What do you think of a nice tuna check when we go in? Oh right, one out. All right. I think we were fishing every day, really.

Hmm, so far in this trip, we've already lost two paychecks. And to top it off, I still haven't been paid for the first three fish we caught this season. Won't we have to go see every day we run on land?

Why are you busting my balls? All I said was it would be nice to get a fish. Jack, we go in today, we'll stay in, and I'll write checks.

Okay, we'll stay in for the day and we'll go the next. Oh Jesus, Paul's acting like a jerk. Being a good captain is not just about putting fish in the boat; it's also about honoring your commitments to your crew, which includes paying them on time.

Well, miss a day's fishing, so we go right. Chatters, I didn't know it takes a whole day to write a check. Boy, I usually write a little quicker than that. I'll go in right now.

That's what we'll do. I ain't gonna deal with this bolt. I'm on one simple thing and you flip out every time I bring up money. You get all mad like I'm just talking to you. Is it wrong for me to worry about how I'm gonna feed my daughter, Paul? Is that wrong?

There's no way you can go home and tell your five-year-old daughter that daddy didn't make any money this week, so she'll have to go without dinner. Lance wants his money right now to feed his daughter, so right, man. I want my money.

I've never ever had anyone question me with money in my life. I'm starting to see a different side of Paul, and it's a side of Paul that I don't like. Get bad.
