Red Water Page #2
What do we got here?
Came in on that bateau, | seems to be in shock.
- Earl, get this boy some help. | - Yes, sir.
Come on, boy, | let's get you out of the sun.
- Where you all headed? | - Lake Verret.
- Oh, boating accident? | - Now, you see, that's the funny thing.
We got us a report of a shark attack.
Now, a shark swims only in the ocean, | so that makes it a saltwater fish.
- Yeah, that's right. | - It's mostly right.
- Mostly? | - They got one kind of shark...
...that could survive | in freshwater: Bull shark.
Well, I'll be. You learn | something new every day.
Keep it on top of the water, John.
- Okay, boys, let's shove off. | - Okay. Cast off that stern line.
I got it.
Go.
Bull shark, huh?
Smart-ass.
Hello, John.
Kelli.
This is Gene Bradley. | He works with me.
Glad to meet you. Kelli's been | singing your praises.
- Really? | - Can we talk? It's important.
We shot seismic over | Black Cove in Sector 5.
Did AVO, and the analysis showed | dramatically increasing amplitude...
...with significant | horizontal displacement.
I don't know what the hell | you're talking about, girl.
Amplitude Variation with Offset. | It's an interpretation technique...
...to indicate rock lithology | and fluid content.
It means they found | a whole bunch of natural gas.
Sector 5 is in the wildlife refuge. | Whose bright idea was that?
Mine.
- How'd you swing the lease? | - Our people tacked it on to...
...an appropriations bill | and slipped it through Congress.
Energy independence, developing | domestic resources, you know.
- How many cubic feet? | - Two to three billion.
We bring this in, Discovery | Petroleum's playing with the big boys.
Well, hats and horns.
What are you doing here, Kelli?
We've been drilling | and coming up with dusters.
We just got a bit stuck | and had to break it loose.
So we're a little befuddled.
Might have to put | that champagne on ice.
John, you're the best DD | in the business.
Once upon a time.
- Who's your tool pusher now? | - Hank Ellis.
- Hank trained me. | - He doesn't have your magic.
Oh, magic. Right.
Could you excuse us, please?
- John, I know how you feel about me. | - Do you?
All right, you want me | to say it? I'll say it.
I need you.
- Like three years ago? | - Let's not go through that.
What happened to you, huh, Kelli? | And your mighty scientific principles?
I mean, drilling in a wildlife refuge?
I make sure it's done right. | The ecosystem isn't harmed.
Pull this one, it plays Jingle Bells.
Money didn't used to mean | so much to you.
Speaking of which, | I know your situation.
I'm doing fine.
- You're gonna lose this boat. | - That's my business.
You're just hardheaded | and stubborn.
