Tell me a thought you had this morning.
Anything.
Just something you thought about today.
I thought about brushing my teeth.
And what about brushing your teeth did you think about?
I looked at my brushing-my-teeth smile.
It's not a real smile,
but it's a smile you have to make to have nice teeth
so that I can smile for real.
Anything else?
When I got in my car, I didn't wear a seat belt.
I don't want to die,
but if I have to go,
then who am I to prevent it?
I thought of being thrown through the windscreen.
I think I'm brave enough to admit that the idea of my head being smashed in like an egg
fills me with great comfort.
Brush your teeth for me.
Are you smiling for real?
Show me.
That's good, yes.

Swell on the sea today.
Six boxes, though.
That's great, Seamus.
That's really great.
With the prices now, it could have been nine.
Did you call Joe's cousin?
I already did.
He's looking to crew.
You can't do it all by yourself.
I already did.
He'll find someone.
No, Frankie.
No, Frankie. Frankie.
You can't always get what you want, eh?
Don't forget the bread tomorrow.
Brown, yeah?
Let's try some of that nice sourdough.
Cheaper airfares between Dublin and London have been approved
by the Minister of Communications, Mr. Bichram.
The weather forecast, continuing cloudy and cold
with spells of rain and drizzle.
That's the main news. Have a good night.
Can you take out the rubbish?
He said he'd be here.
He's young, you know.
But he's worked a boat before, yeah?
Waiting for a helping hand, Seamus.
Where's he sailing from? Canada?
I'm sure he'll be here soon.
Yeah?
You're not Dr. Simmons.
No.
I'm Kathleen.
I'm a research assistant.
So you're not a doctor.
I'm a doctoral student.
Neurology.
Come to stare at freaks like me?
- No. - And take notes?
No.
I knew someone like you.
She had the same smell.
When she came down out of the ocean.
She was all wet...
of the other world within.
And fish of the eye face.
I want you, in the night,
high up in there,
in the blue train.
I just, um-- I'm here to learn how to help.
What if I kicked you in the cunt?
What would you learn from that?
Um...
We could fill out these forms for Dr. Simmons.
I think you'd learn quite a lot from that.
Um, just your name,
um, personal details,
and, uh, there's a consent form.
Now, if I held you down...
I bet you'd like what it is I'd have to teach you.
Of the sorts
that you don't have very often
in that wet cunt of yours.
1.50, please.
Thank you.
Sorry, sir, you dropped a piece of paper on the floor there.
Fuck.
Oh, shit.
Fucking bins.
Oh, fuck.
Frankie!
I saw a hearse on the way back.
Frankie!
Do you really need to hold that collar?
Well, yeah. Until I see another four-legged animal.
Yes, yes, I do. Frankie!
- Frankie. Where is he? - The dog is out.
Frankie!
Frankie!
My jokes are hilarious,
and I am a joy to be around.
Oh, no.
- What? - My ring.
My wedding ring. It's gone.
What do you mean?
It's not on my finger. - Are you serious?
- Are you sure you had it on? - I always have it on.
I never take it off.
All right, all right. When did you notice it gone?
Just now. I was swimming over there...
- Your wedding ring! - ...and it's not on anymore.
You can't take it swimming. Things slip off in the water.
I know, I know.
Oh, no. Oh, no, this is bad. This is bad!
I'm so sorry, Seamus!
Don't worry, don't worry. Were you over here?
No, more sort of over there.
It's got to be here somewhere. - No. Back, back.
- Back. No. - This isn't a good sign, Kathleen.
Well, I'm not quite sure, but I suppose it would be.
No, you seem definite. - Definitely.
How do you see this life, and where?
I've seen a flying saucer.
- You've seen one? - Yes, definitely. At Lion's Cove.
- When was this? - 1953.
You don't think this is a figment of your imagination?
Several other people with me saw it.
You all have the same figment.
But I guess that'll be something worth knowing.
I think there is life on other planets.
And how do you see this life?
How do you visualize it yourself?
It's like queer-looking people.
Queer-looking people? Like, totally different from the people?
What form do you think it takes?
Animal. Because we're animals, aren't we?
What are you looking at?
It's nothing.
All right. Well, don't be too late.
Kathleen.
I'm really sorry about your ring.
It's only a ring.
Engine trouble.
I had to turn back halfway.
That's tough luck.
Do you still want me to take those to the market?
Well, yeah.
Are you sure?
Have you room in the front?
You brought the flyer. Good.
Yeah, am I-- am I in the right place, or...
You're on your way to it.
I'm sorry?
I just...
need to ask you a few questions before you can take a seat.
- Okay? - Okay, yeah.
Good. Name?
Seamus Fitzgerald.
Occupation?
- I'm a ship's captain. - A ship's captain.
And how many crew?
It's just myself for the moment. I can't--
Just put "fisherman."
Good.
Do you suffer from claustrophobia?
No.
Have you ever had the dream where you are drowning?
Sorry?
Merely a formality.
But don't-- Put drowning, yeah, yeah.
I've had drowning dreams a few times.
I think there's been a mistake.
I don't think I'm in the right place.
You can go if you want.
But...
why don't you just stay?
Yeah, look. I'm married, so...
Married.
And, uh, do you own an in-date passport?
Well, I do, yeah. I don't have it with me. I didn't think I'd have to--
Thank you, Seamus. That will be all.
Why don't you take a seat down there, next to Tilda?
Look, can I just ask what all this is?
Because if it's, like, a self-help-- - Sit.
Hiya.
Okay, let's start.
The highest of afternoons to you all.
My name is Brendan.
I see you've met my associate, Ivanka.
Is this it?
You there. What's your name?
Seamus.
Seamus? Is this it?
Well, I--
Seamus, is this it? Is this it?
Seems to be.
"It seems to be."
It seems to be.
Listen.
What do you hear?
The traffic.
The traffic outside.
- What is your name? - Andrew.
Andrew, what did you say?
The traffic outside.
No.
The wind?
Maybe on a windy day, Tilda,
but it's not windy, and it's not the right answer.
Listen.
Everything is screaming at you.
The walls of your shitty house.
Your stupid car.
Your disgusting food that you heat up every night.
Your boss.
And do you know what they're screaming?
"Is... this... it?
Is this it?"
You. What's your name?
David.
Okay, David, what do you do?
I work in insurance.
What is that?
I deal with customer issues regarding their policy,
and I help them to work out what--
What is that?
It's an outward-facing rule.
What the fuck is that?
Seamus, what do you do?
Um...
I'm a fisherman.
Oh, a fisherman.
What is that? What is that, Seamus?
What is that?
I'm just catching fish. I just--I just catch fish.
As brave as a lion.
You heard that?
- Yeah, I suppose. - What does it mean?
It doesn't mean anything.
A lion is huge.
Do they need to be brave?
Does it take courage
to be the biggest killing machine in your environment?
Now, the minnow,
that small, tiny, pathetic little fish.
What can it do?
Nothing.
Ever heard of a shoal of minnows
taking down a wildebeest?
No, don't think so.
That's probably because
wildebeests don't live in the sea.
But if they did, and you scoured the ocean,
and you collected the bravest group of minnows together,
then yes, it could happen.
A fucking wildebeest.
The breakfast of minnow champions.
And you are minnows.
Brave, wildebeest-hunting minnows.
Ivanka!
Track four.
CDs.
Fucking brilliant, aren't they?

Tell me, what would you like to do, Andrew?
I'd like to build a treehouse for my children.
Boring. David?
I'd like to tell my boss he's a piece of shit.
Negative, David. Too negative.

Can you believe the orange boxes now have to be 14% smaller?
Sounds fucking boring.
Yeah.
Really boring.
Is this it?
You're an hour early.
Yeah, actually, I just had a couple of questions,
if that's okay.
Yeah, sit down, sit down, sit down.
Well, it's just--
I was gonna ask if...
...like, if it costs anything to do the course, if it's a paid course?
'Cause if it is, I just wanted to say
that I don't think I'm gonna be able to--
Yeah. Yes, it is a paid course.
But not with money.
I can't use your money anyway.
Right, okay.
Yes, just to confirm...
it doesn't cost anything to join, then?
I bet your head is filled with loads of questions.
But you're just too embarrassed to ask, eh?
I knew there was a reason why you came through my door.
Only you can answer that, though.
I can't.
But what I can do is I can help you to where you're going.
Where am I going?
So how long will it take you to fix the engine?
I don't know.
I just know I can't take the boat out very far.
You know, as-- with things as they are.
It might even be a while again before I can fish properly.
Can't you just fix it yourself?
Brendan of Clonfert is one of the Twelve Apostles of Ireland.
He is also referred to as Brendan the Navigator, Brendan the Voyager,
Brendan the Anchorite, and Brendan the Bold.
He was born in the year 484 AD
and is known for his legendary voyage to find the Isle of the Blessed.
Brendan convinced a small number of people in his community
to come with him and leave together on his journey.
They traveled the seas and came across various locations
while searching for the Promised Land.
As the legend goes, on their adventures,
Brendan and his crew landed on an island.
But once they light a fire,
the island started to move, revealing its true nature:
a giant sea creature.
After traveling for seven years,
they finally arrived in the Promised Land,
where they are welcomed and allowed to enter briefly.
Awed by what they have seen,
they return to Ireland, rejoicing.
While the narrative is often assumed to be a religious allegory,
there has been considerable discussion
as to whether the legends are based on fact.
So...
You're Saint Brendan? The Voyager?
Every seven years, I come back to the mainland.
I take a group of people who want to leave this place
and come with me to Hy-Brasil.
Hy-Brasil?
Hy-Brasil is a phantom island
said to lie in the Atlantic Ocean west of Ireland.
Irish myths describe it as cloaked in mist,
except for one day every seven years.
According to scholars, Hy-Brasil is likely the location
of the promised land discovered by Saint Brendan
on his famous voyage.
Despite the failure of attempts to find it,
Hy-Brasil appeared regularly on maps
lying southwest of Galway Bay until 1865.
Needless to say...
You want us to go to Hy-Brasil?
You--you don't want to?
But it isn't real.
It's just made up, isn't it?
Well, of course, It'd be on a map. You'd see it from space.
Can you see your sad, pathetic,
boring life from space?
Yet, it's still there, isn't it?
Have you seen something you can't explain?
Well, I have.
Have you?
Tilda.
What have we said about talking to each other?
Communication between members of the group is not allowed.
Except through Brendan.
Why can't we talk to each other?
You just can't.
Is your life like a music video?
All glittery and tasting of strawberries?
Thought not.
Is this it?
Right on, David.
You got it.
Tilda, come on. Tell them what you've learned.
Hy-Brasil is a place where there is no hate,
no bad thoughts,
bountiful resources with food and wine,
excessive free love,
Paradise on Earth.
It is always 21 degrees Celsius.
It rains at night to keep the island lush.
The sun rises at 7:30,
bringing with it a dry day and gentle breezes.
Sun cream is not needed.
It's sticky and annoying.
Have you got those notes from last Thursday?
Yeah, I put them in a bundle with Dr. Wainwright's.
Over here?
Yeah. There, there, yes.
Right there.
Ah, yes.
You think your world of pens and books
and German cars is real?
It's you who's psychotic. You're the sick one.
Who are you to judge what I think?
Now, let's just relax.
- Just sit down for a minute. - Who are you to tell me what's fucking real, huh?
Let's get back to when you were four, John.
You're fucking laughing at me inside your sick fucking head.
Let's just relax, John. Now, let's just sit down.
You call it illness. I call it dreaming.
- Dreams are real. - Sit down, John.
- I'll sit down! - Sit down, John.
- Sit down. - I'll sit down!
I'll sit down!
I'll sit down!
Fucking sit down! I'll fucking sit down!
I'll sit fucking down!
I've got someone helping me.
I don't know, someone I think can help me out with my situation.
Or our situation.
Like a friend.
A friend who can crew a boat?
I'm not sure.
But I've got a good feeling about it.
I stabbed someone today with a biro.
A patient?
Yes.
Does this mean you have to go looking for a new job now?
I'm on leave until they can sort out what happened.
Are you gonna ask me why?
Why what?
Why I stabbed someone with a biro?
Can I help you?
Welcome. Come in.
- For the lovely lady. - Thank you.
Flowers.
And a CD. Thank you. Welcome.
Cracking pork, Kathleen.
Absolutely delicious.
I'm glad you like it.
A bit dry, though.
So.
Seamus tells me you're visiting.
Yes. Only for a few days.
- And you, Ivanka? - I'm from Russia.
Novosibirsk.
Do you go back?
No.
If I went back,
people would see that I'm not from there anymore.
I would be like a stranger.
Why is that?
Because I look happy.
Happiness, eh?
What is that?
What makes you happy, Kathleen?
What do you do?
Well, I'm working on a doctoral thesis.
A doctoral thesis, eh? Clever thing.
Yeah, I work in a psychiatric clinic.
Wow, what a downer.
Brendan's helping me at the moment.
With--with my boat.
Yes, I'm repurposing it.
Repurposing it?
Yes, it will no longer catch fish,
but it will catch live human beings.
Not to be taken towards someone's plate,
but onwards to better things.
Hmm. Sounds very mysterious.
So, is there much, uh,
money in catching live human beings?
Not money.
But riches.
Is there any veg left, by any chance? This is simply delicious.
No, no, that's the last of it.
So, what are you doing exactly with Seamus's boat?
I was hoping we weren't going to talk business.
But since you ask...
I'm thinking of getting sweatshirts printed.
"I'm feeling High...
Brasil."
- Sweatshirts? - Pink.
They will be quite nice.
Oh, I'm stuffed.
You know what would be great now?
A little whiskey to finish this off.
I don't think we have any whiskey.
An Irishman's house with no whiskey in it.
Maybe I'm the crazy one, huh?
I'm not Irish, I'm American.
Oh, you're not from here?
Boston.
So you came here,
another shore, for a better life.
Don't worry, Seamus.
Where we're going...
...the joy maidens will keep your glass filled.
Every time you outstretch your glass like this,
and lo, it shall be filled.
Joy maidens?
You should see them, Seamus.
Legs up to their neck.
Serving drinks, naked always, by decree.
Can you imagine?
No, of course you can't.
But you will.
You're gonna swap your boat for joy maidens?
It's not like that.
Have you looked this guy up?
Have you looked him up on the internet?
He can be a conman, Seamus.
I don't think he's a conman.
No? Who is he, then?
Why would a conman come all the way over here just to take us out in a boat?
Your boat.
I'm late.
- Where are you going? - I have to go.
- Where? - I have to go.
Where are you going? Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Okay.
You're gonna fix the engine, and you're gonna go fishing.
I have to go!
So--
Okay.
Your turn now, Seamus.
Put it back up.

Tomorrow?
Okay. Yes.
That's fine.
Okay, thank you.
Bye.
I've come here over heavy waves...
and not without considerable danger to my body,
in order to kindly request admission
into the sacred island.
Spurning all others in my life.
In order to seek admittance into the highest of places.
And, your name?
My name is Seamus.
Okay, so, passport.
Do your hair. Smile.
Are you here for a holiday, or do you seek refugee status?
I seek refugee status.
State your plight.
This better not be shit.
The world that I have been inhabiting is lonely.
And I'm not like other men who fill a world
that is both overcrowded with boredom and strife,
while at the same time is empty.
Overcrowded with boredom?
Yeah, it's "overcrowded and boring."
The world that I have been inhabiting is lonely.
And I'm not like other men who fill a world
that is overcrowded, boring
and full of strife...
while at the same time is empty.
Have you listened to the people and objects around you
intently, and with a purpose?
- I have. - And what have you heard?
I've heard everything from my previous life
call out with one voice...
"Is this it?"
Now...
show her your medical.
- You are clean, yes? - Yes, I'm clean.
It is usual at this stage
to be asked how you found out about Hy-Brasil.
The options usually are TV,
online, through a friend, or other.
So, how did you--
- Through a friend. - Other.
Other.
Do you have a change of clothes?
Yes.
- Tweed coat? - Yeah.
One book of your choice?
I--I don't have the book yet. I'm still deciding on--on--
One book, yeah, I have it.
- Your own supply of antibiotics? - Yes.
Toothbrush, toothpaste?
I have all of that.
- Cocktail umbrellas? - Pack of 50.
Okay.
Sign here, and here, and date at the bottom.
Now, the disclaimer.
By entering Hy-Brasil as a refugee,
you agree that your residency here will be permanent.
While you are at liberty to avail
of the many facilities on the island
at no financial charge to yourself,
you may not leave.
Your contributions to Hy-Brasilian society
will be of happy cheer and goodwill.
Raising your voice for any reason is not accepted.
Theft, lying,
or any other kind of unmutual action
will be punished.
The tweed coat is for Sundays.
Do you have any questions?
- Do I? - Why would you?
- I have a question. - Yes?
What is the punishment for unmutual action?
Well, you won't get the attention
of the others, and the maidens, of course.
So it is just maidens, then?
Joy maidens, and joy men.
Good.
Because I was hoping I wouldn't have to turn
into being a lesbian.
In Hy-Brasil...
you're going to be exposed
to truly monstrous levels of sexual activity.
It is a paradise, after all.
I hope that doesn't make you...
uncomfortable.
Tilda?
Not uncomfortable.
Good. Are you sure?
Uh, yes. Quite sure.
Andrew?
I guess, yes.
I'm pretty much okay with that.
Seamus.
How does the thought of free love sound to you?
Well, I suppose when we're over there, it'll be different.
Like, here I'm married.
But it'll all be new,
so, you know, I guess I'll--I'll just have to see.
Kiss Tilda.
I'm sorry?
Kiss Tilda.
Well, it's just, we're not--
we're not on Hy-Brasil at the moment, are we?
So, you know, I don't think--
We're not there yet.
But I have to see that you aren't unmutual.
Should I-- should I stand up, or...
Just scoot your chair over.
Did you like that?
Thank you, Seamus.
What did we say about talking to each other?
Thank you, Brendan.
Can we all kiss Tilda?
Have you got your tweed coat yet?
Not yet.
I think you'd better get that organized
before asking about kissing, don't you?
I suppose.
Go up there.
I came here over heavy waves...
and not without considerable danger to my body...
in order to kindly request admission
to the Sacred Island,
and spurning all others in my life...
to seek admittance to this highest of places.
The sea is cold, and dark,
and unpleasant to be in.
Isn't that right, Seamus?
But on the other side of that vast expanse is salvation.
Now show me you want it!
Grab him. Grab him.
Get down. Get down.
Fuck.
That's enough.
That's enough. That's enough!
Get him down! Get him down. Get him down.
That way. That way. That way. That way.
I can't swim.
Hold him there. Hold him there. Hold him there.
I can't swim!
I can't swim!
- He can't swim. - Relax.
- I can't swim. - Just stop struggling!
You can't speak to him.
- You can't speak to him. - Stop struggling!
- You can't speak to him! - I can't swim!
- Stop struggling. - I can't swim!
I was supposed to keep my shirt on, right?
Water, please.
I have to inform you that for the purposes
of fairness and transparency,
this conversation will be recorded.
Do you wish to consent to this interview being taped?
- I do. - Speak up, please.
- I do. - Good.
Could you state your name for the record, please,
and what you do here?
You're not like the others.
What's not to like about Hy-Brasil?
It's not so much the island itself.
They say there are rivers of wine and all that,
but to tell you the truth...
I don't really drink wine.
I didn't always fish.
I used to crew large cargo ships.
We'd set out for Shanghai or Hong Kong.
We'd go across Asia or sometimes even to California.
It was a good job.
And then, this one afternoon,
we were just a few days out from Manila,
just off the Philippines,
and we came into this squall.
The roll, the waves.
I'd never seen anything like it.
They--they were crashing down on the ship and...
I was absolutely terrified.
And that's when I saw something.
I was up on the bridge, and I could see down to the decks.
And at first I just thought it was, like,
dark water that was swamping the ship.
Then I saw this thing, this...
It was a creature.
It was a--
It was a sea creature.
30 meters in length.
The captain put in an SOS, but...
it was too late to save the ship itself.
The inquest found that it was weather.
Bad luck, that had sunk the ship.
Did the others see what you saw?
Oh, they saw, all right.
But I was the only one to say what I had seen.
They knew best, apparently.
I failed my evaluation. I lost my job.
And now I've got all this bad luck following me around everywhere,
which means I can't even do anything properly.
Which is why I've got a fucking myriad of superstitious rituals,
that just make me look even madder
than people already thought I was.
Flowers, and fairy circles.
I have to turn my clothes around the other way before going in,
so that they can't follow me out.
One magpie bad. Two magpies good.
All of that shit.
You still do that?
I don't. No.
So...
now I'm a fisherman.
And I'm not even good at that.
I believe you.
I believe you, Seamus.
Okay, back to your seats.
Tilda.
Come on over here.
I want to show you all something.
Just kneel here.
Lovely Tilda.
Such a good student.
You've worked hard, haven't you?
I have.
I have worked hard.
That's all I've ever asked.
You've all worked hard.
Thank you, Brendan.
Does anyone have anything nice to say about Tilda?
She reminds me of someone who was kind to me once.
I like her eye.
You'll know the answer to this
as we get nearer to the Sacred Isle.
Do you know what we won't do?
We must not frown or look down
when we arrive at Hy-Brasil.
A look of radiant happiness is imperative
for gaining entry to the Sacred Isle.
I've been practicing my smile.
What did we say about talking to each other?
We shouldn't talk to each other until the final day.
That's correct, David.
David saw you talking to Sheamus.
Is that right or are you a liar?
What are you?
I'm a minnow.
What kind of minnow?
- A brave one. - Show me.
I'm a brave minnow.
What are you?
A brave minnow.
What are you?
A brave minnow.
What are you?
A brave minnow.
Seamus, what is she?
Why don't you ask her?
What are you?
I'm a brave minnow, Seamus.
A brave minnow.
A brave minnow.
A brave minnow.
Sit over there.
That's enough, David.
Ivanka, Track Four, please.

If you are in possession of this CD
and you are listening to this, it means I like you.
Just give me a call, and maybe I can facilitate
your departure to somewhere better.

What do you want? Money?
Because we haven't got any.
What do you want from me?
There's something you want, isn't there?
Just tell me it's not real.
Will you tell me?
Kathleen.
Kathleen.
I remember one time at school...
a girl from the other class was bullying me.
So she pushed me at the stairs, and I fell down.
At first I was-- I remember, I was upset.
But then, when everyone has gone,
and I was alone there, sitting...
I suddenly realized that there was something
that I actually liked about it.
So, I stood up...
and made myself fall again.
I don't know why.
Then I stood up again,
and fell down again.
And somehow, the pain from the first fall,
when the girl pushed me, faded away.
The prefrontal cortex...
plays a central role...
in guiding decision-making.
Its function...
can be altered by alcohol use.
Alcohol...
depresses inhibitions,
leading one to become more talkative,
more confident.
It blunts the senses,
and increases the threshold for pain.
I can't fight.
Kathleen.
Do you believe me about what happened on the cargo ship?
- Do you? - I can't fight.
Do you believe me about what happened on the cargo ship?
You're asking if I believe you
that a giant sea monster sank your ship?
Hi, John.
I just came here to collect my things.
I won't be working with you anymore.
Oh, is this what they're giving you?
I hope it helps you sleep.
I know more than most how you're struggling.
And you think no one else understands,
but they do.
They really do.
I want you to know something,
and I mean it
from the bottom of my heart.
I hope you suffer.
Really...
suffer.
My professional opinion is that...
you're never, ever gonna get out of here.
Not ever.
When I was a boy,
I would lay out the broccoli on my plate,
like a little forest.
Then I'd be a Brachiosaurus.
That's a vegetarian dinosaur.
And then I'd eat it all.
I--I like to talk with my mouth full.
When I was a boy, I wanted to be an astronaut.
But I realized you had to be an American to be an astronaut.
No Irishman has ever been into space.
So, then I wanted to be an American.
Let's discuss logistics.
The immigration fee, it's 16.45.
So, please make sure you have the exact change.
Is that 16.45 euro?
Yes, David, in euro.
Tomorrow at nine in the morning,
we will all meet down there at Seamus's boat.
You will stay with him tonight, as it is the closest.
I--I hope that's okay, Seamus.
So, tomorrow you all come...
or you all don't.
This will help with that.
Kathleen.
Kathleen.
This is really excellent.
Brendan said the food was excellent here.
Can I just ask--
Wait, you're not going to try and mainland him, are you?
Mainland him?
You're not going to try and keep him on the mainland.
The land of the unlimited, or--
l--limited, uh, boredom and infinite sorrow,
like mainlanders do.
I was just going to ask if you wanted more.
Isn't that what we're all doing?
Looking for more.
I'd have some more.
It's mainlanders. Mainlanders.
Not main-landers.
Main-land. Main-lander. Main-landers.
It's Ireland. You don't say Ire-land.
It's Ireland. Mainland.
You're all fucking insane.
Are you going to miss television?
Why, will they not have television in Hy-Brasil?
I shouldn't think so.
What else are you going to miss?
Post offices.
Horse racing.
Toffee pops.
I bet they don't have them in Hy-Brasil.
Or Christmas.
Smokey bacon crisps.
Saint Patrick's Day parades.
Are you Tilda?
I am.
I've come here to take your dog.
- Seamus mentioned-- - You can't take the dog.
From tomorrow there will be no one here to look after him.
Is everyone in there?
Please leave.
Would you like me to take the dog now?
I'll take good care of him.
I've always wanted one.
Look, I knew that cake would win.
It's far more creative than the others.
Look at all that edible glitter.
Can you try not to move?
I have to be fresh for tomorrow.
- I have a big day. - Stay with me.
Some of us are trying to sleep.
You don't have to go.
You really don't. You don't.
- You don't have to go, Seamus. - I'm sorry.
Seamus. Seamus.
Can you just let him sleep, so we can all sleep?
I'm right here.
For fuck's sake.
- Touch me, Seamus. - Kathleen.
- Seamus. Touch me. - Kathleen, I can't.
It wouldn't hurt if you kept the noise down, too.
Please. Please.
You need to stay.
Stay with me.
I can't.
I have to go.
- Tell her to shut up. - You shut up.
Seamus.
Will you stop pulling that fucking thing?
He doesn't want you, okay?
Ow, you can't make a move like that without giving me some warning.
Does that sow really have to sleep in here?
Hey, hey, everybody calm down, all right?
I say she leaves the room.
- This is ridiculous. - She's not leaving the room.
- I'm not going anywhere. - She's not leaving the room.
You can't fucking yank my arm like that.
Ow! Me arm! Ow.
Ow.
All right, you leave the room.
I'm not going anywhere.
You can't yank my fucking arm like that!
This is her room. This is her room.
- Oh, my arm! - Get off him.
Oh, my--
No! Oh, my gosh. Seamus! No.
Kathleen. Kathleen, you go. - Get off! Oh, God.
Not long now, boys.
I'm scared.
I'm scared, too.
When I was a boy, I owned an air rifle.
I got it for my 12th birthday.
And I was so excited to use it,
that I went out into the woods,
just looking for something to shoot at.
I saw this little robin...
just on the ground, going through the twigs.
And I was so excited to try out my new skills,
that I took aim at it.
And I shot it.
And I killed it.
And I was so overcome by what I'd just done...
all that excitement just left me.
Will it be a smooth crossing?
How far out is the island?
About 40 miles, give or take.
We've only enough fuel for 60.
If we go at a steady pace.
What if we can't find it, we can't make it back?
Seamus! Seamus!
Seamus!
Seamus! Seamus!
How do you start this thing, Seamus?
Turn it up.
Turn it up!
