was still there.

Yes, I uh, I read

the ad actually.

Great.

Want a closer look?

Please.

"Amazing...

Grace.

Grace.

Grace.

"Amazing grace".

Are you a sailor that keeps

the name of the boat?

Amazing grace is a perfect name.

If I buy this I will

re-paint it.

May I ask why you're selling it?

When my father couldn't

manage it on his own anymore

he gave it to me.

He's a generous man.

He was.

He passed away recently.

The cabin is in good shape.

There's beautiful mahogany

wood down below.

She's much faster

than you would expect.

So uh, one day you just decided

to jump into the deep end?

The deep end?

Yeah, looking at buying a boat

like this, you know?

Out of- out of the blue?

It was a boat from the blue,

yes.

Well, uh, just so you know

I'm asking 16-

16,000

$16,000?

Yes, $16,000.

Are you firm on that price?

What do you have in mind?

Perhaps we can sit down

and discuss a price

that works for both of us?

Yeah, why not?

I'm Neil wiston, by the way.

Imir.

Shah.

Beth, Ted's been calling

every 20 minutes, I don't

know what to do.

A weekend away?

We're talking serious risk.

Right.

I know, but I think I'll lose

him if I don't go.

And that doesn't set off

warning bells?

Ok, I got it.

You don't think I should go.

Honey, listen to me.

Right now you and Ted

have a thing.

If you go away with him,

it's not a thing anymore.

It's a different thing.

Don't go down that road

unless you're absolutely sure.

Are you there?

Yeah.

Ellen, are you ok?

Hey!

Hey!

Come here!

Get back here!

You get back here!

You little f***ers!

Nooo!

Hey!

Oh my god.

Beer?

Thank you.

I wasn't sure if uh, alcohol

was allowed.

Haram.

Haram, right.

And it's been a long time

since I was in a mosque.

Oh, so you're not a-

you're not a practicing-

uh, not a practicing one, no.

Ah.

This must be your son.

That's him. That's Shane.

How old?

16. Smart kid.

Takes after his dad.

May I ask what you do

for a living?

I'm in it.

Um, computers.

Jesus Christ, my laptop!

Sh*t.

I hope this wasn't my doing.

No, no.

I'm uh, trying to write

my father's eulogy.

It's driving me crazy.

Were you and your father close?

Yeah, I like to think so.

I need a good opening.

Once I get that, then

the rest will follow.

Maybe you should start

with a childhood memory.

Speak to who

your father was,

not what he accomplished

in his life.

Oh, I got plenty of

sailing stories.

My brother Dave and I spent

every weekend on the boat

when we were kids.

There. You've got your opening.

May I make another suggestion?

Sure.

In my humble opinion,

allow the story of your father

to have true meaning.

True meaning?

I was taught the dead live on
