"Previously on Pitch..." " Am I seeing you tonight?" " Careful." "He has no idea." " Hey." " Hi, Dad." "Comin' to the house for dinner on Sunday?" " I've done all right for myself." " For a guy from Queens." "I needed something to believe in." "Something to let me know I was gonna get out of there, and sabermetrics... or... math... helped me do that." "I'm scouting locations for a sports bar." "The first of a nationwide franchise," ""Screwgies Bar and Grill."" "If you're talking partnerships, I'm listening." "Now is not the time to capitalize on your sister's fame." "Omar:" "Am I really the only one who's noticed?" "It's like we're playing with a supermodel." "Come on, man." "How much do you even know about Ginny?" "Did you know that she hums" "Katy Perry songs when she stretches?" " Omar:" "No." " I do, because" "I've spent about a hundred more hours talking to her than you." "I don't know what I'd do without you." "(Ginny humming)" "(humming continues)" "Oscar:" "Are you happy here?" "The reason I ask is I know you've had to play some first base lately." "We know you love to catch." "And the odds are stacked against us making the playoffs." "I'll let you know how happy I am by the end of the day." "Ginny:" "It's his job to lead." "Ginny, it's not always that easy." "If he wants a ring, that's what he's gonna have to do." "It's not like he's going anywhere." "Chicago." "Colin Cowherd:" "All right, I'll kick it off." "Mike Lawson." "Are his days numbered in San Diego?" "A supposed lifelong Padre, destined for the Hall of Fame, could soon be playing his last game at Petco." "Sources say Lawson has okayed a trade to the Cubs, although the Padres are tight-lipped." "Kristine Leahy:" "Well, the front office" " can't keep us in suspense much longer." " (phone buzzes)" " Hello." " Woman:" "Mike," " I have Ted Copeland for you." " Uh..." "Fine." "Yeah, put him through." "Cowherd:" "Listen, I'm excited for the September 1 deadline..." "Ted Copeland:" "Mike Lawson." " How the hell are you?" " Hey." "Uh, doing all right." "Mike, we don't have a deal yet, but Oscar gave me the go-ahead to reach out." "I don't want to keep you, buddy, I just have one question." "What's your ring size?" "Uh..." "Wow, I'm gonna have to get back to you on that." "We want you on the Cubs, Mike." "We want you to be our catcher, and in exchange, we want to get you that ring." "How big's your smile right now?" " Ear to ear." " Good." "'Cause my plan's to have you here at Wrigley in two days." "I'll be in touch." "All right, thanks, Ted." "Appreciate it." "Oh, God." "I hope you weren't doing anything gross in here." " I just had to take a call." " Mm." "I can't tell you how annoying it is to turn on the TV and hear all these talking heads go on and on about you." "Everywhere I go, it's Mike-O-Mania." "It's like no one else plays on this team." "(chuckles) Mike-O-Mania, huh?" "Nothing catchy goes with Lawson." "Go ahead, try." "Lawsanity?" "Lawsophrenia?" "See?" "Hey, so nobody here actually believes you waived your no-trade clause." "Did you?" "You my agent?" "We're only seven games out of the wild card." "You're not going anywhere." "Cowherd:" "The Padres are still in it." "Leahy:" "Mathematically speaking, the Padres are still in the wild card hunt, sure." "But if the reports are true, I can't fault Lawson for wanting to go to a real contender." "Cowherd:" "Well, tell that to the Padre fans." "Mike Lawson's an infidel." "Did Ernie Banks leave the Cubs?" "Did Cal Ripken leave the Orioles?" "No..." "Infidel?" "A little harsh, don't you think?" "Leahy:" "Mays finished as a Met and Hank Aaron finished as a Brewer." "Most players don't finish with one team." "Mike Lawson can go wherever he wants." "♪ Have no fear. ♪" "(computer beeping)" "All right, that's great, Ginny." "Hold on one second." "Have you guys thought about ditching the mo-cap trackers so you can just use the inertial suit so you don't have to haul around all this gear?" "Guess you have." "Noah:" "Comfortable?" "I know these ping-pong suits can be a little awkward the first time." " All good." " Cool." "I'm just excited to be a Super Mario version of myself." "Aw, I think we're more high-tech than Super Mario." " That's a bummer." "I like Mario." " Oh. (chuckles)" " How's it looking?" " Perfect." "I don't really know anything about baseball, but they said that you look really good." " Okay." " Mike Lawson?" "Oh, yeah, they, uh..." "They want to know if Mike Lawson is getting traded?" "No." "Take it to the bank." "Will, how's my form?" "Perfect." "Is he hitting on her?" "Definitely." "Don't worry." "G can handle herself." "And I think she digs him." "Okay. (chuckles)" "Hey, these downloadable add-ons" " are free, right?" " Yeah." "They should charge a dollar for hers." "I mean, even if she only gets a small percentage," " that's still a decent paycheck." " That's not how it works." "Using Ginny's likeness in a game goes through the Players Association." " Good idea, though, right?" " So, I think we're ready for the screwball." "Also, I'd love to take you to dinner." "Uh, how would your boss feel about you asking out a client?" "Tech:" "Hey, Noah, can you come look at this?" "Uh, hold that thought one sec." "Dude, that's Noah Casey." "He's basically the Mark Zuckerberg of mo-cap." " Really?" " I like to think" "Mark is the Noah Casey of social media platforms." "So why is the CEO of the company doing the tech's job?" "I don't know." "I like to get my hands dirty." "So, dinner?" "Here's the thing, Noah." "My life's... basically all baseball." "Even when I'm not pitching," "I'm wearing little ping-pong balls, pretending to pitch." "And, to be honest, it's a little rough going to restaurants these days without being hounded for autographs and selfies, so..." "So... what time do you want me to pick you up?" "I'm sorry, I can't." "Dang." "All right." " You hear anything?" " About what?" "Mike agreeing to a trade with the Cubs?" "He hasn't said anything to me." "Hey, come on, it's getting cold." "If he's leaving, the guys should hear it from him." "The guys?" "Looking out for the guys, are you?" "Yeah." "What?" "You turned him down?" " A billionaire." " I barely had time" " for this dinner." " Ginny, you need to get some." " What?" " Ginny:" "Oh..." "What?" "I'm just saying, it wouldn't hurt to have a little fun or at least relieve some stress." "Yeah, he's right." "You do need to relieve some stress." " With a billionaire." " Hey, it is not like my sister did not just sign a huge endorsement deal, okay?" "She doesn't need some guy's dowry." " Thank you, Will." " You're welcome." "You guys already have a menu for Screwgies?" "Wow, you aren't wasting any time." "Are you..." "Hey, you got to strike when the iron is hot." "Are you sure you really want to commit to something that's so much about me?" "Sis, that's who I am:" "Ginny Baker's brother." " And I'm cool with that." " Will, do you even have any food industry experience?" "Yes, I ran" " a coffee shop in North Carolina." " A coffee shop?" "And you're forgetting I was pursuing a business degree before I met someone with his own dream." " Now it's my turn." " So are we just gonna, like, put off our plan to have another kid?" "Well, we didn't plan the first two." "Come on, Blip, I want to do this, I want to invest." "Invest?" "Invest what?" "My money?" " Blip." " Damn." "No... that's-that's a figure of speech. "My" means "ours."" "Evy and I's." "Our money." "You're damn right." "I can't do this unless we're both in." " Okay." " Yes!" "Yay!" "(all cheering)" " Will, you always..." " Get off me." "Stop touching me." " So hard, though." "Stop." " Cheers." " Come on." " To Screwgies." "To Screwgies." "C.J. Nitkowski:" "Obviously, the big trade news in the air is circling around Mike Lawson and the San Diego Padres." "Right now they're overloaded behind the plate, with both Lawson and rookie sensation Livan Duarte." "Clearly Duarte has the youth, but Mike Lawson has the experience, and no..." "(phone dings)" "_" "Woman's voice:" "Super Noah needs your help." "Our hero's heart was stolen, and without it his powers are worthless." "Super Noah has his powers again." "Thank you, Super Ginny." "To continue to the next level, text 310-369-4950." "Radio Host:" "Ed Rossi from El Cajon, you're on The Mighty 1090." "How you doing?" "Rossi:" "Terrible." "This is a dark day in San Diego." "This new guy, Charlie Graham, he's a tech guy." "He doesn't even know baseball." "He doesn't care about Mike Lawson or the fans." "He just cares about the bottom line." "So, are the rumors true?" " Are you really leaving?" " Well..." "Well, I don't know." "You tell me." "You claim to know everything." "Whatever." "Just let Ginny know when you know." "Why?" "Why?" "I don't owe anyone an explanation or a good-bye or a go to hell." "I wouldn't be surprised if I'm standing here talking to you tomorrow." "See, I think that you gave the okay to be traded." "But you're holding your cards close, 'cause you don't want to walk it back if it doesn't happen." "Yeah, but if it does, then, you know, then maybe I'll say my good-byes." " To the groupies?" " To... definitely the groupies, yeah." " Don't hug me." " I wasn't gonna." "Tell Ginny." "Hey, Mike." "Nah, we got to think long game, Oscar." "I mean, we're gonna be stacking the cupboard with prospects and we have" "Livan Duarte, who some would argue is a better catcher than Mike, all right?" "Then, short game, we're expecting thousands of walk-up sales based on trade rumors." "Great. 40,000 people storming our castle with torches and pitchforks." "Yeah, well, in a year or two, they're gonna be thanking me." "Yes, the thing about baseball, it's a very sentimental game." "Fans get attached." "They have long memories." "Oscar, I don't make decisions to win friends." "I make decisions to win..." "Well, that's it." "Just..." "nothing more." "To win." " Hey, Mike." " Hey." " You've met Charlie, right?" " The new Frank Reid." " We've met." " Yeah." "I've been called worse." "As you know, we're into it with the Cubs, but there are still a few things that need to be ironed out." "This would be like the Yankees trading Jeter," " so it has to be perfect." " If I had Jeter's rings" "I wouldn't be going anywhere." "Can I make a final request?" "Shoot." "I know that there's, uh, some chatter out there." " Some?" " Yeah." "But until it's official," "I want to keep this quiet on our end." "Fair enough." " Okay." " A-And listen, Mike." "Enjoy today." "You deserve all the love you're gonna get out there." "And thank you." "I just want it to be over." "Oscar:" "Yeah." "So do I." "I didn't realize they were so far along." "Will and Ev are really motivated." "They want to strike while the iron's hot." "That's great." "They must've put up some real money." "Permits, insurance, deposits." "Does Will have that kind of capital?" "I wrote him a check." "For how much?" " That's none of your business." " Ginny." " What?" " You are gonna have an endless range of opportunities this off-season." "Attaching your name to a sports bar that will fail within a year?" "It's not worth your time and your energy." "Amelia, that's my brother." "I will always have his back, so you need to get on board with this." "(exhales)" "♪ ♪" "(laughs)" "Very funny." "Very funny." "Who was it?" "(scattered laughter)" "Really?" "So my cleats just..." " just nailed themselves to my cubby?" " Blip:" "Rookie pranks don't start until September 1." "Which is tomorrow, when all the other rookies are called up." "Unless someone won't be here, so they pranked me a day early." "Oscar:" "Livan!" "Hey." "How are we doing?" "You, uh, acclimating okay?" "If acclimating means hitting .290 with 15 RBis in August," "I'd say I'm acclimating very well." " (quietly):" "Hey." " Hi." " What are you doing here?" " I just had lunch with my dad." "Oh!" "I wonder if the name Mike Lawson came up." "(laughs) Maybe just once or twice, but let's just say that my dad is not your biggest fan at the moment." "And you're getting killed online, too." " You know that, right?" " That's okay." "Comes with the job." "Killed how badly?" "Well, the memes are pretty funny." "Oh, did you see Charlie's, uh," ""I have confidence in my front office" " to do the right thing" tweet?" " Hmm." "So, um, I have a meeting this afternoon with the chief of surgery." "Dr. Sheehan is back from maternity leave, and they're offering me a permanent position." "Oh." " Do you think you'll take it?" " Uh..." "I don't know." "I mean, my dad really wants me to stay in San Diego, but there are just some other opportunities" "I've been considering." "For what it's worth, that might be the one thing that your dad and I actually agree on these days." "In fact, um..." "I think I'm asking you to stay." "Yeah, I am." "Okay, you didn't exactly stick that landing there, pal." "No." "But I meant it." "You're stopping, why are you stopping?" "Players with World Series rings" " while playing 15 years on one team:" " (sighs)" "Johnny Bench, George Brett, Frankie Crosetti," " Roberto Clemente..." " Frankie Crosetti?" "Eight World Series rings, 17 years with the Yankees." "Watch a little Ken Burns, Lawson." "(chuckling):" "I'm busy, Baker." "What do you want?" " We're only seven games back." " Yeah, with three teams ahead of us." "It's a long shot, sure." "Me being in the majors was a long shot, but I'm here." "Yeah, I know." "I saw the after-school special." "Listen, rookie, after you spend 15 years in the bigs, then we'll talk career choices." "And this wasn't my idea." "Yeah, but don't act like you don't have a say in this." "I don't know if you noticed, but I'm running out of time, and I haven't won a World Series." "Then win one with us." " If not this year, then next." " I have to stretch." "I've got a game." "Tell me I moved the needle a little bit." "You'll think about sticking around." " I'll tell you what." " What?" "The more you talk, the better I feel about my decision." " Wow." " Yep." "Hey." "How are we feeling about Livan?" "I feel great about Livan with Mike Lawson on this team, and terrified about Livan without Mike." " Why?" " How much time have you got?" "Snap-throws to first when Salvamini isn't ready and the situation doesn't call for it." "Swinging at the first pitch every time." "He just doesn't listen to us." "Is this your way of saying don't trade Mike?" "No." "This is my way of saying don't trade Mike:" "Don't trade Mike." "Unless you want Livan to regress." "Okay." "Thanks for the input." "Uh, one more thing." "Uh, Buck, would you give us some privacy?" "Yup." "Natalie's been hanging around the park a lot lately." "Buck's noticed." "I'm sure you've noticed, too." "Yeah, no." "I-I saw her earlier, and you had lunch with her today, right?" "Yeah." "Today." "Tuesday, last Saturday." "Anyway, she's never really been into baseball, and, uh, with the hours she works, she barely has free time to begin with, so I figure she, uh... uh, she must be dating a player." "I see." "Well, look, um, Natalie's smart, and I'm sure any guy she dates would be one you'd approve of." "Damn it, Oscar." "I just gave you an opening to tell me and you didn't take it." "(sighs) You know about us." "You've been through a lot this year, Oscar." "With the stress of calling up Ginny, dealing with a new boss, a nasty divorce." "Now you throw in that women keel over in your wake and you can understand why I'm concerned" " about you dating my daughter." " You shouldn't be." " I care about her..." "I do." " Uh-huh." "I'm not planning on bailing on her." "Not planning..." "Oh." "That's reassuring." "Hey." "I saw you talking to Mike earlier." "Where's his head?" "Like he'd share anything with me." "I'm just the rookie." "I thought maybe he'd open up to you." "Because I'm a girl?" "(scoffs) No, because you two are so close." "It's a compliment, Baker." "Lighten up." "AMELIA (sighing):" "I should say something." "Can't we just go through one game without any drama?" "No drama." "I can be pleasant." "Watch." "Evelyn, hey." "Hey." "Your hair looks great;" "I love it straight like that." "It's always like this." "Amelia:" "Right." "(chuckling) Look, I've obviously been resistant to your restaurant idea, but it's only because Ginny has such a blind spot when it comes to her brother." "Well, I don't." "And I've got it under control." "Amelia:" "Okay." "Then, I guess that's all there is to say." "♪ ♪" "With the trade talk buzz cranked up to 11, we have to talk about the situation in San Diego." "If Mike Lawson goes to the Cubs," "Chicago has the young guns, the brainiac manager, and the fans on the rooftops." "But now they may have the fire in the hole and that is Mike Lawson." "You okay?" "He's walking out on us." "You almost did." "You forget about your first start?" ""Get me out of the damn game."" "Mike didn't quit on you, did he?" "I'm not happy about this either, but you know that old saying that there's no "I" in team?" "Don't believe it." "There's 25 of 'em." "All with their own lives and their own problems." "He's leaving this team in good hands." "Warning track power." "You hit it out of the infield this season?" "Define infield." "Ginny:" "Oh." "Is that all you got?" "These fans came out early to see you hit bombs." "Come on, now." "Blip:" "Don't worry." "With the wind, that'll be out at Wrigley." "(Ginny and Blip laughing)" " Okay." "Can I give you a tip?" " (laughing)" "What?" " You're opening up." " (Mike grunts)" " (laughter)" " Don't laugh." "Those who can't hit, you know, pitch." "Mike, will you stop her chatter, please?" "Yeah." "Stop the chatter, Mike." "Come on, now. (Ginny laughs)" "(cheering)" "Attaboy." "Okay. (whooping)" "(cheering and whooping)" "Oh!" " Blip:" "Lawson." " (Ginny laughs)" "Good listening." "(laughs)" "You know you're gonna miss me." "We're all gonna miss you if you leave, Mike." "I'm not afraid to say it, why are you?" "Remember, it wasn't my idea to leave." " Then don't." " Woman:" "Mike!" "(fans shouting)" "Sorry, Ted." "I had a big lunch." "So the idea of eating $7 million is a little more than I can stomach." "Copeland:" "Ah, come on, I'm getting fleeced here." "$7 million is fair." "I'll tell you what." "We're willing to keep $3 million of Mike's contract on our books." "But that's it." "When did you become such a hard ass?" "Just talk to your boss and get back to us." "Fine, fine." "But one last thing." " Tomorrow is September 1." " Oscar:" "Yeah, I know," "I know, we have to get this done today so that Lawson's eligible for your post-season roster." "Exactly." "And because we don't want any hiccups," "I better not see Mike Lawson in the lineup tonight." "Wait, did I miss something?" " Do we have a deal?" " Not if Mike Lawson gets hurt." "You remember those thousands of walk-up fans you talked about?" "They will crucify us if Lawson doesn't play his last game." "I understand that, but I'm not gonna blow the deal." "You tweeted that you had confidence in your front office to do the right thing." "Did you mean that?" "Or are you just positioning yourself to play the blame game?" "You've been heard, Oscar." "Ted, you still there?" "I am." "I got scratched?" "I went looking for you." " Because of the deal?" " I guess they're close." "Look, I don't like it any more than you, but you agreed to it when you waived your no-trade clause." "Al, I don't care about the curtain call," "I just want to help us win." "You got to use me." "Sorry, Mike." "Played your last game for the Padres." "Enberg:" "A sold out crowd today in what could be Mike Lawson's last game." "Grant:" "But here in the bottom of the ninth, the Padres down 3-1 to the Dodgers, the fans can't be happy that their hero has yet to set foot on the field." " Strike three!" " All right, let's get it going!" "Come on, boys!" " Let's go." " Grant:" "Look at Mike Lawson." "He's pacing in that dugout like a caged animal." "Grant:" "You know he wants to get in the game." "(indistinct chatter and laughter)" "Try it my way, hmm?" "Just once." "I am your director of social media after all." "Yes, and your area of expertise is finding new and creative ways for people to interact without speaking to each other." "(sighs)" "Fine. (sighs)" "I just wanted to say that I'm sorry." "I overstepped... with both of you." "I wish you only the best with your restaurant business." "And if you need anything, any advice, let me know." " Good to know." " Thank you." " Was that so bad?" " It accomplished nothing." "Enberg:" "The Padres down to their last strike." "Here's the one-two pitch." "Line drive, base hit!" "Duarte rounding second, heading to third." "And they'll hold him there." "No!" "Duarte's going to try and score." "Here comes the throw." "Safe!" "Duarte scores!" "All the way from first!" "Grant:" "It looked like they were telling him to stop at third base, but he must've missed the sign." "Enberg:" "Or he ignored it, Mark." "Either way, Livan's daring base-running has the Padres down by just a single run, two outs here in the ninth." "Whose turn is it to talk to him?" "Rock, paper, scissors?" "Enberg:" "And that's going to force the Dodgers to make a pitching change." "Hey, they're bringing in a lefty." "If you need a right-handed hitter..." " Mike, my hands are tied." " Come on, Al." "Come on!" " Put on a helmet." " What?" "Trust me." "Put on a helmet." "Hey, Rob." "He's got a crush on me." "Do it." "Mike, what are you doing?" " (applause and cheering)" " Mike?" "!" "He's hitting." "Enberg:" "Mike Lawson may, after all, be called on" " to pinch-hit here." " Ginny:" "Skip, any second now, 40,000 fans are about to start chanting." "Crowd (chanting):" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Lawson!" "Mike:" "You're not gonna deny some kid who spent his hard-earned allowance the chance to see his idol swing the bat, are you?" "I don't care about curtain calls, but there's a baseball game out there that we need to win, and Mike gives us the best chance at doing that." "No offense, Voorhies." "All good." "I know where you live." "He's gonna make a hell of a captain someday." "You guys really do want to see me get fired." "Let me win the damn game, Skip." "I promise I won't get hurt." "If they run you out for letting Mike Lawson bat in the ninth inning in a one-run game," "I'll not only leave with you." "I'll quit the damn game for good." "(crowd cheering)" "Just don't get hurt." "Al, what the hell are you doing?" "(applause and cheering)" "Why is Mike Lawson hitting?" " Gonna have to ask Al." " Oscar," "I swear to God, if this trade falls apart..." "You can tweet that it's my fault." "♪IDon'tGiveARat'sAss." "What are you doing?" "Not watching Mike Lawson's last at-bat on a flat screen."

" Go, Mike!" "(cheering continues)" " Strike three!" " Enberg:" "Called strike three!" " That's your ball game." " No way!" "(crowd booing)" "No joy in Mudville." "At least Casey swung the bat." "Let's go." "I want to beat the traffic." "Grant:" "Wow." "He was not expecting a curve ball there." "Enberg:" "The game ends with Mike Lawson caught looking."

"You're worse than Jedi." " Jedi?" " Jedi was my dog." "He used to love to chase skunks in a ravine behind our house." "I trained him, I bribed him, I fenced him in, and he'd just keep getting out and chasing skunks." "He'd come back happy, full of thorns." "(laughs)" "And most importantly, not skunked." "He got cockier and cockier, until finally, he wore me down, and I just let him be a dog." "Then his luck ran out." " He got skunked." " No." "He got eaten by a coyote." "You risked the last out of the game when we were down by two with a winning run in the on-deck circle." "You scored for Livan... not the team." "(sighs)" "Of all people, why him?" "Is this your way of rebelling against me?" "My seeing Oscar has nothing to do with you." "And come on." "Are you ever gonna like any guy that I date?" "(knocking)" "Hey." "Oh." "Sorry." " Is this about Mike hitting?" " It can wait." "I let Mike hit because I wanted him to take a bow, but mostly, I wanted to win, because the math says we're still in this thing, so you can just march back to Charlie and tell him to fire me already" "because I am tired of defending all my decisions." "Al, I'm on your side." "Natalie, can we have a minute?" "Yeah, sure." "Uh, no." " No?" " No." "Because you two are acting like a couple of little boys here." "Dad, you complain that Oscar doesn't have your back anymore, but when we're together, he tells me that you're the reason the team held it together when Ginny arrived." "And you." "You think that my dad is defying you out of spite, but, deep down, you know he's right about Mike Lawson." "And since I have you both here together," "I might as well tell you that" "I am not taking the job at the hospital." "I'm volunteering for International Medical Corps." "Al: "International"?"

"Thank you." "Welcome to the Phantom Zone." ""Zod"" "Get her!" "Mr. Luthor!" "Mr. Luthor, we need to get you off the street." " Your son's already inside." " Lex?" " Yes, sir." " No!" "No!" "Go. I'll get her." "The city's tearing itself apart." "All those people." " We have to help them." " Help them?" "With the powers Fine gave you, you could end the riots." " You could save everyone, Lex."

"You don't think Zod actually... ?" "It's the dagger." "The dagger that Jor-El gave to Clark might still be at the farm." "We can use that to stop Zod." "You mean kill him." "Kill Lex." "I'll make my way to the Daily Planet and see if I can learn anything else about this Kryptonian virus." "If I can match those symbols to the ones that you were scribbling" "That won't help us." "We" " We need Clark to decipher them." " But you're Jor-El's oracle." "Don't you have access to some sort of Kryptonian-English dictionary?" "The connection that I felt with Jor-El and the fortress it's gone." "I can't feel his presence anymore." "But if we can get to that dagger, we can stop Zod." "We can stop all of this." "I can't make it back to Smallville with my leg like this." "Here." "You take care, Miss Sullivan." "You too, Mr. Luthor." "Clark." "Wherever you are, I could really use your help right now." "Where are you from?" "Where?" "I was born on Krypton, I was raised on Earth." "Earth?" "Kal-El?" "How do you know my Kryptonian name?" "I knew your father." "Let go." " Where are you taking me?" " Zod doesn't take orders, he gives them." "What is Zod?" "What are you talking about?" "Oh, God." "You're one of those things from that ship." "Aethyr and Nam-Ek?" "Mere foot soldiers here at my command." "Whatever is happening, it's not you." "It's the ship." "It's Fine controlling you." "You have to fight it, Lex." "I already told you, Lex is gone." "I don't believe that." "Do you really think Zod cares what a primitive like you believes?" "If Lex is really dead then why waste your time with a primitive like me?" "To bear witness to the end of the human era and the rebirth of Krypton." " Krypton?" " A shining jewel in a vast, dark universe." "And you have the privilege of playing a part in its resurrection."

"Why did you crash our plane?" "You were taken as pawns by the Brain interactive Construct... ... the being you know as Milton Fine." "Clark." "I gave him a dagger to kill the vessel of Zod." "Instead, he chose to use it against Fine." "Where is he?" "Where--?" "Where is Clark?" "The dagger is part of this fortress." "Plunging it into Fine destroyed all copies of him... ... but also damaged this structure and released Zod." "What happened to my son, Jor-El?" "Banished forever by Zod." "Bring him back." "You have to bring him home." "Not within my power." "His destiny... ... is now his own." "I've lost my husband and now my son because of your games." "We have both lost much, Martha Kent." "But you must put aside your anguish... ... if you wish to save your world." "Kal-El's mission must be completed." "Retrieve the dagger and kill Zod's vessel... ... Lex Luthor." "You want me to murder Lex?" "Zod has taken over his body... ... and given him all the powers of a true Kryptonian." "How am I supposed to do that?" "You must find a way... ... or all is lost." "All right." "Send me back." "Everything you will have done for Kal-El... ... you have my deepest gratitude." "I could not have wished for a brighter light to guide my son." "Farewell, Martha Kent." "Who are you?" "Raya." "Not that names matter here." "Where is here, exactly?" "Jor-El created this place to hold criminals from the 28 known inhabited galaxies." "So it's a prison?" "That makes you an inmate." "I may be trapped here, but I'm not one of the prisoners." "Am I supposed to just trust you?" "I'm running a little low on that lately." "Good." "In the Zone, trust can get you killed." "Or worse." "Most vicious offenders are condemned for eternity their corporeal bodies destroyed, their essence haunting the wasteland." "The phantoms, like the ones that attacked me." "The crystal your father gave me is the only thing they fear." "How did you know Jor-El?" " l was one of his assistants." " When you were 5?" "Time is meaningless here." "I wanted to stay with Jor-El in the final hours but he wouldn't hear of it." "He thought I'd have a better chance in the Phantom Zone." "Why didn't he and my mother come with you?" "He wouldn't stop trying to save Krypton and your mother wouldn't leave his side." "This is all I have left of your father." "Every day, he still saves my life." "I have to go. I have to stop Zod." " Zod?" " He's on Earth because of me." "Raya, you were my father's assistant." "You helped him create this place." " ls there a way out?" " Zod is a soldier." "He will kill you." "If there is a way for you to save everyone you loved wouldn't you risk dying?" "You truly are your father's son." "Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, don't shoot." "Look, okay, I work here." "You don't have" "Chloe?" "Hey." "This isn't because I didn't call you back, is it?" "Jimmy Olsen." "How did you know to come here?" "This is Lex's home." "If there wasn't part of him still alive inside you, how did you remember this place?" "You had feelings for this human." "Yes." "His feelings for you were also strong." "They left an unpleasant taste when I consumed his essence." "This virus crippling your technology can only be stopped at the original point of infection." "It's the only reason I'm here." " You got rid of the virus." " l need it to acquire information." "The power." "It would take days for your people to restore it." "If they had that much time." " The Pentagon." " There's something there I need." " What are you going to do?" " Finish what I've started." "The black ship would have sent a pulse around the world, reshaping its crust." "into what?" "My home." "That planet you were talking about." "Krypton." "Only this time it will be perfect." "The start of an empire ruled by the bloodline of Zod." "I thought you needed the black ship." "Its hard drive can still initiate the pulse." "But I need access to your military satellites to broadcast it." "I'm not gonna let you do this." "There's nothing to be afraid of." "The fate of your race will not be yours if you give me what I want." "What?" "An heir." "We'll discuss this further when I return from your Pentagon." "Why haven't you used the gateway yourself?" "It won't open for anyone except the House of El." "Your father kept it a secret a back door in case anyone tried to imprison his family here." " Why would he have to worry about that?" " Jor-El was a great man." "And like all great men, there were those who wished him ill." "Kal-El." "Nam-Ek, wait." "Don't kill him." "Why should I spare his life?" " The one who sent me here." " He can open the gateway." "I was bringing him to you." "He can free us all." "Martha." "Martha." "You're all right." " Your son, Lex, l-- - l know, I know." "I know what I have to do." "I... ." "Where's Clark?" "Lana." "I don't know where Clark is." "I heard him talking to Chloe about killing Lex." " l didn't understand what was happening." " Lana, where's Lex?" "We have to find him." "It's too late." "The things he can do now, I don't think there's anyone who can stop him." "There might be." "I have to kill him with this." "You would never get close enough to even use that." "But I can." "A lot of people are going to die if you don't let me do this." "It's the only way." "That's all it takes to end the world?" "And begin a new one." "You freed yourself but didn't run." "Why?" "I realized there was nothing to run to." "Sometimes to survive, you have to give up the things that you care about and just give in to your fate." "You would give me an heir?" "Willingly?" "The first of many." "Perhaps I have underestimated the females of your species." "Or maybe you just underestimated me." "You shouldn't play with things you don't understand." "Did you really think you could make a difference?" "Nothing can change the fate of your world." "I was in the basement scanning photos into the database when everything went screwy." "First official day at the Daily Planet, and the world decides to end, you know?" "God, I can't believe you actually work here." "What is that?" "Jimmy!" "Since when are there earthquakes in Metropolis?" "The others will be here soon." " Open the gateway." " He doesn't know how." "But I do." "Give me the knife." "No." "His blood, the blood of the House of El, is the key to open the gateway." "I trusted you." "Trust is for the weak." "You're right." "Nam-Ek!" "The gateway!" "Go, Kal-El!" "Raya!" "What's happening?" "Clark." "Where is he?" "You could have been at my side as Krypton is reborn." "Now you'll die with all the rest." "Let her go." "Kal-El." "No!" "I don't know how you escaped the Zone, but you were safer where you were." "Did you really think you could win, Kal-El?" "You're an idealistic fool, just like your father." "So easily beaten." "Disappointing." "I won't let you destroy Earth like you did Krypton." "Jor-El couldn't stop me and neither will his son." " Then I'll die trying." " But you won't be the only one." "These humans you care so much about." "Swear your allegiance to me, and I'll allow the ones you love the most to live." "Kneel before Zod." "Kneel." "My father sends his regards." "Jor-El." "No!" " All right." "Keep it steady." " lt just hurts so much." "If you could just give me something for the pain... ." "Hey, Smallville." "Hey, how you feeling?" "Bad enough to know I'm still alive." "Guess I have your mom to thank for that." "You know, honestly I don't even remember the plane going down." "The cabin lost pressure, I was gasping for breath and then I was in this palace of ice." "And it was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen." "I was bathed in this warm light and I knew everything was gonna be okay." "Lois, you were hurt pretty badly." " Maybe you were hallucinating." " No, it was real." "I think I died and went to heaven." "Well, then I'm glad you're back." "All right." "All right." "Thank you." "Lana." "Are you all right?" "What happened?" " You don't remember?" " l was in the field with you." "Then everything went white." "Next thing I know, I woke up here." "is that why you're afraid of me?" "is all this because of me?" "Lex, you weren't yourself." "The things you did, it wasn't your fault." "I tried to stop it." "Lex, I almost killed you." "Lana." "Hey." "I would have done the same thing." "Look, I can never make up for what happened." "All I can do is move forward and try to rebuild everything I've damaged." "That might not be easy." "Well, nothing worth it ever is." "Clark." "Oh, my God." "I thought you were dead." "Hi." "So did I for a while there." "What happened?" "Where did you go?" "A place I never wanna go again." "Are you okay?" "Yeah, everything's great now that you're here." "Chloe." "Before I left there was this moment that we... ." "You mean when I laid one on you?" "Don't worry, it was the end of the world." "It's not like I'm expecting us to hook up." "Yeah." "Me neither." " Hey, bright eyes." " Hey." "Oh, bad time?" "No." "I was just talking to a friend." " Grow them big in Kansas, don't they?" " l'm sorry." "Jimmy Olsen, this is Clark Kent." "Actually, it's James Olsen." "Really?" "Since when?" "Oh, since now-ish... ." "You wanna grab some dinner at the vending machine?" "Love to, James." "Clark, are you hungry?" "Me?" "No. I'm okay." "You guys go ahead." "Catch you later, C. K." "Clark." "How are Lois and Chloe?" " Fine." "They're both gonna be fine." " Good." "Lionel told me his connection to Jor-El is gone." "Along with any influence he had over him." "Maybe we're all better off without Jor-El in our lives." "I took Raya's crystal to the fortress for safekeeping." "I tried to talk to Jor-El, but he wouldn't" "Wouldn't answer." "The fortress is dead." "Everything's changing." "Dad's gone." "I can't talk to Lex." "Lana's... ." "I don't know where to go from here." "I didn't either when I was your age." "Just follow your heart and you'll always do the right thing." "Maybe some Kryptonians believed the same thing." "Jor-El sacrificed himself trying to save Krypton." "Raya died saving me." "Every world needs its heroes, Clark." "They inspire us to be better than we are." "And they protect us from the darkness that's just around the corner." "Subtitles by sdl Media Group"

"No one..." "Is getting through that." "Wow." "When are you installing the torture chamber?" "You like it?" "I call it medieval chic." "I don't care what it looks like as long as it keeps Regina and her skeleton keys out." "You're pretty handy for a writer." "Where'd you learn how to do all this?" "Wood shop." "Eighth grade." "Oh, speaking of school, have to get going." "Um, are you sure you're ready to go back?" "After a stint behind bars, how tough can a room full of fourth graders be?" "Besides, aren't you the one we need to be worried about?" "Me?" "Why?" "Well..." "You did threaten to take Henry away from Regina." "Oh, that wasn't a threat." "I'm hiring Mr. Gold to help build a case against her." "She tried to frame you for murder." "But you do know what happens if you win?" "Yeah." "And you're ready?" "To be his mom?" "Yeah." "Code red." "Code red." "Hey, Henry." "What's going on?" "Meet me at Granny's." "It's an operation cobra emergency." "I'm on my way." "Emma, wait up." "You heard the kid." "Operation cobra calls." "I didn't think you believed any of that." "Oh, I don't, but sometimes it's the only way to get through to Henry." "You know, a custody battle against Regina isn't going to accomplish anything." "You need to look at the big picture." "That's the only way you're gonna understand what you're up against." "That's the only way you'll know how to beat Regina." "Okay, new guy, how's that?" "Take the day off." "Come with me, and I'll show you." "And where exactly would we be going on this magical mystery tour?" "If I told you, you would never come." "Oh, come on." "Take a leap of faith." "You come with me, and I promise you, you'll find exactly what you're looking for." "My kid needs me." "I don't have time for faith." "Hey." "What's the emergency?" "Shh!" "This is sensitive." "If it's sensitive, why are we at Granny's, out in the open?" "I'm hungry." "Who else knows that we hide the book at the sheriff's station?" "No one." "Why?" "Someone changed it." "There's a new story in it." "Why would someone add a new story?" "To tell something we need to know about the curse." "And what would that be?" "I don't know." "The story isn't finished." "Why would someone go to so much trouble to add a new story and then not bother finishing it?" "That's what's weird." "The story's about Pinocchio." "Everyone knows how that ends." "Well, maybe that's why it was left out." "Or maybe there's more to it." "Henry, you are gonna be late for school." "Let's go." "Hold on, my boy!" "I'm trying, father!" "Faster, father!" "Faster!" "He's catching up!" "The current..." "it's too strong!" "Don't let go!" "Aah!" "What is it?" "We must abandon ship." "Take this." "This is the only one." "No, father." "I'm made of wood." "I'll float." "We can both survive." "No." "We don't risk." "Whoa!" "Whoa!" "Take it!" "No, father!" "You take it!" "Save yourself!" "Pinocchio!" "Pinocchio?" "Pinocchio?" "You saved me." "Oh!" "Where are you?" "Oh!" "Where are you?" "Oh, no." "No." "No." "No." "Oh." "No." "I wish I could've saved you, my boy." "We still can." "Please." "Save him." "Father?" "Pinocchio..." "Look." "I'm..." "A real boy." "I'm a real boy!" "Thank you." "I don't know how I can ever repay you." "Th... this is all I-I ever wanted." "You and Pinocchio have found each other." "Now go." "Live your life together as a family." "Come, my son." "Remember, Pinocchio, be brave, truthful, and unselfish." "So long as you do that, you will always remain a real boy." "Mr. Gold?" "We need to meet." "It's about Emma." "There's a... problem." "Mm-hmm." "Oh!" "Ms. Blanchard." "I see you're back." "Yes." "Isn't it wonderful?" "Everything worked out." "Henry forgot his lunch." "Have you seen him?" "He's with his mother." "Ms. Blanchard, is there a problem?" "Not any more." "Though someone did go to a lot of trouble to make it look like I had done something horrible." "But they failed." "Yes." "Sidney glass, who's safely incarcerated." "If it was Sidney." "Well, ask your roommate." "He confessed." "Of course he did." "Are you insinuating something?" "Yes, I am." "But I forgive you." "Even if you can't admit what you did," "I forgive you anyway." "Your life must be filled with such incredible loneliness if your only joy comes from destroying everyone else's happiness." "It's so sad, mayor Mills, because despite what you think, it won't make you happy." "It's only going to leave a giant hole in your heart." "There's Henry now." "What are you doing here?" "You forgot your lunchbox." "Thanks." "Henry, it's time for a change." "I think it's time to transfer you to a new class with a new teacher." "Why do you want me out of Ms. Blanchard's class?" "Is it because you framed her?" "Henry!" "Do you really think" "I'm capable of doing something so horrible?" "Of course." "You're the Evil Queen." "Enough." "Those fairy tales are not real." "Ms. Blanchard should never have given you that book." "She should be grateful I'm not trying to get her fired." "Go ahead and try." "It won't work." "No matter what you do," "Snow White will have her happy ending." "She and prince charming will be together." "The curse will end." "Good will win." "And I'm not transferring classes." "Ah, Mr. Booth." "I'll be with you in a moment." "On second thought, tell me... as one admirer of antiquities to another... do you think it's worth my while having this clock repaired?" "I'll take your silence as a "yes," then." "You know, I'm very busy right now, and, uh, I'm just a one-man shop." "But, uh, I'll get to the clock as fast as I can." "I wouldn't ask for anything more." "Good day." "H-how are you?" "First time seeing dear old dad since you arrived at Storybrooke?" "I'm s-sor... you know, what surprises me is why a man who claims to be at death's door can't even bring himself to say hello to his father." "What are you afraid of?" "That's, uh..." "That's my business." "Oh." "Fair enough." "Let's talk about ours." "You claim to be the only person who can make Ms. swan believe, that you could get her to do exactly what she was brought here to do, and yet, for a man who's running out of time," "you don't seem to be in much of a hurry." "It's not me slowing us down." "It's her." "All she can think about right now is getting custody of her kid." "Sounds like sheriff swan needs a course correction." "She's coming to you for legal advice." "And you want me to steer her toward you." "I can get her there, to believing." "Trust me." "Ah." "I'm sorry." "It's just that knowing who you are and your nature, trust is a big ask." "Fear not." "A gentle nudge I shall provide." "Align the gear on the spindle." "Now press the spring." "Oh!" "Good work!" "You fixed it, eh?" "Bravo!" "Aah!" "Did you do this, Pinocchio?" "Oh!" "Remember what the blue fairy told you about being a good boy?" "Thanks." "Oh, it's okay." "He meant no harm." "I'd be laughing, too, if..." "I wasn't so dizzy" "I'm sorry." "I meant to be good." "I'm not here because of you, Pinocchio." "I'm afraid I bring bad news." "Wait in your room, my boy." "Go on." "H-hang on, Pinocchio." "I'll come with you." "What is it?" "The Evil Queen... she's threatened the entire kingdom with a curse, a curse that will rip away all that we love." "Then we must stop her." "It's too late for that." "So all is lost?" "No." "There is hope, if you will help us." "Me?" "Snow White is about to give birth to a child... a child who will save us all when she reaches her 28th year... but only if she can be protected from the powerful effects of the dark curse." "But how can I protect this child?" "There is an enchanted tree, much like the one you carved Pinocchio from." "If fashioned into a vessel, it can protect the child from the queen's magic." "Will you do this?" "I cannot lose my boy." "I have lost..." "So much." "I cannot lose him, too." "Then build the wardrobe." "That's how you will save us all." "I have to save him." "I have to get Henry away from Regina." "I must admit, your intentions are admirable." "However," "I won't be taking your case." "What?" "You know what Regina did." "Yes, but we can't prove it." "And given the mayor's sway in this town, any proceedings against her would be long and drawn out and futile." "The only certainty is Henry would suffer." "You can't do that to your boy." "So we leave him in the same house with that sociopath?" "I'm sorry, sheriff." "My mind's made up." "Well, then change it." "The only person I've ever seen go head-to-head with Regina and win is you." "That's because I know how to pick my battles." "Then pick this one." "I'm sorry." "I'm afraid I'm just simply not the man to help you beat mayor Mills." "No." "You're not." "Emma." "Hey." "Take it easy." "Is everything okay?" "No." "I am just about out options." ""Just about"?" "You told me to beat Regina, I need to see the big picture." "Show it to me." "Oh!" "Ow." "Car trouble?" "It won't start." "I've got a car full of groceries, and well, it hasn't exactly been a banner day." "Let's see." "Your battery's dead." "What?" "I don't have any jumper cables, but I can give you a ride home in my truck." "Oh, no, no." "Thank you, but I couldn't impose." "I insist." "Unless you want to have a car full of melted rocky road." "Sure." "Thank you for being my knight in shining armor." "Well, it's more like flannel, but you're welcome." "Hey, why don't you stay for dinner?" "I bought more than enough for me and Henry, and..." "Well, I'm making lasagna." "Oh, I-I shouldn't." "It's getting late, and I've gotta get up early tomorrow for work." "Of course." "Oh, you can just set the bags over there." "What is it?" "Henry." "He's having dinner with Archie after his session instead of coming home." "I'm sorry." "Lately it seems like he'll do anything to avoid spending time with me." "But I-I shouldn't be burdening you with my problems." "You've already helped me more than enough for one day." "Thank you." "You know what?" "I do love lasagna." "The Evil Queen will stop at nothing to destroy prince charming and Snow White's happiness." "So we must stop at nothing to undo her curse." "It's beautiful." "This is the last enchanted tree in the entire realm." "It can be done." "I can make a beautiful wardrobe out of this." "The tree contains enough magic to protect two from the queen's curse." "Before the curse strikes, before snow gives birth to her child, she and the prince will enter the wardrobe and travel to a distant land, a land without magic, where snow will give birth to her child." "Then when she reaches her 28th year, she can begin the battle that will defeat the Evil Queen." "You see why it is vital that you complete the task at hand?" "Pinocchio wasn't always a real boy." "When the curse strikes, when the things we love are ripped away, he will be turned back into wood again, won't he?" "I'm afraid it's impossible to say." "Uh..." "You're frightening the boy." "Oh, no." "Shh." "I will build your wardrobe, on one condition..." "If Pinocchio can take the second spot in it." "You can't bargain like this, not when the entire realm is in danger." "If I don't, I will lose my boy, maybe forever." "I-I can't risk that." "Snow can raise the child without her husband." "Geppetto, think about the example you're setting for Pinocchio." "Oh!" "Oh!" "You may be a conscience, but you have not earned the right to tell me what to do." "Please." "I'm only trying to help." "Help?" "Help, like you "helped" my parents?" "Your debt to me can never be fulfilled." "But a start would be staying out of this." "Understand?" "Yes." "Good." "Hey." "Hey." "Here." "Here, boy." "Oh!" "Pinocchio goes through..." "Or no one does." "And what will we tell the prince and Snow White?" "You will tell them that the tree contains enough magic to protect only one." "Do we have a deal..." "Or no?" "The tree is enchanted." "If fashioned into a vessel, it can ward off any curse." "Geppetto, can you build such a thing?" "Me and my boy..." "we can do it." "This will work." "We all must have faith." "There is, however, a catch." "The enchantment is indeed powerful, but all power has its limits." "A choice must be made." "August, you gonna tell me where we're going and how it's gonna help me beat Regina?" "We're going on a trip, Emma, so I can tell you somebody's story." "Whose story?" "Mine." "How did you like it?" "Best lasagna I ever had." "You really know how to work some magic." "Here." "Let me get the dishes." "Oh, no, David." "No, no, no, no." "It's the least I can do." "You saved me from having to call the tow truck today, and now you're doing my dishes." "It doesn't seem right." "Please." "The last couple of weeks haven't exactly been easy for me, and you've been there the whole time." "Well, I can't help it." "I feel responsible for you, ever since I... found you." "You know, after all this time, no one's ever told me the story." "What story?" "About how you found me." "That's probably because I'm the only one who knows it." "I was working late." "It... it was a cold night." "Must've been 10 below." "And on my drive home, I realized I left my phone at the office." "I remember thinking just to forget about it and I didn't really need it, but... something inside me told me to turn around and go back." "And that's when you saw me?" "You were on the side of the road, unconscious..." "So cold you felt like ice." "The doctor said if I found you ten minutes later, it would've been too late." "It's amazing, isn't it?" "If I hadn't forgotten my phone," "I wouldn't have been on the road at that time." "Yeah, it's almost..." "Almost like the universe wanted you to find me." "Uh..." "I-I'm sorry." "I-I hope you didn't get the wrong idea." "No, I'm sorry." "I just got caught up in the moment." "You don't have to apologize." "I just... we..." "This is great like it is." "Thanks again for dinner." "Aah!" "Doc, do something." "It's going to be okay." "The wardrobe's almost finished." "Just... just hold on." "Circumstances have changed." "What do you mean, "changed"?" "Snow White is going to give birth early." "The savior will be born at any moment." "Pinocchio can't go." "Snow White must accompany her daughter or all will be lost." "She must be protected." "This is a land with no magic." "She will need someone to guide her, someone to make her believe in her destiny." "Who better than her mother?" "But we had a deal." "There is no time to argue." "The curse is almost upon us, and I must return to the fairies to make final preparations." "It is vital that you tell Snow White what I just told you." "Her child is our only hope." "She is the only one who can save us." "And my boy... what will happen to him?" "All we can do is have faith that one day the savior will restore all that we have lost." "Shall we tell Snow White?" "No." "Get in the wardrobe, my boy." "Geppetto, you can't." "Things have changed." "The savior needs her mother." "No, she needs someone to protect her, to make her believe in her destiny." "My boy... he can do that." "I don't understand, father." "She said..." "I don't care what she said." "All that matters is you are safe." "But you told me to be honest, father." "You told me not to lie." "Sometimes..." "We have to lie to protect the people we love, eh?" "You must look out for the child in this new land." "You must protect her." "I don't want to go." "I don't want to leave you." "Pinocchio, you must remember what the blue fairy said." "In 28 years, you must make sure the savior believes." "Promise me you'll do that." "That is the only way we'll... we'll see each other again." "I promise." "Oh." "Good." "Here." "There will be many temptations in this new world, Pinocchio, but as long as you remain brave, truthful, and unselfish, you will not fail." "Here." "Get in." "Get in." "Get in." "You'll find me again." "And on that day, I will look at you with pride." "You will be a great man, my son." "Oh." "What the hell is this?" "Last I checked, it was a diner." "No more screwing around." "I am not a character in one of your books." "What the hell are we doing here?" "I think you know." "You've been here before." "This is the diner you were brought to when you were found as a baby." "So you found an article about me." "So what?" "I thought this trip was supposed to be about you." "It is." "This is my story, and it's your story." "And how is that?" "That 7-year-old boy who found you..." "That was me." "You must look out for this child in this new land." "Promise me you'll do that." "That is the only way we'll..." "we'll see each other again." "I promise." "Shh." "Shh." "Why are we in the woods?" "All the answers you've been searching for are right where I found you." "See?" "You're not that 7-year-old boy." "I wasn't found in the woods." "I was found on the side of a highway." "Why do you think that?" "Because you read it in the newspaper?" "Did it ever occur to you that maybe that 7-year-old boy lied about where he found you?" "No." "But it occurs to me that you've been lying to me about everything, and I'm done listening." "When I found you, you were wrapped in a blanket, and the name "Emma" was embroidered along the bottom of it." "That wasn't in the article, was it?" "How would I know that unless I was there?" "Okay." "Let's say you were that kid." "Why lie about where you found me?" "I lied to protect you." "From what?" "That." "A tree?" "You've read Henry's book, right?" "You know about the curse, don't you?" "Your role in it?" "It's true, Emma." "We both came into this world..." "Through this tree." "You're asking me to believe that you are a fairy tale character?" "Pinocchio." "Right." "Of course Pinocchio." "Explains all the lying." "You're the one who added the story to Henry's book." "I needed you to know the truth." "The truth is you are out of your mind, and you're not even a very good liar." "Why not write the end of that story?" "Because this is the ending, and we're writing it right now." "And how does this story end?" "With you believing." "Not gonna happen." "Emma?" "Emma, wait." "What... is wrong..." "With your leg?" "I failed." "What are you talking about?" "It doesn't matter." "You don't believe." "If you think that by making me feel sorry for you that something's gonna change, you are wrong." "I am not screwing around here." "Whatever you believe or don't, this is real, Emma." "I am sick." "That's an understatement." "You ever been to Phuket?" "It's beautiful." "Amazing island." "Full of pleasures." "The perfect place to lose oneself." "That's where I was when you decided to stay in Storybrooke." "How do you know when I decided to stay in Storybrooke?" "Because at 8:15 in the morning," "I woke up with a shooting pain in my leg." "That's 8:15 at night in Storybrooke." "Sound familiar?" "That's when time there started to move forward again." "I was supposed to be there for you, and I wasn't." "Because I was halfway around the world," "I got a painful reminder of just how far I'd strayed." "If that tree won't make you believe, maybe this will." "How does that prove anything?" "Look." "August, I'm looking." "You don't see it, do you?" "See what?" "Your denial is more powerful than I thought." "It's preventing you from seeing the truth." "Okay, one of us is losing it here, and it's not me." "You don't want to believe." "After everything you've seen, why can't you just do it?" "Why is it so important to you that I do?" "Because I, the town..." "everyone needs you." "I don't want them to need me." "Well, that's too bad, because we all do." "You're saying that I am responsible for everyone's happiness?" "That is crap!" "I didn't ask for that!" "I don't want it!" "Right now." "A little while ago, you didn't want Henry either, but then he came to you, and now you are fighting like hell for him." "For him!" "Because that is all I can handle right now." "And I'm not even doing a good job at that!" "Now you're telling me I have to save everyone?" "That is beyond ridiculous." "I don't want any of it." "Well, that's too bad, Emma, because that doesn't change the truth." "You are our only hope." "Then you're all screwed." "Shh." "Shh." "Don't cry, Emma." "Look at me." "Watch this." "There." "That's better, right?" "Do those tools belong to you?" "I was just trying to fix the crib." "I didn't want Emma to fall out and get hurt." "Don't ever touch anything in this house again." "Nothing belongs to you." "Yes, Mr. Raskind." "Hey." "You okay?" "Uh, can you keep a secret?" "Wow." "Where'd you get that?" "I stole it from the sock drawer." "It's enough to buy us all bus tickets out of here." "You're leaving?" "When?" "Right now." "You wanna come?" "I told my father I'd take care of Emma." "Can she come?" "Please?" "We can't take care of baby." "You want to stay here for the rest of your life?" "Be my guest." "Wait." "I'm sorry, Emma." "Faster and faster." "Come on." "Work." "Work." "Work." "Work." "Work." "You see?" "Align the gear on the spindle, then press the spring." "Who taught you that?" "My father." "He taught you well." "He must be very proud." "I don't know about that." "Don't think I became the man he wanted me to be." "Well, have you tried to make it up to him?" "I made him a promise..." "A long time ago." "By the time I got around to making good on it," "I think it was too late." "But you kept your promise." "You realized your mistake, and you tried to fix it." "That's important." "If I had a son, that would be enough for me." "You look like you might be shorthanded." "Hmm." "I get by." "How would you feel about..." "Taking on an assistant?" "I can't pay you." "That's okay." "I just feel like fixing things." "Come in." "Vieni, vieni." "Code red." "Code red." "Henry?" "Emma, what's wrong?" "I need to talk to you." "About operation cobra?" "No." "About us." "Meet me downstairs." "If my mom sees me out here talking to you, she'll get really mad." "Henry, I need to ask you something very important." "Do you want to get away from Regina?" "Do you want to come and live with me?" "More than anything." "Okay." "Then buckle up." "You ready?" "Okay." "Why?" "Where we going?" "We're leaving Storybrooke."

"That kid thinks too much." "He's worried about Higaki." "Higaki's also changed since their match." "He doesn't hate Sugata." "Then what's Sanshiro's problem?" "Mr. Yano... tell him this:" ""If you feel you're in a tight spot, come back to look at the stake in the pond."" "That won't be necessary." "Mr. Yano, he's finally become a man."

"Someday you might run into a sword." "It would be a pity if that were the end of the oldest family in France." "Your Majesty commands me to marry?" "May I ask one final favor?" "You select my bride." "I think you'll like this child." "She's on the threshold of life." "Aline, this is the Marquis de Maynes." "It seems that your dancing has made a profound impression upon him." "He wishes to express his admiration." "Cousin, this is my protégé, Aline de Gavrillac." "Charming." "You dance delightfully." "You sing, too, no doubt." " A little, sir." " And you play some instrument?" "The clavichord." "And I imagine you are skillful with needle and thread." "Yes, sir. I knit and sew." "I also embroider, here and there." "I have read the plays of Corneille, Racine, Molière, and Voltaire." "I did not understand a word of them." "I ride a little and fall off a lot." "I don't cook too well, but I'm quite good at chess... although I prefer snakes and ladders." "I have a nodding acquaintance with geography, geometry... astronomy, philosophy, and botany." "I'm afraid I gave up algebra when I was 12." " She also has spirit, cousin." " So I see." "May I have the honor of waiting upon you while I am here in Paris?" "I also play chess... though I regret I am unfamiliar with snakes and ladders." "Aline will instruct you, won't you, Aline?" "If you say so. I'll speak to Father when I go home for his birthday." "I shall write to him." "I shall tell him it is my earnest desire that you and the Marquis become... good friends." "BlNET presents his famous actors" "Lenore?" "It's me." "Don't be nervous." "Forgive my prolonged neglect, my pet." "For here I am again, at your feet." "How softly your skin shines in the moonlight." "Darling?" "It's me!" "I'm back!" "Monsieur Binet's charming troupe of traveling players, wake up!" "Where is she?" "My Lenore." "Your leading lady." "Where is she?" " She's not here." " Not here?" "Why isn't she here?" " She's gone to Paris." " Paris." "You're lying." " To see her family." " Her father is sick." " Father?" "She never had a father." " Maybe a sister." "Never had a sister, a brother, a father, a mother, an aunt, an uncle..." " She has no one but me, has she?" " Only a husband." "A husband?" "Monsieur Binet, heaven's gift to the theater." "Are you by any chance trying to tell me that my Lenore is married?" "Yes, indeed." "Well, practically." " Practically?" " All but..." " All but, what?" " Married." "She got tired of waiting for you to make her your own." "And now she goes to the altar with another." "Paris." "Tuesday." "Noon." "Lenore, my bride." "My beautiful." "What have I done to deserve you?" "So far, remarkably little." "But I'm living in hopes." " Roses." " They're lucky for lovers." "Are they?" "What a pity they fade so quickly." "These will not fade, my beloved." "Diamonds." "I thought of your eyes and went right out and bought them." "Just my eyes?" "How sweet." "I must see you start thinking about all of me." " l'm the happiest of men." " And the richest." "Well, not quite." "They say you sell more sausages than anyone else in Paris." " Except for the Delmore brothers." " The Delmore brothers?" "Are they married?" " They're dead." " Dead?" "But with you at my side, I'll make more and bigger sausages... than anyone else in France." "Forgive the intrusion, but vehicle ordinance number 4012... forbids osculation in public conveyances." "First offenders get three days in the pillory..." " Hello, my pet." "How are you?" " Are you mad?" "We're all out of our minds." "Haven't you observed it?" "Lunatic!" "I'm on my way to my wedding with a lunatic." " Stop the coach!" " No." "Patience." "We're almost there." "And Lenore desires to be married." "Don't you, my darling?" "I certainly do." ""Lenore"? "Darling"?" "Do you know this man?" "Yes, I know him." "That is, I used to know him." "He's a stupid fellow and an awful liar." "Pay no attention to him." "Who is he?" " Who are you?" " l've often wondered." "They call me Andre Moreau." " Whoever you are, get out this instant!" " Won't you sit down?" "That wedding gown is most becoming, my darling... but about this marriage, I have my doubts." " l'm not interested." " How dare you!" " You're wrong for each other." " This is monstrous, atrocious, outrageous!" "We have here a middle-aged gentleman, an honest fellow, a solid citizen." "What does he ask of a wife?" "That she sit by the fire of an evening... the little ones at her feet, darning his hose... while he tells of the gossip of the sausage bazaars." "He wants a mere half-dozen children." "Better make that a dozen." "And who does he pick for a wife?" "An actress." "A traveling player, experienced in a number of roles... but never, I fancy, as the mother of 12." " Did you say an actress?" " Yes." "Hasn't she told you?" "Lenore is an actress." "An indifferent one, but... lndifferent?" "I am superb." "The theater's in my blood." "Know what that means?" "One night, in the middle of supper, she'll get the old urge." "And while you're having pickles, she's off on the road again." " l have only one urge at the moment." " l know." "To marry me." " Marry you?" " Yes." "Why didn't you tell me?" " Why didn't you ask me?" " But you never mentioned it." "Darling." "But... my other bridegroom..." "Your other bridegroom is no longer with us." "I shall always remember him." "And now, to make you respectable." " Excuse me, my darling." " Where are you going?" " Philippe will be waiting." " Philippe?" "Philippe de Valmorin." "My best friend." "You know, my best man." "He promised to be here at noon with the ring." "Andre!" "Don't be nervous." "What's your name?" "Ivan the Terrible." "What's yours?" "If you're Andre Moreau, you must go to Philippe's at once." "There's trouble." "All right, come on!" " Andre, stop!" " All right, my pet, don't be nervous." " Andre, what happened?" " Unforeseen accident." "Owing to circumstances entirely beyond my control... I'm afraid there'll be a slight delay before I make you my own." "Don't be nervous." " What's that?" " lt's a carriage." "Stopping here." "What do you mean?" " ls it Andre?" " No. lt's a coachman." "He's jumped down." "He's coming in." "Here." "Good morning." " Thank heaven you're here." " Delighted to see you, sir." " What's happened here, a hurricane?" " No." "The King's men." " They came for Philippe." " Philippe?" "What for?" "Did they take him?" "No, he's safe." "But they're still outside watching the house." "See?" "Hiding there in the doorway." "They looked everywhere." "Breaking, smashing things." " lt was dreadful." " Where is he?" "Andre, you're dressed very oddly." "Are you in trouble, too?" "Well, not yet, darling, but it threatens." "I've a young lady downstairs in the coach with an itch to be married." "She's made two attempts since breakfast, and her temper is rising." "I've heard of the bridegroom running for cover..." " but never the best man." "What happened?" " They found out I wrote this." ""Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, by Marcus Brutus."" "I'm Marcus Brutus." "There are copies all over Paris." "We even smuggled some into the royal bedchamber." " We?" " Thousands of us, Father." "United against the aristocratic tyrants." "I take it aristocratic tyrants includes your own father and mother?" " Father, please." " l may be a poor man... but by birth I am an aristocrat." " And so are you." " Please." " That pamphlet is high treason." " Father, you don't understand." "Well, what do you think of it?" "The grammar is appalling." "On the first page... you doubled a negative, split an infinitive, and left out three commas." "Infinitives, negatives, commas." "He prattles punctuation and France is in agony." "In agony?" "I wasn't aware of it." "You never take anything seriously." "Nothing matters to you." "Why do you fight with your best friend when your own life is in danger?" " What's to be done, Andre?" " Marcus Brutus must go into hiding." "We've got to get him out of the city at once." "How?" "I haven't the slightest idea." "Unless..." "Get into this." "Listen carefully." "Outside there's a horse and coach." "Go boldly out, mount the box and drive off." "No one will question you, except the lady inside." "She may become violent." "Drive her to the Forest of Beauvry." "You have money?" " Five crowns." " Scarcely enough to start a revolution." "I'll get the money." "Meet me at the signpost in the forest at 9:00 tonight." "is that clear?" "Off with you." "Goodbye, Mother." " l'm sorry, Father." " Take my sword." "Try not to dishonor it." "Thank you, Father." "Good luck." "It's all right." "He's very young." "Look after him." "As you've always looked after me." "I swear it." "God bless you, Andre." "And now for the stuff that makes fools of princes... and princes of fools." "Money." "Andre, you be careful what you do." "Precisely my intention." "I go now to consult my attorney... the eminent lawyer Fabian." "is this the bald pate of the lawyer Fabian?" "Yes." " Moreau, I can't see you." " You must be shortsighted. I'm here." "Be good enough to make out an advance on my allowance for next year, say half." "Next year's allowance?" "lmpossible!" "Figaro, you may leave us." "But there is no more money." "None at all." " Didn't you get my letter?" " l never read letters." "But I wrote and told you the allowance has been stopped." "Stopped?" "The gentleman is no longer able to provide for your welfare." "Put that thing down and get out of here." "I shall go to this gentleman and extract the allowance in person." " What is his name?" " His name?" "lmpossible." "You know I can't do that, Andre." "I know nothing at all!" "For 30-odd years... I have made a profession of ignorance with particular reference to my real name... my obscure beginnings, and my mysterious birth." "If you fidget, I may draw blood." "You're making me nervous." "Where was I?" "Yes, my birth." "Being adequately financed by whoever was responsible... for my arrival in what is termed "the wrong side of the blanket"... I was content to be ignorant of my parentage." "But now I need money." "It is at this moment that my elusive papa concludes... that his duty is done... and that there should be no more cakes and ale... for his mischievous youth." "A lamentable conclusion in any event, but at this moment, deplorably timed." "We must therefore face the fact... that the hour has come to tear down the veil... and unmask this philandering gentleman." "Who is he, Fabian?" "Who is my father?" "No!" "I won't tell." "You're making me nervous again." "I can't betray a client's confidence." "Look at my hand, how it shakes and trembles with emotion." "What is his name, Fabian?" "The name of my father." "What is it?" "Count de Gavrillac." " The address?" " ln Normandy." "The manor of Gavrillac." "Near Dieppe." "Here I am, Andre!" "All in one piece?" "Where's the lady?" "My bride-to-be, the light of my life." " Come on, boy." "Where's Lenore?" " l don't know. I mislaid her." "You mislaid her?" "What is she, a button, a handkerchief that can be dropped or sent to the laundry?" "You dunderhead, where is she?" "When we stopped at the city gates, she was out and away... before I could catch her." "Say, did she leave any message?" "She just left." "I'm sorry, Andre. I let you down again." "The oceans are full of fish and the heavens with stars." "To contemplate one woman to the exclusion of others... may be for some men, but not for me." "Come on, boy." "To Gavrillac!" "It's coming, Andre, and no one can stop it." "The apple cart the tyrants are riding will be overturned." "I tell you, it can't be much longer." "Longer?" "I think it's already happened." "Happy the rascal traveling life's byway... to whom the gods say, "Here's an easy switch" ""You may have lost Diana on the highway" ""But, look, there is Aphrodite in a ditch"" " Molière?" " Moreau." "Andre Moreau at your service." "You make up poetry, Andre Moreau." "A carriage maker would be more apropos." "I suppose you don't know how to mend a broken wheel?" "Unfortunately, no." " A broken heart, now..." " Thank you." "My heart is quite intact." "I envy you." "Mine is in chains from this moment." "The lady's carriage needs attention." "Will you see to it?" "It may take a little time." "Now, I happen to know of a nearby tavern where we could discuss the weather." " We?" " lt's not of the best repute." "You'll need me to protect you from the undesirables." "including yourself?" "You have a point." "I'll endeavor to bear it in mind." "It won't be necessary. I'm not coming." " Then I shall come with you." " Come where with me?" "To the ends of the earth, if that's where you're going." "I'm going home, and that's half a mile." "Half a mile with you is as 50 leagues with Cleopatra." "Milady..." "Goodbye, poet." "Thank you for your rhyming." "My coach is ready, and we have to part." "Your coachman has abominable timing." "He mends your carriage but breaks my heart." "Goodbye." "Don't speak." "Don't say a word. I love you." "You look at me astonished." "You cannot be more surprised than I." "But... I love you." "Only you and you alone." "Do you believe a word I say?" "Don't answer. I forgive your disbelief." "My own ears find it hard enough to believe what my lips are telling you." "One thing alone is clear." "You can't ride into my life and out again... without my knowing who you are, where you come from, or where you're going to." "Where are you going to, by the way?" "Don't answer." "Let me read it in your hand." "Your line of lunar..." "Your line of lunar indicates that you are going home... to visit your mother." "My father." "It's his birthday." "Why, yes." "How did you know?" "It's nothing." "Nothing at all." "No, it's amazing." "Please, go on." "With pleasure." "Your Ring of Solomon tells me... that you are the daughter of a count." "Why, it's true." "And... in the far right-hand corner of your coat of arms... you have a four-leaf clover on a cloth of gold." "Incredible!" "And on the scroll across the center... I can almost see your name." " Almost?" " lt's becoming clearer every minute." "Tell me my name." "It's..." "Yes." "Gavrillac." "Why, it is!" "It's Gavrillac." "My father's the Count de Gavrillac." "You don't look well." "No, I'm sorry, but forgive me. I must go." "No!" "You'll kill yourself!" "Maybe that's the only practical solution." "That's better." "We're almost there now." "Look." "There's my father's house." "We're home." "You must come in and rest a minute." "I know my father will be happy to meet you." "How strange is the human heart." "In life, we never met, my father and I." "No spark of love, no hint of emotion between us." "Yet, I look upon his face in death... and I'm moved to tears." "Poor Andre." "No." "Not poor Andre." "Never poor Andre." "If he finds and loses a father, falls in love with a maid... then discovers the maid is his sister, all in the space of an hour, what of it?" "Andre, what did she say when you told her?" "I told her nothing, nor shall I." "The old man kept his secret secure during his lifetime." "Let him take it with him to heaven." "I'll not betray him." "Won't you see her again?" "I'd like her to know that she's not alone in her grief." "I'd like you to know that, too, Andre." "Here's to you, my hothead... so eager to solve at a blow the dilemma of living." "I doubt if there is a solution, but should it exist... by heaven, we'll find it." " Together." " Together." " You there, innkeeper!" " Coming, sir." "How much longer?" "Milord is getting impatient." "Five minutes, sir." "Possibly ten." "A quarter of an hour at the most." " Tell the idiot to hurry." " Thank you." "Two hours to shoe a horse." "Still not ready." "You know, he's good this Marcus Brutus." "Listen to this:" ""The grip of the aristocratic tyrants is on all things living..." ""crushing them underfoot like grapes in the wine press."" " Treason." " "l warn them." ""The people will make an end of this canker of privilege."" "Fellow has a dangerous gift of eloquence." "It's my men returning." "Tell them to make less noise." "That horse in the yard, the gray, it's yours." " Yes." " Your name is de Valmorin?" "Philippe de Valmorin from Paris... who's been writing and preaching treason all over the city." "His name's Pierre Duval from Limoges on his way to Rouen to inspect a cathedral." " l'm not talking to you." " l'm talking to you." " We're architects from the south." " You're the traitors we're looking for." "No, not him." "He had no part in it." " No part in what?" " No part in anything treasonable." " Come on." "We're late. lf you'll excuse us." " Seize them!" " You're under arrest." " One moment, Chabrillaine." " ls something the matter?" " These are the men, milord." "This man calls himself Marcus Brutus." "His real name is de Valmorin." " His name is Pierre Duval." " Silence!" "Why, Duval... how delightful to see you again after, how long is it?" "Nearly five years." "Forgive me for not recognizing you sooner... but you were only a boy when we last met and now you're a man." "How is your dear mother?" " She's well, sir." " And your father?" "He, too, is well, sir." "Tell me, does he still play Vazique?" "Occasionally, I believe." "Yes, sir." "Be good enough to give him my kindest regards." "Sergeant. I fancy your men have a thirst." "Take them into the pump room and quench it." " Milord, I had no idea." " A case of mistaken identity." "Innkeeper, wine for my friends." "So they mistook you for Marcus Brutus." "Most interesting." "I'm deeply obliged to you for your kind assistance, sir." "I would've done no less for Marcus Brutus himself." "He had the gall to smuggle a copy of his intolerable scribblings... into Her Majesty's bedchamber." "I could hardly permit him to fall into the hands of the law... having promised myself the pleasure of killing him personally." "Pierre, we must go." "We're expected at Rouen by nightfall." "Wait." "The cathedral will not run away." "And the title used by Marcus Brutus:" ""Liberty, Equality, Fraternity."" "Liberty must be rationed among the few with the talent to use it." "There's no such thing as equality." "Most men are born with the gutter and are at home there." "As for fraternity, a de Maynes is nobody's brother." "We stand alone at the head of the table... and if ever our rights are challenged, this is our answer." "I look forward to making it to this Marcus Brutus... when I catch up with him, but I doubt he has the stomach for an encounter." " The man is clearly a coward." " A coward?" "We're leaving." "A spineless upstart, who so far lacks the courage of his own convictions... that he dare not even sign them with his name." " Had he been born..." " A gentleman?" "His race is as old, his blood is as good as yours." "I hardly think so." "His sentiments betray his lack of breeding... the result of his unfortunate mother... forming an attachment for one of her husband's stableboys." " De Maynes, consider I struck that blow." " With pleasure." "But first, shall we step into the garden, Marcus Brutus?" "Or would you prefer to be run through here and now?" "I shall be happy to give you satisfaction." "Tell Father I didn't dishonor his sword after all." "If you've a shred of honor left, you'll stop this fight. lt's murder." "The best swordsman in France against a callow boy?" "A blow was struck." "The blow was provoked, you know it, provoked in cold blood." "It won't be long now." "De Maynes is the ultimate swordsman." "No rival, no peer." "He practices daily with his private instructor, the great Doutreval of Dijon." "You should've learned to use a sword before you turned traitor." "Pick it up." "You shall die with it in your hand." "Yes, you're going to die, but not by a bullet." "You're going to die as he died, by the sword." "You'll be driven back, step by step, until you stand helpless, as he did." "And then I, Andre Moreau, will kill you as you killed him." "I swear it, Philippe." "By all that I hold sacred... I swear you this man's death." "Go after him and take him!" "Sergeant, to horse!" " Hurry, men." "Mount up!" " Take him alive!" "Try to remember him living." "The vigor, the zest of him alive." "It helps." "I know." "Does it?" "Thank you. I'll try." "It may not heal your grief, but it will cushion it." "You speak of grief as if you knew it well." "Only too well." "I want to apologize." "Apologize?" "My behavior in the coach... it must've seemed strange." "It did for a moment." "But just for a moment. lt's forgotten." "You're very understanding and generous." "And you are very kind and thoughtful to come to me now when I need a friend." "I shall never forget it." "I would not have intruded had I not been... so gravely concerned over your future." " My future?" " Yes." "What is to become of you, Aline?" " Forgive me." " lt's quite all right, Andre." "You were saying?" "I was saying, what is to become of a young girl... left defenseless, alone in the world?" "Alone, Andre?" "You have friends?" " One or two, but..." " Who are they?" "Forgive me." "I seek only to protect you from those..." "Undesirables?" "Best to be sure." "Can one ever be sure of anyone?" "People change so quickly." "However, I would say that the Marquis de Maynes... is more reliable than some." "Yes." "Her Majesty's appointed him as my guardian." "I'm afraid I can't discuss it now." "Andre, follow me." "Quickly, this way." "You're young and fair." "May providence guide you and comfort you." "Search the garden, men." "Sir!" "There he goes!" "Come, men!" "This way!" "Welcome, friend." "A hundred thousand welcomes." "And "shh!" to you." "A hundred thousand..." "What's your name?" "is that so?" "Glad to know you." "What's my name?" "Go ahead and ask me." "Who am I?" "You're not interested." "In that case... I shall introduce myself to myself." "Do you know who this is?" "Scaramouche." "Scaramouche, yes, but who is Scaramouche?" "And why does he hide his face behind a mask?" "You don't know?" "Then I'll show you." "Scaramouche is..." "Halt!" "He can't be far." "Search every house." "Where is Scaramouche?" "Find him." "Find that lazy, good-for-nothing Scaramouche." "He can't do this to me." "I'll throw him out." "He's sacked." "There you are." "Come along." "Bring him up quickly." "The audience is waiting." "Where have you been?" "Been drinking again." "Don't lie to me." "I can smell it." "Come on." "You idiot!" "Get back on, you fool!" "Scaramouche." "Drunk again, huh?" "So there you are." " Do you know who this is?" " Scaramouche!" "Scaramouche, yes, but who is Scaramouche?" "And why does he hide his face behind a mask?" "You don't know?" "Then I'll tell you." "Scaramouche is a fool." "A genius." "A ne'er-do-well." "A saint." "Fickle, adoring... false and true together." "Woman's enemy." "And the one thing she can't do without:" "a man!" "Come on." "Kiss me." "You wait..." "There!" "Bravo!" "Bravo!" "Bravissimo!" "What a clown!" " What a cheat." "What a viper!" " Quiet!" "I'm talking." "What an artist!" "What a performer!" "I kiss your hand!" " Thank you." "You'll excuse me." "Pardon me." " Excuse you?" "Knave, wretch, viper, villain!" "Cur, dog, serpent, snake!" "Stay where you are!" "You, open the curtain." "We seek one Andre Moreau, a traitor." "I, sir, am Gaston Binet." "The Gaston Binet of the Gaston Binet Company..." "Shut your mouth." "Who are you?" "Harlequin." "Madame Frying Pan." " Punchinello." " Pierrette." "Pierrot." "Now, what about you?" "Yes, you." " Scaramouche." " Wait." "Take off your mask." "No. I couldn't do that." "I might look into a mirror and perceive my soul... and supposing it was as hideous as yours?" " Take off your mask." " lt can't be done." "But why?" "Columbine knows, but will she tell?" "I wonder." "What was the name of the man you are looking for?" "Andre Moreau." "You know him?" "I know a lot of men." "This Andre Moreau, would you say he looks like Scaramouche?" "The same height and build perhaps?" "The same brown eyes waiting to betray you... and the wicked mouth that laughs at you and lies." "Now, make him take his mask off." "Take it off." "Take it off before I cut it off!" " Sergeant, bring your men!" " Come on, men!" " You, what's down there?" " Unhand me, sir!" "Don't go down there, sir!" "Come back, sir!" "How dare you?" "He didn't get far." "Andre Moreau, I think." "But I could've sworn that..." "We've wasted enough time on this fool." "Sergeant, bring your men." "We'll block every road." "Follow me!" "Here I am, my pet." "Don't be nervous." "You saved my life." "You love me." "Come to my arms." " Sit down!" "I'll send for a doctor." " A doctor?" "Your brain's gone." "Where did you fall, on your head?" " Not exactly, no." " l hope it hurts." "The pain is exquisite, but I suffer it gladly..." " knowing that you love me." " Love you?" "I'd as soon love a boa constrictor." "is that my beloved talking, or do my ears deceive me?" "Listen, you clodpoll... I may have saved your miserable life in a moment of madness... but if you think that means we're back where we started... then maybe this will help you think otherwise!" "Magnificent!" "If it isn't my old friend Doutreval." "Give me a lesson now, Doutreval." "Just one more little lesson." "Remember our bargain." "You teach me to fence, and I teach you to act." "I teach you to fence?" "The way you teach the Marquis, Doutreval." "En garde." "The Marquis?" "What marquis?" "Where did you get this?" "Who gave you this?" "Don't you remember?" " You gave it to me, Doutreval." " l?" "Don't move." "Who are you?" "They call me Moreau." "I seek one Doutreval of Dijon, master swordsman." "What do you want with him?" "His skill for my right arm, his knowledge for my ignorance... his silence for my safety." "I know nothing of the sword." "I need instruction." "There are many who can teach a man the sword." "But no one, they say, like Doutreval of Dijon." "Doutreval serves only the Marquis de Maynes." "They told me otherwise." "What did they tell you?" "That Doutreval would never refuse a friend of Marcus Brutus." "Mummers and friends, great news!" "A certain gentleman of our acquaintance... has decided to remain in Lacrosse... and devote his time to the service of Festus." "Not merely for one night, but indefinitely." "I give you our new Scaramouche." "What a performer!" "So now you're my leading lady, and I'm your leading man." " Shall we rehearse a little?" " Get out." "When you're placid, you are beautiful... but when you are angry, you are superb." "You come one step closer, I'll murder you with this saucepan." " l can't imagine a more glorious death." " l'm warning you, Andre." "I know." "But if I took any notice, how insulting it would be." "If I hadn't come back, I doubt you would have lasted the year out." "Think of this, a sword is like a bird." "If you clench it too tightly, you choke it." "Too lightly, and it flies away." "Now, all actions in fencing... are made only with the fingers, never with the wrist." "Good people of Lacrosse." "Now, let me read you a letter from Paris." ""We, the management of the Prado Ghetta..." ""have the pleasure in offering an extended engagement..." ""to the Gaston Binet traveling troupe of players..." ""featuring the sensational Scaramouche."" "Did anybody see an unpleasant man with a letter?" "A letter inviting Scaramouche to Paris?" "I need hardly say... that Scaramouche stays here in Lacrosse." ""Scaramouche stays here in Lacrosse!"" "How I hate you." " How I love you." " Then take me to Paris." " No!" "We stay here in Lacrosse." " But why?" " Because I like it." " Like it!" "You're mad!" " Yes, that's possible." " lt's a woman!" " No." " lt's a woman." "Do you think I'm a fool?" "Not entirely." "The woman you slip away to in the mornings." "Yes, I've seen you." "Every day before sunrise for nearly six weeks." "I know it's a woman." "There is only one woman... and she's here in this room... at this moment." "You're such a liar." "At times." "A liar... a cheat, and a fraud." "Also, an impostor." "I ought to be burned at the stake for loving you." "Burned to a cinder." "Scaramouche... take me to Paris." "No." "Once more." "One, two, three, four, five, six." "Very good." "Now, this time faster." "Ready?" "Faster." "Very good." "You remember what I said when we started, about the little bird?" "Hold it too tightly, you choke it." "Too lightly, it will fly away." "Once again." "Doutreval, how long have you been teaching the traitor, Andre, to fence?" "He never heard of Andre Moreau." "The fool imagines he's been instructing Montgomery of Lorraine... an artillery artisan." "Take your money, idiot." "Ask more questions next time." "Actually, you've done me a great service." "Hand him his sword, Doutreval." "Get out." "And now, Moreau... for your final lesson." "My compliments." "You've learned a few tricks since our last meeting." "You'd at least be a match for our friend, Marcus, if he were still with us." "You might even defeat him." "But Noel de Maynes is perhaps another matter." "It takes time to make a swordsman." "Time and patience and practice." "One can't acquire overnight what others have learned... by years of endeavor." "For instance, the doublé one, two, three." "The feint doublée." "The feint of disengagement coupée." "The feint of disengagement souplée." "And..." "Andre!" "Aline." "Take him." "Enough." "Get out." " You know this Andre Moreau?" " Yes." " He's a friend." " "Friend" is a broad term." "I like him." "I met him only casually, but I like him." " You like him." " Very much." "He gave me hope and courage once, when I needed it very badly." "I have never forgotten it." "And I never intend to." "You speak of him with a warmth I have not heard in your voice... since you left your father's house." "I'm glad it's so evident." "Believe me, it does less than justice to my feelings for Andre." "Your feelings for..." "Aline, may I remind you of your position." "May I remind you of a young girl left defenseless, alone in the world... by her father's death with no friend to turn to." "I was only 5 miles away." "Andre was there, and what's more, at the risk of his life." "Did I not send for you at once, have you brought here to my house?" "Of your own free will?" "Or by command of the Queen?" " My dear child..." " l am not a child." "Nor am I a chattel." "I'm a woman who wants to be loved for her own sake or not at all." "Whatever you do for me, Noel, you do under orders." "My dear, all you say was true in the beginning." "I did interest myself in you at first only dutifully." "How could I know that Her Majesty had chosen your character and courage... for a man to respect and admire?" "Believe me, Aline..." "Her Majesty may have commanded my interests then... but now, after, how long is it?" "Only six short weeks." "Even she could not command me to forget you." "You know your way from here." "Good luck, Moreau." "Doutreval, I owe you my warmest thanks." "I owe much more to Montgomery of Lorraine, an artillery officer." "Yeah. I'm still only a beginner compared with de Maynes." "No, not a beginner, just not a champion..." " yet." " Nor will I ever be... now that I can no longer be taught by the man who taught my enemy." "If you forget your passion while you're fencing, you'd improve more rapidly." "My old instructor, Perigore himself, used to say:" ""The head." "Fight with the head." "Forget the heart."" "Your old instructor didn't realize..." "Your old instructor, is he still alive?" "Of course he's still alive." "Master of all swordsmen." "I can no longer be taught by the man who taught my enemy." "So, what is more fitting in a mad world... than to be taught by the man who taught the man who taught my enemy?" "Where does he live?" "What is his name again, this master of all swordsmen?" "Perigore of Paris." "Come on out." "Come out before I drag you out by your ears!" "So it was a woman!" "Her name is Gavrillac, Aline de Gavrillac!" "Don't lie your way out of it!" "Put me down!" "I'm glad you followed me." "It forces me to tell you the truth." "You're in love with that girl." "I couldn't love Aline if she was the last woman on earth." "What were you up to, playing hide-and-seek?" "Not exactly. I was having a fencing lesson." " Liar!" " No, not this time." "For once, you've no cause to be jealous." " Prove it." " l will." " Your dearest wish." "What is it?" " The Prado Theater, Paris." "We leave for Paris today." "You, I, and the whole company." "No." "Too sudden a switch." "Some woman is behind it." " No woman." "A man." " On your word as a fraud and a fake." " As a fiend incarnate." " The name of the man?" "They call him Perigore of Paris." "Paris." "Where shall we dine tonight?" "The Café Jomier for some of those wonderful frog legs." "And afterwards?" "What do you think?" " Paul, would you throw me my petticoat?" " l should be delighted." "Thank you." "I said throw it." "My dear, after coming here night after night for a month... am I not like your uncle?" " Do you feel like my uncle?" " No." " Lenore is dining with me tonight." " l'm sorry..." "Since this is my first visit, I have first call on the lady." " Columbine, did you hear that?" " Yes." " l, for a month..." " Gentlemen." "Charming." "Thank you. I'm so sorry, but I already have another engagement." "Five minutes, my pet." " Scaramouche." " Good evening." " So you're the lucky man." " invariably, my friend." " You remember me?" " l shall never forget you." "What's the secret of your success with the ladies?" "His mask." "They don't know how hideous he looks without it, as I do." "Lenore, could you..." "Pardon me." " Your admirers are very fickle." " Not I." "Indeed." "You've come all the way to Paris just to see Lenore." "I'd gladly go farther than that, but she wasn't the reason." "No?" "Then what was it?" "I'm jealous." "A wedding." "The Marquis de Maynes takes a bride the first week in July." "Charming girl." "His ward." "We're here to prepare for the nuptials." "So, de Maynes is in Paris." "Yes, the happy couple arrived here together this morning." "Au revoir, Columbine." "Some other evening perhaps." "Scaramouche, my compliments." "I shall send all Paris to see you." "On second thought... I'm not in the mood for frog legs." "We'll go to Emile's and have oysters." "My cloak." "I'll get Binet to take you home." " You know I can't dine with you now." " You hate him for her sake." "That's why you hate him, because of her!" "No, not because of her." "Enough." "You seem to have forgotten everything I taught you." "This is no lesson." "You make it a street fight." "He could have run you through a dozen times." " What time is it?" " 6:00." "We still got 30 minutes." "Come on." "The head." "Fight with the head." "Forget the heart." "That's enough for today." "Go home." "Thank you." "You have a demon in you, this fine day." "Lose it or you'll not live to see another." "Yes, you're right." "Thank you, Perigore." "Thanks for everything." "Pay me tomorrow." "Well?" "He may be our man." " What are you doing here?" " Don't say anything." "I won't shout, and I won't throw things." "Forgive me coming here... but you've just given me the worst night of my life." " l thought you were dead." " Not yet." "Don't joke about it." "I'm sorry." "Don't joke about it, please." "It's no joke to me." "What happened last night?" "I went to de Maynes." "The lord was in bed and the house well guarded by servants." " Come home now." " No." "Please, Andre." "You never really knew Philippe de Valmorin... did you, Lenore?" "He was like my younger brother." "I watched him grow up, and I watched him die." "Murdered." "If you'd seen that... you'd understand why for the last months I've had but one desire:" "De Maynes' death." "An hour from now, he rides in le bois alone." "God willing, that desire will be fulfilled this morning." "I don't like you this way, Andre." "I don't like you at all." "I don't like myself." "I'd like you to wish me luck." "You fool!" "You'll go to your death." "Then pray for me." "Quiet." "Who are you?" "What do you mean by sending me a note with "Andre" on it?" "Why should I be interested in Andre?" "You must be or you wouldn't have seen me." "I know a dozen Andres:" "Andre Lebourge, Andre Clou, Andre Bercier." "Andre Moreau." "Andre Moreau?" "Who is Andre Moreau?" "If you don't know, then you won't care if he's dead." "Dead?" "No!" " That's better." " ls he?" "No." "He's alive now, but he won't be in half an hour." "He's waiting in the bois to fight your fiancé." "Andre will be cut to pieces." " Why do you come to me?" " Why?" "You love him." "You do, don't you?" "Yes." "Yes, I love him." "He's no use to either of us dead." "Quickly." "This way." "Andre, whenever we meet, you're armed to the teeth." "I was expecting de Maynes." "Where is he?" "Not here. I assure you there's no one here but me, and I'm really quite harmless." " They told me he rides here at 7:00." " Not always. ln Paris he likes to sleep late." " Shall we ride on a little together?" " No." "We'll ride nowhere." " You don't care to accompany me?" " l'm waiting for de Maynes." "He won't come." "The Marquis de Maynes is not riding this morning." "Do you hear me?" "If he weren't riding this morning, you wouldn't be here." "Do you love him very much?" "You know I've never loved anyone but you from the moment we met... just as you have never loved anyone but me from that moment." " l do not love you, Aline." " Then you love someone else." "Tell me you love someone else, and I'll believe you." " l love no one. I have no time for loving." " You love me." " l do not." " l think you do." "You told me in the coach." "Remember?" " l've said as much to a dozen women." " You didn't love any of them?" "I fall in love constantly, indiscriminately." "The effect is the same as if I never fell in love." "I don't know what you said to the others." "I only know that when you spoke to me... you loved me." "Aline, listen to me." "We met and became friends." "I make friends easily." "That means nothing at all." "There is not, and there never could be, anything between us." "Never." "Do you understand?" "Ride away and forget that you ever met Andre Moreau." "He's already forgotten that he ever met Aline de Gavrillac." "Why do you lie to me, Andre?" "Why don't you tell me what you feel?" "Never mind." "You feel it, and that's all that matters." "And so do I." "I love you." "No matter what you may say or do, whatever may happen to either of us... I shall go on loving you always." "Will you remember that?" "Always." " Are you hurt?" " No." "I came to ride with you." "And then suddenly..." "Come." "Let's ride." "What, no fear after such a narrow escape?" "I like that." "But enough for today." "Come, my dear. I'll take you home." "He didn't come." "You've had no breakfast or lunch." "is there any food in this house?" "Not for me. I'm not hungry." "Andre Moreau, colleague of the late Philippe de Valmorin... wanted for treason against the Crown of France?" " Who let you in?" " No one. I used discretion and the window." "I am unarmed." " Go on your business, or..." " Or you'll run me deftly through." "I don't doubt it." "You have a rare talent with the sword." " Come on, your name, your business." " Dubuque." "My profession?" "A doctor." "By force of circumstance, a deputy of the newly created National Assembly." "Come to the point." "The newly elected people's representatives... are being methodically reduced by the aristocrats." "Only yesterday, Deputy Chambris, one of our best men... was murdered in a duel, so called." "These things happen." "We want to appoint a new delegate to succeed Chambris." "We need a young man." "As quick with his sword as his tongue." "Well?" "I have no interest in politics, whatsoever." "Yet you were a friend of Marcus Brutus." "In spite of his fancies, not because of them." "You believe in liberty." "You know it's being strangled." "I also believe in laughter, and I know the world is mad." "Good day, sir." "So, the de Crévy and the de Maynes go unopposed." " A pity." " What was that?" "What was what?" "Those names that you said." "De Crévy and... de Maynes?" " Noel de Maynes?" " Yes." "You mean that he sits in the assembly?" "Naturally." "He's a peer of the realm." " You said you weren't hungry..." " Who said he wasn't hungry?" "I've never been hungrier in my life!" "Allow me to present... my good friend Dubuque... by profession a doctor, by force of circumstance a deputy." "On second thought, I realize that I am very much interested in politics... and I would be proud to serve the people of France in their hour of need." "Deputy Designate Moreau of the National Assembly, if you please." "Deputy Dubuque, would you join me in a meal?" "The assembly will come to order!" "Deputy du Rouge, representing the Soissons district." "Present." "Deputy Chambris, from the Saint-Denis district of the city of Paris." "Mr. President." "The deputy from the Saint-Denis district... will be absent from this assembly." "Permanently." "Mr. President." "May I introduce the new deputy from Saint-Denis?" "Why, yes." "This man is a traitor!" "Andre Moreau!" " Arrest him!" "I demand his arrest!" " No!" "Excuse me, but has not every member of this assembly... been granted the privilege of immunity from arrest?" "Yes." "That is true." "Are his credentials in order?" "Quite in order." "You may take your seat." "You may take your seat, Deputy Moreau." "With the President's permission, I now would like to address a few remarks... to a notorious swordsman on the bench's opposite." "One who in his arrogance and pride... did not scruple to murder a son of France... whose only crime was that he loved liberty." "De Maynes, where are you?" "The Marquis de Maynes is absent from the assembly... having been ordered by Her Majesty the Queen to inspect the orphanage... for young ladies of noble birth at Saint-Germain-en-Laye." "Deputy Moreau, you'll take your seat." "The assembly will continue the roll call." "You, Moreau." "My name is du Rouge." "I'm the deputy from Soissons." "How do you do?" "Do you hear me?" "I dislike your face." " l not only hear you, I agree with you." " Wait." "Your cheeks are pale." "They need more color." "That's better." "Moreau, your honor demands satisfaction." " lt does?" " Emphatically." "Behind the cathedral." "At 6:00?" "Deputy Cavalier, representing the Vendôme district?" "Present." "Deputy Vignon from the Louvre district of the city of Paris?" "Deputy du Rouge, representing the Soissons district?" "Moreau!" "Mr. President, the deputy from Soissons... will be absent from this assembly permanently." "And now, perhaps, I may get some response... from that high-and-mighty lord... who makes his blade a tool for butchery!" "De Maynes!" "Stand up!" "The Marquis de Maynes is absent from the assembly... having been ordered by Her Majesty the Queen... to report upon the waterworks at Versailles." "Waterworks." "My name is De Crillons from Château Thierry." "Your face revolts me." " Your eyes are pig's eyes, and your ears..." " All right." "Behind the cathedral at 6:00." "Deputy de Nicolay, in representing the Moulin district?" "Present." "Deputy De Crillons, representing the Château Thierry district?" "Mr. President, the deputy from Château Thierry... will be absent from the assembly for three months, so the doctor said." "Now may I ask, what pressing assignment... robs us of the presence of the Marquis de Maynes today?" "He is absent from the assembly having been ordered by Her Majesty the Queen... to survey the royal partridge preserves at Trianon." "Partridge preserves." "My friend Chabrillaine. I know, my face." "It reminds you of a bos taurus horrendus." " What's that?" " An Ethiopian ox." "Behind the cathedral at 6:00." "Moreau?" "This morning. I'm lucky to be alive." " Where can I find him?" " The assembly adjourned for a month... but I know where he lives." "I thought you'd be interested." "Tomorrow?" "Tonight. I shall sleep much better when I know Moreau is dead." "Noel?" "Well?" " You don't like it." " But I do, very much." "No, you don't." "And I had it made especially for tonight." " Tonight?" " Yes." "Where shall we go?" "I thought perhaps Souchet's, and then the opera." " My dear, I'm afraid tonight is impossible." " lmpossible?" "But you promised." ""The first night I return, we go out," you said." "Don't you remember?" "Not altogether. I'm sorry, but something has come up." "No." "First an orphanage, then a waterworks... then some ridiculous peacocks..." " Partridges." " Now something comes up." " l don't believe it." " l assure you it's absolutely true." "There's a woman behind it, that's what there is." " Maybe two women." " Aline, this is absurd." "Just when we were going to be married." "Noel, how could you?" "Aline." "Please?" "If I promised, I promised." "What are they playing tonight at the opera?" " Orpheus and Eurydice." " l went last night." "Wretched performance." "Very depressing." "Now, if you want a gay evening... there's only one answer, the Ambigüe Theater." "The Ambigüe?" "What are they playing there?" "Wait till you see Scaramouche." "You'll love him." "Hideous, but hilarious." "You should see him without the mask." "The most magnificently ugly fellow I've ever set eyes on." "Ladies and gentlemen, we are singularly honored tonight." "We have with us that most chivalrous gentleman..." "Noel, Marquis de Maynes." "Noel, I feel faint." "Would you take me home, please?" "Going so soon, my lord?" "I assure you, the best is yet to come." "You may turn your back on Scaramouche, my lord... but surely you will not run away from..." "Andre Moreau." "Scaramouche, you have given your last performance." "Why don't you come and take it?" "It's only I, Andre." "Are all things clear to souls in paradise?" "If so..." "God grant the boy understands my failure... and forgives it." " l cannot." " You will." "Never!" "He stood there waiting... neither asking or expecting mercy." "I could not do it." "I looked into his eyes..." "Why?" "Before all the saints in heaven, why?" "When you were a boy at home... how many, many times did you ask us:" ""Who am I?" "And how did I come to live..." ""in the house of the de Valmorins?" ""And if you are not my father..." ""tell me, who is?"" "I learned the answer months ago." "My father was Armand de Gavrillac." "No." "Armand de Gavrillac pretended to be your father." "Actually, he was covering an indiscretion of his closest friend... who was your real father." "Then who was my father?" "You are the natural son of the late Marquis de Maynes." "De Maynes, the father of Noel de Maynes... the man whose life you could not take." "You couldn't kill your own brother." "My brother, Noel!" "My tender, loving..." "Then she is not..." "Not your sister." " Aline is not..." " No." "So now you can feel about her the way she feels about you." "Yes, I know she loves you." "Not the way I did, but then she's not like me." "She doesn't listen to other people's conversations." "And she's the marrying kind... which somehow I don't seem to be." "I like the Gavrillac girl." "She's a lady." "But never mind. I like her." "Be nice to her, Scaramouche." "I said be nice to her, you clod, not to me." "Go on, get out of here." "Beautiful." "English"

"What in the hell did you tell her that for?" "We don't even know these damn people." "That boy is hungry." "We can spare one box." "It's called operational security." "How long do you think this stuff is gonna last if you keep running your damn mouth off to everybody we meet?" "I'm sorry." "I wasn't thinking." "You getting anything?" " There's nothing." " Big surprise there." "No, I mean there's nothing." "Emergency broadcast system stopped, and that recording about the refugee center." "It's all gone." "I'm gonna go up the road, see what I can see." "I'll come with you." "Ed must have forgot to pack those MREs." " I found these in my purse." " It's all right." "Listen, do you mind keeping an eye on Carl for a minute?" "No." "Shane and I are gonna go scout up ahead a little bit and see if we can find someone that knows what's going on." " I want to come with you." " Huh-uh." "Huh-uh." "Hey, we'll be back before you know it." "Okay, little man, huh?" "Lori:" "Why would they stop broadcasting about the refugee center?"

"I wouldn't mind cooking in a real kitchen again." "Maybe we all pitch in and cook dinner for Hershel and his family tonight." "Kind of looking for things to keep my mind occupied." "After everything they've done for us, seems like the least we could do." "You mind extending the invitation?" "Would just feel more right coming from you." "How so?" "You're Rick's wife." "It sort of makes you our unofficial first lady." "Morning, guys." "Let's get going." "We've got a lot of ground to cover." "All right, everyone's getting new search grids today." "If she made it as far as the farmhouse Daryl found, she might have gone further east than we've been so far." "I'd like to help." "I know the area pretty well and stuff." "Hershel's okay with this?" "Yeah yeah." "He said I should ask you." "All right then." "Thanks." "Nothing about what Daryl found screams Sophia to me." "Anyone could have been holed up in that farmhouse." "Anybody includes her, right?" "Whoever slept in that cupboard was no bigger than yay-high." " It's a good lead." " Maybe we'll pick up her trail again." "No maybe about it." "I'm gonna borrow a horse, head up to this ridge right here, take a bird's-eye view of the whole grid." " If she's up there, I'll spot her." " Good idea." "Maybe you'll see your chupacabra up there too." " Chupacabra?" " You never heard this?" "Our first night in camp, Daryl tells us that the whole thing reminds him of a time when he went squirrel hunting and he saw a chupacabra." " ( Laughs )" " What are you braying at, jackass?" "You believe in a blood-sucking dog?" "Do you believe dead people walking around?" "Hey hey." "Ever fire one before?" "Well, if I'm going out, I want one." "Yeah, and people in hell want slurpees."

"You remember the name of that waitress at the Dairy Queen when we were in high school?" "I know you, Shane, well enough to know that there is only one sure-fire way of engaging you in a conversation, and that is to start asking you about girls you did in high school." "I don't want to, but I'll willing to do it if that's what it takes." "Maryanne." "I told you about her?" "In excruciating detail." "Excruciating, my ass." "You used to live for those details back in the day." " I was impressionable." " ( Shane laughs )" "And I may have been living vicariously through you." "Why wouldn't you, with my impressive list of accomplishments?" "I was an artist in his prime." " A protege." " You mean prodigy." "Maybe."

" The girls volleyball coach?" "Wasn't she married?" " C'mon." "You know what I just remembered?" "Why I never ask you about this stuff." "Why don't we talk about your high school love life then, huh?" "Well, that's a short conversation." " It may even already be over." " That right?" "There was Holly, right?" " Nope, that was me too." " ( Laughs )" "Then there was Sheila." "That's the one you lied to me about." "I never lied about Sheila." "I just got mixed up about what the bases meant." "Just so you know, a home run, that usually means a sexual act." " That's intercourse." " Yeah, I realize that now." "I think what you did was more like a ground rule double or something." "I'm aware of the judge's ruling." "Shouldn't be talking about this stuff." "That life, it's gone and everyone in it." "Sheila." "Maryanne." "Mrs. Kelly." "It's like we're old folk." "All the people in our stories are all dead." " We can't just forget them." " The hell we can't." "It's hard enough accepting what's happened without digging up the past." "I'll tell you what it is." "It's nostalgia." "It's like a drug." "Keeps you from seeing things the way they are." "That's a danger." "You got people depending on you." "You think I don't know that?" "I don't know." "What are we doing?" "You got every able body at your disposal out scourging these woods for a little girl we both know is likely dead." "You think we should abandon the search?" "It's not my call, is it?" "I'm asking." "I'm asking." "Survival, Rick." "It means making hard decisions." "But you've got this knack." "You spread us thinner and thinner." "I'm trying to save lives here and you're out saving cats from trees." "Is that what you think Sophia is, a cat in a tree?" "Don't do that, man." "Don't twist my words." "How many times we get called up to look for a missing child, man?" "You got 72 hours." "72 hours, and after that you're looking for a body." "And that was before." "I mean you honestly think we're just gonna find Sophia alive?" "Are you that sure we won't?" " We being completely honest?" " I'm counting on you to be." "It's math, man."

"Your own son almost died." "Otis, he paid that bill." "What the hell are we still doing this for?" "I had her in my hand, Shane." "She looked in my eyes and trusted me." "I failed her."

"If it was Carl, yes I'd want to know one way or another." "Shane says my good intentions are making us weaker, that I can't make the hard decisions for the good of the group." "They're all hard decisions." "But maybe I'm holding on to a way of thinking that doesn't make sense anymore." "He says it's math, basic survival..." "How much fuel, how much food, how much ammo."

"They lost a little girl." "So you got a thing for little girls now?" "Shut up." "'Cause I noticed you ain't out looking for old Merle no more." "Tried like hell to find you, bro." "Like hell you did." "You split, man." "Lit out first chance you got." "You lit out." "All you had to do was wait." "We went back for you." "Rick and I, we did right by you." "This the same Rick that cuffed me to the rooftop in the first place?" "Forced me to cut off my own hand?" "This him we're talking about here?" "You his bitch now?" "I ain't nobody's bitch." "You're a joke is what you are, playing errand boy to a bunch of pansy-asses, niggers and democrats." "( Chuckles ) You're nothing but a freak to them." "Redneck trash." "That's all you are." "They're laughing at you behind your back." "You know that, don't you?" "I got a little news for you, son." "One day they gonna scrape you off their heels like you was dogshit." "Hey." "They ain't your kin, your blood." "Hell, you had any damn nuts in that sack of yours, you'd got back there and shoot your pal Rick in the face for me." "Now you listen to me." "Ain't nobody ever gonna care about you except me, little brother." "Nobody ever will." "Come on, get up on your feet before I have to kick your teeth in." "Let's go."

" I'm on your side." " Yeah?" "Since when?" "Hell, since the day you were born, baby brother." "Somebody had to look after your worthless ass." "You never took care of me." "You talk a big game but you was never there." "Hell, you ain't here now." "Guess some things never change." "Well, I'll tell you what..." "I'm as real as your chupacabra." "I know what I saw." "And I'm sure them m-shrooms you ate had nothing to do with it, right?" "You'd best shut the hell up." "Or what?" "You're gonna come up here and shut my mouth for me?" "Well, come on and do it then, if you think you're man enough." "Hey, kick off them damn high heels and climb, son." "( Laughing )" "You know what?" "If I were you I'd take a pause for the cause, brother." "'Cause I just don't think you're gonna make it to the top." "Come on." "Come on, little brother." "Grab your friend Rick's hand." "( Grunting )" "( Groaning )" "( Panting )" "Yeah, you'd better run." "( Plates clinking )" "Lori:" "Oh yeah?" "I never thought I'd be so happy to see a potato." "I'm just glad we're not roasting squirrels over a fire in the woods." "Thank you, Patricia, so much for letting us into your house." "What's this?" "Lori and Carol are cooking dinner for us all tonight." "That's the first I've heard of it." "I didn't think it was that big a deal." "They want to thank us for helping them." "We need to be setting clear boundaries with these people." "They're getting a little too comfortable." "It's just dinner." "What's going on with you and the Asian boy?" "Glenn." "He's a friend." "I'd rather he wasn't.." "Bad enough I have to chase Beth and Jimmy around." "Well, you don't have to chase me around." " I'm not 16" " I know you're not." "That's why I'm counting on you to be the mature one." "You know how I feel." "Please, don't make things harder than they need to be." "I'm a little old for us to be having this conversation." "Don't get close to them." "They're not going to be around forever." "What's with the Annie Oakley routine?" "I don't want to wash clothes anymore, Dale." "I want to help keep the camp safe." "Is that all right with you?" "Sorry." "Just returning your book." "Oh no, I'm sorry." "If I had known the world was ending," "I'd have brought better books." "Dale, you think Andrea's on her period?" "I'm only asking 'cause it's like all the women are acting really weird." "And I read somewhere that when women spend a lot of time together, their cycles line up and they all get super crazy hormonal at the same time." "I'm gonna advise you to keep that theory to yourself." " Yeah." " Who else is acting weird?" " Maggie." " Ah, Maggie." "She started off being mean to me." "Then she wanted to have sex with me." "And now she's being mean to me again." "And I don't even want to know what's going on with Lori." "What's going on with Lori?" "Nothing." "I don't know." "All right, let's take this back a step." "How do you know that Maggie wanted to have sex with you?" "Oh, son, you didn't." "Did it ever occur to you how her father might feel about this?" "She's 22." "And he is our host." "He doesn't know." "Well, see that it stays that way." "Jesus, Glenn, what were you thinking?" "I was thinking that I might be dead tomorrow." "Thanks for the book." "You're right, it sucks." "Walker." "Walker!" "Just the one?" "I bet I can nail it from here." "Rick:" "No no, Andrea." "Putthegundown." "You'd best let us handle this." "Shane, hold up." "Hershel wants to deal with walkers." "What for, man?" "We got it covered." "( Rifle clicks )" "( Shane grunting )" " Andrea, don't." " Back off, Dale." "Glenn:" "Is that Daryl?" "That's the third time you've pointed that thing at my head." "You gonna pull the trigger or what?" " ( Gunshot )" " No!" "No!" "No!" "Rick!" "What on earth's going on out here?" " I was kidding." " Come on." "Oh my God." "Oh my God, is he dead?" "Unconscious." "You just grazed him." "But look at him." "What the hell happened?" "He's wearing ears." "Let's keep that to ourselves." "Guys, isn't this Sophia's?" "I found it washed up on the creek bed right there." "She must have dropped it crossing there somewhere." "Cuts the grid almost in half." " Yeah, you're welcome." " How's he looking?" "I had no idea we'd be going through the antibiotics so quickly." "Any idea what happened to my horse?" "Yeah, the one who almost killed me?" "If it's smart, it left the country." "We call that one Nelly, as in Nervous Nelly." "I could have told you she'd throw you if you'd bothered to ask." "It's a wonder you people have survived this long." "He'll be all right." "I hate to say it, but I'm with Hershel on this one." "Can't keep going out there, not after this." "You'd quit now?" "Daryl just risked his life to bring back the first hard evidence we've had." "That is one way to look at it." "The way I see it, Daryl almost died today for a doll." "Yeah, I know how you see it." "I'm not out to be a hard case." "Just being realistic." "( Huffs )" "He's just got to start making the tough calls." "You know I'm right." "I may not agree with all of his choices, but I respect him." "I know yours and mine and your way isn't harder." "It's the easiest thing in the world to cut our losses and to not help." "You keep telling yourself you're making the tough calls." "You're really just trying... the only thing I care about now in this world is you and Carl." "So I apologize if I appear to be insensitive to the needs of others, but you see" "I'll do whatever it takes to keep the two of you safe." "Even abandoning a lost child?" " Really?" " Yeah." "My son and I are not your problem anymore, or your excuse." " How's he doing?" " He'll be fine." "What about you?" "I shot Daryl." "Don't be too hard on yourself." "We've all wanted to shoot Daryl." "( Lori sobbing )" "( Whispers ) Baby, what do I do?" "( Knocks )" "Dinner's ready." "You coming?" "Mm-hmm." " You need anything?" " Huh-uh, I'll be right there." "Does anybody know how to play guitar?" "Dale found a cool one." "Somebody's got to know how to play." "Otis did." "Yes, and he was very good too." "How are you feeling?" "As good as I look." "I brought you some dinner." "You must be starving." "Watch out, I got stitches." "You need to know something." "You did more for my little girl today than her own daddy ever did in his whole life." "I didn't do anything Rick or Shane wouldn't have done." "I know." "You're every bit as good as them." "Every bit." "( Sniffs )" "( Growling, moaning )" "You weren't supposed to see this."

"Only the extraction from the plant can block the mutations." "But nothing can reverse the process." "Now I know what society does with the sick." "They never come back down."

"It wasn't to cure them!" "They don't want the energy from the plant... but the energy from people!" "What was that?" "Did you hear?" "I'm sorry." "No." "Not me." "It can't be."

"We're ready to go down, sir." "Open up." "You have helped us preserve the most important thing." "Maintaining the secret."

"To bring them to understand we must have the courage to impose a solution on these faraway populations, from lands of frustration."

"The point is, carrying that torch for me, will be like scoring my fifth touchdown." "Griff, there is a rumor that's got me tingling all over." "I hear you're carrying the Olympic torch." "Yes, I am." "Excuse me, oh, back-stabber X." "What do you mean you're carrying the torch?" "Al, look at her." "What would you do?" "Girls like that are a dime a dozen." "There's my dime." "Bring me a dozen." " What about friendship?" " What about my dime?" "Al, look." "We're still going to Atlanta." "Besides, you're the only one who gives a damn about that stupid torch."

"Once I had that torch in my hand, I would have just kept on running." " Daddy, you wanna know what I think?" " Oh, this should be good." "Now, like a great Eastern religion says it's all about striking a balance between the ping and the pong." "Go get my noose, boy." " I'll get two." " Now, Dad, listen." "Your misery, or the ping is what makes other people happy, or pong." "Pumpkin, Daddy's feeling a little ping right now." "Well, good." "That means that somebody somewhere must be really pong." "Maybe it's me." "She's been eating Wite-Out again, hasn't she?" "Dad, Griff's your friend." "Why can't you be happy for him?" "When was the last time you saw me happy for anyone, about anything?" "Dad, Griff is a shoe salesman, all right?" "He makes no money." "He drives a sardine can on wheels and he paints his ankles so we'll think he can afford socks." "The guy's got no life." "But, son, that's my life." "Then you can understand why he deserves a little bit of happiness." "Pumpkin, maybe you're right." "Maybe I haven't been such a good friend." "Or a father." "But maybe there's still something I can do to make up for it." "Dad, wanna go outside and throw the ball a little bit?" "Not you."

"I prefer to think of myself as "pound for pound the best boxer in the world" Roy Jones Jr." "Well, I prefer to think of myself as "high school football star" Al Bundy." "But unlike you, I got married." "Now my life is all screwed up." "Well, enough about you." "Is Griff here?" "No, Griff's stretching, getting ready for his big run." "I'm his best friend, you know." "And I'm very happy for him." "Well, you should be." "I mean, after all, he is America's hero." "Give me that." "America's hero?" "I'm the one who" "I'm the one who's his best friend and I'm very, very happy for him." "Get your official "Go Griff" T-shirts here." "Here you go." "Hey." "Thank you." "Here you go." "There you go."

"Aren't you Bruce Jenner?" "Can I have your autograph, please?" "Can I have your autograph, please?" "I'm Al Bundy." "Did you come because you got my letter?" "Yeah, right." "I'm not here to see you." "I'm here to see Griff." "But why?" "You're a Super Bowl hero." "Even though that bum O'Donnell threw those two passes right to you." "Hey, I know that and you know that, but Disneyland and the Raiders don't." "And you know, I'd give it all up to be in Griff's shoes today." "Why?" "He's just a divorced shoe salesman who's carrying a flaming stick through a mall full of fat women." "But I am his best friend and I'm very happy for him." "You ought to be." "Hey, Larry, you wanna buy one of these limited-edition, autographed..." " ..."Go Griff" T-shirts?" " Sure." "I don't have any cash on me right now, but hey, how about a Super Bowl ring?" "Sure." "Wow, I'll always treasure this." "Me too." "I'll never let it go." "Anyone wanna buy a Super Bowl ring?" " Excuse me, pal." " Hey, you're Flint Guccione publisher of Big 'Uns magazine." "Right you are." "Who would have thought an Instamatic, drunken family reunion and 50 bucks could start an empire?" "Don't tell me you came to shake Griff's hand." "I did that yesterday when I presented him with his lifetime key to the Big 'Uns brothel." "And today we're gonna make Griff Big 'Uns Man Of The Year." "Oh, Al, you're the man of the year." "No." "You're the man of the century." "You're twice the man Griff is." "That's why I cloned myself." "Hey, everybody, it's Griff." "Hey, he's got the torch." "Those were my answers." "That should be my torch." "I will be the flaming one." "This is Miranda Veracruz de la Jolla Cardenal live at the New Market Mall where national hero, Griff X has just run by with the Olympic torch." "Wait a minute." "Someone is chasing Griff." "It appears to be local hooligan Al Bundy." "Oh, no." "He has knocked the torch from Griff's hand and sent it hurtling into the mall fountain." "For the first time in 3000 years the Olympic flame has been extinguished." "The torch must now be relit in Athens and run around the world once more." "The Summer Olympics have been postponed indefinitely." "Thanks again to now international hooligan Al Bundy." "I guess you can look on the bright side, Dad." "From now on, when people think of Olympic shame they'll think of Al Bundy first and then Tonya Harding." "Daddy, do you think it's safe to go out for food now?" "Oh, pumpkin, I wouldn't worry about it." "You know, when it comes to scandals, Americans have short memories."

"I just think landing in a wild-dragon nesting ground is really going to freak Meatlug out." "Really?" "Well, how does she feel about flaming arrows and catapults?" "Uh, yeah, she really doesn't like those either." " Oh, you don't say." " Tell you what, Fishlegs... when we get there, you just lay back and let real dragons do the work." "Yeah, you really have no idea what a swarm of angry wild dragons are capable of." " You know what would be awesome?" " Flaming arrows, catapults..." " And wild dragons." " And wild dragons." "That makes three of you." "Seems pretty straightforward to me." "It's anything but straightforward, Alvin." "If there's one thing I've learned, it's that people will say anything to keep themselves alive." " Isn't that right, Savage?" " Right, as usual, Alvin." "See?" "Now, you say I need you to interpret what's in this book, to use it properly." " I say it's nothing but a ploy." " Fine." "Give it a try." "You heard the girl." "Uh, all right." "Seems easy enough." "Uh, what kind of dragon is this?" "It's a Deadly Nadder." "You need the page number?" "Uh, nope, nope, nope." "Right here." ""Deadly Nadder..." ""likes to preen, very sure of itself, constant grooming."" "Hmm, all right, we'll appeal to its vanity." "Uh, well, you, uh, certainly are a lovely girl." "Or are you a handsome boy?" "Who can tell?" "Like I said, the book can only get you so far, Alvin." "You see this, Fishlegs?" "You got yourself all worked up for nothing." "Um, you were saying?" "Guys, remember, stick to the plan, no matter how crazy it gets." "Crazy?" "I love crazy." "Bring it!" "Wait." "What's the plan again?" "Now!" "Fire!" " Sweet!" " Yes!" "We did it!" "Stupid dragons." "Would you just let go of the fish?" "I'll catch you!" "No!" "That's my lunch!" "Now!" " What is it?" " The book..." "I need it." "Well, I didn't memorize it!" "Please be a Nadder." "Please be a Nadder." "Please be a Nadder." "Please be a Nadder." "Please be a Nadder." "Please be a Nadder." "Oh, great." "Well?" "I'm waiting." "All right, big boy, it's you and me." "Okay, check that off the list." "How about the direct approach?" "Our little Heather is feistier than I remember." "This isn't anything my soldiers haven't already tried." " You'll need to do better!" " Oh!" "The one time I wish Snotlout was here." "Snotlout..." "Well, that's the end of that." "Wait." "Look." "These things don't budge!" "What?" "I told you she knew what she was doing." "Yes, you certainly did." "What do you say we get out of here?" "Going somewhere, Heather?" "As far away from this place as possible!" "Without your parents?" "Parents?" "She was telling the truth?" "I might see my way clear to trading 'em for that book." "Or you can leave, and I'll kill 'em." "Cuckoo!" "Cuckoo!" "What are you doing?" "Cuckoo!" "Cuckoo!" "Duh!" "That's our signal." "Guys, we don't give the signal this time." "Astrid does." "We talked about this." "Like any of this matters anyway?"

"Sorry, boy." "Heather, Heather, Heather." "Or are you?" " There's Astrid." " Who's that with her?" "I don't know." "But that's the signal." "Okay, let's go, bud." "We're on." " Who's this?" " Heather's parents." "She was telling the truth." "Just go with the plan." "Oy!" "There they are." "Get 'em!" "Well, Hiccup." "Bet you're surprised to see me." "Eh, not really." "This is where you live, right?" "Hey, easy, bud." "Looks like he's got us this time." "You know, Hiccup, with this book, your knowledge of dragons and my knowledge of warfare, we could make quite the team." "How does that sound?" "Uh, insane, demented, delusional, stupid." "All right, then." "We'll just have to agree to disagree." "You're a smart boy, Hiccup." "You know I can't let you leave the island." "And you're a smart murderous barbarian, Alvin." "You know I have a better plan than this." "So do I." " Now!" " Now!" "Help!" "Help!" "This wasn't part of the plan, Hiccup." "Youch!" "Get him!" "Look out!" "There's too many of them!" "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "We're never going to get out of here!" " Is that...?" " Yeah!" " Heather!" " Stormfly!" "What?" "Heather?" "I'm sorry I didn't believe you." "It's okay." "I wouldn't have believed me either." "Now let's get your parents." "Mom!" "Dad!" "Hang on!" "All right, guys, just like we practiced." " Ruffnut, cover fire!" " It's about time." "I love this part." "Wait for it." "Fishlegs, incoming!" "Oh, nice catch, girl." "Lava blast." " That's it, Meatlug!" " Yeah!" "Now, Snotlout!" "Go for it!" "You feeling the heat, boys?" "'Cause I sure am." "Great job, guys." "Let's get out of here." "They're getting away!" "Stop 'em!" "Shouldn't we test this first?" "Why, you little..." "Astrid!" "Surrender, or I'll..." "Well, you know the rest." "Do it, bud." "Hiccup, don't shoot!" " Who is that?" " Just a new friend I made." "Did you see that?" "The dragon came for her." "It protected her." "Bonded with her." "We need to get that book back, Alvin." "We need more than the book." "We need that boy." "I can't thank you enough... especially you, Astrid."

"I spell apocalypse" "I haven't slept many nights... ' you are the one I've been thinking about" "I've even touched it... your body's as clear as crystal" "A spell I wanted to cast... this meeting was just a pretext" "I wanted to steal your heart... this meeting was just a pretext" "Apocalypse..." "I spell apocalypse" "Apocalypse... you spell apocalypse" "In your arms, I want to live..." "On your eyes, I want to be drunk" "The redness of my lips..." "I have preserved only for you" "I wished to drive you mad... this meeting was just an excuse" "I wanted to steal your heart... this meeting was just a pretext" "Apocalypse... you spell apocalypse" "Apocalypse..." "I spell apocalypse" "You've already killed, Dara" "However, children..." "times are bad" "I have news from the CBI that one Akram Shaikh is hot on your trail" "He'll always keep trailing." " In missiles and arms... we've gone too far ahead anyway." " If you get caught..." "I won't remain the Home Minister anymore." "Do you understand that?" "If this deal goes through, you will become the Chief Minister, Uncle" "Don't call me Uncle, okay?" "You're very mischievous." "Now tell me." "What are you doing about Akram Shaikh?" "Did that hurt?" "I'll tell you!" "Ali, Abbas..." " Damn it, Suresh-bhai!" "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" "Why do you provoke violence in Gandhi's land?" "Has he told you something?" "A police beating is quite something else, sir" "Even the mute start singing" "My suspicion was right, sir" "Small-time thieves four years ago, Ali and Abbas... are today's biggest arms-dealers" "Ever since America is keeping a vigil on other countries... these terrorists want to turn India into a marketplace for firearms" "We will not let India get a bad name in the rest of the world" "You are now in-charge of the case" "Sir, Dara's murder, the seizure of the map from the hotel room..." "I don't know why, but I feel... that there's a storm in the offing." "The city's under threat, sir" "We've been after Dara for so many days for these weapons" "And now we get our hands on them" "What a figure!" "Sleek and sexy!" "We only need a virus now." " Funny!" "Not even the girls I promise marriage every day are as suspicious" "I told you, you'll have the virus" "In which case, the government will go down on its knees" "We can spell doom" "How about making a call to Brigadier Rashid...?" "Our contact in the ISI" "This cake in the shape of India, in the flavour of pistachio... in green!" "It's going to be fun relishing it" "Ali Abbas!" "Have you got your hands on those missiles?" "Yes, you need to help us now." "And we will help you" "It's like this, brother" "Every Muslim from the land of the infidels finds shelter in our land" "Anyone who teaches the infidels a lesson... becomes the King of the palaces of Karachi" "You must teach them a lesson too" "The serial bomb-blasts of '93 are fading from memory" "What Dara could never do, we will do" "Wow!" "Wonderful!" "Take shelter from us." "And take the money from them" "God protect you." " God protect you" "Mr Vajpayee wants peace." "And we want pieces" "Pieces of India" "Especially this one..." "Kashmir" "Our virus will show such magic in Bombay... that talks between the countries will collapse, even before they begin" "This virus could very well become a bigger issue than Kashmir" "A delegation from the Defence Ministry has arrived, sir" "The director wants you to brief them on the virus" "Sir, these important files are going to the U.N." "Please sign them" "How are you, Gopal?" " How should I be?" "I hear you're going to brief a delegation from the Defence Ministry?" "You will go to America to do a research at the director's recommendation... and when you return, you will be the join-director, sir!" "How am I to feel?" "I've worked all night and prepared a progressive report on the virus" "Our research team is being headed by a young, brilliant scientist Rahul Gupta" "The enemy every day warns us of a nuclear war" "He prepares chemical and biological weapons" "Our intelligence have unearthed the information... that the enemy has developed this virus" "If this virus is dropped in our country through missiles... people will suffer to death." "No one will survive" "Air, water and land... wherever this virus explodes... it will affect the nervous system of everyone in a radius of 10 kilometers" "Our research team is therefore preparing an antidote" "An anti-virus, like the ones used for Cholera and Typhoid" "Should this virus be mixed in water... we're trying to develop something that will prevent it from becoming poisonous" "A virus as deadly as this one, no human brain has ever given birth to" "But our research-team has made good progress" "In a month or two, we will succeed in our mission" "I've even asked for Vodka today" "Rahul, there's no one in my house tonight" "Why?" "Where has everyone gone?" "Daddy's in Bangalore, Mummy's..." "Dr Kalam is there too." "He's got a lovely lab" "Tonight, I'm all alone in my house" "Now look, just don't be afraid." "Keep the doors and windows shut" "Keep a torch within reach." "If possible, call Bunty over..." "There's something I wish to tell you today" "What?" "Will you marry me?" "Sheetal, you...?" "I've fallen in love" "Something's happened to me, my love" "In your arms, my body... melts in the heat" "Shut the windows, my love... let me draw the curtains" "Let's do away with the distances between us, my love" "A miracle..." "has occurred" "Something's happened to me, my love" "In my arms, your aching body... melts in the heat" "I've fallen in love" "Something's happened to me, my love" "In your arms, my body... melts in the heat" "I'm leaving for the trip." "The boat's ready" "You ought to have joined me, stupid" "I've got work to do." "Some intense work" "I know your intense work." "Listen..." "Listen, Rahul..." "I found the virus-ball lying outside on my table" "It ought to be in the safe!" "Sir, Gopal was here last evening" "This is the Elphinston Jail" "Many notorious criminals used to be held here" "And how were they brought here?" " Just as you were brought here" "Mister, I'm the one she asked." "Why did you answer the question?" "Because I know a lot about this jail too" "Maybe you do." "But why snatch my livelihood?" "How will I tell you what else I'm going to snatch?" "This jail is surrounded by the sea." "No prisoner could therefore run away" "How do you know the detailed history of this jail?" "I know of the things that happened, and also what's about to happen" "Please come..." "let's go towards the lock-ups" "This is the place where dreaded criminals were held for years... without any food or water." "You sleep in your houses... with the air-conditioners on." "But take a look in these jails" "You will learn a huge lesson!" "I was only kidding!" "I only wanted you to feel what those prisoners felt" "Take a look at these jails." "Maybe they'll wash away your sins" "May you be blessed in jail!" "Everybody's in...?" "What's happening here?" "It's the beginning of a game" "You're the prisoners." "And we're the jailors" "It's no use trying to use your mobile-phones" "We've jammed your mobile-phones here" "Who are you...?" "I'm no guide." "I'm a scientist" "And now starts a deadly game" "We're holding you hostages" "Till the government meets our demands, you folks will remain here" "We have no enmity against you." "But you must do as we say" "Get us out of here!" "Surround the jail with guards." "Use the radars" "At every entry point, deploy motion sensors" "James, what's this?" " It's a motion sensor" "Whenever someone gets close to it, our computers will alert us" "And if someone even defuses it, we'll still get to know" "You mean we'll get to know immediately that someone has arrived?" "Where have you placed the seven missiles?" "One's in the tower, two in the library... two in the ammunition room, and two in the Portuguese room" "I've connected you both to the C.M.'s phone" "C.M., bad news for you" "We've turned the Elphinston Jail into a prison again" "What rubbish are you talking?" "Who are you?" "Don't interrupt." "Talk only when we ask you to." "Go ahead now" "Why're you asking him to talk?" " Okay, shut up!" "You talk." " Who are you?" "You speak up again!" "So let me tell you" "We're madmen... by the end, we're going to turn you mad too" "We've captured 213 tourists." "Including some foreigners" "Who are you?" "Who are we...?" "Why?" "You want to get your daughter married to them?" "Even if you want to, don't offer the guests any water" "If they drink the water, they're doing to die!" "With our missiles, we have targetted the seven lakes... which supply drinking water to the whole of Mumbai" "Our missiles are carrying not just explosives... there's also the virus we have stolen from the CDC Lab" "C.M., if you don't meet our demands, we'll let go of a missile... and the whole of Mumbai will perish with the water" "Don't talk, C.M. Just watch the teaser" "At the lake in Goregaon" "Full of emotions... and cries of agony" "Cancel all my appointments for the day..." "What's happening here...?" "28 people are dead, a child's suffering... tell us something, sir!" "The effect of the virus" "Take a look at this, sir" "I need samples of this water." " Okay, sir" "People have died a horrible death!" "We've seen 29 bodies today, it'll be 2.9 million soon!" "I'm glad they haven't contaminated the air to terrorise us" "They've only contaminated the well water" "One moment." "Call from Elphinston Jail, sir" "15 billion and a ship to get out of here" "What?" " Aren't you recording it?" "Listen to what you've recorded" "You have 24 hours." " I get it" "You speak up again?" "All right, go ahead" "You must speak now and then" "As for what we can do, you've seen a sample at the well in Goregaon" "I'll explain." "Until we have sailed across the Arabian Sea... the 213 hostages will remain with us on the ship" "You're already using your brains... as to what you've got to do in the next 24 hours" "Tell him, James" "Anything done within a radius of 3 kilometers of this jail... will see our missile land in the seven lakes of Mumbai" "If you try to explode the missile in mid-air, they'll no doubt blow up" "But the virus will spread everywhere in the atmosphere... and kill all of you." "You get that?" "24 hours... to doomsday" "These criminals who have taken over the Elphinston jail... are they indeed capable of doing something so dangerous?" "They are." "Akram...?" "Ali Rehmani" "He found many jobs, but because of his abusive nature... and his bad habits, he couldn't keep any job" "Abbas Rehmani" "Like this brother, very intelligent... dreams of becoming rich overnight" "The two of them deal in defence equipment only in name" "But actually, they're agents of international arms-smugglers" "Laila" "Once the life of the discos in Bombay" "She's the life of the two brothers now" "James Ricardo." "The gang's techno-brains" "He used to work for the NASA earlier" "Murthy, worked in an explosives factory." "Expert at explosives" "Lop, a radar-expert" "There's another thing." "As smart as they are in committing a crime... they're equally adept at wiping out the evidence" "Which is why, we have only information." "We have no evidence" "We have informers, no witnesses" "Is there no way we can survive this virus?" "This virus spreads very quickly in air and water, sir" "In Mumbai, it'll spread faster because of the humid conditions" "This virus could perhaps be destroyed with fire" "We're still experimenting, sir" "To begin with, alert the navy" "Seal the area, 3 kilometers in the radius of the Elphinston Jail" "So that no vessel, whether it belongs to the fishermen or the government... goes there." "Also declare the area as a no-flying zone" "Alert all the emergency services." "And please... think of a sure-shot plan to rid ourselves of this crisis" "I'll go and have a word with the P.M." "Why that smoke...?" " Reaction" "O God!" "We must get the gas out of the chamber!" "Else, they can't get out either." "The gas will spread through the lab" "The experiment has succeeded" "Put the concentrate in the test-tube" "This virus can be destroyed with fire" "10 seconds more" "We've fixed sensors and motion detectors on all the ways to the jail" "If the C.M. Acts smart, they're going to get caught" "We've even laid landmines everywhere" "You've got to watch your step, Laila." " What for?" "If you are blown up, we brothers are going to be widowed" "I hope you've marked the areas where you laid the landmines" "I want to live." "With her" "And I... want to die with her" "Even if we die, we'll take the whole of Mumbai with us" "Any contact with the tourists' kin?" " Yes, sir" "They have been taken into confidence" "What about the firebombs?" " The air-force's firebombs... will burn everyone there along with the virus" "I hope that moment never arrives" "How are we to attack them?" "If their radar intercepts our bombs, their missiles will all be fired" "And Mumbai...!" "There is a way, sir." " Which one?" "To get into the jail through the water" "In the sea is a secret way, where there are several other tunnels" "One of the tunnels leads to the septic tank in the jail" "And there's just one man who knows about it" "But there's a problem, sir." " What?" "The man who knows about the way, is serving a term in the Pune jail" "What...?" "How does he...?" "He's the only man who successfully ran away from the Elphinston Jail" "What is he serving a sentence for?" "Murder." "There are other charges against him too" "You want to take the help of a criminal like him?" "Yes." "Do we have a choice?" "How will such a man pull off something so difficult?" "Hatred is an intense power, sir" "He was once a friend of Ali and Abbas." "He's their enemy today" "Sir, call from the PMO" "How did you find out so much about this criminal?" "A man who can run away from the Elphinston Jail... is someone we must have information on." "Sir, please take a look at his file" "I've only told you about the hatred he harbours in his heart" "But the sentiment that drove him to break jail... was his love for someone" "Loneliness everywhere... somberness in the air" "Her memories... bring tears to my eyes" "I breathe restlessly... there's an ache in my heart" "Separated from my beloved... life is no fun at all" "She torments me so much... that girl I miss so much" "She makes me laugh... she makes me cry... she torments me so much" "Sweetheart, beloved... you are the one I have loved" "Restlessness grips my heart... what ache have you given to my heart?" "You are the one I have loved" "You have stolen my heart" "The glance you cast, robbed me of my peace... your dreams kept me awake all nights" "A thirst for you lingers on my lips... what love is all about, you have shown me" "You have stolen my heart" "My feet no longer tread the ground..." "I've begun to fly" "Like fragrance, your tresses are spread in the air" "What spell have you cast?" "You have stolen my heart" "You have stolen my heart" "In your arms, I must live and die" "I have decided." "You are the one I will love without reservations" "You are the one I have taken as my beloved" "You have stolen my heart" "You have stolen my heart" "You're going away now." " Stop me, if you can" "As if you'd stay back if I asked you to" "I could even lay down my life, if you asked me to" "Stop fibbing" "But I feel like talking with you." "All day, night, evening and noon" "Just talking." " So go on" "Your deep voice..." "it does something to my heart" "So I'll keep talking." "All my life." "So much that you'll be fed up" "You will call me from Mumbai, won't you?" "Are you going to think of me?" "You're the only girl I can never stop thinking about" "The moment I've wrapped up daddy's business..." "I'll fly into your arms from Mauritius" "I'm glad you went away to Mauritius" "There's no tension with the police anymore" "Everything's under control." " Let's talk business" "Podar Seth's company has closed down." " What happened?" "That which is happening everywhere" "From Bikaner's bhujia to Dehradun's basmati rice... from potato chips to the computer chips... multinationals are storming into every trade" "Why're you playing a socialist?" "What do you want me to do?" "I'll explain." "Peter, switch off the music" "Podar Seth needs a new formula of a medical drug to start another company" "We've got to steal that formula from a multinational company" "Why wait for me to pull off something so easy?" "You could've done it on your own." " We couldn't have" "This company has a very advanced security system." "Ultra-modern" "The alarm will go off the moment we pick up the floppy" "The police will take 2 minutes to get there... but the security guards will be there in 10 seconds" "Only you can steal that floppy and escape in 10 seconds" "The money?" " We've taken an advance" "We'll get the rest later." " The most important thing... you can't enter the company's records room through the door" "You'll have to get in through the roof from a height of 150 feet, you will descend here" "The problem is:" "Laser beam traps are laid all over the floor" "They aren't visible, but the moment you touch them, the alarm will go off" "But these laser-beams can be seen through a smokescreen" "She makes me laugh, she makes me cry... she torments me so much" "I miss that girl very much" "Say something... don't be quiet." "Just keep talking" "Your voice..." "Forget about my voice and heed my heart" "I'll come back soon" "She makes me laugh... she makes me cry... she torments me so much" "I miss that girl very much" "He appears in my dreams... he steals my heart... he torments me so much" "I miss that boy very much" "The first time I saw her, I went crazy about her'" "She acknowledged my love and robbed me of my peace" "He's the one I could die for..." "I'm not afraid of the world" "It's his name I always chant, as I sigh wistfully" "What helplessness is this?" "Our love is yet unrequitted" "This distance shall be only for a few days... unite then, we must" "He awakens the ache in my heart" "I miss that boy very much" "She makes me laugh..." "she makes me cry... she torments me so much" "He appears in my dreams... he steals my heart... he torments me so much" "I miss that boy very much" "I miss that girl very much" "I still can't believe it that you have returned" "Liar!" "You didn't come to the airport to receive me" "Your daddy was coming there." " So what?" "You could've met him too." " In his presence... could I have touched you like this?" " Strange guy, Ali!" "You guys... here?" " For a cup of coffee, what else?" "We're good friends of Rachait" "Rachait, I must leave" "Don't you like our company?" " It's nothing of the sort" "Well...?" "Love?" "You didn't give us a proper introduction to your girlfriend" "We'd have said a few words in praise of you" "You've given that girl the status of art!" "Looks like you haven't told her what you do for a living" "Every time I told a girl, she fled!" "Love makes people talk." "And you've fallen silent" "Let's talk business" "It's going to be very crowded there, there will be a lot of securitymen" "And the party's being held on the 20th floor" "It's impossible for us to escape from there" "What's gotten into you?" "I'm not in the mood." " Where are you going?" "Moods don't run the business." " I'm not in the mood, I told you" "I don't want to do it." " Relax, Ali" "Let's talk about it later" "Something surely is fishy." " Isn't there?" "It's his girlfriend" "You're through with talking, Rachait?" "And you said you could go on all your life" "Well, Mr Silent...?" "What's up?" "Sapna, I carry a burden on my heart" "So give it to me." "Your burden and your sorrows" "I am a criminal" "Ever since I was a child, I have been a thief" "But I'm not using my poverty and helplessness as an excuse" "I'm just a thief" "Maybe you've become quiet because you hear me say this" "Maybe you'll go far away from me in just a moment or two" "I'm afraid to turn around and see." "Even if you have walked away..." "I won't hold you guilty." "But if you're still with me..." "I promise, I will give up everything." "Everything." "Promise?" "I've made up my mind." "I'm giving up all this" "Is that your decision...?" "Or is it hers?" "If you're in love, get married." "That's a nice thing" "We'll dance at your wedding." "But there's a problem" "If one of us commits the theft, he won't be able to escape" "He'll get caught." "And if he tattles on the names of anyone of us... the police could come to your house too" "Your family will be ruined before it's made" "That's just what we don't want!" " Now look... the necklace is worth 50 million." "Do it one last time" "Once we have the money, we'll give up this profession too" "We'll also get married" "The last time...?" " Of course." "The last time!" "I'm glad he agreed." " Have you told him... the necklace has a computer chip with the army's secrets in it?" "As is he'd have agreed then!" "Before the chip is delivered to anyone else, it'll fall in our hands" "And we'll sell it to the ISI at any price we wish" "But the goose that lays the golden eggs is slipping out of our hands" "It won't." " Sapna will not be true for him" "You have a beautiful necklace" "What business are you into?" " I run a diamond business" "By the way, I don't dance with just about anyone" "In which case, you will remember me for a long time to come" "People think of me after I'm gone away" "Out with the necklace" "Out with the necklace" "You wanted to give the ISI classified information about the Indian army!" "Bring these three guys along." "Move it" "Why do your friends Ali and Abbas want to kill me?" "Take the body to the hospital" "Have him charged under TADA and locked away in the Elphinston Jail forever" "He'll rot in exile" "We have another request." "Our names mustn't be dragged into this case" "This is the Elphinston Jail" "In the last 150 years, not one prisoner has been able to run away from here" "I see a rebellion in your eyes." "But your lips are sealed" "Maybe the onslaught of time has turned you dumb" "And we have now clipped your wings." "Don't ever try to escape from here" "You'll either drop dead on the ground... or drown in the sea." "Understand?" "He ran away!" "In just 2 months" "I know where he must've gone" "Forgive me, although we don't know each other..." "I do know of the love that lies hidden in your heart" "For Rachait" "I think of the immense love he must've had for you... to lose his balance of mind" "I don't want to listen to anything about him" "You may leave" "I have nothing to do with people who break their promises" "Please don't say that." "I need your help" "I don't meet anyone." " I know... you're dead, as far as the world is concerned" "Because you're from the CBI, I was compelled to..." "That's exactly why you must go to Rachait with me" "No" "He won't turn you down" "And we desperately need him in this mission" "I'm dead for him!" " But he's dying every moment... with your memories." " So tell him... to light a pyre of the memories." " Even the smoke from the pyre... will be that of your love." "Come with me just once" "Let him see that you're alive." "He'll come back to life... and our mission will be successful." " Sorry, I can't help you" "I implore you in the name of someone you must ever have loved" "You will never tell him that I'm alive" "Did you have to implore me in someone's name...?" "Although she's no more..." "my love for her is still alive" "And here, although she's alive... the poor man thinks his beloved is dead" "Why're you wasting your time over such a man?" "He's lost to himself." "What use will you have for him?" "I want to take a chance, jailer." " Why take a chance for a man... who's alive just by chance?" " What does that mean?" "Every 12 hours, the man drops dead." " Dead?" "Yes, every 12 hours, he suffers a fit" "He sees only shadows everywhere" "He then runs after them" "He assaults anyone who comes before him" "Out of control some times, he bangs his head against the wall" "So how do you bring him under control?" " With tranquilisers" "Although these tranquilisers affect his memory" "But he calms down instantly" "What happens when the effect of the tranquiliser has worn off?" "I didn't give him a dose, because you wanted to question him" "Set him free" "Please leave" "Everyone here thinks you're good for nothing" "But I think you can be of great use to me" "I'm Akram Shaikh." "From the CBI" "Your name is Rachait, isn't it?" "You have two objectives in life." "Both of them... cannot be accomplished unless you're out of prison" "I can help you in getting out of jail" "If you help me... to save the nation from a crisis" "The Elphinston Jail..." "does that ring a bell?" "It's now a tourist spot." "But when it was a prison... no inmate could ever run away from it" "Except one man." "You" "In the waters under the jail, is a maze of tunnels leading to the shores" "Only you know about them" "You were the one who ran away from there" "I want to use the same tunnel to get inside the jail" "You will go with me, because... you will fulfill an objective if you leave with me" "Two men are holding 213 people hostages in the prison" "The two men are your friends." "The brothers..." "Abbas and Ali" "They've placed all the seven lakes in Mumbai in target of a deadly virus" "If their demands are not met, along with Mumbai... they'll destroy the entire nation." "I know, it'll make no difference to you" "But if your enemies slip out of our hands this time... they'll have gone very far away from your reach" "You'll never find a better opportunity of confronting them" "Come with me and have your revenge" "I forgot... your second objective." "Your love" "Love never dies, they say" "And the way you loved her, only someone in love can understand" "She left you and went away to a world of her own" "But whichever world she lives in, you will meet her some day" "And what will you say to her?" "That you were a criminal who served a sentence?" "Won't you do something that will make you rise in her esteem?" "So that she can say, no one has ever loved the way you have" "you can fight it because you loved someone too" "Or maybe for the millions who live in Mumbai" "No one can snatch that right from us!" "We were born in a free nation..." "Hey little girl... you talk as if the mutiny of 1857 has begun again" "You're in the habit of talking about the mutiny of 1857... and the struggle of 1942, aren't you?" " I'm your guide, after all" "You can't hold us back by force!" "I love fighting girls." "What is your name?" "Congratulations!" "You have just won your freedom!" "Guards, open the door" "Welcome" "You've won freedom only from them." "Not from me" "This one's been instigating everyone." "I suggest, you keep her separately" "Lock her up in the old wing of the jail" "Who else wants freedom?" "Hey C. M..." " Who's this?" "Your father!" " Watch your language!" "Watch your manners" "This is your mother speaking, son" "Call me a genius" "Haven't we turned the heat on the whole of Mumbai?" "You remember the demands, don't you?" "Ali, you talk to him" "You remember the demands?" "150 billion and a ship to leave" "But who's going to give you asylum?" " There's just one nation... which gives asylum to the criminals of India" "You have 20 hours to go" "Get in!" "The walls in this cell are very weak." "Scream, and they'll collapse on you" "You look handsome" "Time turns you into a savage, Time turns you human" "We're all slaves to Time." "Because Time is all powerful" "Your face has changed today, your clothes will change soon... maybe your Times will change too" "Never have faith... never wait" "Don't ever have boundless love for anyone" "Don't ever have boundless love for anyone" "Someone is faithful, someone is unfaithful... who knows what misdeamonour they commit" "In love, I have been heart-broken..." "I have been deserted half way through the journey" "Don't ever express it... don't ever wait for him" "Don't ever have boundless love for anyone" "Don't ever have boundless love for anyone" "My suspicion was right, sir." "The ISI has hatched this conspiracy" "I've received a report from RAW too" "ISI's Brigadier Rashid is behind all this" "He's the one who tried the virus on a few of our prisoners" "But our forces will give him a fitting reply" "Go ahead and accomplish your mission" "Hail India, sir." " Hail India" "Akram, this is Brigadier Rashid calling from Pakistan" "Quickly say what you've got to" "Let Mumbai go to the dogs." "You needn't worry about your job" "As soon as Kashmir is freed, we'll appoint you the I.G. There" "Allah-willing, Kashmir will soon be ours" "Hey Rashid, stop dreaming" "You've been fighting for Kashmir for the last 55 years... has Allah ever helped you?" "No" "You know why?" "Because even Allah wants Kashmir to be part of India" "If not to us, listen to at least the will of Allah" "Because of Allah I have telephoned to help a Muslim brother of mine" "Why?" "Are there no Muslims in Pakistan anymore?" "Help them, Rashid miyan." "And if you think Pakistani's are not Muslims... it's a very sad comment" "But if they are and you still want to help us here... people in your country will call you a traitor, Rashid Miyan" "Not me!" "It's people of your country that call you Muslims traitors!" "Oh yes, there are some people here... who lecture us on patriotism every now and then" "Like you lecture us on Islam all the time" "Now look, Brigadier." "My religion is Islam" "But my motherland is Hindustan." "And thus I salute Mother India... the one you want to bleed." "Stop doing it" "Else, we'll teach you a lesson the world will be left watching" "We'll finish you for good" "At Sunset, we'll reach the prison." "With high tide... we'll gain entry into the prison through the secret tunnels" "With me will be this special force of commandos" "And also Rahul Gupta, scientist of CDC" "He will tell us about the virus that is loaded in the missile" "However close you get to the missile, whatever the emergency... do not even try to separate the virus from the missile" "Which is why I'm going to with you." "And remember... the slightest bit of carelessness on our part... could make the entire mission fail." "It could affect the whole country" "This virus is very dangerous" "The moment the mission is accomplished, one of you... will have to light smoke-sticks to signal us" "Akram, can Rachait recall something?" " He will, sir" "The moment he sees the model, it'll all come back to him" "This is the jail you were held captive at" "Try and recall how you escaped from there" "Remember something?" "Officer, here are Rachait's medicines" "If he has another fit, give him these medicines" "He will calm down immediately" "Sapna, this is Akram" "You didn't go with me to meet Rachait." "But I still want to thank you" "You haven't told Rachait that I'm alive, have you?" "No, he still doesn't know that you're alive" "This mission is so dangerous, there's no saying... whether he will even return alive" "Rachait did not betray you, he gave you only love" "Because of that very love, he forget the way to live... the way to speak" "Hail India" "I have influence in the Prime Minister's office, my child" "You guys have played a very big game." "Now listen carefully" "Bad news." "Akram Shaikh, with 10 commandos, is coming to attack you" "And there's good news too." "Your old friend, philosopher... is coming to you to be your friend for a lifetime" "Your guide" "Be careful" "Our old friend Rachait is coming." "To fight against us" "Really?" "In that case, we must welcome him" "Isn't it the Rachait you guys often talk about?" "Before you finish him, do let me take a look at him" "No, no, no!" "Why not?" " Because he's a lover" "What if you fall in love with him?" "The two of us will be ruined" "So we'll first kill him and then show you" "The helicopter has dropped the commando force... about 3 kilometers away from the jail" "They're now moving towards the secret tunnels" "Sir, our commandos have got into he Elphinston Jail" "The jail was made and destroyed several times" "I don't know which map ought to be followed" "Rachait can help us only if he remembers something" "Sir, our commandos have got into the tunnel to the jail" "The cameras are switched on." "You can take a look" "Can you see something?" "Careful, sir." "There's a motion-sensor there" "They've left the tunnel" "Stay here, Rahul." "And take care of Rachait" "Moron!" "Your government sent you here... and you came along chanting Hail India!" "When we set chanting out Hail India... we only return victorious." " Not from here" "You'll get killed!" " If we die... scores of others will stand up." "If they are killed... millions of others will rise against you" "He's talking too much!" " Make a sieve out of him!" "Akram Shaikh, your death is destined at our hands!" "And your death is also destined at someone's hands" "Not me, but the One Above knows who" "We're the ones above!" "Can't you see that?" "Now beg for your life!" "He's down on his knees anyway!" "Looks like they were told beforehand about our commandos' attack" "Sir, we've got signals from the second camera" "He's still suffering." " So let him suffer" "Are you guys thinking of shooting him?" "Here goes" "Do what you will." "You can't run away from here" "We're not running away." "We're leaving... in a ship of your government, like their sons-in-law" "Don't you know where we're going?" "Very well too." "There's just one nation... where every terrorist from India is hailed and welcomed" "You got it right!" "But that nation is a paradise for Muslims like us!" "You're going to get kicked around in that paradise you're going to" "Even in 1947, several people went across in search of their paradise" "They were subjected to a lot of humiliation" "That's what's going to happen to you too" "Whatever happens to us over there, we hate the infidels in this country!" "Not Hindus, not Muslims... this country has a problem with traitors" "I haven't killed you yet because you're a Muslim" "If you want to live, talk to the C.M." "And make him give us the 150 billion" "I'll get you even 1500 billion." "On one condition" "Take all your friends with you, whose faith is money... and betrayal, their profession" "Whatever faith or religion they belong to" "He spoke so much!" "It's all over" "You're in a lot of pain, aren't you?" "All I regret is that I'm leaving a mission incomplete... for the first time in my life." " Nothing will happen to you!" "Nothing!" "Looks like God has called me over" "From very far away... someone's calling me" "I'm coming, my love..." "I'm coming" "No!" "Akram, we'll be able to do nothing!" "No!" "Don't say such things." "Promise me... you will leave only after you have done what we had set out to do" "They are not the ones who will bring doomsday... we'll bring doom to them" "Hey C.M. You sent commandos here!" "I..." "I sent them to negotiate with you" "With guns in their hands?" "Their guns spoke, so did ours." "They're all dead-meat" "Now see what we're going to do!" "Rachait, they're going to kill us!" "Get up!" "They've got guns!" "We could lose our lives!" "Do you get what I'm saying, Rachait?" "I was crazy to come here to defuse the missiles!" "I've had my fuse blown and you won't say a word!" "Say something... react!" "They were here." "They've killed Akram Shaikh!" "The one who brought us here." "He's gone away... and left us here!" "What am I going to do?" "Oh yes!" "You remember the way back!" "We'll go back the way we came!" "I can't even remember a normal route, Rachait" "I've burnt Rachait to death." "His ashes will now flow into the sea!" "Only his ashes will escape from this jail!" "Sir, there's a girl called Sapna who wants to meet you" "She says she has permission from the P.M.'s office" "What am I to tell her, sir?" " Show her in" "There was a call from the PMO that a girl wants to see me" "She's the lover of the prisoner Rachait who has gone on the mission" "Is Rachait all right?" "Yes, we're trying to establish contact" "What does that mean?" " At the moment... those who have gone on the mission, are missing" "What are you looking for...?" "Looks like the effect of the medicine is wearing off" "He's getting the fits again" "Sir, the scientist Rahul Gupta is right before Lt Pradip's camera" "Switch on the beep of the wireless!" "Tap it, please!" "Who's this?" " Khurana." "CBI chief" "Sir, how do you know that I've got the wireless?" "The officer lying in front of you..." " He's dead, sir there's a camera fixed on his shoulder... through which I can see you" "Remove the camera from his shoulder and fix it on yours" "They've all been killed, sir." "Only Rachait and I are alive" "I know all the commandos have been killed" "A traitor has leaked information to them" "No, sir..." "The two of you can complete the mission!" "Do not lose your nerve!" "There's someone standing right in front of you!" "When death stares you in the face, you have only two options" "Either surrender or take him on" "Hurry up and get to Rachait" "Rachait!" "Get up!" "Come to your senses!" "Only the two of us are left!" "It's very important for Rachait to regain consciousness" "On him depends the success of our entire mission" "But how are we going to sit here and bring him back to his senses?" "Sir, I can help you" "I can have a word with Rachait" "Talk to him!" "Go on!" "Rachait..." "Rachait, this is Sapna" "Are you listening, Rachait?" "I'm alive, Rachait" "Nothing has happened to me, Rachait" "I'm here in the control-room." "Only for you" "Only for you, Rachait" "I went far away from you, didn't I?" "I'll never do that again" "You can give me any punishment you wish to" "But once... come back Rachait." "Just once" "I want to live again..." "in your eyes, in your arms, Rachait" "I'll wait for you" "I'm going to wait for you" "I'll break every boundary in my love for you, Rachait" "Stand up, Rachait." "Rise and destroy those... who have betrayed not just you, they have betrayed the nation too!" "The CBI director says the two of us can complete this mission" "There are three missile stations here" "But which one is the closest, I don't know." "You'll have to..." "The General is very happy with you" "The way you have finished the commandos... he has decided to reward you with 5 billion rupees" "Thank you." "Tell the General that we will finish anyone... who stands in our way." "Before the Indian government makes another move... we'll put the pressure on them." "We'll scare them a bit more" "In a few hours, we're reaching your country." "God protect you" "Let me fire a missile on Mumbai!" "Only then will the C.M. Send the money" "Abbas, what are you doing?" "I'm going to put the whole of Mumbai to eternal sleep!" "I only asked you to threaten them!" " I've said what I had to" "Gopal, let the missile go." " Let's do it" "Abbas, hold it!" "Gopal, let go of the other missile" "Do what you want to." "I'm hurling a missile at them" "I'll kill you!" " Ali!" "Try killing me!" "That's Mumbai..." "Sir, they've fired a missile from Elphinston Jail" "What have you done!" "What fear or bargaining power do we now have!" "That C.M. Wasn't sending us the money!" "He'll send it now" "We won't get the money anymore" "We've contaminated their lake." "All our efforts have been in vain!" "Have you gone out of your mind?" " You guys were out of your minds" "I kept my nerve." " Kept your nerve, my foot!" "I let the missile go, but I took out the virus" "I've fired a blank missile!" "So you fired a blank missile?" "Because the virus isn't a bullet you can fire at will" "The virus is priceless." "It's worth billions." "Like me!" "We're saved!" "We're saved, Laila!" "Gopal, you're a genius." " That I am!" "We are saved." "Abbas, don't ever do that again, brother" "Don't call me brother." "You fired at me!" "Out of love, brother." "Don't be angry with me" "You aren't angry with me, are you?" "Let's embrace, brother" "C.M., do you see the power we wield?" "We wanted to undo the dhoti you wear, not make you wet it" "Which is why we didn't load the missile with the virus" "They had taken out the virus from the missile" "Now tell us how many hours you have left" "Eighteen." " Wrong!" "10 hours" "You tried to act smart by sending those commandos" "So soon, how am I..." " Eight hours" "Listen to me, please..." " Six hours" "Four Two!" "One" "Want us to fire the missile?" " No, no!" "So let's settle at five hours." "150 billion and a ship" "Remember, we're really mad" "If you ruin our mood, we'll put the whole of Mumbai to sleep" "Okay, I'll meet all your demands in five hours." "All right?" "What's happening, sir...?" "They're dropping missiles on Mumbai?" "In the lake at Powai which provides drinking water?" "I'm going to answer all your questions" "It was an exercise on the part of the defence ministry" "Why didn't you inform the public well in advance?" "Many things the press get to know even before the government does" "How did you miss out on this one?" " You're the one who missed out, sir!" "I can't believe this is the place they have kept the missiles" "This is the compartment in which the virus is loaded" "This is where the virus is." "One mistake could ruin everything" "Here's the virus in its hyper concentrated bio-chemical matrix form" "This is the deadly virus" "One down." "Now for the next" "No one's responding from the ammunition room" "That's where the missiles are" "Without this chip, they can't use the missile" "Where are we landing?" "Follow them!" "Where are we going?" "Rachait, they're firing!" "Do something!" "We'll meet with an accident, Rachait!" "Do something!" "You, Sheetal?" "!" " Rahul!" "You?" "!" "Sheetal, you, I..." "I kept calling you like a madman!" "And here you are!" "They kidnapped me, stupid!" "That's all right." "But what are you doing here?" "I'm on a picnic!" "I told you, didn't I?" "But what are you doing here?" "I..." "I'm here on a secret mission" "You came to save me?" "You came to save me!" "My God!" "Listen to me" "Rachait, this is my girlfriend Sheetal" "And this is Rachait, a bit of a snob" "We have very little time." "Here's the map" "Two more missile stations left." "One in the library, one in the tower" "Now which one is closer, I don't..." "Rachait is alive" "Tell me something" "Why've you tied a red handkerchief on your mouth?" "Strange man." "Neither does he talk, nor will he let me talk" "You tell me." "Do I talk too much?" "Oh no." "Where do you talk at all?" " Exactly." "I wonder what he thinks" "That's a toy-gun, isn't it?" " You think it's a toy-gun?" "It's a real one" "Where are you guys headed...?" "Has the money arrived?" "Guns, missiles..." "what's going on over here?" "Someone's coming" "From behind, or towards the front?" " In the front... back there, Rachait..." "Where's Rachait?" "Give me the gun and tell me how it works." "You go and stand there" "Have you gone mad?" "Rahul!" "What's he doing here?" "He must be the one who decoded the missile" "Before he gets to the other missiles, let's gun him down" "Hey Romeo!" "What have you come here for?" "Brother..." "I made a mistake." "I ought to have bumped him off with his Sapna!" "I made a mistake!" "A bloody mistake!" "He has come here to die!" "You stinking..." "Laila, we've buried Rachait" "You can shut the tunnel from the other side now" "So that they don't even come across his soul" "I've pulled out the pin." "Toss it at them quickly" "What a bombshell!" "I must take her out on a vacation!" "We have either lost the signals, or the camera is damaged" "This is no technical glitch." "The two of them have been killed" "When an officer like Akram Shaikh was felled... with outstanding commandos of the nation... what will these two clowns do?" " Mr Home Minister" "Maybe you don't know my Rachait" "He can fight any power on earth." " That's your love for him speaking" "Yes, my love possesses his soul." "And it won't let him die" "There's no jail on earth from which he cannot escape" "History is witness to that" "Rachait, they've blocked all the ways through the tunnels" "Come with us!" "Shit!" "The path this way is blocked too!" "We're going to die here!" "No one's coming to our rescue!" "Why did you come here?" "Even if I were dead... at least you'd have lived!" "Our love would have lived on!" "I'm suffocating!" "I'm going to die!" "Do something, someone!" "Nothing's happening to us!" "It's loaded!" "I just loaded it" "Gunpowder?" "What are you going to do with it?" "Rachait, go to the tower" "I'll meet you there after I've defused the rest of the missiles" "We haven't been able to establish contact!" "What are waiting for?" "Just pay them if you want to save the lives of millions!" "Dollars, Pounds..." "give them whatever they ask for!" "Must we give you your share or will you take it from them?" "What?" "Your pawn has told us everything" "In any case, Akram had prepared a pretty comprehensive file on you" "Half an hour to go and the money still hasn't arrived" "Something is surely wrong" "We're going to make the government's plans go wrong now" "Yes, everything is in place" "We've made arrangements to jam the signals of all tv and radio channels" "You are the only ones who will now feature on every radio and tv channel" "Mumbai's under threat." "So is the rest of India" "I'm Ali." " I'm Abbas" "In exactly 30 minutes, the people in Mumbai will breathe their last" "Because your government does not care for you" "If the government does not meet our demands in half an hour... we will fire the missile at Mumbai!" "The missile is loaded with a deadly virus" "Which will kill you and the whole city, in a matter of a few minutes" "Listen, halt the transmission of all tv and radio channels immediately" "Tell the cable operators to suspend their services till further notice" "It's such a deadly virus, anywhere it is dropped... not even an animal is born for 150 years, let alone a human being" "213 people, we have..." "Looks like the government has blocked all the tv channels" "That's all right." "Our job is done" "Mumbai must've gone berserk!" "Bloody bull!" "Allah, Abbas and Ali are blowing up Mumbai" "As long as there is in Mumbai Haji Ali, no harm can do Abbas and Ali" "You're dominating every channel today" "Thanks." "It's all because of your patronage" "Even we have not been able to scare the Indian administration so much" "Get to the naval border as soon as you have completed your work" "I'll personally come to receive you there" "Come here, my boy... they send a duffer like you to stop me?" "I told you, Gopal." "Never use science for destruction" "Sure, but I hope there are girls and beaches up there" "I'll issue orders to the Air Force to blow them up" "I can't risk the lives of millions for the sake of just 213 hostages" "I'll stop him!" "Go and fire the missile!" "Ali, you fire the missile!" "I'll deal with him" "No, no..." "you can't fire at me" "The moment you shoot, Ali will let go of the missile!" "Let go!" "Leave Abbas alone!" "Else, I'll kill this scientist!" "Leave Abbas alone!" "Else I'll kill him!" " Don't worry about me!" "Kill him, Rachait!" " Let him go, I say!" "I'm sick of these blackmailers." "They hijack planes... explode bombs, poison our drinking water!" "Don't spare him, Rachait." "Kill him!" "Laila... my Laila!" "Laila has saved me." "But what happens of you?" "You're going to your Sapna!" "You're going to Sapna!" "Kill that man and his brother!" "Let me die, Rachait!" "You really... really...?" "!" "Bloody thief!" "You're taking sides with the cops?" "When it's a question of India and Pakistan... every Indian is on one side" "You're in a hurry to go to Pakistan, aren't you?" "Your brother and Laila wanted to go there too" "You're going there too" "They've given us a smoke signal" "Bless you, dear" "Any news of Ali and Abbas?" " No, sir" "Dear citizens of Mumbai, your Mumbai is whole safe now" "The two terrorists Abbas and Ali have been decimated... their missiles and the virus have been destroyed..." "Mumbai is like the Mumbai of old." "Beautiful Mumbai, our Mumbai" "Hail India" "Rachait is now a free man." "Go on." "Live happily" "Rachait, I made a grave mistake in understanding you" "I didn't keep my promise" "Hold on!" "Wait!" "Here's the scoundrel!" "Why did you make a cripple out of me?" "I only tried to save your life" "He speaks!" "He can really speak!"

"He's got ligature marks on his wrists, and it's impossible to tell how long he's been missing." "Are those puncture wounds in the corner of his eyes?" "Yes, and an MRI confirmed that fibers in his brain had been severed." "He had a lobotomy?" "There was hemorrhaging and foreign object splinters imbedded behind his right eye." "Most likely from whatever tool the unsub used." "My guess would be an icepick." "The guy's still alive." "Can we talk to him?" "You should try." "Someone with such a specific M.O." "has probably done this before." "We just don't know about it yet." "It's all being run through ViCAP." "Yes, it is." "The entry points in his eyes are from an outpatient-style traditional lobotomy." "Less mess than drilling holes like Dahmer did." "And Dahmer's method killed." "This didn't." "So either the unsub is lucky or he has medical training." "He wanted his victim to survive." "We need to canvass the area where he was found." "He wouldn't have walked very far in this condition." "Well, lobotomies are considered to be the surgery of the soul." "Doctors like Walter Freeman claimed they could cure a number of mental illnesses." "He believed the procedure could relieve suffering." "Excuse me, Agent Hotchner." "Agent Cruz is here." "Oh."

"When the identity of the victim is unknown, it makes everything that much harder." "I'd like to join you." "It's not every day that these cases take you an hour away from home, so..." "Hotch:" "We leave in 20 minutes." "You could have mentioned this." "I thought you liked surprises." "Seriously, I got word minutes after we had breakfast."

"When will they get here?" "Can you turn those down?" "It's hot." "How are you doing?" "My head hurts worse than it was." "Can you just..." "Thanks, that's better." "You have an I.V. to keep you hydrated." "And I've prescribed propofol to help with any discomfort." "Good, 'cause my head's gonna explode." "Can you take this thing off?" "Get that started."

"It took me years to understand that this, too, was a gift."" "Mary Oliver." "A lobotomy is supposed to alter a patient's personality." "But it's hard to know if that's what he was trying to do since the victim's a John Doe." "When it's used for torture, it's about complete power and control over the victim." "Jeffrey Dahmer fantasized about men and he put battery acid in their brains so they couldn't escape." "All because he was lonely, right?" "Yeah, extremely deranged sexual urges, irrational fantasies, and psychopathic tendencies." "Looks like the victim is in his mid-20s, but no one matching his description has been reported missing in the tri-state area." "Well, it he's been arrested before, his prints will be in the database." "The locals are running them now." "Well, it's no accident the unsub chose a victim who won't be missed." "But if he's so meticulous in his hunting, how did he let his victim escape?" "Hmm." "Interesting." "What's it say?" "Cruz has risen through the ranks." "It looks like he spent most of his time at headquarters." "Blue-flamer." "Being our section chief could be a two-year steppingstone for him." "So he hasn't been in the field, but he wants to now?" "What's wrong with that?" "Come on, it was the same thing with Strauss." "We don't need a babysitter out here." "Well, that's not how she saw it." "She just wanted to see the team in action."

"You ever heard of this Cruz guy?" "Yeah, but we never crossed paths." "You?" "Nope." "JJ?" "Uh, yeah, I've heard his name." "He's been in and out of consciousness." "I've had to stabilize his head, given the extent of the injuries." "He's sedated to help with the pain." "But don't those meds cause amnesia?" "Sometimes." "But I don't have a choice." "Without the pain medicine, he'll be miserable." "It sure wear off in the next few hours." "Do you think he understands what's happening?" "Part of me hopes he doesn't, but, yeah, I think so."

"Blink once if it does." "Ok." "Perfect." "Do you know who did this?" "No." "Was it a man?" "Yes." "Ok." "Was he working alone?" "Yes." "Do you know where he kept you?" "Some dump near Harford Road."

"It could mean the unsub has a job that requires him to leave early." "My guess is his social skills are lacking, and that'll be reflected in his type of work." "S.A.C. is in the field but called to say whatever you need, you got it." "The recovery site's surrounded by abandoned warehouses." "He needs the desolation to enforce his power and control." "There's a team looking through the building now." "This unsub doesn't leave anything to luck." "There was a garbage truck that sticks to a schedule." "Hey, Hotch." "Did you talk to the driver?" "Yeah, according to him, the victim looked and sounded like a zombie." "There's no way he made it far." "Most of the buildings down here are boarded up." "We're starting with the closest one." "The victim was in such bad shape, he probably didn't walk the stairs by himself." "He was either held on the first floor and luckily made it out..." "Or he didn't escape at all." "The unsub let him go." "[Train whistle blowing]" "[Indistinct chatter]" "[Gasping]" "[Moans]" "Come on, stay with me." "I'm just so tired." "Let me get this right." "He's working alone?" "Yes." "But what?" "Was it more than one of you there?" "That's what I've been trying to tell you." "We gotta figure out another way to do this." "My eyes are killing me." "Was it another guy?" "No." "Was it a girl?" "Yes." "Do you know her?" "Yes, I know her." "Dana?" "Dana!" "Dana..." "Here's where he held him." "Why would he let this guy go?" "He wants him to suffer." "Whoa!" "Ooh." "Oh..." "What the hell is that?" "Adult diapers." "Medical soap." "Toothbrushes." "He took care of this victim." "Only to ensure he'd stay alive." "This looks small." "Why would he leave these behind?" "'Cause he wants us to know something." "Hotch, the unsub also had a female victim." "They ran the victim's prints, but he wasn't in any database." "He doesn't have any track marks, and the tox screen is clean." "This isn't the kind of guy who would hang out in that neighborhood." "It rules out the high-risk behavior theory, but it doesn't answer why he wouldn't be missed." "That's what we're working on right now." "What 20-something nowadays wouldn't be missed?" "I mean, with social media alone, there's constant contact." "What's this?" "Over 50 universities in the state, 50 more if you add D.C. and Virginia." "The students are the most socially active of all." "Why aren't we looking into someone with a more isolated existence?" "The low-risk behavior of the victim tells us a lot about his lifestyle." "He might stalk the most isolated victims knowing that they won't be missed." "That's smart." "Campuses are a great place to blend in, and all of those schools look within a two-hour drive." "[Ring] Go ahead, Garcia." "There are over 100,000 kids enrolled in Maryland colleges alone, another hundred in Northern Virginia and the district." "All right, send out a photo of the victim to all the campuses." "Somebody's going to recognize him." "And, sir, I did that search through ViCAP." "Nothing in the states." "So I figured it'd be ok to cast a wider net, and I asked a brilliant ex-coworker of ours, and guess what--Emily found a single incident on Interpol." "It looked like a one-hit wonder until now." "Where?" "Berlin." "Germany?" "Germany?" "What about Germany?" "A male victim." "Come here." "Come here." "Come here." "Hotch, I gotta go." "Does Germany mean something to you?" "Dana lived there." "Yes." "Yes, it means something." "Ok, this is good." "We're getting somewhere." "Doc, when he's awake, he definitely knows what's going on." "I'd like you to get me a communication board." "I want to get him to spell some things out." "That's great." "I'll get one in here." "I'm just checking your eyes again." "The swelling's gone down." "Cranial nerves and pupil reflex looks normal, considering the trauma." "This isn't right." "What is it?" "What's wrong?" "What do you see?" "Open your eyes wide as you can." "Hello." "The doctor's gonna see if he can remove the camera." "He was blinking the whole time." "It's how he communicated, but I don't know how I didn't see this sooner." "The eye is the most confined space in the body, which means the camera's probably 3 to 4 millimeters long and difficult to see without a microscopic lens." "Is it a prosthetic eye?" "No." "It's right next to the pupil." "That must be the unidentified splinter the MRI showed." "It's an ocular nano-implant." "All right, thanks." "Garcia's searching for the transmission but it's bouncing all over the city." "They're usually controlled by cell phone, which needs to be within a specific distance, so he's close." "I know they've developed the technology, but it isn't widely known." "Actually it is, if you know who to call." "Everything's on the black market." "It's expensive but not high-tech." "Should we be looking at micro surgeons?" "There's no need." "The camera itself is smaller than the point of a needle." "That's usually how they inject it." "That's weird." "He fancied an old-fashioned technique for the lobotomy, but the camera tells us that he's technically inclined." "What about this German victim?" "How does he tie in?" "The M.E. report says that he survived the lobotomy but was later shot in the head." "Why?" "He was a test run for the current victim." "Once the theory was proved he was no longer needed." "Cruz:" "Did he install a camera in that victim's eye, too?" "Hotch:" "No." "There's something special about this guy." "Where did their paths cross?" "Garcia's compiling a list of foreign exchange students." "That should be a more manageable number." "You would think so, but D.C. has the highest concentration of exchange students in the nation, which means we're still looking at tens of thousands." "And we're also running facial recognition on student visas." "That's all good, but now what?" "We figure out why he's doing it." "[Whimpering, moaning]" "This escalation could be the unsub's message about the eyes being windows to the soul." "There's something to that." "The same genes that develop the iris also shape the frontal lobe, which influences personality." "Why is this part of his ritual now but it wasn't in Berlin?" "Well, that's unclear, but his first kill in Berlin means he has a significant connection there." "He's likely visiting the U.S. and he feels out of place." "And that may be how he connected with his victims." "He's definitely had medical training." "His German victim was a student, and the unsub may also be in those circles." "We need to check currently enrolled medical students as well as recent dropouts, both here and abroad." "Blake:" "He's clearly bright and capable." "His torture suggests he's experimenting, which could mean he's bored." "But with his intelligence comes a dark side." "And that's where his psychology and genetics come into play." "[Screaming]" "How do you know those characteristics?" "We can only speculate, but if his victims do represent him, then he's telling us that he feels lobotomized and powerless." "This could mean he was raised in a strict home or one where he didn't have a voice." "[Gasps]" "Aah!" "Aah!" "Aah..." "Do you think he was heavily medicated or institutionalized?" "Maybe." "A majority of the lobotomy patients in the 1940s were mentally ill and resided in state-run institutions." "The doctors there felt they were providing mercy to the patients, but the use of the camera tells us that this unsub wants his victims to suffer." "And the emotional torture of being left paralyzed is a kind of overkill, and that occurs when there's a personal connection between the offender and the victims." "Reid:" "He wants them to suffer, but he also wants to witness what it's like to be them." "Blake:" "He's given himself a front-row seat." "And now that he knows we're on the case, that kind of attention could cause him to escalate." "How so?" "He may want us to see what he sees." "So what did he say when you asked if there was a woman held with him?" "He didn't say a word." "The guy's brain got scrambled." "I can't imagine knowing what's going on but not being able to say anything." "I know he's only got minimal gestures, but did he give you any indication he knew her?" "Just shut his eyes, the same way he did when he realized he was paralyzed." "Well, that's definitely a sign." "An emotional one." "Well, if we say we have a missing couple and we put his photo around campuses, we might be able to figure out who she is, too." "Any word on the camera?" "Doctor's checking the x-rays now to see if he can get it out." "If it's the nano-tech I think it is, removing the piece could be dangerous for the victim." "At the very least he could lose his eye." "You've seen this stuff before." "Not quite like this, but it's used for foreign counterintelligence." "So then where did he get it?" "It's like back-alley lasik." "You're kidding me." "We should just shut his eyes." "Show's over." "Or we could play his game." "They can't take it out." "Not yet." "Or I'll die, right?" "So why don't we try to focus on something that we can control, all right?" "I'm going to point to some rows, and I want you to tell me if the letter that you need is in it." "What's your name?" "Sam." "First row." "Second row." "Third." "Yes." "Ok." "Ok, that's good." "That's good." "Yes." "Yes." ""S"?" "Ok." "What's the second letter?" ""A"." ""A"." "Ok." "S-a..." "Sam." "Sam C. I know he hasn't spelled his whole name yet, but here he is." "[Ring] What have you got, Garcia?" "Victim's name is Sam Carter, and he's a grad student at..." "Morgan:" "Johns Hopkins." "This is great, Sam." "You're doing really great." "Who is the woman that was with you?" "Dana." "Ok." "No, "D"." "No." ""D"." "Ok." "Yes." ""D"." "What's the second letter?" "Yes." ""A"." ""A"." "Ok." "D-a..." "Now the third letter." "No, second row." "Yes." "Ok." "It's "N", come on." ""N", yes." ""N"." "Ok." "D-a-n..." "Keep going, Sam." "First row." ""A"." "Sam." "The medicine's making me so drowsy." "No-- "I"?" "Dani?" "Is it Danielle?" "I meant "A", not "I"." "It's D-A-N-A." "Go up a row." "We're gonna look for all the Danis that we can." "But I need you to save your strength for this next part." "What next part?" "What now?" "We're gonna try to talk to him through you." "Just get Dana." "Don't let this happen to Dana." "Yes, yes, talk to him." "Now, are you sure that you don't know him?" "I don't know him." "I'm sure." "Ok." "Just bear with me." "Sam, the person who did this to you is challenging us, so sometimes we have to bluff." "I don't think he can hear us, but he's definitely watching." "Come on-- No, no, Sam, Sam." "Sam!" "I know you're tired." "But I need you to try and keep your eyes open." "[Screaming]" "[Crying]" "Cheese." "[Sobbing]" "Kevin, I cannot talk right now." "I'm swamped." "Do you see it?" "Yes, I saw that you sent me and email," "Morgan's everywhere." "But I can't read it right-- you gotta look." "Wait, what?" "What do you an, Morgan?" "I gotta go." "The unsub is posting us on the web." "Yeah, we're seeing it, too." "I can't shut it down." "It's going viral." "It's streaming all over the globe." "Hey, Rossi." "Ok, we got it." "Sam, close your eyes." "What?" "Why?" "What's going on?" "The unsub's posting this." "Where?" "All over the world--live." "Sam, close your eyes." "Oh, God." "[Gasping, crying out]" "You said he wanted us to see." "So why not go to the media?" "Why the Internet?" "The media edits the message." "The Internet doesn't." "He's calling our bluff." "If we know who he is, we should come and get him." "[Whimpering]" "Use that board again." "It's D-A-N-A." "Please, pick it up." "Sam, I know it's hard, but you gotta keep your eyes closed." "Just find her." "Don't let them do this to Dana." "[Dana screaming]" "[Sobbing]" "[Screaming]" "[Continues screaming and sobbing]" "Please, save me." "[Whimpers]" "Oh, God, oh, God, oh, God." "Oh, God." "Hotch:" "There's light coming from above." "Reid:" "The ceiling's low." "It could be a basement." "What's he doing?" "Taunting us." "6 locks on the inside." "He's barricading them in." "We know what he looks like." "We have not found him in any database yet." "I want all of your agents to spread out and comb a 5-mile radius from the hospital where Sam Carter was found." "All right." "Yes, sir." "I told the Director you're doing everything you can." "Do you want me to get a joint taskforce started?" "If Garcia can't shut the site down, I don't think anybody can." "If this woman dies on the Internet and we didn't do everything in our power to save her" "We've got agents who know this city best in the field." "My team is doing everything we can." "You do what you have to do." "[Sighs] This guy doesn't seem to care that we know what he looks like." "It's like he wants to get caught." "He does." "He waited till we were all watching to lobotomize this girl." "Why?" "Because he's punishing her, and he wants everyone to see it." "Morgan:" "Garcia, you can't block it?" "He's got multiple-core servers." "Come on, baby girl." "I know you can shut this thing down." "I am trying my hardest." "It is no joke." "It's a premium network bounced between Germany, Denmark, Indonesia," "Panama, and the U.S., and his firewall is hard-core." "Well, can you at least figure out the U.S. angle?" "I am trying as hard as I can." "Nothing he's doing has a sexual component, that we know of, anyway." "If he wanted to kill Sam, he had every chance to do it, but instead he let Sam go." "Both of these victims are significant to him." "It looks like he's playing a game, not just with us, but with all of them." "If it isn't sexual but still has incredible stakes to him, maybe it's familial." "I mean, he could be related to one of them." "He's not just punishing her, he's torturing her family." "He has her in a straitjacket." "What's that about?" "This message is personally specific." "She restrained and emotionally paralyzed." "She's in no condition to run away." "So those locks are to keep others out." "Because he's in another bad area." "Probably close to where he kept them before." "Garcia, we need the location of every cell tower where the signal's bouncing." "That's a lot, sir, but I'm sending them now." "What about the name Dani?" "Does it cross with Sam in any way?" "There's a Dana Harris." "It's not Dani, but he's called Dana Harris a dozen times, and she is on a student visa at Johns Hopkins, and, oh, my God, she's from Berlin." "Does she have a connection to Baltimore other than school?" "Digging..." "Yes, yes." "Her father is a partner at Strauss and Harris commercial real estate." "They specialize in converting warehouses in port cities all over they world." "They own one in Northern Baltimore." "And wouldn't you know it?" "There's a cell phone tower right by there that that signal is bouncing from." "What's the address?" "Sending it to your phones now." "[Speaking German]" "There she is." "That's definitely Dana." "I've got eyes on her." "She's getting into a white van." "Do we have cross streets?" "Not yet." "But it looks like she's in an alley." "Why would he want us to see where they're going?" "Because he's arrogant." "This is the end of his plan and we're a part of it." "Garcia, we think the unsub could be related to Sam or Dana." "The Harris family has a son, Anton, 29." "History of violent outbursts had him bouncing between boarding schools all over Europe." "While Dana stayed close to home." "How'd you know?" "He blames Dana for his rejection and abandonment issues." "It's a classic universal wound." "Left untreated and combined with the psychopathic urges, that trauma led to extreme aggression." "And a desperate need for attention." "Let me guess, Garcia-- one of the parents is a medical doctor." "Mom was before she died." "It looks like young Anton was studying to be a veterinarian." "Little sister trumped him by attending medical school at Hopkins." "He did all this to get on his parents' radar." "How long has Anton been in the states?" "A month into his 3-month visa." "He waited until Dana was away from the family before he attacked." "JJ:" "All right, we got the van." "It's parked in the alley behind Greenmount at 25th." "He's gone." "This isn't good." "All right." "Let's split up and search the building." "Cruz, come with me." "Hands where I can see them." "I will if you answer something." "It doesn't work like that." "Show me your hands." "Hands!" "Aren't you the one who's supposed to ask me why I do what I do?" "I would if I didn't already know." "You're patient, but you also take risks." "It's why you leave nothing to chance." "I wondered why you hadn't practiced on the eyes of the man you killed in Berlin." "It's because you'd already tried it on yourself." "You're recording all of this right now, because you want everyone out there to know what it's like to be you." "Maybe they'll understand." "Maybe they'll even feel sorry for you." "But they won't." "Because we've intercepted your transmission and shut it down." "Go ahead, see for yourself." "So they aren't watching me anymore." "What else is new?" "My father sent me away because I humiliated him." "He said I brought shame to our family." "Your father sent you away because you're sick and he wanted to protect Dana." "He was right." "But he couldn't stop me." "Your father's on his way." "But of course you knew that." "That's why you showed everyone your face." "You wanted him to know that you'd won." "And it worked." "But you have to admit, what I've done is extraordinary." "My father will never forget it." "Certainly Dana won't." "Or maybe she will." "Will you?" "I already have." "Cuff him." "Garcia didn't shut down his signal, did she?" "Well, he didn't know that." "I can see why they didn't want you out of the field." "Yes, sir, right away." "Get her on now!" "[Cell phone rings]" "Cruz." "Copy that." "He's driving back with us." "You're getting stronger." "I knew you would." "Can you guys hold up for a second?" "Yes, sir." "Hey, Dana." "I'm Derek." "Sam here is very happy to see you." "D-Dana." "Dr. Hoshino:" "Her vitals are strong." "I should have her back in an hour." "You want to go with her, don't you, Sam?" "Yes." "You got it." "They gonna be ok?" "Maybe." "Eventually." "Worst case of sibling rivalry I've ever seen." "Yeah." "Do you have kids?" "No." "Do you?" "Yes." "My father named me Anton because it means "invaluable."" "Do you think he ever believed that?" "Why don't you ask him?" "I will." "You sure about that?" "Absolutely." "Come on, it's not a problem." "Hotch: "Death is not the greatest loss in life." "The greatest loss is what dies inside of us while we live."" "Norman Cousins." "[Knock on door]" "Mr. Harris has diplomatic connections and wanted to have Anton extradited." "After all that he's still trying to protect him." "Tell me you didn't let that happen." "I called in a favor from the State Department." "He's being charged and tried right here." "Good." "You got a good team." "We do." "Welcome." "Thanks." "You always here this late?" "Pretty much, yeah." "Every time your name was mentioned today and every time I didn't say, hey, yeah, I know him, I'm lying." "I know it's not easy." "I don't like it either." "We're surrounded by profilers, Matt." "One side glance and they're gonna figure it all out." "Well, separating us in the field was smart." "It was the only way." "Look, I--I know why we can't tell them." "I get that, but..." "We can't have too many of these conversations either." "That case could stay open for a couple years." "It's already been almost 3." "Did you take this position because of me?" "No." "Trust me, I walked into the Hoover building this morning and was told to drive out to Quantico immediately." "So someone put this transfer on the fast track." "State?" "They wouldn't admit it if they did." "True." "This, um...us..." "We're good, right?" "Yeah." "Ok." "You want to meet at the Air and Space in the morning, run some sprints?" "I'm going to make breakfast for my boys." "Great plan." "Going home?" "Yeah." "Cruz?" "I've got some work to do." "Good night." "JJ:" "Good night." "Good night." "Cruz:" "Good night." "You good?" "Yeah." "All good." "== sync, corrected by elderman == @elder_man"

" Sweet wheels." " Right back at you, dawg." "Love the smell of the day before Christmas in the morning." "There's just nothing quite like the sweet scent of desperate last-minute shoppers in the air." " Jack our prices up 10 percent?" " 15." "Snooze, you lose." "We'll rob them blind." " Merry Christmas!" " Merry Christmas!" "[BOTH LAUGH]" "[DOORBELLS CHIME]" "Hey, sure is quiet around here." "Bad guys taking a holiday too?" "Not that I mind, by the way." "Because the Intersect could certainly use some down time as well." "Speaking of which, we have a cover date tomorrow." "Christmas at the Bartowskis'." "Oh, uh, thanks for the invitation, Chuck." "But I don't do Christmas." "[CHUCKLES]" "I'm sorry, I think you just said you don't do Christmas." "Look, I would rather not get into it." "But it's Christmas." "Look, I'm not buying the whole Scrooge act." "Okay?" "Underneath that spy cover is a regular person just like the rest of us." "I mean, honestly, how weird could Christmas have been for you?" "Christmas at the Burton household meant the annual Salvation Army con job." "Okay, well, it's a..." "Okay, you're a little different than the rest of us." "But Christmas at the Bartowskis' means eggnog, p.j.'s a fake gas fire place, and that's right, Twilight Zone marathons." "I'm not taking no for an answer, Walker." "So prepare to be heart-warmed." "[CHUCKLES]" "Oh, thank God you're here, Chuck." "Thank God." "Anna won't speak to me after I balked at the whole moving-in-together thing." "She thinks you're immature, afraid to grow up and be an adult?" "Exactly, yeah, exactly." "And that's ridiculous." "Do I not look like an adult to you?"

"What am I gonna do, Chuck?" "They're gonna put me in jail, aren't they?" "No." "No, maybe not." "Maybe not, you know?" "Uh, I mean, you haven't hurt anyone yet, right?"

"[SCOFFS]" "Okay, then you and I are gonna have to work through this ourselves." " Tell me, is there anyone hurt in there?" " No, nobody's hurt, everybody's okay." "Uh, Ned..." "Uh, is it okay if I call you, Ned?" " Sure, Ned's fine." "CHUCK:" "Okay." "Uh, Ned explicitly told me that he wants absolutely no trouble." "Tell him to send out a hostage as a sign of good faith." "He says that you should send out a hostage as a sign of good faith." "Good God, pick me, pick me, pick me." "Pick me." "Oh, sorry." "My 86-year-old mother is dying of a very rare disease." "It's leukoplakia." "And she needs me, her bo-bo." "Uh, okay, fine, send him." "Oh, thank you, thank you." "Oh, ho, ho." "Can I give you...?" "[EMMETT SIGHS]" "Oh, thank you, thank you." "Thank you." "We're sending someone out." "We got one hostage coming out, folks." "That scoundrel." "I bet Bartowski worked out a deal." "Yeah, Chuck let Emmett go so he could get better lunch shifts." "He's selling us down the river." "Making a sweetheart deal for himself." "Guess it's prison rules now." "Every man for himself." "EMMETT:" "Aah!" "Oh, my God." "Oh." "Who's got a phone?" "Who's got a phone?" "I need to call my lawyer, my therapist." "I need to call my mother, and I need to call my yogi." "Maureen Mitsubishi continuing to cover the story at the Burbank Buy More where it seems a hostage has just been released." "I'm Lieutenant Mauser, L.A.P.D. Who are you?" "I'm the assistant manager, Emmett Milbarge." " Hmm." " That's two T's, two M's..." "Tell me, tell me, Emmett, uh, what's going on inside there?" "What's going on inside is the greatest sales event of the season." "That's right." "We have got the best deals in town on all your electronic needs." "MAUSER [ON TV]:" "No, no, no, Emmett, I meant the perp." "Is he dangerous?" "EMMETT [ON TV]:" "Oh, ha-ha-ha." "Dangerous?" "The only thing dangerous is how low we have slashed our prices." "God bless that man." "Uh, so, uh..." "Hey, Chuck, where are these people that can get me out of this?" "[DOOR CLICKS]" "Um..." "They're, uh, closer than you think." "Can I use the bathroom?" "I mean, the store's already locked down." "So I can't really go anywhere." "Hey, yeah." "Sure, of course." "All right, well, be back in a sec." "About time the cavalry showed up." "So, what's the plan?" "Lock you in the Castle until this is over." "Come on." "Whoa, hey, what about Ellie, Morgan, everyone else?" "We're instructed to remove you and only you." "There's a team coming to extract the rest." " They'll be in good hands." " I'm not gonna leave my sister." "There are rules, and we have to follow them." "Let's go." "There are rules, but there's a time to break them." "Get in the hatch, Bartowski." "Your emotions cloud your judgment." "Nothing bad will happen." " Now, please, come on." " I can't take that chance." "NED:" "Chuck, is that you?" "[WHISPERS] Shut it, shut it." " Aah!" " No, no, no, Ned." "Chuck, what's going on?" "Ned, please, please, don't shoot that gun." " Who are they?" " They're harmless, okay?" "Look, they heard your crash, and they hid." "This is Sarah." " Hi." " Hi." "And this is John Casey." "Who's even more harmless." " John Casey." " Ned, please, just uncock the gun." "Okay." "Uh, how do I do that?" "Because, uh, truth is I've never used one of these before." " There's probably a button, like a safety." " No, no, no!" "[GUNSHOT]" "Oh, my God, Chuck." "We have gunfire." "I repeat, we hear gunfire." "NED:" "Oh, my God!" " Oh!" " I'm so sorry." "I'm so sorry, are you okay?" " Ah." "I didn't mean to shoot you." "I promise." "We need a SWAT team down here pronto." "It's okay, everyone." "It was a mistake." "An accidental shooting." "But Casey is gonna be just fine." "Idiot." "You owe me a toe, Bartowski." "[LAUGHS]" "DEVON:" "There." "You're gonna be okay, John." "A lot of people get by with nine toes." " I'm getting by fine with eight." " How much is a toe worth to Casey?" " Why?" " Maybe there's a finder's fee." "[WHISPERS] You know, I survived three wars without so much as losing a finger nail before I met you." "Look, I'm really sorry about your toe, John." "But I had the situation under control." "You're the one who scared him." " You okay?" " I'm just scared." "I've never been this close to a gun before." "Yeah, me neither." "You know what, we'll be okay." "We just have to stick together." "Big Mike, Morgan, Jeff, Lester." "Come here, get over here." "I don't know about you guys, but I've had enough." "We need to take him out before anyone else gets hurt." "He's right." "The store closes at midnight." "We got lots of merchandise to move." "Fellas, I don't know, man." "Time to be a man, Morgan." "Yeah, I'll do it, I'm in." " So am I. CHUCK:" "Wait, hold on, wait." "This is a very bad idea, okay?" "Ned shot Casey on accident." "He's not trying to hurt anybody." " Let the police handle this." " Let the cops handle this." "I know you guys work at a Buy More, but I'm a doctor." "Okay, I take risks every day." "This is a matter of life or death." "Someone needs to man up and take action." "Someone needs to be a hero." "No, they don't, Devon." "Being a hero is being alive to take care of your friends and family." "[PHONE RINGING]" "Chuck, Chuck." " They keep calling, you better answer it." "CHUCK:" "Yeah, coming." "Don't do anything, do nothing." "I will be right back." "Hey, hey, I, uh, feel terrible about shooting your friend's toe off." "No, no, no, that's okay." "Sometimes I feel like shooting him myself." " This is Chuck." " Okay, okay, talk to me, Chuck." "We heard gunfire, what's going on?" "Everything's under control." "Everything is just fine." "There was an accidental shot fired." "Someone lost the majority of their toe, but besides that, everything's okay." "[GRUMBLES]" " I wanna talk to him now." " He wants to talk to you." "Huh?" "Well, ask him what he wants." "MAUSER:" "I wanna know his demands." "He wants to know what your demands are." "I don't know." "Uh, I have to think about it." " Can you call back in like five minutes?" " Yeah, yeah." "So, uh, what are you gonna do, Ned?" "Well, maybe I should call my wife." "She always knows what to do in these situations." "Yeah, that's a great idea." "Maybe you could let everyone else make a call too." "Check in with their loved ones." "Let them know that they're safe." "Okay, Chuck." "Yeah." "Hi, honey." "It's me." "Uh, I'm okay." "Look, uh, I know this is gonna sound bad, but..." " Hey, Mom and Dad." " Hi, guys." "Yeah, everything's awesome." "Well, not really, but we'll be okay." "[PHONE RINGS ON LINE]" "WOMAN [ON RECORDING]:" "Hi there, you've reached the love chat line." "Looking to chat with someone special?" "Press 1." "[BEEPS]" "MAN [OVER PHONE]:" "Lompoc correctional institute." "Yes, I'd like to speak to prisoner 27318." "A.k.a. Mom." " Hey, baby." " Save your breath, Morgan." "Hey, Big Mike." "How you holding up in there, partner?" "Surviving, partner." "Any shoppers lining up out there?" "Mother?" "Johnny boy." "[CELL PHONE RINGING]" "Hi, Chuck." " Where are you?" "CHUCK [OVER PHONE]:" "D VD's." "I'm in the romantic-comedy section." "Although for irony's sake, I suppose I should probably be in hostage-thrillers." "[BEEPS]" "So, uh, Ned let everyone call their loved ones." "That was pretty smart to call me." "Protect our cover." "Yeah, well, you are my girlfriend." "Sort of." "So does that mean your offer still stands for Christmas?" "See, I knew you could be heart-warmed." "[CHUCK CHUCKLES]" "I actually, um..." "I have something for you." "I was gonna give it to you tomorrow but considering the circumstances, I kind of wanna give it to you today." "Chuck, we're gonna get out of here." "We'll be fine, I promise." "Wow." "Ha, ha." "That's beautiful." "It's good luck." "It was my mom's charm bracelet." "My dad gave it to her when Ellie was born." "Oh, Chuck, I can't take this." "This is something real." "Something that you should give to a real girlfriend." "I know." "[PHONE RINGING]" "Chuck." "Duty calls." " Hey, this is Chuck." " Chuck, what does he want?" "It's Lieutenant Mauser." "He wants to know what you want." "I wanna go home and spend Christmas with my family." "All right, tell him I'm coming in, Chuck." "I'm unarmed." "I just wanna talk so we can get him and everybody else home for Christmas." "Okay." "Okay, all right, yeah, I'm gonna come open the door right now." "[PANEL BEEPING]" "[DOOR SHUTS]" "I'm completely unarmed, Ned." "Just wanna talk this out." "Chuck, you come back over here." " Okay, I don't wanna go to jail." " It's okay." "We're gonna work on that." "But in the meantime, what do you say you and I make a trade, okay?" "Me, for two of your hostages." "It would make people out there feel a whole lot easier." "Yeah, in here too." "Okay, okay." " Two people can go." " Okay, good, good." "Um, what do you say we start with the injured man?" "He looks like he needs medical attention." "I'm fine, I'm good." " Let Ellie go." " No, no, Casey." "Thank you, but you need to go, your toe could be infected." "Chuck, you've been a good friend to me." "So I'm gonna return the favor." "I'm gonna let your girlfriend go." "No!" "Chuck?" " Ouch." " Yikes." "Gonna be a cold Christmas at the Bartowski's." "Oh, no, he didn't." "Heh, I didn't..." "I don't..." "I don't mean I don't want my girlfriend to leave because clearly I would really like for Sarah to leave and be out of harm's way." "That's not what I'm saying, what I'm saying is that..." "I'm not your only friend here, Ned." "You've endeared yourself into the hearts of everyone here." "I think we're all friends." "We're a family, we've gone through a lot, haven't we?" "So we should all leave, why don't we all leave together?" " No, just those two." " Okay." "[CASEY GROANS]" "[WHISPERS] Our team just arrived." "Don't do anything stupid." "Maybe the rest of us can get out of here without losing an appendage." "Uh, Chuck, it's okay." "[SIGHS]" "[WHISPERS] Trust me, I'll never let anyone hurt you." "Okay." "[SIGHS]" "[HELICOPTER WHIRRING]" "[DOOR SHUTS]" " Good to finally meet you face to face." " Yeah." "Did a hell of job." "Pretty impressive for a retail jockey." "I just want all this over as soon as possible." "Well, so do I, Chuck." "So do I." "Hey, don't worry about it, buddy." "I'm a pro." "Everything is gonna be just fine, okay?" "Wait, wait, wait." "Chuck, look, you did a good job, but I'll take it from here, okay?" "Yeah, but you know what?" "Um, Ned is really uptight." "So maybe I should go over there and tell him that you're taking over." "Kind of put him at ease so he doesn't get upset." " You've developed a little trust, did you?" " Yeah." "Okay, well, yeah." "Good idea." "Go..." "Good." "Ned, you have to listen to me very carefully." "This guy Mauser, he's no good." "He's not a good guy." " We cannot trust him." " Why not?" "We've to let everybody out of the store right now." "Well, if I let everyone out, then I won't have bargaining chips." "I can't go to jail, Chuck." "Okay, the people I was talking about, the people that can help?" "They work for the government, see?" "They'll protect me." "That's the only bargaining chip that you need." "You have to trust me." "You need to let everyone go." "I haven't let you down yet, have I?" "Thanks, Chuck." "I'll take it from here." "Okay, okay." "Well, Ned?" "It's time the rubber hits the road." "What do you say we make a deal?" "Hmm?" "[ALL SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY]" "OFFICER:" "Here you go, sir." " Hey, no, that's okay, that's okay." " You need medical attention." " No, I'm fine, let's end this." "How's it look in there?" "He seemed to calm down after he talked to his wife." "Yeah, where is she?" "I mean, you didn't bring her down here?" "Wife, what wife?" "There's no record of Ned being married." "He's right." "There's no record of him being married." "We saw him make a call, trace it and see if we can find out who he's speaking to." "DEVON:" "Look, boys." "This guy is tired and frazzled." "I say we take him out." "Anyone else play ball in college?" " Linebacker." " I did not." "I played "Madden" on PlayStation 3, does that count?" "Be bold, Morgan." " All right, I'm in." " All right." "Listen up, it's called the picket fence." "Big Mike and I'll be the flanks, all right?" "Morgan, you're the sacrificial lamb." "Jeff, Lester, coming up from behind." "Why are we coming from behind?" "It seems awkward." " I need everybody..." " Hey, hey, what are you doing?" "Well, we're taking this guy out." "You in?" "No, and neither are you." "This situation's way too dangerous." "Please, Devon." "If you love Ellie, don't do this." "Okay, Chuck." "You win." "Chuck, can I talk to you a minute?" "[SIGHS]" "Remember, don't be awesome." "Hey." "Well, Chuck." "Looks like Ned and I worked the whole thing out." "That's great." "I'll just go tell everybody that we can leave." "No, no, no, not just yet, but soon." "First you and I need to work something out on our own." "I don't understand." "You see, Fulcrum knows John Casey's NSA." "Person he called is in the Buy More now." "MAUSER:" "The, uh, yogurt girl's CIA." "Oh, my God." "Chuck." "MAUSER:" "We've lost agents to these two." "We knew they were here protecting someone, we didn't know who." "So we caused a little ruckus." "Sent Ned inside to see who they would rush to protect." "Turns out they're protecting you." "[CHUCKLES]" "I have no idea what you're talking about, lieutenant." "Do you see, uh, Ned over there?" "I'd hate to see him shoot your pretty little sister if he thought you were not cooperating with me." "Look, um, I'm just an analyst." "Okay, please, don't hurt anyone." "Chuck, you're way more than just an analyst." "We did a background check on you." "Turns out you were college roommates with Bryce Larkin." "The same Bryce Larkin that stole the Intersect from us." " Bryce Larkin is dead." " And I'm done negotiating." "[GUN COCKS]" "Wait, wait, wait, stop him." "Stop him, please stop him." "What do you want?" "I wanna know where Bryce Larkin and the Intersect are." "And if I think you're lying, even a little bit, your sister dies." "Where's Bryce Larkin?" " I don't know." " Then I'm really sorry." "But I know where the Intersect is." "Where?" "It's right here." "All right, Chuck, this is how it's gonna play out." "Ned's gonna release another hostage." "You." "Then you and I are gonna go out and get into an ambulance which will take you to a secure Fulcrum facility." "Where you'll stay." "I'm never gonna see my sister again, am I?" "No." "Well, then, would you mind if I said goodbye to her, please?" "Okay." "But if you say or do anything to call attention to me or your situation Ned's gonna shoot her, capiche?" "Yeah." "Oh, good, good." "Go ahead." " They're letting me go." " Oh, thank God." "[LAUGHS]" "[SIGHS]" "Goodbye, Ellie." "You know how much I love you, right?" "Hey, hey, ha-ha-ha, cheer up." "It will be okay." "You're acting like you're never gonna see me again, it's okay." "See you in a bit, Chuck." "Listen, there's a time to be brave and a time to be timid." "This is the time to be brave." "Do it." "Right on, bro." "MAUREEN:" "Sir, sir, over here, can we get a statement, sir?" "Maureen Mitsubishi back at the Buy More where apparently another hostage has just been released." "We're not sure of his identity, but he does appear to be unharmed." "Fulcrum's got Chuck." " Everybody ready?" " Yeah." "Hands in." "[IN UNISON] Break." "Oh, I hope they're not doing anything risky." "Morgan's with them." "Trust me, you've got nothing to worry about." "[SCREAMING]" "ELLIE:" "Oh." "CASEY:" "Go, go, go." "[BOTH PANTING]" "They're getting away with Chuck." "[CASEY GRUNTS]" "[PANTING]" "MAUSER:" "Get back here!" "He's breathing, he's fine." "That was really stupid, Devon." "Well, at least he's not afraid to take risks, like Morgan." "Finally, this is getting interesting." "Okay, who's next?" "You?" "[SHOUTS]" "[MIKE GRUNTS]" "[GUN COCKS]" "MORGAN:" "Anna, did you see that?" "Lester, are you okay?" "[WHIMPERS]" "That was so brave." "In times of crisis, a man needs to step up." "Come on, be a man." "I think they say." "[SHOUTS]" " Lieutenant Mauser's Fulcrum, so is Ned." " I know." " Everyone in the store is in danger." " Our team's moving in now." "I need you to run back as fast as you can to the Castle." " I can't leave you alone." " Your safety's more important." "Now, leave and don't turn back." "Go." "Go." "[GRUNTING AND SHOUTING]" "[GROANS]" "[CHUCKLES]" "[GUN COCKS]" "[SIGHS]" "You may have beaten me, Agent Walker, but Fulcrum's won." "I know Chuck Bartowski's the Intersect." "Chuck's secret is safe." "And you're going straight to a CIA detention facility never to be seen or heard from again." "Well, you go right ahead, Agent Walker." "Arrest me." "[SIGHS]" "But say goodbye to Chuck." "You see, I'm not like those other Fulcrum agents." "They'll do whatever it takes to find me." "And when they do every Fulcrum agent we have is gonna know Chuck's the Intersect." "It's gonna be the end of his pathetic existence." "So take me in, Agent Walker." "I'm ready to go." "[GRUNTS]" " How you doing?" " Okay." "I thought I was gonna lose you there for a minute." "Ha-ha-ha." "It was hell, but I survived." " Hey, you hungry?" " I could eat." "DEVON:" "Ellie." "I thought you'd like to know that I cancelled my trip." "Are you sure?" "I thought you needed more excitement." "I've had all the excitement I need, honey." " Thanks." " For what?" "Staying with me." "I would've been alone tonight." "Mm, me too." "Gross." "[CHUCKLES]" "Chuck." "[CHUCK SIGHS]" "SARAH:" "Mm." "It's okay, you're safe." "I got the Fulcrum agent." " What happened to him?" " I arrested him." "Casey's taking him to a secure facility as we speak." "It's okay, he's gonna go to jail." "He'll never bother you again." "DEVON:" "Merry Christmas, guys." "SARAH:" "Merry Christmas." "ELLIE:" "Merry Christmas, ha-ha-ha." "Merry Christmas, Chuck." "It's not gonna be one we're gonna forget soon, ha, ha." "Yeah." "ELLIE:" "Oh, that looks fantastic on you." " Thank you, ha, ha." "ELLIE:" "I'm so glad that it fit." " Yeah, me too." "Let me ask you something." "What do you do when you see your girlfriend do something so horrific it gets permanently burned into your brain?" "[MORGAN SCOFFS]" "I don't know, buddy." "But I know exactly what you mean." "[ENGLISH SDH]"

" Never get tired of this sight." " You and me both." " Where's number three?" "McMannis." " Yeah?" "We have a loose one." "I can't take much more of this!" "It's driving us crazy!" "Where's Taylor?" " Maybe she got lucky and escaped." " They're coming." "Oh, my God." "Tell me you did not just wave at me, Vance." "You call yourself a supermodel?" "Right now, the only thing you are super at is looking like an idiot on TV!" "I count two of you." "Where is little princess number three?" "Oh, my God." "The next award to be presented is the Meritorious Civilian Service Medal." "Would Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs please step forward." " She went with the elf cut?" " lt's called the Pixie." " l think she looks terrific." " Where's Gibbs?" "In all the years I've known him, he's never once turned up for an award ceremony." "Even if he's the one receiving, Ducky?" "Especially if he's the one receiving it." "Special Agent Gibbs?" "Told you he wouldn't show." "Pay up." " Got change for a 20?" " No." " Nice haircut." " Where the hell is he, DiNozzo?" " He's working on a case." " What case?" "The one that's preventing him from being here." "I'll take that for him, though. I..." "Accepting for Special Agent Gibbs is Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo." "She's pretty." "I like to think that I'm the Michael Douglas to his Karl Malden, on the streets of D.C." "Thank you, everybody." "That concludes our award ceremony." " Thank you." " Gibbs thanks you." "Thank you." "is this on?" "I have a speech. I didn't-- l wrote a whole..." "Whole thing." "Gibbs." "Where are you?" "I'm right behind you." "I really hate it when you do that." "Tony has your award." "He can keep it." "Some things never change, do they, Jethro?" "Depends on your definition of change." "My definition?" "I expect you to be there the next time I'm handing you an award." "DiNozzo didn't tell you?" "I'm working a case." " Alone in my office?" " lt's high-profile, Jen." "I thought you'd wanna hear about it before it hits the news." " l'm listening." " Well..." " There's a dead celebrity at Quantico." " Who?" " Some woman named Taylor Shane." " The supermodel?" "Found her hanging from an OCS security fence this morning." " Then why aren't you there?" " l just got the call five minutes ago." "Oh, and the award ceremony started 30 minutes ago." "Well, I like to get a head start on things. I'll keep you informed." "Jethro, the press is gonna be all over this one." "I'd appreciate it if you could go easy on them." "Telling me how to do my job, director?" "No, just reiterating your previous point." " Which was...?" " l know you." "Break out the gear." "Boot Camp Babes is a real TV show?" "Reality TV at its finest." "Three hot, rich babes" " learning what's truly important in life." " Defending their country." "No, firing machine guns while wearing bikinis." "Think I like your reason better, Ziva." "Your Marine Corps would actually allow these models to serve?" "Well, they're not joining for real." "It's a stunt." "It's kind of like The Simple Life." " The Simple Life?" " Yeah, that show about Paris Hilton." "I've never heard of it." "But I've been there a few times." "I wouldn't mind spending a night there myself." "Oh, you have no idea." "I often dream about it." "Really?" "What?" "Just trying to picture Paris and you together." "Don't get your hopes up." "I'm not attracted to blonds." "This is bad." "Gibbs is gonna go completely and utterly ape" "What is the official word on Taylor Shane's cause of death?" " Like I said, I just got here." " What condition was her body in?" " l just got here. I haven't" " What about the other girls?" "How are the other girls handling it?" "How are they handling it?" " Okay, that's it. interview's over." " l'm sorry. lt was an accident." "I don't care." " Sergeant, secure the area." " Special Agent Gibbs." "Wow, she really was beautiful." "She still is, Mr. Palmer." "She's been dead at least five hours, Jethro." "I'm more interested in how she got that way, Duck." "Well, her body is covered with these lacerations." "None of them appear to be fatal." "We'll know more when we get her back." "I'll just go get the gurney now." " Who moved the body?" " l did, sir." "Didn't think it was right, them taking pictures of Taylor hanging on the wire." "You have any crime-scene experience, Staff Sergeant McMannis?" "No, sir." "But I do have public-affairs experience." "Photos like that aren't why the Corps agreed to support this show." " You the liaison?" " Yes, sir." "We've been trying to contact the producer, Thomas Crawley." "He doesn't know anything about this yet." " How'd she get up there?" " Looked like she was trying to climb." "But that doesn't make any sense, sir." "If she wanted off the show, all she had to do was ask." "It's not like this is a real boot camp." "McGee, photos." "Ziva, interview the rest of the models." "DiNozzo" "Boss, I'm pretty familiar with the show." "Maybe I should interview them." "That would work for me." "I hate models." "That so?" "McGee, help Ziva. interview them." "Any other suggestions, DiNozzo?" " No, I think I got it." " Good." "I'm gonna need to see all the footage that you shot on this." "You got it, sir." "Postproduction office is right over here." "Do you want me to get their autographs, Tony?" "Hey, probie." "See if you can get them to sign it to "the Big D."" "What was she doing out there, Hannah?" "Probably just looking for a bigger story line." " What?" " Think about it, Nat." "The big escape?" "Would've made some great TV." "Unfortunately, it did." "Special Agent McGee, Officer David, NClS." "We would like to ask you a few questions." " ln private, please." " Okay." "Let's go." "When was the last time you saw Ms. Shane?" " Lights out." " Time?" "Around 1 0:30." "Do you really believe she did this as a stunt?" "I don't know." "Taylor would do anything for more camera time." "Hannah, she's dead, okay?" "Stop being a bitch." "The cameras are off, Natalie." "You can stop pretending you cared about her." "You didn't get along." "We're supermodels, honey." "We don't have to get along." "On the show, you three seem like such good friends." "They shoot us 24 hours a day, Agent McGee." "You only get to see 23 minutes of it." "Just about done here." "Thought I'd check on the team." "You're riding with the body." "Make sure those reporters don't follow you back." " How am I supposed to--?" " lmprovise." " Give me the keys. I'm driving." " Tony." "Thanks, Ducky." "Anything else we can help you with?" "Maybe some hair tips for your girlfriend here?" "No, I think that about covers it." "But if you can remember anything else that might help, please give us a call." "It's called a business card." "Maybe you can have one of the Marines read it to you." "No bones broken, no major arteries severed." "And take a look at the tox screen." "No, her death was not the result of tangling with the razor wire." " Phencyclidine." "Angel dust." " Yeah." "An overdose of PCP drove that poor girl flailing into that fence." "She had a seizure, fell into a coma and died." " Accidental overdose, Duck?" " l doubt it." "She had enough PCP in her system to kill a small water buffalo." " Water buffalo?" " l tire of saying "small horse."" "I'm afraid our young model might have committed suicide." " We don't investigate suicides, Duck." " No." " We don't investigate suicides?" " Technically, no." "But even the most obvious suicide is investigated by NClS as a murder." "On a Marine base surrounded by cameras?" "Yes." "The stuff good mysteries are made of, Mr. Palmer." "The incident shocked the entertainment industry and the nation." "The sudden and gruesome death of supermodel and recent reality star Taylor Shane." "The 25-year-old was found at approximately 6: 1 0 yesterday morning hanging atop a barrier fence at the Quantico Marine Base." "Shane was at Quantico participating in hit reality show Boot Camp Babes." "I'll just fast-forward to the good part." "Special Agent Gibbs, is the Marine Corps attempting to cover up" " how Taylor Shane died?" " Interview's over." " But people have a right to know." " l don't care." "What were you thinking?" "Give me a break, Jen." "I wasn't even asked that question." "You're saying they did a hatchet job on you?" "Yeah." "Are you saying you don't believe me?" "You were wrong the other day." "Some things do change." "Part of our job is to make sure that they don't creatively edit our interviews." "No, that's maybe your job, director." "My job is to catch dirtbags." "The Marine Corps does not need any more bad publicity at this moment." "Supporting something called Boot Camp Babes?" "What did they think was gonna happen?" "The intention of the show was to represent that the Marines could be a life-changing experience." "Maybe in season two." "Are we done here yet?" "I have a dead girl downstairs and an investigation to run." "I've got an entire agency to run, and sound bites like these do not help when the budget's under review, or maybe you'd like to go back to the days when we had to buy our own ammo to train on the range?" "You want me to help fix this?" "Then get me that reporter's number." "You're going to apologise?" "No." "Ask her to dinner." "There's Ducky." "Ducky looks good." "There's the autopsy gremlin." "There it is." "Right there." "That's my jacket." "Oh, that's McGee's jacket." "I didn't make a single broadcast." "I wish I could say the same." "The camera must've added about ten pounds to me." "Actually, that was your refrigerator, probie." "You think Gibbs watched the news last night?" "I know the director did." "He's been up in her office for the past half an hour." "Anyone else think they were more than just partners back in the day?" "Hi, boss." "We're just talking about Cagney Lacey." "It's a real good show." " What do we got?" " Taylor Shane checked into the Los Angeles Better Health Center in August of '02 and then again in May of '03." "Publicist said it was an eating disorder." "But the truth is it was heroin, cocaine and" " PCP." " Bingo, boss." "Friends have given several interviews over the years." "They blame her drug problem mostly on the boyfriend, Noah Keller," " son of Marshall Keller." " That guy owns half of Manhattan." "His kids are loaded too." "Well, this kid was arrested for possession of illegal narcotics three times in the last five years." "Twice for cocaine, once for PCP." " Find him." " Already on it." "That executive show guy, Crawley, he got back last night?" " The term is executive producer." " Whatever. interview him." "I wanna know how this girl did a fistful of PCP in the middle of his reality show." "That guy dates supermodels?" "They're shallow, he's wealthy." "It's a perfect match." "Isn't your family wealthy?" "That's different." " Why?" " My dad cut me off when I was 1 2." "I had to earn all my dates the old-fashioned way." "Begging?" "Abs, got some good news for you." "I talked to the director." "Your new assistant starts Monday." "No, Gibbs." "No." "I can't go through that again, that" " That is so not funny." " No?" " No." " lt was to me, kind of." "Here you go." "Where are we?" "Well, I know why no one heard Taylor screaming when she was in the wire the other night." "Two 300-car trains passed by OCS the same time she died." "I doubt anyone could've heard anything." " You on a new diet, Abs?" " No." "According to Ducky, there were no signs of intravenous drug use on the body," " and no traces of PCP in the lungs." " She took it orally." "But there were also no traces of the binders and chemicals you would find when something's taken by pill." " l guess that's what all this is about." " You'd be guessing right." "There were traces of PCP in her stomach." "There was also dextrose, ferrous sulfate, riboflavin and other chemicals consistent with these delectable pastries." " Which one?" " l've been trying to find out." "It's kind of fun." "It reminds me of Bill Nye." " Who?" " Bill Nye, the Science Guy." " Wacky scientist with a kid's show?" " Oh, it's like Mr. Wizard." "Who?" " Never mind." " So anyways, Bill Nye did an episode where he broke down the molecular structure of junk food." "Same thing I did today, only Bill Nye was trying to get kids to eat healthier, and his pastries weren't laced with PCP." " Although Bill Nye once" " Abby, the case?" "Two things I know." "One, I like cream filling." "And two, her last meal was this." "I think we're looking at death by Klowny Kake." "That's good work, Abs." "Taylor got along with everyone, Hannah." "Everyone but you." "Your point is, staff sergeant?" "She committed suicide for a reason." "I wanna know why." "How the hell would I know?" "You've been abusing her on and off camera for the past two months." "Oh, so it's my fault she decided to off herself?" "I wanna know what happened in this room last night." "Well, let's see." "I went to bed." "Natalie probably snuck off two or three times to the bathroom to throw up." "And Taylor, well, she apparently decided to hang herself from a barbed-wire fence." "Anything else I can help you with, staff sergeant?" "You're a real piece of work, Bressling." "Get out of my sight." "I'll see you at the pull-up bars." "With pleasure." "is this a bad time, staff sergeant?" "No, ma'am. I'm just counting the days till this reality show is off of my base." "We need to speak with Thomas Crawley." "So do I, sir." "He's asked not to be disturbed." "A girl died from a drug overdose while taping the show." "Disturbing him is not our primary concern." "Taylor overdosed?" " On what?" " PCP." "A lot of it." "That's why she tried to climb that fence?" "She was on drugs?" "She was most likely delusional." "Perhaps she thought someone was chasing her." "You know how she got the drugs, staff sergeant?" "No, sir. I know she had some problems in the past, but if anything, she was anti-drugs." "Hell, she wouldn't even take an aspirin." " Where's Crawley, staff sergeant?" " His office. lt's just outside that door." "Mr. Crawley." "Mr. Crawley." "I'm sorry." "Please." "I was thinking about my daughter." "Her death just..." "Taylor Shane was your daughter?" "I became her legal guardian when she was 1 5." "We've been through a lot together, but" "Were you aware that she had a drug problem?" "Taylor's been clean and sober for over two years now." " She OD'd on PCP." " No, no." "There's no way." "She would never go through that again." "Statistically, addicts fall back in times of stress." "Meaning Marine boot camp probably wasn't the best environment for her." "This entire reality series was Taylor's idea." "I've never seen her happier." "She loved it here." " How did she get the drugs?" " She didn't." "The whole point of the show was to show that she wasn't that girl anymore." "Well, I'd say it backfired." "Large time." "It's "bigtime."" "Get up!" "Let's go." "Move." "Come on, show me what you're made of." "Come on, now." "Just two more." "I can't do any more." "What did I tell you about the word "can't," Bressling?" "Taylor's the only one who took any of this Marine stuff seriously." "But you knew that, right, sarge?" " Get the cameras out of here." " Yes, sir." "Pack it up, guys." "Was he here?" "Answer me, Hannah." "You're hurting her arm, sir." "My daughter's dead, staff sergeant." "If she's responsible, I'll do more than that." "Hey, no one's doing anything around here but calming down." " Who is "he"?" " Noah Keller, Taylor's ex." " Noah Keller, he was here?" " Couple of days ago." "Big deal." " Did you know this?" " No, sir." "Staff sergeant, can you take Mr. Crawley for a walk?" "We need to talk to the girls alone." " You need to let NClS handle this." " l'll talk to you when they're done." "We'll be here, Tom." "We don't wrap for another three days." " ls that Berry Mango Madness?" " Yes." "We haven't had anything but Marine food since we got here." " l'll give you 1 00 bucks for it." " lt's not for sale." "It's free." "Just like love." "You know, I'm a big fan of the show." "You guys are really beautiful and great." " The show is excellent." " Thanks, cutie." "Why didn't you tell me that Taylor's boyfriend had visited her?" "She made us promise not to say anything." "Well, you know, she's dead, so I don't think she'll mind." "You saw the way Tom reacted." "He hates Noah." "He blames him for Taylor's drug habit." "Was she using while she was here?" "Considering we're in a Marine boot camp?" "No." "None of us have used any drugs." "Noah just came to talk to her." "They were having some relationship problems." "Taylor thought he was using again." " What?" " Well, it just makes sense." "Someone gave her enough PCP to kill the three of you." "When was the last time you heard from Mr. Keller?" " Hang up the phone, McGee." " Boss, I got Noah Keller's accountant." "He's at the Cranston Motel in Triangle, Virginia, right outside the main gate of Quantico." " How'd you track him down?" " l got a call from the president." "His Amex records were in the fax machine, McGee." " Come on." " l specifically told her to e-mail those." "Millions of dollars, a supermodel girlfriend, and this is where he stays." "Well, he showed up in style." " l would've rather slept in the car." " That one." " Yeah, Gibbs." " Boss." "Noah Keller was in Quantico the day before Taylor Shane died." "Yeah. I see him now, DiNozzo." "Don't bother, McGee." "A young person's death is never easy, McGee." "But two in 24 hours, and both self-inflicted." "Well, that's..." " ...tragic." " He got off easy, Duck." "The drugs he gave his girlfriend had her thrashing herself to death in a barbed-wire fence." "These people can have everything, and this is how they end up?" "Well, wealth and fame have often gone hand in hand with fatal addiction." " Edgar Allen Poe, Keith Moon." " Kurt Cobain." "Yeah, the list goes on and on." "No, this one's been dead about 24 hours, Jethro." "Well, that means he offed himself the same night his girlfriend OD'd." "The froth around the mouth suggests a breakdown of the nervous system." "PCP?" "Yeah, possible, but not probable." "Look." "Pinpoint pupils, blue discoloration around the fingernails." "No, I'd say his death was the result of diacetylmorphine." "Heroin?" " Yeah." " l would say you're right, Ducky." "That a suicide note?" "Not exactly." ""lt's time for us to realise that this just isn't meant to be." "Please know that it was never my intention to hurt you." "I will always remember the great times we've had."" "This is a Dear John letter." "Postmarked six days ago from Quantico post office." "Handwriting checks out." "Taylor Shane sent it." "Yeah." "Noah Keller came by to chat about it." "Very Romeo and Juliet." "Except for the part where he feeds her a toxic Klowny Kake and offs himself." "This must've been a very difficult letter for her to write." "Probably harder for him to read." "No one likes getting dumped by postal express." "Maybe he didn't listen." "Relationships change." "Some people don't know when to let go." "I have to brief the C.G. of Quantico first thing in the morning on this, and I'd like you to be there when I do that." "Negative, Jen." "All we have is circumstantial evidence so far." "We don't even have anything to tie the two deaths together yet." "I can't call the general and tell him we have nothing." "You can always write him a letter." "Abby." "Abs?" "They're for you." "They're really black." " Really, really black." " lt's pretty cool, huh?" "Yeah." " "Get well soon"?" " They didn't have a card that said:" ""Sorry I almost sent you to prison" at the flower shop." "Almost?" "You actually did send me to prison." "Well, not for good." "Abby. I don't know what to say, Abby, these" "Just say that you don't hate me." "I could never hate you." "I don't think anyone could ever hate you." "Oh, you don't know Billy Bob." " You gave him black roses?" " No. I gave him two black eyes." "He tried to run over me with a Harley Fat Boy when I was sleeping in the living room." "A guy rode a motorcycle through your living room?" "Yeah." "No." "Well, it was his living room, my Harley." "Billy Bob had intimacy issues." "Don't forget to water them, or they'll die." "I thought they already were dead." ""Laugh now, cry later."" "That's an interesting concept, Mr. Palmer." "Unfortunately for our guest here, the laughter has ended." "My friend who went to NYU said this guy was the club king of New York." "He was almost legendary." "Well, if he wasn't before, he most certainly is now." "And apparently, he only hung out with models and A-list celebrities." "This guy got the vip treatment everywhere he went." "You writing a gossip column, Palmer?" "Oh, I was just informing Dr. Mallard that he'd" " We-- l" " Talk to me, Duck." " Our initial assumptions were far from correct." "When I examined him just now, I found fresh bruises on his upper back, the left shoulder." "The x-rays indicated a severe fracture of the left scapula and a clavicle" " that was almost completely crushed." " He was in a fight?" "Injuries of that nature, his left arm would be completely useless." "Someone else shot him up." "Well, Abby's tox screen showed that Mr. Keller had a blood alcohol level of 0.34." "His heart was pumping so slowly that most of the heroin was never even metabolized." "He was passed out." "Yes, I'm afraid our young man was unconscious when the drug was administered." "From Abby?" "I thought this show was just mindless entertainment." "It's called research, Tony." "And I'm merely looking for a lead." "Well, this is only the beginning." "Before you know it, you'll be sitting at home eating a large box of chocolates, watching the Food Network on your 50-inch plasma." "We're not all so easily corrupted." "Take McGee, for example." "He's been raised in America his entire life, and he rarely turns the television on." "Tell him, McGee." "Yeah, tell him, McGee." "Well, depends what you consider rarely." "I might watch 20 minutes here or there." "Tell her what you do the rest of the time, probie." "That's not TV." "He pretends to be a fairy in an online computer game." "It's an elf lord." "Whatever." "Keller didn't commit suicide, he was murdered." "What the hell are you two doing?" "Find out why." "Hey, I gotta call you back." "Boss, I think I might have something." "Are you waiting for me to guess, Elf Lord?" "No, sorry. I was searching through Noah Keller's cell-phone records." "The night that he died, he received three calls." "Two were from his business manager, the other was from Hannah Bressling." "I've known Noah since high school." "We used to sneak into the Limelight, like, every weekend." " Limelight, that's that club in Chelsea." " Yeah, you've been?" "Actually, no, I... I saw it on Wild On." "Sounded like it was a pretty exclusive place." "Even as a kid, Noah seemed to know all the right people." "I don't think he waited in line his entire life." "Money tends to open doors." "No, he didn't use his dad's money as a crutch." "Really?" "Yeah, everyone always assumed he was popular only because he was rich, and that that was the reason he dated models." "I'm sure it didn't hurt." "No, women liked Noah because he was charismatic and interesting." "I mean, most guys that come from money are womanizers whose life revolves around their car." "Were you and Noah Keller ever an item?" "We dated on and off for a couple years, but we sort of lost touch when he hooked up with Taylor." "When did he get involved with drugs?" "People say he got her started, but it's not true." "They both made that leap together." "Did you speak to him when he came to see Taylor?" "No." "He was drunk and really upset." "But I called him later that night just to make sure that he was safe." "I just can't imagine why anyone would've wanted to hurt him." "What are you doing?" "I just stopped by to drop you something off, Jethro." "Looked to me like you were playing agent." "I left you four messages today." "Really?" "I only got three." "Keller's death was a murder, not suicide." "That's something I should probably know." "It sounds like you do." "This case is getting more attention by the hour." "I trust that you will keep me informed?" "Trust is a two-way street." "What are you saying, Jethro?" "You don't trust me?" "Of course, I trust you." "is that all?" "For now." "I can save you the trouble." "On today's Channel 6 News, per Director Shepard's demands," "Cynthia Sanchez issued a retraction on Monday's story." "She was also forced to issue a public apology to one Leroy Jethro Gibbs." "Our director has friends in high places, yes?" "Something I can do for you, Officer David?" "Abby needs to see you." "Said she found something." "I looked through all the Boot Camp Babe footage from the night Taylor Shane died." "She was nowhere to be seen." "She knew where the cameras were placed, knew how to avoid them." "Not all of them." "A few minutes ago, I found this." "It's from a Quantico security camera placed on top of the mess hall." "This video was taken about two hours before Taylor Shane died." "I presume not many people stroll around Quantico at 1 a.m." " Can you zoom in, Abs?" " My new enhancement program is booting up as we speak." "I've been waiting for the chance to bust out this bad boy." "This should clear it up a bit." "Taylor was with Staff Sergeant McMannis?" "When's Gibbs planning on starting?" " This is one of his techniques." " Really?" "Leaves the guy alone in a cold, dimly lit room." "And then, just as the guy starts to zone out, he bursts in the door and rifles off some questions." "I call it "rock the baby."" "I see." "And does it work?" "Just watch." "In a few moments, that door is gonna fly open and this big, bad Marine is gonna jump like a little girl." "What the hell's with you, DiNozzo?" "I was just telling Ziva about your interrogation techniques." "I'm not interrogating McMannis." "You are." "Thanks, boss. I could've used a little more prep time, but that's-- l'm not talking to you, DiNozzo." "He is all yours, Officer David." "You are aware that I've never performed an interrogation without inflicting some sort of pain?" "This footage was pulled from a Quantico security camera." "It was taken at 01 1 7 the morning Taylor Shane was murdered." "That's an interesting technique." "She doesn't wanna tempt herself." "Tell me what you know, staff sergeant." "Okay if I dip, ma'am?" "Promised Taylor l'd quit." "We're both addicted to nicotine." "Supermodel who spits tobacco?" "She smoked." "But it's against the rules at boot camp." "So you supplied her with your snuff there?" "Yes, ma'am." "And junk food?" " Sometimes." " And the midnight walks?" "You did that with every girl, staff sergeant?" "No, just Taylor." "We didn't want anybody to find out about us until the show ended." "Find out what?" "That we were in love, ma'am." "This is the worst defence imaginable." "The idea of a supermodel falling in love with a guy like this." "Okay, why's that?" "Well, it's absolutely ridiculous, you know?" "Supermodels date guys like George Clooney, or guys with George Clooney's bank account, or, of course, the actual George Clooney, but not guys like this." "They don't date guys like this." " Definitely not guys like this." " Meaning Marines, DiNozzo?" "No, I didn't say that." "I mean, I would never say that." "He thought I meant Marines." " Yeah, Gibbs." " l've got something for you, Gibbs." "I'll be right there." "Abby's got something." "Hey." "You were a lot of help." "Taylor was nothing like her reputation." "She was normal, like a regular girl." "I know it sounds weird, but I fell in love with her the moment I met her." "And she felt the same way?" "We were gonna get married once the show ended." "She was done with modelling." "She was sick of the whole lifestyle." "And the reason you failed to mention you were with her a few hours before she died?" "Who'd have believed me, ma'am?" "Hell, it was my life." "Barely believe it myself." "I believe you." "You do?" "So I'm free to go?" "No." "I think we will charge you with murder instead." "But you said you believed me, ma'am." "I would never, ever have done anything to hurt her." "What about the man who supplied the drugs that killed her?" "Noah Keller?" "Answer the question, staff sergeant." "I'm not feeling too well, ma'am." "This is the final wardrobe of Taylor Shane." " l couldn't imagine a worse way to go." " l could." "She planted herself on a barbed-wire fence." "What could possibly be worse?" "My top three are falling into a wood chipper, drowning in lava and being eaten by a shark." " l'm guessing you thought about this." " On and off for the last 25 years." "I read a statistic says you're more likely to be struck by lightning than attacked by a shark." "Not if you're a seal." " What do we have, Abs?" " l broke down the origin of each and every stain on Taylor's clothes." " Most were blood, mud, rust, sweat." " Most?" "Yes." "This stain here, under the collar, has traces of PCP mixed with formaldehyde, sodium and nicotine." " Tobacco." " Yep." "The PCP wasn't laced in the Klowny Kake." "It was laced in this." "Are you sure you don't want some more water, staff sergeant?" " l have to leave here now." " Sit down, staff sergeant." "What are you doing to me?" "I believe Officer David asked you to sit down." "You did this to me." "You're trying to destroy me!" " Guy just went crazy, boss." " He's OD'ing on PCP." "Get a medical team in here." "Where'd you get the chew, sergeant?" " Sergeant!" " From the show." " What's happening to me, sir?" " You've been drugged." "But you'll be all right now." "Hush." "This is what I would call some serious snuff." "The staff sergeant's chew was laced with 400 milligrams of PCP." "A typical hit for a user would be between seven and ten milligrams." "I knew that dude couldn't have taken me if he wasn't juiced." "What are his chances, Abby?" "It depends on how much PCP he ingested." "How long was he dipping?" "That long, huh?" "Let's hope he has better luck than Taylor Shane." "Okay, great." "Thank you." "Staff Sergeant McMannis is stable at Bethesda." " Still in critical condition." " Any prints?" "I was able to lift two latent prints." "One matches Staff Sergeant McMannis." " And the other?" " No owner yet." "But it does match a print lifted from Noah Keller's syringe." "Whoever killed Taylor killed Keller." "What's that for?" " lt's a fingerprint kit." " Why?" "Someone tried to kill Staff Sergeant McMannis today." "His chewing tobacco was laced with PCP." "Whoever did it left a print on the can." "The same person who murdered Taylor Shane and Noah Keller." " Whoa, you think it was one of us?" " Oh, we know it was one of you." "You were jealous of her, Hannah." "You're the one who introduced her to Keller." "Me, jealous of a crackhead?" "Please, Tom, you're stretching it a bit." "But why would we?" "That doesn't make any sense." "Taylor Shane was in love with the staff sergeant." " Yeah, right." "You've got to be joking." " No, we're not." "Well, then, fingerprint away, sweetheart. lt wasn't me." "We don't need it." "They're already in your arrest record." "From the time you beat up your assistant with your phone, I believe." "Well, it wasn't me." "Nope." "We've got yours too." "Yeah, remember that time you drove your SUV through the front of the Limelight?" "What is this?" "I loved Taylor." "I'm not giving you permission to take my fingerprints." "I'm gonna talk to my lawyer first." "We don't need anybody's permission." "You're under arrest for murder." "You didn't want her to give up her career to marry a Marine, but you couldn't stop her." "Too bad she was addicted to nicotine too." "You killed your own daughter?" "It was an accident!" "What was I supposed to do?" "She was gonna throw her life away, be some" "Be some jarhead's housewife." "Thanks, Tom." "What's so funny, honey?" "The ratings on this one will really be through the roof." "Ziva, no." "No, no, no." " You really find her attractive?" " Oh, yeah." "Well, I want to shoot her." "Tony, it's a matter of opinion." "How can it be wrong?" "Exactly. lt's a matter of you having the wrong opinion." " Why don't you two agree to disagree?" " l don't agree to that." "Boss, the director's new hair, you like the way she cut it?" "Short?" "She cut her hair?" "Never mind." "I don't suppose you want this." "I'll get rid of it." "Go home, DiNozzo. lt's late." "Yeah, I'm just finishing up a couple things." "Your flowers are dead."

"Previously on AMC's The Walking Dead..." "You look at me, stay with me, you hear me?" "Bites kill you." "The fever... burns you out." "But then after a while..." "You come back." "They're in Atlanta, I'll bet." "They're alive." "My wife and son." "That boy has been through too much, and he's not loosing his mother too." "Okay?" "Mom?" "You in the tank." "Cozy in there?" "Mom!" "Right here." "Any luck?" "How do we tell if they're poison?" "Uh, there's only one sure way I know of." "Ask Shane when he gets back?" "Yeah, you've got it." "Thank you." "Dale, I'm heading out." "Sweetheart, I want you to stay where Dale can see you, okay?" "Yes, mom." "You too." "Don't wander too far." "Stay within shouting distance." "And if you see anything, holler." "I'll come running." "Yes, mom." "Shh shh shh shh shh shh shh." "You scared the hell out of me." "I bet." "That's what you get for keeping me waiting." "I was trying to be quiet." " Where you been?" " Amy the mushroom queen..." "I had to wait for her to get back." " How much time do we have?" " Enough." " Come here." " Okay." "Hey, are you alive in there?" " Hello?" "Hello?" " There you are." "You had me wondering." "Where are you?" "Outside?" "Can you see me right now?" "Yeah, I can see you." "You're surrounded by walkers." "That's the bad news." "There's good news?" " No." " Listen, whoever you are," "I don't mind telling you I'm a little concerned in here." "Oh man." "You should see it from over here." "You'd be having a major freak-out." "Got any advice for me?" "Yeah, I'd say make a run for it." "That's it?" ""Make a run for it"?" "My way's not as dumb as it sounds." "You've got eyes on the outside here." "There's one geek still up on the tank but the others have climbed down and joined the feeding frenzy where the horse went down." " With me so far?" " So far." "Okay, the street on the other side of the tank is less crowded." "If you move now while they're distracted, you stand a chance." " Got ammo?" " In that duffel bag I dropped out there, and guns." "Can I get to it?" "Forget the bag, okay?" "It's not an option." " What do you have on you?" " Hang on." "Yeah." "Yeah." "I've got a Beretta with one clip," " 15 rounds." " Make 'em count." "Jump off the right side of the tank, keep going in that direction." "There's an alley up the street, maybe 50 yards." "Be there." "Hey, what's your name?" "Have you been listening?" "You're running out of time." "Right." "Ah!" "Whoa!" "Not dead!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Back here!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "What are you doing?" "!" "Come on!" "Come on, get up." "Nice moves there, Clint Eastwood." "You the new sheriff come riding in to clean up the town?" " It wasn't my intention." " Yeah, whatever." "Yeehaw." "You're still a dumbass." "Rick." "Thanks." "Glenn." "You're welcome." "Oh no." "The bright side:" "It'll be the fall that kills us." "I'm a glass-half-full kind of guy." "Are you the one that barricaded the alley?" "Somebody did..." "I guess when the city got overrun." "Whoever did it was thinking not many geeks would get through." "Back at the tank, why'd you stick your neck out for me?" "Call it foolish, naive hope that if I'm ever that far up shit creek, somebody might do the same for me." "Guess I'm an even bigger dumbass than you." "I'm back." "Got a guest plus four geeks in the alley." "Let's go!" "Morales, let's go!" "You son of a bitch." "We ought to kill you." " Just chill out, Andrea." "Back off." " Come on, ease up." "Ease up?" "You're kidding me, right?" "We're dead because of this stupid asshole." "Andrea, I said back the hell off." "Well, pull the trigger." "We're dead..." "All of us..." "Because of you." "I don't understand." "Look, we came into the city to scavenge supplies." "You know what the key to scavenging is?" "Surviving!" "You know the key to surviving?" "Sneaking in and out, tiptoeing." "Not shooting up the streets like it's the O.K. Corral." "Every geek for miles around heard you popping off rounds." "You just rang the dinner bell." "Get the picture now?" "Oh God." "What the hell were you doing out there anyway?" "Trying to flag the helicopter." "Helicopter?" "Man, that's crap." " Ain't no damn helicopter." " You were chasing a hallucination," " imagining things." "It happens." " I saw it." "Hey, T-Dog, try that C.B. Can you contact the others?" "Others?" "The refugee center?" "Yeah, the refugee center." "They've got biscuits waiting at the oven for us." "Got no signal." "Maybe the roof." "Oh no." "Is that Dixon?" " What is that maniac doing?" " Come on, let's go." "Hey, Dixon, are you crazy?" "!" "Oh jeez." "Hey!" "Y'all be more polite to a man with a gun!" "Huh?" "Ah!" "Only common sense." "Man, you wasting bullets we ain't even got!" "And you're bringing even more of them down on our ass!" "Man, just chill." "Bad enough I've got this taco-bender on my ass all day." "Now I'm gonna take orders from you?" "I don't think so, bro." "That'll be the day." ""That'll be the day"?" "You got something" " you want to tell me?" " Hey, T-Dog man, just leave it." " No." " All right?" "It ain't worth it." "Now Merle, just relax, okay?" "We've got enough trouble." " You want to know the day?" " Yeah." "I'll tell you the day, Mr. "Yo."" "It's the day I take orders from a nigger." " Mother..." " Hey, come on, Merle." "That's enough." "Come on." "Dixon!" "Whoa, cut it out, man!" "Stop it!" "Dixon, get off him!" "Dixon, you're gonna hurt him." "Merle, cut it out!" "No no no, please." "Please." "Yeah!" "All right!" "We're gonna have ourselves a little powwow, huh?" "Talk about who's in charge." "I vote me." "Anybody else?" "Huh?" "Democracy time, y'all." "Show of hands, huh?" "All in favor?" "Huh?" "Come on." "Let's see 'em." "Oh, come on." "All in favor?" "Yeah." "That's good." "Now that means I'm the boss, right?" "Yeah." "Anybody else?" " Hmm?" "Anybody?" " Yeah." " Who the hell are you, man?" "!" " Officer friendly." "Look here, Merle." "Things are different now." "There are no niggers anymore." "No dumb-as-shit, inbred white-trash fools either." "Only dark meat and white meat." "There's us and the dead." "We survive this by pulling together," " not apart." " Screw you, man." "I can see you make a habit of missing the point." "Yeah?" "Well, screw you twice." "Ought to be polite to a man with a gun." "Only common sense." "You wouldn't." "You're a cop." "All I am anymore is a man looking for his wife and son." "Anybody that gets in the way of that is gonna lose." "I'll give you a moment to think about that." "Got some on your nose there." "What are you gonna do?" "Arrest me?" "Hey!" "What are you doing?" "Man, that was my stuff!" "Hey!" "If I get loose, you'd better pray..." "Yeah, you hear me, you pig?" "!" " You hear me?" "!" " Yeah, your voice carries." "Do you hear me, you filthy pig?" "!" "You're not Atlanta P.D." " Where you from?" " Up the road a ways." "Well, officer friendly from up the road a ways, welcome to the big city." "My God, it's like Times Square down there." " How's that signal?" " Like Dixon's brain..." "Weak." " Keep trying." " Why?" "There's nothing they can do." "Not a damn thing." "Got some people outside the city is all." "There's no refugee center." "That's a pipe dream." "Then she's right." "We're on our own." "It's up to us to find a way out." "Good luck with that." "These streets ain't safe in this part of town from what I hear." "Ain't that right, sugar tits?" "Hey, honeybunch, what say you get me out of these cuffs, we go off somewhere and bump some uglies?" " Gonna die anyway." " I'd rather." "Rub muncher." "I figured as much." "The streets ain't safe." "Now there's an understatement." "What about under the streets?" "The sewers?" "Oh man." "Hey, Glenn, check the alley." "You see any manhole covers?" "No, must be all out on the street where the geeks are." "Maybe not." "Old building like this built in the '20s..." "Big structures often had drainage tunnels into the sewers in case of flooding down in the subbasements." " How do you know that?" " It's my job... was." "I worked in the city zoning office." "This is it?" "Are you sure?" "I really scoped this place out the other times I was here." "It's the only thing in the building that goes down." "But I've never gone down it." "Who'd want to, right?" "Oh." "Great." " We'll be right behind you." " No, you won't." "Not you." "Why not me?" "Think I can't?" "I wasn't..." "Speak your mind." "Look, until now I always came here by myself..." "In and out, grab a few things..." "No problem." "The first time I bring a group..." "Everything goes to hell." "No offense." "If you want me to go down this gnarly hole, fine..." "But only if we do it my way." "It's tight down there." "If I run into something and have to get out quick," "I don't want you all jammed up behind me getting me killed." "I'll take one person..." "Not you either." "You've got Merle's gun and I've seen you shoot." "I'd feel better if you were out in that store watching those doors, covering our ass." "And you've got the only other gun, so you should go with him." "You be my wingman." "Jacqui stays here." "Something happens, yell down to us," " get us back up here in a hurry." " Okay." "Okay, everybody knows their jobs." "Dah!" "Sorry for the gun in your face." "People do things when they're afraid." "Not that it was entirely unjustified." "You did get us into this." "If I get us out, would that make up for it?" "No, but it'd be a start." "Next time though, take the safety off." "It won't shoot otherwise." " Oh." " Is that your gun?" "It was a gift." "Why?" "Little red dot means it's ready to fire." "You may have occasion to use it." "Good to know." "Anybody out there?" "Hello?" "Anybody read?" "I'm hoping to hear somebody's voice 'cause I'm getting sick and tired of hearing mine." "Yeah, well, that makes two of us." "Why don't you knock that crap off?" "You're giving me a headache, boy." "Why don't you pull your head out of your ass?" "Maybe your headache will go away." "Try some positivity for a change." "Damn." "I'll tell you what..." "You get me out of these cuffs and I'll be all "Sammy Sunshine" positive for you." "Hey, see that hacksaw over there in that toolbag?" "Get it for me, hmm?" "Make it worth your while." "What do you say, man?" "Come on." "Get me out of these things." "So you can beat my ass again?" "Or call me nigger some more?" "Come on now." "It wasn't personal." "It's just that your kind and my kind ain't meant to mix." "That's all." "It don't mean we can't..." "Work together, parley, as long as there's some kind of mutual gain involved." "So... about that hacksaw..." "I guess you want me to get that rifle over there too so you can shoot that cop when he comes back up, huh?" "Huh." "Yeah, we've got ourselves a sewer tunnel." "Jacqui was right." "Can we cut through it?" "If we had a blowtorch and half a day, sure." "Dale's hacksaw sure as hell won't do it." "Oh." "See something you like?" "Not me, but I know someone who would..." "My sister." "She's still such a kid in some ways." "Unicorns, dragons..." "She's into all that stuff." "But mermaids..." "They rule." "She loves mermaids." "Why not take it?" "There's a cop staring at me." "Would it be considered looting?" "I don't think those rules apply anymore." "Do you?" " What did you find down there?" " Not a way out." "We need to find a way..." "And soon." "That construction site, those trucks..." "They always keep keys on hand." "You'll never make it past the walkers." "You got me out of that tank." "Yeah, but they were feeding." "They were distracted." "Can we distract them again?" "Right." "Listen to him." "He's onto something." "A diversion, like on "Hogan's Heroes."" " God." "Give it a rest." " They're drawn by sound, right?" "Right, like dogs." "They hear a sound, they come." " What else?" " Aside from they hear you?" "They see you, smell you and if they catch you, they eat you." " They can tell us by smell?" " Can't you?" "They smell dead, we don't." "It's pretty distinct." "If bad ideas were an olympic event," " this would take the gold." " He's right." "Just stop, okay?" "Take some time to think this through." "How much time?" "They already got through one set of doors, that glass won't hold forever." "Wayne Dunlap." "Georgia license." "Born in 1979." "He had $28 in his pocket when he died..." "And a picture of a pretty girl." ""With love, from Rachel."" "He used to be like us..." "Worrying about bills or the rent or the Super Bowl." "If I ever find my family, I'm gonna tell them about Wayne." "One more thing..." "He was an organ donor." "Oh!" "Madre de Dios!" "Oh!" "God!" "Gack!" " Oh God." " Oh." "Dios!" "Oh God." "Keep chopping." " I am so gonna hurl." " Later." "Everybody got gloves?" "Don't get any on your skin or in your eyes." "Oh God!" "Oh jeez." "Oh, this is bad." "This is really bad." "Think about something else..." "Puppies and kittens." "Dead puppies and kittens." "That is just evil." "What is wrong with you?" "Next time let the cracker beat his ass." " I'm sorry, yo." " You suck." " Do we smell like them?" " Oh yeah." "Glenn." "Just in case." "If we make it back, be ready." "What about Merle Dixon?" "Give me the axe." " We need... we need more guts." " Oh God!" "Hey, what's happening, man?" "Hey, T-Dog, try that C.B." "Hey, come on." "Talk to me, y'all." "Base camp, this is T-Dog." "Anybody hear me?" "Can anybody out there hear me?" "There." "That asshole is out on the street with the handcuff keys?" "Boy, that hose isn't long for this world, is it?" "No sir." "Where the hell are we gonna find a replacement?" "It's late." "They should've been back by now." "Worrying won't make it better." " Attaboy." " Yeah." "And three, two, one... pull it." "Ah!" "Aw." "Start it over." "Make your "p" the other way... around your finger." " Oops." " Good, just tie it like around your finger." "Attaboy." "Hello, base camp!" "Can anybody out there hear me?" "Base camp, this is T-Dog." "Anybody hear me?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Reception's bad on this end." " Repeat." "Repeat." " Shane, is that you?" "Is that them?" "We're in some deep shit." "We're trapped in the department store." " He say they're trapped?" " There are geeks all over the place." "Hundreds of 'em." "We're surrounded." "T-Dog, repeat that last." "Repeat." "He said the department store." "I heard it too." " Shane?" " No way." "We do not go after them." "We do not risk the rest of the group." " Y'all know that." " So we're just gonna leave her there?" "Look, Amy, I know that this is not easy..." "She volunteered to go to help the rest of us." "I know, and she knew the risks, right?" "See, if she's trapped, she's gone." "So we just have to deal with that." "There's nothing we can do." "She's my sister, you son of a bitch." "Amy..." "Come on." "It's all right, buddy." "It's gonna work." "I can't believe it." "Don't draw attention." "Oh man." "It's just a cloudburst." "We get 'em all the time." "It'll pass real quick." "The smell's washing off." "Isn't it?" " Is it washing off?" " No, it's not." "Well, maybe." "Run!" "Come on, come on, come on." "Rick!" "Go go go go!" " They're leaving us." " What?" "What?" " Where they going?" "Where they going?" " No no, come back." "Oh my God." "Oh my God." "They're all over that place." "You need to draw them away." "Those roll-up doors at the front of the store..." "That area?" "That's what I need cleared." "Raise your friends." "Tell them to get down there and be ready." "And I'm drawing the geeks away how?" "I..." "I missed that part." "Noise." "Those roll-up doors at the front of the store facing the street..." "Meet us there and be ready." " Come on!" "Let's go, let's go!" " Hey, you can't leave me here!" "I'm not fooling, man!" "Morales!" " Hey, man!" "Don't do this!" " Come on." "Hey, that's my gun." "You can't leave me." " Don't leave me here, you guys." " Morales, come on." "I'm coming!" "We've gotta go!" "Morales!" "You can't leave me like this, man!" "Hey, T-Dog." "No, man." "You can't leave me, man." "You can't leave me here..." "Not like this." "You can't, man." "It's not human." "Come on, don't do this." "Come on, T. Come on!" "Come on, yeah!" "Yeah!" "Come on!" "Co..." "That's it!" "Yes!" "Come on, baby!" "Come on." "Go." "Son of a bitch!" "You did that on purpose!" " I didn't mean to!" " You lie!" "You did it on purpose!" " It was an accident!" " Don't leave me, man!" "Don't leave me!" "Don't leave me!" " You liar!" " I'm sorry." "Man, I'm sorry." " Don't leave me!" " I'm sorry." "Damn you all!" "Don't leave me, man!" " Don't leave... don't leave me!" " Ah!" "Hey!" "What are you doing, man?" "You're gonna rot in hell!" "You're gonna rot in hell!" " Come back, man!" " Wait a minute!" "Here I come!" "Don't leave me!" "Don't leave!" "Okay." "Okay." "I got it." "Shh." "What is that?" "Come on." "Come on." "Get closer." "Get closer." "Come on." "Come on." "Hey, wait for me!" "They're here!" "Let's go!" "They're in here!" " Let's go!" " Open the door!" " We've gotta go!" " Go!" "I'm in!" "Don't leave me!" "You'll die!" "Go to hell!" "Damn you!" "You're gonna rot in hell!" "I dropped the damn key." "Where's Glenn?" "♪ Now when I was a little boy... ♪" "♪ at the age of five ♪" "♪ I had something in my pocket ♪" "♪ keeps a lot of folks alive... ♪" "Whoo-hoo-hoo!" "Yeah-hoo-hoo!" "♪ You know, baby ♪"

"No life is perfect though it may seem to be." "Secrets and discontent lie hidden beneath the smoothest surface." "In this, as in so many things, my life was no exception." "Try and get the 6:00 tonight, please." "I'll do my best." "Promise I'll try." "That's okay." " Good morning, sir." " Morning." "Guess what?" "There's a meeting on Whirlwind at 2." "Oh, really?" "Why?" "What happened?" "Did the French come back into the ring?" "I've no idea, but Mr. Hardy is terribly excited." "Is he indeed?" "What's this about?" " Priscilla says Mike's jumping up and down." " Keep calm, Sherlock." "We've probably given bad advice and we're in for a bollocking." "Got any boredom suppressants?" "Why should I?" "You're the one who needs them." " Good evening." " Hello." "You made it, I'm amazed." "Only just, and no thanks to Simon." "He's always saying how bored he is and then will not shut up." "What was the meeting about?" "Oh, it's a new thing." "I'm not allowed to talk about it." "Oh, James, you are funny." "Has it got one of those mysterious names you all love?" "Project Whirlwind." "Sounds like something out of The Famous Five." "Do you all sit around drinking tea with lashings and lashings of strawberry jam?" "You haven't forgotten you're playing cricket tomorrow?" "Of course I had." "Yes, yes." "Hello, hello." "Oh, you hopeless dog." "You missed me?" "Don't you dare be nice to him." "He dug a hole in the lavender hedge and he's absolutely wrecked it." "You're a bad dog, are you." "I thought we were getting rid of the lavender hedge." "Were we?" "I'm sorry, I've forgotten." "Drink?" "Yes." "Come in." "Come on!" "Sorry, guys." "What is it?" "I can't find the raffle tickets." "Oh, what have you done with them?" "That's it." "They say they were delivered to the house but I don't remember ever seeing them." " Is there a problem?" "Only that I'm supposed to be running a raffle and I've lost the tickets." "Indeed." "Oh, yes, very funny." "Go ask Sarah Tufnell." "She's bound to have spares somewhere." "Come on, James." "Sorry." "They're a bit bashed, but they'll have to do." "I suppose I'd better buy one." " Who's that?" " Lord Rawston's son, William." "Golly." "That's William Bule?" "I thought he was in New York." "Well, he is." "Or rather, was." " I gather he's moving back." " What's he like?" "Do you know, honestly, I've hardly seen him since his wedding." " He used to be quite a pal of David's." " He's married then?" "Divorced." "Shame, really." "She was rather sweet." "Still, here we are." " Excuse me." " I'm so sorry." " Now, what can I get you?" " Two teas, please." "I've got to sit down." "I'm nearly dead." "How's James getting on?" "Holding his own." "He's always in for hours, but he never seems to score any runs." "What's he do?" "Something high-powered in the city?" "He's a solicitor." "Is that high-powered?" " I assume he's very good." " He's very expensive." "They're closing up in the tent." "I thought I'd steal this for you." "You're a lifesaver." "Can I give you a hand with the tickets?" "You're serious?" "That would be simply wonderful." "I'm completely defeated." "I'm sorry, you must know each other." "Maggie Pierce, William Bule." "Yes, I know Mr. Bule." "I used to work up at the house when his mother was alive." "Yes." "Well, I better get going." "I'd forgotten she worked for your parents." "How long was she there?" " Quite long." " Oh, she's been marvelous to us." "She runs the house." "She feeds the dog when we're in London." "Can't think how we'd manage without her." "Oh, God, that's me." "Good luck." "What happened?" "Oh, the husband came back." "He wasn't dead after all." " So who went off with James Mason?" " Nobody." "Turns out he was a Nazi spy." "Well, I'd have gone off with him anyway." "Well, they didn't think like that in 1954." "I wonder if we ought to have a party down here?" "I don't know why you're making that noise." "All you have to do is turn up and drink." "Oh, on that basis, go ahead." "We never entertain." "We must owe everyone within a 20-mile radius." "I've got a better idea." "Let's stop going to them." "Oh, don't be so grumpy." "You're the one who wanted a country life." "I didn't want a country life." "I wanted to get away from London life." "I'm talking about a drink and some nibbles, not an embassy ball." "I'll get it." " Hello?" " Darling." "Oh, no." "Don't say what I think you're gonna say." "I wouldn't if I didn't have to, but there's this guy coming from Paris." "And there's no other time in the history of the world when you can see him." "I'll try and catch the half-past-8 and I should get in about 20 to 10." " I'll meet it." " Oh, don't you dare." "I'll get a taxi." "No, I'll meet it." "It'll give me an excuse to get rid of the stayers." "Everything under control?" "What have you done about the glasses?" "I've borrowed some from Bill Bule." "So you really are organized." "Yes, sir." "What are you doing here?" "I thought you were giving a party." "You're not staying for the meeting." "Afraid we'll reach a decision without you?" "You're like a mountaineer clinging on for dear life to every tiny detail." "You've got to learn to let go, James." "In my experience, mountaineers who let go usually regret it." "You're sweet." "How was it?" "Well, you know." "They came, they drank too much, they left." " How was your meeting?" " Oh, all right." "Needless to say, the French are making a song and dance about everything." "But I think it will be okay." "Well, you're home now." " Who's that?" " Oh, it's Bill." "What's he doing here?" "I couldn't find the car keys." "Wasn't that stupid?" "Yes." "Anyway, he was just leaving so he said he'd bring me." "That really was very kind of you." " Thank you." " Pleasure." "Can we tempt you in for a drink?" "Thanks." " What's that?" " What's what?" "This scratch." "Oh, it's probably some jealous bastard." "I might have scraped a gate or something." "Did Anne tell me you were getting a flat in London?" "Yeah." "Bill has two sons in London." "He likes to see a lot of them." "That must have been difficult when you were in New York." "Yeah." "How old are they?" "The eldest one's about 12, I think and Freddy must be 9 by now, I suppose, or 10." "I thought you were going to take that down." "You really shouldn't raise our hopes like that." "Why should I take it down?" "Because one should never hang bad pictures." " They corrupt one's taste." " I don't think it is bad." "I suppose I wouldn't mind it if he were handsome, but he's got such an odd nose." " You put him there." " Poor old James." " I expect he's an ancestor, is he?" " Yes." "I don't know about an ancestor." "He's a cousin or something, isn't he?" "I must run." "Once more, thank you a million times." " Yes, thanks." " Don't see me out." " What's got into him?" " What do you mean?" "Why on earth was he being so fucking rude?" " Oh, darling." " Don't "oh, darling" me." "You're just as bad." " What?" " You were ganging up on me, I hate that." "No, no, no." "I really hate it." "Darling, I'm sorry." "He was only trying to be funny." "Well, he failed." "You sure this was five minutes?" "Yes." "Why, isn't it right?" " I'll do another." " No, it doesn't matter." " Well, don't eat it if it isn't right." " No, no, no." "It's fine." "It's fine." " Bloody people." " I'll get it." " Hello?" " Anne..." " ... something's happened." " What?" " Who was it?" " Maggie." "Oh, don't tell me she's not coming." " No, she's not." " Typical." "I don't know why you stand for it." "There's been an accident." "I feel rather mean now." " Who is it?" " Her husband." "He's been knocked down." "Christ, is he gonna be all right?" "They don't know." "They've taken him to the hospital in High Wycombe." "That's where she was calling from." "Oh, I'm so sorry." "What a bloody thing." " When was this?" " Yesterday evening." " I've said we'll go straight there." " Where?" "To the hospital." " Why?" " What do you mean, "why"?" "Darling, darling, I'm very sorry that Maggie's husband has been hurt and I hope he recovers, but how can we help?" "I've said we'll go." "She'll be expecting us." "This is kind of you." " How is he?" " Not good." "I'm sure they'll do everything they can." "Do they know what happened?" " I saw it." " You saw it?" "I was looking out the bedroom window." "He was nearly home." "I saw him through the trees in the lane, and suddenly this car shot past." "Must have caught his handlebars or something." "Can you remember what kind of car it was?" "I don't know what I remember." "It was a Jeep or a Range Rover or something like that." "It was all so quick." "Mum you better come." "You go." "I'll stay here as long as you like." " Come in, come in." " Yes, I'm just dropping these off." "Nonsense." "Come right in." "Dump those there for the moment." " All right." " We're in the library." "I've got my two grandsons for the weekend." "William." "James, hello." "I just brought the glasses back." " Do you want a drink?" " No, no, I don't think so." "Charles, turn that bloody thing down or go and watch it upstairs." "Come on." "I hear there's been an accident." "Yes." "Poor old Joe." "He used to work here." "Is he gonna be all right?" "I don't know." "Anne's with them now." " Sit down." " Yes, thank you." " It just depends." " I am sorry." "Have they any idea who did it?" "Well, his wife thinks she saw someone in a Range Rover." "I'm sorry, it's just that around here, it might be more helpful if it was someone who wasn't in a Range Rover." " It was a pity we missed you last night." " I was caught up in London." "Although these days, I can't drink more than a thimbleful if I'm driving." "You should have made Bill take you." "Of course, but, like fools, we were in two cars." "I had a meeting and I came straight on." "A meeting?" "I wish you'd stop talking American." "Yet he thinks of himself as a Europrince, a lord of creation." "And the minute the other side say anything to diminish this..." " Yes?" " James, I am sorry." " Anne is on the telephone." " Can't you take a message?" "It seems to be rather urgent." " What is it?" " Maggie's daughter's just rung." "He died two hours ago." "Oh, I'm sorry." "We'll talk about it when I get home." "Of course." "I shouldn't have called." "No, it's just I'm in the middle of something." "Yes, you must get back to work." "Bye." " Maggie, I'm sorry." "So very sorry." " Thank you for coming." " Let's go." " I just want to say something to Maggie." "She's with her children, darling." "Leave it." "No, I want to." "Maggie, we're thinking of you." "Thank you." "Interested?" "I know who can give you a good deal." " No, thanks." "I see..." " Hello, Bill." "How is she?" "Widowed." "What do you want for pudding?" "Oh, what is there?" "Ice cream or fruit or you could have one of those little summer puddings but I'd have to defrost it." "What time did Bill Bule get to the party?" "What?" "When did Bill get to the house on the night of the party?" "I don't know." " About half past 7, I think." "Why?" " No reason." "Except..." "Except I think he had something to do with it." " With what?" " The accident." " That's ridiculous." "He couldn't have." " Why not?" "Because he wasn't coming that way." "He didn't drive from their house." "He came from the other end." " Why?" "What was he doing?" " What do you mean?" "Who was he seeing at the other end of the village?" "He said he was with the Northbrooks." "They're in the opposite direction." "He told me he was at a meeting." " You haven't asked him about it." " No, no, no." "Not like that." "He said he went on to the party from a meeting." "Well, obviously he had a meeting with the Northbrooks." "So, what's it to be:" "Ice cream, fruit or summer pudding?" " Have you got any cheese?" " Yes." "Just cheese." "Hello, Bill." "It's James Manning." "Is this a good time?" "You just caught me." "There's something I want to talk to you about." "Yeah?" "I don't want to discuss it over the telephone." "Are you in London this week?" "So, what's the problem?" "I don't really know how to put it but I think you knocked down that man the other day." "No, it wasn't me." " Was it you?" " No." "Then it must have been a third party." " Can we have the red now, please?" " Yes, sir." "Thank you." "You said you were at a meeting before the party." "But according to Anne, you told her that you were with the Northbrooks." " Yes." " Well, which was it?" "Perhaps I was at a meeting with the Northbrooks." " Yes, that's what Anne said." " Well, there you go then." "The Northbrooks were in Spain." "They didn't get back till the weekend." "I telephoned Amelia on Tuesday morning before I rang you." "And that scratch on your car." "Why were you so anxious to get it painted out?" "I didn't think it was very pretty." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Suppose I was somewhere else that night, but I don't want to prove it." "Then you can't complain if people suspect you." "Who's complaining?" "I don't mind in the least, my dear chap." "Or if the police ask the same question." "I assume it's asking too much to expect you just to leave it alone?" " Yes, it is." " Why is it?" "Well, at the risk of sounding stuffy, I like to do the right thing." "It's the way I am." "Well?" "Oh, well, have it your own way." "I did it." "Can I?" "Can I rely on you to turn yourself in?" "You know, this will cause my father and my children a great deal of suffering." "I know you don't believe me but I am extremely sorry the accident took place." "But the fact is it did." "None of us can change that." "So you'll telephone the police today?" "Tomorrow." "Tomorrow." " Can I get you anything?" " No, thanks." "I had lunch with Bill Bule today." " Aren't you surprised?" " Should I be?" "I asked him about the accident." "He said he was responsible for it." " He did it." "It was his fault." " So what happens next?" " What do you think happens next?" "He goes to the police, they bring charges." "I don't know." "And all that's absolutely necessary?" "Yes, it's absolutely necessary." "How will it help?" "What do you mean?" "I don't see how it'll help." "Bill's made a mistake." "A horrible, tragic mistake, and a man is dead but it's not as if he'll do it again." "I mean, he's no risk to anyone else." "That's ridiculous." "Of course, you're perfect, as we all know but even you do sometimes make mistakes." "I don't usually kill people." "Then there's his father and the boys, what about them?" "You want to wreck all those lives?" " I don't see that I've got a choice." " You do have a choice." "You've done your stuff." "You've solved the mystery." "Can't you leave it to Bill to go to the police?" "He's the one who has to live with it." "I don't understand you." "Of course I can't leave it up to Bill." "And what about Maggie?" "Last week, you were sobbing in the hospital." "Now you want to hide the killer." "It's nonsensical." " Sure." " What is this?" "Am I missing something?" "Yes." "I was with him." "What?" "In the car, I was with him." "Why?" "It will not surprise you to learn that I'd forgotten to check the drink for the party." "And around 5, I suppose I realized there wasn't any vodka." "Then I'd lost the car keys." "So I rang Bill and he gave me a lift to the new Sainsbury's and on the way home, we stopped at a pub." "Why?" " I don't know why, we felt like it." " So he was drunk." "He wasn't drunk." "Neither of us was drunk." "No, but he'd had a drink before he drove you home." "We'd both had a drink." "Anyway I was driving." " Slow down." " Don't fuss, I've got the hang of it now." " For God's sake." " Blimey." "There is something very powerful-making about these things." "Could you be a little less powerful, please, and calm down..." "Jesus!" "Why didn't you stop?" "I don't know." "Was it Bill?" "Didn't he want you to stop?" "He didn't think we'd hit him." "We certainly didn't know that he was really hurt." "Oh, I don't believe this." "What are we going to do?" "Whatever you want." "You must decide, James." "I'll do whatever you want." "Never mind me, what do you want?" "I don't want Bill to confess to something that I've done." " So I suppose I better go to the police." " No, no, no, you can't do that." "Why not?" "Because they'll send you to prison." "Then that's where I belong." "You can come and visit me and bring me a cake with a file in it." "Do you mean to use that plate?" "Yes!" "I'm so, so sorry." "Anyway, they..." "They haven't got much to go on." "Even if Maggie gets the car right, it's not much." "Nothing they can make stick." " They can if I help them." " You're not going to prison." "I've done wrong." "I ought to be punished." "Well, that's very noble of you but the problem is, you won't be the only one to take the punishment." ""Top Solicitor's Wife in Hit-and-Run Killing."" "Exactly." " Why was it different for Bill?" " What?" "You didn't mind his family being involved." "Why is it different for me?" " You'd better ring him." " Oh, never mind Bill." "Have you decided what you want to do?" "Nothing, I suppose." "You want me to do nothing." "I don't see the point in wrecking our lives as well." "Now you sound like Bill." "Oh, fuck Bill!" " That's the thing." " What?" "I do fuck Bill." "Or rather, he fucks me." "I'm so sorry." "Can I ask you an enormous favor?" "I want to get Anne away for a few days." "I wonder if you could cover for me." "Priscilla knows what's going on and I have a telephone." "Could you bare to keep an eye on things?" "Of course." "Where are you going?" "Well, it doesn't matter much." "Someplace where we won't meet anyone we know." "Thanks." "I'll see you later." "I've let you down, haven't I?" "I must have done, or none of this would've happened." "No, you haven't." "It was my fault." "I did it." "I did everything." "Can't we just leave it at that?" "No, no, no." "We can't leave it." "I need to understand it." "Look, here am I, thinking we are very happy only to discover that, on the contrary, we, or at any rate, you are very unhappy." " No." "Well, what is it?" "Am I thoughtless?" "Am I unkind?" "Or is it something more prosaic?" "Am I bad lover?" "Is that it?" "Is his cock bigger than mine?" " Does he give you more orgasms than I do?" " No, it..." "He isn't..." "It's nothing like that." "Well, what is it?" "He's easy to be with." "He doesn't seem to want anything from me." " And that's good, is it?" " Yes, it's good." "It's very good." "You have such standards, James." "Whatever I do, I always feel that I am letting you down in some way." "That I'm not measuring up." "I'm getting it wrong." "I'm disappointing you." "And you don't disappoint him?" "I don't think he cares enough either way." "And that's just so relaxing." "I'm sorry I'm not more relaxed." "Killing someone seems to stick in my mind." "Do you know what I think?" "I think we should've had a child." "I shouldn't have let you give up." "Is that what you think?" "Well God knows I tried hard enough." "Anyway the thought of a baby yowling away nonstop and you wondering why the drawing room wasn't tidy or the wine wasn't cold..." "I can't see it, can you?" "Why do they come to these tomb-like hotels if they've got nothing to say to each other?" "What now?" "I suppose we go back to London and I tell Bill that it's finished." "And I get over him and we forget about the accident." "And we start again." "Can you do that?" "I don't know." "I haven't got a better idea, have you?" "No." "No, you simply have to put it behind you." "You said so yourself." "I know." "I know I do." "It's just that it doesn't seem to want to get behind me quite yet." "You've had a good break, that's the main thing." "Does you good to get away." "I wish you'd go away for a bit, we can manage." "Thank you, but I don't want to." "Not just yet." "Not while they're working on it anyway." " Are they getting anywhere?" " Oh, I think so." "That's what they say." "You've got to trust them, haven't you?" "I'll take these upstairs." "Don't punish yourself." "Somebody's got to." "Now for the next Station of the Cross." "What?" "Bill." "I've got to tell him it's over." "You don't have to do that now." "No time like the present, as Nanny used to say." "It does have to be absolute, does it?" "You're certain we can't keep him as a friend?" "I am." "Because I can assure you, it wouldn't embarrass him." "He doesn't care enough about me for that." "No, it's a little too Jerry Springer for me, I'm afraid." "And I do care about you." "Right." "Well, off I jolly well go." " Darling, we've got a visitor." " Who?" "Inspector Marshall." "The inspector's handling the inquiry into Joe's death." "He's come up from Buckinghamshire." "Oh, how do you do?" " Weren't you at the funeral?" " Yes." "Yes, I..." "I remember you." "How nice of you to go." "Well, please, go through." "Sit down." "I was up in London and I wanted to catch you both." "You never know with weekenders when they'll be back." "Yes, well, we're going down tomorrow." "But I'm delighted." "Whatever we can do to help." "How are you enjoying life in Buckinghamshire?" "I was born there, so I'm used to it." "Has?" "Has Anne offered you a drink?" "Oh, nothing for me, thank you." "So..." "I understand you gave a party the night Mr. Pierce was run down." " Yes, well, Anne did." " Oh, you yourself weren't present at it?" "No, no, no." "I was held up in London." "So you don't know the comings and goings of the guests." "Obviously not." "And you must have been very busy." "Yes, I can't see where this is going." "The incident happened near your house, at approximately quarter past 6 when a lot of people were on their way to your house many of them driving powerful cars on roads that were unfamiliar." "Might I have a list of your guests?" "I can't believe there's any connection." "In a manslaughter case, we try and be thorough." "Of course you do." "If you can wait while I go through this smorgasbord I call my desk." "Yes." "Yes, I can wait." " So things are moving along?" " We like to think so, sir." "Did you know that Mrs. Pierce has a criminal record?" "Yes, I knew she had a bit of bother a few years ago." "You make her sound like a great train robber." " She told you then?" " Yes." "What difference does it make?" "You can expect things to get uncomfortable for her in court." "She's the key witness, if you see what I mean." "You think it's gonna go to court?" "We hope so, sir." "We certainly hope so." "He can't suspect you." "One person not driving to a party is surely the hostess." " Should we ring Bill?" " No." " I only meant to warn him." " No." "All right." " What train are you getting tomorrow night?" " I'm going to be late." "There's another meeting for this Whirlwind thing." "I'll get a taxi." " Oh, don't be silly." " Honestly, I won't get back before 10." "Anne." "Anne." "Wake up, you're dreaming." "You're dreaming, darling." "Wake up." "It's a dream." "You were dreaming." "Okay." "I don't know if I can do this, James." "Of course you can." "I don't know." "I don't think I'm cut out for a life of crime." "I suppose I am." "Can't we just tell them?" " Wouldn't it be better in the long run?" " What are you saying?" "You have no idea what they'll do to you." "Yes, I do." "And it makes me so scared that I can hardly breathe." "But I don't think I can stand this much longer." "Well, you must." "It's too late for all that." "We've passed that point." "We just have to go forward now." "We have to go forward." "No, I want to check the wording on this one again." "Mr. Hardy's okayed it." " I want to check the wording again." " Fine." "An Inspector Marshall rang yesterday after you'd gone." "I told him to try you at home." "Yes, fine." "He came around last night." "There was a hit-and-run accident near our house in the country." "Was someone hurt?" "Oh, killed, I'm afraid." "The husband of our cleaner." "God, how terrible." "I'm sorry." " Do they have any idea who did it?" " No." "No, I don't think so." " Drunk, I suppose." " No, they..." "They just think someone came around the corner too fast." "Of course, they could have been drunk, now I think of it." "Greetings." "I bring tidings of comfort and joy." " What?" " There's an air strike in Paris." "The meeting's off." "Mike's going home and so are we." " What's more, I'm giving you a lift." " What?" "I'm staying near High Wycombe, which means I pass within two miles of you." " That's kind." "Are you sure?" " We're going now to beat traffic." " Just let me ring Anne first." " No answer." "Try Anne's mobile, leave a message and then you can go home early yourself for a change." "Don't worry, I will." "Are you all right?" "Only, you seem rather preoccupied lately." "Do I?" "I wondered if everything had settled down." "Yes." "Yes, thank you." "Good." " This is not you, I assume." " No, our local milord's." "Crikey!" "I don't envy the villagers if they drive like that." "Was that one of the family?" "I..." "I don't know, I couldn't see." "Next left." "Anne?" " Surprise." " Not quite." "I got a message from Priscilla about 10 minutes ago." "Hello, Simon." " What can we get you?" " Nothing." " But can I see the house?" " Of course." " How much did you have to do?" " It wasn't too bad." "Bye." "Bye." "You came out of the gates as we drove into the village." "Aren't you going to deny it?" "There's no point, is there?" " You said you'd given him up." " Yes." "Well, I was lying, wasn't I." "Are you going to give him up?" "No." "James if I could, I would." "I meant to when I went up there." "But I couldn't." "I don't know why." "Maybe it's love after all." "But even if it isn't, if it's only lust or desperation or neurosis I know that if I promise to finish with him, I'll break that promise." "I said I'd end it, and I meant to but I can't." "I see." "Yes?" " James?" " Yes." " You gotta come over here right away." " What are you talking about?" "You and Anne, you must come over here now." " No." " What do you mean, "no"?" "I mean I know what you've done, you shit." "And if you were the last man on earth, I wouldn't set foot in any house or an inch of land associated with you." "Yes, yes, we'll do all that later." "The thing is, you must come now." "There's a witness." "It's a guy in the local garage." "He rang just after you left." "He knows about the scratch." "Oh, Jesus, you didn't have it resprayed around here." "No, I'm not a complete idiot." "Of course I didn't." "But I filled up before I went to London." "And I went back this morning and he noticed the scratch was gone." "Apparently, they've been asking questions at the garages." " No." " Sure?" " Will he report it?" " Well, he said he felt he ought to." "I couldn't think of a reason why he shouldn't." "No." "I told him it couldn't possibly be me, but I doubt that made any difference." "Why not?" "Why couldn't it be you?" "Because you telephoned me here at a quarter past 6 that night." " Well, why would I?" " I don't know." "You couldn't get through to the vicarage." "You had a surprise for Anne." "What does it matter?" "The point is, you better have a story ready." " But the records in the office will show..." " For chrissake, James." "You borrowed a mobile and can't remember whose." "You went out for cigarettes and rang from a call box." "Just think of something." "Unless we tell the truth and take the consequences." " All right." " Good." "Here's another fine mess you've got me into." "Okay, when?" "Tomorrow morning then." "Goodbye." "Well, talk of the devil." "Would I be in tomorrow morning as a certain P.C. Marshall wants to call on me?" "He's an inspector." "He came to see us in London." "It doesn't mean anything." "Well, that's all right then, isn't it?" "I won't bring it up unless he asks." "If he does, I'll say you rang from the train you were on because Anne was engaged." " Okay, okay." " Good." "That concludes the business." "Oh, is that it?" "We stand around drinking, then I push off while you go upstairs and fuck my wife?" " That sounds about right." " You bastard." "You bloody fucking shitty bastard." " Jesus Christ." " Fuck." "Hello?" "You're drunk." "Yes." "Why have you come back?" "His father's there." "Oh, bad luck." "So, what's next on the agenda?" "Aren't you going to fill me in?" "Presumably we shall not be returning to Wales for another heart-to-heart." "Bill's going racing at Longchamp." "He's leaving tomorrow." "He's asked me to go with him." "Right." "He thought we might stay on in Paris for a couple of weeks." "Oh, I see." "I see." "So have we reached what they call "the end of the road"?" "Do you want a divorce?" "I just want everybody to stop being so unhappy." " What?" " Only I shall be in Paris next week, as you very well know." " No, I don't." " The final grand meeting for Whirlwind." "I'd forgotten, I'm sorry." "Oh, don't be, please." "It'll be fun." "You with your lover, me slaving in misery across the way." "My work's always been a source of hilarity for you." "I like to think you can still get a good laugh out of it." "Oh, James, please don't be like this." "Why not?" "How should I be?" "You can have "suicidal," "bitter" or "glad to be rid of you."" "Only I can't manage the last, so I think I'll stick to "bitter."" "Will I see you when we're there?" "Fuck off." "I suppose you'll be at the George V." "Fuck off." " You looking for me?" " If it's not too inconvenient." " Well, the thing is, I've got a lunch." " It won't take long." " I thought we could go up to your office." " Of course." "It seems Mr. Bule's car was in some sort of collision on or around the night Mr. Pierce died." "I should ask him about it then." " We have." " And what did he say?" "That he can't have anything to do with Mr. Pierce's death." "He says you rang him at Madeley Park at a quarter past 6 that night." " Yes." " Why was that?" "Anne was engaged and I wanted to confirm which train I was going to be on and I knew Bill was going to the party." "And the call was from this office." "No, no." "No, not exactly, now you say it." "I was in the building but out of the office." "I borrowed somebody's mobile, though, for the life of me, I can't remember whose." "And it was definitely a quarter past 6?" "It must've been around then, because after the call I collected some papers for a 6:30 meeting." "Well, if that's true, it would seem to settle it." "It is true." "What's your opinion of Mrs. Pierce as a witness?" "What do you mean?" "I mentioned that she was in trouble a few years ago." " Oh, yes." " Well, she was convicted of theft." "She told us about it when we employed her." "It's a long time ago, inspector." "You know who was the main witness against her." "The Honorable William Bule." "She was working at his parents' house." "He was the one who said she took it." "He said he'd seen her do it." "The point being she's made a statement saying that it was Bule's car she saw that night." "Well, how can she be sure?" "She said it happened so fast." "Well, she says she is sure." "But that's why I asked the question." "Especially now you've confirmed that you spoke to him at the same time as the crash." "You see my difficulty, sir." "You mean she might be trying to incriminate him for some sort of revenge?" "Sir?" "I don't think Maggie would deliberately lie about something like that." "No?" "No." "Do you, by any chance, feel like buying a couple of opera seats for tomorrow night?" " I'm stuck with them." " What is it?" "An incredibly dreary production of Turandot." "The tickets are about a million pounds each." " Tempting." "The answer's no." " You don't want to check with Anne?" "Well, she's away at the moment." "She's in Paris." "Are you meeting up with her next week?" "I don't know." "I don't think so." "I'm off." "Are you on your own then?" "Yes, yes." "Fridge pie for me, I'm afraid." "I don't suppose you'd fancy a bowl of my spaghetti instead." "Well, that's very charming, but I give you enough trouble during the day." "It's no trouble." "I've made this huge bowl of sauce." "Don't know why." "You're sweet but I think I'm due an early night." "Of course." "I just remembered I'd made this huge bowl of sauce." "Yes, well, I'll see you tomorrow." "James Manning." "Yes, Mr. Manning." "We're expecting you." "Here we are." "Room 432." "We also have a message for you." "Dearest James, please let's meet." "You'll say no, of course." "No." "Thank you." "James?" "James?" "Of course, monsieur." "Hello?" "Yes, it's..." " It's me." "Is he there?" " No." "Good." "Will you let me see you?" "What are you doing for dinner?" "We're going to Fouquet's." "What about tomorrow?" "I've got a lunch, but I'm free in the morning." "Let's meet in the Parc Monceau at half past 11." "By the statue of Guy de Maupassant." "Do you remember it?" "I remember." "Well, here we are again." "I've always loved this place." " You look well." " So do you." "Marshall came to the office last week." "He wanted to check the story about the phone call." "So now you're in it." "Wasn't I before?" "Did you know that Bill was the main witness against Maggie?" " Yes, he told me." " When?" "A few days ago." "Why didn't he tell you earlier?" "What difference does it make?" "She's identified his car." "They think she might be lying in order to implicate him." "She wouldn't do that." "Well, I know, but, crazy as it is, if they think that, it could help you." "I wish you'd let me tell them the truth right from the beginning." "Well, that's not what happened." "That's what Bill says." "I thought you could do with this." "That's very kind of you." "None of this is Anne's fault." "I know who I blame, and it isn't her." "I don't know how helpful it is to blame anyone, really." "I don't agree." "Some people are wreckers." "We're all wreckers." "We make choices." "We make them for the best and most loving reasons but we don't see the damage we cause." "With what's happened between you both there's something I ought to tell you." " Yes?" "You know the accident when Joe was killed." " Yes?" "Mr. Bule was driving." "Well, how do you know that?" "Did you see him?" "It was him." "It was his car." "I've told the inspector." "I've made a statement." "Well, what did he say?" "Only that Bule's cooked up some alibi." "But he's lying." "Or he's got someone to lie for him." "I'm sure the inspector knows what to do if anyone's lying." "Yeah, that's what he said, that they know how to catch them out." "But I can't stand the thought of Anne being mixed up in it." "You're a very good friend to her." "Before I met Anne, I hadn't worked for eight years." "When you're a cleaner and you tell people you've been convicted of theft it's like leprosy." "They don't want you near them." "They don't want you touching their things." "And Anne wasn't like that?" "When I told her, do you know what she said?" "I've never forgotten it." "She said:" ""We've all got stuff in our past that wasn't too clever."" "And she never asked for thanks." "She just gave me back my life." "Why did you tell people?" "They wouldn't have found out." "There's a Londoner talking." "Anyway, it would've been lying to keep silent, wouldn't it?" "Sometimes not speaking is a lie." "I suppose so." "Isn't there anything you could say to make her see sense?" "If there was, don't you think I'd have said it?" "I'm a little tired, that's all." "I don't suppose that spaghetti's still on offer." "I let you sleep for a bit while I popped out." "Thank you." "I thought you could have a proper breakfast for once." " Well, I was thinking of..." " Just once wouldn't hurt." "Excuse me." "Yes?" "James, it's Bill." "Where are you?" "Never mind where I am." "What do you want?" "It's Anne." "I've got to see you now, at once." "Tell your office you can't come in." "Why?" "What's happened to her?" "She's all right." "I'll explain when I see you." "We had a row last night." "A big one." " What about?" " Everything." "That chap telephoned, the policeman." "He wanted to go over your story again." " And?" " Well, I confirmed it, of course." "No problem." "Blah, blah, blah." "Absolutely fine." "I put down the phone and she started." "Sobbing, wailing she can't go on with it, she's ruined all our lives "nothing's going to be right until we've faced it," so on." "Jesus." "When I woke up this morning she was gone." "So the question is would she have gone to Maggie's or straight to the police?" " She'd have gone to Maggie's." " How can you be sure?" "Because I know her." "You shouldn't have come." "It won't matter." "I've already rung the police and left a message." "They'll be here any minute." "And don't tell me I'm wrong." "You know if it had been anybody else but me you'd have done this long ago." " It was you." "Help me, James." "Just tell her." "I can't make her believe me." "Will someone explain what's going on?" "Please, James, just tell her." "Don't." "Anne was responsible for the accident." "She's very, very sorry." "And so am I." "That's what she keeps saying, but it's not true." "Maggie, what do I have to say to you?" "I killed Joe." "No." "That's not right!" "That's not what happened!" "Why are you letting her say this?" "Maggie, that may be what you and the inspector think, but you're wrong." "It wasn't him, it was me." "I did it." "It was his car." "Don't tell me it wasn't!" "I saw it!" " He lied about that, didn't he?" " Yes, he lied and so did James, and so did I, and yes, it was his car and yes, he was there, but I promise you, I was driving." "Mrs. Pierce, I had a message..." "Well, it's quite a gathering." "Well, Mrs. Manning, here I am." " Do you have something to tell me?" " Anne was anxious to know if there had been any news about Joe." "She's been away." "Just a minute, she said... " "I hope you haven't come chasing out here for no reason." "But she didn't mean for her message to be taken as urgent." " Did you, love?" " Now, look!" "I came because you had something to tell me." "What is it?" "Oh, what a shame." "Dragging you out here for nothing." "I am sorry." "She should've waited." "I could've told her what was going on." "Don't do this." "You don't have to do this." "You don't owe them anything, and they wouldn't do it for you." "I don't know what you mean, inspector." "Do what exactly?" "I've become quite an expert on these." "I've been running after them all over the county since your husband died." "It was one just like this, wasn't it, Mrs. Pierce?" "Quite like it, yes." "Although now I've come to look at it close shape of the front was a bit different." "Can't explain how exactly it just made a different outline." "I see." "Because you were so sure before." "Yes, I know." "Funny, isn't it?" "Can you drop me off at the house?" "I'll go up tomorrow." "Of course." "We'll head straight back to London, is that all right?" "No." "I think I'll stay with James." "If that's okay with you, James." "Certainly it is." "Right." "You all right?" "Fine." "She was tired of feeling guilty, and so, in the end, she stayed." "It might have worked." "I think it would've worked but for a chance encounter some months later with an unlikely instrument of fate." "Manning?" " It is James Manning, isn't it?" " Yes, it is." "Angus Burrell." "Trinity Hall, '74." "Yes, of course." "How are you?" " What are you up to?" " Oh, nothing much." "Army since I last saw you, then farming." "Just about managing to feed my descendants." "What about you?" "You're a bigwig solicitor." "Oh, not really." " Family?" " Married, no children." "Very wise." "I've got four of them." "Where have you come from?" " Buckinghamshire." " Is that where you live now?" "No, we have a house down there, at Madeley, near High Wycombe." "Oh, really?" "I've got cousins in Madeley." "Do you know the Bules?" " A bit." " It's a frightful business about Bill, isn't it?" " Why, what's happened?" " Oh, didn't you know?" "He's got cancer." "Riddled apparently." "They've whipped him in." "Doesn't sound as if they'll operate." "We're all just so desperately sorry for the old boy." "Just as he was ready to hand over." "Got the grandsons, of course, but the oldest one's only 12." "We've sent flowers, but it's so difficult to know what to do for the best." "Well, I'd better get going." "Nice to see you." "I hope we can meet up before too long." " Yes, why not." " Okay, bye." "Hello, stranger." "How are you?" "How do you think?" "Sit down." "Thank you." "How's Anne?" " Fine." " Good." "Everything going well?" "Yes." "I'm glad." "We seem to have got away with the Pierce thing." "Yes, thanks..." "Thanks to Maggie." "Well, she didn't like me much." "With good cause." "She took the money, you know." "Of course, I know I'm the villain of the piece, but she did take it." "I don't think either of us are in a..." "In a strong position to criticize her." "Is Anne okay about it all?" "I don't know about okay but it seems it's enough that Maggie knows." "Good." "Look, is there anything..." "Anything I can do for you?" "Anything you want?" " How did you find out I was here?" " I ran into a cousin of yours, Angus Burrell." "It's supposed to be a secret." "Does Anne know?" " No." " Good." "Don't tell her." "She'll find out in the end, but it won't matter then." "She'll find out from your father." "No, he won't say anything, I promise." "Just don't tell her now." "I know you want to." "And you already think you ought to." "You feel it's cheating to keep quiet." "But if you do, you'll only get hurt." "You're very sure of yourself." "James, don't be a Boy Scout all your life." "You've been through one storm, that's enough." "Just leave it in peace." "Let her be happy." "Please." "But of course, I couldn't." "And when he's dead?" "I don't know." "Perhaps he won't be dead." "People don't always die." "Yes, they do." "Why did you have to tell me, James?" "He didn't want me to." "I think he wanted you to read it in the papers when it was finished." "That sounds like him." "Would that have been better, to have kept quiet?" "Oh, James." "Good, better, bad, worse I'd still have been with you." "As it is, I'm going away." "You know me." "I fail every test you set me but you keep setting them." "Why?" "I don't know." "Which monarch was known as "the wisest fool in Christendom"?" "James I?" "Charles I?" "Edward I?" " Shit." " Henry I?" " Hello." " Hello, James." "Please, please, come in." "I was on my way up to the country." "Thought I'd just look in." "Yes, I was just having something to eat." " Bachelor cuisine, I see." " Yes." " Would you like a drink?" " Thank you." " Whiskey?" " Thanks." "How have you been?" " All right." " You're much missed in the village." "I don't think the new people are going to stay there very long." "He's in television." "She's in decorating." "So, of course, they know everything about life in the country." "Thank you." "I feel very badly about not coming before this." "I know we all rather kept clear when you were packing up, but it seemed a bit..." "Of course." "You'll think I'm being stupid but I'm really here because I wanted to tell you that she's been absolutely marvelous." "I'm probably wrong and I don't expect you to see it but I thought it might somehow help to know what a difference she's made." "Yes, yes, I can see it." "Thank you." "How is he?" "Not too good, I'm afraid." "But, you know, he's had, what, 15 months, is it?" "I don't think he'd have had that many weeks without her." "So you do understand, but I sort of have to be glad that she's with him." "Yeah, of course you do." "I'm frightfully sorry about this." "It's just that you love them so much, you see it doesn't matter how grown-up they are or even how they turn out." "I know William's been a bit of a bastard in his time." "He's my son, you see." "I just love him so much." "Yes." "Yes." "James?" "What a night." "Well, I'm sorry to drag you out." "Is Bill here or in the hospital?" "No, he's here." "He doesn't want to..." "He wants to be here." "But you've got some help." "Christ, it's like ER up there." "I wanted to see you." "Richard Rawston came around tonight." "He..." "He told me how wonderful you've been." "He's so dear." "He said he..." "He didn't think it would go on for much longer." "That's why I wanted to come." "To tell you that I loved you." "Oh, James." "No, no." "No, I'm saying it wrong." "I've said it wrong." "I mean I love you, and I'm on your side and I do understand." "I don't know if you think about me at all but if you do, I don't want you to feel sad or guilty." "Not anymore." "I just want you to feel good." "About me, about us, about..." "About our time together." "I think of you." "Well, there, that's it." "I've said it." "You..." "You better go back." "He'll be wondering where you are." "Thank you." " I wonder, did you see this?" " What is it?" ""William Bule, age 39, peacefully in his sleep, after a long illness bravely borne." "Beloved son of Richard and father of Charles and Frederick."" "Poor old Anne." "Is she sorry now, the way it worked out?" "I don't think so." "I wish she was, really but I don't think so." "Well, say I'm sorry if you talk to her." "Yes, yes, thank you, I will." "And me too." "Say I'm sorry when you see her." "Of course I will." "Thank you." " It's nice of you to come." " And you don't mind?" "He was very fond of you, you know." "You don't believe me, but he was." "You going up to the house?" "Oh, no point, really." "Be full of cousins catching up." "No, I don't think I'm gonna go either." " What about his father?" " Oh, he'll be all right." "He's got the boys and their mother." "He quite likes her, actually." "No my time is done." "They're his family now." "So, what will you do?" "Push off back to London, I suppose." "I could give you a lift." "That's kind, but I've got my ticket." "You can drive me to the station, if you like." "Where will you go?" "Back to the flat." "There's no problem." "So..." "So I don't have to worry about you." " No." " Good." "When's your train?" "It doesn't matter, really." "There's one every half an hour." "I don't suppose you've got time for some lunch." "I have if you have."

"Push!" "Oh, God, it's coming!" "Oh, God, it's coming!" "No!" "Please, give him to me." "Please." "No." "Please, my baby." "Please, give him to me." "Damn you!" "When Michael Myers was six years old, he stabbed his sister to death." "For years he was locked up, locked away in Smith's Grove Sanitarium." "But he escaped." "And suddenly..." "Halloween was another word for mayhem." "He needed to wipe out his entire family." "He struck them down at night, and always on Halloween." "The police tried everything to stop him." "He overcame them all and disappeared." "The world thought him dead," "But I..." "I wasn't sure." "I wasn't sure that Michael Myers had died." "Jamie, come to me." "Jamie, come to me." "Jamie..." "Come with me if you want to save your baby." " Oh, God..." "He's coming." " We've got to move, now." "Come on." "No!" "Oh, God." "Come on." "It's okay!" "You can do it." "You can do it." "There!" "It's that way!" "Go, now." "Save your baby!" "Go now!" "Jamie?" "Jamie?" "Hey!" "What are you doing in my truck?" "Run!" "What the hell're you doing in my truck?" "What?" "Run!" "What?" "Danny." "Danny." " Kill for him." " Mommy!" "Danny?" "Mommy's here." "What is it, baby?" "The Voiceman." "He's here." " No one's there, sweetheart." " But I've seen him." "You've been watching way too much TV, you know that?" "He says things." "Bad things." "Like what?" "Okay." "Stay away monsters, stay away ghouls." "Stay away from Danny, you jerks know the rules." "Better?" "Here." "Good night, Danny." "Good night, mom." "It's "Back Talk" with Barry Simms." "Who is that guy?" "We're in the second hour of a special Halloween edition of "Back Talk"." "I'm Barry Simms." "As usual, we're coming to you live from high atop the Sears Tower here in Chicago." "Tomorrow night, we will be coming to you from Haddonfield, the town that has banned Halloween since 1989, when infamous serial killer Michael Myers, his niece, Jamie Lloyd, and about a dozen cops were killed in an explosion." "We have a caller waiting." "Who's next to talk to me?" "I..." "I know this may sound crazy, Barry, but..." "I really think I'm in love with him." "He's so untamed, so uninhibited." "He's everything I've ever wanted in a man." "You know, this is good." "I can see the tabloids now." ""Psycho Lays Nympho:" "The Best Sex He Ever Dismembers"" "Is this the type that you always fall for, lady?" "Any other serial studs on the list?" "You know, Bundy, Manson?" "What about that Dahmer guy?" "I bet..." " I bet you could really cook with him." " No, I just want Michael." "I..." "I wanna know what's behind that mask." "Deep down, I think he's just like you and me, Barry." "He just needs someone to understand him." " Someone to love him." " Yeah, deep down I'm sure that's true." "You're talking about one of this nation's most notorious serial killers like he belongs in some kind of sex seminar." "You know, I hate to be the one to break the news to you, lady, but Michael Myers has been dead for six years." "Now... we've got someone who actually claims to have seen that Michael Myers." " Does this wacko caller have a name?" " My name's Tommy." "I was only eight years old, when I saw him." "But I was one of the lucky ones." "I survived." "There is help out there for people like you." "It's called electro-shock therapy!" "Come on." "You don't really believe that Michael Myers is actually alive." "Michael's work isn't done in Haddonfield." "And soon..." "Very soon..." "He'll come home..." "To kill again." "But this time I'll be ready." "Actually, Tom, I hear Smith's Grove is having a blue light on Vicodin; check that out." "The lines are open, so give me your best shot at 1-800-968-7825." "Now, Dwayne." "What's on your feeble excuse for a mind tonight, Dwayne?" "I'd just like to say that I listen to your show every night, Barry." "I think you're the best." "I can't tell you how excited we are that you'll be paying a little visit to our little town tomorrow night." "So do you have a point to make here, Dwayne, or should I just keep spanking the monkey?" "Barry, you're too much." "I'd just like to say that I understand how things have changed in the 90's." "Gays in the military, cut off your husband's dick and become a national hero." "I just can't see any sense in bringing Halloween back to Haddonfield." "Wink, wink." "Thank you, Dwayne." "You may leave me now." "Next caller." "I say it's about time they had a Halloween revival in this town." "Now my kids can stop driving me crazy." "That maniac's either long dead or long gone." "Either way, I say let's bury this sucker and get the party started." "Party, woo-hoo!" "Beer!" "Yeah!" "Thank you, Ashley." "Barry, what happened to that psychiatrist of his, Loomis?" "I heard the old quack was dead." "Not dead." "Just very much retired." " Good God." "Terence." "Come in." " Christ, what a night." "Not even so much as a sign for five miles on that road!" "That's the beauty of the countryside." "I thrive on it." " God, you look good, Sam." " I feel great." "I had surgery, plastic surgery." "Skin grafts." "It cost a fortune, but at least I don't frighten people anymore." "Don't tell me the revered Rasputin of Smith's Grove has grown complacent in his old age." "Well, I won't believe that for a second." "Well, I can't remember you making house calls, Dr. Wynn, especially at this hour." "And you're right." "I've come to celebrate?" "Why are you listening to that jerk?" "Oh, it's a program about Haddonfield." "I'm taping it." "So, who is responsible for getting this Halloween rally thing together?" "We are, the students of Haddonfield junior college." "But why go to all the trouble of throwing this soiree?" "So what if Halloween has been banned in Haddonfield?" "Who gives a damn?" "We do!" "We live here." "I mean, it's time we got on with our lives." "That's what tomorrow night is all about." " This town is dying, Barry." " Wow." "You know, I've heard Michael Myers blamed for a lot of things tonight, but this is a first." "He's actually killed the economy!" "Look, tomorrow night is going to change all that, especially after you do your broadcast live from campus." "You have reached Haddonfield Emergency Services." "Due to severe weather conditions, all circuits are momentarily busy." "If this is not an emergency..." "You gonna get up there on the stage with old Bar'?" " Uh, yeah, I will." " Yeah?" "Well, I'll see you tomorrow night." "This is "Back Talk" with Barry Simms." "Give me a call at 1-800-968-7825." "That's 1-800-YOU-SUCK." "So come on, all you boogeyman believers out there." "Give me a call." "Call me tonight." "Well, after 32 years, guess who is finally relinquishing his duties as chief administrator of Smith's Grove?" " Good god, you don't mean to say you're—" " Retiring!" "I came by to give you the news myself." "Well, I wish you well, Terence." "It's been in the planning stages for some time now." "To old friends..." "To retirement..." "To new beginnings." "Old friends." "Sam..." "I want you to come back to Smith's Grove." "You should know that it's not wise to play Halloween pranks on me." "It's no prank." "You are the one I've chosen, Sam." "I want you to come back." "After my stroke six years ago they practically had to hold a pistol to my head to get me to retire, but..." "Things are different now." "I'm different." "I've buried the ghosts." "I've buried them in this manuscript." "I don't want to practice medicine anymore." " They're coming!" "They're coming!" " Yeah." "So they're coming, they're coming." "Don't tell me, your name is Joan..." "Joan of Arc, and you're also hearing voices, right?" "Now, who's coming?" "It's Michael." "Michael Myers." "Look, someone, anyone..." "Help me." "Dr. Loomis, are you out there?" " Can you hear me?" "Dr. Loomis, I need your help." " Please, please." "No, no, stop." "Stop that." "What the hell is going on tonight?" "Every looney in the state is calling." "What is this?" "A full moon?" "Oh, man." "I guess Halloween brings out all the wackos." "I can't wait until we get to Haddonfield tomorrow." "Shhh." "Shhhh." "It's okay." "Yes." "It's alright." "Shhh." "Yes." "It's okay." "No!" "Leave us alone!" "You can't have the baby, Michael." "You can't have the baby." "Enough... of this Michael Myers... bullshit!" "Now, you stinking kids got about three seconds to get the hell off my property!" "One!" "Two!" "It was Jamie Lloyd." "That was six years ago, Sam." "You know she died with him in that explosion." " You know it!" " That's what someone would like us to believe." "But I tell you Michael is alive." "I can feel his evil heart beating," "I can see him just as I did all those years ago behind these very same walls." "Staring, staring." "Always growing stronger." "Please." "As my colleague, as my friend, I can't go through this again." "Not alone." "I need your help to stop him." "Dr. Wynn, I didn't expect you in this morning." "Donna, this is Dr. Loomis, the man I was telling you about." "Oh, yes." "It's a pleasure to meet you, doctor." "It will be wonderful to have you back at the hospital." "Dr. Wynn, there's something you should know." "Donna, I'd like you to get Dr. Loomis anything he needs." "Files, tests, records of every treatment we've ever administered to a former patient of ours, Michael Myers." " Michael Myers?" " Is something wrong?" "I just received a phone call." "That girl Jamie Lloyd..." "Her body was found this morning near Haddonfield." "Notify the Haddonfield sheriff;" "tell him we're on the way." "I want the entire staff on alert." "We go to code red lockdown for twenty-four hours." "If that maniac is really out there..." "I plan to bring him back." "Alive." "Yo, G, wassup?" "!" "Barry's my homeboy from Chicago." "Yes, that Barry Simms." "Beth and I are down on this gig." "Danny." "Look, you just bring the posse tonight, and we'll hook you up." "Ace." "Doesn't Danny look cute dressed up as his Uncle Tim?" "Great." "Now I've got a six-year-old gang member for a son." "Perfect." "This is the famous Tim Strode stomach pounder." " You down for the challenge?" " Hit me, G." "Good try, Dan man." "You better stick to orange juice." "Shitheads." "Defacing my property." " I showed them." " John, they were just kids." "Kids, my dear Deborah, are what's ruining this country." "Everywhere you go it's the same damn thing." "There's no goddamn respect." "I rest my case." "Kara, you'll never pass that exam on an empty stomach." ""Cognitive therapy and emotional disorders"." "What are they teaching you in college these days?" "The art of going crazy?" "It's called psychology, mom." "Living in this house is enough to drive anyone crazy." "Oh, yeah?" "Well, who the hell asked you to come back here in the first place?" "I better get Danny to school." "Doesn't show her face around her own family for five years... then comes back and expects us to roll out the red carpet." "You think going to college is gonna make up for your mistakes, girl?" " John, please." " Lay off her, dad." "Let's go, Danny." "Kara, wait, please." "John, can't we just sit down for once and try to be a family?" "Sorry, Mom." "Oh, yeah, that's it, Deborah." "Just keep slipping her the cash." "You know, while you're at it, I got a great idea." "Here." "Why don't you give her all of our goddamn money?" "Why don't you leave her alone?" "Nothing ever changes, does it?" "You've gotta wake up." "I got news for you, girl." "Before you came around, everything was going fine." "Until you landed on our doorstep." "You and that little... bastard of yours." "I see only one bastard in this house." "Danny..." "Get away from her!" " You shut up and stay outta this!" " John, please, don't!" " Kill for him." "You ever talk to me like that again and so help me God..." "You understand?" "Give me the knife, Danny." "Hey..." "Hey." "Make way for the Hardin County Express." "Where's Tim?" "We're supposed to go over the list of events for tonight." "Oh, God." "Did he do that to you?" "Another episode of "Father Knows Best" at the Strode house." "What the hell happened this time?" " What's gotten into you?" " Just glad to see you, that's all." "You guys okay?" "Tonight's the night we bring some life back into this town." "Shit, Beth, why do we have to be the ones to organize this friggin' fair?" "I mean, it's only Halloween." "How many times do I have to tell you." "It's not about Halloween." "Now, Danny, you know Grandpa didn't really hurt me, right?" "Right, Mom." "Well, you'd better go catch your bus." "But tonight when you come home we'll go trick-or-treating, okay?" "Okay." " I love you, Danny." " I love you, Mommy." "Give me a squeeze." "Yeah." "Okay." "I just can't live with her anymore, Deborah." "You don't understand, do you?" "It's not about Kara, it's about you." "I don't care what she's done;" "she's your daughter." "She's not my daughter anymore." "Beth, who's that guy who lives across the hall from you?" "Why, you interested?" "Yeah, right." "He's always staring out his window." "Last night, I caught him watching me." "That must be Tommy." "On a weirdness scale of one to ten, he rates about a 13." "Supposedly some scary shit happened to him, when he was a kid." "Messed up his head pretty bad." "He's harmless, though." " He's probably just lonely." " Or horny." "Something you probably haven't felt in a while." "Tim..." "Happy Halloween, Mrs. Blankenship!" "Best part about living in that boarding house is that crazy old lady wouldn't hear a truck drive through her living room." "Please." "Look, you've gotta listen to me!" "They're coming!" "They're coming!" "Yeah, so they're coming, they're coming." "Don't tell me." "Your name is Joan..." "Joan of Arc and you're also hearing voices, right?" "Come on." "Now, who's coming?" "It's Michael." "Michael Myers." "Look, someone, anyone, help me." "Dr. Loomis, are you out there?" "Can you hear me, Dr. L..." "It's Michael." "Michael Myers." "...your attention, please." "Bus 611 from Pontiac..." "Look, someone, anyone, help me." "Dr. Loomis, are you out there?" "Can you hear me, Dr. Loomis?" "I need your help." " God, please, help." " May I have your attention, please?" "Bus 34 from Peoria, Russelville and Gardner... with through service to Chicago, Illinois... will be arriving in five minutes." "Ticketed passengers, please wait inside the door until arrival of bus number 34." "Can I help you, sir?" "Can you tell me if a bus arrived from Pontiac last night?" "Sure did." " Are you looking for someone?" " Thank you." "May I have your attention, please?" "Bus number 34, service to Chicago, has arrived and is now ready for boarding through the side doors." "Jesus." "Shhh." "Shhh." "No." "It's okay." "It's okay." "It's okay." "It's okay, man." "It's okay." "Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh." "Good God, what's that?" "It's... his mark." "He's come home." "Dear God." "Jamie." "Only God can help her now, sir." "Sam, don't." "Let them take care of her." " Doctor Loomis." " Yeah." "They told me you'd be coming." "Now I suggest you go right on back to your crackpot asylum." "You people got no business in my town." "Michael Myers is my business." "It's been quiet here for six years and that's the way it's gonna stay, and the last thing I need now is you going around spouting off ghost stories." "I suppose it was a ghost that did all this, then." "It was a ghost talking on the radio last night." "That's a ghost being carried out of here right now?" "!" "Yo, check it out!" "Tonight's gonna be killer." "Kara, I swear." "One of these days, you're gonna get lost in that thing." " I can't find my term paper." " So copy someone else's." "I do it all the time." "Works primo." "Oh, shit!" "Looks like your little boy has got himself quite an imagination." "He's been having nightmares." "I think it's cool." " Must be some nightmares." " Beth, we got work to do." "Hey..." "Are you gonna be okay?" ""Thorn"?" "I need to see a doctor." " What seems to be the problem?" " Uh, it's my baby." "There's been an accident." " What kind of accident?" " Get me a doctor!" "Now!" "Security?" "Sam, there's nothing you can do for her now." "Dr. Loomis?" "Yeah." "Dr. Loomis..." "Thank God you're here." "You heard her last night, didn't you?" "It was Jamie." "I'm sorry." " I don't know you, do I?" " I'm Tommy." "Tommy Doyle." "Laurie Strode, Jamie's mother, was baby-sitting me the night when..." "Tommy Doyle." "What're you doing here?" "Please..." "I need to know the truth." "Michael Myers has come home, hasn't he?" "What do you know about Michael?" "I know he's still out there." "People in this town, they want us to believe he's dead, but I know." "I've always known." "She's out there fighting for her life." "If she should die..." " She is the last of his bloodline." " No, Dr. Loomis." "She's not the last." "Oh, God." "There's a family." "Relatives of the people who adopted Laurie:" "the Strodes." "They're living in the Myers house." "Dr. Loomis, about Michael..." " It's just a theory of mine of..." " That's him." "Meet me tonight." "9:00 at the campus rally." "Tommy, wait!" "Wait!" "Tommy, wait!" "Oh, there you are." "Who is that boy?" "An old friend." "Great." "I'm very sorry, Mrs. Strode." "Is everything all right?" "Who are you?" "I came to help your family." "Shh." "Shh." "It's okay." "Okay." "Steven." "You like that name?" "Yeah, I think it suits you." "It's okay." "It's alright." "I won't let anything happen to you." "For 15 years I've been obsessed to find out what was going on inside of him." "It's been my life's work, and my ultimate failure." "This force, this thing that lived inside of him came from a source too violent, too deadly for you to imagine." "It..." "It grew inside him." "Contaminating his soul." "It was... pure evil." " What makes you think he'll come back here?" " This house... is sacred to him." "He has all his memories here." "His rage!" "Mrs. Strode..." "I beg of you." "Don't let your family suffer the same fate that Laurie and her daughter suffered." " Jamie?" "I..." "I thought that she—" " She's been found." "Outside Haddonfield, stabbed." "What should I do?" "I really am sorry, but you haven't a moment to lose, Mrs. Strode." "Michael Myers has come back to Haddonfield to kill." "Strode Real Estate." "John, something terrible's happened." "What do you want now, Deborah?" "A man came by the house, a psychiatrist by the name of Loomis." "And he told me about the terrible things that happened here in our house." "Deborah, what the hell are you doing?" "Talking to strangers, letting 'em in our house?" "John, they found Jamie Lloyd this morning." "Someone tried to kill her." "Deborah, I don't know what the hell you're talking about." "You ought to stop watching those damn TV talkshows." "I'm getting the children out of here." "At least until I know what's going on." "John, I want you to come with us." "You know." "You know, Deborah." "You've lost it." "You know that, Deborah?" "You've just lost it." "The reason you moved us into this house..." "Your brother could never sell it because of what happened here, could he?" "And you knew." "And you didn't tell us, John." "You knew." "Goddamnit!" "Happy Halloween, little girl." "Hello?" "We want the child." "Who is this?" "Oh, Michael." "I'm coming." "Yeah, I'm..." "Get ready, oh, yes!" "Yeah." "Yes." "I'm coming, all right, and you'd better be there at the Halloween Harvest fair." "Let's do it, together." "Sorry." "Mom?" "I'm home!" "Hello?" "Mom!" "Mom?" "Mom?" "Danny?" "Mom?" "Are you there?" "What are you doing here?" "I'm your neighbor from across the street." " Tommy Doyle." " What are you doing with my son?" "And... and where's my mother?" "She wasn't here... when Danny came home." "Danny, go downstairs." "But Tommy's my new friend." "He knows all about dinosaurs." "You're in danger." "Come with me." "Hi, Mrs. B!" "You don't really expect us to stay here, do you?" "I want you to watch your house." "You can see everything from that window." "Do you know how insane this is?" "Who am I supposed to be looking for?" "Him." "Yeah." "It's okay." "It's okay, Steven." "Mommy!" "Mom!" "Not now, Danny." "Here you go." "Come on." "What?" "Here." "Let me try." "There." "There." "See?" "All it takes is a mother's touch." "Uncle Michael, please don't hurt me." "Oh, God, please forget me." "Your work is done now, Jamie." "I let you down again, Jamie." "I never should have left you." "Runes were a kind of... early alphabet... that originated in Northern Europe about 500 B.C." "They were symbols carved out of stone or pieces of wood, used in pagan rituals to portend future events and invoke magic." "Of all the runes, Thorn had the most negative influence." "Among the ancient druids, Thorn represented a demon that spread sickness, destroyed crops, and brought death to hundreds of thousands of people." "According to a Celtic legend, one child from each tribe was chosen to be inflicted with a curse of Thorn." "To offer the blood sacrifices of its next of kin on the night of Samhain." "Halloween." "The sacrifice of one family meant sparing the lives of an entire tribe." "So why are you so concerned about us if Michael's only out to kill his family?" "In his mind, anyone living in his house is his family." "For years I've been convinced there must be some reason." "Some method behind Michael's madness." "And the common link I found is Thorn." "The druids were also great mathematicians and astronomers." "The Thorn symbol is actually constellation of stars that appears from time to time on Halloween night." "Whenever it appears, he appears." "I've traced it back to 1963, when Michael murdered his sister, Judith." "The next time was in 1978;" "Michael escapes from Smith's Grove." "It happened a decade later, and the year after that." "He kills again." "Now Jamie says Michael is back, and for the first time in 6 years," "Thorn reappears." "Coincidence?" "What would happen if he succeeded, if he killed the last member of his family?" "Well, Michael's power would end, and the curse would be passed on to another child." "I think that's why these people, whoever they are, are after Jamie's baby." "To make it Michael's final sacrifice." "Where are you going?" "To find the only man who can stop him before it's too late." "Oh, no." "Where's Danny?" "Danny?" "Danny!" "Mrs. Blankenship!" "Have you seen..." "Danny, don't ever walk off without telling me where you're going!" "Take him upstairs." "Lock the door and wait till I get back." "Kara..." "Whatever you do..." "Don't go back to your house." "You let him get to her!" "How could you?" "Dr. Loomis, during surgery we discovered that Jamie's uterus was hemorrhaging, and we found this." "It's placental fluid." "Good God in heaven, do you mean to say—" "I estimate she gave birth no more than 24 hours ago." "Then the question is:" "Where is the baby?" "I think I..." "I may already know." "Do you know why we celebrate Halloween?" "Because that's when we go trick-or-treating and get candy." "Oh, well..." "Yes, but..." "A long, long time ago, it was a night of great power, when the days grew short and the spirits of the dead returned to their homes to warm themselves by the fireside." "All across the land huge bonfires were lit." "Oh, there was a marvelous celebration." "People danced and they played games." "And they dressed up in costumes." "Hoping to ward off the evil spirits." "Especially the boogeyman." "What's the boogeyman?" "Come on, Danny." "Say good night to Mrs. Blankenship." " Good night, Mrs. Blankenship." " He hears the voice, you know." "Just like the other boy that lived in that house." "What are you talking about?" "I was baby-sitting with him that night." "Little Mikey Myers that lived across the street." "And that's when the voice came, the night he murdered his sister." "Michael heard a voice?" "It told him to kill his family." " Where the hell's Barry?" "Let's go!" " Don't get star-struck on me now." "We got a real agenda here, and Barry is gonna help us get the message out." "Hey, look..." "Helloooo, Haddonfield!" " Barry!" " WKNB presents "Back Talk" with Barry Simms." " live from Haddonfield, Illinois," " Barry!" "the home of Michael Myers!" "Deborah!" "I'm home!" "Thanks for the dinner." "Come out, come out..." "Wherever you are." "Goddamnit." "She actually left." "I know what's going on." "It must be the boogeyman." "Here I come, boogeyman." "'Cause, you know, I am really scared." "What the hell?" "The power's off." "Tell me, kids, how's it feel to... finally pull Halloween out of the proverbial Haddonfield closet?" "What we're saying here is... we will no longer let the powers that be control our minds." "For years..." "Halloween has represented everything that's wrong with Haddonfield." "But Michael Myers is long gone." "There is NO boogeyman!" "Whoa!" "Does she get this riled up in the sack, Tim?" "I bet she wears crotchless panties and barks like a dog." "Beth..." "What do you say, honey?" "You and me, uh..." "As I was saying..." "We have to stop acting out of fear." "Just look at Tim's family." "They live in the Myers house." "You do?" "We do?" "Uh... yeah, we do." "Great house." " Strong wood." " I see." "You mean to tell me you actually live... in the house... of the most brutal mass murderer in history?" "This is the Barry Simms show." "And when we return... we'll be coming at you live... from the one... the only..." "Myers house." "How's that for a Halloween shock-fest?" "How far to your house, kid?" "About half a mile, but I don't know if my folks..." "Good, I'll meet you there in five." "What about the kids?" "We're supposed to throw all the candy." "Phone!" "Relax your crack, sweetheart." "Quick tootle around the old household and we'll be right on back." "Pull the van out back, so that I can sneak out of here nice and quietly." "Oh, no." "No, no, really, really." "You're too good to me." "Really." "No." "Thanks for putting me in the middle of this cheap-shit country bumpkin outfit, Paul." "I really appreciate it!" "My fans expect better than this." "No, no." "Look, you tell that penny-pinching whiner Mike Sarducci that when I get back," "I am personally gonna cut off his balls and wear 'em as earrings." "Where's the goddamn van?" "God!" "Oh, no, I'm trotting out for a cheeseburger." "I'm taking the show to the real Myers house, where we should have done it in the first place." "Ten minutes in that house and I'll have every fruitcake medium in the country calling in trying to channel the spirit of that pussy Michael Myers." "Sure, we can do another show about him." "Kick the audience in the face enough and they'll lick you all over." "I'll call you when I get back, Paul." "Bye-bye." "Where the f..." "What happened to the lights?" "Do you really think Barry's gonna show up?" "Let's hope not." "I'm sorry he turned out to be such an asshole." "It's okay." "Where is everyone?" "Mom?" "Kara?" "They're probably at the fair, which is where we should be." "Beth..." "What you said before about Michael Myers living in our house." "Is that really true?" "It was a cold Halloween night." "He stood in the shadows, watching through the windows... as his sister and her boyfriend made love." "Then he crept inside... picked up a huge butcher knife... and made his way up these stairs." "He raised the knife up behind her..." "She turned around... and he stabbed her!" "Cut it out, Beth!" "I really didn't know that Michael Myers lived in my house, okay?" "It freaks me out." "I'm sorry." "I was just fooling around." "It's okay." "Let's get the candles." "Just a minute." "Mommy, it's raining." "It's raining red." "Mommy, it's raining." "It's raining red." "Mommy, it's raining." "It's raining red." "Mommy, it's raining red." "Mommy, it's raining." "It's raining red." "Mommy, it's raining." "It's raining red." "Mommy, it's raining." "It's raining red." "Mommy, it's raining red." "It's warm." "Why is it warm?" "Dr. Loomis." "It's happening." "Your sister would kill us if she knew we did it in her bed." "Hey, that was your idea." "I am bad, aren't I?" "Only when you wear crotchless panties and bark like a dog." "Where are you going?" "I gotta take a shower." "You know, to stay fresh." "Watch out for the boogeyman." "Hey, Beth, can you bring a towel in here?" "I'm freezing." "Where are you when I need you, honey?" "Thanks." "I'll be in in a minute." "Mommy?" "Hold on a second, Danny." "Danny..." "Come to me..." " Hello?" " Mom?" "Wait, who is this?" "No, this is Beth." "What are you doing there?" " Do you know where my mother is?" " She's not home." "No one is." "What's wrong?" "Is Tim with you?" "He's in the shower." "I'm across the street." "I can see you." "Beth, I want you to listen to me." "Get Tim and get out of that house." "Right now." "Carol, what the hell is going on?" "Beth, look out!" "There's someone in the room." "He's right behind you!" "No!" "No!" "Danny, no!" "Danny!" "Danny." "Danny?" "Danny?" "Danny." "Mommy?" "It's okay." "Danny, run!" "Danny." "Come to mommy." "Danny, please." "The baby." "Where's the baby?" "Please!" "Open the door!" "Please!" "Open the door!" "Someone help us!" "Please, somebody help us!" "Help us, please!" "Help us, please!" "Get 'em upstairs!" "Now!" "Where's the baby?" "He's gone." "Who else knew I had the baby?" " No one." " No!" "There had to be someone else..." " Who knew?" " Nobody knew except me and..." "Danny." "Come to me." "Danny." "Come to me." "Come Danny, come to me." "Danny, no." "No." "Please." "Careful with the girl." "Kara!" "Wynn." "Mrs. Blankenship!" "Oh, God, hurry!" "We have to..." "Hello, dear." "Where is she?" "Where's Kara?" "I feel like I've been drugged." "We have been drugged." "Why are they doing this?" "Why didn't they just kill us?" "It's his game." "And I know where he wants to play it." " Dr. Loomis, you know that can't stop Michael." " Nothing will stop Michael." "But..." "Wynn." "I tried to tell you in the hospital." "I think Michael is under the influence of an evil rune." "Thorn." "I saw the symbol marked up where we found Jamie stabbed." "Well, there are runes of light..." "Protection." "If Thorn could somehow be trapped by these runes the energies could cancel themselves out." "The evil could be destroyed." "You wait here." "Don't go anywhere until I come back." "Wynn." "About time, Dr. Loomis." "Welcome to your fate." "The time has come for you to know the truth." "The time has come for you to join us." "Why now?" "After Jamie escaped last night, I knew that she would come to you, and I knew that you would lead us to her baby." "Her very special baby." "I needed her, just as I need you now." "It's your destiny, Sam." "It lives inside you." "It always has." "You know that, don't you?" "You... are... a madman." "Look around you, Sam." "Madness everywhere." "Famine, war, a great plague." "These are signs that we must restore balance to the natural order of things." " We merely provide the means." " Michael?" "We've given him the power." "The gift of Thorn." "I am its deliverer." "I follow it, act as its guardian." "I protect Michael, watch over him." "And now it's time for another." "Now it's time for you...." "Dr. Loomis." "I thought Michael was a monster." "But you..." "Leave him there." "It's his office now." "Spirits and powers of the flame." "Attend and witness this ritual." "Bear our gifts to Thorn." "Open us to the path of darkness." "By these runes transform us." "Let the hammer descend on the chosen one to whom we offer this sacrifice of innocent blood." "And then, Danny, your journey begins." "Kill for him." "No." "Michael, your final sacrifice." "Michael, you can make him stop it." "Don't kill the baby." "You can stop it." "You know whose baby it is, don't you?" " Michael!" " The baby is yours, isn't it?" "Isn't it, Michael?" "Back off!" " Untie her." " Do as he says." "Do it!" "You should join us, you have talent." "Shut up." "Danny, come on." "Go!" "Okay?" "Let's go." "Run!" "Go!" "Go, go!" "Move it!" "Go, go!" "Shit!" " Come on!" " It's not working." "Come on." "It's not working!" "It's not..." "Back up from the gates!" "Get 'em out of here!" "Get in there!" "Go on, get in!" "Mommy!" "Samhain." "Tommy!" "Where is he?" "It worked." "The power of the runes stopped him." "Michael." "What have they done to you?" " Where do we go now?" " As far away from Haddonfield as possible." " Come with us." " No, I have a little business to attend to here." "Michael." "Michael." "It's all over." "It's all over!" "It's all over now." "Michael." "Michael's gone." "It's your game now, Dr. Loomis."

"No!" "Come on!" "Open the door!" "Open the door!" "Let us in!" "Let us in!" "Get up." "Give me another day." "One more day." "One more day isn't going to make any difference." "Please!" "Just give me some more meds!" "You had your meds, Hal." "You're getting worse." "Put me back in quarantine." "Just till tomorrow." "I'll get better." "You're not gonna get better, Hal." "I'll take the walk." "It's my choice." "Not today." "You can't do this." "It's my choice!" "It's my job." "Make your peace." "Mason!" "He tested positive, Sam." "He has a choice." "Let him walk." "He'll just come back." "They always do." "We can't let him infect the rest of the colony." "Mason." "This isn't right." "This is survival!" "It's nothing personal." "His time was up." "That's all, Sam." "In this place, we live in fear of the common cold." "The last flu wiped out 20 people in less than a week." "So, now we've got rules." "You get sick, you go into quarantine." "If you don't get better, you've got a choice." "A bullet or a long walk in the snow." "At least that's how it's supposed to work." "After the snow started, the lucky ones found places like this." "A place where life could exist underneath the ice." "When I got here, we were hundreds living on top of each other." "Everyone just thankful they'd made it out of the cities alive." "When the food ran out, most of the people in the world died, but not the people in this place where seeds were stored underground, kept safe for a better day." "Some people, they talk about a place, a paradise with blue skis and birds as far as you can see." "Those are just stories." "Everybody knows that." "So, we hold on." "Hibernating, like the last dark age." "But it's not the cold we need to worry about." "It's each other." "Briggs." "What's up, Sam?" "I need to talk to you." "Look, don't start." "Hal knew the rules." "His blood test was positive and he wasn't getting any better." "We don't have the meds to keep fighting this flu anymore." "And we can't risk another outbreak." "But why do we leave it to the one guy who loves to pull the trigger?" "Look, this colony started with over 400 people." "And I have done too much surface time with a shotgun in one hand and a shovel in the other." "I've had my fill of blood in the snow." "You understand?" "Now, Mason is just doing what has to be done." "Yeah, but he's not doing it right." "He didn't give him a choice." "Hal wanted to walk, not take a bullet." "Well, right now, we have a bigger issue." "Calling Colony Five, this is Colony Seven." "Over." "Colony Five, this is Colony Seven." "Come on, guys." "Over." "What's up?" "SOS loop from Colony Five." "SOS?" "SOS." "You sure it's Five?" "It's got to be." "It's their code." "Marcus always checks in." "When was the last time you had contact with him?" "About seven days." "They said they were gonna be down for radio repairs." "And they've been dead air until about an hour ago." "Okay." "General meeting in the main hall in 30 minutes." "Okay." "For who?" "For everyone." "I want you to go see Viktor, Sam." "He's having a problem with the livestock." "Right." "All colonists report to the main hall in 30 minutes." "I repeat." "All colonists please report to the main hall in 30 minutes." "Thank you." "You gonna try and save these rabbits, too?" "Another stillborn litter." "Hmm." "They need protein, just like us." "How many are left?" "Twelve in all." "But this here is the only female." "You know you're screwed when even the rabbits won't fuck." "Let me see what I can get from Kai." "Mason." "What's going on?" "What are you talking about?" "What happened up there with Hal?" "Sam come running to you?" "What gives you the right to take away the man's choice?" "His choice was made when he tested positive." "That is not how we do things." "We give people a choice." "It's theirs to make regardless of the outcome." "Till they come back." "Till the food runs out." "It's not a problem until it's a problem." "You gave me this job to do." "Now let me do it." "Mason." "You know..." "You'd think for someone you served with, you'd give them a little more respect." "Almost had you." "No, you didn't." "What do you need?" "Soy pellets." "The rabbits aren't doing so hot." "Where's this?" "Uh, somewhere in Spain, I think." "You never give up, do you?" "No." "No one thought Briggs could fix that link to that old satellite, but he did." "So?" "So, all that weather modification tech is out there." "It's just buried under the ice." "Well, that's where it should stay." "Buried." "Sam, somewhere, someone is working on a fix." "And when there's a thaw, I'm gonna find it." "Take me with you?" "There's not a lot of choice down here." "You'll have to do." "Hal's gone." "Well, we live and die by our rules, Sam." "We should get to the meeting." "Breathe slowly." "You can't cough." "Okay?" "Hey, I fixed that crack in the north vent for ya." "Thanks, Sam." "That's great." "Dex?" "You all right?" "Yeah." "I'm good." "You're not looking so hot." "No, no." "It's good." "I'm fine." "Maybe you should go back to your room, huh?" "All right." "Listen up." "A few hours ago, we received a distress signal from Colony Five." "They haven't responded to any radio calls." "Given that Colony Three shuttered last year," "I think they're worth checking up on." "Cooper, I want you to see what kind of radio parts we have to spare." "Okay." "We've got nothing to spare." "Mason, we're sending a team and I'm leading it." "I need two volunteers." "What if they've been hit with a new flu?" "We'll take all precautions." "We'll go into quarantine when we get back." "That's what it's there for." "Quarantine's a fucking joke." "We're barely surviving here." "We need to take care of our own, Briggs." "We made a pact with Colony Five and we need to look after each other." "Yes, we did." "And we're going." "End of discussion." "Dexter." "I need a skilled set of hands with me out there." "I'll go." "Dex needs to stay in case the turbines break down." "Thank you, Sam." "Anyone else?" "Look at me." "Anyone?" "Take me." "Graydon, no." "Please don't go." "Now, I know I haven't logged a lot of surface time, but I can do it." "Thank you, Graydon." "You'll do well." "All right." "Kai will be in charge until I'm back." "Rations are still in effect, although I've authorized regular portions for the children." "Work details continue as usual." "We'll be in touch by radio." "She's sick." "Come on." "Get her out of here." "Quarantine until further notice." "It's okay, sweetie, don't worry." "It's okay." "You really should have said something earlier, Dex." "They're done, Briggs." "They're sick." "And we follow procedure." "They just put the whole colony at risk." "We need to give them the test right now." "We're gonna wait until I get back and see if they've done any better." "Until then, Kai's in charge." "You really think she can make the tough calls?" "That's really not your decision to make, is it?" "Are we clear?" "Crystal." "Mom!" "Oh, my..." "You okay?" "That fuckin' dream." "It wasn't your fault." "Would you come back to bed?" "The world froze a long time ago." "So long ago that I can't remember the warmth of the sun." "I heard the stories growing up." "How the planet grew hotter as our fuel was burned." "How we made towers to work the weather." "But the truth is, one day it started to sn." "And it never stopped." "Hey!" "Is that what I think it is?" "Weather modification." "Never seen one this close before." "You think it still works?" "It did its damage a long time ago." "We got to cross this thing?" "Unless you wanna go down there." "We make our way around to the left!" "Yeah." "Whoa!" "Watch your step." "Guys!" "What is that?" "What the hell's he doing out here?" "We got to keep moving." "God, how cool would it be to fly one of these things, huh?" "Hey, Briggs, what was this used for?" "Medevac." "It used to airlift people to safety." "I wish I could've seen that." "Briggs to Colony Seven." "Cooper, come in." "Colony Seven here." "Good to hear your voice, Briggs." "Copy that." "Good to hear yours." "We're camped out at the helicopter for the night, so we should reach Colony Five by noon tomorrow." "What about you?" "Got any news?" "Dex and Elena are still in quarantine." "And they're both getting worse." "They have all the symptoms." "Mason's pushing for the te." "Mason knows that's against protocol." "That's why I left Kai in charge." "Yeah, he's not too happy about that." "I know." "There's gonna be some changes made when I get back." "Cooper, you have my authority to use force if necessary." "Mason is not to take them for a walk without my consent." "I understand." "You guys be safe out there, okay?" "Over and out." "Over and out." "Give you some time alone with that, or..." "Maybe I do." "You know, Sam, we're not too far from where I found you." "Yeah." "What were you doin' out here?" "It was a long time ago." "Go on, tell him." "We got all night." "Uh..." "My family, um, we were holed up about 40 miles north of here, in a mine." "Uh, just us and some mining families, a couple old-timers." "We got supplies in there, shoveled the entrance out every day." "Eventually, the supplies ran out." "Food ran out." "So, after we ate the horses and the dogs, my dad and the other men went into the city to go get some help," "but they never came back, so..." "And people started dying." "And the way things were going, I needed to get them out of there, my mother and my sister." "I figured we had a better chance out there." "Anyway, uh, the storm came up and we got separated, and I never saw them again." "I'd be dead too if Briggs hadn't found me." "You were a boy, Sam." "You did the best you could." "Yeah." "Hey, what is this?" "You guys, that's blood!" "We shouldn't be going in there!" "We came here to help." "That's what we're gonna do." "You smell that?" "Smoke." "You know, maybe one of us should just stay topside, huh?" "We stick together." "You're coming." "Right." "Shit." "How many were there at last count?" "Fifty." "Not so much of a welcoming committee this time." "What the fuck happened here?" "Hey." "You remember how to use this?" "Yeah." "You sure?" "Let's move, okay?" "This way." "They're all dead." "We don't know that for sure." "What the fuck was that?" "Someone's alive." "It's coming from over here." "Wait, wait, wait, wait." "In here." "This door has taken a lot of punishment." "Shit." "Hey, come on." "Let's get the hell out of here, huh?" "Hey, find a spine, boy." "You got it?" "What, is he dead?" "Calm down!" "Calm down!" "Calm down!" "Don't!" "Don't!" "Easy." "Easy." "Please don't." "We're here to help." "Please." "Don't, don't." "It's okay." "Calm down." "Are you hurt?" "Are they gone?" "Who?" "The door!" "Lock the door." "Get the door!" "He needs water." "No, easy." "Go easy." "Easy, easy." "What's your name?" "Leland." "Leland." "Have you got any food?" "I'm so hungry." "Yeah." "I've got something here." "How long have you been locked in here?" "I don't know." "Days." "Is there anyone else?" "Is anyone else alive?" "Define alive." "That's good." "We're from Colony Seven." "We got your distress signal." "We came to help." "Leland." "What happened?" "We fixed the steel grid to a new antenna." "When it finally worked, its reach was amazing." "We received a partial transmission." "You're gonna love this." "We have modid a weather tor and successfully reverd the cooling process." "Clouds have receded to a three-mile radius and are expanding." "We have thawed permafrost." "We have melted pack ice." "We now have soil." "We have su." "We now have the conditions to grow." "If anyone out there can hear this, I repeat our location." "Our location, latitude 47 degrees north, two..." "Is that it?" "Is that all there is?" "We triangulated the transmission, sent a team to find the source." "But they never found it." "But somebody found them." "And followed them right back here." "Who?" "Leland, who followed you?" "Leland, look at me." "Over here." "Show me on this map." "Where did that transmission come from?" "Point." "We're right here." "North, on this line." "And 25 degrees is here." "South, there." "Listen to me." "We're gonna take you back to Colony Seven with us." "No!" "Please, sir." "I'm gonna stay here." "Right here behind this door." "What if they're still here?" " There's no one here." "We only knew that you were here because of the knocking." "Yeah, but I didn't knock." "They're still here!" "They're still here." "Radio Colony Seven, you tell them we're on our way back." "It's time for us to pack up and go." "Take anything we can carry." "Okay." "It's okay." "It's all right." "Calling Colony Seven." "Colony Seven, can you read me?" "Over." "Colony Seven, come in." "This is Graydon calling in." "Can you read me?" "Over." "It's not working." "All right." "We're too deep underground." "We'll radio ahead when we get back topside." "You, Leland, you're coming with us." "You don't understand!" "It's safe behind this door!" "There's 50 colonists, you're the only one behind it." "I couldn't open it." "I just couldn't." "Get him on his feet." "Come on." "Let's go." "What the fuck was that?" "Shit." "He locked himself back inside." "Come on." "Graydon, let's go!" "We shouldn't be here." "This has nothing to do with us." "Turn that light out." "My God." "We got to go, Sam." "Now!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Come on!" "Fuck." "Come on, Sam." "Come on." "Damn." "Graydon." "He's gone." "We better move." "Go on." "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Come on!" "Fuck!" "I'm out!" "Come on!" "Go!" "Go!" "Briggs!" "Give me your hand!" "There's still people alive down there." "We can't help them, Sam." "We can't help them." "Briggs, don't you think we should keep moving?" "No!" "The temperature's dropping too fast." "We won't make it!" "Come on." "Briggs?" "Yeah?" "Those people..." "How could they..." "I don't know, Sam." "When people are desperate, they'll do horrible things to survive." "I told you I was an army captain during the relief effort, right?" "Yeah." "Yeah, well, I never told you what I saw..." "When..." "When people lose control like that." "When we go feral..." "There's nothing human left in us at all." "We might as well just be a pack of wild dogs." "See, during the relief effort, we had, uh, 20,000 people corralled in a stadium." "Food got handed out." "And the sick got treated." "But when the food ran out..." "The people with guns started taking things from the people without guns." "And then, when there was nothing left to take," "they took people upstairs and decided who would live and who would die." "It was..." "It was the hunger." "People couldn't take it." "It just drove them mad." "We tried to stop it." "We really did, but..." "We couldn't." "Me and Mason, he was my squad back then." "We left." "Tried to find a place where we could make sure that nothing like that would happen." "You did." "Maybe." "You did." "When we get back, we'll patch into the satellite." "Take a look." "If they've got the sun, we've got the seeds." "No." "No, no, no!" "How many?" "Twenty!" "Maybe more!" "It's hard to tell!" "Oh, fuck." "Our footprints!" "Shit!" "We're going to lead them right back to the colony." "We'll stop them at the bridge." "Come on." "Come on!" "Briggs, what are you doing?" "Stopping 'em!" "Block the wind!" "No!" "What?" "The fuse is out!" "Fuck!" "I'm going to go and relight it." "What the fuck are you doing?" "Briggs." "Listen to me." "Listen to me." "We're fine." "I light it." "I come back." "We go home." "It's too late!" "Briggs!" "Come on!" "Get it done!" "Come on." "Come on!" "Come on, you dogs!" "Please!" "Just give her the goddamn test!" "No more tests." "No!" "Oh, no." "No." "Mason!" "What?" "Things are going to change around here." "Are you fucking crazy?" "No." "I'm seeing things clearly." "You know the test is bullshit." "The delay just puts us all at risk." "Drop your gun!" "Help!" "Help!" "Sam?" "Sam!" "Fuck!" "Fuck." "Sam!" "Sam?" "Sam?" "Come on." "Come on." "Hey." "You're okay." "You're safe." "How long have I been out?" "A few hours." "Sam?" "Where is he?" "Where's my boy?" "I tried." "No." "No." "No." "We lost Briggs, too." "What are you doing?" "There's been a change in command." "We need to take precautions." "Briggs' rules don't work anymore." "We need to be tougher to survive." "From now on, rations will be cut in half." "Anyone showing signs of sickness will be tested immediately." "If you don't pull your weight, you don't eat." "Mason." "Where's Kai?" "What happened, Sam?" "What happened out there?" "They killed them." "Everybody at Colony Five is dead." "Briggs' come off the bridge." "Stopped them." "Stopped who?" "These people..." "They slaughtered everybody for food." "Do you understand?" "And they're coming here." "And unless we get out of here, they will kill us." "And where are we going to go?" "There's a thaw." "I know where it is." "Okay?" "I can get us out of here." "I can show you where it is." "He's in shock." "I can lead you to where it is." "Give him a sedative." "Let me show you where it is!" "No one is going anywhere." "Viktor, let's go topside." "You need to listen to me!" "Viktor!" "Are you with me?" "Mason, you need to listen to me." "Mason." "Mason!" "Sam." "No." "Nothing." "You know, Sam's a lot of things, but he's not a liar." "If he says something's coming for us, we better be ready for 'em." "Keep an eye on the monitors." "Sam!" "Kai, are you okay?" "Oh, my God!" "Did he hit you?" "It's fine." "Did he hit you?" "I'm fine!" "Are you okay?" "Give me a sec." "Come here." "What happened out there?" "I got to show you something." "Bring up two." "Nothing." "This is bullshit." "Mason!" "Sam got away." "And how did he do that?" "Rowan." "That little bastard." "Come on!" "Let's go!" "Forty-seven, 55." "What are you looking for?" "A thaw." "Come on." "Sam." "Sam, there is nothing there." "I have already looked." "No, it's here." "I know it's here." "Sam." "Come on." "There it is." "Holy shit." "Look." "Oh, my God!" "That's got to be like eight miles of blue sky." "Let's go." "Come on." "They took the weapons, the maps, everything." "Shit." "They didn't take these." "What are you doing, Sam?" "Sam, what are you doing?" "We need to tell the others and we need to get the hell out of here." "Let's go." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on, come on." "Come on." "Going somewhere?" "Yeah." "We're getting everyone together and we're leaving." "No one's leaving." "Go fuck yourself, Mason." "Hey." "If we don't leave right now..." "Briggs is gone." "I'm running things now." "When everyone's dead, huh?" "And you're king of the fucking castle, then what?" "I'll still be running things." "Oh, shit." "We're too late." "Oh, my God, my God, it's Dex." "You believe me now?" "Anyone who can fire a weapon, get 'em to the entrance." "We'll hold them there." "And get everybody else to the vault!" "Let's go." "Come on!" "Come on, buddy." "Let's go." "It's going to be all right." "Come on, guys!" "Let's go, let's go!" "You led them straight to us." "They're breaking the hinges." "Fuck." "Behind us!" "They're already inside." "In the vents." "Mason!" "Here they come!" "Viktor!" "Fall back!" "No!" "No more running!" "Everybody in the main hall!" "I'm out." "We couldn't make it to the vault." "What the hell is going on out there?" "They're inside." "They're everywhere." "There's no time!" "No!" "Don't!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "Let us in!" "Let us in!" "What are you doing?" "Saving our lives." "No!" "Let us in!" "Mason!" "Doors." "You locked us out of here." "Yes." "You fuckin' piece of shit!" "The doors aren't going to hold." "We need to get the fuck out of here!" "This leads to the surface!" "You'll freeze, if those things don't find you first." "It's our only chance!" "No, we stay." "Hold them off here." "Come on." "Let's go!" "We stay!" "Just leave him." "Come on." "Come on." "Let's go." "Let's go." "Come on." "Come on." "Let's go." "Come on." "Let's go." "Nothing personal." "You're going to need every bullet." "Come and get it, motherfucker." "What do you want?" "More." "Kai, look." "Sam." "Sam!" "What do we do now?" "We walk." "With these..." "At least we have a chance." "Now come on." "Come on." "Let's go." "We used to live and die by the rules we made." "But our rules, like everything else we buil, are breaking down." "There's only one rule left now, anyway." "One rule above all." "Survive." "Come on."

"Transcript by testexam" "Resync by Lauta" "you see?" "You see what's going on here?" "See, look at that." "It jumps and then it freezes." " It's frustrating." " It's very frustrating." " I'm missing all my shows... "lost."" " Oh, last week..." "You know that guy they killed off the previous week?" "All right, don't tell me." "I don't wanna know." "He's not dead, he's back." "He came back." " I just told you not to tell me." " Shocking." " Are you nuts?" " One of my top five episodes of all time." "By the way, how come you didn't show up last thursday?" " You didn't even call." " We had a lot of appointments last thursday." " So what about the tv?" " Well, I don't think it's your tivo." "It's probably the satellite," " but I'm gonna take a look." " Satellite?" "Okay." "You know, it just gets a little frustrating." "Every time I sit down and watch it, it's not working." " Hello?" " Larry!" " Oh, hey, honey." " Oh my god." "Honey, you couldn't call at a worse time." " I got the tivo guy here." " Oh my god!" " Hey, you got the warranty on this thing?" " Larry!" " The warranty." " Oh wait, hold on." " We're going through a really big storm right now." " Hold on one second." " I need a warranty card." " Honey, let me ask you a question." "Do you have a..." "Do you know where the warranty card is" " on the tivo?" " No, I-I don't." "In case something happens to me..." " I mean, it's really bad." " Is it in the kitchen drawer by any chance?" " What?" " I'm sorry, I can't hear you." " What is that?" "What did you say?" " Do you know who" " the guy was that came out?" " No, I'm not talking to you." "Larry, I just wanna tell you just in case..." " I can't hear you, honey." "Wait, hold on one second." " ..." "For some reason" " I don't make it home..." " You know who the guy was who came and put this thing in?" " You know who the guy was who installed..." " I don't know." " I don't know his name." " Was it tom or something?" " I just want you to know..." " Or don?" "Something like that?" " Maybe bill or james?" " Oh my god!" "I'll come back later this afternoon," " because it looks like you're really busy." " Oh no, jeez." "Honey, I'm sorry." "You know what?" "Please." "He's gonna go." "I'm never gonna get him again." "It's all right." "I can come back." "No, stay right there." "Call me back in 10 minutes, okay?" " What?" " I'm sorry, sweetheart." "I love you." " Keep talking." "I'll come back." " No no, that's okay." " Stay..." "Stay right here." " Larry!" "Isn't he something, billy?" "Have you ever seen horses like him?" "Not quite." "Hey!" "Turned it off." "Guess what?" "We're having dinner at primo's tonight." "I made a reservation." "That's your husband." "I'm leaving." "I'm leaving, larry." "I can't do this anymore." "You can't do this?" "What?" "What?" "What?" "What are you t..." "Does that really surprise you?" "What do you mean you're leaving?" "What are you doing?" "I just called you from an airplane, telling you I was about to crash." "The tivo guy was here." "I could barely hear what you were saying." "He was about to leave." "I couldn't even get the guy to come to the house." "You know, it's very hard to get those people here." "It was broken." " Oh, really?" " I got it fixed for you." " Well, okay." " I saved all your shows." ""barefoot contessa," "top chef," "project runway."" "I wouldn't let him." "I saved those shows for you." "We've got these shows right here." "It's not just about the tivo." "What?" "What else is it about?" ""what else is it about?"" "it's all of it." "You can't do anything like a normal person." "It's about talking during sex." "So I talk during sex." "So what?" " It's not dirty talk." "You chitchat." " So?" ""who can't tell that real crab isn't fake crab?"" "by the way, people should be able to tell real crab from fake crab." "You've gotta be a moron if you can't tell the difference." " That's what I think." " Well, you know what?" "If I bring that up while we're having sex, that's a fun topic to discuss." "You know what the thing is, larry?" "People ask me all the time, "how do you stay with him?"" "and I always tell them, "there's another side to larry that you don't see."" "And then I just realized today there's no other side." " No, there's another side." " There's no other side!" " This is it!" " There's a lot of sides." "I'm complex!" "After I thought I was gonna die and you hung up on me," "I started talking to the guy next to me and I realized not everybody's like you." "There are normal people out there that have conversations." " Oh, the guy next to you." " Interested in other people." "And we had a very..." "Soulful conversation..." " That's sweet." " ..." "About li..." "Okay, see?" " Yeah." " Yeah." "Okay, this guy." "Does he carry mints and a pen and tissues at all times like I do, huh?" "Does he have mints?" "How is his breath?" " Very pleasant." " Really?" " What does he do?" " He owns an underwear company." " Mm-hmm, yes. - oh, an underwear company." "What kind of underwear?" "He invented..." "It doesn't matter..." "Underwear that doesn't have a fly." "No-fly zone?" "No-fly zone." "That is the dumbest company." "What a stupid..." "I've tried that underwear." "It is so idiotic." "You have to drop the underwear" " to pee, okay?" " I think we just need a little time apart." "I'm gonna be at my sister's." " Don't do this." "This is crazy, honey." " Larry." "What are you doing this for?" "What?" "I love you." "How could you do this?" "What do you mean?" "You weren't there for me when I needed you." " I couldn't hear you." " I'll be at becky's." "You're talking on an airplane phone." "Yeah, I didn't think I was gonna like this." "Usually I don't like the skin." "It's delicious." "I marinate it after I roast it." "Cheryl left me." " What?" " What?" "What do you mean she left you?" " She's gone." "She left." " Really?" "She's gone, she's out of the house." " Suitcase..." "Clothes." " Oh, she'll come back." "She's with her sister." "She's not coming back." "Do you want something to eat, sweetie?" "Let me get you something." " Jodi, get him a chair, please." " Oh, sure." " What happened?" " Let me get you a plate." "You know, she was coming back on a plane, and there was a storm, and she called me from the plane." "And you know, I had the tivo guy in the house." "so?" "Well, you know, it's so hard to get the tivo guy, man." "This guy would keep exchanging calls." "I can't get him there." "So he's finally there, and the whole call he's kind of talking to me, going..." "What's with the small plate?" " That's the only one I had clean." " What?" " Such a tiny plate?" " It's the same exact portion." "It's just as..." " What's the difference?" " It's what my grandmother used to eat from." "What happened with cheryl on the plane?" "There was a lot of turbulence." "She was really frightened." "The tivo guy was there." "I couldn't really talk, and..." "I told her to call me back in 10 minutes." " What?" " Oh, larry." "The plane's going down," " and you said, "call me back"?" " You can't do that." " You didn't say that." " I didn't know it was going down!" " Okay okay." "All right, you know what?" " I didn't know." "She's gonna get over it, and it's all gonna be okay." "No, she's not gonna get over it, because she met a guy on the plane." " What?" "Where did she meet another guy?" " Really?" " On the plane." " While the plane was going down?" " Guy sitting next to her." " Oh, no." "Guy sitting next to her." "What a scumbag." "Takes advantage of a married woman who's scared." "I feel terrible." "I'm emotionally distraught over this." "I mean, I know this would never happen to nan and myself." " Of course not." " But I wanna say one thing." "Okay, cheryl's a great girl." "She's adorable, good cook, fun to be with." "She has a terrific body." " Used to be amazing." " I remember." " It's true." " But let me make my point." "None of us at this table ever would have met cheryl" " if not for larry david." " That's true." " Very true." " I brought her into your lives." "Cheryl's a great girl, but we have to stick with larry." "People are gonna take sides now." "Listen, this is a time that we have to stand behind larry." "Hey, that could be cheryl." "You'll get it later." "We don't answer the phone at dinner." " What?" "I'll answer it." " No no no." "No, the phone is not..." "What kind of fucked up rule is that?" " No, we don't answer the phone." " Get the hell..." " What, are you crazy?" " You don't answer the phone." "Give me that!" "Give it to me!" "We don't answer the phone during dinner!" "It's a rule!" " You jammed my thumb." " You weren't invited." "Go eat somewhere else!" "Oh, jesus." "I forgot to cancel my reservations at primo's." " I'll use my cell phone." " Out in the hall," " not in the kitchen." " All right, pipe down." "Thank you for calling primo's." "This is iris." "Oh, hi, this is larry david calling." "Oh, hi, Mr. David." "We have you down for 7:30 tonight." "Oh, you know what?" "I'm..." "I'm gonna have to cancel." "Oh, I'm so sorry." "May I ask why?" "Well, if you must know, my wife left me." " Your wife left you." " Yeah, my wife left me." "Okay, Mr. David, in the future, it would be nice just to get a little more notice" " when you wanna cancel a reservation." " You don't believe me?" "Sure I believe you." "Your wife left you." "Okay." "You know, I'm getting from your tone that you don't believe me." "You have to cancel." "I understand." "I'm just saying that it's our policy to get a little more notice." "Okay, in the future, if my wife leaves me, i'll make sure she does it in the morning." "Have a great night." "Maxwells?" " You okay?" " What the hell is this?" "That's simon's birthday party." "He's having it at maxwells?" "Big band, special guest." " He's going all out." " Special guest?" "Who goes all out for a birthday party?" "Like, that's crazy." "I thought he was having this in his house." "You know how expensive that is?" "I loaned him $10,000 last month." " Last month?" " Yeah, he said he needed the money." "He needed it to give himself a birthday party at maxwells!" "I'm paying for this thing." " Hey." " Hi." "I'm sorry." "I just came by to pick up a few more things." "Oh." "Oh." "I'm so glad you're here, because I..." "I need to talk to you." " Can I talk to you for a second?" " Yeah." "I need you to do something for me" " if iwould be okay." " Okay." "I had to call primo's" " to cancel our reservation." " Yeah." "And the hostess asked me why I was canceling, and I told her it was because you left me." "Mm-hmm." "But I don't think she believed me." "So what I'd like you to do is to call the restaurant and just sort of, you know, confirm my story." "You want me to call a stranger at a restaurant and talk to them about our marriage well, she's not really a stranger." "Iris, you know iris." " The hostess." "She works there." " I don't really know iris." "You know the one." "She's got the long hair." "I know who you're talking about, but I really don't think I want to call her and tell her that we're breaking up." "You know, she said she believed me, but there was something in her tone that told me that maybe she thought I was making this up or something." "I mean, who would go to the lengths of saying that their wife split up with them" " and that's why they had to cancel?" " You would." "Not so sure about that." "I don't think I would." "Yeah well, excuse me." "I gotta actually get this stuff." "Cheryl, don't go." "Come on." "Come on, just stay." "Don't, don't." "I need to go, larry." "Will youall the restaurant?" " Hey, larry." " Hey, simon." " How are you?" " I'm okay." " Good good, good good." " You know," "I was over at jeff's, and I noticed the invitation to your party." "Aren't the invitations great?" "I took a lot of time on that." "I had no idea the party was gonna be at maxwell's" " with the open bar..." " Open bar." "...and the band, and the special guests." "Wait till you hear about the special guest." "Yeah." "I loaned you $10,000 a month ago." "You didn't tell me you were having this big party for yourself." "$10,000 has nothing to do with the party." " Well, what are you talking about?" " No no no no." "I'm not using that money for that." "I'm using the money" " for something else." "And I appreciate it." " I know, but you would have to use the money for something else if you didn't have this party." " You could have used the money for that." " Don't connect the two," " because they..." "Don't think of them as..." " Well, I see them" " as being totally connected." " No, they're not connected at all." "No, have nothing to do with each other." "Simon, you're crazy, you know?" "Anyway, all right, so fine." " Yeah." " I'll see you at maxwells." "This is probably gonna be some party." "Umm, okay, here's the thing:" "cheryl is gonna be there." "Are you comfortable with that?" "I'm comfortable." "I don't think anybody else will be..." "Comfortable." "Well, they're gonna have to..." "It's their problem, isn't it, you know?" "Here's the thing..." "My wife and I talked about it, and..." "We chose cheryl." "Believe this guy?" "$10,000 I loan him." "Disinvites me from the party, choosing cheryl." "I'm paying for that party." "You know that?" "Hey, zev." " Hello, larry david." " You're cleaning your underwear and socks?" "That's another thing..." "I gotta go back to fluff and fold now." "Alana didn't show up." "You know, I don't have her phone number." "Cheryl took care of all that stuff." "You're just lost, aren't you?" " I'm completely lost." " Oh my god." "You know what I got in my foyer at home?" "Pictures of all my dry cleaners." "Hey, xena the warrior princess." "Yeah." " Did you use to watch that show?" " Of course." " Yeah, she's pretty sexy." " Oh, my..." "What the hell, larry?" "Oh my god." "I'm so sorry." " Why did you do that?" " Oh, shit." " It's ripped." " She doesn't come in anymore." "How am I gonna get another picture?" "Man." "You can get lucy lawless's picture, can't you?" "You know what?" "I'll get ahold of her agent and we'll find it." "I'll get it." "Okay, I'll get you another picture." "Could you have her make it out to "zev" this time?" " Yes." "Okay." " Thank you." "All right." " I'm sorry." " That's all right." "Just give me the picture." " I'll get the picture." " Thank you so much." "Please take this couple over to table #24." "Thanks, have a nice dinner." "What's taking so long, may I ask?" "Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. David." "We're just really full tonight." "It should just be a couple more minutes." "Let me ask you a question." " Did my wife call the restaurant?" " No." "Is that why I'm not getting a table?" "Because you didn't believe my breakup story" " last night?" " I don't know what you're talking about." " I think you do know what I'm talking about." " No, we're just full tonight." " Why would I make that up?" "That's insane." " Mr. David," " we'll be right with you." " You have to be insane to make up a story like that." " Okay." " If I wanted to cancel a reservation, and needed an excuse, I would just say I'm sick or something." "Primo's, this is iris." "Sure, come right in." "You know, we did break up." "That's why I had to cancel the reservation." "Okay, we'll see you soon." "You totally deserve that." "You totally deserve it." "Yes, you do." "On no planet is a shoe caddy a good gift." "That's just a..." "What?" "All right, yeah, no no no," "I get that it was payback, but..." "It's not long distance even if it's in india." "So I'm on the 14th hole, okay?" "Lloyd, he's got these great cuban cigars." " What?" "I can't talk to you, mom." " So we're smoking these cigars." " I've got someone on the other line." " So I reach down" " to take a puff..." " I can't hear you." "It's loud in here." " No no, just call them." " ..." "And all of a sudden, lloyd goes," " "what the fuck are you doing?" "That's my cigar!"" " I'll call you back." " Call them." " So I was trying to brush my teeth with an apple." " It was horrible, horrible." " Excuse me." "Who are you talking to?" " I'm talking to myself." " Well, you're doing it really loud." " Oh, really?" " Yeah yeah." " You're kind of talking loud yourself." " To a person." " What's the difference?" " I'm actually conversing with another human being." " Oh, really?" " Very different than just..." "To the outside observer, it's the same level of annoyance." "Well, I need to talk to my friend." "I can barely hear here." "Okay, well, maybe if you talk lower to your friend," " I'll talk lower to my other self." " Great great." " Yeah, good plan." " Okay, all right." "Jesus christ." "I'm literally sitting minding my own business..." "What a schmuck." "He's been talking on his phone the whole dinner." "...and this guy is talking to himself." "He's still doing it." "Do you hear that?" "Listen, you hear this?" "He doesn't even think he's being annoying." "He thinks he can just sit there and tk out loud not be annoying." "Do you hear that?" "He's literally just doing it" " just to be annoying." " He's been driving me nuts the last 10 minutes." "Honestly, I'm done anyway." "This is bullshit." " I'm paying." "I don't care." " No, can you hear him?" "No, he's still talking." "Wait, I got steve on the other line." " He wins, he wins." "Yeah, you win." " Hey, steve..." " Good for you, being annoying." " ..." "Do me a favor." "Remind me..." "These people, they're just..." " Who are you talking to?" " Oh, hey." " Hi, jodi." " Hey." "What are you doing tomorrow?" "Let's play golf." "I can't." "Larry, the funkhousers have made a decision." "We're going with cheryl." "Yeah." " Oh." "Hi, becky." " Oh." "Hi." "Is cheryl here?" "No, she's not here right now, so..." " You know when she'll be back?" " nuh-uh, I don't," " but it was good to see you." " Alana?" " Is that alana?" " Mr. Larry." "What are you doing here?" "I work for Mrs. Cheryl." " You chose cheryl?" " Yes." "Hey, becky?" "Oh, I wasn't sure if you'd still be here." "I thought you were gonna..." "I am, and..." " Hi." " Hi." "This is glenn." "This is larry." " Hey." " Nice to meet you." "Nice head of hair." "Okay." "What are you doing here?" "You need to call ted danson back." "He wanted to invite you to an oceans fundraiser." "Oh, yeah." "Okay, thanks." " You'll like ted." " I like the ocean." "Then it's perfect." " I'm very pro-ocean." " So glenn, how's the no-fly underwear business doing?" " great." " I told him about your business." " Yeah." " It's going great." " Is it?" " Yeah." " You think men want an underwear" " that has no fly?" " I know they do." "74% of the men we tested go over the fence." " Oh, they do?" " Yeah, the rest go through the gate." " Well..." " You're not giving people an option." "The penis needs an option, just like everybody else." "The penis is human." "It needs an option." "All right, well you should probably get going." " Okay." " Okay." " Mint?" " No." " Tissue?" " No, I..." "Pen?" " Is that glenn with two "n"s?" " It is, in fact." "You know what?" "I wouldn't care..." "I wouldn't care if she left me for a bald guy." "Right." " But this is, like, the worst betrayal." " What does he look like?" " Thick, like presidential kennedy hair." " Oh." " And he makes underwear?" " Yeah, no-fly underwear, like there's some great clamoring for no-fly underwear." " Who needs no-fly underwear?" " I know." "A guy who goes into a store and goes, "i need a pair of underwear." " I got a vagina."" " I know." "No-fly underwear." "Hello?" "Hold on one second." "Great, thank you so very much." "Really, thank him." "Thanks, bye." "Here you go." "Lucy lawless." "oh." "Oh, yeah." "Oh, thanks." " Let me call her." " Which water is mine?" "I don't know." "I took one sip." "I have no..." " We'll have to get more." " We'll get more water." " "To zev... " - zev, yes." " "..." "Lucy lawless."" " Thank you so much." "I not only get you the picture," "I get you lucy lawless." " Thank you so much." " My pleasure." " Wow, you make lovely "l"s." " You got my dry cleaning?" "Tomorrow after 5:00." " Hey, that was so nice of you to do that." " Oh, you're welcome." "To tell you the truth, I thought he was gonna be more bowled over by your presence." "He took it pretty calmly." " People are always expecting someone bigger." " I used to be very intimidated" " by that warrior princess, I gotta tell you." " Did you really?" " Yes." " And now?" "Now that I see you in person," " I actually think I can take you." "Look, I'm not a cool guy or anything, okay?" "I haven't been on a date in 12 years, but I would love to waste your time for couple of hours." " What do you think about that?" "Can I do that?" "Is that possible?" " How about that?" " Okay, yeah." " Have you been to primo's?" " I have never been to primo's." " I hear that it's great though." " It's really good." "All right, yeah." "Well, you've got my number." "I do." " Well..." " Oh, jeez." " Wh?" " Ted danson." "He is an asshole." "Really?" "You don't like him?" " I despise him." "He's just terrible." " Hey, how are you?" " Hi." " How are you doing, man?" " You know lucy lawless?" " I do." " Yeah, we met." " Ted danson." " Yeah, nice to see you." " You too." " Well, okay." " All right." "Bye." "What is that?" ""call me"?" " Did she just do a "call me"?" " Yeah, she did." " We're going out to dinner." " Really?" " Yes, yeah." " Well, good for you." "I asked her for a date." "Here's what I said." ""i'm not really a cool guy or anything,"" "which is a pretty good line I thought." "I never did that when I was dating, admit that I wasn't a cool guy." "Now I didn't give a shit." "I just said, "i'm not a cool guy."" "It fucking worked! "i'm not a cool guy"!" "I'm gonna use it all the time." " Good for you, man, really." " Thank you." " Thank you." " Yeah, you deserve that." " I gotta scoot." " Wait, let me ask you something." "How come I wasn't invited to your fundraiser?" " Wha-what fundraiser?" " The oceans fundraiser." "Oh!" "I thought you were a global-warming guy." " Really?" " Yeah." "You're going with cheryl, aren't you?" "Yeah." "Yeah." ""okay, what is jim jones's most famous song?"" " "ballin"!" " And there he is, y'all!" " Uh-oh, uh-oh." " And a la-di-da." " Not too much?" "Not too dressy?" " No." " No, you look good." " You're cool, man." "You're cool." "You're bringing it tonight, man." "Let me tell you something." "What, am I gonna sit home?" "She's going out." " That's right." " She's got a new boyfriend already!" " Your turn." " By the way, guess who I'm going out with?" " Who?" " Who are you going out with?" "Xena the warrior princess." " Ooh!" " Wait a second now." " What?" " Uh-huh." " Do you love that?" " I love it!" " Don't wait up." " Don't worry, we won't." " My man l.d." " Yeah." "Sorry you gotta miss that lakers game." " Forget about it." " Oh, I got to tivo it." "What?" " What the hell?" " Larry, you all right?" " You all right?" " Leon, go help him." " What happened?" " What happened, man?" " You all right?" " What's the matter?" "So what's the deal?" " Yeah, what's the deal?" " I was just about to explain." "Based on your signs and symptoms, when you twisted your body, your testicles got ensnared in the fly of your underwear, which acted like a noose." "And it caused scrotal hematoma and contusion." " Twisted balls." " In layman's terms, yes, but it's not as bad as it sounds." "It's a bruising, which will probably last about a week or so." "Oh, okay." " But I would definitely recommend switching to a style of underwear with no fly." " No-fly zone?" "Is that what you're telling me?" " that's exactly it." "No-fly zone." "That's a popular brand." " I'm not wearing that underwear, okay?" " You gotta do it, man." "You got long balls, larry." "Long balls." " You got long-ass balls." " I've got long balls?" "Doctor, you've seen his balls, right?" "Would you say my balls were unusually long?" "They're a bit more distended than the average testicles." "You got long-ass balls, larry." "Long-ball larry." "That's your new name." "Long balls." "Who the hell knew?" "Long balls." "Change the draws." "Okay, fine." "I'll wear the no-fly zone." " Hey, thanks for getting me through this so fast." " Yeah, my pleasure." "You know what, I got a date." "I gotta get out of here." "Oh yeah, speaking of that, you're gonna wanna ice your testicles, and no sex for at least a week." "I don't think that's gonna be a problem for me, but thanks." "Thanks for the info." "All right." " Good luck." " Thanks." "My man." " I got long balls." " Long-ass balls." "I've actually trained my body not to use public toilets." "Trained it." "So I never ever have to go when I'm out of my house." "Yeah, I'm getting a red flag here, larry." "You know what?" "We should switch sides." "Because the game's on." " I don't wanna look at it." " Why not?" "Because I'm tivoing it." " Oh, hate spoilers, right?" " I can't watch it if I know what happens." " So what else about you?" " I'm a man of mystery." " And you're a jew, right?" " Yeah." " 'Cause we don't have those where I come from." " Really?" " Nope." " So I must be quite fascinating to you." "You are so exotic you have no idea." " Really?" " Yeah." "It's like a black man in sweden." " It's exactly like that." " Right?" "Mr. Akivo, your table's ready." "Right this way please." "Sorry for the wait." "Okay, we were definitely here ahead of them." " Absolutely." " Huh, were we not?" " Uh-huh." " I'm gonna talk to the owner." "Hey, primo." "Mr. David, good evening." "What's going on?" "All these people I came in ahead of are getting seated." "How come I'm not getting a table?" "Mr. David, there is no table." "No table?" "How come?" "What do you mean "no table"?" "We chose cheryl." "Oh my god." "I'm so sorry." "Can you believe that?" "It's okay." "It's not your fault." " Mint?" " Yeah." " Tissue?" " No." "So what do you wanna do now?" "We could go to my house." "Your house?" "Sure." "It's just up the road." "Oh, right." "What?" "My testicles got ensnared in the fly of my underwear, and the doctor said I can't have sex for a week." "But we can go there for dinner." "I was only talking about dinner, you big asshole." "No!" "No!" " Hey, how are you doing?" " Hey, name please." " Larry david." "Simon's party, right?" " Yes." " Cool." " Sorry, you're not on the list." "That's gotta be a mistake." "I gotta be on this list." "I'm a close friend." " My wife is in there." " You're not on the list." "I can't let you in." " Come on, man." "I'll give you $20." " $20?" "If you're not on the list, I can't let you in." "Sorry." " $40." " That's insulting." "Hey." "What the heck are you doing here?" "You're invited?" "No, he didn't invite me." "I have a gig." "He's paying me $10,000 to do a set." "It's a piece of cake." " Are you the special guest?" " Yeah, so what?" " What's the big deal?" " Are you kidding?" " It's $10,000." " He's giving you $10,000?" " Yeah, so what?" " So what?" "!" "That's my money." "I'm paying for you." "You're my money." " What do you mean I'm your money?" " Don't you understand?" "I gave him $10,000." "He's giving it to you, so I own you!" "This is not san quentin." "I have a gig for christ..." "I don't care." "You're not going in!" "Why are you taking this so personally?" "!" "This is just business!" "No, it's not business." "What are you doing?" " You're not going in there." " I am going in there." " Don't tell me what to do." " You're not going in." " Hey, what's your..." "Oh, come on." "I hit you in the thigh, you big baby." "Long balls." " Long balls." " Long balls."

"I remember when it began, and where:" "Sydney, Australia the day Hitler rejected our ultimatum to stay out of Poland." "I remember the ancient German freighter, brooding at her moorings coal bunkers and provision rooms more than half empty with the unsafe waters of two oceans between her and home." "It wasn 't as though her rusty carcass was worth much or her men unexpendable." "She was an old lady of the ocean backstreets who should have drowned herself gracefully long before." "So this is the story of a German tramp steamer and a salute to a man for whom the sea was a changeless way of life." "The story of a ship and a man who became so much a part of one another that his heart was her power his breath, her life his stubbornness, the steel of her sides." "I am Jeff Napier, and I knew them both back in the days before the world took notice of them." "Before there was a story." "Her crew was of no credit to any sea or land." "Their captain realized that, of course." "In later years, I sometimes blamed myself for making a challenge of his problems." "But then, I knew that wasn 't the force that drove him." "I knew it was something much deeper." "Not loyalty, which is what one may owe to others, but integrity." "A man 's supreme obligation to himself." "That was a recording of Berlin 's reaction to Herr Hitler's defiant rejection of..." "Turn off that wireless!" "On the well deck!" "Get back to work!" " Jeff." " Karl." " Good to see you again." " Good to see you too." "Let's go up to my quarters." " Make yourself at home, Jeff." " Thanks." "From the heavy cruiser von Moltke to the tramp steamer Ergenstrasse." "How's your father?" "I heard he was made vice admiral." "Oh, he's as fit as a youngster." "Bellowing for a sea command." "I'm afraid he's slated for a desk at the admiralty this war." " And there's going to be war, Karl." " There is." "And I'm slated for internment, is that what you're trying to say?" "Well, that's one thing." "I see you still carry the old imperial flag." "I do." "Quite different from the one astern." "You won't get an argument out of me on that." "Look, I'm Number One of the Rockhampton." "We received orders this morning to make ready to sail." " On a war footing?" " Yes." "Within the week, we'll be fighting Nazism." "Now, you've been fighting it since its inception, and there are plenty like you." "Karl, before this thing breaks, why don't you establish yourself as..." "A traitor?" "They took away my command." "Would you take away my homeland?" "Sorry." "Well, don't think I haven't considered it." "But the Rockhampton, a crack vessel of the Royal Navy certainly isn't wasting its executive officer to make a survey of the harmless old Ergenstrasse, without cargo or coal unable to sail." "No." "It's Elsa." " Elsa who?" " Elsa Keller." "I met her in Hamburg." "She's waiting in the car." " I'd like you to meet her, Karl." " Gladly." "Didn't I read sometime back you were engaged to a girl in England?" "And I suppose there will be the deuce to pay when I get back but it'll have to be." "And this isn't just another girl in Australia?" "I'm gonna marry her." "Let's don't keep her waiting." "I still keep something for special occasions." "Good." "Don't bother to come any further." "Thank you." "You sent for me, sir?" "Go over to our consulate fast." "Clear us for Yokohama just as we are." "Yokohama?" "We can't make Yokohama, sir." "Go to our consulate." "Get into plain clothes." "With news the way it is, I want no brawls." "Aye, aye, sir." "That's all right, Brounck." "That's fine." " Karl." " Come in, come in." "Putting a chill on this." "Elsa, this is Captain Karl Ehrlich." "Karl, Miss Keller." "Miss Keller." "Haven't we met before?" "I can't quite recall, but the navy seems to be mixed up in it somehow." "No." " He wouldn't have forgotten you." " But I was in the navy." " Won't you sit down." " Thank you." "I recall now." "I was on the Riviera when I heard the captain was..." "Relieved of his command." "Yes." "He spoke out quite boldly against the new regime." "Until now, I didn't know what happened to you, captain." "They didn't shoot me." "You know, my friendship with Karl is a family matter dating back a generation." " Champagne, or should I freshen this?" " No, that'll do fine, thanks." "I have to report every four hours to headquarters." " Is there a phone aboard?" " Not aboard the ship." " There's one on the next wharf." " That'll do fine." "Do you mind if Elsa waits here till I get back?" " Delighted." " Well, don't be too delighted." " I'll show you to the gangway." " That's all right, I know the way." "It's as Jeff said." "I've known him since he was a boy, which he still is, in some ways." "I don't know your entire history, but I know enough." "So one of two things:" "When he returns, either you tell him in front of me or I tell him in front of you." " Tell him what?" " About the Monte Carlo affair." "Jack Cavanaugh never knew any attractive woman slightly." "There was the famous, or infamous, cruise with Billy Norton." "Or the fact that Eric Carson shot himself 20 minutes before he was to marry you." "Merely gossip, captain." "Did you ever see a man with his brains blown out?" "You don't come into this one way or the other, except for plain meddling." "Keep out of it." "There's a third alternate." "You can leave, never see Jeff again." "Just fade out with no explanation." "I'm not going to forget this." "No matter how long it takes, I shall pay you back." "You have nothing now but when I'm finished, you won't even have this!" "To what I promise you!" " Mr. Bachman." " Yes, sir?" " What have you there?" " Explosives, sir." " Explosives?" " Yes, sir." "Mr. Kirchner told me to plant them." "I was just coming to report." "They thought up a new one." "Crews of foreign ships are to be medically examined before a clearance." "Our consul passed orders for us to scuttle the minute we get news of war." "Take that stuff back to the chief engineer." " And don't go by the gangway." " Yes, sir." "Get out of that shore gear, get ready for sea." "I believe you're aware of my status in Naval Intelligence." "I took the opportunity to ask the consul to wireless home for further orders." "Possibly to fly me home." "Mr. Kirchner, we have not abandoned this ship yet." " Stemme." " Sir." "You will go to the consul at once." "Pay him my respects and inform him personally that the weather forecast for tonight is heavy fog." "Tell him I'll attempt to get out of Sydney harbor tonight on my own responsibility and shall so log it for his protection." " Aye, aye, sir." " Hurry it up." " Yes, sir." "Your orders come through, you'll be relieved of duty." " Otherwise, you sail." " We haven't a chance of getting out." " You'll have to scuttle." " You're mistaken, Mr. Kirchner." "That British officer is in your quarters, sir." "Well." "What happened?" " A little accident." " What sort of an accident?" " Where's Elsa?" " She isn't here." " What do you mean, she isn't here?" " I'm sorry, Jeff, but I can't help you out." "She just left and didn't say where she was going." " You mean to say she just walked off?" " You know women." "What are you trying to tell me?" "I don't think she's gonna marry you." "You didn't tell her anything to make her change her mind, I suppose?" "All right, I'll find out for myself." "But if she's not at the hotel, I'll be right back because you'll be here for the duration." "Are you sure?" "Yes, I'm sure." "Fog won't get much heavier now." "Where do you propose to take your first bearing?" " Here, sir." " We won't be able to see it." "Perhaps we can hear it." "Five minutes to slack tide." "The men at their stations?" "Yes, sir." "Standing by fore and aft." "Also in the waist." " Well?" " Charge has been set." " Where do you want the detonator?" " Put it near the telegraph." "Cadet Stemme, are you still curious about what happens to us in case we're caught?" " You make it clear." " Go to your station." "Yes, sir." " Bridge." " Bridge." "All ready below." "Engine room reports all ready below, sir." "Wesser." " It's a car, sir." " Police?" "Whoever it is, they're coming aboard." "Get back out of sight." "I must see the captain at once." " Urgent." " All right, sir." "Follow me." "We'd better go up on the other side." "It's the consul general, sir." "Our brilliant consulate service." "What does he...?" "Get back to your station." "Captain Ehrlich, sir." "Gentlemen." "As you know, I cannot condone this mad venture, but if..." " What do you want, Mr. Consul?" " Consul general." "Mr. Consul General." "I have someone here you must take with you." "I ask for coal and provisions and get a passenger?" "Sir, this is official." "Intelligence agent." "Must be out of the country before the authorities make an arrest." "Cadet Wesser, bring the consul's..." "The consul general's passenger aboard." "Yes, sir." "And you, sir, unless you wish to sail with us get yourself off this ship." "With pleasure." "Heil Hitler." "The gangway's aboard and the springs are in." "Make the signal to let go the bowline." "Let go aft." " Slow ahead." " Slow ahead." "Slow ahead." "Slow ahead." " Engine room." " Schmitt if we run aground or ram anything, as is likely, let go with that charge." " Ten degrees left." " Ten degrees left, sir." "And hold her there." "Auf Wiedersehen, Sydney." " Wesser, more coffee." " Yes, sir." "If you don't mind my saying so, sir well, you've been on your feet over 11 hours now..." "Are you suggesting that I go to my quarters, Mr. Wesser?" "Well, yes, sir." "Maybe you're right." " Stemme." " Sir?" "That passenger, I'll see him now." "Show him to my quarters." "She's in your quarters, sir." "She?" "I had a premonition." "Believe me, I don't want this any more than you do." "You certainly haven't lessened my problems any." "I don't know, you might find me very useful." "The destroyer Cressy is north of you." "She left Brisbane late yesterday." "And two days ago..." "Do you mind giving me a light?" " The destroyer Eden left Melbourne on patrol." "The Rockhampton has been on maneuvers with the Australian squadron." "Our friend Napier's doubtless at sea again by this time." "Our friend Napier has doubtlessly been at sea for the last six months or you wouldn't have this information." " Are you sure?" " Quite." "I have to be, in my work." "The Eden and Cressy are old ships." "I wonder when they were last overhauled." "That I don't know." "You see, I didn't go in for details." "No, I suppose not." "You were just in the business of making men talk." "And they usually did." "But why marriage?" "Wouldn't Jeff talk without it?" "Or at this stage, did you want to add a wedding ring to your trophies?" "I had orders to acquire British nationality by marriage preferably into a naval family." "But I shall see that my failure to comply is reported..." "So long as you had to hurt Jeff so badly I'm sorry it was cold-blooded duty with you." " Did you bring any baggage aboard?" " Only one case." "If you need any extra clothing, we can outfit you from the slop chest." "Where do I sleep?" "Right in here." "You'll find fresh bed linen in that closet." " Here's the bath..." " I found it." "...which connects with my sleeping quarters." " There's a lock on both sides of the door." " I found that too." "So we now share a wonderful bond:" "Mutual self-preservation." "I don't want prison, and you don't want internment." "You'd have been lucky to get away with a prison sentence so I don't think you'll complain if you find this ship slightly similar to a prison." "Prison is only a state of mind." "Well, I'm in a tired state of mind right now." "Bridge." "Have all officers report to the bridge at the change of watch, and call me." "Aye, aye, sir." "And now, if you don't mind..." "Your invitation to the wardroom is accepted, gentlemen." "And I have not come empty-handed." "I have two signals here." "Number one, we have declared war on Germany." "Finally." "Number two, a German freighter, the Ergenstrasse slipped out of Sydney last night." "Ours is the not-too-glorious task of making a sweep and intercepting her." "Sit down, gentlemen." "There goes your leave, Napier." " What will you have to drink?" " Beer, thank you." "It'd seem they'd find us something more important to do." "This is our position." "One of the destroyers is somewhere along this arc, about here." "I expect it to pass inshore of us." "The other one is about here." "I'm reducing speed shortly so it'll pass offshore." "I hope." "The Rockhampton, I think we can discount at present." " It'll be a tight squeeze, sir." " And a chance." "Double the lookouts and turn tail at every shadow of smoke." " Keep ours at a minimum." " But that destroyer she can cut us off, sir." "That is no longer our course, Mr. Bachman." "We're not attempting to make Yokohama." "That is all." "Sir, if we're turning south, what will we burn for coal?" "What will we eat?" "There are no ports." "I'll appropriate food at the shipwreck relief station on Auckland Island." " But fuel..." " One thing at a time, Mr. Kirchner." "I think you're well indoctrinated in the game of follow-the-leader." " Yes, but I was under the impression..." " Muster all hands." "You're to keep all ports covered." "Smoking lamp is out except on specific order." "And nothing to be thrown overboard." " Nothing, from now on." " I believe I have made it quite obvious to everyone onboard this ship what my political views are." "But now, for better or for worse, we are at war." "This ship is halfway around the world from its home." "I intend to bring it under the safety of the flag stead light." "That is all." "What about pay?" "He's gonna work us navy-fashion." "What's wrong with that?" "I was in the old war." " He talks well." " Dishwasher third class?" "Sergeant." "I'll show you my medals." "Hey..." "All right, down there." "Get on with the work." "Down there." "Come on, break it up." "You might have asked me to the muster." "Is there a reason I should be in the dark?" " There is." " What?" "I'll tell you forward." "Find something to keep you busy on the well deck." "You will keep off the main decks, night and day and off the bridge unless specifically ordered there." "You can take your exercise on the after part of the boat deck and keep out of the inboard passage to the officers' quarters." "Just where are we going?" "I would also suggest you wear something a little more suitable for the ship." "Why?" "The officers and men aboard this ship haven't had shore leave since Singapore." "Are you speaking entirely for the officers and men, captain?" "Not entirely." "We're all human." "But, unfortunately, at sea there's no chance to enjoy our humanity." "Your meals will be served in your cabin." "I think that does it." "If there's anything else you need, let me know." "Thanks." "By estimate, the Ergenstrasse was carrying less than 600 tons of coal." "He has to go north, reaching for Truk or other of the Japanese mandates." "With the Cressy in his path and ourselves and Eden closing in, that's it." "Yes, that should be it." "Let's not be so pessimistic, Napier." " Bosun." " Yes, sir?" " Make sure the deadlights are closed." " Right, sir." "So we play fox and hounds, captain?" "Successfully so far, chief." "But from now on it's an engineer's operation." "Let's take a look at the books." "See how much coal we have, how much we're gonna need." "It's bad." " You can burn wood, can't you?" " Sure, but..." "Well, I'm getting you wood." "Figure out how many cords you'll need for the 2600 miles between Pom Pom Galli and Valparaiso." "Pom Pom Galli?" "Now to Auckland, then to Pom Pom Galli?" "On what coal we have and a prayer." " Mr. Kruger." " Yes, sir." " Keep that headset glued to your ears." " Aye." "To Valparaiso, one-third the way around the world." " That's right." " You need saws and axes to cut your wood." " I'll make them for you." " Good man." "We'll need double-bitted axes and two-man saws." "But the next time home, I retire." "No more." "The years have run their journey over me." "From now on, it's my little farm and my grandchildren." "You know, it's funny about grandchildren:" "They seem closer to you..." "You don't have any children." "No, I have no family." "But you get me to Valparaiso, and I'll promise you yours." "The dreams, eh, captain?" "The old days?" "A man has weakness or strength, Schmitt." "Weakness, you can hide, like red lead over a sprung rivet but it'll give under strain." "Strength, you cannot defeat." "Ever." "Don't worry about me, captain." "I'll shovel you to Valparaiso." "I'll shovel you all the way home." "Tomorrow came, and the next day, and the next the Ergenstrasse still unreported." "We'd been hoping she'd break wireless silence, but she never did." "Ehrlich was like a fox, choosing his secret places and listening to us." "All we needed was one clue." "Then, with our speed the search would end with a flash of pursuit and a burst of guns." "With Ehrlich 's fuel range, we could rule out the vast Pacific toward the west." "Eastward, he could reach the Indian Ocean, but he'd be even worse off there." "And south?" "That didn 't seem probable because nothing was there except the Antarctic." "Careful, I'm afraid you're showing a light here." "It seems to be stuck." "You'll have to keep it closed." "You know our captain's orders." "I think I'm going slightly mad, day in and day out." "I've read until I'm blind." "I've walked my 10 feet of private deck until I'm numb." "This is going to be an unpleasant trip for a woman." "For anyone with no work to do." "Think the captain has a chance of getting anywhere?" "I don't know." "He has irritatingly good judgment." "At sea, he knows all the answers." "But if and when we ever get home..." "What?" "My uncle is very high in the party, you know." "Then why are you on this ship?" "Why not a more important job?" "Don't judge by appearances." "As an agent, you should know better." "I'm Intelligence." "Navy reserve." "Harbor survey." "And it seems that I stayed at it too long." "I stayed in Australia too long." "What about my gramophone?" "Would that help the mood?" "I've got some wonderful recordings of Wagner." "How cheerful." "Well, I..." "I've got some popular things too." "Quite an excellent collection." " Will you wait?" " Oh, I'll be at home all evening." "Memories..." "Pleasant memories?" "Exciting ones." "How long ago?" "A thousand years." "Let's you and I go into partnership." "What kind of partnership?" "We're in the same game, let's play together." "You tell me your troubles, I'll tell you mine." "And if we get a chance, we'll haul out together." "That's fair enough." "What are your troubles?" "Mr. Kirchner." "May I remind you that you're not on a cruise ship and this is technically still my cabin." "Yes, sir." " I asked him to come in." " I daresay you did." "I asked him to leave." "My officers' quarters are off-limits to you and this cabin is off-limits to my officers." "Do I make myself clear?" "Quite." "They're short of ships in the North Atlantic." "That's probably where we'll be sent." "I wish they'd get on with it." "This fellow's short of stores and fuel." "He can't cause much trouble." "He has a genius for it." "Land ho!" "Land ho!" " Where away?" " A point off the starboard bow." " That'll be Auckland Island." " I think it will be, Mr. Stemme." " Log it." " Yes, sir." " Mr. Kirchner." " Sir?" " Prepare to launch your boat." " Aye, aye, sir." " Mr. Kirchner." " Sir?" "I am forced to commandeer food from the shipwreck station but make sure that you leave enough rations for any emergency until the next relief ship arrives." "Aye, aye, sir." "Looks like we have company." " Are there any more of you?" " No." "We're the only survivors of the trawler Bermagui." "You can put that gun down, whoever ye are." "We are fishermen." "What ship are you?" "The freighter Joanna, Dutch East India line." "But we can't take you aboard." "Smallpox." "We can't touch any ports." "We have to tap your provisions." "Bosun, start loading those provisions into the boat." "Do you think you're doing right?" "Robbing a shipwreck station?" "I'll leave enough till another ship calls for you." "That's all well and good, if we get the wireless working." "Don't worry." "We'll send out your SOS." "Mr. Kirchner, have you seen the charts on the Chatham Islands?" "Second officer corrected them, sir." "Took them to your day cabin." "Thank you." " Yes?" " I have to look at a couple of charts." "Sorry to have bothered you." "I hope I haven't bothered you too much." "You've got enough of that stuff to keep you busy the whole trip." "Fortunately." "What else is there to do?" " Have a drink, perhaps." "Would that help?" " It never hurts." "Suppose you do get all the way home." "There's no place there for you, under the present government." "What else could I do?" "Certainly not default to the enemy." "Have you ever in your life made a compromise with a conviction?" "I was always afraid that if I started, it wouldn't be easy to stop." "I suppose you're referring to me." "Intending an insult." "I think you should know one thing, captain:" "You can't insult me because I hold no value for the way you think." "And I know the way you think." " Ideals and gallantries..." " That's right." "The officer's code." "That's the way my father thought." "He was a general." "A very great gentleman of the old school." "But after the war, when things changed and he discovered that uniforms, medals and honor couldn't buy food and medicine for his family, what did he do?" "He couldn't beg or violate the code, no." "So he shot himself." "Leaving me and my sisters and my mother to survive." "That was his way and your way." "But it's not my way." "I survived, all right." "I made my own life, my own code." "You have your medals and your trophies." "Well, I have my trophies too." "You see, I have succeeded, Captain Ehrlich." "Did anyone ever tell you that you're beautiful when you're angry?" "The captain hasn't had shore leave since Singapore." "You're quite a woman, Elsa." "He was in your room." "He came to get some charts." "Took him quite a while." "His only interest is his ship." "He's a strange man." "In anyone else, his beliefs would be a pose." "Not Ehrlich." "They're his life." "You sound as if you're losing your dislike for him." "I don't think that will happen." "Anyway, what difference does it make?" "We're gonna be a long time tied down on this ship." "A long, dreary time." "I expect we'll survive." "Well, with certain compensating moments, perhaps." "Elsa I find you a very fascinating woman." "Do you?" "I don't like impatient men." "I can be very, very patient, as long as I know he isn't..." "He isn't." "And he won't be." "Chief." "Chief, you're cutting down on my speed." "We're gonna need every day and minute when we get to Pom Pom Galli when the Rockhampton starts making its sweep to the north." " What's the matter with you?" " Headwinds, captain." "It's the headwinds." "I didn't wanna tell you until I was positive but we don't have enough coal to run to Pom Pom Galli." " Are you sure?" " That's the story." "No coal, eh?" "No coal." "Well, we got wood." "We'll burn this ship in her own fires." "Ask the engine room, how does it look." " Engine room." " How's the wood lasting?" "Four more hours, I can give you." "Chief engineer says he can only give four more hours." "Then we'll start on the lifeboats." "And if that isn't enough we'll tear out the hatches and the doors take our chances on the weather." " Winkler." " Yes, sir?" "My sextant." " Captain, sir." " Yes?" "I'm no informer, but I think there's something you're entitled to know." "Know what?" "From the forecastle they're saying a ship belongs to her captain but the lifeboats belong to her crew." "How do you feel about it, Winkler?" "I don't know, sir." "I haven't made up my mind." " Stemme." " Yes, sir?" " Have the chief meet me in my cabin." " Right, sir." "Thanks for telling me." "All hands, turn to." "Trouble?" "Perhaps not." "Chief." "Down to the lifeboats, huh?" "Right." " Bosun." " Aye, sir?" "Let go of the lashings on number three and number four boats and smash them for fuel." "All right, sir." "Schlieter, you other men, swing in number one and number two boats." "All right, start working." "They're breaking up the boats, chief." "Yes." "There are two more, and we'll have to use those too." "Will you kindly stay off the bridge and in your cabin." "Engine room reports pressure still dropping, sir." "All right break up boat number two." "Land ho!" "Land ho!" " Where away?" " A point off starboard bow, sir." "Log it, Mr. Kirchner." "Schlieter, don't let there be a next time." "Ease your helm." "Midship." "Row bottom at 20 fathoms, sir." "Let go!" "Tell Mr. Schmitt we're finished with the engine." "Present!" "Fire!" "Firing party, present!" "Firing party, general salute." "Present." "We were instructed to continue the search and in order that the German ship not be alerted to make no mention of the atrocity until the authorities decided to release the news." "But what the world would think didn 't matter to the men of the Rockhampton." "This was no longer the mere pursuit of a freighter by a naval vessel but a crusade against the criminals of the Ergenstrasse." "And to me henceforth, a hateful vendetta against the friend I'd lost somewhere back there." "Karl Ehrlich, a man I had ceased to know." "From here to Valparaiso, it's a 14-day run." "To get there, the Ergenstrasse will burn 30 cords of wood a day." "Mr. Schmitt will tell you what that means." "It means we work 14 hours a day." "Full hours." "We get moonlight in four days." "When it comes, we work 18 hours a day." "We know it's going to be hard and difficult, but it's the only way home." "And for your further information, this is an uninhabited island." "I repeat, an uninhabited island." "Now, we're short of provisions." "There's fresh water ashore, but no food except a few coconut palms and breadfruit trees." "And I intend to ration them." "As for recreation, you'll have little time for it." "However, there will be swimming parties morning, midday and evening." "As we all know, there is a woman onboard so it will be necessary for me to ask you to wear some kind of clothing during your morning and evening swims." "During the midday break, our passenger will cooperate and remain in her quarters." "That is all." "Bosun, turn them to." "Heinz." "I'm all right, sir." "Of course you are, but we got more important work for you." " You're an old soldier, aren't you?" " Yes, sir." "Sergeant in the signal corps." " So I've heard." "You see that peak?" " Yes, sir." "You'll be our lookout." "You go up there and watch for smoke." "All points of the compass, every daylight hour." "And no daydreaming." "We're all in your hands." "The ship, all of us." " Yes, sir." " Here." "Wear my glasses." "Yes, sir." "Back to your pots and pans, huh, soldier?" "I am the lookout." "You are all in my hands." "Very thoughtful of you." "But don't you think that climb is a little hard for him?" "It is." "And it is also near midday, if you don't mind my reminding you." "Mr. Bachman will see you to your quarters." "Everybody up the boat deck before you go below." "Both hands up to the elbows." "Nothing like brine for a toughener." "Won't help the rat bites." " When did you get that?" " Last night." "Me too." "On the leg." "Well, we'll see what we can do about it." " How are your people doing, chief?" " Keeping ahead of you, captain." "Good." "Brounck?" "Pack some food for Heinz." "I'll take it up to him tomorrow." "What have you there?" "Some of the meat is rotten." "I was going to throw it over the side." "You'll keep it." "We'll use everything aboard this ship." "A lonely place for a grave." "We'll have to get it cleaned up before we leave." "I wonder who it is." "Schaffner and Becht." "Fever got them." "I was young Stemme's age then, in charge of the burial party." "Yes, we'll have to get it cleaned up." "And you remember their names after all this time?" "The Greeks believed that a man was immortal as long as his name was remembered on earth." "These two were good men." "Seamen." "You wanna see the island, I'm taking this food up to the peak." "Thank you." "You'd better take a little rest." "I hope the old soldier is all right." "Tougher climb than I thought." "In all your life, you've never done very much except for your men and your ships, have you?" "When I was a cadet, they taught us that was a way of life." "Pretty hard to change what you learn in your youth and believe." "And that's what this whole fantastic voyage is, really:" "A habit of life, stubbornness of the soul." "Not entirely." "This is a part of the war." "I'm still beating the enemy at it." "You've never really been in love, have you?" "Once or twice I've had charming illusions." "But never strong enough to chance marriage?" "To put it another way, I'm a practical man, a realist." "With only one love, the sea." "I never quite looked at it that way." "I'm beginning to understand why men go to sea." "I've been watching it." "It's never the same." "One moment calm then stormy." "Darkness, light..." " It's always changing." " Like a woman." "A mystery." "Part of a great mystery." "When I first met you I never thought I could sit here trying to understand you." "Or even liking you." "I'll give you a hand, Mr. Kirchner." "That should stop you." " Teaching her chess, chief?" " No, she's teaching me." " Everything go well today, captain?" " Wonderful." "I'm glad to hear it." "I hear you've asked for a work party for tonight." "That's the order." "Don't you think you're pushing them beyond their capacities?" "These men aren't you." "A man's capacity is usually relative to his goal." "You've got them working incredible hours." "While there's a full moon, they'll work nights." "They won't be able to go on if you persist in driving..." "Elsa, in there." "I forgot to mention a highly probable reason why I've never married:" "I like to run my own ship." "Excuse me, sir, Miss Elsa." "Everything will be ready, as you ordered." "Won't be able to give you anything special to eat." "But this is the last bottle, as cold as I can get it." "I found your navy buttons and put them in your white jacket." "Special dinner tonight, Elsa." "Captain's orders." "Our best tablecloth." "Haven't used it since Singapore." "Brounck." "So not since Singapore?" " Did you remove the rat guard?" " Right now, sir." " How's it going ashore?" " Nearly finished, sir." "Smear it as far out as you can." "That ought to do it in reverse." "I got to admit, I was wrong this time." "I thought he was gonna feed it to us." "Let's get back to the ship and get clean." " What's the matter?" " Rats!" "Getting rid of some of our more unwelcome passengers." "Don't worry it's according to plan." "How's it working?" "It's working." "I'd hate to come back to this island 20 years from now." "Ours was the desperation of groping in the dark." "And then I began to remember an island I'd once heard Ehrlich talk about:" "Pom Pom Galli." "And our search was leading us in its direction." "I knew he was fighting the laws of nature with survival hanging on the human endurance of weary, driven men." "If we could overtake him, he would hang." "He and his criminals." "We've scoured the Chathams, Samoa, Fiji and the Tongas." "And it's very doubtful he could make Pitcairn." "It almost has to be one of the Tuamotus." "Some island with a deep harbor, good water and a good stand of timber." "He has some idea about an island in one of the more remote groups." "That's right, Pom Pom Galli." "A place Ehrlich said the German raider went in the last war." "A reason why they might not go there." "I can't bypass all islands in between." "Unfortunately, I can name 50 such islands over 1000 miles of ocean but search parties will be organized." " Thank you." " This will take time." "It'll take Ehrlich time to chop his wood." "The ax against the hangman's noose." "I got a system working for me on these trees." "I pretend they're all named Captain Ehrlich." "First I give him this!" "Then I give him this!" "And then I slice him port to starboard!" " How did it happen?" " It was an accident." "No, it wasn't." "It was my fault." "Sorry, Winkler." "Get him aboard ship." "Not you." "All right, the rest of you, get back to work." "Schlieter, from now on, you're gonna do the work of two men." "Not two like you, but two like him." "Best man in our crew." "And I don't think you can do it." "Like I've been telling you, there's one lifeboat left." "Tahiti looks pretty good now, huh?" "Oh, shut up!" "I'll show him who's the best man in this crew!" "Better hurry up with swimming." "You'll miss breakfast." "That'd be a great loss." "He means we might miss the pleasure of our little excursion ashore." "Shark!" "Shark out there!" "Shark!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "A shark!" "Woolrich, give me your shirt for a tourniquet!" " Brounck." " Yes, sir." "Clear a table and boil all the water you can." "Break out some clean sheets." "Mr. Bachman." " Sir?" " Get him into the mess hall." "Anything I can do, captain?" "Looks like we're gonna have to..." " You better put an edge on that." " I know, I know." "You can be of some help in the mess hall." "Take this to shore and get rid of it." "You'd better get on with your working party." "He's still alive." "Give her one." "It's awful nice of you to do this, Miss Keller." "No trouble at all." "I'll have them for you tonight." "Thank you." " I'll give you a hand with that line." " Well, thank you." "You know, for the past three or four days..." "My leg!" "My leg!" "My leg!" " My leg!" " Brounck!" "You know we need..." "Walter!" "Hurry!" "Walter." "He'd be more comfortable in my cabin." " Get it ready, Brounck." " Yes, sir." "Take it away!" "Captain." "What is it?" "I'm sorry to interrupt your work and I have no intention of telling you how to run your ship." "The only important thing now is the condition of Stemme." "We're doing the best we can." "The Rockhampton has a doctor onboard." "Captain." "A signal, sir." "Elsa, if I were to call the Rockhampton..." "First, let me explain about gangrene..." "This ship or 10 more like her isn't worth this boy's life." "Ashore there!" "Have Kirchner report aboard immediately!" "Pardon me." "Kruger, join me in my cabin." "You sent for me?" "At Auckland Island, Mr. Kirchner, you committed murder." "That word hardly applies in war." "You slaughtered those fishermen without cause." " I did what was necessary, expedient." " Log it as it happened." "I'm waiting, Mr. Kirchner." "Did they attack you?" "I don't give my enemies the opportunity to attack me." "Were they armed?" "I didn't waste time searching them." "So stated." "Sign it!" "Ehrlich, I promise you, you're gonna live to regret this." "You'll continue to address me as "captain" or spend the rest of this trip in irons." "I consider you a filthy murderer, unfit to grace the company of decent men." "You've dishonored a ship." "Were we to be captured now, we'd be tried and hanged as criminals and deservedly so." "There are good men aboard this ship, Kirchner, and dark nights." "So for your own sake, say nothing till we get to Valparaiso." "Now, crawl out of here." "Schlieter, you're doing all right." " I got a system." " I heard about it." "It works." "Probably never be any love lost between us, but I was wrong about you." "You're doing a good job." "Heinz!" "My heart..." "You won't tell the captain?" "Well, I'm afraid I must." "You're not fit to be here." "No, no, please." "Down there, I'm only Heinz, the cook's mate." "Washing pots and pans." " Up here, I'm the lookout." " And we all depend on you." " Yes, even Captain Ehrlich." " Even the captain." " I'm important now." " Yes, you are." "But since we do depend on you, you better get down and get some rest." "Of course." "Of course." "They'll need somebody always alert." "Anyhow, I haven't missed everything." "At least once, a beautiful lady had her arm around me." "Thank you, miss." "Thank you." "Napier, I looked at those charts again." "There are many, many islands." "Needle-in-the-haystack stuff." "The more I think about it, the more certain I am he's gone to Pom Pom Galli." "You may be right." "That's where we'll head for." "Right, sir." "Kruger tells me he has a bearing on the Rockhampton." "She's getting closer, chief." "Captain, I've been going over my figures, and with what wood we have cut..." "Wesser." "Is he resting?" "Didn't you hear me?" "Is he resting?" "What's it to you?" "Do you wanna log it?" "You wanna make it look good in your reports?" "You think of everything." "Pulling the strings on all of us like we're puppets." "He's in there dying, understand?" "You're getting your wood chopped." " You're gonna be a famous..." " Wesser..." "Nothing." "You young fool!" "You know what the captain has been doing for both you and Stemme?" "Making you sailors!" "Trying to make men out of you!" "You realize how he feels about Stemme?" "What he would do for Stemme if he could?" "That boy isn't dying." "He's dead!" "He's been dead since eight hours after that shark bite." " When gangrene set in, he was..." " That'll do, chief." "Wesser, go below." "He's only a boy, captain." "He was overwrought." " What he said..." " What he said was that I've been trying to play God." "Perhaps he's right, perhaps I have been." "Working them, driving them, starving them, for what?" "Integrity." "Integrity or vanity?" "I don't know." " I'm gonna signal the Rockhampton." " Why?" "If there was one chance in a million of saving that boy, I would agree with you." "But there isn't, and you know it!" "If you notify the Rockhampton of our position it means every man, including Wesser, will be stamped a war criminal." "I tried to tell you before, captain." "I'm fairly certain, if we clear the wood on the beach, I can get you to Valparaiso." "Don't make a decision tonight, captain." "Wait until morning." "All right, chief." "Prepare to get underway in the morning." "We'll bury him at sea." "Bosun!" "Stop that work." "There will be no burial." "Schlieter, take those men with you and lower the boat again." "Yes, sir." " That's the last boat." " You heard the order, move." "Captain, I've got Winkler and Heinz on the boat deck." "He can't mean that!" "I don't know." "It'll mean medical attention for you, Heinz." "And you'll walk again." " I'm willing, sir." " So am I, sir." "I knew you would be." "Thank you both." "Start heaving." "That's their story, sir." "They were carrying a charge of explosives." "When they hit the reef, it blew the keel wide open." "They had only one lifeboat." "Ehrlich got some of the injured into it, and then there was a second explosion." "Anything to say about the Auckland murders?" "They denied it, of course." " Have the surgeon take a look at them." " Right, sir." "When a search disclosed no wreckage or other survivors we knew he'd slipped from our grasp." "The Ergenstrasse, that tired old woman of the sea had gained the slight margin of time necessary to reach Valparaiso." "She was fast becoming an international heroine and German propaganda was smothering the Auckland incident to make a legend of her." "Make her fast where she is." "Tell Mr. Kirchner to wait in the mess room until I've seen the consul." "Yes, sir." "The consul's in your cabin, sir." "I'll see the port authorities after I've talked to him." "Yes, sir." "Elsa, I wanna talk to you before we go ashore." "About this great glory you've won?" "Well, it's all yours." "Enjoy it." "But enjoy it alone." "Hepke, consul general." "Ehrlich, you've established a great tradition." "Thank you, consul general." "Have a chair." "An accomplishment to be written in the annals of the sea." " The voyage isn't completed yet, sir." " You achieved your purpose." "To risk capture again might destroy everything." "You are proof that the great Royal Navy is not, after all, invincible." "Now, give me the straight story on this propaganda the British are putting out those so-called murders at Auckland Island." "It's not propaganda." "They were murders." "There's the proof." "I prefer to believe they were armed belligerents erecting a wireless station." "That they were killed in open combat." "The first land action in the Pacific, and a gallant victory for us." "That story, with the news of your arrival, has flashed around the world." "By what right do you compound murder with a bald-faced lie?" "By whose authority do you compromise this ship and my personal honor?" "Think of your crew." "Haven't they a right to a good name?" "I intend they'll keep that right not have it dragged through the mud for one man's crime." "I plan to take the man responsible, my chief officer, Mr. Kirchner before a naval court-martial as soon as we're home." "That's your privilege, and it's quite correct but for the sake of our country let's not air our dirty linen here, before an often hostile press." "What do you suggest that I do?" "The Rockhampton is due in Valparaiso tomorrow." "You can't leave." "I'll take my chances with the British." "They won't waste a warship watching this harbor for long." "Very well, captain, if you insist." "Seamanship is your forte." "But I beg to remind you, propaganda is mine." " Lf I assist you, you must help me." " I won't lie for you." "I wouldn't think of asking you to lie." "You haven't had the diplomatic training." "Just let me handle the press releases." "In exchange, I'll get you your clearance papers, everything you need." "Kirchner will ask for a passport and passage home." "I insist that he return on this ship with me." "If that's your wish, of course, captain." "Don't forget, tomorrow you'll be guest of honor at a banquet, Hotel Astur." "I've arranged quarters for you there, and my aides will be at your disposal." "So for now, good day, captain." "Good day." "Must have been exciting, one woman on a ship, alone, with so many men." "Especially with the great Captain Ehrlich." " He is so, so..." " I know." "Good evening." " How perfect." " Thank you." "You know, for once, I'm actually sorry for Ehrlich." "Why?" "After all, he's achieved everything he's wanted." "Well, every man to his own desires." " Where are we dining?" " A little café." " Do they have music?" " Oh, yes." " Exciting?" " With you, yes." "Stand up straight, please." "Lean closer, please." "Easy, man." "She's enough for both of us." " Take another picture." " Thank you." "Here comes our captain now." " Tell us how you evaded the English." " No, Auckland Island, captain." "Now, I've covered that for you." "Have your pictures, but the captain's too weary to be interviewed." " Even about Auckland Island?" " Take your pictures, sir." "All right." "Again we must emphasize, photographs, but no interviews." "It's been a long chase, Karl." "I wish I could say it had been a good one." "All I care to hear is a retraction of these German lies about Auckland Island." "Do you say those men were armed?" "Do you say they were building a military wireless on a shipwreck station?" "Do you say they opened fire, these helpless, unarmed men I found dead?" "Do you?" "You were in command of that shore party." " And you were the last to leave." " British lies." "Not from Jeff Napier." "Do you?" "Whatever my ship is charged with, I am charged with." "The truth is set down in my log for you or anyone else to read the day you take my ship." "I never wanted to believe you sanctioned those murders but now I call you what you are:" "A murderer, a liar and a coward!" "Napier!" "You're forgetting who and where you are." "Wait outside." "Captain Ehrlich, the Rockhampton will be waiting for you." "Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to have you attempt to leave." "Good night, sir." " Elsa, please." " Don't touch me!" "The English are bad losers and flaunters of international law." "Proceed with the banquet." "I'll join you later." "I'll soon have a statement ready on this barbaric incident." " Get the people to the banquet." " Yes, sir." "Captain." "Your restraint was admirable, captain." "The courage of silence." "It made the English appear all the more the aggressors." "Get out." "Oh, this has upset you." " You shouldn't be alone." " Perhaps not, but I can do without you." "You're tired." "I'll see you after you've had some rest." " Operator." " Miss Keller's room, please." "One moment, please." " She's not?" " Shall I try later?" " Did she leave word where she'd be?" " I'm sorry, sir." " Shall I try later?" " Thank you." "Thank you." "Elsa." "Oh, Karl!" "That night aboard the ship, I told you my way of thinking." "Yet I didn't tell you the complete truth because I never even admitted it to myself." "Still, it was there." "You had your illusions and ideals." "I never had any illusions but I had an ideal." "I've known many men, Karl." "I won't deny that." "But I never thought I would meet one that I could be proud of." "Now I've found him." "Don't confuse sincerity of purpose with success." "There's still 15,000 miles to the flag stead light." "That's what I'm trying to tell you, darling." "The consul has orders that I should stay here." "But why must you try to go on?" "You've done the impossible." "No one would think less of you now if you accepted internment." "Oh, please, Karl, give it up." "Elsa you call it an illusion." "Perhaps it is, but it's part of me." "I may fail, but I can't quit." "Hold me." "Tell me." "Tell me." "I love you." "With the scarcity of shipping in this area I don't think we can get in trouble until we reach here." "You've said nothing about Elsa." "Elsa remains ashore." "How about supplies?" "Everything's onboard, sir, including ample fuel." " Of course, our main worry..." " Is the men." "Some of them won't return to the ship, and I can't say I blame them." "They'll all be here, sir." " Everybody's onboard, sir." " Everybody, sir." "Good." "Thank them for me, will you?" "No, I'll go below and thank them myself." " Captain." " We've got a problem, sir." " Trouble ashore?" " Yes, sir." "Last night we're in the bars and we run up against some British sailors." " A fight?" " No, sir." " They seemed decent." " A lot like us." "So we decided to have a contest." " Drinking?" " Well, sort of, sir." "They promised to bring us back, sir." "And that's the last thing I remember." "But the problem is, sir:" "How do you get rid of a tattoo?" " Looks like it's been there a long time." " Not that one, sir." "Turn around." "This one, sir." ""Britannia rules the waves."" "We maintained our blockade at the harbor and no cat ever watched a mouse hole more intently." "Would Ehrlich chance it or wouldn 't he?" "It was becoming an international thriller with sympathy running, as it always does, to the underdog." "And the dog was about to have his day." "Number One!" " Sir?" " We're going to have more exciting duty." "Our cruisers Ajax, Achilles and Exeter are in action off of Uruguay against the Graf Spee." "We are ordered to proceed at once." "What about the Ergenstrasse?" "Where's your sense of proportion, man?" "A battleship is worth 10 tramp steamers." "Yes, but not 10 Ehrlichs, sir." "Napier, you're making this altogether too much of a personal vendetta." "Then perhaps you'd endorse my request for a transfer to the North Sea patrol." " He's gotta come through there." " I'll see that you are accommodated." "Now, if you don't mind, I have my ship to look after." "The lights of Valparaiso are still astern, Mr. Bachman." "Any further instructions for the night-order book, sir?" "No further instructions for the night-order book, Mr. Kirchner." "Just keep to your quarters when not on duty." "No premonition this time?" "For better or for worse." "While the Rockhampton headed for the Graf Spee I was in an airplane bound for England." "But Karl Ehrlich, through the fortunes of war had once more gained valuable time." "He was still beating the sea and us." "Still sailing homeward against almost impossible odds." "His obsession had made a new crew of the men of the Ergenstrasse." "And in spite of my hatred for the man, I felt a certain ironic admiration for the captain who had welded the steel of his own character into that plodding heap of scrap iron." "Fed and rested, she beat her way up the Atlantic." "Her belly was full now of all necessary coal and provisions and new lifeboats hung from her davits." "The storms threatened her, yet in a way they aided her by hiding her in their turbulence." "A little ship unnoticed in a big ocean battling and staggering under the fury of the elements." "As I waited for her in the North Sea at the crossroads of the war I hoped desperately that no other force would rob me of my quarry." "And I was alert day and night for any report which might be received in London." "This is Berlin calling and here again is Lord Haw-Haw at the microphone of our shortwave station speaking to England." "We've all heard of the Ergenstrasse 's game of hide-and-seek with the Royal Navy." "It's been most amusing to report the bungling British attempts to capture her." "We're therefore going to lend them a helping hand." "Some enlightening clues to the evasive Ergenstrasse 's whereabouts." "Of course, from their former record, it'll do them little good." "Are you ready, admiralty?" "The Ergenstrasse is now proceeding along the coast of Norway at a present speed of about 5 knots." "At this moment, she should be off the mouth of Korsfjord." "Captain!" "The Nazis had made a decoy of the Ergenstrasse." "Karl Ehrlich, on the brink of fulfillment had been betrayed by the new party to which everything was expendable." "It must have been a shock, but no surprise to him because it didn 't alter his determination." "Tell the engine room to cut down on the smoke, Mr. Bachman." "Aye, aye, sir." "Yes, I've read that monitored report of Lord Haw-Haw's broadcast." "They're inviting us to send out heavy ships." "Ships that we need badly." "Give their air force a field day." " A stupid invitation we won't accept." " Thank you, sir." "I know I'm violating procedure, coming directly to you but this has become an issue that I can't put aside." "How does your crew feel about it?" "Same as I do, sir." "They're all volunteers." "If I consent, where do you propose intercepting your friend?" "Thank you, sir." "I believe somewhere in here." "Elsa, how long have we known each other?" "I've known you since that day on the island." "When I was driving this crew 24 hours a day?" "At the grave." "That's a long time ago." "When you said, "They were good men." "Seamen."" "That they were." "Well, it's a poor reward, a forgotten grave." "Not forgotten." "Immortality has nothing to do with fame." "Come on outside, I have a present for you." "That's the Norwegian coast." "Karl, you've kept another promise." "Perhaps your greatest." "You brought your men home." " And to all that it means to them." " And all that it means to them." "We'd better get out of the weather." "It means happiness and home for everyone else onboard but what about us?" "What about you?" "Arrest, imprisonment?" "Probably." "But we'll face that when we come to it." "Let's face it now." "This is a neutral coast." "Why can't we land here and let the men go on?" "Elsa, you're asking the captain to leave his ship?" "Captain!" "Captain!" "Ship off the starboard quarter, sir, showing no lights." "Bearing red 10, sir." "Put a shot across her bows." "Let this go over her." "Stop engine." "Pass the word to abandon ship." "Move!" " Engine room." " Schmitt, we will follow the plan." "Everybody out!" "Clear the bridge." "When she loses steerageway, get to the boat." "Aye, aye, sir." "She's losing headway, sir." "Lot of activity on the boat deck." "Might be some sort of trick." "Well, we'll see." "Elsa, this is our log." "Make sure it gets to Jeff Napier." "Schlieter!" "Hang onto this for Miss Keller." "But aren't you coming on the same boat?" "No." " Everything rigged below?" " Yes, but I'm staying with you." "Chief, I promised you your grandchildren." "Get in that boat." " But..." " That's an order!" "All right, everyone aboard!" "Mr. Kirchner, report to the bridge." "Kirchner, you're staying aboard with me." " What?" " You're such a loyal party member you'll fight for your cause, while I defend my ship." "Your ship?" "You're a lunatic!" "You have no crew, no armament, no guns." " But a propeller." "One." " Now..." "There's no activity onboard at all now, sir." "Boats are approaching us, sir." "Are we going to pick them up?"

"The mouse." " Mouse." "He sat on the mouse, and took seven rounds around his parents." "They asked him, ""What did you do""." "He replied, ""Whether you call it earth, or my world.." "..my parents are everything for me""." "Lord Shankar was very pleased to hear this." "He said, ""Ganesh, whenever there"s a veneration performed.." "..anywhere in the world, you will be venerated first""." "Otherwise, that veneration won"t be successful." "That"s why, Lord Ganesha is the God of Gods." "Because he respects his parents."

" It's a nightmare." "Everyone at my wedding is gonna look better than me." "It could be worse, McGee." "Could be flying over the Atlantic with Gibbs right now." "I don't know, transporting a dead body may be more fun than this, actually." "Come on, mate." "Look at you." "You look dashing." "Yeah?" "Really think so?" "Yes." "Showstopper." "Mm-hmm."

"This is Chief Choi, our on board corpsman." "Nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you." "Appreciate you flying out." "Yeah, not a problem." "This is Dr. Palmer, assistant medical examiner." "Happy to be here." "I'm not happy that your, um, sailor's dead, obviously." "That's-that's terrible." "I'm happy as in, uh," "I am happy to help in any way that I can... medically speaking." "Someone else please say something." "Uh, Chief, would you take Dr. Palmer to Petty Officer Jones' body?" "Yes, sir." "This way." "This is Jones' service record." "Yeah." "When was his body discovered?" "0645 yesterday morning by his division officer," "Ensign Stoddard." "Master-at-arms sealed off the area and took photos." "Anything suspicious?" "Other than a seemingly healthy 22-year-old suddenly dropping dead, no." "I was hoping that NCIS would help me shed some light on this matter." "How well did you know Jones?" "He was assigned as my food service assistant." "We interacted on a daily basis." "He was a good kid, he was gonna make something of himself." "It's a damn shame." "When I was called to the scene," "I did an external exam and found no outward signs of trauma." "Any defensive wounds?" "Negative." "Did Petty Officer Jones have any preexisting medical conditions?" "Low blood pressure, which he was on medication for." "His last physical was two months ago, passed with flying colors." "Where are we headed?" "I thought that the body was found in crew berthing?" "He was, but per Navy protocol, his body was moved to cold storage for preservation." "Cold storage?" "Our food-service freezer." "The health department would have a field day with that." "We emptied the space out beforehand." "Again, per Navy protocol." "What the hell?" "Someone cut the padlock." "Jones' body... it's gone." "This will complicate the autopsy." "I jinxed us, didn't I?" "So much for a quiet day at the office." "So, you're telling me Petty Officer Jones was murdered?" "You can't know that without a body." "Somebody took it for a reason." "Why?" "You and your team are free to turn this place inside out, but this ship, my ship, is set to rendezvous with the carrier group in two days." "I can't alter course." "Commander, your ship's an active crime scene." "The only place it's going is back to Norfolk." "I can't tell you that." "Delilah and I want our first song to be a surprise." "Are you sure that's a good idea?" "Yeah, I'm sure." "Why?" "What are you thinking?" "Well, I don't know." "I've been to many weddings, man, and the first song the couple dances to, it's critical." "I mean, it sets the tone for the entire marriage." "All right, if I tell you, you got to promise not to tell anyone else." "You swear?" "My honor." "Which one is it?" "Huh?" ""Crazy in Love"?" ""Heaven"?" ""La Bamba"?" ""She Blinded Me with Science."" "'Cause when we first met, we bonded over science." "McGee, no." "No, no, no, no." "It was supposed to be cute." "You know, you're so lucky my hands are freezing right now 'cause I'll smack you." "Oh, really?" "You're cold?" "Try being stuck in there." "Did you find anything?" "Frostbite count?" "Nope." "Then I got nothing." "Where's Bishop?" "She's talking to Petty Officer Jones' division officer, Ensign Stoddard." "What do we know?" "The victim is Petty Officer" "Third Class Gregory Jones, 22." "He's from Overbrook, Pennsylvania." "Worked on board as a culinary specialist." "His parents were on vacation in New Zealand." "They're catching the next flight back to D.C." "Jones got a sister," "Regina, freshman at John Hamilton." "She's also been notified of her brother's death." "And it didn't take a criminal mastermind to break in." "The padlock on the freezer's just flimsy." "How do you steal a body on board of a ship full of people and nobody saw anything?" "Maybe someone did." "Finish up in there and go find out." "You two, back to D.C." "Talk to Jones' sister." "What does she know?" "The top rack is Jones'." "This is where you found him?" "Mm-hmm." "I was yelling at him." "Thought he had overslept and was slacking off." "Ensign Stoddard." "Sorry." "I just, I've never seen a dead body before." "Do you know what happened to him?" "That's what we're trying to figure out." "Uh, how long have you been the food service officer?" "A little over a year." "Jones is one of 20 culinary specialists that I supervise." "He get along well with everyone?" "Working food service on a ship is a tough job and often a thankless one, but Jones never complained." "He kept to himself and he worked hard." "But if he had an issue, he wouldn't have come to me." "Why not?" "The enlisted sailors tend to try and settle things amongst their fellow blue shirts before involving a superior officer, sort of a unspoken code of conduct." "All right." "Thank you." "That was the front gate." "Petty Officer Jones' sister is on her way in." "Perfect timing." "Delilah, hey." "And there she is, our beautiful, blushing bride." "Please, everyone, help me welcome the future Delilah Fielding McGee." "Nick, you are not emceeing our wedding reception." "All I'm saying is I can get the party started." "So, what are you doing here?" "I am dropping off our revised guest list." "You're in charge of invitations and these need to go out this week." "Wait, 308 guests?" "I thought we agreed on a small wedding." "Oh, we did." "Our mothers are a different story." "With both our families and our friends and everyone's plus-ones, this is where we are." "That's a rookie move." "You don't bring a date to a wedding." "Come on, man." "You're stuck with them all night." "So I can mark you down as solo then?" "Absolutely." "But you can trust me," "I will be leaving as a plus-one." "I'm gonna give you two lovebirds... some space." "Tim, there's still so much to do." "I'm-I'm starting to go into panic mode." "Don't worry about it, okay?" "I'm gonna handle these invitations." "Oh, it's not just the invitations." "We split our to-do list 50-50, Tim, and you've been slacking big time." "What are you talkin..." "No, I haven't." "Um, well, according to the wedding planner app, you are only, let me see here," "Uh, ooh, 22% complete." "Numbers don't lie." "Look, I am so sorry, all right?" "Work has been all-encompassing." "I've had no free time at all." "Oh, and you think that my 80 hours a week at the DOD is for funsies?" "Honey, I need you to step up." "Please." "This has to be a team effort." "I will step up, I promise." "Promise?" "Yes." "Thank you." "See you for dinner?" "Count on it." "Ms. Fielding." "Director." "Director Vance." "You know, pre-wedding tension." "As someone who was also married to a strong, intelligent woman, may I give you some advice, Agent McGee?" "Don't blow it?" "No." "Never take it for granted." "Not for one second." "And don't blow it." "Mmm." "Special Agent McGee." "Yeah, I'll be right there." "It feels like it's some sort of bad dream." "Like any minute I'll wake up, and everything's gonna be like it was." "Regina, we don't have to do this now." "We can wait until your parents get here." "No, their flight doesn't get in for hours." "I don't want to wait anymore." "I want to see my brother." "You can't." "Not yet." "Why not?" "I thought you needed me to identify his body." "We did, but some things have changed." "Regina, your, um... your brother's body is missing." "Missing?" "How?" "That's what we're trying to figure out." "I can't believe this is happening." "When was the last time you talked to him?" "Um..." "Greg e-mailed me two days ago." "I was too busy studying for finals." "I didn't write him back." "He sounded really stressed out." "I should have made time for him." "Stressed out about what?" "He was having issues with his supervisor." "Said he was being unfairly singled out." "Picked on." "But he never told me specifics." "Which supervisor?" "Ensign Stoddard?" "No." "A petty officer." "I think Greg said his name was Haring." "You're both out of your damn minds." "I got work to do, I don't have time for this." "Well, time won't be something you'll really have to worry about at Leavenworth." "Does that appeal to you?" "No." "Then take a seat." "You seem a little defensive, Haring." "Because you think I had something to do with Jonesy's death." "Prove us wrong." "Why were you hazing Jones?" "Hazing?" "It wasn't anything like that." "It was all in good fun." "We were just ragging on him." "It's what sailors do to each other." "We?" "The galley crew." "Jonesy was trying to transfer out of the food service division." "As payback for ditching us, we had him do extra duty." "Scullery, grease traps, that kind of thing." "That's it?" "I told you, we were just messing around." "We weren't actually angry with the kid." "He was our friend." "Well, we checked every compartment on board, no signs of Jones' body." "Crew?" "No one saw anything, no one heard anything." "Someone's lying." "McGee, where are you?" "Portsmouth Pier, with the Coast Guard." "One of their patrol boats just pulled a body out of the water." "Jones?" "I'm afraid so." "Looks like his body bag was wrapped inside an industrial trash bag, and an attempt was made to weigh it down." "Something about Jones' body that someone doesn't want found." "Petty Officer Jones' cause of death was a myocardial infarction." "Too young for a heart attack, Ducky." "Indeed." "But while there are some rare cases, this young man's death was not a natural one." "And according to Abby's blood panel, fludrocortisone was found in Jones' system." "It's a medication used to treat low blood pressure." "It's noted in his medical file." "That would kill him?" "Yes and no." "He also tested positive for methylenedioxymethamphetamine, more commonly referred to as MDMA." "Uh, "molly."" "Ecstasy?" "Disco biscuits, happy pills, egg rolls, hug drugs." "Uh, dancing shoes..." "Taken separately, neither of these substances would prove fatal." "But they were taken together." "That caused a lethal reaction, which sent Jones into cardiac arrest." "This is the rope that we found tied around the body bag." "I was just about to bring it up to Abby." "These corresponding marks on his ankles suggest that he was tied down, uh, weighed down with something quite heavy." "Strange, though, the line isn't frayed or cut." "The knot must have slipped loose." "Ah, it's Ginger and Mary Ann." "Welcome back." "How was your three-hour tour?" "I have never been so happy to see these orange walls." "All right, the ship wasn't that bad." "Huh?" "What?" "Maybe to you." "I was in the freezer." "My body temperature still has not gotten back to normal." "What about the crew?" "Well, the ship is on lockdown, so no one's going anywhere." "Anything on Petty Officer Jones?" "Nothing." "The kid was squeaky-clean." "No police records, no debts." "The guy's credit score is better than mine." "Hmm, no previous drug issues?" "No, his sister was adamant that he just wasn't into drugs." "Siblings don't always tell each other the truth." "Maybe he was ashamed to tell her." "Except Jones was so hyper-aware of his blood-pressure medication that he wouldn't even drink coffee." "I mean, he avoided caffeine, and he decided to dabble in ecstasy?" "Does that make sense to anyone?" " Delilah and I - are not fighting." "That's good, 'cause you would not like it if I took sides." "Why, what are you saying?" "That you would take Delilah's side over mine?" "Yep." "You think, just because I'm your best man, that I'm gonna agree with everything you say?" "Yes." "Well, think again, Buster." "You've got to be kidding me." "Partnership is a 50-50 thing, McGee." "You've got to step up." "Abby, I'm aware of this, okay, and I already agreed to make more of an effort with the wedding." "But can we please talk about something else?" "Sure." "How about Petty Officer Jones' stomach content?" "You found something." "The MDMA in Jones' system wasn't just your run-of-the-mill pill." "It was a capsule full of crystalline powder." "What's the difference?" "It's practically like a double dosage." "Meaning that the side effects would be twice as strong." "Like, intense euphoria and trippy hallucinations, and a serious jolt to your heart rate." "Making for a death sentence for Jones." "Yeah." "Check this out." "The highest concentration of the drug was found in the undigested food that was still in Jones' stomach." "The powder was mixed in with his sweet potatoes." "Why would he do that?" "He wouldn't." "I think someone laced Jones' food with the MDMA, and it killed him." "MDMA?" "It's an illegal party drug that..." "I-I know what it is, I just can't imagine" "Petty Officer Jones taking it." "He was not that kind of kid." "He didn't take it, exactly." "Somebody slipped it into his food." "More specifically, his sweet potatoes." "Are you sure about that?" "Mm-hmm, it's where it was concentrated in his stomach contents." "It says here the crew had spaghetti that night." "No sweet potatoes on the menu?" "Commander." "Just on mine." "I-I special order them." "Only this time, when Jones brought 'em out," "I had already lost my appetite, so..." "So you offered them to Jones." "I didn't..." "I didn't know." "Those drugs were meant for you." "I guess so." "But why?" "You have any issues with anyone on your crew?" "With over 200 in my command, I can pretty much guarantee there are more than a few issues I don't know about." "What crew members had access to your meals, Commander?" "Just the food service team." "Lights out." "Lights out." "All hands turn in..." "Talk about a needle in a haystack." "I don't know, maybe not." "So sailors get headaches?" "Don't be so naive, Quinn." "Oh." "Oh." "Uh..." "All right, if you had ecstasy, where would you hide it?" "I wouldn't have ecstasy." "Hey, speaking of headaches, are you gonna take a plus-one to McGee's wedding?" "No, no." "You mean like a date?" "Yeah." "Really?" "Nah." "Yeah." "Weddings are weird enough without the extra pressure." "Oh, man, I totally agree." "I'm right there with you." "Besides, it's way more fun to watch all the creepy guys troll the wedding, looking for single women to hook up with." "You know the type." "Uh, sure." "Yeah." "I mean, I just..." "I just know that sometimes real relationships come out of those hookups." "Really?" "I don't think so." "Anyone going after such low-hanging fruit, they're not really interested in a relationship." "It's actually quite pathetic." "Uh, I wouldn't call it pathetic." "I don't know, but maybe I'm just the romantic type." "Oh..." "What is this?" "Not aspirin." "Whose bunk?" "Petty Officer Haring." "So much for our innocent buddy." "Huh." "Sorry I'm late." "All right, 300 invitations, here I come." "Delilah?" "Hey." "Yeah, I'm in here." "Hey." "Hi." "Wow, is that the time?" "Yeah, it's 9:30." "You okay?" "Uh, yeah, yeah, I'm fine, I just hit a wall, going over the invitations;" "I thought I'd lay down for a minute, and suddenly, it's two hours later." "Oh, well, obviously, you needed it." "You've been burning the candles at both ends." "Mmm." "You lay down," "I will go work on the invitations, and what I don't get to, we'll do in the morning." "No." "Honey, we can't." "I want to feel like we accomplished some work today." "That's what this is beginning to feel like, is work, huh?" "You know, it's our wedding, it's supposed to be fun." "And it will be fun." "As soon as we get the invitations in the mail." "There's only one guest I really care about coming, anyway." "Who?" "What do you mean, who?" "You." "Aw." "Me, too, you." "But we're not guests, Tim, we're the main event." "Will you please grab my chair?" "But we are also two highly trained, skilled individuals who have done much more stressful things than throwing a wedding." "So I think we will be okay." "You all right?" "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Delilah." "No, no, no, no." "Delilah, Delilah." "Wake up." "Come on, wake up, honey, wake up, wake up." "Can you hear me?" "Wake up, honey, come on, come on." "Hey, Haring?" "Sing me one of them old classics." "You know, the one called, uh, "Those aren't mine."" "They aren't mine, I swear." "Someone must've planted them there." "Oh, that's my favorite." "That's the one." "Now, why would someone do that?" "I don't know." "Look, you got to believe me." "I told you," "I have no beef with Jonesy." "Hmm." "What about your C.O.?" "Whoa, what?" "What does the commander have to do with this?" "Bowline, Haring." "Tie me one." "Go." "Bowline?" "The knot." "Go." "Are you checking to see if he was a Boy Scout or a good sailor?" "I've been both." "Bowline." "Clove hitch." "Go." "You gonna tell me why I'm being tested?" "Tie the damn rope, Haring." "Okay." "Clove hitch." "Well, so what's next, Gibbs?" "You gonna have him knit you a sweater?" "He's not our guy." "How do we know that?" "The rope around the body was tied in a granny knot." "It's amateur, it's sloppy." "It's all wrong for weighing down a body." "Unlike this perfect clove hitch." "Like you would know an imperfect one?" "I passed basic seamanship, sister." "Not every sailor has." "All right, so we go back to the ship, and we perform this test with the whole crew." "It might not tell us who the killer is, but it might narrow down our suspects." "Yeah, McGee." "What?" "Where?" "Whoa, whoa." "Slow, whoa..." "Slow down." "Slow down." "Hey." "Hey, how is she?" "They're still running tests." "You should've called last night." "Boss, I was a mess, I was totally a mess." "Delilah was out cold until the paramedics arrived." "She's gonna be okay." "What if she's not?" "She will be." "She will be." "Come on, sit down." "Boss, when Delilah was paralyzed, the doctors said that there could be more complications..." "McGee." "Down the road." "What if this is now, what if this is down the road?" "This is down the road." "Tim." "Take a breath." "All right?" "Come on, have a seat." "Wedding invitations." "That's what we were talking about when she went down." "If those are our last words, I swear..." "No." "Won't be." "Keep breathing." "It's like, all the little things that we get so worked up every day, we ignore what matters most." "Look at me." "Let's just wait, okay?" "Wait and see." "And breathe?" "Oh, yeah." "And breathe." "What can I do, Abby?" "You could tell me Delilah's okay." "No word yet;" "Gibbs wants me to fill in until she is." "So, what have we got?" "Uh, major mass spec matched the MDMA found under Haring's bunk to the MDMA that killed Petty Officer Jones." "Though we're fairly certain Haring's not our guy." "Are you saying it's the exact same strain?" "Well, it's the exact same capsule." "Known on the street as..." "Blue Burgers." "Blue Burgers." "You know them?" "Yeah, I worked narcotics back home." "I know they're very popular." "Double dose and high intensity." "They look nothing like my kind of burger." "Just hung up with my friend Betty at the DEA." "And what did your friend Betty say?" "Well, her office has been trying for months to nail a dealer in Norfolk who specializes in Blue Burgers." "Do you have a name?" "Yep, uh, Vernon Palumbo." "Apparently, a big fixture in the Norfolk bar scene." "Okay, Vernon Palumbo." "He's got a long juvie record, mostly narcotics." "He was paroled last year from Norfolk Detention Center." "Fancy a drive, Ellie?" "Only if I'm driving." "He has trouble staying out of the left side of the road." "It was one time." "More than once." "It was one time, Ellie." "No, no, you keep checking, Torres." "Until we hear from Bishop and Reeves, no one leaves that ship." "No." "There is no news." "I'll let you know when there is." "What's the latest?" "No news for you, either." "Why does everybody have to know everything?" "Isn't that our jobs?" "Delilah!" "Thank you for keeping him company." "Hey, honey." "How you feeling?" "Oh, I got a whopper of a headache." "How are you?" "I'm better if you're better." "All right, well, come on, they're gonna move us to a room while doctors compare notes." "Agent Gibbs, you're welcome to stick around." "No, no." "You two go ahead." "Hey, uh, let me know." "Okay." "Boss..." "Ha." "Vernon." "How you doing?" "Heard you're a man who knows how to get things." "Is that right?" "Yeah." "And you are?" "I'm Clayton." "That's my girl over there, Ellie." "Hmm." "We're actually heading down to Miami for the weekend." "Was, uh, hoping to make things a little bit more interesting." "Let me stop you there." "First of all, you're obviously a cop." "So is your girl there." "You seem awfully sure of that, Vernon, uh, is there not a "second of all," or..." "Second, that's the worst British accent I ever heard." "Now, whatever it is you think I can "get" you, you won't find on me now, so, take a walk, mate." "Well, you're as good as advertised, Vernon." "Law enforcement's clearly no match for you." "Then why are you still here?" "Look." "It's not your Blue Burgers we're after." "We need a name." "A face, you know, whichever comes first." "Let's just say, hypothetically, you sold some ecstasy to a young sailor a week or so ago." "You expect me to remember?" "You know, "hypothetically"?" "Well, if not, we could not so hypothetically bring you down for questioning for a few days." "A few days?" "Yeah." "On what charge?" "Doubting my accent." "And while we question you, it'll sure look like you're cooperating with us, whether you are or not." "That can't be good for business." "Mm-mm." "Or your health." "Yeah." "And when would I have encountered this sailor you're looking for?" "Well..." "You know you're gonna be fine, right?" "Yeah, I know." "You sure you know?" "Yeah, I'm sure." "I know." "Well, if I'm not..." "Don't go there." "Don't go where, hon?" "There's here, there is here, we're here now." "This is happening." "And everything's gonna be fine." "I'm just saying, if it's not..." "Then whatever it is, we'll deal with it, okay?" "Can I finish, hon?" "Sorry." "I'm just saying, if it's not, we're still okay." "Hey." "As long as we have each other, we're okay." "Okay." "Okay, then." ""Okay" what?" "Have you slept, Agent McGee?" "No." "Yes." "Uh, doesn't matter." "How's Delilah?" "She's fine." "Really?" "Really." "Yes, aside from a mild concussion from your fall, brain function is completely normal." "Oh, that's great." "Yeah." "That's great news." "Same with the blood tests." "The recent stress likely contributed to you passing out." "But only because you're a tad anemic right now, and that's to be expected, so..." "Wait, what?" "Why is that to be expected?" "Well, in your current condition." "Oh." "Wow." "You don't know." "Know what?" "You're expecting." "Expecting what?" "A baby." "You're pregnant, about ten weeks." "Oh." "That's exactly how I imagined it." "Hey, Abby." "Oh, my God." "Not you, too?" "Hey, Abby." "I'm okay, I just, I just passed out." ""Just"?" "People don't just pass out." "It's okay, Abby, we're fine." "You're not fine." "You're glowing." "Why are you glowing?" "We're not glowing." "Mm, definitely glowing." "I didn't stay up all night worrying to not know why you are glowing." "All right, Abby, we haven't heard back from Delilah's mom yet, so until she knows, you can't tell anyone." "Seriously?" "Just until we let family know." "I'm not gonna tell anyone." "But... seriously?" "This... is... the best news ever!" "Been through half the crew so far and only half of them know how to tie Navy knots." "Uh, your rope trick is great for eliminating suspects, but not exactly finding them." "You' re on speaker, Bishop, how'd it go?" "And then there were three, Gibbs." "Three crew members from the McGuire that our dealer Palumbo thinks he may have done business with." "Anyone we know?" "Matter of fact, Clayton's texting over the one we know right now." "Stoddard, the food service officer." "Is Agent Quinn with you?" "Yeah, Clay, I'm here and, uh, just received your text." "Wait, isn't he the guy who found Jones dead in the first place?" "Mm-mm!" "Sure does smell good." "I hope you don't mind." "Actually, you're violating quite a few regulations." "Tell me you washed your hands, at least." "Oh, yeah, mine are clean." "How about yours?" "I scrub in like a surgeon for every meal." "Now, if you don't mind, lunch isn't for another hour." "These regulations, they meant to keep anybody from wandering in here and messing with the food?" "That's the basic idea, yeah." "Hmm." "Only authorized personnel like yourself have access to everything that comes out of this place?" "What are getting at, Agent Gibbs?" "He's getting at whatever problem you have with the commander." "You know what this needs?" "Grape jelly." "I don't have a problem with the commander, but I'll have him on both your asses in two seconds if you don't get the hell..." "There really is nothing to eat here." "I just want a burger." "You know, really rare, almost blue." "Do you have anything like that?" "I don't know what you think I did..." "We don't think, Stoddard." "It was an accident, okay?" "Just a prank." "I didn't mean for anybody to get hurt." "You did way more than hurt Jonesy." "It was meant for the commander." "Not to kill him, just to get him back for busting our humps." "Jonesy eating his food was a fluke." "Like throwing his body overboard?" "And planting the drugs in Haring's bunk?" "That a fluke, too?" "No." "I was just stupid." "When I saw the commander's empty plate next to Jonesy's body, I-I just..." "I thought it was gonna come back to me." "I guess I panicked." "Okay?" "I'm sorry." "I really am." "It's a little late for an apology." "Yeah, he kept calling it, uh, an accident, a total fluke." "Seems like him and our ecstasy dealer are made for each other." "Hey, you guys got the good news, right?" "Delilah's okay?" "Yes, uh, thank goodness." "Yep." "Just a fainting spell." "Probably just stress, you know, from planning the wedding and all," " but she's okay now." " Well, that's great." "Anything else?" "What?" "No, no." "No." "Why would there be something else?" "Heh." "I mean..." "I mean, that good news, that's... enough good news, right?" " Uh, yes." " Yeah." "That's very good news indeed," "Miss Sciuto, but I have a question." "Actually, question's for you," "Agent Gibbs." "Do you have any idea why McGee would invite me to his home for dinner tonight?" "Why?" "Why not?" "Well, it... it's not the invitation, it's the wording of the e-mail." "He marked it "personal" and..." "I was asked not to tell anybody." "Yet you're telling me." "Well, you're not anybody." "And... and it's just odd." "Short notice, the secrecy." "Well, if it makes you feel any better, they invited me." "I'm gonna be there." "You will?" "Mm-hmm." "Uh, me, me too." "Same invitation?" "Yeah, I got one too." "Me, three." "We all got invited, apparently." "Well, not much of a secret then, is it?" "Huh, why now?" "Why tonight?" "I know, so suddenly." "So soon after Delilah passed out." "Abby?" "Wow, place looks good as new." "Doesn't it?" "I mean, you'd never know the awful things that happened here." "But we know." "I still wish I didn't." "Hey, everyone, it won't be much longer." "Sorry to keep you all waiting." "Dinner is almost ready, I promise." "Actually, dinner is ready, but, uh, we're just keeping it warm until we can... tell you all something." "We have a little announcement to make." "Some good news to share." "Because you're all so special to us, we wanted to tell you all together, at once." "They already know." "What?" "Abbs?" "I'm sorry." "I got really, really excited and then I totally blew it." "And I'm sorry." "It's all right, you didn't blow it." "Actually, no, she did kind of blow it." "Hey, I got ahold of my mom this morning, so our families are covered;" "it is all good." "It's not all good, it's all wonderful!" "That's right." "Congratulations." "Thanks, guys." "But that is not the only reason you're here." "There is one more piece of business, and it is actually the real reason we asked you to be here tonight." "As you know, we've been planning our-our big summer wedding, but with a baby on the way, we didn't want to wait." "My mom found out she's gonna be a grandma, so the wedding somehow took a back seat." "In a few weeks, we'll have a party for out-of-town family, but right now, we want to share something with our other family." "One that means more to us than we could ever tell you guys." "Mm-hmm." "So with you all of you here, we'd like to get married." "But... what..." "for real?" "You mean, like, like, right now?" "Like, right here?" "Right here in Tony's creepy old apartment, Nick." "Just replace bad karma with good." "Abby, you're still my best person." "Unfortunately, we had a bit of a problem getting Delilah's sister on a flight out to London, so..." "What do you say, Gibbs?" "Be my man of honor?" "Be my honor." "Well, in that case, may I be the one to give you away?" "My father's looking down right now, and I am sure he would approve, Ducky." "Thank you." " Mm." " Well, then, all you need now is a priest or a rabbi or..." "Or a minister?" "Way ahead of you, Director," "McGee asked me this morning." "Dr. Palmer is now fully licensed for such occasions." "All it took was 20 minutes online and, thanks to the Interfaith Inspiration Church, you can now all refer to me as "Reverend Jimmy."" "Let's get this show on the road, people." "Come on, let's do it." "Yeah!" "Okay." "Hey, you okay?" "Yeah, just having a little problem with these cufflinks." "Admiral stars, that's nice." "They were my dad's." "Figured I'd wear them, almost like him being here." "Oh, he's here." "All right." "What do you think?" "Well..." "I think..." "Here." "Boss, I think something borrowed is more for the bride." "No, that's not borrowed, that's yours." "My mom gave it to my dad when they got married." "It's right before he shipped out." "My dad gave that to me on my wedding day." "I only wear it on special occasions." "You wore it tonight." "Well, yeah." "I had a feeling." "Boss, you sure there's no one else you'd rather give this to?" "Who better than you, Tim?" "Thank you, boss." "Hey." "Now that's a tux." "Ooh." "Triple woof." "Can you believe it?" "Oh..." "Thanks, Duck." "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to lovingly unite our good friends Timothy and Delilah in the joyful bonds of holy matrimony." "Now, Tim, repeat after me:" ""I, Timothy McGee..."" "I, Timothy McGee..." ""take you," "Delilah Fielding..."" "take you, Delilah Fielding..." ""to be my lawfully wedded wife."" "to be my lawfully wedded wife." ""I, Delilah Fielding..."" "I, Delilah Fielding..." ""take you, Timothy McGee..."" "take you, Timothy McGee..." ""to be my lawfully wedded husband..."" "to be my lawfully wedded husband..." ""in sickness and in health..."" "in sickness and in health..." ""in good times and in bad..."" "in good times and in bad..." ""for as long as we both shall live."" "for as long as we both shall live." "Now, by the power invested in me," "I now pronounce you husband and wife." "You should smooch." "Congratulations, Tim."

"Then call your damn boss!" "I need to see her right now!" "I told you, you can come back during visiting hours." "I'm a cop, make the call." "I'm sorry, sir, but there are no exceptions." "Your friend is being taken care of." "She's a danger to herself right now." "What the hell are you talking about?" "Screw this." " Sir, you need to leave..." "Now!" " Get out of my..." "Hey." "Do you want me to make a call to my friends, huh?" "We'll have a little rumble, huh?" " Holder, what the hell are you doing?" "!" " You want to go?" "Sir!" "Sir, they're trying to frame her." "We need to get her out of here right now." "Sarah entered sovereign Indian land without a warrant..." "For that matter, a badge." "I told her numerous times..." "I told both of you to stay out of there." "I should have taken your badge!" "She found evidence inside the casino that proves the tribe is covering up a murder." "Well, let's hope not because it will be completely inadmissible." "Look, Chief Jackson said she attacked a casino worker because she was trying to kill herself." "She's not suicidal, sir." "And you know it." "You've seen what they're capable of!" "Only a psychiatrist can get her out, Holder." "My hands are tied." "All right." "Oh, just a heads up..." "Call your boys down at county." "Rosie Larsen files - They up and disappeared somewhere between our house and theirs." "Guess you're in the wrong circle of trust, Lieutenant." "I need to use the phone." "Please." "I'd be happy to contact a family member for you, let them know you're here." "I need to talk to my partner." "You can't deny me reasonable access to a phone." "But this isn't a personal call." "I have important information regarding a case that needs to be relayed to my partner." "Right now you are impeding a murder investigation." "Sarah..." "The rules are in place." "That's fine." "I'll write him a note." "No, if you want to write him a note, you can dictate it to me." "I'll make sure he gets it." "When was the last time you ate something?" " Slept?" " I don't have to be in here." "You're on suicide watch, Sarah." "It's only for 72 hours." "Maybe you should get some rest." "I'm sorry I yelled at you." "I shouldn't have done that." "You were right, Terry." "I was so busy feeling sorry for myself" "I couldn't see what was happening to the boys." "Even before Rosie..." "I acted like if..." "I pretended like everything was okay, it would be." "You're being too hard on yourself, Stan." "Tommy killed some birds at school today." "He's suspended for two weeks." "He's angry..." "With everything that's happening." "Mitch leaving." "I just don't know what else to do." "Stan what happens if the cops never find the guy?" "You're angry 'cause you can't let go." "The boys can see it." "They're holding their breath wondering when it'll be okay to start living again." "You got to try, Stan." "How do I do that?" "Maybe you fix what you can." "And I don't know." "Maybe then you forgive yourself." "Love you." "Bye." " See you." " Okay." " Have a good day." " Bye." "Hey, you Regi?" "Can I help you?" "Yeah, I'm..." "I'm Stephen Holder." "Linden's partner." "Sarah found evidence in that casino linking Rosie Larsen's death to city hall." "Now they got her locked up for three days until the election's over and the case is buried for good." "And..." "What..." "What is it that you want me to do?" "Well, could you call someone, pull some strings?" "I thought you worked in Social Services or something." "Well, other than the hospital doctors, the only person that can get her released is her psychiatrist." "Okay." "W-who is she?" "You got her number?" "I can't give you that information, and I'm pretty sure Sarah wouldn't want me to." "There's proof in that casino proving that Sarah isn't crazy and how this all connects to the mayor." "Did..." "Did you see the proof..." "With your own eyes, or is that just what Sarah told you?" "Come on." "I can see that you care about her." "So do I." "You're the only family she's got." "And I don't like it that she's in there and she doesn't want to be." "But I've seen what she does to herself." "Who's taking care of Jack?" "He's in Chicago with his dad." "Work is the last thing that she needs right now." "It's why she got put in there in the first place." "I've seen what happens to her when she neglects everything else in her life." "When she thinks that she needs that case more than she needs sleep or food, more than her own son." "This is..." "This is how it started the last time." "Well, this time is different." "Yeah." " Yo, Ray, it's Holder." " I can't be talking to you." "Carlson's orders." "I thought you were on sick leave." "Hey, check out something for me." "Mayor Adams, Waterfront Project, and Michael Ames." "All right, I need any info you can get on Ames' company, Columbia Domain Fund, and the waterfront." "Like what?" "Looking for anything dirty..." "Arrests, union complaints, building code violations..." "I don't know." "Just do it." "You there?" "Yeah, yeah, I'm checking." "One arrest at the waterfront on record." "Couple of weeks ago, 9th precinct picked up a guy who broke in." "They cut him loose." "No charges." "Look, you're reaching, bro." "Couple of weeks ago?" "What was the date?" "October 5th." "The night Rosie Larsen was killed." "Yeah, there were dozen other crimes that night." "It doesn't mean it had anything to do with Rosie..." "What the hell are you doing here?" "Mr. Ahmed..." "I was wrong." "I know Rosie cared for you..." "That she came to say goodbye that night, and that's all." "You stay away from my family, or I'm calling the cops." "Do you understand?" "You've done enough." "Now, get out of here." "Get out of here!" "She's right here." "Okay." "Thank you." "I'm Dr. Kerry." "It's nice to meet you." "This is all a terrible mistake." "I can explain everything." "Do you mind if I call you Sarah?" "The nurse already told me..." "You were working a case." "Yes, I am." "But you have been suspended from the police department." "So you can't actually be doing that if you're no longer a detective, can you?" "A few days ago, you and your son fled from Child Protective Services who were responding to reports of neglect." "Since then, they've been unable to locate a residence for you." "Where have you been staying?" "At a friend's." "The woman who found you on the 10th floor of the casino said that you were about to jump." "And when she tried to pull you back, you fought with her, she sustained some injuries." "That's not what happened." "I didn't touch her." "I am not here to keep you against your will, Sarah." " Then let me out." " I'd like to." "So if you talk to me, then I can help you." "I'll be making the final recommendation about your release, and so if you're cooperative, you can be out of here a lot sooner than the 72-hour hold, okay?" "Can you tell me about this?" "It's a photocopy of a drawing that you brought with you last time you were admitted here." "Dr. Felder notes that it had some significance to the case that you were working at that time." "I think that we should start by talking about that case and the last time you were here." "Thank you." "Thank you all for having me." "It's really good to be here." " Really." " Good to see you, Councilman." "Darren, we're still 7 points down." "Polls aren't budging." "We should be out there courting votes we don't already have." "If we can't beat Adams in ad space, we'll beat him here on the ground." "Okay." "Well, at least one of us should be doing real work." "I'll be at the office." "He'll be all right." "He doesn't like to lose." "Well, you two have that in common." "You're not so comfortable with that yourself." "I'm glad you're doing this." "I think you should finish the way you started." "No backroom deals, no compromises..." "Just being yourself." "Naive?" "Genuine." " Yo, that's out of bounds." " Guard him!" "Blue ball." "Blue ball." "Who thinks I can make a basket?" "Huh?" "Cool." "Yes, I can!" "You got it." "Oh, no, I can't." "Didn't say I'd make it the first time." "No." "Whoo!" "All right, let's play!" "Here we go." "Your file says you're a smoker." "Would you like a cigarette?" "This office does have some perks." "So..." "Tell me about that case." "Isn't it in the file?" "Mm, I'd like to hear it from you." "It was, uh, nonstop working a murder." "Every cop goes through it..." "Not sleeping, not eating." "But they don't all end up here." "I should have taken better care of myself, and I didn't, and that's it." "You were brought here by a Regi Darnell." "Your 10-year-old son, Jack, called her." "He was scared." "You hadn't been out of your bedroom for several days." "Why don't you tell me about this drawing?" "I was called to the scene by patrol." "Hooker had been slashed." "Killed." "Her body was decomposing in her apartment." "The smell alerted the neighbors." "Her 6-year-old son was inside." "They had to break down the front door." "He couldn't reach the chain." "He'd been inside with his mother's body for a week, hiding in a closet waiting for someone to come." "I took him to the kitchen to wait for Child Protective Services to come." "He drew that..." "Again and again." "What was his name?" "The boy." "Adrian." "That must have been horrible..." "For you to see that." "You've probably seen a lot of horrible things." "It must get to you." "What about you?" "Spending your days talking to crazy people." "Hard to not let that in, right?" "Looks like trees and a hill." "I mean, it's..." "It's quite peaceful, actually." "You don't see this image as peaceful?" "Well, he drew it over and over while his mother was rotting away in the other room, so..." "No, I don't." "What happened to that boy?" "To Adrian." "He ended up in the foster system." "I'd expect more than that clumsy cigarette move from you." "But then maybe that's why you ended up here." "Bottom-of-the-barrel psych unit." "It must get to you." "Hey, you need to keep blanketing downtown and Rainier Valley with those things." "It should have been done yesterday!" "What the hell's wrong with you people?" "Go on, get out of here!" "Let's go, guys." "Patty, come here a minute." "Who closed the office last night?" "You were the arresting officer the night of October 5th?" "Yeah." "Dep comm's always riding us." "But I got my ass chewed out for it." "You got a name on the guy you arrested?" "Yeah." "Joseph Nowak." "Yeah, I got a noise complaint a few blocks away." "When I drove past, I see some guy slipping under the fence out of the construction site." " Well, what time was that?" " Around 9:30." "Brought him down to the station, let him make his call." "Next thing I know, I got the project manager calling saying the guy works for him, telling me, "cut him loose."" " You talked to Michael Ames?" " That guy's a prick." "He's lying through his teeth." "Whatever Nowak was doing there, it wasn't construction." "Yeah, he had a bad attitude, smelled like a con." "I ran him through CODIS..." "Nowak works for the mob." "Who's he work for?" "Janek Kovarsky." "All right." "Thanks." "Before your suspension, you were working on the Rosie Larsen murder case." "Pretty high profile." "Lots of stress?" "Why are we talking about this?" "Well, because that's why you're here." "I thought I was here because I was trying to kill myself." "Rosie Larsen was a 17-year-old senior..." "Good student, seemingly nice family..." "Someone killed her, put her in the trunk of a car and pushed it into a lake." "Why do you say "seemingly"?" "You said, "seemingly nice family."" "We all have secrets." "You, me, Larsen family, dead girl." "And that's what you do?" "You find out people's secrets?" "They leave them behind." "Sometimes it's what got them killed." "Sometimes it's just..." "It's as though they're trying to tell you something." "The victim." "Is that what Rosie Larsen was doing?" "She was trying to tell you something." "She was drowned in the trunk of a car." "And you found Adrian in a dark closet." "What does that mean to you, Sarah?" "Nothing." "Then it's because they were children?" "No, I've worked child murders before." "Then why did these two cases mean so much to you?" "I've been cooperative." "I've answered your questions." "Now I'd like to know when I'm getting out of here." "Let's take a break for now." "No." "You said all I had to do was talk and you'd let me go." "Well, I think that you need to stay here" " for a little bit longer." " How much longer?" "Possibly through the end of the week." "You need to rest, eat, get into a normal routine." "You can't keep me here." "I did what you asked." "I answered your questions, and now I need to leave." "It's not a punishment, you being here, Sarah." "You can't keep me here." " I need to get out of here right now." " Sarah..." "You lied to me!" " No, that is not true." " Don't..." "Don't you touch me!" " That is not true." "That is not true." " Don't touch me!" " Don't you touch me!" " Calm down." " What are you doing?" "!" "Let me go!" " Sarah, you need to relax." " You promised me!" " Calm down." "It's gonna be..." "I shouldn't be here!" "I shouldn't be here!" "All right, thank you." "Thank you for your support." "Okay." "Okay, bye." "Looks like we'll be able to buy some of that ad space the mayor hasn't already grabbed up." "And..." "Where did you get this?" "We're so close, Darren." "The next three days will determine this election." "Jamie." "I found it in here." "Gwen closed the office last night." "Alone." "Any idea why she'd be meeting with the mayor?" "Hi, it's Rosie." "I'm not around right now." "But I'll be back soon." "Leave a message." "Bye." "Hi, bean." "It's daddy." "I'm calling 'cause I don't know what else to do because..." "I'm sorry." "It never should have been a secret to you..." "That I chose to be your dad." "It was the best decision I ever made." "You've... always been... the best thing about me." "The very best thing." "Bye." "Visiting hours are almost over." "Hey." "How you holding up, Linden?" "We don't have a lot of time." "What do you got?" "There was a break-in at the waterfront the night of Rosie's death." "Janek Kovarsky's guy." "He gets arrested." "Ames doesn't press charges." "An hour later, we got Ames canceling his weekend plans and heading to the casino to meet with Chief Jackson, most likely." "And someone from city hall." "I saw a white key card." "So they were planning something at the waterfront, and it went wrong when Kovarsky's guy got arrested." "We're close, Linden." "Hey." "Hey, look at me." "I saw a white key card from city hall." "What'd they do to you?" "Please, don't leave me here." "I'm gonna get you out of here." "Sir, it's time." "Just hang tight for a couple of hours." "I'm not leaving you in here." "You hear?" "I'm not leaving you here." "Joseph Nowak?" "Hey!" "Yeah?" "Where you running, fool?" "Huh?" "Aah!" "Huh?" "What were you doing at the waterfront the night of October 5th?" "Why didn't Ames press charges?" "Huh?" "!" "You can't shoot me." "You're a cop." "Tell me what you were doing for Ames that night at the waterfront." "Get out of my car." "The night Rosie Larsen was killed, there was a break-in at the waterfront." "All our players are involved." "Janek Kovarsky's thug breaks into the mayor's construction site." "Project manager Michael Ames chose not to press charges." "So what?" "Here's the best part." "I spoke to Janek's boy." "Says he was given an order that night to break in and bury some Indian bones." "So Janek's boy, he was supposed to be protected." "He was gonna get in, bury the bones, get out, inside job." "Except our boys at the 9th precinct, they weren't in on it." "They arrested him." "I'm guessing our players get scared their boy's gonna talk." "They head out to the casino to meet with Nicole Jackson." "Rosie Larsen overhears the conversation." "Gets herself killed." "Lieu..." "This goes all the way to the top." "This goes all the way to city hall." "Why would the mayor sabotage his own project?" "It's the cornerstone of his campaign." "And why would Ames sabotage the biggest construction project he's had in years?" "Unless they both knew another payday'd come..." "And it'd be bigger." "You're on the wrong side Lieutenant." "And they're using you." "I need her psychiatrist's name and number." "You've got it." "It's in her file." "Let's solve this case." "Hey." "Have you seen that video?" "Uh, what video?" "My in-box is flooded with this thing." "It's from the event this morning." "It's you playing basketball with those kids." "It's gone viral." "...Opportunity for healing." "See, I-I find that all adversity opens the past." "Is this your work or Jamie's?" "Neither." "Someone in the crowd took it on a phone and put it on the internet." "These people love you, Darren." "They're rooting for you." "But by facing it..." "What's wrong?" "This is good for us." "An intern found it." "In here." "You closed the office last night." "I asked him to meet me here." "I thought..." "I hoped he would back off because of what I had on him." "Go ahead." "The summer before high school, he was working for my father." "He was over at the house all the time." "He'd ask me questions." "He seemed interested in me." "G" " Gwen, you don't have to tell me anything, you don't..." "One night we were in the living room alone." "My dad was in the kitchen." "And he leaned over, and he..." "That was my first kiss." "I was 14 years old." "I want this so badly for you, Darren." "Gwen..." "I don't get it." "How am I so bad at this game?" "Hi, dad." "You want some food?" "Everybody close your eyes." "It's a surprise." "Close your eyes." "All right." "Open them." "Sweet!" "Is it ours?" "Yeah." "It's all yours." "Just don't let him make a mess in the house." " Plus you got to feed him." "You got to walk him." " This is awesome." "He only has one eye." "Maybe it's a pirate dog." " He's huge!" " Oh, yeah." " What should we name him?" " You can take care of him, bud, right?" "Yeah." "Yeah, awesome." "Oh, my God!" "Whoa!" " Here we go!" " Gross!" "Go get paper towels." "Quick, quick." "Did you press a button?" " No." " Hurry." "Toss them to me." " He's so slobbery." " Here." "Oh, my gosh." " It's right there." "Right there." " Hey, careful when you tickle him, he don't shit on the carpet, all right?" "Oh!" " I can't believe we got a dog." " Yeah." "How Rosie's body was found..." "It doesn't make sense." "Her killer chased her through the woods for hours." "He beat her." "It takes..." "Determination..." "Hate to do that." "But she was alive when she went in the water." "The killer didn't want to see her eyes when she finally died." "Why?" "Well, how does that relate to Adrian's mother's murder, Sarah?" "I don't know." "It doesn't." "There's something meaningful about these two cases, so..." "What is it?" "My old partner, he was... the primary." "He was convinced the dad was the doer." "Said... dad probably panicked and left through the fire-escape window." "Neighbors saw him in the building 20 minutes before time of death..." "Heard an argument, said they were always fighting." "We put him away." "So you caught the killer in Adrian's case." "The dad lived in that apartment." "He knew it was a shit hole." "No one ever called the cops on him." "So why... would he leave through a window?" "Risk attracting attention on the street." "Why not... walk right out the front door?" "So you don't think the father did it." "No." "I don't." "Did your partner feel the same way, that you'd arrested the wrong man?" "He was the primary, more senior than me." "The department was satisfied, and I gave up trying to convince them at some point." "And do you feel guilty about that?" "I listened to them." "I should have..." "I should have listened to him." "He was trying to tell me something." "I should have listened." "To who?" "To Adrian?" "Is that why you brought the drawing with you last time, Sarah?" "He was trying to tell you something with it?" "Is that why you've continued to investigate the Rosie Larsen murder, even on suspension?" "They'll bury this case." "They'll make it go away." "Sarah... maybe... what they went through is something you relate to." "Have you ever thought about that?" "What?" "I told you why it matters." "Let's talk about your mother." "About when she abandoned you." "You sit there in that chair across from me thinking you'll get to the heart of it." "That you can help me, that you can save me." "It must feel good thinking that." "Justifying your little life with that." "Is that how you feel, Sarah?" "Hmm?" "With your victims?" "No, they're dead." "They don't need saving anymore." "She left you..." "in the apartment... alone..." "When you were 5 years old." "Do you remember that?" "No." "Surely you must have some memories." "The lights had been turned off." "She hadn't paid the bill." "That's all I remember." "CPS found you the next morning after she left." "So you spent the night in that place alone?" "That was a long time ago." "I'm fine now." "Your son is gone." "You were supposed to be married a few days ago." "You've lost your job." "Really?" "Whatever you want me to say, I'll say it." "Just please let me go." "Then you spent the night alone in the dark..." "Excuse me, Dr. Kerry?" "Give us a second, please." "Sarah's being officially released." "She'll be..." "out in a minute." "Sarah, go ahead." "What were you going to say?" "She know I'm here?" "No." "I'll help get her out, but I can't be involved anymore." "She's your responsibility now." "I'm Dr. Felder." "I faxed over the paperwork to release Sarah Linden into my care." "Yes, of course." "Here you go." "Sign here, please." "Thank you." "Nice work on the Richmond video." "The room's been taken care of." "They won't find anything."

"Senators, consider the opportunities for the Empire." "At last the destinies of the planets Romulus and Remus will be united." "Shinzon of Remus offers us a chance to make ourselves stronger than ever." "It would be madness to reject it." "I beg you not to let prejudice or politics interfere with this alliance." "By joining Shinzon's forces with ours, not even the Federation" " will be able to stand in our way..." " Enough!" "The decision is made." "The military does not dictate policy on Romulus." "The Senate has considered Shinzon's proposal and rejected it." "He and his followers will be met with force and sent back to their black rock!" " Do I make myself clear?" " Yes, sir." "Praetor, I have an appointment with the Tholian ambassador." "Of course." "Senators, are there any others who wish to speak?" "Then I call for a vote on the motion to open trade negotiations with Celes II." "The Reman mines have not been filling their quotas." "Consider the trade committee's findings." "As much as we don't want..." "Someone alert security!" "Bring back Senator Tal'Aura!" "Duty." "A starship captain's life is filled with solemn duty." "I have commanded in battle, negotiated peace between implacable enemies." "I have represented the Federation in first contact with 27 alien species." "But none of this compares with my solemn duty today as best man." "Now, on an occasion such as this, it is expected that I be gracious and fulsome in my praise on the wonders of this blessed union." "But have the two of you considered what you are doing to me?" "You're happy, but what about my needs?" "This is all a damned inconvenience." "While you're settling in on the Titan," "I will be training my new first officer." "You know him." "He's a tyrannical martinet who will never, ever allow me to go on away missions!" "That is the regulation, sir." "Starfleet Code, section 12..." " Data." " Sir?" " Shut up." " Yes, sir." "15 years I've been waiting to say that." "No, seriously, Will, Deanna, there's still time to reconsider." "Yes?" " No." " No?" "Very well, then." "Will Riker, you have been my trusted right arm for 15 years." "You have kept my course true and steady." "Deanna Troi, you have been my guide and my conscience." "You have helped me recognize the better parts of myself." "You are my family." "In maritime tradition I wish you both clear horizons." "My good friends, make it so." "The bride and groom!" "You ever think about marrying again?" "No, 23 was my limit." "Worf?" " Are you all right?" " Romulan ale should be illegal." "It is." " A lovely toast." " It was from the heart." "Don't worry." "I'll brief your new counsellor on everything she has to know." "Like hell you are!" "You already know too much about me." "I take it there'll be no speeches during the ceremony on Betazed?" "No, no speeches and no clothes." "Ladies and gentlemen and invited transgendered species, in Terran and Betazoid conjugal rites, I've discovered it is traditional to present the happy couple with a gift." "Given Commander Riker's affection for archaic musical forms," "I have elected to present the following as my gift, in honour of their conjugation." "Never saw the sun shining so bright" "Never saw things going so right" "Noticing the days hurrying by" "When you're in love, my, how they fly!" " Blue skies, smiling at me" " Irving Berlin!" "Nothing but blue skies do I see..." "It's tradition, Worf." " You should appreciate that." " I will not do it!" " Won't do what, Mr Worf?" " Captain, I think it inappropriate for a Starfleet officer to appear... naked." "Come, a strapping fellow like you?" "What can you be afraid of?" "I'm picking up an odd electromagnetic signature from the Kolarin system." " What sort of signature?" " Positronic." "It's very faint but I've isolated it to the third planet in the Kolarin system." " What do we know?" " Uncharted." " We'll have to get closer for more detail." " Theories?" "Positronic signatures are only known to emanate from androids." "It is logical to theorise there is an android on Kolarus III." "Just what I feared." "Captain?" "Diverting there takes us close to the Romulan Neutral Zone." "It's still well on our side." "I think it's worth a look." "Don't worry, Number One." " We'll have you to Betazed in time." " Thank you, sir." "Where we will all honour the Betazoid tradition." "Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll be in the gym." "Mr Branson, lay in a course for the Kolarin system, warp five." "What do you think, Data?" "A long-lost relative?" "I read six distinct positronic signatures, spread out over a few kilometres." " What about the population?" " Isolated pockets of humanoids." "It appears to be a pre-warp civilization in early industrial development." "I wouldn't recommend the transporter." "That ion storm doesn't look neighbourly." " It could head our way without warning." " Understood." " Data, Mr Worf, you're with me." " I needn't remind you..." "I appreciate your concern, Number One, but I've been itching to try the Argo." "I'll bet." "Captain's prerogative." "There's no foreseeable danger." "And your wife wouldn't forgive me if anything happened to you." "You have the bridge..." "Mr Troi." "I am puzzled by the human predilection for piloting vehicles at unsafe velocities." "Over that rise, sir, half a kilometre." "The electromagnetic field is disrupting my tricorder." " We're within metres of the signal." " Fan out." "Let's search around." " It appears to be a robotic arm." " Very astute." "Bring it to the vehicle." "This doesn't feel right." "The final signature is 100 metres north." " It's you." " The resemblance is striking." "Fascinating." "To the vehicle!" "I think it's time to try some unsafe velocities." "Why do you have a shiny head?" " Conversation isn't appropriate." " Why?" " The captain has to concentrate." " Why?" " Because..." " Data!" "Sorry, sir." "Have I said something wrong?" "You know, all things considered, Data, I think you have nicer eyes." "Our eyes are identical, Doctor." " So what have we got, Geordi?" " Well his mechanics are like Data's, with less positronic development." "The neural pathways aren't as sophisticated." "I'd say he's a prototype." "Something Dr Soong created prior to Data." " Do you have a name, sir?" " I am..." "B-4." "B-4?" "Dr Soong's penchant for whimsical names has no end." "How did you come to be where we found you?" " I do not know." " Do you remember anything of your life?" "No." "Why does the tall man have a furry face?" "Number One, keep me informed, and Geordi, reassemble him." " B-4, do you know who I am?" " You are me." "No." "My name is Data." "I am your brother." "Tea, Earl Grey, hot." "An Alpha Priority communication from Starfleet Command for you, Captain." "Acknowledged." "Admiral Janeway, good to see you." "Jean-Luc." "How would you like a trip to Romulus?" " With or without the fleet?" " A diplomatic mission." "We're invited, believe it or not." "There's been an internal political shake up." "The new Praetor, Shinzon, has requested a Federation envoy." " New Praetor?" " Here's more." "He's Reman." "Believe me, we don't understand it either." "You're the closest ship." "Go and hear what he has to say." "Get the lay of the land." "An unstable Empire could mean trouble for the quadrant." " Understood." " We're sending you all our intelligence." "But it's not much." "I don't need to tell you to watch your back." " Hardly." " The Son'a, the Borg, the Romulans..." "you get all the easy assignments." " Just lucky, Admiral." " Let's hope it holds." "Janeway out." "Helmsman, lay in a new course." "Take us to Romulus." "Warp eight." "Course laid in." " Romulus?" " The Opal Sea will have to wait." "Engage." "As you can see, one side of Remus always faces the sun." "Due to the extreme temperatures on that half, the Remans live on the dark side." "Little is known of the Reman home world, although scans have revealed dilithium mining and heavy weapons construction." "The Remans themselves are considered an undesirable caste in the Empire." "They're said to be formidable warriors." "In the Dominion War, Reman troops were used as assault forces." " Cannon fodder." " How did a Reman get to be Praetor?" " I don't get it." " Romulan collaborators?" " Coup d'état?" " The Praetor's power is their fleet." "They must have been behind Shinzon." "What have we learned about Shinzon?" "Only a part of his military record." "He is young and a capable commander." "He won 12 major engagements in the war." " Beyond that, we know nothing." " Well, we're sailing into the unknown." "Keep at it." "Give me anything you can." "Dismissed." "I still can't believe the captain went along with a memory download." "He agrees that the B-4 probably has the same self-actualization parameters as myself." "If my memory engrams are successfully integrated into his positronic matrix," " he should have all my abilities." " He'd have all your memories as well." " You feel comfortable with that?" " I feel nothing, Geordi." "With my memory engrams, he will be able to be a more complete individual." " An individual more like you, you mean?" " Yes." "Maybe he's not supposed to be like you." "Maybe he's supposed to be as he is." "That might be so, but he should have the opportunity to explore his potential." "OK, we're done." " B-4, do you know where you are?" " I am in a room with lights." "Remember our father?" " Our father?" " Yes, Dr Soong." " No." " Do you know the name of the captain?" "No." "Data, he's assimilating a lot of programming." "He's a lot less sophisticated than you." "We don't know if his matrix will be able to adapt." "We need to give him time." "Geordi, what purpose does this serve?" " What?" " This." "A redundant memory port." "Maybe the provisional storage is in case his neural pathways overload." "Mind if I keep him here?" "Run a few diagnostics?" "I do not mind." " Data!" " No." "Remain with Commander La Forge." "He will try to help you." "Captain's log:" "Stardate 56844.9." "The Enterprise has arrived at Romulus and waits at the designated coordinates." "All our hails have gone unanswered." "We've been waiting for 17 hours." " Counsellor?" " They're out there, sir." " Captain!" "Recommend we raise shields." " Not yet, Mr Worf." "With due respect to diplomatic protocol, the Federation Council isn't here." " We are." " Patience." "Diplomacy is very exacting." " We will wait." " Captain..." " Shields!" " No!" " Captain..." " Tactical!" "52 disruptor banks, 27 photon torpedo bays, primary and secondary shields." "She's a predator." "We're being hailed." "On screen." "Enterprise, we are the Reman war bird, Scimitar." " Praetor Shinzon, I'm pleased to..." " I am not Shinzon." "I am his viceroy." "We are sending transport coordinates." " Not very chatty." " Away Team, transporter room four." "I hope you'll forgive the darkness." "We are not comfortable in the light." " Praetor Shinzon?" " Captain Picard." "Jean-Luc Picard." "I'd always imagined you taller." "Isn't that odd?" "You may scan me without subterfuge, Commander Data." " You are not as we imagined you." " No?" "You're human." "Why have you asked us to come here?" "Praetor?" " I've never met a human woman before." " I'm only half human." "Deanna Troi, of Betazed." "Empathic and telepathic abilities, ship's counsellor." "All this I knew." "But I never knew you were so beautiful." "You're quite familiar with our personnel." "I am, Commander Riker." "May I touch your hair?" "We came to Romulus on a matter we were assured was of great importance." "If you have anything to say to us as Federation representatives, do it now." "Yes, I'm sorry, Captain." "There is so much we need to talk about." " I would be interested to know what." " Unity, Captain!" "Tearing down the walls between us to recognize that we are one." "I'm talking of the thing that makes us the same." "Peace." "We want peace." "You're thinking this all sounds too good to be true, but that the chance for peace is too promising to ignore." "I'm right?" " Yes." " Perhaps it's time to add illumination." "Computer, raise the lighting four levels." "When I was young I had an odd disease." "I developed a hyper-sensitivity to sound." "Even a whisper caused me agony." "No one could do anything." "Finally I was taken to a doctor with experience of Terran illnesses." "And he diagnosed Shalaft's Syndrome..." "Do you know of it, Captain?" "Yes." "Then you know it's a very rare syndrome." "Genetic." "Apparently, all the male members of a family have it." "Eventually I was treated and now I can hear as well as you can, Captain." "I can see as well as you can." "I can feel everything you feel." "In fact, I feel exactly what you feel." "Don't I, Jean-Luc?" "Come to dinner tomorrow on Romulus." "Just the two of us." "Or should I say, just the one of us?" "I think you'll be wanting this." "Until tomorrow then, Captain." "We have much to discuss." "Computer, return lighting to previous level." "There's no doubt." "Right down to your strain of Shalaft's Syndrome." "He's a clone." "They probably used a hair follicle or skin cell." " Why?" " I intend to find out, Number One." "Inform Starfleet of the situation." "I need to know where the hell he came from." "Counsellor." "We supported you, Shinzon, when you assassinated the Senate." "You told us the timing was perfect to attack the Federation." "Why the delay?" "You don't have to understand." "Why bring the Enterprise here?" " I have a purpose." " Then enlighten us." "Silence, Romulan!" "You must learn patience, Commander." "Spend 18 hours every day under the lash of a Romulan guard and you'll soon understand patience." "Now go." "Commander Donatra." "Remain." "There's a word I want you to consider." "Allegiance." "It's something I demand from those who serve me." " Do I serve you?" " Yes..." "And I think faithfully." "Commander Suran, on the other hand, gives me pause." "Here's another word, Praetor." "Trust." "Do you trust me?" "How far does that trust extend?" "How deep does it go?" "What must a commander do to prove herself faithful?" "What must a woman do?" "You are not a woman." "You are a Romulan." "Serve me faithfully and you will be rewarded." "Keep those lovely eyes on Commander Suran." "And at the first sign of treachery..." "Dispose of him." "Then you will have proven yourself." "Now go." "Commander!" "If you ever touch me again I'll kill you." "The Romulans had gained possession of your DNA and created me." "And when I was ready, they were going to replace you with me." "Put a Romulan agent at the heart of Starfleet." "It was a bold plan." " What happened?" " As happens frequently on Romulus, a new government came to power and abandoned the plan." "They were afraid I'd be discovered and that it would lead to war." " Not quite the face you remember." " Not quite." "A lifetime of violence will do that." "They broke my nose, my jaw." "But so much is the same." "The eyes." " Surely you recognize the eyes?" " Yes." "Our eyes reflect our lives, don't they?" "And yours are so confident." " So I'm not as tall as you expected?" " I'd always hoped I might hit two metres." "As had I." "How did you end up on Remus?" "They sent me there to die." "How could a mere human survive the dilithium mines?" "Not that it mattered, as I was no longer part of their plans against the Federation." "In those terrible depths lived only the damned." "Along with the Reman slaves," "I was condemned to unceasing labour and starvation under the brutal heel of the Romulan guards." "Only the strongest had any hope of survival." "I was only a child when they took me." "I didn't see the sun or the stars for ten years." "The only thing the Romulan guards hated more than the Remans was me." "But one man took pity on me, the man that became my viceroy and protected me from the guards' cruelty." "He taught me how to survive." "And in that dark place, where there was nothing of myself," "I found my Reman brothers." "They showed me the only kindness I've ever known." " This is all to liberate the Remans?" " The single thought behind all I've done." "From secretly building the Scimitar to assembling my army." "Finally coming to Romulus, in force." "I knew they'd never give us freedom." " I would have to take it!" " But how many Romulans died for it?" "Too many." "But finally the Empire is realizing that there is a better way." "And that way is peace." " You don't trust me." " I have no reason to." "You have every reason." "If you had lived my life, and experienced the suffering of my people, you'd be standing where I am." "If you'd lived mine, you'd understand my responsibility to the Federation." "I cannot allow my personal feelings to unduly influence my decisions." "All I have are my personal feelings!" "I want to know what being human means." "The Remans gave me a future." " You can tell me about my past." " I can tell you about mine." " Were we Picards always warriors?" " I think of myself as an explorer." "Well, were we always explorers?" "I was the first Picard to leave our system." "It caused quite a stir in the family, but I'd spent my youth..." "Looking at the stars, dreaming about what was up there, about..." "New worlds." "I'm trying to believe you." "If there is one ideal the Federation holds most dear, it is that all men, all races, can be united." "What better example?" "A Starfleet captain standing in the Romulan Senate." "Nothing would make me more proud than to take your hand in friendship." "In time." "When trust has been earned." " Sir, the main computer was accessed." " Source?" "It'll take time to figure out." "The data stream was re-routed all over the ship." " What was accessed?" " That's what I can't figure out." "It's mostly basic stellar cartography:" "Star charts, protocols, colony uplinks." " It's not even restricted material." " We must still learn the source." "Captain, there's something else." "I was reviewing the sensor logs." "Look!" "When the Scimitar de-cloaked, there was a spike in the tertiary EM band." "You're not going to believe this." "It's Thalaron." " I thought Thalaron radiation was theory." " That's why initial scans missed it." "He's got it." "Research was banned in the Federation because Thalaron is biogenic." "It can consume organic material at the subatomic level." "I can't overestimate the danger of Thalaron radiation." "A microscopic amount could kill all of us in seconds." "Understood." "I want to know what he has and how we can neutralize any threat." "I need options." "This was a mistake." "We're wasting time." "My time." "And I'll spend it how I choose." "Do not forget our mission, Shinzon." "We must act." "Now!" "We'll return to the Scimitar." "I was merely curious about him." "Come." "Come in." "Remember him?" " He was a bit cocky as I recall." " He was a damned fool." "Selfish." "Ambitious." "Very much in need of seasoning." "He turned out all right." "I really wanted to believe Shinzon." "But this Thalaron radiation just can't be explained away." "Whatever he's after, it isn't peace." "Is he very much the way you were?" "Oh, yes." " Data to Captain Picard." " Go ahead." "We have identified the source of the unauthorized computer access." "We have found a tactical advantage." "On my way." "Will?" "As ship's counsellor, I recommend you get some sleep." "Some honeymoon!" "Come to bed." "Imzadi." "Imzadi." "He can never know you as I can." "He can never touch you as I can." " This isn't real!" " Feel my lips." "I'm with you, Imzadi." "I'll always be with you now." " This isn't real!" " What is it?" " No!" " Deanna?" " Deanna!" " No!" "The bond has been broken." "Find her again." "We've received the transponder signal." "It's accelerating." "You have no more time for games." "Have the doctors prepare." "Transport." "Begin the download." "Tea, hot." "Aside from elevated levels of adrenalin and serotonin, you're perfectly normal." "Deanna, can you describe it?" "It was..." "It was a violation." "Shinzon's viceroy seems able to reach into my thoughts." "I'm a liability." "I request to be relieved." "Permission denied." "If you can endure more of these assaults, I need you." "Now more than ever." "The Enterprise is far from Federation space..." "Shields up!" "Hello." "Why am I here?" "Why do this?" "I was lonely." " What are you going to do?" " I need a blood sample." "What is it your Borg friends say?" "Resistance is futile." "Oh, yes, the android." " The bait you couldn't refuse." " All of this to capture me?" "Don't be so vain." "After we found it, we had to make a few modifications." "An extra memory port, a hidden transponder." "I've now gained access to Starfleet's communications protocol." "I now know the exact location of your entire fleet." " You may go." " Where?" "Out of my sight." " What is all this about?" " It's about destiny!" " About a Reman outcast..." " You're not Reman!" "And I'm not quite human!" "So what am I?" "My life is meaningless as long as you're still alive." "What am I while you exist?" "A shadow?" "An echo?" "If your issues are with me, then deal with me." "This has nothing to do with my ship or the Federation!" "But it does." "We will no longer bow before anyone as slaves." "Not the Romulans and not your mighty Federation." "We are a race bred for war." "And conquest." "You're ready to plunge the quadrant into war to satisfy your personal demons?" "It's amazing how little you know yourself." " I'm incapable of such an act!" " You are me!" "The same noble Picard blood runs through our veins." "Had you lived my life, you'd be doing exactly as I am!" "So look in the mirror." "See yourself." "Consider that, Captain." "I can think of no greater torment for you." "Shinzon..." "I'm a mirror for you as well." "Not for long, Captain." "I'm afraid you won't survive to witness the victory of the echo over the voice." "His cloak is perfect." "No tachyon emissions, no residual antiprotons." "Keep at it, Geordi." "Find a way in." "Praetor Shinzon needs the prisoner." " About time, Data." " My mission succeeded." "I have located the radiation source." "This entire ship is a Thalaron generator." "The activation matrix is on the bridge." "It's a weapon, then..." "And the download?" "Shinzon believes he has our communication protocols." "They'll give him inaccurate locations for all Starfleet vessels." " Good work." " Sir..." "Geordi fitted the prototype for the Emergency Transport Unit." "Use this, sir, to return to the Enterprise." " It'll only work for one of us." " Yes, sir." "We'll find a way off together." "It is time for the procedure." "Move, puny human animal!" "A bit less florid, Data." "Kill him!" "This way, sir." "There is a shuttle bay 94 metres from our current position." " There it is, sir!" " Go!" "It has encrypted security." "Alacrity would be appreciated!" "Reman is a complex language with pictographs as verb roots..." "That's fascinating, Data, but we really need that door open!" "According to the ship's manifest, they are Scorpion-class attack fliers." " Data, what do you imagine this is?" " Port thruster." "Would you like me to drive, sir?" " Can you open the shuttle bay doors?" " Negative." "A force field is now in place." "Well, then... only one way to go." " Is this wise, sir?" " We're about to find out." " Power up the disruptors." " Ready, Captain." "Fire!" "Tractor beam!" "Lock on transporter!" "I have them." " This has gone far enough!" " I thought we'd discussed patience." "Mine is waning." "We supported you as you promised action." "Yet you delay." "The Enterprise is immaterial." "They won't make it out of the Neutral Zone." "In two days, the Federation will be crippled beyond repair." "Satisfied?" " For the moment." " And when I return you and I shall have a little talk about showing proper respect!" "What's happening to his face?" "Commander, a moment." "Are you prepared to have your hands drenched in blood?" "He's not planning to defeat Earth." "He's planning its annihilation." "His sins will mark us all, for generations." "The more I studied his DNA, the more confusing it got." "I drew one conclusion." "Shinzon was created with temporal RNA sequencing so that his aging process could be accelerated to reach your age more quickly and skip 30 years of his life." "But the sequencing wasn't activated, so his cellular structure is decaying." " He's dying." " Dying?" " Can anything be done for him?" " Only a complete transfusion from the only donor with compatible DNA..." "You." " How long does he have?" " I can't say for sure." "But the rate of decay is accelerating." "Then he'll come for me." " Brother, I cannot move." " No." "I have only activated your cognitive and communications subroutines." " Why?" " Because you are dangerous." "Why?" "You were programmed to gather information to use against this ship." "I do not understand." "I know." "Do you know anything about Shinzon's plans against the Federation?" " No." " Or the tactical abilities of his ship?" "No." "Can I move now?" "No." " What are you doing?" " I must deactivate you." " For how long?" " Indefinitely." "How long is that?" "A long time, brother." "It's called a cascading biogenic pulse." "Thalaron's properties allow the energy beam to expand almost without limit." "Depending on its radiant intensity, it could encompass a ship." "Or a planet." "He'd only have built such a weapon for one reason." "He's going after Earth." " How can you be certain?" " I know how he thinks." "Destroy humanity, you cripple the Federation." " The Romulans invade." " No way of penetrating his cloak?" "No." "He could be close to every Starfleet ship and they'd never know." "We do have one advantage." "He needs your blood to live." " He might come after you first." " I'm counting on it." "We've been ordered to sector 10-45 to meet our fleet." " Strength in numbers." " So we hope." "He must not be allowed to use that weapon." "All other concerns are secondary." "Understand?" "Yes, sir." "All hands, battle stations." "Initiate the force field!" "Captain's personal log." "We're heading for Federation space at maximum warp." "The crew has responded with the dedication I've come to expect." "Like a thousand other commanders on other battlefields, I wait for the dawn." "How long?" "A matter of hours..." "We must begin the procedure now." "How long until we reach the Rift?" "Seven minutes." "Data, what's our current position?" "How soon until we reach the fleet?" "At our current velocity, we will arrive at sector 10-45 in 40 minutes." ""For now we see but through a glass darkly."" " Sir?" " He said he's a mirror." " Of you, sir?" " Yes." "I do not agree." "Although you share the same genetic structure, your life has created an individual." "If I had lived his life, is it possible that I would have rejected my humanity?" "B-4 is identical to me, although his neural pathways are not as advanced." "Even if they were, he would not be me." " How can you be sure?" " I aspire, sir." "To be better than I am." "B-4 does not." "Nor does Shinzon." "We are passing through the Bassen Rift." "The projection will return." "It's interfering with our uplink?" "The Rift affects all long-range..." "Evasive man oeuvres!" "Target weapons systems and shields." "I don't want the Enterprise destroyed." "Can you learn to see in the dark?" " Report." " He's cloaked." "We can't get a lock." "He hit our warp drive." "We're on impulse." "Full phaser spread, zero elevation!" "All banks on my mark!" "Scan for shield impacts!" "Stand by torpedoes!" "Fire!" "You're too slow, old man." "Attack pattern Shinzon Theta." " We are losing dorsal shields!" " Full to port!" "Fire all ventral phasers!" "Minimal damage to the Scimitar." "Defensive pattern Kirk Epsilon." "Shields online." "Already on it." " Counsellor Troi, report to the bridge." " Captain, we are being hailed." "On screen." "Captain Picard, will you join me in your ready room?" "You can't trace my holographic emitters, Captain." "And you can't contact Starfleet." "It's just the two of us now, Jean-Luc." " As it should be." " Why are you here?" "To accept your surrender." "I can clearly destroy you at any time." "Lower your shields and allow me to transport you to my ship." "And the Enterprise?" "I have little interest in your quaint vessel, Captain." "Look at me." "Your heart, your hands, your eyes are the same as mine." "The blood within you, the raw material is the same." " We have the same potential." " That's the past..." "It can be the future." "Buried deep within you, beneath the years of pain and anger, there is something never nurtured:" "The potential to make yourself a better man." "That is what it is to be human:" "To make yourself more than you are." "Oh, yes, I know you." "Once, you looked at the stars and dreamed of what might be." "Childish dreams, Captain." "Lost in the dilithium mines of Remus." "I am what you see now." "I see more." "I see what you could be." "The man who is Shinzon and Picard could never annihilate an entire planet!" " He's better than that!" " He's what his life has made him." "And what will you do with that life?" "Waste it in a blaze of hatred?" " There is a better way." " It's too late!" "Never!" "Make the right choice now!" " I can't fight what I am!" " Yes, you can!" "I'll show you my true nature." "Our nature." "And as Earth dies, remember I will always be Shinzon of Remus!" "My voice shall echo through time long after yours has faded to a dim memory!" "Two ships de-cloaking, sir!" "Romulan!" "Captain!" "It gets worse." " We are being hailed." " On screen." "Captain Picard, Commander Donatra of the war bird Valdore." "Might we be of assistance?" "Assistance?" "This is a matter of internal security." "We regret you've become involved." "When this is over, I owe you a drink." "Romulan ale, Captain." "Let's get to work." "You heard the lady." "Let's go to work!" "Coordinate our attack with the Valdore." " Triangulate fire on shield impacts." " Aye." " Aft shields at 40%." " Keep our bow on the Scimitar." " Power to forward shields." " Aye." "Target the war bird." "All forward disruptor banks." " Forward shields at 10%!" " Bring us about!" "Drop cloak on aft port quadrant." "Prepare for emergency stop." " What?" " You heard me!" "He's losing his cloak!" "Stand by all forward disruptor banks!" " She's almost on us!" " Not yet." " Praetor!" " Full stop!" "Fire!" "Restore aft cloak." "Full about." "That drink will have to wait." " You have life support?" " For the moment." " But we're crippled." " Understood." "Losing structural integrity on decks 12 to 17, sections 4 to 10." "Force fields holding." "Evacuate those decks." "Re-route power to shields." "Captain, I may have a way to find them." "Prepare for a lateral run." "All starboard disruptors." "What is it?" "She's here!" "He's resisting me." " No!" " Remember me?" "Now!" "Fire!" "Bring me Picard!" "You!" "Get the cloak back!" "Target shield coordinates Beta-3." "All disruptors." "Fire!" "Ventral shielding lost on deck 29!" "Compensate!" " Intruder alert!" " Number One." " Let's go!" " Security detail to deck 29!" " The Romulans fought with honour." " Yes, they did, Mr Worf." "Cover me!" "Medics!" "Report!" "We have no photon torpedoes." "Phaser banks down to 4%." "If we targeted all phasers in a pattern?" "Scimitar shields are still at 70%." "It would make no difference, Captain." "What's he doing?" "He wants to look me in the eye." "We've got him!" "He thinks he knows what I'm going to do." "Divert all power to the engines." "Even from life support." "Give me it all." " Ready, Captain." " We are being hailed." "Deanna, stand by." "Open a channel." " I hope you're still alive, Jean-Luc." " Oh, yes, I am." "Don't you think it's time to surrender?" "Why should the rest of your crew die?" "Shinzon, I don't think I ever told you about my first Academy evaluation." "In particular, I was thought to be extremely... over-confident." "As much as I enjoy listening to you talk, I really think..." "On my mark, Deanna!" "All hands, brace for impact!" "Engage!" "Hard to port!" "Divert all power to the engines." "Full reverse!" "Reconfiguring now." "Computer, stand by auto-destruct sequence Omega." "Voice pattern Jean-Luc Picard." "Authorization Alpha-Alpha-3-0-5." "Auto-destruct is offline." "Disruptors are not functional, sir." "Deploy the weapon." "Kill everything on that ship." "Then set a course for Earth." "We must complete our mission." "Matrix initiated." "Sequencing procedure for Thalaron radiation transfer activated." "Some ideals are worth dying for, aren't they, Jean-Luc?" "Thalaron intermix procedure initiated." "Deployment of targeting arms commencing." "How long until he can fire?" "Targeting should take seven minutes." "When the arms are fully deployed the matrix on the bridge will relay the Thalaron radiation to the firing points." "No one on the Enterprise will survive." " How can he?" "He'll kill you." " It's not about me any more." " Prepare a site-to-site transport." " I don't think..." " That's an order!" " Let me go." "I have to do this..." "You have the bridge." "Put some distance between you and the Scimitar." "Now, Mr La Forge." "Aye, sir." "That's it!" "Transporters down." "Counsellor Troi, assume command." "Geordi, come with me." "Thalaron intermix levels 30%." "Four minutes to firing sequence." "Thalaron intermix level 50%." "Three minutes to firing." "Thalaron intermix level 60%." "Two minutes to firing sequence." "Thalaron intermix level 80%." "I'm glad we're together now." "Our destiny is complete." "One minute to firing." "Thalaron intermix level completed." "30 seconds to firing sequence." " Goodbye." " Ten nine... eight... seven six... five four... three..." "Data?" "Captain!" "It's Data." " We're being hailed." " On screen." "Open a channel." "This is Commander Donatra." "We're dispatching medics and supplies." "Thank you." "You've earned a friend in the Romulan Empire today." "I hope the first of many." "Valdore out." "Geordi... prepare the shuttle bay for arrivals." "They don't know our procedures." " Just open the doors." " I'll take care of it." "You have the bridge, Number One." "Thank you." "To absent friends." "To family." "First time I saw Data, he was leaning against a tree in the holodeck trying to whistle." "Funniest thing I ever saw." "No matter what he did, he couldn't get the tune right." "What was that song?" "Can't remember the song." "Come." " Will." " Permission to disembark, sir." "Granted." "So, where's the Titan off to?" "The Neutral Zone." "We're heading up the new task force." "The Romulans are interested in talking." "I can't think of a better man for the job." "If I may, some advice about your first command?" "Anything." "When your first officer insists you can't go on away missions..." "Ignore him." "I intend to." "Serving with you has been an honour." "The honour was mine, Captain." "I don't know if this has made sense." "I wanted you to know the man he was." "In his quest to be more like us he helped us to see what it means to be human." "My... brother was not human." "No, he wasn't." "But his wonder, his curiosity about every facet of human nature allowed us to see the best of ourselves." "He evolved." "He embraced change because he always wanted to be better than he was." "I... do not understand." "Well, I hope some day you will." "Captain, the warp engines are ready." "Coming." "Inform Commander La Forge." "We'll talk later." "Never saw the sun..." "Never saw the sun..." "Never saw the sun..." " Shining so bright" " Shining so bright" "Never saw things..." "Going so right." "Going so right" "Senators, consider the opportunities for the Empire." "At last the destinies of the planets Romulus and Remus will be united." "Shinzon of Remus offers us a chance to make ourselves stronger than ever." "It would be madness to reject it." "I beg you not to let prejudice or politics interfere with this alliance." "By joining Shinzon's forces with ours, not even the Federation" " will be able to stand in our way..." " Enough!" "The decision is made." "The military does not dictate policy on Romulus." "The Senate has considered Shinzon's proposal and rejected it." "He and his followers will be met with force and sent back to their black rock!" " Do I make myself clear?" " Yes, sir." "Praetor, I have an appointment with the Tholian ambassador." "Of course." "Senators, are there any others who wish to speak?" "Then I call for a vote on the motion to open trade negotiations with Celes II." "The Reman mines have not been filling their quotas." "Consider the trade committee's findings." "As much as we don't want..." "Someone alert security!" "Bring back Senator Tal'Aura!" "Duty." "A starship captain's life is filled with solemn duty." "I have commanded in battle, negotiated peace between implacable enemies." "I have represented the Federation in first contact with 27 alien species." "But none of this compares with my solemn duty today as best man." "Now, on an occasion such as this, it is expected that I be gracious and fulsome in my praise on the wonders of this blessed union." "But have the two of you considered what you are doing to me?" "You're happy, but what about my needs?" "This is all a damned inconvenience." "While you're settling in on the Titan," "I will be training my new first officer." "You know him." "He's a tyrannical martinet who will never, ever allow me to go on away missions!" "That is the regulation, sir." "Starfleet Code, section 12..." " Data." " Sir?" " Shut up." " Yes, sir." "15 years I've been waiting to say that." "No, seriously, Will, Deanna, there's still time to reconsider." "Yes?" " No." " No?" "Very well, then." "Will Riker, you have been my trusted right arm for 15 years." "You have kept my course true and steady." "Deanna Troi, you have been my guide and my conscience." "You have helped me recognize the better parts of myself." "You are my family." "In maritime tradition I wish you both clear horizons." "My good friends, make it so." "The bride and groom!" "You ever think about marrying again?" "No, 23 was my limit." "Worf?" " Are you all right?" " Romulan ale should be illegal." "It is." " A lovely toast." " It was from the heart." "Don't worry." "I'll brief your new counsellor on everything she has to know." "Like hell you are!" "You already know too much about me." "I take it there'll be no speeches during the ceremony on Betazed?" "No, no speeches and no clothes." "Ladies and gentlemen and invited transgendered species, in Terran and Betazoid conjugal rites, I've discovered it is traditional to present the happy couple with a gift." "Given Commander Riker's affection for archaic musical forms," "I have elected to present the following as my gift, in honour of their conjugation." "Never saw the sun shining so bright" "Never saw things going so right" "Noticing the days hurrying by" "When you're in love, my, how they fly!" " Blue skies, smiling at me" " Irving Berlin!" "Nothing but blue skies do I see..." "It's tradition, Worf." " You should appreciate that." " I will not do it!" " Won't do what, Mr Worf?" " Captain, I think it inappropriate for a Starfleet officer to appear... naked." "Come, a strapping fellow like you?" "What can you be afraid of?" "I'm picking up an odd electromagnetic signature from the Kolarin system." " What sort of signature?" " Positronic." "It's very faint but I've isolated it to the third planet in the Kolarin system." " What do we know?" " Uncharted." " We'll have to get closer for more detail." " Theories?" "Positronic signatures are only known to emanate from androids." "It is logical to theorise there is an android on Kolarus III." "Just what I feared." "Captain?" "Diverting there takes us close to the Romulan Neutral Zone." "It's still well on our side." "I think it's worth a look." "Don't worry, Number One." " We'll have you to Betazed in time." " Thank you, sir." "Where we will all honour the Betazoid tradition." "Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll be in the gym." "Mr Branson, lay in a course for the Kolarin system, warp five." "What do you think, Data?" "A long-lost relative?" "I read six distinct positronic signatures, spread out over a few kilometres." " What about the population?" " Isolated pockets of humanoids." "It appears to be a pre-warp civilization in early industrial development." "I wouldn't recommend the transporter." "That ion storm doesn't look neighbourly." " It could head our way without warning." " Understood." " Data, Mr Worf, you're with me." " I needn't remind you..." "I appreciate your concern, Number One, but I've been itching to try the Argo." "I'll bet." "Captain's prerogative." "There's no foreseeable danger." "And your wife wouldn't forgive me if anything happened to you." "You have the bridge..." "Mr Troi." "I am puzzled by the human predilection for piloting vehicles at unsafe velocities." "Over that rise, sir, half a kilometre." "The electromagnetic field is disrupting my tricorder." " We're within metres of the signal." " Fan out." "Let's search around." " It appears to be a robotic arm." " Very astute." "Bring it to the vehicle." "This doesn't feel right." "The final signature is 100 metres north." " It's you." " The resemblance is striking." "Fascinating." "To the vehicle!" "I think it's time to try some unsafe velocities." "Why do you have a shiny head?" " Conversation isn't appropriate." " Why?" " The captain has to concentrate." " Why?" " Because..." " Data!" "Sorry, sir." "Have I said something wrong?" "You know, all things considered, Data, I think you have nicer eyes." "Our eyes are identical, Doctor." " So what have we got, Geordi?" " Well his mechanics are like Data's, with less positronic development." "The neural pathways aren't as sophisticated." "I'd say he's a prototype." "Something Dr Soong created prior to Data." " Do you have a name, sir?" " I am..." "B-4." "B-4?" "Dr Soong's penchant for whimsical names has no end." "How did you come to be where we found you?" " I do not know." " Do you remember anything of your life?" "No." "Why does the tall man have a furry face?" "Number One, keep me informed, and Geordi, reassemble him." " B-4, do you know who I am?" " You are me." "No." "My name is Data." "I am your brother." "Tea, Earl Grey, hot." "An Alpha Priority communication from Starfleet Command for you, Captain." "Acknowledged." "Admiral Janeway, good to see you." "Jean-Luc." "How would you like a trip to Romulus?" " With or without the fleet?" " A diplomatic mission." "We're invited, believe it or not." "There's been an internal political shake up." "The new Praetor, Shinzon, has requested a Federation envoy." " New Praetor?" " Here's more." "He's Reman." "Believe me, we don't understand it either." "You're the closest ship." "Go and hear what he has to say." "Get the lay of the land." "An unstable Empire could mean trouble for the quadrant." " Understood." " We're sending you all our intelligence." "But it's not much." "I don't need to tell you to watch your back." " Hardly." " The Son'a, the Borg, the Romulans..." "you get all the easy assignments." " Just lucky, Admiral." " Let's hope it holds." "Janeway out." "Helmsman, lay in a new course." "Take us to Romulus." "Warp eight." "Course laid in." " Romulus?" " The Opal Sea will have to wait." "Engage." "As you can see, one side of Remus always faces the sun." "Due to the extreme temperatures on that half, the Remans live on the dark side." "Little is known of the Reman home world, although scans have revealed dilithium mining and heavy weapons construction." "The Remans themselves are considered an undesirable caste in the Empire." "They're said to be formidable warriors." "In the Dominion War, Reman troops were used as assault forces." " Cannon fodder." " How did a Reman get to be Praetor?" " I don't get it." " Romulan collaborators?" " Coup d'état?" " The Praetor's power is their fleet." "They must have been behind Shinzon." "What have we learned about Shinzon?" "Only a part of his military record." "He is young and a capable commander." "He won 12 major engagements in the war." " Beyond that, we know nothing." " Well, we're sailing into the unknown." "Keep at it." "Give me anything you can." "Dismissed." "I still can't believe the captain went along with a memory download." "He agrees that the B-4 probably has the same self-actualization parameters as myself." "If my memory engrams are successfully integrated into his positronic matrix," " he should have all my abilities." " He'd have all your memories as well." " You feel comfortable with that?" " I feel nothing, Geordi." "With my memory engrams, he will be able to be a more complete individual." " An individual more like you, you mean?" " Yes." "Maybe he's not supposed to be like you." "Maybe he's supposed to be as he is." "That might be so, but he should have the opportunity to explore his potential." "OK, we're done." " B-4, do you know where you are?" " I am in a room with lights." "Remember our father?" " Our father?" " Yes, Dr Soong." " No." " Do you know the name of the captain?" "No." "Data, he's assimilating a lot of programming." "He's a lot less sophisticated than you." "We don't know if his matrix will be able to adapt." "We need to give him time." "Geordi, what purpose does this serve?" " What?" " This." "A redundant memory port." "Maybe the provisional storage is in case his neural pathways overload." "Mind if I keep him here?" "Run a few diagnostics?" "I do not mind." " Data!" " No." "Remain with Commander La Forge." "He will try to help you." "Captain's log:" "Stardate 56844.9." "The Enterprise has arrived at Romulus and waits at the designated coordinates." "All our hails have gone unanswered." "We've been waiting for 17 hours." " Counsellor?" " They're out there, sir." " Captain!" "Recommend we raise shields." " Not yet, Mr Worf." "With due respect to diplomatic protocol, the Federation Council isn't here." " We are." " Patience." "Diplomacy is very exacting." " We will wait." " Captain..." " Shields!" " No!" " Captain..." " Tactical!" "52 disruptor banks, 27 photon torpedo bays, primary and secondary shields." "She's a predator." "We're being hailed." "On screen." "Enterprise, we are the Reman war bird, Scimitar." " Praetor Shinzon, I'm pleased to..." " I am not Shinzon." "I am his viceroy." "We are sending transport coordinates." " Not very chatty." " Away Team, transporter room four." "I hope you'll forgive the darkness." "We are not comfortable in the light." " Praetor Shinzon?" " Captain Picard." "Jean-Luc Picard." "I'd always imagined you taller." "Isn't that odd?" "You may scan me without subterfuge, Commander Data." " You are not as we imagined you." " No?" "You're human." "Why have you asked us to come here?" "Praetor?" " I've never met a human woman before." " I'm only half human." "Deanna Troi, of Betazed." "Empathic and telepathic abilities, ship's counsellor." "All this I knew." "But I never knew you were so beautiful." "You're quite familiar with our personnel." "I am, Commander Riker." "May I touch your hair?" "We came to Romulus on a matter we were assured was of great importance." "If you have anything to say to us as Federation representatives, do it now." "Yes, I'm sorry, Captain." "There is so much we need to talk about." " I would be interested to know what." " Unity, Captain!" "Tearing down the walls between us to recognize that we are one." "I'm talking of the thing that makes us the same." "Peace." "We want peace." "You're thinking this all sounds too good to be true, but that the chance for peace is too promising to ignore." "I'm right?" " Yes." " Perhaps it's time to add illumination." "Computer, raise the lighting four levels." "When I was young I had an odd disease." "I developed a hyper-sensitivity to sound." "Even a whisper caused me agony." "No one could do anything." "Finally I was taken to a doctor with experience of Terran illnesses." "And he diagnosed Shalaft's Syndrome..." "Do you know of it, Captain?" "Yes." "Then you know it's a very rare syndrome." "Genetic." "Apparently, all the male members of a family have it." "Eventually I was treated and now I can hear as well as you can, Captain." "I can see as well as you can." "I can feel everything you feel." "In fact, I feel exactly what you feel." "Don't I, Jean-Luc?" "Come to dinner tomorrow on Romulus." "Just the two of us." "Or should I say, just the one of us?" "I think you'll be wanting this." "Until tomorrow then, Captain." "We have much to discuss." "Computer, return lighting to previous level." "There's no doubt." "Right down to your strain of Shalaft's Syndrome." "He's a clone." "They probably used a hair follicle or skin cell." " Why?" " I intend to find out, Number One." "Inform Starfleet of the situation." "I need to know where the hell he came from." "Counsellor." "We supported you, Shinzon, when you assassinated the Senate." "You told us the timing was perfect to attack the Federation." "Why the delay?" "You don't have to understand." "Why bring the Enterprise here?" " I have a purpose." " Then enlighten us." "Silence, Romulan!" "You must learn patience, Commander." "Spend 18 hours every day under the lash of a Romulan guard and you'll soon understand patience." "Now go." "Commander Donatra." "Remain." "There's a word I want you to consider." "Allegiance." "It's something I demand from those who serve me." " Do I serve you?" " Yes..." "And I think faithfully." "Commander Suran, on the other hand, gives me pause." "Here's another word, Praetor." "Trust." "Do you trust me?" "How far does that trust extend?" "How deep does it go?" "What must a commander do to prove herself faithful?" "What must a woman do?" "You are not a woman." "You are a Romulan." "Serve me faithfully and you will be rewarded." "Keep those lovely eyes on Commander Suran." "And at the first sign of treachery..." "Dispose of him." "Then you will have proven yourself." "Now go." "Commander!" "If you ever touch me again I'll kill you." "The Romulans had gained possession of your DNA and created me." "And when I was ready, they were going to replace you with me." "Put a Romulan agent at the heart of Starfleet." "It was a bold plan." " What happened?" " As happens frequently on Romulus, a new government came to power and abandoned the plan." "They were afraid I'd be discovered and that it would lead to war." " Not quite the face you remember." " Not quite." "A lifetime of violence will do that." "They broke my nose, my jaw." "But so much is the same." "The eyes." " Surely you recognize the eyes?" " Yes." "Our eyes reflect our lives, don't they?" "And yours are so confident." " So I'm not as tall as you expected?" " I'd always hoped I might hit two metres." "As had I." "How did you end up on Remus?" "They sent me there to die." "How could a mere human survive the dilithium mines?" "Not that it mattered, as I was no longer part of their plans against the Federation." "In those terrible depths lived only the damned." "Along with the Reman slaves," "I was condemned to unceasing labour and starvation under the brutal heel of the Romulan guards." "Only the strongest had any hope of survival." "I was only a child when they took me." "I didn't see the sun or the stars for ten years." "The only thing the Romulan guards hated more than the Remans was me." "But one man took pity on me, the man that became my viceroy and protected me from the guards' cruelty." "He taught me how to survive." "And in that dark place, where there was nothing of myself," "I found my Reman brothers." "They showed me the only kindness I've ever known." " This is all to liberate the Remans?" " The single thought behind all I've done." "From secretly building the Scimitar to assembling my army." "Finally coming to Romulus, in force." "I knew they'd never give us freedom." " I would have to take it!" " But how many Romulans died for it?" "Too many." "But finally the Empire is realizing that there is a better way." "And that way is peace." " You don't trust me." " I have no reason to." "You have every reason." "If you had lived my life, and experienced the suffering of my people, you'd be standing where I am." "If you'd lived mine, you'd understand my responsibility to the Federation." "I cannot allow my personal feelings to unduly influence my decisions." "All I have are my personal feelings!" "I want to know what being human means." "The Remans gave me a future." " You can tell me about my past." " I can tell you about mine." " Were we Picards always warriors?" " I think of myself as an explorer." "Well, were we always explorers?" "I was the first Picard to leave our system." "It caused quite a stir in the family, but I'd spent my youth..." "Looking at the stars, dreaming about what was up there, about..." "New worlds." "I'm trying to believe you." "If there is one ideal the Federation holds most dear, it is that all men, all races, can be united." "What better example?" "A Starfleet captain standing in the Romulan Senate." "Nothing would make me more proud than to take your hand in friendship." "In time." "When trust has been earned." " Sir, the main computer was accessed." " Source?" "It'll take time to figure out." "The data stream was re-routed all over the ship." " What was accessed?" " That's what I can't figure out." "It's mostly basic stellar cartography:" "Star charts, protocols, colony uplinks." " It's not even restricted material." " We must still learn the source." "Captain, there's something else." "I was reviewing the sensor logs." "Look!" "When the Scimitar de-cloaked, there was a spike in the tertiary EM band." "You're not going to believe this." "It's Thalaron." " I thought Thalaron radiation was theory." " That's why initial scans missed it." "He's got it." "Research was banned in the Federation because Thalaron is biogenic." "It can consume organic material at the subatomic level." "I can't overestimate the danger of Thalaron radiation." "A microscopic amount could kill all of us in seconds." "Understood." "I want to know what he has and how we can neutralize any threat." "I need options." "This was a mistake." "We're wasting time." "My time." "And I'll spend it how I choose." "Do not forget our mission, Shinzon." "We must act." "Now!" "We'll return to the Scimitar." "I was merely curious about him." "Come." "Come in." "Remember him?" " He was a bit cocky as I recall." " He was a damned fool." "Selfish." "Ambitious." "Very much in need of seasoning." "He turned out all right." "I really wanted to believe Shinzon." "But this Thalaron radiation just can't be explained away." "Whatever he's after, it isn't peace." "Is he very much the way you were?" "Oh, yes." " Data to Captain Picard." " Go ahead." "We have identified the source of the unauthorized computer access." "We have found a tactical advantage." "On my way." "Will?" "As ship's counsellor, I recommend you get some sleep." "Some honeymoon!" "Come to bed." "Imzadi." "Imzadi." "He can never know you as I can." "He can never touch you as I can." " This isn't real!" " Feel my lips." "I'm with you, Imzadi." "I'll always be with you now." " This isn't real!" " What is it?" " No!" " Deanna?" " Deanna!" " No!" "The bond has been broken." "Find her again." "We've received the transponder signal." "It's accelerating." "You have no more time for games." "Have the doctors prepare." "Transport." "Begin the download." "Tea, hot." "Aside from elevated levels of adrenalin and serotonin, you're perfectly normal." "Deanna, can you describe it?" "It was..." "It was a violation." "Shinzon's viceroy seems able to reach into my thoughts." "I'm a liability." "I request to be relieved." "Permission denied." "If you can endure more of these assaults, I need you." "Now more than ever." "The Enterprise is far from Federation space..." "Shields up!" "Hello." "Why am I here?" "Why do this?" "I was lonely." " What are you going to do?" " I need a blood sample." "What is it your Borg friends say?" "Resistance is futile." "Oh, yes, the android." " The bait you couldn't refuse." " All of this to capture me?" "Don't be so vain." "After we found it, we had to make a few modifications." "An extra memory port, a hidden transponder." "I've now gained access to Starfleet's communications protocol." "I now know the exact location of your entire fleet." " You may go." " Where?" "Out of my sight." " What is all this about?" " It's about destiny!" " About a Reman outcast..." " You're not Reman!" "And I'm not quite human!" "So what am I?" "My life is meaningless as long as you're still alive." "What am I while you exist?" "A shadow?" "An echo?" "If your issues are with me, then deal with me." "This has nothing to do with my ship or the Federation!" "But it does." "We will no longer bow before anyone as slaves." "Not the Romulans and not your mighty Federation." "We are a race bred for war." "And conquest." "You're ready to plunge the quadrant into war to satisfy your personal demons?" "It's amazing how little you know yourself." " I'm incapable of such an act!" " You are me!" "The same noble Picard blood runs through our veins." "Had you lived my life, you'd be doing exactly as I am!" "So look in the mirror." "See yourself." "Consider that, Captain." "I can think of no greater torment for you." "Shinzon..." "I'm a mirror for you as well." "Not for long, Captain." "I'm afraid you won't survive to witness the victory of the echo over the voice." "His cloak is perfect." "No tachyon emissions, no residual antiprotons." "Keep at it, Geordi." "Find a way in." "Praetor Shinzon needs the prisoner." " About time, Data." " My mission succeeded." "I have located the radiation source." "This entire ship is a Thalaron generator." "The activation matrix is on the bridge." "It's a weapon, then..." "And the download?" "Shinzon believes he has our communication protocols." "They'll give him inaccurate locations for all Starfleet vessels." " Good work." " Sir..." "Geordi fitted the prototype for the Emergency Transport Unit." "Use this, sir, to return to the Enterprise." " It'll only work for one of us." " Yes, sir." "We'll find a way off together." "It is time for the procedure." "Move, puny human animal!" "A bit less florid, Data." "Kill him!" "This way, sir." "There is a shuttle bay 94 metres from our current position." " There it is, sir!" " Go!" "It has encrypted security." "Alacrity would be appreciated!" "Reman is a complex language with pictographs as verb roots..." "That's fascinating, Data, but we really need that door open!" "According to the ship's manifest, they are Scorpion-class attack fliers." " Data, what do you imagine this is?" " Port thruster." "Would you like me to drive, sir?" " Can you open the shuttle bay doors?" " Negative." "A force field is now in place." "Well, then... only one way to go." " Is this wise, sir?" " We're about to find out." " Power up the disruptors." " Ready, Captain." "Fire!" "Tractor beam!" "Lock on transporter!" "I have them." " This has gone far enough!" " I thought we'd discussed patience." "Mine is waning." "We supported you as you promised action." "Yet you delay." "The Enterprise is immaterial." "They won't make it out of the Neutral Zone." "In two days, the Federation will be crippled beyond repair." "Satisfied?" " For the moment." " And when I return you and I shall have a little talk about showing proper respect!" "What's happening to his face?" "Commander, a moment." "Are you prepared to have your hands drenched in blood?" "He's not planning to defeat Earth." "He's planning its annihilation." "His sins will mark us all, for generations." "The more I studied his DNA, the more confusing it got." "I drew one conclusion." "Shinzon was created with temporal RNA sequencing so that his aging process could be accelerated to reach your age more quickly and skip 30 years of his life." "But the sequencing wasn't activated, so his cellular structure is decaying." " He's dying." " Dying?" " Can anything be done for him?" " Only a complete transfusion from the only donor with compatible DNA..." "You." " How long does he have?" " I can't say for sure." "But the rate of decay is accelerating." "Then he'll come for me." " Brother, I cannot move." " No." "I have only activated your cognitive and communications subroutines." " Why?" " Because you are dangerous." "Why?" "You were programmed to gather information to use against this ship." "I do not understand." "I know." "Do you know anything about Shinzon's plans against the Federation?" " No." " Or the tactical abilities of his ship?" "No." "Can I move now?" "No." " What are you doing?" " I must deactivate you." " For how long?" " Indefinitely." "How long is that?" "A long time, brother." "It's called a cascading biogenic pulse." "Thalaron's properties allow the energy beam to expand almost without limit." "Depending on its radiant intensity, it could encompass a ship." "Or a planet." "He'd only have built such a weapon for one reason." "He's going after Earth." " How can you be certain?" " I know how he thinks." "Destroy humanity, you cripple the Federation." " The Romulans invade." " No way of penetrating his cloak?" "No." "He could be close to every Starfleet ship and they'd never know." "We do have one advantage." "He needs your blood to live." " He might come after you first." " I'm counting on it." "We've been ordered to sector 10-45 to meet our fleet." " Strength in numbers." " So we hope." "He must not be allowed to use that weapon." "All other concerns are secondary." "Understand?" "Yes, sir." "All hands, battle stations." "Initiate the force field!" "Captain's personal log." "We're heading for Federation space at maximum warp." "The crew has responded with the dedication I've come to expect." "Like a thousand other commanders on other battlefields, I wait for the dawn." "How long?" "A matter of hours..." "We must begin the procedure now." "How long until we reach the Rift?" "Seven minutes." "Data, what's our current position?" "How soon until we reach the fleet?" "At our current velocity, we will arrive at sector 10-45 in 40 minutes." ""For now we see but through a glass darkly."" " Sir?" " He said he's a mirror." " Of you, sir?" " Yes." "I do not agree." "Although you share the same genetic structure, your life has created an individual." "If I had lived his life, is it possible that I would have rejected my humanity?" "B-4 is identical to me, although his neural pathways are not as advanced." "Even if they were, he would not be me." " How can you be sure?" " I aspire, sir." "To be better than I am." "B-4 does not." "Nor does Shinzon." "We are passing through the Bassen Rift." "The projection will return." "It's interfering with our uplink?" "The Rift affects all long-range..." "Evasive man oeuvres!" "Target weapons systems and shields." "I don't want the Enterprise destroyed." "Can you learn to see in the dark?" " Report." " He's cloaked." "We can't get a lock." "He hit our warp drive." "We're on impulse." "Full phaser spread, zero elevation!" "All banks on my mark!" "Scan for shield impacts!" "Stand by torpedoes!" "Fire!" "You're too slow, old man." "Attack pattern Shinzon Theta." " We are losing dorsal shields!" " Full to port!" "Fire all ventral phasers!" "Minimal damage to the Scimitar." "Defensive pattern Kirk Epsilon." "Shields online." "Already on it." " Counsellor Troi, report to the bridge." " Captain, we are being hailed." "On screen." "Captain Picard, will you join me in your ready room?" "You can't trace my holographic emitters, Captain." "And you can't contact Starfleet." "It's just the two of us now, Jean-Luc." " As it should be." " Why are you here?" "To accept your surrender." "I can clearly destroy you at any time." "Lower your shields and allow me to transport you to my ship." "And the Enterprise?" "I have little interest in your quaint vessel, Captain." "Look at me." "Your heart, your hands, your eyes are the same as mine." "The blood within you, the raw material is the same." " We have the same potential." " That's the past..." "It can be the future." "Buried deep within you, beneath the years of pain and anger, there is something never nurtured:" "The potential to make yourself a better man." "That is what it is to be human:" "To make yourself more than you are." "Oh, yes, I know you." "Once, you looked at the stars and dreamed of what might be." "Childish dreams, Captain." "Lost in the dilithium mines of Remus." "I am what you see now." "I see more." "I see what you could be." "The man who is Shinzon and Picard could never annihilate an entire planet!" " He's better than that!" " He's what his life has made him." "And what will you do with that life?" "Waste it in a blaze of hatred?" " There is a better way." " It's too late!" "Never!" "Make the right choice now!" " I can't fight what I am!" " Yes, you can!" "I'll show you my true nature." "Our nature." "And as Earth dies, remember I will always be Shinzon of Remus!" "My voice shall echo through time long after yours has faded to a dim memory!" "Two ships de-cloaking, sir!" "Romulan!" "Captain!" "It gets worse." " We are being hailed." " On screen." "Captain Picard, Commander Donatra of the war bird Valdore." "Might we be of assistance?" "Assistance?" "This is a matter of internal security." "We regret you've become involved." "When this is over, I owe you a drink." "Romulan ale, Captain." "Let's get to work." "You heard the lady." "Let's go to work!" "Coordinate our attack with the Valdore." " Triangulate fire on shield impacts." " Aye." " Aft shields at 40%." " Keep our bow on the Scimitar." " Power to forward shields." " Aye." "Target the war bird." "All forward disruptor banks." " Forward shields at 10%!" " Bring us about!" "Drop cloak on aft port quadrant." "Prepare for emergency stop." " What?" " You heard me!" "He's losing his cloak!" "Stand by all forward disruptor banks!" " She's almost on us!" " Not yet." " Praetor!" " Full stop!" "Fire!" "Restore aft cloak." "Full about." "That drink will have to wait." " You have life support?" " For the moment." " But we're crippled." " Understood." "Losing structural integrity on decks 12 to 17, sections 4 to 10." "Force fields holding." "Evacuate those decks." "Re-route power to shields." "Captain, I may have a way to find them." "Prepare for a lateral run." "All starboard disruptors." "What is it?" "She's here!" "He's resisting me." " No!" " Remember me?" "Now!" "Fire!" "Bring me Picard!" "You!" "Get the cloak back!" "Target shield coordinates Beta-3." "All disruptors." "Fire!" "Ventral shielding lost on deck 29!" "Compensate!" " Intruder alert!" " Number One." " Let's go!" " Security detail to deck 29!" " The Romulans fought with honour." " Yes, they did, Mr Worf." "Cover me!" "Medics!" "Report!" "We have no photon torpedoes." "Phaser banks down to 4%." "If we targeted all phasers in a pattern?" "Scimitar shields are still at 70%." "It would make no difference, Captain." "What's he doing?" "He wants to look me in the eye." "We've got him!" "He thinks he knows what I'm going to do." "Divert all power to the engines." "Even from life support." "Give me it all." " Ready, Captain." " We are being hailed." "Deanna, stand by." "Open a channel." " I hope you're still alive, Jean-Luc." " Oh, yes, I am." "Don't you think it's time to surrender?" "Why should the rest of your crew die?" "Shinzon, I don't think I ever told you about my first Academy evaluation." "In particular, I was thought to be extremely... over-confident." "As much as I enjoy listening to you talk, I really think..." "On my mark, Deanna!" "All hands, brace for impact!" "Engage!" "Hard to port!" "Divert all power to the engines." "Full reverse!" "Reconfiguring now." "Computer, stand by auto-destruct sequence Omega." "Voice pattern Jean-Luc Picard." "Authorization Alpha-Alpha-3-0-5." "Auto-destruct is offline." "Disruptors are not functional, sir." "Deploy the weapon." "Kill everything on that ship." "Then set a course for Earth." "We must complete our mission." "Matrix initiated." "Sequencing procedure for Thalaron radiation transfer activated." "Some ideals are worth dying for, aren't they, Jean-Luc?" "Thalaron intermix procedure initiated." "Deployment of targeting arms commencing." "How long until he can fire?" "Targeting should take seven minutes." "When the arms are fully deployed the matrix on the bridge will relay the Thalaron radiation to the firing points." "No one on the Enterprise will survive." " How can he?" "He'll kill you." " It's not about me any more." " Prepare a site-to-site transport." " I don't think..." " That's an order!" " Let me go." "I have to do this..." "You have the bridge." "Put some distance between you and the Scimitar." "Now, Mr La Forge." "Aye, sir." "That's it!" "Transporters down." "Counsellor Troi, assume command." "Geordi, come with me." "Thalaron intermix levels 30%." "Four minutes to firing sequence." "Thalaron intermix level 50%." "Three minutes to firing." "Thalaron intermix level 60%." "Two minutes to firing sequence." "Thalaron intermix level 80%." "I'm glad we're together now." "Our destiny is complete." "One minute to firing." "Thalaron intermix level completed." "30 seconds to firing sequence." " Goodbye." " Ten nine... eight... seven six... five four... three..." "Data?" "Captain!" "It's Data." " We're being hailed." " On screen." "Open a channel." "This is Commander Donatra." "We're dispatching medics and supplies." "Thank you." "You've earned a friend in the Romulan Empire today." "I hope the first of many." "Valdore out." "Geordi... prepare the shuttle bay for arrivals." "They don't know our procedures." " Just open the doors." " I'll take care of it." "You have the bridge, Number One." "Thank you." "To absent friends." "To family." "First time I saw Data, he was leaning against a tree in the holodeck trying to whistle." "Funniest thing I ever saw." "No matter what he did, he couldn't get the tune right." "What was that song?" "Can't remember the song." "Come." " Will." " Permission to disembark, sir." "Granted." "So, where's the Titan off to?" "The Neutral Zone." "We're heading up the new task force." "The Romulans are interested in talking." "I can't think of a better man for the job." "If I may, some advice about your first command?" "Anything." "When your first officer insists you can't go on away missions..." "Ignore him." "I intend to." "Serving with you has been an honour." "The honour was mine, Captain." "I don't know if this has made sense." "I wanted you to know the man he was." "In his quest to be more like us he helped us to see what it means to be human." "My... brother was not human." "No, he wasn't." "But his wonder, his curiosity about every facet of human nature allowed us to see the best of ourselves." "He evolved." "He embraced change because he always wanted to be better than he was." "I... do not understand." "Well, I hope some day you will." "Captain, the warp engines are ready." "Coming." "Inform Commander La Forge." "We'll talk later." "Never saw the sun..." "Never saw the sun..." "Never saw the sun..." " Shining so bright" " Shining so bright" "Never saw things..." "Going so right." "Going so right" "Going so right"

"Attention all fellow deer." "If you find deer feet in the middle of the forest be a bit suspicious." "Morning sir, how are you doing?" " Good."

"Because his tongue is stuck to the mailbox." "Why did he lick the mailbox?" "Because he has OCD And his obsessed licking on mail boxes." "Why was he not in school?" "Are you going to let me tell the story, Or are you going to drive me crazy." "Maybe he did not go to school, Because he had the OCD." "Sorry." "You should hear the way he goes on about his." "Body mass, weight index Bullshit, God." "When was the last time you even played basketball Mac?" "He had to be brought down." "I am sure, You are pulling your groin muscle and really impressed him."

"Any pie?" " Completely pie free." "Excuse me, we are all finished." "Because this is our first visit, We did the appliances" "That we are going to alternate them weekly in the future." "Rose..." " Rose Lorkowski." "I'm Paula Datzman of the cheer-leading squad Of the junior year." "Paula Datzman, hi." "How are you?" " Great." "I am Paula Datzman-Mead now." " Congratulations." "We are expecting our second In a couple of months." "I was always so envious of you." "Head cheerleader." "Dating the quarterback." "Did you and Mac ended up married?" "No, you know, I heard That he married to Heather Voldman?" "It's so great to see you." "Let me get your information." "And I'll send you an invitation, To the Baby Shower." "Fantastic, great."

"Maybe ill check on to Lawn and Foster, They look nice." "Hello." " Hello, Miss Lorkowski." "This is Mrs Sears from the sandy elementary school." "Oscar is in trouble again."

"Monsters and swordplay, that sort of thing." "I'm not detecting any life signs, but there is still considerable interference." "I can't determine the source." "Speak as a friend or stand challenged." "Computer, delete character." "The holodeck command systems must not be functioning either." "We must also consider the possibility that the safety programs are malfunctioning as well." "I'm am Freya, shield-maiden, daughter of King Hrothgar." "I hold this guard post against any intruders who would bear us harm." "So declare yourselves." "I will hear your answer before you march any further through this land." "We have no desire to trespass." "However, we are on an urgent mission, so if you would allow us to continue, we would appreciate it." "What land do you call home?" "Your faces tell me you are not men of the Danes." "Are you... kinsmen of Beowulf?" "Yes." "We are Beowulf's kinsmen." "My name is Chakotay, and this is Tuvok." "Have you seen Beowulf?" "Yes." "He was like no other." "Hair straight and raven black, eyes bright with fierce fire, the burning gaze of a hero." "Grandiloquence notwithstanding, that would qualify as a description of Mr. Kim." "How did you know he was Beowulf?" "This is Harry's holonovel." "It'd make sense that he'd be playing the hero." "She might be able to help us figure out what happened to him." "A reasonable assumption." "Your kinsman was a truly noble warrior." "It is right you should avenge his death." "Yes, but first, we'd like to know more about how Beowulf died." "Of course." "Come." "I will take you to the king." "Hail, Lord Hrothgar." "I bring new friends," "Chakotay and Tuvok, kinsmen of Beowulf, who come to avenge his death." "Greet them well." "I would bid you welcome to my hall, but the days of glad tidings are gone from this place." "We grieve with you for your kinsman." "We had hoped that a warrior of Beowulf's strength and renown would be able to deliver us from our curse." "Could you tell us exactly what happened to him?" "He met with the same fate as did 30 of our own warriors." "Grendel." "That's the monster who's been attacking you." "Repelled by light and laughter, the beast waits until we slumber." "Then, bereft of remorse," "Grendel comes in murderous rage to my hall to take my people, and there is nothing anyone can do to stop it." "If you are wise, you will forego your vengeance and return home." "Death lives here now." "My Lord is fatigued." "It is time to retire." "We would like more information about Beowulf." "Would it be possible to examine his body?" "The body of Beowulf is gone." "Dragged down to Grendel's foul lair, no doubt." "The beast leaves no traces." "Did anyone actually see the battle?" "No." "Beowulf chose to face Grendel alone." "Then I think we'd like to see this Grendel for ourselves." "To what purpose?" "To raise false hopes in our king again as did your kinsman?" "Leave us alone in our misery." "Unferth!" "These men are our guests." "You will show them the hospitality they deserve." "They deserve nothing!" "If their Beowulf was truly the champion he claimed to be, then Grendel would be dead, his head mounted on a spear." "Instead, we spend yet another night in terror." "If you would allow us to assist you, perhaps we could help alleviate your terror." "Your names mean nothing to me." "There are no songs of your deeds nor stories of the battles you have fought." "Who are you to believe you can slay Grendel?" "We have no intention of slaying anyone." "We simply wish to examine the creature." "Grendel might not wish to be examined... without a fight." "And if you would fight Grendel, then you will first prove your worth to me." "Defend yourselves." "You are able warriors." "You may stand sentry tonight." "You are brave men." "I hope to see you again, fate permitting." "Chakotay to Janeway." "Go ahead." "Captain, we haven't found any definite signs of Harry, but we've encountered several holodeck characters who claim to know what happened to him." "Mr. Kim was running a holonovel based on the poem Beowulf." "According to the holo-characters, he attempted to battle a creature of some kind and was killed in the process." "Killed?" "Since the safety programs are malfunctioning, we must consider the possibility." "But..." "you haven't found a body?" "No. lf we shut down the program, we'd know if he's here or not." "Run a diagnostic on the holodeck's imaging control systems." "If they're not working, try to repair them." "And relay your tricorder scans to the Bridge." "I'd like to analyze your readings." "Aye, Captain." "Chakotay out." "The primary imaging matrix should be here behind this wooden panel." "I will attempt to locate the auxiliary matrix." "This ancient Earth culture seems fascinated with monsters." "Every culture has its demons." "They embody the darkest emotions of its people." "Giving them physical form in heroic literature is a way of exploring those feelings." "The Vok'sha of Rakella Prime believe that hate is a beast which lives inside the stomach." "Their greatest mythical hero is a man who ate stones for 23 days to kill the beast, and became a saint." "Such fables are necessary only in cultures which unduly emphasize emotional behavior." "I would point out there are no demons in Vulcan literature." "That might account for its popularity." "Bridge to Chakotay." "Chakotay here." "Commander, we've analyzed your tricorder data." "A deep-level scan shows minute quantities of photonic energy." "How could it be in the holodeck?" "We think it happened when we beamed aboard the samples from the protostar." "There was a breach in the annular confinement beam, and photonic energy must have leaked into the transporter system." "And from there into other ship systems as well." "We've already found some in the replicators." "That raises an uncomfortable possibility, Captain." "If the holodeck's conversion nodes were contaminated," "Ensign Kim may have inadvertently undergone the process of matter conversion." "You're saying he might have been converted into energy?" "We have to consider it a possibility." "After all, the holodecks are basically an outgrowth of transporter technology." "Changing energy into matter and back again." "Every time a program is run." "Except it's not supposed to convert people." "Hold on, Captain." "Something's coming." "It is an object approximately one meter in diameter." "I think Grendel may be paying us a visit." "Captain, the holo-characters told us" "Kim was killed by Grendel." "An examination of this part of the program might be advisable." "Proceed." "Captain, I'm picking up signs of matter/energy conversion." "Emergency transport." "Get them out of there now." "I can't get a lock." "Commander Chakotay, report." "Mr. Tuvok?" "Captain, I've lost their life signs." "They're gone." "This is a scan of the holodeck just before we lost contact with Chakotay and Tuvok." "The readings are pretty garbled, but I'm still inclined to think that there is a malfunction in the holodeck's matter conversion nodes." "Photonic energy leaking into the subsystems could certainly damage the nodes, and it might have created a defect in the program that occurs when Grendel shows up." "A defect that dematerialized our people." "I'm not willing to accept the fact that Harry and the others are gone for good." "Their molecular patterns might still be there." "And if they are, we might be able to rematerialize them." "The only thing we can do is go back into the holodeck." "Study this... energy surge." "Find out what exactly happened." "Anyone who goes back in there might wind up just like the others." "Maybe not anyone." "Me?" "A hologram can't be converted into energy." "It already is energy." "You're the perfect choice." "How do you intend to transfer me out of Sick Bay?" "We'll have to modify your data stream protocols and imaging systems, but the fact that you're going to the holodeck simplifies things." "The projection systems are already in place there." "And we're going to give you complete control over your magnetic containment field." "You'll be able to make yourself solid, or let matter pass through you at will." "Nothing on the holodeck will be able to touch you-- unless you want it to." "I see." "Think of this as your first away mission, Doctor." "Think of this as your first away mission, Doctor." "I can understand your hesitation, but there are three lives at stake, and you have the best chance of anyone on this ship to save them." "Do you understand that?" "Yes." "Good." "Your job is to find the photonic energy surge and scan it closely." "We need all the data we can get." "You'll have to interact with the characters in the holonovel, so make sure you're familiar with the Beowulf story." "Your circuit modifications will be finished in three hours." "Yes, Captain." "Computer, access full text of ancient Earth epic Beowulf including historical annotation and cultural references." "Data compilation in progress." "Doctor?" "Ah, Kes." "Come in." "I don't know how long l'll be gone, but my absence is no reason to suspend your studies." "How are you doing with the protein synthesis text?" "I finished it yesterday." "Good." "Then you may as well start learning how to operate the base-pair sequencer." "You'll find the manual in the technical data base." "Was there something else?" "There's something bothering you." "Not at all." "Now if you'll excuse me, I have a great deal of preparation to do." "You're nervous about this mission, aren't you?" "Nervous?" "I can perform emergency surgery without getting nervous." "I can make life-or-death decisions about patients without getting nervous." "What makes you think I'm nervous?" "Those things are familiar to you." "You've been programmed to do them, but... this is different, isn't it?" "I can describe every detail of every piece of equipment in this Sick Bay-- from bio-bed to neurostimulator-- but I've never even seen a sky or a forest, let alone Vikings and monsters." "I can't afford to fail." "But I don't know what to expect in that holodeck." "You've been telling me that you deserve to be treated like a member of the crew." "Well, here's your chance." "And I can tell you that none of the crew knows exactly what to expect when they go on an away mission." "Doctor, have you chosen a name for yourself yet?" "I have narrowed the list to three possibilities." "Then let me suggest you choose one before you go." "It might help you feel more like a Starfleet officer." "Hmm." "You may be right." "I'll give it some thought." "And Kes... thank you." "Good luck." "Paris to Janeway." "We're ready for the transfer, Captain." "Good." "Go ahead." "How about you, Doctor?" "You ready?" "Of course." "I've already transported a tricorder onto the holodeck." "Engaging transfer circuits..." "now." "is everything all right, Doctor?" "Yes." "There were no problems with the transfer." "I'm on my way." "Speak as a friend or stand challenged." "I am..." "Yes, you're Freya, the king's daughter." "A female warrior known as a shield-maiden." "We have never met, and yet you know my name?" "Are you a sorcerer?" "No." "It's simply that..." "your reputation precedes you." "A warrior of your skill... you're quite famous where l come from." "I did not know that word of my deeds has carried to other lands." "Tell me what you have heard." "Well... your battle with..." "Scyld the Gar-Dane?" "...is practically legend." "An incredible story." "I burned his hall to the ground." "There was nothing left but ashes!" "Charming." "And did you hear of my campaign against the heatho-bards to the south?" "I fought them for... I'd be delighted to hear all about it, but I'm on an urgent mission of my own." "I'm looking for Grendel." "Only a warrior would seek that which others flee." "What is your name?" "I'm glad you asked." "My name is..." "Schweitzer." "Dr. Schweitzer." ""Schweitzer."" "A hero's name." "Come, I will take you to the king." "Hmm." "The hall is not far from here." "Look-- fortune is with us." "Atuta-- a most powerful plant." "What exactly do you intend to do with it?" "We brew the atuta into a broth, which we drink before battle." "It brings on the spirit of the bear, and gives us strength to swing our swords." "It's more likely to bring on profuse sweating, convulsions, and acute delirium." "This is an Amanita muscaria-- a fungus common to subartic climates, and, let me assure you, quite poisonous." "Yes, but those it does not kill, it makes strong." "A most hearty plant." "Are you a master of herb-lore?" "Well, in a way, I suppose I am." "You are truly a man of many talents, Lord Schweitzer." "Your people must value you greatly." "You would think so." "Hail, Lord Hrothgar!" "I bring a new friend, Schweitzer, who has come to destroy Grendel." "Greet him well." "I would bid you welcome to my hall, but the days of glad tidings are gone from this place." "I'm sorry to hear that, but with your permission, sir, I'd like to stay here tonight, and wait for Grendel." "To what purpose?" "To raise false hopes again, as have others before you?" "Leave us alone in our misery." "I'm afraid I can't do that." "I have a mission." "Your name means nothing to me." "There are no songs of your deeds nor stories of the battles you have fought." "Who are you to believe you can slay Grendel?" "I'm simply a... warrior." "I'm only concerned with Grendel." "I have no quarrel with you." "Indeed you do, and if you will fight Grendel, then you will first prove your worth to me." "Defend yourself!" "Fate be with you." "If this is your best, then you should thank me." "Grendel would destroy you with far greater ease than I." "This is absurd." "So be it." "You might want to put some ice on that." "It'll take down the swelling." "Our time of deliverance is at hand." "We have been given a new champion-- one whom weapons cannot hurt." "The one who will destroy Grendel and end our suffering." "All hail the hero!" "All hail Schweitzer!" "All hail Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Schweitzer!" "Eat, eat." "What is it?" "Elk." "When I built this hall, the forest ran thick with them, but today, game's more scarce." "Enjoy it, Lord Schweitzer." "It is a great delicacy in our land." "Hmm. lt's quite good." "We rarely hear stories of other lands." "Honor us with a tale of your home to gladden our hearts." "I'm not much of a storyteller." "Please... indulge us." "Yes, tell us a tale of your prowess in battle." "Well, there was the time I managed to stop the spread of Parinisti measles before it became epidemic." "For a while, things were touch and go." "Six people came down with it." "Fortunately, I was able to isolate the endoplasmic virus and replicate it in order to form an antibody." "Even then, it wasn't altogether clear I could create an effective vaccine." "But I worked at it for 7 4 hours straight, and managed to create an inoculation that successfully protected the crew." "You'll excuse me, my Lord, if I take leave of this..." "folly." "A truly unique tale." "Come, Lord Schweitzer." "Allow me to show you my home." "If you are in need of anything, please do not hesitate to ask." "All I need is to find Grendel." "You are a true champion-- always ready for the fight." "Ah, perhaps you would like some mead to fortify yourself for battle?" "No, thank you." "I'm fine." "Away." "You're disturbing Lord Schweitzer!" "It was with that weapon I made my first kill." "I was 1 1 years old." "You killed someone when you were 1 1?" "Well, it's a poor weapon, I agree, but a token of my youth." "You must have similar trophies from your own childhood." "I... don't remember much about my childhood." "Well, I am certain you distinguished yourself in battle many times and did honor to your father." "My Lord, it grows late." "It is time to retire." "Always with you it is time to sleep." "Perhaps you have forgotten that the work of a warrior is battle, not rest!" "You would do well to learn from Lord Schweitzer." "This was a beautiful hall once... before Grendel." "You will make it so again." "You have our thanks." "I appreciate your faith in me, Sire." "Come, my lord." "You may have deceived them with your tricks, but the king is old and desperate for hope, and the rest are just fools!" "You have nothing to worry about, Unferth." "Once I'm done with Grendel, I'll be leaving." "We shall see." "The morning will prove if your deeds are as strong as your words." "The nights here are cold." "I wanted to make certain you were comfortable." "I appreciate your concern." "I thought everyone had gone to sleep." "Sleep does not come easily in this place." "Not anymore." "I was taught the world would end in winter." "First, there would be a desperate cold, followed by a demon who would devour the sun." "It has been long since we felt summer, and a demon does walk these halls." "Freya... your world isn't coming to an end." "Perhaps not, but it has changed." "Every night the monster comes, and every day our numbers are lessened, and no one will speak of it." "No one speaks of the fear that he will be next." "But each meal becomes quieter than the last, and after a time, we barely speak at all." "Do you know what it is to be alone among many, and unable to speak your fears?" "I think I do." "How do you survive?" "I'm still learning how." "I'm sure that's not very helpful." "Sometimes I believe I can see the moment of my own death." "It comes in battle, I think, my sword raised high." "It is said that fate often spares a doomed warrior, if his courage can prevail." "But there have been days when I felt my own courage falter... and then you came." "I'm glad I could help." "Perhaps I can help you." "Before combat, it is most important to stay warm." "Well, you've done an excellent job with the fire, I'm sure I'll..." "Fire is not the only heat, Lord Schweitzer." "You know where l sleep." "Holodeck to Bridge." "We're monitoring you." "Captain, I'm picking up readings of photonic energy." "Captain, it's right in front of me." "It's some kind of..." "photonic energy formation." "Emergency!" "Get me out of here!" "Now!" "Sick Bay, emergency transfer." "I'm on it." "Sick Bay, report." "Uh..." "I have him, Captain... more or less." "I think you better come take a look at this." "How does it feel?" "Just like the old one, actually." "Apparently, contact with photonic energy disrupted your magnetic cohesion, but we're still not sure if that's what happened to the others." "Captain, take a look at this." "The readings from the Doctor's tricorder when the energy surge made contact with him." "They're showing a synaptic pattern." "I wouldn't expect to see something like this in photonic energy." "is this the first time those patterns have shown up like this?" "Yes, but it's the first time we've had clear readings from a moment of contact." "I wonder if I could produce these same patterns in the samples we have in Engineering." "If you can, you might be able to get more information about how photonic energy damaged the holodeck systems." "I'm on it." "I'll give you a hand." "Okay... I've initiated a polarization field." "I'm introducing it into the container." "We're getting a reaction." "It's producing a synaptic pattern all right-- highly complex." "What's that?" "Whatever it is, it's cutting through the bulkheads." "Let's get a containment field around it." "It's heading for Deck 14, Section C-5." "Okay, now I've got a containment field blocking it." "Whoa." "It's changing direction." "It's like it's avoiding the containment field." "Let's give it another try." "Now it's blocked on three sides." "It's changing course." "Heading for the open side." "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" "Those synaptic patterns... could be some sort of neural net." "We may be dealing with a life-form." "Bridge to Engineering." "Torres here." "We're detecting an energy mass moving through the ship." "Right. lt broke through the sample container." "Captain, it's showing the properties of a life-form." "A life-form?" "It seems to have a neural net, and it's demonstrating signs of intelligent behavior." "It's cutting it's way through the ship." "Heading for the outer hull." "It'll breach in about 15 seconds." "Are there any critical systems in its path?" "Negative." "Then let it go." "Be ready to seal the hull breach with a force field." "I'll have a damage control team standing by for repairs." "And let's track it on sensors when it gets out." "Captain, it's penetrating the outer hull." "Force field is in place." "I'm showing the energy form 100 meters off our port side." "Let's get it on screen." "What was that?" "It appears to be some kind of photonic lattice." "And it seems pretty clear that the energy form was trying to get back to it." "As though it's..." "a shelter of some kind." "Or maybe a transportation device-- their equivalent of a ship." "At any rate, we had sensor contact for a few seconds, and we picked up three distinct bioelectrical patterns inside it." "Bioelectrical?" "What are you suggesting, Captain?" "We have three missing crewmen." "Our best guess has been that they were somehow converted into energy while they were on the holodeck." "We find no sign of them on this ship." "Then we pick up three discrete patterns in that lattice, three patterns that don't match anything else in the lattice and which have biological components." "I don't think it's a stretch to hypothesize that those are our crew members, converted into a kind of photonic energy." "But what are they doing over there?" "How did they get there?" "We have good evidence now that there are photonic beings that live in that protostar-- life-forms that have intelligence." "We didn't know that when we beamed those energy samples on board." "We had no idea that what we were doing, in essence, was capturing those life-forms." "We locked them in a containment field, and began to experiment on them." "If my people were taken like that... I know what my response would be." "I would do whatever was necessary to get them back." "Then you think they have simply... retaliated against us?" "Yes." "These beings can manifest themselves on the holodeck in the matrix of a holo-character." "That's how they were able to take our crew members hostage." "Captain, if you're right about this, then we should return the remaining life-form." "A gesture-- to show we mean well." "It's certainly worth a try." "If I took the life-form onto the holodeck and release it to Grendel, maybe they'll understand and release our people." "Ordinarily, officers go through intensive training before they're put into a First Contact situation... but you're the only one who can do this safely." "I'd like to finish what I started, Captain." "I can do this." "I agree." "Make arrangements to transfer the life-form to a container, so the Doctor can carry it." "But, remember... if you're holding the container, you'll have to stay in solid form." "I understand." "Freya?" "Freya!" "Lord Schweitzer!" "We thought the Grendel had taken you." "Not... entirely." "How did you survive?" "That would be difficult to explain, but that's not important right now." "This is a talisman to destroy Grendel..." "You lie!" "No man could survive an encounter with Grendel unless he were in league with the beast." "You have brought that talisman to destroy us all." "That is not true." "He has returned to help us." "No!" "You speak his lies now." "He has bewitched you." "Unferth, I need to get this talisman to the hall." "Then that gives me reason enough to make sure it never gets there." "No!" "Please!" "You don't know what you're doing." "Prepare to die, demon." "Freya..." "My Lord... my time has come." "Freya, I'm sorry." "There's nothing I can do." "It is a good death." "Take my sword." "Stop Unferth and Grendel." "I won't forget you." "Then I die happily... with your name on my lips." "Farewell..." "Schweitzer." "Here, Sire." "My Lord... you know me as a true warrior." "You know I am the one hope you have to rid your kingdom of Grendel." "That talisman will aid me in my conquest." "I must have it." "Do not listen to him." "He has already killed Freya." "Stop him, my Lord!" "He is a madman!" "The only reason you won't die is that I've taken an oath to do no harm." "Grendel... I'm ready for you." "I don't know if you can understand me-- but watch." "I'm setting this one free." "There's no need for any more of this." "Please... we ask you to return our crew." "Captain, the photonic lattice has reappeared." "Scan it." "All sensors." "I'm reading a massive particle surge on our holodeck." "The lattice is gone again." "Holodeck to Bridge." "Go ahead, Doctor." "What is it?" "We have them back, Captain-- all three of them." "Good work, Doctor." "Yeah." "Good work." "Would you mind telling me where l was?" "Captain's Log, Stardate 487 10.5." "Since the return of our missing crewmen, we've been unable to locate any further traces of the photonic aliens." "I don't know if the being understood language or just my behavior." "It would have been interesting to pursue the relationship further." "It's one of the most exciting aspects of space exploration-- meeting new species, establishing communication, sharing differences and similarities." "I'm sorry none of that happened this time." "But it did." "It just didn't happen in very predictable ways." "But if you think about it, we entered into conflict, communicated, and eventually established a peace treaty with them." "I'm placing a special commendation in the logs." "For exemplary performance by the Chief Medical Officer during his first away mission." "Thank you." "I'd like to cite you by name." "Kes tells me you've chosen one." "is that true?" "I had... but I'm not sure I want to keep it." "The last time I heard that name spoken was a... painful one." "I don't think I want to be reminded." "Sounds like you had quite an adventure on that holodeck, Doctor." "Yes, I would say so." "Well... something tells me you haven't had your last one." "Something tells me the same thing."

"in memory of my grandfather, Nazmi Erdoðan and my brother, Gürdal Tosun..." "1974" " A small town in southeastern Turkey" "Emin!" "Emin!" "Yeah, what?" "Cut it out!" "iso, Veysi, you bastards." "Just wait till I catch you!" "Stop it!" "If I fucking catch you...!" "Sons of bitches!" "I'll show you!" "Damn!" "Missed it again!" "Isn't it a bit too close for comfort?" "Closeness inspires love, which leads to Art." "How many girls have you tried that line on?" "Search for the answer in my eyes." "What a fucking stupid movie!" "Don't flip out on me!" "lt's bullshit!" "So don't watch it, idiot!" "How am I supposed to know it's bullshit without watching it?" "Idiot!" "Keep it down!" "Shut your faces and sit down!" "Hello!" "What a coincidence!" "You again." "Well, it's a public beach after all!" "I'll tell that lady you stole her car." "That's enough out of you!" "Go find yourself another beach!" "You've utterly ruined me!" "What's the big deal?" "Don't cry mother." "I'll do my duty and come back." "The movie made me cry." "What's the matter?" "Nothing, just hiccups." "Mother, please don't cry." "I've just been called up, that's all." "Mother, we all did it." "And I served 28 months." "Why so long?" "Never mind." "It's a bit complicated." "Weren't you caught with a woman?" "Some broad?" "That's no way to talk about a married woman." "She was married, too?" "Why'd you say she was married?" "I didn't." "You did!" "Cut it out." "Watch the movie!" "You too." "Mother!" "I told you, it's the movie." "What's there to cry about?" "They won't live happily ever after." "It's all over, and we're together again." "Till death do us part." "It's these false teeth, Mayor." "Food keeps getting stuck under them." "You've gotten old, Casim." "We'll be eating helva next year after your funeral service." "Why me?" "Maybe you'll die pimp." "I still have my own teeth, codger!" "Pimp!" "But there's only a couple of months between you." "No way!" "Old Casim was friends with my late uncle." "Fuck off!" "He's been dead for ten years!" "See?" "You've got one foot in the grave!" "You're like a fossil, Casim." "We'll put you in the museum if we get one." "No hard feelings. I was just joking along with the others." "Rifat." "If you've finished eating, go say goodbye to your friends." "Yes, sir." "Stay away from their mothers, though." "Don't worry, dad." "So, Rifat's doing his military service too." "Time sure flies. I was a private in Izmir and there was this officer who..." "Well, dear old Casim." "Izmir was part of the Ottoman Empire then, wasn't it?" "Empire?" "Turkey wasn't even a republic back then!" "Asiye!" "Hey, Asiye!" "Rifat." "What are you doing?" "Shhh." "Mother's photo!" "Go!" "Quick!" "I'm going away." "I'm going away." "I know." "You'll wait for me, won't you?" "I'll wait." "What should I get you from Ankara?" "What do you know about gifts?" "Some men even write poetry." "All you do is chase after a ball." "I don't chase after a ball. I'll be a football player one day." "God willing." "Don't start that again." "What's that?" "My scab's inside it." "Scab?" "Remember how I fell and skinned my knee when we first met?" "I saved the scab because it was our wound." "I know it's silly, but... I thought it'd be better than giving you a picture." "You might get bored of it." "But a scab is like a piece of my flesh." "It'll give you a pang every time you look at it." "is heart-of-stone Asiye crying?" "Why would I cry?" "I thing a scab's a silly gift for a girlfriend, too." "Mom's probably looking for me." "l'll write the minute I get there." "Fine." "What do you mean, fine?" "You know." "Fine." "Give me a kiss." "You know, I'm off to the army." "Not like that." "On the lips, like in the movies." "No way." "I won't leave until you do." "Don't then." "Don't eat the food over there." "I won't, mom." "If she could, she wouldn't let go of him until he was discharged." "Siti, the bus is leaving!" "Don't eat just anything." "You've got a sensitive stomach." "Have someone else try the food first." "Then eat it." "All right, mom." "May God be with you." "Look." "What do you think?" "That's what I got up to in Ankara." "The last time I went to the nightclub the owner said "Welcome, Fikri"." "Turns out he'd seen my name on my id bracelet." "I asked where Feri was." "I've got a babe there. I call her Feri cause she looks like the actress." "Her real name is Gulsen, but her friends call her Munevver." "And when we're alone I call her "lambchop"." "She's such a sweetie." "Hello, Engin." "Hi, Emin." "I brought your radio." "Does it work now?" "What do you mean?" "Has any radio escaped my healing hands?" "What kind of answer is that?" "What kind of question was that?" "How much do I owe you?" "Don't worry about it till later." "is that scumbag there in the shop?" "Where in Ankara is this nightclub?" "In Ulus." "Over by that statue." "You should see all the lights and glitter." "Real classy joint..." "What do you want, psycho?" "I want my money." "What money?" "Didn't I fix your radio last year?" "And didn't you tell me to come back later?" "Now fork it over!" "Think you can bully me, dickhead?" "Watch your mouth, Fikri!" "What are you talking about?" "Get out of here, fuck-face!" "Fikri, what do you want from the poor orphan?" "The bastard's cursing at me." "You started it!" "I fixed your radio." "Now pay up, faggot!" "Who're you calling faggot, pimp!" "Pimp yourself, you son of a bitch." "Stop it." "That's enough." "Go on, get out of here, Emin." "Maniac..." "See you later, Fikri." "Damn!" "My arm!" "Here's a list." "Wires, spools and stuff." "Make sure you don't forget anything." "This is no time for joking around." "I feel awful. I'm getting out of here." ""The Gangsters", showing tonight at the Lale Cinema." "Welcome, Mr. Mayor." "Give me your blessings, father." "Bless you, my son." "Goodbye." "The soldiers are leaving on the bus." "Our Rifat's on it, too." "They've called up all the young ones this time." "Why did they take so many this time around?" "You've got the wrong idea about me." "Really." "Try that number on some other girl." "When I'm in love, I feel it here." "And when I do there are no lies, no tricks." "I feel it with my heart and soul." "That bastard's been showing the same movie all week." "Cool!" "I wish it was an action movie." "Maybe there'll be some kissing action." "Shut up, you pervert." "That girl sleeps day and night." "Wake up and have some melon." "Huh?" "Want some melon rinds?" "No thanks, mother." "I adore you, I entreat you..." "Are you all right?" "Don't cry sonny." "Get down you little devils!" "Are they up on the roof again?" "Movies make you forget everything." "Didn't I tell you the kids shouldn't climb trees at night?" "What happened, dad?" "A lot of crap, that's what!" "All right. I'll have some now." "And didn't I say no one could watch Latif's movies?" "We don't go there." "We watch from here." "You may as well have gone on in!" "Hey, little devils, have some melon." "Hello." "Come in, Seyhmus." "I noticed you didn't get your melon tonight, Mayor." "This one's on me." "Thanks." "They've already bought one." "Oh, really?" "Keep this one for tomorrow, then." "Must have bought it from my boy." "Good night!" "Where'd you get this?" "Do we have to answer for everything we do?" "So you stole it, then?" "is the Mayor's family a pack of thieves?" "If I stole it was for the child." "I'll be the laughing stock of the town!" "Those you look down on are people of honor." "Go home!" "The film's over!" "I'm leaving, but only to return one day." "How's it going, iso, Veysi?" "Good night." "You electrocuted me!" "What's 'n your hand?" "Teasing me'll get you the shock of your life." "All that kissing and stuff is phony." "Watch what I'm gonna do to Crazy Emin." "Crazy Emin!" "Cut it out, you bastard!" "Maniac!" "So your boy's in the army." "It's no big deal." "He's so young. I wish it'd been Ahmet, not Rifat." "He's so helpless." "I wish they'd take Ahmet forever." "I wish I didn't have a son like him." "Rifat was my father's favorite." "He said Rifat would grow up to be a village head like him." "He said "Just like me."" "Nazmi, is Ankara so very far?" "Why do you put this flowerpot here?" "It's right in the middle of the road." "Of course I'll bump into it." "is there another way in?" "Stop!" "I heard something." "Never mind." "We're busy." "Slow down." "Wait for me!" "Cool!" "Why do stars shoot?" "I asked that once. lt's so crowded up there that some fall to earth." "Who'd you ask?" "A friend." "Why're you farting, you pansy!" "We're outside." "What's the big deal?" "It stinks just as much." "Don't cry my boy." "So are you little pests sleeping up on the roof?" "What's so funny?" "Don't cry, honey." "Gule!" "Nafiz!" "Go tell your father to get the bonesetter." "The poor thing broke his foot." "OK, mom." "Don't forget to put on your underwear." "How did you know?" "Come on." "Get going." "What's all the racket about?" "Yýlmaz broke his foot." "Which Yýlmaz?" "Remember your son?" "!" "What an idiot!" "Get out of my way." "You'd think I broke his foot." "Get up, Gule and make me breakfast!" "Esteemed citizens a surfeit of sand in the municipal mains... ..may lead to certain unavoidable obstruction of services." "Thank you for your restraint and patience." "What's he talking about?" "Water isn't running because the pipes are filled with sand." "What would life be without your entertaining announcements." "What a great mayor we have." "Water running through the streets but not through the pipes." "What a great job!" "It's not the Mayor's fault." "It's that bastard contractor." "Watch your mouth!" "Fikri's my cousin." "Well, I'm related to the Mayor." "Did I call the Mayor a bastard?" "You can't, because he isn't one." "And is Fikri a bastard?" "If he weren't your cousin, he'd be the biggest bastard around." "Now you're talking." "What's so funny?" "Fikri, you haven't done any work." "How can you ask for money?" "We all know that contractors occasionally get down to work." "You don't like the work but you like the money." "You and your team grab all contracts, but do nothing." "Mr. Mayor, those words of yours sure sting." "Can words sting an ox!" "What are insults to oxen?" "Why couldn't you lay a pipe in five years?" "We never get advances in time." "You waste them carousing around with women." "If I've spent so much as a penny on a woman, I'm no man." "We all know you're no man." "Mayor, you're addressing the grandson of Village Head Bedri!" "Bedri was a muledriver." "So you can't love animals and be village head?" "The late, great lover of mules." "You're wasting my time." "Get out!" "At least give me my advance." "Fikri!" "Don't expect any work to get done then." "Do you expect my team to work for free?" "Get the money back from your women and give it to the men, then." "What's this obsession with women?" "Have you been paid, Mr. Fikri?" "Fat chance!" "When I campaign for him, we get along." "When it comes to money, he starts squirming." "When he needs me it's all praises for my grandfather, for his wonderful mules." "I need money, not flattery!" "Give me a cigarette, Sezgin." "I don't have any." "Come on." "Let's see." "Ah!" "I thought I'd thrown that pack away." "Must have noticed that only... one or two were left and made plans to toss it." "That's how I forgot all about it." "If I had tossed it, I'd have forgotten it by now." "You'll have to wait for your kickback, my friend Sezgin." "See you." "Sezgin." "Yes, sir." "You're losing your hair." "It's just my high forehead." "Mr. Good-looking, huh?" "Mind your own business." "ls my dad in?" "Yeah." "Anyone with him?" "Nope." "Sezgin." "What?" "Never mind." "Come on, you looked at my head!" "You're thinning a bit on top." "Get lost." "Dad, Yýlmaz fell off the roof." "What's so funny about that?" "Nothing. I was just kidding around with Sezgin, that's why." "How's Yýlmaz?" "Mom said he broke his foot." "She wants you to get the bonesetter." "Okay, you can go." "If you have an errand for me... I wouldn't waste one on you." "When do you start work?" "Next month, God willing." "God willing." "Mr. Basri, the town administrator, is here to see you." "Send him in." "Yes, sir." "Sezgin, have you heard about some new shampoo?" "No, sir." "What is it like?" "You rub it on your ass and the hair there comes out on your head." "Bit wiry, though." "Our Mayor's such a wit." "Welcome, Basri." "Nothing welcome about it." "We're in big trouble!" "What happened?" "When there's some state job to get done, they pin it on me." "The governor asked me to oversee things personally." "Sorry to hear that, Basri." "Anyway, let's have some tea." "I'm sorry too." "But for you." "The Governor was so pleased to hear you'd take charge of it." "Where did he hear that?" "I told him." "Great." "What is it exactly?" "Receiving a delegation from Ankara." "What delegation?" "They're bringing a vizontele transmitter." "A what?" "You know. lt's in all the papers." "So we're finally getting one too?" "I knew you'd be thrilled about it." "Good!" "Mr. Mayor, what exactly is it?" "You know, we've all heard about it." "Radio with pictures." "I'll give you all the help my official capacity allows me." "What help?" "It's your job!" "Certainly!" "Assisting you is my duty!" "Goodbye." "Radio with pictures." "Movies in every home." "It will be the end of Latif." "Attention!" "Anyone selling goods on public property will be in big trouble!" "And don't say I didn't warn you first!" "Don't cry honey." "It's dislocated, not broken." "So, he's all right?" "Sure. lf he's careful today, he'll be on his feet tomorrow." "Bless you." "Let's bind it." "Many thanks, Saban." "What a great pair of glasses!" "They were my father's." "Now they're mine." "Will your kids wear them after you?" "God willing." "Goodbye." "I caught it!" "I caught it!" "Well, I sliced up the bread!" "Musto, Aykut!" "Let it go!" "Let what go?" "The bird, of course." "Think I'm an idiot?" "Come weed the garden." "What's wrong, Sýddýk?" "It's my tooth, Mr. Mayor. I'll have it pulled next month, God willing." "Come here. I'll wash you down." "is what I heard true?" "What did you hear?" "Spit it out slowly." "That you're taking a second wife." "Who told you that?" "That's not important." "is it true?" "It's just to help you with housework." "Help?" "There's something else that needs help working..." "What do you mean by that?" "Damn!" "There goes another." "You'll ruin me!" "Answer me, melon man." "I would, but they won't let me." "Take this melon home." "We'll talk it over tonight." "There's no need for that." "I got my answer!" "Look at that." "A perfect melon, too." "Don't worry." "We'll eat it." "Back to work, greedy bastards." "I want it finished by 7:00 this evening or there'll be..." "...a big crowd at the entrance." "Finish it by the evening." "Dad, what about my, you know?" "I'll take care of it son." "Get in the truck." "Get lost!" ""The Gangsters" is showing tonight!" ""The Gangsters" tonight at the Lale Cinema." "Turn it down a bit." "So, weeding, are you?" "Yeah." "Pulling up the bad plants so the good ones can flourish." "Don't you have any in your yard?" "No." "Right." "Yours are in the house." "Some weeds are tough to pull up." "They have deep roots." "So, we pull them out, roots and all." "l heard something, is it true?" "lf you heard it, it must be false." "I heard vizontele is coming." "Oh, that." "Aren't you happy about it?" "No problem." "Just checking." "Do you even know what it is?" "Sure. I saw one once in Istanbul." "Nothing like the cinema, huh." "Don't get too close." "We don't want any weeds in our garden." "Let's go, Veli." "We'll have a crowd for the Yýlmaz Güney movie tonight." "And keep an eye out for the rooftop freeloaders." "Nothing like the cinema, huh?" "If he's so worried, this vizontele must be a good thing." "Stop it." "Your mother'll see us." "No, she won't." "Nafiz!" "Coming mom." "What is it?" "Make a phone call for me." "There's no point." "They won't be able to connect us." "Calling Ankara isn't so easy." "Go on." "Just do it." "Hello, switchboard." "Hi, Salih." "This is Nafiz." "The mayor's son." "You were going to connect us to Ankara." "What happened?" "Hello!" "We can't even get through to the operator, let alone Ankara." "Salih!" "Haven't we helped you over the years?" "Connect me to my Rýfat!" "Dammit!" "It's not Salih's fault." "Hello, Salih." "Rifat." "Hello!" "It would be great with pictures." "Would you like some fruit?" "What's with the fruit?" "What are you shouting about?" "Just offering." "Don't!" "I'm pissed off enough as it is." "On the road to nowhere, heel broken, nails broken." "Hair messed up for 300 km. now!" "Did I assign you?" "Am I the general director?" "If you're not, why are you hitting on me?" "Hitting on you?" "Me?" "Isn't he after me, Cevat?" "Not exactly." "Maybe over interested is all." "Over interested?" "Come on, you're overdoing it a bit with the broad." "Broad?" "That's it!" "Shut up and turn that off." "I swear I'm about to kill myself." "What kind of an assignment is this for a lady?" "That Bünyamin bastard is responsible for all this." "I'm not about to sleep with just any old deputy director." "We already spent 4 extra days because the truck broke down." "By the way, I'm not staying an extra second in this godforsaken town!" "Aren't we going to set it up?" "No way!" "Give them directions and let them do it themselves." "Being exploited in a place like this!" "Pull over." "At least let me have some water." "What do you mean by "at least"?" "l mean, God give me patience." "Cheers." "Same to you!" "We wanted some water." "You're in the right place." "A fountain is the place for water." "is it far to the town center?" "Why are you asking?" "We don't get many questions like that." "We're from Ankara." "We brought a television transmitter." "Ah?" "What transmitter?" "Here sir." "We've got something better than water." "Not this early in the day." "We can pretend it's evening." "Tekin." "What's the hold up?" "Pass me that raki, brother." "That woman is such a bitch." "I'm about to kill her." "The guy she mentioned." "Bunyamin." "The deputy director." "His wife caught them in bed." "Now she says he's under her control." "More like she's under him all the time." "I sure feel better now." "Goodbye." "Some drinker." "He is. lsn't he?" "Attention!" "The delegation expected to arive from Ankara today is bringing us a vizontele transmitter." "What's keeping them, Mr. Mayor?" "They'll be here any minute, brother." "You should have made a speech." "What are you talking about?" "Of course you don't have to." "You can't make a speech every time a crowd gathers." "You'd have to speak every time three people got together." "Like you've nothing better to do." "Bring the microphone." "Yes, sir." "This is a great day in our town's history." "Why?" "Are we driving out the enemy or something?" "A very important delegation from Ankara is bringing us a vizontele, an example of the latest technology!" "What's coming?" "Vizontele." "What's that?" "l think I saw one in Ankara." "What does it do?" "l don't remember." "I was drunk." "My eyes were on the babe next to me." "Sure. I believe you." "l swear it's true!" "She was a singer!" "What's this machine Mr. Mayor?" "It's like radio with pictures." "What do you mean?" "Zeki Müren sings on the radio." "Right?" "Right." "With this, you can hear him and see him at the same time!" "Will he see us?" "I don't know about that." "What about if you're wearing your underwear?" "You wouldn't want the great Mr. Müren to see that." "And what if the prime minister appears on the news?" "Will we have to sit around the house wearing ties?" "Don't be ridiculous." "Can actors see you at the cinema?" "Can't they?" "No." "This will be like having a cinema in your own home." "But no tickets." "There they are." "Welcome to our town." "I'm the Mayor, Nazmi Doðan." "Go on." "Get the sacrificial lamb." "There is no need for that." "Why?" "Don't you eat meat?" "We can't stay long Mayor." "We're returning to Ankara immediately." "Now, if those gentlemen could just unload the device..." "Gentlemen!" "The device..." "At least come up and have a drink before dinner." "Thank you sir, but we'll be on our way." "There's no getting out of here so quickly." "It takes at least a year to get the right contacts for re-assignment to Ankara." "What do you mean by that?" "Just kidding, nothing personal." "Not my idea of a joke." "I got a bit carried away." "Tekin, cut the yakking!" "What yakking?" "She's such a maniac." "She may tired, not a maniac." "Would she care for a drink?" "Upper Ayrancý?" "What?" "I know Ankara very well." "Are you from Upper Ayrancý?" "No." "So it is Lower Ayrancý?" "No!" "That place with a park, then?" "No!" "My name is Fikri." "Must be all the travelling I guess." "What were you talking to her for?" "Me?" "She talked to me first." "Gave me her address in Ankara, so I could visit her." "Let me just jot it down." "This is how you hook it up." "Understand?" "Put the transmitter up on a high hilltop." "When you get a picture, set it there." "Good luck." "Hey, wait a minute." "What?" "How?" "Move over a bit lsmihal." "So I'll be sitting on the driver's lap?" "You'd think she never sat on a lap." "What was that?" "Nothing." "Just a joke." "Don't blow this way." "But you're smoking too." "I want my own smoke, not yours." "This is all your fault." "What can I do. lt's the state's job." "We'll find a way out of this." "What do we know about this vizontele thing?" "They just dumped it." "We need someone who understands these things." "Where can we we find someone like that?" "We've already got one." "Who?" "Emin." "Which Emin?" "Crazy Emin, the radio guy." "Get real!" "You can't be serious." "We can't let that maniac near it." "He knows all about radios." "This is just one with pictures." "Do you seriously think that nutcase can handle this?" "He can build a radio out of a shoe!" "Exactly." "A nutcase!" "Normal people wear shoes." "If anyone can do it, it's Emin." "There's no way I can help you with that." "Just take a look, Emin." "How can I help with that?" "And you've already got six daughters." "But she hasn't given me a son." "Just blow on her and pray." "This holy breath thing is just something people made up." "Your father was a holy man." "People call you crazy but I believe you're a holy man." "You got Seyid's boy walking." "My father was no holy man." "God forgive you." "And you smote so and Veysi." "That was just an electric shock!" "And I just made the boy a crutch." "You want one?" "Would you?" "Will it help me have a son?" "Leave me in peace!" "So much for neighborliness." "Come on, woman!" "My father a holy man?" "He was a bastard!" "Back then the governor had a daughter." "Leman." "She had hair clear down to here." "And when the wind blew she looked like a ballerina with a long cape." "She came to the match one day." "I broke out in a sweat even before it started." "Anyway, I caught a corner position and headed the ball into the goal!" "Everyone clapped." "I turned." "Leman was on her feet, cheering me." "How long was she in these parts?" "2 years." "She told me to visit her if I was ever in zmir." "And I did. 5 years later." "You found her?" "Yeah." "We had tea together." "Leman, me and her husband." "Remember what our teacher said about this place..." "Which teacher?" "Our literature teacher in high school." "What'd he say?" "He called it the capital city of disappointment." "What is this?" "It's a vizontele." "What does it do?" "It'll bring the world to our home." "What for?" "What do you mean?" "How will it do that?" "l don't know." "It's something like a moviehouse." "One in each home." "May God protect us!" "Mela Hüseyin said movies were sinful." "He says that about everything." "Repent." "You busy yourself with this but have no time for your son." "I haven't been able to talk to him even once." "He's in the army." "So what?" "We all served. I served four years." "Nafiz!" "Try to call him again." "The whole world right here." "Maybe Emin really is just the guy for this." "Mr." "Veli, when is the fight film?" "Get lost." "Wh... wh... what is it?" "They all call it "vizontele"." "But it's really called "television"." "Wh... what is it?" "It's the devil's work." "We don't show blasphemous movies at the cinema." "But this thing will be in everyone's house." "Who knows what it'll show?" "Do your religious duty." "Warn the people." "Bye!" "Would you like some tea?" "Ahmet!" "Come to the breakfast table, you drunk!" "I'm here dad." "What's the fuss?" "With the drinking and all, it's become a rare honour to see your face around here." "I drink now and then with friends, that's all." "Now and then?" "You don't even go to the office." "After all the strings I pulled." "Don't do this in front of the women!" "Oh." "So, you do give a damn about the women of the house?" "is that why we married you?" "Did you ask me anything about it then?" "Get up and get out!" "Now!" "Eat your food, child." "Nafiz." "Yes, father." "Get me Emin, the radio guy." "Crazy Emin?" "Go on, son!" "Come on, kids..." "Why are you taking them to religious classes?" "Repent, mayor." "Do you want them to grow up heathens?" "Your son went, and this devilish contraption arrived in his place." "It's a bad omen!" "You must get rid of it." "It will bring harm on us." "God in heaven protect us!" "Well, children." "Repeat after me." "All you do is eat, drink and crap." "Some of you never tumble." "Some of you think you're partridges." "You are tumblers!" "Some of you get away with two tumbles a day." "I won't name names here." "But that's finished!" "No more feed for non-tumblers." "You think I will tumble for you?" "No tumbles, no feed." "Go easy on the guys." "They're just birds after all." "What's up, good-for-nothing?" "My father sent for you." "What could the teacher want?" "He is the Mayor!" "What ever." "Mayor then." "He was my teacher once." "What does he want?" "Quit moping." "Have some more feed." "But I'm expecting tumbles tomorrow!" "Turn that wheel a little." "This one?" "How did you manage to build all these gadgets." "I learned from my master." "He asked me to hold a screwdriver for him one day." "And I never put it down again." "He didn't pay me, but he was a great man." "Stop, get out of the way!" "What's going on?" "Where are you going?" "Are you crazy?" "Where are you going?" "What are you doing?" "Darn, missed it again!" "Emin, what are you doing?" "That's my mom's favorite song." "I keep running up here to play it for her on the radio, but either the song is too short or the grave's too far." "Once the song started just as I was passing by." "But the battery ran out." "Then I made a battery that never runs out." "A battery that never runs out?" "So why does teacher want me?" "For the vizontele." "What's that?" "You haven't heard about the new gadget?" "What gadget?" "You should see the look on your face when I say gadget." "Get to the point?" "What gadget?" "No one knows for sure." "Radio with pictures." "Radio with pictures!" "So they finally made one?" "I'd thought of it." "Really." "Let's go." "That maniac's running off again!" "Where is it?" "Where is what?" "Vizontele." "Why ask me?" "Maybe the kids have it." "Don't try my patience." "I know you took it." "It's state property." "What are you trying to do to me?" "It's the devil's property!" "Says who?" "Mela?" "That's what he says." "What did he say?" ""lt's the dd... dd... dddevil's work"?" "God preserve us." "Where is it?" "It will bring disaster on us." "Send it back." "My hand's about to cause an accident." "Hi, Siti!" "Welcome, Emin." "What's that thing on your head?" "It's for my eyes." "Where is teacher?" "Welcome, Emin." "Thanks." "Where's the gadget?" "Siti?" "In the pantry, under the oven." "Hush child!" "What a beauty." "Just look at it." "I knew they'd made one one day." "So we'll set it up on a high spot?" "Can you manage?" "I'll have to dismantle it and take a look." "What?" "The vizontele." "What do you mean, dismantle it?" "Take off the cover and have a look inside." "Open up a gadget like this?" "Are you crazy?" "Most people say so." "So... the wave hits this at right angles." "Not like the radio." "I should kiss the hand of the guy who invented this." "Great job!" "They altered the radio to..." "You're driving me crazy!" "Can you do it or not?" "We'll put it back together, and see." "I assume you can do that." "I suppose I can." "Suppose?" "Maybe Basri was right." "Dad, can you step out for a minute?" "What is it?" "Look!" "One meter higher should do the trick." "At least one more meter." "Raising the wall so we can't watch." "Shameless bastard." "Worse than shameless." "You're the mayor." "Just shut it down." "I can't. lt'd be like punishing the people." "If we can set up this vizontele tomorrow he'll get what he deserves." "Exactly!" "Who needs moviehouses if we have vizontele!" "We'll have a ceremony." "Put on something decent." "So, isn't this all right?" "No!" "Haven't you got a jacket?" "Not with long sleeves." "I'll get you one then." "No, thanks teacher." "I'll get one myself." "What's up Yasar?" "Nothing." "How can nothing be up?" "is there such a thing as nothing?" "is Fikri around?" "Nope." "Fine. I saw him on my way here anyway." "We had a misunderstanding the other day, but he's not so bad." "When you said "nothing" you reminded me of something." "What's that?" "Do you know the tale of the vizier and the elephant?" "Yes." "The vizier and the ant?" "Yes." "Just the vizier?" "You couldn't have heard it, I just learned it." "I'll tell you about it." "One day the vizier..." "So, how are the great revolutionaries?" "Fine Emin." "How about you?" "You still haven't saved us." "Even we couldn't save you." "Come see the vizontele!" "We're having an opening ceremony soon." "If you're in charge..." "Where'd you get this suit?" "A friend gave it to me." "On the brink of war and look what they're busy with." "Which son of a bitch did this?" "Dad, they torn down the wall and smashed the bricks." "If they's just left us the bricks, we could have rebuild the wall." "I'm just explaining about the bricks." "What's up, snow man?" "Nice suit." "Going to a wedding?" "We're testing the vizontele today up on that hill." "Why spend money on something that's just going to melt away." "Can I help you?" "Mother, talk to me!" "About what?" "It was an accident." "All this over a picture?" "But it's my only picture." "Mom, I talked to dad." "What about?" "I've got good news for you." "He'll take you to the photographer!" "Hurry and get ready." "So, how did it happen?" "I told him how important it was for you." "And he went along with it?" "Well, I told him there were some new watches at the studio and that he could put one on for the picture." "He liked that." "I'll get dressed." "Hang these on the line." "I'm going to this vizontele thing." "Tell us when you're going to come." "Rifat, are you well?" "Do you have enough money?" "Do you have money?" "Nafiz, I wonder if you could, well, take me to the vizontele thing." "I miss you so much Rifat." "Sure, of course we'll go." "Rifat, don't hang up!" "Let's go." "What about the telephone?" "Come with me." "It's me, Asiye." "We're fine." "My parents are fine too." "How are you?" "Yes, me too." "What?" "Where is that?" "Where?" "So you think Nazmi did it?" "Did it or had it done." "It must be Siti. lt's just like her!" "What's the poor woman got to do with it?" "Why do you say that?" "What did I say?" "That "poor" woman." "We're all grandparents now, and you're still jealous of your sister!" "She's no sister of mine!" "My own sister asked at my wedding whose wedding it was!" "Made it seem like you wanted her." "Thirty years later you're still going on about it!" "You loved her too." "That's why you call her "poor" woman now." "Go find something better to do with yourself." "It still bothers you, doesn't it?" "Enough!" "Let's go see how the vizontele thing turns out." "Dad, what about that matter?" "You still haven't aranged things for the boy." "I will in good time!" "Levelled my wall, did they?" "Testing... testing..." "What are the good citizens up to?" "Get a load of the suit..." "Emin!" "What's the matter, Mr. Goldilocks?" "Give the mike to our Mayor." "Dear citizens." "We are gathered here today for a most historical event." "Someone asked what was historical about it." "I'll tell you." "Visitors always ask us:" "How can you live in a place like this?" "That's a tough question." "We have no choice but to love our homeland and there's no other way to find true happiness." "If you love this town it becomes the most beautiful spot in the world." "If you don't love the most beautiful spot in the world it is no longer beautiful." "Newspapers arrive here two days late." "By the time we hear something city folk have all forgotten about it." "Vizontele will end all that." "We'll see whatever they see in Istanbul." "And at the same time." "Vizontele will narrow the gap between our town and the world." "Everything will be closer." "May it be to the best for us all." "We're ready, teacher." "In the name of God..." "Look, it's a movie about a blizzard." "Emin?" "Looks like we'll be climbing another hill." "May it bring joy to our town." "Still snowing away." "It was so popular they made a sequel." "I think you can skip the speech today. I mean, no one..." "Turn it on." "Yes, sir." "Save the vizontele. lt's on fire... lf only you'd seen it." "Up in flames, smoke pouring out." "The Mayor's a relative of mine." "Now they're ribbing me too." "They call him "The Vizontele Mayor"." "Has a nice ring to it." "Get me some hot water, would you?" "I told him it would never work, but he wouldn't listen." "And I told him we should get a technician from Ankara." "He and Crazy Emin set the state's vizontele on fire." "How can I explain this to the governor?" "We'll probably see some real fiery shows on that thing." "You'll all vote for him again anyway." "Not a chance." "And two people were wounded they say." "So what are the two cleanest bears in town talking about?" "The vizontele fire." "It'll go on burning. I'm a movie man, myself. lt's something else." "Now, who was that tall actor?" "Tarýk Akan." "That's right." "He's not that tall." "Just comes up to here." "I saw him in Istanbul once." "That's movies for you." "There's one more thing." "I was walking in Beyoðlu..." "last year." "Who was that guy with the pencil line mustache." "Ayhan lsýk." "Of course you know nothing about Beyoðlu." "Who was the guy in "Tourist Omer"?" "Sadri Alýsýk." "Right." "He's got a thin mustache too." "Anyway, I yelled out "Tourist Omer" when I saw Ayhan lsýk." "He didn't even turn around." "So if you shout out "Ayhan lsýk" when you see Sadri Alýsýk probably won't look back either." "That's the weird thing about movies." "How are you Necati?" "Fine." "Good evening." "Welcome, Veli." "How are you my son?" "What the hell do you want?" "Dad sent me." "He says you have to buy tickets to watch the movie from the roof." "No more free loaders, he says." "Veli!" "They're my dad's orders." "Get the hell out of here." "No money for you!" "Well, I'll tell him that's what you said, then." "Good evening." "What does he want?" "He came here to sell tickets." "Oh, really" "You want money?" "Come and get it..." "Emin." "Don't even try it." "Just keep on watching." "I cooked stuffed vegetables in case you were hungry." "At this hour?" "Food's good at any time, darling." "I thought it might be my fault that you want a second wife." "Your fault?" "Why?" "I've let myself go. I've been wearing the same bra for two years." "I got a new one today." "Wanna see it?" "Your bra?" "Here?" "Yes, it's here." "I mean, you wanna show it to me here..." "What are you rascals up to?" "Shame on you!" "Go on home!" "Teacher!" "Come here for a second!" "What is it?" "The fire started because this overheated." "But Emin's got the answer." "What?" "Watch this..." "This fan will keep it cool." "But we need a battery for the fan." "Where can we get one right away?" "Turn it off." "What's wrong?" "It's all over." "What do you mean?" "I've made a fool of myself." "They're calling me "The Vizontele Mayor"." "Let's get a technician from Ankara." "We can't quit now." "We'll show them all." "Especially Latif." "I know what to do." "What?" "They said to put it high up on a hill." "We've been up on every hilltop around." "And it didn't work." "So we have to go higher." "Higher?" "The highest hill of all!" "The highest of all." "Are you out of your mind?" "All we need is a battery." "Look, I haven't gone crazy yet." "No one's ever been up there!" "Forget it." "I'm sending the vizontele to Ankara." "We're leaving this with you." "Take care of it!" "Father, are you going up Mount Artos?" "Got a problem with that?" "Mayor, have you lost your mind?" "How can you go up there at your age?" "Get down here!" "For God's sake, father!" "Shut up!" "Mr. Mayor, I really must tell you that you're too old." "And you're not." "What do you mean, sir?" "Hop in." "You're coming along." "I'm coming too?" "Get in, Goldilocks." "Stop it!" "May God give you wisdom!" "What else can I say?" "Going up Mount Artos." "He's really losing it." "What about that matter, dad?" "Don't start with me." "I said I'd handle it!" "You keep saying that, but..." "You didn't sell even one ticket." "Get in and get to work!" "The poor guy's lost his mind." "He's not fit to serve his mayor." "What's going on?" "The car doesn't work." "Dad, the battery is gone." "You must have left the headlights on." "It's really gone, dad!" "It's been stolen!" "Someone opened up the hood and stole it. lf they'd left the battery..." "What'd he say?" "Crazy Emin told me you said he could pick out any suit as payment for a radio." "As payment..." "That's right." "And you fell for it...?" "Yes." "Want some tea?" "I'll get it to you." "Go inside." "Stupid son of a bitch." "Keep your eyes glued to the vizontele, Semsi!" "Got that?" "If anything happens let us know." "Got it?" "Where did you get the battery?" "Never mind." "A friend gave it to me." "Mr. Mayor..." "Don't say a word." "This is a matter of honor for me." "I'll go all the way to the Himalayas if I have to." "What can I say?" "May God be with you." "Once we get a picture, we'll celebrate with a bonfire." "Yes, sir." "The mayor's gone bonkers." "He's going up the mountain." "Emin, you maniac!" "I'll be seeing you about the suit." "Actually, it does need some alterations." "We'll walk the rest of the way." "People keep talking about my father saying that he was some kind of holy man, that that makes me a holy man too." "Half of them think I'm crazy; half think I'm some kind of a mystic." "Are they the same?" "I know the real story." "He came here as a soldier and managed to convince everyone, including my mother that he had special healing powers." "That's how I was born." "A bit of mystical, heavy breathing and then off he went." "Being a bastard is not so bad." "Think of all the hassles I'd have if I had relatives." "If I had a brother he would only mean trouble." "You've a point there." "Isn't it time to find you a girl, Emin?" "No, thanks. I've got a sweetheart." "Who?" "She's in Denmark." "Where?" "lt's a foreign country." "What's she doing over there?" "She's from there." "How'd did you meet this girl?" "She came here as a tourist, I showed her around." "She wanted me to go to Denmark with her. I asked her who would look after my birds?" "You stayed here for your birds?" "They'll die if I go." "But when she insisted, I said I'd try to sort something out so I could go see her next summer..." "We had no idea you were working on international relations." "I was just showing her around." "Nothing special." "We were eating walnuts." "She loved me, and I loved her." "When did all this happen?" "While we were eating walnuts." "It's not my fault." "I just did what she did." "What are you doing?" "No Cristine, no." "When did she come here?" "5 years ago." "What's her name?" "Cristine." "Spelled with a 'c'." "I hope it all works out." "Let's go before it get's too late." "What are you staring at?" "It's turned off." "Get lost!" "It's the mayor's orders." "Your hair's thickening with each mile, Sezgin." "That inimitable sense of humor, Mr. Mayor..." "Dammit!" "Gone." "You'll have to ask me about your hair." "Yes, it's thinning." "Shut up." "Get a move on, Goldilocks." "Are you ready, Emin?" "It's nightfall." "Ready, teacher." "Help us God." "This is our last chance." "Look!" "A picture!" "Just a minute." "What's this?" "Persian." "Why?" "I think it's Iranian vizontele." "They must have one too." "Fuck!" "Excuse me, Mr. Mayor." "You took the word right out of my mouth." "Fuck!" "Well, Emin?" "Wasn't it supposed to work on the highest spot?" "I'm not sure." "Maybe if we go to..." "Stop it Emin, for God's sake!" "That's right, Emin." "It's your fault we're here." "Shut up, Goldilocks." "Or I'll send you back for the mirror." "I'm sorry, teacher." "What's going on?" "is it a wedding or something?" "Put out the fire!" "People will think that..." "Let it burn..." "Otherwise we'll freeze to death." "What happened?" "We got Iranian vizontele." "But you built a fire!" "We were cold." "A Traditional Black Sea Wedding..." "Mr. Mayor!" "It's on!" "Turkish vizontele is on!" "Look mom, it's on!" "Welcome, please come in..." "May it be for the best, Mr. Mayor." "Thank you." "There's no business tonight, dad." "They've all gone to watch the vizontele." "Don't worry." "They'll be back in a couple of days. lt's the novelty of it." "Turn it on, Mayor." "Right." "Here, by the grace of God..." "Turn it on, Emin." "Good evening." "Good evening." "The Turkish Armed Forces' naval and air intervention in Cyprus continues with overwhelming success." "Prime Minister Bülent Ecevit addressed the nation at a press conference this morning:" ""We are in Cyprus to promote peace, not to forment war." "We hope that our forces will not encounter resistance that will only lead to bloodshed." "We are there for peace, not for war." "We're also there to bring peace to the Greeks."" "The marine corps are successfully holding Girne, at great cost to enemy ranks." "Turkish forces have suffered 5 fatalities... 2 officers and 3 privates." "Lost in action are..." "Where is he?" "Who?" "My son, where is he?" "The general called today." "He told us to be proud of our boy, said he was a true hero." "They built him a tomb at the War Martyrs' Cemetery in Cyprus." "He said it." "One of the top brass." "Would he call just anyone?" "Our boy must have been great." "Teacher, Mother Siti says to..." "Don't do it ma'am." "It's not the gadget's fault..." "Grandfather..." "Father." "We're going to my father's house." "Where is everybody?" "The Brazil match is on TV." "They'll come after the game." "Shall I put the head facing that way?" "And a brand new Phillips television from the groom's uncle." "Everyone clap!" "Upon your feet, everyone!" "Turn the antenna some more." "Like this?" "Some more." "is it on?" "is it?" "Yes, we've got it."

""Even if you accept the belief that a high Trendex means a rising sales curve...."" "Mr." "Thornhill?" "Good night, Eddie." "Say hello to the missus." "We're not talking." ""My recommendation is still the same." ""Spread the good word in as many small time segments as we can." ""Let the opposition have their high ratings while we cry all the way to the bank." ""Let's colonize at the Colony one day next week for lunch." ""Let me hear from you, Sam." "Happy thoughts, etc...."" "You better walk me to the Plaza." "I didn't put a coat on." "Use your blood sugar, child." "Come on." "Next?" "Gretchen Sabinson." "Oh, yes." "Send her a box of candy from Blum's." "$10." "You know the kind." "Each piece wrapped in gold paper." "She'll think she's eating money." "Just tell her:" ""Darling, I count the days, the hours--"" "You sent that one last time." "I did?" "Put: "Something for your sweet tooth, baby, and all your other sweet parts! "" "I know." "Could we take a cab?" "For two blocks?" "You're late and I'm tired." "That's your trouble, Maggie, you don't eat properly." "Here." "Taxi." "I have a very sick woman here." "You don't mind, do you?" "Thank you very much." "Perfectly all right." "First stop, the Plaza." "Don't throw the flag." "Poor man." "I made him a happy man." "I made him feel like a good Samaritan." "He knew you were lying." "In the world of advertising, there's no such thing as a lie." "There's only "the expedient exaggeration." You ought to know that." "Do I look heavyish to you?" "What?" "I feel heavyish." "Put a note on my desk in the morning:" ""Think thin."" ""Think thin."" "Better make it the 59th Street entrance." "Okay." "Soon as you get back, call my mother." "Remind her we have theatre tickets for tonight." "Dinner at 21, 7:00." "I'll have had two martini's at the Oak Bar so she needn't bother to sniff my breath." "She doesn't do that." "Sure she does." "Like a bloodhound." "Bigelow at 10:30 is your first for tomorrow." "The Skin Glow rehearsal's at noon." "Then lunch with Falcon and his wife." "Where was that?" "Larry and Arnold's, 1 :00." "Will you check in later?" "Absolutely not." "Here, Driver." "Take this lady back where she belongs." "Right." "That ought to cover it." "Don't forget, call my mother right away." "I won't." "Good night, Mr. Thornhill." "Good night." "Wait, Maggie!" "You can't call her." "She's at Mrs." "Good evening, Mr. Thornhill." "I'm looking for Mr. Weltner and two other gentlemen." "Yes, sir." "Right this way." "Herman." "Hello, Roger." "I'm a little late." "Roger Thornhill." "Fanning Nelson." "We've gotten a head start here." "That won't last long." "I was saying that you may be slow in starting, but there's nobody faster." "What's the matter?" "You've got the fidgets." "I told my secretary to call Mother and I realized she won't be able to reach her." "Why not?" "She's playing bridge at one of her cronies'." "Your secretary?" "No." "My mother." "Mr. Kaplan?" "It's one of those new apartments, wet paint and no telephone yet." "Perhaps if I send her a telegram." "Mr. George Kaplan?" "Boy!" "Kaplan." "I have to send a wire." "Could you send it for me if I write it out for you?" "I'm not permitted to do that, sir, but if you'll follow me...." "Will you excuse me?" "Go right ahead." "Right through there, sir." "Thanks." "Thank you, sir." "What's that supposed to be?" "The car is waiting outside." "You'll walk between us saying nothing." "What are you talking about?" "Let's go." "Go where?" "Who...." "Who are you?" "Mere errand boys, carrying concealed weapons." "His is pointed at your heart, so, please, no errors of judgment, I beg of you." "What is this?" "A joke or something?" "Yes, a joke." "We'll laugh in the car." "Come." "This is ridiculous." "Don't tell me where we're going." "Surprise me." "I left some friends back there in the Oak Bar." "They'll think I'm awfully rude." "Could we stop off at a drugstore for a moment so that I could explain I'm being kidnapped?" "Well, that is what's happening, isn't it?" "Locked." "TOWNSEND" "Who's Townsend?" "Really?" "Interesting." "Where is he?" "Upstairs, dressing." "Tell him I'm here." "The dinner guests are expected." "Never mind that." "Say to him: "Kaplan."" "By the way, what are we having for dessert?" "Is anyone in the library?" "No." "This way." "You will wait here." "Don't hurry." "I'll catch up on my reading." "MR. LESTER TOWNSEND 169 BAYWOOD, GLEN COVE, N.Y." "Good evening." "Not what I expected." "A little taller a little more polished than the others." "I'm so glad you're pleased, Mr. Townsend." "But, I'm afraid, just as obvious." "What the devil is all this about?" "Why was I brought here?" "Games?" "Must we?" "Not that I mind a slight case of abduction, but I have tickets for the theatre tonight." "To a show I was looking forward to." "I get unreasonable about things like that." "With such expert play-acting, you make this very room a theatre." "Leonard, have you met our distinguished guest?" "He's a well-tailored one, isn't he?" "My secretary is a great admirer of your methods, Mr. Kaplan." "Elusiveness, however misguided" "Wait a minute." "Did you call me "Kaplan"?" "I know you're a man of many names, but I'll accept your current choice." "Current choice?" "My name is Roger Thornhill." "It's never been anything else." "Of course." "Your friends picked up the wrong package when they bundled me out here in the car." "Sit down, Mr. Kaplan." "I told you, I'm not Kaplan, whoever he is." "Excuse me." "Yes?" "The guests are here, dear." "Look after them." "I'll be with you in a few minutes." "Now, shall we get down to business?" "I'm all for that." "Simply, I'd like you to tell me how much you know of our arrangements and how you've come by this information." "I don't expect to get this for nothing." "Of course not." "Don't misunderstand." "I don't expect you to fall in with the suggestion but the least I can do is afford you the opportunity of surviving the evening." "What is that supposed to mean?" "Why don't you surprise me, Mr. Kaplan, and say yes?" "I've told you" "We know where you're headed for." "I know where I'm headed." "The Winter Garden Theatre in New York." "And I think I'd better get going." "Townsend, you're making a serious mistake." "This is not going to lead to a very happy conclusion, Mr. Kaplan." "I'm not Kaplan!" "I do wish you would reconsider." "We also know your contact in Pittsburgh since Jason committed suicide." "What contact?" "I've never been in Pittsburgh." "On June 16, you checked into the Sherwyn Hotel in Pittsburgh as Mr. George Kaplan of Berkeley, California." "A week later, you registered at the Benjamin Franklin Hotel in Philadelphia as Mr. George Kaplan of Pittsburgh." "On August 11, you stayed at the Statler in Boston." "On August 29, George Kaplan of Boston registered at the Whittier in Detroit." "At present, you are registered in Room 796 at the Plaza Hotel in New York as Mr. George Kaplan of Detroit." "In two days, you are due at the Ambassador East in Chicago." "And then at the Sheraton-Johnson Hotel in Rapid City, South Dakota." "Not me!" "There's no sense in maintaining that you are deceiving us any more than we are deceiving you." "I suppose it wouldn't do any good to show you ID cards a driver's license, things like that?" "They provide you with such good ones." "It's getting late." "I have guests." "Do you intend to cooperate with us?" "I'd like a simple yes or no." "A simple no." "For the simple reason that I simply don't know what you're talking about." "Give Mr. Kaplan a drink, Leonard." "A pleasant journey, sir." "Scotch?" "Rye?" "Bourbon?" "Vodka?" "Nothing." "I'll take a quick ride back to town." "That has been arranged." "But first, a libation." "Bourbon!" "You drink it." "I've had enough stimulation for one day." "It'll be easier if you take this yourself." "Otherwise, we'll have to insist." "Cheers!" "Don't worry about me." "I'll take the bus." "Thanks for the lift." "I want this man examined for driving while intoxicated." "Really?" "You see, they tried to kill me." "He won't listen to me." "In a big house." "They tried to kill me." "All right." "Let's just go inside." "I don't want to go inside." "Somebody call the police." "Come on." "Come on now." "Okay." "Sit down." "I don't want to sit." "Perfectly all right." "See?" "We'll get 'em." "We'll throw the book at them." "Assault and kidnapping." "Assault with a gun and a bourbon and a sports car." "We'll get 'em." "You'll be fine after a good night's sleep." "We got a nice cell all made up." "I don't want a cell." "I want a policeman." "The car was just reported stolen." "A Mrs. Babson up on Twining Road." "I got to call someone." "Where's the phone?" "You're allowed one call." "Over here." "Thanks." "You better make it your lawyer." "Butterfield 8-1-0-9-8." "What am I, a telephone operator?" "Butterfield 8-1-0-9-8." "Just a minute, please." "Here." "Thank you." "Hello, Mother?" "Mother, this is your son, Roger Thornhill." "Wait a minute, I'll find out." "Where am I?" "Glen Cove Police Station." "Glen Cove Police Station." "No, Mother, I have not been drinking." "No, these two men, they poured a whole bottle of bourbon into me." "No, they didn't give me a chaser." "Come on, let's go." "Wait, I'm not finished yet." "Yes, you are." "Come on." "Mother, I got to go now." "Get my lawyer right away and come and bail me out." "Tomorrow morning, tell her." "Tomorrow morning, he says." "I don't know." "I'll ask him." "She wants to know who says." "Sergeant Emil Klinger." "Sergeant Emil...." "Emil?" "Sergeant Emil Klinger." "No." "I didn't believe it either." "I'm all right, Mother." "Good night." "That was Mother." "Let's go." "Here's your man, Doctor." "What's your name?" "Roger Thornhill." "Stick out your tongue and say: "ah."" "You better move back." "Have you been drinking?" "Doctor, I am gassed." "What were you drinking?" "Well, bourbon." "See, these two fellas" "How much would you say you drank?" "What?" "How much would you say you drank?" "About this much." "Mr. Thornhill, my opinion is that you are definitely intoxicated." "No question about it." "I won't ask your permission to draw blood." "How disgusting!" ""You may refuse to permit a blood test to be made..." ""...but if you do, your license will be revoked."" "It was at this point that Mr. Thornhill succeeded in escaping from his would-be assassins, and when they gave chase he, naturally, had to drive as best he could under the circumstances." "How long have you known your client?" "Seven years, Your Honor." "Do you know him to be a reasonable man?" "Absolutely." "Mother!" "Do you believe there is some credence to this story?" "Credence!" "Yes, Your Honor." "If my client says this is what happened I'm certain it must've happened." "Damn right." "I want this turned over to the County Detectives for investigation." "Call them and have them come here immediately." "Right, Your Honor." "Counselor, I'm going to set this over for final disposition tomorrow at 7:30 p.m." "I expect you and the defendant to be here, ready to go to trial." "In the meantime, the County Detectives'll determine if his story has any basis in fact." ""Basis in fact"?" "If I were brought in dead, you still wouldn't believe" "Wait a minute." "After all, Your Honor, would I make up such a story?" "That is precisely what were intending to find out, Mr. Thornhill." "Remember me?" "Yes, sir." "Good." "Is Mr. Townsend at home?" "No, I'm sorry he's left for the day." "Mrs. Townsend?" "Who shall I say is calling?" "County Detectives." "Come in, please." "This way, please." "This is the room." "I'll call Madam." "You do that." "Here's the sofa where they held me down." "They spilled bourbon all over it." "I'll show you the stains." "Somebody must've cleaned them off." "This is the cabinet where they keep the liquor." "Scotch, gin, vodka...." "And bourbon." "I remember when it used to come in bottles." "Dear, we were so worried about you!" "Did you get home all right?" "Of course you did." "Let me look at you." "A little pink-eyed, but aren't we all?" "It was a dull party." "You didn't miss a thing." "I want you all to know, I never saw this woman before last night." "Mrs. Townsend, I'm Capt. Junket of the Nassau County Detectives." "This is Lt. Harding." "You haven't gotten into trouble, Roger?" "Stop calling me Roger." "Has he gotten into trouble?" "Mr. Thornhill was picked up last night driving under the influence of alcohol incidentally, in a stolen car..." "Stolen car!" "...belonging to Mrs. Babson of Twining Road." "Roger, you said you were going to call a cab." "You didn't borrow Laura's Mercedes?" "No, I didn't borrow Laura's Mercedes!" "Mr. Thornhill has told us that he was brought here against his will last night and forcibly intoxicated by some friends of your husband and set out on the road." "Do you know anything about this?" "Roger was a bit tipsy when he arrived here by cab for dinner." "She's lying." "And I'm afraid he became even worse as the evening wore on." "Finally, he told us he had to go home to sleep it off." "I knew I should've served dinner earlier." "What a performance!" "Mrs. Townsend, does the name George Kaplan mean anything to you?" "George Kaplan?" "No." "I didn't think so." "Where's her husband?" "He's the one you should be questioning." "Is there any place he can be reached?" "Yes." "The United Nations." "He's addressing the General Assembly this afternoon." "All right." "So he's addressing the General Assembly." "Sorry we had to bother you." "No bother at all." "Now, wait a minute." "Do you want to get in touch with my husband, Captain?" "No, Mrs. Townsend, that won't be necessary." "Do you mean you're not going to do any more about this?" "Pay the two dollars." "Goodbye." "I don't see why you want me along." "You lend a certain air of respectability." "Don't be sarcastic, Roger." "There you are, dear." "Park yourself there." "Well, here it goes." "Hello, Operator." "Have you got a George Kaplan staying here?" "That's right." "You have?" "Room 796." "Ring it, will you please?" "You see?" "I see." "I hope he clears up this silly business." "You're ruining my whole day." "Did he leave word when he'd be back?" "Really?" "Thank you." "That's odd." "He hasn't answered his telephone in two days." "Maybe he got locked in the bathroom." "Mother, do me a favor, will you?" "Put on that innocent look you do so well and go to the desk and get the key to 796." "I wouldn't do such a thing!" "$10?" "Not for all the money in the world." "$50?" "Roger, you are disgraceful." "Car theft, drunk driving, assaulting an officer, lying to a judge and now, house-breaking." "No, hotel-breaking." "There's a difference." "Of five to ten years." "Just a minute, please." "Will you be wanting me to change your bedding, sir?" "Yes." "Well, but not right now." "I mention it, because the bed doesn't seem like it's been slept in and I was wondering if I ought to change the linens." "Thank you for your interest." "Come on." "She seemed to think I'm Kaplan." "I wonder if I look like Kaplan." "Look who's here." "Who?" "Where?" "Our friend who's assembling the General Assembly this afternoon." "Roger, I think we should go." "Don't be nervous." "I'm not." "I'll be late for the bridge club." "Good." "You'll lose less than usual." "Bulletin, Kaplan has dandruff." "In that case, I think we should leave." "Too late." "You rang for me, sir?" "Yes." "Come in for a moment." "What's your name?" "Elsie, sir." "Do you know who I am?" "You're Mr. Kaplan." "When did you first see me?" "Outside the door." "Out in the hall a couple of minutes ago." "Don't you remember?" "Is that the first time you laid eyes on me?" "Can I help it if you're never around, Mr. Kaplan?" "Then how do you know I'm Mr. Kaplan?" "What?" "How do you know I'm Mr. Kaplan?" "Of course you are." "This is Room 796, isn't it?" "So, you're the gentleman in Room 796, aren't you?" "All right, Elsie, thanks." "Will that be all, sir?" "For the time being, yes." "Valet." "Yes, come in." "Should I hang it in the closet, Mr. Kaplan?" "Yes, please." "Tell me...." "What time did I give you that suit?" "Last night." "Around 6:00." "Did I give it to you personally?" "Personally?" "No." "You called down on the phone and described the suit to me." "Said it would be hanging in your closet." "Like you always do." "Anything wrong?" "No, I'm just curious." "Here." "Thanks." "Thank you." "Nice to meet you, Mr. Kaplan." "Isn't that the damnedest thing?" "I'm beginning to think that no one in the hotel has actually seen Kaplan." "Maybe he has his suits mended by invisible weavers." "Let me see something." "I don't think that one does anything for you." "Now, that's much better." "Obviously they've mistaken me for a much shorter man." "Should I?" "Certainly not." "Hold that." "It's good to find you in, Mr. Kaplan." "Who is this?" "We met only last night and still you do not recognize my voice." "I should feel offended." "Yes, I know who you are and I'm not Mr. Kaplan." "Of course not." "You answer his telephone, you live in his hotel room and yet you are not Mr. Kaplan." "Nevertheless, we are pleased to find you in." "Now wait...." "Operator?" "Operator, this is Mr. Thorn...." "Kaplan in 796." "Where did that call come from?" "From the outside or from the lobby?" "Just a minute." "I'll see." "Hurry, please." "Who was it?" "One of the men who tried to kill me last night." "We're back to that one, are we?" "That call was made from the lobby, sir." "It was?" "They're probably on their way up here." "Let's get out of here." "I think I'd like to meet these killers." "You gentlemen aren't really trying to kill my son, are you?" "Lobby, please." "Watch your step." "Gentlemen, please." "Ladies first." "Come along, ladies." "That's right." "Come along." "Good." "Roger, will you be home for dinner?" "Where to?" "I don't know." "Just keep going." "Take me to the United Nations." "Right." "General Assembly Building." "Right." "I'm being followed." "Can you do anything?" "Yes, I can." "Do it." "May I help you?" "Yes, please." "Where will I find Mr. Lester Townsend?" "Mr. Lester Townsend of UNIPO?" "Did you have an appointment, sir?" "Well, yes." "He expects me." "Your name, please?" "My name?" "Yes, please." "Kaplan." "George Kaplan." "One moment, please." "Wait for me at the corner of 47th." "If you'd give this to one of the attendants in the public lounge, she'll page him." "Thank you very much." "You're welcome, Mr. Kaplan." "Page Mr. Lester Townsend, please?" "Certainly, Mr. Kaplan." "Mr. Townsend of UNIPO." "Mr. Townsend of UNIPO." "Please call at the communications desk of the Public Lounge." "You paged me?" "Mr." "Kaplan?" "Yes." "You wanted to see Mr. Townsend." "This is Mr. Townsend." "How do you do, Mr. Kaplan?" "This isn't Mr. Townsend." "Yes, it is." "There must be some mistake." "Mr. Lester Townsend?" "That's me." "What can I do for you?" "Are you the Townsend who lives in Glen Cove?" "That's right." "Are we neighbors?" "A large, red-brick house with a curved, tree-lined driveway?" "That's the one." "Were you at home last night?" "You mean in Glen Cove?" "Yes." "I've been staying in my apartment in town for the last month." "I always do when we're in session here." "What about Mrs. Townsend?" "My wife has been dead for many years." "Mr. Kaplan, what's this all about?" "Who are those people living in your house?" "What people?" "The house is completely closed up." "There's just a gardener and his wife living on the grounds." "Now, Mr. Kaplan, tell me who you are and what you want." "Do you know this man?" "Look!" "He's got a knife!" "Look out!" "Listen to me." "I had nothing to do with this." "Call the police." "Don't come any nearer!" "Get back!" "UNITED STATES INTELLIGENCE AGENCY" ""The photograph has been identified as that of Roger Thornhill..." ""...a Manhattan advertising executive, indicating that the name George Kaplan..." ""...which he gave to an attendant in the General Assembly Building..." ""...was false." ""A possible motive for the slaying was suggested by the discovery..." ""...that earlier today, Thornhill appeared in a Glen Cove police court..." ""...charged with drunk driving with a stolen car..." ""...and in his defense he charged that the murder victim, Mr. Townsend..." ""...had tried to kill him the night before."" "Brother!" "What about that?" "Does anyone know this Thornhill?" "No, not me." "Never heard of him." "Professor?" "Apparently, the poor sucker got mistaken for George Kaplan." "How could he be mistaken for George Kaplan when he doesn't even exist?" "Don't ask me how it happened, but obviously it happened." "Vandamm's men must have grabbed him and tried to put him away using Lester Townsend's house." "And the unsuspecting Townsend winds up with a stray knife in his back." "C'est la guerre." "It's so horribly sad." "Why is it I feel like laughing?" "What are we going to do?" "Do?" "About Mr. Thornhill?" "We...do nothing!" "Nothing?" "That's right." "Nothing." "We could congratulate ourselves on a marvelous stroke of good fortune." "Our non-existent decoy, George Kaplan, created to divert suspicion from our actual agent, has fortuitously become a live decoy." "Yes, Professor." "How long do you think he'll stay alive?" "That's his problem." "What Mrs. Finley means" "I know what she means." "We can't sit back calmly and wait to see who kills him first!" "Vandamm and company or the police?" "What can we do to save him without endangering our own agent?" "Aren't we being just a wee bit callous?" "No, my dear woman, we're not being callous." "We didn't invent our non-existent man and give him the name of George Kaplan establish elaborate behavior patterns for him move his prop belongings in and out of hotel rooms, for our private amusement." "We created George Kaplan and labored successfully to convince Vandamm that this was our agent hot on his trail for a desperately important reason." "Nobody's denying that!" "Very well, then." "If we make the slightest move to suggest there's no such agent as George Kaplan give any hint to Vandamm he's pursuing a decoy instead of our own agent then our agent, working right under Vandamm's very nose will immediately face suspicion, exposure and assassination." "Like the two others who went before." "Goodbye, Mr. Thornhill, wherever you are." "Train number 25 the 20th Century Limited due to leave in 6:00 p.m. for Chicago...." "Yes, dear." "I know." "Now, listen to me, Mother, I called the Plaza." "Kaplan checked out and went to the Ambassador East in Chicago." "That's why I'm" "I can't go to the police." "At least not yet." "You saw the newspapers." "My fingerprints are on the knife." "I'm a car thief, a drunk driver, and a murderer." "I wouldn't have a chance." "I won't have, until I find George Kaplan who obviously knows what this is about." "No, the train." "It's safer." "Because there's no place to hide on a plane if anyone should recognize me." "You want me to jump off a moving plane?" "Well, thank you so much, Mother." "Goodbye." "MANHUNT ON FOR U. N. KILLER" "Give me a bedroom on the 20th Century, please." "It's leaving in five minutes." "I know." "Will you make it snappy?" "I think they're all sold out." "Sold out?" "You can always go coach." "No, I can't do that." "What time is the next train?" "Nothing till 10:00." "You're in a hurry, huh?" "Could you call them and see what they have?" "Something wrong with your eyes?" "Yes, they're sensitive to questions." "Will you call them?" "Sure." "Sure." "Don't go away!" "He's at Window 15, upper level." "Hurry." "You're in luck, mister." "Ticket?" "I'm just seeing some friends off." "I have to know their names." "Come here!" "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "My fault." "Sorry." "He went that way." "I think he got off." "All aboard!" "Thank you." "Quite all right." "Seven parking tickets." "Good evening, sir." "One?" "Please." "A cocktail before dinner?" "Yes, please." "A Gibson." "Right away." "Here we are again." "Yes." "You recommend anything?" "The brook trout." "A little "trouty" but quite good." "Sold." ""Brook..." ""...trout."" "There you are." "Yes, sir." "I know." "I look vaguely familiar." "Yes." "You feel you've seen me somewhere before." "I have that effect on people." "It's something about my face." "It's a nice face." "You think so?" "I wouldn't say it if I didn't." "Oh, you're that type." "What type?" "Honest." "Not really." "Good." "Because honest women frighten me." "Why?" "Somehow they seem to put me at a disadvantage." "Because you're not honest with them?" "Exactly." "Like that business about the seven parking tickets?" "What I mean is, the moment I meet an attractive woman I have to start pretending I've no desire to make love to her." "What makes you think you have to conceal it?" "She might find the idea objectionable." "Then again, she might not." "Think how lucky I am to have been seated here." "Luck had nothing to do with it." "Fate?" "I tipped the steward $5 to seat you here if you should come in." "Is that a proposition?" "I never discuss love on an empty stomach." "You've already eaten." "But you haven't." "Don't you think it's time we were introduced?" "I'm Eve Kendall." "I'm 26 and unmarried." "Now you know everything." "What do you do besides lure men to their doom on the 20th Century Limited?" "I'm an industrial designer." "Jack Phillips." "Western sales manager for Kingby Electronics." "No, you're not." "You're Roger Thornhill of Madison Avenue and you're wanted for murder on every front page in America." "Don't be so modest." "Don't worry." "I won't say a word." "How come?" "I told you." "It's a nice face." "Is that the only reason?" "It's going to be a long night." "True." "I don't particularly like the book I've started." "You know what I mean?" "Let me think." "I know exactly what you mean." "R.O.T." "That's my trademark." "R.O.T." "Roger O. Thornhill." "What does the "O" stand for?" "Nothing." "I'd invite you to my bedroom if I had a bedroom." "A roomette?" "Nothing, not even a ticket." "I've been playing hide-and-seek ever since the train left New York." "How awkward for you." "Yes, isn't it?" "No place to sleep." "I have a large drawing-room all to myself." "That doesn't seem quite fair." "Drawing-room E." "Car 3901 ." "Such a nice number." "It's easy to remember." "3901 ." "See?" "No luggage." "So?" "You wouldn't happen to have an extra pair of pajamas, would you?" "Wouldn't I?" "I wouldn't order any dessert if I were you." "I get the message." "That isn't exactly what I meant." "The train seems to be making an unscheduled stop." "I saw two men get out of a police car as we pulled into the station." "They weren't smiling." "You better go out and tell those police to hurry." "Patience is a virtue." "So is breathing." "Just lie still." "Have you got any olive oil?" "Olive oil?" "I want to be packed in olive oil if I'm going to be a sardine." "Come in." "Who are you?" "State Police." "Your name please?" "Eve Kendall." "Is anything wrong?" "There was a man at your table tonight in the dining car." "Yes." "Friend of yours?" "I never saw him before." "Is this the man?" "Yes, I think so." "It's not a very clear picture." "It's a wire-photo." "We just got it from the New York police." "Police?" "He's wanted for murder." "Good heavens, no!" "The steward said you left the dining car together." "We might have happened to leave at the same time but not together." "What did you two talk about?" "Talk about?" "The waiter said you were getting along fine with this Thornhill." "Is that his name?" "Thornhill?" "He didn't tell you?" "He didn't tell me anything." "All we did was chat about different kinds of food train travel versus plane travel, that sort of thing." "Rather innocuous, I must say, considering he was a fugitive from justice." "Who did he kill?" "He didn't say where he was going?" "No." "I assumed Chicago." "Perhaps he got off when you got on?" "If you happen to see him again, Miss..." "Kendall." "...will you let us know?" "I'm going to bed and I'll lock my door." "I doubt if I'll see anybody else tonight." "In case you do, we'll be in the observation car at the rear of the train." "It's comforting to know that." "Good night." "Still breathing?" "Either hurry up or get me a snorkel." "I'm looking for the can opener I stole from the porter." "Hello, there." "Hello." "Tell me, why are you so good to me?" "Shall I climb up and tell you why?" "I've been thinking it's not safe for you to roam Chicago looking for this George Kaplan you've been telling me about." "You'll be picked up by the police the moment you show your face." "It's such a nice face, too." "Don't you think it'd be a better idea if you stayed in my hotel room while I located him for you and brought him to you?" "I can't let you get involved." "It's too dangerous." "I'm a big girl." "Yeah, and in all the right places, too." "You know, this is ridiculous." "You know that, don't you?" "Yes." "I mean, we've hardly met." "That's right." "How do I know you aren't a murderer?" "You don't." "Maybe you're planning to murder me, right here, tonight." "Shall I?" "Please do." "Beats flying, doesn't it?" "We should stop." "Immediately." "I ought to know more about you." "What more could you know?" "You're an advertising man, that's all I know." "That's right." "The train's a little unsteady." "Who isn't?" "What else do you know?" "You've got taste in clothes, taste in food...." "And taste in women." "I like your flavor." "You're very clever with words." "You can probably make them do anything for you." "Sell people things they don't need make women who don't know you fall in love with you." "I'm beginning to think I'm underpaid." "Look out." "Don't bother with the washroom." "Yes, ma'am." "By the way, I found this on the floor." "Does it belong to you?" "Yes, ma'am." "I've been looking for it." "I'll wait outside." "Thank you." "Thank you, Porter." "Thank you, ma'am." "Good night now." "Good night." "Come out, come out, wherever you are." "The porter." "So I see." "Where were we?" "Here." "Nice of him to have opened the bed." "Only one bed." "That's a good omen, don't you think?" "Wonderful." "Do you know what that means?" "What?" "Tell me." "It means you'll sleep on the floor." "A message from the lady in 3901 ." "What do I do with him in the morning?" "Eve." "You keep walking." "I'll catch up." "Yes, ma'am." "Anything to report?" "Yes." "I had a fine night's sleep." "I mean, have you seen the man we're looking for?" "Mr. Thornycroft?" "Thornhill." "No, no." "I'm awfully sorry." "But good luck to you both." "How are we doing?" "I may collapse at any moment." "Not yet." "First we have to run the gauntlet." "Look." "I'm accustomed to having a load on, but what have you got in these bags?" "Bowling balls, naturally." "Oh, naturally." "Which one of these has my suit in it?" "The small one underneath your right arm." "Thanks." "That ought to do the suit a lot of good." "I'm sure Mr. Kaplan won't mind a few wrinkles." "Yeah, if he's still there." "What time is it?" "9:10." "9:10!" "He may have left his hotel room by now." "I'll call him for you as soon as we get inside the station." "Thank you." "I can do it." "A redcap in a phone booth?" "Slightly suspicious." "All right." "Do you know what you'll tell him?" "You want to see him right away." "Terribly urgent." "Matter of life and death." "No explanations." "Right." "While I'm calling, you can change your clothes." "Where do you propose I do that?" "In Marshall Field's window?" "I sort of had the men's room in mind." "Did you, now?" "You're the smartest girl I ever spent the night with on a train." "I think we made it." "Where did he go?" "Which way did he go?" "Where did he go?" "I don't know." "He took my clothes." "He went up that way." "What took you so long?" "I have a big face." "Small razor." "Tell me, did you get Kaplan?" "Yes." "Fine." "What did he say?" "He'll see you but not at the hotel under any circumstances." "He'll see you on the outside." "Where?" "When?" "I've got it all written down for you." "Thanks." "Take the Greyhound Bus that leaves Chicago for Indianapolis at 2:00 and ask the driver to let you off at Prairie Stop, Highway 41 ." "Prairie Stop, Highway 41 ." "Good." "It's about an hour-and-a-half's drive from Chicago." "Fine." "I'll rent a car." "No car." "Mr. Kaplan said bus." "He wants to be sure you're alone." "All right." "What'll I do when I get there?" "Just wait beside the road." "He'll be there at 3:30." "How will I know him?" "He'll know you." "You made the Chicago papers, too." "Have you set your watch for Central time?" "Yes, I did that." "Thanks." "What's the matter?" "Matter?" "Yes, you seem...." "I don't know." "You seem tense." "You better go before the police run out of red caps." "We'll see each other again, won't we?" "Sometime, I'm sure." "I never had a moment to thank you properly." "Please go." "But where will I find you?" "I've got to pick up my bags now." "Yes." "These are the checks for the large cases." "Wait a minute." "Please." "They're coming." "Hot day." "I've seen worse." "Are you supposed to be meeting someone here?" "I'm waiting for the bus." "It's due any minute." "Some of them crop-duster pilots get rich if they live long enough." "Then your name isn't Kaplan?" "Can't say it is, 'cause it ain't." "Here she comes." "Right on time." "That's funny." "What?" "That plane's dusting crops where there ain't no crops." "Get out of here!" "The other tank may blow!" "What happened?" "Come back!" "Come back!" "Come back!" "Could you let me have Mr. George Kaplan's room number, please?" "Kaplan?" "I think he checked out." "Checked out?" "That's right." "He checked out at 7:10 this morning." "7:10?" "Are you sure?" "Yes." "He left a forwarding address." "Hotel Sheraton-Johnson, Rapid City, South Dakota." "7:10?" "Then how come I got a message from him at 9:00...." "What's that?" "Nothing." "Sorry to bother you again." "Miss Eve Kendall is expecting me." "She's in room four-something." "I've forgotten the number." "Would you mind?" "She's in 463." "Yes, that's right." "Thanks." "Hello." "Surprised?" "Yes." "No getting rid of me, is there?" "I could use a drink." "I have some scotch." "With water." "No ice." "Two Die As Crop-Duster Plane Crashes Craft Hits Oil Tanker, Drivers Escape" "How did it go today?" "The meeting with Kaplan?" "He didn't show up." "It's funny, isn't it?" "Why funny?" "After all those explicit directions he gave you on the phone." "Maybe I copied them down wrong." "I don't think you got them wrong." "I think you sent me to the right place." "Why don't you call him back again and see what happened?" "I did." "He checked out." "Went to South Dakota." "South Dakota?" "Rapid City." "What are you going to do next?" "I haven't made my mind up yet." "It may depend on you." "On me?" "Sure." "You're my little helper, aren't you?" "Thank you." "To us." "To a long and lasting friendship." "Meaning, from now on, I'm not going to let you out of my sight, sweetheart." "I'm afraid you'll have to." "Oh, no." "I do have plans of my own, you know." "And you do have problems." "Wouldn't it be nice if my problems and your plans were somehow connected?" "Then we could always stay close to each other and not have to go in separate directions." "Togetherness." "You know what I mean?" "Go ahead, it can't be for me." "No, not yet." "I'm not ready." "What time?" "I'll meet you." "What's the address?" "Yes." "Goodbye." "Business?" "Yes." "Industrial designing business?" "All work and no play." "You should be enjoying yourself tonight instead of taking phone calls from clients." "What about having dinner with me?" "You can't afford to be seen anyplace." "Let's have it up here." "Nice and cozy." "No, I...." "I can't." "I insist." "I want you to do a favor for me." "A big, big favor." "Name it." "I want you to leave right now." "Stay far away from me and don't come near me again." "We're not going to get involved." "Last night was last night and that's all there was." "That's all there is." "There won't be anything more between us." "So, please...." "Goodbye." "Good luck." "No conversation." "Just leave." "Right away?" "Yes." "No questions asked?" "Yes." "I can't do that." "Please." "After dinner." "Now." "After dinner." "Fair is fair." "All right." "On one condition." "That you let the hotel valet do something with this suit first." "You belong in the stockyards looking like that." "Okay." "There's the phone." "Valet service, please." "Where are we?" "463." "Room 463." "How quickly can you get a suit sponged and pressed?" "Yes, fast." "20 minutes?" "Fine." "Okay. 463." "He'll be right up." "Better take your things off." "Now, what could a man do with his clothes off for 20 minutes?" "Couldn't he have taken an hour?" "You could always take a cold shower." "That's right." "When I was a little boy, I wouldn't even let my mother undress me." "You're a big boy now." "Tell me, how does a girl like you get to be a girl like you?" "Lucky, I guess." "Not lucky." "Naughty." "Wicked." "Up to no good." "Ever kill anyone?" "Because I bet you could tease a man to death without half trying." "So, stop trying." "Be with you in a minute." "Trousers, please." "Thank you." "Think I'll take that cold shower after all."

"I have $1,200." "Go $1,300." "Who'll say $1,300?" "$13." "You mean $1,300, sir." "No, I mean $13." "That's more than it's worth." "I have $1,200." "Go $1,300." "Who'll say $1,300?" "Who'll say $1,250?" "$1,200 once." "$1,200 twice." "Last call. $1,200." "$2,000." "$2,000?" "$2,100." "I'm sorry, but we can't" "Make it $2,500." "Would the gentleman please cooperate?" "The last bid was $1,200." "$2,500." "My money is as good as anybody's." "I have" "What was it?" "$1,200." "I have $1,200 once, $1,200 twice" "$3,000." "Sold for $1,200." "I won't let you get away with that." "You'd better leave, sir." "Take your hands off me or I'll sue you." "What took you so long?" "Let's take a little walk." "Get moving." "I haven't finished bidding yet." "$3,000." "I bid $3,000." "I'm sorry, old man." "Too bad." "Keep trying." "Not so rough!" "Handle with care, fellas." "In there." "I'm valuable property." "In." "I want to thank you for saving my life." "Thank you, my friend." "Thank you." "Save it for the stationhouse." "Let's have some smiles and good cheer." "You're about to become heroes." "Don't you know who I am?" "We'll find out as soon as we book you for being drunk and disorderly." "That's chicken feed." "You've hit the jackpot." ""Chicago police capture United Nations killer."" "My name is Roger Thornhill." "Here." "It's him." "That's right." "Congratulations." "This is 1055." "Sergeant Flamm." "We've got a man here who answers to the description of Thornhill, Roger." "Code 76." "Wanted by NYPD." "Positive ID." "Absolutely." "No question." "Michigan Avenue." "Proceeding north to 42nd precinct." "What?" "Come again!" "Are you sure?" "Okay." "Right." "Yeah, I got it." "1055, off and clear." "Where are we going?" "The airport." "For what?" "Orders." "Airport?" "I'm not going to any airport." "I want to be taken to police headquarters." "You do, huh?" "Why do you think I sent for you?" "How about this guy?" "He sent for us!" "Sit back!" "Didn't you hear?" "I want to be taken to police headquarters." "I'm a dangerous assassin." "I'm a mad killer on the loose!" "You ought to be ashamed of yourself." "NORTHWEST" "They said right here." "Does anyone mind if I sit down?" "I've been running all day." "Thought I'd never make it." "Getting too old for this kind of work." "All right, men." "Thank you." "This way, Mr. Thornhill." "We haven't got much time." "This way is more private." "I don't think I caught your name." "I don't think I pitched it." "You're police, aren't you?" "Or is it FBI?" "FBI, CIA, ONI." "We're all in the same alphabet soup." "You can stick this in your alphabet soup." "I had nothing to do with that killing." "We know that." "You know it?" "Then why did you let the police chase me all over the map?" "We never interfere with the police unless absolutely necessary." "It has become necessary." "Then, I take it I'm to be cleared." "I wish you'd walk faster, Mr. Thornhill." "We'll miss the plane." "Where are we going?" "New York or Washington?" "Rapid City, South Dakota." "Rapid City?" "What for?" "It's near Mt." "Rushmore." "No, thank you." "I've seen Mt." "Rushmore." "So has your friend Mr. Vandamm." "Vandamm?" "A rather formidable gentleman." "What about that treacherous little tramp with him?" "Miss Kendall?" "His mistress." "We know all about her." "Tell me, what's Vandamm up to?" "You could say he's a sort of importer-exporter." "Of what?" "Government secrets, perhaps." "Then why don't you grab him?" "There's still too much we don't know about his organization." "I see." "What's all this got to do with Mt." "Rushmore?" "Vandamm has a place near there." "We think it's his jumping-off point to leave the country tomorrow night." "Are you going to stop him?" "No." "Then why are we going there?" "To set his mind at ease about George Kaplan." "Oh, you, huh?" "You're George Kaplan, aren't you?" "There is no such person as George Kaplan." "What do you mean?" "I've been in his room." "I've tried on his clothes." "He's got short sleeves and dandruff!" "Believe me, he doesn't exist." "Which is why I'm going to have to ask you to go on being him for the next 24 hours." "Come on!" "We'll discuss it on the plane." "You started the decoy business without me, you finish it without me!" "We might have if you hadn't stumbled into it." "You should give me a medal and a vacation instead of asking me to be a target just so your special agent doesn't get shot at!" "Not shot at, Mr. Thornhill." "Found out." "Once found out they're as good as dead." "Thanks to you, clouds of suspicion are already forming." "Thanks to me?" "You listen to me." "I'm an advertising man, not a red herring!" "I've got a job, a secretary, a mother two ex-wives and several bartenders dependent upon me and I don't intend to disappoint them by getting myself killed!" "The answer is no." "Is that final?" "Yes." "Goodbye, then." "Goodbye." "If there was a chance of changing your mind I'd talk about Miss Kendall of whom you so obviously disapprove." "Yes, for using sex like some people use a fly-swatter." "I suppose it doesn't matter to you that she was probably forced to do whatever she did to protect herself." "To protect herself from what?" "Exposure, assassination." "You see, Mr. Thornhill, she's...." "She's one of our agents." "Oh, no!" "I know you didn't mean it but I'm afraid you have put her in an extremely dangerous situation." "And much more than her life is at stake." "Suppose they don't come?" "They'll come." "I don't like the way Teddy Roosevelt is looking at me." "Perhaps he's trying to give you one last word of caution, Mr. Kaplan." ""Speak softly, and carry a big stick."" "He's trying to tell me not to go through with this harebrained scheme." "He doesn't know to what extent you are the cause of our present trouble." "I don't know that I care to accept that charge." "If you hadn't made yourself so attractive to Miss Kendall that she fell for you..." "And vice versa." "...our friend Vandamm wouldn't be losing faith in her loyalty now." "It was quite obvious to him last night that she had become emotionally involved." "Worst of all, with a man he thinks is a government agent." "Are you trying to tell me that I'm irresistible?" "I'm trying to remind you that it's your responsibility to help us restore her to Vandamm's good graces until he leaves the country tonight." "All right, all right." "But, after tonight...." "My blessings on you both!" "Here they are!" "Good afternoon, Mr. Kaplan." "Not her!" "Did I misunderstand you about bringing her here?" "We'll get to that later." "I suppose you were surprised to get my call." "Not at all." "I knew the police would release you, Mr. Kaplan." "By the way, I want to compliment you on your colorful exit from the auction gallery." "Thank you." "And now what little drama are we here for today?" "I don't for a moment believe that you invited me to these gay surroundings to come to a business arrangement." "Suppose I tell you that I not only know when you're leaving the country tonight but the latitude and longitude of your rendezvous and your ultimate destination." "You wouldn't care to carry my bags, would you?" "Perhaps you'd be interested in the price, just the same." "The price?" "For doing nothing to stop you." "How much did you have in mind?" "I want the girl." "I want her to get what's coming to her." "Turn her over to me." "I'll see there's enough pinned on her to keep her uncomfortable for the rest of her life." "You do that, and I'll look the other way tonight." "She really did get under your skin." "We're not talking about my skin." "We're talking about yours." "I'm offering you a chance to save it." "To exchange it!" "Put it any way you like." "I'm curious, Mr. Kaplan." "What made you think that my feelings for her may have deteriorated to the point where I would trade her in for a little peace of mind?" "I don't deduce." "I observe." "Phillip, if you don't mind, I'm going back to the house now." "Just a second, you." "Stay away from me!" "Let go!" "Let go of me!" "Stay away from me!" "Let go!" "Let go of me!" "Save the phony tears." "You just get back." "You little fool!" "You just stay away from me." "No good." "You can't get involved in this." "Don't touch anything." "Stand back." "Stand back." "Don't be long." "Hello." "Hello." "Are you all right?" "Yes, I think so." "I asked the Professor if I could see you again." "There's not much time." "Isn't there?" "I wanted to tell you...." "I mean, apologize." "No need." "I understand." "All in the line of duty." "I did treat you miserably." "I hated you for it." "I didn't want you to go on thinking...." "I used some pretty harsh words, I'm sorry." "They hurt deeply." "Naturally, if I'd known...." "I couldn't tell you." "Of course not." "Could I?" "No, I guess not." "You didn't get hurt." "I'm so relieved." "Of course I was." "How would you have felt?" "I mean in the cafeteria, when you fell." "When I shot you with the blanks." "Oh, that." "No." "You did it rather well, I thought." "Yes, I thought I was quite graceful." "Considering it's not really your kind of work." "No, I got into it by accident." "What's your excuse?" "I met Phillip Vandamm at a party one night and saw only his charm." "I guess I had nothing to do that weekend so I decided to fall in love." "That's nice." "Eventually, the Professor and his Washington colleagues approached me with a few sordid details about Phillip and he told me that my relationship with him made me "uniquely valuable" to them." "So you became a Girl Scout?" "It was the first time anyone ever asked me to do anything worthwhile." "Has life been like that?" "How come?" "Men like you." "What's wrong with men like me?" "They don't believe in marriage." "I've been married twice." "See what I mean?" "I may go back to hating you." "It was more fun." "Goodbye, darling." "Wait." "Not so soon." "I must get back and convince them that I took the long way so nobody would follow me." "Couldn't we stand like this for just a few hours?" "Just this time you're supposed to be critically wounded!" "I never felt more alive." "Whose side are you on?" "Yours, always, darling." "Please don't undermine my resolve, just when I need it most." "I guess it's off to the hospital for me and back to danger for you." "I don't like it a bit." "It's much safer now, thanks to you, my darling decoy." "Don't thank me." "I couldn't stand it." "All right." "I won't." "After your malevolent friend Vandamm takes off tonight we'll get together and do a lot of apologizing to each other, in private." "You know that can't be." "Of course it can be!" "He has told you, hasn't he?" "Told me what?" "You've got to get moving." "What didn't you tell me?" "Why didn't you?" "She's going off with Vandamm tonight on the plane." "She's going off with Vandamm?" "That's why we went to such lengths to make her a fugitive from justice." "So that Vandamm couldn't decline to take her along." "I needn't tell you how valuable she can be to us over there." "You lied to me!" "You said that after tonight" "I needed your help." "You got it, all right." "Don't be angry." "You think I'll let you go through with this?" "She has to." "Nobody has to do anything!" "I don't like the games you play!" "War is hell, Mr. Thornhill, even when it's a cold one." "If you can't lick the Vandamms of this world without asking girls to bed down and fly away with them and probably never come back perhaps you should learn how to lose a few cold wars." "We're already doing that." "I won't let you do this." "Get out." "Please don't spoil everything." "...shot Mr. Kaplan twice in full view of horrified men, women and children who had come to the park to see the famed Mt." "Rushmore monument." "Witnesses described the assailant as an attractive blonde in her late twenties." "Kaplan, who was taken to the hospital in critical condition has been tentatively identified as an employee of the federal government." "The tragedy developed with startling suddenness." "Chris Swenson, a busboy in the Mt." "Rushmore cafeteria stated that he heard voices raised in" "Here we are." "Slacks, a shirt and these." "Thanks." "That'll do for you around here for the next couple of days." "The next couple of days?" "Hey, what's this?" "That's where I hit the chair doing that phony fall in the cafeteria." "You and your dopey schemes." "Shooting." "Otherwise, feeling all right?" "Oh, yes." "Fine." "Considering your driver has a sledgehammer for a hand." "Yeah, I'm sorry about that." "That's all right." "I guess I deserved it." "I guess I deserve that locked door, too." "If you were seen wandering about healthy, it could prove fatal to Miss Kendall." "I've begun to forget her already." "Good." "Better that way." "Yeah, much." "Inside of an hour, she'll be gone." "How's everything out in Rapid City?" "Everything's fine." "Mr. Kaplan's untimely shooting has acquired the authority of the printed word." "Everyone's been cooperating beautifully." "Now you can include me." "I'm a cooperator." "I'm most grateful." "Care to do me a favor in return?" "Anything." "I'd like a drink." "Will you get me some bourbon?" "A pint will do." "Can I join you?" "If you're gonna join me, you better make it a quart." "See you in a few minutes." "Stop!" "Excuse me." "Stop." "Don't you want me to take you up there?" "No, thanks." "Never mind." "This is fine." "There's nothing to worry about." "I just lost my head." "I'm not just saying this to make you feel better." "I mean it." "I just didn't know what I was doing." "He wants to destroy you." "You had to protect yourself." "But not endanger you!" "Rubbish." "Soon we'll be off together and I shall dedicate myself to your happiness." "What's the situation, Leonard?" "About the plane, you mean?" "Of course." "What was the last report?" "Over Whitestone on the hour." "6,000." "Descending." "About ten minutes?" "At the most." "And now...." "I wonder if I might have a few words of parting with you, sir?" "Certainly." "In private?" "I'll get my things." "How does one say goodbye to one's right arm?" "In your case, you'll wish you had cut it off sooner." "I know you're terribly fond of Miss Kendall...." "It couldn't have been anything." "You must've had some doubts about her yourself." "And still do." "Rubbish." "Why else would you've decided not to tell her that our little treasure here has a bellyful of microfilm?" "You seem to be trying to fill mine with rotten apples." "Sometimes the truth does taste like worms." "I've heard nothing but innuendoes." "Call it my "woman's intuition" if you will, but I've never trusted neatness." "Neatness is always the result of deliberate planning." "She shot him in a moment of fear and anger." "You were there, you saw it yourself." "Yes." "And thereby wrapped everything up into one very neat and tidy bundle." "A:" "She removed any doubts you may have had about her." "What did you call it?" "Her "devotion"?" "B:" "She gave herself an urgent reason to be taken to the other side with you in case you decided to change your mind." "I think you're jealous." "No, I mean it." "I'm very touched." "Leonard!" "The gun she shot Kaplan with." "I found it in her luggage." "It's an old trick." "Shoot one of your own to show that you're not one of them." "They've just freshened it up a bit with blank cartridges." "What was that noise?" "Yes, we wondered what it was, too." "Didn't we, Leonard?" "Hurry down, darling." "It's time to leave." "In a moment." "You're not taking her on that plane with you?" "Of course I am." "Like our friends, I, too, believe in neatness, Leonard." "This matter is best disposed of from a great height over water." "How about a little champagne before we go?" "I'd love it." "It may not be cold enough." "On the rocks it'll be all right." "Are you sure?" "R.O.T." "They're on to you." "I'm in your room." "To you, my dear and all the lovely moments we've had together." "Thank you." "There he is." "Jump in, Leonard." "The champagne's fine." "There isn't time." "You always were a spoilsport, weren't you?" "One of my most valuable attributes as it now turns out." "It would please me if you'd think of me as being along on this journey if only in spirit." "I shall." "He's heading pretty far out on the north flag and awfully high." "I guess he's going to play it safe with a long, slow descent." "You couldn't ask for a better night than this." "Ceiling and possibilities unlimited." "There he goes, starting his turn." "We'd better get moving." "He should have his wheels on the ground inside of three minutes." "Come along, Eve." "All right." "I think I left my earrings upstairs." "I'll be right down." "We can go through the window." "There's a car downstairs!" "What are you doing?" "You'll ruin everything!" "They know about the fake shooting!" "They'll kill you!" "What?" "Leonard found the gun in your luggage!" "The figure they got at the auction is filled with microfilm!" "That's how he's been getting it." "Whatever you do, don't get on that plane!" "Don't worry, Anna." "Arrangements have been made." "You and your husband will be in Canada by morning." "Thank you very much, sir." "Be careful." "We will." "God bless you!" "Stay where you are!" "Sit down." "As soon as the plane leaves, my husband and Mr. Leonard will be back." "What is it?" "I was wondering about my earrings." "They'll turn up." "When you return to New York, say goodbye to my sister." "Thank her for her performance as Mrs. Townsend." "Tell your knife-throwing chum that I've reassured his wife." "That's all, Leonard." "Get that figure back!" "The housekeeper had me pinned down for five minutes before I realized it was that silly gun of yours." "I see you've got the pumpkin." "Yes." "This is no good." "We're on top of the monument." "What'll we do?" "Climb down." "We can't." "Here they come." "We have no choice." "If we ever get out of this alive let's go back to New York on the train together." "All right?" "Is that a proposition?" "It's a proposal, sweetie." "What happened to the first two marriages?" "My wives divorced me." "Why?" "I think they said I led too dull a life." "Come on." "Are you all right?" "Come on." "Help!" "Help me!" "Thank you, Sergeant." "That wasn't very sporting, using real bullets?" "Here, reach." "Now." "I'm trying." "Come on, I've got you." "Up!" "I can't make it!" "Yes, you can." "Come on." "Pull harder!" "Come along, Mrs. Thornhill." "Roger, this is silly." "I know, but I'm sentimental."

"!" " I'm sorry I can't stay, but" "I don't want to be around here when you ... how do I say this gently?" "... Vaporize." "How can you do this?" "The peace conference was your idea."

"Rook:" "Why would you sacrifice yourself for these cowards?" "Because of our size and physiology, we will survive the core meltdown." "Rook:" "Not unlike cockroaches."

"If we're going to get out of here, we must work together." "We have put aside our differences, but we need help to figure a way out." "Help us, Ben Tennyson." "Gravattack:" "Mnh." "Mnh, mnh." "It's obvious Ben Tennyson wants us to work it out for ourselves!" "You're wise beyond your years, Ben Tennyson." "Gravattack: [groans]" "Rook:" "Ben!" "Mouth open ... now!" "Aaaaah!" "Ah, it doesn't matter." "He won't survive the core meltdown." "Just to be safe, sir, should we ready an evacuation plan?" "Evacuate?" "In our moment of triumph?"

"And this is for trying to blow up me!" "Polaris piledriver!" "Ugh!" "Rath:" "Yah!" "Sirius butt-kickin'!" "[Warbling]" "Aaaaaaah!" "Gaaaaaah!" "Oh." "This little thing?" "It unleashes a sonic signal that is rather deadly to Appoplexians." "I'm sorry, but this is where it ends." "Rath:" "Lemme tell you somethin'!" "Rath still has one surprise left in him!" "[Shouts indistinctly]" "[Growls]" "Poltroon of Luoda, you got any more fancy weapons designed to stop Appoplexians?" "!" "[Sighs] No." "Rath:" "Rah!" "Then peace out." "Max:" "Here's to peace in the galaxy, thanks to Ben." "Ben:" "I didn't have to do anything." "They worked it out themselves."

"Yeah. "The truth lies where the mask was made."" "You know, the mask Brandon James wore was actually a surgical mask." " Some say it was all that held his face together..." " Noah." "Okay, okay." "Um, just..." "It was to protect his sutures from infection, post-op." " So who made it?" " I don't know." "Brandon's surgeries were done at Lakewood General, out on the turnpike, but it closed down, like, six or seven years ago." "Please tell me we're going there!"

"Em, you're going to that hospital alone, aren't you?" "I..." "I just keep thinking about what you said this morning."

"He's not there to ambush me." " And you'd have your answer." " Yeah." "But also, if it wasn't him..." "Then we go together." "Prepared." "Okay." "Cool." " Should we take Noah?" " Oh, God, no."

"Well, let's hope that's good enough." "Hey, kitten." "You okay?" "(SIGHS)" "My friends are dead and everyone hates me." "Other than that, perfect." "Hey, did you talk to Mom?" "I keep trying her cell and it just goes straight to voice-mail." "Well, I don't think the ashram allows phones." "(SIGHS)" "Does she even know what's going on here?" "Brooke, your mom has perfected the art of avoidance." "I, on the other hand, have to handle the press, the grieving parents, and a departmental screw-up of Darwin Award proportions."

"Did you tell your dad?" "Not yet." "(SIGHS) He'll never co-sign for student loans, so that's it." "I'm never getting out of here." "You know, if you need fast cash for tuition, there is another option." "We can finish what Nina and Tyler started." "Blackmail?" "We're finally in the clear and you want to dive back in?" "We are still in the clear." "This guy has no idea who we are." "We don't even have the video." "It's on Nina's laptop." "There may be another copy." "(SCOFFS) I knew you didn't delete everything." "We have an opportunity." "Look, if the guy balks, then we walk." "No harm, no foul." "But if he pays, hello, Duke." "EMMA:" "Okay." "So, what do you think?" "Uh, second thoughts are setting in." "Look, this guy killed Riley at the police station and Nina at her house, and I know for a fact that he was outside my house the other night." "If he wanted to kill me, he's had plenty of chances." "That's sketchy logic." "But it almost makes sense." "All right, let's gear up." "You have a stun gun?" "Yeah." "Over-protective dad."

"Oh, it's a genuine killer's lair." " That's a thing?" " Oh, please don't get him started." "A lair is an extension of the killer's psychosis."

"When I left Sebastian in Morocco" "I had intended to return directly to Paris but the business of his allowance meant that I had to travel to London to see Bridey." "We met in the library of Marchmain House." "Do you consider there is anything vicious about my brother's connection with this German?" "o." "I'm sure not." "It's simply a case of two waifs coming together." "You say he's a criminal?" "A 'criminal type'." "He's been in a military prison and he was dishonourably discharged." "And the doctor says Sebastian is killing himself with drink." "Weakening himself." "He hasn't D.T.'s or cirosis." "He's not insane?" "Certainly not." "He's found a companion he happens to like and a place that he happens to like living in." "Then he must have his allowance as you suggest." "The thing is quite clear." "Would you like to paint this house?" "My father wants it done for a record to be kept at Brideshead." "One picture of the front one of the back from the park" "one of the staircase and one of the large drawing room." "Four small oils." "I don't know any painters." "Julia said you specialist in architecture." "Yes." "I should like to very much." "You know they're pulling it down?" "My father's selling it." "They're going to put up a block of flats here." "They're keeping the name." "We can't stop them, apparently." "What a very sad thing." "Well, of course I'm sorry." "But do you think it good architecturally?" "One of the most beautiful houses I know." "I can't see it." "I've always thought it rather ugly." "Perhaps your pictures will make me see it differently." "I began in the long drawing room for they were anxious to shift the furniture which had stood there since it was built." "I set out the perspective in pencil but held back from the painting like a diver on the water's edge." "Once in, I found myself buoyed and exhilarated." "I was normally a slow and deliberate painter." "That afternoon and all next day, and the day after" "I worked fast." "I could do nothing wrong." "At the end of each passage I paused, tense, afraid to start the next fearing like a gambler that luck must turn and the pile be lost." "But bit by bit, minute by minute the thing came into being." "There were no difficulties." "The intricate multiplicity of light and colour became a whole each brush stroke, as soon as it was complete seemed to have been there always." "May I stay here and watch?" "Yes so long as you don't talk." "This was my first commission." "I had to work against time, for the contractors were only waiting for the final signature to start their work of destruction." "In spite, or perhaps because of that, for it is my vice to spend too long on a canvas, never content to leave well alone." "Those four paintings of Marchmain House are particular favourites of mine" "and it was their success both with myself and others that confirmed me in what has since been my career." "It must be lovely to be able to do that." "It is." "I'm tired." "I bet you are." "Is it finished?" "Practically." "I shall have to go over it again in the morning." "Do you know it's almost dinner time?" "There's no one here to cook anything now." "I only came up today." "I didn't realise how far the decay had gone." "You wouldn't take me out to dinner, would you?" "All right." "Thank you." "I'll go and get changed." "We left by the side door and walked to the restaurant." "You've seen Sebastian?" "Yes, I have." "He won't come home even now." "I didn't realise you understood so much." "Well, I love him more than anyone." "It's sad about Marchers, isn't it?" "Very sad." "Do you know they're going to build a block of flats?" "And that Rex wants to take what he called a 'penthouse' at the top?" "Isn't that like him?" "Poor Julia, that was too much for her." "He couldn't understand at all." "He thought she'd like to keep up with the old home." "Things have all come to an end very quickly, haven't they?" "Apparently, Papa has been terribly in debt for a long time and selling Marchers has put him straight again." "But what's going to happen to you?" "What indeed?" "There are all kinds of suggestions." "Aunt Fanny Roscommon wants me to live with her and then Rex and Julia talk of taking over half of Brideshead and living there." "But won't your father come back?" "We thought he might but no." "They closed the chapel at Brideshead." "Did they?" "Bridey and the Bishop." "Mummy's Requiem was the last mass said there." "After she was buried, the priest came in" "I was there alone." "I don't think he saw me." "He took up the altar stone and put it in his bag then he burnt the wads of wool with the holy oil on them" "and threw the ash outside." "He emptied the Holy water stoup blew out the lamp in the sanctuary" "and left the tabernacle open and empty as though from now on it was always to be Good Friday." "I suppose none of this makes any sense to you, Charles." "Poor agnostic." "I stayed there till he was gone." "Then suddenly, there wasn't any chapel there any more." "Just an oddly decorated room." "I can't tell you what it felt like." "You've never been to Tenenbrae, I suppose?" "o." "Well, if you had you would know how the Jews feel about that Temple." ""Quomodo sedet sola civitas"." "It's a beautiful chant." "You ought to go there once, just to hear it." "Are you still trying to convert me, Cordelia?" "o." "That's all over, too." "Do you know what papa said when he became a Catholic?" "Mummy told me once." "He said "You have brought back my family to the faith of their ancestors. "" "Pompous, you know." "It takes people in different ways." "Anyhow, the family haven't been very constant, have they?" "There's him gone" "Sebastian gone" "Julia gone." "But God won't let them go for long you know." "I wonder if you remember the story that Mummy read us the evening Sebastian first got drunk" "I mean, that bad evening." "Father Brown?" "Yes." "He said something like" ""I caught him, the thief, with an unseen hook and an invisible line, which is long enough to let him wander to the ends of the world and still bring him back with a twitch upon the thread. "" "First time I've ever been taken out to dinner alone at a restaurant." "Do you know what Julia said when she heard about Marchmain being sold?" "She said" ""Poor Cordelia won't have her coming out ball here after all. "" "It's a thing we used to talk about, like me being her bridesmaid." "That didn't come off either." "When Julia had her ball" "I was allowed down for an hour to sit in the corner with Aunt Fanny" "and she said to me" ""In six years time, you'll have all this!"" "I hope I've got a vocation." "I don't know what that means." "It means you can be a nun." "If you haven't a vocation it's no good however much you want to be, and if you have a vocation you can't get away from it, however much you hate it." "Bridey thinks he has a vocation and hasn't." "I used to think Sebastian had and hated it but I don't know now." "Everything has changed so much suddenly." "You'll fall in love." "Oh, I pray not." "I say, do you think I could have another one of those scrumptious meringues?" "My theme is memory that winged host that soared about me one grey morning of war time." "These memories which are my life for we possess nothing certainly, except the past were always with me." "For nearly ten dead years after that evening with Cordelia" "I was borne along a road outwardly full of change and incident but never during that time, except sometimes in my painting did I come alive as I had been during the time of my friendship with Sebastian." "I became an architectural painter." "But as the years passed" "I began to mourn the loss of something" "I had known in the drawing room of Marchmain House." "The intensity and singleness and the belief that it was not all done by hand." "In a word, the inspiration." "In quest of this fading light, I went abroad travelling by slow but not easy stages through Mexico and Central America." "There, in great labour, sickness and occasionally in some danger, I made the first drawings for Ryder's Latin America." "I was in no great pains to keep in touch with England." "I followed local advice for my itinerary and had no settled route so that much of my mail never reached me and the rest accumulated until there was more than could be read at one sitting." "But despite this isolation and this long sojourn in a strange world, I remained unchanged" "still a small part of myself pretending to be whole." "I discarded the experiences of those two years with my tropical kit and returned to New York, as I had set out." "Ritchie!" "I have a suite booked." "The name is Ryder." "Yes, sir." "Has my wife arrived yet?" "646 and 7." "Mr. And Mrs. Charles Ryder." "Your wife has checked in, sir." "Would you care to sign the register, please?" "Your wife went out earlier, sir." "She said to say she'd be back after lunch." "Thank you." "o, sir." "Thank you." "Thank you very much." "Thank you, sir." "Goodnight." "Goodnight." "I don't believe you read my letters." "Well, some of them went astray." "I remember distinctly your telling me that the daffodils in the orchard were a dream" "and that the new nursery maid was a jewel but frankly I cannot remember you telling that your new baby was called Caroline." "Why did you call it that?" "After Charles, of course." "I made Bertha Van Halt godmother." "I thought she was safe for a good present." "What do you think she gave?" "Bertha Van Halt's a well known trap." "What?" "A fifteen shilling book token." "Now that John-John has a companion" "Who?" "Your son, darling." "You haven't forgotten him, too?" "Why do you call him that?" "It's the name he invented for himself." "Don't you think it's sweet?" "Now that John-John has a companion, I think we'd better not have any more for some time, don't you?" "Just as you like." "John-John talks about you such a lot." "He prays every night for your safe return." "I hope you admire my self-restraint." "Restraint?" "I'm not asking any awkward questions." "I may say I've been tormented by visions of voluptuous half-casts ever since you went away." "But I'm determined not to ask" "and I haven't." "That suits me." "Shall I put my face to bed?" "o, not just yet." "I don't believe you've changed at all, Charles." "o, I'm afraid not." "Do you want to change?" "It's the only evidence of life." "But you might change so that you didn't love me anymore." "There is that risk." "Charles?" "You haven't stopped loving me?" "You said yourself I hadn't changed." "Well, I'm beginning to think you have." "I haven't. o." "o, I can see that." "Were you at all frightened at meeting me today?" "Not the least." "You didn't wonder if I should have fallen in love with someone else in the meantime?" "o." "Have you?" "You know I haven't." "Have you?" "o" "I'm not in love." "Oh, bloody central heating!" "Lights out?" "The garden's come on a lot." "The box-hedges you planted grew five inches last year." "Of course, darling, I can see your new pictures are perfectly brilliant and really rather beautiful in a sinister way" "but, somehow, I don't feel they're quite you." "We've got a first-class cook at the moment we're really impressed." "Just like old times." "I'm not worrying anymore, Charles." "Good." "I was so terribly afraid that two years might have made a difference." "Now I know we can start again exactly where we left off." "When?" "What?" "When we left off what?" "When you went away, of course." "You're not thinking of something else, a little time before?" "Oh Charles, that's old history." "It was nothing." "It was never." "It's all over and forgotten." "I just wanted to know." "So we're back where we were the day I went abroad, is that it?" "So we started that day exactly where we left off two years before" "with my wife in tears." "Hello?" "Hello?" "In the dressing room, please." "Charles!" "I'm just arranging our little party this evening." "Julia!" "Celia, Celia Ryder." "Oh, it's lovely to find you on board." "What have you been up to?" "Come and have a cocktail this evening and tell me all about it" "Good." "See you then." "Julia who?" "Mottram." "I haven't seen her for years." "Hello?" "Operator" "I'd not seen Julia since the private view of my first exhibition where the four canvasses of Marchmain House, lent by Bridey had hung together attracting much attention." "Those pictures were my last contact with the Flytes." "Our lives, so close for a year or two had drawn apart." "Sebastian, I knew, was still abroad." "Rex and Julia I sometimes heard it said, were unhappy together." "Rex was not prospering quite as well as had been expected." "I saw their faces now and again, peeping from the Tatler but they and I had fallen apart into separate worlds." "Can I get you anything, sir?" "A whisky soda, no ice." "I'm sorry, sir." "All the soda's iced." "Is the water iced?" "Oh yes, sir." "That will do." "Charles." "Hello." "I heard you were here." "Celia telephoned to me." "It's delightful." "Will you join me for a drink?" "Thank you." "What are you doing?" "Waiting my maid's unpacking." "She's been so disagreeable ever since we left England." "She's complaining now about the cabin." "I can't think why." "It seems the lap of luxury to me." "He brought two jugs." "One of iced water, the other of boiling water." "I mixed them to the right temperature." "I'll remember that's how you take it, sir." "Thank you." "What can I get for you, madam?" "Oh, a hot chocolate." "Very good, madam." "I never see you now." "I never see anyone I like." "I can't think why." "What have you been doing in America?" "Don't you know?" "I'll tell you about it sometime." "I've been a mug." "I thought I was in love with someone but it didn't quite work out that way." "What about you, Charles?" "What have you been up to?" "Oh, I've just been painting trying different styles." "I'm just back from a trip." "Where have you been?" "Mexico, Central America quite a way from anywhere." "I felt I needed a change of scene." "I was getting stale." "It sounds thrilling." "I'm longing to see the pictures." "Celia wanted me to unpack them and stick them around the cabin for her cocktail party but I couldn't do that." "o" "Is Celia as pretty as ever?" "I always thought she had the most delicious looks of any girl in our year." "She hasn't changed." "You have, Charles." "So lean and grim not at all the pretty boy Sebastian brought home with him." "Harder, too." "And you're softer." "Yes, I think so." "And more patient now." "And sadder, too." "Oh yes, much sadder." "Facing in to the room, please." "My wife was in exuberant spirits when, two hours later" "I returned to the cabin." "There you are." "I've had to do everything." "How does it look?" "You must go and get dressed." "Where've you been all this time?" "Talking to Julia Mottram." "Do you know her?" "Oh, of course, you were a friend of the dipso brother." "Goodness her glamour!" "She greatly admires your looks, too." "She used to be a girlfriend of Boy's." "Surely not?" "He always said so." "Have you considered how your guests are going to eat this caviar?" "I have." "It's insoluble." "But I suppose there's always this." "Anyway, people always find ways of eating things at parties." "Do you remember how we once ate potted shrimps with a paper knife?" "Did we?" "Darling." "It was the night you popped the question in." "As I remember it, you popped." "Well, the night we got engaged." "Well, you haven't said what you think of the arrangements." "It's a cinema actor's dream." "Cinema actors!" "That's what I want to talk about." "Charles, I've been thinking." "I do believe you're absolutely cut out to be a set designer for the cinema." "I've invited two very important American's, real Hollywood magnates." "Do promise you'll be sensible and talk to them." "Ah, here is Father Christmas." "Dear Lady Celia" "Is everything alright, madam?" "We were just in raptures over your swan." "If you'll put on your warmest clothes and come on an expedition with me to the cold storage" "I can show you a whole oah's Ark full of such objects." "The toast for the caviar will be along shortly." "They're keeping it hot." "Toast!" "Do you hear that, Charles?" "Toast!" "I do believe you've taken against my swan." "We were just Now don't be beastly about it in front of the purser." "I think it was sweet of him to think of it." "You know, if Charles had read about it in a description of a 16th century banquet in Venice, he would have said 'those were the days to live"." "In sixteenth century Venice, it would have been a somewhat different shape." "Hello, how are you?" "I'm so glad you could come." "Celia, what a beautiful swan!" "Isn't it heavenly?" "Well, I hate to spoil the fun, but it looks like we're in for a storm." "How can you be so beastly?" "Anyway, storms don't affect a ship this size, do they?" "Well, it might hold us back a bit." "But it won't make us sick?" "That depends on how good a sailor you are." "I'm always sick in storms, ever since I was a boy." "I don't believe a word of it, he's simply being sadistic." "I must show you the photographs of the children." "Do you know Charles hasn't even seen Caroline yet?" "Isn't it thrilling for him?" "How old is she now?" "I'm Gloria Stuyvesant Oglander." "I feel I know you through and through" "Celia's told me so much about you." "There were no friends of mine here but I knew about a third of the party and talked a way civilly enough." "But all the time I thought only of when Julia would come." "Been waiting to do that for a long time." "Bet you don't know how many drops to the minute." "I do." "I've counted." "I've no idea." "Well, guess." "Go on, a tenner if you get it wrong and half a dollar if you get it right." "That's fair isn't it?" "Three." "Coo you're a sharp chap, aren't you?" "Been counting too, haven't you?" "Tell me, how do you work this one out?" "I'm an Englishman born and bred this is my first time on the Atlantic." "You flew out?" "o." "You came round the world the other way and across the Pacific." "You are a sharp chap and no mistake." "I've made quite a bit out of arguing on that topic." "Well" "I better skedaddle." "Toodle loo." "Still, Julia didn't come." "And the noise of twenty people in that tiny room was the noise of a multitude." "Charles, this is Mr. Kramm of International Films." "So you are Mr. Charles Ryder." "Yes." "Well, well, well." "Our purser says we're in for some pretty dirty weather." "What do you know about that?" "Rather less than the purser." "I'm sorry, Mr. Ryder." "I don't quite get you?" "I mean I know less about that than the purser." "Is that so?" "knowing that we should meet again in half an hour" "I've enjoyed our talk." "I hope it'll be the first of many." "You must promise to bring that distinguished looking husband of yours to my little do on Tuesday." "Oh, we'd love to." "Do tell me, how did if feel meeting Celia after two years?" "I know that I should feel indecently bridal." "But then Celia has never quite got the orange blossom out of her hair, has she?" "Julia never came?" "o, she telephoned." "I couldn't quite hear what she said, there was so much noise going on." "Something about a dress." "It was quite lucky, actually, there wasn't room for a cat." "It was a lovely party, wasn't it?" "Did you hate it very much?" "You behaved beautifully and you looked so distinguished." "Who was your red haired chum?" "o chum of mine?" "How very peculiar." "Did you say anything to Mr. Kramm about working in Hollywood?" "Of course not." "Oh Charles." "You are such a worry to me." "It's no good just standing around looking distinguished and being a martyr for Art." "Come on." "Let's go to dinner." "We're at the Captain's table." "I don't suppose he'll dine down tonight but it's polite to be fairly punctual." "I just hope I can find the dining room." "This place is an absolute maze." "We were a gruesome circle at dinner." "Even my wife's high social spirit faltered." "Wherever Celia is, you'll find she knows all the significant people." "I'm miserable about the party." "My beastly maid totally disappeared with every frock I have." "She only turned up half an hour ago." "I have made it my aim to reconcile the so-called Anarchist and the so-called Communists." "There is no fundamental diversity in their ideologies." "It is a matter of personality, Mr. Ryder and what personalities have put asunder personalities may unite." "Of course." "But I understood you to say" "Lady Celia that you were unacquainted with him." "I meant that he was like Captain Foulenough." "Ah, I begin to comprehend." "He impersonates this friend of yours in order to come to your party." "o, no." "Captain Foulenough is simply a comic character in an English paper." "You know, like your "Popeye"." "To recapitulate an imposter came to your party and you admitted him because of a fancied resemblance to a fictitious character in a cartoon." "Yes, I suppose that was it, really." "Do you not agree, Mr. Ryder?" "Yes yes." "What are words?" "What indeed." "My mind reeled." "After the months of solitude, this was too much." "I felt like Lear on the heath like the Duchess of Malfi bayed by madmen." "I summoned cataracts and hurricanes and, as if by conjury the call was immediately answered." "Either I am a little drunk or it's getting rough." "This is where I say goodnight to you all." "Like King Lear." "Only each of us is all three of them." "What can you mean?" "Lear, Kent, Fool." "Oh dear, it's like that agonizing Foulenough conversation over again." "Don't try and explain." "I'm not sure that I could." "Well, we've set a fine example of British phlegm." "But I think I've taken all I can." "This is making my headache and I'm tired, anyway." "I'm going to bed." "Are you coming, Julia?" "Yes." "Will you be joining in the tombola this evening, sir?" "o, no, thank you." "But if somebody could bring me some more brandy?" "Certainly, sir." "I'll get a steward for you." "Charles?" "Is that you?" "Yes." "I feel terrible." "I didn't know a ship of this size could pitch like this." "Can't you do something?" "Can't you get something from the doctor?" "I'll call the steward." "He'll have something." "Look, why don't I sleep next door?" "Then I won't disturb you." "Excuse me, sir, but these have come for you and her Ladyship." "What would you like me to do with them, sir?" "Oh, put them over there." "What news of the storm?" "Well, the wind's dropped a little, sir, but it's still blowing quite hard and there's a heavy swell." "Nothing like a heavy swell for the enjoyment of the passengers." "There weren't many breakfasts wanted this morning." "Just a moment, Steward." "Would you have these delivered to Lady Mottram's cabin?" "Certainly, sir." "And Steward" "Would you ask the barber to call?" "Very good, sir." "Thank you." "Hello?" "Charles!" "What a deplorable thing to do." "How unlike you!" "Don't you like them?" "What can I do with roses on a day like this?" "Smell them." "They've got absolutely no smell at all." "What have you had for breakfast?" "Muscat grapes and cantaloupe." "When am I going to see you?" "Before lunch?" "I'm busy till then with a masseuse." "A masseuse?" "Yes." "Isn't it peculiar?" "I've never had one before, except once, when I hurt my shoulder hunting." "What is it about being on a boat that makes everyone behave like a film star?" "I don't." "How about these very embarrassing roses?" "I'll see you on the deck about twelve thirty." "Marvelous." "You might not recognize me." "What do you mean?" "I'm having my beard removed." "How dreadful." "It sounds like an operation." "Can I come in?" "I thought these might cheer you up." "How sweet people are." "I take it you're not going to get up." "Oh no" "Mrs. Clark is being so sweet." "Don't bother." "Come in and tell me what's going on sometimes." "Not now, my dear." "The less we are disturbed today the better." "Charles your beard." "Yes, I know." "What a pity." "I thought it looked so distinguished." "649"

"You did it the day you wouldn't let Ricky in, and you did it the day you turned this into a dry park." "Now get the fuck out of here." "[Ricky] You heard him, Lahey." "Get the fuck outta here!"

"Take your fucking... cocksucking cameras, shove them up your fucking archetypical asses!" "[gunshot]" "[Ricky] Nobody throws a party for you when you're bornt." "You have to wait a whole goddamn year." "Why the fuck is that fair?" "I couldn't wait that long." "I want to show my gramson how much I love him." "I got Willy-goat, Ricky." "Well, it's about fucking time." "I'm trying to have a family portrait here." "How's it going, little man?" "Oh, you like that, don't ya?" "Things are going so well with Ricky and I, it took us a while to start banging again, but now that we are, he is, uh... he's giving 150%, for sure, uh," "it's dirty." "The fuck is wrong with this thing, Bubs?" "[whispering] Willy pooped in the punch." "Can you taste it?" "I didn't taste it." "I got to get fresh punch." "Taste it and see if you can taste it." "Nice looking wiener there, Rick." "Thanks, Luce." "Ricky." "We're the happiest we've ever been." "I mean, after my Dad proposed to me... on Jacob's behalf, everything just kind of fell into place." "Look." "It follows you wherever you look." "Yeah!" "Ay, let me tell y'all something right quick." "Sometimes life's like "Bing, bong!" "Hey man!" "Got a surprise for your candy, some shit you didn't see coming," y'know I mean?" "And I'll be honest with you," "This was my surprise right hurr." " Whaddup y'all?" " You know I'm sayin'?" "And at first, I was like," ""Ain't got time for this, y'know I mean?" "I got hoes to row, you know I'm sayin'?" "Skrilla to make, joints to drop."" "But then I realized something important, y'all:" "You don't gotta choose maf'ks." "One mafk go to the other mefk, you just combine meefks!" "You know I mean?" "Know what I know?" "I'm down with old hoes." "Makin' breakfast, goin' for walks." "I don't care if all the hustlers gonna judge me." "A mahfucka feel safe." "Know I mean?" "Plus, I've been around," "I know just how to snack it up, flip it, and rub it down." "Sayin'?" "Now, ain't that some shit." "First I was like, "Who's this" "Kelsey Grammar-lookin' bitch?"" "But turns out he's a'ight." "Dang right, and now we tight." "And we combined forces in a brand new business venture." "Yeah!" "It's still a party bus, and it's still bumping." "But now it's more like, a birthday party bus, you know I mean?" "Goose!" "When I say silly, y'all say goose!" "Silly..." " [all] Goose!" " Silly!" " Goose!" " When I say silly..." "We still poppin' bottles and all dat, but now it's more like, bottles of... ginger ale, or root beer rep." "Sayin'?" "Silly, silly, goose, silly, huh!" "Silly, huh!" "The only thing that sucks about being in jail is that it went by too fast, man." "We had so much fun there." "Hey!" "But now we got a wedding to plan." "And I couldn't think of a better best man." "[squeal]" " Aha, gotcha." " [chuckling]" "In hindsight I might've got..." "a little carried away on the entrepreneurial front." "You know, I started trying to expand like Richard Branson." "Basically, and I just..." "it was too much, too fast, and then I got a little bit, you know... a little carried away with... possessions like..." "TVs, and... nice fancy shed and all the things I had." "And really, I figured you don't need that stuff." "You just need your friends and your family, some..." "liquor, some nice liquor, some nice dope, and some..." "nice warm kitties to keep you company at night." "[chuckling]" "[imitating Mexican hat dance]" "Things couldn't be going any better for me right now, in my life." "I mean, I'm the owner of Sunnyvale Trailer Park, for fuck's sakes." "How good does that sound?" "Things were going a little fucky there for a little while, and I was going to throw in the towel, but then I said "Hey, reverse psychology is working for you."" "So I stuck with it, and what can I say?" "Everything worked out." "Hey, babe." "I was thinking, I'm getting a little tired..." "Thinking about maybe we shouldn't get some greasy shit going later on tonight." "See, that's reverse psychology." "Want a drink?" "Yeah, just..." "get that in ya." "Life's great." "I'm in for arson." "Burning down the fucking motel." "Jail fuckin' sucks." "But, on the plus side," "I got lots of time to figure out how in the fuck" "I'm going to fucking fuck Julian back over." "'Cause the fuzz says they got me on videotape." "But there's only one ape coulda done that." "Fuckin' jerkmeat Julian better watch the fuck out." "Cyrus!" "You piece of shit!" "I know you set me up!" "You fuckin' rats!" "Every time you open your mouth, Tommy, my cock gets homesick." "Oh, I got four words for you, motherfucker:" ""Slingshot to the face!"" " Fuck you." " No, fuck you!" "We hit the road, just to get out of Sunnyvale for a bit." "All the drama." "All the assholes." "Yeah, we opened up a Mystic Fingers day spa in Yarmouth." "And business was good, too." "Like, really good." "Oh, we were killing it." "Till one of the seniors turned out to be a police officer." "Cops don't like it when you cop a feel." "[chuckling]" "So we got arrested." "Ooh!" "My name is Colonel Dancer." "Not Private Dancer." "You don't crawl up through the swamp of rankings to be called a "Private"." "I'm a colonel." "I always will be a colonel." "To hell with that, I might even make general." "No, I'll go further." "I'll be a goddamn field marshal." "Pearl-handled revolvers, baton, make Patton look like a pussy." "Be back on Omaha Beach again 'fore we know it, with real men." "People doing a mission, a job, getting the job done." "What are you drooling for, soldier?" "Getting thrown in jail's been a happy accident." "I mean, don't get me wrong, we had great business in Yarmouth." "But business in jail is banging." "Like, literally banging." "'Cause there's tons of bored chicks here that want to pass the time with the mystic fingers, right?" "We are making money hand over fist." "I could run the country, I could run the world," "I could run a marathon." "Do you want to run a marathon?" "Whaddya say, soldier?" "Let's do it, let's go now, the two of us, just us against the world!" "What's wrong with these people?" "Even though our journey was to Yarmouth," "I feel like my personal journey was more profound." "Like, life-changing." "I realized that my entire life" "I have been defined by a man." "And I don't need one." "You love a person, not a gender." "And all through this whole thing," "Sarah has been a rock." "And, Donna too." "[chuckling]" "Men, I've got my girls." "Here's a brand new one, little buddy." "Look, it matches Grampie's shirt." "It's great, Dad." "I'm so glad you were bornt." "You want another drink?" "[guitar music]" "Here you go." "Hm, delicious isn't it?" "♪ Liquor and whores ♪" "♪ Liquor and whores ♪" "[Ricky] Let me take him around." "Sure." "♪ ...and dope and mustard and baloney ♪" "Let's go see some people."

" You frigged me over." " Jesus, Randy." "You're allowed in the park." "Just not with him." "That's not friggin' fair." "Yeah, it's fair, Randy." "I've frigged myself over, but I recognize that." " Randy, I did what I had to do, okay?" " Right." "It's for the best, anyway." "Have a good night, Jim." "Cheers, Juli." "[Randy] Bastard." "Randy!" "Don't talk like that, bud." "You know what?"

"No." "He said he was going to attack Skybase." "If he ran into any of the others..." "Come on." "Let's make for the transfer station." "This time, as you see, we are taking no chances." "Squad ready, sir." "Good." "Cotton, treason." "Stubbs, treason." "Ky, conspiracy, sabotage, terrorism." "Miss Grant, such a pity." "Miss Grant had nothing to do with it!" "Guard!" "Call the squad in." "GUARD:" "Squad, forward!" "Once again, the justice of the Overlords." "Exactly." "You will never win, Marshal." "You will never take over this planet." "As long as one of my people remains alive, you will never be safe." "My death is unimportant." "It will only help our fight for freedom." "There will be others after me." "Always the speechmaker, Ky." "But you're wrong." "No good!" "The whole operation ruined, Marshal, thanks to you." "Major Jaeger, I'm busy!" "I see!" "So tell them to get out!" "This is far more important!" "Jaeger, I am warning you." "Marshal, do you want to know what's happening to Solos, or are you too busy playing soldiers, hmm?" "Guards, wait outside." "You will forgive a short postponement, I trust." "Here are the figures." "Total failure!" "Every one of those rockets malfunctioned in one way or another." "If they had been properly checked out, as I insisted, Marshal..." "Jaeger, what happened?" "I'll tell you what happened." "None of the ionisation rockets exploded in the atmosphere." "Every single one hit the surface." "So?" "So, instead of seeding the atmosphere with ionisation crystals, the planet's surface itself has been contaminated." "You've made yourself master of a desert, Marshal, a lethal desert." "No one will be able to set foot on Solos for centuries now once the crystals have taken effect." "No one, not you, and certainly not the Investigator!" "Jaeger, will you shut up?" "As for this display of megalomania, how do you hope to conceal it from the Investigator?" "They are not all of them as loyal as those guards." "Someone will talk, if only to save his own skin." "Someone like you, Jaeger?" "Jaeger's right, you know." "Someone will talk." "And if I dispose of you all first?" "You can't silence the whole of Skybase." "You've got a problem, Marshal." "None of the men want to stay here." "My men do as I tell them." "That's not true, Marshal." "Cotton and I aren't the only ones, you know." "The Investigator's going to find out everything." "The Administrator assassinated, native leaders dead or missing, and a contaminated planet." "Now, that's not a very successful record, is it, Marshal?" "Very good, Miss Grant." "Very convincing." "But you forget one thing." "The Investigator still has to get here, and his ship is no match for Skybase." "Agreed." "You could dispose of the Investigator, too." "But how reliable are your rockets, Professor?" "As for the advance warning system, the Doctor and Miss Grant landed, Marshal, landed without being detected." "And the Doctor's still free." "Doctor!" "Always the Doctor!" "Well, no one else can help you, or Solos, for that matter." "Do you think we didn't know about the Investigator?" "Well, why do you think we were sent?" "He's coming to confirm the Doctor's findings." "Where is your precious Doctor now?" "He's on Solos, Marshal, with Sondergaard." "And both of them are very much alive." "(GRUNTING)" "What's happening here?" "It's started already." "Contamination from the ionisation crystals." "We've got to get out of here, Sondergaard." "It's no good." "I can't." "You'll have to leave me." "My dear chap, I wouldn't hear of it." "You've got to get to that laboratory on Skybase, Doctor." "You stand a better chance on your own." "I'll be all right." "I'll rest here for a while and then go back to the caves." "I'll be safe there." "Now, go, please." "Yes, all right." "You take care, all right?" "You're right, Miss Grant." "Your friend the Doctor is alive and on Solos." "And we know where he is." "Then why don't you arrest him?" "Oh, we shall." "Never fear." "You see, Miss Grant, there's a technique known as particle reversal." "We wish to use the Doctor's knowledge of this technique to, as it were, sweep the dust under the carpet before the Investigator arrives." "And supposing the Doctor refuses to cooperate?" "Hmm." "Oh, he will cooperate." "He will, Miss Grant." "You are our guarantee." "Now I shall return to Solos to supervise his capture." "Guard!" "Drive him this way!" "Remember, keep the pressure on." "I want the Doctor here in one piece." "Right, get on with it!" "(TRACKING DEVICES BEEPING)" "(DEVICES BEEPING FASTER)" "Goodbye." "He's heading for the transfer station." "After him!" "Come on, move it!" "Doctor!" "Doctor!" "Hello, Jo." "Now then, we'll soon get you out of this." "(HIGH-PITCHED BEEPING)" "Use the key, Doctor." "But before you do, consider what might happen to Miss Grant." "And the other thing." "Well, what do you want?" "As you're no doubt aware, Jaeger's made a complete hash of my plan to make the planet habitable." "He seems to think you can help him put it right." "And if I do?" "Then you will live, both of you." "And if not?" "Oh, come now, Doctor, surely, you can guess." "Yes, only too easily." "Then why the delay?" "It's not just their lives, the whole planet is at stake." "Very well, then." "Eh." "Oh, one more thing." "Your superior will be arriving shortly." "Superior?" "Yes." "Earth Control has seen fit to have my project investigated." "I want my reforms to have their approval." "You and your friends here will confirm the necessity of stern measures." "Outbreaks of plague and rebellion must be controlled." "Don't you agree?" "Marshal, you are quite mad." "(CHUCKLING)" "Only if I lose." "Ah, here you are." "Well, I gather that you've made a complete hash of things." "This is the situation." "As far as we can tell, the centres of crystal contamination have already started to spread and, in some cases, have linked up." "Mmm-hmm." "All living organisms seem to be affected." "Well, whatever we do, we're bound to leave a few bald patches." "It wasn't my decision, Doctor." "No, no." "No, no, of course not." "You were simply obeying orders." "That's a common excuse, Professor." "Right, now, I'll need a macrothizer, the strongest one you've got." "Well, there's only one." "The one you use in the transfer system?" "Yes, but you can't use that." "Well, we've got to use it." "We'll have to train it on each affected area in turn, like a searchlight." "I thought you were going to use the particle reversal." "I am, Jaeger, I am, but we shall..." "We shall need the beam to transfer the effect from this laboratory to the contaminated areas." "Oh, I see." "Uh, why?" "Well, we can hardly set it up on the surface of the planet, now, can we?" "You've seen to that." "I shall have to get the Marshal's authority." "The Marshal's?" "It's not going to be easy." "It means isolating Skybase." "Oh, for heaven's sake, stop dilly-dallying and let's get on with it." "These unstable reactions are dangerous." "I shall need some equipment." "If we don't come up with an effective control system, we'll particle reverse Skybase and we'll be in a bigger mess than we were before." "(INAUDIBLE WHISPERING)" "(GASPING)" "Guard!" "The girl's collapsed." "Help me." "Well, come on, man," "get over here, quickly!" "Please, help me." "Hurry up!" "Right!" "Keys." "And the other thing." "Thank you." "Well, now what?" "Well, now we've got to get on to somebody of authority and tell them what's happening here." "That's it, miss, contact the Investigator." "We can use the Marshal's communicator." "Yes." "Right, you do that, I'll bolt the door." "This is Skybase One calling Hyperion." "Skybase One calling Hyperion." "Come in, Hyperion." "This is urgent." "Repeat, urgent!" "Hurry up, Cotton, I won't be able to hold them, once they get in." "Skybase One, Skybase One!" "Come in, Hyperion!" "Skybase One calling Hyperion!" "Stay where you are, lads." "I don't want to shoot unless I have to." "Go on, get back!" "Come in, Hyperion!" "This is urgent!" "Skybase One on open channel!" "What's going on here?" "Get him!" "Get him!" "Get back, Marshal!" "Give me a gun, will you?" "Skybase calling Hyperion!" "Skybase calling Hyperion!" "MAN:" "Go ahead, Skybase One." "This is Hyperion." "Stubbsy, we've got them!" "Get on with it, then!" "What do I say?" "Here, let me." "Situation on Solos critical." "Marshal's attempts to convert atmosphere is causing severe loss of life." "The Administrator assassinated on Marshal's orders." "Marshal attempting to maintain complete control of entire planet." "He must be replaced immediately." "Over." "MAN:" "Message received, Skybase One." "Request identification." "Additional information soonest." "Hyperion out." "(SCREAMING)" "COTTON:" "Stubbsy!" "Did you get through?" "Yes." "Good lad, Cotton." "Good..." "Come on, Stubbsy." "Stubbsy, mate." "Quick!" "Get out, I'll follow!" "But what about him?" "No need to worry about him." "We'd better make for the transfer section somehow." "We can't!" "Not that way!" "Follow me!" "After them!" "Fool!" "What's that?" "Ready to isolate transfer macrothizer." "What?" "Oh, right." "Carry on." "Excuse me." "No." "(JO YELPING)" "Transfer system isolated...now." "Your friend the Doctor again, I'm afraid, Miss Grant." "He's cut off the power, no doubt." "Take these two to the radiation chamber." "Now, Miss Grant, perhaps you'd be good enough to come with me." "There." "You do realise, Professor, that the slightest accident at this stage in the proceedings is..." "Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk." "The slightest accident in this stage in the proceedings and we we'd all reverse instantly into anti-matter, blasted out to the other side of the universe, in a flash of electromagnetic radiation." "We'd all become unpeople, undoing unthings untogether." "Fascinating." "Got it." "Right, all we've got to do is switch on now and see what happens." "Or unhappens, as the case may be." "All right, lower away, will you?" "By the way, I didn't tell you, did I?" "Professor Sondergaard and I think we've discovered the secret behind the mutations." "It's not a disease at all." "Listen!" "Wait a minute!" "Listen!" "Can you understand me?" "Can you?" "You saved me from the guard." "Do you know who I am?" "You know me?" "I helped you." "Sondergaard." "I helped all the mutants, you remember?" "(GROWLING)" "Good." "Now listen." "How many are there left after the rockets?" "How many mutants?" "(GROWLING) Sick!" "Sick!" "No, no, not sick!" "We know now." "You are supposed to become like this." "You were supposed to change." "Now, listen to me, please." "But the Overlords' experiments with the air of Solos have made the mutation rate, made the change happen wrongly." "Do you follow me?" "(GRUMBLING)" "The change can be put right." "We know that now." "The mutation rate can be made to go as it was meant to." "(GROWLING)" "But you must help me." "You must help me find the Doctor." "Will you come with me and find him?" "(GROWLING)" "To save your people?" "(MACHINE POWERING UP)" "Now, let it build up, Professor." "More." "More." "You are at full power now." "Right." "Now here goes." "Activation beginning." "(LOUD WHIRRING)" "What's the reading?" "Planet surface no longer contaminated." "The nitrogen isotope level?" "Exactly as it was before my rockets landed." "Good." "And that's how it stays." "Not so, Doctor." "You'll continue to operate this device for me until Solos has an atmosphere breathable by humans and only by humans." "No!" "Very well." "Bring in Miss Grant." "Well, Doctor?" "MAN:" "Attention, Skybase." "Attention, Skybase." "This is Earth Investigator, space shuttle Hyperion." "We are about to dock." "I repeat, we are about to dock." "Well, Marshal, it seems as if your superiors have arrived." "What are you going to do now?" "Get her out of here." "Put her with the others." "Now, Doctor, shall we welcome the Investigator together?" "Are you all right?" "Well, yes, I think so." "What's happening?" "The Investigator's arrived." "And the Marshal?" "Well, from what I could gather, he's taken the Doctor to meet the Investigator." "Then, at last, my people can expect justice." "I doubt it." "Why not?" "The Doctor will tell him everything." "Well, why do you think we've been shoved down here?" "We're hostages, Ky, to make sure the Doctor says the right thing." "Come on, let us stay away from that wall." "Well, why?" "What's wrong?" "We're in the refuelling lock, next to where we store the radioactive thaesium." "That's what makes the walls glow." "Thaesium?" "Nuclear fuel, miss." "We use it to power Skybase, spaceships, practically everything." "How dangerous is it, this radiation?" "Safe enough for a short time." "Stay here too long, though, and, well, it builds up." "Well, how long's the Marshal going to keep us down here?" "Who knows?" "Don't suppose he's worried." "Wait a minute!" "Refuelling!" "What is it?" "The shuttle!" "What do you mean?" "They'll need to refuel Hyperion, the Investigator's shuttle." "They should be putting a probe out any minute now." "Then live thaesium will start flooding through there." "We'll all be done for!"

"Garbage." "All I've been thinking about all week is garbage." "I can't stop thinking about it." "What kind of thoughts about garbage?" "I just..." "I've gotten real concerned over what's gonna happen with all the garbage." "I mean, we've got so much of it." "You know?" "I mean, we have to run out of places to put this stuff eventually." "The last time..." "I started feelin' this way is when that barge was stranded and, you know, it was goin' around the island and nobody would claim it." " Do you remember that?" " Yes, I remember." "Do you have any idea what may have triggered this concern?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "You see, the other night John was taking out the garbage, and he kept spilling things out of the container, and that made me..." "I started imagining, like, a garbage can that produces garbage." "And it doesn't stop, it keeps producing garbage." "And it keeps overflowing." "And, you know, what would you do to try to stop something like that?" " Ann, do you see any pattern here?" " What do you mean?" "Well, last week we were talking about your obsession with the families of airline fatalities." "Now we're talking about your concern over the garbage problem." "Yeah..." "So?" "Well, if you think about it, I think you'll see the object of your obsession is invariably something negative which you have no control over." "Yeah, but how many people do you think run around obsessing over how great and how happy things are?" "You know, I mean, maybe they do, but I don't think they're in therapy." "Anyway... bein' happy isn't all that great." "I mean, the last time I was really happy, I got so fat." "I must've put on 25 pounds." "I thought John was gonna have a stroke." " So, what are you worried about?" " What am I looking at here?" " Is this a mistake?" " Depends on your point of view." "I don't think so." "In fact, I'm gonna tell you a little secret." "As soon as you get a ring on your finger, you start getting spectacular attention" " from the opposite gender." " That's bullshit!" "Seriously." "I wish I had Super Bowl seats for every time some filly had come up and talked to me without the slightest provocation." " It's just marvellous." " That happened before you got married." "No, no, no." "It never happened before I got married." "If I'd known, I'd have bought a ring when I was 18 and saved myself..." "Yeah, right!" "...a lot of time and money." "No, I wish somebody'd clued me in." "I'm tellin' you." "It's too weird." "Oh, shit, I gotta be someplace." " So, racquetball Thursday, right?" " How about 7.30?" " Yeah, fine." "See you later." "Bye." " Bye-bye." " Yes, sir?" " Janet." "Reschedule Kirkland for, uh, Friday, 1.30." " Yes, sir." " All right." "Are you still keeping these thoughts from John?" "Yeah." "Are you afraid of his finding you silly at thinking these things?" "No, it's not that." "It's just..." " I'm really angry at him right now." " Why?" "He invited this college friend of his to stay at our house and didn't even ask me." "I'm gonna say yes, of course, but... you know, it just would've been nice to have been asked." "What upsets you about that?" "I guess it makes me angry because I can't justify being' angry." "It's his house." "He pays the mortgage." "Yes, but he asked you to quit your job, and you do have housework." "Yeah." "I have housework." "That's true." "This unexpected guest notwithstanding, how are things with John?" "Oh, they're fine." "Ex cept for I'm going through this thing where I don't want him to touch me, but..." "When did you begin having this feeling?" "Well..." "last week." "I don't know, I just..." "I got this really strange feelin', and... ugh... just didn't want him to touch me." "Prior to this feeling, were you comfortable with contact with John?" "Oh, yeah." "Sure." "Yeah." "Ex cept for... well..." "I've never really been that much into sex." "I mean, I like it and everything, but..." "You know, I just don't think it's such a big deal, and..." "I wouldn't miss it, you know, kinda thing." "But lately I've just... been kinda curious about how things have slacked off." "Perhaps he senses your hesitance at being touched." "But that's the weird thing, because he started not touching me before I started feelin' like that." "Ah." "I mean, I'm sure he probably wishes that I would initiate things once in a while, and I would, ex cept for it just never occurs to me, and... well, the few times I have felt like it I was by myself." "Did you do anything?" "What do you mean?" "Did you masturbate?" "Oh!" "Oh." "Oh." "God, no." "No." "Mm-mm." "I take it from your response that you never masturbate." "Well..." "I tried once." "It just seems so stupid!" "I don't know!" "It just seemed like a dumb thing to do, and..." "God, and then I started worrying that my dead grandfather was watching me, and... It seemed so stupid, especially when you don't know what to do with the garbage." "Oh, so it was recently when you tried this?" "Oh, well, it was kind of recently, but not... real recently." "I am just not up to havin' a guest in the house." "I gotta go." "I gotta go to the office." "I gotta get back to the office." "I only get one today?" "Gee, how ex citing." "I already skipped one meeting." "I gotta get back." "Look, John, if you wanna leave, leave." "My life doesn't revolve around these little get-togethers." "Don't flatter yourself." "Don't feel like you gotta treat me with kid gloves." "Tell me how you really feel." "Listen, I got a friend comin' into town, an old friend I haven't seen in years." "From what I can tell, I think he's a little lost." "I think I may have to spend a little time with him." "Mm-hm." "Meaning we'll have to cool it for a while?" " Yeah." " Yeah." "I wish you'd quit that bartending job of yours." "Why?" "I hate the thought of all those guys hitting' on you." "I can handle it." "I'm sure." "Besides, the money is good, and some of the guys are cute." "And you are in no position to be jealous." "Who said I was jealous?" "I did." "You know, I'd like to do it at your house sometime." "I must admit, the idea of doin' it in my sister's bed gives me a perverse thrill." "I wish I could just come right out and tell everyone Ann's a lousy lay." "The beautiful, the popular Ann Bishop Millaney." " Could be risky." " How about I just start a rumour, then?" " No, no, I mean doin' it at my house." " Afraid of gettin' caught?" "Yeah!" "You should be." " Can I meet this friend of yours?" " Who, Graham?" "I gotta tell you, we were very close many years ago, but I..." "I think we're very different now." " Yes?" " Ann?" "Uh, my name is Graham Dalton." " Oh!" "Yeah, sure." " May I use your bathroom?" "Uh-huh." "Come on in." " Where is it?" " Oh, back there to the left." "I'm sorry." "Do you like strawberries?" "I brought you some." "Thank you." "That's real sweet." "Hi." "Um, John Millaney, please." "This is his wife." "That's all right." "Thank you." "Well." " That was quick." " False alarm." "Have a seat." "I'm sorry, we don't let people smoke in the house." " But if you'd like to, we could go outside." " Oh, no, no, no, no, no." "No, no." "I..." "I can wait." "I'm..." " Do you have any other things?" " Yes." "Oh, you mean to bring in?" "No." "I do have some other things, but I don't..." "This is all I need to stay here." "Have you ever been on television?" "Television?" "No, no." "Why?" "I was just curious." "Graham." "That's an unusual name." "Yeah." "Yeah, I, uh..." "I guess it is." "My mother is a complete Anglophile." "Anything British makes her drool like a baby." "So she, you know, I think she heard the name in a movie or something." "She's a prisoner of public television now." "How do you like being married?" "I like it just fine." "What about it do you like?" "I..." " I don't mean to be critical." "I'm curious." " No, no, no, no." "That's OK." "Uh..." "Well... you know the cliche about the security of it?" "Well, that's true." "And, um, we own this house." "It's a nice house." "And..." "John was just made junior partner, and I really like that." "You know, I like the fact that he's just not, you know, freelance or whatever." "Yes." "So, how long has it been since you've seen John?" " Nine years." " Nine years?" "Yeah." "I was surprised he invited me to stay here until I found a place." " Didn't you know him very well?" " Oh, no, I knew him very well." "John and I... were very much alike." "Really?" "That's kinda hard to believe." "I mean, you just seem so different now." "Yeah." "Well, I would imagine we are pretty different now." " I'm ready to use the bathroom, finally." " OK." "Graham." "I gotta tell you, I almost called the cops when I saw you today." "I thought to myself "This couldn't possibly be the same guy that once held private services in the back of the chapel on a weekly basis"." " You did that?" " Everybody has a past." "That's mine, so..." "So, what's with the get-up?" " Somebody die, or...?" " John!" " I'm sorry." "Did...?" "I'm sorry." " No, no, no." "Nobody died." " So..." " I mean... what do you think the Greeks'd think of this rather sombre attire?" "I don't know." " Dinner was very good." " Yeah, it wasn't bad, honey." "Usually Ann achieves a kinda critical mass with the salt, but, uh, tonight was..." "I always tell her, you can always add more, but you can't take it away." "Yeah, you say that, don't you?" " So, do you have family here?" " Mm." "Mother, father, my sister." " Sister older or younger?" " Younger." "Are you close?" "I'm sorry." "I'm..." "I'm prying again." "I'm sorry." "Were you prying before?" "I was grilling Ann about your marriage." " How'd it go?" " Well, I..." "Very well." "Uh..." "So, I was asking about your sister." "Yeah." "Well..." "We get along all right, it's just that, uh..." "Well, I think she's an extrovert." "I just think she's loud." "She probably wouldn't agree." "No, I mean, definitely wouldn't agree." "So, listen, are you gonna see Elizabeth while you're here?" "Uh..." "I don't know." " Who's Elizabeth?" " A girl Graham dated in school." "Well after the chapel episodes." "She still lives here, to the best of my knowledge." "So Graham and I were talking about apartments, and I told him that they've got lovely little apartments in the Garden District." " And they got nice garage apartments..." " There's critical crime in that district." " Oh, John, come on, that is not true." " No." "There are..." "I don't know what kind of place you're lookin' for." "There's plenty of apartments..." " ...in any one place." " I'm sorry?" "No, I just..." "Right now I have one key, you know, everything I own is in the car." "I like that." "If I get an apartment, that's two keys." "If I get a job, you know, I might have to open or close." "That's more keys." "I buy some stuff, I'm afraid it's gonna get ripped off, and I get more keys." " I just like having the one key." "It's clean." " You don't have to worry about losin' 'em." "Get rid of the car when you get the apartment." "Still one key." "I like having the car." "You know?" "The car's important." "You gotta be mobile." "In case you have to leave someplace in a hurry?" "Yeah, or go someplace in a hurry." "Ex cuse me." " Do you want some help?" " No, no, really, I'm fine." "There's not that much to do." "Graham, do you pay taxes?" "Yeah, I pay taxes." "Yeah, I pay taxes." "What do you mean?" "You don't pay taxes, you're a liar." "I'm not a liar." "Liars are the second-lowest form of human being on the planet." " What's the first?" " Lawyers." "Oh." "That's you, honey." "Annie, why don't you go with Graham to hunt for apartments?" "Show him how the city's changed." " Would you mind, Graham?" " No, I'd love that." " I'd like that, too." "Let's do that." " All right." "How about tomorrow?" " That'd be great." " Good." "One key, huh?" "Great idea." " Yeah." " Cynthia, John." "Meet me at my house in exactly one hour." "You are scum." "I'll be there." "As you can see, there's plenty of room for two." "No, it'll just be me." " Are you a student?" " No." "You can hang a shower curtain in the bath." "Make sure you put somethin' in the tub so you won't fall." "You said about 350?" "Yeah." "And, uh, plus the first and the last months' rent." " All right." "Will you lease month to month?" " Not for 350." "How about 400?" "I could live with that." "I could live with that." " OK." "It's a deal." " All right." " Ready?" " Yeah." " John?" " In here." "Well, ain't you a picture?" "Well, do you like it?" "It's lovely." "Is it for me?" "Yeah, it's for you." "Is that for me?" "Yeah, that's for you." "You're amazing, dear." "Can I tell you something personal?" "It's up to you." "Can I tell you something personal?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Well, you gotta go first." "OK." "I think that, um..." "I think that sex is overrated." "I think that people place far too much importance on it." "And I think that stuff about women wanting' it just as bad as men is crap." "I think they want it, I just don't think they want it for the reason men think they do." "I'm getting confused." " Do you understand what I'm...?" " Yeah." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Yeah, I remember reading somewhere that men learn to love the person that they're attracted to," "and that women become more and more attracted to the person that they love." "God, that's... that's beautiful." "That's really beautiful." "I like that." "Oh, I'm just quoting." "So, are you gonna tell me something personal?" " Do you want me to?" " Yeah." "Yeah, I do." "I don't want it to be something gross, about some scar." "I want it to be something really personal, about yourself." "All right." "OK." " I'm impotent." " You're what?" " lmpotent." " You are?" "Yeah." "I mean, like, well, I can't..." "I can't get an erection..." "in the presence of another person." "So, for all practical purposes, I'm impotent." "Does that bother you?" "No." "Does it make you feel self-conscious?" "Not usually." "No." "Uh..." "Yeah, I'm self-conscious." "Not in the same way that you are, though." " Me?" "Me?" "You think I'm self-conscious?" " Well..." "I been watching you." "I watch you eat, you know, I watch you speak, watch you move, and I see somebody who is extremely aware of people looking at you." " My therapist..." " You're in therapy?" "Aren't you?" "No." "I..." "No, I'm not." "I was a miserable failure in therapy." " So you don't believe in therapy?" " No, I believe in it for some people." "I don't know, it was, you know, silly for me." "I was confused going in." "So I just formed my own theory that you should never take advice from someone that doesn't know you intimately." "Well, I know my therapist intimately." " You've had sex with your therapist?" " No!" " No." "No." " Oh, no, I'm sorry." "That's what I meant." "Somebody you've had sex with." "Oh." "I'm..." "I don't understand." "I mean, how would you know?" " I mean, you know." "How...?" " Oh, no." "I wasn't always impotent." "Oh." "Oh, OK." "So, let me see." "You said, um... you said that I should never take advice from someone that I haven't had sex with, right?" " Basically." " Right." "And, uh, we haven't had sex." " Right?" " No." "So I guess from your own advice, I shouldn't take your advice." " I wouldn't." " You wouldn't?" "OK." "All right." " Drive safely." " Yeah, right." " How was your weekend?" " It was OK." " Did you confront John about the visitor?" " The visitor?" "The friend of John's that was staying at your house." " Graham." " Graham." "Yeah." "I mean... no." "That actually turned out to be interesting." "You know, I was expecting him to be just like John." "You know, cos they went to school together and everything." "You know, talking about getting drunk together and secret handshakes and..." "He turned out to be really this... character." "He's kind of arty." "But OK." "Is he still at your house?" "No." "No." "No." "He's gone." "So where's he from?" "I don't know." "He, uh, used to live in New York and Philadelphia." "I think he just kinda travels around." "Must be nice." "So, what's he like?" "Is he like John?" "No." "I don't think John likes him any more." "Says he thinks he's gotten kinda strange." "Is he?" "Strange, I mean?" "No." "I mean, if I saw him on the street I might think so, but after talkin' to him, I'd just say he's kinda unusual." "Mm-hm." "So, what's he look like?" "Why?" " I just wanna know, is all." " Why, so you can go after him?" "Jesus, Ann, get a life." "I just asked what he looked like." "Besides, even if I decide to fuck his brains out, what business is that of yours?" " Why do you have to say that?" " Say what?" "You know what." "You say it just to irritate me." "I say it because it's descriptive." "He doesn't strike me as a person who would go in for that kinda thing." " Ann, you always underestimate me." " I wonder why." "I think you're afraid to put us in the same room." "You're afraid he'd be drawn to me." "Really, Cynthia, I don't think he's your type." "My type?" "How would you know what my type is?" "Oh, I have a pretty good idea." "Ann, you don't have a clue." "Look, I don't even know why we're discussing' this." "I mean, I'll just go over and call him myself." "He doesn't have a phone." "Well, I'll call him when he does." "He won't." "What are you talkin' about?" "He doesn't like to talk on the phone." "He's not getting a phone." "Oh, please." "OK, so give me the Zen master's address." "I'll think of a reason to stop by." "Please, just let me talk to him first." "Why?" "Just gimme the address." "You won't even have to be involved." "I don't feel right just giving you the address so you can go over there and..." " And what?" " Do whatever it is you do." ""Do whatever it is you do"?" "Listen to the way you talk." " I talk fine." " Thank you, I was still smoking that." "What'd you lose?" "That goddamn pearl earring." "It cost me a fucking fortune." "I must've left it somewhere." "So, what are you gettin' Momma for her birthday?" "I don't know." "I'll get her a card or somethin'." " A card for her 50th birthday?" " Yeah, what's wrong with that?" "Well, the woman gave birth to you." "I think you might be givin' her..." "Will you stop?" "Jesus." " I just thought that, you know, maybe..." " OK, Ann." "OK." "How about this?" "You get her something nice, and I'll pay for half." " All right?" " Fine." "Fine." "Fine." "OK." "Now, if you'll pardon me, I have to go to work." "What is the most unusual location you've ever masturbated in?" "Well... I, um..." "One time I was flying from Los Angeles to, um, to New York." "And I was..." "You know, it was a really crowded flight and I was..." "I was sitting in the middle." "I didn't get a window, I didn't get an aisle." "It was really funny, and I was..." "I was just bored." "My magazines were just boring." "I think I had, like, a woman's magazine." "And they touch on a lot of sexual issues and stuff." "And I was thinking to myself" ""God, that's what I need." "I need a little..." "something to take my mind off this trip."" "So, I was just, you know, just thinking away, and then I just..." "I just did it on the plane." "Just between these two people." " Nobody knew." "How were you able to not betray what was going on to the people around you?" "Well, you know, I have really strong muscles." "It's open!" " Hi!" " Hello, Ann." " I hope I'm not botherin' you." " No, no." " I would've phoned." "You busy?" " No, no." "I can finish later." "I just wanted to see what the apartment looked like with furniture." "Yeah, well, I'm afraid there's not much to see." "I'm sort of cultivating this minimalist vibe." " You could use a bookshelf." " Yeah?" "Yeah, you think so?" "They're... you know, they're all library books." " What are these?" " Uh, those are videotapes." "I can see that." "Of what?" "It's a personal project I've been workin' on." "What kind of personal project?" " What?" " What kind of personal project?" "Uh, a personal project like anyone else's personal project." "Mine's just a little more..." "personal, I guess." "Who's Donna?" " What?" " Donna." "It says "Donna" here on the tape." "Donna was a girl I knew in Florida." "Oh, you went out with her?" "No, not really." "Why do these tapes all have women's names on 'em?" "Well, I enjoy interviewing women more than men." " It's iced tea." " Thanks." " I'm sorry, do you want some lemon?" " No, this is perfect." "So, all of these are... are interviews, huh?" " Uh, yes." " Can we watch one?" "No, I'd..." "No." "Why not?" "Well, I promised each of the subjects that no one would see the videotapes ex cept for me." "What are the interviews about?" "The interviews are about sex." "Sex?" "What about sex?" "Uh, everything about sex." "Like what?" "What they've done, what they do, what they want to do but are afraid to ask for, what they wouldn't do even if asked." "Anything I can think of." "Oh, your ice." " You just ask them questions?" " Yes." "And they answer 'em?" "Yeah." "Uh..." "Mostly." "Sometimes they do things." " To you?" " No, uh... for the camera." " Graham, this is just so..." " I'm sorry this came up." "No, I'm sorry." "I'm sorry this came up, and..." " I'm..." "I'm gonna go." " Here, I'll take it." " OK." "Yeah." "All right." " Bye." "He doesn't want you to come over." "What do you mean?" "Did you tell him about me?" " No, I didn't." " Why not?" " Look, Cynthia, I didn't have time." " Well, why?" "John's right." "He's strange and you don't wanna get involved with him." "What happened over there?" " Did he make a pass at you?" " No." "Well, what's this "strange" bullshit all of a sudden?" "Is he drowning' puppies?" "It's nothin' like that, OK?" " Well, what?" "Is he dangerous?" " No." "Not physically." " Well, what, then?" " I don't wanna talk about it." " Then why did you call me?" " I don't know." " Hello?" " Cynthia, John." "Not today." "I've got other plans." "Oh." "Well, when, then?" "How about inviting me over to dinner?" " You know what I mean." " Yeah, I know what you mean." " It's open." " Hi." " Hello." " Can I help you?" " I'm Cynthia Bishop." " Do I know you?" "I don't..." " I'm Ann Millaney's sister." "The extrovert." "She must have been in a good mood." "She usually calls me loud." "Yeah, she called you that, too." "So, uh, what are you doin' here?" " You want me to leave?" " No, I just wanna know why you're here." "Well, like I said, Ann is my sister." "Sisters talk." "You can imagine the rest." "No, I think it's probably better if I don't characterise that conversation that I didn't hear." "I don't have any idea, really, what you or Ann said about me or anything else." " Do you want some iced tea?" " Sure." "I don't have any lemons." "The last time I saw Ann she left here very confused, I'd say, and upset." "She still is." "So, are you here to make me feel bad for makin' her feel bad?" "No." " She didn't tell you why she was upset?" " No." "Thanks." "So, I don't understand what made you wanna come here." "I can't imagine Ann painted a very flattering portrait of me." "Yeah, well, see, um, I don't really listen to Ann when it comes to men." "I mean, look at John, for Christ's sake." "But then, you went to school with him, didn't you?" "You're probably friends or somethin'." "No." "No, I think John is a liar." "I think you're right." "So come on, I came all the way over here to find out what got Ann so spooked." "Why don't you tell me what happened?" ""Spooked"?" "The videotapes are what got Ann so spooked." "Oh." "I think I get it." "Oh, yeah?" "What do you get?" "If Ann got freaked out by these, they must be somethin' sexual." "Are these tapes of you havin' sex with these girls?" " No, not exactly." " Either you are or you aren't." "Which is it?" " Why don't you let me tape you?" " Doin' what?" " Talking." " About what?" "About sex." "Your sexual history, sexual preferences." " What makes you think I'd discuss that?" " Nothing." " And you just wanna ask me questions?" " I just wanna ask you questions." " That's all?" " That's all." "Is this how you get off?" "Tapin' women talkin' about their sexual experiences?" " Yes." " Would anyone else see the tape?" "Absolutely not." "Nobody else sees the tapes ex cept for me." "How long will it take?" "Well, that depends on you." "One woman used up only three minutes." "And another used three two-hour tapes." "How do we start?" "I turn on the camera and you start talking." "Do I sit or stand?" " What do you prefer?" " I'd prefer to sit." "Are you ready?" "OK, I'm recording." " So tell me your name." " Cynthia..." "Patrice..." "Bishop." " You can speak in a normal voice." " OK." "So, describe for me your first sexual experience." "Um..." "First sexual experience or first time I had intercourse?" " First sexual experience." " Sexual experience." "I was... uh... eight." "And, uh..." "Is this the kinda thing that...?" "Yeah, OK." "I was eight years old, and, um, Michael Green, who was also eight, asked if he could watch me take a pee." "And I said he could if I could watch him take one, too." "So we went to the woods behind my house." "And I got this feeling he was chickenin' out cos he kept sayin' "Ladies first!"" "So I pulled down my little panties and urinated, and he ran away before I even finished." "Was it a topic of conversation between you after that?" "No!" "He kind of avoided me for the rest of the summer, and then his family moved away." "To Cleveland, actually." "What a shame." "When did you finally see a penis?" "When I was 14." "So, what'd you think?" "Was it what you expected it to be?" "No." "Not really." "I..." "I didn't..." "I sorta pictured it, um..." "I didn't think it would have veins or ridges or anything." "I just thought it would be smooth, like a test tube." "It's weird, thinking about it now." "The... organ itself seemed like a separate thing, a separate entity to me." "I mean, when he finally pulled it out and I could look at it and touch it," "I forgot that there was a guy attached to it." "I remember literally being startled when the guy spoke to me." " What did he say?" " He said my hand felt good." "Then what happened?" "And..." "Then I started movin' my hand, and then he stopped talkin'." " Yeah?" " John, Cynthia." " How'd you get through?" " I told Janet I was Ann." "Ah." "She bought it?" "Well, obviously." "Look..." "I want to see you." " Ah." "When?" " Right now." "I don't know if I can do that." "I got a client waiting." "I've already rescheduled him once." "I'd have to do some heavy-duty juggling." "Then get those balls in the air and get your butt over here." " Yes, sir?" " Janet." "Listen, I want you to reschedule Kirkland." "I know, I know." "See if he can come in Monday, any time." "Tell him, uh..." "Tell him, uh..." " Family crisis." "Family crisis." " OK." " I'll slip out the back." " Yes, sir." "All right." "Bye." "Would you like me to take my skirt off?" "If you wish." "You're not wearing any underwear." "Do you like the way I look?" "Yes." "Do you think I'm pretty?" "Yes." "Prettier than Ann?" "Different." "John and Ann don't have sex any more." "Is that what he tells you?" "He doesn't have to tell me." "You're on fire today." "Yes." "You can go now." "What kind of questions?" "Questions... about... sex." "Well, what did he ask, exactly?" "Well, I don't wanna tell you, exactly." "You let a total stranger record your sexual life, but you won't tell your own sister?" " Apparently." " Did he ask you to take your clothes off?" "Did he ask me to take my clothes off?" "No, he didn't." " Did you take your clothes off?" " Yes." " Cynthia!" " What?" " Why did you do that?" " Because I wanted to." " But why did you want to?" " Because I wanted him to see me." "You're crazy." "He could be bouncin' it off some satellite." " Some horny old men could be watchin'." " Ann!" "He wouldn't do that." " You don't know that for sure." " Well, it's too late now, isn't it?" " Did he touch you?" " No." " Did you touch him?" " No." "Did anybody touch anybody?" "Well, yes." "Don't tell me." "Don't tell me." "Don't tell me." "You didn't." " I did." " You didn't." " I did!" " Oh, my God." "Cynthia!" "You're in trouble." "Listen to you." "You sound like Momma." "What are you talkin' about?" "God, Cynthia." " I couldn't do that in front of John." " You couldn't do it, period." " I mean, you don't even know him." " I feel like I do." "You don't." "You can't trust him." "He's perverted." "I don't understand why this freaks you out so much." "You didn't do it, I did, and if it doesn't bother me, why should it bother you?" " I don't wanna talk about it." " OK, then, don't." "Are... are you an assassin?" " Ex cuse me?" " You're just an errand boy, sent by the grocer to collect the bill." "It's my Brando." "That's pretty good, isn't it?" "Marlon Brando." "It's great." "Pardon me." "OK." "I was thinkin' we needed time apart." "Maybe you should be there for a while." "Hi." "So, why don't you get an answering machine?" " There's a phone here." " It's busy." "Well, why don't you keep tryin'?" "OK." " Well, here it is." " What is it?" " It's a sundress." " Looks like a tablecloth." " It does not." " Why would she want a sundress?" "She's got spots on her shoulders and varicose veins." " Well, missy thing, so will you someday." " When I do, I won't wear sundresses." " God, Cynthia..." " Hold on." " Bayou." " Cynthia, John." " Would you like to speak with your wife?" " What's she doin' there?" "Showing me a present she and I are buying your mother-in-law." "Oh." "Great." "So, when can I see you?" "I don't know." "I'm not sure I can duplicate the intensity I had the other day." "Nothin' wrong with trying." "I don't think my sister would agree." "Do you want me to stop calling?" " Look, I'll call you." "OK?" " Roger." "This is too much." "I'm wearing red, you're wearing red." "That's quite a coincidence..." " Look, I'm married." " Really?" "Are you very married?" " Married enough." " Oh." "Oh." " I see." "Well, that shouldn't stop us..." " I'm just here to see my sister." "OK?" "Oh, really?" "Who's your sister?" "Is she married?" "So, um, what's my share of the dress?" " 32.50." " It's a nice dress." " Thanks." "I thought so, too." " Looks like a tablecloth." "Keep the change." "And, Ann, don't worry about the dress." "I'm sure she'll like it." "Yeah." "I think it'll..." "Oh, you have to go?" "OK." "Goodbye." "I'll see you later." "I'll call you!" "Bye." "John?" "Mm?" " John?" "I called you last Monday at 3.30 and they said you weren't in." "Do you remember where you were?" "On Monday?" "Uh..." "Last Monday?" "Oh, I had a late lunch." "So, who'd you have lunch with?" "I ate by myself." "Come on." " Is there somethin' wrong?" " Are you havin' an affair?" "Jesus Christ!" "I have a late lunch by myself and now I'm fuckin' somebody?" " Well, are you?" " No, I'm not." "God, I'm offended at the accusation." "Come on." "If I'm right, I wanna know." "I don't want you to lie." "I'd be upset, but I'd be more upset if you lied to me." "Well, there's nothin' to know." "I can't tell you how upset I'll be if you lie to me." "This is paranoia." "I mean... if anybody should be paranoid, I should be." "Here, every time I try to touch you, you act as if I'm dipped in shit." "I think there are a lot of women out there that'd be glad to have a young, straight male makin' a pretty good living" "beside 'em in bed with a... with a hard-on." " My sister, for one." " For God's sake, Ann." " Is that who it is?" " Ann, I'm not fucking your sister." "I don't find her that attractive, for one thing." " Is that supposed to comfort me?" " No, I'm just saying." "I'm just saying I didn't get paranoid when you didn't wanna make love to me." "I could have assumed that you didn't want to because you were having an affair." " I'm not." " Well, I'm not either." "Now, come on." " Then why don't I believe you?" " Oh, look." "This is ridiculous." " Maybe when you have evidence..." " There's evidence?" "That's not what I'm saying." "I'm just saying that we shouldn't not ever talk, just don't give me conjecture and intuition." " Always a lawyer." " Goddamn right." "I mean, can you imagine? "Your Honour, I'm positive the man is guilty."" " "I can't place him at the scene..."" " All right." " "But I have this strong feeling..."" " All right." "You made your point." "OK." "All right." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "I'm just under a lot of pressure with this... this Kirkland thing." "I mean, you know it's my first big case as junior partner." "I work all day and I come home." "I look forward to seeing you." "It hurts that you'd accuse me like that." "I'm sorry." "What?" "Come on." "I've just got all this time on my hands, and I just sit around and start inventing these, like, intricate scenarios." "And then I don't want to have wasted all my time, so I wanna believe 'em." " Isn't therapy helping' at all?" " Oh, John, I don't know." "I just feel so stupid sittin' talking' about my little problems when I know those poor children are starving." "Well..." "Quitting your therapy's not gonna..." "not gonna feed the children in Ethiopia." "I know." "You never used to say the word "fucking"." "Fuck." "It's so stupid, I have a hard time believing you did it." " What's so stupid about it?" " Well, you..." " You don't even know the guy." " Well, you know him." "He's a friend of yours." "Do you think he can be trusted?" "I don't know." "I don't know." "From what you've told me, I don't know." "I shoulda known when he showed up dressed like some undertaker for the art world." "I like the way he dresses." "What if this tape gets into the wrong hands?" ""The wrong hands"?" "John, we are not talking about military secrets here." "They're just tapes he makes so he can sit around and get off." "And he doesn't have sex with any of them?" "They just talk?" "They just sit around and talk." "I could almost understand it if he had sex with them." "I mean, almost." "Why doesn't he just buy some magazines or some porno movies or somethin'?" "Doesn't work." "He has to know the people." "He has to be able to interact with them." "Interact?" "Whatever that means." "Did you have to masturbate in front of him?" "I felt like it." "Goddamn." "You and Ann make such a big deal out of this." " You told Ann about this?" " She is my sister." " I tell her almost everything." " I wish you hadn't." "It's just something I'd prefer she didn't have to know about." " She's a grown-up." "She can handle it." " Ann..." " Ann is just very..." " Hung up." " It just wasn't a smart thing to do." " Oh, God!" "Did you sign any sort of paper, or did he have a contract with you saying that he wouldn't broadcast these things?" "No, sir." "You realise you have no recourse legally? It's not funny." "It's not funny, Cynthia." "These tapes could show up anywhere." "They won't." "I trust him." "You trust him?" "That's funny." "Yeah, I do." "A hell of a lot more than I trust you." " What do you mean?" " Just what I said." "I'd trust him before I'd trust you." " It hurts that you say that to me." " You're fucking your wife's sister." "You're a liar." "But at least I know that." "I know, I know." "Second-lowest form of human being." "And the first." " What are you talking about?" " Nothing." "You're lying to Ann, too." "Yeah, right, but I didn't take a vow in front of God and everyone to be faithful to Ann." "Look, are we gonna do it or not?" "Actually... no." "I've changed my mind." "I shouldn't have called." "Well, I'm here now." "I need to do somethin'." "Would you like to help me straighten up?" "Jesus!" "Is there one chair in this place that works?" "Well, why don't you go sit somewhere else?" "Come on, John." "You should be happy." "We've gone this far without Ann findin' out." "I'm makin' it real easy on you." " Just walk out of here." " Did he put you up to this?" " Who?" " Graham." "No, he didn't put me up to this." "Jesus, I don't need people to tell me what to do." "I've just been thinkin', that's all." "Now just..." "leave." "Maybe I don't wanna leave." "Maybe I wanna talk." "John, we don't have anything to talk about." "Yeah, you're right." "Things are gettin' complicated." "No, they're gettin' real simple." "It's open!" "Hello." "Want something to drink?" "Yeah, thanks." "I'm sorry, I don't have any iced tea left." "Thank you." "John and Cynthia have been... fucking." "Yes, I know." " You know?" " Yes." "How did you know?" "She said it on her tape." "Thanks for telling me." "I really appreciate it." "Well, I..." "I haven't seen you." "And I don't think I would've told you even if I had seen you." "Why not?" "Because it's not really my place." "My life is shit." "It's just shit." "Nothing's what I thought it was." "John's a bastard." "Let's make a videotape." "No, I..." " I don't think that's a good idea." " Why not?" "Because I don't think it's a choice that you'd make in a normal frame of mind." "And what would you know about a normal frame of mind?" "That's a good question." " So, what do you have to do to get ready?" " Uh..." "Load a tape and turn on the camera." "Do it." "So, where do you get your money from, for rent, and tapes, and stuff like that?" "Underneath my mattress." "And what are you gonna do when this money runs out?" "It won't." "Are you comfortable there?" "Yeah, I'm comfortable." "OK, I'm recording." "Tell me your name." "Ann Bishop Millaney." "Margaret." "Hi, it's John." "Fine." "Listen, have you seen Ann at all today?" "This afternoon?" "Uh..." "Well, no, I just..." "She's home." "Bye-bye." "Everything's fine." "Thanks." "Bye." "Thank God." "You had me worried sick." "I come home, the door is open, the car is gone." "I thought you'd been abducted by some mad fucker." " Are you all right?" " I want out of this marriage." "What?" "I... want... out... of this marriage." "Why?" "Why?" "You're asking me why?" "I'm married to you and you want out of this marriage." "I think you could tell me that." "Fuck you." "Fuck you." "All right." " Can you tell me where you went?" " I drove around." " Then I went over to Graham's." " Graham's?" "Graham." "Goddamn that son of a bitch!" "The backstabbing' son of a..." "Oh, Mr Honesty, huh?" "Mr Apostle of Truth!" "Well, I know you didn't fuck him." "Did you make one of these goddamn videotapes?" "Annie... answer me, goddammit." "Goddammit, answer me." "Did you?" " Yes, I did." " Ah!" "God!" "Don't you touch him!" "OK." "I'm gonna..." " What?" "Hello?" "John?" "What the hell are you doing here?" "What are you doing?" "OK, I'm recording." "Tell me your name." "Ann..." "Bishop..." "Millaney." "So, what do you wanna talk about?" " What do you usually talk about?" " Sex." "OK." "Let's talk about sex." "Do you have sex?" "Not very often, no." "When you do, who usually initiates it?" "He does." "Is the sex satisfying?" "I don't know." "I don't know." "I don't know what you mean." "Do you have orgasms?" "I don't think so." "I mean, I guess, since I'm not sure, that I've never had one." "Have you ever thought about having sex with someone other than your husband?" "Here we go." "Here we go." " Why don't we stop?" " No." "I don't wanna stop." "Have you ever thought about having sex with someone other than your husband?" "I've thought about it." " Did you act on it?" " No." "Why not?" "Because that's how Cynthia thinks." "I hate it when I have feelings that she has." "It bothers me when I think about men, because I know that's the way she thinks." "What other men have you thought about?" "I thought about you." " Have you thought about me?" " Yes." "What did you think?" "I thought about what you would look like having an orgasm." "I'd like to know what I look like havin' an orgasm." "Can you do that?" "Give a woman an orgasm?" "Yes." "Could you do that for me?" " No." " Why not?" "Because I can't." " Can't or won't?" " I can't because I won't." " You said you weren't always impotent." " No." "Yeah, that's correct." " So you have had sex." " Yes." "So, what happened?" "Was it so bad it turned you off, or...?" " No, that wasn't the problem." " What was the problem?" "I was the problem." "I was a..." "I was a pathological liar." "Or I am, I should say." "The lying is..." "Lying is like alcoholism, you're continually recovering." "So that's it?" "You lied?" " That was part of it." " So, what else happened?" "Well, at that time, uh..." "I..." "I used to express my feelings nonverbally," "and often scared people that were close to me." "Are you still like that?" "No." "No." "So you're never gonna make love again?" "I don't..." "I haven't made any plans, so..." " If you were in love with me, would you?" " I'm not in love with you." " But if you were?" " I can't answer that." " Why not?" " I told you." " But I don't understand." " Ann, forget about the sex, you know?" "I..." "I'm not the same person that I was..." "even remotely, you know." "I'm different in so many ways." "It'd have a profound effect on the way that I relate to other people, communicate." "This, for instance." "The way she and I are talking, it could never have been possible." ""She"? "The way she..." "she and I are talking"?" " "She"?" "Who's "she"?" " I'm sorry, I was..." " That isn't what I was..." " She's Elizabeth?" "Is that who it is?" "Is that the girl that John talked about?" "Is that who it is?" " I guess." "I..." "I'm sorry." " So, you're still in contact with her?" " With Elizabeth?" " No." "I'm..." "What do you think Elizabeth is gonna think about all these videotapes?" "I can't imagine her bein' too understanding." "But you're gonna tell her about them, right, since you don't lie any more?" "As I said, I don't know what I'm gonna do, exactly." "I mean... perhaps I won't do anything." "So, you just came back here so that you could think about it?" "No, I moved back here for some..." "A sense of closure, you know?" "Resolution of some sort." "I wanted somebody who was very important to me to understand that." "That's..." "That's pathetic." "I mean, you can't just..." "Oh, my God, Graham." "You just can't walk up to her and show her you've changed like it's some gift or somethin'." "And look what you've changed into." "Nine years." "Nine years." "And this is what you come up with." "Is this what you wanna be the rest of your life?" "Why are you doin' this?" "Can you tell me that?" "Why are you doin' this to yourself?" " Are you gonna answer me?" " Please, don't do that." " Why not?" " Don't do that." "I wanna ask a few questions, like why do you tape women talkin' about sex?" "Why do you do that?" "Can you tell me why?" "Come on." "I'm just gonna keep askin'." "I don't find turning the tables very interesting." "Well, I do." "Tell me why, Graham." " Why?" " What?" "What?" "What do you want me to tell you?" ""Tell me why?" Why?" "Ann, you don't even know who I am." "You don't have the slightest idea who I am." "Am I supposed to recount all the points in my life leading up to this moment and just hope that it's coherent, that it makes some sort of sense to you?" "It doesn't make any sense to me." "You know, I was there." "I don't have the slightest idea who I am, and I'm supposed to be able to explain it to you?" "And why?" "You tell me why." "Why do I have to explain myself to you?" "Because maybe I can help you." " Help me with what?" " Your problem." "My problem?" "Do I have a problem?" "I look around me in this town and I see John and Cynthia and you, and I..." "I feel comparatively healthy." "You've got a problem." "You're right." "I've got a lot of problems." "But they belong to me." "You think they're yours, but they're not." "Everybody that walks in that door becomes part of your problem." "Anybody that comes in contact with you." "I didn't wanna be part of your problem, but I am." "I'm leavin' my husband, and maybe I would have anyway, but the fact is that I'm doin' it now." "And part of it's because of you." "You've had an effect on my life." "This isn't supposed to happen." "I've spent nine years structuring my life so that this didn't happen." "You know, I never told you this, cos I knew it'd crush you." "But now..." "I fucked Elizabeth." "Before you broke up." "Before you were havin' trouble, even." "She's no saint." "She was good in bed." "She could keep a secret." "That's about all I can say about her." " I gotta make a call." " Yeah, sure." " Kirkland's office." " John Millaney for Brian Kirkland." " Just one moment, please." " All right." "Anyway, as I've always said, work is critical." "I can be happy without a marriage, but if you take away my work, that's different." "And if Ann can't handle that..." " Well, that's her problem." " Mr Millaney?" " Yeah." " Mr DeForest would like to see you." "All right." "In a minute." "I'm on with a client." " He said immediately." " All right." "Jesus." " Mr Millaney?" " Yeah?" "Mr Kirkland asked me to inform you he's obtained representation elsewhere, and that if you have a message for Mr Kirkland to leave it with me." "Thank you." "Um..." " No message." " All right, Mr Millaney." "Thank you." "Fool!" "Hope he knows what he's doin'." " Mr Millaney?" " Yeah?" " Mr DeForest is waiting." " All right." "Tell him I'll be in in a minute." "Jesus, the old man thinks that the world revolves around a game of golf." "I'll catch up to you at the courts." "I'd better go talk to DeForest." "Sure." "OK." "Fuck." "Oh, no, just one's fine, thanks." "This is my favourite part." "You know, I was thinking we should name our first child Rusty." "What do you think of that name?" "OK." "You know, I spend a lot of money in here." "I should at least know your name." " Hey." " Hey." "I brought you this." "I knew it was your birthday." " Thanks." " It's a nice plant." "Looks like a tablecloth." "Look, I can't stay." "I gotta go." " Can I call you?" " Do you have my work number?" "No." "Got a pen?" "OK, now, you're wearing blue, I'm wearing blue." "Is this some sort of weird coincidence?" "I don't think so." "I think it's something more." " Do you live here?" " No." "I'm just passing through." "Look, don't call between three and five, cos I get real busy, OK?" " OK." " OK." "See ya." " Bye." " Bye." "I like her." "She's a very nice girl." "Very nice." " Hi." " Hey." "I think it's gonna rain." "It is raining." "Yeah." "Visiontext Subtitles:" "Kerrie Slavin" "ENGLISH HOH"

"What's important right now is that you get somewhere safe." "I just bought this phone." "Yes, I know." "35 minutes ago at a liquor store at 71st and Binford." "You know where I am?" "Yes, and I convinced them to let me talk to you before..." "I can't believe you would do this." "Just..." "Lincoln, just hear me out, okay?" "The ATCU has released your picture to law enforcement." "It's everywhere, calling for your arrest." "We're gonna come get you." "[Click]" "Lincoln?" "[Grunts]" "♪" "You're not walking out of here till my partner has said her piece." "♪" "[Electricity crackles]" "[Panting]" "He must have blown his tracker." "Yeah, because he's creeped out that you put a tracker in him." "Yeah, and if she didn't give him a heads-up, we could have used it to bring him in." "He's already scared, paranoid." "Ambushing him out of nowhere would have made things way worse." "And he would have been able to express those feelings to us here, secure in our location." "All right, all right." "Everybody, just relax." "We'll figure this out." "Hunter:" "He should be in here." "We did a couple of jobs together a while back." "He's tight with Hydra in the U.K." "And continued his association when he relocated here to the U.S." "[Rock music playing]" "There he is." "You lead." "[Music continues]" "Spud." "[Chuckles]" "Why, here's Richy!" "As I live and breathe!" "[Laughs] Working the bum fluff." " Ah." " Oh, G..." "Gina, Spud." " Spud, Gina." " Hey." " [British accent]" " Whoo." "Classy for the likes of you, eh?" "[Chuckles]" "Business associates." "Mm. [Chuckles] Come here." "[Grunts]" " Oh!" " [Laughs]" " [Laughs]" " First round's on me." " Oh, nice one." " Hey!" "Uh, so, Richy tells us you're the guy to go to if we need to unload hold your horses." "That's not how it's done." "First we drink, then we talk business." "Hey!" "Three pints." "[Sighs]" "Right, 'cause you guys aren't hard enough to understand as it is." "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "_" "Yeah, you're right." "I did, didn't I?" "And, man, classic road trip." "[Chuckles] All right." "He's a muppet." "But if we don't start talking shop soon, he's gonna pass out, so..." "You have something to unload?" "Weapons... next gen, high potential damage." "We need buyers with deep pockets and bad intentions." "♪" "A finder's fee for you, of course." "♪" "I know people... but they have massive trust issues." "What do they want... a letter of recommendation?" "[Chuckles] Me vouching won't be enough." "Well, what is?" "Do I buy my way in?" "No." "You fight your way in." "If you are the last man standing, you'll get a meeting." "Sounds like a laugh." "Reporter:" "The suspect is considered dangerous." "And is wanted by both federal authorities and the ATCU." "This went from bad to really really bad." "They've gone public." "If you do see this man, do not engage." "♪" "Well, it looks like another wet one, folks." "Possible thunderstorms over the next few hours." "In other news, a suspect has been identified in the Cincinnati hospital alien terrorist attack that left three dead, many more injured." "If you have any information about the man pictured here, be sure to contact the authorities." "[Electricity crackling]" "[Indistinct shouting]" "[Indistinct conversations]" "Hey!" "You're him." "I don't know what you're talking about." "I saw you." "I know what you are." "♪" "You have no idea." "[Passengers gasping, electricity crackling]" "♪" "Woman:" "Oh, my god!" "Daisy, I need you to monitor all law enforcement near Lincoln's last known location." "How about we take a team, go look for ourselves?" "No, the ATCU's on a witch hunt for powered people." "I'm not afraid of them." "No, but they're terrified of you, which makes them dangerous." "Till we know where he is, you're not going out there." " Permission to speak freely." " Do I have a choice?" "I could have talked him in if you didn't put an unsolicited tracker under his skin." " If you didn't call to alert him, then we..." " Why wasn't I told?" "We thought you were a little close to the situation." "Of course I'm close to the situation." "You asked me to assemble a team, and I accepted." "I didn't expect to be undermined and..." "Do you know what I didn't expect?" "A global outbreak." "The ATCU, their inhuman manhunt..." "I didn't see all that coming, to be honest." "I wanted to assemble a team, to get ahead of the problem, but that didn't happen." "So, Daisy..." "I'll scan law-enforcement channels." "Thank you." "Mack, you were able to identify Rosalind Price's photo." " Mm-hmm." " How about getting me her digits?" "You got it." "Still acclimating to less gravity." "Well, now, this is a sight for sore eyes." "Thought it would be good to get back in the lab, see the old workspace." "Simmons:" "Is that it?" "It was the portal." "Now it's a pile of space rocks." "I've run a complete and exhaustive set of diagnostics, so I can assure you there's no need to worry." "[Cellphone vibrating loudly]" "You okay?" "[Cellphone beeps]" " Fine." " Just a sec." "It's Hunter." "He's on a ward hunt." "Say "hi."" "You know it." "Hey, look." "Just as you left it... made sure not even a post-it note was moved, 'cause I know how particular you can be about it." " [Instruments whirring loudly] - [Gasps]" "What is it?" "Um, I'm just..." "I'm not accustomed to this many distractions." "Yeah, well, I imagine you must have had quite a lot to take in... extraterrestrial materials and specimens to examine." "My curiosity faded once fear set in." "Right." "Yeah, no, of course." "Sorry." "Uh, I have to admit it's all a bit much." " Would you mind?" " Uh, yeah." "What... should I get Bobbi?" "No." "Um, it's just a little disorientation, attributable to oxidative stress." "Okay, yeah, I'll take you back to your room." "I hope you're not too disappointed." "No, on the contrary, you're self-diagnosing, which is a sign you're on the mend." "Hunter:" "And how is she now?" "As weirded out as you'd be after being stranded for months" " in another solar system." " Oh, I must say..." "H.Q. sounds a lot more fun than what we're up to." "Now, why don't I believe you?" "And why do you sound hung over?" "Because I am hung over." "There's nothing to do here but drink." "Planes, trains, and automobiles, chasing down leads... still no sign of Ward." "So, you're not doing anything stupid?" "Mm, not yet." "But one of those trains is about to leave the station, and I need to get on it." "Well, good luck." "Don't die." "Only thing I'll die of is boredom." "[Sighs]" "You lied to her." "Barely." "Besides, she knows I'm lying, so it's not even really a lie." "Works for us... for now." "You know how complicated these things can be... affairs of the heart, especially in our line of work." "[Inhales sharply] Me and Bob." "You and Andrew." " [Tablet beeping]" " So, do you trust Spud?" "[Inhales sharply]" ""Trust's" a strong word for a psychopath." "He's a murderous thief who I once saw bite a man's nose clean off." "But he'll get us through the door." "You'll find this funny." "Back at H.Q., we've got a little wager going on what happened between you and the good doctor." "My guess is you walked away not in a huff or anything, just couldn't stand the constant talking, sharing." "It's true." "I don't like a lot of talking." "This fight... it's our way to ward, so if you're gonna do this, you need to win." "Are you suggesting I can't win?" "I'm not saying you can't, but I know I can." "Spud runs with a type." "If that type see a small Asian woman destroy some wannabe Hydra thug in a bare-knuckle brawl, that type will talk, and word might spread up the ranks." "I see your point." "[Brass knuckles clatter]" "You're just anxious to bash some heads after being out of the game." "[Sighs]" "Look." "I've rarely lost a fight when I'm sober, which I plan on being." "And I can take a punch, so worst case," "I'll do that till the other guy tires out." "[Sighs]" "So... how much do you have riding on this bet that I left Andrew?" "A significant sum." "Well..." "You lost it." "♪" "[Brakes squeal]" "[Engine shuts off]" "Hey." "Hey." "Have you been drinking?" "I wanted to." "Instead, I called you." "You're the only one I trust." "Get in." "It's a hell of a long way for a ride." "I know." "I'll take care of the tolls on the way back." "Ah." "[Engine turns over]" "[Electricity crackling]" "♪" "John:" "You slept the whole drive." "I was pretty wiped out." "Yeah, I was kind of hoping for the hilarious tale of why." "You didn't call to have me talk you off a ledge..." "Not this time, anyway." "Linc, what's going on?" "[Sighs]" "Ah, I'm in a little bit of trouble." "You are killing me with these details." "You don't want to know." "Look... it's a misunderstanding." "I promise you, I haven't done anything wrong." "Okay, that is all I need to hear." "I know what kind of man you are." "Just tell me what you need." "I was hoping, uh..." "You'd let me buy your car off of you." "I know it's a lot to ask." "Uh, I..." "I'll pay cash." "Done." "[Chuckles]" "John, I don't know what to say." "All right, now, wait a minute." "You're... you're doing me a favor." "It's a pile of rust." "All right?" "I'll make us some dinner." "I don't know." "Take a nap, or the shower's over there, if you want to take a shower." " Mi casa, su casa." " [Sighs]" "It's gonna be okay." "♪" "[Sighs]" "♪" "[Sighs]" "[No audio]" "Rosalind:" "He didn't just disappear..." "Unless he did." "Well, he can't do that, can he?" "No." "Electric's his thing." "He'll show." "That's why we alerted the public." "He's got nowhere to hide." "I hope so." "We need to start making progress, showing results." "Ms. price, you have a call." "Well, it can wait." "It's the White House." "[Sighs]" "Uh, throw it up on my screen." "[Clears throat]" "[Monitor beeps]" "[Static]" "Coulson." "Call me "Phil."" "What I can't call you is POTUS." "You're not the only person with a connection to the White House." "Well, mine's a pirated satellite connection that will be discovered soon, so I'll be brief." "You're making a lot of noise, and frankly, I'm a little insulted." " [Cellphone vibrates]" " You're asking everyone for help... the FBI, local police, and now the public... everyone except the people who actually know something." " You mean you." " That is what I mean, yes." "So, I think we should meet, just the two of us... in person, neutral ground." "Uh, will you excuse me for a moment?" "[Monitor beeps]" "We have a location on Lincoln Campbell." "He's holed up in an apartment outside Chicago." "You know what you need to do." "[Monitor beeps]" "Okay, Phil, let's meet." "I think we'll have a lot to talk about." "[Knock on door]" "[Sighs]" "I cannot believe you're here." "Skye. [Chuckles]" "Daisy." "Sorry." "It's a multipurpose gift." "It's pretty and a reminder." "You can call me whatever you want." "I can't stay for too long." "I'm tracking law-enforcement channels, but I am really sorry that I haven't come sooner." "It's... there's just a lot going on." " And I've been sleeping." " Which is good." "Do whatever you need to get better." "We need you." "♪" "And I..." "I know you don't want to talk about what happened yet, but when you do, I'm here to..." "Right now I'd rather listen." "♪" "The Terrigen is spreading?" "So's the paranoia." "♪" "Not exactly the penthouse view." "You looking for something?" "No, I just... it's hard to relax, you know?" "I know." "♪" "Everything okay?" "Why wouldn't it be?" "Maybe I will hop in the shower." "♪" "John, what's up?" "What's wrong?" "You just stay where you are." "Don't touch me." "Wait." "What is going on?" "They'll be here any minute." "Who did you call?" "I called the hotline." "They said that you're dangerous." "Lincoln, they said that you killed people." "I never killed anyone..." "I swear." "You said you know what type of man I am." "I don't even know what you are." "They say you're an alien." "It's not at all what you think." "You just stay there." "Stay there!" "I'm not kidding!" "Stay there." "They're gonna be here any minute." "♪" "Here." "I'm gonna leave the money and take the car." "You don't need to be involved." "Just stay back!" "Get out of my way!" "♪" "[Electricity crackles]" "Sorry I brought you into this." "No." "♪" "[Groans]" "No, no, no, no." "No, John." "[Electricity crackles]" "Come on, John!" "[Electricity crackles]" "[Tires screech]" "♪" "Daisy:" "You're really okay?" "I think so." "I'm... ♪" "Well, it's just that... ♪ ... there's some of it that's hard to talk about, and, um..."

"Lincoln:" "Don't worry about that now." "What's wrong?" "I need help." "He's not here." "Daisy:" "Lincoln's hiding." "He's waiting for us." "We need to bring him in, preferably without the ATCU knowing." "Even though he just killed a guy." "I told you... it was an accident." "We'll figure it out once we get him in here." "It'd be safer if Mack handled the extraction." "I know, but then he won't come." "It's got to be me." "Your call." "And where are you going?" "To the beach." "Bobbi:" "I'd give anything to be in the field." "Rehab is the antithesis of exciting..." "I'm well-aware, but it's worth it." "You notice I was able to say "antithesis."" "You check on Simmons?" "Yeah." "She's kind of..." "Distant." "I'm not sure that I know how to help her." "What did you drill into my head when I started rehabbing my knee?" " Patience." " Exactly." "Yeah, I know." "I know." "It's just the lab... she loved that lab, designed it according to her specifications." "Now it's..." "Could be it reminds her of the way things were and all the time she lost." "Yeah." "I didn't think of that." "Maybe forget about the things that used to matter to her." "Give her something to look forward to." "Start fresh." "Yeah." "[Cellphone beeps]" "Yeah, maybe you're right." "Thanks." "♪" "[Brakes squeal]" "[Engine shuts off]" "♪" "Got to say, I was pretty surprised when I got your call." "Eyes up here." "[Chuckles] Busted." "Sorry." "I appreciate you taking the time." "Gave me an excuse to drive up the coast." "Does she have a name?" "I love my car, but it's just a car." "And it's a him." "You know, last time we met, you, uh, disarmed me with your evasive tactics." "I see what you did there." "No, I got to hand it to you." "Makes me wonder what else you got up your sleeve."

"We're not Hydra." "You say that now." "What's so important about him?" "Are you serious?" "He can bring down a plane." "Feels like a man worth talking to." "I have another theory."

"[Sighs]" "[Cellphone beeps]" "A pretty face with no name, no birth record, no social attached to it." "She's one of them." "And she works for you, right?" "What do I need to do to keep this quiet?"

"You gave me hope, a place in the world." "Look what happened to it." "You know better than anyone, if... if everything around you crumbles, then you're the cause." "Daisy:" "Stop!" "You don't see it, but I do." "You... you help people because you were meant to." "You can do that with us, like you were doing at the hospital... saving lives." "That part of my life is over." "No, you... you are not cursed." "You are not some horrible thing." "I know..." "Because you taught me that I wasn't." "You convinced me that I had a purpose, that maybe my life wasn't over, but just... getting somewhere." "♪" "Please let me do the same for you." "You're wasting your time caring about me."

"Yeah, but for more than that... for finding me." "What else was I gonna do?" "I don't know what to say." "You don't have to say anything." "Have you decided what you'll be having?" "Oh, gosh."

"To hand Lincoln over?" "I had to make a choice." "So it was him or me." "They have your picture, Daisy." "So why didn't they take me?" "Once Lincoln left, how did you convince them not to take me in?" "I offered them something just as valuable." " What?" " Me." "My expertise." "So... so now we're working with them?" "I'm done fighting with people over who gets to fight the real fight." "It's a colossal waste of time and resources." "I went against Talbot." "I went against another faction of S.H.I.E.L.D." "We know what we're doing... they don't." "Hopefully, they can learn from us." "It is hard to trust them when they are hunting people like me." "I never said I trust them." "Good."

"He's coming through." "He's gonna stop." "He's gonna stop." "I'm gonna get bit closer." "It's up to you now." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Ten seconds." "Stand by." "Okay, five seconds." "Three seconds." "Oh, no, he's covered." "He's covered!" "He's got cover on him." "He's got cover on him!" "Other way, other way." "Headed north." "Go." "Take the shot, now." "What you waiting for?" "He's in." "Here's your chance." "He's there." "Just shoot now." "Now, now, now!" "Through here." "Right." "Quick as you can." "Keep moving." "He's gone, he's gone." "We've lost him." "I'm gone." "I'm out of here." "It's all fucked." "Where is my lawyer?" "Terry, get the car." "It's fucked." "It's all fucked." "Terry, get the car." "Everything's arranged." "Don't worry, we'll have you out of here in no time." " Hey, hold it a sec." " Hey." " ID, please." " All right." "Please, sir." "Your ID." "Look at me, look at me." "Take your glasses off." "Do you hear me?" "I said, take them off." "All right." "Right, you check the pews, I'll take the bell tower." " Okay, sir, on your way." " Great." "Smile." "Damn it, Terry." "Sorry, mate, I just..." " Just drive." " Okay." "Brace yourselves." "Suspects are heading north in a black cab." "Hold on to your pants." "Secure the perimeter." "I repeat, secure the perimeter." "Christ!" "Superintendent, sir." "Morning." "Where's Inspector Ballard?" "She's down at the tube station, sir." "The next stop, Elephant and Castle." "Elephant and Castle, next stop." "Change, please." "Change." "Surveillance footage arrived yet?" "Cramston." " Inspector." " Can you bring the stills?" "Right away." "Let's not make a big deal of this, dad." "Of course not." "Just make sure you phone Mum about tea on Sunday, will you?" "...speak about it again." "I want it done yesterday, understand?" "Hello, Mr. Whitney." "Lovely weather for a change." "Oh, sir." "The driver of the cab was also at the courthouse." "Posing as journalist, we assume." "There was also a passenger in the cab." "We might be able to get a clear image from those, but I'm not sure." "Definitely two suspects then?" "Only one accounted for." "Kitty..." "Bingo?" "Bingo?" "Kitty, Kitty." "I'm looking for my cat." "She's white with two brown feet." "Who are you anyway?" "I'm a friend of Mr. Whitney." "I like Mr. Whitney." "How'd you hurt yourself?" "Let me see it." "It looks really serious." "You need to get it looked after." "No, I'm fine." "I'm fine." "You need me to help you." "Hey." "If I see your cat, I'll" "I'll keep it for you." "Don't bother." "I don't really have a cat." "Oh, shit." "Thank you." "Jeremy Collins." "Andrew Windsor." "How do you do?" "This assassin is obviously very dangerous, as you can see which is why there's an international manhunt." "Now, Mr. Collins, is to be given all cooperation during your investigation." "I really appreciate all your help, superintendent." "My entire department would." "Well, I'm here to, carry out any orders that Mr. Collins may have thus making them, as it were, English orders." "Oh." "Thank you very much." "Exactly what does that mean, sir, if you don't mind my asking?" "You tell me the word that you didn't understand and I'll try and couch it in simpler terms." "You see, I have 38 police personnel and four specialist units working on this enquiry." "Am I to notify each one of them about Mr. Collins?" "No." "I'd rather you didn't, if that's all right." "It's highly sensitive case we're working on here." "Which department did you say you work for?" " The Justice Department." " Justice Department?" "U.S. Justice Department." "My main concern is to identify the shooter." "My government has instructed me to take him into custody." "Thing is, Mr. Collins, if" "When we find him, we will question him before anybody else does." "It's under my jurisdiction." "Well, see now, this is where we're not really communicating." "When the shooter is found, with all due respect your department is under orders to call my department immediately." "Well, I thought I'd made that abundantly clear." "Well I'm sure we'll work something out." " Friendly cooperation." " Yeah." "Right, well, since we're now all very good friends are there any questions that you need answering?" "Sure, I see you released a photo of the driver to the media." "You have any shots of the second suspect?" "One." "We're working on it." "Within the next few days we'll have it cleaned up." "Okay." "I need to see all CCTV footage." "Right." "Immediately." "Right." "Okay." "I brought you a sandwich." "And cupcakes." "What-?" "What's your name?" "Emily." "Emily Day." "I heard you talking to someone out there." "Who was it?" "That's just Grams." "She's all right." "Just a bit wonky, if you know what I mean." "And your parents?" "Peace Corps hippies." "They're in South America now, I think." "Touring the country." "But they'll be home by Christmas." "I'll get you some bandages." "Scotland Yard have just received further information concerning the dead man in today's tragic crash in central London." "Police have positively identified the victim as Terry Mitchell." "Mitchell is believed to have been involved with today's assassination of alleged terrorist Ali Mahmoud Jahar." "Mitchell's accomplice is still at large." "The police are appealing for anyone who may have been in the area..." " Mr. Whitney." " ... to come forward." "Gramms." "Where you running off to?" " You all right?" " Yeah." "Mrs. Jenkins down the block called." "Asked if I could read Jane Eyre to her." "Jane Eyre, is it?" "I told my gramms I was gonna read Jane Eyre to this weird lady down the row." "What if she finds out you're not?" "She won't." "I lie all the time." "I got her incredibly confused once, poor old thing." "Anyway, the thing is about Mr. Whitney..." "He was really kind to me." "How's your cut, by the way?" "Look, I need some rest." "I'm glad you're here." "Whoever you are." "Wet work, Jimmy." "He's my gift." "Wet work, Jimmy." "He's my gift." "I'm glad you're here." "Gift." "I'm giving him to you." "I'm glad you're here." "You need me to help you." "You need me to help." "It's just a precaution." "Moscow Rules." "It's just a precaution." "No more of that terrible music so early in the morning, please." "You're wicked." "I'm off." "You better go, you'll be late." "Forensics came up with this, inspector." "They took apart the cab and they found under the floorboards is the corner of a takeout menu from a curry house." "Can we ID it?" "We traced the logo to a restaurant in South London." "Elephant and Castle." "It's worth looking into." "Take the photo of the suspect." "Right away." "What?" "Nothing." " What?" " Let me in." "No." "Go away." "I brought you some coffee." "If you want some coffee, I can go and get you some." "Why aren't you in school?" "If you must know, I'm skipping." "I can't be bothered." "I brought you something you'll want." "What is it?" " Guess." " I can't guess." "Just tell me." " Just guess." " I don't know." "Hell, I just" " Just tell me." "It's something you need." "Some desert boots a frying pan a Dust Devil, a" "I don't know." "a butt-naked lady with some six toes and a thing for chocolate." " What?" "I don't know." " Toothbrush." "It's been sent to every airport, border and port." "They've all been alerted." "Keep it away from the media for now." "Understood." "What about the American?" "Collins." "Don't tell that bastard anything yet." "Sir?" "Agent 52-57 calling from the field." "James." "Terry's dead." "Yeah, he fucked up, didn't he?" "You're all over the news, buddy." "Where are you?" "James?" "I'll bring you in." "James?" "Dance is over." "No, no, no." "Wait, wait, wait." "Give me 40 minutes, James, and I'll" "He's getting out?" "Your attention, please." "Passengers are reminded that for security reasons baggage must not be left unattended at any time." "Have a safe flight, Mr. Murphy." "Ballard." "No, no, no, don't do anything." "Next one, please." "Excuse me, sir." "Step to one side." "Thank you." "Under the jacket here, sir." "Right, I need you to do that again, sir." "Take your belt off." "And your shoes, please." "Thank you." "Right, sir, thank you very much." " Excuse me." " Yes." "Could you page John Murphy, please?" "Sure." "This is a call for John Murphy." "John Murphy please pick up the white courtesy telephone?" "Thank you." "This is a call for John Murphy." "Can John Murphy please pick up the white courtesy telephone?" "Thank you." "I've been informed we have to let the Americans run point." "Bollocks." "I'll check with airport security." "Very good." "Where's the suspect?" "I've been told we shouldn't interfere." "Don't piss about." "Where is he?" " Baggage area, sir." " Thank you." "Wait." "Hold up." "Freeze." "King?" "You okay?" "Yeah." "You go run." "Dial." "Come on, Dial." "Hiding again?" "That's far enough." "Don't you move a muscle." "Chief Superintendent Andrew Windsor, Metropolitan Police."

"Under the covert black ops unit..." "Firezone." "My case officer is Jeremy Collins." "You say Collins?" "What's going on in there?" "Why are those cameras off?" "Turning on lights now." "Zooming in." "Inspector, better come and look at this." "What do you wanna do?" "Inspector?" "Annette." "We checked out that lead in Elephant and Castle." "The owner of the restaurant ID'd the suspect's photograph as someone who lived in the area." "Went by the name of Mr. Whitney." "No one tells the American." "Great." "Where have you been?" "A costume party." "Don't lie to a liar." "Well, you've messed up the place." "Looking for something, are you?" "Yep." "But it's not here." "Mister." "You have to take a look at this." "Easy, for fuck's sake." "Come on." "Quickly." "Where does this go?" "The flat is secure." "He was there, but not anymore." "Gone." "Well, continue searching every flat in this building." "Okay." "Quiet." "Police, madam." "We need to search your" " Where are you" " Go, go." "Stand down." " Get her out." " Okay, sweetheart." "Go wait with the lady in the living room." "Get out." "Clear, sergeant." "Clear." "All clear." "Ballard?" "I want a picture of the bastard on every television in the country by morning." "Oh, I thought they caught you." "They're gone." "Come on, I gotta hide you." "Just got off the phone from Washington, sir." "You've been called to testify before the Congressional Intelligence Committee." "The hearings have started." "When?" "Three days." "We need to get him before they do." "Then that's how long we've got." "Mister?" "You've gotta see this." "This morning, Scotland Yard released this photograph of the man suspected to be involved with the Ali Jahar assassination and the murder of Chief Superintendent Andrew Windsor." "The public are reminded that the suspect is armed and extremely dangerous." "If recognized, he should not be approached under any circumstances." "I didn't shoot the cop." "I believe you." "You can't lie to a liar so I'd know if you were." "Yeah, I bet you would." "What are you gonna do?" "I'm gonna try to find a way out." " That's nice." "I like it." " Thank you, ma'am." "Can I order more?" "Yeah, of course." " Like 200?" " Sure." "And they'll be ready till Monday?" "Yes, ma'am, just for you." "Thank you, Mr. Beloit." "All right, come on." "Sir, may I help you?" "Yes." "The way you helped my friends." "And friends like him." "I'm sorry?" "Terry Winchell." "I need a passport." "The Passport Office issues passports."

"Thank you, Cindy." "Just in from the newsroom:" "No arrests made yet in connection with the shooting of Chief Inspector Andrew Windsor but Scotland Yard are offering a 20,000-pound reward for information leading to the arrest of this man." "Is this gonna be too hard for you?" " I'll be all right." " I figured as much." "Ballard." "Who the hell's Beloit?" "My dad wore that coat to work every Monday." ""Make a good impression," he used to say." "He wore it, huh?" "You mean when he wasn't traveling the world?" "Yeah." "Well, before he left." "I saw the obituary, Emily." "You know, back home in the mountains I have this horse." "Stubborn thing." "Won't be broken." "I think you'd like it." "What's his name?" "I call him "Beauty."" "Original." "You should see him." "I tell you, this horse has a spirit like no other I've ever seen." "Well, maybe I'll come and see him someday." "Maybe." "You okay?" "Yeah." "It's time." "Okay." "Mister, listen to me." "I'm gonna go ahead of you and check the shop." " What?" " To make sure it's not a setup you know, like you see on the detective shows." " No." " Why not?" " No." " I'm just a girl walking into a shop." " No." " Why not?" "Stop!" "When I come out if I walk away from you, everything's fine." "But if I walk towards you it means there's cops in there." "Emily, Emily, Emily." "If I walk towards you just run." "He's a wild boy." "Wild boy." "He's a rude boy." "Mr. Beloit, this whole thing is gonna be fine." "Trust me." "I'm getting married, not you." " Right?" " Are you a hundred percent sure?" "I'm absolutely sure." "Just have to change the date." "Can I help you, young lady?" "I need something photocopied." "This is a printers." "We don't have copy machines, I'm sorry." "Right." "Well, thanks, then." "A 1 in position." "Fifth floor." "Target in sight." "I repeat, target in sight." "One hundred yards downrange." "Target's approaching, wearing a brown hoodie." "Target's approaching." "Thirty seconds." "Do we have permission to fire?" "A 1 in position." "Target heading towards the printer's." "King, ID." "Repeat, do we have permission to fire?" "Clear shot available." " Twenty seconds." " What the hell is this?" "This operation has not been authorized." "Clear shot." "I have reliable information" " Sir, our task" " Get the fuck out of my face!" "Ten seconds." " Stand your men down, Ballard!" " Absolutely not!" "The target's moving away." "The target's moving away." "Go, go, go." "Target now moving north towards the market." "Dial!" "He's taking a left, left, left into Kendall Road." "Target moving down Kendall Road near the car park." "Target taking a right, right, right into Christchurch Street." "Do not fire." "I repeat, do not fire." "Stay in position, A2." "Do not shoot." "Repeat, do not shoot." "I've lost sight of the target." "I've lost complete sight of the target." "Get off me!" "Yeah." "He got away." "I'll get back to you as soon as I can." "Mr. Collins." "I know why I want this shooter." "But what I can't figure out is why do you?" "National security of the United States of America." "Have we got that footage back from the lab?" " Not yet, but" " Tell me someone's bloody trying." "Of course they are." " Just keep me informed, all right?" " Certainly, Inspector." "There you are." " I was worried to death." " Sorry, Gramms." "I need you to sit down with me, Emmie." " I don't feel much like it." " Now, if you please." "I know we've had our differences, you and I." "It's not you, Gramms." "No, I mean really." "I" "Your being here, I know how unnatural it is." "And any mothering instinct I once had has obviously faded." "You do all right." "Honestly." "Honesty's not something you're very familiar with." "I miss them too, Emmie." "We will try and make the best of it, you and I, won't we, Em?" "That's good." " I thought you were dead." " Yeah." " They were waiting there." " Yes." "The whole world is looking for you." "Things are becoming more complicated." "Oh, you can say that again." "I'm gonna have to turn myself in." "But you'll go to prison then." "Maybe." " What will happen to Beauty?" " Beauty?" "Beauty will be just fine." "I wanna go to your ranch." "You'll teach me how to ride." "I'd only come for a visit, and I wouldn't be a bother." " I promise." " Just, just, just stop." "I'm going to sleep now." "I'm going to sleep now." "I'm going to sleep now." "How long have you had that computer?" "It was a present." "From your neighbor, Mr. Whitney." " How did you know that?" " Lucky guess." "I'm going to sleep now." "It's really not going very well." "Two more days until the hearing, sir." "Yeah, you know what?" "Fuck them." "Fuck all of them." "People like us, Purcell we're just the soldiers on the covert battlefield." "I know you know that." "Fight fire with fire, sir." "We should be heroes." "Me, you, James." "It's embarrassing." "We have to hide and cower like criminals when the whole world is falling apart at the seams." "But we've got every phone in Scotland Yard tapped." "And he's gonna be calling in real soon." "How do you know?" "That's what I'd do." "What's all this about then?" "Leverage." "Inspector, that was a really lovely service for your father." " Thank you." " You holding up?" "At the end of the day, Cramston, I" "I don't know." " You don't have to." " Excuse me." " Yes?" " Inspector Ballard?" " We've an urgent call for you." " Put them through." "Sorry to disturb you." "Ballard speaking." "You're looking for me." "I'm sorry?" "You've been looking for me." "Of course." "Things aren't the way they appear to be." "In what way?" "I'm a" "I'm an operative for the Agency." "My case officer is the one who ordered the hit on Jahar." "His name is Jeremy Collins." "I didn't shoot your father." "Really?" "I have more proof." "Meet me." " Where?" " Corner of Harrington Street." " There's a new mall." " I know it." "In one hour." "And, Ballard no cops." "If there are any cops there, I disappear." "For good." "Yeah, I understand." "Ready, sir." "Emmie?" "Hi, Gramms." "Mr. Brown was sick, so I got the rest of the day off school." "What's all this then?" "Made you coffee." "Oh, and I've got a load of laundry in the wash." "Are you possessed, child?" "I know you have your book club today so I heated you up a sausage roll for the tube." "Have you done something terrible like burn down the school or something?" "Of course not." "Now, come on, we're gonna be late." "Emily." "So we take this road to the new shopping mall." "And then the train station's just a block away." "You have to take the 4:00 to Dover." "And then the ships go in and out all the time." "You know, you're a little too good at this." "Take this road to the new mall here." "And then the train station's only a block away." "You need to avoid the high streets, there's too many people there." "Do you know where this is?" "Over there." "Listen to me very carefully." "If you don't hear from me in an hour take your laptop to the police station." "You ask for Inspector Ballard." " Inspector Ballard." "You got that?" " Yeah." "And then you play for her the MP3s that I copied." "Okay." "All right." "Hey." "I still don't know your name." "James." "You said you had proof." "Take it easy." " What's that?" " Years of hits ordered by the Agency." "Ordered by Collins." "I need you to come with me, Mr. Dial." "Stop running." "You have everything you need." "I don't think so." "Stop right there." " Which way?" " This way." "Wait." "I want my gun." "Dial!" " Are you okay?" " I'm fine." "It just grazed me." "Go right." "Go right!" "Dial?" "Over here!" "Purcell?" "Purcell!" "Purcell!" "Come on." "Is this what you do?" "Let's go." "Purcell?" "Purcell, we're here." "Keep going." "Try to find a way out." "I'll stay here." " No." " Go." "Go!" " Over here." " Purcell." "Purcell." "God." "He's dead." "Purcell's dead." "Cramston, I hope you're bloody well ready for this, mate." "Just look at that." "Fuck me." "I need you to print out an image of this man." "Just spotted them." "Headed into the Brisbane Hotel." "Move!" "Go." "Go." "Go." " Get out of here!" " Go." "Go." "Seems like we're trapped, James." "Just like Croatia." "Remember that?" "Escape seemed impossible." "If the mission fails, you're already dead." " Moscow Rules." " Not this time." "Hey." "Hey." "Well, you know this thing here it" " It was never personal, man." "Yeah." "I know." "You need to see this." "It was Collins who" "I know." "I know." "Get this looked at." "After all we went through, you've gone and hurt yourself again." "Yeah, I got a nasty habit of running into bullets." " I'm coming with you." " No." "I've packed everything." "Emily, you can't." "You can't go where I'm going." "You belong here." "This is where you're from." "Please." "I promise I'll..." "I'll see you again." "Look, Emily, I gotta go." " Do you know where he's going?" " No, I don't." "Do-?" "Do you know him?" "He saved my life." "He's my friend." "Hey." "No, I" " No, I wanna come." "On Saturday, yeah?" "Well, I'll tell Sarah." "I- I think I can come." " Emmie." " I gotta go." "Got a letter today." " From who?" " I haven't the slightest idea." "America, I think." "Dear Emily I was thinking of setting Beauty free." "Thought you might wanna help." "I've sent two tickets one for you and one for your grandma." "Hope to see you." "We'll be waiting."

"Corny, who do you think you're talking to?" "If the attorneys don't know who the heir is, who does?" "Come on." "I've done you a lot of favours." "Who's getting the Semple dough?" "You're asking the wrong guy." "I'm only a press agent." " Newspaperman?" " Wants to know the heir." " Hang up." " Sorry, Mac, I can't..." " Yeah, but I ain't the attorney." " Hang up!" "Mr Cedar is, and I haven't seen him in two days." " Cedar, we gotta deal with the papers." " I'm not interested." "But it's a great story." "Somewhere a guy is walking into 20 million bucks." "My concern is to locate the lucky man." "When I do, keep the newspapers away." "OK, as long as that weekly stipend keeps coming in." "We located him, Mr Cedar." " Yes, John, we got him." " Here." "Longfellow Deeds, 28, Mandrake Falls, Vermont." " Thank heaven." " Wire him." "No." "I'm going there myself." "You too, Anderson." "You too, Cobb." "Make three train reservations to Mandrake Falls." " Where?" " Mandrake Falls." ""Welcome to Mandrake Falls..." ""where the scenery enthralls..." ""where no hardship e'er befalls." ""Welcome to Mandrake Falls." That's pretty." " You're sure he lives here?" " This is the town, all right." "Well, I hope it's not a wild-goose chase." "No, sir, we checked it thoroughly." "He lives here, all right." "I spy a native." "Let's ask him." " Good morning." " Morning, neighbours, morning." "That's an excellent start." "At least we've broken the ice." "Do you know a fellow called Longfellow Deeds?" "Deeds?" "Yes, sir." "Yes, indeedy." " Everyone knows Deeds." " Must be a game he's playing." "We'd like to get in touch with him." " Who's that?" " Deeds." "Who do you think?" "Oh, yes, Deeds." "Fine fellow." "Very democratic." "You won't have no trouble at all." "Talks to anybody." "We'd better try somebody else." "Next time he comes out, I'll straddle him while you ask him your questions." "Morning, neighbours." "Remember us, the fellows who were here a minute ago?" "Oh, yes, indeedy." "I never forget a face." "Listen, pop." "We've come all the way from New York to look up Deeds." "It's important." "It's very important." "Don't get rough, neighbour." "Just ask." "Then please pretend, for just one fleeting moment, that I'm asking." " Where does he reside?" " Who?" "Longfellow Deeds." "Where does he live?" "Oh, that's what you want." "Why didn't you say so in the first place?" "Those fellows don't know what they're talking about." "I'll take you there." "If they'd only explained to me, there'd be no trouble." "Oh." "Will you come in, please, gentlemen?" " Is Mr Deeds in?" " No." "He's at the park arranging a bazaar to raise money for the fire engine." "Mal, you knew he was in the park." "Yeah, but they wanted to see the house." "Can't read their minds if they don't say what they want." "Come in, please." " A cup of tea?" " No, thank you." "Sit down." "Sure I couldn't get you a glass of lemonade or something?" "That's very kind of you." " Are you related to him?" " No, I'm his housekeeper." "We'd like to find out what he does for a living." "He and Jim Mason own the tallow works, but that's not how he makes his money." " He makes most of it from his poetry." " He writes poetry?" "Oh, my goodness, yes." "Longfellow's famous." "He writes all those things on postcards." "You know, for Christmas and Easter and birthdays." "Sit down, please." "Here's one." "He got $25 for this one." ""When you've nowhere to turn and you're filled with doubt," ""don't stand in midstream hesitating," ""for you know that your mother's heart cries out," ""'I'm waiting, my boy, I'm waiting.'" "Isn't that beautiful?" "Isn't it a lovely sentiment?" "Yeah." "Here he is now." "Break it to him gently." "He's liable to keel over from shock." "They've been waiting a long while." " Who are they?" " I don't know." " Mr Longfellow Deeds?" " Yes." "How do you do?" "I'm John Cedar, of the New York firm of Cedar, Cedar, Cedar Budington." "Cedar, Cedar, Cedar Budington." "Budington must feel like an awful stranger." " Mr Cornelius Cobb." "Mr Anderson." " How do you do?" "You gentlemen make yourselves comfortable." "Thank you." "Thanks." "New mouthpiece." "Been waitin' two weeks for this." "Kids keep swiping them all the time." "They use 'em for bean shooters." " What can I do for you?" " Will you stay to lunch?" " I'd like to ask you a few questions." " All right." " Are you Joseph and Mary Deeds' son?" " Yes." " Your parents living?" " Why, no." "Well, Mr Deeds, does the name of Martin W. Semple mean anything to you?" "Not much." "He's my uncle, I think." "I never saw him." "My mother's name was Semple." "Well, he passed on." "He was killed in a motor accident in Italy." "He was?" "Gee, that's too bad." " If there's anything I can do..." " I have good news for you, sir." "Mr Semple left a large fortune when he died." "He left it all to you." "Deducting the taxes, it amounts to something in the neighbourhood of $20 million." "How about lunch?" "Are the gentlemen staying?" "Of course." "She's got some fresh orange layer cake with that thick stuff on the top." "Sure." "They don't want to go to the hotel." "Perhaps you didn't hear what I said, Mr Deeds." "The whole Semple fortune goes to you." "$20 million." "Oh, yes, I heard you, all right." "Twenty million is quite a lot." " It'll do in a pinch." " Yes, indeed." "I wonder why he left me all that money." "I don't need it." "Mr Cobb is an ex-newspaperman." "Associated with your uncle for many years, as a buffer." "Buffer?" "Yeah." "A glorified doormat." "Rich people need someone to keep away the crowds." "Then there's the newspapers." "One must know when to seek publicity and when to avoid it." "Cedar, Cedar, Cedar Budington." "I can't think of a rhyme for "Budington"." "Why should you?" "Whenever I run across a funny name, I like to find a rhyme." "Don't you?" "No." " I've got one for Cobb." " Yeah?" "There once was a man named Cobb who kept Semple away from the mob." "Came the turn of the tide, Semple died." "Now poor Cobb's out of a job." " Sounds like two weeks' notice to me." " Huh?" "I've gotten the sackeroo in many ways, but never in rhyme." " I don't mean that." "I'll need your help." " That's different, if it's just poetry." " Are you married?" " Who, me?" "No." "No, he's too fussy for that." "That's the matter with him." "There's lots of nice girls right here in Mandrake Falls..." "Don't pay any attention to her." "He's got a lot of foolish notions about saving a lady in distress." "Now, you keep out of this." "Saving a lady in distress, eh?" "We all have dreams like that when we're young." "Incidentally, we'd better get started." "You'll have to pack." " What for?" " You're going to New York with us." " When?" " Four o'clock." "I don't think we've got any suitcases." "Well, we could borrow a couple from Mrs Simpson." "She went to Niagara Falls last year." "I'm nervous." "I've never been away from Mandrake Falls in my life." " Like to see Grant's tomb." " I understand." "We'll meet you at the train at 4.00." "Congratulations, Mr Deeds." "You're one of the richest men in the country." "See you later." " See you later, kid." " Good day, sir." "Did you hear what he said?" "Know how much 20 million is?" "I don't care." "You sit there and eat your lunch." "You haven't touched a thing." "For he's a jolly good fellow For he's a jolly good fellow" "For he's a jolly good fellow" "Which nobody can deny" "I can't find him." "I looked everywhere." "His house is locked up." " A change of heart." " He wasn't anxious to come." "Here comes the train." " Look." " What?" "That tuba player." "Well... now I've seen everything." "Goodbye, Mrs Meredith!" "Goodbye, Jim!" "Bye, Buddy!" "Gosh, I got a lot of friends." " Have a drink?" " No, thanks." " Cigar?" " No, thank you." "I wouldn't worry if I were you." "A large portion like this entails great responsibility, but you'll have help." "So don't worry." "Leave everything to me." " I wasn't worried about that." " No?" "I was wondering where they're gonna get another tuba player for the band." " Hello, John." "Where you been?" " I've been fishing." "Good morning, Mr Cedar." "Good morning." "Where are they?" " Waiting for you." " Good morning, Mr Cedar." " Good morning." " Morning." " Hello, boys." " Well, what's he like?" "We've nothing to worry about." "He's as naive as a child." "Close that door." " Get Mrs Cedar on the phone." " What happened?" "The smartest thing I did was to make that trip." " Did you get?" " No, but I will get the power of attorney." "I asked him what he was going to do with the money." "Know what he said?" "Give it away." " He must be a nitwit." " You had the right hunch." " John, we can't afford..." " I know, Budington." "We can't afford to have the books investigated." "You've said that a thousand times." " What if they fall into someone's hands?" " It hasn't happened yet." " Half a million dollars, my goodness..." " Will you stop worrying!" "I got Semple to turn it all over to us." "And who got power of attorney from him?" "All right, then I'll get it again." "Take it easy." "Those books will never leave this office." "Yokel." "Nothing but a yokel." "Your uncle was mad leaving all that money to him." "You're as closely related to him as he is, and what did you get?" " I say, what did you get?" " Stop yelling." " He didn't like me." " I told you to be nice to him." "Ten years we've waited for him to kick off." "Then we were gonna be on Easy Street." "Yeah, on Easy Street." " It's too late now." "You're a nuisance." " That's just what I'm gonna be." "Until I get some of that money." "He's news!" "Every time he blows his nose, it's news." "A corn-fed bohunk falling into the Semple fortune is hot copy." "It's gotta be personal with an angle." "What does he think about?" "How does it feel to be a millionaire?" "What does he think of New York?" "Is he smart, dumb?" "He's been here three days." "What have you brought in?" " A halfwit could've done better." " We tried..." "Am I talking too loud or annoying anybody?" "You know Corny Cobb." "He's keeping him under lock and key." "Never mind." "Use what little brains you've got." "Find out something for yourselves, you imbecilic stupes." "Now get out of here before I really tell you what I think of you." " What was that?" " I said you had dirty plaster." "You too." "Thought I could depend on you, but you're as bad as the rest." " Look." "I can do it." " What's gotten into you, Babe?" "You'd blast this town open before letting Cobb get away with this." "He's not getting away with anything." "Get some stuff on him and you can have..." " A month's vacation?" " With pay." "With pay?" "Leave four columns open on the front page tomorrow." "I'll keep the whole front page open." " What are you gonna do?" " Have lunch." "The first time I ever had a suit made on purpose." "It's merely a suggestion, Mr Deeds, but if you give me power of attorney, we'll take care of everything." "Everyone will try to sell you something." "There have been a lot of them already." "Strange people." "Salesmen, politicians, all want something." "Haven't had a minute to see Grant's tomb." "Your uncle didn't bother with that sort of thing." "He travelled, enjoyed himself." "You should do the same thing." "Besides wanting to be my lawyer, you want to handle my investments?" " Yes." "That is to say..." " How much extra would it cost?" " No extra charge." " That's a lot of extra work." "But that's a service Cedar, Cedar, Cedar Budington usually donates." "Budington." "I can't think of a rhyme for Budington yet." "The gentlemen from the opera are still waiting in the boardroom." "They're getting a trifle impatient." "I forgot." "What do they want?" "Your uncle was chairman." "They expect you to carry on." "I'll tell them to keep their shirts on and that you'll be down." "Oh, did you send that telegram to Jim Mason yet?" "Jim Mason?" "Oh, yeah, yeah." "No, I didn't send it." "I've got it written out, though." "Here it is." ""Arthur's been with the tallow works too long." ""Don't think we should fire him." "Longfellow."" "Send it." "I don't want him to fire Arthur." "Sure, we don't want to fire Arthur." "Arthur was the last baby my father delivered." "You ought to give this matter some thought." "I mean about the power of attorney." "Oh, yes, I will." "I'll give it a lot of thought." "A fellow named Winslow here wanted to handle my business for nothing too." "Puzzles me why they want to work for nothing." "It isn't natural." "I'd better think about it some more." "That's that." "You go to an awful lot of work to keep a fella warm." " Yes, sir." " A Mr Hallor to see you, sir." " Hallor?" "Don't let him in." " Why not?" "Who's he?" "A lawyer representing a woman." "A claim against the estate." "If he has a claim, we'd better see him." "Send him in." "He'll cause you a lot of trouble." "How can he make trouble for me?" "I haven't done anything." " I told you to take this up with me." " I'm tired of being pushed around." "I don't care how important you are." " I represent Mrs Semple." " Mrs Semple?" "Your uncle's common-law wife has a claim." " Let the courts decide..." " You wouldn't dare take this to court." "I'll leave it to you." "Would any court not be in sympathy with a woman who gave up her best years for your uncle?" " What kind of wife did you say?" " Common-law wife." " On top of that, there's a child." " Child?" "My uncle?" "Yes, sir." "That's awful." "She should be taken care of." "Glad to see you're willing to be reasonable." "As his wife, she should have the money." "I don't want it..." "Don't make any rash promises." "That opera mob is about to break into the mad song from Lucia." "I don't wanna keep them waiting." " Very good, sir." " I can't go down like this." "Go along with me, Cobb." "They're strangers to me." " What about it, Mr Deeds?" " Huh?" "Oh." "You'll excuse me, won't you?" "I'll be right back." "Do the opera people always come here for meetings?" " Uh-huh." " Why's that?" "Why do mice go where there's cheese?" "I'm led to believe the young man's quite childish." "We'll have no difficulty getting the entire amount." " After all, it's only $180,000." " Excellent idea." "We're very fortunate the young man is so sympathetic toward music." "He plays the tuba in the town band." " Here he comes." " Good." "The first order of business will be electing a new chairman of the board." "As a gesture toward the best friend that opera ever had, the late Mr Semple, it's fitting his nephew, Longfellow Deeds, be made our next chairman." " I therefore nominate him." " Seconded." " All those in favour?" " Aye!" "Carried." "Our congratulations, Mr Deeds." " I'm chairman?" " Yes." "You've just been elected." " I'm chairman!" " Happy voyage." "Right here, Mr Deeds." " Next, the secretary's minutes." " Move we dispense with it." " Seconded." " All in favour?" " Aye!" " I think they can be dispensed with." " Now, the treasurer's report." " Dispense with it." " Seconded." " All in favour?" "Quite right." "Now, gentlemen, the next order of business..." "Just a minute." "What does the chairman do?" "Well, the chairman presides the meeting." "That's what I thought." "But, if you don't mind, I'm rather interested in the treasurer's report." "The treasurer reports a deficit of $180,000 for the current year." "A deficit?" "We lost that much?" "You see, Mr Deeds, the opera is not conducted for profit." " It isn't?" "What is it conducted for?" " It's an artistic institution." " We own an opera house, don't we?" " We do." " And we give shows?" " We provide opera." " But you charge?" "You sell tickets?" " Of course." " And it doesn't pay?" " Impossible." "The opera has never paid." "Well, we must give the wrong kind of shows." "There isn't any wrong or right kind." "Opera is opera." "I guess, but I wouldn't care to be head of a business that kept losing money." "That's not common sense." "Incidentally, where is the $180,000 coming from?" "Well, we were rather expecting it to come from you." " Me?" " Naturally." "Excuse me, gentlemen." "There's nothing natural about that." "Fire engine!" "Gee, that was a pip!" "We're gonna have one like that in Mandrake Falls soon, with a siren too." "Where were we?" "The opera is not conducted like any ordinary business." " Why not?" " Because it just isn't a business." "Maybe not to you, but it certainly is to me, if I have to make up a loss of $180,000." "If it's losing that much, something's wrong." "Maybe you charge too much, sell bad merchandise." "A lot of things." "You see, I expect to do a lot of good with that money, and I can't afford to put it into anything I don't look into." "That's my decision for the time being, gentlemen." "Goodbye, and thank you for making me chairman." "Gentlemen, you'll find the smelling salts in the medicine chest." "Sorry to keep you waiting." "Those opera people are funny." "They wanted me to put up $180,000." " What about it?" " I turned them down, naturally." " No, I mean about my client." " Oh." "We'll have to do something about her." " Tails tonight, sir?" " Tails?" "Why, that's a monkey suit." "You want people to laugh at me?" "I've never worn one." "Goodbye, and thank you, sir." "Goodbye." "Wants me to wear a monkey suit." " We don't want to appear greedy." " Huh?" " I say, we don't want to appear greedy." " Oh, that." " What are you doing?" " Assisting you, sir." "I don't want anybody holding the ends of my pants." "Get up from there." "Imagine that." "Holding the ends of my pants." "Mrs Semple is entitled to one third of the estate." " Don't ever get on your knees again." " No, sir." "What'd you say?" "Mrs Semple is entitled to one third of the estate." "One third?" "That's about $7 million." "Well, we didn't expect that much." "I can get her to settle for one million." "Take up any settlement talk with my office." "I'll do no such thing." "There's only one place you're going, and that's out the door." " You're making a mistake." " Oh, no, I'm not." "I don't like your face." "Besides, there's something fishy about settling for a million when you can get seven million." "I'm surprised Mr Cedar, who's supposed to be smart, couldn't see through that." "Now, wait a minute, buddy!" "One nice thing about being rich, you ring a bell and things happen." "When the servant comes in, I'll ask him to show you to the door." "No use in getting tough." "That'll get you nowhere." "We've got letters." " Show Mr Hallor to the front door." " Yes, sir." "There isn't any wife, there aren't any letters, and you're a crook, so you'd better watch your step." "I can't hold out any longer." " Lamb bites wolf." "Beautiful." " It's only common sense." "I can't hold out any longer either." "Being your attorney will be very simple." "You're not my attorney yet, not till I find out what's on your mind." "Get the books straightened out so I can have a look at 'em." "Yes, of course, if you wish." "But you must be prepared." "This will be daily routine." "If it becomes annoying, you let me know." "Goodbye, Mr Deeds." "Goodbye, sir." "Even his hands are oily." "Tonight, what would you like in the way of entertainment?" "Entertainment?" "Your uncle had a weakness for dark ones." "Tall and stately." "How would you like yours?" "Dark or fair?" "Tall or short?" "Fat or thin?" "Tough or tender?" " What are you talking about?" " Women." "Ever heard of 'em?" "Oh!" " Name your poison, and I'll supply it." " Some other time, Cobb." "OK." "You're the boss." "When your blood begins to boil, yell out." "I'll be seeing you." " He talks about women like cattle." " Every man to his taste, sir." "Are all these stories I hear about my uncle true?" "Well, sir, he sometimes had as many as 20 in the house at the same time." " Twenty?" "What'd he do with 'em?" " That is something I never found out." " Hey!" "You going out?" " Yes." "Isn't that all right?" "No." "You never go out without telling us." " Who are you?" " We're your bodyguards." " Oh, yeah?" " Yeah." "Mr Cobb said stick to your tail." "That's very nice, but I don't want anybody sticking to my tail." "Sorry, mister." "Orders is orders." "We get you up in the morning, put you to bed at night." "No matter what we see, we don't see nothin'" " That's gonna be fun." " Some people like it." " Will you do something for me first?" " Sure." "Put that away, slug." "At your service." " Would you get my trunk out for me?" " Certainly." "With pleasure." "We're your bodyguards!" "You can't do this!" "There he is." " That's him." " That's who?" " Get your cameras, follow me." " What you gonna do?" "Never mind." "Grab whatever you can get." "It's gonna be the same old thing." " That dame's nuts." " Right." "You fainted." "Oh, did I?" "I'm sorry." " Can I help you?" " No, thank you." "I'll be all right." "This is my house." "I'd like to..." "Oh, no, really, I'll be all right." " What happened?" " Well, I guess I walked too much." "I've been looking for a job all day." "I found one too." "I start tomorrow." "You've been awfully kind." "Thank you very much." "Hey!" "Taxi!" "Hey, Stu, follow that cab they just got into, will ya?" " Hurry up!" "Step on it!" " Come on, let's go!" "Feel better now?" "This tastes so good." "I don't know how I can ever thank you." "Tell me more about yourself." "Well, I guess I've told you almost everything there is to tell." "My folks live in a small town near Hartford." "I'm down here alone trying to make a living." "I'm really just a nobody." "Oh, that was so lovely." "Thank you." "You were a lady in distress, weren't you?" " What?" " Nothing." "Waiter." " Has anybody come in yet?" " Uh, no." "Nobody important." "Be sure and point them out to me." "I'm a writer myself, you know." "I write poetry." "Well... you've been having quite an exciting time, haven't you?" "With all these meetings, business deals, society people." " Haven't you been having fun?" " No." "That is, I didn't until I met you." "I like talking to you, though." "Imagine my finding you right on my doorstep." " Brookfield's just come in." " Who?" "The poet?" "Where?" "Over at that big round table." "The one that looks like a poodle." " Look, there's Brookfield, the poet." " Really?" "Pardon." "Longfellow Deeds, who inherited the Semple fortune, wants to meet you." "Oh, yes." "I read about him." "He writes poetry on postcards." "Invite him over." "Might get a couple of laughs." " Getting rather dull around here." " It's always dull here." " I'll get him." " Good." "Mr Henneberry." "Mr Morrow." "Bill." "This is Mr Deeds and his fiancée from Mandrake Falls." "How do you do, Mr Deeds?" "Nice of you to ask us to come and sit with you." "Back home we never get to meet famous people." " Waiter, a little service here." " Yes, a drink for Mr Deeds." " I don't want it, thank you." " All poets drink." "How do you go about writing your poems?" "We are very interested in one another's methods." "Do you have to wait for an inspiration, or do you just dash it off?" " Well, I..." " Morrow just dashes them off." "Yeah." "That's what my publishers have been complaining about." " Well, your readers don't complain." " Oh." "Thanks." "How about you, Mr Deeds?" "Well, I write mine on order." "The people I work for tell me what they want, and then I write it." "Amazing!" "Why, that's true genius." "Have you any peculiar characteristics when you're creating?" " Well, I..." "I play the tuba." " How original." "I've been playing the harmonica for 40 years." "Didn't do me a bit of good." "You wouldn't have one in your pocket?" "What, a tuba?" "No, a postcard with one of your poems on it." " Oh, no." " You don't carry a pocketful with you?" "Oh, too bad." "I was hoping you'd autograph one for me." " I was too." " Now, wait a minute, boys." "Perhaps Mr Deeds would recite one for us." "That's a very good idea." "Nothing like a poet reciting his own stuff." "How about a Mother's Day poem?" "Exactly." "Give us one that rings the great American heart." "Yes." "Go ahead." "I get the idea." "I know why I was invited here." "To make fun of me." " Oh, not at all." " Don't be ridiculous." " Look, he's temperamental." " What if I am?" "What about it?" "It's easy to make fun of somebody if you don't care how much you hurt 'em." "Your poems are swell, Mr Brookfield, but I'm disappointed in you." "I must look funny to you, but if you went to Mandrake Falls you'd look as funny, only nobody'd laugh at you, because that wouldn't be good manners." "Maybe postcard poems are comical, but people think they're good." "Anyway, it's the best I can do." "So if you'll excuse me, we'll be leaving." "I guess I found out that all famous people aren't big people." "And if it weren't for Miss Dawson, I'd bump your heads together." "Oh, I don't mind." "Then I guess maybe I will." "Waiter!" "Eureka!" "Stop it." "Go away, go away." "Step aside." "Say, fella, you neglected me and I feel very put out." "Look, sock it right there, will ya?" "Sock it hard." " I've got it off my chest." " Oh, listen." "The difference between them and me is I know when I've been a skunk." "You take me to the nearest news-stand and I'll eat a pack of your postcards raw." "Oh, what a magnificent deflation of smugness!" "Pal, you've added ten years to my life." "A poet with a straight left and a right hook?" "Delicious." "Delicious." "You're my guest from now on, for ever and a day, even unto eternity." " Thanks, but we're going sightseeing." " Fine." "Fine." "Swell." "You've just shown me a sight lovely to behold, and I'd like to reciprocate." "Listen, you hop aboard my magic carpet..." "Thanks..." "I'll show you sights that you've never seen before." "Grant's tomb and the Statue of Liberty?" "You'll not only see those, but before the evening's through, you'll be leaning against the Tower of Pisa, mount Mount Everest." "I'll show you the pyramids and all the sphinxes." "Pal, how would you like to go on a real old-fashioned binge?" " Binge?" " Yeah, I mean the real McCoy." "Play saloon with me, and I'll introduce you to every wit, nitwit and halfwit in New York." "We'll go on a twister that'll make Omar the soused philosopher of Persia look like an anaemic on a goat's milk diet." " That oughta be fun, huh?" " Fun?" "Say..." "Listen, I'll take you on a bender that will live in your memory as a thing of beauty and a joy for ever." "Boy?" "Boy, my headpiece!" "O Tempora!" "O Mores!" "O Bacchus!" " Oh, you're drunk." " Oh, you're right!" " If we go with him, we'll see things." " I guess we will." ""'I play the tuba to help me think.'" ""A statement made by Longfellow Deeds, New York's new Cinderella Man," ""who last night proved that his late uncle from whom he inherited $20 million," ""was an amateur in the art of standing the town on its cauliflower ear."" ""Cinderella Man." That's sensational, Babe, sensational." "Took some high-powered acting." " Did it?" " I was the world's sweetest ingenue." "Is he really that big a sap?" "He's the original." "There are no carbon copies of that one." ""Cinderella Man." That'll stick to him for the rest of his life." "Can you imagine Cobb's face when he reads this?" "If we sold tickets, we'd make a fortune." " How'd you get the picture?" " Had the boys follow us." "Marvellous. " At two this morning, Mr Deeds tied up traffic" ""while he fed a bagful of doughnuts to a horse." ""When asked why, he replied," ""'To see how many doughnuts the horse would eat before he asked for coffee.'" "Beautiful!" "What happened after that?" "I had to write the story." "He was so drunk he never missed me." "When are you gonna see him again?" "Tonight, maybe." "I'll phone him at noon." "My lunch hour..." " I'm a stenographer." "Mary Dawson." " You're a genius, Babe, a genius." "I moved into Mabel Dawson's apartment, in case Cobb might start looking around." "Good." "Don't show your face here." "I'll say you're on vacation." "No one'll know where the stories are coming from." "You can get an exclusive out of him every day." "We'll have the other papers crazy." " Babe, I could kiss ya!" " Oh, no." "No." " Our deal was for a month's vacation." " Sure." " With pay." " You'll get it, Babe." "Mr Deeds." "Mr Deeds, sir." "You really must get up." "It's late." " You're Walter, aren't you?" " Yes, sir." "Just wanted to make sure." "If you'll permit me to say so, sir, you were out on quite a bender last night." "Bender?" "You're wrong, Walter." "We started out to a binge, but we never got to it." "Yes, sir." " What's that?" " A prairie oyster, sir." "Prairie oyster?" "Yes, sir." "It makes the head feel smaller." "Oh." " Has Miss Dawson called yet?" " No Miss Dawson has called, sir." "She was the lady in distress." "She wouldn't let me help her." " Had a lot of pride." "I like that." " Oh, I do too, sir." "I'd better call her up and apologise." "I don't remember taking her home." "I'd venture, you don't remember much of what happened last night, sir." "What do you mean?" "I remember everything." "Hand me my pants." "I wrote her phone number on a piece of paper." "You have no pants, sir." "You came home last night without them." " I did what?" " You came home without any clothes." "You were in your shorts." "Yes, sir." "I couldn't walk around on the streets without any clothes." "I'd be arrested." " That's what the two policemen said." " What two policemen?" "They brought you home." "They said you kept walking up and down the street shouting," ""Back to nature!" "Clothes are a blight on civilisation!" "Back to nature!"" "Listen, Walter, if a man named Morrow calls up, tell him I'm not in." "He may be a great author, but..." "I think he's crazy." "The man's crazy, Walter!" "Yes, sir." "Oh, by the way, did you?" " The knee." " But how will I put on the slipper, sir?" "Yes, sir." "I beg pardon, sir, but did you ever find what you were looking for, sir?" "Looking for?" "You kept searching my pockets last night, sir." "You said you were looking for a rhyme for "Budington"." " Better bring me some coffee." " Very good, sir." "I beg pardon." "A telegram came for you, sir." "I'll get you some black coffee, sir." "Did you see all this stuff in the paper?" " Arthur wants to quit." " Arthur?" "Who's Arthur?" "He's the shipping clerk at the tallow works." "Wants a $2 raise, or he'll quit." "What do I care?" "Did you see this stuff in the paper?" "How did it get in there?" "What did you do last night?" "What did you do to those bodyguards?" "Said you locked them up." " They insisted on following me." " What do you think bodyguards are for?" " What do they mean, "Cinderella Man"?" " Are those stories true?" ""Cinderella Man"?" "They'd call you anything if you gave 'em a chance." "They got you down as a sap." " I'll punch this editor in the nose." " No, you don't!"

" Yes, I guess I'll have to." " Thank you." "If you feel the building rock, it'll be me, blasting into this editor." "Cobb's right." "I mustn't talk to anybody." " Miss Dawson on the phone, sir." " Who?" "Miss Dawson?" " Yes, sir." " Fine." "Give me the phone, quick." "She's the only one I'm gonna talk to." " Awfully nice of you to show me around." " I enjoy it." "The aquarium was swell." "If I lived in New York, I'd go every day." "I bet you do." "I'd like to, but I have a job to think of." " You'd better keep following that bus!" " Keep your shirt on!" " No pictures tonight." " I oughta get him drunk again." "Got any news?" "I mean, has anything exciting been happening lately?" "Sure." "I met you." "What's happening about the opera?" "Oh, that." "We had another meeting." "I told 'em I'd be chairman if..." " I'm chairman, you know." " Yeah, I know." "I told 'em I'd play along if they lowered prices, cut down expenses and broadcast." "Oh." "What'd they say?" "Gee, you look pretty tonight." " What'd they say?" " Huh?" "Oh." "They said I was crazy, that I wanted to run it like a grocery store." " What are they going to do?" " Do you always wear your hair like that?" "Isn't it a scream?" ""Cinderella Man." The dope." "I'd like to get my hooks into that guy." "Someone's probably taking him for plenty." "If they were men, I'd knock their heads together." " Have you seen the papers?" " Uh-huh." "That's what I like about you." "You think about a man's feelings." "I'd like to punch the fella in the nose that's writing that stuff." ""Cinderella Man."" "Pretty soon everybody'll be calling me Cinderella Man." "Would you like to walk the rest of the way?" "It's so nice out." " Yes." " Yeah, let's." "Hey, wise guys, he's getting off." "Come on, pull up to the kerb!" "Oh, come on." "Don't you want to see it?" "Well, feast your eyes." "Grant's tomb." "Is that it?" "Hey, beetle puss." "The tomb." "Well, there you are." "Grant's tomb." "I hope you're not disappointed." " It's wonderful." " To most people it's an awful let-down." "Huh?" "I say, to most people it's a washout." "That depends on what they see." " And what do you see?" " Me?" "Oh, I see a small Ohio farm boy becoming a great soldier." "I see thousands of marching men." "I see General Lee, with a broken heart, surrendering." "I can see the beginning of a new nation, like Abraham Lincoln said." "And I can see that Ohio boy being inaugurated as president." "Things like that can only happen in a country like America." "Excuse me." "Sorry, Mr Hopper." "Mr Cedar won't answer his phone." "What's going on?" "The three C's and B have been in there over an hour." "I don't want to be critical, but..." "I know." "We haven't got power of attorney." " But you said..." " I can't strangle him, can I?" "It's ridiculous for us to worry about him." "Look at these articles." ""Cinderella Man."" " He's carrying on like a idiot." " Exactly what I said..." "Who cares?" " Yeah?" " Mr and Mrs Semple are waiting." " Let 'em wait." " They've been in every day this week." " Who?" " Relatives of old man Semple." "They keep insisting they should have some nuisance value." " Nuisance value?" " If not for Deeds, they'd be rich." "Nuisance value..." "Maybe they have." "Maybe they have, maybe they have..." "Mr and Mrs Semple, please." "How do you do?" "I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting." "What was my secretary thinking, keeping you waiting this long?" " Will you have a cigar, Mr Semple?" " Thanks." " There's Times Square." " You can almost spit on it." "Why don't you try?" "It's breezy up here." "You're worried about those articles they're writing about you?" "Oh, I'm not worrying any more." "They'll go on writing 'em until they get tired." "You don't believe all that stuff, do you?" " They just do it to sell the newspapers." " Yeah, I guess so." "What puzzles me is why people seem to get so much pleasure out of hurting each other." "Why don't they try liking each other once in a while?" "Shall we go?" "Here's a nice place." "Yeah." "Anyway, there aren't any photographers around." "You said something to me when you first met me I've thought about a great deal." " What's that?" " You said I was a lady in distress." "Oh, that." " What did you mean by that?" " Nothing." "Have you got a?" "Are you engaged or anything?" " No." "Are you?" " No." " You don't go out with girls very much." " I haven't." " Why not?" " Oh, I don't know." "You must've met a lot of society girls." "Don't you like them?" "I haven't met anybody here that I like particularly." "They all seem to have St Vitus' Dance." "Except you, of course." "People here are funny." "They work so hard at living, they forget how to live." "Last night, after I left you," "I was walking along, looking at the tall buildings, and I got to thinkin' about what Thoreau said." ""They created a lot of grand palaces here," ""but they forgot to create the noblemen to put in them."" "I'd rather have Mandrake Falls." " I'm from a small town too, you know." " Really?" " Probably as small as Mandrake Falls." " What do you know about that!" "It's a beautiful little town, too." "Grove poplar trees right along main street." "Always smells as if it just had a bath." " I've often thought about going back." " You have?" "Oh, yes." "I used to have a lot of fun there." "I loved going fishing with my father." "You know, that's funny." "He was a lot like you, my father was." "He talked like you, too." "Sometimes he let me hold the line while he smoked." "We'd just sit there for hours." "After a while, for no reason, I'd go over, kiss him, sit in his lap." "He never said very much, but once I remember him saying," ""No matter what happens, honey, don't complain."" "He sounds like a person well worth knowing." " He played in the town band, too." " He did?" " I play the tuba." " Yeah, I know." " What did he play?" " Drums." "He taught me to play some." " He did?" " Mm-hmm." "I can do Swanee River." " Would you like to hear me?" " Sure." "Let's see, now." " Oh, I suppose you could do better." " Sure." "I can sing Humoresque." "I bet you don't even know how it goes." "Sure." "You sing it over again, and I'll do Humoresque with it." " You better be good." " Do they want to make it a quartet?" " Ready?" " Yeah." "Fire engines." "Fire engine!" "I wanna see how they do it." "Wait for me." "Looks like the evening won't be wasted." "Hello." "What do you want?" "Captain Deeds, fire volunteer, Mandrake Falls." "Hi, Cap." "Boys, meet the captain." " What's the matter, hon?" " Nothing." "What's up, Babe?" "Something's eatin' you." "No, it's nothing." "My unfailing instinct tells me something's wrong." "Don't be ridiculous." "You haven't gotten very far." "That's where you were an hour ago." "Let's go down to Joe's." "The gang's waitin'" "I can't write it." "I don't know what's the matter with me." "Uh-uh." "Hello?" "Yeah, she's here." "Who wants her?" "Who?" "Oh, yes." "Yes, just a moment." "It's him." "Whatchamacallit." "The Cinderella Man." "The Cinderella Man." "Hello." "Couldn't sleep." "Wanted to talk to you." "Do you mind?" "No, not at all." "I couldn't sleep either." "I wanted to thank you again for going out with me." "Huh?" "I don't know what I'd do without you." "You've made up for all the fakes I've met." "Well, that's very nice." "Thank you." "You know what I've been doin' since I got home?" "I've been workin' on a poem." "It's about you." "Sometimes it's kind of hard for me to say things, so I write 'em." "I'd like to read it sometime." "Maybe I'll have it finished next time I see you." "Will I see you soon?" "Gosh, that's swell, Mary." "Goodnight." "Goodnight." "Mabel, that guy's either the dumbest imbecile in the world or the grandest thing alive." "I can't make him out." " I'm crucifying him." " People have been crucified before." " Why do we have to do it?" " You started out to be a success." " Then what?" " Search me." "Ask the Gypsies." "Here's a guy that's wholesome and fresh." "To us he looks like a freak." "Do you know what he told me tonight?" "When he gets married he wants to carry his bride over the threshold." "The guy's barmy." "Is he?" "Yeah, I thought so too." "I tried to laugh, but it stuck in my throat." "Cut it out, will ya?" "You'll get me thinking about Charlie again." "He's got goodness, Mabel." "Do you know what that is?" "Of course you don't." "We've forgotten." "We're too busy being smart alecs." "Too busy in a crazy competition for nothing." "I beg pardon, sir." " Madame Pomponi is on the telephone." " Who?" "She says everything is all set for the reception." "Don't come in when I'm playing." " She's on the telephone." " Get out." "The evil finger's on you." " The finger, sir?" " Get out!" "Stop!" " Did you hear that?" " What, sir?" "Why, that's an echo, sir." " You try it." " Me, sir?" "Louder." " You try it." " Me, sir?" "Louder." "You try it." "All together." "Again." "Let that be a lesson to you." "Go back to your rooms, both of you." "Hello, darling." " So good of you to come." " Madame Pomponi." " I'm so happy to have you here." " I'm dying to see the Cinderella Man." " Shh." "He may hear you." " Even if he did, he wouldn't understand." " Bad as that, eh?" " I hear he believes in Santa Claus." "Will he be Santa Claus?" "That's what I wonder." " Slippers ready for the Cinderella Man?" " Think he'll go for that?" "With $20 million, he doesn't have to have looks." "He won't have it long with that Pomponi woman hanging around." "My dears, I hear that he can't think unless he plays his tuba." " You're a fool, Babe." " I just couldn't stand seeing him again." "Running away is no solution." "What'll I say if he calls up?" "Tell him I had to leave suddenly." "Got a job in China, someplace." " You're acting like a schoolgirl." " What else can I do?" "Keeping this up's no good." "He'll find out sometime." "At least I can save him that." " Where is everybody?" " Come on, Babe." "The artillery's ready." "It's those two sore spots again." " Should've been down to the office." " Mac threw Cobb out." " Boy, was he burning." " No, you don't." "One drink, and then we're ready to shoo." " We're not going out." " You have a date with him." "It's off." "He's having a party at his house." " What's the matter with her?" " You wouldn't know." " Run along." "Peddle your little tin-types." " What?" "Throwing us out of here is getting to be a regular habit." "Is Mary Dawson here?" "I'm Longfellow Deeds." "Yes." "Of course." "Longfellow Deeds." "Come in." "Step in, please." "You're Mabel, her sister, aren't you?" "Yes." "Yes." "Of course." "Her sister." "Yes, I've been her sister a long time." " Is she home?" " Yeah." "What?" " Is Mary home?" " Oh, Mary." "Yes, of course." "I don't know whether she's home or not." "I'll see." "There she is." " Hello." " Hello, Mary." "I waited in the park over an hour." "I thought maybe you'd forgotten." "I didn't think you'd come, with the party." "I wouldn't let them stop me from seeing you, so I threw them out." " You threw them out?" " You mean, by the neck?" "Sure." "They got on my nerves, so I threw them out." "That'll be in the papers tomorrow, give them something else to laugh at." "I don't mind, though." "I had a lot of fun doing it." " Like to go for a walk?" " Yeah, if it isn't too late." "I'll get my hat." "Nice day out..." "Nice night, wasn't it..." "Isn't it?" "Yes." "Lovely." "We've had a lot of nice weather lately." "Yeah." "It'd be a nice night to go for a walk, don't you think?" "Yeah, I think it'd be a swell night to go for a walk." "A nice long one." " Ready?" " Gosh." " She looks better every time I see her." " Thank you." "Goodnight." "I won't keep her out late." "Thank you so much." "Goodnight." " My foot's asleep." " No, you don't." " Listen, she told us..." " No more photographs." "Glad you wanted to take a walk, Mary, 'cause I wanted to talk to you." "Let's just walk, hmm?" "All right." "Mary, I'm going home." "Are you?" "When?" " A day or so, I think." " I don't blame you." "A man ought to know where he fits in." "I don't fit in here." "I had an idea I could do something with the money, but they kept me so busy I haven't figured it out." "I guess I'll wait till I get back home." "Do you mind if I talk to you, Mary?" "You don't have to pay any attention." "No, I don't mind." "All my life I've wanted somebody to talk to." "Back in Mandrake Falls, I used to always talk to a girl." " A girl?" " Only an imaginary one." "I used to hike a lot, and I'd always take this girl with me, so I could talk to her." "I'd show her my pet trees and things." "It sounds kind of silly, but we had a lot of fun doing it." "She was beautiful." "I haven't married, 'cause I've been kind of waiting." "You know, my mother and father were a great couple." "I thought I might have the same kind of luck." "I've always hoped that someday that imaginary girl would turn out to be real." " Well, here we are again." " Yes, here we are again." " Goodnight." " Goodnight." "Mary, I..." " Excuse me." " Goodbye, darling." "Don't let anybody hurt you again, ever." "They can't anyway." "You're much too real." "You go back to Mandrake Falls." "It's where you belong." "Goodbye." "Mary." "You know the poem I told you about?" "It's finished." " Would you like to read it?" "It's to you." " Yes." "Of course." "You don't have to say anything, Mary." "You can tell me tomorrow what you think." ""I tramped the Earth with hopeless feet," ""searching in vain for a glimpse of you." ""Then heaven thrust you at my very feet," ""a lovely angel, too lovely to woo." ""My dream has been answered, but my life's just as bleak." ""I'm handcuffed and speechless in your presence divine." ""For my heart longs to cry out." "If it only could speak." ""I love you, my angel." "Be mine." "Be mine."" "Oh, darling." "You don't have to say anything now." "I'll wait till tomorrow to hear from you." "Hey!" "What's the big idea?" "Stop it, Babe." "Stop it." "You're quitting?" "You might as well tell me I'm quitting." "What's bothering you?" "Last night he proposed to me." "Proposed to you?" "He asked you to marry him?" " Yes." " Why, Babe!" "That's terrific!" ""Cinderella Man woos mystery girl." "Who is the?"" " Print that and I'll blow your place up." " Sorry, Babe." "I just got carried away." "That's too bad." "That would've made a swell story." "So, he proposed to you?" "What a twist." "You set out to nail him, and..." "Yeah." "Funny twist, isn't it?" "You haven't gone and fallen for that mug, have you?" "Well, I'll be." "That's tough, Babe." " What are you going to do?" " I'm going to tell him the truth." "Tell him you're Babe Bennett?" "Tell him you've been making a stooge out of him?" "I'm having lunch with him today." "He expects an answer." " It's going to be pretty." " You're crazy." "You can't do that." "He'll probably kick me right down the stairs." "I hope he does." "I'll put you on another job." "You need never see him again." "That's the rub." "Oh, it's as bad as that?" "Telling him's the long shot." "I'm going to take it." "Well, it was fun while it lasted, Mac." "I'll clean out my desk." " How's it going?" " Quite all right, sir." " Gold?" " Yes, sir." " Fourteen karat." " Yes, sir." " Is that the best you got?" " Yes, sir." "Flowers are too high." "I won't be able to see her." " Get a smaller bowl." " A smaller bowl." " Yes, sir." "A smaller bowl." " Did you get that stuff?" " Stuff, sir?" " That goo that tastes like soap." "Yes, sir." "Here it is." "The pâté de foie gras, sir." "Fine." "Have a lot of it, 'cause she likes it." "Now you got the idea." "That's fine." "Sit over there, will you?" " Me, sir?" " Yeah." " You're too tall." "Slink lower, will you?" " Yes." "More." "Now forward." "How is this, sir?" " Perfect..." "Perfect." " I wish you luck, sir." "Thank you." "Now, don't touch a thing." "Leave everything as it is." "Yes, sir." "Walter?" "Walter?" " Walter, where are you?" " What is it, sir?" "Anything happened?" ""Anything happened"?" "I got to get dressed." " But she isn't due for an hour, sir." " What's an hour?" "Time flies." " My tie?" " Yes, very good, sir." "Yes, sir." "Just as I suspected, wise guy." "I don't mind you making a sap out of yourself, but not out of me." "Will you tell the gentleman I'm not in?" "Mary Dawson, hmm?" "Mary Dawson, my eye." "She took you for a sleigh ride New York will laugh about for years." "She's the slickest two-timing, double-crossing..." " What are you talking about?" " Go ahead." "Sock away." "And then try to laugh this off." "She's the star reporter on the Mail." "Every time you opened your kisser, you gave her another story." "She slapped that moniker on you:" "Cinderella Man." " She's a double dose of cyanide." " Shut up!" "Babe, I can't let you quit now." "Are you going through with this?" "This is for you." "All the head waiters in town." "You can buy scandal from them at reasonable prices." "I've seen them get in a rut like you before, but they come back." "Hello?" "Yes?" "Just a minute." "It's for you." "Soon you'll get the itch so bad, you'll work for nothing." "Babe Bennett?" "Just a minute." " Hello, Mary?" " Hello, darling." "Have you been writing those articles about me?" "Why, I was just leaving." "I'll be up there in a minute." "Look..." "Yes, I did, but I was just coming up to explain." "Listen, darling." "Wait a minute." "Please." "Listen." "I beg pardon, sir." "Should I serve the wine with the squab, sir?" "I beg pardon, sir?" "If I knew you were going to take it so hard, I would've kept my mouth shut." "Sorry." "Pack my things, Walter." "I'm going home." "Yes, sir." "You shouldn't be running away like this." "What'll happen to the estate?" "They can have the estate." "Nobody's going to kick me out." "Let me go!" "I want to see that guy!" "Let me go!" "I want to see him!" "Let me go!" "There he is." "I wanna look at him." "I wanted to see what kind of a man you were." "A man that spends thousands on a party, while people around him were hungry." "The Cinderella Man?" "Did you think how many families could be fed on what you pay to get on the front pages?" "Let him alone." "If you know what's good for you, let me get this off my chest." "How did you feel feeding doughnuts to a horse?" "Got a kick out of it?" "Got a big laugh?" "Ever think of feeding doughnuts to human beings?" "No!" " Shall I call the police, sir?" " No!" "What do you want?" "That's all that's worrying you:" "What do I want?" "A chance to feed a wife and kids." "I'm a farmer." "A job." " That's what I want." " A farmer?" "You're a moocher." "I wouldn't believe you on a stack of Bibles." "You're a moocher like all the rest, so get out." "Sure, everybody's a moocher to you." "A mongrel dog eating out of a garbage pail is a moocher to you." " This won't do you any good." " Stay where you are!" "Get over there!" "You're about to get some more publicity, Mr Deeds." "You're about to get on the front page again." "See how you're going to like it this time." "What good's your money when you're six feet under?" "Never thought of that." "All you ever thought of was pinching pennies, you money-grabber." "You never gave a thought to those starving people in the bread lines not knowing when their next meal was, not able to feed their wife and kids." "Not able to..." "I'm glad I didn't hurt nobody." "Excuse me." "Crazy." "You get all kinds of crazy ideas." "Sorry." "I didn't know what I was doing." "Losing your farm after 20 years' work." "Seeing your kids go hungry." "Game little wife saying everything's going to be all right." "Standing there in the bread lines." "It killed me to take a hand-out." "I ain't used to it." "Go ahead and do what you want with me, mister." "I guess I'm at the end of my rope." "Could I take some of this home with me?" " Are you married?" " Yes, sir." " Any children?" " No children." "I think you'll qualify." "Take this to that desk for further instructions." " Thank you very much." " Next, please." " How many does that make?" " You've okayed 819." " Is that all?" "It's going awfully slow." " We need 1100 more." "Hello?" "Yes." "Yeah." "The water development seems OK." "I don't like the road layout." "Come up tonight about ten and bring the maps." "Right." "Here's the order for the ploughs." "We got a good price." "Fine." "Thanks." "I'll look them over later." "Mr Deeds, my wife wanted me to tell you she prays for you every night." "I..." "Well, thanks." " How do you do?" "Your name?" " George Rankin, sir." "No, no, we're not buying any bulls." "What's that?" "Listen, fellow." "Bull's what I've been selling all my life." "He's ordered me to turn everything over to him." "Work fast, before he disposes of everything." "I told you something could be done." "I knew it all the time." "Sign it." " We may get into trouble." " Don't be squeamish." "There's millions involved." "You're his only living relative." " What's it say?" " It's your agreement if we win." "My end is going to be expensive." "I have important people to take care of." "I have the legal machinery ready to go." "I've been working on it." "Say the word, and we'll stop him in his tracks." " Sign it!" " All right." " Charlie, we're off." "Papers all set?" " All set." "Go to it." "And Charlie?" "Find who wrote those articles and subpoena him." " So what is your name?" " Christian Swenson." " Farmer?" " Yes, ma'am." " Where is your farm?" " South Dakota, north." " South Dakota North?" " South Dakota, but on the top." " What about knocking off for lunch?" " Not hungry." "I want to get through this work and go home." "What are you trying to do, keel over?" "You haven't been out of this house in two weeks." "Maybe I'll have a sandwich." "Do you mind waiting?" "Sure." "If you like to have a sandwich, I can give you one, please." "Thanks." "Thank you." "Never mind, Cobb." "Good." "Cobb!" " Get lunches for the rest of them." " What?" "There must be 2,000 of them out there." " That doesn't make them less hungry." " OK, Santa Claus. 2,000 lunches." " Say something." " Go ahead." "Tell him." "Mr Deeds, the boys here wanted me to say a little something." "They just wanted me to say that..." "Well, they wanted me to say that we think you're swell." "And that's no baloney." " Say something more." " Give me a chance, fellows." "We're all down and out." "A fellow like you comes along, it gives us hope." "They just wanted me to say that I've..." "That's him." " Are you Longfellow Deeds?" " Yes." "Sheriff's office." "We got a warrant to take you into custody." " A what?" " A warrant for your arrest." " What's up?" "What do you wonks want?" " I have an insanity warrant to execute." " Insanity?" "Who says he's insane?" " A relative of the late Martin Semple." "The charges are that Mr Deeds is insane and incapable of handling the estate." "Somebody got panic-stricken?" "Where are you going to take him?" " County Hospital." " It's only temporary." "A hearing will follow immediately." "That's fine." "Just because I wanna give this money to people who need it, they think I'm crazy." "That's marvellous." "That makes everything complete." " Let's go." " Wait." "We're going to get a lawyer." " I'll call Cedar." " Don't bother." "I'm from Mr Cedar's office." "He represents the complainant." " Let's go." "We're wasting time." " All right." "But get your hands off me." "Come on." "Get back." "Step back." "Get back!" "Everybody in town has been here to see him." "Yes, sir." "I will." "Goodbye." "Sorry, lady." "It's you again." " Please." "I've got to see him." " Listen, he don't want to see nobody." " Will you just give him my name?" " Listen." "There isn't a thing the matter with that guy, till I mention your name." "What are you going to do?" "Sit back and let them railroad you?" "It's as pretty a frame-up as ever hit this rotten town." "If you'd just let me get you a lawyer." "You can't walk into that court without being ready to protect yourself." "Cedar's too smart." "With the talent he's lined up against you, you'll cook." "Listen, I know just how you feel." "A blonde in Syracuse put me through the same paces." "I came out with a sour puss, but full of fight." "Come on." "You don't want to lay down now." "They're trying to prove you're nuts." "They'll shove you in the bug house." "The moment they accused you of it, they had you half licked." "You gotta fight." "Go on." "Sit down, won't you?" "Yes." "So long, Mr Cobb." "Corny, listen, I've got to see him." "I've got to talk to him." "Haven't you done enough damage already?" "Somebody's got to help him." "He hasn't a chance against Cedar." "I've got Mac lined up and the paper's behind him." "I can get Livingston." "With a lawyer like that, he's a chance." "You're wasting your time." "He doesn't want lawyers." "He's so low, he doesn't want help." "You can take a bow for that." "As swell a guy as ever hit this town and you crucified him for some headlines." "You've done your bit." "Now stay out of his way." "There he is now." "Here he is." "Cedar wants to make a settlement." "Here's your chance to get out of the whole mess." "What do you say?" "Rise, please." "Supreme Court, State of New York, now in session." "The Honourable Judge May presiding." "Be seated." "The court wishes to warn those present it will tolerate no disturbances." "Regarding the sanity hearing of Longfellow Deeds..." "You represented by counsel, Mr Deeds?" "I understand you have no counsel, and you have no intention of defending any of these charges." "Now, if you wish to change your mind, the hearing can be postponed." "Crazy." "Proceed." "In the interest of my client, relative of the late Martin W Semple, we cannot permit the fortune to be dissipated by a person whose incompetency and abnormality we shall prove beyond doubt." "I have a series of articles written by a newspaperwoman, who witnessed his conduct since he came to New York." "She tells how, in mid-conversation, he'd suddenly begin playing his tuba." "She tells of his attack on several eminent writers for no reason." "I, myself, unable to keep pace with his mental quirks and fearful of assault, turned down an opportunity to represent him as his attorney." "This newspaperwoman, who we've subpoenaed to testify, tells how he held up traffic for an hour feeding doughnuts to a poor horse." "We have photographs to substantiate this episode, and others of him jumping about a fire engine." "This scarcely sounds like the action of a man in whom the disposition of $20 million may safely be entrusted." "The writer of these articles, whose integrity in the newspaper world is unquestioned, held him in such contempt that she quite aptly named him the Cinderella Man." "We have witnesses from Mandrake Falls, who will tell of his conduct throughout his lifetime, proving that his derangement is neither a recent nor a temporary one." "We have others who will tell of his unusual behaviour, when he invited great leaders in music to his home and then proceeded to forcibly eject them." " I hope he can explain that." " Yes." "Only recently, when he was in the County Hospital for observation, he not only refused to be examined by these state psychiatrists, but he actually made a violent attack upon them." "In these times, with the country incapacitated by economic ailments and in danger with an undercurrent of social unrest, the promulgation of such a weird, fantastic and impractical plan, as contemplated by the defendant, is capable of fomenting a disturbance from which we may not recover." "It is our duty to stop it." "Our government is aware of its difficulties." "It can pull itself out of its economic rut without the assistance of Mr Deeds." "His attempted action must therefore be attributed to a diseased mind, afflicted with hallucinations of grandeur and obsessed with an insane desire to become a public benefactor." "Your Honour, we would like to call our first witness, Louise "Babe" Bennett." "Miss Bennett, please." "Raise your right hand, please." "Do you swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth?" " I do." " State your right name." " Louise Bennett." " Take the stand." "Miss Bennett, are you employed by the Morning Mail?" " I ask you direct your attention to me." " This is ridiculous." " Answer the question." " The hearing's ridiculous." " That man's no more insane than you." " Outrageous!" "It's obviously a frame-up." "They're trying to railroad this man for money." "Another outburst and I shall hold you in contempt." "We are not interested in your opinion." "You are to here to testify." "Sit down and answer questions." "Proceed." "Thank you." "Are you employed by the Mail?" "No." "You're under oath." "Are you employed by the Mail?" "No, I resigned last week." "Prior to that time, were you employed by the Mail?" " Yes." " You followed the activities of Deeds?" " Yes." " Did you subsequently write about him?" " Yes." " Are these the articles?" " Yes." " Were you present?" " Yes." " Are they true?" "They did take place?" " They just make him look silly." " You saw them?" " That's all." " It isn't all." "I'd like to explain..." " I submit these articles as evidence." " Let go!" "What kind of hearing is this?" "Are you trying to persecute the man?" "Somebody's got to defend him!" " Please." " I've a right to be heard." "I've attended dozens of cases like this." "They're conducted without any formality." "Anybody can be heard." "My opinion's as good as these quacks'" "I know him better than they do" "One more utterance from you and I shall place you under arrest!" "I'm willing to hear anything you say, but it must be done in an orderly fashion." "When you've learned respect, you may return." "Until then, go back to your seat and calm down." "This way, Miss." "Order in the court." "Mr Deeds, have you anything to say in defence of these articles?" "Mr Deeds?" " Mark these Exhibit "A" for the plaintiff." " Yes, Your Honour." "Proceed." "They're rather timid, Your Honour, and wish to be together." "I'll only have one testify." " Get on with it." " What is your name, please?" " Jane Faulkner." "This is my sister Amy." " Yes." "Amy." "I'll direct my questions to you, Miss Jane." "You may answer for both." "Do you know the defendant?" "Yes." "Of course we know him." "How long have you known him?" " Since he was born." " Yes." "Elsie Taggart was the midwife." " He was a seven-months baby." " Thank you." "That's fine." "Do you see him very often?" " Most every day." " Sometimes twice." " Must we have the echo?" " Suppose you just answer, Miss Jane." "Will you tell the court what everybody at home thinks of Longfellow Deeds?" " They think he's pixilated." " Yes." "Pixilated." " He's what?" " What was that you said he was?" " Pixilated." " That's rather a strange word to us." " Can you tell us what it means?" " Perhaps I can explain." ""Pixilated" is an early-American expression from the word "pixies", meaning "elves"." "They'd say, "The pixies had got him", as we'd nowadays say a man is "barmy"." "Is that correct?" "Why does everyone think he's pixilated?" "Does he do peculiar things?" "He walks in the rain without his hat and talks to himself." " Sometimes he whistles." " And sings." "Anything else?" " He gave Chuck Dillon a thumping." " Blacked his eye." " And why?" " For no reason, I guess." "He always does it." "We run into the house when we see him coming." "Never can tell what he's going to do." " He sure is pixilated." " Yes." "He's pixilated, all right." "Thank you, ladies." "That's all." "They kept hollering, "Back to nature!"" "I thought they looked harmless enough, so I took them home." "I never thought he was cracked." "I'm a waiter." "He kept pressing me to point out the celebrities." "I'm coming out of the kitchen minutes later, he's mopping up the floors with them." "I never figured he was looking for trouble." "He threw us out bodily, but bodily!" "We was hired as his bodyguards, see?" "But he locks us in a room, see?" "If that gets around in our profession, we get the bird." "So I says to my partner, "Let's quit this guy." "He's nuts!"" "I'm very fond of Clarissa." "She's a nice horse." "And when he started feeding her doughnuts," "I yelled down to him, "Mind what you're doing down there."" "I wouldn't mind, sir, but Clara won't eat nothin' but doughnuts now." "If the court pleases, I call upon Dr Emil Von Hallor, if he'll give us his opinion." "He is the eminent psychiatrist, a great authority on the subject." "He's here on a lecture tour and has volunteered his services." " Dr Von Hallor." " Dr Von Hallor." "Do you swear the testimony you give before this court shall be the truth and nothing but the truth?" " Name?" " Emil Von Hallor." "Take the stand." "Dr Von Hallor, would you tell the court what your opinion is of this case?" "This is purely a case of manic depression." "A case of this kind, patients sometimes go on for years before being detected." "You remember, in my last book, there were some very fine examples, especially the young nobleman." "Yes, Dr Von Hallor." "Very interesting." "It reminds me very much of this one." "It takes so long to detect them, because their mood changes so often and so quickly." "Now, Your Honour, may I show you?" "May I use the chart?" "By all means." "Below here, they are extremely depressed, melancholy, impossible to live with and often become violent." "From this mood, the manic depressive might gradually change until they reach this state." "Here is lucidity." "Here they are normal, as normal as you or I." "Assuming, of course, that we are normal." "Then the mood changes again until they reach this state, a state of highest exultation." "Here, everything is fine." "Here, the world is beautiful." "Here, they are so elated..." "How to express it?" "...they would give you the shirts off their backs." "How would you say that applied to Mr Deeds' case?" "The symptoms are obvious." "When he was here, on top of the wave, he felt nothing but kindliness and warmth for his fellow man." "He wanted to have them around him, so he decided to give a big reception." "But in the meantime, his mood has changed." "He's now at the bottom of the wave:" "Depressed, melancholy." "So when his guests arrive, he throws them out." "They are now his imaginary enemies." "Other instances of high elations are when he plays his tuba, when he writes his poetry, when he chases fire engines in a desire to help humanity." "This is contrasted with his present mood, which is so low that even the instinct for self-preservation is lacking." "Your Honour, this is decidedly a case of manic depression." "Thank you very much, Doctor." "Your Honour, we rest." "Are you going to let them get away with it?" "They've got you cooked." "He's sunk." "Mr Deeds..." "Before the court arrives at a decision, isn't there anything you wish to say?" "Come on." "Don't be a sap." " You both concur?" " Absolutely." "All right." "Mr Deeds..." "In view of the extensive testimony, your continued silence, and on the recommendation of the doctors, the court considers it advisable, for your own safety, that you be committed to an institution as prescribed by law." "You need medical attention, Mr Deeds." "Perhaps in a little while..." "No!" "Wait a minute." "You can't do it." "You've got to make him talk." " I object!" " Please." "I know how horrible I've been." "No matter what happens, do this for me." " Please." " You said I could speak." "You said I could have my say." "Please let me take the witness chair." "He must be made to defend himself before you decide." " Take the stand." " Thank you." " She has no bearing on the case." " Let her speak." "I know why he won't defend himself." "He's been hurt." "He's been hurt by everybody, principally by me." "He's been the victim of every crook in town." "The newspapers made him a target for their feeble humour." "I was smarter than the rest." "I got closer so I could laugh louder." "Why shouldn't he keep quiet?" "Every time he said anything, it was twisted around." "He can thank me for it." "I handed them a laugh." "A fitting climax to my sense of humour." " This is preposterous." " I wrote those articles." "I was going to get a raise, a month's vacation." "But I stopped writing them when I found out what he was all about." "He could never fit in with our distorted viewpoint, because he's honest and sincere and good." "If that man's crazy, the rest of us belong in strait-jackets!" " This is absurd." "She's in love with him." " What's that got to do with it?" " You are, aren't you?" " Yes!" "Her testimony's of no value." "Why shouldn't she defend him?" "Typical womanhood." "Protect the weak." "Nobody dislikes the boy." "I have a fond affection for him." " But that doesn't mean to say..." " I can verify what Miss Bennett said." "I'm her editor." "She told me what a swell fellow this man was." "Anything Babe Bennett says is OK with me." "If you've anything to say, take the stand." "I've already said it." "I just thought I'd like to get my two cents in." "Don't be a sucker." "Speak your piece." " I've got a couple of cents." " Sit down." " I've been with him since he came here." " Sit down!" "There will be no interruptions." " How about us, Mr Deeds?" " What about us, Mr Deeds?" " Order!" " Don't leave us out in the cold!" "They're trying to frame you." " Stop this." " Order!" "Order!" "In the interest of Mr Deeds, I have tolerated a great deal of informality." "But if there is one more outburst, I shall have the courtroom cleared." " Your Honour?" " Yes?" "I'd like to get in my two cents' worth." "Take the stand." "Proceed." "I don't know where to begin." "There has been so much said about me that..." "About my playing the tuba." "It seems like a lot of fuss has been made about that." "If a man's crazy just because he plays the tuba, somebody'd better look into it, because there are a lot of tuba players running around." "I don't see any harm in it." "I play mine whenever I want to concentrate." "That may sound funny to some people, but everybody does something silly when thinking." "For instance..." "The judge here is an "O" filler." " A what?" " An "O" filler." "You fill in all the spaces in the O's with your pencil." "I was watching." "That may make you look a little crazy, just sitting around, filling in O's, but I don't see anything wrong, 'cause that helps you think." " Other people are doodlers." " Doodlers?" "That's a name for people who make foolish designs on paper when thinking." "It's called doodling." "Almost everybody's a doodler." "Did you ever see a scratch pad in a telephone booth?" "People draw the most idiotic pictures when they're thinking." "Dr Von Hallor here could probably think up a long name for it, because he doodles all the time." "Thank you." "This is a piece of paper he was scribbling on." "One minute it looks like a chimpanzee." "The next minute it looks like a picture of Mr Cedar." "You look at it." "Exhibit "A" for the defence." "Looks kind of stupid." "But that's all right." "If Dr Von Hallor has to doodle to help him think, that's his business." "Everybody does something different." "Some people are ear pullers." "Some are nail biters." "That Mr Semple over there is a nose twitcher." "The lady next to him is a knuckle cracker." "So you see, everybody does silly things to help them think." "Well, I play the tuba." " Nice work, toots!" " Order in this court!" "This is becoming farcical." "I demand Mr Deeds confine himself to facts." "Let him explain his wanderings in his underclothes, his feeding doughnuts to horses." "Proceed." "Mr Cedar's right." "Those things do look kind of bad, don't they?" "But to tell you the truth, Your Honour, I don't remember them." "I guess they happened, because I don't think a policeman would lie, but I was drunk." "It was the first time I was ever drunk." "It's probably happened to you some time." "I mean, when you were younger." "It's likely to happen to anybody." "Just the other morning, I read about Mr Cedar's own son, how he got drunk and insisted on driving a taxicab while the driver sat inside." "Isn't that so?" "Isn't that so?" " Your Honour, I object." " Proceed." "Now, about the Faulkner sisters." "That's funny, Mr Cedar going to Mandrake Falls to bring them here." " Do you mind if I talk to them?" " Not at all." "Jane, who owns the house you live in?" " Why, you own it, Longfellow." " Yes, you own it." " Do you pay any rent?" " No, we don't pay any rent." "Good heavens, no." " We never pay you rent." " Are you happy there?" " Oh, yes." " Yes, indeed." "Now, Jane, a little while ago you said I was pixilated." "Do you still think so?" "Why, you've always been pixilated, Longfellow." " Always." " That's fine." "I guess maybe I am." "Now, tell me something, Jane." "Who else in Mandrake Falls is pixilated?" "Why, everybody in Mandrake Falls is pixilated, except us." "Now, just one more question." "You see the judge here." "He's a nice man, isn't he?" " Do you think he's pixilated?" " Yes." "Yes, indeed." "You haven't yet touched upon the most important point:" "This rather fantastic idea of yours to give away your entire fortune." "It is, to say the least, most uncommon." "Yes, I was getting to that, Your Honour." "Suppose you were living in a small town, getting along fine, and suddenly somebody dropped $20 million in your lap." "Suppose you discover all that money was messing up your life, was bringing vultures around your neck, making you lose faith." "You'd be worried." "You'd feel that you had a hot potato in your hand, and you'd want to drop it." "Dr Von Hallor here would say you were riding on those bottom waves, because you wanted to drop something burning your fingers." "If this man carries out his plan, repercussions will rock the foundation of our entire government." "Please, Mr Cedar." "Proceed." "Personally, I don't know what Mr Cedar is raving about." "No matter what system of government we have, there'll always be leaders and always be followers." "Like the road in front of my house, on a steep hill." "Every day, I watch the cars climbing up." "Some go lickety-split up that hill, some have to shift into second." "Some sputter and shake and slip back to the bottom again." "Same cars, same gasoline, yet some make it and some don't." "I say the fellows who can make the hill should stop and help those who can't." "That's all I'm trying to do, help fellows who can't make the hill." "What does Mr Cedar expect me to do?" "Give it to people who don't need it?" "If you don't mind, I'll ride on those top waves for a minute." "All you fellows up there, all those who applied for a farm, stand up." "See them?" "They're the ones I'm trying to help." "Mr Cedar and Mr Semple don't need anything." "They've got plenty." "It's like I see one fellow in a rowboat who's tired of rowing and wants a free ride and another who's drowning." "Who would you expect me to rescue?" "Mr Cedar, who wants a free ride?" "Or those men who are drowning?" "Any 10-year-old child will give you the answer to that." "Thank you." "Sit down." "Now, my plan was very simple." "Give each family 10 acres, a horse, a cow and some seed, and if they worked the farm for three years, it's theirs." "If that's crazy, I ought to be sent to an institution, but I don't think it is, and Mr Cedar doesn't either." "Before the hearing, he offered to call everything off if I made a settlement." "He wouldn't think I was crazy if he got paid off." "It's a lie growing in his warped imagination." "I never heard anything so stupid in my life." "It's an insult to our intelligence to listen to such ravings." " You will permit Mr Deeds to finish." " But, Your Honour..." " Anything else, Mr Deeds?" " No." "Yes." "There is one more thing I'd like to get off my chest." " Proceed." " Thank you, Your Honour." "Order!" "Order this man back to his chair!" "Order!" "Remain seated and come to order." "The court is again in session." "Before the court announces its decision, I want to warn all who are here that the police have orders to arrest anyone creating a disturbance." "Mr Deeds, there has been a great deal of damaging testimony against you." "Your behaviour, to say the least, has been most strange." "But in the opinion of the court, you are not only sane, you are the sanest man that ever walked into this courtroom." "Case dismissed." "You nose twitcher." "I knew it, I knew it." "You..." " He's still pixilated." " He sure is." "Subtitles:" "SDI Media Group"

"I don't know why you always wait for me." "There's no need." "I want to be the first to greet you every day." "Well, as I said...there's no need." "There's " "There's every need." "And I will keep it up until you explain to me what has gone wrong between us." "Explain what?" "My life is perfect." "And then, in the space of one day, it is nothing." "To me, that requires an explanation." "Oh, good morning, Miss Baxter." "Hello, Mr Bates, Mrs Bates." "I wondered if you'd help me." "We will, if we can." "It's my sewing machine." "I have no sockets in my room." "And, as the sewing room is in the laundry wing," "I wondered if Mrs Hughes might let me use it in the servants' hall." "I should ask her, if I were you." "Yes, of course." "I'll do that." "What do you make of her?" "She's nice." "Which prompts me to wonder what she sees in our friend Thomas." "You know the old saying." "'There's nowt so queer as folk.'" "We'll miss breakfast, if we're not careful." "Are you happy for us to be teaching Alfred to cook?" "It's Mr Carson you should ask." "Ask me what?" "About the kitchen staff helping Alfred to train for his test." "He's been accepted for it, then?" "Not yet, no." "But he'd like to be ready if he is." "I suppose it's all right." "Alfred is a hard worker." "I'll give him that." "And if cooking's his chosen path..." "Good." "I was just checking I wasn't inciting a revolution." "There we are..." "My Lady." "I think I've remembered everything." "But..." "I'll just stay here while you check." "It seems perfect, but..." "What's this?" "Well, I know Americans often drink orange juice with breakfast." "So I thought you might like it." "That is so considerate, Baxter." "Thank you." "Good morning, My Lord." "Good morning." "You look very jovial." "It's just Baxter reminding me of times gone by." "You're pleased with her." "I am, thank heaven." "What's your day looking like?" "Tom and Mary have summoned me to the library." "They have an idea." "I hope it's not something you're going to fight about." "How can I answer that when I don't know what it is." "So if we find a job for the boy, it'll make a difference to his mother." "Oh, a big difference." "If you really want to help Mrs Pegg, this will be of more use than a world of tea and sympathy." "Well, I don't need anyone else here." "I know." "But would you talk to the head gardener up at the abbey?" "Or maybe even talk to Lady Grantham." "She takes her garden seriously." "You don't have to tell me that." "I'm sorry." "When's the funeral?" "Tomorrow." "Will you go?" "I will." "His forebears have been tenants since the reign of George III." "Be that as it may, the rent's not been paid for ages." "We've served all the papers." "It's time to get on with it." "You mean, foreclose the lease and farm the land ourselves?" "That's what we discussed." "It's sad, though." "After such a long time in the hands of one family." "The world moves on, and we must move with it." "So you keep telling me." "Talking of the world moving on, I suppose you've seen this." "'The engagement is announced between the Viscount Gillingham and the Honourable Mabel Lane Fox, only child of the late Lord Osweston.'" "Well, I must..." "write and congratulate him." "Now..." "let me get on." "But it's electric." "Aren't you worried it'll run away with itself and sew your fingers to the table?" "I certainly hope not." "How do you operate it?" "With a pedal - under my foot." "Well, I don't think it has any business in a servants' hall." "But there's no socket in her room." "She could take it to the laundry." "Or, better still, chuck it out altogether!" "Mrs Patmore is not what you'd call a futurist (!" ")" "I think I'd got there already (!" ")" "Anna." "I've forgotten something." "You must forgive me, Mr Bates." "I'm afraid I'm keeping Anna too busy." "Would you like to have a try?" "Anna?" "I don't know why you must be so hard on Mr Bates." "At least you know now there'll be..." "no baby." "No." "Then, can't you start to get past it and... and tell him something?" "He'd know if it wasn't the truth." "He sees through me." "He can read me like a book." "I wish he could read you." "And take you out of this..." "veil of shadows." "Don't you want to be honest with him?" "Of course I do." "But I know him." "I know what he'd do." "And I can't risk his future." "Well...it's your secret and not mine." "But I think it's a mistake." "And you're sure you have a feel for gardening?" "I am, Your Ladyship." "I'm not a ladyship." "Just Mrs Crawley." "I..." "I don't know much now." "But I'm a grafter." "And a quick learner." "I cannot make promises, but I will try and find something for you." "Thank you very much, Your Ladyship." "Will you show him out?" "He's going to be so disappointed when he finds out how ordinary I really am." "You're part of the family." "That's how the village sees you." "It's not how the family see me." "Oh, I'm not so sure about that." "Lord and Lady Grantham have always been as kind as they can be." "And I appreciate it." "But I am not one of them." "And that's the end of it." "Lord Grantham admires you very much." "But if it serves you to think yourself unloved, nothing I say will change that." "I think that's rather harsh." "Lord Grantham." "It was a very good service." "Your father would've been pleased." "Thank you." "Do you have far to go?" "I'm staying at Yew Tree Farm." "Of course." "Let us know when you're ready to leave." "There's no hurry." "The thing is, My Lord, I...don't want to move out." "I want to take on the tenancy." "What?" "If it's still possible." "I'm sorry to be the one to say it, but I don't believe it is." "The notices have been served." "The case is closed." "You mean, you want to farm the land yourself." "Then it's all settled." "Mr Drewe, it's no good painting me as Simon Legree." "We gave your father a long time to get straight." "And left him in peace at the end of his life." "He never told me about the debt." "Or I'd've tried to help him." "Because my ancestors have farmed at Yew Tree since the Napoleonic Wars." "Surely, that's got to mean something." "It means a great deal to me." "Then, can we talk about it, My Lord?" "Please?" "Come tomorrow morning, if you wish." "But I can't see what good it will do." "Don't take it off too soon." "Let it bubble a bit, or you'll taste the flour." "So...is this enough?" "I'd say so, yeah." "Now put it to one side while you check your casings." "My, my." "Something smells good." "Alfred's making tarts with an egg and cheese filling." "Oh." "Bouchees de fromage." "They could be tonight's savoury." "Do you think?" "I don't see why not." "I'll fetch the eggs." "Well done, Daisy." "It's very hard, Mrs Patmore." "I feel like I'm helping him to leave us." "And so you are." "Which is as it should be, now he's decided to go." "So, what's next?" "We'll add egg and cheese to the white sauce, if Mrs Patmore doesn't mind." "I don't mind at all, Daisy." "You can help him enrich the bechamel." "Your Ladyship." "My Lady." "Is that the afternoon post?" "Is there anything for me?" "There's just a couple for His Lordship, My Lady." "Were you expecting something?" "Not particularly." "I haven't heard from Michael in a bit, that's all." "I expect he's busy." "(DOOR CLOSES) What have you been up to?" "I was writing to Tony Gillingham." "Give him my regards." "Say we look forward to knowing Miss Lane Fox." "I am surprised." "I thought he was rather keen on you." "Not for the first time, you've got the wrong end of the stick." "Oh." "I thought you were Robert." "Is he back from his funeral?" "Not yet, I don't think." "While he's not here, shall we discuss his birthday?" "Oh, does he have a birthday soon?" "Fairly soon." "Do you have any plans?" "Nothing beyond his favourite food." "It's not a special one." "Why don't we have a party?" "To cheer ourselves up." "A small one." "That'll be fun." "But Maley may have a candidate of his own that he wants to bring forward." "So, you do need extra help." "I suppose so." "The last boy went off to a frightfully grand rectory." "Then, will you take young Pegg?" "He impressed me so favourably." "You know, I wonder your halo doesn't grow heavy." "It must be like wearing a tiara round the clock." "Will you help him?" "His mother would be very grateful." "And so would I. Yes, but your gratitude never seems to last." "I've no sooner said yes than you come back with another request." "Will you?" "Very well." "Very well." "But he'd better turn out to be all the things you say he is." "Thought I'd get an extra 10 minutes in before the gong goes." "You can help me with this." "Sybbie says there's going to be a hurricane any moment now." "A hurricane?" "Really?" "In Yorkshire?" "So we're getting all the animals under shelter." "I'm sure you are." "Where's Nanny?" "Collecting some clothes from laundry." "I said I'd stay with them." "She's so much more relaxed than our nanny ever was." "My childhood wasn't anything like Sybbie's." "Nor mine, God knows." "Do you think she's having a good childhood?" "That we're doing well?" "I think you're doing your best for her..." "if that's what you mean." "It isn't quite." "Oh." "I think it's time for the hurricane." "Whoo!" "Uh-oh." "Uh-oh." "(LAUGHS)" "This came for you in the last post." "Is that the letter that says if they'll see you?" "I think it must be." "Well, open it, then." "Oh, go on." "Don't keep us in suspense." "I want it so much." "I can't bear to find out I've not got it." "Give it to me, then." "Well, they are going to test you." "Oh, they are." "But, by 'eck." "It's the day after tomorrow." "They don't give you much time." "Oh, this was posted 10 days ago." "It must've got lost." "He'll be fine." "He knows his stuff." "Course he does." "Doesn't he, Daisy?" "He does, yeah." "What's this?" "Alfred's got his test." "At The Ritz." "I'm happy for you, Alfred." "Anna... (GONG)" "That's the gong." "I shouldn't worry, Mr Bates." "She's got ever so much on her plate." "Haven't we all?" "Oh, bravo!" "Very good!" "She's right." "I couldn't have done better myself." "Now." "Take them up and say you cooked 'em." "I couldn't." "Well, Mr Carson can say it." "And what are they supposed to do?" "Hang out the flags?" "Oh, don't grudge him his success." "I don't." "I just can't see the fun in a life chained to a stove." "Are the savouries ready to go up?" "They certainly are." "I say." "Well done." "We'll be sorry to lose you, Alfred." "But I think you'll pass your test." "Fingers crossed, My Lady." "When is it?" "The day after tomorrow." "I'm going up in the morning." "Our best wishes go with you." "(CLEARS THROAT)" "I'm going up myself tomorrow." "Oh?" "Just for the day." "To visit Michael's office." "I'll be back for dinner." "All alone?" "I seem to be." "I don't know why." "How are you getting on with Her Ladyship?" "Pretty well..." "I think." "You've done America and praised Lady Sybil?" "Have I not (!" ")" "You name it, I've said it." "She'll be eating out of your hand." "That's the intention." "No enemies downstairs neither." "That was Miss O'Brien's mistake." "Nobody liked her, so nobody told her anything." "They don't like you much." "That's why you're here." "To rectify that failing on my part." "Is it true you've moved into the house again?" "Mrs Hughes said so." "It seemed easier when I was looking after Her Ladyship as well as you." "But she has her own maid now." "Why not go back to the cottage?" "I haven't got round to it." "Anna, if you're in difficulties, I wish you'd tell me." "I'm not, My Lady." "Honestly." "I've come to say goodbye." "Thank you for all your help." "Just keep calm." "You know enough to do well if you keep calm." "Very good luck, Alfred." "Is there anything I ought to know about London?" "There's quite a lot you ought to know about London, dear." "And no time to tell it now or he'll miss his train." "This afternoon, when Her Ladyship comes down," "I don't want any backchat - she must see everything is in order, all neat and tidy." "What's happened to your apron?" "Why?" "What should " "Oh, my God!" "What's up?" "Well..." "I must've caught it on a nail." "My other's in the wash." "And Her Ladyship's due!" "Oh, don't worry." "Miss Baxter'll sort that out." "Give it here." "Right." "I thought you wouldn't mind if Alfred rode in the front, My Lady." "He's catching the same train." "Of course I don't mind." "We all wish you luck, Alfred." "I'm going to need it, My Lady." "It's his first trip to London." "How exciting." "Exciting's one word for it." "You want to reverse the foreclosure and take the lease, but you still can't pay all the arrears." "It doesn't seem a very enticing offer." "I'll pay." "And it won't take long." "Even so..." "I'm a Yorkshireman, My Lord." "This is where I belong." "We've worked this land in partnership with the Crawleys for more than a century." "In partnership with the Crawleys?" "I don't mean to be impertinent." "I do not hear it as impertinence." "We have been in partnership." "We're in partnership with all our tenants." "Or, we should be." "Then, will you let me come home?" "I'll see what I can do." "Thank you, My Lord." "I'll be at the farm." "Mr Drewe." "I would prefer to report that you are prepared to repay the arrears in full." "I'll lend you the difference myself." "You'd do that for me?" "It won't be less than £50." "I'll send a cheque when I'm sure of the outcome." "You won't regret it." "No." "I don't think I will." "Do you think Alfred has a chance with his cooking?" "I think he's got more than a chance, judging by what Mrs Patmore has to say on the subject." "Because I've got an idea that might kill two birds with one stone." "We'll be short of a footman any day and Mr Molesley will be short of a job." "What say we deal with the two problems together?"

"I expect they say that to everyone." "That's enough, James." "And Alfred - to fail at the first attempt does not mean that you won't succeed later." "Quite right." "Might I have a word, Mr Carson?" "Certainly." "I've given it a lot of thought." "Have you, indeed (?" ") First," "I needed to deal with my father's disappointment, when he learned of my downward path."

"But I will not allow him back in the house." "And I will have to speak to my head gardener about it." "That will do him a lot of harm." "Well, what would you prefer?" "That I invite the local criminals to drop in and strip the house bare?" "Why not ask to be told when a gardener is coming inside?" "So that you or a servant can keep watch." "Then we'll have time to investigate the loss of the knife." "Or have you already scented blood?" "As a matter of interest, do you ever doubt?" "I don't doubt the honesty of young Pegg." "That is not at all what I asked." "I'm very grateful, My Lady." "You didn't have to do this, but it determines me to prove I'm worthy of your faith." "I can't pretend to take the credit, Mr Drewe." "It was His Lordship who was determined you should stay." "You owe your thanks to him." "He'll have my thanks, My Lady." "And he'll have the rest of the payment before he's missed it." "What payment?" "Remainder of the debt." "I thought you'd know about it." "And so we do." "Of course we do." "I'm sorry." "I was being absent-minded." "How much is it?" "I've forgotten." "It's only the last £50." "He sent a cheque so I can pay off the full amount and wipe the slate clean." "Well, thank you, Mr Drewe." "I'm sure we have many fruitful years ahead of us." "Are you going to challenge him?" "No." "If Papa believes enough in Drewe to lend him the money, and to hide it from us, then that tells me something." "What, exactly?" "That you and I are in partnership with a very decent man." "Mrs Hughes, can I have a word?" "I know you told Mr Bates about me while I was out yesterday." "He put me in a very...difficult..." "I'm afraid he guessed who it was." "But you denied it." "Denied it?" "I swore on my mother's grave it wasn't him..." "God help me." "He seems to have accepted your word." "In fact..." "I'm moving back into the cottage." "Oh!" "Oh, I'm..." "I'm so pleased." "At least if I'm damned for all eternity, it was to some purpose." "You won't be damned." "Mr Bates has shown great generosity of spirit." "As I knew he would." "Eventually." "So...we're going to try and put the whole thing behind us." "I hate to think of that evil man getting away scot free." "But maybe it's for the best." "I thought you'd like to know." "What are you grinning about?" "What do you think?" "He's not going." "Mr Bates." "I'm so glad to see you." "Anna's told me what's gone on between you." "And it's made me happier than I can say." "To think it's all over and done with." "Nothing's over and done with, Mrs Hughes." "But Anna said - Do you think I would add to her burden, after all she's been through?" "I don't know his name, so I can't tell it to you." "Not if you were to threaten me with a knife, Mr Bates." "I understand." "And I won't press you." "But be aware." "Nothing is over." "And nothing is done with." "Michael's vanished into thin air." "If anything had happened, we'd know." "I was a fool to think we could leave it behind." "I'm the failure here, not you." "Can I interrupt?" "Mr Napier and Mr Blake are here in a few days." "You're here to advise the landowners on how to get through this crisis, aren't you?" "Not quite." "You seem to have brought a traitor into our midst." "Not a traitor." "I wonder you don't just set fire to the abbey and dance round it." "Painted with woad and howling (!" ") I might." "If it would do any good." "This came in the evening post."

"I've got your service record here, major." "A lot of fireworks." "A lot of transfers." "One tough scrape after another, very short on discipline." "Very short on discipline." "I hear you did a pretty good job in Italy." "Then you loused it up by exceeding your orders." "And that's not the first time." " I didn't write those reports, sir." " What is that supposed to mean?" "I don't necessarily agree with what's in them." " Maybe you'd like to write your own?" " No, thank you, sir." "I'm not very interested in embroidery, only results." "Now, you hold it right there." "This war was not started for your private gratification." "And you can be damn sure that this Army isn't being run for your personal convenience, either." "You've been waiting for a transfer for over two months now." "With a record like yours, you could go on waiting forever." "However, I get orders too." "And right now I've got some that sound as if they were made for somebody just like you." "Personally, I don't go for this behind- the- lines nonsense." "As far as I'm concerned, a soldier's job is to wear his uniform and kill the enemy." "But that's another matter." "I'm gonna ask General Denton to read these orders just as they came down to us." "After, if you have any questions, ask." "Understand?" " Yes, sir." " General." ""Project Amnesty:" "You will select 12 prisoners sentenced to death or long - term imprisonment for murder, rape, robbery or other violent crimes." "Train these prisoners in as much of the behind- the- lines operations as they can absorb in a brief but unspecified time." "You'll then deliver them secretly to Europe and prior to the invasion attack and destroy the target specified:" "Overleaf. "" " That's all?" " That's all." "What about the target specified, Overleaf?" "Doesn't concern you now." "Well, what do you say, major?" "I'd say it confirms a suspicion I've had for some time now, sir." "Do you think we might share that suspicion, major?" "I think you should." "Since I'll have to assume we're over here to win the war it wouldn't pay to advertise that one man we're working for is a raving lunatic." "Now, that's enough, major." "You're here to be briefed on an operation." "You have permission to ask questions about that operation." "You do not have permission to make personal comments concerning the officers responsible for its conception." " Now, is that clear?" " Yes, sir." "Ask relevant questions or shut up." "Is it relevant to ask why I'm being offered this mission?" "It's not, as you say, being offered." "I'm volunteering." "Exactly, major." "I'm glad you look at these things so realistically." "I don't mean to appear unduly cautious, but if my personal survival depends on the performance of 12 deadheads it might be helpful to know exactly what I'm training them for." "Now, that's a very good question, major." " Armbruster, let's have the basic outline." " Yes, sir." ""The Germans are using a large chateau near Rennes in Brittany as a rest center and a conference place for general staff officers. "" "The target has no real military value itself but with these conferences, discussion groups and the like going on there's hardly a day when there aren't a considerable number of important general officers in residence." "Usually with the benefit of female companionship." ""Eliminating a number of senior officers couldn't but have the effect of disrupting their chain of command. "" "The idea is simply that our men are dropped by parachute." "They enter the chateau and kill as many senior officers as is possible in the time available." "Naturally, the place is fortified and heavily guarded." "Naturally." "What's the deal with the men?" "None whatsoever." "Let's have no misunderstanding about that." "It's exactly what it says, an amnesty." "A temporary postponement." "You take it or leave it on that basis." "Like you say, sir, let's not have any misunderstandings." "I don't like it." "I think it stinks." "I've had enough of your insolence." "It's not a question of insolence but of practicality." "I'm the guy that's being asked to sell this idea to 12 happy, smiling faces, right?" "They do have an alternative way to go, you know." " That's no way for anybody to go." " Oh, the hell you say, major." "Why, I know a lot of people who should go exactly that way." "But that's beside the point." "Now, come on, major, what's your basic objection?" "These men are, by definition, incapable of any discipline or authority much less intensive training." "If there isn't a possibility for a remission of their sentence they have nothing to look forward to and no reason to cooperate, right?" "Got a point." "You got a point, major." "However, as you know, I don't have the power to reverse the findings of a court - martial." "You do have the power to commute the sentence of such a court." " Excuse me, general." " Yes?" "You do have authority under the Visiting Forces Act to make such a ruling." " Visiting Forces Act?" " Yes, sir." "All right, major, you got a deal." "Let's say that if any of these men distinguish themselves then we will give serious consideration to commuting their sentences." "That's no deal." "Who's to say whether they really distinguish themselves or not?" "You can leave that decision to me." "But remember, the other alternative will apply with equal force." "Any breach of security, any failure of discipline those prisoners go right back where they came from." " Understood?" " Yes, sir." "Good." "Anything more, gentlemen?" "Well, yes, sir." "I noticed Colonel Breed in the waiting room." "I wondered whether he was connected with this operation." " What if he is?" " I'd be very unhappy, sir." "Major, Colonel Breed is your superior officer." "And you will behave accordingly, at all times." " Is that clear?" " Yes, sir." "Now, it so happens that Colonel Breed is not concerned with this operation." "But he is running the parachute school where part of your training will be." "I don't want to hear any complaints, from either of you." "Now, you've got a job to do, mister, so move it." "Yes, sir." "Thank you, gentlemen." "Major Reisman seems to be heading to his own court - martial." "He's the most ill- mannered, ill- disciplined officer it's ever been my displeasure to meet." "You think so, Denton?" "You may be right." "But he's sure right about one thing." "Somebody up there must be a raving lunatic." "Let's get Colonel Breed in here." "Open." "All right, you men, this is an exercise period." "So exercise!" "Major Reisman, Sergeant Bowren, sir." " Have the prisoners fall in." " Sir." "Prisoners, fall in." "All right, come on now." "Get with it!" " Come on, come on." " Move it!" "Come on, move!" "Hey, you, move, I said, move." ""Franko, V.R." "Death by hanging." "Vladek, M." "Thirty years' hard labor." "Jefferson, R.T." "Death by hanging." "Pinkley, V.L." "Thirty years' imprisonment." "Gilpin, S." "Thirty years' hard labor." "Posey, S." "Death by hanging." "Wladislaw, T." "Death by hanging." "Sawyer, S.K." "Twenty years' hard labor." "Lever, R." "Twenty years' imprisonment." "Bravos, T.R." "Twenty years' hard labor." "Jiminez, P." "Twenty years' hard labor." "Maggott, A.J." "Death by hanging. "" "All right, sergeant." "Have them fall in according to height, right to left." "According to height, fall in!" "Come on, you jokers, you heard him." "Get in there!" "Fall in line!" " Come on, move!" " Come on, come on." "Turn around." "Come on, here!" "I said, get in line." "Straighten up your jacket there." "Get over there." " All right, have them count off." " Sir." "Count off!" "Let's see what they can do with a little close - order." " Hut, right!" " Right." "Left, march!" "Hut, hut, hut, hut." "Two, three, four, hut, hut, hut." "Two, three." "Squad, halt!" "About face!" "Left, march!" "Squad, halt!" "Right face!" "At ease." "Now, what did I say to you?" "Or maybe you don't understand English!" " What's the matter, Number 11?" " I got a pain." " Where does it hurt?" " Well, I'll tell you." "It's..." "I wish you would." "And do it correctly, please." "Oh, I don't have to say, sir, I..." "To you or anyone else." "And I don't have to march, either." "And I know the rules." "Why don't you have to march?" "Because condemned men don't have to drill." "And there's nothing you can do about it, mister." "What's your name, son?" "Eleven." "His name is Franko, sir." "Franko, come over here a minute." "Come on." "Look, you little bastard, either you march or I'll beat your brains out." "Understand?" "What'd you see, sergeant?" "I saw the major attacked by the prisoner and forced to defend himself, sir." "All right, have the prisoner taken back to his cell." "Take his head, I'll get his feet." "Now let's see what they can do with a little close - order." "Yes, sir." "Squad, ten - hut!" "Right face." "Forward, march!" "Hut." "Squad, halt!" "About face!" "Forward, march!" "General prisoner Franko, Victor, sir." "So how's the jaw?" "If you're gonna act tough, you should learn how to take care of yourself." "You really should." "You're worried about my jaw?" "Franko's pain bothers the major?" "You were a big man with the syndicate back in Chicago?" "You've seen my record." "Yeah, I've seen your record, so let's knock it off, huh?" "So, what happens first when you hit London?" "You get involved in a penny - ante stickup and start blasting and kill some old guy." "And come away with what?" " What did you have when they got you?" " What did I have?" "What do you mean?" "Come on, big shot." "How much money did you have?" "I had enough." "Two pounds and 10 shilling." "That's almost 10 dollars." "You're gonna get yourself hung for a lousy 10 bucks." " What's that to you?" " Nothing." "Then why don't you get off my back?" "You didn't come to visit me." "What do you want?" "I don't care if they hang you for 10 dollars or 10 cents." "It makes no difference to me." "But it just so happens that temporarily I got a little pull around here." "And I might be able to get you off the hook, if I wanted to." "Are you a general?" "You're not a general, and only a general can grant my reprieve." "Look, stupid." "I'm making you a proposition." "All I want from you is a straight yes or no." " You talk, I'll listen." " Okay." "You either can sweat out the two days you have before the hanging or you join an outfit that I'm putting together." "If you do that, I'll have you out of here in less than 24 hours." "But you'll be worked to death, and there's not a beating you won't take." "And then when I'm satisfied with you you'll go where the Army tells you." "Chances are you'll get killed anyway." "You don't know Victor Franko." " Guard." " All right, what's the deal?" "What's the deal if I do stay alive?" " Might get off the hook." " Count me in." "But you foul up once, anywhere along the line, just once and you'll be back here at the end of a rope." "Hey." "Hey, wait a minute." "Wait a minute!" "What's the matter with you?" "You think I want to die?" "If you do, then you don't know Victor Franko." "How come you speak German?" "Because my old man was a coal miner in Silesia." "If he didn't speak German, he didn't dig coal and he didn't eat." "That was the language he spoke when he came to the States?" "Pretty tough job in those days." "Yeah, it still is." "I don't like officers, not any of them, and I never have." "But you were one yourself, weren't you?" "Yeah, three lousy days." "Somebody must have thought you'd make a good officer." "They made a big mistake, didn't they?" "Well, I thought you claimed he was going over the hill." "What the hell are you talking about, "claimed"?" "He was going over the hill." "My outfit was pinned down by the worst crossfire you ever saw." "Half of them bleeding to death." "And this lover took off like a rabbit with the medical supplies on his back." "The only way to stop him was to shoot him." "Anyhow, he had it coming." "Yeah." "But you only made one mistake, huh?" "Guard." "You let somebody see you do it." "General prisoner Maggott, A.J., sir." ""Maggott, A.J. Death by hanging. "" "Hey, midnight." "Be a real good boy, now, and maybe I'll let you eat with the white folks." "Well, Maggott, I see you've got a sense of humor." "The all" " American hero, laughing in the face of death." "They're not gonna hang me, major." "I never raped that evil slut or any other creature." "The Lord gave me that woman and told me to chastise her." "Then he told you to beat her to death, huh?" "I only do what I'm called on to do." "I was in a state of grace." "And that woman she tried to soil my spirit." "Well, I'm sure you were, Maggott." "But it seems to me I remember a quotation that goes like:" "Vengeance is mine." "Vengeance is mine." "I will repay, sayeth the Lord." "Paul to the Romans, Chapter 12." "Exactly." "Now, isn't that supposed to mean that we leave punishment of the transgressors to his hands?" "That's right, major." "That's exactly what it means." "But it doesn't restrict him to the kind of tools he would use, now does it?" "And like I told you, major, I only do what I'm called on to do." "You know, Maggott, I don't think you're going to hang after all." "I think a man like you is destined for higher things." "Guard." "Besides, us Southern boys have to stick together now, don't we?" "I sure didn't mean to kill that fella." "But you do like I say, and maybe they won't hang you." "Fixing to kill me some other way?" "It might not come to that." "I reckon the folks would be a sight happier if I died like a soldier." "Can't say I would." "Who does this hotshot major think he is?" "Making us play wet nurses to a bunch of scum." "Corporal Morgan." "If you can't find something to do, I'll find something for you." "Now, move it." "Don't sweet - talk me, whitey." "You know why I'm here." "Or maybe you think I should've let those cracker bastards go right ahead and castrate me?" "Seeing what those guys tried to do to you I'd say that you had considerable justification." "Thank you, Mr. Major, sir." "I really do thank you for that." "But the court didn't agree, right?" "So where does that leave you?" "I'm offering you an alternative, which means you can keep fighting." " Who for, major?" " For yourself, if you want." "But the Krauts, they're the real master - race merchants." "That's your war, man, not mine." "You don't like the Krauts, major, you fight them." "Me, I'll pick my own enemies." "That's your privilege." "But you won't be able to exercise it much longer." "Guard." "Because on March 25th, you have a date with the hangman." "That's just six days from now." "Buenos días, major." "You know, sergeant, going over the transcript of that man's trial there are a couple of things I don't get." "Did he ever claim that he didn't do it?" "I beg your pardon, but you haven't been around prisons very much, have you?" "You see, the first thing one learns in prison, everybody is innocent." "This one, he doesn't say too much about that one way or another." "He's only disturbed because we don't allow him to have strings for his guitar." "Sergeant, did you ever lose a man because he hung himself with a guitar string?" "No, sir, I haven't, and I'm not about to." "Well, if he makes the trip, see he gets the strings." "Yes, sir." "Attention!" " Tell the men to be seated." " Yes, sir." "Take seats!" " Guards out." " Sir, I- " " Guards out." " Yes, sir." "You heard him." "Guards, out!" "My name, for those of you who may have forgotten, is Reisman." "You've all volunteered for a mission which gives you just three ways to go:" "You can foul up in training and be sent back here for execution of sentence or you can foul up in combat in which case I'll blow your brains out or you can do as you're told, in which case you might just get by." "You must not attempt to escape." "There will be no excuses, there will be no appeal." "Any breach of either of these conditions by any one of you means you'll all be shipped back for immediate execution of sentence." "You are therefore dependent upon each other." "Any one of you try anything smart and the 12 of you get it right in the head, all right?" "So try to remember that." "Now, are there any questions?" "Sir?" "Do we have to eat with niggers?" "It's all right." "The gentleman from the South made some kind of inquiries about the dining arrangements." "He and his colleagues are discussing the place - card settings." "All right?" "Yes, sir." "Thank you, sir." "Look, corporal, fellas, let's get with it, right?" "Remember?" "Baseball, pitching?" "Chicago's always had the pitching." "But now, as far as As far as hitting goes well, my sister, she can hit better than half them fellas." "Let's move it out!" " Well, what do you think, sergeant?" " I think you'll do just fine, sir." "Don't give me that." "I said, what do you think?" "I think the first chance one of them lovers gets he's gonna shoot the major right in the head, sir." " Thank you, sergeant." " Sir." "Okay, Franko." "Let's go." "All right, move it out." "Come on." "Over there." "Sergeant, have the men fall in, facing me." "Sir." "All right, on your feet." "Fall in over here, double - quick!" "Come on now!" "Come on, snap it up." "Snap it up!" "Jiminez, get in there!" "Ten - hut!" "All right, Franko, get rid of that cigarette." "Thank you." "This will be your new home until further notice." "What there is of it will be built by you, but the construction will in no way interfere with your training." "So the sooner you get it up, the sooner you'll be sleeping in out of the rain." " Sergeant." " Sir?" "You're in charge." "I want this compound up and completed within the month." "Thank you." "If this place was on fire, it'd burn to the ground." "Come on, what are you doing?" "All right, come on." "Let's move." "Come on." "Hey, Maggott, what are you?" "German?" "Hey, what are you trying to do, break the window?" "All right, sergeant, fall them in." "Fall in, in front of the hut." "On the double!" "Round it up!" "At ease." "All right, that'll be all for today." "How come they got all the comforts of home?" "Why can't we put our floor in?" "Why can't we put our windows in?" " Franko's right." " I'd rather sleep in my cell." "Mr. Franko, with his keen eye for detail has noted that the prisoners' quarters are not yet ready." "The answer to that is simple:" "You are not yet ready to occupy that hut with the degree of comfort that you would like." "When I think that you've earned that privilege, I'll let you know." "Reveille is at 0530." "That is all." "Sergeant." "Sir." "You heard the man, chow time!" "Dismissed!" "That's it, fellas." "Speak up, boys." "Speak up." "Wind it up, strike one!" "Hey, Joseph, is that the way they did it in the Polish navy?" "You won't win any cigars that way." "Hey, Franko, number please." "Ask the operator for my nickel back." "Why don't you guys just dry up and blow away?" "Meanwhile, on the Atlantic wall the German forces have been preparing a few nice surprises for you, gentlemen just in case Mr. Churchill is really foolish enough to attempt an invasion." "He may not be unduly worried about this but then, of course, he will not be taking any active part in such an" "Hey, what's this guy's name again?" "You ought to know." "You listen to him every night." " Dumbo, get me a cup of coffee." " You crazy?" "I say shut the guy up." " Sleepy time." " Hey, jump through this, will you?" "Hey, you." "Come here." "You look like an intelligent guy." " You like it here?" " No." "You gonna stay here?" " Well, I ain't got nowhere else to go." " Ah, you're an idiot." "Hey, Wladislaw." "You understand German." "Who's that dame singing about?" "Well, it's about a very lonely girl who's sick and tired of war and being left alone." " Waiting for her man to come home." " Keep that cheap, wailing slut quiet!" "Let's cut out the community sing." "Get some sleep." "You're gonna need it." "Up yours." "Creeps." "They're all creeps." "That's what they are." "Creeps." " Hey, where you going?" " Going to the can." " Want me to come with you?" " You kidding?" "They're after Franko." "You trying to get us all hung?" "We're all dead anyway." "Don't tell me you believe that creep Reisman." "Want that slick bum to make suckers out of you?" "Whose side are you on?" "What's with you?" "What is this, anyway?" "Uncle Tom week?" "You come with me, we're home free." "He doesn't give a damn about you." "If we go on that mission, we all get killed." "That's what they want!" "Those idiots in there are gonna get shot, and they're not even due for hanging." "You, you slob, you slob." "What do you think you got coming?" " Slipped on a bar of soap, huh?" " Yeah." "Pull with your arms, hold with your legs." "Pull with your arms, hold with your legs." "Come on, Jiminez." "Move it." "When the time comes you've got exactly 34 seconds to clear that distance." "I really can't make it, major." "Oh, come on, Jiminez." "Move it." "Don't stop now." "I can't!" "I can't!" " Come on, Jiminez." "Move." " I really can't." "I can't make it, major." "I can't make it!" "I can't make it!" "Jiminez!" "You come back down that rope, you're going straight back to prison." "I can't." "I can't!" "Really, I can't." "Sergeant, give me that weapon." "Take a spin on that rope." "I can't make it." "I can't make it!" "I can't!" "I really can't make it, major." "I can't!" "Boy, look at him go now!" "So you couldn't make it, huh?" "Okay, Posey, let's see a little of that Apache know - how." "Re - thread that pulley and get another rope down here." "Come on!" "Give these other characters a crack at immortality." "You said Mayonnaise was the only one supposed to get on top of that chateau." "But suppose Jiminez gets killed before he gets to the top of that chateau." " Come on, Posey." "Move it." " Come on, get that thing up here." "We'll have it ready in a minute, major." "All right, Franko, you're next." "All right, so much for hygiene on the field." "Now, which one of you guys would like to stick this in the major?" "Well, major, if it's gonna help the war effort..." "Franko, sit down." "You'll get your chance." "Well, let's see..." " Posey." " Me?" "Yeah, step out here." "I'd rather not, sir." "Look, Posey, it's just an example." "Come on, now." "Step out here." "Now, will you hold this knife?" "Posey, it's got a scabbard on it." "It can't hurt anybody." "Tell me, Posey, what did they lock you up for?" "I mean, what did you do?" "I already told you that, sir." "Well, tell me again." "I'm sure that your friends over here would like to know too." " What'd you do, Posey?" " Yeah, fill him in." "This fella kept pushing me." "I don't like to be pushed, so I hit him." "Killed a man with your bare hands because he shoved you?" "I only hit him once." "Only hit him once." "And drove his jawbone right through his brain because he pushed him." " I didn't mean to kill him." " You didn't mean to kill him, but you did." "Now, what would you do if you meant to kill somebody?" "Could you do it?" "If you had to kill somebody with a knife, do you think you could do it?" " Come on." "Tell me." " I'd rather not." "I don't care what you'd rather do." "Come on, stick that knife in me." "You can do that." "Come on." "Major, I don't want to do this." "Come on, Posey." "Just stick it right here in me, it won't hurt." "Come on." " I don't want to hurt you." " You're not." "I'm gonna hurt you." " Posey, stick me." " I don't want no trouble." "You got no trouble." "I'll give you all the trouble you'll get." "Come on, now, Posey." "Just stick that knife right there, right there." "You're a big boy." "You killed a man for shoving you?" "I'm shoving you." " Come on." "Let me have it." " Stick him!" "I'm talking to you." "Give it to me or I'm gonna shove you right through the wall!" "Come on, Posey." "Give it to him!" " Stab him!" " Get him, Posey!" "Come on, Posey!" "I want that knife." "Why won't you give it to me?" " I don't like to be shoved, major." " You're being shoved!" " Stick him!" " Knock him down, Posey!" "Posey." "What a name for a guy like you." " Stop!" " Don't tell me what to do." " I'm giving orders." " I don't like pushing." "Give it to him, Pose!" "Come on!" "I don't like to be shoved." "Stop pushing!" "Posey." "Posey!" " Posey." " Yes, sir?" "Are you all right?" "Yeah." "All right, now." "Relax." "Come on, get up." "You know, you learn how to take care of that temper of yours ain't nobody gonna take this knife away from you." "You're right." "I'm sorry." "Okay, major." "We're all set." "All right, you go in and see Captain Kinder." " What's he gonna do?" " He's just gonna talk to you, Posey." " Brush yourself off and go on in." " Yes, sir." "All right, which of you gentlemen is next?" "Come on." "I'm looking for a volunteer." "All right, Maggott." "You're next." "Speed it up, men." "Come on, speed it up." "They're looking good." "Yes, sir." "I hope they don't forget what they're getting in shape for." "Captain Kinder figures maybe he can teach me letters." "Folks back home would be proud if I could write." "Well, that would put you way ahead of most of the guys around here." " Better fall in and join them." " Yes, sir." "It's true that I've been blessed with an insight into women that others don't have." "And sometimes..." "Well, sometimes I'm called upon to use it in our beloved master's will." "If women are your special province, why do you hate Major Reisman so much?" "There are 11 evil men out there and they must be punished for their wickedness." "And this Major Reisman, he just snatched them up from the brink of the pit, and he cheated the master of his vengeance." "And you think that's what God wants?" "To punish these men?" "Oh, he will, captain." "He will." "And Major Reisman too." " So, what does that give you?" " It doesn't give me anything." "But along with these other results, it gives you about the most twisted, anti - social bunch of psychopathic deformities ever." "And the worst, the most dangerous of the bunch is Maggott." "You've got one religious maniac, one malignant dwarf, two near - idiots..." "And the rest, I don't even want to think about." "Well, I can't think of a better way to fight a war." "The results of these tests point to the fact that each man has a built - in resentment against any kind of authority." "Any kind." " Don't you?" " But this is different." "These guys think the U.S. Army is their enemy, not the Germans." "Well, they know the U.S. Army." "But the Krauts haven't done anything to them yet." "Very sophisticated." "Well, at least they know the U.S. Army." "You can twist it any way you want." "But the point is you are their main enemy." "And when the time comes, you'll be the number one target." "Well, at least it gives them something in common." "What do you mean?" "They've come a long way individually, further than we have a right to expect." "But not as a unit." "Not as a group." "They've gotta function as a team." "And that's what's lacking." "You think putting them on guard duty will help?" "Well, it might give them a sense of participation." "Why don't you let me weed out the real morons?" "Especially Maggott." "I didn't pick these men, the Army did." "And I didn't pick the assignment either." "This is one time the Army's going with a starting lineup all the way." " Including Maggott?" " Including Maggott." " Cheers." " Cheers." " We could get ourselves hurt, right?" " Why don't you shut up, huh?" "What's the matter?" "You planning to save your mother?" "Why don't you lay off?" "Want me to show you how to do it, huh?" "All right." "Take my arm, put it around your neck." "Very simple, right?" "And then it's all in the leverage." "Better learn how to fall." "You'll end up in a wheelchair." "That's what I tried to tell him." "Trouble is you just don't know how to fall right." "Here." "Slob." "Ah, that's a bad attitude." "Kind of rough on the little fella, aren't you?" "Like to try that with me?" "Now, this is really quite simple." "I'm going to say a word, and you come back at me as fast as you can with whatever comes to mind." "For instance, if I were to say "happiness," you might say "children. "" "I wouldn't say that." "Well, that was just an example." "But if I said "ambition," what would you say?" "I wouldn't say anything." "Well, let's give it a try, okay?" " Weapon." " Baseball." " Knife." " Dodgers." " Officer." " Pitcher." "You seem to be thinking about just one thing, aren't you?" "Yeah." "What are you thinking about?" "Well, you see, I don't want you to think of just one thing." "I'd like for you to concentrate on each word I throw at you." "Okay?" "Okay." "Food." "Cincinnati." " Comfort." " Chicago." " Now, what made you say that?" " That's what I was thinking about." "The hell with it!" "Franko, what is it this time?" "How am I supposed to shave in cold water?" "!" "You're in the field now." "Where are you gonna get hot water?" "The guards got hot water!" "You got hot water!" " You're in the field!" " That's tough." "Right." "How come you guys have hot water and we don't?" "You keep quiet!" "You keep your big mouth shut." " We ain't shaving in cold water!" " Not if all you don't." "You want us to shave in cold water?" "Why don't you?" " That's right." " Yeah!" "Franko means it." "We ain't shaving." "We ain't washing." "Not in cold water!" " Is that right?" " That's right!" "The guards got hot, we won't use cold." "And you can't make us!" "You're gonna get yourself into hot water, Franko." "What are you gonna do?" "You gonna hang us?" "What can they do?" "They can't do nothing!" " Nothing." " Now what are you gonna do?" "You know, I think Franko might be right this time." "Yeah, shaving in cold water won't make us any better soldiers." "Excuse me, sir." "We got some trouble outside." "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "I hear." " All right, sergeant." "Fall them in." " Yes, sir." "All right, fall in." "On your feet!" "Come on, right over here, Posey!" "Come on!" "Dress it up there." "Get in line!" "What's this about refusing to shave?" "Who is refusing to shave?" " We are!" " Who is we?" "We!" "All those refusing to shave, take one step forward." "So you want to stink, huh?" "And maybe itch too?" "Well, that's okay with me because I don't have to smell you." "Sergeant, there will be no further issue of shaving equipment or the use of soap." "And there will be no more hot meals." "Just K rations." "Courtesy of Mr. Franko." "At ease." " Hey, I really think we got something." " Yeah, it's what the Navy calls "mutiny. "" "No, no." "Remember what I was saying last night about 12 rugged individualists?" "So?" "You heard them." "It was "we ain't gonna do this and we ain't gonna do that. "" "When I asked them to step forward, even Posey joined." "I'll bet you he's been shaving in cold water since he was a kid." "Boy, do I love that Franko." "That means that we are going to have that much more time for work." "Right?" "So now, if you..." "You "dirty dozen" have no objections we will get our equipment and we will start in right now." "Attention!" "Ready, hut!" "That's very good." "You look just like real soldiers." "Fall out!" "Now, move it!" "You're still the dirtiest soldiers in this man's army and you're getting filthier every day." "But your training is almost over." "In two days, you'll be learning how to jump with a parachute and you'll learn quick." "This training will take place at a regular Army base." "And I just want to remind you that this operation is secret." "Top secret." "You will not be wearing dog tags." "You will not say anything to anyone." "Do you understand?" "Nothing." "Nothing!" "One word, one slip from any one of you and the deal is off!" "And you all know what that means, right?" "All right, serve it up." "All right, serve it up!" "Colonel Breed won't like this secrecy bit." "He'll want to know." " We're still top- priority, aren't we?" " You can't ignore his author- " " Do we have the juice?" " Yes, but Colonel Br- " "Then I don't care what Colonel Breed likes." "Look, you're supposed to be the liaison officer." "I want you to get orders to the highest echelon stating to Colonel Everett Dasher Breed that a group, over which he will have no authority, will be arriving Tuesday and the identity of the men is secret." "Tell him we got a general with them tell him anything you want, just get that West Point bum off of my back." "A general, huh?" "I'll see what I can do." " I know you will." " Hey, Franko." "What is it, man?" " What kind of food is that?" " Pig face, serve it up!" "What is it?" "I don't know." "I never ate anything like this before." "I've stepped in it a couple of times, but I never ate it." "What is it?" "Did you ask what general?" "Yes, sir." "Got the same thing again." "No information beyond what was in the order." "What about General Denton?" "When we first called, his extension was busy." "Now he's not there." "Not now." " Well, what about you?" " Nothing, sir." "Not now, you..." "I think they're coming." "Yeah, it's them." "Yes?" "Sir, they just passed the checkpoint." "Let's go." "Now." "Now!" "Sounds like we're running into a party." "Boy, you don't suppose it's for us, do you?" "Present arms!" "Major Reisman reporting, sir." "Where's the general?" "He's in the truck." "But you understand that he's traveling incognito." "We thought he might care to inspect our number one platoon." "If you give me a moment, I'll see if he's willing to do that." "Order, halt!" "How come the band?" " What are we waiting for?" " They're inspecting the guest list." " What guest list?" " What's the matter with you?" "Which one of you wants to be a general?" "Be a what?" "Pinkley." "What?" "What kind of a general, sir?" "Just a plain ordinary, everyday, home - loving American general." "I'd rather be a civilian, sir." "What do I have to do?" "You've seen generals inspecting troops." "Just walk slow and act stupid." "Up one rank, down the other, and straight back to the truck." "They're expecting a general, and that's exactly what they'll get." "So let's go." " Move it." "Come on, move it!" " Ten- hut!" "Present arms!" "Move it." "Let's go, move it." "Fall in!" " Pinkley's gonna be a general." " Why?" " Pinkley's gonna be a general." " What for?" "Shut up and watch." "First Platoon waiting for inspection, sir!" "They're very pretty, colonel." "Very pretty." " But can they fight?" " Yes, sir." "I hope you're right." " Where are you from, son?" " Madison City, Missouri, sir." "Never heard of it." "All right, major, let's go." "We got work to do." "Thank you, colonel." "Hold it down." "Hold it down." "You pull a stunt like that again, I'll beat your brains out." "Major, you d- " "Sergeant, fall them into a column of twos, then move out." "Yes, sir." "Fall out." "Fall into column of twos on me." "Fall out!" "Reisman!" "Some people may consider you a first - class officer." "But as far as I'm concerned, you're a disorganized, undisciplined clown." "I'm gonna make it my business to run you out of this Army." "I owe you an apology, colonel." "I always thought that you were a cold, unimaginative, tight - lipped officer." "But you're really quite emotional, aren't you?" "Clayton, Blake." " Hey, watch it." " Look out, will you?" " Hey, hold this." " All right, let's go!" " Do you believe this guy?" " Okay, all right, we're coming!" "Come on, let's go!" "You're in the way." "What's the matter with you guys?" " Listen, buster." " Hands off!" "Now, take it easy." " Just want to ask you a few questions." " Questions, huh?" "Hold him!" "Hold him!" "You son of a..." "In the gut, so it don't show." "That's the way!" "Talk, you bastard." "Who the hell are you?" " Number Nine, you crumb." " Number Nine?" " You gonna tell us or not?" " Go to hell." "Hold him." "Where the hell are your dog tags?" " I ate them." " You ate them?" " You gonna tell us now?" " Yeah." "Yeah." " Number Nine!" " Wladislaw!" "What happened?" "They tried to make me talk." "Where the hell have you been?" " Wait." "What happened to him?" " He slipped on a bar of soap." "Everybody's slipping on soap." "Of all the miserable..." " Who?" " Who?" "Reisman." "He had a couple of those paras jump him." " Major did this?" " Gave him a pretty hard time." " Well?" " Well, what?" "Did he tell them anything?" "Are you crazy?" "Three wise men." ""Trust your major. " I'd rather trust Hitler." " All right, move it out." " Come on, move it!" "Move it!" "You'll find this easier than our jump - tower training." "Action stations!" "Go!" "Morgan." " Yes, sir." " They should be here any minute now." "Get the men together." "I'll talk to them first." " We'll use your hut tonight." " Our hut?" "Your hut." "Yes, sir." "Right away, sir." "All right, Ike and Mike." "Come on, get on your feet." "Come on, let's go." "Move it!" "What are you, the Gold Dust Twins?" "What, you need a special invitation?" " No, sir." " No, sir?" " I mean, yes, sir." " Then move it." "That's TS, Greek." "Why don't you tell it to the chaplain?" "All right, you foul - ups, come on!" "Get over to the MP hut." "The man wants to talk to you." "Come on, move it!" "All right." "Stop pushing." "Come on, off it now." "Let's get going!" "So this is how the other half lives." "Get going!" "Hey, we're not going to the junior prom." " Pretty sweet, huh?" " No dancing." "Come on, let's go!" " They got electricity." " Nice to be rich." " Hey, what does he want to see us for?" " A radio." " A radio?" " Hey, look at those pictures." "Maybe the guards are lonesome." " Horny bunch of mothers." " Wow!" "All right, give them a little air, boys." "Move it, Jiminez." "Okay, sarge." "Well, jump school didn't kill you." "Maybe that stuff will." "Your training's about over and I figure that entitles you to a graduation ball or something." "You have cups and glasses." "All right, wheel them in." "Shall I say they're with your compliments?" "Hell, no." "Tell them it's part of their training." "Yes, sir." "Where are we?" "Oh!" "Somebody in this truck has a cold nose." "Get off me foot!" "Watch yourself, baby." " Have you hurt yourself?" " It's a limey barrack!" "I'm not one for orgies meself." " Should've asked for more money." " Bitch." "You sadists!" " Good evening." " I'm already too worn out to work." " Right this way, ladies." " Move along." "That's nice." "Good evening, major." "I could only get eight, sir." "It's like cops." "If you want one, you can't find them." " Good evening, ladies." " Good evening, admiral." "Blimey, they're filthy!" "They may be, lady, but they sure do mean well." "Hey!" "All present and accounted for, major." "You gentlemen will be on duty again at 0600 hours in the morning." "That's, oddly enough, the same amount of time that these young ladies have allotted to be your guests." "In the meantime, I suggest that you use that time to get acquainted." "I don't believe that Mr. Maggott would care to indulge so I suggest you save some whiskey for him when he gets off of duty." "Good night, gentlemen." "Ladies." "Good night, colonel." " Are you crazy?" " Let's go." "We might inhibit them." " You want to bet?" " Major!" "Yes, you, Major Reisman!" "I saw those filthy strumpets!" "You're turning this place into a bottomless pit of vice!" "Comes Judgment Day!" "And Judgment Day is coming!" "Those men, major, they'll suffer eternal damnation because of you, major!" "Keep your mouth shut and your eyes open." "You're on guard duty, Maggott." "Want to dance?" "There's no music." "Try humming." "All right, girls, you want to lose those wraps?" " Put on that radio." " Make yourself at home." "You think those guys realize tomorrow's Mother's Day?" "Is it?" "Now they're doing it to music." " This is a restricted area, sir." " I know that." "Two groups, three ranks in." "Open the gate." "Come on, let's move it!" "Open this gate." "Yes, sir." "Hey, look at those guys." "You can't come in here, sir!" "Sergeant, take his weapon." "Take his weapon." "Corporal Morgan." "Sergeant, get that rabble in some kind of order." "Yes, sir." "Commander, man to man!" "Sir, you are contravening a direct order." "Contravening nothing!" "Fall in with the rest and speak when you're spoken to." "You heard what the colonel said." "Fall in!" "Come on, move it!" "All right, you heard what he said." "Fall in!" "Come on, come on!" "Let's get the lead out." "What's he all upset about?" "All right, you bunch of foul - ups." "Come on." "Grab a formation." "Fall in there!" "Come on, you yard birds!" "You believe this Army?" "We gotta be losing." "Move it!" "What's wrong with you?" "You got lead in them?" "Come on, get going!" "Hey, ain't those the jokers that roughed you up in the latrine?" "Come on!" "Hey, come on, pick it up!" "Yeah, we had Reisman all wrong." " Come on, move it!" " Not now." "Wait for it." "What's going on up there?" "Hey, you!" "What are you, something special?" "We gotta wait all day for you?" "Come on!" "Get in position there." "Let's try and make a straight line." "Let's look like soldiers, huh?" "I told you nobody could pass." "Now, open the gate." "Let's get going." "Those are the two guys that got Wladislaw." "Those are the two guys that gave Wladislaw his lumps." "Those are the two guys that jumped Wladislaw." "Those are the two guys that banged Wladislaw." "Those two gorillas beat up Wladislaw." "Those are the two guys- " "In my opinion the officer in command of this operation has either disregarded his orders or is flagrantly disobeying them one way or the other." "And that is what I am here to find out." "All right gentlemen, let's understand each other." "I'm here to find out exactly what this is all about and I intend to do it if it takes all day." "Now, you can make it easy or tough on yourself." "That's up to you." "Before I leave, we're going to find out who's involved in this insanity what you're doing here and why." "Is that understood?" "All right, general." "What's your name, rank and serial number?" "You tell him, we've all had it!" "Quiet!" "What's your name, soldier?" "Number Two, sir." "Morgan." "Clayton." "Yes, sir?" "Give Clayton this man's name, rank and serial number." "For all of them." " I really don't know that, sir." " Then tell him what you do know." "You fink, you tell him nothing!" " What was that talk down there?" " Nothing, sir." "Come here, soldier." "When did you bathe last?" " I don't remember, sir." " You're filthy." "You're a disgrace to the uniform." "Sergeant Fredericks, get a razor and water." "He will demonstrate proper procedure for shaving and bathing in the field." " Yes, sir." " Right, soldier?" "No, sir!" "No, sir, what?" "No, sir, I am not going to shave, sir!" "Then we'll have to do it the hard way." "Clayton, Blake, dry - shave him." "Now!" " Reisman!" " That's right!" "You be good enough to have your men dispose of their weapons!" " Sergeant Bowren!" " Sir!" "Get some special help and get those weapons!" "Yes, sir." "All right, you heard the man!" "Now, get moving!" "Hit them only where it hurts." " Turn it loose!" " That's great." "Oh, I'm sorry, sergeant." "You Nazi!" "I'm with you, major, all the way." "Don't call us, we'll call you." "You must be out of your mind." "It might seem that way." "Take it all back, colonel." "They aren't pretty and they can't fight." "They're all 4" " Fs!" "Hey, colonel, I hear they don't even use parachutes!" "Hey, colonel, you crybaby!" "Don't just stand there, pick it up!" " Stick around for tea." " Put some money in there." "Come again, colonel!" "Stop by any time, bozo." "I'm sure you look upon your service record as being highly colorful, major." "Well, that's not my view of it." "I think you know I was never in favor of you leading this operation." "So I can't say that I'm disappointed in your performance." "Because the impression you made on me was unfavorable in the first place." "You behave as if this were a personal matter." "Let me assure you, it isn't." "What happens to you is something to which I am indifferent." "But the nature of the operation I am running is not." "Colonel Breed's report on your unit's level of achievement and general behavior at the parachute training school is entirely negative." "It would in itself justify my recommendation that this operation be canceled." "Your men will be sent back for execution of sentence." "Whether disciplinary action should be taken against you is a matter for General Worden here." "I take it you don't deny your responsibility for the fact that on the night of April 14 - 15, a military establishment of the U.S. Army was the scene of a drunken party at which no less than seven female civilians took an active part." "Oh, yes, sir, they took an active part all right." "Excuse me, gentlemen." "Are you in a position to offer even the remotest mitigating circumstances?" " Yes, sir." " Oh, sergeant, more ice." "Yes, sir." "Well?" "You offered those men a chance to get off the hook, and they worked hard." "Now that they're just shaping up, you're gonna say, "Sorry, the deal's off"?" "You've only yourself to blame for that." "You brought those women to camp." "So I broke an Army regulation." "You're gonna kill five men and send the rest to prison for life?" "Because if you did that you'd have to lock up half the U.S. Army, officers included." "Anyway, you said it yourself, it was my fault." "It's not gonna affect their ability as soldiers." "Yes, well, we've heard about their ability as soldiers from Colonel Breed." "That's his opinion." "My men have crammed six months of intensive training into as many weeks." "As of this moment, I'd stack them up against any men in the Army." "You can't be serious." "You're damn right I am!" "They might not be pretty but any one of mine is worth 10 of yours." " Those comparisons are hardly the point." " It's precisely the point." "My contention is that my men are more than able to handle any job given them." "Now, you gentlemen set this thing up." "You promised them a chance." "At least you can let them show you what they're capable of." "I shudder to think what they might be capable of." "Give them a chance to prove it, then if they fail, your conscience is clear." "Tell me, major just how would you have your men prove it?" "It can't be done, can it?" "Well, yes." "I suppose it could." "I mean, there might be a way." "What I mean is, general, if you recall next week we've got divisional maneuvers in Devonshire." "Yes, yes, yes." "Colonel Breed's outfit will be part of that exercise." "As a matter of fact, one of his companies has been assigned the defense of divisional headquarters." "So?" "So..." "So you let my 12 men act as an independent unit attached to the opposing force." "And they'll knock out Breed's headquarters and capture his entire staff." "That I'd like to see." "So would I." "Charlie and Fox Companies will support the back of the woods." "They'll need supplies from the 2nd Battalion." "Rogers won't like that, but I don't want to hear about it." " Yes, sir." " How's Johnson's armor?" "They just ran through two minutes ago, sir." "The armor's all set." "Hold it!" "Back!" "Change!" "You think we're gonna get away with this?" "Smile, you idiots!" "If those blue slobs recognize us, we're in trouble." "Can you believe it?" "They shaved." "How about that?" "Get a load of the major." "He can't believe we made it." " The day go fast, major?" " You're beautiful, but you're late." " Got everything you need?" " Absolutely." "Think you can remember the plan?" " So where'd you get the vehicle?" " We stole it." "Like we're gonna steal everything else." "We're playing war games, right?" "Anything else, sir?" "I guess not." "All right, we'll be with the generals at headquarters." "From now on, you're on your own." "So take off and good luck." "Let's move!" "All right, split up into three groups." "These two belong to you?" "Where's General Worden?" "Well, he's gone to check up in the field, sir." "Oh, my God." " Well?" " Be with you in a minute, sir." " Well, how about this one?" " Yes, sir." "I think that's it, sir." "Oh, that's excellent, Haskell, excellent!" "Come on, let's go." " We made it." " Where are the others?" "8:45." "Four of them ought to be coming over that ridge soon." "0845?" "They'd better be coming fast then." "The enemy is gonna lay a live barrage on that ridge at 0850." "Did you know that?" "Yes, sir, I knew that." "But that's the one direction Colonel Breed won't be looking for them." " Are they all set?" " All set, sir." "Batteries one, three and four, open fire and continue at will." "Batteries one, three and four, open fire and continue at will." "Batteries one, three and four- " "Ready!" "Aim!" "Fire!" "Come on!" "Let's go!" "Come on!" "Load!" "Now, come on!" " While they're reloading!" " Let's go!" " Down!" "Can't you hear it?" "!" " Hit it!" "Secure guards!" "All right, let's go!" "Let's go." "Now, what the hell were you guys waiting for?" "What do you m- -?" "Mean, boy?" "Those lovers were trying to kill us back there." "Change." "Change?" "What do you mean, "change"?" "You can't do that!" "It's all right, major." "We're gonna change back later." "They can't stop us now." "Let's go." "Come on." "We're on our way." "We get across this road, take 10." "What are we waiting here for?" "For a jeep, a heavy machine gun and four men." "Like this one?" "Slow down." "Ten - hut!" "Good afternoon, general." "The Mafia has landed!" " Whatever Franko says, Franko does!" " Machine gun." "Let's get it out." "Move it out." " Come on, snap it up." " Franko, out!" "Out?" "What do you mean, "out"?" " Who do you think stole this thing?" " You did, my boy." "Look, you and Pinkley are the only guys that Colonel Breed got a good look at." "This operation is a big enough risk without you coming along." " Out." " Come on, Franko." "Jefferson, you have until 0930 to show up with the ambulance." "You don't make it, I'll figure you got nailed." " Then we'll take a whack at plan B." " Right." "So long, major." "Hold on, Maggott." "Don't want to lose you now." "Attention!" "Attention." "Ten - hut!" " Morning, Breed." " Morning." "Quite a surprise." " Everything under control?" " I think you could say that, sir." "Good, good." "At ease, gentlemen, at ease." "Just thought I'd drop by to see how things are shaping up." "So this is what it looks like, huh?" "Come on, push!" " Posey, remember, you're hurt." " Oh, I'm dying." "Come on, Maggott." "Stand back, now." " What's that?" " Over there!" " What was that?" " Down the road, sir." "See that smoke?" " Sergeant, have somebody take a look." " Yes, sir." " What are they doing around that ridge?" " I don't know, sir." "That should've been cleared half an hour ago." "Now, colonel, it sure doesn't look like it's been cleared, does it?" "Let's go." " Posey, remember, you're injured." " Gilpin, you forgot the ketchup." " Help!" " Come on." "Sir?" "We got a man that's hurt bad." "We'd like to call an ambulance." "Call an ambulance." "Go see what happened." " Yes, sir." "Come on, you two." " Private?" " Come here." " Yes, sir." "What were you doing on that road?" "Our jeep got a flat tire." "We went into a ditch." "I didn't ask you that." "I asked you what you were doing on that road." "Spotting for the Field Artillery, sir." "Let's see that map." "Move Able, Charlie Company to the bridge under smoke screen." "Baker Company bank towards the ridge at 1420 hours." " Private." "Come here." " Yes, sir." "What's your name and outfit?" "Private Matthew Donald, sir." "Serial number 726256." "Battery B, 526th Field Artillery, sir." " Where are your orders?" " Right here, sir." "From Captain Thornhill, sir." "I know most of the men under my command." "But I don't recall seeing you before." "No, sir." "I was transferred in last week, sir." "We're getting congested at point B. Two forces have mined the road." " Where's Peterson?" " Here it comes!" "Clear the way!" "Looks like somebody got hurt." "Watch it there!" "Okay, let's have some help with this soldier." "Count of three, lift." "One, two, lift." "Take it easy now." " Where do we put him, sir?" " Put him there." " You can stay, but keep out of the way." " Yes, sir." "Thank you, sir." "Sorry, but this is the end of the line for you." "But we got a bad accident down here, sir." "That's too bad, because you just became prisoners of war." "It's the enemy, sir!" "All right, come on, let's go." "Let's go, let's go." "They can't do that." "You're wearing Red Force insignia." "That's right." "We're traitors." " Watch my finger." " They use real bullets, you idiot!" "Now, look here, I'm a doctor, major." "And I'm a major, captain." "Yes, sir, but we had a radio message." "There's a man badly hurt down there." "Hurry it up!" "Here's our permission to cross all lines and roadblocks." "Very cute idea, captain." "But it won't work." "Get out." "But it's not a gag, sir." "There's a real casualty there." "All set back here, Jefferson." "Sir, will you explain the rules to him?" "The man may be dying." "I'm just an observer, captain, not an umpire." "I can't interfere or make any rulings." "Come on, doc, I've got a sick tree back here." "Come on, you too." "She's blond, she's engaged." "Come on, sugar!" " Got your bracelet right here." " What's the matter?" "Come on, Little Red Riding Hood." "You're really gonna enjoy this." "How about this patient, huh, doc?" "You're really gonna enjoy it here, doc." "Come on, men." "What about 0930?" "All right, take out the blue bands." "Let's go!" "Change to the blue armband!" "What about the prisoners?" "Sorry, major." "We can't spare any men to look after prisoners." "You coming?" " Is he trying to kill us?" " We must be going 120." "He's gonna squash us in this sardine can." "You want to be there by 0930, don't you?" "Yeah." " - pulling back the map reference, 397492." "That's Blue Force crew." "Call in company orders and hit them when they reach crossroads." "Hello, Able 3." "Don't worry, Bill." "They called for the ambulance." " It's gonna be all right." " Yes, it will." "It's gonna be all right." "I want a strike on Hill 80 between them at 1400 hours." "Move them up to the base of the hill and keep their heads down." "Well, thanks very much, colonel." "It's been very instructive." "I think I'll take a little ride now and get the overall picture." "Yes, sir, thank you." "Move it over." "Give them room." "Forward observation report." "Blue Force tanks approaching airfield at map reference" "Out of the way!" "Out of the way!" "Come on." "Watch out for the ambulance!" "There he is." "The old man." "Come on, observers!" "Major Reisman's compliments, sir." "Hey, major." "What do you think about that one, major?" "I didn't wanna tell you before because I thought it might make you nervous." "After our last little party, the generals were all in favor of sending you back to finish your sentences." " Or get hung." " Or get hung." "Or get hung." "But I made a deal with them." "Knocking off Breed's headquarters is what got you guys off the hook." "You weren't really worried, were you, major?" "No, not much, he wasn't." "But we still have one operation to go." "If you guys foul up on this one, none of us will ever play the violin again." "Because up until now, it's all been a game." "But as of tomorrow night, it's gonna be the real thing." "If you want to know how real, I'll tell you." "It's my guess the lot of you guys won't be coming back." "But there's no sense in squawking about that." "Because the Army never did love you." "Besides, you all volunteered, right?" " Yeah." " Well, that's more than I did." "Sergeant Bowren." "Look, I know we've been over this a thousand times but a lot can go wrong." "We gotta be prepared to improvise." "So let's see what happens if everything goes right." "Ready?" " One." " At the roadblock, we've just begun." " One." " At the roadblock, we've just begun." " Two." " The guards are through." " Three." " The major's men are on a spree." " Four." " Major and Wladislaw through the door." " Five." " Pinkley stays out in the drive." " Six." " The major gives the rope a fix." " Seven." " Wladislaw throws the hook to heaven." " Eight." " Jiminez has got a date." " Nine." " The other guys go up the line." " Ten." " Sawyer and Gilpin are in the pen." " Eleven." " Posey guards points five and seven." " Twelve." " Wladislaw and major go down to delve." "And where's Donald Duck?" "Donald Duck's down at the crossroads with a machine gun." "And he'd better not be asleep, or we'll all be in trouble." " Thirteen." " Franko goes up without being seen." " Fourteen." " Zero hour." " And?" " Mayonnaise cuts the cable Franko cuts the phone." " Fifteen." " Franko goes in where the others have been." " Sixteen." " We all come out like it's Halloween." "And kill every officer in sight." "Ours or theirs?" "Well, let's start off with theirs, huh?" "Let's take it again from the top, without the ad - libs." " All right, one." " Down the roadblock, we've just begun." " Two." " The guards are through." " Three." " The major's men are on a spree." " Fourteen." " Zero hour." " And?" " Mayonnaise cuts the cable Franko cuts the phone." " Fifteen." " Franko goes in where the others have been." " Sixteen." " We all come out like it's Halloween." "Seventeen?" "Seventeen." "D - day." "We get out as best we can and make our way to the coast." "And hope that the entire invasion hasn't been a total disaster." "Otherwise, we got a long swim home." "How much longer, major?" "I'll ask the driver." "You're not worried about jumping at night, are you?" "Getting back." "Ready." "Cargo." "Go." " Where have you been?" "We're late." " We've been looking for Jiminez." " And?" " We found him hung up in an apple tree." " His neck's broken." " You mean he's dead?" "That's exactly what I mean." " This far." " Yeah." "All right, Franko, now you know why we all checked out on that rope, huh?" "Gilpin, number eight." "Gilpin, did you hear me?" " Eight." " Gilpin's got a date?" " Fourteen." " Zero hour." " And?" " Gilpin cuts the cables..." " ..." "Franko cuts the phone." " Let's go." " What a great way to start out, huh?" " Yeah." "So far, so good, major." "Where are those guys?" "Here they come." "Let's go." "Come on, Pinkley, let's go." "It's just like the major said it would be." "Yeah, really some spread, ain't it?" "There they go now." " No blackout?" " Think they're expecting us?" "Hey, the silencer!" "Let's go." ""Radio room. "" " Everything okay?" " Yeah." "I don't know how many Germans we'll kill but we're gonna make an awful lot of noise." "Hey, do you believe in stuff like that?" "Oh, I don't know, can't hurt nothing." "I don't think I believe in stuff like that." " So, how's your German holding up?" " Oh, man, I don't know." "You know those two guys walking down the stairs?" "I couldn't understand a word they said." " Just act mean and grunt, huh?" " Yeah." "Okay, Room 11." "So?" "You go first, I'll carry the bags." "We'll set it up here." " They should've been here by now." " Yeah." "Guard!" "I left the rope." "Hold it." "Idiot." " Do it, Polack!" " Shut up." "Hurry up." "Now." "Now." "Ready for the turkey shoot?" "I wish I could read this." "I think it's dirty." "Hey!" "What are you doing?" "Franko and the others are still down there." "Come on!" "Hey, Maggott." "What the hell are you doing?" "Get out of sight." "Wolfgang?" "Wolfgang?" "Wolfgang?" "Scream." "Scream." "Scream, you slut." "Sprechen, you harlot." "Scream." "Radio room." "Blow it!" "Blow it!" " Hey, what's going on?" " Shut up." "It's Judgment Day, you sinners." "Come out." "Come out, wherever you are." "Come out." "Come out." "Now!" " You didn't think about that, did you?" " They gotta breathe." "You got the grenades?" "Right." "Right, sir." "We got enough here to blow up the world." "What are we gonna do about them?" "We'll feed the French and kill the Germans." " Franko, cover that corner." " What happened?" "They're locked in the bunker." "There's gotta be some air vents." "Take a look." "All right, bring your grenades!" "Over here!" "I'll take them." "Here they are." "Take it down there." "Bowren, get Vladek out here." "Where's that coming from?" "Come on, Vladek, we need you." "Come on, come on." "Franko!" "Get over here and see if you can start one of those trucks!" "Wladislaw, Jefferson." "Get the lids off those other ventilators." "You know what you gotta do, so do it." "Hurry up!" "All right, you Frenchies, beat it." "No, it's all right." "It's all right." "Go on." "Get back up there and cover that bridge!" "Move it!" "Help Bowren!" "There they are!" "Hurry it up." "Posey's got trouble!" "Get one of those trucks started!" "No, no, no." "Leave the pins in." "The pins in, huh?" "Bowren, get some gasoline." "Some gasoline?" "Are you sure?" "You want to ask Pinkley and Vladek?" "Now, get going!" "Yes, sir." "Sawyer, Lever, cover that bridge!" "Do you believe these guys?" "They keep these things locked." "Keep looking!" "The other road!" "The other road!" "Come on, baby." "Where are you, baby?" "Let's go!" "Move over." "Move over!" "Wladislaw get Vladek out of there, huh?" "Another flare!" "Another flare!" "Come on, you..." "Jefferson!" "When I give you the signal set them off one, two, three, four, and get the hell out of there." "We'll wait for you at the bridge." " Right?" " Right." "Let's go!" "Come on, let's go." "Come on, hurry up!" " Are you okay?" " Yeah." "Jefferson, set them off!" "Get that thing out of here or we'll all go up!" "Let's go." "They're not gonna make it." "We'll get a boat and get out the other side." "Come on, let's go." "All right, blow it!" "Remember, Jefferson, 20 seconds!" "Run!" " Faster, faster." " Come on!" "Come on!" "Jefferson faster." "Come on, Jefferson." "Run!" " Go!" " Hurry up!" " Come on, move!" " Come on, come on." " It's gonna blow!" " Come on!" "Come on, Jefferson!" "Jefferson!" "Come on, start." "It won't start!" "It won't start!" "The bastard won't start!" "All right, get in!" "Shift!" "Shift it, shift it!" "We made it!" "We made it." "Those stupid bastards, we made it!" "Come on!" "Keep shooting!" "Major!" "Among the many reports of the raid on the chateau near Rennes perhaps the most objective is the one by General Worden in which he states:" ""We are recommending that those members of the group known as 'The Dirty Dozen ' who survived this operation should have their records amended to indicate that they are being returned to active duty at their former ranks." "And that the next of kin of those prisoners who were killed be advised that they lost their lives in the line of duty. "" "You did a fine job, major." "I'll see you around." "You did a good job, soldier." "Hurry up and get well." "We need men like you out there." "Boy, oh, boy, oh, boy." "Killing generals could get to be a habit with me." "Franko, V.R." "Vladek, M." "Jefferson, R. T." "Pinkley, V.L." "Gilpin, S." "Posey, S." "Sawyer, S.K." "Lever, R." "Bravos, T.R." "Jiminez, J.P." "Maggott, A.J." "They lost their lives in the line of duty."

"Riddle me this:" "When is a door not a door?" "It feels like drowning, doesn't it?" "When the answer is at the edge of your cortex, but you can't seem to grasp it." "You're trying my patience." "The answer?" "When it's ajar." "Here's an easy one." "What runs around a city but never moves?" "No?" "A wall." "What do you want, Nigma?" "I'm in charge, so I'll ask the questions." "Try to keep up, won't you?" "Riddle me this:" "What belongs to you but others use it more than you do?" "Your name." "Huh?" " You've heard that one." " No." "I have Google like the rest of the world." "Why do you talk to me like this, Waller?" "Simple." "I needed to keep you babbling long enough to pinpoint your position." "My... what?" "Hands in the air where we can see them." "Take him out." "Make it hurt." "Riddle me this:" "Why didn't I quit when I was ahead?" "What is it?" "Report." "The Riddler is mine." "Switch to night vision." "Secure the perimeter." "Holy crap, it's Batman." "Unh." "I know you helped him, Nigma." "Tell me where it is." "I'm invoking priority level ultraviolet." "Assemble Task Force X." "We have another suicide mission." "Ugh." "Strewth, I got the hangover, but I don't recall the party." "Aah, crap, not this again." "You too?" "It's like a bloody recurring nightmare." "Looks like we got rookies." "Who are you people?" "And why am I in uniform?" "No bars, no chains." "Time for meat." "You try it, fish-fingers, and I'll show you the meaning of cold-blooded." "You're feisty." "Everybody, shut up." "I've been here before." "Ah!" "I am leaving." "Stop." "Sit down." "I'm Amanda Waller." "I'm here to indoctrinate you convicts into our special forces." "Pass." "I killed to keep degenerates off the streets." "I won't work alongside them." "Fresh air and time off my sentence?" "Feel free to keep calling me up, love." "Task Force X is an off-the-books government strike team... made up of convicts with no hope for release... serving as expendable agents for impossible missions." "Succeed and I'll shave time off your sentences." "If we don't?" "You'll be dead." "Any other stupid questions?" "Yeah, what's in my neck?" "A tracker?" "Yes." "And a powerful nanotech explosive." "Run away, get yourself captured, disobey an order... hell, give me a right answer too slowly, and I'll blow your head clean off." "You lie." "You would not take all of this trouble just to kill us." "Try me." "Anyone else?" "I didn't think so." "What's so dangerous this time that you had to send in the newbies?" "You're going to break into Arkham Asylum." " That's insane." " Don't want much?" " Screw that." " I don't do freaky-deakies." "Yahtzee!" "How do we start?" "Oh." "I like you, cowboy." "You're loco and me likey your loco-motion." " Aah!" " What's the plan?" "A week ago, while in my employ, a lowlife calling himself the Riddler... managed to gain access to my computer system." "He downloaded a file containing the identities and histories... of every current, past and potential member of the suicide squad." "Including ours." "That's right." "He's threatening to release them all on the Internet." "You're going to get it back." "Riddler's got one copy and it's on a thumb drive in his cane... which is currently locked away in the Arkham property room." "In the intensive treatment building, right under the solitary confinement cells." "Good times." "So we get someone inside." "Is it me?" "Can it be me?" "Dibs!" "She's a wild card." "Harley Quinn has an encyclopedic knowledge... of Arkham's layout and its logistics." "She gonna be okay that close to the Joker?" "I'm fine." "We're done." "He's a jerk." "Whatever." "Well, I'm convinced." "You'll be snuck into Gotham." "You'll rendezvous with a power broker who will set you up for the break-in." "This is as off-the-grid as it gets, so let's keep the body count to a minimum." "Deadshot, rubber bullets only." "What about The Bat?" "He has his hands full on another case." "In fact, we work it right, we might be able to take advantage of him." "Waller." "What, Lawton?" "Play fair and I'll shoot straight." "Jerk me around and I'll kill you." "Be a good convict, Lawton." "Don't make me blow you up." "I'm clear." "Gas them." "What them?" "Huh." "I'm getting tired of this trick." "You and me both, cowboy." "Maybe when we get into Gotham, I can show you around." "I know some tight places." " Not interested." " Hmph." "I told you, Harley." "If you're giving it out, heave a chunk my way, eh?" "Ah." "You wish." "Shake your boomer-wang at the shark guy." " Dc it, and I'll bite it off." " Ha, ha." "Come on, Harl." "For old time's sake?" "Are we gonna have a problem this time around?" "I think we might, mate." "No." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "I don't trust vermin." "Honorless, rudderless, undisciplined." "They'll never find your body." "Oh, ninjas are awesome." "You think that means we're there?" "I hate heights!" "Whoo!" "We're not gonna make it." "Waller, please!" "Remember this feeling, convicts." "I hold your lives in my hands." "You crazy bitch." "Open the damn chutes." "Do it." "Now!" "Unh." "Aah!" "Good one." "Good shark." "Gross." "Where's Harley?" "Don't worry, I fell on my head." "Great." "How do we get to the rendezvous unseen?" "A few more miles." "Keep moving then." "Aah!" "This is flipping bonkers." "Sloshing through sewage so a guy dressed like a bat won't spot us?" "You wanna head topside, slick, be my guest." "No, we're practically there." "Yeah, that's what I thought." "Cobblepot." "We're closed." "Private party." "Yeah, we're the private party." "This way." "He's waiting on you." "Your guests have arrived, Mr. Cobblepot." "Right, right." "Come in." "Welcome to the Iceberg Lounge." "I'm just finishing my supper." "Pardon me, Mr. Cobblepot." "Lawton?" "Oh, I never pegged Deadshot for a team player." "Oh, things are tough all over, sir." "That's a good one." "Ha, ha." "This man is the best assassin I've ever seen." "And I only work with the best." "I aim to please, Mr. Cobblepot." "I was told you can get us into Arkham?" "I can indeed." "I've made arrangements to sneak you into the crazy farm." "Follow them to..." "You." "Clown!" "You're not still mad about that truck, are you, Pengy?" "Wah-wah." "It feels like you are." "You cost me money, funny girl." "Her and her looney boyfriend nicked my truck of cigarettes and drove it into the river." "Just for a laugh." "Does it matter that Mr. J and I aren't together anymore?" "Nobody steals from me and walks away." "It's bad business, love." "You're right, you should kill her." "Hell, I'll kill her for you." "Aw, come on." "Except you know what else is bad for business, sir?" "Double-crossing your clients." "And I would hate for folks to say Mr. Cobblepot takes your money and kills your operatives." "Get her out of my sight, Lawton." "There's your files." "Memorize the contents." "You can grab some shuteye in the rooms above." "You deploy tomorrow night under the cover of darkness... and then I never want to see any of you on my turf again." "Now get the hell out of here." "Ever the charmer, ain't you?" "Bite me, Boomer." "Ah." "Oi, Lawton." "Nice shave, mate." "We got off on the wrong foot at the start of this mission." "Hoist a pint with us." "Can't." "It's a school night." "Ehh, suit yourself." "How about a friendly game of darts, then?" "Lucky shot." "Right." "Let's see you do it." "Yeah!" "Come on!" "Sorry, mate." "Looks like that one took a bad bounce." "Oh!" "Let's call it even, mate." "Louise?" "It's Amanda." "I have a special assignment for you." "Something I'd rather keep between the two of us." "I'm listening." "Welcome back." " Did you miss me?" " What do you want?" "I got an itch I thought you could help me scratch, cowboy." "Wow!" "Oh." "Good start." "Ah, what the hell." "Yahtzee!" "Here's my stop." "Wish me luck, cowboy." "There's gotta be one here somewhere." "You know where he put it, don't you?" "Uh-oh." "Where is it, Harley?" "No idea what you're talking about." "Answers." " Now." " Ugh!" "Back off, Bats." "Where is it?" "What's he talking about?" "Who knows what these wankers get worked up about." "I don't know." "I swear." "I'm not firing blind against The Bat." "Waller, what the devil's going on?" "You don't get to call me up and demand answers, Deadshot." "What are they talking about?" "Joker stole a dirty bomb and hid it somewhere in Gotham." "Apparently it's large enough that the radiation would kill half the population." "Batman's torn the city apart trying to find it." "At one point he thought Riddler might know." "The Joker has a dirty bomb?" "That gives me the chills." "Ice puns?" "Really?" "Waller, this is crap." "I don't care, convict, do your job." "Honestly, B-man, I don't know where Mr. J puts half of his stuff." "I just wanted a Chatty Boo-Boo doll before they went on sale tomorrow." "Get her back to Arkham." "Will do, Batman." "Get in there, you nutty broad." "Mwah." "I'm in the middle of lunch, now I gotta process this dizzy dame?" "Crazy, huh?" "Why don't I just toss her in her old cell and come back?" "Yeah, right." "I got, like, half a dozen new forms to fill out before you can even come in." "We've got 10 minutes to plant the device." "Where should I dump her?" "Put it through the x-ray machine." "Heh." "Don't get much deader than that." "This one's cold as ice." "Hey, buddy, I got nothing in the system about accepting a new body." "Yeah." "Ha, ha." "It says, uh, "Not found."" "I came from inside." "Run it again." "No, somethings wrong." "I'm gonna have to get security." "The junction box is up ahead so move your ass." " Harley?" " Huh!" "Is it really you?" "Shit." "Don't screw this up." "Aren't you even going to say hello?" "Heh, heh." "Aw, guys, you gotta see this." "Joker just spotted Harley." "Keep walking." "Tell him to shut up." "Aw, I can tell you're still sore." "At least the bruises cleared up nicely." "What's your hurry, Harl?" "Shut up." "Shut up." "Shut up!" "Damn it." "Let's move." "Maybe she'll kill him." "I hate you, you bastard!" "I'll kill him!" "I'll kill him myself for what he's done to me." "Women." "Am I right, officer?" "Can't live with them, can't kick them out of a moving car." "You know the rules, buddy." "I gotta phone it in." "She's dead." "How much trouble could she be?" "Nothing goes in or out of Arkham without being OK'd." "But give me a sec, I'll try to get ahold of the watch commander." " Run it again." " I've tried twice, sir." "I can't lose this job because your system is down." "Come on, you amateurs." "Tsk, tsk, tsk." "Sorry, hon." "Bulletproof." "Even better." "Pudding." "Why, Harley, if I didn't know better, I'd say you're trying to kill me." "We're finished, you and me." "I got someone new now." "Someone better." "Oh, hell." "This'll have to do." "Never mind." "Just came through." "About time." "Sorry, it's an old system." "No problem." "Let's see what goodies we've got." "Oh, shit!" "How...?" "Oh!" "Aah!" "Me goalies." " That's payback, you dumb-ass." " Unh." "Walk it off, Captain Kangaroo." "Come on, we're out of time." " New guy?" " That's right." "You're not jealous, are you?" "That's him." "I know you." "We worked together once." "No, wait, don't tell me, don't tell me." "Hmm..." "Deadhead, hmm?" "Buckshot?" "Ha, ha!" "Hmph." "Aah!" "I got her." "You can have her." "Bet you buy your shirts second-hand too." "Ha!" "Sir, we've got an explosion on Level E." "He's still secure, sir." "Is that room service?" "Tell them I never got my calzone." "Good." "I need every available security down in the kitchen, stat." "We're on yellow alert." " You're late." " Ran into her ex." "Grab hold." "Put your back into it." "Hey." "Nobody's supposed to be down there." "We just snuck down here for a little party." "What kind of party?" "Crap, you're Harley Quinn!" "Don't move, you crazy bit..." "I hate Italian food." "Has that kitchen fire been contained?" "Yes, sir." " Lawton." " What?" "GPS has you in the main security hub." "What's going on?" "We own it, that's what." "Now we grab the cane." "Don't get too cocky, Lawton." "You're at the point of no return." "You best keep that in mind." "That gas explosion put the whole bloody asylum on yellow alert." "If the security cameras make us, we're toast." "So shut down all the security cams." "That's a surefire way to alert The Bat." "What then?" "Let him watch us run around like idiots?" "Play yesterday's footage." "Aw." "Shark Week had his first thought." "Shut it, Boomer." "Say it again." "Play yesterday's footage at the same time." "I can do that." "And we can operate without eyes on us." " You mean Batman's or Waller's?" " Both." "The intensive treatment building is there, just across the yard." "Let's move." "Low profile." "Frost." "Move your ass." "Top priority are those towers." "I can scale them." "No time." "You do two, I'll do two." "Fine." "On my mark." "Now." " You missed." " Wait for it." "Patrol, I need a sweep of the yard." "Ugh!" "Boom!" "In your face." "He got to his walkie." "I'd score that a miss." "You two-bit C-lister." "That's it!" "U.S.A!" "U.S.A!" "Boys, we got company." " Shark, no." " Finally, some action." "So much for low profile." "Status report." "I've got you in the exercise yard, but you don't show up on the cameras." "Must be something wrong with the system." "Damn it." "We're a little busy right now." "I'll call you back." "Don't yank me around, convict." "Get the cane." "Get out." "Yahtzee." "Victor Zsasz, we got you surrounded." "Please." "Please don't hurt me." "Let the girl go before it gets ugly." "The Zombie's mine to liberate." "I have righteous work to do." "I'm not in the mood tonight, Zsasz." "You seem troubled tonight, sir." "It's Harley, Alfred." "She was acting odd." "Odder than usual, you mean?" "Like she was happy to get caught." "Maybe she missed her, uh, pudding." "Maybe." "More likely it's linked to the Joker's bomb." "Arkham had a yellow alert this evening." "Everything looks to be in place." "Hmm." "That's Moshell." "He doesn't work Fridays." "Neither does Ferrick." "That's the Thursday crew." "This isn't live." "They're broadcasting old footage." "Somethings wrong at Arkham." "No, no." "Enough, Shark!" "Put him down!" "Ouch!" "Do I have your attention now?" "Don't break cover in the middle of an operation unless I say so." "Don't ever do that to me." "Or what?" "You'll chew my head off?" "Do it." "I'm begging you." "You think any of you have a shot of getting out alive without me?" "That's what I thought." "We're just lucky this was contained." "Start following orders, all of you." "Why don't you just calm down, pudding?" "Don't call me pudding!" "Property room's here." " Locked." " Not for long." "Now that's just pathetic." "The warden uses his birthday backwards for practically all of his passwords." " How do you know that?" " I used to work here." "Didn't I mention that?" "Come on." "As what?" "As a psychiatrist, silly." "And pal, anyone who throws boomerangs has some real issues letting go." "Et voilà." "Where do we even begin?" "Everyone take a section." "Just start looking." "Bloody hell." "My acid playing cards." "I knew I left them here." "Here's that Batman costume Mr. J used for the train heist." "Aw." "I've been looking all over for this." "Here's where it went." "Bingo." "Firefly." "Killer Moth." "Maxie Zeus." "Never heard of any of these tools." "Mr. Freeze's gun." "Score." "Ugh." "Thanks." "It's Batman." "Huh?" "No way." "The spoils of war." "Black Spider just kicked The Bat's ass?" "Mate, I'm a little choked up." "Got the thumb drive." "What?" "What the hell?" "We've been played." "Where's Frosty?" "Frost?" "Damn it." "Frost!" "Easy." "I knew Waller would send someone." "I'm too clever for her to let me live." "Nothing gets past you, genius." "I'll make this fast." "Do you even know why you're assassinating me?" "The Wall says you screwed her and to make an example out of you." "And that satiated your curiosity?" "I don't ask questions." "I don't believe that." "The human mind always has questions." "My only question is why Waller didn't just blow your head off with your nano bomb." "It's the same reason she needs me dead." "Because I know how to diffuse them." "Wait, what?" "How do you know she's with the Riddler?" "She was eyeballing him at the monitor room." "So she's got herself a new guy." "After everything I've done for her." "Ooh, we'll see about that." "I'll make five more just like her." "I'll take her skin and put someone else in it." "Oh, that perfect creamy skin." "Pull yourself together, man!" "She mocked you right to your face!" "Even dared to call you... pudding." "Oh, that darling girl!" "She might even deserve me." "Okay, babies, let's cook." "Winner, winner, chicken dinner." "Ha-ha-ha." "Oh, Harley, I take back half the horrible things I've done to you." "They're gone!" "Yeah, we can see that, Harley, but where?" "It's Waller." " I'm here." " What are you trying to pull, Deadshot?" " You're not checking in." " We had a bout with The Bat." "But we're past it." "I got your cane, Waller." "We're just looking for an exit." "So you're all together?" "Of course." "Why wouldn't we be?" "Then why has the Special Crimes unit been called in to protect the medical center?" "Maybe Two-Face got a pair of hemorrhoids." "We're out of here." "Please don't explode." "Please don't explode." "Please don't explode." "Shut up." "Where's that medical center?" "We're still on yellow alert." "You hear something?" "Let me check." "Hey, remember that time when Mad Hatter..." "Smitty?" " Smitty?" " Boo." "Aah!" "Smitty!" "Put your hands in the air!" " Aah!" " And boom." "I'm just going to slip into something more comfortable." "So no peeking." "This is the Special Crimes unit." "Surrender and return to your cells." "Light them up!" "That worked well." "Then like the hanged man, we are at the end of our rope." "Wow, I hate you." "Unh!" "You can thank us later, losers." " You all right?" " Somewhat." "Glad you made it." "This better be good." "He knows how to turn off the bombs." "Look familiar?" "I can do it, but you've got to get me into the medical center." "We got maybe five minutes before Waller figures out what's what." "We get to that room or we're dead." "Should've brought a tank." "We have one." "No heights." " You're joking." " I said, no heights!" "I'll guide you." "Trust me." "I'm crazy, but that's just nuts!" "Step on it." "Go to the right." "Let's move." "Did we win?" "Let's see now." "We'll need this on." "This for back-up." "Grab a chair." "Whee!" "How do you diffuse this bomb, exactly?" "It's the electroshock." "It's the what now?" "I'm gonna run 1000 volts through your heads and fry your bombs." "Oh." "Good." "Put the chairs in a circle here around Old Sparky." "Oh, I love electroshock!" "It's a shiatsu massage for your brain." "Lose those." "I'll keep a lookout." "More cops." "Choppers too." "This'll work?" "Or give you a grand mal seizure." "I'm clamping you to the chairs because you're going to wiggle." "I don't trust this fruit loop." "Hmm." "A thousand volts, five bodies... multiply by five, allowing for absorption, three-second pulses..." "You know what you're doing, right?" "Damn it." "Don't stop working." "Yeah, Waller?" "I am getting reports there's a break-in at Arkham." " You're on red alert." " News to me." "What part of "off the books" do you not understand?" "Are you in the medical center?" "We hit a snag." "Batman again?" "Spider needed medical attention." "Spider?" "But he's..." "No excuses, Lawton!" "You get that?" "Mm..." "Uh-huh." "No more crap!" "No more time!" "No more shenanigans!" "Uh-huh." "Those scumbags are trying to screw me." "I never need to do that again." "Are you kidding?" "I feel great!" "Nobody screws the Wall!" " Uh, guys?" " Do it again." "I don't know." "Maybe his skin is too thick?" "Best gun ever." "Why'd his head explode?" "Because the bomb in his neck didn't diffuse, you asshole." "So what's his excuse?" "Oh, that's rich." "Huh?" "Denzel!" "What have they done to you?" "Haven't you solved it yet?" "The Black Spider is Batman." "I know that sound." "Someone's flossing their brain." " Unh." " Talk!" "Why are you here?" "Amanda Waller wanted the Riddler dead." "Waller?" "What's she got...?" "I'm here, bitches!" "And I brought favors for everybody!" "Whoop!" "Yahtzee!" "I think this was yours, Deadhead." "Finders, keepers." "Pudding!" "You're free." "Don't you pudding me." "I go away and suddenly you've got new friends." "Even picked a new guy." "You got it all wrong, baby." "I was using them to help you escape." "Who else would I break into Arkham for?" "Nobody, that's who." "It'll be just like old times." "Oh." "Hmm." "You." "New guy." "I don't like people touching my stuff." " Go ahead." "You're out of bullets." " I am not." "You are." "You're gonna pull the trigger, and when nothing happens..." "I'm gonna punch you in the throat and bash your brains out." "Three." "Two." " One." " Hold on." "Stop counting for a second." "I know there are bullets." "See?" "Mate, you just out-crazied the Joker." "This place is crawling with cops." " I'm gonna kill Waller." " Can we get out of here first?" "Mallet." "It's right here, Mr. J." "I was keeping it safe for you the whole..." "It's time for a very big bang." "Why the hell are we running?" "We're sitting ducks here." "And whose fault is that, do you suppose, leader?" "I've been carrying this team all night, you douche bag." " Uh, fellas?" " Really?" " Is that what you'd call it, eh?" " Guys." " Guys, listen." " That's what I'd call it..." " you one-gimmick hack." " Great, let's split up." " I'm better off on my own." " Guys." "Batman's here." "Joker." "Where did he go?" "Don't owe you squat, Bats." "Lawton?" "We can settle our business later." "Now, where's the Joker?" "He and Harley took their mallet and disappeared." "That's where he's hidden the bomb." "Sibilance, testing." "Sibilance." "I know you can see me, Bats." "Hope you brought protection because I'm about to give Gotham... a terminal case of tainted love... and it's really gonna burn." "And just in case you were thinking of stopping me..." "I figured I'd invite some friends to my big blow-out." "Stop." "Please?" "I need to find Joker and stop that bomb." "Good luck with that, mate." "Gotta get out of here." "Yeah, but what'll get us far enough to escape that blast?" "Well, isn't that convenient?" "Out of my way, loser." "Mm." "Mm." "Oh, no, you don't, Lawton." "That's my ride." "Aah!" "Only one of us is getting out of here and it ain't you." "I'll get you for this, Lawton!" "Get those gates closed." "Where's our backup?" "Now that's what I call backup." "We've got it under control, Batman." "You can take..." "And I'm talking to myself." "Again." "Going my way, handsome?" "Cute kid." "Hope she doesn't take being an orphan too hard." "Holy crap!" "You know she's gonna kill us, right?" "Where's the fricking gas pedal?" "Uh-oh." "Ha!" "Sure." "He smacks me around sometimes... but you're the one who's always hurting me." "Now I'm gonna hurt you." "Stop me if you've heard this one." "Listen to me." "Harley, the bomb." "For someone who's not Batman... you've been a real pain in my ass." "Ha-ha-ha." "Deuces, new guy." " Have a seat, pudding." " Aah!" "Bang!" "Waller." "You knew when you sent your little suicide squad into Arkham, they'd go off script." "Oh, it's just you." "When your bombs didn't ice them, you figured the S.C.U. would." "All that, just so you could kill the Riddler." "Let's just say I break a lot of eggs to make an omelet." "And because you're a messy cook, the Riddler was able to escape." "I got careless." " My men will get Nigma next time." " There is no next time." "No?" "We're the U.S. government." "Who's going to blow the whistle on us?" "The convicts?" "Who'd believe them?" "You?" "Heh." "You going to start a blog and expose us?" "I don't think so." "That's checkmate, Batman." "I'm warning you." "Enough." "Don't they need you back in your squalid little city?" "They never did find the Joker's body, did they?" "Punk." "Motherfu..." "Bang."

"KARA:" "When I was a child, my planet Krypton was dying." "I was sent to Earth to protect my cousin." "But my pod got knocked off-course and by the time I got here, my cousin had already grown up and become Superman." "And so I hid my powers until recently when an accident forced me to reveal myself to the world." "To most people I'm an assistant at Catco Worldwide Media." "But in secret, I work with my adoptive sister for the DEO to protect my city from alien life and anyone else that means to cause it harm." "I am Supergirl." "CAT:" "Previously on "Supergirl"..." "Hank didn't kill Astra." "I did." "Supergirl, she apprehended my attacker and saving who knows how many lives." "Assistant number one, meet assistant number two." "I'm two?" "Most people will wanna be there for you." "Lucy caught me lying." "I need to be able to tell her that you are Supergirl." "This is over, James." "You love her." "And for what it's worth, she feels the same." "They say Supergirl's not the only alien inside DEO." "You are the greatest asset that we have." "I can't be in the DEO if I am an alien." "She's the founder and CEO of a media empire who was recently named number one on the National City Tribune's annual Power List." "Please welcome our next guest, Cat Grant!" "(APPLAUSE)" "Wow, you look so much younger than I thought you would!" " Mmm." "So do you." " (AUDIENCE CHEERING)" "Cat, how does it feel to be the most powerful woman in National City?" "Well, Sara, first of all, that's a total misnomer." "Nobody is calling me the most powerful woman in National City." "I believe they are calling me the most powerful person." "Having a platform like mine is only worthwhile if I can use it to bring attention to the people who are really making a difference." "Well, Cat, that brings us to our next question." "Supergirl." "You've been associated with her since she first emerged on the National City scene." "And you've been a critic, you've been a cheerleader and some say that you are a friend." "Well, I would like to think so." " What is she like?" " Yeah." "Supergirl is everything you think she is." "She's strong, she's brave." "But the most remarkable thing about Supergirl is that she is the kindest person I have ever known." "MEAN GIRL:" "So, you think you're Supergirl?" "If I shoved you, could you fly?" "(ALL LAUGHING)" "You look so stupid." " No, I don't." " Everybody thinks so." "That's why you don't have any friends." "I wouldn't say that." "I actually think you look pretty awesome." "Thanks." " Laura." " You know Supergirl?" "Yeah." "I'm friends with all the nice girls." "See you later." "She is an idea, she's inspiring us to be our best selves." "Now, we can learn a lot from her." "You can learn a lot from her." "I have learned a lot from her." " And I'm still learning." " (APPLAUSE ON TV)" " Enraptured, are we?" " Oh, Ms. Grant." "I was really fabulous." "God knows I hate a generic sports metaphor, but that interview was a touchdown." "A home run." "Whatever you call it when you do something good in hockey." "Where is my computer droid?" "Winn?" "He's, um..." "I will find him." "I really need to rethink this necklace." "Winn?" "Winn!" "(THUDDING)" "Winn, are you in... (THUDDING CONTINUES)" "(GASPING)" "No!" "No!" "No, no, no, no, no!" "(GRUNTING)" "Guess that's my exit." "(SIGHING)" "You didn't just now use the..." " Oh, God you did." "You did." " (GROANING)" "I'm never using supplies from that closet ever again without surgical gloves." "Okay, okay." "Look, I'm, I'm..." "I'm sorry, I did not mean for any of this to happen." "It's just kind of happening." "(CHUCKLING) And, like, I know it seems wrong," "I mean, it definitely, it feels wrong, except for, like, when it's happening and then it's like..." "Okay, okay." "You don't have to explain anything, Winn." "You're both two consenting adults." "You should do what makes you happy." "CAT:" "Ker-rah!" "Ker-rah!" "If I have to say your name a third time, you will have to find another job." "Duty calls." "You..." "You missed a button." "Um, Ms. Grant just told me..." "Lucy quit." "You told her I was Supergirl and she left the city?" "No, I didn't tell her." " You didn't?" " No." "She broke up with me before I had a chance to, so..." "But, why?" "Because you stood her up when we went to the Fortress of Solitude." " No, no..." "Yeah, I know you did." " I tried to talk to her." "Oh, no, did I say something wrong?" "No, no, Kara." "(STAMMERING) It wasn't that..." "It wasn't..." "It was just something between us." "Not you and I. Between me and Lucy." "So, it didn't have anything to do with you." "Or Supergirl." "It had nothing to do with you or Supergirl." "It's just obvious how much she loves you and..." "I think, she knows" " how much you love her..." " Maybe I didn't." "What?" "Maybe I didn't love her as much as I should have." "Maybe I didn't love her as much as I thought I did." "(CELL PHONE CHIMES)" "It's Alex." " ALEX:" "She broke up with him?" " Kaput." "Ugh, I always knew that relationship was going to go busto." "I feel guilty." "Did he say were the reason?" "He said the opposite." "Well, then guilt isn't what you should be feeling." "Try hope." "I don't want to be the rebound girl, Alex." "(SIGHING) He likes you, you like him, okay?" "Rebound relationships, they can work." "Name one." "(EXHALING) Kim and Kanye." "I'm embarrassed you even know that." "Look, okay, stop." "You need to embrace what you're feeling." "And be the "let-him-know-girl" before another Lucy Lane swoops in and tells him first." "Okay." "Senator Crane, it's good to see you again." "Good to see you." "The Senator came by to tell us that she's been working with the Budget Committee to get the DEO more money, more resources to fight Non." " A lot more." " ALEX:" "That's great." "We can use it." "I also came by because I wanted to personally thank Director Henshaw for the amazing work he's been doing to keep our nation, this planet, safe." "Well, it's not just me, it's my team." "Well, it starts at the top." "This agency deals with the unknown and is often forced to make up the rules as it goes." "You don't have the same oversight as other branches of the military." "It's important to me that there's someone I know and trust making sure justice is meted out in a way that's consistent with our ideals." "And I'm glad that person is you." "(SOFTLY) Wow." "Ma'am, there's fire downtown." "A fireman's trapped on the roof." "Punch it up." "Supergirl, can you get there in time?" "Yeah, she can." "(PEOPLE SCREAMING)" "(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)" " MAN:" "Get a hand?" " Lift this!" "On three, one, two, three!" "(MAN SCREAMING)" "Supergirl, over here!" " My men have the fire!" " Okay."

"Yeah, we all were." "Ker-rah, look at you dressed like an adult." "That's promising." "Mmm." "So, I demanded a list of replacements for Lucy Lane, like, yesterday." " Ms. Grant..." " Ah, here you are." "I already checked all their references and ranked them according to who you'll find the least annoying." "Oh, any Republicans?" " Two reformed." " CAT:" "Excellent." "Oh, and look at that." "A reward." "Someone gifted me tickets for Club Apocalypse for Friday night to see a Scandinavian DJ whose name I won't even try to pronounce." "Thank you." "I'll put them to good use." "Do you even know how to dance?" "Don't be jealous." "Or do, I don't really care." "Two armored vehicles have been attacked in the last six hours." "Both carrying hundreds of thousands worth in gold." "Now, these two have goons managed to take out a number of highly trained and heavily armed security personnel." " Alien weapons?" " Almost." "An alien is their weapon." "A K'hund." "Stronger than your average Fort Rozz escapee." "Now, we've obtained intel on their next heist, but we have to move fast." "Lucky for us, we have an alien of our own." "Hmm?" "I'm sorry, Supergirl, am I boring you?" "Only boring people get bored." "Sorry." "I thought you were talking to some other alien agent at the DEO." "All right." "Let's move, let's move." "Do I need to brief you again or have you got all that?" "Kick alien ass." "They're pros." "Took out seven guys like that." "MAN:" "I heard Frank's in a coma." "That's it." "I'm asking for a raise." "We're good to go."

"Director Henshaw, Senator Crane is in your office." "She said you were going to update her on what happened with the K'hund." "Well, that sounds fun." "Tell her I'll be there in a minute." "Can I speak with you here for a second?" "I know you just started working here again, but to be clear, our job here at the DEO is to catch the aliens, not let them escape." "How 'bout you get off my back for once, Hank?" "Supergirl." "I thought we were in a good place here." "We're in a good place, when I do what I'm told." "When I don't, you come down on me." "I am tired of it!" "You want to catch the K'hund, go try it yourself!" "You're just as strong as me, if you wanted to be." "You know how dangerous that is for him." "And it's not dangerous for me too?" "Every Kryptonian on this planet wants to kill me expect my cousin." "I have to live with that." "And he could, too!" "What are you so afraid of?" "You talk about honoring your people, and yet you refuse to be one of them." "I got to go." "I have work in the morning." "Another job that underappreciates me." "What?" "How..." "That's Cat's elevator." "It is absolutely ridiculous for her to have her own personal elevator," " plus horrible for the environment." " CAT:" "Ker-rah!" "You are literally impervious to bullets and I'm worried for your safety right now." "Okay?" "What the hell do you think you're doing?" "Your latte, Ms. Grant." "Oh." "Walking from the main elevator takes an extra 90 seconds, which means your latte's 90 seconds colder." "Brazen." "That's a new color on you." "I don't mind it." "Yet." "What do you want?" "I've got a scoop for you." "Can we talk?" "In private?" "Allez." "CAT:" "What am I looking at?" "It's Supergirl letting the bad guy go." "Put this under your hat until we figure out what's going on." "What's going on is that Supergirl isn't the hero she claims to be." "CAT:" "There must be an explanation." " Maybe it's another Bizarro." " Who cares?" "Supergirl turning bad, and we're the first to report it." "We could change the conversation, we could dominate the headlines, we could..." "Don't use media jargon that you don't understand." " But..." " That'll be all." "I see you had better luck than Supergirl." "I've dealt with worse." "Do not inflate your own worth, human." "Supergirl didn't even try to apprehend me." "What are you talking about?" "She said you fought and you got away." "She's a liar." "She said she didn't want to waste her time with me." "Get him out of my face!" "(GRUNTING)" "Do you believe him?" "I'm almost done with this e-mail." "This is the scoop of your life." "Hi, Siobhan!" "What do you want?" "Stalker." "Messenger downstairs wants you to sign for Ms. Grant's flowers." "Okay, you do it." "Well, I would, but Ms. Grant needs me to proof a column for her ASAP." "(SIGHING)" "I'm sure one day she'll give you more editorial responsibilities too." "Fine." "CAT:" "I know you see yourself as a plucky heroine who broke a story as big as Watergate and then gave it to my biggest competitor, and I know you think that once the Daily Planet runs the story that you will have a fancy job there," "and I know that you believe in the end that I will admire your gumption for scooping me and I will beg you to come back." " Will you?" " No." "I admire loyalty, integrity and employees that I can trust." "Not backstabbing, opportunistic little..." "Imps." "Clean out your desk." "I'm sorry, was I using my inside voice?" "You are fired!" "Now, before you go skipping all the way back to Metropolis," "I will save you the bus fare." "I had a much too long conversation with Perry White." "And there is no job waiting for you there." "Mmm." "Now, be gone." "Hey, are you okay?" "Well, I guess that's your exit." "(CLICKING TONGUE)" "Well, that was awkward." "But not surprising, though."

(CHUCKLING)" "You okay?" "I've never been better." "Maybe we should, um..." "Let's go have a drink with Winn real quick." "No, no." "Why would I get a drink when I'm finally getting what I want?" "What I want..." "Is what the poor man's Lois Lane was too idiotic to keep." "What are you doing?" "Yo, it's not you, come on!" " (GIGGLING)" " Come on, man!" " Don't walk away from me." " (GRUNTING)" "You need to get her out of your head, James." "Lucy was a clingy, insecure daddy's girl, who was afraid and jealous of your..." " Kara, stop." " I'm done pretending." "What are you doing?" "Stop it." "(GIGGLING)" " (CELL PHONE CHIMING)" " It's my phone." "JAMES:" "It's Cat." "Oh, why don't you just tell her to get back in her litter box and leave us alone?" "(SCOFFING)" " Ms. Grant." " I need to talk to Supergirl." "Press your silly watch or whatever it is and send her here now." "Ms. Grant wants to see..." "Supergirl." "Where did she go?" "What happened?" "Something's wrong with Kara." "Mmm." "What do you want?" "Well, I would like to know if Ashton Kutcher and his camera crew are hiding underneath your cape." "Supergirl would never release an evil alien caught in the act of armed robbery." "So, I assume I'm being Punk'd." "I wouldn't assume anything from now on, Cat." "Did you just call me Cat?" "You branded me in the media as a Girl Scout." ""Supergirl is brave, kind and strong."" "Mmm-hmm?" "Isn't that kind of a stock characterization?" "Very two-dimensional." "Everyone knows real people have a dark side." "Yes, but you don't get to be a real person." "You're a superhero." "You get to represent all the goodness in the world." "Yeah, well, I'm sick of it." "And you know what else I'm sick of?" "Enabling all of you in your victimhood." ""Oh, well, my building's burning down, la-di-dah." ""Supergirl will just swoop in and save the day."" "Well, get used to the flames, people, 'cause I quit." "Supergirl..." "I fear that you're having some sort of mental breakdown." "Don't worry, it happens to the best of us, and I'm happy to take you to Dr. Shuman for emergency Lexapro, that is, if your alien brain will respond to the ssris." "But in the meantime, I would lay low." "This haughty attitude is highly unsuitable." "Well, I learned it from the best." "Cat Grant." "(CHUCKLING)" "You're the most arrogant, self-serving, mean-spirited person I know." "Now, you listen to me." "I made you." "And you are not going to let me down." "Or what?" " Or what?" " Wait, I forgot." "You're the most powerful person in National City." "At least that's what they say on TV." "You want to see what powerful really looks like?" "Watch." "(GRUNTING)" "(SCREAMING)" "(GROANING)" "True power, Cat, is deciding who will live and who will die." "And don't ever call me again." "Director Henshaw, need to talk to you please." "Hey, something bad has happened to Kara." "We know." "She was acting strange." "Distracted." "We thought it was personal at first, but then she let an alien fugitive escape." "Pull up the missions Supergirl has run in the last 48 hours." " ALEX:" "The fire." " Run a thermodynamic scan." "Look at the radiation signature." "That's Kryptonite." "Not exactly." "It's synthetic." "It's manmade." "Well, it's close to the real thing, but whoever made it, didn't get it quite right." "Meaning what?" "It's not damaging her on a cellular level." "But it could explain the erratic behavior." "Who the hell would make Kryptonite?" "Yeah, that's my bad." "Come on." "This isn't necessary." "I came here to help." "I didn't even know Kryptonite was a thing." "Until we showed you." "And we took down Bizarro." "I went through all that trouble to create her, when all this time, right in front of me, was a substance whose sole molecular purpose was to kill Kryptonians." "Sort of ironic." " You're outta your mind." " I'm only practical." "Non and his army will return." "Soon." "So, I took matters into my own hands." "You've recreated Kryptonite." "Tried to." "I just didn't get it right." "The satellite on that rooftop was yours." "You set a trap for Non." "The fire, that was an accident." "I never meant to endanger any firefighters, any civilians." "Not even Supergirl." "So, you figured if you booby-trapped a satellite, then your Kryptonite would kill Non just in case you went to go check on it?" "It didn't work exactly as planned." "It never does with you!" "I didn't know Supergirl would show up or that be she's affected by the synthetic K in such a surprising..." "You're right." "You just thought it would kill her." "When I realized Supergirl had been exposed," "I started tracking her to see what the Red Kryptonite would do to her." "I saw her let the alien escape." "I didn't know what to think." "And then tonight, she threw Cat Grant off her building." "She killed Ms. Grant?" "No." "Cat has nine lives." "She's fine." "But Supergirl isn't." "I'm sorry, Alex." "I came in to make this right." "I created Red Kryptonite." "Maybe I can create an antidote." "(SIGHING)" "You better hope so, for National City's sake." "Because you just turned Supergirl into the monster you always feared she'd be." "Ms. Grant, what's going on?" "(SIGHING)" "Supergirl has completely gone off the rails." "And I have to publicly denounce her as a villain." "Ms. Grant, Supergirl's not a..." " Not a villain." " That doesn't change anything." "People are in danger and the public needs to be warned." "Ms. Grant, look." "I am sure that Supergirl is gonna be fine soon." "But if you denounce her, it's not gonna matter." "She'll have lost the city's trust." "She threw me off of a balcony." "I fell 40 stories." "I was a few feet away from splattering onto the pavement when she flew down and caught me on a whim." "Now, I appreciate that you are trying to cure her, but at this moment, can you guarantee me that the public is safe?" "Can you guarantee that any of us are safe?" "No." "Citizens of National City, this is Cat Grant, live from Catco Plaza." "As you all know, I have been" "Supergirl's most outspoken champion." "So, you can imagine how difficult it is for me to tell you that I and Catco can no longer stand behind Supergirl." "I made you trust her." "I gave you my word that she was safe, a friend." "I was wrong." "Supergirl has changed." "She is unstable and extremely dangerous." "She threw me off of a building last night and threatened my life and..." "Who knows what else she is capable of?" "It's not easy being let down by our idols." "Having someone who embodies our heroic ideals helps us believe that we can be heroes, too." "Sometimes heroes fall." "So, please, for your own safety," "stay away from Supergirl." "Okay, that's enough." "Turn it off." "Play it on a loop." "Everyone needs to know." "(CLEARING THROAT)" "Kara?" "Hello, sister." "Look, I picked out my own outfit without any fashion advice from you." "All these years you've pushed those dowdy sweaters and skirts on me!" "Trying to cloak my beauty so I don't outshine yours." "Kara!" "(LAUGHING MANICALLY)" "I needed a wardrobe overhaul." "(LAUGHING MANICALLY)" "Kara, this isn't you." "I'm more me than I've ever been." "Please, listen." "You were exposed to Red Kryptonite." "It's altered your brain." "You're not seeing clearly." "Oh, I see clearly!" "I see how you've always been jealous of me!" "You didn't want me to come out as Supergirl because you didn't want me to own my powers." "I can fly." "I can catch bullets with my bare hands." "And that makes you feel worthless." "No." "No, I'm proud of you." "And when you couldn't stop me being Supergirl, you got me to work for you." "To retain some control." "(SCOFFING)" "Those days are so over." "I am finally free of you, and I'm ready to soar." "Look at that city." "They worship me." "And those who don't, will." "ALEX:" "Kara, just listen to yourself." "Go, cut the big sister act, Alex." "We have never been sisters." "We don't share blood." "And you know what the sad truth is?" "Without me, you have no life." "And that kills you." "Deep down, you hate me." "And that's why you killed my aunt." "Aww, did I make you cry?" "(SNIFFLING)" "You know what they say, the truth hurts." "(CRYING)" "(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)" " Is it ready, yet?" " Almost." "Alex." "How is Kara?" "She's gone, Hank..." "I don't even know who she is anymore." "I don't know what she's capable of." "SENATOR CRANE:" "You need to take her down." "I know this is personal for both of you." "But you need to use everything the DEO has and protect this city from Supergirl." "I'm not going to kill her." "Yes, Supergirl saved my life." "That's the last thing I want." "But the DEO's job is to protect this world from alien threats." "What do you call Supergirl right now?" "Vasquez, assemble the troops." "We're moving out." "Supergirl's the target." "If anything can reverse the red Kryptonite effect on your sister, this should do it." "It better." "Good luck." "I mean that."

"The guys are in range." "Gets it back to Fedorov." "Can Fedorov get a break?" "He shoots..." "He scores!" "Hey!" "No hockey in the house." "Oh, guys." "Do you remember this morning when you said to me:" ""We love you and we'll have the house cleaned up by the time you get home"?" "No." "Will you get your jackets and your backpacks off the table?" "Which one of you pigs left this mess?" "The pig with the tool belt." "Tell your dad to clear all that off and set the table." " Dinner is in those bags right there." " Oh, what'd you get?" "Chicken." "Don't touch it until dinnertime tonight." "Gosh, I live with a bunch of animals - disgusting, filthy little animals." "Hey, Dad, be real careful." "Mom just got home and she's in a bad mood." "Great." "She walks in the door and you tick her off?" "Can't you help her out, huh?" "Hey, she's not mad at us." "She's mad at you for leaving the mess on the counter." "What am I?" "A janitor?" " (Jill) Tim!" " Uh... I'm cleaning up right now, honey." "(Jill) Tim, I'm way behind." "I've got to study tonight." "Hey, don't you worry about a thing, honey." "I'll keep the boys out of your hair." "(Jill) Oh, I brought dinner." "Will you set it out for me?" "I sure will." "Where'd you set it out?" "(Jill) lt's on the counter by the trash compactor." "Not anymore." "I've never studied for anything so hard in my life." "But it will be worth it." "If I do well, I should get into any graduate school around here, maybe even U of M." "Great." "Jill, why do you leave your wedding ring here by the sink?" "I took it off when I was washing the pots and pans." "This is not a good place to leave it." "It could go down the drain. I'd never find it." " Always leave it over here where it's safe." " (clattering)" "Oh, no." " (Jill) What did you do?" " Nothing." " What was that noise?" " l don't know, but it had a familiar ring to it." " Did you drop my ring down the drain?" " No, I did not." "I dropped it down the furnace vent." "Oh, no." "I want my wedding ring back." "OK, relax. I'll get some tools." "I'll get it out of there." "I'll find those earrings I dropped down there that I just realized I didn't tell you about." "Tim, what is going on with you?" "First you flatten the dinner, you forget to empty the dishwasher, you didn't separate the laundry like I asked you to." " l was driving Mark to his computer class." " No, no, no." "There's something else." "I've been sensing some hostility from you." "No more than usual." "I thought that we had an open relationship, that we could talk about anything." " Talk to me." " l don't want to." "Something is bothering you and you're avoiding it." "We shouldn't have any unresolved issues." "If you must know, since you've been doing this test here, I've been doing a lot of extra work, and I'm beginning to feel taken for granted." " Taken for granted?" " l know you're not doing it on purpose, but you've been pretty insensitive." "Pretty insensitive?" "You know, a little thank you would go a long way." "A little thank you?" "You know, it really scares me when you repeat everything I say." "I cannot believe that you have the gall to say that I am taking you for granted." "Here it goes." "For the last 1 5 years I've been doing all the thankless jobs - laundry, cooking, cleaning, and in my spare time I've managed to have three children." "You never once thanked me." "The one time that I come to you asking you to carry your weight around here, all I get from you is resentment." "The truth is you were happier when I was stuck in the kitchen barefoot and pregnant." "I should just squat down here right now and shoot out another kid." "Just don't do it near the furnace vent." "Our objective is to put our two pieces of wood together so it has a secure and perfect union." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Right." "That's right." "In this case..." "Like there's such a thing as a perfect union." "Come on." "What century are you living in?" "I want to get something off my chest." " Tim." " Leave me alone." "Hey, guys, I'm cheesed." "Has this ever happened to you?" "You're minding your own business, picking your meal out of the trash compactor, when out of the henhouse, the big old hen starts clucking:" "(high-pitched voice) "We got some unresolved issues."" "Don't ever fall for this "they want to talk,"" "they want you to say something to get yourself in trouble." " l hear you." " You know what I'm talking about?" " We're constantly in trouble." " No matter what we say, we're in trouble." "Two bachelors in trouble." "Hm." "Should we get 'em down here and see if we can help them?" "Bring them on down." "Come on, guys." "Who do we have here?" " Jim." " Hi, Jim." " Dave." " Sit down." "Welcome to Tool Time." "All right, what we're gonna have is a Tool Time seminar on how to talk to your ladies." "All right." "Which one of your girlfriends talks the most?" " That's mine." " No way." "Mine, without a doubt." "Phyllis is always talking up a storm." "Hurricane Lorraine?" "Need I say more?" " Phyllis throws shoes." " l've seen worse..." "Guys, could we?" "OK." "My wife is studying to be a psychologist." "They do something called role-play, to learn about the other person's position." "We need somebody to play the role of Lorraine." "Al, you have a very strong feminine side." "Would you be Lorraine for this experiment?" "Only if Lorraine gets to finish the cabinet doors." "OK, Dave, you're it." "What if Lorraine is watching this?" "Are you kidding me?" "She wouldn't watch Tool Time." " She hates Tim." " Oh, yeah." "Obviously a woman with taste." "Can we begin?" "OK." "Dave, you're gonna be Lorraine." "I want you to tell everybody what Lorraine says to Jim to get him in trouble." "All right, all right, I know this one." "Jim, you said you were gonna be home last night, but I came by your house and you weren't there." "Where were you?" " Where was I?" " (horn)" "Tool Time tip." "Women always know men are lying when they repeat the question." "Oh." "All right." "Come on, sweetheart." "Turn up the heat." " Why didn't you call?" " l was busy." " Too busy to call?" " You know, I was thinking of you." " What were you thinking?" " l was thinking of calling you." " No, you weren't." " Yes, I was." " Are you lying?" " Am I lying?" "(horn honks)" "Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy." "'Fraid Lorraine's got your biscuits in a vise, buddy." "Now, wait a minute." "I want to know why he didn't call me." "Dave, I think the role-playing's over." "Oh." "Makes my point." "Women, or guys playing women, tend to confuse us." "Tim, what about when Lorraine talks to me about commitment?" "I love her, but I don't know about marriage." "I'm not ready." "Excuse me, Jim," "Lorraine would understand if you explained that marriage is the first step of a sacred journey, and something that important cannot be put on the fast track." "Well, let's put that to a vote." "How many think Al gave Jim good advice or put Jim on the fast track to a quick head injury?" "(all) Head injury." "Oh, come on." "Not all women are trying to trap men." "Trap, snare, snag." "A woman has to be married, otherwise she'd be home nagging herself." "If you ladies would like to contact Tim directly, that's 555-TOOL." "Operators are standing by." "I think I see the ring... and a lot of that broccoli Brad says he's been eating." "Go upstairs, take a tennis ball and drop it down, see if you can dislodge that thing." "OK." "Yzerman almost goes into the bench, but he doesn't." " Flips it up to Fedorov." " Uh-oh, Mom's home!" "Cleanup mode." "Hey, Mom." "How was your day?" "It was fine until I went into the student lounge and saw a bunch of people watching Tool Time." "You didn't notice the part where Dad called you an old hen, now, did you?" "Yes, I did." "I guess that would make Dad a dead duck." " Hi, Mom." "Hi, guys." " Hi." "What are you doing?" "Dad's in the basement waiting for me to drop this tennis ball down the vent." " He thinks it will knock the ring loose." " All right. I'm ready." "Please, allow me." "(Tim) Come on, let me have it." "(clattering)" " (thud)" " Ow!" "I said a tennis ball, not a croquet ball." " lt wasn't me." " Who was it?" "The old hen." "Hi, henny." "I mean, honey." "I suppose you..." "Oh." "I suppose you saw the show today." "You are so pathetic." "Why is it that I have to drag everything out of you at home, but you'll blab about your feelings in front of a bunch of strangers on Tool Time?" "Well, because on Tool Time I can say whatever I want... and people don't hit me in the head with croquet balls." "Jill!" "(clattering)" " (thud)" " Ow!" "Hike." "Come on, guys." "You're supposed to be cleaning the house, aren't you?" "Sorry, Dad. I mean, if us out here is bothering you, just say something." "Why do we have to drag it out of you?" "How can you share things with strangers on Tool Time, but not with your own sons?" "I feel like sharing my feelings right now with both of you." " l got him, Brad." " (Tim) Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!" "Hey, Dad, go deep." "(harmonica plays)" "Wilson?" "(Wilson) Hi-ho, neighbor." "You know, Tim, I woke up this morning and the blues were all around my bed." "Maybe you should have tried vacuuming." "Well, I got hit with a croquet ball." "I got the black-and-blues." "# Got out of my bed" "# Got hit in the head" "# Knocked out of my shoes # l got those lowdown croquet-ball blues" "When did you learn to play?" "This morning." " Can I ask you a question?" " Bring it on home, Tim." "You know what gives me the blues?" "Women." "Jill in particular." "She likes to talk everything to death." "And she wants to know what I feel, how I feel, when I feel it." "Nag, nag, nag, nag, nag." "Well, Tim, is it nagging or is Jill searching for intimacy?" "Nagging." "I had a problem." "Not a big one, I just didn't want to let her know." "She dragged it out of me, and when I told her, she jumps down my throat, totally overreacted." "Well, maybe Jill's got a touch of the blues herself." " Why would she have the blues?" " Oh, Tim, I don't know." "I just know that Mahalia Jackson, the great singer, said having the blues is like being in a deep pit yelling for help." "So when she's yelling at me, maybe she's just crying out for help?" "Well, there's only one way to find out, Tim." "Talk to her." "(grunting) No more talk." "I am not talking anymore." "(Wilson plays harmonica) # l told my baby how I was feeling" "# A big wooden ball fell down from the ceiling" "# Now we're gonna have a discussion" "# 'Cause my baby gave me a concussion" "(both) # We got the lowdown, croquet-ball blues" "Hey, Al." "Tim." "Al, you're not still angry because we didn't finish that cabinet door, are you?" "Albert." "It's not good to have any unresolved issues." "As a matter of fact, yes, I was looking forward to that segment." "I told some cabinetmaker friends of mine about it." "They were very disappointed." "I hope they didn't come unhinged." " About 30 seconds, guys." " (Tim) Thanks, Heidi." "Tim?" "Tim!" " Why are you here?" " We gotta talk." " l'm ready to do the show." " Wait." "Our girlfriends saw the show." "You gotta help us." " We are in big trouble." " How big a trouble?" "You said your girlfriend didn't watch it, that she hated me." " Her mother taped it." " Yeah, she loves Al." " What do you want me to do, guys?" " Go out and tell them it's all your fault." "Jim, Dave, you wanna help out?" "We'll do it together." " Oh, no, no." " No!" "I'm not going out there with you." "You're dangerous." "Now you know how I feel." "(applause)" "Thank you." "Oh." "Thank you, Heidi." "Oh, you're too kind." "Welcome to Tool Time." "I am Tim "The Blues Man" Taylor." " And you all know my assistant Al..." " (harmonica plays) ..."The Reason I Got The Blues" Borland." "Well, on yesterday's show I might have gone a little overboard." " We got a few calls from female viewers." " 398." "Who's counting?" "Me." "(Tim) You'll all remember the bachelors" "Apparently I got them in a little hot water with their girlfriends. I intend to fix that now." " Tim." " Marv, you want to follow me back here?" "Got a minute, Marv?" "Come on, buddy." "Come on." "(Jim) What are you doing?" "A chance to make it up to your girlfriends." "No, no." "Get the camera away." "You've gotta do this." "To have a good relationship, you gotta talk about it." "Come here." "Want to say something to Phyllis?" "I guess so." "Hi, Phyllis." "I want to state publicly that I'm sorry for anything that I might have said, or will ever say in the future." "And most importantly..." "Phyl, listen to this." "...I'll never listen to Tim again." "The only Tool Time tip you'll ever need." "You want to say something to Phyllis?" "Excuse me" " Lorraine." "Yeah." "Lorraine, remember at the restaurant yesterday we talked about getting married, and you looked deep in my eyes and you said:" ""Pick a date, you pig, or die"?" "Well, I thought about it." "May 28." " That's the Indy 500 weekend." " June 4." "Congratulations, Lorraine." "But to show I'm serious, I got a ring." " That's a beauty." "Can I see that?" " Sure." "Hey, Marv, if you can focus on this, come on in close." "Look at the size of that thing, huh?" "You know, I have never seen that drain before." "Hi." "Hi." " l want to show you something." " What?" "Come here." "I made a scale model of the office I'll build you when you become a psychologist." "Here's your desk, here's your chair, and here's your nut." " (Jill) Where am I?" " Seated at the desk." " And why did you do this?" " l thought it would cheer you up." "I think you might have the blues and maybe we should talk." " So you're saying you want to talk?" " Why do you think I'm laying down?" "The other day, when you asked me what I was feeling, I told you, and you jumped down my throat." "(Jill) You're right." "It wasn't fair." "If I'm going to ask for your feelings, then I should be able to accept them no matter what they are." "(Tim) And not hit me in the head with a croquet ball." "Sorry about that. (kiss) I'm not sure you should kiss your patients in that part of the peanut." "I should learn to listen to your feelings and understand what you're going through." "You helped me when I changed careers into Tool Time." "And I want to do the same for you, 'cause, with your talent, you might have your own show." "Your own psychology show - can you imagine?" ""ls everyone cognizant of what time it's become?"" ""lt's Psycho Time."" " Tim!" " Right here." "Guess what." " l think, I hope, I did great on the test." " Congratulations." "Yeah, if I had to guess, I think I might be in the 90th percentile." "Out of how many?" "(grunts)" " l figured out a way to get your ring back." " What?" "I taped up all the vents in the house, except the one in the kitchen." "I installed a Binford 61 00 super compressor on the furnace." "I'm gonna blow that thing right out of here." "So just stand back here for protection." "Countdown to ring-out." "Three, two, one." "is it my ring?" "I think... I don't believe it!" " ls it OK?" " Let's take a look at it." "Perfect." "It's even cleaner now." "Your inscription's worn off." ""l will never love... an otter."" ""Another."" ""l will never love another." Huh." "And to think all these years I've been avoiding otters." "Make sure the joint on your door is secure." "And for that, we're using a biscuit joiner to cut the slots in our wood for the biscuits." "Biscuits?" "Do you think they..." "No." "They're not buttermilk biscuits." "They're not sourdough biscuits." "They're not dog biscuits." "They're not biscuits with honey, biscuits with gravy, biscuits in a box or in a basket." "You're a biscuit case, Al."

"Bro." " Bro, rest a bit." " Bro, I'm not tired." "Take a rest." "Hey, go on!" "Let's go." "Bro, take a sip." "What's up?" "Homesick?" "I miss my kid." "My ass!" "You miss your kid's mom!" "Hey, what's your old maid look like?" "Ain't so pretty." "She's got big lips." "I've heard women with big lips are good in bed." "You're not afraid she'll shack up with another?" "All the men in my village have left to find work." "So, the girls are all stuck bored at home?" "That's sweet." "How about introducing me?" "I'll be your village stud, okay?" "Just go if you want." "Who needs an introduction?" "I won't sleep with your old maid." "Just take a look at yourself." "Hey, want to go home?" "Of course!" "Bro, I'll send you back home today." "What do you think?" "It's only been a few days." " I haven't received any pay yet." " I'm serious." "Don't trick me." "Why'd I trick you?" "Look!" " What happened down the shaft?" " Roof fell in." " Bad?" " Don't know." " Anyone get crushed?" " Don't know." "Go on." "Block all of the exits." "No one is allowed out." " Have you seen the boss?" " Over there." " Boss, you gotta save my brother." " Calm down!" " Anyone else?" " Don't know." "You gotta help me." "No problem." " First take him away." " Go on, get out of here." " What's this?" " I've got to make a police report." "I'm going to get the boss." "Go away!" "Boss, you must let me file a report and send a telegram to his family." " Calm down." "Let's first discuss this." " I can't stay!" "I know you want his family to come." "There's no need for that." "It's the village tradition." "You've got to let his family see him one last time." "Yes, but Tang is his brother." "Can't he make the decision?" "It makes no difference if he makes a decision or not." "Death's no simple matter." "You should speak to Tang yourself." "Can't you cool down?" "Sit down." "Have a smoke." "Song, you've got some nerve." "Why haven't you sent that telegram?" "Boss, why do you care?" "The one dead ain't your brother." "He's the one who blocked all the exits." "Tang, I understand." "I don't oppose your family coming." "You tell him." "Your brother was crushed to death." "I don't blame you for being upset." "This is a big deal for my mine." "I'd let your family come." "I'm just afraid they would freeze on the way." "I've never experienced this." "Without my folks here, I can't make the decision." "Let's bring in our village's Party Secretary." " That's okay too." " Forget it!" "You know, all his travel expenses would come out of his compensation." "You'd have nothing left." "I don't care about the money." "A million couldn't even buy back my brother's life." "Tang, if you're going be like that, there's very little we can do." "Just forget it then." "Hey, what's gotten into you?" "Come back." "When you first arrived, you touted like experts." "Just a few days later, and this had to happen." "Boss, let me explain." "Don't bother." "Let's just say I'm jinxed." "Tell him, I'll pay 20 grand." "Take it or leave it." "Get out." "I'll try." "Hey, what you looking at?" "Get out of here." "There's nothing to see." "Boss, everything's in order." "A guard is posted at each exit." "No news of this can leak out." "If the authorities investigate us, we'll be screwed." " Boss, you're looking for me?" " Come in, sit down." " What is it?" " Sit down." "What'd he say?" "Well, maybe the government should be involved." "He should just get what he deserves." "This is fair and less trouble for you, right?" "Fine." "I'm not afraid." "The county and bureau chiefs are my friends." "We've got people in the coal bureau too." "But this won't help Tang at all." "I don't care if he gets any money." "I'm just helping you two out." "Just speak to Tang." " The two of you can work it out." " Song, I'm not against you." "Tang's just too upset to talk to." "You two are friends." "You can tell me how much money he wants." "He said if his folks won't be coming, he wants at least 40 grand." " How much?" " Forty grand." "Not a cent less." "Tell him to rob a bank!" "Boss, just think what he's going through." "He came with his brother to work, earned close to nothing, only to lose him." "I know all that." "I ain't got that kind of money." "The mine's not turning a profit." " I even had to borrow this 20 grand." " I know it's not easy running this mine." "But if you give more, it's easier to convince him." "Okay, let's see." "Have a light." "I have one." "Boss, why bother?" "Why not just kill the two of them?" "You crazy?" "We can't take any chances now." "Just get in touch with your police chief pals." "No way." "These cronies gotta take a hefty cut." "A hundred grand ain't enough for them." "Only as a last resort." "Okay." "This is your salary." "Take an extra grand for yourself." " I can't take this money." " No one will ever know." "I'd still help you even without this money." "I know, but I can't take advantage of my friends." "It's almost the New Year." "A corpse lying' around isn't auspicious." "I understand." "But honestly, I think 20 grand is really not enough." "His sister-in-law is still young." "Two children and parents have to be take care of." "I can add no more than ten grand, not a cent more." "Or why'd I need your help?" " First, take two grand." " What's this?" "It's soon the New Year's." "Don't you want to go back home earlier?" "Help me take care of this quickly." "Okay, I'll try." "Hey, boss." "Not so quickly." "First, sign this at the top." "I can't really read it." "Song, help me take a look." "Look carefully." "His brother died due to his own carelessness." "The mine is not responsible at all, right?" "Boss, you agreed to 30 grand." "This money's not right." "Don't you know what's best for you?" "It's not so simple." " I'm afraid this ain't going to do." " Really?" "What if I chop off my two fingers?" "Are they worth two grand?" "It's about right." "Just sign it." "Pack your bags and burn the corpse." "Get the fuck out of here!" "Hey, look, the lighter." "Just fuckin' think about it." "Are you so awesome?" " Where are the shoes?" " What shoes?" "Your brother's." "I forgot about that." "Don't fuckin' play stupid with me." "You want to wear them?" "This is what I want." "Take it." "It's not even enough to get laid." "Don't give me that." "Half each." "I won't spoil this rule." " Stop fooling around." "Take it." " You take it." "This is yours." " I still have a funny feeling." " What?" "Didn't you agree on 30 grand?" "How'd it turn into 28 grand?" "Hey, what do you fucking mean?" "I earned all of this." "How about you do the talking next time?" "Don't get all worked up." "I'm saying that mine boss is crooked." "They're all fucking the same, doing anything to save a bit." "What was the name of the guy we killed?" "Yuan." "Who the fuck knows?" "Why'd you give him the name Zhao Xia?" "He's your brother." "What else could he be called?" "Take the cremation urn." "Next time, it's your turn to mourn." "Hold onto your receipt." "Check that the address is correct." "It's right." "Can it arrive in a few days?" " Two to three days." " Thanks!" "Put it in savings." "How's my son doing in school?" "How are his grades?" "Tell him if his grades are low, I'll beat him." " I'm going back before the New Year." " That's enough." "Let's go." " You want to say anything to your family?" " What's to say?" "I just sent the money." "Just tell his family he wired money back." "That's it." "Bye." " How much a ticket?" " Five." " Five." " Let's go." " Let's take a look." " Five's too much." "Fuckin' move out of the way!" "You think you're all innocent?" "Madame!" "Madame!" "What's going on?" " What's going on?" " You don't want my business?" "What happened?" "Ask your girl." " What happened?" " He's always poking between me legs." "I can't feel you up?" " What's your job?" " Feeling a little won't make your leg fall off." "Mister, Xiao Fang is an obedient girl." "Treat this gentleman here real well." " Hey, mister." " Come on." "Don't get angry, mister." "Fucking unbelievable." "What?" "Mister, don't be angry." "Xiao Fang will take good care of you." "Be real nice to this gentleman." "Mister, pick a song." "He can't fucking sing." "He only knows how to fuck you." "Go to hell!" "I was in the front row when our commune sang." "When was that?" "What'd you sing?" "We sang "Long Live Socialism."" "Put the song on." "Mister, that song's become old-fashioned ages ago." "How about singing a new song?" "Let him sing it." "Long live socialism, long live socialism" "Socialist countries high atop" "Reactionaries overthrown" "The imperialists run away with their tails behind..." "Hey, you hick, the words changed ages ago." "How'd they change?" "Xiao Fang, teach him." "Let's sing it together." "The reactionaries were never overthrown" "The capitalists came back with their US dollars" "Liberating all of China" "Bringing the sexual climax of socialism..." "What climax?" "Sexual climax." "Why aren't you banging her?" "I already fucked her." " What's the rush?" " I'm nervous." "Nervous?" "What for?" "Her pussy won't bite you." "How about if I help you out?" "Get the fuck out of here." "Fuck!" "I fucking wasted this 100." "There's no hope for you." "I should have given this to my child." "Okay, that's enough." "Go on." "You're such a bummer." "What are you fucking laughing at?" " Hey, gal, we want to order." " Coming." " What'd you two like?" " Two bowls of noodles." "Two, right?" " You have any special dishes?" " Longevity lamb stew, lamb stomach hot pot." "We'll have a bowl of lamb stew." "I'll be right back." "Why the fuck is it called "longevity" lamb stew?" "To rip you off." "Now only a mom's feelings for her kids ain't fake." "I don't think so." "Have some tea." "My God, that crony embezzled several million." "He deserves to be executed." "That prick was just fucking like our village's party secretary." "I'd open a mine, too, if given a thousand grand." "They'd burn your ass." "Not in the mining business, no way." "I don't need a thousand grand." "A hundred grand is enough for me." "If I had it, I wouldn't waste a cent." "I'd use it all to send my son to college." " You know, my son's a top student." " What can I do?" "Mine's no good." "Why doesn't he go to school?" "He's a troublemaker, just fucking like me." " Miss, looking for someone to work?" " No." "Back then, my family was poor." "If we had money, I'd have finished high school and gone to college." " I wouldn't have to fucking do this with you." " Go to hell." "Now only money fucking matters." " Waiter, you have garlic?" " Yes." "Bring some garlic." "Here's your garlic and longevity lamb stew." " Mister, you wanna play?" " I don't have any money." " Any plumbers?" " Yes, here." " Any bricklayers?" " I just want plumbers." " Gotta install a gas pipe." " No problem." " How many years you worked?" " More than ten." " Are you sure?" " Of course." "Take the tools and come with me." "What were they looking for?" "I don't know either." "I didn't quite hear it." " It's tough waiting for work here." " Yes, I've already come for three days." "Only three days." "Some wait for more than ten." "It's the luck of the draw." "I just found a job in a coalmine." "You can make a lot of money." "What's damn taking so long?" "Excuse me, mister." "Got a light?" "Thanks." "Mister, the place you just mentioned, is it far?" "Damn, the pay's only good far away." "You can earn a grand a month." "You can really make that much?" "Would I lie to you?" "Mister, you think you could take me with you?" "No, I've already got a partner." "Mister, but I..." "Don't worry." "My partner's nephew is sick." "It may be fine if you can take his nephew's place." "Okay." "But I got to ask my partner first." "That's fine." " Okay?" " Yes." " Then come along with me." " Thanks, mister." " What's your name?" " Yuan Feng Ming." " Working in the mines is really tough." " I'm not afraid." "I can do any type of work." "That's good." "Song Jinming." " Buy the ticket?" " Not yet." "Then what the fuck were you doing?" "I met this kid." "You were to buy a fucking ticket." "Why'd you come back with this kid?" "Cool down." "He wants to go work with us." "Hurry, call him Uncle." " Uncle." " Who's your uncle?" " What's your name?" " He's asking your name." "Yuan Feng Ming." "You've run away from school?" "Why aren't you studying?" "I can't pay for school." "Fuck, what kind of prick is your father?" "He doesn't even pay for school." "Don't blame my father." "He left to make money." "I haven't heard from him for half a year." "What are you crying for?" "Your father got rich and found a mistress." " He won't come back." " No way." " How old are you?" " Sixteen." "Will he fucking do?" "I feel bad for this kid." "Isn't your nephew sick?" "How about letting him take your nephew's place?" "You know fucking anything about mining?" "What can this fucking kid do?" "It's too dangerous." "Uncle, I'm not afraid." "I can do anything." "Then go fucking do something else." "This job ain't for you." " Come on, help him out." " Help him?" "I mean what I said." "Wait here." "Come over here." "What are you doing?" "You pretending?" "Or you really don't want to do it?" " Haven't we already agreed on the plan?" " Hey, man, stay cool." "The two of us go way back." "We must follow the code." "What fucking code?" "You've fucking found a kid." "You want to keep this racket up?" "I don't care if he's a child, just as long we can make money." "If you were dirt poor, your son would also look like this for a job." "You feel bad for him, but who feels bad for you?" " Anyway, I don't feel it's right." " Then you look for someone yourself." "Sit up straight." "Move to the right." "You're crooked." "Look happy." "Give us a smile." "Fucking smile." "You can't even do that?" "Look at you!" "He's an honest kid." "You're just making him nervous." "Feng Ming, don't be afraid." "Smile a bit." "Don't smile so much." "Don't blink your eyes." "It's good." "What's your name?" "Yuan Feng Ming." " What?" " Yuan Feng Ming." "I'll smack you." "What'd I just teach you?" "Is your brain all chicken feed?" "I'll tell you one last time." "Remember, your last name is Song." " How old are you?" " Eighteen." " Are you sure?" " Don't you want me to be two years older?" "You fucking listened real well to this." "Just listen to your uncle and you'll be fine." "You want anything else?" " No, thanks." " Hurry up and eat." " Hey, give us the bill." " Okay." " How much?" " Nine yuan." "Get your ID cards, passports, driver's licenses." "ID cards, driver's licenses." "Uncle, can we find my father on the way?" "China's so fucking big." "Where you want to start?" "Where'd he go off to work?" "I heard he went to Shanxi." "After I earn some money, I'll first pay for my sister's school." "Then I'll look for my father." "I'm sure I can find him." "Let's go." "It's up ahead." "Mister, are you hiring here?" "No." " Any mines around here hiring?" " Look over there." "Thanks." "Let's go." "We're almost there, just up ahead." " Mister." " What you want?" " Looking for work." " For work?" " Yep, all of us." " Come on then." "Don't forget, your last name is Song." "He's your uncle." "If you don't get it right, don't think of making any money." "You got that?" "Got it." "Look more alert, not like you're fucking asleep." "Boss Wang, this is Tang Chao Yang." "This is my nephew." " This is my uncle." " Bullshit!" "How old are you?" "Eight..." "Eighteen." "That old?" "You don't look eighteen." "My nephew looks young." "I've brought our IDs." "Let me see." "Here's his and mine." "Here's mine." " Have you gone down a mineshaft?" " Yep." " Why'd you stop working?" " The roof fell in and crushed workers." "What's a few deaths?" "One shits after eating." "One might die down the shaft." "If you're afraid, then don't work here." "Boss, you're right." "After the family of the deceased found out, they all demanded compensation." "The safety measures failed inspection." "Production was halted." "The mine boss seized." "Yeah, we lost the job." "The mine was sealed." "Regulating is worth a fart." "It can't prevent any deaths." "But we're safe here." "First, work a few days as a trial." "If okay, we can sign a contract." "If not, you can pack your bags and get out." "No pay during the trial period." "Boss, how's that fair?" "Take it or leave it." "Otherwise, get the hell out of here." "China has a shortage of everything but people." "Boss, we'll work." "Don't get mad." "This kid doesn't know better." "Take them to the shacks." "Inform them of the rules around here." "You will live here." "You sleep here." "You, over there." "It's warm." "Bring my bag over here." "And the black one, too." "The shoes are 15 and the hat 50." "What about you two?" "Fifty for the hat?" "Do you have to wear one?" " You little pecker of a kid, looking to die?" " Mister, he's a kid and don't know much." "That'll do." "Working down the shaft, you gotta wear a safety helmet, you know?" " Just tell me if you don't got any money." " Your uncle's got cash." "Why not use the 100 for something better?" "Better to buy for the kid." "What the fuck are you doin'?" "You must return it when you get paid." "Go get some coal." "Feng Ming, bring the vegetables and flour over here." "Can't let the rats eat it." "Hurry up." " You're new here." "What's your name?" " Song Feng Ming." "Read aloud the procedures for entering the mine." " You're new, too?" " Yep." " Name?" " Tang Chao Yang." "You go on over, too." "Louder." "Go over there, too." ""Must not enter the mine without proper..." "No bringing cigarettes or alcohol into the mine." Let's go." "Whose kid is this?" "Such a white face." "Like a girl's." "He's my nephew." "His name is Feng Ming." "You three go to area eight with Han." "You go to area four." "Change your clothes." " Aren't you hot?" " No." "Hurry and change." "You'll be covered with sweat once we start working." "Uncle, I'm not hot." "Listen to me." "Hurry up." "Give me the pickax." "Hey, what you doing?" "Afraid?" "Are you such a coward?" "Come here." "You still want to work?" "Don't work here if you're afraid of death." "Why are you yelling at him?" "Who ain't afraid the first time down here?" "Feng Ming, keep working." "Don't be afraid." " Here." " I haven't washed my hands yet." "Why you got so many fucking problems?" "Gonna eat?" "That water's to drink, not to wash your hands." "Bath time." " All of us together?" " Watch your mouth!" " Hey, is the water hot?" " Of course." "How's the water?" "Not so fucking bad." "Hey, your dick is so small." "Show it to us." "Missus, the water's cold." "Add some hot water." "Uncle, help me." "Pull him up so we can see." "When you've finished, let's get in, too." " Feng Ming, what are you reading?" " History textbook." " Why are you reading that?" " It's interesting." "What's the use?" "After leaving school, you can't go back." "Who says?" "My teacher said I could come back if I could pay." " What?" " I could go back to school." "Kid, your teacher fooled you." "My teacher said the same thing." "Does your family own the school?" "Can you go back anytime?" "This is my dad, my mom, and my sister." "Her grades are real good." "What is it?" "What is it anyway?" "Tell me." " Who do you think this kid looks like?" " Who?" "The sucker we killed last time." "Which time?" "The guy named Yuan." "What about Yuan?" "When the kid told us his last name is Yuan, I felt something was wrong." "Why?" "I just saw his picture." "The two of them look alike." " Where's the picture?" " The kid's got it." "Why don't you get it?" "I can't take it by force." "Who fucking cares?" "They're all the same shit." "If we kill him, we'll end his family line." "Why fucking worry about that?" "Who cares if his family line ends?" "What?" "You're afraid?" "When have I ever been fucking afraid?" "I just have a bad feeling." "What do you want to do?" "They don't look at all alike." " You looked at it?" " Of course I did." "It can't be so coincidental, but their last names are fucking the same." "So many people have that last name." "We'll kill him tomorrow." "No need to rush." "This mine boss is a tricky bastard." "We got to really convince him we're related." "These mine jobs are really hard going." "I know." "Let's just wait and see." "Uncle, lend me some money." "What for?" "Don't worry." "I'll return it when I get paid." "You really got into high school?" "No way that's true." "It's mine." " Don't play that card." " Bug off." "How you gonna get rid of that card?" "You're all dead." "Get out of here." "Stick it on." "I'll do it myself." " Feng Ming, what are you up to?" " Fetching some coal." "Uncle, here's some more to eat." "Feng Ming, why can't you look me in the eyes?" "You're just like a little girl." "You saw him butt-naked." "He's embarrassed." "So what?" "I've seen everything." "Miss, have you seen mine before?" "Go suck yourself." "Feng Ming, don't take after them." "They're all rotten goods." "How do you know our goods are no good?" "Tang's dick is huge." " Mine is, too." " Shut up." "Go to sleep." " Feng Ming, what you doing?" " Writing a letter." " Who you writing to?" " My sister." "Your family still don't know where you are." "Uncle, when do we get paid?" "My sis really needs to pay for school." "I really want to send the money back soon." "In a few days." " How old's your sister?" " Fourteen." "Your writing looks really good." "I really want to be paid earlier." "Wow, take a look at this tit." "As big as a cow's." " You got a girlfriend, kid?" " My teacher wouldn't let me have a girlfriend." "You always listen to him?" "I'll mail it for you." "Have you shaved?" "How many times I got to tell you?" "You don't want to be a man?" "Go shave." "Give it to me!" "There's nothing to see!" "Hey, what are you two doing?" "Where you sneaking off to?" " It's nothing." "Just going to send a letter." " There's a post office over there?" "If you can't work honestly, fucking get lost!" "Who do you think you are?" "What an ass!" "He'll be hurting in a few days." " Could he know something?" " Who fucking cares?" "I just don't feel something's' right." "He's not up to it at all." "He's going to pay out if someone dies in the mine." "You kill the kid." "I'll take care of him." " What the fuck you doing?" " What?" " I haven't seen the letter yet." " There's nothing to see." " Then why can't I be the one to tear it up?" " Yeah, yeah." " What's your fucking meaning?" " Not a thing." " Tell me fucking right up?" " Not a thing!" "Fuck you, man!" "You gotta tell me right now." "If we kill the kid, his folks can find us from this letter." "They'd get us." " So you're the fucking smart one?" " It's just that we gotta hurry it up." "How can we fucking hurry?" "We can't make a move when our fucking boss always sends someone with us." "Then we've got to kill them all." "Cool down, okay?" "Can't we wait for the right opportunity?" "Got the lighter?" "I think you feel for the kid." "If I feel for him, who's fucking feeling for me?" "This ain't fucking about sympathy." "I think Feng Ming can't die yet." "He's never been laid." "That's easy." "Just find him a girl to deflower him." "I'll leave that to you." " I'd be doing it if I had the money." " You're not going to cooperate?" "This isn't about cooperating." "Why not use the 100 for something else?" "Fuck it, then we each pay half." "Okay, we'll get him laid today." "Tomorrow we'll kill him." "Mister, where you going?" "Want to take a look?" " What services you got here?" " Head massage, full body massage." " That's all?" " Yeah, what else do you want?" " You do the big head or small head?" " Any head you want." "Come inside." "Mister, have some tea." " What do you have here?" " We have girls, everything with girls." " Are you in charge?" " Yes." "How much?" "150." "So much?" "Any cheaper?" "Cheaper?" "How about 120?" "100, okay?" "300 for the three of you, fine?" "Go ahead and choose." " Are all your girls here?" " Yeah." "Who do you like?" "That one." "Xiao Hong." "Come on." "Not me." "Feng Ming, come here." "Haven't you been slowing down at work?" "This girl will give you a massage." "She'll get you up to speed and turn you into a real man." "Uncle, I don't need a massage." "Exercise is enough." " Fuck!" "This is to make you better." " Go on." " Get up there." " Let's go." "Come here, guys." "Sit over here." "You two are from the mines?" " How do you know?" " I can tell just by looking." "You treat your nephew real good." "Uncle, she took off my pants." "How can she give you a massage if you don't get naked?" "You have to cooperate." "This is to make you better, you get that?" " Uncle, I don't want a massage." " Go on." "I'll go with you." "Where?" "What'd you do to him?" "Nothing." "He kept covering himself." "He wouldn't let me touch him." "What's your job?" "You couldn't think of a way?" "Feng Ming, you gotta cooperate to get better." "Understand?" "You get naked and wait here." "If you run out again, I'm through with you." "You got me?" "Go on!" "Hey, don't go." "Use all of your tricks on him." "If you don't take good care of him, I'm not paying." "It's my boy's first time." "Why you still standing?" "Lie down there." "Take off your underwear." "I can't give you a massage with your pants on." "You've never had one before?" "Come on, take it off." "Don't be nervous." "Your feet stink." "Take off your clothes yourself." "Lie down." "If you don't lie down, I can't give you a massage." "What's your name?" "Song Feng Ming." "My name's Xiao Hong." "How old are you?" "How old?" "Don't be nervous." "Take good care of him." "Have a smoke." "Hey, didn't we already agree?" "Don't you want two girls?" " You don't want to have a good time with us?" " These girls here are very good." "I don't like them." "I only like you." "Let's do it?" "Okay, but I'm not the same price." "You want me, it's 300 dollars." "So expensive!" " Yours must be lined with gold." " And studded with diamonds." "Really?" "Earning money's easy for you girls, a few hundred each time your legs spread." " I can't get anything for a hundred." " You can make yourself feel good." "You'd feel even better." "Why's the man always got to pay?" "It's so unfair." "Don't ask me." "You gotta ask God that one." "Feng Ming, what happened?" "Stop!" "What?" "She didn't make you feel good?" " Tell me!" " Uncle, I've turned into a bad man." "Don't fucking cry!" "I spent this money to make you feel good." "Why the fuck aren't you happy?" "Let me tell you this, all boys got to experience this." "That's how you become a man, right?" "I've shamed myself." "My life's over." "You really don't know what's good for you." "Die if I care." "Bang your head into that wall." "Go ahead!" "Who cares if you die?" "Want some water?" "Yeah?" "Here." "Fuck you." "You don't answer me." "Are you testing me?" "What you going to gain by this?" " What are you doing?" " What are you doing?" " Why aren't you making a move?" " Wait two more fucking days, okay?" " Why?" " They're about to pay our salaries." "That money ain't worth shit." "This is our chance." "Let's first kill him." "We got to follow a certain code of behavior." "We should send him off with some wine." "A kid doesn't drink no wine." "That's up to the kid." "It's up to us to provide the wine, you know?" "A criminal on death row deserves some food and wine, right?" "Okay, I guess you got a point." " Then when do we kill him?" " I told you we'll kill him in two days." "What if you don't kill him?" "Then you can fucking kill me, okay?" "Aren't we together?" "How could I kill you?" "Okay, like you say, in two days." "Look how happy you are." "Go buy a bottle of liquor." " Okay." " Go on without me." "Go find a girl and keep her for me." "Hurry, you've only got a few hairs to comb!" " You going or what?" " We're going." " Mister, is this the line for wiring money?" " Yes." "Feng Ming, stand here." "I'll fill out the form for you." "Take your receipt." " What's your mother's name?" " Ma Gui Zhen." "Hey, it's you." "You're also sending money back home?" "Is the address correct?" "Yes." "Uncle, here's money I owe you." "Forget it." "It's only a few bucks." "Really, I mean it." "My mother told me I must always return money." "Uncle, take it." " You hungry?" " Get some sesame cakes." " How much for one?" " One yuan." "I only want one." "What about the kid?" "Hey." "Where's the kid?" "Feng Ming!" "Feng Ming!" "Fuck!" "Where'd he run off to?" "Feng Ming!" "Over there." " You can't even take care of a kid." " Why don't you look after him?" "Fuck you." "Feng Ming!" "Feng Ming!" "Where'd he go?" "Over there." "Where the fuck did you run off to?" "Where you running to?" "Uncle, I bought a chicken for you." "You need a beating!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Two-six-six-five." "You lost again." "Drink." "Don't let him drink." "He can't take it." "Gotta drink if you lose." "Drink." "I know what I'm doing." "I won't mess up tomorrow's plans." "Okay, go ahead and drink." "What were you doing away such a long time?" "Feng Ming, come here." "Sit down." "Toast with us." "Uncle, Mr. Tang, thanks for everything." "I wish you health and prosperity." "Hey, it's not the New Year's." "What's all that for?" "Sit down." "Feng Ming, if Uncle lets you down, don't be angry with me." "Drink!" "Cheers." "Why are you making the kid drink?" "You're drunk!" "Everyone knows you're good to your nephew." "I'll drink for him." "Stay out of this." "The two of us are drinking." " Why make the kid drink?" " This is just between the two of us." "Tang, buddy, I thought you didn't drink." "Feng Ming's a man now." "I'm happy." "Feng Ming, let's toast." "Let's toast all together." "Toss out your cigarette." "Go on." "Get out of here." "They're about to dynamite." " Hurry and push the detonator further in." " Go, go, go!" "Let's go, let's go!" "Hurry!" "Almost ready." "What the fuck are you doing here?" "This will cause a cave-in." "Move, move, move!" "What you do that for?" "You'll get money from killing him?" "I just eliminate anyone in the path of my fortune." "Here's the water." "Mr. Tang, have some water." "I don't want any." "Let your uncle have some." "Uncle, here." "Feng Ming, you homesick?" "Of course I am." "You want your uncle to send you home?" "Not yet." "I haven't earned enough money." "Is everyone out?" "Have you decided yet?" "Sign it." " I can't sign." " Why not?" "Your uncle signed this contract with us." "It says 30 grand if someone dies." "Quite a lot." " I really can't sign it." " You're gonna sign it, or what?" "It's better for his family to take care of this." "You're not his nephew?" "You trying to raise the price?" " Don't even think of it!" " That's not what I mean." "What do you mean, then?" "Are you going to fucking sign, or what?" "Just listen to me, my child, and sign it." "Don't worry." "Just sign." "Sign it." "You haven't left anything behind?" "Subtitles by J.R. Media Services, Inc." " Burbank, CA"

" Good morning." " Morning, Mose." "Get out from under there!" "I told you once." "How many times I got to tell you?" "You come back here again..." "Good morning." "Get!" "Good morning, Harold." "Morning, Miss Zan." "What does your papa write from Baltimore?" " He writes that he feels better." " That's good." "Write him my greetings and tell him don't worry about the brass." "I'm keeping his name fine and clean." "Thanks, I will." "Those crabs will make fine eating, Addie." "They better." "We got high-tone company for dinner tonight." " Bye, Miss Zan." " Good-bye, Harold." "Hello." "You're out early." " We've been to buy crabs." " We're having gumbo tonight." "Gonna give Mr. Marshall of Chicago a real Southern dinner." "How's your mama, Mr. David?" "She's fine, thank you." "Zan, she says your petticoats are ready to be fitted." "She said you're getting older and I shouldn't say "petticoats" to you..." "I should say "underskirts," or else keep still." "You shouldn't be saying "petticoats" to me, but you know all about them." "Leo says you know almost as much as he does." "I wouldn't take your cousin Leo's word for anything." "Nobody else does." "You don't like Leo, do you?" "You don't like anybody in my family." "Yes, I do." "There's one person I'm mighty fond of." " Yes?" " Mr. David." "It's your papa." "Don't laugh at him." "He's beneath notice." "I'll take you on a picnic Sunday, if you bring your own lunch." "Whoa!" "Good morning, darling." "Good morning, Aunt Birdie." "Is your headache better?" " Yes, it's all gone." " Good morning." "I'm going to stop a minute." "You drive the horse in." "Your mama will be waiting to have breakfast with you, baby." " She ain't nobody to keep waiting." " All right." "Guess where we drove this morning." "To Lionnet." "Darling, was it beautiful?" "Of course it was." "It was always beautiful this time of year." "I've learned the Schubert for tonight." "I can play everything except the middle." "Couldn't we skip the middle?" "Maybe Mr. Marshall wouldn't notice." "We couldn't." "I'll come down and play it through for you." "You wait now." "Your mama says that Mr. Marshall's a very educated, cultured gentleman." "I'm sure he'd notice." "Now, watch." "Two and one, and two and one." " Hey, there!" " Ow." "Good morning, Uncle Ben." "I've been awaken by many things, but never by a concert." "Is this the new musical hour?" "Good morning, Ben." "I didn't realize." "I'm so sorry." "Aunt Birdie is showing me how to play a piece for Mr. Marshall tonight." "I can't complain then." " Alexandra, your breakfast is ready." " Yes, Mama." "All of you, stop that vulgar shouting out of windows." " Morning, Regina." " Really, Ben." "You look very silly in your nightgown." " You shouldn't show yourself." " That's why I never got married." "I'll dress and come over for breakfast with you and Alexandra." "Don't." "I hate conversation before I've had something hot." "What does your papa say?" ""I still miss you, Zannie, more than I can say." "But you're not to worry." "I'm not lonesome, and everybody at the hospital has been very kind. "" "He addresses the letters to me to make me think I'm grown up... the way he used to when I was little." "You don't have to explain to me." "Cal, get out that special bottle of old port for this evening." " Yes, ma'am." " The one I've been saving." "That Mr. Marshall must be a mighty honored guest." " The grits is cold." "Take it back." " Yes, ma'am." "The grits didn't hold their heat!" "Danver's girl is getting married in Memphis." "Is that so?" "I knew her mother." "She stayed with me once at Lionnet." "She was a Calhoun, and the Calhouns were kin of ours." "Mama said she was too thin for the styles, but I didn't think so." "I thought she was very pretty." " Be pleasant to Mr. Marshall at dinner." " Of course, Oscar." "No need to say too much." "If he should happen to ask about your family... the way people are interested in where other people come from... you might tell him who they were." "He'll probably recognize the names." "A good name is always useful." "Remember that, Leo." "Yes, sir?" "I mean, I heard you, sir." "Good names are always useful." " More coffee?" " If it's ready, Mama." "I've got to get back to the paper in a few minutes." "Well, the medium-size bear and the little bear." "You don't like the Hubbards much, do you?" "Mama, you're a high-tone guesser." " Where are you going?" " I'm walking you to the store." "I've been walking there a good many years without your help." "Get back to the bank." " Leo?" " Yes, sir?" " Do a good day's work." " Yes, sir." "I always do." " Hello, Harold." "Howdy, Joe." " Good morning, Mr. Leo." "Good morning, Mr. Manders." "What can I do for you today?" " You can do one thing." " Yes, sir." "What's that?" "Try keeping awake, all day." " Good morning, Mr. Ben." " Good morning to you, Miss Hannah." "And here comes the big bear." "Now the sun can really shine, the day has begun." "Mr. Ben looks mighty pleased this morning." "And no wonder. "Our leading citizen, Mr. Benjamin Hubbard... will confer this evening with Mr. William Marshall of Chicago... about the building of a cotton mill here." "Mr. Ben will advance many reasons for bringing the mill to our town. "" "But the real one is our justly renowned average wage... which ranks as the lowest in the country." "Are they gonna print that in the paper?" "Mr. William Marshall, Chicago industrialist and opera patron... is in our midst to take supper with the Hubbards and the Giddens... who will show him what our famous Southern hospitality is like." " That's pretty." " That's the way they'll print it." " Ow!" " Hold still, Zan." "You had pretty hair when you was little." "You was a mighty pretty little girl." "Addie, will anybody think I'm pretty now?" "Someday some fool of a man will, I reckon." "Seems there's always somebody for somebody." "But you'll do, baby." "You're too young to worry about such things, Alexandra." "You're going to have all the things I wanted when I was your age." "Addie, make the dinner biscuits yourself tonight." "Be sure the coffee is strong and the wine is cold." "Don't worry, Miss Regina." "The dinner will go fine tonight." "They used to go to Europe every year, Mr. Marshall." "Imagine going all the way to Europe just to listen to music!" "Once Mama met Mr. Wagner, the composer, you know." "Mrs. Wagner gave Mama and Papa a signed program." "Another time..." "No, thank you, Cal." "It's remarkable to me how you Southern aristocrats... have kept together, kept what belonged to you." "We're not aristocrats." "Our brother's wife is the only one who is." "You make great distinctions." "They've been made for us." "Take Birdie's family." "They owned the plantation Lionnet." "You've probably heard of it." "Beautiful place." "Best cotton land I ever saw." "My mother's grandfather was governor before the war." "Those folks had their day, and a great day too." "Cloth from Paris, horses you can't raise anymore..." " darkies to work for them." " We were good to our people." " Everybody knew that." " But when the war comes... these fine gentlemen ride off and leave the cotton and the women to rot." "My father was killed in the war." "He was a fine soldier." " A fine man." " Yes, certainly." "A famous soldier." "That's not the tale I'm telling Mr. Marshall, Birdie." "The war ends." "Lionnet is almost ruined, and the sons finish ruining it." "Why?" "Because the Southern aristocrat could adapt himself to nothing." "Too high-toned to try." " It's difficult to learn new ways." " You're right, it is difficult." "But maybe that's why it's profitable." "Our grandfather and our father learned the new ways, learned to make them pay." "They were in trade." "Others, like Birdie's family, looked down on them." "To make a long story short, Lionnet now belongs to us." "Twenty years ago, we took over their land, their cotton and their daughter." "You are boring Mr. Marshall with these ancient family tales." "I hope not." "I'm just making an important point for our future business partner." " You see..." " Will you come and try a very old port?" "I've been saving it for a special occasion." " Come, Alexandra." " My brother and I feel... a man ain't only in business for himself." " May I?" " Thank you." "You're most polite." "It's got to give him some satisfaction, something here." "Money ain't all, not by three shots." "Really?" "I always thought it meant a great deal." "So did I, Mr. Marshall." " I've always contended..." " What's the matter with you?" "First you chatter like a magpie, now you're sulking like a schoolgirl." " I'm not doing anything." " You've had too much wine." "Get yourself in hand, and stop acting like a fool." "You look pretty tonight, Miss Birdie, and young." "Me, young?" "Birdie, Mr. Marshall wants you and Alexandra to play for him." "Yes, Regina." "I'm coming." "You don't have to convince me you're the right people for the deal." "You want the mill here, and I do too." "It's not my business why you want it." "To bring the machine to the cotton, and not the cotton to the machine." " Henry, serve the port." " My reason is more simple." "I want to make money, and I believe I can make it on you." "However, I have no objection to more high-minded reasons." " Mr. Marshall, I feel..." " Birdie, we're ready." "Yes, Regina." "You know, Mr. Marshall..." " Thank you." "You both play charmingly." " My wife had the very best teachers." " Those folks had the best of everything." " I must be leaving for my train." "Thank you so very much." " I'm sorry you can't stay." "Come again." " Thank you." "The children will drive you to the depot." "Yes, sir." "I'll drive you down, sir." "Come on, Zan." " Be careful how you drive." " Good-bye, Mrs. Hubbard." " Good-bye, sir." " Fill them up, Oscar." "You promised to let me show you Chicago." " Do I have to make you promise again?" " I promise again." "Wait." "Before you leave, sir, here we have a strange custom." "We drink the last drink for a toast." "That's to prove that the Southerner's always on his feet for the last drink." "I give you the firm of Hubbard Sons and Marshall Cotton Mills... and to it a long and prosperous life." "Hubbard Sons and Marshall." "What y'all want?" "A little biscuit with a little gravy on it." "Somebody write you a golden letter and tell you we got gravy tonight?" " We got told." " Mr. David Hewitt tell us." " Say you got high-tone company." " Lots of meat and gravy." "Go on, get!" "Ain't my food to give away." "Feed the hungry, the Lord said." "Give them some supper, Belle." "Miss Regina say supplies going mighty fast around here... and she ain't the stingy kind." "A little bit here and there, she don't mind." " But feeding the whole town." " Stop fretting." "Tell her I did it." "Here." "You children keep quiet." "Where did the Lord say that about feeding the hungry?" "What book?" "I don't know, but if He didn't, He should have." "Go ahead." "Don't the children make a handsome pair?" "Leo, you ride here." "Let John do the driving." "Good-bye and a pleasant journey to you, sir." "Giddap." "Ben, you did it." "Looks like we did." "Looks like it?" "Don't pretend." "You look like a cat that's been licking the cream." "Let's have a drink to celebrate." "I thought the children made a very handsome couple." "Yes, you said that before." "Yes, it's beginning to look as if the deal's all set." "Remember I told him that here we drink the last drink for a toast." " I never heard that before." " Nobody ever heard it before." "The Lord forgives those who invent what they need." "I already had his signature." "But we've all done business with men... whose word over a glass is better than a bond." "Anyway, it didn't hurt to have both." " You understand what Ben means?" " Yes, I understand." " I understood when it was happening." " Did you, Regina?" "When he lifted his glass, I saw the bricks going into place." "Did you?" "I saw a lot more than that." "I'm gonna leave you and Oscar to count the bricks." " I'm going to Chicago." " Really, Regina?" "Yes, I'm going to live there." "I'm taking Alexandra with me." "I'll give big parties for her and see that she meets the best people... and the right young men too." "Later on, I'll take trips to New York and Paris... and have everything I want." "You shall come to Chicago to visit us." "Not too often, of course." "Ben, you won't have to learn to be subtle." "You'll be very rich, and the rich can be as eccentric as they like." " So you want to live in Chicago?" " Yes." "Let's all say what we'll want when we're very rich." " What do you want, Oscar?" " Might take a few trips, eh, Birdie?" " Do you good." " Yes, I'd like that." " Might even go to Jekel Island." " You know what I'd like?" "I'd like to have Lionnet back." "Maybe we could even live there." "I do think we could all be happier..." " What are you chattering about?" " About Lionnet." " Everybody was saying what they'd like." " I can't hear a word you're saying." " I was only saying..." " We heard you." "I'm waiting for you and Birdie to finish." "Four conversations are three too many." "First I said I don't know where you'll get the money to live in Chicago." "Then I was about to say I thought you heard me say that... and were pretending you didn't." "What does that mean?" "It's like this:" "For 49 percent, Marshall will put up $400,000." "Yes, I know all the terms." "Then you also know the contracts will be signed this week... and Marshall will want to see our money soon after." "Oscar and I are ready with our two-thirds of the money." "But your third, Horace's I mean, doesn't seem to be here." "You've written him, Ben's written him, we've all written him." "He answers, but..." "He answers, but there's never a word about whether he's going into this." "You're our sister." "We want you to benefit from anything we do." "And in addition to your concern for me... you do not want control to go out of the family." " That right, Ben?" " That's cynical." "But cynicism's an unpleasant way of telling the truth." "Why doesn't Horace come home and talk business?" "It's beginning to look like he doesn't want to." "Of course he wants to come home." "You can't move around with heart trouble at any moment you choose." "You know what doctors are like on a case like this." "If he wants to, why doesn't he?" "Doctors or no doctors!" "Has it ever occurred to you that Horace is also a good businessman?" " The bank's proof of that." " Then perhaps he's remaining silent... because he doesn't think he's getting enough for his money." "Seventy-five thousand he has to put up." "That's a lot of money." "Nonsense." "That seventy-five thousand will make him a million." "That ain't what Regina means." "May I interpret you?" "Regina's saying Horace wants more than a third of our share." "He's putting up a third of the money." "You put up a third, you get a third." "What else could he expect?" "I don't know about those things." "It would seem if you put up a third, you would get a third." "And yet again, there's no law about it, is there?" "I should think if you knew your money was badly needed... you might just say, "I want more." "I want a larger share. "" "You boys have done that." "I've heard you say so." "So you believe Horace is deliberately holding out?" "I don't." "But I do believe that's what you want." "Am I right, Regina?" "I wouldn't like to persuade Horace unless he gets a larger share." "He's my husband." "I must look after his interests." "Where would this larger share be coming from?" "I don't know about things like this." "Maybe it could come off your share, Oscar." "What kind of talk is this?" "I haven't said a thing." "You're talking big tonight." "Am I?" "You should know me well enough by now... to know I don't ask for things I don't think I can get." "I don't believe you can get the money or get Horace to come home." "I can get him home." "How can you get him home?" "I will send Alexandra to Baltimore." "She will tell her father that she wants him to come home... that I miss him very much and that I want him to come home." "You know Horace." "He'll come home." "I admire you, Regina." "But before he comes, what's he going to get?" "How much do you want?" "Twice what you offered." " You won't get it." " You've gone crazy." " I don't want to fight." " I don't either, Regina." "You're holding us up." "Now, that's not pretty." "But we need you, and I'm a peaceful man." "Here's what I'll do:" "I'll give Horace 40 percent... instead of the thirty-three and a third he really should get... provided he's home and his money is up within two weeks." " How's that?" " All right." "I've asked before:" "Where is this extra share coming from?" " From your share." " So that's my reward." "For 30 years I've worked for you, done the things you didn't want to do." "My, I'm being attacked on all sides tonight." "I can't believe the Lord means for the strong to parade their strength... but I don't mind doing it if it's got to be done." "Oscar, you'll be a very rich man." "What does it matter if a little more goes here, a little less goes there?" " It's all in the family." " That's right." "I'll never marry, so my money will go to Alexandra and Leo." "They might even marry someday." "That would make a great difference in my feelings if they married." " That's what I mean." " Is that what you mean, Regina?" "It's all too far away." "Addie, clean up." " We'll talk about it in a few years." " I want to talk about it now!" " But Zan is so young." " There are many things to consider." " They are first cousins." " That isn't unusual." "Grandmother and Grandfather were first cousins." "Yes, and look at us." "You're both being very gay with my money." "Regina, Oscar is giving up something for you." "You ought to try and manage something for him." " But Leo is a very wild boy." " Yes, but... please assure Oscar that you will think about it seriously." "Very well." "I assure you I will think about it seriously." " What kind of an answer is that?" " My, you're in a bad humor." "Now leave me alone." "Weren't those fine clothes Mr. Marshall had?" "Looks like maybe they were done in England." "You should have come with us, Aunt Birdie." "It's a lovely night." " Were you gracious to Mr. Marshall?" " I think so, Mama." "Good." "Now I have news for you." "You're going to Baltimore in the morning to bring your father home." "Oh, Mama!" "Addie, Papa's coming back." "We're going to bring him home." "You're going alone, Alexandra." "Going alone?" "A child that age?" "Mr. Horace ain't gonna like Miss Zan traipsing..." "Go upstairs and lay out Miss Alexandra's things." "I'll attend to your railroad ticket." "He'd expect me to be along." "I'll be up in a minute to tell you what to pack!" "Good night." "Have a nice trip." " I could go with her." " No, Birdie." "She's old enough to assume some responsibility." "Better learn now." "Almost old enough to get married." " Eh, son?" " Huh?" "Old enough to get married, you're thinking, huh?" "Yes, sir." "Lots of girls get married at Zan's age." "Look at Mary Prester and Johanna." "Alexandra is not getting married tomorrow... but she is going to Baltimore." "So let's talk about that." "I should think you'd like to go." "At your age, I would have been delighted." "Addie has babied you too much." "I wanted to go before, Mama... but you said you couldn't go and that I couldn't go alone." "I've changed my mind." "I must help Addie get your things together." "Why don't you all go home?" "Good night." " Don't be long, Zan." " Come along." "Imagine not wanting to go." "Wish it was me." "What I could do in a place like Baltimore." "I can guess the kind of things you could do." "No, you couldn't." "Oscar, don't be so glum." "You're getting to look as if your shoes were always pinching." " I must..." " I can take care of myself." "That's not what I'm worried about." "It's about Leo." "He's my own son, but you're more to me than my own child." " What's the matter?" " You're not going to marry Leo." " Marry Leo?" " I couldn't stand to think of it." "Don't you understand?" "They'll make you." "That's foolish." "I'm grown up." "Nobody can make me do anything." "I'm waiting for you." "Good night, Aunt Birdie." "Good night, Uncle Oscar." "What happened, Aunt Birdie?" "Nothing, darling." "Nothing happened." "You go to bed." "I only twisted my ankle." "I'm coming, Mama." "And don't forget about brushing your hair:" "Fifty strokes in the morning, a hundred at night." " Mm-hmm." " And don't use no store soap." " Just use the soap I made you." " Uh-huh." "Don't "uh-huh" me." "Are you listening?" " Yes." " Good morning." "That Hannah Francis is sure an ugly little girl, just like her ma." "There's smelling salts and perfumed water in the little satchel." "Keep your gloves on so your hands don't get dirty." "And don't talk to nobody on the train, and don't get off more than you have to." "Just sit still like a lady." "Stop at Mrs. Hewitt's a minute." "I want to ask about my new dress." " We ain't got no time to be stopping." " Got plenty of time." "David!" "Good morning." "Where are you going?" "To Baltimore all by myself to bring Papa home." " I'll be gone a whole week maybe." " Good for you." "Is that all you can say?" "What do you want me to say?" "At least say you're sorry you can't go to the depot with me." " Just getting up at 11:00." " Morning, Zan." "He's just going to bed." "He's been writing all night." "Writing things to put in the newspaper?" "He says he's writing things they won't put... in the newspaper." " I'm coming to the depot to see you off." " No, you ain't dressed." " That's right." " Cal, get this carriage going." "Get out of here!" "Get going!" "Hurry up!" "Shoo!" "Don't you just keep sitting there." "Get off at stations." "Take a walk around." "Talk to people." " I told her not to talk to nobody." " You'll talk to people." "Go to the coaches." "Talk to everybody." "It'll do you good." " 'Board!" " Bye, Addie." " Bye." "Take good care of yourself." " You, sir." " Bring your papa home safe and sound." " Would you mind sitting in this seat?" " Take good care of yourself." " Sit here, please." "Right here." "Thank you." "Now, talk to him." "He looks nice." "Find out what he thinks, where he comes from." " Find out everything you can." " 'Board!" " I just found out one thing." " Good-bye." " I'm going to miss you, David." " What?" "I said I'm going to miss you." " What?" " I said I..." "Nothing!" "Hello." "In there." "In the room next to Miss Regina's." " All right." " And hurry up!" "Walk it slow, Ezra." " Where will I put these books?" " Put them on that table." "Yes, ma'am." " Put that by the fireplace." " Yes, ma'am." "Mr. Horace sure gonna like being moved back in his old room." "That's all." "Get back to work." " Bring me Mr. Horace's green lamp." " Yes." "There's the carriage!" " They're here!" " Don't get so excited." "Go and help with the bags." " They ain't on the train." " What?" "My goodness!" " They ain't on the train!" " What do you mean?" " Cal, what happened?" " They ain't on the train." " They must have been." " They wasn't." "I looked and I looked." "I even asked Mr. Jonsie." "He say they didn't get on at Mobile at all." " What you think happened?" " How should I know?" "Probably nothing." "Don't ask me questions the rest of the night!" "Go get that green lamp." "Go on." " Evening, Regina." " Good evening, Ben." "You dropping in for supper?" "They didn't come on the 6:00." "There's no other train tonight." " What do you think happened?" " They probably stopped off somewhere." "They'll be along." "Put that on Mr. Horace's desk." "So you're moving Horace back to his old room." " You're a smart woman." " Where would they stop off?" "Horace has got that cousin in Savannah he's so fond of." "Maybe they stopped off to see him." "I don't know where they stopped off." "How do you know they even started from Baltimore?" "Of course they started." "I have a letter from Alexandra." "What is so strange about people arriving late?" "Don't worry so much." "I'm a natural worrier... especially when I'm ready to close a business deal... and one of my partners remains silent and invisible." "They'll be along tomorrow." "You boys might as well go home now." "Good night." "That cousin of Horace's has been dead for years." "And anyway, the train doesn't go through Savannah." "Did he die?" "Ben, you're always remembering about people dying." " It's so bad for your health." " Good night." "My father's tired." "We must stay overnight so he can rest." " He'll need a room on this floor." " All the rooms on this floor are taken." "Then you'll have to move somebody it won't hurt to climb stairs." "You'll have to do it right away." "My father must have rest and quiet." "Come help my father out of the carriage, please." "My, she's turning out to be her mother's daughter." "You'd better move that Mr. Clark from 105." "Put him on the third floor." "Mr. Dawson, where's the Tom Bixby Commission meeting tonight?" "Room A, 9:00." "Think they'll let you in?" "I think so." " Be sure that his soup is very hot." " Yes, ma'am." "And for dessert he can have fresh fruit..." " but it's got to be perfectly fresh." " Yes, ma'am." "I think that's all he'll want." "I'll want a lot." "I'm very hungry." " I think I'll have the whole dinner." " Yes, ma'am." " And..." " And mocha cake." "Excuse me." "Hello." "How are you?" "How's your father?" "Come here a minute." "This is Miss Julia Jordan." "Miss Alexandra Giddens." "I'm mighty glad to meet you." "Forgive Miss Giddens." "It's not entirely her fault." "She comes from a bad-mannered family." "Did you order dinner?" "Yes, Papa." "It will be right along." " How do you feel?" " Much better, dear." "What's the matter?" "Nothing, Papa." "You remember David Hewitt?" "Of course I remember him." "How is he?" "He's changed." "After all his working up north and wandering around the country... coming back and talking about people's rights... and how everybody ought to be decent." "Now for all his fine talk, he's out there in the dining room... with one of those girls." "One of what girls?" "She's got powder on her nose." "And he's with her." "And does it concern you?" "Of course it doesn't." " You can just bet it doesn't." " Then why not forget about him?" "I did go for some walks with him and three picnics." "Really three and a half." "Halftime it rained and..." "I tried to understand the fine things he was talking about." "Then he dared to introduce her to me!" "Did he?" "I didn't say a word to her." "I just looked." "Then I walked away." "Did you?" "That was very virtuous of you." "Wasn't that right, Papa?" "Who's been teaching you to hurt the feelings of other people?" "I didn't think about it that way." "What should I do, Papa?" "You'll have to decide for yourself." "So I want to ask your pardon." "I don't ever want to hurt anybody's feelings." "If you'll be gracious enough to forgive my rudeness and shake my hand..." "Then you'll show me that your manners are far better than mine could ever be." "Thank you." "That's real friendly of you." "I thank you too." "Come on." "I'll take you back to your father." "Excuse me, Julia." "You look tired." "Was it a hard trip?" "You going back on the early morning train?" "I'll be on it." "Maybe I can help." "Thank you very much." " May I come in and pay my respects?" " Papa must rest tonight." "That was a mighty sweet thing you did just now." "I still don't approve of your conduct." "Very well." "I'll make a note of it." "Go back and tell your friend to wash her face." " Morning, Papa." " You just getting up?" " What kind of working hours you keeping?" " My, you're nervous this morning." "Nervous about Uncle Horace not coming home, I guess." "I've told you before, you've got to start working harder at the bank." "Got to convince Uncle Horace you'll make a fit husband for Alexandra." "Yes, sir." "You think Uncle Horace don't want to go in on this?" "That's my hunch." "Ain't showing signs of loving it yet." "But he hasn't listened to Aunt Regina yet either." "He'll go along." "It's too good a thing." "He's got plenty and plenty to invest with." "He don't even have to sell anything." "Ninety thousand worth of Union Pacific bonds... sitting right in his safe-deposit box." "All he's got to do is open the box." "Yeah." "He's had those bonds for 15 years." "Bought them when they were low and just locked them up." "Yeah, he just has to open the box and take them out." "That's all." "Easy as easy can be." "The things in that box." "There's all those bonds looking mighty fine." "Then right next to them is a baby shoe of Zan's... and a cheap old cameo on a string." "And nobody would believe this:" "A piece of an old violin." "Not even a whole violin, just a piece of an old thing." "A piece of a violin." " What do you think of that?" " Yes, sir." "And a lot of other crazy things too." "A poem I guess it is, signed with his mother's name." "How do you know what's in the box, son?" "It was one of the boys at the bank." "He took old Manders' keys." "It was Joe Horn." "He just took old Manders' keys and took the box out." "Then they asked me if I wanted to see too, so I looked a little." "But I made them close the box, and I told them..." "Joe Horn, you say?" "He opened it?" "Yes, sir, he did." "My word of honor." "That don't excuse me for looking, but I did make him close it... and put the keys back in Manders' drawer." "Tell me the truth." "I'm not gonna be angry with you." " Did you open the box yourself?" " No, sir, I didn't." "Sometimes a young fellow deserves credit for looking around him... see what's going on." "Many great men have made their fortune with their eyes." "Did you open the box?" "It may have been a good thing if you had." "Did you?" "I opened it." "Does anybody else know you opened it?" "Don't be afraid of speaking the truth." " Nobody was in the bank when I did it." " Will Horace know you opened it?" "He only looks in it once every six months when he cuts a coupon." "Sometimes Manders even does that for him." "Uncle Horace don't even have the keys." "Manders keeps them for him." "Imagine not looking at all that." "You can bet if I had those bonds, I'd watch them like..." "If you had them, you could have a share in the mill." "You and me." "A fine big share too." "A man can't be shot for wanting to see his son get on in the world." " Can he, boy?" " No, he can't." "But I haven't got the bonds and Uncle Horace has." "You think your Uncle Horace likes you well enough... to lend you the bonds if he decides not to use them himself?" "Papa, it must be you gone crazy." "Lend me the bonds?" "No, I suppose not." "Just a fancy of mine." "A loan for three months, maybe four." "Easy enough for us to pay it back then." "Anyway, this is only April." "If he doesn't look at the bonds till fall... he wouldn't even miss them out of the box." "That's it." "He wouldn't even miss them." "How could he miss them if he never looks at them?" "You laugh when I say he could lend you the bonds... if he's not gonna use them." "But would it hurt him?" "It wouldn't hurt him." "People ought to help other people." "So she got him home at last." "Careful, Addie." " They're here." " Yes, Belle." " Tidy up the room." " Yes, ma'am." "And me sitting up all night worrying about you." "We don't want to hear how worried you've been." "We had to stay in Mobile overnight for Papa to rest." " Upstairs?" " No, I'll wait, David." "I'll rest here for a minute." "Thank you." "Thank you for coming with us." "I like talking to you." " In fact, I like you." "I always have." " Thank you, sir." " Do you like me?" " Not today." "I'll come back tomorrow." "Good-bye, sir." "Good-bye, David." "Remember me to your mother." "I will." "Good-bye, funny." "I bet Mama's been worried." " I better tell her we're back." " Not for a minute." "You feel bad again." "I knew you did." " Do you want your medicine?" " I don't feel that way." "I just wanted to rest a little." " Them fancy doctors do you any good?" " They did their best." "This is Father's very special medicine." "We'll keep one bottle down here and one in his room." "He must have the pills every four hours." "And the special medicine, only if he feels very bad." "Careful." "Since when I ain't old enough to hold a bottle of medicine?" "You feel all right?" "He says he does, but he doesn't." "The trip was very hard on him." "He's got to go right to bed." "Help me." "No, I don't need that much help." "Addie, is your coffee as good as it used to be?" "Dr. Boden said not much coffee." "Just now and then." "Do you hear me?" "I'm the nurse now." "You'd be a better one if you didn't look so dirty." "Take a bath, change your linens, get on a fresh dress and brush your hair good." "Will you be all right?" "I'll look after Mr. Horace." "Ring for Belle and have her help you." " Hurry." " Yes, ma'am." "My old room." "I haven't slept here since..." "Since a mighty long time." "Before I see anybody else..." "Thank you, Addie." " I want to know why Zan came for me." " I don't know." "All I know is big things is going on." "Everybody gonna be high-tone rich." "You too." "All 'cause smoke gonna start from a building that ain't even up yet." "I've heard about that." "And Miss Zannie, she's gonna marry Mr. Leo in a little while." " What are you talking about?" " That's right." "That's the talk." " What's the talk?" " There's gonna be a wedding." "Over my dead body there is." "Horace, you finally arrived." "All right, Addie." "I'm very happy to see you." " How are you?" " What happened to you and Alexandra?" "We stopped overnight in Mobile." "I didn't feel good." " Just a little weak, I suppose." " Here we are." "Been a long time." "You know how much I wanted to come to the hospital and be with you." "But I didn't know where my duty lay:" "Here or with you." "But you know how much I wanted to come." "That's kind of you." "There was no need to come." "I didn't have a bad time." "Maybe at first when the doctors told me, but after I got used to the idea..." "I sort of liked it there." "You're looking very well, very handsome." "You liked it there." "Isn't it strange you liked it so well you didn't want to come home?" "That's not the way to put it." "But I did like lying there and thinking." "I never had much time to think." "Time's become valuable to me." " It sounds almost like a holiday." " It was, sort of." " I was thinking you were in pain." " I was in pain." "Instead you were having a holiday of thinking." " I was thinking about us." " About us?" "About you and me after all these years?" "You shall tell me everything you thought, someday." "What's this crazy talk about Zan and Leo marrying?" "Who gossips so much around here?" "It's some foolishness Oscar thought up." "I'll explain later." "It was simply a way of keeping him quiet... in all this business I've been writing you about." "I have no intention of allowing any such arrangement." "Neither have I, so put it out of Oscar's head immediately." " You know what I think of Leo." " There's no need to talk about it now." "There's no need to talk about it ever." "Not as long as I live." "I suppose they've written you." "I can't live very long." "I have never understood why people have to talk about this kind of thing!" "You must understand." "I don't intend to gossip about my sickness." "I thought it was only fair to tell you." "I was not asking for your sympathy." "Let's try to get along a little better than we usually do." "Yes." "It's foolish for us to fight this way." "I didn't mean to be unpleasant." "It was very stupid of me." "I didn't either." "I came home wanting so much not to fight." "Yes, let's try to get along better." "I want to very much." "Can we pay our respects?" "Yes, you can pay your respects, as you say." "So the fugitives have arrived at last." "Welcome home, Horace." "You had us all mighty worried." " Hello, Ben, Oscar." " It sure is good to see you." " You're looking tip-top." "Yes, sir." " Am I?" "Everybody in town's been asking for you." "But then you only know how folks really feel through an absence." " Ain't that true?" " I hope so." "Horace!" "I just found out you were back." "You don't look well." "No, you don't." " What a thing to say." " Oscar thinks I look tip-top." "What is that costume you have on?" "Now that you're home, you'll feel better." "We'll take fine care of you." "I asked what is that strange costume you're parading around in?" "Me?" "Oh, it's my wrapper." "I was so excited about Horace..." "Did you come across the street dressed that way?" "My dear Birdie!" "Just like old times." " No fights." "This is a holiday." " I'll go right home." "You'll be running back across the square like that." "I'm sorry, Oscar." "We've been having some mighty fine weather." "Yes, sir." "You'll enjoy the good sunshine and fresh air..." "I don't like to worry you when you're tired... but Ben has some very important business to talk over with you." " Tomorrow." " I'd like to now." "It's very important to me, very important to all of us." "Important to your beloved daughter." "She'll be a very great heiress." " Will she?" "That's nice." " Please." "You said we'll try to get along better." "I'll try, I really will, only please do this for me now." "You'll see what I've done for you while you've been away." "Ben, tell Horace all about it, only be quick because he's very tired... and he must go to bed." "See how I've watched your interests." "I think that your news will be better for him... than all the doctors and medicine in the world." "I hope so, but my news can wait." "Horace may not feel like talking today." "What an old faker you are." "You know it can't wait." "You know the deal must be closed this week." "You've been as anxious for him to come home as I've been." "I suppose I have been." "And why not?" "Horace has done Hubbard Sons many a good turn." "Why shouldn't I be anxious to help him now?" "Help him when you need him." "That's what you mean." "What a woman you married, Horace." "Then I'll make it quick." "For 30 years I've cried..." ""Bring the cotton mills to the cotton. "" "I'm here to tell you they're on their way." " Get..." " Can I get you something?" "Water." "I'm sorry." "I will." "You must excuse me now." "I'm feeling the trip." " Would you ask Cal to come help me?" " Yes." "But the deal is coming to a close, and Ben must move quickly." " I understand." " If you could listen a few minutes... then I'll take care of everything for you." " Not today." "Some other time." " This is important to all of us." "Can't you see we've been waiting for months for you to come home and..." "I can see that you did want me to come home." "We'll just run along home now." "We can talk about this tomorrow." "Come along, Oscar." "I didn't mean that was the reason why..." "I think you did mean it, and that makes me very sad." "You think maybe he don't want to go in with us?" "It was a mistake to talk to him today." "He's a sick man, but he ain't a crazy one." "Suppose he is crazy." "What then?" "Then we'll go outside for the money." " There's plenty who'll give it." " They'll want a lot for what they give." "Ones that are rich enough to give will be smart enough to want." "That means we'd be working for them." "You don't have to tell me the things I told you six months ago." "Regina, you're a fool." "Mama told you it's unwise for a good-looking woman to frown." "I told you softness and a smile will do more to the hearts of men." "I'll do things in my own way." "I know what I'm doing." "I hope you do." "There is nothing to worry about." "Come along, Oscar." "Oh, Lord" "Sound the trump of thejudgment" "Hallelujah" "White people may have the pianos... but the colored folks have got the voices." " Weary arms are toting'ol'cotton" " Give me a push." " Good night." "We had a lovely evening." " Thank you." " We had such a good time." " Good night, Sally." " It's good to see Horace again." " I'm sorry he had to go up so early." "He has to be careful till he gets his strength back." "Yes, of course." "Good night." "Good night." " Tell Horace I'll see him tomorrow." " Yes, I will." "Good night." "I'll be along in a minute." "Leo, take your mama home." " Can't I wait for you and Uncle Ben?" " No, run along." " I'll be back." " Never mind." "Go on." "Come along, Mama." "Good night, Aunt Regina." "Didn't you two notice that the party is over?" " We got a little talking to do." " Not much, just a simple question." " Have you got any news for us?" " Not yet, but I've talked to Horace." "I imagined you had, Regina." "I didn't want to hurry him too much." "You saw what happened that first day." "There's got to be a little hurrying done." "I had a rather urgent letter from Marshall this morning." "This thing's got to be closed the end of the week." "That means Oscar's got to leave for Chicago tomorrow." "It turns out we're in more of a hurry than you thought we were." "We got to know tonight whether you and Horace are coming in with us." "That was the time I was working in the..." " It's time you were coming in." " Not yet, Mama." "I'm talking to David." "When you've finished your talking, come straight to bed." "Yes, Mama." " Good night, David." " Good night, Mrs. Giddens." "That's the first time I ever heard your mother tell you to do something... and you didn't hop to do it." "That's a funny thing to say." "You know, you take one step and then you take another." "After a while, you find out you're walking all by yourself." "You don't understand what I'm talking about, do you?" "An awful lot of things I don't understand lately." "Things that are happening here." "I could explain them to you, but you wouldn't like me if I did." "You've got to find them out for yourself." "You'll know tonight." "Let's walk around the square." "Come on." "This cannot wait any longer." "Talk to us about it now." " I've been patient for days." " And persistent." "All right." "I understand we're getting a larger share." "Why?" "Because I did a little bargaining for you." "Convinced my brothers they weren't the only Hubbards with business sense." "Did you have to convince them of that?" "How little people know about each other." "You'll know better about Regina next time, Ben." "Yes." " Who's getting less?" " Oscar." "Oscar's gotten unselfish." "What's happened to you?" "I'll get mine in the end." "He's got his son's future to think about." "Leo." "Everybody will get theirs." "I'm beginning to understand." "I knew you would as soon as you had time to think it over." "Yes, sir, Horace, this 75,000 will get you a million." "Yes, Horace, it will!" "What did you have to promise Marshall besides your money?" "Water power, free and plenty of it." " You have that?" " Easy." "You'd think the governor of a great state would make his price higher... just out of pride." "And cheap labor." ""The wages has got to be cheaper than Massachusetts," Marshall says." "And that averages eight a week." "You bought the water from the governor." "It was his to sell?" "Go on, Ben." ""Eight a week?" I say to Marshall." ""I'd work for eight a week myself. "" "There ain't a man in this section, black or white... who wouldn't give his right arm for three silver dollars every week." "They'll take less than that when you play them off against each other." "Your father said he made the thousands..." " and you boys would make the millions." " Millions for us too." "Us?" "You and me?" "I don't think so." "You've got enough money, Regina." "We'll just sit by and watch the boys grow rich." "Then this means you're finally turning us down?" "Is it possible that's what you mean?" "I don't want any part of it." "I've been trying to tell you that." " I want to know your reasons." " I don't know myself." "Leave it at that." "We shall not leave it at that." "I want to know your reasons now." " We've been waiting like children..." " Yes, to nag at me to invest my money." "If you're disappointed, I'm sorry." "But I must do what I think best." "Now, good night." "Please wait downstairs." " Oscar and I will go home now." " Please wait downstairs!" "There will be no more talking about this." "I'm sick and tired of hearing about it." "I've given my answer, and that is all." "I think we'll have to talk about it, Horace." "Just you and me." "I never did believe he was going in with us." "I thought he'd go in." "What do you expect me to do?" "Nothing." "You done your almighty best." "There's nothing you can do." "Maybe there's something I could do for us." "Or, I might better say, Leo could do for us." " Ain't that true, son?" " What do you mean?" "Leo's got a friend." "Leo's friend owns $90,000 worth of Union Pacific bonds." "Leo's friend don't look at the bonds much... not for five or six months at a time." "Union Pacific." "Let me understand this." "Leo's friend would lend him the bonds, and he would..." "Would be kind enough to lend them to us." " Leo." " Yes, sir?" " When would your friend want them back?" " I don't know." "You told me he won't look at them till fall." "That's right, but I..." "Not till fall." " But Uncle Horace..." " Be still." "Your uncle doesn't wish to know your friend's name." "That's a good one." "Not know his name?" "Shut up, Leo." "He won't look at them till September." "That gives us five months." "Leo will return the bonds in three months." "We'll have no trouble raising the money once the mills start going up." "Will Marshall accept bonds?" "Why not?" "We're lucky, Oscar." "We'll take the loan from Leo's friend." "I think he'll make a safer partner than our sister." "How soon do you think you can borrow them?" "Right away, tonight." "They're in the safe-deposit box..." "I don't want to know where they are." "We'll keep it secret from you, Ben." "Good night, Oscar." " Good luck to us." " Leo will be taken care of?" "I'm entitled to Uncle Horace's share." "Gee, that would make me a partner." ""Partner"?" "Why, you..." "He didn't mean it." "I want to be sure he'll get something out of this." "We'll take care of him." "We'll arrange that later." "Then that's settled." "Come on, son." "I didn't mean just that." "I was only gonna say..." "Go on." "You have work to do." "Good night, David." " Good night, Zannie." " Good night, David." "Hello, Zannie." " Won't you leave me alone?" " I won't let you alone!" " If I'd let you alone, you'd still be..." " Uncle Ben, make Mama stop." "She can't do that to Papa." "It isn't right." " Alexandra, you have a tender heart." " If you won't do anything about it..." "I will!" "Now, you see?" "It's all over." "Don't worry so, my dear." "Married folks frequently raise their voices, unfortunately." "How can you treat Papa like this?" "He's very sick." "Don't you know that?" " Mind your business." " This is my business." " It's my business to stop what's wrong." " Don't you dare speak to me like this!" " Go to bed!" " Yes, Mama." "You'll have to put Marshall off for a few days." "I'm afraid I can't do that for you." "I told you his letter was urgent." "How much more time can you give me?" " Horace has refused." " He'll change his mind." "I'll find a way to make him." "How much longer can you wait?" "I could wait a few days, but I can't wait a few days." "I could, but I can't." "Could and can't." "I have to go now." "I'm very late." "You're not going." "I want to talk to you." "I forgot to tell you." "Oscar's going to Chicago tomorrow as we planned... so we can't be here for our usual Friday night supper." "Oscar's..." "What do you mean?" "Just that." "He's going to deliver the money to Marshall." "You're lying." "You're trying to scare me." "You haven't got the money." "How can you have it?" "How can he go to Chicago?" "Did a ghost arrive with the money?" "I don't believe you." " Come back here." "I want to talk to you." " You're getting out of hand." "Since when do I take orders from you?" "Come back!" "Good night." "It's a great day when you and Ben cross swords." "I've been waiting for it for years." "So they found out they don't need you." "So you'll not have your millions after all." "You hate to see anybody live now, don't you?" "You hate to think I'll be alive and have what I want." " You'd think that was my reason." " Yes." "Because you're going to die and you know you're going to die." "Maybe it's easier for the dying to be honest." "I'm sick of you!" "Sick of this house, sick of my unhappy life with you." "I'm sick of your brothers and their dirty tricks to make a dime!" "There must be better ways of getting rich than building sweatshops... and pounding the bones of the town to make dividends for you to spend." "You'll wreck the town, you and your brothers." "You'll wreck the country, you and your kind, if they let you." "But not me." "I'll die my own way." "I'll do it without making the world any worse." "I'll leave that to you." "I hope you die." "I hope you die soon." " Mama, don't!" " I'll be waiting for you to die." "Don't!" "Papa, don't listen." "Please just don't listen!" "Go away." "Thank you, Birdie." "That was nice." "I hope I didn't disturb Regina." "I should have thought to ask." "Miss Regina ain't home." "I'd have told you." "She's at Mrs. Hewitt's getting a dress fitted." "Thank you, Addie." "Horace, look." "Simon brought me these from Lionnet." "Oscar was out there shooting this morning." "Simon says they're just growing wild there now." "Coming, Addie." "Why don't you pick some?" "I don't like crab apples." "You're getting too old to be climbing trees." " Why?" " Your petticoats are showing." " David Hewitt." " Or should I say "underskirts. "" " You certainly should." " Under any name, they're still showing." "If you'd lift me down instead of sitting there, you wouldn't see them." "Hello." "You might at least help me pick some up." "Somebody must be gonna make some mighty fine jelly." "That's right, Simon." "I'll bet Simon was sorry to see your Uncle Oscar come back from Chicago." "Oscar hasn't been over to our house since he got back." "He or Uncle Ben." "Not since that night." "I don't like to think about it." "I try not to all the time." " You never like to think about things." " There you go again." "Always want somebody else to do your thinking for you." "I'm tired of having you say that!" "It just isn't true." "What do you want me to do?" "I think I want you to go away from here." ""Go away"?" "Are you crazy?" "What would I do?" "Where would I go?" "I think you're just trying not to see me anymore." " You do?" " Yes, I do." "But you don't have to try, whether I'm here or not." "I'll tell you what you could do if you went away." "If you can find someplace where they pay wages for talking silly... you could make a fortune." " Addie, a party!" "What for?" " Nothing." "I had the sweet butter, so I made the cakes." "Isn't this nice?" "A party just for us." " Is Mama..." " No, she ain't got back yet." " Sit down, David." " Not by me." "I'm not speaking to him." "He's too dull." "He's always preaching." " It doesn't affect your appetite." " It doesn't affect me in any way." " I just ignore him." " Don't be bad friends." "It's so nice here with just us." " There, David, that's for you." " Thank you." " Elderberry's good for the stomach." " That's what Mama used to say." "Mama used to give it to me when I was a little girl... for hiccups." "I don't think people get hiccups anymore." " Isn't that funny?" " And nobody gets growing pains no more." "Just like there was some style in what you got." "One year an ailment's stylish, and the next year it ain't." "Miss Birdie, that elderberry wine is gonna give you a headache spell." "I don't think so." "I remember now about the hiccups." "It was my first big party, at Lionnet." "There I was with hiccups, and Mama laughing." "Mama always laughed." "A big party, a lovely dress from Mr. Worth in Paris, France... and hiccups." "You know, that was the first day I saw Oscar Hubbard." "We saw him from our window." "He passed and lifted his hat." "And my brother, to tease Mama, said Mama didn't like the Hubbards... and wouldn't invite them to the party because they kept a store." "Then I saw Mama angry for the first time in my life." "She said that wasn't the reason." "She said she just didn't like people who made their money... charging awful interest to poor, ignorant colored folks... and cheating them on what they bought." "Mama was very angry." "Then suddenly she laughed and said..." ""Look, I've frightened Birdie out of her hiccups. "" "And so she had." "They were all gone." "Yes, they got mighty well-off cheating the poor." "There's people that eats up the whole Earth and all the people on it... like in the Bible with the locust." "Then there's people that stand around and watch them do it." "Sometimes I think it ain't right to just stand and watch." "There's something else in the Bible, Addie." ""Take us the foxes... the little foxes that spoil the vines... for our vines have tender grapes. "" "If we could only go back to Lionnet." "Everybody would be better there." "They'd be good and kind." "I like people to be kind." "Don't you like people to be kind?" " Yes, I do." " Yes." "That was the first day I ever saw Oscar." "Who would have thought..." "Do you want to know something?" "I don't like Leo." "My very own son, and I don't like him." "Isn't that funny?" "I guess I even like Oscar more than I like Leo." "Why did you marry Uncle Oscar?" "That's no question for you to ask." "Why not?" "It's time she was asking questions." "She's heard enough around here to ask anything." " Why did you, Aunt Birdie?" " I don't know." "I thought I liked him, and he was so kind to me then." "I thought it was because he liked me too." "But that wasn't the reason." "Ask why he married me." "I can tell you that!" " He's told me often enough." " Miss Birdie, don't." "My family was good, but the cotton on Lionnet's fields was better." "Ben Hubbard wanted the cotton, and Oscar Hubbard married it for him." "He was kind to me then." "He used to smile at me." "He hasn't smiled at me since." "Everybody knew that's what he married me for." "Everybody but me." "Stupid, stupid me." "You get talking like this, and you'll surely get a headache." "I've never had a headache in my life!" "You know it as well as I do." "I've never had a headache, Zan." "That's a lie they tell for me." "I drink." "All by myself in my own room, I drink." "And when they want to hide it, they say Birdie's got a headache again." " Aunt Birdie, don't." " You won't like me anymore." " I love you." "I'll always love you." " Don't!" "Don't love me!" "Because in 20 years, you'll just be like me." "They'll do all the same things to you... and you'll trail after them just like me... hoping they won't be so mean to you that day... or say something to make you feel so bad." "Only you'll be worse off... because you won't have my mama to remember." "Aunt Birdie, don't." "Come on now." "Let's go home, just you and me." "Poor Miss Birdie." " There you are, sir." " Thank you." "I sure is glad to see you back again, sir." " Thank you, Harold." " Glad to see you back with us again." " Thank you." "How's the family?" " Hello, Mr. Horace." " How are you feeling?" " Fine." "Hello, Mr. Horace." " How are you, Mr. Giddens?" " Sam." " Good to see you, sir." " Thank you." " Hello there, Leo." " Hello, Uncle Horace." " Glad to see you back again, sir." " Thank you." " Good to see you." " Thank you." "Goodness! "Good to see you." "Good to see you. "" "Don't nobody never think up no new words?" " All right." "Come along, son." " Yes, sir." "First time I seen anybody who wasn't anxious to grab my silver dollars." "Sam, I want to take a look at my will." "All right, sir." "Come on, son, count my money." "You're mighty careless with other people's money." " Count it." "I'm in a hurry." " Check this..." "Check this for me, Joe." "I've got to see my uncle a minute." "All right." "What's the matter with him?" "Yes, what is it?" "I want to see you a minute." "Yes?" "What about?" " It's about Bert Pembrook." " Yes?" "He's one of the standing renters over at..." "I know who Bert Pembrook is." "What about him?" "It's his note, sir." "I'm worried about it, Uncle Horace." "What's wrong with the note?" "Do you think the crop lien is sufficient collateral?" "All right, Sam, you can put it back." "I haven't been in the bank for months." "I don't know anything about Bert Pembrook's note." " What's wrong with it?" " Leo seems disturbed about it." "Oh, it's nothing." "I just thought..." "He doesn't think the crop lien is sufficient collateral." "We haven't got a crop lien, we've got a chattel mortgage." "Bert's made all the payments so far." "The note will be amortized in 60 days." "Yes, I..." "Oh, that's right." "So it will." "Leo's facts seem to be a trifle hazy." "It ain't the facts that are hazy." "It's Leo." "Sam, I forgot my insurance policies." "I want to take them with me." "When was the last time you opened this box?" "About three weeks ago to clip the coupons." " Why?" "Anything wrong?" " No, I..." "I thought there was a policy missing, but I found it." "I think I'll go home now, and I'll take the box with me." "All right, sir." "Good-bye." "Bye." "We hope to see you back again real soon." "It sure is good to see you." "Uncle Horace, forgot to ask you how you're feeling." "Much better." "Thank you for being so solicitous." "Don't you worry about the bank." "We'll keep everything in apple-pie order." "That's nice." "That Mr. Leo acting mighty sweet." "Like his mouth's filled with melting butter." "Yes." " Cal?" " Yes, sir?" " I want you to do something for me." " Yes, sir." "After you take me home, I want you to walk back to the bank." "I want you to give Mr. Manders a message for me." "Yes, sir." "Only I ain't much good at toting messages." "My memory kind of gets confused." "This is an easy one." "Only you've got to be sure to get it straight." "Listen carefully." "I want you to go to Mr. Manders, and I want you to say..." "Mr. Horace say for you to be taking the evening train for Mobile... and be toting back with you Judge Sol Fowler, his attorney at law..." " What's he want him now for?" " Is this message for you?" " Go on." " Now I got to be starting all over." "Mr. Horace say for you to be taking the evening train for Mobile... and be toting back with you Judge Sol Fowler, his attorney at law... and then you got to fetch him to our house tomorrow." " Did he say why?" " Is that all?" "Yes, sir, that's all." "Kind of short message, ain't it?" "Appears to me, if you got a message, it ought to have more words." "Mr. Manders, sir, there's something I got to do, something I forgot." " Sit down and finish your work." " But you don't understand." "Sit down!" " You can tell him I got his message." " Yes, sir." "Perhaps you're tired?" "Zan left me instructions not to get tired while she was out." " She's mighty firm with me." " Zan, firm?" " What do you feel about Zan anyway?" " What?" "I'm in love with her, I guess." "I mean, I'm not guessing." "I mean, I know I am." "I've never said those words before." "I didn't realize they'd be so hard to say." "Here's your old green lamp." "You don't gotta sit in the dark." "Do hurry, Mrs. Hewitt." "It's very tiresome standing so long." "Yes, I know it is." "I'm just finishing." "David is a constant visitor at our house." "Yes, he plays cribbage with Mr. Horace." "He likes Mr. Horace." "I hope you don't mind his running in and out." "I don't mind." "I've always tried not to interfere with Alexandra too much." "I didn't like people to interfere with me when I was young." "I still don't like them interfering." "I do think Alexandra is a little young to be courted by David." "I'm sure it's nothing like that." "Is that you, David?" " Yes, Mama." " Come in." " Good evening." " We were just talking about you." "Yes, I heard you." "I rather like you." "You've got spirit." "That's good in anyone." "I was telling your mother..." "I wouldn't like to think you were courting Alexandra." "I haven't been doing that." "I'm glad to hear that." "But, if and when I do, I shall not care whether you like it or not." "Don't worry about that." "Horace might see his lawyer about a lot of things." "Fowler's come down here a hundred times before." "But he comes in the bank today, and right after he sends for Fowler." "Nonsense." "Don't worry so much." "It's fine for you to tell me not to worry." "Always say to myself I don't like nervous people." "I can't trust them." "Leo, you're one of the people who bore me." "I'm getting too old to want to be bored." "I'm just getting so I hate it." "You take your nerves out of here and go upstairs and take a warm bath." "That will be good for you." "A nice warm bath." "We agreed you were to stay in your part of this house and I in mine." "This room is my part of the house." " Please don't come down again." " I won't." "I only came down this time to tell you that... we have invested our money in Hubbard Sons and Marshall Cotton Manufacturers." "What are you talking about?" "You haven't seen Ben." "When did you change your mind?" "I didn't change my mind." "I didn't invest the money." "It was invested for me." "What are you talking about?" "I had $90,000 worth of Union Pacific bonds in this box in the bank." "They're not there now." "Come and look." "Those bonds are negotiable as money, and they're gone." "Only $ 15,000 left." "$ 75,000 are gone." "What kind of a joke are you playing?" "Is this for my benefit?" "I don't look in that box very often." "Today, because I decided..." " What are you talking about?" " Don't interrupt me again." "Today, because I decided to do something, I opened the box and..." "Do you think I'm crazy enough to believe what you're saying?" "You don't believe me." "That's good." "For a minute, I thought perhaps you had taken them." ""Taken them"?" "Where are they?" "Where did they go?" "To Chicago." "I should guess that at this minute they're with Mr. Marshall." "I think Leo took the bonds." " I don't believe it." " This fine gentleman... to whom you were willing to marry your daughter... took the keys and opened the box." "I'm only guessing, but remember Oscar made a sudden departure for Chicago... after you and Ben had your great fight." "He took with him the bonds that his son had stolen for him." "And for Ben, too, of course." " This will make a fine little scandal." " Couldn't it?" "A fine scandal to hold over their heads." "How could they be such fools?" "But I'm not going to hold it over their heads." "What?" "I'm gonna let them keep the bonds, as a loan from you." "A loan, not an investment." "An investment would mean a share of the profits." "A loan is simply returned." "Oh, I see." "You're punishing me." "I won't let you punish me." "If you won't do anything about it, I will." "You won't do anything because you can't." "You can't make trouble." "I shall say and go on saying I lent them the bonds." "You would do that?" "Yes." "For once in your life, I'm tying your hands." "There's nothing for you to do." "Why did you say I was making this loan?" "I'm making a new will... leaving you exactly $ 75,000 in Union Pacific bonds." "The rest, and my insurance, will go to Zan." "In the meantime, Ben and Oscar will have returned the bonds, I'm sure, and be very grateful to you." "And that will be the end of that." "There's nothing you can do to them and nothing you can do to me." "You must hate me very much." "No, I don't hate you." "Perhaps because I remember how much I was in love with you." "I don't hate you either." "I've only contempt for you." "I've always had." "Why did you marry me?" "Because I was lonely when I was young." "Yes, lonely." "Not in the way people usually mean." "I was lonely for all the things I wasn't gonna get." "Everybody was so busy at home, and so little place for what I wanted." "Then Papa died and left Ben and Oscar all the money." " So you married me." " Yes." "I thought you'd get the world for me." "You were a small-town clerk then." "You haven't changed." " And that wasn't what you wanted." " No, it wasn't." "It wasn't what I wanted." "But it didn't take me long to find out my mistake." "Then it was just as if I couldn't stand the sight of you." "I couldn't bear to have you touch me." "I thought you were such a soft, weak fool." "You were so kind and understanding when I didn't want you near me." "The lies and excuses I used to make to you." "And you believed them." "That was when I began to despise you." "Why didn't you leave me?" "Where was I to go?" "What money did I have?" "I didn't think about it much." "If I had, I'd have known you'd die before I did." "But I couldn't have guessed you'd get heart trouble so early, so bad." "I'm lucky." "I've always been lucky." "I'll be lucky again." "The other bottle." "Please." "Upstairs in my room in the drawer." "Upstairs, quick." "Addie, quick." "Addie, Cal, come here!" "My goodness, what's the matter?" "Get his legs, Belle." "His special medicine!" "I'll get it!" "Cal, bring him in this room here." "Lay him down flat." "I'll take off his shoes." " Go get Dr. Sloan." "Hurry." " Yes, ma'am." "Here." "I'll get some ice." "Hold his mouth." " What's wrong?" " Now, don't you fret, honey." "Papa!" "Aunt Regina!" "I just heard about Uncle Horace." "How is he?" " Dr. Sloan's in there now." " Is there anything I can do?" "You can keep quiet, that's what you can do." " Dr. Sloan." " Zan, I'm gonna tell you the truth." "It's just a matter of a little while." "Yes, Doctor." "We just heard down at the store." "How is he now?" "I don't know." "Dr. Sloan's with him." "They don't want you to do anything." " Is it a bad attack?" " Addie didn't say." " I wonder if we should go up?" " I think we better wait here." "Did you talk to Sloan?" "Leo, is that Horace's deposit box?" "Why..." "How can it be?" "If it is, what's it doing here?" " You said you saw Manders put it away." " I did see him put it away." "I was there." "Stop jabbering and tell me is that the same box?" "Of course it's the same box, but how did it get here?" " That means he knows." " Put that down." "Are you gonna eat it?" " I'll take it back to the bank." " Don't touch it again, you fool." "I'm a fool?" "Didn't I tell you he'd sent for Judge Fowler?" "And didn't you have me take a warm bath?" "Yes, I am a fool." "I do all the dirty work." " I'm remembering that." " What do you mean?" "Shut him up or I'll show you what I mean." " But, Papa..." " Shut up." "Listen to me." "Maybe he's told Regina." " Maybe..." " Yes, maybe, and maybe he hasn't." "They weren't on such pretty terms." "If she don't know about it, it may work out all right." "If she does know, you're to say he lent you the bonds." "Lent me the bonds?" "Who's gonna believe that?" " Nobody." " Why should I say he lent them to me?" "Why not to you?" "Why not to Uncle Ben?" "Because he didn't lend them to me." "Remember that." "But..." "How is he?" " He's unconscious." " Is there anything we can do?" "He's come through these attacks before." "He'll come through this one." "We haven't seen each other since the day of our fight." "Remember how we used to fight when we were kids?" "Trouble brings us together." "Does Sloan want another doctor?" "We could drive over for Dr. Morris." "Thank you, but..." " You don't feel well." " No, I don't." "Horace told me about the bonds this afternoon." " The bonds?" "What do you mean?" " What bonds?" "Horace's Union Pacific bonds?" "Yes." "What about them?" "What could he say?" "He said Leo had stolen them and given them to you." " That's ridiculous!" " I don't know what you're talking about." "Isn't it enough that he stole them?" "Do I have to listen to this too?" " I didn't steal anything." " Ben, please ask them to stop this." "Aren't we starting at the wrong end?" "What did Horace tell you?" "He told me that Leo had stolen the bonds." "I didn't..." "Then he said he was going to pretend he had lent them to you... as a present from me to my brothers." "He said there was nothing I could do about it because as long as he lived... he would insist he had lent them to you." "I told you he lent them." "I could've told you." "He said he was leaving the rest of the money to Alexandra." "So I'm very badly off, you see." "Now, you mustn't feel that way." "It can all be explained." "It can all be adjusted." "Things aren't as bad as you seem..." "So you at least are willing to admit the bonds were stolen." "I admit no such thing." "It's possible Horace made up that part about stealing to tease you... or perhaps to punish you." "It's not a pleasant story." "I feel bad." "Now you shall have the bonds safely back." " That was the understanding." " Yes." "I'm glad to hear that." "I had greater hopes." "Remember the night we made all the wishes?" "Now you mustn't talk that way." "That's foolish." "I think we ought to drive over for Morris." "Two doctors are better than one." "Don't think I'm dismissing this other business." "I'm not." "We'll have it all out on a more appropriate day." "I don't think you'd better go yet." " Come back and sit down." " We'll be right back." "I have something more to say." "I've told you before:" "You'll get further with a smile." "I'm a soft man for a woman's smile." "I'm smiling, Ben." "I'm smiling because you are perfectly safe... while Horace lives to say he lent you the bonds." "But Dr. Sloan doesn't think Horace is gonna live." "And if he doesn't, I want 75 percent of the business... in exchange for the bonds." "Greedy." "What a greedy girl you are." "You want so much of everything." "Get those bays hitched up." "I'll drive over there myself." "I'll have that doctor here in no time." "Regina, you tell Sloan that we're bringing Dr. Morris." "Yes, Ben, I'll tell him." "Make some fresh coffee." "You run over to Mrs. Sloan's and get another hypodermic needle." "He's just the same." "Zan's all right." "She's being fine." "I told her you was here, and she said for you to go home and get your supper." "Go on now." "You don't sit still good." "Lots of people don't." "All right." "I'll be back later." " Can I go with you, Uncle Ben?" " You stay right here." "You drive to Dr. Morris' in Centerville as fast as you can." "Leo, did you speak to the doctor?" "What did he say?" "Why's everybody getting so excited?" "Uncle Horace isn't all that sick." "He's had these attacks before." "He'll get over it." " I just asked what the doctor said." " What do you care?" "What's it to you?" "Why are you here anyway?" "Showing off your grief?" "I happen to like Mr. Horace." "Good night." "Yes, you happen to like him, and he happens to have a rich daughter... so you happen to be hanging around." "I'd like to stay here for a little while." "Alone, please." "Please, Mama." "How is he, Regina?" "He's dead." "You look tired." "Why don't you go and rest now?" "Yes, I am tired." "Would you pour me a brandy, please?" "Get one for yourselves." "Perhaps we're all going to need it." "Are you getting a cold, Oscar?" "Ben, shall we take up our conversation where we left off?" "What more is there to talk about?" "Really, Oscar, you're not very bright, are you?" "Ben, would you like to or shall I explain to Oscar... that you were quite safe while Horace lived to say he lent you the bonds." "But Horace is not alive now." "I've already said I want 75 percent of the new firm in exchange for the bonds." "This I have not said:" "If I don't get what I want, I'll put all of you in jail." "What are you talking about?" "On what evidence would you put Oscar and Leo in jail?" "Listen to him, Oscar." "He's getting ready to swear it was you and Leo." "Don't be angry, Oscar." "I'll see he goes in with you." "They were Horace's bonds." "There's nothing you can do." " He was willing to loan them to us." " Stop pretending." " Tomorrow I'm going to Judge Simms." " What proof of all this..." "The bonds are missing, and they're with Marshall." "That's proof enough." "If it isn't, I'll add what's necessary." " I'm sure of that." " We'll deny..." "Deny your heads off." "What jury would believe you?" "I don't think you could find 12 men in this state you haven't cheated." "What kind of talk is this?" "We're your own brothers." "How can you talk this way when not five minutes ago..." "Yes, Mama... not five minutes ago." "We know how you feel." "The whole town loved and respected your father." "Did you love him, Uncle Oscar?" "Did you love him, Uncle Ben?" "And you, Mama, did you love him too?" "Go lie down, my dear." "It takes time for all of us... to get over a shock like this." "Please go." "What was Papa doing on the staircase?" "Go and rest." " I want to talk to you, Mama." " Not now." "I'll wait." "I've plenty of time now." "As I was saying, tomorrow morning I'm going to Judge Simms." " I shall tell him about Leo." " Not in front of the child." "I didn't ask her to stay." "Where was I?" "Yes, they'll convict you." "But, of course, you have your choice." "I don't want to hear any more." "There will be no more bargaining!" "I'll take my 75 percent and forget the story forever." "That's one way of doing it and the way I prefer." "You should know me well enough to know I don't mind taking the other way." "None of us have ever known you well enough." "You're getting old, Ben." "Your tricks aren't as smart as they used to be." "All right, then, I take it that's settled, and I get what I asked for." " Are you going to let her do this?" " You have a suggestion?" "No, he hasn't." "Come, Leo and Oscar." "You can go home now." "Good night." "You too, Ben." "If you all behave yourselves, I'll forget anybody saw the bonds." "You can draw up the necessary papers tomorrow." "Be quick about it because I'm not very good at this legal business." "You boys are sort of working for me from now on." "You're a good loser." "I like that." "I say to myself:" "What's the good?" "You and I aren't like Oscar." "We're not sour people." "I think that comes from a good digestion." "Then too, one loses today and wins tomorrow." "I say to myself:" "Years of planning and I get what I want." "Then I don't get it." "But I'm not discouraged." "The world's open for people like you and me." "There's thousands of us all over the world." "We'll own this country some day." "They won't try to stop us." " We'll get along." " I think so." "Then too, I say to myself:" "Things may change." "I agree with Alexandra." "What was a man in a wheelchair doing on a staircase?" " I ask myself that." " And what do you answer?" "I have no answer." "Maybe someday I will." "Maybe never, but maybe someday." " When I do, I'll let you know." " Write me." "I'll be in Chicago." "I will." "Good night, Alexandra." "You're turning out to be a right interesting girl." "Good night." "What was it you wanted to talk to me about?" "I've changed my mind, Mama." "There's nothing to talk about now." "I know you've had a bad shock... but you must have expected this to come." "You knew how sick he was." "Yes, we all knew how sick he was." "I'm very tired, and I'm going up to bed." "Put all the lights out or the whole town will be over." "Be sure the windows are all closed." "The rain may come in." "Don't sit there staring like that." "You've been with Birdie so much, you're getting just like her." "That's what Aunt Birdie said." "Yes, I might have been just like her." "Don't grieve too much." "You'll be better when you get to Chicago." "I'm gonna get you the world I always wanted." "I don't want the world, Mama." "I'm not going to Chicago with you." "You're very upset." "Let's talk about it tomorrow." "There's nothing to talk about." "I'm going away from you because I want to." "Because I know Papa would want me to." "You know your papa would want you to go away from me?" "Yes." "And if I say no?" "Say it, Mama." "Say it and see what happens." "You're very serious about this, aren't you?" "You'll change your mind in a couple of days." "I've come to the end of my rope!" "Somewhere there's got to be what I want too." "Life goes too fast." "You can go where you want, do what you want, think what you want." "I'd like to keep you with me, but I won't make you stay." "You couldn't, Mama, because I don't want to stay with you." "Because I'm beginning to understand about things." "Addie said there were people who ate the Earth... and people who stood around and watched them do it." "Just now, Uncle Ben said the same thing, really the same thing." "Tell him for me, Mama, I'm not going to watch you do it." "Tell him I'll be fighting as hard as he is... someplace where people don't just stand around and watch." "Why, you have spirit after all." "I used to think you were all sugar water." "We don't have to be bad friends." "I don't want us to be bad friends." "Would you like to talk with me, Alexandra?" "Would you like to sleep in my room tonight?" "Why, Mama?" "Are you afraid?"

"Doctor." "Medic." "Care to join me for breakfast?" "Why the hell can't you just leave me alone?" "They're getting worse, aren't they?" "The dreams." "I'm not talking to you." "You will." "Soon." "Hi." "What you listening to?" "Up early." "Too hot to sleep." "What do you say we go for a drive, you and me?" "Maybe have us a little picnic?" "I already got you some dessert packed up under this here kimono." "I can't." "Don't you miss me, baby?" "I know I miss you." "Think fast." " High and inside." " Pig's eye." "I just tell 'em, I don't smell 'em." "All right." "That was good." "Put some heat on it." "Put any more heat on it, I'll burn a hole in your glove." "Good trick back when I used to hurl." "Picture a face in the catcher's mitt." "Somebody you'd really like to peg." "Let's see now, who can that be?" "Yeah." "Hi, Mama." "Knock it off." "Body don't talk, sure does got a lot to say." "She don't like my friends." "is that a fact?" "No exceptions?" "Well, there is you, of course." "She's got a mind you walk on water." "That's natural." "She's got it in for Libby, though." " What?" " Nothing." "You made a sound." "That's something." "Just think it's not all that surprising." "What's that supposed to mean?" "Nothing." "She's trash cos she dances for a living?" "It's nothing you haven't said before you two started palling around." "So what are you getting at?" "I was thinking, maybe..." "Your mom always thinking that..." "What?" "Nothing." "I like Libby." "Shit." "Goddamit." " Scorpion Boy." " Claws." "Fella's got claws instead of hands." "Yeah?" "It's a haul, 20, 30 mile." "Little town called Gunderson, I think." "Sounds sketchy to me." "When are you gonna learn everything about this business is sketchy?" "Keep the stupid out of your ears and listen up." "First thing to do is make sure he's genuine." " How am I supposed to do that?" " Check his paws." "Make sure he ain't wearing trick rubber gloves or something." "He passes muster, tell him he can make four clams a week." "Go on up to six, if you got to." "Six?" "Only if you got to, not a penny more." "I ain't never done nothing like this before." "Ice cream and cake, kid." " So why aren't you doing it then?" " Cos if I head out, everyone will know." "We got a lot of carnies defectoratin' lately." "Competition catches word, that Scorpion Boy will be major with freak finders from every show in all five counties." "Here's $15." "Give his folks whatever you got to to pry him loose." "Any questions?" "Yeah." "Why me?" "I guess it's just your turn in the barrel, boy." "Was daddy nice to Lila?" "Take it things are going well?" "Just dandy." "Boy's looking a bit ragged around the edges." "Insomnia is a cruel mistress." "He isn't sleeping?" "He's afraid to." " Do me a favour, dear." " lt'll be my pleasure." "Keep a very close eye on the boy." "I want you to keep track of his condition for me." "My butter girl." "Oh, daddy." " Excuse me." " Yeah?" "This the road to Gunderson?" "Gunderson?" "Jeepers, you are lost." "You want to turn it around and drive back to the fork." " On Hi Lane?" " That's right, son." "Take Hi Lane up to Trunk Road, go on about 15, 25 miles till it near peters out." "And there's a little dirt connector off to your left, goes right into town." "Thank you." "That song is God-awful." "Do you think?" "You mad at me for getting you all fired up to go out of here?" "No." "Maybe a little." "I'm a big, fat chicken." "Guess you may as well know that now." "You're not really that fat." "That hurt." "I'm sorry." "It wasn't in the cards." " You know what you need?" " What?" "You need Patsy." "OK." "Words come out of my mouth and by the time they hit her eardrums it's a whole different set of words." "I say, "How's things?" She says..." "She hears," ""How can I hone in on your private business?"" "Talking to a woman is like talking to a radio." "That's right." "The dial permanently tuned to a show called Jonesy's A Bonehead." "Shit!" "Give me that." "I think you need to get your candle waxed, my friend." "Who don't?" "Not like you." "You got the worst case of blue balls I ever did see." "Yeah, right." "I'm serious." "This friend of mine, Ernie Banks, had himself a blowout." " What?" " Yeah, blowout." "Hell." "Wife walked out on him, and he swore off women." "A year, two." "His left nut, pop!" "Just like a damn cherry bomb." "Pop!" "That is the biggest load of crap I ever heard." "Yeah, maybe it is, maybe it isn't, but you, my friend, you could use a toss." "I don't got time to cosy up to skirts." "I ain't talking about courting." "I'm talking about Rita Sue." "I don't know." "She ain't pretty enough for you?" "No, that ain't it." "If money's a problem, I believe I can jigger a discount." "Forget it." "Let me ask you something." "You go to the doctor, he gives your sack a little squeeze asks you to cough, you think he's sweet on you?" "Ain't the same thing." "That's exactly the same thing." "The woman's a professional." "And besides..." " you'd be doing me a favour." " Yeah?" "How's that?" "She's a high-stepper, that Rita Sue." "She's worn me out." "She needs a lot of loving." "My heart's bleeding all over the place for you. I swear to God." "Hey, I ain't kidding around." "I'm chapped halfway up to my bellybutton." "I need a relief pitcher here." "You know, I got to work on this." "Come by tonight, after the first show." "Hell, Stumpy." "You want to show up, that's fine." "You don't want to show up... that's fine, too." "Shit." "Switch." "Some matching outfits, you could have something there." " You think?" " Sure, I do." "It ain't the Follies, but then this isn't hardly Manhattan, neither." "Seen the Hawkins boy?" "He lit out in the Chevy this morning." "Where to?" "Now then..." "Mr...?" "Mr Doe." "Mind if I call you John?" "Apparently you jumped..." "No." "You threatened to jump off the John F Chellis bridge." "No?" "You don't remember?" "I remember." "I remember perfectly." "I've always been what I am." "And that is?" "The left hand of God." "What exactly does it mean to be the left hand of God?" "It means I'm no longer His servant." "And I never was." "I am His will made flesh." "Like Jesus?" "No." "Satan?" "No." "You've misspelled "excitation."" "I beg your pardon?" "You asked me what it meant to be the left hand of God." "I told you." "I broke a man's neck." "You never said..." "You broke a man's neck." "I willed it, and it was so." " Fascinating." " Yes." "And terrible." "Why don't you try that on me?" "Perhaps I already have." "Your treatments were not intended to be punitive." "The pain is an unavoidable side-effect." "Yes, quite right." "Pain is an unavoidable side-effect." "Might it be possible for me to get some paper and something to write with?" " A fountain pen, perhaps?" " l'm afraid that's out of the question." "No matter." "I don't think it will be necessary." "Thank you, Doctor." "Fill her up?" "I'm looking for a town called Gunderson." "Gunderson?" "Yeah." "Well..." "There's a Gunderville." "That's got a "Gunder" in it." "Where's it at?" "There's a fellow who lives up here, calls himself Scorpion Boy." " Scorpion Boy?" " He's got claws instead of hands." "No." "No Scorpion Boys." " Not around here." " Yeah." "Got us a Lobster Gal." "She's got claws." "Where's she at?" "You turn around... run on down about 15, 20 mile to the fork... and then you hook around to the lane." "Another mile or so, there's an old place, the Tucker place." "That's where Lobster Gal resides." "Thank you." "You're pretty light on your feet, missy." " Ma." " She is." "Where did you learn to dance?" " l don't know. lt just sort of..." " Comes natural?" "Libby baby, go get Mama one of them Nehis." "Scoot." "I want to thank you." "What for?" "It's a long time since I've seen my baby smiling and having all that fun up on the stage." "I was afraid Babylon took that away from her." "Hey, I got an idea." " What?" " Why don't you work the bally?" "I really couldn't." "Don't be jumping to conclusions." "I'm not asking you to strip or nothing." "Just get up there looking all coy while Felix turns the tip." "Get the rubes percolated for the real show." "You and Lib would have a lot of fun." "I can't." "I got a job, so..." "Besides, I think Mama would probably blow a gasket." "You know something?" "My mama felt the exact same way, which is why I got into this business." "Ma, what are you doing?" "I'm gonna go." "Come by later?" "Be sure and tell your mama hi for me." "You don't even know her mama." "What's to know?" "She's a stiff." "I'm just being polite." "I can't believe you tried to put the hustle on her." " Hustle?" " Don't give me that." " You know exactly..." " l didn't do anything." "She's not some dumb Nell you can just grind into the show." "She's got class." "I am just trying to make you happy." "Why Hawkins?" "Can you tell me that?" "It's a delicate situation." "He's the only one around who knows how to keep his trap shut unlike some people I know." "Samson, I'm not an idiot." "The boy's a prison escapee, a fugitive and yet you think nothing of giving him $15 cash, plus a car?" "Yeah." "Doesn't that strike you as... imprudent?" "Half the guys in this place are jailbirds, I send them out on runs all the time." "They always come back." "Mostly always." " What if he doesn't come back?" " l don't know, what do you think?" "I think you've made a very large mistake, my friend." "Mistake?" "What mistake?" "You yourself said the kid is a bumpkin." " He's not just a..." " He's not just a bumpkin." "Why don't you tell me?" "What is he... exactly?" "is this where the Lobster Gal lives?" "You with the freak show?" "Yeah." "Hello, young buck." "What kept you?" "We don't need to talk about this." "I told her no." "Why are you nagging me for something I haven't even done?" "You know what?" "Maybe I would." "At least Libby's mother treats her daughter with a little respect." "You're one to talk." "At least she knows who her father is." " Clayton Jones?" " Yep." "Jonesy?" " l figured he's..." " l don't roll with trade." " l know, but..." " But nothing, that is the way it is." "No tricks with carny folk." "Come on, baby, it's not like this is hard and fast." "Whose idea was this?" "Jonesy out there, he..." " What do you mean?" " Whose idea, you or Jones?" "It was his." "I wouldn't have set this up independent." "The poor sap, he practically begged me." " ls that so?" " Yes, ma'am." "You're lying to me." "This was your doing." "Why would you wanna do something like this to us?" "I'm not doing anything, it's just another damn trick." "Fine, line him up." " Rita..." " l said fine." "Hi, Sofie." "Good afternoon, friends, this is Tommy Dolan with more true tales from on the road." "Unless you've been visiting Mars lately you've probably been following the story of Brother Justin, originally recounted by this reporter." "Up and down the Golden State one question has crossed the lips of men, women, and children alike, white, black, brown, and yellow." "Be still." "The question scrawled on water towers, boxcars and bridge abutments from Crescent City to Calexico." "A question that has become a rallying cry for the disenfranchised " ""Where are you, Brother Justin?"" "Watch out for the upholstery, darling." "Hey, no hard feelings, I hope." "Have yourself a Goo Goo, boy." "What do you want?" "Hell, you don't have to get all sore about it." "Us freak finders gotta stick together." "You're with Samson's outfit." "Him and me go way back." "Phineas Boffo." "You don't have to be a sourpuss about it." "Put her there, kid." "Jesus!" "Let me go!" " What is it?" " Hell's bells, kid!" "It's my lodge ring, you know, the craft." "Give me my ring back." "Goddamn thief, come back with my ring!" " l keep my underthings on?" " As long as you're not flashing straps." "Be sure and keep an eye on the crowd." "Don't want to cause a ruckus." " Are you mad at me?" " No." "Why the hell are you brushing me bald?" " l was just..." " Just what?" "I can't believe you fell for that old hustle." "What hustle?" ""Gal, you're a natural."" "What a big load of crap." "She's done it a thousand times." "Get some dumb bunny up on the bally." ""No, you don't have to take your clothes off." "Just stand there looking coy."" " l'm not dumb." " Then why can't you see through it?" "That bitch would say anything to get this show up." " That's not what this is about." " Really?" "Why don't you tell me what it's about?" "She saw us dancing." "She saw you smiling again, having fun." "And that's all she wants." "Just wants you to be happy again." "Like hell." "If you don't want me to do it, all you've gotta do is say so." "You find that Lobster Gal all right?" " Yeah, I found her." " Real freak, that one." "That's $2.81 ." " You wanna buy a chair?" " What?" "It's a real nice chair. lt's hickory." " l don't need a chair." " l'll sell it to you for a dollar." "It's worth five times that." "I'd like to keep it, but right now I need a tyre more then a chair." "Goddamn it." "Didn't I tell you to quit bugging the customers?" " Now get!" " Sorry!" "That's enough." " Keep the change, fix his tyre." " $2 ain't enough." "Five more." " Let me get that chair for you." " lt's OK." "Gentlemen, you better hold on to your eyeballs cos they're gonna pop out of your head when you see what we have for you here this evening." "Here we have the exquisite Madam Woo, mysterious Empress of the East, here to prove to you whether it's true what they say about Oriental women - is the basket swinging straight up and down... or sideways?" "Yes, folks!" "Gentlemen..." " He's watching you." " ignore him." "..a taste of what we have for you tonight." "What's shaking!" "What is baking!" "Let go." "What we have pumping!" "What we have sizzling!" "Get him off him!" "Son of a bitch." "Are you out of your goddamn gourd?" "What the hell are you thinking?" "Cut him loose." "Sorry, a little misunderstanding here." "What say to a few free tickets for you and your boys?" "When the hell are you gonna learn?" "Are you sure you're OK?" "Yeah." "Should have been paying more attention, that's all." "Stupid." "You all right?" "I'm real sorry." " But I can't let that happen again." " lt won't." "I know." " Am I fired?" " Darlin', you was never hired." "You saw, it was stupid Jonesy..." "Don't you dare." "Don't you dare badmouth that man." "You're goddamn lucky to have any man feel that strong about you." "Goddamn lucky." "I told you, I've never done this before." "So if you wanna chew me out, you go right ahead," " cos this is at least half your doing." " Why, what happened?" "Some weasel gave me bum directions and he beat me to the punch." "Weasel?" "Sounds like the kid's got your number, Phin." "Give me back my goddamn ring." "Here's the ring." "Why are you making such a fuss over this crackerjack penny whistle?" "That is solid, 10-carat white gold." "It set me back $19." "You look it here, bub." "Carnies don't steal from carnies." "That is the code." "What do you call what you did with that Lobster Gal?" "He got you there, Phin." "If he wasn't one of yours, I would've clobbered him." " See you later, Samson." " See you." " And you're $10 short." " l had to fill up." "That's three." "I'll make it good." " Yeah, you will." " OK, then." "Hell." "I thought that was you." "You just gonna stand there?" " Rough night." " Yeah." "Go on, have a seat." "What's the matter, tiger?" "You shy?" "I was just thinking that... maybe this is a real bad idea." "I mean, I think you're real pretty and all... and I like you fine... but I never paid for..." "Don't." "It's OK." "The boy has no idea at present." "And undoubtedly has had precious few, if any at all ideas." "Yes, I agree." "But we certainly can't rule out the possibility that Scudder..." "Samson, leave us."

"In this dark summer of 1942... the onslaught of the Third Reich continues... under the leadership of this indecent and corrupt man." "His over-trained and blindly obedient army... continues to ravish what is left of free Europe." "While II Duce grasps for his place... as this wicked Axis tries to dominate the world..." "President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill... gather the Allies in defense of the free world... the third Axis power plunders across the Pacific." "Mankind is being threatened by these despicable villains." "The only hope for freedom and democracy is..." " Heil Hitler." " Ja, Heil Hitler." "Speak English, if you don't mind, Herr Kapitän, for secrecy's sake... on the off-chance that someone might be listening... and learn the secret of your mission." "So you are excited, ja?" "Herr Oberst, I am always excited... when performing for the great and glorious Fatherland." "Of course." "Oberst, they are warming up the airship, no?" "We have deliberately kept the objective of your mission... a secret from even you, Herr Kapitän, until the last minute." "It is that sensitive and crucial." "Randall, you will find the complete maps for your route in your bomber." "But here is your goal." "The Brooklyn Navy Yard." "Even our XV-12 cannot carry enough explosives... to destroy the entire installation." "But the Allies do not know that." "Nor do they know that your goal... will be this one, small this one, small, building right here." " You mean the only building..." "Here the Americans are manufacturing a new bomb sight." "It's called the Norden bombsight." "If they manage to incorporate this into the Allied bombers... they will be able to pinpoint targets... from an altitude far beyond the effective range of our anti-aircraft." "Destroy this one factory... and it will put them behind at least a year... in their war effort." "At the same time that you are bombing the Brooklyn Navy Yard... one of our agents in Washington... will be stealing the only duplicate set of plans for the bomb sight... thus completely destroying their production capability." "Of course, your timing must be flawless." "It will be, Herr Oberst." "I had hoped to undertake this mission myself, but unfortunately... the Führer wishes me to be right here by his side." "If you fail..." "I will not, Herr Oberst." "...then I will have no other choice... but to complete your mission myself, successfully." "I shall not fail, Herr Oberst." "As our English friends would say, good hunting." "And Heil Hitler." "This report just came in this morning from Berlin." "We have to stop Drangel and that infernal airship, whatever it is." "Let's see, now." "Left Germany for Argentina... up over the Bermuda area... then on to the Navy Yard?" " I don't understand his reasoning." " Nor I." "No single Nazi plane can knock out all the ships we have there." "If the Nazis bomb the continental United States... it would be a great boost to their ego..." " and a terrible blow to ours." " Yes." "Particularly if they've developed a dreadful new bomb... capable of mass destruction." "Any other information besides this?" "No, just the route timing and the single plane identification." "How about a squadron to intercept them?" "Dogfight over Brooklyn?" "No, I wouldn't want to chance that." "I'll have to get him before he reaches the American mainland." "Look at the time." "Will that be all, Steve?" "I have a chiropodist's appointment this afternoon." " Sure, Marcia, go ahead." " Thanks." " Marcia?" " Yes?" " See you later tonight?" " Sure thing." "Shall we get back to the problem, Major?" "It's very basic, as I see it." "If the Americans ever found out the Nazis had a plane... capable of penetrating the U.S. Borders... it would destroy what's left of their pride." "These days are dark enough already." "General, we'll have to get that plane before it ever gets near the States." "But you'd better be prepared to evacuate the Navy Yard..." " on an hours notice, just in case." " Only if necessary." "There should be no publicity." "Which means it's up to me... to bring that plane down quickly and quietly." "Something wrong, Herr Oberst?" "I can't understand it, Nickolas." "Drangel was not in the air over 10 hours... when the Americans knew of his mission." "There is a leak here somewhere... very close to the source." "Cigarette?" "Keep the pack." "Perhaps it was one of the mechanics on the airstrip." "There were orders on the plane." "Perhaps." "It could be anyone." "I'll try to nail him over the Bermuda area in that so-called Devil's Triangle." "Since the year 1900, over 50 ships and 60 planes have disappeared... in that area without explanation." " Good thinking." " Well, it might work." "At least the Nazis won't know if he was shot or taken by the elements." "I'm told there could be a gravitational whirlpool pulling the boats down... but no one has an explanation for the lost planes." "It's a strange area, all right." "There are many uncharted islands in the triangle." "Sort of tropical paradises." "You can save them for after the war, boy." "Good luck, Steve." "That's what I'm gonna need:" "Good luck and a good plane." "Do your best, boy." "General, I can only do my best." "Come on, Rena." "Princess!" " I've never seen that before." " Neither have I." "Let's find out what it is." " What do you think it is?" " I think it's called a parachute." "But what's it doing here, on Paradise Island?" "It's a man." "He's been hurt." " He's almost dead, Rena." " A man?" "Here on our island?" "Just help me get him out of this contraption." "Help me lift him." "Be careful." "I've never seen a man in the flesh before." "Who of us have?" " It looks like a man." " What is it?" "Where did you find him?" "Run ahead to the hospital, and let them know we're coming." "According to his papers, his name is Steve Trevor... and he is attached to the Air Corps Intelligence Division... of the United States." "It had to happen, eventually." "But Paradise Island is still secret, Your Majesty." "The man is unconscious." "His eyes are bandaged." "Even if he should wake up, he wouldn't know where he was." "This location has always been perfect for us." "In a thousand years... no one has ever discovered us." "But why now?" "Mother." "Your Highness, Doctor." "Where did you find the man, daughter?" "On the beach, near the cave." " Will he be all right?" " Yes, in time." " But will we be all right?" " We, Mother?" "The instant he returns to civilization the world will know about us." "And our island." "Then where will we be?" "But, surely, some men can be trusted." "You're too young to remember how... we women were slaves in Rome and Greece." "I promised myself it would never happen again." "We found this island... where we could live in harmony... peace, sisterhood." " Be gone." " Yes, Your Majesty." "Now we may lose it forever." "Let me know if there's any change in his condition." " About this man..." " There's nothing to discuss." "Mother, how can you think that way?" "I named this island Paradise for an excellent reason:" "There are no men on it." "Thus, it is free of their wars... their greed, their hostilities... their barbaric, masculine behavior." "Thousands of years have passed." "Perhaps men are now different." "Perhaps they've come to think as much of peace as we do." "We shall soon see." "Could I serve as his nurse?" "No." "You're the Princess." "You have been trained to rule, not to care for the needs of the sick." " Well, then, as a special favor to me." " No." " Please, Mother." " No." " It's just for a few days." " No." "For scientific study." "Very well, then, go." "Observe the male species." "But don't..." "Go, my daughter." "It's difficult to find words at a time like this." "Steve wouldn't have wanted a long eulogy." "Just a drink in his honor, that's about it." "You're right." "To Steve Trevor... a genuine American hero." "How is he?" "I just gave him a potion of special serum." "What is your name?" "Steven Leonard Trevor..." "Major, United States Air Corps." "Why were you flying over this island?" "Answer me." "I was trying to intercept a Nazi plane... on its way to bomb the U.S." "What are Nazis and the U.S.?" "Nazis are a group of evil men... out to rule the world." "They kill anyone who doesn't agree with them... like the United States of America." "What would happen if the Nazis should defeat you?" "Dictatorship." "The end of freedom for mankind." "I've got to get back." "I've got to try." "He should rest now." " A wire, Herr Oberst." " Speak." "Drangel has failed." "He and the XV-12 have gone down... somewhere off Bermuda... in the Devil's Triangle." " How?" " No one knows." "An Allied pilot, the devil." "There must be a leak somewhere here at the airfield." "Three of the mechanics were severely interrogated by the Gestapo." " They have all confessed." " Useless!" "Telephone the factory." "Tell them to redouble their efforts to complete the XV-13." "I will fly it myself." "You wanted to see me, Mother?" "You may leave his care to others." "Well, thank you... but I would prefer to stay on until I'm certain that he's well." "That was a command, not a request." "Am I allowed to ask why?" " You are very intelligent." " I am your daughter." "There are so many things you don't know." " Do you have any idea of your age?" " By what standard?" " By the earth's clock." " No." "You are immortal as are all of us on Paradise Island." "If you should ever leave here, you could revert to a human being." "Why are you telling me this now, Mother?" "Because I sense what might happen between you and that man." "We are stronger, wiser, and more advanced... than all those people in their jungles out there." " Our civilization is perfection." " No." "There's something missing, Mother." "When I look at Steve Trevor..." "I feel things, things I've never known before." "There are some things that are better not known." "Young Amazon minds are best occupied... with athletic discipline and higher learning." "We now know why he was in the area." "That man must be returned to his own country." "But why, Mother?" "For his safety and ours." "One of our young Amazon girls will escort him to his country... and then return to Paradise Island." " But all the girls will want that task." " I know." "To forestall any ill feeling..." "I have planned a tournament of athletic games... by which I alone shall determine the strongest, nimblest... and most likely aspirant for the assignment." "A tournament." "That's a wonderful idea, Mother." "I look forward to participating in the games myself." "You?" "Never." "But, Mother!" "I cannot risk my only begotten child, our princess... on a mission in behalf of the life of a savage." " Is that your final decision?" " Yes, it is." "Then I'd rather not stay for the tournament." "Perhaps I'll go on retreat, to the summer palace." "As you wish." "Trust me in this." "Noble Amazons... masked, in the tradition of our tournaments... with only your individual skills and prowess to rely upon." "One of you will win... for the glory of all... and to preserve our Paradise." "Let the tournament begin." "The events have been tallied... and two Amazons are now tied for the honor." "There is only one way to break the deadlock:" "Bullets and bracelets." "For only women have the necessary speed and coordination... to attempt bullets and bracelets without the loss of life." "Are you ready?" "Begin." "This is the golden belt." "It is the symbol of Amazon supremacy." "So long as you wear it... you will retain your cunning and strength... away from Paradise Island." "And this is your golden lasso." "Besides being made of an indestructible material... it also carries with it the power to compel people to tell the truth." "Use it well, and with compassion." "You realize the task you have chosen... is the most difficult sacrifice... any person can make." "I do it because I love my people." "I love my queen... but most of all..." "I love my mother." "I'm sorry, Mother, but it was the only way." "I would have expected... nothing less from my own daughter." "I did it for you, Mother." "The colors were chosen to show your allegiance to freedom and democracy." "The skirt can be discarded if it should prove cumbersome..." " the material is indestructible." " It's beautiful, Mother." " Thank you." " I designed it myself... never knowing that it would be worn by my own daughter." "I'll make you proud, I promise." "There are many things you don't know about the world of men." "There are even some women there who are less than our Amazonian ideal." "I believe I can handle them, Mother." "I know you can." "You are my daughter and a princess." "The invisible plane is waiting." "The American is already aboard." "Go in peace, my daughter." "And remember that in the world of ordinary mortals... you are a Wonder Woman." "I will make you proud of me... and of Wonder Woman." " I must be dreaming." " No, you're not." "I must have died and gone to heaven." "Two wrong." "One guess left." "The last thing I remember... was getting shot while coming down in my parachute." "Relax." "We'll be landing soon." "Could I help you?" "I would like to get this patient admitted." "Just fill out these forms in triplicate." "You don't understand." "He's quite ill and needs immediate attention." "Thank you." "Calling Doctor Westly, Doctor Westly." "This is Maj. Steve Trevor." "He's very ill." " Maj. Steve Trevor?" "But he's dead." " Who are you?" "I'm his personal nurse." "Take good care of him." "I'm going to leave my patient in your hands." "Thank you." "Marcia, Steve is alive!" "All we know is a woman dressed in a red, white and blue uniform..." " dropped him off at the hospital." " Nothing more about her?" "No, but as soon as he regains consciousness... there's a lot we have to ask him." "Until then, let's just be thankful he's alive." "Believe me, I am, General Blankenship." "See you later, Marcia." "Operator?" "I'd like to place a long distance call, please... person-to-person, to Mr. Carl Hoff... room 451, Hotel Bennett, New York City..." "Murryhill 3667." "My name is Kaye Beasley." "Make it collect, please." "I need your help, fast." "Get down here to Washington right away." "Steve Trevor is alive." "Apparently some woman is responsible, and she must be found and stopped." "I saw you through the window... and I said to myself:" "Brenda, you have something that would be perfect for a figure like hers." " Thank you, but I'm really just..." " What you're wearing is fine for summer." "Far be it from me to criticize, but with winter coming..." "That is most becoming, my dear." "You certainly use a lot of material in your dresses." "This is downright stingy by comparison to what we had before the war." "These days, what with all the rationing, the dresses are half the size." " Thank you very much for the dress." " You're welcome." " Goodbye." " Goodbye." "Just a minute." " You can't leave without paying." " Paying?" "That dress is $6.95, marked down from $10." "I haven't the slightest idea what you're talking about." "No money, no dress." "And next time, lady, try to con somebody else." "Get back in there, and you won't get hurt!" "Excuse me, but that's very rude." " Get out of here, broad!" " It's also dangerous." "Please put those guns down." "You could hurt people." " Shoot her, Nadzeel." " Me?" "I never shot a woman before, except in self-defense." "All right, what's going on?" "What happened here?" "Officer, those men robbed our bank." " You say these men robbed your bank?" " Yes." "This wonderful woman in the bathing suit stopped them." "Okay, stand back." "Now, what's your story, lady?" " Story?" "Well, I know a few myths but..." " A joker?" " Okay, suppose we start with your name." " Wonder Woman." "Sure." "That's the last name:" "Woman?" " First name, Wonder." "Right?" " Right." "Wonder Woman." "Mike, the guy in the back is starting to stir." "Stay where you are, Wonder." "You caught the robbers, saved the money." "You'll have to fill out forms." "We're gonna need your statement." "They steal money, and I have to fill out forms." "What a country this is." "Lady!" " Yes, you, lady." " What is it?" "Have you got a second, lady?" "How would you like to accumulate a bundle of money?" "Well, I don't rob banks." "Rob banks?" "Who needs to?" "Not with that bit you had with the bullets and the bracelets." "Sensational!" "I could make a star out of you, lady, if you play your cards right." ""Ashley Norman:" "Dogs, Dwarfs and Daredevils"?" " What does that mean?" " I'm a theatrical agent." " I'm not a theatrical performer." " Are you kidding?" "You are the greatest!" "You do that trick on stage with the bullets and the bracelets... you'll make people forget about Harlow and Grable." "Why, Betty Grable looks like a boy compared to you." "Just a minute." "If I do this bullet trick..." " what do I get?" " Money." " Apparently I need money to survive here." " And lots of it." "Do you know that a good steak dinner costs over $1 these days?" "It's disgusting." " And what do you get out of this?" " 50%, sweetheart." "Half the money?" "But I'm the one that's getting shot at." "That's show business." "Perhaps I'll get in touch with you when Steve..." " When I'm interested." " No, you better move fast, lady." "The story of how you caught those crooks will be in tomorrow's papers." "You've got to strike while the iron is hot." "Remember:" "There's nothing deader than yesterday's news." "Call me." "How much longer will it be until my XV-13 will be delivered?" "It will be delivered to Berlin within hours." "Excellent." "Drangel's disaster will soon be mitigated... by my triumph over the skies of New York before the week is done." "It's a miracle he's alive, with all the wounds he's got." "Have they found out anything more about that unusual woman who dropped him off?" "No, nothing, except that she was strangely dressed... very attractive, quite strong... and unfemininely pushy." "Where is she?" "Where is that beautiful girl, that angel?" "Steve, it's me, General Blankenship." " Can you hear me?" " Where is..." "How did you get here?" "What happened with the plane, Steve?" "What..." "Nurse, how is he coming along?" " As well as can be expected, sir." " General." "General, what are you going to do?" "I momentarily blanked on this one, Marcia." "If our intelligence is correct about the Nazis... being able to take anything at the Navy Yard with a superior plane... we are in serious difficulty." "We just have to pray that Steve gets better fast." " Lieutenant." " Yes, sir." "I want someone with him at all times, in case he wakes... long enough to answer questions." " Very well, sir." "I'll see to it." " Thank you." "Let's go, Marcia." "There's nothing more we can do here now." "All right." "I'll bet you were surprised to see Steve again, weren't you?" "You don't know how surprised." " Keep up the good work, Lieutenant." " Sir." "It's you." "It's really you." "No, it isn't." "You're just dreaming." "But stay asleep." "I'll be near, watching over you." "Even if I do have to earn some money first." "Tomorrow night's the night." "The Academy Theater is booked." "The ads will hit the morning paper... at the same time that the bank robbery story hits the front page." " You're quite sure of yourself." " Absolutely." "If there's one thing Ashley Norman knows about, it's a woman's mind... and money." "The delightful little lady you've all come here to meet... the two most exciting words in show business today:" "Wonder Woman!" "Let's hear it for this beautiful creature!" "Now, to prove that this is no trick... and that the bullets in these guns are not blanks..." "I will shoot at this metal wall... which we have built to protect the backstage." "Wonder Woman, step aside, if you please." "Thank you." "Gun and real bullets." "Now watch this." "Thank you, you're very kind." "If those of you who are interested will now step on stage... we'll go on with the show." "Come on, have we a hardy soul here tonight?" "There's a marine." "From the shores of Tripoli, my friends" "Yes, I knew it would be a marine." "Bless you, son." "Here you are, choose your weapon." "There's another gentleman, right there." "Nice big hand." "Who else?" "Do we have a third?" "Oh, no, grandma." "A woman." "Let's hear it." "Thank you, ma'am." "Marine, go ahead." "And he has sharp shooting medals." "Go ahead, fire at Wonder Woman." "All right." "Here comes the shot." "Here's another man now." "Go ahead, sir, choose your weapon... and fire away." "Bounced right off, ladies and gentlemen." "Just a flick of the wrist and the bullets slipped off." "Yes." "Ladies, give a nice big hand for grandmother here... who came up to fire at Wonder Woman." "I am not used to firearms, but I was just wondering..." "I have a gun that I have fired and I am comfortable with." "I may use it?" "Anything that makes you comfortable, go right ahead." "She's comfortable with that little gun that she..." "Hey, lady." "Machine gun, that's something else." "Oh, no." "But in the advertising you say... she would face any weapon, is that not so?" "Right!" "Just a moment, please." "It is up to you, Wonder Woman." "Go ahead." "Hold your fire." "Wonder Woman says she is not afraid." "Fire at will." "Did you see that, ladies and gentlemen?" "Ladies and gentlemen, you saw this with your own eyes!" "Did you see her divert those bullets?" "By God, it was fascinating!" "Nickolas, we may never see each other again." "Don't say that, Herr Oberst." "I know in my heart you will return." "There are several times in a man's life... when he might be glad he never married." "I think, Nickolas, that this is one of them." "I will leave only my pigeons and my good friend..." "Nickolas." "Thank you, sir." "Contact Washington, inform Agent M... of the approximate time of my bombing... and have her inform the U-boat off Long Island." "May I shake your hand?" "Under the circumstances, why not?" "Goodbye, Nickolas." "God bless America." "Terrific." "You knocked them dead." "Read what they said in the papers?" "We're gonna be a smash from coast to coast, sweetheart." " Coast to coast?" " Yes." "I got an advance on Madison Square Garden, and the Coliseum in L.A." "One year on tour, and we will be on easy street." "No, not me." "Pardon?" "That's it, I'm through." "What are you talking about?" "You can't quit now." "I'm sorry, Mr. Norman... but I came to the United States to do something very important." "Much more important than this." "Sure, well, I understand." "Some people get caught up in the smell of greasepaint, and some people don't." "Look, why don't you sit down, take it easy." "I'll be back in a moment." "I'm going for a drink of water." "Just read the rest of the reviews, at least keep a few memories." "Excuse me, Mr. Norman, but that's my money, too." "How right you are." "I'll tell you what I'll do, I'll just leave it here... you take your half, leave me the rest." "I trust you." "I can avoid that bullet faster than you can shoot, Mr. Norman." "Ashley Norman, you are certainly one man who is not to be trusted." "Please, don't hurt me." "Hurt you?" "Where I'm from, we try never to hurt people." "Goodbye." "Hello, Marcia?" "This is Carl." "I tried everything I could to stop her, but it didn't work." "Okay, so I failed." "You want me to follow her?" "Left Argentina already?" "Okay, I'll wait at the apartment." "Heil Hitler." " Hello?" " Hello, Steve, how are you?" "Coming along." "How's everything there?" "Not so good." "Our Argentine source reports a top Nazi in their long-range bomber, the XV-13... is already headed for the States." "It can handle anything we can put in the air." "That's terrible." "Von Blasko, their ace, is flying it himself." "Latest intelligence reports he took off after refueling in Argentina an hour ago." "Von Blasko?" "General, if he's flying that mission himself... then the target must be more than the Brooklyn Navy Yard." "Steve, what about the morale factor?" "If the Nazis bomb the continental United States..." "No, it's more than that, much more." "General, you never told me... but the Norden bombsight..." "Is that being manufactured..." "My God, Trevor, that must be it." "I'll warm up a squadron of P-38s right away." "No, they wouldn't have a chance." "Von Blasko would carve them up with that XV-13." "If that bombsight is being manufactured there... then secrecy must be kept." "General, warm up my new plane." "But you never tested it... and orders are that you stay in bed." "Hello, we must have a bad connection here, General." "Make sure that plane's gassed up and ready." "I should be at the air base in half an hour." "The general is gonna go through the roof." "Don't worry." "I'll take all the responsibility." "I'll send a car to take you to the base." "No, there's no time." "I'll catch a cab." "If I shortcut along the Georgetown road, I should be there at 1600 hours." "Take care, Steve." "Don't I always?" "Can't you go any faster?" "You want to drive, I'll let you drive." "Trouble." "Hi." "What seems to be the problem?" "Stay right where you are, fly-boy." "That is a problem." "Hey, taxi!" "Don't make a move!" "Or we're going mess up that pretty little soldier suit of yours." "I say we kill the pig now." "Put away the knife." "Idiot." "If we do, the Gestapo will have us killed." "Let's get him back to the apartment, schnell!" " Nurse Buck." " Yes?" "Maj. Trevor." "He's not in his room." "I've looked all over the hospital." "I think he's gone." "That's right." "His doctor wanted him to stay, but he wanted to get back to the war... so I let him." "He's a real soldier." "Would you happen to know where he went?" "He's good looking and single, too." "He's with Military Intelligence." "It's that big marble building down on D Street." "Got to make my rounds." "See you later." "Steve Trevor knows the combination to the safe... containing the Norden bombsight plans." "But he wouldn't give it to us under any torture." "We're going to have to use truth serum." "First, prepare the hypodermic." "It took me five years to gain his complete confidence." "He will respond to my voice under the drug." "What time is the rendezvous with our U-boat?" "1:00 a. m." "If I'm not back from the office by midnight, Trevor is to be killed." "If I can be back in time, we'll take him with us." "To the Fatherland." " Heil Hitler." " Heil Hitler." "But why bother?" "Because, you fool, he is the key to American intelligence activities." " I gave him the shot." " Good." "Hello, Steve, darling." "It's Marcia." "It's very important that we get into the safe in your office now." "Important?" "Safe?" "That's right." "Just give me the combination and I'll take care of it." "I can't." "It's a secret." "Tell me the combination, Steve." "The General needs the plans to the Norden bombsight." "I can't do it." "You'll bring him back to consciousness." "Let me try another tack." "You trust me, don't you?" "Sure, Marcia." "You're my good friend." "Yes, I am." "Now give me the combination." "The whole country is depending on you." "The whole country?" "Millions of people." "Millions of people?" "For Old Glory?" "Twenty-four left... twenty-six right..." "And thirty-three to the left." "I knew it was you all the time." "You didn't know anything." "I knew that you had a friend who carried a machine gun in her purse." "And you won't get away with whatever you're doing." "And who's going to stop me?" "You of all people should realize how useless that gun is against me." "I don't need a gun to take you, Wonder Woman." "I was Nuremberg judo champ!" "I assume that that is supposed to impress me." "They didn't teach you to fight fair." "Now, you are going to tell the truth." "Don't bother fighting it." "That lasso compels you to be honest and you must answer every question." "Where is Steve Trevor?" "My apartment." "2809 West Twentieth Street, Chevy Chase." "Is he all right?" "Until midnight." "If I'm not there by then, he'll be killed." "That's the same hour that the Brooklyn Navy Yard will be bombed... and the Norden bombsight destroyed." "You may be fast, but nobody can be at two places at the same time." "It's over, Marcia." "You're through." "You may have me." "But the Third Reich will never be through." "It will go on a thousand years." "I heard the Greeks and Romans say the same thing." "You heard that?" "I may be older than I look." "Now, what number do I call on this instrument to reach your apartment?" "Capitol 6732." "We'll get even with you for this." "My people will send more agents." "No." "The Nazis don't care about their women." "They let you fend for yourself." "And any civilization that does not recognize the female... is doomed to destruction." "Women are the wave of the future... and sisterhood is stronger than anything." "This is Marcia." "The plans have been changed." "I'll be there an hour later." "And the rendezvous with the sub?" "Advise them of the alteration." "No!" "You are going to stay right where you are." "You must obey." "I must obey." "And to think that Steve Trevor was fooled by you." "I'm going to have to get accustomed to men and devious women." "Calling Von Blasko." "U-boat 23 calling." "You were ordered to maintain radio silence." "Plans changed." "The estimated time of departure now 0200 hours." "That's 2:00 a. m." "Nein!" "We rendezvous at midnight." "If the others are late, they will pay for their tardiness with their lives." "Take it up now." "Surface your U-boat." "Who are you?" "Your welcoming committee." "I don't think so." "Just nose your plane down to the closest airstrip and everything will be fine." "No one can stop this mission... least of all a woman." "You obviously have little regard for womanhood." "You must learn respect." "I prefer not to soil my hands on female flesh... but if you insist." "Calling Von Blasko." "U-boat 23 calling." " Come in, Von Blasko." " Ja." "We have you approaching the Brooklyn Navy Yard." "What is your position?" "32 miles due east of Long Island." "Latitude 40, 45, 06." "Longitude 73, 59, 39." " You again?" " This man is a top Nazi spy." "Put him in a cell and throw away the key." "You can't just dump a spy and walk away like that." "You've got to come in and fill out some reports." "Good night, gentlemen." "Ten minutes to 1:00." "The sub doesn't answer, something's wrong." " Let's kill him and get out of here." " No, Marcia said to wait until 1:00." "You can stay if you want, but I'm going to leave now." "All right, let's plug him, get out of here." "So, Mr. Norman, my old friend the agent, we meet again." "Sit down, Steve." "I don't know who you are, but get this chair off my back." "It's you!" "Well, how did you..." "I've got to get out of here." "A spy plane's coming..." "There isn't." "The Brooklyn Navy Yard is safe, and so is the Norden bombsight." "You knew what they wanted?" "Von Blasko's in jail, his XV-13 is at the bottom of the Atlantic... along with the submarine that was to pick up these men... and Marcia." "Marcia?" "She was the leader of the pack, Steve." "A most untrustworthy associate." "I really have to go now." "Now wait a minute." "You can't just keep walking in and out of my life like this." "Who are you, where are you from, how are you able to do..." "We'll be together again, soon." "Somehow." "But I owe you my life, how can I ever repay..." "At least I've learned one thing:" "From now on, I'll have an ordinary-looking secretary." "I anticipated the way you'd feel... so I personally interviewed 15 prospective secretaries." "The one I chose was a Navy WAVE who scored well in all the aptitude tests... but she's duller than a fat lapdog after dinner." "She's waiting in your office right now." "Good." "I've had it up to here with pretty girls." "A man can get too much of a good thing." "Prince." "Yes, General." "Maj. Trevor, this is Yeoman First Class Diana Prince." " Nice to meet you, Diana." " Major." "No rank around here, let's just make it Steve and Diana, all right?" " Thank you, Steve." " Good." "I'll be off and let you two get acquainted." "Just a minute, General... did you get any further information on that Wonder Woman?" "Not a thing." "She vanished as quickly as she appeared." "Sort of captivated by her, were you?" "We'll talk about that another time, all right?" "Of course, I understand." "Take a letter, Diana." "Take a letter to..." "Say, Dear Miss..." "You're at a loss for words, sir?" "Yes, for the first time in my life." "You see, I wanted to tell someone something..." "And you couldn't say it." "I'm afraid I don't know how." "Just say it." "You mean straight out?" "Whatever the language, be honest." "You're very perceptive, Diana." "I'm a woman." "Where I was brought up, women were taught to respect honesty." "Now, I like that." "You know, we're going to get along just fine." "I'm sure we will."

"Cody?" "Hey, Zach." "What's up, Cody?" "Papi's sleeping." "I can tell." " Don't play with these, ok?" " Ok." "These are for grandpa." "Ok!" "Dad, wake up." "Wake up." "Take these." "Did you do your stretches today, dad?" " Hey, Cody." " Hey, Mom." "How you doing, kiddo?" "Did you get the cigarettes?" "Yeah." "Hey, Zach." "What's up, sis?" "Change of plans." "Can you take Cody?" "I've got a shift and then I was gonna go see Gabe before he leaves town." "But I gotta take dad home and Allen called and I'm supposed to meet up with him later." "I could leave him with dad..." "Cody. let's go for a ride." "Thank you." " Can I drive?" " Come on dad, I'll give you a ride back to yours." "Sure, go get her started." "Cody!" "Table 5!" "I told you." "I can't close up today." "Derell's not here yet." "You're stuck, kid." "This is a diner, Picasso." "Not the Louvre." "Come on!" "People are waiting." "Finally, man!" "I've gotta go." "Cody, let's jet." "Yo, Gabe!" "Hey hey, the Gabester!" "You're learning to skate I see." "I've got Cody in the car so let's go." "Baby on board, huh?" " I'm taking you to the lot, right?" " Yeah, cool." "Hey you should come up to S.B." "Wouldn't hurt to get some pussy you didn't get in high school." "You and Tori broke it off, right?" "Sorta..." ""Sort of"..." "Dude... he's five." "He's sleeping." "No I'm not!" "You are a sly one." "Yeah he likes to pretend he's sleeping." "Go figure." "That smells like Allen's cigarette." "How's Allen?" "Jeanne's boyfriend." "Of the week..." "Why don't you try and go to Santa Barbara Community College?" "You can crash at our house until you get your own place." "At least get the fuck out of San Pedro." "I don't think the whole student thing is gonna happen right now." "Why?" "Because you didn't get into that Art Institute place?" " Go somewhere else - "Art Institute place"..." "Whatever, it's alright." "That scholarship was my ticket..." "Well you are the king of scholarships." "Got me into your ritchie rich private school." "On the shore bus every day." "Rich fuck." "Fuck you, ghetto trash." "You ever declare a major?" "Larry said I should go for Communications." ""Communications" What does that mean?" "It means I'm set, dude." "Larry's gonna set me up with something at his firm." "So I can go back and get some more." "partying out of my system." "Move back here, buy a couple suits." "Start making some real cash." "You could have the same life if you wanted." " Alright man." " Alright dude." "Come up and hang out soon ok?" "Alright." "No, I mean it this time." "You've been up once." "That shit aint right." "Look, I'll get you a plane ticket Or just get in the car and drive." " Cool?" " Ok." "Code-man." "Keep it real, play boy." " Promise?" " Yeah." "Ok, ok, go..." "Gotta pee, gotta pee..." " Hey." " Hey." "I'm gonna go out for a session." "No, I thought you were staying." "I went shopping." "And I invited Ellen over." "What?" "I heard you're an eligible bachelor." "Not that you would ever tell me." "If you keep breaking up with Tori like that one of these times she's not coming back." "Jeanne, Jeanne, come in Jeanne." "Cody to Jeanne." "Cody, I don't wanna play right now." "Just watch the TV." "Listen, I'm heading out." "It's breaking hard." " Zach..." " Later, Codes." "When did you draw this one?" "A long time ago." "My mom used to work here just like yours." "So sometimes I would just wait out here... and draw." "Here, I'll show you how." "Go around there..." "Here, now you just fill it in." "Want the silver?" "Who would wait with you?" "When?" "When you drew these." "Nobody." "What about Papi?" "Well he was very hurt from when he fell and broke his back at work." "He's your daddy." "Yes." "And you're my daddy." "No, Cody." "I'm your uncle." "Your mommy is my sister." "That makes me your uncle." "Roy's your daddy." "Nope." "You're my daddy." "You're my daddy." "You're my daddy..." "Hey... keep drawing." "Hey, Zach!" "What's up." " Oh hey, Zach." " You're staying in tonight, right?" "Allen's playing at the Landmine and he put us on the guest list." "Looks like you're the babysitter tonight little brother." "Guess so." "Hello?" "Hey, monkey." "Hey, what are you doing?" "Guess..." "Babysitting?" "Bingo!" " Hey listen, can I give you a call back?" " Where are you?" "Are you there?" "Zach?" "I can't hear anything." " Uh, yeah" " Hey, I'm losing you." " Yeah, I'm here." " Can you hear me?" "Hello?" "Tori, I was..." "Just thinking about you and..." "Hello?" "Jesus Christ!" "You fucking idiot..." "Oh my God... get the opener." "Jeanne, what the fuck?" "!" "Shit, dad's mad." " I just put him to bed." " Oh come on, he can sleep through anything." "Just keep it down, alright?" " Did you get the cigarettes?" " Yeah, come here." "I thought your ghetto ass would be done breaking and entering by now." "Change of code, bitch!" "What are you gonna do, attack the garage next?" "That might not go over." "With the Pacific Bluff homeowners agreement, wouldn't wanna set your dad in trouble with the board." "Step-dad." "I left my longboard here." "That's cool." "How you doing, man?" "Good, you know." "So I haven't seen you since your graduation." "What have you been up to?" "Nothing." "Working, you know." "How about you?" "I'm in town for a few weeks." "House is empty, I could enjoy it." "Clear my head a little bit." "I thought you hated it down here?" "I miss the ocean." "Dude, you live in L.A." "I don't paddle out there." "You wanna go?" " Surfing?" " Uh... yeah." "I suppose there's still a few things I could teach you." "You will soon learn, butterfly." "Perhaps master underestimates student." "Bring it on, city boy!" " Looks like we picked a good time to come out." " Yeah, the tide's coming in." "Hey, where are you living now?" "With Jeanne in San Pedro." "It's just for now." "I'm trying to save up to get my own place." "Well close to my dad and work and stuff." "Well you guys are welcome to come out here anytime you want." "Just like old times, huh?" "Minus Gabe." "Right." "Hey... you see him much?" "A bit." "He came down last year with some of his friends." "Those guys like to party." "You can say that again." "How is Jeanne doing?" "You know, the same I guess?" "I try to help out as much as I can." "I cannot see her as a mom." "Cody must be getting big?" "Yeah, he's five already." "It's crazy." "Time just flies." "Trust me, it only gets faster." "Yeah, I bet." "Hey, monkey!" "Hey, monkey!" "What's up?" "What are you doing down here?" "Some beers, the dogs, and a fire on the beach." "Come down, grab a beer." " Cool, I'll be down in a sec." " Alright." "Do you wanna go grab a beer or do you wanna just take off?" "Yeah, I'll grab a beer." "Sounds good." "So who'd you come down with?" "Billy." "Who is that?" "Shaun!" " Gabe's brother?" " Yeah." "He doesn't come back much." "He's been pretty MIA." "Nice to see you." "It's good to see you too." "Going long!" "Are you gonna play or are you just gonna talk shit about me?" "Nice throw." "I'm Tori." "I remember you." "You were 13 and you had crimped hair." "But I remember you." "I bought you guys wine coolers." " I think you puked on my parents' deck." " Wow." " You still putting up with this guy's shit?" " Well we're both still here." "Right on." "That's why you never tell a woman how to cook a chicken." "I can't believe you got shot by a chick." "Shaun, right?" "Aren't you Gabe's bro?" "Yeah." "Heard you went all Hollywood writing movies or something." "Yeah, or something." "What's the deal?" "You're still with Tori then?" "Are you a fag?" "I mean she's hot." "So it's cool if I move in on that then?" "The swell's coming in." "Yeah it looks that way." " Trip seeing Tori." " Yeah, I bet." "You guys have been together for years." "Yeah we're just taking a little break right now." "She's my best friend." "Other than Gabe." "It's all good." "You dating anyone?" "No, I just broke up." "Yeah?" "Is that why you're really down here?" "No..." "Yeah, actally it is." "I moved out of our place and my new lease doesn't start until the end of the month." "That's cool." "I'm sorry." "Hello?" "I thought we weren't gonna leave him over there." "No, don't drive, Jeanne." "I'll go get him." "Yeah." "I gotta go." "Alright." "Tori said she needs a ride so..." "That's cool, I'll catch a ride from someone." "Great riding today." " Alright." " It was good seeing you man." " Yeah it was fun." " Ok cool." "I'm gonna leave." "Wait, come here..." "I'm tired." "Goodnight." "Did I write this shit?" "Oh my God." "Hello!" "Hello!" "Is anybody out there?" "Hello..." "Shaun?" " Who the fuck is this?" " Master does not know his own student." "Student is ashamed." "Master gets old." "Where'd you find these?" "Dude, they were just laying around the house." "Gabe and I used to stay up for hours on these." "I can't believe that these go all the way to your house." "All the way to the ghetto." "They were the latest technology back then." "I think your dad bought them in an airport." "when he missed a Christmas one year." "Step-dad." "Yeah, I remember that year." "I think he got me a talking dart board." "That sucks!" "Oh hey, I saw some of your tags today." "They're sweet." " Yeah?" " You've got the crane going on, looks cool." "Glad to see someone's doing their artwork." "Yeah, sometimes." "It was nice riding out there today." "Yeah." "What's up?" "." "Your batteries are probably gonna run out." "Probably haven't been replaced in 10 years." "What are you listening to?" "Nothing..." "He's a fighter." "He's gonna kick his ass." "But he wants to look good... kicking his ass." "He's wearing a sweet suit And he's gonna kick his ass." "Dude, it's breaking overhead Let's roll to the 'bu." "I'm working." "Really?" "That's too bad." "Alright, I'll see you later then." "Alright!" "Hold on, I'll come." "You might wanna change first." "Come on dude, let's go!" "Dude, it's a fucking circus out there." "I'll protect you from the big brewery." "Pussy!" "Go..." "I've got a better spot." "Better spot..." " It's nice." " Yeah." " The waves are great." " Just gotta figure out where this road is." "Oh right there!" "Careful." " Should've told me sooner." " Sorry." "This is rad!" "Sorry I never told you and Gabe about this place, man." "I just didn't want it to turn into the remnants of your keggers every Sunday morning." "This is my place I used to get away to come and just think." " And surf?" " And surf." "Let's go." "So you still thinking about applying to art school?" "I do street art now." "It's cool though, you know." "What are you working on?" "A book." "It's been like 3 years since the last one, right?" " Is is really long or something?" " Fuck off." "You sure didn't leave much out of the last one." "You read it?" "Who knew there'd be so much drama inside the gates of Pacific Bluffs." "I never knew." "You never really know what's happening inside." "That's what I liked about it." " I did embellish a little bit, it is fiction." " You changed a couple of names?" "When did you read it?" "When it came out." "Funny, Gabe never mentioned anything." "I never told him." "Why would he tell you?" "I just never knew that you knew about me." "What's your new one about?" "Still trying to figure that out." "Don't really have a subject yet." "But, I'll get it back." "I hope so." "You're good." " You really liked it?" " Yeah." "You hungry?" " Yeah, you wanna go to the shack or something?" " Yeah, definitely." "So, how long you staying around?" "I'm gonna be here for a while." "I was supposed to go to Barcelona to meet a friend next month but I'm kinda broke." "You should ask your stepfather for the cash." "That's not my style." "Have you ever been to Europe." "I've been to Florida once." "And that time your parents took me to Mexico." " That's about it." " That's right." " I don't travel much." " You should go, man." "I'd like to someday." "I mean, just for the art." "Go ahead, take it." "Nah, it's cool." " What?" "You guys like, in limbo or something?" " Yeah..." " I'm no good at that." " Takes a little practice." "And he drives right through the stop sign." "And out into some field." "He totally passed out." "He must've been wasted, man." "He was totally hammered." "He's a fucking idiot." "But he's my brother." "And I love him." "And my best friend." "Cheers!" "I'm gonna get another... you?" "Ok." "Here you go..." "Thanks, brother." " Wow." " Woah... what are you doing?" "Easy dude, it's ok." "I wanna look at it." "No one ever looks at that." "Wow, is that Cody?" "Yeah." "A sad Cody." "You could tell?" "Yeah." "And how you darkened it around his head." "This is incredible." "And there's no toys in his room." "That's awesome." "Yeah, he'd just gotten scolded." "He was trying to understand why..." "So he came into my room." "He hasn't left yet." "It's the only place he could sleep." "Ok, enough." "Adam's apple." " I'm trashed." " The cops are definitely coming." "Shit!" "What?" "You can make it." "Cody, let's go." "Where were you?" " Surfing." " All night?" "Yeah, what the fuck?" "I'm just asking." " Want a ride or not?" " Go." "Cody, let's go!" "I think I should reapply to CalArts..." "What's CalArts?" "It's a school, buddy." " I get to go to school next year." " Yep." "They already turned you down." "What made you think of that?" "It's just a thought." "Well don't get your hopes up." "I mean we're having a hard time, Zach." "I don't need you getting all down." "Yeah..." "Allen paints houses." "Maybe I can see if he can hook you up with a job." "You're heavy." " I'll be right in." " Alright, hurry up." "Hey, monkey." "Hey." "I'm late." "Hey." "Oh hey." "I hear you've been hanging out with Shaun." "Surfing." "Well you know about him, right?" "What about him?" "He's gay." "He's an old friend, Jeanne." "We've been surfing together since I was 8." "Yeah, well is that all?" "Yeah, what are you saying?" " Nothing." " Good." "Zach, I just don't think he's the best guy to be hanging out with all day half-naked... if you know what I mean." "And I don't want Cody around that." "What?" "Why?" "I'm late." "Get out." "Fine." "Zach, you're not a fag, right?" "Jeanne..." "You never tell me anything." "How am I supposed to know?" "What do you think?" "I think I don't wanna deal with that." "Hi dude." " I tried calling you." " Yeah." " Listen, I just wanted to..." " I'm really busy man." " Yeah, that's cool." " Yeah, I know." " Listen, man..." " Just drop it, dude." "Ok." "Hey, Shaun." "Hey." "What's up?" "I need help!" "Shaun, this is Cody." "Hi Cody, how are you man?" "I'm shaun." "I need help." "You need help?" "Alright..." "But dude you've got it all wrong." "You've gotta fortify the corners of the moat first" "Fortify?" "Codes, let's go." "I'm not done, I have to fortify!" "Shaun, do you mind looking after Cody for a second?" "We're cool." "Let's go for a walk." "No, I don't think I should leave Cody." "Come on, Shaun can watch him." "You guys go, it's fine." "Alright." "There we go." "This is gonna be a sweet walking bridge." "Oh look at that." "Shaun's great with Cody." "Listen, I'm sorry about the other day." "It was stupid." "Just make up your mind, Zach." "If you don't want to be together just don't pull that shit on me" "Ok." "If it's what you want then I'm gonna move on." "Alright." "You know what that means, right?" "Yeah, Tori." "I know what that means." "Just go, ok?" "Come on, Cody." "Time to go." "Five more minutes." "Shaun rocks." "No, Cody." "Let's go." "Shaun rocks!" "Can I jump on the sand castle?" "No, we gotta go." "Come on." "The tide's gonna get it anyway." "You might as well let him have at it." "Go ahead." "Alright man, great job!" "Come on, little man." "Sayonara." "Hey, I just wanted to talk to you about the other night." "What?" "I think you're really talented." "And I don't think you should throw it away." "I think you should do something with it." "Is that it?" "Yeah." "I'm late." "Tor, I'll call..." "Good morning." "What time is it?" "Why?" "You got somewhere to go?" "Yeah." "Yeah I gotta go." "Wait." "Listen, I gotta go." " Hey, Jeanne." " Hey." "Where's Cody?" "Like you care." "What are you talking about?" "Where were you last night?" "I called you like 3 times." "Did you need something?" "Yeah." "I need to know you're there." "I'm always there." "For Cody." "You weren't last night." "What do you need, Jeanne?" "Actually, Allen is going up to Portland this weekend." "He's gonna make a bid for a job." "He said he'd take me." "It would do me so much good to get out of here." " Allen?" " Yeah." " Allen?" " Uh huh." "Can you watch Cody this weekend?" "Please..." "I was hoping to have the weekend to myself." "Why?" "Who are you fucking?" "What?" "What are you talking about?" "Come on, I saw you gazing out the window." "I know it's not Tori." "Who is it?" "Nobody?" "Well I guess you're free then." "Come on, Zach." "You're all I've got." "I know." "Hey." "Hey." "Everything cool?" "Yeah..." "What are you doing?" "Going to work." "Come on over tonight." "I'll cook steaks." "Uh..." "I can't." "Come on." "I'll make margaritas." "Strong ones." "Who is that?" "No one." "Hold on." "So you can do it, right?" "I gotta tell Allen." "Fine." "Cool, thanks." "Shaun, I can't." "Why?" "Jeanne's leaving for the weekend and I gotta watch Cody." "So bring him." "No." "Why not?" "You don't care?" "No!" "That kid's great." "He says some funny shit." "Look, I'm turning the grill on at 8." "Ok." "Come on, dude." "I like these!" "I like these!" "Nah, you don't want those." "I think you should get these." "But I want real shoes." "But these are way cooler." "Ok." "Alright, let's go." "Hey!" "Ankle biter!" "What's up man, how are ya?" "Are you hungry?" "Starving!" "Starving?" "What would you like for dinner?" "He'll eat whatever." "I don't think I was asking him, was I?" " No." " No, I don't think so." "Cold ones are in the fridge." " What are you drinking?" " Red." "Larry had this sick bottle in the cellar." "I'll try that." "Alright, cool." "Alright, buddy." "Lay it on me." "What you gonna have for dinner tonight?" "Mac and Cheese" "Ok." "Hot dogs." "Hot dogs?" "Pancakes with..." "Chocolate chips." "Chocolate chips?" "Ok!" "and no vegetables." "No vegetables?" "Are you sure?" "Sure, sure?" "Ok." "Alright, buddy." "I want you to do me a favor..." "Go look out at the ocean." "Beautiful waves coming in right now." "I'm gonna make your dinner." "Somehow." " Are we still in California?" " Yeah, buddy." "Where are you going?" "I don't think we have that stuff in the house." "Seriously, dude." "Don't worry about it." "No, I want to." "Little kids are supposed to be spoiled." "Besides, I'll be back in five minutes, ok?" "I'm gonna go check on him." "Where did Jeanne say she was going?" "She's going to Oregon." "She thinks there's some job up there worth checking out." "I admire what you're doing for Cody." "You don't have to." "Yeah." "I do." "It's a choice, Zach." "It's family." "I'm the only one left." "You get that from your mom." "Yeah, I know." "Lucky me." "Come here." "What?" "Come here." "I need to go check..." "He's fine." "He's asleep." "He's ok." "Just come here." "You sure you guys don't wanna stay?" "He doesn't like waking up in strange places." "Gets enough of that when I'm not around." "Take this." "What is it?" "CalArts application." "Shaun, I'm not going down this road again." "Take it." "Thanks for tonight." "Ok." "Bye." "So you gonna head back up to L.A. soon?" "I'm pretty happy here." "Hey... why don't you come with me?" "Yeah, right." "I'm serious." "You could come with me." "I live right near CalArts." "You're so beautiful." "Shut up!" "Hey, learn to take a compliment." "Thanks." "So glad you're here." "Me too." "Yo, bro." "What do you know!" "Gabe!" "Come on, come on!" "Shaunypoo!" "Your little brother Gabe's back!" "Where's my princess big brother?" "What?" "You got a guy in there you slut?" "No!" "Ooohh, a girl?" "Yeah, right!" "Did I interrupt your beating off, or what?" "No, I was sleeping." "Sleeping?" "With the door locked?" "Ok, weirdo..." "No, hey, come here dude!" " Good to see you too, bro." " I missed you so much." "There it is, yeah." "Dude, so what are you doing here man?" "I thought you were moving into your new place this week." "No, no." "The thought of... moving into an empty place is just depressing, you know?" "Yeah?" "Well it's pretty empty here." "You doing alright?" "Yeah, I'm good." " You sure?" " Yeah!" "I heard it was pretty tough there for a while." "Yeah, it was tough." "Well don't worry, Romeo." "You'll find a new one." "Yeah, thanks." "So, you ready to hang up your pink Gucci suit and come bail out with your real friends?" "Yeah, ok." "Right on, I'll call Zach." "Ok, good." "Who was that?" "June's probably cleaning today." "But June comes on Tuesdays." "Yes she does." "Pool guy?" "I dunno." "You ok?" " Yeah." " Yeah?" "You look a bit freaked out." "No, I'm just tired." " Alright." " Just tired." "There anything good to eat in the fridge or is it stocked with low-carb fag food cos I'm fucking starving man." "Just a lot of fag food." "Yo, burger boy." "What up?" "What are you doing down here?" "Cherie's back in town for the weekend." "Told her I'd come down." "I thought there's plenty of pussy in S.B." "Oh yeah." "But the girls there are fucking teases man." "Whatever." "Party's on for tonight." "Everyone's coming." "We'll go grab a quick surf sesh... and get started." "I'm not off for another half hour." "No worries." "I already fixed your spare board." "The one you've been keeping at the house." "I saw it out back and I fixed it." "Grabbed it, patched it all up..." "Oh yeah... that board." "Man, I left that there a while ago." "Whatever." "So I'll see you around five tonight?" " Ok." " Alright, cool." "Nice shirt, by the way." "Dude, so what's the latest?" "Are you and Tori really over this time?" "Yeah." "Glad to hear it." "It's about time." "So what are you doing then?" "Just playing the field?" "I talked to a bunch of people and no one sees you anywhere." "Everyone's gone man." "Yo, there he is!" "You lasted pretty long out there, old man." "My big bro on a longboard." "Never thought I'd see the day." "Give me 10 years and call me back about that." "Yeah, right." "I'll never be on a longboard." "Ever." "Alright, I'm getting beers." "What's up, babe?" "Shaun..." "Shaun, just chill." "Hey, Codes." "What's wrong?" "Cody, go to your room for a second." "Please tell me that he's just confused." "What do you mean?" "Zach, why didn't you tell me?" "Tell you what?" "Ok, your confusion is one thing..." "But bringing Cody into this is just totally fucked." "I didn't bring him to anything!" " You brought him to Shaun!" " He likes Shaun!" "Shaun's better than..." "You know what, forget it." "It's not about Shaun, it's about us." "It is about our family." "What about it?" "Cody lost his father." "He needs you." "He needs a positive man in his life." "I'm sorry I'm no Allen." "You don't know shit." "He's a little kid." "He's not gonna understand this." "You mother of the fucking year now?" "Oh fuck you." "He'd be lost without me!" "Fuck you, Zach!" "Zach, are you trying to fuck up our family?" "Yeah, Jeanne." "That's what I'm trying to do." "You know?" "Cody has a sense of family because of me." "Mom died and I got the family fucking gene." "Oh, I see." "So it's the 'family' gene that's making you run off and have your big gay wedding?" "You gonna make the family proud?" "Is that what you're scared of?" "This isn't about Shaun, or me." "This is about you being left." "I'm the only one who hasn't run off on you." "Sweet." "But go ahead, judge me." "I don't care." "You know?" "You're right." "Yeah, guys have left me." "But, Zach, now you are just a Summer fuck, ok?" "You've reduced yourself to a little piece of ass so, bravo!" "You are doing really well for yourself." "Do you think that is a good upbringing for him?" " Yes." " Do you?" "No, I don't know." "Well... if it is do you think you'd have to hide it from me, from Gabe, from Tori?" "I don't know!" "I don't fucking know, ok?" "I just want what's best for Cody." "Well so do I!" "Sorry." "Oh God." "Hey." "I need some time." "I just don't know if this is really what I want." "Seems like what you want." "I just don't know if this is what I want." "For good." "What's that supposed to mean?" "It's not as easy for me as it is for you." "You know, this is all totally new to me." "We'll get through the Gabe thing..." "No it's not that, Shaun." "You just don't get it, ok?" "I can't just take whatever I want." "My life is not like that." "You'll never get what you want unless you take it." "Take it..." "You and Gabe have always been able to point and take." "No questions asked." "You don't realize it's not like that for other people." "It's fucking ignorant." "Oh and you and Jeanne just blame everyone else because you can't do anything for yourselves?" "What do you call that?" "Look... fuck!" "Why are you doing this?" "Don't go all emotional and faggy on me, ok?" "What?" "I'm sick of being your childhood wet dream, Shaun." "Find another fucking fantasy!" "You know what?" "You're a fucking coward!" "I'm done." "You're a fucking coward." "I'm done." "Get out!" "We're closed!" "What's up, bro?" "Good, brother." "I'm so hungover..." "Kitchen's closed." "Do you want a coffee?" "Yes, please." "So what's up?" "I'm taking off later today." "Never saw you leave last night." " So..." " So?" "Why didn't you tell me?" "Tell you what?" "I don't care... at all." "I don't know what you're talking about." "Have you always known?" "Seriously, dude." "Ok." "The fact that it's my brother is totally weird." "I know." "No, like... really really fucking weird." "Alright, I got it." "I'm sorry." "Don't be sorry." "Don't tell anyone, ok?" "Ok." "So are you going with other guys?" "No!" "I heard they give better head." "They give better head, don't they?" "Dude, stop!" " Do they swallow?" " Gabe!" "Do you think he's hot?" "Shut the fuck up, dude!" "Fine." " So, where'd you go last night?" " I slept in my car." "Why didn't you just crash at mine?" "This doesn't have to change things." "Doesn't change things?" "You're right, Gabe." "I used to be the guy you came and talked to, remember?" "Before Shaun." "This isn't exactly easy on me." "This isn't easy on you, right?" "You know what?" "It's over anyway." "So just leave it, dude." "I've gotta clean up and you've gotta leave." "Hey, we're still bros, alright?" "I mean it." "Come here." "Can I please just come in and crash?" "Jeanne?" "What?" "Have you seen my portfolio?" "I can't find it anywhere." "I don't know." "The portfolio I was putting together for CalArts." "No, I haven't seen it." " What's today?" " I think the 30th." "Fuck!" "Zachy, what are you doing?" "They turned you down." "Why do you wanna put yourself through that again?" "I just thought I'd give it another shot, you know?" "Well don't bother." "That place is full of rich kid painters and they're all gonna end up working at art stores anyway." "Yeah, maybe." "They're hiring at the Ocenette." "Do you want me to put in a good word?" "It's a good job." "We could use the money." "How come we never see Shaun anymore?" "Sometimes that happens, Cody." "People leave sometimes." "Why did he leave?" "It's complicated." "A grown-up thing." "Can we say hi to him even though he left?" "He was cool." "No." "Sometimes people leave and never come back." "Like my daddy?" "Yes, Cody." "Like your daddy." "Hey." "Hey, Jeanne." "Rick is on today and he's a nightmare." "So steer clear." "Got it." "Hey, Cody." "Are you ready?" "Give me your pen." "Bye, kiddo." "You have 1 new message." "Hey, Zach." "It's Kelly Burke, from CalArts." "I got your portfolio and your application." "Kinda surprised to see that you applied again." "But really happy that you did." "So I returned the portfolio to the Ocean Beach address that you sent it from." "There's a couple of things I need to go over with you before I can continue with it." "So give me a call when you get this." "I'm at extension 20 and I hope to hear from you." "Alright, take care." "To replay, press 4." "To erase, press 7." "To return this call, press 8." "To save, press 9." "To hear all other options, press star." "Jeanne, get up!" "Get up!" "What are you doing?" "Sleeping." "Yeah, with some help." "Wait, Zach, wait." "Allen got that job." "Yeah?" "In Portland and I gotta go with him." "I can make good money there." "But they don't take kids." "What do you mean they don't take kids?" "I don't know." "They just don't take kids." "Allen's not really into it anyway." "Cody's gonna have to stay here with you and Papi..." "At least until we get set up." "With me and dad for how long?" "I dunno." "Six months... a year maybe?" "You know he can't stay with dad." "I know." "But he can't come with me." "Zach, the Oceanette is not cutting it." "I can make three times that up there." "Is there any more?" "Well I'm full, do you want mine?" "Yeah." "I do." "You like it?" "Yeah." " Mom?" " Yeah." "Can I go to Oregon too?" "Cody, I told you." "You gotta stay here and keep your uncle Zach company so he doesn't get lonely." "Can you do that for mommy?" "Hello?" "No, he's not here." "Hey, monkey." "Hey." "I got in." "What?" "To CalArts, they took me back." "I don't know how I'll do it." "You'll have to figure out a way." "If you pass it up You'll be stuck here." "I don't feel stuck here." "Yes you do." "Jeanne wants to go to Oregon." "Maybe she'll have to stay." "Cody is her responsibility." "I can't leave him." "Figure it out." "Cheer up!" "Can we just celebrate?" "There's something I really need to tell you." "I already know." "I've known for a while." "You are the only reason I wish I wasn't." "None of this other shit matters." "But what really sucks..." "Is that I've always wanted to be everything to you." "Always dreamed of providing you with anything you ever wanted or needed." "Do you love him?" "Oh come on..." "Seriously." "He's a good guy, Zach." "You don't belong to people forever." "Then why bother?" "Isn't it worth it?" "Yeah." " Tori." " Yeah?" "Can I stay with you just for the night?" "I have nowhere else to go and I can't face Jeanne." "Of course." "But you can't fuck me." "Come on..." "Say something." "You say something." "Student was bad." "Made bad judgment call." "Now see truth." "Where are you?" "Getting warmer..." "Colder..." "Turn around." "I'm so sorry." "You'd better be." "You sent in my application?" "Yeah." "Why are you here?" "What changed?" "I did." "Will you help me?" "You serious?" "Of course." "Anything." "Anything?" "Yes." "I got in." " Full ride." " Yes!" "I knew it!" "Are you serious?" "Yeah, I really wanna go this time." "Of course." "I turned down the scholarship before." "My mom..." "Cody... everything." "It just couldn't work out." "I never told anyone." "I really wanna go this time." "And you did say you lived close." "Well then let's do it." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "I'm so proud of you, man." "So proud." " Shaun!" " Hey, kiddo..." "Allen, take Cody inside, ok?" "Zach, what is he doing here?" "What?" "Are you bailing on me?" "Bailing?" "Jeanne, you're the one leaving your son!" "If you don't like this option then just stay." "Five more minutes!" "Jesus, Cody." "Shut the fuck up you..." "Dont you ever talk to him like that!" " Zach!" " Allen!" "Take a walk baby, please?" "For me." "Please..." "Ok, ok." " Easy, easy." " Zach, what the fuck!" "Jesus Christ." "I'm gonna go inside and check on him." "Shaun is really great, Jeanne." "He really cares about Cody..." "and me." "If he can't be with you, this is the next best thing." "I'm gonna make it work." "Jeanne, take a look around." "Every kid should be so lucky." "What else could you possibly want for him?" "I got into CalArts." "I know." "You know?" "Were you gonna tell me?" "They told me that you turned it down last time." "I'm not going to again." "No, you shouldn't." "He'll be fine with us..." "Or stay, it's your choice." "Zach, if this thing with Allen doesn't work out..." "It's best that he's here with you." "He's in good hands I promise." "Yeah." "You ready?"

"Where are they?" "I don't know." "Dad!" "Uncle Merrill!" "Dad!" "Morgan!" "Bo?" "Bo?" "Bo, where's Morgan?" "Bo?" "Are you in my dream, too?" " This is not a dr..." " Dad!" "Hey..." "Honey..." "Morgan?" "What's happening?" "The dogs were barking..." "woke us up." "Are you hurt?" "I think God did it." "Did what, Morgan?" "Look, Lee, I don't even care if it was him." "And you can just have a word with him, and that'd be enough for me." "See, it was strange finding the crops that way." "The kids were confused by it, and, uh, it'd sure take the strangeness away if I knew it was just Lionel and the Wolfington brothers messing around, that's all." "At the movies?" "Are you sure?" "All right, then." "Uh, thanks for your patience, Lee." "Yeah." "Bye." "Houdini peed." "I think he's sick." "Why don't you take him outside?" "I'll call Dr. Crawford." "He doesn't treat animals." "Well, he'll know what to do." "Oh." "That was quick, Caroline." "I only called you folks two hours ago." "Old Mrs. Kendleman twisted her ankle, as she puts it, diving for her life when a bunch of school kids rode down the sidewalk on skateboards." "She went down to Thornton's store this morning and started spitting on the new skateboards." "Spitting!" "By the time I got there," "Mrs. Kendleman had sprayed the whole damned place." "And she must have had a cold or something." "I'm telling you, I won't eat for a week." "So, what happened to your crops?" "Dad's gonna burn these again." "It's contaminated." "You don't even know what that word means." "It's not contaminated." "It's just tap water." "Pour it in his bowl." "It tastes funny." "It does not." "And besides, he licks his butt every day." "I don't think he'll mind." "Houdini?" "Bo, don't run." "What's wrong, boy?" "Stop it, Houdini." "Look at where it's bent over, Father." "It's not broken." "Now, what kind of machine can bend a stalk of corn over without breaking it?" "Can't be by hand." "It's too perfect." "It doesn't sound much like Lionel Prichard and the Wolfington brothers." "They can't take a piss without wetting the front of their pants." "I don't think anyone else around here has had any problems." "I was over at Theo Henry's farm yesterday afternoon, and he would have mentioned something." "Why were you at Theo's place?" "Some animals around the county have been acting funny... and some of them violent." "What is it, a virus?" "I don't think so, Father." "They're more edgy, you know, and alert." "It's almost like they act when they smell a predator around... peeing on themselves and everything." "Caroline... please stop calling me "Father."" "What's wrong?" "I don't hear my children." "He fell on me." "He wanted to kill Bo." "Did he hurt you?" "No." "I'm so sorry, Morgan." "Where were you?" "Houdini's sick." "Tie Isabel up to the back of the shed, please, and make sure the knot's very tight." "What's the matter?" "There's a monster outside my room." "Can I have a glass of water?" "What's wrong with the water next to your bed?" "It tastes old." "What are you thinking about?" "Why do you talk to Mom when you're by yourself?" "Makes me feel better." "Does she ever answer back?" "No." "She never answers me either." "What?" "Lionel Prichard and the Wolfington brothers are back." "It's time for an ass-whupping." "This is not an intelligent way to approach this." "Lee is a friend of mine." "This is his son." "Yeah, we'll be doing Lee a favor." "All right, listen..." "we both go outside, move around the house in opposite directions." "We act crazy, insane with anger... make them crap in their pants, force them around till we meet up on the other side." "Explain "act crazy."" "You know, curse and stuff." "You want me to curse?" "You don't mean it." "It's just for show." "What?" "Well, it won't be convincing." "It doesn't sound natural when I curse." "Just make noises, then." "Explain "noises."" "Are you gonna do this or what?" "No, I'm not." "All right, you want them stealing something in the house next time?" "On the count of three..." " 1..." " All right." "2... 3!" "Aaah!" "I'm insane with anger!" "We're gonna beat your ass, bitch!" "We're gonna tear your head off!" "I'm losing my mind!" "It's time for an ass-whupping!" "I cursed." "I heard." "How did he get..." "Are you sure this is Lionel Prichard?" "You like that?" "You got an old baby monitor around?" "Bo had an old baby monitor." "You can use Bo's baby monitor as a walkie-talkie." " You can?" " Mm-hmm." "It only works one way, but that'll do fine." "That is, until someone gets you an old walkie-talkie left over at the station." "Stop!" "It's hideous!" "Get it off!" "L-I know what to do." "Hey, Bo... turn that down till Officer Paski leaves." "Doy-da!" "You're too old to still be doing this." "You take a glass of water, and you finish it." "Now, what's wrong with this one?" "It has dust in it." "This one?" "A hair." "This one?" "Morgan took a sip, and it has his amebas in it." "My turn." "So, how are you, Merrill?" "Fine." "How is work at the gas station?" "Stimulating." "I never got a chance to tell you, but l-I thought your moving in here with your brother after... it was a nice thing to do." "Well, I don't think I'm helping much." "You are." "Sorry." "Okay, so far I have, "It was very dark."" "Yes, it was." "You can't describe him at all?" "Don't you think that's kind of odd?" "A little." "I don't know whether to look for a giant or a midget." "No, he definitely wasn't a midget." "Okay." "So he was tall?" "L-I would say so, yes." "Probably." "Over 6 feet?" "It was very dark." "Yes, it was." "How certain are you that this was a male?" "Oh, I don't know..." "I don't know any girls who could run like that." "I don't know, Merrill." "I've seen some of those women on the Olympics." "They can run like the wind." "This guy got on our roof in, like, a second." "O-Our roof is 10 feet high." "They have women's high jumping in the Olympics." "They got these Scandinavian women who can jump clean over me." "Caroline, I know you're making a point here, but I just don't know what it is." "An out-of-town woman stopped by the diner yesterday afternoon and started yelling and cussing because they didn't have her favorite cigarettes at the vending machine." "She scared a couple of the customers." "No one's seen her since." "And my point is, we don't know anything about the person you saw, and we should just keep all possibilities available." "Dad, where's the remote?" "I don't know, baby." "Why don't you check in the sofa cushions?" "Excluding the possibility that a female Scandinavian Olympian was running around outside our house last night, what else might be a possibility?" "I'm not done asking questions, and I don't appreciate sarcasm." "Do you two have anyone who might have a grudge or something against you... maybe a-a church member who... who might not have liked the fact that you left the church?" "I don't think so." "Okay, I was out of line with the whole female- Scandinavian-Olympian thing." "It's just, I'm pretty strong, and I'm pretty fast." "And I was running as fast as I could, and this guy, he was..." "he was just toying with us." "There's only food under the sofa." "Baby, why don't you just change the channel on the television?" "I did." "And?" "Same show's on every station." "Every station?" "Bo, turn up the volume." "Crop signs first emerged in the late '70s with renewed interest in extraterrestrial life." "They died out by the early '80s, dismissed as hoaxes." "This new resurgence is wholly different." "The speed and the quantity in which it has appeared implies the coordination of hundreds of individuals over many countries." "There are only a limited number of explanations." "Either this is one of the most elaborate hoaxes ever created, or basically... it's for real." "Extraterrestrials." "What in God's name is going on?" "I did some research after I saw your crops." "Two or three guys can make a design the size of the one in your field overnight using just boards and ropes." "Really?" "That's how these things have been done in the past." "But there are so many now." "How could so many people be in on it?" "I can't think straight." "I'm..." "I'm gonna go back to the station and have a cup of Edgar's coffee and..." "and try to think clear." "And after that, I'll..." "I might make some calls." "But I'll tell you something... what I said in there, it still goes." "Your... your family has been through a lot." "And the last thing these children need to do is worry about some crazy things happening in the world." "Now, take them into town and get their minds and your mind on everyday things, hmm?" "Good medicine." "That's good advice." "And you take care of yourself..." "Graham." "The footage you're watching was shot yesterday afternoon by a 34-year-old local cameraman in Bangalore, a southern city of India." "It's the 18th reported crop sign found in that country in the last 72 hours." "Uncle Merrill, will you turn on the radio?" "They are signs intended to be seen from the sky..." "No radio either." "Just for a while." "Book money?" "Sure." "Just one." "Be back for pizza in 15." "It's just a bunch of crock." "They're trying to sell sodas." "It's plain and simple." "Been watching these reports since morning." "I have seen 12 soda commercials so far... 12!" "You have any books on extraterrestrials?" "Now, don't tell me you believe this horse manure." "As a matter of fact, I think we have one." "Came by mistake in a shipment... decided to keep it for the city people." "Last row, third book on the left, honey." "Why is no one saying the obvious?" "These are just copycats." "Someone somewhere does the first one..." "It was asthma medicine, right, Father?" "For Morgan Hess." "And it's not "Father" anymore." "In less than an hour, a couple hundred people get the same brilliant idea, and here we are, on the verge of mass hysteria." "Can I ask you a favor, Father?" "I need to clear my conscience." "Will you listen to me?" "Tracey..." "I am not a reverend anymore." "I haven't been for six months." "You know this." "All this stuff on TV... two girls came in here talking about the end of the world..." "I'm just a little scared." "Please, I need to clear my conscience." "I've got it figured." "You do?" "I've had two separate folks tell me there have been strangers around these parts last couple nights." "Can't tell what they look like 'cause they're staying in the shadows... covert like." "Nobody's been hurt, mind you." "And that's the giveaway." "I see." "It's called "probing."" "It's a military procedure." "You send out a reconnaissance group... very small..." "to check things out." "Not to engage but to evaluate the situation... evaluate the level of danger, make sure things are all clear." "Clear for what?" "For the rest of them." "Yeah?" "You got a pamphlet or something I can read?" "Sure." "Thanks." "You didn't used to play baseball, did ya?" "Shit, I know you." "You're Merrill Hess." "I was there the day you hit that 507-footer over the left-field wall..." "set the record." "Man, that thing had a motor on it." "It's still the record, right?" "Got the bat at home o-on the wall." "You've got two minor-league home-run records, don't ya?" "Five." "Why weren't you in the pros making stacks of cash and getting your toes licked by beautiful women?" "'Cause he has another record most people don't know about." "He has the minor-league strikeout record." "Hello, Lionel." "Merrill's a class-A screw-up." "He would just swing that bat as hard as he could every time." "Didn't matter what the coaches said, didn't matter who was on base." "He would just whip that bat through the air as hard as he could." "Looked like a lumberjack chopping down a tree." "Merrill here has more strikeouts than any two players." "You really got the strikeout record?" "Felt wrong not to swing." "It's contaminated." "Carl, there's something wrong with our water." "Your water's fine." "Bo has this thing about her drinking water." "She had it her whole life." "It's like a tick people have, except it's not a tick." "Is that right?" "13!" "## Don't give me that so-so-soda ##" "## That same old cola ##" "## I wanna pop ##" " ## Pop, pop I wanna..." "Shasta ##" " I'll take it." "I cursed 37 times last week." "I said the "F" word a couple times, but mostly..."shits"" "and..."bastards."" "Is "douche bag" a curse?" "I suppose that would depend on its usage." "How about, "John, you're a douche bag for kissing Barbara"?" "It's a curse." "Then it's not 37." "It's 71." "Pharmacy crowded?" "I don't want any one of you spending time with Tracey Abernathy alone." "Is that understood?" "Is that him?" "Yeah." "Who is he?" "What is it?" "It's Bo's baby monitor." "I found it in the basement." "I'm gonna use it as a walkie-talkie." "What if it's catching a signal from them?" "It's not." "But it wasn't working." "Morgan, this crop stuff is about a bunch of nerds who never had a girlfriend in their lives." "They're, like, 30, and they work up little codes together, and they analyze Greek mythology and make up secret societies where other guys who never had girlfriends before can join in." "They do stupid crap like this to feel special." "It's a scam." "Nerds were doing it 25 years ago, and new nerds are doing it again." "It's just static, Morgan, all right." "Turn it up." "See." "It's a code." "Why can't they get girlfriends?" "Can I see that, please?" "It's noise." "It's broken, Morgan." "It's just gonna keep doing this." "Maybe some new batteries..." "We might lose the signal." "This is exactly what the nerds want." "I'm getting out now." "Nobody move." "Voices." "Did you hear that?" "Not English, though." "You heard the voices, right, Uncle Merrill?" "I heard them, Morgan." "Probably picking up another baby monitor." "That's right." "Let me see it." "Stop!" "See, this is why we're not watching TV." "People get obsessed." "I'm letting go now." "No, Dad!" "Don't do it!" "You'll lose the signal." "Don't let go." "It gets clearer the higher you hold it." "I got it." "Bo, honey, I don't want you climbing on the car." "Come here." "Stop!" "There's two of them talking." "Isabel, you're gonna feel very silly when this turns out to be all just make-believe." "You're wasting your time here!" "I'm not gonna report this or anything you do to my crops to the news or TV or anybody!" "You're not going to get famous!" "Okay." "Let's turn on the TV." "It first appeared 52 minutes ago." "Mexico City officials as well as U. S. Officials have confirmed that these are not aircraft from either government's air force." "The first sighting was made by an Air Mexico 747 en route from Mazatlán to New York as the unidentified crafts entered Mexico City air space." "They were not detected by radar by either country." "The nerds were right." "We have to tape this." "My ballet recital." "Listen, Bo, this is very important." "Everything people have written about in science books is going to change." "The history of the world's future is on the TV right now." "We need to record this so you can show your children this tape and say you were there." "For your children, Bo." "My ballet recital." "Dad!" "Find another tape." "Uncle Merrill, I'm using your tape." "You are seeing a live feed from our affiliate down here in Mexico City." "This image has not been adjusted or enhanced in any way." "What you're seeing is real." "It's unbelievable." "Everything they wrote in science books is about to change." "I told you." "Some people are probably thinking this is the end of the world." "That's true." "Do you think it could be?" "Yes." "How can you say that?" "That wasn't the answer you wanted?" "Couldn't you pretend to be like you used to be?" "Give me some comfort." "People break down into two groups when they experience something lucky." "Group number one sees it as more than luck, more than coincidence." "They see it as a sign... evidence that there is someone up there watching out for them." "Group number two sees it as just pure luck, a happy turn of chance." "I'm sure the people in group number two are looking at those 14 lights in a very suspicious way." "For them, the situation isn't 50-50." "Could be bad, could be good." "But deep down, they feel that whatever happens, they're on their own." "And that fills them with fear." "Yeah, there are those people." "But there's a whole lot of people in the group number one." "When they see those 14 lights, they're looking at a miracle." "And deep down, they feel that whatever's going to happen, there'll be someone there to help them." "And that fills them with hope." "See, what you have to ask yourself is, what kind of person are you?" "Are you the kind who sees signs, sees miracles?" "Or do you believe that people just get lucky?" "Or look at the question this way... is it possible that there are no coincidences?" "I was at this party once." "I'm on the couch with Randa McKinney." "She was just sitting there looking beautiful, staring at me." "I go to lean in and kiss her... and I realize I have gum in my mouth." "So I turn, take out the gum, stuff it in a paper cup next to the sofa, and turn around." "Randa McKinney throws up all over herself." "I knew the second it happened it was a miracle." "I could have been kissing her when she threw up." "That would have scarred me for life." "I may never have recovered." "I'm a miracle man." "Those lights are a miracle." "There you go." "So, which type are you?" "Do you feel comforted?" "Yeah, I do." "Then what does it matter?" "I never told you the last words that Colleen said before they let her die." "She said, "See."" "Then her eyes glazed a bit." "And then she said, "Swing away."" "You know why she said that?" "Because the nerve endings in her brain were firing as she died, and some random memory of us at one of your baseball games just popped into her head." "There is no one watching out for us, Merrill." "We are all on our own." "What do you know?" "Well, there was an accident... drunk driving, they weren't sure..." "He wasn't drunk." "Ray fell asleep at the wheel." " Is he okay?" " Yeah." "That was the first thing Colleen asked, too." "She's talking." "What ambulance is she in?" "She's not in an ambulance, Father." "For the kids' protection." "All they were doing was watching TV from 5:00 a.m." "I felt like they were getting obsessed, like you said." "They should be playing furry, furry rabbit or tea party or something." "What's furry, furry rabbit?" "It's a game, isn't it?" "Anyways, they closed the schools." "And there's been some interesting developments." "What time is it?" "11:00 a.m." "They're gone, but they're not really gone." "We just can't see them." "Early this morning, a bird flew into the area where the lights were hovering last night." "It stopped dead in the air and fell straight down." "They caught it on tape." "They've been playing it all morning." "The footage looks like the bird flew into a wall in the sky." "They found the bird." "His..." "his head was crushed in." "They think they have some kind of invisible-shield thing going, l-like an optical illusion." "They're still there, hovering." "Some people think there's more of them now..." "All over the place, over us, even." "There's a theory about the c... the crop circles." "They could be some kind of... some kind of landmark, visual mapping system so they could navigate, coordinate... makes sense." "Want to hear a story?" "Is it true?" "So the aliens can't read our minds." "Oh." "Oh, of course." "They tell you everything in this book." "It says they're probably very small, like my height, because as their brains develop, there was no use for physical development." "It also says they're probably vegetarians because they would have realized the benefits of such a diet." "Who wrote this book?" "Scientists who have been persecuted for their beliefs." "That means they're unemployed." "If you're gonna make fun of it, then forget it." "This is serious." "I don't know what got into me." "There are pictures." "Dr. Bimbu, one of the authors of the book..." " Bimbu?" " Dad." "I just asked his name." "You had a tone." "He said there are two reasons why extraterrestrials would visit us... to make contact in the spirit of exploration and furthering the knowledge of the universe, or the other reason..." "they're hostile." "They've used up all the resources on their planet, and they're looking to harvest our planet next." "Here." "Looks a little like our house, doesn't it?" "Same windows." "That's weird." "Yeah, oh, yeah." "That's enough from Dr. Bimbu for now." "Everybody in this house needs to calm down and eat some fruit or something." "Hello?" "Father?" "Hello?" "I'm going out for a few minutes." "No one leaves this house..." "no one." "Where you going?" "Ray Reddy's house." "Why?" "I think he just called here." "You don't think something bad will happen, do you, Morgan?" "Why?" "You have one of your feelings again?" "Is it bad?" "I won't let anything bad happen to you." "I don't want you to die." "Who said I was gonna die?" "Who said I was gonna die?" "Hello, Ray." "What happened?" "I wrote your number down to call you." "It's been sitting next to the phone for 6 months." "When I knew it was inside the house..." "I couldn't think of any other number to call." "I panicked." "Thank you for coming, Father." "You're welcome, Ray." "I worked so long that night." "I've never fallen asleep driving before... never since." "Don't." "Most of the ride home, there wasn't a car in sight in either direction." "If I'd have fallen asleep then," "I would have ended up in a ditch with a headache." "And it had to be at that right moment... that 10, 15 seconds when I passed her walking." "It was like it was meant to be." "I guess if this is the end of the world," "I'm screwed, right?" "People who kill reverends' wives aren't exactly ushered to the front of the line in Heaven." "Wh..." "Where are you going, Ray?" "To the lake." "The way I see it... these places marked in crops and such... none of them are really near water." "I don't think they like water." "Can't be any worse than here." "Did you see something, Ray?" "I know what I've done to you." "I made you question your faith." "I'm truly sorry for what I've done to you and yours." "All right." "And don't open my pantry, Father." "I found one of them in there and locked him in." "The startling footage we're about to show you was photographed by a 42-year-old, Romero Valadarez." "This video was taken yesterday afternoon at his son's 7th birthday in the city of Passo Fundo, Brazil." "It was sent to the local news bureau there and sent to us via satellite just a few minutes ago." "All initial opinions are this is genuine." "What you're about to see may disturb you." "Move, children!" "Vámanos!" "Oh!" "Hello?" "The police are here." "I am with them." "I am a police officer." "I just want to talk with you." "We know all about the hoax." "We already took some of your friends downtown in a paddy wagon." "Just tell us your name and why you did it, and we'll give you the same deal we gave the others." "Don't throw your life away, son." "Oh!" "Ah!" "Oh!" "Their skin changes colors." "That's why we couldn't see them that night." "Tell me something, Morgan." "Uh... in this book of yours... did they happen to detail what would happen if they were hostile?" "Yes." "It said they would probably invade." "They would use ground tactics..." "hand-to-hand combat." "They wouldn't use our technology or fight an airborne battle 'cause they know eventually we would use nuclear weapons." "Then the planet would be useless to them." "How could anyone possibly know that information?" "It's ridiculous." "What else did it say?" "They said there are one of two outcomes of an invasion." "One, they fight and are defeated and have to return again with full forces hundreds, maybe even thousands, of years later." "What's two?" "They win." "I'm sorry, what..." "what book is this?" "Is this really happening?" "I heard a theory that, uh, they don't like places near water." "Maybe we'd be safe from them near a lake or something." "Sounds made-up." "I saw one of them at Ray Reddy's house." "I can't be sure, but I got the distinct feeling he wanted to harm me." "So... we can choose to believe this lake idea, pack up, and go, or we can stay here, hide inside our home, wait it out." "We might be overreacting, but I'm willing to live with that." "Either way, at least we'll be together." "All those in favor of the lake idea, raise your hand." "Yeah." "All those in favor of home, raise your hand." "Okay." "My vote counts as two." "That's bullshit!" "You're cheating!" "Morgan, calm down." "I get two votes because I represent two parents here." "We don't know anything yet." "We'll be safe here anyway." "I don't want to leave home." "This is where we lived with Mom." "That's got nothing to do with this." "I change my vote." "You can't change your vote." "All those in favor of home, raise your hand." "This is ridiculous." "You lose, 3-2." "We're going to board up every window in this house." "How do we know boards will do anything?" "Because they seem to have trouble with pantry doors." "The information we're receiving comes from our affiliates across the world." "Dad, Uncle Merrill!" "Amman joins Nairobi, Beijing, and Jerusalem as the latest to confirm the appearance of lights." "There are lights in over 274 cities." "They think it'll be 400 within the hour." "They're appearing at or within one mile of crop signs." "They were for navigation." "They made a map." "They're gonna be within a mile of us." "Dad?" "Yes?" "They think these are staged immediately preceding an attack maneuver." "I was wrong." "They're hostile." "It's like "War of the Worlds."" "Ground forces have been assembled in countries throughout the globe." "Hundreds of thousands have flocked to temples, synagogues, and churches." "God be with us all." "I'm going to get back to the windows." "Hey, you guys okay?" "Some guy had a sign saying it was the end of the world." "Don't worry." "You won't let anything happen to us, right?" "No way." "I wish you were my dad." "What did you say?" "Don't you ever say anything like that again." "Ever." "There's too many windows in the bedrooms." "We don't have enough boards." "We'll board up the bedroom doors." "Where are we gonna sleep?" "In the family room." "What about Isabel?" "We'll tie her up in the garage after dinner." "I'll make some sandwiches." "I want spaghetti." "We'll just eat fast, Bo." "Spaghetti sounds great." "What do you want, Morgan?" "Anything?" "French toast... and mashed potatoes." "Now we're talking." "How about you, Merrill?" "Chicken teriyaki." "Good choice." "I'm going to have a cheeseburger with bacon." "Extra bacon." "What's the matter with everyone?" "Eat." "Maybe we should say a prayer." "No." "Why not?" "We're not saying a prayer." "Bo has a bad feeling." "I had a dream." "We aren't saying a prayer." "Eat!" "I hate you." "That's fine." "You let Mom die." "Morgan." "I am not wasting one more minute of my life on prayer." "Not one more minute." "Understood?" "Now we are going to enjoy this meal." "No one can stop us from enjoying this meal, so enjoy it!" "Stop crying!" " Graham..." " Don't yell at her!" "All right, since you're all not gonna eat." "I'm gonna try some of everything." "It's happening." "Graham, hurry." "Did I ever tell you what everyone said when you were born, Bo?" "You came out of your mama, and you didn't even cry." "You just opened your eyes, and you looked around the room at everybody." "Your eyes were so big and gorgeous." "All the ladies in the room just gasped." "I mean, they literally gasped." "And they go, "Oh, she's like an angel."" "And they said, "We've never seen a baby so beautiful."" "And then... you know what happened?" "They put you on the table to clean you up, and you looked up at me and you smiled." "They say babies that young can't smile." "You smiled." "Let's go down now." "We forgot Isabel." "Should we turn off the lights?" "They already know we're here." "Dad..." "Do you know what happened when you were born, Morgan?" "You came out, and your mama kept bleeding, so the doctors rushed you out of the room before I even had time to see you." "They're on the roof." "While they were fixing her up, all she kept asking about was you." "They're in the house." "I wanted your mama to see you first because she had dreamed about you her whole life." "Then she got feeling better, they brought you in, and they placed you in her arms, and she looked at you, and you looked at her, and you just stared at each other for the longest time." "And then she said real soft," ""Hello, Morgan." "I'm your mama." "You look just how I dreamed."" "The attic door." "Let's go." "Come on." "We forgot our foil helmets." "Have we got anything to wedge against the door knob?" "They'll read our minds." "You're scaring your sister." "I'm already scared." "Merrill." "I'm looking!" "They'll know our secret thoughts." "I'm not ready." "Merrill!" "Got it!" "Dad!" "Where's Bo?" "I'm okay." "What's happening out there?" "I can't even imagine." "I hope they're doing better than we are." "We don't even have helmets." "They're only making noises." "They're not trying to get in." "Why would they do that?" "They want our attention on the door?" "They're distracting us." "From what?" "The book says they're probably very good problem solvers." "They'll find a way in." "Morgan, give me your flashlight." "They used to pour coal down in this basement." "There's a coal chute in here." "I can feel air." "Me too!" "It's getting stronger." "I'm close." "What?" "Hold him!" "I got him!" "Hold him!" "I got him!" "Hold him!" "We don't have his medicine." "Don't be afraid, Morgan." "We'll slow this down together." "Feel my chest." "Feel it moving in and out." "Breathe like me." "Breathe like me." "Come on." "I dreamed this." "Stay with me." "I know it hurts." "Be strong, baby." "It'll pass." "It'll pass." "Don't do this to me again." "Not again." "I hate you." "I hate you." "The fear is feeding him." "Don't be afraid of what's happening." "Believe it's going to pass." "Believe it." "Just wait." "Don't be afraid." "The air is coming." "Believe." "We don't have to be afraid." "It's about to pass." "Here it comes." "Don't be afraid." "Here comes the air." "Don't be afraid, Morgan." "Feel my chest." "Breathe with me." "Together." "The air is going in our lungs." "Together." "We're the same." "We're the same." "We should save the flashlights." "Ray's truck swerved off the road and hit Colleen and then a tree, and she was pinned between the two." "What does that mean..." "pinned?" "The truck... the truck has severed most of her lower half." "What did you say?" "She won't be saved." "Her body is pinned in such a way that it's alive when it shouldn't be alive, and the truck is holding her together." "And she doesn't feel much, and she's... she's talking almost like normal, and we didn't pull the truck out 'cause we... we wanted you to come down here and be with her as long as she's awake." "And that won't be very long." "Now, Father, do you understand what I've told you?" "Caroline... is this the last time I'm gonna talk with my wife?" "Yes, it is." "People think they came here to take over the planet." "That's bull." "I don't think that." "My friend and I saw them." "I found a pack of light bulbs." "They poisoned his family." "They dragged them away." "Nobody believes it, but they didn't come here for our planet." "This is a raid." "They came here for us, to harvest us." "We're lucky as hell they're leaving here." "They're leaving?" "That's what they're saying." "How long have we been sleeping?" "12 hours or so." "He said they had poison gas... they secrete in small amounts." "A lot of people died." "But they're leaving." "They left real fast this morning, like something scared them off." "They left some of their wounded behind." "Why are they going?" "People must have figured out a way to beat them." "Everyone has a weakness, right?" "You didn't think we'd make it through the night, did you?" "No." "Listen... there's things I can take and a couple things I can't." "One of them I can't take is when my older brother, who's everything I want to be... starts losing faith in things." "I saw your eyes last night." "I don't want to ever see your eyes like that again." "Okay?" "I'm serious." "Okay." "He's been like that for a while." "He needs his medicine." "Have they said anything about our area?" "Philadelphia and its outlying counties are cleared... but who knows for sure?" "He's not strong enough." "If he has another attack right now..." "I know." "We'd have to be sure before we opened up that door, Graham." "It's good enough for me." "Me too." "Get the syringes' well." "We may need to give him an epinephrine shot." "The atmosphere here is cautiously optimistic." " People are celebrating." " They're doing this on TV." "There's a great sense of relief." " They're dancing." " Yeah, like this." "As we begin evaluating the loss of life," " Do you want to see it?" " We will be left with a lot of questions." " I'll bring the TV in here." " I see the same expression on every face." "We know the battle turned around in the Middle East." "Three small cities there found a primitive method to defeat them." "We have no further details at this time." "Merrill, wait." "Hi, sweetie." "Hi, baby." "I was... just taking a walk before dinner." "You love walks." "It was meant to be." "Does it hurt?" "I don't feel much." "Good." "Tell Morgan... to play games." "It's okay to be silly." "I will." "Tell Bo to listen to her brother." "He'll always take care of her." "I will." "And tell Graham..." "I'm here." "Tell him... see." "Tell him to see." "And tell Merrill to swing away." "See, what you have to ask yourself is, what kind of person are you?" "Are you the kind that sees signs, sees miracles?" "Or do you believe that people just get lucky?" "Is it possible..." "there are no coincidences?" "Swing away, Merrill." "Merrill... swing away." "Ahhhhhhhhh!" "Ahhhh!" "That's why he had asthma." "It can't be luck." "His lungs were closed." "His lungs were closed." "No poison got in." "No poison got in." "His lungs were closed." "His lungs were closed." "Don't touch him." "Give him a minute." "Graham..." "Give him a second." "D-Daddy..." "Don't touch him."

"Those passengers going on...." "Hey." "Hey, kid!" " Are you Zack?" " Yes, Sir." "I'm Byron." "Nice to meet you." " Come on, let's get your bags, okay?" " Yes, Sir." "Take your jacket off, kid." "It's hot as hell here." "This is the PI, it's what we call the Philippine Islands." "Zack, I'm sorry about what happened to your mom." "It must have been pretty rough." "I would have called you a lot sooner, but I was out at sea." "But I've been calling you for four months." "That's what I'm trying to tell you." "I was out at sea for four months." "All right, kid." "These are your mama-sans, Tiki and Maria." "Hello, Byron." "I want you to meet somebody." "This is my son, Zack." "Tiki, say hello." "Zack" " Tiki and Maria." " Hi, Zack." " Hi, Zack." "I'm out at sea three weeks out of every month." "When I'm back in port," "I don't have time for this daddy stuff, 'cause that's not who I am." "That's okay, Sir." "Now wait a second, Kid, you don't understand." "I'm too old for this." "I don't care what the Navy says." "This is no place to bring up a kid." "Like I told you on the telephone, you're better off in that state school back in Virginia." "I'm never going back there, they treat me like shit!" "Well, maybe that's not for you to say!" "God dammit!" "Don't look at me that way!" "What happened to your mother had nothing to do with me." "It did!" "You said you were gonna come back!" "You promised!" "Is that what she said?" "That's a female lie." "That's bullshit!" "That's a lie!" "I found your letters and I read 'em after she did it!" "You said you were gonna come back for us."

"Hey, man, nothing you do is ever going to surprise me." " Tell me." " I joined the Navy." " You joined the Navy?" " That's right, I joined the Navy."

"You gotta give up six fuckin' years of your life to the Navy if you want to fly." "That's six fucking years, with the most uptight assholes God ever put on this Earth." "Officers, Man, they're not like you and me." "They're...they're a different breed." "You know what this sound like?" "...sounds like you're afraid you might have to salute me someday, Chief." "Bullshit!" "Why the fuck would be afraid of something like that?" "I don't know." "You know, it kinda sounds that way." "You want some fatherly bullshit." "You want a pat on the back." "From you?" "No." "Huh!" "." "Thanks for my graduation present, Byron." "See you around." "Zack, don't go away mad." "Hey, Babe." "Zack!" "Come on." "Zack!" "Fall in!" "I said: fall in, you slimy worms!"

"Another war can come up in six years." "And if you're too peaceful a person to not napalm an enemy village, where there are women and children, I'm going to find that out." " Understand?" " Yes, Sir!" " Understand?" " Yes, Sir!" "Hi, Son." "How you doing, Sarge?" " What did you call me?" " Beg your pardon?" "What did you call me, Boy?" " I called you "Sarge"." " Before that!" "I didn't call you anything before that." "You said, "How are 'ewe'?" I am not a "ewe", Boy." "A "ewe" is a female sheep, Boy." " Is that what you think I am, Boy?" " No." " No, Sir!" " No, Sir." " Louder, Sweet Pea!" " No, Sir!" "Hey, you want to fuck me up the ass?" "That why you called me a "ewe", Boy?" " Are you a queer?" " Hell no, Sir!" " Where are you from, Boy?" " Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Sir." "Ah!" "Only two things come out of Oklahoma." "Steers and queers." "Which one are you, Boy?" "I don't see no horns." "So, you must be a queer." "No, Sir." "Stop whispering, Sweat Pea, you're giving me a hard-on." "No, Sir!" "You laughing at me, Dickbrain?" "No, Sir!" "You better stop eyeballing me, Boy, or I'll rip your eyeballs out and skullfuck you to death." "Yes, Sir!" "What's your name, Boy?" "Mayo." "Zack Mayo, Sir!" "How did you slip into this program?" "I didn't know the Navy was so hard up." "You got an injury there, Mayo?" "Not exactly, Sir." "Hey, this is really wonderful work." "Where did you get this, Mayo?" "Subic Base, Philippines, Sir." "Thought I recognized the work." "Be proud of them wings." "They're the only ones you're going to leave here with, Mayo-nnaise!" " What's your name, Boy?" " Emiliano Santos Della Serra, Sir." "You don't say?" "You a college boy, Della Serra?" "Yes, Sir!" "Math major, Sir." "Graduated from Texas tech with honors, Sir!" "I see." "You see this cane, Della Serra?" "See the notches near the handle?" "There's a notch for every college puke like you that I got to D.O.R." "That's Drop On Request from this program." "And the first one I'm going to call out of this class is you, Emiliano." "I expect to lose half of you before I'm finished." "I will use every means necessary, fair and unfair, to trip you up, to expose your weaknesses as a potential aviator and as a human being, understand?" "Yes, Sir!" "The price at the other end is a flight education worth one million dollars!" "But first, you got to get past me!" "Hey, Paula!" "It's five o'clock!" "Where's the goddamn whistle?" "Oh, shit!" "Come on, Paula." "Let's go!" "Turn that thing off!" "Next!" "Oh, shit." "What is that?" "This is my idea of an ass bandit." "Wait till the girls see you, Scrotumhead." "Scrotumhead!" "Think that's funny, don't you, boy?" "Not all the obstacles that can trip you up are on this base." "Let me tell you something about the local girls." "Ever since there's been a base here, there's been what you'd call the Puget Sound Debs." "The poor girls come across the sound on the ferry every weekend with just one thing in mind, and that's to marry themselves a naval aviator." "A Puget Deb will tell you," ""Oh, Baby, don't you worry about no contraceptives." ""I've got that all taken care of."" "Don't believe it, Sweet Pea." "A Puget Deb will do anything and say anything to trap you." "I know this sounds silly to you, especially in this so-called modern age, but you scuzzy college pukes had better watch out, because they're out there, and you, Sweet Peas, are the answer to their dream!" "All right!" "Get up!" "Hurry up!" "On the double now!" "You lard asses, I'm going to fix you!" "C'mon, get up in there!" "Quick!" "On the double, Mayonnaise!" "Come on, Seeger."

" Yeah, I don't think we can." "Hey, Daniels, you're in there." "Who the hell is that guy?" "That's your mom and dad for the next 13 weeks." "All right!" "Fall out!" "Get outside!" "On the double!" "Come on out here!" "Quick!" "Out the door!" "On the double!" "Quick!" "Quick!" "Quick!" "More!" "More!" "More!" "More!" "You get down, give me 50!" "You give me 50." "Count 'em!" "You think there's any truth to what he said about those girls, the Puget Debs?" " Sure it is, Sweet Pea." " Still?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Should have warned you scuzzy female types about the Puget Dudes." "Those the ones say they're wearing a rubber, but there's really a hole bitten in the bottom." "Very funny, Mayo..." "Seeger, Mayo, Worley!" "Got enough God damned energy to run them sewers, get over there and give me 50!" "On the double!" "Right now!" "All right, Poopie Asses, get your faces on down there!" "Pump 'em out!" "You women better not expect special privileges!" "You think flying a plane is just sitting on a chair pushing buttons?" "Looks like you need a little work in your upper-body strength, See-Garr!" "All right, all right, get up." "Get up!" "Step out!" "Get back in line!" "You watch!" "Go on!" "Pilots off the Lexington oughta be getting to the Officers Club now." "You sure got the timetable down, Lynette." "After three years, you learn all the tricks." "Did you see that bodacious set of tatas?" "Hi, Mrs. Rufferwell, I brought the records the social committee asked for." "I hope you didn't come all this way just to see me tonight." "You're pissing me off, Boys!" "38... 39..." "The Blue Angels'll be in next month." "If you need and introduction just let me know." " Bye for now." " Bye, bye." " Bye." "Far fucking out!" "I've been wantin' to meet one of those Blue Angels since I can remember!" " Aw!" "Look at the Poopies." "Those poor guys." " Aw." "See you in a month when you get liberty!" "Don't worry, it grows out about an inch by then!" "Ain't gonna be no liberty for you, Boys." "You'll be going home before then." "Start from one again!" "1... 2... 3..." "Flyin' low and feelin' mean!" "Flyin' low and feelin' mean!" "Spot a family by the stream!" "Spot a family by the stream!" "Pickle a pair and hear 'em scream!" "Pickle a pair and hear 'em scream!" "'cause napalm sticks to kids!" "'cause napalm sticks to kids!" " That's disgusting!" " What are you doing here, Seeger?" "Whatsa matter, Worley, am I threatening you?" "Hey, Baby, they send you to war, you get your ass shot down." "Wouldn't mind being the first woman to fly fighters in combat." " Great!" "Go in my place." " You goin' for Jets?" "Uh-huh!" "All the way." " How about you, Mayo?" " Jets." "I hate to tell you... they only let two out of each class go to jets." "Which one of you's going with me?" " Me!" " Me!" "Talking in the ranks again." "You three just added 2 miles to this little hike...for everybody." "Come on!" "Let's go!" "Family of gooks are sittin' in a ditch!" "Family of gooks are sittin' in a ditch!"

"You don't deserve to look at 'em!" "Della Serra, turn you back!" "You are without a doubt the most pathetic class I've ever been assigned to!" "You big chump." "Four weeks, and you still can't shine a damn buckle." "Louis, shoot me a Kotex, Buddy." "Be careful where you stick that." " Five minutes to inspection, Mayo." " Where's your money?" "Boonies." "You better hope Foley never finds out about that, Mayo." "Hey, Perryman." "Look what I got here, Man." "Look at that." "Look at that." "Look at them buckles, Man." "Look good, huh?" "10 bucks. 15 for the boonies." "Who the hell's got 10 bucks?" "Hey, Man!" "I spend every penny they pay me around here to keep my old lady and my kid in that motel." "Hey, you're breaking my heart, Perryman." "Who you got doing this stuff for you?" "Some enlisted guy, right?" " Hey, tell me something." " Watch the sheets, Man." "Look, Man, is that piss-ass piece of change you're making from that stuff worth all of us getting kicked out of here on an honors violation?" "I don't see anybody else complaining about it, Perryman." "Excuse me." "Ready?" "Go!" "Look out, Worley, coming through." " The hell you say, Son." " Here I come." "Out of my way, Mayo, I'm gonna put my name on that wall." "Underneath mine." "Fuck!" "Give me the rope!" "Give me the rope!" "Shit!" "God damn, Mayonnaise!" "2:25." "Not bad... for a beginner." "Piece of cake." "Let's go now!" "Come on, Snyder!" "Come on, Snyder!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "Kick ass!" "Let's go!" "You guys are bringing up the rear!" "You ain't getting out of here till you get over that wall, See-gar!" " I'll make it, Sir!" " Hurry up!" "Come on." "Get over there!" "You really want to be a man, See-gar?" "You another one of those little girls didn't get enough of daddy's attention 'cause he really wanted a son, See-gar?" "Ah, that's it, that's it!" "That's what'll beat you every time, See-gar... your mental attitude of a person of the female persuasion." "Deep down under all that bullshit, you're still thinking like a second-class citizen, aren't you, See-gar?" "You can never give orders to men!" "Ah!" "Walk around." "Walk around, Sugar Britches." "Bernoulli's equation gives us the total amount of energy contained in the air flow." ""P" is static pressure in pounds per square foot." ""RHO" is air density in slugs per cubic foot, and velocity is in feet per second." "2,000 pounds per square foot..." "Let's see 'em." "What about the buckles?" "Okay." "All right. 20 bucks, right?" "Hey, Bud." "Beat it." "What are you laughing about?" " I thought that's how you did it." " Did what?" "Did what!" "?" "!" "Come on, Santy Claus!" "You're not gonna tell anybody about this, are you?" "Not if you make it worth my while." "Free boonies for the duration." "That's fair." "Tell you what, tell you what I'm gonna do...you get me through aerodynamics, you can write your own ticket, My Friend." "You got a deal." "George Jones, where are you when we need you most?" "Hey, two o'clock!" "Moving in." "Della Serra." "Radar's up." "Scoping the target area." "Oh-oh!" "Zero in!" "Slick it back!" "Who'll be the lucky Deb?" "Is it the blonde?" "Is it the brunette?" "Score!" "He got her." "My God, check Perryman, check Perryman!" "Five years of marriage, still in love." "That's what life's all about." "Hey, See-gar!" "Remember that bodacious set of tatas and her pal?" " Right!" " There they are, Bud." "Think we ought to do something about it." "Captain Graves, it's so nice to meet you." "You know, the boys speak so highly of you, and uh..." "Lynette, he has several people to meet." " I'm so sorry." " Captain Rufferwell." "Mrs. Rufferwell!" "Hello, Captain." "How are you?" "Nice to meet you." "Could you introduce us to these two young ladies, please?" "Paula, Lynette." "Miss Paula Pokrifki," "Miss Lynette Pomeroy, may I present Officer Candidate Sid Worley and Officer Candidate Zachary Mayo." "Well, I hope you have a good time." "You know, we already met." "We did?" "Uh-huh!" "You said it would grow an inch by now." " That was you guys?" " Yeah." "Would you like to dance?" "Sure." "It's grown out more than an inch, Pal." "Would you like to get a drink?" "Sure." "Let's go." "So, what kind of a name is Pokrifki?" "Polish." "What kind of a name is Mayo?" "Italian." "My mom was Irish." "No, thank you." "I think I got her ears." " Yeah." "Yeah." "The rest is all wop." "Where are you from, Mayo the Wop?" "Everywhere, nowhere..." "Paula the Polack." "Seriously." "Seriously." "Seriously..." "My father's a rear admiral, seventh fleet." "You're kidding." "No, no, we lived in ports all over the world..." " Kathmandu..." "Moscow, Nairobi." " Really?" "I've never been out of Washington." "Wait a minute." "You're kidding me, right?" "We don't have any naval bases in Moscow." " No." " No." "I didn't think so." "So... you got a girl, Mayo the Wop?" "No." "I ain't looking for one, either." "What are you looking for?" "I heard about these girls who come here looking for a husband." " Not me." " Yeah?" "Why are you here?" "To meet interesting people, improve myself." "What do you do, go to school?" "No, I got a job." "I work over at National Paper." "It's a real good job." "I'm going to save enough money...travel." "Think I'd like to go to Moscow." "You been through the Dilbert Dunker yet?" "No, but my father and my brother both made it through." "So, I guess I can, too." "Oh!" "Is your brother a flier?" "He was." "He got killed." " Vietnam?" " Yeah." "My brother died over there, too." "He wasn't a flier though." "I was only 12 when it happened." "I really don't remember that much about him." "I sure remember Tommy." "Mind if we talk about something else?" "We don't have to talk about anything at all." "Do you think you'll make it all the way to getting your wings?" "Who knows?" "Guys a lot smarter than me been dropping out like flies." "Oh, you know, you got to say you're going to do it." "Ya gotta program yourself." "It'll happen." "You've just got to see yourself making it." "I know 'cause I read this article in Cosmo, it was about that very thing." "I swear." "Paula... you are a very, very pretty girl." "Do you want to go somewhere else?" "Come on." "Fall out, Worley." "Something tells me you girls have been here before." "Whatever gave you that idea?" "Oh!" "Stop it!" "You're going to ruin it." "I'm sorry." "I'll do it." "You sure this is okay?" "Don't worry." "I'll respect you in the morning." "You're crazy, Girl." "You'll respect me!" "Couldn't wait to get out of there." " Didn't you like the band?" " Not much." "You didn't like Tie a Yellow Ribbon?" "I thought their rendition was one of..." "Let's go down to the beach." "That sounds good." "Squad, halt!" "Fall out!" "Look at Foley." "Do you believe it?" "Showboat." "All right." "Listen up." "I'm the base martial arts instructor." "Those of you in 1-5 must desist thinking of me as the drill instructor for the next 60 minutes." "Just think of me...as the enemy." "Do you believe this guy?" "Now, a volunteer, please!" "Daniels." "How about you?" "I see you hidin' back there, get up here, quick!" "Put him in the hospital, Kid!" "He can't touch me, it's against the law." " Kick his ass." " Come on, Topper!" "Come on up here, Son." "Hang tough, Buddy!" "Hello, Pussy." "How bad d'you want to survive?" "Sir, this officer candidate doesn't understand the drill instructor's question, Sir." "Ah...well, let's see if I can clarify it a little bit." "You want to survive bad enough to stop me, Pussy?" "Or are you relying on my generosity, my love of humanity, to stop me from killing you?" "I... breathe." "Break loose." "Break loose!" "I... can't... breathe." "Get away!" "You're not hurt, I coulda killed you if I wanted to." "Move off." "Get out of here!" "Hurry up!" "Get back to your seat!" "You think I was really harsh on your classmate, don't you?" "Just wait 'til you get shot down behind enemy lines somewhere, and the only thing between you and a POW Camp is what you learn from me." "Now that I got your attention, we shall proceed with the class." "God, I hope she shows." "She's going to show." "She will show." "A rich, socialite Okie like you ought to be a big catch around here." "Hey, I ain't rich." " You're an officer's kid." " So what?" "Man, I spent six years living right on top of the raunchiest whorehouse in the PI." "Oy!" "Oy!" "Paquero!" "You want numbah one fucky-fucky?" "Long time, short time." "$10!" "Cheap-cheap!" "10 bucks?" "10 dollah. 10 dollah!" "Lynette, Honey, how's it hanging?" "Don't drool on her, Boy." " Hey, Ladies." " Hi." "Pansy-ass flyboys." "I remember you." "Mayo the wop." "Yep, that's me." "It's good to see you." "I was looking forward to it." " Me, too." " Really?" "Yeah." "Uh...excuse me." "You guys want to just hang out here, or can I suggest an alternate plan?" "Like pick up a bottle and go to the motel?" "Just like that, yeah." "What do you think?" "I'll vote for a motel." "My kind of group." "Troy, here they come." "Well!" "Make way for the Warmongers." "What did you call us?" "I called you a Warmonger." "Ain't that what you are?" "Yeah, right." "I just want to ask you something." "Yeah, what do you want?" "You come up here for a couple of months, you rich college boys." "You're strutting' around in your ice cream outfits like you own the goddamned place." "What are you lookin' at, Duck Butt?" " Hey, who do you think you are?" " Man, I don't want to fight you." "I do not want to fight." "Why don't you just go back inside and cool down." "I ain't finished talking, Sailor Boy!" "Get him, Troy." "Oh, God." "Back off, Man." "That's enough, Man." "Holy shit!" "Check his nose!" "He broke his nose, Man." " You asshole!" " Faggot!" "Come on, come on!" "God!" "I never seen anything like that in my whole life." "Did you see that guy's nose?" "Lynette, will you just shut up until we get to the motel?" "Can you do me that, please?" "Well, excuse me for livin'." "Asshole!" "I shouldna done it, I shoulda walked away from him." "Zack, he didn't give you a choice." "I had a choice, everybody's got a choice." "Where d'you learn how to fight like that anyways?" "I don't want to talk about it now, all right?" "All right." "You know, Zack, it wouldn't kill you to open up to me a little bit." "What do you want?" "You want to fuck?" "Is that what you want?" "You wanna fuck?" "You know what?" "Come here!" "Get on the bed." "Take your clothes off." "I'll give you a good fuck." "Where's that coming from?" " Get on the bed." " I wouldn't fuck you now if my life depended on..." "Then get the hell outta here, 'cause I don't need this shit!" "I don't know who you think you're talking to." "You know I'm not some whore you brought in here." "I'm tryin' to be nice to you." "I'm trying to be your friend, Zack." "Then be a friend." "Get out of here." "Fine." "Fine." "You know, Man, you ain't nothing special." "You got no manners." "You treat women like whores." "And if you ask me, you got no chance of being no officer." "It's okay." "It's all right." "I'm sorry." " Are you hungry?" " Yeah." "Yeah, I'm starved." " Skivvies?" " Pretty sexy, huh?" " Sporty." " Control yourself, Baby." "Good!" "Look, Paula..." "I try real hard not to fool anybody about who I am, what I want." "I know who you are and what you want." "And what do you want?" "I want to have a good time until you have to leave." " That's it?" " Uh-huh." "Hey!" " Last night was incredible." " I thought so, too." " Zack, am I your fantasy?" " What?" "I'm not getting serious on you." "I dare you not to fall in love with me." "I mean, how can you resist?" "I'm like candy." "You are better than candy." "It's going to be very hard to get enough, very hard." "Very hard!" "You're getting feisty on me, you little Polack." "You cocky Polack!" "So, Zack, what do you do with a girl when you're through with her, huh?" "You say something or just disappear?" "Huh?" "I never had a girl." "And I forgot to thank you for breakfast." "Any time, Sailor." "Heads up, Perryman." "When you hit the water, you might get the wind knocked out of you." "Don't panic." "You've got a second and a half before the cage is completely underwater and it flips upside down." "Go, Joe!" "Now, the most important thing is to watch your bubbles." "When that cage flips upside down, you're gonna be disoriented." "You're not gonna know what your bearings are, like Perryman down there." " The bubbles will determine which way is up." " Holy shit!" "All right, time's up." "Go down for him, Jason." "This is what happens if you panic." "You can die down there, Children, and this is only a swimming' pool." "Out there in the Pacific, you won't have a frogman to save your ass." "Totally unsatisfactory, Perryman." "Gotta get in the back of the line." "Do it again." "You only got two more chances to make it, or you're out." "All right." "Next!" "Hold it." "Change in order." "Mayo... since you're hotshot of the week, you're next." "Aye, aye, Sir." " Seeger, you're behind him." " Yes, Sir." "You ought to be good at this, Mayo." "Something you can do alone." "Take him up, Joe!" "You never know in this program what's gonna trip ya up, huh, Mayo?" "It could be the grades or some little flaw in your character that comes out under stress." "Let's go, Joe!" "All right!" "Way to go!" "Okay, Seeger." "You're next." "All right, Seeger, let's go, let's go!" "C'mon!" "Get a move on!" "Okay, Joe, take her up!" "Don't you cry now, Sugar Britches!" "Go, Joe!" "All right, Seeger!" "All right." "Oh, gosh, that was great!" "Ya think they'd let us do it again?" "Not bad, Seeger." "But you still got to get over that wall." "Next!" "C'mon, c'mon, Daniels, let's move it!" "Take it easy now, it's just a joy ride." "Does this thing hit with the same impact as a plane?" "This in nothin' compared to a plane." "Okay." "Don't forget to watch the bubbles." "All right, Joe, take him up!" "All right, Daniels, let's us have the thumbs-up up there!" "C'mon, Daniels, c'mon, where's the thumbs up at?" "All right." "Go, Joe!" "Take it easy." "Pull it back up!" "Can't get it right now!" "It's gonna take a coupla seconds to hook it back up." "All right, let me through!" "Grab him!" "All right." "Pull him out!" "Hold him!" "Put him on his stomach!" "Take his helmet off!" "Quick!" " God damn!" " Get it off." "Christ!" "All right. get me a corpsman." "Savage!" "Get me a corpsman!" "On the double!" "Yes, Sir!" "Okay, everybody just stand back." "Come on, Topper." " God!" " Come on." "C'mon, Buddy, c'mon." "C'mon, Man." "C'mon, Topper." "C'mon." "Breathe in, breathe in." "Hey!" "All right." "All right!" "All right." "That corpsman on the way?" "Stand back." "Let him get by." "Give him some breathing' room." "Get it back." "Somebody go check on that corpsman." "He's gonna be all right." "Take it easy." "Prepare for inspection!" "Shit." "I am not going to make it." "Help me out, Sid." " Got a spare, Man?" " My spare sucks." "You know where the hardware store is." "Zack, I need a buckle, Man." "I can't risk it." "You got plenty'a time." "Man, he's still out with the girls." "Can't do it." "Hey, Zack, I got to see my family, Man." "I couldn't take it if they didn't let me outta here this weekend." "Wouldn't want you to get an honor violation, Perryman." "Okay." "Okay." "Attention on deck!" "In every class, there's always one joker who thinks he's smarter than me." "In this class, that happens to be you... isn't it, Mayonnaise?" "Perryman, Worley..." "let us have this room." "On the double!" " Couldn't happen to a nicer guy." " Stow it." "Mayo..." "I want your D.O.R." "No, Sir." "You can kick me outta here but I ain't quitting'." "Get into your fatigues, Mayo." "By the end of this weekend, you'll quit." "Casey Jones was a son of a bitch!" "Casey Jones was a son of a bitch!" "Drove his train in a 30-foot ditch!" "Drove his train in a 30-foot ditch!" "Came on out with his dick in his hand." "Came on out with his dick in his hand." "Said, "Listen, ladies, I'm a hell of a man."" "Said, "Listen, ladies, I'm a hell of a man."" "Went to his room and lined up a hundred." "Went to his room and lined up a hundred." "Swore up and down he'd fuck every one." "Swore up and down he'd fuck every one." "Fucked 98 'til his balls turned blue." "Fucked 98 'til his balls turned blue." "Then he backed off, jacked off, and fucked the other two!" "...he backed off, jacked off, and fucked the other two!" "Wave goodbye to your buddies, Mayo." "Oh, I forgot, you don't have any buddies." "Only customers." "You having fun, Mayonnaise?" "Yes, Sir!" " Don't hear you!" " Yes, Sir!" "All right!" "98... 99..." "Now, get your face all the way down in there!" "100." " You ready to quit now, Mayo?" " No, Sir!" "Look over there, Mayo." "Look over there." "Look at her." "She decided to stay instead of taking liberty on this weekend." "She may not make it through the program, but she's got more heart and more character than you'll ever have!" "And stop eyeballing me, boy!" "Life sure has dealt you some shitty cards, hasn't it, Mayo?" "I'm doing all right, Sir!" "6..." "Bullshit." "I done some checking." "I looked through your files." "I know about your mama." "Don't you eyeball me." "I know your father's a alcoholic and a ho chaser." "That's why you don't mesh, Mayo." "Because deep down..." "And don't you eyeball me, Boy!" "Deep down inside... you know all these other boys and girls are better than you!" "Isn't that right, Mayo?" "Huh?" "Isn't that right?" "No, Sir!" "No, Sir!" "What's the matter, Mayo, you gettin' tired?" "I'm not tired!" "Move it, boy!" "This is where the fun starts!" "Move it!" "You got all day tomorrow to look forward to!" "Get on!" "6 inches off the ground." "Give me 6 to 90." "Hey, Mayo, why don't we quit this little charade of yours over a couple of beers over at TJ's?" "C'mon, Man, you're about as close to being officer material as me." "Sir, this candidate believes he would make a good officer!" "No way, Mayo." "No way, you only give a shit about yourself." "And everyone of your classmates knows it." "Do you think they'd trust you behind the controls of a plane that they'd have to fly in?" "C'mon, Man!" "I take you as a kinda guy that'd zip-off one day in my F-14 and sell it to the Cubans, right?" "No, Sir!" "No, Sir!" "I love my country." "Sell it to the Air Force, Mayo." "Sell it to the Air Force." "Talk to me!" "Now, why would a slick hustler like you wanna sign up for this kind of abuse, anyway?" "I want to fly jets, Sir." "My grandmama wants to fly jets." "I wanted it since I was a kid!" "We're not talking about flying here, we're talking about character." "I've changed." "I've changed since I've been here." " The hell you have." " I've changed, Sir!" "Nah!" "You've just polished-up your act a little bit." "You've just shined it up!" "Now, tell me what I want to hear." "I want your D.O.R." "No, Sir!" " Subtitle Maximum Length Per Line = 53 -2345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123" " I want your D.O.R!" " I ain't going to quit." " Spell it!" "D-O-R." " I ain't gonna quit!" "Yeah, then you can be free and you and your daddy can get drunk and go whore-chasing together, huh?" " No, Sir!" " D.O.R.!" " I ain't going to quit!" "All right then, You can forget it." "You're out!" "Don't you do it!" "Don't... you..." "I got nowhere else to go!" "I got nowhere else to g..." "I ain't got nothing else." "I got nothing else." "All right, Mayo." "On your feet." "Come on, Mayo, let's get back to the barracks." "Hey, Foley!" "Zack, don't give up!" "You got that queer on the run!" "Kiss this, Foley!" "Hang in there, Zack!" "Remember the Tides Inn." "Those friends of yours there?" " Don't give up the ship, Mayo!" " Yes, Sir." "We're with you, Zack!" "Don't quit, Zack, you can make it!" "All right, Mayo, you got some urinals to clean." "Move out." "Hey, Foley's a queer!" "He got his balls shot off in the war!" "So you're still here, huh, Mayo?" " Sid." " Yeah?" "Thanks." "Sid." "Take a look at that." "That son of a bitch." "Want me to get a towel?" "I can get you one." "I don't want you to move." "Somebody's got to move sometime...eventually." ""They found them there weeks later," ""shriveled from lack of food and water."" "Bye, Zachary." "I laughed all week, thinking about you guys on that boat." "We were so drunk." "Pretty sharp, Paula." "Pretty sharp." "I'd love to be one of those girls they're lettin' in the flight program." "I think it'd be a gas to fly." "So, what's stopping you?" "You know all those magazines what they say, it's just..." "I don't know." "It's not so easy for a girl." "That's still no excuse for you not goin' out'n getting' what you want." "Just go get it." "And who says I'm not going after what I want?" "Not me." "My mama's 39 years old." "She still works over at that factory." "And every time I look at her I know exactly what I don't want." "My old lady... took a bottle of pills one day when I was at school." "Oh, God." "The thing that got me about it..." "She didn't leave a note, she didn't..." "Nothin'...she just checked out." "I always hated her for that." "Oh, God." "That must really hurt." "Hurt?" "No." "No." "You're all alone in the world." "Once you got that down, nothing hurts anymore." "I bet most people would buy that line when you feed it to 'em, huh?" "Hey, are you really serious about having him over?" "I don't know, I haven't made up my mind yet." "Paula... just how far would you go to get Zack?" " What do you mean?" " You know what I mean." "Would you let yourself get pregnant?" "No way, Lynette." "C'mon, would you?" "Well..." "I never used to think I'd do something like that." "But I just don't know anymore." "If you ask me, nine weeks just ain't long enough to get a guy to fall in love with ya." "Yeah, but that doesn't justify trying' to trap him... or getting pregnant." "I mean I can't even believe you'd had that thought." "It's real backward." "Well, it ain't any more backward if you ask me than the way these hotshot assholes just use us 'til they've had enough, and then ditch us like we's trash." "Don't you ever feel used, Paula?" "Don't you ever feel like this is all I get for all my trouble and this son of bitch ought to be payin' for it?" "No." "I never feel like that." "Well, I do." "Thanks again for the flowers, Zack." "Oh, it was my pleasure, Ma'am" "Those are the most beautiful things I've ever saw." "Wipe that stuff off your mouth." "Zack?" "This is great." "Sir?" "How many more weeks 'til graduation?" "Oh, I have three more." "Three more weeks." "And those are the roughest ones of all, aren't they?" "Yeah, that's what they tell me." "Sir, excuse me, why do you keep staring at my food?" "Or are you staring at me?" "I'm not staring at you." "He doesn't mean anything by it, Zack." "Do you, Joe?" "No, I don't mean anything by it." " Like some more chicken, Zack?" " No." "No, thanks." "In fact, I've had it." "I can't eat another bite, this is great." "I'm stuffed, too." "This is the best meal I've had in a long, long time, Ma'am, thank you." "Why don't we go, Zack." "Thank you, Mama." " Thank you, Zack." " Thanks again, Ma'am." "Go on and eat." "Mama, Mama!" "I'm sorry." "I'm so embarrassed, Zack." "I know I shouldn't'a brought ya here." "That's Okay." "A great free meal." "A nice, relaxing dinner." "Those people are so uptight, I felt so sorry for ya." "Don't feel sorry for me, I'm used to it." "It's hereditary." "So, anyway, after this, you go to basic flight which is in Pensacola, right?" "Yeah, Pensacola." "And, uh...then we go to Beeville, Texas, when I get jets." "So, after that..." "don't you think about..." "I mean, come on..." "What's after that?" "Family, kids..." "Don't you think about all that?" "No." " Is that what you think about?" " Sometimes." "If I could do a better job than them, I'd love it." "And what would you do different?" "Everything." "First, I'd marry a man I really loved." "So why did your mom marry this guy if she didn't love him?" "'cause my real father wouldn't marry her." " Your real father?" " My real father." "I want to show you my real father." "Pop." "So, your real father was an Officers Candidate, like me?" " Yeah, about 22 years ago." " Jesus." "No wonder this guy was looking at me funny." "He always looks funny." "Well, it's about time I got back to the wars." "Yeah, I know, I know, I know." "You thank your mom for dinner again, okay?" " Yeah, great chicken, huh?" " Yeah, I loved the chicken." "If you get a chance this week, why don't ya give me a call?" "Yeah, I'll try." "I have survival training this week, so I can't make any promises." "No promises." "Zack you know, I didn't have to show you that picture if I didn't want to." " I just wanted to tell you that." " Yeah, I know." "Bye, Baby." " Be careful on that." " Yeah." "You and Paula still seeing those flight candidates over to the base?" "Why?" "Any reason to think we wouldn't be?" "I don't know, 3:40 in the afternoon and not a word outta you 'bout where ya goin', whatchya doin' over the weekend." "Hi." "I..." "I..." "I'd like to speak with Zack Mayo." "He's an AOC candidate." "Could you look for him?" "Tell him it's Paula." "Liberty time, Boys and Girls." "Fall out!" "Aye, aye, Sir!" " Where you going?" "Where's my bread?" " Forget that thing." "Come on, Perryman." "Come on." " Seeger, don't forget TJ's." " I won't." "Hey, Mayo!" "You got a phone call." "Somebody named Paula." "Tell her I already split." "C'mon, c'mon, let's go!" "I see." "Okay." "Comes a time, right after they get their survival training, when they start thinking they can make it without you." "Suddenly, they stop calling." "Suddenly, they own the goddamn world." "They said that he already left." "I don't think he did." "He hasn't called by now, Paula, he ain't gonna call." "Bunny, just shut up!" "You don't know so much." "Clock me out, Lynette." "Paula, what are you doing?" "May they all crash and burn." " Paula, wait!" "Where are you going?" " Let me go, Mama." "You're are going to the base to look for Zack." "Don't do it, Paula!" "I have to, I love him." "I can't just let him run off." "Well, how you gonna you stop him if he don't wanna be stopped?" "I don't know, but I'm gonna think of a way." " No!" " No?" "Honey, please!" "I can't let you do this." "I just can't." "Don't go, Baby." "Please, don't go." "What are you crying about?" " Huh?" " 'cause I know what you're feeling!" " Oh, what am I feeling?" " Don't do it, Paula." "Let him go!" "Don't trick him or try trap him." " I wouldn't do anything like that." " Yes, you would." " No!" "I would never try to trap him." "If you go there tonight and you find him, you'll say anything, Baby." "You will." "And God help you after that." "Mama, you're right." "Daddy!" "Zack's only 2/10 of a second off the all-time obstacle course records." "He's gonna break it before he leaves." "You boys are lucky you weren't in the program when I was." "You couldn't quit the way you can now." "When I went through it..." "my oldest boy went through it, you bilged out, you were put into the fleet as a swabby." "That's real interesting, Sir." "Sid, how come you haven't written Susan in over three weeks?" "Oh, we haven't...we haven't had time to write anybody." "I've haven't even written Y'all but once." "It's incredible." " Right?" " Oh, yeah." " Who is this Susan, anyway?" " My girl back home." "I'm marrying her as soon I get out of here." "She was Tommy's girl." "They were supposed to get married before he got killed." "I don't know why I never told ya about her, I guess I didn't want you to think I was a shit for fucking Lynette." "Man, I ain't your parents, ya know?" "Do you love this girl?" "Ah, Man!" "The greatest chick you ever wanna know." "She loves kids." "Works with handicapped kids down at the church every afternoon." "Man, that ain't what I'm talking about." "I asked you if you loved her." "Everybody loves her." "Listen, I'm not gonna make that little reunion tonight." "Why not?" "I'm meeting Lynette at the Tides." "Best head in 52 states, Man." "What can I do?" "No, no, no." "You should've done what I did, Man..." "just break it off clean, have it done with, over." "It's the best." "She was pretty torn up you didn't call her." "But, I'm not supposed to tell you that." "Women." "Women, women, women." "They say, "Yeah, good time." "A lot of laughs, no problem."" "Doesn't work that way, does it?" "Look out, TJ's!" "Here I come." " See you later, Man." " 'kay." "I don't know, I don't know what you're smiling about, Perryman." "You're lucky you got here." " What are you talking about?" " I still taste that bug." "A toast." "We made it." "To survival." " To survival." " To survival." "In spite of Perryman." "In spite of Foley." "Hey!" "Is that your Deb over there, Baby?" "I think she's pulling rank on you, Man..." "that's a flight instructor she's with." "Back in a minute." "What are you doing here?" "Well, I thought it was time for me to see Legendary TJ's once before I left here." "You come here a lot?" "I come here once in a while." "I'm sorry I didn't call ya this weekend." "This week has been unbelievable." "It's okay." "How did the survival training go?" " I survived." " You survived." "Obviously." "How was your week?" "It was good." "I'm gonna get a raise beginning of next month, yeah." "That's great." "You guys are graduating in a couple weeks?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I'm starting to believe I'm actually gonna make it." "You'll make it." "Remember, I told you, you saw it, and it happened." "Yeah, you told me." "I got to go, 'cause I have a date." "And..so...uh..." "Look, there's something I wanted..." "What?" "I..." "I wanted to thank you." "I don't think I wouldn't have made it through this crazy thing, if I didn't have something to look forward to." "Don't thank me for nothin', I had a good time." "And good luck in Pensacola with your flight training, and..." "Get jets, huh?" "I'll see you, Zack." "Give me another one." "In fact, leave the bottle, give me the bottle." "Come 'ere, Baby Doll." "Come here." "Come over here, come over here." "Sit down here for a second." "I gotta tell you somethin'." "Just had to have one more taste." "This stuff come in anything besides strawberry?" "How 'bout if I bring some coconut next time." "Okay." " Sid..." "I really gotta go." " Okay." "Shouldn't you 'a got your period by now?" "I'm a little late, that's all." "How late are you?" "Why?" "What's the difference?" "If anything was to happen, which I'm sure it's not, it'd be my responsibility." "Now, just exactly how late are you, Honey?" "What do you care?" "Suppose I was to get pregnant?" "You just suppose it." "I'd never try to make you do somethin' ya didn't want to do." "Oh, I know." "But, ah...that's not the only issue here." "There's a lot more to it than that." "What other issue is there, Sid?" "My responsibility as its father, for one thing." "If I've got you pregnant, then I wanna do the right thing by you." "I'll pay for the abortion, I'll be with you through the whole thing, comfort you, just like I..." "I'd be going through it, too." "We'd both be goin' through it, together." "So how late are ya?" "Let's just wait and see what happens, okay?" "See you later." "I'll call you." "Fuck!" "C'mon!" "Last chance for the record!" "Go!" " Go!" " Go for the record, Mayo!" "This is it, Mayonnaise." "Go!" "Come on!" "Go for it, Mayo!" "Go get it!" "You got it!" "Let's go, Mayo!" "Push it!" "You can, Mayo!" "Put your name on that wall, Mayo!" "Put your name on that wall!" "C'mon Mike, let's catch that animal!" "Okay, let's do this together, Seeger." " Come on, Seeger." " Forget it, just go for the record." "Come on!" "You got it!" "Come on, man!" "Hey!" "Where you going?" " Seeger, get up." " Forget it." "You want jets?" "Then get up!" "You're going over that wall!" "Right here!" "You're gonna start right here." "Three steps." "Right, left, right." "Hand over hand!" "Walk the wall!" "Go stand on your mark!" " Come on, Seeger." " Ready?" "Let's go!" "Left, right, pull!" "Walk that wall, Seeger!" "Walk it!" "Walk the wall!" "Hand over hand!" "Walk it!" "Walk it!" "Walk the wall!" "Seeger!" "Seeger, walk!" "Seeger!" "Don't you let go!" "You walk that wall!" "Pull!" "Pull!" "Pull, Candidate Seeger!" "Pull!" "Pull!" "One leg!" "You got it!" "Pull!" "Pull over!" "Pull yourself over!" "All right!" "Where's Sid?" "What makes you think she's not lyin' about the whole thing?" "She went to a doctor." "She had the test." "She's pregnant." "Okay, so get an abortion." "I'd love to, believe me." "She won't even talk about it." "She's Catholic." "Sid, you're not marrying this girl." "She says it's up to me, but if I don't, she'll go off and have the baby on her own somewhere." "So what!" "Women do it all the time." "What?" "I can't let her go off and have a kid by herself." "It's my kid, too." "You sure?" "It's mine." "I'm sorry, all right?" "Just listen to this!" "What if Foley was right?" "She got herself knocked up just to trap you." "Is it still your responsibility?" "That's not the point." "No matter how it happened, there's still be a child in this world and it'd be mine." "I wouldn't know where it was or its name or nothing." "Jesus Christ, Man!" "Is everything your responsibility?" "Sit." "Adjust." "Pray." "Attack." "It's like the same your brother getting killed." "It's the same damn thing as your brother..." "him getting killed instead of you." "Is that the real reason why you promised to marry this Susan?" "Isn't 't the reason you do everything, Man?" "Out of some bullshit code of ethics you picked up from your family?" "It may be bullshit to you, Buddy, but I wasn't raised that way!" "We got a responsibility to the people in our lives." "It's the only thing that separates us from the god damned animals!" "I'm just not like you, Mayo." "I can't shit all over people and just sleep like a baby at night." "Well, I say you got responsibility to yourself first, and if you can't handle that, you got lot bigger problems than making some girl pregnant!" "Gentlemen, relax." "Without an oxygen mask at 30,000 feet, your insides will feel like this rubber glove." "Your coordination will deteriorate." "Even the most childlike exercises will seem impossible." "Look for the warning signs..." "Giddiness, shortness of breath, claustrophobia." "They can hit you at any moment." "At the instant you feel yourself losing control, go back on oxygen." "That's the whole purpose of this drill." "Now, does everyone understand the exercises?" "Aye!" "Aye!" "Okay, everybody!" "Set?" "Okay!" "Let's see a thumbs up, please." "Very good." "Everybody remove your mask, please." "All right." "You can begin the exercises..." "Now!" "Queen of diamonds." "Nine of diamonds." "If you have any problems, just go ahead and put your mask on." "Or if you have any trouble doing that, raise your hand and the corpsman will assist you." "Five of clubs." "How you doing over there, Mayo and Seeger?" "Having a little trouble?" "Concentrate." "Try to make your palms meet." "Ace of spades." "How you doing down there, Worley?" "Worley, are you all right?" "Worley, can you hear me?" "Ace of spades." "Worley, put your mask back on, please." "Put your mask back on!" " Sid, you okay?" " Sid, you all right?" " Sid!" "Sid!" "I got to get outta here." "Worley, sit down." "Corpsman, we got a problem over here." "Corpsman!" "I got to get out of here!" "Zack!" "Get him some oxygen!" "Okay!" "Corpsman, we got an emergency." "Get that mask on!" "It's all right!" "Breathe!" "Get out of here!" "It's all right." "Breathe!" "Breathe!" "Mayo, they're watching!" "One minute." "We're going to stabilize the pressure." "It's okay." "It's all right." "Everything's okay." "Everybody's watching you." "Hold on." "We'll stabilize the pressure now." "Man the doors." "One minute." "Stay where you are." "Leave your masks on!" "He's fine." "He's got it!" "He's okay." "No problem." "He's okay." "Colors!" "Secure the halyard!" "Charlie, take care of that, will ya, Man." "Okay, Mayo." "What's going on?" "You didn't kick him out?" "Hey, wait a minute." "Did he tell you what he's been goin' through?" "It doesn't matter what he's been goin' through." "It's the whole purpose of this zoo." "What does matter is that he freaked-out for SOME reason at 25,000 feet." "And that can't happen EVER." "You don't understand, Sir, he's got a girl in town, she's pregnant." "She's putting him through hell." "That don't matter." "That don't matter." "Don't matter?" "Whatdya mean?" "You've got two weeks left!" "You're out just like that?" "It can still can happen to you, too, Mayonnaise." "He ain't bullshitting you, Buddy." "I'm talking to you, Motherfucker!" "Don't fuck-it-up for you, Man!" "What did you call me?" "I thought the DI's were supposed to help everybody out around here." "What kind of a human being are you?" "You better lock it up, Boy, or you gonna be going home with him." "Zack, go back to the barracks." "Please?" "I don't get this." "He's the best candidate in the class!" "The best student, the best leader..." "the best friend to everybody." "Can't you bend your god damn rules for once?" "Zack, he didn't ask me to D.O.R. I went to him." "What are you talking about?" "I'm glad it's over, Buddy." "I wasn't here for me, he was right, I was here for everybody BUT me." "I was here for my big brother." "Hey, Buddy." "Sid, wait a minute." "Sid!" "Request permission to carry on..." "Sir!" "Get the fuck out of here!" "Yes, Sir." "Keep the change." "Thanks, Pal." "Lynette!" " Hi, Baby." " Hi, Sid." "Come here a minute." "What are you doing out of uniform?" "Don't worry about that, just..." "just come out here for a minute." "I got somethin' for ya." "Well, wait just a second, all right?" "I look a mess." "All right, then." "If you don't want it..." "All right." "What?" " Well, if you don't want it." " What?" "Oh, my God!" "Oh, my God." "Oh...oh, it's beautiful!" "It cost me my whole savings, but I said what the fuck!" "Oh, God!" "Oh, Sid!" "Oh!" "So... does this mean..." "Yes, Ma'am!" "That's what it means!" "Oh, Sid!" "Oh!" " Let's get a justice of the peace and do it right now!" " Okay, well, I have to tell Paula!" "Oh, shit, I wonder where we'll get stationed first?" "Oh, I hope we go to Hawaii!" "You know, I've always wanted to go to Hawaii!" "Honey, we're not gonna get stationed anywhere." "I D.O.R.'d." " You what?" " I D.O.R.'d." "Hell, I was never cut out to be a pilot." "I was faking it." "I've been faking everything in my life up to now." "But..." "What'll we do?" "Where would we go?" "Oklahoma." "I'll get my old job back at JC Penney's." "Hell, in two years, I'll be floor manager." "You're going to love Oklahoma." "And you and mama will get along great." "Money might be tight at first, so we might have to live there at home." "It's going to work out." "Sid..." "There's no baby." "What?" "I'm not pregnant." "I got my period this morning." "There's no baby, Sid." "I'll be god damned." "What do ya say we get married anyway?" "I love you!" "I don't think I really knew that till just now, just this second." "I have never been happier in my life than I have in the last seven weeks." "I've never felt so relaxed, and I've never felt so loved for who I really am." "Lynette, marry me." "Make me the happiest man in the whole world." "I'm sorry, Sid." "But I don't want to marry you." "I really like you, and... and we've had ourselves some really great times, but I thought you understood." "I want to marry a pilot." "I want to live my life overseas..." "the wife of an aviator!" "Damn you!" "God damn you!" "Nobody D.O.R.s after 11 weeks!" "Nobody!" "Hi, Ma'am." "Have you seen Paula around?" "Paula!" "Paula!" "I'm looking for Sid." "He D.O.R.'d and split." "Nobody's seen him since." "I don't know where to look." " Same room?" " Yes, Sir." "Number three." "Yep." "That's the one." " Tell me something, what do ya think of this?" " Looks nice." "Watch this." "I think you'll like it." "Damn it!" "Shit." "Lynette." " Has Sid been here?" " Already come and gone." "And what happened?" "Can you believe it?" "He D.O.R.'d in the 12th week." "How can you win?" "Lynette..." "What did you tell him about the baby?" "That there isn't one... as of today." "I got my period this morning." "I couldn't believe it." "He still wanted to marry me." " And what did you say?" " I said no, of course." "I don't want no Okie from Muskogee." "I can get that right here." "You little bitch." "Who the hell do you think you are, playing with people like that?" "He loves you!" "And you just sit on him!" "You made up everything, didn't you?" "There wasn't any baby." "Of course there was a baby!" "God!" "I'd never lie about something like that!" "Would I, Paula?" "You little cunt." "God help you." "You're no different than I am, Paula." " Oh yes I am." " Oh no you're not!" " Let me see if he's here, okay?" " All right." "Hey, Mack, seen Sid Worley around here?" "Yeah, he's here." "Sid." "Sid." "Guy said he just got here." "Sid." "Sid?" "Hey, man." "Sid, you okay?" "Sid." "Shit!" "Oh, God." "Call an ambulance." "Oh, Sid." "Oh, God." "Call an ambulance." "You dumb, fucking Okie." "I was your friend." "Why didn't you come and talk to me about it, huh?" "You didn't even try." "You didn't even say goodbye to me." "I just spoke to the Chaplain over to the base and he said he'd call Sid's parents." "Why can't I learn?" "Just like her all over again." "Just like her." "Zack, don't do this to yourself." "You didn't kill your mother." "You didn't kill Sid." "They killed themselves." "There's nothing you could have done about it." "Look, I gotta get outta here." "Do you want some money or something to get a cab?" " Something." "I..." " I don't deserve that." "Okay." "All right." "You know, you're not the only one that's feeling awful." "Maybe I had something to do with what happened." "I knew what Lynette was doing." "I coulda said something and I didn't." "Look, you got no problems!" "All right?" "No problems!" "Another classily be comin' through soon." "And you and Lynette..." "right back into business!" "That's not fair." "I never lied to you." "I never did what Lynette's doing." " I'm not Lynette." " No." "I love you." "I've loved you since I met you." "Don't you understand?" "No!" "I don't want you to love me!" "I don't want anyone to love me." "I just want out!" "I don't know, but it's been said!" "I don't know, but it's been said!" "Air Force wings are made of lead!" "Air Force wings are made of lead!"

"My name is Oliver Queen." "After five years on a hellish island," "I have come home with only one goal-- to save my city." "But to do so, I can't be the killer I once was." "To honor my friend's memory, I must be someone else." "I must be something else." "Previously on "Arrow"..." "The defendant is found not guilty." "Hello, Moira." "What do you want, Malcolm?" "Thea is my daughter." "What do these guys want with a seven year old sub?" "What's on it, it'll save the human race." "Will it save him?" "Sir, there's been a development." "Brother Cyrus..." "How do you feel?" "Stronger." "[Thunder]" "[Boom]" "What was that?"

"Thank you." "You look fabulous." "Really, better than ever." "Did you do something to your hair?" "Yes, I shampooed it without eight women and a guard watching me." "Is it ok to laugh?" "Because I was ordered not to say anything about you being in prison, just to avoid any awkward... exchanges." "Like that one." "[Groans]" "Right." "We need to drill down on these numbers before the earnings call." "Oliver." "I didn't realize your mother was stopping by for a visit today." "Well, it's not a visit." "This is her company, too." "Of course." "How are you, Moira?" "Back, Isabel." "Mr. Queen, may I speak to you for a minute?" "What sort of message does it send to the investment committee, to the city, if we hand Queen Consolidated right back to your mother?" "She was acquitted." "By a jury." "Not by the city." "Oliver." "Stop thinking like a son and start thinking like a CEO." "Oliver." "There's been a break-in." "Damn!" "This door was made of expanded reinforced titanium." "What did they use to do this?" "Not sure yet." "No sign of any explosives." "Maybe a crane, maybe a forklift." "I'm guessing there was at least three of them, maybe four." "And given how quick they got in and out of here..." "They were fast." "Whoa, hey, stop, wait!" "You don't even have a fare!" "Quentin:" "Any idea what these guys were so hot to break in here for?" "You didn't happen to leave a spare earthquake machine lying around, did you?" "Sorry." "This is what we're able to pull off the security cameras." "He was the only guy we got on video." "The rest of the crew must have come in after him." "Actually, it was only one guy." "Ah, sorry I'm late." "But actually, my train was late." "Well, the second one." "The first one I did miss, but that was my cab driver's fault." "I've got this great traffic app, and..." "But he thought that he was right." "I'm here now, though." "So." "Great." "Who the hell are you?" "And do your parents know that you're here?" "I'm Barry Allen." "I'm from the Central City police department." "I'm with the crime scene investigation unit." "We're working on a case with some similar unexplained elements in Central City, so when the report of your robbery came over the wire, my captain sent me up here." "And you think one guy ripped through this door like it was tin foil?" "One very strong guy, yeah." "Uh, it takes about 1,250 foot pounds of torque to break someone's neck." "You see the marks on the guard's neck?" "The bruising pattern suggests the killer used only one hand." "I'm guessing you don't know how hard it is to break someone's neck." "Hmm?" "No." "No idea." "Uh, we're going to need a list of the entire inventory here to figure out exactly what was stolen." "Actually, I think I know what was stolen." "A centrifuge." "An industrial centrifuge." "Probably the Cord Enterprises 2BX 900." "Maybe the six series." "Both have a three column base." "Here, you can see the three sets of broken bolts where the thief just..." "ripped it out of the ground." "And what exactly is a centrifuge?" "It separates liquids." "The centripetal acceleration causes denser substances to separate out along the radial direction." "And lighter objects move to the top." "What did you say your name was again?" "Barry." "Allen." "Felicity." "Smoak." "Um, you can see the cracks heading towards the door." "Footsteps." "One guy." "Anyway, it's just a theory." "One backed by a lot of evidence." "There has to be another explanation." "Yeah." "I'm sure you're right." "You might want to fill our mutual friend in on this." "Yeah." "Don't worry." "I'm sure he's already on it." "[Slade groaning]" "We need to change directions 10 degrees north." "We need to rest." "If Ivo and any of his men survived that blast, they'll be tracking us." "We keep moving." "[Groaning]" "Five minutes." "You watch him, please." "Of course." "Do you believe them?" "That this Hosen will lead us to a wrecked Japanese sub?" "Ivo seems to think so." "I just hope whatever miracle serum they're after is actually onboard." "For his sake." "How do you know that girl?" "Sara was on my father's boat... with me." "[Scoffs]" "What about the girl in the picture?" "Laurel?" "The girl you told me you were in love with." "Sara is her sister." "[Slade groaning]" "I feel like taking a walk." "Anyone care to join me?" "I guess a lot's happened in the last year." "[Footsteps]" "Diggle:" "Oliver." "Got the final inventory from applied sciences." "That CSI from Central City was right." "The only thing missing is a centrifuge." "You have to see this." "I pulled up CC traffic camera footage from across the street of applied sciences." "This is three minutes after the alarm went off." "[Thunder]" "Can we help you with something, Detective?" "Oh, CSIs aren't actually detectives." "We don't even carry guns." "Just some plastic baggies." "[Chuckles]" "[Chuckles]" "Uh, where should I set up my equipment?" "I'll show you." "What's going on?" "Your assistant said that you preferred to keep the investigation in house, so I cleared it with my captain to give you a hand." "What are you doing?" "We need to find this intruder." "And he seems to know more about it than any of us." "Forensic science isn't exactly my forte, so..." "I'd say we need him." "Wouldn't you?" "Mm-hmm." "I'll show you around." "Why am I getting the feeling you know more about this than Felicity's new friend?" "Pray I'm wrong." "Hi." "I'm sorry about what happened at the office this morning." "There are a lot of people who think I got away with murder, Oliver." "Maybe I did." "Mom, the trial, the Undertaking," "Malcolm Merlyn, all of that is behind us now." "And we need everyone to see that." "How are we going to do that?" "We throw a party." "Thea." "Roy." "Did I hear you guys say something about a party?" "A welcome back to Queen Consolidated party for mom." "I don't think so." "If things are going to get back to normal, then we need to start acting normal." "Normal for us is a lavish party." "Oh." "I'm sorry, Mrs. Queen, I can't stay for brunch." "I guess we got to go." "Bye." "I'll take care of everything." "What exactly are you looking for?" "Your thief's shoes touched the ground, which means he tracked in dozens of clues as to where he's been the past few days." "Got ya." "Shouldn't take long." "[Computer beeps]" "So you've seen him, right?" "The Vigilante?" "I read that he saved you." "What was he like?" "Green." "Green." "That's interesting, right?" "I mean, why green?" "Black would be better for stealth, and urban camouflage." "Me, personally," "I think that he trained in some sort of like forest or jungle environment, and the green is a nod to that." "I don't give the vigilante much thought." "Police reports show that he uses carbon arrows, but if he switched to an aluminum carbon composite, he would have far better penetration." "Maybe he thinks he penetrates just fine." "Do you want to know something else?" "I think that he has partners." "Definitely someone with a background in computer sciences." "Yeah." "Why are you so interested in the Vigilante?" "[Exhales]" "When I was 11, my mom was murdered." "I'm so sorry." "They never caught the guy who did it." "Maybe he would have." "[Computer beeps]" "The soil...there's a crystalline structure in it." "That's weird." "What's weird?" "It's sugar." "Sin, you said this was an emergency." "No offense, but Thea, you shouldn't be here." "In the alleyway of the club I own?" "It's my friend Max." "He's missing." "I haven't seen him for a week, no one has." "Something happened to him." "I figured you knew someone who could help." "Roy can help you." "I thought you wanted me to stay out of trouble." "I kind of like that you never turn away from someone who needs help." "I'll just get someone to cover the club." "What do you mean?" "Oh, I'm coming with you." "I hear you're throwing a party." "[Gasping] I didn't get my invite." "Where exactly should I have addressed it?" "Starling City cemetery?" "I know that's where you wish I was right now." "Lying beside my son." "Am I supposed to feel sorry for you, Malcolm?" "You killed Tommy." "You killed your son." "You cannot have my daughter." "Our daughter." "I think we both needed someone that night." "I felt so bad about betraying Rebecca's memory that I left Starling." "Left Tommy behind." "That's when I made my way to Nanda Parbat, where I found my new purpose." "In a way, Moira, you made me the man I am today." "Thea is innocent." "She loved Robert." "Please don't take that away from her," "I'm begging you." "Thea is all I have left." "Tell her the truth, and tell her soon." "You found something?" "We found something." "There were trace amounts of sucrose and a spec of dirt the killer dragged in here on his boot." "Which got me thinking." "There is a sugar refinery two miles from here." "The land around it is suffused in waste sugar." "So I checked." "They had a delivery truck stolen a few days ago." "Their truck matches the make and model of the truck the thief used to steal the centrifuge." "Can you track the vehicle?" "We've been trying." "[Computer beeps] What was that?" "You're not going to believe this." "The truck, it was just used to rob a blood bank." "Are you sure?" "Yeah." "Our guy just made off with 30,000 ccs of O-negative." "Diggle:" "What, he has super strength, likes blood?" "Please don't tell me we suddenly believe in vampires." "We should give this information to the local police." "I'll...take care of that." "Did you say that you were working a similar case in Central City?" "Oh, yeah, um..." "Yeah, you know, it's similar." "Has similar elements." "A lot of similarities." "Right." "Yeah." "I want you to look into this Allen kid." "There's more to him than he's letting on." "His intentions seem pretty clear to me." "Just do it, please." "Oliver, when are you going to tell me what exactly we're up against?" "[Tires squealing]" "[Both grunting]" "Yeooww!" "Sorry." "Ahh." "Thank you." "[Exhales] You were right to ask if I knew more than I was letting on." "I've seen men with abilities like that before." "You have?" "Where?" "The island." "My second year marooned there, we" "I came across the remains of a Japanese World War II military project." "It was a serum designed to create human weapons." "Human weapons." "My God, what's next, aliens?" "This is real, Diggle." "Those five years that I was away," "I came across things that just... defy explanation." "There's a doctor, his name is Ivo, and he came to the island to test the serum on people." "The ones that survived, their endurance, reflexes and strength were all enhanced." "And you think this Ivo's in Starling City?" "He's dead." "And so is everyone that he injected with the serum." "The last of which..." "I burned." "You think someone found the recipe." "The centrifuge and a large supply of blood." "I think someone wants to make more of it." "A lot more." "Why couldn't you have been marooned on Aruba?" "There's a third component-- a strong sedative." "I think I preferred it when you left these in people." "I need you to analyze the blood on the arrowhead." "If we can figure out which sedative they're using..." "We can figure out where the next robbery will be." "Barry and I will get right on it." "I think our Miss Smoak is smitten." "Diggle, what did you find out about Mr. Allen?" "He's not who he says he is." "[Slade groaning]" "How are you holding up?" "I could do with a better looking crutch." "Oliver:" "You two seem like you've gotten pretty chummy." "We're here." "There must be a fissure in the island below the waterline for it to come that far inland." "Unbelievable." "They have nitric acid next to hydrazine?" "Permanganates on top of acetone?" "This is the definition of dangerous." "If it's so dangerous, maybe you shouldn't be touching them." "[Thunder]" "Barry." "I managed to get a sample of the perpetrator's blood from the police department." "We need to isolate a sedative in the blood." "It could lead us to the thief." "How did the police get it?" "Apparently the Vigilante shot him with an arrow." "You're kidding." "You know what this means, right?" "This means the Vigilante's working the same case we are!" "Heh." "Go figure." "How did you get it?" "Oliver has a lot of connections." "[Chuckles] Wow." "Pays to work for a billionaire." "Actually my take home's nothing special." "Especially given I am rarely at home, since I'm with him every night." "Ah." "Well, I didn't realize you and he were..." "Oh, no." "Work." "He...and I are not, no, I do not like Oliver." "Um, I was invited to a work function." "It's a party." "And I have a plus-one." "I was thinking you would make a really good..." "plus one." "There's not going to be dancing, is there?" "I'm not just not too good on my feet." "Ohh." "It reeks in here." "I guess your friend wasn't too into painting seascapes." "Max is like any starving artist... starving." "But I could always crash here when I didn't have a place to stay." "Hey, this blood drive was a week ago." "When did you say he went missing?" "That day." "It's Daily." "Someone's looking for Maxwell Stanton." "And they should find him." "Yes, brother blood." "Blood provides life." "Blood provides power." "And with power..." "There's no limit to what I can do." "Central City is just a day away from making history when the controversial S.T.A.R. Lab's particle accelerator is finally turned on." "Pretty cool, right?" "You know there's been a hundred percent increase in earthquakes since they've turned on the Large Hadron Collider." "That data is misleading." "Oh, do tell." "You know about misleading, don't you?" "Felicity:" "What are you talking about?" "He's not from CSI, he's an assistant." "Whose bosses don't know you're in Starling." "And there is no similar case in Central City." "So tell me, Barry..." "What are you really doing here?" "[Exhales]" "I told you my mom was murdered." "By your father." "He didn't do it." "You said that the police didn't find the man who killed her." "The police think they did." "My dad has been serving a life sentence." "They didn't believe me." "About what?" "I was 11." "One night... something just came into our house, like a tornado." "A blur." "Somewhere inside The Blur, I saw a person." "My dad went to fight it." "I tried to get 'em when suddenly..." "[Sighs]" "I was 20 blocks away from our house." "Nobody believed me." "[Chuckles]" "They thought I was trying to cover for my father." "But what I saw that night was real." "As real as the man that ripped down that metal door with his bare hands." "That's why I look into cases like this." "The ones nobody believes are possible." "Maybe if I can just make sense of one," "I might be able to find out who really killed my mother." "And free my dad." "I am sorry I lied to you." "Better find another plus one." "He did like about who he really was." "[Scoffs]" "And what do we do every day?" "[Classical music playing]" "Hey." "How's everything going in there?" "Good evening, Queens." "Can I have a word?" "Yeah." "I'm sorry if I overreacted a little bit earlier." "Oh, you think?" "Look, right now you need to apologize to your mother." "Not me." "For what?" "Your being wrong." "I guess these days, I only draw a crowd when I'm on trial for murder." "Mom, you don't have to..." "We have guests." "However few of them there are." "This is not your fault, Ollie." "How's your mom doing?" "Oh, you know us Queen women-- nothing gets to us." "You must take after your dad." "[Cell phone rings] Sorry." "Sin." "What's up?" "I found Max." "Where?" "I'm on my way." "They find Max?" "Um, no." "She just wants me to stop by." "I can come with you." "You should stay here." "Your mom needs you." "Ok, I'll call you later." "[Sighs]" "Time for a dance?" "Not really feeling like dancing with you, Oliver." "I know." "And that is why I called him." "Fyi-- they will card him at the bar." "Hi." "Hi." "I was serious about not being able to dance." "But I'll hold your hands and sway." "[Chuckles] Sold." "Ok." "[Orchestra playing]" "[Indistinct chatter]" "I tried to warn you." "I tried to ignore you." "I am sorry, Oliver." "Yeah." "Oliver threw you a lovely party." "Oliver's a good son, if not the best judge of character." "Is everything ok?" "Everything's going perfectly." "[Slade groaning and grunting]" "He doesn't have long." "If this miracle drug is onboard, then we need to find it now." "Slade, be back in a few minutes, ok?" "I'll just get comfortable." "Come on." "There." "Mirakuru." "Miracle." "I was never sure it was real." "What happens if we give it to Slade?" "He needs a sedative in his bloodstream first." "They might have potassium bromide or barbital." "Ohh." "It's empty." "What happens if we give it to him without the sedative?" "Sarah!" "He'll die, for sure." "He's going to die anyway." "[Clanging] What was that?" "Ivo and his men." "They're on the sub." "Have you made contact?" "Yes." "He said to tell you that your information was gratefully accepted." "Thank you." "Who was that?" "Nothing to worry about." "Thank you for tonight, Oliver." "It was a lovely party." "I'm so sorry that I put you through that." "Oh, listen, I don't care what anyone else in this city thinks of me." "I only care what you two think." "[Cell phone vibrates]" "And I have to get back to the office." "Excuse me." "Thea." "There's something I need to tell you." "Sure." "What is it?" "I love you." "I love you, too." "Yes." "Yes, sir." "I-- yes, director, I know that this is not the first time." "Yes, sir, I do value my job, very much." "Look, I will be on the next train." "Mm-hmm." "I'll be back tonight." "Ok." "Thank" "Well, my boss found out I don't have food poisoning." "I need to get back to Central City if I still want to be employed." "Which I do." "Tell the SCPD that the sedative in the thief's blood is Ketamine." "It's a schedule three controlled substance." "It shouldn't be too hard to track." "Yeah, I'll make sure they get it." "Thank you." "It was really nice-- thank you for-- working with you." "everything, We couldn't have done it..." "Without you." "Good-bye, Felicity." "Good-bye." "Sin:" "Max!" "Get off, let go!" "Max!" "Get off of me!" "Hey!" "Let her go." "Cut it out!" "Stupid cops." "They're saying Max ODed." "Was he using?" "No!" "He made extra cash donating blood." "You really think the hospital would let him be a donor if he was an addict?" "[Camera shutter clicks]" "Hey." "Can't be here, kid." "Let's go." "They found trace amounts of Ketamine in the thief's blood." "It's a common surgical anesthesia derived from hydrochloric salt." "Can you use that to track him?" "With the current concentration ratio in the blood sample, there's only one possible location with a large enough quality of the sedative that correlates with the amount of blood the stolen centrifuge can process." "What is it?" "There's no sign." "A.R.G.U.S. doesn't like to advertise." "It's a disaster bunker." "Right on the edge of the Glades." "A.R.G.U.S. has them all over the country." "They store relief supplies-- food, clothing..." "Medicine." "I'm on my way." "Oliver..." "I can't believe I'm actually saying this." "The way this arrowhead is bent..." "It means our thief's muscle density is at least 120 pounds per cubic foot." "That's almost the same density as common concrete." "Your arrows may cut this guy, but they will not stop him." "Well, I've beat someone like this before, Felicity." "I can do it again." "What if you can't?" "[Computer beeps]" "Oliver." "Now this, it could save you..." "Or it could kill you." "By the looks on your faces," "I'm going to die anyway." "Sorry." "For what?" "For not telling you how I really feel." "Do it." "[Gasping]" "No!" "[Yelling and groaning]" "What?" "I need your help." "A friend of mine's friend, well, the cops think he ODed, but we think he was murdered." "Why?" "Well, he wasn't an addict, for starters." "And this..." "This doesn't look like any OD I've ever seen." "Stay away from that." "You know something?" "What happened to him?" "You're the one who told me to be your eyes and ears on the streets." "You know what, that is not good enough for me anymore." "Fine." "Then we're done altogether." "I don't need you!" "I have friends that can help me." "You can't stop us." "Slow you down." "Ah!"

"No." "You will not go near Thea, you will not speak to her and you will never set foot in this house again." "I set you free, Moira." "Your life belongs to me." "I am through being afraid of you." "[Chuckles] You think you can stop me?" "Even the Vigilante couldn't kill me." "No, he couldn't." "But I know someone who can." "Ra's al Ghul." "How do you know that name?" "Well, I didn't." "Until you mentioned Nanda Parbat." "The League of Assassins, however twisted their aims, believes very deeply in a code of honor." "Your undertaking betrayed that code." "You told Ra's I'm still alive?" "He was so grateful to hear it." "Because he so very much wants to kill you himself." "So my advice to you, Malcolm..." "Run." "This isn't finished, Moira." "Who are you?" "Merely a follower." "Of who?" "!" "My brother." "Did he give you the mirakuru?" "Did he inject you with it?" "!" "No." "He saved me with it."

"Oliver!" "Can you hear me?" "His pupils are dilated!" "What the hell was that?" "I don't know, it's coded." "Damn it." "Damn it!" "I can't break into the dispensary files." "I have no idea what he was injected with!" "Poisoned with." "All right, we have no choice." "What are you doing?" "Calling 9-1-1." "Dig, wait!" "Can't wait!" "How are we supposed to explain this?" "Everyone's going to find out Oliver's the Vigilante!" "Which won't matter if he's dead." "Felicity, we can't save him!" "I know, you're right..." "We can't." "One way to Central City."

"I'm grand, thanks, grand." "So, I spoke to Michael Arndt, SEC compliance." "He says you're four to three at the moment, it looks good." "All right, anyone with him?" "Yeah, all except Patricia Warren." " Well, that's a pity." " No, no, he says she's, you know... flexible." "Just needs a little nudge, right direction." "She's yours." "It's a done deal."

"Here's one for you, Mike Regan, a 52-year old owner of the private jet business that bears his name is about to take his company public." "He's launching an app for millionaires, I suppose, that'll let 'em book a jet the same way you and I would book an Uber." "Is it gonna work?" "I have no idea." "He needs cash and some deep-pocketed investors, but they are his regular customers." "Not to be left out, Regan needs the SEC to sign off on that IPO." "On to aviation news now."

"Well, you've said that if the SEC approves the initial public offering, the company is going to be valued in the hundreds of millions of dollars." "How will Regan generate earnings?" "Well, there's an app for that." "Regan has what I think is a genius..." "Good morning, everyone." "My name is Mike Regan." "I own this company." "Now, I know you're all here to listen to me talk about this brilliant app we've invented." "But, right now," "I want to talk about flying."

"And then we have Lizzy here, the first female G550 driver." "We love to fly, it's the freedom of it all." "It changes you." "You're not fixed on the ground like some rock." "You're as free as you'll ever be." "But it's expensive, isn't it?" "I'm gonna take this business and blow it up and invent a new one." "Let me show you the future." "Private aviation."

"I'm sorry it's taking so long, Mr. Regan." "Technology, eh?" "Yeah." "There you go, you're back up." "Well, now, that was fun." "Good, very good." "Very, very, very good." "Now, let's talk about Omni." "How do you think it went?" "Home run... despite the glitch." "I hope so, Joan." "We need this." "Need it?" "Need it." "Grab Sully, will you?" "We need to go over the IPO." "Yeah." "All right, Dave, thank you." "Good night, good work, travel safe." "Goodnight, Mike." " Hey." " Sorry." "I'm sorry, Mr. Regan."

"Okay, well, we'll try and fix that." " Okay?" "See you tomorrow." " Thanks." "Hey, listen, can I ask you something?" "Are you doing anything over the weekend?" "No, I'm pretty free." "Good, maybe you can come over to our house, have a look at our internet?" "My daughter's complaining about it." " Would that be okay?" " Not a problem." "Okay, Joan'll give you the address tomorrow." "Good night..." "Ed." "Ed, goodnight, good man." " Hello?" " Err, Ed Porter, ma'am." "I'm sorry, who?" "Err..." "Ed Porter, I'm the I.T. guy."

"I mean, it's great, it's top of the line... for civilian stuff." "So you got something better then?" "Oh, yeah." "I've got something way better." "You know, but it's... it's third party." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Should we be doing this?" "Eh..." "No." "Come on, Mike, you're a pilot, this is DC." "You know the military spec stuff that's out there." "Huh." "I mean, this talks to you, like the civilian stuff." "Tells you which turns to take, all that." "But it's a mil-spec network." "USG satellite coverage." "You know, faster real time, never glitches." "You'll love it." "All right, well, just don't void the warranty." "System upgraded." " Yeah, buddy." " Nice one." "All right." "Yeah." "You're welcome." "I've gotta say, Mike, you've got a lot of old stuff here for a new-build, seriously." "Where the hell were you when my tech team was building the app?" "I was working for someone else." "Say, can I get your wi-fi password?" "It's just reganhome1." " One word?" " Yeah." "Who were you working for?" "The government." "Really?" "Is that where you learned your stuff?" "Mostly." "I was recruited straight out of college." "No shit." "To do what?" " Oh, signals, intel stuff." " Really?" "What do you mean?" "I'm not really supposed to talk about it." "Got it." "Hey, you know that the smart panels in your home have got built-in cameras, right?" "Yeah, I had 'em disabled." "I like my privacy." "Privacy's over, Mike." "It's a whole new world now." "Well, I'll hold onto it for as long as I can." "All right, good luck with that." "What do you mean?" "Privacy isn't a right, it's a privilege." "You're not serious?" "The U.S. Constitution contains no expressed right to privacy." "Really?" "First amendment, privacy of the home, third amendment, privacy of the person, fourth and fifth, privilege against self-incrimination, but nowhere does it say," ""You have the inalienable right to privacy."" "Well, I'm talking about all this internet stuff." "All this crap where I can't take a shit without someone's opinion, you know?" "You know, what I mean is," "I don't think it's making anyone's life better." "Well, I guess it just depends on what your life was to begin with, you know?" "I'll be back in a jiffy." "I just gotta get something from my car." "Well, that's just about everything." "It all should be running much faster and smoother by now." "Good, really appreciate it, Ed." "You know Rose." "This is our daughter, Kaitlyn." " Hi." " Hey." "Honey, this is Ed, our new IT guy." " Nice to meet you, Ed." " Nice to meet you, too, Rose." "Come, relax, join us." "Well, I should probably get going, my girlfriend..." "Ah, come on, let's have a drink." "Just one." "There you go." "Kaitlyn, watch the steaks." "Come on, good man." "Enjoy." "You have a beautiful home, Mike." "Beautiful payments, too." "Tell me something, did you really learn all your stuff from the government?" " I was with the NSA." " No shit?" " The NSA?" " Yeah." "Hang on, picture of me here in Kandahar." "Would you look at that." "Why'd you leave?" "Oh, you see things, and..." "I don't like talking about it." "It's crazy, what they do." "Ed, that presentation you came in and saved the other day?" "Your Omni app?" " Yeah, I signed the NDA." " Yeah, I know, I know." "Well, when that thing goes, I'm gonna need guys like you." "And there's great opportunities to be had, I promise you." "So... stick around, Ed." "I hear you, I will." "Channel 5 Weather Center just to update you on the line of severe thunderstorms that extends from up near Sherman to about Denton, then down to the north and west." "You're in a precarious situation, Mike." "You're overextended." "I know." "You need capital to finance the Omni project, which is what your investors are for." "Securitized loans." "Now, if the SEC approve them, you launch your IPO." "If they don't, you have to liquidate, and your fleet goes to auction for pennies on the dollar." "What does your gut say?" "The SEC sent me a preliminary report." "I think we're on firm ground, it's just... they'll issue the final decision very soon." "So we're good then?" "Unless something new comes to light, yeah." "It won't, will it, Mike?" "No." "That's everything." " Good morning." " Good morning, Mr. Regan." "Can you put this on my desk, please?" "Thank you." "Good morning." " Good morning, Mr. Regan." " I'm coming." "I'll do that right away." "Yeah, I'll see you at three." " Andy, good morning to you." " Hey, Mike." " It's all good?" " We're good." "Hot-shot here defragged it." "Your boy Ed knows his stuff." "Glad to hear it." "Good man, Ed." "Thank you." "Come on, Andy, smile." "Come on now, there you go, Andy." "Yeah, really." "Yeah." "Let me show you this." "All right, let's see what you're looking at here." "Are you trying to get me drunk?" "Yes." "Yes, I am." "How did you know?" "Yep." "I got it." "Evening, Mike." "Ed?" "What are you doing here, Ed?" "Err, Kaitlyn, she... she texted me." "Well, if she did, she... she made a mistake." "This is family friends." "Oh." "Oh, I'm sorry, um..." "Take the wine, it's from Spain." "No thanks." "I should probably..." "I should probably get going." "Have a good night." " Who was it?" " Nobody." "Kate, you can't invite people to dinner without asking me or your mother first." "Are we clear?" "Invite who?" "I didn't invite anybody." "Is everybody okay for drinks?" " Are we okay?" " Yeah." "Come on, Kaitlyn, Katie!" " Hey." " Katie!" " You gotta be kidding me." " Do not make a scene." "Wow, they're playing great, huh?" "Right?" "What are you doing here, Ed?" "Oh, Kaitlyn asked me online." "Yeah." "What, you two are talking together online?" "Yeah, yeah." "She just said, "Come see my team play."" "Here I am." "Yeah!" "You're getting very good at this, sweetheart." " You really are, honey." " Thank you." "Hey, you guys did great out there." "Ed!" "Hey." " Are you hungry?" " Yeah, I'm starving." "Good, let's go get something to eat." "Sounds great." "Ed, this is a kind of family thing." "You know what I mean?" "Sunday, dinner, that kind of thing." " Oh, sure." " Hey, and thanks for stopping by." "See you at work." "Bye, Rose." " Kaitlyn." " Bye." "Enjoy your dinner!" "I don't know why you had to be so mean to him." " I am not being mean to him." " He could've come." "I'm just setting boundaries, that's all." "He works for me, he's not family." "Okay, well, I think he's nice." "Yeah, and he's a lot older than you." " He's 28, he told me." " And you're 17." " Hey." " Hey." " Something wrong?" " No, nothing." "I got the mammogram today, you know I hate them." "I do." "But it's always fine and you're always fine." "I know." "I love you." "And I love you." " Dare you to do it." " Oh, my God, maybe I guess." "Hey, what are you doing this weekend?" "Well what do you think?" "I thought we were going to that party." "That's what I want to do." "I don't want to sit around, I want to go out." "Hey!" "Kaitlyn!" "Ed?" "Hey." "Come on, jump in, I'll give you a ride home." " Hey, how do you..." "Where did you..." " She's fine, I'm giving her a ride." "Sure, why not?" "Text me later." "Bye." "Bye, later, friend-o." "So, was that guy your boyfriend?" "Sort of." "Uh-huh." "He seems a little immature for you." "We grew up together, so..." "We're mostly just friends." "So you haven't had sex yet?" "Wouldn't you like to know?" "Your dad'd kill me." "Major stock market indexes are higher today." "Investors are focusing on companies that beat..." "Oh, boy-o." "...their earnings estimates." "The Lunberg 991 Washington DC index is up one percent, a good..." "Ah, you little shit!" "He's out back, go talk to him." "Dad, Ed got me the new phone." "Yeah, I get 'em for practically nothing, I..." " Dude, let's have a chat." " Something, something wrong?" " You can't give my daughter a phone." " Dad!" "You can't give her a ride, either." " Dad, that's so..." " Just be quiet." " He's being nice!" " She asked me to." " Why do you take his side?" " I don't care!" "Okay?" "What is the problem?" "He's trying to be nice!" " It's just a phone." " No, it's not." "I mean, why are we even having this conversation?" "I don't know, I didn't do anything wrong." "Ed, boy-o, this isn't working for me." " Mike, we're friends." " No, no, no." "You work for me, okay?" "Actually, you know, you don't anymore." "You're out of here, all right?" "Tomorrow, clear your desk out." "Mike." " Good luck, Ed!" " Mike!" "Kaitlyn!" "Let's have a talk here." "You are unbelievable!" "Every time I make a fucking friend, you ruin it!" " Don't swear at me!" " I hate living here!" "You said ten o'clock, right?" "It's the SEC, Mike." "Relax, we're in good shape." "Yeah, yeah." "Omni?" "I'm Linda Martinez, SEC Fraud Division." " What?" " We have an issue." "As you are no doubt aware, Mr. Regan, under Section 4 of the SEC Compliance Regulations, any attempt to lobby, coerce, or collaborate with any member of the compliance committee will trigger an investigation and a subsequent delay to any initial public offering." "Well, clearly it wouldn't be in my client's best interest to..." "We have received evidence of such collaboration." "We've also received evidence of electronic document tampering." "Look, um..." "I'm prepared to resubmit the documents in question here and now." "We have therefore no other choice than to delay or suspend your application for an initial public offering." "Delay?" "By what, a couple of weeks?" " Or months." " Months!" "Are you fucking kidding me?" "We'll be in touch." "Good day." "Someone's fucking with us." "Oh, my God, my God!" "I don't know." "That play was just beyond me, I'm sorry, I..." "You hated every minute of it." "Sorry, I want my two hours back." " You were asleep." " Yeah." "All right, what's wrong?" " Mike." " I..." "Nothing." " It's fine." " What?" " We had to fire that guy." " What guy?" "Ed Porter, the I.T. guy." "The one that came around to the house?" "Mm-hm." "Good, he was a creep." "Well, don't worry." "He's long gone." "No, what else?" "There's something else." "I'm under pressure with the SEC." "We all thought it was going fine, and it's really just going down the shitter." " Is it gonna be okay?" " I..." "I don't know." "I don't know." " Mike." " Wha..." "Mike." "Wake up." "I think there's someone in the house." "Door opening." "Stay there." "Mike?" "Mike!" "Come on, you piece of fucking shit!" "Fuck!" "Fuck!" "Turn off!" "System set." " What was that?" " It's fine, everything's fine." "No, everything's not fine!" "What the fuck was that?" "Everything's fine, okay?" "Back to bed, everyone, don't worry." "Kaitlyn, I'm sorry about that craziness last night." "You must be tired." "Morning." "Mike, I've got bad news." "We've been hacked." "It looks bad." "We have software glitches across every single aircraft." "What the f..." "I don't know what to tell you, Mike." "He got in somehow." "I already called the police." "Our sales reps are on the phones now, calling them one at a time and telling them to ignore the email." "That's fucking great." "It's costing us upward of $1.2 million a day." "What about the emails, screwing with our clients?" "They were definitely generated from our servers." "They all have our IP address." "Clients think they came from us." "Can we shut him down?" " Who?" " Porter, the guy we fired." " I don't know." " Who else could do this?" "Yeah, but he had access, so he probably put a bunch of back doors on the server." " That's what I'd do." " Look..." "Look, just change everything, the pass codes, the words." "Do what you guys do." "Secure this place." " Get it done, please!" " Okay, Mike." "Let's go, guys." "All right, quiet, everybody!" " Come on, kids." "Stay together." " Make sure you've got everything!" "Bye-bye, honey." "You've reached Dr. Francis Klein." "If this is an emergency, hang up and call 9-1-1." "Otherwise please leave a message after the tone." "Hi, this is Rose Regan, I'm a patient of Dr. Klein's." "Can, um..." "Can you have him call me as soon as possible, please?" "It's, um..." "It's about an email he just sent me." "Thank you." "Would you turn that off, please?" "Listen, I'd like everyone to stay off their smart phones and their computers for as much as possible, okay?" " I have a paper to write." " So write it." "Fine." "Everyone in this fucking house is crazy." "Doctor Klein?" "Yeah, gimme a second." "Yeah, I wanted to talk to you about the email you sent." "The pathology report?" "Yes, that I tested positive for breast cancer." "You do that?" "You send that in an email, really?" "No, I have your pathology report right here in front of me." "It's negative." " I was just gonna call you about it, Rose." " Negative, are you sure?" "Yes." "Negative." "Please don't worry." "You're perfectly fine." "No, thank you." "Thank you, Doctor." "I don't know who emailed you what, but everything looks fine." "Rusty, you okay?" "No, I'm not." "I got an email today about the mammogram and it said that I tested positive for breast cancer." "Oh, my God." " Oh, my God." " No, I'm fine, I spoke to the doctor." " He said..." " Are you okay?" "I'm okay." "He said that I'm fine." " Are you sure?" " He's scaring me, Mike." "It had to be him." "Mike?" "Fucker." "I'll tear him to pieces, Rose." "I swear to God, I'll fucking tear him to pieces." "Stay away from me and family, you got it?" "You shouldn't fuck over your friends, Mike." "You fucking psycho." "I'm not your friend." "I didn't touch your family... yet." "You try that, I will fucking kill you." "You understand me?" "Fuck you, Regan." "I spent my whole life dealing with bullies like you." "Yeah. "Oh, he's got fucking special skills!" "Let's fucking use him!"" "You fucking used me, Mike." "I wonder if your clients know what a two-faced, fucking piece of shit you are." "Tough guy, huh?" "Huh?" "We'll see how tough you are when your fucking planes start falling out of the sky." "Mike, I've got your whole operation strung up like a mine field." " Bullshit." " You wanna find out?" "You stay the fuck away from my family, you hear me?" "Stay the fuck away from my family!" "Hey, I got that video." "I'm sorry." "I'm here, Kaitlyn, my darling girl, I'm so sorry." "I am so sorry, child." "Listen, I tried to warn you, I did." "The pictures you take, the things that you record, they can be used to hurt you." "Do you understand?" "Do you understand what I'm saying?" "Dad, I didn't..." "I didn't take any pictures." "I took a shower!" "Okay, I didn't do any of this!" "That fucking creep you let in the house, he did this!" "All right, all right, Kaitlyn, that's enough." "No, Dad, this isn't my fault!" "This is your fault!" "Just..." "No, go away!" " Kaitlyn..." " Honey, honey?" "Great!" "Great job, Mike." "Don't start." " Don't start?" " Take her home!" "Where are you going?" "Mike!" "Let me guess, you're on your way?" "I'm gonna kill you, Porter." "I am gonna fucking kill you!" "Oh, bad move!" "Recorded death threat, Michael." "You fucking phoned me!" "Hey, Mike, you know what I learned at the NSA?" "Everybody is a liar." "The polished man with the successful business and the perfect family." "Beautiful wife, beautiful house, gorgeous daughter." "It's all a fucking lie." "Let's chat about darling little Kaitlyn." "Mm, Kaitlyn, Mike." "Do you think she's still a virgin?" "Because, Mike, I have my doubts." "Right, Daddy?" "You little fucker." "Don't you fucking go near my daughter!" "Oh, they grow up so fast." " You fucker!" " Don't they, Michael?" "Oh, Mike, c'mon." "I gave her a life lesson." "You're a dead man, it's as simple as that." "You're a fucking dead man!" "I'm a dead man?" "Mike, I just don't think you have it in you to kill anybody." "You just don't have that... that le... that level of control." "Come on, you little fucker!" "I'll fucking kill you!" "You're not the master of the universe, Mike." "You're a dead man, Porter!" "So, you told the officer the car went out of control." "He tried to kill me!" "What are you gonna do?" "Okay, look." "The thing is, one of my detectives was at your company, took a bunch of statements." "Your I.T. guys were all very eager to mention Mr. Porter by name." "Yeah, well they worked with him." "I mean, no one liked him." "And there's this SEC investigation going on with your company." "I'd say you've got a lot on your plate, Mr. Regan." "Yeah, meaning?" "I'd hate for you to go blaming this poor schmuck for all your problems." "Oh, so I'm the bad guy now, is that what you're saying?" " No, I didn't say that." " He tried to kill me!" "You have any evidence that he's actually done any of these things," "Mr. Regan?" " Are you all right?" " No." "You?" "What did the cops say?" "Are they gonna do anything?" "Mike?" "Nothing." "I am so sorry." "I love you, Mike." "You're the love of my fucking life, but I don't want to hear that." "I don't want to hear sorries." "You brought that man into our house," "into our home." "I want you to sort it out." "Yeah." "Fix it." "All right?" "Yeah." "Okay?" "Fix it." " I will." " Promise?" "I promise, come here." "Hello?" "May I speak to Peter Buck, please?" "Yeah, this is... this is Peter Buck." "Peter, this is Mike Regan." "Mike, hey." "Listen, I am sorry to call you so late." "What can I do for you, Mike?" "Peter, I need a favor." "Okay." "I'm listening." "It's not just online fraud stuff, I get it." "You gotta dig deep and take care of the problem at its source." "You need someone who can do what he does." "You're being attacked." "You have to look at the true point of view of an attack." "You've got so many multiple weak spots." "You know, we're not screwing around here, Mike." "You need to shut this guy down." "Mike, with a guy like this, you can't just get rid of him, you know?" "He's gonna have left time-bombs, trip-wire emails, the whole lot." "You gotta clean it up." "You can't just, you know, disappear this guy." "We have guys, you know, we have cleaners." "You know, that's what we call them." "State Department, CIA, has different names for them, but we call them cleaners." "Yeah, there's a..." "There's a guy we use at the State Department." "He's sort of off-program." "He might, err... might be what you need." "Peter Bu..." "I am Henrik." "May I have your cell phone please, Mr. Regan?" "Thank you." "Your phone will function normally in 24 hours." "Shall we get moving?" "To your right." "What's gonna happen, Mom?" "I don't know." "What are you doing?" "I don't want him to see my face." "I'm back!" "This is my new friend." "It's okay, it's okay." "He doesn't want Porter to see his face." "Very nice to meet you." "Yeah, thank you." "Nice to meet you." "Hi." " May I?" " Go ahead." "Very beautiful prison and... broadcast facility you've built here." " All the house like this?" " Uh-huh." " Smart everywhere?" " Yeah." "All the rooms?" "Yeah." "How do we start?" "We make the house dumb." "Okay, Mr. Regan, the first thing we do is sterilize you and your family." "We need to do all we can to scrub you from the web, reduce your footprint to make you a smaller target." "Miss Regan, I need everything, it must be absolute." "We start with the house." "We need to make our enemy deaf, dumb and blind." "Done." "I need you to be completely honest with me or this doesn't work." "I'm not here to judge, Mr. Regan, I'm here to fix your problem." "So, if you've touched a computer in the last five years I need to know when, where, and why." "This might take a while." "This fucking house." "It means nothing to me." "So why did you build it?" "I don't know." "The only two things I care about are sleeping in the other room." "Everything else... is just bullshit." "What?" "His name is not Ed Porter." "He was born Richard Edward Portman, Hawthorne, California." "January 12, 1983." "Parents divorced, 1986." "He lives with his mum, moves a lot." "His father commits suicide, 1989." "He spent his teenage years in protective custody." "His mother was abusive towards him." "How predictable." "It would explain his obsession with you and your family." "His medical records includes a wide range of pharmaceuticals:" "Lumictil, Zoloft, Neurontin..." "So... so what are we dealing with here?" "A sociopath, a psychopath?" "He has serious mental health issues." "Broad spectrum." "Okay, here we go." "Ah, as I suspected." "He never worked for NSA." "Wait a second, he... he showed me a photograph of himself with these soldiers in Kandahar." " This one?" " That's the one." "Not for real." "Not a team guy." "Hired by some NSA subcontractor, 2009." "Fired for "misuse of proprietary technology."" "Okay, what does that mean?" "Apparently spied on female co-workers and ex-girlfriends." " Jesus." " Works as an independent IT tech." "Seven, eight companies." "No job lasts more than a couple of months." "Then hired by you." "Lucky you." "Look, he's really quite sick, but he's also a bad man, Mr. Regan." "Nice firewall, Mr. Porter." "Not so clever, not so clever." "What is it?" "Nothing on his drive." "So?" "Hackers don't trust the cloud." "They operate from peripherals, thumb drives, air-gapped laptops." "Portable items." " Very good news." " Why?" "We hire someone to break in and take them." "Good news, you have them in your possession, for evidence or to destroy." "I'll do it." "Excuse me?" "I'll do the break-in." "I need everything he's got on me." "You're a connected man, Mr. Regan, we hire someone." "I'm sick and tired of hiring people to fix my life." "That's how I got into this mess." "I'll do this myself, no debate." "Very well." "How do we get him out of there?" "Good question." "She could get him out of there." "Excuse me, what time do you close tonight?" "We close at 11:00." "I'm so sorry." " Are you okay?" " Yes, sorry." "Okay." "That's okay." " What time?" " Um, 11:00." "Eleven o'clock, thank you very much." "Okay, now we control her dating app." "He bought it." "When you enter, you will trigger his alarm." "I can silence it, but it will send him a signal." "I can delay it as long as practical." "For this part, we go low tech." "Good luck." "Wait for my signal, and remember, Mr. Regan, be careful." "Go." "In three, two, one..." "Oh, shit." "Wait!" "We're good." "Continue." "He's here." "As quickly as you can, Mr. Regan." "Let's go to work." "Place the camera." "Okay, how's this?" "Okay, good." "Go to his desk." "I got here as fast as I could." "Do not touch the computer." "Err..." "How... how are you?" "I'm not actually, um, working right now." "Oh, that's okay, me neither." "Under his desk." "I got your message." " Message?" " Yeah, yeah." "There's nothing." "There's nothing here." "They could be anywhere." "There's nothing here." "It will be in the room." "Look around you." "There's just some fucking toy-type thing." "He doesn't have toys." " That's it." " What?" "It's a fucking toy." "Pull it apart." " Take it apart, Mike." " Ah, damn it!" "Come on." "We have to move quickly, Mr. Regan." "Hey, where's my phone?" "Where is it?" "Where is my phone?" "I got it." "Okay, that's one." "Seriously, I can't find it." "That's two." "Wait, did you take my phone?" "No, I didn't take your phone." "Someone's been playing games." "Oh, shit." "You must hurry." "Just leave it, abort." "Sixty seconds." "Damn it, come on!" "We're burned." "He's on the move." "Abort!" " I got them all." " Grab what you can." "He's moving." "Now or never." " Forty seconds." " I'm almost there." " That's it, I got them all." " Five seconds." "Get out now!" " He has a gun." " What?" "Where is he?" "Okay, wait." "Can you confirm you're going to the..." "In the building." "We got an officer down inside," "Division Eight, Battalion One, on a shooting... 14300 East Alameda Avenue." "I see him." "Do exactly as I say." "I'll tell you when to move." "Step into the hall." "Wait." "Go." "Your left." "The fire escape, next floor up." "Go!" "Hey!" "You motherfucker!" "I got them, I got them." "Okay, let's go!" "Come on." "Freeze, on your knees!" "Don't move!" "Put the gun down, now!" " I have a permit!" " Drop the fucking weapon!" " I have a permit." " Put it down!" "Oh, shit." "Look, officers, my permit's in order, I just..." "I need it." "There's this guy..." "What guy?" "This guy, I used to work for him..." " He's been stalking me." " You can't shoot him." "I won't." "You got a problem, then you come to us." "Okay." " All right?" " All right." "What do you need a gun for?" "You come to us, and we'll sort it out." "Edward?" "I just..." "I just need it." "You know, I've been fucking scared." "I just don't know where else to turn." "You come to us and we'll sort it out." "Yeah." "Now I'm gonna give you this gun, tonight," " at the station." " Okay." "After you calm down." "Thank you." "9-1-1, where is your emergency?" "9-1-1, what is your emergency?" "Hello, operator?" " Sir." " Hello" "My name is Edward Porter." "I'd like to report a..." "Yes, I've been attacked." "Tell me what's wrong with you, okay?" "It's, it's a, what do you call it, it's a home invasion." "All right, I need you to stay calm, okay?" "I don't know if he's still here." "I'm hurt pretty bad, can you please come?" "422 147th Street." " I have..." " Please come, please!" "I have someone coming to you." "Good luck, Mr. Regan, with the rest of it." "Thanks." "It's all there." "All his programs." "All the information he gathered on me." "Everything he used to try and wreck my life." "It's all there, everything." "Have your lab look at it." "How did you get these?" "Jim, can I see you for a minute?" " What's up?" " Nah, I just need to see you for a minute." "Yeah, sure." "Thanks." "I'll be back, Mr. Regan." "What, Mike Regan over there?" "Are you kidding?" "Huh?" "What are we gonna do about it?" "Well, I mean, evidence is..." "All right." "You gonna do it?" "All right." " Stand up, please." " Michael Regan, you are under arrest for burglary and aggravated assault." "You have the right to remain silent." "Anything you say may be used against you." "You have the right to have any attorney present when being questioned." "If you can't afford an attorney, one will be appointed to you by the court of law of the city of Baltimore." "Do you understand and hear these rights?" "That's him, right there!" "Right there, that's him!" " Keep walking." " You motherfucker!" " Hey, hey!" " I see you, Porter!" "Don't let him go, don't let him fucking walk!" "Come on, take him out of here!" "Hey, Porter!" "You shit bag, Porter!" "You fucking motherfucker, that's him!" " Take it easy." " I'll fuckin' kill ya!" "He's, um..." "Dad's in jail, right?" "Hey, hey." "Dad's gonna be okay." "Honey, he didn't do anything wrong." " Sir." " Can I help you?" "I was wondering if, um, I could perhaps have my thumb drives back?" "They're evidence." "You can have them back when our lab says so." "I also had a legally held firearm." "That you can have." "See the desk sergeant on the way out." "Good night." "Thank you, sir." "Goodnight." "You're the I.T. guy, right?" "Yeah, that's right, Ed Porter." "Yeah, Mike Regan, you really saved my ass in there today, thanks." "This is my daughter, Kaitlyn, you know Rose." "Stick around." "You fucking psycho, I am not your friend." "Listen to me, I will fucking kill you!" "Rose?" "Who's there?" "Who's there?" "Nobody." "Drop the knife, Mike." "They look perfect, don't they?" "Hm?" " Tough guy?" " Oh!" "Come on, sit up straight." "Sit up straight." "Sit up straight!" "Ed." "So, here we are, all together now." "Let's play happy families, let's sing a song." "Then maybe I kill everyone in the room." "Rose, shoulders back." "Come on, Rose." "Is this what you want?" "Is this what you want, is that what you want?" "I'm not scared of you any more, Mike." "I don't like you any more, Mike." "# No one listens any more #" "# When no one listens, what are words for #" "# When no one listens #" "# No one's listening at all #" "Mike, Mike." "Mike!" "Mike." "Mike!" "Mike!" "Please." "Don't." "Mike?" "Mike!" "Mike, please, don't." "For god's sake!" "Don't kill him!" "Please, don't kill him!" "Honey, please."

"The One Where Old Yeller Dies" "Have you guys eaten?" "Richard and I just finished, and we've got leftovers." "Chicken and potatoes." "What am I wearing?" "Actually, nothing but rubber gloves." "One of these times, you'll really be naked and we won't come over." "I got a leg, three breasts and a wing." "How do you find clothes that fit?" "Hey, Monica?" "We got a question." "All right, yes, I see other women in the shower at the gym." "And no, I don't look." "No, not that one." "We're figuring out who to bring to the Nicks game." "Ross can't go, so it's between my friend Eric Prower, who has breath issues and Dan, with the poking." ""Did you see that play?"" ""You want more beer?" "Is that Spike Lee?"" "Why don't you ask Richard?" "Richard, if you had an extra ticket to the Nicks game and you had to choose between a friend who smelled and one who bruises you, who would you pick?" "Being a huge Nicks fan myself I think you should take someone who's a huge Nicks fan." "That's Eric." "Glad to be of help." "Matches." "I meant, why don't you take Richard to the game?" "What?" " I don't know." " Come on!" "He keeps his fingers to himself, and he's always minty fresh." "Richard's really nice." "We just don't know him really well." "Plus, he's old..." " er than some people." "But younger than some buildings." "So what, he's a little older." "Big deal." "He's important to me." "If you ask him, he might take you in his Jag." "How do we say yes and make it seem like it's not just to ride in the cool car?" "Okay, this could be tough." "We'll bring him, but only if he takes the Jaguar." "You almost had it." "No, no, you're fine." "You're fine." "Hi, honey." "You are not gonna believe what happened!" "We were playing on the floor, and he grabs the table and he pulls himself up!" "He pulled himself up!" "Standing man!" "I'm sorry you missed it, but I did tape it if you wanna see it." "We know." "He already did it last week." "You can watch our tape if you want." "See, I don't believe this." "I missed the first time of everything." "The first time he rolled over, the first time he crawled." "What else?" "Has he spoken?" "Is he driving?" "Does he have a favorite liqueur?" "He is getting closer on the talking thing." "He can't quite say "mama" yet, but once he said "Yemen"." "See, I don't know." "I'm so sick of missing stuff." "I want him for more than a day." "I want him for a whole weekend." "Listen." "I feel..." "That would be great." "Really?" "I had a whole speech prepared." "Oh, shoot, that would've been fun." "Did you just see that?" "Did you see?" "He just waved!" "He just waved!" "He's never waved before!" "Yes, he has." "Very good." "What you got there?" "Love Story, Brian's Song and Terms of Endearment." "All you need now is "The Killing Fields" and guacamole, and you got a party!" "I talked to my grandma about the "Old Yeller" incident and she said my mom used to not show us the ends of sad movies to shield us from the pain and sadness." "You know, before she killed herself." "Where's Richard?" "Did you ditch him?" "After we stole his lunch money and gave him a wedgie." "What's the matter?" "He's parking the car." " Did you guys have fun?" " Your boyfriend is so cool." "He let us drive his Jaguar." "Joey for 12 blocks." "Me for 15." "He must like you best." "What about when he tipped the guy who showed us to our seats?" "You never even saw the money." "Hey, Chandler, thanks for showing us to our seats." "You're welcome." "Hey, Joey, thanks for parking the car." "No problem." " Hey, Chandler..." " I think they get it." "There's the man!" "Hey, you're getting better." "I'm gonna keep this." "He kept my dollar." "Your first weekend without Ben." "What are you doing?" "We're going to colonial Williamsburg." "A woman I went to college with is the first female blacksmith there." "They're a little behind the times in colonial Williamsburg." "Look, I better go before Mommy starts weeping." " We love you." " Bye, Mommy." "Have a good time." "Look." "Joey, do you know we can see you from here?" "How come Richard looks cooler with one of these?" "You may wanna light it and lose the spatula." "It's cute, you trying to be more like Richard." "Not like him, per se." "Just not unlike him." "It's the artist formerly known as Chandler." "I'm just trying something here, you know?" "Why didn't you grow a mustache?" "We flipped for it." "I got the cigar, he got the mustache." "If we both grew them, we'd look like dorks." "You really sidestepped that land mine." "I promised Richard we'd meet him downstairs." "You're meeting Richard?" " Ranger game." " Didn't he tell you?" "He said he was going out with the guys." "I didn't know that was you." "You hear that?" "We're the guys!" "With that mustache, he reminds me of Aunt Sylvia." "Thank you!" "Hi." "We're visiting." "It's Ben and his dada." "Can you say "dada"?" "I'm telling your mommies you said it, so you might as well." "No luck, huh?" "A while ago, I got a "seh" out of him which I thought might turn into "seh-condary caregiver", but..." "Would you hold him for a sec?" "I gotta take this off." "Sure." "Okay." "What are you doing?" "I'm holding Ben." "He's a baby, not a bomb." "Hold him like you'd hold a football." "This is how I would hold a football." "Here." "Here." "There we go." "Sorry, I'm not very good with babies." "I haven't been around them." "I mean, you know, since I was one." " It's all right." "No big deal." " Really?" "I'm sure you'll feel different when it's our baby." " What?" " What?" "You think about stuff like that?" "Yeah." "I mean..." "Actually, I kind of think that we'll have two babies." "Two babies?" "You know, a boy and a girl." "Hopefully, the girl will come first, so Ben won't feel competitive." "Then what's gonna happen?" "We won't wanna raise kids in the city, so we'll move to Scarsdale." "We'll be far enough from our parents so we don't have to see them but close enough that they can baby-sit." "And yes, I know the taxes are a little higher than Nassau County but the school system's great." "Wow, that's great!" "Great!" "Okay, wow!" "You know what?" "I'm off my break now." "Here." "You take this." "I'm gonna go pour these very nice people some coffee." "Look at that." "I don't have a pot." "I don't have a pot." "Maybe I've got one at home." "Or in Scarsdale." "Hey, is that a door?" "Hey, Pheebs." "What's happening?" "Murder, cancer, soccer teams eating each other in the Andes." "So you watched the movies?" "What is happening to the world?" "I mean..." "No, no, because E.T. Leaves and Rocky loses." "Charlotte dies." "Charlotte who?" "With the web." "The spider." "She dies." "She has babies and dies." "It's like, "Welcome home from the hospital." Thud!" "You wanna feel better?" "Here." "Watch this." "It's a Wonderful Life." "I've heard of this." "So you can't lose." "It's there in the title." "Wonderfulness is baked right in." "I fell for that with Pride of the Yankees." "I thought I'd see a film about Yankee pride." "And boom!" "The guy gets Lou Gehrig's disease." "The guy was Lou Gehrig." "Didn't you kind of see it coming?" "Watch that." "It'll restore all your faith in humanity." "Hey, big guy." "Game time." " Hey!" "Be right there!" " There's a game?" "I just got my Pik-Up Stiks back from the shop." "Bring your nerves of steel." "It's the basketball playoffs." "I appreciate this, but you don't have to hang out with them for me." "They have each other." "Oh, no, honey." "I mean, don't worry." "I like hanging out with them." "They're different than my other friends." "They don't start sentences with "You know who just died shoveling snow?"" "All right, that's great." "Then just go." "Go Nicks!" "It's the college playoffs." " Then, go Vassar!" " They're not in it." "Okay, then just go." "Why does this bother me so much?" "I'm not one of those people who wants to spend 24 hours a day together." "Sure." "He just doesn't have much free time." "What do I do?" "Does it matter?" "You'll just die or divorce or blow your pet's head off." "Me too!" "Rachel, I got a question." "Richard made plans again with the guys..." "Ross made plans for the century." "I'm gonna go read "Cosmo"." "Maybe there's something helpful in it." "If not, I can learn how to do a bikini wax with leftover Christmas candles." "What happened back there?" "I don't know." "You tell me." "One minute I'm holding Ben, then I've got two kids I'm living in Scarsdale complaining about taxes!" "Well, I'm sorry." "I think about stuff." "You're at work, you're assembling bones, your mind wanders." "You've planned out the next 20 years." "We've dated for six weeks!" "You never think about our future?" "I think about whose apartment we'll sleep at tomorrow and where we'll have dinner next Saturday!" "I do not think about our children's names!" "You know what our children's names will be?" "No, I mean, you know." "I read a book, and there was a girl named Emily." "And I thought that might be good." "What book?" "The Big Book of Children's Names." "Okay, listen." "What we have is amazing." "But I do not want everything decided for me!" "I spent my whole life like that." "It's what I had with Barry." "That's a reason I left." "I like not knowing right now." "Sorry if that scares you, but if you wanna be with me, deal with that!" " Okay, fine!" " Thank you!" " We're not done!" " I didn't know that." "You're with a guy who won't stop planning his future with you." "He knows we'll end up together." "If that scares you, tough!" "You'll have to deal with that." " I will!" " Good, because I love you!" "Oh, yeah?" "I love you too!" " That's the first time we've said that!" " Yes, it is!" " I'm gonna kiss you!" " You better!" "Thanks for the great movie tip." " Did you like it?" " Oh, yeah." "I don't know if I was happier when George Bailey destroyed the business or Donna Reed cried or when the pharmacist made his ear bleed." "I'll give you the ear thing, but wasn't the ending wonderful?" "I didn't watch it." "I was too depressed." "It kept getting worse!" "It should've been called:" ""It's a Sucky Life, And Just When You Think It Can't Suck Anymore, It Does!"" "Kick, save!" "And denied!" "He gets it back." "Pass to the middle, lines it up..." "Yes!" "Could that shot be any prettier?" "Man, you are incredible." "We had a table in college." "Really?" "I didn't know they had foosball in the 1800s." "Nice mustache." "At puberty, that thing will really kick in." "Not to sound too Florence Henderson, but dinner's on the table." "One more point." "Score!" "Now can we go?" "That's why we don't let her play." "Is everything all right?" "Don't be mad at him." "It's our fault." "I'm sorry we've been hogging his time." "He's just really great to hang out with." " Well..." " No, seriously." "We just talked about this." "He is so much cooler than our dads." "Our dads are okay and all, but Richard is just..." "What are you kicking me for?" "I'm trying to talk here." "You guys see me as a dad?" " Oh, yeah!" " No!" "You're just clearly not familiar with our young persons' vernacular." "When we say "dad", we mean "buddy"." "We mean "pal"." "No, seriously." "Joey's my dad." "Monica's my dad." "I've even got some dads down at work." "That's fine." "Well, your other dad and I are gonna go have a romantic evening." "I'll just see you kids around." "Nighty-night." "You're not a dad!" "I can't believe you got us into trouble." "So are you okay?" "Just I feel like I'm about a hundred." "I thought I was just one of the guys." "Come here." "I'll make you feel like one of the guys." "For a really cool guy, you suck at foosball." "I was killing them." "Yeah, well they suck too." "You take the poopy diaper and put it in the poopy diaper pail." "Calling it a "poopy diaper" doesn't make this process any cuter." " It's us." " Come on up." "I'll get his stuff together." "Okay, we can do this now, can't we, Ben?" "Yes, we can." "Yes, we can." "There!" "I did it!" "I did it!" "Look at that!" "It stays on and everything." "I'm sorry." "What did you just say?" "Did you just say "hi"?" "Oh, my God!" "Ross?" "Ben just said hi!" " What?" " Ben just said hi!" "What, the word "hi"?" "No, my Uncle Hi." "Great!" "And I missed that too." "I miss everything!" "Oh, I'm sorry." "I guess I just bring it out in him." " Where is he?" " We missed you." "We missed you so much!" "Come here, Ben." "Guess what?" "Ben just said his first word." "What did he say?" "Something about hi." "That's so exciting!" "Mommy's so proud of you!" "You know, actually, it's more like, hi!" "This could go on for a while." "You're right." "We've got a cab waiting." "Well, this was fun." "We should do it again sometime, Ben." "What do you say?" " All right, so I've got him...?" " Tuesday." "Bye, you guys." " Take care." " Bye, Ben." "Did he just say "bye"?" "He said bye!" "You said bye!" "He said bye to me!" "Yes, he did!" "Suddenly I'm seeing him go off to college!" "We've gotta go." "We've got that cab downstairs." "See you later." "Look at this nice deep hole I dug." "Hey, Bert isn't this a nice hole here?" "Ben, this is the part where Ernie buries Bert in the sand and can't find him." "Now, I've looked ahead on the tape, and he does find him again." "But before that happens, there's some rough going for a while." "But I think we can handle it." "And there's just the alphabet, but we know that ends well, so..." "Here we go." "Bert?" "Bert?" "What happened to my friend Bert?" "He was here just a moment ago." "Oh, no!" "My old friend Bert is lost." "I'm so glad you're here." "Bye-bye, baby."

"Mrs. Colby." " What is it?" " Mr. Carrington is here." "Good." "Send him in." "I haven't finished with him yet." "Finished what, Mother?" "Steven." "I thought it was your father." "I just saw him out there." "Judging by the way he was attacking the elevator button and the way you look right now, I'd say the two of you" "Yes, we were having one of our little rows." "Or not so little." "Darling, I've been batted about by that man before." "And I've survived." "Nothing that he nor anyone else can do can bring me down." "Would you like a brandy?" "No, thank you." "What happened?" "Nothing to wory about, darling." "He lust bombarded me with empty threats." "He threatened you?" "Yes, in so many words." "Well, if he did, I wanna know about it." "Darling." "Darling, I can handle Blake Carrington." "And with you by my side, I feel vey safe." "Thank God at least one of my children is still with me." "Now, Steven, you have been working vey hard, and I want you to go home and have an early night." "Now, that's orders from your mother and boss." "How about a trade-off?" "I'll go home if the boss lets me drop her off first." "You've been putting in some pretty heavy hours yourself." "Oh, that's vey considerate of you, darling, but I'm leaving from here." "I have a heavy date." "Anyone I know, Mrs. Colby?" "Yes, you do, Mr. Carrington." " But don't py." " All right." "Well, have a good time with whomever." "I intend to." "Give Danny a big kiss from me and say hello to Claudia." " l will." " Bye, darling." " Yes, Mrs. Colby?" " Come in, please." "Brian, I want you to call my son, Adam." "Tell him that I'm working late at the office tonight but that I want to see him at my apartment 8:" "OO, and no excuses." " Is that clear?" " Vey clear, Mrs. Colby." "I think this presentation is just fine." " Good." " Two things:" "First, I want you to be at that board meeting with me when Alexis throws in the towel." "Oh, I'll be there." "And, second, and much more important, dinner tonight, you and me." "What do you say?" "All right." "I think you'll like the restaurant." "You were that sure I'd say yes?" "Well, let's say that I was hoping that you would say yes." "Do you understand?" "All press releases go through me." "I can assure you, I, Tracy Kendall, do speak for Denver-Carrington." "Oh, Miss Grant, I thought you'd left for the day." "It's lust that the phone rang just as I was leaving and I rushed back in here and..." "Well, my feet were killing me." "I'm so sory i used your desk." "Tracy, relax." "It's been a tough day." "Oh, there is no excuse, Miss Grant." "It's Kystle." "And no excuses needed." " Now, sit back down" " No." " l lust couldn't." " Yes, you can." "Tracy, as long as we work together, you can sit anywhere you'd like." "I mean, who knows, maybe tomorrow I'll wanna sit at your desk." "Deal?" "Deal." "Tracy, let's have lunch together." "Oh, I'd like that." "You pick the place and we'll get to know each other better." "I'd like to know more about what you've done." "Oh, you mean, my few years on Madison Avenue before coming to Denver?" "I didn't know you worked in New York." "How exciting." "It was exciting." "And kind of a hassle too." "And the competition, forget it." "I mean, you talk about a jungle..." "That's why I like it here." "I mean, Denver is no small town, but the people here, there's sort of a humanity about them." "They're so down to earth." "Just nice." "Well, I have to go. I have a date." "Let me guess who." "A certain Mr. Blake Carrington?" "How'd you know?" "Oh, I don't know." "There's just" "There's sort of a glow about you that comes out whenever he's around." "And I see it now." "Well, don't work too late, understand?" "Yes, I do." "Good night, boss." "Mr. Colby insists on seeing you." "Hello, Jeff." "All right, Brian, you can go." "Good night." "What's wrong?" "Oh, Jeff, whatever you're thinking..." "What does an intended victim think when he's face to face with the woman who tried to kill him?" "Oh, you can't believe that." "You know I'd never hurt you." " Jeff, you don't know the facts." " Oh, yes, I do." "Ty Switzerland." "You had collapsed." "You were half out of your mind." "I was tying to save you." "By dragging me out of the hospital and off to your private clinic in Gstaad?" "Finish the job you started?" "No." "To protect you." "To help you get well." "Well, the living don't need your kind of help." "If I'd have known then what you're capable of, even though the doctors said my uncle Cecil died of a heart attack, I would have ordered an autopsy." "Oh, my God, you can't believe that." "You know that I loved your uncle, _e55." "As a black widow." "A merger with you is a signed death warrant." "In marriage or business." "Look, Jeff." "I can understand how you feel, but it's not what you think." "I've got a meeting that I can just cannot get out of." "Just give me until tomorrow and I promise you that you'll have all the facts and then you'll agree with me that the merger with Blake should go through." " Trust me." " You're not going anywhere." "You're hurting me." "Consider yourself lucm." "You almost killed me." "Neither of us are leaving this office until you pay me back in full." "All of my interest in Colbyco that you stole by poisoning me." "That's impossible." "Eveybody's gone for the night." "There are papers to be drawn up" "Get Gerald Wilson on the phone." "Get him over here." "Those papers are gonna be drawn up tonight." "I told you that I've got a meeting." "Well, if you wanna get to that meeting, get Gerald Wilson over here now." "I'm not leaving this office until I have that paper signed and in my hand." "Did you hear me?" "All right." "Did you understand that?" "Well, I understood the appétít part." "Same thing he said to us the first time we were here." "On our first evening out together." "He said, "Good appetite to you and to the vey beautiful lady."" "I think he's flirting with you." "The same as he did the first time." "I think this is the same wine as that first time." "It is." "It is a wine that I personally discovered" " In France during the war." " In France during the war." "Same table." "Same wine." "Same waiter." "Shall I guess the entrée?" "Veal with lemon, capers and sorrel." "What a good memoy the beautiful lady has." " You know what else I remember?" " What?" "How nervous I was." "That first night out with my handsome boss." "How my hand began to shake as I lifted my wine glass." "Well, now I'd like to make a confession." "My hand was shaking that night as well." "Really?" "Well, you might have told me." "Oh, I was too busy being Blake Carrington for you." "I fell in love with Blake Carrington that night." "That night you moved out of the house and went to La Mirage, I thought you'd fallen out of love." "I felt a coldness surround me." "An infinite coldness." "And I knew then that no matter what my life was, without you," "I would never feel that warmth again." "I'd lost you." "Given the chance, I'd never let that happen again." "You didn't lose me, Blake." "I just had to find myself first." "And that's the truth." "Blake told Fallon and me not to talk to anyone about what we discovered up in Billings." "There was no proof of anything." "How can we talk about suspicion to people who-?" "People who what?" "Aren't personally involved?" "I am." "I'm your wife." "What affects you, affects me." "I'm sory, sweetheart." "From now on, we will share eveything." " Eveything?" " Yes, of course." "Even your love?" "I can feel it, Jeff." "Evey time you look at me, I know I'm not the only one you're seeing." "I see the woman I love." "Which?" "Wife number two or wife number one?" "Oh, come on, I can't just block Fallon out of my life." "Then you both have that in common." "Sweetheart, I can't have just loved one person in my life anymore than you have." "Now, Fallon's a part of my life and she always will be." "But she's not my wife." "You are." "And I love you." "Then I want you to prove it to me." "Love me now." "Please?" "I know you couldn't make love with me last night and I understand that, really." "But I want you now." "I can't." "Not now." " Why not?" " Because too much is happening." "I can't get what Alexis did out of my mind." "All right, but when?" "Could you tell me when?" "I don't know. I'm sory, Kirby." "Love means more to me than just performance." "I wouldn't drink that if I were you, Adam." "You're going to need all your wits about you." "Good evening, Mother." "I've been waiting for you and the firing squad." "Where is it?" "I don't need one." "No, you do just fine on your own." " To us." " Us?" "After what you've done to me, there's no more "us."" "From now on, Adam, you're on your own." "And I'll be damned if I'll protect you anymore." "You framed me, Adam." "You tricked me into signing those papers." "And if you think that I'm gonna let you get away with it, you vastly underestimate me." "I may be guilty of some things." "Underestimating you, never." "Sometimes I think I don't even know you." "Who are you?" "My mother's son." "I might fight for my power, but I would never, ever kill for it." "Put to the test?" "I wonder." "After I signed my name to those papers, what dingy little corner did you sneak away to to write "mercuric oxide compound" on them and change them into purchasing orders?" "Do you have any proof of that?" "Do I have any proof?" "You know perfectly well that I had no idea what you were doing to Jeff until the night before he collapsed." "Well." "If you've already told Father about this, and if he believed you, I doubt vey much whether we'd be having this little chat, you and I." "I haven't said a word to Blake." "The reason is that you're going to tell him the truth." "That I'm innocent." "I've already told him my stoy and I have no intention of changing it." "But I did learn one lesson from you, Mother." "People do finally get what they deserve." "Adam, you can't do this to me." "Considering who my mother is, it's no effort at all." "Thank you, Blake." "It was a wonderful evening." "Was?" "Aren't you going to ask me in for a brandy or something?" "It'd be a shame to end a wonderful evening like this." "It was a wonderful evening, Blake, but..." "But?" "I know. I understand." "There will be other nights." "And you are a working girl." "You do need your sleep." "Good night." "Good night." "Well, thanks to you, my holdings in Colbyco are back where they belong, right in my pocket." " That was quick." " All in a night's work." "And signed by a woman who shall remain nameless." "By the way, do you know how many bars and restaurants are in Denver?" " No." " Oh, neither do I." "But I showed up here tonight, hoping to talk with someone who speaks my language." "What about Kirby?" "_e55..." "We've each made choices." "Right or wrong, we have to live with them." "is it that easy for you?" "I keep telling myself it's over." "But no matter how hard I ty, I keep seeing us together." "And that moment in Montana where we both wanted each other and made love." "What about the other moments?" "Like separate bedrooms and sitting down to a meal together and we don't even look at each other." "Yeah, well, look at us now and tell me." "No matter how hard we fight it, tell me that we don't belong together." "We don't, Jeff." "I can't belong." "I need to be free." "You are free, Fallon." "You've been free your whole life." "Eveything you've ever wanted." "Anything you've ever wanted." "But there's more to life." "There's commitment." "There's living and growing together." "For you, and that's fine." "But I can't be reined in. I- l need somebody who doesn't need me." "Who's in control of their own life." "Where eveything is possible." "A young Blake Carrington." "He doesn't have a name, Jeff." "Maybe he doesn't even exist." "I lust don't think that going backnrards is the answer for either one of us." "Who's there?" "Adam?" "Adam, is that you?" "is anybody there?" "Oh, God, I missed you last night." "I almost called you at 4 in the morning." "Oh, I wish you had." "I couldn't sleep." "We don't need telephones now." "Don't move. I'll be right back." " Hello?" " Steven, thank God you're there." " Mother, what is it?" " l heard somethíng." "I think there's someone in my apartment." "Have you checked around?" "No, I'm too terrífíed to move." "He could have got in from anywhere." "He could have come from the balcony or up the back stairs." "Mother, you live in a vey secure building." "I'm sure no one could get in without being seen." "Steven, they did before." "Look, maybe I'm being irrational but I'm frightened." "I am really scared." "All right, lock your bedroom door and call the security guard." "I'm on my way." "is she all right?" "I don't know." "I'm sory, Claudia." "Oh, don't wory about me." "You better hury." " Good evening, sir." " Good evening, Gerard." " Mr. Carrington." " Yes." "A Farnsworth Dexter phoned a little while ago." "Farnsworth Dexter?" "He said he was Sam Dexter's son calling from Wyoming." "Oh, yes, of course." "Did he mention anything about his father's condition?" "Only that it was the same." "He wanted you to know that he would be here in Denver in a few days and would like to drop by to see you before the big meeting, as he said." "Fine, thank you." "Good night." "Good night, sir." "There's nothing out there." "Did you check that service elevator?" "Eveything's been locked up." "The security guard is right." "No one's here or has been." "Oh, thank God." "Darling, what would I do without you?" "Now, what are sons for?" "Or a filial phrase to that effect." "Perhaps you should ask Adam that." " Adam?" " Yes." "Of both my sons, you are the only one I can trust." "You don't think Adam would...?" "Come on, Mother, I don't know what went on between you that sent him to work for Dad." " But he's not your enemy." " Are you sure?" "I really think that somebody was here." "And Adam does have a key." "No one entered the lobby or took the elevators." "No one was here." "And as for Adam, he may be tough to get along with, but you're the lady who gave birth to him." "He's your son." "Ty to get some sleep." "You'll feel better in the morning." "Good night, darling." "Where did you get this?" "From the old woman who said she was my grandmother." "The initials." ""A.A.C."" "What else-?" "What else did she say?" "She told me that my real name..." "Was Adam Alexander Carrington." "Operator." "I want Information in Billings, Montana, please." "Hello, Information?" "Yes, I'd like a listing for a Dr. Edwards, please." "No, no, I don't know his first name." "It's just Dr. Edwards." "Operator, please, hury up." "It's urgent that I find him." " Oh, good morning, Miss Grant." " Good morning." " Could you see that these get mailed?" " Sure thing." "Kystle." " What is it, Mark?" " l have to talk with you." "If it's about what happened the other night- lt is about what happened the other night." "I was drunk and I came on like an idiot." "I'm sory." "Mark, I'm not angy with you." "You did a stupid thing, but you also did something that I'll never forget." "You saved my life." "Now, what happened the other night, I don't ever want to have happen again." "Now, there can be nothing between us but friendship." "is that clear?" "Yeah, it's clear, Kystle." "Even to me." "You don't have to paint a picture." "That's right." "I want you to file a flight plan for Billings, Montana." "I'm leaving for the airport as soon as my chauffeur brings the car." "So have the plane ready to leave." "Morning." "Mark." "I told you that I didn't like unannounced visitors of any kind." "Especially your kind." "I'm gonna have the doorman throw you out." "I told him I was working for you." "As your bodyguard." "Really?" "Well." "That doesn't come as any surprise." "I knew that sooner or later, you'd find the offer too tempting to resist." "The offer?" "Or you?" "The lob is yours, Mark." "But I am way beyond your reach." "As, obviously, is Kystle." "That is why you're here, isn't it?" "What are you talking about?" "You know perfectly well what I'm talking about." "All right, your quarters are downstairs." "And you'll be on call 24 hours a day, whenever and wherever I need you." "When can you start?" "About a week." "But it's gonna cost you, Alexis." "Oh, Mark, I never discuss money matters with my employees." "Call Mr. Wade at Colbyco and I'm sure that he can come up with an acceptable figure." "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a few phone calls to make." "Goodbye, Mark." "Can I get you anything else, sir?" "No, thank you, Ellen." "Just some more coffee, please." " Mr. Carrington." " Yes?" "Mr. Dexter's here to see you, sir." "Oh, good." "Show him in, please, Gerard." "Yes, sir." "Mr. Dexter, sir." "Morning." "Good morning. I'm Dex Dexter." "Sit down, won't you?" " Care for some breakfast?" " Oh, I've already eaten." "But thank you." "I'll just have some coffee." "You've got a really great house." " It's beautiful." " Thank you vey much." "As I said in my message, I flew in from Wyoming early because I wanted to meet with you before the board meeting." "I'm glad you did." "As you undoubtedly know, your father and I have been friends for a lot of years." "He's a good man, and a decent one too." "I'm so sory to hear about that heart attack he had." "Well, it's gonna be a long and slow recovey, I'm afraid." "So I brought you this." "It's my father's power of attorney." "I'll be representing him in all of his business interests." "including tomorrow's Denver-Carrington board meeting." "Speaking of which, there's a rumour going around that the merger with Colbyco might be called off." "It's no rumour, I'm pleased to say." "I wonder if the pleasure is not all yours." "What does that mean?" "Meaning your difficulties with Alexis Colby, your ex-wife." "I trust they have no influence on your business sense." "That merger's being called off because it's the right move for Denver-Carrington." "It has nothing to do with my personal life." "Which, quite frankly, has nothing to do with you." "Oh, but it does." "As a member of your board of directors, I feel the merger to be of benefit for both companies regardless of your personal difficulties." "Now, I know my company, young man" "My name is Dex." "Just as yours is Blake." "There may be age between us, not experience or knowledge." "I've checked you out." "Rhodes scholar." "Graduated summa cum laude from the School of Mines." "However, it might interest you to know that this is not a school." "That diplomas are kept in file drawers." "Out of the way." "Where you tried to place my father." "What the devil are you talking about?" "Sam Dexter was a valued associate of mine." "The way I saw it, you could bend him as you wished." "Well, don't confuse the father with the son." "I rarely bend." "And I never break." "I'll see you at the meeting, Blake." "And thank you for the coffee." "It's late, Mrs. Colby." "I've had a vey busy day with patients." "And I have been waiting for you all day, doctor." " l've been through all this before." " Not with me, you haven't." "No, but with the boy's father." "After Adam went to Denver, Mr. Carrington had the same doubts." "You could have asked him instead of flying all the way to Billings." "Dr. Edwards, what I do or do not discuss with my ex-husband is no concern of yours." "I have my doubts about Adam's claim." "I was there when Kate Torrance brought the baby back from Denver, on the same day Adam Carrington was kidnapped." "But that doesn't prove a thing." "That child didn't then or ever bear the slightest resemblance to either of his supposed parents." "I am talking about blood ties, not resemblance." "No genuine son of mine could ever betray me so viciously." "Betray you?" "Yes, and I intend to disown him and expose him for the fraud that he really is." "I know him to be capable of violent flashes of temper, but surely a mother could forgive that." "Attempted murder cannot be forgiven." "Whatever he's done, however it looks, have you ever thought there may be an explanation for his actions?" "It was the drugs he took." "Those damned drugs." "Drugs?" "Adam was a loner here." "He never fit in." "And never knew why." "Only that there was something that separated him from those around him." "When there was no one to turn to, he took to so-called mind-expanding drugs." "They twist, destroy, and sometimes kill." "Oh, my God." "You know, I've seen Adam sit in that chair weeping hysterically one minute, and laughing out of control another." "Terrified of a private world where no one could reach him." "Yes, but he got out of it." "Other people can." "Oh, yeah, he survived." "But who knows what the residual effects are?" "What residual effects?" "Distorted judgement." "Paranoia." "Episodes in which he might do things that in his responsible mind, he'd never dream of doing." "Responsible mind." "If he were physically disabled, would you turn your back on him?" "No." "In a tragic way, he is, you know." "Don't destroy him, Mrs. Colby." "Help him." "Good morning, Blake." "Good morning." " Thought I'd get here early." " So I see." "Maybe it's because I never like being late for poker games." "Oh, is that what you think this is?" "Well, your ex-wife- l mean, I've never met the lady, but I hear she deals in vey high cards." "Then you should find this meeting vey instructive." "Good morning, Mrs. Colby." "Mr. Carrington's in the boardroom waiting." "Down the hall and to your left." "I know where it is, Marcia." "Kystle." "The typing pool is on the first floor, are you lost?" "I always know where l belong, Alexis." "But that's the ladies' room." "Are you lost?" "I heard you'd been re-hired." "But secretaries are neither wanted nor needed at this meeting."

"I can't wait to read your first attempt at literacy." "That now brings us to new business on the agenda." "In my opinion, there are" "Good morning, gentlemen." "Nick." "We waited for you as long as we could, Alexis." "And we opened the meeting." "Now, it's my understanding that you have a statement to make regarding the proposed merger between Colbyco and Denver-Carrington." "Now, if there's no obiection from any of you gentlemen, I'd like to get on with that statement." "You're absolutely right." "As much as I'd like to put this off, I'm afraid that we must all face the truth." "As I have." "This is the sad evidence, gentlemen, that even I could make a mistake." "Although I originally urged this board to vote for a merger, these documents have proven to me that, as head of Colbyco, I cannot, in all conscience, recommend such an action." " Is this some kind of-?" " The nerve." " How dare she-?" " Gentlemen, please." "This is painful, I know, but I must continue." "At one time, I envisioned both companies as oil giants." "Which, bonded together, would make histoy." "Unfortunately, subsequent research has proven that only Colbyco is a giant." "Denver-Carrington, by comparison, a mere dwarf." "A dwarf whose management has shown no potential for creative gromh." "My late husband, Cecil Colby, built an empire." "The stability and gromh of which he entrusted to me." "I cannot betray his trust by allowing Colbyco to cary the burden of Denver-Carrington." "I am therefore cancelling all plans for this merger as of today." "I will entertain a motion to adjourn." " So moved." " l second." "All in favour?" "All opposed?" "We're adjourned." "It may not be bitter wine, but I'll be damned if it has a sweet taste to it." " You won, Blake." " l take little joy in that." "Knowing that Alexis is walking around free after what she did to you." "Oh, don't wory." "She's not finished paying." "Not yet." "Congratulations." "That was one of the best performances I've ever seen." "Not now, Kystle." "I'm not in the mood for your gloating." "Gloating?" "I only commented on what I saw." "On what you thought you saw." "Tough morning?" "You cost me a great deal today, Adam." "Normally, I'd make you pay dearly for that." "But?" "You're my son." "And whatever you do, I'll always feel that bond between us." "You said" "That day you walked out on me, that I didn't love you." "You're wrong." "Maybe when you've suffered enough, paid enough, you'll understand that love has many forms." "Many pains." "And sacrifice is one of them." "Oh, God." "Don't bother to announce me." "We're old friends and we both love surprises." "This is Colbyco, Mr. Dexter." "That's what it says on the building." "My business with Denver-Carrington is terminated." "So, what are you doing here?" "Unfinished business." "Well, is that the start or the finish of your business?" "That depends on you." "I admired your style at the meeting." "I liked it even better just now." "Oh, why should that matter to me?" "Well, now that we know we have something in common, we can do business together." "I don't like the word "common," Mr. Dexter." "Oh, Dex." "I was saddled with my grandfather's first name, Farnsworth." "I chose not to use it." "And I choose with whom I do business." " You spoke of an empire." " That's right." " Well, I'm forming one." " Are you?" "How impressive." "And not with Blake Carrington." " You interested?" " Maybe." "Tar sands." "Canada." "Only four sites near the Athabasca River." "There's believed to be more oil locked in those sands than there is under all of Saudi Arabia." "Believed by whom?" "By me." "And you're never wrong?" "Hardly ever." "You know, extracting that oil can be a vey expensive process." "Well, Alexis Colby has never turned anything down because it was expensive." "But now add to that Colbyco's clout, my muscle." "Together we'll reap a profit beyond your imagination." "I might be interested." "Let's say, 80-20." "I was willing to give you 40 percent." "You underestimate your value, ma'am." "And you overestimate your appeal." "I think we're pretty evenly matched." "Let's say, 50-50." "Fine." "If I were interested." " But you're not?" " No, I'm not." "That's your loss." "I guess you're not the vey smart woman I thought that you were." "But you're a fantastic woman to kiss." "Fantastic."

"You might want to put that out, sir." " Put it out." "Put the cigar out." " I told him." "We got a fuel leak, trying to put your cleat in." " Your arrow cleat." " Her idea." " To put your stamp on it." " Damned if I didn't cut the fuel line." "I wanted to take her out tonight." "I know you did, sir, and I'm sorry as hell." "I'm gonna work all night and I'll have it ready for sunup, okay?" "All right, I want to re-ballast her." "Put her a bit by the stern."

"I want you to do something for me." "Look at this." "I did this myself." "You're gonna love it." "This is what I want for a figurehead." "Robin Hood." "What do you think?" "I like it because it puts a twist on my name." "Freccia is Italian for "arrow" so you see the thing?" "To personalize the boat." "Robin Hood, robbing from the rich, but who wants to rob from the poor?" "Let's see." "Bill of sale." "We got certificate of title." "1400 hours on the engine." "My people will contact you." "Here's what we're thinking" "Easy!" "Wait, wait, wait!" "Hold on!" "Are you alone?" "Are you alone?" "Are you alone?" " What the fuck are you doing here?" " I left my copy of the plans." "Hey, hold on." "Call Freccia." "Call Freccia." "You said the joint was burnt." "I don't understand." " I didn't want" " To what?" "I'm looking out for you two." "He won't answer." "What does she see in you?" "You must be hung like man-of-war." "You want to play the dozens?" "Here we go." "There was an error at the hospital." "You died at birth." "Cat got your tongue?" "Don't you want to play?" "Joe, leave him." "You going somewhere?" "What are you, the social service lady?" " Going somewhere?" " Taking the baby back?" "You can't run." "You gotta do the job." "You know that you got to." "You know you do." "Can you shoot me and walk away?" "They'll hunt you down." " Shoot him." " I can't go down there with nothing!" "Well that's the thing." " What'll you do?" " Out!" "And what?" "You owe them money." "Think you can just sail away?" " They'll never let you walk away." " Get out!" "What are we gonna do?" "That's what everybody wants to know." "How do we get the gold home?" "What's the difference?" "They'll never trust you." "They need me to do the job." "How can they trust you not to walk over?" " The kid came back?" " Yeah." " All right." "Let's start again." " Why'd the kid come back?" "Listen." "He don't come back, you're on some island." " I got an idea." " You should've left him on the road." "You shouldn't have left him with the plans!" "What plans?" "He forgot his cheat sheet." "That's why he came back." "He didn't forget it, because I got it right here!" "What, am I gonna leave my papers in the hands of some fucking lame?" " That's why he came back." " He came for me." "What?" "He came back to make sure I was okay." " He came back for you?" " That's right." "I know how to get the gold." " Suit up." " Sure you want to do that?" " She's the go-getter." " Tell me what you want me to go get." "I need you to suit up." "Is that all right?" "You say it, it's right." "All right." " We'll put the job off for a month." " For a month?" "I need dates for next month's shipment and the name of a freight forwarder." "Freight forwarder and a customs broker." " Good." " Where are you going with this?" "You just listen." "We're gonna stand this thing on its head." "Are you fucking with me?" "Or are you done fucking with me?" "I've financialized the problem, and you're more trouble than you're worth." "The girl says you'll do it." "You said that before." "Why now?" "What is it, all of a sudden?" "Everybody needs money." "That's why they call it "money."" "Let me add this sweetener." "Do the fucking job, or I'll turn you over." "I'll drop a Roosevelt dime on you." "Finita la Commedia." "Is that strict, you fucking vonce?" "Sorry to use such language in front of a woman were it not for who, I'd waste your fucking ass." "If you say you'll do the job, do it." "No more charades." "Save the bold moves for the brilliant players." " Sorry for the language." " How generous." "And fuck you too!" "Save the bullshit." "He wants the job." "Is that a question?" "You came begging to me, doxy." "I didn't come to you." "He'll do the job next month." "He needs a month." " Is that the thing?" " Is that what I just told you?" " Ain't you a piece of work." " I came from China in a matchbox." "Thank you." "Fill up her drink, she seems to enjoy it." "What do you think?" " He's scared." " He's never scared." " He's getting old." " She said that?" "He's broke, he's tired." "She says he wants to play ball." "Why should we believe her?" "Why did he send her?" " She came to me." " To you?" " He put her up to it." " She came to me on her own." "Yeah, but as rational men, don't we have to doubt her?" "She thinks he's weak." "She's scared, she's sincere." "Let me put a question to you:" "If you had the job, how would you test her sincerity?" "Okay, we're all on one team, all arrayed against a common enemy?" "Thanks for coming." "I'm going to bed." " I'll see you back." " I'm all right." " You're all right now." " Am I?" "You just need somebody to lean on." " Adrenaline gives you the shakes." " I'm okay." "I'm just saying, adrenaline gives people the shakes." "Some mistake it for cowardice." "You could pray." "I'm not a religious man." " There's nothing wrong with prayer." " Think so?" "I knew this trooper who always carried a Bible next to his heart." " It stopped a bullet." " No shit?" "Hand to God, it stopped a bullet." "Would've ruined his heart." "Had he had another Bible in front of his face, he'd be alive today." " What time you got?" "5:18." "Make the call." "Hello?" "I got one of your rental trucks." "The engine quit on me." " Nobody lives forever." " Frank Sinatra gave it a shot." "You'll do." "Good morning." "It's the acid." "It isn't the acid, it's the asphalt." "It's making me sick." "How can they work in that all day long?" " Got any Rolaids?" " Want an Alka Seltzer?" " Doctor said not to drink." " You shouldn't then." "Same old story everywhere you go." "You know..." "Oh, no." " Do I know you?" " No." "Please, please." " What?" " Don't fire me." "Please." " What do you mean?" " Don't fire me." "I saw you in the bar." "You're with the FAA." "Miss Croft, you're drinking on the job." "You're done." "I got two kids at home." "Please, mister." "Give me your keys." "Mister, I need a break." "I'm begging you." "I swear to you on my life that I will never take another drink." "Don't fire me." "Did you ever ask anybody for a break?" "Do you have any kids?" "Oh, Christ." "In about three minutes, I'll be conducting a security check." "I'll be passing through your station." "I will be, quote, armed." "I will have a tool kit in which is hidden three dangerous items." "It's a test of the personnel under you." "If you tip them off, I'll have your job." "I wouldn't." "Go back to your station." " I will." " Give me your keys." "Your alcohol." " You will go into the program." " I will." "Thank you!" "That's it." " Is Betty Croft here?" " Is what?" " Your supervisor." " She went for coffee." "It's that time of day, isn't it?" "Can I leave my tools for a minute?" "That's no problem." " What happened to Betty Croft?" " I think she's sick." "I don't feel so good myself." "Give me one of these, will you?" "And a large coffee." "Leave some room for milk." "Here you go." "Hold, hold, hold." " Here's your change." " Thank you." "What's happening?" "What's happening is stay put." "Put her in park." "Don't flash your brake lights." " There we go." " Going to see the elephant." " Up early or up late?" " Not at all, until I get this in me." "What's with that-?" "What's with your supervisor?" " What, does she owe you money?" " I wish she did." "She's got some stomach thing." "Least little thing sets her off." "I had an aunt like that once." "She wasn't really my aunt." "We just called her that." "She had a florist shop." "Funny thing was, she was allergic." "We used to tease her about that."

"Outside the airport." "industrial and 207." "I'm an attorney!" "Can I have your name?" "I'm gonna have your job!" " The truck's almost here." " Good." "You score?" " Look at that." " Oh, my, oh, my." "Go sell chocolate, you Heidi motherfuckers." "We got your gold!" "Hey, let me have that." "Yeah!" "Two minutes before the setup's over!" "Tow truck will be here." "Let's go!" " When that cop comes to..." " That's gotta be what it's gonna be." " Can you get through a roadblock?" " Whatever." "It's all of a piece." "You're burnt." "You're burnt!" "We're all going together." "I do not see the percentage." "You don't have to, baby." "You're burnt." "You're fucking burnt, old man!" " I go with the gold." " With the gold?" "What are you telling your beads?" "Look, man, you tell me." "What are they going to look harder at?" "Tell me!" "You, here with us, or you in an empty car?" "You tell me." "You follow us through the roadblock." "Joe, you're burned." "When that cop comes through, they'll put him at the roadblock." "It's the wise thing." "You go in the van with the gold." "It'll be all right." " I'll meet you." " Okay." " Let's go, guys." "Come on!" " Let's move!" "Wrap it up!" "Let's go!" "Bobby." "There you go, paI." "Come on, let's go!" "You heard what the man said." "Let's go!" "Move!" " You gotta move." "Get in the car." "Go!" " Okay." "Joe!" "I'll see you at the meet." "See you at the meet!" " Joe!" " What?" "Come on, keep it together, boy!" "It's not over yet!" "Let's go." "Fran!" " Ikeys." " See you at the meet." "Hey, Joe, listen." " It's the smart thing." "It is." " Yeah, all right." " My God!" " What?" "She missed the fucking tow truck." "He'll meet us there." " Don't smoke." " Makes me look calm." "What kind of people try to look calm?" "Get away from the van!" "Put your hands on your head and walk towards me." "You, the man." "IkneeI on the grass!" "Come on!" " Lady, stop there!" " IkneeI!" " Open the van." "Open it!" " It's unlocked." "Don't look at me, look at the grass!" " What's that?" " An engine." " For what?" " A fucking tractor." "I don't know." "Okay." " How long have you been here?" " What's wrong?" "How long?" "Since 4:00 a. m., waiting for the fucking tow truck." " What's the problem?" " There was a robbery." "Come on, let's go!" "Move the truck through!" "Come on!" "You were good with the cops." "Oh, yeah, I'm the long lost motherfucker." "You think good on your feet." " You think good off your feet too." " Well, aren't you sweet." " What do you say we stop for a drink?" " Let's get to the meet." "Yeah, that's difficult." "Want me to tell you why?" "There is no meet." " Joe wouldn't like that." " We left Joe." "There is no meet, you know that." "Your guy got his picture on a stamp." "He got old." "Let's cut the jiving." "What kind of man sends his wife to me?" "To distract me?" "Surprise!" "I was taken in." "How about that?" "What a fool I am." "Would I do that to you?" "Would I do that to you?" "And who liked it?" "For old-time's sake, why don't we cut the nonsense and say what it is?" "I need a drink." "Did he think he was going home with the gold?" "Only one who didn't know was him." "He needed someone to draw it for him." "And you went with it, all the way." "Was you joking?" "Answer me, because I'll tell you what we could do with that gold." "Where are you going?" " Are you okay?" " Where are you going?" "I'm gonna check on the gold." "Leave it!" "Walk away from it!" " Leave it!" " Walk away?" "What are you, crazy?" "The truck's clean, for chrissake." "Think I'm gonna walk away from this-?" "How you doing?" "Hey, you know." "Yeah, here you go." "What is it?" "What the hell do you care?" "Well, that's true too." " Hell of a thing!" " It's a hell of a thing!" "My shipment was supposed to be in Philly by 9 yesterday." " Right." " Called me back from vacation!" "They said, "Your load is still on the ground." "It never left Boston."" " We had a robbery." " No kidding!" " You had a robbery?" "Anybody hurt?" " Couple pilots shaken up a little." "You had a robbery, and you impound the plane?" " What did they take?" " Some load from Switzerland." " Didn't they offer the next flight?" " What?" "Didn't they offer their next flight to Philly?" "Oh, yeah." "Their next flight is 8 a. m. tomorrow." "It has to be in Philly yesterday." "I gotta drive it there myself." "If I don't have that load in Philly by dawn, there's my job!" "Here it is." "Hell of a thing." "Hell of a thing." " Come to dinner tonight." " We'll have to see." "You always say that." "It means you won't." "Well, it's possible." "It's possible that my business..." " I might have to travel." " Why can't you do business here?" "I wish I could, baby." "The fact is I have to leave this morning." " This morning?" " That's when my plane leaves." "Times change." "In my day, kids had to walk all the way to school." " Yes, but the streets were safer." " Is that so?" " You take care of yourself, kid." " Bye, Uncle Donny." " Nice day for the race." " What race?" "The human race." "Ikids growing up, so on." "Hope of the future." "Get in the fucking car." " Where's the gold?" " I'm reluctant to tell you." "When we put it to you, you'll tell us the gross national product of Bolivia!" "You'll tell us the area code of Belgium!" "It's all I know." "This is all you know." "This is all you know!" "And we got you going to Saint Croix!" "How do you pick up your share?" "Where's the gold?" "Where's the meet?" "What are you gonna do, hurt me?" "Well, no." "Actually, no." "I'm not gonna hurt you." "But tell a guy." "I'm full of admiration." "What was the deal?" "The deal was, we get away with the gold." "Cute, huh?" "That's charming." "Then what?" " We slip away." " You slip away?" "And we go to the meet, and we find pig iron?" "Is that it?" "Joe figured you weren't never going to the meet." "He did?" "If your guy doesn't get it in his head to fly off we're all on the patio right now, having a margarita!" "Where's the gold?" "You understand my reluctance to tell you." "Take him out and show him something." "Don't hurt him." "You got anything to say about this?" "Fran?" "Has she called in?" "She won't call until she ditches the guy." "How is she gonna ditch him?" "She could talk her way out of a sunburn." "That's right." "Yeah?" "Joe." "Yeah, how you doing?" "Just checking in." "Fine, finest." "Pristine." "Yeah, I know." "I saw the truck drive through too." "Isn't it?" " See you at the meet." " Okay." "Mr. Bergman, please." "Hold on." "So where's the gold?" "You're shitting me." "Is that all right?" "Okay." "Okay." "How you doing?" "We're all packed up." "How'd you ditch that guy?" " Leave him at the altar?" " Yeah, at the altar." "That's my girl." "What happened to you?" "Yeah, yeah." "There was a change in plans, you couldn't call to tell me?" " Get him off the boat." " Off the boat!" "Get off the boat!" "Yeah, that's right." "Where's your friend?" "Where's your friend?" "You all alone?" "No." "You ain't alone." "It ain't good to be alone." "Dump it." "Go find his friend." " I didn't have a choice." " Let my wife go!" "Mind if I say something personal?" "Your wife's a whore." "You two fucked this plan into a cocked hat." " After all we went through together!" " Fuck you!" " I was gonna make you rich." " Is that so?" "I was gonna make you rich, you motherfucker." "But you had to complicate the last bit." "You piece of shit!" "Yeah?" "Who's kneeling on the dock?" " He ain't there." " All right." "Okay." "You want to wrap it up?" "Want to stand around and guess my real name?" " What is your name?" " Rumpelstiltskin!" " What was it before?" " Watch your mouth!" " Leave him the fuck alone!" " Get back!" "Get her out of here!" "You had to go out on a limb, didn't you?" " Didn't you?" " Let her go." "I'll give up the gold." "Yeah, basically, we had in mind a different deal." "I hear if you're flexible, it keeps you young." "I'll give up the gold." "Me and the girl leave on the boat." " What if the gold's on the boat?" " I gave up the gold." "I had to." " You what?" " I had to!" "I hate to break your rice bowl, but your wife made a deal." "We get the gold, we let you live." "What do you think?" " Let me walk away?" " That's right." " Me and the girl?" " Well, not quite." "I'm sorry, baby." "Let's get this boat out of here!" "She's got a commercial mind." " Hold on a second here!" " You're bust, paI." "You're bust." " You got broke." "Go cry a little." " You fortunate fucker." "She don't step up, you stay here like a bit of forever." "This way, you walk away." "Take the gold!" "Just leave me the boat!" "Don't make me lose my respect for you." "Get the gold off." "Give him some money!" "Leave him some money!" "Don't let him go down there with nothing." "Give him some money!" "Yeah, that's right." "We don't want to send you out broke." "Give me a shiv." "Yeah." "Buy yourself something nice." "Pay you with gold." "How you doing?" "You holding up?" " The broad sold me out." " How about that?" "Show them a pretty face a diamond necklace, and they're gone like morning mist." "Find it!" "Where's the gold?" "Hurt him a little." " Get him up." " You son of a bitch!" " You're just too hip to be happy." " Is that so?" "You had to go and hit me." "You all done?" "Because I got bills to pay." "Where's the gold?" " Give me a cigarette." " Bad for you." "Well, nobody lives forever." "But you're spending the rest of your life with me." "Right now!" " Where's the fucking gold?" " Ikiss my Yankee ass!" "Okay." "I hate to do anything as dramatic as count to three." "But one two..." "Hey!" "Damn it!" "What the fuck?" "Bobby!" "Bobby!" " Coming at you!" " No shooting!" "Fuck!" "Stop!" "Put the fucking guns down!" "Are you listening to me?" "No!" "Stop!" "We're talking!" "Let's just talk!" "Stop!" "Just" "Fuck, no!" " Bobby!" " Come on, sit down!" "Sit down!" "No guns!" "No!" "I'm ready." "Let's get the fuck out of here." "How about that?" "How about that?" "How about that?" "Don't you want to hear my last words?" "I just did." "You put milk in, it lessens the chance of stomach distress." "I can't be worrying about every little thing." " How are you mending?" " Doing my best here." "You?" "It's too bad about Pinky." "What?" " Pinky." "Shame." " Ain't that so?" "He always made me laugh." " What more can you ask of anyone?" " Nothing." "You go to that plastic surgeon, don't let him put you under." "I knew a cat, went to get his face fixed." "Woke up, and the sucker gave him a pair of tits." "That's a bad beat." "He landed back inside and never wanted for cigarettes." "Send your cut there?" "Wire it there." "When you get where you're going." "That I will, paI." "I hear it's nice down there in the sun." "Is that where I'm going?" "Wherever it is, brother don't come back." "There." " Hey, baby." " Hey." " I'm sorry." " It's okay." "Who was that?" "Some guy, wanted a tip on a fight." "Did you?" "I worked my whole life." "Why give him the benefit of all that knowledge?" "Drive." "Nothing like a good plan, Joe." "Yeah, I wouldn't tie my shoes without a backup plan." "Shame about Pinky." "It went bad, that last bit, didn't it?" " Yes, it did." " Then that's just the price." "That's right." "That's part of it." " Didn't you do great, though?" " Did I?" " You hotwalked that dude all day." " I went to a good school." " What's the rest of it?" " I don't get you." " We were talking about Pinky." " Yeah?" "I said, "That's just the price," and you said, "That's part of it."" "What's the rest of it?" "Let me see your hands." "That's right, real still." "Yeah, well..." "Get over there." "Ikeep walking." "Well, you sent me to him." "You shouldn't have sent me to him." " You can't think of everything." " Where's the gold?" "It's right there." "Why doesn't he shoot me?" "That's the deal." " He isn't gonna shoot me?" " No." "Then he shouldn't point a gun at me." "It's insincere." "Let's go." "How you doing?" "Tired." " You'll be all right." " You think so?" "You always are." "Cute plan, though." "Cute as a Chinese baby."

"Previously on Beauty the Beast..." "Catherine, in all those years that I was watching over you, all I ever wanted was to meet you." "Vincent, you're not a monster." "You saved my life." "Dad!" "Catherine's blood contained no common identifiers with your father." "I'm not quite following." "There was no match between Catherine and your father." "I was part of a highly classified unit of super soldiers." "These people from Muirfield, they will not stop until" " they've buried their mess." " Vincent, Muirfield is out there hunting you." "Vincent!" "Don't shoot!" "She's my daughter." "♪ I had a way then" "♪ Losing it all on my own" "♪ I had a heart then" "♪ But the queen has been overthrown ♪" "♪ And I'm not sleeping now" "♪ The dark is too hard to beat" "♪ And I'm not keeping now, now, now ♪" "♪ The strength I need to push me ♪" "♪ You show the lights that stop me... ♪" "Come on." "Come on, damn it, I need you alive." "Forbes." "JT?" "Oh." "Hey, Cat." "How's it going, at 5:00 a.m.?" "Just checking in to see if you have any leads on Vincent." "You mean since you asked me eight hours ago?" "It wasn't eight hours, it was... nine." "Cat, this has been going on for almost three months." "Maybe you ought to-- I don't know-- take a little break maybe." "Anyway, anything?" "Okay, well, I'm still hacked in to the city's surveillance cameras, scanning social media sites, cross-checking his photo with facial recognition, but so far, nada." "Vincent is out there somewhere;" "I know it, I feel it." "Muirfield could've easily just killed him, but they didn't." "They captured him, which means that they need him for something." "Which means we're the only ones who can save him from all the awful things that they've done to him." "Come on, Cat, don't you think I know that?" "I care about him, too!" "I mean, I've been trying to save Vincent for, what, ten years?" "I owe him." "But I love him." "And I don't care if it makes sense to you or to anybody else, I am not gonna stop until I find him." "And I don't care if it makes sense to you" "I'm sorry." "No, it's okay, I understand." "It's just..." "I'll be honest, I'm not just worried about him," "I'm worried about you, too." "I mean, you've got Vincent, all the craziness at the precinct, your dad passing away." "It's been what, like, a month since the funeral?" "Okay, don't worry about me." "Okay?" "Just... don't stop looking for Vincent." "Please." "I don't know if you've noticed, which you probably haven't 'cause you've been mostly AWOL around here lately-- not that I'm complaining..." "I'm sorry." "The point is, the workload's doubled ever since the D.A. overturned Joe's cases." "And although I'm used to covering for you-- again, not like I mind..." "No, you should." "It's just..." "Look, I know how much you love the guy, but I think I have the right to know how much longer this is gonna go on." "Until I find him, Tess, okay?" "Right, but what if you can't?" "Look, I'm sorry." "I'm your friend, I'm allowed to blunt." "It's one of the perks." "Look, I don't want to be the bad guy here, I don't, but you know as well as I do that the odds of finding a missing person after..." "You sound like JT." "You guys ganging up on me?" "I'm not giving up until I find him, Tess." "That's funny." "That's exactly what Joe said about finding his brother's killer:" ""I'm not giving up."" "It was all he cared about, but it kept him from focusing on all the other cases, and that's what's caused this mess and cost him his job." "And me my boyfriend." "Just make sure you know what it's costing you, Cat, okay?" "Make sure it's worth it." "I know what it's costing me, Tess, believe me." "Sometimes when I'm alone, and it's late and it's quiet," "I just..." "I just want to cry." "For Vincent, for my Dad." "But I can't." "I won't let myself, not until I find Vincent." "I have to stay strong." "It's a dangerous game, putting yourself on hold like that." "It's gonna catch up with you sooner or later." "I know." "Catherine!" "Speaking of beasts." "Catherine, I need to talk to you." "In private." "This better be good." "Because I don't care if the D.A. put you in charge," "I don't have to listen to you." "I know, but..." "Maybe I haven't been around much lately, but you know what I'm doing, and I don't expect any flak, because if I hadn't saved your life, you wouldn't even be here." "And you know how grateful I am." "And, honestly, when you couldn't help me find Vincent, which was the only reason" "I saved your sorry ass in the first place," "I should've just left well enough alone when your beast side died, you know what I mean?" "No offense." "None taken." "And, for the record..." "Catherine, JT found Vincent." "He couldn't get in touch with you, so he sent it to me." "He sent what to you?" "♪ Beauty and the Beast 2x01 ♪ Who Am I?" "Original Air Date on October 7, 2012" "== sync, corrected by elderman == @elder_man" "Are you sure it's Vincent?" "Facial recognition's still working on it." "Wait, what?" "You said it was him when you called." "No, I said it might be him." "Well, if you weren't sure, then why did you send it over?" "I'm sorry, do we even like you?" "Come on, come on." "Well, you should test the whole shot." "Right." "How long ago did you find this?" "Just before I sent it to you guys." "What?" "What kind of software are you using?" "There's nothing wrong with my software." "Then why isn't it finding a match?" "I don't know." "Maybe 'cause it's not him." "Let me try something." "Don't touch my stuff." "There a reason why you want it to be Vincent so badly?" "I'm just saying, last time, it was 'cause you wanted to kill him so you could save yourself." "What do I have to do to prove I'm not a beast anymore?" "Maybe donate your body to science?" "Catherine?" "What are you doing?" "Where are you going?" "Going to save Vincent, or whoever that is." "Come on, come on!" "Out of the way!" "Tess, I'm heading to Brooklyn Shipyards, pier 48." "I might need some backup." "What's your..." "Moron!" "...ETA?" "Cat, is that you?" "Heather?" "You know, I'd like to think that you're actually returning my phone call finally," "Heather, I am..." "I am so sorry." "Um, just out of curiosity, when was the last time you were home?" "I-I really don't have time to explain right now." "Can I call you back?" "Cat, that's the problem." "You never have time anymore." "Ever since the funeral, you've been, like, impossible to get ahold of, and I'm worried about you." "Are you, like, undercover or something?" "Or something." "Do you not see the flashing light?" "!" "Cat, listen, I need to make sure that you're coming tonight, because I cannot do this speech without you." "What speech?" "At the tribute Dad's law firm is throwing him." "They're making him a name partner, remember?" "Wait, that's-that's tonight?" "Cat, you promised that you would be there." "I know that you're busy and all, but this is for Dad." "This matters." "Don't worry, I'll be there, okay?" "Good." "Um..." "And then maybe we can talk afterwards." "We-we really need to talk." "It's about dad." "You know, you should be flattered." "I wouldn't risk coming out in the open for just anybody." "But seeing as how many years I've been looking for you I just wanted to make sure it really was you." "Look at me." "Look at me." "You do know who I am, right?" "Yeah." "You're somebody I want to kill." "Why?" "Just because I'm the one who turned you into a beast?" "Pretty good reason, don't you think?" "I suppose if I was in your shoes, I'd think the same." "But in fairness, back when I first took over Muirfield from my dad," "I was just a kid, a genetic scientist looking for a job." "Government knocked on my door, wallet in hand, asked me if I could build them a super soldier." "And here I am." "And here you are." "An experiment gone awry, but nonetheless, a potentially profitable one on the open market." "You're a valuable weapon, Mr. Keller, at least... now that I've captured you." "What makes you think I didn't just capture you?" "Because... you're the one in the cuffs." "Alloy steal and titanium." "You forget," "I know exactly what you're capable of." "After all," "I made you." "Now it's time to make you even more valuable." "Stop him!" "Go." "Where is he?" "!" "Do you see him?" "!" "Vincent?" "Thank God I found you!" "Vincent..." "Vincent." "What, you followed me here?" "You got more darts in that thing?" "Yeah." "But one's all we needed last... time." "There he is!" "Shoot him!" "That's impossible." "Watch out!" "It's okay." "It's okay." "It's over." "Hey, you're going to be okay." "His scar's gone." "All that matters is that you're back, safe." "I never stopped looking for you." "Who are you?" "At least let me stay until he wakes up, just to be safe." "I don't need you to protect me from Vincent." "Catherine, I know I haven't earned your trust back yet, but the only way I can truly make my amends is to keep trying, and that starts with helping him and protecting you." "We don't need your help." "What?" "Look, I don't like the guy any more than you do, but aren't you a little concerned about what" "Muirfield did to Vincent?" "I mean, let's face it." "He clearly different." "And, frankly, a little scary." "Scary, JT, really?" "What are you, like, six?" "Come on, it took three tranq darts to stop him." "Three." "He didn't even recognize you, Cat." "Okay, where am I?" "It's okay, it's okay." "Just-just... take it eas..." "take it easy." "Okay, you're home." "Home?" "Okay, just relax." "Vincent, look at me." "Do you remember me?" "I'm..." "I'm Cat." "Catherine." "Catherine." "Yeah." "No." "Sorry." "Okay." "Uh, do you know who he is?" "Your husband?" "Okay, look, you seem like nice people, honestly, you really do, and you are smoking hot, but, unfortunately, I think you're confusing me with somebody else, so I will just be..." "It's all right." "It's all gonna come back to you." "Just..." "Do you remember anything from the last three months?" "Being captured?" "What happened to you?" "I got to go." "Go?" "Go where?" "Recognize him, big guy?" "That's us, taken 11 years ago." "Which means, you and I-- we've known each other a long time." "I completely lost track of time." "I promised my sister I'd be there for my dad's tribute." "It's okay." "I got this." "I'm serious." "That's important." "Go." "I can't just leave Vincent, not after we finally found him." "You're not leaving him." "I got him." "All right." "But whatever you do, don't let him leave, promise." "Don't worry." "He's not going anywhere." "Okay." "I am telling you, somebody set me up." "Made me think I'd finally found Keller so he could flush me out into the open and kill me, and I want to know who!" "Well, first of all, Zhao, you don't tell me what to do." "I don't work for you, you work for me." "You don't understand." "Somebody's out to get me, Reynolds." "And whoever it is stole my formula and turned Keller into the beast that I was gonna turn him into!" "Look, maybe it's time we shut Muirfield down." "Shut Muirfield down?" "I am Muirfield." "Okay, listen to me." "Now, I've warned you before." "As soon as your experiments start getting out of control, we..." "My experiments have made us both a lot of money, so don't threaten me." "And just so we're clear, if I go down, you go down, too." "The FBI came to me 15 years ago, okay, not the other way around." "These may be my creations, but you're the ones who wanted it black ops, so you try to shut me down, and I start talking to the press, understand?" "Keller's worth a lot of money to me, and I want him back." "What happened?" "I don't know yet, but Zhao is still alive." "Does he know we set him up?" "Not yet." "We got to get Vincent to go after him again." "Otherwise," "Zhao is gonna slither away for good." "Has Vincent checked in?" "No, he's not at the boat, either." "I don't even know where to start looking for him." "I think I do." "Zhao said a cop got in the way this morning." "A female cop." "Would you like to try this?" "Hey!" "There you are!" "Hey." "I am so sorry I'm late." "Oh, it's okay, I'm just glad that you're here." "Look at you." "You look so beautiful!" "No, I just, uh, wanted to dress up for Dad." "So, uh, what is it you've been trying to tell me so badly?" "Um, not here, Cat." "Not now." "It's too important, but we'll talk after?" "I'm sorry." "Yeah." "No." "Could I borrow you for a sec?" "Yeah, yeah." "Oh." "And don't forget, you promised to speak for us tonight." "Yes." "Okay." "Yeah." "Ms. Chandler?" "I'm Bob Reynolds." "I just wanted to introduce myself, and let you know how sorry I am for your loss." "Your father was a very good man." "Thank you." "Uh, how'd you know him?" "Mm, crossed paths on a couple of cases over the years." "I'm an FBI Agent." "Really?" "Wow." "Uh, Dad never mentioned he worked with the FBI." "Yeah, he probably didn't want to bore you." "Yeah." "He said you're a detective, is that right?" "Yeah, I'm over at the 125th." "Oh." "You homicide?" "Vice?" "No, I actually used to be special crimes, but, um, right now," "I'm just helping out with a missing persons case." "Ah, missing persons." "They're sometimes the most frustrating." "And heartbreaking." "Tell me about it." "Um... it was nice to meet you." "You, too." "By the way..." "You should know that your dad talked about you all the time." "He was super proud of you." "Worried, but proud." "Worried how?" "I don't know." "He never would say." "I always just assumed he didn't like your boyfriend or something." "Fathers never think anybody's good enough for their daughters." "How true." "Yeah." "I think I know where Vincent is." "So, do we, uh, entertain a lot?" "No, no." "We just have a very big bar." "And the vault." "What are these, safe deposit boxes?" "What do we use these for?" "Uh, well, actually..." "Are you sure you don't remember any of this?" "If I did, would I be asking?" "No, uh, sorry, never mind." "Uh, the truth is, this... you know, used to be a gentlemen's club a long time ago and it was just sitting around empty, so we... moved in." "Just the two of us?" "Yep, just you and me." "But a-as friends." "Good friends, best friends but friends." "Only." "Just." "This isn't helping, is it?" "What about the girl?" "The girl?" "You mean..." "Cat?" "Yeah, she made it sound like were... close or something." "I mean, were we?" "No, you are close." "Seriously, it's like... borderline epic." "What do you remember?" "About anything." "I mean, y-you seemed to... know what you were doing at the warehouse this morning." "Which means, by definition, you must've stored and processed something in your memory banks." "Look, you seem like a nice guy." "But, honestly, if you keep asking me questions," "I'm gonna have to break your neck, so, you know..." "I wouldn't." "Hello?" "I'm sorry, who?" "Condor?" "No, uh, you got the wrong number." "I got to go." "What?" "No, y-you can't go." "Sorry, I'm late." "Late?" "Late for what?" "No." "Vincent, you have to stay." "I promised Cat." "Tell her you couldn't stop me." "Please don't make me shoot you again." "What?" "What-what is it?" "Why are you smiling?" "On his own dime and time," "Thomas did more pro bono work than any lawyer I know and, for that and more, we honor his name on our letterhead tonight and from now on." "JT, is everything all right?" "No, actually." "Vincent's gone." "What?" "How could you let this happen?" "I didn't really... have a choice." "And now..." "Did he say where he was going?" "...daughter, Catherine, to say a few words on behalf of his family." "Cat?" "JT, talk to me, damn it." "Sorry." "Can't." "JT?" "JT?" "JT?" "I am so sorry." "I still can't believe Vincent tranq'd you." "He would never do that to you." "Here." "Well, maybe not the old Vincent." "He's gone, Cat." "I know he's gone, JT." "No, I mean he's gone mentally." "Far as I can tell, he can't remember anything about you, me, college, his childhood, nothing." "It's as if his memory's been wiped clean." "I'm not sure he's ever gonna remember us." "I don't believe that." "What are you doing?" "You said Vincent said he was late for something." "Maybe it has to do with that guy that got away." "There." "Forward that to Gabe." "Have him run an I.D. check through every database he can access." "Maybe if we can find who Vincent was after, we can find Vincent." "Keep me posted." "Wait, where are you going?" "Do a little surveillance." "Damn it." "Hey, so we don't screw up any more cases, can you take a look at this?" "Don't you ever knock?" "Sorry, old habit." "I keep forgetting" "Joe's gone and you're in charge now." "For some reason, my brain just, like, can't process that." "Go figure." "You recognize this guy?" "No, never seen him before." "That's the problem." "He doesn't exist anywhere on any database." "How does someone stay off the grid in this day and age?" "I don't know." "Friends in high places, maybe?" "Is this a case we're working on?" "No, it's a case Catherine's working on." "And she asked you to help?" "What, did she lose her mind?" "No, she lost Vincent." "And the last time she saw him, he was after whoever this guy is, which is what I'm trying to figure out." "Whatever." "Let me know if I have enough for an arrest, okay?" "I'm going home." "So that's it?" "You don't care?" "About Cat?" "Always." "About Vincent, um..." "I don't know." "I mean, personally, I like him-- at least I used to-- but I'm just really tired of watching him ruin her life." "Enough already." "Do you care that we might be able to save him, like Catherine saved me?" "I'm sorry, when you say "we," do you mean we humans or we beasts?" "And by "we," I mean you." "Tess, I am not a beast anymore." "If I was, don't you think Muirfield would still be after me, too?" "I don't know, okay?" "All that crap just gives me a headache anyway, and I wish I never even knew about it." "But you do, which means you were meant to know about it, which means you were meant to help." "Whether you're tired of it or not." "What is it?" "It's a match." "Popped up on the SEC database of all places." "Whoever was covering his tracks must have forgot to look there." "Li Zhao?" "Li Zhao, who's that?" "He's the geneticist I tried to find when I first started looking for a cure, until I realized he's the one who created Muirfield." "Vincent's going after the man who turned him into a beast." "Condor." "What happened?" "Sir, I don't know." "I let Zhao think that he had caught me." "And I had him, but..." "Sir, who is Catherine Chandler?" "Nobody you need to worry about." "Yeah, but she seemed to know me and..." "I believed her." "So?" "You're trying to tell me you're surprised that you had a life before this?" "Did that never occur to you?" "Of course not, sir, but when..." "Then forget about it." "You can't let it distract you, do you understand?" "You've got a job to do, soldier." "This is why you were chosen, what you were trained for." "That is all you need to remember." "Now get back on Zhao's trail before he disappears again and eliminate him this time, understood?" "Understood, sir." "Stop him!" "Gamble paid off." "He came back." "Nothing wrong with his short-term memory." "What's he doing?" "He's on the move." "If Gabe's right, he's following Zhao, although I have no idea how." "I wouldn't try to stop him if I were you." "I'm not." "If he's after Muirfield," "I want to be there when he finds him." "We talking revenge?" "No, justice." "I'll call you back." "Okay, JT, I give up." "I have no idea how Vincent is tracking Zhao." "I might know." "According to the blood sample from the tranq dart, it looks like it might be all part of the new Vincent." "I'm listening." "There's been a small but significant change in his DNA." "Simply put, Vincent can now slow down and redirect the hemoglobin in his blood to heighten specific senses." "Okay, I'm not following." "Look, when you and I walk down a street, our senses can only tell us what's happening at that moment, right?" "But an apex predator he can use his senses to track down another animal that passed by that same spot hours or even days before." "JT, there are eight million people in this city" "How could Vince possibly track..." "Do you know that grizzlies have been known to track their prey over 20 miles across the wild?" "Yeah, a grizzly, maybe, but not a..." "A beast?" "Whoa!" "Who did this to you?" "!" "Who are you working for?" "Vincent!" "Vincent!" "Who sent you?" "Vincent, where are you?" "Vincent..." "What?" "This is how we met." "You saving me." "Whether you remember it or not, we're meant to be." "Our preliminary investigation indicates that the explosion was not related to any form of terrorism." "That said, however, the investigation is ongoing." "Bad news." "None of the bodies at the scene matched Zhao's DNA." "Got away again." "Damn it." "At least Muirfield's destroyed." "Yeah, but with Zhao still on the loose, it won't be long before he finds a way to start another" "Muirfield, and we're right back where we started." "So what do we do?" "Bank on Vincent to follow orders." "Hope my daughter doesn't get in the way again." "Here, sit down." "No, I'm fine, really." "Sit." "Too bad you can't heal yourself anymore." "That's different, too." "Look, I just want to say I'm sorry." "For what?" "For not remembering any of this, not... not remembering you." "It's okay, you will." "Bright side, in the meantime, we get to fall in love with each other all over again." "What makes you so sure we will?" "'Cause we don't have a choice." "I told you, we're meant to be." "You really believe that, don't you?" "I do." "And I know you do, too." "You just... don't remember it yet." "But you do believe me, don't you?" "About us?" "Yes." "But..." "I..." "But what?" "Vincent, what aren't you telling me?" "You can trust me;" "we can trust each other." "We always have." "Did Zhao do this to you?" "Was this just about revenge..." "Let it go." "No." "Please, don't." "I just..." "I just want to help you." "I... hate that they did this to you." "I..." "I hate that they keep hurting you and I don't understand why." "Why can't they... why can't they just leave you alone?" "I don't know." "But I can't answer any more questions-- do you understand?" "Yes." "Yes, all right." "I'm sorry." "It's just..." "It's been a long three months." "All that matters is that you're back, and that Muirfield's gone, and they can't... hurt anyone else like they hurt us." "Zhao got away." "I know." "I know, and we will find him, I promise." "But not tonight." "Tonight... please don't go." "♪ 'Cause I can't make you love me ♪" "♪ If you don't" "♪ You can't make your heart" "I won't." "♪ Feel something it won't" "♪ Here in the dark" "♪ In these final hours" "♪ I will lay down my heart" "♪ And I'll feel the power" "♪ But you won't" "♪ No, you won't" "♪ 'Cause I can't make you love you me ♪" "♪ If you don't." "I've lost... so much." "I can't lose you again, too." "Hello?" "Cat, it's Tess." "Where's Vincent?" "Tess." "What?" "Vincent." "Do you know where he is?" "I think you better get down here." "What happened?" "I got to tell you, Cat, this is gonna be pretty hard to keep under wraps." "Why?" "Who's the victim?" "Li Zhao." "It gets worse." "He wasn't just killed, he was mauled to death, as if by a wild animal." "Where's Vincent?" "== sync, corrected by elderman == @elder_man"

"The star fell, Bull." "That is no ordinary star." "That is the tear of a warrior." "What is a warrior?" "One who has finished his battle somewhere on this planet..." "A pitiful soul that could not believe in the Great Spirit..." "The report from Callisto went directly to Sir Vicious." "He is requesting a deal for Red-Eye." "30,000 Woolongs per gram." "A total of 7500 grams." "Why did he specify you as the dealer?" "He is a Titan veteran." "We were in the same unit." "Why does he rely on you now?" "Callisto is undergoing a depression right now." "If he can't see the future, he is sure to worry." "All the more reason to keep our hands out of that moon." "Vicious, are you not the one that is worrying?" "You have no permission to make your own decisions." "Regardless of who it is, those who go against the Van's will are punished." "You believe that I would betray my own mentor?" "Mao's case was merely bad luck." "Lin..." "You shall go with Vicious." "Yes." "Wang Long!" "Callisto is a frigid planet." "Take plenty of winter clothes." "To me, no cold climate is worth taking precautions for." "It is true that the planet is warmer than your heart." "Your heart is colder than a snake's skin." "Vicious." "A snake cannot eat a dragon." "I will be fine by myself." "I'll go with you." "Remember this." "If you want to survive, you must betray me at times." "No, never." "That would go against the Van's will." "Such old-fashioned thinking makes me nauseous." "Those damn corpses!" "I will protect you, for the honor of the Red Dragon." "Honor, huh...?" "Then, it's up to me to slaughter them all!" "It's hot..." "Where are the others?" "What a depressing bunch..." "What's with this humidity?" "It's so muggy that I can't sleep!" "Oh, it's just a breakdown." "It'd be hard for me to do if I saw your faces so I'm leaving without seeing you one last time." "PLEASE don't look for me." "That wench..." "She sucked out all the antifreeze from the radiator." "It'll be out for at least half a day." "Even if she didn't pull this stunt we wouldn't look for her." "Right?" "She emptied out the safe as well." "7, 8, 9... hello!" "Are you really looking for Faye?" "1 , 0, 1 , 1 , good-bye!" "Are you just wasting time?" "Is there anything else to do right now?" " Ooh!" "Boom!" " You found her!" "?" "I wonder who this is..." "Lesse... code name..." "Julia!" "Where is that coming from!" "?" "Lesse..." "Pretty close..." "Looks like Blue Crow on Callisto..." "Where's it going to?" "It got disconnected..." "Hey!" "But..." "Actually, there are no girls in Blue Crow." "Honestly..." "Hey, Spike..." "Is that it?" "Hey!" "Hey, wait, Spike!" "That's a common woman's name!" "Those damn corpses!" "What about Faye?" "Leave her." "This is a lawless area." "A woman surely can't survive wandering about all alone!" "Feeling sympathetic?" "Plenty of sympathy..." "for the money she ran away with!" "Spike!" "I'm gonna go look." "What?" "I'm gonna look for my woman." "You can look for that other woman." "You're gonna have nothing to do with this?" "That's right." "We only go so far." "Even if you come back, there won't be a place for you here." "Can't do anything about it." "I'm sure you're not as lonely now that you have more strange roommates." "Me?" "You stayed here just for that reason?" "You're being stupid!" "It's been three years since I teamed up with you." "But I never knew you looked at me that way!" "I was under the impression that YOU were the lonely one!" "Well we got rid of that misunderstanding." "Good riddance!" "Now we'll have more money for food!" "I never did understand you, even to the very end!" "I don't understand, either." "So long!" "I don't know any woman." "Like I would know!" "Not even a rumor?" "I have no luck with 'em!" "I'd rather be with an armadillo!" "Have you heard of the name Julia?" "You shoulda said so earlier!" "There's one in front of Tony's place every night!" "Excuse me!" "I'm not Julia." "Ju-li-US!" "I'm Julius!" "Oh, I see..." "Hey, you're my type." "Wanna hang out with me tonight?" "I'm sorry, I already have plans." "Oh, yeah." "Gren might know something..." "I've seen him with a woman before." "Gren?" "It's cold." "Looks like this is it for tonight." "Oh, a customer?" "Not even." "Can't you tell he's straight?" "Come on, let's switch locations." "Hey, who and where is Gren?" "So you wanna hang out with me tonight?" "He's a sax player in Blue Crow." "Take care." "That was close." "When someone sneezes and doesn't get told to take care, that person becomes a fairy..." "That's what they say around here." "Then it's okay." "I'm already a fairy." "I'm not as easy as I appear to be." "Unfortunately, I am not interested in women..." "Oh, that's a shame..." "But the others seem to be highly interested." "You didn't know that there were no women in this town?" "So I'll be very popular..." "You should watch out..." "Thanks for the warning." "I'm searching for something..." "There's nothing here." "The only things are stale bread, a broken-down car, and rancid booze." "Like I would know!" "I'm looking for a guy named Gren." "No idea." "I see." "Hey, you need something?" "You're Vicious, right?" "ME?" "!" "Where's the money?" "If ya don't put out, it won't do ya any good!" "This is annoying..." "So annoying it's repulsive!" "What the hell do you mean!" "?" "Why the hell am I Vicious?" "There was info that there was gonna be some deal for Red-Eye." "From Gren to Vicious." "I thought of taking that cash..." "You think I look like I got money?" "Foreigners are all rich." "And the code name was Julia?" "Heh..." "Sure sounds like some easy wench's name!" "Yeah... really." "Gimme a Cowboy." "There are no bounties around here." "Bourbon with milk." "Oh, THAT Cowboy." "I knew that." "You can't possibly be a bounty hunter." "So, who's our customer today?" "Grencia Mars Eliijah Guo Eckener." "That's along name!" "Yeah." "He escaped from military prison three years ago and the statute of limitations is about to expire." "...and that means?" "The bounty is double!" "This is a chance you can't miss!" "But I kinda feel like we can let him go..." "Judy, what are you saying?" "He's an escaped convict!" "But, Punch..." "He's very handsome!" "Just look at his picture!" "Lesse..." "Oh, come on..." "I'm much more handsome than he is..." "Punch, I just can't laugh at that joke..." "Hey, can you turn that thing off!" ".?" "Well, calm down." "I'm sorry, man." "Don't worry." "That guy passed out over there is a cop." "What do ya wanna say?" "Actually, there's a bounty on my head, too." "This place is a hideout for people like that." "I see..." "So you can rest assured." "Me?" "What's with this?" "I wanted to get rid of all this frustration, and nobody's coming?" "Oh... you're all here." "Miss, your appearance is rather harmful to the eyes." "Or are you enticing us?" "Yeah, I am..." "Hold on a minute." "If I don't do this, I'll chip a nail..." "Okay, any time now!" "You wench...!" "Hurry!" "Why did you bring me here?" "Because you said you're a fairy." "Why did you come with me?" "'Coz I got no place to stay." "You can trust me that easily?" "You said you weren't interested in women." "I might take your money and kill you..." "That's fine." "I've lived longer than I seem." "It's broken." "You came to such a slummy neighbourhood all by yourself?" "I'm alone." "I don't want comrades and it's not worth having any..." "I end up worrying about things I don't have to..." "You know, 'coz I'm such a good woman..." "All the guys end up fighting for me." "They often say that humans can't live alone..." "But you can live pretty long by yourself." "Instead of feeling alone in a group it's better to be alone in your solitude." "When I'm dealing with them, it's nothing but trouble..." "And I don't get squat out of it..." "So it doesn't matter if I'm there or not..." "You just got scared of losing them." "So you distanced yourself from them." "You're weird." "Think so?" "I don't know why I'm talking to you about this..." "I feel like I'm in a confessional..." "Have you ever had experience as a minister?" "No..." "Take care." "You want to take a shower?" "No, thanks." "I don't know where peeping toms might be..." "You shouldn't peek, either." "Hm, I can't guarantee that." "Gren..." "You're not there?" "Vicious!" "?" "I'm out with 'honroutou'." "Along with the 'mangan' and the 'ura-dora', it's 32000." "I'll be waiting." "Are you dating Julia behind my back?" "Sir Spike!" "Hey, Lin." "You've gotten pretty big." "He used to work under you, but things are different now." "I feel sorry for her." "Having her name used for some crooked deal like this." "You were always the one leaving others out of the loop." "We still haven't settled the score from earlier." "Anytime." "Lin!" "Get out of the way, Lin!" "Julia was here, in this town." "Hey, out of the way, Lin!" "Lin..." "A woman?" "W-Which are you?" "I am both, but I am neither." "Hey..." "How are men and women different?" "Hmm..." "I think women are hiding more vital things than men are." "Yeah... but there are women that aren't feminine." "And there are men that aren't masculine." "What about those that aren't normally feminine but show that side on some chance circumstance?" "I like that." "Oh?" "I'm not talking about you." "Then who?" "Maybe it's Ed!" "Next episode:" "JupiterJazz, part 2." "Maybe it's me."

"Bingo! Fucking hell." "Fucking hell." " Oh, God..." " Keep your shit together." "If you wanna get 'em out of here." " l can pop these, no problem." " So get to it!" "Security, we have a break-in." "Get the... I know who you are." "I know what you think... lf you don't wanna get hurt, keep your mouth shut and don't move." "The chimps are infected." "They're highly contagious." "They've been given an inhibitor." " infected with what?" " To cure, you must first understand." "lnfected with what?" "Rage." " What is he talking about?" " Get the cages open." "No!" "No!" "No!" "Listen, you sick bastard, we're taking your torture victims with us." "We'll get you out of here." "The animals are contagious." "The infection is in their blood and saliva." "One bite..." "Stop..." "Stop!" "You've no idea! Get it off!" "Help me!" "Get it off!" "Get it off!" " What's the matter with her?" " You have to kill her!" "Oh, my God!" " What's the matter with her?" " We have to kill her now!" "Oh, God... Hello? Hello?" "Hello! Hello?" "Hello! Hello?" "Hello? Father?" "Father, are you OK?" "Oh, shouldn't have done that." "Shouldn't have done that." "Shit!" "Over here!" " Over here!" " Come on!" "Go, go, go!" "Keep going!" " What the fuck is going on?" " Just shut up!" " Covered everything." " Who are those people?" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" " What the fuck is going on?" " Just move!" "Come on!" "Man walks into a bar with a giraffe." "They each get pissed." "The giraffe falls over." "The man goes to leave and the barman says "Oi!" "You can't leave that lying there."" "He says "No, it's not a lion. lt's a giraffe"." "He's completely humourless." "You two should get on like a house on fire." "So who are you?" "You're from the hospital." " Are you a doctor?" " He's not a doctor." "He's a patient." "I'm a bicycle courier." "I was riding a package from Farringdon to Shaftesbury Avenue and a car cut across me." "Then I wake up today in hospital." "I wake up and I'm... I'm hallucinating or I'm..." "What's your name?" "Jim." "I'm Mark." "This is Selena." "OK, Jim." "I've got some bad news." "It started as rioting, and right from the beginning you knew this was different." "Because it was happening in small villages, market towns." "And then it wasn't on the TV any more." "It was in the street outside." "It was coming through your windows." "It was a virus." "An infection." "You didn't need a doctor to tell you that." "It was the blood." "There was something in the blood." "By the time they tried to evacuate the cities, it was already too late." "The infection was everywhere." "The army blockades were overrun." "And that's when the exodus started." "The day before broadcasting stopped, there were reports of infection in Paris and New York." "We didn't hear anything more after that." " What's the government doing?" " There's no government." "Of course there's a government!" "There's always a government." "They're in a bunker or a plane..." "No, there's no government, no police, no army." "No TV, no radio, no electricity." "You're the first uninfected person we've seen in six days." "Where's your family?" "They're dead." "Like Selena's." "Yours will be dead too." "Look, I have to find them." "They live in Deptford. I can walk it." "OK?" "You'll go and come back, yeah?" " You won't." " Yes!" "No one ever comes back." "So lesson one." "You never go anywhere alone unless you've got no choice." "Lesson two." "Only travel during daylight." "Unless you've got no choice." "We'll take you tomorrow." "We'll all go and find your dead parents together, OK?" "Eat." "If you want her to slow down, you'll have to say." " lf there's anyone..." " l understand." " Anyone..." " l understand!" "OK." "Jim..." "Wait!" "They died peacefully." "You should be grateful." "I'm not grateful." "My... parents and my sister, we went to Paddington Station," "hoping maybe we could get on a plane, maybe we could buy our way onto a plane." "I remember my dad had all this cash, even though cash was completely useless." "About 20,000 other people had the same idea." "Crowd was surging." "I lost my grip on my sister's hand." "I remember the ground was soft." "I looked down and I was standing on all these people." "Like a carpet." "People who had fallen and..." "Somewhere in the crowd there were lnfected. lt spread fast." "No one could run." "All you could do was climb." "Climb over more people." "So I did that. I climbed." "And I got up on top of this kiosk." "Looking down, you couldn't tell which faces were infected and which weren't." "Then I saw my dad." "Not my mum or my sister." "My dad." "His face..." "Selena's right." "You should be grateful." "We don't have time to get back to the shop before dark." "We should stay here tonight." "My room's up at the top." "You two can have that." "No, we'll all sleep in the same room. lt's safer." "Jim." " You're back." " Yeah." " How was it?" " Fine." "Give me a drink of that, will ya?" " lt's empty." " Ha!" "Here." "I'll start working on them, then." "Mark!" "Mark!" "Selena!" "Help!" "It's clear." " That's Mr Bridges." " Were you bitten?" "And his daughter." "From four doors down." " Were you bitten?" " No." "Did any of the blood get in your mouth?" "No." "Mark?" "Wait... Get that cleaned off." "Do you have any clothes here?" "Um..." "I..." "Yes." "Then get them and get dressed." "We have to leave now." "More infected will be coming." "They always do." "How did you know?" "How did you know he was infected?" " The blood." " There was blood on me. lt was on you." "I didn't know he was infected." "He knew. I could see it in his face." "If someone gets infected, you've about 20 seconds to kill them." "It might be your brother, your sister or your oldest friend. lt makes no difference." "Just so you know where you stand, if it happens to you, I'll do it in a heartbeat." "He was full of plans." "Have you got any plans, Jim?" "Do you want us to find a cure and save the world orjust fall in love and fuck?" "Plans are pointless." "Staying alive's as good as it gets." "Hey, hey, hey, hey." "What's that?" "Let's go." "What is it about tower blocks and shopping trolleys?" "Stop talking. lt's a long way up." "Do you need a break?" " You?" " No." "Now I do need a break." "What's up?" "Nothin'." "I got a headache." " Bad?" " Pretty bad." " Why didn't you say something before?" " l didn't think you'd give a shit." "You've got no fat on you and all you've had to eat is sugar." "So you're crashing." "There isn't a lot we can do about that except pump you full of painkillers and give you more sugar." "As for sugar," "Pepsi or Lilt?" "Do you have any Tango?" "Actually, I did have a can of Tango somewhere." "Quiet!" "That's an infected." "Oh no, they're in." "Move!" "Wait up, Selena!" "Wait for me, please!" "Please, Selena!" "Please!" " Wait for me!" " Come on!" " Run!" " Wait!" "Please!" "For fuck's sake!" " Selena!" "Down the corridor." "Flat 157." "Move!" "Thank you." "Thank you." "Open the door!" "Open the door!" " Open up!" " Where's Dad?" "What?" " Open the fucking door!" " Where's Dad?" "Let them in, Hannah." "Let them inside." "Go in." "Go in! So, I'm Frank, anyway." "Jim." " Selena." " Selena." "Good to meet you." "This is my daughter Hannah." "Come on, sweetheart." "Say hello." "Come on." "So..." "This is great." "Just great." "Calls for a celebration, I'd say." "Why don't you all sit down and..." "Hannah, what have we got to offer?" "We've got Mum's creme de menthe." "Great." "Creme de menthe." "Oh, yeah." "Look, sit, please." "Get comfortable." " Where are the bloody glasses?" " Middle cupboard." "Nah, the good ones. lt's a celebration." "Top cupboard." "So this is your place?" "It's nice." "There." "I know it isn't much but, well, cheers." "Cheers." "You OK in there, Jim?" "Yeah." "Sorry we couldn't spare the water." "Same with the toilet." "The flush doesn't work." "You'll have to use the bucket." "Have to empty it each morning." "Just chuck it over the balcony." "No mod cons here." "It's fine." "Listen, it's late." "We're gonna turn in." "We have a spare room." "In there." "Are you and Selena...?" "No." "No, no, no." "Um... I'll take the living room. lt's fine." "Right." "No, I mean, yeah." "So, um..." " Goodnight, then." " Yeah." "Goodnight, Frank." "Very spruce." " Very shredded." " Yeah." " So what do you make of them?" " Well, they're desperate." "Probably need us more than we need them." "I think they're good people." " Good people?" " Yeah." "You should be more concerned about whether they're gonna slow you down." " Because if they slowed you down..." " l'd leave them behind." " ln a heartbeat." " Yeah." "I wouldn't." "Then you're gonna wind up getting yourself killed." "I'm gonna get some sleep." "Selena..." "You think I don't get it, but I do get it." "And I know I'd be dead already if I hadn't met you." "Sure." "No, look... I mean, thank you." "And I mean, sure." "Goodnight, Jim." "Goodnight." "We lost water pressure three weeks ago." "I thought we'd be OK with the water from the other flats." "Cisterns and tanks." "But it vanishes so quick you wouldn't believe." "You drink it, it evaporates, turns stagnant." "They're all empty." "Hasn't rained in ten days." "You can set up a plastic sheet to catch dew and condensation." "Saw it on TV once, but I can't make it work." "You'd never think it." "Needing rain so badly." "Not in fucking England!" "Jim, we're not going to be able to stay here." " There's been no broadcasts for weeks." " Just listen." "Salvation is here." "The answer to infection is here." "if you can hear this, you're not alone." "There are others like you." "There are other survivors." "We are soldiers and we are armed." "Oh, my God." "Soldiers." " Quiet." "There's more." " Our location is the 42nd blockade, M602, 27 miles northeast of Manchester." " You must find us." "Salvation is..." " Now itjust repeats." " lt's a recording?" " Yeah, it's a recording." "But this is where it's telling us to go." "Just there." "The way things are, we might need two or three days to get up there." ""We"?" "Sound carries in this flat." "Me and Hannah do need you more than you need us." " Look, I didn't..." " No, it's OK. lt's the truth." "I can't leave the block if it's the two of us." "Something might happen to me." "Hannah'd be alone. I couldn't risk it." "But with other people... lf it's a recording, the soldiers who made it could be dead." " lt's possible." " That stuff about the answer to infection..." "There is no answer!" "It's already done all the damage it can!" " Maybe they have a cure." " Maybe they've got nothing." " The only way to find out is to reach them." " We could die trying, Frank!" "Or die here." "And anyway, it isn't true what Dad said." "You need us just the same as we need you." "We need each other." "And we'll never be safe in the cities." "The soldiers could keep us safe." "So we have to try and get there." "Get there how?" "Just so you know, I don't take cheques or credit cards." " What do you think?" " lt's the most direct route." "Then we should take the indirect route." "The one in daylight and not underground." "Let's just get it done." "No, no." "No." "See, this is a really shit idea." "You know why?" "Because it's obviously a shit idea." "So we're gonna drive into the tunnel full of fucking smashed cars... lt's really fucking obviously a shit idea!" "Hold on!" "Dad! Fuck!" "The world's worst place to get a flat." "Agreed. I think we'd better do this quick." "I've got the wheel." "You're on the jack." "Do you hear that?" "Hey, hey, do you hear that?" "Hear what?" "Right, I've done it." "Dad?" " Jesus Christ!" "Fucking rats!" "They're running from the infected." "Move it!" "Forget the jack, Hannah." "There's no time." "Just lift, everyone." "Grab hold!" "One, two, three, lift!" "Lift, lift!" " Don't look at them!" "Don't look!" " l can see them!" "They're coming! Come on, Hannah!" "Almost." " Get the tyre on, Hannah!" " l'm trying." "Three, two, one, drop it!" " Get in the car!" " Come on!" " Frank, drive!" " Move it, Frank!" "Whoo!" "Goodbye, you fuckers!" "Frank, stop the cab." "Let's shop." "You..." "You..." "You..." "Anybody seen any buns?" "Hmm. irradiated." "Don't take anything that needs to be cooked, OK?" "I think you can eat that raw." "Decaffeinated coffee..." "Put that back." "Can'tjust take any crap." "If I never see another chocolate bar again, it'll be too soon." "Not counting Terry's Chocolate Orange!" "Now, single malt, 16-year-old, dark, full flavour." "Warm but not aggressive." " Peaty aftertaste." "Takes out the fire but leaves in the warmth." "Either we do this now or we're walking." "Not you." " Stay close, Jim." " What?" "You heard." "Where are you going?" "We've got enough food, Jim." "We don't have any cheeseburgers." "Like going on holidays with your aunt!" "Oh, Jesus." "Hello?" "I hate you!" "Find anything?" " Find anything, Jim?" " No!" "Let's get outta here." "OK, we're done here." "OK, Hannah." "Easy." "Brake!" "Brake, brake!" "Out." "Mmmm!" "Oh my God!" "I can, like, taste the vitamin C." "Mmmm, the raisins are so moist." "What did you say?" "The raisins." "They're so moist." "Look over here." "Like a family." "Do you think they're infected?" "No." "They're doing just fine." "Come on." "Let's eat!" "Know what I was thinking?" "That you'll never hear another piece of original music again." "You'll never read a book that hasn't already been written, or see a film that hasn't already been shot." "Um.... that's what you were thinking." "No." "I was thinking I was wrong." "About what?" "All the death." "All this shit." "It doesn't really mean anything to Frank and Hannah because..." "Well, she's got her dad and he's got his daughter." "So..." "Cheeky monkey!" "I was wrong when I said staying alive is as good as it gets." "See, that's what I was thinking." "Was it?" "Mm." "You stole my thought." "Sorry." "That's OK." "You can keep it." "It's getting late." "We'd better stay here for the night." "I can't sleep." "Me neither." "Doesn't feel safe, does it?" "Outside like this." "I think we're safe enough." "Selena didn't seem to have any trouble." "Yeah, I noticed that." "Hey, Selena..." "What?" "What is it?" "How'd you get to sleep?" "Bloody hell." "Must've needed a hell of a prescription for that lot." "I didn't need a prescription." "I qualified as a chemist." "Oh, great." "Valium." "Not only will we be able to get to sleep but if we're attacked in the middle of the night, we won't even care." " Two each." " Not for me, thanks." "Can I, Dad?" "I don't think so, sweetheart." "Please?" " No." " l can't sleep." "Come on, Frank." "Let her live a little." " Give her half of one." " All right." "We're on." "Night-night." "You're a big softie, Frank." "Frank?" "Hannah?" "Frank?" "Hello?" "Hello!" "Hello!" "Hello!" "Hello! Shh..." "You're having a bad dream, that's all." "Thanks, Dad." "Come on, sleepyhead." "Come on, Babe Ruth." "Hurry up." " Did I miss breakfast?" " You'll sleep through anything." " Did you have a fry-up?" " We'll stop at a pub on the way." "Door!" "Our location is the 42nd blockade, the M602, 27 miles northeast of Manchester." "You must find us." "Please!" "Salvation is here." "The answer to infection is here." "Must be Manchester." "The whole of Manchester, the whole city." "No fire crews to put it out." "42nd blockade." "This is it." "I don't understand, Dad." "Did they leave?" " l don't like this. I think we should go." " No!" "Vehicles." "We should check the vehicles." "There has to be something." "Nothing." "I can't believe it." "Frank..." "Frank!" " We have to go." " Yeah." "Go fucking where?" "! Get out of it." "Get out of it!" "Dad, are you all right?" "Yeah, I'm fine, sweetheart." "Sorry I lost my temper." "Hannah... I love you very much." " What?" " Keep away from me." "Stay where you are." " Dad?" " Keep away from me!" "Keep away from me!" "Keep away!" "Keep away!" "Keep away!" " Dad!" " Keep away!" "Keep away!" "What's wrong?" "Dad!" "Jim!" "Jim, he's infected!" " No!" " Now, Jim!" "Now!" " Jim, kill him!" "Jim!" " Dad!" "Kill him!" "Stay away from him!" "Keep away from the body!" "Dad?" "Three survivors." "One male, two female." "I repeat, one male, two female." "ETA, 15." "Put the kettle on." "I'm Major Henry West." " Welcome." " Jim." "Hello, Jim." "Hello." "Well, we've got beds with clean sheets and a boiler that produces hot water." "So you can all have a shower." "You look like you need one." "Please." "It ain't funny. I got loads of cooking to do, you fucking Doris!" "Run him over!" "How is she doing?" "She's lost her dad, Jim." "That's how she is." "It's all fucked." "What do you mean?" "Oh, don't do that." "Come on, come on, come on." "Hey, don't do that." "Hannah is what Frank says she is." "Tough, strong, and she'll cope just like I'll cope." " Just like you'll cope." " l don't want her to have to fucking cope." "I want her to be OK." "When Hannah had her dad it was OK." "It was OK for them and it was OK for us." "Now it's all just fucked." "So you heard our broadcast?" " Yeah, we did." " We must be a disappointment." "You were hoping for a full brigade." "An army base with helicopters and a field hospital." " We were just hoping for..." " The answer to infection." "Yeah." "As I said before, it's here." "Though it may not be quite what you imagined." " Just feel lucky to have found you." " You were lucky." "The fire drove hundreds of infected out of Manchester." "The surrounding area's teeming with them." "But don't worry." "You're quite safe here." "Flat terrain all round the house." "Floodlights which we've rigged up to a generator." "High perimeter wall which helps." "And we've been lacing the ground with tripwires and land mines." "You wouldn't want to mow the lawn, but if they get in, we hear them." "Secondary to protection, our real job is to rebuild." "Start again." "The belly of the house." "The heart." "A wood-fired boiler providing us with hot water." "The first step towards civilisation." "The kitchen." "Here you are. I'll swap you." " Now don't be throwing it." " Here, give us some." "Don't be fighting." "Will you put that back?" "Put it back." "Jones, our resident tin opener." " What are you cooking, Jones?" " Surprise, sir." "I can't wait." "And lastly, meet Mailer." "Mailer, Jim." "Jim, Mailer." "Got infected two days ago." "Mitchell managed to knock him out cold and we got a chain round his neck." "Keeping him alive?" "The idea was to learn something about infection." "Have him teach me." "And has he?" "In a way." "He's telling me he'll never bake bread." "Farm crops, raise livestock." "He's telling me he's futureless." "And eventually he'll tell me how long the infected take to starve to death." "You'll have to wait and see" "Hope it's chips, it's chips" "We hope it's chips, it's chips Hat." "So, what have we here?" "Tinned ham, tinned peas, tinned beans and..." " Nice one, Doris!" " Omelette!" " lt's a feast, Jones." " Honour of our guests." "Absolutely. I was going to propose a toast but this omelette will do just as well." " To new friends." " New friends." "Jones, did you notice while cooking that these eggs were off?" "I thought the salt might cover the taste, sir." "Get rid of it." "Doris, you twat." "I don't suppose you can cook, can you?" "I can't tell you how badly we need someone with a little flair in the kitchen." "What a fucking disappointment." "I saw those eggs, I thought it was Christmas." "We'll have eggs again." "Once everything's back to normal." "You muppet!" "Look at him, eh?" "He's still waiting for Marks and Spencer's to reopen." " You don't know nothing." " l think Bill's got a point." "If you look at the whole life of the planet, we... you know, Man has only been around for a few blinks of an eye." "So if the infection wipes us all out, that is a return to normality." " That what you meant, Bill?" " Yeah, yeah." "Have you met our New Age sergeant?" "Our spiritual guru." "Tell me, Farrell, exactly why did you join the army in the first place?" "This is what I've seen in the four weeks since infection." "People killing people." "Which is what I saw in the four weeks before infection, the four weeks before that..." "As far back as I care to remember, people killing people." "Which to my mind puts us in a state of normality now." " You're not eating?" " l don't want to eat." "You must eat, Hannah." "I don't want to eat." "I want to bury my dad." "He's one of the people you're talking about." "Let's go, let's go, let's go!" "Move!" "Move!" "Move!" "Move! Enemy in front!" "Mick, I fucking got one!" "What do you want, a fucking sweetie?" "Keep shooting, you cunt!" "Fucking hell!" "He bounced!" "Cease fire!" "I ain't never seen that in my life!" " Report clear!" " Fucking hell!" " Clear." " Clear." "Yeah, yeah, clear." "Oh, hello! Listen, sweetheart, you ain't gonna be needing this any more." "Cos you got me to protect you now." "You wanna get your hands on a really big chopper, you just come and see me." "Fuck you!" " That's an offer, Mitch." " Give her some." "How about right now?" "Mitchell!" "Easy, tiger." "You don't wanna go picking a fight with me, son." "Sergeant Farrell!" " Mitchell, first action on." " Resecure the perimeter." "Then get to it." "Jones, Bedford, go with him." "Slow down." " Sergeant?" " Sir." "Clear the bodies off the lawn." "The rest of you, go with him." "My apologies." "Drink?" "Look, we're grateful, OK?" "We're very grateful for your protection but if we're gonna stay here..." " Who have you killed?" " No one." "Who have you killed?" "You wouldn't be alive now if you hadn't killed somebody." "I killed..." "I killed a boy." "A child?" "Yes." "But you had to." "Otherwise he'd have killed you." "Survival." "I understand." "I promised them women." "What?" "Eight days ago I found Jones with his gun in his mouth." "He said he was going to kill himself because there was no future." "What could I say to him?" "We fight off the infected or we wait until they starve to death and then what?" "What do nine men do except wait to die themselves?" "I moved us from the blockade, I set the radio broadcasting and I promised them women." "Because women mean a future." "Selena!" "Hannah!" " What is it?" " We have to go." " Jim, wait!" " No time!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "We get in the car and we go!" "No!" "You're not going to keep them here!" "You've got to let them go!" "You can't keep them here!" "Stay where you are!" "I'm not gonna let you keep them here!" "You can't do this!" "Right, get him!" "I want to give you a chance." "You can be with us." "But I can't let them go." "OK, Jim?" "OK." "Him too." "Smithers says "Women and semen don't mix."" "And Mr Burns says "We all know what you think, Smithers."" "And that was my favourite joke in The Simpsons." "That's what they're doing a few hundred miles away, across the Channel, across the Atlantic." "Eating dinner and watching the fucking Simpsons!" "They're sleeping in their beds next to their wives." "But we're here chained to a fucking radiator because the OC has gone insane!" "Starting the world again when the rest of the world hasn't even stopped." "Just imagine, just think about it." "How could infection cross the oceans?" "How could it cross the mountains and the rivers?" "It can be stopped." "Right now TVs are playing and planes are flying and the rest of the world is continuing as fucking normal." "Think!" "Actually think about it." "What would you do with a diseased little island?" "They quarantined us." ""There is no infection." "It's just people killing people." He's insane!" "Time to go." "Quarantine?" " Please..." " Believe me, I'm not interested." "You see, I'm gonna have the black one." "And I'm gonna make her squirm." "Mitchell, I swear to God it's gonna end badly for you." "Move." "Come on, move!" "Get up!" "Get up, you cunt!" "Fucking move!" "Get up!" "Move your fucking arse!" "Come on then, you fucking pansies." "Do me first." "No, Mitch." "Mitch, just use the gat." " So you're gonna stick me?" " Shoot 'em!" " Why?" " Because it's fucking quicker!" "is that how you'd let your sergeant go out, Jones?" " l'll shoot them!" " No, you won't." "You'll let him stick me?" "Like a fucking dog?" "I'm gonna enjoy this." "You stupid cunt!" "What are you doing?" "You wanna shoot me?" " You wanna shoot me?" "I'll kill you!" " Where's he fucking gone?" "Fuck it!" "Get up!" "Get after him!" " Jones, move it!" " l can see him!" "I can see him!" "Where are you?" " Can you see him?" " Through there! Oh no." "We're fucked." "We're fucked!" "Relax." "He's over the wall." "He's got no vehicle." "And no shooter." "He's dead." "The first thing we're going to do is make you look more presentable." "The lady of the house has an extensive wardrobe which she certainly has no use for." "You can't do it to Hannah." "Go to the master bedroom, pick out a wide selection." "Yes, sir." "No..." "Ladies..." " lt's only dressing up!" " No!" "Selena!" " l thought girls liked dressing up." " Expensive dresses." "Selena!" "Whoa, whoa, relax!" "Selena!" "Selena!" "Selena!" "You need to leave me alone with Hannah." "OK?" " Listen, right." "The OC wants..." " He wants us to dress up nice." "If you want us to get changed, you have to leave the room." "OK?" "It's just polite." "Yeah, all right." "All right." "Come on, lads." "Let's leave the room." "We're gonna eat these, Hannah, OK?" "Come on." "Eat these." "Are you trying to kill me?" "No, sweetheart." "I'm making you not care." "OK?" "What you doing?" "!" " Someone's at the blockade!" " Jim!" "Move!" "Stay here and put the dresses on." "Let's go!" "Go!" "He went over the wall." "We thought he'd be dead." "Shut up, Jones!" "Stay here." "Davis? Fuck it!" " What was that?" " Lightning." "I heard something." "It sounded like a Claymore to me." "All right, I'll go and hit the floods, take a butcher's." "Girls, keep an eye on him, will ya?" "Those pills, I think they're having an effect." "I can feel them." "And... I don't feel sleepy." "But..." "They've been a long time." "What are you gonna do if they don't come back?" "Would you be the officer if Henry was dead?" "is that the way it works?" "Shut up." "I don't think they are coming back." "I think they've been killed." " l said shut up!" " Hannah..." "They're dead." "And you're gonna be next." " Get up!" " Whoa!" "We're gonna get out of here." "Stay with it, Hannah." "Don't worry. I feel fine." "Really." "Get him off me!" "Get him off me!" "It's Jones!" "It's Jones!" "Oi!" "Where the fuck are you going?" "What's all the fucking shouting about? Don'tjust stand there, you soppy cunt!" "Get after them!" "You two, in there!" "Move! Come on, then!" "What the fuck you gonna do now? Come on up!" "Col!" " Defend these stairs with your fucking life!" " Hannah!" " Mailer's loose." " Hannah! Sorry..." " Sir..." " Shh." "Shh." "Hannah? Hannah?" "Selena?" "I haven't got any bullets." "I haven't got any fucking bullets!" "Don't fucking leave me!" "Come on!" "Move!" "Move!" "Move!" "It's just you and me now, darlin'." "But don't worry, I'll get you out of here." "Then we'll find a nice little fucking place somewhere." "Just you and me." "And we'll live happy ever after, eh? That was longer than a heartbeat." "Jim?" "Listen." "Listen. it's not all fucked." "We're gonna be OK. lt's not all fucked." " l've got to explain something." " Shut up." "It's gonna be OK." "Hannah, it's OK!" "He's not infected." "But I thought he was biting you." "I was kissing her." "Are you stoned?" " lt's a long story." "We have to get out of here." "Come on!" "Come on!" "Move!" "You killed all my boys." "Wait..." "Hannah!" "Hannah?" "Hannah!" "Hannah!" "Get in." "They're locked." "The gates are locked!" "Fucking do it!" "Come on, Jim, breathe!" "Fucking breathe!" "Not the curtains as well." "You looked all right in this, you know." "It's coming!" " You definitely heard it?" " Yeah!" " l can't hear anything!" " l told you, I heard it! Go." "Do you think he saw us this time?"

"For the most accurate weather," "he is the man who has brought the events as they are happening... before they happen." "In fact it's almost natural how accurate this man has been about weather." "It has made us wonder." "Starting this winter he'll be giving his heart and soul... to do it for the rest of us all over the country." "This man is your new "Hello USA" weatherman." "This man is Greg Harrison and he's willing to do whatever it takes." "Let's cut it, I got a sense you didn't like the commercial." "What makes you say that?" "Because you haven't said a word about it which is not like you." " Well..." " Come on, I can take it..." "I'm gonna make you a little evil." "The message is that I'm ruthless... that I'm willing to take whatever it takes to bring the people the weather." "They like that." "But you're not ruthless, Greg." "Jane, you've got to be pretty ruthless to get to be the national weatherman." " Have you smelled this?" " No." "See how ruthless I am?" "My parents' Brownstone is just like this one." "Rope Street was just around the corner." "I used to walk home from school down the street all the time." "Hello?" "Not very friendly." "It's nice, isn't it?" "Yeah, it's alright." "Sorry, it's not exactly my style." "Not as if you had a style, Greg." "That's why I hook up with you, dear." "So your aunt fell down all those stairs?" "It's a lot of stairs for an old lady." "Hell of a lot of stairs for anybody." "Somebody should have told her to move somewhere else." "She wouldn't listen." "My aunt depended on no one." "I would come here to visit her when I was little." "I remember I used to lie awake at night... fantasizing about having my own apartment." "Just like this one." " And now it's mine." " Yours?" "She put my name on the list, so I pay what she paid, $400 a month." "$400?" "The Landlord can't be too happy about that." "A lot of people would love to get this place for 3 or $4000." "I'm not going to sublet it, Greg." "I'm keeping it." "Keeping it?" "I don't understand." "We just got a place together." "I just want a little space." "Is that a crime?" "My office is so small and Cheryl shares that with me." "I just... and this place is so cheap." "I knew this is your graceful way of telling me..." "I was..." "I was waiting." "That's why..." "Hey, you're Greg Harrison "rise and Shine, New York", right?" "Let me shake your hand." "You're great." "Thanks a lot." "I appreciate that, really." " See ya." " Thanks, have a good night." "That's why you kept pushing back the moving date?" "If this is your graceful way out of it," "I'll live in the Westchester house myself." "I'm in the middle of the most important career move of my life." "I need you now." " Why couldn't you tell me sooner?" " I didn't know sooner" "Jane, you think you can throw people's life into turmoil and it doesn't matter?" "It does!" "It has serious repercussions." " Can we talk about this?" " If you'd calm down, Greg." "What about dinner?" "You'll have to forgive me." "I'm not in the mood for that anymore." "I'm gonna go open up." "Oh, you've got keys." "How did you get the keys?" "I'm moving into the apartment on the 5th floor." " My name is Jane Emelin." " I've seen you here before, haven't I?" "Probably, I used to visit my aunt Cecile." " You know Cecile?" " Well, of course I did." "Hello Jane, my name is Martha Stewart." "Not the famous one, though." "You know, I'm the one who found her." "It was just awful." "Her head smashed potato." "Poor dear." "Do you need any help carrying your things in?" "No, I'm fine, I had movers coming." "I have a lot of stuff." "Oh, good, good." "That's what this building has." "Can't be bought, can't be sold." " Have you met anyone else yet?" " In the building?" "No, not yet." "Oh, we're all a very friendly group here." "Mr. and Mrs.Brian live on the second floor." "Mr. Colins lives on the 3rd floor." "He's a dashing man." "You should leave him alone though." "He likes his privacy." "What about the person who's right beneath me with all the trash bags?" " The 4th floor?" " Yeah." "Oh, dear Alice." "Poor thing." "She was hit really hard by your aunt's death." "It was just about more than she can stomach." "You won't be seeing much of her." "She's a hermit." " An eccentric widow." " Yeah?" " Oh, what's this?" " So you like older man, do you?" "No, not necessarily." "He looks a lot like that weatherman the "Rise and Shine" guy." " Yeah, that's him." " Where did you meet him?" " I helped him with his office." " Secretary?" "Not quite, I helped him with acquisitions." "I'm an interior designer." "Yes?" "What's going on here?" "You just come here and no one says anything to me?" " I'm sorry." " You are sorry?" "You will be, you just can't move in without talking to me." " Give me your keys." " No Jerry, calm down, calm down." " You know you're not allowed the keys." " It's alright, it's alright." " What was that about?" " He's the super." "He probably thought he'll be moving into the apartment." "He has to live in the basement with all the storage, you see." "He's got a disability." "Shit." "Hello?" "Who is it?" " Hello?" " Delivery for Jane Emelin." "What?" "He said it has to be set up in your bedroom..." "And we have to program it for you." "He said you wouldn't know how to." "Yeah, I don't know how because I hate television." "I'm sorry madam, I'm just trying to do my job." "Ok, I have to get ready." "We'll just set this up then we'll be on our way." ""In consideration of others you must be quiet"" ""respect this, so that altercation can be avoided."" "Altercation?" "Jerry..." "Did you write something?" "I know you meant it as a nice gesture, Greg..." "But the thing takes up half my bedroom." "I don't know, get somebody to come to get rid of it." "Yeah?" "What surprise?" " Cheryl, you want to bring those in?" " OK." "I gotta go." "I will talk to you later." " Everything OK with you?" " Yeah, everything's fine." "Why?" "I don't know, you seem a little tense." "That's because the lady downstairs left me this crappy note..." "And I want to move my furniture around before it gets too late." "Jeez." "I've got to bring in those tear sheets tomorrow." "I know, I know." "You know, if I can have a good idea what you're going for..." "I can start it for you and then you can unpack." "Yeah, that will be great." "Will you do that for me?" "So call me at home if you have any questions." "I've got it all under control." "I'm just trying to figure it out what I could have done differently." "It's not about you." "It's about me." "It's about this place." "When you asked me to move in with you..." "I really wanted it to be right." "I really did." "And I'm trying to convince myself." "Look Greg, I haven't even lived on my own yet." "I hate to have us moved all the way out there..." "And find out that we didn't really know what we're getting ourselves into." "I just know that this isn't going to turn out the way you want." "Can't we just keep it the way it is for now?" "Then we'll see." "Well, I don't see that I have much choice." "Hey!" "Hey, wait!" " I thought you were Mrs. Stewart." " Mrs. Stewart?" "Yes, thank God." "That woman pursues me everytime I walk into this place." "It's getting me in shape." "I'll tell you that." "How do you do?" "I'm Mr. Colins." "You must be Miss Emelin." "None of us knew that Mrs. Lewis had anyone." "It's such a tragedy, anyway." "I'm sorry I haven't come up and introduced myself." " It's bad form." " No, not at all." "I should have introduced myself." "Actually I'm kind of off to a rocky start... with half the building already." "I've always been amazed at your profession." "To go into other people's houses and decide how they should live." "It's true, but I find that people don't know what they really want..." "And most of the time I have a better idea than they do." "The job is to get inside their heads and try to figure it out." "Sometimes that's tough." "Oh, the million dollar question." "What goes on inside others' heads." "We only know what they show us true." " Quite a collection you have here." " Oh thank you, Mr. Colin." "It's kind of all over the place right now." "That carving, is that South American?" "Actually that's a Cambodian protective spirit..." "You hang it above the doorway and it protects you." "I haven't figured out just how to hang it yet." "I'm a collector myself, you know." "Middle East mostly." "I'm terrible, I keep on getting more and more things." "And I don't have the space for it." "Well, I could probably chat all night but you've got some work ahead of you." "It's good to get a better sense of human." "Hi, I'm not sure if this is an emergency or not, but..." " Name and address." " Jane Emelin, 146,11th Street." "I just saw something in the window right across away from mine..." "I'm not sure, but I sense there's something not right..." "Can you hold on for 1 second, please?" "Sorry to bother you so late." "Hope you still don't have company." " On the phone with your boy friend?" " No." "Just wondering if I can borrow a little sugar, dear." " Sure." " Thank you." "Good morning, rise and shine and get out of bed, New York city." "Wipe that sleep out of your eyes." "Come on everybody don't be a plain Jane." "Ted was asking how to become a weatherman." "Well Ted, there's a lot you can do..." "Oh, gross." "Oh boy." "You've been warned." "Take it seriously." ""Sorry about the noise..." "Jane Emelin (Cecile's niece)."" "Need any help back there young lady?" "Oh no, I'm just looking for the right size nails." "Let me in, come on." "For the last time I'm telling you." "Open up, come on." "It's Mrs.Brian, her husband got diddly and locks her out again." "They are both deaf." "Blind as bats too." "And don't touch her." "They scare very easily." "So I gather you met Mr. Colins last night?" " Yeah, he's very nice." " Well, I'm glad you've met." "But it's best not to bother him again." " Why do you think I was bothering him?" " I understand, dear." "But it's really best if you leave him alone." "OK." "Open the door!" "Open this door!" "Damn it!" "Hello?" "Apartment 5?" "You just moved in, Jane?" "I saw your note on the door downstairs." "Oh yeah, I haven't met her yet." "You stick something here when you try to open the door?" "No Well, something's jamming this up." "You're gonna need a new lock." "Ok, I think this should cover it." "We saw each other last night didn't we?" "I'm sorry?" "Right over there, across the way." " You were looking in my apartment." " No, I wasn't." "Don't you know about people and their privacy?" "Just kidding, don't worry about it." "Hope you didn't call the cops on me or anything." "No... no, of course not." "I just happened to notice you and your wife." "She's not my wife." "She's just helping me with something." " Here's your new set." " Thank you very much." " It's a great apartment." " One of my favourite building." "It's impossible to get into this building." " Is that key to my place also?" " Yeah." "I keep the master on every lock that I worked on in this building." "The super isn't allowed to keep keys here." "He's a little strained." "You know, you have a really interesting face." "Come on, this is absurd." "I've got to move in, granny." "Unbelievable... unbelievable." "Oh man." "OK, listen to this, you must lay large area of rug buffers down... to reduce everday disturbances." "You're forbidden to wear shoes after dark..." "You may keep them outside your door as is customary in Japan." "And there's more." "After 10 pm, no guests are allowed." "Any romantic liaisons may be carried out... with common regard for oral disturbance." "She keep saying that." "Oral disturbance?" "If objects are to be moved around, you may do so between 1 and 1:15..." "And this includes provisions." "I mean, is she fucking kidding me?" "How many?" "Pages, pages upon pages..." "And then the last sentence says..." "You have been warned, so there'll be no forgiveness." "You know, you should ask around about this lady." "She sounds a little cuckoo." "Yeah, she does, doesn't she?" "I mean, do you think a little old woman could have written that?" "You've got to close your window or something..." "You've got a fly problem here." "Oh, I don't know." "I'm probably overreacting but..." "But it just seems so vicious and weird." "Like I have to walk on egg shell in my own apartment" "I understand." " You're loving this, aren't you?" " Don't say I didn't warn you." "These people are very unpredictable." "You had this romantic idea of a friend..." "Are we a little nervous?" "Hi, I saw this at the auction today..." "I thought you'd like to consider it as a house warming gift." "Wow, that's very nice, thank you." " Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize that..." " No, it's OK." "That's Greg Harrison, the weatherman." "You know, I watch you every morning when you're on." "That's very kind, thank you." "We actually went to the same high school..." "My name is Albert Collins?" "You used to live down this area, didn't you?" " Do we know each other?" " No, no, you wouldn't have known me." "But I thought that since you're such a famous alumni..." "I had to mention it." " Anyway, I didn't mean to intrude." " Not at all, not at all." "Hello?" " Excuse me, I have to take this." " Yeah." " Have a seat." " Thank you." " So you decided to stay down here?" " Oh yes." " Excuse me." " Don't worry about it." "So they still talk about me at Peers 4?" " Yes I understand." " Of course it's very hard." "I'm on your side though, Mrs. Adamson" "I know, I know, I'll speak to you first thing in the morning, OK?" "Alright, Ok, bye-bye." "Sorry about that, she keeps threatening to get another..." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Greg?" "Jane." "You scared me." "Are you sure this alone space is good for your health?" "Where did you go?" "I was in the hallway saying goodbye to Collins." "He's a nice guy." "Let's eat." "I'm famished." "What?" "You have to wipe this completely otherwise they spot." "No, look, this one is starting to streak already." "Well, this is the way I wipe plates." "What's with you all of a sudden?" "Don't get offended because I want my plates wiped a certain way." "Your plates?" "You've got everything your certain way." " What is that supposed to mean?" " Forget it." "No, what does that mean?" "Please, I'm trying to concentrate." "Stop it!" "You know, nothing is compromise with you." "It's either your way or bust." "You're really going to throw a fit because of the way I want my plates?" "Come on Jane, you're smarter than that." "This isn't about your goddamned dishes." "What's the difference?" "What's the difference if I move out there with you..." "Or I just stay out there with you?" "Come on Greg, I thought we had a great night together." "We ate together, washed dishes together..." "But it's your place." "It's not our place." "You know what's your problem, Greg?" "You're so hung up on terms." "I really don't think it'd make a tiny bit of difference." "I really don't." "I love you, I love spending time with you." "But Jane, what do you think we are doing here?" " We're playing house." " I'm tired of playing." "I'm not taking shit from you tonight." "I was just standing right there and then suddenly..." "The tiles just started exploding." "I mean." "Look at my floor." " Any answer?" " No." "That's because she supposedly never answers the door." "The lady on 1st floor said a nerdy lady lives downstairs." "Yeah, that's her, that's Alice." " Well, they blew up in a line." " I'd say it's your heating pipes." "It happens in these old buildings." "It's explosive, it's violent." "It's not heating pipes." "Excuse me." " Jane Emelin?" " Yeah?" "You called a few nights ago to report on something else..." "About this neighbour?" "No, that was another person across the building next to mine." "Alright, now listen... you can fill out a report if you want to." "But if you ask me, you should call your landlord and check your pipes." "My pipes?" "Yeah, OK." "Thank you" "I thought it might be you." "What's all that hubbub earlier with the police?" "Don't worry about it, Martha." "I'm taking care of the problem." "We don't like the police coming here." "You mess with me, I mess with you." "Do you hear that?" "Do you hear that?" "I overslept, the power somehow just went off in my apartment" "I'm leaving right now." ""The warnings are over."" "Is there anything we can do legally?" "Anything at all?" "I'm just trying to think impartially here." "I don't think anyone's going to believe an old lady... is capable of doing all this." "Has anyone else complained?" "No, but I don't think it's a coincidence..." "It's been happening since I moved in." "Everything you have is circumstantial." "Listen Jane, I'll do everything you want me to..." "But between you and me if you're having so many problems..." "Maybe it'd be easier if you just move out." "Moving out is not an option for me, Ashley." "This apartment's just a fluke." "You and Greg're going to move in together." "Are you on Greg's payroll?" "Jane, did you bring in the mock-ups for the Bering meeting today?" "No, I forgot about that." "I think one of the movers moved them to the basement..." "I'll look for them." " We need them." " Yeah, I know" "I'll get them to you, it'll be just a bit later." "You know Jane, you're a little spun out these days." "Maybe you should just let me go to the meeting." "Just until you calm down and settle this stuff at home." "Cheryl, I appreciate if you keep the personal shit to yourself... and just focus on the office right now." " I'll be fine." " OK." "Jesus!" "What are you doing down here without the lights?" "Mr. Colins, the light switch didn't work." "I just came down here to get something from the boxes." "You scared me to death." "You know, I almost knocked on your door earlier." "Are you alright?" "I heard the police were here last night." "What on earth warrant you to call the police?" "Well, I called them because I had to." "I was attacked by the woman living downstairs." "I'm afraid Alice didn't like your aunt Cecile too much." "She must be taking it out on you." "Martha told me they were friends." "Friends?" "Not ever." "No, the truth is Alice doesn't get along with anyone really." "I'm sorry this has been so difficult for you, but..." "You know, sometimes it takes time to find your goof." "Of course, sometimes people just never do find it." "Like oil and water." "Buildings like this are just about compromise." "So maybe this is a sign for you to move to Westchester after all." "Westchester?" "You mean Greg's house?" "It sounds like a lovely home and he's such a nice man." "Yes, he is." "No, I'm not moving there." "I'll fit in just fine here." "Thank you very much." "I didn't mean to insult you." "I'm just trying to look after you." "No, I appreciate your concern Mr. Colins, but..." "I'll be fine, not to worry, OK?" "Let me in, Betty, please..." "Good evening." "Very well, thank you." "Just trying to find the goof here." "Betty, come on." "Betty, let me in, please." "Betty!" "You just moved in, Jane?" "Oh my god." "Wow, you've got an army in there!" " How long has this been going on?" " Just this morning." "I mean, don't you think that's a little strange?" "You clean up after yourself and everything?" "Yes." "It'll be a while." "So what do you think?" "I come back later this evening?" "Yeah, I need reinforcement Fine, do whatever you have to do." "Get out of here." "I'm coming over Mrs. Adamson, and then we'll work it out" "I'm just having some problems at home lately..." "Can you deliver this to my place at around 5?" " What's your address?" " 146,11th Street, apartment 5." "Of course, you'll be comfortable with everything." "Ok, I'll see you soon." "Say hello to Miss Cooper for me Miss Cooper?" "You know her?" "She's been buying groceries here for 15 years..." "Then 2 months ago there was a note saying she doesn't want deliveries anymore." " Tell her I'm asking about her." " Yeah, OK, I'll tell her." "Come back soon." "We know your address." "I want to talk to you about Alice, Martha." "Alice?" "I was down at the Korean grocery and he told me that..." "She all of a sudden just stopped ordering groceries from him." "Wait a minute... why are you asking the Korean about Alice?" "I didn't ask him." "He just told me that." "What is it with you?" "First the police, then the Koreans..." "Don't you have any respect for people's privacy?" " Are you a spy?" " No, I'm not a spy." "And what about what I told you about Mr. Colins?" "I asked you to leave the poor man alone." "He told me you've been knocking at his door..." "Asking this and that this and that." "There are rules here..." "But you just have to have it your way, don't you?" "You're just like your aunt!" "Why are you attacking me all of a sudden, Martha?" "I'm not attacking you." "I'm warning you." "You're walking on very thin ice down here." "You're putting the thermometer on the radiator." "Some of us are trying to live here." "We've got to talk." "Have you noticed a lot more flies in your apartment these days?" "Yeah, a few, now that you mention it." "They've been coming up through the drain in your tub." "The white things in your tub are maggots." "Someting must have died in those pipes." " They like to nest in soft tissue." " Something died?" "Don't worry, I sprayed pretty good but I'd keep a plug for a few days." "OK." "Now about the mice..." "I was cleaning up when I found this." "Now take a close look." "You see the white mouse?" "That's an albino mouse." "That ain't natural." "That's a laboratory mouse." "People use it to feed their pet snakes." " I don't understand." " At first I didn't either." "Come here." "I cover this up for you." "That's the mouse hole there?" "Take a look at that hole." "That ain't no mouse hole." "Somebody drilled that." "You don't have a mouse problem, lady, you've got a neighbour problem" "Greg, are you there?" "Will you pick up please?" "Ok, there are some very bad things happening now." "I think something really strange is going on." "The neighbour down below me." "I really need you to call back, OK?" "Please!" "Can you hear me?" "Are you there?" "Oh my god." "Oh my gosh." "Portcullis." "Hello?" "I have deliveries for upstairs." "Can I leave it with you?" "Yeah, I'll be right down." ""Truce accepted"" "I'm trying to tell you that somebody hit me!" "Look at my forehead!" "You passed out, Jane." "You hit your head on the floor." "You're my lawyer, OK?" "Now I'm telling you somebody hit me." " Did you see him?" " I don't remember." "They said her memory is going to be a little shaky." "I remember everything!" "I remember everything that happened to me." "I remember he sent me a picture of Aunt Cecile's dead body, Greg..." "Like he was behind it." "And I was taking these pictures." "I was going to show you." "I had all the proof." "He stole everything that I had." "What pictures?" "This fucking maniac, he diagrammed my apartment on his ceiling." "I saw it." "He knew exactly where everything was..." "And he had everything all mapped out." "I saw it." "Who is he?" "There is no old woman downstairs." "An old woman couldn't have done what I saw." "He did something to her!" "Did any of the neighbours say anything?" "They don't think anything is going on." "Well, we have to go to the police." "Can we show the police anything?" "My floor, he drilled a hole on my floor." " Only there's no hole." " What?" " Are you sure it was here?" " Yes, I'm positive it was here." "I don't understand." " Are you alright?" " Yeah, I'm fine." "We have a recurring 1019 with Jane Emelin..." "It just doesn't make any sense." "You called a few times before." "Haven't you, Miss Emelin?" "A few times?" "Yes, I tried to get help." "Copy that." "Alright, I'll go down and check the hall downstairs... and see if I can see anything." "I don't understand." "So how come you didn't tell me about calling the police?" "They keep a list." "You know, they'll think we are both crazy." "I saw the plans in the 4th floor apartment." "Whoever this guy is, he wants to take the building back." "How about all other people on the other three floors?" "Why hasn't anything happened to them?" "Nobody knows what you're talking about, Jane." "We can go back there tomorrow when I'm feeling a bit better..." "Then I'll show you exactly what I'm talking about." " I could find the exterminator." " No." "This has got to stop." "Nobody believes you, Jane" "I'd say you don't even have to go back to that building." "The phone gets turned off tonight..." "I'll get the movers to pack it up tomorrow." "You're safe, we've got a great house up in the country." "Things got out of hand and... it happened badly..." "But ...it's a good thing... that we're moving in together." "And I will give you what you need." "I promise." "Knock knock knock!" "You think you can get away with me?" "Come on, you son of a bitch!" "Face me now!" "Come on out and face me you motherficker!" "I'm not afraid of you." "Come out, you fucking coward!" "You'd better come downstairs." "He wants to take my place that fucking coward" "I know you think I'm crazy, but I'm not, I'm not crazy." "No, not at all." "Coz I know what I know." "I know he did something to that woman." "And I know he did something to my aunt." "I know it now." "I believe you." " You do?" " Yeah." "There is something really evil going on." " Evil?" "You think so?" " I saw it..." "I saw it upstairs." "It's not something that I'm just going to walk away from." "I'm trying to own what's mine and I have rights." "And I won't let somebody to just take that from me." "I understand." "I have a right to be here just like anybody else!" "And he wants to take that away from me, my rights!" " You were saying?" " Portcullis." "I tried to look after you to give you the clues." "To make you see that this is not where you belong." "Unlike the others, I gave you the chance to leave." "But you want to know the answer to the million dollar question." "Do you know it now?" "You're here." "Welcome to my design." "Welcome to the inside of my mind." "Ever been caught in a portcullis before?" "A chamber to insulate the pharaohs in their tombs." "This is my version." "Help!" "Help!" "Silence is the most beautiful noise in the world." "You don't understand that!" "Building... is an organic creature." "As an organism of this building what I need is not a lot to ask for." "But you have kept your rules and Cecile didn't understand." "Alice didn't understand!" "You all have your infections." "And infections have to be cleared and cut out!" "It's very sad, Miss Emelin." "We see the world in much the same way." "Territory is very important to us." "Unfortunately your territory infringes on mine." "I think this is the only way out." "What are you doing?" "Colins!" "Gregory." "Give it." "Rise and shine, New York city..." "Even though we had a feisty fall..." "We got unfortunately an even more active winter on the way." "This is also unfortunately my last show as your local forecaster." "No no no, I'll be with you still on every morning on "Hello, USA"." "First let me give you the one last look of the weather in your area." "Did you get everything we wanted today?" "Yeah, the Adamsons are back on track." "I gave them some suggestions." "I think you'll approve." "Well, I'm sure I would." "I have total faith in you, Cheryl." "Hey, I'm just trying to do my job." "Yeah, that locksmith guy called." "Left his address, said he needs to see you." "Had something to show you." "Oh good, I never got a chance to thank him." "For the past 10 years New Yorkers have known who to turn to... for the most accurate weather." "He's the man who has brought the events as they are happening... even before they happen." "In fact, it's almost unnatural how accurate this man has been about weather." "It has made us wonder." "Starting this winter he'll be giving his heart and soul... to do it for the rest of us all across the country." "This man is your new "Hello USA" weatherman." "This man is Greg Harrison." "He's willing to do whatever it takes." "THE END" "Corrected by jcdr"

"...some weird stuff started happening." "Why does my stomach hurt?" "I'm sorry, baby." "I ate a bunch of ice cream earlier today." "Oh, baby, you know we're lactose-intolerant." "Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait." "Are you suggesting that when one of you feels something," " the other feels it, too?" " Oh, God, you guys are so codependent." " No, we're not." " Oh, really?" "What about the other day?" " Oh, I need to get some eggs." " Oh, I'll come with you." "Just because we like spending time together doesn't mean we're codependent." "Really?" "Then whatever happened to your plan of spending the last two weeks before your wedding sleeping apart?" "Okay, we decided not to do that because of..." "Logistics." " Wedding logistics." " Frickin' logistics, man." "They mess everything up." "You didn't do it because you couldn't do it." " Sure we could." " Then why don't you?" "You can stay with me." "It would make our wedding night more special." " Okay, let's do it." " Done." " I'm gonna go grab a beer." " I'll come with you." "No." "I'll stay." "Subtitles :" "Willow's Team" "Transcript :" "Raceman" "Okay, I know." "You know?" "I got to go." "Good-bye." "My mom's driving me cra...." "God, you guys are covered in sauce." "We'll get to that." "Me first." "My mom is driving me crazy about the wedding music." "The woman takes one cruise to Jamaica, and suddenly, it's" ""not a party without steel drums."" "Doesn't everybody know you're not supposed to stress out a bride right before her wedding?" "!" "Okay, sauce, go." " Long story." "I'll tell you later." " Yeah." "It's a dirty story, isn't it?" "You guys went out to dinner, did it in the kitchen and got caught." "Scherbatsky reeks of someone who likes to get caught." "Okay, now I have to wash up for two reasons." "Oh, you didn't." "That's right." "So you and Lily really think you can spend two weeks apart?" "You know what, Barney?" "Lily and I are a lot less chees than you make us out to be." "Marshmallow, don't forget to pack my night-night tape." "Night-night tape?" "Did you make a tape of you saying "night-night" to her?" " No." " He doesn't say it." "He sings it." "Oh, that is so sweet." "Why don't you kiss?" "I love it when two chicks make out." "Damn it." "Nobody's bought us anything cool yet off our registry." " What's on there?" " Ooh, lots of stuff." "Kitchen Aide Artisan Series tilt-head stand mixer..." "Retail price $319.99." "What else?" "Um, the Dyson DC17 Animal vacuum." "Ah, $549.99." "A little greedy, don't you think?" " Did you memorize our registry?" " No, I'm training." " Training?" "For what?" " I'm glad you asked." "Ted, Robin, get in here!" "You guys know how it's hard to be friends with me 'cause I'm so awesome?" "Yes, it's hard to be friends with you." "Go on." "Well, this isn't going to make it any easier." "I am going to be on..." "The Price Is Right." " No way!" " What?" "!" "Yes, in a couple days, Rich Fields is going to call out my name," " and I will come on down." " Whoa, that is so awesome." "Barney, I didn't know you were such a fan of The Price is Right." "Are you kidding?" "T.P.I.R. is not just an indescribably entertaining hour of television, it's a microcosm of our entire economic system-- a capitalist utopia, where consumers are rewarded for their persistence, market acumen and intrepid spirit." "I gaze upon the glory of The Price Is Right, and I see the face of America." "And it is divine." "Plus, you know, hot chicks on sports cars." "Then Lily headed out to Robin's for her first night away from Marshall." " I'm ready!" " Ta-da-da-da-da..." " Wow, Lily, you look so beautiful." " I know!" "I'm beautiful!" "I'm a fairy princess!" "I'm too skinny for my dress!" "Meanwhile, I was testing out my best man toast on Marshall." "Here goes." "Hello, everyone, I'm Ted Mosby, Marshall's best man." "Strong opening, right?" "That's fantastic." "When Marshall graduates this spring, he'll be a lawyer." "But did you know that Marshall has a criminal record?" "That's right, on a road trip up to Cape Cod," "Marshall was pulled over for driving by himself in a car pool lane." "Oh, crap." "Oh, crap." "Are you crazy?" "You cannot tell that story at my wedding." "My entire family's gonna be there." "My little cousins, my mom, my grandma, my grandpa the minister." "That grandpa died three years ago." "His favorite grandson is getting married, Ted." "I think he can take a day off from haunting the barn to make an appearance." "Whoo!" "Whoo-whoo!" "Whoo!" "Whoo-hoo!" "Oh, yeah!" "Oh, yeah!" "Oh, yeah!" "Oh, yeah!" "Oh, yeah!" " So which one, "A" or "B"?" " What was that?" "I have to decide how to run to contestant's row when they say," ""Barney Stinson, come on down!"" "Oh, I didn't realize that's what it was." "Can you do them again?" "Yeah, of course." "Hey!" "Very funny." "Just for that, when I win all the prizes, the only thing you guys are getting is Rice-A-Roni and Turtle Wax." "It's $300 just to take the bust in?" "Oh, please, you have to have some sympathy for me." "I'm getting married next Saturday, and I'm too skinny for my dress." "I lost all this weight without even trying." "Hello?" " What happened?" " She called me a bitch and hung up." "Oh, I don't know what to do." "I guess I'll just have to pay the $300." "Pay the $300?" "Lily, are you crazy?" "This isn't a problem." "It's a license to eat." "Look, what have you always wanted to eat but didn't because it was too ridicuusly decadent?" "Ooh, a Valrhona chocolate soufflé with a raspberry brandy sauce topped with caramelized bananas and hazelnut gelato." "I have Cool Whip and half a bag of Fritos." "Done!" "Okay, think you're gonna be happy with my new toast." "There's nothing sexual." "It's, uh, it's just the story of an important moment in your relationship." "I'm all ears." "Hello, everyone, I'm Ted Mosby, Marshall's best man." " Nice." " Right?" "That's great." "Back when we were all freshman and Marshall and Lily were just a few short weeks into their relationship..." "It was 4:00 in the morning, and I'm not gonna lie, we were a wee bit wasted." "We were starving." "So I'd gone out to get us some snacks, and when I got back..." " I love you." " I love you, too." "I know it's soon to say it, but I'm so glad you did." "Yeah." "So here's what you want to talk about in front of my entire family:" "drinking, having a girl in my room, eating junk food." "Dude, you're almost 30." "Your mom would be mad at you for eating junk food?" "Yeah, Ted, 'cause nutrition's not important." "Also, so Lily's never heard that story before." "How's she going to react when she finds out the first time I said "I love you" to her," "I was actually saying it to you and a bag of Funyuns?" "But who cares?" "You did love her." "And you still do." "And you're totally over Funyuns, so it's not weird." " Hey, Lil." " Hey." "Hey?" "That's it?" "What are you talking about?" "Well, you guys have been spending the last few nights apart." "I figured there'd be a lot of giggling, crying, jumping up and down, and then whatever Lily would do." "Now, one thing I remember about the bar menu at McClaren's is that there were no fewer than 11 different deep-fried appetizers." "That night, Aunt Lily ordered them all." "Check it out." "Okay, imagine... imagine, if you will, that this is the $1 space on The Price Is Right wheel." "Ready?" "Oh, wow, that was pretty close." "Close?" "Close?" "!" "It's called The Price Is Right, not The Price Is Close!" "Oh, man, this is bad." "If I don't win the spin-off, and I can't get into the Showcase Showdown, everything's ruined!" "It's all ruined!" "What is ruined?" "Why, why is this such a big deal?" "Okay, guys... sit down, I've got to tell you something." "The reason I'm going on The Price Is Right is because I've decided that it's time for me to meet my real father." " Your father?" " That's right." "My father... is Bob Barker." " Your dad... is Bob Barker?" " That's right." "The host of The Price Is Right, Bob Barker?" "That's Pops." " Barney?" " Yes, Robin?" "Why in the world do you think Bob Barker is your father?" "Uh, because my mother told me he was, that's why." "Mom, who's my dad?" "All the other kids at school know who their dad is." " Who's mine?" " Oh, I don't know." "That guy." "Look, Dad, I got straight A's!" "Hey, Dad, guess who I'm going as for Halloween?" "Want to play some catch, Pop?" "So now I'm gonna go to L.A., be on the show, win the Showcase Showdown, make him proud of me, and then tell him who I am." "You're gonna tell Bob Barker that you're his son on national television?" "Why is this so hard for you people to believe?" "Drop the popper!" "Lily has to gain five pounds in a week and a half, and it is my job to help her get there." "This is the best wedding diet ever." " I lost a pound." " That is impossible." "You ate McDonald's every meal for three days." "I knew that Super Size Me guy was full of it." "Well, it must be the wedding stress." "We just got to up the intake." "Lily Aldrin, drop and give me 20 bites of fudge!" "Okay?" "Don't nibble at it." "Attack it!" "Come on, Lily." "You can do better than that!" "I can't." "Well, eat faster, before your body figures out it's full." "I'm trying." "Oh, are you gonna cry?" "You gonna cry?" "Skinny little baby's gonna cry?" " Well, eat, damn it, eat!" " Okay!" "Hey, so I think I figured out how to do your toast in a completely appropriate way." " Finally." " Yeah." "Good evening." "I'm Ted Mosby, Marshall's best man." " Still strong, right?" " Great, yeah." "I'd like to share with you all a story about the momentous evening last fall when Marshall and Lily got back together." "Afterward, we stayed up till 10:00 at night," " doing shots of chocolate milk." " Man, I'm well nourished right now!" "Calcium promotes healthy teeth and bones." "Thanks, Marshall, for teaching us you don't need alcohol to have fun." "Oh, don't thank me." "Thank my parents for teaching me good values." "Now, I wasn't supposed to hear this next part, but Marshall leaned over to Lily and whispered." "You know what I'd like to do to you right now?" "I'd like to hold your hand." "I'd like to hold your hand so hard that you're not able to shake hands for a week." "Are you just going to talk about holding my hand or are you going to hold it?" "Then a little later, Robin caught them..." "Oh, um... ...holding hands." "It was a lovely and responsible night." "To Marshall and Lily." "That's the worst toast I've ever heard, dude." " It's totally boring." " Exactly." "It's impossible to write a good toast with you censoring me, man." "I give up." "I'm just going to read that thing about Jesus and the footprints." "I give up, too." "I don't care if my dress doesn't fit." "I can't eat anymore." "I-I feel like my stomach's going to explode." "I know." "And so, Lily and I were both about to give up, but as you can all see, Lily does look beautiful in that dress, and here I am giving a toast." "You know, all this time, I'd been wracking my brain trying to pick out the perfect moment to capture Lily and Marshall as a couple." "But then I realized the perfect moment wasn't some needle lost in the haystack of their ten years together." "The perfect Lily and Marshall moment happened two nights ago." "Marshall, what are you doing?" "Going to the bathroom." "In the hall?" "Sleepwalking?" "You're wide awake." " Robbing us?" " Dude." "Turns out, all week long he'd been sneaking out to a hotel on 72nd, to meet Lily." " God, I missed you." " I can't sleep without you." "Hey, baby?" " Would you be the big spoon for a while?" " Sure, baby." " How's the weight gaining going?" " Ugh, terribly." "I'm too stressed out without you around." "Well, I'm here now." "And so Lily and Marshall failed in their experiment with apartness, but they succeeded in getting Lily into her dress." "You know, there really are a million things I could tell you about Lily and Marshall, but really, the only thing you need to know is that ten years into their relationship, they still couldn't spend a single night apart." "May they never have to again." "To Lily and Marshall." "To Lily and Marshall." "Now, kids, the story of Lily and Marshall's wedding is a good one." "No matter how perfectly you plan your..." "You know, wait a second, guys." "I'll get to that." "First, I've got to tell you what happened with Barney." "Rich, what is the name of our next participant?" " Bob, it's Barney Stinson!" " Come on down!" "You're the next contestant on The Price Is Right." "Nooo." "Oh, my God!" "Working his way out." "High-five here, high-five there." " A big old hug here." " Oh, my God!" "Yeah, I know, the camera loves me." "Welcome to contestant's row, Barney." "Nice suit." " Thanks, Da..." "Bob." " Here is the next item up for bid!" "Bob, the stylish his-and-her watches feature an 18k gold bezel and crown and stainless steel bands." "And Barney, what do you bid on that?" "Um..." "Wrong." "Wrong." "Wrong." "Wrong." "Retail price is $1,349.99, so, since you round off, I'll say $1,350, Bob." " $1,350 for Barney." " So, was it $1,350?" "I don't know." " Was it?" " Oh, my God!" "Happy wedding." "Barney, you won that camcorder in just one second!" "That is impressive." "I mean impressive." "Thank you, Bob." "Now, to win the computer, you're going to have to bid again, and again I will say higher or lower." "And let's show the audience the price of the computer, and audience, please, do not try to help us." "And the clock will start with your first bid." " $1 billion." " Lower." "So, I brought some photos that I thought you might like to see." " This is me on my first birthday." " Yes, Barney." " This is..." " What are you doing?" "Uh, spending some quality time with my dad." "That's very nice, but look, the clock is moving." "You have only about 16 seconds." "Keep bidding." " No, no, I want you to see this." "This is great." " Keep bidding." "This is me at my graduation." "I know, the hair." "That, no, that's nice." "That's nice." "You have only five, four, three, two, one..." " $999." " Nine..." "Barney, you got it exactly right!" " Happy wedding again!" " Oh, my..." "I have to be honest, Bob." "The big wheel is the only weak part of my game." "I'm sure you'll do just fine, son." "Did you just..." " I'm ready, Bob." " Do it!" "Do it!" "Here we go!" "He's looking for the dollar." " It's going around, and around..." " Oh, no, you spun it too hard." "No, he didn't spin it hard enough." "Here it comes, Barney." "You got it!" "You won..." "But Barney..." "Barney, you're not through." "You've won $1,000." "You've won a place in the showcase." "You are doing splendidly so far." "Thank you, would you, would you say you're proud of me?" "Sure." "That was kind of a weird moment." "Very well, Barney, you have seen the first showcase." "Do you want to bid on it or do you want to pass it to Millie?" "Please, no car and an above-ground spa?" "Pass." "Millie, he has passed this showcase to you." "What do you bid on it?" " $17,640." " $17,640." "Overbid!" "Now, let's see Showcase #2." "Barney, your showcase begins with a mystery." "Oh, I love this." "I can't believe how excited I am right now." "Barney, you have seen your showcase." "What do you bid on it?" "Please, please." "Please." "Let me." "1-8-4-2-1." "I don't even know what we're going to do with a dune buggy, but I want it!" "And the actual retail price of your showcase is..." " $14,628." " $14,628." "Millie, you are over." "Too bad." "Barney, you bid $18,421 on your showcase." "And the actual retail price of Barney's showcase is... $18,421 exactly right!" " You win both showcases, Barney." " Oh, my God!" "Bob Barker, reminding you, help control the pet..." "Before, before we wrap up the show, there's just something I want to say to you." "Congratulations on 35 wonderful years hosting The Price Is Right." "Well, thank you, Barney." "Thank you..." "Have your pets spayed or neutered." "Why didn't you tell him?" "Well, it's just..." "If you lived your whole life thinking one thing, it would be pretty devastating to find out that wasn't true." "I just don't think Bob could have handled it." " Bob." "Yeah." " Probably a good choice." "Anyway, on the bright side." "Happy wedding again!" "And that's the story of how Uncle Barney gave" "Lily and Marshall a dune buggy for their wedding." "Um, I thought since we're going to be apart for two whole weeks," "I would sing you your night-night song." "Night-night, Lily" "Night-night, Lily" "It's time to go to bed, oh, my silly, little Lily Time to rest your little head" "Sha-la-la-la-la" "Sha-la-la-la-la" " Come on, Ted." " No, it's weird." "You promised." "Sha-la-la-la-la" "Sha-la-la-la-la" "Sha-la-la-la-la"

"The summer I was 8 years old, 5 hours disappeared from my life." "5 hours..." "Lost." "Gone without a trace." "I remember sitting on the bench at my Little League game." "It started to rain." "But what happened after that remains a pitch black void." "Brian?" "You dork." "What the heck are you doing in there?" "You're bleeding." " It is terrible out there." " Mom!" "Hello, sweetheart." "What happened to you?" "Brian got a bloody nose hiding in the cellar." "What were you doing down there?" "Are you okay, sweetheart?" "Poor little baby." "They had me all night in that mailroom." "I didn't even know it was raining." "Hold still." "Did another mom give you a ride home?" " Goodnight." " I hope you're happy." "I knew he'd get hurt playing sports." "When I was a kid, I wasn't a star player either." "But at least I wasn't a quitter." "Sorry, dad." "Goodnight." "I told your father Little League was a stupid idea." "Hold your nose." "Mom made me quit baseball very next day." "This was when the nightmares began." "And the nosebleeds." "I wet the bed several times." "And then there were the blackouts." "I'd feel my eyes roll back in my head." "I'd crumple in the floor like a dropped puppet." "Darned thing's not even a year old yet." "Maybe it's screwed up from all the lightning last week." "Your father will be overjoyed." " What time's Dad getting home?" " Not for another hour." "Mom." "Deborah." "Come look." "It's a UFO." "It's just a weather balloon." "Look what it's doing to the TV." "It's flying over the house." "Let's go up on the roof." "No, wait!" "Children, be careful!" "That summer, those were the two things I'd never forget." "The cramped, stale darkness of the crawlspace." "And, equal in power and mystery... .. that UFO, out there somewhere... .. traveling across the universe." "The summer I was 8 years old, I came for the first time." "I was watching my Mom going at it with her current boyfriend," "Alfred, in my old swing set." "Alfred was all Marlboro man, dumb as a fucking rock, what I would years later, come to call my type." "Only stupid things ever came out of his mouth." "But seeing him like this, whimpering, crying like a helpless animal..." "I couldn't take my eyes off of him." "I'd been masturbating for years." "But it was that summer that jizz first squirted out of my dick." "Couldn't wait to show Coach." "I should start at the beginning." "My Mom signed me up for Little League." "It was Alfred's idea, so they could fuck without paying a sitter." "Are you excited?" "Coach Heider?" "Desire sledge-hammered me." "He looked like the lifeguards, cowboys and firemen" "I'd seen in the "Playgirls" my mom kept under her bed." "I didn't know what to do with my feelings." "They were like a gift I had to open in front of a crowd." " Hello." " Hello, I'm Ellen McCormick." "And this is my son, Neil." "Hello, Neil." "Honey, won't you say hello to your coach?" "Don't worry, it takes him a while to warm up to strangers." "I quickly became team star player." "Which wasn't saying much considering the other kids were all spazzes." "Our first game, I whacked a triple with bases loaded." "The crowd went fucking nuts." "But I didn't care about that." "All that mattered was it made Coach proud." "After that first victory," "Coach called my Mom to tell her he was taking the team to a movie." "Hey, big guy." "Ready to go?" "Where's everybody else?" "It's just you and me today." " Really?" " Yup." "Cool." "I picked "Blood Prom", an R-rated flick with cool gore and murders." "When this annoying blonde chick got her head chopped off, I cheered." "Then we picked up a pizza and headed back to Coach's." "Coach's house was awesome." "He had a giant TV, an Atari with Donkey Kong, Asteroids, Frogger." "All my favorite games." "You exploded." "My turn." " Sure your mom's not expecting you?" " No, she works." "She's probably got a date with Alfred afterwards." " You spend a lot of time alone." " Yes, but I kind of like it." "I just ride my bike and watch TV." "It's cool." "Shit!" "You made me mess up!" "Sorry!" "Hold on." "Come here for a sec." "Bring one of those bottles." "This might seem a little weird at first." "But I need to record my team's voices, especially my best players." "Okay?" "Take this." "Now just speak into it using your normal voice." "What should I say?" "Whatever you like." "Start with your name." "Now take a big sip of pop and belch." " Shit." " Good." " Say that again." " Shit." "Again." "Shit." "Hell!" "Damn!" "Now, look up into the camera." "Now stick your tongue out." "Make a funny face." "Good." "Open your mouth wide." "Neil, that's perfect." "July second." "We had a 7:30 game against Taco Hut." "I know you'll kick their butts tonight." "Do it for your poor hard-working mom." " Getting a ride home with Coach?" " Yeah." "You're mine and I love you and don't you ever forget it." "Boy, were you on fire tonight!" "It's the best you've ever played!" "Thanks, Coach." "Can we play more games tonight?" "Sure, but let me show you something first." "I look stupid in this one." "No." "You look perfect." "Your expression." "Like you're having a wonderful dream." "Neil, I've been thinking a lot about you this week." "I'm hungry." "Sure." "You want a pizza?" "I might have something you'd like." " What'll it be, little buddy?" " My mom never buys these things." " She says they're a waste of money." " Let's eat then." "Which one do you want?" " What are you having?" " Corn pops." "Then I'll have..." "Cocoa Krispies." "Shit." "Sorry." "Here we go." "I like you, Neil." "I like you so much." "When I really, really like someone..." ".. there's a way I show them how I feel." "Angel." "There's nothing wrong with kissing someone like this." "Don't ever let anyone tell you that it's wrong." "It happened." "That's what I told myself." "It just happened." "And after it was over, I looked down at the mess on the floor." "It was like a kaleidoscope had shattered." "And when I swallowed, the taste of Coach's tongue seared my mouth." "You liked it." "It's okay that you liked it." "Everything's gonna be okay." "Do you know him or something?" "I met Wendy when I was 10 and she was 11 and a grade ahead." "What are you doing?" " Damn." "No razor." " You're insane." "If I wasn't queer, we would have had sloppy teenage sex and contributing more fucked-up, unwanted kids to society." "But instead, she became my soul mate." "One true partner in crime." "Let's kidnap him." "His mom says we're supposed to take him home." " Where are you taking me?" " A house with lots of candy." "Goody." "Beware!" "These are the eyes of the Axe Murderer's victims." " Come on, Satan." " Hurry up, chicken." "Never much cared for Halloween, but this particular year I couldn't shake the feeling something horrible was gonna happen." "And there was nothing I could do to stop it." "Wait outside for me." "I'll be done in a minute." "You hold him while I get something." " What are we doing?" " Having fun." " What's the matter, "Satan"?" " What did you say, punk?" "Loser!" "Loser!" "Brian?" "I thought that was you." "Lie down." "Lie down, retard." " What are you doing?" " Shut up!" "Shut up, or we'll kill you." "Point the beam over here." "Open your mouth." "I said open your mouth." "Keep these in your fucking mouth." "Do what we say or I'll kill you." "I swear." "Give me the matches." "Give me the damned matches." "Shine the flashlight on him." "Neil, he's going to tattle!" "Don't worry." "There are things we can do to get him on our side." "That's it." "Just lay still for a minute." "You're my little green buddy and there's this cool thing to show you." "When I was little, a man used to do this to me." "You're really gonna like it." "There." "That's it." "That's my boy." "Wendy never looked at me quite the same after that night." "Sharing this part of myself I'd never shown anyone else..." "I knew we'd be bound together." "Forever." "I woke up not knowing where I was or what had happened to me." "Deborah said I'd been missing for over an hour." "But I couldn't remember a thing." "But I knew it was linked to the other time, when I woke up in the cellar." "And I also knew no matter how long it took... .. I had to find out what happened." "I had to find an answer to the mystery." "When I was 15, I overheard kids at school talking about a place." "A place you could find even in a hicktown like Hutchinson." "Bingo..." "Here we go." "How's it going?" "Okay." "I'm Charlie." "Wanna go for a ride?" "Sure." "You got cash?" "I'll pay 50, no higher." "You've got to be careful out here." "The cops patrol this whole area and they know what's up." "I'm in Hutchinson on business." "I supply snack foods to the local markets." "Go ahead." "Take whatever you want." "Hungry?" "We've only got an hour, so we'd better get busy." "Wait." "Let me." "Beautiful." "So, what do you like to do?" "Tell me what you want me to do." "Whatever." "You like older guys?" "Tell me." "Yeah." "That feels nice." "You are such a beautiful... .. beautiful boy." "I'm gonna come." "I'm gonna come." "I know what you're thinking." "That wasn't safe." "But we're in Kansas, thank God, not some big city full of diseases." "Plus, you're only a kid." "Maniac." "You scared me!" "Thanks for meeting me." "This better be good." "My mom'll kill me if she finds out." "I have something I wanna show you." "FRIDAYS SATURDAYS 3 TO 4 YOUNG AND WILLING" "Yeah." "So?" "That's me." "You're such a liar." "I don't believe you." " I'll prove it." " Okay." "How?" "Oh, my God, what're you..." "Put that back in your pants, exhibitionist." " Look." " No way, pervert." "Look what the guy did to me." "Are those bruises?" "Fucker gnawed on my dick like it was a candy cane!" "Didn't know he hurt me till I blew my load." "Well, you better watch out." "Next time someone might chomp the whole thing off." "Seriously." "Even Hutchinson has freaks." "You could end up dead." "Okay, "Mom"." "I wish there was a movie showing right now." "Me too." "A film about our lives." "Everything that's happened so far." "And the last scene would just be us standing right here." "Just you and me." "Yeah." "I hear something." "It's the voice of God." "I hear him." "I hear him." "Mom!" " It's about to begin." " Alright, I'm coming." " VCR on?" " I checked it twice." "It's probably going to be silly." "The commercial showed an old man... .. claiming aliens beamed him up right out of his bathtub." "If you're going to make fun, I'll just watch it by myself." "It's starting." "Tonight on "World Of Mystery"," ".. we investigate the terrifying world of UFOs." "Is it mass hysteria or something all too real?" "They kept me prisoner for hours." "They examined me like I was a frog in biology class." "And then they stuck a probe in my stomach." "I still got the scar here to prove it." "Look at that." "I always got scared anytime I watched movies about UFOs." "Even "E. T." scared me." "Poor thing." "She looks so homely and sad." "Avalyn Friesen lives in the ordinary town of Inman, Kansas." "Inman?" "That's only 30 miles away." "32 years old, she is unmarried." "Lives with her father and works as a secretary." "But there is something unusual about Avalyn." "For as long as she can remember, things have happened to her, things she cannot explain." "I'd heard about people who've experienced missing time." "Whole chunks of their lives they couldn't account for." "Under hypnotic regression," "I learned I'd been abducted more than 20 times." " Oh, please!" " Quiet." "The first time I was 6." "I was on my way home from a picnic with my grandparents." "It was dark and we got lost, driving down a dirt road." "Grandpa lost control and we went into a ditch." "There was this blinding white light." "But the aliens weren't interested in my grandparents." "They floated me up out of the car using a gravitational ray." "That's it." "I've had enough." "I'm gonna get some ice cream." "Want some?" "No, thanks." "I remember lying on a table." "It was cold, smooth and shiny." "The aliens surrounded me." "They were bald." "With marshmallowy heads and tiny arms." "But the worst part was their eyes." "The only way I can describe them is big, black diamonds, all liquidy and jelly-ish." "I'm finally getting out of this fucking nowhere town!" "You better let me know the second you're settled." "Or else." "You better come." "Or else." "New York City." "You're so lucky!" "Hey, assface." "What're you gawking at?" "Faggots!" "Shit, go, go, go!" "Fuck you!" "Remember the guy I told you?" "White Camaro?" "That's him." "Parked by those trees." "I've fucked every john in this park." "Except for White Camaro." "So it's time for you two to get lost." "Stop scaring my business away." "You want us to pick you up later?" "If you want." "I'll be done by 7." "We'll meet you." "I gotta get home and start packing." "Alright." "Call me tonight." "See you later." " You'd better be careful." " Of what?" "I'm serious, you're not in Modesto anymore." "I see the way you look at him." "He's so beautiful." "I can't help it." "He's like a god." "You don't have to tell me, I was infatuated with him too once." "But I know all Neil's secrets and there's shit you don't want to know." "Once I'm gone, you'll be all Neil has and you have to understand one thing." "Where normal people have a heart," "Neil McCormick's has a bottomless black hole." "And if you don't watch out, you can fall in and get lost forever." " Brian, you home?" " Yeah, Mom." "In here." "No class today?" "I've got English Comp discussion group at 7:30." "You have mail." "Looks like one from your sister." "And one from A. Friesen?" "I can't believe she wrote me back." " Who?" " Avalyn Friesen." "The woman on TV." "She didn't have to dump a whole gallon of perfume on it." "What did she say?" "She wants me to visit her in Inman." "Thanks for the ride, Preston." "Later." "You just missed it, sweetie." "This little old lady just won both showcases." " What did she get?" " She got a trip to Scotland..." "A beautiful living room set." "A brand new car." "I can't remember the name of it but it cost over 27 grand." "Are you wearing cologne?" "Is work okay?" "It's the pits." "When is our ship gonna come in, baby?" "Soon, Ma." "Soon." "Oh, Neil, don't forget." "Tomorrow's my date." "That hot Italian." "The guy who always comes through my checkout lane." "I'll be at work." "The last tournament of the season." "Vincenzo." "Patches!" "Patches, down." "Sorry, she gets a little excited." "Hi, you must be Brian." "I'm Avalyn, obviously." "Dad?" "It's okay, Daddy." "It's that young man I was telling you about." "Don't mind him." "He's just a little wary of strangers." "I'm so glad you're here." "Come on." "It isn't showy, but it's home." "Here, have a seat." "I was in the middle of lunch." "I hope you don't mind." "No, go ahead." "I ate earlier." "So, you saw the show?" "Several times, I videotaped it." "They left some stuff out, but they got the major points across." "I think I was taken too." "You mentioned that in your letter." "You're where I was a few years ago, just starting to remember." "There are many of us and we need to know what happened." "So you think that's what happened to me." "Considering about the missing time and..." "I'm sure of it." "Feel like going on a walk?" "What's that you're carrying?" "It's a Dream Journal." "I keep a log of all my dreams." "Whatever bits and pieces I can recall at least." "I feel like it's slowly helping me remember." "That's a really good idea." "Your subconscious is where all your memories are buried." "For you and me and people like us almost every single thing we do stems from our being abducted." "I want to show you something they wouldn't allow on TV." "I've been tagged." "Part of their experiments." "Touch it." "When I was taken, my leg was bleeding, but I didn't remember being cut." "Under hypnosis I discovered that's where they implanted the tracking device." "Now everything I do, they know." "In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they were spying on us right now." "When I was found that night, my nose was bleeding." "The old up-the-nose trick, so the scar can't be seen." "Don't forget to write." "Don't you forget what I told you." "You better come see me soon, asshole." "I will." "I will." "Stay out of trouble, you two." "Bye." "I can't believe it's so late." "My mom's gonna worry." "You still live with your mom?" "My dad moved out 7 years ago." " I don't see him much." " Read me one of your dreams." "I just scribble them out in the middle of the night." " Sometimes I can barely read them." " That's okay." "This is from 2 nights ago." ""There's a blue light." "I'm in my Little League uniform and a tall alien is hovering over me." "Someone else is with me." "Another boy." "Also in uniform." "A Panther?"" "That was the name of my baseball team." "Let's see..." ""The alien has big black eyes." "He's touching my face." "I want to cry out for help, but... .. I can't."" "You're on your way to uncovering the truth." "Think of yourself as a detective." "Concentrate on the other boy in your dreams, he could help you find the answers you're looking for." "Two outs." "Third baseman Jackson up with Hinton on deck." "Jesus." "Check out that Jackson." "Hubba hubba." "Are you joking?" "I'd fuck him for free." "Please return all foul balls to press box, thank you." "You don't think Jackson's hot?" "Dude, he's fat and bald!" "Different folks, different strokes." "My Daddy hit this." "Well, come here." "Collect your prize." "Thank you so much." "One second." "What will it be, big guy?" "Cash or bubbles?" "You can't decide." "Alright, come on, hold out your hand." " Thanks!" " You're welcome." "See you later." "What?" "When kids do good, you gotta reward them." "Christ, it's Hinton, a.k.a. Ass of the Gods." "I am so fucking wasted!" "Oh, shit!" "Where's your mom?" "She's probably out with her new boyfriend, Vincenzo." "I've got a wicked headache." " Do you have any pot?" " Yeah." "Come on." "Here." "Knock yourself out." "There's a porno in the VCR if you wanna jack off." "Thanks." "You got a lighter?" "Yeah." "Here." " You like that?" " It tickles a little." "That feels good, doesn't it, Neil?" "Should we put the blanket over our heads like last time?" "Here we go." "Find what you were looking for?" " Yeah." "Thanks a lot." " Glad I could help out." "I used to write for my school paper too." "This will really make a big difference to my article." " Maybe you'll win a Pulitzer Prize." " Maybe." "Just let me know if there's anything else you need." "Thanks so much." "You done already?" "I'm on kind of a tight deadline." "Well, good luck." "That's two outs." "Garfield the batter, Heim on deck." "Scoot your chair back a little further." "That's better." "Wait." "Hold on a sec." "The score is Hutchinson First National Bank, 3..." "Wichita Coleman Industries, 0." "Okay." "Go on." " Where have you been?" " Sorry." "I should've called." "I didn't realize the time." " Well, your dinner's cold as ice." " That's okay." "Brian, what's going on?" "You've been acting so strangely." " Disappearing for hours." " It's just school, Mom." " College is different." " Did you ever call your father back?" "I've been busy." "I'll get it." "You finish your dinner." "He's eating his supper right now." " Who is it?" " It's that UFO woman." "I'll get it in the hall." "Got it." "I was just going to call you." "I found a photo of the boy." "The one from my dreams." "That's amazing." "What are you doing right now?" "Nothing." "I need to show you something." "Can you come out here?" "Sure." " Hi, honey." "How was work?" " Fuck you." "I'm so fucking sick of this stinking little buttcrack of a town!" "Patches, shhh, quiet!" "You'll wake Daddy." " Thanks for coming." " No problem." "I stole this from the Chamber of Commerce." "That's him." "The boy from my dreams." "Look at his face." "You can tell he knows something." "What are you doing?" "Start looking for him tomorrow." "Maybe he still lives in Hutchinson." "I have to show you something only you would understand." "I've fucked every single guy and his ugly uncle in this podunk town." "Twice." "You want one?" "One of us has to drive." "I got a postcard from Wendy." "I think she's mad at me because I owe her 3 letters." "Yeah, her last P.S. is "Tell Fuckface to write me."" "So you wanna hear what she says?" ""Hey ass." "So New York is insane and crazy in the best possible way."" "Pardon me." "Can we help you?" "I was wondering if I might buy you boys a drink." "Fuck off." "You heard me, fag." "Fuck... off." "Stuck-up little pricks." "Harsh." "Wasn't he kinda your type?" "No, I hate when they look like Tarzan and sound like Jane." "Let's get out of this shithole." "But we just got here?" "Patches, get away from there!" "Farmers have been finding mutilated cattle around here for years." "I told "World of Mystery", but they conveniently edited it out." "Dad says it's "Satan worshipers" going around chopping up cows." "Come here." "Let me see your hand." "Feel that?" "Sex organs." "They're gone." "The aliens experiment on cows because the poor things are so defenseless." "Us, on the other hand, they can't kill us." "They just leave behind hidden memories." "Which in a way is almost worse." "Notice anything else strange?" "There's no blood." "They took that, too." "Here we go." "Oh, my God." "Brian!" "Tell him you like it." "Are you okay?" "Oh, God." "Neil." "What are you doing?" "Come on." "It's 2:30 in the morning." "You called me your fucking... .. angel." "Wendy's going to meet you at the station?" "I don't want you getting lost in that crazy city." " You don't have to worry, okay?" " Call me the minute you arrive." "Promise me, Neil." "We should've at least gotten you a decent hair cut." "I gotta take a piss." "We'll be right back." " What's the matter?" " I don't know." "My fucking dick itches like motherfucking fuck!" "What do you want me to do about it?" "Just look down there." "Preston, come on, help me out here." "What's wrong with me?" "Dude." "You've got crabs." "I mean, it's no big, man." "You just go to the drug store and get this stuff called "Rid"." "You'd better be playing safe." "I stay in control." "Honey, your bus is boarding." "Alright." "My baby." "You're all grown up." "You'll be careful?" "Yeah, I will." "You're mine and I love you." "Don't you ever forget it." "Come on." "I'll buy you Dairy Queen." "So what now that Neil's gone?" " I'll kill myself." " Eric, that is not funny." "Well, I start Community College next week." "Really?" "That's so wonderful." "Pathetic is more like it." "You can always come over even without Neil around." "Thanks, Mrs. M. I may just take you up on that." "You better." "Who the hell is that?" "Incognito Boy Scout?" "Can I help you?" " Is this your house?" " Yes." "Sorry to bother you, I got your address out of the phonebook." "I've been checking every McCormick in Hutchinson and you're the last one." "Anyway, I don't mean to babble..." "What do you want?" " I'm looking for an N. McCormick." " Are you fbi?" "Sorry honey, you are shit outta luck." "You mean there's no N. McCormick living here?" "I mean we just put him on a bus headed for New York City." "I'm Neil's friend, Eric, and this is his Mom." "His name is Neil." "Yeah." "I'm Brian." "Brian Lackey." "So you still haven't written." "Big surprise." "But Wendy says you're doing okay, which is cool." "I've been wanting to tell you about this strange guy I met 3 weeks ago." "No, we're not fucking." "Get your mind out of the gutter." "He's not even gay, I don't think." "In fact, his vibe is kind of weirdly asexual." "His name is Brian Lackey." "He lives in Little River and, like yours truly, attends Loser Community College." "Anyway, the day you left, your mom and I found him on your doorstep, looking for you." "He says you played Little League together 10 years ago." "He was the worst player on the team," "He's full of questions about you." "But I haven't told him much, i.e. about your "line of work"." "I did say you were queer like me, I figured you wouldn't care." "But now, are you ready for the good part?" "He thinks that when you were little, you were both abducted by aliens." "How brilliant is that?" "But he was completely serious." "You should've seen the look in his eyes." "So, what's the story, dude?" "Were you abducted by a UFO or what?" "P.S. Are your crabs gone yet?"" "Yeah?" " You have a visitor." " Hi Brian." "I was in the neighborhood and I thought I'd stop by." "I'll be in the front room if you need me." "Thanks, Mom." "Didn't care for that film." "That, I didn't see." "Your Mom doesn't like me very much." "She thinks I'm trying to steal you away." "Any luck in your search for "N. McCormick"?" "I met his mom and his best friend, but he's in New York right now." "New York." "Really?" "Here." "Sit down." "Had any more of those dreams?" "Yeah." "But they seem to be slowly evolving." "And maybe it's just because I've been spending time with Eric," "Neil's friend." "But it's becoming clearer and clearer that he... .. Neil that is, is a key figure in all this." "Like he was there with me the night it all happened." "I can't." "Don't." "No." "I can't." " I can't." " It's okay." " No." "No." "Don't." " It'll feel good." "Don't!" " I'm sorry." " You better go." " Please." " I'm sorry, Brian." "I pay 120." "Not a cent more." "Okay." "Shall we?" "Fuck me!" "Fuck me up the ass with your hot, teenaged cock!" "Wait!" "What the fuck are you doing?" "Okay." "Whatever." "I'll put it on for you." "There." "Well, come on, stud." "We're on the clock here." "We're not in Kansas anymore, Neil." "You have got to be so careful." " I know." " Don't "I know" me, Neil McCormick." "This is New York City." "You do the wrong thing with the wrong person and you die." "Period." "End of story." "Just promise me you'll be safe." "Here." "Are these the only kinds of movies you watch?" "Why?" "You don't like it?" "No, it's cool." "So, has Neil gotten back to you yet?" "Let me explain The Universe of Neil McCormick." "He's like a planet, Saturn, say." "And we're all like little moons orbiting around." "Now, do planets write letters?" "But I do know he'll be in Hutchinson for Christmas." "His mom told me she sent him a ticket to fly home." "So I'll introduce you then." " Yeah?" " How about a study break?" "Thanks, Mrs. Lackey." "Thanks, Mom." "It's 11:30." "If it's Avalyn..." "tell her I'm not here." "No, I'm sorry, Avalyn, he's out with his friends." "No problem." " I thought you kinda liked her." " I just..." "I don't know." "I think I just need a little space from her right now." "I always thought she was a freak anyway." "I'm off to bed." "Good night, boys." "I'm Zeke." "From L.A." "What are you doing in New York City?" "That's a Vermeer." "Well, it's sort of a Vermeer." "You are exquisite." "I guess it's my turn, huh?" "Hope..." "these don't frighten you too much." "They have a habit of popping up in the most inopportune places." "I know." "Don't be worried." "This is gonna be the safest encounter you've ever had." "If you could just rub my back." "Really, I need to be touched." "Make me happy." "You were 100 percent safe, right?" "Yeah." "I told you I just jerked off, he watched from across the room." "It was the first time in my life I'm bothered by it." "Maybe you should try and find another safer way to make money." "Like everyone else." "Yeah, maybe." "You are the only one I've ever told." "I know." "I never told Eric, or told my Mom." "I know some people might think it's fucked up, or terrible." "But what happened that summer is a huge part of me." "No one ever made me feel that way, before or since." "Like I..." "I was special." "Neil, you were 8 years old." "Yeah, but he really loved me." "I mean, there were other kids sometimes, but..." "I was his prize." "I was his one true love." "Happy birthday." "You didn't have to get me anything." "It's just a little something I picked out." "Cool." "I thought it'd go great with your hair color." "It's so cool." "Thanks." "You alright?" "I'm drunk." "I've never been drunk in my life." "I'm corrupting you." "At last!" "That's pretty good." "Yeah, sure." "No, really." "You have definite artistic talent, my boy." "That's an interesting touch." "What's the "deep meaning" behind the baseball cleats?" "I have no idea." " How was work?" " Fucking boring." " You need a hand?" " Sure." "I've got news for you." " Well, me too." " Okay." "You first." "Look what my Mom sent me today." "She wants me to come home for Christmas." "Your mom is the coolest." " Mine would never do that for me." " That's weird." "I hate Hutchinson more than anything." "But I'm kind of looking forward to going back, just for a short visit." " Plus you get to see Eric." " Yeah." "So what's your news?" "I think I found you a job." "What?" "I was talking to this friend at work about you." "It's only minimum wage at a stupid sandwich place, but..." " But?" " You're not into it, it's cool." "No, tell me more about it." " Really?" " I want to hear more about it." " You do?" " Yeah." "You sure you're gonna be okay?" "I'm just glad my Mom's working late." "Thanks for everything." "This has been the best birthday ever." "You're welcome." "Shit." "Who's that?" "It's my Dad." "Dad?" "Son." "I caught you." "Your Mother said she didn't know whether you'd be home or not." "Happy Birthday." "What are you doing here?" "I'm not allowed to wish my son a happy birthday?" "Dad, I haven't seen you for what, 2 years?" "Well, maybe if you called back..." "Maybe I don't want to call back." "Maybe I just want you to leave me alone." "Brian, don't be like this." "I drove all this way." "Just to see how you're doing." "Well, let me tell you what I want to know." "Something happened to me when I was little." "Do you know what I'm talking about?" "When I woke up bleeding in the cellar?" "Where were you that night?" "God, I can tell you don't even remember!" " You're drunk." " Quit avoiding the subject!" "I was bleeding, I kept passing out." "I wet my fucking bed and you never asked why!" "And what about that Halloween?" "Something happened to me both those nights!" "What do you know about it?" "Tell me!" "I'm sorry, Brian." "I..." "I can't help you." "May I help you?" " Redecorating?" " Sort of." " How have you been?" " Good." " How's Berkeley?" " Hold on, you two." "Let's continue this in the front room over the peanut-butter peach pie I baked." " Good to see you, little brother." " You too." "Need a lift?" "Sure." " Where we going?" " My place." "Don't worry, I'll pay." " It's Christmas Eve tomorrow." " No more talking." " Where are we?" " Brighton Beach." "Bedroom's this way." "Do it." "Again." "Strip." "Open wide and suck it, slut." "What are you waiting for, slut?" "Suck it!" "You like that, don't you, slut?" "Take it deep." "Moan for me." "Slut knows what's coming next." " I'm giving slut what he wants..." " There're some things I don't do." "Wait." "I gotta take a piss." "I'll be right back." "You're getting fucked, slut, whether you like it or not." "Slut!" "Are you ready?" "Here it comes." "Mom." "Today is the day." " Now where are you off to?" " I'm going out with Eric." "You don't want to stay and talk with your sister a while?" " I'll be back soon." " Don't be late, young man." "Christmas Eve dinner's at 6 sharp." "Here we are." " Do I look okay?" " Okay's a relative term." "I'm kidding." "You look fine." " Excited?" " Yes." "And nervous." "Don't worry." "I'm sure you guys will hit it off." "I hope you're right." " Oh, hi, Eric." " Mrs. M., Merry Christmas." " You remember Brian." " Of course I do." " Hi, Brian." " Merry Christmas." " So where's the Man of the Hour?" " I was going to call you." " What happened?" " There's been an accident." "Neil got mugged on the way to the airport." "Is he okay?" "He's going to be fine." "He's asleep in his room." " Maybe we should come back tomorrow." " Maybe." "Or you stay if you'd like, have some cookies and see if he's..." "Honey, you're up." "The fuck are you staring at, Preston?" "Brian says you both were in Little League together." "So how long has it been since you two last saw each other?" "10 years... .. 5 months and 7 days." "You must have a lot of catching up to do." "Turn right off Main by the fairgrounds." " So what the fuck happened?" " Long story." "I'll tell you later." "Just drive for now." "It's nice to see New York hasn't hardened you one bit..." "So you're the legendary Brian." " We have a lot in common, don't we?" " I think so." "Make a left at the next stop sign." "Is this starting to look familiar?" "Pick us up in a half hour." "You ready?" "Blue." "No one's home." "Let's go round back." "We have to get in." "I know a way here." "Voilà." "You were the best player on the team, weren't you?" "That's what he always told me." "Help." "This was his bedroom." "At least the ceiling's still the same." "I used to get lost for hours staring at all the patterns." "Whirls, speckly sparkly things." "Come on." "What's up with these people?" "He used to keep these things stocked." "This is it, right?" "Why now?" "Why did you search me out?" "I'm tired of it." "I want to dream about something else for a change." ""Away in a Manger"..." "It took till I actually laid eyes on you today to remember you." "When Eric wrote me, I only got the vaguest picture in my head." "Like a staticky TV." "Same here." "But seeing you here... .. in this room..." "I feel like he's watching us right now." "I have no idea what happened to him." "After that summer, he just disappeared." "I don't know if he's even alive or what." "Maybe it's his ghost watching us." "Tell me everything you can." "I was his favorite." "Out of everyone, he picked me." "I know it sounds kind of weird, but... .. when it first started happening..." "I felt honored." "Go on." "This is where the big TV was, all the cool video games." "That's the kitchen." "The first time happened there..." "It lasted that whole summer." "Just me and him." "I saw him one other time." "On Halloween, a couple years later." "I was lost." "He said my name." "Brian?" "Brian?" "I thought that was you." "The game had just started." "I was sitting on the bench as always." "It started to rain..." "Sprinkles at first, then a downpour." "The ump called the game." "And no one came to pick you up." "My Mom was working and my Dad, who knows." "Everyone else drove off with their parents." "I was left there all alone." "Then you were in the dugout with me and you said..." "We'll take you home." "And we got in Coach's station wagon, remember?" "He brought us here." "It's alright, Brian." "We're going to have a little fun." "And he didn't want you in the bedroom because that was just for us." "So it all happened here, in this room." "Keep going." "Don't stop until you've told me everything." "When there was another boy, it was always the same." "The Coach used me as a prop to pull you in." "He'd undress me and and I had to make it seem fun." "Like it was a really cool game." "Go ahead, show him, Neil." "Alright, here are the rules." "I kiss you, then you kiss me back." "And then it's his turn." "Are you ready?" "Here we go." "My God..." "You want me to stop?" "So I put my tongue in your mouth, getting it all wet and shiny." "Then it was his turn." "Watching his big lips sucking your face," "I remember thinking he's going to swallow his head whole." "So, we took off your clothes and you made this whimpering puppy sound that Coach always loved." "Coach and me had this thing where he would wrap his mouth around my dick and balls." "He did that to me and I tried to do it to you but couldn't because my mouth was too small." "Then, he went down on you" "for what seemed like a really long time." "Now your eyes were closed mostly but every now and then they would flutter open, and had this glassy, faraway look." "And then..." "I leaned in and whispered..." "It's fun right?" "Tell him you like it." "We're almost finished." "Can you be able...?" "Yeah." "Then we played the 5 dollar game." "When Coach would ask me to do things, crazy sex things." "And if I could do them, he'd give me a 5 dollar bill." "It's okay." "Go ahead, Neil." "He made us fist him." "Do you know what that is?" "I went first, of course." "And on that night, the 5 dollars was mine if I could ram my fist up his ass all the way to the elbow." "And goddamn it, I did it." "I'll never forget how it felt." "It felt like his body was trying to suck me into it." "Devour me." "And then I did it too." "And then we drove you back to Little River and left you in your driveway." "The End." "And my nose was bleeding." "How did that happen?" "When it was over and we were getting you dressed, your face looked like you'd been erased." "And you were just empty inside." "And you just fell." "Face first on the floor." "And when we pulled you up, your nose was bleeding." "Like this?" "Like this?" "Stop." " No one's even home." " No, someone's there." " I can see them." " Where?" " I don't see anything." " Now I see them too." "What's going on?" "I think someone's in there." "And as we sat there listening to the carolers," "I wanted to tell Brian it was over and everything would be okay." "But that was a lie." "Plus I couldn't speak anyway." "I wished there's some way for us to go back and undo the past." "But there wasn't." "There was nothing we could do." "So I just stayed silent and tried to telepathically communicate how sorry I was about what had happened." "I thought of all the sadness and suffering in the world." "And made me want to escape." "I wished with all my heart we could just leave this world behind." "Rise like two angels in the night and magically... .. disappear." "Subtitles:" "Laser S. Film s.r.l." " Rome"

"Oh, America." "I wish I could tell you that this was still America, but I've come to realize that you can't have a country without people." "And there are no people here." "No!" "No!" "Go back..." "Fuck!" "Aah!" "No, my friends." "This is now the United States of Zombieland." "It's amazing how quickly things can go from bad to total shit storm." "And why am I alive when everyone around me has turned to meat?" "It's because of my list of rules." "Rule number one for surviving Zombieland:" "Cardio." "Fuck!" "When the virus struck, for obvious reasons, the first ones to go were the fatties." "Poor fat bastard." "But as the infection spread and the chaos grew, it wasn't enough to just be fast on your feet." "You had to get a gun and learn how to use it." "Which leads me to my second rule:" "The Double Tap." "In those moments when you're not sure the undead are really "dead" dead, don't get all stingy with your bullets." "I mean, one more clean shot to the head," "And this lady could have avoided becoming a human Happy Meal." "Woulda, coulda, shoulda." "Wasn't long before the zombies began to get clever." "When you're at your most vulnerable, somehow they could just smell it." "Can't a guy take a dumper in peace?" "Don't let them catch you with your pants down." "Rule number three:" "Beware of bathrooms." "As zombies began to outnumber humans, well, that's when you had to cut all emotional ties." "If the girls in your neighborhood are now fucked-up little monsters," "Well, maybe it's time to stop driving carpool." "You had to focus on your own survival, which leads to rule number four." "Pretty basic." "Fasten your seat belts." "It's gonna be a bumpy ride." "That guy down there is me." "I'm in Garland, Texas." "And it may look like zombies destroyed it, but that's actually just Garland." "It's been two months since patient zero took a bite of a contaminated burger at a Gas N' Gulp." "Just two months, and I might be the last non-cannibal freak in the country." "I may seem like an unlikely survivor, with all my phobias and irritable-bowel syndrome, but I had the advantage of never having any friends or any close family." "I survive because I play it safe and follow the rules." "My rules." "Shit." "Of course." "Motherfucker." "Oh." "On the bright side, I had found a place to go number two." "Another rule to surviving Zombieland:" "Travel light." "And I don't mean just luggage." "I've always been kind of a loner." "I avoided people like they were zombies even before they were zombies." "Now that they are all zombies, I kind of miss people." "So I'm on my way from my college dorm in Austin, Texas to Columbus, Ohio, where I'm hoping my parents are still alive." "Even though we were never really close, it would be nice to see a familiar face, or any face, that doesn't have blood dripping from its lips and flesh between its teeth." "Thank you." "Ah." " What are you looking for?" " Nothing." "I just, uh..." "I just have this list." "No one back there but my duffel bag." "Uh..." "What's your name?" "Stop." "No names." "Keeps us from getting too familiar." "You almost knocked over your alcohol with your knife." "Um..." "Oh." " That's okay, you don't have to..." " So where you headed?" "Uh..." "Columbus." "You?" "Tallahassee." "Mm." "Uh..." "No, one for me." "One and done, I always say." "I said that once." "You know, Tallahassee and Columbus are both, uh, east." "So?" "So, Tallahassee, you wanna stick together?" " Least for a while?" " Here's the deal, Columbus." "Uh..." "I'm not easy to get along with, and I'm sensing you're a bit of a bitch," "so I give this relationship to about Texarkana." "Really?" "Yeah." "You'll take me as far as Texarkana." "You're a peppy little spit-fuck, aren't you?" "You might wanna buckle up for safety." "I can tell already you are gonna get on my nerves." "Even though teaming up wasn't my style," "I figured I'd be safer with Tallahassee." "You see, he was in the ass-kicking business, and..." "Business is good." "It became quickly apparent, however, that he did have one weakness." "What are we doing here?" "Well, take a look." "It's a goddamn Hostess truck." "Yeah, I see that, a Hostess truck." "So what?" "I could use a Twinkie." " You coming?" " Uh..." "Yes." "Yeah." "One second." " Are you fucking with me?" " Uh..." "No." "You should actually limber up as well." "Especially if we are going down that hill." "It is very important." "I don't believe in it." "You ever see a lion limber up before it takes down a gazelle?" "Hmm." " Sno Balls?" " Yeah." "Sno Balls?" "Where's the fucking Twinkies?" "I like Sno Balls." "I hate coconut." "Not the taste, consistency." "Fresh." "Oh, this Twinkie thing, it ain't over yet." "Hey, this may be a bad time, but I gotta take the Browns to the Super Bowl." " Really?" " Really." "I know, again, so soon?" "What can I say?" "I have a case of, uh, chronic anxiety." "Truth is, I was always kind of phobic." "I found lots of things disturbing." "Like undertow or department store Santas." "Being alone with a baby." "But the thing I fear more than anything, yes, even more than zombies, fucking clowns." "When you're afraid of everything that's out there, you quit going out there, which is what happened to me before Zombieland." "Friday night, third straight week indoors." ""World of Warcraft", leaning tower of pizza boxes," "Code Red Mountain Dew." "Pride, nowhere." "Dignity, long gone." "Virginity, totally justifiable to speculate on." "Smooth." "My whole life, all I'd ever wanted was to find a girl, and fall in love, bring her home to meet the folks." "Then again, since my folks are a couple of paranoid shut-ins like me, maybe this girl could bring me home to her folks." "And then I'd finally be a member of a cool, functional family." "408." "Please, is anyone home?" "Please, it's an emergency." "I don't usually unlock my door to the sounds of panic, but my neighbor 406 is insanely hot." "Okay, okay." "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you." "Nice to meet you." "Here." "There you go." " Mountain Dew?" " Yeah." "Code Red." "And here's some Golden Grahams." "The, uh, Ziploc bag keeps them crisp." "Okay." "Keep that there." "So, um, tell me what happened." "Uh..." "He was homeless and..." "And..." "And sick." "And I was walking home from the bar, talking on my phone, and then he just came sprinting towards me." "I mean, not running, sprinting." "And..." "And I thought, you know, like, maybe he was running from someone, or after someone, but last time I saw he was still out there going crazy." "Drugs, maybe?" "I didn't even tell you the worst part." "Yeah?" "He tried to bite me." " You're right, that's the worst part." " I'm sorry." "I'm just so scared." "No, no, no, you should be scared." "A homeless man just tried to eat you." "That's the right kind of scared." "That's reasonable scared." "I get scared for things that don't make sense, like clowns with red noses, or, like, the rags they use to wipe down tables when you finish eating at a chain restaurant." "Really?" "Look, the point is I am here for you, okay?" "And as long as you are by my side, I am not leaving this apartment." "Do you mind if I just close my eyes for a minute?" "No, of course." "Of course." " Thank you." " Okay." "Set aside the feverish, homeless cannibal," "I'm living the dream." "I had always, my whole life, wanted to brush a girl's hair over her ear." " Good night." " Good night." "Oh, my God." "Are you okay?" "Whoa, whoa, whoa!" "Okay, okay, okay." "Stop, stop, stop." "What are you doing?" "Look, stay back, 406, okay?" "I don't wanna hurt you, but," "Shit." "Oh, my God, I'm so fucking sorry." "You see, you just can't trust anyone." "The first time I let a girl into my life and she tries to eat me." "Please." "Listen to me." "406." "If you're in there, you're just sick." "Okay?" "That was my first brush with the plague of the 21 st century." "Remember mad cow disease?" "Well, mad cow became mad person became mad zombie." "It's a fast-acting virus that left you with a swollen brain, a raging fever, that made you hateful, violent, and gave you a really, really bad case of the munchies." "All right, you steer, I'll push." "Uh..." "Okay." "Okay." "I've heard there's a place that's untouched by this crap." "Back east, yeah?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "You heard the same thing?" "Out west, we hear it's back east." "Back east, they hear it's out west." "It's all just nonsense." "You know, you're like a penguin on the North Pole who hears the South Pole is really nice this time of year." "There are no penguins on the North Pole." "You wanna feel how hard I can punch?" "So, what do you think?" "Wait, the last time I laid some pipe?" "Last time you went 20 toes, put Percy in the playpen?" "Who's Percy?" "Wallpapered the closet, passed the gravy." " Went heels to Jesus." " Oh." "Oh, made love." "Well, just sex." "Uh..." "Uh..." "Three weeks ago." "Yeah." "In the back of an abandoned FedEx truck." " Shut up." " No, no, I was headed east." "She, west." "And we took shelter in the back of the truck." " It was full of undelivered packages." " What was her name?" "Beverly." "Beverly Hills." "You dog." "So, uh, what about you?" "Me?" "I..." "I..." "Aye, aye, aye." "Oh, my God." "It makes you sick." "You know, it makes you sad, it makes you..." "It makes you think if you can go back to the way things were right now, you know, you'd be..." "You'd be out in the backyard, you know, trying to catch fireflies." "And instead this." " I mean, it makes you..." " Hungry." "I'm worried about you." "Look, whatever you have waiting for you in Columbus," "I promise you it ain't prettier than our friend here enjoying her Manwich." "Tallahassee had a sick sense of humor when it came to zombies." "Zombies aren't the most lovable creatures, but he really hated them." "The only thing he was more obsessed with than killing zombies, was finding a Twinkie." "Something about a Twinkie reminded him of a time not so long ago, when things were simple and not so fucking psychotic." "It was like if he got a taste of that comforting childhood treat, the world would become innocent again, and everything would return to normal." "What, are you prospecting?" "Jesus Christ." "You are a dangerous man." "You're gonna risk our lives for a Twinkie?" "There is a box of Twinkies in that grocery store." "Not just any box of Twinkies." "The last box of Twinkies that anyone will enjoy in the whole universe." "Believe it or not, Twinkies have an expiration date." "Someday very soon, life's little Twinkie gauge is gonna go empty." "Time to nut up or shut up." "When Tallahassee goes Hulk on a zombie, he sets the standard for not-to-be-fucked-with." "No fear, nothing to lose." "What can I say?" "It's like..." "It's like art." "You got a pretty mouth." "Don't swing, don't swing." "Swing." " Thank you." " You owe me." "Yeah." "You're incredible." " I know." " Yeah." "Twinkie, Twinkie, Twinkie, Twinkie." "Whoa, whoa." "Big Hoss." "Come here, big fella." "Just gonna take a little off the top." "Wow, these fellas really let themselves go." "And they're so fat." "I think we should probably just keep going." "All I could think of was, what are the odds?" "Another marriageable woman to bring home to the folks." "Come quick." "Someone's ear is in danger of having hair brushed over it." "Hey." "I'll catch up." "Rule number 22:" "When in doubt, know your way out." "They're sisters." "The, uh, little one's been bitten." "Act normal." "Try not to freak her out." "Yeah." "Columbus, Wichita, Little Rock." "So you did all this for a Twinkie?" "No, no, no, he did." "I'm just kind of like a Sancho Panza character." "Look, um, I don't think she has long." "Yeah, I know." "I know, and she knows." "We're just looking for a way out." "No, no, no, no." "She's just a little girl." "Don't talk about me like I'm not here." "Right, sorry." "Um..." "Look, I know that you're really sick." "Whoa." "But, uh, your sister wants me to..." "It's not her decision, okay?" "It's mine." "I made her promise." "We already said goodbye, but, um, we didn't have a gun." " We don't know that there's no cure." " You're just gutless!" "Give him the gun." "Wait, wait, wait." "I'll do it." " I love you." " I love you too." "You need some help?" "Now that you mention it, we'll take your weapons, your car keys, your ammunition." " And if you've got it, sugarless gum." " What the fuck?" "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Wait, why are you guys doing this?" "Better you make the mistake of trusting us than us make the mistake of trusting you." "The first hot girl in 1000 miles shows up, makes me feel like an idiot, steals my double-barrel and then says I'm the one that can't be trusted." "Nice going, genius." "You're the one that gave her the gun." "Those guys were dumb." "Avoid the vanity mirror." "Relax, okay?" "I just passed for a zombie." " What I'd give for a shower..." " Do not say S-H-O-W-E-R, okay?" "Let's just get where we're going." " So do you think it's true?" " Is what true?" "You know, about Pacific Playland?" "Totally zombie-free." "Only place west of Waco." "Trust me." "So he's on one of these serious Tour de France bikes..." "You know, with, like, the toeholds, right?" "And he's pedaling, and the zombie's head is, like, caught in the gear." "You know, with the hair in the chain just, like, going around." "Ho." "Very cool." "But zombie kill of the week?" "No, sir." "I saw this construction worker." "I shit you not, he is on a steamroller, and a zombie goes down in front of him." "You ever roll a tube of toothpaste up from the bottom?" "Yeah." "I always roll it up from the bottom." "Well, the zombie's head is the cap." "Are you one of these guys that tries to one-up everybody else's story?" "No." "I knew a guy way worse at that than me." "All right, let's just try to find a car." "Oh, which reminds me," "I never had headaches like this till your ass came onboard." "I mean, do what you want with a man, but do not fuck with his Cadillac." "Hey, there's a nice minivan." "Oh, you know something?" "That is nice." "That's a beautiful van." "Tallahassee believes you have to blow off steam in Zombieland or else you lose what's left of your mind." "If it makes him happy and keeps him from using that crowbar on me, then I say, "Hey, go ape shit."" "I want my Caddy back!" "Stupid little bitches!" "Oh, I think I pulled something." "Think the two of us are smart enough to come up with a con like that?" "You hesitated." "Is it better to be smart or lucky?" "Look at what we got here." "Ho, ho, ho, ho." "Come on." " That's nice." " Smell the finger?" "Yes." "Thank God for rednecks." "This is a really big truck and these are really big guns." "Take your time." "You know, they say, "He who seeks revenge should remember to dig two graves."" "Right." "Two graves." "One for the big chick, one for the little chick." "You are scary happy." "Come on, why don't we just forget about those girls and head home?" "Oh, you want to talk about home?" "For me, home was a puppy named Buck." "Cutest dog ever." "All those fucking zombies." "I lost him." "And there ain't no getting him back, so, uh, I'm looking for a new home." "Tomorrow, I may be skinny-dipping in the Yellowstone River, or swinging from the chandeliers in the Playboy Mansion, but today, a Vortec six-fucking-liter V8, a box full of hollow points, and, Lord willing, a GD Twinkie." "Gotta enjoy the little things." "I hate to give credit to anyone who looks like Yosemite Sam, but I'm writing it down." "Rule number 32:" "Enjoy the little things." "Knowing them, it's a trap." "Wait here." "Drive down if I signal." "You're not gonna shoot them, are you?" "Not unless they shoot at me." "Oh, let's hope they shoot at me." "Looks like they hoofed it." "Probably headed west." "Just drive slow, keep your eyes peeled." "Sure." " They're in the back, aren't they?" " Just me." "Oh." "I'm really sorry." "She was like a crouching tiger." "You got taken hostage by a 12-year-old?" "Girls mature faster than boys." "She's way ahead of where I was at that age." "Twelve's the new 20." "Gun, please." "Like you would ever use that thing." "Don't kill me with my own gun!" "All those violent video games." " Yeah." " Thank you." " Now honk your horn." " What?" "Honk it." "Oh." "It's your sister, with my gun." "Hello." "Bummer." "Now step away from the vehicle." "You get to ride shotgun." "I kind of like this girl." "She's not your typical hot, stuck-up bitch." "Even before Zombieland, Wichita was running the table on guys like us." "Uh..." "What are you looking for?" "My engagement ring." "I took it off to pump my gas, and I thought that I put it in my purse, but it must've fallen out, and I'm late for my flight and..." "Well, listen, I'll find your ring, and I'll FedEx it to you." "I'll give you a reward." "Ha." "Don't be silly." "Three thousand dollars." "It's worth more than my car." "Just..." "Just give me your number." "Yeah." "I'll find it." "Yeah, I'll start looking for it right now." "Because I got nothing else to do." "I was engaged once, but I'm single now." "Bye-bye." "Hope you make your flight." "No, but I know it's around here somewhere." "She's on a plane, that's the beauty of it." "Let me call you back." "Hey, you found my ring." "Thanks." "I've been looking all over for it." " Your ring?" " Well, it's my friend's, you know." " I'm gonna send it to her." " Do I get a reward?" "Forty, 60, 80, 400." "That's it." "That's the whole register." "You made someone very happy." "You too." "Nice." "How many left?" "Let me see." "Hmm." "Enough for us to get to California." "Someday, I want a ring this big." "Hmm." "For the low price of 30 bucks, sold." "It's amazing how far you can get with some costume jewelry and a cutthroat attitude." "I guess we're just lucky they didn't leave us by the side of the road." "Thank you, Wichita." "Thanks, Little Rock." "For fuck's sake, enough already!" "We're being chased by ravenous freaks!" "We don't have enough problems?" ""Oh, they stole my Hummer." "We have trust issues." Get over it, okay?" "We can't just fucking drive down the road, playing I Spy or some shit for hours like four normal-ass Americans?" "Fuck me!" "Oh." "I know." "Let me be the mature one." "Good." "So where are you guys headed?" "Pacific Playland." "The amusement park?" " Wait, outside LA?" " Yeah." "We went there as kids." "That place totally blows." "My mind." "It's..." "It's so fun." "Just good entertainment for the whole family." "Yeah, no, actually, I went there as a kid too." "In fact, this probably counts as off-season." "Well, did you guys hear?" "There are no zombies there." "Yeah, we heard." "Uh..." "You know what, I may not shoot you, but you have still royally pissed me off, and I'm not going to play with you at Pacific Playland." " Don't worry, he grows on you." " Really?" "No." "It gets worse." "Okay." "How about we play the quiet game?" "Yeah?" "Starting now." "Oh, um, I've actually been meaning to ask you:" "Did you..." "Did you hear anything about, uh, Columbus, Ohio?" " You never played the quiet game?" " Sorry." "No?" "Well, they're playing it in Columbus, Ohio." "It's a total ghost town." "It's burned to the ground." "You're Columbus." "I'm sorry." "I didn't realize it was..." "I'm not sure what's more tragic:" "That my family is gone, or the realization that I never really had much of a family to begin with." "Either way, I can't pretend that whatever I'm looking for I'll find by going home." "I have no home." "Uh..." "We can, uh, get you a ride." "You know, you can go see for yourself, or settle somewhere new." "Okay." "I could tell she knew what I was feeling." "We were all orphans in Zombieland." "I know this Pacific Playland thing is nuts, but it's just been so long since she got to be a kid." "Yeah, it's tough growing up in Zombieland." "It's tough growing up." "There." "You could take that truck." "Well, I, uh, hope you find whoever it is you're looking for." "And don't let go, once you do." "It wasn't just because I had nowhere else to go." "It was because, in that moment, it became clear." "Wherever this girl was, that's where I wanted to be." "Man, we're gonna have to pull over soon." "I'm feeling cooped up." ""Wantum your wampum." Yeah." "That'll work." "Okay, but what the hell are we doing?" "Just humor him." "Trust me." "Hold up." "Who wants to go first?" "I really, really wanna impress Wichita, but it would be in violation of rule 17, maybe the most important rule of all:" "Don't be a hero." " Why don't you take this one?" "Don't mind if I do." "What do you think?" "Zombie kill of the week?" "Close, but no cigar." "Zombie kill of the week goes to Sister Cynthia Knickerbocker." "Poor flat bastard." " Perfume?" " What?" "Is that perfume?" "Um..." "It's cologne." "I'm thinking," "Lancôme Magnifique." "Why don't you speak up a little?" "I think they might have missed it in Santa Fe." "Oh, my God." "All right." "Okay." "You're thinking about fucking Wichita." "Wish granted." "She spent the last 24 hours fucking us both." "Hey." "Good luck now, Petunia." "Okay." "Let me begin my three-part apology by saying that I think you're a wonderful human with great potential." "It's okay, but FYI, I beat wholesale ass for a lot less than that." " I'm sure." " You get, uh, 45 percent power." "Thank you." "Yeah." "Come on, break another one." "Nice." "Doesn't that feel good?" "Yah!" "Sometimes, Tallahassee's right." "You gotta enjoy the little things, even if that means destroying a whole lot of little things." "Smells like perfume." "You don't know who Willie Nelson is?" "No." "Willie Nelson?" "Yeah, no, I don't." "Yeah, I shave every morning, but sometimes by, like, 4:30, I'll have a thing." "It's called 5:00 shadow, but sometimes I'll get it prematurely." "Since it's a freeway, you can get it up to, like, 65, but don't go more than 75." " You don't wanna go more than 20." " Don't worry about a blind spot." "Blind spots are for other drivers." "It's like the first time that I've ever driven." "So do you never strap in or it's just on long road trips?" "It's just, you know, there's zombies everywhere." "I think the least of my worries" " Yeah, that's true." " Is seat belts." "Yes, but, no, she's not." "She's only famous when she's Hannah Montana, when she's wearing the wig." " Okay." "Right." "Only wig." " So..." "It's kind of freeing." "Yeah." "For the first time in a long time, we were having fun." "So even though it ran counter to our strategies, we decided to stay together as far as Pacific Playland." "You know, I think sleep deprivation is, like, the number one health problem in America." "Heh-heh." "Well, now I think it might be number two." "Number two." "That's adorable." "I'm just saying I think we should find a place to crash." "Oh, I got an idea." "We're in Hollywood, let's sleep in style." "Grab a map." "Come on." "Hurry!" "Hurry!" "Good job." "Looks like anyone who's ever been in a movie lives on this block." "What exactly you think we're doing in the 90210, Sally?" "I kind of pictured Tom Cruise living somewhere nicer." "B- lister compared to who I got in mind, folks." "We're going to the tippy-top of the A-list." " Who?" " You'll see." "Hey." "There's a big BM." "And it ain't Bob Marley." "Whoa." "This place is incredible." "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to la mançion de Murray." " Ah." "Bill Murray." " God, no way." "This guy has a direct line to my funny bone." " Everything..." " Wait." "Who's Bill Murray?" "Hey, I've never hit a kid before." "All right?" "I mean, that's like asking who Gandhi is." "Who's Gandhi?" "She's 12." " No Twinkies." " Shit, fuck!" "See?" "I told you we should've gone to Russell Crowe's." " No one listens to me." " Hello, inside voices." "Okay?" "At least until we know we're alone." "Hey, Tallahassee, Wichita, why don't you take that way." "Little Rock, come here." "Why do I get stuck with her?" "It doesn't seem to end." "Hey, come here." "Whoa." "He has his own movie theater?" "Whoa." "Okay, I'm gonna teach you a little something about Bill Murray." "A king slept right here." "Dibs on the bed." "Too soft for me, anyway." "Oh, this is so exciting." "You're about to learn who you gonna call." "It's Ghostbusters." "This is pretty catchy." "Come on." "Help me with the boots." "Come on." "Help me with the boots." "Okay." "I'll get them myself." "Shit." "Bill Murray, you're a zombie?" "Ah!" "Ah!" "Oh!" "I'm on fire!" "Ouch!" "You're not a zombie, you're talking, and..." " You're okay?" " The hell I am!" "I'm sorry." "I didn't know that it was "you" you." "Are you...?" "What's with the get-up?" "Oh, I do it to blend in." "You know." "Zombies don't mess with other zombies." "Buddy of mine, makeup guy, showed me how to do this." "Cornstarch." "You know, some berries, a little licorice for the ladies." "Suits my lifestyle, you know." "I like to get out and do stuff." "Just played nine holes on the Riviera." "Just walked on." "Nobody there." "Goddamn it, Bill fucking Murray!" "I had to get that out." "I don't mean to gush." "This is so surreal." "I mean, you probably get this all the time." "Maybe not lately, but I'm..." "I'm such a huge fan of yours." "I mean, I swear, you know," "I've seen every one of your movies a million times." "I even love your dramatic roles and just everything." "Six people left in the world, one of them is Bill fucking Murray!" "I know that's not your middle name." "I been watching you since I was like..." "Si..." "Since I could masturbate." "I mean, not that they're connected." ""A former greenskeeper about to become the Masters champion."" "Well, that's why we do it." "I love you, Bill." "I love you." "I thank you." "Thank you." "You are staring at me." "It's a hairpiece." "I'm sorry." "No, it was just that you look remarkably like Eddie Van Halen." "I just saw Eddie Van Halen." "Nuh-uh." " Really?" " Yeah." " Where?" "How was that?" " At the Hollywood Bowl." "He's a zombie." "Aw." "That's a tough break." "So, uh, how about a little West Coast hospitality?" "Can I..." "Wha..." "Can I get you something?" "What would you..." "What would you like?" " Smooth, isn't it?" " Mm-hm." "Oh, hurry." "Hurry, he's on the ceiling." " Come get him." "Avoid the chandelier." " Light him up, Ray." " See you on the other side, Pete." " Oh, he's so disgusting." " Looks like Slimer." " Don't cross the streams!" " Ah!" "I don't wanna cross..." " Oh, no, he's awful." "Don't cross the streams!" "Thirty-five feet long, weighing approximately 600 pounds." "That's a big Twinkie." "Your sister is, uh, single, right?" "There's nothing long distance or anything?" " No." " Oh, good, good." "And if she had, like, a type, you know, if you can have a type, what would that be, you think?" "She kind of goes for, like, bad boys." " Really?" " Yeah." "That's cool." "What?" "Oh, whoops." " So Columbus is the scared one?" " Yeah." "He's like a little bunny." "I'll get him." "Watch this." "Oh!" "Oh!" "No." "No, no, it's okay, it's okay." "I got him." "Is that how you say hello where you come from?" "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God, I can't believe I shot Bill Murray." " Mr. Murray?" " I'm just Bill, I think, now." " Bill?" " Yeah?" "I don't think we're gonna be able to stitch this." "Ahh." "That's still tender." "You think you might pull through?" "No." "If it means anything now, I am so sorry." "It was just instinctive." "It was my bad." "I was never a very good practical joker." "So do you have any regrets?" "Garfield, maybe." "I'm sorry, he just gets me." " But it still is sad." " Yeah." " Okay." " Oh, shit." "Okay." "Okay." "Okay." "Shit." "Okay." "Oh." "Sorry." "One second." "It's a double-barrel." "Sorry." "Okay." "Three, two, one." " You guys want some Purell?" " Yes." " Please." " Yeah." "Around the world." " Yes." " Whoa." " Oh, free parking." " Yeah." "Which, coincidentally, is the best thing about Zombieland." "No, best thing about Z-land, no Facebook status updates." "You know, "Rob Curtis is gearing up for Friday."" " Who cares?" " The best thing is no more flushing." " Epic." " And the worst thing about Z-land?" "You mean, other than the fact that I shot Bill Murray?" "That's easy." "Losing Buck." "That's his puppy." "I'm gonna tell you, I never thought I could love anything like Buck." "He was just..." "The day he was born, I just lost my mind." "Sorry." "We were..." "We were two peas." "He had my personality, my laugh, my appetite." "Laugh?" "That's when it hit me." "I felt ashamed that it had taken me this long..." "Me, with the best cardio in the business." "To realize I wasn't the only one running from something." "Oh, there it is." "There you go." "Oh, you like the syrup." "Yes." "Okay." "We made this wallet together out of duct tape." "Take away a man's son, you've truly given him nothing left to lose." "I haven't cried like that since Titanic." "Hi." "A hint." "Why don't you, uh, exhale slowly, squeeze the trigger?" "Don't make me drink alone." "Okay." "It's a 1997 Geor..." "Georges?" "I never took French." "Georges de Latour?" "I don't know." " Oh, it's a '97?" " Yeah." " Was that a good year?" " Oh, my God." "It was great year." "Are you kidding me?" "I saw my first R-rated movie that year." " Yeah, Anaconda." " Ah." "Anaconda." "Um..." "First tattoo, porpoise." " Really?" " Fake." "First kiss." "Scotty Lynch." "You guys used tongue?" "Maybe." "You jealous of Scotty Lynch?" "Uh, yes, I am." "Um..." "Actually, I think I'm jealous of your whole 1997." "Uh..." "Let's see." "Mine, um, uh..." "First orthodontist." "The bastard gave me headgear." "Yeah." "I got my first B." "Oh, no." "Frightening as Anaconda." "Um..." "In wood shop, which doesn't really count as a class anyway." "No." "Um..." "Had my first, uh, school dance." "Oh, thank you." "It was a Sadie Hawkins, so girls' choice, you know." "Ugh." "What, and nobody picked you?" "It was girls' choice." " Those bitches." " I know." "No, I will not stand for this." "No." "You know what?" "On behalf of all the eighth-grade girls," "I would like to make it up to you." "Relax." "Scotty's old news." "I don't even know your name, but this is actually really nice." "You know, between you, me and What About Bob?" "You're actually kind of cute." "You think so?" "Yeah." "I mean, you got the guts of a guppy, but I could hit that." "Really?" "Or at least give you the intentional walk to first." "Hey, a little help moving the couch?" "Oh." "We're making a fort." " Yeah." " Yeah, that's probably for the best." " Right." " Uh, because, um," "I like you," "Columbus, but, um..." "But, uh, my sister and I, are gonna do whatever it takes to survive, so..." "I was hoping Wichita was just playing hard to get, but I realized she had more trust issues than I did, when I woke up the next day and she was leaving." "You are like a giant cock-blocking robot, like, developed in a secret fucking government lab." "Hey." "I can't believe I almost kissed him." "What's our rule?" " Trust no one, just you and me." " Just you and me." "Yeah." "You and me." "You have just survived the zombie apocalypse, and drove halfway across the country." "Where are you gonna go?" "I'm going to Pacific Playland." "Whoo!" "Ha-ha." "Open sesame." "This is the problem with getting attached to someone." "When they leave you, you just feel lost." "Having Tallahassee around didn't comfort me, it just made me feel more alone." "Hey." "You weren't exactly gonna score, anyway." "You know, you weren't storming the trenches before I came along." "That's why I don't let people close." "You only get burned." "You don't say." "Mexico." "You know what they call Twinkies in Mexico?" " That's where I'm headed, amigo." " Whatever." " Oh, my God." " I know." "This is really fun." " Oh, my God." " Yeah." "Oh, no." "I'm going after Wichita." "Look, you ever read that book She's Just Not That Into You?" "You can't make yourself too available." "I don't care, all right?" "I wanna be with her." "Have fun in Mexico." "Come on." "Hurry." "Get in." "Come on, go." "Go, go." "On the count of three." "One, two, three." "Uhn." "You okay?" "Come on." "Hurry, get up." " Come on, let's go." " Yeah." "There." "Um, uh..." "I'm not great at farewells, so, uh, that'll do, pig." "That's the worst goodbye I've ever heard, and you stole it from a movie." "Tell the ladies I said hey." "You know, their pictures were in someone's wallet too." "Hop in the car, Evel Knievel." " Let's go ride the roller coaster." " Thanks." "Go!" "Ah!" "Not as fun as I remember." "Shoot the control box." " Columbus?" " Tallahassee?" "I think they might actually require our assistance this time." " Buckle up." " Yeah." "I'm way ahead of you." "Time to nut up or shut up." "Holy shit." "My mama always told me someday I'd be good at something." "Who'd have guessed that something would be zombie killing?" "Probably nobody." "Look." "We better start working on our apology." "Oh, no." "No." " Hey!" " Hey!" " Hey!" "Ohio!" " Over here!" " Hey!" "Help!" " Help!" " Oh, my God." " Help!" "Hey!" "Help!" " Hey, they're up there." "They're okay." " What are you waiting for?" "That's your gal." " Over here!" " Help!" "Come on!" "Come get a piece of Tallahassee!" "Anybody hungry?" "Tallahassee's nice this time of year!" "Come on!" "Come on, you ugly bastards!" "Holy shit." "Holy shit." "Hey!" "Ha-ha." "Whoo." "Whoo, whoo." "Ah!" "Motherfucker!" "Shit." "I'm out of shells." "Bingo." "Hee-hee!" "Yeah!" "Oh, yeah." "Whoo!" "Here we go." "Oh." "Oh, shit." " Wichita!" "Little Rock!" " Hurry!" "Oh, my God." "Look at this fucking clown." "Of course." "It had to be a clown." "Fuck." "No, wait, it had to be a clown, and it had to be Wichita for me to finally understand that some rules are made to be broken." "Time to nut up or shut up." "Fuck this clown." " Thanks." " Hey." "Get your gun." "Here you go." "Hi." "Okay." "Krista." "Okay." "We should probably head out now." "Finally got to first base." "Not bad for that scrawny little spit-fuck." "Where's Florida?" "Uh..." "I have a little hunch." "Where are you, you spongy, yellow, delicious bastards?" " Where are you?" " Yo." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "False advertising." "Jesus Christ." "You want a Sno Ball or something?" "Oh, God." "Words cannot express." "It's too soon." "Do you think you could maybe just pick out the buckshot and just kind of eat around it?" "Okay, yeah." "No!" " No!" " No!" "That face?" "That's me realizing that those smart girls in that big black truck and that big guy in that snakeskin jacket, they were the closest to something I'd always wanted but never really had." "A family." "I trusted them and they trusted me." "Rule number 32:" "Enjoy the little things." "Tallahassee got his Twinkie." "And even though life would never be simple or innocent again, as he savored that spongy, yellow log of cream, we had hope." "We had each other." "And without other people, well, you might as well be a zombie." " Thank you so much." " You had us going." "Yeah." "Whoa, whoa." "Whoa." "That was very funny." "So until next time, remember:" "Cardio, seat belts, and this has nothing to do with anything, but a little sunscreen never hurt anybody." "I'm Columbus, Ohio, from Zombieland, saying good night." "In the words of the immortal Jean-Paul Sartre..." "In the..." "In the immortal..." "How do you do it?" "Just give me a little hint." "In the words of, uh, the immortal, uh, philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre, uh, au revoir, gopher." "Okay."

" What's going on?" " Getting MALP telemetry from P3X-289." "Atmosphere is completely toxic." "Sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide, methane, ammonia." "If there was a gate, there was life there at some point." "Yeah, I think that's a safe assumption." "Look at this." "We got these images two hours ago after the MALP went through." "The dome seems to be the only thing that withstood the effects of the atmosphere." " How big is it?" " About 2.2km wide and 500 metres high." "The MALP's giving us a proximity alert." "Three metres, and we're picking up a static charge." "Stop." "Extend the arm." " It went right through." " Whatever it is, it's not solid." "Move forward." "We've lost contact." "The MALP's not responding." "Bring up that last image." " How is that possible?" " I have no idea." " Colonel O'Neill, report." " We're good, sir, but not much of a view." " What about suit integrity?" " The hazmats could withstand 12 hours of exposure before any serious degradation." "Not a problem, sir." "We can make it to the dome and back inside an hour." "Understood." "Hammond out." " Picking up a static charge." " Yeah, I can feel it." "So what do we do, just walk through?" " The MALP met no resistance." " But it disappeared." "It did transmit for a while before we lost the signal, which suggests it got through." "I'm reading normal atmosphere - oxygen, nitrogen." "We're clean, too." "Seems the barrier scrubbed the suits when we passed through." "The inside of the barrier seems to be some kind of hologram." "You can feel the resistance." "That, combined with the static charge, must act as a warning, so you don't accidentally step through." "The MALP appears to be fully operational." "The barrier must block the signal." "This is an amazing piece of technology." "Permeable to solid objects, but won't allow the poisonous atmosphere in." "We really need to study this further." "All right, come on out." "Let's go." "Hello." "We're not gonna hurt you." " You came from outside." " Yes, we did." " What's your name?" " What's yours?" "I asked you first." " I'm called Nevin." " Hello, Nevin." "I'm Jack." "That's Sam, Daniel and Teal'c." "You wear strange clothes." "You caught us on a bad day." " Nevin, where are your parents?" " My father's in the town." " Can you show us?" " We just want to talk to him." "Maybe we could trade." "You know, sir, we probably could have found the town without his help." " Nevin?" " I found some people in the garden." "Jack, Sam, Daniel and Teal'c." " I'm Kendrick, Nevin's father." " I assume you don't get many visitors." "We thought we were the only survivors." "Survivors of what, exactly?" "You'd better speak to the council." " You came from outside the dome?" " That's right." "But the atmosphere is toxic." "Anyone who went outside would die almost instantly." " We wore protective suits." " But where do you come from, originally?" "From a planet called Earth." "It's about 6,000 light years from here." " You came in a spaceship?" " No, we came through the Stargate." "It's that big, circular object with symbols carved on it." "It's right outside the dome." " There must be a historical reference to..." " One moment, please." "The Gate of Mahg Mar. Discovered 563 years ago." "Believed to have been of significance in the worship of Goddess Morrigan." "Taken from Danaan and displayed in the National Museum of History." " So you do know about the gate?" " We do now." "We've accessed the relevant information through the Link." "It's a direct neural interface with a databank." "Ow." "The Link contains the sum total of our knowledge - all our history, our culture, our science." "Everything." "You can call up this information whenever you need it?" "Precisely." "Think this'll work?" "The signal was lost only when the transmitter crossed the barrier." "We need only manoeuvre the MALP into the correct position." "Nice." "We have a scheduled radio contact with SG-1, sir." "Dial the gate." "SG-1, this is General Hammond." "Come in." "Yes, sir." "We read you, loud and clear." " Loud and clear." " Colonel O'Neill, report." "It turns out this planet's not so dead after all, sir." " I take it the dome's inhabited." " Yes, sir." "So far the natives are very friendly, if a bit odd, if you know what I mean." " Will they share information?" " They'll show Carter the technical stuff." "In the meantime, they've offered to put us up for the night." "All right, next contact in 24 hours." "Yes, sir." "Thank you." " What?" " How many planets have you been to?" "I don't know." "Lots." " More than ten?" " Yeah." " More than 20?" " Yes." " More than 30?" " Yeah." " More than 40?" " Yes." " More than 50?" " Maybe." "Nevin..." "Let the poor man eat." "It's more than 50, isn't it?" "You think it's too late to pitch a tent?" " Are you sure you've had enough to eat?" " Yes, it was delicious." "You've obviously no trouble growing food." " Everything in the dome is self-sufficient." " What about power?" "We draw energy from geothermal vents beneath the town." "Tomorrow I can show you the generators." "Pallan's one of the technicians who maintains the system." "Your level of architecture seems to be out of step with your level of technology." "Technology destroyed our world." "The dome was created because industrial growth poisoned the air." "Our people were dying, so the survivors made a choice to simplify their lives." "We have environmental problems." "If we learned your history, it might help us." "The easiest way for you to learn about our history is through the Link." " Is that possible?" " Of course." "Thousands of historical books are on file." "Maybe that isn't such a good idea." "We don't know if our brain physiology is compatible with the technology." "Ah." "Thanks." "Maybe later." "Hello, Nevin." "I'm not Nevin." "I'm Colonel O'Neill from Stargate Command." "All right, Colonel O'Neill." "Will you please take off my hood?" "Nevin, time for school." "Go to your room and access your lessons." "When I grow up, can I be an explorer?" "We'll talk about it later." " None of you has been out of the dome?" " Not in over 400 years." "We monitor the levels of toxicity, but we've never seen it." " What's it like?" " It's not very pretty." "I've seen images on the Link of a great city with tall buildings of glass and steel." "I'm afraid there's not much left but rubble." "I suppose... that's why they created this." "So we're not always reminded of what happened." "A pretty convincing illusion." "I'd love to see how it's made." "The control room's underground, but the entrance is this way." "As you can see, Major, we haven't abandoned technology altogether." "Yeah." "If using the Link is out of the question, then this is your only option." "We don't have much need for books any more." "These are all that's left from the old world." "Interesting." "The writing's similar to a language we've seen before." "Can you translate it?" "With your help?" "Let's get started." "Atmospheric analysis, dome integrity, power utilisation." "Very impressive." "If you don't mind, I just have to check the coolant pressure." "Please." "Pallan." "This looks like some kind of religious text." "Evalla?" "Evalla." "Pallan?" "Yes?" " Are you OK?" " Of course." "Let me see." " Did you see that?" " See what?" "The screens became filled with some sort of streaming code." "Impossible." "They always display the status of these systems." " I know what I saw, Pallan." " I'm afraid you must be mistaken." " So, what do we know?" " Well, their technology's incredible." "Pallan and I are rigging up a computer interface to download some of the specs." " Do they wish anything in return?" " Apparently not." " They seem happy with their situation." " It makes no sense." "They live in a bubble." "They've managed to survive for over 400 years." "Sometimes there is more to life than mere survival." "We could offer them relocation." "Yeah, I suppose." " Are you suggesting we leave the dome?" " We're just saying it's possible." "There are many worlds where your people can live." " But we have all we need right here." " Except room to grow." "We're talking about fresh water, fresh air, mountains, trees." "We can experience all these things through the Link." "You've gotta be kidding me." "It is a very generous offer, Colonel, but this is our home." "What about the other folks in the town?" "Some of them have to think differently." "The council speaks for the town, and the council's decision is unanimous." "What about the other council member, the woman that was here?" "There hasn't been a woman on the council since the last election." "And that was two years ago." "What?" "There was a woman here yesterday." "Colonel, I can assure you, the council has always consisted of three members." "I spoke to Pallan." "He has no memory of there ever being a fourth council member." "She was just there yesterday." "Maybe the Link has something to do with this." "If it can download data into people's brains, maybe it can also be used to alter their perceptions or memories." "Perhaps she opposed the others and they got rid of her." "So they erased her from existence?" "Seems a little harsh." "The bottom line is we can't trust these people." "I'd still like to finish my research on the dome technology." "Maybe something in the archive can shed some light on it." "The behaviour of the people does seem odd, but they don't appear to be a threat." "All right, see what you can find out." "How's it coming?" "I still can't find any historical reference to the time period when the dome was built." "By then, our people had begun using the Link." "It's possible not much written material survives from that era." "Let me ask you something." "If you had a chance to leave the dome and live on another planet, would you take it?" "Pallan told me about the talk you had with the council." " And?" " We have everything we need right here." "That's what they said." "We hope someday the poison'll dissipate and we'll be able to reclaim the planet." " But not in your lifetime." " No." "What about children?" "Don't you and Pallan want to have a family?" "Of course." "But there must be population controls." " A couple's allowed a maximum of two." " You're OK with that?" "Limited resources dictate we maintain the population at a certain level." " How many people are we talking about?" " At this precise moment?" "1,373." "And what would happen if someone decided to break the rules and have more than two children?" "I don't know." "No one ever has." "Try the interface now." "We got it." "You believe this technology will be useful on your world?" "Why don't you and your wife come see for yourselves?" "Oh." "Just for a visit." " Do you have oceans?" " Oceans, deserts, rainforests." " It would take a lifetime to see it all." " It sounds wonderful." "Wait a minute." " These are the power utilisation figures?" " That's right." " What's a normal variation?" " Between 0.01 and 0.07%." "Well, then, we've got a problem." "These levels are 2% lower than when we first came down here." "No, that can't be." "No, you're mistaken." "These figures are within normal range." " Do you have this morning's readings?" " Of course." "You see?" "No variation." "This is wrong." " These measurements are foreign to you." " Doesn't mean I can't recognise a drop." "Major, I can access 400 years of recorded power utilisation figures on the Link." "There's never been more than a 0.1% variation." "Hypothetically speaking, if there was, would it threaten the integrity of the force field?" "I suppose it might, but it's never come up." "Colonel O'Neill!" "Is it true you've offered to take us through the gate to another world?" "Yeah, that's right." "Then Nevin and I will come with you." "I see the way he is with you." "I realise he deserves more than this world can offer." "Are you certain?" "This is not a decision to be taken lightly." "I want my son to be in a world where the sky and the clouds aren't part of an illusion created by computer." "That's good enough for me." " Colonel, come in." " Go ahead." "Sir, I've run some calculations here and I've discovered something." "O'Neill." "Sir, are you reading me?" " Carter, the MALP's gone." " Say again?" "The MALP is no longer parked where we parked it." "Someone does not wish us to communicate with SGC." "That's not our only problem." "The dome is losing power." "I noticed a discrepancy with output levels, but the computer data showed no change." "I converted the units and compared the current levels with yesterday's readings." "And?" "In the last 24 hours there's been almost a 4% drop." "If this continues, the dome will fail." " How much time?" " It's hard to say." "But when it does everyone here will die." "Evalla?" "The computer's giving me new data." "The power level is definitely dropping." "Major Carter, should we not warn the townspeople?" "I'm not sure we'd convince them." "Our only evidence is the readings, and, for some reason, Pallan couldn't see they were changing." "Maybe he's in on it." "I don't think so." "I think his memories are being altered." "The same may hold true for the others." "Evalla!" "Evalla!" "I called out to her and she ignored me." "It was like she was in a trance." "Perhaps she was under the influence of the Link." "Who knows what level of manipulation is possible?" " So... brainwashing?" " That's one way of putting it." "We have to help them." "They're being held against their will." "As long as they've got those things on, they won't be convinced of anything." "Is it possible to disable the Link?" "The same computer system controls the dome." "If we tamper with it, we risk bringing the whole force field down." "However, if I could use the computer to access the Link, maybe I could reprogram the data being sent out." "Do a little brainwashing of our own." "The only problem is, I need Pallan's help." "If I can find historical evidence in the library that contradicts the Link, some people may believe they're being lied to." "The records of council meetings will show there used to be over three members." "Exactly." "All right." "You two do what you do." "Teal'c, you and I are late for a radio contact." "Colonel O'Neill!" "Where are you going?" "Back to the house." "We need those special outfits we had." " The house is this way." " You are mistaken." "It is in that direction." "There's nothing over there." "It's the edge of the dome." "Come on, I'll show you." "Here it is." "See?" "Right where you left it." "Hey." " Is this where we slept last night?" " It is not." "What's going on here?" "Colonel." " Are you going back to Earth now?" " No, we were just gonna send a message." " Don't worry." "We won't leave without you." " Excuse me?" "Anyone who wants to leave is welcome to come with us." "Why would I leave?" "You desire to live in a world where the sky is not artificial." "You must have me mistaken for someone else." "Nevin, you wanted to be an explorer, right?" "I'm going to be a gardener, like my father." " You are under the influence of the Link." " What are you talking about?" " Those things on your head - lose 'em." " No, no." "Yes." "They're messing with your mind." "Get rid of 'em." " The Link gives us everything we need." " Just take it off a minute." "Just flick it off." "I can't!" "To be disconnected from the Link would cause instant death." "Now, see, that's something you've never said before." "Colonel, I think you should leave now." " Carter, what's your status?" " I'm on my way to the control room." "Well, watch yourself." "They got to Kendrick." "I've almost finished downloading the generator design." " Pallan, we need to talk." " All right." "Do you remember earlier I said I noticed a drop in the power levels?" "I remember you being mistaken." "What about now?" "Do you notice any change?" " Power levels are constant." " No, they're not." "It's just that every time these screens are updated, the data on the Link is as well." "It alters your memory, so you don't see what's happening." "Major, this is absurd." "Pallan, the dome is failing." " I told you you're mistaken." " No." "I am not mistaken." "If you don't help me warn the others, you, Evalla and everyone in this city will die." " Who?" " Evalla, your wife." "Major, I don't know what's come over you, but I've never been married." "I need you to disconnect yourself from the Link." "That's insane." "You believe that removing that node will kill you." " I've known that since childhood." " Evalla removed hers." "Nothing happened." " Who is this Evalla?" " I told you." "She's your wife!" "Your memories of her have been altered, just as you've been kept from realising the dome's dying." "I thought the council was responsible, but the changes are happening too quickly." "I think it's automatic." "The computer makes changes, then updates the memories of everyone, so no one's the wiser." " Pallan, you have to disconnect." " That would be suicide." "No." "That's just a lie that's been planted by the computer." "We need to reprogram the Link to convince the others, but I need your help." " No." " Sam!" " Got it." " What is that?" "Legal documents." "All I can say is, thank God for lawyers." "When everyone else was converting to the Link, they still used paper." "When the dome was made, you all signed a contract on land ownership rights." "Look at the number." " That can't be." " There were originally 100,000 people." "Impossible." "The dome can't sustain that many." " Not any more." " Oh, my God." "I thought the power loss would cause the dome to fail, but the computer found a way to compensate." "The dome is shrinking." "That's what happened to the MALP." "It's where we left it, but now on the outside." "Wait a minute." "If there were over 100,000 people living here, where did they all go?" "O'Neill." "There are other remains, but the bones have been eaten by the corrosive air." "I understand why you're reluctant to believe us, Pallan." "Things in your head must seem like memories of a lifetime, but they're not." "Yesterday you didn't know disconnecting from the Link could be fatal." " You're lying." " These documents are over 400 years old." "They're in your language." "How could we fake this?" "Why would we fake this?" "They only exist because the computer did not foresee outside interference." " To anyone on the Link, they're irrelevant." " But why?" "The computer is programmed to maintain the community." "Individuals were sacrificed for the good of the whole, only each time someone vanished no one noticed because all memory was erased." "Please." "No." " It's all right." " No." "I..." "You see?" "Now we need your help." " What's your status?" " Pallan's trying to access the Link." " We might be able to reprogram it." " Understood." "We're coming to you." " What did I do?" " It's another update." "Nevin, I want you to stay here." "Father?" "Is Colonel O'Neill sick?" "Yes, but we're gonna make him better." "What is it?" "These systems are so complicated." "I'm not sure I know what I'm doing." "You've been doing this your whole life." "You just have to try to remember the old-fashioned way." "Right." " Maybe not that way." " Agreed." "Let's keep moving." " Carter, we may have a problem." " They're controlled by the computer, sir." "O'Neill." "Hey." "Everything's gonna be all right, Colonel." "These are for you." "I don't think so." "You've been disconnected from the Link." "You're not well." "Let us help you." "Carter, now would be a good time." " I'm in." "What do I tell them?" " There's no time to explain everything." "Try to erase all memory of us completely." " Don't make me shoot you." " You're not yourself, Colonel." "Without the Link, your mind is playing tricks on you." "Who are you?" "I did it." "We ran tests on the geothermal vents that supply the town's power." "They started to cool about 200 years ago." "The dome started shrinking some time after that." "We should have the whole town relocated in a couple of days." "I think I'm going to miss this garden." " How much longer'll the force field last?" " It's difficult to say." "Even with less surface area to maintain, power would have failed eventually." "And in the meantime, more of us would have disappeared." "You still don't remember her, do you?" "No." "You know, in a way, I envy the others." "They all must have lost somebody, but I'm the only one who knows for sure." "How do you mourn someone when you can't even picture her face?" "I'm sorry, Pallan." "I wish I could help." "Maybe you can." "How?" "Tell me about her."

"(ANNOUNCER CHATTERING)" "That's Joe Louis, heavyweight champ." "(MEN CHATTERING)" "Schmeling beat you two years ago and now he wants to beat you again." "JOE..."

"I've never heard of Pompton Lakes." "Red light's blinking." "Yeah, well, unless the ducks are in trouble..." "Well, something's wrong." "We'll find it." "Come on." "(MEN CHATTERING)" "Get out of the corner, Joe." "MAN 1:" "Come on, Joe." "MAN 2:" "Come on, Joe." "Get off the ropes." "Off the ropes." "Come on, Joe."

"I'll pick it up this round." "Three days, Joe, and we break camp." "You know, this has turned out to be even bigger than just a title fight." "Schmeling beat you two years ago and now he wants to beat you again." "Only this time he's out to prove something."

"Hey!" "This is a closed camp." "You guys get out of here." "Yeah, we were just lost." "Maybe you could..." "You mean you better get lost." "I mean, like yesterday." "No kidding, fellows." "We're just lost." "Out." "What do you think?" "I think maybe another time we'll get acquainted, huh?" "JACK:" "If you can't handle Billy, what do you think Max Schmeling is going to do to you?" "JOE:" "I know what Schmeling can do." "So you lost to Schmeling, so what?" "He beat me good." "Joe, no one goes undefeated." "Not Dempsey." "Not Tunney." "Not Baer." "And not you." "What's the matter with you?" "Nothing." "No, no, no, come on, buddy, lay it out for me." "Now, this is more than just a case of you losing your nerve." "I know you too well for that." "What is it?" "Leave it alone, Jack." "No, sir." "You know, ever since you gave that interview two weeks ago, you've been acting funny." "Neglecting your training, letting yourself go soft." "And that's it, isn't it?" "That interview!" "I said leave it!" "No, sir, I'm going to push it, Joe!" "And don't you walk out of here until you've satisfied me, brother!" "You really want to know, man?" "You want the truth?" "I'll give you the truth." "That man, that reporter, he was sharp." "He knew, he let me know." "If I lose that fight, everybody in the whole country's gonna believe the black man isn't good enough." "My whole people, your people, Jack." "How'd you like that load laid on you, man?" "But if I duck it, they can call me chicken not you, not Billy, not Seth." "Just me, get it?" "Just Joe Louis." "He's supposed to beat Schmeling, isn't he?" "Yeah." "And the whole world is waiting for this rematch." "What are we gonna do?" "I got a great idea." "Come on." "That's a great idea?" "Bogg, who in their right mind would want to be a punching bag for Joe Louis?" "Bogg." "I was real good." "I know how to protect myself." "Against Joe Louis?" "Listen, he's gotta face somebody tough." "Or at least somebody he thinks is tough." "That's why we're here." "Well, you saw him." "The mood he's in right now, he's gonna lose that fight." "You got a better idea?" "I don't mean any disrespect, Bogg." "I mean, I'm sure you were good and everything." "But how are you gonna make them let you get in the ring with him?" "I'm going to let you talk them into it." "Come on." "Say, anybody seen Joe?" "Some road work, I think." "We should be so lucky." "Seth, what's going on?" "Now don't you guys come down on me." "I can tell him how to train and when to train, but I can't make him train." "Hi." "What?" "Who are you?" "I'm Jeff, Jeffrey Jones from New York City." "Well, what do you want, Jeffrey Jones from New York City?" "And how in the blazes did you get in here?" "I wanted to see the champ spar." "Well, we're through for the day." "Besides, this is a closed camp." "Yeah." "I saw the session or whatever you call it." "Yeah, well, that didn't mean anything." "Champ's just having an off day, that's all." "Good." "Then I guess you won't need Bogg." "Bogg, who's Bogg?" "Bogg, come here." "Kommen Sie." "(IN GERMAN ACCENT) Herr Bogg, at your service." "Bogg's one of Max Schmeling's sparring partners." "Or at least he was, until they fired him." "Yeah?" "How come?" "They wanted Schmeling working with guys who could fight like Louis." "Bogg here, all he knows how to do is fight like Schmeling." "And what are you, his manager?" "No, Bogg's my uncle from the old country." "Yeah, so?" "Don't you see?" "Bogg would be a great sparring partner for Louis." "Really get him ready for the fight." "Schmeling no good." "Bogg show Louis how to beat Schmeling." "See, Bogg's got a really big grudge." "He'll make Joe look good." "Promise." "What are you trying to say, kid?" "I just thought it would be a good confidence builder for Joe, if he beat a German guy, a white German guy." "And my uncle, he's not real good." "Oh, yeah?" "Hey, Fred, Seth." "Those two again." "Sorry, Jack." "I'll get rid of them." "No, forget it." "I want you to go and find Joe." "Right away." "I don't know, Bogg, he looks awfully solid." "Well, what am I, chopped liver?" "I just don't want you to get hurt." "We're just sparring, kid." "I know how to move, duck." "If I go down, don't worry." "I just want him to know he could get to me." "Hey, what's the big idea?" "I just want you to try this guy." "He knows Schmeling's style, sparred with him." "Hey, I don't need to do this." "Oh, yes, you do." "We both know that." "This guy's a bum." "Now go on out there and do some work, huh?" "JACK:" "Ready?" "Give me the bell." "(BELL DINGING)" "Got get him." "MAN 1:" "All right, let's go." "Let's go." "All right."

"Oh, Joe, you looked great." "The best in a long time." "That punch was just a fluke." "Who're you kidding?" "Schmeling's gonna even be worse." "Tell the promoters I've been hurt." "Tell them anything." "I'm not going to fight." "Now, that's crazy." "This is the fight of the century, Joe." "You heard me." "It's off!" "And they will suspend you." "Maybe even take away the title!" "I don't care what they do." "The so-called fight of the century is not going to happen." "Well, all right." "So it didn't exactly work out how I planned it."

"Captain, now, I suggest you keep the lid on out here." "I know the rap on air piracy so I'm not taking any chances." "Now I'm going back into the flight deck, just so nobody gets any funny ideas."

"Now, right up over that dial, over the windshield, it's marked landing, there are four switches." "Do you see them?" "JEFFREY:" "Yeah." "You take hold of those and ease them all up at the same time." "Now?" "You bet." "All right." "Well, now, aren't you something?" "Do you know what you just did?" "Uh-uh." "You just got yourself all ready to land that baby." "You activated the automatic landing system." "JEFFREY:" "I did?" "I can see you on the radar screen." "You're doing great."

"Come on, give us a break, Joe." "We know what you're thinking." "I'm not thinking of nothing." "Look, everybody gets scared."

"If I go down again to that man, everybody loses." "Not just black people but everybody who doesn't have blond hair or blue eyes." "I bet Jesse Owens didn't think like that."

"I was so close to her." "That prick had to come and break it up." " Dude, let it go, man." " I'm telling you." "It wasn't just an act." " She really felt something." " That roll of 20s." "I'm serious." "She was rubbing her ass all over my hands." "They don't just do that for everyone." "I got a friend who lives in Chicago." "You from there?" " Yeah." "Rockford." " Is that like a suburb?" "No." "It's its own town." "What are you doing here, detective?" " You should've got a ticket." " Okay." " What you did is a misdemeanour." " Well nobody's more embarrassed about it than I am." "Hey, we all do it." "You just got caught." "This any good?" "That depends on what you're looking for, detective." "What about the radio?" "One in my car only picks up Spanish stations." " That's not your system." "That's L.A." "Well, I guess I'm done here." " Okay, that's it?" " That's it." "Some husbands just bring home flowers." "Yeah." "I didn't have time to wrap him up." " Who is this?" " It's Brian." "Connie's kid." " Connie?" " This hooker." "It's a long story." "You brought a prostitute's child home?" "Why are you doing this?" "Connie's mother died." "A stroke." " I'm sorry, but that's no..." " She's trying to kick her habit so they won't take him away." " You expect me to watch him?" "It's just for one night." "Look, I'm sorry." "You're the only one I trust him with." "It's okay." "I hate you." "I love you too, but I gotta go." "Officer, would you see her to her car, please?" "Thank you." " Who's the woman?" " Nobody." "You'd think interviewing so many liars would make you a better one." " What?" " We all know you're following up on the self-pleasurer." "The guys started a pool to see who could come up with the best joke." " I think he's our serial killer." " Dutch." " He killed Sally and the others." " Got anything this time other than intuition?" "Like evidence?" " That woman." "That's his aunt." "She raised him after his parents died." "His early childhood fits the profile." " Shy, introverted, a loner." " You're getting colder, not hotter." "He was caught masturbating two blocks from the corner where Sally worked." "Still cold." "You never established Sally was killed in that alley." "It's the classic opportunity offender m.o." "They only kill when presented with the perfect victim at the perfect time." " And if the opportunity is not perfect?" " Plan B." "Relive the fantasy at the scene of an earlier crime." " It's getting chilly." " Think about it." "The guy has an apartment in Pasadena, has complete privacy there." "Why is he travelling to one of the worst parts of town to jerk off in an alley?" " You okay?" " I gotta get out." " I gotta..." " No." "Hey, just lay down." "Just relax." "Just relax." "It's okay." "Relax." " Jesus Christ." " Connie!" "She hit me!" "Okay." "Okay." "All right." "I'm here." " Okay, okay." " Vic." " Vic?" " Here." "Try to drink something." "It's water." "Come on." "Drink." "Okay, good girl." "Okay." " I love you, Vic." " Yeah." "Rest." "Okay." "Okay, Connie." "Come on." "Rest." " I love you, Vic." " Yeah." "Rest now." "Rest." " Is your head okay?" " No." "It hurts." "I'm sorry about that, you know." "I didn't know you were a cop." " That was the idea." " I wanted Carl to stop hitting you because I think you're real cute." "Sexy." " Southern, right?" " Atlanta, thereabouts." "Hot-lanta." "Yeah." "So tell me about Carl." "He introduced me to the guy who owns the club and that's when I started, you know." " Stripping." "Dancing." "I'm a dancer." " Sorry." " Then this one night Carl comes to me with this, like, relevation, asks for my help." "And, you know, he was getting me my medicine so I kind of felt like I owed him." "I'm epileptic." "Puts you in a tough spot, huh?" "I knew it was wrong, but he was such a sweet guy." "He hit me in the head with a tire iron." "Yeah, except for that." "Why are you guys harassing me?" " My aunt?" " We just asked her a few questions." " She's a nice lady." " Yes." " Told us about the fire." " What fire?" "The one your parents died in when you were a kid." "I give your aunt a lot of credit." "It couldn't have been easy raising a child under those circumstances." " I owe her everything." "You deserve a pat on the back yourself." "Why?" "Well, to be able to lift yourself above something like that excel in the face of tragedy, speaks volumes about your character." " I did the best I could." " I'd say." "Magna cum laude." "Top 10 in your graduating class." "Turned down a full ride to law school." " Who wants to be a lawyer, right?" " I hear you." "But it does bring up an interesting question." "For a guy with such impressive brain power why install car stereos for a living?" "Look." "I jerked off in an alley." "Okay?" "I'm embarrassed." "Now just write me a ticket and let's be done with this." "Do you like to hunt, Sean?" " Do I like to hunt?" " Mike Joyce." " Your friend in high school." " How do you know about Mike?" "Talked to a detective back in Rockford." "Two boys go into the woods deer hunting." "Only one comes back alive." " It was an accident." " Maybe." "Or maybe something happened in those woods." "Or maybe you just have a very active imagination." "An intelligent, but underachieving Ioner." "I wonder how you give your imagination a workout." "I know what you're trying to get at." "And frankly, this whole psychoanalyzation thing it just seems a bit out of your league." " Just trying to get to know you better." " Please." "I know more about you than you know about me." " Really?" " He's innocent or doesn't scare easily." "He's the guy." "Well, we better find something fast, because we can't hold him." "Hey, Dutch." "Heard you've been interviewing the masturbator." "What are you doing, getting tips?" "Goddamn it!" "I wanna go home!" "Connie." "Connie." "You are home, honey." "I wanna die." "I wanna die!" " Connie." "Connie!" "Connie!" " Vic." "That's right, sweetheart." "It's me." "It's okay." "I'm here." "Okay, I'm here." " I'm here." "That's right." " We had sex." "I told him it was time to pay." "He said he didn't have to pay." "That's when he started hitting me." " Man, Connie." " He pulled out a gun!" " I took it and I shot him!" " What's she saying?" "You have to hit me." "Hit me!" "Come on!" " Connie." "Connie." " Please, Vic." "Please." "I wanna die." "I wanna die." " No." " Yeah." "No, no, you don't." "No, you don't." " Det." "Wyms." "Tereza Varela." " Yes, I know." "Have a minute?" "People say you're the one to talk to." " About what?" " I'm doing a piece on your captain and wanted to ask you questions." " Such as?" "His effectiveness, people skills, relationships." "He's very effective, seems to do fine with people and his relationship is, he's my boss." "A very good one." "He skipped a few steps in his rise to captain." "More desk than street time." " People resent that?" " I don't." "One big happy family, huh?" "I don't know any family that doesn't have the occasional disagreement." "Neither do I. You're talking about the Strike Team." "Am I?" "Well, my sources confirm numerous complaints of excessive force IAD investigations, civil suits..." " I don't know." "I don't have your sources." " Carl totally rolled on Tulips." " And Tulips totally rolled on Carl." "He's a Svengali who got the dancers to go in on his little bait-and-bash game." "Carl says Tulips organized it." "She set up the muggings." " She's a hottie, not Amy Fisher." " Bottom line, who's the ringleader?" " Her." " Him." "This is the easiest case we've had all year." "Do I have to get involved?" " No." " Then get to the bottom of it." "Or nail both of them for kicking Shane's ass." "I didn't get my ass kicked." "I got sucker-punched." "Right." "Sorry." "Hey, what'd the doctor say?" "Until Aceveda subpoenas the prom queen's medical records, I take pills get a blood test every 30 days." " I'm sorry." "I took my eyes off him." "It happened so fast." "I hit him and his blood got in your cut." "If he's HIV..." "Look, Julien, it's not like we shared needles." "I screwed up, though." "I should have played this smarter." "Well, it's just a bite, you know?" "Drug kit I'm on, I got no worries." "Hey." "I heard what happened." "You okay?" "Just a couple scratches." "No big deal." "You let loose pretty good on that queer last night." "Yeah." "You did the right thing, Julien." "That prick jumped you." "We need to send a message." " What kind of message?" " Blanket party." "No, thanks." "All right?" "It's in the past." "You change your mind, you let us know." "What's a blanket party?" "Somebody likes to draw." "Detective Wagenbach." "Craves respect." "Fantasizes about being well-liked yet shows no outward manifestation of his low self-esteem." "He is ignored, unappreciated." "Inadequate with women." "It's just off some first impressions, but I'll stand by it." "Maybe you'd like to read my palms too." "Look at him." "Tell me I'm wrong." "It's why you became a cop." "You thought by having a gun and badge they'd respect you." "They do." "Even in a uniform, you were still a joke." "That's why you became a detective." " Tell me more." " Dutch." "It's all right." "You're the same lonely kid from high school." "When you look in the mirror, you don't see the person you wish you were." "Just a lowly civil servant that you hoped you'd never become." " I hope you're here to pick him up." " Not yet." " What are you doing?" " I'm bringing some things to Connie." "Is that where you were all night?" "Me and Ronnie are helping her." "She puked on her clothes." "It's ugly." " How about me?" "It's ugly here too." " I'm sorry." " Take this crack whore to detox." " I can't." "She'll lose him if I do." " What the hell's going on, Vic?" " What're you talking about?" " I'm not stupid." "What is it with her?" " Nothing." " Are you sleeping with her?" " Jesus." "The kids." "Oh, God." " Is this your son?" " Stop it." "Tell me!" "I pulled her out of a brawl two years ago." "These Thai-towners were kicking the shit out of her for stealing johns." "I gave her my number." "I told her to call me if she needed help." "She did." "Cracked out on the floor of a hotel bathroom." "Six months pregnant, screaming, crying, begging for forgiveness." "I show up and find her in a pool of bloody crystals." "She tried to get rid of him with some Drano and a plunger handle." "I rushed them to Mission Cross." "They did an emergency C-section." "Ten weeks premature." "Jonesing at birth." "He's a tough kid." " I have some old dresses in the garage." " Thank you." "We got a problem." "Carl says you organized the muggings." " What?" " Says he was just the muscle that you were the brains." " You don't believe him, do you?" "No, of course not." "But who knows how a jury would see it." "So, what can I do?" "Is there anything that you can give me to prove Carl's guilt?" " I don't know." " You gotta work with me here." " Victim's names, dates." " He set it up." "I just did what he asked." "There's only one deal to be made here." "And I'd really like to see you get it." "I want it." "There's gotta be something I can put on the table." "Right?" " I want you to explain yourself." " What's to explain?" " Why'd you bite my partner?" " To give her what I got." " You can't pass HIV through biting." " Aren't you the expert?" " So you were trying to kill her?" " I got it in jail." "Cops put me in jail, so why shouldn't I give it to cops?" "Look at you." "You're the reason why people hate faggots." "Wanna give me a big kiss, lover?" "I should have bitten both of you." " Where is it you're from again?" " La Unidad." " So, what is this room?" " Observation." "Victims and witnesses can safely identify suspects." "And we get to monitor interrogation techniques." "About three years." " I have less free time than you'd think." " That's right." "You're..." "The harm on the Farm." "That's what people call the policing tactics in Farmington." "Isn't it?" "That's just PR." "Never hurts to have the bad guys a little nervous." "I'd say they're more than nervous." "The complaints suggest brutality." "Really?" "Does your captain encourage that type of law enforcement?" "I need my detective." " Who's that?" " What did you tell her?" " Me?" "She's the one looking for dirt." " So she goes where it's dirty?" "Hey." "You and I don't like each other." "That's not a new headline." " No, it's not." " But one thing you know if I come after you, it'll be straight on." "This one, cut your hands off and smiles as she asks you to clap louder." "If she keeps digging, no one is gonna be happy." "Agreed." "So how do we shut her down?" " I heard Danny went home early." " The medicine makes her nauseous." " I hope she doesn't end up like Watson." " Knock wood." " Who's Watson?" " Got stuck with a needle." " No one mentioned him before." " What do you expect?" "A cop gets shot in the line of duty and it's all twenty-one gun salutes." "Some queer in a dress gives you AIDS you end up unemployed and the city's dirty secret." "The guy who bit her couldn't care less." "Just because Danny doesn't want to give him a blanket party doesn't mean this fairy doesn't deserve one." "Count me in." " Last cage on the right." "Let's go." " How's the case coming?" "Sweet." "Cut a deal with Tulips to testify against Carl." "Roped in the other girls who were in on it." "Consider the mugging book closed." "Hey, I was doing a little channel-surfing up in observation." "I didn't know we got the Spice Network." " You saw that." " Yeah, I better not see any repeats." "Hey, I talked to the girlies." "They all say the same thing." " Tulips was behind the whole thing." " What?" "Yeah." "Carl was just, like, her sexual pawn she totally manipulated." "Imagine that." "Tulips." "Tulips." "So when am I getting out of here?" "I'm not too sure, darling." "See, your dancer friends and Carl they have a different hit on who's calling the shots in your little scam." "You." " So, what are you saying?" " With their testimony two years is the best I can get for you." "I'm sorry." "How much time are you getting for sexual misconduct?" " Pardon me?" " I got a yammy full of Georgia joy juice." "Enough DNA to have you writing parking tickets in Pacoima." "So am I walking out of here or do we need to call your supervisor?" " Do I look okay?" " Beautiful." "I'm feeling a little dizzy." "Would you like something to drink?" " Yeah." " You should lay down." " Okay." "Can you get me some tea first?" " Sure." "I'm tired of talking about my parents." "Let's talk about you." "Now how does your father feel about the way that your life's turned out?" "He's proud of me." "Sure." "That's what he says to your face." " Oh, man." " Hey, guys." "Come here." " You gotta check this out." " What's up?" " Dutch is getting hammered by a civvie." " It's brutal." "It's like watching a train wreck." "Only it's more horrific." "Whatever you're after, put it on the table." "Okay." "Tell me about increased allegations of brutality." "We're a proactive force." "Bad guys don't like to be arrested." "Allegations are all they are." "So you're not promoting use of force to inflate your impressive crime statistics." " Please." " Listen he's the top cop in this building." "He gets results, but not at the expense of the law." "He deserves a lot of credit." "What about your alleged rape of a 21 -year-old white girl?" " What?" " Would you like to take credit for that?" "Vic, give us a minute." " What are you doing?" " A captain with a history of violence commands the district with the highest percentage of brutality complaints." "Now he wants to be on the city council." "That was 15 years ago." "Hospital records show Maureen Wilmore had signs of bruising and burns." "I'm not gonna discuss this." "I have a wife and daughter." "How would you feel if their rapist wanted to be their representative?" "There's not a story here." "I'll take that as a no comment." "Truth is, I may not have been a popular guy in school, but I got laid." "More than a few times." "I'm getting laid now too." "And guess what?" "She's hot." " Pathetic." " Oh, man." " What's going on?" " Sherlock Holmes is getting smoked." "Truth is, I just lik e to solve puzzles." "I would've told you earlier, but I needed time to do a few things." "Now, here's what I know about you." "You're perceptive." "You can sense when people are vulnerable." "You have access to other people's cars." "That way, they can't be traced back to you." "Meticulous." "There wasn't a speck of dust in your shop." "Because in your business, you can't make any mistakes." "Did you put a Sony CD player into a green Ford Taurus five weeks ago?" "I don't know." "I work on a lot of cars." "Customer said you returned it with a broken taillight." "Now that does sound vaguely familiar there." " You remember Sally, Sean?" " Should I, Dutch?" "Oh, my God." "Someone stop it." " I wanna leave." " You had the chance to leave earlier." "Instead you decided to stick around and show off." " The judge issued a search warrant." " For what?" " He gave us the keys to your place." " You're not gonna find anything there." "Just the standard collection of bondage-domination porn." "Which is why we also got a search warrant for you aunt's house." " You can't do that." " You cosigned the mortgage." "We can." "I thought this guy was eating Dutch for lunch." "Here." "Let me draw you a picture, Sean." "This is your aunt's house." "This is the porch." "And this..." "This is the crawl space the Pasadena P.D. Just dug two bodies out of." "How many more are we gonna find, Sean?" "Five?" "Ten?" " Seventeen." " Seventeen?" "Jesus Christ." "That's just under the crawl space, you know?" "The other ones I dumped." "I ran out of room under my aunt's house." " It's pathetic." " What is?" "How typical you are." "Soon as you're caught, you try to be special." "I killed 22 people." "Twenty-three, if you wanna count the hunting accident back in Rockford." "Oh, I'm special, all right." "If you're so special how come a lowly civil servant like me just caught you?" " Yeah!" " Yeah, Dutch." " Great job, man." " Thanks." " Hey, Dutch." " Yeah?" " Told you we'd get this guy." " Yes, you did." "I thought I was gonna have to do all the work." "Right." "Good job." "Thanks." "Looks like you're quite the celebrity." " It's right over here." " All right." "I'm so sure I am." "Way to go, Ron Jeremy." "Simple investigation and you cage everyone except the evil stripper." "We got the guy who hit me." "And she's a dancer." "Right." "You think she'll have trouble finding another loser with a tire iron?" "So everyone else here is free to bang away." " Lem here is nailing Chiquita Banana." " Hey." " You know what I'm saying." " I'm tired of you saying it." "Oh, so once again, I'm the asshole." "Just leave Tigre out of this, all right?" "I dig her." "This whole West Side Story thing's got a life span of two weeks, tops." "What?" " Where's Connie?" " Gone." "Oh, shit." "You're my wife." "I don't wanna keep anything from you." " Who is this woman?" " Maureen was a girlfriend at USC." "Her father is Chester Wilmore." " The publisher?" " Yeah." "Maureen, she liked to play rough." "Pleasure-pain kind of thing." "It was..." "Just tell me, David." "One night we were drinking, and she asked me to tie her up." "I did." "Pour hot wax on her stomach." "I did." "She wanted me to choke her to heighten the..." "I couldn't." "It was too much." "The next day, I broke up with her, and she got pissed off." "Obsessed." "One night, she tracked me down, and we got in this huge fight." "She grabbed my roommate's pocketknife." " I didn't get this scar rock climbing." " Jesus." "When that didn't get my attention, she filed charges and got Daddy's lawyers involved." "What kind of charges?" "Sexual battery." "Attempted rape." " It was a long time ago." " My God, David." "If Varela prints the story, who knows what the public will believe." "You wanna fight it?" "Babe, you just say the word and I will step away from all of this." "Let the bitch come after you." "Are you okay?" "Perfect." "Sorry." " I tried." " I know." "Come here." " Well, is he okay?" " Yeah." "Yeah, he's good." "Good." "Good." "Look I just wanted to be sure." " You need help." " I can't be helped." "He can." "He's a good boy, Vic." " Someone will love him." " He's your boy." "A happy white baby." "Couples will be fighting over him." "He needs his mother." "That's just not me." "There you go." " No!" "No!" "No!" " Come on, come on, man." " No!" "No!" " She's your partner, man." " Come on!" " Shut up." "Shut up." "Shut up." "Shut up!" " All right." "Julien!" " That's enough, dude!" "You'll kill him!" " Shut him up!" " Come on." "All right."

"Burying the dead." "Kept on digging..." "Master..." "I have request." "Please teach me the final techniques of Hiten Mitsurugi." "What did you say?" "There is someone I have to stop." "Shishio Makoto followed my trail as an assassin and planned to rule this country." "If he succeeds, people will suffer." "I am the only one who could stop Shishio!" "And there is little time left."

"It seems there had been a misunderstanding here." "Sit down!" "I said, take your seat!" "Abe!" "Please report that he died because of disease on the way here!" "You act fast." "A cruel crime like that, surely will be punished by the government." "That is called justice!" "Was there justice for me at that time?" "This conversation is senseless." "So thats it?" "Thanks to that "justice", I am not able to sweat anymore." "My body feels so hot, I almost feel like dying." "It feels like being in hell." "Living like this..." "Is hell itself." "You understand this, don't you?" "It was you who created us." " "Us"?" " Me and Battousai the Slasher." "If you still value your life, then go find him." "Then, sentence him to death." "What did you say?" "This government has lied to people by covering all the murders he did back then!" "Is that forgivable?" "Otherwise, I will destroy your government." "Citizens!" "Battousai the assassin has become the police fugitive, his name is Himura Kenshin!" "If you see him, please contact nearest police!" "He is often seen wearing red cloth and there is cross scar in the cheek." "He will be punished because has killed so many people!" "If you see him, please contact nearest police!" " You have returned." " What is this?" "That is Shishio's order." "We cant do anything." "Shishio's order?" "He too was an assassin right?" "Shishio also killed so many in Meiji era, he should have been the one persecuted." "But Shishio threatens to destroy this government!" "We can not just refuse it." "About Himura..." "the police will not find him easily." "Meanwhile, we collect information about the ship and prepare weapons for defense." "I will not bring in Battousai!" "What do you mean?" "It seems this government has forgotten the real hero." "What the fuck?" "Hey, if he is a fugitive, it means he is not dead yet." "Himura... is still alive?" "Right!" "They are still alive." "He must went to Kaoru's place." "But why he is charged with murders in the Bakumatsu era?" " No time to waste, Yahiko lets go!" " Where?" "Tokyo!" "To Kamiya Dojo of course!" "Besides, he's got nowhere to go but there." "Lets go!" " Execuse me!" " Yes!" "What is it?" "This belongs to this inn right?" "Dont move." "Hey!" "Kaoru!" "Don't make noise in the hospital." "Sorry..." " Kaoru." " Are you her relatives?" "Yes, kinda." "Someone found her, and took her in." "Kaoru." "Kaoru, how are you doing?" "Things have gotten worse!" "We have promised to protect each other right?" "I told you so many times." "The sword is just a tool." "Sword styles are used for the killing part." "No matter how beautiful the blade is..." "That remains the fact." "Stop with your nonsense..." "And face the truth." "You said you want to protect people, but instead you could do nothing." "Kaoru-dono." "You are still the same like the kid who can only dig graves." "With your current ability..." "how could you manage to finish the style?" "Prove it to me with your stupid sword!" "Be like then when you were a boy." "Even if you were beaten to a pulp, you kept rising up." "Misao." "Grandpa." "Thank god!" "Aoshi... where is he?" "Is Kyoto alright?" "Yes." "But, Himura..." "Is that so." "If Himura is still alive..." "There's only one place he would come to!" "Why don't you take a sip?" "I made the sake myself." "Thank you." "Why do pottery?" "I don't know..." "Speaking of which..." "I made it just for myself." "To me drinking sake, is really a fun thing." "That's it." "Is that so." "It reminds me to a saying..." "In spring, Sakura flowers blossom." "In Summer, the stars appear." "In Fall, the full moon shows and in Winter, the snow falls." "Just by seeing it, the sake tastes really good." "If it doesn't taste good, then..." "There must be something wrong in you." "I want to ask you..." "About scar on your face." "During the Bakumatsu, there was somebody called Battousai the Slasher." "The scar shows his cruelty." "It didn't sound like "You" how I once knew." "When I was on carrying out an order..." "I got this scar." "In my mind, there was only killing." "I will not kill again, ever." "So thats why..." "You have that weird sword." "Is your opponent right now really that formidable?" "Right now I can't even beat Shishio's underling." "The strong lives, the weak dies." "Reality, plain and simple." "I will beat him, even if I have to sacrifice my life." "Fool." "Then you are prepared to die here?" "I will give you time." "You have to find out what's wrong with you." "Figure it out with that stupid head of yours." "If you still don't know..." "You'll die here." "What is wrong with me..." "You didn't sleep last night?" "So?" "Have you figured out what is wrong with you?" "Not yet." "Now that is your problem." "Figure out what is wrong with you, by fighting me as your enemy." "If you can beat me with that blade..." "But if you can't, It means that you are still afraid of that slasher instinct in your heart." "You are afraid that you will live in suffering, sadness, and loneliness..." "If you kill again." "Well then..." "Will I be able to help the monster Battousai the Slasher..." "To put and end to Shishio once and for all?" "I am trembling." "Am I afraid of my master, Hiko Seijuro?" "No." "Am I afraid of death itself?" "No, that's not it." "During the Bakumatsu war, I was always prepared to die." "Even if it costs my life..." "I will finish the technique!" "Not yet!" "I can't die yet!" "Finally, you've come to realize it." "You took so many lives during the battle as a slasher..." "And because of that regret, you think to yourself that your life is worthless." "And to overcome that, you must learn to control your feelings." "You need the willingness to live on." "Willingness to live..." "You've become weaker because you've spent most of your life protecting helpless people." "To the point where you don't understand your own." "Your life is as worth as other people's lives." "When you realize that..." "You will be able to finish the technique." "My life..." "Your life doesn't belong to your own." "You understand?" "C'mon." "Let's continue." "What's for lunch today?" " What's wrong with you?" "Here, drink." " Shut up!" "Drink it yourself." "What's wrong?" "Piss off!" "Kaoru!" "Yahiko!" " You need to stay alive!" " Kaoru-dono!" "Kaoru!" "Hey, found you!" " Kaoru!" " Hey." " You made us worried." " You fool!" "I am so worried about you." "Are you okay?" "I'm waiting for Kenshin." "Is that so?" "Kenshin?" "Where is he?" "Kenshin!" "Kenshin!" "Stupid!" "Thats not what she meant." "She is hoping for Kenshin's return." "Lets go!" " Where are we going?" " It's obvious, isn't it?" "To Tokyo." "Kaoru." "Leaving already?" "There is no time." "I have to stop Shishio as soon as possible." "Don't just rely on that technique." "You alone, bearing all the burden." "Just be careful in this Meiji era." "Understood." "Himura!" "Himura!" "Misao-dono." " I was worried about you." " Why are you here?" "Nevermind that." "Kaoru is alive!" "A lot of things had happened." "Shishio is controlling the government..." "They will arrest you." "Grandpa instructed me to go look for you." "Hurry up and leave." "Your willingness to live..." "Is the most important of all." "Promise me, Kenshin." "You won't waste your life." "Yes." "Master." "Thank you for looking after me." "Don't die." "The government had made you a fugitive." "If you get caught, you will be executed." "Himura-dono, I have a map to a secret path which we used during the Edo era." "Please make use of it." "Thank you." "Misao-dono." "I would like to say goodbye to Okina-dono." "I understand." "Grandpa, Himura is back." "But he was just awake..." "Is there something you're not telling me?" "A secret path to the north used by Ninjas." "I myself would take this route." "Himura will pass this route..." "You have thought about that, haven't you?" "But Himura-kun has very important task, that is to beat Shishio." "I will not let you stand in his way." "What can you do with that body?" "You are trapped in the past." "I will free you from that!" "Grandpa!" "Elder!" "Grandpa." "That cross-shaped scar..." "You are indeed Battousai the Slasher." "Grandpa." "I have been waiting for ten long years for this moment." "Leader of Oniwabanshu Watchers in Edo, Shinomori Aoshi." "I will take the "Strongest" title from you!" "C'mon, Battousai!" "Right, this will become a fierce battle." "Himura-kun!" "Kill Aoshi... for Misao." "And for Aoshi himself." " Grandpa!" " Right, kill me." "I'd like to see you try to kill me!" "Make sure you kill him!" "Shinomori Aoshi, have you realized that you've hurt Misao-dono?" "Why you are so cruel to her?" "For the strongest title..." "I can be even crueler than anybody!" "I don't know you anymore!" " Don't interfere!" " Misao-dono!" "Stand up, Battousai the Slasher." "You were the strongest during the Bakumatsu era." "I have sacrificed everything just to beat you." "Aoshi, that deep hatred you got from the past..." "I may not be able to understand it." "But not realizing what is already in front of you," "Betraying people and even raising your sword against them." "That is the reason why you'll never beat me." "Aoshi-sama!" "This isn't over yet!" "I can still fight!" "When you have realized what is really precious to you..." "And if you want the "Strongest" title from me..." "I will fight you anytime." "Miss!" "The Elder..." "Grandpa!" "Okina-dono!" "You must go now." "Now isn't the time to worry about us!" "Don't forget the elder's request!" "The future of Japan rests in your sword!" "Himura, leave us..." "Quickly!" "GO!" "If you want to take revenge, do it quickly." "I don't need your pity." "Your life..." "Belongs to me now..." "Belongs to grandpa..." "And also to the others..." " Megumi-dono." " Kenshin-San." "I was worried about you." "Thanks." "Did you meet Kaoru and Sanosuke?" "Yes." "Thank goodness." "Stay and hide here first, I will make you tea." "I am in a hurry." "I have to stop Shishio now." "I understand." "But, listen." "Even if you are badly hurt, please return alive." "I am doctor." "If you're dead, I wont be able to do anything." "But if you alive, I will surely treat you." "Before thinking of other people, please think yourself first." "Just like what my master said." "What?" "Please wait a moment." "Wear this." "The sword is just a tool for killing." "To help the helpless people, is the motto of Kamiya Kashin-ryu." "It is not to kill." "But to help people." "I knew it, It fits you well." "Please take care Kaoru." "Arrest him!" "Himura Battousai, Surrender now!" "This place has been surrounded, you cant go anywhere again!" "Surrender!" "Surrender!" "You guys..." "Don't you have any shame?" "Megumi-dono." "You were attacking Shishio, now you become his dogs?" "If you want to get Kenshin, step over my dead body first!" " Arrest him!" " Megumi-dono." "Thank you." "Get him!" "Please stay there." "Enough." "I don't want violence anymore." "Tie him up!" "Kenshin-San!" "News!" "Battousai the Slasher has been arrested!" "Battousai the Slasher has finally been arrested!" "Finally..." "Your body has become hotter than the usual." "Yes." "Can I wish you for something?" "What is it?" "If you keep on fighting, your body temperature will be so hot." "Shishio-sama, thats because of your burns." "How long?" "How much time do I have?" "Your fighting limit is fifteen minutes." "You better avoid blade fight." "Fifteen minutes huh?" "That's so short." "On your knees!" "Follow me." "Come in." "Ito-San?" "I am thinking of giving you more time." "I am sorry, Himura..." "But I have to sacrifice you." "If you want it this way, why did you arrest me?" "Shishio doesn't want to negotiate." "He intends to rule this country." "If the murders you've done before on the Meiji era is counted," "Obviously, you will be punished severly by the government." "That is his plan." "He has a giant ship near Tokyo coast, he can attack anytime." "We have no other choice." "But, if we fight him now..." "There would be great damage." "Ito-San..." "Will you let me be killed like this?" "If I can get near Shishio, I can beat him." "Is that so?" "Interesting." "Then do it." "I will hold the legendary Battousai's execution." "You have got to be kidding me!" "They will execute him like in Edo era?" "What are they doing?" "We have to go, hurry!" "Make way!" "Kenshin!" "Kenshin!" "Kenshin!" "Kenshin!" "You monster!" "Die, you!" "Where is Shishio?" "Shishio told me to watch you being executed." "You fool." "You are so stupid upon helping the government." "Yet there was no reward for you." "Tell Shishio, I will be waiting him in hell." "You think you can fight him?" " Hey!" " Kenshin!" "Step away!" "Hey!" "Kenshin!" "Kenshin!" "Wait!" "Hereby is sentenced to death..." "With accusations of killing so many people in the Bakumatsu era." "With that vicious past, is unforgivable..." "What is wrong?" " Hurry up!" " Continue!" "Give it to me!" "Himura Battousai!" "That vicious past... is unforgivable in this new era!" "Listen, Battousai..." "No..." "I will read some names he killed before the Meiji era!" "The following are the names;" "A young Kujo samurai, Hitsui Naoie." "First son of Madero Koji family, Oguri Atsumori." "Kujo samurai, Shimamura Tatsumasa." "Matsumura Korosuke." "Also, Kazuno Katsumasa, Nagano Kusisuke." "Two brothers from Hikone..." "Akizuki Tokuba, Kanbei Taro." "A samurai, Toda Goemon." "A doctor, Makino Hitoshi." "Takigawa Masahiko, and Inoue Kagehiro." "And the young samurai leader from Kyoto who was about to Mary, Kiyosata Akira!" "At the time like this, you are going to marry?" "Yes." "I'm sorry, I can't help it." "The victims were supposed to be hopes of this country." "That was cruel!" "As per your sins, you deserved to be executed!" "I cannot die now!" "I have someone precious to me." "I can not die yet!" "I don't want to die... don't want to die..." "The reason you can't win, is because you heart became cold after killing so many people." "In that way, you can't win." "You will live in suffering, sadness, and loneliness if you go back to murder." "I will not go back to being a murderer!" "Then the legend, ends!" "Kenshin!" "I will not..." "Your life is as worth as other people's lives." "Before thinking of somebody else, think about yourself first." " Wait!" " No!" "The show is over!" "Himura-San!" "Tell me you got rid of that useless blade of yours and have a new one." "This blade is new but not useless." "A blade that doesn't kill." "The reverse-edged sword." "Here we go!" "Retreat!" "Get back to ship!" "Damn you!" "Kenshin!" " Sano." " Don't fight alone!" " Where is Kaoru?" " She's over there, don't worry about her." "Prepare the boat!" "Kenshin!" " That's where were headed right?" " Yes!" "Why are you wasting your life?" "I am doing this..." "For the sake..." "Of the new era!" "New era my ass!" "You've done a great job." "Fire!" "Kenshin!" " Kenshin!" " Kenshin..." "Kenshin!" "Kenshin..." "Who are you?" "Man with bandages, come out!" "Damn." "Hey, you okay?" "Hang on!" "What the hell are you chanting about?" "I fought with a Christian, but..." "I never had a fight with a monk before." "Ouch!" "I better get serious." " This Shishio's crew is not bad." " Crew?" "Fool!" "We just don't like the Meiji government has done in this "new era"." "A man who was desperate and couldnt do anything, Sadojima Hoji." "Because the Meiji government took Yoshiwara..." "This poor lady was banished, Komagata Yumi." "Because of the restoration, he lost his feelings and is always laughing while killing, Seta Sojiro." "Thats why we gather around Shishio-sama." "I don't like new government either, but..." "It seems that peace has finally shown in this country..." "And I won't let you destroy it!" "Long time no see, Himura-sama." "How are you?" "I have no time to play with you." "How stubborn!" "Where is Shishio?" "You can't beat him..." "Because he is a monster." "It seems that you are faster than before." "But back then, you lost to me." "You will lose too, this time." "You cant kill me, damn monk!" "What?" "What?" "This is weird." "Life is not just about power." "This really sucks!" "In the end, in this world, the strong live, the weak die!" "The strong will live!" "The weak will die!" "The strong live, the weak die!" "Just like that!" "The fight is over." "I... did I make a mistake?" "No, the deciding factor of this fight..." "Is the one who has a stronger will, just like Shishio said." "If you fight to find the answer from the truth, it wouldn't be wrong." "The answer from the truth..." "You will find it, by looking in your own life." "Take this!" "See you later!" "That was fun." "Next time watch your ball..." " What the hell?" " Keep firing!" "Wait a minute!" "This is too early!" "Who told you to fire?" "Himura and others are still there." "Keep firing!" "Was it an order from Ito-sama?" "Hoji." " Don't bother anymore." " Understood." "Finally we meet again, Senior." "Pardon me for making you wait." "How arrogant you are." "Can you even fight with those wounds?" "See for yourself before saying that." "I wonder when this fight will come to an end." "In the eyes of this government, you and I are both the same." "Hence, they intend to drown us together to the sea." "Let's finish this." "Shishio-sama!" "You are strong!" "Very strong!" "Is that all you've got, Senior?" "Magnificent!" "Hey, hey!" "This is not over yet, is it?" "Saito-San, long time no see!" "You came here to be beaten up to a pulp huh?" "I've come to avenge my men." "Really?" "Show me what you can do then." "C'mon!" "That can not kill Shishio sama!" "I will finish you!" "Is that so?" "Too bad, Saito-San!" "So you're Shishio?" "!" "Hey, Hoji, do something!" " Your enemy would be me!" " Fuck off!" "You are bothering me!" "Who are you?" "That doesn't hurt at all!" "What are you?" "C'mon stand up!" "You're no match for me." "So boring." "Is that all you've got?" "What are you doing, Senior?" "I will end this now." "Who are you?" "Another man to beat?" "I am the one who will beat Battousai." "Aoshi..." "I will not let anybody else do that." "Don't die, Kenshin!" "Who are you?" "You are blocking!" "Get lost!" "You are all bothering!" "I said, you are really bothering!" "Get lost!" "Damn!" "Do they want to drown us all?" "Kenshin, move away!" "If that's the case!" "Die!" "It feels like I'm like burning in hell!" "Getting hotter..." "Getting fun!" "This is bad!" "If this continues..." "Shishio-sama!" "Shishio-sama!" "Stop this!" "He can't fight anymore!" "Don't torment Shishio-sama." "Please!" "Don't be too careless." "The fight has not yet ended." "Damn you!" "How could you do that?" "How could you betray someone who loves you." "You bastard..." "Someone like you wouldn't understand!" "I am happy." "For the first time..." "I can be useful to you... in a fight." "Please wait for me in hell." "Kenshin!" "Enough of this!" "This time I will finish you!" "Come here then!" "Stand up!" "Hey!" "C'mon stand up!" "Shishio..." "The likes of us are not needed anymore." "The era of killing is over." "Not yet." "Not until I rule this country." "It is over." "I will beat you with this sword!" "Go ahead!" "This is the end!" ""Hiten Mitsurugi-Ryu ougi, Amakakeru Ryu No Hirameki."" "Heaven's Sword style ultimate technique:" "Heavenly Flash of the Flying Dragon." "Don't forget, Himura!" "The era that made you!" "I am not done yet!" "It's been a while." "I don't get to enjoy fighting like this lately." "Pleasure like in the Bakumatsu era." "I have to rule this country!" "I have no time to play!" "I will see you in hell..." "Battousai!" "Shishio Makoto..." "It's over." "Let me go!" "Stop it!" "Let go!" "Kenshin!" "Kenshin!" "I will help." "Yahiko." "You are still alive." "Thank goodness you are alive." "Aoshi-sama!" "Good work!" "You all managed to survived." " What the hell was that!" "We fought for you all!" " Sano!" "Shishio is dead." "Are you satisfied now?" "I see." "So Shishio is dead?" "Now we don't have to worry, Kawaji." "Yes." "Battousai is dead!" "Dead along with the Bakumatsu era!" "Himura..." "Kenshin." "Am I right?" "Give salute to the Samurais!" "Seasons have changed." "The era where Kenshin was murderer..." "Has ended." "It is a very beautiful leaf." "I will keep living like this." "Keep living..." "In the new era." "Kaoru-dono, would you like to live in this new era with me?" "What?" "(♪ ONE OK ROCK" " HEARTACHE)"

"Now, I'm gonna knock on the other wall." "When you hear me, knock on this wall." "What is she, crazy?" "Hey, get that candle and get your butt out of there!" " I don't think she can hear you, Pete." " Guys, hit the mute button, okay?" "Lance!" "Oh, Lance!" "Oh, I saw it again!" "Hello?" "Who's there?" " Would you like some tea?" " Yes, please." " I've got an elephant." "What do you have?" " Rhinoceros." "Would you like an apple?" "Good." "Lana?" "I got a hippopotamus." "You're so big." "Why are you scared?" "Do you want to play with me?" "Lana, what's going on?" "I thought I..." "I guess..." "The lights went out, and..." "I guess the movie creeped me out." "I thought I saw..." "Thought you saw what?" " Nothing." " Let's get out of the dark." "You sure you're okay?" "You look like you've seen a ghost." "That's my favorite dress." "You're..." "You're not real." " I am too real." " No, you died." "Lana?" "Chloe's dad said you were up here." "Lana, what is it?" "Clark." "It sounds so ridiculous." "You can tell me anything, Lana." "You know that." "Clark, do you believe in ghosts?" "We used to come out here all the time." "We'd make little boats out of flowers and float them downstream." "They always sunk before they got around the bend." "Is this where she drowned?" "It was raining and the bridge was slippery." "The next thing I knew..." "It's okay." "Okay." "Funny thing is Emily always believed in ghosts." "Whenever a candle flickered or a curtain rustled she'd insist it was my mom trying to talk to me." "As much as I wanted to believe her, I always knew it was make-believe." "Maybe this is her way of showing me that the dead can communicate with us." "If she is a ghost, why do you think she waited so long to contact you?" "I don't know." "There's just gotta be a rational explanation for this girl." "Have you kept in contact with her parents?" "No, they split up after the accident." "I don't know where her mom is, but her dad moved to Grandville." "Maybe you're not the only one who's seen her." "Didn't you see the "No Trespassing" signs?" "Mr. Dinsmore, it's me, Lana Lang." "Oh, well, look at you." "All grown up." "Mr. Dinsmore, this is..." "This is going to sound strange but I think I saw Emily." "What is this, some kind of sick joke?" "I don't mean to upset you." "It's just I've seen her twice." "We figured if anybody else had seen her, it'd be you." "Sure, I've seen her..." "Whenever I hear her favorite song or see a young girl jumping rope in the park." "Losing a child is something a parent never gets over." "Now, if you'll excuse me." "Mr. Luthor, I would think quick decision-making would be your forte." "That's why I made the quick decision to put Helen in charge of the wedding." "Well, I don't see her here, and we're three weeks away and counting." " Hello." " I knew you had your vices, son but I didn't realize gluttony was one of them." "Oh, I suppose if there's anyone who's an authority on the seven deadly sins it's you, Dad." "Amaretto truffle." "Could I have some water, please?" "The liqueur seems to be overpowering the butter." "Thank you." "As much as I value your epicurean input, Dad I'm curious, why are you in Smallville?" "I wanted to give you my gift in person since it's obvious by now that I won't be receiving a wedding invitation." "You offered the woman I love $ 100,000 to leave me." "I did you a favor, Lex." "That was the ultimate test of loyalty." "And she passed with flying colors." "You should be thanking me." "Thanking you?" "Well, my thank-you note must be lost in the mail along with your invitation." "Go on, open it." " A Caribbean honeymoon." " Your own private island." "I'll throw in the LuthorCorp jet as well." "Why?" "I just want you to be happy, Lex." "Clark, when you turned in your press pass you relinquished all of your computer privileges." "I don't mean to be hall monitor, but it is school policy." " I'm trying to help Lana." " Of course you are." "What are you saving her from today?" "She's being haunted by a girl who died six years ago." "Okay, I'm piqued." "Go on." "She thinks it's a ghost." "I'm not so sure." "It's not like people haven't come back to life around here." "Even though it goes against my natural slant toward all things Wall of Weird I think there's another explanation for this." "Lana's been through a lot in her life." "Maybe this haunting is a way she's dealing with it through her subconscious." "You think she's seeing things that aren't there?" "No, I think to her they're very real." " She's not crazy." " I wasn't saying she's crazy." "All I'm saying is, there's a lot of things about Lana that you don't know." "I mean, you don't hear her crying in her room at 3:00 in the morning." "What you see is just a mask." " Why are you telling me this?" " Because she talks to you." "Regardless of what's going on between us, she's still my friend." "Chloe." "Thanks." "Lock up when you're done." "Sweetheart, I've been looking all over for you." " Everything's different." " What do you mean?" "Where are all the bunnies?" "Honey, we can talk about that when we get home." "Okay?" "This is our home, Daddy." "No, not anymore, sweetheart." "Our home's in Grandville." "I don't understand." "Lana said I died." "Lana doesn't know what she's talking about." "Yes, she does." "She's my best friend." "Emily get in the car." "No." "I'm not going." "I don't want to be locked up anymore." "I want to be a normal girl." "I want to play with Lana." "You have to listen to me, Emily." "You are never to see Lana Lang again." " Do you understand?" " You can't tell me what to do." "I'll do whatever I want." "Clark, couldn't the boneyard visit have waited till after the rain stopped?" "It's the only way to disprove the zombie theory." "Yeah, well, if this Emily girl really is a ghost I really don't think she'd appreciate you scoping out her coffin." "Pete, here it is." ""Emily Eve Dinsmore." "Loving child, blessed angel."" "The body hasn't been touched." "Where did she go...?" "Clark?" "Let me in, Lana." "I know why you're scared of me." "I saw my grave." "But I'm not dead, Lana." "Who are you?" "I'm Emily, silly." " What do you want from me?" " My daddy said I can't see you anymore." "Did you do something bad?" "Lana." "She's here." "Where?" " I swear it, Clark, she was right here." " Lana, it's okay, I believe you." "Emily's not a ghost." "I saw her." "In the graveyard." "It's where I found this." "Her father gave it to her because she wanted a necklace like mine." "But it can't be Emily." "She couldn't still be 10 years old." "I don't know who it is." "But I think I know how she's able to just appear out of nowhere." "I think she moves faster than we can see her." " How?" " I'm not sure, but..." "Hey at least we know you're not losing your mind." "Thanks, Clark." "Back from Metropolis so soon?" "Awfully long drive for quality health care." "You tailing me, Lex?" "I hope not." " A bit obsessive, don't you think?" " I heard you were here." " I wanted to make sure you were okay." " I came to visit a former employee." "He's just been admitted." "Unfortunately, he's still unconscious." "He must have been an exceptional worker to merit a visit from the CEO." "I like to think that I treat everyone at LuthorCorp as part of the family." "Oh, that would explain their lack of loyalty." "Have you become so cynical that you read ill will into my good intentions?" "I'm just wondering why you're spending so much time in Smallville lately." "You may not believe me, I'm sure you won't but I've always tried to be a good father to you, son." "I worry about you." "Son, these obsessive, paranoid tendencies..." "The danger with indulging them is that you lose perspective." "And you turn your back on what truly matters." "Lex?" "Coming?" "He's sleeping." "I tried to wake him up." "He needs to take care of me." "I have nowhere to go." " What's your name?" " Emily." "He's my daddy." "I think our daddies are friends." "Mine was just in here." "He's a bad man." " Did he do something to your daddy?" " He took the bunnies away." " What bunnies, Emily?" " The ones in the back yard." "Maybe I should talk to your mommy." "Is she here?" "Come on, stay close." "You're my best friend." "You're my best friend." "You're my best friend." "This must be what you saw at the Talon." "You're my best friend." "You're my best friend." "You're my best friend." "Who needs human companionship when you could have a Gabby Abby?" "I remember this." "I gave it to Emily for her ninth birthday." "Last entry's from the day before she died: "I hope it doesn't rain tomorrow." "Lana and I are going to the river." "We're going to be best friends forever."" "Lana." "Oh, my God." " Clark, are you okay?" " Yeah, I'm fine." "Let's get out of here." "You did the right thing, calling the police." " He was trying to clone his daughter?" " More than try." "We think he succeeded." "Whoever's funding him's sure got a lot of money." "Dinsmore even wanted her to have the same memories as Emily." " That's why he gave her the diary." " That little girl must be so confused." "All she wanted was a friend, and I just scared her away." " I have to go and find her." " Lana, I don't think that's a good idea." "Clark's right." "Until we know more, why don't you stay here?" " Mrs. Kent, Mr. Kent." " Hello, sheriff." " We followed up on your story." " You found the lab." "After we got your call, we went and checked it out." "David Copperfield must've got there first." "I saw them." "The people who took everything away?" "The sleeping girls." "Why are they like me?" " Emily..." " My daddy said I can't remember because I had an accident." "You don't remember anything because you didn't write that." "A different Emily did." "She's the girl buried in the graveyard, isn't she?" "Yeah." "This is her story." "But you have to write your own." "Why would my daddy lie to me?" "He probably thought that telling you the truth would make you feel different." "But there's nothing wrong with being different." "I'm different too." "It doesn't change who we are." "Yes, it does." "Lex, what are you doing here?" "I could ask the same of you." "I met Emily Dinsmore." "You can't blame me for being a little intrigued after I found out she died six years ago." "So you don't know anything about the lab that was down here?" "They cloned Emily here." "That's why your father's been refining meteor rocks." " What?" " There were jars of it." "Right where you're standing." "Before Dinsmore left LuthorCorp, he was developing a technique to speed up cell growth." "He claimed he could incubate a rabbit embryo to adulthood in a matter of days." "He's been using the meteor rocks as Miracle-Gro." "That's why Emily looks like she's 10 years old already." "All ethics aside, it's an astonishing accomplishment." "Well, tell that to the little girl who doesn't know who she is." "I brought you a picture." "Thanks." "Emily, I want to talk to you." "Are you ready to go to the river?" "Not today." " Don't you want to be friends anymore?" " Of course I do, but..." "Come to the river." "I'll race you." "I want everything to be like before." "No!" "Emily, wait." "You're here about Emily, aren't you?" "She's a remarkable girl." " Did he find her?" " Not yet." "But, knowing my father, he will." "You know that Emily will never be safe in his care." " I don't have many options." " I'm offering to protect her." "You loved her enough to create her." "Don't you want her to have a normal life?" "Of course I do." "But Emily's accelerated growth caused severe chromosomal damage." "She has no conscience, she has no concept of right or wrong." "She's dangerous." "Lana?" " Clark, what's wrong?" " Where's Lana?" "I thought she was in the living room doing her homework." "Emily, it's too slippery out here." " It's okay, Lana, we won't get in trouble." " You don't understand." "We've already been out here once before." "Is that why Daddy's mad at you?" "It was raining and I fell into the water and you jumped in after me." " Because I'm your best friend?" " Yes." "You kept swimming beside me, telling me I could make it that I'd be fine." "And when I looked back, you were too far away and the current was too strong." "Didn't you save me?" "No." "I thought you were my best friend." "If I could go back and change that day, I swear to you, I would." "I live every day knowing that it should have been me." "This time it will be." "Lana." "Lana." "Oh, please." "Lana." "Lana, it's okay." "It's okay, it's me." "It's all right." "You're okay." "Clark." "Hold me." "Lex, what's the crisis?" "One minute, you want nothing to do with me and then I'm inundated with urgent messages." "How does it feel to play God, Dad?" "If I left in the middle of brunch with the governor..." "I know you've reopened Level 3." "The ominous Level 3." "Instead of abandoning the project like you claimed you dispersed the research into smaller, undetectable labs." "How could you buy in to such a myth?" "Your connection to Dinsmore is more than a myth." "You're genetically engineering human beings." "Oh, Lex." "Lex." "Extraterrestrials." "Secret labs." "It's science fiction, son." "I saw Emily Dinsmore with my own eyes." "If you'd kept your mind on business, you might have noticed that the state has placed the conservatorship of the Kawatche cave under my control effective today." "That's impossible." " I was under contract for five years." " That's what I told the governor." "But, apparently, somehow, he's learned of a series of accidents and several unfortunate deaths that occurred under your watch." "I'm sorry, son." "I've tried to teach you:" "Always keep a sharp eye on the ball." " Smooth as silk." "Good job, Dad." " Thanks." "You realize, Clark, this baby is gonna be one lucky kid having you as an older brother." "I mean that, Clark." "Just a..." "Just a second." "Lana." "Hi." "Lana, I heard Sheriff Adams is still looking for Emily." "But I'm concerned about you." "Are you doing okay?" "I'm gonna be fine." "Just worried about Emily, after all she's been through." " Yeah." " I hope the police find her soon." "I'm sure they will." "Do you think I could borrow Clark for a couple of minutes, Mr. Kent?" "Yeah, I don't see why not." "If this is the mysterious Lana, I like it." "What is this all about?" "Us, kind of." "I just wanted to thank you for yesterday." "There were a few minutes there when I really thought I might be losing it." "But you never doubted me." "Not for a second." "You always believe in me." "It means a lot." "Lana, what is this all about?" "It's just that sometimes I..." "I feel like you've created this perfect picture of who I am." "That's what I see." "This might sound silly." "But I have this fear that..." "That one day you'll finally get a good look at me and..." "I'm going to disappoint you." "That you'll see that I'm not as strong or as good as you think I am." "And I'm afraid that it'll change the way you feel about me." "Nothing could ever do that." "Maybe it's me that needs to start believing in you." "We'll do better next time." "I assume this means I can continue the project." "I don't think that would be a wise decision, Pete." "You've jeopardized the research once already." " You said you wanted a prototype." " Yes, I did." "And this phase has brought us closer to our goal." "But I don't want you working on the project any longer." " You're too emotionally involved." " She's flawed but she's my daughter." " No." "No, she's not." "She's a poor approximation." "This specimen is defective." "You can't take her away from me." "She's my life." "She's the property of LuthorCorp." "Hello, Emily." "I don't like you." "You know what I think, Emily?" "I think..." "I think we just got off on the wrong foot." "Look at this." "You want to hold him, Emily?" "Go ahead." "Where's my daddy?" "You mustn't worry about him, Emily." "I'm gonna take very good care of you." "You'll see." "What do you think you should call your rabbit?" " Bunny Buns." " Bunny Buns?" "That's a beautiful name." "This tastes good." "May I have some more?"

"Eventually, you will feel in the rubber hand the same sensation you feel in your real hand." "Which seems extraordinary, but you will," " and let me know when you do." " OK." "It may not have happened yet." "Then you will urinate." "You have to keep going, I'm sorry." "You have to keep going." "Look, I'm doing..." "I'm keeping going." " It does now feel..." " Have you started to feel it?" "I am now starting to feel that this is my hand." " That's what happens." " I'm having trouble distinguishing." " Are you not, Sara?" " No." " You're not feeling anything?" "Keep going, Alan." "Oh, that's nice." " So you can feel that in the rubber hand?" " Yeah, definitely." "Lower." "You play your cards right, might get a happy ending with this." "You're not feeling anything, Sara?" " It feels very much like my hand..." " Oh, it now does feel like your hand?" " Not that hand, MY hand feels like my hand." " That would do, yes." "My hand has never felt more like it belongs to me." "I'm going faster." "I think that will help." " OK."

"But it clearly doesn't work." "There'd be no chance of driving in these!" "You'd just be like that all the time." "I found a very odd..." "I didn't know this was a rule." "Recently, I always get headaches when I'm on tour, so I thought, "Well, I may as just" ""stock up on paracetamol, because I go through a couple a night."" "So I tried to buy about 48 packets of paracetamol." "No, no, no, no, no." "That'll kill you." "Obviously I wasn't going to take them all at once," " but obviously there's a rule." " They don't know that." "You're only allowed to buy..." "I just thought to myself, "That's saving no-one, is it?"" "No-one's got to that point and gone, "Oh, can I not?" ""All right, I'll stay alive, then, thank you very much."" "I go into a newsagents and order a bottle of vodka and they give me a quarter one now because they've heard bad things about me." "Although there was a moment when the woman embarrassed me in front of a queue of people, where she said," ""I can't sell you that many paracetamol," and I went," ""Why is that?" and she said, "It's in case you kill yourself."" "She said those words to me and I..." "This was my panic, I went," ""What?" "But there's a load of freezer stuff in there!"" "Like, that was my actual..." "LAUGHTER" "Like, that was the logic, you know?" ""Look in my trolley there, there's some long-life milk." ""Why would I go?"" ""Do you think I'm mad?" "Do you think I'd waste that?""

"They're very fashionable, aren't they?" "If I were to tell you that these are..." "Despite their modern look, they're actually way over 100 years old." "They're mid-19th century from the open carriage days of railways onwards, because of steam, smuts, so on, people got really stung in the eyes." "I'm sorry, who's speaking now?" "Railway spectacles." "LAUGHTER" "That makes no sense... ..and yet it's funny." "I think I could tell what they do better, Josh, if you'd dance for me." "Whoa!" "APPLAUSE" "Now, what's this?" "Pass it down." "All you've got to do is tell me what it is, have a taste." "It's, I promise you, not poison, despite being green." "It's not wasabi, is it?" "Wasabi, there we go!" "ALARM BLARES" "You would be served this if you were to go out around London and go to most Japanese restaurants and we can have a taste and it's..." "Whoa!" " Pretty hot." " I can't." " Do you find it too hot?" " Yeah." "I can't even..." "My mother thinks tomato and basil soup is too spicy." " Jesus!" " "Oh, that's too spicy for me!" "What's in that, Aisling?" "Salt."" "That is as close to wasabi as you could get without it being wasabi." "I nearly took a mouthful of that, you know, it's not a joke." "I can't take chilli, but I can take as much mustard..." "I put a load in because you said it wasn't..." " You said it was not wasabi!" " It's not wasabi." " Well, it's..." " I'll tell you what it is." "I'll tell you what it is." "It's killed a man over there." "This is not Jackass, it's QI!" "LAUGHTER" "What you're eating there is horseradish." "You may say wasabi is Japanese horseradish, but the wasabi you get sold in British restaurants is almost always ordinary British horseradish dyed green." " No!" " Yes." "Because real wasabi, although it's related to horseradish, takes two years to mature and it's very expensive to transport." "So it's much easier to use the British stuff - which grows on railway sidings and is cheap as chips - to use that instead." "Do you know what, Stephen, that would have been lovely just if you'd explained it and used some bloody pictures..." "I'm sorry." "..rather than give us some and go, "Put that in your mouth!"" "I'm so sorry." "I'll swear to God, I mean I can hear things like a dog does!" "It's done things in my head." "It's like I've been waiting all my life to become a superhero and all you had to do was give me a bloody spoonful of that!" "Yeah." "It's opened..." "I'm seeing through walls!" "It's opened your Eustachian tube and your sinuses." "Oh, yeah, yeah." "Cancel my car, I'm flying home." "LAUGHTER" "Jo, it's your turn." "Oh, you've got a bonnet." "Lovely bonnet." "Oh, and something hanging from it, there you are." "How cool is that?" "That's great, isn't it?" "You are Mrs Norris in Mansfield Park." "It's a Jane Austen moment." "If there had been a character from Mansfield Park in Colditz, she..." "LAUGHTER" "GERMAN ACCENT: "So, so, you wish to escape from my prison camp." ""Not before we have done a little embroidery, no?"" "LAUGHTER" "I think it's more sort of Dickensian, isn't it?" "Like Mrs Gamp, the Elderly Prostitute." ""I say, sir, let me see your penis.""

"Oh, my goodness, I've never had the chance to do this before." "Obviously the eye of Horus." "Eye of Horus it is." "You have to find the connection between these five things." "First..." "John F Kennedy, Profiles In Courage." "Lots of points, of course, if you get it from one." "Anybody else is allowed to buzz if they think they know." "And the second one." "Schumann, Theme And Variations In E Flat." " Hmm." " Whoa." "LAUGHTER" " Cue patronising Jack." " You can all piss off!" "What's it got to do with the Eye of Horus?" "No, that's..." "You choose..." "Have you never watched?" " You've never watched Only Connect?" " Not a whole one, no." "Not a whole one?" "!" "All you have to do is find what's in common." "Only Connect, literally." "I think the F stands for his middle name." "That..." "How does that connect him?" "I don't know about Schumann, but if I was on a team on Only Connect, I'd ask them - is it like the second thing they wrote?" "Oh, that's very good." "Let's have the third one, because I don't think you're getting it from two." "John Prescott, Prezza." "Goodness me." "Schumann's nickname is Theme And Variations." "Oh, was that one of the Sugababes' line-ups?" "So I think we'd better have a look at the fourth one." "Fewer points, but this might help." "Alcoholics Anonymous and The 12 Steps." " I so can get this." " The last one will give it to you." " The last one is only for one point." " OK, hold on now." "You can see why I never got to the end of the show."

"I love this, more of this." " It's great." "Well, but apparently he's not a good kisser and he didn't have a good sense of humour, but a great dancer." " Was Donald O'Connor a nice chap?" " Yes, he was great." " Because he's..." "I love him." " What's Chewbacca like?" "IMITATES CHEWBACCA" "He also..." "Try and ignore Stephen." "AMERICAN ACCENT: "Laugh it up, fuzzball!"" "LAUGHTER" "I have the most delicate from this museum, it's a fan." "It's an eventail." "Beautiful fan for fanning yourself, obviously, but it has a secret lens in the middle so I can see what you are doing." "So it allows people who apparently are fanning themselves and not taking any notice of anyone else, to have a very..." " I'm not going to lie to you..." " Yeah?" "There is a slight different technique when you start looking at me to when you're fanning yourself." "Hmm." "You are fanning yourself very slowly there, Stephen." "HE GROWLS SUGGESTIVELY" "I think I'm putting these back on." "You must get this everywhere you go, you're going to get it everywhere." "No, I've gotten used to it, you know, it'll take a couple of minutes for the navicomputer to calculate the coordinates." "Yes." "No, that's exactly it." "That wasn't even my line and I..." "we all started saying those things." "You still started to say it, that's right, for the jump into hyperspace." "And it goes..." "MIMICS HYPERSPACE JUMP" "I remember you with Harrison Ford where he said he had a problem with the dialogue generally." "He said, you can write this stuff, but you can't say it." ""You can type it." It's very specific." "Yeah, no, you cannot say," ""I have placed a couple..."" "I can't say mine, "I've placed a couple..." No, I can't remember it." "Come on, come on, come on." "What is that speech that I did?" "You'd know it." "I'll tell you what we've done, we've brought 300 nerds," " look that way." " Yeah." "Oh, I know - "I've placed information vital" ""to the survival of the rebellion of the memory system of this R2 unit." " "My father will know how to retrieve it."" " That's it!" "Control, alt, delete." "APPLAUSE" "And then there was the syphilis outbreak in the 16th and 18th centuries." " Oh, then the party's over." " Yeah." " Filthy donkeys." " And goat wet-nurses were used there." "And unfortunately they were used very unkindly because..." " What's he up to?" " Milking a goat?" "!" "Oh, OK, fair enough." ""This better be for the baby!"" "I think that's a different bloke that usually does it, according to that goat's face." ""Hang on a minute, that's not the grip I'm used to."" ""Oops." "Hello!"" ""That's a bit firm!"" "Do you know what I've found odd about...?" "I don't have kids, so maybe women in the audience will know." "But that..." "When you're breast-feeding your child, if you are say in a supermarket or something like that and someone else's baby cries, you leak, like a spider sense." " Yes." " Is it not true...?" "Any women have had...?" " Yeah..." " Yeah, it is." " There's a bloke up there going, "Yep."" ""I always leak when I hear a baby crying."" "LAUGHTER" "I don't even know why that's funny." "Is that true, though?" "It is, isn't it?" "But if you have, you've presumably expressed into a pot and given it to the baby-sitter, because that's what happens, isn't it?" "Why would the baby-sitter want some?" " "Thanks a million!"" " There was an ice cream shop..." " Shot glasses." " "Dinner would have been fine."" ""Help yourself to anything in the fridge."" "There was, for a very brief time, an ice cream shop here in London, which sold baby... human breast milk ice cream." "You say a very brief time because it's the worst business plan of all time." "I guess you're right." "You try it once, I think, like incest or country dancing." "LAUGHTER" "I wish that were my own." "You've not been to Devon, Stephen." "I come from Norfolk, for God's sake!" "You know this thing now that you're interactive with your audience, so actually, as you're broadcasting live you have a screen in front of you with a Twitter feed on." " Not advisable, ladies and gentlemen, I have to say." " God!" "It's a very good moral and spiritual discipline, as everything you say is immediately commented on by some regular twitter..." "With #SaturdayLive, or #RichardColes is a..." "#Smug-MeisterTwatVicar." "LAUGHTER" "I swear there is someone who does #Smug-Meister and another one #TwatVicar..." "Oh, that's horrible." " Oh, Richard, that's so unfair." " ..and it's my mother." "LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE" " The Father of History, what's he called?" " Herodotus." "Because it must have been a lot easier when he was around." " I'm not having a go at him..." " No, fair point." "..but less things have happened back then." "Fewer things, I think you mean." "Some of the audience had you there." "Common usage, I play common usage card." "It's so like being back at school, it's unbelievable." "Apparently you can say "less" if you want to now, apparently you can." "Apparently you can just say what you like these days." "You can literally say less if you want." "Apparently you're not allowed to scream "idiot" at people." "What was the point in getting an education at all?" "!" "I know how to use the apostrophe, apparently now it doesn't matter!" "APPLAUSE" "What I want, I want the time it took me to learn that back." "We need to be less bothered about this, or fewer bothered." "You need to be fewer bothered about this kind of thing." "Just let it go, be fewer upset." "Who fancies a quantum-locking levitation lark?" "And to help me tonight we have Professor Andrew Boothroyd of the Physics Department of Oxford University." "Hello, Andrew." "APPLAUSE" "So what have we got here, Andrew?" "We've got here a piece of ordinary-looking black ceramic which, when we cool it down to very low temperatures," " acquires a very extraordinary property." " OK." "So if you'd just like to cool it down with liquid nitrogen." " I shall baste it with liquid nitrogen." " Oh, my word." " There we are." " And we have a second one over here." " Oh, right." " Do that one, too." " I'll cool that as well." "This is like the beginning of every pop video in the '80s." "Tell me what's particular about this?" "It loses all its resistance - its electrical resistance - and becomes what's known as a super-conductor." "And the other thing is that it acquires the property that it can bend magnetic field lines." "All right." "So let's pick it up and pop it..." "Oops." "There it goes." "Whoa!" " Cool." " Yeah, it's pretty good, isn't it?" "Literally." "That makes no effect and you can just give it a tip." "Oh, that's very strange." "Yeah." "There we are." "And as it warms up, it'll slowly sink." " Oh, wow." " There you go." "Is this what you do most days at the Oxford University?" "Almost every day." "It's not a bad old job." "This one here is very exciting." "And now it's nice and slidey." "But look at this." "And what's happening there?" "It's the magnetic field, isn't it?" " That's correct." " It's interrupted by this superconductivity." "But it's not like a normal magnet because a normal magnet would repel when it's up that way and then it would just fall off." "Yeah." "So this is both repelling and attracting at the same time." "I'll give it one more little go and then we can try it on... on the track." "I thought you were going to say, "And then we can try it on Alan."" " That would not be nice. - "No!"" "Upside down in a bucket of nitrogen." "There we go." "Pop it there." "Oh, wow!" "Fantastic." " Round it goes." " That's cool." "Isn't it good?" "It's got a little trail." "It's like a steam train." "And it's got a stream train." "It can go the other way." "We could put the wrong type of leaf on the track." "LAUGHTER" "And is this going to get us to Mars?" "That's the main question." "What do you think, Andrew?" "Are there any practical applications we can think of?" "You could use it as a piece of transport like that, but it's quite expensive because of the cost of cooling the nitrogen." "Oh, right, so it's not efficient." "But if we could find a superconductor that worked" " at room temperature, then it would be viable." " Right." "Are you working on that?" "We are, yes indeed." "Yes, I am." "I trust you." "JOSH:" "I bet they're not." "They're just playing with this all the time, that's what I'd be doing." "I know, isn't it gorgeous?" "So you'd think it would almost be like a maglev train." " That's what it would be like." " Oh, there we go again." "I love that." "And this of course can go on here as well." "That's my favourite one." "That actually is..." "Boing!" "Oh, it's coming round, it's coming round!" "Unfortunately, this one is less insulated and it'll probably get..." " Oh, that's stopped it." " It's doing pretty well." " It is, isn't it?" " Oh, my God, that's coming for me." "Oh, no." " Cool." " Oh, there you go." "Bless its heart." "That would be like the best Christmas present in the world, wouldn't it?" "So you need..." "What is the magnet made of?" "It's rather exciting names." "Boron and...?" "The magnet is made of neodymium, iron and boron" " and that's what the track is made of." " Neodymium." "Wonderful." "Very good element..." "The superconductor is made of gadolinium, barium, copper and oxygen." "But you can just use sticky-backed plastic and a Fairy Liquid bottle." "And old egg cartons." "Was it the Six Million Dollar Man when Steve Austin...?" "It would obviously cost a lot more now than six million..." "Oh, I could say." "Steve Austin got a bionic eye..." "Lee Majors, yes." "..and all they gave him really was a zoom facility..." "Yeah - dung, dung, dung." "Exactly." " ..so he could see things further away." " Yeah." "That was pretty feeble," " but because they'd given him about eight extra cones..." " That's true." " ..and he could have seen so much..." " How could they have shown that to us?" " X-rays." " Now we have the Instagram Eye and you could make it all sepia" " and old-fashioned." " That's right." "Yeah, but then our eyes would still only have three cones to watch him seeing something, so it would still look like our eyes." "Extremely good point." "He'd have needed a sidekick to say, "But what can you see?"" ""Like a bird, I can see ultraviolet light, which is where" ""the villain is revealed by this." ""Let me run over there fast."" "And also, while we're on the subject of the Bionic Man, he had one leg that was really good and yet they showed him running at 70 when the reality was he would have been hopping at 70 because the other leg would have just been destroyed" "by the speed at which..." "Biomechanically, it would have been unable to cope." "You've ruined my childhood." "They would've been better off if they'd taken off both legs, given him two bionic legs..." "Yeah." "Given him wheels, Adam, wheels." "And his sex life would..." "And the sex would have been amazing." "Yeah." " Bionic sex." " Well, there was the Bionic Woman, Lindsay Wagner," " and she had ears, didn't she?" " Yes, she could hear anything." "Lee Majors, Lindsay Wagner." " Well before anybody in this audience was born." " Fictional people." " Yes, they were totally made-y-uppy." " Yes, good." " I'm sorry." "Before your time as well." "Oh, God, we feel so old, don't we?" "Yeah, but it was great being in the '70s." " It was, yeah." " Almost perfection." "We could go to university for free." "Ha-ha-ha-ha!" "(Up yours!" ")" "LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE" "Let's have a liquid lark." "I've got some liquid here in the form of our very own QI water, as you can see, and what I'm going to do is pour some..." "I'm going to not use the sporty..." "Oh, God, I can't even open it." "I'm going to have to use the sporty bit, there we go." "That's as much exercise as you get, isn't it?" "That's the..." "Oh, so sporty." "Now what we do is we flatten this card on it and we turn it upside down and I want you to try and do this if you can." "And..." "Oh, God, please work, please work, please work, please work, please work." "There, holds up." "Hurray." "APPLAUSE" "So you should..." "You should be able to try that." "Whoa." "Terrific, terrific fun." " Yeah." " This could not possibly end in tears." " No, no, try it, honestly." " It could go on and on." "You just...you just turn it over." "There you are, you see, it does work!" "APPLAUSE" "Hang on, so, hang on." "Where." "And..." "Yay!" "Hurray!" "CHEERING" "And do you want to know something really extraordinary about this?" "Watch." "This should work." "Oh, leave it out." "Shut up!" "Shut the front door." "That's pretty amazing, isn't it?" "You're actually made of magic." "Go on, let's have a look." "Whoa!" "Ah!" "That's why we gave you these!" "Whoa..." " Well, hang on a second." " Oh!" "What happened there?" "!"

"O great American multitude, and sports fans everywhere." "Today we inaugurate the 20th annual Transcontinental Road Race." "Today the five bravest young men and women in this bravest of nations will risk their lives in the greatest sporting event since the days of Spartacus." "Three days hence, a new American champion will be crowned, for all the world to behold in awe, in respect, in fear." "All right, all right." "This is Junior Bruce, your buddy-buddy and mine." "And I'll be giving you the blow-by-blow play-by-play when the kings and queens of the open road roar onto the track." "Do I hear the sound of engines?" "It's "Calamity" Jane Kelly, queen of the road, at the wheel of that mean old ornery stud Bull." "Zany Janie, winner of this year's trials at Watkins Glen, placed second in 1998 and led at last year's second lap until she went out with gear trouble." "Her fans and lovers everywhere wish Janie better luck this year." "My fans can wish me all the luck they want." "If my luck with my lovers gets any better, I'll miss the race completely." "Isn't that right, Pete?" "With the start of the race only a heartthrob away, this is Grace Pander on the spot - as usual - to welcome the greatest racer of all time, and a very dear friend of mine." "Yes, in just a moment he will be coming through the doors!" "There is no cause for alarm." "The patient has been flown in from abroad in a state of suspended animation in order to facilitate the healing of his recent limb transplants." "He should be coming around any moment now." "Oh, my..." "I don't believe it!" "Frankenstein, can you give me an exclusive?" "How are things abroad?" "How is Mr. President?" "Is he still in Moscow?" "Mr. President is in his summer palace in Peking." "He loves everybody." "And everybody loves him." " Sieg!" " Heil!" "Here she is, that adorable swastika sweetheart," "Matilda the Hun from Milwaukee!" "And her lovable Nazi navigator, Herman "the German" Bock!" "Matilda, Herman, do you think this is your turn to be first and foremost in sunny California?" " Today, California." " Tomorrow, the world." "Hiya, Herman." "I hope your Buzz Bomb has a little more juice in its warhead this year." "Whoever named your car the Bull, was only half right!" "Frankenstein, will Mr. President fly in to crown the winner of the race?" "Yes." "Is it true that with your new mechanical arm you can shift gears in less than a twentieth of a second?" " Would you care to comment on that?" " No." "How do you feel about going into the race with a navigator you've never met?" "You'll love Annie." "She's a red-hot sexpot." "She better be a red-hot navigator." "No more questions." "It's the Lion!" "And at the wheel, Ray "Nero the Hero" Lonnegan." "Never has finished the Transcontinental, but three big wins in the provinces this season plus a brand-new beast means Nero's not fiddling around." "Sit still, Cleopatra, and stop blocking me." "My fans wanna see me." "They've never seen a has-been before?" " Annie Smith?" " Mr. Frankenstein." "I've checked out the car, and everything seems perfect." " I have the route maps right here." " I will check them in a minute." "We will roll... when everything seems perfect... to me." "I've packed some high-protein capsules and as many adrenaline tablets as I could find." "And I've also assembled a medical kit, just in case." "I'm trained as a nurse." "I don't need a nurse." "I need a navigator." "Mr. Frankenstein, you're very good at what you do, and I'm very good at what I do." "We'll see." "And you know there's only one person who guns an engine like that." "It's gotta be the roughest tough guy of 'em all," ""Machine Gun" Joe Viterbo!" "Here he comes" " Machine Gun Joe." "Loved by thousands, hated by millions." "Only living previous winner except for Frankenstein." "Highest lifetime score after Frankenstein." "And he's certainly getting the welcome he deserves." "Joe doesn't look too happy, but you can't keep those Frankenstein fans down." "Lousy sons of bitches." " Frankenstein?" " Give it to them, Joe." "You want Frankenstein?" "I'll give you Frankenstein." "Yeah!" "Here he comes!" "Here he comes!" "Frankenstein!" "Frankenstein the legend!" "Frankenstein the indestructible!" "Sole survivor of the titanic pileup of '95." "Only two-time winner of the Transcontinental Road Race." "Frankenstein - ripped up, wiped out, battered, shattered, creamed and reamed!" "A dancer on the brink of death." "Frankenstein, who lost a leg in '98, an arm in '99." "With half a face and half a chest and all the guts in the world, he's back!" "God only knows what he looks like under that mask, but he is back." "In the name of Mr. President, America loves you, Frankenstein." "You will regret that, Joe." "Stay tuned, racing fans." "T- video satellite will bring every mile of thrills and spills into your living room." "All five cars are in starting position here at New York Memorial Raceway, ready to roll." "Now we take you to the Summer Palace." "And Mr. President." "My children, whom I love so dearly, it has been my duty in the long and difficult years since the world crash of '79 to serve you as best I could." "Never before in history have the masses forgone all comfort so that the spirit of genius might thrive and seek the golden key to a new time of plenty in the fertile field of minority privilege." "And now. my children." "The drivers are ready." "The world is waiting." "Once more, I give you what you want." "Good morning, Americans." "Once again the race is under way, with 12-hour pit stops scheduled at St Louis and Albuquerque, home of the American Indian Museum." "At this very moment the cars are howling through the streets of Manhattan, but no points have been scored as yet." "Take it away." "Junior Bruce." "They're at the Lincoln Tunnel." "With Frankenstein and Joe running neck and neck." "Then it's the Lion." "Driven by..." "Passed by Calamity Jane in the Bull." "Moving into third place." "All right, and hey, hey, hey!" "The cars have split up, the drivers taking off on their favorite routes." "Frankenstein's still out in front." "Headed due west." "With Nero the Hero on his tail hoping to pick up his leftovers." "Calamity Jane's on a northwest tack." "Matilda's Buzz Bomb is trying to catch up with Machine Gun Joe." "Now streaking southwest." "Once again" " Mr. President." "I have made the United Provinces of America the greatest power in the known universe." "I have also given you the most popular sporting event in the history of mankind - the Transcontinental Road Race." "Which upholds the American tradition of no holds barred!" ""No holds barred. "" "That's how he got to be president." "Hypocrite pig!" "What about our ultimatum?" "He's been laughing us off for 15 years." "Passive resistance means nothing to him." "Pick up that flag, young man." "It's time for action." "It is not a time for violence." "Mrs. Paine, I love Annie as much as you do." "But she's no match for Frankenstein, and we can't risk letting him get away." "Frankenstein is the biggest target in the world and a friend of Mr. President." "That, Lieutenant Fury, is exactly why they'll call off the race." "To save his life." "My granddaughter will succeed." "Don't you ever take off that mask?" "No." "Don't you know about my face?" "I've heard stories." "Nobody's ever seen it, have they?" "Except my other navigators." "And they're all dead." "So they are." "They say you lost most of your jaw in the crash of '92." "And my right eye in '95, and my nose and my left eye in '97, and most of my cranium in '98." "I'm held together with patches of plastic and steel plates." "It's not a pretty sight." "You wanna see?" "Why not?" "I've seen everything else." "Remember, you're doing this on your own." "I take no responsibility." "What'd you expect?" "Another pretty face?" " They really love you, Joe." " Yeah?" "Then how come they ain't down here on the road proving' it?" "Hey, you better make this left turn." "You'll shave off about 2 miles that way." "Yeah, all right." "All right, all right and yes, siree!" "A clean hit!" "A perfect hit!" "And no pain for the target." "Too bad the guy was only 38." "Just two years older, he'd have been worth three times the points." "But, for the second year in a row," "Machine Gun Joe has splattered the scoreboard first." "How'd you like that, huh?" "Get off on that one, Myra, baby?" " What's the matter with this engine?" " I don't know." "Sounds fine to me." "Amateurs." "Get back there and retard the spark four..." "uh, three degrees." "I'm glad to see you were able to find your way back." "As the cars roar into Pennsylvania." "The cradle of liberty." "It seems apparent that our citizens are staying off the streets." "Which may make scoring particularly difficult." "Even with this year's rule changes." "To recap those revisions - women are still worth 10 points more than men in all age brackets." "But teenagers now rack up 40 points." "And toddlers under 12 now rate a big 70 points." "The big score - anyone." "Any sex." "Over 75 years old has been upped to 100 points." "As always." "How fast you move determines how long you live." "Toro!" "A beautiful kill!" "A neat kill!" "No calamities for Jane today." "No, sir." "And you can bet she'll be getting both ears for that one." "What is that?" "Euthanasia day at the geriatrics hospital." "They do it every year." "Here he comes!" "He's coming!" "Frankenstein scores!" "Frankenstein scores at last!" "But what kind of a score, boys and girls?" "Just 110 points out of a possible big 700." "What do you think about that, Gracie?" "Well, those doctors - dear friends of mine - have been pretty smug all these years, setting up the old folks." "Frankenstein must have decided it was their turn." "Which only goes to show that even the fearsome Frankenstein has a 100% red-blooded American sense of humor." "Annie saved those old people!" "And she'll deliver Frankenstein." "Meanwhile, innocent people are being slaughtered on our highways." "They're like Christians being thrown to the gladiators." "But just remember, the Christians won." "Did they, Mrs. Paine?" "I take it from your attire that your sabotage operations are being carried out, despite my wishes?" "Mrs. Paine, we're set to hit 'em with everything we've got." "Then." "In the name of humanity." "Let Operation Anti-Race begin." "How in hell are we supposed to score in this graveyard?" "You're the navigator." "That's your problem." "And think of something soon, or else you're gonna be out on your ass." "It isn't my fault everyone scored before us." "You should have hit that boy scout camp like I told you." "I tried the goddammed boy scout camp." "You know how fast those boy scouts move?" "Now, here's something more your speed." "Gotta be at least 200 points." "If they scatter, go for the baby and the mother." "Come on!" "Quick!" "Quick!" "Go for the baby!" "The baby!" "That's it." "Come get baby." "Bye-bye, baby." "Hello, 70 points." "Hey!" "I'm off the air!" "Would you please take your places?" "Put Grace on with an interview, right now." "Hello, ladies." "Isn't this just the most exciting race in years?" "I certainly think so." "And guess what - I have a surprise for you." "Mrs. Rhonda Bainbridge, in person, on my show." "The widow of Edward Bainbridge, whom, as we all know, was "Machine Gun" Joe Viterbo's first score." "Welcome to my home." "And may I call you Rhonda?" "Please do, Mrs. Pander." " Are we about ready here?" " Yeah, just about." "Listen, we have to go right away." "As the widow of the race's first score." "You have won a high-style two-room apartment in Acapulco!" "Start the jam!" "And next year you will be watching the race on a 50-inch three-dimensional octaphonic T-video set..." "Fellow oppressed Americans." "The execution of the barbarian killer Nero the Hero is the people's first stroke against the evil and corrupt regime of Mr. President." "I am Thomasina Paine, founder and commander of the army of the resistance." "For 20 years." "Americans have been told when to eat and when to sleep." "When to love and when to hate." "The age of obedience is over." "In the names of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Harry Truman," "I call upon you to stand up for your inalienable rights." "We declare war upon the Bipartisan Party, on Mr. President, and on that most inhuman desecration of life and liberty, the Transcontinental Road Rape." "I thank you." " What the hell was that?" " I have no information." " Is this race still on?" " I have no information." " What do you think?" " About what?" "About that speech." "Adds spice to the race." ""Spice"?" "They've killed Nero." "That would have got more points for me." "Don't you understand?" "They've declared war on the race and on you." "Aren't you worried?" "The only thing that worries me is "Machine Gun" Joe Viterbo." "Is winning all you care about?" "Yes." "It's the only standard of excellence left." " Come on." "Here they come." " It's not finished." "Come on!" "Look at that stupid hole right in the middle." "They won't get through there." "Blitzkrieg!" "As the drivers converge from their routes and head for the first pit stop in St. Louis." "Machine Gun Joe is still leading the field." "With Frankenstein second." "Calamity Jane third." "Leaving Matilda the Hun in fourth position and Calamity Jane facing another calamity!" "Right now." "Frankenstein's score points put him just ahead of Joe..." "Hey!" "Get off the rope." "Jesus Chrysler, get off the rope!" "Hey, dummy, come on over and hold the ladder." "This aggravates me." "Where's the one that says "Welcome Joe Viterbo"?" "Score the son of a bitch, Joe." "You need every point you can get." "I only mashed him slightly." " Put him out of his misery, Joe." " Is that fair?" " Yeah!" " Hey." "Should I let him go?" "Fair's always right." "One thing before we begin." "The government would like it if nobody said anything about Nero." "Understand?" "He hit a tree, and that's it." "Got it?" " We don't wanna depress anybody by..." " Hey, hey." "Everybody knows he was blown up by the resistance, you schmuck." "It was on television." "If you wanna drive again next year, Mr. Viterbo, keep those opinions to yourself." "OK." "Go ahead." "This is Grace Pander from St Louis, where Matilda - a dear friend of mine - is receiving a well-deserved rub down." "Tell me, Tilly, darling, what can we expect from you when the cars go back on the road?" "You can expect a victory... by a member of the master race." "A woman." "Tilly, darling, that certainly is showing a lot of confidence for someone who's lying fourth out of four." "She doesn't mind, as long as she's lying somewhere." "When I'm through with you, you're gonna be lying in state." "If anybody is going to boot hill, it's you and your Bizz Bang." " Buzz Bomb." " Shut up." "You just leave my navigator alone." "Girls, girls, girls." "Remember you're on TV-land." "Pete, how do you like being a navigator?" "Well, Junior, I'd like it more if I was in the driver's seat." "You'll get what's coming to you on the road." "Oh, yeah?" "What's coming to me is the final solution to the cowgirl problem." "Frankenstein, when are you gonna make your move?" "Are you gonna take off-road chances for scores, or are you driving all-out to be first into New L. A?" "It's not about winning, it's how you play the game." "Frankenstein - a dear friend of mine." "Frankenstein, tell me how it feels when, at that electric instant, at 200 mph, life and death coexist at the moment of scoring." "If you stand in the middle of Route 66 tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, you can answer that question for yourself." "What are you doing?" "Get away from me." "Joe will go nuts!" "Just tell him I was whispering sweet nothings in your ear." "Well, Myra, what did Frankenstein have to say to you?" "H- h-h-he didn't say anything." "He..." " What'd he say?" " Nothing..." " What'd he say?" "!" " Nothing!" "I'm not playing games, Myra." "I wanna know what he said." "He said there was nothing sweet in my ear." ""In my ear. "" "What do you want?" "My name is Laurie, Mr. Frankenstein." "I'm head of Chapter Seven, St Louis Lovers of Frankenstein." " I was chosen from over 100 girls..." " To offer me your body?" "Is that it?" "You want me because I drive the Monster and wear this costume." "No, Mr. Frankenstein." "That wouldn't be fair to your navigator." "It's taken her years of hard work to earn that privilege." "Besides, we understand your feelings." "What do you know of my feelings?" "Everything." "Like..." "Like why you're afraid of falling in love." "And why winning the race means everything to you." "How do you know these things?" "From my dreams, partly." "And from letters I get from other fans." "Plus the club subscribes to an astrology service." "Well, if you're not here to offer me your body, what do you want?" "I wanted to meet you, Mr. Frankenstein." "I wanted you to know who I am." "So it would have meaning." "I don't understand." "So what would have meaning?" "We love you, Mr. Frankenstein." "I know just saying it doesn't mean much." "Why do you love me?" "Because I kill people?" "Scoring isn't killing, Mr. Frankenstein." "It's part of the race." "You're a national hero, and we want you to know we're with you 100%." "Good night, Mr. Frankenstein." "I didn't hear you come in." "Who were you expecting?" "Machine Gun Joe?" "I thought I could trust you." "You really just don't wanna give me a chance, do you?" "I was trying to help you." "I'm... sorry." "You're what?" "Sorry." "He wanted to know our route, so I told him to go down 54 through the Cimarron Valley." "54 is a dead end." "Leads nowhere." "That's right." "And if Joe takes it, he's sunk." "The only way Joe will take that road is if he sees us do it first." "Or if he's ahead of us." " Is that the arm that came off in '98?" " Mm-hm." "And... which one of those obviously perfect legs was it that came off in '99?" "The right." "And the left one was just broken in six places and burned down to the bone." " Is that right?" " Mm-hm." "It's a miracle you can still walk." "Do you like to dance?" "Those Swiss mechanics sure did a good job on you." "What else did they replace?" "Wait a minute... and I'll show you." "O Mr. President, bless thy children and make them strong." "Bless thy daughters Matilda and Jane, and thy son Joe." "And bless thy beloved son, the immortal Frankenstein, who has given so much pleasure to so many." "The hell with Frankenstein." "What about Joe Viterbo?" "The flag is down and they're away, with Machine Gun Joe blasting into the lead on this second lap of the great Transcontinental Road Race." "Frankenstein is making a left turn, splitting early from the pack." "Look out, all you folks just south of here." "Gee, Joe, there's nobody even close behind us." "Shh." "Where's he going?" "What's he doing?" " Hey, where are we going?" " I dropped my glove." "Let not the ruin of thy robes destruct the tires..." "Jesus Chrysler!" "Ladies and gentlemen, by a bizarre accident" "Frankenstein has killed our cherished colleague the deacon of the Bipartisan Party." "I think you did that on purpose." "Have to give the fans something to talk about." "It's my obligation as a national hero." "Frankenstein's score is now..." "Does that score count, Harold?" "An interesting point, Junior, and one that may set a significant precedent." "Can a racer score a race official?" "Ooh, and after all those nice things he said about him." "It don't matter." "It don't count." "You can't score religious personalities." "The word "deacon" has been handed down to us from the ancient... the, uh..." "Frankenstein's score has been approved for 50 points." "The confirmation has just been handed to me." "You know what that means, Junior?" "That means that the race officials from coast to coast will be falling like flies." " Frankenstein!" "Agh!" "I hate him." "I hate him." " Oh, sh..." "You're salivating." "Oh, my..." "Why did she do that?" "To show me she loves me." "Here they come." "Let's get set." "Chicken game." " Chicken in a basket." " Chicken in a casket." "Oh, shit!" "Yeah, hey." "Who got the last laugh now, huh?" " The turnoff, it's coming up." " Should I take it?" " Who gives a goddamn shit?" " Should I?" "She says I should, so I should, right?" "Or should I?" "I don't know." "I don't think you should." "I think it's definitely a trick." "I'll do it." "I won't do it." "I'd be a schmuck to do it." "I did it and I'm no schmuck!" " That's your story." " That's right." "That's right." "And I see you mess with Frankenstein again, I'm really gonna bust your eye." "What do you mean, "really"?" "I have an almost unlimited score possibility, but it's pretty far down the road." "District penitents' compound." "All those old congressmen chained up." "They'd be like sitting ducks." "Yeah, and all I gotta do is drive through a cyclone fence." "Uh-uh." "Look, the farther west we go, the fewer targets there'll be." "Hey, come on." "Joe's already on his way to a dead end, and the other two..." "OK." "Take the next right." "Now, as soon as the car gets within range, I shall give the signal." "We'll have just under a minute after they reach the turnoff." "Lieutenant Fury..." "Lieutenant Fury has nothing whatever to do with this." "I want none of his surprises here." "I could stand for a surprise." "Like if your Frankenstein didn't show up." "Don't worry." "He'll show." "What's our estimated time of arrival in Albuquerque?" "Well, I'm not sure." "I mean, this detour is gonna make a difference." "Haven't you calculated our time of arrival?" "I did, but I couldn't take into consideration..." " Take what into consideration?" " Frankenstein!" "Stop the car!" "Hold on." " What the hell?" " Don't stop now." "What are you doing?" "What are they doing?" "Sorry, brother." "If that's the best the resistance can do, we got nothing to worry about." "I guess not." "One thing I can't figure out is why would they bother to dress that guy up to look like me?" "Maybe he was a fan." "Who built this stinkin' road?" "If I ever get my hands on him, I'll rip his heart out." "I mean it!" "I'm sick of this race and I'm sick of you!" "I guess it must have been Joe that set us up for that ambush, don't you think?" "Got in touch with those guys and told them where we were going?" "I guess it might have been." "But then how the hell did Joe know we were gonna take a detour?" "Maybe it was those guys on the pit crew in St. Louis." "Took your book out of the car while you were getting massaged." "I didn't leave my book in the car." " You didn't, huh?" " No." "Well, then, I guess it couldn't have been them." " Who do you think it was?" " I have no idea." "Why do you care?" "They didn't get you." "Us." "They didn't get us." "We're a team, remember?" "Come on over to my side." "You're gonna drive for a while." "Why?" "I'm not trained as a driver." "Never mind why." "Just do as I tell you." "I'm counting on you to make a nice big score for us." "Sure." "Anything special in mind?" "Something'll turn up." "I'm sure that it will." "Jesus H Christ!" "I'll kill that broad!" " What did I do?" " Shut your face." "Cornball, what's the fastest way through here?" "Well, um... actually, the only way we do it is we get a bulldozer and we trim this edge down here and we drive through." "No, what's the best way between here and Albuquerque?" " You got to go back to the main highway." " I'll lose 45 minutes!" "I've seen you before." "I'm one of your greatest fans, you know that?" "I follow all of the races." "I got pictures of you all over the outhouse." "I named my favorite dog after you, Mr. Frankenstein." "I did." "Lousy stinkin' dirt ball." "You got two seconds to live." "Come on, Pete, honey." "You gonna take all day with that?" "I wanna get on the road, make a few more scores." "My blood lust is fading." "Almost finished, Calamity, sweetheart." "We'll be back on the road in no time, then we'll cream that Nazi's ass for her." "What'd you say?" "I..." "Blitzkrieg!" "You lousy bitch!" "I'll kill you for that!" "Nobody scores my navigator and gets away with it." "Uh-oh." "Here she comes." "And boy, is she pissed." "What does she expect?" "You leave your navigator lying around, naturally somebody's gonna run over him." "She's gaining on us, momma, and she's got murder on her mind." "Schnell." "Meine kleine Buzz Bomb." " That's good." " All right, on three." "One, two, three." "Support it." "Easy." "Steady as she goes." "Here they come!" "A detour." "I really needed that right now." "Holy shit." "A special bulletin." "There's been an accident." "An explosion." "It looks like Matilda has been blown totally..." "Correction." "Matilda has made an impressive score." "Stand by." "Don't you wanna take over now?" "I'm afraid I'm making us lose an awful lot of time." "You're doing just fine." " Looks like an easy score." " Yeah." "Yeah, it does." "It's always best to start small." " I missed him." " It takes some practice." " Before it comes easy?" " It never comes easy." "Keep your eyes on the road." "How far is it to the penitents' compound?" "Oh, maybe 20 miles." "Stop the car." "Get out." "Out." "Come to the other side." "Around the front." "Where is the penitents' compound?" "It's in Japan." "Get in." "I could just push you out of this car and pick up a quick 30 points." "Who are you?" "Who are you working for?" "I'm Thomasina Paine's granddaughter." "I'm honored." "So you were gonna capture me and replace me with that goon back there." "What for?" "He was going to deliver our ultimatum to Mr. President." "Your life in exchange for the permanent abolition of the race." "She was a great." "Dear friend of mine." "And I shall remember her forever." "Howling down that freeway in the sky." "Knocking over the angels." "The valiant Hun's demise was in fact caused by enemies of the people." "There will be a special broadcast by Mr. President at 1900 hours." "Stay tuned to find out how you can help Mr. President preserve our way of life..." "Calamity, turn off the television." "Hey, you guys wanna stop playing that song, please?" "Look, this is a race, a sporting event, not a daredevil stunt." "I want some protection." "You should have given us an escort after Nero got it." "Joe would score the escort, wouldn't you, baby?" "You wanna zip your lip, Myra?" "Huh?" "Now, are you going to cover me or not?" "Look, Mr. Viterbo, if you're afraid to go on with the race, why don't you quit?" "You're calling me a turkey?" "If you ask me, you're all making excuses for poor driving." "Poor driving?" "!" "Listen, honey." "Matilda the Hun was a champion driver." "Nobody could've scored my navigator and gotten away with it." "And he's talking about poor driving!" "I'd like to see you do it." "I've been driving for ten years." "Nobody talks to me like this." " This stinks." " It's all on account of the rebels." "Who mentioned anything about rebels?" "There are no rebels." "Understand?" "Then who was that old lady on the television?" "Thomasina Paine." "She's a harmless lunatic." "Would you please come outside, sir?" "We like to ask you a few questions." " Come on, Annie." " Alone, if you don't mind." "Mr. President will explain those accidents during his address to the nation." " How did she jam the networks?" " And bump off our friends?" "She didn't bump off anybody." "She walked into a television station waving a gun, forced them to put her on the air." "We've taken her back to the asylum." "That's it." " I got just two words to say about that." " Oh?" "Bull shit!" "Excuse me." "Hey!" "I told you to stop playing that song!" "You forget, Joe, that I'm a representative of Mr. President's government." "I happen to hold the power of life and death." "Yeah?" "Well, I happen to hold the clam sauce." "Look out, Viterbo." "You may be the second biggest clown in this circus, but if I want you dead, you're dead." " Second biggest?" " Sit down and eat!" "I told you to stop playing that music!" "Were they armed, or did they expect the fire to be enough to stop you?" "I don't know what they expected." "We just ran through it all and kept going." "One more question, Mr. Frankenstein." "Did you take that particular road on your own initiative, or on the advice of your navigator?" "On my own initiative." "Thank you, Mr. Frankenstein." "That will be all." "There has been a lot of talk about American rebels." "We have positive proof that it was none other than the treacherous French who have been sabotaging our great race." "Just as they and their stinking European allies have undermined and destroyed our great national economy." "It is no coincidence." "My dear children." "That the word "sabotage" was invented by the French." " Where's Annie?" " I don't know." "Hey, did you hear the news?" "Mr. President said it was the French who knocked off Nero and Matilda." "Watch out for the crêpe suzettes." "... "Machine Gun" Joe Viterbo and Frankenstein." "As they begin the last lap of their long and difficult journey toward New Los Angeles." "Drop your keys?" "I was just looking for something I lost." "The race?" "Look, Joe..." "I threw you off course, OK?" "All's fair in love and war." "I'm glad to hear you say that, Annie, because what we got goin' here definitely ain't love." "Well, then, why don't we just forget about it?" "You know, Annie, it's too bad things ain't like they were in the old days, when we'd just take somebody in an alley and blow their brains out." "You know?" " Joe, please." " Go ahead and scream, Annie." " You're hurting me, Joe." " There's nobody to hear you." "Huh?" "How does it feel to know you're gonna spend the rest of your life in pain?" "The rest of your life is about a minute and a half." "Frankie." "Glad you came." "I caught your navigator screwing' around with the car, so I thought I'd come down and have a look at what was going on." "Hey, come on, Frank..." "Upstairs." "So much for a fair fight." "Next chance I get, you're dead." "What were you doing?" "Getting more secret instructions from the lunatic fringe?" "Why don't you just turn me in and get it over with?" "No need to." "You've blown your cover." "You're no threat to me." "Anyway, you're not someone I would throw away." " I have a job to do." " Your job is a waste of time." "The world doesn't wanna be saved." "I'm giving you a chance to save one small part of it." "Yourself." "Who are you anyway?" "Nobody." "I was brought up in a government training centre to be what I am " "Frankenstein, the best driver on earth." "This year." "They use one up, they bring in another." " But I will be the last of the line." " Oh, who's kidding who?" "I never kid." "Why don't you ever take off that glove?" "What's underneath it?" "It's my secret." "You and the Swiss doctors again?" "There are no Swiss doctors." "Just native..." "American... know-how." " Have you checked the oil?" " Yes." " Have you checked the hydraulics?" " An hour ago." " Brakes?" "Tires?" "Water?" " Yeah, they're OK." "Everything's OK." "Don't worry." "I'm not going to do anything to sabotage the car." "You get a load of that face?" "I wonder if somebody got points for that eye." "Listen, Frankenstein, there's just you, me and Joe left in the race, and..." "Well, I just want you to know that whoever wins and whatever happens, it's been really grand racing' with you folks." "I also wanna say that I think you make a real nice couple." " Thank you, Jane." " Good luck." "Joe, Myra," "I just wanna say, whatever happens, whoever wins..." "Hey, save it for the French." "The cars have started, lined up, and are ready to roll on the last lap." "They're off!" "Frankenstein..." "Holy Chrysler!" "Joe has just scored his own pit crew!" "You lousy sons of bitches!" "That'll teach you!" ""Machine Gun" Joe Viterbo, that funny man from Chicago, has scored his own mechanics for 40 points, and is off to catch Calamity Jane and Frankenstein." "Screw you, Joe Viterbo, and your mother!" "We'll see who gets to New L.A. First, with the highest score too." "It's coming up on the left." "Forget it." "I'm keeping Frankie in my sights." "He's got five minutes on us, and he's stretching it." "So what?" "If there's trouble up ahead, he'll find it first." "Oh, yeah." "Take a look at your face." "You'll find it first." "You know, Myra, some people might think you're cute." "But me, I think you're one very large baked potato." "Roaring down Motorway 66 towards California," "Frankenstein looks certain to be first across the line." "But Machine Gun Joe is still way ahead on points, and he could win the race even by arriving second in New Los Angeles." "What's your prediction, Grace?" "You know, Junior, when Machine Gun Joe was just a little boy in Chicago, he had a pet snake that he used to love to ride over with his tricycle." " Break out the thermos of hi-pro drink." " Coming right up." " Here." "I didn't mean to hog it all." " Thanks." "What flavor is it?" " Vanilla." " Hm." "Not my favorite." "This isn't vanilla." "It's peach or something." "Yeah, well, my taste buds got wiped out in the crash of '97." "It's a good thing mine that are still intact." "At least the French can't poison us." "What's Frankenstein's location now?" "He's about 50 miles out, Lieutenant, and coming fast." "Goodbye, Mrs. Paine." "When you see me again, Frankenstein will be my prisoner and the country will know we must be taken seriously." " Fury, wait." "I'm coming with you." " No, Mrs. Paine, it's too dangerous." "Nonsense." "I've waited 20 years for this moment." "I know I can't join you on the mission, but I want to see you pull it off with my own eyes." "Couple of turnoffs coming up." "What's the quickest way to New L. A?" " That's funny." " What?" "I can't..." "I can't seem to focus my eyes on the map." "I think we stay on 7..." "I feel like I'm gonna pass out." "Look at that." " It's them, isn't it?" " Please... please, stop the car." "Sorry." "We're in a race." "Frankenstein, stop right now." "We wanna talk to you." "Stop before I force you to." "I'll bomb you to a halt if I have to." "Annie, help me." "Turn off the engine." "Annie's dead, Mrs. Paine." "He must have killed her." "Now I'm really going to let him have it." "Look at that." "The rebels are sure giving it to Frankenstein." "Thank you, rebels." "Mary, I think we got this race won." " Aren't we gonna help him?" " Are you nuts or something?" "I'm getting my ass out of here before they make an emergency landing." "Sit down." "Attagirl." "Well, America, there you have it." "Frankenstein has just been attacked by the French air force, and he's whipped their derrières." "His point total for this one'll be something astronomical." "Machine Gun Joe better watch out." " Right on schedule." " Hey, what happened?" "I slipped you a 30-minute sleepex." "Didn't want you doing something we would both regret." "Did they attack us?" "According to the radio, we were attacked by the French air force." "Was the plane shot down?" "Even those Swiss doctors couldn't have helped them." "I'm sorry." "I know they were your people." "But I can't let anything stop me now." "They didn't expect you to give up easily." "They were prepared for whatever happened." "Oh, my God, you've been hit!" "I'll make it." "I'm sorry things worked out this way." " It's not over yet." " I'm afraid it is." "Hey!" "What the hell do you think you're doing?" "It doesn't make any difference what happens to me." "That is the dumbest, sorriest thing I've ever heard you say." "I don't believe you've got a drop of Thomasina Paine's blood in your body." "The minute things get rough, you close your eyes and try to drive us off a cliff." "If you'd just stop trying to kill me for a minute, I need your help." "How can you possibly expect me to help you?" "You're my navigator." "You're the only one who knows where you're going." "I mean, whose side are you on anyway?" "I thought the only thing you cared about was winning the race." "Sure." "Only the winner of the race gets to shake hands with Mr. President." " Is that a grenade?" " A hand grenade." "That handshake is all I've lived for for as long as I can remember." "No, wait a minute." "I don't want you to die." "It's my life's work." "Why do you wanna win this race so bad?" "Why do I wanna win this race?" "In the name of hate." "One big victory for hate." "Give me your hand." "Give me your hand!" " Hey, stop." "Will you stop the car?" " Shut up!" "What is that?" "It's a hand." "Will you stop the goddamn car?" "Stop the car!" "You're going to have to shift the gears for me now." "The only thing that worries me is how am I going to shake hands with Mr. President?" "Mr. President's the one who should be worried now." "He's coming!" "Can you hear that engine?" "Still in perfect tune." "Here he is - the one and only three-time winner and sole survivor of the 20th annual Transcontinental Road Race, none other than Frankenstein himself!" "And now Mr. President." "Our enemy, the French, have destroyed nearly all our gallant racers." "Just as they have crippled our once-great economy, and wrecked our telephone system." "But even they, in all their evil power, were not able to destroy Frankenstein, who is the embodiment of our national virtue and therefore indestructible." "It is fitting that Frankenstein should be the one chosen by your president to lead you in this war against the French which I now decree." "Frankenstein has been shot!" "There is a French spy in our midst!" "Guards, seize that woman!" "Frankenstein, are you all right?" "Annie!" "Frankenstein..." "Frankenstein!" "Frankenstein!" "Frankenstein!" "Frankenstein!" "Frankenstein!" "Frankenstein!" "Frankenstein!" "Frankenstein!" "Frankenstein!" "Mr. And Mrs. President Frankenstein - dear friends of mine - can you tell us what your first official acts will be?" "I plan to pension off the secret police, restore free elections, end minority privilege, and move the seat of government back to New Los Angeles." "We've been governed from abroad long enough." "Mr. President, is it true that you are now accepting rebels into your government?" "Well, since I have accepted one into my house..." "President Frankenstein has appointed my great-grandmother, Thomasina Paine, in view of her experience in the field, as the minister for domestic security." "And I plan to deal very harshly with rebels." "Anybody who is unhappy with happiness can go find someplace else to live." " What about the race?" " The race is abolished." " Abolished?" " That's right." "We feel that the country no longer needs this gratuitous display of violence to show the world that its virility is still intact." "Mr. President, isn't it true that as a racer your popularity depended on violence?" "I'm afraid I shall have to let my press secretary answer that question." "Stop annoying Mr. President with impertinent questions, Junior." "It's the race, man." "President Frankenstein, you can't call off the race." "The American people won't stand for it!" "Get out of the way, Junior." "The race is the symbol of everything we hold dear - our American way of life." "Sure, it's violent." "But that's the way we love it." "Violent, violent, violent." "And that's why we love you!" "Frank, do we have to listen to this?" "No." "As to this matter of violence." "The technique of violence was first developed in 2.000.000 BC by the Australopithecines." "A tribe of four-foot primates who had no brains to speak of." "But who." "Nevertheless." "Invented the tomahawk and used it on each other." "This practice led to the enlargement of the brain - another useful weapon." "Yes." "Murder was invented even before man began to think." "Now. of course." "Man has become known as the thinking animal."

"Previously on warehouse 13..." "Claudia Donovan, Warehouse 13:" "Next generation." "Don't you want to be?" "With people your own age?" "Artie, I'm at my own age." "This place is my home." "Macpherson's headed east on st." "Catherine!" "I want what you risked your lives to get." "I can get Macpherson again." "I don't doubt it." "You came after family." "Arthur started it." "What is that supposed to mean?" "Ask him." "15 YEARS AGO" "Don't quote warehouse dogma to me, Arthur!" "A woman's life is at stake." "Many people's lives are at stake!" "And you made an oath." " I love her." "I will save her." "You love her." "I know that you love her too." "Then you know how agonizing this is for me." "You can save her life!" "What about the consequences?" "She lives, other people die!" "You want that on your head?" "You can't play god!" "Well, neither can you." "Neither you nor physics nor the regents." "They sit in there, Arthur, and they hoard the things that can save the world." "We help them." "Well, not anymore." "I'm finished with it." "Now, give me that!" "No." "No!" "I can't." "Arthur..." "Arthur." "Five firemen died that night." "Only the woman survived." "Who was she?" "Carol Augustine." "She lives in D. C." "Now, alone, as far as we know." "And she was Macpherson's wife?" "Yes." "Did they ever nail the murdering son of a" "Macpherson was given five consecutive life sentences and banished from the warehouse." "So obviously Macpherson escaped." "After serving two years in confinement, there was an unexplained explosion in the prison." "Dozens were killed." "We were told that Macpherson was among them." "We were misinformed." "Then he shows up at the Japanese embassy in D. C." "We've had carol under surveillance ever since." "I've been monitoring the D. C. Operation, and he hasn't made any contact." "No, he went after my family instead." "I can understand why Artie's obsessed with him." "Well, this guy has no trouble killing anybody, does he?" "As you go after him, you'd do well to remember that." "Come on" "So how do you banish somebody from the warehouse anyway?" "It's sounds very Romeo Juliet." "No, no, no, there's nothing romantic about it." "The walls of this warehouse are infused with this very rare mineral called painite." "And before Macpherson was incarcerated, he was permanently injected with a substance that reacts violently when in proximity of this painite." "Violently?" "Could you be a tad more specific with your modifiers?" "I could." "If Macpherson ran through this warehouse, then his blood would turn acidic and immediately eat through his own veins." "Dude... indeed." "Where are you, by the way?" "Already through the middle east, heading into north Africa-I'll find him." "Yeah?" " It's what I does." "Well, you may have met your match when it comes to hacking through what Macpherson- oh, yes." "Who da best?" "You got a nibble?" "A chomp." " What?" "Edgar Allen Poe's pen." "For sale." "No." "Let me see." "Excuse me." ""To view the rest of this elite collection..." "" collection?" "Why would he be selling artifacts if-don't don't click that!" "Um, I always run a virus scan before I enter an unknown site." "That's a good idea." " So yeah... oh, no." "No, no, no, no, no." "You do not shut down the claudiometer." "I'm terribly, terribly sorry." "Life in the cyber world, bro." "Gonna need a sec." "You know, you could try - touch it and die." "WASHINGTON, DC" "Thank you for waiting, sir." "Mr. Freitag, I feel that this may be of particular interest to you." "What, exactly, does this do, Mr. Macpherson?" "Run your fingers along the rim." "Oh, god!" "Consider it a gift." "A taste of things to come." "Mr. Macpherson, what other artifacts will be for sale?" "Mr. Pak, already greedy for more I see." "Well, I am in the process of collecting others as we speak." "But in the meantime, behold the phoenix." "This is the reason why we are here in my factory-this demonstration?" "Very perceptive, Mr. Freitag." "Yes, I didn't think that cautious gentlemen, such as yourselves, would want to spend this kind of money on hearsay or legend." "You would be correct." "Carson, would you just hold this for a moment?" "Thank you." "What are you doing, man?" "Wait!" "Stop!" "He'll die in there." "Patient!" "Patience." "Yes." "There." "As you see, in the right hands, this can be uniquely useful." "What is it?" "What's wrong with them?" "Cause and effect, gentlemen." " Cause and effect." "Even anomalies are bound by their own laws of nature." "Insignificant collateral damage." "But appropriate for a demonstration." "Mr. Macpherson, make it stop." "It cannot be stopped." "For every life the phoenix saves, others will be lost." "Those who touch the phoenix, they will be spared." "But others are less fortunate." "You dare to do this in my factory?" "A demonstration, Mr. Freitag." "If you haven't the stomach for it, perhaps the phoenix is not for you." "Gentlemen... can you imagine this tool in the hands of one of your patriots?" "The commitment of a suicide bomber who never, ever dies." "I managed to crash the computer system, so I'm sorry, till we're up and running, deaf, dumb, and blind." "Don't worry, I'll get us back online." "A girl loves a challenge." "Oh, that's just great." "The fate of the warehouse in the hands of a 16-year-old kid." "Perfect." " Okay,19.19" "And the same kid who found you and hacked into supersecretville once already." "Okay?" "A little faith, please." "Why is he selling the pen?" "I mean, god knows what else he's got." "What is he up to?" "Okay, let's go over what we don't know." "That could take weeks." "Months." " Years." "Look, Artie, you must have forgotten something." "You know Macpherson better than anybody." "There must be some small detail that you've overlooked." "Yeah, something insignificant." "A contact he might have used." "A favorite place." "A relative." "Just... you two are what, interrogating me?" "They're investigating." "That's why we hired them." "Is it not?" "Um, so about carol." "How do you know about carol?" "What did-what-you told them?" "Everything?" "No, of course you did." "Of course you did." "No wonder I'm getting the third degree." "You think you might have asked me before you just blurt it out?" "Agent Nielsen!" "You're forgetting yourself." "Arthur, no one knows what he's capable of better than you." "Except, possibly, me." "Bering and agent lattimer will need to know everything if they're to survive this." "Everything." "Yeah." "Sorry." "You're right." "It's just that I never should have gone to see Caroline the first place." "When Macpherson went to D. C... and the years have just twisted his thinking." "I just didn't know if I was putting her life in danger." "The three of you need to speak to her." "No." "No, no, no." "I've already put enough of a spotlight on that woman." "You've got no choice, Arthur." "She's our only lead." "Dude Don't sweat it." "I'll cover it from here." "After being magnetized to the ceiling and nearly ground up in the gooery," "I think I'm prepped." "What?" "Why are you shaking your jowls at me?" "You should all get going." "I'll stay with Claudia, and she will brief me on those two events." "No matter what he said, you're not safe." "I haven't seen James Macpherson in 15 years." "I never even visited him in prison." "Well, that's hard to believe since he saved your life." "Others died that night in my place." "I wouldn't have made that choice." "And I have never forgiven James for making it for me." "Artie knows that." "You like fresh-cut flowers." "I beg your pardon." " They're all around the apartment." "Well, as you said, I like them." "There's a jewelry box in the trash with some wrapping paper." "I had a birthday." " Your birthday 'sin four months." "We're very good at the Google." "There's two umbrellas behind me." "One's pink, one's black." "Was it raining three days ago?" " I think it was." "He's not the man you think he is." "he's changed." " Carol... carol..." "Listen to me." "I would like to protect you from whatever the hell it is he's planning to do." "God, you know, you come barging in here disrupting my life." "He's only been here few times." "When was the last?" "Three days ago." "Oh, well, it's easy to understand how you would have forgotten that." "What's this?" "I have no idea." " Let me see that." "This is an Egyptian symbol." "It's a was scepter." "It represents power." "The deities used to carry this around as a sign of their control over the forces of chaos." "It's funny... it's the same as the pendant you're wearing around your neck." "Oh, let me see that." "That's very nice." "It's from James?" " Yes." "You know I have to ask you for it, carol." "Amazing." "You think working in some magical storage unit gives you the right to do as you please?" "Stop protecting him." "I never could decide, does Mrs. Frederic hire arrogant people, or do you just get arrogant by working there?" "What is it?" " I got a really bad feeling." "About what?" "Well, I think it's about..." "Artie." "I think-I think he's gonna- never mind." "It's gone now." "6166 Broadview." "Ironically, the warehouse district." "We are up and running." "Taking her to warp speed, captain." "Okay, do you think you can hack into Macpherson's site?" "Well, yeah, duh." "But major fire-wall age." "I mean, you get past one, and there's another one set up right at" "Claudia." "Claudia, what's wrong?" "Who's that?" "That's him." "That-that's James Macpherson?" "Claudia... leena..." "I know him." "How?" "He was Joshua's physics professor." "I mean, I was just a kid, but I remember that face." "He was the one who gave joshua rheticus's compass." "He contacted me." "What?" "When?" "Eight months ago." "I was tracking Artie, trying to find this place, and I hit a snag." "And out of the blue I hear from professor Reynolds, right." "He "friends" me." "We email back and forth." ""How's Joshua?"Blah blah blah." "I fill him in, tell him about my project, and he suggests a few ways around the firewall." "The warehouse firewall?" "Leena, I think James Macpherson helped me hack into the warehouse." "Tool and die factory?" "Why tool and die." "What is he doing?" "I don't know, maybe he's got a new career." "He doesn't exactly strike me as the blue-collar type." "All right, this is-this is a German machine, I think." "I think they all are." "Why would he go to the trouble - can I help you?" "We're not open to the public." "We're looking for James Macpherson." "There's no one here by that name." "Do you know him?" "Who are you?" "Secret service." "We're gonna need to look around." "Yes, well, by all means make yourself at home." "What are you doing?" "Close your eyes." "Okay." "All right." "Just close your eyes." "There." "You can hear me?" "Oh!" "Yeah." " Yes?" "All right." "Okay?" " Okay." "Artie, what was that?" "That was the goblet of Severan." "A goblet of Severan because, obviously, the goblet's in the warehouse, so there must have been another one that survived." "Well, I bet I can guess what it does." "Pete, put this glass in your pocket." "This-this-this was designed by a roman glass blower in 221 for the emperor Elagabalus, who was a ridiculously incompetent young man." "The only way he could get a room quiet was by using this thing." "It emitted a high-pitched sound and brought everyone to their knees." "I could've used one of those in high school." "Indeed." "All right, so just, um-Artie, this has that egyptian symbol on it." "The was scepter." " Yes." "Maybe carol's... like... this." "And now it... opens." "Always interesting." "Hold this." "The phoenix." " What?" "It's the phoenix." " Wait, wait." "Let me see, let me see." "I look great in glasses." "Oh, my-that is amazing!" "What?" "What is that?" ""Starting bid $20 million"?" "It says that?" " Yeah, it's like a catalog." "But the phoenix is in the warehouse." "He's selling it?" "20 million, and that's just the starter." "No, he can't have it." "It's in the warehouse." "That doesn't make any sense." "Why would he sell it?" "I mean, he's not doing this for the money." "Yeah, what kind of a villain would he be?" "Listen to me." "The phoenix is in the warehouse." "He doesn't have it." "Well-but even if he did have it, right, he's not doing this for the money." "No, he's not doing it for the money." "He's doing it for another reason." "I just don't know what." "Here, check it." "This is too easy." "He wants us to find these things." "Exactly, which is what's making me very, very nervous about following this lead." "And making me very nervous... about dragging the two of you with me." "Don't even worry about that." " No, no, no." "All right, fine." "Yes, obviously it's a trap of some sort." "But he would know that I know it's a trap." "So what is he planning, knowing that I know he knows?" "Guys, this-this has the date, time, and address of the auction, and... it's today." "The auction is today." "Is she certain?" "She claims that Macpherson was posing as Joshua's professor." "That's how he made his initial contact." "She's very upset." "Where is she now?" "At the B.N.B." "Your bodyguard's keeping an eye on her." "What is it?" "I've just always felt that she was out of tune." "Something hovering." "I just could never tell what, exactly." "This is troubling." "Do you think that he could still be using her somehow?" "Yes." "Macpherson claims to have the phoenix." "The phoenix is in the warehouse." "I know." "I'll get back to you." "Now I'm getting angry." "When I told him the phoenix was gone, he was genuinely surprised and distraught." "Then he told me about the goblet of Severan." "Well, here it is." "Safe and sound." "Open it, please." "Okay." "That's not possible." "He can't possibly have access to warehouse things unless - yes." "These new video displays record access, do they not?" "Hang on." "There's my access, which was a few moments ago." "Let me just toggle back to see the last person..." "Macpherson certainly knowhow to pick his spots." "This is Frederic." " Go ahead, I'll catch up." "I feel like Custer walking into little big horn." "If he wanted us dead, he's had several opportunities." "This-this is about something else." "All right, well, what?" "This is the place." "This is the time." "There's nothing here." "Hey, guys, the phoenix and the goblet of Severan..." "Mrs. Frederic says it's been taken from the warehouse." "And she seemed shaken." "Mrs. Frederic?" " Yeah." "Seemed shaken?" " Yeah." "That is so not comforting." "Oh, great, great." "So what do we do now?" "Just wait for Macpherson to drop a net on us?" "If he's ahead of us and we can't see him, then we're gonna have to follow the trail he leaves until we can see him." "And we watch each other's backs." "What?" " Good afternoon." " Nothing." "Nothing." "Do you see that?" "Did-did the boy cause this?" "Artie, Artie, you still got those glasses?" "Good idea." "You know... oh, I thought I knew what these were-this is-but they're not the originals." "He replicated timothy leary's reading glasses, but why?" "Check these out." "The guy who gave us Isd?" "Dr. Leary experimented with a lot of different ways to see beyond what our brains are capable of seeing." "Okay, can I see those, please?" "You know, the originals, when you put them on, you never want to take 'em off." "Tell me about it." " Artie?" " Yeah." "Um, that wooden box." "Can I see that?" "Thank you." "Fancy!" "James always did have a flair for the dramatic." " Ladies first." " What?" "Uh, yeah, age before beauty." "What?" "He's older than me." "He's older than both of us put together." "All right, shut up." "Hold that." "Children." "I'm working with children." "Okay... hand that to me." " Be careful." " Here" "Okay, don't tilt it." "I've got my lunch in there." "Okay." "These are warehouse 13 crates there." "Okay, it's-it's really bad again." " What is?" "Your vibe?" " Yeah." "About...?" "Yes." "Well, when did you get it again?" "As soon as we walked in here." "It just kicked me in the gut." "Are you sure?" "Yeah, that's why I'm telling you." "Yeah, but you can't tell him unless you're positive." "Okay, stop, stop." "What are you talking about?" "What vibe?" "About me?" " Yeah." " What about me?" "Look, I don't know." "Artie, man, I hate this." " Just tell me exactly what you're feeling." " It's nothing." "I mean, I don't know yet." "Look, Artie, all I know is I got a really bad feeling in the pit of my stomach." "Well, when you get a really specific feeling, just let me know, will you?" "You'll be the first." "Okay, look, down here... see?" " Yeah." " I'm gonna go down there alone." "Yes." "And I want you guys to go back around that way." " I think it meets up around the other side." " No, no, no, no!" "Artie!" "Artie!" "Artie!" "No!" "We shouldn't split up." "Look, if he really is planning an ambush, don't you think it's best that we're not all caught up in it?" "He does have a point." "He has a point." "Artie!" "Keep your Tesla handy." "I'm fine." "Go." "I don't want to tell you anything more about it because I'd prefer not to have any competition with anybody." "It's all true." "I've seen it with my own eyes." "A man rose from the ashes to survive the blast of a furnace." "And seeing truly is believing." "Wouldn't you say?" "Gentlemen, thank you all so much for joining me here today." "Mr. Pak, how are your ears?" "A little better?" "How's your vibe now?" " Not good." " It's nice to see you." "As Mr. Freitag has told you all..." " what's he doing?" " I don't know." "The price of this particular item at 20 million, U. S. Currency." "Okay, possibilities." "Um, Artie knocked Macpherson out and is pretending to take his place." "Yeah, but they knew him." "They called him "Mr. Nielsen." "" No, Macpherson has some kind of mind control over Artie." "Well, it's a strange way to use it." " Well..." " okay, Pete... what if Artie's trading in30 years at the warehouse for $20 million?" "Or... oh, snap!" "Artie is Macpherson." "Uh, no." "Oh come on, you don't actually believe that, do you?" "Hold it right there, buddy?" "Yeah, yeah, stay-stay there until we figure this out." "Cut it out, you two." "That's not me." "I'm me." "I'll make an exception." "How are we supposed to know that?" "Look." "Security cameras." "So?" "He's setting me up." "He tried to do it a few weeks ago with honjo masamune." "You don't remember?" "He went after the sword plus he dug up my past." "I was arrested for treason!" "This time he's gonna make sure it sticks." "That must be why Mrs. Frederic sounded so strange." "Oh, so what, did he go out and get an Artie suit?" "Huh?" "How do we know that you're not him pretending to be you?" "The thimble." "You really did read the whole manual, didn't you?" "I did." "What-what thimble?" "Harriet Tubman's thimble." "She wore it as she stitched the rags of her fellow slaves." "It became imbued with her dream of a better life." "And it developed properties of light refraction, so that people saw an image different from the image of the person wearing the thimble." "It came in very handy for the underground railroad during the civil war." "All right, well, let's just go in and blast him." "No, no, no, no, no, no." "No, he's expecting that." "Well, what's he not expecting?" "This-I didn't-no." "No." "There's no way." "Claudia." "Claudia!" "Leena..." "Mrs. Frederic, this place is my home." "I would never do anything to hurt any of you, least of all Artie." "We know you wouldn't." "Not on purpose." "What does that mean?" "Do you think he put some kind of bug in my brain or something?" "There are any number of methods to create sleeper agents." "Apparently Macpherson has amassed quite a collection of warehouse artifacts." "Then torture me." "You people do that." "You've gotta have some kind of truth serum laying around here somewhere." "Pump me full of it." "Read me!" "Read my colors." "Tell my fortune." "Whatever it is you do, you can tell, right?" "Yes, I can." "And I have." "Claudia, I'm sorry, but something is wrong." "Oh, my god." "I'm like the freakin' Manchurian candidate or something." "What the hell!" "Let her go." "For the time being it's best if she weren't in the warehouse." " What if she disappears?" " She's being watched." "I've never seen her this upset before." "That's what made James such an excellent agent." "He'd get inside your head, throw you off your game." "Just when you thought you had the upper hand, he'd strike." "48 million going once... twice... sold to Mr. Pak." "And when I get confirmation that the money is in our account, then the phoenix will be yours." "Wrong again, Arthur." "Remember these?" "Gentlemen, this next items something that we went to a great deal of trouble to acquire." "Edgar Allen Poe's notebook, and his pen." "Together they give their owner the unique ability to make what they write actually happen." " What is that?" " It's a fire alarm." " We must get out of here." " There's no need to panic." "Mr. Nielsen, I'd rather not be here when the authorities arrive." "Excellent point." "Next time, Mr. Nielsen." "Gentlemen... federal agents!" "Don't bother!" "I'm sorry you went to all that trouble getting Poe's pen." "I guess you wasted your time attacking my family." "Okay, pal, time for you to finally get yours." "Just don't kill him." "He's an excellent bodyguard." "I'd hate to lose him." "Wha-who the hell" "James Macpherson, you're under arrest." "Aren't you adorable?" "You didn't really think it was gonna be that easy, did you?" "Do you remember our old friend Erik?" "He made those wonderful implosion grenades, which I demonstrated for you a few weeks ago." "Before his untimely death, I had him bring back yet another old favorite-the eggshell bomb." "This time with a pinch of promethium." "If the slightest pressure cracks the shell, it results in a small nuclear reaction." "Small but dazzling." "Carson." "Now, you two drop those little toys of yours or Arthur will lose his footing." "Thank you." "Jaw getting tired, Arthur?" "It won't be long now." "You were a warehouse agent." "What the hell happened to you?" "15 years of exile." "And now I want to give Arthur back the gift he gave me." "But unfortunately, you're going to be tried for your crimes... posthumously." "You think?" "In your soul, you believe as I do." "That's the vibe you've been feeling." "How do you know what I'm feeling?" "Because I know you, Peter Lattimer, better than you know yourself." "I was you." "Shall I tell you the thought that crosses your mind occasionally?" "What if these artifacts really do belong out in the world, instead of being locked up by a gang of autocratic regents who see the universe through the blinders of their own bureaucracy?" "Walk out of here with me now... and follow what you know to be true in your soul." "That's a nice speech." "It sounds even better with the fancy accent." " But it still doesn't cover the fact that - you are out of your gourd, McNutty-pants!" "You put a bomb in a man's mouth." "Not really a great recruiting tool." "Fair enough." "Well, I'll be saying good-bye, then." "You expect us to just let you walk out of here?" "No, no, I expect you to die while you're trying to save Arthur." "And I'd say he's got about... 30 seconds." "Hey, Mac." "Good catch." "So we're never turning him into the government?" "The government?" "I don't think so." "He's already proven that prisons can't hold him." "So then, what happens to him?" "I mean, we're not going to, you know... no, no, no, no." "Although he would happily kill all of us without blinking an eye." "No, we don't operate like that." "We'll put him in the bronze sector." "Arthur, I'm honored." "Okay, I promise to read the manual this weekend, but what-what is the bronze sector?" "Actually, I don't remember that being in the manual." "The bronze sector, children, is where the most dangerous people in history have been, um... what's the generous phrase?" "Preserved." "Yes, preserved." "People whose removal from society had to be certain." "They're put in the bronze sector." "Locked for all eternity in warehouse 13?" "How poetic." "Even a twisted mind can be an artifact." "Let's go." "Aren't you forgetting something?" "Uh, not that I can think of." "My blood." "If I remember correctly, my veins will burst upon entry." "I say we give it a try, see what happens." "James... what a bittersweet reunion." "You've aged." "Mrs. Frederic, you haven't." "You must tell me your secret." "Perhaps on a warm summer day over tea." "Perhaps not." "All this time you've had them." "How simple." "I wish I'd thought of it." "What are those?" "Crystalline diamonds with a trace of palladium." "Palladium?" "It neutralizes the minerals in his blood." "So he doesn't go kablooey." "Unfortunately." "That is a load off my mind." "Good-bye, James." "Yeah." "Let's go." "So why is the bronze sector not in the manual?" "No, no, no, it's far too dangerous for there to be a written record." "If someone were to find this place, somehow reverse the process-the point is we don't want these people out in the world." "So this place is filled with, like, the worst guys ever, right?" "Hitler, Mussolini, Michael Vick." "No, no, these are men and women who would have become hitlers and Mussolini's or worse, except... we got to them first." "A room filled with evil that you've never heard of." "Seems so unfair." "No, this is a process that was first explored in..." "Mesopotamia." " In 1230 b - uh,50." "1250 B. C." "Anyway, the bronzing process was too heavy, and it kind of cracked open-let's just say it was unsuccessful." "Here, what we do is we flash-freeze the bodies cryogenically, and we preserve them by bronzing." "Unfortunately... it's a painless process." "Really?" "How many times have you tried it?" "It's about as painful as a sword in the chest." "Touché." "What a beautiful creature." "A farewell gift, Arthur?" "You shouldn't have." "Just ignore the monster in the cage." "Pete and Myka, the stolen artifacts have been loaded in." "Can I get your help replacing them?" "Fine by me." "I'd rather not see this." "Oh, wait, come on." "I want to watch this." "When's the next time something like this is gonna happen?" "Hopefully never." "Who says you can never go home again, eh, Arthur?" "James." "You know, I thought I'd have a lot more to say to you." "Good-bye, James." "Arthur... we can still be partners." "Pleading for your life?" "That's out of character for you." "I'm not pleading for my life." "I'm pleading for yours." "You know, maybe I should go check on Artie." "I'm sure he's fine." "You know what, I'll go check." "I'll be back in a second." "What a waste." "Gonna go downtown with my baby 'cause she looks so" "Turn around." "My dear, thank you for remembering our appointment." "Oh, that is a relief!" "Wave to Arthur so he can enjoy the tape later." "We're clear." "You won't be needing that anymore." "So was it all worth it?" "Unfettered access to warehouse 13?" "Time will tell." "There's work to be done." "The codes I implanted when Arthur tried to access my site need to be activated." "Go on." "Tempus fugit." "Late, as usual." "How did you-get away from there!" "Or what?" "You've had your chance, Arthur!" "So many chances!" "Go ahead, fire it!" "You see, there's a way around almost anything... partner!" "No!" "Artie." "Artie!" "Artie!" "Can you hear me?" "Artie!" "Get up!" "Artie." "Artie!" "Artie!" "Get up!" "Pete, hurry!" "Look out." "James, wait!" "sync. gioni666"

"The love train is entering the station." "Here's your conductor, George Lopez." "Hello." "Welcome to the season finale of take me out." "Is everybody feeling the love?" "I am." "Here is the weather forecast, straight from El nino." "Tonight-- steamy, hot, so get your umbrellas out, because it's gonna be raining women." "Bring on the girls." "The flirty 30." "It's overwhelming, isn't it?" "Who wants a date tonight?" "Huh?" "Julia." "I love that expression on your face." "Who wants a date?" "How has it been for you here?" "You've come close." "Come so close." "Who wouldn't want to take her out?" "Let's go!" "Who wouldn't want to take Julia out?" "All right." "Zaza." "Tonight is your night, zaza." "Tonight, you are walking up those stairs arm in arm with an eligible, single guy." "You know what, George, if you don't find me a guy tonight," "I'm gonna jump on that love lift with you and get a cookie from that cookie jar." "All right." "Now, ladonna, welcome to the show." "Yes." "Would you feel guilty if you got a date tonight after some of these ladies have been here all summer?" "No." "I'm a little late, but, just like them, I'm ready for my date." "Okay." "So bring out the bacon." "All right." "All right?" "Let's hear it for the girls." "You know what happens." "All the girls have a light in front of them." "A totally awesome, eligible hunky single guy is gonna come out." "If the girls like what they see, they keep their light on." "If they don't, they turn their light off." "So, girls, if you're not turned on..." "Turn off." "Here comes my first eligible bachelor of the evening." "Girls, listen to the music." "He chose it himself to impress you." "Let the shama lama see the ding dong." "Single man, reveal yourself." "Welcome to the show." "How you doing?" "I'm fantastic." "30 girls are waiting." "Give them your best shot." "Hello, ladies." "I am demarcus from New York City." "You rock!" "Girls, if you're turned off, turn off." "20 lights are still on!" "Let me go and find out what is happening with the ladies." "Katie Ann." "Yes." "I've been on all season long, and, at first, I was like, "damn, I see the light,"" "and then I saw your ponytail, I was like, "hell, no."" "That's probably why you're still on the show." "Oh!" "All right." "All right." "I mean, come on." "Okay." "Nina." "You say, "I like guys, George." ""Bring me a tall guy, well-dressed."" "He's got a little thing in the back." "It wasn't the one pony, but I was just confused by the ex-- like, the extra at the bottom." "I didn't-- can I see it?" "Turn around." "I think it looks fine." "There's like an extra piece." "Can you turn around, demarcus?" "Can I take a look at it?" "Hey." "Wait a minute." "It's like a soul patch on the back." "It's like a little..." "Suki, your light is on." "My light is on, George, but I'm a little scared." "Demarcus, do you know me?" "I'm from New York City, and you're from New York City, and..." "Suki, it's a big place, New York." "I'm saying I think I know you!" "I mean, I'm still in, but you don't know me?" "Like, we didn't?" "Demarcus, as your lawyer, have you ever had nookie with suki?" "I had no nookie with suki." "All right." "Demarcus, 20 ladies are feeling great about you." "But this is where we look beneath the surface." "Ladies, if he's not out of sight, turn out your light." "I've been searching for my true love for a very long time." "You know, I believe in passion and desire." "I'm, like, old school." "I believe in that one till death do you part." "I've known demarcus for a long time, and he never stops moving." "Let's go, let's go, let's go." "And I know his energy level has everything to do with him keeping his mind off of sex." "I'm 32, and I'm a very proud virgin." "But it doesn't mean I don't know how to use my sword." "When you're a virgin as long as I have been, you have to find creative ways to channel your sexual energy." "Man, he is, like, unstoppable." "He fences, he boxes, he's a chef." "I feel that true love is, I can give this to this woman" "I'm gonna fall in love with." "That's the challenge." "I didn't think it'd be this difficult." "I mean, everything, everywhere, is, like, sex, sex, sex, sex, sex, sex." "As much as I like cooking for my clients, I'd rather cook for that special girl." "Four lights are on." "You're still in the game." "Let me go and have an interesting chat with some of these ladies." "Jan?" "Yeah?" "What made you turn your light off?" "I am so sorry, and I think that what you are doing is amazing." "And I give you so much credit for having the type of fortitude, but I wouldn't buy a car without test-driving it." "So I..." "Zaza, you understand what's going on here, right?" "Yeah, for a second, I thought maybe I don't understand." "Maybe my English is a little low." "But you're 32." "What's going on?" "Like, talk to me." "I'm on still, but, come on, it's a dating show here." "Like, are we going" " I mean..." "I mean, love is the hard part." "Sex is easy." "Roxanne." "Tell everybody why your light is still on." "Um, I like it." "I also am a virgin, so I have that same vision, the one that I'll wait till marriage." "All right." "Megan, everyone here is out, and, Megan, you are in." "George, the force is strong with this one." "Okay." "First, there was the fencing." "I love fencing." "And I am a firm believer in the beauty of waiting till marriage, and I have been looking for a guy who believes in it too." "I like that." "Demarcus, four girls are thinking they might be your one and only." "And if there are any lights on after this next round, you will definitely have a date." "Ladies, if you're not turned on..." "Turn off." "I'm holding something very special, and I know it sounds a little crazy, but extremely awesome." "Why is it awesome?" "It's because this is my life." "I called it chastity box." "I've traveled many places around the world, and I've collected items for the woman I hopefully will marry." ""You're complete."" "I even bought this special ring when I was 19 years old." "I realize that's an extreme decision for a 19-year-old, but finding my wife, a huge priority for me." "When I saw the ring, I was like, why wait?" "Let's do it." "Demarcus, you got a date!" "Yeah!" "Zaza." "Yes?" "This could be the date." "Actually, yeah, I was just thinking about it." "If he really doesn't want sex, that's awesome, 'cause then we can be good friends." "This show is not called take me out and let's become friends." "Megan, why did you leave your light on?" "I thought that was so romantic, the box with the souvenirs." "I like traveling and collecting little trinkets." "It was cute." "I loved it." "All right." "Demarcus, you have three girls who want that ring in your chastity box." "But now you have to narrow it down to just two." "The power will be in your hands when we come back on take me out." "What's the one question you would ask these ladies?" "Use the #ifihadonequestion and let us know." "Welcome back to take me out." "Demarcus has three girls hoping to be the woman of his dreams." "Now he has to pick two." "The power is in your hands." "Go turn off one light and leave on two, demarcus." "Who's it gonna be?" "Turn one off!" "Who's it gonna be?" "Turn one off." "No!" "Oh!" "Roxanne!" "It is between Megan and zaza." "So now you get to ask them one question, demarcus." "Make it a good one." "All right, beauty is in the eye of the beholder." "What do you consider beautiful that most would consider ugly?" "Ah." "Megan, can we start with you, please?" "Like I said, I like to travel like you." "I think landscapes, even deserts, maybe it seems so barren and dead, but there are colors and life out there." "I just see it-- it's such a beautiful canvas, traveling and looking at nature." "Zaza?" "Let's go to you." "I consider your virginity is beautiful, actually." "And, uh..." "And I like it, so I would just pick on that." "So it is between Megan and zaza." "Go turn one off and take one out." "Demarcus!" "Who is it gonna be?" "Congratulations!" "Demarcus and Megan!" "Why did you pick Megan?" "Well, Megan, she has a lot of personality, and I liked her answer." "Well said." "Great." "All right, prepare yourself for the roller coaster ride of romance at the pleasure park where the theme is always "forever love"." "Where is it?" "Take me out resort!" "All right, you two." "Have a great time." "Just because I am a virgin, does not mean I don't know how to date." "I'm the master dater." "I'm gonna show Megan a good time." "I'm gonna show her, like, "hey, I love virgins." Heh heh heh." "The fact that he's a virgin did not throw me off." "In fact, it got my heart beating a little faster, because I've been looking for a guy with the same value system as I have." "Last week, two lonely hearts met on the show and went off to see if they could become a couple." "So, did they run into each other's arms or grab at each other's throats?" "Let's find out." "Zack, the shirtless wonder, chose Brooke to be his date at the take me out resort." "I'm really excited to see Zack again." "I just really want to get to know him, and who knows where this could lead?" "How are you?" "I'm doing excellent." "How are you doing?" "Nice to see you again." "Hi." "You look fantastic." "Thank you." "Awesome." "Are you ready?" "Yeah." "Let's go." "Okay." "So Brooke and I got in this awesome '49 Mercury, just had a chance to cruise around and enjoy the nice scenery." "All right, let's throw our hands up in the air." "Come on!" "It was really fun in the car, the top was down." "I've never been in an old car like that before." "Okay, princess." "Wah!" "We drove up to the vineyard, and it's absolutely gorgeous here." "I'm excited for the rest of the date." "I look forward to get to know him more." "So why did you pick me?" "You just came out very relaxed with your hat on." "You looked like, "here I am."" "The package was so funny." "It was like, "oh, I don't like to wear my shirt."" "I'm like, that's cool." "I don't like to wear clothes either." "Maybe you should take your shirt off, 'cause I know that you don't like to wear your shirt, and you might not be comfortable right now." "The whole date experience was just truly awesome." "I'd definitely like to see her again." "Such a beautiful day." "Yes." "Beautiful lady." "I think the date went fabulously." "Zack is a great person, and he's just a sweetheart, so I think he's definitely a person I'll keep in my life, yeah." "That is such a great place to go for a date." "Now we meet another rare gem in our tiara of beautiful ladies." "So please welcome Dina, a singer-songwriter from Knoxville, Tennessee." "Okay, ladies, I guarantee you this next guy is gonna make somebody's dream come true." "Listen carefully to the music, girls." "He chose it just for you." "Let the hot fudge see the sundae." "Single man, reveal yourself!" "Welcome to the show." "How you doing?" "I'm good." "You're up, my man." "All right, ladies, my name's Tyler." "I'm from orange county, California." "Ladies, if he's not Mr. right, turn out your light." "30 lights." "Whoo!" "Let me find out what's happening here." "Natasha." "George!" "Yes, you look like you have just had a revelation." "Who needs Moses?" "'Cause you just brought me the promised land." "Angela?" "This man comes out, you have the biggest smile I've ever seen on your face." "As I should." "But I just have one question for you." "What is that?" "What do you usually like for breakfast?" "Ooh." "Sydney, you like what you see, right?" "I do." "You know, I'm usually a pretty cool girl, but I'm all hot and flustered over here." "Unless this thing blows a circuit, I don't think it's going off anytime soon." "Hello, jennae." "Is he your dream guy?" "As a child, I had a crush on this cartoon character." "He reminds me of him." "Johnny bravo." "Love it." "I love it." "Joanna?" "You know, it's funny, you remind me a lot of a guy that I used to date." "And, yes, I'm totally bragging right now." "But he was like-- he was the most fun, like, I've ever had in my life." "And you totally have that spirit." "I just want to have fun with you." "Oh." "Okay." "Tyler, you couldn't be doing any better." "30 girls think you're what they've been looking for." "Wow." "Of course, they don't know anything about you yet." "They're gonna learn more." "Girls, if he's not out of sight, turn out your lights." "I work out a lot, and I give meaning to the term physical fitness." "My workout routine, it's not your typical workout routine." "I like to jump rope in front of my house, get some sun." "Also I really like to do numchuks and martial arts." "Ha-a!" "I work at my family business." "That's my dad's machine shop." "So it works out really cool." "But, when you see your mom almost every day at work and she's always asking you if you go on a date or, like, how it went, she gets on my butt literally." "I was kind of flattered because, you know, it says "mommy"... what?" "But part of me was very shocked that he would put that on his butt." "Bella is without a doubt the main woman in my life." "She's a complete sweetheart." "Who's a good girl?" "Any girl I date, she's pretty much gonna have to love Bella." "There's 30 beautiful girls, and hopefully they keep their lights on." "21 lights are on." "I'm gonna go and talk to the girls." "Okay, zaza, why did you turn your light off?" "It was a mommy thing, actually." "My mom lives here, not there, so..." "Yeah." "Let's check in with some girls that are in." "Aha." "Nicole." "In all seriousness, I wasn't really paying attention to that package." "But I will say I'm about to change my name to mommy, because I want to be on that a--butt." "That was good." "All right." "Tyler has 21 girls willing to overlook his mommy tattoo." "But is there anything else they need to worry about?" "Find out when we come back on take me out." "Welcome back to take me out." "21 girls are hot for Tyler." "If any of the girls still have their light on after this next round, he will definitely have a date." "Girls, if you're turned off..." "Turn off." "I live right by a college, so a lot of people that walk by" "I know and I can start talking to, so sometimes I work out outside." "It's kind of a social thing." "Oh, hey." "How's it going?" "I learned to juggle and yo-yo, and it's just kind of a weird skill that I picked up and just love." "21 girls!" "Tyler, you've got yourself a date!" "Let me talk to some of the girls who have their lights on." "Chelsea, your light is on." "Yes, oh, my gosh." "First off, congratulations on your face." "Like, it's gorgeous." "Your mom should be very proud." "Seeing that you know how to juggle and yo-yo," "I mean, teach me any tricks you know, please." "All right." "Natasha." "George." "Well, you know, that last little bit really got me." "I love a man who's good with his hands." "And I think I can help him with his juggling skills." "Oh-ho-ho." "Now I'm speechless." "Okay. 21 girls to pick from." "Oh, my gosh, that is a lot." "21 girls are trying to give Tyler the attention he needs so desperately." "Tyler, you have to narrow the girls down to just two." "The power is in your hands." "Go turn off the lights of the ladies who don't have the goods and leave just two lights on." "Tyler!" "Who's going out?" "No, no, she's perfect for you, she is." "Lauren is out!" "Chelsea's out." "Roxanne is out." "Go see what's over there before you come over here." "Christie's out." "15 more light-- oh!" "Jan is out." "Kahleel is out." "13 lights, Tyler." "Sheena's out." "Now he's going over to the other side." "Who is it gonna be?" "Oh!" "Kelli's out!" "Don't you do it." "Don't you do it!" "No, no, no!" "Nicole is gone!" "Jennae is out." "Natasha's out!" "I'm sorry." "He's breaking hearts!" "Oh, you were so sweet." "Angela's out!" "Nicole m is out." "Suki's out." "Get out of here." "Five more, Tyler." "Oh!" "Kassi's out." "Keep walking, keep walking, keep walking." "Ire's out." "Three more lights." "Dina's out." "Two more lights." "Who's it gonna be?" "Oh!" "Kym and Anna." "Wow, you left joanna, and you left Sydney." "Apparently I like tall girls." "You do." "I guess so." "Yeah!" "Now you have to pick just one tall girl." "The girls know a lot about you, but you know almost nothing about them." "I know." "Now you can ask them one question, Tyler." "Make it a good one." "If you guys haven't noticed, I am on the show, I'm a bit of an attention whore." "What would you guys do to keep my attention?" "Okay." "Let's start with joanna." "Um, I'm just gonna say this." "I'm a great catch." "We'll keep it at that." "I like that." "Sydney!" "You know, you seem like a busy guy, but I think I'd keep your attention with a little shoulder rub, so you can keep on doing what you're doing, but, you know, know I'm there." "So it is between Sydney and joanna." "Go turn one off and take one out, Tyler." "Who's it gonna be?" "Sydney or joanna?" "I'm so sorry." "What is wrong with you?" "Congratulations, Tyler and joanna." "Hi." "I got a date." "You got a date." "How about that?" "What made you pick joanna?" "Hon-- it was the eyes." "I don't know." "Well, you're off on a date to a place where waves of love kiss the shore and couples walk on a beach covered with rose petals." "Where is it, everyone?" "The take me out resort!" "Well, you kids have a good time." "Congratulations." "My first impression of joanna, she was super cute, really tall, gorgeous." "Simple as that." "You know, I really like my date." "I think that we have some stuff in common." "He's really goofy." "I'm kind of goofy." "He's got mommy tattooed on his butt." "Last week..." "I put together a couple" "I still have difficulty picturing together-- will and mindy." "Who would have thought?" "So what happened when they arrived in paradise?" "Let's find out." "Opera singer will had his pick between mindy and zaza, but ultimately chose mindy to accompany him to the take me out resort." "I'm totally looking forward to my date with mindy." "She seemed like a sweetheart, and I'm excited to get to know her." "I'm looking forward to seeing will again." "I think he has a massive sense of humor, so I think this is gonna be fun." "Well, again we meet." "You look like a little mermaid on the rocks." "How are you?" "Pretty good." "You wore my favorite color." "What do you think we're doing?" "'Cause I don't know." "I have no idea." "Drinking?" "You guys are gonna learn how to dance salsa." "What?" "Yes." "Cool." "One, two, back with the right." "One, two, three." "Five, six, seven, and turn her." "Great." "Let's break it down." "All right." "Dancing is the thing that I'm worst at in the world, but we definitely had the similar goofiness." "It was fun." "I can't dance, but I had a good time with will, and I can say that the first part of the date went pretty well." "Get down on my level." "Boomps, boomps, boomps." "So, to a wonderful date." "So why did you pick me?" "'Cause the whole crowd was screaming for you not to." "I know." "But, to be honest, I picked you because you had, like, a goofiness to you." "You were--no-- me?" "Yeah, right?" "It was this perfect blend of, like, confidence and shyness at the same time." "It was great." "How can you be on to me so quickly?" "Will creeped me out a little bit by kind of nailing me on the head." "I can totally tell he's being himself too." "So I think this is, like, one of the best dates ever." "I would love to hang out with him again." "I really do wish he lived closer." "I'm glad you chose me." "I think you're gonna have way more fun with me than anyone." "I would definitely date mindy." "She's a great girl, and I had a great time." "And, you know, it turns out I made a great choice." "To good decisions." "Good decisions and kind of hot nerds." "Definitely hot nerds." "Who would have thought it would have gone as well as that?" "Good luck to both of them." "After the break, more dates and more men when we come back on take me out." "Welcome back to take me out." "Last week, I sent another brand-new couple off to the take me out resort." "They had big dreams for romance." "So did their hearts fly high, or did they make an emergency landing?" "Let's find out." "Piano man Scott inspired crystal to keep her light on and paired up for a date in paradise." "Crystal just really caught my eye from the beginning, so I am very excited to get to spend some time with her." "I feel nervous." "On stage, he was great, so I'm hoping that it's the same guy I go on a date with today." "How are you?" "Good." "How are u?" "Good." "It's good to see you." "You too." "You look very nice." "That's a good color on you." "Thank you." "You ready for our date?" "Yes." "Okay." "Let's go inside." "Candy land." "I'm home." "My mouth is watering now." "When I walked in, all I saw was we were gonna make chocolate-dipped strawberries." "I was really happy." "A little shake there." "A little shake." "Oh, okay." "All right, let's see how we did." "Cheers." "We have a great chemistry, and I think the energy that crystal gave me throughout the date was great." "You know, we both were having fun with it." "It was very natural." "All right." "All right." "Let's go." "I like that you're really close with your family, 'cause I'm like that too." "I do have a five-year-old daughter." "Oh." "She's my world." "I love kids." "I have a four-year-old niece, and I have an almost two-year-old niece, and I love them." "They're a huge part of my life." "When I told Scott about my daughter, he really put me at ease, and it made me feel good." "A guy should make a girl feel good like that." "So can I see you again sometime?" "Yeah, if we can make it happen." "I'll definitely make it happen." "Okay, well, then let's do that." "Sounds good." "The master matchmaker strikes again." "Okay, ladies, I hear the love lift coming." "Another single stud is on his way." "Check out his music, girls." "He chose it just for you." "Let the lady see the gaga." "Single man, reveal yourself." "Welcome to the show." "Thank you." "They're all yours." "What's up, ladies?" "My name is George wang." "I'm from San Gabriel, California." "Ni hao." "Girls, if you're not turned on..." "Turn off!" "Oh." "George, 23 lights." "Hey, that's better than nothing." "You're doing all right." "Let me go and get the lowdown on the lights." "Kahleel." "Yes?" "Handsome young man." "He is a handsome young man." "But I'm also a tall girl, and I don't need an armrest." "Like, what are we gonna do?" "Yo!" "I'm sorry." "You don't like Chinese food?" "Yes!" "Nicole, I like that your light is on." "Because we know each other a little bit." "I think this is a little bit out of your comfort zone." "Not at all." "Oh!" "I want to say that I'm in love, but that would be too soon." "Too soon." "Too soon." "Finally, you bring out someone witty." "Yes." "Witty!" "You've got a great sense of humor." "I tell you, he is my type to a "t"." "All right, George." "You're doing great." "23 girls are feeling good about George wang." "But now let's check under the hood and see what his engine is made of." "Ladies, if you're not feeling right, turn out that light." "I think I'm a catch." "I'm like a koi fish." "The oriental mystique." "I'm a rep for a tattoo supply company." "Hey, what's up, man?" "I got your package." "You kind of picture a pharmaceutical rep." "Only I'm not selling medicine." "I'm selling tattoo equipment." "When I'm not pitching tattoo supplies," "I'm out hitting the handrails or falling on my ass." "Skateboarding is something you do to better yourself." "It's super creative." "You know what I mean?" "Like, everyone's like, "dude, that's a handrail."" "I'm like, "no, you don't understand." "That's, like, the handrail."" "My dream is to be a full-time standup comedian." "Maybe one day I can have my own hbo special like George Lopez." "People look at me and they automatically assume" "I'm into a freaky girl because of my industry, but really I just want someone who will laugh at my stupid jokes." "Oh, I will laugh at jokes." "George, ten girls are still in." "I don't know what these girls are thinking." "Let's go see what's happening." "Kym, what put you off?" "I tapped out-- the skateboards get me." "I just--I can't do it." "I'm sorry." "It's all right." "It's okay." "Let's talk to some of the ladies that are in." "Nicole w said that George wang is perfect." "W could be Nicole wang." "I will laugh at your stupid jokes if you laugh at mine, because I have a crap load of 'em." "If this podium weren't screwed down, I would be all up on this." "I'm losing my mind right now, I'm serious." "She's all in." "Let me talk to Vanessa." "You know, I'm not supposed to have favorites, but I like the way this looks." "Yeah." "Um, I mean, I obviously hate tattoos, so..." "I'm digging it." "I mean, the tattoo thing, the skateboarding thing, the sense of humor." "I mean, what is there not to like?" "Okay." "All right." "George!" "You're doing all right." "So ten ladies are hot to trot for George." "Next, George is hoping to blow the ladies away with his incredible talent." "George, go and get yourself ready." "The night is hot, and so is this show on Twitter." "Get involved with #takemeout." "Will George have the skills to get himself a date?" "Find out when we come back on take me out." "Welcome back to take me out." "Give it up, everybody, for George." "I am in love right now." "George has ten girls in." "If there's any lights on after this next round, he will definitely have a date." "Give it up for the man I like to call grandmaster g." "George!" "Four lights are on." "George, you got yourself a date." "All right, George, hang on, brother." "Let me go see what's happening over here." "Anna." "A little freestyle." "Your light is on." "George wang dropping a little knowledge." "That was pretty hot." "I like a man with some rhythm." "He's got some rhythm." "All right." "This is an interesting combination here." "Nicole." "Nicole." "I love this kid." "I seriously... this is ridiculous." "I mean, I'm not huge into tattoos, and I'm very afraid of needles, but I don't care right now." "Like, I seriously don't even care about any of that." "Everything." "Just so unique in every different way." "It's exactly like me." "Okay." "Jennae, why did you leave your light on?" "Okay, I asked for spontaneity, and, boy, did you bring it." "Right?" "The last thing I expect this little Asian kid to do was come out here and freestyle, and you-- you held your own." "I got to give it to you." "There's no way I could turn my light off... all right." "Wow." "Four ladies love the rapping and the rhyming, but now I need you to narrow it down to just two." "The power, George, is in your hands." "Take your shades off." "I need you to make this" " I want you to see everything that's happening." "Okay, all right, go turn off some lights and leave two lights on, George." "Go turn off some lights." "Oh, man." "Here goes our George." "Oh, man, I don't know what to do." "Who's it gonna be?" "Lose two." "Two lights go off." "No." "I'm sorry." "For real?" "Oh, jennae!" "George!" "Is it Anna?" "I'm sorry." "No!" "Okay, Anna is out." "All right, George, you have left ladonna and Nicole w." "George, the girls know a lot about you, but what do you know about them?" "You can ask them one question, George." "Make it a good one." "Okay, if you were a fortune cookie..." "What would your fortune be to the rest of this audience?" "Ladonna, let's start with you." "I would say to the audience, don't settle for less when you deserve the best." "Nicole w." "It would be blank, because I would let you write it in." "Wow." "I don't know what to do." "All right, it's between ladonna and Nicole w." "Go turn one off and take one out..." "When we come back on take me out." "Okay." "Welcome back, everybody, to take me out." "Rapper George started out with 30 girls." "We are down to his top two" " Nicole and ladonna." "Now he has to pick his favorite." "George, go turn one off, and take one out!" "George!" "Who's it gonna be, George?" "Give it up, everybody, for George and Nicole." "George, why did you finally settle on Nicole?" "She's awesome." "Look at her." "She's cool." "Well, you two are going off to the most exclusive, romantic hideaway in the world." "In fact, George clooney can't even get a reservation there." "Where is it?" "The take me out resort!" "All right, you two." "Have fun." "He's witty, he's funny, he" "I did not expect the rap thing." "That won me over completely." "Nicole is a strike like bowling a frame." "She won the game, now she gets to hang with some wang." "Did we have fun?" "I made some great new couples." "Demarcus and Megan..." "Tyler and joanna..." "And George and Nicole." "Before we go, let's take a quick look at how the dates from tonight's episode turned out." "I'm here for a date." "First, there was demarcus and Megan, who played games in the sun." "Oh!" "Yes!" "You have, like, 30 girls up there." "You even had a lot to choose from in the end." "Why'd you pick me?" "I really was curious why he picked me." "He had choices." "It wasn't like I was the only one left." "When you spoke, it was like, "oh, wow," you know," ""something's real cool about her."" "I really like Megan a lot." "She's really cool to be around." "And yes, I would see Megan again." "Oh, thank you." "Guess who." "What up?" "Hey, how are you?" "Next up, rapper George took Nicole out to a comedy club." "How we doing tonight, everybody?" "And then a romantic dinner." "Why'd you keep your light on?" "Like, if I were you, I would've been like, "next."" "I can read people." "But you came out, you owned everything." "Every comment you were giving back to the girls was witty." "I know I'll see her again." "You know, I have a skateboard, I have a bus pass..." "You're just as immature as me." "I'll swim." "Cheers, my love." "I'm certain that we're going to go on a date together again." "Like, tomorrow." "Finally, sparks flew when Tyler and joanna went to a baseball game together." "Hi." "Hi." "I just turn around, and there's, like, this 7-foot mascot looking right at me." "I think he's gonna try and take a picture with the both of us, and he just totally backs out and pushes us together." "So, I guess that's technically our first kiss." "Talk about a wingman." "Soon as the game ended, we got to go all the way down to the field." "And we're just standing out there, and all the lights turn off." "Oh!" "That one's gonna pop." "Boom!" "Ooh." "It was such a great date today." "I had a really great time, and he is a really great guy." "I would really like to see him again." "You'll find all the dates, and a whole lot more." "We'll be back soon with more beautiful women, more fabulous single guys, more intimate encounters." "Until then, be lucky in love, everybody!"

"Anyway, Mike, why we're here is we need a briefcase 'cause I'm gonna empty out my bank account and I need somewhere to put all the money when we start the business." "Phil, can I see you in the other room for a second?" "Sure." "Whatever you want, weirdo." " Hey, Phil?" " Yeah?" "Ask him about the briefcase." "Okay, where is it?" "Jesus, you have so many pairs of socks." " Phil!" " What?" "Your dad suddenly appears out of the blue and convinces you to hand over your life savings?" "Okay?" "Have you forgotten this asshole abandoned you and your mom?" "Mike, I was a very needy child." "Water, food, love, attention." "I mean, I get it." "Anyway, he's forgiven me and I've forgiven him, and now we're business partners and also a dad and a son who love each other." "Okay, what is this business anyway?" "Well, it's, uh, pretty complicated, but try to follow along here." " Check it out." " Okay." "So there's a cage fight coming up, right?" " Where my daddy, Mr. Matarese to you," " Got it." "Yeah." "Knows for a fact that this dude is taking a dive." "So, we're gonna bet on this guy to win." "(squeals) I'm so excited." "I could just squeal!" "It's like the beginning a Facebook or something."

"He's different now and he loves me, and I'm sorry you can't see that because this house is filled with hatred and resentment." " Okay." " I'm getting the fuck outta here."

"He wants a girlfriend." "And his dad's not around, and he just doesn't have that positive male role model to kind of tell him, like," ""This is how you do it." "This is what you do." ""This is"--you know, he's got me." "He's got Mom." "[Indistinct voice on TV]" "Dave:" "I met Lindsey at a national autism conference from the Autism Society of America in Nashville, Tennessee, in July of 2005." "We started calling it a relationship in the fall of that year, maybe 3 or 4 months later when we met up at another conference, and I asked her, "How would you feel about being in a relationship with me?"" "She said, "Well, I'm confused, but I could see if this maybe-- this may work."" "She was confused at first, but she could see this working." ""We'll give it a try."" "[Door opens]" "Hi!" "Hi!" "How are you?" "I'm good." "Welcome home." "Thank you." "Lindsey, voice-over:" "I think that autism definitely presents unique challenges to our relationship." "Our particular routines and rigidities and our--our particular comfort zones and... we're so fixated on--on that that it's sometimes difficult to communicate to each other." "Love your necklace." "Oh!" "Thanks." "Do you know-- did I ever tell you, um, one bene-- one reason I love jewelry so much is because it gives me a, um--a sort of a sh--a shield to sort of protect myself from sort of" "vulnerable elements?" "That's--that's news to me, actually." "I didn't know that." "Oh, really?" "Vulnerable elements." "Yeah." "I kind of discovered that after wearing necklaces for the past several--you know, the past--especially the last 10 years." "I've really been into wearing heavy jewelry, and I discovered a reason why it was-- that it kind of makes me--because I feel so vulnerable and feel so, um, shy and..." "Mm-hmm." "you know, introverted that wearing the jewelry kind of makes me feel that sort of false sense of confidence, and it kind of makes me feel less vulnerable." "It makes me feel like it's sort of a shield, sort of protect myself from feeling, um, more--more vulnerable." "Well, it looks like the weather just came on." "I was gonna, like, catch a glimpse here and see what he says about the" "Oh, of course." "I can't ever interrupt you from the weather." "Well, you can always s-- be near me, but I may not talk to you as much." "Yeah, but" "[Increases TV volume]" "Man on TV: 47." "Not gonna fall that fast tonight." "Winds are still gonna be a factor." "Northwest at 16." "I'm gonna go." "I'll be right back." "OK." "Man on TV:" "And it should all be finished tomorrow night, which is a good thing." "Satellite picture..." "Man on TV:" "and lots of sunshine and 64 on Monday." "Chance of showers and rain Monday night into Tuesday..." "[Music box playing]" "Should we go rock in your rocking chair?" "Shall we?" "Man, voice-over:" "We tried to treat her as normally as we possibly could, all the time making allowances in our own mind for the fact that she might not be able to do everything quite as fast or quite as well or something like that" "but just trying to raise her as normally as we possibly could." "Here we go." "Ah!" "Here we go." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Come on." "Lindsey?" "Gordon, voice-over:" "We all, evidently, come equipped with a social antenna that we don't even realize we have." "We know instinctively when we are getting too close to someone physically, when we seem to be pushing them a little further than they want to be pushed, when maybe we should back off and not be quite so bossy or controlling." "Lindsey didn't have the antenna." "Gordon:" "Lindsey, can you wave?" "Say--Lindsey." "Here's the water." "Lindsey." "Woman:" "She just asked me to put the hat back on her." "Different woman:" "Cute." "Gordon:" "Lindsey." "[Toddler crying]" "Gordon:" "Can you wave?" "Can you wave?" "Child:" "Yeah." "Gordon:" "Yeah." "Gordon, voice-over:" "It's sort of mystifying, but the absence of that antenna, very hard." "That was very challenging for her." "She wanted to fit in." "Man:" "Oh." "Has anybody seen Lindsey?"

"I'm proud of you." "Thank you." "Woman on TV:" "Monday at 6:30..." "Matt:" "What are you having for dinner tonight?" "Uh, sole--fish with mashed potatoes." "Have you got mashed potatoes?" "Woman:" "Not yet." "Matt:" "Are you cooking?" "My mother is cooking." "Matt:" "Oh, OK." "Do you ever cook?" "I cook hot dogs every Sunday." "I cook hot dogs every Sunday." "Matt:" "When he was young, did you think that he would be capable of a romantic relationship?" "[Sigh]" "No." "I didn't dare hope." "I didn't dare hope." "Man, voice-over:" "Although, uh, his expression was not there, but he had knowledge." "[Stephen reading prayer in Hebrew]" "Mother:" "But of course, he still does not elaborate and doesn't express himself too--too well about his real feelings." "His language is still not up to the way it should be." "He talks, and he communicates, and..." "But in a certain way." "In a certain way." "Matt:" "So tell me more about your job, Stephen." "Well, I was doing assembly work, and I was working in stamps, and I worked on trays." "What's trays?" "Trays just means to fold for the U-- for the United States Postal Service." "Oh, OK." "And so when you do stamps, what--tell me what you have to do for stamps." "To put them in envelopes." "How many do you do a day, would you say?" "Uh, 500." "Wow." "That's a big workload." "Yes." "Wow." "And how many hours a day do you work?" "8 hours, from 7:00 until 3:00." "OK." "How do you get to work?" "By bus." "Do you take one bus or more than one?" "Just the bus." "Just one bus." "Just one bus." "Yes." "Oh." "Do you like the bus?" "Yes." "Edith, voice-over:" "Our aim was he should become independent." "He should be able to hold down a job." "That, thank God, we accomplished without him being institutionalized." "Lenny:" "He's a bad man, this guy." "Kathy:" "What's up, dude?" "Lenny:" "What's up, Mom?" "Let me finish up the game first." "Come on." "So we talked about a dating website a little bit." "Yeah." "I think I might want to do that." "What would you put if you were, like, putting, like" "I don't know." "It's hard to say." "I like to keep it private to me and you only." "I'm gonna be serious." "I'm not gonna be no joking around." "OK, if you were gonna put on a dating website, like, your interests" "Sports." "OK." "What else?" "You wouldn't put-- how come you wouldn't put any of, like, the Comic-Con stuff?" "Do you think that's silly?" "Nope." "I won't do it." "How come?" "Because I don't want to." "OK." "That's you." "That's" "But why don't you-- you don't want to find somebody that likes that kind of stuff, too?" "Nope." "So, what other interests would you put?" "I don't know." "I'll be taken more serious." "So you want, like, a serious girl?" "Yeah, a little bit." "OK." "A businesswoman?" "No, not completely, but I pay for the dates." "Me." "That's the way it goes." "OK." "That's the way the show goes." "I'm not gonna let her pay for everything and me, you know, I got to be the one that... is the more independent one than her." "But I don't think that that's fair." "No, it is fair." "Kind of chauvinistic." "No, it's not." "I think a little bit." "I mean, what if there's a woman out there that is perfect for you but she makes more money than you do?" "Nope." "I won't take her." "I'm serious." "I won't take her." "Kathy:" "He does not want to be different." "He just wants to be like everybody else, so then he goes above and, like, kind of goes beyond trying to fit in, and everybody" "I can see they're like, "Why is he acting like this?"" "Like, we all know Lenny's special, so he just needs to be who he is, and he's not." "He tries to be something different." "Lenny:" "I need to be the one making more money." "I hear so many things about" "I hear so many YouTube videos about women." "By men." "OK" "No." "It's a woman saying," ""Don't be with broke-ass men."" "Wow." "These are the kind of women" "No, they're trying to inform the women not to be with broke men, and I don't want to be" "I don't want to be a broke male with a woman." "I don't want her paying for everything." "I need to be the one" "You don't have to be paying for everything-- or she doesn't have to be paying for everything." "You could be paying for stuff, but when you get into a relationship with somebody, you're supposed to be their partner." "Partner." "Well, I need to be the one doing more." "That's the way it goes." "I don't think that's the way it goes." "I think that you're being misinformed by people that are just not really great people." "I think you're being misinformed." "I'm not." "I think you are." "What if you find somebody-- and I'm just saying if you love somebody, it shouldn't matter." "It should be, like, you just love her, and maybe one day you'll be making more money, and you guys just support each other in that good kind of like foundation and" "It's just hard." "It's just hard to believe that." "Why?" "It's just about being the more independent one." "But you will be independent." "You're going to be independent." "That is gonna happen, Lenny." "Sometimes it takes a minute for people." "It's hard." "That transition from fricking--into manhood?" "That thing, that's hard." "I know." "I couldn't even-- it was hard" "I'm good, though, Mom." "I'm trying to be good." "Well, trying to be good how?" "I want you to feel good." "I'm just going through a little bit of a struggle." "I'm down on myself too many times, and it's too tough because I feel like" "I should be accept-- doing more in life." "Do you think-- do you consider yourself like less sometimes?" "That's kind of what I get." "Sometimes." "Why?" "I feel different." "I feel better than being autistic sometimes." "Let's get past this." "Let's get over this and get on with it because you're fricking awesome." "I know." "I know." "I don't think you do." "I know." "I think you don't and you need to know." "OK." "I love you." "Kathy:" "He's really down on himself." "I think once he starts working, he's gonna feel better about himself." "He's gonna feel more productive, like he's out there doing something." "Because right now he doesn't feel like he's doing anything." "Man on TV:" "Some points in Massachusetts and Rhode Island could see up to a foot of snow, and in New Jersey, well, the storm is certainly..." "Lindsey, voice-over:" "I always knew I was different, even before I was informed of my diagnosis of autism, though I always felt like I was an odd character outside of my--my peers." "But I didn't really understand why." "I would often get turned away, or people would ignore me, and I--I thought," ""Well, what am I doing wrong?"" "And even after learning about my own diagnosis," "I still, for several years, struggled to figure out why I couldn't, um, maintain and keep friends, why I couldn't fit in, why I couldn't be accepted." "Unfortunately, I think the first impressions I received, um, when I was learning about autism were quite negative, and as a result," "I felt incredibly ashamed of being autistic." "Every morning when I get ready, I look in the mirror before I step outside the house, and I think to myself," ""Well, I look OK." "I look OK today."" "And the moment I step outside the front door," "I immediately become self-conscious." "I've recognized pretty quickly that the way I perceive myself in the outside world is drastically different than the way I perceive myself in my own world." "In some aspects and at some times," "I do feel like I have found that personal happiness within myself, or that personal peace." "But it's still very difficult for me to find acceptance of myself." "I have just learned how to be a good actress." "Woman:" "I remember when you first started at work, and, um, I wasn't sure-- I wasn't necessarily sure what to expect because, you know, everybody on the spectrum is different, and..." "Oh, yeah." "Yeah, absolutely." "you never know if somebody is going to be very outgoing or--you know, kind of the classic description of someone on the spectrum is not--you know, unfortunately, not interested, empathetic, you know, not into" "I always had this fear people would be staring at me, that... people can see right through me." "I think it kind of relates to my frustration I've had over the years of... being pressured to fit into the social norm... that I'm not good enough if I don't fit in." "Have you ever dated somebody who was on the spectrum before?" "Actually, all--all the guys I've dated prior to Dave were-- yeah, were not on the spectrum." "So Dave is the first." "And how is it different?" "Dave:" "For me, it boils down to 3 things." "I have a formula here." "It's L plus P plus two T." "So each part is 25%." "So you have 25% of the P and L, and you have 50% of the T, which results to what that person's grade would be in terms of relationship and dating potential." "Now, you're wondering," "L is how they look physically-- physical appearance and attributes." "The second--the P is personality." "What is their lifestyle like?" "And most importantly is T is how they treat you." "Treatment towards you." "If--let's say, for example, that the person is relatively ugly." "Then they get, like, a 50% category in the L category." "But they have, you know, like a perfect personality and nearly perfect way they treat you, they're gonna score pretty well in the overall scheme of things." "So the T has greater weight." "It's twice as much weight in the formula than the personality and looks is how they treat you." "[Playing piano]" "Lindsey:" "You know, it's funny with Dave." "He--he's much more scientific, and I'm much more artistic." "I think Dave is trying his best to understand me." "I think he always has tried his best to understand me." "I think it's still difficult for him to-- to really have that grip, though, of understanding, of why I have my particular issues." "[Playing piano]" "You know, it's a very good question whether someone can love you without truly understanding you." "I still think it's absolutely possible." "Yeah." "You know, obviously we have, from time to time, talked about marriage and, um, if we were to get married someday and kind of some of the fears we have with that." "Um, uncertainties." "Yeah, and idea of whether Lindsey would take my name or keep her own name." "And talk about, like, prenuptial agreements and how they would be written out and, uh, financial matters, how they'd be, um, managed." "Um, things like that." "Yeah." "And where the wedding would take place." "Yeah, well, I think that's not really fears." "I think that's just more of, you know, listing the pros and cons and kind of-- it's the whole idea of whether marriage is going to dictate that our identities are lost." "That's kind of my main fear." "I'd still support keeping our own identities." "I mean, marriage is just a--kind of like a social title we would have, but we'd still have our own identities." "Yeah." "Of course." "I would insist upon it." "I mean, Dave has--has been through a lot with me, and he's still around, and that to me is definitely evidence of--of love." "Dave:" "I love it when she shows me physical, um, appreciation, when she holds me, hugs me, kisses me, smiles at me." "I always love it when she comes to tuck me into bed at night." "But I feel like she puts me very high up on her daily list." "I feel like I'm very much important to her and that I'm a big part of her life." "But the T score also ties in very much to how important that person makes you feel." "If you don't--if you get the impression that person doesn't think you're important, that hurts your T score." "When I was first dating her and first meeting her," "I never had stronger feelings for anybody else ever before." "The fact that they lasted for 8 years I think is a good signal that things were on a very solid course here." "Man on TV: ...the winter we get in Memphis in the Midwest region."

"[Laughter]" "And after a few days, Gita said, "Let's set a date."" "[Laughter]" "Well, the date is here, and this is the couple, and we hope that this marriage is from God." "It's going to be a lasting marriage and a happy marriage." "Stephen, voice-over:" "I met Gita 20 years ago." "It was on February 7, 1993." "Matt:" "What day of the week was that?" "It was on a Sunday." "What did you say to her when you first met her?" ""Hello."" "And what did you think when you first met her?" "It's nice." "It was beautiful." "Are you in love with Gita?" "Yes, I'm in love with Gita." "What does that mean?" "I don't know." "It means to fall in love, to give a kiss and a hug." "How do you know when you're in love?" "I don't know." "Max:" "Somebody suggested they knew of Gita." "They said, "Maybe these two together" ""these two will get together." "Maybe they'll make-- they'll make a couple."" "Edith:" "They were kind of complementing each other." "Gita is very verbal." "That's what Stephen is lacking." "Stephen has other qualities that she was lacking, so they really complemented each other." "Max:" "They lived happily for almost 17 years, and then unfortunately," "Gita got ovarian cancer, and she's fighting with it for the last 3 years." "Remember 3 years ago, Gita had chemo?" "3 years ago." "Matt:" "What is chemo?" "I don't know." "It's a disease." "Is that bad?" "It's bad." "So, what happened after chemo?" "I don't know." "She went to the doctor." "She went to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester." "What happened there?" "Uh, she had to go-- yeah, she had tests for her cancer." "She had tests." "And what did the tests say?" "Uh, her condition is, uh, I don't know." "Edith, voice-over:" "Stephen is very hopeful about her sickness." "He says, "Gita's not gonna die." "She'll be all right."" "[Indistinct voice on TV]" "Hi, Marlena." "I feel a little better." "I'm getting better." "Hello." "Hi, honey." "Hello." "Gita, voice-over:" "The thing with Stephen is that he is..." "I find that he understands me in his own way." "I have a learn--a mild learning disability, and, um--ahem-- so but still and all," "I feel in a way that I can understand him because he can--because we both have something we cannot do and things we can do, but being that we have disabilities, we can... we can relate all the more." "Tell me what else is new." "Nothing." "Nothing?" "Well, I--I relaxed all day..." "That's good." "trying to feel better." "Uh-huh." "That's nice." "Yeah." "I don't know if this is the right thing to say, but I feel bad that he's not able to express himself, and I'm--and I try to encourage him, to make him feel as if he can," "and you know something?" "He has improved a lot." "How was your day?" "It was excellent." "What did you do?" "Well, I worked" "I worked on towels today at MBI." "Towels?" "What do they look like?" "Well, they look like, uh-- they look like wash towels." "They look like dish towels." "Oh, nice." "What colors were they?" "They were purple." "Oh, nice." "What's your favorite color?" "Blue." "Blue." "And my favorite color is red." "Well, that's nice." "You have a nice hat, huh?" "Yeah." "Just look at me." "Yes." "Relax." "It's always difficult." "It's always difficult, but I got used to it." "I got used to it." "It's extremely difficult, but I think if I were married to someone who it-- wasn't disabled or who isn't disabled, I'd have more of a problem because that person might be--be--ahem--demanding and want more out of me." "So tell me more." "Well, I'm going to eat dinner at my parents'." "Oh, that's good." "Well, I hope you'll feel better, and I'll see you later." "See you later, honey." "Thanks for dropping by and wishing me well." "You're welcome." "Matt:" "How do you know that Stephen is in love with you?" "Gita:" "Um... it's in the way he looks at me." "I can tell." "He gives me such loving eyes." "Dave:" "Love is a very abstract concept that many people with autism have a hard time grasping, and it's one of those things that's not concrete." "As a scientist, I wish I could put it into perspective as a type of subatomic particle, but it's not." "Love is basically more like a force." "Like, in physics, you have forces-- forces of attraction-- and I have a feeling that love is--the best way to describe that is a force of attraction between two people that is neither visible, measurable, or heard." "There's no way to quantify it." "Lenny:" "I'm feeling a little down about myself right now." "Matt:" "Why is that?" "I've just been down lately." "I've been a little... sometimes you go through hard times in your life." "I feel like I can't get a girl." "I don't--there are no girls at my school." "Everywhere I go, it's something about guys." "I go home, I see my stepfather, and the only women I see are my good friends or my--my--my sister, like, girls are sort of like my sisters or my home girls, and that's so annoying." "You don't see women anywhere." "It's like--I feel like if someone came up to me and said, "Would you--would you want to go to a women's prison for a week?" I would probably say yes." ""Would you--would you go to a women's jail for a week and be the only man there?"" "I'd probably say yes." "Lenny, voice-over:" "I feel like, you know, if I had a girl, maybe--maybe I'll be happy right now." "Maybe I'll be-- feel good about myself." "You know what, Matt?" "I'm gonna admit something to you." "Do you want me to tell you something?" "I like girls that are black." "I like them a lot." "What do you think about that?" "Do you know what interracial-- interracial relationships are?" "Inter--interracial relationships?" "It means when different race people go out with each other." "I was reading something on the computer that... black women are really independent, and it said that they're lucky girl-- that they're really intelligent women, and I feel like that, you know, I want a girl like that," "but I feel like I can't." "Matt:" "Why do you think you can't?" "Because, you know, they're too independent." "I need to be more independent." "I need to get a good job and make good money." "Dave, voice-over:" "You get married for love, too, but for me, there's more of a practical component as well." "Probably 60% practical and 40% emotional." "I'll always love her." "That won't change." "But for the specific reasons for the marriage, that's what it'd boil down to." "Lindsey, voice-over:" "I had told him a few years ago that whenever he was ready to take that next step, that I would be willing to--to accept." "I've--I've yet to hear any kind of indicator that that next step may be taken." "Um, I know that we kind of brushed over this, like, when we chatted about it." "I do believe you and trust you when--when you've told me that you were in it for the long haul." "Oh, yeah." "And I do believe you, and I do--you know," "I do trust you, and I--I, um, you know," "I definitely am in it for the long haul for us, too, and I-- I wouldn't--you know," "I wouldn't be here if I wasn't." "Well, I know that." "Yeah." "I guess I'm just-- I was just still kind of just figuring out, like" "That was a conversation that made me a little bit uncomfortable, too." "Oh, you mean at the time?" "Yeah, yeah." "Yeah." "Well, it's uncomfortable for me, too, but... it's important." "It's important." "Sometimes I think there's conversations that are uncomfortable for us, but they're really important to have or at least to address them in order to us to understand where each other are coming from." "So I--I'm not gonna lie." "So..." "But having this on camera, I don't like at all." "I don't like the idea of having this conversation on camera at all." "OK." "It's one of those things that's best left off camera, I think." "OK." "We can stop talking about it." "Yes." "All right." "Thank you for-- thank you for letting me know." "I think--yeah, I just feel better that way." "OK." "I just feel uncomfortable being on camera talking about it." "All right." "No, thank you for letting me know." "But you know how I feel, so don't worry about it." "Lindsey, voice-over:" "There's been times that I have questioned whether he really wants to be with me." "Gordon:" "Within yourself, you think you can communicate." "You think you've said something." "You think it should be obvious to somebody that's this, this, and this, but again you go back to the antenna." "Maybe you are, but maybe they haven't picked that up." "Stephen, voice-over:" "Yes, this is my apartment with Gita." "Uh, this is our bedroom." "It's beautiful, isn't it?" "Gita moved here with me, uh-- that was 15 years ago." "[Door closes]" "And this is our bathroom." "Stephen, voice-over:" "She moved-- she had to go--she had surgery on--in May 2010." "That was 3 years ago." "Stephen, voice-over:" "I'll take a shower tonight at 7:00." "Edith:" "OK, maybe at 7:30 if you go later to Gita's." "I'll go--I'll go see Gita right now." "I think they're eating, still." "They're eating--no, they're still eating dinner." "They're eating dinner." "Yeah, because Erica was making it late..." "Yes." "because Gita wasn't feeling well." "I hope Gita will feel better." "I hope so." "She threw up." "She felt nauseous." "Yeah." "Did she tell you that?" "Yeah, she told me that." "When you were there?" "Yes." "I'm trying--I'm trying to be positive, man." "I'm just-- it's been kind of hard the past couple of weeks." "Last week I did something to a girl, and it wasn't right." "It felt--it felt kind of stupid, what I did." "I was bored." "I wanted to see what women felt like." "It felt good for a little bit." "Maybe for, like, 20 minutes it felt good, but it just felt like you-- two things." "It felt like you wanted to do it more times, but it just felt like whatever at the end because it just-- that wasn't" "I don't-- I don't know that girl." "I don't-- I don't love her." "I just-- it felt like," "I kind of felt bad for her a little bit." "People told me that-- I talked to 2 or 3 people." "[Whispers] I kind of want to say it when there aren't that many people around." "I kind of want to say it softly because it isn't good." "People tell me that, "Oh"-- p-people, they tell me, "Oh, you got ripped off for just touching her ass."" "People told me that "you could have gotten a ha--"" "People told me that I could have gotten a ---." "People--you know what this stuff means?" "People told me that I could have gotten a ---." "People told me that I could have gotten-- could have ---." "People told me that I could have... had --- her." "That's what people told me-- those 4 things, People told me people told me that I could have done those 4 things with--with the 20 bucks, that "you got ripped off"" "and "delete her number."" "She told me her name was Diamond." "That--that doesn't sound like a real name, does it?" "Dave, voice-over:" "I've been together with her for 8 years, and a lot of people are wondering," ""Why are you still just boyfriend/girlfriend?"" "A lot of people are asking," ""When are y'all gonna get married?"" "That's, um--that's always a big step for a guy to take, and got to make sure it's the right one." "When we talked about it, she made me feel like," ""Oh, I do want to marry you, but maybe now's not the right time."" "That's--it's not likely, but it's possible she might say that." "Uh, I--sometimes what she thinks is different from what I think, so..." "Lindsey, voice-over:" "I think before I said yes," "I'd want to ask him... what in particular had been holding him back the past few years, since when I first brought it up." "Gordon:" "Nobody was exactly at the same place at the same time." "I hope, for her sake, that-- that they will eventually make a--a firm and formal commitment to each other." "OK, maybe it's just a few simple words or something like that." "Maybe it's just a little formal ceremony, something like that, but it means something." "It makes a difference." "It--it gives a base for someone to feel self-confident about giving everything of themselves to the other person without restraint or without holding back." "But I think that's just one of the challenges that they've had to work through." "[Indistinct]" "So do you still, um, continue to think about the future?" "Like next steps and stuff like that." "Well, I--I thought we had that conversation recently about how I wasn't reading your mind and I wasn't sure." "Yeah." "And then you--you reassured me that, um, you... that I--I shouldn't be worried about anything." "Just I was gonna see if still-- everything is still the case." "Is that still the same thing?" "You wouldn't be hesitant to the idea of marriage, would you?" "I don't think you've ever been so candid about this conversation before." "I guess you've been thinking about it." "I have." "[Chatter from other tables]" "Well, I--I'll be honest with you." "I think regardless, I'm always going to be afraid of anything that involves, um, major life transition." "Right." "Right?" "And marriage is one of them." "Is what?" "I'm sorry." "Marriage is one of them." "Yeah, it is." "We seem pretty happy, though, as a couple, don't we?" "We seem pretty happy as a couple, right?" "Well, the question is, do we feel happy?" "I do." "I--I feel similarly." "Lenny:" "I am high class." "You know that?" "What?" "You calling me stupid?" "I'll call you stupid." "You know what?" "Let me tell you something, Matt." "I didn't know what the hell happened, man." "Let me just tell you what happened." "I wish I was not autistic." "There." "I'm gonna say it right now." "I don't like it." "It makes me different." "I don't like it." "I wish I could have been a normal person." "I wish I could have been a normal, regular person." "My mom says, "Be autistic." "Accept it."" "I tried accepting it." "It's hard." "Can I be honest with you?" "If I could change something-- if I could" "I'm gonna try to change it, but I told my mom this right now because of how disappointed I was." "I would rather be a normal man than be an autistic person with a million dollars." "There." "If God came up to me and says, "What do you want?"" "I don't want to be autistic anymore." "I wish you can give me a new li--me." "I could start my life all over again and I wasn't autistic." "There." "Let me be a normal person." "I bet you all the damn people I knew in middle school and high school, they're all in fricking college now." "I'm not in college." "That's what I wanted when I was in high school." "I dreamed of going to college, and I'm not in college." "I wanted to go to college." "I wanted to go to college!" "I don't--I think now I should have graduated college!" "I should have been in college right now." "I should have graduated college right now." "I know so many people that went to college, and they're done right now." "I can't hang out with people like that." "I can't." "Matt:" "Why not?" "Because they're higher-- they're higher than me." "Look." "They're up here." "I'm down here." "They're--I'm all the way down here." "They're all the way up here." "That's what I think." "Lenny:" "I want to get a girl that's kind of lower than me." "That's what I want." "If I found a girl that had a job, had a car, had her own home, I can't be with her." "She deserves to be with somebody better than me." "She's up here." "I'm down here." "That's the way I see it." "It's hard, man." "It's really hard to accept it, man." "Yeah, this is-- this is hard, man." "This is tough." "This is--this is probably one of the hardest things" "I have to go through in my life." "Don't cry, man." "Let me cry." "I don't want to see a tear come out of your eye." "It's hard." "What do you think about me crying?" "What do you think the peop-- the viewers could think about this?" "[Crying]" "It's emotional." "I can't let that happen." "I got no job." "I got no car." "I'm living with my parents." "I should be doing something." "I'm a good person, man." "I'm not a bad person, Matt." "I'm a good guy." "That's just" "It hurts." "It hurts, man." "He once told me that... that, um--he said, "You ever walk into a room... and you know everybody's talking about you?"" "And he said that's how he feels every day when he leaves the house, you know?" "So, um..." "I just want my son to be happy." "And, um, I think he needs to come to terms with who he is because he's not comfortable with who he is, and if he's not comfortable with who he is," "I don't know how he could ever expect anybody else to be comfortable with who he is." "Stephen, voice-over:" "I feel sad about Gita." "She died last April." "She had cancer." "That's sad." "She was laying down." "She was laid to rest." "I miss Gita." "I miss Gita." "When Gita died, we went to the--to work to tell him." "It was on a workday, and he was there, and when I told him, he just turned white like a sheet." "He put his head down on the table." "I could tell he was very upset." "She was gone." "Matt:" "Do you feel like you're still in love with Gita?" "No." "I stop loving someone--they die, because they die, because Gita died on April 9." "No longer in love." "Max:" "It is a big help for him to go back-- go back to work." "Edith:" "We encouraged him to pick up life like... normal, sort of." "Stephen, voice-over:" "I fell in love with Gita for the past 20 years." "And then gave--I gave Gita a hug." "I gave Gita a hug." "I--I put my arms around her." "Dave:" "In physics, we have something called electromagnetic spectrum-- how much energy a wavelength has." "You go from radio waves to light to ultraviolet, x-rays, gamma rays." "And then how I feel towards someone is kind of on a similar scale." "You have different wavelengths going from just physical lust, then you go--graduate from a general interest in the opposite sex." "Then you graduate from having a specific intense crush on a specific person." "Dave:" "And after that, it kind of evolves into another stage, which is the true love stage and not having that deep crush where you're thinking about her" "24/7 and you have a hard time sleeping because you're so much in love with her, but it kind of graduates into a more subconscious form." "Let's say you're going from light waves that you can basically see to ultraviolet waves." "They're still there, but you can't see them." "But they're stronger." "Is that making sense?" "Lindsey:" "Are you sure that was-- are you sure that was the spot where we did that photograph?" "I want to say it was taken somewhere around here." "Very--this is nostalgic, isn't it?" "Almost 8 years ago." "It's always amazing when you look back in time, how things have grown and how our relationship has grown and what we've been through has been really amazing." "That says something when you go for a relationship that long, that is a very strong signal that the relationship is meant to be." "And at first, um, you were kind of confused as to where we were headed, and I remember you telling me you were--you would have been totally happy just pursuing your career and being a single woman," "and then..." "Remember that slide you kind of show on your presentation-- is it the physics-related slide?" "Yes." "Yes." "Where you have... the wavelengths." "The alpha and the beta and the gamma?" "And the delta." "The delta." "And I think how I viewed our experience and our adventure together is that our wavelengths might have been different at different times" "It was a mutual thing." "And I think having those different wavelengths at different times may have been a significant reason why we both may have struggled to... really understand where we may be seeing ourselves in the far future." "But now I feel like our wavelengths are in sync." "I feel like we've grown." "We have." "And I want to only go by what's in here..." "Absolutely." "In here, too." "and what's in here." "And trust me, it's in here." "It's in here and always will be." "And I say that from the bottom of my heart." "[Sigh]" "[Laughs and cries]" "And it's OK to blush if you want to, but, um, understand if you do." "But, uh, this has been a remarkable journey, and somebody as beautiful as you deserves the very best and a life of happiness together." "And I would very much be honored... to have you as my wife." "Will you marry me?" "Yes, I will marry you." "There you are." "That's why I wore my vest-- to conceal that." "I--I was wondering about that." "But definitely in the delta region where it's true love." "That's the wavelength we're both in." ""Your task is not to seek for love" ""but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it."" "That quote really resonates with my life." "All the negative things that I heard on autism growing up, it definitely made me feel worthless or less." "I had consistently set up barriers to protect myself." "It's very easy to not feel like that you can trust people." "I thought that perhaps" "Dave was holding back more than I was." "But what I discovered through a lot of introspection is that I was really holding back, too." "Alex Trebek:" "This author's losing entry in a 1948 literary contest" "Who was Arthur C. Clarke?" "Alex: ...2001?" "Lars." "Lars:" "Who is Clarke?" "Alex:" "Arthur C. Clarke." "You are right." "Lars:" "U.S. Cabinet, 200." "Alex:" "Which Cabinet department, the Transportation Security Administration..." "Lenny:" "I'm gonna throw a penny in the water, make a wish." "When I make my wishes, I make it clear that I don't tell anybody, OK?" "Hey, by the way, there's some more ducks over there." "Why don't you go film them all over there?" "Lenny:" "Got one minute left, by the way." "When that one minute's over with, I'm gone." "I got to go back." "I like to get there early." "I don't know." "It's kind of fun doing this." "6 weeks I've been working here at Flora." "Here." "Here's your--here's the one right here." "A famous person that had a job like this when he was a young man was Kurt Warner." "You don't know who Kurt Warner is?" "He's the--he's the football player-- he's the quarterback who played for the Rams a long time ago." "You don't remember how that Super Bowl happened where it was the last second on-- they were one yard short of winning it?" "Well, he was the quarterback of that winning game." "All right." "I got to go back now." "Sorry." "Got to go." "Sorry." "Got to go back now." "I'm back now." "May I have a drink of water, please?" "OK, ready?" "OK." "All right." "[Plays note]" "So it starts here, OK?" "Ready?" "Mm-hmm." "[Playing "Heart and Soul"]" "Don't pound it." "Just gently." "["Heart and Soul" continues]"

"No!" "Don't!" "No!" "Don't!" "Bitch!" "Mama!" "Stop." "Stop it!" "Stop." "Mama." "Who was that man?" "Yes, I saw it." "What's going on?" "Please, no, don't scream." "Please, answer me." "Don't scream!" "Stop!" "Get up." "Well, is he still awake?" "Still sitting right where he was last night." "Beat to the sock, but wide awake." "Boy doesn't sleep, he doesn't dream." "He doesn't dream, he can't be reached." "He's got to roost sometime, sugar." "What's the matter?" "What can Lila do to make you feel better?" "Nothing." " Good morning, boss." " What's good about it?" "Enter." " Hey, Samson." " Lila." "He wants to see me." "Yeah." "I'll be out in a moment." "Watch your step." "Gonna need us a skull." "Small one." " Dog, cat." "Don't matter." " Christ." "Burley, I hope you like the taste of pride cos that's all there is gonna be to eat around here soon." " Osgood, run and get me a turtle shell." " OK." "Where the hell am I supposed to get that?" "You start with the turtles." "That dries up, you move on to the tortoises." "Possum, rustle me up some fryers." "Dozen or so." " Hell." " What?" " Fixing to play a fireball show." " Damn straight." "We got nothing in the kitty." "Or haven't you noticed?" " What's a fireball show?" " How do I pay for the fryers?" "You want I should just sculpt them out of corn meal?" "Six bits on the fryers." "Osgood, for the turtle." " What's a fireball show?" " Shut up, Osgood." "Get the word out." "We're going wide open tonight." "Wide as we can go." "Trim the chumps for all they're worth." "Now, git." "Jonesy, what the hell is a fireball show?" "Rita Sue." " Clayton." " Yes, ma'am." "I got some lights that are giving me trouble." "Think you could come by and take a look?" "No problem at all." "Woman's built like a brick bean oven." "Shut up, Osgood." "You look like a chewed-up piece of twine, Hawkins." "Does that mean anything to you?" "You kicked up a big cloud of dust stealing something just like it from Boffo." "Spike the back." "Go on." "You know what them initials stand for?" "Henry Scudder." "That's right." "It's yours." "Take it." "I don't want it." "The way I see it, rightfully belongs to you." " How's that?" " Cos it belonged to your daddy." "Come on by the ten-in-one after lunch." "If you want to, we'll have a chat." "A million hobos riding the rails." "Hobos, that's what he called them." "Forget the state police." "After today, we'll have an army looking for him." "Then I guess our baby will be blessed." "Join us tomorrow for another chapter of The Romance Of Erica S, brought to you by Cream of Wheat." "Come on, we're on." "No matter what your age, a bowl of Cream of Wheat is the perfect way to start any morning." "It has all the vitamins necessary to give you the get-up-and-go you need to get through your busy, active day." "So remember, next time you're at the grocery store, make sure you ask for it by name." "Nutritious and delicious Cream of Wheat." "Now, ladies and gentlemen, we present a special broadcast of True Tales From On The Road, a programme devoted to true tales and music of these hard times reported by our own Tommy Dolan." "Good morning, friends." "Today, in the continuing saga of Brother Justin, we have a wonderful treat." "With us is a remarkable woman," "Brother Justin's sister, Miss Iris Crowe." "Hello." "Folks, believe it or not, this is the lovely Miss Crowe's first time on radio." "She is here to send a message to her brother, a man we have spoken of many times in this programme." "A man who is still missing, still out there somewhere." "Justin?" "It's me." "If you can hear the sound of my voice, I want you to know that I'm praying for you." "Everyone in Mintern is praying for you." "Norman, the migrants, even some we used to count as enemies." "I love you." "God will grant you peace if only you will return home." "Come on."

"So how was it?" "With Rita Sue." "Did you have a good time?" "Sure. it was fine." "Pardon." "She do that extra special thing she does, the one with the feather?" "What do you want, a blow by blow?" "She was swell, OK?" "Just swell?" "With Rita Sue, that's practically a complaint." "She was great, fantastic." "I got a hell of a lot of things here, you know." "I'll see you later, Stump." "See you later." "I've been looking all over for you." " Samson's been driving us like a demon." " Jonesy." "What?" "Want to take a walk or something later?" "Sure." "That'd be fine." "Good." "Your sleeping habits are of grave concern to the man in the trailer." "That's real sweet." "Tell him I appreciate it." "There's no need to be afraid." " Afraid of what?" " Hawkins, please." "There is much I haven't told you but I've never lied to you, not once." "I'm only interested in truth." "And the truth is you're an extremely important man." "Not just to me." " What?" " The gift." "It must be practised if you wish to attain the skill necessary to control it." "If you don't, you risk placing everyone you know, everyone you love, in mortal danger." "And that is what happened to Scudder." "You must sleep, Ben." "You must listen to what your dreams tell you." " But..." " No matter how terrible." "They will guide you." "They will teach you to face your own power and control it." " l can't." " You must." "The cost of cowardice is far too high." "You know that." "Your mother?" "She was only the first victim." " What do you know about it?" " l know you could have saved her." "And yet you let her die." "How many more men, Hawkins?" "How many more must die?" "Go to hell." "Yes, I suppose I will." "Did you ever know anybody that went crazy?" "Crazy?" "Like, just wild?" "Or full-on basket-weavin', eyes-rollin' nuts?" "Nuts." "Oh, yeah. I do." "Homer Griffin." "Shortstop." "Real bright penny." "Was it slow, or did he just go batty?" "Gradual-like, little things here and there." "Like what?" "Sometimes we'd catch him staring off into space." "Real googly eyes, like Bela Lugosi." "What else?" "He started taking real long showers." "Scrubbed himself bloody one day, singing Take Me Out To The Ball Game." "They took him out, all right." "What?" "I think Mama's going crazy." "It's been gradual." "Like you said." "Last night..." "Go on." "Last night I saw some things." "Things, I guess, she used to be able to keep from me." "And now she can't." "Sorry." "Where are you going?" "The carnival is short-handed..." " What do you want me to do?" "I'll do it." " Nothing." " l'm not talking about the red pig." " Me, neither." "Sit down." "Just for a little while." " l really don't wanna talk about it." " Please!" "Where did you get that fob?" "Funny." "You didn't seem that interested in it this morning." "Where did it come from?" "What's it mean to you?" "Something happened with you and Boffo's ring, didn't it?" "Maybe." "There's a lot of people sniffing around you." "Lodz, Apollonia, the man in the trailer." "Care to tell me why?" " Not a clue?" " No." "I'll tell you something." "We didn't pick you up that day by chance." "is that a fact?" "That is a fact." "From the deepest, darkest bayou of Louisiana..." "Turtle Boy." "I lied to you." "I said I didn't know her." "That's your mama." "And furthermore, I reckon Hack Scudder is your daddy." "He left us flat." "I wouldn't give two cents for that no-account." "When he left your mama, it broke him." "Bad." "He didn't say nothing." "He didn't have to." "is this yours?" "Management's." "How come he never comes out of that trailer?" "I ain't at liberty to say." "You don't have to worry about it, though." "He's a good man." "More than I can say for your friend the professor." "You mean Lodz?" "I wouldn't call him a friend." "That's good." "I wouldn't trust that eel with his own mother." "But even eels have certain talents." "It was good just talking." "Yeah." "We should do it again, maybe." "It's gonna be OK." "Rita Sue." "Listen, we gotta talk." "I can't." "Felix is in the tent." "Come by tonight before the cootch." "It's been quite a while since I had a good woman to wait on me." "Rita Sue." "I'm sorry about that whole deal with Jonesy." "I just don't know what I was thinking." "It's OK." "He was just another trick." "What should I do if he wants to come back?" "You know what to do." " You had fun." " l was terrified." "But you were good." "You were." "It was an experience." "Thank you, for all you've done for Justin." "We're in this together." "That's what Justin always used to say to me." "He's a hero to me too, Iris." "Thanks to you." " What are you doing?" " What?" " You ought to be ashamed of yourself." " Hold on, Iris." "Iris, hey, I didn't..." "Look at all those lights." "Come one, come all." "Real, alive, and on stage." "Ten acts for the price of one." "There's Lodz, the mentalist." "He can read your mind." "Probe your deepest, darkest thought." "Because you're such fine, hard-working folks, tell you what I'm gonna do." "Tonight all the tickets are free." "Why don't we go on the Ferris wheel?" "Step right on up now." "Get your number." "I'll be right beside you." "Don't be scared." "OK?" "Easy, partner, let him get settled in." "Let him go." "You ain't gonna be scared up there, are you?" "All right." "Climb on, then." "Here you go." "Then just as she was about to give birth, the poor woman was scared spitless by a giant turtle." "Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and behold... the man-eating chicken." "Them teeth could be alive, alive, alive!" "When this vicious predator has finished with his victim, nothing remains but bones." "Step right up, folks." "Stay as long as you care." "Or dare!" "Ladies and gentlemen, the man-eating chicken." "We want our money back!" "You paid to see a man eating chicken, you got a man eating chicken." " What kind of show...?" " Hold on there, friends." "What'd happen... if you all went out and told your friends to come see the man eating chicken?" "It'll cost them a nickel too." "I'm receiving a strong mental vibration from the owner of this item." "It's a woman." "Heck, everyone knows a woman's watch is smaller than a fella's." "You're right." "Excuse me." "Allow me to try harder." "This was purchased from a travelling salesman." " Outside Waco." " He's right." " As a wedding present." " That's true." "Oh, my Lord." "That's true." "Difficult." "I need your help." "Will all of you please concentrate on this watch?" ""To spend all time with you."" "Does this phrase have any meaning to you?" "It's what Orville said when he gave me the watch." "His exact words." "How did he do that?" "It's what he does." "Another item, please." "By this sign, we conquer." "By this sign, we conquer." "How did you know what he was saying?" "Where the hell did you learn Latin?" "Latin?" "Hurry up and get born." "You'll have to trust somebody sometime." "The way things are shaping' up, it's either gonna be me or that one in there." "Your call, boy." "Go on." "Go help Ruthie." "Now, that should do it." " You've made real progress here." " Yes, considerable." " Good luck." " Thank you, Doctor." "Be still." "Rita Sue?" "Come on in." " l was just thinking..." " l don't know if this..." "You go ahead." "I was just going to say, I don't want you to take this personal or nothing but last time gotta be the last time." "You know what I'm saying?" "I know." "So you ain't steamed or hurt or nothing?" "Good." "That's real good." "You are a damn fine man, Jonesy." "You ain't too bad yourself." "Good. I'm glad that's settled." " That girl's just plumb amazing!" " Stand back." "Now, that's what I call snake charming." "Dig deep." "Show your appreciation." "Come on, now, gentlemen." "That's the idea." "I've never seen nothing like that before." "It was raining silver." "You are sounding more like a carny every day." "Yeah." "You're flaxed out, boy." "When's the last time you got shuteye?" "I'm OK." " lt's OK." " No." " Ben." " l'm sorry." "Sofie." "Isn't it a little late to be sitting out here smoking?" "I can't go in there." "Why not?" "Sofie?" "My mother always told me that my father left her." "He didn't." "He raped her." "She told you that?" "No, I saw it." "I saw it in my head like I hear her voice." "Since when?" "Last night." "She sees things that no one else does." "I mean, in the present, in the past." "It's all the same to her." "And I'm starting to see it too." "At least now we know why we've had so much trouble with young Hawkins." "I see." "We should've known that from Babylon." "I take it we're moving on." "Fireball shows, they leave us with no other choice." "That's good. I'll get some sleep." "Rest easy." "I almost forgot." "Well played, little man." "I wouldn't keep him waiting." "I wonder if that poor baby is ever going to get to the Land of Nod." "He will." "He will."

" Don´t think about it." " The shoes are tight." "I´ll exchange them and get bigger ones." " If we could stretch them..." " No, I´ll get bigger ones." "Bigger ones'?" "But they´re pretty, right'?" "Like them '?" "Come on, we´re leaving." "Take it off." "They´re too small." " I can tell they re small." " You can tell'?" "Sit down and take them off." "My glasses, I nearly sat on them." "Here, the shoes." "They re a little dirty, aren´t they'?" "Better clean them." "We are off." " You get back to work." " Alright then." " See you." " Bye." "Spanish National Radio, the news."

" Yeah, but..." " Ever so softly." "Of course, I could erase the marks." "The marks you drew." "What about the size'?" " Fine." " Mari says I needed a bigger canvas." "What do you think'?" "It looks alright to me." "It could have been bigger..." "Still, I think that those shapes over here are fine for the fullness of the quinces." "Yesterday..." "Wouldn´t you lower the tree'?" " You mean space'?" " And somes missing up here." "You can always add in the upper area." " You want to lower it all'?" " Yeah." "I want to let down the whole thing, I mean the fruits, the leaves." "Look, I´ve made some marks over here." "I want to lower the horizon down to here." "To lower it all some 6 centimeters." "Wouldn´t it better'?" "Stand back a little." "It isn´t the first time we´ve discussed it." "Yeah, but..." "How much more down '?" "More or less." "Look here and over there." "I have to bend a little." "I don´t know." "You shouldn´t loose too much floor either." "From here, how much'?" "Five or six centimeres'?" "It should be enough." "If you don t want to add to the upper area." "No, I prefer to take it all down." " Take it down." " Yeah, the shapes." "Yes, here." "Of course, composition-wise seeing it that way, it´s a bit short." "That´s right." "It doesn´t breath enough." "Yeah, in the upper area." "Alright, lower it, but I can´thelp it I feel it s cruel after all that work." "But nothing is lost." "It remains underneath." " The bed, isn´t it'?" " It´s underneath" "The bed, as it is called in pictorical slang." "Alright, go ahead." "Will you help me to trace a horizontal line'?" "Let´s see." "Let´s see." "Now this..." "See it better now'?" "There." " Take the ruler." " Alright." " On that tiny line, right'?" " That´s it." "Okay." "Bring it over there." " To the black line." " Alright." "Go ahead." " Done." " Make a mark on the edge." "What time is it'?" "Twenty to six." "My watch says twenty to six." "Did you call Conchita'?" "Antonio, did you call her'?" "No, I didn´t." "Well, maybe I will then." "She might have that picture It old you about." "The one she took of both of us In front of the Fine Arts School." "It would be nice to have it." "I was with Conchita in the Casón when I first met you." "You were wearing a uniform, you had been drafted." "Yeah, I remember it." "I came in and you were drawing," "Conchita was beside you." "Later on, you botht old me... you told me that you had told Conchita:" "Hush up, there´s an officer coming." "I can picture myself, tall and skinny swimming in a uniform much too large for me." "Some officer!" "Remember what sculpture you were drawing'?" "Not really." "I vaguely recall trying to draw something..." "You see, I came to Madrid because I want ed to be a cartoonist." "Althought I quickly got into the Fine Arts circle." "I saw the San Fernando School and it hooked me." "I decided to become a painter." "I had two classes." "I remember seeing you with your apron." "You were a veteran." "I was kind of lost." "I knew everything there was to know about comics so, well, I chose..." "I started drawing a sculpture, I can,t remember its name." "Antonio, look." "It was a Greek sculpture kind of bent forward, with an arm extended." " The Apoxyomenos." " The Apoxyomenos." "And I, full of innocence decided to use charcoal which dirties everything." "Worst of all I wanted to give it more movement." "It looked really awful." "Julio Hermoso came along with his pipe..." " Eugenio." " Eugenio, right." " And Julio Moises." " That´s right." "Eugenio Hermoso a kind man, but so old..." "Very old, he was about to retire." "He raised his pipe and said: "Yes he´s been in the Korean War."" "This man has been in the Korean War." "He left without another word." "Well, I learned quickly." "Nex time I drew a Venus." "Remember Soria Aedo'?" "Well..." "At least, he was fun." "He had flat feet and walked real funny." "I remember he used to tell us:" "Let´s see those hopes." "He was Andalusian." "There,s nothing like Seville." "Soria told me something that really helped me, the only thing that did." "I didn´t understand it then." " Always the same thing." " What was it'?" "He used to tell me:" ""Fuller, fuller."" "It´s true, he´d say that." "I had forgotten." "But we were so awed by our teachers That I never once dared asked him what it meant." "And then, time went by." " Later on..." " You understood." "And it s so important." "At least for me, it is." " For everyone." " It s..." "Fuller." "For the work to be fuller." "Anyway, I´m not going to explain that to you." " It´s basic." " We understand it now." "But you see, then, in school they were so..." "Especially Valverde." "They demanded too much respect." "We had to call them sir and they kept their distance." " That was the least of it." " But now kids in college don´t say "sir" to their teachers." "Can you imagine calling Valverde by his first name'?" "Or Soria'?" "That´s why you didn´t dare ask him what he meant by "fuller"." "I had forgotten all about it but he did say it." " "Fuller"." " And "Let´s see those hopes."" " I remember..." " Yes'?" "A painting you did in class." "A nude of the model we called Boticelli." "She had her back to you." "It was lovely." "Right." "You see, preparation... played a very important role." "We did it with Stolz." "The preparation already included..." " Of the canvas, you mean." " We used a lot of oil." "Then even a tiny spot gained a lot of strength." "It became very transparent." "But I still lacked experience." "I did that nude." "I remember you and others liked it a lot." "I remember a friar too." "It was the first exercise you ever did." "With his hand like this." " His hand here." " That´s right." "And the other one here." "Man, were those hands heavy!" "You were here and the friar stood there." "From that angle." " There was a window." " Yes, a window." "I copied it from a post card." "I really worked hard." "Did you destroy it'?" "No, an American couple bought it for 3.000 pesetas I think." " You didn´t paint over it." " No, it´s in the States." "Somewhere in the world." "Sometimes I wonder what became of it." "I mean, we had no money we bought the poorest of paints." "I suppose that painting must be in bad shape..." "I mean cheap colors don´t last." "By the way you asked me if I painted over my friar." "Jesus!" "We did some awful thing with those exercises." "Really..." "Know what I liked best about school'?" " What'?" " I m speaking for myself." "Being together." " Working together." " That was great." "We spent five years together." "We all graduated together." "We were good friends, like brothers." "Love between classmates was sincere." "...we spent most of our time together we could t ell if it was true or not." "It was all very nice." "And then whenever we had some spare time..." "Not too often, on week ends mostly we went to the park in small groups." "We went to cafes that no longer exist." "I got to know the Café Varela and its tapestries." "You went to cafés in those years'?" "Yeah, in the evening." "We´d talk and talk for hours we were discovering the world." "We´d probably be bored to death now." "Yes, but I never went to cafes." " No you didn´t." " It s the age difference." "You were 14 years old and I was 21." "I went straight to the boarding-house." "One evening we were at a table close to the window." "Suddenly, we heard someone humming Beethoven´s Ninth." "And there was Antonio López oblivious to all, directing himself." "It was wonderful." "Wonderful." "We felt such a passion for music." "Lucio specially." "We still do, but it´s different now." "How about some cookies'?" "Sounds fine to me." " There s some chocolate." " I´ll have chocolate too." "I´m thirsty, Have you got any coke'?" " There"s some in the fridge." " I,ll have one." "This painting is something else, isn´t it'?" "Know how old Michelangelo was when he did it'?" "Close to sixty, wasn´t he'?" "Sixty three or sixty four." "He was getting on, wasn´t he'?" "So he finished it at..." "It took him four years." "He was 63 when he finished it." "If it took him 4 years he finished it at 67 or 68." "Right." "Incredible!" "Isn´t it rather macabre to paint himself as Saint Bartholomew'?" "It´s something I,ve known for a while." "As people are always making things up I didn´t believe it at first." "But the resemblance is really incredible." "They discovered it last century." "No one knew it." " Where is he'?" " Here." "Yes that´s right." "Rather awful." "On the original, you can tell it´s him." "You know how people always say that some portraits look at you or that thing about the fly on the glass'?" "That´s why, at first, I didn´t believe it was him." "You know in a way it s a negative self-criticism." "What do you mean '?" "Well, you know he called himself "a poor madman"." " He wasn´t mad." " He said he was." "But he had a terrible outlook on life, didn´t he'?" "Yes, he did." "To create a god who threat ens not only the damned but also the innocent." "They all look kind of intimidated by their god." "They certainly do." "Here´s God." " The innocent are here." " That´s right." " The damned are here." " No, those are the souls." " Who go to Heaven." " They rise from the earth." "These go up..." " And these go down to Hell." " The resurrection, isn´t it'?" "The descent into Hell." "Would you like to be in that Paradise'?" "I´ve never believed in it." "No, I wouldn´t like it, fawning all over God..." "I don´t believe in that." "Besides, he´s a human God isn´t he'?" "God must be brought to man somehow that´s why God became a man." "Such a different god from the Greek ones." "Just look at her over there, so very full of light." "Yes, she embodies a healthy spirit and soul." "And physical prime." "While here, all these strong men are scabby." "Sorrowfull." "Guilty." "Michelangelo looks tremendously sorrowful." "They look guilty." "It was another world another thought, another time." "So much worse." "I mean, Phydias can be seen as a religious artist but you don´t notice it." "All you see is joy and beings in their prime." "And they´re powerful, muscle everywhere, but they re so..." " As if they denied life." " Yes, exactly." " I´llget you a coke." " Fine." "Can I... '?" "Can I have some cake, Antonio'?" "Hows the portrait going'?" "Well thats a challenge." " Have you done much'?" " Quite a bit." "The model is truly impressive." "So full." "As if..." "Whenever I look at her, I think of Phydias." "Those hands, that body, that head..." "If I could get close enough to the model say 7 per cent, I´d be satisfied." "You know Manolo loves what I do." "He says it´s doing well." "I don´t argue because I like to hear him say it." "But I know how much..." "But I know how much that portrait needs." "By the way, someone once told me that painters middle-aged painters in Paris men who are now the same age than us work with feverish intensity." "I didn´t understand it then but I admired them for it." "Now that I´m that age, I understand it." "I too work with intensity." "Time is precious." "I work non-stop now." "I know we have much vitality, I know that but but time as such can´t last much longer." "We still have a few years but unconsciously, our mind pushes us..." "Well..." "Spanish National Radio." "Yesterday, the Arab League asked the U.N..." "Let´s go." "Shall I take the chairs inside'?" "And the box too." "Take it."

"Have you got light at your place'?" "I know." "Shall I call Jan '?" "It s very late." "Here I was, happily painting away and I have to go to bed." "Wednesday, October 24" "So much glue." "Your shadow." " Alright, that´s it." " It is'?" "Let´s see." " My shadow´s in the way." " Right." " No problem." " There." "More towards you." "A little more." "That´s fine, leave it as it is." "Leave it." "It s drying over here." "The weather´s really rotten!" "Here." "It´s pretty damp." "It´s still very wet." "Give it here." "Let´s see if it´s stuck by tomorrow and I can start drawing" " Do you want to start tomorrow'?" " Well..." "I´ll glue the other side tomorrow." "I´ll start the day after." "I´m way behind as it is." "I don t think you´re going to make it." "I can try." "You finish it." " Over there." " I´m falling." "Okay, the methacrylate." "Well that´s it." "I´ll get the tiles." "I´ll give them to you." " Sure, let me." " No, dont." "We need more." "It must be stable." "No, don´t." "Give me another one." "Alright, that´s it." "Let it be." "Did you bring your car?" " And an umbrella?" " That I did." "Alright, let´s go." "Come on." "What a downpour!" "Let´s go." "Thursday, October 25" "Friday, October 26" "Saturday, October 27" "Crude went up again yesterday." "However, the initial hike of 3 $ on Brent crude was finally reduced to, 0.85 leaving the barrel at 33, 7 dollars." "The Madrid Stock Exchange lost 4 points." "Tokyo lost 346 points New York, 48."

"The two football teams Madrid Atletico and Barcelona play today." "Weather forecast." "Very cloudy skies in most of the country." "Heavy rainst orms in the Northern half..." "Sunday, October 28" "So you´ve left the canvas the painting." " I started drawing." " When ?" "A couple of days ago." "Why did you stop painting." "You didn t lik e it'?" "The weather was so rotten so unsettled, so horrible I couldn´t go on painting." "I wanted to show the sun on the tree." "But the light changed so often I couldn´t go on." "Will you be able to pick it up next year?" "You see, next year the quinces, the leaves will have changed." " So, that´sit." " Yes, that´s it." "You hadn´t painted one for a while." "That´s why I wanted to do it." "You did two quince trees..." "Mom told me to paint it and I liked the idea." " Now it´s Mom´s fault." " Well, I wouldn t..." "Alright, alright." "All I did was complain about the weather." "I haven´t been very lucky." "It´s typical October weather." "This year´s been worse than usual." "Truly horrible." "Monday, October 29" "Thursday, November 1" "Friday, November 2" "There isn´t much left." " She says it´s very good." " Good?" "You prefer drinking it hot in China, don´t you?" "It´s good this way too." "Apparently, in Madrid, people drink it cold." "Not really." "But I bring it early and by now, it´s cold." "Well, I like it" "Is it the first time you´ve painted this tree'?" "The third time." "Last year, I drew it." "It was a smaller drawing." "You probably like this tree very much." "Yes, I do." "I like quince trees." "The tree and its fruit." "I´ve drawn other trees but I have a kind of tendency to work on quince trees." "I don´t know why." "Well, the fruit is beautiful." "Maybe you planted the tree yourself." "I did, yes." "Some four years ago." "Well, that explains it, doesn´t it'?" "But I planted others." "I planted that one too." "I have noticed that your method is quite different from the ones used by others." " What others?" " Other painters." " I see." " As far as I know a lot of painters feel more comfortable working from a picture." "Well the best part is being close to the tree." "That is more important than the end result for me." "A picture doesn´t give you that." "That may also be because you love that tree." "That´s right." "Another thing that impresses her is the compactness of the compositions you normally do." "Well, here and in general I like the order created by symetry." "I centered the tree on the paper." "The heart of the vision is the center of the paper." "Apparently, a lot of artists avoid doing this because people don´t seem to like it." "That may be, but doing it this way the tree, in my opinion has presence." "By centering it by avoiding all esthetic games on paper with space... the object is shown in an ordered way in relation to symmetry." "Do you smoke?" " No, thank you." " What about you, Xao Ming'?" "Have one." "You had a question." "Thank you." "She´s wondering about those marks on the tree." "She´dlike to know if you use them to fix to get a perspective in your composition." "The marks in general or some in particular'?" "For example those white lines, those threads." "The threads." "This is the vertical line." "If you prefer, the center of what I see." "It´s also the center of what I´m representing." "This thread over there is the horizontal line also in the center." "So, taking these vertical and horizontal line I can place all my elements." "Now, these horizontal marks over here on the quinces and on the leaves show, since I started working how the fruits are lower because of the weight how the branches have bent." "They were over here." "This mark used to be over here." "Since I started the tips have gone down some five centimeters." "Here, it hasn´t moved." " So you keep on correcting." " Yes that´s right." "I corret." "I follow the tree." "I´m always parallel to the development of the tree." "Do you think you´ll finish it before the quinces fall?" "The tree s still fine." "I started a month ago." "She says it is now possible to see that the sun is shining lightly on the fruits and on the leaves." "It is very pretty." "Do you also wish to represent that light?" "It´s impossible." "In that sense, our language is very limited." "I may only show the boundaries of shapes and thus the tree." "But it will become an oil painting won´t it?" "No, I started with one and ended up with a drawing." "You see the sun It was there a moment ago, wonderful but it´s already gone." "It changes so quickly." "...I couldn´t go on painting." "It´s wonderful, but I had to give it up." "I had to." "You always have to give something up." "Monday, November 5" "What a beautiful tree!" "It´s madness!" "And just look at this one over here!" "He´s so orderly." "I suppose he must..." "Did you see the hot-house'?" "Of course!" "Look, this is where he stands." "He stands right here." " There are marks down there." " Sure." "He places his feet here." "Then, he uses this line plus the vertical one from the plumb line to refer to the mark on the tree." "That way, his point of view never changes." "He always has to see it from here from this point." "What if he blinks?" "He loses his point of view." "He does." "I´m really astounded." "I couldn´t see it that close up." "I´d have to work a little more removed." "Perhaps I´m more the spectat or than the act or." "I´ve always wondered about that obsession with physical space about square inches." "For me, feelings about colors are all-powerful." "No, what we have here is the perfect union between feelings and order." "It´s as if he were distrustful." "But it´salways feeling and order." "Reason and intuition go hand in hand." "How are you doing?" " Aren´t we all dressed up?" " Was there any choice?" "So, you´re admiring the model." "You don´t mind us seeing the ins and outs, do you?" "Of course not, they re pretty obvious." " They are, aren´t they?" " Besides, nowadays..." "It´s a map a map of the tree." " A map..." " Really, it is." "A map where..." " Have you seen this?" " I certainly have." "I didn´t want to mention it." "Goodness me!" "Wait, that´s about three days worth." "I don´t pick them up every day." "I don´t smoke that much in one day." "I bet the tree does." " Time to go." " Yes, let´s go." "Monday, November 19" "Wait, just a little more." "It´s in full decadence." "The leaves are hiding the quince." "You´re going to shadow it, like in Middle Distance?" "No, I can´t." "That tomato thing was so funny!" "Don´t make me laugh." "I´ll wreck the leaf and I´m ust go." "Don´t shake it, lower it a bit." " Listen, this is difficult." " Yes, I know." "Just a little more." "The poor thing won´t last much longer." " It is going to be long?" " Just a little more." "I´m nearly finished." "Alright." "Now, let´s see..." "I knew it." "The little one over here, just a little bit." "That´s it." "A little higher." "That rod is right on my nose." "Let´s see." "Have you had that problem with other trees?" "Well, I never..." "Should I look up or down ?" " It never took that long?" " Well, not so late..." "Not so late in the year." "We are in mid November." " Lower?" " No, now go to..." " Where?" " Let´s see..." "This one?" "Wait a minute." "That one over there." " This one?" "Careful..." "There, there, don t move it now." "That´s easy to say." "They´re getting bigger." "The quinces, I mean." "Incredible." "They´ll be huge." "Which one?" " That one." " Like that?" " Yes, one minute." " Come on." " Wait, let me see." "It´s hanging in there." "Look how lovely it is with the sun over there." "Friday, November 23" " Raise that leaf a little." " This one?" "That one, that one." "I can´t see." "Move a little." " Like that'?" " That´s right." "Aren´t these quinces full of lumps?" "See, they´real bumpy." "Look, over here." "It looks great." "Now don´t start." "Maybe you could give it a little more firmness." "Put the leaf over there." "I can´t see." "What was that?" " What did you say?" " I think this area is fine as it is." "You may be suffocating it a bit." "Why don´t you work on the lower part on the bottom leaves'?" " Which?" " The bottom ones." " Over here." " Just a little more." "To finish it." " Damn wind!" " God, it´s cold!" "I´ll sing a little." ""Darling, my darling..."" "That´s the song." "Start again." "Darling, my darling..."" " Again." " Do you want me to start again ?" "Wait, I´m eating." "You go ahead and draw." "Bet I look cute holding the leaf" "Alright." ""Darling, my darling spring of marjoram foam flowing on the river..."" " Dreadful!" " It is'?" " Again." " We were doing fine." ""Darling..."" ""Darling, my darling spring of marjoram foam flowing on the river morning star."" ""All over Seville I´ve planted defiant flags."" ""And each flag says:" "...darling, my darling."" " How was it?" " So, so." "I didn´t really like it." "We can do it better." "Shall we try again ?" "Alright." "Let´s see how do I do it." ""Darling, my darling spring of marjoram foam flowing on the river morning star."" ""All over Seville." "I´ve planted defiant flags."" ""And each flag says darling, my darling."" " Better, wasn´t it'?" " Yeah, better." "Shall I keep on lifting the leaf?" "It would be funny if it weren´t so serious." " Like that?" " A little more." " What?" " More time." "Time." "Well..." "Did you find Conchita´s picture?" "I didn´t." "I called her several times, day and night" "I tried through a mutual friend." "That´s enough." "But they´re probably on the coast." "There´s no way I can reach them." "We´ll have to forget the picture." "It´s a pity, it was so pretty." "Told you about it, didn´t I?" "Didn´t I ever see it?" "I don´t think so, she only gave it to me." "We were standing in front of the school." "That´s when she took the picture." "I remember it quite well." "I was quite impressed when I saw it." "We both had the same look a kind of tense face a kind of hunger, of passion for art." "Besides not having a cent to our name, of course." "We looked kind of angry, yes, that s right." "Well, if we re lucky I´ll be able to find Conchita some day and ask her for it." "Do you know how long I´ve been here?" "No, I don´t." "I mean, since I started working on this tree?" " How many months?" " Months, weeks..." "Monday, December 3" "Sunday, December 9" "Monday, December 10" "Alright." "It´s over." "Let´s cover the lemon trees." "Tuesday, December 11" " Choose the ripest ones." " This one?" " They´re full of spots..." " He paints everything." "It´s Dad´s doing." "He marked them to make a drawing." " Lovely!" " Look how big this one is!" "Remember when we made pounds of quince jelly?" "Lovely." "Beautiful." " How many do you need?" "A few more." "Wonderful." "How can such a small tree bear so much fruit'?" "All together two hundred and three." "Man we need at least six more houses for that." "Here you are, quince." " Do you want to try it?" " See what it´s like." "You want some, Marek?" "I´ll give you some." "What if it´s poisoned or something like that'?" "Don´t be silly." "Here, Marek, try it." " You sure it´s edible?" " Try it." "It tastes like an uripe pear." "Well?" "Nothing to go wild about." "Good for quince jelly." "A bit dry, isn´t it?" "Ready?" "The shirt and the socks are different." "I know, but it´s alright." "I can find them." " Are they here?" " Yes, they are." "They brought some things to hold." "We can choose them later." " Alright." "I´ll put this here." "Isn´t it pretty?" "Alright, wait." "Turn your head a little." "Not that much." "I think the head is higher." " Higher, isn´t it?" " I think so." "Wait." "Don´t move." "Get up, that´s it." "Turn a little this way, yes, that´s right" "The hands..." "Remember?" "This hand was more or less here." " You look great!" " Isn´t it pretty?" "If you like it, it´s fine with me." " What?" " You know my opinion." "Yes, yes, I know." "To work on a painting after so long I think..." "I could prepare a canvas that same size." "You´d start again completely free from the beginning, without worrying." "I think that would be the best." "Maybe I will." "I don´t know." "Give me a few days." "What you´re suggesting may be the best solution." "But I want to try something." "Let´s try it." "Isn´t it pretty?" "Lovely." " Like it?" " Very much." "What about this picture?" "That´s nice too." "Which should I be holding?" " We´ll think about it." " Both of them ?" "One?" "We´ll think about it." "We should take a trip." "Where would we go?" "To Greece." "I´m in Tomelloso in front of the house where I was born." "Across the square I see trees that had never been there before." "I recognize the dark leaves and the golden fruits of the quince trees." "My parents and I are beneath the trees along with some people I can´t seem to place." "I can hear our voices." "We chat peacefully." "Our feet sink in the muddy ground." "All around us, on the branches the ever softer, wrinkled fruit hangs." "Dark spots slowly cover their skin." "In the still air, I feel their flesh rotting." "From where I stand I can´t tell if the others can see it too." "Nobody seems to notice that the quinces are rotting under a light I can´t really describe." "Clear, yet dark, that changes all into metal and dust." "It isn´t the night light." "Neither is it that of twilight." "Nor of dawn..." "Spring."

"There's blood on the mattress, table and floor." "We found hair on the hat Nanna wore to the party." " Who had access?" " Jeppe Hald." " Traces of drugs." " News to me." "I want a lawyer." "My clients didn't sleep." " No lawyer present?" " I didn't question him." "Morten's e-mail preceded the leak." "I've known him for 20 years." "Why would he help Bremer'?" "The alliance is the top priority." "Do you believe in fate'?" "It was going so well." "Then a girl is murdered and everything changes." "We agreed to think of the boys first." "I want to know." "She was raped and beaten." "But she may also have been held captive." " Abrasions'?" " No, it's a pressure sore." "There's no evidence under her nails." "Someone cleaned and out them." "He knew what he was doing." "He may have done it before." "I'll be there." "I'm looking forward to seeing your parents, Ole and Missan, and Janne and Panne and Hasse and Basse and Lasse..." " Do you think there's a leak?" " Do you'?" "I trust all our people." " But it was a formality." " She got a new offer." "Hi, Kirsten." "It won't be you and me." "Damn!" " She'd have told you." " Pernille, I don't know." "She Wasn't upset with you." "She wasn't." "The experts confirmed that the cellar has dry rot." "We can't move now." "I can't do that to my family." " You've always ignored me." " There's a reason for that." "Theis, tell your Wife you can stay as long as you want." "You were always a good mum." "Not him!" " Someone else." " Who?" "Oliver could have given them to her." "Oliver could have been her date." "It's all wrong." "Don't smoke." " Show me what I've sent." " No need, Morten." "That's not mine." "I didn't write it." "I said no to Bremer." "We must set a new course." " Where from'?" " We found it in Jeppe's room." "A video on his phone." "I'll get them back in." "THE KILLING" "Meyer." " Where are you up to'?" " We just got back." " Don't question them yet." " We have them both here." "Hello?" "On your right." "Don't question them yet." "Last time I checked you and I had the same status." "I'm checking something first." "I'll tell Buchard you're in on this if that's what you're worried about." "Give me 20 minutes." " Bring back some beer." " Meyer!" "You've got two choices." "Either you confess..." "OF... we'll watch the rest and wait for your lawyer to arrive." "I've got enough time." "The choice is yours." "I know you did it and so do you." "So why not get it over With?" "Perhaps your friend will beat you to it." "Eh'?" "Maybe he's in the next room." "Maybe he's saying it was all your fault." "That you did it." "That wouldn't be good, would it'?" "Maybe it Wasn't your fault." "Maybe it was the other guy's idea." "Well, what to do?" "Play the waiting game or get it over With?" "It Wasn't her, damn it." " What are you saying?" " The girl in the basement." "How did you get in'?" "Through a door in the gym they always forget to lock." "How did you two meet?" "In primary school." "I was in 7th grade when we became friends." "When Nanna came here I decided to apply." "I didn't think I had a chance but I got in." "How much did you see each other in the end'?" "What do you mean?" "There are almost no calls or text messages between you lately." "Only from Nanna to you." "We fell out." "It Wasn't serious." " About Oliver'?" " I don't remember." " It was nothing." " But you disagreed about him'?" "Nanna didn't approve of him but you're in love with him'?" " What a weird question." " So you went with the boys'?" " Can I go now'?" " You left this down there" "We can look for that dress but it'd be easier if you come clean now." "Was Nanna in the basement or was it only you three?" "I was mad with her." "She was bossy and treated me like a little kid." "I wanted to stop him and I hit some empty bottles." "I out my arm terribly." "Oliver took me to hospital." "He was there all night." "He still had a thing for Nanna." " And where was Nanna'?" " I don't know." "I don't know!" "Around 9.30 she met me here and she gave me her hat." "She hugged me." "She said goodbye and left." "Hartman and the Centre Party are aligned." "That opens the door to a possible change in local government." "We can rise to the challenge together." "Turn it off." "Hartman appears to have regained..." "Your team is out celebrating." "They congratulate you." "My name is Troels." " Rie." " Rie?" "You look ravishing." "Why haven't I noticed?" "I don't know." " What about my father?" " I can't." "I'm bushed." "It's his birthday party." "Knud..." " We'll go to my place." " No, we won't." " Yes, turn here." " No, don't." "No." "Knud, We're going to parliament." " It's Morten." " I'm not talking to him." "If he sold out to Bremer he must be out loose quickly." "I checked his contract." "He's hired for the campaign." "We have a force majeure clause." " We can read his e-mail." " But it's not morally right." "I know and I am really sorry." "Why don't we forget Morten and Bremer and celebrate?" "Happy birthday, Dad." "You look great." "I feel great." "But we really ought to congratulate Troels." "It's only an alliance." "Happy birthday." " You know Bremer socially?" " Dad has many acquaintances." "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer." " Are you over the case'?" " The murder case'?" " Or anything else." " We're clear." "That's it." "Good." "It would be hard to back you otherwise." "Dad, not tonight." "Many in the party, including the prime minister, want to know if you're in control of things." "Everything's under control." "Excuse me a moment." "People are nervous." "He might split the party." "He doesn't want to do that." "Do you have a minute'?" " Just a moment." " Yes." "Excuse me." "Did I force you to pay too high a price?" "Not at all." "I found out what you've been up to." "Morten has been fired." "I don't know what you've got on him and I don't care." "But it stops here." "And if I ever catch you playing games again" "I promise I'll sue you." "Understand?" "I must say I have no idea what you're on about." " If you say so." " Troels..." "I've always liked you." "From when you were Wet behind the ears and gave your maiden speech." "You see, today I've suffered a defeat." "It doesn't happen often." "But when it happens I don't like it." "And I don't like you coming here with your paranoia." "If I wanted to crush you wouldn't I have done it a long time ago'?" "Think about that." "We drove around looking at vineyards." "The whole town was decked out, so it was a bit of an event." "What about the flowers for the church?" "Charlotte is taking care of it." "Did you get the wine, then'?" "We drove to Beaujoulais." "It was the week the Nouveau was released." " I've collected the boots." " Right." "The week When... the Nouveau was released." "What are the police saying?" " We'll know when they know." " They'll keep you up to date?" " Did you buy some wine?" " No, we left quickly." " They must say something." " We must trust... that the police do their job." " You keep in close contact?" " We won't interfere." "" Why nor?" " Mum!" "Why don't we let Pernille and Theis get some rest'?" "Sorry for saying it but it's only natural..." "Mum listen to what Theis and I are saying." "We don't interfere." "I remember when you two met." "You promised to look after her." "We'll work it out." "How will you work it out, Theis'?" "I'm not sure I understand you." "She's shattered." " We're leaving now." " Yes." " Call if there is anything." " Yes." "I changed the spark plugs." "Theis, there's something else." "I know you told us to stay out of it but..." "I met Jannik, our old driver." "His Wife works in the high school office." "If you want to know what the police..." " Not now, Vagn." " No." "I just thought..." "Please read your deposition and sign it." " Is there someone at home?" " Yes." "You have no idea who she was meeting that night?" "No, but she was happy." "She was looking forward to something." "I've charged them with perjury." " They didn't co-operate." " Haven't they had enough?" "Why didn't you inform me'?" "Why didn't you tell me'?" "I look like a fool." "You're Working against me." " I tried to tell you." " No, you didn't." " You live in your own bubble." " Okay." " I'm sorry." " I can't smoke..." "I can't eat or raise my voice at anyone." "You must be happy I'm going soon." " And We've got nothing." " You're wrong." " What?" " Lots." "If you'll listen." "We know this about the perpetrator." "Analyzes indicate that he sedated the girl with ether." "He held her captive and abused her for 15 to 20 hours." "When he was through, he Washed her and out her nails." "He drove her to the woods and chose a spot Where he could be alone with her." "He toyed with her, letting her run to recapture her." "We also found a pair of designer boots in her room." "The parents hadn't seen them." "They're expensive." "She couldn't have afforded them." "The necklace is still a mystery." "It could be the perpetrator's or a gift." "The car..." "It was outside all night and the keys were inside the school." "The next day it was gone." "But most importantly..." "I believe... is that she had a secret date that evening." "She changed, left her costume at the school and met someone who... not even her best friend knew about." "You don't mean a school teacher?" "Good." " We'll start all over." " Yes." "The school belongs to Hartmann's administration." " He'll expect to be informed." " I'll call him." "And you'll have to stay a bit longer." "I can't." " Mark starts school on Monday." " Her staying is a bad idea." "I'm getting used to the routine." "Our Working relationship isn't functioning." "I think Lund should stick to her plan and go to Sweden." "He hasn't eaten yet." "The board and I have decided to suspend Jeppe Hald and Oliver Schandorff from the school for the time being." "They've admitted taking drugs and their future here is in doubt." "I'll also mention that the police are here again to ask about Nanna Birk Larsen." "Why'?" "They want to talk to all of Nanna's teachers." "They'll work around your schedule and I ask you all to co-operate." "Thanks." " Tell them." " It's irrelevant." " They'll find out." " When's the per-natal class?" " You don't have time." " I want to come." "Aren't you playing with the boys tonight?" "Rama, about those flowers for Nanna, could we send them on?" " I'll do it this afternoon." " Thank you." " Tell them when you see them." " See you." " We were leaving tonight." " I can't make it." " Tomorrow, I'll..." " Just before the guests arrive?" "Time enough." "I need to fit out the guest room and measure the curtains." "I'll have to hang them before the housewarming." "What about..." "you staying with us next week?" "You're on holidays." "So instead of going away with Birgit you could... stay with us all week." "I'll move to your fiance's place and take your son to school so you can Work?" "It was just an idea." "Any hot coffee?" "Did I really bring you up to be such a mother?" "You've hardly spoken to Mark." "I've been busy." "Your son's 12." "You know nothing about him." "I have to go now." "Do you know he's got a girlfriend'?" "Mark and I have a special relationship." "He's independent and doesn't need to live in my pocket." "And of course I know he's got a girlfriend." "I'm off now." "Me too." "Mark!" " You didn't eat breakfast." " I'm not hungry." "I'm sorry about this week." "I'll get organized." "Grandma says you've got a girlfriend." "That's great." " What's her name?" " Never mind." "Invite her to Sweden." "I'm running late for school." "I'm busy." "Mark..." "I'm interested in what you're doing." "She broke up with me." "You don't give a damn." "You only like dead people." " You said it was finished." " I didn't." "You didn't say anything about a teacher." "We're not sure." "We're checking." " We're off." " Coming." " What have you found out?" " I can't tell you." "They're my schools and my teachers." "I must know how to react." "And I'll tell you as soon as we know." "Who's being investigated?" "I must know something to protect myself." "You made me look like a fool." "I can't drop everything because of your campaign." "I'm just as interested in catching him as you are." "But what if you're Wrong?" "If you're not sure." "If it's not a teacher." "You're starting all this with the teachers, students..." "I haven't had time to think about that." "Of course we'll be careful not to start any rumors." "Sure." " Good." "That was..." " Yes." "We want to help." "Administration can send copies of employee files." "That would be good." "Thanks." " I'm looking for Jan Meyer." " He'll be here soon." " I'm Sarah." "I work with him." " So that's what you look like." " I've heard a lot about you." " I can imagine." "I know him." "He means well and he thinks you're very good." "He must take these every hour or else he must eat the bananas." "Coffee and corn chips are out." "His stomach can't take it." "It's hard to start in a new place." "Let's hope he succeeds this time." " Hi, sweetie." " Hi." " What are you doing here'?" " You left these in the car." " Oh, yes." "Thanks." " Take care." "Have a nice day." "Together." "The two of you." "Ready?" "The police will inform us as soon as they know more." "We must be prepared for the press to move in but as long as it's only guesswork, don't beat it up." " Shall we start?" " Do they suspect a teacher?" "That's one theory, yes." "You know what that means." "The press won't discriminate" " It's out of our hands." " If it's a teacher, you'll be blamed." "You won't be in the clear." " What do you suggest?" " To check them out." "And make sure our office is in the clear." " Our office?" " I want permission to do that." "Okay." "Go ahead, then." "No more questions?" "Let's start." " Where's Morten'?" " He's on sick leave." "It's his back." "We're Working around it." "That's why we all have to work harder." "Today's agenda." "The integration campaign starts with the role model event." " Have you heard from Morten'?" " No, I left a message." " He's rostered off sick." " Bremer didn't know." "He said he has no connection to Morten." "He wouldn't broadcast it." " Dinner tonight, yes'?" " Yes." "We have to eat." " Surprise me." " Yes." "Some files for the administration?" "See you." " They're here." " Yes." "We'd like a meeting with the director." "Of course." "I know he's busy but I can help if necessary." "We need info about Frederiksholm School." " What kind of information'?" " Employment contracts." "Personnel files for all teachers." "The key points..." "I'll check it." " What's the alternative?" " Selling it without renovating it." " You'll lose money." " How much'?" "It's hard to tell." "I don't know." "Give me a figure." "Up to half a million." "A third option is to renovate it yourself." "But it's a big job." " My condolences." " Thanks." "We're actually done here." "Think about it and call me." "Something Wrong?" "It's just about the sale of the house." "Theis, I can't... decide which one to choose." "The White one is... fine." " How old are you'?" " I'm 35." "Describe Nanna." "Extrovert, happy and very clever." " Your relationship was good?" " Absolutely." "It was fine." "She was a smart girl." "Did you see her outside school?" "No." "I seldom see students in my spare time." "I've got enough to do My wife's pregnant." " How lovely." " We're excited about it." "Did you see Nanna at the party?" "No, I had the first shift." " I left at 8 p.m." " For a date?" " With whom'?" " With my wife." "Why'?" "We've got what we need." "Nice of you to come." "Please send the next one in." "Did you eat my bananas?" "I've thought of something." "I don't know if it's relevant." "Some months ago Nanna Wrote an essay for a test." " She Wrote a novella." " And why is that relevant?" "It was about a secret love affair between... a married man and a young girl." "It was very erotic." "She presented it as pure fiction but..." "I recall I thought a lot about it." "Why'?" "I thought it might be based on personal experience." "How was it erotic?" "It described their meetings very intensely." "You didn't tell us when we first spoke." "Because..." "I didn't know if it was important." " We'd like to read it." " Yes." " Where is it'?" " In the storeroom." "It was a preliminary test." "Yes..." "Can we see it'?" "I've mulled it over again." "I couldn't have been in the office at the time." "What do I do between 5.30 and 6'?" "I meditate." "You know that." "Everybody knows." "Is that it'?" "You still have 15 minutes." "Remember your first conference speech?" "1986 Or '87." "You were nervous because of the TV coverage" "You rehearsed all night." "What did we promise each other?" "Some other time, okay?" "Troels..." "Watch the public servants." "When I left the light was on in their office." "Someone was in there." "This is the start of our new campaign." "Mr Hartman is there with some of the role models." "Bring your photographer along." "Fine." "See you." "Otherwise it's fine." " So?" " It's a model school." "No dubious personal cases." "On the contrary, the teachers are very qualified." " Nothing rings alarm bells?" " Not as far as I can see." " But What's it about?" " I told you, it's just routine." "Things run smoothly under Troels." "Thanks for your help." " What's your name?" " Olav." " Have you found it'?" " No." "It's not here." " It should be." " It isn't." "We've checked all the boxes." "This box was opened, unlike the others." "A teacher who's a linguist has read some of the essays." "He has to write a report on trends in languages." " And his name is'?" " Henning Kofoed." "But he would put things back." "He's very meticulous." " Why didn't we talk to him'?" " He didn't teach Nanna." " Is he here now'?" " No, only in the mornings" "May we have his address?" "Yes." "I've got it in my office." "Hello." "It'll take ten minutes." "She looked beautiful." "We must remember to get the flasks." "Mum can lend us two." "I need some more Washer fluid." " With me, you say'?" " The test..." "Okay." "But I don't understand." " Could I send it to you'?" " We'd like to take it now." " You did have the test here'?" " Yes, I must have misplaced it." " Did you read it'?" " Yes, I read many things." "Nanna Birk Larsen?" " How long have you taught'?" " Five years." "Five years?" " Do you get time for research?" " I spend a lot of time on it." "What's your subject?" "Developmental language." "The dynamics are interesting." "Words like ciabatta were unknown some years back." "But French bread..." "Rather than talk about bread, look for that essay." "Yes, it must be here somewhere." "No..." " Did you throw it out?" " Never." "Oh!" "I knew I had it" "Sorry." " I'll see you out." " Thank you." "We need to talk." " Where were you on Friday?" " A conference." "I told you." "Youth and language." " Until?" " 10 p.m." " What did you do then?" " I came home." " Can anyone verify that?" " I live alone." "I spend most of my time working." "When you're Working you play with yourself, don't you'?" "I object to your tone." "I could arrest you for this." " They're not illegal." " No, I presume not." "But we could take your computer." "And possibly your external hard drive." "Would we find some funny things?" "Shall I tell you how you'd be received in prison?" "I've never done anything." " I Wasn't accused." " You can be." "Accused?" "Who was accused?" " I don't know much." " Who are you talking about?" "It was..." "I don't remember." "Nothing came of it." " It was never reported." " What are you on about?" "The girl withdrew her accusation." " He was exonerated" " Who was'?" "Rama." "He teaches Danish." "The flowers have wilted a bit." "Thank you." "The class would like to attend the funeral, if that's okay." "Yes, of course." " You're also welcome." " We'll all be there." "I won't disturb you." "Tell me something about her." "Anything at all." "Anything." "She was interested in Aristotle in connection with our drama group." "I told them about his importance to the art of acting." "She was very interested." "Once she suggested our plays should last from dawn to dusk like the ancient Greek plays." "I think... she was joking." "She helped me make this table." "We spent all Easter on it." "Shit, man!" "You gave me a shock." "Are you okay?" "Seven days ago... she walked out our door." "She was going to a party." "I saw her again today." "But... it Wasn't really her." "She Wasn't..." "It was as if she... was..." " I'll get Pernille." " No." "You said Jannik heard something." "I haven't talked that much with him." "His Wife says the police are still at the school." "They're looking for something." "They're asking around." "She may know more than what I've heard." "So..." "I could try to..." "Do that, Vagn." "Test the Waters." "Frederiksholm is a model school." "The teachers are clean." "Nothing there." "I met Morten today." " We must check something." " Not now." "The plan is for a photo shoot, then you'll meet the role models." " The public servants leave when?" " Concentrate." "He's one of the best." "He trains the youngsters." " We might have been too hasty." " Troels, not now." "There he is." " Hi, and welcome." " Nice to meet you at last." " Are you ready?" " Yes." "When I've tied my laces get ready for a beating." "Subtitles:" "Zanne Mallett Brenden Dannaher" "Subtitles SBS Australia 2009"

"YEAH, YEAH, I COULD'VE," "BUT THAT'S NOT REALLY HOW I LIKE TO DO THINGS." "I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, DUDE." "SHE IS ONE TOUGH NUT TO CRACK." "YEAH, BUT EASY ON THE EYES." "MM-HMM, BUT DON'T GO THERE." "IT DOESN'T END WELL." "REALLY?" "TRUST ME." "SO YOU'VE BEEN ON PETER'S TEAM FOR A WHILE, HUH?" "YEAH." "HANLEY, RIGHT?" "YEAH, YEAH." "PETER--PETER'S THE BEST." "HE'S THE REASON I'M HERE, LITERALLY." "HE IS AWESOME." "ALL RIGHT." "IT'S ALL YOURS." "GREAT." "AH." "I THINK THIS ONE'S YOURS." "OH, THANKS." "THANKS." "VERY FUNNY." "WHAT?" "THAT'S GREAT-- THE DIFFERENT DATES." "WAS THAT JIMMY'S IDEA?" "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" "YOU KNOW, MAKING THAT LOOK LIKE TAMPERING WITH EVIDENCE." "YOU KNOW, PETER SAID YOU'D BE A GOOD FIT ON THIS TEAM." "HE THINKS YOU'RE A GUY" "WHO KNOWS WHAT IT TAKES TO GET THINGS DONE." "ARE YOU?" "RIGHT." "THAT'S--THAT'S ME." "GOOD." "HELLO?" "Hi." "Hi." "It's..." "It's me." "ARE YOU..." "DOWNSTAIRS." "YES." "THIS IS WEIRD." "NO, IT'S NOT WEIRD." "I KIND OF LIKE IT." "IT SAVES ME A TRIP UPSTAIRS." "You know, um," "WHEN I, UH," "I SAW YOU..." "THE OTHER DAY, upstairs, I, uh..." "NAKED?" "Yeah." "I STARTED TO REMEMBER..." "I DON'T KNOW, A LOT OF STUFF." "YEAH." "ME, TOO." "UM, THAT'S..." "WHY I WAS CALLING." "I WANTED TO ASK YOU SOMETHING." "SURE." "WHAT'S UP?" "I WANTED..." "TO ASK YOU..." "ON A DATE." "Like a real date." "YOU KNOW, LIKE, UH," "WE JUST..." "MET OR SOMETHING." "WELL, DO YOU-- DO YOU WANT TO?" "DO YOU WANT TO?" "I AM THE ONE WHO IS ASKING, DAVE." "YES." "YES, I DO." "MOMMY!" "OH, GREAT." "ONE OF THE GIRLS IS UP." "WHOA, HOLD ON A SECOND." "YOU GOT KIDS?" "BYE." "BYE." "YOU'RE A GREAT NANNY." "THE BEST." "I'M SORRY ABOUT FIRING YOU." "IT WAS JUST REALLY DUMB." "THE TRUTH IS THAT-- THAT I HAD THIS..." "DREAM THE OTHER NIGHT," "AND--AND--IT SPARKED THESE THOUGHTS, AND, WELL," "IT WAS..." "IT WAS SEXUAL." "THE DREAM--IT WAS A SEX DREAM ABOUT US..." "HAVING SEX." "RIGHT, BUT IT DIDN'T REALLY MEAN ANYTHING, YOU SEE," "BECAUSE I'M STILL VERY HORMONAL, AND YOU'RE THE ONLY GUY AROUND." "SO I THINK IT WAS JUST MY BRAIN PUTTING TOGETHER THESE ELEMENTS" "THAT WERE JUST CRAZY." "CRAZY?" "CRAZY, YEAH, BECAUSE IT WAS SOMETHING" "THAT WOULD, YOU KNOW, NEVER HAPPEN IN REALITY." "YEAH."

"Back up." "Move back a little bit." "Stay back." "Come on, let the funeral through, huh?" "Stay back." "Get Laura." "That's the daughter." "Get a close-up." " Excuse me..." " Hey!" "Don't touch the camera." "Miss, please don't cause any problems." "We're not causing any problems." "John, let's get McKenna." "Captain McKenna?" "Captain McKenna, any leads in the murder of Jackie Wong?" "Nothing." "Do you think this killing means there is a war going on in the Chinatown tongs?" "No, I don't." "This is basically a situation where the youth gangs are lashing out at the Establishment." "The community's cooperating." "The situation's under control." "Hey, kid!" "What's going on?" " We got to talk, Lenny." "Privately." " Sure." "Some funeral, huh?" "So, what's new, kid?" "Listen, no news this week." "But I got some pretty good uptown you should try." "Give you a taste for nothing." " Greaseball don't listen so good, Lenny." " What?" "You want to play games?" "It's loud and clear." "This is our street now." "You wanna stay on this street, you pay us." "Come on, Ronnie." "Me?" "You wanna extort money from me?" "You know who my cousins are?" "I know what I need to know." "Fuck your cousins." "No one rides free any more." "You owe me money." "It's 300 a week to operate out of here." "Four weeks, that's 1200 bucks you owe." "You come across Canal Street and start throwing your weight around here?" "You Chink scumbag, you'll end up with a wire around your fuckin' neck." "Now get outta here before I kick your ass." "Hey, kid." "The rumour is, Jackie Wong was more than the unofficial mayor of Chinatown, that he was also the head of a secret Triad." "Jackie Wong, no question, will be missed." "He was loved." "He made money for his people." "But the head of a secret Triad?" "There's no Triads in New York." "I'm sure, Captain, you've heard rumours that Wong's successor, Harry Yung, was a corrupt Hong Kong policeman who came here with $15 million." "$15 million?" "That's a good one." "Somebody should tell Harry Yung that." "I have no further comments at this time." "Do you have that?" "OK." "You're a hell of a reporter, honey." "Except you're talkin' to a guy with a bag on his head and cotton in his ears." " Stick around, you may learn something." " Who are you?" "Just ask for Stanley White." " Which Stanley White?" " There's only one Stanley White." "Hello, Will." "How's the view up there?" "You can see a long way." "Still believe in keeping a high police profile?" "If you wore your uniform once in a while, you'd know that police visibility's the strongest deterrent to crime." "It doesn't look like you're deterring too much around here lately." "Aren't you in the wrong precinct, Captain?" "Not really." "They gave me a new command." "Yeah?" "What'd they give you?" "Chinatown." "That's right, Will." "They just cut off your oats." "Why?" "Because of this?" "How was I supposed to prevent this?" "How am I supposed to prevent anything around here?" " Come on, I'll buy you a cup of coffee." "Ah, what the hell?" "Like I told you before, man... no pictures!" "John... go to her." "Right there." "Get Laura Wong." "Get the close-up." "Come on." " That's the daughter." " You people..." "Hey!" "Don't touch the camera!" "Get rid of the camera!" "The camera is none of your business!" "Go away!" "Enough!" "What'd I tell you before?" "Get on outta here." "He's over there in the back." "Tell me when, OK?" "Tell me when." "And so, with the passing of Dai Jackie Wong, a piece of Chinatown history passes with him." "This is Tracy Tzu, WKXT News, Mott Street, Chinatown." "What are you assholes doin' around here, huh?" "Get off, you fuckin' bastard!" "Get off!" "You can't come down here, man." "It's no raid." "Keep on playin'." "No problem." "Lookin' for Uncle Harry." "Uncle Harry?" "Not here, white devil, get out!" "Where's Harry?" "Not here, white man." "Hey, he's going to be back soon." "You tell Harry I'm comin' over." "Get out!" "Let's play!" "How could you have let the white devil in?" "What the..." "What's going on with you?" "I'm lookin' for Uncle Harry." "Where's Harry Yung?" " Where are you going?" " Harry in there?" "Where are you going?" " Wait." " Thought we should have a talk, seein' we're both new at our jobs." "Why did you go to the gambling place, huh?" "We had the same arrangement over long period of time." "No policeman "ever" go to gambling club!" "Foolish man!" "Rude..." "I'm going to have to tell your superiors." "It won't be the first time, Uncle Harry." "I'm glad you guys are here." "Saves me some lung power." "This is it." "I'll give it to you fast." "There's a new marshal in town." "Me." "New marshal means new rules." "New rules means no more street violence." "You collar the gangs." "I don't wanna see their fucking faces unless they're bringin' me spareribs." "I don't care what you do." "Get 'em jobs catching' cockroaches." " But you get 'em off the streets." " Nobody can control the gangs!" "Everybody knows that." "Too big a problem." "Captain, Chinatown behind you all the way." "In favour of what you do." "You take gang kid in the alley." "You put bag over their head." "You beat them with club." "Chinatown behind you 100 per cent." " 100 per cent!" " 100 per cent behind..." "Good." "Cos I'm gonna need your help." "I wanna put a stop to all this bribe-paying and extortion to the gangs." " I want the help of all 60 families." " 60 families?" "No, no, no, no, no." " And I want you people..." " Wait a minute." "This very difficult." "Very, very difficult." "It's a long history." "For thousands of years, Chinese do not go to the police." "If they go to the police, they'll get in trouble." "So, I'll tell you straight." " Nobody will come to see you." " Oh, yeah?" "You tell him what we mean." "No disrespect is intended to the police by our remarks." "But if the citizens of Chinatown regard what you call extortion and bribery as part of the cost of doing business, and have felt that way for thousands of years, why should you be so concerned?" "What about the ones that don't wanna pay?" "Tell him." "You know, Captain, when I first came to New York," "I worked as a waiter in a restaurant." "Saw something terrible happen because my boss did not want to pay." "I signed a complaint against a gang leader who was arrested." "Next day, he was out on the streets again." "Six months go by before his trial, and the police chief was transferred to the Bronx." "This was - what?" " Six..." "six or seven chiefs before McKenna." "Seven." "And the new chief dropped the charges." " Three months later I got stabbed here." " Sure." "See?" "You must understand, Captain, to us, your Good Samaritan was a fool to risk the security of his family to help a stranger." "Uh, you're too impressed with yourself." "Fuck you." "What did you say?" "I said "Fuck you."" "I'm tired of all this "Chinese this", "Chinese that"." "You people, you think gambling, extortion, corruption are kosher because it's a thousand years old?" "Well, all this "thousand-year-old" stuff, it's a lot of shit to me." "This is America, and it's 200 years old, so you'd better get your clocks fixed." "You're not special, and you're not beyond the law - any more than the Puerto Ricans or the Polacks." "So we're all gonna obey the law the way it says." "So start doing something about it, and fast, or you're all gonna suffer." "You can believe that." "How will we deal with this?" "Morning, Stan." " Morning, Stan." " Hi, Stan." " Hi, Stan." " Morning, Stan." " He's early." " He's always early." " I got a complaint about you already." " There's a line around the block." "A Harry Yung was upset you bust into his place of business on a day of mourning." "He says you're threatening the arrangement we've always had." "What is this arrangement?" "Is it carved in stone?" "Did it come out of a burning bush?" "What the hell did you rush in there for?" "You made them lose face, you made us lose face." "You got no respect?" "They were just having breakfast." "What evidence did you have to go in there?" "With these people, you're not gonna have any evidence." "You're talking shit." "I didn't buy this job at Macy's." "You gave it to me." "And I told you to kick ass on the youth gangs, not the old guys." "You lay off them, you hear?" "Fifth Precinct's a nice quiet area, Stanley." "Good springboard for promotion, if you get my meaning." "Lou, I've been down there one goddamn day." "Doesn't take a genius to figure out something's going on." "There's gonna be blood in the gutters." "These Chinese will muscle across Canal." "They're gonna push the Mafia out." "I'm talking banks, real estate, drug money." "Who told you all this?" "The DEA?" "They've been peddling that bullshit Chinese Mafia theory for years, and they never made a case in Chinatown." "I wouldn't believe..." "You don't know what you're talkin' about." "The Mafia concept's not even Italian, it's Chinese." " It's Chinese." " It was invented in China 1,000 years ago." " They call 'em Triads." " Triads." "That's what we have here - the offshoots of the Hong Kong Triads." "Stanley, you're letting your imagination..." "No." "Lou, like hell I am." "These people are the biggest overall importers of heroin in this country." "The fact that we don't have a single bust against one of them tells me somethin'." "They're smart." "They're smarter than you are, and Kearney, this Irish sphinx." "At least I didn't change my name, Wizynski." "What do you want?" "You wanna attack Chinatown with the 82nd Airborne?" "You're not in Vietnam here, Stanley." "There, I never saw the goddamn enemy." "Here, they're in front of my eyes." "They got no place to hide." "This is just like the South Bronx and Red Hook." "You got a bunch of delinquents, youth gangs..." "Call 'em what you want." "Snot-nosed Chink scumbags." "Go and kick their asses." "That's what you're good at." "Youth gangs?" "These are midget hit men." "You know what your problem is?" "You work like a piece of heavy machinery." "Nobody likes you, Stanley." "They tell you you're a great cop, but they don't like you." "So what?" "Just put my request through, will you?" "Kearney, pleasure talking to you - it's like one hand clapping." "All of a sudden, this job's made you an expert?" "!" "He's got a thing for Chinks." "Yoo-hoo!" "Connie!" " I'm home." " In here!" "Where you been?" "I've been calling for two days." "You don't answer the phone?" "Connie, what the hell's goin' on here?" "Don't ask." "It's the washing machine again." "And while I was at it, I fixed the sink." "Jesus!" "Connie, why don't you ever call the repairman?" "You're livin' in the past, Stanley." "You find one." "Hey, look at this mess." "Buy me a new machine!" "But don't break my balls, Stanley." "Been trying to fix this thing for three hours, and I'm not in the mood." " I didn't say anything." " Yeah, but you were gonna." " I can always tell when you're in a mood." " What's wrong with you?" "I walk in the door, you don't even say hello." "You don't smile." "All you do is, you say, "Stanley, don't break my balls."" " What kind of a relationship is this?" " You don't care about our relationship." "I do care." "I do care about our relationship." " Come on!" " I just wanna know why you're so angry." "Well, Stanley, it's because you have become an arrogant, self-centred, condescending son of a bitch." " Well, there's a lot to be arrogant about." " Oh, don't start, OK?" "I'm not takin' any more of your shit, Stan." "You want to fix the fuckin' washing machine?" "You go ahead and fix it." "Oh, Jesus." "You fix it." "I gotta go to work." "Hey, I'm not having such a great day either, you know." "I thought you said you had the night off." "I thought maybe we could go out." "They shifted me back to nights." "What is biting your ass?" "Don't tell me it's the washing machine." "No." "Nothin'." "Because I don't expect anything from you any more, Stanley." " What is that supposed to mean?" " It means you bombed out." "You forgot." "You weren't here." "You missed target practice." " What?" " Wednesday." "Wednesday!" "It's the day of my ovulation." "I guess I forgot." "Don't bullshit me, Stan." "I don't like it." "I'm getting the picture, OK?" "It's clear as ice." " If you really wanted a kid..." " Of course I want a kid." "No." "No." "You'd take care of yourself a bit." "You'd sleep decent hours." "You'd eat regular." "You'd take your vitamins." "You promised me you'd take your vitamin E." "I paid 50 bucks for this." "And you'd screw me once in a while at the right time of month." " How the hell do we stand a chance?" " Hey, I'm sorry." "I know you're sorry." "You said that last month and the month before that." "I'll tell you what." "Next month we'll take a weekend off." "We'll go up to that place in the Poconos, that place your brother-in-law talks about." "You know, the place with the heart-shaped tubs?" "We could try there." "Don't give me all that." "Don't treat me like an idiot." "It doesn't work any more." "It doesn't work." "Shit!" "So sweet, your smile is so sweet" "Like a flower blossoming" "In the warm spring breeze" "Where was it" "Where was it that I had seen you before?" "Your smile is so familiar" "I can't remember" "In my dreams" "I didn't think you'd show up." "I guess I had to get a closer look at the jerk who insulted me." " What would you like to drink?" " Tea." " Why didn't you say who you were?" " Hostile, aren't you?" "I showed up, didn't I?" "Why don't you have some spareribs?" "They have great spareribs, but lousy lighting." "Ever wonder about that?" "Why a Chinese restaurant makes you feel like you're inside a motor vehicle bureau?" " Feel like I'm waiting for an eye test." " Well, the atmosphere is not the thing." "Besides, I like Italian food better anyway." "I'm impressed." "Are you doing your homework?" "I'm scratching the surface." "So you're from Hong Kong?" "No." "American born." "San Francisco, the Bay area." "How many generations have your people been here?" "My great-grandfather came, worked in the railroads, went back." "My grandfather worked in a gold mine." "He also went back." "They went back because the law wouldn't allow their wives to come over." "My father married a Japanese woman and settled here in the '40s." "Yeah, I know the story." "It's a pretty sad one." "Thousands of you Chinese came over here, and you died building the railroads." "It says so here." "Their bones are scattered all over the West." "We don't even know their names." "There's a photograph here." "Promontory Point, Utah. 1869." "It's where the Union and Central Pacific first met." "Take a look at it." "What do you see?" "What do you see?" "You see the bosses." "You see the politicians." "You see the bankers." "You see the Irish workmen." "There's not one single, solitary Chinaman." "They weren't even asked to show up." "They died anonymous." "You goddamn people, you keep everything a secret." " I know the story, Captain." " Well, most people don't." "No one remembers in this country." " No one remembers anything." " You sound just like my father." "He sounds like a great guy." "What does he do?" "He's in shipping." "Now, what's your story?" "Me?" "What's there to say?" "Uh..." "I'm Polish." "I'm from Brooklyn." "I'm a cop." "But I happen to be the most decorated cop in the City of New York." "I'm talking action decorated, no desk citations here." " I'm sure about that." " I saw you a few times on the tube." "I don't watch much television, but I think you're pretty good." "You're sexier than the broads on the other channels." "Ah, well, Captain." "Very pleased you've come." " Hello." " Uncle Yung, you know Tracy Tzu?" "Oh, yes." "Very pleased you've come." "This is my wife Su Shin." "Captain, do you like Chinese champagne?" "This is very good." "This is on the house." "Thanks, Harry, but no thanks." "I pay my own way." " Fish stinks from the head, does it not?" " The Chinese eat the head, Captain." "Enjoy." "Let's go." "It looks like champagne..." " I think you upset him." " I certainly hope so." "I've been waiting for over a year" "Look at it this way." "Harry Yung, he's the head of the richest tong in Chinatown." "He's gotta be involved in the Chinese Mafia." "Even if he isn't doin' anything, he's gotta be doin' something." "And if I can nail the son of a bitch, and he's got face, I get face." "And if I get face, I can win the war in Chinatown." "Captain, why did you call me?" "What do you want?" "I'll tell you what I want." "I want the rice to boil over in Chinatown." "I wanna change things." "Why?" "Is Chinatown so bad the way it is?" "It stinks." "The Harry Yungs got this place locked up like a jail." "You got a slave population of sweatshop women working for 12 cents a piece." "You got shopkeepers paying bribes to every punk that comes along." "You got 30 people livin' in a room." "You got the highest rate of TB and mental illness in any city neighbourhood." " You got a male population..." " Look, I'm a reporter." "I am "not" a crusader." "You're an actress." "I can help you." " How?" " I'll give you hard facts off the record." "You do an exposé on Chinatown." "One week you do the gambling connection." "The next week you do the youth gang extortion racket." "You move up the ladder, to the bosses that own the places." "You splash their faces on the tube, take a little journalistic licence, you know?" "Each week we peel another layer off the onion." "If it was a white broad, they'd say it's racist, but with you, it's on the up and up." "This is outrageous." "There are boundaries, Captain White." "Ethics!" "The press is independent." "It's not just another undercover cop." "What you're asking for is absurd." "It's almost criminal." "You wouldn't know a real criminal if one popped out the toilet and bit your ass." "I don't think there's any point in going on with this." "You sit down, you get smart, and you listen to me." "Go fuck yourself." "Didn't see nothing, man." "Two men, ski masks, ran up the stairs." "Boom, boom." "Was all over." "It's all right." "It's all right." "It's all over now." "It's all right." "Stop crying." "Stop crying." "Now you see what I'm saying." "You've seen what happens." "Who did this?" "Why?" "Who were those kids?" "Could they have been with the Nam Soong?" "No." "No, it's not them." "It's someone from the inside." "It can't be the Nam Soong." "What would the Nam Soong gain by messing with us?" "Nothing." "They couldn't take over our place." "Recently there's the Double Flower business." "It's not the Double Flower, it's the other guy." "The other guy!" "Uncle Hung!" "All this is done by the Nam Soong gang." "Don't question it." "They came from Toronto." "How do you know?" "I saw them two days ago." "Now they've gone back." "We'll find them." " You take care of it, then." " Yes." "I'm going to ask you again." "Do Nam Soong have their reasons?" "It's because of the police, Uncle." "They want to get their hands on our goods, so they mess with us." "The guys in Hong Kong and Amsterdam know what Nam Soong is capable of." "We seem to be no match for him." "The shootout at the restaurant, other things..." "Everyone says they're trying to start a war." "But what I'm afraid of most is that they seem to be targeting you directly." "If we don't fight back, we'll lose everything." "What you're saying makes some sense." "In our business, we can't succeed unless the market is stable." "The market is very unstable." "The shootout was six months ago." "The restaurant has only made 70% of its usual profits since." "And the Italians are still angry at us about what happened with the candy store." "Fuck them!" "How long have they worked with us?" "And still they treat us like this!" "They call us "yellow niggers"." "Right?" "Our banking and shipping profits are all down." "Gold prices are slumping." "Our stocks are sluggish." "Our commodities position has slipped." "There's no new money coming in, gentlemen." "The Vietnamese will start competing with our gambling profits." "And this new policeman, making rude noises about Chinatown and justice, and all..." "I have much respect for each and every one of you, Uncles." "But I believe that right now we need a strong leader." "Speaking of me..." "OK, Joey." "I'll let you keep on talking." "You guys talk about it." "Joey, what you're saying about our business is true." "If we let you lead us, what will you do?" "First of all, when my uncle leaves his post, I will make him look good." "Right?" "Second of all, I will find out who did this to our restaurant." "I will have to go to Thailand and put up a good fight with Ban Sung for our goods." "Then there is the matter with the Italians." "It is perhaps time to consider ending the old arrangement with them." "Do like they do!" "Sell directly to the blacks and Puerto Ricans." "We can make more money that way." "Right, Uncle Bin, let's not waste time." "We'll just do it ourselves, right?" " Good morning." " Good morning, Chief." " Good morning." " Good morning, Frank." " Morning, Commissioner." " Morning, Commissioner." "Anything to tell me on the Wild West show at the Shanghai Palace last night?" "Yes, sir." "Our information is that it was an East Broadway gang." "We're checking on it." "I wouldn't bet on that information, sir." "You know something we don't know?" "No, sir." "It's just that our street information in Chinatown hasn't been right so far." "We're the last ones to know what's goin' on there." "The important thing is that both punks were hit, and it'll be hard for them to hide." "And if I can get to them, and I will, then I got one hand on their balls." "Captain White is speaking for himself, sir." "I don't care who he's speaking for." "I know this." "These punks are whacking out people left and right." "Tourists!" "I just got my ass chewed out by the mayor, who is mighty pissed off." "And so am I. What the hell has happened to Chinatown?" "It was never like this." "The causes of this run deep." "Be that as it may, I want this crap stopped, and I want it stopped now!" "Or heads are going to roll." "Am I making myself clear to you people?" "Yes, boss." "You want some fast results and no bullshit." "Let me have one Chinese undercover cop and I'll penetrate these fuckers." "What are you talking about?" "Have you asked your commanding officer?" "Yes, sir, and it was ignored." "As was my warning that the gutters were gonna run red with blood." "The request is under consideration, Commissioner." "This kid he wants is a trainee." " He's already got six Chinese cops." " I got six too many." "I got six Chinese cops down there no one talks to." "They treat 'em like lepers." "This kid, Herbert Kwong, he's from China, and no one knows him down there." "And he don't know shit from Shinola." "He needs another 100 hours minimum." "We don't have another 100 hours." "Give him what he wants." "Now." "And get some results." "That's it." "Nobody does what you did in here." "Nobody." " Are you sure about this?" " Yeah." "All you guys do is eat and gamble." " I told you to keep this place clean." " It is." "It smells like a sewer." "So what?" " Where's the doctor?" " Inside." " Those two are OK now?" " You gave them the shots?" "Get up." " Hey, little brother, how are you doing?" " I'm OK." " Does your foot hurt very much?" " It's all right." " You got a shot, didn't you?" " Yes." " How's your brother's foot?" " Hey, get up." "Tai is here." " Hey, how's your foot?" " It's OK." " Can you walk?" " Yes." " Give it a try." " It's OK." "Good boy, you've got balls." "Both of you, get some rest." " I'm gonna take off." " Thank you." "Take care." "How long before the wounds heal?" "Two weeks, maybe less." "But the one with the toes..." "Thank you." "Take care of this now." "Clean this place up." "All of you, clean this place up!" "It stinks in here." "See you." " How'd you get called Herbert?" " My Chinese name is too complicated." "I looked in the phone book." "I found Herbert." "Do you know anything about Go Joey Tai?" "Harry Yung?" "Fred Hung?" " Uncle Milton Bin?" " No, sir." "You're going to." "Because you're gonna put 'em to sleep at night, you're gonna wake 'em up." "I wanna know where they go, who they see." "When you're not doing that, you're gonna monitor a wiretap on them." "Watch it, will you?" "You drive worse than you shoot!" " Stay out of the left lane." " Yes, sir." "Uh, what hours am I working?" "Hours?" "Forget it." "You're on 24 hours a day, seven days a week." " What about sleep?" " Forget sleep." " But I got a second job." " Hey, Herbert, quit." "I'm serious." " You want to be a cop or to fuck around?" " What's the point of the exercise?" "It's not an exercise." "We're dealing with the Chinese Mafia." "They eat people like you for breakfast." "Jesus!" "I told you, stay out of the left lane." "Did you ever notice this?" "Chinese guys are always blocking' traffic." "They drive like their music, from right to left." "Did you ever see a Chinese Grand Prix driver?" "Huh?" " No." " Goddamn cab can't drive." "Come on!" "Central to 27 Adam Boy." "Got two male Asians shot dead at 6 Eldridge." "They match the suspects in the Shanghai Palace shooting." "That's us." "You're out." "Outta the car." "You're undercover now." "Get out!" "Where's White?" "Alan Perez, Captain." "Nobody, of course, saw nothing." "Most of these people are illegal." "They're sweating a bust." "The building and the farm are registered to Tan Wan Lo." "He lives in Hong Kong." "We're checking it out, but he's probably been dead for ten years." "Building ownership down here makes a Chinese fire drill look organised." " Where are they?" " Tony, get out here!" "This is the guy that tipped us." "Calls himself Tony." "Says he's been working here 40 years." "You wanna show the Captain what you showed me?" "Come on!" "You people!" "You can take off your shoes." "Right here." "Go look." "Get a flashlight." "You're a good man, Tony." "Not too many of you left." "I know." "You don't have to tell me." "I know!" "All good men gone - long time." "Everything change." "Young people, no respect." "Steal, shoot, kill." "Like white man." "Chinese man is not afraid to work hard." "I work 40 years here." "I put every dollar in Chase Manhattan Bank." "Young people have no respect no more." "Old men afraid." "Not me." "Not me." "I been here long time." "I have seen many things." "I see things lot of people don't even think I see." "Tony, there should be more men like you." "Bullshit!" "I have no money and no husband." "All I want is to find her a college." "But I can't find work, so I can't support her education." "I understand your situation." "You don't have to worry any more." "I have talked to Tina about this fall..." "Please forgive me." "I had no one else to turn to." "I understand." "Don't worry any more." "I've arranged for Tina to attend Columbia this fall." "Stop worrying, OK?" "Thank you." "Tina, it was difficult for your mother to come to me." "You must show your appreciation by studying hard." "Then you can help your mother out so she won't have to work so hard." "You hear me?" "...some say an act of revenge linked to the restaurant massacre, but no one knows." "And in this once quiet, tourist-oriented community, the tourists are beginning to stay away." "And the people here are beginning to ask the dismaying question:" ""What is happening to Chinatown?"" "This is Tracy Tzu, Eldridge Street, Chinatown." "Here he is." "Captain White?" "Captain White, can you give us any idea who and what's behind this violence?" "Who?" "What?" "A thousand years of civilisation." "That's who, that's what." "You oughta know that." "Now get that goddamn thing outta my face." " What's the matter?" " You don't know, you don't know." "You're acting like there's something between us." "Auntie, stop worrying." "I have to go." "Have something to eat." "Don't worry any more." "Mr White!" "I'm glad you came." "Joey, congratulations." "I hear Harry Yung's out and you're in." " Stuart, all right?" " Meet my favourite lady." "Connie, this is Joey Tai." "He owns the place." "My wife." " It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs White." " Hi." "How are you?" "I'm sorry I'm late." "Somethin' came up." "Why don't we order some spareribs..." "I told you." "I got a late shift tonight." " We can talk after dinner." " No, it might disturb my digestion." "You really are something." "Hurry up!" "Just come over here." "Let's call it a truce." " How about good champagne, Joey?" " Sure." "Mrs White?" "Come this way." "Harvey, get me the best champagne in the house." "You have an eye for beauty, Captain." "Yeah." "She's a real rock." "She's the best." "You must have heard, we dug up those two midgets that hit Harry's place." " Found 'em in a soybean basement." " No, I didn't." "My guess is somebody didn't want us to find 'em." "You don't think it was the friends of the boy who was killed?" "If you accept the surface of things, Joey." "Which most people do." "Why the bodyguard?" "Does it come with the new title, or what?" "Just a precaution." "There's been too much violence..." "I agree." "What are you and I gonna do about it?" "How's it going?" "Are you enticing those to be conquered in coming to the conqueror?" "You should try our exploding lobster." "My chef does it better than anybody in the world." "I brought him from..." "Hey, what do you want, Joey?" "Spit it out." "Cigarette?" "No." "This is not the Bronx or Brooklyn." "It's not even New York." "It's Chinatown, White." "It can be very easy, or it can be very hard." "Well, why don't you make it easy?" "I'll help you get some of these renegade youths." "Witnesses, evidence, everything you need." "You'll get headlines, your superiors will relax, and everybody happy." "And then you can stay in Chinatown, no transfer, and we can do business." "You understand what I am saying to you, Mr White?" "Yeah." "I get the punks." "What do you want in return?" "Nothing." "Just work with us." "Chinese people come here to prosper and not to change things." "You know, this cross-eyed conversation we're having, Joey, gets me confused." "See, I'm a stupid Polack." "A peasant." " You gotta make things real clear to me." " Sure." "How clear do I make it?" "Oh, I don't know." "I'm thinking." "Would a contract with us for security work after you retire be what you need?" "We got some late-night clubs you could keep an eye on." "Could mean 100,000 a year." "And we could put it anywhere in the world." "I don't think 100,000's gonna be enough." "OK." "How much, then?" "I'll take the same amount that you'll make off your next 50 keys of heroin." "At last." "The clouds part to show the true sky." "You know, most drug dealers are morons, Joey, but I gotta hand it to you, you're one silky son of a bitch." "This the way you deal with the Italians?" "This the way you moved out Harry Yung?" "How about your father-in-law, Jackie Wong?" "You know, rumour has it it was your hand that was on the knife that killed him." "You're a smart guy, Go Joey, but you made one mistake." "I'm not Italian." "I'm a Polack." "And I can't be bought." "I'm gonna burn you down." "I'm gonna drag you... and your dirty laundry out on the street." "And I'm gonna humiliate you." "You are very stupid." "And you're not gonna last." "I'll last long enough to piss on your grave." "Connie, what's wrong with you?" "!" "I was only 20 minutes late!" "What's the matter with you?" "Hey, you're right." "I thought it over." "I tried very hard to suppress it, but I think there's definitely something between us." " Get in the car." "I'll drive you home." " I'm not some gook hooker in Saigon." " Does that work with all the girls?" " "Comme ci, comme ça."" "Why don't you give me a break?" "It's not every day I get to meet a famous person." "Listen, I got a legitimate story for you." "Want some wine?" "White or red?" "Both." "Wow, this is some place." "Hey, listen, forget what I said in the restaurant." "I know you got your ethics." "I respect that." "But listen, you know, you got a great human interest story in Joey Tai." "Kid from the slums of Kowloon comes over here." "Works his way up." "Marries the boss's daughter." "Maybe knocks off the boss." "Becomes the boss." "I mean, that's the American dream." "Why don't you shine a light on the son of a bitch?" "What if he's involved in nothing?" "What if he's just a successful businessman, like my father?" "The Chinese are always involved in something, never involved in nothing." "Remember that." "You're really cracked, you know that?" "The first time I saw you, I knew you were cracked." "And a racist, too." "Were you in Vietnam?" " Yeah." "Why?" " I knew it." "It ruined you." "First time I saw you, I hated your guts." "I think I even hated you before I ever met you." "I hated you on TV." "I hated you in Vietnam." "You wanna know what's destroying this country?" "It's not booze." "It's not drugs." "It's TV." "It's media." "It's people like you." "Vampires." "I hate the way that you make your living, sticking microphones in people's faces." "I hate the way you lie every night at six o'clock." "I hate the way you kill real feelings." "I hate everything that you stand for." "Most of all, I hate rich kids." "And I hate this place." "So why do I wanna fuck you so bad?" "Maybe you're right." "Maybe I got no ethics." "I can't." "Stop it." "You can't?" "I just spent all afternoon here, making love with my boyfriend." "I can't." "So why'd you invite me here?" "What year are you living in?" "We're not in the back seat of some car at a drive-in." "You don't have to get your money's worth." "Well, so who is he?" "What's his name?" "What, is he rich?" "You wanna know if he's Chinese, right?" "That's what you wanna know, so ask it." "That's the question." "Why don't you answer it?" "He's white, all right?" "He went to Princeton." "His name's Roger." "And he's a lawyer." "Well, I hate lawyers." "And I wouldn't wanna make love to a woman who just screwed a lawyer." " What's he got, money?" " Yes." " Roger Pumpernickel the Third?" " And he's not a crackpot racist." " He's a gentleman." " Oh, yeah?" "What does he do?" "He plays tennis and golf and goes out sailing on a yacht?" "What's with all these machines?" "What are you, at ATT?" "You got everybody in town jumping in and out of your bed?" "You're acting like a child." "Well, "A great man is one who in manhood still keeps the heart of a child."" "Why don't you go home?" "I can see this was a big mistake." "Yeah, it was a mistake." "It was a giant mistake." "It was a giant mistake." "I'm gonna go home to a woman who at least acts like a woman." "If this Roger's so great, how come he didn't marry you?" "He didn't want a slant-eyed Roger the Fourth?" "I don't know." "We've never discussed it." "We just meet here to fuck." "I want to arrest the gang members for loitering, spitting in the gutter, anything." " What about their civil rights?" " Fuck their civil rights!" "I want the honchos around here to go apeshit." "I want to disrupt the entire commerce of Chinatown." "Do you understand me?" "I want chaos." "You know, you people, you're starting to look like the Chicago Cubs." "I'm not kidding." "You look like you already lost." "The world has fucked you over, so now you don't give a shit." "I know." "I've been there." "I've been in the job 15 years." "I know all the stories." "My heart has been broken 100 times." "I've got scar tissue on my soul." "But let me tell you something." "I give a shit." "I'm gonna make you people give a shit." "I don't care what you think of me." "You guys are gonna go through the numbers on this one." "Now that's it." "Get outta here." "Whoa!" "One last thing." "The next cop... that I hear about... who's taking money... in this precinct," "I'm gonna personally bust their mouth." "Are there any questions?" "What if it's a woman?" "She better bend over." "Whoo!" "Mr Wong, do you think Joey Tai is responsible for the death of your father?" "I want my lawyer!" "Captain Stanley White, commander of the Fifth Precinct, has declared war on Chinatown." "Today there were 43 gang arrests, three gambling parlours raided, six sweatshops busted." "In an opening blow at the man they call the godfather of Chinatown, Joey Tai," "White has padlocked his restaurant on a health violation." "A crackdown is in the works." "Although District Attorney Jane Katzman denies it, a major drug conspiracy case is rumoured to be pending against various respected older members of the Chinatown ruling elite." "Mr Tai, can you tell us if there is such a thing as the Chinese Mafia?" "Sounds very exciting, like a comic book." "The existence of Triads is documented by the Drug Enforcement Agency." "Documentation without proof." "This farce is evidence of the consistent discrimination against Chinese." "Mr Tai, are you saying there is no criminal element in all of Chinatown?" "Of course not." "But why do you media people insist on emphasising this Charlie Chan image?" "Why not talk about the chair in Chinese History our association has endowed at Yale University?" "Or our $12 million fund for our 10,000 members?" "Our free meals for the aged and the unemployed?" "Free burial, things like that?" "Positive things." "Mr Tai, what is your comment on Jackie Wong?" "Do you have any comment?" "I'm really happy you're OK." "My doctor would kill me if he knew I was here." "They just took my voice box out." "They keep taking things out." "I have nothing left, Fred, but my brain." "My brain says I'd rather do business with a smart thief than an honest man who is stupid." "A stupid man is dangerous." "Like a defective time bomb, you never know when it's gonna go off on you." "But a thief, you can control what he steals." "I think, Teddy, you are going to find Joey a very smart young man." "Not cautious, as Jackie or Harry, but aggressive." "He wants power." "All young men want power." "That's what it means to be young, Fred." "I wanna see his face, his eyes." "I wanna know if he's reckless." "One look in his eyes, I will know." "Bring him in, but leave the nigger outside." " "My esteemed friends..."" " How's the sound?" "A little background noise, but it's not bad." "The point, Mr Tedesco, is that we are happy to let you continue the distribution of our software." "But, with a 50 per cent reduction in volume, and at a reduced fee." "Something like 17 or 18 per cent." "The rest stays with us till we weigh other offers." "Jackie Wong made these arrangements with me." "We were pioneers when you were sucking your mother's tit, and I don't see why anything should change now." "Because Jackie Wong is dead, and Harry Yung has stepped down, and I am the Cho Kun now." "Hey, Joey." "And I say we can't afford to sell to old men the old way." "You know, Fred, in all my years, nobody - and I mean nobody - has ever talked to me like that." "Nobody." "No insult was intended, Mr Tedesco." "But you people don't control Canal Street any more." "We do." "I think when you think through my offer to you, you'll see that it's not unprofitable to both sides." "Who you gonna sell to?" "The niggers?" "The spics?" "You people don't have that kinda weight here." "They will bury you so fast like you never was here." "And if they don't, I will." "Don't talk like that!" "Don't sweat it." "You're flying too high, kid, and the air is very thin up there." "Hello?" "Yes, it's Joey." "I'm trying to reach Ban Sung." "Next week." "I know." "Stop talking and listen to me!" " Got anything?" " It seems to be mostly financial talk." "There's mention of some problem in Thailand." "A man in Bangkok is saying something about..." "I'm not quite sure about what." "I want to talk to him in person." "But he's very angry about a group from Toronto that calls itself the Nam Soong." "Sister, you gotta be more precise." "That's going to be very difficult, Captain." "It's been many years since we've heard the Hakka dialect spoken." "They're talking "around" things, not "about" them." "Damn it, Sister, that's the point!" "They're not gonna spell it out for you." "This is drug talk." "You got to use your imagination." "Listen... you look like you don't eat enough to keep a bird alive." "Have some real food." "Captain White, I've managed to live 75 years without your help, eating precisely what I'm eating now." "My body fat is 12 per cent." "My blood pressure's 120 over 80." "My lymphocyte count is 22 per cent." "And if you want to compare white blood cells and red blood cells," "I might even outlast you, Captain, red-meat eater that you obviously are." "Copy that." "The perpetrator is saying he's flying into Bangkok, next week " "under another name." "He's making his move." "I want you to get the DEA on his tail." "Call the Bangkok police, whatever you gotta do to eyeball this scumbag." "I'm sorry, Sister." "I just wish to fuck I could go there myself." "Come on." "That'll be the day, the NYPD springing' for a ticket to Hong Kong, eh?" "You guys are doing a great job." "Keep it up." "Rizzo, come on." "I want you to hit Chinatown like Genghis Khan." "I want restaurant health violations." "I want immigration busts, gambling raids." "You were meant to shake up the gang kids, not turn the whole city upside down." "Let me make this real clear to you, White, here and now." "Joey Tai goes to the Manhattan Borough president, who he contributes $100,000 a year to, all right?" "The borough president goes to the mayor." "The mayor goes to me." "And the word is, lay off." "That is the way the game is played, OK?" "No more wiretaps on Joey Tai." "And you don't go to the Drug Enforcement Agency." "Going to outside agencies isn't your job." "It is Lou's job." "And what about the dead tourists, Commissioner, huh?" "I guess they don't add up to a can of sardines, do they?" "You change your tune pretty fast just cos that slimebag has tea with the mayor." "You can't link Joey Tai to that." "You know it." "The point is that you cease and desist." "What if I don't, huh?" "What are you gonna do?" "You gonna suspend me?" "What will that look like in the papers?" "You tell me." "You suspend the most decorated cop in the city." "You call off an investigation into the Chinese Mafia." "What investigation?" "What Chinese Mafia?" "The investigation's in your mind." "What's it gonna look like?" "You tell me." "Your department's gonna look like shit, that's what." " Are you blackmailing me?" " Call it what you want." "I've been swallowing the bullshit around here for 10 years, and I'm choking on it." " You ever think about your pension?" " Fuck that!" "That's what's wrong with this department." "Everybody's so worried about their pension." " Stanley..." " Oh." "Never have I ever heard anything like this." "This is a fucking disgrace!" "No, Lou." "This is a fuckin' war, and I'm not gonna lose it." "Not this one." "Not over politics." "It's always fuckin' politics!" "This is Vietnam all over again." "Nobody wants to win this thing, do you?" "Just flat out win, do they, Lou?" "You go to the press again, White, you know what you're doin'?" "You're putting a gun to my head, Stanley." "That's what we are." "We're four guys in a room with guns to our heads." "Kearney, will you step outside for a minute?" "I can't listen to this crap no more, Stanley." "I can't watch a good man piss his career down the drain like this." "You never had any respect for anything, did you?" " First, you throw away your wife." " Shut up!" "Now, you're turning on us cos you got delusions of grandeur, sucking up to this Chink reporter to get your face on the tube." "What is it with you?" " She do it sideways or something?" " Take it back, Lou." "Don't tell me to take it back." "You got no shame." "Connie was the best thing you ever had in your life." "That wasn't between cops." "It was between two guys from the old neighbourhood." "Lou, I'm sorry." "Look..." "I don't know why we're fighting." "I love you." "I love Connie." "But when things aren't working at home, you overreact to things on the street." "We all had flings when we were young." "I'm not a prude." "Why don't you at least sit down with Connie and try to straighten this out?" "Even if you walk away, you walk away friends." "Cos no one's gonna care when you're lyin' in your grave but Connie and me." "Well?" "What are you gonna do, Stanley?" "I don't know." "All I know is that when I give up... the system gives up." "Tracy!" " Tracy!" " I'm coming!" "Tracy!" "Come on, open the door!" "Hey!" " Oh." " Who do you think you are?" "And what are you doing with that?" "These are my Chinese books." "I'm movin' in." "You what?" "Did I misinterpret what you were saying when I was lying on top of you?" "Fuck you!" "You Chinese, why don't you ever say what you really think?" " I'm going to call Roger." " I got somethin' I wanna say to him, too." "Go away, will you, Stanley?" "You're cracked." "You're really crazy." "Do you ever listen to yourself?" "Come on, tell me..." "Ow!" "Tell me the truth." "There is no Roger, is there?" "Know how I know?" "It's because when you talk about him, your eyes, they're not real." "There is a Roger." "Well, tell me what you see in this guy." "Come on, tell me." "I wanna know." "I want you to look me in the eyes, and I want you to say it." "What do I have to do to get you out of here?" "Holy God!" "Nothin'." "It's hopeless." "Surrender." "Why am I laughing?" "I'm becoming a crazy, like you." "Oh..." "I'm tired." "I think I need to sleep." "Maybe everybody's right." "I'm chasing something that doesn't exist." "I ought to stop." "Jesus, I'm tired." "It's the same thing as in 'Nam." "We lost because you were smarter than us." "And you couldn't even have a decent parade." "A fuckin' Chinese parade." "They come at you in 15 different directions." "Fuckin' joke." "Stanley... you can't stay here." "Don't you have a friend I could call?" "Or somebody you could stay with tonight?" "You're the only friend I have left." "I just wanna be with somebody tonight." "I just..." "I don't know anybody else." "Isn't that a real laugh?" "I don't know anybody." "I feel like such an asshole." "Tracy, I, uh..." "I love you." "Did you hear what I said?" "I thought there was no Chinese word for love." "I'm serious." "I know you are." "It was bad enough doing business with the old general, that slime, but Ban Sung's even worse." "But you lose all face by dealing with him direct." " Ban Sung has an ego like an octopus." " I know." "And I don't trust his agent here." "That fuck White Powder Ma knows Ban Sung's got a crop of 150 to 200 tons." "Ma offered him 6,000 a key, plus a shipment of kalashnikov assault rifles." "Hey." "Hey, brother Ma!" "Hello!" " I'm so happy to see you." " Have a seat." "I'm so glad." "We meet at last, huh?" "Little brother, I was very sorry to hear that your father-in-law had been killed." "You know, it's not as easy for us to do business without his guidance." "We in the Nam Soong have been wondering who could have done this." "We think that whoever is responsible for assassinating him is no better than a crow that flies up the ass of a dead animal to reach the gut without work." "It's so dirty, so despicable." "There's also some news." "I hear that this guy has been causing trouble in Toronto." " Really?" " It's intolerable." "But don't worry, I'm not going to let a crow bother me." "Brother Ma, you have really enlightened me." "I think we should share our information." "If we work together, we will surely catch this stinking crow." "We'll tear off his wings and cut off his tail." "I'm leaving in the morning." "It would give me great pleasure to invite you to dinner tonight." "It would be great if you could come." " Will you?" " OK." " I will be there." " That's wonderful." "All right, then." " I will see you tonight." " See you tonight." "Thanks, bye." "Will you open the door?" "Will you open the door?" "What do I gotta do, break it down?" "We gotta clear the air between us." "We gotta talk it out." "So talk." "I don't know what got into me with this Chinese girl." "I care more about you than anybody in the world." "I mean, if you don't know that, Connie, then..." "So what do you want me to say?" "Do you want me to forgive you, Stanley?" "Is that what you want?" "The truth is, I don't know what I want." "You wanna marry her?" "You wanna have babies with her?" "Look, I didn't plan for things to happen this way." "It just happened." "How do you think that makes me feel?" "It makes me feel pretty low, Stanley." "I feel pretty low myself." "It's about time." "You used me up, Stanley, and then you burned me down." "And I was a rock." "I carried the cross with you in Brooklyn and in Queens." "I lived in a fuckin' war zone with you." "Now, you're gonna go off and have babies with a woman ten years younger than me." "I don't have any pity for you, Stanley." "I... hope you feel bad." "Look, why don't we just let things ride for a while?" "Just let some time pass?" " I don't have any time." " I just need some time to think." "I'm outta time." "I'm 35, sliding into 40." "So what do you want me to do?" "You want me to just walk away, just like that?" " Is that what you want?" " It's over, Stanley." "Don't you get it?" "We're not playing from the same sheet music any more." "Now, will you get out of here..." "before I start to cry?" "And I don't wanna do that." "Not in front of you." "I got my pride." "You OK?" "I'm washing my face." "Look, Connie..." "I'd feel a whole lot better if you'd just keep the house and the bank accounts." "I mean, whatever's mine is yours." "I don't want the house anyway." "Stanley?" " Stanley!" "What the hell's goin' on?" " They got Connie!" "Stanley!" "What, are you crazy?" "!" "Stanley!" "Stanley, get outta there!" "Stanley!" "Get outta here!" " What, are you crazy?" "!" " He's evidence." "He's dead!" "Long time no see, Joey Tai." "It's an honour and a pleasure to see you again, General." "Time looks like it's been good to you." "And to you, too, honourable cousin." "The last time, as I remember, both of us were taking orders." "Now we give them." "How is the health of our old friend, the great Sao Mong Khawn, who paved the golden road of our success together?" "Truly, he is one of the great ones." "He'll be happy to see you, Go Joey." "I think so." "Come." "I think we'll surprise him." "Perhaps the general doesn't recognise you." "The general likes heroin in his soup." "Keeps him happy." "Thank all gods, he feels no pain." "Come, Go Joey." "A kalashnikov!" "Best rifle ever made." "The Russians used to give them to us to fight the Burmese, but now it's harder to get." "They want dollars." "Everybody wants dollars." "One bullet, by the time it gets to me, costs me one American dollar." "Dollars are like small fish:" "Difficult to catch, but not to be thrown back, except as bait for something bigger." "I'll make it 4500 a kilo." "You give me 6500, and I'll refine it to number four right here myself." " No, no." " You'll have 200 keys in two weeks." "You know we can't control the quality unless we refine it to stage four ourselves." " We've always bought stage three." " You don't think my dragon pearl's good?" " I have the best chemists in the world." " Maybe." "Better than your people in Hong Kong." "But then we would be forced to unemploy our chemists." "Go Joey, I offer you the chance of putting your old friend out of his misery." "He was going to betray us to the Americans." "Hold him!" "Save me!" "Save me!" "No, don't!" "Don't shoot me!" "You don't have the bullet to spare." "Each bullet can kill one Burmese soldier." "Then you don't have to use a gun." "Don't do this to me!" "I'll buy him from you. $5,000." "Buy?" "US dollars, cash." "Now." " Why?" " Why not?" "If you think this shit-faced old worm is worth $5,000, you can have him." "Good!" "Let him go!" "The food was great, and your hospitality has left an impression, General." "But time is short." "I must be in Hong Kong before the banks close on Friday." "My final offer." "I'll make it 4900 a key for your number three dragon pearl." "I'll take 200 kilos, deliverable in Bangkok early next week." "Another 800 kilos for the next three months." "Beyond that, I won't go." "White Powder Ma's offer makes yours insignificant." "Piss on him!" "Nam Soong Triad is like dog shit littering the streets." "They'll be extinct in two years." "I think perhaps I put my money on White Powder Ma." "I think so." "I think White Powder Ma will be pleased to hear this." "Tell him yourself." "My gift to Ban Sung, in honour of our association." "Let no motherless fuck ever raise his head again between us." "I'm sorry, Stanley." "She looks beautiful, Stanley." "Let me through!" "Let me through!" "Let me through!" "My deepest condolences to you, Mr White." "She said it wasn't that Chinese girl." "Connie was a bigger person than that." "She knew what was gonna happen." "You should have listened to her." " You talked to Connie behind my back?" " Yes." "I talked to Connie behind your back." "I knew Connie even longer than you." "Why shouldn't I talk to her if I want to?" "You and I don't agree on anything." "That's your problem." "You're fighting the whole world." "I'm sick and tired of Vietnam as an excuse for everything you guys do." "You act like everybody in World War II and Korea came home to a picnic." "It wasn't." "We lost 50,000 men in Korea." "We came back and nobody gave a shit." "But we fitted in." "Why can't you fit in?" "What is it that's so different?" "I don't know what you're talking about any more." "You know!" "I know you're not one of them professional Vietnam veterans who make a career outta groaning about the war." "You made something of yourself." "But you're still acting like you're on a crusade." "You think you got the right to trample over anything and everything." "We got an arrangement, a treaty with these Chinese." "And however tarnished it is, it works." "Life is arrangement, Stanley." "Life is getting along." "That's why this neighbourhood is what it is." "That's why eight million people every day in this city can function." "I don't want to argue with you any more." "Honest, I don't." "Take it easy." "You need anything, you call me." "You hear?" " There's always a bed at my place." " Your arrangement is what killed Connie." " Mr Tai?" " Mr Tai?" "Mr Tai, people in Chinatown are saying Ronnie Chang was your protégé, and his involvement in the murder of Mrs White implicates you." " Do you have any comment?" " That was a terrible tragedy, but I hardly knew Ronnie Chang." "Ronnie Chang represents much of what is bad in Chinatown." "We are trying hard to get rid of this element." "My sources say you have returned from Bangkok." "Was there a business purpose?" "I have interests there." "I import foods from the Far East." "I also have a company that distributes films in Thailand." "Why do you ask?" "Would this business take you into the jungle 500 miles north of Bangkok, to meet with a reputed drug lord by the name of Ban Sung?" "Do you know there are ethical boundaries, Miss Tzu, even for the press?" "Then does the name White Powder Ma ring a bell?" "Cut it." "I know your sources, and I'll raise the issue with your legal department." "Hey, I don't give a shit!" "I got the new lady district attorney behind me on this now." "You think the NYPD is gonna lift a finger for me?" "No." "No, I'm not gonna tell you where I am." "Look, I'm gonna make this case with the DEA, Customs, Immigration, if I have to." "It's Internal Affairs sniffing around again." "I bet you it's that fuck Kearney." "Get me Scappy Peck on the line at Customs." "He owes me a few favours." "What'd that son of a bitch say about White Powder Ma?" "What is all this?" "!" "What's happened?" "I couldn't work in my office - the walls have ears." "I let you use this place, but this is ridiculous!" "Get off the phone." "And get these people out of here." "Right now!" " Scappy Peck's on the line." " No!" "No more calls." "Look at this place!" "I give you an inch and you take a mile!" "I want these people out of here right now." "I mean it." "Look, I don't have time to write you thank you notes." "I'm going for Joey Tai's throat, and nobody's gonna stop me." "So just don't break my balls, all right?" "Just hang in there a while, and you'll be famous." "That's what you want, isn't it?" "You ungrateful, overbearing, self-centred son of a bitch!" " Don't tell me what I want." " That's it." "Let's hear it. "Ignorant Polack."" "Everybody, get out!" "Sit down."" "What's so funny?" "You drive everybody crazy, not just me." "She's an aristocrat." "You can't push her around." " That's an aristocrat?" " She's Mandarin." "They're like that." "Call Wainright back." "This is bullshit." "We're not gettin' anywhere." "That dope is somewhere between here and Thailand." "It's on the move." "We gotta get a tap into Joey Tai's office in the restaurant." "You must be kidding me." "A white face would never get in there." " Impossible." " Come on." "You could get in there as a bus boy or somethin'." "After that... plenty of time off for sleep, promotion." " No way, Captain." " A tough kid from Kwangtung?" "A kid whose ancestors used to hang in baskets in the Sierras, poking dynamite sticks in cliff faces?" "All I'm asking you to do is be a fly on the wall." "Your ancestors are rolling in their graves." "Goddamn bullshit, Captain!" "You're pushing too much." "I'm no slave." "I gave up my security job." "I gave up my chauffeur job." "I send less money home." "I'm tired all the time." "I don't eat right." "I'm getting sick." "I die, I'm fucked!" "My family's fucked!" " For what?" " What do you mean?" "You don't care nothing for people." "You make us all die for you." "Let me tell you something." "When your ancestors lived in caves and scrabbled for coal in Poland, the Chinese were sailing their ships across the Pacific." " What do you know about my ancestors?" " What do you know about mine?" "We were traders, shipbuilders, explorers." "We taught you agriculture." "We gave you oranges, grapes, your irrigation system." "We dug your gold and silver, Stanley." "We taught you how to fish the Pacific." "And still we were barred from American citizenship until 1943." "We worked so hard to build your railroads that when our opium didn't come on time, we were so desperate, we helped each other kill ourselves!" "But I'm not going to kill myself for you, Captain White." "No more "Chinaman Joe"." "Those days are over." "He'll be back." "He loves me." "Look, Stan, the kid's pushing it to the limit." "I don't know, maybe we should take him off the case." "No undercover has lasted more than a month in Chinatown." "Let me tell you something." "That kid is tough as nails." "And I'm going to make it up to him." "It's none of your business." "You have to remember to call." "Why don't you call now?" "Pick it up." "Shh." "This piece of news is not good." "It puts us in a very bad place." "What's going to happen next?" "Will our faces appear in the newspapers?" "How this reporter found out about your trip to Thailand is a serious problem." "It worries me very much!" "It makes the Nam Soong very upset about White Powder Ma." "Very unhappy." "And also our old friends the Italians are very angry." "Say something!" "Now you know what you've got yourself into." "You have some nerve, trying to kill the cop on your own and not succeeding!" "Are you thinking with your ass or your brain?" "Our nephew has overemphasised the Thailand end of the business, at the risk of endangering our other enterprises!" "How can you get rewards without taking risks?" " All you're doing is yelling at me." " Bastard!" "Watch what you're saying." "Uncle, listen to me." "These guys in Toronto are not a problem." " Not a problem!" " They will be easy to take care of." "The Italians are a separate issue." "They'll want to work with us again once we make a move." "What they're saying in the papers, let them." "Who cares?" "And like a fly's bite on an elephant's ass, ignore it." " I'll take care of it." " You can take care of everything." "Uncle, the new shipment arrived in Bangkok on Tuesday, and it was in Amsterdam by Saturday." "I spoke to our chemist in Hong Kong." "He guarantees us one load every two weeks." "Uncle, think about it." "What my father-in-law did in a year, I did in three months." "Three months!" "Nonsense!" "When is it due in New York?" "Less than a week." "Our money is ready at the bank." "We can get it by next Monday." "How much faster do you want me to move?" "It's too dangerous to take a delivery now." " Can't wait a month?" " We can't wait!" "If you send it back to Harlem now, it will only increase the risk!" "You don't have to worry." "I have complete confidence in our couriers." "I trust them." "I'll take care of it." "Are we still working with Rising Sun Lines?" "No." "It's a new company." "Which new company?" "I think it's best not to tell you the name of the ship now." "It's too dangerous." "Excuse me." "I'll be right back." "Ah, shit!" "The goddamn name of the ship!" "White has a wire in your office." " Who?" " I don't know, but I'm gonna find out." "Perez!" "I don't want anything to go wrong with this shipment." "It's important." " Don't worry." " I want you at the pier." " All right." "Where?" " The "Kazimierz Pulaski."" "Polish." "It docks Tuesday." "Pier 11." " I'll be there." " Thanks." "OK, everybody back to work." "Stanley!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Herbert, you're gonna be all right." "I'm proud as hell of you." "Eleven." "What?" " The dock." " Get to Beekman, for Christ's sakes!" " What was the name of the ship?" " Dear God in heaven." "Kazimierz Pu..." "Pul..." "He's at the bar." "You and me are gonna have a talk about Herbert Kwong." "Get off me!" "Got you, you little fuckin'..." "I'm gonna kill you, you little cocksucking' bastard." "Fuckin'..." "Press charges!" "I'm beggin' ya." "Come on, Joey, call a cop." "Come on, let's go to court." " Come on, I'm beggin' you." " No more now, Stan." "Oh, shit!" "Get out!" "Get out!" "Get the fuck out!" "Come on!" "Let's go!" "Get your fuckin' ass in there." "Fucker!" "Bastard!" " You look like you're gonna die, beautiful." " Oh, yeah?" "Don't count on it." "You are." "You're not gonna make it." "Was it worth it?" "You got anything you wanna tell me before you go, sweetheart?" "Yeah." "Fuck you." "What happened, Captain?" " Got one in the chest." " Captain, what the hell happened?" "You run too fast." "So you fall down, see?" "Looking back on the days of Jackie Wong, things were so peaceful." "Now, in the interest of all Chinatown, our relationship with the press, with City Hall, especially with the Italians, has to return to the old ways." "Joey, he has a point there." "I think that Joey is young and inexperienced." "He has offended Harry." "This has caused Harry to colour the situation with personal animosity." "If it were up to me, I would take care of it right away." "Dealing with things this way will benefit no one." "In dealing with the white devils, we have always stuck together through thick and thin." "You don't trust me now." "No matter what, I guarantee that you won't lose anything." "I will be at the pier to pick up the goods." "Look, I'm talking about one ship outta Rotterdam." "The "Kazimierz Pulaski."" "What the hell's the problem?" "You know how big that ship is, Stanley?" "We can't go running around ripping' up floor plates, cutting' boilers open, poking' through 10,000 Edam cheeses, or drilling' in a shipment of Danish furniture on your say-so, Stanley." "It's a lot of money involved." "We got passengers." "We got waiting' time." "Besides, it's the flagship of a foreign government." "Hey, look, all I'm asking you to do is go through one ship." "I got a deathbed confession." "A cop died for this." "You're pissing against the wind, ace." "Get a live informant." " Are you OK?" " Yeah." " You shouldn't have come here." " Embarrassed your friends will see me?" "Tonight's the night." "Get your crew to pier 11." "We're gonna watch the rice boil over." " I have to talk to you." " What?" "What is it?" "What is it?" "Are you gonna weasel out on me?" "What?" "Spit it out!" "I can't go there." "I've been told not to do any more stories on this." " You've been told?" "By who?" " By the network, Stanley." "What?" "There's a war going on down in Chinatown and you're not gonna cover it?" "Look, I don't think this is the time or the place." "Why don't you tell me the time and a place, and we'll go there and discuss it?" "Would you quit?" "There's times you have to know when to quit." "Oh, yeah?" "Did Herbert quit?" "What's wrong with you?" "He's dead!" "Connie's dead!" "I'm putting my whole life on the line, and you're sitting here, acting like some phoney white-bread cunt!" "You're not even white." "You're Chinese." "Those are your people down there!" "I mean, are you a reporter?" "Are you a whore?" "What?" "You're a son of a bitch, Stanley." "The day you put your ass on the line, that's the day you'll be a real reporter." "My ass on the line?" "Goddamn you, Stanley!" "I was almost killed for you." "I was raped." "And I'm not gonna die for you." "I'm not gonna be pushed like Connie and Herbert." "They're dead..." "What do you mean, you were raped?" " You're like poison, Stanley." " Who did this to you?" " Who?" " Rape is rape." " Who?" "Who raped you?" " Three boys." " Who?" " Three boys." " Who raped you?" "!" " Three Chinese boys, Stanley." "He went too far this time, that fucking Joey." "It didn't happen to you!" "It happened to me!" "You don't give a shit about me, do you?" " I'm gonna kill him." " Leave, Stanley." "Go away and leave me alone." "You should take a look at yourself, Stanley." "You're selfish." "You're callous." "You're indifferent to suffering." "Your wife was right, and you still don't get the message." "How many more people are you gonna kill before you do?" " Tracy, I..." " No." "Just go away and leave me alone." "Don't say anything." "Just go away!" "Hello, Stanley." "You weren't in your office." "Hello, Lou." "Francis, I'm disappointed." "You didn't show for Connie's funeral." "You were warned about Joey Tai." "Clean your desk." "You're goin' back to Brooklyn." "You've been properly served." "I'm sorry." "You were told to lay off." "If you think that I'm gonna stand for that, you're wrong." "You don't like it, resign." "You're through anyway." "It's all over for you, White." "Your balls'll be cut off Friday!" "You're not cops, you're lies, both of you." " You don't bend, you break, Stanley." " Then I'll break." " You care too much, Stanley." " How can anybody care too much?" "Go on." "Go on." "What the...?" "Jesus!" "Get outta my sight!" "What is this?" " What do you want?" " Tell me where the heroin is on the ship, and you walk outta here with a head start." "You..." "Joey!" "Joey!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Give me your gun." "For pity's sake." "Please." "Tell me where it is!" "Mercedes." "Please." "There are those who liken Chinatown to a skating pond." "On the surface we see a picture-postcard landscape of snowflakes and skaters, but underneath, the cannibal fish, the gangs, the sharks, those who control the gangs, and the whales, the big bosses, all move in deadly swarms." "These bosses, some people are saying, are in an international crime network, with its headquarters in Hong Kong." "Everyone denies it." "But in the wake of the shootings of Joey Tai and Ronnie Chang, questions are mushrooming left and right." "Charges of illegal wiretapping have been levelled by HJ Yung, head of the Hun San association, resulting in the removal of Captain Stanley White." "One wonders if this is not a smoke screen to distract from the main issue, which is what part the Hun San plays in this Chinese opera." "Tracy Tzu, Chinatown." "OK, that's it." "Stanley!" "Stanley!" " Where's he going?" " He's a great cop, but he won't stop." " White!" "What the hell is goin' on?" " I'm arresting these people." "You wanna do something they'll remember in Chinatown?" "Book 'em!" "Be a cop again!" "Stanley!" "Stanley!" "Stanley!" "Oh, thank God!" "You know, you were right." "I was wrong." "Sorry." "I'd like to be a nice guy." "I would." "I just don't know how to be nice." "You're really cracked, you know that?" "Visiontext Subtitles:" "Adrian Isaac" "Subs converted and synched by ShooCat" "Thanks to Ercole for ripping them"

"Vera, I have something important to tell you." "Listen..." "What?" "Don't be angry..." "We enrolled Petar in the Communist Party." "A whore-house rather!" "He's one of us now." "Get inside!"

"Raiding my city!" "My own city!" "Where are you going, Blacky?" "To "greet" the fucking criminals who've come to destroy my city!" " I know where you're going!" " You do?" "I know!"

"God, it's impossible to have a serious talk with you!" "What are you saying?" "You get on my nerves!" "Here it is!" "I'm saying what the whole town is saying." "What is it, my love?" "You never leave that theatre!" "You're in that theatre every night." "I know, I love the theatre." "You love the theatre?" "You love the theatre!" "So?" "What's so strange about that?" "You love that whore, not the theatre!" "If you weren't pregnant..." "You'd what?" "You lying creep!" " Me?" " Yes, you!" "You, you scum!" "What is it?" "What?" "Shame on you, Vera!" "Blacky!"

"Golub, I won't leave the partisans to sort you all out." "There's no need." "You may not know this but he's not an electrical engineer at all." "No, he's a common electrician." "A pole-man!" "He spent his whole life on poles, with pliers and cutters." "I'm the one who got him down and asked him: "Comrade," ""will you join our side?" "Yes," he said." ""Will you obey the rules" ""and the orders?" "Yes."" "Until... he got rich!" "Natalija!" "An electrician?" "A pole-man!" "Natalija, you are our greatest actress and our suffering people need you." "And you need a reasonable, intelligent, educated man..." "An intellectual!" "You're right!" "Comrade Leka will bring you to the disciplinary committee." "We expected the guns a week ago."

"No." "But this film is based on your memoirs and she is our greatest actress!" "Exactly." "The film is dedicated to the Revolution, not to us." "Will you at least visit the set?" "We'd be honoured." "That we will do." "Comrades... it is my honour to inaugurate this Cultural Centre as well as unveil the statue of our Hero, Petar Popara Blacky." "Blacky symbolizes our anti-fascist struggle!"

"Unbelievable!" "It's all just like that night..." "When you killed 11 Germans, dived into the river..." " What a memory!" "...and saved Blacky and Natalija." "Indeed!" "Excuse me, please." "Blacky!" "My friend!" "God, Blacky..." "Why did they kill you, my friend?" "Why did they kill you?" "Can someone protect the actors in this film?" "I've been burnt three times already!" "Three times!" "Comrade Marko, it will be a great film!" "Are you afraid of God?" "You mean, are we afraid of God?" "You'd better learn that text as it's written." "Word by word." "Understand?" "Sleep tight." "What is this?" "What you'll tell him in the cellar." "This?" "You know, trash like this, whoever the writer or the director may be, is still trash." "If they ask me what I think, here's what I think!" "You're a poet, Marko!" "Stick to poems!" "Natalija, what's missing?" "What's missing?" "The truth!" "The truth?" "Yes, darling!" "You know, the truth..." "No text, my dear, has any truth in it." "The truth exists only in real life." "You are the truth!" "You!" "You are supposed to be the truth." "There is no truth, only your conviction that what you act is the truth." "No, art is a lie, a big lie!" "We are all liars, a little bit at least." "You scum!" "They raped me, beat me..." "What else did they do to me?" "What?" "Does it really matter if those people in the cellar stay alive?" "Yes it does, my dear." "You write heroic roles for yourself and I get to play the whore." "Anyone can fuck your wife!" "Get dressed and put the make-up on." "I said I'd rescue you in time for the wedding." "Come on, please." "Please, get dressed and put your make-up on." "I said no." "I said no!" "I can't act a part I don't believe in." "Look what they did to her!" "Fucking fascist motherfuckers!" "I love you!" "Hear that?" "She said she loved me..." "What?" "Did you hear that?" "And you?" "She said she loved me." "He's just like me!" "Dear friends, welcome to my son's wedding..." "Cut it out!" "This day has come at last." "My son, dad has bought gold rings." "Give one to your bride." "Do not be offended by the modesty of the wedding meal." "What can we do?" "There's a war on." "But everything we offer is offered from the heart!" "And if there was no war..." "And if the times were any better, and if his mother was alive..." "Keep it happy, my friend!" "Thank you, my friend!" "Comrades..." "This is the right moment for all of us to thank Comrade Marko from the bottom of our hearts for all these years during which he has looked after us, fed us and tended to us." "I want to say:" "Thank you, my Marko!" "Thank you, Comrade Marko!" "Sit down!" "Last month, we produced 200 light weapons." "Is that nothing?" "No, it's not!" "Bravo!" "Thanks, Marko!" "But our greatest success is our tank, the one we made with our own hands!" "I am happy and proud of the fact that the time will soon come when we shall use our tank to liberate our country for good!" "Tank... forward!" "Congratulations, comrades!" "Congratulations!" "Thank you, uncle Marko." "Whose brats are these?" "They belong to us all." "Play, you fucker!" "We..." "The two of us made this together..." "You shouldn't have." "Thank you, Ivan." "Come on, I have something to tell you." "I need a quick word with him." "Listen... as soon as everyone's drunk, we'll get out to fight." "Not a drop until Liberation!" "Marko will be angry." "I've waited for Marko, the Russians, Tito and the Party for 15 years!" "The time's never right." "The time is now!" "Let's kill the scum and end the war!" "That's it, my son!" "Let's go!" "You little bastards!" "Stop drinking, Natalija." " Give me the bottle back." " What?" " The bottle!" " I'll give you the bottle all right!" "Here!" "Stop drinking when I tell you." "I would but I can't look at you when I'm sober." "You can't look at me but you can look at him?" "I thought I could but I can't either." "You can't look at him either?" "See this?" "This is for you." "And this is for him." "I drink brandy and you've been drinking my blood for 20 years, motherfucker!" "Natalija, you fucking bitch!" "Fuck you and your fucking mother too!" "Where's Blacky?" "How are you?" "Darling!" "What is it, darling?" "You're crying!" "Why are you crying?" "I don't know." "Are you happy?" "Yes, I'm happy!" "Are you crying because you're happy?" "Is it moonlight at noon" "Is it sunshine at midnight" "From the skies above Light is beaming" "Nobody knows, nobody knows" "Nobody knows, nobody knows" "What is really shining" "Motherfucker!" "What's wrong with you?" "My time has come at last!" "Cut it out!" "You too!" "Here you are!" "I've had enough of both of you!" "Enough!" "You pathetic little man!" "What do you want?" "What's wrong, Natalija?" "I wasted my youth!" "What youth?" "Twenty years!" "Twenty years of my blood-stained life!" "This is a catastrophe!" "This brandy's good!" "It's strong!" "Real strong stuff." "The monkey's getting into the tank!" "A catastrophe!" "The gun's moving!" "He's moving it!" "A catastrophe!" "Some wine, Natalija?" "Shit, I lost!" "And I chose the rules." "If there was no war..." "Otchy tchernye..." "Otchy strasnye..." "I'd have been the leading lady of the Moscow State Theatre." "I'd have performed in my mother tongue..." "What's this rubbish?" "Since when has your mother been Russian?" "You're drunk!" "Listen to me..." "You can't talk to her as if she was your wife!" "Understood?" "You're absolutely right!" "Every good party needs a Russian song!" "Without the war, I'd have been the Yugoslav Maïakovski." "I'd have gone to his grave in Moscow, bowed and said:" ""You were heard from the heavens like thunder." ""We marched along behind you." Left!" "Left!" "No one will listen." "The monkey's in the tank!" "He's smart." " It's a catastrophe!" " Get lost!" "What did you want to tell me?" "Something terrible." "So tell me." "Later, I don't want to spoil the wedding." "Tell me, don't worry." "What?" "You love Marko, right?" "I know that." " It's not that." " It is!" " It's not." " It is!" "It's not that." "I wanted to tell you this is all a lie." "Our whole life is a lie." "And I can't live without you!" "You can't?" "Oh, come on..." "Music!" "Stop the music!" "Did you hear what I said?" "My son!" "Listen carefully to what I say." "Never trust a lying woman." "I won't, dad!" "You're frightened, Colonel, aren't you?" "Stop drinking and talking rubbish!" "Frightened?" "Colonel..." "I'll kill you!" "I swear to God I will!" "How could you kill me?" "I've been dead for twenty years." "Try it." "Maybe they'll promote you to Secret Service General." "Stop it!" "You couldn't give me a child, so kill me!" "Maybe you can manage that!" "You're evil!" "What am I?" "A murderer!" "A criminal!" "A thief!" "So I'm evil?" " Worse than that." " Worse?" "Do you know why I'm so evil?" "Do you?" "Do you know why?" "You're damned!" "Because I love you." "I love you!" "When you fell for me, you put these people down here to live, die and work for you!" "Because I love you, don't you see?" "I can't live without you!" "Do they miss anything?" "Yes, a lot!" "You dragged me into your crime... because you love me?" "Only because I love you!" "What else do I have?" "Children?" "Friends?" "You have nothing!" "I have nothing... but you... if you want that." "My God..." "You lie so beautifully!" "I never lie!" "What are you doing, my... friend?" "Just talking." "Talking?" "And you have to talk in the dark?" "The noise disturbed us." "The noise disturbed you?" "The party disturbs you?" " My son's wedding disturbs you?" " You misunderstood me!" "I understood perfectly, believe me." "I have a headache." "How surprising!" "Look at them." "Give it to me..." "My friend... let's break the tradition of a friend killing his best friend." "Here's the gun..." "Do the rest yourself!" " You know why?" " I know." "I think it's fair." "I'm a free woman!" "A catastrophe!" "Now we'll see whose mother will mourn." "Dad!" "Jovan, my son!" "Get the weapons!" "We're going!" "Where to?" "Outside, to end the war!" "The Germans will kill us." "But, dad..." "Stop daddying me!" "Come on!" "We're off to war, not to a brothel!" "The Germans will kill me!" "Right!" "Women and revolution don't go together." "Untie us!" "Don't cry, Natalija." "We won't be parted long this time." "I'll wait for you!" "I'll wait for you!" "Soni!" "Jovan, my son!" "Dad!" "Smell the Danube?" "I don't." "You really get on my nerves..." "Come on!" "Dad!" " One question." " What?" "The colour..." "You call this green?" "Dark green." "You call this green?" "Green!" "Motherfuckers..." "Fuckers!" "He hates the colour." "Green!" "Fuck your green!" "Torturer!" "Criminal!" "The director is waiting for you!" "Keep on pissing..." "Keep on pissing!" "Not for long..." "Not for long!" "Hit out, son!" "Not me, you moron!" "You dare piss on my city?" " Dad's city!" " My city!" "62, 64, 66, 68, 70..." "Shit!" "2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12..." "Madam, where's Jovan?" " They've gone outside." "Someone fired." " They'll betray us." "They won't be able to betray anyone." "They were killed." "Ringe ringe raja Here comes Uncle Paja" "We are at this historic spot where in the year of 19..." "1944... cowardly criminals murdered our National Hero," "Petar Popara Blacky." "Don't be afraid, my son!" "Don't be afraid." "What was that, dad?" "A pheasant." "Is it dangerous?" "A pheasant?" "Dangerous?" "It's like a wild hen!" "There's the sun." "That's the moon, my boy." "The moon." "Where's the sun?" "The sun is asleep." "It is resting." "Come on!" "Keep down!" "I'm just saying that you look so much like Franzi, and Franzi is short for Franz." "Because "i" is the smallest letter." "Here we are!" "Franz!" "See that blond man, son?" "That's Franz." "Look at him." "He hasn't changed in fifteen years." "That's Germans for you!" "He tortured you." "And sent Natalija to a camp." "Perfect!" "A disguise?" "He thinks I won't recognize him." "What's the other one doing?" "A collaborator!" "Franz!" "What's all this smoke?" "Sabotage or what?" "Let's make the execution look as natural as possible." "What?" "Dad, he looks like you!" " Who?" " That one!" "The skinny one?" "You really get on my nerves!" "I could belt you at times." "You're just like your mother." "I don't believe it!" "You ask me to act naturally!" " I didn't say that!" " Yes, you did." "I'm not stupid." "You did say that." "Honestly..." "Come on, don't be touchy!" "Honestly, I don't know what I'm supposed to do now!" "Hold on!" "Is this natural for you?" "Honestly, man..." "Come and shoot me!" "That's it!" "Here's the gun and the camera, now shoot me!" "The one like you seems very brave." "All brave people look like me." "Are you soldiers or ballerinas?" "Look at you!" "Come on, roll!" "Where's the smoke?" "Never there when it's needed!" "Get away from me!" "Now!" "Look what he's doing." "He'd stop at nothing!" "That's true." "But he's the best I've ever worked with." "And I've worked with quite a few..." "He gives us room to improvise." "Get lost!" "Get away from me!" "I can't concentrate!" "Tell her!" "Get to your places." ""Spring Comes on a White Horse", scene 32a, take one." "Action!" "Get rid of that!" "Get rid of it!" "I want to look death in the eye!" "Would you like one last cigarette?"

"Don't interrupt the shot!" "Act!" "Call this directing?" "God!" "Long live the Communist Party of Yugoslavia!" "Under the leadership of Comrade Tito!" "Fucking fascist motherfuckers!" "Don't interrupt the sequence, you idiots!" "Throw it, son!" "Charge!" "Just like me!" "Where's security?" "Comrade, you want a ride to West Germany?" "I'm looking for my monkey, Soni..." "You haven't seen him by any chance, have you?" "You're looking for your monkey?" "Yes, his name's Soni." "A horse!" "Jovan, sunshine, that's a deer." "A deer?" "That's how you drew horses." "It's a deer." "Jelena!" "It can't be Jelena, sunshine." "Calm down, son, calm down!" "What's that?" "That's nothing." "Just a fish." "I fished 25-pounders right here before the war." "God, I was really scared." "I was afraid for Jelena." "Don't be afraid, my boy." "I want to go back to the cellar." "Could anyone start protecting us artists?" "Could anyone look after us?" "We work day and night for our comrades!" "And we go through hell!" "Calm down." "What do you mean, calm down?" "We could've been killed!" "You do your job, let me do mine." "I can't do my job!" "You must protect my set and my life!" "My life was in danger here!" "I'll tell you..." "I didn't want to in front of him." "He's responsible." " It's his fault." " Whose?" "The director's."

"You said officially?" "The Yugoslav embassy says so." "A man bearing the same name died in 1941 during the bombing of Belgrade." "He was the zoo-keeper." "Do you know if..." "Look what he drew for me." "If he was an Indian, they'd call him He Who Surrenders." "He told me unbelievable things." "He says he lived the whole time in a cellar." "Communism was one big cellar." "The whole planet is a cellar." "I'm going to Portugal this summer." "Perhaps he could show me an underground motorway." "Happy New Year!" "Happy New Year, Ivan!" "It isn't for me!" "Why do you cry all the time?" "I want to go home to Yugoslavia!" "There's a war over there." "A horrifying war!" "I know." "Not the war you're thinking of." "In our country, there's only our war."

"I didn't want to show you this but look for yourself." "Who's on these Interpol warrants?" "Look." "Who?" "My brother Marko and Natalija." "They're wanted by the police throughout the world." "They killed some people in a cellar, traded arms..." "The crates were stamped with a monkey." "Your Soni, maybe." "Where are you going?" "Ivan!" "What's wrong?" "He lied to me!" "Who lied to you?" "My own brother!" "Don't do anything stupid!" "Ivan, we're not children!" "Let's go back!" "Come back!" "Oh, fuck it!" "Stop messing around!" "Come back!" "Wait for me!" "I can't..." "I can't go on!" "I'll die!" "Wait!" "Stop, for God's sake!" "Which way to Italy?" "We don't know." "We're lost too." "Where did you come from?" "Bosnia." "Where are you going?" "To Yugoslavia." "No Yugoslavia!" "What do you mean?" "There's no more Yugoslavia!" "Can we come?" "Yes, if you pay DM 1,000." "They paid as well." "Ivan, wait!" "Let's go to Italy!" "We'll eat spaghetti!" "We'll drink wine!" "Let's go with these people!" "What does he mean, no Yugoslavia?" "I've had enough, Ivan." "I'm going to Italy or to fucking hell!" "I can't go on!" "Take care." "Wait!" "Wait for me!" "Take care, Ivan!" "Where... have you been?" "Blood..." "Has anyone seen my Jovan?" "No." "Load!" "Fire!" "Nowhere to be found..." "Fucking fascist motherfuckers!"

"It's the Liu Xing Qiu ball that they stole!" "That's it!" "They brought Liu Xing Qiu back to this planet!" "No wonder we couldn't find it in their ship, no matter how hard we looked."

"That Liu Xing Qiu ball over there is something that we worked hard to get from the people of Calvo!" "How could you snatch it from us!" "?" "As a good grown-up, aren't you ashamed for doing something like that?" "So, you're the one..." "In that case, why don't you hand over the other Dragon Ball that you have?" "What did you say?" "The Dragon Ball with four stars inside it." "Who exactly are you!" "?" "I am Mutchi-motchi, the Prayergiver." "Look there!" "This is our great god of destruction, Lood-sama." "Lood-sama's resurrection is our calling!" "We will bring Lood-sama to life, and he will destroy this chaotic universe!" "We, the disciples of Lood-sama, will establish a new order!" "Now, be good and hand over your Dragon Ball" "Hey, you're just babbling nonsense!" "Anyhow, Liu Xing Qiu belongs to us, so I'm taking it back, okay?" "Bye-bye!" "H- hey, you!" "Hold it!" "What?" "That's the price you pay for not listening closely to others." "What is this?" "I can't move my arms or legs!" "I can't move anywhere!" "What on earth happened?" "Apparently, this girl wasn't carrying the Dragon Ball." "Here, you will now become one with Lood-sama!" "Enyaka yakayaka Lood-- what!" "?" "Huh?" "That's strange." "Pan's Ki suddenly disappeared." "Pan-chan!" "Pan-chan!" "Who are you guys!" "?" "Mutchi-motchi-sama!" "What are you guys doing in this condition!" "?" "Uh, well, you see..." "Um, the Dragon Ball..." "We brought it to you!" "Yes!" "I see, I see, well done." "Is that what you expect me to say!" "?" "What!" "?" "Those guys were pals of yours!" "That was an awful thing to do!" "Awful?" "They were disciples of Lood-sama, our god of destruction." "Becoming one with Lood-sama is the greatest joy one can attain for a disciple of Lood-sama." "Lood?" "And, by saving us a lot of trouble by not having to go after you ourselves," "Bonpara and the others have served their purpose." "Now then, how about you hand over your Dragon Ball?" "Don't be ridiculous!" "You give us back the Liu Xing Qiu ball that you stole!" "Lood-sama is angry!" "Hand it over!" "I refuse!" "Me too!" "Oh, is that right?" "Then I'll take it from you after I've disposed of you!" "What!" "?" "That was dirty!" "It's your own fault for falling for such a simple trick!" "You're not too bad, huh?" "Well, how do you like this!" "?" "Goku-san!" "Ooh, yow!" "Boy, you really are a sneaky guy, huh!" "?" "I will do anything to win!" "It is the teaching of Lood-sama!" "Now then, to finish you off!" "Come on!" "Get out here!" "How do you like him?" "This is my precious Leion!" "Trunks!" "Grandpa!" "Pan is over here!" "Help me!" "Gill, over here!" "Over here!" "I can't move--!" "Oh, I'm going to remember that, you worthless robot!" "Once I can move again, you're not going to get away with that for nothing!" "That's right, it's me!" "It's Pan!" "Reading life signs." "Reading life signs." "Pan!" "That's right, Gill, it's me!" "Who is that?" "This isn't possible!" "Are you okay, Trunks?" "Yeah." "Sorry about dropping my guard like that." "What's that?" "Looks like you can handle yourselves somewhat." "But don't be too proud of yourselves for having defeated Motchi." "He was nothing more than my servant." "T- the whip is moving on its own!" "Very well then, let me show you my true form...!" "He has an incredible Ki!" "What are you!" "?" "Who are you!" "?" "I am Mutchi, the Priest of Lood-sama!" "The mysterious Priest of Lood, Mutchi, stands before Goku and Trunks." "What kind of abilities will he surprise Goku with?" "And what will be the fate of Pan, who has been turned into a doll?"

"Captioning made possible by ae television networks" "can you get this on record?" "Yeah." "Okay, good... any progress on getting the interview with the man himself?" "Ahem, the ambassador?" "No, Nero Wolfe, Nero Wolfe." "Yeah, that would be a real feather in my hat." "Nero Wolfe, man, i'll tell ya, i'd have a by-line on the front page of every newspaper in the country." "(Leeson) Okay, kid, listen here." "This is an experiment on how being in nature away from the secretaries the pens and paper, long tables the formal diplomacy." "How, perhaps, being in nature may actually, be able to change people's minds." "You know, president eisenhower is actually considering using camp David as such a place." "When i invited kelefy to come fish at my lodge, it, ah, never occurred to me i was gonna instigate some kind of an international incident." "Then the state department got into it and the conglomerate lodged a complaint." "My, my... a complaint!" "(kelefy) These people know that we have a very rich cache of oil in our country." "Now, you know that oil is big money." "You mine it cheaply, you sell it high." "The only way to do that is to take it to other countries." "(ferris) It's always brutal when you're talking about fuel." "A resource, oil, black gold." "Everybody wants it." "(papps) In this country, the government meddles more in the affairs of, of businessmen." "Whereas, ah, where we are, it is left up to the businessmen to really set things straight." "(Archie goodwin) The new ambassador from vezenhuego and wanted to taste his famous brook trout." "The state department wanted vezenhuego's oil and asked Wolfe for the favor." "(man) Mr. Goodwin, i presume?" "(Archie) Yes, yes, yes." "(Archie) Yes, yes, yes." "Do you do?" "Very good, thank you, very nice to meet you." "(Wolfe) This is an abomination!" "Ah, mr." "Wolfe... mr." "Secretary, Leeson." "I'm..." "Archie, i have lumbago and i will not... i will be dining in my room." "That's a hell of a way to serve your country." "You don't have lumbago, what it is, is we've driven 328 miles, your back is sore." "From 35th street to the adirondacks, what do you expect... confound it, it's lumbago!" "No, it's acute grumpiness... lumbago!" "20 years ago, Nero Wolfe got the papers that made him a u.s. Citizen." "Who is this vezenhuego idiot?" "He'd always been grateful, so he agreed to cook for the ambassador and various american oil interests vying for the large oil contract." "Uh, hello." "(Bragan) Ah, thank god, here they are." "Come on in, mr." "Wolfe, welcome to my humble abode!" "Very pleased to meet you, sir." "I'd like you to meet the ambassador from vezenhuego, mr." "Kelefy and his wife." "It's a pleasure to meet you." "I'm a great admirer of yours." "(laughs)" "Dinner will be at 6:30." "Where is my room?" "Your room's right along there." "(clamoring)" "I have lumbago..." "i have it." "And, now, i must eat at a strange table with a jumble of strangers in a nightmare, dime-store, frontier theme park filled with..." "bacteria-infested animals!" "So why don't you giddyup on down to the mess hall and tell them that i will not be chowing down with you this evening!" "Wolfe's real problem was aggravated laziness." "Wolfe's real problem was aggravated laziness. c hatter)" "When does it stop?" "Perhaps a little later on, after another cocktail." "My wife is r" "(Archie) Why is that unfortunate?" "Because the ambassador, yesterday, caught only two." "Tomorrow, i'm going to have a migraine not go fishing." "David, we are getting a townhouse on jay street." "My name is spiros papps." "I am here as advisor to my good friend, cy, i am here as advisor theodore kelefyriend, en who is the ambassador of vezenhuego." "I am an expert and a financier." "Tell me a little something about these people because the introductions, they were skimpy." "David m." "Leeson, assistant secretary of state." "Oh, yeah, he called Wolfe." "His influence with the ambassador makes him a linchpin to any deal." "He's very close to the ambassador." "Oh, okay, what about her?" "Mrs. Sally Leeson, she is an asset to any career diplomat." "She doesn't look like she's having a good time, i'll tell you that." "She's a woman of many moods." "What about that one over there?" "That is adria kelefy, wife of the ambassador, a woman full of life." "Sitting across from you there, james arthur ferris." "He's gotta be somebody's lackey 'cause he's sitting next to the fire, too, he's burning up in the frying pan." "No, as a matter of fact, he's a billionaire." "This guy over here is a billionaire?" "They stick him next to the fire like me." "He's the head of five oil syndicates." "Wait a minute, wait a minute." "Bragan invited the competition to go fishing?" "It was my idea to invite him." "It was Bragan's idea to make him uncomfortable." "I'm a man of malice, mr." "Goodwin." "I am a man of guile." "(hysterical laughter)" "You're what?" "Ah, your excellency!" "Madame kelefy, as the host, it's my honor to propose the first toast." "So, i would like to welcome our honored friends to the united states of america, the land of plenty." "We are a marvelous machine, a machine that can feed the world." "But, a machine that needs fuel to feed herself." "And, so, we turn to the little countries, the backwaters, who have the resources but don't know what to do with them." "And, to them, we offer a hand." "A hand, of course, that is filled with the benefits of civilization." "Our technology, our medicine, our... jets, your planes, your tanks... and our indoor plumbing, mr." "Ambassador, don't forget that." "(all laughing)" "(continues) But this exchange has but one goal:" "That you never forget that texas, united states of america, is your friend." "So, ladies and gentlemen, my toast for this evening is to a long and prosperous friendship, mr." "Ambassador." "(applause)" "I would like to say how beautiful my wife looks this evening." "(applause)" "Absolutely, mr." "Ambassador." "Mr. Wolfe?" "Oh, yes, beautiful." "First, i would like to thank mr." "O.v. Bragan for providing us with this haven, this oasis far away from my "backwater" country." "(Bragan) My pleasure, sir." "And far away from the chitchat of Washington." "I would also like to thank my dearest David Leeson, for providing this magnificent adventure." "And, without whom, i would never have fallen so in love with fly fishing." "We are a people of beauty and passion and great love." "And we pledge friendship, steadfast loyalty and the pursuit of the american dream." "(Bragan) Hear, hear!" "Well said, mr." "Ambassador." "Ferris, you can toast another time, when you host, maybe." "(papps) I revel in it, seeing big men sharing bad blood." "Look at them." "Too damn much hot air!" "You know, there is nothing as petty as a big man." "Little men are rarely as petty as big men... look at him." "I mean, hot air!" "About your... your behavior during dinner." "You know how i feel about disturbances at a meal." "Yes, it was either that or i fry, so... i concede that this was an exception." "This Bragan is either a dunce or a ruffian." "So, are you going fishing tomorrow?" "No, i'm not going fishing." "See any reason why i shouldn't?" "No, none that i caother than common sense." "All right, well, good night." "All right, well, good ndid you see these?" "Look, it's some sort of tribute to the myth of the frontier." "Yeah, yeah..." "Archie, you were right to oppose this expedition." "These people are engaged in bitter combat." "In his present humor, i doubt if the ambassador could distinguish between truite bleu and carp fried in lard." "Archie... if, uh... if we left tomorrow right after lunch, would we be home by bedtime?" "Ah, yeah, sure, sure..." "good night." "Good night..." "Archie!" "What is this?" "Apinata." "Archie, this, uh, other creature on my bed, could you remove this?" "I doubt i could sleep with it." "Are you going to sleep?" "Yes, i'll sleep, normally, i do." "I'm gonna play a little pool first, though." "You must keep your mind on business." "You were talking entirely too much at dinner." "Now, we have things to do here." "We must do them quickly and efficiently." "I will not have you embarrass me one more time, you understand me?" "As i came down the stairs, i noticed papps had left a few details out of his introductions." "Last night, he saw the light." "Let me tely home and you, sir, are my guest." "Oh, for god's sake, don't pull that great man act on me." "If i were you, i'd be worried about papps." "He's not the kind of man who stays bought." "Hey, you waiting for your cue?" "What a fool." "Who, uh, ferris?" "I honestly thought the americans would pull together." "Instead, they could sink the negotiations." "There's other people that want that oil, y'know." "Well, listen, tomorrow's another day and you'll be tasting Wolfe's cooking." "All right, everybody, gather round." "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, come on, kids, come on." "Put that cue down, come on over here!" "Come on, you ladies, ladies, come on in!" "Now, then." "(mariachi music)" "Let's hear it, come on!" "(cheering)" "Bring on the dancing girls!" "(cheering yelling)" "(cheering)" "(chatter)" "(Archie) There were a lot of twists and turns in the three miles of river that Bragan owned." "Bragan and kelefy had the two sections north of the lodge and Leeson and ferris were working the two south bends." "If papps developed the headache he was planning on, i planned to take his stretch in the middle." "Good day, everyone." "Ah, yes." "Feeling better today?" "No, the pain, the pain." "His promise of a migraine so his boss could catch a few more fish." "Wish me luck!" "Do you see the sheen?" "Yes." "Wolfe kept his mind off lumbago by prepping for the trout." "Where all of the essences form to make this genius dish." "Here, taste." "Salt." "It needs salt, ha-ha!" "Wh... what did you say?" "And a bit of onion, where's the onion?" "Onion!" "Wh... what..." "you would destroy th... the delicate taste of trout with onion!" "It's a joke, it's a joke... !" "It's absolutely perfect, it's a joke." "You call yourself a chef?" "You make a joke in the middle of proofing a sauce!" "You know w witling." "Bragan told me, not very cordially, to help myself to supplies." "Well, i ended up with a walton special three-piece rod, a poughqueag reel, a fly box with two dozen assorted flies." "I estimated that i was about $400 on the hoof." "It was 10:30 wher." "I wanted to work the section set aside for papps until the rest came back." "Then i'd have the river all to myself." "Will you catch one for lunch, a fish?" "If it's big enough to keep, i will." "What is the biggest fish you ever caught?" "The biggest fish i ever caught?" "That'd have to be frankie "the shark" d'angelo." "Was he difficult to catch?" "Yes, he put up quite a struggle." "Now let me try, i want to... ah, no no no, no no." "It'd be fun to watch you catch a fish but, see, Bragan lent this to me and, ah, but, see, Bragan lent i can't give it to you." "Now, you still smoke?" "I do, occasionally, not... oh, pink!" "Pink, yes." "Pink, my favorite color." "How could i forget pink?" "I just want to catch a fish, why is that wrong?" "This is not my gear, all right?" "Bragan, he lent it to me so there's certain rule." "Now, listen, i'm sorry." "And i'll show you how sorry i am." "I will tell you my first thought when i saw you last evening... if you'd care to hear it, would you?" "I'm not sure." "Oh, look at her, she's at it again." "Unbelievable." "You know, she will never change." "Come, you still play backgammon?" "That big ring on your husband's left hand, is it an emerald?" "Se." "Our so this is what i was thinking, i was thinking that your husband, he ought to display his assets a little bit more effectively." "Oh, yeah?" "How?" "Well, by combining his assets you and the emerald, you see." "See, what i would do is, i would take the emerald and i would turn it into an earring and i would put it in your right ear." "Your left ear... what would i do with i'm not sure." "Anyway, that's what i would do with your right ear." "Like it, i like pearls." "Now give me that rod." "Good morning, mrs." "Kelefy." "Hard at work, mr." "Goodwin?" "Indeed." "I just wanted to catch a fish and this man won't give me his rod, let me use your rod." "Do you know how to use it?" "It takes a certain expertise." "It's all in the wrist, when you cast." "Now, how can i help you today, mr." "Ferris?" "I'm not sure." "I don't know what you're doing in this kitchen!" "(yelling)" "It's full of bacteria!" "How dare you say a thing like that!" "Diiingg, diiingg, diiingg!" "Diiingg!" "Don't terrify my people here!" "I asked you to julienne these!" "That is julienne!" "It is not julienne!" "It is julienne according to the french!" "I don't care what the french think!" "Ahh... mr." "Goodwin." "You're fishing, too." "Eight trout." "Ah, very nice." "I ran into Bragan, he has had the audacity to catch 12." "That is no way to win an oil contract." "I mu?" "Get back and show my wife." "She's out fishing right now." "You think she's caught something?" "She had hook in a big one." "I must go and show my fish." "I'll see you at lunch!" "Hoit, hoit." "Let's go, gentlemen, every second affects the texture of the flesh." "I'd only caught three fish when i started Leeson's stretch." "Then i got a hit that almost pulled me over." "I couldn't believe it." "This was the grandpa of all trout." "(papps) Look at, beautiful!" "That is magnificent!" "Mr. Wolfe!" "We wish to offer you the praise that you so lavish... where is he?" "He's gone to pack." "Good god!" "Thankgod." "(Bragan) Goodwin, did you see secretary Leeson?" "No, sir." "So unlike him." "He probably just wanted to fill up his creel." "You always exaggerate about how many fish you catch." "I got to give you a little report here." "See, i want you to know before the others." "I just found secretary Leeson downstream, clobbered." "Good heavens." "His skull is..." "are you listening?" "His skull is bashed in above the temple." "His armpits are cold as can be." "Maybe we should go." "He's dead." "Perhaps we should leave." "We wouldn't get past albany." "Why the devil did you have to go fishing!" "I decided that more proper attire would be needed to break the news." "Mrs. Leeson, i regret to inform you that secretary Leeson has been found down... (screaming)" "If you have to, i will take you there." "Mr. Bragan, i need you to call the police and a doctor now." "(man) You put a handkerchief under the dead man's head?" "Yes, i did." "Very sensible." "I'll get a better look at him in the hospital." "David!" "You, smart guy." "Inside." "I understand that the ambassador and mrs." "Kelefy and mr." "Papps have diplomatic immunity and therefore don't have to... no, no, we would be very happy to cooperate." "I mean, even diplomats can be human on occasion." "On behalf of the people of the state of new york, i thank you, sir." "Now, according to your statements, you all have alibis." "Those of you who were here in the lodge have witnesses." "Those of you who were down in the river have fish... i caught 12 trout!" "That takes time, even if they're biting." "Yes, and mr." "Ferris caught 10 and ambassador kelefy caught eight." "I mentioned i've been bothered by poachers have you investigated that angle?" "Well, I..." "why not?" "!" "Because i guess we..." "oh, nate, just bring it here." "I, uh, i wrapped it in newspaper." "Now, this was found 500 feet downstream from the bend, wedged between two rocks." "(screaming)" "No, no, don't look, don't look." "I'm sorry, but this was necessary." "As you can see, it's been sawed off at both ends and it wasn't in the water long enough to wash away the blood stains." "(Bragan) Of course!" "Poacher picked up a branch and... crrk!" "There's pieces of wood like that in the wood pile." "If this was sawed off at both ends it means it was premeditated." "I'd have to agree." "(Bragan) Find the poacher, man!" "What are you wasting our time for?" "Well, sir, because we've come to a conclusion." "We don't like it, we don't like it at all, but... a duty is a duty, no matter how painful." "What conclusion?" "The perpetrator of the murder is somebody in this lodge." "Now listen here, my little good captain colvin!" "Do you know who my guests are?" "I certainly do." "There was an article in the newspaper yesterday and a dispatch at headquarters from washington." "Might help to know what state the negotiations have reached." "You're out of your depth, colvin." "You certainly are." "The article mentioned there was a rivalry between you and mr." "Ferris, they said it was intense and bitter." "I assume that's a guess you're making, sergeant." "Americans do not fight with clubs, not for millions." "Anybsneaked through the woods and cked up a stick from that wood pile." "Yes, yes, but the laws of probability force us to focus on the people here." "Not just you, gentlemen." "We have Archie goodwin, and Nero Wolfe." "According to the same article, you came here to cook trout?" "I was asked to serve my country." "Baloney, what's the real reason?" "Oh, don't spoil it, mr." "Colvin." "Answer the question, why are you here?" "You have hinted delicately at a connection between the death of secretary Leeson and this contest of oil rights." "The one notable incident i would add to my statement is that last night mr." "Bragan arranged the seating at the table so that mr." "Ferris and mr." "Goodwin were roasted before our eyes." "Their only choice was cremation or discourtesy." "Are you through?" "Did you listen?" "Yes, brilliant, case solved." "Now, at what time did you and mr." "Goodwin have breakfast?" "I had mine early." "Mr. Goodwin had his at 9:30." "Ah-ha!" "Is this significant?" "Plenty of time for goodwin to slip down to the river, kill mr." "Leeson and establish himself back on the veranda." "Wild conjectures have their place in an investigation, sir but it is better not to blab them until they are supported by at least a slender thread of fact." "Your being here stinks to high heaven." "Now what was the real reason?" "And don't give me any guff about trout." "Let us be explicit, do you call me a liar?" "I do." "Then there's no point in going on." "I'm not through with you." "Your statement, it's absolutely complete?" "Yes." "Theryou didn't mention?" "No." "Nothing notable?" "No." "You don't find it notable that you came here to cook the ambassador's trout... that's what you say you came here for, right?" "Yes." "And yet, according to the cook, when you did cook the fish, you didn't include the ambassador's." "You don't find that notable?" "Not especially, no." "Well, i do!" "I looked at those fish, there's nothing wrong with them that i can see." "Ambassador kelefy, did you know that he didn't cook your fish?" "No, i did not, this is rather a surprise." "Can you think of any reason why not?" "I'm afraid not, but no doubt mr." "Wolfe can supply one." "Well, what about it, Wolfe... why?" "Relate it to the murder, mr." "Colvin." "I don't have to." "Well, the trout are here, scrutinize them, dissect them, send them to the laboratory." "You can conduct a simple examination." "I don't believe your story, Wolfe." "I resent your tone, your diction, your manners and your methods!" "Only a witling would call a man of my conceit a liar." "Come, Archie." "(phone ringing)" "Captain colvin." "Very nice, mr." "Wolfe." "Yes, sir, how are you... yes, sir." "Yes, sir, i will, thank you, sir." "That was district attorney howard jessel." "He's arriving here at 5:00." "He doesn't want me to ask any more questions gets here." "He doesn't want me to ask any more questionstil he" "(Wolfe) Answer the door." "There's nobody at the door." "There is a shadow." "Wolfe, i want to talk to you about something." "Mr. Bragan, don't stand on ceremony." "Indeed, don't stand at all." "It disconcerts me to look up at people." "Look, i like the way you handled colvin." "I didn't, i want to go home." "Should have toadied him, i didn't, vanity comes high." "Home." "I well, he's a fool!" "The idea that anyone murdered Leeson is absurd." "Not any more absurd than the idea of a poacher selecting a log, then..." "would you please sit down?" "!" "All right, maybe it wasn't a poacher." "Wolfe, i want you to find who killed Leeson and i want you to do it damn quickly!" "I can't emphasize how quickly." "This must be cleared up!" "Leeson murdered in my lodge... the state department might decide to freeze me out." "Name your price." "I think not." "If i have a word with the district attorney, he'll take your statement and let you go back to new york." "No." "Mean, no?" "U the hell with appeal i have a reason." "What is it?" "I do not wish to disclose it." "Mr. Bragan, you're an overbearing man, but i am a dogged one." "While i owe you the courtesy of a guest, i owe you nothing more, i decline the job." "(knocking)" "Come in!" "What do you want, ferris?" "Ho, ho, well, well, Bragan." "I'm glad you're here, i have something i want to say to you and i want witnesses present." "For god's sakes, ferris, there's been a murder." "Tomorrow, it'll be on the front page of a thousand papers tomorrow, i'm going to go to the district attorney and tell him the truth." "Congratulations." "About how you had a man in paris working on kelefy." "And a woman working on mrs." "Kelefy." "And how you put the screws to Leeson with some sort of blackmail." "You better watch what you say, mr." "Ferris." "As you say, there are witnesses." "You thought your dirty scheme was all set, didn't you?" "You had Leeson eating out of the palms of your hands, didn't you?" "Ha, ha, oh no, he started talking to me and he began to see the light." "I needed just one more day." "One more day to close but that day's come." "And Leeson's no longer here." "By god, you bought papps back, didn't you?" "You got it." "(laughing)" "Let go my arm." "Look, sally..." "spiros, go away." "Can't you just leave me alone?" "But, you shouldn't be alone... and you've come to comfort me?" "If i can." "Or to save your precious deal?" "Look, sally..." "don't you dare!" "He trusted you." "(Wolfe) Pleistocene, saber-toothed hyenas hungry for each other's flesh." "Uh, yeah, yeah, right, i agree." "Listen, i think you missed a bet there, see." "If Bragan had talked the district attorney into letting us go, we'd be home in seven hours." "Archie, i'm taking another bath." "Yeah, fine, but you know, the fastest way home is to find the killer and collect the fee from Bragan." "The investigation is in captain colvin's thumbs." "(kelefy) I had hoped, mr." "Wolfe, to thank you for the meal under happier circumstances." "Yes, well, to be chosen as an instrument of hospitality on behalf of my country is a great honor." "I regret the calamity that spoiled it." "I thought it might amuse you to know how i came to make the request." "Who knows in advance what will kill him." "His insatiable curiosity." "We are, as you have guessed, still curious about you." "Merely curious?" "Why did you not cook the fish my husband caught?" "Caprice, i am a confirmed ecceric." "Still, even a caprice must spring from something." "No, no, no, a whim, a freakish dart of the mind." "I see." "I apologize for my persistence but in any cause celebre unexplained facts give rise to wild rumors." "While the fact that you did not cook my fish can't possibly be connected to the murder, the gossips will do their best to invent one." "You see my dilemma?" "I do." "What will be thought, what will not be thought." "Well, what if i to say that it amused me to twist the tales of highly placed persons and that it provided me with a touch of mockery not to cook your fish, how would that be?" "(chuckling)" "Excellent, you will say that?" "Yes, i see no objection to it." "Again, my thanks." "At the present, however, some unforeseen contingency might provide one." "Provide what, an objection?" "Yes, perhaps." "I would like to oblige you, but i cannot make it a commitment." "I would not ask it of you." "My gratitude." "Yes, yes." "I hope that you will permit me to proffer a token of my gratitude." "Adria, querida, i think it would be fitting for you to present this to mr." "Wolfe as a token, a symbol of our appreciation." "I do beg you to accept this as a symbol of our gratitude." "Oh, this is most unnecessary." "If it were necessary, it would not be so great a pleasure." "Come, my dear." "You wear it monday to fridays, i wear it weekends." "Well, i'm no art expert." "Could be that the brown speck and the crack at the bottom makes it more valuable but i'd give it back." "(Archie) I stared at him." "He did this only when his brain was going full tilt with all the wheels whirling and all the wires singing." "I must make a call." "A phone call, where's the phone?" "?" "A phone call, where's the phone?" "Parker yes, who's this?" "Ah, mr." "Wolfe." "Yes, i need some information from you." "Mais il faut parler seulement francais... oui." "Does that help you at all?" "Merci beaucoup." "District attorney jessel, he'd like to speak with you." "Yes, yes, first things first." "Mr. Jessel, if i am to disclose the identity of the murderer of mr." "Leeson, i should like to have it done in the presence of everyone." "I wish you to gather them all in the great room." "But before i disclose the murderer, i wish to speak to the secretary of state." "Of new york?" "Of the united states of america, you mid-level moron." "I see, well... i have a "must" too, mr." "Wolfe." "Yes?" "You must tell me what you're going to say!" "Impossible, i have a score to settle." "And you might interfere with my payment." "The murderer has foolishly offended my self-esteem..." "you, go!" "I'm not gonna... jasper... nate." "Make the call." "Mr. Wolfe." "This man is either drunk, drugged or insane!" "(papps) Let him talk." "When i arrived here, i was informed that all of you had gone fishing the day before." "And so, all had caught a considerable number of fish." "All of you, except the ambassador." "That is correct." "My luck was very bad but, as you know, today, my luck was good." "Do you know, sir, why i did not cook your fish?" "Caprice..." "as you have told me, you have a very peculiar sense of humor." "It was at your suggestion that i concocted that bogus explanation." "Ahh... one of yours, mr." "Bragan?" "(Bragan) Yes, my... i did not serve them, sir, because the fish were not fresh." "Not fresh?" "You caught them yesterday, tied them together and left them somewhere in the creek." "Then you came in, pretending to have caught nothing." "Why would i do such a thing?" "To establish an alibi, sir." "You brought those fish in this morning pretending that you had spent hours catching them when in fact, you were killing Leeson." "(gasps)" "(gasps)" "(kelefy) Mr. Wolfe, why would i want to kill my own best friend?" "I could not surmise that, sir." "But then, you came to my room to find out if i suspected you." "When i tacitly admitted i did, you made the mistake of offering me a bribe." "An emerald..." "this emerald." "See, this, mr." "Jessel?" "This, mr." "Jessel, was the wound to my self-esteem." "A gift from an admirer." "It was a bribe, to silence me." "Had it measured up to my conceits, had it been the kohinoor diamond, or even the zabara diamond, it might have served its purpose, who can say?" "But it is merely a large emerald with a noticeable flaw." "This is quite fantastic." "But then, sir, you insisted that your wife hand me the emerald." "I believe your words were, "i think, my dear, it would be fitting for you to present it to mr." "Wolfe."" "Why that choice of words, sir, why was it fitting?" "Diplomatic speech is flowery." "But rarely without purpose." "It forced me to consider her." "Did your wife drive you to murder?" "Since i have been here, she has exercised her not-very-subtle charms on every male guest in this house." "Of all of them, only mr." "Leeson refused her." "Did mr." "Leeson have an affair with your wife when he served in your country?" "Oh, don't be absurd!" "Preposterous!" "David Leeson, he was just a boy scout." "Sir, answer me." "Sir, answer me!" "Yes, it was all her fault." "You had an affair with my husband in your own house!" "You had your claws... (Archie) Take it easy, girls." "(speaking foreign language)" "You had your claws in him so deep, i got him called back home." "You went after him again, as soon as you saw him, didn't you?" "But he wouldn't have any of it." "So you told your husband everything, didn't you?" "In one of your famous little fits." "You had him kill David!" "Madam!" "Why in god's name did you not say this before?" "Because i didn't want anyone in washington to know what a fool David had been." "Besides, what difference does it make now?" "I mean..." "the law cannot touch them." "Why not?" "He's a killer." "There's one advantage to being in the woods, mr." "Wolfe." "We can at least book him, hold him until... hold your tongue, mr." "Colvin." "Not another word." "The kelefys are immune to prosecution, but we are not." "Now, i asked my lawyer to read me a statute on diplomatic im." "Archie, if you will, read the last paragraph." "(Archie) Sure, yes." "Ahem, "anyone who obtains a writ of process" ""in violation of this statute" ""and every other officer concerned" ""in executing a writ or process" ""shall be deemed a violator of the law of nations" ""a disturber of the public repose and shall be imprisoned for not more than three years."" "(Wolfe) Yes, which is why i insisted on speaking directly to the secretary of state." "He confirmed it." "I do not wish to spend three years in prison for exposing a murderer." "Congratulations, mr." "Wolfe." "My dear, come." "(kelefy) Spiros... spiros." "Mr. Kelefy..." "a personal point." "Was it a also a stab at my self-esteem that you arranged for me to be here for the added fillip of gullg me?" "No, mr." "Wolfe." "When i expressed my desire, i had not yet contemplated actions that might arouse your prol interests." "Once i had, i thought it would be prudent not to retract the invitation." "Thank you for lunch." "Nice picture of kelefy, not many details hot him nice picture of kelefy, coming home from the airport." "S it doesn't say whether it was for the murder or ruining the oil negotiations." "I doubt if he cared much." "Thank you, Fritz." ""Death is nothing to us." ""That which is dissolved into its elements, experiences no sensations..."" "you're using those eggs?" "These eggs were laid fresh this morning." ""And that which has no sensation, is nothing to us."" "So you agree with me?" "I shall never forgive him." "For what?" "I am fond of trout, and i shall never be able to savor it in just the same way again." "You'll get over it." "Where are you going?" "Me?" "Ahem, i'm going to central park zoo... yeah." "I'm taking the widow Leeson." "Showing her the penguins, make her smile." "Yes, it's my mission in life to make her smile." "I need you here." "Oh, i'm sorry, my uh, my country calls... duty." "The orchid list just arrived, i need you." "Oh, well, i wouldn't want to miss that." "When i get back." "(phone ringing)" "Oh." "Nero Wolfe's office." "Archie good... uh... yes, sir." "Ye... ye..." "i'll ask him, sir." "Who is it?" "It's the president." "What?" "Of the united states." "And he heard about your gourmet trout, he wants to invite you to camp David for the weekend." "Hold on, sir." "Yes, sir... no, i am not interested in a subscription" "Archie, come back here!" "Archie!" "Captioning made possible by ae television networks"

" You break into places for clients?" " What do you need?" "A signed first edition of "On the Road."" " Your comic book is selling like crazy." " What?" "All "edition" employees are subject to a mandatory drug test." "How long does marijuana stay in a person's system?" " What are you doing?" " George, I have to go." " What's your name?" " Trouble."

"Is this magazine still around?" "Of course." "Anyway, I think I can win this contest." "I'm going to turn my cases into stories, but I need to come up with a heroic alter ego." " Like you did with Super Ray." " I have a new alter alter ego:" " Kevin Bacon." " What do you mean Kevin Bacon?" "He emailed me this morning." "Somehow he saw "The Birth of Super Ray."" "He wants to meet tonight." "He thinks he can option it for like $10,000." "My God, this is huge!" "He wants to play Super Ray?" "Yes." "He thinks it can finally be his big franchise character." "Kind of like a drunken Batman with a big cock." "This is amazing." "I love Kevin Bacon." "Yeah, me too." "Oh, it's George." "I've got to grab this real quick." "I'm gonna get some more iced coffee." "It's free refills." " Hello, George?" " Hey, Jonathan." "I'm just calling to confirm..." "8:30, your class, right?" "Yes, and you can talk about whatever you want." "It... you know, writing related." "Oh, I'm gonna give a good talk, I promise." "I'm feeling very inspired." "I just wrote what might be my best column ever." "Oh, that's wonderful." "Oh hey, gotta go." "I got another call coming in." " Hello?" " Hello." " Hello, who's this?" " Hello, George?" "George?" "Thank you." "Oh my God, you just spilled coffee on my baby!" "I'm so..." "I'm so sorry!" "It's iced coffee." "It's just iced coffee." " Oh my God, this is terrible." " I think you should call the police." "Are you crazy?" "It's just iced coffee." "I had much worse things happen to me when I was a kid." " It's fine." " Don't tell me how my child is doing!" "Are you okay, sweetie?" "Can I get another refill, please?" "I'm sorry." "Ow, ck!" "Wow, I've never been 86'd from a cafe." "Screw those Brooklyn moms." "I hate women." "Really?" "What about the new woman you're dating?" "Oh, I gotta break up with her." "She's paranoid, needy and jealous." "All of which make her good in bed, but the rest of the time" " it is hell." " Man, that does sound bad." "She also hacked into my email account and put her picture on my phone." "Everytime I make a call I have to see her face." "Oh my God, that's Jennifer Gladwell." "I know her!" " Brooklyn is so small." " Wait, how do you know her?" "She's one of my first clients." "She's definitely nuts." "She hired me to tail her boyfriend." "I'm gonna break up with her later." "I wanna feel like everything's in order before my meeting with Kevin Bacon." "So if he options it, what are you gonna do with the money?" "Well, probably get some health insurance." "Go to the dentist." "I haven't been to the dentist in 14 years." "I have more plaque on my teeth than teeth." "Shit, 14 years?" "What else?" "I don't know." "I'll get some drawing pencils, a new Insulin pump for my mom, maybe cover up some of these varicose veins." "Come come." "So, table for one, my friend?" " Hmm?" " Jonathan Ames." " Yes." " He's for me, Akhil." "Hello." "You must be Lakshmi Bhargava." "Very good." "I'm impressed by your pronunciation." "Thank you." "I listen to a lot of n.P.R." "Come." "So how can I help you, Mrs. Bhargava." "Well, I'm so ashamed to say this, but I suspect my husband of 15 years, Vikrum, is having a love affair." " What makes you think so?" " He's a limousine driver, but he's been coming home for weeks only after I've gone to sleep." " What excuse does he give?" " No excuse." "He must be with a woman who cooks bacon after they make love." "I smell it on his clots and s bald head." "I should have never married a poet!" "But it was arranged." "Still I..." "I've come to love him." "He's a limo driver and a poet?" "That's great." "I'm a detective and a writer." "It's good to have more than one profession." "I also teach." "I don't care." "I just want you to follow my husband." "Right." "Oh!" "Uh hey, buddy?" "Why don't you go ahead and pour me another one?" "This time make it a big-girl glass." "Jennifer, I..." "Jesus Christ." "Jennifer, I hate to, um, spring this on you right here, but I think that maybe we should stop seeing each other." "Just for a little while." "You know, maybe take a break." "What are you talking about?" "I don't want to take a break." " I really like you." " I just have a lot of stuff going on right now." "What's that supposed to mean?" "My big meeting with Kevin Bacon tonight so you can't date me 'cause you're seeing Kevin Bacon?" "I'm not seeing him." "I have a meeting." " That's what you're making it sound like." " I'm not dating Kevin Bacon." "Well, I don't know, are you?" "I don't..." "I mean..." "what?" "No." "I just want to focus on my work." "Okay?" "It's not me, it's you." "No, that's backwards." "You say, "it's not you, it's me"" " to someone." " Right." "It's not you, it's me." "All right, why don't you just be honest with me, Ray, okay?" "I can take it." "Okay, I will be honest." "You drink too much and I'm not used to it." "I like to be the heavy drinker in a relationship." "So I'll quit drinking." "I've done it a million times." "I quit three weeks ago, okay?" "I can do it again." "Okay look, here." "And that's it." "I'm done." "It's over." "Wait." " It's over." " Jennifer, you're beautiful." "But you're too much for me." "Someone will love you one day, I promise you." "It's just like Dylan said:" "It ain't me, babe." " Did you just quote Bob Dylan?" " Yes, because you love Bob Dylan." "Okay, this is now the most disgusting breakup of my life." "Do you have a air dryer in the bathroom or are there paper towels?" "Sorry to bother you." "I can't get 42 down." "Can you help me?" "The answer to 42 down is "nincompoop."" "Nincompoop!" "Oh man, thank you." "I had the poop part, but not the nincom." "Nincomop's not a word one hears every day, but I got the answer immediately because, well, that's what I am..." "a bloody nincompoop." "Well, I've just met you, but you don't seem like a nincompoop to me." "Well, I am." "I'm a poet who can't be published and I'm a driver who doesn't drive." "The two things I love, I fail at." "Why don't you drive anymore?" "I was let go." "For 12 years I gave everything I had to the number one limo company in New York, but they show me no respect." "Number one in N.Y., that's impressive." "No, that was the name of the company, but we were number one in queens." " Have you tried other companies?" " Yes." "37 applications so far, but no luck." "So I sit here, hiding from my beautiful wife, too ashamed to face her." "I know your wife." "Lakshmi Bhargava." "Hey, your pronunciation..." "how do you know her?" "I'm a private detective." "She thought you were having an affair," " so she hired me to follow you." " What?" "Well, how much do you cost?" "We can't afford you." "I lost my job." "My rates are very reasonable." "But don't you see?" "She loves you." "And she'll be relieved to know that this is all that's going on." "Look, I know how to help you and your wife." "You lost your job?" "!" "I can't believe you lied to me." "We have a mortgage." "Get out!" "Poet." "No no, he couldn't help it." "It's the economy." "He filled out 37 applications." "At least he's not cheating on you, right?" "This is worse." "This jeopardizes everything." "You are a terrible detective." " I'm not paying you." " Wait a second... wait!" "You love him;" "He loves you;" "Case closed." "I'm a good detective!" "Idiot!" " You've wrecked my life." " But..." "Table for one?" ""We need to..." "we need to defend the written word." Ah, that's better." ""Books are essential to our humanity." "We need to defend the written word."" " That is so good." " George." "Oh hi." "Come on in." "I'm just working on this talk" "I have to give to this writing class tonight." "You know, rally the youth and all of that." "Sit down actually." "Let me do it for you." "Come on." " Well, George, I..." " I was thinking, speaking to young writers is something that I could do for the magazine." "You know, I could go around the country... like Mark Twain, right?" "You know, giving inspirational talks." " Mark Twain?" " I could also, you know, like wear one of those, uh, what do you call 'em?" "You know, prosthetic mustaches." "It could be very theatrical." "Mark twain had white hair as well." "You know?" "And he loved three-piece suits." "I'm just saying." "We can discuss this later, George, but a more pressing issue is that we need to cut columns from the magazine." "Ugh, again?" "All right, how about the astrology column?" "We can lose that." "It's frivolous." "No, it's very popular." "The people love it." "I'm sorry, George, but the board in Dallas wants to cut your column." "My "By George" column?" "Oh no no no no." "Katherine, Kath..." "I've written that for 20 years." "Just this morning I wrote my best piece ever about my prostate." "Oh no no no." "They can't take that away from me." "I know, George, but they are adamant." " There's nothing we can do." " No, Katherine," "I am my column." "I mean, I'm writing it in my mind all the time." "Well, maybe you could, um, keep a diary." "I'm sorry, what?" "A diary?" "Oh..." "You know, let me ask you something here." "What exactly do you see as my role here at the magazine?" " I know it's been diminished, George." " Diminished?" "But you're still very good at cocktail parties." "Our advertisers love you." "Cocktail parties?" "Well, maybe I'll have a little drink right now then." "Yeah, hey, cocktail party." ""Hey I'm George Christopher." "You're from Dallas." "Oh, you must be an asshole."" "Jonathan?" "Oh hey, Nina." "Come in, come in." "Are you okay?" "We can reschedule this if you want." "No no, it's fine." "I just, um," "I destroyed a man's life today." "That happens." "I destroyed someone last week but people are a lot stronger than we give them credit for." "At least that's what my therapist says." "That's true." "Uh, okay, enough about me." "Let's discuss your story." "Well, first of all I love your prose." "Thank you!" "That means a lot to me." "My main question is this:" "Is it believable that a beautiful 16-year-old girl would fall in love with a high-school teacher who has a weak chin and forehead psoriasis?" "Oh yes, it is believable." "Teachers can be very charismatic." "Really?" "You have a very beautiful hand." "Thank you." "I'm sorry." "That was not appropriate." "You're my student." "Jonathan, I'm almost your age." "You haven't done anything wrong." "I've been wanting to tell you... the virginity scene in your novel is really hot even though you..." "I mean your narrator..." "had a premature ejaculation." "Oh hi, George." "Come in." "We were just... this is my student Nina Cassidy." " Hi." " Nina, this is George Christopher." " He's my mentor." " Mentor?" " Hi." " Hi, nice to meet you." "George is gonna speak to our class tonight." "Oh really?" "What are you gonna talk about?" "Ah." "So just like I have cancer of the prostate, the publishing industry also has cancer." "Magazines are dying." "Books are dying." "Newspapers are dying." "Print is dead." "Questions?" "Anybody?" "Okay, that was bleak." "Thank you, George, but like things with the environment, we have at least a few more years before the end of time." "I always have this dream where I'm flying, you know?" "And then I wake up and I'm heartbroken that I can't fly." "What do you think that means?" "I don't know." "I never dream." "I smoke pot right before I go to bed, and it shuts down the dream side of my brain." "Right." "You know, that's one of the things I love about Super Ray... is that he flies." "I have always wanted to play a superhero who could fly." " Oh, great, I..." " Listen, about my process." "I'm gonna need to get close to you." "Maybe move in, wear your clothes, t-shirts..." "kinda get your scent on me." " Really?" "That's necessary?" " Definitely." "I'm just gonna warn you..." "I don't wear deodorant." "I gotta tell you, I think it's amazing that he uses his huge cock as a weapon." "I mean that's just awesome." "I mean that just seems really true to life." "Thanks." "I kinda see his huge cock as like Thor's hammer." "Yeah well, I can definitely do that." "I'm sorry, Jonathan." "I didn't mean to wreck your class." "It's just..." "Between the cancer and things falling apart at the magazine I'm just all muddled." " I'm sorry, George." " And I'm not gonna quit, so don't even suggest it, but I think I'm addicted to marijuana again." " Oh no, why?" " Well, for one thing" "I'm not happy unless I'm stoned." "The other night I got high and I took a walk and I..." "Separated from my shadow." "Shit, that does sound strange." "Oh... and then I'm driving stoned and that's just dangerous, you know." "Especially because when I'm smoking the left and the right sides of my body just, you know, don't communicate with each other." "Do you think you might wanna hire a driver?" "Yeah, I see what you mean." "Your driving really has deteriorated." "Yeah, I know." "That marijuana makes parking especially difficult." "It's a spatial issue." "Hey, thanks so much for helping me out with this, George." " Ah." " I never should have meddled." "Yeah, in life when in doubt, never meddle." "It only causes problems." "He should be here." "There's Vikrum." "This is gonna be great." " You're gonna make him really happy." " Everybody get on the ground!" "And throw your cell phones to the middle of the floor." "Now!" "Vikrum, Vikrum, what are you doing?" "You!" "You idiot detective." "Get on the floor!" "Both of you." "I just had my suit dry-cleaned and I have a bad knee too actually." "Do you mind if I stand?" "Dry-clean?" "Shut up!" "Vikrum, don't do this." "Don't do... this is who you wanted me to hire?" " He's not really like this." " Well?" "I can talk him down." "Vikrum." "Vikrum, listen to me." "Just give me the gun, okay?" " You'll go to prison." " I don't care anymore." "I already see all of life as a prison." "At least when I was a driver" "I was in a moving prison." "Vikrum, you can't give up." "I'm also a struggling writer, but I'm gonna submit a story to "The New Yorker."" "Don't talk to me about "The New Yorker."" "Those bastards rejected 66 of my poems." "Hey, you know, they rejected all of my submissions to the caption contest." "Maybe it's just the magazine." "I'm not mechanically inclined." "Vikrum, you haven't done anything wrong yet, okay?" " You haven't taken any money." " That's because I can't open the drawer." "No, if you really wanted money you could have taken everyone's wallets and jewelry, but you didn't." "Everybody!" "Throw your wallets and jewelry to the center of the floor!" " Thank you." " Nice one." "Ugh, Jesus." "So I can try to gain the weight, but chances are I'm probably gonna have to go with a fat suit." "Uh well, I'm really not fat." "I mean, I kinda see myself as stocky or portly and I mean, you can wear a stocky suit or a portly suit." "Yeah, that's true." "Well, except for maybe in the belly area." "I'm just kinda washboardy." "You know, so I can just pad that up a little bit." "And, uh, I'll try to grow the beard but really this is all I get and I'm just highly evolved." "Oh, God damn it, motherfucking piece of shit." " I can't believe it." " Ray?" "I didn't know you'd be here." "Jennifer, this is Kevin Bacon." "Kevin this is Jennifer." " Hi." "Kevin Bacon." " Oh, he's been bragging about meeting you." "I thought he was lying." "Which he does pathologically." " Excuse me?" " Jennifer, will you just please..." " I don't know if he's made love to you yet." " No not yet." "When he does you should be careful because he gave me oral chlamydia of the mouth." " I... what?" " I didn't know you could get oral chlamydia." "I've only had it the normal way." "We'll be right back." "Don't touch my elbow!" "That is assault." " That's not cool, bro." " He assaulted me." "When you don't wanna be touched that is assault." " Yeah, that is the legal definition." " I did not assault you." "Yes, you did, super chlamydia." "Don't... but I don't have chlamydia, Kevin." "I don't." " What's going on here?" " This fat bully gave me an s.T.D. And assaulted me." "All right, that's it." "An s." "T.D.?" "You're out of here." "Excuse me." "Oh, oww!" "No no no, that is not cool, man." "I'm an actor!" "What are you thinking?" "I've made a living off this nose for 30 years." "Put those phones away!" "Look what you've do to me." "You know what?" "I don't think you're cut out to play Super Ray." "So you want to buy me a drink?" "Yeah." "But listen, can we get out of Brooklyn?" "It's just not as cool as I thought it was gonna be." "Oh yeah." " Excuse us." " Here's a really really big tip." " I'm okay." " Kevin Bacon's okay." "Kevin Bacon's all right." "I can't believe it." " Jonathan, say something." "It's time to meddle." " Yeah." "You know Lakshmi will be furious with you if you go through with this." "Well, she's already furious thanks to you." "You know something?" "I take back what I said." "You are a nincompoop." "Yeah." "You are a 42 down." "Hey!" "Don't be rude." "You have no idea what I've gone through." "You don't understand what it's like to turn up to work one day and to be told "pffft!" "You're worthless"" "after so many years." "Yeah, excuse me, but I understand." "You know my whole identity is wrapped up in my job, but they won't listen to me anymore." "I'm being pushed aside." "You know, I'm slowly losing my place in the world." "Yes, that's..." "that's what happened to me." "I suggested to the boss that they put a line of poetry on all the business cards and I had great ideas about the schedule, but they just... they didn't care!" "Hey, can I call you Vikrum?" "Vikrum, see, you and I are going through the same thing here." "Why don't you..." "why don't you put the gun down?" "'Cause, um, see, I have a job that I'd like to offer you." " You have a job for me?" " Yes." "See, he told me about you and I need a driver." "And I really..." "I admire poets and I'd very much like to read your work." "So why-why... why don't you just give me the gun?" " You really like poetry?" " He does." " I do." " He does." "Thank you." "It's not even loaded." "My father gave it to me in 1983 because of the cricket riots." "It's been on the bottom of a drawer ever since." " Huh!" " I'm gonna call 911." " No no." " Ma'am, that's not necessary." " Yes!" " No no no." "It's fine, really." "Everything's fine here." "It's just a normal human reaction to stress." " Thank you." " I mean, come on... the gun's not even loaded." "Oh, what?" "I don't want it!" "Let's get out of here!" "Come on!" "All right, nobody call the cops!" "I can get us out of here." "I know a service road the police won't think of."

"My men wouldn't go on Natural Heritage land." "They shot a bear at the dump." "It's allowed." "I've tracked this cub for the last 7 months."

"I can understand there was an unfortunate accident where foreign visitors, maybe unaware of Natural Heritage Land boundaries..." "Oh, you've got to be kidding me." "However, since the bear is clearly in Canadian protectorate jurisdiction," "I'll have to impound the bear." "The fucking bear is ours!" "You're welcome to appeal, of course..." "But then I'll have to file a section 17 Endangered Species Ap which can delay other Customs activities." "They'll leave the bear." "Yeah, I thought so." "That's it?" "That's the penalty for killing an endangered species?" "Vic!" "Really?" "You had to do that?" "Hey!" "You hurt my crew, you hurt me." "Keep your crew in line." "They don't like to be told how to behave in International territory." "Especially by a washed-up cage fighter and barkeep." "Customs officer." "Anyway," "International "opportunity" zone but Canadian protectorate." "Temporarily." "Until the Security Council rules." "Well, who knows what the future holds, right?" "In the meantime, it's my signature that you need to take anything in or out." "I'm the rock this little venture rests on." "So the bears get left alone, okay?" "Let's not be threatening and ridiculous." "If I wanted to, I could shoot everyone here and fly away." "And leave all this?" "That'd be a terrible waste, wouldn't it?" "Yes." "Yes, it would." "You're welcome, by the way." "I don't need help from you." "No, you were doing great." "Armed stand off, Russian boot on your throat..." "You were what?" "In charge?" "You set a precedent!" "Now anyone can shoot an endangered animal on protected land without consequences." "At least I did something about it." "Bit of an overreaction, don't you think?" "The Russian I shot gets to wake up tomorrow." "My cub doesn't." "What're you gonna do with him?" "Put him back so his mother won't keep searching for him." "I'll document the birds and animals that feed on the carcass and then put the bones in storage." "That hide's worth something in Moscow." "They might come back for it." "Yeah, I hope they do." "What is that?" "Don't do that!" "Don't override my "off" like that." "You don't answer your phone if I don't." "And I repeat, what is that?" "It's a drunk." "He needs to sleep it off." "I'm glad your alcohol poisoning business is thriving, Vic, but can you explain to me how it's possible that there's a shooting on the main street of Borealis - overseen by you and I get the information" "from the Russian consulate?" "!" "What do we pay you for?" "Yeah, I was gonna call you about that." "Too late." "I called you." "First up." "Your "shooting"" "was a trank dart." "There is no real harm done." "You're there to prevent confrontations with the internationals!" "The hothead nut job has been put here by you guys!" "Alison Freemont places herself, Vic." "She's an internationally respected biologist with a blog-cast that's seen in virtually every country in the world." "We can't stop her from saying what she says!" "Fine then." "But we can try to control her activities, which is another of the jobs you're not currently doing." "Control her how exactly?" "She shot a Russian in the ass!" "You want peaceful resource exploitation?" "Find a way to get rid of her." "The government of Canada is not in the getting rid of people business." "You should be, everyone else is." "I hate this thing." "Fucking hell." "If you're a geologist, you're dead meat." "Hey, you scared the crap out of me!" "I thought I was alone out here." "Is that so?" "To answer your question, I'm not a geologist, OK?" "I'm an archaeologist." "Really." "You're American and you're on National Heritage Land." "I'm not inclined to believe you." "Really." "I care what you think because...?" "Look, the name's Dan Reardon." "I'm a post doc from Berkeley." "I can show you my I.D." "Keep walking." "Look, I'm up here on a research grant to look for remains of early 18th century Russian habitations." "Christ." "S'posed to be ready yesterday!" "I pay extra for fast fucking turnaround!" "I had to fabricate a part." "It takes longer." "I could order new part from Beijing faster!" "Bring it over by boat!" "Hey, Roger, since you're here, you got a minute?" "I dunno, Taq, do I got a minute?" "Do I got an hour?" "Twelve hour?" "Look, I need a doctor, and you're the closest thing for a thousand miles." "What?" "You got the clap?" "No." "I got a situation, and I need discretion." "Discretion will cost you." "Everything costs me." "Come on." "What, you're coming too?" "Course you are." "What do you think?" "Hmm, ruptured aorta, fractured skull, internal bleeding..." "Yeah, this one falls from a high place." "He was on a plateau." "You ever heard of aeronautics?" "Transportation device that go up in the air?" "You think he was dead before he hit the ground?" "How am I supposed to know this?" "I am psychic suddenly?" "I don't know, I was just asking." "I finished my level 5 first aid." "I don't do autopsy." "Here." "What is this here?" "Who carries a 6-inch spike in his long underwear?" "Now what?" "Try bending him." "This is your plan?" "Really?" "Wait till someone orders the special?" "Somebody airstreamed this putz, whoever he is, which means someone's happy and someone else is probably pissed." "Till we know who's who, and what it is they want..." "Well." "What have we here?" "So many questions." "Ramindar, you've been stationed here what, six, seven months?" "Seven months and four days." "I came with the first drill rigs 4 years ago." "And I can tell you that accidents happen." "Accidents." "Misadventures, roughhousing gone wrong, the occasional malicious score settling." "It's part of the charm of the place." "Goes with last scraps for oil and gas feeding frenzy." "There you go." "A self cleansing system that's best left to do its good work." "We're talking potential murder here." "No!" "You think?" " No." " No way!" "People getting beaten to death on Canadian soil provokes my mandate." "Beaten to death?" "We don't know that, do we?" "No, not really, no." " Look, a corpse found in the Free Zone" " Taq didn't find him in the Free Zone." "Taq found him on Natural Heritage Land, just Canadian territory." "Well, Taq is a little shaky on the exact location of the boundaries." "As an indigenous Inuit person I believe he can..." "Half Inuit." "Only half." "His father was an Irish mix from Kentville or some such place." "People with a notoriously poor sense of direction." " Sorry, Taq." "No offence." " None taken." "All I'm saying is the corpse could've been found in the Free Zone." "Yeah, yeah." "It could've been." "Look, the last thing the government want is public perception that there are murderers on the loose in Borealis." "Guy's pretty battered." "Wasn't that your previous occupation?" "Battering people?" "You can't be serious." "Who is the deceased?" "Either one may answer." " Don't know." "No I.D." " Don't know." "No I.D." "Did either of you kill him?" "Not to the best of our knowledge." "Mr. Quinn, do you agree?" "Not to the best of our knowledge." "No." "Do you agree with Mr. Carboneau that neither of you killed him?" "Are you sure you don't want to separate us so there's no collusion?" " I believe I can recognize collusion." " OK." "For God's sake, Private, that's a human being!" "Be careful." " Sure thing, boss." " Lieutenant." "Why were you trying to hide a corpse?" "We weren't." "We're just trying to keep it cold, lieutenant." "That's what I was gonna say." " Is that collusion?" " I dunno, is it?" "May seem funny now, but when it's read back to you in a courtroom..." "Oh." "Bad news?" "Seems a senior government bureaucrat has decided I should not be detaining you." " Oh, good then." " Wow, look at the time." "It's not over, Vic." "I intend to pursue my investigation." " Excellent." "I'd like my spike back." " If it's anyone's property, it's John Doe's." "I'll keep it on his behalf." "OK, there's some, you know, personal information on there that's not really," "Whoa, whoa, whoa!" "That's a single malt from my own stock." "You can't..." "Sit." "This is a bad place to camp." "I've pitched tents all over the world." "I have bear repellent." "Good camp habits." "Try using bear repellent while Samantha's licking out the inside of your skull." "Twelve-year-old polar bear who just lost her cub to some Russian rig-pigs." "You won't even see her coming." " You can set up in the yard tonight." " Outside?" "You're not getting my bed." "Tomorrow I'll take you to town." " What about the bear?" " I got a hi-freq grid." "You're safe inside 100 meters." "I recognize that from your blog." "Free-Mountain Blog, exposing corporate malfeasance, political ineptitude, media complicity." "Required viewing for my students." "You have students?" "Post doc comes with teaching requirements." "And yes, many of my grad students are older than me." "Anyways, I'm a big fan." "Proud to sleep in your dirt." "Can I offer you a drink later?" "It's really good scotch." "I'm not concerned about the quality of your scotch." "I'm more concerned with who paid for it." "You ever work?" "Yes, I work all the time." "Vikings gave me 2 days off, but it's not worth going anywhere." "So, what happened to your addiction transfer?" "Hog all the weightlessness?" "It's not going so great." "I've got 2 addictions." "Cheers." "You patch things up with Bettina?" "She's still pissed off." "I'm working on it." "Hey, you uh..." " You know this guy?" " He's looking poorly." " Viking?" " Not one I know." "Can you find out for me?" "Free hour of ZipGrav in it for you." "And I know it's not your strong suit, but if you could be discreet?" "I'm your man!" "God." "Alison?" "That her?" "Samantha?" "Look, can I come in?" "That sounds a little unnerving." "Close the door." " Who do you work for, Dan?" " I told you." "USC at Berkeley." "I turn off that barrier in the night and you're all hers." "So who's funding your research?" "Polar Expetroleum?" "Motron?" "Or maybe the Chinese are recruiting abroad now." "OK, it's true." "Polar Ex is a significant contributor to my university, but the work is still legitimately academic." "So what do you do when you find evidence of early Russian habitation?" "Bury it?" "Destroy it?" "Look, I can't do my work without funding." "Polar Ex pays the bills." "You know, just my luck the... the best possible result of my best-funded project ever" "will be to find nothing." "That's the first thing that you've said that sounds like the truth." "Well, welcome to Borealis." "I came here to study wildlife."

"Murdock follows up with a devastating kick to the head!" "This is over." "Carboneau's not mov..." "Oh my god, he's not moving." "Murdock follows up with a devastating kick to the head!" "This is over." "Good morning." "You feel like making time-and-a-half?" "Let me finish my pancakes." "Not me." "Wasyl." "Time and a half and you're paying?" "Why?" "You wanna watch?" "Here's what I need you to do." "Vic!" "Vic" "What are you getting me into?" "I told you to be discreet, didn't I?" "It turns out Road kill's a Norwegian archaeologist." "Thorvald Sigurdsson." "You didn't mention he was tossed from a bird." "Yeah." "Slipped my mind." "The Vikings don't even know yet." "So what happened?" "Come here." "The Norwegians have got their own little history dig going on." "Hoping to prove up claims to get a bigger share of the gas pool." "Thorvald's last seen heading to the Russian dig site, and not seen alive again." " They don't report him missing?" " They think he's still out there... digging, I guess." "They won't be cool to hear the Russkies capped him." "Russians?" "You sure about that?" "I know the pilot of the bird that dropped him." "Now everyone knows I've been asking around." "The Vikings are gonna think I had something to do with it, the Russians are gonna think I ratted them out" "Calm down, all right?" "I don't like this." "I'm not asking no more questions for you." "It's gonna be fine." "Relax." " An hour of ZipGrav coming to ya." " And a fucking drink." "And a drink." "I need to go to the Russian sector dig site." "Wanna come?" "No." "I could use a back up." "I think Alexi might still be pissed at me." "For breaking his nose in 3 places?" "I can't imagine why." " Please?" " I'm not in the bodyguard business." "A favour then, to be repaid at some point in the future." "If you have one." "I, uh..." "I had this weird dream last night." "I'm wandering through the tundra, passing all these Inuit." "But it was like it was some other time." "Sealskin clothes and stuff." "And no one'll look at me." "They'll talk to me, but it's like they're looking at my chest." "You had the dream." "What dream?" "The man with no head dream." "Old story that people tell." "About a thousand years ago they found a man, European of some kind, wandering around the stone house without a head." "We ask him, what are you looking for?" "But he can't answer." "He has no head." "So they leave him there." "Place became known as..." ""House of the Man with No Head."" "You make up this shit just to screw with me, don't you?" "Let's go." "I was hoping to speak to you about a recently discovered dead body." "Foul play suspected." "Suspected by who?" "By me." "You're investigating a murder?" "Who found the body?" " Carboneau." " Vic?" "No, I don't think so." "Taq maybe." "Well, perhaps I could stop by your research station as part of my investigation." "I, uh..." "I often watch your blog and I think we have a lot in common." "Extra room, so I'll move to town for a while." "I should get my gear out of your vehicle." "Dan, have you met Lieutenant Ramindar Singh?" "Where are you going, customs man?" "Are you lost?" "Hey, I like what you've done with your nose." "Very nice." " No, no, no." " You're not in Canada anymore." "Vic here is our first tourist." "We want him to come back." "A tour." "That sounds delightful." "May I?" "For nearly 300 years, this lay undetected." "A Russian explorer presumed lost at sea." "We have most of his remains." "Most?" "All but the head." "It will almost certainly settle our national sovereignty claim in this area." "You've ever heard of a Thorvald Sigurdsson?" "Norwegian archaeologist?" "He fell outta one of your choppers the other day." "I'm sorry the Norwegian decided to jump." "This climate affects some more than others." "The pilot would confirm that suicide, I suppose." "If he were still with us, yes." "He went back to Vladivostok yesterday." "And your interest in this is what?" "Almost none." "I would just like to be reassured that this isn't gonna blossom into some kind of turf war." "Bad for everyone." "No, certainly a dead issue from my perspective." "So your headless fella here, you sure he's Russian?" "Oh yes." "Vladimir Constantinov." "He claimed this territory for the Russian empire in 1741." "This is what brought Mr. Sigurdsson here." "He believed that Constantinov had retraced the steps of some Norwegians from previous centuries who had claimed the territory for themselves." "But based on ironworks we've found, the Vikings Constantinov followed were actually Russians from Novgorod." "So either way, it's a Russian site." "Maybe that's why Sigurdsson was so depressed." "I wonder how your Russian lost his head." "No doubt from asking too many questions." "Any luck?" "If I had, I wouldn't be sat here, would I?" "Well, could be worse." "You could be dumped out of a helicopter on Heritage Land." "How are they taking it?" "Who?" " His mates." " I don't know what you're talking about." "There's no point trying to keep it a secret." "The goofs at the army base know, so it's only a matter of time till everyone finds out." "The Vikings don't know yet, and they're not gonna hear it from me, all right?" "I'm putting it out there on my blog, so you're safe." "Well, I shouldn't, but..." "Oh Christ, that's good." "Research funded single malt." "As predicted, Borealis is incrementally disintegrating into a lawless nest of thugs, rogues, and now maybe murderers." "Norwegian scientist Thorvald Sigurdsson died after falling or being thrown from a Russian helicopter." " Oh no, she didn't." " Why?" "No one knows." " You gotta be kidding me." " But it's clear what's needed is a moratorium on the Free Zone's resource exploitation." "It's a disaster for the local environment, the global environment, for Canada's slender sovereignty claims, and now for the tenuous rule of law." "Alison Freemont." "Questions about the death of Norwegian archaeologist Thorvald Sigurdsson will not go away." " Your spike." "Just the usual." " No problems?" "Vikings aren't going to like that." "Yeah, I don't like it much myself." " Murdering Russians!" " No!" "Sven!" "No." "Don't do it, buddy!" "Easy, easy." "Come on, stop it." "Stop struggling." "Stop." "You guys might wanna get the hell outta here." "Finish your drinks and get the fuck outta here!" "Now!" "Stop, come on." "Come on." "Easy, buddy." "Stop struggling." "Stop it." "You good?" "You good?" "OK, buddy, come on." "Come on." "Someone's going to kill them." "Maybe not me." "But someone." "Hey!" "Hey!" "You got any clue what you've done?" "Oh, don't act like you're trying to preserve the peace in Borealis." " Piece of the action, more likely." " You just started a war!" "Good." "With any luck, the League of Nations will show up, stop the drilling, and send you idiots home." "You gotta be kidding me." "Look, are you nuts?" "You don't go after the Russians alone!" "You have pissed off some dangerous people!" "Do you not get this?" "Oh, I get it." "I just happen to think you're all equally dangerous and oblivious." "Listen to me." "These people answer to no one, okay?" "They don't care that you're famous and loved by millions, all right?" "They will kill you in your sleep and not ever think about it again." "Anton intends to take over Borealis." "You wanna fight him, fine." "Fight him smart." "Nothing I said on my blog was untrue." "Nothing." "I'm not saying it was untrue." "I'm saying it was indiscreet." "Now we have a huge problem, and you're right in the middle of it." "Wake the hell up, OK!" " Everyone's mad at me." " Really?" "I wonder why." "You spewed everything you know to Alison Freemont, the one person who's most likely to tell ten billion people worldwide." "Stuff you were supposed to keep quiet for me!" "She already knew!" "Most of it anyway." "The Vikings are mad, the Russians are mad, you're mad..." "I can't go back to the rigs till things calm down." "I need a room." "Please." "You got me into this." "You owe me that much." "Give me 7." "The Danes kinda trashed it, but it's empty." "You're a good man, Vic." "I won't forget this." "That from the Russian dig?" "What's it to you?" "If you wanna know where it came from, foundry marks might tell you more." "I have a bit of background in this kind of thing." "Really." "I know you don't like coming to town." "Not that I blame you." "Not the sort of community I'd hoped to find when I was posted here." "It's not a community, Ramindar, it's a human refuse pile." "What exactly can I do for you?" "Your rather public accusation of criminal activity in Borealis leads me to believe that you know more about the situation than you are sharing." " And...?" " And I think you should tell me what you know about the murder of Thorvald Sigurdsson." "I have been doing some investigating myself." "In fact, I want you to look at something." "You want me to look at your stapler?" "No, I gotta go." "Not my..." "Wait!" "I actually did have a piece of evidence." "I.." "Wasyl!" "Okay." "Here's the match I was looking for." "It was forged in the Holmgard ironworks, now the Russian city of Novgorod, between 1000 and 1100 AD." "So it really is a Russian spike." "Amazing." " Yes and no." "Holmgard was a Viking town, settled on land that in later times was absorbed by the Russian empire." "Not made by people of, shall we say, Russian descent." "So how did it get here?" "It wasn't nailed in a Russian ship." "It came in somebody's pocket." "Last month, there was a robbery in a museum in Oslo where Thorvald Sigurdsson worked." "So you can prove that it's stolen." "No." "No, it'd be pretty tough, I mean, it takes a lot of these things to make a ship." "Once it's documented in the archaeological site, it's legitimate." "Ok, how many spikes were stolen?" "Six." "Vic!" "Vic, you have to come right away!" "Come, please!" "What?" " Which one next?" " Anti immune RNA blocker." "Yellow." "Yellow!" "Have you ever seen this work?" "The nano beavers crave disruption in the tissue." "If he can be revived, they'll do it." " He was dead Ok." " Hold that." " Put that there." " He's breathing." "Whoever did this thought it'd be cute to snuff him in the ZipGrav, but it actually kept him from bleeding out." "His brain might be shot, but I guess we'll find out." "It was the Russians did this." "Alexi and Nicolai." "I saw them hanging around here." "Keep the pressure on." "We need to talk." "I find myself needing to remind my foreign guests of our little Canadian sovereignty issue." "Remember?" "I also really don't appreciate finding my friends semi murdered on my premises." "Clive violated the terms of his agreement." "Sensitive information is of little value if it's shared indiscriminately." " And Sigurdsson?" " He got greedy." "Used the threat of "going public" as his leverage." "Mistaking this as public." "You keep mistaking this as Russian." "Please, Vic." "I know you like to think of this as Canadian territory, but I'm not paid to embrace others' delusions." "You have a reputation for adapting to new circumstances." "Feel free to start anytime." "And if I don't?" "You end up like Clive." "I'm sorry to be blunt, but this is the world we live in." "You and I can work together, or you can leave." "These are your options." "No." "No," "I'm not going anywhere." "This is my place." "I built it." "I own it." "It's mine." "And you are here because I allow you to stay." "Understood?" "Now where's your other boy?" "Hm?" "The one who helped slit my friend's throat." "I don't think I'll tell you." "You know what, it's okay." "I'll wait." "Sooner or later, everybody comes to Vic's." "Russians." "Shit." "I don't know why I care about him so much." "He's just trouble all the time." "I never saw anybody dead come back." "How did you learn to do that?" "I had a good cutman." "He gave me his kit when he left the business." "Showed me how to use the nano-beavers." "Did you ever kill a man when you were a famous fighter in Montreal?" "No." "Did someone kill you?" "And you came back?" "Like Clive?" "Sometimes I see your hand and it shakes a little." "Yeah, well, there you go." "Let me know if he wakes up." "Why do you stay in this shit hole?" "You have the money to get out." "You have the citizenship to go where you want." "Why do you stay here?" "I'm not sure what to do with this." "Nicolai." "He went back for the cub." " You did this?" " Don't be an idiot." " Where's his head?" " Found some skull fragments, bits of hair, but I didn't try to pick them all up." "I'm guessing Samantha, you know... helped herself." "Well." "We could put him in the freezer, I guess." "So, did I dream I was the headless Russian, or was I the one without the head?" "Beats me." "Your dream." "Voilà!" "Nice." "My mom was a soapstone carver." "Is that so?" "I did not know that." "Hey!" " Good morning." " Morning." "There was an explosion last night at the dig site." "Really?" "You know, those little compressed heaters are great unless they leak." "The solar ones are much safer, don't you think, Taq?" "Yeah." "Not as warm, though." " True." " You know, we inspected the debris very carefully, but for some reason the only thing we could not find evidence of were the ship's nails we discovered." "You'd think a fragment of one of them would remain." "You'd think." "Well, I'm almost certain they'll turn up somewhere." "We can only hope." "Oh, I don't know if you've heard." "The League of Nations has appointed a liaison officer to Borealis." "Svetlana Virchou." "New neighbours." "Good." "Yeah, I wondered when they were gonna move in." "I suppose all the recent commotion has attracted the League's attention and they saw the need to put an international authority figure here on the ground." "Russian, by chance?" "I don't know." "You'll have to ask her." "This man should be dead." "He was." "You glued this sucker hooligan back together for what reason?" "He was bleeding on my floor." "What Anton causes to be dead, you bring back to life at your own peril." "He going to walk and talk again or what?" "If you're lucky, he will finish dying." "If he lives, he could be a human turnip." "Thank God you're not a real doctor." "I'll spend my fee at your bar." "Tell Darion to start a new chit." "No, I can't use Xanadu, it's a proper noun." " Taq, what are you doing?" " I'm playing Scrabble." "Hey, do you know a word that starts with X?" "Well, this should be interesting." "Vic Carboneau." "Customs official." "I also own this place." "Svetlana Virchou," "Special Envoy from the League of Nations." " I know." "Can I get you a drink?" " Not at ten a.m." "It's the Arctic." "Day and night aren't the same thing here." "I wanted to introduce myself because I know what an influential figure you are, here in Borealis." " Really." " Customs official, air-strip owner, hotelier, supplier of goods to the international interests." " Here you go, Vic." " Only legal ones, of course." "Of course." "I know, for example, you provide a setting for lonely young rig workers... to meet..." "Shall we say new friends?" " I'm sentimental that way..." " You sell them refreshments, introduce them to games of chance..." "Anything to make their time here more pleasant." "You wouldn't think it, but you and I have a lot in common." " Do tell." " You need harmony in the community and a balance of political power to keep your philanthropic enterprises functioning." "And so do I." "Exploiting the Earth's last major oil and gas field is a competitive business." "It can lead to political tension." " I hate political tension." " We all do." "You may find this hard to believe, but certain people have tried to get me to leave my useful work here." " Shocking!" " I know." "Luckily, I am not easily moved." "Lucky for everyone." "Yes, I think we'll turn out to be great friends, you and I." "I do hope so." "In the meantime, let me know if there's anything you need for your new quarters." "Furnishings, restocked bar, small white envelopes with..." "whatever you like." "That won't be necessary." "I've come with all the necessities of life." "What did she want?" "Nothing." "She wants to be friends." "Why would she want to be friends with you?" "Why would anyone want to be friends with you, for that matter?" "Exactly." " What's the story here?" " Stuff came in for the Danes." "Let's see what we got." "Mudcat parts, mother boards, frak shots, canned herring." "Five cases of Aquavit." "Four." "Four cases of Aquavit." "Four cases of Aquavit." "What the hell are you doing?" "Ah, Bettina." "I said, what are you doing?" "." "My man here lost his scan key.." "If you touch Clive again, somebody finishes you!" "Why are you telling me my business?" "Do I tell you yours?" "Do I say..." "A Chinese likes it this way, a Norwegian like that?" "No, I don't." "If Vic catches you here, you are dead men, both of you!" "Watch someone doesn't boil you in a pot." "What's going on here?" "I caught them try to break in." "They're going after Clive again." "This bitch is hysterical." "Watch your mouth." "You don't touch Anton." "I don't care if the whore is your wife." "Stop!" "Stop!" "Wasyl, what the hell are you doing?" "They were going to attack Clive, Bettina caught them." "Going to?" "Your private here is a mind reader?" "Wasyl?" "They were disrespecting Bettina." "So you punched him?" "Please, I'm sorry." "I apologize for my private's behavior" "That is not good enough." " Now he's all offended..." " Shut up." "Private Demchuk's actions are inexcusable and" "He sucker punched me!" "I'm launching a formal complaint with the League of Nations." "I was assaulted by a drunk Canadian soldier." "I want satisfaction." "You deserved it, you little twat." "Private!" "Be quiet!" "You fight me fair, that's something else." "Anytime." "You have every right to launch an official complaint, but I would ask that in everyone's interest, you please accept an apology..." "I'm not apologizing to you." "No way!" "He should be apologizing to Bettina." "Gentlemen, if the issue is that the punch wasn't fair, then make it a fair fight." "You bet." "I'll fight this little garden gnome anytime." "No, no." "I can't take responsibility if your man gets injured." "We'll make them sign off." "Cage fight." "It'll good for the town, people like a little distraction..." "No." "He's a soldier in my command." "If he injures a civilian..." "It's either this or the L.O.N." "Looks like you need lubricant." "I've got aquavit." "There are a dozen ways to tell me you're coming." "Don't just show up." " I'm old fashioned." " No, you're not." "You're strategic." "Drink?" "Oh, another gift to customs?" "Sometimes, I don't understand my own popularity." "You got glasses?" "So, you met the new Special Liaison from the League of Nations?" "Yeah, we've met." "It's going to be a bright new day for some of us." "She follows my blog, she's sensitive to environmental issues." "You didn't fail to notice those heavily armed lugs in red berets, did you?" "No more commercial incursion into Natural Heritage Lands, no more drunk hunters shooting the place up." "And you trust her?" "More than the idiot crowd of slobbering greed heads I'm usually surrounded by." "Actually, you're surrounded by marmots, that aren't even indigenous." "All right, you've made a new friend, good for you." "And not so good for you." "Thanks for the drink, or maybe I should thank the Danes." "Now, I've got work to do." "I was..." "Zip it up on your way out." "Yeah, okay." "I brought you some food." "You need to eat something." "Okay, some porridge." "Not too hot." "Come." "Here, come on." "Please." "Chew." "Good." "You're so lucky." "Not many men come back from being dead as you." "Stay." "I told Vic you were going to be okay." "Here, come on." "Okay, so what were you thinking?" "Drunk on duty, undisciplined, slovenly." "You're making us look like idiots." "Lieutenant Singh?" "I am the de facto authority here but, of course, with the international free zone definition phrased as loosely as it is..." "I see the position you're in, yes." "I can investigate, but not arrest, inquire, but not prosecute." "It's maddening." "Someone with your obvious talents... it's a waste." "Do you know what our biggest problem is here?" "Vic Carboneau." "He has some kind of government protection, otherwise I would have had him arrested long ago." "Whatever goes wrong in Borealis, he's usually at the root of it." "In what way?" "Graft, corruption, illegal activities of all kinds." "The Russians believe he stole some artifacts from their archeological site recently, some ships' nails." "The list goes on and on..." "A League of Nations presence in Borealis can be a terrific resource for you, Ramindar." "We have common goals, order and public safety." "If we work as a team," "I see no reason why a posting like this couldn't turn into a career win for you." " More tea?" " Please." "Svetlana Virchou is clean." "No affiliations, no skeletons in the closet..." "Swiss or Austrian possibly... raised in Argentina by diplomat parents." "I rolled out the welcome carpet, there was no uptake." "Someone else has to be paying her." "You've got a dark and suspicious turn of mind, Vic." "I learned it from you, ma'am." "Maybe she's actually what she says she is." "No, no." "Everybody comes to Borealis to make money, everybody!" "And I got no problem with that." "I just wanna how she plans to do it and how much it's going to cost me." "This is not about your hobbies or side deals." "L.O.N. presence in Borealis represents a serious threat to our Arctic sovereignty." "Look, can't you just make an official complaint and have her replaced with someone you own?" "You're all we have up there, so try not to get killed or arrested or otherwise incapacitated, alright?" "Volkov is pushing the L.O.N. hard." "If the Russians get the ruling they want, they'll have a stranglehold on the world's oil supply." "What is that sound?" "I don't know." "What the fuck is going on?" "What is he on?" "I don't know, but I'm not gonna ask him." "You are a true humanitarian, Taq." " He'll hurt himself!" " Somebody better do something." "Come on, buddy." "It's all right, it's Vic!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey!" " I could use some help, here." " I think you're doing great." "What are you on?" "You're breaking my shit!" "Fuck that!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "That's right." "What are you, nailed down or something?" "What's going on here?" "Nothing." "Bataar is normally a pretty happy drunk, especially on pay day." "Any idea what's actually in his system?" "Blood reads clean." "I don't know." "Maybe..." "Maybe the ghost-meth-pogo." "I've heard about "meth -pogo"." "What's with the "ghost"?" "Ghost, it masks itself in the blood for the first couple days." "You can only find it in trace elements after the full metabolism." "This is how the rig-pigs beat the screen." "Is he gonna be any calmer when he wakes up?" " Depends on how much he took." " I'll be outside." "Ghost -meth is an internationally banned substance." "Its presence here should be very troubling to you in your capacity as customs officer." "It is." "Deeply." "I would hate to find out he got it from you." "I would hate for you to find that out too." "You have a quick temper, Mr. Carboneau." "I found it useful in my previous occupation." "But those days are over." "Aren't they?" "I think she likes you." "How should I set the odds?" "Bunch of guys want in on this." "What're you talking about?" "Wasyl against the new Russian in the cage." "Five to one is generous..." "Wasyl is a heavy favourite." "Wasyl?" "Why the hell doesn't anybody tell me anything around here?" "What new Russian?" "Sergei something or another." "Sergei?" "Hello, Anton." "You're new here, right?" "I'm Vic Carboneau." "I own this place." "Care to join us, Vic?" "There's a new drug in town, Anton." "Really?" "And because Sergei here is new, he may not know the rules about drugs in Borealis." "We love them." "Recreational whatever, booze of all kinds, it's all good fun." "I don't even take a piece of the action, I just collect a small tax for the government of Canada, that's it." "Except for drugs that cause people to go berserk on themselves or others." "That's a non starter around here." "Like the fucking crap the Mongolian took." "We don't take that." "Drugs like this are... a destabilizing influence." "The new L.O.N. presence might be signaling a certain lack of confidence in customs enforcement." "Could be a whole new set of rules on the horizon." "L.O.N. can have any rules they want." "I still have mine." "I understand you're getting in the cage with Wasyl." "He sucker punched me." "We'll see how tough he is in a fair fight." "I dunno, a grain fed prairie farm boy?" "Dumb as a sack of hammers but fucking tough." "I have been in one or two farms in my life as well." "What, are you living here now?" "Clive seems to do better when I'm around." "All right." "Notining wrong with his appetite." "Well, I have to feed him, but yeah, he's eating good." "His hands work better now." "He likes to put them here, like this." "You sure he's not conscious?" "Well, he's sort of half here and half not, I don't know." "Do you think he'll ever be right again?" "Too soon to know." "Listen, do you think it's weird" "Anton and Sergei tried to get in the back way?" "And just then, Wasyl shows up?" "Wasyl follows me like a puppy." "You know that." "Yeah, everyone knows that." "Even Anton." "They're looking for you everywhere." "The Mongolian "awaked"." "Oh, shit!" "Bataar!" "Hey, buddy." "Can you tell me what you took?" "Needle?" "Pill?" "Pill." "Okay." "What color was it?" "Blue?" "Like his pants?" "Purple?" "Purple." "Purple." "A purple pill." "Okay." "Can you take him back to the Chinese sector and see if you can keep him home for awhile?" "I'll do my best." "I'm going to need some help." "Hello, Vic." "So, just a review:" "you have a Chinese rig worker..." " Mongolian." " High on a banned recreational drug..." " Which he did not get from me." " ...but which he was enjoying in your ZipGrav." "I won't even get into the book-making, the pilfering of goods held in trust by customs." "The Danes complained to me about missing Aquavit." " I thought you weren't going to get into it." " You think nothing can happen to you, but you're wrong." "Borealis is about to change for the better and that is not good news for you." "Let me guess," "Svetlana Virchou is about to become your new best friend, right?" "If the L.O.N. puts its security muscle behind the Canadian authority on the ground..." " Meaning you." " whatever protection you've been getting from Ottawa is going to melt away like the last iceberg." "Are you really this stupid?" "You actually think L.O.N. wants to protect Canadian sovereignty?" "L.O.N. is about order and good government and so am I." "L.O.N. is about taking control of a place and selling it off to the highest bidder." "Suez, Panama, Borneo, Madagascar," "Nepal..." "In case you haven't noticed, we are sitting on the last oil and gas reserve on the planet." "You think they don't want a piece of that?" "You're about to become Svetlana Virchou's valet." "You heard it here first, friend." "I brought you something." "I used to have a cat who brought me presents like that." "Yellow breasted meadow lark." "Given the plumage, I'm guessing it's a male." "Yeah." "Never documented this far north." "That's crazy." "You know, the ancient Romans believed that flights of birds were a portent." " Of what?" " That's the question isn't it?" "I have tea or Aquavit." " Tea please." " Come on." "You seem more interested in biology than archeology." "Yeah." "I guess I don't really draw a rigid line." "I'm up here looking for human-specific sites, but it's all environment, the living and the dead." "Even the oil's transformed vegetation and dinosaurs." "And yet you never seem to find anything." "True." "I guess I'm not very good." "Really, it's just an excuse to wander around and camp out." "Anyways, I do find some things." "Like this Arctic fox den." "It's hidden along the Sirmlik Ridge." "Oh my God..." "Don't show this to anyone in town." "No, of course not." "You never know with some of those idiots." "Maybe with the L.O.N. around, we can finally start keeping animals like this alive." "Hoshi, I need some help." "I'm trying to run a guy:" "Russian;" "Sergei Krutinulov;" "born 2011, Volgograd." "Supposedly graduated as a mechanical engineer, but based on his facial scars, unless he's beating himself daily with a slide rule, there ain't no way he's an engineer." "I'm going to send you the link." "At your convenience." "Please." "Your most humble servant..." "Victor." "Let me guess:" "Ms. Virchou requests the pleasure of my company." "You have got some really nice stuff in here." " Thank you." " I really like these chairs." "Nice!" "Lightweight, shiny, stackable..." "Would look great in my bar." "So, bad news, Vic:" "I've been alerted that certain archeological material, specifically thousand-year-old ship spikes, were recently stolen from a Russian dig site." "No!" "I've been told they may have been confiscated by customs." "I was told you were second runner up in Miss Teen Geneva 2029." "Well, maybe we were both misinformed." "Did Anton tell you I took those spikes?" "I'm not big on blaming." "If the Russians get their property back, there'll be no reason to pursue the matter further." "If the Russians get their property back, they'll use it to consolidate their sovereignty claim on the whole territory." "I don't care if they want to build a new ship and sail it back to Russia... not really the point, is it?" "I have to say, I am struggling to understand the point as it relates to you." " Good works and harmony, Vic." " Good works and harmony..." "Don't do it." "Bataar, don't do it!" "Bataar!" "Can you send the body back to the family?" "No." "I'll take him out to the dump for the bears." "Don't give me that fucking look." "It's called the casting out ceremony." "The Mongols, they believe their last virtuous act is to give their body to the animals." "You people don't know anything." " You should've kept him at home." " You try and keep him at home!" "Mongols, they do what they want." "Look, he got the side-effects, okay?" "That's why he came back here, to get the son of a bitch who gave it to him." "Bad choice." " You see it?" " One kick." "Bullet to the brain would have been slower." "Pace is a dead man." "Profile's cooked up." "Sergei Krutinulov was kicked off the Russian army's special forces in 2038." "He went in the fight circuit in South-East Asia under the name Ivan Fiorin." "Found a new career in corporate special assignments." "What kind of assignments?" "The kind where someone ends up dead somewhere in the world." "What's he doing in Borealis?" "He didn't come for Bataar." "Or Wasyl, I'm guessing." "The more your town appears out of control, the better case the L.O.N. has to take over." "The Russians have to believe that's good for them." "This is about the spikes." "They killed a Norwegian and now a Mongolian for those spikes." "They won't stop now." "Be careful!" "You wanna be the big dog around here?" "Arrest the Russian!" "He killed an unarmed Mongolian in the middle of the street!" "In self defense." "Who do you think brought in the ghost meth?" " You." " Raminder, why the hell would I bring that shit into my bar?" "You think I want people chewing on my furniture," " clawing holes in my walls?" " So why would anyone sell it?" "To make us all look bad, so the dragon lady can swoop in and pretend to fix it all after we're gone." " You're paranoid." " Oh, for fuck's sakes." "Wasyl!" "Listen to me:" "Sergei killed Bataar with a single blow in a fraction of a second." "Is that how you want to die, huh?" "Pulling up your jock strap as you step into the ring?" "Someone's got to show these Russians whose country they're screwing with." "If we just roll over, what's the point?" "Why even put the uniform on?" "There's brave and there's just plain stupid." "Which one are you going to be, Wasyl?" "I'm not chickening out." "Then you're going to die." "You know that, right?" "Look, I'm not backing down." "We're doing enough of that around here already." "It's not why I signed up." "What happened here?" " Bear broke into it last night." " In the middle of town?" "Yep." "You might want to keep that in mind next time you're strolling around after dark." "Such magnificent creatures." "It's criminal they're reduced to this." "Stealing my expensive and hard earned meat supply?" "Yes." "Criminal." "Even the wildlife gets a piece of the action in Borealis." "Any idea how cynical you sound, Vic?" "Some." "I got no problem with people protecting their turf." "I get it." "I just don't understand what it is you're trying to protect." " The peace." " Really?" " Then arrest Sergei." " It was self-defense." "No." "Not for Bataar, for Wasyl." "For the crime that's about to be committed." "Two men who sign waivers willingly step into a cage." "You know something about this." "It's not my place to stop it." "Fine." "Then do it to stop the ghost meth." "Sergei's the one who brought it in." "Neither one of us can prove that and even if we could, once I start down the road of arresting people for bringing in drugs... you see how this ends badly for me and probably you too?" "Excellent point." "Stolen Russian artifacts on the other hand..." "I don't know why you like Anton's money better than you like mine." "You see the world as black and white." "Grey and darker grey." "Life is a multicolored fabric, Vic." "Don't assume I hold only one viewpoint at a time." "Vic, they're tearing up your place!" " Who is?" " Her guys!" "You don't make it easy to stay friends with you, lady." "You hit me with that and you'll miss your buddy's funeral, I'm not kidding." "You up on territorial homeowners' rights?" "I'm allowed to kill anything that comes unwelcome through that door." "There are two ways to leave this room, you pick." "Okay." "I'm glad everyone is having a nice time, screwing in my hotel, eating my food, drinking my booze." "But the free ride is over." "Yeah, I'm starting to feel a little bit better, Vic." "No shit." "Bettina was just helping me relearn certain sensations." " I think he's almost back to normal." " Why is that my business?" "Why is it your business, for that matter?" "Why shouldn't I help him?" "He's got a second chance to live, who wouldn't want that?" "You're alive enough to do this, you're alive enough to get a job and pay your way." "Call off your man." "And what have you done for me lately?" "Call him off or you and I are going to have a very big problem." "You and I, we already have a problem." "You stole archeological materials that are very important to me." " I don't have your spikes." " Spare me." "We are grown men, are we not?" "We can speak plainly." "I know who Sergei is." "Then you know the loudmouth Canadian soldier will surely die if he sets foot in that cage." "Bring me my spikes, maybe he lives." "These are my terms." " You shouldn't count on my affection for that half wit Canadian soldier..." "Whatever you say, Vic." "So you're just gonna let Sergei kill Wasyl?" "Why is this my problem?" "I came up here to make some money and get the hell back down south..." "It's not my job to look after all these half-wits and invalids, alright?" "That's how I felt when you arrived." "I've got a business to run." "Shipping manifests to forge, I don't have time for this." "Yes, you're a busy, busy man, I know." "You think Anton would pull Sergei off if he got the spikes?" "That's what he says." "Doesn't really matter if the Russians run the place." "Just another set of white guys." "You all kind of look alike, you know that?" "Thanks." "You could cut a deal with Anton." "They think they can come in here and take something I built with my own two hands." "And my two hands." " Okay." " And somewhere in there there were Sikh hands." "The point is," "Borealis is mine." "At least, this part of it, and I'm not giving it up." "Plus, he's using Wasyl to get to me." "I hate that." "Good thing that's not working." "Clive." "Clive?" "Hey." "Okay." "It's okay." "I was just walking and then..." "I don't know how to describe it..." "It was like my brain exploding." "Tiny pieces of me flying up and spreading out until I'm so thin..." "Like I'm not here anymore, like I'm just... gone." "Do you know what I mean?" " Yeah." " And then suddenly," "I'm back here and there's this huge weight on me, and I'm trying to keep myself together, to stop myself from flying apart again but it feels impossible..." "Seems like when you die, not all of you gets to come back." "Who made that rule?" "I got nowhere to go, Vic." "The rigs won't take me; the Russians still want me dead." "Meanwhile, I'm walking around like I'm half here with the rest of me following behind like a cloud of fucking mosquitoes." "I'm not so sure death was a bad thing, man." "You touch me and I'll stamp that beret down your throat." "It's all right." "It's all right." "Come inside, please." "Arctic fox, killed on natural heritage land." "There are only six breeding pairs in Scandinavia, maybe only thirty in North America." "Who did this?" "I don't read Cyrillic." "But maybe you do." "Why would Russians shoot a fox and leave a valuable pelt behind?" "It's a message for me." "A threat, because I outed them on my blog." "You said things are going to be different." "So what are you going to do about this?" "A shell casing is not conclusive proof, but whoever did this will be aggressively," "Chatted with?" "The next foreign poacher I see will be going home in a bag." "Alison, I need more time." "You're just adding to the noise." " Dan, give me that." " No." "I'm not going to let that little Russian kill somebody else." "Don't interfere in this, Dan." "I'm warning you." "I know what happened, okay?" "I saw the pictures you posted." "But you can't do this alone." "Who else is going to stop them?" "You?" "Those idiots at the army base?" "I don't know, but it's not going to happen like this." "Not today." "Come on." "Let's go for a walk." " Alison's taking it pretty hard." " I don't blame her." "She'll be next if she doesn't leave this alone." "Need to have a rocket while fighting the new Russian these days." "They must be pretty confident over their territorial claim." "They control the last oil, then the last water, then the last food." "It's gonna get ugly for the rest of us." "If a person had some archeological items that needed to find their way back to the original owners, a particular museum in Norway..." "Yes." "How would that person guarantee delivery?" "That person would give them to me." "Is that a theoretical question or a practical one?" "Not sure yet." " Hey, buddy." " Hey, Vic." "Listen, I've been studying your last fight, and I figured out where you made your mistake." "Is that so?" "Good for you." " How do you feel?" " I'm ready." " Are you?" " Yeah." "He's tougher than what I first thought, but" "I can handle myself too." "You think I'm afraid of him." "I'm not." "I know." "So what was my mistake?" "Well, when you went for the takedown..." "Please, show me." "You went for a double when you should've just went for a single." "Sorry." "Sit up and sit still." " It's dislocated." " Sit up and sit still." "Trust me." "Bite this." "Bite, bite." "I'm gonna count to three, okay?" "One..." "You're gonna want a bunch of analgesics and some anti inflams." "There's going to be ligament damage but you should be okay in 4 to 6 weeks." "At least you're alive." "What about the fight?" " It's off." " Damn it." "Wasyl's out." "I'm in." "And this solves my problem, how?" "Who said I'm solving your problem?" "Wasyl's injured, he can't fight." "I'm his second." "You haven't been in the cage in a long time, Vic." "Last time didn't end well..." "A lot of punishment to the head over the years." "My understanding is it wouldn't take much..." "To what?" "Kill me again?" "I guess we'll find out." "You're a businessman, like me." "Why should you die over this small thing, these old spikes?" "Let's negotiate." "You have nothing I want." "Just make sure he doesn't get any head shots in." "I'll write a note to myself." "I'm just curious, given that he's younger, stronger, faster and possibly more skilled than you what makes you think you're going to survive this fight?" "If you get killed, it'll be a great inconvenience to me personally." "Yeah, well... if I don't make it, feel free to shoot him." "What do you want?" "If all the good men get killed around here, only the bad idiots are left." "What's going to happen to me?" "Another vote of confidence." "You should be in bed, you have to sleep." "Come." "Come on, Vic!" " No, no." " No, it's not for sex, you dumbass." "It's because I'm nervous and I don't like to be alone." "No sex." "Just sleep." "I saw you once, back in Montreal." "This guy took me to one of your fights." "We had good seats, he was a high roller." "And I had these beautiful white boots back then, and when I went home, I was taking them off and I noticed these little spots of blood on them." "So I threw them out." "Go ahead." "Can I talk to him?" "Listen, I just wanted to come by and wish you good luck today." "If there's anything I can do..." "Like what?" "Whatever... that package you wanted delivered." "We'll talk after the fight." "Sure, okay, it's just that..." "What?" "I might be dead after the fight?" "No, well... but if something happens, then..." "Get out." "Okay." "Is it time?" "I want to put on the record at this point that Mr. Krutinulov has agreed to withdraw his complaint against private Demchuck and agrees not to press charges, providing the missing items are returned to the Russian archeological site." "Mr. Carboneau, do you understand what's being offered here?" "Yes." "And you choose of your own free will to compete in this cage fight as a second for the injured Canadian soldier Wasyl Demchuk?" "Yes." "Mr. Krutinulov." "You can do it, Vic." "Kill this idiot!" "Go for his head." "Get him, Vic." "Come on, Vic!" "Pound him!" "Come on, Vic!" "Get him!" "Come on, Vic!" "Come on!" "Come on, Vic!" "Get him!" "Vic!" "It doesn't end like this." "Come on, Vic!" "Come on, Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Vic!" "Watch out!" "Open the gate." "You're never going to get those spikes." "Synch corrections by Vegemite."

"And after hundreds of years of private worship, several great schisms, and thousands of people martyring themselves, it became a focused belief system... with a name." "[Leanne] Hey!" "We got a belief system." "We believe in kindness and acceptance." "And... finding the peace within that can then radiate out into the world and create change." "And through silent meditation, we address the roar of pain and loneliness and tame it." "And through reflection, we can see nothingness... and in nothingness, we find clarity... we have faith." "In what..." "Her?" "There's no body of the principles." "They're too big to be contained." "So, you're atheists." "I ain't no fucking..." "I don't think you're ready to understand." "Look, sitting around meditating doesn't make you a religion." "It makes you a meditation club." "Ooh. "Meditation Club." that's not a bad name for us." "Okay, this one needs to be our first martyr."

"Your son is fucking 15 years old, and there is no fucking Easter Bunny." "And if you think that my son killed the fake-ass rabbit, then you're living in a fucking fantasy." "Who needs a knife?" "She'll die from eating today's lunch." "[Blanca speaking Spanish]" "Gin." "[speaking Russian]" "[Coates] Looks like a nice one." "Huh?" "The sun's coming out, I mean." "And I got a shitload of red velvets back at the shop about to go stale." "Oh, yeah?" "So what?" "I know, I know." "A lot of red velvet haters out there all of a sudden." "Some serious backlash." "But I know some hungry ducks who might enjoy 'em." "One hungry duck in particular." " I mean you." " Yeah, I got it." "I got it." " What's up your ass?" " Nothing." "Nothing whatsoever, Officer Coates." "I'm just standing here, doing my job, being a professional prisoner." "So, I suggest you do your job and guard me professional-like." "[exhales into hand] [man speaking indistinctly on walkie-talkie]" " Yo, what'd I miss?" " Yo, they're saying Judy's going down." "[Taystee] Yeah, she is." "I've heard that she steals her recipes." "I've heard she has a husband and a lover, and they all live in the same house." "[gasps] She cheats on Bill?" "Well, is it cheating if they all live together?" "Wait, do they all sleep in the same bed?" "Like, the three of them?" "See, I don't believe it." "If that lady were getting it on the regular with two dudes, she would not be sweating a rosemary garnish." " [chuckles]" " You never know." "Yo, right on time!" "Um, actually, I'm here for them." "First, she joins the Church o' Crazy Eyes, now this?" "Whatever makes her happy." " God bless." " Mmm." "Or Norma bless, I guess." "[Leanne] So, as I was saying... we need to come up with a list of commandments so that they know we're for real." "Thou shalt not snort thy neighbor's heroin." ""Covet." It's "covet."" "You can do what you want with it." "I'm gonna snort it." "I'm serious, you guys." "We need to set the rules." "[Brook] For me, it's less about, like, rules, and more what happens when I look at Norma." "Oh, yeah, what's that about?" "I mean, it's, um... it's, like, less than magic, but more than a hug." "[Brook] The way I see it... it's the armor you put on every day." "The armor that... that it takes to get through every day." "It gets heavier and heavier as you live your life, you know?" "Especially in here." "But when you look at Norma... you can take that armor off... because it's safe." "You're safe." "And... you're crying... because it feels... so good to take that armor off." "And you realize how tall you can be without it... how light." "Yeah... yeah, what she said." "I mean, maybe what's so special about this... whatever... is that there aren't any rules..." " Yeah." " You know?" "I've always had trouble with organized religion, anyway." "And honestly, I think the more this becomes a capital "R" religion, the less time we seem to get with Norma." "Yeah, and we're all here to be with Norma, right?" "That's fine, but we still need to deal with the rest of the world and how they see us." "And when you come in late and you call it a fucking club, you make us all look like a joke." "We need to know who we are, or they'll think we're a joke." "I know who I am." "I'm someone who's sometimes late." "Look, Soso, I know not committing is, like, your thing." "You couldn't commit to saving the world." "You couldn't commit to eating pussy." "You couldn't even commit to being 100% Asian." "So, why don't you go off and not commit somewhere else?" "Nobody wants you here, anyways." "Okay, y'all are illegally congregating here." "This ain't the meeting house." "And for a gang who likes quiet time, y'all are hella noisy." "So, either get out, or I'm calling the po-pos." "[whispering] This is Judy time." "[Janae] Turn that shit up." "That's right, P. Come to the light." "I deeply regret some of the financial choices I have made in the recent past." "I was not fully aware of the decisions that my advisers were..." " Is it cool if I stay and watch, too?" " Get your ass up, now!" "I couldn't stand the heat, but I'm afraid I didn't get out of the kitchen in time to recognize the misappropriation that was taking place." "I guess I had my head in the oven." "Uh, well, no..." "Um..." "Maybe that was a poor choice." "We're getting kicked out of everywhere." "We need to get legit." "There was a vein in your neck that was like... [roars]" "It was rad." "Yeah, but weren't you kind of hard on hippie chick?" "Some people aren't cut out for believing." "[speaking Pennsylvania Dutch] I baptize you, my sister," "Leanne Lemmle Taylor, in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit." "You must strengthen the church and not tear it down." "Be strong against the world's ways." "[speaking English] If it's all right, can I say a few quick words?" "And I mean quick." "I know today is about way more than me." "I only wanted to say I'm glad that, as Amish, we get to choose our baptism." "I didn't know what I wanted until a couple of months ago, and I wanna thank my parents for having me back with open arms." "I had a good time in the English world, I'm not gonna lie." " I mean, who doesn't like zippers, right?" " [scattered laughter] [speaking Pennsylvania Dutch] Wrap it up, Leanne." "[speaking English] Sorry, Dad." "Anyway... it was fun for a while, but the fun just started to seem like everyone was covering up the empty feelings." "[speaking Pennsylvania Dutch] They talk about us like we're in prison." "But this is where I feel free." "Sorry I have a big mouth." "Don't be sorry." "I'd rather have you than a hundred quiet girls." "[female police detective] Leanne Taylor?" "[Black Cindy] Damn, Suzanne." "Didn't you get the memo?" "We chosen now." "We ain't got to eat that shit." "It's chicken fajitas." "See, that's how they get you, with the power of suggestion." " Mmm-hmm." " Like, now they be calling yogurt" ""key lime pie" or "chocolate cheesecake."" "So, you think, "Hmm, cheesecake,"" "when it's the same gnarly curds it always was." "[singsong voice] Wow." "I want you all to know I had nothing to do with what you're eating." "It came out of a bag." "It is in no way a reflection of what I do." " Okay." " Okay." "See, even she ain't owning it." "Hey, Suzanne." "How's that new chapter coming?" "Here, have my strawberry Jell-O." "Fruit is brain food." "Thanks." " Is, uh, this seat taken?" " Yeah, we saving it for Elijah." "Man, you gonna own that rabbi." "Suzanne, tell us about your process." "I think of shit and write it down." " Wow." " So pure." "I got a question." "If Edwina is really a robo-doll in the end... why doesn't she get rusty when Lily Sprinkle pees on her?" "She's made of pee-proof metal." "Why does Sunflower have to be so mean?" "Oh, 'cause she's the one you love to hate." "You should have her time hump with Lily Sprinkle." "[Annie] Yeah." "[Maureen] Do it for the lesbians." "Sounds like she's done enough for the lesbians." "What has she done for not-the-lesbians?" "[Babs] Um, only the best chapter." "Which one?" "When Admiral Rodcocker gets his clothes vaporized and you find out he gots two penises." "Oh, yeah." "And he gives her a shocker made of penis instead of fingers." "I mean, who thinks of that?" " Damn, I gotta read that shit." " [clicks tongue]" " What?" " That's it!" "This... this book tour is over." "I can do one last question." "Did you have an inspiration for Admiral Rodcocker?" " [Crazy Eyes clicks tongue] - [gasps] I knew it." " [Frieda scoffs] - [gasps]" "I never thought I'd have a thing for bald dudes, but damn." "[laughs]" "The fuck kind of multi-culti shit we got going on here?" "Can't a black woman sit with her peoples?" "No, see, the universiality of my work unites all the races." "[groaning]" "I was hoping for those little stale pieces of bread today." "No such luck." "Hey, Whitehill." "You wanna have lunch with our sad little band of misfits?" "Sure." "Sure." "Sure." "Everybody, this is Lolly." "Lolly, everybody." " You're new?" " Litchfield newbie, prison regular." "Don't worry, it's not so bad." "Not so bad?" "This place is the best!" "How is it?" " Oh, that tastes like brown." " [groans]" "FYI, ladies, I didn't make the food." "This is all out of my control." "Yes, thank you, Red." "You're making that very clear." " Good, as long as you understand." " Mmm." "So... what's your deal, Lolly?" "What are you in for?" " I did something I shouldn't have." " Okay, specific." "Where are you from?" "Here and there." " [Lorna] How much time you got?" " Depends." "Depends?" "On how well I do here." "Well, try and think of your time here as a mandala." "The Tibetan monks make intricate designs out of dyed sand, and when they're done... whoosh... they're cleared away." "I gotta go take a quiz." "A quiz?" " Okay, bye." "What the fuck?" " What a twat." "She is nutty as a nut bar." "It makes me glad I got both my feet on the ground." "[scoffs]" " I mean, I tried, right?" " Yeah." "Tell Piper I play well with others." "Tell Piper what?" "Oh, nothing, schnookums." "Just facing my fears head-on." "Did you just call me "schnookums"?" "I did, but it was in between quotes." "I didn't hear any quotes, love muffin." "Now you're just being smutty." "Cal's coming tomorrow to give us the lowdown on our first shipment." " I'm pretty excited." " That's great." "Also, I killed a guard with my bare hands." "Cal..." "Panties..." "Exciting." "My bats mitzvah was sick!" "All the black Jews was there." "Lenny Kravitz... [speaking gibberish]" "For a long time, "kosher" meant hot dogs to me." "Really, really good hot dogs." "But now, it just means so much more." "Now, it means broccoli..." "green beans." "You know what I hate?" "Shrimps." "Damn, dirty shrimps." "Don't even talk to me about shrimps!" "I call my mother a lot, like, every day." "And I love a bargain." ""Who hath believed our report... and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?"" "Isaiah 53, verse one." "[speaking gibberish] [singing]" "[mumbling]" "Latinas are halfway Jew already." "I mean, the hora and the conga line?" "Basically the same thing." "There was a big book where I wrote down all the people I wish was dead... who..." "You know, so God comes and kills them and not my... me." "And may I say," "I think y'all are doing a wonderful job controlling the media." "I mean, we..." "we are doing a wonderful job." "[Rabbi Tatelbaum] Now, Miss Hayes, were you raised Jewish?" "Mmm-hmm." "Born and bred, on my mama's side." "And that's the side that make it all legit, see?" "Jewish smarts." " And you kept kosher growing up?" " Mmm-hmm." "Let me lay it all out for you." "The whole brood of Hayes, we lived under the Cyclone on Coney Island, right?" "Brooklyn in the house." "A-yo!" "And, uh, oh, I was always a nervous kid growing up, always worrying about the universe expanding, and... and so, my parents took me to a shrink, and the shrink was like, "Cindy, quit your worrying." "The universe be chilling for another billion years."" "But I couldn't stop worrying and cooking lobsters and hanging with women in suspenders." "I see you're familiar with Annie Hall." " Annie who?" " I see." "Okay, okay, okay." "Anyway... anyway..." "So, my father... my father died pretty young." "It was a sad story." "And after he died, I went to yeshiva school." "Now, I knew I had to dress like a dude and all, but that didn't matter, 'cause what I really wanted to study was the, um..." "What's that word that begin with a "T"?" " The Talmud." " Next." " The Torah." " Mmm, yeah, that." "And whenever I felt alone," "I would sing up to my papa in heaven, and I would be like, "Papa... do you feel me?"" "And he would be like, "Cindy, girl... even though I'm in heaven, I still feel you."" "Jews don't have an official conception of the afterlife." "Oh." "I remember that now." "The focus, instead, is to fulfill our duties to God here on Earth." "Right!" "That's how we do it." "[chuckles] Miss Hayes, while I am heartened that you appreciate the works of Woody Allen and Barbra Streisand," "I think you've confused cultural Judaism with committed Jewish belief." "Also, I hear Mandy Patinkin can be difficult to work with." "So, do I pass?" "And I call and I call, and no one answers." "I don't know what's going on." "And now, I can't see him." "Can't somebody else drive him?" "I asked this whole goddamn prison." "Ain't nobody else with a car that far up the river." "[scoffs]" "Who does this tranny bitch think she is, messing with your visitations?" "Tranny's got nothing to do with it." "It's just two mothers going at it for their kids." "So, maybe it's better for Benny if I don't win this one." "You're not thinking of apologizing?" "Maybe just smooth things out is all." "She fucked with you being able to see your kid, mama." "She should apologize to you." "Benny's a mouthy little fucker." "What if he did start this?" "Even if Benny was a bad influence, she thinks that's why her kid's fucked in the head?" "He's got two mommies." "One of them got a pee-pee." "She don't have a dick, Aleida." "I've seen it, you've seen it." "She got a perky little cooch." " Ugh!" "You're gonna make me throw up." " [chuckles]" "There it is." "There's my puke." "I had nothing to do with it." "[both] We know." "As I was saying, we gotta think of this as the first test, like the Jews wandering the desert, or the early Christians, wherever they wandered." "The desert, I think." "Everybody was in the desert for a while." "[Frieda growls]" "Her hand is on my half again." "Sorry." "I need my space." "And for the record, your timing sucks." "That Rodcocker just fell into the orgasmator." "Hey, no spoilers." "I gotta hand this over to Valdez in 30 minutes." "The world's gonna keep shitting on us until we make ourselves official." " Official how?" " Maybe if we all got the same haircut." "Only if all y'all get my haircut." "No, or something with our clothes, like an armband with a symbol." "Like a swastika?" "Not an armband, but something else that..." "Something else for excluding people, like how you excluded Brook." "Soso left on her own." "Yeah, after you scared her away with your rules and regulations and loudness." "If she doesn't get what we stand for, she's better off gone." "[female police detective] Hold still, Leanne." "They're gonna know." "They're gonna wonder why I'm back." " Amish kids come back all the time." " Not once they're baptized." "They don't have to know you're baptized." "They'll see it on my face..." "that I'm with God." "I don't wanna disrespect your beliefs, but that sounds like a bunch of crap." "Hey, easy." "They think not wearing buttons makes them closer to God." "Leanne, all you have to do is hang out for a couple hours, score some meth, like the good old days." "Talk into the mic, Leanne." "Testing, testing." "Whatever, whatever." "Levels are good." "I think we're ready." "[exhales]" "Please, all I want is to go home and be with my family." "Yeah, well, you kind of limited your choices when you left a bag of drugs lying around with your ID in it." "I'd say you're getting a pretty sweet deal." "All you have to do is this one small thing, and it all goes away." ""One small thing." You mean fuck over my friends?" "Your friends, the Rumspringa drug cartel." "[male DEA agent] Aren't you helping them in the long run?" "Maybe when they go to prison, it'll turn them around... they'll find God, like you did." "[scoffs]" "No, they won't." "[speaking Pennsylvania Dutch] They like Hell too much." "We figured you got busted." "What, me?" "Never." "I just took a vacation to Bonnet City." "Oh, man, you went back?" "I had to see my parents." "My dad was sick..." "with cancer." "Oh, fuck, that sucks." "Did they try to get you to stay?" "Are you kidding?" "They, like, begged." "They tried that shit with me, too." "Offered me a new pony cart. [scoffs]" "Anyway, I told them I missed it too much here." "Yeah, you know, it's important to know where you make sense." "Otherwise, you're not really living, you know?" "Speaking of living... do you wanna hook me up with some crank?" "[woman speaking indistinctly on PA]" "Hey, boss lady." "Hey." "Um..." "You look comfortable." "I like to air-dry." "Sensitive skin." "And these towels are the fucking worst." "Oh, yeah, they're the worst." "How does it feel being a magnate?" "No, I'm not really..." "Today's panty smuggler, tomorrow's Fortune 500." "Sisters are doing it for themselves." "You're too young to know that song." " What song?" " Never mind." " So, how's your first shipment doing?" " We'll know soon." "You must be psyched." "[sighs]" "It's really nice how supportive you are." "Whatever." "I was thinking, and I..." "I think you'd actually be a really great... person to ask about this." "I'm thinking the spicy chicken packets might be worth more than the regular chicken packets, because they are certainly proving to be the most popular." "[Stella] Mmm." " Sounds like quite a pickle." " Mmm-hmm, yes." "I'm sure you'll figure out what you want." "I have every confidence in you." "All right, who stole my towel?" " Ugh, how much longer?" " We got about a half hour left." " [groans]" " Oh!" "Ah!" "Crap!" "Crap!" "Crap!" " Ow!" " You cut yourself?" "No, but I broke that window." "[Lea] Somebody should go report this." " I'll do it." " I will!" "[sighs]" "You sure you're okay?" "I said I was." "Great, I'll get the rake." "[Lolly singing] ♪ But the cat came back the very next day ♪" "♪ The cat came back He just couldn't stay away ♪" "♪ Away, away, away ♪" "Um, where did that big piece go?" "Big piece of..." "What big piece?" "I told that hot bald guard." "He said to leave it." "Maintenance will deal with it in the morning." "Oop!" "Sorry, Maintenance." "That's the way the cookie crumbles!" "Did Norma send you?" "No, my heart just changed with the power of your love." "Yes, Norma sent me." "Okay." "Can I sit or something?" "Isn't that what people do?" "Yeah." "So..." "I'm not that great at apologies." ""I'm sorry" is usually a strong opener." "Let me work up to it." "So, I don't know why I take structure so serious, but I guess I do." "And..." "I think it might have something to do with being raised in a church that people like to shit on a lot." "Oh, my God, what church?" "[Leanne] It doesn't matter." "The point is..." "is that it was hard sometimes... a lot of the time." "But if you knew who you were and what you believed, then it didn't matter if they called you names or made fun of your buggy or whatever." "You knew you were better than them because you belonged." "And when I stopped having that..." "Anyway, when I started doing the Norma meetings... it finally felt like I belonged to something again, even if it was small, and I didn't want people to shit on it." "So, when you came in acting like the rules were nothing, I got a little... carried away, maybe." "[sighs] Wait, your buggy..." "Do you mean you're, like..." "So, you, like, wore a bonnet?" "Yeah." "[chuckles] I'm sorry, it's, like, um..." "just, like, you in a... in a bonnet!" "[laughs]" "Did you hear this?" "Did you..." "You churn butter." "You Harrison Ford in Witness." " That movie has a lot of inaccuracies." " [laughs]" "Uh, you a total weirdo." "Oh, no!" "Oh, my God!" "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry, Leanne." "I didn't..." "Keep my name out of your fucking mouth, you fucking half-breed." "Hope you enjoy hell." "Yeah, she no good at apologies." "I thought you might be hungry." "What if someone sees?" "The elders are already out of line." "Shunning is for guiding people back to the church." "But you didn't turn your back on the church." "I did worse." "I sent their kids to jail." "[man speaking Pennsylvania Dutch] How could you be so careless?" "[woman] Our daughter was hungry." "[man] As if things aren't bad enough." "Our business is suffering." "No one wants their sons working for me." "We'll be broke if it goes on like this." "[woman] Time will heal the wound." "We have to be patient and forbearing." "She's our daughter." "[man breathing heavily]" "[woman speaking indistinctly on walkie-talkie] [knock on door]" " Hey." " Hey." "I didn't want you to think I'm some kind of bitch or nothing from before." "Oh, that?" "I wasn't worried about that." "Yeah, you were." "Yeah, I kind of shit my pants, actually." "I mean... not literally." "You know, everybody around here has a big mouth, and especially the beanbags." "And if they find out that we're becoming all friendly, then our happy lake times are gone, just like that... okay?" "So, we have to maintain boundaries." "Inmate, step out of the bubble." "Yes, sir, Mr. Donuts, sir." "That's Mr. Coates to you." " [whispers] Officer Coates." " That's Officer Coates to you!" "You got potential." "All right, Officer Coates." " Good night, sir." " Good night... inmate." "[Maria] You're not on the list." " What's that supposed to be, anyway?" " The bag said "Irish stew."" "Looks like the fajitas." "One kosher meal, please." " Your name isn't on the list." " You didn't even look at the list." "It's a short list." "Do you want this or not?" "Yeah, hit me." " Let me guess." " Not on the list." "Man, I told that rabbi I was Drake's cousin, worked the whole Black-Jewish mafia thing." "But I guess he ain't never heard of Drake." "Well, fool, you're, like, fifty shades darker than Drake." "Fifty Shades of Drake." " [laughs]" " Mmm." " Yeah." " That's right, girl." "Somebody must've passed that test." "[Maritza] One kosher meal coming right up." "The Abrahamic religions are pretty much all the same," " till you get to Jesus." " [Black Cindy scoffs]" "Yo, Red, you eat this shit?" "People of the cafeteria, in case you haven't heard," "I didn't cook it." "I punch in, I punch out." "I play Sudoku, I scratch my ass." "If I had e-mail, I would check it." "But the food you eat does not have even a piece of my soul in it." "That is all." " Only one thing left to do now." " What's that?" "Convert for real." "Where my dreidel at?" "Writer's block?" "It's like I can see the words, but I can't make them obey me." "That's okay." "Fran Lebowitz hasn't written anything for 30 years, and people still think she's great." " Yeah, as great as Gena Showalter?" " I don't know who that is." "Hey, I was wondering, um, you know when Sunflower takes both Rodcocks at once, and she says, "I can feel you in my eyeballs"?" "I'm wondering, is that, you know, poetry... or can she literally feel his penises in her eyeballs?" "I like to let the words speak for themselves." "Because I personally, I really identify with Sunflower, and it seems like she might be polymorphously perverse." " You know what that is?" " Yes." "No." "Well, Freud describes it as a time before age five when any part of your body can be aroused by almost anything." " [snorts]" " Like, your elbow... your kneecap... your eyeballs." "I remember feeling like I was the only one." "So, if Sunflower or... anyone... felt that way..." "I'd want them to know that..." "they aren't alone." "Suzanne, you forgot your..." "I'm scared to ask." "How did it go with Gerber?" "[whispers] Who's Gerber?" "Baby face..." "our corruptible young man." "Oh, yeah!" "[chuckles]" "We met at a dog park near his house." "You know, he dyed his dog to look like a tiger." "But you got the goods?" "Oh, my God, you don't know yet." "Of course you don't know." "Oh, no, Cal..." "What happened?" "[whispers] Pipes..." "we sold out overnight." "[whispers] Shut up." " Yes." " All 20 pairs?" "Frankly, I think we're selling ourselves a little short at 50 bucks a pop." "I think we should shoot for the moon, and go for, like, 75, maybe." "And the more we can get..." "Well, that means that I'll have to recruit more panty girls." "Seriously, that's what you call them?" "This whole thing is like Christmas." " What is on your arm?" " Oh." "Oh, yeah, uh, there are reviews up on the site." "Already?" "World Wide Web, man." "It's some fast shit." "I hear it's the latest thing." " I wrote down the good ones to tell you." " Okay." "[clears throat]" ""Great service, lovely scent."" "Aw." ""Prison bitches are the ripest."" "That's a good one, I think." "What do you mean, "That's a good one"?" "Does that mean that there are bad ones?" "Uh, there are a couple, but I'm not going to tell you." "All people ever remember are the bad ones." "I'm in prison, Cal." "I've got some pretty thick skin these days." "People think the packaging could be better." "That's bullshit." "[shushing]" "I mean, you try packaging things with stolen kitchen supplies." "[softly] I know." "But maybe they're right." "Maybe you should repackage them when you get them, and then you can ship them." "Oh, man, I feel awful that they look bad." "Anyways, moving on, people are already asking for some very weird stuff..." " Huh." " Like murder panties." "Now, I assume that is when the murderers wear them and not the victims." "One guy really wants Samoan girls with really big feet." " I don't know any Samoan girls." " Oh, it doesn't matter." "They don't have to know that." "You can be anyone that you say you are, but you gotta be careful." "You can't go saying that you're some black lady serial killer who specializes in killing bald men with blows from a poison-tipped sai kata, and then the customer finds a blond pube in there." "Uh-uh." "You gotta maintain the fantasy." "Good point." "You frighten me, but... good point." "Did your mom let you have it?" "I sure hope so." "I'm grounded for two months." "Well, you deserve it..." "but you're still my little boy." " Whatever." " [woman weeping]" "It was worth it to teach that little bitch Laronne a lesson." "What lesson?" "What did he do to you?" " Looking at me funny." " What do you mean "funny"?" "Probably fagging out on me." "I had to school that shit-stabber." "Baby, don't play tough..." "and watch your mouth." "I know you only did it to impress that Benny." "Benny?" "Benny ran away like a little wuss." "He did?" "I should stomp his bitch ass next." "I don't know who's the bigger pussy, him or Laronne." "[Coates] Come on, guys, look at the pretty colors." "[Pennsatucky] You're that one." "[Coates] Which one?" "That Downsy one that keeps missing all the crumbs." "Oh, yeah?" "Well, you're the brown one over there that keeps swimming around in circles." "I'm not a stupid brown duck." "I'm a hot green duck." "The green ducks are males, dummy." "You wanna be a man duck?" "It's a man's world." "Name like Doggett, maybe you're not a duck." "You're a dog." "Well, I can swim good." "I can fetch even better." " Oh, yeah?" " Yeah." "Let's see about that." " What?" " Fetch!" " Fetch, Doggett, fetch." " [scoffs] [barks] [pants]" "Good girl." " Good Doggett." " [chuckles]" "Fetch with your mouth this time." " Go on." " Okay." "Fetch." "[panting] [barking]" "What's the matter, girl?" "It's all wet here and muddy." "Uh-uh-uh." "Sorry, I only understand dog talk." "You're a dog playing fetch with a dog?" "That doesn't make any sense." "I said, "Fetch," inmate!" "Good girl." "[coughs]" "Good Doggett." "[roars] [chuckles]" "Hey!" "It's okay." "There's no one around." "Fuck, I like you so much. [chuckles]" "Okay." "I..." "like... you... so... much." "Okay." "Right." "Boundaries." "I know it sounds rough, but sometimes you gotta cut people loose." "Sometimes people don't belong, and the most important thing is the unity of the group." "Yeah, I told her there was a place for her and you wanted her back, but... she didn't seem into it." "It's like you always say..." "Sometimes the kindest thing is to let people go." "[sighs]" "[snoring]" "So, is that, like, a..." "Chinese thing, or..." "You want this book?" "I don't cook Italian much, but what this woman does with butter..." "What'll I use it for, a doorstop?" "[sighs]" "Hey, pity party..." "you need to let this shit go." "You're right, the food tastes like crap, and I get 1,000 different visions of hell when I put it in my mouth, but your face is not one of them." "We get it, you didn't cook it." "Stop apologizing." "The more you apologize..." "the worse it tastes." "You gotta move... the fuck... on." "Thanks." "I needed that." "[sighs]" "Can I help you?" "No... never mind." "[Stella] Holy shit!" " This is major." " [Piper] Right?" "I mean, there was one bad review, but it's... not like I care." "Although, they were... kind of right." "Say you expand to 16 panty girls and you go down to two days per pair of panties, that's 48 pairs of panties per week." "Times that by $75 each, and you have a gross amount... of..." "[chuckles]" "Holy fuck!" "What?" "$3,600 a week." "Wow." "But two days per panty, wouldn't that be more than three pairs per week?" "Yeah, but you should give them a day off..." " for the Sabbath." " Oh." "Look at you." "You're a good Christian girl." " Actually, I'm Buddhist." " Of course you are." "Maybe they'll give you a special Buddha meal." "Ew, no, they're gross." "It's some sort of gluten shit instead of meat." "But now that they're cracking down on the fake Jews," "I'm thinking of going halal." "[speaks Arabic]" "You really know how to work a system." "I'm a hard worker." "Mmm." "So, what did Alex say when you told her the good news?" "Oh, but I haven't told her." "She's been busy." "And by "busy," I mean psychologically unstable." "And by "psychologically unstable," I mean annoying." "Well..." "I'm honored that you told me first." " Sixteen girls." " Mmm-hmm." "I have to make sure we find girls we can trust." "Yeah." "Girls that we know will be into it." " "It" being panties?" " Yeah." " That won't be hard." " It won't?" "No, it's like, um... it's like sussing out whether somebody's into you or not." "When you know it, you know it... you know?" "On the other hand, sometimes you can... suspect... but you're not..." "totally sure-sure." "And so, you're left..." "sitting in that expectation... waiting for someone to..." "break the suspense." "Did that clear things up?" "No." "In fact, that just made everything a lot more fucking confusing." "[softly] Uh..." "Sorry." "It's not your fault." "Yeah, it is." "Okay, yeah." "Yeah, it kind of is." "[RB song playing]"

"And finally, through a small incision in the skull... the nanodevice is placed directly into the brain." "Where once it's activated, it causes everything the subject eats to taste sweet." "The implications for weight loss are enormous." "And while elective brain surgery doesn't test that great... it still tests better than dieting and exercise." "Excellent work, everybody." "Thanks for staying late." " Oh, shoot." " What's the matter?" "My driver died a few days ago, and I haven't gotten a replacement yet." "Oh, I'm sorry." "I could give you a ride home." "I suppose that's okay." "But I can't start you at what my old driver was getting." "You don't have to pay me." "I just thought it'd be a nice thing to do." "All right." "Yes." "Thank you." "Right?" "Thank you?" "Yes." "I'll go get my things." " Can we stop and do an errand on the way?" " Sure." " Uh" " Oh, still free." "Then pull the car around." "We've never really gotten along." "I figured maybe some one-on-one time might thaw the chill." " I always thought Veronica lived here." " Me too." "You know, she just finds a comfortable chair and powers down for the night." " Come on." "We are gonna be late." " You're the one who didn't wanna share the bathroom mirror." "Hey, guys." "Thought maybe we'd go to McTaggert's for beers." "Now?" "Tonight?" "Without warning?" " Don't you have to get home to your daughter?" " Nope." "Her mom's visiting after a year in Botswana." "Which, by the way, is a year Botswana's never gonna get back." "Anyway, they're hanging in New York for a week... until Stacy finds another country to go fix... so she doesn't have to work on herself." "So, I'm free." "I wish my wife would go to Botswana." "The thing is, we kind of have plans." "Although, if you wanted to" "Oh, I see." "You're going someplace you don't want me to come." " That's cool." " You'd think it was lame." " I promise I wouldn't." " Well, then maybe" "Phil, can I talk to you for a minute?" "It's not about you." "An occasional drink is fine, but being friends with your boss is a slippery slope." "Guys, we can get past the boss thing." "I consider you friends." "Phil, can I talk to you a little further away for a minute?" "Still not about you." " Oh." " You think you're their friend." "But when push comes to shove, they're always your boss, and they know it." "Yeah, but Ted is not like that." "He's a good guy." "Don't touch that!" "Besides, Ted could bring us a lot of street crud." "It's street cred." "You know- credibility." "Oh!" "Now that finally makes sense." "Thanks for swinging by my grandmother's place... and for helping me carry all her possessions." "Oh." "You're really handling all this pretty well." "I can't believe your grandmother and your driver both died in the same week." "What?" "Oh." "That's funny." "No, they were the same person." "You hired your own grandmother to drive you around?" "She needed money, but she didn't want a handout." "She was a very proud woman and a very proud driver." "You wanna maybe talk about her?" "You know, how you're feeling about losing her." "Oh, that's sweet, but no." "Are you sure?" "I'm worried it could change our relationship... and make it difficult to continue working together." "But I suppose that's a risk I'm willing to take." "Or..." "I could just go." "Don't be silly." "Let's talk." "Would you like some wine?" "I would like a whole bunch of wine, yes." "Okay." "But we'll have to pour it ourselves." "My housekeeper died this week." "I've never been in the subbasement before." "They don't want the executives down there because of all the asbestos." "When you work for a company this intense, you have to find ways to relax." "We tried the Veridian chess club and the quilting club... but those were just meat markets." "Besides, nothing relieves tension like this." "Behold!" "Welcome to medieval fight club." "Veridian Dynamics." "Bosses." "Everybody has one." "Without bosses, we'd be like these worms- disgusting." "Bosses make everything better." "So listen to your boss... and don't question them." "Otherwise, you're no better than a worm." "Veridian Dynamics." "Bosses." "Necessary." "You have to fight your way up the ladder." "Newbies start out as peasant farmers." "Here are your soiled rags." "Sorry." "We have to stay in character." "The king is watching." "Isn't that Gil, the I.T. guy?" " On the surface world." "Here, he is our king." " Listen, fellas." "This all seems really, uh" " Cool." " Sure." "Let's go with cool." "But I think I'm gonna take off." "Ted, wait." "You are the first executive that's ever been down here." "You leaving like this makes us look like fools." "And we haven't been fools for months." "Let him go." "It's not your fault." "Bosses and employees just shouldn't hang out." "It's like a ventriloquist trying to be friends with his dummy." "At the end of the day, you know who's sleeping in a suitcase." "The dummy." "All right." "I was the one who pushed for us to hang out... so I should endure this." "I mean, suffer through" " I mean, support you, because that's what friends do." "And she married my grandfather at 18." "Now my grandfather had an amazing life." "He came to this country with nothing and made a huge fortune." "And then one day, tragically, he got deported." "Oh!" "That's so sad." "I have a question." "We've been drinking all night." "How can you be sotally tober when I'm completely fit-shaced?" "No, I've always been like this." "My body just doesn't process alcohol like that." "You want one of these?" "You want one of these?" "That's what I thought." "Linda" "My grandfather" " I never liked him." "He smelled of onions and once cheated on my grandmother with Eleanor Roosevelt... who hated men but loved onions." "Why are you telling me all of this?" "Because I've never told anybody." "I'm the one who turned him in." "I had him deported." "I declare Ted the victor." "And Victor the loser." "God, that was fantastic." "Are you allowed to fight more than once in one night?" "You've done well by bringing a warrior of such pluck into the fold." "I told you this would work out." "We haven't been this celebrated since we fixed the king's moped." "My ex-wife is spoiling the hell out of our daughter." "I could spoil her too, but one of us has to be a good parent." "Really, sweetie?" "Ice cream for breakfast?" "No, you're right." "I don't let you do that." "You know what I do let you do?" "Get vaccinated." "Okay, I love you too, Rose." "That bitch is driving me crazy." " Hey, hey!" "She's seven." " Whoa!" "Easy!" "Not Rose." "My ex-wife." "Oh, Stacy." "Yeah, she was... crazy." " Crazy hot." " Totally." "You were an animal last night." "No one has ever won four battles in a row." "That medieval fight stuff is a blast." "And it wasn't just the winning." "It was the constant winning." "I can't wait to get back to it tonight." "There's no meeting tonight." "We only get the basement once a week." "I took care of that." "I had the A.A. meeting... moved to the utility closet so we could have the basement." "Medieval fight club two nights in a row?" "Man, my codpiece just got tighter." "See?" "It's good to be friends with the boss, huh, fellas?" "Well, I-I hate to break it to you, but we can't make it tonight." "Mom's birthday." "Oh." "Well, that's okay." "We'll see you next time." "I can't miss M.F.C. That's how rumors start." "Would it be weird for me to bring my mother?" "Yes." " Morning, Linda." " Oh!" "I couldn't sleep all night." "I really messed things up with Veronica." "Last night, she opened up and told me something very personal." "Now I know too much." "What if she has me fired... or deported?" "I mean, who knows what?" "Hello, Linda." "I need to see you in my office." "Okay." "Hear that, everyone?" "Veronica needs to see all of us in her office." "No." "Just you." "I don't know why I drink." "I always either get laid or fired." "I have to start drinking." "I like those odds." " Linda, there's no easy way to say this." " You're firing me." "No." "That would be easy." "You're fired." "What I wanna say is..." "I've been keeping that secret about my grandfather for years... and it felt wonderful to finally get it off my chest." "Oh, really?" "I'm glad to hear that." "So, thank you for listening to me." "We're letting you go." " What?" " That would be another way to say it." "Anyway, I slept like a baby all night." "Actually, I thought you might be afraid that I would tell people your secret." "Oh, I hadn't thought of that." "I hadn't thought of that at all." "But do what you're going to do, Linda." "Oh, I'm not gonna do that." "We're friends." "Friends don't do things like that." "Friends?" "I like the way that sounds." "Okay, we're friends." "Good." "Because you can never have too many." "I used to feed my sister in her sleep so she wouldn't be skinnier than me." "Wow!" "You're my first friend who's ever done something like that." "It feels so good to finally admit that to someone." "Hey, let's take the morning off so we can talk some more." "I'll take you to breakfast." "Someplace where the meals don't end with the word "slam. "" "I don't know." "I've got a lot of work to do on the Doppler project." "You're with the boss." "Relax." "Besides, I can give the Doppler project toJoe." "Really?" "Because I do hate the Doppler project." "And I hateJoe, so everybody wins." "No one gets in!" "No one gets in!" "All right." "I'm calling it." "Did I win?" "Well, he didn't get in, but no." "And this defeat brings you all the way down to court jester." "Ted." "In order to advance to squire, there is but one knave standing in your way." "I propose a mutual surrender." "Valiant try, you giant ball of wuss." "I declare Ted the victor." "Hey, guys." "No hard feelings, huh?" "No." "We like that you're successful at everything you do." "And you realize a forfeit takes you down to court jester as well." "Fine." "Whatever." "But it's going to be the same jokes you heard last month." "Hey." "Your hair looks nice." "You like it?" "Veronica took us out to get our hair done." "We've been spending tons and tons and tons of time together this week." "Well, at least you two are bonding." "We're not bonding." "I'm being absorbed." "Well, whatever it is you're doing, keep it up..." " 'cause your hair looks great." " You think I care what my hair looks like" "Linda then loudly explained that her hair... wasn't important to her right now... because being friends with Veronica came at a price." "Sure, there was shopping." "I once slept with my boyfriend's therapist to find out if he was cheating on me." "He wasn't." "And there were massages." "And then I accused Omar Sharif of being a terrorist... so he'd get kicked off a plane and I could take his first-class seat." "And midnight girl talk." "Hello?" "Hi, it's me." "I'd ask you over... but my sister's in town for my grandmother's funeral." "But the friendship came with a price." "Veronica keeps dumping all this stuff on me." "I'm like her brain toilet." "I don't know how much more I can take." "Just because she's your boss doesn't mean you have to put up with it... or jump every time she calls you." "Phil!" "Lem!" " Is he coming?" " Just go." "Go!" "That's weird." "I could've sworn they saw me." "Hey, friend." "I was thinking we'd have lunch today." " 1:00?" "Excellent." " I don't think that's such a good idea." " After-work drinks?" " Veronica, I'm sorry." "It's just" " I see." "You're dumping me." " No, no." "It's just- I really enjoyed spending time with you." "And I don't deserve this much pleasure." "I know." "I'm messed up." "I'm just a big old bucket of crazy." "But I thought, again... because of my own inadequacies, we should take a little break." "Well, isn't that funny?" "Because I've been wanting to take a break too." "So this works out perfectly." "Good-bye." "You wanna take a break from medieval fight club?" "But don't you wanna see my new tunic?" "It's got clovers on it." "You bought a tunic?" "That's a big investment, considering you're gonna stop coming when Rose gets home." "That's right." "You're going to stop coming when Rose gets home." "No way." "I am hooked." "I'll just get a sitter a couple nights a week." "But it's not gonna be the same without my two court jesters." "The thing is, we've been under a lot of pressure... from the model train club to get back into that." "Also, I have a chance at being the first black mayor ofTiny Town, so" "Well." "Guess I can't force you to keep coming to fight club." "Oh." "By the way, I'm gonna need to see the specs... on the taste-altering brain implant on my desk by 9:00 a. m." " No way!" " We can't have it done that quickly!" "Well, it looks like you're gonna be up all night." "Although, if you had a good enough reason to not be working... suppose it could wait a few days." "Would medieval fight club be a good enough reason?" "That's what I wanna hear." "Come on, guys." "It's gonna be fun." "Be there or be squire." "Ah!" "That's... clever." ""Be there or be squire. " I said that two years ago." "You were right, Lem." "His true boss nature came through and attacked." "We have to figure out a way to get Ted to drop out of fight club." "Yes, but how?" "What if we pit him against The Groth?" "The Groth?" "Well, I guess it was put on this Earth for a reason." "I don't think so, fellas." "I'm done with medieval fight club." " I have a girlfriend now." " It's just this one time." " Please, The Groth?" " For us?" "Meanwhile, it turned out Veronica didn't like taking a friendship break." "Oh!" "Hold it!" "And since Veronica was the boss... she had lots of ways to make that clear." "There you go, Joe." "Enjoy your extra room." "Bring him to me!" "You okay?" "You look a little nervous." "You can call it off and never come back." "No, I just got off the phone with Rose." "She's gonna stay a few more days in New York with her mom, who didn't clear it with me first." "So now if I say no, I'm the bad guy." "But... stuff happens." "No biggie." "Who dares challenge?" "What the" "Linda, I feel like you've been wanting to get our relationship back to the way it was." "What gave you that idea?" "The fact that you turned my cubicle into a hobbit hole?" "Now let's not get into who shrunk whose office or who canceled whose dental plan." "The point is, we had something special... and you'd like to get back to that, and I accept." "Veronica, I'd like to be friends." "But real friends don't just talk about their problems all the time." "Real friends listen to each other." "Okay." "I'm listening now." "Oh." "Well, let's see." "Well, here's something." "When I was growing up, I wanted to be a gymnast." "And every night after my parents went to sleep..." "I used to sneak out of bed and put on my leotard." " And one night, when I thought my parents were sleeping" " I'm sorry." "I'm gonna have to stop you." "You going on and on about yourself" "It feels, well, needy." "Needy?" "I tell you one thing that happened to me, one thing that's important in my life" "You're doing it again, and I find it off-putting." "I'm sorry." "I can't be friends with you anymore." "You've changed." " Hey." " No, it's okay." "I got it." "Oh." "I'm sorry." "I'm a little preoccupied." "I almost killed a man in the basement." "Huh." "Last week, a story like that would've surprised me." "So who'd you almost kill?" "Was itJoe?" "I hate that guy." "He took half my cubicle." "No, I've been doing this medieval fight club... since Rose has been with her mom, and I got a little carried away." " Your ex-wife's in town?" " No." "No, she blew into New York for a couple weeks." "And since she's never around, I have to drop everything so that Rose can go be with her." "Well, when Rose gets back, she wants to stay up late, have ice cream for breakfast." "And then I don't let her, because I'm an actual parent, not Willy Wonka." "So I'm the bad guy." "Rose gets mad at me, and" " I'm going back to the basement." "Why?" "Is your ex-wife down there?" "What?" "Because it sounds like that's who you've been fighting all week." "Either that, or you've turned into some gigantic nerd." "First of all... you are speaking to a knight of the realm." "So show some respect." "Second of all, you might be right." "There's a single dads club that meets on the fifth floor every week." "Maybe you should check it out." "I guess I could go beat up some single dads." "I" " I see what you're saying." "You're smart." "In the basement, they'd drown you as a witch." "Actually, they would just spray you with water." "It's more like a medieval wet T-shirt contest." "Good news, Ted." "We took a vote and made you the new king." "And then we took another vote, and you died gloriously in battle." "Listen, fellas." "I owe you an apology." "I've been working out some personal stuff, and I acted like a jerk." "I hope I can make it up to you." "Just... rest in peace, King Ted." "He means..." "you're dead, so don't come back." " I got it." " Just makin' sure... 'cause you're a guy who can miss the signs." "At least you two got an apology from your boss." "All I got from Veronica was a week's worth of frustration." "English" " US" " SDH"

"No." "Go away, Jo." "You better make a wish before I set this couch on fire." "My wish would be for no further acknowledgement of today's hollow symbolic meaning as a milestone in the life of Pacey Witter." "Okay." "Except now that you've told me your wish, it can't possibly come true." "Look, I understand your naive enthusiasm, okay?" "What's the harm in celebrating a birthday, right?" "Everybody does it." "What you don't know is that every birthday I've had since I was 1 0 years old has been a complete disaster." "I'm talking gut-wrenching, soul-searching question-the-universe agony." "Well, at least you' re not being dramatic about it." "For example, my 1 2th birthday party." "My first boy-girl party." "I ate so much pizza and ice cream, I puked on Justine Sherman a girl who I had a massive crush on." "Do you remember this?" "She then called me Pacey Pukey for the rest of the year a little nickname my family picked up on and now resurfaces itself every year around this time to hearty laughs all the way around." "Of course, it's probably not as bad as 1 6 the year that I threw myself a party and nobody decided to show up." "That was good." "Oh, yeah. I also failed my driver's test the same day." "But neither of those will ever, ever be 1 4 the day I was mauled by a dog." "So if you don't mind, this year, I think I' ll just skip it." "No." "Well there may be one way that we could avert disaster." "If you and I were to spend a quiet evening alone here." "I promise, just you and me." "So you' re grinning with anticipation for a certain date with Gretchen tonight?" "I don't know whether it's anticipation or terror." "What's to be terrified about?" "You guys kissed." "And she agreed to go out-- Oh, no, no. I get it. I get it." "What do you get?" "Well, not" " Just" "Pacey and Joey." "Small matter of " Do they know yet?"" "No." "That's not it." "I'm terrified because it's our first official date. I haven't seen her since the kiss, and there's a massive build-up." "Pacey and Joey if they ask me, I' ll tell them." "And Gretchen will too. I mean..." "...it's really not a big deal." "No." "Sounds like a great plan." "Let me know how that goes, okay?" "So Jo, have you got any big plans for Pacey's big you-know-what day?" "Pacey made me promise no big event-y stuff so probably just a quiet night alone, me and him." "I can't believe he thinks there's a birthday curse on him." "l know." "Pretty ridiculous, right?" "But..." "Junk." "...what are you gonna do, though?" "What?" "Oh, nothing. I'm cool." "I'm just gonna put some shoes on." "What are you doing tonight?" "What do you mean?" "I'm throwing a surprise party for Pacey, and I want you there." "Oh, Jo, bad idea." "My parents are insane, and Pacey will kill you." "I know, but see, it was your mom's bad idea." "She called me, and she was so excited and so sweet." "And what was I supposed to say?" "You could say no." "Yeah, but I said yes." "Well, this should be interesting." "Please come. I need as many friendly faces as I can get there." "You don't have any plans, do you?" "Plans?" "Tonight?" "Me?" "No." "God, no." "No." "I'm pathetic." "I don't have much of a life." "Nope." "No plans." "Nothing going on with me." "So you can come?" "Yeah." "Of course I' ll come." "You know, it' ll be fun." "Good." "Pacey is gonna kill me, isn't he?" "Oh, yeah." "You' re dead." "I love this song." "What are you so happy about?" "I'm happy because you agreed to do these fun Saturday-afternoon crafts." "You know, when I was a child, my grandmother taught me how to do the art of decoupage." "Well, I don't think I'm so good at it." "Oh, that looks fine." "So, what are your big plans for this evening?" "Unfortunately, I've got, like, five more hours of community service." "Which means that my Saturday night will be spent chauffeuring a bunch of drunk kids home from illicit teenage parties." "It's for this organization called Responsible Rides." "Well, that sounds like fun." "I don't know. I mean, all these lame hours of community service and I don't feel I've served the community or learned a thing." "I mean, it's just a big, fat waste of time." "Okay, what is with you?" "With me?" "Yeah." "Come on, you' re all flighty and spacey and...." "My God, you are thinking about sex, aren't you?" "Jennifer." "lt's nothing to be ashamed of, Grams." "When two people fall in love, it is perfectly natural to daydream about sex." "I will admit, I enjoy Mr. Brooks' company." "But I most certainly am not in love." "And for the record, we are not having sex." "Be that as it may, I have to ask..." "...have you had the talk?" "What talk?" "The safe-sex talk." "Grams, it's a prerequisite these days." "You gotta find out what this guy's into." "I mean, it could be kinky." "Could be S M, toys" "No" " Stop." "Now, I know what you' re trying to do." "You' re trying to freak me out because you hate decoupage or because you hope to be grounded so you can get out of community service tonight." "Did you just say "freak me out"?" "lt's not going to work." "Because when it comes to safe sexuality I've got my bases covered." "And when it comes to decoupage the more you practice, the better you get." "And when it comes to community service tonight..." "...you' re going." "You are very sneaky, you know that?" "You just turned around that entire conversation without ever having to admit that you were daydreaming about sex." "l'm impressed." "l've learned from the best." "Well, that's true." "Hey." "Hey." "Hello there, handsome." "Hi." "I came by to see where you would like to be taken on our date this evening." "Right, the date." "Yes, the date." "Don't sound too excited." "Oh, no, of course I'm excited." "I just" " There's been a slight change of plans." "You see, my parents decided to throw Pacey a surprise birthday party." "Joey was gonna tell you about it, but I told her I would, because...." "Because we' re going." "Okay." "Not much of a first date, but" "You know, I was thinking, actually maybe we could postpone the whole first-date thing." "Why would we want to do that?" "Well, look, you know, Joey and Pacey don't know about us yet." "You know?" "I'm not sure his birthday party is the best place to come out of that closet." "But it's not like it's a secret." "Yeah, but nobody knows." "Jack knows." "Nobody else knows." "What, that means we should hide it?" "Well, no. I mean, not so much hide it just not tell anyone yet." "Okay." "But in my experience, sneaking around is the best way to get caught doing anything." "We wouldn't be sneaking around." "We' re just postponing things." "is this about Pacey and Joey or your family and being ashamed to date me?" "I'm not ashamed." "Dawson, come on you know my family." "I mean, they' re insane." "Plus, this has to do with Joey and Pacey." "I think we need to be sensitive to them." "Sensitive to them by lying to them?" "Gretchen, I've never known you to be anything other than straightforward." "What's going on?" "Look, I'm just not ready to go public with this." "I mean, you can come to the party, I just-- lf this is something you feel you need to hide it's something we shouldn't be doing in the first place." "I' ll see you tonight." "Once you are on the road we' ll keep in touch via walkie-talkie, okay?" "Do you have any questions?" "No. I think I'm all set." "Ready to round up some drunks." "If you' ll excuse me, I have some paperwork to do." "You' re gonna be riding with this young man here." "Tobey." "Hey, look what the cat dragged in." "What are you doing here?" "The best place to pick up boys." "The drunker the better." "l hear you." "Really, what are you in for?" "Sadly, I am actually volunteering here of my own free will." "What can I say?" "I'm a Good Samaritan." "Well, good for me." "Maybe you can serve to brighten these last few lame hours of indentured servitude." "I live to give." "Actually, you know what?" "There's this birthday party that, if we' re in the neighbourhood making our rounds, we can stop by, and...." "Jack is going to be there, and I know he'd love to see you." "You think?" "We didn't hit it off the first time." "Excuse me." "Maybe this time will be different." "Jen, not all homosexuals have to be friends with each other." "I know that." "Plus, I'm still not entirely convinced Jack's gay." "Maybe he's just pretending for the social cachet, you know?" "The chance to be a rebel outsider." "Wait, listen." "Okay." "I know that you guys had your differences but Jack is a great guy." "He's fun and funny and built like a Greek god." "But more importantly, he's lonely." "Please, tell me you' re not trying to set us up." "l'm trying to set you up as friends." "Good." "Because I'm taken." "And Greg is extremely jealous." "Where are you taking me?" "And why would you be blindfolded if I was going to tell you?" "I thought that we had agreed not to celebrate." "Well, I changed my mind." "Well, do I at least get to guess?" "You can have one guess." "Perhaps a remote dock." "You brought some candles and some champagne and birthday cake that you are going to feed to me by hand while serenading me, off-key, of course and dressed only in Victoria's Secret lingerie." "After which, you will lay me down under the stars and ravish me." "Close, Pace." "Very close." "Oh, you' re here." "Surprise." "Oh, shoot." "We missed it." "Surprise!" "Surprise!" "Happy birthday, Pace." "Surprise." "Hey, gang." "Hey, there's my birthday-cursed little brother." "Oh, I can't wait to see what disasters befall you on this joyous occasion." "Well, let the games begin." "Mom?" "Hungry!" "You just need to wait a minute." "Dinner's not ready yet!" "Doug, can I get some help with the card table, please?" "Need help?" "Okay." "Guys, let's take this out of the hallway." "All right." "Get your stick on the ice!" "Starting with the power play now." "Move in there, Cross." "Did you see that?" "Yeah." "Thanks, darling." "It's funny." "Very festive, no?" "Been there since Christmas '86." "That's cute. I didn't know you had a dog." "" Had" being the operative word." "What happened to it?" "We don't speak of that." "Join me in the kitchen?" "Sure." "No wonder your husband left, Kerry." "You' re becoming a cow." "On my 1 8th birthday, I was trudging through a jungle in Da Nang." "Machine gun on my shoulder, 50 pounds of ammo on my back." "Saw a lot of tragedy that day." "But I celebrated that night with a gorgeous 30-year-old Vietnamese beauty." "Several times, I might add." "Now, that-- That was an 1 8th birthday." "I thought you had to be 1 8 to join the Army, Pop." "You calling me a liar, son?" "Oh, now, John just because Pacey's not out there defending his country doesn't mean he's not a man today." "And I know if there were a war on, assuming they'd take him he'd enlist tomorrow." "Wouldn't you, honey?" "Sure thing, Ma." "Off sides, ref!" "Pacey, why doesn't Joanna set the table?" "Her name's Joey, Ma." "That's what I said." "Of course you did." "Get your stick on the ice!" "You pass like a poofter." "You kids better not get dirty before dinner." "Grandpa and I will give you another spanking!" "Just kill me now." "Now, who the hell are you?" "Me?" "I'm Jack, sir." "We met a while back on a fishing trip." "Don't remember." "What kind of goaltending is that?" "My mother could have stopped that shot!" "More napkins in here if you need them, Josey." "Help yourself." "Do you mind if I ask you just what the hell you were thinking?" "What do you mean?" "You promised me." "You and me, alone, tonight." "You looked me in the eye and promised." "Your family, out of kindness, wanted to throw a party for you for your 1 8th birthday." "What was I supposed to say?" "My family could give a crap about me or my birthday." "It's an excuse for my father to get drunker than usual eat cake, say I'm a disappointment and pass out watching When Animals Attack!" "Okay, so they' re not perfect, granted." "But they' re your family, Pace." "Don't you get what that means?" "The least you can do is make a little bit of an effort." "It doesn't matter what kind of effort I make. I'm still gonna fail." "Fail?" "Fail at what?" "Pace, what are you talking about?" "Nothing." "Look at me." "I promise you that we will get through this night together, unscathed." "And everything's gonna be okay. I swear." "Okay?" "Oh, I wish that were true." "Hey, did anyone ever tell you, you are the master..." "...at giving the cold shoulder?" "l'm not giving you..." "...the cold shoulder. I'm just mingling." "With everybody but me." "Am I the only one who remembers our earlier conversation?" "I'm just trying to forget it." "See, I'm hoping that we can come to some mutually agreeable solution for our little problem." "Plus, I wanna kick your ass in Monopoly." "Wanna play Monopoly?" "You guys ready to play?" "Come on, Dawson!" "You wanna play Monopoly, Dawson?" "Well?" "Okay. I' ll do it for the children." "So, what gives?" "I'm waiting to hear about this mystery boyfriend." "Greg?" "Well, not much to tell, really." "I mean, God knows why, but he is head over heels for me." "And he's perfect." "Jack's polar opposite, actually." "Gorgeous." "Wait a minute." "You don't think that Jack is gorgeous?" "Well, in a fratty sort of way, I guess." "But Greg, he's...." "He's James Dean, you know?" "I mean, brooding, tortured, deep." "Jack is brooding and tortured and deep." "I' ll take your word for it." "But Greg, he's perfect." "I mean, he's blond and beautiful, and...." "He's been out since, like, the age of 1 2." "And his mother is a famous lesbian who teaches feminist poetry at Harvard." "And he's totally smart." "And completely comfortable in who he is." "He's just a" " He's a man, you know?" "When are we gonna eat?" "I could eat the south side of a horse going north." "You know, it's not that bad." "I mean, we've been here for 45 minutes without a major crisis." "And only two hours to go." "At the most, three." "So legally, you' re not allowed to still be mad at me for throwing this thing." "l'm not mad at you." "You' re not?" "So, what's wrong?" "Why...?" "Why are you so upset?" "Well, I'm upset because...." "Because I didn't" "There's just a" "You didn't what?" "Could we not talk about this right here?" "Do you mind if we just take a little walk?" "Sneaking off to smoke some marijuana?" "What?" "Come sit on the couch." "I wanna talk to Joey." "Come on." "I just want to thank you for putting thoughts of college in my son's head." "Mr. Witter, while I'm happy Pacey wants to go to college I don't think that I can take all the credit for that." "Well, I gotta blame someone because Pacey's big dreams means I'm gonna have to finance another dropout's half-assed education." "Gretchen didn't drop out of school." "Oh, really?" "I didn't realize working as a barmaid in a fish restaurant qualified as a university education." "Then again, I'm just an uncouth, uneducated police officer putting his life on the line every day for the people of this town." "What do I know?" "l really don't think Pacey will be dropping out." "I think he's gonna do great in college." "Just you wait." "l appreciate the youthful optimism." "My prediction:" "If he doesn't drop out, he' ll flunk out." "It's a waste of his time and my money." "Oh, honey, just because Pacey flunked a class or two in high school doesn't mean he's gonna do the same thing in college." "Right, sweetie?" "But I have faith in you." "And I know that one day my faith will pay off." "So no matter how many times you let us down, sweetie my faith will be there to pick you right back up." "Your faith and my bank account." "Oh, John." "I'm just saying, Pacey should set his sights on something he can accomplish." "Like refrigeration and heating repair." "We always knew Gretchen was college material." "Oh, yeah." "But Pacey, you remember as a kid he wanted to be a veterinarian?" "You said-- l always said, " Dog groomer, honey." "What about dog groomer?"" "Exactly." "Someone has to be the dog groomer." "So, what exactly is the surprise you've got us waiting to see?" "Yeah." "We wanna play Monopoly." "Oh, patience, little ones. I have something better than Monopoly." "Watch this." "lt's cool, huh?" "Yeah." "lt's beautiful." "My grandmother your great-grandmother, gave me this gift when I was a little girl." "And we would sit down here for hours staring up at the stars." "And she would tell us a story." "It was about a princess named Isabella." "You see, Isabella was a star dancer." "And she was meant for a life dancing amongst the stars." "And she was blessed, because she could fly from star to star." "But she was cursed too." "Because for every star she'd visit, there'd be another one she left behind." "And that was her plight." "Forced to live eternity dancing amongst the stars free as a bird but alone." "lt's tragic, huh?" "Not really." "Think of all the stars she got to visit and how she knew the lives of the people she met there." "But Dawson, she leaves." "If Isabella visits, I don't want her to leave." "Oh, you don't, huh?" "Me either." "Me either." "Kids, come wash up for dinner!" "Oh, do we have to?" "We were just getting to the good part of the story." "What's wrong with you, ref?" "Doug, didn't I ask you to set up the card table, honey?" "Don't believe them, Pace." "You are gonna go to college and do amazing, you know that?" "And there's nothing that they can say about it." "You' re gonna shock them all." "I know you are." "Well, what if I don't?" "What if they are 1 00-percent correct?" "And I am simply too stupid to do anything worthwhile with my life?" "What are you talking about?" "Pace, what's going on?" "This can't just be about your birthday." "No, it's not just about my birthday." "Let's take this to the basement, huh?" "Wrong room." "Dinner, everyone!" "Come on!" "Come on, let's eat." "Yeah, I'm starved." "Okay, everybody." "In honour of Pacey's birthday, I have made his favourite." "Chipped beef on toast." "Nope." "That's Dougie's favourite." "Mine's spaghetti and meatballs." "When you were a little kid you always begged me to make chipped beef on toast." "That's right. I forgot." "I always pretended to hate chipped beef on toast in a vain attempt to mask my true feelings of love." "I love chipped beef on toast." "We've established that, Doug." "Thanks for the input." "Oh, nuts." "You know what I forgot?" "Spaghetti and meatballs." "Ketchup." "Joanna, will you go grab the ketchup?" "It's in the fridge." "Sure." "Can I have some?" "Dig in, everybody." "Yeah." "Here, honey." "No, it isn't." "Joey, hey." "Look, I'm really sorry that you had to find out about it like that." "l don't want you to be upset" "So are you guys dating now?" "Well, we" " This was gonna be our first date, but plans changed." "But you are a couple?" "We haven't defined the relationship." "But it is a relationship." "l don't know." "Listen" "Oh, found it." "Excuse me." "What the hell do we do now?" "I don't know. I think we can move beyond the "should we tell them" question." "She thinks we' re a couple now." "Did you tell her we were a couple?" "l told her we had a date." "You told her we were dating." "I told her we hadn't defined the relationship yet." "What'd she say?" "She said, "But it is a relationship."" "ls it a relationship?" "l know what I think." "I want to know what you think." "I don't know what I think." "Well, I think this was never about Pacey or Joey or your family or coming out of any closet." "I think this is about you." "And I think you need to figure out what you want." "Okay, let's talk about it." "No, let's not." "Today is not the day, Gretchen." "Any other day that I was to find you making out on the basement floor with Dawson, of all people, I would freak out." "Then we would have words." "But not today." "Today, I don't wanna talk about it, I don't wanna think about it." "I'd like to pretend it never even happened." "Frankly, I got bigger problems on my mind." "Which are?" "A conversation that I am supposed to have with Joey that will impact the rest of our relationship." "Not to mention explain why I've been in such a state of despair." "Pacey, what are you talking about?" "You know what my advice to you would be?" "Stick to your own dramas." "Because they are much more entertaining." "Pacey." "And then I realized that she doesn't love me." "She loves him." "That's why she was having sex with him in the bathroom." "There's gonna be beer bongs, keg stands, body shots." "You gotta come." "I think maybe we should get your friend home." "No, she's fine." "l think I'm gonna hurl." "Oh, no." "Open the next one." "Hurry!" "Look at the paper on that one." "It's an ashtray." "Yeah." "Thank you. I've been meaning to take up smoking." "That one's from me." "Wow, look at the wrapping paper." "That's huge." "Fireworks." "Cool." "How about tonight?" "Yeah." "It's just what I've always wanted." "Thanks, Pop." "You know, I recently read an article in Ladies' Home Journal that said a fun way to bond with your kids on their birthday was to recall a favourite memory from their childhood." "Oh, joy." "l guess I' ll go first." "And my memory would have to be when Pacey was a baby." "It was such a relief to finally have a late bloomer." "Never bothered anybody." "Used to fall asleep in cardboard boxes." "That's right!" "Who remembers the time we almost left Pace at 31 Flavours?" "l remember that." "Remember?" "We were driving away." "A lady flagged us down with Pacey just wailing in her arms." "I swear, we would have driven home before we realized he was gone." "He was so upset, he peed his pants." "Your uncle, he peed his pants." "Thanks for that one, Doug." "You like that, huh?" "You know my favourite Pacey memory?" "When I was in fifth grade, there was this bully named Max Brody." "He was the meanest kid you'd ever wanna meet." "And one day, he pushed me off the swing set." "Hard." "I split my lip open." "And Pacey, who was in second grade at the time was sitting over in the sandbox." "And when he saw Max push me, I've never seen anybody run so fast." "And he just started punching and kicking him screaming, "Stay away from my sister!"" "But that's Pacey." "The bravest guy I know." "Brave and foolish." "As I recall, Pacey came home crying because that bully beat the pulp out of him." "l remember that." "What about the time Pacey got up at 5:30 in the morning and decided to make pancakes..." "...for the whole entire family." "Come on." "But he set the kitchen on fire, and Scraps died of smoke inhalation." "All right, I have a Pacey story." "Oh, enough!" "Enough." "As much as I love being publicly eviscerated on my own birthday I think we can guess what the theme of this happy anecdote is gonna be:" "Pacey messes up yet again." "Am I right?" "Pacey kills the dog or pees his pants or pukes or gets the pulp beaten out of him." "But you know what else the theme might be?" "The theme of every birthday I've ever had?" "Or the theme of my entire life, for that matter." "No one gives Pacey a break." "Everybody expects the absolute worst." "Pacey gets the short end of the stick." "Pacey gets fireworks and an ashtray and chipped beef on toast for his birthday and harassed because, how dare he wanna go to college so he can possibly get out of this place?" "!" "But you know what?" "Your wallet can breathe easy." "I don't think I could go to college." "Because I found out today that the only school I thought would take me my fallback school, rejected me." "So I'm not going to college." "So I guess at the end of the day, you guys are right." "I'm gonna end up where you thought I would." "A complete and utter failure." "Pace?" "What are you doing?" "l'm going with you." "I think I can handle this on my own." "You don't have a car." "Pacey took yours." "Come on." "Let me take you." "Fine." "Are you gonna finish that?" "Are you done?" "Jen, cake." "You look hungry." "Oh, thank you." "You've had some, right?" "Yeah, thanks." "Excuse me." "Tobey." "What are you doing here?" "Why, I'm here to make you uncomfortable, of course." "I'm not uncomfortable." "So how's the club going?" "You mean the gay club?" "Where the gay kids hang out and be gay?" "It's doing smashing." "And what about that club of yours?" "What's it called? "Self-hatred and denial." How's that going, Jack?" "Yeah." "Excuse me." "For the record, I can honestly say that I don't care right now if you and Gretchen are a couple or dating or in a relationship or just periodically groping each other." "You guys can run off and elope for all I care." "l have bigger things on my mind." "Well, good because I have no idea if we' re dating or a couple or in a relationship." "Because she won't tell me." "And every time I get close to finding out, she freaks." "Well, that's the Witters for you, Dawson." "In relationships, they tend to keep their emotions close and their weaknesses closer." "And it's not because they don't care." "It's just.... lt's because they care so much, and...." "Well, the good news is, is that, eventually, they always tell the truth." "However, it's often after you've selfishly ignored all the signs that they've been suffering." "Joey, it's not your fault Pacey didn't get into college." "I know." "But it's my fault that he thinks that he disappointed me because I said that he'd definitely get in." "There's the Potters for you." "Believe in people more than they believe in themselves." "Character flaw." "We should probably just go back." "I don't think we' re ever gonna find him out here." "Hey." "Hey." "Thought you might be needing this." "Thank you." "Here." "How the hell did you know where l was?" "Didn't." "Station got a call from a houseboat about a creepy guy lurking on the dock." "So, what are you doing lurking on the dock?" "I just want to be close to the water." "You know, I never told this to anyone." "And I will personally hunt you down if you breathe it to a soul." "But I got rejected the first time I applied to the police academy." "You did?" "Yep." "Let me tell you, Pacey, it was devastating." "I know I'm not college material, Pop." "But I just really, really wanted it." "Now, look, son, I know that I've been hard on you about school." "It's not because I don't think you' re good enough to go or get in." "Pacey, I just don't know if it's the right thing for you." "I don't know if it's ever been right for you." "But ask me if I think that you' re meant to do great things...." "Now, by the way, I never did get to tell my " remembering Pacey" story." "It was about your 1 0th birthday." "I got you fireworks and you said it was the best present you ever got." "And we set them off out back, down by the water, and you...." "You were really happy, Pacey." "So I was too." "What would you think if I made this Responsible Ride activity..." "...a regular thing?" "What?" "This from the cynical Jen Lindley?" "I guess nothing is truly as it seems, huh?" "Kind of like how you were really mean to Jack because your whole beau Greg is just a fabrication." "What?" "Tobey, it's fine." "Okay?" "I mean, I know that you like Jack." "Why else would you have gone out of your way to be mean to him tonight?" "Why would you have invented this fictional character?" "I mean, come on, a James Dean clone?" "With an award-winning poet lesbian for a mom?" "l mean, it's too good to be true." "Yeah, but it was good." "When you dream, you dream big, huh?" "Listen my advice would be if you are interested in Jack, and-- Well, the best way to get in his life is to be his friend, and that requires being nice." "Now, I know this may be a new concept to you but I think you might find it effective." "You are such a bitch." "Right back at you." "Well, that's odd." "Where'd everybody go?" "My guess would be the Red Lobster to wash away all memory of Mom's chipped beef on toast." "Surprise!" "You know, I've been thinking." "You' re right." "Tonight, it wasn't about my family or Pacey and Joey." "It was about me." "See, I know how I feel about you, Dawson." "But I'm scared because, what if I leave soon?" "And as much as I wanna have this thing...." "Whatever it is with you..." "..." "I'm afraid I' ll hurt you when I go." "But Gretchen, I'm leaving too." "At the end of the year." "That's not the point." "The point is right now." "And right now you' re here, and so am I." "So let's make the most of this." "All right?" "And not be afraid." "Sometimes I don't know if you' re wise or just naive." "But I think it's wise." "The real question is, how did you get to be so fearless?" "I want Isabella's story to have a happy ending." "Me too." "Hey, Pace." "Hey." "I'm sorry I threw you such a bad party." "Well, that's not your fault." "It's the curse." "I know how you must be feeling." "You don't have to feel that way." "Because one...." "One rejection isn't anything." "It's definitely not the end of the world." "It's not really about the rejection." "That just makes it real." "You and I are just on opposite paths, Jo." "On different roads." "And we are heading farther and farther away from each other." "I don't think so." "I think both roads lead back to the same place, right here." "You and me, Pace." "That's the one thing that won't change." "Not if we don't let it." "It's getting harder and harder all the time" "Well, then we' ll try harder." "Hey, Pace?" "Yeah?" "Happy 1 8th birthday." "Okay, everybody, up to the hill!" "Let's light this big one!" "There it goes." "There it goes." "Look up there." "Happy birthday, Pace."

"Oh!" "Uh-oh, it's magic" "When I'm with you" " Oh, it's magic" " Uh-oh, it's magic" " Just a little magic" " You know it's true" "I got a hold on you" "Justin, I found your bag." "Mind if I tear through it and look at all your personal stuff?" "OK, thanks!" "No way!" "Ju..." "Justin!" "What is going on?" "Is everyone all right?" "Alex?" "Awesome!" "Dad, whatever it is can I keep it?" "I knew it!" "Alex was going through my bag, so I put a spell on it." "Deny it now." "Of course." "An enchanted messenger bag." "How did we ever manage without one?" "Hmm." "But we're going to have a great..." " Do it." " Let's watch her run around." "Magic was used to protect the bag." "Reverse the spell, release the hag." "OK, fine." "I went through your stupid bag." " "Hag?"" " Hmm." "But look at what I found." "The family wand and the book of forbidden spells." "Justin took it out of the lair without permission." "My respect for you is increasing." "I didn't take it." "Dad gave it to me." "And it's shrinking again." "Dad, how could you give this to Justin?" "It's forbidden." "You said that we weren't allowed to touch it." "You said that we weren't ready." "I think by "we" he meant you." "Alex, if one day, possibly, you pass and/or show up to an exam, you can use the spell book and the family wand, too." "It's just they're extremely powerful and it takes a certain level of responsibility..." "But I'm responsible enough." "I can be trusted." "I think this is completely unfair to me and Max." "Right, Max?" "Dude." "Max!" "Dude, you are so not helping right now." "And I'm so getting one of those!" "Well, I don't really have an opinion about the great wand whoop-de-do." "But if anybody should be playing nice right now, it's you." " Don't push." "We need to go, honey." " Yes, dear." "I'm going to need you to return the wand and spell book back to where you found them." "Thank you." "Fine." "I don't even want it anyway." "Total lie." "Wait." "Where's everybody going?" "Oh." "I want you guys done packing by the time we get back." "OK." "Dude, this is going to be the best vacation ever." "Are there going to be volcanoes?" " No." " Then how great can it be?" " Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Russo." " Oh hey, Harper." "That's..." "Hey, wha... what's Harper doing here?" "Oh, uh, right." "Listen, I was thinking since" " you're packing for a trip I don't have to go on, I..." " What did I just say to you?" "Uh, when?" "All the way back there?" "Don't push." "I already told you, you can't go to that party." "It's all the way in Brooklyn." "I don't know the girl's parents." "But Mom, everybody is going to this party." "That's true." "They've handed out like a thousand fliers." "Why are you destroying my life?" "Which is the same thing you said to me when I tried to "force" you to go on vacation with us." "Well, it worked then." "Alex, honey..." "I know that you're growing up and you want some independence and I know that you're gonna be fine at Harper's while we're gone." "But you have to understand that leaving you behind is very hard for me." "So just go easy on me, OK?" "Dad." "Please." "I'll just pop in." "It'll be so..." "Uh, no popping." "You heard what your mother said." "And just so we're clear... no walking, flying, teleporting or popping out of this building while we're gone." " Is that understood?" " Understood." "OK." "Sorry about that." "That's OK." "We can still find something super fun yet age-appropriate to do." "Oh no, we're still going." "But your parents said we can't leave the building." "Exactly." "For the record, I just want to say" "I think this is a really, really bad idea." "Only if by bad you mean genius." "I love loopholes." "Alex!" "Can we slow this thing down?" "Yeah, no." "When they put the tables in they must have taken the controls out." "But don't worry, it's enchanted and knows where it's going." "Then why are we heading uptown?" "Forty-second." "Forty-ninth." "Fifty-seventh." "Brooklyn's in the other direction on the other side of the river." "Stupid spells." "Hang on." "Oh, wait." "My bad." "I had the map upside down." "All right." "Misguided directions we shouldn't have taken." "Hurry up and get us to Bergen Street Station." "These forbidden spells are so super user-friendly." "Oh!" "Forbidden spells?" "Why would you use something called a forbidden spell?" "It's forbidden and I know this because it's right there in the title." "It's really not a big deal when you have the right wand." "Well, do you?" "No." "Apparently it's too powerful and I'm not responsible enough and I can't be trusted, whatever that means." "You go first!" "You go first!" "Alex!" "Oh, my God!" " No!" "What are you..." " Harper!" "Seriously!" "Who designed this subway?" "I did it." "I can't believe I did it." "I saved us." "I can't believe it." "No you didn't." "I did." "Oh, Justin, thank you, thank you, thank you!" "Harper, don't thank him." "He just did it so he can run off and tell on me." "OK, normally, yeah, I would do that." "It's pretty funny when she gets all..." "But I'm not about to go tell Mom and Dad something that's going to ruin their vacation before it happens." "I'm not gonna let you destroy something important to me." "They're not gonna hear it from me." "Know why they're not going to hear it from me?" "Didn't we just have this conversation?" "Because I just did my first spell using a full-powered wizard wand." " And if I must say..." " He must." "...It went perfectly." "Oh." "Almost perfectly." "OK." "Well..." "Bye." "I'm really sorry you can't stay with me anymore." "Oh!" "No." "I was never really going to get to stay with you." "She's just been planning this all along." "And she's just using my innocent borrowing of the diner as an excuse." "You know that's not true." "You love your mom." "I didn't say that I didn't." "I just..." "I just don't want to spend two weeks in full-on family mode." "Are you guys going to wear matching outfits?" "'Cause that would be bad." "One of these days I'm going to win the wizard competition and I'm going to be the full wizard." "Well, what if you fall in love with a mortal and have to give up your powers like your dad did?" "I still can't believe he did that." "I can." "I love that story." "It sounds so romantic." "It was." "Do you need any help?" "No." "I most definitely do not need your help." "Well..." "Bye." "Fine." "But one of these days" "I just might not be there to offer it." "Mom." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean it like that." "I know what you meant." "Finish packing." "Done." "Undone." "See what I just did there?" "It's called lightening the mood." "I hope you got it out of your system because I've declared this vacation magic-free." "Hand it over." "So I'm going to need your wands." "What?" "I can't give up my wand." "Dad, there are so many spells I haven't even gotten a chance to do yet." "Max." "Goats?" "They were supposed to be tigers." "OK, if I give you my wand, I'll only be able to do hand magic." "The idea is no magic." "I can't just not do magic for two weeks." "We're going to the Caribbean." "That's one of the most magical places in the entire universe." "This is because of Alex, isn't it?" "Justin." "It's not always because of..." "Well, OK, yes." "Just give me the wand." " Come on." " Come on." " Give me the wand." " Give me the wand." "All right." ""Sticky note to self:" "Do not forget sticky notes. " Ah!" "OK, it's time, people!" "Everybody ready?" "Ready!" "Eh, who needs underwear?" "Ready!" "Ready!" "Ready?" "Smile!" "Tell me this is not the cutest thing you've ever seen." "Yeah..." "Sorry." "A real family vacation." "This is going to be so much fun!" "You guys are going to love this resort." "It has everything." "Oh yes, it's beautiful." "You know it's where your father and I first met each other." "She's going to tell it." "Oh, please don't tell it." " Did I ever tell you the story?" " And she's telling it." "It was the summer after I'd graduated from college..." "I was lying by the pool, right?" "And I'd just ordered this papaya smoothie." "It was a guava smoothie." "Actually, it was a guava smoothie." "No, no, no, no." "Why would I order a guava smoothie?" "I don't even like guavas." "So somehow I spilled papaya all over your father's shirt." "Guava." "Oh, but then I looked up into his eyes and I knew." "Híjole, this is the man for me." " It was love at first sight." " Oh." "No visuals, please." "Or audio." "We're here!" "I have never been more happy to be somewhere" "I didn't want to be in my entire life." "Hola." "Welcome to paradise." "And the happiness continues." "Sweet!" "Uh-uh, put that back." "Are those included in the price?" "Yes." "Of course." "Welcome to the Caribbean." "Everybody take two." " Gracias." " Enjoy." "I'll just take the whole tray." "Well, I'm Javier." "I'm one of the activities counselors here." "Well, that's great because I already know the first thing I'd like you to do." " Would you take our picture?" " Yeah." "Of course." "Smile." "Say, "paradise. "" " Paradise." " Not likely." "Oh Jerry, look, it's that little gift shop where we bought those coconut monkeys!" "Remember?" " Let's take a picture of it." " I love those monkeys." "Great outfits." "What is going on?" "Where's everybody going?" "I'm going snorkeling." "Once you get used to swimming in a fish's toilet bowl," " it's awesome." " To see the ruins." "The most important battles of the Troll wars were fought there." "I don't know, but I'm getting out of here." "No." "No." "No." "This is a family vacation." "Your mother's right." "We should be doing everything together." "With you?" "In public?" "Looking like that?" "So we're all in agreement." "Magic Carpet Ride]" "You don't know what we can find" "Why don't you come with me a little while" "On a magic carpet ride" " I like to dream, yes" " Get up there!" " I'm gonna beat you, Justin!" " Get up there!" "Right between my sound machine" "Come on, Alex!" "You got to at least try, honey!" " Oh!" " Whoo-hoo!" "Goes far, flies near" "To the stars away from here" "Well you don't know what we can find" "Why don't you come with me a little while" "On a magic carpet ride" "You don't know what we can see" "Why don't you tell your dreams to me" "Fantasy will set you free" "Close your eyes now" "Look inside now" "Let the sound take you away" "Last night I held Aladdin's lamp" "And so I wished that I could stay" "Before the thing could answer me" "Well someone came and took the lamp away" " I looked around" " I looked" "A lousy candle's all I found" "Well, you don't know what we can find" "Come back here!" "Come back with my helmet!" "Come with me a little while On a magic..." "Muchas gracias." "Oh, Alex, honey, don't you just love the ancient walls and the cobblestone streets?" "You know your dad and I walked these very streets on one of our very first dates?" "Hmm." "It must have been pretty when it was new." "Hey." "This attitude of yours, that's what's getting old." "I'm sorry, but it's just memory lane is turning out to be the longest road ever." "When are we going to do something I want to do?" "You're right." "You're right." "We haven't got to do something you want to do." "You get to choose next, all right?" "Did I mention Javier teaches windsurfing?" "Theresa, look." "Oh!" "My favorite earrings." "Oh dude, check it out." "Top 100 must-see wizard sightings on the island." "I wonder why we haven't been to any yet?" "Oh, wait." "I know." "Ladies and gentlemen for just one moment prepare..." "Fine." "You want magic?" "There's your magic." "And now the beautiful Gisele will find your card, sir." "Your card." "Here we go." "Are you ready?" "Yes, you will." "Remember what it is?" "OK, there you go." "Just..." "Not that one." "Which one do you think it is?" "Not that one." "No, wrong one." "Go ahead." "Try again." "Eight of clubs." "The one I'm shoving in your mouth." "Like we rehearsed." "There it is!" "The eight..." "Oh." "She dropped it." "Hang on." "Eight of clubs!" "Amazing!" "What do you say?" "Pretty amazing is what I say." "Pretty pathetic is what I say." "Anybody?" "Anybody?" "You know what the problem is with you two?" "You don't know how to make your own fun." "Excuse me, sir." "I'd like to volunteer." "OK." "I wasn't really aware I was asking for volunteers." "Right." "Got any money?" "Yes." "Hope that didn't break you." "Right." "First of all, I will need your drink." " Why?" " Because I'm doing eight shows a day in the blazing sun." "Here." "Try and blow this up." "Strong lungs?" "Now, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, the incredible needle through balloon." "The needle through..." "Oh, yeah." "By the way, if you happen to see la policía anywhere, don't keep it to yourselves, OK?" "'Cause we're having issues." "Thanks." "Needle through the balloon." "OK, that was weird." "Whoa, watch out." "Max." "Oh, yeah." "Now that's a great trick." "Whoa!" "Oh!" "Thank you." "That was good, right?" "I totally meant for that to happen." " Nicely done." " Thank you!" "That's got to be worth something." "Oh, thank you." "Thank you." "Anything else?" "Oh, brilliant." "You're awesome." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Kiddo!" "Hey, hold on!" "I want to talk to you." "Just hold on a second!" "Hold..." "Yeah, all right." "I'm going." "Hello, Bert." "How's the missus?" "Excuse me." "Nice truncheon." "Hey!" "Come back!" "What were you thinking?" "Is it my fault that the guy's a great magician?" "All right." "Look, I'm sorry, but it was just training magic." "It's no big deal." "I promise you nobody's going to figure out that we're wizards." "You're wizards!" "Maybe just one person." "What?" "No." "Uh..." "That's funny." "But we are most definitely not..." "Don't..." "Don't even try it." "You think if I could actually do that trick," "I'd be hustling tourists for loose change?" "Hidden talents." "Come on, kids, let's go." "What?" "No, no, wait, wait!" "I forgot the most important part." "We're wizards, too." "You're wizards?" "Uh, I don't think so." "Well, not now." "I mean, obviously." "Yeah, but we were." "I swear." "Wizard's honor." "I was born a wizard, but I lost out at the family wizard competition to my know-it-all older brother." " I know the feeling." " The poor lovely Gisele, here, was transformed into her current feathery state by an evil..." "Ow." "Not telling that part of the story." "Well, uh, it was nice running into you and good luck with the whole magic thing." ""Pick a card. " It's great." "Everybody into the van." "Wait!" "I could, uh, I could show you some of the wizarding sights." "I am also an excellent, reasonably-priced tour guide." "Tips are greatly encouraged." "That actually sounds cool." "I was just talking..." "Oh, no." "It's Alex's turn to choose." "And I just know she's gonna pick something really far away from here." "Come on." "When did we decide it was Alex's..." "What if my choice is to watch Justin's lip quiver and beg?" "Oh." "Come on, honey." "Sorry." "I could show you La Piedra de los Sueños." "The Stone of Dreams?" "I know where it is." "We have a map." "That's, like, the most important wizard artifact ever." "It can do anything." "Yeah." " You know where it is?" " Yes." "Dad." "He's got a map to the Stone of Dreams." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "So does every other wizard gift shop in town." "And every year two or three idiot wizards go la-di-da-ing through the forest trying to find the stone." "And they usually end up dead." "Please." "OK, we're desperate." "We've been on this island for years hoping to find a wizard who could help us." "The stone is our only hope of restoring Gisele back to her former, beautiful self." "Not that you're not beautiful right now." "You're beautiful." "You're gorgeous In this light." "I'm sorry." "It's just too dangerous." "Come on, Justin." "Let's go." "You're in the middle seat." "Yeah, I know." "But what other choice did I have?" "I mean, if they..." "Right." "But I know..." "I have a..." "If you'd just listen..." "I know what I'm doing." "Yes, there's a first time for everything." "Very funny." "Whoa!" "Are you OK?" "Are you OK?" "Don't worry, you'll be fine." "Though you might need a few more lessons." "Not at these prices." "I wasn't good my first time either, so..." "I'm just having a little problem with the wind part." " And the surfing part." " Oh." "And the standing up part." "Hey Alex!" "Watch and learn!" "Just like always." "Way to go, Justin!" "Great job!" "Forbidden-smidden." "Though a surfboard I might be a mess on, my brother is in need of a lesson." "Whoa..." "How do you slow down on this thing?" "Go back!" "Big wave!" "How do I stop?" "He's got the wand." "Wow!" "Nice one, Justin!" "That's awesome!" "He's a natural!" "Yeah, natural idiot." "Whoa..." "Go back!" "Go back!" "Turn to the wind to slow down." "Which way is the wind?" "I can't see!" "Watch it." "OK, watch it." "Watch out!" "Watch it!" "Watch out!" " Oh!" " Ooh!" "Well, every castle needs a princess, huh?" "No?" "OK." "but you know, she was OK, right?" "Yeah, but poor Alex." "Glad you guys are having such a good time." "Alex." "There's a party down at the beach later." "Any chance I could talk you into going with me?" "A huge chance." "Unfortunately, my mother isn't so easily persuaded." "But I'll work something out." "Cool." "I'll see you then." "What are you working out?" "Um, how sweet I have to be for you to let me go to this party tonight." "With him?" "It's so not happening." "Why can't I go?" "Alex." "First of all, we..." "all of us, together..." "We're on vacation, honey." "More like a never-ending photo shoot." "I am trying to create memories." "And second, I said no." "You don't need to be spending any more time with that boy." "But you don't even know him." "I know that he's too old for you." "That he probably hits on every girl that comes to this resort." "And, at best, he's just trying to hustle you into taking more windsurfing lessons." "A party I must attend, on that we can't agree." "But for a refreshing change, today you'll side with me." "You know what?" "You're young." "Go!" "Have a good time." "What am I saying?" "Absolutely not." "Come on, everybody's waiting." "Dang it." "Not enough juice." "We were sitting right here when I told your mother I was a wizard." "Yes." "And he also told me that he loved me." "Dad, why would you do something like that?" "Didn't you know you were going to have to give up your magic?" "Well, I knew it was an important decision, but I also knew that we could make some magic of our own." "Well, that was beautiful." "Really guys." "I'm tearing up." "Pork?" "You Justin?" "Good." "Let's go." "I know you have the wand." "What?" "No, no, no." "I don't have the wand." "I don't know why you'd think I had the wand." "I wouldn't take the wand because that would be..." " You went through my stuff again." " Didn't have to." "There's no way you could stay on that windsurfer." "Well, the wind was blowing really hard." "What was I..." "You?" "No, no, no." "That's impossible." "You can't do weather spells unless you have a wand." "Or you use..." "You have the spell book." "You're not even going to try to deny it?" "Why?" "OK, so here's the fun blackmailing part." "Let me use the wand or I'll tell Dad you really did take it without permission this time." "Fine, then I'll tell Dad you took the book." "So?" "I'm not the good one." "Please?" "I found this amazing "agreement spell"" "that'll make Mom and Dad agree to anything for six hours." "But I don't have enough power on my own." "I need the wand." "So just tell me." "I already have the power." "Fine." "You sneak out of dinner, do a forbidden spell and risk eternal grounding." "Right." "You do the spell." "I'll go keep Mom and Dad busy." "OK." "A party I must attend, on that we can't agree." " But for a refreshing change..." " Alex?" "Mom?" "What are you doing here?" "The minute Justin tried to magically glue me to my chair," "I knew something was up." "You will not stop, will you?" "Well, what am I supposed to do?" "Since you've decided you wanted to control every single second of my life." "Please." "Do you think I'm doing this for me?" " Like you're actually pleasant to be around?" " I am 16." "You can't keep telling me what to do." "Watch me." "For the rest of this trip you are going to be pleasant and present..." "You can't make me." "When we get home, you are grounded for two months." "That's right." "No dating." "No parties." "No magic." " Mom!" " Not another word." "I've had it." "Now put that stuff away." "Ooh, I hate you!" "I wish you and Dad had never even met!" "Mom?" "Yes, yes." "OK." "Thank you." "Muchas gracias." "Oh." " Is everything OK?" " Yes." "You startled me." "I didn't think you'd get here so quickly." "I was just next door." "Well, like I told the guy at the front desk, they accidentally brought some guy's luggage to my room." "Get rid of it, will you?" "You're a little young to be a concierge." "Concierge?" "I bet that means you know where all the hot spots are, am I right?" "I'll definitely be calling you later." "And if you see the, uh, maid, tell her I need more towels." "Oh!" "Justin!" " Justin!" " Alex!" "Alex, what happened?" "Uh, nothing." "Why?" "Does something seem wrong?" "Where's Dad?" "I don't know." "He left and then Mom left and no one came back." "Did you do the spell?" "I did a spell." "Oh, there's Dad." "Hold on." "Hey, uh, I think I'm going to skip out on all the family stuff and, um, just focus on the wizard ruins." "Cool?" "Uh, sounds good, dude." "You know, like I always say, do what you got to do." "Bring it and..." "Later." "Did Dad just call me "dude?"" "Uh... dibs." "Why are Mom and Dad acting like they don't know each other?" "And why is Dad using magic?" "Dad is not supposed to have magic." "Mmm." "And why is he giving flowers to other girls?" "Alex, what did you do?" "See?" "This is what you get for letting me use the wand." "Are you sure this is where you left them?" "Yes." "The world went all and then I threw the wand and the book right there." "Oh." "Hey, guys." "Thanks for ditching me back at the restaurant." "Alex, do you want to tell our little brother what you did?" "She got in a huge fight with Mom and Dad and used the family wand..." " That you gave me." " This is not my fault!" "To wish that Mom and Dad had never met and now they haven't." "It's exactly like 20 years ago." "They don't know each other and they don't know us." "Huh." "So we have no parents anymore?" "Well, I'm confused." "I mean, is this a good thing or a bad thing?" " Kid's got a point." " This is a very, very bad thing." "And once again proves why I don't do bad things because whenever I do, more bad things happen." "So you're admitting that this is kind of your fault." "I can only think of one place where they'd be." "You're cute." "You know that?" "See?" "There's the book." "Since he hasn't met Mom, he hasn't had to give up his powers yet." "He's still a full wizard." "Well, then, we should get the book and figure a way to reverse the spell." "If we still want it reversed." " Yes." " I'm just checking." "You're both making this way too complicated." "There's Mom, all right?" "She'll know who I am." "Mom." "Hey." "Uh..." "What?" "What?" "Don't you recognize me?" "Oh." "Should I?" "Yeah." "Yeah, you should." "It's me." "Max." "Maximum." "Maximilian?" "You know, "The cutest little guy in the whole world. "" "Or was that just a bunch of words to you?" "Oh." "Gosh, if I had known there'd be this many kids around," "I'd never would have booked this place." "Wait." "Wait, wait, wait." "You really don't recognize me?" "No idea." "I'm sorry." "Excuse me." "Wait!" "Mom, no!" "Max!" "Hey, Alex." "Oh, uh, Javier." "Look, I'm sorry." "Something popped up." "I can't go." " Hey, no worries." "Some other time, right?" " OK." "But let me know if you want some more lessons because if you buy five you get an amazing discount, all right?" "Help me." "Ow!" " Let go of me right now!" " Hurt, angry, plotting revenge and oddly disappointed I don't have a mother to say, "I told you so. "" " Oh!" " Please!" " Mom, no!" " I'm sorry." "Sorry." "He has, um, abandonment issues." "Let go of me right now." "Mom." "Mom?" "Security!" "Just a simple levitation spell." "Please." "It's my specialty." "You have no specialty." "Ah!" "Here we go." "Nobody touches the book." "I totally got you." "You're eyes were like "Oh..." "What's he gonna do?"" "All right." "So, uh, what do I got here?" "A couple of young wizards trying to pull a prank?" " Something like that." " Excellent." "You know what?" "I turned my math teacher into a golden retriever one time..." "Never got caught." "Played fetch a lot in the class." "You know, roll things up and threw it." " One order of grande nachos." " Oh." " Muchas gracias." " De nada." "The portions here are really small." "You just did magic for fun." "And for cheese dip." "You guys want something?" "You hungry?" "It's on me." "It's just money, right?" "Where was that attitude when I wanted my own phone?" "I know, right?" "Parents can be such jerks." "Hey, for no particular reason, just making conversation here," "I don't suppose you have a titanium wand on you?" "I so do!" "I'm my family's wizard." "I, uh, I've got more power than you could ever imagine." "Pretty cool, huh?" "You know, people say that magic isn't that important." "But guess what?" "They're liars." "It totally is!" "Here." "Magic is awesome." "Check it out." " Excuse me." " Yeah." "The front desk just called." "They're getting that luggage out of your room." "Guys, that's our stuff." " Since you're a full wizard, can I ask you a question?" " Sure." "Suppose, uh, a young, stupid, selfish, inexperienced..." "He gets it." "...wizard accidentally wished that her parents never met before." "What do you do to fix that?" "I have no idea." "I'm glad that wasn't on my exam." "They'd have to do something pretty fast." "You know, to prevent any serious, permanent damage." " Serious?" " Permanent?" " Damage?" " Yeah, you know, uh..." "Let's say these people had kids..." "Oh!" "I love this song!" "Shake it." "Shake." "So eventually reality would catch up with the kids and they'd disappear forever." "No meet." "No kids." "This is simple magic logic." "Who is your teacher?" " How soon exactly?" " I don't know." "Like 48 hours?" "Forty-eight hours?" "Forty-eight hours?" "But they'd know before it was going to happen because they'd start forgetting everything about their past." " Can't remember when I was ten." " I don't remember your birthdays." " Did I have a tenth birthday?" " They'd need a miracle." "All right, well, it was nice chatting with you guys." "I hear there's a kicking party down on the beach." "Later!" "A miracle or La Piedra de los Sueños." "The Stone of Dreams?" "Yeah, that'd do it." "You know, I hear it can grant any wish or reverse any spell." "Oh man, that'd be fun trying to find that." "Isn't it dangerous, though?" "So?" "Is he always like this?" "Ooh!" "I almost forgot my nachos." "Alex." "Alex!" "OK, I'm up." "I'm up." "Uh..." "Mom and Dad are gone." "Uh, what's your plan?" "Oh." "Oh I get it." "You thought you would just wake up and problem solved." " Of course I would think of something." " Kind of hoping..." "All right, guys." "Come on." "We're all going to disappear." "Justin?" "Of course I thought of something." "OK, Alex and I are going to find the Stone of Dreams." "Max, stay and make sure that Mom and Dad don't get into trouble." "Trouble?" "They're old." "What kind of trouble you think they're going to get into?" "Hmm." "I don't know." "Meet other people, fall in love, have kids..." "Oh, OK." "All right, I'll keep an eye on them." "Here you go." "I can't believe it." "The map to the Stone of Dreams." "I knew you'd call." "That you wouldn't let us down." "You know, when I told you about the map, Gisele's feathers were all in a ruffle, weren't they?" "She never thinks I know what I'm doing." "This is a flier for an all-you-can-eat special at the Crab Shack." "Ooh!" "Ooh!" "Ooh, don't want to lose that." "Best flan on the island." "Ah, here we go." "Are you sure this is the map?" "Only one of its kind in the entire world." "Hey, guys." "Look what I just bought." "A map to the Stone of Dreams." "Pretty cool." "You guys totally inspired me." "Fingers-crossed." "I'll let you know what I find out." "Where's Max?" "Jerry, wait up." "I swear they're like cockroaches." "You corner one and the other one takes off in the opposite direction." " Jerry!" " The only map in the world, huh?" "In my defense, I haven't showered in, like, two days." "The reason the other maps don't work is because no one knows the right place to start." "All right, people, let's move." "There's not a lot of time." "Which way?" "There's all this writing, but it doesn't even make sense." "Because it's in Spanish, which you've only been taking since first grade." "Oh." "I kind of peaked at "Habla Inglés?"" "I know, but our options were rather limited." "It says that the path will only reveal itself to those whose intentions are pure." "So me, obviously." "Normally, I'd object, but even I can't make that argument." "OK." "Show me the way." "Open up." "Reveal the path." "Show me the way." "Open up." "Reveal the path." "Maybe, um..." "Maybe I translated it wrong." "Here, hold this." "I'll get my Spanish dictionary." "I did it!" "That was easy." "It must have been a delayed reaction from what I... from what I did." "Yes." "Onward." "I'm..." "Hold on." "Oh." "I do apologize." "You're getting wet." "In a rain forest, while we're trying to save you." "So, hey." "Stone of Dreams." "One wish per wizard." "You guys get to restore your family, the beautiful Gisele becomes herself again, and, uh... what do I use it for, though?" "That's the question, isn't it?" "I know nobody asked." "But if they did..." "I said "if. "" "You know what?" "Forget it." "No, it's going to be a surprise." "I'm not going to say." "No, I'm not pouting." "How did she get turned into a bird anyway?" "Oh, it's... it's really quite a story." "Ow!" "Ow!" "Finger!" "Blood!" "Pain!" "I don't know really." "Oh!" "Justin!" "Sorry." "I'm just trying to make sure that we're headed in the right..." "Double waterfall!" "Yes!" "We're headed in the right direction." "Perfect." "Headed in the right direction." "Hey, I've got an idea." "Why don't I lead and you follow?" "Um, maybe because you can't read a map or a compass or Spanish." "Well, I know enough not to walk into a giant spider web." "Get it off me!" "Get it off!" "Get it off!" "Oh, that never gets old." "You were screaming like a little girl." "Get it off me!" "Get it off me!" "That doesn't count." "I actually am a little girl." " We'll never speak of this again." "Agreed?" " Agreed." "Yeah, this might actually take a little longer than I thought." "But trust me, OK." "Trust me." "Don't shake." "You're so negative." "I have a good feeling about this." "As long as we stick close and never let them out of our sight..." "Where'd they go?" "Hello?" "Where did all this rain come from?" "Yeah, I know it's a rain forest." "I told you that earlier." "Do you have to parrot everything I say?" "Oh, sorry." "All right, we should be headed six degrees north by northeast." "We just follow this path all the way..." "Stop!" "Yeah, about here." "Um, OK." "Now we need to change directions." " I think..." " Justin." "We're kind of in a hurry here." "Time rippling." "Us disappearing." "You can't go two seconds without criticizing me, can you?" " What?" " You're right." "I can't." "The will to mock is just too great." "Could we please just do this my way?" "Why do we have to do everything the way you do magic?" " You mean perfectly?" " I mean annoyingly." "There's a right way to do things and that's the way I like to do them." "Another 20 feet in this direction." "You know, you might want to try it sometime." "Why are you getting taller?" "Oh, because you couldn't stop being perfect long enough to realize that you're standing in quicksand." "Alex!" "Help me!" "Please!" "Help me!" "Get me out of here!" "Help me, please!" "Grab onto my hand." "Grab my hand." " OK." " Not funny!" "Now maybe we can get someplace, huh?" "OK." "So we're here and we need to get there." " You're holding it upside down!" "Grab onto something!" " Oh!" "Well, that makes it better." " Not really." " I'm sinking!" "Needs one of those little "x" thingies, like at the mall." "Alex, grab onto something!" "I'm sinking!" "Here we are." ""Bottomless Pit of Death. "" "We need to go towards some squiggly things." "They're called mountains!" "Alex, seriously." "It's..." "OK." "Sure." "Mountains." " There's animals in here!" " Oh, wait." "There they are." "That was easy." "OK." "Help me out now." "Grab something." " Fine." " A branch." "Part of a tree." "Help me, Alex." "Come on." "Help me." "You've got it." "Please." "Will let me be in control of the map?" "No." "Why would I put you in charge?" "Just give me the stick!" "You know, I hear the more you struggle the faster you sink." "It's amazing what I retain, huh?" " Fine, fine." "Whatever you want." "Just give me the stick." " Promise?" "Yes." "No." "Yes, yes, I promise." "OK." "Come on." "Pull." "OK, pull." "Oh, thank goodness." "There you are." "Thought I'd lost you." "Did I miss anything?" "Not a thing." "All right, people!" "Let's move." "This way." " The other way." " The other this way." " What does that mean?" "Coconut?" " No." "Uh, one guava smoothie, please." "Uh, we don't make guava smoothies." "Sorry." "Well then, what am I drinking?" " Papaya." " Papaya." "I love the way you say that." "All these years." "Get your fruits straight, man." " What?" " What?" "Nothing." " Thank you." " You're welcome." "Gracias." "Hey, why don't you take this over to that, um, girl for me?" "You know, she was kind of asking about you earlier." "Who is that?" "Is that your mom?" "What?" "What?" "No!" "No." "Unless you think she is and memories are flooding back." "You know, you're a weird little kid, you know that?" "Yeah, I get that a lot." "So..." "Hmm?" "No." "I'm good." "Oh." "No worries." "No worries." "I'm just saying you could do a lot better." "Between you and me?" " She's kind of a dog." " Oh, come on, buddy." " What?" " She's..." " Have you looked at her?" " Yes, I have and she's hot." "She's..." "Oh." "Um, that's not funny." "OK, it's a little funny." "You stole that from me." "All right." "Joke's over." "Turn her back before somebody sees." "All right." "I will." "As soon as you take this over there." "Fine." "But I don't know why you want me to..." "What is the matter with you?" "I'm so sorry." "I actually was bringing that drink to you." "Why?" "So you could throw it on me?" "Wait." "This is supposed to be the other way around." "I'm seriously..." " Oh!" " Oh!" "I'm so sorry." "I don't know why I just did that." "Oh, you don't know why you did." " You just pick it up and then you..." " No." "You know what?" "Um, it's OK." "Let's just call it even." "No, I wasn't trying to make things even." "I..." "No." "I meant, seriously." "I mean it." "It's fine." " OK." " It's OK." "Sorry." " What are you doing?" "That's it?" " What's the matter with you?" "Oh." "You like her, right?" "Then why don't you go after her?" "Cute and feisty?" "Those are the most dangerous." "I could really fall for her." "You know, if she was a wizard." "What does that matter?" "I told you." "I'm a full wizard." "I'm not going to give up my powers for some mortal." " You don't understand..." " Oh, this is sticky now." " This is sticky." " You..." "Why do I feel like there was something I was supposed to do?" " Ow." " You OK?" "If Mom was still Mom, this would've never happened." "She would've told me to put on bug spray." "So?" "You wouldn't have listened to her." "True, but at least she'd be telling me, "I told you so. "" "I miss her condescending tone and her superior attitude." "Remind you of anybody?" "Yes." "Mom." "Aren't you listening to me?" "But I'm sure if we just asked them not to say anything..." "Yeah, yeah, but I know." "I know you were sentenced to 50 years in feathers." "But maybe they couldn't find us if we moved to some remote jungle somewhere." "Just you and me." "But if we take the stone first they'll disappear forever." "Which is why it's the perfect plan." "It really is the perfect plan." "You're kind of good at this, aren't you?" "Right." "I hate it when we fight, too." "How are we going to get across this thing?" "There's no way." "It's impossible." "We're totally, completely, hopelessly doomed." "Oh, wait, there's instructions." "It's that positive attitude I most admire about you, Justin." "It says we have to build, uh, uh... a path of stone." "That's not going to happen." " With magic." " That might happen." "I may not be a full wizard." "I might not have a family wand." "And you were no help whatsoever." "But you got to admit, this, uh, this is pretty impressive." "All it takes is a superior knowledge of hand magic and two semesters of Advanced Placement Geometry." "What?" "No, uh..." ""Loser?"" "No eye-rolling?" ""Get a life. "" "What was that?" ""Thank you, Justin." "You've saved us." "You're my hero. " Well, you're welcome." " Good job." " Righty-o." "What?" "What's a pebble going to do to my..." "And may I be the first?" "Loser." "OK." "You know, maybe we're just going to hang back here for a few moments and stay out of your way." "No reason for all of us to plummet to our deaths, right?" "Admit it." "It's not a bad idea." "It's just a simple levitation spell." "Yes, yes." "You're brilliant." "Focus." "Don't..." "Don't look down!" "That's a long way down." "Why do you always get so mad every time I do something right?" "Because it's like you don't even try." "You don't even think about it." "Not thinking works for me." "Exactly." "And it's not fair." "I know everything there is to know about magic and you just come along and..." "and you do it." "Which is why I have to study all the time." "Usually I'm all, "Family wizard." "How could it not be me?"" "And then you come along and do something like this." "Trust me, you're not gonna lose." "You'll be the family wizard." "Do you even want it?" "Alex!" "Ooh!" "Oh, that was close." "I don't know." "I don't think I do." "Why?" "I know why I do." "I'd be nothing if I wasn't a wizard." "Magic is the one thing that I'm really, really good at." "Please." "You're good at everything." "I hope they make it." ""Justin's so perfect." "Why can't you be more like Justin?"" " Who says that?" " Besides you?" "Everyone." "Mom and Dad." "Well, they wouldn't say that if I wasn't so perfect." "You know that's not true." "They love you regardless." "You know that goes both ways." "Alex!" "They're almost there." "Good job." "We both did a good job." "Hello!" "Hello!" "Don't forget your loyal and trusty guides." "Could you just send the rocks back?" "Uh..." "There's not enough time." "We'll come back for you after we get the stone." "Bye!" "Yes, in retrospect, maybe not taking the lead wasn't a very good strategy." "What?" "Down there?" "Well, it does seem to be the only way..." "Have I ever mentioned my fear of heights?" "Not caring." "OK." "Fine." "What?" "I'm going." "I'm going." "Just because you can fly..." "Namaste, baby!" "Good class." "There you are!" "OK, where have you been?" " See you, Jerry!" " Call me." "Yoga lesson." "Which is just fancy stretching if you ask me." " But I mean..." " Oh." " Look at the..." " Really?" "That's great." "It sounds like you've just got money to burn." "Hey, if you go to the restaurant tonight, don't order the noodles." "Because at 9:00 they're going to turn into worms." "People are gonna freak." " Hmm." "Really?" "Really?" "Pasta into worms." " Yeah." "The dad that I know would never let me get away with something like that." "I know." "Mine either." "Hey, you from New York?" "Well, me too." "Hi, Jerry." " Yeah." "I guess." " Hey!" "Actually, I'm not sure where I was born." "Do you remember me?" " You see, I..." " Nice suit." "Oh, Theresa." "Where are you going?" "None of your business." " Look, I know what this is about." " You do?" "Yes." "You're trying to set me up with your friend." "Trust me, he couldn't be less interested." "What?" "No." "That's not true at all." "In fact, he told me that you were his type." " Really?" " Yeah." "Well, it doesn't matter, because I've already made plans." "With who?" "Uh..." "All set." "The boat is ready for us." "Thank you." "Oh, um, that boat?" "Yeah..." "Would you excuse me for just one moment?" "Please?" "You warm enough?" "Justin, what if we don't get the stone in time and we can't save everyone?" "Don't worry about it." "We will." "How do you know that?" "Because it's you and I. How can we not?" "You know, um, I think this is the longest you've ever gone..." "Wait..." "This is the longest you've ever gone without making fun of me." "It's true." "I knew there was something I was supposed to do." " Mmm." " Where do you want me to start?" "No, no, no." "I actually kind of like this." "Let's try this." ""Only those whose intentions are pure. "" "How come you could open the gate today and I couldn't?" "I don't know." "All I kept thinking about was saving our family." "I was thinking about that, too." "And how great it would be if I was the one to do it." "There's my answer." "You're a great wizard, Justin." "I just know a bunch of spells." "How does that make me great?" "That isn't why I think you're great." "You're always there for me." "No matter how many times I screw up." "That doesn't make me great." "That just makes me a good brother." "I know I don't say it very often but thank you." "You're welcome." "Alex." "Alex, get up." "I think someone's out there." "Mmm." "You're the boy." "You go check it." "Oh, my gosh." "Um, uh..." "Sorry." "We didn't know who it was and Justin was just like," ""There's something out there. " Plus I'm really not good in the morning." "But hey, you made it." "That's great." " I thought we were gonna do this alone." " Look!" "There they are." "That's the white cliffs." "That's where the stone is." "Oh." "It's so far away." "There it is again." "We're so close." "Come on." "Hola." "I'm going to be at the pool later." " FYI." " Oh, hey!" "Jerry." "Jerry." "Wait." "Please." "Look." " Oh." " You've gotta help me out here." "What..." "What now?" "I can't remember anything before the first grade and my brother and sister never came back last night." "I don't know why you're telling me this." "Maybe you should go tell your parents, kid." "Um..." "Well, I'm trying to do that, but it's a little hard." "They went to try to find the Stone of Dreams." "What?" "But that's incredibly dangerous." "Yeah, well, it was kind of your idea." "I didn't think they'd actually try and do it." "Look, you're the only person I know that can help me find them." "Please." "All right." "Come on, I've got a map." "The problem is it doesn't tell you where to start." " Yeah." " I mean, we could..." "Oh, my gosh, is that a treasure map?" "A treasure map?" "No." "Don't be ridiculous." "It is!" "It is a treasure map." "Well, I mean, not one that works." "Well, it is." "It's just that we're missing a part." "My brother Justin and my sister... what's her name..." "They had something that's supposed to go in this corner." "Uh, there's a picture of a fort with this..." "I don't know how to describe it." "This gargoyle thingy on it." "Well, that could be anywhere." "Oh, I know where that is." "I saw that on my artifact tour yesterday." "It's right, um..." "Oh, wait." "Do I get to come with?" "Yes." " No." " Why?" "You afraid you'll have to spend a little time with me?" "No." "I wouldn't..." "It's just there's a..." "We need to..." "Tell her." "That would be wonderful." " Oh!" "This is going to be so much fun." " What?" " Yeah." " I'll drive if that's OK with you." "What?" "You've got to learn to let me do the talking." "Let's go, boys!" "The map kind of ends here." "Uh..." "Says we have to find a cave." "A cave?" "Somewhere in a mile of cliffs?" "Well, that really narrows it down, doesn't it?" ""The one who knows the least shall lead the way. "" "Alex!" "Sorry." "It's a reflex." "Oh, no, it's OK." "I was about to say me, too." "All right, let's look." "OK, um, I think that this indentation corresponds with that indentation on the cliffs." "Yes, but that indentation corresponds to that indentation to the cliffs there." " Ah." " Why don't we just ask someone?" "OK." "I think this patch of greenery could be" " that patch of greenery." " But there's a bush there." " Oh, there's a bush." " No one ever listens to me." "There's lots of patches of green." "Have you noticed that the whole place is one giant patch of greenery?" "Excuse me." "Sorry." "Hi." "OK." "Ooh." "Hi!" "I'm Alex!" "I'm so sorry to bother you, but I really need your help." "English?" "No?" "Of course, not." "Oh, thank you." "They're new, actually." "I just..." "No!" "Cave." "I'm sorry." "I'm looking for a cave." "Cave." "You know, like..." "Hola!" "Hola." "Hola." "I'm sorry." "Could you slow down just a little bit?" "Maybe some hand gestures would be good, too." "Wait." ""In Spanish class I took a nap then, how about a floating caption?"" ""I think she's looking for a cave. " Yes." "Exactly." "That's it." "Where is it?" ""Maybe if we just keep smiling and nodding she'll go away. "" ""I wonder why she looks like she's been sleeping on the ground. "" ""I wonder if she knows how bad her breath... "" "OK." "We're good." "Never mind." "Sorry to bother you." "Could've just stuck with, "Don't know where the cave is. "" "Cueva?" ""The one who knows the least... "" "And since it's not me, it's you." "Do you know where the cave is?" "I don't suppose you have a breath mint on you, do you?" "No?" "OK." "It says that the path will only reveal itself to the one whose intentions are pure." "What the heck does that mean?" "It means it's probably time for you to go." "Thank you so much for your help, but we've got it from here." "No way!" "I'm not going now and let you two have all the fun." "Besides, neither of you two read Spanish, right?" "Right." "So I guess we're going to have to figure this out together." "Mm-hm." "The time for that is way over, people..." "Whoever you are." "Look, tick tock." "We've gotta get moving." "But we can't..." "You know." "Uh, hey, lady." "Look over there." "What?" "Do you see something?" "I don't see anything." "Yeah, yeah, there's the ship..." "I think that's a bird." "Look!" "Right..." "There's a path." "I didn't even see that." "Come on." "Come on." "Wait." "Where did that come from?" "I don't suppose you have a flashlight on you, do you?" "Oh." "Allow me." "That's pretty much all I've got." "My magic's not working." "The cave must be enchanted." "Mine's not working either." "But I like that "enchanted" excuse." "I'm gonna have to use that." "Me too." "You two can wait here if you want." "What, let you two go alone?" "No, no, no." "I've learned from my mistakes." "We're in this together." "Ow." "Ow." "Ow!" "Here's an idea." "We stay here." "OK." "You ready?" "No." "But let's go." "Good luck." "See you soon." "Watch out for the bats." "And the spiders." "And the scorpions." " And the snakes." " We got it!" "See ya." "Wouldn't want to be ya." "Hang on." "On three." " One..." " I can't feel my legs!" "One, two, three!" "I'm still in here, guys!" "I'm not having any fun!" "Why am I not laying out by the pool?" " Twice is a charm." "Let's go." "Dad, come on!" " Grab it!" "Grab it!" " One, two, three." " Why do you have to count to three?" "Just pull!" "It's slippery!" "Do we even know that this is the right cave?" "I'm gonna go with "yes," but that's just a hunch." "This piedra thing better reverse the spell or else I just got bat poop in my hair for nothing." "It's the Stone of Dreams." "It can do anything." "Reverse any spell." "Show you the future." "But you only get one chance at it." "I'm sorry." "For everything." "What?" "I'm sorry." "This is all my fault." "I heard you the first time." "I just wanted to hear you say it again." "Wow." "It's amazing." "Even in the face of the most imminent doom, you can still be super annoying." " It's one of the few things I learned from you." " Ha." "Still doing it." "I'm sorry, too." "What are you sorry for?" "You're my little sister." "I shouldn't be on you as much." "We need each other." "Wait." "What was that?" "I know." "I'm not saying it again." "A path of stone?" "Hmm." "I don't know, maybe there's a path along the edge." "Or a giant bridge right here in the middle!" "But..." "How..." "I don't know." "It just..." "Wow!" "Bridge just came and it's..." "You know, there's a, uh..." "OK, not our biggest problem right now." "Is it weird that I can't remember what I got for Christmas?" "Look, if you don't want to go on, it's OK." "Are you kidding me?" "What kind of woman doesn't want a little magic in her life?" "Let's go." "You know, for a mortal woman, she is..." "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "I got it." "She's a keeper." "Come on." "Ow." "I like the way she walks." "So this is definitely the place." "But... how are we going to find the stone?" "It could be any one of these." "I'm guessing it's that one." "Yeah, good guess." "Careful!" "Well, someone should put up a railing or something." "Seriously, it's dangerous." "OK." "I'll go." "I agree." "You go." "OK." "Whoa!" "Try this one." "OK." "Almost there." "Don't look down." "Don't look down." "Look up." "Look up." "Look up." "Don't look down." "Don't look down." "Don't..." "Careful." "Hold on to the torch thing." "But not the hot part." "Why would I grab the hot part?" "Watch your foot." "Watch your foot." "I got it." "Thank you, column." "Don't step on the crumbly parts!" "They're all crumbly parts!" "Watch it, watch it." "Justin!" " Justin!" " OK!" "I'm OK!" "Where's the stone?" "I see it." "I think I can reach it." " No!" "It's too dangerous." " I have to try." "We don't really have a choice here." "I got it!" "I got it." "Justin!" "Justin!" "I got you." "I won't let you fall." "We did it." "It's not too late." "We can fix everything." "No!" "What are you doing?" "Come back!" "Whoa!" "What?" " Did you guys get it?" " Is everyone OK?" " Dad!" " Mom!" "I'm so, so sorry." "I was wrong and you were right." "I'll even repeat it if you want me to." "I can't do this on my own." "I need you." "I need your help." "Oh Max, how did you do it?" "How did you reverse the spell?" "Um, I didn't." "Seriously, what is with all this hugging?" "You don't know who I am, do you?" "Sorry." "Wait..." "I do know you." "You work at the resort." "The other day at the pool when you guys were asking about reversing that spell..." "Who are you guys?" "Hey, Dad." " "Dad"?" "You didn't tell me you were married." " What?" "Would somebody please explain to me what's going on?" "No." "This is ridiculous." "Would you listen to yourselves?" "Three kids..." "I'm a 16 year-old girl." "Will you please stop calling me a kid?" "That was actually one of our issues." "OK." "Three whatevers." "OK, fine." "I think I liked "kids" better." "Three kids show up and say we're their parents?" "It doesn't make any sense." "I mean, I think I'd remember." "No offense, but if you remembered, we wouldn't be having this problem." "And we're supposedly married." "We are not married." "She's right." "I mean, I don't get it." "I swore I would never..." "Never what?" "I swore I would never fall in love with a mortal." "And now?" "Well, I..." "There's..." "OK." "Tell me that you're not falling for me and then we'll know this isn't real." "I can't tell you that." "Look, kiss." "Don't kiss." "I don't have time to be squeamish over this." "We have to do something." "He's right." "How did you do the spell in the first place?" "I did it." "But I didn't mean to, I swear." "Maybe at first I meant it a little bit, but then after..." "I used your wand." "This wand?" "Can't you do something?" "Um..." "No." "I'm sorry." "I wish that I..." "But it says here that maybe one of you can reverse the spell." "But you have to be a full wizard." "Oh." "The wizard competition is years away." "People, I have minutes." "It doesn't have to be years away." "I'm..." "I'm not ready." "We have to do this." "If I don't do this, then..." "they disappear forever." "Mom, it'll be OK." "I promise." "Uh, I'm sorry." "I think you have the wrong woman." "I would not forget my own kid." "I've gotta go." "Mom!" "So is that lady your mom?" "Max, don't you remember who that is?" "Should I?" "We've got to do this now." "Everybody grab the wand." "Max!" "Max!" "I do remember you." "Stay focused." "It's the only way to get him back." "It's only a matter of minutes before time catches up with you, too." "A full wizard there can be but one." "All power to a daughter or son." "To an ancient battle, transport us three." "Where one will emerge in victory." "Justin?" "Dad?" "Alex!" "What the...?" "Ready?" "What do you mean "ready?" We don't even have our wands." "It's simple." "Whoever captures the power first keeps it all." "The loser gets nothing." "Do you understand?" "And if you don't try, it won't work." " But then..." " It won't even matter." "It'll be too late." "We'll try our hardest." "I'm sorry." "The rules are simple." "The only spells you're allowed to use are those involving the four elements." "Earth, air, fire and water." "What?" "Nobody said anything about that!" "Are..." "Did you know that?" "I've been studying battle spells for the past ten years of my life." "Do you know how many spells I memorized?" "The best wizards can do the most with the least." "Good, because that's pretty much all I've got." "OK." "Wands at the ready!" "Good luck." "Good luck." "Ready." "Set." "Magic!" "Oh, we're going." "OK." "Justin!" "Hurry." "You're running out of time!" "Was the lightning really necessary?" "You know how unpredictable storms can be." "Quit doing that!" "Don't look at me." "Magic does whatever it wants." "Go!" " Seriously?" " Sorry." "Don't know a lot of spells." " No, Archie." " Gisele, why are you doing this?" "If you could stop and talk to me..." "Don't get me wrong, you were a great pair of legs when I needed them, but I have my own now." "But I did all of this so we could be together." "For us." "Oh, is that what you thought?" "That's what you said." "I was lying." "Archie, why don't you get yourself a life?" "Or at least a decent magic act." "Could I at least get a goodbye hug?" "You." "You were that bird!" "I don't know what you're talking about." "Yesterday, that would have freaked me out." "But now, I need the stone." "I don't think so." "Look, I don't know what is going on." "I'm not part of your world." "But I do know that I just got my heart ripped out by this boy" "I didn't even know I knew, let alone loved." "And his father, who may or may not be my husband..." "You know, I wouldn't even mind if he was my husband... and these other two kids, these wonderful kids." "It's..." "Look, it's a long story." "But they need that stone." "And I intend to get it one way or another." "I'm not letting those kids turn me into the authorities." "I just got my life back." "Why don't you look at this as a fresh start?" "From what I can see, it didn't look like you and your daughter got along so well." "There are a lot of moms who'd like to be in your position." "There isn't one." "Give me the stone." "You mean this one?" "How did...?" "What are you doing?" "It's the first trick of my new act." "It's a doozy." "What did you...?" "What are you...?" "You didn't..." "What are you...?" "Oh no." "Turns out, I like you better as a bird." "Thank you." "A little variation of that puddle spell." " Justin!" " We have to end this." "That's it." "I did it!" "I won!" "I'm a full wizard." "Wow!" "I never knew how great this would feel." "This is amazing." "Congratulations." "See?" "I told you, you were ready." " Justin..." " No, it's... it's fine." "OK." "Quick!" "You need to do the spell now." "Um, right." "OK." "Um..." "But I..." "I don't know what to do." "Uh, Justin, help me." "What spell do I use?" "Why would I help you?" "Because you're my brother." " Look, I'm sorry you didn't..." " I'm your brother?" "No." "No." "No, Justin." "Please, please, you can't leave me here." "Please remember." "I'm Alex." "I'm your little sister." "I taunt you and tease you and make your life miserable, but you love me anyway." "You're everything that I've ever wanted to be." "I'm jealous of how... how smart you are and how kind and how nice." "Please don't leave me here." "I'd never leave you." "I don't know who you are, but but I believe you." "OK." "What spell do I use?" "What's going on?" "I don't..." "I don't know the situation." "No!" "Justin!" "Justin!" "No!" "You have to help me!" "Justin should have won this, not me!" "Just be calm." "You can do this." "Reverse the spell, don't make me scream and yell." "Try another one." "Focus." "Because of words of hate, do not my brothers take." "I don't know how to do this." "Please help me." "Oh, honey, I'm sorry." "I think it's too late." "No, it can't be too late." "Hey!" "Would this help?" " The stone." " Be careful." "You only have one wish." "But if you do it right, you can get your brothers back and still be a full wizard." "Just..." "Just wish for them to reappear." "OK?" "But..." "No." "No, it's much more than that." "I want everything to be exactly the way it was." " Alex?" " Mom?" "The minute Justin tried to magically glue me to my chair," "I knew something was up." "You will just not stop, will you?" " Mom!" " Oof!" "I am so, so sorry." "I could never hate you." "I love you." "You know that, right?" "And I'm not just saying that." "I mean that." "Well, yeah, of course, I know that, honey." " But you're still grounded." " Yes, I know." "I can't wait to be grounded." "Ground me, take away my magic, I don't care." "OK." "As long as you've learned your lesson." "Oh." "Hey, Alex!" "Justin!" "Max!" "You miss your brothers?" "Justin!" "Max!" "Hey." "What did you do?" "You gave up your powers." "You won." "Why would you do that?" "Because I wanted to make sure that nothing was different." "That nothing changed." "Next time this comes around, I am not taking it easy." " Oh, whatever." "Taking it easy?" " With all the puddles..." "Yo!" "People." "Hey." "I'm right here." "Yes you are and I love you for that." "Hey." "Oh, what is going on?" "Uh, hugging." "I'm not quite sure I know why." " Dad!" " Mom!" " Whoa!" " Ooh!" "A lot of hugging." " Hey." " OK." "Excuse me." "Alex." "Oh, right, Javier." "Alex, honey, if you want to go for an hour," " I'd be OK with that." " Mm-hmm." "Well, I wouldn't be." "Javier, why don't you go find someone else who doesn't have their mom watching out for them." "Yeah." "Goodbye!" "Oh, here, I'll take a picture." "I'll set it up." "Uh, that's OK." "I think we have enough pictures." "Besides, I'll definitely remember this moment without one." " I love you." " I love you." "Hey, I got a great idea." "Let's go see some wizard sites." "Oh, no." "This is a vacation, honey." "Oh!" "Stupid bird." "Hey, don't laugh." "It's good luck, honey." "Oh, oh, oh, it's magic" "You know" "Never believe it's not so" "It's magic" "You know" "Never believe it's not so" "Oh, oh, oh, it's magic" "You know" "Never believe it's not so" "It's magic" "You know" "Never believe it's not so" "Whoa-oh" "Never believe"
