Deep Water

The three of us?

Let's give it up for Rich.

That one never gets old. He's talking to me not you.

Beautiful voice, Captain.

So good.

You are terrible.

You know what I'm terrible at?

Marriage.

I'm pretty good at first dates.

Hey, honey.

Oh, thank God. I thought we missed you.

I got your message.

Yeah, they changed the roster.

When are you coming back?

Babe, I'll send you a new schedule when I get it.

Ben, I know you're hurting.

We both are.

But you can't keep running away from that.

Hold on, babe.

Hey, Lisa, you found me something.

There's a LA-Shanghai route,

but I don't know, it's leaving soon.

All right, I'll take it.

You won't have time to go home.

Doesn't matter. I'll take it.

Hey, I got Nadine on the other line.

I'll call you back, all right?

Honey?

- Mom, where are you? - Our son is sick, Ben.

He needs you here.

- Oh, I gotta go. - Mom!

- Nadine... - Sean's calling.

Ow. Sir? You can't smoke here.

Cinemas, planes, bars.

Now I can't even smoke outside

without being harassed by the fun police.

Come on. Sir.

The designated smoking areas are located right over there.

Fuck!

Hey, Rich.

It looks like I'm your right seat to Shanghai.

Been a while.

I heard you're hanging it up.

Thank you. Here you go.

Penny... Hey.

...you missed karaoke night.

I hear you sang that same song again.

Damn. Did it work?

It always works.

Thank you.

Sorry, sir,

please step this way.

Hell.

I've got a random. Meet you guys at the gate.

Go ahead. Go ahead.

How you doing, Penny?

Good. How are you?

You trust me to captain a plane.

You worried about my toothpaste.

Any batteries or power banks?

Sir?

Uh, no.

Sure I can't get upgraded? I'm a gold member, you know.

I don't want to.

You know how I get with flying.

Okay, look, do we have to do this here?

I don't want to. Right here? Tell you what.

You don't get it.

The plane is bigger to Shanghai...

No, they're not.

...than the ones you've previously been on. Okay?

That's something, right? You folks okay?

Yeah, it's fine. My daughter doesn't like flying.

You know what's more dangerous than flying on an airplane?

Hippos.

No way. You made that up.

Google it.

You're gonna be fine.

Unless someone smuggles a hippo onboard.

Are you, like, a captain?

No, I'm a first officer.

It's my job to make sure the captain flies straight.

Aren't you too old not to be a captain?

Cora!

Tough, huh? Yeah.

Uh, well, Cora...

sometimes in life...

you gotta take a few detours to get where you're going.

You ever had to take a detour?

No, I'm extremely punctual.

Good girl.

She's tough.

- I know, thank you. - Cora.

Cora, Cora, Cora, look. Look what Mama got me.

Hey, guys. Look, look.

Could that thing be any louder?

I know. Cool, right?

And I got a new battery for this.

Okay, there we go.

Just put a pet chip in his neck.

- Uh... - Cora, do you mind?

I was doing something. I'll give it back.

Just hang on.

The password's his birthday.

Listen, Cora, honey, we're gonna need you

to look out for your brother on this trip, okay?

Step-brother.

That's it. That's the last of this.

Load it up.

Thank you.

Northeastern Airlines

Flight N-140 to Shanghai

- will now begin boarding. - Hey, hey!

Don't you dare puke on me, bro.

I'll drop your drunk ass right here.

I'm not playing, Hutch.

We're about to board. Sam, where are you?

Oh gosh, Esports.

Playing video games isn't a real sport.

It's a bunch of losers kicking it in Mommy's basement

with bags of Doritos and...

Oh, I'm sorry. Excuse me.

Ooh. What's up, Esports?

Let go. Get your hands off her!

Whoa. Okay. Sorry. He's just a little drunk.

Ooh! She's feisty. I like it.

Don't touch her.

What are you gonna do about it,

Captain Keyboard?

Hutch, get your disrespectful dumbass in line.

Is this how we talk to a lady?

Coach, I got this-- Shut up, Jesse.

Now, this is not how

we represent ourselves on my team.

My apologies, Miss.

Are you okay? I should have punched him.

You should stop being so reckless.

You punch him and then what?

Excuse you.

I should have been upgraded.

Re-circ fan is written up.

We can't legally depart until they fix it.

I just reset it.

Doesn't mean it won't crap out again later.

Hi. Welcome.

Just to the right.

You made us wait long enough.

What's up, bro?

Yeah, okay. There we go.

Yeah. Here you can...

Hey, I'm fine.

Let's sit down.

Come on. Let's sit down.

You want to strap in?

Good afternoon, passengers.

My name is Penny,

and on behalf of Northeastern Airlines,

I'd like to welcome you aboard...

Coming through. Excuse us. And don't let us interrupt.

Sorry. We were never here.

Sir, would you please put your seat back up?

Why sure. I would like to welcome you

aboard Flight N-140... What's your social media?

...departing from LAX and arriving at Shanghai.

- Thank you. - We'll be beginning

our departure procedures shortly.

So, at this time, please take your seats,

and make sure your seat belts are securely fastened.

Northeastern 140,

you will depart today from runway 24-L.

Before Takeoff Checklist.

Flaps.

Where do you think they're set?

I just need a response.

You do know, Ben,

that the FAA has us confirm flaps over and over

only because those idiots flying Delta 1141

were so busy yakking about

which flight attendant they wanted to bang,

they forgot to check them.

Captain, I just need a response.

Flaps are five, Ben.

Same place as the last three times we checked them.

Northeastern 140,

you are cleared for takeoff, 24-L.

Clear for takeoff 24 left, Northeastern 140.

See you guys. Captain.

It looked like you wanted to take a swing at me

over that flap check.

That wouldn't help my career any.

Isn't that how you got bounced out of the Air Force?

Well, that senior officer had it coming.

You, you're just, you're annoying.

Blew your pension and your benefits.

That's tough with a wife and young kids.

Had to catch on with some shitbag commuter airline

and now you're in that seat when,

of course, you should be in mine,

and thinking you can't afford to break any more rules.

Well, Ben,
