Jeopardy Page #2

We'll get plenty of water.

Why, I think I see one right up ahead

right now.

Where, Dad, where?

Pay no attention to your father, son.

He's just being humorous.

Dad, this is no time for jokes.

Why, we might be in perils.

- Are we, Mom?

- No, darling.

Look, "Garaje, water."

Two people per square mile.

I live right.

Well...

...it may not be 50 pumps,

but we'll get some water.

Maybe we can even

get something to eat.

I'm going to order a nice

ice-cold glass of tea...

...breast of chicken salad, with just

a touch of lettuce and watercress.

Say, that's pretty good, Dad.

Oh, look, fiesta.

- That was two days ago.

- They should be back.

Takes them three days

to get over a fiesta.

- What's a fiesta?

- A feast day.

Feast day. Gee, I'm starved.

We'll have lunch at the beach.

If we ever get there.

We were looking for water, amigo,

remember?

- You look around the back, Bobby.

- Okay.

Let's see, tires, tubes, stuff like that.

- I've got some, I've got some.

- That's a good boy.

Least we can do for them.

See that rock formation up ahead?

Those funny-looking boulders?

- What about them?

- I remember them.

- We're getting closer.

- I'm glad we're getting close to something.

What a memory, Dad.

Look at the quail.

I suppose you recognize

some of them too.

Seems like only yesterday

Joe and I were scouting...

...Iooking for some of the best

fishing and hunting.

Those were the days. What an outing.

Tell about it, Dad.

Whatever became of Joe?

He probably never survived the outing.

Doug, are you sure

we're on the right road?

- Positive.

- You could have asked, couldn't you?

Why should I ask when I know?

Is it beneath your dignity

to ask directions?

Mom, it ain't...

- Isn't.

- Isn't his dignity.

Dad just knows, that's all.

There she is.

Turnoff for the beach

is just a little further down the road.

This is a road?

Honey, we're almost over

the worst of it now.

In a few minutes

you'll be swimming in that surf.

Think of all that wonderful privacy.

I'd enjoy the wonderful privacy of a nice

bubble bath right at the moment.

Mom, you always

think about civilization.

Don't knock it, son.

Just get a whiff of that air.

Honey, you're gonna love it.

There's the beach.

That's where Joe and I camped,

there at the base of that jetty.

- Who lives in those houses, Doug?

- Nobody.

They've been empty for years.

Picked clean.

- It's beautiful.

- How do we get down there?

There's a road down the side

of the bluff. Come on, let's take a look.

I was happy that we had finally arrived

at Doug's beach...

... but there was something about that jetty,

I didn't know what.

Reaching out into the water,
