Being Richard Walton's grandson,

seems to me that

you're the natural heir.

Unfortunately, I'm completely preoccupied

with developing this island,

or else I'd look for it myself.

I'll tell you what.

If you discover anything on

my island, it's all yours.

It would appear you have a

treasure hunt ahead of you.

Hello? Yes, hold on.

I'm so sorry. I have to take this call.

It's rather private.

Oh, yeah, sure.

Glad to see you made it

out of the forest alive.

Oh. You know what?

Here. Got you something.

Just so you don't have to put up

with that

ice-cream lady's attitude

next time you need a fix.

Thanks.

So, my dad and Trent

grew up here. Crazy.

I can't believe

they're tearing it down.

What?

Eighteenth fairway

is going right through here.

That's your grandfather

right there.

Breaks my heart.

I love this house.

Hey, before they tear it down,

I have something to show you.

This is my favorite

room in the house.

Do you play?

"Authentic world

war ii cipher decoder

"used by U.S.

Navy intelligence."

My dad's prize possession.

Basically useless, though.

Try opening it.

Yeah, the only way

is with a key.

Your grandfather's design.

Hardly see my dad all year,

and then he forces me to come

to this island every summer

just so he can sit in his

office and ignore me.

And your parents,

when did they...

When did they split?

Yeah.

Long time ago.

My mom got remarried,

new step-kids, new life.

Yeah, I get it.

Sometimes it's lonely

when it feels like...

Nothing fits?

Yeah, but at least

you don't have

your parents breathing

down your neck.

And plus, you're rich. I

would trade you in a second.

No, be careful

what you wish for.

You know, no disrespect

or anything,

but don't front like

you have it rough, okay?

You have money. You can

pretty much fit anywhere.

Your family was

wealthy once, too.

That house?

It all could've been yours until Trent

lost it to my dad in a card game.

That's impossible.

I'm having the best time ever.

I'm learning how to

catch lobster, play poker.

Please, can I stay, dad?

I'll do anything. Please?

Okay, hey.

Okay, buddy, you can stay.

Sounds like you're having fun.

No more poker. Promise.

Put uncle Trent on the phone.

Yes! Thank you!

Love you, dad, bye!

Yeah?

Did you do it yet?

I'm working on it.

How about you stop working on it,

Trent, and you actually do it?

That was the deal.

No, that was your deal,

not mine.

You didn't agree to anything.

How about just once you don't

have to agree and negotiate?

You just take

responsibility for something.

That would be such a miracle

in my little life, Trent,

if you just took

responsibility for something
