BILLY:
Ah, you're getting
the hang of it.
:03:02
Now, coax her a wee bit
to starboard.
:03:03
Attaboy. You're a Quoyle--
there's seawater in your veins.
:03:07
(groaning)
:03:08
How are things
with your girl?
:03:11
Oh, Bunny's just still
adjusting, I think.
:03:15
Oh, I was talking
about Wavey Prowse.
:03:18
Sorry... sorry!
:03:19
Whoa!
:03:20
Jesus!
Sorry.
:03:22
I... Wavey and I
are just friends.
:03:25
Fine. Don't have
to drown me over it.
:03:37
This is where
I grew up.
:03:40
That's my poor old
father there.
:03:47
And that's where
your house stood.
:03:59
Before they dragged it
across the ice.
:04:01
Yes, sir.
:04:02
Before they was driven away.
:04:07
Driven away by what?
:04:12
You never knew?
:04:14
Ah, well.
:04:15
It's neither
here nor there, right?
:04:17
The point is, they made
a new place for theirselves.
:04:19
No, by what?
Driven away by what?
:04:20
Oh, that's old stuff, boy.
:04:23
It's in my blood.
:04:25
You ought to be
able to tell me.
:04:29
Well, they come to Gaze Island
centuries ago, they did.
:04:33
The old Quoyles was rackers.
:04:35
They were, they were pirates,
sort of like.
:04:38
You see them cairns?
:04:41
Fires used to burn
in them
:04:43
to guide
the ships at sea
like lighthouses.
:04:47
Now, the Quoyles
would move the fires
:04:50
to fool the ships.
:04:51
They'd lure them
into the rocks
:04:53
so the Quoyles could grab
their loot.
:04:55
Oh, they was a savage lot,
the old Quoyles.
:04:57
Then they went too far one day,
they... nailed a man to a tree
