:27:29
Welcome home, Guy.
:27:34
QUOYLE:
I can't do it.

:27:35
I mean, even
if I knew

:27:36
the first thing about writing,
which I don't, I...

:27:39
Car crashes--
I can't cover those.

:27:41
Why not?
:27:44
You know why not.
:27:47
We face up to the things
we're afraid of

:27:49
because we can't go around them.
:27:51
Car wrecks are
:27:53
a fact of life
up here.

:27:54
Come winter, a drive
into town'll be

:27:56
damn near impossible.
:27:57
We'll buy
us a boat.

:28:00
Look, I already told you,
I'm not a water person.

:28:04
They dragged it here.
:28:06
What, honey?
:28:09
The house.
They dragged it here.

:28:12
You must've had a dream,
sweetheart.

:28:14
Who told you about that?
:28:22
A long time ago,
on Gaze Island

:28:24
the old Quoyles couldn't make
a go of it there

:28:28
so they lashed the house with
ropes and they dragged it.

:28:31
Yeah, they
dragged it.

:28:34
Across the ice,
clear to the mainland.

:28:37
Right here.
