We got an invitation.

Hey.

You won't want to go.

Who says?

It's our 20th reunion.

Last of 72.

I don't want to go.

Aren't you overdoing it on that thing the doctor told you to take it easy?

What does an overpaid cardiologist know about my heart?

They called for a quote a month ago.

Well, faces in places.

The Nervelles, Morgan, Pacific High State diving champ.

Top honor student taking a break to embark on an exotic voyage of the

Mediterranean by sail.

I wanna go.

Will you come with me?

Why?

I wanna see where we started.

You didn't tell me this was a coconut.

I didn't know.

We came here so you could ask me to dance.

I've lived too long.

We'll make up for it.

All right.

7 ,000 square foot condo in La Jolla, 72 foot yacht, and he lost everything.

What, the bank closed on him?

Divorced. She took it all.

I want you to meet someone.

Gil, Ronnie, this is my husband, Morgan.

Hello, Morgan.

You're a great dancer.

Thanks. My shoes, they're a little too tight.

Gil Freeland, nice to meet you.

Same here.

You don't remember me, do you?

No, I don't think so.

Check this out.

Jump bag.

Kiss myself.

Bill was part of the wild crowd. He used to do that when I walked by him in the

parking lot.

You and I never actually met.

I'm just glad you guys overdressed.

Now there's four of us.

You know, a lot of these people, the best part of their lives is in high

And it's been downhill from there.

Some do better than others.

Hey, don't get me wrong. I just got lucky.

I met this one.

He's being modest. He had a very successful dental practice. Yeah, right.

just sold it.

It was time. We really needed our freedom.

And you can't lose sight of your dream.

I'll drink to that.

If I remember, you were going to be a writer.

I am a writer.

Are you famous yet?

Well, I'm well known in certain bargain bins.

Nobody's interested in reading fiction anymore.

I am. She's a fabulous writer.

She has a novel in progress. It's going to blow people away.

Well, she married the right guy.

Ronnie, in high school, Morgan was champion of everything.

Swimming and diving.

What do you do now, Morgan?

I draw lines. I'm an architect.

Good for you.

So how exciting.

You're in your trip.

Did you tell him about it? No, I didn't.

It's all right here in the Pacific High Newsletter.

I gotta be honest with you, I was not real keen about coming to a high school

reunion. He's a real drip sometimes.

I have to drag him by.

And then I saw this line about your voyage on the Mediterranean, et cetera,

cetera, et cetera. And I said, you're wrong. I said, we gotta go talk to these

people.

That's how we came, really.

So, uh, will you be in the south of France?

We're leaving for Monaco next week.

On Wednesday.

We bought a 60 -foot cat.

Dr. Monte Carlo.

We'll sail it to Malta, and then we'll live on it. For a year.

Wow. We bought some property there a couple years ago.

It's got an old hotel on it. An old ruin.

An old ruin.

Morgan's going to rebuild it.

And Kit is in charge of the interior.

How incredibly romantic.

Why don't we have a hotel in the Mediterranean, Gil? I don't know, baby.

Someday I want to ride in that boat of yours. You got it.

We were ready for an adventure.

I bet you'll find it.

Well, we've been talking about doing some traveling ourselves.

Who knows?

We may look you up in Malta. Oh, please, do.

Yeah, that'll be nice.

How'd you like the feeling?

Good night.

How'd you?

I liked it.

She was very young.

Mm, very.

You think he's attractive, don't you?

I think he is.

Why do we always answer questions with questions?

How do you mean?

I'll be crazy.

Walking away from everything.

Trying to start all over again.

We're going to make it.

We have to begin again.

If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't even be around.

It's 20 years.

This went by like a couple of hotcakes.

I am never going to let you go.

Morgan, I still love you.

I want this to work.

I want us to find what we've lost.

Gil? In the flesh.

I knew we'd see you again.

That's great. You made it.

Hell, yes.

How are you? You are so wet, man.

How'd you get away? Ah, we just disappeared. Poop.

Oh, beauty, man.

Yeah. Wow.

She's a real classic.

They built blue water, I bet, huh?

You know about boats? I don't know jack about them, but they always loved the

idea.

Why don't you come out for a day sale?

Man, don't tempt me. You guys got to get ready to go.

Well, she's ready.

We'll take her out anyway.

Give her a shakedown.

You'll be thrilled, Morgan.

Thrilled.

Look at us, honey.

We are sailing.

They're sailing.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Want to try her out?

Am I dragging it?

Go hard on it. Okay.

Come on.

Keep running this part.

Don't worry about the sails. We'll keep an eye on them.

Keep it lined up here? Yeah. Yeah.

This guy's showing me up.

Here's to our new friends. You guys are great.

And you are a natural -born sailor. And you get lucky a lot.

Listen, Morgan, if you're the one that's lucky, I would give anything.

Well, not my wife, but... I'd give anything if I were going on this

with you. Don't believe me, but you'll give me.

So, the journey begins.

What's your itinerary?

We go down the coast of Italy.

Sicily. We restock in Syracuse.

Never off to Malta.

Where's that put you the first night?

We'll find an anchorage in Piombino.

Excuse me.

Avivu Telephone.

Oui, monsieur.

Yeah, this is our location.

Oh, honey, I'll be back in a minute.

Gil's got these investment partners in Sicily, and they're trying to rope him

on this development team. Oh, good. There's still some areas in the world

need cement.

What about your designs? Don't they ever turn into cement?

Sometimes they turn into something worse.

It's a full -time job, isn't it, Catherine?

Actually, it's no work at all. Don't you believe me?

I think our vacation just ended.

I have to go to Palermo.

I'm sorry, baby. They want me to make a proposal.

What am I supposed to do here by myself?

I just wanted a few days with you.

Well, you could fly over with me, honey. Get back on a plane after 16 hours in

transit? No, thank you, Bill.

Morgan, Syracuse is near Palermo, right?

It's on the same island.

I hope we don't run into the Mistral.

You know, it can blow from a dead calm to a gale without any warning.

It's not likely.

It should be a smooth three -day ride.

Well, listen, what if we went down on the boat with you?

Claremor can hang three days.

And we get in, we grab a train, Ronnie gets her vacation.

Would you like that, baby?

Gil, you just invited yourself on that boat.

I'm afraid you'd find it very uncomfortable.

It's extremely cramped quarters.

We wouldn't disrupt your trip. I mean, if you prefer, we didn't go. Oh, well,

no, I didn't mean it like that. Somebody saved my marriage.

Let's just do it.

Your honor.

You're much too gracious for your own good.

No problem at all. I'll pay for everything on the way down. Food, fuel,

the works.

Travel jittered.

It'll work out.

It'll be nice. We'll have an extra hand.

You're very generous with our time.

If they were in a bind, it's only going to be a couple of days.

Not what we planned.

Plans could shift.

When we get to Malta, you can have everything you want.

And what exactly is it I want?

You want me to turn a ruin into something people write home about.

You want Italian tiles.

You want a courtyard with a fig tree.

You want a rose garden.

I want a fountain.

Come aboard.

We're here to make you miserable.

I see you brought your strong box.

And it floats.

He's a chronic overbuyer.

Hi.

Hey.

Hiya, kid. Hi.

Here, hand me a thing.

Here you go, baby.

Oh, yeah.

Thanks.

She's sleeping in the forward berth.

Here come the libations.

What are we going to do with all this? We're going to drink it, Morgan.

We're making great time.

She won't be here long.

She handles like a dream.

I heard they made themselves

at home.

I know everybody thought that, but it must be true. Want a drink? Better not.

I might get it wrong.

Don't be such a stick.

They're talking over old high school days in there.

I was a decent Catholic girl, so I kind of missed out on some of the

extracurricular activities.

But Lord, when I was saying marriage, I got to it with a vengeance.

I don't quite know how to respond there, Ronnie.

I came from a Protestant background.

Drive 100.

Quiet wind.

A strong, silent type, I declare.

Tell me about architecture.

Kind of a broad subject.

Tell me about drawing lines.

You just lay them out with a pen.

Lines aren't that exciting.

Want to try her out?

Well, that's what you said to Gil.

Want to try her out?

The boat?

I'm being quoted a lot. Are you hiding a tape recorder?

Now, where would I hide a tape recorder, Morgan?

I thought it was nice.

That you believe in friends sharing things.

I better qualify that.

Almost crossed one of your lines, Morgan.

Not just strong and silent, but a man of moral character.

You like to play with people, don't you?

Are you outraged?

Anyone who throws their legs around as well as you do is no outrage.

I admire a woman who sings with her thighs.

It's kind of refreshing.

You're awfully upright, aren't you, Morgan?

Maybe upright this very moment.

You're younger than I thought you were, Ronnie.

Yeah, well, you're older, like over the hill.

So tell me, from a sideline point of view, if you came to a contest between

youth and age, who would you put your money on?

Almost. Try again, try again, try again.

It's like a little boy sometimes.

Pain zone and everything.

I spoil it.

Oh, good one, good one. Where's my liner?

I'm going to get you some ice.

Put it under your burn and chill it out.

It's going to melt, Morgan.

Your eyes are all going to melt.

Damn. Scared the hell out of me.

I dropped my champagne.

Duh.

I'll wake you up.

I heard some noise.

Yeah, well, I couldn't sleep. It's damn hot, so I came up here to get some air.

I dropped my champagne.

It's too bad.

Expensive stuff.

Ah, what the hell. I'll get more.

Well, you might want to take it easy.

The sun isn't kind to a hangover.

That's good advice, Skipper.

I'll see James tomorrow.

You keeping everybody up, honey?

Your cap was loose last night. Did you tighten it before we left?

How do I tighten it?

Maybe I forgot.

Why?

I think we made a big mistake with these people.

Eight o 'clock in the morning and they're drinking.

I'm even less happy than you with the arrangement.

But I thought we decided to make the best of it.

You're doing a great job.

What's that supposed to mean?

Your evening with Gelf. The old high school days.

You seem to be hitting it off real well.

If I remember right, you spent half the night on the deck with his wife, who had

very little on, much to your enthusiasm.

I don't have a past with her.

Is that what you think I have?

and surprise me.

One day out and you're already letting the meat into us.

Now, I understand what this is about. What does this mean?

Well, this is really the same computer, Robert.

This is not the same thing.

Hey, Jason, and I'll tell you.

It's a blinding thing to fly over here, and it gets at the speed and the

direction. Another sailing lesson?

I didn't offer it. Hey, Morg, no big deal. No big deal.

I'm going to be hitting a little weather. Why don't you go down below?

I'll take the helm.

Are you sure about the weather, Morgan? I don't see anything.

She's really sick. Oh, man.

Kid,

give me that case.

Oh, no.

Here.

Okay. Hang on, baby.

Hang on, baby.

Hang on, baby. The girl's got something for you.

Come on.

It's a nice thing. Here we go.

What is that?

as you want.

She gets motion sick.

I'll help you clean her up.

Morgan, what do you think you saw today?

It was nothing.

Fine.

Something happened down below during the squall.

He gave her an injection of something with a hypodermic.

And I saw inside that briefcase of his.

What was in it?

Some kinds of...

Dental instruments and teeth.

Well, we're all sorted out now. She just needs a little walk.

I'm really embarrassed.

Ah, don't worry about it, baby.

You ain't a sailor, you don't get seasick. Write more.

That's right, Gil.

There you go.

God, that smells good. We haven't had all day.

Yeah, eat it. Whatever, baby.

Is this fine or what?

An empty beat, meat on a grill and two... Go on, just one.

Well, I guess it's a little secret now, baby.

What secret is that?

Didn't Kid tell you?

With the bridge work.

Ronnie and I... wear bridge work.

Harry's there.

Makes sense.

Well, I did him so good the first time, I figured I had to do it a second.

You did him so well.

Stop correcting me.

But can you tell him how I got into it, baby?

Well, my father said that a man of modest means was never going to marry

daughter, so...

He told Gil, apply yourself, boy.

Gil applied himself, got his DDS.

And we got Daddy's empire.

After Daddy retired.

I bet he's relaxing his big old antique dental chair right now.

You know that business cleared two mil a year?

Clear.

He got some spending money.

Ah, Tooth Fairy's been very good to me, Mort. That meat's gonna burn.

I hope you like it well done.

We like it black.

A tear to the bone.

You were up all night, weren't you?

Kind of.

The transformation is complete.

The gargoyle phase begins.

I don't like what this is becoming.

We didn't share a cruise tonight. We're losing air.

Come on!

on the baby Titanic.

Yes.

Row, row, row. You're both gently downstream.

Merrily, merrily. Hey, reporting for duty, Skipper.

Nothing like a little beer in the morning, Gil. You got that right,

the sun in your blood. You know, my mother, Lou, kept her refrigerator full

these long -necked beers. And one morning, she's coming through the

door, swinging doors. That's a little too early for that story, Gil. I know

honey. And she's coming through the kitchen door, and she falls down face

and puts that bottle right smack.

To her eyeball.

Terrible. It wasn't so terrible. It killed her stone dead.

You want to get into the dinghy?

Yeah, come on, honey.

Self is off.

Hold me, hold me.

Hey, Morgan, I got an idea. How about we let the girls motor out and you and I

swim? I mean, you were a swimmer in high school, right?

Yes, Gil, I was a swimmer. Well, then.

Well, what?

Well, let's have us a... Bam!

Let us have a sprint.

Unless you got a shape.

You don't look out of shape.

No. I'd say it's 300 feet in the boat. What do you think?

You'd lose.

Try me, partner.

Don't be ridiculous.

Gil wants to swim.

Gil and Morgan want to swim.

Yee -haw!

Morgan, you can't do this.

Come on.

I'll be fine. Wait on the boat for me.

Here you go, honey.

I tell you, champ, I love the competition.

You're not sick or anything, Morgan. You don't have any problems, do you?

like whipping someone's sick butt.

Oh, boy, look at that.

Wait until it's past.

Wrong, Moore.

Just plain wrong.

It's never had any lessons, you know.

Well, my advantage.

You were storming, Gil.

That was stupid.

Don't look at me like that.

You'll give me another heart attack.

Honey, don't do that.

I'll get you next time.

Can I help?

No, thanks.

Everything's under control.

Listen, I want to apologize for Gil. He's like a child.

Morgan took the bait.

I feel so helpless sometimes.

He's had a heart attack. He knows he can't push himself like that anymore.

I didn't know that.

That must have been terrible for both of you.

It was.

But in some ways, brought us closer together than we've been in years.

You were high school sweethearts?

Yes.

Was that before or after your thing with Gil?

What thing?

You did sleep with him, didn't you?

Prince Gil told you that?

Gil tells me everything.

Morgan, on the other hand, doesn't have a clue, does he?

I doubt he'd care one way or another. It was 20 years ago.

I'm just saying, dear, that it's hard for a man like Morgan to accept that his

wife has shared herself with another man.

And Gil is such a man's worst nightmare.

He's handsome, youthful, crude even.

You're holding up well, considering.

Considering what?

Your age. What are you?

37?

38? What are you driving at?

Nothing.

I was just paying you a compliment.

Gil thinks you're still quite attractive.

So do I.

It's just a shame you're so tight.

Well, I think it's a shame you two drink so much you're in a constant stupor.

Come on.

Look, I guess I'm not very good at this.

I really just want to be friends.

I don't mean to be unfriendly, but I've had a lot on my mind.

Oh, my God.

Your shoulders are like rocks.

Oh, what have you done to yourself? You're full of knots.

Relax.

That's right. Relax.

Breathe in.

Let it go. Let it go.

see her face.

I don't know what game you two are playing at, but it ends right here.

You stay away from me and you stay away from my husband.

Hey, flying fish, Morg.

Of course.

This puppy's flying days are over.

You can't eat that one. Why don't you cut it loose?

Oh.

I'd love... Huh?

Done my day anyhow, putting... Spit it out.

Wings on a fish.

You know what, Gil?

Huh?

You turn out to be a real psychopath.

Well, hey, Moore.

I'm really sorry I didn't measure up.

Can't wait to pour you out of this boat.

When it pours, it rains.

He even got that backwards.

I'll beat you backwards.

I'll turn your head around backwards.

You come at me, I'll use whatever it takes to lay you out.

Tremble and shake.

Tremble and shake.

Stop it!

You and your wife have done enough.

We want you out of our lives.

There was a time in our lives, Kit, when you were wide open to me.

Gil, baby.

It's not time.

Not time.

I'm going to tell you something.

You came this close.

First place, this boat will fit. You're off.

It can't come soon enough.

Your wife is certainly attractive when she's angry.

Come on, kid. You've been such a gracious host.

We'll get together again real soon.

Take me down, baby. Gil wants a nap.

Gil wants a nap.

Morgan, let's get this over with and we'll talk.

Well, this is it, baby.

What's that they say? Pitching guests stink after three days?

That sure smells funky.

Like a ramen rut, honey. I like it.

Hey, Morgan.

What kind of jerkwater place is this?

Your kind of place, Gil.

Big and tacky. You'll be right at home.

I'm always at home, Morgan.

You just gotta knock real loud.

Ha ha ha ha you son of a bitch Off

to charm the Sicilians

You all right?

We go across tomorrow. Why don't we sort this out before we get on the boat?

Tell me straight out what's on your mind.

I'm going to tell it straight.

Why don't you start?

Thank you.

What do you want me to say?

I'm talking to you.

I think.

Oh, God, I don't believe it.

You just can't bring him up, Gil.

We missed you

guys. Oh, my feet are killing me.

Introduce everyone, baby.

This is Maria.

Okay?

Maria's our tour guide here in Syracuse. Mm -hmm.

Don't you just die for news like this? Mm -hmm.

Hi. Go on, honey, tell him.

It's like this, partner.

I just plain lost my head.

On the boat down.

And this.

It's my way of apologizing.

Keep it low.

We're not buying the act.

You're not invited.

You're hurting my feelings.

All right, Morgan.

The money was class. I admit it.

Here you go, baby.

I'm not even the same league as a guy like you.

Let him at least buy you a drink.

Senor! Cinque whiskey! Dopey!

Bet you could use a double shot right about now, huh?

Will you listen to me, son of a bitch?

I'm sorry, honey.

But remember, you're the gentleman.

Tried our darnedest.

Hey, sweetie.

Time to go.

Wake up, girl!

Watch this.

What the hell are you doing? Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Just a trick, Moore.

Just a trick.

Yeah.

I could do that all night long and she'd never flinch.

It's the morphine.

You're insane, both of you. Kid.

You're headed for an Italian jail.

Just kidding.

Yeah, we'll come by the boat bright and early. Take you guys to our favorite

place for some ham and steak.

Yeah.

Last night's gonna be a hard act to follow.

Local hooker.

Vlogs, knife tricks, recreation, Freeland style.

6 a .m. I'm exhausted. Why are we letting them push us out of here?

You want more of the same today?

It's time we run a check on Gil Freeland.

I'll be on the radio.

you as citizens.

No wind at all.

That's why they call it a doldrums.

Why don't we just start the engines? I don't like sitting here.

Because we'd blow our fuel, that's why.

You're in an even fouler mood now than you were before, if that's possible.

It's 98 degrees.

We're stalled flat.

We're not moving.

If we ever had any luck, it's gone now.

Why don't we just get it out, one way or another? Let's finish it.

Just say it.

Say where we're both pretending I don't know.

Will that put an end to it?

Try me.

I slept with Gil Freeland in high school.

How could you at any point in your life let this man touch you?

It didn't end it, did it?

Was it in the high school parking lot? Stop it. In the back seat of his car?

Stop it! Was it short and brutal?

Yes, it was in the high school parking lot, in the back of his car, and yes, it

was short and brutal.

What do you want me to say, Morgan?

I just don't understand why you didn't tell me.

When could I have told you?

After the reunion, I never thought we'd see these people again.

What would have been the point?

I would have never invited these people on board of my ship.

I'm working on my marriage here.

Your marriage?

Who do you think has held this marriage together the last 18 years?

Oh, come on. Your marriage, your life, your work. You've never had time for

anyone or anything.

I built you a house.

We have no children.

We have no friends.

Our life, our marriage is a shambles. I gave you everything you wanted. Like

this stupid hotel we keep saying we're going to build.

We can't build anything together.

You're just fooling yourself.

We wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for your goddamn heart attack.

Why didn't you leave me?

You left me.

A long time ago, you just never moved out.

and we're glad we caught up with you.

We need your help, Morgan.

Get back on that skiff.

We can't do that, Morgan.

We got big trouble.

Our lives are in jeopardy, Morgan.

The lady we were with last night?

I wish we had a terrible accident. It wasn't our fault, Morgan, but try to

them the fact is as chill as that.

I'm not going to argue with you.

Get back on your skiff.

Catherine, we have to go to the island. It's life or death.

Kids, get my flare gun.

If you're not off this boat, when she comes back, I'm going to fire into you.

For God's sakes, Morgan.

Morgan, you turn us away. We are fish bait.

Kids!

Okay.

Sorry, Mort.

But you leave me no choice.

That's not a good idea, Freeland.

Why is that so, Mort?

If you like that, you're going on a Viking funeral.

You'd cut me loose on a bunny's gift, Mort, would you?

Can't hook me, Morgan.

Squeeze ball champ.

Ah, what a grip, huh?

Damn you!

Get your hands off!

What are you going to do, Morgan?

Are you going to leave him on the ocean?

You got me.

You got me.

Follow me on board and I'll give you my word.

Best behave.

Morgan! Morgan, you can't do it!

Where's the gun?

Overmatched, babe.

You got hands like a bear, Morg.

You're gonna be on the forward deck until we get to Malta. You got it,

You can tell the police all about your little party in Sicily.

I'm gonna make sure they'll be waiting for you with a straight jacket.

All we ask is a fair hearing.

Tell you what, Gil.

I don't care if they hang you. So why don't you start walking up front?

You're in charge.

Yeah.

I just really wish that we could mend all this.

All this.

Misunderstanding. Right?

Come on, baby.

You know, Maury, you are a

very impressive guy.

Harbor Patrol, Harbor Patrol, this is Charlie the Bird. Come in.

He's

got the

eaves again. He needs to use the head.

I'm getting thirsty.

I'd appreciate it if you tossed me my flask. It's in that bag right there.

It's okay.

There ain't no coat on blue, but it's smooth.

Now,

you were my first love.

I will tell you that.

You know what I remember best about it as a kid?

Don't start anything.

That freckles me.

Don't come any closer.

Damn it right from my heart.

That is so damn sexy.

I'll shoot you. I swear to God I will.

I ran their names through over the radio. They killed her father.

They blew up his boat.

Daddy's empire.

He was the Outsman, too. Damn for his health.

I'm having a look at your case, Gil. The one that floats.

These teeth were meant for us.

They burn us. Then we're identified as Gil and Ronnie Freeland.

I'll get us out of here.

I'll get us out of here.

That's awful.

Our hotel's right up there.

We're still here.

Look, I'm going to get some help. Maybe get the phone.

You stay here. Stay warm.

Be right back.

Morgan's scared.

It's been a long haul, baby, but you never complained.

I carried you all the way, and you never, never complained.

We'll be still ours.

Always will be.

Nobody can put out this fire.

Don't worry if I'm gone for a while, baby.

Gil's coming back.

Is this your hotel, Mark?

Is this where the guests check in?

This is where you check in. Your hotel needs work, Mark.

Everything needs work, Gil. Your plan needs work.

Yeah?

You got a surprise for me?

Nasty, Gil.

You could hurt someone with that.

Where's Ronnie?

She's here.

Got a Catherine Constitution.

We're both very lucky that way.

We have our health.

We both.

That was nasty, Mark.

I never will forgive you for whacking me, Mort.

You shouldn't have destroyed my boat.

There are a lot of boats, Mort.

We'll go down to San Diego and start again.

I don't want to start again.

I don't want to go to San Diego.

You don't?

No.

I'd do such hell to get here.

Why would I want to go back?

Run it by me again.

What did you say you're going to do to this place?

Well... I was going to take a little paint and

some plaster.

Maybe a couple of windows.

Then I think we should finish what we started.

I think we should build our hotel.

a hard time keeping up with you.

That's how it's gonna be.
