We'll Be Invincible

Gaius, David and Katherine return to the Ibis Hotel.

At least we have beds, says Katherine.

Two beds and a couch, says David.

I'll take the couch, says Katherine. Did you buy those extra pyjamas?

Yes, says David. 

He hands out three sets of pyjamas.

Let's leave them to their last minute reflections.

.......

Arthur has gone to a nightclub. The Sapphire. 

Lurid purple lighting. Hip hop sound.

Due to his charmed life, he finds himself in a VIP booth, surrounded by multiple friends.

Marty and Helen and Lara and Fingal and Gordo and some guy who calls himself Yaah.

They are drinking green shots which Arthur has recommended.

These are good, says Lara. What are they?

Don't ask me, says Yaah. 

Arthur has had quite a few, and feels no need to answer.

Does anyone know how to row? asks Arthur.

He wants to know how to row, says Helen. 

Row? says Marty. As in, rowing machine rowing? Gym-type rowing?

No, says Arthur. Dinghy to wet boulders rowing.

Action man! says Yaah. 

Wait, says Marty. YouTube'll have something.

He fiddles with his smart phone.

Look at this, says Marty.

No boulders, says Arthur.

No boulders. But it's how to row a dinghy, says Marty. Watch it.

Arthur watches a woman in shorts row a dinghy away from a low wooden jetty, then turn around and return to the jetty. She ties her dinghy to the jetty with a cable and clip.

Told you it'd be useful, says Marty. You going somewhere?

Te Haturu-o-Toi, says Arthur.

Nice one! says Yaah.

Cool, says Marty. Don't worry about the boulders. I reckon, you just graze up to the first one. Then you jump out and drag the dinghy across to the land. Yeah but first, take your shoes off.

Got that, says Arthur.  

We'll be invincible, says Yaah.
