This is when her mother, Sina, walks up to her and sits down.) (Sina: Well, it's not like what you said in front of your dad standing on a boat.) I didn't say, "go beyond the reef" because I want to be on the ocean. (Sina: But you still do. He's hard on you because...) Because he doesn't get me. (Sina: Because he WAS you. Drawn to the ocean.) (A flashback of young Tui and his friend going out to sea at night appears as Sina speaks.) (Sina, continuing: Down by the shore. He took a canoe, Moana. He crossed the reef and found an unforgiving sea. Waves like mountains. His best friend begged to be on that boat. Your dad couldn't save him.) (In the flashback, a storm wrecks Tui's boat. He swims toward his friend, trying to rescue him, but it's too late. Scene changes to the present.) (Sina: He's hoping he can save you.

(Phil, continuing: ...you gotta get a girdle from some Amazons.) (exasperated) Phil, what's the point?! (As soon as he says this, Hercules tosses his club and it slams against the urn.
