- [Emily] Growing up, my mom used to say,
"Change is the only cost of new life."
She was right, everyone was running,
everyone was sick and
scared with nowhere to go.
Survival instincts had kicked in
and my mom was good at
survival, she had to be.
I, on the other hand, was not, not yet.
(tense melodic music)
We lost so much since everyone got sick,
my dad, then my sister and
now it's just me and my mom.
Even my cat, Maggie's gone.
(car door clicking)
(car door thudding)
- What were you doing in there?
Oh, my God, you got us Safe Bands?
- Mm-hm.
- How?
- You're my life, I've
paid everything and more
for two spots for us,
I made you a promise,
we're getting out of here alive.
(Lila exhaling heavily)
(car engine starting)
(car rumbling quietly)
Seatbelt.
- It's on.
Pedestrians, pedestrians.
- [Lila] Okay, I got it.
- Think we'll make it to this boat?
- Oh, we will.
(tense melodic music)
Hold on.
(tense melodic music)
Okay.
(car doors thudding)
Go, go, go.
- Which one is it?
- Through here.
Yep.
Ah, straight ahead.
- There?
- Yep.
- Whoa, whoa!
- [Man] What the fuck? I'm not sick, man!
- Hey.
- Hi, we have bands.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
- Hey.
Okay, okay.
- Healthy as a horse.
- What does that mean?
- It means,
you're special.
- [Lila] Up there, come on.
(soft melodic music)
- [Emily] Yes, we made it onto this boat.
Yes, we're part of the lucky few,
but I'm starting to think
maybe we should have stayed,
watched the world burn,
because where the hell do we go from here?
- Mm.
(glasses clinking)
- To the first time. (laughing)
- To another time.
Hm!
- [Walter] Just a little whiskey.
- Maybe some water actually?
- Hm, no, honey, you should drink your...
- Whiskey.
- Whiskey.
- Yeah.
- I'm not thirsty anymore.
- Aw!
- More for us.
(both laughing)
(soft tense music)
(fingers snapping)
- I'll take one.
- Nice hand.
- I'll say.
- [Emily] Mom, we should
go back to the room.
- Oh honey, I'm here with, um?
- Walter.
- Walter, you go, I'll meet up with you.
- Mom, this guy's not
gonna solve your problems.
- Hey, women always solve my problems.
- I see, mm-hm.
We need a win.
- Yeah, but not like this.
I'm going to bed.
- Goodnight?
- Oh.
(Walter laughing)
(soft melodic music)
(wind blowing)
(Cara knocking)
(soft melodic music)
(door clicking)
- You okay?
- [Emily] Yeah.
- Lock your door.
(soft melodic music)
(door thudding)
(soft melodic music)
(waves crashing)
- [Cara] Okay.
(soft tense music)
(Lila knocking)
- [Lila] Honey, it's me.
(knocking) Come on, open up.
(door clicking)
- [Emily] Hi, come in.
- Oh.
(tense melodic music)
(door thudding)
Oh, "All's well that ends well."
That's from Shakespeare.
- Okay, do you wanna take a shower?
- No.
You go, do your thing.
You're gonna like them.
Get ready for bed, hm?
- Okay.
- Yep.
- At least put some pajamas on.
- No.

The storm is getting really bad!
(dramatic melodic music)
(glass shattering)
(Cara screaming)
(rain pattering)
(thunder rumbling)
(waves crashing)
(tense melodic music)
- Shit.
Come on, girl.
Come on, girl.
(Emily coughing)
- Get off of me!
- "Thank you, Cara, for saving my life."
"Oh, you're welcome."
Jesus.
- What happened?
Oh, my God, where are we?
- You don't remember the storm?
You remember being on
the ship though, right?
- Yeah.
- We capsized.
- We what?
- We capsized.
- Where is everybody else?
Where's my mom?
- No one's here.
- What do you mean no one's here?
You checked everywhere?
- No, but I checked most of the island.
- Not all of it.
- Where are you-
- Mom!
- I already looked down there!
- [Emily] Mom!
- We need to build some sort
of shelter or something!
- I gotta find my mom!
- Fine, I'll do it myself.
Jesus Christ.
(waves crashing)
(Emily breathing heavily)
- Come on, she's gotta be somewhere else.
Okay.
(waves crashing)
Fucking serious?

- Uh, ow!
Come on.
(coconut thudding)
(Cara grunting)
There we go.
(soft orchestral music)
(Cara exhaling heavily)
(Emily sighing heavily)
(gentle piano music)
I thought you might be hungry.
- Thanks.
(gentle piano music)
- So what's your name?
It's not a trick question, you know.
- Emily.
- Here.
(gentle piano music)
I'm Cara.
I saw you on the boat.
Is that your mom you were with?
Okay, you don't have to talk, it's fine,
but I built a little
shed thing over there,
it's not much, but it's better than-
- I'm good where I am.
- You sure about that?
I mean, it rains pretty often,
so if I were you, I would...
Well, if you change your
mind, you know, it's-
- I won't.
- [Cara] Whatever.
(gentle orchestral music)
(waves crashing)
(soft orchestral music)
(water splashing)
(soft orchestral music)
(water splashing)
(Cara grunting)
(soft orchestral music)
(water splashing)
(Cara grunting)
(water splashing)
Oh, son of a bitch!
- You're doing it wrong.
- [Cara] Oh, yeah?
Why don't you come out here
and show me how it's done?
- Okay.
(waves crashing)
(water splashing)
(water splashing)
(Emily grunting)
- Wow, Jesus.
- Do you want this?
- Who would've known that I'm
shipwrecked with Captain Ahab?
(water splashing)
- It's not that hard.
What, you wanna learn?
Come on, grab it right there.
- Okay.
- Yeah, right on there
and hold here.
- Okay.
- Other way, relax a little bit.
So you see that fish?
You're gonna go for that one,
but you're gonna wait
for it to come to you.
Watch it, keep your eye on it
and go, go, go, go!
(water splashing)
Hey, good one.
- I did it! (laughing)
- Good job.
- Fucking got that sucker.
Look at that.
- What is that?
- I don't know.
(soft orchestral music)
(water splashing)
- Let's bring it in.
- Okay.
- I'm gonna pull, you push.
- Right.
(water splashing)
- Ah!
- (laughing) Look at this stuff.
- Look at this.
Cute!
- We can have tea and crumpets.
- Ah, yes.
- [Cara] Set the table.
- Hold on, I think I just
found someone's diary.
- Oh-oh.
- By the looks of it.
(soft orchestral music)
(waves crashing)
"Dear Diary, Day four on this island
and I'm beginning to think we
might be stuck here forever."
(Cara laughing)
Wait, I'm sorry, that was me.
(soft orchestral music)
(waves crashing)
It's probably all some
poor family had left.
Now they might be gone too.
- Hey, you can't let yourself
think of it that way,
it's too depressing.
Oh!
Cara is wearing an original design
by a fabulous fashion icon,
Monsieur Boxer.
This new collection is
called Lit Underwear
and as you can see, it's a
great color for all skin tones
and the classic oversized style
enables a whole range of movement,
which makes way for much fun
on pretty much any island you wash up on.
- Okay.
Very funny,
you got me.
I'm hungry.
- Well, got those fish over there.
You know anything about fires?
- Of course, we need to get
a rescue signal going anyway,
so that works, make a fire,
kill two birds, one stone.
- Sounds good.
- You wanna help me gather
some twigs and stuff?
- Oh, I bet these would go up
in flames pretty quick, huh?
- You're kidding?
This is our rescue flag.
- Yeah, do that.
(bright melodic music)
- Are you coming with me?
- Yeah, coming!
Take my mind
And I'm with you
- So, sit right here.
- Mm-hm.
- Both hands together, rub.
And rub.
- You sure about this?
- Yes.
I don't got no real estate
- You just need patience.
I could find a place to
see it all a different way
- [Emily] Come on.
You got what you need
And the world's at your feet
- And that should be enough.
Summer days, summer nights
(Emily blowing)
Losing time, bloodshot eyes
- Look at that.
It's okay when shit's done
I don't mind, I don't mind
- Whoo!
No way.
We got ourselves a fire.
- Fires and fishing,
were you like the Girl Scout or something?
- Something like that.
No time to keep
- Impressed.
My head's not right
'Cause I can't sleep
- Oh, its eyeballs, it's like
it's staring right at me.
- You know, you're kind of a wuss
for someone who acts so tough.
Ain't nobody knows my name
If I could find a place and
see it all a different way
Slow down, it hurts when you sleep
And nobody can see right now
Slow down
- What?
It's not gonna bite you.
- No, dead.
- [Emily] Bring it over here.
It's okay, waste your time
I don't mind, I don't mind
- Hm.
Okay, come on, you can do it.
- Okay, I'd probably have to say
Mickey D's french fries
with extra ketchup.
- [Cara] Oh man, so good.
- Reading a good book
or any book at this point
and binge watching everything
and music, I really do miss music.
- Yeah, definitely.
Okay, for me, hm,
movie theater popcorn.
Wait, no licorice, but
none of that red stuff,
it's gotta be straight
up black to be legit.
Laughing,
God, I really miss laughter.
- You don't really strike me as someone,
that ever laughed that much.
- What? No, I just need
something to laugh about.
- That's fair.
Okay, you got one more.
- Hm.
Oh, obviously making
out with Julie Redmond
behind her pool house. (laughing)
She had the softest lips ever.
- Yeah, or just touching
anyone for that matter.
Do you remember what
things were like before?
- Barely.
I can't believe it's
only been like two years.
- [Emily] Feels like forever.
- It does.
All right.
I got one.
This one's for you.
- Thank you so much.
- You're welcome.
(waves lapping)
(soft orchestral music)
- Hey, come in, it feels amazing!
- Rain check, I got some snacks.
(soft orchestral music)
Got some goodies.
- Oh, my God, you got a mango?
I love mangoes.
Mm!
Oh, my God.
So I was exploring a bit this morning
and I found a tidal pool
full of crabs and like a bunch
of other stuff you can eat,
so I was thinking if I
can make it some place?
- Yeah, sure, yeah,
that sounds good to me.
- Nice touch.
- I know this can't replace your family,
but I figure this would make things
feel a little bit more homey for you.
- That's sweet.
- Besides, you're probably sick of my face
being the only one you ever see.
- Not even a little.
That's Henry
and his wife Veronica of course,
but you might know her as Ronnie.
They were high school sweethearts
and got married right after college.
- Okay.
- On the right is Hank Junior,
he's a lot older than this now,
but he's basically a good kid,
you know, until he developed
that nasty gambling habit,
you've probably heard about it.
And that's Zoe on the
left, she's the smart one.
- Right, she got a full ride
to MIT, where she is now
and she's working on a
way to save the world.
- And, and thank God for Zoe,
'cause I mean, after
Veronica's flower episode.
- You realize this is
getting weird, right?
- Yeah, it totally is.
Um, thoughts on exploring the island?
- Maybe we can stay here on our beach?
- Hm, no, maybe we could go, come on.
- Okay.
- Come on.
- All right, so why are
we doing this again?
- What do you mean?
As guests of the island,
it's important we get to
know the lay of the land.
- Right, 'cause the
bugs here are different
than the bugs by our camp.
- No, I saw this movie
once where these people-
- Wait, wait, wait, give me a second.
- We're waiting.
I saw this movie once where
these people were shipwrecked
and they like-
- Wait, wait, let me guess,
they ate each other, right?
- Ew, don't be gross!
Why is that the first thing
you think of? Come on.
- All right.
- We're leaving.
- Oh.
- They finally get around to tracking
on the other side of the
island and what do they find?
A resort with food and
massages and like a lazy river,
all of it within like a mile
of where they've been stranded
for the last three months, I don't know.
- Wait, so let me get this straight,
you're saying that we're gonna find
some sort of tropical resort,
that's been unaffected
by the last few years
and it's just right over
that ridge over there.
- Not necessarily, but you never know.
Holy!
- Crap, that's...
- Amazing.
(soft melodic music)
(waterfall gushing)
- Last one in makes dinner!
- What?
Oh, my God, you're such a cheater.
- No, I'm not.
(both shrieking)
(water splashing)
(mellow melodic music)
(mellow melodic music continues)
We spent so much time in there.
- We look like prunes,
like little raisins.
- Little raisins.
(birds chirping)
- Hey.
Know what that is?
- What?
- A cashew tree.
- Okay.
- They're so good!
Come on, we can roast them!
- I'm running, I just-
- Uh!
(Emily thudding to ground)
- Em!
(soft tense music)
Em!
(Emily groaning)
Are you okay?
- I don't know, I can't move my leg.
- I-I'm coming, just
stay right there, okay.
Shit, oh, shit, you're really stuck.
Hey, um, I-I'm gonna lift this off of you
and I want you to move
your leg out fast, okay?
(soft tense music)
Look at me.
I'm not gonna let anything
happen to you, okay?
I promise, I'm gonna count to three, okay.
One, two, three. (grunting)
- Uh!
- (breathing heavily) Okay.
- What do we do now?
- No, seriously, you
should've seen yourself,
probably scared away all the
wild animals in the jungle.
- Thank you, I don't
know what I was thinking,
I could've gotten us both killed.
- Hey,
but you didn't.
- But I could have.
What if something happens to one of us?
- Then we deal with it,
literally like we are right now.
- No, like what if something really bad
happens to one of us,
what if something happens?
What if something happens
to you and I can't,
like I can't do anything about it?
- Well, in case you haven't noticed,
I can take care of myself just fine.
- Wait, so what, you, you really think,
that we can just stay here on the island,
just you and I like, like forever?
- What, you think it's safer
out there than it is here?
- Yeah.
- Because from what I saw,
I mean, you had a hell of
a lot more to worry about
on that boat than you
do here on this island.
- I handled the situation
on the boat fine.
- It's such bullshit!
(solemn melodic music)
It's been a long life
Black skies glowing
We're losing light
Where am I going
Black skies glowing
High
The wind blows high
Winter's life
- (laughing) Score!
(gentle piano music)
(Cara grunting)
(objects thudding)
(gentle piano music)
(waves lapping)
(Cara grunting)
(gentle piano music)
(waves lapping)
(Cara grunting)
(gentle piano music)
(waves lapping)
- Hi.
- Hi.
- I'm really sorry, you were right,
this is the safest place for us.
I'm just worried, I don't know
if my mom is dead or alive
and-
- No, no, no, you're right.
It's not fair for me to
tell you where you belong.
- Maybe not, but you
weren't totally wrong.
What is that?
- Check it out.
Washed up with the tide
an hour or so that way.
It's gotta be from our ship, right?
- You got me canned meat?
- I guess if all you've been
eating is bland fish and fruit,
that shit's disgusting.
- It's actually really good.
- Yeah.
- Have you ever had it?
- No, I haven't.
Now this is more my speed.
- [Emily] Okay.
- Oh, I got you this.
(gentle piano music)
Holy crap!
Soap and a hairbrush, I know
what I'm doing. (laughing)
- Heck, yeah.
(fire crackling)
- That smells so good.
- And I will never take
soap for granted again.
- No kidding.
- I didn't realize how dirty I felt.
- Right.
My hair was disgusting.
Safe days
- What?
- Nothing. (laughing)
- Pass me that.
- I'll do it.
- Um, it's fine, you
just, you don't have to.
- I know that I don't have to.
I want to.
- You know, I-I can
just take it from here.
- Can you relax?
You are so uncomfortable
with anyone doing anything nice for you.
- Okay.
Just go ahead.
Why don't you just stay today
Is it all right 'cause I
wish we could just stay
- There, that wasn't so bad, right?
- Thank you.
- Can I have my Coke now?
- Yes.
- Thank you.
- Sure.
I'm gonna dive into some of this.
Ooh!
Okay, if this doesn't remind
you that you're alive,
nothing will, take a sip.
God, this stuff is good.
- (gasps) How many seconds was that?
I think it was nine.
- I don't know what you were just doing.
- I was holding, I thought we were having
a breath holding contest.
(both laughing)
- Since when?
You were just quiet for an
abnormal amount of time,
I was like, wow, since when are you quiet?
- I misunderstood.
- Enjoy.
- How do you not know
what the cabbage patch is?
- I don't know.
- [Emily] Did you grow up under a rock?
- Kind of.
- Can I teach you?
- Yes, you can teach me.
- You just gotta go,
ooh, ooh, ooh ooh!
- Like.
- Not, not, no, no, no, no, no.
You see it?
- (laughing) It's amazing.
- You gotta make a wish.
- Wait, let me think.
Okay.
- What did you wish for?
- I wish that we, wait a
minute, I'm not gonna tell you.
- How come?
- It's not gonna come true.
- Oh, that's not true.
- Yes, it is.
- People just say that, that's not real.
- [Cara] Yes, it is.
- Fine.
(melodic guitar music)
- Hey, Em, can I ask you something?
- Of course.
- Nevermind.
- Okay.
(wind blowing)
(waves crashing)
(soft melodic music)
(rain pattering)
- Hey, let me help.
(soft melodic music)
(rain pattering)
Just looking at your
ankle makes mine hurt.
- If I were you, I'd be more
worried about your face.
- Ha ha.
It's not that bad.
- I don't know, it looks pretty bad to me.
(soft melodic music)
(rain pattering)
No?
- Is this what you want?
- This is exactly what I want
from the minute I saw you on that boat.
I know I'm not Julie Redmond, but-
Don't take less of me
So much of everything
I'm falling through
When I make love to you
Oh, you find me, define me
You find me, define me
You find me, define me
Oh, you find
You find
You find me
(birds chirping)
- Trying to read my journal?
- No.
- Mm-hm.
- I wasn't.
About last night.
- Hm.
Don't ruin it with words.
(Cara laughing)
(waves crashing)
And don't ever
read my journal,
okay.
(birds chirping)
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
(waves lapping)
- [Emily] That tickles.
- That's the point.
Hi.
- Hi.
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
- Oh.
Looks like the rain put
out the rescue fire.
- Whatever, all I can think
about right now is food.
Do you have any of this
Little, little cakey guys left?
(Cara laughing)
What?
- Man, you eat more than
anyone I've ever met.
You have one hell of an appetite.
- I do have an appetite, it's
not always for food though.
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
- Hey, Em, help me fix the hut!
(waves crashing)
- What the hell, Cara?
- "It's been so long
since I was this happy."
- Give it back.
- "But it won't last, right,
nothing good does and even if
we have these stolen moments,
what happens when we're rescued?
It's not like we're meant to be."
- That wasn't for you.
- Sorry.
(waves crashing)
- If I want you to know
something, I'll tell you.
- Hey,
whether or not we're
rescued, we are meant to be.
(waves crashing)
(fire crackling)
(gentle melodic music)
- It was just, ah,
it was just a few months
into everybody getting sick.
We were running really low on money,
so my parents started
getting really scared,
so we joined this group.
Everybody lived on like
this one big compound,
we grew our own food, had our own school.
When we heard about all the crazy shit,
that was going on in the world,
I mean, we felt protected there.
- Kind of sounds like
it was more like a cult?
- Exactly.
Anyways, a couple weeks
before my 15th birthday,
I overheard this conversation
between my parents
and one of the guys in charge.
They were saying that when I turned 15,
I'd have to get married
and start a family.
He said that we needed
to repopulate the Earth.
- Holy shit.
So what did you do?
- I waited for everybody to go to sleep,
I packed my shit up and then
I got the hell out of there.
So I played poker here
and there to make money.
I was just trying to make enough money
to get as far away from
that bullshit as possible.
How about you?
(fire crackling)
(gentle melodic music)
- Um. (sighing)
My father was a doctor,
so he got sick pretty early on,
he was one of the first to die.
- I'm sorry.
- Thank you.
(fire crackling)
(gentle melodic music)
My mom got scared, (sighing)
so she moved my little sister and I
up to the woods near the northern border.
- You have a sister?
- Had.
Her name was Lucy, she
would've been 14 this year.
(fire crackling)
(gentle melodic music)
And then my mom lost it.
She found a nice guy to marry
and he was happy to take care of her,
only he was a little too interested in me.
- Son of a, I'll fucking kill him.
- No, you don't have to do that,
he wound up getting sick and dying.
But yeah, as I'm sure you noticed,
my mother was looking for a
new sugar daddy on the boat.
(Emily sighing)
- I'm sorry.
- What for?
I don't think any of us
were dealt a fair hand.
You know, I can't even
imagine you as a baby factory.
That is fucked!
- Mega fucked.
Okay, I don't understand
how to do this thing.
What did I do wrong here?
'Cause clearly something's not working.
- Here, you went over it twice.
- Oh, so I go under there and then?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- You have to feed it back
through there, looks good though.
- Does it?
- Yeah.
- I don't know about that,
but it serves a purpose.
- What's the deal with this?
- Hm?
- That's cool.
- My tattoo?
- Yeah.
- It was about a year into being on my own
and I met this really cool woman,
who had a tattoo place in the city.
She actually let me crash
there for a couple weeks,
she was so nice
and as a sort of going away
present, she gave me this,
said that it, you know,
make me look tougher
and scare off assholes.
- (laughing) Oh, right, did it work?
- Hm, sometimes.
I guess.
And like the sky
Clouds are touching us
Improving your life
My girl is such a surprise
She's a queen
- Can I ask you something?
- Shoot.
- Do you think they ever looked for us?
- I don't know.
(waves crashing)
When you think about everything
that's happened, you know,
people getting sick and dying.
Then you look out there
and here, you know.
Look at birds in the sky, on the water
and you,
maybe it's a good thing
no one came for us.
- Maybe.
(soft guitar music)
- [Emily] Come on!
- I'm there.
- Sometime, let's go.
(soft guitar music)
(waves crashing)
Say it is just a state of life
Help me reach and leave them behind
City chaos and dust in our hair
Spitting at us and swinging
(both laughing)
- All right, going under.
- Argh, fuck, oh!
- What?
(soft tense music)
- Oh!
- What, what, what, what, what?
- Oh, my God, oh!
- What happened?
- Fuck, it's, oh, oh!
- What?
- I can't,
stung by a jellyfish or
something. (groaning loudly)
Oh, my God, it fucking burns!
- Okay, okay.
(Cara groaning loudly)
Okay.
(Cara groaning loudly)
You'll be okay.
(Cara groaning loudly)
All right, okay.
One right, one more step.
(Cara groaning loudly)
Here, I'm just gonna lie you down, okay.
Okay, right, God, Jesus
Christ, you're burning up.
- Oh, it really hurts. (groaning)
- Okay, I'm gonna remove the stingers.
(Cara groaning loudly)
Oh, I know, I know.
(Cara breathing heavily)
You're doing so good.
(gentle piano music)
(birds chirping)
(gentle melodic music)
- Hm.
Hm.
(gentle melodic music)
- You scared the shit outta me.
- I'm sorry.
Next time, I'll take your
feelings into consideration
before I get attacked by
a poisonous sea creature.
- I would appreciate that.
I love you
and you don't have to say it back.
- Can you please just stop
talking for one minute,
so I can talk?
I fell in love with you the
second I saw you on that boat.
I lost two hands of poker
in a row thanks to you.
- Did you really?
- (laughing) Yeah.
You know, I looked at you and I thought,
if I get stranded on an island today,
that's who I wanna be stranded with.
- Okay.
- I'm serious.
I mean, I don't know what
I love more about you,
the way that you tilt your
head and arch your eyebrow,
when you don't understand something.
Or no, even better,
the way you play with your
hair when you're nervous
and there, I love the way you
look at me when you want me,
you bite your lip
and you get like this really
serious look in your eyes.
- Okay, okay, okay, okay, stop.
(both laughing)
I believe you.
(gentle orchestral music)
(birds chirping)
(gentle orchestral music)
- Okay, I'll play.
(gentle orchestral music)
You got me.
(gentle orchestral music)
- Surprise!
Happy birthday!
- [Cara] It's not my birthday.
- How do you know?
- I guess technically, it can be, so.
- Make a wish.
- Okay.
(gentle orchestral music)
(waves lapping)
I love it.
- I love you.
Oh, my God!
- What?
- We're gonna miss your
birthday dinner, oh, my God.
I've been waiting months
for this reservation!
I can't be late with the birthday girl!
- Okay, okay.
- Please, please.
- Am I dressed okay?
- [Emily] We're just gonna
have to make it work, darling.
- Make it work.
- For our first course,
we'll be having cocktails
made from our finest gin and cola.
- Ooh!
Fancy.
- And for you, madam.
- Thank you.
Mm.
- And later on, for our
main course of the evening,
we'll be having, give me
a drum roll please, ma'am.
(Cara imitating drum roll)
Fish!
- [Cara] (laughing) Surprise.
- I know, but it's birthday
fish, should be better.
- Okay.
- But first,
if you don't mind,
I like to give a little
toast to the birthday girl.
(waves lapping)
When I first arrived on
this island, I was lost.
Since being here with you,
I realized that this
life we're building here,
this is where I belong.
As long as I have you,
I will never be lost
another day in my life.
Cheers, babe.
- Cheers to that.
- Mm!
- Come here.
- "I reach for the satchel,
that hangs from the warm,
leather strap around my neck.
My hands tremble as I struggle
to remove the pellets from within.
Marco sees it and tries to stop me.
'Wait, we can't let them win.'
'They won't,' I say breathless.
We are lost in the depths
of each other's eyes
for what feels like forever.
My heart misses a beat.
'Show them, all must see,' he says.
I hold my palm in the air,
the pellet out for all to see.
I give Marco a gentle kiss on the cheek."
- Oh, shit, Emily.
(boat engine rumbling)
(waves lapping)
- Who is that?
- I don't know, come on.
It doesn't look like a rescue boat.
(boat engine rumbling)
(waves lapping)
(soft tense music)
(waves lapping)
- Hello?
Anyone there?
Sandcastles don't just build themselves!
Someone's gotta be here!
I'm here to help, I have food and water.
Oh, you're alive!
We've been looking everywhere for you.
- Who's we?
- And who the hell are you?
- I'm Finn, I'm with the rescue crew.
- From the boat?
- Yeah, I've been looking for survivors.
- Oh, my God, do you know
anything about my mom?
Her name is Lila.
- Um.
- Mid forties,
she kind of looks like
me, but she's blonde.
- Yeah, yes, Lila, she's on
the rescue ship safe and sound.
- Oh, my God.
- She was asking about you, you're?
- I'm Emily, I'm her daughter.
- Emily, right and that must make you?
- Cara, this is Cara.
- Cara, of course.
Yeah, we've been finding
survivors all over nearby islands.
Um, I think we found your
mom last week or something.
- But she's okay?
- Yeah.
- That's great news.
- Looks like you guys have
done a pretty great job.
I see you got a hut, books, a fire,
doesn't even really look
like you need rescuing.
- We don't.
- Yeah, well, this is all really great,
but it's pretty dangerous out here,
you know, just the two of you.
It is just the two of you, right or?
- Ah, it's just us.
- Like I said, we don't need rescuing.
- Yep, I see that.
Just think, warm bed, real food, Mom.
No rush anyways, there's
not enough room or gas
to get back to the rescue ship.
We'll have to wait for them here.
Gonna take them a week or two to get here.
Man, your mom's gonna
be so happy to see you.
- I can't believe she's
okay, she's okay! (laughing)
- And in the meantime?
- In the meantime, well,
mind if I make camp
over there by you guys?
It's been pretty lonely out in sea
and I could use a little company.
- Is that chocolate?
- Ah, yeah, do you?
- Yes.
(water lapping)
Oh, my God, chocolate!
This is somehow better than
I remember, oh, my God.
- I know you girls don't
really know me or anything,
so how about I make you a little dinner
and you can get to know me?
- Yeah, that's probably fine.
Do you mind just actually
giving us a minute?
- Wait, is that the chunky kind?
- Ah, yeah, it is.
- Oh!
Okay, you can set up camp over there.
- Sweet, well then, I'll go
get my stuff and get set up.
- Cool.
Do you think we should
have discussed this first?
- Everyone has their price.
Oh, I missed this stuff.
- I see your point.
Mm.
(soft orchestral music)
Oh, okay.
(soft orchestral music)
(waves lapping)
You're making me nervous.
Yes!
Nice!
- Not too bad, huh?
(hands slapping)
- Okay, I wanna do that.
- So yeah, bring that
foot in a little closer.
- My left foot?
- Yeah, look at the end
and then just a big push, ready?
One, two, three.
(Emily shrieking)
Bend your knees a little bit.
- Okay.
Cara!
Look!
(soft orchestral music)
(Cara sighing)
(fire crackling)
- It's amazing what you can
do with the right tools.
- What the hell?
There's flavor in this fish.
- Yeah, well, a little natural sea salt
and there's a bunch of
lemongrass over there,
so figured I'd use it.
Well, I'd usually use my
go-to flavor, peanut butter,
but um, someone jacked it all.
- Yeah, well, you're
never getting that back,
so it's a good thing this worked out.
- No, she's not kidding.
- Okay.
- It's like almost gone.
- So Finn, what's your story?
- My story? I told you,
work for the boat company.
- She means like who are you?
You know, where are you from?
What was your life like
before? Those kinds of things.
- Yeah.
All right, well, um.
I grew up in a small town
just outside of Cincinnati.
- No way.
O-H-I-O
(hand slapping)
(Finn laughing)
- What?
- Where are you from?
- Cleveland.
(Finn laughing)
That's really weird.
- You're an awful long way from home.
- Yeah.
I know.
My mom was an elementary school teacher,
my dad sold farm equipment.
I had two younger sisters, Rosie and Kate
and last but not least, you got me
and I was on my way to OSU
on a football scholarship,
when everything went down.
- That sucks.
I'm really sorry.
- Yeah.
Thanks.
My whole family got it,
they were all gone within like a month.
- Shit, man.
I'm sorry.
- Yeah.
Well then, um, I guess
one thing led to the other
and I wound up getting a job
with the owner of the
ship you guys were on
and that's my story.
- Thanks for sharing.
(fire crackling)
- Well, um, I'm getting pretty tired,
I need to get some shut eye,
so if you guys don't mind?
But don't worry about all the mess,
I'll clean it up in the morning.
- Oh no, we got it, it's all good.
But yeah, hit the hay.
- Thanks for this.
- All right.
Night.
- Night.
(soft melodic music)
(waves lapping)
(Cara and Emily talking indistinctly)
- If you insist.
- I do.
(soft melodic music)
(waves lapping)
- Wait, what are we gonna do?
- I'd rather kiss you.
- Ha ha, you know what I mean.
- [Emily] I don't.
(soft orchestral music)
(waves lapping)
(objects thudding)
(soft orchestral music)
(waves lapping)
- That's some cache of
supplies you got there.
- Oh, this stuff?
We'll have plenty of this and
more on board the rescue ship.
- We didn't say we were going on the ship.
- Right, well, it doesn't
matter much to me,
if you'd rather use bamboo
leaves instead of toilet paper.
- Hey, it's not as bad as it sounds.
What are you up to, you
wanna come for a swim?
There's actually some
like really cool stuff,
if you get out past the reef.
- Sure, now?
- Okay.
- Hm, nice cards.
- Nice shorts.
(soft orchestral music)
The streets we love
They're mixed with life
(water splashing)
(Cara and Emily shrieking)
- [Both] One, two,
three, four! (shrieking)
(water splashing)
I'm training for a place
you can feel the rush there
And it turned out we're invincible
Ah ah ah ah
- [Finn] All right, remember
outside ring is 10, next is 20,
you hit the bullseye, that's 50.
- Winner gets to do whatever she wants
for the rest of the day
and the other two have to like make dinner
and do all the chores that come with that.
- Hm, deal.
- Did I mention my
scholarship was for football?
- You did.
- And did I mention I was
the (coughing) quarterback?
- (coughing) Yeah, you did.
(Finn laughing)
- All right, new guy goes first.
- All right, don't say I didn't warn you.
(coconut thudding)
Ball!
Whoop!
(coconut thudding)
Ah ah ah ah
- Wow, trick shot.
- And that is 120 points for me.
- [Emily] Take it away, Cara.
Ah ah ah ah
(coconut thudding)
- Nice.
Ah ah ah ah
(coconut thudding)
- Whoo, that's my girl!
- You gotta kiss this one.
Ah ah ah ah
(Cara grunting)
(coconut thudding)
- [Emily] Nice!
Tie game.
(coconut thudding)
(Cara laughing)
(Emily grunting)
(coconut thudding)
One more.
(coconut thudding)
- And I thought I knew you.
- So if you guys need me,
I'll be down the beach
reading for the remainder of the day.
Oh and I'd like dinner just after sundown.
No, just before sundown?
Surprise me.
Sorry, what are you guys still doing here?
- Yep, nope.
- Ah.
Right away, boss.
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
- [Cara] Joking aside,
but on the bright side,
the coconuts are pretty juicy, so.
- That's good, 'cause I'm pretty thirsty.
- Oh, let me get you one.
- No!
- Grab my pole.
- I got it.
(light melodic music)
Here you go.
Whoo!
Cheers.
- That was-
- No big deal.
So is Emily always this bossy?
(Cara grunting)
(machete tapping)
- Here.
Watch.
You wanna go with the grain.
(machete tapping)
Overall, it's a great structure.
But you see right here?
- [Cara] Yeah.
- It's a bit of a weak spot.
- Yeah, it's not my best work.
- Ah, watch,
(leaves crunching)
if you layer it in opposite directions,
that way, it will cover everything.
- Huh?
- Then we can put some rocks
on top to hold it down,
you should be good to go.
- Sounds good, I'll pass these to you.
(leaves crunching)
- Um, listen, Cara,
I'm not here to show you up
and I'm not here to try
and get between you two.
I see you guys have
something really special
and I have no intentions for ruining that.
- Thank you, that's great to hear.
But you gotta know how things
look from this end, right?
- Ah, yeah, I guess.
(leaves crunching)
- Anyways, I mean, we never said
that we weren't gonna
go on the boat with you,
we just have to think
things through, you know?
- Got it.
Well hey, while we're at it,
what do you say we make a
little nook right there.
It shouldn't take long with us both.
- Sounds good, let's do it.
(leaves crunching)
No surprise, you see only
what is in your sight
And I know it's just a game you play
- This one, all right.
I'll lock you down and push you up
You hold me up the same way
- All right,
two rolls of toilet paper,
Band-aids, matches and a stick of gum.
- Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, all in.
- I'll show you mine if you show me yours.
I let you get inside of my head
- Royal flush.
- Inside straight.
Shit.
(Cara laughing)
- Why do you sound so surprised?
- Well, I guess I really shouldn't be,
considering your 24/7 resting poker face.
(Cara laughing)
- Hello?
Hi, guys, strangest thing,
I was walking back from the beach
and I think, "Boy, am I hungry."
And then I think, "Perfect timing,
'cause Finn and Cara are
making dinner, you know,
since I won the bet and all,"
then I get here and there's no smell,
you know, there's no food cooking at all.
Didn't you guys think
that's kind of weird?
- Yeah, yeah,
that was ah, my bad.
Got a little carried away
with the hut as you can see.
- Yeah, we were taking a little break
and then one thing led to the
next, but I built you a patio.
- Oh, it's beautiful.
- And I won this for you.
- (gasping) Shut up.
I love it.
- Want a swig?
- No, what?
- I am getting pretty hungry.
- Me too.
- You guys better get to it.
- Guess I won some done.
(melodic guitar music)
Still I find I'm sad
(water splashing)
(bird calling)
And I cry, will you hold my hand
Can you just hold my hand
- This is paradise.
We will make it soon
- Heaven on Earth.
- Everything we need is
right here and then some.
- I get it.
Well, you wanna stay?
- Yeah, we'll see.
It's a lot to think about.
A lot to consider.
Are you thinking of staying?
- No.
I have some things I need to do.
I'm glad I'm here
with you guys.
- Me too.
I'm still laughing now
Just think of what could be
If I was still around
The schedules were free
- So it turns out Finn's pretty cool, huh?
- Hm, jury's still out on that.
- Really?
You guys seem thick as thieves.
- I don't know, there's
just something off about him
and I just can't put my finger on it.
- [Emily] You think maybe
you just don't trust anybody?
- [Cara] Maybe you're right.
(gentle piano music)
(radio beeping)
- [Man] We'll be there in two days.
- Okay, gotta go, over and out.
- Roger that.
- Hey!
- Hey.
The rescue ship?
- Yeah, they said they're
not too far off now.
- Any word on my mom?
- Yeah, yeah, they said she's really happy
and can't wait to see you.
(gentle orchestral music)
- Do you think I could talk to her?
- Um.
I'm really sorry,
it's just protocol
doesn't actually allow it.
We're supposed to keep
communications down to a minimum,
you know, power rations and stuff.
Maybe I can get them to make an exception.
- Yeah, that, that would be amazing, yeah.
(radio hissing and beeping)
(Emily sighing)
- Sorry, that's weird.
- What?
(radio hissing)
- It doesn't seem to be
picking up the channel.
- [Emily] What do you mean?
- The signal must be
scrambled or something.
- Okay, well, um, can you reset it?
- Ah, to be honest, it might
be best to just try later.
- Yeah, I guess it just
wasn't meant to be.
- No, no, don't say that.
What were you gonna ask her anyways,
about staying here or going with her?
- I was hoping talking to
her would help me decide.
- It's a pretty tough call, huh?
- I just feel like I'm forced to choose
between my mom and Cara.
- Well,
(soft melodic music)
if Cara loves you, she'll understand.
If you ask her to go, she'll go with you.
(water splashing)
- Going for a fruit run,
breakfast, anybody interested?
- I'm in.
Do you wanna come?
- I'm gonna hang back.
Thanks though.
(water splashing)
- [Finn] So I got word
that the rescue ship
isn't too far off.
- [Cara] Oh, yeah,
is that what you and
Em were talking about?
- Yeah.
- Watch this.
I know she wants to go. (sighing)
- Ah, not exactly.
- [Cara] Could've fooled me.
- It's complicated for her.
- There's so many elements
involved and I don't even know,
I just can't stop thinking about it
and it's making me crazy.
- She loves you.
- (sighing) I know,
and I know she'll stay if I asked, right?
I mean, you think so?
- Yeah,
but it is her mother, I
mean, do you wanna stay here
and risk living the rest of your lives
with her resenting you
for choosing the island?
- No, I guess not.
- What are you doing?
- I'm coming with you
and I know this stuff isn't worth much,
but it means something to me.
- When did I say I wanted to go?
Don't you think this is something
we should decide together?
- Well, I just, I know
how conflicted you've been
and I just wanna take the stress
off your hands, it's fine.
- Cara,
I'm conflicted because the
truth is I don't wanna go
and I feel like crap because of that.
- What do you mean?
- Being here with you
has been the happiest
time of my entire life
and forget about the fact that
the world has gone to shit,
you're everything to me now.
The way you look at me,
you see me, you don't just write me off
as some damsel in distress
like everyone else does.
You know what I can do,
you push me to do it.
- Well, you just, you make it easy.
- I'm not done.
I know that when we first got here,
I spent a lot of time and
energy trying to be rescued.
But the truth is,
I was rescued the second
I washed up on that beach,
you rescued me and there's
not a single place on Earth,
that I wanna be other
than exactly right here
with you.
- I just, I don't wanna be here because-
- I know you don't wanna be the reason,
you're not the reason, I'm the reason,
I'm choosing, I just told you.
- Just know I'll come with you,
here, home, wherever, I mean,
it just, it doesn't matter,
just as long as we're together, okay?
I just don't want you to regret
not going back to your mom,
just promise me you'll
think about it, okay?
- That's the only thing I can think about.
- And by the way, I think
you were right about Finn.
- Yeah?
- I guess I'm just too used to waiting
for the other shoe to drop,
but he's just been on the up and up.
I guess my sixth sense
was just off this time.
If you trust him, I trust him.
- I do.
- Okay.
He's not here.
- Yeah, I know, I'm ready.
(Cara exhaling heavily)
Okay, ready.
- Like we practiced, okay.
- Yeah.
- Okay, one, two, three.
- [Both] Help!
Help, help!
- Ah, help!
- Can anybody help?
Oh, my God, oh, my God, this is bad!
- [Both] Surprise! (laughing)
- Oh, my fucking God, you guys
scared the shit out of me.
- Your face. (laughing)
- Sorry, that's probably kind of mean.
- Yeah.
What's all this?
- It's a going away party.
- You're not coming?
- We don't really know yet,
so maybe it's a going away party for you,
maybe it's a going away
party for all of us.
- Either way, it's a party.
- Well, in that case, I've
got a surprise for you.
- No way.
- Oh, God.
- Yep.
- I love surprises.
- I hate surprises.
- What is it?
- [Finn] You're gonna love this one, Cara!
- Oh, goodness me.
I wanna get out of my
head, out of my head
- Aw, that's a nice touch.
- Yeah, I've been holding back,
didn't wanna drain the battery,
but since the ship's
gonna be here pretty soon,
I thought why not?
- That's good.
- What do we have here? (sniffing)
Lemongrass coke.
- Wow, he's good.
- Well, it was either
that or peanut butter.
- For sure.
- Oh, you know,
can't go wrong with that.
- Here's some gin.
- Merci beaucoup.
(fire crackling)
(Cara laughing)
- No and then he,
he stomps out there and he is like,
"Hey, you babes, hang
tight in the kitchen."
- "Hang tight in the kitchen."
- "I gonna go do man stuff."
- I don't sound like that.
- Yes.
- And then he like struts into the jungle
and then all of a sudden
you hear like, "Uh!"
- No, I think it was
more like (screaming)!
- And then out he comes with
like a single fucking coconut,
it's like the saddest fucking
coconut I've ever seen.
- Single one.
- Hey,
at least I got a coconut.
- I could've done a much better job.
- Ah-huh, I'm just saying
we would've been eating
till breakfast.
- Yeah.
- This girl can get some coconuts.
- I can with my new ladder.
- I'm good.
- You know what I like about you?
- My smile?
- No, well, yes, I do like your smile,
but I'm talking about this one over here.
You know, you're a good one.
You know, so many guys
would come here and just,
just like really take advantage of us,
but not you, Finn, you're a good guy.
To Finn.
- To Finn!
- One of the good guys.
- Guys,
no way, I-
- Yes, way, cheers!
- Cheers, eyes!
- Okay.
- Yes, looking in the eyes
otherwise it's bad luck.
- Yeah.
- Here we go.
- [Emily] To Finn.
- To Finn.
I don't know about you guys,
but I'm like feeling a little bit weird.
I think I'm gonna lay down, I
think I had too much to drink.
- Okay.
- Night, guys.
- I should go help her.
- Yeah, well, yeah.
(mellow melodic music)
- Oh, my God.
- What's this?
- Did you play this on purpose?
- No.
- This is like my favorite song.
- Well, in that case, may I
have this wonderful dance?
- Oh.
- My lady?
- [Emily] Okay.
When my lover keeps at play
Play
Said hey, hey, hey
I don't wanna be a rabbit caged
What nobody can say
May
So don't let me go
'Cause I'll never feel it
Don't let me go
- I...
I think I need to call it a night.
- Of course.
- [Emily] Finn.
- Hm?
- You are one of the good ones.
Goodnight.
- Night, Emily.
Goodnight.
Oh, ah ah ah ah, oh
Oh, ah ah ah ah, oh
(Finn exhaling heavily)
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
(objects clattering)
(soft melodic music)
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
(objects clattering)
(tense melodic music)
- No, no, no!
(tense melodic music)
My God, Mom!
Finn!
(tense melodic music)
- It's hard to say.
Emily won't be a problem,
she's pretty gullible.
I'm a little worried about
the feisty one though,
she could put up a fight.
- [Man] We'll take care of that,
it'll be worth it once we sell them off.
- Copy that.
Okay, dude, I should go,
see you in a few hours.
- [Man] Roger and out.
(tense melodic music)
- Whoa, Emily, you're an early riser.
- Who the hell are you?
- Let's just calm down.
- [Emily] You told me my mother was alive.
- I can explain.
- Who the hell were you just talking to?
- Em, stop, what are you doing?
- This guy who's been living with us,
who we trusted has been playing us.
You were right all along,
Cara, my mom's dead,
I found her body and a bunch
of others at the inlet.
There is no rescue ship, everybody's dead.
- Is that true?
- Let me just explain for one second.
- Please explain how you're
a fucking trafficker!
Explain how you plan on selling us!
- What the hell?
- You girls don't understand.
You're too valuable, they
will never let you go.
So let's just cut the pretense
and do what're meant to do.
(tense melodic music)
- Sorry.
Kill the bad man.
Uh!
(pole thudding)
(soft tense music)
Oh, my God!
(Finn whimpering)
(soft tense music)
(waves crashing)
- Oh, shit.
It's gotta be who Finn's being contacting.
- [Emily] We've gotta hide the body.
- Wait, I have a better idea.
(water splashing)
(soft tense music)
(radio beeping)
- [Emily] You know how to work this?
- [Woman] Sea Wolf, Sea Wolf,
this is Sea Hawk, MGDHO4.
- Okay, I got it.
- No.
- Sea Hawk, this is Sea
Wolf, request help, over.
- [Woman] Who is this, where is Finn?
- Finn, Finn is sick,
he he, he's burning up.
We all got sick, it happened really fast.
We need medical assistance immediately.
- God, this better work.
(soft tense music)
(boat engine rumbling)
(both gasping with relief)
(gentle melodic music)
(waves crashing)
(gentle melodic music)
(waves crashing)
- You okay?
- Yeah.
So what now?
- What do you mean?
We have everything we need right here.
(waves crashing)
- Heaven on Earth.
(mellow upbeat music)
Ain't nobody here to tell me
How am I to climb this mountain
Oh, stay right beside me
Watch me climb, watch
me climb, watch me
Ain't nobody here to guide me
How am I to cross this river
Oh, stay right beside me
Watch me cross, watch
me cross, watch me
Just watch me climb
Don't take off your eyes while I climb

(tense melodic music)
(Lila breathing deeply)
(notes rustling)
(Lila gasping)
(tense melodic music)
- [Emily] Growing up, my mom used to say,
"Change is the only cost of new life."
She was right, everyone was running,
everyone was sick and
scared with nowhere to go.
Survival instincts had kicked in
and my mom was good at
survival, she had to be.
I, on the other hand, was not, not yet.
(tense melodic music)
We lost so much since everyone got sick,
my dad, then my sister and
now it's just me and my mom.
Even my cat, Maggie's gone.
(car door clicking)
(car door thudding)
- What were you doing in there?
Oh, my God, you got us Safe Bands?
- Mm-hm.
- How?
- You're my life, I've
paid everything and more
for two spots for us,
I made you a promise,
we're getting out of here alive.
(Lila exhaling heavily)
(car engine starting)
(car rumbling quietly)
Seatbelt.
- It's on.
Pedestrians, pedestrians.
- [Lila] Okay, I got it.
- Think we'll make it to this boat?
- Oh, we will.
(tense melodic music)
Hold on.
(tense melodic music)
Okay.
(car doors thudding)
Go, go, go.
- Which one is it?
- Through here.
Yep.
Ah, straight ahead.
- There?
- Yep.
- Whoa, whoa!
- [Man] What the fuck? I'm not sick, man!
- Hey.
- Hi, we have bands.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
- Hey.
Okay, okay.
- Healthy as a horse.
- What does that mean?
- It means,
you're special.
- [Lila] Up there, come on.
(soft melodic music)
- [Emily] Yes, we made it onto this boat.
Yes, we're part of the lucky few,
but I'm starting to think
maybe we should have stayed,
watched the world burn,
because where the hell do we go from here?
- Mm.
(glasses clinking)
- To the first time. (laughing)
- To another time.
Hm!
- [Walter] Just a little whiskey.
- Maybe some water actually?
- Hm, no, honey, you should drink your...
- Whiskey.
- Whiskey.
- Yeah.
- I'm not thirsty anymore.
- Aw!
- More for us.
(both laughing)
(soft tense music)
(fingers snapping)
- I'll take one.
- Nice hand.
- I'll say.
- [Emily] Mom, we should
go back to the room.
- Oh honey, I'm here with, um?
- Walter.
- Walter, you go, I'll meet up with you.
- Mom, this guy's not
gonna solve your problems.
- Hey, women always solve my problems.
- I see, mm-hm.
We need a win.
- Yeah, but not like this.
I'm going to bed.
- Goodnight?
- Oh.
(Walter laughing)
(soft melodic music)
(wind blowing)
(Cara knocking)
(soft melodic music)
(door clicking)
- You okay?
- [Emily] Yeah.
- Lock your door.
(soft melodic music)
(door thudding)
(soft melodic music)
(waves crashing)
- [Cara] Okay.
(soft tense music)
(Lila knocking)
- [Lila] Honey, it's me.
(knocking) Come on, open up.
(door clicking)
- [Emily] Hi, come in.
- Oh.
(tense melodic music)
(door thudding)
Oh, "All's well that ends well."
That's from Shakespeare.
- Okay, do you wanna take a shower?
- No.
You go, do your thing.
You're gonna like them.
Get ready for bed, hm?
- Okay.
- Yep.
- At least put some pajamas on.
- No.
(tense melodic music)

The storm is getting really bad!
(dramatic melodic music)
(glass shattering)
(Cara screaming)
(rain pattering)
(thunder rumbling)
(waves crashing)
(tense melodic music)
- Shit.
Come on, girl.
Come on, girl.
(Emily coughing)
- Get off of me!
- "Thank you, Cara, for saving my life."
"Oh, you're welcome."
Jesus.
- What happened?
Oh, my God, where are we?
- You don't remember the storm?
You remember being on
the ship though, right?
- Yeah.
- We capsized.
- We what?
- We capsized.
- Where is everybody else?
Where's my mom?
- No one's here.
- What do you mean no one's here?
You checked everywhere?
- No, but I checked most of the island.
- Not all of it.
- Where are you-
- Mom!
- I already looked down there!
- [Emily] Mom!
- We need to build some sort
of shelter or something!
- I gotta find my mom!
- Fine, I'll do it myself.
Jesus Christ.
(waves crashing)
(Emily breathing heavily)
- Come on, she's gotta be somewhere else.
Okay.
(waves crashing)
Fucking serious?
(soft piano music)

(Cara grunting)

(Cara grunting)
- Uh, ow!
Come on.
(coconut thudding)
(Cara grunting)
There we go.
(soft orchestral music)
(Cara exhaling heavily)
(Emily sighing heavily)
(gentle piano music)
I thought you might be hungry.
- Thanks.
(gentle piano music)
- So what's your name?
It's not a trick question, you know.
- Emily.
- Here.
(gentle piano music)
I'm Cara.
I saw you on the boat.
Is that your mom you were with?
Okay, you don't have to talk, it's fine,
but I built a little
shed thing over there,
it's not much, but it's better than-
- I'm good where I am.
- You sure about that?
I mean, it rains pretty often,
so if I were you, I would...
Well, if you change your
mind, you know, it's-
- I won't.
- [Cara] Whatever.
(gentle orchestral music)
(waves crashing)
(soft orchestral music)
(water splashing)
(soft orchestral music)
(water splashing)
(Cara grunting)
(soft orchestral music)
(water splashing)
(Cara grunting)
(water splashing)
Oh, son of a bitch!
- You're doing it wrong.
- [Cara] Oh, yeah?
Why don't you come out here
and show me how it's done?
- Okay.
(waves crashing)
(water splashing)
(water splashing)
(Emily grunting)
- Wow, Jesus.
- Do you want this?
- Who would've known that I'm
shipwrecked with Captain Ahab?
(water splashing)
- It's not that hard.
What, you wanna learn?
Come on, grab it right there.
- Okay.
- Yeah, right on there
and hold here.
- Okay.
- Other way, relax a little bit.
So you see that fish?
You're gonna go for that one,
but you're gonna wait
for it to come to you.
Watch it, keep your eye on it
and go, go, go, go!
(water splashing)
Hey, good one.
- I did it! (laughing)
- Good job.
- Fucking got that sucker.
Look at that.
- What is that?
- I don't know.
(soft orchestral music)
(water splashing)
- Let's bring it in.
- Okay.
- I'm gonna pull, you push.
- Right.
(water splashing)
- Ah!
- (laughing) Look at this stuff.
- Look at this.
Cute!
- We can have tea and crumpets.
- Ah, yes.
- [Cara] Set the table.
- Hold on, I think I just
found someone's diary.
- Oh-oh.
- By the looks of it.
(soft orchestral music)
(waves crashing)
"Dear Diary, Day four on this island
and I'm beginning to think we
might be stuck here forever."
(Cara laughing)
Wait, I'm sorry, that was me.
(soft orchestral music)
(waves crashing)
It's probably all some
poor family had left.
Now they might be gone too.
- Hey, you can't let yourself
think of it that way,
it's too depressing.
Oh!
Cara is wearing an original design
by a fabulous fashion icon,
Monsieur Boxer.
This new collection is
called Lit Underwear
and as you can see, it's a
great color for all skin tones
and the classic oversized style
enables a whole range of movement,
which makes way for much fun
on pretty much any island you wash up on.
- Okay.
Very funny,
you got me.
I'm hungry.
- Well, got those fish over there.
You know anything about fires?
- Of course, we need to get
a rescue signal going anyway,
so that works, make a fire,
kill two birds, one stone.
- Sounds good.
- You wanna help me gather
some twigs and stuff?
- Oh, I bet these would go up
in flames pretty quick, huh?
- You're kidding?
This is our rescue flag.
- Yeah, do that.
(bright melodic music)
- Are you coming with me?
- Yeah, coming!
Take my mind
And I'm with you
- So, sit right here.
- Mm-hm.
- Both hands together, rub.
And rub.
- You sure about this?
- Yes.
I don't got no real estate
- You just need patience.
I could find a place to
see it all a different way
- [Emily] Come on.
You got what you need
And the world's at your feet
- And that should be enough.
Summer days, summer nights
(Emily blowing)
Losing time, bloodshot eyes
- Look at that.
It's okay when shit's done
I don't mind, I don't mind
- Whoo!
No way.
We got ourselves a fire.
- Fires and fishing,
were you like the Girl Scout or something?
- Something like that.
No time to keep
- Impressed.
My head's not right
'Cause I can't sleep
- Oh, its eyeballs, it's like
it's staring right at me.
- You know, you're kind of a wuss
for someone who acts so tough.
Ain't nobody knows my name
If I could find a place and
see it all a different way
Slow down, it hurts when you sleep
And nobody can see right now
Slow down
- What?
It's not gonna bite you.
- No, dead.
- [Emily] Bring it over here.
It's okay, waste your time
I don't mind, I don't mind
- Hm.
Okay, come on, you can do it.
- Okay, I'd probably have to say
Mickey D's french fries
with extra ketchup.
- [Cara] Oh man, so good.
- Reading a good book
or any book at this point
and binge watching everything
and music, I really do miss music.
- Yeah, definitely.
Okay, for me, hm,
movie theater popcorn.
Wait, no licorice, but
none of that red stuff,
it's gotta be straight
up black to be legit.
Laughing,
God, I really miss laughter.
- You don't really strike me as someone,
that ever laughed that much.
- What? No, I just need
something to laugh about.
- That's fair.
Okay, you got one more.
- Hm.
Oh, obviously making
out with Julie Redmond
behind her pool house. (laughing)
She had the softest lips ever.
- Yeah, or just touching
anyone for that matter.
Do you remember what
things were like before?
- Barely.
I can't believe it's
only been like two years.
- [Emily] Feels like forever.
- It does.
All right.
I got one.
This one's for you.
- Thank you so much.
- You're welcome.
(waves lapping)
(soft orchestral music)
- Hey, come in, it feels amazing!
- Rain check, I got some snacks.
(soft orchestral music)
Got some goodies.
- Oh, my God, you got a mango?
I love mangoes.
Mm!
Oh, my God.
So I was exploring a bit this morning
and I found a tidal pool
full of crabs and like a bunch
of other stuff you can eat,
so I was thinking if I
can make it some place?
- Yeah, sure, yeah,
that sounds good to me.
- Nice touch.
- I know this can't replace your family,
but I figure this would make things
feel a little bit more homey for you.
- That's sweet.
- Besides, you're probably sick of my face
being the only one you ever see.
- Not even a little.
That's Henry
and his wife Veronica of course,
but you might know her as Ronnie.
They were high school sweethearts
and got married right after college.
- Okay.
- On the right is Hank Junior,
he's a lot older than this now,
but he's basically a good kid,
you know, until he developed
that nasty gambling habit,
you've probably heard about it.
And that's Zoe on the
left, she's the smart one.
- Right, she got a full ride
to MIT, where she is now
and she's working on a
way to save the world.
- And, and thank God for Zoe,
'cause I mean, after
Veronica's flower episode.
- You realize this is
getting weird, right?
- Yeah, it totally is.
Um, thoughts on exploring the island?
- Maybe we can stay here on our beach?
- Hm, no, maybe we could go, come on.
- Okay.
- Come on.
- All right, so why are
we doing this again?
- What do you mean?
As guests of the island,
it's important we get to
know the lay of the land.
- Right, 'cause the
bugs here are different
than the bugs by our camp.
- No, I saw this movie
once where these people-
- Wait, wait, wait, give me a second.
- We're waiting.
I saw this movie once where
these people were shipwrecked
and they like-
- Wait, wait, let me guess,
they ate each other, right?
- Ew, don't be gross!
Why is that the first thing
you think of? Come on.
- All right.
- We're leaving.
- Oh.
- They finally get around to tracking
on the other side of the
island and what do they find?
A resort with food and
massages and like a lazy river,
all of it within like a mile
of where they've been stranded
for the last three months, I don't know.
- Wait, so let me get this straight,
you're saying that we're gonna find
some sort of tropical resort,
that's been unaffected
by the last few years
and it's just right over
that ridge over there.
- Not necessarily, but you never know.
Holy!
- Crap, that's...
- Amazing.
(soft melodic music)
(waterfall gushing)
- Last one in makes dinner!
- What?
Oh, my God, you're such a cheater.
- No, I'm not.
(both shrieking)
(water splashing)
(mellow melodic music)
(mellow melodic music continues)
We spent so much time in there.
- We look like prunes,
like little raisins.
- Little raisins.
(birds chirping)
- Hey.
Know what that is?
- What?
- A cashew tree.
- Okay.
- They're so good!
Come on, we can roast them!
- I'm running, I just-
- Uh!
(Emily thudding to ground)
- Em!
(soft tense music)
Em!
(Emily groaning)
Are you okay?
- I don't know, I can't move my leg.
- I-I'm coming, just
stay right there, okay.
Shit, oh, shit, you're really stuck.
Hey, um, I-I'm gonna lift this off of you
and I want you to move
your leg out fast, okay?
(soft tense music)
Look at me.
I'm not gonna let anything
happen to you, okay?
I promise, I'm gonna count to three, okay.
One, two, three. (grunting)
- Uh!
- (breathing heavily) Okay.
- What do we do now?
- No, seriously, you
should've seen yourself,
probably scared away all the
wild animals in the jungle.
- Thank you, I don't
know what I was thinking,
I could've gotten us both killed.
- Hey,
but you didn't.
- But I could have.
What if something happens to one of us?
- Then we deal with it,
literally like we are right now.
- No, like what if something really bad
happens to one of us,
what if something happens?
What if something happens
to you and I can't,
like I can't do anything about it?
- Well, in case you haven't noticed,
I can take care of myself just fine.
- Wait, so what, you, you really think,
that we can just stay here on the island,
just you and I like, like forever?
- What, you think it's safer
out there than it is here?
- Yeah.
- Because from what I saw,
I mean, you had a hell of
a lot more to worry about
on that boat than you
do here on this island.
- I handled the situation
on the boat fine.
- It's such bullshit!
(solemn melodic music)
It's been a long life
Black skies glowing
We're losing light
Where am I going
Black skies glowing
High
The wind blows high
Winter's life
- (laughing) Score!
(gentle piano music)
(Cara grunting)
(objects thudding)

(waves lapping)
(Cara grunting)
(gentle piano music)
(waves lapping)
(Cara grunting)
(gentle piano music)
(waves lapping)
- Hi.
- Hi.
- I'm really sorry, you were right,
this is the safest place for us.
I'm just worried, I don't know
if my mom is dead or alive
and-
- No, no, no, you're right.
It's not fair for me to
tell you where you belong.
- Maybe not, but you
weren't totally wrong.
What is that?
- Check it out.
Washed up with the tide
an hour or so that way.
It's gotta be from our ship, right?
- You got me canned meat?
- I guess if all you've been
eating is bland fish and fruit,
that shit's disgusting.
- It's actually really good.
- Yeah.
- Have you ever had it?
- No, I haven't.
Now this is more my speed.
- [Emily] Okay.
- Oh, I got you this.
(gentle piano music)
Holy crap!
Soap and a hairbrush, I know
what I'm doing. (laughing)
- Heck, yeah.
(fire crackling)
- That smells so good.
- And I will never take
soap for granted again.
- No kidding.
- I didn't realize how dirty I felt.
- Right.
My hair was disgusting.
Safe days
- What?
- Nothing. (laughing)
- Pass me that.
- I'll do it.
- Um, it's fine, you
just, you don't have to.
- I know that I don't have to.
I want to.
- You know, I-I can
just take it from here.
- Can you relax?
You are so uncomfortable
with anyone doing anything nice for you.
- Okay.
Just go ahead.
Why don't you just stay today
Is it all right 'cause I
wish we could just stay
- There, that wasn't so bad, right?
- Thank you.
- Can I have my Coke now?
- Yes.
- Thank you.
- Sure.
I'm gonna dive into some of this.
Ooh!
Okay, if this doesn't remind
you that you're alive,
nothing will, take a sip.
God, this stuff is good.
- (gasps) How many seconds was that?
I think it was nine.
- I don't know what you were just doing.
- I was holding, I thought we were having
a breath holding contest.
(both laughing)
- Since when?
You were just quiet for an
abnormal amount of time,
I was like, wow, since when are you quiet?
- I misunderstood.
- Enjoy.
- How do you not know
what the cabbage patch is?
- I don't know.
- [Emily] Did you grow up under a rock?
- Kind of.
- Can I teach you?
- Yes, you can teach me.
- You just gotta go,
ooh, ooh, ooh ooh!
- Like.
- Not, not, no, no, no, no, no.
You see it?
- (laughing) It's amazing.
- You gotta make a wish.
- Wait, let me think.
Okay.
- What did you wish for?
- I wish that we, wait a
minute, I'm not gonna tell you.
- How come?
- It's not gonna come true.
- Oh, that's not true.
- Yes, it is.
- People just say that, that's not real.
- [Cara] Yes, it is.
- Fine.
(melodic guitar music)
- Hey, Em, can I ask you something?
- Of course.
- Nevermind.
- Okay.
(wind blowing)
(waves crashing)
(soft melodic music)
(rain pattering)
- Hey, let me help.
(soft melodic music)
(rain pattering)
Just looking at your
ankle makes mine hurt.
- If I were you, I'd be more
worried about your face.
- Ha ha.
It's not that bad.
- I don't know, it looks pretty bad to me.
(soft melodic music)
(rain pattering)
No?
- Is this what you want?
- This is exactly what I want
from the minute I saw you on that boat.
I know I'm not Julie Redmond, but-
Don't take less of me
So much of everything
I'm falling through
When I make love to you
Oh, you find me, define me
You find me, define me
You find me, define me
Oh, you find
You find
You find me
(birds chirping)
- Trying to read my journal?
- No.
- Mm-hm.
- I wasn't.
About last night.
- Hm.
Don't ruin it with words.
(Cara laughing)
(waves crashing)
And don't ever
read my journal,
okay.
(birds chirping)
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
(waves lapping)
- [Emily] That tickles.
- That's the point.
Hi.
- Hi.
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
- Oh.
Looks like the rain put
out the rescue fire.
- Whatever, all I can think
about right now is food.
Do you have any of this
Little, little cakey guys left?
(Cara laughing)
What?
- Man, you eat more than
anyone I've ever met.
You have one hell of an appetite.
- I do have an appetite, it's
not always for food though.
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
- Hey, Em, help me fix the hut!
(waves crashing)
- What the hell, Cara?
- "It's been so long
since I was this happy."
- Give it back.
- "But it won't last, right,
nothing good does and even if
we have these stolen moments,
what happens when we're rescued?
It's not like we're meant to be."
- That wasn't for you.
- Sorry.
(waves crashing)
- If I want you to know
something, I'll tell you.
- Hey,
whether or not we're
rescued, we are meant to be.
(waves crashing)
(fire crackling)
(gentle melodic music)
- It was just, ah,
it was just a few months
into everybody getting sick.
We were running really low on money,
so my parents started
getting really scared,
so we joined this group.
Everybody lived on like
this one big compound,
we grew our own food, had our own school.
When we heard about all the crazy shit,
that was going on in the world,
I mean, we felt protected there.
- Kind of sounds like
it was more like a cult?
- Exactly.
Anyways, a couple weeks
before my 15th birthday,
I overheard this conversation
between my parents
and one of the guys in charge.
They were saying that when I turned 15,
I'd have to get married
and start a family.
He said that we needed
to repopulate the Earth.
- Holy shit.
So what did you do?
- I waited for everybody to go to sleep,
I packed my shit up and then
I got the hell out of there.
So I played poker here
and there to make money.
I was just trying to make enough money
to get as far away from
that bullshit as possible.
How about you?
(fire crackling)
(gentle melodic music)
- Um. (sighing)
My father was a doctor,
so he got sick pretty early on,
he was one of the first to die.
- I'm sorry.
- Thank you.
(fire crackling)
(gentle melodic music)
My mom got scared, (sighing)
so she moved my little sister and I
up to the woods near the northern border.
- You have a sister?
- Had.
Her name was Lucy, she
would've been 14 this year.
(fire crackling)
(gentle melodic music)
And then my mom lost it.
She found a nice guy to marry
and he was happy to take care of her,
only he was a little too interested in me.
- Son of a, I'll fucking kill him.
- No, you don't have to do that,
he wound up getting sick and dying.
But yeah, as I'm sure you noticed,
my mother was looking for a
new sugar daddy on the boat.
(Emily sighing)
- I'm sorry.
- What for?
I don't think any of us
were dealt a fair hand.
You know, I can't even
imagine you as a baby factory.
That is fucked!
- Mega fucked.
Okay, I don't understand
how to do this thing.
What did I do wrong here?
'Cause clearly something's not working.
- Here, you went over it twice.
- Oh, so I go under there and then?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- You have to feed it back
through there, looks good though.
- Does it?
- Yeah.
- I don't know about that,
but it serves a purpose.
- What's the deal with this?
- Hm?
- That's cool.
- My tattoo?
- Yeah.
- It was about a year into being on my own
and I met this really cool woman,
who had a tattoo place in the city.
She actually let me crash
there for a couple weeks,
she was so nice
and as a sort of going away
present, she gave me this,
said that it, you know,
make me look tougher
and scare off assholes.
- (laughing) Oh, right, did it work?
- Hm, sometimes.
I guess.
And like the sky
Clouds are touching us
Improving your life
My girl is such a surprise
She's a queen
- Can I ask you something?
- Shoot.
- Do you think they ever looked for us?
- I don't know.
(waves crashing)
When you think about everything
that's happened, you know,
people getting sick and dying.
Then you look out there
and here, you know.
Look at birds in the sky, on the water
and you,
maybe it's a good thing
no one came for us.
- Maybe.
(soft guitar music)
- [Emily] Come on!
- I'm there.
- Sometime, let's go.
(soft guitar music)
(waves crashing)
Say it is just a state of life
Help me reach and leave them behind
City chaos and dust in our hair
Spitting at us and swinging
(both laughing)
- All right, going under.
- Argh, fuck, oh!
- What?
(soft tense music)
- Oh!
- What, what, what, what, what?
- Oh, my God, oh!
- What happened?
- Fuck, it's, oh, oh!
- What?
- I can't,
stung by a jellyfish or
something. (groaning loudly)
Oh, my God, it fucking burns!
- Okay, okay.
(Cara groaning loudly)
Okay.
(Cara groaning loudly)
You'll be okay.
(Cara groaning loudly)
All right, okay.
One right, one more step.
(Cara groaning loudly)
Here, I'm just gonna lie you down, okay.
Okay, right, God, Jesus
Christ, you're burning up.
- Oh, it really hurts. (groaning)
- Okay, I'm gonna remove the stingers.
(Cara groaning loudly)
Oh, I know, I know.
(Cara breathing heavily)
You're doing so good.
(gentle piano music)
(birds chirping)
(gentle melodic music)
- Hm.
Hm.
(gentle melodic music)
- You scared the shit outta me.
- I'm sorry.
Next time, I'll take your
feelings into consideration
before I get attacked by
a poisonous sea creature.
- I would appreciate that.
I love you
and you don't have to say it back.
- Can you please just stop
talking for one minute,
so I can talk?
I fell in love with you the
second I saw you on that boat.
I lost two hands of poker
in a row thanks to you.
- Did you really?
- (laughing) Yeah.
You know, I looked at you and I thought,
if I get stranded on an island today,
that's who I wanna be stranded with.
- Okay.
- I'm serious.
I mean, I don't know what
I love more about you,
the way that you tilt your
head and arch your eyebrow,
when you don't understand something.
Or no, even better,
the way you play with your
hair when you're nervous
and there, I love the way you
look at me when you want me,
you bite your lip
and you get like this really
serious look in your eyes.
- Okay, okay, okay, okay, stop.
(both laughing)
I believe you.
(gentle orchestral music)
(birds chirping)
(gentle orchestral music)
- Okay, I'll play.
(gentle orchestral music)
You got me.
(gentle orchestral music)
- Surprise!
Happy birthday!
- [Cara] It's not my birthday.
- How do you know?
- I guess technically, it can be, so.
- Make a wish.
- Okay.
(gentle orchestral music)
(waves lapping)
I love it.
- I love you.
Oh, my God!
- What?
- We're gonna miss your
birthday dinner, oh, my God.
I've been waiting months
for this reservation!
I can't be late with the birthday girl!
- Okay, okay.
- Please, please.
- Am I dressed okay?
- [Emily] We're just gonna
have to make it work, darling.
- Make it work.
- For our first course,
we'll be having cocktails
made from our finest gin and cola.
- Ooh!
Fancy.
- And for you, madam.
- Thank you.
Mm.
- And later on, for our
main course of the evening,
we'll be having, give me
a drum roll please, ma'am.
(Cara imitating drum roll)
Fish!
- [Cara] (laughing) Surprise.
- I know, but it's birthday
fish, should be better.
- Okay.
- But first,
if you don't mind,
I like to give a little
toast to the birthday girl.
(waves lapping)
When I first arrived on
this island, I was lost.
Since being here with you,
I realized that this
life we're building here,
this is where I belong.
As long as I have you,
I will never be lost
another day in my life.
Cheers, babe.
- Cheers to that.
- Mm!
- Come here.
- "I reach for the satchel,
that hangs from the warm,
leather strap around my neck.
My hands tremble as I struggle
to remove the pellets from within.
Marco sees it and tries to stop me.
'Wait, we can't let them win.'
'They won't,' I say breathless.
We are lost in the depths
of each other's eyes
for what feels like forever.
My heart misses a beat.
'Show them, all must see,' he says.
I hold my palm in the air,
the pellet out for all to see.
I give Marco a gentle kiss on the cheek."
- Oh, shit, Emily.
(boat engine rumbling)
(waves lapping)
- Who is that?
- I don't know, come on.
It doesn't look like a rescue boat.
(boat engine rumbling)
(waves lapping)
(soft tense music)
(waves lapping)
- Hello?
Anyone there?
Sandcastles don't just build themselves!
Someone's gotta be here!
I'm here to help, I have food and water.
Oh, you're alive!
We've been looking everywhere for you.
- Who's we?
- And who the hell are you?
- I'm Finn, I'm with the rescue crew.
- From the boat?
- Yeah, I've been looking for survivors.
- Oh, my God, do you know
anything about my mom?
Her name is Lila.
- Um.
- Mid forties,
she kind of looks like
me, but she's blonde.
- Yeah, yes, Lila, she's on
the rescue ship safe and sound.
- Oh, my God.
- She was asking about you, you're?
- I'm Emily, I'm her daughter.
- Emily, right and that must make you?
- Cara, this is Cara.
- Cara, of course.
Yeah, we've been finding
survivors all over nearby islands.
Um, I think we found your
mom last week or something.
- But she's okay?
- Yeah.
- That's great news.
- Looks like you guys have
done a pretty great job.
I see you got a hut, books, a fire,
doesn't even really look
like you need rescuing.
- We don't.
- Yeah, well, this is all really great,
but it's pretty dangerous out here,
you know, just the two of you.
It is just the two of you, right or?
- Ah, it's just us.
- Like I said, we don't need rescuing.
- Yep, I see that.
Just think, warm bed, real food, Mom.
No rush anyways, there's
not enough room or gas
to get back to the rescue ship.
We'll have to wait for them here.
Gonna take them a week or two to get here.
Man, your mom's gonna
be so happy to see you.
- I can't believe she's
okay, she's okay! (laughing)
- And in the meantime?
- In the meantime, well,
mind if I make camp
over there by you guys?
It's been pretty lonely out in sea
and I could use a little company.
- Is that chocolate?
- Ah, yeah, do you?
- Yes.
(water lapping)
Oh, my God, chocolate!
This is somehow better than
I remember, oh, my God.
- I know you girls don't
really know me or anything,
so how about I make you a little dinner
and you can get to know me?
- Yeah, that's probably fine.
Do you mind just actually
giving us a minute?
- Wait, is that the chunky kind?
- Ah, yeah, it is.
- Oh!
Okay, you can set up camp over there.
- Sweet, well then, I'll go
get my stuff and get set up.
- Cool.
Do you think we should
have discussed this first?
- Everyone has their price.
Oh, I missed this stuff.
- I see your point.
Mm.
(soft orchestral music)
Oh, okay.
(soft orchestral music)
(waves lapping)
You're making me nervous.
Yes!
Nice!
- Not too bad, huh?
(hands slapping)
- Okay, I wanna do that.
- So yeah, bring that
foot in a little closer.
- My left foot?
- Yeah, look at the end
and then just a big push, ready?
One, two, three.
(Emily shrieking)
Bend your knees a little bit.
- Okay.
Cara!
Look!
(soft orchestral music)
(Cara sighing)
(fire crackling)
- It's amazing what you can
do with the right tools.
- What the hell?
There's flavor in this fish.
- Yeah, well, a little natural sea salt
and there's a bunch of
lemongrass over there,
so figured I'd use it.
Well, I'd usually use my
go-to flavor, peanut butter,
but um, someone jacked it all.
- Yeah, well, you're
never getting that back,
so it's a good thing this worked out.
- No, she's not kidding.
- Okay.
- It's like almost gone.
- So Finn, what's your story?
- My story? I told you,
work for the boat company.
- She means like who are you?
You know, where are you from?
What was your life like
before? Those kinds of things.
- Yeah.
All right, well, um.
I grew up in a small town
just outside of Cincinnati.
- No way.
O-H-I-O
(hand slapping)
(Finn laughing)
- What?
- Where are you from?
- Cleveland.
(Finn laughing)
That's really weird.
- You're an awful long way from home.
- Yeah.
I know.
My mom was an elementary school teacher,
my dad sold farm equipment.
I had two younger sisters, Rosie and Kate
and last but not least, you got me
and I was on my way to OSU
on a football scholarship,
when everything went down.
- That sucks.
I'm really sorry.
- Yeah.
Thanks.
My whole family got it,
they were all gone within like a month.
- Shit, man.
I'm sorry.
- Yeah.
Well then, um, I guess
one thing led to the other
and I wound up getting a job
with the owner of the
ship you guys were on
and that's my story.
- Thanks for sharing.
(fire crackling)
- Well, um, I'm getting pretty tired,
I need to get some shut eye,
so if you guys don't mind?
But don't worry about all the mess,
I'll clean it up in the morning.
- Oh no, we got it, it's all good.
But yeah, hit the hay.
- Thanks for this.
- All right.
Night.
- Night.
(soft melodic music)
(waves lapping)
(Cara and Emily talking indistinctly)
- If you insist.
- I do.
(soft melodic music)
(waves lapping)
- Wait, what are we gonna do?
- I'd rather kiss you.
- Ha ha, you know what I mean.
- [Emily] I don't.
(soft orchestral music)
(waves lapping)
(objects thudding)
(soft orchestral music)
(waves lapping)
- That's some cache of
supplies you got there.
- Oh, this stuff?
We'll have plenty of this and
more on board the rescue ship.
- We didn't say we were going on the ship.
- Right, well, it doesn't
matter much to me,
if you'd rather use bamboo
leaves instead of toilet paper.
- Hey, it's not as bad as it sounds.
What are you up to, you
wanna come for a swim?
There's actually some
like really cool stuff,
if you get out past the reef.
- Sure, now?
- Okay.
- Hm, nice cards.
- Nice shorts.
(soft orchestral music)
The streets we love
They're mixed with life
(water splashing)
(Cara and Emily shrieking)
- [Both] One, two,
three, four! (shrieking)
(water splashing)
I'm training for a place
you can feel the rush there
And it turned out we're invincible
Ah ah ah ah
- [Finn] All right, remember
outside ring is 10, next is 20,
you hit the bullseye, that's 50.
- Winner gets to do whatever she wants
for the rest of the day
and the other two have to like make dinner
and do all the chores that come with that.
- Hm, deal.
- Did I mention my
scholarship was for football?
- You did.
- And did I mention I was
the (coughing) quarterback?
- (coughing) Yeah, you did.
(Finn laughing)
- All right, new guy goes first.
- All right, don't say I didn't warn you.
(coconut thudding)
Ball!
Whoop!
(coconut thudding)
Ah ah ah ah
- Wow, trick shot.
- And that is 120 points for me.
- [Emily] Take it away, Cara.
Ah ah ah ah
(coconut thudding)
- Nice.
Ah ah ah ah
(coconut thudding)
- Whoo, that's my girl!
- You gotta kiss this one.
Ah ah ah ah
(Cara grunting)
(coconut thudding)
- [Emily] Nice!
Tie game.
(coconut thudding)
(Cara laughing)
(Emily grunting)
(coconut thudding)
One more.
(coconut thudding)
- And I thought I knew you.
- So if you guys need me,
I'll be down the beach
reading for the remainder of the day.
Oh and I'd like dinner just after sundown.
No, just before sundown?
Surprise me.
Sorry, what are you guys still doing here?
- Yep, nope.
- Ah.
Right away, boss.
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
- [Cara] Joking aside,
but on the bright side,
the coconuts are pretty juicy, so.
- That's good, 'cause I'm pretty thirsty.
- Oh, let me get you one.
- No!
- Grab my pole.
- I got it.
(light melodic music)
Here you go.
Whoo!
Cheers.
- That was-
- No big deal.
So is Emily always this bossy?
(Cara grunting)
(machete tapping)
- Here.
Watch.
You wanna go with the grain.
(machete tapping)
Overall, it's a great structure.
But you see right here?
- [Cara] Yeah.
- It's a bit of a weak spot.
- Yeah, it's not my best work.
- Ah, watch,
(leaves crunching)
if you layer it in opposite directions,
that way, it will cover everything.
- Huh?
- Then we can put some rocks
on top to hold it down,
you should be good to go.
- Sounds good, I'll pass these to you.
(leaves crunching)
- Um, listen, Cara,
I'm not here to show you up
and I'm not here to try
and get between you two.
I see you guys have
something really special
and I have no intentions for ruining that.
- Thank you, that's great to hear.
But you gotta know how things
look from this end, right?
- Ah, yeah, I guess.
(leaves crunching)
- Anyways, I mean, we never said
that we weren't gonna
go on the boat with you,
we just have to think
things through, you know?
- Got it.
Well hey, while we're at it,
what do you say we make a
little nook right there.
It shouldn't take long with us both.
- Sounds good, let's do it.
(leaves crunching)
No surprise, you see only
what is in your sight
And I know it's just a game you play
- This one, all right.
I'll lock you down and push you up
You hold me up the same way
- All right,
two rolls of toilet paper,
Band-aids, matches and a stick of gum.
- Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, all in.
- I'll show you mine if you show me yours.
I let you get inside of my head
- Royal flush.
- Inside straight.
Shit.
(Cara laughing)
- Why do you sound so surprised?
- Well, I guess I really shouldn't be,
considering your 24/7 resting poker face.
(Cara laughing)
- Hello?
Hi, guys, strangest thing,
I was walking back from the beach
and I think, "Boy, am I hungry."
And then I think, "Perfect timing,
'cause Finn and Cara are
making dinner, you know,
since I won the bet and all,"
then I get here and there's no smell,
you know, there's no food cooking at all.
Didn't you guys think
that's kind of weird?
- Yeah, yeah,
that was ah, my bad.
Got a little carried away
with the hut as you can see.
- Yeah, we were taking a little break
and then one thing led to the
next, but I built you a patio.
- Oh, it's beautiful.
- And I won this for you.
- (gasping) Shut up.
I love it.
- Want a swig?
- No, what?
- I am getting pretty hungry.
- Me too.
- You guys better get to it.
- Guess I won some done.
(melodic guitar music)
Still I find I'm sad
(water splashing)
(bird calling)
And I cry, will you hold my hand
Can you just hold my hand
- This is paradise.
We will make it soon
- Heaven on Earth.
- Everything we need is
right here and then some.
- I get it.
Well, you wanna stay?
- Yeah, we'll see.
It's a lot to think about.
A lot to consider.
Are you thinking of staying?
- No.
I have some things I need to do.
I'm glad I'm here
with you guys.
- Me too.
I'm still laughing now
Just think of what could be
If I was still around
The schedules were free
- So it turns out Finn's pretty cool, huh?
- Hm, jury's still out on that.
- Really?
You guys seem thick as thieves.
- I don't know, there's
just something off about him
and I just can't put my finger on it.
- [Emily] You think maybe
you just don't trust anybody?
- [Cara] Maybe you're right.
(gentle piano music)
(radio beeping)
- [Man] We'll be there in two days.
- Okay, gotta go, over and out.
- Roger that.
- Hey!
- Hey.
The rescue ship?
- Yeah, they said they're
not too far off now.
- Any word on my mom?
- Yeah, yeah, they said she's really happy
and can't wait to see you.
(gentle orchestral music)
- Do you think I could talk to her?
- Um.
I'm really sorry,
it's just protocol
doesn't actually allow it.
We're supposed to keep
communications down to a minimum,
you know, power rations and stuff.
Maybe I can get them to make an exception.
- Yeah, that, that would be amazing, yeah.
(radio hissing and beeping)
(Emily sighing)
- Sorry, that's weird.
- What?
(radio hissing)
- It doesn't seem to be
picking up the channel.
- [Emily] What do you mean?
- The signal must be
scrambled or something.
- Okay, well, um, can you reset it?
- Ah, to be honest, it might
be best to just try later.
- Yeah, I guess it just
wasn't meant to be.
- No, no, don't say that.
What were you gonna ask her anyways,
about staying here or going with her?
- I was hoping talking to
her would help me decide.
- It's a pretty tough call, huh?
- I just feel like I'm forced to choose
between my mom and Cara.
- Well,
(soft melodic music)
if Cara loves you, she'll understand.
If you ask her to go, she'll go with you.
(water splashing)
- Going for a fruit run,
breakfast, anybody interested?
- I'm in.
Do you wanna come?
- I'm gonna hang back.
Thanks though.
(water splashing)
- [Finn] So I got word
that the rescue ship
isn't too far off.
- [Cara] Oh, yeah,
is that what you and
Em were talking about?
- Yeah.
- Watch this.
I know she wants to go. (sighing)
- Ah, not exactly.
- [Cara] Could've fooled me.
- It's complicated for her.
- There's so many elements
involved and I don't even know,
I just can't stop thinking about it
and it's making me crazy.
- She loves you.
- (sighing) I know,
and I know she'll stay if I asked, right?
I mean, you think so?
- Yeah,
but it is her mother, I
mean, do you wanna stay here
and risk living the rest of your lives
with her resenting you
for choosing the island?
- No, I guess not.
- What are you doing?
- I'm coming with you
and I know this stuff isn't worth much,
but it means something to me.
- When did I say I wanted to go?
Don't you think this is something
we should decide together?
- Well, I just, I know
how conflicted you've been
and I just wanna take the stress
off your hands, it's fine.
- Cara,
I'm conflicted because the
truth is I don't wanna go
and I feel like crap because of that.
- What do you mean?
- Being here with you
has been the happiest
time of my entire life
and forget about the fact that
the world has gone to shit,
you're everything to me now.
The way you look at me,
you see me, you don't just write me off
as some damsel in distress
like everyone else does.
You know what I can do,
you push me to do it.
- Well, you just, you make it easy.
- I'm not done.
I know that when we first got here,
I spent a lot of time and
energy trying to be rescued.
But the truth is,
I was rescued the second
I washed up on that beach,
you rescued me and there's
not a single place on Earth,
that I wanna be other
than exactly right here
with you.
- I just, I don't wanna be here because-
- I know you don't wanna be the reason,
you're not the reason, I'm the reason,
I'm choosing, I just told you.
- Just know I'll come with you,
here, home, wherever, I mean,
it just, it doesn't matter,
just as long as we're together, okay?
I just don't want you to regret
not going back to your mom,
just promise me you'll
think about it, okay?
- That's the only thing I can think about.
- And by the way, I think
you were right about Finn.
- Yeah?
- I guess I'm just too used to waiting
for the other shoe to drop,
but he's just been on the up and up.
I guess my sixth sense
was just off this time.
If you trust him, I trust him.
- I do.
- Okay.
He's not here.
- Yeah, I know, I'm ready.
(Cara exhaling heavily)
Okay, ready.
- Like we practiced, okay.
- Yeah.
- Okay, one, two, three.
- [Both] Help!
Help, help!
- Ah, help!
- Can anybody help?
Oh, my God, oh, my God, this is bad!
- [Both] Surprise! (laughing)
- Oh, my fucking God, you guys
scared the shit out of me.
- Your face. (laughing)
- Sorry, that's probably kind of mean.
- Yeah.
What's all this?
- It's a going away party.
- You're not coming?
- We don't really know yet,
so maybe it's a going away party for you,
maybe it's a going away
party for all of us.
- Either way, it's a party.
- Well, in that case, I've
got a surprise for you.
- No way.
- Oh, God.
- Yep.
- I love surprises.
- I hate surprises.
- What is it?
- [Finn] You're gonna love this one, Cara!
- Oh, goodness me.
I wanna get out of my
head, out of my head
- Aw, that's a nice touch.
- Yeah, I've been holding back,
didn't wanna drain the battery,
but since the ship's
gonna be here pretty soon,
I thought why not?
- That's good.
- What do we have here? (sniffing)
Lemongrass coke.
- Wow, he's good.
- Well, it was either
that or peanut butter.
- For sure.
- Oh, you know,
can't go wrong with that.
- Here's some gin.
- Merci beaucoup.
(fire crackling)
(Cara laughing)
- No and then he,
he stomps out there and he is like,
"Hey, you babes, hang
tight in the kitchen."
- "Hang tight in the kitchen."
- "I gonna go do man stuff."
- I don't sound like that.
- Yes.
- And then he like struts into the jungle
and then all of a sudden
you hear like, "Uh!"
- No, I think it was
more like (screaming)!
- And then out he comes with
like a single fucking coconut,
it's like the saddest fucking
coconut I've ever seen.
- Single one.
- Hey,
at least I got a coconut.
- I could've done a much better job.
- Ah-huh, I'm just saying
we would've been eating
till breakfast.
- Yeah.
- This girl can get some coconuts.
- I can with my new ladder.
- I'm good.
- You know what I like about you?
- My smile?
- No, well, yes, I do like your smile,
but I'm talking about this one over here.
You know, you're a good one.
You know, so many guys
would come here and just,
just like really take advantage of us,
but not you, Finn, you're a good guy.
To Finn.
- To Finn!
- One of the good guys.
- Guys,
no way, I-
- Yes, way, cheers!
- Cheers, eyes!
- Okay.
- Yes, looking in the eyes
otherwise it's bad luck.
- Yeah.
- Here we go.
- [Emily] To Finn.
- To Finn.
I don't know about you guys,
but I'm like feeling a little bit weird.
I think I'm gonna lay down, I
think I had too much to drink.
- Okay.
- Night, guys.
- I should go help her.
- Yeah, well, yeah.
(mellow melodic music)
- Oh, my God.
- What's this?
- Did you play this on purpose?
- No.
- This is like my favorite song.
- Well, in that case, may I
have this wonderful dance?
- Oh.
- My lady?
- [Emily] Okay.
When my lover keeps at play
Play
Said hey, hey, hey
I don't wanna be a rabbit caged
What nobody can say
May
So don't let me go
'Cause I'll never feel it
Don't let me go
- I...
I think I need to call it a night.
- Of course.
- [Emily] Finn.
- Hm?
- You are one of the good ones.
Goodnight.
- Night, Emily.
Goodnight.
Oh, ah ah ah ah, oh
Oh, ah ah ah ah, oh
(Finn exhaling heavily)
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
(objects clattering)
(soft melodic music)
(waves lapping)
(soft melodic music)
(objects clattering)
(tense melodic music)
- No, no, no!
(tense melodic music)
My God, Mom!
Finn!
(tense melodic music)
- It's hard to say.
Emily won't be a problem,
she's pretty gullible.
I'm a little worried about
the feisty one though,
she could put up a fight.
- [Man] We'll take care of that,
it'll be worth it once we sell them off.
- Copy that.
Okay, dude, I should go,
see you in a few hours.
- [Man] Roger and out.
(tense melodic music)
- Whoa, Emily, you're an early riser.
- Who the hell are you?
- Let's just calm down.
- [Emily] You told me my mother was alive.
- I can explain.
- Who the hell were you just talking to?
- Em, stop, what are you doing?
- This guy who's been living with us,
who we trusted has been playing us.
You were right all along,
Cara, my mom's dead,
I found her body and a bunch
of others at the inlet.
There is no rescue ship, everybody's dead.
- Is that true?
- Let me just explain for one second.
- Please explain how you're
a fucking trafficker!
Explain how you plan on selling us!
- What the hell?
- You girls don't understand.
You're too valuable, they
will never let you go.
So let's just cut the pretense
and do what're meant to do.
(tense melodic music)
- Sorry.
Kill the bad man.
Uh!
(pole thudding)
(soft tense music)
Oh, my God!
(Finn whimpering)
(soft tense music)
(waves crashing)
- Oh, shit.
It's gotta be who Finn's being contacting.
- [Emily] We've gotta hide the body.
- Wait, I have a better idea.
(water splashing)
(soft tense music)
(radio beeping)
- [Emily] You know how to work this?
- [Woman] Sea Wolf, Sea Wolf,
this is Sea Hawk, MGDHO4.
- Okay, I got it.
- No.
- Sea Hawk, this is Sea
Wolf, request help, over.
- [Woman] Who is this, where is Finn?
- Finn, Finn is sick,
he he, he's burning up.
We all got sick, it happened really fast.
We need medical assistance immediately.
- God, this better work.
(soft tense music)
(boat engine rumbling)
(both gasping with relief)
(gentle melodic music)
(waves crashing)
(gentle melodic music)
(waves crashing)
- You okay?
- Yeah.
So what now?
- What do you mean?
We have everything we need right here.
(waves crashing)
- Heaven on Earth.
(mellow upbeat music)
Ain't nobody here to tell me
How am I to climb this mountain
Oh, stay right beside me
Watch me climb, watch
me climb, watch me
Ain't nobody here to guide me
How am I to cross this river
Oh, stay right beside me
Watch me cross, watch
me cross, watch me
Just watch me climb
Don't take off your eyes while I climb
