EXT. MALIBU PIER - DAY<br />
Utah and Pappas walking back to the car.<br />
Two FBI agents in suits and ties walking with a day-glo<br />
orange surfboard. Surreal image. The ocean shimmers in<br />
B.G.<br />
PAPPAS<br />
Johnny, it's the only way.<br />
UTAH<br />
Why can't I just walk around with<br />
th<strong>is</strong> thing under my arm and act<br />
stoned? Ask a few questions.<br />
Angelo stops at the railing, points toward the ocean.<br />
PAPPAS<br />
Look. Look at them out there.<br />
LONG LENS on packs of surfers sitting outside. Bobbing<br />
slowly. Hunched like sea birds. Waiting for an unseen<br />
sign. D<strong>is</strong>appearing and reappearing beyond the break.<br />
PAPPAS<br />
They're like some kind of tribe.<br />
Got their own language. You can't<br />
just walk up to these guys. You've<br />
got to get out there. Learn some<br />
moves. Get into their head. Pick<br />
up the speech.<br />
UTAH<br />
Angelo, th<strong>is</strong> stuff <strong>is</strong> for little<br />
rubber people who don't shave yet.<br />
PAPPAS<br />
It's all balance, right? And<br />
coordination. How hard can it be?<br />
EXT. SURFRIDER BEACH - DAY<br />
CUT TO:<br />
WHAAAAAM! Johnny <strong>is</strong> CLOBBERED <strong>by</strong> a wave.<br />
He's flipped off h<strong>is</strong> board and hits the water face-first<br />
as the wave crashes over him. Other surfers steer clear.<br />
PAPPAS lounges in a beach chair in h<strong>is</strong> plutonium pink<br />
shorts, purple Vuarnet's and a T-shirt emblazoned with<br />
"Surf Th<strong>is</strong>" across the chest. A picnic basket sits close<br />
at hand. He winces at Utah's wipeout. Shouts from h<strong>is</strong><br />
beach chair.<br />
PAPPAS<br />
I think you gotta hit them straight<br />
on!<br />
UTAH<br />
(out of breath)<br />
Got it...
