All language subtitles for Blue Water High s02e16

There's too much choice and not enough
time.

Aiming for your head, get down.

You're the only one in town.

One of the scary parts of growing up is
realizing how much of your personality

you get from your parents.

Like my love of surfing, for instance.

That's from my dad.

And my love of surprises?

That's from mom.

I think I got mom's sprinting ability,
too.

Luckily.

Don't think I'll forget this.

I'm pretty sure my taste for cheese and
Vegemite comes from my dad.

And my addiction to horoscopes?

Definitely from mum.

Oh, horoscopes. You know, someone just
makes them all up. So what?

They're fun.

Ready? Here's one.

This week, someone unexpected will turn
your life upside down.

It could mean anything.

Let's just wait and see.

Okay, what's your star sign?

Libra. Libra.

Libra, that means your birthday soon.

Does it?

Come on, Eric.

When's your birthday?

The 12th.

This Saturday?

How come you didn't say anything?

Oh, because my birthdays always end up a
total disaster.

Don't be silly. I'm serious. For
instance, last birthday, mum threw me

party, right? Broke her leg halfway
through.

Another one. I got this brand new board.

Snapped in half first wave.

Eric, stop.

And they were the good ones, so I think
it's just safer to ignore it.

Ignore your own birthday. You can't do
that.

Hello?

Hey, Mum.

You're kidding.

You're coming down?

That's great.

When?

Now?

Surprise!

I didn't believe that.

Why didn't you say anything?

Oh, it was your mother's idea. You know
how she loves surprises, just like you.

Oh, no, he said we should check, but I
knew it wouldn't be a problem.

Well, it isn't a problem, is it? No, no,
of course not.

Hey, nice board.

Thanks. Looks like a Rick Stevens
design, but there's more to it.

Sounds like you know your boards.

He's obsessed.

Shaped blankly in blue.

It's awesome, mate.

Mind if I ask where you got it?

It's one of my own designs, actually.

You made it?

Yeah, got a little business going. Just
making custom boards, you know.

Are they all as good as this?

Any chance we could see any more of
them? No.

Got a few back at the workshop if you
guys want to look.

You bet. Oh, yeah.

Can we see these, Rachel?

Hey, Brooke.

Hi. Anne, fly. Oh, well, Fiona.

Fly's fine. Nice to meet you. You too.

It's great to finally put faces to the
name.

Uh, Linda, what do you want me to do
with this? Oh, Jilly, we brought a few

treats to the house.

A few?

Looks like enough to feed a small
country.

Mum, you didn't have to do that. Oh,
look, thank you, Linda. The way these

eat, all contributions are welcome.

Now, look, I know how busy you must be,
but we'd love to take you out.

Maybe tomorrow after training?

I guess we could forget training one
afternoon.

Not every day your parents fly in. The
afternoon of training, you lucky dog.

Oh, maybe Eric could come too. Yeah?

Jimmo, would that be okay?

Just this once.

Now, would you two like the grand tour?

We'd love it.

Walk this way.

They seem really nice.

Yeah, they can be.

Tiniest bit overwhelming.

These boards are amazing, Ben.

And you do these all yourself?

Yeah, it's the only way to go.

It means you can make sure every board's
perfect.

I can't believe I haven't heard your
name before.

Yeah, it takes me a while to finish one,
so there aren't that many around.

But I mean, the customers keep coming
back.

This one's still my favourite, though.

Lines.

Magic. Why don't you borrow it, if you
like?

You serious?

You know I can't afford to pay for it.
Yeah, look, just bring it back in one

piece, alright?

And remember... I know where you live.

What? It's Eric's birthday this
Saturday.

Yeah, I think he's in the quiet.

That's unusual for Eric.

He has this weird idea that his birthday
is a jinx. A jinx? What century is he

living in?

Anyway, I thought we could throw him a
surprise party.

Great. And take him out for a birthday
show fast food? Sounds good. What's the

plan? Look out.

Birthday boy at 50 o 'clock. What's
going on, guys?

Nothing. Ooh, someone's dog died or
something.

Isn't that your parents?

That's them.

Come on, Ames. You don't want to leave
the limo waiting. Have fun at training,

guys.

Hi, Amy.

G'day, mate. Hello, you two.

Just so you know, Linda's got a major
shopping trip planned.

I'm not sure I'll be able to sit up.

Mum, he'll be bored to death. He'll be
fine. We'll take you both out for pizza

afterwards. You'll get a chance to get
to know him.

How's the board? Awesome. Take for a
spin.

No, pity Ben can't make more of these.
Make a fortune.

Exactly what I've been thinking.

This place is local, and they've got a
computerised shaping machine.

They can mass produce those boards in no
time flat.

So you think if you get these guys
together with Ben and his designs... The

sky's the limit with the right
marketing.

Reality check.

You're not a business tycoon.

You're still in school, remember?

Hey, even Bill Gates had to start
somewhere.

Anyway, I organised to have a meeting
with him.

What does Ben think about that?

Nothing. Yet.

Don't you think you should ask him? I
mean, his boards. I will. I just want to

do my research.

There's no point talking to him until
I've got all my facts, is there?

You'll amaze me, Mum.

You can still shop till you drop. Oh,
well. It's in the jeans.

Does anyone want a cold drink?

Sounds great.

Did you see the prices in some of those
shops? I was waiting for someone to look

at me and yell, security!

That's Mum.

Top of the range.

I'd have to work full -time for a month
to afford half that stuff.

So what do you think? The orange or the
green?

I really didn't need both of them, Mum.

Well, there's no sense in leaving them
on the rack.

Well, I fight it.

Exactly. Come on, Amy.

Let's give the boys a fashion break.

It's good to see Amy and her mum
together.

You've got no idea how much Linda's been
looking forward to this. I bet.

We're pleased that Amy got into Polar
Blue, but we can't help missing it.

Hey, kid, look what you did.

Wow,

holy cow.

That machine is amazing.

Feed in the data and it spits out a
board.

How many can it make?

20 a day, no sweat. 20 a day?

Ask them to make a copy of Ben's board,
just as a demo.

They'll do that. As long as I pay costs
and do all the measurements myself.

So, what about the partnership I did?

Well, they said they'd consider it. I'll
have to do up a proper business

proposal. And then, that's my next step.

Consider it now.

Corey Petrie, businessman of the year.

It's all about the deal.

So you reckon Ben will go for it? He'd
be mad not to, no?

We'll be locked all the way to the bank.

You're going to have to build a new
wardrobe to fit all this stuff in.

Once Mum gets shopping, there's no
stopping her.

Sorry she likes to spend money on her
only daughter. That's fair enough.

I know.

Just my whole life, my parents have
always done everything for me.

Doesn't sound so bad.

It isn't. It's just sometimes it's good
to do things yourself, you know.

Since I've been here, it's been great.

Haven't had everything handed to me on a
plate.

Then maybe you should talk to your
folks.

Ask them to ease off a bit.

I couldn't.

They'd just get offended.

All right, then I suppose you could ask
them to spend all their money on me

instead. That's a problem solved.

Corey, Simmo's looking for you.

Training, remember?

I know. I'll be there in a sec.

Hey, Mike.

You got a minute?

Big cheesy smile.

What's going on?

Simmo sent me to find you two.

Why? Just to our needs. Someone with
surfing cred and sex appeal. What are

talking about?

I just need a couple of photos to glam
up my business plan. If I only take 30

seconds, tops.

Beautiful. One more.

Fly, what is this?

Sorry, he said it'd take 30 seconds.

It's not their fault, Simo. I can
explain. Don't bother.

Training. Now. All of you.

Well, that's ordered.

I'll make the cake and do the food. Yep,
Rach and I will do the decorations.

I'll organise the drink. And I'll keep
Eric occupied for the morning.

Where is he now?

I told him I needed him out of the way,
so he gave him an extra training run.

Some friends you turned out to be.

Hello? Anybody home?

Mum? In here.

Oh, I hope I'm not interrupting
anything.

No, we just finished.

What's up? We are still taking you out
for dinner, aren't we?

Oh, yeah.

Sorry. See ya.

See ya. Bye -bye. See ya.

So what was that little meeting about?

Eric's birthday month, so I organised a
surprise party. Good on you. I love

surprise parties.

Well, since we're here, we could help.

Thanks, but I really don't need to.

Oh, no, it'd be no trouble.

What about that function room at the
hotel, Ray? That'd be perfect.

Good idea.

I'll see you at the book.

No doubt it. That's okay.

Um, just a small thing. I can manage.

I'm sorry.

Just trying to help.

I know, Beth.

This is something I'd like to do on my
own.

Well, would it be all right if I brought
Erica presents?

Yeah, that'd be great.

You'd like that.

It's two in the morning.

I'm just finishing my business plan.
Check it out.

Great. It's very professional.

Tomorrow morning, I pick up a copy of
the board, and then I take the whole lot

down to show Ben.

Corey. Yeah.

Is this radical new concept sweeping the
world at the moment? I don't know if

you've heard of it.

What's it called? Sleep.

You should try it sometime.

Here we come.

No one say anything about his birthday.

Morning, all.

Morning. Hey, Eric.

Hartley's is going off. You want to
catch a bus down?

Yeah, sweet. I'll just get something.
Sure, go on.

Try to keep him out till midday, all
right?

Sure.

See you, boys.

Have a good time.

See you, love.

Hello? Mum, I wasn't expecting you.
We're here to pick you up. Come on,

jump in.

Yeah, where are we going?

Can't say. It's a surprise.

Amy, you're coming too.

Mum, I can't.

I've got things to do.

It's okay.

You take him out.

We'll get everything ready back here.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Go ahead, Eric.

We'll do Hartley's later.

Cool? Well, I'll just dump my board.

Mum, what's all this about? Told you,
it's a surprise.

First of all, happy birthday, Eric.

Yeah, happy birthday, Eric. Thanks,
guys.

You told them?

Sorry, must have flipped out.

And here's your present, Eric.

You got me a seaplane.

Not quite. Sorry to disappoint you.

No, no, that's all right. Mum bought me
one last year anyway.

Oh. No, we thought you might like to go
for a flight.

A flight? Yeah, yeah, excellent.

Mum,

how long is this going to take? I've got
to be back by lunch.

Don't worry, you'll be home in plenty of
time.

Come on.

Hey, Ben.

Ben.

Oh, g'day.

Hey, you brought the board back. Yeah.

Notice anything different?

Hang on.

This isn't my board.

Yours is in here.

This is an identical copy made with a
computer shaper.

A copy?

Why would I want a copy?

Because that's how you take your
business to the next level.

What are you talking about?

It's all in here.

This is your ticket to the big time.

So have a read.

Give me a call.

Well, that was brilliant. Thank you so
much, guys.

It's our pleasure, Eric.

Mum, what are we doing all the way out
here?

Well, we thought we'd take you for
morning tea. Over there.

Well, this just keeps getting better and
better. For once, my birthday's a total

disaster. Not yet, maybe.

Where are they? I thought they would
have called us by now.

I'll give their mobile a try.

Amy's fine.

She left it behind.

So, how do we know when the guest owner
will be here?

Well, I suppose we just get everything
ready and keep an eye out.

I have a bad feeling about this.

Well, that was the best birthday I've
ever eaten.

I'm glad you enjoyed it, Eric.

Um, it paid to be a pain, but we get
going.

Of course.

Come on, Linda.

Sorry, guys. It'll be a short delay. The
speed plane is having a few mechanical

problems. Are you kidding?

Oh, don't worry. The pilot, he's fixing
it now.

How long will it take?

You couldn't say. Maybe ten minutes,
maybe more.

More? One hour, two hours?

I don't know. Sorry.

Oh, no.

We've really got to get back. Is there
another way? I can call a taxi, but it's

over an hour by road.

Does anyone want to tell me what the big
hurry is?

Nothing.

I've just got to do some stuff.

Homework.

Amy, this is the ultimate excuse not to
do homework.

Why fight it?

I'll be back in a tick.

Bye.

Excuse me.

Is there a phone I could use?

Certainly. There's one inside.

Yeah, I'll tell them.

Well?

They're halfway to Timbuktu and the
seaplane's broken down.

The seaplane?

Don't ask.

But when are they going to show? Who
knows? She said it might be ten minutes

two hours. We just have to wait.

OK,

who's up for a surf?

Corey, we can't. They could be here any
minute. Well, Eric's birthday's really

our jinx.

Not his luck. He won't be home till
tonight.

Anyway, who wants to come?

You know where to find me.

Just give me a minute.

Hello?

Hello?

Where is everybody?

Ames, what's going on?

It's all this stuff.

Surprise. Surprise party for me.

That was the idea, but it was supposed
to be home ages ago.

It all makes sense now. I am so sorry,
Amy.

It's not your fault.

It's no one's fault.

Amy, are you okay?

Yeah, I'll be fine. I'm just going to go
lay down.

Happy birthday, by the way.

Hey, guys.

Eric. Why have we got here?

Yeah, Amy's parents organised this big
birthday surprise.

What? You mean it's your birthday? I
think we're past that, mate. But I was

wondering if you guys were still up for
a party. Eric, when have we ever not

been up for a party?

Not feeling any better?

A bit.

Look, Ames, even if the whole surprise
thing didn't happen, it was really nice

of you to try.

That's okay.

And besides, if there's anyone to blame
for this whole mix -up thing, it's me.

You?

I told you my birthdays are always a
catastrophe.

Don't be silly. I did, didn't I? And
I've decided I'm not going to have any

birthdays. They're banned.

I'm just going to stay the same age for
the rest of my life.

What do you say we go downstairs and
have a little non -birthday of our own,

Just us.

Not my birthday, his.

Yeah, but I thought you needed to party
more than I did.

Happy birthday, Eric.

Happy birthday, Eric. Thank you, guys.

One, two, three, four, five.

Come on, make a wish.

Hello?

Ben.

Sure, I'll be right there.

Looks like you put a lot of work into
this.

Sales campaign, marketing strategy.

It's pretty impressive.

Thanks. So we're partners then?

No. Look, I'm sorry.

No.

Why not?

Look, I must admit, I was tempted for a
moment.

Only a moment?

Yeah, I realised it would turn me into a
businessman and not a board shaper.

You'd still be designing boards. You
just wouldn't be so hands -on. Yeah,

exactly.

And being hands -on is what I'm all
about.

That's what I love.

Have you seen the projected profits?
Like, you could make a lot of money.

Money. What for?

Nice house, holidays, free time. Yeah,
I've already got all that here.

A bigger house then. Look, I'm sorry,
Corey, but I like my life just the way

is. I think you're making a big mistake.

Look, it may be, but it's a mistake I
can live with.

Okay, well, I guess that's it then.

See ya.

Hey, hang on.

You better take this with ya.

Is that the copy? Yeah. Added a few
extra artworks for you.

Thought you might like a souvenir.

Thanks.

Dad!

You know you're invited too?

Yeah. Yeah, just thought I'd get some
fresh air.

Where's Mum?

Well, that didn't turn out exactly like
I planned.

Turns out I came in the end.

Eric got his party.

No thanks to me.

I know you're only trying to help.

But I had everything organised the way I
wanted it to be.

And along comes Mum thinking, bigger has
got to be better.

It's pretty hard to top a seaplane.

Sorry, Amy.

We meant well.

I know.

Don't get me wrong.

I love having you around, but there's
some things I have to do on my own.

You understand, don't you?

You growing up?

I've got to move on. I've got a party to
get to.

You want a drink, darling?

What happened with your plans about
global business domination?

Let's just say they've been put on hold
temporarily.

So what was the problem?

I had this big picture all worked out in
my head.

But then the little details got in the
way. Details?

You mean other people?

I just don't understand why everyone
doesn't think the same as me.

It'd make life so much easier.

Well, the party's still going.

That is, if you can spare some time
between your business deals.

I think I can squeeze it in.

Want a penner?

Now, be honest.

Which did you prefer more?

My little party or my parents' seaplane
splurge?

Um, right now I'd say they're about
even.

Even?

Are you sure?

Yeah.

But I suppose there's something you
could do to swing it in your favour.

How about now?

No, now the seaplane's definitely out in
front of them. What? Eric, you are so

dead.

Oi.

Okay, I know a lot of my personality
comes from my parents.

But that isn't so bad.

Lucky for me, they both love to party.

You're the only one.
