Jamie: MAJOR WHOOP.
I BET IT'LL BE TOO CLOUDY TO SEE.
WELL, MAYBE THIS TIME YOU'LL BE LUCKY.

I'LL TELL HER YOU CALLED.

YOU'LL SEE HIM AT SCHOOL.
IS HE YOUR BOYFRIEND?
SHE'S TOO YOUNG FOR A BOYFRIEND.
MORNING, TROOPS.
DID YOU CALL MASON?
YEAH. THE MEETING'S AT 5:00.
5:00?
[ SIGHS ] SORRY.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT -- YOU COOK FOR ME TONIGHT,
AND I'LL TAKE AN EXTRA NIGHT NEXT WEEK.
THAT LEAVES YOU ABOUT 100 BEHIND.
CAN'T YOU GO TO THE GYM TOMORROW?
THAT'S NOT THE POINT. IT'S MY ONE NIGHT OFF.
LOOK, I CAN'T GET OUT OF THIS, EM.
I NEED THE GO-AHEAD. MY CREW'S JUST SITTING THERE.

NOT WITHOUT OLIVIA'S APPROVAL.
NO RUSH -- ANYTIME NEXT WEEK.
YOU TELL OLIVIA I'M MEETING THOSE IDIOTS ON TUESDAY.
I NEED A DAY TO REVIEW.
OH, AND MAKE SURE MENDELSON IS CALENDARED.
THAT'S DONE.

THERE AREN'T ANY. I'VE DONE IT MYSELF.

"IF YOU ARE READING THIS, THAT MEANS I AM GONE.
"I'M HOPING IT'S LATER RATHER THAN SOONER,
"BUT WHATEVER IT IS, IT'S MY TIME,
"SO KNOW I HAVE GONE PEACEFULLY.
"RAISING YOU WAS A JOY, AND, AS IT TURNS OUT,
"THE BEST THING I DID WITH MY LIFE.
"I HOPE I'VE DONE YOUR MOTHER AND FATHER PROUD.
"YOU CERTAINLY HAVE.
"DON'T BE UPSET WITH ME FOR NOT TELLING YOU I WAS SICK.
"I DIDN'T WANT TO BE A BURDEN,
"AND I WANT YOU TO REMEMBER ME THE WAY I WAS.
"I KNOW HOW BUSY YOU ARE,
"BUT I HAVE A LAST REQUEST THAT ONLY YOU CAN FULFILL.
"I WOULDN'T ASK IF IT WASN'T IMPORTANT.
"I WANT YOU TO TAKE MY ASHES BACK
"FOR BURIAL ON MY FAMILY'S LAND IN KAUAI
"TO TAKE PART IN A HAWAIIAN RITUAL --

"IF YOU DO THAT FOR ME,
"THEN I'LL HAVE LEFT NOTHING UNFINISHED ON THIS EARTH

OH, EM...
I'M SORRY.
IT WAS OVARIAN CANCER.
[ SIGHS ]
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW SHE WAS SICK.
WHY DIDN'T SHE TELL ME?
[ SIGHS ] YOU WEREN'T REALLY THAT CLOSE ANYMORE.
JUST BECAUSE WE DIDN'T SEE EACH OTHER DOESN'T MEAN WE WEREN'T CLOSE.
WE TALKED. WE...MADE PLANS.
BUT SOMETHING ALWAYS SEEMED TO COME UP FOR BOTH OF US.
[ SIGHS ]
I SHOULD'VE BEEN THERE.
RELATIONSHIPS CHANGE.
IF SHE'D REALLY NEEDED YOU, SHE WOULD'VE CALLED.
THAT WASN'T HER WAY.
EMMA, FOR WHATEVER REASON, SHE CHOSE NOT TO TELL YOU.
IF SHE HAD, YOU WOULD'VE BEEN THERE.
SHE DIDN'T GIVE YOU THE OPTION.
SHE ASKED ME TO TAKE HER ASHES HOME.

WHERE HER FAMILY IS -- KAUAI.
[ SCOFFS ]
THAT'S A 12-HOUR FLIGHT.
IT WAS A LAST REQUEST.
I HAVE TO GO THERE AT SOME POINT.
[ SIGHS ] WHEN?
NO DISRESPECT TO LILY, BUT YOU'RE WORKING 10-HOUR DAYS.

SINCE SHE WAS 18.

PLEASE.

YES. A LITTLE RAIN CAME IN THROUGH THE ROOF...
NOT THAT IT MATTERS.
DID I NOT PUT LILY'S ROOF ON THE LIST?
I RAN OUT OF TIME. I'LL GET TO IT.
SOON -- BEFORE THE NEXT RAIN.
OH, NO, THANKS. I DON'T REALLY EAT BREAKFAST.
YOU DO NOW.
I WAS LOOKING AT THE FIELD BY THE HOUSE.
I'VE NEVER SEEN SO MANY FLOWERS.
YEAH, THIS IS A FLOWER FARM.
AND YOU SELL TO THE HOTELS?
THAT WAS YEARS AGO.
WE'VE BRANCHED OUT SINCE THEN.
WE MOSTLY SELL TO PERFUME MANUFACTURERS.
WE'RE ALSO TRYING TO GROW NATIVE MEDICINAL PLANTS.
SPEAKING OF WHICH...
I'M LATE FOR WORK.
ENJOY YOUR BREAKFAST.
[ CHUCKLES ] SEE YOU.
[ CLEARS THROAT ]
THANKS, MOM.
[ SMOOCHES ]
HE RUNS THE FARM?
FOR NOW.
A MAINLANDER BOUGHT THE PROPERTY NEXT DOOR.
HE SAYS IT'S GOOD TO FARM,
BUT HE SAID THE SAME THING ABOUT SOME LAND ON MAUI...
THEN BUILT HOUSES.
THAT'S PROGRESS, I GUESS.
OVERDEVELOPMENT IS PROGRESS?
IT'S STEALING OUR WAY OF LIFE!
I DIDN'T MEAN IT WAS RIGHT.
WE COULD LOSE EVERYTHING.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
THE WATER WE USE RUNS THROUGH THAT PROPERTY.
IF HE BUILDS, IT WILL CUT OFF OUR WATER SUPPLY...
AND THE FARM WILL DIE.
HE CAN'T DO THAT, CAN HE?
WE ARE LOOKING INTO IT.
JULIA IS.
JULIA?
SHE'S OUR PARTNER ON OUR FARM.
SHE LIVES NEXT DOOR.
SHE'S A LAWYER.
NO. WE CANNOT AFFORD ONE.
I UNDERSTAND YOU ARE A LAWYER.
OH, NO, I'M JUST A PARALEGAL.
I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH HELP I COULD BE,
BUT I'D BE GLAD TO LOOK AT THE PAPERWORK IF YOU'D LIKE.
WE WOULD APPRECIATE IT.
JULIA HAD A DIFFICULT LIFE.
JUST REMEMBER... SHE MEANS WELL.
JULIA, THIS IS EMMA BURKE. SHE'S GOING TO HELP.
HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO ME?
WE NEED HELP, AND SHE'S OFFERING IT.
I'M DECLINING.
IT IS NOT YOUR DECISION.
WHAT IS IT YOU WANT?
FOR STARTERS, WHAT DOCUMENTS EXIST --
PERMITS, COPIES OF STATE AND LOCAL CODES.
I'LL MAKE COPIES OF WHAT I HAVE, AND I'LL DROP THEM OFF.
I WANT EMMA TO SEE THE PROPERTY.
I'M BUSY.
I DON'T HAVE TO SEE IT.
SHE HAS TO KNOW WHAT IS AT STAKE,
AND MY CAR WILL NOT MAKE IT UP THAT HILL.
[ SIGHS ]
HAVE YOU MET KALA?
[ MAN SHOUTS INDISTINCTLY ]
HE PICKED ME UP AT THE AIRPORT.
IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL.
HOW MANY ACRES?
24.
OH, THAT'S THE SOURCE OF OUR WATER SUPPLY.
[ SIGHS DEEPLY ] YOUR FAMILY -- ARE THEY HERE?
I CAME WITHOUT THEM.
IS THERE ANY WAY TO REDIRECT THE WATER IF THEY BUILD?
NOT THAT WE'D BE ABLE TO AFFORD.
IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S NOTHING TO STOP THEM FROM BUILDING,
IF THAT'S WHAT THEY WANT TO DO...
UNLESS THE ARCHAEOLOGY REPORT COMES BACK POSITIVE.
POSITIVE?
SHOWING THAT THERE'S A NATIVE BURIAL SITE ON THE PROPERTY.
YOUR CHILDREN -- THEY MUST MISS YOU.
OH, I DOUBT IT.
MY HUSBAND LETS THEM GET AWAY WITH MURDER.
[ CHUCKLES ]
YOU MUST MISS THEM.
ACTUALLY, I'M ENJOYING THE TIME BY MYSELF.
DOES THAT SOUND AWFUL?
[ SIGHS ]
I-I'M NOT QUALIFIED TO SAY.
IT WOULD BE A SHAME TO BUILD ANYTHING UP THERE.
AMEN TO THAT.

IT'S SO DIFFERENT HERE THAN LIVING IN BOSTON.
YOU WAKE UP TO SUNSHINE EVERY MORNING.
THERE'S FLOWERS EVERYWHERE.
IT'S JUST LIKE LILY SAID.
HER ASHES.
I SHOULD'VE BROUGHT THEM.
NO.
LET HER STAY IN HER HOUSE FOR NOW.
I'M NOT READY TO SEE HER LIKE THAT.
PART OF LILY'S LAST REQUEST...
WAS THAT I HELP WITH THE HOPONO ON MONDAY.
NO, THE SERVICE IS ON MONDAY.
THE HO'O PONOPONO IS SOMETHING ELSE.
IT MEANS TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT.
YOU TALK UNTIL YOU EACH FORGIVE.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
LILY SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU.
IT IS THE ONE THING...
WE EVER REALLY FOUGHT ABOUT.
SHE DID NOT WANT YOU TO KNOW
YOUR FATHER COULD DO SUCH A THING.
MY FATHER?
HE WAS A COLD MAN.
NO, HE WASN'T...
NOT TO ME.
MAYBE SO...
BUT HE TREATED OTHERS CRUELLY.
YOU DIDN'T KNOW HIM.
OH, YES, I KNEW HIM...
YEARS AGO, WHEN HE WAS STATIONED ON THIS ISLAND.
I WISHED HE HAD NEVER COME.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
YOUR MOTHER...
LILY WOULD NOT TELL YOU.

WHY DIDN'T ANYONE EVER TELL ME?
NOT LILY...
MY FATHER.
ASK JULIA.
I'M ASKING YOU!
IT'S NOT FOR ME TO SAY.
SO YOU CAN TALK BEHIND MY BACK, BUT YOU WON'T TELL ME TO MY FACE?
IT'S JULIA'S PLACE TO EXPLAIN, NO ONE ELSE'S.

THEN YOU'LL NEVER KNOW.

I DON'T THINK ANYONE MEANT TO DO THAT.

BUT THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.

THE GOOD NEWS IS YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING...
AT LEAST TODAY...
OR TOMORROW.
IS THAT THE ISLAND WAY?
NO, THAT'S THE KALA WAY.
[ CHUCKLES ] YOU KNOW WHAT YOU NEED?
TO GET IN THE WATER -- IT'S HEALING.
I'M NOT THE BEST SWIMMER.
I AM.
I BETTER GET BACK.

WE HAVE TO TALK.
NO, WE DON'T.
I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU'RE UPSET.
UPSET? THAT'S THE UNDERSTATEMENT OF THE YEAR.

NO, YOU GET TO NEED ANYTHING FROM ME.
I DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH YOU.
I DON'T WANT TO KNOW YOU...EVER!

OH. PLEASE COME IN.
HAS THE BUYER APPLIED FOR ANY PERMITS YET?
NOT AS OF A WEEK AGO.
EMMA, I DIDN'T LEAVE YOU.
I WAS 19. I WAS NAIVE.
I'D NEVER BEEN OFF THIS ISLAND.
AND IF YOUR FATHER HAD JUST STOOD UP TO HIS FAMILY --
MY FATHER DIED 10 YEARS AGO.
WHERE WERE YOU THEN?
BY THEN, IT WAS TOO LATE.
NO, THAT WAS A WINDOW. NOW IT'S TOO LATE.
MAY I HAVE THE FILE, PLEASE?
[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]
SIGN HERE. THANK YOU. [ TELEPHONE RINGS ]
HMM. A USE PERMIT WAS APPLIED FOR LAST FRIDAY.
THAT MEANS THE ARCHAEOLOGY REPORT IS DONE.

I DON'T NEED TO WAIT. THANK YOU.
YOU'RE WELCOME.

[ CHUCKLES ] YOU STILL HAVE THE MAINLAND SICKNESS.
THE WHAT?
YOU WANT EVERYTHING NOW.
IT'S THE HAOLE WAY.
PEOPLE COME FROM THE MAINLAND, IN A HURRY, LIKE YOURSELF.
THE ISLAND RESTORES THEM, AND THEY WANT A PIECE OF THE MAGIC.
SO THEY BUY UP NATIVE LAND TO BUILD MANSIONS
THAT GET USED ONCE A YEAR.
LAST TIME I CHECKED I WASN'T BUYING UP YOUR LAND.
HERE YOU GO, KALA.
YOU'RE RIGHT. I FORGOT WHO I WAS TALKING TO.
I GUESS WE BOTH HAVE OUR SORE SPOTS.
I GUESS WE DO.
IT'S JUST, UM...

BUT THIS ISN'T WHERE I WAS TAKING YOU.
DO YOU BELIEVE IN MAGIC?
TO GET THERE, WE SWIM AROUND THE ROCK,
DIVE DOWN THROUGH A TUNNEL,
THEN WE COME UP INSIDE THE BLUE ROOM.
YOU WANT ME TO SWIM UNDERWATER AND COME UP IN A CAVE?

JOIN US.
THANK YOU.
WE HAD TO TAKE TWO PLANES.
REALLY? WAS IT YOUR FIRST FLIGHT?
MY FIRST AND SECOND.
OF COURSE, AND WHEN YOU GO HOME,
IT WILL BE YOUR THIRD AND YOUR FOURTH.
YEAH.
NEIL, YOUR FOOD'S GETTING COLD.
[ SLOW GUITAR MUSIC PLAYS ]
HAVE YOU FELT A TRADE WIND?
I DON'T KNOW. WHAT IS THAT?
I'M NOT SURE.
THEY HAPPEN IN TROPICAL PLACES.
AH...WELL, THEN, I MUST HAVE FELT ONE,
AND I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT.
I MISSED YOU, MOM.
OH...I MISSED YOU, TOO.
GOOD NIGHT, SWEETHEART.
GOOD NIGHT.
[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]
COME IN.
[ UP-TEMPO ROCK 'N' ROLL BLARES THROUGH HEADPHONES ]
HEY.
[ SIGHS ]
[ MUSIC STOPS ]
SO, WHAT DO YOU THINK?
OF WHAT?
THE ISLAND.
I GUESS IT'S ALL RIGHT... FOR PARADISE.
[ LAUGHS ]
YOU LAUGHED.
THAT WAS FUNNY.
YOU DON'T USUALLY GET ME.
I GET A LOT MORE THAN YOU THINK I DO.
I'M GLAD TO SEE YOU.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
I'M LOOKING AT MY BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER.
EXCEPT FOR THE HAIR AND THE PIERCINGS.
WHY DON'T YOU LIKE JULIA?
WHO SAID I DIDN'T?
WAS IT SCOTT?
WHAT?
ON THE SOFA.
UGH! WE WERE JUST KISSING!
YOU SURE YOU'RE READY FOR SEX?
HELLO! WE WERE KISSING!
I LIKE HIM.
OKAY, JUST MAKE SURE YOU DON'T GO TOO FAR.
I WANT YOU SAFE.
ARE YOU DONE?
YES.
[ SIGHS ]
WHAT A NICE SURPRISE,
YOUR FAMILY COMING ALL THIS WAY TO SEE YOU.
YES, ISN'T IT?
I LIKE TO MIND MY OWN BUSINESS,
BUT I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU MY TWO CENTS ANYWAY.
JULIA DESERVES A CHANCE. YOU SHOULD TALK TO HER.
THAT'S NEVER GONNA HAPPEN.
YOU ARE AS STUBBORN AS SHE IS.
I'M NOTHING LIKE HER.
WHAT HAPPENED WAS A LIFETIME AGO.
YES... MY LIFETIME.
Kala: THE BEST FISH YOU'VE EVER HAD.
ONO, MAHIMAHI, GROUPER. I'LL TAKE YOU OUT IF YOU'D LIKE.
I HAVEN'T BEEN FISHING FOR YEARS.
I WOULD LOVE TO.
I THINK I'LL TURN IN.
OH, OKAY. I'LL GO WITH YOU.
MAYBE TOMORROW IF THE WEATHER'S GOOD.
GREAT. GOOD NIGHT.
GOOD NIGHT.
HE'S A NICE GUY.
KEHAU'S A TRIP. I LIKE HER.
[ CHUCKLES ]
I DIDN'T EXPECT TO SEE JULIA.
YOU KNOW, I LOOK AT YOU EVERY DAY.
YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL.
THE ISLAND SEEMS TO AGREE WITH YOU.
I'M SORRY.
I'M TIRED.
SURE.
WHAT'S THERE TO DO HERE
IF YOU'RE NOT INTO WATER OR TREES?
[ CHUCKLES ] NOT MUCH.
THERE'S MORE GOING ON IN HONOLULU.
THAT'S WHERE I LIVE.
BUT I MIGHT HAVE TO COME TO STAY HERE --
PART OF A TOUGHLOVE PROGRAM.
WHAT'D YOU DO?
GOT CAUGHT BREAKING INTO A HOUSE.
WHY'D YOU DO THAT?
WHY NOT?
SO, HOW LONG HAVE YOUR PARENTS BEEN DIVORCED?
THEY AREN'T.
THAT'S NOT GOOD.
WHY?
YOUR MOM'S BEEN HANGING OUT WITH MY DAD.
MAYBE...BUT NOT THAT WAY.
YEAH...I'M PRETTY SURE... THAT WAY.
STAY AWAY FROM MY FAMILY.
WELL, GOOD MORNING TO YOU, TOO.
I MEAN IT. STAY AWAY.
I RUINED MY LIFE
LETTING YOUR FATHER AND YOUR GRANDFATHER TELL ME WHAT TO DO,
AND I DON'T GIVE THAT POWER TO ANYONE ANYMORE --
NOT EVEN YOU.
MY FATHER ISN'T THE ONE WHO LEFT.
YOU WERE.
I WAS PUSHED OUT.
I DON'T CARE ENOUGH TO LISTEN.
EMMA, YOU'RE A COWARD, JUST LIKE I USED TO BE.
YOU DON'T KNOW THE FIRST THING ABOUT ME.
IT WAS YOUR GRANDFATHER.
I WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR HIS IVY LEAGUE SON.
I DON'T CARE!
I COULD LEAVE WITH A SETTLEMENT OR WITH NOTHING.
EITHER WAY, I COULDN'T TAKE YOU.
WELL, I HOPE THEY MADE IT WORTH YOUR WHILE.
THERE'S NOT ENOUGH MONEY IN THE WORLD
THAT COULD PAY ME FOR WHAT I GAVE UP.
THEN WHY DID YOU?
YOU COULD HAVE STAYED. YOU COULD HAVE SEEN ME.
WELL, MAYBE I COULD HAVE, BUT THEY SAID I COULDN'T,
AND THINGS WERE DIFFERENT BACK THEN.
THEY WERE THE ONES WITH THE MONEY
AND THE LAWYERS AND THE POWER, NOT ME!
SO YOU GAVE AWAY THE ONLY THING YOU REALLY HAD...
ME.
HMM.
[ SIGHS ]
Oh, my God.
[ SIGHS ]
I'M GOING FOR A NAP.
IT'S ONLY 9:30.
YEAH, WELL, THAT MAKES IT, UH, 3:30 BOSTON TIME.
OKAY, I'LL FIND SOMEONE ELSE.
HOW WAS YOUR WALK?
IT WAS GOOD. IS EMMA BACK FROM HER RUN?
SHE DID NOT GO. SHE WENT INTO TOWN WITH KALA.
OH. UH, YOU KNOW WHERE?
THE COUNTY BUILDING.
THE REPORTS THEY WERE WAITING FOR CAME IN.
Okay. THANKS.
[ SIGHS ]
THEY DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING.
THAT CAN'T BE.
THAT LAND WAS LIVED ON FOR GENERATIONS --
MAYBE NOT IN THE LAST HUNDRED YEARS,
BUT THERE HAS TO BE A BURIAL SITE
UP THERE SOMEWHERE.
THE STATE IS SATISFIED. THE LAND ISN'T SACRED.
WHAT ABOUT THE USE PERMIT?
THE WORDING IS VAGUE,
BUT...THERE'S A CLAUSE GIVING THEM THE OPTION TO BUILD.
HOW MANY HOUSES -- TWO, FOUR?
IT JUST SAYS, "MULTIPLE DWELLINGS."
SON OF A BITCH!
YOU SAID YOU WERE GONNA FARM!
CHANGED MY MIND.
I'VE DONE NOTHING ILLEGAL.
IT'S NOT YOUR LAND!
WELL, FORTUNATELY FOR ME, IT IS.
KALA, NO!
COME ON!
[ GRUNTS ]
HEY.
EMMA.
SO...
WHAT'S THE DEAL?
DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING WITH HIM?
NO.
ALMOST.
[ SCOFFS ]
YOU'RE GONE TWO MINUTES, AND...
THERE WAS A MOMENT.
HE JUST MADE ME FEEL ALIVE...
AND FREE...
LIKE I WASN'T ME ANYMORE.
WELL, YOU ARE YOU...
WITH PEOPLE DEPENDING ON YOU.
I KNOW.
I DON'T WANT TO LOSE YOU.
BUT I FEEL LIKE I'VE ALREADY LOST MYSELF.
I WAKE UP EVERY MORNING AND GO TO A JOB I HATE
TO SUPPORT A LIFE
THAT DOESN'T EVEN FEEL LIKE IT'S MINE ANYMORE.
WE'RE ALL SO BUSY GOING OUR OWN WAYS,
I DON'T KNOW WHAT MATTERS ANYMORE.
YOU MATTER. YOU'RE THE WOMAN I LOVE.
YOU'RE SMART, YOU'RE FUNNY, YOU'RE...
YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL...
AND YOU'RE STRONG.
AND A LONG TIME AGO, YOU FELL IN LOVE WITH ME.
DON'T FALL OUT OF LOVE, EMMA.
PLEASE DON'T.
Neil: ARE THERE VOLCANOES HERE?
NOT ACTIVE ONES... AT LEAST ON KAUAI.
WHY DID THEY BECOME INACTIVE?
BECAUSE...THE GODS WERE NOT ANGRY ANYMORE.
THAT'S NOT SCIENTIFIC.
NOT EVERYTHING IS.
HOW COME LILY HAD A HOUSE HERE AND NEVER CAME BACK?
SHE WAS PLANNING TO
BUT WANTED TO STICK CLOSE TO EMMA.
MY MOM?
YES. YOU FIND THAT SURPRISING?
WELL, YEAH, CONSIDERING THEY HARDLY SAW EACH OTHER.
OF COURSE THEY SAW EACH OTHER.
NOT SO MUCH.
ARE YOU SURE?
YEAH.
[ SIGHS ] ONE MORE TO GO.
YOU WANT TO HELP?
WHY DID YOU SAY THAT ABOUT MY MOM AND YOUR DAD?
BECAUSE I KNOW HIM.
YEAH, WELL, I KNOW MY MOTHER.
[ INSECT BUZZING ]
WHATEVER, YOU KNOW.
[ SIGHS ] I HATE THIS PLACE.
ALL I DO IS WORK... AND FOR NO PAY.
MONEY MUST BE TIGHT.
YEAH, WELL, IT WOULDN'T BE IF THEY'D SELL THESE FIELDS.
THEY'RE WORTH MILLIONS.
BET YOU'D LIKE YOUR CUT.
[ CHUCKLES ] I WOULD IF I HAD ONE.
SHE'D GIVE YOU SOMETHING. SHE'S NOT THAT TIGHT.
WHO?
YOU DON'T KNOW?
KNOW WHAT?
JULIA'S YOUR GRANDMOTHER.
SHE MARRIED SOME GUY HERE, WENT BACK WITH HIM TO BOSTON.
DIDN'T WORK OUT...
EXCEPT FOR HAVING YOUR MOM.
THAT'S WHY LILY MOVED THERE...
TO BRING HER UP.
SO LILY JUST GAVE EVERYTHING UP AND WENT?
THEY WERE BEST FRIENDS, LIKE SISTERS.
IT SOUNDS WEIRD, BUT IT'S VERY HAWAIIAN.
A LOT OF TIMES,
THE GRANDPARENTS OR A RELATIVE WILL BRING UP A KID.
WHY?
ECONOMICS, TO PASS DOWN THE CULTURE...
A LOT OF REASONS, BUT BOTTOM LINE --
THE KIDS HERE BELONG TO THE WHOLE FAMILY.
IS IT TRUE?! SHE'S YOUR MOTHER?!
YES, AND BEFORE YOU ACCUSE ME OF WITHHOLDING INFORMATION,
I JUST FOUND OUT MYSELF.
WHEN, FIVE MINUTES AGO?!
THAT'S MY BUSINESS.
I DON'T ANSWER TO YOU. I'M THE ADULT.
I HATE YOU!
THE HAPPY FAMILY PICTURE YOU PAINT,
I'M NOT EVEN IN IT!
I'M ALWAYS LAST! NO, YOU'RE NOT.
YOU BLOW ME OFF, JUST LIKE YOU DO EVERYONE ELSE!
HEY, I DON'T BLOW ANYONE OFF.
NO? HOW ABOUT LILY?
STOP IT!
NO, YOU STOP IT!
LYING TO EVERYONE, INCLUDING YOURSELF!
DO YOU KNOW WHY LILY NEVER MOVED BACK HERE?
'CAUSE SHE WANTED TO BE CLOSE TO YOU!
THAT'S NOT TRUE.
SHE STAYED IN BOSTON FOR YOU, AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN CARE!
YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT ANYONE BUT YOURSELF!
YOU KNOW, I'VE TRIED TO BE WHO YOU WANT ME TO BE...
BUT I GIVE UP.
I'M NOT SMART LIKE NEIL.
JAMIE.
WHY DIDN'T YOU HAVE TIME FOR ME?!
YOU DID FOR NEIL AND FOR YOUR STUPID JOB...
AND DADDY.
WELL, AT LEAST,
THAT'S BEFORE YOU STARTED SLEEPING WITH KALA.
WHAT?!
BILLY TOLD ME.
YOU'RE DOING EVERYTHING YOU ACCUSE ME OF.
WELL, BILLY'S WRONG!
AND I'M YOUR MOTHER! YOU DON'T TALK TO ME THAT WAY!
I'M NEVER TALKING TO YOU AGAIN,
BUT I WILL BE TALKING TO DAD.
GET OUT OF HERE!
NO, NO WAIT. I'LL LEAVE.
I WAS NEVER VERY GOOD AT BEING A MOTHER ANYWAY.
MAYBE IT'S GENETIC!
IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT, JAMIE -- ME GONE?!
WELL, YOU'VE GOT IT!
MOM!
[ GASPS ]
LILY?
HELP ME.
[ SOLEMN HAWAIIAN MUSIC PLAYS ]
Lily: MALAMA AUMAKUA.
[ KNOCKS ]
SO...YOU'RE MY GRANDMOTHER.
SO, WHY ARE YOU HERE?
OBVIOUSLY TO CHECK YOU OUT.
IT'S NOT EVERY DAY YOU FIND OUT YOU HAVE A GRANDMOTHER.
IN LINEAGE ONLY.
I CARRIED YOUR MOTHER, NOTHING MORE.
THAT'S COLD.
IT'S A FACT.
I GAVE HER UP SIX MONTHS AFTER SHE WAS BORN.
WHY?
THAT'S NOT SOMETHING I'M GONNA DISCUSS WITH YOU
BEFORE YOUR MOTHER AND I HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO TALK.
YOU HAVEN'T TALKED?
NO.
CAN I ASK YOU A QUESTION ABOUT YOU?
YOU MAY.
MY GRANDFATHER...
DID YOU LOVE HIM?
VERY MUCH.
DID HE LOVE YOU?
AT ONE TIME, I THOUGHT HE DID.
HE NEVER GOT MARRIED AFTER YOU.
I HEARD, BUT IT WASN'T SOMETHING I WANTED TO KNOW.
WHY NOT?
I DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW ABOUT ANYTHING.
NOT EVEN ABOUT MY MOM?
IT WASN'T MY LIFE ANYMORE.
BUT IT WAS...AND IS!
YOU KNOW, I'M NOT SOME RANDOM PERSON
WHO CAME KNOCKING AT YOUR DOOR.
YOU'RE CONNECTED TO ME. YOU HELPED MAKE ME.
I'M OUT OF HERE.
OH, PLEASE DON'T GO.
I'M -- I'M SORRY.
I HAVE NO RIGHT TO BE TALKING TO YOU LIKE THIS.
I SHOULD HAVE TURNED YOU AWAY.
THAT'S WHAT EMMA WOULD HAVE WANTED,
BUT I -- I COULDN'T.
I WANT TO KNOW YOU.
Emma: KEHAU?
I'M SORRY.
FOR WHAT?
FOR KEEPING LILY FROM COMING HOME.
IT'S HER CHOICE, NOT YOURS.
BUT YOU MUST RESENT ME.
[ Voice breaking ] I DID...
BUT I UNDERSTOOD.
IN HER EYES, YOU WERE HER CHILD.
BUT FROM WHAT I HEARD, YOU NEGLECTED HER.
I WAS SO WRAPPED UP IN MY OWN LIFE,
AND I ALWAYS THOUGHT THERE WOULD BE MORE TIME.
[ Crying ] SHE WAS MY ONLY SISTER.
I NEEDED HER.
YOU DID NOT.
I LOVED HER SO MUCH.
I'M SORRY.
TOO LATE.
WHY DON'T YOU JUST GO AWAY?
MALAMA AUMAKUA.
WHERE DID YOU HEAR THAT?
TODAY...ON THE MOUNTAIN.
IT WAS LILY.
THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE.
SHE WAS THERE.
THAT WAS SOMETHING MY GRANDMOTHER USED TO SAY
OVER AND OVER.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
KEEP OUR FAMILY CLOSE.
I WAS THE OLDEST DAUGHTER.
IT WAS MY JOB TO KEEP THE FAMILY TOGETHER.
[ SIGHS ]
FORGIVE ME... TO LET YOU BELIEVE
THAT LILY DID NOT COME BACK BECAUSE OF YOU.
IT'S NOT TRUE.
AT FIRST, YES.
BUT LATER, SHE DID NOT COME BACK BECAUSE SHE LIKED THE MAINLAND.
I FELT BETRAYED.
ALL OF THE FAMILY RESPONSIBILITY WAS ON MY SHOULDERS.
WE HAD WORDS...
AND THINGS WERE NEVER RIGHT BETWEEN US AGAIN.
SHE LOVED YOU SO MUCH.
I KNOW.
THE ONE THING LILY REGRETTED WAS KEEPING YOU AND JULIA APART,
BUT SHE PROMISED JULIA NEVER TO TELL.
THAT IS WHY YOU ARE HERE.
SHE'S TRYING TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT.
HO'O PONOPONO.
IT'S UP TO YOU.
DO WE WANT TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT?
OH.
HEY.
YOU INTO DINOSAURS?
I USED TO WANT TO BE A PALEONTOLOGIST,
BUT I'M LEANING TOWARD ASTRONOMY NOW.

DOES THAT MEAN YOU WANT TO SEE SOME FOSSILS OR NOT?

Reverend Stewart: WE'RE HERE TODAY
TO HONOR THE LIFE OF LILY NOI --
A LIFE FILLED WITH HUMOR...
JOY...COMPASSION...LOVE...
AND A REVERENCE FOR FAMILY SO PROFOUND
SHE GAVE UP HER LIFE HERE ON KAUAI
TO FOLLOW HER HEART AND TO HONOR A PLEDGE
TO HER FRIEND WHO SHE LOVED SO DEARLY.
THE LESSON FOR US IS THAT LOVE IS NOT FINITE.
IT HAS NO CONDITIONS.
ITS ONLY REQUIREMENT
IS THAT WE PUT OTHERS BEFORE OURSELVES.
THAT'S HOW LILY LED HER LIFE.
A TRUE FRIEND...
SISTER...
AND MOTHER.
MY DEAR, SWEET LILY.
I COULD NEVER REPAY YOU FOR WHAT YOU DID FOR ME, EVER.
I MADE SOME FOOLISH CHOICES IN MY LIFE,
BUT I KNOW I DID THE RIGHT THING
BY CHOOSING YOU TO RAISE MY LITTLE GIRL.
YOU DID A GREAT JOB.
THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.
THANK YOU.
SHE WAS ONE OF A KIND.
LISTENING TO A CONFESSIONAL -- THAT'S NOT VERY POLITE.
[ SNIFFLES ]
I UNDERSTAND WHY YOU LET ME GO...
BUT IT STILL HURTS.
[ SIGHS ]
I WANT YOU TO KNOW I WENT BACK FOR YOU.
TWO YEARS LATER, I HIRED A LAWYER.
[ SLOW GUITAR MUSIC PLAYS ]
I'LL NEVER FORGET THAT FIRST GLIMPSE OF YOU.
YOU WERE IN A SANDBOX AT THE PARK.
YOU HAD ON THESE LITTLE YELLOW SHORTS
AND A MATCHING HAT.
[ SIGHS ]
AND YOU WERE LAUGHING,
AND YOU WERE HAVING THE BEST TIME.
AND THEN YOU RAN TO LILY, AND SHE SCOOPED YOU UP
AND SHE HUGGED YOU AND SHE KISSED YOU.
AND I REALIZED, RIGHT THEN AND THERE,
THAT...I COULDN'T TAKE YOU AWAY FROM YOUR MOTHER --
NOT AGAIN.
YES, I LEFT.
I LEFT THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE I WAS WEAK.
BUT I LEFT THE SECOND TIME BECAUSE I WAS STRONG.
THANK YOU...
FOR LILY.
[ SNIFFLES ]
SO, WHAT NOW?
I GO BACK WITH MY FAMILY...
TO MY LIFE.
CAN I -- CAN I CALL YOU?
I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

DON'T GO, EMMA.
I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE A DIFFERENT LIFE AWAY FROM HERE.
BUT -- BUT I HAVE FEELINGS FOR YOU
THAT I'VE NEVER HAD FOR ANYONE.
YOU HELPED ME TO SEE THINGS DIFFERENTLY.
THEN SEE ME...
'CAUSE YOU AND I BELONG TOGETHER.
I BELONG WITH MY FAMILY, KALA.
