Peter Hooten: Paul

Orca

Paul

Paul: Hey there, wanna fill her up and check the hood, I'll get the air.
Gas Station Attendant: We're all out.
Paul: Out of air?
Gas Station Attendant: Air, gas, oil, anything.
Paul: Ha-ha, look who're you foolin', I just saw you put some gas in that car, bud.
Umilak: If you try the bus station, you'll find there are no tickets for you either.
Paul: What's the idea?
Umilak: Tell Nolan, that he must accept with his mind what he already knows in his heart. There is no way out but through the sea.
Paul: The whale's gone, there is no whale.
Umilak: He is not gone, he hides and waits in a sea cave. The monster's message to us is clear, we must send him Nolan or he will torment this village without mercy.
Paul: Hoh-ho, this whole damn town's looney.
Umilak: Please, tell your captain, I am not his enemy. I would sail as one of the crew, I could help him. With me or without me, he has no choice but to fight.

Paul: My god, engines astern, engines astern!
[they crash against some ice Paul is getting into a lifeboat]
Captain Nolan: What the hell are you doin'?
Paul: What does it look like? I'm swinging this lifeboat out where it's ready.
Captain Nolan: For an outboard, it can get carried away.
Paul: Well we'll take that chance.
Captain Nolan: Get up here behind that light, swing it around and find me a clear way
Paul: Go on at night with these bergs around? Are you joking?
Captain Nolan: I said, find me a passage!
Umilak: Nolan. You're tired, get some sleep. I'll take care of him. Nolan was right, I think.
Paul: About what?
Umilak: The boat, it's more secure if it's inboard.
Paul: Well that's what makes horse races.
[the whale knocks Paul out of the boat and drags him down underwater]
Rachel: [looks out the window and sees Paul's dead body come up] No! No!

Paul: [the orca has bumped into their boat] it's him.
Captain Nolan: Well it's not bloody Neptune. It's his first contact.
Umilak: How should I steer?
Captain Nolan: Alright.. this is exactly what I thought.
Paul: [picks up shotgun] I've gone out to look out for a better angle if he comes up.
Captain Nolan: Where you going with that gun?
Paul: What are you talking about?
Captain Nolan: It's me he wants to fight. Put down that gun.
[Paul puts down the gun]
Captain Nolan: Steady as she goes, stanby for a depth charge.
Rachel: You can't let off dynamite!
Captain Nolan: What do you want me to do? Climb overboard so you can record the sounds of my being swallowed
Rachel: Don't, don't!
Rachel: Get your hands off!
[the whale knocks into the boat causing him to drop the dynamite and Rachel manages to throw it overboard she vomits over the side of the boat]
Rachel: Will you get your head in!
Paul: Jesus, here he comes!
[the whale comes to the surface then motions Nolan with his tail to follow him]
Captain Nolan: What the hell is he up to? He wants us to follow him. Umilak, change course! Starboard!
[to Rachel]
Captain Nolan: You alright?
Rachel: Yes, I'm fine.
Captain Nolan: Well, I don't know whether to scold ya, or to thank ya, but what's done is done.
[the whale jumps up and grabs Ken and drags him overboard]
Rachel: Ken!

Rachel: Okay Paul, I'll take her.
Paul: I wouldn't have believed it hadn't I seen it, but.. that course just, threaded us through the Cabot Strait to the Gulf of Saint Lawrence.. like he had radar.
Rachel: Sonar, actually.
Paul: Did Nolan radio back what happened to Ken?
Rachel: I don't know.
Paul: I guess he didn't, because if he did we would have been ordered back to the port. You know, you're getting to be about as crazy as he is, Rachel.
Rachel: Turn in now Paul. Try not to dream.

Captain Nolan: It's dead on.
Paul: Dead on what?
Captain Nolan: The Strait of Pen Isle, open seas. He's taking us out of the Gulf, onto the coast of Labrador. I have a funny feeling in me bones this is the last lap, and there's no way out north.
Umilak: Have you ever seen polar ice, Nolan? It can crush a boat like this in a second.
Captain Nolan: Well ice cuts.. both ways. And he'll have to crash right up through it, to find air. Ah, this whale is not as smart as I thought he was.
[They're approaching an iceberg]
Paul: You god-damned crazy bitch, come back and ram us if you're gonna.
Captain Nolan: Ohh, here, take it easy, take it easy! You're doing exactly what he wants you to do. You see he normally follows his victim for about.. week, two weeks, before he hits them.
[tosses him book]
Captain Nolan: Here, read it, page 77. He's trying to drive us crazy.
Paul: Well he's already done a damn good job on you.
Umilak: We've checked the fuel tanks, and done some calculations. There's not enough to take us home.
Captain Nolan: Well, we could pull up at a gasoline station and get a coupla gallons. Ha-ha.
Paul: Dammit, no more wisecracks. We don't have diesel oil to get home.
Captain Nolan: Well now, there's a radar station north-west of Seahorse Point so when the time comes you can send an SOS. They'll send a helicopter, and lift you out.
Umilak: Lift us out? What about you?
Captain Nolan: Me?
[He laughs]
