SCENE ONE: IN THE BALLROOM, ERNESTO HAS JUST REVEALED HIMSELF TO EVERYBODY AT ISABELLA'S DINNER. HE WANTS ISABELLA TO LEAVE THE SHIP WITH HIM.

SCENE TWO: BACK IN THEIR CABIN, JACK AND JENNIFER ARE STILL ON THE BED. JACK ISHOLDING JENNIFER AND THEY ARE KISSING PASSIONATELY.

 

JENNIFER: Jack.

JACK: Jennifer.

 

HE CONTINUES TO KISS HER NECK.

 

JENNIFER: Jack, Jack.

 

JENNIFER SEEMS TO WANT JACK TO STOP.

 

JACK: Jennifer, Jennifer....

 

SENSING THIS HE STOPS AND LOOKS AT HER.

SHE KISSES HIM BUT HE PULLS BACK AND SITS ON THE EDGE OF THE BED, NOT WANTING TO FORCE HIMSELF ON HER REMEMBERING THE RAPE.

 

JACK: (Guilty) No....look I'm sorry.

JENNIFER: It's okay.

JACK: No, no, no, I'm sorry. I didn't plan that. I didn't....that wasn't supposed to happen.

JENNIFER: No Jack, you don't understand, you don't understand.

JACK: That's right, I don't understand man. I don't understand how we got in the position in the first place.

JENNIFER: Jack.

 

HE IS SITTING ON THE EDGE OF THE BED AND SHE IS SITTING IN THE CENTER OF THE BED BEHIND HIM. SHE TAKES HIS FACE IN HER HANDS, SO THAT SHE IS KISSING HIM OVER HIS LEFT SHOULDER. HE RESPONDS WITH A GENTLE KISS BACK.

 

JENNIFER: It's okay, it's alright. Jack, I don't want you to stop.

 

JACK IS A BIT PUZZLED AND SLIGHTLY FRUSTRATED BY THE MIXED SIGNALS.

 

JACK: You don't want me to stop?

JENNIFER: No, I've been waiting a long time for this. I've even dreamed about it.

JACK: That's what I don't understand. You say you don't want me to stop, you've dreamed about it but....

JENNIFER: I just want to be happy about this....always.

 

JENNIFER TURNS AROUND AND PICKS UP THE DIAPHRAGM.

 

JENNIFER: You understand?

JACK: Yeah, sure I do.

JENNIFER: Okay, I won't be long.

 

JENNIFER WALKS TO THE BATHROOM DOOR THEN STOPS. JACK IS SMILING TO HIMSELF. SHE WALKS BACK TO HIM, NOT BEING ABLE TO RESIST HIM.

 

JENNIFER: Jack.

JACK: Huh!

 

HE GLANCES AT THE DIAPHRAGM IN HER HAND AND SMILES. SHE BENDS DOWN AND KISSES HIM.

 

JENNIFER: I'll just be a minute.

JACK: Sure.

 

JACK SMILES TO HIMSELF AS SHE GOES INTO THE BATHROOM. HE IS CONTENT AND AT EASE.

JACK: I'm not going anywhere.

SCENE THREE: JACK SETS ABOUT TO GET THE BED READY. HE TURNS BACK THE SHEETS AND STRAIGHTENS THEM OUT. HE HEARS JENNIFER COMING OUT OF THE BATHROOM AND STANDS UP AWAY FROM THE BED. SHE IS WEARING A NIGHTGOWN AND ROBE. JACK IS STILL DRESSED. THEY BOTH ARE SLIGHTLY NERVOUS ABOUT MAKING LOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME, YET READY AND WANTING TO DO SO.

 

JENNIFER: Oh I didn't take too long, did I?

JACK: No, no.

 

SHE WALKS TO THE FAR SIDE OF THE BED AND SITS DOWN. JACK PAUSES FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN CRAWLS ACROSS THE BED AND SITS NEXT TO HER. HE TRIES TO ADMIT HIS LOVE FOR HER BUT HAS A DIFFICULT TIME. DESPITE THIS SHE KNOWS HOW HE FEELS.

 

JACK: Ah....ah....you know Jennifer....

JENNIFER: Sshh! You don't know how much time we have.

 

THEY KISS.

 

JENNIFER: Or don't have.

 

SHE BEGINS TO UNBUTTON HIS SHIRT AS THEY LOOK IN EACH OTHER'S EYES AND BREATHE EACH OTHER'S BREATH.

JACK: You know Jennifer....

JENNIFER: I love you Jack.

JACK: You know Je....

JENNIFER: I love you.

JACK: You know....Jennifer....you....

JENNIFER: I love you.

JACK: You know....I lo....

JENNIFER: Know what?

JACK: You know! You know....you know I lo....(He mouths the rest of the word.)

JENNIFER: I know.

 

HE TAKES HER FACE IN HIS HANDS AND KISSES HER GENTLY AND WITH GREAT LOVE. SHE RESPONDS AND THEY FALL BACK ON THE BED. AS THEY LIE BACK ON THE PILLOW, JENNIFER REACHES OUT TO TURN OFF THE LIGHT, BUT INSTEAD TURNS ON THE INTERCOM. VOICES CAN BE HEARD ARGUING.

 

ERNESTO: You destroyed your mother. He murdered our love, now he's lying Isabella....

 

JACK GETS UPSET AT ALL THE NOISE.

 

JACK: What the hell? What the hell is that?

JENNIFER: It's the intercom. Forget about it.

 

JENNIFER STARTS TO KISS JACK AGAIN BUT THE INTERCOM CONTINUES.

 

ERNESTO: Please you must come now, it's time to go.

ISABELLA: Where are you taking me?

ERNESTO: Once we're off this ship, then I'll feel free to tell you the destination.

ISABELLA: I don't understand Daddy, why all this secrecy?

 

THIS LAST CONVERSATION STOPS JACK.

 

JACK: Wait...wait a minute. She just said "Daddy."

JENNIFER: Daddy?!

SCENE FOUR: IN THE BALLROOM, ERNESTO CONVINCES ISABELLA THAT SHE MUST GO WITH HIM.VICTOR OBJECTS BUT SHE GOES ANYWAY.

SCENE FIVE: BACK IN THE CABIN, JACK IS ASTOUNDED.

 

JACK: He's still alive! Ernesto's still alive. I don't believe this!

JENNIFER: He planned all of this.

JACK: Look we've got to get out of here. We've got to let Isabella know.

JENNIFER: Jack we've done everything we can do. There is no way....

JACK: What, what?

JENNIFER: I've an idea!

 

JENNIFER RUNS INTO THE BATHROOM.

SCENE SIX: A SHORT TIME LATER JENNIFER EMERGES FROM THE BATHROOM DRESSED IN THE SAME PALE PINK PANTS SUIT THAT SHE WAS WEARING EARLIER. SHE PICKS UP HER OVERNIGHT BAG AND TAKES OUT THE GUN SHE PUT IN THERE BEFORE SHE LEFT HOME.

 

JACK: Hey you must have a lot of confidence in yourself to change back into your street clothes. I hope you've got something up your sleeve because I haven't been able to figure one way to get through that door.

JENNIFER: We didn't try this.

 

SHE TURNS AROUND AND JACK SEES THE GUN POINTED RIGHT AT HIM. HE DUCKS.

 

JACK: Whoa, whoa, whoa! Jennifer....

JENNIFER: Jack just relax, I have the safety on. I'll show you.

 

SHE AIMS THE GUN AT A MARBLE PYRAMID STATUE ON THE DRAWERS AND FIRES. THE GUN BLASTS IT TO PIECES.

 

JENNIFER: AAAARRRGGGHHHH!

JACK: Some safety catch, huh! Give me that. Wait a minute, that's mine! That's my gun!

JENNIFER: I thought we might need it for some protection.

JACK: Protection for what

JENNIFER: For the door, the lock on the door.

JACK: You want to shoot the lock on the door?

JENNIFER: Jack look they do it on tv okay. We don't have any other choice. We have to help Isabella. Do it.

JACK: I'm not going to shoot an unarmed door! Wait a minute!

JENNIFER: You're telling me that you're afraid to use this gun?

JACK: I don't like guns. I mean is that a big turn on for you or something?

JENNIFER: Get out of my way Jack, I'll do it.

JACK: No, no, no, I've seen your work. No, no, come on, give that to me....Jennifer. Give me the gun.

JENNIFER: I thought you said you didn't like the guns.

JACK: I like dying even less. Now just, out of the way, out of the way, out of the way. Step back, step back. I know what I'm doing. Get up there. Okay.

 

JENNIFER HOPS UP ON THE BED BEHIND JACK AND JACK TAKES AIM AT THE DOOR LOCK.

 

JACK: Ready! One....

JACK SQUEEZES HIS EYES SHUT.

 

JENNIFER: Jack you can't do it with your eyes shut.

JACK: Two, three!

 

JACK PULLS THE TRIGGER AND THE LOCK IS BLOWN AWAY.

 

JENNIFER: JACK!

 

JACK: WHAT? Did I get you? I got you, I got you. Are you alright?

 

JACK WORRIEDLY TURNS AROUND TO MAKE SURE SHE IS ALRIGHT.

 

JENNIFER: No, you got the lock!

JACK: I did!

JENNIFER: Yes, look!

 

NAILING THE LOCK HAS GONE TO JACK'S HEAD, HE IS VERY IMPRESSED WITH HIMSELF.

 

JACK: Wow, look at that. Now I'm going to try for the mirror.

 

JACK TAKES AIM AT THE MIRROR BUT JENNIFER GRABS HIS HAND.

 

JENNIFER: No Jack, are you crazy. Now we're going to help Isabella.

JACK: Well of course we're going to help Isabella.

 

JENNIFER PUTS THE GUN ON THE DRAWERS AND DRAGS JACK OUT THE DOOR. ON THE WAY HE STOPS FOR A SECOND TO ADMIRE HIS HANDIWORK.

 

JENNIFER: Come on let's go.

JACK: Alright, let's go. Watch your step. Wow that was a good shot.

SCENE SEVEN: ISABELLA HAS GONE WITH ERNESTO. JULIE, VICTOR AND ROMAN ARE STILL IN THE BALLROOM. THEY THINK THAT THEY SHOULD FIND JACK AND JENNIFER AND TELL THEM WHAT HAS HAPPENED. JUST THEN JACK AND JENNIFER HURRY IN, HOLDING HANDS.

 

JACK: Ah Roman! We're looking for Isabella.

ROMAN: Where in the hell have you two been?

JENNIFER: Well we were locked in our room okay. Roman you have to do something, you have to stop him.

ROMAN: Stop who?

JACK: Ah....Ernesto.

JULIE: How do you know about Ernesto?

JACK: Ah, that's not important. We just have to make sure that Ernesto doesn't take Isabella off the ship.

VICTOR: Why not?

JENNIFER: Because she isn't safe with him Victor.

ROMAN: Why not, it's her father.

JACK: Ah, no it's not!

JENNIFER: Roman please.

ROMAN: Wai, wai, wait. What did you just say Jack?

 

JACK DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO THEM THE TRUTH.

 

JACK: Ah....we can talk about this later.

ROMAN: No we can talk about it now.

VICTOR: (Frantic) What information do you have? Whatever you have you better tell us.

 

JACK AND JENNIFER ARE WORRIED AND RELUCTANT TO TELL THE SECRET.

 

JULIE: Jennifer, why in the world do you think Ernesto would hurt his own daughter?

JACK: Ah, we can get into the details later. We....

ROMAN: No we can get into the details right now. If you've got something that can help Isabella, spit it out Jack.

VICTOR: What makes you think that Ernesto isn't Isabella's father?

 

JACK AND JENNIFER LOOK AT EACH OTHER.

 

JACK: Um....the diary!

ROMAN: Oh!

VICTOR: You have the missing pages, don't you? DON'T YOU?

JENNIFER: Yes, we do.

JACK: Yes.

VICTOR: DAMMIT, I ASKED YOU FOR THEM.

ROMAN: It's alright Vic, they lied to me too. Have you guys any idea what you've just done?

JENNIFER: Yes Roman, we understand.

JACK: We know, we know, we know. Yeah.

JULIE: Well I'm glad everyone knows. I don't understand anything. Will you please explain to me why Ernesto would harm his own child?

JACK: I ALREADY TOLD YOU, SHE'S NOT HIS CHILD!

JULIE: Well who is she the child of?

JENNIFER: (Beat) Him!

SHE POINTS TO VICTOR.

 

JULIE: Victor! Victor is Isabella's father!

 

EVERYONE IS IN SHOCK.

 

JENNIFER: It's true, you can see for yourself. Jack!

 

JENNIFER SIGNALS JACK TO GIVE THEM THE PAGES. HE IS RELUCTANT BUT HE DRAGS THEM OUT OF HIS PANTS.

 

ROMAN: Jack, what?

JACK: Alright, here they are. Here's the pages.

ROMAN: Well finally. Thanks a lot Jack.

 

ROMAN OPENS THEM AND BEGINS TO READ.

 

ROMAN: "He knows the truth, I'm sure of it. Ernesto found the diary. He know Isabella is not his daughter. He....he knows about Victor and me."

VICTOR: After all these years.

ROMAN: What the hell's this? "I think he's poisoning me!"

VICTOR: What? Let me see that.

 

VICTOR TAKES THE PAGES FROM ROMAN.

 

VICTOR: "It's been happening slowly for weeks. I can feel my strength slowly draining away but I never suspected until tonight and now it's too late."

JULIE: She knew Ernesto was murdering her.

JACK: He killed his own wife!

 

ROMAN, JULIE AND VICTOR ALL STARE AT JACK WHO FEELS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE.

 

VICTOR: "There's nothing I can do know but pray for her safety, my Bella. In the hope that one day, somehow this diary finds it's way into the hands of the man that I love until I die....."

 

JULIE TAKES THE PAGES FROM VICTOR AND FINISHES READING THEM ALOUD.

 

JULIE: "Victor Kiriakis." (Talking to Victor) I'm so sorry Victor.

VICTOR: How could you do that? How could you keep that from me?

ROMAN: What the hell were you thinking of man?

JENNIFER: Roman....

JACK: No, no, no. I did it, I did it. It was my decision. I found the diary. I ripped out the pages. I'm the one who did it.

VICTOR: WHY?

JACK: I didn't do it for you. I did it for Isabella. I didn't want her to go through what I went through.

JENNIFER: (Trying to comfort Jack.) Jack.

JACK: I wanted to keep her from getting hurt. She hates you Victor. She hates you and it's going to kill her to find out that you're her father. I thought is was right. I made a decision and I went with it and nobody could tell me any different. You weren't there!

ROMAN: It's okay man. Look right or wrong, it's a done deal. It happened. What's important right now is Isabella.

 

JACK LOOKS VERY SAD AND WORRIED AND JENNIFER REASSURES HIM BY PUTTING HER HAND ON HIS SHOULDER.

 

JENNIFER: Jack.

JACK: It's okay.

SCENE EIGHT: ROMAN DECIDES THAT IF ERNESTO KILLED HIS WIFE, HE WILL CERTAINLY HURT ISABELLA. THEY ALL DECIDE TO GO LOOKING FOR HER BUT JUST AS THEY ARE ABOUT TO LEAVE THE BALLROOM, ERNESTO APPEARS ON THE STAGE ON A LARGE SCREEN. HE TELLS THEM THAT ONE OF THEM IS A SPY AND THAT THIS PERSON WILL BETRAY THEM ALL. HE TELLS THEM THAT THE SPY IS BO BRADY AND THAT THE REAL BO BRADY IS DEAD AND THAT THIS ONE IS A FAKE. HE ALSO TELLS THEM THAT THEY ARE ALL ABOUT TO DIE. THE SCREEN DISAPPEARS AND HOPE WALKS IN. SHE TELLS THEM THAT BO TRICKED ERNESTO AND HE REALLY IS ALIVE. SHE SAYS THAT ISABELLA IS GONE OFF THE SHIP WITH ERNESTO AND THAT THERE IS A BOMB PLANTED IN THE CARGO HOLD AND BO IS TRYING TO FIND IT. ROMAN GOES TO HELP BO AND HOPE TRIES TO REASSURE THE OTHERS.

 

HOPE: You've got to believe me. Bo is alive!

JACK: Well I know for one, we are all alive and we've got to do something real quick before that bomb goes off. Come on!

JENNIFER: Jack where are you going?

JACK: We're going to find a way to get out of here, come on.

 

JENNIFER FOLLOWS JACK OUT TO THE CORRIDOR.

 

JACK: Come on, if that bomb's going to go off we have to find the life rafts.

SCENE NINE: JACK OPENS AN OUTSIDE DOOR AND THE WIND AND SEA SPRAY DRIVES HIM BACK INSIDE.

 

JENNIFER: JACK NO!

JACK: GET BACK, GET BACK, GET BACK!

 

HE FASTENS THE DOOR.

 

JACK: Come on, we've got to go this way. Come on.

JENNIFER: Where are we going?

JACK: Just come with me!

 

THE SHIP BEGINS TO PITCH IN THE HEAVY SEA AND JACK IS THROWN TOWARDS HER. SHE SCREAMS.

 

JACK: WAIT!

JENNIFER: Oh JACK!

 

JENNIFER AND JACK ARE THROWN AGAINST THE WALL BUT HE GRABS HER.

 

JACK: I gotcha, I gotcha, I gotcha.

JENNIFER: Jack we can't go, it's too dangerous.

JACK: We have to go get the....

JENNIFER: NO!

JACK: (Comforting her) Jennifer, Jennifer, Jennifer, look to me. We're going to be alright okay. Just calm down. See the ship, it's going to calm down, see. It's calming down, see. It's rolling back this way, see. Just stick with me and everything's going to be alright, okay. Just stay with me and I'll make sure nothing happens. Steady see, everything's going to be alright.

JENNIFER: I know we're going to be alright.

JACK: (Surprised) You do?

JENNIFER: We have to be. After what happened tonight....or almost happened. It was almost wonderful. It's just the beginning Jack, right?

JACK: Correction, it's almost the beginning.

 

HE PLACES HIS HAND OVER HERS FOR REASSURANCE.

 

JACK: Well, come on. Let's go back with everybody else. Just stick with me.

SCENE TEN: MEANWHILE IN THE CARGO HOLD, ROMAN AND BO FIND THE BOMB BUT IT IS TOO LATE TO DEFUSE IT. INSTEAD THEY LOCK THE DOOR TO THE HOLD AND TAKE COVER.

SCENE ELEVEN: THE BOMB GOES OFF JUST AS JACK AND JENNIFER GET BACK TO THE BALLROOM. THERE IS A MASSIVE EXPLOSION AND THE THEY ARE ALL THROWN TO THE FLOOR IN RUBBLE. EVERYONE IS UNCONSCIOUS.

 

SCENE ONE: JULIE, VICTOR, HOPE, JACK AND JENNIFER ARE ALL UNCONSCIOUS ON THE FLOOR OF THE BALLROOM. JACK BEGINS TO STIR.

 

JACK: Oh, ooooh, who put out the lights! I guess whoever brought down the house. Jennifer, if....Jennifer!

JENNIFER: Jack.

JACK: Jennif....Jennifer. Don't move, just stay right there.

 

JACK SCRAMBLES OVER THE FLOOR TOWARDS HER, DODGING BROKEN CROCKERY AND GLASS.

 

JACK: ARGH, ARGH! There are you okay?

 

HE CRAWLS TO HER SIDE AND PUTS HIS ARMS AROUND HER. SHE HOLDS HIM AS WELL.

 

JACK: We may be the only ones who are okay.

 

VICTOR STARTS TO STAND UP AND HE HELPS JULIE TO HER FEET. THEY RUSH OVER TO SEE HOW HOPE IS. JACK MEANWHILE IS BRUSHING AWAY THE GLASS FROM JENNIFER'S CLOTHING AND GENERALLY FUSSING OVER HER. HE HELPS HER UP.

 

JACK: Come on, upsy daisy. Oh are you okay?

JENNIFER: Yeah, I'm a little bit shaky. How are you?

JACK: Oh a couple of knocks on the head but it's good for the character or so they say.

VICTOR: Is everything alright here?

JACK: Yeah, yeah.

 

HOPE DECIDES TO LOOK FOR BO BUT BEFORE SHE CAN GO ANYWHERE, BO AND ROMAN ARRIVE. THEY TELL EVERYBODY THAT IT IS TIME TO ABANDON SHIP IMMEDIATELY.

 

JENNIFER: Well our life jackets are in our cabins. We can go get them.

JACK: Well we....I don't.....

 

FORTUNATELY ROMAN WALKS IN WITH SOME LIFE JACKETS HE FOUND NEARBY. HE HANDS THEM OUT TO EVERYBODY. JACK PUTS HIS ON AND THEN HELPS JENNIFER.

 

JACK: No, no, you've got to pull....you got to pull it tight.

JENNIFER: Jack if you say one thing about this being an improvement and you're in trouble.

JACK: Would I say anything about a woman's bodily parts, I ask.....don't answer that. Just pull it tight.

JENNIFER: Jack I got it.

JACK: No let me do it. Let me.

 

HE HELPS JENNIFER TIE UP THE BOW AT THE FRONT, THEN ROMAN TELLS THEM TO HEAD FOR THE LIFE BOATS.

 

JACK: Okay come on. Let's go. OUCH!

 

JACK HAS REMOVED HIS SHOES AND HE TREADS ON SOME BROKEN PLATES. THEY ALL GO OUT TO THE CORRIDOR AND THE BOAT IS REALLY TIPPING NOW. THEY OPEN THE OUTSIDE DOOR AND A HUGE WAVE OF WATER FLOWS IN. EVERYONE SCREAMS AND JACK PROTECTS JENNIFER FROM FALLING. THE MEN HELP THE WOMEN OUTSIDE ACROSS THE SLOPING DECK. FIRST JACK HELPS BO AND ROMAN.

 

JACK: Hang on.

 

JENNIFER MAKES IT TO THE RAIL BUT IS HANGING ON TIGHT TO JACK.

 

JENNIFER: Jack are you okay?

JACK: Of course I'm okay. Just go easy, that's my favorite arm.

 

SHE STRUGGLES WITH HIM AND HE LEANS AGAINST A GATE IN THE RAIL. IT IS NOT LOCKED AND JACK SLIDES DOWN THE SIDE OF THE SINKING SHIP. JENNIFER SCREAMS.

SCENE TWO: JACK IS HOLDING ON TO A LIFE BUOY ATTACHED TO THE SIDE.

 

JENNIFER: JACK, HANG ON!

JACK: THAT'S THE GENERAL IDEA.

 

ROMAN AND BO LEAN OVER HELP HIM BACK ONTO THE DECK. THEY LOCK THE GATE. ROMAN AND BO FIND AN INFLATABLE LIFE RAFT AND PULL THE ROPE THAT INFLATES IT. IT BLOWS UP SUCCESSFULLY AND THEY TIE THE PAINTER (ROPE) TO THE SIDE RAIL AND TOSS THE LIFE RAFT OVERBOARD. THEY THEN TELL EVERYBODY THEY HAVE TO JUMP OVERBOARD AND THEN CLIMB INTO THE RAFT.

 

JACK: It's hell of a jump isn't it?

ROMAN: We don't have much of a choice Jack.

 

BO JUMPS FIRST AND THEN JULIE JUMPS DOWN AND BO HELPS HER INTO THE RAFT. VICTOR FOLLOWS AND CLIMBS IN SUCCESSFULLY. WHEN HE IS IN THE RAFT, JACK AND JENNIFER LINE UP.

 

ROMAN: ARE YOU TWO GOING TOGETHER?

JACK: YEAH.

JENNIFER: YES.

JACK: CAN YOU SWIM?

JENNIFER: YES.

JACK: GOOD, BECAUSE I CAN'T.

 

THEY JUMP TOGETHER HOLDING HANDS AND JENNIFER SWIMS TO THE BOAT WHILE JACK FLOUNDERS AROUND UNTIL HE IS THERE. HE SCRAMBLES OVER THE SIDE.

 

JACK: It's great to be back on terra rubber.

 

HOPE IS SCARED BUT HAS TO JUMP. THEY HELP HER ON BOARD AND THEN ROMAN JUMPS LAST. BO AND ROMAN CLIMB ON BOARD.

 

JACK: Hey, I think I've seen this movie before. Hey there goes Shelley Winters.

JENNIFER: JACK! What do we do now?

 

THEY ALL LOOK UP AND REALIZE THEY FORGOT TO UNTIE THE ROPE FROM THE RAIL.

 

BO: Well things can't get worse.

JACK: What do you mean?

ROMAN: Well if the ship goes down this thing goes with it.

JACK: That's a cheery thought.

 

WHILE ROMAN AND BO ARE TRYING TO UNTIE IT, JACK LOOKS AROUND THE LIFE RAFT FOR SOMETHING TO CUT IT.

 

JACK: We don't have anything here.

THE RAFT NEARLY CAPSIZES BUT THEY MANAGE TO KEEP IT UPRIGHT.

 

JACK: It's no time to panic now.

 

JACK KEEPS LOOKING IN THE POCKETS ON THE SIDE OF THE RAFT AND HE FINDS THE FIRST AID KIT AND THERE IS A SWISS ARMY KNIFE INSIDE.

 

JACK: WAIT A MINUTE, I GOT SOMETHING RIGHT HERE. OH GOD, LOOK A SWISS ARMY! ROMAN.

 

HE HANDS IT TO ROMAN WHO MANAGES TO CUT THE ROPE AND FREE THE RAFT. BO TELLS EVERYBODY TO START PADDLING BECAUSE IF THE BOAT GOES UNDER THEY WILL TOO.

 

JACK: That's a cheery thought.

 

THEY ALL LEAN OVER AND BEGIN PADDLING WITH THEIR HANDS.

 

JENNIFER: JACK!

JACK: WHAT?

JENNIFER: PADDLE.

JACK: OKAY, I'M PADDLING, I'M PADDLING!

BO: Once she goes under, the suction will pull us under.

JACK: Another cheery thought. We're going to swim. You guys get in the water and we'll swim it. It's the only chance we've got.

 

ROMAN AND BO JUMP IN THE WATER AND START TO PULL THE RAFT ALONG. JACK IS ABOUT TO JUMP IN ALSO.

 

JENNIFER: Jack, be careful.

BO: Jack, get in the water.

JACK: Alright.

 

JACK SLIDES IN THE WATER AND RESURFACES. THEN HE LEANS UP AND REASSURES JENNIFER THAT HE IS OKAY AND BEGINS TO PULL THE BOAT ALONG WITH BO AND ROMAN.

 

HOPE: JACK, PADDLE!

JACK: I AM PADDLING. I'm doing one hell of a job.

 

EVERYBODY LEANS TO ONE SIDE TO HELP WITH THE PADDLING AND THE RAFT CAPSIZES AND TIPS EVERYBODY IN THE WATER.
