{\an2}-Wet. -You feel anything else? {\an2}You have to let it talk to you again. {\an2}Before you throw the stone. {\an2}Then you have to learn how to wait. {\an2}How to listen. {\an2}You keep on bringing me here, how come? {\an2}It's where you're from. {\an2}We used to hunt from those canoes back there. {\an2}We knew how then, cause we knew who we were. {\an2}Chief always has to remember who we are. {\an2}Is the water talking to you yet? {\an2}[soft splashes] {\an2}[Ambrose] That's it Mike. {\an2}[seagull cooing] {\an2}[Mike] Hey, come on. {\an2}Wow. {\an2}It's like they've been here forever. {\an2}Come on, let's clean them up. {\an2}Take 'em out. {\an2}See if they float. {\an2}-Here. -Why? {\an2}Well to make up to the elders for what you've done. {\an2}What, because you say, means I got to do it? {\an2}[Mike] Hey, hey! {\an2}I could help you now, or you could do it yourself. {\an2}You got a choice. {\an2}[Mike] Grab the tarp. {\an2}[Mike] You know I knew your mom. {\an2}Maggie. {\an2}She was a good person. {\an2}She had a good heart. {\an2}You lost your mom and I lost my dad, huh. {\an2}[softly grunts] {\an2}When we were out on the boat yesterday. {\an2}[Mike] Yeah? {\an2}I saw a whale. {\an2}Oh really? You know they come out here sometimes. {\an2}[Adam] Well... {\an2}Ambrose told me that when a Chief dies, {\an2}his spirit can come when a as a whale. {\an2}It's what he told me. {\an2}Do you think it's true? {\an2}He's gone, Adam. {\an2}Fathers dead. {\an2}Let's grab that. {\an2}One, just pull it up. {\an2}[orca squeaking] {\an2}[door opens] {\an2}[Ambrose] I think home's what you need right now. {\an2}[Mike] Mm. {\an2}I think you and me, see things differently. {\an2}You can't run away from yourself. {\an2}So you even know what it's like to be me, huh? {\an2}I mean, do you even have a clue? {\an2}People look at you, {\an2}the man, the guy who doesn't make any mistakes. {\an2}Me, I'm just a little idiot kid who is stuck in the corner. {\an2}Can't even tie his own shoelaces. {\an2}-You have a choice to make. -[Mike] Yeah well, I'm making it now. {\an2}I'm getting the hell out of here. {\an2}[whispers] I'm sorry dad. {\an2}I'm so sorry. {\an2}[sobs] {\an2}He needs you too, kid. {\an2}[orca squeaks] {\an2}that's your spirit. {\an2}[orca squeaks] {\an2}[Jane over radio] This is <i>Jane Kimball reporting</i> <i>from Gold River.</i> {\an2}A small Vancouver Island town <i>with an unusual visitor.</i> {\an2}A stray orca whale. {\an2}Ok, let's get set up, over here. {\an2}Some of their farm salmon broke out of their nets last year. {\an2}Mixed with that wild fish. {\an2}-And died. -What did the company do? {\an2}[chuckles] Apologized. {\an2}Was my father talking to these guys? {\an2}Yeah they started talking then it all fell apart. {\an2}Well we gotta put a stop to this. {\an2}If the fisheries dealt with my father, they're gonna have to deal with me. {\an2}This is the one thing I want to work out. {\an2}-[Bill] Good. -Then it's all yours. {\an2}What do you mean? {\an2}[Mike] I'm going back to Bella Coola. {\an2}[coughs] Does the uh, rest of council know about this? {\an2}You know, you can tell them. {\an2}[sighs] {\an2}[Jane] biologists say it's not rare to find a visiting orca in the inland up here. {\an2}There are significant resident whale pods that migrate up and down this coast. {\an2}But this whale doesn't seem to be passing through. {\an2}Locals report him as, uncharacteristically friendly. {\an2}And eager to make contact with boats and humans. {\an2}So the sleepy community of Gold River may yet find itself playing host, {\an2}to this spunky lost killer whale, for a while. {\an2}-And as word gets out, maybe to the world. -[indistinctive chatter] {\an2}Jane Kimball, channel 6 news. {\an2}[Brenda] Don't be such a chicken. Just go talk to him. {\an2}[Eli] He's looking at me. {\an2}-[indistinctive chatter] -Hey. {\an2}So... Hi, how's it going? {\an2}-Good. -Good. {\an2}Uh, you know Adam... {\an2}He kinda needs some help down at the old village. {\an2}With what? {\an2}[Mike] You know with those old canoes. {\an2}We plan on taking the out, but they need to cleaned up. {\an2}What if we're busy? {\an2}Well then get un-busy. {\an2}Cause you know that crap old you guys stealing that boat the other day... {\an2}I think you guys need to make it up to the elders as much as Adam does. {\an2}Alright, see you in half an hour. {\an2}Bring some friends. {\an2}Hey, look who's here. {\an2}[Lucy] Hey a sight for sore eyes, how you doing? {\an2}-Good. -[Lucy] Good. {\an2}Really sorry to hear about your dad, Mike. {\an2}[sighs] Thanks. How have you been? {\an2}[Lucy] Hey, a whale in the bay keeps the tax man away, right? {\an2}-[Lucy] Can I get you a coffee? -Yeah, but can I get it to go? {\an2}[Lucy] Sure. {\an2}-You remember Jill. -Hi. {\an2}Um, I-I don't think we've met before? {\an2}Actually we have. {\an2}I was up here doing my field project on herring. {\an2}It's like seven years ago. {\an2}[chuckles] I don't remember much from seven years ago, {\an2}if you were here, you'd know that. {\an2}Uh, it's good to see you again, Mike. {\an2}So you're with Fishers? {\an2}Yeah, a job opened up two years ago and, {\an2}I really wanted to come back. {\an2}-My condolences, by the way. -[Mike] Thanks. {\an2}I really admired your father. {\an2}He was uh, very clear, {\an2}about where he stood, even if my bosses didn't always agree with him. {\an2}Yeah well listen, uh, as far as that's concerned, {\an2}I'd love to book some time with you, so we could sit down, {\an2}go over a few things about the salmon farm. {\an2}-Whenever you want. -Here you go. {\an2}[Mike] Thanks. {\an2}Oh, it's on the house, welcome home. {\an2}-I'll see you around, Mike. -Yeah. {\an2}Oh. {\an2}[Mike] Hey Adam, finish off the backseat, Brenda can take care of that. {\an2}[Adam] Yeah but I'm already here. {\an2}-No go! -[Eli] These boats are ancient. {\an2}-Hey Bill. -What are you doing? {\an2}Just trying to get the people back to the water. {\an2}Figured we'd try them out. {\an2}They're traditional canoes, you know this stuff, I wanna make sure we do it right. {\an2}-Hey! -Hey nothing. {\an2}Show some respect, don't be smoking around these boats. {\an2}-[Mike] Bill. -[Bill] Just a little punk. {\an2}I don't have to do this, ok. {\an2}[Mike] Eli it's ok I'll take care of this. You know, Bill. {\an2}We have to give these kids a break. {\an2}[Bill] These kids are nothing but trouble. {\an2}They're young and bored, we just gotta keep them focused. {\an2}Must be nice to come home and be a hero for a week, huh? {\an2}Look are you gonna help us out, or not? {\an2}[Bill singing in local language] {\an2}Thanks Bill. {\an2}Ok guys let's get something straight up front. {\an2}I know none of you guys have been in this type of canoe. {\an2}Our ancestors used them back in the day, for hunting. {\an2}Btu we have to be safe, ok? {\an2}So do exactly what Bill tells you. {\an2}Alright? {\an2}Cool.

Tonight. {\an2}I told them we love orcas, any and all. {\an2}Well between them and the tourist, we get crazy around here, really fast. {\an2}[Lucy] Hey you know, maybe I should get some merchandising. {\an2}Like those stuffed killer whales or, you know, key chains. {\an2}-Ooh hats are good. -[Jill] Maybe he'll just leave. {\an2}[Lucy chuckles] Are you kidding, maybe he'll bring friends. {\an2}And t-shirts. {\an2}'See Luna, from Lucy's.' {\an2}What's a Luna? Thanks. {\an2}Jane was saying that they were having some kind of a naming contest, {\an2}at the Seattle newspaper yesterday. {\an2}You don't like it? {\an2}Wow, Seattle? {\an2}There was presumption earlier this year, that the missing orca was dead. {\an2}But his sudden appearance here on Northern Vancouver Island, {\an2}is a cause of celebration in the scientific community. {\an2}-A-ha. -[Jane] Now they want to figure out... {\an2}Plus the fact that it's all over the internet. {\an2}Yeah, and it's on TV. {\an2}Right now, I'm watching it. {\an2}So I've got all these tourists hanging around and... {\an2}Yeah well, he broke another sonar yesterday, so the fishermen are going nuts. {\an2}Now the fish farm says he ripped one of the nets open, {\an2}which means we're dealing with escaped Salmon, which is an entirely dif-- {\an2}it's not my point Bryce, I could use some help. {\an2}Uh, excuse me? {\an2}Hang on a second. Can I help you? {\an2}Uh yeah, Michael Solomon, OAG. {\an2}Orca advocacy group. {\an2}We were just on the water trying to monitor the whale. {\an2}And we're sure he's the missing juvenile from our pod. {\an2}That's what we figure. {\an2}Well-yeah but he's being buzzed by power boats out there. {\an2}We assume the fisheries will step in and protect him. {\an2}Mr. Solomon, I'm doing my level best on my own-- {\an2}Six boats in the last half hour. {\an2}Bryce, I'll uh, call you back. {\an2}[sighs] Ok. {\an2}I'm gonna need you to fill out a report for me. {\an2}-Thank you. -Can you show me on the map where this was? {\an2}[woman] Hello Luna, hello! {\an2}Luna! Hello Lu! Hi Luna! Oh! {\an2}[Jill] All boats, all boats there is a marine mammal warning in effect. {\an2}All boats must stay away from the whale. {\an2}-I repeat, you're breaking the law. -[lady shouting] {\an2}[Jill] I don't want to have to suspend your licenses, go please back away from the whale. {\an2}She loves them, come on. {\an2}You need to be 100 meters away from the whale! {\an2}What the heck is your problem, he loves us!

And your Luna, {\an2}is butting heads with all of them. {\an2}This is, a bad thing. {\an2}-Yeah. -So. {\an2}-Solution. -Please. {\an2}Seeing as this pod is in American waters right now, {\an2}we called our friends in Washington state. {\an2}Uh, to do what? {\an2}We're giving him back. {\an2}Which means we have to capture him. {\an2}[soft upbeat music] {\an2}[Ted] So he follows your boat? {\an2}[Jill] That's the problem, he'll follow any boat. {\an2}[Ted] Well that works, it makes it easier to lead him in. {\an2}That's Mooyah Bay. {\an2}-That's where he normally stays. -Right. {\an2}-Are those tourists? -No. {\an2}[orca squeaking] {\an2}[Mike] Oh, what's this now? {\an2}Canoes please move clear, you're in violation of fisheries regulations. {\an2}[Bill] These are our waters you can't stop us from being here. {\an2}[Jill] Hey Mike, he could flip that canoe in a heartbeat. {\an2}Look I'm sorry but you're required to keep a distance of 100 meters from marine mammals. {\an2}[Mike] Yeah well, I think we're good. {\an2}You can't keep us away from our Chief. {\an2}We respect your beliefs Bill, but, this is a, it's a delicate situation. {\an2}-Well what do you know about our beliefs? -Bill. {\an2}Alright, I think we're good here. {\an2}Come on Bill, let's take these guys home. {\an2}[Bill] Alright, let's put some muscle into it! {\an2}[all] Wooo! {\an2}[cheering] {\an2}[Ted] So they think the whale is their Chief? {\an2}Uh yeah it's... {\an2}Some of their people believe, I heard that, {\an2}well I guess you could say that the spirit of the late Chief is sort of joined with Luna. {\an2}Any other details you're not telling me? {\an2}This is turning into A PR nightmare, Jill. {\an2}I want this thing managed, ok? {\an2}Starting now. {\an2}You want me to hire a media consultant? {\an2}No I'd like you to take me back to shore. {\an2}We'll pulling up the capture date. {\an2}Is it a good time to talk? {\an2}Absolutely. {\an2}Sure. Grab a seat. {\an2}You guys and my father were trying to work out something, {\an2}out around the fish farms. {\an2}[Jill] Ah, yes, there were talks, but, things kind of, {\an2}fell apart at the end of last year. {\an2}Ted. {\an2}Chief Maquinna, Ted Jefferies, saw you on the water, yesterday. {\an2}-Yeah, how you doing? -Good, good. {\an2}To what do we owe the honor? {\an2}[Mike] Well I was just looking over my father's papers. {\an2}The back and forth with fisheries about not licensing any new fish farms. {\an2}Well I was hoping that maybe we could start talking again. {\an2}The existing farm is wrecking our fisheries. {\an2}And a new salmon farm would basically kill us. {\an2}[Ted] Maybe we need to restate the Mowachaht position to the minister. {\an2}You know, put it back on the front burner. {\an2}Well uh, that would help a lot. {\an2}But what we'd like is you to just shut down the, {\an2}existing fish farm. {\an2}[Ted] Well, I can't make any promises, but, {\an2}but fisheries considers your people to be priority clients, {\an2}now I know there's been some friction in the past, but... {\an2}We just gotta keep the communication thing going. {\an2}[Mike] Sure. {\an2}-And uh, about the whale? -Right. {\an2}[Mike] Well you saw, he's very significant to our people. {\an2}Yes I did. {\an2}And I know you have to enforce your regulations, {\an2}but I was hoping you could cut us some slack? {\an2}You know, nobody on our side is going to hurt the whale. {\an2}Our side just wants to make sure everyone's needs are taken care of. {\an2}Including the whales. {\an2}Ok, well if you just uh, {\an2}you know consult with the band before making any decisions. {\an2}Yeah, just so everyone is ok with what's going on. {\an2}That communication thing, huh. {\an2}-Thanks for your time. -Yeah. {\an2}Mike. {\an2}We just signed a contract to build a net pen for Luna, {\an2}and, how can you just lie to him like that? {\an2}I didn't lie. {\an2}Excuse me? {\an2}[Ted] I'm trying to buy us some time. {\an2}If we leak to the media that Luna's best chance for survival, is reunification, {\an2}then these guys with there reincarnation thing are just gonna look goofy. {\an2}Problem on solved. {\an2}Problem two, {\an2}I want to control the media, from now on, {\an2}we trickle feed the story just we're ready for full blown coverage. {\an2}The dock, down by the old mill, if we put the pen there, can we control access? {\an2}-I suppose-- -[Ted] Alright then let's get the dock cleared, {\an2}because the pen stuff will be here in about an hour. {\an2}What is this, a steering contest? {\an2}No, I'll make the call. {\an2}[Mike] Ok try her! {\an2}[motor putters] {\an2}ok stop! {\an2}Stop! {\an2}[engine stops] {\an2}maybe you got to take her up to the garage. {\an2}Oh [chuckles] give me a chance. {\an2}I don't want to be pouring any more money into this baby, than I have to. {\an2}But I don't need her stalling while I'm on the road tomorrow. {\an2}-Where are you going? -[softly grunts] Home. {\an2}Hey, some of us have to work for a living. {\an2}-Yeah but-- -But nothing. {\an2}If I don't get back, I lose a job. {\an2}But you've got a job. {\an2}[sighs] {\an2}Hey Adam. {\an2}Everything is going to be alright. {\an2}Ok? Bill is going to be a great Chief. {\an2}Adam. {\an2}Hey Adam, I need you to help me, here. {\an2}[soft upbeat music] {\an2}[Bill] There you are. {\an2}Here read this. {\an2}Fisheries already approved the whole fish farm thing. {\an2}Last month! {\an2}It's a done deal. {\an2}That guys must have seen me coming from a mile away. {\an2}You tried Mike. {\an2}[Bill] It looks like they're building something down at the old mill dock. {\an2}[Ted] If we can wrangle out here, do you really-- {\an2}What's going on! {\an2}Oh Chief Maquinna, I'd like you to meet Murry Novak from the aquarium. {\an2}It's a pen, they're gonna trap Sukit. {\an2}Best thing for him, Chief, back with his pod, {\an2}our biologist says he won't survive otherwise and she knows what she is talking about. {\an2}You told me, you'd consult. {\an2}I certainly did. {\an2}When can we all sit down? {\an2}Band council office, one o'clock. {\an2}Yeah we can do that, sure. {\an2}Call the police, I want this area properly secured. {\an2}Ok. {\an2}[Jill] Luna is what's known as a solitary social able. {\an2}Orcas who exhibit the highest degree of contact with humans, {\an2}are generally at the greatest risk of injury or death. {\an2}You're kidnapping our Chief and you want our support on that. {\an2}We're just trying to protect him. {\an2}I mean, you guys have been seeing what's been happening. {\an2}Yesterday I found a guy in the dock, he was pouring beer down his blow hole. {\an2}Last night he collided with a float plane. {\an2}His nose is all banged up. {\an2}Don't even get me started on the damage to the plane. {\an2}The owner is screaming about law suits-- {\an2}We just don't think he can survive without his pod. {\an2}Reunification is the only way to go and we were hoping, {\an2}we could get your support on this. {\an2}He's here with us, because he belongs here, end of story. {\an2}So what's your plan? {\an2}Or can you share that with us? {\an2}Well, we'd um... {\an2}Pen him and then transport him down to Washington state. {\an2}Over land? {\an2}We work with completely professional teams, {\an2}they're used to moving large marine mammals and they do so safely. {\an2}I'll let Murry explain the details. {\an2}We plan to led L98 into a net pen and then close it. {\an2}We'll take a few days to assess him, {\an2}then move him to Tedder Bay, near Victoria. {\an2}-Yeah well how are you going to do that? -By truck. {\an2}-Oh. -[Murry] It's a flatbed truck, outfitted with a special tank. {\an2}That'll take hours. {\an2}We estimate 12 hours. {\an2}Once we get him there we will keep him in another net pen. {\an2}When we know the pod is passing we'll look for signs of audible communication, {\an2}once that's established... {\an2}-We release him. -[Mike] What if it doesn't work? {\an2}-I'm sorry? -Well what if he doesn't want to join his pod? {\an2}What if he winds up swimming in Victoria harbor, Seattle. {\an2}If we're having problems with him and boats here, {\an2}it's gonna be ten times worse over there. {\an2}M-Murry has a very high expectation of success. {\an2}Or first dibs on the whale if the plan doesn't work out. {\an2}[Murry] The aquarium hasn't kept orca's for a number of years, {\an2}we have no interest in resuming that program. {\an2}[Bill] I'm sure there's someone out there who wants a beer drinking orca, {\an2}with a banged up nose. {\an2}[Mike] So you're just gonna do this no matter what we say, right? {\an2}Yes we are. {\an2}You're two for two buddy. {\an2}Just so we understand each other. {\an2}-Well that went well. -Who do you think you're working for? {\an2}-Excuse me? -How did he know we are trying to see the thing? {\an2}Uh let's see, he took a wild guess. {\an2}You're telling me you didn't tell him? {\an2}You didn't answer his quest-- {\an2}I'm asking if you supplied the question? {\an2}What I had to say about your marine land idea, I said to you. {\an2}And I meant it Ted, I'm filing a complaint. {\an2}It's the absolute wrong thing to do. {\an2}No, you giving information to the band, that's the wrong thing to do. {\an2}I told you, I didn't say anything. {\an2}[chuckles] I can't believe you actually trusted that guy. {\an2}Y-You know what those people understand? {\an2}Trouble. Angry Indians that's trouble. {\an2}This is our territory Mike and that is our Orca. {\an2}Right, so let's occupy the inland with two canoes and a rattle. {\an2}-Come on Bill. -I could call in reinforcements. {\an2}You know what we need to do, is just get him out of here. {\an2}What? He's our Chief. {\an2}I don't know, you're convinced he wants to stay here, right? {\an2}[Bill] What are you talking about? {\an2}Let's lead him out to the ocean and let him make up his own mind. {\an2}If he swims back to his pod then they have no reason to trap him and do the overland thing. {\an2}We probably save his life. {\an2}-That's crazy. -[Mike] Bill. {\an2}It's worth a try. {\an2}[sighs] {\an2}[seal grunting] {\an2}H-Hey! {\an2}What are you doing? {\an2}Oh just getting ready for tomorrow. {\an2}We're gonna lead the whale out into the ocean, let him find his way home. {\an2}What? He is home! {\an2}He's supposed to be here, with us! {\an2}Look Adam, we're just giving him a choice. {\an2}You know what, you just want him gone so you can leave too. {\an2}Look Adam the government wants to chuck him away, {\an2}and that just might kill him. {\an2}Alright, I'm just trying to make the best out of a bad situation, pal. {\an2}Hey is this how we're gonna end every conversation, cause it's getting a little boring. {\an2}-[rattling] -[singing in local language] {\an2}[continues] {\an2}Ok guys. {\an2}This may not be what everyone wanted. {\an2}We have to see what the whale wants. {\an2}If it's lost maybe we can help it's way back home. {\an2}It's really up to him, but... {\an2}Let's just give him that choice. {\an2}Let mother nature take its course. {\an2}Ok boys, let's go. {\an2}[indistinctive chatter] {\an2}[soft upbeat music] {\an2}Come on buddy. {\an2}Where are you? {\an2}Over there! {\an2}[Mike] Ok, pick it up! {\an2}[orca squeaks] {\an2}[singing in local language] {\an2}[deep voice] Woo, woo, woo. {\an2}[Ambrose] Come on Mike, strong voice. {\an2}You have to sing it to make it yours. {\an2}For when you're Chief. {\an2}I don't like it. {\an2}Why don't you like it? {\an2}It took me a while to learn it too. {\an2}How come you had to be Chief. {\an2}It's always been that way. {\an2}What if you wanted to be something else? {\an2}You want to be something else? {\an2}Maybe. {\an2}Learn the paddle song anyway. {\an2}In case you change your mind. {\an2}[humming] {\an2}Ok guys, he's with us. {\an2}Let's push on through. {\an2}Let's go. {\an2}[Jill] Murry says we'll make it. {\an2}[Ted] We better, I'm a hundred grand over department budget, on this thing already. {\an2}Hey Adam, what're you doing here? {\an2}They're taking the whale out to sea. {\an2}Who? {\an2}-Chief Maquinna. -When? {\an2}Right now. {\an2}You've done good kid, go buy your mom something nice. {\an2}[Ted] Let's go. {\an2}Don't you think we should just let them try? {\an2}I mean if Luna just leaves-- {\an2}Do you think Luna's just gonna leave like the inland has been blocked this whole time? {\an2}[Jill] I think he's disorientated, {\an2}I tried leading him out but he wouldn't leave. {\an2}But he seems to respond to the Band though, so if, {\an2}I mean if they can, just get him pass the sound. {\an2}So he can turn around and come back, then have two days behind instead of one, {\an2}forget about it. {\an2}I'll take care of this myself. {\an2}He's with us, let's push on through! {\an2}Ok buddy, here's your chance. {\an2}Let's take him out. {\an2}[orca squeaks] {\an2}-[Eli] It's fisheries! -[Mike] let's pick it up guys, go! {\an2}Go! {\an2}Watch out! {\an2}Stop! {\an2}Stop. {\an2}[orca squeaks] {\an2}Gotcha. {\an2}[man] Interring with marine mammals is a criminal offense. {\an2}You are in violation of the law and I am asking you to return to the dock immediately. {\an2}[Bill] These are Mowachaht waters, you've got no jurisdiction here! {\an2}Yeah! {\an2}I warned you. {\an2}So arrest them. {\an2}Can I try sir? I kind of know him. {\an2}[Bardecki] Come on Mike be resemble, do as he says. {\an2}Right now you are breaking the law, and there's a 100 thousand dollar fine, {\an2}if you turn the canoes around we can talk about this on shore. {\an2}Well we're not turning around! {\an2}Chief Maquinna, this is my last warning. {\an2}Turn the canoes around. {\an2}If you want us out of here you're gonna have to drag us out, you hear me! {\an2}Drag us out! {\an2}-[all] Yeah! -Eli! Sit down Eli. {\an2}-Whoa! -[loud splash] {\an2}Jane Kimball Mr. Jeffries, channel 6 news, {\an2}is fisheries going to press chargers against the Mowachaht? {\an2}Of course not, fisheries has the utter most respect for the Mowachaht and their beliefs. {\an2}But I hope Chief Maquinna saw how dangerous this could be for everyone. {\an2}I hope that fisheries and the band can cooperate from here on in, {\an2}so that we can do the best for Luna. {\an2}-Thank you. -Thank you. {\an2}Lance let's go. {\an2}[indistinctive chatter in the background] {\an2}Chief Maquinna! {\an2}Can you tell us about what happened out there? {\an2}Why don't you ask fisheries. {\an2}I think I made my point. {\an2}If I see you out there tomorrow, I will have you arrested, you hear me? {\an2}Hand shake and we're done, ok? {\an2}Is Tukito ok? {\an2}He didn't leave and we couldn't get him out. {\an2}And we lost a canoe. {\an2}Drink it. {\an2}[softly grunts] {\an2}He'd sure be proud of me, huh? {\an2}Yes he would. {\an2}I'm sorry ma. {\an2}-You asked me to do one thing-- -I asked you to try. {\an2}You tired. {\an2}[Mike] See that's just what I've been trying to tell you, I try. {\an2}I screw up. {\an2}That's just the point, I'm not the guy. {\an2}Is that good? Understand now? {\an2}-Mike. -Ma, I'm good. {\an2}Ok, I just gotta go for a walk. {\an2}[Jane on TV] Local residents and the scientific community, {\an2}fisheries plan's to capture Luna as a first step towards moving him. {\an2}But when Luna turned around and swam back into the bay today, {\an2}some people began to suggest the Mowachaht right, {\an2}this is where he wants to be. {\an2}So as fisheries moves forward with the reunification plan, {\an2}the Luna story gets complicated, {\an2}all over again. {\an2}Jane Kimball, channel 6 news, Gold River. {\an2}[Jill] Hey Mike. {\an2}I didn't know that Ted was going to do that. {\an2}You know I tried to lead Luna out, {\an2}first day I found him. {\an2}And he came back then too. {\an2}I guess I was hoping that you'd make it work. {\an2}That he'd follow you out, cause if he stays here, he'll die. {\an2}Oh he could die, on your truck. {\an2}He could die wherever you dump him. {\an2}No we're not dumping him. {\an2}[Mike] He keeps coming back. {\an2}I figure he knows something that I don't. {\an2}Maybe he does. {\an2}You were right about the captivity thing. {\an2}-What? -[Jill] What you said about someone wanting a cheap orca. {\an2}Ted's asked two aquariums for a bid, in case the reunification doesn't work. {\an2}But I still think that he should be with his family, Mike. {\an2}Maybe he already is. {\an2}Mike. {\an2}Adam's gone and stuff is missing from his room. {\an2}Hey where are you going? {\an2}I was gonna ask you the same thing. {\an2}[Adam] I'm uh, wherever. {\an2}-Someone you know? -Uh no, hey, can I get a ride? {\an2}Get over here. {\an2}[Mike] I got it. {\an2}-Is that your kid? -Yeah. {\an2}I'm not his kid, he's a liar! {\an2}Look, my mom makes a home for you and you run out on her! {\an2}So? What do you think you're doing? {\an2}Hey you think you're the only kids who's got a raw deal, huh? {\an2}Stuff happens, get over it. {\an2}Yeah right, that's deep. {\an2}It's the best I got. {\an2}Jeez, no wonder why you are scared to be Chief. {\an2}Guess you and I aren't so different after all. {\an2}[sighs] {\an2}maybe you and I should stop running huh? {\an2}Come on, get in. {\an2}You know my father showed me how to build these. {\an2}So that we allow a start. {\an2}He was always trying to show me something. {\an2}But I kind of wasn't paying attention. {\an2}He is the whale. {\an2}You know whales saved us? {\an2}Back in the day a whale would offer himself to the hunter. {\an2}The whole village would eat. {\an2}But it was the Chief, {\an2}who is the only one who would connect with the whale. {\an2}I didn't know the fisheries guy was gonna call the cops. {\an2}I told him what you were gonna do. {\an2}I just didn't want everybody to leave. {\an2}That's ok Adam. {\an2}Everybody's a little confused. {\an2}It's not a bad place, huh. {\an2}[Adam] Compared to what? {\an2}[Mike] I don't know, Bella Coola. {\an2}Bella Coola could be different. {\an2}[Mike chuckles] Sometimes lonely. {\an2}This place is lonely. {\an2}Uh... {\an2}Not the same way. {\an2}Are you still gonna go back? {\an2}You figure. {\an2}[orca blows] {\an2}[Adam] Whoa, look! {\an2}He bought the canoe back. {\an2}Won't see that in Bella Coola. {\an2}Now do you believe it's your dad? {\an2}[Mike] What if we tried protecting whale instead of capturing. {\an2}I guess you could call it a storage ship program. {\an2}We'll work out the details with you guys later, {\an2}but we'd be on the boats every day, {\an2}in teams, keeping him away from other boats, fishermen, {\an2}-cause if he's not banging into anything, he's not-- -Chief, Chief. {\an2}We can talk this round and round until the cows come home, {\an2}what's at stack here is the whales survival. {\an2}[Mike] At marine land? {\an2}We've made some inquiries. {\an2}We're treating it as a contentiously plan, {\an2}but I really appreciate you guys keeping me in the loop on all this. {\an2}That's, communication. {\an2}Now if you'll excuse me. {\an2}Are you looking for a fight, Mr. Jefferies? {\an2}[Mike] Bill. {\an2}[Bill] Listen it's time to make that call and get some reinforcements in here. {\an2}Do you think more angry guys at the dock is gonna change anything? {\an2}But he'll spin this around. {\an2}And make it look like he's saving the whale. {\an2}That's our fault if anything bad happens. {\an2}-Listen, will you just trust me here, please! -Bill! {\an2}How about you just trust me? {\an2}I think we could so something here. {\an2}I got another plan. {\an2}I need you to back me. {\an2}[Jane on TV] Today fisheries plans to capture Luna, {\an2}as a first step towards moving him to Puget Sound. {\an2}Where they hope he will reunite with his pod. {\an2}But tensions are running high as members of the local native band, head for the water. {\an2}They oppose the capture, arguing that Luna should decide for himself where he wants to live. {\an2}-[humming] -[soft drum beat] {\an2}[continues] {\an2}[Bill] The cops told the clinic to be ready for injuries. {\an2}Chief Maquinna I've been asked to inform you that if you enter the capture area, {\an2}you will be arrested. {\an2}-Got it? -I got it. {\an2}Is it supposed to get ugly? {\an2}I hope not Chief, I guess that's up to you. {\an2}[reporter] Sargent, what do you expect? {\an2}[Sargent] I'm sure the Chief understands. Thank you. {\an2}[reporters talking over each other] {\an2}-[humming] -[soft drum beat] {\an2}-Good morning. -[Jane] Hi. {\an2}I saw your report on TV last night, I thought it was a very interesting angle on the story. {\an2}Trying. {\an2}Looks a little more formal today. {\an2}-With the drums and all. -A little, how would you like to be closer to the action? {\an2}-Absolutely. -Alright. {\an2}[Mike] Anyone who wants to sit this one out, {\an2}no questions asked. {\an2}Ok then. {\an2}We all know why we are here, {\an2}we have to honor Sukit. {\an2}And remember my father's spirit, {\an2}he chose to come back to us. {\an2}He chose to stay. {\an2}Some people won't accept that choice, cause it interferes with business, {\an2}with politics. {\an2}And whatever happens, {\an2}whatever they try to do out there, {\an2}we have to honor my father's spirit. {\an2}With respect. {\an2}Without violence. {\an2}And remember Sukit came to connect us back to the water. {\an2}It's who we are. {\an2}And it's how we honor him. {\an2}[Jane] This is Jane Kimball with an update on the Luna capture story. {\an2}Fisheries plans to lead the lone orca into a net pen, {\an2}they've had specially built here at Gold River. {\an2}And then move him by truck to Puget Sound, near Victoria. {\an2}Your friends got a one track mind. {\an2}-Like he's the only one. -You just stick to the plan! {\an2}Is that him? {\an2}[loud blow] {\an2}Yeah. {\an2}Alright, harder! {\an2}There he is, dead ahead. {\an2}Hey wait. {\an2}Wait. {\an2}Jill's gonna lead him into the net pen, no-one makes a move on those cables until I say so. {\an2}Alright Murry we got him. {\an2}Be ready. {\an2}-Now! -Wooo!
