SceNe A

Lani: Why the long face?

Cody: Huh? No, I was just remembering the time I met the Hang 5. I worshiped those guys. Seeing them surf made me who I am today. I worked hard my whole life so I could be just like them one day. Somehow it just...it just never happened for me. I mean, I love teaching the kids, but I didn’t think that’s all I’d be doing right now. I always thought I was meant to be somebody. Doing big things, inspiring people. I guess I was wrong.

Lani: Does this have something to do with all that stuff Tank said on the beach? Cody, you can’t let that guy mess with your head. He might have all those trophies, but...he’s still a loser.

Cody: Yeah, Tank is pretty annoying. But...it’s, it’s not just that.
