...my sweetheart, the love of my life...

...who's here to handout the

should definitely go over there.

But that's not where it's

meant to be. - Yes, sir.

Send a request to bunk at

the next port. - Okay, captain.

Superintendent has

called again for the reports.

Sir, we'll just have to manage

on some variable to dry though.

Really tell him to

shut up and get moving.

Hear this whole ship is older

than my cruise officer days.

Daddy. Whose ship are we going to?

To dad's old friend's ship.

And where are we going to?

Well, far, far away,

to your dad's place.

You want to see my home, son?

- Yes.

Your grandpa's there. - But mummy

told me that grandpa went to heaven.

You've got another grandpa.

Oh! Two grandpas? Will

mummy also come there?

No.

No, 8 short years, mate.

Where have you been? No emails,

no phone-calls, nothing!

We knew that you'd immigrate somewhere

proper but we'd no idea where.

A long story, mate.

Sam. Say hello.

Hello. My name is sam and

this is my octopian boy.

Octopian... but wow!

He's just being silly.

I'm razia. Come let's go.

Sam, here.

What's wrong?

- It's time for sam's next dose.

He's got diabetes.

Diabetes. It's for old people.

My son's got it a bit early.

Juvenile diabetes.

Sam, your hand.

Watch it.

It's paining.

So sam is really not medha's son.

Yeah. Apparently, he lost her.

She married some yachtsman.

Where is she?

He really didn't want to

talk about it...

...but i know that

he hasn't been home in years.

Can't believe it.

Here, have some coffee.

Darling, you make incredible coffee.

Some of the best.

But i told vinay that

we'll be going to...

...the seaman's club tonight

and have some drinks.

Sam...

- i'll take care of him.

"I walk away from the blue light."

Freddie, memories are like wine, man.

Tastes better with time.

You're absolutely right, vinay.

But bad memories get bitter with time.

Freddie man, memories come and go,

we don't have a choice.

You do remember your first love.

First love? I remember my first drink.

Well that's what my music will make.

Memories are like wine.

Freddy, you tell me,

what's more painful...

...unexpressed love or unrequited love?

If you'd expressed it on time...

...you'd would have gotten your love.

But it's too late.

It's time to board. I gotta go!

Vinay.

The surveyor has boarded,

will you make sure everything's alright?

I'll have a quick round.

- I'll take sam.

Sam, don't trouble razia. Okay?

If this ship sinks,

we can escape in these lifeboats.

And what if the lifeboat sinks?

Good question.

Well lifeboat rarely sink.

And even if they do, you've your

life jacket to keep you afloat.

But what if the life jacket sinks?

Arjit! Arjit!

Don't fire the boiler,

oil has accumulated on the floor?

Clean that out first.

Daddy!

Daddy.

Your daddy is busy, we'll go?

Okay.

Hey darling,

I think i've a job for you.

Ok, i'll be right there.

Don't worry, give me an hour

But filling those tanks

partially is dangerous.

It's better to fill

the double-bottom tanks instead.

But you've some problems

with your transfer lines.

Crap!

Is there anything?

Anything at all that works fine

on this 200 year old rust bucket.

Great.

You 2 carry on,

Crap, i've gotta give sam a shot.

The fire must've broken through that...
