Waterworld (1995) Movie Script

[Narrator ]
The future:
The polar ice caps
have melted,
covering the Earth
with water
Those who survived
have adapted
to a new world
[ Gargling ]
[ Metal Clangs ]
[ Whistles ]
Bad luck, English
But the Slavers are producing
a good grade of poxy these days
Cost you a handful of dirt--
or maybe that wind chime
- What are you doin' here?
- Just waiting
Take your hand
off the sail
Take it off!
I've seen your boat before
Haven't seen you
Took it legal
Previous owner was dead on the tiller
when I found it
You had another hour
before I traded up again
[ Laughing ]
Just improving my means
- Well, I owe you then
- No, thanks
I got all the supplies I need
Just came from an atoll
Eight days east,
if you're interested
- Two drifters meet,
something needs to be exchanged
- I know the code
But I'll give you this one
for free
Nothing's free
in Waterworld
Ha-ha Yeah
Smokers
Just enough wind
to get away clean
[ Drifter ]
Forget the bag
It's not worth it You'll never
make it with your sails down
Hey!
[ Laughing ]
[ Gobbling Sound,
Laughing ]
What can I say?
[ Laughing ]
- Joe, he's goin' for it
- What the hell?
Never seen that before
Here we go! Go!
Drive! Drive!
Faster! Faster! Whoo!
Come on! He's gonna get it!
He's gonna get it!
- Pick her up!
- Get it! Get it!
[ lndistinct Shout ]
[ Curses In Hindi ]
Oh, no!
[ Shouting, Gunfire ]
[ Screaming ]
Inbound!
Straight out from the gates
English
Flag's down, drifter
We got enough traders
[ Murmuring ]
Dirt
Open the gates!
[ Man Coughing,
People Chattering ]
[ Man ]
Bones to berries
Veins to vine
These tendons to trees
This blood to brine
Too old she was
This woman does leave us,
recycled and enshrined
in the presence
of Him who leads us
[ Boys Chattering ]
- [ Boys Complaining ]
- What is that?
You know me?
I know what you are
Good Then you know if you
look for trouble while you're here,
you'll find more
than you can handle
You got two hours
I'll only need one
[ Boy ]
He's comin' over here
- Me
- You each get one
if everything's here
when I get back
- Pure dirt
- [ People Murmuring ]
How'd you come by
so much of it?
Another atoll
Where'd they get it?
- They didn't say
- [ Man ] We heard about that place--
that they was all killed
- That's why they didn't say
- Smokers?
Maybe Smokers,
maybe Slavers
So what's the word?
We tradin' or not?
We'll tally it
like, uh, pure hydro
Works out to 62 chits
[ Coins Clanging ]
I want twice that
[ Onlookers Murmuring ]
- I just want one sip of hydro!
- No, not 'til you tell me
She got inkings on her back
I seen her
They say if you read
the marks on the child,
they'll lead ya
all the way to Dryland
- Dryland's a myth
- Some still believe
They say the Smokers
even got an eye out for her
Well, then, we'd better
keep it to ourselves
- Help you?
- Yeah
- Where's the store?
- You found it
You don't have much
You the man
with the dirt?
Skoal
- One more
- Make it two
A man this rich will buy
for a fellow outwater, I'm sure
One
That's an interesting
pair of boots you got
- Trade?
- No
Shame
Enola
Hey, what are you doing?
- No, you can't do that
- I need another piece
I want to draw some more
I'll get it to you
Just stay in the back
With all those chits,
you could order up a bath
- Have you ever had a freshwater bath?
- Why are you talkin' to me?
Just being friendly
- Is that a tomato plant?
- Y eah
You have a keen eye
Saw one in a picture
How much?
Half your chits
- I'll take them too
- Take what?
- You bought everything
- I'll take them shelves
So, what did you see out there
in your 15 months?
- Such as?
- An end to all this water
Askin' the wrong person
- The one they buried today?
- Uh-huh?
She found the only end there is
I've got a proposition
for you, Mariner
- I'm not staying
- We're not asking you to
All we want is your seed
We can look to our own
for impregnation,
but too much of that sort of thing
gets undesirable
When she's pregnant,
you go on your way
with all the supplies
you need
You don't have anything
You're dying
No man stays out that long
and turns down a woman
- He's hiding something
- Maybe he's a Smoker spy
[ Whistles ]
When the elders say so,
you can leave,
and not before
Gills
- Mutation!
- He's a mutant!
[ Screaming ]
My hand!
[ Screaming ]
[ Man Shouting,
lndistinct ]
Throw the nets!
[ Crowd Yelling ]
[ Screams ]
By what right--
You pay me to keep the peace
This isn't it
- He has killed one of ours
- He was defending himself
- He needs to be destroyed!
- Kill him Let's kill him
- That may be,
but not here
and not like this
[ Boy ]
What is it?
Damn
It's tied
I can't get it off
Open the gate
[ Laughing ]
~ ~ [ Humming ]
Is it a map?
- You'd tell me if you knew,
wouldn't you, Enola?
- Mm-hmm
- What are you drawing?
- I don't know
Helen, look Look at
the prodigal child's latest vision
[ Chuckling ]
- How soon before we can leave?
- I don't have any idea yet
where we can go
I haven't figured out
the tattoo on her back
I'm a stupid man
The answer's right there
It's just beyond me
Maybe he knows
Oh, yes, I see
They are webbed
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight, nine,
ten digits That's wonderful
They tell me, too,
that you have gills
Isotropic gills Are they merely
vestigial or are they functional now?
My name is Gregor I've just come
to pay you a little vi-- vi--
Oh, my God
[ Laughing ]
I'm sorry
I'm not laughing at you
I'm excited Your gills
They're functional
Icthyus sapien
You can breathe in the water
How deep can you go?
Look, I'm only here
because I want to learn
more about you
[ Spitting ]
You don't like humans
very much, do you?
I can't say that I blame you
But tell me:
- Are all of your kind as
bad-tempered as you are?
- [ Slamming Cage ]
- I have no "kind "
- Oh, fish rot
I'd be surprised if there
weren't others, and if there aren't,
there will be eventually
Anyway, I've come here
because I need to ask you a question
Where-- Where did
your dirt come from?
Is it from Dryland?
Do you know what this is?
The ancients-- They did something
terrible, didn't they?
To cause all this water
Hundreds-- Hundreds of years ago
If I tell you,
will you open this lock?
I haven't a key
- There's a mooring cleat down there
- What?
- Good as any key
- A mooring cleat?
I won't hurt anyone
I'll just leave
- I'll be right back
- [ Man ] Gregor!
What's your business there?
- Move along!
- I'm not a brave man
If you know anything about Dryland,
please tell me Please!
Don't let it die with you
No, no, no, no
Stop!
[ Man ]
Gregor! Move along!
[ Elder ]
After considerable deliberation
of the evidence at hand,
it is our decision
that this mute-o
does, indeed,
constitute a threat
Therefore, in the interest
of public safety,
he is hereby sentenced
to be recycled
in the customary fashion
Proceed
I'm sorry
Bones to berries
Veins to vines
His tendons to trees
His blood to brine
Too strange for life he was
This mute-o now does leave us,
recycled and entombed,
in the presence
of Him who leads us
Smokers!
Dead out of the sun!
To your posts!
[ Confused Shouting, Screaming ]
[ Woman ]

Well, do somethin'
I hate sails
Hey! Can you steer?
Can I trust you?
Answer me this, somebody
Why is that boat still firin'?
- What's that cousin's name?
- Chuck
- Hey, Chuck!
- [ Smoker Leader ]
He's pulling him right into us
Maybe he doesn't answer to "Chuck "
Call him "Charles " Charles!
Stop him! Stop him!
[ Screaming ]
Charles!
Adios, cousins
She's here somewhere
Keep lookin'
[ Screaming ]
Stop it!
- What you got?
- Couple of heartbeats over there
Aren't sayin' much
If you'll notice the arterial
nature of the blood comin'
from the hole in my head,
you can assume that we're
all havin' a real lousy day
So here it is: I need to know
about that tattooed girl
First one that
tells me lives
- I saw a girl I saw, I saw--
- It was-- Sh-She had
a big tattoo on her
[ lndistinct ]
You won
Start over
I saw a girl
I'm not sure,
but I think she got on that boat
with three hulls
- The boat that cost me
a thousand G's of go-juice?
- Y eah, the mute-o's boat
- Mute-o?
- Y eah He got these slits here
Like-- [ Laughing ]
Like fish gills
He wasn't really a man
A fluke of evolution
Oh, I'm sorry
A fluke of, uh--
- Evolution
- I know!
- No! No, you said
you wouldn't kill me!
- Did I say that?
- Witnesses, anybody, did l?
- Y es, yes, yes! You said--
- You said it
- Oh, I may have
I may have
- [ Gasping, Screaming ]
- [ Gunshot ]
We get to the 'Deez,
tank up that sky boat;
send it out on patrol
We gotta keep an eye out
for that ichthy-freak
You been there, haven't you?
Dryland?
You know where it is
Yeah, I know where it is
And, uh-- And we're going?
You and I are
The kid we gotta pitch
over the side
- What?
- My boat's tore up
I'm takin' on water
I'd be lucky to get
half a hydro ration out of that
You know--
I said I won't drink
For 12 days?
No It's better
one of you dies now
than both of you die slow
Wait Wait
We saved your life
We got you out
No, you got me out so you
could get out We're even
She can cook
She can fish
- So can I
- Then take my necklace
Take my necklace
- I got better ones below
- No, look!
Oh
After what you went through
back there on the atoll,
I can understand
why you would want to
But she's a child
~ ~ [ Enola Humming ]
Is there something else then?
Enola! Go below
Enola
Y eah You said so yourself
Been out there a long time
Couple hours ago,
I was potential dirt to you
- We're not like that
- You all are
Know what I was really thinkin'?
Why I don't drop both of you
in my wake right now
You got nothin' I need
You're taking us to Dryland
Killing's a hard thing to do well
- Believe me I'm not
the one to start on
- Both of us!
How long you plan
to hold that on me?
As long as it takes
- Okay
- No!
Let me out of here!
Where the hell are you?
Don't you touch my child
Come here!
[ lndistinct Shouting ]
[ Groaning ]
Okay, now don't move, okay?
There
Ohh Oh, lookin'
real good, yeah
There There
All done
Now, there may be some small problem
in depth perception
Well, it better not
screw up my short game
- Well?
- [ Smokers ] Looks good
I like it Yeah
- I like it better than your real eye
- Much better
- What do you say, Toby? The truth
- Looks like shit
That's why I love children
No guile
It does look like shit
And it feels like cold shit!
Deacon? What--
I'm sorry l-It's just that
there's a problem in the pit
Maybe you should come
- Let's drive
- [ Chattering ]
The pit Don't bother
with the scenic route
[ Deacon ] Drive!
Hey, it's drivin' better
Get off!
Get over there
Get out of the way
All right, all right, all right
Okay, okay
You guys are great
Bless all you cousins over there
Keep up the good work
Growth is progress Growth is progress
Somebody!
Hey, up there!
Take it off!
- Yes
- Your Deaconship
Hello Good morning
Or night,
whichever the case may be
- What is it? I'm a busy man
- I thought you should know
We're down to exactly
four feet, nine inches
of black stuff
- [ Spitting ]
- Thank you, sir
- How many G's is that after refinin'?
- Maybe three refuelers
- We'll burn through that in two lunars
- Sweet Joe!
Will somebody please tell me
what's happened to this place?
We outgrowed it
All right, the only thing
that is important is the tattooed girl
We don't spare any go-juice
findin' her
We don't waste it anywhere else
You cancel all those tractor pulls
and all that stuff
until later
You got it?
Dryland is the mother lode
[ Laughing ]
On your toes
Excellent
- Hi
- Move
Enola!
Enola, come here!
Come on!
Enola, come over here
Hey!
- What are ya doin'?
- Decorating your boat It's ugly
- Where did you get this?
- From down below
This is mine!
You don't touch anything of mine
- I drew it for you
- You don't draw on anything
You understand?
What--
This is my boat
I got it the way I like it
You take up space
and you slow me down
You know, she's just a little girl
- She doesn't know your rules
- You wanna stay?
You teach her
Enola, what'd I tell you?
You're not so tough
You know that?
How many people
have you killed?
Ten? Twenty?
- You talk a lot
- I talk a lot 'cause
you don't talk at all
Now how many?
- lncluding little girls?
- I'm not afraid of you
I told Helen you wouldn't be so ugly
if you cut your hair
In fact, you talk all the time
- It's like a storm
when you're around
- Enola!
Hey! What are you doing?
- [ Enola ] Helen!
- [ Helen ] You bastard!
She can't swim!
Help me! Helen!
Helen, help me!
Helen!
[ Sobbing ]
Helen, help me!
[ Gasping ]
Helen! Helen!
Hold on!
Look at me
Look at me Look at me
Oh, please, come back
Please!
Please! Oh, please!
[ Choking ]
Hey! [ Gasping ]
Hold on
Okay, almost
there
Thanks I swear,
if you ever touch her again--
You son of a bitch
Look at me
You will go to bed that night,
and you will never wake up
- Shut up
- What?
- [ Helen ] Smokers?
- Y eah
Can't we outrun them?
- [ Engine Humming ]
- Not with my sail down
- What are you thinkin' about?
- That's a nice touch
That's them
Don't hit the kid
[ Cackling ]
Hey!
Coward!
[ Laughing ]
Fuck!
No!
[ Groaning ]
[ lndistinct ]
Cut it!
Come on! Come on!
[ Y ells ]
All right Okay
[ Gunfire ]
[ Helen ]
Oh, I'm really sorry
I'm sorry
But you didn't give me much choice
Oh, I know
But you ran away
l-- What?
What are you do--
No! Please, no! No!
[ Grunting ]
Don't ever touch
anything on my boat again
She said she was sorry!
That means you're supposed
to say something back!
- Did you say somethin'?
- [ Enola ] Mm-mmm
[ Deacon ] The child--
did he have the girl with him?
- [ Pilot ] Uh-huh
- Seems to me if we launch now,
we can cut him down
just about here
- If he doesn't change course
- Ah, it's not likely
He's a wily one,
that ichthy-demon
Y eah, if he knows
he's been spotted,
he'll expect us to expect him
to change course,
which is exactly why
he'll keep his heading
The important question is,
where's he heading?
And does he know
how precious his cargo is?
I say that he's headed here,
and we take him here
[ Drifter Shouting ]
- Drifter?
- Mm-hmm
- [ Shouting Continues ]
- [ Helen ] Are we gonna stop?
- Look at the flag!
- His flag's up
I thought you all
stopped for each other
Well maybe he has some food!
Don't find many who follow
the rules anymore
Well, make it quick
What's your business?
Trade
You got any resin?
Resin? He's gotta be out of
his mind He's out of his mind
I don't have any resin
- [ Babbling ]
- You been outwater
a long time, haven't you?
Must be jokin' me, man
Resin! You don't got enough
How 'bout food?
Could you say that again, please?
- How 'bout food?
- Ah, yeah, food
Yeah, that'd be good, eh?
I haven't eaten in, well,
you know, forever
Which one of you two is a cook?
'Cause I usually fall for the waitress
[ Chuckling ]
Like you said,
I don't have much
Now listen, eh? [ Mumbles ]
Let's see What do I have to do?
We can start with that wee orchard
you got over there
- [ Whooping ]
- All right, hold it there
- [ Mariner ] We can talk
- [ Drifter ] Fair enough
[ Babbling ]
It's a nice rod, isn't it?
I like that rod
It's a nice rod [ Babbles ]
Got yourself a wee harem
goin' here now, do ya?
What you want for the women?
We're not for sale
Not for sale?
There's no such thing as not for sale
"Not for sale"!
Not for sale, eh?
- Are they a pair or would you
consider sellin' 'em separate?
- No
Our business is done here unless you got
some resin for sale you can part with
I told you once already,
I don't have it
I-l-I don't have it
Don't have it Don't have it
Haven't seen neither for trade
in lunars now Wait Wait, wait, wait
I do have somethin' that'll
make you change your mind
Somethin' that you can't pass on
[ Giggles ]
I took it off
an Atoller refugee camp
The life savings
of the entire clan
Paper
[ Babbles ]
It's paper Have you ever
seen paper? Look at it
Smell it
I been savin' it
for a special trade
Don't you do it
You know, maybe I'm talkin'
to the wrong person here
Whose boat is this?
Is it your boat or your boat?
No No, it's his boat
But he doesn't own us
Half an hour
[ Mumbling, Babbling ]
Out of his mind somethin' there
I got two pages in here, man!
I mean, I'd get half a dozen
girls with this, you know
Half an hour
- You tradin' or not?
- Don't
Shut up
Okay
Forty-five minutes

more than a while, actually

half an hour, half an hour--
[ Mumbles ]
Great, great, great--

Oh-h-h Ohh

[ Drifter ]
Ah, you bastard!
[ Banging, Crashing Continue ]

[ Mumbling ]
Help me to me boat

[ Helen Gasps ]
Look, I'm sorry
You were right about the pole
You were right,
but we have to eat
Now I know
you can hear me!
Now we can fish for ourselves
You show us what to do
You must know how
Even you gotta eat!
You just sit there
- What--
- [ Mumbling ] I don't know
Happy now?
~~ [ Humming ]
~~ [ Humming Continues ]
You don't like my singing,
do you?
Helen says you don't like my singing
'cause you can't sing
- Ever try and listen?
- To what?
The sound of the world
- I don't hear anything
- That's because you're too loud,
and you're movin' around
all the time
Try sittin' still
Eyeball?
I wish I had feet like his
Then maybe I could swim
Enola
[ Burps ] Sorry
Never met a person
couldn't swim before
I can't
People say I was weird
Maybe they were right
Maybe they were right
about you too
Enola wanted to give you this
And this
She won't take it again
You don't look much like her
- Well, I'm not her mother,
if that's what you're asking
- You act like it
What are those marks
on her back?
Nothing
They're just fanciful things
- Like what she draws?
- She draws what she sees
She's like a mirror
People on the atoll
thought she was a--
Freak?
Uh-huh Yeah
I just thought
she was special
I'm not givin' it
to her It's just--
A loan
Yeah I'm not
givin' it to her
Is Dryland beautiful?
You'll see
[ Enola Laughing, Giggling ]
- Enola?
- [ Laughing ]
Enola, what are you doing?
- Those monsters'll kill her!
- No, they're asleep now
Hands around my neck
Let the water tell your arms
and legs how to move
We're goin' down
Hold your breath
- What is it?
- What is it?
Barter outpost
You said we'd get
to Dryland today
Today Tomorrow
What's it matter?
I need resin

Howdy, darlin'

Starboard side! Now!
Get in the chair!
Watch it
He's clearin' the net
Go to the helm
- Get the centerboard!
- Centerboard?
What centerboard?
I don't know what to do!
It's too late
Over here!
[ Screaming, Y elling ]
No!
Gimme that rifle
Boy, if you wanna do somethin' right,
you've got to do it yourself
[ Whispers ]
All right
- I winged him
- I say we load
all the go-juice onto one boat
and run the freak down
You can't catch him in ten boats,
and you wanna send just one?
Well, I pray that you're jokin'
Bring me the trackers
He's hurt
It's not what you think
They weren't after her
- I saw what I saw
- What?
No more lies
- [ Shrieks ]
- What are the marks on her back?
People say it's the way to Dryland
Dryland's a myth!
No! You said so yourself
that you know where it is
You did
You're a fool to believe in something
you've never seen before
I've seen it I've touched it!
Dirt that was richer
and darker than yours
It was in the basket
we found Enola in!
- It doesn't exist!
- Well, how can you be so sure?
Because I've sailed farther than most
have dreamed, and I've never seen it
But the things on your boat!
"Things on my boat" what?
There are things on your boat
that nobody has ever seen!
What are these shells?
And that reflecting glass?
And th-the music box?
That--
Well, if not from Dryland,
then where? Wh-Where?
You wanna see Dryland?
You really wanna see it?
I'll take you to Dryland
Get in
- Well, what about Enola?
- There's only air for one
- Get in the water
- lt'll be all right
Don't touch anything
Okay?
I didn't know
All this time
I didn't know
Nobody does
Can you get us outta here?
I'd say there're
two chances o' that
- Hey!
- No way and no how
Shoulda bought me
that drink Come on!
This way Come on!
[ Men Yelling, Cheering ]
Proper introductions first
I'm the Deacon
[ Men Laughing ]
If you don't recall the face,
perhaps it's 'cause I didn't
always look like this
Now, ahem, I suspect
she's somewhere real close
So we can tear this boat apart
lookin' for her, but I'd rather
somebody tell me where she is
And the first one
that does that, lives
And the runner-up--
Well, actually, there are no runners-up
Oh, sweet Joe,
I love this part
Choose 'em One, two
Live or die
You know, personally,
I'd rather shoot
the sperm-of-the-devil here
Huh? But you know somethin'?
I don't think you're gonna
tell me, are ya?
Huh? Too bad
Come on, eh?
What do you say?
She's not your kind
You don't even have a kind
If you say it,
he'll still kill us both
[ Deacon Grunts ]
Let's not get ahead of ourselves
If you don't tell me,
I swear to Poseidon
I will torch your boat
Refresh my memory
What happens when neither of 'em talks?
- Never happened before
- Never happened before
[ Sighs ]
All right!
If they won't tell us where
she is, do 'em! Both of 'em!
Kill 'em now! [ Fires Gun ]
- No!
- [ Helen ] No!
So gullible!
Bring her here
[ Men Cheering, Shouting ]
- Take and ye shall receive!
- [ Helen ] No! Leave her!
So ends your daily sermonette!
[ Laughing ]
All we gotta do is figure out this map
Turn her upside down
-Does that mean anything to you?
-No
[ Deacon ] We'll figure it out back
at the 'Deez Back at the 'Deez, boys
Careful with her
Careful with her!
- What about them?
- Do 'em both
Torch the boat
We have to go under!
No, I can't breath like you!
I'll breathe for both of us
[ Man ] Whoo!
[ Enola ] Helen!
Helen, help!
Helen! Helen!
My boat
Enola
[ Door Opens ]
What is this?
Get those chains off her
What are we, barbarians here?
Goodness gracious
Sakes alive
Come on Outta here,
you big, nasty animal, you!
Well, rub-a-dub-dub
[ Chuckles ]
You wanna come over here
and sit on my lap?
No? Ahem
How 'bout a cigarette?
Nothin' like a good smoke
if you miss your mom
Never too young to start
No Well, I got somethin'
right here I know you'd like
Like to draw, don't you? Huh?
Huh?
Now they're yours
if you help me with just
one problem, all right?
Now, ahem-- Now that tattoo
on your back-- Ahem
I've been told that, uh--
that's actually a map?
It's the way to Dryland
Now we're gettin' someplace
Could you teach me
how to read that?
Setback
Well, have you ever heard
any of your friends talk about it?
You know, like your mommy or
your pet fish? Did he say anything?
You shouldn't make fun of him
He wouldn't like it
Girl, I don't give a shit
what he'd like He took out my eye
And if I ever see him again, I'm gonna
cut open his head and eat his brains!
You think he'd like that?
Can't kill him
He's even meaner than you are
But he's not here
And he ain't comin'
And no one's gonna save you
He'll come for me He will
Then you better tell me what I wanna
know or he can see what's left of you
in a goddamn jar
We're going to die here,
aren't we?
Aren't we?
After the atoll,
when I offered myself to you,
why didn't you take me?
'Cause you didn't really want me
Not really
Have I been asleep long?
I was dreaming
It's funny
I always thought Dryland floated
That it drifted with the wind
That's why it was so hard to find
Why did you believe in it so much?
Because we weren't made for the sea
Got hands and feet
We're supposed to walk
I miss her sound
Don't you?
[ Gregor ] Helen!
He-- No, no, no
Helen, up here Above you!
- [ Chuckling ]
- [ Helen ] Gregor!
[ Chuckling Continues ]
Smart thinking
to burn your boat
Without the smoke,
I never would have found you
Who's that with you?
Ichthyus Sapien,
is that really you?
I'll throw the rope down
You catch it I'll help you climb up
Helen Where's Enola?
Smokers took her They'd have me too
if it weren't for him
My friend, thank you
Very human of you
Go grab your things quickly
Quickly Come
[ Gregor ] You see?
Right down there
There's several of us survivors
We'll just start over again
[ Man ] You can't ask us
to go get her!
[ Woman ] Enola's the reason
we're in all this trouble
[ Helen ] They don't have any
reason to kill her They need
to find Dryland just like we do
- Of course
- [ Helen ] If the Mariner's
willing to go, why not us?
[ Woman ]
If he wants to go, then let him!
[ Woman #2 ] We don't want you here!
You or the girl!
Helen The papers
the Mariner brought you--
It's the same language the tattoo
is written in They're numbers
- [ Man ] Gregor,
you're as crazy as she is!
- [ Woman ] We can't stay here!
We're wasting valuable time
More Smokers will come
We need to be moving now!
My friends, don't you see we need
this child if we want to find Dryland?
- I'm not goin'
- Nobody is
[ Woman ] We've seen their smoke
on the horizon!
- Know what that is yet?
- The numbers? Y es, I think I do
It seems to be some ancient form
of geographic location:
latitude, longitude
It doesn't make sense, though
The numbers, they seem
to be backwards or something
- It's upside down
- The world?
The poles have reversed themselves?
I've been mappin' the cities below
The world wasn't created in a deluge
It was covered by it
- [ Man ] That's blasphemy!
- [ Helen ] No, it's true
I've seen it with
my own eyes There is land
It's right under our keel
- None of it's dry anymore
- Some is
Enola's been there
I know that now I saw what she drew
So that's why he's going after Enola--
to find Dryland
I don't care about Dryland
This is ridiculous
Going after the Smokers?
He doesn't even know
which direction they came from
- [ Man ] I say let him go
- [ Woman ] We're better off
without them anyway!
If she's alive,
I'll bring her back to you
[ Woman ] Forget the mute-o, Helen
If he brings her back, they'll kill us!
I can't stand it We gotta go help him
I can't ask him to do this alone
Oh, don't worry, my dear
You're not going to have to
[ Deacon ] You got that tattoo
figured out yet?
It would be easier if it was flat--
big and flat
- It needs to be flat
- What you got in mind?
Well, you cut it off her back
You stretch it, mount it
- Give us a proper look
- Take her down below until I holler
Saint Joe, we're close
After centuries of shame
[ Scraping ]
[ Distant Shouting ]
[ Distant Laughter ]
[ Crowd Shouting ]
- They're gettin' ugly
- Don't I know it
Announce me, cousin
[ Crowd Chanting ]
- [ Microphone Popping ]
- Hey Here he is
[ Crowd ] Deacon!
Rise up, brothers and sisters
Turn your eyes and open your hearts
to your humble benefactor,
your spiritual shepherd
and dictator for life,
the Deacon of the 'Deez
[ Crowd Cheering ]
[ Cheering Continues ]
- Look out!
- It's mine! It's mine!
[ Confused Shouting ]
- Deacon!
- Wahoo!
Children
Children of the provider
Citizens of the good ship
Please now, hear me speak
- I've had a vision
- [ Man ] Y eah, we're
tired of your visions!
What about the land
you promised us?
[ Crowd ]
Yeah! Yeah!
[ Deacon ]
O ye of little faith
I've had a vision so great
that as it came to me, I wept
- And in this splenditudinous
figment of wonder,
- Is that Bone's ride?
- Is that blood on the seat?
- I saw--
And you know
what it is that I saw
I saw the land
[ Cheering ]
[ Gasping ]
[ Crowd Chanting ]
- Horse, that you?
- [ Engine Revving ]
Look, just bring it in slow,
okay? I don't have all day
- [ Engine Revs ]
- Horse!
Just bring it up slow
I said slow!
[ Screams ]
Shouldn't be doing that
You're gonna get in trouble
Ha That's right
You're not afraid You've got
your pet freak comin' to rescue you
He's not a freak,
and he can take you anytime
He's killed dozens of people, and he
doesn't have any mercy or anything
He even kills little girls
Haven't we all?
Shit
It's Horse
- Find him Find him!
- Come on!
- [ Crowd Chanting ]
- Yes! Yes! Yes!
- Come on
- Gettin' nervous, aren't you?
I don't get nervous
[ Deacon ]
And if there's a river, we'll dam it
And if there's a tree,
we'll ram it
'Cause I'm talkin' progress here
Yes, sir I'm talkin' development
- [ Man ] Yeah!
- For we shall suck and savor
the sweet flavor of Dryland
- [ Crowd Whistling ]
- [ Enola ] Face is all red
- [ Deacon Continues Faintly ]
- Helen said with anybody
that has a face that red,
he's had too much sun
or too much to drink
- All right, that's it
I'm gonna burn your face
- Almost time
- [ Clanging ]
- What's up?
- We're just talkin' about our friend
- [ Doctor ] What's his name?
- [ Enola ] He doesn't have a name
So death can't find him
Nah-nah
Doesn't have a home
or people to care for
He's not afraid of anything,
men least of all
He's fast and strong
like a big wind
He can hear a hundred miles
and see a hundred miles underwater
- [ Gagging ]
- He can hide in the shadow
of the noon sun
He could be right behind you, and you
won't even know it 'til you're dead!
Give it a rest
He'll come for me He will
- [ Deacon Addressing Crowd ]
We are the people--
- Yeah?
- Well, I hope he does
- [ Deacon ] The Lord's creation
Remember you said that
[ Deacon Continues ]
Look at us
- Look at us here today
- [ Man ] Yeah!
Dryland is not just
our destination,
but it is our destiny!
[ Cheering, Whistling ]
Find him Find him!
How can I find
this glorious place?
And he said to me:
"A child shall lead you "
A child
- And behold!
- It's time
The instrument of our salvation!
[ Crowd Cheering ]
[ Deacon ]
Our guide in the wild
[ Deacon ]
Our beacon in the darkness
Turn her around, Nord
She has shown me the path!
[ Cheering ]
And before the holy-most moment
is upon us,
Iet's sacrifice one
to old Saint Joe
And let's get this
tub of shit up to speed
Y ep
[ Wild Cheering ]
Pull!
- Pull!
- Pull!
- Pull
- Pull!
Ow
- So which way we rowin'?
- I don't have a goddamn clue
[ Laughs ]
Don't worry
They'll row for a month
before they figure out I'm fakin' it
But, um, wh-wh--
Oh, you want details
Well, I'm not tellin' these savages
that we haven't
solved the map yet
I promised them results,
and I'll get 'em if I gotta
cut 'em out of her goddamn back
Who is that?
Who is that?
Maybe one of
the spare rowers?
Why aren't you rowin'?
- It's him
- It is him
You guys are in
so much trouble
Well, I'll be damned
It's the gentleman guppy
You know, he's like
a turd that won't flush
I want the girl
You know, I thought you
were stupid, friend
- [ Gun Cocking ]
- But I underestimated you
You're a total freakin' retard
[ Laughing ]
I want the girl That's all
Well, what on this screwed-up Earth
makes you think you're gonna get her?
You know what this is?
I drop it, you burn
- We all burn
- Now wait, wait, wait, wait
Ahem Let's not do
anything rash here
I mean, uh, are you sure
she's worth all this?
She never does stop talkin'
She never shuts up
- I noticed
- What is it then?
Huh? It's the map
She's my friend
Golly gee
A single tear rolls down my cheek
I mean, you're gonna
die for your friend
If it comes to that
- He's bluffing I'll kill him
- He's not bluffing He never bluffs
Shut up!
I don't-- l-l-- I don't think
you're gonna drop that torch, my friend
- Why not?
- Because you're not crazy
No!
Oh, thank God
[ Screaming ]
[ Gunfire ]
[ Smoker ]
Look out! [ Screaming ]
Get him!
Let's go, goddamn it!
- [ Screaming ]
- Don't just stand there!
Kill somethin'!
Was this your big vision?
[ Screaming ]
Oh, yeah! I've always wanted
to drive this monster
There he is!
There he is!
That's him! There!
[ Shrieks ]
[ Screaming ]
[ Enola ]
No! Let go!
[ Explosion ]
[ Enola ]
Let go!
- [ Enola ] Let me go! Let go!
- [ Deacon ] Pilot!
- [ Deacon ] Pilot!
- [ Enola ] Let me go!
- [ Mariner Cocking Gun ]
- Let go!
Let go-o-o-o!
[ Laughing ]
You should've stayed underwater
[ Clicks Twice ]
Oh!
Now you know how to fly an airplane?
You're lucky I do
Ow! Now you stop it!
You behave yourself now!
[ Explosions ]
- Oh!
- [ Mariner Grunting ]
[ Explosion ]
[ Explosion ]
[ Helen ]
It's going down
- You can see it sinking
- Gregor, bring us
right down on top of it
- Hurry, Gregor!
- [ Gregor ] Don't worry
Hurry
[ Clanging, Rumbling ]
Enola! Up here!
Grab on!
[ Gregor ]
Are they on yet?
- [ Gregor ] What is it?
- [ Helen ] I don't know!
No!
Gotcha! I'm gonna rip
your cute little lungs out
[ Y elling ]
[ Enraged Shout ]
Pull! Almost
[ Helen, Gregor Laughing ]
[ Explosion ]
- [ Shrieks ]
- [ Helen ] No!
- [ Enola Screaming ]
- [ Helen ] No! Enola!
Saint Joe
Hole in one
- Helen!
- [ Helen ] No! Enola!
- [ Gregor ] Helen!
Hey! Hey!
Ohh Oh, no! Quick!
What are we gonna do?
Hyah! Hyah!
Tie this off
- [ Gregor ] Hurry!
- Tie it!
- Got it!
- [ Enola ] Ah!
[ Screaming ]
Get 'em up now
- [ Enola Grunting ]
- [ Gregor Laughing ]
- [ Gregor ] Of course!
North is south
- What?
- South is north
- I was swimming
- I saw
- [ Gregor ] My friends
My friends, look
If I take a bearing from the sun and
reverse the coordinates on Enola's back,
then Dryland is that way!
[ Sea Gull Chattering ]
- [ Helen Laughing ]
- It's fresh!
All of this!
It's fresh!
[ Helen Shrieks ]
[ Laughing ]
No!
[ Laughing ]
[ Helen ]
Whoo! Whoo!
I found something!
Maybe we should put them
under the dirt
I think it was their way
[ Gregor ] They must have known
they were dying
[ Helen Laughing ]
[ Winding Key ]
I'm home
- Where's the Mariner?
- He was outside
Wait Wait!
I want to show you this
[ Birds Chirping Loudly ]
[ Hoofbeats ]
[ Whinnying ]
[ Birds Twittering, Chirping ]
First time in your life
you got nothin' to say?
Enola, I have to go now
But you came back for me
I like you
Why are you leaving?
- I don't belong here
I belong out there
- You belong here
It's too strange here
It doesn't move right
Helen said that
it's only land sickness
We're all feeling it
lt'll go away soon
It's more than that
