John B drives the boat around the ship and Rosa sees Pope and Cleo, so she turns around quickly, "There are Pope and Cleo!" Pope raises his hand "Hey! We're over here." Cleo also calls out to the three "We're over here!" Sarah looks confused at Cleo "What the hell?.."
"Give me your hand" Rosa reaches out to Cleo who immediately grabs her hand while John B grabs Pope's arm "Pope!" He pulls him onto the boat, "I got you." Sarah grabs Cleo's other hand while the two girls pull her onto the boat. Sarah looks at her confused "Cleo. Holy shit. I got you..." Rosa pulls her onto the boat like a fish with one last tug and Cleo grins at Sarah "Long time no see, girl." Sarah laughs and looks at her "What are you doing here?"
"Where's JJ and Kie" Rosa looks at Pope who looks at her, "I thought they were with you." Rosa shakes her head, "No." John B looks around "shit. We have to find them, all right"
"Last time I saw them was on the other side of the ship" Cleo points in the other direction and John B immediately drives off while Rosa fidgets nervously. Sarah hugs her, "It's all right. We'll find them."
"John B! Help!" Kie's voice is heard from far away and Sarah looks at her boyfriend, "That's Kie." Rosa breathes harder while Pope looks around, "Where are they?"
John B wheels around the boat and Cleo points to the two, "There they are. Hey!"
"JJ!" John B yells in panic as he sees JJ unconscious. Rosa follows his gaze, "No! No... no!" She yells "JJ!" She immediately walks forward to John B "Faster! "Oh my God!" Pope looks in shock at his friends in the water.
"JJ! No! No! No! No! No! JJ! JJ!" John B yells over and over, and Rosa has tears running down her cheeks. Cleo and Pope immediately grab JJ when they are close enough to him and pull him onto the boat. Rosa slides over to him and puts his head on her thigh, while Sarah and John B help Kie onto the boat.
"No. No. No" Rosa strokes his cheek "Baby please wake up!" She pats his cheek while John B continues to drive. Suddenly the boat's engine cuts out and the boat stops, "What's going on? What's happening?" Sarah looks at her boyfriend in panic, "John B." John B looks at the others "We're stalling out." Pope pulls his eyebrows together "You serious? We're sitting ducks. We gotta go! We gotta go."
"I'm trying. Forward or backward?" John B doesn't look at the others and Rosa lightly beats JJ's chest, "Wake up! Please baby! Please, I need you..." Sarah looks up at Rafe who is pointing a sniper at the seven while John B keeps trying to start the boat.
"If everyone just tries to relax." Pope shakes his head, "Come on. Come on. He's pointing at us. Hurry!" Sarah nods, "We gotta go." John B sighs "I'm trying, okay?"
Rosa shakes JJ back and forth, "Please wake up." The boat's engine starts and Pope nods "We gotta get moving. Yeah! Go! Go!"
"JJ! Please! Please!" screams Rosa while shaking her boyfriend over and over. Pope takes the wheel so John B slides over to Rosa and JJ, he nudges JJ "Wake up." Rosa cries and hits his chest with her fist to get the water out of his lungs, "Please get up!" John B looks at her in shock for a moment but also shakes JJ "You gotta wake up." Rosa hits his chest again "Get up!" JJ abruptly opens his eyes and starts coughing water out of his lungs.
