[[[Out on the reef, Richard is trying to catch fish with a spear. He sort of dances around a little bit, and manages to spear a fish. Emmeline looks at him like he’s silly, while she picks up many fish out of the water.]]]
RICHARD: Look! I’m the greatest fisherman who ever lived!
EMMELINE: I’m the greatest fisherman who ever lived. While you scare them off, I just catch as many as I want to.
RICHARD: That’s my fish dance! It doesn’t scare them off, it brings them up to the surface where I can spear them. Who cares what you say? It’s not how many you catch that counts, its how you do it.
