Julie hears Shane’s voice call out and swims through the current to him. He is confused and shaking as Julie begins inflating his BCD. When he does not respond to Julie’s questions about his weights, she begins pulling the weights out of his wetsuit pockets. He resists at first, but then listens to reason. Julie then spots Mr. Jordan, and upon swimming to him, sees that his nose is bleeding, and he has a raspy cough. She sees he is unable to move and realizes he has the bends. Shane starts to panic, and Julie releases her fear and anger by punching him in the face. She orders Shane to cut the fish from Mr. Jordan’s stringer to avoid attracting sharks. As Julie cuts fabric to stop Mr. Jordan’s nosebleed, she worries about the threat of sharks, which can smell blood from miles away.
Julie holds on to Shane and his dad, knowing it is important they stay together in the current. She thinks back to a few days before, when she and her mom had a special movie night together, the first time they had bonded in a while. When they arrived at Gulf Shores, they were shocked to find how clean Gibson’s house looked.
