Navigating Distances on a Raft
Eleanor:
Ahem. So how far is it, um... on the raft?
Tyler: [''Makes a measurement gesture with index finger and thumb'']
About that far on the map.
Eleanor:
Are your fingers to scale?
Tyler:
Yeah.
Eleanor: [''Makes a far wider measurement gesture with index finger and thumb'']
So how much time is that much?
Tyler:
That's different than what I put up.
Eleanor:
All right.
Tyler:
What I did is about a day. Maybe two days.
Eleanor:
Days? Like..
Tyler:
Yeah.
Eleanor: [''Checks phone'']
Okay. Are you kidding? What in the Christ... Hey, Zak, why don't you sit down, bud. You're kind of close to the edge. I don't want you to fall in. Hey, are you hungry? Have you eaten anything?
Zak:
I am not really hungry.
Eleanor:
Well, maybe you just have a bite of something for your blood sugar.
Tyler:
He don't want nothing to eat.
Eleanor:
You know how you get, buddy. I have an apple.
Tyler:
Hey.
Eleanor: [[w:M&M's|some M&M's]
I have ]. What?
Tyler:
Don't do that.
Eleanor:
Don't do what?
Tyler:
Hey, I got an idea. Why don't we keep your training going? Just because we're on a raft doesn't mean we can't stop training, does it? All right, so we're going to do some breathing exercises. She's worried about your blood sugar. We're gonna breathe. Take a deep breath in. Out. Cool. Now, come over here and put your head underwater. I'm gonna time you.
Eleanor:
What? No, no, no, don't do that. Zak.
Tyler: [''To Eleanor'']
No. He can do that. He can do that. He can... there you go. You better stop calling him a retard.
Eleanor:
I have never called anyone a... that word.
Tyler: [''Zak resurfaces'']
Okay. Hold on, listen. When people are saying he's a retard, really what they're saying is he can't do some shit they can do. See, you might not be saying the word "retard", all right, I'll give you that, but you damn sure is making him feel retarded. That ain't gonna help his life. Hey, there we go.
Zak:
Time. How long is that?
Tyler:
Long.
Eleanor:
Not long enough, Zak. Do it again.
Zak: [''Puts head underwater'']
Okay.
Eleanor:
You have got some real nerve talking to me like that. Do you even know what I do? I've spent the last two years of my life volunteering to hold people's hands as they pass away. I talk to them, I feed them, I wipe their asses, I change their clothes, I put them to bed. And I'm the last person they see. Don't act like you know jack shit about me.
Tyler: [''Throws up both hands'']
All right.
Eleanor:
Yeah, maybe he should not be in a retirement home, but I didn't choose that for him. But, that's what's happened and now I am doing the best I can.
Tyler: [''Zak resurfaces with a fish in hand with Tyler grabbing it''; ''Starts pounding fish's head on the platform'']
Oh! Oh! Hey! Oh, shit! Oh! God! Zak! Okay! Yeah! Lunch!
Eleanor:
Zak, did you just catch that with your hands?! How'd you do that?! You're a wild man! Oh my god!
