Which means that...
...someone will have to come to Ko Pha-Ngan to buy more rice.
So don't all volunteer at once(!)
Richard.
Yeah?
Are you gonna come to Ko Pha-Ngan with me?
- I don't know. I mean... - I'll go with you.
Don't worry, Bugs. Richard's gonna come.
Am I?
- Who thinks Richard should come? - Absolutely.
All right. Then I'll go to Ko Pha-Ngan with you.
(murmurs and cheers of approval)
So, Richard...
...I want toothpaste and... and a toothbrush, yeah?
Right.
Uh... a new pair of swim trunks and a new hat.
Richard...
100 aspirin, 100 paracetamol, six packs of tampons.
...and four AA batteries... and 20 condoms. Make it 40 condoms.
And a bottle of vodka.
- (woman) Six bars of chocolate. - Uh... Fuck!
Four boxes of tampons. Assorted sizes.
Smell it. It's a part of me.
I am becoming a fish, Richard.
Ordinary soap for ordinary people is a waste of time.
I need something toxic, something industrial. OK?
OK.
A tin of beef curry. Yummy.
- Yummy. - As many AAA batteries as you can find.
And a copy of...
... The Daily Telegraph.
It's just for the cricket, ya know.
Oh.
- Please, fill this bag with a soft bog roll. - Soft bog roll?
Jasmine tea, Tiger balm, lip balm, tea tree oil, bath oil...
A big box of bleach.
...hair conditioner, skin conditioner...
- Anything based on sugar. - 12 packs of Rizla.
Cumin, saffron, cinnamon.
...antiperspirant and make-up remover.
(clears throat) Whaddaya want?
Oh-hoh! Ow! Oh... OK...
When you get to Ko Pha-Ngan, keep your hands to yourself...
...and your dick in your pants. - (groans)
Agh... (gasps)
Oh! Shit!
(softly) Oh, shit!
I'd been looking forward to air conditioning and cold beer...
... but when we got to Ko Pha-Ngan...
... I just wanted to leave again.
In one moment, I understood more clearly than ever why we were so special...
... why we kept our secret.
Because if we didn't...
... sooner or later, they'd turn it into this.
Cancers.
Parasites.
Eating up the whole fuckin' world.

A couple of months. Maybe... maybe a year, even.
Yeah, really.
What?
I-I like it out here, you know. Things are different.
I said, things are different!
Yeah.
No, I'll call again. I'll call again. I promise.
OK?
I miss you, too.
All right.
OK.
All right. Bye!
Bye...
(Sal) How does it feel to be back in the real world?
- It's not like I remembered it. - It gets worse every time.
It is Richard! Damn!
God! How are ya doin', man?
Damn!
Aw, Sammy, come on over, man!
- Ricardo! What's up, bro? - Girls, I want you to meet the man!
- (Sammy) The man! - Hilda und Eva, das ist Richard.
- (woman) Hello. - (Zeph) The man with the map.
- (woman) Der Mensch mit der Wanderkarte? - (Zeph) Ja!
(Sammy) They're gonna come with us, bro'.
Sorry it's been so long, but ya know...
Uh, listen, guys, I... I made a mistake.
What are you talking about, man?
No, listen to me. There's no beach.
- I can't believe we're seeing you, dude! - No beach?
Yeah. No, seriously, the map thing? It was fake.
- It was like you said: It was a story. - (Zeph) Right(!)
No! It's... it's a myth. Really. It doesn't exist.
- C'mon... - The map was a fake. Understand?
You wouldn't be holding out on us, would ya?
Let me guess. It's a fuckin' paradise!
Aw, man! What are you talkin' about? Yo, Zeph.
- I think he's just tryin' to... - I'm tellin' ya to forget it, all right, asshole?!
That's the last time I buy you a fuckin' beer!
(Sal) So you told them where you were going?
(Richard) Yeah.
(Sal) And they saw the map?
- Mm-hm. - Do they have a copy?
No.
OK.
Well, we can relax for a bit.
I doubt they have it in them to get there anyway. But, Richard...
...I don't think we should tell anybody.
OK? I think we should keep it between you and I.
Thanks.
Don't mention it.
Phew!
- (thumping dance music) - (yells)
Well, I'm going to go and play...
...a couple of games of pool with Sumet.
Sumet!
Snook?
So why don't you go...
...and warm the bed?
(speaks Thai)
(panting)
(Richard) Come on! Mm!
(Sal moans)
Sal?
- Sal? - Mm-hm?
I just have a question.
It was very nice.
No. That's not it.
It's about Bugs.
OK...
It's like this.
Bugs is my boyfriend.
My partner.
OK?
And you... are someone I just had sex with.
- All right? - That... that's fine.
- That's absolutely fine. - Good.
Now get some sleep. I may wish to have sex again before we eat breakfast.
It was a deal.
She wouldn't tell anyone about the map.
I had paid for her silence and bought my ticket back.
But I didn't even wanna think about the real price.
(Keaty) All right, Rich, we're ready!
OK.
- Got it, Keaty? - Yeah! No probs!
- (woman) Richard! - (Richard) Problem solved. Here's the bleach.
We got the make-up remover. I have two of 'em.
(woman) Oh...
- Extra! Extra! - Oh, Richard, man, I love you!
(woman) Man, this is gonna last me...
Oh, great! You're lovely.
- Did you get batteries? - Right here.
Yes!
- (man) # I can see my baby! Whoo-hoo! - Sten, that's all for you. Christo...
Hey, Ricardo!
- Grazie! - One tin of beef curry?
One... disposable camera.
It's not as good as the one you left behind, but... what the hell, right?
No, it doesn't matter. I like it.
What's wrong?
- How was it? - The rice run? Fine.
No problem.
I mean, being with Sal.
Fine. I mean... we got along OK.
Some people say she's attracted to you.
Shit! I... I really wouldn't have noticed that.
- Nothing happened? - No! Of course not!
You promise?
I was so happy to be back...
... that I couldn't bear to spoil the moment.
Yes.
Yes, I promise.
I missed you.
OK, come on, everybody! Come on, please!
Come on... please.
All together. Close together.
Please!
OK, close together.
OK. Stand back a little bit.
OK...
So, one... two... three!
(cheer)
(Richard) So I started just where I left off.
It was almost like my trip to Ko Pha-Ngan never happened.
Almost.

We can take you to a hospital, all right? We can do that.
But when you're there, you mustn't tell anybody where this happened.
We have to keep our secret.
- Läkaren måste komma hit! - What's he saying?
He says that we are to bring help here for him.
He won't go near the water.
I understand that, but we can't bring anybody here. We can't do that.
- Bring help! You've gotta bring help! - We can't, Christo!
You have to go. Or you stay here and take your chances.
- Anyone disagree? - Karl... var har hänt med Sten?
(Étienne) What is he saying?
He wants to know what happened to his friend.
(Keaty) We are gathered here today to say a last respect to Sten.
May God take your soul.
- And you will rest forever in peace, mate. - (man snivels)
We'll miss ya.

After the funeral, we all tried to get back to normal.
- (Christo cries out) - But it just didn't seem right.
"...no steady job."
- It became clear the problem was Christo. - (Christo cries out)
Shut up!
You see, in a shark attack, or any other major tragedy, I guess...
... the important thing is to get eaten and die...
... in which case there's a funeral and somebody makes a speech...
... and everybody says what a good guy you were.
Or get better...
... in which case everyone can forget about it.
- (man) I can't take this. - (woman) Christo, please!
- (Christo cries out) - "...every two or three autumns."
(woman) Great atmosphere(!)
- Get better or die. - (Christo moans)
It's the hanging around in between that really pisses people off.
Listen to me. You can't do this.
This is disgusting!
Take him back!
- OK, just here. - Fucking animals!
What are you doing this for? Huh?
Tell me!
How can you do this?
Richard!
Fucking bastards!
Bastards!
It would be a lot easier to condemn our behaviour if it hadn't been so effective.
But out of sight...
... really was out of mind.
Once he was gone...
... we felt a whole lot better.
On the beach, it's easy to turn your back...
... but not always so easy to forget.
Pay them in dollars, fuck their daughters, and turn it into Wonderland, Richard!
(whispers) Richard. Come with me.
(Sal) Is that, or is that not...
...a map she's holding?
And did you...
...or did you not...
...make that copy?
You know, the lying doesn't bother me.
But that map...
...is trouble!
The farmers, right? You remember, those men with guns?
They said to us, they told us...
..."No more people."
And now it looks like we're handing out fucking tour guides!
Sal. I mean...
We could explain, right? I mean, we could tell 'em it was Daffy.
We could explain?!
I want you up here every day until those people come.
- Here? - Yes, here.
I want you to get the map back.
OK? Whatever happens, you get the map back.
W-Wait! Sal!
- Sal, they could be there for weeks! - That's right.
- And you'll be here, waiting for them. - What am I supposed to do when they come?
Get the map!!
You drew it! You handed it out! Now you get it back and turn them away!
Sal! Sal!
Are you gonna tell 'em what else I did?
Now this was truly a pain in the ass.
I didn't want these people to come here any more than Sal did.
But what exactly did she expect me to do?
Chase them away? Threaten them? I mean, with what?
By the time these kids got here, I'd probably have starved to death.
(movement)
Sal?
- Sal, is that you? Get that light outta... - You're a pig!
Dammit! What the fuck was that for? There's nothing I can do!
- I have to stay up here! - Not that, OK?
- What is it, then? - You and Sal in Ko Pha-Ngan.
Oh, that.
Yeah, that! She has told everyone!
And me, I'm the last one to find out!
At least she believes in honesty. Not like you.
I mean, Françoise, I...
What... what can I say?
Nothing. There's nothing you can say.
Thank you(!)
Thank you for making my life just perfect(!)
Super(!)
God...
...dammit!
Shit!
You are such an idiot!
Even though I knew it would happen... I was crushed.
And I guess I deserved it.
I coulda given her all the excuses she wanted...
... but it wouldn't have made any difference.
Great(!) Great(!)
At first, I thought I was gonna die up here...
... that my entire world was gonna end.
But it didn't.
In fact... pretty soon, I found that there were plenty of other things to keep me occupied.
And before I knew it...
... I found that love, like grief...
... tends to fade away...
... and be replaced by something more exciting.
And life up on the hill turned out to be a big improvement.
I mean, up here, I could do whatever I wanted.
There was no fishing duty, no gardening shit, no hassle from Bugs or Étienne or Françoise.
I was playing my own game now.
And I had absolutely no reason to go back.
(# "On Your Own: Crouch End Broadway Mix" by Blur)
OK, so I was just foolin'around.
But the longer I stayed away from the community... the less I missed them.
And I found new players.
Even if they didn't know it yet.
This forest was my territory.
Retrieving the map... my mission.
And these...
... my defenders.
I was the only one with the overview...
... of how it all fitted together.
The island.
Me.
Them.
The invaders.
All connected.
All playing the same game.
(birds chatter)
And at the centre of it all...
... one man:
... Daffy.
(helicopter)
Inside!
Take a look, Richard!
Viruses, Richard!
Cancers!
The big, chunky Charlie's eating up the whole world! Out there!
Down on the beach! Down on the street! Pay them in dollars...
...and fuck their daughters!
It starts with four!
Four! But they multiply! They multiply!
It's time to stop them!
Year zero, kiddo!
Year zero!
Are you with me or against me?
I'm with ya all the way, Daffy!
Ye-ea-ah! Yeah! Yeah!
(door opens)
Richard?
Yeah...
Where you been, man?!
What are you doing, sitting in the dark?
Lmproving my night vision.
What for, mate?
You know who I think about a lot?
I have no idea.
Daffy.
Daffy?
Uh-huh.
I admire him.
You hardly knew him.
True...
But he had a certain style.
- Come here! - (grunts)
Fucking come here!
Yes! They're talking about you.
- (Bugs) You're moaning, that's all. - (Gregorio) I'm not moaning.
- I need to find out what his problem is. - (Bugs) Do you think I like the guy?
- (woman) What does he do all day? - (Gregorio) He does no work in garden.
But he steals our food. I'm sure of it.
You hear what they're saying?
Idle, sponging, useless prick!
(Keaty) Now, get your fucking act together.
You can't run around in the dark not talking to nobody.
What do you think you're playing at, man? What's happened to you?
You was all right. Just a couple of weeks ago, you was fine.
And now, what the fuck is going on?
Look at you!
And you're talking about Daffy?!
Daffy was a nutter, right? He went out there and he lost it. He's gone!
Richard!
Do you hear what I'm saying to you?
Don't lose it like him. Do ya understand?
Don't go there! Stay with us. Come back, Rich!
These are good people. They don't talk about people all the time.
They're talking about you because you're fucked up!
(echoing whispers)
... too much sensation.
... got outta control.
(Sal's voice echoes) And now it looks like we're handing out fucking tour guides!
Mushroom, Richard?
No, thank you, Daffy.
I don't need any help to see the writing on the wall.
- I'm very glad to hear that, Richard. - Gotta keep my head clear.
- Getting closer, any day now. - Year zero?
That's the spirit, kiddo.
You know somethin'?
You led the way, Daffy.
You showed me the truth.
But it doesn't matter what I think any more. It's up to you now.
I won't let you down.
Hey, Richard.
No offence but, erm...
...you're fucked in the head, man.
(helicopter)
It's been really nice knowing you, Daffy.
(echoing whispers)
(Richard) We're on patrol in the Delta. Search and destroy.
(echoing whispers)
We're not making any contact.
(echoing whispers continue)
- This lieutenant, he says to me... - (lieutenant) Get out there and draw their fire!
- (Richard) It's never gonna happen, sir. - (lieutenant) Are you refusing an order, son?
- (Richard) It looks that way, sir. - (lieutenant) "It looks that way, sir"?!
(echoing giggles)
(Richard) Then my M-16 just went off, man.
It just went off!
(echoes) It just went off.

- Hi. - Oh, shit!

And we... we came here...
...but we made a mistake. We made a mistake. And... and we're sorry. We'll go now.

- Come on... - (Zeph) We go now.
- (nervous gasp) - (Zeph) Um...
- We... we just wanna go. - (Sammy) Give 'em somethin'.

I want to look ahead.
Because I see...
...that beyond any problems that we might have had...
Right?
...beyond any problems that we might have...
...that we have so much here to inspire us.
And I'm notjust talking about the island.
I'm talking about you.
You are what makes this place work.
And it does.
(mutters of agreement)
(Richard) I tried to remember the person I used to be.
But I just couldn't do it.
- To the island! - (cheering and whooping)
To you!
And so long as I stayed here...
And to the future!
... l'd never find him again.

But we have to leave now! That's it! Just the three of us.
- Just like before. - Richard...
...I can't leave him.
- Then we'll take him with us. - But... look at him.
Look at him.
We can't move him.
It's gangrene.
It's spreading.
He's gonna die.

... nothing is allowed to interrupt the pursuit of pleasure.
Not even dying.

I'm a farmer, that's all.
Understand?
I work.
I send the money to my family.
If too many people come to this island...
...it's trouble for me!
I can't work...
...I can't send the money...
...and my family don't eat!
I said no more people.
But more people come.
And you...
You give them the map!
Now...
...you all go home.
Forget this island. Forget about Thailand!
- Understand? Huh? - (Bugs) Yeah.
- You understand?! - Yeah.
(Sal) No.
What?!
No.
We're not leaving.
This is our home, too.
This is our house!
We built it with our own hands! And we are not leaving!
Come on, Sal. Sal.
I... I think you're making a big mistake here.
Really.
- If he says that we should leave... - Richard, shut up!!
This is all your fault anyway.
Who copied the map, Richard?

You are the clever boy.
The one who sneak around!
- No, let him go! - Steal from us! Play with our guns!
And you bring people here!

You can't do it. You can't do it, Sal.

- If you pull that trigger, it's all fuckin' over! - Come on.
Cos this time... it's not like Christo rotting out in the woods where no one could see!
It's not like the four people that I saw killed today!
(panting) This time...
...everyone has to watch, Sal.
Everyone has to see what it takes to keep our little "paradise" a secret.
- C'mon, everyone! Watch! - Shut up!
Everyone watch Sal do this! Go on, Sal, do it.
Come on! Come on, do it! Yeah!
Let 'em see the blood this time, huh? Huh? Let's see if they can take it.

Game over.
But she was never gonna leave.
She believed in it all way too much to ever change.
So that's exactly where we left her.
# We sailed to the seven seas
# Searching for the missing key
# Unlocking you
# The world's harmony
# We climbed the highest mountain range
# Then we took the longest day...
And as for the rest of us...
... we carried away our sins and made our way back to wherever it was we called home...
... to pick up the pieces of whatever was waiting.
Of course, you can never forget what you've done.
But we adapt.
We carry on.
# The heat and rhythm in the rivers run
# And blinding faith in the desert sun
# Hear them today
# Play all as one
# Distant voices sang the far-off sky
# Led us to that elusive prize
- Can I get you anything? - No, thanks.
And me?
I still believe in paradise.
But now, at least I know it's not some place you can look for.
Because it's not where you go...
... it's how you feel for a moment in your life when you're a part of something.
And if you find that moment...
... it lasts for ever.
