- Don't know anything about that.

- No. No, king.

- Captain.

- That would be a violation...

...of the Outer Space Peace Treaty

of 1967.

The sky belongs to no one country

and no weapons shall exist in the sky.

The sky is sacred.

The shelter over all of us.

Working for the military here,

I am authorized to offer the Kingdom this.

Fourteen agriculturally-perfect acres

on the other side of this mountain.

- Now, Sunday--

- Ahem.

Hmm?

Sunday at 10, we swing a ceremony.

Couple of guys in the garb,

little hula-hula, blow the horn.

- Mm-hm.

- We all work together.

No, brah. Grab some food,

listen to the music and go home.

How can we make this work, Bumpy?

- He says two mountains.

- What?

- Two mountains.

- Captain, please.

- What?

- My kupuna says the two mountains...

...the two at the foot of the valley.

In good faith.

Whoa, whoa. I can't--

I can't give you back Hawaii, Bumpy.

And free cell phone service.

We don't get but one bar.

- In fact, we hardly get that.

- I can't do that.

- You're making it impossible for me.

- Take it or leave it.

- King.

Captain.

I believe in our land and our myths

and our traditions...

...and more than anything, in the sky.

- What are you doing?

- This is not the military of old, Bumpy.

This is the new.

And you have my word,

as a member of the 15th Airlift...

...of the United States

Air Force Space Command...

...that we will not put weapons

above these sacred islands.

You can trust me.

Bumpy, I'm sorry.

Will you do one thing for me?

- Of course.

- Can I hear "Waimanalo Blues"...

...in the style of Gabby?

- Sure.

I used to have a cassette version

and I lost it...

...and I crave it,

and I know they can play it.

I guarantee it. Let's do that.

Okay.

Wind's gonna blow, so I'm gonna go

I'm on the road again

Starting where the mountains left me

I end up where I began

The beaches they sell

To build their hotels

My fathers and I once knew

Birds all along sunlight at dawn

Singing Waimanalo blues

Yeah.

Down on the road

Mountains so old

Far on the countryside

MAN 1; on, yeah.

MAN 2; Yeah.

Birds on the wing forget in a while

- Sorry-

Okay-

All of your dreams

Sometimes it just seems

That I'm just... II

- Free cell service and--

- Half a mountain.

- Two mountains.

- No cell phone, one mountain.

- Three mountains, no cell phone.

- Two mountains, cell phone.

- We're there. You're tough.

- Tough? I gave you everything.

- I didn't wanna give it.

- Thanks for bringing the car up.

- Yeah, brah, no problem.

- This is our sovereign flag.

My gift to you

because we always ohana.

I felt a lot of mana

from the two of you tonight.

Especially you.
