Quotes
-
Addy : I don't wanna upset them.
Jack : What about upsetting yourself? You don't wanna become a supporting player in your own life story, right? You wanna be the, you know, the leading lady.
Addy : Oh, gosh, you are... you are insufferably insightful.
Jack : Yeah, I know.
Addy : It doesn't make it any easier, though.
Jack : I know.
-
Addy : Now the company is really taking off and she wants me to be 50/50 partners with her.
Jack : That's amazing.
Addy : Yeah, mmhmm.
Jack : But that isn't your dream, is it?
Addy : I don't really know anymore. I'm really proud of what we've built, and, uh, I obviously love working with my family, right? But just the thought of going back to school really excites me. And it makes me really happy. But I don't.. I don't know if I could start all over.
Jack : I think you got to ask yourself, what's worse? Starting over or giving up?
-
Kara : So, are you single?
Addy : Kara!
Jack : I am.
Kate : May I ask why?
Jack : Why does this feel like a job interview?
Kate : Seriously, what's the problem?
Jack : Problem, I mean... all right, fine. To answer your question, I don't know. I tend to size people up very quickly and see who they are underneath the surface. I don't like to waste my time if I know something doesn't have a chance of working out.
Addy : I know exactly what you mean.
Kate : Oh, well, at least you two have one thing in common.
-
Jack : Don't leave.
Addy : I wish it were that simple.
Jack : Right, the whole, uh, business thing with your sister, the 50/50 partnership. Uh, it's a big deal. You come any closer to making a decision?
Addy : Uh, nope. No. But they are about to do a press release to tell the world that I am. Everyone is just so thrilled. I should be thrilled. I mean, turning down such an amazing opportunity, that would be just... that'd be crazy. Wouldn't it?
Jack : What are you more concerned with, what your family wants or what you want?
Addy : I don't wanna upset them.
Jack : What about upsetting yourself? You don't wanna become a supporting player in your own life story, right? You wanna be the, you know, the leading lady.
Addy : Oh, gosh, you are... you are insufferably insightful.
Jack : Yeah, I know.
Addy : It doesn't make it any easier, though.
Jack : I know.

Addy : I think I owe you an apology.
Jack : What for? I'm the one who hasn't found your ring yet.
Addy : No, for the grilling that Kate and Kara gave you.
Jack : Uh, it's only fair that I get to return the grilling.
Addy : Yeah, no, that's fair, that's fair. All right.
Jack : This should be fun. Why are you single?
Addy : Oh, wow, that really is the worst. Okay. Hey, what makes you so sure that I am?
Jack : [he shrugs] I don't know.
Addy : What's that supposed to mean?
Jack : Look, if you're not comfortable, you don't have to answer it.
Addy : No, no, it's fine. Uh, okay. Um, no, a couple of years ago I went through a really, what at the time felt like an earth-shattering breakup. Um, I thought I met the man I was gonna marry, and he did want to get married, just not to me.
Jack : Hey, definitely his loss.
Addy : Well, to make me feel better my grandma gave me her ring. She said it would bring me nothing but good luck. So after that I told myself that I would never let anyone be careless with my heart again. And, I don't know, ever since then, I just feel like I haven't met anybody who's made me feel the way that I wanna feel or at least the way that I think you should feel to take things to the next level.
Jack : I think we're all just hoping to find someone we're comfortable enough to be ourselves around.
Addy : You're pretty easy to talk to.
Jack : [he's surprised that she seems surprised] Yeah, I try to be a good listener.
-
Jack : All right. We got to find you a replacement ring until we find yours. Don't want you to wear out your finger.
Addy : I don't even realize I'm doing it.
Jack : Oh, yup. Okay. This is made of black coral which is the official state gemstone of Hawaii. It's not gonna hold the same sentimental value, but the Honu is known to bring good luck. Sea turtles were believed to have led the original Polynesians to this island, so maybe it'll help us find what we're looking for.
Addy : I love it. Thank you.
-
Jack : You should make a wish to find your ring.
Addy : Oh, isn't that what I hired you for?
Jack : I can use all the help I can get.
Kate : Oh, um, Addie doesn't believe in making wishes.
Jack : Why not?
Addy : Well, I just, you know, I think you're just setting yourself up for disappointment when they don't come true.
Jack : Okay. You're kind of missing the point.
Addy : Really? Now what would that be?
Jack : Positive energy, good vibes, karma, good old-fashioned hope, that's what a wish is all about. Without hope, you got no chance at all.
Addy : Okay, fine.
-
Jack : People come and go so much on this island. I think that's why I choose not to get close to anyone. It's just easier to be alone, you know? But I wasn't expecting this.
Addy : This is the last thing I was expecting to find on this island.
Jack : At least we're on the same page.
[they lean in and kiss]

Addy : So, how close are you to having enough money saved for your big trip around the world?
Jack : Close. And once I find this elusive ring of yours, the recovery fee should put me over the top.
Addy : Well, that makes me really happy. For you and my right ring finger, of course.
Jack : Of course. Uh, yeah, it's funny. You know, I've been saving up for this trip for so long, it just kind of seemed like it would never happen. And now that it's within reach, that it's a real possibility, my emotions are just kind of all over the place.
Addy : Well, why do you think you have so many emotions tied up in this trip?
Jack : After my mom died, uh, my dad and I planned on sailing around the world together. But, before we got around to it, he got sick. He made me promise that I would make the trip after he was gone. He refused to let me sell the Gem, even to help with the medical bills. I think he knew this old boat would keep him around, even after he was gone.
Addy : Well, thank you for sharing that with me. I know that's not easy.
-
Jack : So you got your ring back, you're gonna be studying what you love and you're planning a sailing trip around the world.
Addy : With an incredibly handsome man, I might add.
Jack : Debatable, but I'll take it.
[they laugh]
Jack : The point is, the wind seems to really be blowing in your direction.
Addy : And?
Jack : And, after all that, was your grandma right? Now do you believe in the magic of this ring?
Addy : [she kisses him] Does that answer your question?
Jack : Loud and clear.
-
Kate : Are you sure about this?
Addy : No, no, I am not actually, but I know that I need to do what I truly love. I got to get back in the water. So, I'm gonna stay on the island and figure some things out. Hey, I don't regret one minute of what we did together, okay? I am... I am so proud of everything that we built. And I am so, so excited to watch your dream grow. But you're right, Kate. I gotta go after mine.
