Six Days Seven Nights Page #2

Synopsis: Taking a romantic tropical island week off with her boyfriend, an ambitious, decisive New York girl agrees to help her magazine out by covering a story on a neighboring island. The only plane available is piloted by a laid-back heavy drinker with whom she shares a mutual dislike. But she has no choice and he can't refuse the money. When the plane crash-lands on an uninhabited island with little chance of rescue they both wish they had made other arrangements - at least to start with.

- Hey, you know what today is?

- What?

- It's our anniversary.

- We have an anniversary?

Yeah, unofficially.

- Three years ago today, we first met.

- Today?

Today. You don't remember?

We fought over a cab.

- Oh, I called you a jerk. Yes. Yes.

- Oh, great, that you remember.

- Sorry.

- That's okay.

It was all part of love's odyssey.

- Odyssey?

- Mm-hmm.

If I asked, "Would you wear

something special for me tonight..."

What'd you have in mind?

- This.

- [Gasps]

Will you marry me?

Dd [Calypso]

D The Calypsonians d

d Were all gathered together d

d Singin' such a mournful tune d

d I don't know if it was

in the summertime d

d It could be the month

of May or June d

[Laughs] I'll be back

in a second, okay?

All right.

D Over lovin'

Over, over, over d

d Over lovin' you dd

[Belches]

- I always thought

this was a beautiful island,

- [Gasps]

But with you here,

it is even more beautiful.

- [Scoffs]

- How long have you been on Makatea?

- You're kidding, right?

- No.

You brought me here...

today.

Five hours ago?

- Oh. So much has happened since then...

- [Chair Breaks]

Oh! Oops. Oopsy.

Wow. There you go.

[Chuckles]

- I slipped.

- Yeah.

So where is your,

uh, copilot?

Oh, she's busy

with the tourists.

Well, that sounds

like you don't like us.

Oh, no. Never bite the hand

that feeds... uh, your mouth.

- [Laughs]

- Whatever.

Besides, you know, they're...

they're good for a laugh. [Chuckles]

- You're a big laugher, are you?

- Oh, yeah.

- Oh.

- Mm-hmm.

They come here looking

for "the magic,"

expecting to find romance...

when they can't find it

any other place.

- Maybe they will.

- [Scoffs]

It's an island, babe.

If you don't bring it here,

you won't find it here.

Oh, heavy.

Pilot and philosopher.

- Let me buy you a drink.

- Hey, I'm here with somebody.

You remember him?

He came in with me.

[Groans]

I meant both of you.

No, you didn't.

- You're from New York, aren't you?

- Hey, is everything okay?

- Well, hi. Nice to see you again.

- Yeah, you too.

- Let me buy you a drink.

- Oh, that's very...

- Let's go.

- Oh, but we're leaving. And so...

- Well, maybe some other time...

- Ta-ta.

I'll buy you a drink.

Okay. Bye.

- Was he bothering you?

- Oh, no.

Was he hitting on you? From over there,

it looked like he was hitting on you.

- Maybe a little...

- He was? Do you want me

to do something about it?

- Like what?

- Hey, I don't go to the gym every day

just to watch old guys shower.

- You know, I will...

- Really? Really?

[Frank]

Well done, ocean. Well done, sky.

[Miss Monroe]

Well done, mai tais.

[Chuckles]

Well done, silicone. Oh, my.
