THEME SONG: I've got a special
power that I'm
not afraid to use.
Come on, this is my adventure.
This is my fantasy.
It's all about living in the
ocean, being wild and free.
'Cause I'm no ordinary girl.
I'm from the deep,
blue underworld.
Land or sea, I've got the
power if I just believe.
'Cause I'm no ordinary girl.
I'm from the deep,
blue underworld.
Land or sea, the world's
my oyster.
I'm a pearl, no ordinary girl.

-I can't believe you studied
late last night.
You were supposed to
be in bed early.
-Yeah, yeah.
-What's the timetable
for today?
-Sleep 'til 8:00.
Bacon and eggs for breakfast.
Leisurely swim.
-Up now.
Power shake for breakfast.
Light run, then, ugh, what
was that other thing?
Oh, yes, the Gold Coast
Free-diving title.
-It's not for hours.
-So you've got hours
to prepare.
Win this, maybe break a record,
and we're on our way.
This is our ticket to the
big competitions.
Drink up.
I'll see you out on
the road in 15.
-We should mark out, uh, some
spots to stand so we both can
show off too.
-Well, I might like the
showing off to you.
-I always look so much better
when I'm next to you.
Come on.
We've been playing
this for ages.
Let's enjoy it.
-Don't you mean you've
been planning this
for Sophie for ages?
-You're in a mood.
-I'm not in a mood.
-If you say so.
-Hey.
-Hey.
Anything we can do?
-Get me out of here.
-Really?
-No, no.
I should probably stay.
Being around Zane,
really hard.
-So don't.
Take off.
I can do to whatever needs
to be done around here.
-No, no, it's Will's big day.
And I want to be here
to support him.
-I could explain the
situation to him.
Not wanting to be around Zane, I
think he'll understand that.
-OK, thanks.
-Come on.
She's not worth it, Rikki.
-So this is your idea of getting
my mind off things?
-Have you thought about Zane
since we've been here?
-No, because I've been too busy
shoveling fish into buckets.
-Don't thank me.
Hey, you should stick
around for the day.
-Uh, I kind of came to
relax, not work.
-Well then, hang out
and talk to Ronnie.
-I don't really speak dolphin.
-Well, can you do me
a favor and get the
ba*ls out of the water?
I've got to go.
Thank you.
[music playing]
-Great.
I get the one dolphin who
thinks he's a comedian.
-So straight after the event
it's back here for the news
conference.
-And the official announcement
of Will's new national record.
-You really think
he can do it?
-Haven't worked this hard
for him not to.
I've even written his speech.
-Which makes plenty of mention
of his generous sponsor.
-Of course.
-Band's on their way.
We need to do a sound check.
-Yeah, fine.
-And you want us to play after
the presentation, right?
-Uh, well, Rikki was supposed
to be organizing all that.
Where is she?
-She's taking a break.
-A break?
Now?
-She needed to get
away for a while.
-From what.
-You.
-Didn't you say something
about sound check?
-How's it going?
-Just finishing the publicity
releases for the local papers.
-I though Rikki was
doing that.
Actually, I haven't
seen her around.
-She had something else on.
-Today?
There isn't a problem between
you two, is there?
-Nothing serious.
Plus, she had most of
her stuff done.
-Is there anything
I can help with?
-No, I've got it
under control.
-Because if there is anything
I can do, you know I will.
-Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll, um, keep that in mind.
-Hey.
[dolphin laughing]
-Sorry, Ronnie.
I'm not in the mood.
Tell Cleo I'll call her?
[dolphin squeaking]
-Oh, you think that's
funny, do you?
[dolphin squeaking]
-What happened to you?
-Nothing.
Oh, I ran here.
-You ran?
-Part of Sophie's competition
day routine--
make pain my friend, mental
toughness, all that.
-What about making
fun your friend?
Isn't that why you dive,
because you enjoy it?
-That's why I do it.
But today's not about me.
-It's about Sophie.
-She's done a huge load of
work, getting a sponsor,
organizing all the publicity.
-And I guess there's not much
publicity in doing something
just because you enjoy it.
-Today is about winning,
breaking the record.
I just want to get
it over with.
-But it won't really be
over with, will it?
If you become a champion,
the competitions
will just be starting.
-I owe it to her, and to Zane.
-This isn't about them.
It's about diving.
Most importantly,
it's about you.
You can' waste you life living
it for someone else.
What about what you want?
-Oh, so you think you're pretty
smart in there, do you?
Well, I know what your
weakness is.
All right, Ronnie, juicy fishie
for the ball, now.
Come on.
That's the way.
You know you want it.
[dolphin whistling]
-Oh!
Right.
Well, if that's the way it's
going to be, let's sort this
out, me and you, once
and for all.
-Ready to go.
-I guess.
-Well, how does it feel, knowing
you're about to be
champion?
-And record holder?
-OK.
-That's it?
What about some getting out
there and kicking butt?
-He's just getting
in the zone.
It's part of his pre-dive
routine.
-Well, I'd like to see a routine
that involves some
getting fired up.
-Last time you got me fired
up, I did almost drown.
-He's just nerves.
He knows how big today is.
-Yeah, I hope so.
-We'll catch up with you.
What was that about?
-Today's got nothing
to do with him.
-You mean apart from all the
support he's given you?
-All he wants is
the publicity.
-OK, he wants a return
on his money.
What's wrong with that?
-I didn't ask him
for his money.
-Well, where else do you think
it would have come from?
Your friends?
I see how they've all showed
up for you today.
Forget about Zane.
Forget about money.
Forget about everything
but winning.
Let's do it.
[dolphin squeaking]
[dolphin squeaking]
[dolphin squeaking]
SOPHIE [OFFSCREEN]: Everything's
ready my end.
-Well, we're waiting on
the divers, then.
-Then stop waiting.
There's your opposition.
-Uh, is it just me, or
do those guys look a
lot more than OK?
-They've all got their
own ways of
psyching themselves up.
-Yeah, well their way looks
a lot better than Will's.
-Don't worry.
Will knows what he's
got to do.
-Yeah, win.
Here we go.
-Hey.
Shouldn't you be on the boat?
-I don't know if I want to.
-Even though you'd be
letting Sophie down.
-I thought you said this isn't
about her or Zane.
-Yeah, I meant don't make them
the reason you dive, or
competitions, or records,
or anything else.
Do it because you love it,
because it's deep and blue and
serene, like another world.
Remember?
-You remember me saying that?
-There you are.
What's going on?
-I've been doing
some thinking.
-About what.
-About the dive today.
I'm ready.
Let's do it.
-Of course you are.
You've trained for this.
And you're going to win.
-Wish me luck.
-Good luck.
-I need it.
-Oh!
What are you doing in there?
-I had to, to get the--
warm up the dolphin.
-Right.
I can't believe you did that.
People go past all the time.
-He started it.
He was showing off,
and being a pain.
-Well, jobs done.
I guess you'll be, uh, keen
to get going now?
-Well, there's no rush.
I mean, if you've got work to
do, I'm happy to stick around.
-Hey, guys.
-Shouldn't you be on the
boat, supporting Will.
-Funnily enough, Sophie
didn't invite me.
-Oh.
How is he feeling?
-Good, I hope.
-So, wait, Will's out there
going for a record with only
Sophie and Zane to
support him?
-Yeah.
-I don't think that's
good enough.
-That's my boy.
-What, 60 meters?
That's what he's got to beat?
-He's got to perform.
-He can do it.
This is it.
All the early mornings, the
training sessions, it all
comes down to this.
Win, and we're on our way.
Lose, and we're right back
to nothing again.
Will, listen to me.
This is the most important
dive of your life.
-I know.
-Give it everything.
[dramatic music]
-How is he?
-Ready.
[music playing]
-Should he be down
there by now?
-[sighing]
Give him time.
-He'd have to be down there by
now if he's going to make it.
-Possibly.
-The other guy was down
and back by now.
He should be back up by now.
-There!
That's the 80-meter marker.
-80?
Wh--
[cheering]
-That's a new record!
-We did it.
Congratulations!
SOPHIE [OFFSCREEN]: You too!
That's a record.
-We did it.
We're the champions.
-Good for you.
-Can I get a shot?
What a day.
-You said it.
-Hey, where's Will?
The media can't wait to
get a hold of him.
-Can't see him.
-We need to get the champ
up on stage, then.
Have you seen Will?
-I don't think he's here.
-Where is he, then?
-He's probably recovering
from his dive.
-Oh, right.
Fair enough.
He was amazing.
-I'll go find him.
Will, are you there?
Come on.
Get dressed.
The TV cameras are waiting.
-I don't think so.
-Seriously, everyone
wants to see you.
-I'm not going.
You'll have to deal with
them yourself.
-They want to talk
to the champ.
-Well, he doesn't want
to speak to them.
-Look, I know you're tired.
But we've got to
deal with Zane.
-I'm not as interested
in him as you are.
-All right.
You don't care about Zane.
What about me?
You don't think you owe me
anything after all I've done?
-I did.
That's why I competed today.
But I'm not doing it anymore.
-You're not diving?
-I'm not competing.
-You know some other way of
becoming world champion?
-I don't want to be
world champion.
I never did.
You're the one who wants
it so badly.
-I want it for you.
-And the publicity and the
sponsorship money have got
nothing to do with it?
I dive because I love it.
Someone reminded me
of that today.
-You mean Bella?
-Competing is just not
me, not anymore.
-You're going to throw
away a career
because of what she said?
-She gets me, Soph.
How many friends have
you got like that?
[door closing]
-Guys, we'll have time for
questions in a minute when the
champ is here.
-Good day?
-Yeah.
Great.
This has been huge for us.
You should have been
there for the dive.
-I was.
You and Sophie seemed very
pleased with each other.
-We got a bit carried
away celebrating.
I mean, that's, that's all.
-This is me you're talking
to, remember?
I know what I saw.
-Look, it's, it's nothing
to get upset about.
-I'm not.
[sighing]
I've known that we were
over for a while.
-Over?
-I thought you'd moved on from
being immature and selfish.
But you haven't.
-Well, maybe the problem
is you've changed.
-Oh, I have.
I'm not going to put
up with it anymore.
ZANE [OFFSCREEN]: Rikki.
-Bye, Zane.
ZANE [OFFSCREEN]: Rikki.
[door slams]
THEME SONG: We've got to stick
together, 'cause the best
things come in three.
I want it to last forever, all
the magic and fun at sea.
So come on, this is
our adventure.
There's no telling
where we'll go.
But all I want is just to
live amongst the H2O!
'Cause I'm no ordinary girl.
I'm from a deep, blue
underworld.
Land and sea, I've got the
power if I just believe.
'Cause I'm no ordinary girl.
I'm from the deep,
blue underworld.
Land and sea, the world's
my oyster.
I'm a pearl, no ordinary girl.
Come along it just
gets better.
So much to do in just
so little time.
'Cause it all depends on whether
you want to leave the
land above behind.
'Cause I'm no ordinary girl.
I'm from the deep,
blue underworld.
Land or sea, the world's
my oyster.
I'm the pearl, no
ordinary girl.
