Dolphin Tale 2 Page #3

Synopsis: It has been several years since young Sawyer Nelson and the dedicated team at the Clearwater Marine Hospital, headed by Dr. Clay Haskett, rescued Winter. With the help of Dr. Cameron McCarthy, who developed a unique prosthetic tail for the injured dolphin, they were able to save her life. Yet their fight is not over. Winter's surrogate mother, the very elderly dolphin Panama, has passed away, leaving Winter without the only poolmate she has ever known. However, the loss of Panama may have even greater repercussions for Winter, who, according to USDA regulations, cannot be housed alone, as dolphins' social behavior requires them to be paired with other dolphins. Time is running out to find a companion for her before the team at Clearwater loses their beloved Winter to another aquarium.

It's really good that

you're keeping her company.

What's that?

Oh.

Yeah, I forgot.

Hey, I know this program.

It's out of Boston, right?

Yeah.

They invited me.

That's fantastic, buddy!

That is a big deal!

So when do you go?

September something.

But it's for three months. Think it's

okay for me to leave Winter that long?

She'll be fine.

We've gotta pair her up with

another female, don't we?

Yeah. That's true.

We've got Mandy now.

We do.

What do they say?

"Whenever one door closes,

another one opens."

Yeah.

So you're saying basically

she's depressed?

Yeah, in dolphin terms,

yes, she's lethargic...

not interacting, refusing

her food for the most part.

We're trying to increase

her supplements, but...

What about the prosthetic?

She's refusing that too.

So it's possible her spine

is deteriorating again?

It's possible.

I have an ultrasound and x-ray

set scheduled for Friday.

It's been, what, three weeks? And you've kept

her away from the public the whole time.

Yup. I have.

Sounds like she's missing Panama.

She's probably lonely.

And isn't it against USDA regulations

to keep a dolphin in a pool alone?

We have another female.

Why don't we just put Mandy in with her?

I can't give you an

answer on that right now.

But we're more than just a hospital now.

We're a full-blown aquarium.

People are coming from all over

the world to see and learn.

- I'm aware of what people...

- That allows us...

to expand and build more care facilities

and pools and operating rooms.

And how many of those people

have come to see Winter?

Clay, come on. You've seen the faces

of the kids and the veterans, right?

How moved and inspired they are.

Isn't that part of our mission too?

You can't just throw two

dolphins in the water together!

It doesn't work that way!

I'm not trying to tell you

how to do your job, Clay.

I'm just saying that putting Mandy

and Winter together in the pool...

as soon as possible would be a heck

of a good idea. Don't you think?

Come on up! Good girl.

Yeah. Good girl.

How's Mandy doing?

Pretty good.

Her sunburn is looking a lot better.

Good.

- What's with Rufus?

- I don't know.

He's been doing that for a couple days now,

just up and down to that dock over there.

Why?

I don't know.

Maybe he's losing his mind.

Heh. Not that there's much to lose.

Which dock is it?

- What is that?

- Is there something under there?

I don't know.

- What is it?

- I have no idea.

Oh, my gosh.

Here, get its head up!

Oh, my gosh. It's all tangled.

- Rufus...!

- We got him.

Rufus...!

Rufus, cut it out!

What is your issue?

Go away!

- Well, least she didn't swallow the hook.

- Yeah.

When these guys throw their old fishing
