Scene opens with Jay shaping a board, while Bradin watches, in his shop
Jay: Was I zoning out again?
Bradin: Just wondering what you're feeling when you're shaping a board.
Jay: Well, I try to let the board tell me what it wants to be.
Bradin: Right.
Jay: Hey, some say that in every board there resides the soal of an ancient hawiian monark. That the very instant a surf catches his first wave that his soul becomes inextrinctably joined with that of the kings so that his fate and yours become one of the same
(Erika enters but Jay keeps talking)
Jay: So maybe it's the soul tells me where the curve needs to be.
Bradin: You just make this stuff up don't you
Jay: Hey hundreds of years of surfing and culture of war. I don't need to be making it up
Erika: Aha but that one he's totally making up
Jay: Aw well embelishing I like to call it. Which is how bore becomes war.
Erika: Hey the waves at two brotheres are panning out big time
Jay: Yeah that's a storm coming in
Bradin: It's supposed to be pretty wicked.
Erika: Yeah we can hit some before the sun comes down
Jay: Can't.
Bradin: If you want me to stick around and watch the shop...
Jay: No that's okay. You guys go out. I have to get this baby glassed.
(Jay picks up the board and walks away
Erika: No big deal
(Girl walks in)
Girl: Excuse me, wondering, hoping, praying you'll make some space for a really neat poster.
Erika: Cricket?
Cricket: Is that you hot stuff? (They hug) Oh my god, I heard you were hiding out. Is this your place?
(Jay walks over)
Erika: His (Points to Jay)
Cricket: Reef breaker? I don't believe it. Jay Robertson.
Jay: Hey Cricket
Cricket: I heard you joined a tebet in monestary or something.
Jay: Yeah, I heard that one too
Erika: He started the rumor
(Erika smiles and rolls her eyes and looks over at Jay)
Scene goes to the house where Derrick is in the living room playing on the playstation, Nikki on the computer, and Susannah on the phone.
Susannah: No no I'll fax it over if I can find it.
(Johnny enters)
Susannah: Hey have you seen my sample sheet? It looks like a modeling page?
(Johnny trips on something)
Johnny: Ah no, good luck.
Nikki: Derrick you've been playing that for 2 hours already, give it a rest.
Derrick: I'm on level 8. Jay said there's a secret shortcut.
Nikki: Yeah, well, Jay's not here right now okay?
Susannah: I'll call you back Rachel, okay? Thanks
Johnny: Rachel? Rachel Carney? (Says something I can't make out)
Susannah: Grow up Johnny
Johnny: The last thing I need is Rachel Carney laying around hanging all over me for the next few days.
Susannah: We hired her to shoot our lit book
(Ava enters)
Ava: That's right. A book that's gonna get us into Roth Child's and every other department store up and down the coast
Johnny: Yeah, well, even so.
Ava: It seems to me you benefited from Rachel Carney hanging all over you last year at Ian Straub's Christmas party
Susannah: You benefited all over Ava's desk if I remember
Johnny: I had 4 shots of tequila and she said I looked like Brad Pitt in Legends of the Fall.
Susannah: She was an intern
Johnny: Were there no other photographers you could have used?
Ava: Rachel happens to be good. Actually she's great. You know she just assisted on an armony shoot that landed her at one of the biggest angency in town
Susannah: Yeah, not that you would know because you haven't even called her or mentioned her name since that night
Johnny: And what? She doesn't own a phone?
Ava: Okay what is it going to be? (Ava hold up 2 bathing suits) Madison Avenue beach bunny or party girl?
Susannah: Party Girl
Ava: No that's beach bunny
Susannah: Well then Madison Avenue it is.
Ava: Ugh, nothing like 3 days prepare for a photoshoot that determines your future
Susannah: Peace of cake. Have you seen my sample sheet? Rachel's fax is on the fridge and I said I'd send it to her
Ava: I'll help you find it.
(They start looking through a pile of papers that are set on the railing in the kitchen)
Susannah: Oh look, Sarah and Vince are getting married.
Ava: When?
Susannah: Last weekend. When did this come?
Johnny: I'd say at about the same time this came. Well if they shut our power off at least we'll know why.
Nikki: Derrick! You need to stop this right now. I promised Cameron that I'd tape Real World while he's gone
(Johnny trips over something)
Derrick: Well if you guys hadn't have broken my memory card I would have been able to save this.
(They start to fight for the controller)
Derrick: C'mon.
Nikki: Give it to me
Johnny: Whoa whoa, that's it. Don't worry about it alright?
Nikki: I promised Cameron that I'd do this.
Johnny: Have you seen uh like a listing book, a lot of numbers, names on it?
Nikki: No!
Susannah: Are you sure you're okay with this? I mean , you hate mess. Look, I know you don't want to overschedule the kids or send them to camp when they don't want to gooo (Camera switches to Nikki and Johnny fighting about something) Or nag at them or to ask them to be the maids but this is ridiculous
Ava: Listen Susannah I don't want to be like my father. With his lists and inspections, and charts, they'll hate me. Besides, it's not that bad. Oh look, I think I found your sample sheet.
Johnny: No actually that's my listing book. I've been looking for that.
Susannah: This is my sample sheet.
(Johnny and Susannah throw down their ruined stuff)
Scene goes back to Jay, Bradin, Erika, and Cricket in the surf shop
Cricket: Wow, it all makes sense now. Since we got back from Costa Rica everyone's been talking about the awesome gunners coming out of Playa Linda. (To Erika) What about you?
Erika: Doing some regionals, nothing special. Teaching mostly.
Cricket: That's cool.
Erika: Yeah, Bradin here is one of my punks.
Cricket: Reef they all want to see you.
Jay: They who?
Cricket: Storm's settling in up north at the sand pit. Everyone's going to be there. Sun's going to be there.
Jay: Well tell them I said hi
Cricket: You should just come up. You being the former short board champ-
Jay: Is there something you want? Crick?
Cricket: Poster. For the tour. Just wanted to put one up.
Jay: Sure, if you can find room on the window.
Erika: I'll get it up
Cricket: Thanks hot stuff. It's good to see you're alive Reef. You with the shaved head and a begging bowl. Walking barefoot in catmando or something. It's a gnarly image.
(She leaves)
(Jay throws down his pen)
Jay: I thought this place was ghost proof.
Scene goes to Ava walking down the stairs where Susannah is sitting in the living room
Ava: Coffee. Black. Now.
Susannah: And a lovely good morning too. (Susannah hands Ava a cup of coffee)

(Nikki and Derrick come running in the house)
Derrick: I called it first
Nikki: Oh no you didnt'.
Susannah: Work from home. Have a little peace and quiet.
Ava: Okay, look-
Susannah: Ava, we have a photoshoot starting today.
Ava: I know, it's just we have a lot of people with alot of stuff in not a lot of space.
Susannah: I don't think space is the issue.
(They hear the kids speaking and things crashing and banging)
Susannah: That is the issue.
Ava: Hey, are you guys okay?
Derrick + Nikki: We're fine.
Susannah: These kids they just don't have any rules they don't have any structures
Ava: I know everything has been a little lax but it's summer. They're supposed to be having fun.
Susannah: Look, I'm all for fun but if you don't do something about this I swear-
(They hear loud crashing noises)
Ava: Okay, but no charts.
Scene goes to Ava, Derrick, and Nikki walking into the garage
Ava: We'll make it a game. It'll be fun.
Nikki: But...it's gross in here.
Derrick: And none of this stuff in this garage is even ours.
Ava: True but you're the ones with all the free time on your hands. (Ava laughs) Okay, just think of it as a way to get to know us. I mean, you can learn so much about a person by their stuff. I'll start. (Reaches into a box and pulls out some porn magazines.) (She rolls her eyes) Okay. Take that out to the garbage. See if we fix up the garage we have a lot more room for your stuff. You guys just picture it. We can build shelves, and cubby holes...
Derrick: Just like in school.
Nikki: How are we supposed to know what junk to junk?
Ava: Well chances are if it's still in here nobody really wants it anymore. So, um, we'll make 3 piles. A throw away pile, the give away pile, and the keepers pile. C'mon, I'll bet there's alot of cool stuff to be found in here. (Ava holds up a pirate hat) Look at that, barried treasure. Look, this hat. That says fun.
Scene switches to Johnny walking into the living room
Johnny: Where are my keys?
(Doorbell rings)
Ava: That's Rachel. Johnny? Can you get that?
Johnny: You know what I can do..I can slip out the back she wouldn't even have to know I still live here.
Ava: I know you're down there. What are you doing? Hiding?
(There's another knock on the door)
(Johnny starts to walk out but knocks over some stuff on the table)
Ava: Johnny!!
Johnny: Yeah okay, okay, I'm on it.
(Johnny opens the door and stares at Rachel)
Johnny: Rachel
Rachel: Hey Johnny
(She walks in)
Johnny: So, um can I get you something? Glass of water? A cup of Joe?
Rachel: No thanks, I'm fine.
Johnny: Okay
(Rachel's phone rings)
Rachel: Oh, excuse me
Johnny: Yeah
(Johnny keeps starting at her as she talks)
Rachel: Simon, hey. Yes, they came in last night. They look fantastic. Yeah, um, I gotta talk to you later. (She hangs up)

Jay: You were like 13 how can you remember?
Erika: Everyone remembers the summer of '97

Jay: That's great man.
Bradin: Well, c'mon I wanna show you
Jay: Listen, can I give you some real advice?
Bradin: Sure
Jay: Give it up. Don't waste any more of your time. It's best if you find something else.
Bradin: What are you talking about? You're the one who got me started on all of this
Jay: What, you want me to spell it out for you? You're not that good, okay? You're what surfers call a week end barney. That's it. Save yourself the grief and find another hobby
Bradin: Jay, what's wrong with you?
Jay: You're better off becoming a dentist or something useful. Lock up
(Jay leaves)
Scene switches to Ava walking up the stairs and into the garage

Sun: Dude, would you have come if I invited you?
Jay: No, I suppose not
Sun: So
Jay: So? Why am I here?
(Sun says something that I completely don't understand)

Erika: Jay didn't mean that. He's just a little off balance right now.
Bradin: Going to a surfing competion with his buddies? What's the big deal?
Erika: It's more than that. You see, Jay was like the most amazing surfer to come out of Barand Bay. Won everything in Austraila. Southern Hemisphere actually
Bradin: C'mon
Erika: He was 19 and already tearing up the american tour when the summer of '97 hit. They were at Maverick's when the wind picked up. Godzilla like waves. The whole tournament was about to be shut down but Jay wasn't gonna let Sun show him up. Anyway,he went out and picked up that Blowne Trifecta (Spelling?) ATL MTL PTL. He's lucky he's still walking. Even luckier to be alive.
Bradin: So do you think he might try to compete again?
Erika: He's gone and so is his board. Anything's possible.
Scene goes back to Ava and Susannah doing their photo shoot
Ava: Okay, that's not really working. Let's switch hats.

Ava: Okay, we're ready
Rachel: Excellent. Let's do it.

Johnny: Is that wrong?
Ava: No, it's just very...guy. And I thought you'd changed.
(The phone rings and Johnny answers it)
Johnny: Hello? Yeah. Hang on, Sammy from SoHo sale.
(Nikki comes running in)
Nikki: Is it for me?
Johnny: Nope
Rachel: Okay, take 5
(Johnny follows Nikki inside and sits beside her on the couch)
Johnny: Everything okay?
Nikki : I just don't get why Cameron hasn't called. I mean, he's been gone for 2 days.
Johnny: Well why don't you call him? Take the bull by the horns. Don't tell me you're one of these rules women. Guys love it when girls call them.
(Rachel listens in)
Nikki: Well I'm not calling him.
Johnny: I guess girls love it when guys call them?
(Nikki sighs and walks away)
Scene goes to Derrick and Susannah in the garage
Susannah: Oh wow, I love these shoes.

Rachel: I don't think my ego could handle it
Johnny: C'mon I'm sure you look great in nothing. I didn't mean..
Rachel: It's okay. It's okay.
Johnny: Susannah told me about your signing with Gignic. That's great. Maybe, I don't know, we can grab a drink sometime and you can tell me all about it. You still hanging at decksters?
Rachel: Not really
Johnny: Ah, woudn't think so. You seem like a Lola's kind of gal now
Rachel: What's that supposed to mean?
Trey: Lola's? Lola's is so last week. (hold ups shorts) Where does Ava want these? I'll give them to her
Johnny: Actually those are mine.
Trey: Thanks for the loan. There's girls in the shower together. Worth a peek
Rachel: You're such a jerk
Trey: Oh you love me (He opens up his towel around his waist)
Rachel: Stop it.

Jay: Ask these guys. I'm here against my will.
Cricket: We kidnapped him.
Guy: It was pretty rad though.
Jay: How did you know I was here?
Erika: You vanished. I figured you'd show up here. So what's the plan?
Jay: Oh, well I'm going to go have a few more of these freaks and then I'm going to head out.
Erika: So then?
Jay: That's my plan.
Erika: Set up camp then. No sense in leaving till the morning. C'mon Bradin
(Erika, and Bradin leave)
Sun: So, it's you and hot stuff again eh?
Jay: That seems to be where things are heading yeah.
Sun: That's cool
Jay: Why'd you bring me here Luey?

Jay: Since the beginning, I know. Seriously, what's up?
Sun: Seriously? I'm in a slum man.
Jay: Leuy the Sun Ray? In a slum? Well things have changed since I left.
Sun: No joke man. Last couple of times out I screwed the pooch big time. This could be the last run. Just want to go out with some style you know?

Jay: Hey hey hey. You're not going to lose me. Ever.

Jay: Ever
