00:00:00A great poet once said that all the secrets of the oceans can be found in just one drop of water.
00:00:07Now I don't know if that's true or not, but I do know that the ocean holds more than just a few secrets.
00:00:14And one summer, I discovered one that would change my life forever.
00:00:30Your mom and I used to come here all the time.
00:00:34Really?
00:00:35I, uh, your mom loved the Central Coast.
00:00:40She would come stare at the water for hours and hours.
00:00:48Your mom only met your grandpa once.
00:00:50I can tell you he liked her a lot more than he liked me, that's for sure.
00:00:55What about grandma? Do they get along?
00:00:58Your mom never met your grandmother.
00:01:00Heck, I never met your grandmother.
00:01:03Like, never ever? You just don't remember?
00:01:07You know, I asked your grandfather about her, but, um...
00:01:12He didn't like to talk about her much.
00:01:16Listen, Rye, I know this move's gonna be tough for you.
00:01:21You know, leaving your friends, leaving your school.
00:01:25I get that.
00:01:29You know, as grumpy as your grandfather is, we're the only family he's got.
00:01:39He needs us right now, as much as he would hate to admit that.
00:01:43I'm gonna miss San Diego, too.
00:01:48But...
00:01:51You're gonna love Santa Carla.
00:01:54I promise.
00:01:55No, you are not singing opera right now.
00:02:09Please stop.
00:02:10Santa Carla.
00:02:11Santa Carla.
00:02:12Please stop.
00:02:13Hey!
00:02:14Okay, don't text and drive, ever.
00:02:15When you're older, do not text and drive.
00:02:17Do you understand?
00:02:1999 cartons of milk on the wall.
00:02:2199 cartons of milk.
00:02:22If one of those cartons happened to fall.
00:02:23Pass it around.
00:02:24Oh, I don't know that part.
00:02:25How do you not know this song?
00:02:26Yeah, you know, opera.
00:02:27Well, we used to actually, when we were younger, we used to sing it with beer.
00:02:32But you're not quite legal yet, Rye.
00:02:33So, we won't be doing that.
00:02:34Okay.
00:02:35Check it out.
00:02:36Santa Carla.
00:02:37Santa Carla.
00:02:38Gorgeous.
00:02:39Huh?
00:02:40How far to his house?
00:02:41Almost there.
00:02:42Why?
00:02:43Yeah.
00:02:44Oh, man.
00:02:45Probably not.
00:02:46Nice.
00:02:47Yeah.
00:02:48Can you help?
00:02:49Yeah, I'll be the same.
00:02:50Oh, man.
00:02:51Oh, man.
00:02:52Oh, this is just one-and-從 the park.
00:02:53Yeah, it's good.
00:02:54Oh, man.
00:02:55And—you know.
00:02:56—yeah, you know opera.
00:02:57Yeah, you know opera.
00:02:58We used to actually—when we were younger, we used to sing it with beer.
00:02:59But you're not quite legal yet, Rye, so, we won't be doing that.
00:03:01Okay.
00:03:02Check it out.
00:03:03Santa Carla.
00:03:04Gorgeous.
00:03:05Huh?
00:03:06How far to his house?
00:03:07Almost there.
00:03:10Yo, Jake.
00:03:18Matty?
00:03:21Hey, man.
00:03:22What happened to you?
00:03:24You know, I haven't meaning to come back sooner.
00:03:27I just got super busy.
00:03:29No, I mean, you got old.
00:03:30Very funny.
00:03:31Very funny.
00:03:32You know, you're not a spring chicken yourself.
00:03:35Oh, come on.
00:03:36I think I make middle-aged look pretty good.
00:03:38You must be Ryan.
00:03:40I've heard good things.
00:03:41Really?
00:03:42Where?
00:03:44Well, you know, your old man and me,
00:03:46we get to talking when we're out on the ocean.
00:03:48That is when he feels like talking.
00:03:50Oh, where is he?
00:03:51Is he up at the house?
00:03:52No, he's right where he always is.
00:03:55Working on the engine.
00:03:56Oh, man.
00:03:56He just got out of the hospital.
00:03:57He's supposed to be resting.
00:03:59Yeah, well, maybe he'll listen to you.
00:04:02Hey, I'll let you go.
00:04:03All right, buddy.
00:04:04Be good.
00:04:04Bye, sweetheart.
00:04:05Bye.
00:04:06Good meeting you.
00:04:06Good meeting you.
00:04:07Jay, get all those traps offloaded yet?
00:04:21Hey, pop.
00:04:26Still taking it easy, I see.
00:04:27What day is it?
00:04:32What day is it?
00:04:33What day is it?
00:04:35Uh, Tuesday.
00:04:35It's Tuesday.
00:04:39You're early.
00:04:40Uh, yeah, sorry about that.
00:04:43Uh, traffic was light.
00:04:47I see the old girl is still seaworthy.
00:04:51Speaking of old girls, you remember Ryan?
00:04:53Last time you saw her, she was barely walking and talking.
00:04:58Not that she does much of the ladder anymore.
00:05:01Hi!
00:05:01Hi!
00:05:04Well, I expect you want to know where to put your stuff.
00:05:07Oh, it's good to see you.
00:05:17Yeah, that's your room right there.
00:05:20Right here.
00:05:22Oh, it's beautiful.
00:05:25I really like the color.
00:05:30I needed a fresh coat of paint anyway.
00:05:32This mural is so pretty.
00:05:40Friend of mine did that.
00:05:43Well, I really like it.
00:05:46Right.
00:05:48Settle them.
00:05:49What's the matter?
00:06:07You don't like your fish?
00:06:12I guess I'm just not that hungry.
00:06:14Well, it says they don't blame you.
00:06:17It's not local.
00:06:19Heck, it's not even from the ocean.
00:06:21They bring it in frozen from some farm somewhere.
00:06:26You know, it's gotten to the point where you can't put any fresh food on your table anymore.
00:06:31It's like, no.
00:06:32I can't even remember the last time that I caught anything edible around here.
00:06:36Dad, listen, about that, I think you should listen to your doctors and take a little break from fishing.
00:06:45Just for a little while.
00:06:48I think you should take it easy.
00:06:50Take it easy for a little while.
00:06:53Okay, you know, and hey, why don't you let me try my luck at it, all right?
00:06:58You?
00:06:59Yeah.
00:06:59All right, while you rest up and get well.
00:07:02I thought you were here to help me.
00:07:06Well, I am.
00:07:08We are here to help you.
00:07:10Yeah.
00:07:11Well, then help me already.
00:07:13I mean, you've been here five minutes and already you're telling me what to do.
00:07:17That kind of help I don't need.
00:07:19Dad, listen, you've got to rest up a little bit.
00:07:22Yeah, I can take it easy when I'm dead.
00:07:26Well, if you keep at this pace, you will be.
00:07:29You know what my doctor said?
00:07:30He said, take aspirin.
00:07:33I got aspirin.
00:07:36We put out first thing in the morning.
00:07:38I suggest that you get some rest.
00:07:41My son.
00:07:45You do not have to finish that.
00:07:48I have a feeling I'd better get used to it.
00:07:50All right.
00:08:20Ryan!
00:08:29Hey, Dad.
00:08:31Whoa.
00:08:32The old man doesn't whip out the paintbrush for just anyone.
00:08:36Oh, so you're saying he's not always this cheery?
00:08:38No, you caught him on a good day.
00:08:40What are all these?
00:08:42Uh, moms.
00:08:43Yeah.
00:08:44Huh, the Fisher King.
00:08:47You know what it's about?
00:08:50Oh, you have to read it.
00:08:52Uh, you know what? Reading's not really my thing. Why don't you give me the CliffsNotes version?
00:08:56I can't do that, but how about I give you the plot?
00:08:59It's about a wounded ruler whose kingdom slowly but surely is becoming a barren wasteland.
00:09:07And since he can no longer leave the castle to fish, his son has to fill his shoes.
00:09:12Are you messing with me?
00:09:14No, oddly enough.
00:09:17What happens at the end?
00:09:18Oh, well, I can't tell you that. No spoilers. We'll just have to read it and find out.
00:09:25Oh, man. Why did your mom inscribe this to you?
00:09:31Oh, um...
00:09:33The hospital?
00:09:38About a week before.
00:09:39Oh, dude.
00:09:48Oh, yeah.
00:09:55Oh, well, there was a kid.
00:10:05And no one's here.
00:10:28Give air on the corner, food, have fun, be home by six.
00:10:35Give air on the corner, food, have fun, be home by six.
00:11:05Give air on the corner, food, have fun, be home by six.
00:11:10Give air on the corner, food, have fun, be home by eight.
00:11:14Give air on the corner, food, have fun, be home by six.
00:11:20Oh, my God.
00:11:50Oh, my God.
00:12:20It's okay, it's okay.
00:12:30I got you, I got you.
00:12:35I, I got you.
00:12:38Oh, my gosh, come here.
00:12:39It's okay, it's okay.
00:12:40Wait, stop.
00:12:41Wait, no, stop.
00:12:42Come back.
00:12:43Stop, I can help you.
00:12:44No, no, no, no, no, wait.
00:12:52No, where'd it go?
00:12:53No, where'd it go?
00:12:53No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:13:15Hey, so how do you like our little town?
00:13:17It's all right, I guess.
00:13:23You all right?
00:13:28Dad, I lost my locket today.
00:13:31What?
00:13:32Where?
00:13:35Down at the docks.
00:13:36I don't even know what happened.
00:13:38The docks?
00:13:39That's no place for a girl your age.
00:13:41It's too dangerous down there.
00:13:43Your grandfather's right, kiddo.
00:13:44What's the big deal?
00:13:46Anyways, it's just the water,
00:13:47and it's not like I don't know how to swim, Dad.
00:13:49No, it's still the same.
00:13:51You should only go down there
00:13:52if you're with your grandfather or I, okay?
00:13:54Yeah.
00:13:57Fine.
00:13:57All right, why don't you go wash up?
00:13:59Dinner's almost ready.
00:14:03Pick this.
00:14:05Put that on the plate.
00:14:06But don't do it.
00:14:06It's hot.
00:14:07Okay.
00:14:07Okay.
00:14:27Hey, Dad.
00:14:49Yeah.
00:14:51Why would someone set a net at the docks?
00:14:53Um, they wouldn't.
00:14:58They would.
00:15:00If you want to catch something big.
00:15:02Oh, Dad, please, don't go on about this.
00:15:05Go on about what?
00:15:06Trust me, you don't want to know.
00:15:08There's a reason why there ain't no more fish around here.
00:15:12Dad, come on.
00:15:13Let's not fill our head with crazy fisherman tails, okay?
00:15:16Come on, let me ask you, then.
00:15:17How many fish did we catch today?
00:15:20None is how many, and you know why.
00:15:22Don't say it.
00:15:24Mermaids.
00:15:25He said it.
00:15:26Okay, look.
00:15:27Mermaids.
00:15:28Uh, Dad, listen, it has, it's the dolphins.
00:15:33It's the seals, okay?
00:15:34It's not the mermaids.
00:15:35No, I know, I know, but it's both, okay?
00:15:40I know you think I'm just a crazy old man, but I don't.
00:15:45But I know.
00:15:48Mermaids.
00:15:49Mm-hmm.
00:15:50Dad, she's 12.
00:16:01I don't need you filling her head with your tall tales of mermaids, or sirens, or vampires,
00:16:06or God knows what.
00:16:07What would you know about it?
00:16:09I mean, you left her years ago, when the cohen got tough.
00:16:12You ain't been here.
00:16:13Yeah, well, we're here now, okay?
00:16:14And I'm asking you.
00:16:15No, you can't hide her from the truth forever.
00:16:17I can't, I won't.
00:16:19I believe that you're coming, maybe.
00:16:20I don't need her.
00:16:21I don't need her.
00:16:28I don't need her.
00:16:33I don't need her.
00:16:34I don't need her.
00:16:36I don't need her.
00:17:11Ryan, you all right in there?
00:17:25Ryan, are you okay?
00:17:27I'm just taking a bath.
00:17:30All right, well, you've been in there for a while.
00:17:31I just wanted to make sure.
00:17:33I'm fine, Dad.
00:17:35Really, I'm okay.
00:17:36Thanks.
00:17:37Okay.
00:17:41Ten minutes?
00:17:44What?
00:17:44All right.
00:17:55MUSIC PLAYS
00:18:25OK, it has to be here somewhere.
00:18:53Hello?
00:18:55Is someone there?
00:19:02If you're the girl I saw yesterday, I won't hurt you.
00:19:06I promise.
00:19:09I just want to be your friend.
00:19:13I am crazy.
00:19:15It must be.
00:19:17Absolutely crazy.
00:19:20I think this is yours.
00:19:26Oh my gosh.
00:19:29I thought I lost it.
00:19:33Wait.
00:19:34Didn't you have a tail?
00:19:37You can't walk with a tail.
00:19:44Well, thank you.
00:19:46So, so much.
00:19:49Thank you for helping me yesterday.
00:19:51Of course.
00:19:54So you're a merm?
00:19:56Coral.
00:19:57My name is Coral.
00:19:59Oh, um, I'm Ryan.
00:20:06It's called a handshake.
00:20:11I have to go.
00:20:16My mom's calling me.
00:20:17I don't hear anything.
00:20:25Close your eyes and listen.
00:20:27It's beautiful.
00:20:51It's beautiful.
00:20:51Um, one more thing?
00:20:59Yeah?
00:21:02Don't tell anyone about what you saw.
00:21:05You promise?
00:21:07I promise.
00:21:09But what did I see?
00:21:10You do have a tail.
00:21:18Coral, wait.
00:21:19Come back.
00:21:20There's so many things I want to ask you.
00:21:22Hi.
00:21:43Hey.
00:21:44How was your day?
00:21:45It was great.
00:21:47Just, uh, rode my bike around town.
00:21:50Oh, well, you, uh, found your locket, so that is something.
00:22:01Yes.
00:22:02That is something.
00:22:03That is definitely something.
00:22:06And it is the funniest something.
00:22:08It turns out it was right here the whole time, and I didn't do anything.
00:22:18Fine, fine, fine.
00:22:19You got me.
00:22:20It was down at the lower docks, where I knew it was.
00:22:23So, should I punish you for lying to me or for disobeying my orders?
00:22:27Dad, you cannot punish me more.
00:22:28This whole situation is punishment enough.
00:22:33All right.
00:22:34Fine.
00:22:35But no more lying, and no more going down to those docks unsupervised, okay?
00:22:39Deal.
00:22:40Deal?
00:22:40Deal.
00:22:41Deal?
00:22:41I said deal.
00:22:43Dad?
00:22:45Yeah?
00:22:45Good question.
00:22:46Good question.
00:22:48Um, did you ever stop to think that maybe, just maybe Grandpa isn't so crazy?
00:22:57Come on, Rye.
00:23:00You are too old to believe that sort of stuff.
00:23:02Grandpa believes.
00:23:03Yeah, well, Grandpa is a crazy old man, okay?
00:23:06Mermaids are his obsession.
00:23:08There has to be some element of truth to our myths.
00:23:11Don't you think?
00:23:11I mean, there has to be.
00:23:13You are more like your mother than you know, and you're too clever for your own good.
00:23:19Hey, buddy, you said we'd go out to dinner, just you and I.
00:23:21I don't know about you, but I am sick and tired of fish and vegetables.
00:23:25I can't do it anymore.
00:23:26I can't do it.
00:23:26Trust me, me too.
00:23:28All right, come on.
00:23:29That sounds amazing.
00:23:30I'll be down in five.
00:23:35Thanks, guys, for coming in.
00:23:36Thanks.
00:23:36Have a great night.
00:23:37Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:23:40We're, uh, we're not too late, are we?
00:23:45Uh, only by about 20 years.
00:23:48Jenna, wow, has it been that long?
00:23:50Hi.
00:23:50You look great.
00:23:53Um, please, come in.
00:23:55Sit down.
00:23:57Well, hi.
00:23:58Hi.
00:23:59Aren't you just the prettiest thing?
00:24:00Thanks.
00:24:01What's your name?
00:24:01Ryan.
00:24:02Ryan.
00:24:03She, uh, gets her looks from her mom.
00:24:05Yes, clearly.
00:24:06And, uh, and her brains, too.
00:24:08Wow, she sounds like quite a woman.
00:24:12She was.
00:24:13She, uh, she passed away.
00:24:17I am so sorry, Matt.
00:24:19Yeah, it's all right.
00:24:20It's been a little while now.
00:24:25Well, it's, uh, really nice to meet you, Ryan.
00:24:27Yeah, you too.
00:24:28I'm Jenna.
00:24:29I'm an old friend of your father's.
00:24:32Anyway, I'm going to leave you guys alone with the minis for a couple minutes.
00:24:35Okay.
00:24:37So, uh, you know what you want?
00:24:40What am I thinking?
00:24:41What am I thinking right now?
00:24:42I am thinking, I'm thinking that you and her used to be a lot more than just old friends.
00:24:46That's what I'm thinking right now.
00:24:48All right.
00:24:48Have I told you lately that you're too clever for your own good?
00:24:51Oh, there is no way you were getting off the hook that easy.
00:24:54I need details.
00:24:55Just pick something to eat, okay?
00:24:56Just pick something because she's coming back.
00:24:58Just pick something.
00:24:58She's too fast.
00:24:58I'm not ready.
00:24:59Please, just pick something.
00:25:00Anything?
00:25:00Okay, okay, okay.
00:25:01Hi.
00:25:03Hi.
00:25:04So, what can I get you?
00:25:06Uh, I would like a strawberry cupcake and a vanilla milkshake, please.
00:25:12Okay.
00:25:12For dinner?
00:25:13No, no.
00:25:14Daddy, you said anything?
00:25:16You know what?
00:25:17We will have two of those.
00:25:21Two cupcakes and milkshakes coming right up.
00:25:24Okay, she's gone again.
00:25:26So, details now, details later.
00:25:27Shut up.
00:25:28Shut up.
00:25:37So, how was it?
00:25:39So good.
00:25:40Without a doubt, best meal I've had since we've gotten here.
00:25:43Wow.
00:25:44When did you guys get in town?
00:25:46Uh, we got back a few days ago.
00:25:51How long are you staying?
00:25:53Um, my dad is sort of having some, uh, health problems, so we're here indefinitely.
00:25:59Oh, I'm sorry about your dad.
00:26:01But, um, I hope I get to see more of you guys around.
00:26:04You can count on it.
00:26:08Okay.
00:26:09Wasn't awkward at all, right?
00:26:13So, before Mom, you and Jenna were...
00:26:16Close.
00:26:17Yeah.
00:26:19Uh, and what exactly happened there?
00:26:21I mean, Dad, why did you leave?
00:26:23Oh, you are really curious.
00:26:24Yeah, I am.
00:26:26Look, I just had to get out of this place, okay?
00:26:29I had to try something new.
00:26:30And you're sure this doesn't have anything to do with the fact that Grandpa believes mermaids are driving the fish out of the water?
00:26:37Grandpa believes a lot of things.
00:26:39And think about it.
00:26:41Nobody's ever agreed with him.
00:26:43No wonder he's so cold and grumpy.
00:26:45He used to not be so grumpy.
00:26:47What happened?
00:26:48Look, all this mermaid business didn't help, but, uh, this town was thriving once.
00:26:55Things dried up, everything went south, the fish left, people left, but not your grandfather.
00:26:59He stuck it out through thick and thin.
00:27:03Look, I-I know he seems like the grumpiest guy in the world.
00:27:06Yeah, yeah, he does.
00:27:07But he does love you.
00:27:09And I can tell that he sees your grandma in you.
00:27:14Really?
00:27:30Ryan?
00:27:32Mm-mm.
00:27:35Ryan!
00:27:36Mm-mm.
00:27:38Oh, come on, get up.
00:27:40Up!
00:27:41Really?
00:27:44Grandpa, it is five in the morning.
00:27:48Why?
00:27:49Because in this family, we earn our keep.
00:27:51Come on.
00:27:56All right, buddy.
00:27:57Thanks.
00:27:59All right, we'll be back by dinner.
00:28:00Have fun.
00:28:01Yeah, loads of fun.
00:28:03Don't worry, buddy, we'll be good.
00:28:06All right.
00:28:07Now, you see these holes right here?
00:28:10Right?
00:28:10Even if there was fish to catch, we're not catching them with these.
00:28:14So, I need you to go to that storage bin right there and find some lines so we can pass these up, okay?
00:28:20Got it?
00:28:20Okay.
00:28:21All right.
00:28:21Ryan!
00:28:32Mr. Ryan!
00:28:34Carl?
00:28:36What are you doing here?
00:28:37I wanted to see you again.
00:28:39I felt bad about leaving so fast the other day.
00:28:42What if somebody sees you?
00:28:45Don't worry.
00:28:45I've cut holes in all the nets around here.
00:28:48That ought to keep them busy for a while.
00:28:51Huh.
00:28:52That'll keep them busy for a while for sure.
00:28:56So, that's what you were doing the other day?
00:29:00Maybe.
00:29:02Hey, Ryan.
00:29:03You found that line yet?
00:29:05Just a second, Jay.
00:29:06I'll be back in a minute.
00:29:08Wait.
00:29:09You're one of them?
00:29:12Uh, no.
00:29:14Jay is just my dad's friend who needed help, and I'm...
00:29:17Your father is a fisherman?
00:29:19Well, my grandpa too, actually.
00:29:21Well, they all are.
00:29:22But...
00:29:23But the fishermen hunt my kind.
00:29:26Well, not my family.
00:29:27Or Jay either.
00:29:28He's sweet, I swear.
00:29:29And he's not gonna hurt you.
00:29:32Are they sweet like you?
00:29:36Ryan!
00:29:36The line!
00:29:38Coming!
00:29:41Okay, look, I have to go fix these nets, but I promise I won't do a very good job, and
00:29:48I should be done soon, so can you meet me at the lower dock?
00:29:51Sounds good.
00:29:53Okay.
00:29:53Okay.
00:29:54See you then.
00:29:55Bye.
00:29:56Hey!
00:29:58What in the world has taken you so long?
00:29:59I have been looking everywhere, and I just cannot seem to find it.
00:30:05Really?
00:30:06Mm-hmm.
00:30:08Wow, you must have been looking real hard.
00:30:10Oh, you meant inside the green thingy.
00:30:16You knucklehead.
00:30:17Think fast.
00:30:19All good.
00:30:20Come on.
00:30:26Coral?
00:30:29Coral?
00:30:29That is absolutely amazing.
00:30:41It is?
00:30:43Are you kidding?
00:30:45People would freak if they knew you could do that.
00:30:50And they look just like real legs.
00:30:52They are real legs, silly.
00:30:55What did you expect?
00:30:56Okay, I don't know, but certainly not this.
00:30:58How do you do that?
00:31:01My people have always had the power to shift from sea to land.
00:31:06So long as we're not out of the water for too long, that is.
00:31:10What happens?
00:31:12Then we can't go back.
00:31:13So, what now?
00:31:20I don't know.
00:31:21I've never had a human friend before.
00:31:24What do humans do?
00:31:27I'll show you.
00:31:28Come on.
00:31:29You sure?
00:31:30Of course.
00:31:31Yeah, yeah.
00:31:32You'll love it.
00:31:32I promise.
00:31:33Come on.
00:31:34If you say so.
00:31:35I'll show you.
00:32:05I'll show you.
00:32:36So, what's it like?
00:32:39Out there.
00:32:43Like home.
00:32:45You know, I think my grandpa feels that way too.
00:32:48Just, I don't know, just more at home out of the water.
00:32:52But he's getting old now, so we moved back here to try and keep him on dry land.
00:32:58Well, as much as possible, anyways.
00:33:01How's that going so far?
00:33:03Not too great, actually.
00:33:08Do you like it?
00:33:12What?
00:33:12Living on land?
00:33:13Uh, I don't know.
00:33:16I guess I didn't really thought about it.
00:33:19I've never seen very much of it.
00:33:24Tell you what.
00:33:26I'll show you some of my world.
00:33:28And I'll show you some of mine.
00:33:31Okay.
00:33:40Here, I'm coming.
00:33:41Come on in, Ryan.
00:33:45Okay.
00:33:45It is absolutely freezing.
00:33:51It's perfect.
00:33:56Oh, wow.
00:33:57So, like, you can breathe underwater?
00:34:02No.
00:34:02We're not fish, silly.
00:34:04Oh.
00:34:05Think of us like dolphins.
00:34:07We come up for air, we can just hold our breath for a really long time.
00:34:11Oh, wow.
00:34:13Yeah, I guess that would make sense.
00:34:16My dad can hold his breath for a really long time, too.
00:34:18That's why I got into freediving when he was younger.
00:34:21Apparently I can hold my breath for pretty long, too.
00:34:24Yeah?
00:34:25One of these days we'll have to find out just how long.
00:34:29Yeah, I like that.
00:34:31You know, your family seems to have an affinity for the water.
00:34:34Maybe you're not such landlubbers after all.
00:34:38Ow!
00:34:40What's wrong?
00:34:41Something, something stung me!
00:34:45It's just a jellyfish!
00:34:46It's easy for you to say!
00:34:49Here.
00:34:51Get on land.
00:34:54Okay.
00:35:00Ow, it hurt so bad!
00:35:03It hurt so bad, ow!
00:35:09Ow, what are you doing?
00:35:11I can fix it.
00:35:15Trust me.
00:35:16It hurt.
00:35:20You're not too bad.
00:35:24Oh, no.
00:35:25Trust me.
00:35:26I don't want to have any answers.
00:35:27No.
00:35:28Oh, no.
00:35:29Oh, no.
00:35:29Bye.
00:35:29Ah!
00:35:30Oh, no.
00:35:31Oh, no.
00:35:32Oh, no.
00:35:33Oh, no.
00:35:35Oh, no.
00:35:37Oh, no.
00:35:37Oh, no!
00:35:38Oh, no.
00:35:39Oh, no.
00:35:39Oh, no.
00:35:39Oh, no.
00:35:40Oh, no.
00:35:40Oh, no.
00:35:42Oh, no.
00:35:42Oh, no.
00:35:43How... how did you do that?
00:35:51Did anyone ever tell you you ask a lot of questions?
00:35:56Yeah, all the time, actually.
00:36:00I don't know, it's just an energy my people have always had.
00:36:04The power to heal.
00:36:06Are you okay?
00:36:09Yeah, I'm just... I'm just tired.
00:36:15It takes a lot out of us to heal another living thing.
00:36:20Yeah, I can imagine.
00:36:23Maybe that's enough for the visitor exchange program for one day?
00:36:36Two days?
00:36:37Yep, gotta head out to deeper waters.
00:36:39What about Ryan? I can't just leave her alone for two days.
00:36:42Why not? She's perfectly capable.
00:36:44I left you longer when you were about her age.
00:36:47Yeah, I... I know.
00:36:49Look, Dad, I... I can't do that, okay?
00:36:52She's... she's just a kid.
00:36:54Okay, bring her with.
00:36:56It's time she learned how to fish anyway.
00:36:58Do her some good.
00:36:59Yeah, I'm sure she'll love it, seeing as how much she loves eating fish.
00:37:02Hey, you do what you want, okay?
00:37:03But I'm heading out first thing in the morning, with you or without you.
00:37:09Yeah, I can't do it anymore.
00:37:11Well, yeah, I know.
00:37:11No, I can't do that.
00:37:12You're a little bit of a**.
00:37:13Yeah, I can't do it.
00:37:14Good thing.
00:37:14You're a little bit of a**.
00:37:15Yeah, I got to be too scared.
00:37:16That's right.
00:37:16I can't do it.
00:37:17I can do it.
00:37:18I can't do it.
00:37:18I can't do it.
00:37:19I can do it.
00:37:19I can do it.

00:39:45Okay, well, that's kind of a tall order, but how about we start with this dress?
00:39:51Oh, human clothes.
00:39:55Yeah, I think it should fit.
00:39:57Okay, come on.
00:40:07Jay, take over.
00:40:10Keep going uphill.
00:40:14So, what are we going for?
00:40:21We're not out here to fish at all, are we?
00:40:26You know what, Jay?
00:40:27Turn the board around.
00:40:28We're going home.
00:40:28You're not in charge here.
00:40:30You want to know why there's no more fish in this bay?
00:40:32Because you and all your greedy fisherman friend fish this place bone dry.
00:40:35Oh, you think you're so smart, huh?
00:40:37You got all the answers, but you don't know anything.
00:40:40Just wait.
00:40:40You'll find out.
00:40:43You'll find out.
00:40:45What do you think?
00:40:54Does it look okay?
00:40:55Okay?
00:40:56Are you kidding?
00:40:57It looks better on you than it does on me.
00:40:59This is so fun.
00:41:00I've never tried on clothes like these before.
00:41:03I think I just figured out what we're doing today.
00:41:06What?
00:41:08Shopping.
00:41:09Yay!
00:41:11What's shopping?
00:41:13More and more clothes.
00:41:14Let's go.
00:41:23Ooh.
00:41:23How about this one?
00:41:25Are you sure?
00:41:27Of course.
00:41:28It would be great on you.
00:41:29You really think so?
00:41:30Definitely.
00:41:31Okay, I'll try it.
00:41:32Please try it.
00:41:32Please try it.
00:41:32Okay.
00:41:33Okay.
00:41:39Okay.
00:41:40Okay.
00:41:44Here we go.
00:42:47Oh, that's a cool kind of family photo.
00:42:51Oh, so do you have brothers or sisters?
00:42:55No, I'm an only child.
00:42:57Me too.
00:42:57Oh, my father and grandfather were both taken by the sea a long time ago, around the time
00:43:06I was born.
00:43:07I'm really sorry, Coral.
00:43:11That's life, I guess.
00:43:13No, it's just my mother and grandmother and the rest of our people.
00:43:16I lost my mom about eight years ago.
00:43:27I get it.
00:43:28I believe that wherever our loved ones go after they die, they can still see us.
00:43:40Me too.
00:43:41Oh, I like the green hair on this one.
00:43:49Is that what you think we do?
00:43:51Sit on a rock brushing our hair all day?
00:43:53Actually, most people don't even think you exist, but...
00:43:56Oh.
00:43:57How does it not get tangled?
00:43:59Teach me your ways.
00:44:00It gets tangled.
00:44:01So, do you have any legends about us?
00:44:06Well, I wouldn't call them legends, exactly.
00:44:11Why don't we listen to some of your music or any games or anything?
00:44:14Tell me.
00:44:19My people aren't exactly allowed to interact with humans.
00:44:25In fact, it's strictly forbidden.
00:44:30Forbidden?
00:44:31That's just the way it's been for centuries.
00:44:36My grandmother always warned me that humans can be selfish and cruel.
00:44:42But not you, Ryan.
00:44:44In fact, if they only got to know you, maybe they'd change their minds.
00:44:52Then why can't we do that?
00:44:53Why can't you take me there and we can show them that our people can coexist
00:44:56and not only coexist, but be friends?
00:44:58I want that, but that's just it, Ryan.
00:45:03If I bring you there, they might not let us be friends anymore.
00:45:09They're going to find out sooner or later anyways.
00:45:15I feel like it's better to try before they ground you.
00:45:19Is that different underwater?
00:45:21And there are different punishment rules?
00:45:23A little bit.
00:45:26Can we?
00:45:29Can we try?
00:45:30Look, say we were to do this, how would you get to the island?
00:45:41Your dad could maybe do it as a free diver, but...
00:45:44But you'd have to hold your breath for a really long time.
00:45:49Like how long?
00:45:51Like really long.
00:45:59Practice can make it perfect.
00:46:00Just over ten minutes.
00:46:09That's really good, Ryan.
00:46:12Well, for a human anyway.
00:46:14I can do better.
00:46:15I know I can.
00:46:16Can we go again?
00:46:18Okay.
00:46:18Okay.
00:46:30This ought to do it.
00:46:40What's that?
00:46:41It's called a wetsuit.
00:46:43Scuba divers and surfers use them.
00:46:47Why do you need a suit to get wet?
00:46:49It keeps you warm, silly.
00:46:51You really think you'll need it?
00:46:54Let's just say you and I have very different concepts of what constitutes cold water.
00:46:58Uh, can I help you girls with anything?
00:47:01Oh, um, I'm good.
00:47:03Uh, hi.
00:47:06Hi.
00:47:07Um, I'm Zach.
00:47:09I'm Coral.
00:47:10Oh, duh, hi.
00:47:11It's a handshake.
00:47:15Hi, I'm Ryan.
00:47:17I'm gonna be over here looking at things.
00:47:21Okay, uh, if you want to try on that wetsuit, there's a tension room right there.
00:47:25Even better.
00:47:28So, uh, you new around town?
00:47:33I mean, I really haven't seen you around before.
00:47:36My family's been here for years.
00:47:38I guess I don't get out much.
00:47:41But that's been changing lately.
00:47:44Okay, right on.
00:47:45That's cool.
00:47:47Uh, anyway, there's this beach barbecue thing.
00:47:51And you should totally come.
00:47:54You and your friends.
00:47:57Um, yeah, I guess we'll be there?
00:48:02Yep.
00:48:02We'll be there.
00:48:03Okay.
00:48:04Awesome.
00:48:04Awesome.
00:48:05Uh, well, if you need anything else, just let me know.
00:48:08Okay, see ya.
00:48:09Just, you know, blowin' around.
00:48:10Oh.
00:48:11Oh.
00:48:13It's good.
00:48:14It's, uh, it's all fine.
00:48:16Uh, I'll see ya.
00:48:17See ya.
00:48:20Oh my god, I've never talked to a human boy before.
00:48:23You like him, don't you?
00:48:26Stop it!
00:48:27What?
00:48:28There's no kissing in the sea?
00:48:29No mer-boy?
00:48:30You know what?
00:48:30Why don't you try this thing on already?
00:48:32We gotta start our trial run.
00:48:34Changing the subject.
00:48:35We definitely like him.
00:48:37And hold your horses.
00:48:39Hey, Ryan.
00:48:41Yes?
00:48:42What's a beach barbecue, by the way?
00:48:45They're not gonna hurt the beach, are they?
00:48:46Go.
00:48:48Okay.
00:48:57You ready for this?
00:48:59Yeah.
00:49:00Then follow me?
00:49:08Hey, wait up!
00:49:09Bye.
00:49:18Bye.
00:50:49Hey.
00:50:50Where's your friend?
00:50:51I thought we were going to make cupcakes.
00:50:53Oh, she had to go home.
00:50:54Oh.
00:50:57I'm still up for it, though.
00:51:00Great.
00:51:01Come on.
00:51:16Come on.
00:51:19A little light reading?
00:51:27Yep.
00:51:30Hey, um...
00:51:31You don't...
00:51:33You don't believe all this stuff, do you?
00:51:37I don't know, man.
00:51:41I never used to.
00:51:44But you see things when you're out in the ocean.
00:51:48Things you can't always explain.
00:51:51Come on.
00:51:51I think you've been out here too long.
00:51:55Yeah, maybe.
00:51:58Or maybe there's more to life than we know.
00:52:01The ocean's a big part of that.
00:52:04Ryan said the same thing.
00:52:08Smart kid.
00:52:09You can dump that in.
00:52:19Straight in the middle?
00:52:20Uh-huh.
00:52:21Very good.
00:52:22Mix it up a little bit.
00:52:27Nice.
00:52:28So I'll pour this water in while you're mixing.
00:52:31Stir, stir.
00:52:32Just keep going.
00:52:34Very good.
00:52:36And then...
00:52:37Put just a...
00:52:39To bring out the flavor.
00:52:45Are you still with me, sweetie?
00:52:48Oh, yeah.
00:52:49Sorry.
00:52:49I just spaced for a minute.
00:52:52What do you think about your dad and your grandpa?
00:52:54I'm sure they're fine.
00:52:56They know what they're doing.
00:52:56No, it's...
00:52:58It's not them.
00:53:01Your new friend?
00:53:04Sort of.
00:53:09Hey, Jenna.
00:53:13Can I ask you something?
00:53:16Anything.
00:53:17And promise you won't laugh?
00:53:19I clasp my heart.
00:53:20Have you ever seen a...
00:53:28Mermaid?
00:53:34A mermaid, you say?
00:53:37Yeah.
00:53:38It really sounds crazy.
00:53:40Once.
00:53:43Maybe.
00:53:43Just, um...
00:53:46Maybe once I did.
00:53:48A very long time ago.
00:53:50Really?
00:53:51What do you remember?
00:53:53Well, I was...
00:53:55About your age.
00:53:58And...
00:53:59I was swimming in the secluded cove off Morrow Beach.
00:54:03It's not far from here.
00:54:04I used to love to dive.
00:54:06As deep as I could go.
00:54:08Just explore the exotic ocean world down there.
00:54:14And that's when I saw her.
00:54:17This beautiful woman with hair unlike anything I've ever seen before.
00:54:23Way beneath the surface.
00:54:24And then, as quickly as she appeared, she was gone.
00:54:36Anyway.
00:54:39It was probably just some childhood fantasy, I guess.
00:54:44An illusion.
00:54:45It wasn't an illusion, Jenna.
00:54:51Mermaids are real.
00:54:54I was just writing you a note.
00:55:21Are you hungry?
00:55:22There's cupcakes in the fridge.
00:55:23They turned out very well.
00:55:25Yum.
00:55:26Just do me a favor and don't tell your dad that you ate cupcakes for breakfast.
00:55:30And since we are doing this whole, uh, keeping secrets thing,
00:55:34can I have a little chat about you-know-what?
00:55:36Be one of those.
00:55:38My lips are sealed.
00:55:39Good.
00:55:40Because I don't really think my dad needs to know about that one either.
00:55:43Big plans for the day?
00:55:45Actually, yes.
00:55:46Coral and I are going to head down to the beach.
00:55:49Coral.
00:55:49Is that your new friend?
00:55:52Yeah.
00:55:53All right.
00:55:54Have fun.
00:55:56Just don't swim too far from the shore.
00:55:58I will do my best.
00:56:00Hey, Zach!
00:56:09Why are you-what are you doing?
00:56:11Hey, Coral.
00:56:12Are y'all, uh, doing anything today?
00:56:14Because I can, like, uh-
00:56:15Oh!
00:56:15Oh!
00:56:16Oh!
00:56:16You know, uh, I-I'll just see you all around.
00:56:33You did great yesterday, but today we're going to stay under even longer.
00:56:38You ready?
00:56:39Um, I don't actually have to wait 45 minutes after eating, do I?
00:56:45That's just a myth.
00:56:46Well, so were you until a few days ago.
00:56:49Come on, this will be fun!
00:56:51Okay, okay.
00:56:52Okay.
00:56:52Bye, bye.
00:57:20Bye!
00:57:20Bye!
00:57:21Bye!
00:57:22Bye!
00:57:22Bye!
00:57:22Bye!
00:57:22Bye!
00:57:22Where are we, Coral?
00:57:44We're at the outskirts of the island.
00:57:47There. Just a little while longer.
00:57:49You're going to love it, I promise.
00:57:52You made it.
00:58:20Um...
00:58:21Coral?
00:58:23This place is deserted.
00:58:26What is this? Why did you bring me here?
00:58:29This is my people's greatest secret.
00:58:32Hidden away from humanity in plain sight for centuries.
00:58:36What?
00:58:36Your hand has so many powers!
00:58:47What have you done, Coral?
00:58:55Mother, I wanted you to meet my friend.
00:58:58My very best friend, Ryan.
00:59:00Hi!
00:59:01You know better than to bring a human here.
00:59:05It goes against our most ancient and sacred laws.
00:59:08But we can co-exist with humans.
00:59:10She's the proof.
00:59:13She's been showing me their ways, and I've been showing her ours.
00:59:17This means nothing except you've put us in grave danger.
00:59:20She may bring others.
00:59:24No, she would never do that.
00:59:27I promise she can be trusted.
00:59:29I wouldn't do anything to hurt you, and I would never tell anyone.
00:59:31I promise.
00:59:32I promise.
00:59:33I promise.
00:59:34Our entire survival depends on your kind believing us to be nothing more than myth.
00:59:40You wouldn't want to jeopardize that, now would you, Ryan?
00:59:42I would never.
00:59:48Then you may be able to.
00:59:55Stay here.
01:00:00I shouldn't have come here.
01:00:01I've gotten you in trouble.
01:00:03It's not me I'm worried about.
01:00:09Thalea wants to see you.
01:00:12Both of you.
01:00:18So, who's Thalea?
01:00:20Our queen.
01:00:23And my grandmother.
01:00:25Your grandmother's the queen!
01:00:29That is so cool.
01:00:38Wow, this is amazing.
01:00:42This is amazing.
01:00:44Tell me what I told your mom.
01:00:49No, you mustn't speak in here unless you're spoken to first.
01:00:53Shhh.
01:01:05Tell me what I told your mom.
01:01:06No.
01:01:07You mustn't speak in here unless you're spoken to first.
01:01:10Shhh.
01:01:10Come closer, child.
01:01:19Come closer, child.
01:01:23Not you, Coral.
01:01:26Her.
01:01:26How did you come to be here, child?
01:01:45Coral showed me the way.
01:01:50But how?
01:01:51You did not come by boat.
01:01:56We swam from the mainland.
01:02:01You have been exposed to our world.
01:02:05Your knowledge of our existence has put my people in danger.
01:02:09I mean no harm.
01:02:10It's not her fault.
01:02:12I was the one who took...
01:02:13Silence.
01:02:16What's done is done.
01:02:18For this, you can never go back.
01:02:22We can be together.
01:02:26No.
01:02:28No, I would miss my family.
01:02:30I can't.
01:02:32I'm sorry, child.
01:02:34But to protect my people, it must be so.
01:02:38Don't you want to be together?
01:02:40I do, but not like this.
01:02:46I need my family, Coral.
01:02:49Just like you need yours.
01:02:51And my dad and my grandfather.
01:02:55Your family does not deserve you.
01:02:59Her grandfather.
01:03:00He's the fisherman you warned us about.
01:03:03She cannot be allowed to return.
01:03:05Is this true, child?
01:03:19Come closer.
01:03:22Closer.
01:03:27You look like him.
01:03:29It's so beautiful.
01:03:39You know him?
01:03:43Once.
01:03:46A long time ago.
01:03:49Before.
01:03:52Before.
01:03:53Before.
01:03:56Before his heart was broken.
01:03:58And he became hardened to the sea.
01:04:04And because of that, we have kept the fish away from these waters.
01:04:09To protect the ebb and flow of nature and its delicate balance.
01:04:13He and his people have overfished these waters.
01:04:16Taken.
01:04:17And not replenished.
01:04:23Please don't take me away from my family.
01:04:26Please.
01:04:28Do not cry, young one.
01:04:34All will be well.
01:04:42You will take the girl with you back to her home.
01:04:45And if she betrays her word,
01:04:49she won't.
01:04:51Will you, child?
01:04:52I promise.
01:04:57With all my heart.
01:05:00You are never to return here again.
01:05:03Or even speak of our existence.
01:05:12It is forbidden for humans and merfolk to mingle.
01:05:16Now go.
01:05:22Go.
01:05:39Ryan!
01:05:41Ryan!
01:05:42Ryan!
01:05:42Ryan!
01:05:43Ryan!
01:05:43Ryan!
01:05:44I can't believe I'm losing my best friend.
01:05:54We may be forbidden from being friends,
01:05:57but you will always be my sister.
01:06:00Coral, this means a lot to me.
01:06:16And you want a part of me to always be with you.
01:06:30Come on, Coral.
01:07:00Ahead! Dolphins!
01:07:12Where there's dolphins, there's mermaids.
01:07:14Jay, come here, take over.
01:07:17Get ready to toss the nets.
01:07:18No, no, no, Dad, no. I'm not going to let you do it, Dad.
01:07:20Would you just toss the nets?
01:07:22Dad, you're acting crazy. It's not happening. No.
01:07:25Okay, okay. I'll do it myself. Now get out of the way.
01:07:28Dad, stop.
01:07:28No, I'm going to do it by Dad.
01:07:29Oh, Jay. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:07:31Dad!
01:07:32Jay, call the Coast Guard now.
01:07:35Dad, just take it easy, okay?
01:07:37Oh, man.
01:07:38Oh.
01:07:59Goodbye.
01:08:09Be well, young one.
01:08:21Can you just put the cash in the office
01:08:22and just lock everything up in me?
01:08:28Ryan, honey, where have you been?
01:08:29Oh, my God.
01:08:30I've been looking everywhere for you.
01:08:33Sorry, I was, um, just swimming with Coral.
01:08:41What's wrong?
01:08:41Mom?
01:08:42It's your grandfather, honey.
01:08:47There's been an accident.
01:08:50Let's go.
01:08:58Are you going to be all right if I step away for a while?
01:09:01Well, yeah.
01:09:03Okay.
01:09:09So I'm just going to go lock up the cafe and I'll be back soon, okay?
01:09:13Okay.
01:09:14Your dad will be here in about 45 minutes.
01:09:16Don't go.
01:09:26Don't leave me.
01:09:33Grandpa.
01:09:39Ryan.
01:09:46Where am I?
01:09:48It's okay.
01:09:50You're in the hospital.
01:09:52What?
01:09:54You passed out, Grandpa.
01:09:56How?
01:09:58No! You need to rest!
01:10:00No! No!
01:10:02You need to rest!
01:10:06That necklace.
01:10:08Where did you get that?
01:10:12Oh, um...
01:10:14It's just something
01:10:16I bought while I was shopping.
01:10:18No, no, no.
01:10:20No, we both know that's not true.
01:10:24You've seen them, haven't you?
01:10:26Yes, you know.
01:10:36Do you know where they are?
01:10:40Grandpa, I can't.
01:10:42I made a promise and...
01:10:44You don't understand.
01:10:46Then help me too.
01:10:54It was a long, long time ago.
01:10:58I was a young man.
01:11:00Back then, fish would practically leap off the lines and into the boat.
01:11:06One day, I caught something big.
01:11:10At first, I thought it was a dolphin.
01:11:12But as I reeled it in, I saw exactly what I'd caught.
01:11:18A mermaid.
01:11:20I was immediately struck by her beauty.
01:11:22It was as if all the colors of the ocean were in her eyes.
01:11:28I was in love.
01:11:30We both were.
01:11:32We agreed.
01:11:34We had to keep our love a secret.
01:11:38I was a fisherman.
01:11:40Their worst kind of enemy.
01:11:42If people knew that mermaids were real, they would destroy them.
01:11:52That's why I promised to keep their secret.
01:11:54For a time, we were happy.
01:11:56I wanted nothing more than to be with her the rest of my life.
01:12:00But it wasn't meant to be.
01:12:02Her father had found out about us and forbid her to see me because she was to marry another.
01:12:08She told me she was also heir to her throne.
01:12:12That she couldn't betray her people.
01:12:14I pleased it with her to come back.
01:12:16I returned to the beach every day where we'd met, hoping, praying that she'd come back to me.
01:12:22And she never did.
01:12:26She never came back.
01:12:28Days turned to weeks, weeks then turned to months.
01:12:32Love turned to anger.
01:12:38So I fished.
01:12:40I set lines, laid traps, fish scouring, looking for any sign of her or her people.
01:12:48And I never saw her again.
01:12:50I never saw any of them.
01:12:52They just disappeared.
01:12:56Then, late one stormy night, I found a baby at my door.
01:13:04A son.
01:13:06She gave me a son.
01:13:10Dad.
01:13:12How could she have left me?
01:13:14How could she have abandoned me?
01:13:16Abandoned him?
01:13:18I have to know why, Ryan.
01:13:22You have to tell me where they are.
01:13:36Jay, cast off to Bowline.
01:13:46Art, what are you doing?
01:13:48Come on, move aside.
01:13:50Move aside, Jay.
01:13:52Do it.
01:13:53You're in no condition to go back out there.
01:13:54I appreciate your concern.
01:13:56Now get out of the way.
01:13:58Come on.
01:13:59I already tried it.
01:14:00Look, it's my boat.
01:14:02You either stay on, or you get off.
01:14:04Either way, I'm going.
01:14:06All right, fine.
01:14:10But I'm going with you.
01:14:12That's my chit-chit.
01:14:14Is the life raft still on board?
01:14:17Yeah, of course.
01:14:18Good.
01:14:19Why?
01:14:20Come on, cast off the Bowline.
01:14:22Oh, one second.
01:14:25All right.
01:14:48Santa Carla Hospital.
01:14:50Uh, Art Love's room, please.
01:14:52Okay.
01:14:53Uh, it appears Mr. Love has checked himself out.
01:14:56Checked himself out?
01:14:57That's impossible.
01:14:58I'm sorry, but our records show that he checked out with his granddaughter about half an hour ago.
01:15:02Okay.
01:15:03All right, thank you very much.
01:15:07Hey, I'm almost back to the hospital.
01:15:09How's your father?
01:15:10He's gone.
01:15:12Gone?
01:15:13He checked himself out.
01:15:14Ryan's with him.
01:15:15Where do you think they went?
01:15:18My guess is the doc.
01:15:20You don't think he'd go back out, do you?
01:15:22That's exactly what I think.
01:15:25Look, there's a tracker on the boat, okay?
01:15:26I'm gonna try and access it so it can tell us where they are, all right?
01:15:29I'll meet you there.
01:15:31Okay.
01:15:32We'll be right there.
01:15:33Okay.
01:15:34Yeah.
01:15:35All right.
01:15:36Well, I've contacted the Coast Guard.
01:15:39Thanks.
01:15:40Any news?
01:15:42Boat's gone.
01:15:43I tried calling Jay, but he isn't picking up.
01:15:44There's only about three hours of daylight left.
01:15:45I swear, if anything happens to Ryan, I will never forgive myself.
01:15:49She's gonna be fine.
01:15:50She's gonna be fine.
01:15:51She's strong, just like her father.
01:15:52Hey, Art.
01:15:53Yeah?
01:15:54What's our heading?
01:15:55New west towards the channel.
01:15:56The channels?
01:15:57Why?
01:15:58They're headed to the Channel Islands.
01:15:59Come on.
01:16:00Okay.
01:16:01Okay.
01:16:02Okay.
01:16:03Okay.
01:16:04Okay.
01:16:05You're not going to go to the channel money.
01:16:06What?
01:16:07There's only three hours of daylight left.
01:16:08I swear if, if anything happens to Ryan, I will never forgive myself.
01:16:09She's gonna be fine.
01:16:10She's strong, just like her father.
01:16:12Hey, Art.
01:16:13Yeah?
01:16:14What's our heading?
01:16:15New west towards the channel.
01:16:19The channels?
01:16:20Why?
01:16:21They're headed to the channel islands.
01:16:22Come on.
01:16:23Okay.
01:16:24We have three hours of daylight left.
01:16:25I swear.
01:16:26If anything happens to Ryan, I will never forgive myself.
01:16:29She made it back, okay?
01:16:43Yes.
01:16:44Coral.
01:16:47I know her friendship means a great deal to you.
01:16:51But your heart will heal in time.
01:16:56I'm going for a swim.
01:16:59I'm going for a swim.
01:17:29I'm going for a swim.
01:17:59I'm going for a swim.
01:18:14What's that?
01:18:15Up ahead of us.
01:18:17What is that?
01:18:19Hey!
01:18:20Over there!
01:18:20Look over there!
01:18:21It's a mermaid!
01:18:22It's a mermaid!
01:18:25It's a mermaid!
01:18:26It's a mermaid!
01:18:27It's caught in the net!
01:18:31It's Coral!
01:18:33Get the hook!
01:18:34Get the hook!
01:18:35Get the hook!
01:18:36Go!
01:18:37Coral!
01:18:39Please!
01:18:39Go, Michael!
01:18:40Go!
01:18:41Go!
01:18:41Please!
01:18:42Help!
01:18:43Coral!
01:18:44He'll get him!
01:18:45He'll get him!
01:18:48Get the hook off!
01:18:51Grab a hold of her!
01:18:52Get her out of that thing!
01:18:53Coral!
01:18:54Oh, God.
01:18:55Come on.
01:18:56Come on.
01:18:57It's all my fault.
01:18:58Coral?
01:18:58Good job.
01:18:59Good job.
01:19:00Good job.
01:19:01Coral, please, breathe!
01:19:03Coral, don't you die on me!
01:19:05Please!
01:19:06Breathe!
01:19:07Breathe!
01:19:07Hey, get the net off.
01:19:08Get the net off.
01:19:09Come on.
01:19:10Come on.
01:19:11Breathe, Coral!
01:19:13Coral, you can't.
01:19:14Please!
01:19:17Coral!
01:19:17Coral!
01:19:19Hold it.
01:19:27No, no, no.
01:19:33Don't hurt you.
01:19:34I'm not going to hurt you.
01:19:36Come on.
01:19:37Hey.
01:19:40Ryan, you saved me.
01:19:44I don't know.
01:19:45Maybe I had some of your power left in me from when you healed me the other day.
01:19:49But I didn't do anything.
01:19:52This had nothing to do with me.
01:19:56This power was inside you all along, Ryan.
01:20:02Hey.
01:20:03Hey.
01:20:04Come here, buddy.
01:20:06No.
01:20:07Whoa.
01:20:07Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:20:08Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:20:09Come here.
01:20:09Hey.
01:20:09Grandpa, hey.
01:20:10Grandpa.
01:20:10Grandpa.
01:20:11Grandpa.
01:20:11Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:20:12Wait.
01:20:12Wait.
01:20:13Wait.
01:20:13I just fell.
01:20:14Coral!
01:20:15Give me your hand.
01:20:16We're not strong enough, Ryan.
01:20:17We can't do it alone.
01:20:22The island.
01:20:23We have to get him to the island.
01:20:25Jay, just trust us.
01:20:26Please.
01:20:26Go, go.
01:20:27Come here.
01:20:29Whoa.
01:20:32Stay with us, Grandpa.
01:20:37Come on, buddy.
01:20:37Hang in there, buddy.
01:20:38We're doing good.
01:20:39Hey, buddy.
01:20:43You're doing good.
01:20:54Please don't leave me.
01:20:56I'm sorry.
01:20:56This is all my fault.
01:21:01I'm sorry.
01:21:02This is all my fault.
01:21:04I've brought you here.
01:21:04We shouldn't have left.
01:21:09Coral, where is everyone?
01:21:11Why aren't they coming?
01:21:16They're afraid.
01:21:22Please.
01:21:24Please, please help him.
01:21:26He's going to die.
01:21:28Daddy, stay.
01:21:29You crazy old man.
01:21:30What were you thinking?
01:21:33Sorry.
01:21:35Just take it easy, Papa, right?
01:21:37Just take it easy.
01:21:38Look, they can help him.
01:21:40I know they're here.
01:21:41And they have to.
01:21:42And they would just come out.
01:21:43Please.
01:21:45There's nothing anybody can do
01:21:46until the Coast Guard gets here.
01:21:49Can you please try?
01:21:51Okay.
01:21:51I'll do what I can.
01:21:54Stay with us, Papa.
01:22:11I can't.
01:22:13His condition is too grave.
01:22:17I'm so sorry, Ryan.
01:22:22Please, somebody.
01:22:23Please.
01:22:33What the?
01:22:47Everyone.
01:22:53Hello, my love.
01:23:16Am I dead?
01:23:17No, no.
01:23:19You're very much alive.
01:23:23I missed you so much.
01:23:30I was so anxious.
01:23:32None of that matters now.
01:23:36What?
01:23:37Would someone like to tell me what...
01:23:39What I just watched?
01:23:41They're mermaids.
01:23:44Yeah, right.
01:23:46Of course.
01:23:49I'm sorry.
01:23:50I'm sorry for breaking my promise not to come back.
01:23:55I didn't know what to do, and...
01:23:57I'm not.
01:23:57What?
01:24:02What a good man you've become.
01:24:20Why do I...
01:24:25Why do I feel like we've met before?
01:24:29Because I've always been there watching.
01:24:33From the sea.
01:24:36In your dreams.
01:24:39You're my son, Matthew.
01:24:41tonight signifies a new beginning.
01:25:08A bridge between our worlds and theirs.
01:25:14This signifies our bond of trust.
01:25:20And a family.
01:25:31Let the sea breathe new life into this valley.
01:25:34Let the fish flow through its waters.
01:25:38Let the sea breathe new life into this valley.
01:25:57How long do you think they've been down there?
01:26:09All night?
01:26:10I guess they had a lot of catching up to do.
01:26:14Love is love.
01:26:15No matter how old you are.
01:26:19Oh, bye!
01:26:20Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:26:21Where do you think you guys are going?
01:26:23Where do you think we're going?
01:26:25All right, well, just be careful, okay?
01:26:27I'll take good care of her.
01:26:30Uncle Matt.
01:26:32Have fun!
01:26:34Man, it's going to take some getting used to.
01:26:39I guess a lot of things are.
01:26:42Life's a journey.
01:26:57The fish did return to Santa Carla.
01:27:11And my dad and granddad each began new chapters in their lives.
01:27:16And me?
01:27:21Well, my dad was right all along.
01:27:25I grew to love my new home.
01:27:27In the end of that magical summer, I learned that the ocean wasn't just a place of mystery, wonder, and secrets.
01:27:34I learned that it was a teacher.
01:27:36And if you listen hard enough, you learn about love, forgiveness.
01:27:42And in the end, maybe that's the most important lesson of all.
01:27:46Hey, Coral!
01:27:48Yeah?
01:27:50Friends forever?
01:27:51Family forever.
01:27:53Hey!
01:27:53Hey!
01:27:56Holy 밥!
01:27:57Hey, everyone!
01:28:10How are you doing?
01:28:10Bye!
