You're just having a bad dream.

That's all, baby.

That's all it was.

Bad dreams make you think you've seen

things that you haven't.

You know what I do

when I have a bad dream?

I close my eyes and I think of

something nice.

Like being

here with you.

Hurry up, sweetheart.

We're gonna be late.

Sh*t.

Jack?

Did you see someone

ring my doorbell?

No.

Okay, thanks.

I cleaned everything away, sweetheart.

Everything is exactly

the way it was before.

They're clean and shiny. Look.

Look. You see?

Okay, all right.

Just close your eyes.

Well, hello, sailor.

Hi!

Permission to come aboard?

Honey, hold this.

So sorry we couldn't make it yesterday.

Somebody was working late again.

How're you doing, Sal?

I'm good.

How are you?

I'm all right.

Look at you.

Do you like it?

You look great.

Really? I just

kinda threw it on.

She's had outfits

laid out for a week.

You're such a liar.

You know my husband.

I don't listen to what he says.

You know that.

I brought my really good friend,

Heather. She's so nice.

Promise me

you'll be attentive.

How're you doing, man?

She's not to bring anyone.

You don't like her? Believe me,

she's the best looking of Sally's friends.

Which it doesn't say much.

I asked you not to.

You're living on a boat with an 18-year

old boy and you're saying no girls.

Greg, this is Heather.

She's a very good friend of mine, and I just

thought you guys should meet.

Hi.

Can you just excuse me

for a moment?

Jess. You okay?

I don't think so.

Hey. What happened?

Hey. What's the matter?

I'm sorry.

You've got nothing

to apologize for.

What is it?

Are you okay?

I'm just tired.

Well, listen, we don't have to go today

if you don't want to.

No, we do. I-I wanna go.

You sure?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah? Okay, come on.

Come up here.

This is Sally and

her husband, Downey.

This is Heather, Sally's friend.

You remember Victor.

So let's go sailing!

Okay.

Hey.

You okay?

Is Greg okay?

He's fine.

He's upstairs.

You've been asleep

for a couple of hours.

I had this terrible dream.

What about?

I don't remember.

I wouldn't worry.

Apparently bad dreams cure you

of real life stress.

As indeed does champagne.

You want some?

Yeah.

Downey, wanna give me

a hand, please?

Actually, Victor, I'm a guest of

the Captain's, but yes, I witt help you.

Victor, what was that

back there at the harbor?

What?

I asked Jess if she was all right

and you said no.

You told me she was bringing

the little boy along.

When I was walking with her

in the harbor I asked where he was.

She couldn't remember.

She stared into space

for like 20 seconds

and then she said

he's at school.

So?

Well, it's Saturday.

Ain't no school today.

Her son goes to a special needs school

and it's open every day.

Be nice to her.

All right.

Do you boys

sunbathe together?

Sometimes.

The champagne is not great

but it is cold. Want some?

No thanks.

Okay, more for me.

Hey, how are you feeling?

I'm sorry, I didn't

realize how tired I was.

You apologize one more time,

and I'm gonna throw you overboard.

Here.

You all right?

Yeah.

He thinks we're a fishing hoat.

He's gonna go hungry.

You want to steer?

Nah.

Go on.

Which way do I aim?

You're gonna aim that way.

It's easy, right?

So, she's a waitress

at some diner.

At least there they talk.

They became friends.

Oh, and she has

an autistic son.

So they're just friends.

Sally!

What do you want me to say?

I'm sorry she has a retarded son?

Yeah!

Well, I'm sorry. You know, that's not

Greg's problem, that's hers.

What is it, is it the shorts?

No! Heather, Greg's been my friend

for a really long time.

I can't just sit back and watch him

get shaken down.

She isn't doing that.

Well, I hope not because Greg is

far too trusting.

I'm kinda linking the boy.

Uh, no, you're not. Can you please

go up there and talk to Greg?

I really think the two of you will

be perfect for each other.

And I really don't like

seeing him with her.

Jess, are you ready?

Yeah, let her go.

Yeah.

Woo!

So, how do you know everyone?

Victor, he's staying

with me for good.

He got in troubte at home.

He had to get away.

I found him sleeping behind

the store at the harbor.

You know, we got talking,

and now he lives here.

Just like that

you let him move in?

Well, I got three rooms.

I can't sleep in them all.

And Downey, I've known him

since I was a kid.

Sally, his wife, I know her from

high school.

I dated her for like four days

in the eighth grade,

so technically

she's my ex.

They seem really nice.

Yeah. Except for the fact that

every year they feel obliged

to bring me an eligible girl.

Maybe they think you're lonely.

Do I give off lonely to you?

Sometimes.

When I come to see you at the diner,

I'm not lonely, I'm hungry.

Obviously yesterday was different.

What happened yesterday?

Yesterday I was not hungry.

I came in with the sole purpose

of inviting you sailing.

You did?

I did.

Turn at port side.

We're losing wind.

Let me check it

for]ust a sec.

So, things are

okay with Tommy?

The same.

Every day is the same.

Tommy likes the things

to be a certain way. Yeah.

If I do one thing

differently, I lose him.

What's the matter? I've never seen you

like this before.

I don't know. I just, uh, I just

feel guilty when I'm not with Tommy.

That's because

you're a good mother.

But you can't be everywhere

all of the times.

Hey, guys. Oh!

How is it going?

We're good.

I was]ust wondering if I could steal

Jess away from you.

Salty's dying

to tatk to her.

We're kind of in the middle

of something right now.

No, no, it's okay.

I-I should circulate.

Hey, just for the record,

I'm not interested.

Yo, what the f***?

Wind's dropped down on us.

It's not dropped,

it's gone.

This is crazy.

You ever seen this before?

Yeah, yeah. Just not

quite so sudden.

Are we okay to get home?

There is no wind.

Yeah, yeah. We got an engine.

It's not a problem.

It's just, it's weird.

Greg?

Is that normal?

Okay, I'm f***ing freaked,

what the f***.

Triangle to coast guard. Over.

Triangle to coast guard. Over.

Coast guard, go ahead. Over.

We've just gone from seven knots to absolute

zero. You've got anything unusual? Over?

Nothing showing up. Over.

It's darkening up pretty quick out here.

Looks like an electrical storm. Over.

Help me. Please.

Can you hear me?

Help me.

Please, help me.

Killing everyone. They're

dead. They're all dead.

We hear you. What's your

position? Over.

Distressed caller, we hear you.

What are your coordinates? Over.

Coast guard, did you hear a distress call?

We're not getting it anymore. Over.

Distressed caller, make another

transmission. What is your position?

Greg?

Get below deck now.

Get the life jackets.

Out it. Out the sail.

Vic, get the main sail down.

Get it down.

Vic!

No!

Get back.

Jess, take my hand.

Grab on.

Heather!

Grab on.

Heather!

Vic!

Jess.

Are you okay?

All right.

Downey?

Are you guys okay?
