The name means in Seminole:
"Don't go there."

:02:04
But we bought it.
:02:06
Because we knew.
You weren't selling land.

:02:09
I mean, what's land?
A patch of dirt, a tree. Who cares?

:02:13
Farmers care.
:02:21
Farmers.
:02:23
Farmers are for TV ads. People
with tractors, amber waves of grain.

:02:28
They shoot it all in Canada.
:02:30
I'm talking about certified accountants
with a fixed pension and a nest egg...

:02:36
...who don't wanna spend
their golden years in slush.

:02:40
Dreams are what you sell.
A concept.

:02:43
You sell sunshine,
you sell orange groves...

:02:46
...you sell gentle breezes
wafting through the palms.

:02:50
-There were palm trees?
-In the brochures.

:02:53
-Stately ones.
-When they came down and saw it?

:02:56
As long as the dredge stayed ahead
of the buyers, we were in like Flynn.

:03:02
This was the end of the earth.
:03:04
This was the land populated
by white people who ate catfish.

:03:09
Almost overnight,
out of the muck and the mangroves...

:03:14
...we created this.
:03:17
Golf courses.
:03:19
Nature on a leash.
:03:35
Ahoy. It's that time of year again.
:03:37
The Delrona Chamber of Commerce
invites you...

:03:41
... to the Buccaneer Days festivities
at the Plantation Island Marina.

:03:47
Live music,
and plenty of booty for kids.

:03:50
Plans for the treasure hunt can be
attained at the Delrona Beach Mall....
