A Rising Tide Page #2

Synopsis: An inspirational story of redemption, A Rising Tide tells the tale of a young chef, Sam Rama (Hunter Parrish). After the destruction of his family's well-established Atlantic City restaurant during Hurricane Sandy, Sam must grow up quickly, taking the biggest risks of his life, both in business and love. When Sam comes to the aid of a wealthy patron (Tim Daly) and then falls for the newly separated Sarah Bell (Ashley Hinshaw), a chain of unexpected events unfolds for all of them, as they discover the only way to achieve their dreams may be to acknowledge what they owe to others, and realize that the greatest investments take more than cash.

you're gone, you hear me?

Sorry about that.

- Do you have a light?

- Yeah.

- Thanks.

- Oh, thank you,

no I don't smoke.

In case the stove doesn't light.

- You a cook?

- Mmm-hmm.

- Well, the food is really

good, compliments to the chef.

- Thank you.

- Who is the chef,

is he well-known?

- Not really.

It's me.

- Oh.

- There you are.

You did, didn't you?

- Oh, no, that's,

that's mine.

- This is the head chef.

I was talking to him

about catering the party.

- Okay, right.

- So like I was saying,

we're throwing a

party on Saturday.

It's kind of last

minute, not much money.

Like, 1,500?

- 1,500?

- I know.

It's short notice.

- I know some guys.

- Perfect.

- You're a lifesaver.

- Ugh.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

- Can I get a whiskey

please, rocks?

- Sure.

Any you'd prefer?

- Yeah, that one right there.

- That one's not for sale.

It was a gift to

my dad from his dad

when he took over the place.

- Alright, I'll have,

uh, one of those.

Yeah.

Is he coming over here?

- Yep.

- Sh*t.

- Mister Blake.

Hi.

Roger Bell, Leopold Bank.

How are you sir?

- Good to see you, Roger.

- Good to see you, too,

and I wanted to thank

you for reaching out with

the redevelopment deal.

You asked for me

personally, huh?

- I heard good things.

- Okay, well I guess those,

uh, bribes are payin' off.

But we could uh, we

could talk business

on Saturday at the

party, you're coming?

- Charlie put it

in all my gadgets.

- Roger?

- Yeah?

- They're pulling

the car around.

- Oh, Mister Blake, have

you met my wife, Sarah?

- No, I haven't.

- It's a pleasure.

The food here is amazing.

- Yes, it is.

- I hope you enjoy it.

- I've been here before.

It's great, thank you.

- Okay, we'll see you at the

party, have a nice night.

- Hit me again.

- Hey!

You okay?

- Hello there.

- I think you

could use a ride home.

- No.

No, no.

I'm an excellent drunk driver.

Hey.

- Come on.

Let's go.

Switch with me.

- Alright.

- I mean,

on the news, the governors

in Washington saying

they got all this money,

I put in my claim five months

ago, I still got nothing.

I mean I'm staying in

Glasboro with my sister.

The house is a wreck, the first

floor has mud on the floor,

and it has to be gutted.

The whole thing is just,

it just gets to a point

where you just wonder,

is it time to give it up?

Go find work somewhere else.

God, I lived there

my whole life.

- Um, hi, ma'am.

Uh, your husband...

- He's not my husband.

- I'm not, she's not my,

I'm not her husband.

- Oh.

- I run his company.

- Honey, I'm home.

- Is he drunk?

- Of all the things

I own, this spot,

the best thing I

ever spent money on.

- It's a hell of a view.
