:39:00
Or you could buy
Nutbeem's.

:39:04
I built a Chinese junk.
:39:05
Sailed it up from Brazil.
:39:07
Unfortunately, I missed
Manhattan by a mile or two

:39:09
and got stranded here when I
shipwrecked by Gaze Island.

:39:12
I've almost finished
my repairs.

:39:14
I'll be sailing
away soon.

:39:17
She's ugly, and...
:39:19
the only thing
I've ever loved.

:39:24
(mock weeping)
:39:25
Eh, your story tugs
at me bladder.

:39:36
Excuse me.
:39:39
Um, what is it
between those two?

:39:43
First thing:
:39:44
you'll have to understand
about the curse.

:39:48
Jack Buggit's father,
his grandfather

:39:51
his great-grandfather
all died at sea.

:39:53
Second thing:
Jack is... sensitive.

:39:57
Especially about the sea.
:39:59
"Sensitive."
: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.
