He was a shark caller.

Most of us here survived the first days

of the flood because of him.

He died when I was young.

This is all he left me.

There must be a reason he left it with you.

You have to help us.

Your face!

Her...

Beautiful!

- Hold up, buddy. What's in the bag?

- None of your business.

We don't allow weapons or contraband in here.

Oh, really? Uh, what's that?

This? It's only ceremonial.

- So's the bag.

- Give me that!

You're asking for trouble!

Great. What do we do now?

I'm keeping this for my trouble.

Do you know who that was?

Wait!

- You're Ann Aldrin.

- Been called worse.

We have an opportunity,

a unique charter. We need...

You need a few more bags like that

to start that conversation.

I'm not interested.

Come on!

Come on!

Where you going with that?

And the rest of it?

I'm finished with this.

You're finished when I say

you're finished, honey.

That's my tenth run today.

I'm winning this place dry.

How long before all these suckers

realize they can't win?

You'll just have to be

a little more creative.

I work best at 50 fathoms.

I do wet work, not dry.

You're the idea man, I'm the free diver...

...and right now you're not really

adding much to that equation.

I got me ear to the ground for a big score.

There's a freighter inbound

with some serious cheddar.

In the meantime, we're gonna need

some more pocket money, honey.

From now on, you'll be getting

your own pocket money.

We're done.

Usual.

That was pretty good...

...for an amateur.

And I suppose you want to challenge me?

No.

I want to offer you more for your time...

...an opportunity to get out from under

whatever hold that lowlife has on you.

- What kind of con is this?

- It's no con.

It's the opportunity of a lifetime.

Yeah, I've heard that before.

Listen. Someone with your skills...

...shouldn't be wasting it on drinking money.

Do you want to spend the rest of

your life with your head in a bucket?

How 'bout I put your head in a bucket?

No offense...

...but you're better than this.

Go on.

You know Hawksbill Fortress?

We're gonna crack it open.

What do you say?

I'd say you're buying me a drink.

Come on. What are you doing to me?

Is that thing for real,

or is it just for show?

- Depends who's asking.

- That would be me.

In that case, it's real.

Stop.

Left.

I saw what you did.

What did you see?

- You pinged the shells.

- Excuse me?

You know, like a dolphin would.

It's acoustics and sonar.

We're not on the water...

What really struck me is the skill

it must have taken to miniaturize that.

- What do you want?

- I have a job opportunity.

I'm retired.

I noticed you gave away your winnings.
