You all right, Nadine?
It's been a couple months now.
Everything will be all right.
You know, if I had a woman to
drive the boat over to Miami,
they'd be content to get a
service at the end of the month.

Radio announcer: Off the Bahamas,

when a sailboat packed
with immigrants from Haiti
struck a reef and...
More than 100 were rescued.
The search for victims
continues through the rough seas.
Fuck!

It's not

All right. You hear anything,

For sure, no problem.
Should you tell your dad?
No, Roy will figure it out.
Hey. Hey,

They property is my property.
Everything on this island

If I see it,
I'll let you know.
Roy:
Mayday. Mayday.
Captain Roy, over.
Reef crash emergency.
Capsized, stolen contender.
A lot of people in the water.
Full personnel needed...
All vessels turn

What happened?
Nurse: Help me with this one.
Nurse: Another boat
they found on the river.
Contender, they using
for human trafficking.
Hold him down. I have to give
him a shot of Albuterol.
Nurse: Sit him up.
He can't stay lying down.
You're gonna be okay.
You're gonna be...

You okay, son?
Nurse: Roy, I need your help.
Myron, how you doin', boy?
Myron.
Captain Roy!
You think you can handle all of
these problems all by yourself, Roy?
It don't look good for you
or for me
having to report all this
nonsense back to Nassau.
They expect me to handle it
and get to the bottom of it.
We've been calling these south
islands the "wild, wild west"
with all the things
been going on around here.
Yes, and I call this home.
You're getting old, boy.
You're slipping away.
You know they've been
smuggling around these parts
trafficking everything
from coke, pot, live cargo.
You see, captain Roy.
You all are just the same.
You work with the things
of the old time.
Of the land and the ocean.
The damn boat that was stolen
is the boat that capsized.
How do you figure
how that be, huh?
How do you explain?
And how am i gonna look
talking to the tourism minister
when they're watching
the fox and the CNN
with a flood of Haitian bodies
floating in our waters,
from rich, white peoples'
stolen boats?
This island
is my responsibility.
I take care of it,
you understand?
Then do it.
Remember that morning
we named him?
I wanna feel like that again.
And I do too.
I miss you.
Hey, hey.
Jean-Pierre, Jean-Pierre,
oh shit!
Jean-Pierre, hey, hey, hey.
Jean-Pierre, Jean-Pierre.
Fuck, can we get some help?
- Somebody come help, man.
- Help!
- Help!
- Oh, shit.
- Help!
- Help!
Come on.
Just bring it...
He's dead.
She said we have to take
the baby.
What?
She said, "take the baby. "
No, no.
- Listen...
- I can't do this.
- I can't do this.
- Listen to me.
He's got nobody, all right?
I'm here now.
Roy: What's the matter,
eh, girl?
Where doughboy?
He here?
Huh?
Even he ain't real.
Where is he?
Where's doughboy, tell me?
He went to go find myron.
Hey, my friend.
We're fine, okay?
I love you.
Want a beer, boy?
Open!
I'm not gonna say nothing.
I'm gonna tell nobody
about the boat.
You play
your numbers yesterday?
I lost.
But sometimes you win.
Sometimes you lose.
Ain't nothing I can do
about that, huh boy?
If you're gonna do it, do it!
Take your time, boy.
It only happens once.
Sometimes you get
your number called.
Number.
Numbers, numbers.
What are you waiting for?
Yeah, boy.
I like you.
Friendship ain't got
nothing to do with this.
Yeah, you see!
This is how it is.
Men gotta do things
they don't want to do.
I come with the goods,
the merchandise.
I've got great things...
I've got...
Drink! Drink up boy.
Yeah!
People are dead.
People are always dead.
Always.
All right.
Myron: Fuck.
