay, okay." "You win." "[GASPS]" "[TRILLING]" "Where's Kyle?" "Your Aunt Alyce called, sweetheart." "He decided to go straight to the VA hospital." "But we're his family." "And I wanted to show him some stuff and invite him to meet Winter." "I know." "I know." "[CRYING]" "He just needs some time." "All right, will you please tell him I called him again?" "Yeah." "Sawyer." "His cousin." "All right." "Thank you." "[HAZEL IMITATES HELICOPTER WHIRRING]" "Come on, you promised you'd teach me to fly it." "Remember?" "Maybe it'll cheer you up."

" Hey, watch it." "Quit it." "Hey!" " Oh!" "Oh, my gosh!" "Slow it down!" "Hazel!" "HAZEL:" "Sorry, sorry, sorry." "Oh, no." "Where do you think it went?" " What do you see?" "I don't see it!" " I don't see it either." " I'll fix it." "SAWYER:" "Give it to me." "Stop..." "Stop it." "[CLICKING]" "[SQUEAKS]" "[SQUAWKS]" "[SQUAWKING]" "SAWYER:" "There it is!" "Here it comes." "Look out!"

"Is it bad?" " These muscles are enlarged." "They're pulling on her vertebrae and it's causing damage right here." "It's from swimming." "Yeah, a dolphin's tail is meant to flex up and down." "It's not supposed to go side to side." "But that's the only way she can swim." "I know, but they're not designed to move that way." "Well, what's the worst that can happen?" "So she'll have a bulge." "That's not so bad." "Yeah, but her spinal cord's exactly like ours, right?" "It's controlling everything." "It's controlling her breathing, her heartbeat, movement." "So if it gets damaged..." "So you're saying swimming like that's gonna kill her?" "I mean, we can give her some exercises to try to improve it, but..." "Oh, hey, can we help you?" " Yeah, we're looking for Private Connellan." "MIKE:" "Kyle?" "I think he's in the lab across the way." "Okay." "I'm always telling him it's not polite to point with that thing." "Thanks, guys."

"I'm Lorraine, Kyle's aunt." "Hi." "And this is Sawyer, his cousin." "Family." "Very healing." "Or so I'm told." "Mine always makes me wanna sharpen the cutlery." "God does quality work, doesn't he?"

"You know, whatever." "Did you ever think that this might be hard for other people?" "People besides you?" "Did you?" "[DOOR OPENS THEN SLAMS]" "What do you say we get an ice cream." "KYLE:" "Sawyer." "I'll wait for you in the car." "Look, it's not you." "Okay?" "I just need some time." "Yeah, Mom said that your back was hurt." "That you can't move your legs or something?" "Yeah, I mean, my left leg, it's coming back." "But it's my right side they're worried about." "Will you be able to walk again?" "With a brace maybe." "What about swimming?" "Just tell my mom and dad I'm doing okay." "[MEN YELLING]" "Excuse me?" "Hi." "Can I ask you a weird question?" "All right, I'm looking and I'm listening." "I understand." "No promises." "Hey, Dr. Clay." "This is Dr. McCarthy." " Oh, hi, doctor." " Hi." "What can I do for you?" "Well, I was under the impression I was here to do something for you." "I was afraid you'd say no." "All right." "Let's see here." "[CLICKING]" "Right." "Well, to begin with, she's as smooth as wet silk." "But how would you keep the daggone thing on her when there's nothing there?" "There's nothing to attach anything to." "It's preposterous anyway, trying to put a tail on a fish." "And nobody in his right mind would even try." "Luckily I'm not." "Not what?" "In my right mind." "CLAY:" "So, what does that mean?" "You're gonna...?" "You're gonna try?" "McCARTHY:" "Well, ahem..." "I've got some vacation time coming up." "But I'm not making any promises." "Dr. McCarthy." "[WINTER TRILLING]" "That means she likes you." "Well, imagine my delight." "Not much different from us, really." "Same vertebral structure." "But their skin is hypersensitive." "She might not tolerate anything against it at all." "That's the first step then." "You're doing okay." "Nice and tight." "There's too much power for what you're proposing to do." "No, there isn't." "We're not gonna be worried about that." "You were talking about the abrasion part of it." "Will you let me finish or what?" "[ALL CHATTERING]" "[PHONE RINGS]" "McCARTHY:" "Good idea." "Good idea." "[TRILLING]" "McCARTHY:" "Fine, I think, if this would stay up." " Like this?" " Ha, ha." "McCARTHY:" "So this is all gonna be moving at the same time." "This part is making the tail kind of go like that." "Exactly." "[TRILLING]" "Please understand that we're strapped for cash." "PHOEBE:" "It's amazing." "Amazing." "Thank you." "Thank you." "High five." "MAN:" "So, what do you need, Cam?" "I want you to custom-make some parts for me." "Not like anything we've done before." "It may not work and I can't pay you." "Other than that, I should be excited, right?" "Ha-ha-ha." "Who's the patient?" "Bad news?" " Doesn't matter." " Hmm." "How's the brace holding up?" "It's fine." " What am I supposed to do with that?" " Kick it." "Hard as you can." "Oh, don't worry about breaking anything." "I own savings bonds." "Something breaks, the government just buys more." "I make money." "I don't think that's how savings bonds work." "Probably not." "Kick it anyway." "I can't." "Hmm." "Tell me, what hurts more?" "Your leg or your pride?" "My whole life, all I wanted to do was one thing." "Well, now you're just gonna have to want to do something else." "Fortunately, there are about a million things to choose from." "Look, Kyle, just because you're hurt doesn't mean you're broken." "No, trust me, I'm broken." "No." "That's broken." "Go home, Kyle." "Go home to your family." "Now, this is the same stuff we use for humans." "It'll protect the skin." "You just slide it right over the stump and we'll put the prosthetic right over that." "This is something I cooked up from parts from an old Buick." "It's a little stiff, but it should work until the real parts are made." "PHOEBE:" "Okay, I got her." " Let's try it." "CLAY:" "There you go." "All right, hang on, Winter." "[WINTER CLICKING]" "[SAWYER WHISTLES]" "As tight as you can get it." "SAWYER:" "No, no, it's okay." "[WINTER TRILLING]" "CLAY:" "Shh, shh, shh." "PHOEBE:" "It's okay, Winter." "CLAY:" "Pheebs, let's get these straps." "PHOEBE:" "Is it tight enough?" "CLAY:" "It's on." "Okay." " Back her up." "PHOEBE:" "Let's go." "[WINTER CLICKING]" "Come on, fish." "Go ahead and give her some signals, Pheebs." "PHOEBE:" "It's okay, it's okay." "SAWYER:" "It's okay." "PHOEBE:" "It's okay, Winter." "Tail up." "Tail down." "SAWYER:" "You got this." "PHOEBE:" "Tail up." "Tail down." "Up and down." "No, Winter." "Up and down." "No, Winter." "She doesn't like it." "[CLICKING]" " Winter." "Winter." " Get it off her." "[WINTER SQUEALING]" "I can't do anything." "Dad, you gotta make her stop." "PHOEBE:" "Winter, no." "Stop." "HAZEL:" "Dad, do something." "PHOEBE:" "Winter." " Dad." "[WINTER SQUEALS]" "[WINTER TRILLING]" "SANDRA [OVER TV]:" "Thanks, Jerry." "This just in:" "Tropical Storm Leroy, now churning across the Gulf of Mexico with winds of up to 80 miles an hour..." " Phoebe." "... has just been upgraded to a Category One hurricane." "Stay tuned, as we'll bring you the very latest details as they come in." "CLAY:" "Phoebe, help me here, please." "PHOEBE:" "Okay." " Okay, I got it." "CLAY:" "You got it?" "PHOEBE:" "Yeah, let's go." "CLAY:" "Hey, guys, I need all of this stuff downstairs." "Everything goes downstairs." "[INDISTINCT SHOUTING]" "[WIND HOWLING]" "CLAY:" "Sawyer." "Sawyer, your mom's here." "You gotta go home." " What about the animals?" " Don't worry about them." "Go home." "Kat, you go too." "Go." "Come on, let's get in our spot." "Hi, Mom." "No, no, no, I got it, son." "CLAY:" "Come on, Phoebe." "We gotta get inside." "PHOEBE:" "Okay." "Good girls." "[TRILLS]" "CLAY:" "Hazel." "HAZEL:" "Dad." "Here I am." "Mom?" "It's okay, honey." "It's just a big old storm." "We'll be okay." "[RUFUS SQUAWKING]" "HAZEL:" "He's scared." "[WATER TRICKLING]" "[MACHINE WHIRRING]" "CLAY:" "Hey, when you're finished up there, come on down, will you?" "Got some other things I need your help with." "Kyle." "Figured you could use a hand." "And maybe one good leg." "Hey, Dr. Clay, Hazel, Reed." "This is my cousin Kyle." "And my Aunt Alyce." " Hey, how you doing?" "Nice to meet you." "KYLE:" "Hi." "[WINTER CLICKING]" "It's okay." "I can do this." "Ah, ahh..." "Hold your hand out." "[WINTER CLICKING]" "Come on." "[TRILLING]" "[CHUCKLES]" "GLORIA:" "The best guess is what?" "Including structural damage the truck, rescue equipment, electrical systems something in the range of 500,000." "So this is it." "Gloria, I really feel like we've exhausted all of our options here." "So we're all in agreement, then." "We go ahead with the sale?" "In favor?" "I'll call Mr. Hordern and tell him." "We found homes for all the fish and the animals." "Including Winter?" "[SIGHS]" "Clay..." "The plain truth is no one wants an animal with her disability." "No dolphin has ever been known to lose its entire tail and survive." "Every aquarium in the country says it's hopeless." "Well, they haven't met Winter." "Listen, Dr. McCarthy is looking into some new materials, right?" "He says he can have a new tail ready by..." "What if she rejects that one too?" "She won't." "Two weeks." "Just give me two weeks." "I can't." "There is no money." "We have to start thinking about putting Winter down." "It's the kindest thing we can do." " No." " I don't have a choice." "Of course you do." "Dr. McCarthy said we only need..." "Dr. McCarthy stopped work." "I asked him to." "Why?" "[SIGHS]" "Come over here." "I'm out of time." "I'm out of money." "I have to close down." "Dad, how could you let this happen?" "I don't keep secrets from you, Hazel." "I never have." "I'm telling you kids this because I think..." "Because I think it's time you start saying your goodbyes." "[SOBS]" "[CAR DOOR OPENS]" "Excuse me." "Is this the Clearwater Marine Hospital?" "Oh, yeah." "Sorry, our sign blew down." "Thank you." "We drove all the way down from Atlanta." "If y'all were closed, I don't know what I would have done." " We've come to see the dolphin." " Her name's Winter, Mommy." "Her cousin was here with a school group and told us about her and ever since then, it's all my daughter talks about." "After the storm, we went online to see if she was okay but we couldn't find anything." "She's fine." "All the animals are." "You think it'd be okay if we just had a little peek?" "Sure, I guess." "Thanks." "Hi." "Hi." "Wow." "Oh, my goodness." "Look at that huge skeleton." " Wow." " Wow." "Oh, look up there." "You see it?" "Come over here, guys." "MOM:" "Wow." "It's cool, huh?" "Where's Winter?" "Just wait a sec." "Mommy, she's just like me." "But you said there wasn't a solution." "This is a solution." "CLAY:" "You don't understand..." "SAWYER:" "I do." "You need money." "I get that." "But Winter can raise a lot of money." "That lady drove eight hours to bring her daughter here." "And other people would do that too." " We need a website." " With a webcam." "SAWYER:" "Make donations." "HAZEL:" "A big carnival." "Everybody could see her new tail." "Guys, I'm really proud of you." "I love the ideas but they're just not realistic, you know?" "It wasn't realistic to save Winter in the first place, but you did it." "I am really sorry, guys." "I really am." "It just wouldn't be enough." "Remember that poem I used to read you when you were little?" "I must down to the seas again To the lonely sea and sky" "And all I ask is a tall ship" "And a star to steer her by" "You're a good sailor, Clay." "You know the sea and sky better than any man I ever met." "But you are sorely lost now, son." "You're giving up." "Because you're afraid you can't save her." "And you don't want to watch that happen again." "Well Winter might die." "I don't know." "But I do know you can't give up on her." "You never did on Holly." "It was the bravest, most beautiful thing I ever saw." "Just because we haven't got to where the star's pointing us doesn't make it the wrong star." "That dolphin's taking us all somewhere." "We just haven't figured out where yet." "Sawyer?" "So you want to talk me through this fundraising stuff again?" "Okay, you're gonna help me with the baking and food committee." "I need you on the decorations committee." "Yeah, Gloria, I know." "Ha, ha." "I know it sounds crazy." "I need you to stall him." "As long as you can." "It's a big benefit for the Marine Hospital." "We're calling it "Save Winter Day."" "You can?" "Great." " Hey." " Hey." "This is quite the operation you got going on here, huh?" "Yeah." "I just hope we can sell enough tickets." "[PHONE RINGS]" "Dr. McCarthy?" "Thank you so much for calling me back." "I just wanted to make sure that..." "MAN:" "Have a good weekend, Sandra." "SANDRA:" "Thanks." "So..." "I wondered if I could ask you a favor." "Sure." "[WINTER TRILLING]" "Okay, move it to the left." "Farther, farther." "Okay." "Okay, slide it out more." "More." "A little more." "Little more." " Uh-oh." " Ah!" "Never mind." "SAWYER:" "Maybe we should make it a little bigger." "Hey, guys." "You might want to come see this." " See what?" "KYLE:" "It's a surprise." "SANDRA [OVER TV]:" "Thanks, Jerry." "Just months ago, little Winter was found tangled in the ropes of a crab trap." "Her tail seriously damaged." "Rushed to Clearwater Marine Hospital, it appeared she might not survive." "But the plucky animal did, although her tail did not." "And without a tail, how could she swim?" "Well, she taught herself to with a wiggling motion, side to side." "But it's not a happy ending yet." "That unusual swimming motion is damaging her spine  which could lead to paralysis." "The solution?" "Make her a prosthetic tail." "And with the help of prosthetic designer Dr. Cameron McCarthy  they're doing just that." "But it will take time and money." "So Winter's best friend, 11-year-old Sawyer Nelson  has created a website, SeeWinter. com  with a live webcam where you can log on and meet her for yourself." "Or better yet, meet her in person on Save Winter Day, Saturday the 27th." "And, as an added bonus  you'll be treated to a very special sporting event." "Two of America's top young swimmers  Florida's Kyle Connellan and Donovan Peck have agreed to race head-to-head..." " Really?" "... with all proceeds going to benefit Winter and the Marine Hospital." "So come and meet two  of our finest athletes and one heroic little dolphin." "I guarantee she'll steal your heart, just like she did mine." "SAWYER:" "All right, a little more." "Farther." "All right, down." "WOMAN:" "All right." "Sawyer." "Sawyer." "He's here." " Good work, guys." " Come on." "McCARTHY:" "All right." "Cross your fingers and toes if you got them." "[HAZEL GASPS]" "HAZEL:" "Oh, it's beautiful." "McCARTHY:" "Yeah, the joints are a little more flexible." "So it should feel more natural." "Hmm?" "[WINTER TRILLING]" "CLAY:" "Here you go." "PHOEBE:" "Can we show this to her?" "SAWYER:" "It's okay." "You okay?" "PHOEBE:" "Hold it in front of her eye." "Let her see it." "KAT:" "Here." "You ready?" "PHOEBE:" "Okay, let's do this." "SAWYER:" "Good girl." "Come on." "CLAY:" "I got it." "McCARTHY:" "Clay?" "Make sure you snug it right up close to the stump." "Real close." "CLAY:" "Okay." "PHOEBE:" "You got it?" "CLAY:" "Well, it fits, that's for sure." "That's about as snug as I can get it." "Can you see?" "Just try to get her attention, Phoebe." "PHOEBE:" "You can do it." "Up and down." "Up and down." "Good girl." "Up and down, Winter." "Up and down." "Up and down." "Up and down." "[WINTER TRILLING]" "You ready?" "All right, let's do this, Winter." "PHOEBE:" "She's good." "Keep her steady." "Good job." "You can do it." "Oh, lookie there." "Winter." "Winter, no." "[WINTER SQUEALING]" "Winter, stop." "Hey, Mom." "I'm sure you're busy with lots of other stuff." "But if there's anything you can do to help Winter and her tail we'd all really appreciate it." "[WINTER TRILLING]" "Winter, no." "Just stop." "Winter, no." "I don't want to play right now." "You don't understand, do you?" "I thought dolphins were supposed to be smart." "Why won't you understand?" "Don't you get it?" "If you don't wear the tail, you're gonna die." "Why won't you just wear the tail?" "[WINTER GRUNTS]" "[WINTER CLICKING]" "Winter, what are you doing?" "[TRILLING]" "Hey, cut it out." "I don't want to play." "Dr. Clay." "Dr. Clay." "Dr. Clay." " I know what it is now." " What?" "It's not the tail, it's the sock." "It's like a seat belt." "Wait a minute." "What?" "No, no." "When it rubs." "It's not the tail we have to fix, it's the sock." "MAN:" "Okay, Sandra, we're live." "Five, four, three, two..." "SANDRA:" "I'm Sandra Sinclair with Bay News 9 here at Clearwater Marine Hospital for Save Winter Day." "COACH:" "How you doing?" " How you doing, coach?" " Good." "You look good." " Thanks for being here." " Man, I wouldn't have missed it." "I'll be darned if I'm gonna tell anyone this whole thing was organized by 11-year-olds." "[CHUCKLING]" "Thank you." "That's very generous." "Well, let's just say that Winter and I are old friends." "[CHUCKLES]" "Hey, Kat, have you seen Dr. McCarthy?" "No, not yet." "[RUFUS SQUAWKING] [DOYLE MUTTERING]" "Go away." "Please." "Good grief." "LORRAINE:" "Hey, Mr. Doyle." "Oh." "Oh, hi." "Um..." "Hi." "I read Sawyer's essay..." "Ha!" "It's quite good, actually." "And considering everything that he has done here, I figured that I could get him credit for summer school." "Considering that news, I'll call off the pelican." "Shoo, Rufus." "Go on." " Have a wonderful afternoon, Mr. Doyle." "McCARTHY:" "Beep-beep-beep-beep." "Beep-beep." "Hoo-gah." "Hoo-hoo-hoogah." "Excuse me." "Bye-bye." "Excuse me, excuse me." "Excuse me." "Dr. McCarthy." "What a mob." " Is it done?" " Is it ready?" "Can't a man catch his breath for a minute before you start bombarding him with questions?" "It's in here." "SAWYER:" "Yes." "I must've tried 20 different formulas, but I think we got something." "It's a silicone elastomer." "Saltwater-proof." "Extra sticky." " And softer than a lamb's bottom." "SAWYER  HAZEL:" "Wow." "McCARTHY:" "I call it "Winter's gel."" "I'll tell you what:" "If the fish doesn't like it I'm putting the tail on and swimming with it myself." "JOHN:" "Gloria." "Wait up." "All right, thanks very much." "That was the lawyer." "The deal's closed." "It all belongs to Hordern now." "Gloria, a bake sale wouldn't fix this." "We did the right thing." "Did we?" "I'm not so sure." "Not too tight?" "I don't think so." "SAWYER:" "It's okay, it's okay." "Shh, shh, shh." "Attagirl." "Attagirl." "CLAY:" "You got it, Pheebs?" " I got it." "All right, it's on." "PHOEBE:" "Does that feel better?" "Does that feel good?" "CLAY:" "All right, just give her a second." "[TRILLING]" "CLAY:" "Give her the signals, Pheeb." "Can you lift it, just a little bit?" "Up and down, Winter." "Up and down." "Good girl." "Good girl." "I know." "Okay." "Let's try this, okay?" "Come on." "Come on." "Come on, girl." "Come on." "Come on, Winter." "No." " No, Winter." " Come on, Winter." "Good girl, Winter." "Up and down."

"Yes, yes, you did it." " Good girl." " You did it." "I know." "Hey, guys." "Everything ready?" "Yeah." "All right, now, listen." "No matter what happens, today belongs to you two." "You never quit on Winter and you never quit on yourselves." "You'll always have that." "Hello." "I'm Clay Haskett." "Welcome to the Clearwater Marine Hospital." "[CROWD CHEERING]" "I'm so thrilled that everyone could come today." "I'd also like to introduce two very special guests." "First, state swimming champion Donovan Peck." "[CROWD CHEERING]" "Donovan."

"[LAUGHING]" "[FEEDBACK SQUEALS]" "Wow." "I don't know what to say." "But I do know it wasn't me that made this day happen." "We're here because of the most amazing animal, and friend, that I've ever known." "And I hope you love her as much as I do." "Because Winter and I are family now." "And family is forever." "[CROWD CHEERING]" "All right." "You good?" "Yeah." "All right, 400 meters out, around the buoy and back." " You got it?" " Uh-huh." "Now, I may not be able to kick so well but don't you dare take it easy on me, all right?" "COACH:" "Okay, guys, take your mark." "And by the way did I forget to mention this is a relay race?"

"I'll fund your whole operation." "As long as you run the place your way." "I suggest you say yes." " Yes." "Yes." " Ha-ha-ha." " I would love that." " All right, we got a deal."
