Ah! I get now why Sharon was so annoyed with Denise for triggering her PFD. Because she doesn’t want any harm to come to her baby!

(Is Denise just stubborn? Or was she still upset over losing her cosmetics case? Or maybe the fact that she didn’t want to lose her last cost of her favourite nail polish?)

HIGHLIGHT:

EXT. ROWBOAT - DAY

DENISE's personal flotation device inflates as she falls over to one side of the boat while HOLLY and SHARON fall over on the other.

HOLLY laughs and tries to sit up.

HOLLY notices something missing.

HOLLY What happened to our oars?

DENISE looks over to her side and seems one of the oars way out of reach. Her cosmetics case also floats nearby.

SHARON sees the second oar.

SHARON Oh my God.

A moment passes when they realise their predicament.

SHARON Help!

HOLLY looks around worriedly. No other vessels nearby.

ALL THREE Help!!!!! Help!

Their voices echo throughout the lake as their boat rocks and bobs on the water.

EXT. ROWBOAT - LATER

The three are now seated together a blanket on their laps. DENISE is in the middle with HOLLY on her right and SHARON on her left.

DENISE looks at her newly painted nails and sighs.

DENISE I hate cosmetics companies.

Her two friends have no idea what to say. Quite odd to bring up given their current predicament.

DENISE They get you addicted to ther perfect lipstick or nail polish and then six months later, they discontinue it...

HOLLY reaches over to take a look at DENISE's nails.

DENISE You have to buy your favourite colors like you're storing up for the apocalypse. That was my last bottle of this.

SHARON shakes her head.

SHARON I think that one of us should swim ashore and it should be the one who's already inflated.

DENISE Okay, no, that's good. Here!

She triggers SHARON's PFD. SHARON screams in response and glares at the perpetrator as it inflates.

HOLLY is just smiling an enjoying the scenery. Glancing at her two friends bicker but is surprisingly zen.

DENISE There, go swim ashore.

SHARON Was that absolutely necessary?

DENISE Yeah, now you can swim ashore.

SHARON Are you happy I inhaled all these toxins?

DENISE You jump in!

DENISE points towards the water.

HOLLY Stop fighting! You're acting like babies!

DENISE reaches and triggers HOLLY's PFD. HOLLY tries to stop her by it's too late. She now too is inflated.

DENISE Shut up!

SHARON looks over at HOLLY.

SHARON Nice.

EXT. ROWBOAT - DUSK

The boat continues rocking and bobbing and the three women sit silently. They now have their rain jackets and hoods on.

HOLLY I think we'll eventually drift towards the shore.

My verdict of the film: 6/10
