"[Male Reporter] Greenwich Village, once the in spot for beatnik jazz and bebop, is today home to the popular folk music fad, a do-it-yourself musical expression that's attracted youngsters from all across the nation." "For them, these homespun songs of the working man express a truth and candor sorely lacking in today's growing consumer society." "Why do you prefer folk music to other types of music?" "Because it's honest." "Commercial songs, pop music can't be honest." "It's controlled and censored by the people who run society and make the rules." "[Male Reporter] Yet, among the many new and talented artists to emerge, one name stands alone as the heart and soul of this growing musical trend." "A young individual who both writes and performs some of his era's finest tunes, and hailed by the New York Times as folk music's Troubadour of Conscience." "His name is Jack Rollins." "[Female Reporter] Jack Rollins, folk sensation of the early '60s, was the promise of a new generation." "So what was it that made him run at the height of his career and throw it all away, trading in the limelight for a different kind of light altogether?" "He saw what was going on in the world, and he had the ability to distill it into a song." "He could do a funny thing." "He could do a pathos thing." "He was sensational." "# For the times, they are a-changin' #" "Now, this young man has taken to the hearts of young people who seem to somehow identify with, uh..." "Jack, why do you think that is?" "Well, I don't know." "L..." "I guess..." "I got a lot of thoughts inside of me, and most people, they... they... keep them all inside." "And I guess it's for them that I do what I do." "[Female Reporter] Today, the name Jack Rollins might best be remembered as the tortured singer battling his conscience in the 1965 drama," "Grain of Sand." "The role, of course, that launched the career of Hollywood rebel Robbie Clark." "Hell, I don't pick what I sing." "It picks me." "Some of it ain't pretty." "I mean, how you ever gonna change anything if you only wanna show what's pretty?" "[Female Reporter] In his first exclusive interview in 20 years..." "Tonight, we bring you face-to-face with the real Jack Rollins." "## [Guitar]" "# William Zanzinger killed poor Hattie Carroll #" "# With a cane that he twirled #" "# 'Round his diamond ring finger #" "He saw what was going on in the world, and he had the ability to distill it into a song." "And this elevated the discussion." "I mean, certainly within the folk world, but all through popular music, the bar had risen." "[Female Reporter] Alice Fabian was herself a leading figure in the folk revival, achieving international success a few years before their first meeting in 1962." "Hey, you're in my chair." "I was at a party in the Village, and this twerpy little kid who'd been hanging around, kind of flirting with my baby sister and kissing up to me, starts playing these songs that he'd written on guitar." "Now, this was '61, '62, and all anybody sang were traditionals, and here's this kid, applying traditional form to contemporary concerns, but with such insight, you know?" "It was devastating." "You couldn't believe this was coming out of this little toad." "Nobody was writing songs like that." "It was as if he was giving voice to ideas that I wanted to express but didn't know how." "Um, his finger-pointing songs, he called 'em." "He was churning them out like ticker tape." "Well, folk music has always been a political music, but he was really expressing it as an art form in a way that was multileveled and very deep." "# Hattie Carroll was a maid of the kitchen #" "# She was 51 years old #" "# And gave birth to ten children #" "# Who carried the dishes and took out the garbage #" "# And never sat once at the head of the table #" "# And didn't even talk to the people at the table #" "# She just cleaned up all the food from the table #" "# And emptied the ashtrays on a whole other level #" "# Got killed by a blow, lay slain by a cane #" "[Alice] Every night," "I would call this ragamuffin on stage and introduce America to Jack Rollins." "I'd say, you know, that he has something to say, you know, and that he is..." "he is speaking for me and everybody who wants a better world." "# Oh, but you who philosophize disgrace #" "# And criticize all fears #" "# Bury the rag deep in your face #" "# Now is the time for your tears #" "[Man] He knows how to peel the surface from what he sees." "His songs are like a true vision of how things really are." "Well, I just find he's the most piercing and aware insight working today." "You'd have thought we invented it, we were so pleased and proud." "Sure, there was a certain tendency in the folk movement for nostalgia about the Depression and the radicalism that came out of it." "They were coming out of a shitty time... the McCarthy era, Eisenhower era." "So, as long as folk remained strictly a minority taste, it would always be us against the big, bad commercial tastelessness." "But when the big, bad commercial tastelessness finally caught on to Jack, then, well, all of a sudden, the race was on." "And this time, somebody was going to win." "He was a rebel." "I wanted to record protest." "Of course, that's right when we were getting into that whole Nam business." "Jack really stopped protesting after 1963." "He said that you couldn't effect change with a song." "You could only write about what was inside you, and folk music, he said, was, um... was fat people." "He said it made him feel like the Establishment, you know, and he always fought the Establishment."

"When's Daddy coming?" "Uh, Saturday, I think." "I only spoke to Sally because it's impossible to get your father on the phone." "[Doorbell rings]" "It's Emily." "Molly, you didn't eat a thing."

"Don't you just love waking up with rain tapping on your bedroom window?" "Absolutely." "I always throw open the window, uncork a bottle of Cold Duck and slip into my Frederick's of Hollywood ostrich-feather nightie." "Just because of rain tapping at your window?" "Oh, I thought she said, "Wayne."" "My mistake." "Sorry." " Ma, where you going?" " To the market." " Why are you going in the rain?" " The market's in Miami." "If it was in Phoenix, I'd be going in the sun." "Now, Sophia, Rose asked a perfectly sensible question." "Am I the only one she caught by surprise?" "Rose, I'm gonna buy a nectarine." "I go to the market every day to buy a nectarine." "At 82, that's life - a round trip on the number 6 bus to buy a nectarine." " That's so sad." " Not sad." "Life." "Sad is when you have to mash the nectarine with a fork." "It's a shame Sophia has nothing constructive to do anymore." "She needs something to make her feel more fulfilled." "I'll tell you what would make her feel more fulfilled... (both) Blanche!" "A hobby." "Oh, I thought you meant, you know, a man." "You got a better hobby?" " I don't think a hobby is the answer for Ma." " What do you think is?" "I wish I knew." "Let's face it, life is as interesting as you make it, and at Ma's age it's harder to make the effort." "I should be grateful she's at least able to get out, even if it is just to buy a nectarine." "Well, girls, since it's raining, we could tackle those jobs around the house we always talk about." " I'll change that bulb in the hallway." " I'll hold the ladder." "I meant something like rearranging the furniture in the living room, or cleaning out the garage, or relining the kitchen shelves." " Bingo!" " Oh, bingo's fun on a rainy day." " She was talking about relining shelves." " Well, that could be fun too, if we divide into teams and grease our hands." "I got arrested for that once at a party in Chattanooga." "Oh, my goodness." "Look what I found." "Double-fudge cookies." "I thought we agreed not to keep cookies in the house." " Right, after this last box." " You're not gonna eat them, are you?" "No, Rose." "We're gonna go to some dumb country and try to use them as money." " I thought we were gonna divide up work." " That's right." "Rose, make a pot of coffee," "Dorothy get the plates, and I'll just tear into these suckers." " Hey!" "Hey, you got any decent nectarines?" " There's nothing wrong with those." "Please!" "I got a bowl of waxed bananas that'll be ripe before these are." "You're crazy." "This nectarine is beautiful." "I never saw a more perfect piece of fruit." "No?" "Then try kissing my behind." "It's a real peach." " Sophia." " Nah, César Chàvez." "I got hungry." " They giving you a hard time, too?" " No, I can't pick out a decent nectarine." " This way they do it for me." " Why don't you just ask for help?" "Help?" "You know who helps old broads like us?" "Boy scouts in cartoons." "We gotta look after ourselves." " They giving you any trouble?" " I can't get a refund on this lamb chop." "It looked fine in the case, but when I got it home the bottom was all fat." " Come with me." " Sophia, I don't wanna make trouble." "When's the last time you saw me make trouble?" " Aisle three." " Oh, relax." " Sir, uh..." " Ma'am, I'm sorry, but I already told you I can't take it back." "It's against store policy." "Are you willing to sign an affidavit?" " A what?" " An affidavit." " It's standard in any NOPRL investigation." " NOPRL?" "The N-O-P-R-L:" "Network of Older People Retired but Living." "Sophia Petrillo, past president and legal counsel." "This store's in big trouble, mister." "I got a better case than Valerie Harper." "Excuse me, ladies." "Is there a problem here?" "Only if you consider a class-action suit and a boycott by OREP a problem." " I thought it was NOPRL." " This is too big for NOPRL." " This is all the way up to OREP." " OREP?" "Organization of Retired and Elderly People." "Sophia Petrillo, Executive Director and leader of the '87 march on Neiman Marcus." "Mrs. Petrillo, isn't there some way to resolve this matter?" "I'm afraid not." "The wheels of justice are already in motion." "Of course, a full refund could put those wheels in reverse." " How much?" " A buck, 17." "You got it." "Here." "Keep the change." "Thank you." "We'll be in touch." "Oh, listen." "Uh, how much for the nectarine?" " Take it." "It's on the house." " We can't do that." "It's against the bylaws." "All right, you can pay me." "That's 45 cents." "45 cents for one lousy nectarine?" "!" "What's inside, a pit or a pearl?" " This is a 25-cent nectarine." " Fine." "Sold." "Don't stand there like a bump on a pickle." "Give the man a quarter." "When the waiter brought my order he set down a bowl of gazpacho in front of me." "I said, "I ordered consommé."" "He said, "A hot number like you needs something spicy."" "I said, "I'll give you somethin' spicy," and I poured the gazpacho down his pants." " So you never went out with him." " No." "I just slept with him." "He wasn't my type." "Oh, my goodness." "Blanche, how could you?" " Come on, Rose." "She's just teasing you." " That's right, honey, I'm just teasing." "You always tease the one you love." "Actually, tease and tickle." "Actually, tease, tickle and spank." "Blanche..." " Actually..." " Blanche." "I'm sorry." "What was I talking about?" " About teasing me 'cause you love me." " Oh, that's right." "Well, it's true." "I learned that during my sorority years when I was dating Preston Bougainvillea." " Lord, the teasing that boy put up with." " Because of his name." "No, because of his ears." "He had these long, floppy ears." "Kind of like a basset hound." "When he came to pick me up for our blind date I couldn't believe it." "He jumped out of the car and he ran up the walk and bounded up onto the front porch, and I remember thinking, "He's gonna trip on those ears."" "But he didn't." "So there he stood before me introducing himself and, I don't know, I was still so stunned, I just kind of half-muttered a "Howdy-do"" "and he said, "I beg your pardon?" "I didn't hear you."" "Well, I don't know what came over me, but I just blurted out," ""Didn't hear me?" "I think you could pick up Radio Free Europe with those ears!"" "And you know what he did?" "He laughed." "Well, right then and there I started growing very fond of Mr. Preston Bougainvillea, and over the next several months we saw quite a lot of each other." " Oh, that's really very sweet, Blanche." " I know." "By the way, did you girls know that the size of a man's ears is directly proportionate to the size of his other... bodily organs?" "What do you mean?" "He had a big, floppy pancreas, Rose." "Look, could we get back to lining the shelves?" " I don't feel like it anymore." " What do you wanna do instead?" "I know." "Let's rent an adult video, drink mimosas and French-kiss the pillows." "I don't think so, Blanche." "Fine." "I'm out of ideas." "You think of something." "How about if we rearrange the furniture in the living room?" "Don't you think we ought to wait till Sophia gets back?" "Maybe she'd like to help." "You know she's always exhausted when she gets back from the market." "The first thing she does is go to take a nap before dinner." "Then we'll just do it right now." "Come on." "OK." "(#jazz number" "All right, all right." "Take five." "Even the seagulls stopped listening." " The rain kept our fans away." " Baloney!" "Every week we've been collecting what, 20, 30 dollars for the clinic?" "The last two weeks we're lucky if we break ten, and you know why?" "We're losing our edge." "The excitement is gone." "We're not driven like we used to be." "Haven't we learned anything from the tragic examples of" "Mike Douglas and Ferdinand Marcos?" "Come on, Sophia." "You know, a little lunch might cheer you up." " You brought yours?" " Nah, this is for later." "I'm having the usual as soon as the sausage guy comes." " So, let's see, who's buying?" " Pulse or pressure?" " Pressure." " 140 over 80." " 130 over 80." " 120 over 70." "Your treat, Esther." "And I'd stay away from the sausage if I were you." "Sophia, would you like to come to my art class today?" "You talk Murray Schimowitz into posing naked yet?" " We got him down to his truss." " I've seen his truss." "It's impressive." "The first time he showed it off I thought he had a turkey platter in his pants." " Besides, today's my day at the hospital." " You're not feeling good?" "Please!" "I haven't felt good since Hugh Downs left the Today show." " But that's got nothin' to do with it." " Hey, look." "OK, break's over." "Let's pretend we know what we're doing and try to turn a buck." "Come on, girls, give it all you got." "Remember the clinic and work hard." "Remember your art and be proud." "Remember an F sharp and blow." "One, two, one... (?" "jazzy version of "When The Saints Go Marching In")" " Well, I guess we should get back to work." " Oh, I suppose so, but, you know, a big meal always makes me so sleepy." "Is that why you usually go right to bed after a date buys you dinner?" " Who said that?" " You did." "At the beauty parlor." "Don't you remember?" "And Agnes said you were a lot of hot air, and you said she was just jealous 'cause she wasn't getting any." "And I said, "Getting any what?" And you said, "Rice pudding, Rose."" " And I said..." " Can we get back to moving the furniture?" "The weather's cleared up." "I think we should save a big project like this for a rainy day." "We agreed we weren't gonna waste time." "That'd be a mistake, something we'd regret for the rest of our lives." "Rose, we're eating pizza, not getting tattoos." "I just hate the idea of wasting time, I always have - ever since what happened to my neighbor in St. Olaf." "Rose... are you about to educate us on the evils of wasting time by telling a long, tedious St. Olaf story?" "D'you know a better way?" "She has a point, Blanche." "It was back in 1955 and we had just moved into our first house, right next door to Pigpen Johannsen." " It wasn't his real name." "It was a nickname." " Pigpen?" "No, Johannsen." "Anyway, Pigpen had just turned 80 and the town bylaws made him leave his job teaching drivers training at the high school." " Well, at 80 it was about time." " It had nothing to do with his age." "There was an old law on the books about driving with your shirt off." "I once got arrested for that in Chattanooga, too." "Blanche, let me ask you a question." "Are you allowed to go back to Chattanooga?" "Are you kidding?" "The sheriff still writes." " Go on, Rose." " Anyway, without a job Pigpen started feeling useless, so the town fathers thought they'd give him a new job - putting up the "Welcome to St. Olaf" sign out on Miller's Lane." " Rose, is there a point to this story?" " Yes!" "That same year on Founders' Day the governor was coming, and Pigpen forgot to put up the sign." "The governor drove straight through town without ever realizing he was in St. Olaf." "I would have thought the glazed look on everyone's face would have tipped him off." "So the point is Pigpen ruined Founders' Day all because he was wasting time." "That's right, and the town fathers took down his picture." "It had always hung in the St. Olaf auto shop, right next to Andy Granatelli." "My mother used to date him." "You know what he has under that trench coat?" "A wrench?" "That's what Mother called it." "Anyway, Mother was having trouble with her transmission and Andy was..." " It's after one o'clock." "You're late." " So dock me." " You do this for free." " Then be grateful." "Anything happening?" "Yeah, we got three in surgery, two in X-ray, and you gotta deliver these on your break." "In your dreams!" "I'm a Sunshine Lady, not a teamster." "Now get the hell outta here, let me do my work." "Oh, uh, one more thing." "Your boyfriend was looking for you." "Sam?" "He wheeled himself out here just to see me?" "Yeah." "I don't get it." "He must see a side of you that's hidden from the rest of the world." "Like the dark side of the moon." "You're just jealous because you know you can never have me." "What's wrong, you don't watch General Hospital?" "This place is a passion pit." " Any flowers for me today?" " No." " Are you sure?" "The name's Leonard." " I know your name." "You ask me every day if I have flowers for you, and the answer is always no." "Oh, wait a minute." "I made a mistake." "There are flowers for you today." "Really?" "Which one?" "All of them, and the balloons too." "There's no one here to deliver them right now, so you leave your walker here and just wheel these to your room." "Oh, thank you." "No!" "Thank youl" "Hi, Sophia." " Sam!" "How are you doin'?" " I'm feeling real good today." "Your strength's coming back - you wheeled yourself down the hall." "Excuse me, I'd like to check on my husband." "Mr. Carp, prostate surgery." "Nothing yet, but he'll be fine." "I went through it myself 20 years ago." " You had prostate surgery?" " What do I look like, a cross-dresser?" "My husband had the surgery." "I was the one who went through it." "So, tell me, Sam, what's new?" "So, anyway, Lars froze solid right in the middle of the lake and the town fathers mistook him for Max Brinker, the inventor of Herring Krispies." "Which, by the way, go great with borscht." "But what doesn't?" "(bell" "Cake's done." "45 minutes." "Gee, I wonder why Ma isn't back from the market yet." "She probably stopped to rest on a bench." "Poor thing." "Honey, her problem is not physical." "She could do a lot more if she wanted to." " You mean she has energy, just no desire." " Exactly." "You know, her mother lived to be 94 and was active right up until the very end." "When Grandma was in a wheelchair she was on the go from morning till night." "But she always had time to talk to her grandchildren." "If I close my eyes, I can hear her saying," ""Come on, you snotnosed little rugrats." "Pick up those jacks." "They're puncturing holes in my tires."" "But the most amazing thing about Grandma was that in 1952" " she decided to go into politics." " Politics?" "Uh-huh." "She felt it was her responsibility to elect Adlai Stevenson president." "Well, she didn't care for Eisenhower because he claimed to have liberated Italy, and she said Italy was liberated enough." "Already too many people eating meat on Friday and wearing condoms on Saturday." " Whatever happened to her?" " She colonized life on Venus." "Rose, she was 94 when I was six." "She died, you idiot." "How did she die?" "You know, we're not sure." "One night she left in her wheelchair and she never came back." "The next day the neighborhood kids had a go-kart with two really big back wheels." "Dorothy, why don't you just remind Sophia how active her mama was?" "But, honey, Ma never saw that." "To Grandma it was no big deal." "She was just doing what she'd done all her life, so she never even discussed it." "And to Ma, well, all she saw was the woman she loved growing old and wrinkled in a wheelchair." "Just goes to show how different one generation can be from another." " Absolutely." " I'll say." "Well, what do y'all wanna do now?" "Well, we aren't gonna waste this day." "We have to do something constructive." " Jeopardy is on in 15 minutes." " Sounds good." "Let's go." "I'll just slice up this cake and bring it in." "Sophia, don't you have to go back to work?" "Please!" "I don't perform brain surgery." "I give people directions to the cafeteria." "If I like 'em, I give 'em the wrong directions." " Have any visitors today?" " Mom and Dad were by this morning." " They brought comic books." " I never let my boy Phil read comic books." "Of course, when he was 16 we shared an underwear drawer." " Did you bring me anything today?" " Don't I always?" " I thought maybe you forgot." " I never forget." "But I hate nectarines." " You have to eat." " Sophia, it doesn't matter." "You know that." "Crazy talk." "Comes from not eating enough fresh fruit." "Here." "Sophia, once they goofed up my blood with that transfusion, there wasn't anything anyone could do." "No one's ever beat it, Sophia." "But someday they will, and it could be tomorrow and it could be you." "I believe that and you're gonna believe that, because right now, today, that's all we got - hope." "And a nectarine." "And a nectarine." "(Rose turns off TV" "It's a shame." "We didn't accomplish anything today." "Of course we did." "We found out in a pinch fruit cocktail is not bad on a bagel." " Oh, hi, Ma." " Hello there." " You guys ready for bed already?" " (laughs) Yeah, I guess we are!" "We're very tired." "We took care of a lot of odds and ends around the house today." " What did you do, Ma?" " What did I do today?" "What I do every day - I bought a nectarine."

"Two kedgeree." "Two kippers." "One pancake." "How long on the bacon?" "Let's go!" "Plate it!" "Where are my pancakes?" "Where are my pancakes?" "Pancake, I don't know." "Black pudding." "That's hot." "Come on!" "Oh, what was that?" "!" "Pick yourself up!" "Come on." "Why are you being such a dick?" "Just make me some coffee, you idiot." "Everything OK?" "Look at this." "One of the most technologically advanced pieces of machinery, they expect you to operate it before you've had coffee!" "Bib used to make your coffee for you, didn't he?" "Want me to see if he can pop round and do you a cup?" "He probably hasn't gone to start his brilliant new life in Australia yet." "What are you doing?" "It's twenty past eight in the morning." "I've been up since five, cooking sausages for idiots." "So I'm going to have a little drinky." "You need to get it together." "Morning, morning." "Mummy's here." "Caroline, I just..." "Caroline, are you drinking in the kitchen?" "Erm... ..yeah, just a little heart-starter." "Well, if you are..." "Ooh!" "That'll knock the cockles off." "Walk with me, Caroline." "You looking forward to tonight?" "The party?" "Yes." "I'll be there." "Robin's coming down too." "It'll be lovely for us to spend a proper night together..." "Closey eyesies." "What?" "Close your eyes." "Open!" "Can I close them again please?" "Ta-dah!" "What do you think?" "My little surprise for tonight." "Little?" "It's an elephant pinata." "You bash it with a stick until sweets come out of its neck." "Yes." "I'm familiar with pinatas." "But I want it to be a surprise." "So do you think you could sneak it in and hide it before the rest of the staff arrive?" "Yes, hide it." "Hide the giant elephant." "Good girl." "All right?" "Hiya." "What you doing?" "Just getting Officer Trumpton ready for tonight." "What's that?" "The spit valve." "Is that all your spit?" "Yeah." "That's just from practising." "That's cool." "All right, Kiki?" "That for the talent show?" "Yeah." "Nice one." "I'm doing a song." "What about you, Skoose?" "I'd rather slam my cock in a car door." "Right, well..." "I'll see you back up there, Kiki." "DOOR CLOSES" "Are you really not doing anything tonight?" "Can I have a go?" "Yeah!" "BREATHY NOTE PLAYS" "Hey!" "That's brilliant." "Most people can't even do the mouth right." "There you go." "Got some of my spit in there now." "Urgh." "All mixed together with mine." "Yeah." "Ah, CVs are SO dull." "Just a big list of milestones and achievements." "You see, just by you handing me this and nothing else, you do come across as a bit of a bighead." "Just give me the headlines." "Everything I need to know about you in five words." "Er..." "Barnaby Thompson..." "Interesting." "You use your own name for your first two words." "Maybe the next three should be "is arrogant man"." "Can I take the first two back please, chef?" "Go for it." "Uh..." "Devoted..." "Passionate..." "Hard-working... with a hyphen." "Excellent." "Learnable?" "I'm not sure that's a w..." "I can see what you're trying to do." "Trying to say "is capable of learning" without using four of your words." "Right." "Er..." "Talented." "You know what, Barnaby?" "You could very well be using those exact words to describe someone else in this room." "Let's spin this thing around." "Is there anything you want to ask me?" "Er...just... what is it you're looking for in a sous chef?" "What is it I'm looking for in a sous chef?" "Hold that thought, Barnaby." "I'll be with you in a couple of minutes." "Ha-ha-ha-ha." "That's fantastic." "They sound great." "Just send them over whenever you're ready." "Later." "You all right?" "Yeah, I'm good." "How are you?" "Yeah, great." "Really good, yeah." "Just come down for some... table cloths." "Right." "That was Kelly from HR, Human Resources, just chatting about all the applicants we're getting for sous chef." "Got to interview them all." "I'm amazed you can get reception all the way down here." "Underground." "Nobody else can." "What network are you with?" "It's an Indian one." "You do it online." "Phone-Tel." "They're new." "What you doing here?" "Picking up my whites." "Right." "Cos technically they belong to the hotel." "Don't worry, though." "I won't tell." "No good to me anyway." "I'm not going to find another chef your size am I?" "Ya big galumph." "No, I expect you won't." "See you later, Roland." "Don't go, Bib." "Pardon?" "I didn't say anything." "OK." "Come on, Bib." "This is crazy." "You can't go now." "We're this close to a Michelin star!" "No, we're not, Roland." "There are stars in the sky closer to us than a Michelin star." "That's not true." "Yeah, it is." "You don't even want one." "I do!" "If you do." "What happened to you?" "You used to have passion, you'd get so excited." "You'd be in that kitchen every minute of every day." "Yeah, and I used to have a life, Bib." "I used to have a wife, and a house." "I was young." "Now look at me." "What do you see?" "A much older man with lady's hair." "It's this job, it's taken everything from me and it's given me nothing back." "The job hasn't taken anything from you, Roland." "Rebecca left you because you took her for granted." "She didn't." "She left me because I knobbed a pastry chef." "Two pastry chefs." "Audrey was not a pastry chef." "She was still at college." "Goodbye, Roland." "What about tonight?" "What about tonight?" "The party." "I can't do the act on my own." "Why?" "Why not?" "Means you get all the glory." "Which is just how you like it, isn't it?" "Go on, then!" "Go!" "Go to Australia!" "Go to Wonga Donga Beach." "I hope you get caught in a rip!" "Should I go?" "(HIGH-PITCHED) Hello!" "Caroline, there you are." "Oh." "God." "I just wanted to see you before I leave." "Erm..." "I guess this is goodbye." "Oh, come here." "I'll miss this old place." "Stop it." "You're going to start me off in a minute." "Thank you, Caroline." "I shall miss you." "Goodbye." "(HIGH-PITCHED) Bye." "Weird seeing you in your civvies." "It's like when you're young and you see one of your teachers in the pub." "I guess it's nice you think of me as a teacher." "That's not what I said." "It's strange seeing you in a suit." "Feel like I'm at a juvenile court." "My mum did actually buy me this for a court appearance." "Is that true or is that a joke?" "You'll never know, will you?" "Good luck, Skoose." "You too, Bib." "Don't bum too many blokes." "I'll try and keep the bumming to a minimum." "See you later, chef." "Hey, Celia." "Just want to say thank you." "For...well, everything." "Ah, you're very welcome." "Did you have a nice stay?" "No, Celia it's..." "Yes, I had a lovely time." "Thank you." "Bib!" "Bib!" "Stupid..." "Stupid..." "Pinata works." "What, are we not talking about the elephant in the room?" "Don't make jokes!" "Celia is going to go mental when she sees it." "It was going to happen tonight, in front of a baying lunatics." "I was just putting it out of its misery." "Roland, come on." "Pull yourself together." "You're meant to be interviewing." "I don't want another sous chef, Caroline." "I want Bib." "Bib's gone, Roland." "Face it." "He's not coming back and you need to move on." "Move on?" "I can't move on!" "It's too soon." "There's another applicant in your office right now and you need to do your job." "You'll have to get rid of them." "I'm not seeing anyone else today." "I can't." "It's way too soon." "I'm not interested in another..." "Hello." "Marvellous, Beatrice, marvellous." "Well, look, it's been wonderful, really wonderful to meet you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Wowa-weewa." "You got a funeral?" "Who died?" "Er..." "I'm here for my interview, chef." "Ah...yes." "Look, I've been giving this a lot of thought." "I really have." "An incredible amount." "Ooh, my knees."

"He didn't even try to protect himself." "Suggests slowed reflexes or no reflexes." "You're not a doctor in this hospital, you are a patient." "LEE:" "Yeah." "And you're the guy who wants to cut out my organs and he's the guy who doesn't." "Get me the scans." "Stroke, cancer, even a simple infection, anything that insults the central pons could do this." "LEE:" "Then that means I could be fixed." "KURTZ:" "You're giving him false hope." "He needs to accept what's happened and work on making the most of it." "LEE:" "Molly." "Hey." "LEE:" "Don't look at me like that." "That's not making me feel better." "(SNIFFLING) I love you." "I don't know how God is gonna get us through this, but he will." "Stop it, I'm blushing." "KURTZ:" "What are you doing?" "Just looking for some reading material for the crapper." "These CTs..." "Get back in your bed." "Come on." "The children are in the waiting area." "Can I bring them in?" "LEE:" "No." "No, don't." "You don't wanna see them?" "LEE:" "I don't want them having nightmares." "I don't wanna scare them, Molly." "You don't want them to see you?" "It's okay." "I understand." "(SIGHS)" "You're gonna be better soon enough." "LEE:" "You really that sure?" "Why are you so sure, babe?" "How do you get so sure?" "FOREMAN:" "Are you okay?" "HOUSE:" "Never better." "Here's your burger." "If you can't bring Mohammed to Princeton, bring Princeton to Mohammed." "It's my diagnostics posse." "Hot, dark and darker." "LEE:" "Talk about getting me better, please." "What are you doing up in Middletown?" "LEE:" "Who cares?" "Buying a Gibson '57 Goldtop." "It's the guitar Duane Allman used to play." "FOREMAN:" "Next to the trauma, the most likely causes of a sudden onset of locked-in syndrome are basilar artery stroke and brain hemorrhage." "CT was clean." "LEE:" "Man, those fries look good." "FOREMAN:" "Certain circulatory diseases." "Guy's an active bike rider, his heart's fine." "A well-placed tumor could explain it." "LEE:" "Jeez, is the last thing I ate gonna be the last thing I ate?" "It could evade the CT, and still show up on an MRI with contrast." "LEE:" "It was a melted PowerBar." "She's the smart one." "I just keep dark and darker to fill out the quota." "If we find it, treat it, you can be fine." "LEE:" "I never thought I'd be praying for a brain tumor, but please, dear God." "If you're praying in there, stop it right now." "We'll get his doctor to order an MRI." "HOUSE:" "His doctor's busy teaching him how to blink out "kill me" in Morse code." "Luckily, I found some forms under the mattress." "KUTNER:" "Check it out, they have those MRI video goggles." "I heard these were awesome." "THIRTEEN:" "What do you see?" "KUTNER:" "It's a beach." "Oh, look." "There's Taub." "Drinking a margarita and mocking us for driving all the way up here because House said "jump." LEE:" "Easy." "I can still feel in here." "Excuse Dr. Kutner." "He gets a little excited about new technology." "It can get loud in there, and a little closed off." "These will put you in a quiet place." "You can create a relaxing scenario for yourself." "LEE:" "I hope they work." "Wow." "You're in my relaxing scenario?" "I guess you like me." "Either that or you got sent here." "What, by God?" "I'm not sure if I believe in God." "You spend an awful lot of time in church for someone who doesn't." "I don't not believe either." "It's either one or the other." "I go to church to mainly keep my wife happy, but..." "I don't know." "I've never actually thought that" "God could reach out and affect my life." "But getting a brilliant doctor in the bed next to me..." "God is also the guy who opened his car door in front of you."

"What you doing, baby?" "(DOOR OPENING)" "LEE:" "What time is it?" "Hope you don't mind." "My new roommate snores." "And my new room doesn't have you." "Your MRI showed a lesion in the central pons." "LEE:" "What is that?" "What does that mean?" "See it there?" "LEE:" "No." "Yeah, that's what they said." "But it's there, which means no way head trauma did this." "It's cancer, causing a paraneoplastic syndrome." "Unfortunately, your current doctor thinks its diffused nature means an infection." "Now, the bad news is the antivirals he's got you on might kill you." "LEE:" "I'm not gonna die." "The good news is, if they just almost kill you, then Dr. Idiot will realize that his name is not a coincidence, and he'll let me do whatever I want." "LEE:" "Thank you." "See, the irony here is, you're kind of fascinating." "So many questions." "But if you could answer any of them, then you wouldn't be fascinating." "LEE:" "I get it." "You're a little nuts, aren't you?" "Your wife is the one getting you through this." "Your wife and me." "Although, frankly, the MRI was a lot more useful than four hours of hand holding." "I think." "LEE:" "If he had a wife, he'd know it matters." "You're a good guy." "Easy to talk to." "LEE:" "Wait, something's happening." "What's happening to me?" "HOUSE:" "Need some help in here." "Your patient is seizing." "Why would he have a seizure?" "HOUSE:" "Because he has cancer." "His brain stem is compromised." "LEE:" "Why are you still arguing with this guy?" "You thought I was dead." "Welcome back." "And nicely played." "You almost died, exactly as we planned." "You knew this was gonna happen?" "Usually happens when you treat cancer by pretending it's not cancer." "Right, Doctor?" "My turn?" "It's cancer?" "No, it isn't." "LEE:" "Yes." "Small tumor in his brain stem causing paraneoplastic syndrome." "He needs plasmapheresis." "Can you give that to him?" "No, no, I'm sorry." "I completely disagree with Dr. House." "LEE:" "Please shut up!" "I don't." "Which means I can treat him." "LEE:" "Let him." "Let him." "Is that what you want?" "LEE:" "Absolutely." "Could you send up a couple of bellboys?" "(WOMAN CHATTERING ON PA)" "I got the transfer papers, plasmapheresis is all set up." "Are you okay?" "Fresh infusion of macho." "You like?" "LEE:" "I can't move, and she's worried about his boo-boo?" "What were you doing up there anyway?" "Antiquing." "Found you a late Victorian corset." "Come by later." "I'll tie you up." "LEE:" "He hitting on her?" "If she turns around, she's into him, too." "And there you have it." "Sorry, I didn't show up in Middletown." "I didn't get the message." "Probably 'cause there was no message." "I decided to accept your resignation." "Uh, I thought we were past this." "I decided to stay." "HOUSE:" "No, you didn't, you had it decided for you." "So now you're stuck here with a boss who knows that you wanna be somewhere else." "Which means you're no longer motivated to impress me." "Which means you're no longer motivated to come up with good ideas." "Unless I'm wrong." "Save the cheerleader, save your world." "I got it from here." "LEE:" "I thought you already solved this." "(CELL PHONE RINGING) You thinking you might be wrong?" "What's going on?" "Hey, just curious." "What're you driving up to Middletown for?" "Why do you care?" "LEE:" "Why does he care?" "Because I'm your friend." "I was buying a guitar." "Yeah." "I heard that." "Used to belong to a guitarist who died in a motorcycle accident." "Just reeks of you screwing with people." "Your crash was 10 miles from the Orange County Progressive Pain Clinic." "You live 10 miles from Mary's Dress Shop." "And yet, that's not even on my list of reasons that I think you're secretly a transvestite." "If you're going to another state to get more narcotics..." "LEE:" "He's on drugs?" "I went to visit your ex-ex-ex wife..." "LEE:" "What?" "...who lives in Thompson Ridge." "Let her know about the extra money you're making on the lecture circuit," "(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS) So she'll be sure to adjust your alimony." "You wouldn't do that." "Yeah, I wouldn't do that." "Would you?" "LEE:" "You guys are friends?" "Shouldn't we be entertaining our patient?" "I performed Euripides with sock puppets, you just missed it." "House said we should." "The mind is like a muscle." "If you don't exercise it, it'll atrophy, just like anything else." "Whoever's with him needs to talk, keep his mind active." "And it'll show House you still care." "Not sure if I do." "LEE:" "Jeez, you're my doctor." "KUTNER:" "Then why don't you just quit?" "Not sure I want to do that, either." "Oh." "Maybe you should figure it out before House figures it out for you." "LEE:" "Dude, maybe you should have your midlife crisis after I'm better." "Kutner." "We'll be right back." "LEE:" "Wait." "Wait, what did you just see?" "Do you drink?" "He's a roofer, alcohol hardly proves your theory." "Marchiafava-Bignami disease fits." "LFT's are normal." "LEE:" "Speak English." "Is it fixable?" "What does that mean?" "That hurts." "THIRTEEN:" "No tremors." "How much do you drink?" "A six-pack a day?" "LEE:" "I hate beer." "I don't even drink beer." "Could mean he drinks more or less, or maybe something else." "KUTNER:" "It may not be alcohol at all." "Street opiates could also cause locked-in..." "LEE:" "I don't get high." "...MPPP." "Either we play 20,000 questions with every street drug, or instead of talking to him, we talk to the lesion." "LEE:" "Talk to me." "TAUB:" "We're going to biopsy the brain stem?" "For the record, that doesn't count as your inspired idea." "It's sort of where I was heading." "LEE:" "You're gonna cut into my head?" "Why?" "Stop treating me like a piece of furniture!" "I have a right to know what's going on!" "Where is that going?" "Blood in your urine clogged up your old catheter." "LEE:" "Peeing blood?" "That must be what the insecure doctor saw." "(LEE GRO ANING) Every clue gets us closer to the answer." "LEE:" "Damn it!" "The surgery will get us more clues." "You have visitors." "LEE:" "No." "No, Molly." "You can come in now." "Daddy."

"LEE:" "You're not so sure any more, are you?" "They must have told you that it's dangerous, that I could die." "And that's why you brought them in here." "I got an A plus on my test." "LEE:" "To see me before I die." "I love you, Daddy." "LEE:" "Daddy loves you, too." "I want to show my drawings." "LEE:" "Kids just want a dad." "Even if he's just a lump." "Maybe you should go now." "LEE:" "Oh no, they can stay." "Please, let them stay." "(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)" "Bye, Daddy." "Bye, Daddy." "Sorry." "You were crying." "LEE:" "Damn." "We're going to put you out, just so we can drill the hole." "LEE:" "Oh, that's very thoughtful of you." "Then we'll wake you back up." "We need you to answer some simple "yes" or "no" questions while we're cutting to make sure we're not cutting where we shouldn't." "LEE:" "Seems to be working." "Deep breaths."

"You with me now?" "Easy questions." "You'll be done before you know it." "Is this equation correct?" "LEE:" "What?" "So if you make a mistake," "I'm not gonna know that any more?" "Are these lines parallel?" "Spatial relationship's intact." "Take a look at this circle." "Is more than half of it shaded?" "LEE:" "Of course." "Don't forget to blink." "Is more than half of the circle shaded?" "LEE:" "Sorry." "Yes." "Look at me, Lee." "Again." "Is more than half of this circle shaded?" "Blink." "Come on, Lee." "Blink." "Foreman, back out."

"HOUSE:" "Two options, my neurologist screwed up, or else something that the hospital lawyer is going to have to come up with when you sue us." "FOREMAN:" "Blinking and eye movements are controlled by a small cluster of nerves just millimeters from the biopsy site." "MOLLY:" "But he's still in there, right?" "I mean, he just can't communicate?" "HOUSE:" "It's possible." "Also possible is that the surgery caused so much swelling in his brain stem that he's just gone." "He had one way to communicate and now that's gone." "Well played." "Brain biopsy revealed severe damage to the myelin sheath." "The question is why." "Epstein Barr." "Picornaviruses." "Malaria." "He runs a business, meets a lot of people, could have picked up rotavirus." "Did he report having bloody diarrhea?" "Wife's not sure." "Says he doesn't complain." "Did you ask him?"

"LEE:" "Why would I tell you the truth about being in St. Louis" "(MACHINE BEEPS "NO") And then not tell you the truth about this?" "TAUB:" "He just admitted he wasn't in St. Louis in front of his wife." "And you think he's lying when she's not even in here?" "LEE:" "I'm liking this one more and more." "Don't fire him."

"Liver's like a cruise ship taking on water." "As it starts to sink, it sends out an SOS." "Only instead of radio waves, it uses enzymes." "The more enzymes in the blood, the worse the liver is." "But once the ship has sunk, there's no more SOS." "You think the liver's fine, but it's already at the bottom of the sea."

"The bracelet's real." "I figured." "So what if the rash isn't just a rash, what if it's an infection?" "If there were rats in that basement, then the liver failure could be caused by leptospirosis." "Transfers through urine." "Rat pee to him." "His pee to you." "The infection would need an entry point." "Look for any recent scratches, cuts." "Look." "Next to his fingernail." "The infection destroyed your liver, which released toxins that caused the locked-in syndrome." "You were dying of a paper cut." "LEE:" "I hope you're right this time." "Let's start him on high dose penicillin G." "We found rats in your buddy, Dave's basement." "Tested positive for leptospirosis." "Means we're on the right treatment." "So try moving a finger."

"Don't toy with him, if you're going to fire him..." "Fact that he stole your idea means that he cares enough to lie." "That's all I needed to know." "Rat pee." "It's a very nice idea." "House, you left this in my office." "No, I didn't." "So either I have a hole in my pocket..." "No, that's right." "I remember now." "I stole it." "Because if you had gone up there to check out my girlfriend, you wouldn't have come back here and lied to me about it." "You would have thrown her right in my face." "You underestimate the entertainment value of your obsessions." "And then there were all those calls you weren't taking in front of me." "So I dialed the number of the calls you weren't taking." "You're seeing a psychiatrist." "You had no right to invade my privacy." "Is that?" "Yeah, it's irony." "(TAPE WHIRRING) Hey." "God sent you." "Suddenly, you're not so fascinating." "WILSON:" "You're spying on your team?" "Prioritize, Wilson." "Is that really what you want to torture me about right now?" "I don't want to torture you at all." "I think this is a great thing, not something you have to drive an hour out of town to shroud in mystery." "Yeah, whining on someone's couch is an excellent use of my time." "Maybe I'll discover that my childhood wasn't perfect." "So your attitude about therapy clearly hasn't changed." "And yet you went." "Which leads me to believe that maybe something else has changed." "Maybe you think you can change." "Credit Cuddy with that." "Not much credit to take 'cause I'm not going back." "Oh, House, please." "I assume you went because you're tired of screwing up every chance you get at happiness." "View contact." "Delete contact." "(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)" "Do not let the fact that I found out about it... (SIGHS) Don't beat yourself up." "I'm not going back because it doesn't work." "You'll end up alone."

"Hector's been arrested and accused of beating a girl." "You wouldn't believe what some of these men get up to." "I didn't bloody do it, Laurie!" "Why is this woman lying?" "!" "What did she do to get beaten like that?" "Maybe just that." "Swear to me you will never do that to me again." "You're telephoning to flaunt your sad attempts to poach my staff." "Mr Madden is the best out there." "You'll ruin his career." "I thought Hector was a friend of yours." "I will say whatever is needed to preserve my position." "From now on, what you do with your time is of no interest to me and what I do is nothing to do with you." "You don't love me." "What?" "You love your stupid Hour!" "I wish you'd told me." "Married?" "And what would you have done?" "Never underestimate how much I know about your business practices." "Are you trying to blackmail me?" "When it is you asking me to look after your whore." "When Hector enquired how well I knew Mr Brown I said, "Not at all."" "Please don't make me lie to you as well." "Dove or a swan?" "Who did it?"

"I was actually hoping to speak to her if I may." "She's not in tonight." "Might she be in tomorrow?" "Miss Delaine has been very badly hurt." "Does that not concern you?" "What of Mr Cilenti, do you know what he thinks about the attack?" "None of my business." "I'm going to offer you a light." "I'm sorry, sir." "I'm not on tonight, but I'm sure one of the girls can help you out." "I'm trying to find out more about the man you work for." "You know how to find me if you change your mind." "Mashed." "Mmm."

""You wouldn't believe what some of these important men" ""get up to in their private time," ""not caring about the consequences"." "It sounds like a threat." "It certainly backfired, no-one at the club wants to talk about her but I did speak to..." "The dark girl." "Yes." "She declined a conversation but took my card." "Camille fared better." "A bottle of champagne and several oysters and she discovered that the cocktail waitress was from Lyon." "In fact, the girls seem to be largely French or Spanish."

"Look, can't you just leave well alone?" "Aren't you even curious to know why she did what she did to you?" "Oh, for God's sake." "This is your idea, isn't it?" "You've spurred her on." "And now you're pulling Kiki's friends in?" "Well, as a friend, she certainly seemed worried for Miss Delaine." "Convenient, she's out of the way?" "Well, she's hardly good for business, is she?" "I get the sense the management of El Paradis feel the same." "Mr Cilenti is a businessman, so don't let your imaginations carry you away." "She'll be fine." "If she's got any sense at all, after the lies she told, she'll go home to her family and her parents." "As far as I can tell, she doesn't have a home, just the club and her flat." "I was hoping to draw a line under all this for the sake of my professional life, to say nothing of my marriage." "Hector." "What she did to you was appalling but, please, this is simply not a story we can afford to put down." "This is not a story!" "Certainly not for The Hour." "Not yet." "But it might be." "A vice business left to flourish, the legitimisation of a known criminal and a system that allows it to happen." "Well, at least let me read my own bloody police report." "What next?" "Mr Hawtree?"

"The peculiar adulation that attaches to a recognisable face." "Who would have thought the medium would produce stars?" "It really is terribly..." "Valuable." "To any broadcaster who wants to attract viewers." "Distracting." "And disastrous to someone of your disposition." "And what disposition is that?" "It is not my primary consideration whether or not you're going to defect, Mr Madden." "Recent pressures may have affected your focus, but you remain a first-rate journalist... and you must decide what's best for you." "Journalist?" "I thought you considered me a mere frontman." "No." "That, I think, is what you consider yourself." "PHONE BUZZES" "Hector Madden for you, sir." "Hello, Hector." "Laurie, look, I'm sorry to bring this business up again, but the woman, the one who accused me, she's missing." "Missing?" "What do you mean?" "I've no idea." "It's Miss Rowley's conclusion." "Mr Lyon's been looking into it." "No doubt he'll ferret out what's happened to her." "It's left me exposed." "An officer has sold my team the police report and now they're asking questions." "What questions?" "Well, perfectly good questions, truth be told." "The sort of questions any good journalist should be asking, but the whole incident is throwing the light on El Paradis and its clientele and now they're asking themselves, as am I, if it wasn't me who attacked the girl, who the hell was it?" "Are you there?" "Yes, yes of course." "Whatever my feelings for that woman, I don't wish her any harm." "No, of course not." "Don't spare me the truth." "Is there anything I should be afraid of?" "I hope not, Hector." "But as I explained to you before," "El Paradis, for all its allure, has its price." "My officers have been watching Mr Cilenti for some time." "He is not a man to be toyed with." "The extent of his influence in criminal activity should not be underestimated." "Leave it with me, and I advise you to tell Mr Lyon to do the same if he's got any sense." "Thanks, Laurie." "As ever, I knew I could count on you." "Now, tell me, are you going to break away from the mundaneness of your day and sneak out for a drink this evening?" "I have the invite here on my desk." "Along with a pile of dire paperwork that needs to be signed." "You're not the only one whose autograph is revered, Hector." "Well, I'll see you later." "Don't be late." "I plan to start as early as I can." "Bye." "Miss Rowley, Mr Kendall called asking if you were going this afternoon?" "Thank you, Isaac." "Did you know Isaac was writing a play?" "I did." "Mr Mackie in drama has reported." "What's the verdict?" "He said it was less kitchen sink, more fitted carpet." "Pithy." "That's good." "Yes, that's what I said." "Pithy is the bit you spit out." "Mr Kendall called." "Whose move next?" "Yours or the merry widower?" "Not biting." "Damn Wolfenden." "I've asked everyone!" "The usual mavericks?" "Everyone!" "Um, I don't suppose you have a spare pair of stockings I could borrow?" "Yes." "You're welcome to any or all of these, but don't blame me if they end up rolling around your ankles." "I'm positively Amazonian compared to you." "How do you work with that looming over you?" "We all work with that looming over us, or have you forgotten there's a dead dog orbiting above our heads?" "By this time next year, every one of those countries will be committed to nuclear armament." "The repercussions will be felt by all our children." "We don't have children." "No, but I have a strong inkling that one day you might." "Enjoy the party." "Good afternoon, sir." "I'm sorry to disturb you, I'm looking for a Mr Hawtree." "I'm Hawtree." "Does that help?" "You did a lovely job on this, sir, if I may say so." "Oh, my goodness." "I'm sure that's nothing to do with me." "No, no, I work for the client, sir." "I'm here to pick up the next batch." "Usually he sends a coloured fellow." "Do I know you?" "Well, to tell the truth, sir," "I'm actually not here on behalf of the client." "I'm looking for one particular girl." "Police?" "No, no, no." "She's my girlfriend, we fought." "I'm just trying to find her." "Her name's Kiki Delaine." "I don't suppose you've photographed her recently?" "Not recently, no." "But I'm more your portrait photographer." "Can I see her pictures?" "I hope you're not the jealous sort." "These are very elegant." "Yes." "Though he prefers them less risque." "Who?" "Mr Cilenti." "Red ticket 95." "Lucky lady." "Congratulations." "Well done." "Yellow ticket 83." "Hello." "Hello, Freddie." "Why do I never get asked to give out prizes?" "Better to collect them, I find." "Mmm." "Now that is an exhilarating team, of which you own 50%." "With eyes on the other half." "And we were having such a nice time!" "He'd be advertising Brylcreem in a week if he went to ITV." "Red ticket 112." "Ladies and gentlemen, don't be shy." "Ah, Commander Stern." "Congratulations!" "I am officially one of life's losers." "Don't despair." "I've spent the last few years of my life losing every tombola that my daughter has dragged me to." "You've got children?" "Singular." "She's eight." "Delightful." "Bel loves children!" "Bill!" "Jonathan." "I haven't seen you for so long..." "He's obviously charming." "Very." "And a daughter?" "Do you calculate in advance how to make me look a fool, or does inspiration strike you in the moment?" "Oh, deflection, Moneypenny." "Very, very revealing." "And I said, "Alistair, I'm not going to serve fish roe" ""masquerading as caviar to a man with a CBE"." "Darling!" "I thought I'd lost you." "Darling!" "Oh, excuse us." "You're drunk." "Sponsors." "Advertisers." "I was invited here by ITV, the people I work for." "Now why don't you go and do your job and let me go and do mine?" "Hang on." "I have earned this, Hector." "I'm here in my own right." "Not as your mannequin to be unveiled and put away at will." "Don't you dare spoil this for me." "Oh, aren't you pretty today!" "What's your name?" "Angela." "Angela." "I stole it." "Yes." "Returned now." "Thank you." "It is odd, when we've known one another as long as you and I have..." "Don't particularly want to..." "It's a conversation." "It's simply a conversation." "The past..." "Festers if it's never spoken of." "You see, I have lied to you... ..in a way." "Not lied, but... ..there's a form of deceit in my return." "Please..." "Have you ever looked for her?" "I'm going now." "Because I have." "I do not want to talk..." "I do." "There are practicalities." "I don't have her birth certificate." "I presume you registered her in Spain." "So I started in Granada, then I moved to Madrid." "There's a..." "Barcelona." "I registered her in Barcelona." "After..." "After that I took her to Paris." "Right." "Do you still have it?" "It would be a help to see it." "We did what we had to do." "Civil war is no place for..." "After you left, what was I going to do with a baby?" "Return to England, an unmarried woman with a child?" "I did what I had to." "I live with it." "Do you ever wake up at four o'clock in the morning and wonder if she thinks of us?" "Wonder what her life was?" "I do!" "That's what I live with." "And it suddenly occurred to me I don't have to, so I am looking for her." "And I am asking you if you wish to look for her too." "And if you don't, the least you could do, if you have the birth certificate..." "DOOR SLAMS" "She'll make a wonderful mother." "Won't she?" "Just not with me." "Oh!" "I bet you all look wonderful!" "Miss Rowley and Mr Lyon seem to be enjoying themselves." "They're still preoccupied with that bloody girl." "I had to pull quite a few strings to get you off that sticky wicket." "It seems wholly unnecessary to open it all up again." "You know, the wonderful element to news is, as important as it is in the moment, it's just another story by the next day." "Interest always wanes." "Ease off the whisky, eh?" "You never learn." "There were more." "When did he last see her?" "Not recently." "This isn't a call girl, this is a girl keen to move up." "We're dealing with a gangster who could still hurt her." "If you knew she had more to say you wouldn't want her running around town bad mouthing those she once worked for, would you?" "I'm going to show it to Miss Ramirez." "See if it prompts anything." "This seems a very serious conversation for a Christmas party." "I thought it was an opportunity to, erm, show the caring side of us all." "Yes." "Hector tells me you're still looking into that business with Miss Delaine." "It's rather a murky world." "It's probably best left to the police." "Best for whom?" "I'm sure Commander Stern imagined he was at a party." "No, no, I don't mind being candid with you, Mr Lyon." "Vice is the greatest challenge facing the Metropolitan Police today." "Our progress is somewhat disheartening, but..." "What do you know about El Paradis and its proprietor?" "Raphael Cilenti is very charming, very successful and very discreet." "He undoubtedly has a chequered past but he's not engaged in anything criminal at the moment." "Excuse me." "Mr Stern." "One more thing, and then I promise you can relax." "What's your position on Wolfenden?" "Well, I happen to agree very strongly with the Government's stance." "Homosexuality is, of course, a crime." "Vice is not something that can go unpunished." "It would be very useful to have your perspective on the programme." "If a man of your standing could speak out with the passion you've just displayed, Mr Stern." "Appeal to my vanity?" "You'd be surprised how often it works." "Wouldn't have to wear make-up, would I?" "You'd be fine just as you are." "Why not?" "Oh, you won!" "Yes." "Lucky ticket." "Wonderful to see the children enjoying themselves." "Hector." "Good to see you." ""The great pity with London is that, with all its vivid flavours," ""a man like Mr Madden can be so easily led astray"." "Yes, don't quite follow you." "Rather think you're on a frolic of your own there." "Don't mock me, Angus." "And don't feign ignorance." "No, I assure you I never feign." "My ignorance is 100% genuine." "I read the police report." "You sold me down the river." "Would you excuse me just for a moment?" "I merely declined to become involved in a mess that had nothing to do with me." "We must all take responsibility for our actions, Hector." "Oh, must we?" "And what were you doing that night, McCain, hmm?" "Haven't you heard the Government rejected Wolfenden?" "So if there's anyone the police might be taking an interest in for that night, it was you." "Diabolical, Hector." "Diabolical." "We're planning to discuss the subject on the programme tomorrow." "Would you oblige?" "The Government wants to keep the status quo but I wonder whether you might have an alternate view." "You are drunk." "And you're a bloody hypocrite!" "Now, when I walk, I want you to walk with me." "Come on." "Come on!" "Splendid." "Leave it, just leave it off." "You leaving?" "Delightful though it was." "Are you really leading with Wolfenden?" "How did you know that?" "From hearing phrases like "sexual intercourse" and "buggery"" "coming from your general direction." "I know a chap who's been instrumental in campaigning for civil rights for homosexuals." "I could give you his details." "But if it's such a good contact why don't you use it yourself?" "Do you want it or not?" "Think of it as payback." "If we do get Mr Madden." "His contract's not up yet." "And after his display tonight..." "He'll sleep it off." "Well, thank you." "For that act of self-sabotage." "I don't see it as that." "You see, I believe that journalists who share their contacts are ultimately rewarded." "I think I'd like to call in my reward now." "If that's all right with you?" "You need some coffee." "Laurie, would you be so kind?" "Yes, of course." "Come on." "Let's get you to bed." "Come on, sailor." "You're a good pal, Laurie." "Yeah, yeah." "You are." "Someone will be a very lucky woman when she reels you in." "Yes, well, I think that might be a matter of opinion." "No, I won't hear that!" "You always lacked confidence with women." "It's always the same." "Those God-awful brothels in Italy." "Oh, I should never have left the army." "Don't be ridiculous." "If I'd had even the first idea what it was like on civvy street..." "I'd give anything to go back." "So would you, admit it." "Well, there is no going back, there's only forwards." "Urgh!" "You need to get yourself a girl." "You got a girl, Lieutenant?" "Never know with you, you keep it all so closed up." "Locked." "Yeah, well, you're drunk." "Love." "You ever loved?" "Yeah." "Once." "Did she love you back?" "No, I think not." "But you can't let her go?" "No." "That's it." "Locked." "Those girls in Trieste." "Do you remember?" "Benedetta..." "Juliana..." "Come on." "Lie on your side." "Evyleena." "No, it wasn't Evyleena." "Go to sleep!" "What was her name?" "Juliana, Benedetta, Eva..." "Emeline." "I'm so lost, Laurie." "I'm so bloody lost." "Go to sleep." "Thank you." "He is better than this." "Hmm, he'll be fine in the morning." "Coffee?" "Better not." "Duty calls." "Something like that." "Miss Ramirez." "I've got a two minute change." "What do you want?" "I don't know when it was taken but she obviously had ambitions." "Is there anywhere she could be?" "Miss Ramirez, she could be dead." "She's here." "She's more than fine." "You might catch her if you're quick enough." "She's wearing very nice mink." "JAZZ MUSIC PLAYS" "Miss Delaine!" "Mr Lyon." "This is a nice club." "You're very welcome here but I ask all my clientele, please, leave your work elsewhere." "Sorry, but my work is everywhere but elsewhere." "This is neither the time nor the place." "Goodnight for now, Mr Lyon." "But do become a frequent visitor." "I encourage you to make yourself at home." "Though a word of advice to you and your friends at The Hour." "Drink my champagne, eat my oysters..." "Hey!" "Here!" "..but don't think for a moment you won't pay." "Come on." "Sir, madam, very nice to meet you." "You're looking extremely well." "Very well, thank you." "OK?" "Thanks." "Goodnight." "Ready?" "Yeah." "Great." "Can you follow that car, please?" "Um, can you take me to, er, Notting Hill now, please?" "KNOCK AT DOOR" "Bel." "Oh, sorry." "No." "Come in." "No, um, I don't want to disturb you." "I was just looking for Freddie." "I don't know where he is." "I thought he was with you." "Um, no." "Um, sorry." "I'll go." "No." "No, really." "Please, come in." "Brandy?" "It's very nice." "Are you enjoying it?" "Casino Royale?" "It's ridiculous, I can't understand any of it." "Really?" "I think it's one of his best." "I hate it." "Horrible, horrible, horrible." "And so pointless." "I think that's the point." "DOOR SLAMS" "Hello?" "Freddie." "Where have you been?" "Er, been at El Paradis." "And?" "What are you doing here?" "I, er, I didn't want to be alone." "I think someone's been in my flat." "It's from Cilenti." "How do you know?" "I just do." "I found her." "Miss Delaine." "She's alive?" "Very much so." "Well, tell me." "Tell all." "You're shivering." "I'm fine, go on." "Well, I followed her to a townhouse in Mayfair." "I didn't wake you up." "No." "You smell of, um..." "You bought it for me." "Nearly finished the bottle." "You staying?" "Erm, no." "No, not tonight." "I just wanted to make sure you were safe and sound." "Always." "Oh!" "Merry Christmas." "Oh, I love it." "Really?" "Come and lie with me." "All right." "Freddie." "Here." "Plenty of time to find another tenant." "Please reconsider." "It's not worth it, Freddie, not at our age." "We're joining the migration north." "Where to?" "Colindale." "It's deserted." "Absolutely nothing there." "We can't give in to intimidation, Mrs Goldman." "Please, take this back." "Come on." "We can't let them win." "I'm sorry, Freddie." "DOOR CLOSES" "Had some upsetting news, Mr Lyon?" "I think you know my wife, Mr Pike." "She'd like an apology." "What for, Mr Lyon?" "I haven't laid a finger on her, certain I'd remember if I had." "You paid Trevor to assault her." "Yeah, I wouldn't believe a boy like that." "Well, we're not going anywhere." "He who resists change..." "I was born here!" "There's no such thing as birthright any more, Mr Lyon." "You should know that." "No, not at all the place it once was." "The one of your memory, Mr Lyon, that's long gone." "Mrs Hassan, the money?" "Thanks, Peter." "I heard there was a scene." "Oh, no, no, nothing like that." "It was enough." "Mr Lyon will anchor this evening's programme on his own." "Are we agreed?" "Won't viewers be surprised if Mr Madden is completely removed?" "Like it or not, he is one of the main reasons that people watch The Hour." "It's a debate." "We need sharpness of mind." "That does not go hand in hand with dehydration, nausea and waves of self-loathing." "And Hector?" "He should be shunted into the sidelines until..." "Until?" "Contracts are up at the start of the new year." "KNOCK AT DOOR" "Miss Delaine..." "Miss Delaine!" "Stop banging!" "Go away or I'll call the police." "What for?" "This time?" "Come on, Miss Delaine." "Just five minutes." "Please." "Miss Delaine." "If Mr Madden didn't hurt you, why did you tell the police that he did?" "Oh, it's done now, isn't it?" "And I can't take it back." "He's all right." "I watch his wife on the TV." "I hate cooking, but she's beautiful." "Is he your boyfriend?" "The man at the club?" "They all think they're my boyfriend." "Oh, you're someone's." "It's a pretty powerful clientele at El Paradis." "Mr Cilenti's all about people." "I'm going out in a minute." "Do you know how worried Miss Ramirez was about you?" "Well, she can see I'm all right now." "Yes." "Yes, you are." "You're better looking in real life." "I'm here to help." "No, you're not." "You're here for some story, for your programme." "I don't really watch the news but I've seen you." "You're going round investigating me." "But I could say you'd done something to me this second if I wanted." "And why would you do that?" "Anyone can say anything, can't they?" "There's value in an important man like yourself, a famous face." "Value for who?" "You're asking stupid questions and I can set you straight in one." "You do what you have to do in this world." "You make your move and you get where you wanna go." "Even if you have to take a beating along the way?" "He hurt me that day, but it all healed up." "Look, can't see nothing." "Who?" "Who hurt you?" "You think I'm stupid." "But I'm not." "Really I'm not." "Look where I am." "Why would I betray him for the sake of giving something to you?" "That's very pretty." "Present." "Really?" "They look very much in love." "Can you go now, please?" "I want you to go." "Glad to see you walking straight today." "Just about." "Hello." "Well, well." "This is suitably glamorous." "In here please, Mr Grey." "Who's that?" "An actor?" "Peter Grey." "Co-founder of the League for Homosexual Law Reform." "A homosexual?" "Yes, Mr Wengrow." "Remarkable." "Looks just like you or I." "On the programme?" "Mr Wengrow, if we were making a programme about birds, who would we contact?" "The Royal Society for the Protection of..." "Birds, exactly." "But we would not go on to assume that the spokesman they sent us was themselves feathered with a beak." "Hector in?" "On time, for once." "Um, Sophie, could you...?" "Thank you." "How to get revenge against a man who beat you." "Accuse his best friend." "What's this?" "Shakespeare?" "Don't tell me you're complicit." "You can't be." "Otherwise he wouldn't have let you sit in that cell for so long." "What are you talking about?" "I have just been with Miss Delaine." "She is being kept in some style." "Who might that be by?" "I don't know what you are talking about." "Think about it." "You know the man." "I want you to be honest with yourself." "A powerful man." "A man with contacts." "A man with influence." "A man who would use that influence." "No." "I won't hear it." "Commander..." "Laurie would never..." "He would." "He has." "The prize he won, remember?" "That bloody horrendous ornament, now in pride of place on Miss Delaine's mantelpiece, Hector." "How?" "KNOCK AT DOOR 15 minutes to air, everyone." "What do you want from me, Freddie?" "Mr Stern is having an intimate relationship with a woman who as good as belongs to Mr Cilenti, which can only mean your friend must be turning a blind eye to the man's misdeeds." "Must be?" "It's organised crime, Hector." "Police corruption." "Cilenti's got a leading Police Commander in his pocket." "On what evidence?" "Oh!" "He's a hero in your eyes so you don't want to believe it." "You know it's true." "A man errs." "A man errs so badly, it's quite impossible to square it with the man you knew before." "But stupidity, reckless stupidity..." "No!" "How do you know?" "He helped me." "I could have gone to prison." "He helped you to help himself." "I'm sorry, Hector, but it's true." "You know it's true." "Everything all right?" "Yes." "So, Mr Lyon, I'd like you to lead with Wolfenden." "Pick up NATO and, Mr Madden, you can have the Home Secretary round up of the year." "Perhaps it's for the best." "Debating the rights and wrongs of a permissive society?" "How can one trust him?" "How can one trust anything he says now?" "We can't have him on the programme." "We can and we will." "Fine, but I interview him." "Sorry." "Hector should present Wolfenden." "What?" "You'll have to trust me." "It's 12 minutes to air, Freddie." "A live debate." "Even if I didn't trust you, Randall would never allow it." "He wants Hector out." "But you don't." "So defy Randall." "Is he half-cut?" "No." "He won't let us down." "Isaac, I need you to find the landlord of this address." "Who pays the rent?" "Whether it's a freehold?" "Soon as possible, please." "Thank you." "Er, Randall." "I, um, I thought of translating it for you, then I seem to remember your Spanish is pretty..." "Appalling." "I'll muddle through." "Hmm." "Let me know." "I'd like to know." "Thank you." "Places, please." "All right?" "Thank you." "What's going on?" "Mr Madden is presenting Wolfenden." "I specifically said..." "Mr Lyon is insistent." "You are overruled." "Which is my privilege as producer from time to time, is it not?" "Why is Mr Lyon throwing him a lifeline?" "I don't know, but let's give him the benefit of the doubt, shall we?" "Overruled I am." "Standby, everyone." "We're live in 20." "Cue grams." "Mr Madden has rather a green pallor tonight, wouldn't you say?" "Five..." "Four..." "Three..." "Two..." "One..." "Good evening, and welcome to The Hour, the most important 60 minutes in your week." "This week, the Government has rejected the recommendations of the Wolfenden Committee that acts of homosexuality between men no longer be considered a criminal offence." "We ask is this something that the Government should have done?" "Joining us for a debate in the studio we have Mr Peter Grey, the co-founder of the newly established" "Homosexual Law Reform League." "Opposing him, is the man charged with keeping our capital city free from the scourge of vice." "Commander Laurence Stern of the Metropolitan Police." "Good evening, Commander." "Good evening." "Mr Grey, your organisation must be disappointed that the Government has refused to relax the law." "The current law ruins lives." "You see, most arrests are got through blackmail." "One person threatens to report another for homosexual activities, but rather than going after the blackmailer, the police invariably pursue the man who has done nothing more than engage in an act in private, which causes no other person harm." "Well, society is harmed." "Homosexuality is a crime with no victim, Mr Stern." "It's blackmail that destroys lives." "Acts of unnatural vice are never victimless, Mr Grey." "Indeed." "But what of these people who live in fear of being accused," "Mr Stern?" "What do you imagine life is like for them?" "Well, the morality of this is black and white." "The law cannot be altered to accommodate perversions." "That way abuse lies." "Abuse?" "Perversions?" "Who is it that defines what these things are?" "Parliament." "That's what we're here to discuss." "Where the hell's he going with this?" "I don't know." "..police officers have a great deal of discretion as to which perversions they pursue?" "Well, our officers do exercise a great deal of discretion, yes." "But, in fact, it's notorious in the police force." "This particular offence is seen as an easy target." "One for the arrest record." "Yes, well, I have never seen evidence of that procedure." "Well, we have the evidence right here in the Wolfenden Report." "Past five years have seen a surge in arrests for homosexual offences." "Arguably a purge." "Well, there has been progress, yes." "But the police has not enjoyed similar success with other kinds of vice." "Can you offer an explanation for that, Mr Stern?" "Well, as you know, the Government is currently considering legislation to take prostitutes off our streets, so obviously that will have a major effect on vice numbers." "Surely a tip of the iceberg?" "While vice is allowed to continue underground, with call girls and club girls, and young women vulnerable to the sexual whims and abuse of men." "What's being done to police that crime?" "I mean, how is it that the police..." "Pull back on camera one, pull back on Mr Madden." "Um, there's something not right here." "No!" "He's never been so good." "Tighter, go tighter on Commander Stern!" "Tighter on camera two." "Which would you consider the greater crime, Mr Stern?" "The abuse of women within the vice industry or the private acts that take place between consenting men?" "We all have our weaknesses, Mr Madden." "Most of us manage to keep them within the boundaries of the law." "And if that fails?" "Could you contain yourself?" "It is not our failure that reveals us, Mr Madden." "It is the manner in which we pick ourselves up." "Thank you." "And now we go to Frederick Lyon, with news on the aftermath of the NATO summit." "The Prime Minister has made no secret of his enthusiasm for Mr Eisenhower's deal to house American missiles on British bases, but at what cost to the nation?" "Down the line now from Washington, our correspondent Mr Barnaby McDonald." "Good evening, Barnaby." "Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen, and a happy Christmas." "Hector." "Mr Lang?" "I got you a name for the landlord of that flat." "Thank you." "It's owned by a Mr Pike." "A Mr Norman Pike." "Find out what else he owns, please." "Quick as you can." "BRASS BAND PLAYS "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen"" "Those whose contract is up and may be thinking of asking for an increase in salary should tread carefully." "Nothing like an annual review to kick-start the year, Mr Madden." "It's organised crime." "Systematic organised crime." "Greased by a deep level of police collusion." "You're talking about a man who will ruin both of us." "Your entire team, if he has to." "I can't betray him." "He's a corrupt officer whose handiwork almost cost you your career." "Cilenti conceivably could have information on half the men in London." "What has happened at Downing Street in the last few days could well bring down the Government." "Can't you just be pleased?" "Must you always be the one to get the scoop, Freddie?" "You didn't come because you were worried about Miss Delaine." "I suspect you were also worried for yourself." "Get out while you can, Kiki." "You can get free from all of this." "They've found her." "What?" "My contacts, they think they've found her." "Why do you think I work every night late, trying to deliver the most truthful perspective I can?" "Because it's easier than to be here." "I love you." "Subtitles by Red Bee Media Ltd"

"Ninth grade, if I remember correctly?" "It involved a white dress, rain and a recently docked aircraft carrier." "Let's hope my mug shot is the last thing she ever prints about me." "On the bright side, Gossip Girl does not report on college so this is your last day to be under her rule." "Can you take my mind off of me?" "Talk about anything." " Did he say it like, "I love her"?" " Anything but- "I love her." "I love her?"" " I totally set myself up for that one." "I don't know why you act like this is new information." "You know how Chuck feels." "The problem isn't his feelings, it's his inability to express them to the right person." "Who cares who he tells if he doesn't tell me?" "Does he even know that you and Nate broke up?" "Have you not told him?" "It's not like we stay up braiding each other's hair, having heart-to-hearts." "Then why are we still here?"

"As for today, I got my mom and my grandpa to agree to sit together so that's something." " And things with you and" "Blair?" "Yeah, it's over." "But it's okay." "Turns out we just had to go through something to be sure." "Since it ended, I keep thinking about how horribly I handled things between us." "So I just wanted to say I'm sorry." "Thanks." "It means a lot." "And thanks for what you did last year." "If I hadn't taken the SATs I'd never be going to NYU." "Right after I get back from my backpacking trek through Europe, of course." "Look at us, so civilized." " Hey, stop by my party tonight." " Party?" "What party?" "After-grad party." "Figured I'd do something to commemorate my time here." "So I hope to see you there."

"Ladies, I thought we were matching our headbands under our caps?" "What's going on?" "Your minions told me about choosing the next queen." "They don't get to choose the next queen." "I do."

"The pregraduation squabble?" "Or the fact that you no longer want to marry me?" "What exactly is our problem anyway?" "You tried to give me money behind my back when I said no."

"Is something wrong?" "I know you have high aspirations for me." "So in the spirit of full disclosure, there's something you need to know." " Something that may" " It may come out." " I'm intrigued." "Last summer, I had an affair with an older woman." "Oh, my boy." "Welcome to Washington." " She was married at the time." " Hm." "Go on." "And she..." "Well, she paid me." "Well whatever happens, I'll protect you." "Let's hope it doesn't come out." "Yeah." "Hey." "Have you seen your girlfriend?" " You don't know?" " What?" "Blair and I broke up."

"But honestly school's finished." "Our parents, you know, that doesn't look great." "Next year, we're gonna be in different cities." "When you think about it what's really keeping us together?" "So that's it?" "You get your diploma and you're just moving on?" "Well, congratulations, Dan." "Have a good life." "So, doughnuts?" "No, let's just go home." "I wanna get out of this suit." "All right." "The number of posts in the last six months about Constance and St. Jude's is double the next-mentioned school." "Number one on her hit list would seem to indicate a personal connection." "I refuse to believe students at our school are worse than Horace Mann or Spence." "So Gossip Girl most likely goes to or went to Constance." "Exactly." "Why else the focus?" "Well, you would also assume that she is our age." "The blasts all started when we were in the ninth grade." "An upperclassman simply wouldn't care." "So you're saying Gossip Girl's a senior like us." "If she's a senior, then that means she's in the room right now." "So who could it be?" "Rebecca?" "Her head's always in a book." "She's not paying attention." " Okay." " Not her either." "Then I submit Nelly Yuki." "Low profile, good with computers." "Many grudges, mostly against me." "No." "I've been with her way too many times when Gossip Girl sent out a blast." "There's no way it's her." "I'm gonna speed this up." " What are you doing?" " Sending a tip to Gossip Girl." " Chuck, get the room quiet." " I'm way ahead of you." "If I could have everyone's attention, please." "We'd like to thank you all for being here today." "[PHONE BEEPING]" "SERENA:" "Jonathan?" "NATE:" "What?" "BLAIR:" "Gossip Girl is a guy?" "It's him." "Look." "What happened?" "What's going on?" "Tell him who you are." "Wait, if you're not Gossip Girl, you must know who she is." "No." "I just hacked into her server over spring break." "I was bored." "We have access to every e-mail that is sent to her." "I can't believe she gets all these posts that she doesn't report." "No." "No." "Boring." "Apparently, you dye your hair." "Yeah, we have this theory that either she can't substantiate some of them" "Or she waits till the perfect moment for maximum damage." " I wish I could be more helpful." " No, you have been so helpful." "Can I actually borrow you for a minute?" "I'd like you to help me dig deeper." "Nothing in here is good enough to beat the new girl." "Except for this." "No way." "Would you really use that?" " I don't think I can." " If you did, you'd totally win." "Yeah." "And I could abolish the monarchy forever." "You going to Nate's party?" "I thought Vanessa and I would hit a movie instead." "And here we go." "All right, it's your last party of high school." "I know you don't love your classmates, but you shared four years." "Honor that." "I suspect there may be a couple of people you'd like to stay friends with." "At least one person." "Yeah." "Yeah, Serena said kind of the same thing." "How do I get these doses of sage wisdom when I'm living in the dorms at NYU?" "Well, I'll appear to you like Obi-Wan." "Now go, young Jedi." " Have fun." " All right." "Bye." "[PHONE RINGING]" "Our kids graduated high school today." "And I felt old." "And so I wanted to do something young and crazy." "And you're the only one I wanted to do it with." " What's in the bag?" " Something I found in Chuck's room." " Well, then I bet it's good." " Mm-hm." "ELEANOR:" "Are you dressing for someone?" "Yes." "Someone I hope is finally ready to love me the way Cyrus loves you." "Cyrus told me." "You told Chuck how you felt and he ran away." "You seeing him tonight?" "Yes." "Don't let him get away with it." "[ROCK MUSIC BLARING]" "GIRL:" "Hey, watch it." "Oh, hey, drunky."

" Was she about to tell me she loved me?" " I'm so glad we came." "Blair, I need to talk to you." "Gossip Girl knows." "Ominous, but ill-timed." " You can tell me tomorrow." "Or never." " About New Year's." "The mean girls want the best gossip in exchange for keys to the kingdom." "I just thought you'd wanna know." "If Gossip Girl were gonna post that, she would have done it this morning." "And, like I said, the mean girls don't control anything." "Blair, wake up." "You're not queen anymore." "You haven't been for a while." "And you're not going to be either if you tell anyone what you know." "I'm sorry I wasted my time on you." "You don't have what it takes." "You never did." "Now, if you'll excuse me." "[CLEARS THROAT]" " Bring me your leader." " It's not midnight." "My gossip's too juicy to wait." "I wanna talk." "I prefer to talk after."

"I worship it." "How do you feel about me?" " Say it." " I..." "[PHONES BEEPING]" "[PHONES BEEPING]" " What is it now?" " Not again." "GOSSIP GIRL:" "Serena van der Woodsen just couldn't leave well enough alone." "Since she had to find out the truth about me I'm going to tell you the truth about everyone." "Every gossip bomb I've got is about to drop." "And if you've got a problem with that, take it up with her." "Ever wonder why Miss Carr left town?" "Dan Humphrey had sex with her during the play." "The sparks between Humphrey's sis and Nate during a hot photo session?" "Thank God it stopped at PG-13 or someone could have ended up in jail." " Like her brother." " Is that true?" "What, you were in jail?" "GOSSIP GIRL:" "And as for Blair Waldorf, say uncle." "We hear she kept it in the Bass family on New Year's." "But rumor has it Chuck spent some time in Brooklyn metaphorically speaking, of course." " You slept with Jack?" " You slept with Vanessa?" "Serena van der Woodsen, here's looking at you." "Jack, Blair?" "Really?" " That's calculating." "Even for you." " I was sad and he tried to comfort me." "You call that comfort?" "More like collusion." "You did it with the dregs of DUMBO." "I'm standing right here." "You slept with Miss Carr?" "And you were in jail?" "You let some guy take photos of you?" "What was he doing there?" "No, it wasn't as bad as it sounds." "You guys, stop it." "She's trying to create a divide between us." "This is what she wants." "We can't let that happen." "You know something?" "I don't think she created the divide." "I think it was you." "You're the reason we're on "Gossip Girl" in the first place." " If it wasn't for you, we'd be safe." "NATE:" "Okay, that's enough." "We all did what she said we did." "You can't blame Serena." "Yes, we can." "She declared war on Gossip Girl." "You brought this on us." "That's not fair, Serena was trying to help." "What do you know?" "Besides, your label was the only one that was true." "You mean what she said about "The Insider"?" "Are you crazy?" "You're friends with Nate Archibald." "You played soccer." "You got into Yale." "Got the lead in the school play." "Got published in The New Yorker." " You had sex with a teacher." " Plus, you dated the most popular girl and ignored the rest of us." "Them." "I meant them." "You pretend not to be like us, but you are." "To the bone." "And you should have known better." "Thank you." "PENELOPE:" "Kudos, S." "Way to go out with a bang." "What did you wanna tell me before?" "Doesn't matter now." " It just happened." " Leave me alone." "You're not mad at me because of that." "Just like I'm not mad at you about Vanessa." "Stop telling me what I feel." "We're just doing what we always do." "Finding excuses." "Well, I won't do it anymore." " You told Serena you love me." " Serena heard wrong." "Last year, you told Nate." "This year, you told Serena." "You tell everyone but me." "Why can't you tell me?" "Is Gossip Girl right about you being a coward?" "That's not true and you know it." "Gossip Girl can be right about you all she wants." "But I won't let her be right about me." "I will not be weak anymore." "You can't run." "You have to stay here and hear it this time." "Chuck Bass, I love you." "I love you so much, it consumes me." "I love you." "And I know you love me too." "Tell me you love me." "That everything we've done, all the gossip and the lies, and the hurt will have been for something." "Tell me it was for something." "Maybe it was." "But it's not anymore." "Oh, my gosh." "Do you remember The Casbah?" "That concert?" " Barely." "In the best way." " Oh, my God." "You covered "How Will I Know?" And you dedicated it to me and I sat there trying not to laugh." "I was so in love with you." "What are we doing?" "Things were easier when we were younger." "Unlike our kids, we just jumped into things." "I mean, why can't we just be more like that?" "Just figure it out as we go along." "Maybe this didn't turn out to be the romance we thought it would be." "It was more like choose your own adventure." "Maybe it just wasn't the right time." "Maybe it never will be." "What if it is?" "What if we're just too stubborn to see it." " I don't wanna miss out." " Well, neither do I." "I don't have a ring so this will have to do." " Rufus, what are you doing?" "Marry me, Lily." "Marry me." "I know that'll make me your fifth husband." "So..." "Yes." "Give me your hand." "Come here." "Hey, don't worry about this, okay?" "Everyone's gonna get over it eventually." "When?" "I mean, high school is over." "If I don't fix this tonight some of these people will never talk to me." "And what happens next year?" "What, she does this next Serena and Nate and Dan and Blair." "Well, what else can you do?" "It is too easy for her to sit behind a computer and not face the damage she's done." " Wait." "That's not true, is it?" " No." "But she doesn't know that." "You didn't get to use your gossip." "Well, here's something new." "I told Chuck I loved him, again." "And he didn't say it back, again." " Blair, I'm not gonna tell people that." " I'm giving you what you need to be queen." " Don't wanna be queen." "I just wanted a chance to have a life in school." " Look what it almost made me do." " That's the thing." "You need to be cool to be queen." "Anne Boleyn thought only with her heart." "She got her head chopped off." "So her daughter Elizabeth made a vow never to marry a man." "She married her country." "Forget boys." "Keep your eye on the prize, Jenny Humphrey." "You can't make people love you, but you can make them fear you." "For what it's worth you're my queen." "I choose you." "Thank you." "[PHONE BEEPING]" "NATE:" "It's already been over an hour." "Bar's closing soon." "She's gonna come, I know she is." "Whoa, wait." "Dan is Gossip Girl?" "Gossip Girl?" "You crazy?" " Dan, what are you doing here?" " I Loopt you." "Are you waiting for Gossip Girl?" "Yeah, and I know you don't approve." "I'm gonna go close the tab." "This grudge-match thing, it doesn't seem like you." "What's going on?" " I don't wanna be irrelevant." " Irrelevant?" "You're Serena van der Woodsen." "Gossip Girl might be right about me, but she's wrong about you." "Without Serena, who would I have dreamt about?" "I might have spent my whole life on the outside if you hadn't let me in." "Which I'm holding against you." "[LAUGHS]" " Thank you." " Thank you." "Oh, my God." "Oh, that makes sense." " Wait, they're a team." " A team of what?" " Wait, why are you all here?" " I got a text saying to meet you." " Yeah, so did I." " So did I." "[PHONES BEEPING]" "GOSSIP GIRL:" "You wanted to meet Gossip Girl?" "Well, look around." "You just did." "I'm nothing without you." "And while most high-school friendships fade it's my hope that what happened today will bond you forever." "Now that all my secrets are out, you have a clean slate until college." "Congratulations." "I'm coming with you." "GIRL:" "Oh, my God." " Drinks on me." " Yes." "Thank you." " Wonderful." "NATE:" "Thank you." "Thank you." "I'm sorry about what I said." "You don't have to apologize." "Where's Chuck?" "It's over." "Once and for all." "But I'm gonna be strong." "Still, it doesn't feel right without him here." "You know, everyone's here." "Yeah." "Everyone's here." " Oh, it's beautiful." " It looks so good on you." "I've dreamed about this for so long." " Do you wanna fire it up?" " I can't." "Blair and I have a meeting at Rouge Tomate." "That's cryptic." "Both." "So how are you today?" "Miserable." "But at least college will be the fresh start it's supposed to be." "No Chuck, no Nate." " No anybody, really." " Except Gossip Girl." " Forget I said that." " It's okay." "I read them too." ""Spotted:" "Chuck Bass in France." "Chuck Bass in Germany." "Chuck Bass in Italy."" "I hope he has so much fun that they have to quarantine him." " Open your present." " What?" " It's to remind you of who you are." " I love it." "I'm gonna put it up on my wall at Brown as soon as I get back from Europe." "Come with me." "I chased a guy for years who wasn't that into me." "And I'm going to a glorified state school." "My mother married an entertainment lawyer." "So I need to just stop moving and contemplate the failure of my life." "When you're ready to start moving, you know I'll be here." "Yes, of course I do." "Humphrey." "Where's your mind?" "You know, I know it sounds crazy, but I actually kind of miss high school." "I miss Blair Waldorf and her daily ego demolitions Nelly Yuki stealing my lunch." "Even Chuck Bass, who'd get so close to talk." "Wow, you miss Chuck Bass." "Well, not as much as you probably miss Chuck Bass." "But, yeah, I think it's safe to say that the nostalgia has officially begun." "Apparently, the Upper East Side feels the same about you." "What's up, Dan?" "Vanessa." "Shouldn't you be giving the deputy mayor her coffee?" "Well, I think she'd rather I gave her something else." " Yeah, she made a pass at me." " God." "Is she hot?" " Actually, yeah, she is." " You're both disgusting." "You know, I don't wanna be the guy Gossip Girl made me out to be." "So, what are you gonna do?" "Go backpacking." " If you'll have me." " Well, it's too late." " I'm" " I'm taking someone else." " Oh, really?" "Who?" " That's me." " Him." "Yeah, we're gonna have a great time, Melissa and I." "Oh, really?" "Daniela." " Close." " It's Vanessa." "But thanks for trying." "Please let me go with you." "I'm always doing what everyone else wants." "I wanna do something for me." "We'll go as friends." "It won't be romantic." "Unless we drink a little too much in Vienna one night." "How could you say no to that?" "Seriously." "As long as you take off that ridiculous tie so I can maybe picture you with a backpack." " What's wrong with my tie?" " I need a coffee." "He's always wearing a tie." "So I'm the one who does the good deed, and that guy goes off with the girl?" "Yeah, it's good to be that guy." "Do you go to NYU?" " I'm starting in the fall." " I just transferred from BU." "Scott." "I'm Dan." "Nice to meet you, Scott." "Maybe I'll see you around." "We got this for you." " I'll take that, thank you." " What are you doing here?" "What I should have done months ago." "In five seconds, your phones are going to go off with the latest Gossip Girl blast." "[PHONE BEEPING]" "She is nothing if not punctual." "Allow me." "Remember all those secrets Jenny amassed when she was trying to protect you, Nelly?" "Well, now the world knows them too." "Looks like we have a winner." "Now if you don't mind..." "PENELOPE:" "How can you do this?" "Letting some girl from Brooklyn carry on our legacy?" "Ever heard of a foreign queen?" "Besides, her dad is marrying Lily Bass so I think that makes her richer than all of you." "Not enough." "JENNY:" "Okay, so starting next year, no more headbands, except for this one." " Thanks, you can keep the change." " Oh, big spender." "Hey, Mom." "It's really cool here." "I've already met some great people." "Yeah." "All right, all right, you were right about Portland." "I think I'm gonna love it." "All right." "Listen, I gotta go, all right?" "I'll call you soon." "NATE:" "I'm done for the day, if you guys wanna see a movie." "Let's do it." "[PHONE RINGING]" "Hold on." "Hold on." "Hello?" "GEORGINA:" "Check your bank account." "Your money's back." "[WHISPERS] It's Georgina." "[IN NORMAL VOICE] Georgina, where are you?" "What happened to Poppy?" "You don't have to worry about her ever again." "You got your money, that's all that matters." " Now you can go to Yale." " Well, I'm going to NYU now." "Oh, great." "Then I'll see you next year." "Wait, what does that mean?" "[PHONE HANGS UP]" "Wait" " Hello?" "Georgina?" "What?" " Georgina Sparks?" " Yes, that's right." "I recently enrolled in Gallatin." "Here's my paperwork and my check." "Thank you, Ms. Sparks." " Is there anything else?" " I'd like to request a roommate." "Blair Waldorf." "She's my best friend, and I just can't wait to live with her." "Serena." "Carter." "Aren't you supposed to be in Dubai?" "You know you can't lose me for long." "Where you headed?" "Everywhere." "I have something you might wanna know before you go." " I hope it doesn't have to do with Blair." " It has to do with you." "About Santorini, what you were looking for." "While I was on the trip you so graciously gave me I found it again." "Only it's not in Santorini anymore, it's in Fiji." "At least he was last week." "You found my father?" "Get in." "Let's go." "Why aren't you in Europe?" "I was in Paris but only to get your favorite macaroons from Pierre Hermé." "And Germany?" "To pick up your favorite Falke stockings." "You know how I adore them." " What are you doing here, then?" " You were right." "I was a coward, running away again." "But everywhere I went you caught up with me." "So I had to come back." "I wanna believe you." "But I can't." " You've hurt me too many times." " You can believe me this time." "That's it?" "I love you too." "But can you say it twice?" "[LAUGHING]" "No, I'm serious, say it twice." "CHUCK:" "I love you." "I love you." "There's three." "Four." "I love you." "GOSSIP GIRL:" "XOXO, Gossip Girl."

"Roddy!" "Let's go!" "Morning." "Get that, would you?" "*** I'll have to get another minicab!" "Tristesse books." "I can't wander in my ***" "Hello?" "Yes?" "Tristesse books?" "Tom Duval?" " Oh yeah, come in." "Just down the hall!" "Non, écoutez-moi." "Non." "Non." "Y a un petit souci de compréhension." "Maintenant vous allez m'écouter et vous allez m'écouter bien clairement." "La seule chose que je vous demande, c'est d'arrêter de penser et de croire que je vais pouvoir payer des impôts français." "Pourquoi je ferais ça?" "J'habite en Ecosse!" "Donc vos impôts, vous pouvez vous les carrer où je pense." "Voilà." "Oui." "Absolument." "Non non non, c'est pas malpoli ce que je vous dis." "C'est très poli." "J'essaie juste de vous expliquer que vous êtes un abruti." "Ecoutez si vous voulez, je prends un avion demain et je vous jure que je débarque dans votre banque." "Oh yeah, no, he's a wonderful writer." "Very ***." "Tu commences vraiment à me fatiguer toi!" "No, Tristesse doesn't publish him anymore." "You know what, he had a little disagrement with Tom." "Je te jure que demain, je prends un avion, je débarque à ta banque, et je vais te..." "Yeah, she's one of my favorites." "She's *** for the booker." "Right after she was sectioned." "Au revoir !" "Au revoir, monsieur Richard." "Au revoir !" "No, she... she left too." "Jane Lockhart!" "What are you doing?" "I'm so sorry." "I didn't mean to..." "I was just touching it." "Not like... touching it, that sounds like molesting." "Like I'm some kind of pervert." "Which I'm not." "So..." "Young European Publisher of the Year Runner-Up!" "That's really impressive." "I have a swimming certificate." "Who the hell are you?" "Jane Lockhart." "I wrote The endless anguish of my father." "Follow me." "I'm busy, so I'll keep this brief." "I read your novel, I'm afraid it needs work." "A lot of work." "Please, sit down." "But it has potential, so I'm going to publish it." "I'm offering you a two-book deal." "It's going to mean a lot of rewriting, definitely a new title, and neither of us will get rich, but..." "I think you have it in you to be a writer, and as unfashionable as it may seem, that's what I came here to find." "I believe you're... crying." "Sorry." "I didn't mean to start..." "It's just..." "It's been so long, you know?" "So many rejections, and I have a board..." "You have a board?" "Of rejections letters." "I call it my board of pain." "Well, that's completely normal." "It is?" "I'm sorry." "He was like this in university." "Everywhere he went, crying women." "Your lot's supposed to be charming." "Charmant, n'est-ce pas?" " I told you never speaking French to me!" " Don't you dare!" "No, really!" "I've never been so happy in all my life." "Jane." "There is no need to be nervous." "Nervous?" "Me?" "No, no no no, I'm not nervous." "Not me." "Okay, a little bit nervous." "You'll be fine." "Usually, I need a run-up before I start editing, like a tea, a wag, regret in the shower..." "Or we could just begin." "Okay!" "So, where do you want to begin?" "Well, call me crazy, but we could start at the beginning." " You crazy Frenchman." " What?" " I don't know." " All right." " So you're in a good mood." " I'm always in a good mood." " No you're not." " Yes I am!" " Are you?" " Yes." "So, first sentence, I think it's so good." "It's beautiful." "Actually, I'm reading it right now." "I shut my eyes and sink into the water, letting it wash over my face and hair..." "So, I was just, you know, passing, and thought I might have come back from the bridges that actually has..." "Yeah." "I don't know." "Beneath my feet, I felt crumbled pages..." "I don't believe this." "I'll call you back." "Happy ending?" "What happened to The endless anguish of my father?" "What happened?" "You know how important this stuff is." "You changed my title to that!" "I told you." "The very first time we met, I said it must go." "Yeah." "But we never discussed it." "I knew how you'd react, darling." "Oi, careful!" "That's my Young Publisher of the Year award." "Runner-up!" "What's wrong with you?" " Who are you?" " What?" "All that time we spent together working on the manuscript..." "No one's ever got me the way you..." "I don't know you." "Look, it was a terrible title, and I changed it." "What's done is done." "Let's move on." "How can it be so easy for you?" "Perhaps because I am not a moderately talented writer whose loser dad left her with an inability to stop worshipping her own pain." " Worshipping my own pain?" " Calm, sit down." "Let's talk about the lodge!" "You know what?" "Our deal is one more book, and then what's done is done." "Let's move on." "Those childhood summers are long and blue." "Mine wasn't like that, and certainly not the summer when mum got sick." "I knew if I just went out and saw her in the sun, she'd be all right again." "August 1st." "I can see the other kids down a little swarming and the flats are blank, but not me." "I never saw her in the sun again." "She'd taken me to Woolworth to choose my birthday present and it would have been like last year when dad just slipped a Barbie under his coat and walked right out the door with it..." " That was lovely to meet you both!" " You too." "Take care!" "To Susan." "Thank you for coming." "And this is to..." "Dad." "It's great to be here to present this award for Best new writer to an outstanding debut:" "Happy ending." "Jane Lockhart." " Congratulations." " Thank you!" "What we have here is a real writer." "Someone who can go to some pretty dark places but I get it, Jane." "Writers!" "We both understand what it is to face el toro blanco, the terror of the white bull, the blank page." "And every day, we face it together." "Right, Jane?" "Ladies and gentlemen, Jane Lockhart." "Thank you." " Yeah?" " I'm starting the final chapter." "You'll have the manuscript by the end of the week." "About bloody time." "Ah, Tom, as ever my little ray of sunshine." "Well, moan all you like." "I've never been this..." "Annoying?" "Happy." "You bastard." "Happy!" " One more chapter." " Yes." "And we never have to see each other again." "Yes." "Better get writing, then." "A bientôt, Jane." "Au revoir, Tom." " Willie?" "I'm off out for a bit." " Sure!" "Just look to the chapter..." "Listen." "I don't care what you're thinking." "I'm telling you, this is not an opening chapter, it's an ice age!" "You can't talk to me like that!" "I was voted one of Scotland's foremost novelists under the age of thirty!" "And that's why I won't allow this piece of crap to be published with your name on it!" "You have my notes." "Fix it." "By then Nicola, see you at the lodge." "If you try to make me cry, I'll inform *** about your yacht." "If we have to talk figures, can you do that thing where you use vegetables?" "Imagine this tomato is my cash ***." "How many of your writers did you throw money at this year?" "I only throw money at good writers." "Good Scottish writers." "I'm very patriotic." "And what does it matter?" "One hit pays for all the rest." "And I have a bestseller in the wings." "Jane Lockhart, yeah." "So how's the new book shaping up?" "I have no idea." "She won't let me read a word until it's finished." "Relax!" "It'll be just like the first one." "I heard she talked with a publisher." "Klinsch and McLeish?" "With the red and white covers?" "Big time!" "Klinsch and McLeish." "You know what they're called in the trade?" "Clench and release." "They're not right for my Jane!" "For Jane." "So talk to her!" "Persuade her to stay." "But I don't want her to stay!" "After she delivers her new novel, I want her to go!" "Far away!" "Oh, for God's sake, Tom, Tristesse books is on the verge of ***." "And I've got an offer." " Well, you're a very attractive..." " Shut up." "They want to invest in you." "I don't need Pandemic Media." "I have Jane Lockhart, and this time she's going all the way." "Are you sure?" "Because if she doesn't deliver, your tomato's ketchup." "She'll deliver." "She might be a miserable pain in the arse, but when she's writing, she's like a guided missile." "Tea spoon." "Willie?" "Willie, will you get that?" "Willie!" " Hello?" " Thursday or Friday for the manuscript?" "Grease brief paper!" "Just want to check!" "You're certain it will be finished next week?" "I told you, one more chapter." "What are you doing?" "Nothing." "Are you baking?" "Oh my God." "She's baking." "She only bakes when she's blocked." " Largest planet in the solar system." " Jupiter." "Who did Ally beat to become world heavy-wee champion for the first time?" "Sonny Allestun, come on, the quiz is going to be harder than that skit!" "Serious." "Who was Shakespeare's wife?" " Hi dad." " Hi darling!" "Who was Shakespeare's wife?" "Anne Hathaway." "And at the end of the third round, Benny Lockhart and his Jets with 22 points." "Join us for the second half in ten minutes." " Mr. L!" " Tom!" "Good to see you." " How are you?" " I'm good." " ***" " For your daughter, mostly." "I understand." "Never talked to me for years, but ***." "What are you having?" " Nothing." "He's not staying." " Come on, Jane." "What are you doing here?" "My favorite author is being adapted by Scotland's most talented screenwriter," "Willie Scott." "Huge fan." "Naturally, I want to know how he's getting on!" "Well, I may not be the most talented but, who else you're gonna pick, uh?" "Just one sec." " Where is my novel?" " I'm working on it." "So you're not suffering from el toro blanco?" "What?" " So you're not B-L-O-C-K-E-D." " Why are you spelling it?" "It's nothing to be ashamed of, and I've plenty of strategies to ***." " I'm not blocked." " For instance, *** and narcotics." " I'm not blocked." " For a while, their interest was permanently unblocked." " I'm not blocked!" "Until you deliver that manuscript, you're still under contract to me, so whatever is going on, snap out of it, and get writing." "Bye Jane." "Bye Jane." "He's not gone, has he?" "Would be our chance to talk about my screenplay." "French really appreciate my work, you know?" "Connaisseurs de cinéma." "We should have him over." "Your wine." "Bathroom." "I know you, don't I?" "Where was it we met?" "Chapter two." "I'm in the opening chapter, of course, but you only really get to know me from chapter two." "Darsie?" "What do you think?" " I think I'm talking to my protagonist." " I prefer heroin." "What are you doing here?" "It's a very intense narrative." "I've personally suffered from a broken engagement and two bereavements so far." " Yes, I know." "That's all right." " No no no." "Please don't apologize." "I think it's gonna make me a stronger person in the end." "The end?" "Yes." "So you're gonna go back and finish it?" "I can't do that, not without you?" "Why can't you finish it, Jane?" "What are you afraid of?" "Get a hold of yourself, will you?" "Gets me every time." "Three times now." "It's that ending." "Don't talk to me about damn endings." "Do your marking." " Okay." "It's silly." "Jane says hi." "That poor lassie." "She must have lived such a shocking life to write like that." "What are you saying?" "Well, the lonely page, the endless introspection, the mind plagued by funky thoughts... that's how writer's taking it." "So misery, no poetry." " Yeah." " Did you speak to Jane Lockhart?" "Yes, she's happy, very happy." "Happier than she's ever been apparently." "And the novel?" "Tom?" "Hello, you're still there?" "Tom!" "I have a problem I believe may be suited to your particular talents." "Let's say a miserable writer, through the supreme efforts of her publisher and her only good talent, becomes successful and happy." "Are you listening?" " Hello, sir." " Amber, Roxane!" "That's your boyfriend, sir?" "Say nothing, just keep very still, you don't want to antagonize them." " Can we get back to my problem?" " Yeah, okay." "Miserable writer becomes successful and happy, I get it." "And?" "And, being happy, she's unable to finish her latest miserable novel." "So, in order to help her, the selfless publisher embarks on a course of action to return her to the fragile mental state in which she wrote her highly perfectible debut!" "You wanna make Jane Lockhart's life a misery so she can finish writing her book." "That's seriously messed up." "They teach you this stuff in France?" "We study a broad curriculum." "So, how do we make someone completely, totally miserable?" "Why are you asking me?" "I dedicated the last ten years to encouraging young minds, planting hope and aspiration." "Put that away, stand in the corner and face the wall!" "Little shit." "Okay, maybe I've some experience in the field." "The trick is not simply to upset her, you have to get her in the right mood." "It's a special kind of misery you want, a melancholy." "A right dose sense of dissociation and alienation that's the source of every artist creativity." "It's like drain-on blocker for novelists." "Keates?" "John Keates?" "Your plan involves actual poetry?" "I think by definition that makes it a shit plan." "All right, settle down, you lot, settle down." "William Wordsworth." "Wordsworth was of course the first of the romantics to use a MacBook Pro." "Careful." "You're gonna kill that thing." "You know, it was a birthday present from my dad." "He showed up out of the blue with a card and baby plant and he said" ""I owe you, darling." "I owe you the world."" "And... and then he left and I didn't see him again for six years." "How many Ps in deprivation?" " Just one." " One." "Coffee cake." "That was your mom's favorite." " I know." "Your mom was a big fan of cake in general." "She always made a cake for my birthday." "Do you remember when you were six, your mom and I would take you to the zoo, and the monkeys threw rotten fruit at us." "I slipped on a bit, fractured my foot in three places." "Damn monkeys were laughing at us." "Do you remember?" " Yeah." "I remember." "That's in your book, isn't it?" "The Happy thing." "Ending." "It's called Happy ending and yeah, the main character does go to the zoo with her dad, but he's not you." "And they're not monkeys, they're penguins." "The penguins threw fruits, uh?" "It's different, it's a story, not real life, you know?" "They're not the same." "Whatever you say." "Damn monkeys." "There's a new book, then?" " That's cooking." "And Tommy?" "Don't call him Tommy, his name is Thomas Duval, he's from Saint-Tropez, a place they named a fake tan after." "You call him Tommy, you make him sound he's from here, like he's normal." "With his stupid, stubbly face." "You see a lot of Thomas Duvals around here?" "There's Dashful, he played for Rangers." "Anyway, forget about Tom." "I'm about to sign with a new publisher, Klinsch and McLeish?" "The red and white covers?" "I liked Tom." "Dad." "I mean, nobody else wanted your wee book, didn't they?" "He showed faith in you." "No, he showed faith in my book." "You know he changed my original title." " Did he?" " Was it a good title?" " That's not the point." "Was what that original title?" "Nothing." "Nothing, it doesn't matter..." "Tell me." "I like that kind of stuff, stuff that other people don't know." "It makes me feel... closer to you." "Okay." "I was gonna call it..." "The endless anguish of my father." "For fuck's sake!" "The endless anguish of my father!" "?" "I knew it was about me, I knew it!" "No, it's not about you, it's a character I made up." "People at work looked at me differently when it came out, I knew it!" "I'm going back to the depot." "You never read it." "You're not allowed to be hurt until you've actually read the damn thing." "Do you not think I'm hurt my own dad hasn't read my novel?" "I will read it." "I will read it just as soon as I get over my anguish." "Dad?" "Target acquired." "Over." "It's a pot plant, Roddy." "Not a nuclear reactor." "Just warn me if either of them comes back." "Roger that." "Understood loud and clear." "That is a solid copy." "Right." "Time for some low-level unhappiness." "The twilight sad." "Hey Roddy, are you there?" "Maverick to Ice Man." "We are all scum, Mike." "Five feet from extraction point." "We have a clean visual on– Bollocks." "Tom, Tom, Tom, she's back." " What?" " She's coming up the stairs!" "Shit!" "Damn it man, get out of there!" "Abort!" "Abort!" "Ah, that's horrible, she's really upset, I'm not looking at that." "Yes!" "Oh!" "What was that for?" "You're enjoying this too much." "It's for her own good." "And it's not as if I actually killed her plant." "So what do you think?" "I think this is the end of *** in Europe." "Yes." "You should write something like that." "Oh yeah, thank you, great suggestion." "Bit French, people dying of consumption and all that." "I'm a bit more urban Scotland, primal scream, unhappy nineties childhood." " Sorry?" " She wasn't talking to you." "I wasn't talking to you." "Willie?" "Do your characters ever, uh, talk to you?" "Sure." "All the time." "That's why I've got this." "Drowns out the bastards." "See, when I'm writing, I like to hear the one voice." " Mine." " Charming." "Quite the hero." "Aww." "You're still blocked?" "A 101 ways to beat writer's block?" "Beat your block to a pulp?" "What would Jesus write?" "Seriously?" "Okay, so what is the deal?" "Are you gonna stalk me until I finish my novel?" "Yes, I believe that's how it works." "Now, can we talk about the last chapter?" "What about it?" "Our romantic heroin." "I don't want to end up unhappy." "It's not that easy." "You don't really get to choose your ending, it has to follow from what came before." "Or it doesn't feel true." "Please." "I want all to turn out okay." "Jane." "Don't let us down, darling." "Jane Lockhart?" "I thought it was you!" "Shauna Haybridge, proprietor of Marcabooks." "Can I just say it's such a pleasure to meet the woman who helped pay for my new kitchen?" "I just lo-o-o-o-ved Happy ending, it's so sad." "I can't wait for your next one." "Is it finished yet?" "It's gonna be, uh..." "It must be difficult, I mean so much to live up to." "How do you come back after the extraordinary success of Happy ending?" "We are interrupting the muse?" "I'm sure you're eager to get back to the page." "And I have my eye on a gorgeous bathroom!" "Please take that with my compliments." " Thank you so much." " I just need to write that title." " Ah, no!" "Blocked?" "Dad?" "Come in." "I was just making strudel." "I can't stay anyway." "I just wanted to say..." "I had that in my head what I was gonna say." "I don't supposed you had a whole stock for words." "Listen." "We don't really know each other." "And I would like to, to get to know you." "I mean the mess again, there at the end, the symmetry," "I was out of word." "I was and I'm sorry." "I'm really sorry, darling." "I've said and, uh," "I'm gonna go and meet the boys for quiz practice, I'm off." "Right, okay, I'm off." "Dad?" "It's okay." "I know how complicated all of this is and, uh, can I be on your quiz team?" "I think you may be a bit busy for a daft quiz team." "Please." "I'd like to." "Get to know you." " Really?" " Really." "Great!" "We need you." "Rory's showing signs of early dementia." "That would be great." "Welcome to the family!" "Thanks!" "Thanks so much!" "Please excuse Dr. Klinsch, she does have a tendency to pee her pants whenever we sign a new author." "That was just the one time." "Okay." "So, Klinsch and McLeish!" "I can't quite believe it!" "I'm gonna be published in one of those classic red and white covers!" "It's obviously not just about the covers, but they're so pretty." "And your list's amazing too, you published Glen Bucking." "Ah, Glen, fabulous writer." "And you know that you have something in common." "Really?" "No, what, you think so?" "God, he's up there with ***" "Quite possibly." "No, I meant that you were both discovered by your former publisher." " Tom." " Yes, he didn't last, they went their separate ways before the first novel was published." "By us." "Yeah, sounds like Tom." "Anyway." "Enough of the past, here's to the future." "So exciting!" "Blocked on this too, eh?" "I'm so sorry, would you excuse us, uh, me, for just a one second?" "Where's your bathroom?" "What are you doing here?" "Well, I figured what is going on." "You can't write the ending because once it's finished, you'll have no reason to see Tom ever again." "Oh, that is such a load of rubbish!" "Jane, dear, is everything all right?" "Yep, fine, I'll just be a minute." "In case you haven't noticed, I'm about to leave Tom and sign with a new publisher." "Oh, and one more minor detail," "I'm not writing my ending, I'm writing yours." "And I'm not you." " No, of course not, and your first novel wasn't a barely fictionized recant of your relationship with your father." "Oh, and remind me your middle name, Jane Darsie Lockhart?" "That means nothing, and anyway, I was gonna change your name, so you..." "Still here." "Sorry, I'm so sorry." "Now then, young lady, ready to go with a real publisher?" "Let me get this straight:" "you only take on writers you love." "Writing I love." "How interesting." "No, no, it isn't." "Can we get back to making Jane miserable?" "Fine." "If that's what you really want." "Have you thought a bit about what will happen if you succeed?" "Yeah." "I win." "Yes, but you'll lose her." "Who cares?" "It's not as if she wants to stay." "Motivation." "The heart of self-improvement." "A. Achieve your dreams." "Avoid negative people, things and places." "B. Believe in yourself and in what you can do." "C. Consider things on every angle and aspect." "Motivation comes from the..." "One of us really needs to get laid." "Oh God, yes." "We should." "Next week." "***" "Q. Quitters never win, and winners never quit." "So choose your fate, if you're going to be a quitter, or a winner." "Okay." "Here's the thought." "We could kill her dog." "I didn't know she had a dog." "She doesn't." "We could buy her one, and then kill it." "It wouldn't be a cute dog." "And you don't think that's a little bit, how can I put this, psychotic?" "Yeah, you're right." "She hasn't got a dog." "But she has got a screenwriter." "I'm not helping you kill Willie Scott, am I?" "Tom?" "Damn it." "She's still baking." "Bad cute cupcakes of Satan!" "Okay." "Here goes." "I hate these things." "I prefer the Route Master 2670 myself." "It's a bus joke." "Sorry." "No, no, I" " I get it, it's um, it's just I've never really met anyone else who made a bus joke before." "Hello, Jane." "Hello." "What do you want?" " I'll tell you what I don't want." " What?" "I don't want a cupcake." "So, two writers living under the same roof." "How is that working out?" "I bet it's fantastic." "Sharing ideas, be having float discussion, Willie must be a great boom." "Yes, yes he is." "So, what does the big man make of the new novel?" "You're right, it's not fair to ask you, I should ask him." "What, no, no, no, he loves it." "He just loves it." "Naturally he has... notes." " Naturally." "Willie has not asked to read one single page, has he?" "He's very busy with his screenplay." "Yes, the adaptation." "How's that going?" "Terrific." "It is going terrificly." "You don't know, do you?" "He doesn't discuss it with you?" " What's your point?" " He's using you." "That's rich, coming from you." "Come on, it's common knowledge, he wouldn't be adapting" "Happy ending if you hadn't insisted." " Oh yeah?" " Willie Scott's writing career peaked sometime around 1998." "He's a tonicless hack without a brain or a conscience who doesn't give a damn about you or your novel!" " Yeah?" " Behind you." "Hey!" "Willie!" " Is that fruit cake?" " Yeah." "It's frozen." "I brought a couple of spares, it's for your nose." "Look, I'm sorry about Willie." "He shouldn't have hit you even though you did deserve it." "He caught me off-guard." "Usually, I don't go down after the first punch." "Usually, it's about the third or fourth." "How did I get here?" "I made Willie carry you." " No, you didn't." " What's wrong now?" "It's not very manly, being carried upstairs by another bloke." "He's not still here, is he?" "No, I sent him outside to calm down." "Look, Jane, there is something I need to tell you." "Something I've never said before." "What's the capital of Ethiopia?" "A 1001 trivia questions?" "What's this for?" "Your dad hasn't..." "You're on the team!" "We're in the finals, actually." "So that was it?" "That's what you needed to say?" "No." "I..." "What I meant to say is" "Happy ending." "At the end, when things became, you know." "With us." "And the title." "I never told you." "The book." "It's good." "It's like the saddest music I've ever heard." "What the hell was that?" "What are you up to?" " I'm not doing anything." " Yes you are." "All this sad music crap and filling my head with doubts about Willie." "Why would you do that, why, unless..." "Unless..." "Oh, I know why." "You want me to sign a new book deal with you." "Like you couldn't hear me through the obvious concussion." "Pay attention, it is never going to happen." " I have a concussion?" " Oh, get off." "Get off this bus." "You know what?" "You really think I'd want you back?" "Why?" "Why would I do that to myself?" "You're distant at the best of times and when you're writing, your characters were more real to you than I was." "So no, Jane, I do not want you back." "I do not want you back." "How's the screenplay coming along?" "Your screenplay." "I was just thinking, we haven't really discussed it much." "At all." "And since, well, I wrote the novel, maybe I could... you know." "What I mean is, we should have more ebb and flow." "That's not a bad idea." "You know the scene in the book when the father goes on a bender, doesn't turn up for the mother's funeral..." "Yeah." "I remember." "Would you miss it?" "What?" "You—what— you can't—" "Willie, I think we need to talk this through." "I know what this is about, Janie." "You haven't written a word in two weeks, so you want to talk, instead of dealing with your blockage." "How many times?" "I am not blocked." "There was this writer I knew and... got stuck on a long lost sibling story ark and thought it was the end of his career, but..." "But he beat it." "Do you know how?" "How?" "He wrote naked." "Yeah." "Yeah, right." "Seriously." "The idea is you release yourself from the restrictions of the everyday so you can express your ideas in an uninhibited fashion." "Oh, okay." "I think you just want to be able to sit there and write while you stare at my tits." "They are great tits." "Tom?" "I want it on record that this is going too far, okay, she's only just started rebuilding her relationship with her dad." "I'm just trying to help her finish her book, and she'll thank me in the end." "First, we get rid of Willie." "Then, we work on papa." "So, Mr. Scott, Willie, our senior development executive has been looking for a very special screenwriter with a distinctive voice for a project which she has slated for next year." "When she heard you were adapting Jane Lockhart's" "Happy ending, she was excited." "We were all excited." "What company is this again?" "Have you spoken to my agent, or?" "Yeah, thank you, Priscilla." "You too." "Ciao." "Sure, she put us right on to you." "But if you're too busy right now, perhaps we should just leave it." "Oh, no no no." "I'm excited, it's a... it's not just, uh, just adaptations that I do." "I have my own material, you know." " Terrific!" "Well, we—you, you can share all that with our senior VP Bob and our head of deputy acquisitions Wonda who— they're gonna be over there next Friday." "You live in London, right?" "Mainly, but you know, I've got my place up country too, obviously." "Well, apologies, but it may involve dragging you out to the middle of nowhere." "But we're scouting Stephen's next pick." "Stephen?" "Seagal?" "Soderberg!" "He'll probably drop by and say hi, if that's okay?" "Aye, that would be fine!" " Taxi's here." " Where's my ticket?" "It's in your bag, where you put it two minutes ago." "Jane, this is an important trip for me." "These people are working with Soderberg." "They called me, and that just never happens." "You're right." "Doesn't." "And it's all because of you." "The truth is, they would never have asked to see me if I hadn't been adapting your novel." "That is rubbish." "You're a great writer." "Yeah, you're right." "Where's my treatments, did you tie it up?" "Willie!" "Breathe!" " How're you feeling?" " Good." " Sharp?" " Sharp, really." " Rory?" " Brand-new." "Mind you, I'm a bit worried because we don't know what he's gonna ask us." " It's a quiz." "It's a quiz, Rory." " All right, yeah." " Mr. L!" " Tom!" "Good to see you." " Big night, eh?" " Big night." "This is the final." "The winner gets a holiday in America and two tickets to Disneyland." "Wow." "That's wonderful!" "Good luck with that!" "Thanks, Tom, thanks." "Listen, I know that Jane and you haven't always seen eye to eye but" "I'm sure she'll be really happy to see you here." "Where is she?" "She's not here yet, but the quiz doesn't start till 8." " Oh, well." "Plenty of time then." " Plenty of time." "That was quick!" "I wasn't expecting you for another ten minutes." "I was just around the corner." "Where're you going?" "East end, please, the Walter Scott?" " Tada!" "What do you think?" " Lovely!" "Me and the lads discussed it." "Want to make her captain." "When she was a little girl, every penny her mother gave her, she put in her piggy bank, save it up, you know, to go to Disneyland." "Every birthday was Mickey Mouse, Disneyland, Mickey Mouse, you know?" "Every birthday." "Well..." "Until the seventh birthday." "Her mother took her to Woolworth for her present, her gift, and they were late at getting back..." "I lost it, Tom, you know, I was "Oh, I want my dinner on the table"." "That was the night I walked out on them." "If only that was the worst thing I did that night." "Excuse me, where're we going?" " The Rabbit buns." " No, I said the Walter Scott." " You sure?" " Of course I'm sure." "Hey!" "There's no need for that!" "They're both iconic pillars of our national literature," "I can't be responsible for the over-romanticization of Scottish history, that process to this date!" "It's an easy mistake to make." "All right, please, just please, hurry." "Please." "Hello, it's Benny Lockhart here, if you leave a message, then I'll get back to you soon." "Okey dokes!" "Bye!" "Do you know why they were late back?" "Yeah." "Yeah, of course you do, because it's in the book, isn't it?" "Her mother dropped dead in Woolworth." "Her mother was lying dead in the aisle and—" "Daddy was spending her Mickey Mouse money on booze!" "I swore I would never touch another drop after that, not a drop." "You look familiar." "You on the telly?" "No, I've done a few interviews, but—" "I know, you're that writer, Jane something!" "Aye, my wife read your book." " Oh yeah?" " Yeah, what's it called again?" " Happy ending." "Happy ending." "Aye, she's hypnotizing by the end." "You wrote it ***?" "God, you must be a right miserable ***." "Do I know you from—?" "I'm out of gas!" "No, come back, I need to get to the... pub." "Years later, I discovered that the police brought her back two minutes after I'd left home." "Two minutes, Tom." "You know, I realize that I can never make it up to that little girl, that seven-year-old Jane." "Can't do it." "But if we win tonight, Tom, if we win tonight," "I'm gonna take her to Disneyland." "Aye!" "I don't mean the shit one in Paris, the real Disneyland." "No offense, I know you're French." "None taken." "Gentlemen, ladies, can you please take your places for the quiz final." "She'll be here, she'll be here." "Nothing's gonna happen, not again, no." "Help!" "Help!" "You know what?" "I'll see you in a sec." " Tom?" " Roddy." "Call if off, call it off, bring her here, immediately." "She's gone." "We've lost her." "Sorry!" "Captains, last call, can you please bring your team lists to the adjudicator's table." "Benny!" "If I don't get your list, you'll forfeit your place." " Benny, come on." " Come on, Benny." "Two more minutes, lads." " Benny, I'm—I'm sorry." " It's okay, son." "It's not your fault." " Well, actually—" "Okay, that's enough, let's be going with us." "Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the grand final of the Walter Scott..." "Dad!" "Dad?" "Question one:" "who was William Shakespeare's wife?" "The indisputable winners, Benny and his Jets!" "Fact is, we're not dog killers." "What was the worst thing we actually achieved?" "Kidnapping a pot plant." "There's our fatal flaw." "At heart, we're nice guys." "I'm going to tell her everything." "I will not do nudity unless it is essential to the plot." "Oh, you must be joking." "Jane?" " Just go away!" " I've got to talk to you." "Please, open the door." "Hold on a minute." "Willie?" " Wait to hear about our great deal on home insurance." "Have you ever thought about ***, Jane." "what would happen if your house caught fire..." "Shit!" "Shit!" " Jane!" "You okay?" " Shit!" "Stop looking!" "What the hell are you doing here anyway?" "I came to apolo— wow." "Is that my novel?" "No no no, give it back." "Give it back!" "I paid good money for this!" "I'm going to read it." "No, you don't get to read anything until it's finished." "Okay." "Here." "Thank you." "Good to know you can behave like a grown-up once in a— where is the rest of it?" "Tom!" "Come out of there!" "You *** bastard!" "Give me back my novel!" "How could you do that?" "I can't believe you." "Even you." "So what did you think?" "It's merely the first couple of chapters, so who can say?" "However, putting to one side that you're whining of a paid author who clearly got lucky with her debut," "I'd say this is a very good start." "Well..." "Coming from an ever even has-been, owner of a third way publishing company," "I'd have to say thank you." "Naturally, I have a few notes." "Naturally." "For instance," "the first page, I don't get it, there is something..." "The phone." "Willie!" " Hi, Janie." "Hi!" "How's the trip going, did you meet Soderberg?" "There was no meeting." "I've been stuck in the arse end of nowhere, couldn't get a cab, I've been walking for nine hours in the rain, my phone died, I've only just now found a phone." "Ah, Willie." "I'm cold and wet and so... so miserable." "You know, the funny thing is, even though the trip turned out so badly, it made me realize a few things." "I miss you, Janie." "You're the best thing in my life and..." "I love you." "Janie, let's get married." "There we go." " He's sick!" " Oh come on, he's just taking a piss now." "He said he loves me." "You heard him." "Actually I didn't." "Maybe it was in your vivid imagination." "And I love Willie too." "He makes me... happy." "Any chance of that cup of tea, doll?" "Aw, he's a sweetheart." "Priscilla?" "Listen, sweetheart, get out the big pen." "It's time to build a bastard from a first draft." "I've just finished the script." "A lifetime with Willie Scott." "If that doesn't make her miserable, nothing will." "Look, I know things haven't worked out for the two of you, but surely you don't really, actually, totally, completely want her to be unhappy." "Of course I don't." "I mean—" "Oh, tu comprends rien." "It's tricky, okay?" " Whatever." "Which is why Shakespeare never left New York again." "Okay, um, chapter 21, read it or be punished." "He's only gone and changed the ending!" "Wow!" "All you did was change her title and she thought you were a complete wanker!" "That's Wan Kere, he was a 19th century" "South American revolutionary." "This is gonna break her heart." "Yeah well, great." "Now all you gonna do is make sure she reads it." "Mission accomplished." " Yeah." "You've given it a happy ending?" "And your point?" "The point is Jane's novel doesn't end happily." "Who the hell wants to walk out of a movie feeling miserable?" " You have to change it back." " I don't think so." "That script says more about my love for her than I can ever put into words." "She doesn't know it yet, does she?" "Do you have any idea what this'll do to her?" "To both of you?" "I made a mistake and I can't take it back, but Willie, if you truly love her, change it." "What's going on here?" "You just don't get her, do you?" "Oh, I get her all right." "Every night I get her." "Any way up I fancy." "Hit a sick man, would you, eh?" "What's this, oh!" "Remind me, does the bridge explode in the novel?" "Hi, Janie, I'm home!" "Any chance of a wee cup of tea?" "WILLIE!" "I just don't understand how you can do this over a dumb ending." " No, no you don't." "Well, if there is any consolation, Janie," "I don't think me and you would have worked out anyway." "I just don't get all that worshipping your pain stuff." "Daddy issues." "Tom, if she hasn't delivered, you have to take Pandemic Media's offer." "Mark my words:" "never going to happen." "Well, I'll have no option but to declare you bankrupt and call it a deceiver." " You're my relationship manager, right?" " Yes, so?" "So what should I do about my relationship?" "Oh, for God's sake." "Do you love her?" "Tom?" " Jane!" " Hi!" "Tom's not here." "He should be back any minute if you wanna wait." "No, I don't think so." "I'm heading off for a bit of a break." "I just came to drop this off." "It's my new novel." "I finished it." "That's a relief." "Between you and me, your books are the only thing stopping this place from going tits up." "So where should I leave it?" " Just put it on his desk." " Okay." "Bye." " I don't know what to do." " Don't know." "Hold it." "Jane!" "Jane!" "Bastard!" "What?" "I should be stopping seeing you." "I finished it!" "Leave me alone." "All I want is to be alone!" "Jane!" "Listen, I know you're in there." "And I know it sounds crazy, but I was trying to help." "Jane?" "Your dad's worried about you and so am I." "He told me where to find you." "All you care about is what my book can do to your damn company." "Well, you got what you wanted." "Jane, please, open the door." "Jane, I'm not good at this countryside stuff, all right?" "I think I saw a bear." "Jane?" "I'm sorry." "Thanks a lot." "I deserve that." "I'll just go, shall I?" "I'll go." "Putain!" "Merde, voilà ce que t'es, une grosse merde !" "Mais ta gueule le mouton !" "Je t'emmerde !" "Alors là ça y en a, alors des vaches et tout, mais du réseau..." "Putain !" "It's eight miles to the nearest village." "I don't expect to see you when I wake up." "Good night." "What the hell were you thinking?" " About the plant?" " No, about me!" "Idiot." "Here's the thing." "You go to some dark places when you write." "You bring out stuff most people prefer to keep locked up, so I thought maybe if I made you miserable—" "I'd be able to finish my novel?" "Well, that's genius." " I was wrong." "Of course you were wrong." "You don't have to be miserable to write, you do it because you have to, because it gnaws away at your insides if you try to ignore it." "Because if you don't write, then you might as well be dead." "And what do you mean you were wrong, you got the novel, didn't you?" "And Tom and Roddy wrote the plan that was a roaring success." "Not exactly." "The last chapter, it doesn't work." "It needs a re-write." " How much of it?" " All of it." "Are you all right?" "No." "I'm bloody not all right and I want more chocolate." "Maybe it would help if you talked it through." "What have I missed?" "I think the problem might be that you don't really get to choose your ending." "It has to follow naturally from what comes before, or it doesn't feel true." " Oh, it's so insightful." " I want to start with Darsie." " Goodie." " I don't understand her." " Okay." "I mean, why is she in love with a man who betrays her so utterly?" "He's emotionally crippled, has an uncomfortable tendency for mean spiritingness—" " He has nice... hair." "Okay, so yes, maybe there's an element of autobiography." "Which means you're the reason I can't write." " Me?" "At some point during the last few weeks it dawned on me that when I finished this novel, we were finished too." "And some insane part of me doesn't want that to happen." "You're my block, Tom." " But I want you to finish it." "Yeah, of course you want me to finish it, and for what, so you can turn a profit." "I've sold it." "What?" "I've sold the business." "No, you can't have sold it." "That stupid company is you." "Get it back." "You can't do this to me." "I'm on the moral high ground here and I'm not getting off now." "You sold it." " Yeah." "And you can take all the time you need for the last chapter, I made it part of a deal." "Tom?" "I didn't sign with Klinsch and McLeish, I couldn't do it." "Jane." "I've spoken to my relationship manager—" "If I hear the word sad, beautiful or music, you're a dead man." "Apparently," "I block you." " And I block you too." "What?" "What could possibly be more important?" "I know how it ends." "I'm just gonna get my laptop." "I don't care." "You are on fire!" "You're pretty hot yourself, baby." "Tom?" "What are you doing?" "Tom?" "Oh, my God, Tom!" "Why is it that the saddest endings always seem the truest?" "In the stories I told myself, I was always the heroin." "Always reaching for my happy ending." "It didn't turn out that way." "I won't get to spend the rest of my life with him." "But I was loved and that's enough." "Ladies and gentlemen," "Jane Lockhart will now be signing copies of her chart-topping new novel, You'll catch your death." "Well, Darsie, back where you belong." "Are you actually talking to your book?" "You don't think it's a little bit tacky?" "Tacky?" "We have canapés." "Now, get signing." "Right, you're ready?" "Go on, just do it." "Okay, pay attention, class, pay attention!" "Jane Lockhart, of course, followed Charlotte Brontë as only the second writer in English to design and build her own hovercraft." "Hovercraft." "H-O-V-E-R-C-R-A-F-T." "See?" "They believe anything you tell them." "I thought you said that Pandemic Media people were coming today." "Where are they?" " You're looking at them." "What do you mean?" "They want someone in the company that won't let you get away with your usual extravagance." "Someone hard line." "Someone disciplined." " Cheers!" " Brilliant!" " Cheers, thank you!" " Thank you." " You read it." " Yeah." "Her father was really bad to her." "A nasty piece of work." " No." "No no no, he wasn't nasty." " But..." "She forgives him in the end." "Mr. L!" "If you think that was bad, wait till you see what she's done with you in the new one!" "Mr. Lockhart, Benny, would you give us a second?" " Yeah, sure." " Thanks." " Look." " Yes?" "You are frankly about the most infuriating person I've ever met, which considering I work in Scottish publishing, is saying something." "But we couldn't have got here without each other." "So Jane, what I'm saying is, will you..." "Could you..." "Is that a contract?" "Two more books and an option for a third." "Exclusive?" "Naturally, we'd have to work very very very very closely." " With lots of notes?" " An excessive amount of notes." "Okay, I do." "I mean, I mean, I will." "I will, I mean" "Okay, just give it here." "Jamie Miller." "She's a new one." "100 pages of the bullshit." "100 pages." "Not even gonna read his." "Kaitlin." "Doesn't turn up most of the time." "Hasn't even put his name on the front cover." "Who is this meant to be?" "I can tell by his handwriting it's Paul's." "Paul thinks he can just draw pictures when I don't know what he's trying to say." "He's got another thing coming." "Shauna Wesburd." "What does she want?" "There's nothing in this, is there?" "Hasn't even bothered to do it."

"Subject is approaching." "Get him out of here." "He must never know he was captured." "We have something very special in mind for him." "Dr. Tabor will be along in a moment." "I'll see you soon, Max." "When can l take him back?" "Later today." "How did you spot him?" "How did you spot him?" "Quite by accident in Innsbruck." "The fortunate part was that he didn't see me." "Considering what he did to you last year," "I'm sure you would have preferred to handle him yourself." "We are all on the same team." "So long as you don't waste him." "I warn you, Doctor, he will be difficult." "His passport, everything-- forgeries." "Naturally." "Karl Maur, this is Ernst Bandar." "The Bureau has assigned Ernst as my special advisor on this project." "Actually, Dr. Tabor knows espionage as well as I do." "Better, perhaps." "Thank you." "What is your name?" "What name are you traveling under?" "Fred..." "Stark." "What was your mission?" "Where were you born?" "Cleveland..." "Ohio." "What was your mother's name?" "Maria." "What was she like?" "I never knew her." "As I warned you, Doctor, he will tell us nothing of consequence." "You are quite wrong." "He has already told us something of consequence." "Paris left Vienna this morning." "He should have been here in Geneva eight hours ago." "Overseas operator, please." "You are my son." "A father and a son should be friends." "Uh-uh, uh-uh." "If you were my friend, you wouldn't have driven my mother away." "Why did you drive her away?" "She was unfit to raise you." "She loved me." "She was no good." "You're a liar!" "Now you find her, and you get her back!" "Never!" "She will never come back!" "Dr. Escobar, admitting desk, please." "Doctor?" "Dr. Escobar, admitting desk, please." "What's up, Barney?" "Jim wants us in Geneva." "Paris didn't make it yesterday." "I thought he'd completed the mission." "He did." "The Secretary's been notified." "We have to assume that Paris is in enemy hands." "If he turns up, we'll put him through standard clearance procedure." "You'll handle the medical end for the Department." "Dr. Burrough, please call one-two-five West." "Dr. Burrough, please call one-two-five West." "Let's go." "Corporal, you may have your dog now." "Oh, thank you, Doctor." "Come, Max." "Max, boy." "Max!" "What have you done to him?" "I can assure you, he is in no pain." "Brain cells have no feelings." "What have you done?" "!" "There are other dogs, Corporal." "Well... are you convinced?" "Mm, he was ready to kill the one man he cared most about, but, uh, there is a difference between dog and man." "The emotions in man are more complex." "That is the only difference." "We were talking about love." "About the first time you fell in love." "About Inga and Meerghan." "Tell us again how you first met Meerghan?" "He resists you every step of the way." "It won't help him." "Now there is no harm in telling us about those days long ago in Amsterdam, when you were traveling around Europe." "Meerghan was a great magician." "You admired him." "Inga was the girl in the act." "She was very beautiful, wasn't she?" "Oh, yes." "She was..." "She was beautiful." "She had that long, blonde hair." "And that voice." "Leave me alone." "I don't want to talk about that anymore." "Meerghan was to teach you... everything." "But you and Inga fell in love." "Meerghan was very jealous." "He warned you." "Stay away from her!" "Stay away from her or I'll kill her!" "Inga." "Inga, I'm afraid for you." "Oh, Inga, I love you." "I want to marry you." "That gun!" "That gun!" "He's crazy." "There's such hatred in his eyes." "He's..." "Inga, he's a madman." "Look at her." "Look at her." "Look at your sweetheart." "Look at her; she's dead!" "It's your fault!" "No!" "No, you killed her!" "You shot her!" "You!" "You shot her!" "Yes, I shot her!" "Now kill me!" "Kill me!" "No." "His inhibitions against murder are very strong, but it won't matter." "Inga." "Inga's dead." "Inga's dead, that's a long time ago." "What's happening?" "He is fighting to come out of it." "I think he's had enough." "Prepare the patient; he's ready." "Twice father figures." "Figures roughly like his control." "I've taken away women..." "he's loved." "I'll need additional personnel from the Bureau." "No problem." "They're anxious for your success." "In a century of violence, perhaps yours will be the ultimate weapon-- assassins to order." "Dr. Tabor." "The patient is ready." "Thank you." "The brain is a machine we are just beginning to understand." "The kill center is located here in the lateral hypothalamus." "Because we are dealing with a man, not a dog, we will activate in three phases, meanwhile setting up the specific emotional situation designed to reinforce and direct the kill reflex." "Remove it." "The electrode is implanted through the palate." "There must be no marks." "Turn his head." "Uh, Geneva operator, please." "May we have a cabin, please?" "Barney, you and Dana try to retrace Paris's route." "I'll go to Innsbruck, see what develops there." "Doug, you'll cover here." "If anything turns up..." "Yes?" "Jim, I had an accident." "Uh-huh." "I understand." "Are you hurt?" "No, but I've decided to check into the Maldorf Inn for a while and recuperate." "All right, take it easy." "Don't worry about a thing." "Following standard procedure." "He's checked into the Maldorf Inn, so he can be contacted anonymously." "What happened?" "Said his bike went off the road four kilometers east of Arldenz." "Any injury?" "No, just shaken up." "We'll have to start clearance procedure immediately." "Doug, you and I'll check into the Maldorf Inn separately." "Barney, you and Dana investigate the accident." "When you find that motorcycle, go over it with a fine tooth comb." "Fingerprints, everything." "Right, Jim." "I'll take along a facsimile setup and arrange direct contact with computer control." "Good." "I want an auxiliary and a radio." "We can't trust the telephone." "Mm." "With clearance procedure, we have to assume that Paris is being watched." "Well, how will you communicate with him?" "We'll use the same code we did on the mission." "Okay, thank you." "Wait a minute." "Does he... feel anything?" "Discomfort." "He doesn't understand it." "He has no idea he's going to kill his control." "Murder." "Murder." "Murder." "Murder." "Murder!" "There are eight new guests." "Among them, probably his control." "Who are they?" "A U.S. Army colonel on leave, his wife, an English physician named Winters, a French professor, his wife and son, a Scottish birdwatcher named MacPherson." "And an Enid Brugge, tourist from Belgium." "Enjoying yourself, Mr. MacPherson?" "Aye, aye, thank you." "It's a lovely resort you've got here." "Everything we get is either no record, gas station attendants or mechanics." "None of these fingerprints matches anything we have in the computer bank." "Then we can clear him at this end." "Yeah." "What's bothering you, Barney?" "What happened to the headlight?" "Seeds, local dirt, a few dog hairs." "German Shepherd, I'd say." "Plenty of them around here." "Well, there's no indication of post-hypnotic suggestion." "Just the appropriate symptoms of fatigue, hunger and exposure." "Only prescription for that, Paris, is food, sleep and a little vacation." "Doug, what about the nightmare?" "Probably just triggered by general anxiety." "Medically, you're okay, Paris." "The rest is up to Jim." "The thing that bothers me is the way the car forced you off the road and didn't stop." "I don't know, Jim." "I just don't know." "Doug, if Paris was being watched, he was probably followed here, so you've been made." "You better check out tonight and file your report from Geneva." "Right." "What about you?" "I'll go out the back, the way I came in." "Paris and I'll stay here for a few days." "Jim... what's bothering you?" "Nothing bothering me." "If you need a vacation, this is certainly the place to have it." "We have to wait for Dana and Barney anyway." "Sure." "I can understand that, but you seem to have some reservations about this." "Look, Paris, I just want you to unwind." "How can I unwind with this thing hanging over me?" "You know what'll happen to me if you don't clear me." "Who said anything about not clearing you?" "Come on, Jim, don't play games." "What's this all about...?" "I'm sorry." "You're right." "You're right." "Scotch and water, please." "Thank you." "Brandy, please." "May I?" "Yes, of course." "Fred Stark, New York City." "Enid Brugge, Brussels." "You're a long way from home, Mr. Stark." "These days, anyplace is just around the corner." "You look sad." "I don't like that." "I'm sorry." "Maybe I am sad, but I don't want to spoil your evening." "How about a dance?" "You can't polka and be sad at the same time." "It's impossible." "Let's see if that's true." "What's the matter?" "Nothing." "I'm sorry." "You're doing very well." "He's a very complex man." "I don't think he'll be easy for either one of us." "If he were easy, I wouldn't have needed anyone as capable as you." "I heard that you were a very hard man to work for." "I'm happy that you're pleased with me." "What man wouldn't be pleased with you?" "Good night." "I'll get Jim." "Paris was responsible for Maur's arrest last year." "Now it's just possible that Maur spotted him somewhere in Austria." "They obviously had him, Jim." "If you report this, Paris will be through." "I'm not going to report anything until I find out what they've done with him." "Barney, check the East European Trade Commission." "How is Paris, Jim?" "He's not himself, Dana." "Now look, there's just a long shot." "On Paris' clothing, we found some dog hairs:" "three German Shepherd dog hairs." "I use to have one of these silent dog whistles when I was a little girl." "My dog hated it." "Betty Williamson, Toronto." "I'm a buyer for Northern Hemisphere Industries, Ltd." "This is your first visit, Miss Williamson." "Yes, it is." "There are certain formalities." "Will you take Miss Williamson to Herr Maur's office, please?" "I'll tell him you're on your way." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Miss Williamson, I am Karl Maur." "Please, come into my office." "Uh, please be seated, Miss Williamson." "Thank you." "Now, uh, may I see your credentials?" "Yes." "Passport and letter of introduction." "Yes, everything is in order." "Now, please let me show you some of our displays." "We are firmly convinced the way to peace is through trade." "So are we, Herr Maur." "This way, please." "These woods have no right in being so beautiful." "Neither have you." "Come here." "I thought you wanted to go for a walk?" "We haven't done much walking." "I lied." "You should be ashamed." "Oh, I am, I am." "I really am." "You're forgiven." "You can lure me into the woods anytime." "Fred... you and I, we have something marvelous, don't we?" "Couldn't be better." "What's wrong, darling?" "Nothing, nothing." "Fred, I have to tell you something." "Something important." "Shh..." "Not now." "How'd it go?" "Very well." "I told him the story of my life, a very sad story indeed." "And what was his reaction?" "Compassion." "Are you sure you're creating a murderer?" "Yes, I'm quite sure." "It's compassion he felt for that girl long ago." "And it's compassion that will make him kill tonight." "Were you followed?" "No, I don't think so." "How are you feeling?" "I don't know, Jim." "I don't know." "Sometimes, I-I think I'm okay." "Other times, I feel like I'm... fighting myself." "Jim, is there anything different about me?" "I mean, can you see any difference?" "Tell me the truth." "I've got some bad news for you, Paris." "We've established that you were their prisoner." "What?" "Yes." "Where?" "We think on the fourth floor of the East European Trade Center in Vienna." "We don't know why, but Barney and Dana are going in tonight to try to find out." "Well... then I'm through." "Come on, we're not going to lose you." "We've got to do everything we can to find out what happened, so that we can clear you." "Jim, I know you're going to try, but... you know..." "Now I've got more bad news." "Enid Brugge is not who you think..." "I know, Jim." "I know." "She told me." "She's Marla Kassel, a Communist agent." "But she's defected, Jim." "She's got friends in Switzerland." "She's waiting for a contact to help her get across the frontier." "Paris, go easy." "Easy." "He walked very purposefully up the hillside." "I couldn't follow without being seen." "Paris, what is it?" "Nothing." "Nothing." "I'm all right, Jim." "Paris, do you think it's more than just a coincidence that the girl shows up here now, and is making a play for you?" "She's not making a play, Jim." "Can't you understand real emotion?" "Or have you become some kind of a machine?" "Sure." "Sure." "Now I understand." "You made up all that stuff about me being captured because you want the girl for yourself." "Why, Paris..." "You're gonna send me home, aren't you?" "You're gonna let them destroy me so you can have her." "I'm not sending you anywhere, yet." "Then you just stay away from that girl." "Do you hear me?" "Stay away from the girl!" "Doug, we've got to find out what's wrong with Paris, and we have to do it fast." "Can you join Barney and Dana in Vienna this afternoon?" "I'm on my way." "Right." "Are you sure you left your purse in my office, Miss Williamson?" "Yes, yes, Herr Maur." "I must have those asthma pills." "If I wait until morning, I'll be in the hospital." "Oh, here it is." "Could you get me a glass of water, please?" "No!" "An electrode." "I'm sorry I caused so much trouble." "But I'm feeling much better now." "I'm pleased." "Thank you." "Good-bye." "Good night, darling." "I'm afraid it's almost all over for us." "Don't say that." "I can't wait here any longer." "The police will find me." "Well, then we'll go away together." "Where?" "Someplace." "Anyplace where we can be together." "Lateral hypothalamus, the kill center." "Kill center?" "Could they have done something like that to Paris?" "No, they'd have to be much more subtle." "Now?" "Yes." "I have the bullet wound over here." "Are you sure he's going to hear it with the silencer?" "Yes, there'll be a definite popping sound." "Call him." "Cabin 16, please." "Hello." "Yes, Enid." "He told me he was your friend, but he said for me never to see you again." "He frightens me, Fred." "He threatened me, Fred." "Who is he?" "I'm afraid." "Fred, someone's here." "Who are you?" "Help me, Fred!" "Help me!" "Enid!" "Who's there?" "What's wrong, Enid?" "What's happening?" "No." "Enid!" "This would never have fooled him." "You asked the bureau for someone... expendable." "Through the palate." "I'll call Jim." "Oh." "Inga." "Oh." "Oh, Inga." "Jim, we've got to get Paris to a hospital and get that implant out as soon as possible." "Okay, Doug, you and Barney get out of there." "You killed her, Meerghan!" "Paris, no!" "Meerghan!" "Meerghan, you killed her, you butcher!" "Paris, wait a minute!" "Paris." "Paris, listen to me." "This is Jim." "They've done something to you." "They're trying to get you to kill me." "Now, Paris, fight them!" "Fight them!" "Hold it!" "I seem to have underestimated you both." "This is the man we have been searching for." "His control." "Kill him." "Jim." "Jim." "Paris, Tabor and Bandar have been taken care of." "Good." "How do you feel?" "Feel like, uh, like somebody just took something out of my head." "Is that him?" "Is that him?"

"Bravo, Hüseyin!" "Wicked!" " Osman Abi, isn't that kid goat done yet?" " Still cooking." "Drink up, drink up!" "C'mon, cheers!" "Hüseyin Abi!" "What's up?" "Müjgan Abla is in labor!" " What?" " Müjgan Abla is in labor!" "Müjgan's in labor!" " It's early." " Calm down, Hüseyin." " Müjgan's in labor!" " Relax, I'll get you there." "Go, go, go!" "Hüseyin, where are you going?" " To Ezine." " Go, go, go!" " It's early." " So be it." "It was due next week." "I wouldn't be at work if I'd known." "Relax." "It'll be healthy, it'll be perfect." "Don't worry." "Trust me." "Hüseyin, stay with me." "You promised." "I'm here, beautiful." "I'm here, my love." "I'm here, don't worry." "OK, Müjgan." "You're doing great." "Good job." "Remember, breathe in, breathe out and push." " C'mon now." " OK." "What's going on, Hüseyin?" "I did the breathing and my heart started pounding." " I have to go out." " Hüseyin!" "Doctor, can we switch to a C-section?" "She's in pain." "Why the need?" "Müjgan is doing fine." "Keep pushing, c'mon." "Don't give the mom stress." "I need water." "Can I have some water?" "Cold or normal, Hüseyin?" "For heaven's sake!" "You're making her tense up." "What about giving her some support?" " C'mon, Müjgan." "Push." "Ignore him." " What else am I supposed to do?" "Stop butting in then hiding under there." "You want me to grab the baby?" "Do your job." "What about patient psychology?" "I asked for water, not raki." "I'm having stress." "I'm all over the place." "Where's the support?" "As a dad?" "As a husband?" "What the hell?" "I thought I'd give hera fright to help her relax." "Idiot!" "Out!" "Get out!" "Am I supposed to deal with you or deliver the baby?" "Lift it up!" "You get out!" "It's your fault." "You came and she tensed up." "Out!" "Get another doctor." "Are there no other doctors in this hospital?" "Has it arrived?" "Whee!" "Six months later" "Did you wake up?" "Did you wake up?" "You're a gem." "My little tiger." "My little Bayram." "Come here, c'mon." "You strapping young thing." "Look at you." "Pooh!" "That stinks!" "Did your mom feed you meatballs, son?" "Phew, c'mon." "C'mon now." "Don't cry." "Let Daddy turn on the TV for you." "It's OK when I put you down." "You know what?" "Where's that sardine, huh?" "Look, I turned on the TV for you." "I turned on the TV for you, see?" "Oof!" "Bayram Berk, you're a true miracle." "How can you eat 2 grams and make 3 kilos?" "Good grief!" "Allah allah be." "Dur sakin dur." "Look, it's Firuzan Abla." "I get exhausted performing." "Everything must be perfect." "But guys, now really isn't a good time." " Thanks." " She got to be a star." "You must always be prepared." "Even out shopping!" "But at home I wanna leave all that behind." "My home looks like this." "Rızgara." "A retreat from the brouhaha." "Rızgara awaits you too." "Rızgara Homes Await Occupants" "Look at the place." "It would scare a dog." "Shame on you!" "Is this what I get for the commercial?" "Business is bad." "Finally I get a commercial..." "And it's a waste of time." "Firuzan, our deal with the guys was for flats." "Could a commercial get you a flat in Istanbul?" "Is this Istanbul, Yaşar?" "It's near enough." "The metro's coming." "Spaniard, get the guy out of my hair." "Or I'll tear his hair out." "Sorry, Yaşar." "I'm done with you." "It's over." "Screw you!" " You see?" " Firuzan, please." "Calm down." "The metro's coming." "Coming where?" "So is the Black Sea." "Great!" "What more could I ask for?" "Yes, Hüseyin?" "Get to be a star and you forget us." "Hüseyin, can I call back later?" "OK, sure." "Sure, Abla." "Have a nice day." "I can't talk now, my nerves are shot." "Hüseyin, if only it was a wedding." "When it's a club I worry about you all night." "Honey, it's work." "And work is money." "Müjgan." "Let me take a peek before going." "No chance, Hüseyin." "I just got him off to sleep." "C'mon, please." "I never stop thinking about him." "Just a peek." "OK, but be quiet." "Sure." " He's just like me." " Shh!" "Oh no!" "Great, there you go." "What now?" "How could I help it?" "Hey, Bayram Berk?" " I mean, Hüseyin." " Hey, Bayram Berk?" "Bravo, Hüseyin." "I mean, bravo." "Did you wake up?" "Bayram, what should Daddy get you?" "What should Daddy get you?" "What should Daddy get you from the club, huh?" "Go, Hüseyin." "He'll be up all night." "Müjgan, let me have a kiss now he's awake." "OK, OK, OK." "I know what I'm in for." "Why are women so cranky after giving birth?" "What was a kiss gonna do?" "He was awake anyway." "Damn you!" "Deniz!" "Oh my God!" "You die first, then me." "Don't hide behind him." " He's talking to you." " Don't abandon me." "Hey, calm down, friend." "Quiet!" "Come out or I'll shoot the guy." " Do as he says." " No, please!" "Friend, what's up?" "See that woman?" "I gave her everything and still she dumped me." "Now she's dancing for joy because I'm a wreck." "Shame on her." "But you can talk about it." "Huh?" "It won't work with guns." "Huh?" "What's your name?" " Esat." " What do you do?" " Sell water." " Great!" "A nice, clean job." " What did you say?" " He's lying." "He cheated on me with my hairdresser." "So damn what?" "!" "I'm not some agony aunt." "Just talk and make up." "Talk to each other." "And lower that gun." "We have families." "You go drinking and swagger in here." "Hey, where are you from?" "Not from around here." " Çan." "So what?" " Same as our Kamil." " Which Kamil?" " Armless Kamil." "That's Circumciser Kamil." "Erkan, you're mixing them up." "We don't have a Circumciser Kamil." "Do you mean Ferruh?" "Ha, Ferruh." "Yes, Ferruh." "How's he doing?" "Is he OK?" "Not bad." "He's old now, but OK." "Still chopping." " He's such a scream, huh?" " Yes, he has this goat story." "Just hear it." "It's hilarious." "See?" "We're friends." "So drop the gun, avoid any accidents." "Let's sit fora decent chat." "Want a drink?" "Well, OK." "Damn you, Süleyman!" "Damn your heroics!" "You broke my clarinet." "I got him calm." "Why hit him?" " My clarinet!" " Easy, Hüseyin." "Good grief." "Still, let's be thankful." "Astray bullet could've blighted our family." "I haven't been home yet." "The cops kept us all night." "And they shut the club." "My job's gone." "My clarinet too." "Look, it's totally kaput." "How can I get a new one?" "Go home and get some rest." "We'll handle it." "Like how, Dad?" "For goodness sake!" "You put every cent into this place." "It's opening any day." "Yes." "Your grandad's all fired up." "We'll see." "God help us." "Amen." "God give you sense, Halim!" "Is a camel gonna save us?" "I said don't, you old boozer." "Damn you!" "Keep your nose out, hag." "As if I have money!" "Well, if you drink and gamble all winter." "It's a sin!" "He'll slaughter you in the next life." "Fine if he catches me." "Anything you frown on is a sin." "Who butchers tiny kid goats and stuffs rice up their asses?" "That's different." "Look at the beast!" "Morning, Hüseyin." "Morning." "C'mon now." "C'mon." "Dad, what's going on?" "Grandad's making camel sausage." "He says it'll sell." "Huh?" "C'mon." "What can I do?" "We're out of money." "Brown bread again, Müjgan?" "It's healthy, Hüseyin." "I've had it with diets!" "I'm fading away." "Is that so bad?" "The weight's falling off." "No this, no that." "Will it never end?" "I'm like a demented fox." "I dream about pastries." "I know, honey." "But just lose a tiny bit more." " It's easy now." "You're almost done." " What's easy?" "9 months of your cravings and life was hell." "You wanted watermelon in midwinter." "Think of me." "I was born with cravings." "It's how I am." " I've had cravings for 35 years." " Don't do it then!" " You'll be a sofa again in 2 weeks." " A sofa?" "That's respect for a husband!" "Thank you." "I'm sorry." "I know you're thinking of me, but I need sympathy." "No work, no clarinet." "What do we do?" "Look." "I have you, you have me." " Huh?" "We have the baby." " Thank goodness." "We'll figure something out." "Don't worry." "Let's hope, honey." "What's that lipstick?" "From the dancer." "She grabbed me from behind." "She grabbed you." "Wait till I grab you!" "I'm going to work." "For goodness sake." "That baby has to grow up fast." "He made her so cranky." " Dead." " Huh?" "The shaft's cracked inside." "Toss it." "It's trash." " No, really?" " Really." "Hey, Cezmi." "Give him a hand." "Got any good clarinets?" "Here." " Whose was this?" " Porky Ahmet's in his time." "Porky Ahmet?" "Who was he?" " From Biga." "Died of a heart attack." " Ha." "The Sabancis' Süleyman, he had a heart attack too." " So did our Şükrü, the violinist." " Must be an epidemic." "Nice clarinet." "What do you want for it?" " 3000." " Huh?" "He wants 3000 lira." "How can I pay 3000 lira for a clarinet?" "His daughter ran off, that's why he wants 3000." "He needs the money." "Erkan." "Are you gonna shut up?" "Don't make me regret bringing you." "Hüseyin." "Borrow your dad's sax." "Play that." "Sax?" "No, c'mon." "Forget business being bad." "So long as we have love, baby." "You bet we do, honey." "Our sommelier suggests this wine for your menu choice." "Really?" "Which one is that?" "Ha." "Your sommelier chose this?" "1962." "A vintage year." "You mean history." "Excuse me?" "I mean the wine's old." "OK, honey." "Let's go for it." "No, baby." "Umm..." "He's saying 62." "That's nearly my sister's age." "It's like she's right here." "I can't take it." "Umm, sorry." "Can we return to the present?" "Hey, wait." " Isn't he an actor at that table?" " Which one?" "The guy with the beard." "He's on TV." "Ha." "He's in that series 'Under the Pine Trees'." "He's an actor." "Hey, it's money." "C'mon, get over there." "Good evening." " Hello." "Bon appétit." " Good evening." " Welcome to our town." " Thanks." "We know you from TV of course." "We watch all the time." "Welcome." "Shall we play something?" "Efsun?" "You say." "What should they play?" "Some Halil Sezai?" "Sure." "Who's he?" "The guitarist." "You know, that quiet guy." "With the forelock." "We can do him, but it won't sound good with these instruments." " How about a classic?" " Sure, OK." " Let's say "Who's Tired of Loving"." " Ah, nice." "Wait a second." "I wanna take a picture of our hands." "Wait." "Wait, I'll show you." "Ah, it's great." " Let's see." " Wait, let me take another." " It's great, look." " Great." "How good is that." "We're so good together." "Suppose we get married?" "Was that a bit forward?" "I dunno, we just get along so well." "I suddenly got all, you know." "I'm a romantic, it's the Cancer thing." " Firuzan?" " OK, maybe you don't want to." "Marriage is something else." "I'd understand." "Firuzan, I'm married." "Well, I was married." "In Spain." "What?" "Yes." "Wait a second." "ARE married or WERE married?" "I'm working on ending it." "You're working on it." "Why don't I know about this?" "Great." "So you're working on it." "How do you mean?" "It's like some hobby?" "My lover works on leaving his wife during his free time." "That's beyond cute!" "So sweet!" "Seriously." "Shame on you, Spaniard!" "Everyone's staring, Firuzan." "Let them!" "You're a beast, you know?" "A savage." "You sly ass, Spaniard." " Firuzan?" " Don't come after me!" " Argh!" "A cat!" "Can, a cat!" " C'mon, Efsun." "It's gone." " I saw more damn cats than people here." "Argh, the cat!" "The cat, Can!" "Efsun!" "God!" " What did you do, dammit?" " What did I do?" " Why did you wind up the cat?" " I just went 'zzzt'." " Why?" " What else do you say to a cat?" "Hello?" "I went 'zzzt' to get the cat away from your wife." "Asshole, I'll..." "Don't come back again." "I say nothing to the clarinet, then it's a sax." "Beat it!" "So we can't make a few cents?" "For goodness sake." "SPANIARD" "Homes she sells are in court, intended turns out to be wed" "Oh my God!" "You are such a cutie." "Just look at you!" " Müjgan, give him here." " C'mon, over to Grandad." "Hey, Mr Cutie." "You are so cute." "Welcome, Father." "Son-in-law, welcome." "Come over." "Did you get here OK?" "No problem." "Come on over." "Hi, Dad." "How are you?" "Fine thanks." " Welcome, Mother." " Thanks, dear." " You think he's grown?" " Boy, has he grown!" "Boy, he's got so big." "Well, baby Berk means more expenses." "How's the music going, son-in-law?" " Fine, Father." "We manage." " Good." "Edremit?" "Did you just call the baby Berk?" "Yes." "We named my grandson Berk, remember?" "Come off it!" "We named him Bayram." "Berk was my late father's name." "It's very fitting." " Your father was Berk?" " Yes." "Berk Pasha." "He could fell a stallion in a single blow." "My grandad was a cattle herder." "But what a herdsman!" "One winter the roads were under snow." "Villagers had no food." "My grandad fed his herd to all the villagers." "He was a good man, Grandad Bayram." "I say Bayram's the best name for him." "Enough!" "Let his parents decide." "Hüseyin?" "We call him Bayram Berk." "But on my own I just use Bayram." "OK, it's settled." "Register him as Bayram Berk." "People can use what they like." "Bayram Berk Badem." "What the hell is that?" "Some cologne brand?" "Edremit!" "Enough!" "Please!" "Don't spoil the day." "Welcome, Kadriye." "Hello." "I came soon as I heard." "It's too bad." " What's up?" " Here, it's in the paper." "There's a story on Firuzan Abla." "She means that." "No, I don't mean that." "The supplement." "The supplement?" "Hand it over, let me see." "What's all this about?" "MAN RAIDS BAR FOR LOVER" "Give it here, let's see." "Son-in-law." "So business is good, huh?" "No let-up on the action." "Great!" "What the hell is this?" "Enough!" "Quiet." "They'll hear, Edremit." " Let them!" " Quiet." "It's your fault." "You let the girl marry a musician." "Now my grandson's future is in the hands of some floozy!" "What a joke!" "He says he'll play sax instead." "What if that breaks?" "We'll help buy him a pipe." "He'll carry on his antics till Bayram Berk's grown up." "Enough!" "It'll be OK, dear." "They're opening a restaurant." "His father and grandfather are sure to help out, Edremit." "No chance!" "They're crazy." "It's clear as hell." "They killed the camel to make sausage." "The clarinet's gone too." "So what now?" "Look here, Necla." "I have my feet on the ground." "It's high time we got that boy a proper job." "Good evening." "Father's right, Mother." "I trusted my clarinet, but I guess that was wrong." "And now there's the baby." "I'll do anything for my family." "It's for you to decide." "Bravo." "That's my son-in-law!" "Bravo." "Like I said, chief." "He'll start on contract." "Hopefully it'll work out and we can make him permanent." "Thanks, Mayor." "Hüseyin won't let you down." "Right, Hüseyin?" " Sure." " Bravo." "Treat everyone equally." "No favors, no turning a blind eye." " Geyikli must have justice." " Sure." "What's this trash here?" "It's not mine." "I didn't put it there." "Does it matter whose damn trash it is?" "What's the harm in picking it up?" "For God's sake!" "Unbelievable!" "Damn you!" "Clean the place up." "I wanna see no more trash." " Selam aleykum." " Aleykum selam." "Are they fresh?" "I make them myself." "Here." " How much are they?" " Nothing." "Enjoy." "Did you pay the charge to set up here?" "No." "Then you have to." "But I don't make 5 cents here!" "Someone complained about you." "Now get packing." "You can come back when I'm gone." " No." " No?" "No." "Why should I?" "It's my busiest time." "Don't give me your busiest time!" "What a bighead!" "Forget being nice." "Someone complained." "You wanna incriminate me my first day?" "You ate half my mussels." "What's left to pack up?" "That was your fault." "You egged me on." "You kept ramming them down my throat." "I'll throw the rest to the cats." "Pack up!" "You saw that, right?" "He scoffs my mussels, then kicks me out." "You're all witnesses." "God sees everything." "Say something, brothers in faith!" "I have 4 kids." "What are they gonna eat?" "Take the money." "Why are you bothering people?" " Hats!" "Fedoras!" " Hat-man, come here!" "Hey, this isn't enough!" "Don't run away!" "Come here!" "Come here!" "What's going on?" "Come here!" "Come here!" " What's going on?" " Come here!" "I'll chop off your head if I catch you!" "It's that jerk again." "Man, not you again!" "Welcome." "What are you up to?" "How's the holiday?" "Hello." "Sorry, we crashed." "All because of those hat-men." "They're parasites here." "Stay away from here." "See?" "It bothers people." "If you need anything, I'm here." "Come here." "Come here." "This is an announcement from Geyikli Town Hall." "The fish market is selling sardines for 7.5 lira a kilo." "For the public's attention." "Who cares about sardines?" "I'm dead." "This job isn't for me." "I'm a musician, dammit." "They're exploiting me." "Give me drums, anything but this job." "But it's my fault." "It's my stupid fault." "I can't be a bad person." "The devil says face the father-in-law." "Say, father-in-law!" "Come here, father-in-law." "Say, is it you who fed us up to now?" "Say, stop meddling." "What's the big deal?" "That's not Hüseyin." "Well, Hüseyin." "The past comes back..." "To bite you in the butt." "Sardines at the fish market." "As if I give a rat's ass." "Shame on you." "That's all I have to say." "Shame on you." "Let's call it first-day stress." "I was talking to myself." "Hear that, Necla?" "A certified crackpot." "Talks to himself." "So keep it to yourself!" "It's only human, love." "These things happen." "I'm sorry." "Keep your apology for the mayor." "Let's see if he accepts it." "You ruined my reputation!" "I'll get that." "Yes?" "Who are you?" "Hüseyin." "Firuzan Abla?" "What are you doing?" "I haven't even started yet." "Spaniard was better than Fatih, huh?" "No, it's suicide." "I'm serious." "It's over and I'm back where I was when it started." " It's total suicide." " But hang on, nothing's over yet." "How can you say that?" "Why didn't you tell me he was married?" "I would have if I'd known." "You think he just married on paper to be able to live there?" "That's how it works." "You say, this is my husband, let him come here." "And in Europe they give you residency." "Stop babbling like some embassy official." "I know all that." "Surprise, surprise, Spaniard is married in Spain." "Is that why you called him Spaniard?" "No way!" "He had a run-in with a sacrificial bull as a kid." "Sure." "His jersey caught on the bull's horns." "The bull tossed him about like a rag." "We took him for dead." "But Spaniard bounced around like a matador and saved himself." "He's been Spaniard ever since." "Just a nickname, no big deal." "My poor Spaniard!" "He's a softie." "It must've hurt so badly." "Sweetheart!" "My sweetheart!" " For goodness sake!" " Damn you, Spaniard." "How could you do this to me?" "Firuzan Abla!" "Enough, please!" "Seriously, I'm not happy you came." " Call him." "Say you're here." " No!" "I'm not calling him, Hüseyin!" "He should've told me everything." "We shared everything." "He should've told me." "Ah, I don't know." "I don't know." "Maybe it was a gamble and I knew I'd lose everything." "Hüseyin?" "Can I stay with you a while?" "Just a few days?" "The house is yours." "Stay as long as you like." " Thanks." " No one will bother you here." "You can clear your head." "My favorite big sister's here!" "Drink, c'mon!" "Enough tears." "Ah, you!" "He's just like Hüseyin." "Look at you, you're gorgeous." "What a cutie!" " Müjgan, let me hold him fora bit." " Sure, Firuzan Abla." "Come here." "Oh my God!" "He's the size of a chickpea!" "Ah, you're gorgeous!" " A miracle of life, isn't he, Firuzan?" " An absolute miracle." "Well, coming from a father like Hüseyin." " Edremit!" " Just kidding." "You cutie!" "You're so sweet." "A little child came home one day and found the house was empty" "Here, Müjgan." "Sorry, my nerves are shot." "We know." "It'll all pass." "Now let's talk about nicer things." "OK, I'd like to do a portrait of you." "God willing." "Good morning." "What is that, bumfluff?" "What's with the outfit?" "Müjgan, is this some police fantasy?" "So you haven't heard." "Hüseyin now works for the municipality." "No, you're kidding." "Come in!" "Good morning, Mayor." " I came to apologi..." " No, Hüseyin." "Sorry." " Official duties aren't for you." " But if you give me a chance..." "No, Hüseyin, sorry." "The chief won't be happy..." "But I've had too many complaints." "OK, return your uniform." "Good luck to you." "Take up your pipe again." "Thanks." "Hüseyin!" "Spaniard!" "What?" " Did you tell him I was here?" " No." " He guessed when I went quiet." " Bravo, bumfluff!" "Very smart." "That's how I'll keep my secrets from now on." "You discovered a great new game show." "Guess What Turkey." "Sell it to Acun." "But Abla, the man's dying of grief." "His eyes are all sunken." "Good!" "Let me ask him here to explain himself." "No way!" "No way!" "He must've told you, so you tell me." "I don't wanna see his face." "The woman's coming." "She's on her way." "She's happy to divorce." "He says he was gonna tell you." "You surprised him..." "By suddenly raising it, so he was made to look like a liar." "Like I said, their marriage was a formality." "All Spaniard wants is to introduce you to her." "What?" "Hang on, did I hear right?" "Yes." "The guesthouse is just there." "We'll go for coffee there tomorrow." "If all goes well..." "We'll ask Spaniard's wife for his hand, huh?" "Guess that's how it looks, huh?" "I'm the envoy." "To hell with your envoy thing!" "Are you out of your mind?" " Get out!" " Get out where?" "OK, I'll leave." "I'm going to Istanbul." " Got it?" " Don't be crazy!" "Firuzan." "Mercedes, I told Firuzan everything." "Plus..." "Ola!" "I specially wanted to see you because I'm furious." " Yes." "I'm straight up furious." " Mercedes." "But it's true!" "I'm furious at him for not telling you." " OK..." " But you just can't do that to a woman." "You put me through hell too." "My journey took 12 hours." "I had to fly economy." "Those seats are made for Armani butts." "My legs got crushed." "I had a child wailing and drooling down my neck." "His mom had sleep apnea." "Whenever the child went to sleep she'd wake him up with a loud snort..." "And he'd start crying." "Don't sleep if you have that problem, right?" "My late uncle had it." "He looked dead when he was asleep." "Like this." "Then he'd suddenly jerk awake with this huge snort." "Yes." " Aren't you talking nightmares?" " No, it's sleep apnea." "Yes." "Anyway." "He's dragged you all the way here for nothing." "Would it be different if he'd told me before?" "Would we be closer?" "Or would we have flown apart all the sooner?" "We can't know." "Spaniard dreamed of a break-up song and he's playing it now." "And I'm afraid we, well I..." "Am just listening." "C'mon now, sweetie." "Don't be unfair on yourself." "You found a good catch." "Ismail is lazy." "But he's good." "Sorry, when you say 'good'?" " Umm, where's the bathroom here?" " Shh, sit down!" "If he weren't lazy, he'd wouldn't be back in Turkey." "Our thing was just an agreement." "Lots of people do it." "Ismail wanted to live in Barcelona so I helped him." " You live in Barcelona?" " Si." " You go to the matches?" " No." "I apologize to you both." "Firuzan?" "I'm sorry." "Ismail?" "C'mon, take us to the place that does those vine-leaves you love." "Ah Firuzan, their vine-leaves!" "Tiny things, the size of my finger." "Vine-leaves?" "You like vine-leaves?" "Ha!" "Vine-leaves." "If you like vine-leaves..." "My gran makes the best vine-leaves around here." "Spaniard, take the ladies to our place for my gran's vine-leaves." "Let's see how you rate them." "I swear nothing beats them." "You can make friends." "And it's a way to welcome our guest." "Welcome, Mercedes." "Nice to meet you." "OK then." "Abla, my cell phone is on." "Enjoy the vine-leaves." "All right, OK." "All right." "We struck lucky, Sabri." "If we make the most of this nothing can stop Geyikli." " The ministry called." " What's up, Mayor?" "Great things!" "The olive festival is going international this year." "The Greek island Lesbos is pitching in." "Artists from Greece, the Lesbos mayor, ministers, priests, they're all coming." "An opportunity lands at our feet!" "But this time we need a big name at the festival." "But how do we do that, Mayor?" "We don't." "The organizer will handle it." "The man's on his way." "I found a top-notch organizer." "International." "Organizer." "How's that?" "We're in international waters." "They won't even find your body." "Shall I dump you?" "Look, Captain." "You're out of order." "God's my witness, a debt's a debt." "I'll pay it back, I swear." " My assistant can't swim." " Zip it!" " When are you gonna pay?" " In a week." "Give me a week." "You promised all month." "What's different now?" "Work." "I got work, Captain." "From umm, from Geyikli." "Please, let us go!" "Thanks." "Thanks." "You screw the captain, huh?" "We'll see who screws who." "You have a week." "Find the money and bring it." "He's staying." "Me?" "Collateral." "Here come the blue fish." " Here you go." " They smell delicious." " Mercedes?" " Huh?" "Pardon me asking, but is Mercedes your original name or a nickname?" "My real name's Melahat, but my friends in Spain use Mercedes." "Halil Dede, it's a nickname." "Mercedes is really a Spanish name." "It's also a car brand." " Sorry?" " Like a Murat 124, Dede." "Huh." "Well I'll be damned!" "Mercedes dear, you sure like your food." " Aren't you afraid of gaining weight?" " No, sweetie." "Diets are a new fashion." "Women starve themselves in the name of beauty." "They go blonde, get fake teeth and all end up looking the same." "But it's true." "I have my own teeth, my original hair and get on with enjoying life." "Great." "Come in." "Good day to you." "I brought back my uniform, Mayor." "But maybe we could have a word?" " Wait over there." " OK." "Mr. Halit, we can't pay this kind of money." "Mr. Çetin, you get what you pay for." "I'm bringing an entire team." "We'll cover the town in posters." "Let it be a great event." "That's always my aim." "God willing, this will be my 450th event." "I speak from experience." "Don't get me wrong, Mayor, but it isn't easy being Halit Akan." "Far from it." "Starting out, I had one slogan." "And that was..." "No town will go without entertainment." "Our towns will be revived." "Who's this Popstar Ceren?" "Your voice hits the walls" "I am scorched by scars" "One morning his bullet hits me Hits and hurls me into the air" "Her most popular song." "Remember?" "No, I don't, you see?" "She's down as 3000 lira." "Glory be!" "Çetin Abi, the guys you know start from 15,000." "Sorry, I was familiar using 'Abi'." "If it bothers you..." "No, go ahead." "Yes." "Çetin Abi, those are the prices." "Six instruments, plus artists." "Plus fixtures included." "We also have a core team of dancers from Fire of Anatolia." "Add them on and our festival will be a true festival." "Come in!" "Ha!" "And here's Mr. Can, our theatre director." "You'll know him from television." "Come in, Can Hodja." "Have a seat." "Hello, Mayor." " Welcome." " Thank you." "So you're the theatre man?" "Yes." "I'll be doing it with Troy." "OK, decision time, Çetin Abi." "Oof, 10,000, 15,000." "Add the play and the Greeks." "We're talking 30,000." "What should I do?" "None of it." "Don't do any of it." "I'll bring Firuzan to that festival." "I'll get an awesome band together." "I'll do it for half the money." "Who are you, friend?" "Çetin Abi?" "Hüseyin." "No, well." "Firuzan is one of our singers too." "But numbers?" "The guy's out to lunch." "You can't do it for less than 20 or 30." "You can." "I'll get Firuzan, Mayor." "On one condition:" "Get me a clarinet." "I'll do it." "20, 30, 40." "What kind of money is that?" "It's all cock and bull." "Yes." "This core group, that band, posters all over town." "We're a town of 1500." "Posters are a waste of money." "We can shout." "Everyone will hear." "Who needs posters?" "You did what?" " I fixed you a job." " Are you my manager?" "I'm in a living hell here and you do that without asking." "My loss is your gain, huh?" "C'mon, Firuzan Abla." "It'll be a morale boost." "Artists come to themselves on stage." "Plus I'll get a clarinet." "Ha, so it's about that, bumfluff." " You fix me work to wangle a clarinet." " Not exactly." "Look, I'm all fireworks inside." "Forget festivals." "Go buy a clarinet and I'll pay." "Don't be like that." "I could never take money from you." " But you sell me." " God forbid!" "How could you?" "That was so beneath you!" "Look, Firuzan Abla." "Let these poor folk here see you sing live." "They're all crazy for you." "You went on TV and sang "Beans"." "Everyone here was in tears." "We're proud of you." "You're Firuzan of Çanakkale to us." "You became a symbol here." "And there are Greeks coming." "The press will be here." "It's a chance to snap out of it." "Geyikli is in love with you." "Well, yes." "When the song became a hit they became fans, I guess." "You bet they did." "I don't know, Hüseyin." "There's make-up, costumes, the band..." " Don't drag me into work mode now." " I'll handle it all." "There's money too." "How much?" "A small amount." "So, all the best to us." "All the best to you." "I love it." "Look at Daddy." "Daddy's making music, look." "Son-in-law." "You got your clarinet." "Landed on your feet again, huh?" " Please, this way." " After you." "May God keep us happy!" "Amen." "Ms. Firuzan." "I'd like to thank you for your generous gesture..." "In front of all our friends and guests." "Don't mention it, Mr. Mayor." "It's nothing." "Being the Jennifer Lopez of Geyikli I'll eat nuts since there's no money." "I got it, I got the rhyme." "How's that?" "Hüseyin?" "C'mon then." "All the best to the restaurant and our festival." "We say welcome to our restaurant and welcome to Firuzan and Mercedes." "C'mon then." "Help yourselves!" "Hey, what's that?" "It looks great." "Bravo!" "Hmm, muy bien." "Ha, bien." "See?" "She "biens" this too." "You're amazing, Mercedes." "Everything's bienvenu with you." " Firuzan, please." " What?" "She doesn't get it anyway." "Bon appétit, Mayor." " My respects, Ms. Firuzan." " Hi." "Welcome, Halit." "Ms. Firuzan, maybe you remember." "We were both at the Karaburun festival." "Oh, really?" "Maybe, but I can't place you." "Sorry." "The team's coming tomorrow." " As discussed." " How come he knows you?" " But the Greeks are acting up." " He's lying." "They now say we should pay board and lodging." "You know our budget." "It means extra money." "A friend of mine has a camp hotel in Gürpınar." "I could put the team there for 150 lira per person." " But then food would be extra." " No chance!" "No!" "We're already over-budget." "And food on top?" "Mayor?" "Irfan Abi has that hotel in Odunluk." "Let's put the guests there." "Guests are king." "And we'd keep the money." "Bravo, Hüseyin!" "Good thinking." " Irfan's one of us." " Yes." "Everyone should do their bit." "We must make sacrifices for our town." "Ms. Firuzan is doing her bit, so we'll be catering sponsors." "What?" "Great!" "The restaurant's all set, the beds are ready." "All we need now is the guests!" "Don't let it get cold now." "Right." "Spaniard, carve for 12 people." "Oof, Ali Rıza." "What gave you this sponsorship idea?" "How are we gonna feed so many people?" "A gesture was called for, Halit Abi." "There's plenty of fish here, right?" "Serve fish and be done with it." "Good idea." "I'm a crack fisherman." "With the harpoon I had in my youth I kept the whole village fed." "Why the forest if we're going fishing?" "Just follow me, Ali Rıza!" "Roll up your trousers!" "If there's fish to catch I'll catch them." "Good old Edremit." "Still made of steel." "We can't do that, it's a sin." "We aren't selling the fish." "What are the guests gonna eat?" "Think of that next time you offer to be sponsor." "Scoop the fish with that net when they come to the surface." "OK, in the name of God!" "What's that?" "A dolphin?" "Run, Ali Rıza!" "Run!" "You got off lightly." "Dad!" "Can you hear me now?" " Only just." " Only just." "It's OK, Müjgan." "There's no permanent damage." "Well, who were these guys with the dynamite?" "Father!" "Did you see who it was?" "Did you see them?" "Yes." "From up in the air." "There were two of them." "One fat, one short." "But their faces escape me." "One was short." "Who on earth were they?" "Edremit." "Good, isn't it?" "Very good." "I made it from camel hide." "Screw my hands, my feet and all 5 fingers!" "Lose in love, lose at games." "Talk about luck." "Hüseyin, you'll wake the baby." "I got him used to the clarinet." "The sound put him right to sleep." "He'll be a clarinetist." "Come here." "Forget pacifiers, he wants a clarinet." "I missed you." "So did I." "We never see each other." "No." "What are you doing, Hüseyin?" "In front of the baby?" "With people outside?" "Behave!" "I need some air." "Go on then." "If he had no shame..." "C'mon, baby." " My God, I got the joker!" " The joker?" "Si, dear." "Si!" "This hand calls fora song." "Here!" "Single or double, the joker's mine And you're in trouble" "Oh no!" "Morning, Irfan Abi." "Morning, Hüseyin." "Morning, Mayor." "Well, Irfan, the guests arrive today." "Today?" "How many?" "Have you been drinking?" "No." "I told you 10 people were coming." "And a priest." "Wasn't that next week?" "OK, Mayor." "I'll get onto that guesthouse." "We have folk dancers too." "I hope they have room." "Don't get onto anything." "Let's save the money." "Mayor, we'll share the other guests among us." "The priest can stay with me." "Is that them there?" "Look at the flags." "Right, it's them." "You're staying with us." "You're staying with us." "12TH INTERNATIONAL GEYİKLİ CULTURE OLIVE FESTIVAL" "What's that smell, Helena?" "And that music?" "What's that whiff of seduction in the air?" "Me, Pan." "Nature's shepherd." "Hear my flute, mortal." "Breathe my smell." "Is your wish for an ordinary life or a life of love?" "I must die for love if that's my fate." "I accept the finest death from Hades." "Hades will show you the finest death!" "Kill us here and relax." "We learnt the play backwards baking out here." "Artists are waiting and you laze in the shade like buffalo." "Cut, cut!" "What's this bull about artists?" "Aren't we artists?" " Failed policeman!" " What did you say?" "Hang on, let me take over here." "You can't just look down on us." "We're artists too." "Besides, the public is judge." "You can't act like we don't exist." "We've been waiting hours for our slot." "I have sunstroke." "You know, in that TV series when your cousin killed your wife..." "I cried for days on end." "You just lost a fan, Mister." "God!" "Can, what's going on?" "What kind of place is this?" "Drop the hand gestures!" "You're talking to an artist." "This place was fine when you gorged on calamari, huh?" "Hang on, wait." "Just let it go, OK?" "Ms. Firuzan, look." "We're all in the same boat." "Besides..." "I'm a fan of yours too." "Thanks." "Even if you aren't a fan, that's the right approach." "No really, I'm crazy about you." "Thank you." "I'm all embarrassed now." "Yes, like you said, I'm in the boat too." "Yes." "So I say let's be critical, let's help each other." " So can I make a criticism?" " Sure, go ahead." "Honey, what was your last line?" "Something about love?" " I must die for love if that's my fate." " Ha, that's it." "Exactly." "Sezen Aksu has that song Die for Love." "Suppose I came on singing that?" "Just like that, you know?" "It would be a nice touch." "My entrance would be a nice surprise." "This is my inner voice speaking." "As you well know, the inner voice is important on stage." "That's why I'm speaking up." "It'll be umm, great." "Sorry, will your series continue next year?" "OK, this is for the theater guys and this for the Greeks." "Sign here." "Mr. Halit." "Thank you." "Çetin Abi, you're sure about Firuzan, huh?" "Personally, I'd rule out Hüseyin." "Experience tells me there'll be grief." "It's done, so let's hope for the best." "Anyway we like him." "What the hell is this?" "The town key." "I said a symbolic key." "You made an anchor." "Symbolic, my ass!" "It's for the minister." "If he drops it his foot's broken." "Hüseyin Abi." "Müjgan Abla wants you." "OK." "Make a smaller one." "Go!" "I'm gonna lose it." "Does no one in Geyikli get what I say?" "I asked for traditional costumes." "How can I dress the band in these?" "This is fabric for grannies." "All flash and fancy." "I mean, please!" "Make them yourself then." "I haven't slept for24 hours." "You're so rude!" "He's so rude." "Where did you find him?" "But it's true!" "Hüseyin." "Hüseyin..." "Finishing these costumes has done us in." "Just go with it this time, honey." "Look, Mersedes is tired out." "She's crazy!" "Sorry, Abla." "I'm stressed out." "As the day gets closer I get more uptight." "They're good actually." "They can wear them." "Me too." " Mum, where's Bayram Berk?" " Out with Firuzan Abla." "How's it going, Mr. Bayram?" "You like it here?" "Shall we sit at that table?" "C'mon, let's sit down." "You went quiet." "Does that mean you like it?" "Where have we come, huh?" "Where are we?" "Where have we come, huh?" "Did we come for a walk?" "Are we gonna have coffee, huh?" "My little chickpea!" "Look at that cute face." "Eyüp, you'll have to excuse me." "I have family to worry about." "To hell with you all." "I've had it." "Eyüp?" "What's up?" "No sound from you." "No, c'mon." "I have a bit with me anyway." "It's 2 days till the festival starts." "I'll get paid right after wards." "And I'll bring it to you." "Here you go." " How much are you getting?" " Enough to cover it." "I'll pay the debt, don't worry." "I'm taking your car too." "Why?" "Ever heard of the interest rate lobby?" "Yes." "That's us." " We're finished." " Don't give me that." "Wait, I'm thinking." "Where did that Hüseyin come from?" "If he hadn't butted in, we'd be fine." "So what do we do?" "Kidnap him to get him out the way?" "Let's scoot." "If the captain finds out the money is hot air, we're toast." " Help!" " A man's drowning!" "Save me!" "Save me!" "He fell off the boat." "He's drowning." "Ah, yes." "Did someone jump?" "Is someone saving him?" "My gosh, he jumped." "One of you help." "We'll kidnap someone, but not Hüseyin." " What are you talking about?" " C'mon." "Stop!" "What are you doing?" "This is a Town Hall announcement." "Local resident Hüseyin Badem's baby..." "Has disappeared from the quayside in his stroller." "If you see the baby, kindly report to the Town Hall or gendarmerie." "Bayram!" "They kidnapped my son." "They kidnapped my baby." "Firuzan Abla, please say who kidnapped my baby." "Who would do it?" "Why?" "Müjgan, please don't cry." "They'll find our baby." "When you cry I feel terrible." "Calm down, they'll find him." "Right now I wanna die." "There's a curse on Geyikli." "Every visit something happens." "Shut up!" "Just shut up!" "We're all torn up and you're all site reports!" "Geyikli, whatever, enough!" "Argh, enough!" "Hüseyin!" "Calm down." "We aren't sure but we think the baby was kidnapped." "They dumped the stroller." "Hey!" "Let the commander speak." "Don't cry, Müjgan." "We'll find whoever did it." "Hüseyin, keep an eye on your phone." "If they call for a ransom, contact us." "He's so cute." "Can't we keep him?" "Are you crazy?" "C'mon, give him here." "No, don't touch." "He's sleepy." "He'll only have a meltdown." "Hey there!" "Hey there!" "See what you do?" "Idiot." "I'd cry too if it was me." " C'mon, get him quiet if you can." " Sure." "What's the big deal?" "He won't stop crying." "We got the baby a ton of pacifiers." "Pacifiers are supposed to work!" "I tell you, my nerves are shot." "Here, tum on this radio." "Drown out that crying." "I'm a nervous wreck." "Tum it off." "Turn it on again." "He got the baby into music." "Poor thing." "He thinks his dad's here." "We should give him back, it's a sin." "He's not some pigeon we can just give back." "Cut the crap." "2 days." "For2 days we'll, you know." "Have the prince to stay." "Then we'll take him back." "We're already screwed." "Don't make me feel guilty." "Good boy, junior, good boy." "OK, say bye-bye to Halit Abi." "Say bye-bye." "Get back inside." "Morning." "Morning." "When's his mom coming?" "You must be tired out." "She's out of hospital tomorrow." "I'll go pick her up." " That's great." " Thanks." "Take it easy there." "They'll be glad of the milk." " How come?" " Mom had an accident." "He's babysitting." " You don't say." " Sure." "What if they sold him to a beggar?" "Be positive, Müjgan." "C'mon, precious." "I promise I'll find our baby." "Whoever stole him, I swear I'll dismember them..." "And stick their parts at every junction." "It's all my fault." "With all those checkpoints why can't the gendarmes find them?" "Maybe they're somewhere round here." "Come with me, Hüseyin." " Come where?" " Move." " Where are you going?" " I'm curious." " Sema, look after Müjgan." " OK." "Come in." "Sorry about the news." "I guess the festival's canceled." "How can we cancel with the Greeks here and the minister coming?" "And we spent all that money." "So?" "I don't suppose Firuzan will do her thing." "No." "Can we find someone else?" "Ebru Kartepe." "The only free artist I know." "What do we pay her?" " 20,000, end of story." " OK." "Welcome, Hüseyin." "I'm so sorry." " Any news?" " No." "Thanks, though." "Abla, why are we here?" "Are there any other pharmacies around here, my friend?" "Not in Geyikli." "Why?" "I'm not mistaken, am I?" "No, it's not that." "Did anyone buy diapers, any baby stuff from you in the last 24 hours?" "Yes." "But why are you asking?" "I don't understand." "C'mon, answer." "A ton of vacationers pass through, many of them with kids." "Who knows what we sold since yesterday?" "OK, but anyone unusual, anyone nervous?" " Someone like that..." " Ha." "The guy yesterday." "Remember he kept asking how to mix the baby food?" "Who was that, Kasım?" "No one we know, Hüseyin." "A man came as we were closing." "He wanted two of everything." "He even had us pick a pacifier." "He was in a sweat." "We had to laugh to ourselves." " OK, what was he like?" " Nervous." "What did he look like?" "Receding hairline." "Prominent temples." "He'll be bald in a year or so." "My age." "No way!" "You're older." "Don't talk crap in front of the lady!" "We're trying to help here." "OK, let's say your age, more or less." "More, not less." "OK, did this man have a beard?" "No." "A moustache." "He was a bit rounder than me." " No, you're fatter." " Why are you giving me a hard time?" " Enough!" " Exactly, enough!" "Quiet, andropausal boys!" "Would you recognize him if you saw him?" "Yes." "We'd recognize him, Ms. Firuzan." "OK, great." "We'll get a robot picture done." "Ha, bravo." "What's a robot picture?" "You know." "When they do a sketch." "Of the suspect." "The police hang them up in a line." "Robot police." "Police artists." "You think this is New York?" "You won't find a police artist!" "We have 2 policemen, both traffic police." "If anyone has one it's the gendarmes." "Let's ask them." "C'mon, Asım Abi." "Kasım." "OK." "Close the shop." " Are they coming too?" " Who else is there as witness?" "The picture was your idea." " OK." " C'mon, shut up shop." "How's this?" "It's like him." "He was maybe a bit rounder." "OK." "You come with me." "We reckon Kiremitoba Village is the scene of the kidnapping." "Please have the nearest units transferred to the crime scene." "Roger." "Units are being directed to investigate." "OK, Hüseyin." "We'll be in touch." "You can go." "Thanks, commander." "Thanks." "Abla, you heard what the two-way said?" "A kidnapping, an operation." "Kiremitoba Village." "That's right here." "I've been to 500 weddings there." "Let's take a look." " Maybe a girl was kidnapped." " He turned off the two-way right away." "I say they're about to find Bayram." "They're keeping quiet so we don't get worked up." "Nice thinking, Mercedes Abla." "Let's hope so." "I keep thinking about his tiny feet." "Abla, let's go." "It's a hope." "C'mon, then." "Let's hope." "Dear God, let's hope." " You haven't seen anyone, huh?" " No." "Thanks." "Anything new?" "No." "Let's go back then." "Ha!" "Why didn't I think of it?" "What's up?" "There's a milkman around here, he's called Rasim." "He knows everything." "Where is this Rasim?" "Real close." "We tum up there." "See there?" " Up there?" " Right, look there." " Go up there." " You mean go straight?" "Go left by the pear tree, but the road's rough." "Slowly now." "We'll leave the car here." "Stop." "Stop here." "We'll walk the rest." "How come?" "What about the car?" "We can't go down there in this car." "We'd wreck the undercarriage." "His place is on the path down there." "We shoot downhill." "C'mon." "Can I stay in the car?" "Your choice." " Which way?" "Down here?" " Right, this way." "Hüseyin!" "Hüseyin!" "Hüseyin, Firuzan!" "Wait for me!" "Hüseyin, Firuzan, wait for me!" "You disappeared so fast!" "A snake, a snake!" "Help, a snake!" "A snake, a snake!" "Mercedes!" "Mercedes, are you OK?" "There was a huge snake." "But snakes here don't do anything." "They aren't poisonous." "You mangled yourself for nothing." "Drop it, will you!" "The woman was scared." "I think I broke my leg." "What do we do?" "C'mon, we'll lift her." "We can't lift her." "Look at you, fatso." "Don't be so rude." "Your ass would make 3 grown men." "What kind of talk is that?" "Shame on you, Mercedes." "An insult like that from a woman of Europe!" "Knock it off!" "You know what we'll do?" "Go ask Rasim for help." "C'mon." "No!" "Don't go anywhere." "Don't leave me." "I'm scared to death." "What do we do?" "What can we?" "She's scared." "Wait, I got it." "Wait." "Slow down, there's rocks." "You'll tip her over." "Zip it!" "Don't get me started." "I'm an idiot for ever trusting you." "How many times is this?" "Stop wailing, Mercedes." "It's all your fault." "The gendarmes found the baby and all that crap." "Shame on you, Firuzan!" "How could you!" "Why are you blaming the woman?" "Bless you, Mercedes." "You gave me hope." "Screw your hope." "Look at you both!" "Zagor and Chico." "God help me!" " Careful of the thorns!" " Oh God, thorns!" "We're here." "Open the gate." "Open the gate." "For goodness sake, Abla." " The thorns are pricking me!" " Stop moaning." "Who are they?" "You said no one was coming." " Quick, I can't hold her much longer." " Coming." " How do we lift her?" " How do I know?" " Let's tip her out." " Where?" "Anywhere is fine." "She was OK rolling down the hill." " Careful!" " Here we go." "Watch out." "Are you OK?" "Rasim Abi." "Rasim Abi!" "Rasim Abi!" "Rasim Abi!" "He's not answering." "Why isn't he answering?" "Here, drink this." "He's deaf and dumb, but he's a great marksman." "You guys, stop twitching." "Sit still!" "Hüseyin!" "What are you doing here?" "They stole my baby." "I was gonna ask if you heard anything, if you saw any crooked types." "What else is he gonna see in this crooked damn field?" " What's going on?" "Who are they?" " They're butchering my animals." " You called a butcher?" " They just turned up." "They're thieves." "I heard they hung out in Foça, but now they're here too." "They butcher them, load them into vans and move on." "So that's where "meat market" comes from!" "No time to market your IQ, sweetie." "We're dead meat here." "So that's what they meant on the two-way." "Remember the kidnapping thing?" "I thought they meant Bayram Berk." "But they meant goat-napping." "Oof!" " So the gendarmes could come any time." " Hopefully before we're sausage-meat!" "My animals are dying!" "My sheep and goats!" "What are you talking about?" "You can get more animals." "We're about to die here." "Maniac!" "Maniac." "Don't cry!" "My son's gone and you think about your animals." "What kind of guy are you?" "A grown man crying." "It's our turn now." "Mr. Butcher." "Blondie." "Kıvanç Tatlıtuğ." "Come sit beside me, salami man." "What do you want?" "What do YOU want?" "Are you crazy?" "We came here for a good time." "And you're just interested in lamb." "Look." "You're missing prime cuts here, sugar." "Leave the cold cuts." "Come try the hot stuff." "Rasim." "Why didn't you say?" "Who are these guys?" "They're here for me." "He brings them." "You know, being single." " You sell them, huh?" " Right." "I sell them." "Lo and behold!" "Well, we would." "But we can't with our hands tied." "Look at you, all over a sheep." "You could be enjoying the sweetest company here." "But no." "It's silence of the lambs." "What do you sell them for?" "They're both different." " What are you thinking?" " To butcher the lot of you." "Hey, come here." "You're tired." "I'll wipe away your sweat." "You come here, blondie." "C'mon." "Let me untie you." "I'll treat myself to a hot snack." "Good for you." "You're smart." "Mr. Brain-box." "Take this!" " Quick, grab him." " Don't hit my head." "Bash his head with something." " Run." "Run!" " Move it!" "Run." "To the van, quick." "Firuzan Abla." "Quick!" "To the van." "C'mon." " Run." "Keep going." " Open the door." "Come here!" "Hey!" "Climb in." "Move!" "Get in the truck before the gendarmes come!" "Thanks, Firuzan." "You saved our lives." "Dying would've been fine by me." "Müjgan will be worried." "They took our phones." "What do we do?" "There's a phone there, look." "Use that." "Thanks." "What do I tell Müjgan?" "We didn't find Bayram?" "We almost died?" " Better not to call." " Wait." "I just remembered." "You know Taşkapı Camping?" "In Kumburun?" "I took milk there this morning." "You know the half-wit owner." "He said the guys would be pleased as punch." "He said they're babysitting the baby." "The mom had an accident." "He said he laughs at them." "Why?" "The mom had an accident!" "Maniac!" "The baby stops crying when he hears music." " Otherwise he keeps everyone up." " That's my baby!" "That's Bayram!" "I got him into music." "I played him clarinet." "He misses the sound." "We found him, I know it!" "I told you he'd find him." "Go right to Kumburun!" "Quick!" "Let's hope." "Müjgan, put Dad on!" "Put Dad on." "Can't you find any music?" "Tum that thing on." "There's nothing on." "C'mon, you had a sleep, you had food." "C'mon." "Oh my God!" "What's up?" "We're in holy shit." "Leave the baby." "Run!" "Scram!" "Leave the baby!" "Quick, they're here!" "Run!" "Dad, stop!" "It may not be them." " The baby!" "Put that gun away." " Shut up!" " Yes?" " Where's my grandson?" " There's a baby in there but..." " Move!" "I can hear him, Mum." "Bayram!" "Bayram!" "Bayram!" "They found him." "Run for the car." "Where are they?" "Who stole him?" "There they are!" "Come here!" "Get them!" "Don't run away." "Come here." "Hey, come here!" "Come here!" "Hey, come here!" "What did you want with my baby!" "Don't run away!" "What kind of guy are you!" "Halit?" "It's Halit!" "Come here!" "Start the engine." "They're coming." "Isn't it you, Halit?" "It's you!" "What did you want from us?" "Come here!" "Come here!" "Don't run away!" "Don't run away." "Cramp!" "I got cramp." "Hüseyin!" "I'm here, Hüseyin." "Don't hold my neck." "Hold on to me." "Damn your heroics, Hüseyin!" "You'll drown the woman!" "Let's be glad it's all over." "Thank goodness!" "Geyikli never saw such a snake in the grass." "No one steals here!" "He even swiped our Greek friends' money." "But thanks to the Reverend here, our artists said they'd still perform." "It's nothing, Mayor." "We found the baby, huh?" "What's the story, commander?" "Did you catch the rogues?" "Our boats are looking, chief." "No sign of land either." "I guess this time we..." "Man, you're such a pessimist!" " While there's life there's hope." " You never stop!" "Look, a boat!" "A boat's coming!" "A boat's coming!" "Boat!" "Boat!" "We're here, boat!" "Boat!" "Boat!" "It's coming right at us." " The captain!" " The captain?" "Halit Abi!" "All right, I see." "Oof, the minister's on his way." "Ms. Firuzan, after all your trials we obviously can't ask you to perform." "But thanks all the same." "Geyikli loves you." "Thanks." "Hello there." "Mayor, I'm afraid my theater crew have left." " What?" " They went back to Istanbul." "The crook swiped their money too." "And he deceived me." "The guys said no deal." "I couldn't stop them." "Oh no!" "Hold on, Mayor." "A job started must be finished." "Count me in." "Thanks, you're wonderful." "I'd say the same, but I have no actors." "WELCOME TO THE 12TH INTERNATIONAL GEYİKLİ CULTURE OLIVE FESTIVAL" "What's that smell, Helena?" "And that music?" "What's that whiff of seduction in the air?" "Me, Pan." "Nature's shepherd." "Hear my flute..." "Breathe my smell." "Is your wish for an ordinary life or for love?" "My only wish is for Helena, Mighty Pan!" "Even if the price is heavy." "The fire inside me bums for Paris." "That fire is the fire of Hades." "The price is very heavy, Paris." "Troy's fate is written in blood." "Are you ready to pay Hades that price?" "I'm ready to do anything for love." "Pitiful mortals, let's ask Mighty Zeus then." "Will you allow Pan..." "To play the flute of love in Troy, Mighty Zeus?" "Zeus?" "I allow anyone to die for love." " But plant an olive on Mt Olympos." " What?" "An olive?" "They ate the fruit of forbidden love." "Let Trojans make ready for war." "What's that?" "I beg you, Hera." "If Troy is to die for our love..." "Stop this destruction." "I'll give up on Paris..." " Hüseyin, when's this play ending?" " Even if stabbed by Heracles' sword." "Quiet!" "Long live Troy!" "Long live Troy!" "Firuzan!" "Firuzan!" "Firuzan!" "Thank you so much." "Dear people of Geyikli, I missed you so much." " Did you miss me too?" " Yes!" " Did you like the play?" " Yes!" "Yes, yes." "Thanks." "Thanks to our director, Can Hodja." "We did our best to give you a play from Ancient Greece." "Thank you very much." "And of course my very dear friend who introduced me to you..." "The amazing Hüseyin Badem!" "Let's hear it for him." "Thank you so much." "Hüseyin Müjgan and baby, huge kisses to you all." "Good luck to you all." "OK, all together now let's sing..." ""C'mon, love, love"!" "Yorgo!" "Let's hear it for Yorgo!" "Hüseyin Badem!" "Spaniard!" "Firuzan, I love you." "Marry me." "Spaniard." "Firuzan." "Will you marry me?" "Bravo, Spaniard!" "Abla." "C'mon, say yes." " Say yes." " Say yes!" "Say yes!" " Yes!" " Bravo!" "Bravo!" "I don't believe it." "I love you, Müjgan." "I love you too, musician." "Oh no." "Give me the clarinet." "Quick." "Wait." "Here." "C'mon, play." "OK." "He's asleep."

"There is something missing from our world." "The amazing animals that time has left behind." "But what if we could bring them back?" "What if extinction didn't have to be for ever?" "We're going back in time on a safari with a difference as wildlife adventurer Nigel Marven plunges into prehistory to rescue creatures on the brink of extinction." "His plan is to bring them back to the safety of the present and give them a second chance." "This time he 's going back to prehistoric South America in search of Giant Killer Birds and ferocious Sabre Tooth Cats." "Welcome to the ultimate wildlife sanctuary." "Welcome to Prehistoric Park." "Prehistoric Park is a huge reserve with a wide range of habitats to house the animals that Nigel brings back." "After several successful rescue missions, the Park is filling up nicely with creatures not seen for millions of years." "Most of them have adjusted to their new environment, though a few have had some... teething problems." "At least the Park's newest residents, a herd of giant Titanosaurs, seem to be settling in well... for the moment." "Now Nigel's got cats on his mind." "Not your household tabby variety, but big ones like this cheetah." "Cats are some of nature 's most efficient killers, but even they need protecting and that's got Nigel thinking about what animals to bring back next." "The sad thing is the populations of cheetahs are minuscule in comparison to the past." "Their habitats have been destroyed and it's important to build up breeding populations in captivity." "But in the past, there were 30 species of big cats and I would love to have one or two species for Prehistoric Park." "Maybe we can even breed an extinct cat." "Despite such a huge selection of big cats, it doesn 't take Nigel long to narrow down his choices." "This is a Giant Cheetah, the same size and weight as a lion." "Imagine seeing that running at full pelt!" "And this, the Thylacoleo, a Marsupial Lion, a lion with a pouch, the babies actually grew in the pouch." "And it was a brilliant climber." "It climbed in the trees, and when prey walked underneath, it would leap down and ambush them." "But for me, there's one choice." "The cat I must save from extinction is the most famous prehistoric cat of all." "This has been my prized possession since I was a little kid." "It's the skull of a Sabre Tooth Cat, the most famous extinct cat." "Those teeth are awe-inspiring." "Palaeontologists are pretty certain how Sabre Tooths used them." "They got onto their prey's throat and sliced through the major blood vessels and crushed the windpipe in one bite." "That meant the prey couldn't attack back, couldn't injure them." "This is a really ingenious killing technique." "To find a living Sabre Tooth Cat," "Nigel needs to go back to a very different world." "A million years ago," "Sabre Tooths were the top predators in North America." "As they spread down to South America, they were fast taking over from one of the strangest predators the world has ever known, a ten-foot-tall Killer Bird." "Have a look at this." "Look at this." "A Phorusrhacid, a group of flesh-eating birds named Terror Birds." "This is a life-size representation." "It dwarfs me and if I can go back a million years," "I may be able to get Sabre Tooth Cats and one or two of these." "And imagine having this at Prehistoric Park!" "Even for bird-lover Nigel, catching the ten-foot Terror Bird could be a very tall order." "But when Nigel has a mind to do something, nothing will stop him." "An outlook shared by the Park's largest residents, the Titanosaurs." "No fence will hold a hungry Titanosaur in search of his next meal." "Control Room, come in, Control Room!" "I'm not gonna get that fixed in a hurry." "I'm just gonna have to let them roam about the Park for a bit." "They mustn't get too close to the main gate which is where they're heading!" "I've got to go." "Sorry!" "Oblivious to the Titanosaur break-out, Nigel's getting ready to go." "Bob, do you read?" "Over." "Come in, Bob." "What is it now, Nigel?" "As well as the Sabre Tooths, I'm bringing back something more." "'We need a big bird cage.'" "I've got a serious problem here." "The Titanosaurs are heading for the park gate." "I'll turn them round." "It's a big bird." "It stands ten feet, over three metres tall." "Nigel, I can hardly hear you." " 'l said I need a big bird cage.'" " A bird cage, right, right." "A ten-foot bird, it stands ten feet tall." "We need a cage for it." "There's no need for that!" "Are you getting this, Bob?" "I hope he got that" "It seems not all modern plants agree with the Titanosaurs' prehistoric stomachs." "As they find some more tasty tree tops to chew on," "Nigel finally discovers what's happened." "Hello!" "What are you doing?" "Hello there!" "What are you doing out?" "(Loud grunt)" "Hey!" "Obviously, Bob's enclosure didn't hold the Titanosaurs." " Come back, you great lummox!" " He seems to be coping, though." "Nigel's about to leave on his mission to save South America's top prehistoric predators - the Sabre Tooth Cat and the Giant Terror Bird." "Park-Keeper Bob 's taken one of Nigel's requests for equipment rather too literally!" "Hello, N igel!" "Got that bird cage for you." "What's that?" "The bird I'm going for, you wouldn't fit one of its eggs in that." "It's ten feet, three metres tall." "It towers above me." "It can't fly, so it doesn't need a top." "All right, I'll build a pen for it." "As quick as possible...because I'm going." " All right, Nigel, have a good trip." " OK, thanks." "By going back one million years, he will arrive at a time when Sabre Tooth Cats are in their prime, but the Terror Birds are on their last legs." "What other creatures will he run into as he enters this extraordinary time in South America 's distant past?" "Don't forget me present!" "Aagh!" "Wow!" "I've arrived slap-bang in the middle of a herd of these big animals!" "(Bellows loudly)" "Colliding with one of those would really spoil your weekend!" "I've seen these before, but I can't remember what they're called." "But they are so strange!" "Really big things." "They are so peculiar." "Let's follow them and see what they're up to." "South America has been cut off from the rest of the world for 30 million years." "In this time, all sorts of huge, outlandish creatures have been able to evolve." "Animals not found anywhere else on the planet." "I think I know what these are." "I'm pretty sure these are T oxodon." "Charles Darwin found their fossils when he came to South America in the 1 800s." "He was the greatest naturalist that's ever lived." "I've got his journal here." "What did he say about them?" "He never saw them alive like this, of course." "He just found the fossil skull and he says," ""Toxodon, perhaps one of the strangest animals ever discovered." ""Judging from the position of its eyes, ears and nostrils," ""it was probably aquatic like Dugong and Manatee."" "But I think...these are much more like hippopotamuses." "There's one sniffing there, scenting the air." "I think we'd better move out before they notice us." "My first herd of Toxodon." "They really remind me of hippos." "They could be dangerous like hippos, the most dangerous animals in Africa." "If you get between a hippopotamus and the water, they charge." "But I've got to have one last look." "They are superb." "They wallow in the heat of the day, just like hippos." "(Loud bellow)" "Quick, get in!" "Quick!" "It's preparing to charge again." "Got it!" "Look at the speed of that!" "What speed!" "He's accelerating now, all two tons." "We should be able to outrun him." "That is a prehistoric all-terrain vehicle, but it's not as fast as us." "It's given up, it's given up." "They're just as dangerous as a Sabre Tooth." "If you frighten a vegetarian like that and they come for you..." "Whoa!" "If the plant-eaters are this angry, what will the predators be like?" "Back at the Park, something wonderful is happening." "It looks like Nigel's dream of breeding dinosaurs is about to become true." "A female Ornithomimus, an ostrich-like dinosaur, has laid a large clutch of eggs." "Vet Suzanne has been monitoring her progress." "I 've been swatting up, so I know a lot about Ornithomimus nesting now." "They're much more like birds than they are reptiles." "It mimics an ostrich and lays a large brood of eggs." "And the ones on the perimeter, they become sacrificial eggs." "An ostrich can't brood them all." "She's laid lots of eggs, but two have rolled out." "She's going to reject those, she's not going to hatch them." "I might see if I can get them." "Without heat, the two rejected eggs have no chance of hatching naturally." "Vet Suzanne is going to use modern technology to give them a helping hand." "That is, if the Ornithomimus mum lets her." "(Squawks loudly)" "A successful egg poaching." "Now mum 's calmed down, it's over to Bob for the next stage of the incubation process." "We've not got long." "We've got to keep them warm." "Choosing the right temperature, that's the main thing." "Right..." "Now, what I don't know about incubating eggs isn't worth knowing, but I have to admit I've never incubated a dinosaur egg before." "But I'll tell you this, if we don't try something, that pair will never hatch." "Right..." "Back in South America, one million years ago." "It used to be that the Terror Birds ruled the roost here." "Now the Sabre Tooth Cats are in their prime and it doesn 't take Nigel long to spot one." "Look, down there." "It's a Sabre T ooth Cat." "My first one." "What a magnificent animal!" "They remind me so much of lions." "And there's one hunting there." "I think it's a female." "In lion society at least, the females do 90% of the hunting." "And it looks like she's using a similar technique." "They've got an amazing burst of speed, but only over short distances." "You can see she's got really stocky front legs, and that's because of animals like Toxodon that they have to bring down." "They've got big front legs and those massive teeth." "And she's charging!" "She erupted out of the grass there." "The Sabre Tooth's slashing at the throat." "It happens so quick." "It's those huge incisor teeth which make the Sabre Tooth such a successful, specialised killer." "One bite to the throat crushes the windpipe and severs the jugular." "For the poor Toxodon, it's all over very quickly." "And there's other Sabre T ooth Cats coming out." "They didn't help with the hunt." "They're coming for their share of the meal now." "I wonder how close we can get?" "(Growls)" "There's so much squabbling and there's some little cubs in there, too." "Look at that, six to eight weeks old, based on lion cubs." "And that's the time when lionesses will take them to a kill." "And they are biting down huge chunks of flesh." "And lions can take 1 1 0 pounds, 50 kilograms, at a single sitting." "That's half my weight in meat." "Even with so many of them, that Toxodon is so big," "I think they're going to take a long time to polish that off." "At last, they're leaving." "Sabre Tooth Cats must be doing really well at the moment." "There's so much meat left on that carcass." "Leaving a ton of fresh Toxodon unattended is the surest way of attracting South America 's other top predator - the Terror Bird." "What a magnificent creature!" "It must be three metres, over ten feet tall." "And that bird looks so hungry!" "And the Sabre Tooth..." "The Terror Bird has dropped the food." "And this is what happens." "The mammals outcompete the birds and that's why the Terror Birds become extinct." "We've come back to a point in prehistory where the balance of an ecosystem is changing." "The Terror Bird evolved when South America was an isolated continent." "Now it's nudged up closer to North America." "The Sabre Tooth Cats have come down and are outcompeting the birds." "So the Terror Bird is a perfect candidate to take back to Prehistoric Park." "But now how will he get a ten-foot-tall Killer Bird back to the Park without a cage?" "(Flies buzzing)" "I want to get that meat the T error Bird dropped." "Here goes." "Getting this close to a Sabre Tooth Cat is at best daft, at worst, deadly." "But it's a risk Nigel must take to get that Terror Bird back to Prehistoric Park." "(Growls)" "(Growls more fiercely)" "There's nothing like a juicy piece of steak for drawing the attention of a hungry Terror Bird." "Now he's got the bait, it's time for Nigel to put the final touches to his ingenious plan." "Come on, M r T error Bird!" "Here's dinner!" "(H igh-pitched squawk)" "Here he comes!" "Come on." "Come closer to the bait." "That's close enough!" "Come on!" "I've got to go fast enough so he doesn't get it." "That was a near miss then." "Look out!" "I knew you said it would be big, but this is over the top." "You can see why he needs a big cage." "He's nearly ten feet tall, incredible thing!" "What are we gonna feed him on?" "He was gobbling down huge chunks of flesh and bone and hide." "All predatory birds, owls, they need roughage - feathers and fur, so if we give him that sort of stuff, he should be fine." " No point in putting some cuttlefish in?" " You'd need a big cuttlefish!" "(Squawks)" "The following morning, there's a buzz of excitement as the Park awakens to the pitter-patter of tiny three-toed feet." "Nobody's seen a baby dinosaur for 65 million years and there 's a surprise in store for Nigel and Suzanne." "I didn't expect them to be covered in fluffy down" "like you get with baby birds." "I guess it's to keep them warm." "Dinosaurs and birds are closely related." "And just like birds, some baby dinos have downy feathers." "And it seems they react like birds, too." "They' re quite curious, they see their reflections or something." "Let's go in, come on." "They could easily escape through the fence, but they'll stay with their mum." "Look at that." "They remind me of a little partridge or grouse." "Let's try something." "Hey." "And they just completely freeze." "If there was a predator, they'd run in the grass, freeze and wait till their mum calls." "They've got to have some protection system." "Yeah, they're so vulnerable, tiny, tiny dinosaurs." "Pretty cute, aren't they?" "Well, for dinosaurs." "They're so lovely." "Bob, meanwhile, is still brooding over the eggs he put in the incubator." "All the other eggs hatched within a few hours of each other, but so far with this pair, not a thing, not a dickybird." "Suzanne doesn't think they'll hatch, but I'm not giving up." "They're too precious." "Nigel has already rescued one of South America's most ferocious predators from the brink of extinction, but the mission 's not over yet." "There's one final puzzle Nigel needs to solve." "If Sabre Tooth Cats were once America 's top predators, how did they end up fighting for survival?" "I ' m going back to when the last Sabre T ooths were on Earth, about 1 0,000 years ago." "Did they become extinct because they were too specialised?" "Look at the cheetah run, but there's a price to be paid for that speed." "Being fast means the cheetah is a lightweight." "It can't defend itself against lions or even hyenas, so when food is scarce, the cheetah often loses out." "Its specialisation of running fast can actually become its weakness." "Maybe the Sabre T ooths were over-specialised, too." "I want to go back 1 0,000 years now and find out if that's true." "Nigel's travelling back to a time when Sabre Tooths were dying out, so he's invited big cat expert Saba Douglas-Hamilton to join him." "Together they'll try to track down the last survivors of this magnificent species." "Almost a million years after his first visit," "Nigel was expecting Sabre Tooth Cats to be thin on the ground, but he didn 't expect South America 's vast plains to be empty of all the large animals that used to live here." "There are no Terror Birds, no Toxodon." "There have been big climate changes since Nigel was last here, and many animals have died out as a result." "Nothing." "We've been searching all day." "It's completely different." "I came to this precise location, big herds of Toxodon." "By this time, I'd seen a big family of Sabre Tooth Cats." "Maybe there's so little prey, they've spread out and are hunting individually." "When you've got that intensive selective pressure, the animals will have hugely extended territories and will hunt on their own." "Even lions, when there's not much food, have territories up to 1 50 square miles." "I reckon, if that is the case, we'll have to change our plan." "We're not covering enough ground, so if we split up and look on foot, we've got a better chance." "Travelling on foot is the only way to explore some of the target terrain." "But now it will have to wait till morning." "(Distant cries)" "The following day, Saba makes an early start to see if she can pick up the trail of the last Sabre Tooth Cats." "I'm hoping we'll dissect some animal trails, maybe see some footprints, but most importantly," "I can hear the sound of alarm calls from other animals." "The only problem is that, with Sabre Tooths right on the brink of extinction, it's really a bit like looking for a needle in a haystack." "Elsewhere, the eerie lack of large animals is beginning to get to Nigel." "I preferred it a million years ago." "At least there were Sabre Tooths around and you knew where you stood, but now they're so scarce." "Where are they?" "Meanwhile, Saba gets a whiff of her first clue." "Hey, look at this." "This has got to be Sabre Tooth Cat." "Yes, it's been scraping the ground to try and cover it up." "I bet the Sabre Tooths love this place." "Look at all the shade and high rocks, so they can sit up and look out over the plain for any prey." "It's full of hide, all bits of hair and bone as well." "I think this cat's had to scavenge, eating little bits and pieces from any old carcass it finds." "On the other trail, Nigel's definitely being stalked..." "But by what?" "There's a rustling." "No, I can see it." "It's not a Sabre Tooth." "(Laughs)" "An armadillo." "And a million years ago, there would have been giant ones." "Of course, they're extinct now, and these smaller armadillos are the only things around." "But what an extraordinary creature!" "It looks really prehistoric anyway." "Let's let you go." "Off you go." "When Saba makes a discovery of her own, sadly, it's not the one she was hoping for." "There's something in the grass up ahead." "Oh, no, I hope that's not what I think it is!" "Oh!" "Oh, no!" "Oh, Saba!" "Poor thing." "(Saba) It's only about two months old." "There's no sign of disease." "He's just skin and bones." "He's just died of starvation." "If the mother can't provide enough milk for a tiny cub, she must be in a bad way." "Doesn't bode at all well." "Poor little guy." "Although distressing, the discovery of the dead cub has given Nigel and Saba a valuable clue." "The cub's mother must be around here somewhere, but where?" "As dusk approaches, it will become too dangerous to continue tracking her, but Nigel's got another trick up his sleeve." "This could work." "Cats are nocturnal." "This is a camera with a motion sensor." "If a cat walks along this trail, it looks pretty well used, we may catch it on tape." "Big cats can see six times better than we can at night." "That's when they do most of their hunting, so a camera that can see through the darkness gives us our best chance." "Whatever happens with the camera trap, I'll get up at first light to see if I can track down the mother." "My concern is, considering what happened to the cub, she'll be in poor condition." "We've got to be really careful because I've seen Sabre Tooth Cats hunting and they are formidable predators with full stomachs." "If there's one that's injured, one that's really hungry, we've really got to watch our backs." "Later in the night, a sensor from the camera trap picks up some movement." "Something is definitely out there." "(Growls)" "The camera's toppled over, so it looks like something's been here." "And there's a musky mammalian smell, so it could be a cat, and if we're lucky, it's a Sabre Tooth." "This is fantastic stuff." "And here it's checking out this camera." "Right into the lens there." "It just swiped the camera with its paw." "That's why it was toppled over like that." "It's not a female, it's a male." "It's spraying all over the camera." "You see the family jewels there." "That's terrific news." "Saba's tracking a female." "If we can get the male as well, we can get a pair back to Prehistoric Park." "The mission is back on track." "And the trail is about to get very warm for Saba." "She's definitely hunting." "Look, here we've got fresh tracks, very fresh tracks." "She must've gone up on to higher ground." "(Growls)" "OK..." "Just don't move. keep looking her in the eye." "She's looking pretty upset." "(Growls)" "OK..." "She's pretty angry." "We're going to have to think about getting out of here." "We're in trouble." "Her mood's changing." "She's thinking about hunting us, so we'll have to start backing away slowly now." "(Radio crackles)" "(Nigel) 'Saba!" "Come in, Saba!" "'" "She's gone." "Oh, phew!" "That was close." " 'Saba, do you read?" "Over.'" " Nigel, come in." "How's it going with the female?" "Are you still tracking her?" "Yeah, it's been pretty interesting up here." "Could you come up and join me?" "'I'll be there as soon as I can.'" "As Nigel catches up with Saba, she's already pinpointed the female Sabre Tooth to a lower ridge where it's stalking some unusual prey." "We've got the female down there and she's hunting a deer of some species." "But she's got about as close as she's going to get now." " I think she's going to go for it." " It's such strange prey for her." "Those big, sturdy legs and amazing teeth are for catching big animals like Toxodon." " This isn't what she'd normally go for." " Definitely not." "They were hunting really big megaherbivores." "She hasn't paid any attention to wind direction." "(Nigel) She's getting close." "(Saba) It's caught her scent, but she's going for it anyway." "(Saba sighs)" "Missed it." "She was totally outclassed and totally outsprinted." "They're just not designed to catch fast-moving prey like that." "(Saba) Poor thing." "It's finally become clear why the Sabre Tooth Cats are on the brink of extinction." "There's no big prey animals, no Toxodon any more, none of these megaherbivores." "And Sabre Tooth, those weapons for slicing through the jugular, crushing the windpipe, they're specialised to take out big prey that weigh more than they do" "and they are not designed to outrun small deer and gazelle." "(Growls)" "Nigel and Saba follow the exhausted female back to her den and another discovery." "(Nigel) She's sniffing." "I don't think she's caught OU R scent." "She's looking for something." "(Plaintive cries)" "Did you hear that?" "She's calling." "When lions make that call in the back of their throat, it's often for their cubs." "Is she calling for the dead one?" "(Nigel) No, she's not." "Look, there's a tiny head in the grass." "Look, she's picking up another cub." "He's in a bad way though." "(High-pitched cries)" "The cub's calling back, but I can't hear any other sounds." "I think she's only got one living one." "(Saba) Look, it's nuzzling." "Doesn't look like it's getting any milk at all." "I think she must be dry." "They're in such a pitiful state." "(Cries of anguish)" "It's so distressing to watch." "We've got to try to dart her, get the cub, get them back to Prehistoric Park." "Suzanne the vet may be able to pull them round." "That's what we need to do." "But as they fetch the Jeep to tranquillise the stricken Sabre Tooths, there's an unexpected change of plan." "It's the young male that Nigel saw on the camera trap and his presence is an unsettling one." "Do you think he's going to be a danger to the cub, Saba?" "Yeah, this is really bad news." "If Sabre Tooths are like modern lions, this male being so far inside the female's territory means he won't have any qualms about killing her cub." "It brings the female back into season so he can mate with her immediately." "The female's close by and in no condition to protect her cub." "They're in real danger." "So we should dart the male first?" "Absolutely." "We've not got any other option." "To be able to tranquillise the male Sabre Tooth, they need to get much closer." "If they fail, the lives of the female and her only cub hang in the balance." "Look, it's coming straight towards us." "J ust time check." "(Growls)" " Good shot." " Got him!" "(Nigel) How long will the tranquilliser take to work?" "I gave him a small dose because of his size, so about ten minutes." "But we've really got to watch him now." " He's moving in that direction." " Something's over there." "(Growls)" "Back at Prehistoric Park, there have been disagreements among some residents." "Last week, the two teenage T-Rex clashed over territory and had to be forced apart." "OK, two, three!" "Now Bob is putting the finishing touches to a dividing wall to keep them apart." "Although exactly the same age," "Matilda, the sister, is larger and more aggressive than her brother Terence." "Now the dividing wall is complete," "Terence is being let back into the enclosure." "On his return, Matilda appears to be even more hostile." "It looks like the wall could be a potential life-saver for poor Terence." "(Low growling)" "In Bob's shed, there are still no signs of life from the incubator." "Back in South America, the tranquillised Sabre Tooth male is safely loaded on to the Jeep." "Now Nigel and Saba plan to tranquillise the female and her cub, so that all three cats can enjoy a better life at Prehistoric Park." "But as they near the female 's den, they realise something is tragically wrong." "(N igel) The cub, it's not moving at all." "The mum's nuzzling it." "No, there's absolutely no response." "(Nigel) I think we're too late, just too late." "The cub's gone." "(Faint growls)" "Starvation has killed her cubs and it's killing her, too." "Saba must act fast to save her." "(Gunshot)" "Once the female is tranquillised," "Nigel and Saba are ready to take both the adults back to the sanctuary of Prehistoric Park." "But it's not quite the happy ending they were hoping for." "Back at the Park, vet Suzanne has been working round the clock for two weeks, nursing the female Sabre Tooth back to health." "And she 's cautiously optimistic about the future." "She seems to be OK." "She's got a bit of a way to go." "She was really emaciated." "When Nigel found her, she was feeding her cubs." "Producing milk is an energy-demanding process, so it took a lot out of her." "Hopefully now that she's not feeding her cub, she'll put some weight back on." "We really hope she is still a reproductively active female, and she's not too old, which is a real concern." "We're really hoping that they do manage to mate successfully and then we'll get some cubs." "That's what we really hope for." "Meanwhile, someone else in the Park is celebrating the joys of parenthood." "(Bob) What a racket!" "Look, will you two pipe down?" "Now behave yourselves." "Come on!" "I knew I could do it." "I had the temperature too low." "But these two have finally hatched out." "Come on, quick sharp!" "Now the little rascals are following me everywhere!" "I was the first thing they saw when they broke out of their shells." "Now they think I'm their mam." "They're imprinting on me." "Some more?" "All right, just a little bit." "You must have hollow legs!" "Come on." "Imprinting is common in many modern-day bird species." "It's a survival mechanism which ensures that chicks stay close to the first thing they see after hatching, normally their mother, in this case, Bob." "It's not easy being a mother, you know!" "Go on, eh?" "It's been a time of upheaval, but calm has returned once more to Prehistoric Park." "The Titanosaurs are happy with their new-found freedom and are taking advantage of Bob having more important things to worry about." "The South American predators, the Sabre Tooth Cats and the Giant Terror Bird, are regaining their former strength and healthy appetites." "(N igel) Bob, they' re sticking to you like glue, the Ornithomimus." "And the Park's latest arrivals seem very happy with their new mum" " Bob!" "Next time, Nigel travels back further than he's ever gone before to a time when giant creepy-crawlies ruled the world." "And Suzanne plays Cupid to two very reluctant Sabre Tooths." "But for now, all eyes are on the T-Rex pen." "Unless Matilda calms down, things are going to get very dangerous at Prehistoric Park."

"Trying to be where I am So out of place" "Can't I just wait to see what's right?" "'Cause it looks like we're all just flying blind" "Check her out." "Who does she think she is?" "I know." "She thinks she's Carter's cousin." "Ow!" "Oh, was that your leg?" "I'm sorry." "She may be a loser like her cousin, but she's dangerous." " Really?" "Why?" " Are you serious?" "Look at her." "I know." "Totally love the hair." "(KICKING)" "Ow!" "What are you doing?" "Eating a hamburger." "Have you ever tried one?" "Yes." "And FYI, they have hamburgers in Iowa." "Oh!" "Right." " You're supposed to be blending in." " I am blending." "Speaking fluent French in class?" "And eating hamburger like you're having tea with the Queen?" " Well, how else should it be eaten?"

"You cannot order me to do anything." "Wanna bet?" "You're in my kingdom now." "Okay, hey, hey, hey." "Whoa, whoa." "Whoa, what's going on?" "Dad, she can't do it." "She can't act normal." " I am normal." " Really?" "Okay." "So, a normal person who has never seen a hamburger before can order one in six languages?" "Really?" "You did that?" "I always speak to my staff in their native tongue." "They're not your staff." "They're lunch ladies, okay?" "Dad, can't you see that this isn't gonna work?" "Carter, it's gonna work, okay?"

"You know, that's the best idea you've had." "What must I do?" "We'll start you off easy." "Inventory." " Inventory?" " Counting." "You count what's in here, and put it in here." "Have fun." "Oh!" "And when you're done, there's a whole other shelf, too." "One." " Everything okay?" " Yeah." "Just peachy." " You got the bow?" " Uh-huh." "Stay above that line." " What line?" " Right there."

" You know it's a little funny." " All right." "Here." "Go." " You wanna laugh, too." " No, I don't wanna laugh." " Yes, you do." " This is serious." "Come on." " What do you want for dinner tonight?" " Pizza." "Pizza?" "We had pizza last night." "How about..." "How about burgers?" "How about this?" "Pizza and burgers." " Pizza and burgers." " Yeah." "I wanna do both." " One as an appetizer, or just together?" " I don't know." "I didn't know we still had all that stuff." " What's all this?" " A proper dinner." "To thank you for helping me clean up the mess that I made in your shop of bugs." " It's bait." " I'm aware." "Okay." " Here." "Let me." " No, no." "Thank you, but tonight, I serve you." "Well, I'm not gonna say no to that." "It is for you." " For me?" " Mmm-hmm." "To wear." "Okay." "Fine." "(SNICKERS)" "Come on, Carter." "So, you cook?" "I thought you had servants for that." "Actually, my mother grew up a peasant." "(MOUTHING)" "So she taught me many family recipes." "(SPEAKING SPANISH)" "Wow!" "Yeah, that sounds kind of fancy." " Why don't we just order pizza?" " No, it's chicken and rice." "Fantastic." "Bring it on, Rosie." "(JOE CHUCKLES)" "You know, I haven't had a real home-cooked meal since..." "Forever." "Right." "Let's dig in!" " How do you like it?" " That..." "That is really, really good." "Gee, I had no idea you can cook." " Thank you." " This is terrific." "You're wonderful." "Thank you." "Would you like a roll?" " You made rolls, too?" " ROSALINDA:" "Yes." " I had no idea." " Yes." "Wow!" "Must be nice to play peasant for a day." "Would you excuse me?" "You do not know me, Carter." "What's the big deal?" "You'll be back with your servants and your personal chef and private tutors soon enough." "How much did your father tell you about me?" "Other than the obvious, I think we're on a need-to-know basis." "I think you need to know that my name is Rosalinda Marie Montoya Fiore," " and I am a royal princess." " (SCOFFS) No kidding." "I am from a small island nation called Costa Luna." " Never heard of it." " It is not on most maps." "It is very small, very unimportant to large countries, but very important to me." "When my father died, he left Costa Luna to me." "You don't have to tell me..." "One month before my coronation, our palace was attacked." "Your father was very brave." "He risked his life for you, I know." "That's his job." "He rescues poor, oppressed princesses." "Did he tell you we had to leave my mother behind?" "The man who invaded Costa Luna now holds her as a hostage." "I didn't know." "They told me my becoming Rosie González was the only way to keep her safe." "Stop." "It's okay." "Carter, whatever I did to make you dislike me, I am truly sorry." "I will try to blend in." "I will try to be from Iowa." "It is the only way to save my mother's life." "Let's just start over." "I would like that." "But you need to lighten up on this princess stuff." "It's really annoying." "Absolutely." "Please, I only want to be this typical American teenager." "You know what?" "I think we can arrange that." "I love this place!" "What is it?" "It's a bowling alley." "That's bowling." "Just do what I do and don't draw any attention to yourself, please." "Right." " Thank you." " Sure." " Carter!" "How you doing?" " Hi, Ed." " ED:" "Hi." "How you doing, Rosie?" " I'm well, thank you." " What'll it be?" " Bowling, please." "(CHUCKLES) No kidding." "Five-and-a-half coming up." " Thank you." " Sure." " What size?" " Excuse me?" "Your feet." "What size?" "(STAMMERING)" "I do not know." "All of my shoes are made for me." "There's a shock." "Just get her some shoes." "Okay." "Your Highness." "ROSALINDA:" "Why, thank you, Edward." " It's Edwin, actually." " Edwin." "That is a wonderful name." "Thank you." "It's been a pleasure serving you, milady." "All right." "Thank you, Romeo." "Okay." "You're not blending in." "Pick a ball." "Did you see that?" " Yeah." "Nobody ever does that for us." " They do now." "(CHELSEA CLEARS THROAT)" " Your shoe's untied." " Don't trip." "DONNY:" "Oh!" "Careful there." "Donny, you don't have to carry that for her." "She can do it herself like a normal person." " So I'll just take this." " DONNY:" "Whatever you say..." " Carter." " Right." " So, Donny is your boyfriend?" " What?" "No, no." "He's just a friend." "ROSALINDA:" "But he is very special to you." "I see the way you look at him." "It's the same way that Ed looks at you." "Okay, you're obviously not from here, so just bowl." "You first." "How do I win?" "You win by knocking down those white pins." "Okay, I'm ready." " What?" " You may fire at the target." "You may fire it yourself." "(PINS CLATTERING)" "Impossible." "Nice shot, Rosie!" "You done already, Carter?" "Yeah." "Our lane's getting a little crowded." "You don't really like your cousin, do you?" "No, it's..." "It's just..." "She can be sometimes, you know, a..." "Princess." "She could win it all." "She is getting really popular." "The vote is on Monday." "We can't let her get more popular than we are." "There's only one thing to do in a situation like this." "Excuse me!" "Excuse me!" "Roe!" "Excuse me!" "Excuse me!" "Roe." "You are such a natural." "Will you show us how to bowl like that?" " Of course." "But my name is Rosie." " Oh!" "Roe's our nickname we gave you." "We give all of our friends nicknames." "She's Chels." "And she's Brookie and you're Roe." "You're one of us now." "ROSALINDA:" "Carter?" "CARTER:" "What?" "Why do you care so much for this boy Donny?" "Who says I care for him?" "Fine." "I've been totally in love with him since, like, the third grade, when he kissed me under the basketball hoop." " Is that what you want to hear?" " He is quite beautiful." "Much like a prince." "I wonder if he is beautiful on the inside as well." " Shall we bowl again tomorrow?" " I can't." "I'm working at the bait shack." "I've never worked before." "Is this normal?" "Yes." "Lots of kids have jobs." " Then I will help you." " You can't." " Why not?" " Because it's mine." "You can't have everything that's mine!" "Well, just..." "Want a job so bad?" "Just go get one yourself." "All right." "Good night, Carter." "Thank you for giving me this job, Chelsea." "No prob, Roe." "Daddy owns, like, 17 Udderlys all over the South." " He's the King." " Your father is a king?" "Of frozen yogurt." "One more thing." "You have to wear this." "(TINKLING)" "So these are the frozen yogurt machines." "You just pull the lever and when it comes out you just put a little swirly on top and you're good to go, okay?" " Swirly?" " This is gonna be great." "And all your friends will be here to support you." "We all want you to succeed at your first job." " Thank you so much." " Uh-huh." "(BOTH LAUGH NASTILY)" "Ed!" "ED:" "Here she is, folks, a future homecoming princess of Lake Monroe, Louisiana." "Who is this natural beauty, you ask?" "Will you go away?" "I'm working." "This is Carter Mason." "Secret identity?" "Bait Girl." "So confident of her innate royalty, she is completely unafraid to handle whatever disgusting creature..." "Hey!" "Isn't that..." "Not on my camera, please." "Then turn it off." "No." "Today's my last day to get the "before" footage." "The princess vote is tomorrow." "Well, then go shoot Chelsea or Brooke." "Nah." "I've got tons of them already." " They pay me to film them." " Is that why you're doing this?" " 'Cause of the money?" " Absolutely." "I'm the only senior guy in Lake Monroe who doesn't have a car." "Figures." "You really hate this whole princess thing, don't you?" "I don't hate it exactly." "I just think it's shallow." "Girls like Chelsea and Brooke, all they care about is shoes." "Like wearing the right clothes makes them superior." "I just want to do something more important with my life, like my dad." "Yeah, yeah, he does sell some sick bait." "Right." "So, speaking of princesses, where's Rosie?" "How should I know?" "(CELL PHONE RINGING)" "I think I just found her." "GIRL 1:" "Hey, I've been waiting here for, like, 10 minutes." "BOY 1:" "I haven't got all day!" "ROSALINDA:" "Just a second." "(PEOPLE GRUMBLING)" "Hold on." "Oh, no!" "GIRL 2:" "It's not brain science!" "BOY 2:" "Come on, what are they paying you for?" "GIRL 2:" "I've been waiting for, like, ever!" "Come on, Chels." "She's dying in there." "Help her out." "You're absolutely right." "Brookie, we should go in there." "Oh, Chels." "If only our pedicures were dry." "Fine." "Bull, will you do me a huge favor?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "(WHISPERING)" "(SOFTLY) Wait." "How do I know it's the right one?" "It's big." "It's red." "Can't miss it." "BOY 3:" "I can't believe it." "This is ridiculous!" "BOY 4:" "I want my yogurt, okay?" "GIRL 3:" "You need some help, or what?" "BOY 4:" "Hello?" "GIRL 3:" "I have to go!" "(MACHINERY POWERING UP)" "(GASPING)" "Oh, no!" "(PEOPLE SQUEALING)" "(SCREAMS)" "(PEOPLE LAUGHING)" "What are you doing?" "Are you okay?" "Come here, Rosie." " You said to get a job." " Not this one!" "This job's for losers." "Trust me, I've had this job." "The bait shop is a step up." "(PEOPLE CHATTERING)" "Hey, check it out." " What is happening?" " CARTER:" "Chelsea set you up." "She invited all those people to come watch you make a fool of yourself." "Carter, it's okay." "I am not a fool." "And she cannot make something out of me that I am not." "Rosie, we have to do something." "I will turn the other cheek, because that is what princesses do." "Your father, the King of Yogurts, would be very disappointed in you." "(ALL GASPING)" "Yeah, well, I'm not a princess." "(EX CLAIMING IN DISGUST)" "(ALL LAUGHING)" "She can't be a princess!" "Don't freak, but she kind of can." "I've just been texted, like, 10 times." "Everybody thinks she's pretty cool." "Tomorrow, when the whole school votes for three princesses, she could be one of them." " And if she gets enough votes..." " Don't say it." "...she could become queen." "No, I'm the queen!" "It's my destiny!" "(ALL MURMURING)" "That's kind of iffy now." "I'd rather eat carbs than see her wearing my crown." " We have to stop her." " How?" "If she never becomes a princess, she can't be the queen, right?" "I'm not sure where you're going here." "Grab your cell." "We've got a whole lot of texting to do." "So, it's a skill that most Americans master in, like, the third grade," " but it's never too late to learn." " I am ready to try." "Good luck." "(BURPS)" "(CARTER LAUGHS)" "Nice." "Okay, next we'll work on slouching, eye-rolling and talking back to my dad." "If Mr. Elegante could see me right now, he would be so mad at me." " Who's Mr. Elegante?" " My royal dress designer." "You're kidding, right?" "No." "He is a close family friend." "If there were ever an emergency, he would be the first I would call." "Must be nice to be a queen." "Actually, it's not all about the dresses and crowns, Carter." "My mother told me that my father never called himself king." "To our people, he was father, brother and friend." "I hope to be like him when I am Queen of Costa Luna." " Father, brother..." " (LAUGHING) No!" "I want to make a difference." "To do something more important with your life?" "Yes." "You know, you're different than I thought a princess would be." "I hope that is a good thing." "Yeah, it is." "Thank you for helping me today." "A princess is never sure who her true friend is." "Today, I am sure." "Me, too." "(BURPING LOUDLY)" "I'll give myself this one and this one, for bravery and honor." "A thief has no honor." "Sophia!" "Come in, come in, come in." "We have a great deal to discuss." "Do you think it's too much?" "I want to look my best when I announce my engagement today." "Who could be so unfortunate as to become your bride?" "Well, as a matter of fact, she is standing right here in this room." "(LAUGHING)" "That's ridiculous." "I will never marry you." "Ever." "(LAUGHING) Of course you won't." "But Rosalinda will not know this." "She will see the announcement, assume you are doing it to protect her, and come racing back to her mother's side just in time to join you in exile." "The people of Costa Luna will never accept that." "The same was said for the people of Costa Estrella 20 years ago, and look what happened." "Hmm." "Take her back to her cell." "Oh, and bring me my hair and makeup team." "We must touch up this gray before I go on camera." "Yeah." "(SHOUTS IN PAIN)" "Sorry." "CARTER:" "Wait, where's everyone going?" "BURKLE:" "Good morning, students." "The votes for your three homecoming..." "ROSALINDA:" "We must hurry, Carter." "CARTER:" "Okay, you're way too into this princess thing." "BURKLE:" "Now, I'd like to announce the winners." "And your princesses are Chelsea Barnes!" "(ALL CHEERING)" "Thank you!" "Thank you!" "Carter Mason!" "(ALL CHEERING)" ""Carter Mason."" "And your third and final princess is" "Rosie González!" "(ALL CHEERING)" "Thank you." "Thank you." " What happened?" " I don't know!" "We texted everyone in the school." "They were supposed to vote for Carter instead of Rosie, not Carter and Rosie." " This is all your fault." " How is it my fault?" "If you were more popular, you'd be the princess, not her." "I am popular!" "This is not good, okay?" "Me being a princess is not normal." "Hey, there." "Hey, Rosie, can I talk to you?" " Me?" " Her?" "Yeah." "So, you know there's the homecoming dance and everything, and..." "Will you go to the dance with me, Rosie?" " Me?" " Her?" "Yeah." "I want you to be my date for the dance." "Donny, that is very kind of you, but no." "Will you excuse me?" "Uh..." "Sure." "That was the most humiliating thing that has ever happened to me." "And I've been humiliated a lot." "What was I thinking?" "A guy like Donny would never go out with me." "Then he is not worthy of you." "Yeah, you can say that 'cause you're all high and royal." " But I'm just a girl who sells bait." " No." "You are so much more." "You are a princess now." "Yeah." "Trust me, I am not a princess." "Yes, you are." "You just do not feel like one yet." "When I came here, you taught me how to act normal, not royal." "Now it is my turn to teach you." "You think that being a princess is superficial." "Yeah, I guess." "That it is about what you wear, and how you look." "Well, it is a little bit about how you look." "But more importantly, it is about what you have to offer the world and who you are inside." "Come on, Carter." "Let's go find your inner princess." "(ONE AND THE SAME PLAYING)" "You come from here I come from there" "You rock out in your room I'd like a world premiere" "We're more alike than anybody could ever tell" "Ever tell" "Friday we're cool Monday we're freaks" "Sometimes we rule Sometimes we can't even speak" "But we kick it up Let loose and LOL" "LOL" "It may seem clichéd for me to want to say that you're not alone" "Not alone" "And you can call me uncool But it's a simple fact I got your back" "Yeah, yeah, yeah" "'Cause we're one and the same" "We're anything but ordinary" "One and the same" "I think we're almost legendary" "You and me, the perfect team" "Chasing down the dream" "We're one and the same" "(INAUDIBLE)" "One and the same" "We're anything but ordinary" "One and the same" "I think we're almost legendary" "You and me, the perfect team" "Shaking up the scene" "We're one and the same" "You're just so good with everybody." "Kids, old people, you're probably even good with dogs." "That is true." "You're so much more generous than I thought you'd be." "It is a princess's job to help people." "I guess I never really thought about what it really means to be a princess." "(BOTH GIGGLING)" "Like this." "I can't believe you actually have to do this." "Oh, no, you don't." " Wait, then, why am I doing it?" " (LAUGHING) Because it is funny." "What?" "I hate you!" " You do?" " No, no, no." "No." "No, I didn't mean it that way." "I didn't mean "I hate you" I hate you." "I meant "I hate you," like, you're my best friend." "Oh!" "Well, then, I hate you, too." "And that dress is ugly." " It is?" " No!" "It is beautiful." "And so are you." "Look." "You're becoming a princess on the inside." "And now you look like one, too." "Excuse me, I have this lame reading assignment for Spanish class." "Do you think that you have something that's really easy with lots of pictures?" "Oh!" "Cool." ""Princess Rosalinda"?" "No way!" "(CELL PHONE RINGING)" "It's Mason." "What's going on?" "DIRECTOR:" "General Kane's announcement of his engagement to doña Sophia Montoya has popped up in several tabloid magazines." "The story is contained so far, but I would be lying to say I was not concerned." "She'd never agree to marry him." "I was not suggesting she would, Major." "General Kane's doing this to draw Rosalinda out." "He knows she won't allow her mother to be forced into marriage." "Absolutely." "So, it is imperative that we keep this from Rosalinda." "Yes, ma'am." "I agree." "Major, has she made any enemies?" "Anyone who might want to expose her identity?" "Not that I know of." "Let's move that throne here." "No." "No, actually, there." "Oh, I know." "Up there." "And let's hang some lights directly on it." "That might be too harsh on my skin tone." "We should hire a lighting designer." "The budget's gone, Chelsea." "What you see is what you get." "Okay, okay." "I know!" "A follow-spot just on me." "Maybe light pink, or golden like the sun." "It's great to be queen." "You're not queen yet." "Carter could win," " or Rosie." " Can it, Muffy." " My name's Margaret." " Not anymore." " Hey, Chels." " Don't call me that." "You lost that right when you lost your princess crown to Bait Girl and her strangely formal cousin." "Well, what if we could get Rosie to drop out of homecoming altogether?" " She would never do that." " She might." "She's not who she says she is." "She's Princesa Rosalinda." "CHELSEA:" "It's in Spanish." " What does the article say?" " I'm not sure." "What?" "I'm pretty, not smart." "Okay, let me try." "It's about Rosie and her mom." "One of them has fled the country and one of them is in prison or a paper bag." "I get those two mixed up." "No biggie." "Good work, Brookie." "Thanks, Chels." "CHELSEA:" "I have the perfect plan." " JOE:" "Hey, girls." " Hi, Mr. Mason." "Is Rosie home?" " Maybe." "What's up?" " Up?" "Well, we're planning a little princess surprise for Carter." " To congratulate her." " Yeah." "It was Rosie's idea." "She's in her room." "Go on in." "(CHUCKLES)" "(SPEAKING SPANISH)" "I've never heard of Costa Luna." "Have you, Brookie?" "No, Chels." "I do not know what you are talking about." "We know all about you and your mother." "And the paper bag." " What?" " Poor Princess Rosalinda." "Did you hear she's in hiding?" " You do not understand." " I understand that you lied to us." " Only to protect my mother." " From the paper bag?" "No." "Look, I will give you a reward for keeping my secret." " We know you will." " You do?" "And we already have it picked out." " I don't understand." " Yeah, me either." "You're gonna turn in your crown, Princess." "You're going to tell everyone that there is, and only will be, one true homecoming queen, and that's me." " That's good." " Fine." "You may take my crown, but you will not take Carter's." "She's no threat to you, Chelsea." "Fine." "Let Bait Girl play princess for one night." "She just won't look like one." "(HONKS)" "(CHELSEA LAUGHING)" "CHELSEA:" "Have fun at the dance!" "(BOTH LAUGHING)" "(CAR HORN HONKING)" "Look at what Chelsea and Brooke..." " What's wrong?" " I have to leave, Carter." "Leave?" "Leave where?" "Back to my country." "(SIGHS)" "General Kane is forcing my mother into marriage." " Father's never gonna let you go back." " He'll never know." "Yeah, but I know." "And I'm not gonna let you go back, either." "Carter, you have to stay out of this." "I have a duty to my people." "And this is something that you'll never understand." "I've loved living here in Louisiana." "And I wish my life could be like this every day." "But this is not reality." "I mean, you think my life as a princess is some fairy tale?" "This here is a fairy tale!" "And I cannot hide here anymore." "Soon I will be Queen of Costa Luna." "My country needs me." "You're right." "They do need you." "They need you to lead them, and to protect them." "And that's something you can't do from jail, which is exactly where you'll end up if you go back to Costa Luna." "No way am I letting this happen." "(CELL PHONE RINGING)" "Hola, this is Elegante." "Who is this?" "That's not important." "All that matters is I'm a friend of Princess Rosalinda, and she's about to make a very big mistake." "My princesa?" "What mistake is this?" "CARTER:" "She wants to come home." "No, no, no, no, no, she must not." "(SPEAKING SPANISH)" "It's too dangerous." "I know." "But I have a plan." "And I'm gonna need you to listen very carefully." "I will do anything for the Princesa." "Anything." "Okay, to start with, I'm gonna need two dresses." "You okay?" "I'm going to miss this place." "I'm going to miss you, Carter." "I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm going to miss you, too." "Rosie, can you do me a big favor before you go?" "Anything." "You said it is a princess' job to help others." "It is." "Well, the dance is on Friday night, and there's some people that I want to help." "I want to make this night special for them, for all of us." "Will you please stay until then?" "For them, please." "(INAUDIBLE)" "MARGARET:" "That's it, keep your chin up." "JOE:" "What in the..." "MARGARET:" "Okay, stay there, that's perfect." "Very good." " Morning, Dad." " Morning." "What the..." "What are you girls up to?" "Just having some friends over from school." "Is that okay?" "Yeah, yeah." "It's fine." "What's in the box?" "Homecoming stuff." "No biggie." "Hmm." "KANE:" "And you are sure about this homecoming dance, Señor Elegante?" "ELEGANTE:" "Absolutely." "I feel, in one way, I'm betraying my queen, but I thought you should know, General." "It's for the good of Costa Luna." "You did the right thing by coming to me, señor." "Fuel the jet!" "Tell the pilot we will be flying to Louisiana." "(SPEAKING SPANISH)" "(LAUGHING)" "A lovely color." "Lovely indeed." "Caribbean blue, General." "To complement Princess Rosalinda's skin tone." "Well, back to work." "You have a dress to finish." "Two, actually." "Where did you get them?" "Well, you said to call Mr. Elegante if I had an emergency." "And I think that this is a fashion emergency." " Carter, you are brilliant." " This one is yours." "He says you look best in pink." "And this one is mine." "It's Caribbean blue." "(ROSALINDA CHUCKLES)" "Thank you, Carter." "This is a night I'll always remember." "I hope so." "Are you guys ready?" "'Cause it's getting kind of late." "HELEN:" "Come on in, girls."

" Don't do it!" "Stop!" " Wait!" "I'm not gonna kid you, Mr President." "These are dark times." "The odds are against us." "We need a Hail Mary pass." "We need raw power!" "We need monsters." "Monsters!" "Of course!" "It's so simple!" "I..." "I'm not following you." "Over the last 50 years, I have captured monsters on the rampage, and locked them up in a secret prison facility." "So secret that the mere mention of its name is a federal offence." "Is he referring to Area Fifty..." "Mr President, say hello to Insectosaurus!" "Miss Ronson, please." "Nuclear radiation turned him from a small grub into a 350-foot-tall monster that attacked Tokyo." "Here we have the Missing Link."

"General, I propose we go forward with your monsters-versus-aliens idea... thingy." "Go fish." "Do you have any threes?" "Yes." "I do!" "How are you doing this?" " You're the luckiest guy I know." " Luck ain't got nothin' to do with it." "What the?" "Hey!" "They called me crazy, but I'll show them." "I'll show them all!" "Doctor, I'd prefer you didn't do your mad scientist laugh while I'm hooked up to this machine." "You're right, Insecto." "You've let that quack experiment on you for over a month." "I'm not a quack!" "I'm a mad scientist!" "There is a difference." "Guys, what choice do I have?" "If he can make me normal, or even six foot eight," "I can get out of here, get back to the life I'm supposed to have." " I should be in..." " Let me guess, Fresno?" "Well, Fresno is just a stepping stone." "Next stop, Milwaukee." " Then New York, then hopefully..." " Yeah, we know." "Paris." "Throw the switch, Doctor, but don't do the laugh." "Now you're going to feel a slight pinch in the brain." "Sorry." "Susan!" "Am I small again?" "I'm afraid not, my dear." "In fact, you may actually have grown a couple of feet." "That's OK, Doc." "We'll try again tomorrow." "You really don't get it, do you?" "No monster has ever gotten out of here!" "That's not true!" "The Invisible Man did." "No, he didn't." "We just told you that so you wouldn't get upset." "He died of a heart attack 25 years ago." "No!" "Yeah... in that very chair." "He's still there." "You see what I'm saying?" "Nobody's leaving." "Nobody's ever getting out." "Good news, monsters!" "You're getting out!" "Until today." "So let me get this straight, Monger." "You want us to fight an alien robot." "And, in exchange, the president of these United States authorised me to grant you your freedom." "I can't believe it!" "Soon, I'll be back in Derek's arms or he'll be in mine." "I can't wait for spring break back at Cocoa Beach, just freaking everybody out." "And I'll go back to my lab and finally finish my experiments." "No!" "That's me, B.O.B." " Then I'll be a really giant lady." " That's Susan, B.O.B." "Fine." "Then I'll go back to Modesto and be with Derek." "That's still Susan, B.O.B." "I think I, at least, deserve a chance to be with Derek!" "All right, let's go!" "Everybody move in an orderly fashion!" "This is an emergency!" "We are evacuating the city!" "Exact change is appreciated, but not necessary!" "Let's move out!" "This is San Francisco!" "This isn't far from my home!" "Feel the wind on your antennae." "Isn't this wonderful?" "I haven't been outside in 50 years." "It's amazing out here!" "It's hotter than I remember." "Has the Earth gotten warmer?" "That'd be great to know." "That would be a very convenient truth." " Now that's a robot!" " It's huge." "Try not to damage it too much." "I might want to bring it back to the farm!" "No, no, no, wait!" "You didn't say anything about it being huge!" "Wait!" "No!" "Don't leave!" "I think he sees us." "Hello!" "Hi!" "How you doing?" "Welcome!" "We are here to destroy you!" "I can't fight that thing." "I can't even..." "I've never..." "I'm hyperventilating." "Does anybody have a giant paper bag?" "Relax." "Old Link's got this under control." "Hide in the city, Susan." "You'll be safe there." "But stay away from the Tenderloin!" "It's a little dicey!" "Finally, some action." "I'm gonna turn that oversized tin can into a really dented oversized tin can." "OK!" "Does anybody have a 20 on Insectosaurus?" "Wow!" "Would you look at the size of that..." "Foot!" "I got him, you guys!" "I got..." "Don't worry, I won't let go!" "I'm wearing him down!" "Please tell me he's slowing down!" "Get to the city, Link." "I'll catch up with you as soon as I can." "Or maybe you'll have to catch up with me." "Oh, no!" "No, no, no!" "OK, OK." "I got this." "Yep, that hurt." "Get in!" "I have a plan!" "Hot dogs!" "All right, Link, I'm going to pull up alongside it!" "You get up in there, get to its central processing unit, and..." " Hey, guys, catch me!" " No!" "Let's go, let's go!" "Keep it moving!" "Hey!" "No honking!" "Excuse me!" "Coming through!" "On your right!" "No control!" "Oh, no." "OK!" "It's going to be OK!" "Look, I'm gonna get you out of there!" "Hold on a second!" "We have to get off the bridge before..." "No, no, no!" "Get away from me!" "Coming through!" "Watch it!" "Hey, furball, where you been?" "Yeah, I know." "Papa's a little out of shape." "Excuse me!" "He's trying to kill me!" "Why is it doing that?" "Why would it..." "Wow." " Wow." "You're doing great!" " I'm doing everything!" "Not for long." "Come on, you guys." "Let's take this thing down!" "A deflector shield." "Typical." "You can't crush a cockroach!" "Right, right." "Here we go." "Insectosaurus!" "Insectosaurus!" " B.O. B!" " What?" " Help me!" " Sorry." " I was staring at this bird over there." " Get these people off the bridge!" "Got it." "No, B.O. B!" "Move the dividers!" "Oh, yeah, you're right." "My bad." "Go, go, go, go!" "Link!" "Oh, I don't feel good." "OK." "Susan, you can do this." "All right." "Let's take this thing down." "Retrieval has failed." "Don't get upset." "It happens to everyone." "That lower life form thinks she can steal my Quantonium?" "!" "Send another probe at once!" "Quantonium cannot be retrieved via robot." "Carbon-based life form, locally known as Susan, is now too strong." "Oh, you think because you're all big and strong and you can destroy my robot probe that you're gonna send me running and hiding?" "!" "My days of running and hiding are over!" "Computer, set a course to Earth." "I will retrieve the Quantonium myself, even if I need to rip it out of her body one cell at a time!" "Careful, it's hot." "Three weeks ago, if you had asked me to defeat a giant alien robot," "I'd have said, "No can do"." "But I did it!" "Me!" "I'm still buzzing." "Did you see how strong I was?" "!" "Probably isn't a jar in this world I can't open." "You were positively heroic, my dear." "I especially loved how you saved those people on the bridge." "It was a nice touch." "Wasn't she amazing, Link?" "Yeah, she was great." "Really cool." "Loved it." "Oh, poor Link." "After all that tough talk, you were out-monstered by a girl." " No wonder you're depressed." " Hey, I'm not depressed." "I'm tired." "Why are you tired?" "You didn't do anything." "Well, I haven't been sleeping well." "I got sleep apnes... apnea." "Whatever." "It's not fun." "So Link's a little rusty..." "I mean, sleep deprived." "You'll be back to your old self in no time." "And so will I." "What happened to the "there isn't a jar in the world I can't open" stuff?" "Wait." "Did you find a jar you couldn't open?" "Were pickles in it?" " Where's the giantjar of pickles?" "!" " What my associate is trying to say is that we all think the new Susan is the "cat's me-wow"." "I'm sorry." "Thanks, you guys." "That is so sweet, but I have a normal life waiting for me." "You know?" "So, tell me, exactly, how this normal life thing works with you being giant." "I'm not gonna be a giant forever." "Derek won't rest until we've found a cure for my condition." "We're a team." "We could all do with a Derek." "Perhaps, someday, we could make his acquaintance!" "Really?" "You guys want to meet Derek?" "First stop, Modesto!" "Ginormica, I called your family to let them know you were coming home." "Now, I also called the Modesto PD and told them not to shoot at you." "Thanks, General." "OK, remember, these people aren't used to seeing anything like you, or you or you." "So just be, you know, cool." "Just be... you know..." "Follow my lead." "Stop!" "That was an accident!" "Don't destroy anything!" "Susan?" " Susie Q!" " Mom?" "Daddy?" " Did they experiment on you?" " No, Mom." "I'm fine." "It's OK." "They're with me." "These are my new friends." "Oh, Derek!" "I missed you so much, thinking that we'd someday be together again!" "It's the only thing that got me through prison!" "I love you!" "I love this man!" "No, B.O. B!" "That's my mother!" "You're suffocating her!" "Honey, are you all right?" " I taste ham." " Sorry, Mom." "He's just a hugger." "Where's Derek?" "He's at work, sweetie." "You know how he is about his career." " We're not gonna celebrate without him!" " Susan!" "What do I do with all your little friends?" "Just put out some snacks!" "They'll eat anything!" "Ambrosia!" "How's it going?" "Qué pasa, girlfriend?" "Way to cut up a rug, Insecto!" "Who wants to go for a swim with the Link?" "Hi." "I'm Benzoate-Ostylezene-Bicarbonate." "Or you can call me "B.O.B.", whichever's easier." "Did I come on too strong?" "I'm sorry." "I'm a little rusty." "I've been in prison my whole life." "Why'd I mention prison?" "I didn't mean to scare you." "I'm just going to go." "I feel so stupid." "All right, everyone, just stay calm." "Whatever you do, do not provoke them." "Anyone care for an Atomic Gin Fizz?" "It's got quite a kick." "Chlorine!" "Chlorine in my eyes!" " They're turning on us!" " Everyone run for your lives!" "What are they running away from?" "That's hilarious, Jim." "That's exactly the kind of down-home country humour" "I'm gonna miss when I'm in Fresno." "This is Derek Dietl, signing off for the very last time." " Good night, Modesto!" " Channel 172." "And cut." "Did you like that sign off?" "Just made it up." "Oh, my goodness." "Wait, wait, wait!" "But, but!" "Oh, Derek." "You wouldn't believe my last three weeks!" "Thinking about you was the only thing that kept me sane." " Can't breathe!" "Ribs collapsing!" " Oh, my gosh!" "I'm so sorry!" "Oh, my goodness." "Is that better?" "OK." "OK." "I'm still kind of getting used to my new strength." "Wow!" "You really are big!" "Yeah, but I'm still me." "I'm still the same girl you fell in love with." "Except you did just destroy the Golden Gate Bridge." "But that was the only way I could stop that giant robot!" "You ever think I could do something like that?" "No, I didn't." "I can honestly say it never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever occurred to me." "Look, I know this is a little weird." "OK, it's a lot weird, but we'll figure it out." "I know that, together, we can find a way to get me back to normal." "Susan, try and look at this from my perspective." "I have an audience that depends on me for news, weather, sports and heart-warming fluff pieces." "You expect me to put all that on hold while you try to undo this thing that happened to you?" "That I had absolutely nothing to do with?" "Yes." "That's exactly what I expect." "What about the life we always talked about?" "Don't you still want that?" "Of course." "I just don't see how I can have that with you." "Derek, please, don't do this." "You have to face facts, Susan." "Don't crush me for saying this, but I'm not looking to get married and spend the rest of my life in someone else's shadow." "And you're casting a pretty big shadow." "I'm sorry." "It's over." "Good luck, Susan." "Wow!" "What a shindig!" "Your parents really know how to throw it down." "What?" "No, that was a great party, one of the best I've been to since I got out of prison." "I must have been at a different party, 'cause that's not how I interpreted it at all." "I don't think your parents liked me, and that JELL-O gave me a fake phone number." "Well, at least the garbage was free." "You know?" "I mean..." "Ah, who are we kidding?" "We could save every city on the planet, and they'd still treat us the same way they've always treated us like monsters." "Right." "Monsters." "Anyway, how is Derek?" "Derek is a selfish jerk." " No!" " Yes." "All that talk about "us"." ""I'm so proud of us."" ""Us just got a job in Fresno." There's no "us"." "There was only Derek." "Why did I have to get hit by a meteor to see that?" "I was such an idiot!" "Why did I ever think life with Derek would be so great, anyway?" "I mean, look at all the stuff I've done without him." "Fighting an alien robot?" "That was me, not him." "And that was amazing!" "Meeting you guys?" "Amazing." "Dr Cockroach, you can crawl up walls and build a supercomputer out of a pizza box, two cans of hairspray, and..." " A paper clip!" " Amazing!" "And you!" "You hardly need an introduction." "You're the Missing Link!" "You personally carried 250 co-eds off of Cocoa Beach, and still had strength to fight off the National Guard!" "And the Coast Guard and, also, the lifeguard." "Amazing!" "B.O. B!" "Who else could fall from unimaginable heights and end up without a single scratch?" " Link?" " You." "Amazing!" "Good point, Insecto!" "Susan, don't short-change yourself!" "Oh, I'm not going to short-change myself ever again!" " Testify!" " Yeah." "Oh, yes." "Susan!" "Way to go, Insecto!" "Insecto, look out!" "Insectosaurus!" "No!" "You're gonna make it." "It's going to be all right." "Look at me." "Don't you close those eyes." "Don't you dare close those eyes." "You can't..." "You must be terrified." "You wake up in a strange place, wearing strange clothes, imprisoned by a strange being floating on a strange hovering device." "Strange, isn't it?" "Hardly." "It's not the first time." "Wow." "You really get around." "To the extraction chamber!" "Look." "What is it that you want from me?" "You have stolen what is rightfully mine!" "I didn't steal anything from you." "Your enormous, grotesque body contains Quantonium, the most powerful substance in the universe." "Did you really think you could keep it from me?" "That's what this is all about?" "You destroyed San Francisco, you terrified millions of people you killed my friend, just to get to me?" "Silence!" "Your voice is grating on my ear nubs." "It's a shame you won't be around to see what the power of Quantonium can do in the tentacles of someone who knows how to use it!" "I know how to use itjust fine!" "Don't bother." "That force field is impenetrab..." "What the Flagnard?" "!" "That should stop your puny..." "Computer, close door, hangar two!" "Close door, hangar three!" "Door, hangar four!" "Close them all!" "Computer, begin extraction!" "Finally, I can rebuild my civilisation on a new planet." "Any thoughts on where I should set up shop?" "Your planet, perhaps?" "You keep your slimy tentacles off my planet!" "If you wanted to stop me, you should have done it when you possessed the Quantonium!" "Now you're nothing." "There are innocent people down there who didn't do anything!" "There were innocent people on my home planet before it was destroyed." " I'm sorry your planet was destroyed." " Oh, don't be." "I'm the one who destroyed it." "Confused?" "After I reveal my tale to you, everything will become crystal clear." "Computer, initialise cloning machine." "Yes, Gallaxhar." "Many zentons ago, when I was but a squidling," "I found out my parents were..." "No child should ever have to endure that!" "So I went on the road with a giant..." "And soon thereafter was married!" "Things were going well, until she wanted to..." "And then I was all, "No way!", and she was all, "Yes, way", and I was like..." "But I've told you too much already!" "Let the birth of my new planet, now called "Gallaxhar's Planet" begin!" "Once again, a UFO has landed in America, the only country UFO's ever seem to land in." "Excuse me." "What's that, Henshaw?" "Okey-dokey." "We now take you, live, to a transmission from the alien spacecraft." "Humans of Earth, I have come in peace." "You need not fear me." "I mean you no harm." "However, it is important to note most of you will not survive the next 24 hours." "And those who do survive will be enslaved and experimented on." "You should in no way take any of this personally." "It's just business." "So just to recap:" "I come in peace, I mean you no harm and you all will die." "Gallaxhar out." "OK, boys, set the terror level at code brown 'cause I need to change my pants." " What're we gonna do now, Doc?" " I..." "I don't know." "I'll tell you what we're gonna do." "We're not gonna let Insecto die in vain." "We're gonna get up there, find Susan, and we're gonna take that alien down!" "All right, you got enough juice in those jetpacks to get up there, but not enough to make it home." "I'll come get you if I can." "If I don't, it means I'm dead." "Or late." "I've been your warden for close to 50 years." "That's no longer the case." "For what it's worth..." " That's rude." "What did we do?" " No, B.O.B., that's not rude." "That's a sign of respect." "General, it's targeting us!" "That's the idea, Lieutenant." "Hold your course." "Steady." "Steady." "Hard right!" "Hard right!" "I can't shake it!" "Hang on to your socks!" "We're going for a ride!" "That's why I always wear a parachute, Lieutenant." "You can let go of me now, Lieutenant." "Who are you signalling?" "We're right here." "Hey, zip it!" "Clone!" " Hail Gallaxhar!" " No, not all of you." "You, there." "How do I do this?" "Three back." "No, no, no, no." "That guy next to you." "The one I'm pointing at!" "You!" "The one..." "You, clone!" "Yes!" "Good!" "Take the prisoner to the incinerator." "She's useless to us now." " Hail Gallaxhar." " Hail me." "Wow." "Ginormica ain't so..." ""ginormic" anymore." "How are we supposed to get to her?" "There's too many of them." "It's impossible." "I may not have a brain, gentlemen, but I have an idea." "This is not going to work." "Halt!" "I..." "Gallaxhar, command you to hand over the prisoner this instant." "Clearly, you are defective beyond repair." "Guards, take this defective clone to the incinerator!" "Well, what are you waiting for?" "You and you!" " Seriously?" " Yes!" "Take the prisoner and the defective clone to the incinerator!" " Of course, sir." " Here's a security pass, just in case." " Would you like a gun?" " Yes, I would." "Hey, guys, look." "OK." "I can't believe you guys came to save me." "Thank you." "Don't mention it." "We monsters got to stick together." "But I'm not a monster anymore." "I'm just me." "My dear, no matter what your size, you'll always be nothing but a filthy, carbon-based life form!" "Hail Gallaxhar!" "Hail Gallaxhar." "These disguises are the bomb!" "That's it!" "Follow me." " The only way to save the Earth..." " Hail Gallaxhar!" "Hail Gallaxhar." "The only way..." " Hail Gallaxhar!" " Hail Gallaxhar." "...to save the Earth is to blow up this ship..." " Hail Gallaxhar!" " Hail Gallaxhar." "...before the invasion starts." " How are we gonna do this?" "We need to find the main power core." "Excuse me, could you direct us to the main power core?" "Gladly." "It's right there, above the extraction chamber." "Thank you very much." "Hail Gallaxhar." " Watch out!" " Look out, brainless!" "Give me that thing!" "A weapon like this needs to be in the hands of someone responsible." "What?" "!" "Hail Gallaxhar?" "Monsters!" " Monsters." " Monsters?" "!" "Attention, all aliens!" "Destroy all monsters!" "You want some of this?" "!" "Ninja!" "You want to hurt my friends, you'll have to go through me!" "Oh, yeah." "Susan!" "I can't believe we made it!" "O..." "M..." "G." "Warning:" "Intruder." "You'll never figure out my colour code." "A hexadecimal colour code system." "This won't be but a moment." "Red, green, blue, yellow, orange, baby blue, purple, pink, mauve, gold, brown, mocha, avocado, adobe gold!" "Doc, come on, dance!" "Your busted, tired dance moves are no match for my security protocols." " We can't hold them off much longer!" " One thing you don't know about me!" "My Ph. D... is in dance!" "Dance!" "Dance!" "Security protocol breached." "Ship has been set to self-destruct." "Total annihilation in T-minus six minutes." " Well, launch the invasion then!" " Invasion no longer possible." "Oh, space balls!" "Divert the Quantonium to the bridge, and prepare my escape capsule!" "Look at that!" "They're all running scared!" "Monsters win!" "I don't think that's why they're running." "Ship will self-destruct in T-minus five minutes." "Hail Gallaxhar!" "We're not gonna make it!" "Hang on!" "Keep going!" "It's no use." "It won't budge." "If I was still Ginormica, I could do this!" "Get out of here while you still got the chance!" "No!" "Don't say that." "I'm not leaving you guys." "Yes, you are." "Rendezvous with Monger." "He's outside the ship, waiting for you." "Go while there's still time." "Ship will self-destruct in T-minus four minutes." "Don't you worry about us, Susan." "You finally have a chance to get your old life back." "I don't want my old life back." "They think they've stopped me?" "!" "They've stopped nothing." "Female carbon-based life form, or Susan, not contained." "What?" "!" "Attention, robot probes!" "Crush the earthling!" "Robot bay has been destroyed." "Fire phasoid cannon!" "Are you crazy?" "!" "You could have killed me!" "Then we understand each other." "Now, open the doors and let my friends go." "Or what?" "You don't actually think you're a match for me, do you?" "Quantonium has been successfully diverted to the bridge." "Escape capsule ready for transport." "Like I told you before, you should have defeated me when you had the Quantonium." "Have fun exploding!" " Now open the doors." " Even if I wanted to, I couldn't!" "That's what happens when you set a ship to self-destruct!" "Now we're all going to die!" "And there's nothing you can do about it, Susan!" "I wouldn't be so sure." "And the name is Ginormica." "Total annihilation in T-minus one minute." " It's been an honour knowing you, Doc." " The feeling's mutual." "I'll see you guys tomorrow for lunch." "That's right, B.O.B." "And there'll be candy and cake and balloons." "Cake and balloons for lunch?" "!" "It's gonna be the best day ever!" "I love you guys!" "By Hawking's chair!" "Total annihilation in T-minus 30 seconds." " Where's Monger?" "!" " He's supposed to be here!" "He said the only reason he wouldn't be here is if he was dead!" "Or late!" "Insectosaurus?" "!" "You're alive!" "And you're a... butterfly!" "Eight seven six five four three... two..." " Come on, come on!" "...one." "Nothing happened." "Maybe my count was..." "There they are!" "Here they come!" "Yeah!" "Oh, great." "Oh, boy." " Susie Q!" " Daddy!" "Oh, Susan." "Ever since you were a baby, I knew that someday you would, you know, save the Earth from an invasion from outer space." "Thank you, but it wasn'tjust me, Mom." "Excuse me!" "Hello!" "Coming through!" "How are you?" " Susan!" " Derek?" "Baby, I thought long and hard about what happened between us." "And I want you to know I forgive you." "You forgive me?" "Of course." "It wasn't your fault you got hit by a meteor and ruined everything." "And you know what?" "I say maybe you didn't ruin everything." "I just got a call from New York." "They offered me network." "All I have to do is get an exclusive interview from you." " Really?" " Yeah." "I get my dream job and you get your dream guy." "It's a win-win for Team Dietl." "Derek that's amazing." " Is the camera rolling?" " Absolutely." "Good." "Because I wouldn't want your fans to miss this." "This is Susan Murphy, saying," ""Goodbye, Derek!"" "B.O.B., could you?" "Derek, you are a selfish jerk, and guess what?" "I've met someone else." "She's lime green." "She has 14 little chunks of pineapple inside her, and she's everything I deserve in life!" "I'm happy now, Derek, without you!" "It's over!" "Turn it off." "Monsters, I'm so proud of you, I could cry, if I hadn't lost my tear ducts in the war." "But not crying will have to wait." "The world needs you again." "What is it, General?" "Seems a snail fell into a French nuclear reactor." "As we speak, Escargantua is slowly making its way to Paris." "Well, I've always wanted to go to Paris." "Now who's with me?" "What do you say, Butterfly... osaurus?" "We're in." " I'm in!" " Count me in, too." "Au revoir, sweetie!" " Have a safe flight!" " Yeah, and hang on!" "Goodbye, Derek!" "Good luck getting over me." "B.O.B., it's me he's never going to get over." "Wait, wait!" "You were dating Derek too?" "!" "That two-timing jerk!" "Everyone, let's welcome my new chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff," "General W.R. Monger!" "Thank you, Mr President." "What a great way to celebrate my 90th birthday." "Very good, Warren." "All right." "Let's get it started in here Nerd?" "Gentlemen, I have assembled a preliminary budget estimate for the rebuilding of San Francisco." "Zoinkers." "This is going to be a boring one." "Good time for a cup ofjoe." "Warren, how do you take it?" "Hit me with a double venti organic chocolate brownie caramel Frappuccino, extra hot, with one inch of foam non-fat." " You got it!" "Black it is." "Don't do it!" "Wait!" "My God, man!" "What have you done?" "!" "Time to wave the white flag and head for the bunker." "Let's check on the situation in 500 years." "Who wants to freeze my head?" "English subs extracted and corrected by ardeides" " TnT Rippers"

" Did you unscrew the Phillips heads?" " Check." " Did you unscrew all the flat heads?" " Yep." "And now we wait." "Now, go hide the evidence while I walk around saying:" ""What happened?" "Who would do such a thing?"" "I'll return these to the shop room..." "What's left of it." " Don't tell him I'm here." " I know you're there, Skinner!" "I'd recognize those discolored Hush Puppies anywhere." "Hear that?" "He thinks my Try'N'Save brand Shush Mutts are genuine Hush Puppies." "We've got the "how," and we've got the "who,"" "but not the "why."" "Here it is." "Hard to believe one lad can cause all this mayhem." "Particularly a lad who failed "Introduction to Unscrewing."" "And I don't buy this "lone prankster" theory." "I think there was a second "funman."" "And if you don't identify him, you're looking at a week's suspension." "A nickel?" "You realize, if you're suspended, you'll be missing..." "Taco Wednesday." "Crunchy shell, ground beef, lettuce, mild sauce, and of course, shredded cheddar cheese!" "I'll never tell." "Then consider yourself suspended, mister." "Willie, take him to the big house..." "where he lives." "Let's go, lad." "Suspended boy walking!" "Thanks for not selling me out." "This really sucks, Bart." "I'm grounded, and spend all day listening to my dad yell at "Mad Money" with Jim Cramer." "You said tech stocks were bulletproof!" "Look, I gotta go." "But don't worry, I'll visit you every day." "I promise." "Bart, you're a true friend." "I'm glad they suspended Milhouse." "He's a bad influence on you." "You know, I think Milhouse is El Barto." "And now, you're gonna visit your grampa while I park around the corner and take a nap." "So, Grampa, not like I'm anxious to go, but I've been here 10 minutes, which is like 7 hours in kid years." "It's her!" "The little girl who doesn't recoil at the sight of us!" "Hi, guys." "I brought cookies." "Chocolate chip for Donald, low sodium for Abe, not-made-by-immigrants for Sam and imaginary for Major Preston." "With this cookie I can buy back Private O'Malley from the Zulus." "I think it is so cool what you're doing." "So, what's the gag?" "You put ex-lax in the cookies, then just sit back and watch the fireworks?" " I would never do that." " Oh, right." "I was thinking of other things that are hilarious." "Like." "Things that you think are funny." "Those are funny." " I'm Bart." " I'm Jenny." "She had more curves than a Hot Wheels track." "Well, she didn't yet, but she would after puberty." "Oh, my God." "How long was I zoned out?" "Bart, this is my Aunt Belle." "We dress alike." "Isn't that cute?" "Math, done." "Pine cone, collected." "Permission slip, signed." "Now, time for a break." "A little social studies." ""What will Springfield be like in 50 years?"" "Let's see what the computer says." "That's horrible." "What else?" "Oh, my God!" "It just gets worse and worse." "So, who's the special someone?" "Jenny." "Fifth grade girl." "She gets to use the real scissors." "Nice." "When she talks to me, I feel like a better person." "Powerful stuff." "You'd better claim her as your own." "Punch her in her arm, or if you're really serious, stick gum in her hair." "Here, I always come prepared." "Take two." "You might get lucky." " Hey, Jenny." " Hi, Bart." "Boy, you make it look effortless." "And that kid's giving you zero pump." "You know what a girl likes to hear." "Seal the deal!" "Punch her!" "Punch her!" "Punch her!" "Do you want to go on a picnic tomorrow?" "You'd love my PB and J." "The secret is, no PB, double J." "It's a date." " Willie, I've got a girlfriend!" " Really?" "Well, I do, too!" "She's... a bikini model from Sweden." "That's great." "Willie, darling, come back to bed." " Don't you love me?" " Don't compete with my job, Inga." "You'll never win." "And now, Ralph Wiggum will read his essay on "Springfield in 50 Years."" ""In 50 years, the vacuum cleaner will be quiet and not scary."" "Next, we have Lisa Simpson." "Ralph, how I envy your optimism!" "There is no Springfield, 50 years in the future!" "With global warming trapping the CO2 inside our poisonous atmosphere, our super-heated oceans will rise, drowning our lowlands, leaving what's left of humanity baking in deserts that once fed the world!" "And in the new Nineveh, darkness falls." "Lisa, your outburst was either a sign of deep emotional imbalance, or a passionate response to a sobering truth." "Luckily, the treatment for both is intensive therapy." "What's therapy going to do for me when the world is in ashes?" "I don't know." "But when you go, could you return this Sports Illustrated for me?" "Someone must have..." "put it in my bag." "They do that, you know." "They're always putting things in my bag!" "So, you visit old folks," "How else do you make the world a better place?" "I spend a lot of time working with a mentally-challenged guy." "Wait, here he is now!" " Lookin' good, Homer!" " Boy." " He seems pretty high-functioning." " Just wait." "Don't shake your fist at me!" "I don't want any trouble." "Come on." "Here, just take my wallet." "Leave me alone, okay?" "Do you know who else was really into rowboats?" "Jesus." "And he could've turned his rowboat into a jet ski, but he didn't." "Good guy." "Cheese and crackers!" "Look!" "You want your duckling back?" "Here it is." "Psych!" "That'll teach you to match wits with us, you stupid mother duck!" "Bart, can't you do something?" "Those bullies are gonna kill me!" "Why am I doing this?" "Please, give me a break." "Give me the duckling without beating me up." "Well, we'll have to beat you up a little." "Come on." "I'm trying to impress a girl." "So are we." "Either the duck suffers or the kid does." "Or none of you's getting nothing from Shauna." "I'm Shauna." "Bart, if those ducklings understood how magnificent you were, they'd stop biting your leg." "We believe Lisa is suffering from Environment Related Despair." "It's even worse when you know it has a name." "Now don't worry, she'll be fine after years of expensive treatment." "And, we have a new drug to combat this syndrome:" "Ignorital." "Let me show you how Ignorital works." "It turns this... to this." "Lisa's a little young to be taking "happy pills."" "Marge, we came to an appointment in the middle of the day!" "That's the most a parent can do." " We done here?" " Go ahead... numb me." "Mom, can I get those dishes for you?" " What's your angle, mister?" " No angle." "If this girl I'm seeing comes here, and she might," "I wouldn't mind if you told her I was the kind of boy that does the dishes." "Yeah, busboys get all the chicks." "Well, off to school where they'll prepare our little minds for a future we'll never see." "Sounds like someone's got a case of the Mondays." "I'm going to Dizzyland." "So, this is setting the table!" "If I'd known how easy this was, I'd have just done it, instead of throwing all those tantrums." "Bart, I don't care that this is just an act." "You've finally become the boy every mother dreams of." "A girl." "You never told me that the "special" man you were working with is your father." "It's not an easy thing to admit." "Is the rest of your family... okay?" "Well..." "Hello, Smiley Face." "Hello, Smiley Face!" "Officer down." "Jenny, it's amazing what you've done with my son." "Well, I think Bart is an incredible combination of Habitat For Humanity and the Jonas Brothers." "And nothing can ever change my opinion about him." "We don't have any money!" "Go away!" "May I de-corn your cob, my darling?" "Why didn't you come to visit me, Bart?" "Yeah, I meant to, I've just been so busy." "My schedule has been all like... "Rooo!"" "But what could be more important than your best friend?" "Who's this, Bart?" "I see how it is." "Actually, I don't." "My glasses are fogged." "I learned some great new swear words from my uncle." "He's got a broken back, so he's in constant pain." "Bart?" "Would you be interested in swears?" "Yes, because only by knowing them can you prevent bad little kids from saying them." "What do you want?" "I want to know why my best friend didn't visit me like he said he would." "Milhouse, real best friends often don't speak for years at a time." "Like John Adams and Thomas Jefferson." "Just because you saw one episode of one mini-series doesn't mean you get to use it as a whip." "Look, man, I have to keep my dark past hidden." "There's someone new in my life, now." "I get it." "It's love." " I guess you found your Abigail Adams." " My who?" "So I'll be on my way." "I can see I'm the fifth wheel on this bicycle with training wheels." "But the next time I see you two," "I might not be able to hold my tongue." "It's really quite difficult." "Reverend, care for some of my devils food cake?" "Is that really devils food?" "No, it's angel food with chocolate on top." "I knew it." "Sorry I'm late." "I didn't realize you had to turn the oven on to bake stuff." "So, Jenny, I hear you're religious." "Know what my favorite book of the Bible is?" "Revelations." "Mine, too." "Bart, we should take Milhouse on our trip to juice country." "Are you nuts?" "Milhouse will spill everything." "By which I mean juice, not secrets." "Yeah, you guys don't want me there." "But I'm sure we'll see each other soon." "Bart, you look tense." "Have a cookie." "If you don't stop smiling, you're gonna get a kiss." "That's it!" "We're getting you off the meds." "We should be safe from Milhouse, here." "Being at sea level gives him nosebleeds." "Milhouse is funny." "The way he's always shaking me by the shoulders and saying:" ""I don't know the real you."" "Funny." "I'm tired of talking about Milhouse." "Hello, Bart." "Surprised to see me at sea level?" "You can't bleed out your nose when your heart's broken." "Milhouse, could you stop being creepy for just a minute?" "Jenny, do you see how the dolphin in that tank seems to shy away from Bart?" "Why might that be?" "I can't take the pressure anymore." "I have to come clean." "I'm only pretending to be good." "Before I met you, I was El Barto, Skinner's Bane, the Sultan of Spitwads, the Dean of D-minus, the Ay Carumba Kid!" "But now, I'm good because you turned me good." "Isn't that all that matters?" "Are you saying our entire relationship is based on lies?" "Not our entire relationship." "Just the stuff I said." "I can't believe she dumped me." "Son, girls come and go." "But you'll always have your family!" "I know, I know!" " Hit me again, 'Pu."

"No, not that." "No, no, no." "I met someone, and, you know, we had a nice time." "That's all there is to it." " What, you're not gonna see him again?" " Maybe I will and maybe I won't." " You can do that?" " Apparently, I can." "Oh, crap." "Here comes Sad Dad." " Sad Dad?" " Yeah, that's the other side of divorce." "His wife left him three years ago for her personal trainer."

"That's because I put my spaghetti pot on it." "I make a good sauce." "I take a jar of Paul Newman's, and I add..." "[SHUTS OFF MACHINE]" " Wait." "What happened?" " I slept with him." "No, with the sauce." "What did he add?" "I picked the worst person to have a one-night stand with." "He's a parent at Ritchie's school." "He's depressed, he's needy." "Well, it sounds like you two have a lot in common." "What was I thinking, going to the supermarket picking up a random guy for sex?" "Yeah." "Out loud, it sounds foolproof." "[PHONE RINGING]" "Oh, this is awful." "Sad Dad isn't going away." "Sad Dad?" "That's sweet, you guys already have pet names for each other." " Shut up, Matthew." "You gotta help me." " Pick up the phone and tell him the truth." "He was a one-night stand, and you never wanna see him again." "No." "I'm gonna handle this my way." "I'll cut my bangs and eat a Dove bar and go to bed." "[RINGING STOPS]" "Hey, do you hear that?" "He must have gotten the message." "[CELL PHONE RINGING]" "[WHISPERING] Christine." "Um, I think the guy that you..."

"So have a seat." "Wow, I haven't been in a gym in a long time." "Not since my wife left me for her trainer." "It's okay, though." "It's been great for my daughter." "She loves her new dad, and she's in the best shape of her life." "Look, uh, Stan." "The other night, I was in a particularly vulnerable place and, um, I think what happened between us was a little quick." "Oh, I know." "Sorry again." "Oh, no, no, no." "L..." "I-I mean that, I think we should go back to being friends." "Yeah, but we were never friends." "Well, maybe we should go back to being pre-friends you know, like the way we were last week." " But we didn't know each other last week." " Perfect." "Are you breaking up with me?" "In a gym?" "I can't believe this is happening again." "Stan, I am so sorry." "I really am." "You're such a nice man, and I actually did have a great time the other night but I'm just not looking for a relationship right now." "I mean, the truth is, I haven't had sex in three years." "Really?" "You wouldn't know it, the way you jumped right back in with the dirty talk." "Okay." "Now, look, Stan." "Listen, you were my one under the belt, okay?" "A fling." "All right?" "But it's over." "It's finished." "Wow." "That's too bad, because I really like you." "You're so foxy and nice." "I even made you this mix tape." "Oh, you remembered my favorite band is Supertramp." "Well, I slept with him again." "And it was even worse this time." "Because he made me feel so self-conscious about the dirty talk." "Hi, I'm your brother and I think you remember your ex-husband, Richard." "Yeah, Matthew was just filling me in." "He didn't mention the dirty talk." "I didn't even know about the dirty talk." "Now I gotta go call Mom back." "Don't." "Don't." " I can't believe Matthew told you." " Don't blame Matthew." "I already heard about it." "It's all over school." "The fourth graders are doing their class project on it." "Christine, what are you doing?" "I don't know." "It was our conversation the other day, okay?" "You're right." "I haven't had sex in three years, you know?" "And you can get completely out of the habit of it, you see?" "And before you know it, your neck muscles are straining and your eyes are doing all these crazy things." "So you went out and picked up the first guy you saw?" "He wasn't the first." "The first three said no." "Wow, it's like a romance novel." "He said I was foxy." "When I say it out loud it doesn't really seem like a good enough reason to sleep with somebody but it was 10:00 at night, on the sidewalk in front of a grocery store." "You know, I was all good to go." "Please don't tell me any more, mother of my child." "And then I tried to break up with him today, but he made me a mix tape." " Supertramp?" " Oh." "They are so good." "I mean, I know it sounds a little pitiful, but it was my first time out there and I just..." "I wasn't sure if anybody was gonna want me." "Are you kidding?" "Christine, you're incredibly sexy." "In fact, sometimes I still scream out your name during sex." "Oh, you do?" "Oh, shut up." "She has my same name." " God." " That..." "That's true." " But I still think you're sexy." " Ugh." "Yeah, whatever." "Anyway, I got one under my belt, okay?" "I feel good." "Now I can move on." "[PHONE RINGING]" " You gonna get that?" " No." "[GRO ANS]" "Oh, this is ridiculous." "I gotta do this." "Sorry, it does that sometimes." "My wife got the good car." "So how you doing?" "Well, Stan, we need to talk." "I know." "I can't do this anymore." " What?" " You're nice and sweet, Christine but I just don't think this is working out for me." "What?" "Why?" "Well, you know, I haven't been around much and I think you just might be a little too fast for me." "Fast?" "It's been three years." "I got a kid that goes to this school." "I gotta think of my reputation." "Your reputation?" "If anything, I helped your reputation." "Getting some of this is the best thing that ever happened to you." "Hey, don't you roll your window up at me." "You dig me, you know it." "You made me a mix tape." "Oh." "My stomach hurts." " No, I would die." " Oh." "[ENGLISH SDH]"

"Meg." "Come meet Meg." "He's a little shy." "He's a great kid." "Active imagination." "Probably could take care of himself." "So, he could pretty much watch and eat whatever he wants."

"Do you wanna try me?" "I'm really easy to talk to." "Would you like to come out so I can introduce myself?" " Okay." " Okay." "Great." "Could you move away from the door, please?" "Yeah, sure." "(door opens)" "Hi, I'm Ralph." "Meg." "Nice to meet you." "Nice to meet you, too." "I can explain." "Okay." "It's just that Ralphie has a bit of a temper." " Ralphie?" " Yes, Ralphie."

"'Cause he's kind of bad." "But don't worry, that's why I locked him in the bathroom." "He won't bother us." "Well, good." "Why don't you and I just forget about Ralphie and have some fun?" " You hungry?" " Yes." "Man on TV:" "Well, you can't blame Grace." "You know what I mean?" "(continues indistinctly)" "(audience laughing)" "I actually kind of like this show."

"He won't be back soon." " Of course he will." " No, he won't." "He's out on a date." "Okay, so?" "So, when he goes out on dates, he stays out really late." "Well, he told me he was coming back by 10:00 PM." "He says a lot of things." "Not all of them are true." "Well, either way, I think that you should have a bath before bedtime." "I don't wanna take a bath." "Why not?" "Because Ralphie's in there." "Ah." "Ralphie, right." "You forgot, didn't you?" "I did." "I never forget about Ralphie." "Would you like me to go have a talk with Ralphie and ask him if it's okay if you could have a bath?" "I don't think that's a good idea." "Why not?" "Because he doesn't like girls." " He doesn't?" " No." "Hmm." " How do you know?" " I just know." " What?" " I have an idea." "Okay." " Oh, Ralphie!" "I know..." " Shh!" "Hey!" "That's not okay." " Shh." "Quiet." " What?" " You're gonna wake up Ralphie." " I was just making a joke." "Well, it's not funny." "Ralph, come on." "We both know that there is no one in the bathroom." "Damn it." " What?" " He heard you."

"Let's just close our eyes and get back to sleep, okay, Ralph?" " But I can't sleep." " Yes, you can." "It's way past your bedtime and your dad's gonna be home any minute." "No, he won't." "Why do you keep saying that?" "So, you don't have kids?" "No, I don't." "I think you'd be a great mom." "Thanks, Ralph." "Now, let's just get back to bed." "But I wanna talk." "It's just so late." "Please?" "I never get to talk to any girls, and you're so nice." "Fine." "Five minutes." "Yes!" "What do you wanna talk about?" "Sex." "Where did you hear that word?" "My dad." "I think it's something that you should talk to your dad about." "I already did." "And what did he say?" "That it's for grown-ups." "That's definitely true." "And that he'll tell me when I get older." "I think that sounds right." "Maybe we just leave it at that." "But I always hear him talking about it with his friends, about how he has sex with all the girls he goes on dates with." "And I don't know what it is and he won't tell me." "Please tell me." "I just don't think that it's my place to talk to you about that sort of thing." " Why not?" " Well, I'm not your parent." "But my dad won't tell me and I don't have a mom." "What happened to your mom, sweetie?" "She's... gone." "Where did she go?" "It's hard to explain." "Well, you don't have to talk about it if you don't want to." "No, it's okay." "I wanna talk about it." "It's just, well... there's the story me and my dad always tell, and then there's what really happened." "What do you mean?" "My dad." "He made up a story and that's the one we tell." "But it's not the truth." "(inhales, exhales)" "You know what, I think our five minutes of talking are up, so maybe you should try to get back to bed now, okay?" "Can I just tell you the story that my dad made up first?" "And then I'll go to sleep." " Ralph." " Please?" "And then you promise me you'll get back to bed?" "I promise." "Pinkie swear?" "Pinkie swear." "(sighs) All right." "So, one day, I was waiting for my mom to pick me up for school." "And she didn't come." "And when my dad finally came, he bought me a Happy Meal, which he never does before." "And he told me that Mom was going through a hard time and that... she was so sad, she wanted to escape everything." "So she put a rope in her closet and she put her..." "She put her neck in it." "And when she jumped, she kind of..." "She hung there until she couldn't breathe anymore." "And she escaped everything." "Ralph, sweetie, I'm..." "I'm so sorry." "You don't have to be sorry." "It's just a story." "You mean that that was...?" "It wasn't real." "(sighs)" "Okay, then." "Well, thanks for the story." "Now, let's just get to bed." " But..." " No, remember, you promised." "One story and you were gonna go to bed." "Okay, fine." "Good night, Ralph." "Sleep well." "_" "_" "(sighs)" "The true story is that Ralphie killed my mom." "Ralph, I told you that we were not going to play this game anymore." "Shh!" "If Ralphie hears me telling you this, he's gonna get very angry." "Ralph, I understand that you're having a hard time and that this game might be whatever for you, but you're starting to scare me!" "(whispering) He scares me every day." "He killed my mom and he says I'm gonna be next." "He chases me around my room at night saying, "I'm gonna get you."" " Ralph, stop it!" " Shh!" " (gasps) Stop this!" " He'll hear you!"

"Then how come it's in my bag?" "I'm coming to get it." "Wasting your time, man." "I'm almost there already." "Well, I'm right behind you." "Yo, it isn't yours, it's mine now." "Like your girlfriend." "Oh, I'm getting worried, dude." "Real concerned." "It's been a couple of days." "Manny's a gentleman, but Manny's got appetites." "Click!" "Asshole." "No, no, no, sweetheart." "Think Gandhi, not Sitting Bull." "Boom!" "Yes, I'm already on it." "Sweetheart, I gotta go." "Security Courier." " Get line two a 20 on Squid." " Got it." "I'm right here." "Goddamn radio got run over." "Raj." "What the hell, man." "Manny jumped my route?" "Is it so?" "Yes, it's so." "You shouldn't try to be Zen, dude." "You're wearing a gold chain." "Tito, my midtown monster, slow and steady comes in last." "You get passed by a hot dog cart today?" "The pedals turn, Raj." "Not just the left one, but the right one, too." "I have no idea what he's talking about." "The words he says, they don't go together to create meaning in a traditional sense, but I believe it is profound." "Hey, I'm light." "You got anything else today?" " I need another job." " The pedals turn, my friend, the pedals turn." " That doesn't mean anything." " Well, Tito said it, not me." "No hello?" "Hey, Vanessa, I hope you're gonna fix that wheel and get back out there." "Yep." "Why didn't you call me back?" "I don't have anything else to say." "Okay, I know you're not about to kiss me right now." "Why?" "You don't want me to?" "My hand to God, I don't." "Then why did your back just arch?" " It did not." " Yes, it did." " Nope." " Like it always does." " See, you did it again." " Stop!" " Really?" "Come on." " No." "Okay." "Ride safe." "Security Courier." "Yo, Nima, what's up?" "Yeah, he's here." "Where we going?" "Okay." "Okay." "All right." "Great." "Got it." "Wilee, you're in luck." "Your alma mater summons." "116th Street entrance, law school main office, drop is in Chinatown." "I need you south of Pell in 90 minutes." "Let's go." "You're getting 50 for that run at least." "Give me 40." "Forget it." "Tito." "Never mind." "Marco." "Polo." "I got a nice long run for you guys." " Can't do it." " Why not?" " Gotta get hammered." " Fair enough." "Come on, man." "I'm tired, I'm hungry, my day is taking a turn for the shitty, give me the 40." "I'll give you 30." "Don't screw it up." "It's premium rush." "Hey, Wilee." "You and me, man!" "Central Park." "Just one lap." "Straight up bicycle race." "No whale riding, no bumper surfing, none-a your alleycat bullshit." "I'll kick your ass, man." "Have you seen my thighs?" "Have you seen my thighs?" "What do you want?" "So you into Spandex now?" "On your right!" "God, can you forget about Manny?" "He's just helping me move." "Move?" "What, you guys are moving?" " No, I'm moving, she's staying." " Why?" "I don't wanna talk about it." "She wants me out by the end of the day." "What, did you get into a fight with her, too?" "I'll call you back." "Shit." "Hey, walk that thing!" "Wilee?" "It is you." "Hey, man." "Hey, what you been up to, man?" "You know, running reds, killing peds." "I heard you never took the bar." "It's on my list." "Don't stress about it." "Hey, they say if you snort some Ritalin, it's a cakewalk." "Sage advice, Mr Hand." "Hey, Nima." "They didn't tell me it was you who called." "That it?" "It must be there by 7:00." "Deliver only to Sister Chen." "Where am I going?" "Chinatown. 147, Doyers." "Is that going to be difficult?" "Would be for some." " It's a tiny street, very hard to see..." " I'll find it." "Time is now 5:33." "Sign here and print your name under it, please." "You okay?" "I heard you got roommate troubles." "I feel bad, I kinda hooked you guys up." "Deliver only to Sister Chen." "It must be there by 7:00." "It's extremely important." "Always is." "Gonna need the envelope." "Thanks." "Have a nice day." "Hey!" "Hey, there you are." "Hey!" "Hey, excuse me, messenger guy." "That envelope you picked up, I gotta ask for it back." " Who are you?" " Forrest J. Ackerman." "Head of campus security." "The woman who gave you the envelope, she's not authorized to use the school account." "It's an internal matter I've been investigating." "Not your problem." "Can I have the envelope, please?" "Yeah, the thing is, once it goes in the bag, it's gotta stay in the bag unless I hear from a dispatcher." "Fine." "Call him." "I'll talk to him." "I got the receipt right here." " Nima gave that to you?" " Who?" "Nima." "You don't know the name of the woman you're investigating?" "Yeah." "Nima, right." "I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you." "Your mouth was full." "Thing is, man, company I work for, it's called "Security Courier."" "The "Security" part means that once people give us their shit, we don't just hand it out to random strangers on the street, so..." "Listen, I just spent $7 on this delicious urban food log, so if you'd step aside and let me eat, that'd be great." "What's your name?" " Wilee." " Wilee." "Wile E?" "Like the coyote?" " That's cute." " Thanks." "You got a real name?" "A girlfriend?" "Family?" "People who give a shit if they see you again?" "Who are you, man?" "I'm the guy you don't fuck with." "Hold my log." "Hey!" "Have a nice day, douche bag!" "Okay." "I just wanted to say I was sorry." "That thing was important to me." "Maybe that doesn't mean shit to you..." "No, it means something to me." "I just forgot, that's all." "Okay, I get it." "Look, this is three sorrys now." "It's actually only two." "Well, you hung up on one of 'em, so that's on you." "I don't get it." "Honestly?" "Watch it!" "Excuse me." "I just don't get it." "I mean, you have opportunity and all that brain and you throw it away." "Look, why are we having this conversation?" "You get it." "You ride like I do." "No, I ride, but not like you, Wilee." "I put a brake on my bike and I use it." "Yeah, and that brake's gonna get you killed." "You should get rid of that." "The worst shit that ever happened to me happened when I had a brake." "Brakes are death." "You know what'?" "That thing you say, it's not as cute any more." "You could have any job you want." "When I see a guy in a grey business suit, my age, makes my balls shrivel up into my abdomen." "Whatever." "Hi, Alonzo." "We get paid to ride." "What could be better than that?" "Do you know why I ride?" "Because I hate waiting tables." "Thank you." "Look, I'm sorry that I didn't come to your school thing." "But what do you want me to do about it right now?" "My "school thing"?" "It was graduation and you blew it off for a race." "Look, I know it took me eight years to get my degree, but I'm gonna get a decent job and sit behind a desk all day." "I don't need anyone in my life telling me that it's meaningless 'cause it means something to me." "And I need to know that I can count on you." "Hello?" " I gotta go." " Of course you do." "I'm gonna call you back." "Hey, what?" "Douche bag?" "What the hell's the matter with you?" "Come on, son, this is silly." "You're gonna skin your knee." "I think I'll be all right." "Thank you, though." "Just pull over, right up here." "Come on." "You're a very uncooperative guy, you know that'?" " Come on, give it to me!" " No!" "You take care now!" "Shit!" "Shit." "I'm chasing a bicycle." "Jesus." "Tricky." " You moron!" " You're right!" " You maniac!" " Sorry!" "My fault!" "Hey!" "Give me the envelope!" "What?" " You can hear me, you little shit." " Sorry, I can't hear you!" "What's it to you?" "Come on!" "Give me the goddamn envelope!" "That?" "No." "No, no, no." "I just wish they wouldn't ride on the sidewalk, you know?" "I mean, look, I understand you've got a job to do." "Excuse me!" "Hey, hey!" "Hey, hey, hey!" "Slow down!" "Now, see'?" "I told you this wouldn't end well for you." "Where'd you go?" "Hey!" "Come here!" "Hey!" "Yo, you crazy?" "NYPD!" "I wanna talk to you for a minute!" "Great." "Hey!" "Pull over!" "Hey!" "Delinquent scum!" "Red shirt on the bicycle!" "NYPD!" "You just caused an accident back there!" "Pull over!" "Come on." "Oh, shit!" "My baby!" "Shit." "You little shit." " Thanks for helping me with this." " You know I'm always there for you." "Well, I couldn't have done it on my own, so thanks." "Look, it's none of my business, but you know you saved yourself a lot of heartache breaking up with the Coyote Man." "I mean, seriously, you know, he's crazy." "And it's not like he's some great cyclist or something." "I mean, he's just got a death wish, that's all." "That's no skill." "Only reason he beats me in alleycats is 'cause the man got a mental instability." "I mean, all that fixie bullshit." "You know, the no brakes, no gears." " That's ridiculous." " Yeah, I hear ya." "Look, think about it, okay?" "He's broke his left collarbone twice." "Got a couple concussions, a pin in his wrist." "That's when he was doing all that trick stuff." "He's not into that any more." "Okay, sure, but the way he rides." "What does that tell you'?" "How much he loves it, I guess." "Then he's got him some confused priorities, babe." "Yeah." "No, Manny." "Hey, my roommate's in some kind of trouble and she won't text me back." "Can you just drop me off over on Broadway?" "Please?" "I gotta go find her." " Okay, okay." "Okay." " Thanks." "Jesus." "Shit." " This douche bag tried to..." " I can hear you." "Sorry." "Guy tried to rob me and run me over with his car." " Are you injured?" " No." " You wanna file a complaint?" " No, I want him arrested." "It's like attempted vehicular manslaughter, or whatever." "Is it, Your Honor?" "Have a seat, someone will be right out to take your statement." "I also have a picture of his license plate number." "That's fantastic." "Have a seat, someone will be right with you." "Thank you for your concern." "Holy moly." "Hey." "What do ya know?" "Detective Monday graces us with his presence." "Yeah." "I'm sorry I'm late." "Your wife had a lot of unusual requests." " Yeah'?" "She still got that rash?" " Yeah." "I worked around it." "What's the matter with your face, Monday?" "Goddamn tooth went abscess on me, vicious little bastard." "I go to the dentist, son of a bitch got me in the waiting room an hour and a half." "Finally, he sits me in the chair, takes one look at it..." "Yanks it right out of my head." "Can you believe it?" "Yeah, that's why I'm late." "Oh, yeah." "Yeah." "Got you now, sucker." "Monster hand, monster hand." "Jesus, you're kidding me!" "Goddamn shit!" "No!" "Next time better luck, Bobby, huh?" "Not bad hand, not bad hand." "Almost, Bobby." "Everything okay, Bobby?" "It's great." "I just gotta get to work is all." "Same old, same old." "Mr Monday, Mr Sunday." "Rebuy." "Hello?" "Rebuy." " Let me get you a Coke, Bobby." " No, thank you." " I need five grand." "What's the problem?" " It's up to 17." "Which happens to be my lucky number." "This isn't your game, man." "Anglos don't have the math for Pai Gow." " Mr Lin thinks..." " What does Mr Lin think?" "He can't get shut down 'cause a cop owes him a few dollars?" " Come on, you don't wanna talk like that." " 72nd Street." "Brooklyn Players." "They all went down eventually." "They all go down, Charlie Chan." " Maybe you need to go get some fresh air." " You take a walk in the park!" "I want a rebuy!" "Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry." "Sorry." "Sorry." "Look, if you really need cash..." " I shouldn't be telling you this." " What?" "You know that bitch snakehead my sister works for?" " Yeah." " She said they got a serious ticket coming down from a hawaladar in Morningside, tonight." " How much is it worth?" " Fifty grand." "And that ticket is as good as cash." "If you get a hold of that thing and bring it here, your money problems with us are over." "Maybe I take a little finder's fee, let's just say a third." "Mr Lin gets the rest, and you're even." "What do I look like, a change-snatcher to you?" "I'm a cop." "I look like a purse-pincher, a goddamn mugger?" "I'm just trying to help you out." "You don't wanna do that, then be a big boy, go to the Shy, borrow what you gotta borrow." " Mr Lin gets his 17, you're right back in." " Yeah." " What's the vig?" " Twenty points." " That's ridiculous." " Don't take it." " From our friends in Ozone Park?" " You wish." " Brighton Beach." " Shit." "Seriously, don't take it." "Give it to me." "Hey, where you going?" " He took it across the street." " I have now seen it all." "Look at that sick bastard." "Come on." "Yeah, come on, come on." "Are you sure you want to put that all in one hand?" "Yeah, I'm sure." "Come on." "This is the one." "Let's see, what do we got here?" "What do we got?" "Keep your eyes to yourself, all right, buddy?" "I'm not done." "Six plus seven is shit!" "Six plus five is shit." "Eight plus five is six..." "ls seven..." "ls shit." "It's all shit, no matter how you add it up." "Yeah." "Whatever, whatever." "Thanks a lot." " That a Chinese phone book?" " Yeah." "Don't stop yet." "Why, you getting tired?" "Hey, wait a minute." "Wait." "Tired, my ass." "What..." "That..." "That's my tooth!" "You piece of shit!" "I said nothing permanent!" "Hey, I'm talking to you!" "Get over here!" "There are goddamn rules about this shit!" "Okay?" "You think it doesn't apply?" "I'll take a lump or two if I cross the line, but you think I'm gonna grow new teeth at my age?" " Mr Lin..." " Mr Lin!" "Hey!" "What?" "Is Mr Lin in charge?" "Is Mr Lin President of the United States?" "Let me tell ya something, boys." "I am a cop!" "You do not do this!" "Hey." "Come on, it wasn't that bad." "He'll be all right." "Come on." "Come on, papi." "Yeah, there you go." "See?" "Get your buddy to Bellevue." "Fourteen minutes." "I timed it." "That's how long it took you to soak yourself in gasoline and set it on fire." "That ticket you were talking about?" "I think I'm gonna need the address." "Yeah, the goddamn dentist." "Is that a good enough reason for you?" "Two hours in the chair." "Can you believe it?" "Well, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do." "I'm gonna go get my morphine." "I'll be right back." " You know, I've been thinking about firemen." " What about 'em?" "They hang out together, you know, they work out." "They cook pasta." "Pose for calendars." " What are you talking about?" " We should do that." "I'm not posing for any calendar." "No towels?" "Depressing." " Hey, look who's here, Lance Armstrong." " Hey, what's up?" " Hey, guys." " Hold up a minute." " What's up?" " What happened to you?" "I just got my ass kicked by a kid on a bicycle." " Jesus, you okay?" " I'm all right." "Monday, come on, we gotta see that guy." "Yeah, all right." "Monday, seriously, we gotta go." "Let's go." "You talk to him this time." "He responds to you better." "Really?" "I don't know why." "I can't stand the guy." "Yeah, but he doesn't know that." "Monday, are you coming?" "Yeah, I..." "I forgot my bullets." "I'll meet you guys there, okay?" "Who forgets their bullets?" "Monday." "Shit." "Hey, red shirt!" "NYPD!" "Come on, dude." "Oh, really?" "I'm working on it." " The guy's dead." " What?" "The guy you beat up, Bobby." "He didn't even make the ride to the hospital." "You got a real knack for making it worse, you know that?" "God damn it." "I'll make amends." "Start with the money." "Get that ticket." "Bring it to Mr Lin's shop on 28th." "You got one hour." "Heads up." "Look out, look out." "Outta the way." "Police!" "On your left, lady, look out!" "Jesus Christ." "What do you want me to do?" "Hello, everybody!" "Stand still!" "Lady, stand still!" "You're good." "There you go." "Police!" "Coming through." "Lady, please." "Heads up, man." "Whoa, buddy!" "Oh, my God!" "Stop already!" "You're making it worse for yourself, I swear to God!" "Keep the kids back!" "Keep 'em back!" "NYPD!" "No!" "God damn it!" "Mister!" "That way!" "Get your arms inside the bus!" "Dispatch." "What did you do to me, man?" "What the hell am I carrying?" "Wilee?" "Where are you?" "I do not carry drug shit, or whatever the hell this is!" "It's not drugs." "It can't be drugs." "It's from a highly respected East Coast college." " It's probably drugs." " Yep." "Listen to me." "I almost got my ass killed three times in the last 20 minutes!" "And it wasn't my fault!" "Is somebody messing with you?" "You need backup?" "No." "I just wanna get rid of the thing." "Well, I got nobody else." "The only person here is Tito, and I can't send him that far north." "The guy's like 98 years old." "No of fence." "Dude, just call the college and tell them I'm bringing the package back, okay?" "I'm done with it." "No, no, don't take it back!" "Come on!" "Wilee..." "Manny." "Just the person I need to see." "What's up?" "Yeah, hello." "I'm calling about an order you just picked up." "Order number?" "Yep, yep, got it right here. 2231970." "Yeah, that's it." "I'm gonna need to change the delivery address on that envelope." "Yeah." "Me, I'm Forrest J. Ackerman, Dean of Students." "I've got that appointment now." "I'll see you in a bit." "Okay." " Hi." " Hey." "I'm almost done." "My friend borrowed a truck to help me move, so I'll be outta here by 6:00." "Thank you." "I'm sorry it is so sudden." "You will be all right?" "Yeah." "I'm staying with my aunt until I find a place." "Okay, good." "I still don't get what happened." "Did I do something to piss you off or something?" "No, I told you, it's a private matter." "Okay." "Excuse me, I have some things to take care of." " Where'd you get all that?" " This is my business." " Better for you to stay out of it." " Are you going out with that'?" "'Cause this is New York City, you can't walk around with all that money." " Where are you going?" " Down the street." " Where?" " The nail salon." "The nail salon?" "This is something I have to do." "I don't have a choice." "Okay." "I'm coming with you." "No, thank you." "Mr Leung?" " NYPD." " Yeah?" "You got a minute?" "Count it." "A lot of money for a young lady." "Took me two years." "I work three jobs." "American dream, huh?" "Is to work three jobs?" "These days, yes." "You speak Mandarin?" "Yes." "If you lose the ticket I cannot give you back the money." "You understand?" "This ticket now is money." "For whoever holds it." "If you have problems you don't call the police you call this number." "The Hawala system settles its own problems." "This money is for a snakehead?" " Yes." " Which one?" "Sister Chen." "She won't take cash." "She sent me to you." "Did you tell anyone you were coming here?" "Only my friend." "This city is not your village." "Many people would rob you if they know what you have." "My friend wouldn't tell anyone." "If she did they may be watching for you." "Can someone else deliver the ticket for you?" "Someone they won't recognize?" "I don't know." "Think about it." "May the Buddha watch over you." "Hey!" "Security Courier." "Yo, Nima." "What's up?" "I have a pickup from our office." "It will be ready in about 10 minutes." "Is Wilee available?" "Yeah, he's here." "Where we going?" "Okay." "Okay, all right." "Great." "Got it." "Wilee, you're in luck." "Your alma mater summons." "Come on!" "Good to see you, too." "Excuse me." "Damn." "Damn it." " Hey." "Excuse me." " Yeah." "NYPD." "I'm looking for a young Asian woman, about 22, 23, blue shirt, black pants." "She just walked by a minute ago." " Know where I can find her?" " Let me think." "Yeah, I do." "Hey, walk that thing!" "Yeah, I believe so." "Thanks." "Have a nice day." "Hey!" "Hey, there you are." "Hey, there." "Forrest J. Ackerman, Internal Revenue Service, Wire Fraud Investigation Unit." "Yes?" "Now, young lady, you realize this system of money transfer you're participating in circumvents about 18 different United States banking regulations?" " I'm not sure I understand." " Relax." "It's not you that's facing jail time." "At least I don't think so." "These hawaladars are known to prey on unsuspecting illegal immigrants." " I'm not illegal." " We don't have to get into that." " I have a student visa." " With you?" "At home." "See, it's supposed to be with you at all times." "Yeah, you leave it at home, that's a good way to get yourself deported." "But we don't have to go down to Immigration and talk about that now." "That's totally unnecessary." "We need to settle it right here." "I just need to see the envelope the hawaladar gave you." "Please." "I don't understand." "What don't you understand?" "Why someone who says he's an IRS agent has a New York City police detective's badge." "Come over here." "Okay." "What are you doing?" "Let me go!" "Okay, smarty-pants." "You know what the HR shrink said I have?" "Impulse control issues." "Like you need a college degree to figure that out." "I'm telling you this so you know that it's in your best interest not to lie to me or waste my time, but give me the goddamn envelope." "Please." "Before I lose my shit and rip your throat out." "Clear enough?" "What's that?" "What did you do?" "Damn it." "Damn it." "Hey!" "Excuse me!" "Messenger guy!" "That envelope you just picked up?" "I'm gonna have to ask for that back." "What are you doing here?" " What is up with you?" " Nothing." "Well, that doesn't look like nothing." "It's my problem." "It's personal." "Did that cop find you?" "You saw him?" "What did you tell him?" "He said there were some people planning to rob you and he was trying to stop it." "He wanted to help you." " Yes, he helped me very much." " What's going on?" " You're no friend." "We are not friends." " Yes, we are." "I told you one thing, and you almost ruined it all." "I'll take care of myself." "Nima." "You gotta start trusting somebody." "Please, tell me." "What's going on?" "Wilee?" "What are you doing here?" "Nima." "You can't have delivered already, it's not possible." "You know what?" "It's really uncool to let a messenger service deliver your illegal bullshit." " Where is my envelope?" " It's hard enough out there." " Where is it?" " I gave it back to the front desk." "Did a messenger just come by and drop off an envelope?" "Yeah, and another one just came and picked it up." "Who told them to change the address?" "Hey." "You get your envelope back?" "Someone else come and pick it up?" "But it's going to the wrong place." "What?" "Why?" "What do you care?" "So, what was that thing I was carrying?" "It's like a receipt for a great deal of money." "What's the money for?" "A she-tou." "A snakehead." " What's that?" " It's a kind of importer." "Right." "So you're involved in some kind of drug thing?" "No." "What are you "importing"?" "My son." "I came to this country on a student visa." "He was to come right after me." "It is not illegal." "He can travel on my visa." "But then an article I wrote about Tibet a long time ago was posted on the Internet." "For the past years they have not let him leave China." "So I have to get him out another way." "Because I will have my son." "Why'd you have to go and ask for me?" "Vanessa always said you was the best at what you do." "She says maybe she can never count on you, but at work, there's no one better." "She said that?" "Is it true?" "Can I count on you?" "Let me see the name on the sheet." "How come you don't answer my calls?" "Because I got a business to run." "What do you want?" "You picked up an envelope from Nima at the college office at 5:30." "Where is it?" "Jesus, what is it with this envelope?" "People love it, they hate it, they gotta have it, they gotta get rid of it." "It's like cigarettes or Democrats." "Where is the opener?" "Who's got it, Raj?" "Your boy Wilee pussied out." "He said he was taking it back." "So it's back at the school?" "Negativo." "Somebody called to change the drop-off address." "Why are there a million tools in here and nothing to open a beer?" " A man or a woman?" " That would be a dude." "So who's gonna pick it up?" "I gave it to Manny." "Shit." "Which way are you going, you roided-out freak'?" "Really?" "Hey, where are you?" "Corner of Broadway and Kiss My Ass." "What do you want?" "Need that envelope you just got." "Oh, do you really?" "Yeah, seriously." "You don't know what it is." "I know exactly what it is, 50 bucks if I get it there by 7:00." "What, you're getting 50?" "Raj is only giving me 30!" "Yeah, speed costs money, pussy!" "Pull over and give it to me, man!" "I'll explain later." "Okay, pussy, I'll wait right here." "There, I just stopped at 112th." "Bullshit, dude, I can hear the wind." "You're still moving." "Yeah, Manny rides fast!" "You should try it, it feels good!" "Hello?" "Asshole!" " Wilee?" " Now you want to talk?" "This whole thing is my fault." "You're hard to keep track of." "I accept your apology." "Can I call you back?" "That envelope Nima gave you is for her kid." "She has a kid." " I know." "I just talked to her." " Well, do you still have it?" "I'm chasing it down Broadway right now." "I really gotta call you back." "Manny is taking it to the wrong people." "I tried to call him, but he won't pick up." "I'm on it." "I'll get him." "No, it's my fault." "You don't need to get involved." " Well, it's on my way home anyway." " Just tell me where you are." "Baby, this situation sucks." "I don't want you anywhere near it." "Hey, Jersey, you wanna move your fat-ass SUV!" "You know how sexy you are when you talk like that'?" " Wilee." " I'll call you when I deliver." " Wait!" " Count on it." "Shit." "Hey, Wilee, I got an idea." "Why don't you race me for it?" "You get to 28th Street before I do, I'll give you the envelope." "We'll go through the park." "Enter on 106." "I don't have time for this bullshit, man." "You don't got the legs for it, man." "And that steel pig you're riding ain't gonna help you neither." "Be like me, baby." "Parlee, custom-cut carbon fiber!" "I am begging you." "My bike fits me like a Naturalamb, son." "Just listen for one second." "See you in the park." " Manny!" " Peace!" "God damn it." "Okay." "You wanna race, let's race." "Dispatch." "Raj, I need that address you sent Manny to right now." "Manny?" "Come on." "Don't the three of you ever get tired of this Real World shit you keep playing?" "Raj!" "Manny, Wilee, Wilee, Manny." "When does Raj get to climb Mount Vanessa?" "The address, God damn it!" "Hold on, let me look for it." "Piece of shit." "Fellas." "Manny!" "I'll give you the 50 bucks!" "Manny can't hear you, Manny's moving too fast." "Come on, man, you don't wanna drag your hefty ass up this hill." "Not a problem for me, baby." "I'll just drop into my little ring." "Hey, Fixie, I bet you wish you had gears now, don't you?" "Gravity, you is my friend again, baby." "Hey, Wilee, I got something for ya!" "You like that, huh?" "Yeah, I know you do, you little bitch." "I got you, Spandex!" "I'm on your wheel!" "I'm in your draft, dude!" "It's like you're on my team!" " Slow down!" "Hey." " Guys, get off of the path!" "21 dispatch. 21 dispatch, come in." "2-1, bike post 3, you on the air?" "Yeah, this is Roselli." "Go ahead." "Your bike freak." "Beat-up white bike, red shirt?" "Yeah?" "He's at it again." "Park Drive, headed south towards 7th." "I'm on it." "Careful on the path, ma'am." "Dude, when's the race starting?" "People, please!" "Stay awake!" "Stay alive!" "Look out!" "Look out!" "God!" "That one hurt." "You're too slow!" "Give it up!" "NYPD!" "Stop the bikes!" "Both of you!" "Back it up!" "You're such an asshole!" "Screw you, Wilee!" "Billy, pull forward!" "Pull forward!" "Hey!" "Who the hell are you guys?" "Damn!" "Is that it?" "No!" "Gimme that!" "Gimme!" "No!" "Look at you." "You have got to be kidding me!" "Come here!" "Come here!" "Hey, what happened to you here?" "You use that goddamn brake again?" "Yeah, I took that shit off." "Thank you, Jesus." "Hey!" "Them!" "Them!" "This way, this way." "Shit!" "What are you doing?" "Looking for the thing." "Here it is." "Roll this up." "Really tight, really tight." "Okay." "Shit." "I mean, holy shit, right?" "I know." "Is it good?" "Yeah." "Come on, guys." "Come on!" "Hey!" "No, you don't." "Oh, shit." "Wilee!" "Shit." "Wilee?" "Aren't you afraid you're gonna get killed?" "You believe in luck." "When your number's up, your number's up." "Aren't you afraid you're gonna get killed?" "I mean, the way you ride." "Wile e!" "Wilee!" "Aren't you afraid you're gonna get killed?" "Yeah, but if it comes, that's just gonna come outta nowhere." "Am I afraid?" "Sure, but that's part of it, you know?" "There's no feeling like that." "When your number's up, your number's up." " You could say that." " So you're a Buddhist, then." "Yo, give it up for Sleigh Bells!" "That's what's up, that's what's up!" "Sleigh Bells, yo!" "You believe in luck." "You know it's the Taoists that believed in luck." "The Buddha rejected all that." "He insisted on cause and effect." "What kind of bike messenger are you?" "The kind with a Masters in Bullshit and Obfuscation." "You still haven't answered my original question." "Aren't you afraid of dying?" "I mean, the way you ride." "You wanna know what scares me is what happened to my friends who just got out of law school." "That is collective insanity." "Compared to that, going down Broadway at 50 with no brakes is fine." "Sounds good." "It also sounds like bullshit." "The bike wants to go fast." "It's steadier that way." "I've never been hurt going all-out." "It's just the hesitation that'll kill you." "So you're one of those guys." "No brakes." "No, I hate brakes." "Brakes are death." "Now it's time to announce the winner of the Fifth Annual New York Bike Messenger Association Alleycat Race." "Grand prize is $100 and Felipe's bike." "You like that?" "To the winner for the third consecutive year, the original bumper surfer, the Coyote Man, Wilee!" "Wilee!" "That's my boy, right there!"

" Calm down." " I didn't even do anything." " You got to relax." "Fine." "Okay." "Is this my bag?" "Thank you, I appreciate that." "Hopefully there's nothing missing." "This crazy man..." "I don't care what happened!" "Because you tackled me!" " I didn't mean to tackle you." " Just FYI, there's a lawsuit happening." "I'm not saying I'm gonna do it or whatnot, but there is one coming." "Thank you." "All right, come on." "Get your stuff." "Hey, chief, I need to talk to you." " Hey, what's up?" " I need to talk to you." " Did he come to?" " Yeah." "He's awake." "A little messed up." "He's got a couple of bruised ribs, but he'll be all right." " Listen, I gotta ask you a favor." " Yeah, shoot." "I have got to talk to this guy right away." "V?" "The bike." "His partner got away." "I gotta find him before he gets too far." "Is there any way I could ride and ask him a couple of questions?" " What, right now?" " Yeah, yeah, yeah." "If I could just sit with him on the way to the hospital?" " That's very unusual." " Oh, yeah?" " Yeah." " Well, NYPD needs a favor." "Okay?" "Okay, chum?" " All right, come and ride with us." " All right." "Thanks." "Drive." "Hey, buddy?" "Hey, buddy?" "Hey..." "They're not your buddies." "You're one of these bike assholes." "You know how much time they waste scraping you shitheads off the street?" "This whole city hates you." "Hey, man." "You headed to the impound?" "Yeah." "Why?" "Good." "Take this thing." "I'll meet you there." "When this asshole comes for his bike, he's mine." "Time to quit clicking around, son." "You got involved with some people with real problems." "Real deadlines." "Life and death shit." "What is this to you?" "What, the slope that gave you the ticket, she gave you some sad story?" "Eighteen cousins in Fujian that wanna come to Chinatown, dish out Mongolian beef with snow peas?" "Well, life's hard." "Turns out they can't come." "It's for her kid, man." "Do I bother her with my problems?" "Where's the ticket?" "Yeah, I hear you got some cracked ribs, that's gotta sting." "We better be careful." "Don't want you bouncing around too much in here." "Might poke a lung." "Oh, I'm sorry." "Is that uncomfortable?" "Douche bag." "I don't really care much for that term "douche bag."" "People throw it around like crazy these days, like it's suddenly okay." "You know what else people say now?" ""Suck it."" "I was watching TV the other night, 8:30, middle of prime time." "Kids could be watching." "Guy says, "Suck it."" "Everybody's laughing." "How is that appropriate?" "I'm gonna ask you some questions." "And you're gonna give me one-word answers, yes or no." "Even a bagboy should be able to handle that." "First question." "Do you know where the ticket is?" "Hello!" "You better give me an answer or I'm gonna snap your ribs like toothpicks." "Do you know where the ticket is?" "Will you give it to me?" "Good boy." "Just get me my bike." "Are you negotiating?" "Yeah." "Yeah, and you're outta time." "You might have these assholes in the bag, but you can't lean on me like this when we get to the hospital." "That's my offer!" "Get me my bike!" "I'll get you the ticket." "How do we make that happen?" "Manny." "Bring me Manny." "How ya doing, George?" "Charlie, pull up to the side!" "Put it back there?" "Yeah, I'm pushing it through." "Shit." "Get out." "Come on." "Here they come." "I'm gonna kick your ass till Thursday if he doesn't have it." "It's in his bag." "Why do you think I was chasing him?" "Can I get my bike now, please?" "Hey." "Hey, fellas." "What's up?" " Take this kid inside to get his bike." " All right." " But bring him back." " Will do." "Hello, sir!" "Rough day, huh?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Have to ask your permission to search your bag." "You're not in any trouble at all." "I have reason to believe somebody may have put something in there without your knowledge." "Okay." " Hey, did you just bring a bike in?" " End of the row." "Okay." "Hey, you see somebody hanging on the back of my truck?" "No, I just got here." "Like who?" "Like some batshit crazy messenger chick." "I think she was holding on the whole time I was on the West Side Highway." "Damn." "Something I've been looking for all damn day." " I've had a bit of a rough day myself." " What are you doing?" "Got it." "Nice!" "Are there any more compartments?" "For what?" "Over here." "I love you for more than one reason." "God damn it!" "Have a nice day." "Yeah, just leave it right there!" "I'll take care of it, not a problem!" "Shit." "I'm gonna shred the living shit outta that thing." "Wait." "I'll see you outside." "Hey!" "Where is the little shit?" "Left him back there behind the bikes." "End of the row." "You left him?" "What, you wanted me to watch him the whole time?" "No, I wanted you to give him the keys to your car, jackass." "Where'd he go?" "God damn it." "Bastard!" "Can I get some help here?" "Go round the other side!" "Outta my way!" "Hey!" "Come here!" "Cut him off!" "Jesus Christ!" "Hey!" "Close the doors!" "Okey-doke." "Come on." "Hey, somebody stop her!" "The girl on the bike!" "Come on!" "Close the doors!" "Angus, grab her!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Hey!" "You know what?" "I'm done." " Hello'?" " Hey, you out?" "Holy shit!" "That was the most fun I ever had with my clothes on!" "You know what to tell him?" "I'm on it." "I need a flash mob, like, five minutes ago." "24/7 Delivery." " Moosey, it's Raj." " Hey, what's up, Raj?" "I need the cavalry, bro." "No shit." "Where we going?" "Roadrunner." "Thought I told you not to call me, Raj." "Oh, really?" "Hey, it's Phoebe." "Who's at the bridge?" "Cyclehawk." "This is Johnny." "Yeah." "I got it." "I got it." "Well, tell him I got it." "He can send whoever he wants, the Red Army, General Chow, I don't give a hoot." "Yeah, I have the money." "147, Doyers Street." "Cross is Pell." "Five minutes." " Check this out." " Man!" "That was a fauxback." "Oh, shit." "Come on, I gotta go." "I gotta go." "Time to ride!" "Pay heed, people!" "Here we go!" "You know how they say, "There's enough to go around for everybody"?" "There isn't." "Give me the ticket." "Yeah, you know the thing about these folks?" "They never testify." "Who's to say you didn't lunge at me?" "Give me the ticket." "What, is that your backup?" "Yup." "Them, too." "Suck it, douche bag." "Get off me!" "Stay the hell off me." "I said stay away!" "Sister Chen?" "Delivery." "Oh, shit." "Yeah, what?" "What, huh?" "I'm a cop, you zipperheads." "What are you going to do?" "What?" "Wait a second." "Wait a second." "I need a..." "Okay." "Okay, just gimme a break." "I need to think for a second." "Thank God." "Are you okay?" "I'll still take 6th Avenue at rush hour over an office with a view." "Might have to put on the suit someday, but not yet." "Fixed gear, steel frame, no brakes." "Can't stop." "Don't want to, either." "Let's get this." "This is Joe's bike." "And that's where he ended up." " That's rough." " This is cool." "I mean, kids, don't try this at home or nothing, but, like..." "Seriously, let's get you to the hospital."

"CLOCK CHIMES" "Whoever those aliens, they've been here for a while." "Harriet Jones, MP for Flydale North." "I thought I was Prime Minister now." "Aaaaagh!"

"ALIEN ROARS" "ALIEN SCREECHES" "You want aliens, you've got them." "They're inside Downing Street." "Reinstate my disguise me!" "Hurry up, hurry!" "Wait!" "They're still in there - the Emergency Protocols, we need them." "Aaaagh!" "Where've you been?" "I called for help, I sounded the alarm..." "there was this..." "lightning, this kind of, um, electricity, and they all collapsed." "I think they're all dead." "That's what I'm saying." "He did it!" "That man there!" "The Prime Minister is an alien in disguise." "That's never gonna work, is it?" "No." "Fair enough." "Down there!" "Under the jurisdiction of the Emergency Protocols, I authorise you to execute this man!" "Well, now, yes, you see, er, the thing is..." "If I was gonna execute someone by backing him up against the wall, little word of advice - don't stand him against the lift." "ALIEN GROWLS" "LIFT BELL PINGS" "ALIEN HISSES Hello!" "Hide!" "I repeat, the upper floors are under quarantine." "You will disregard all previous instructions, you will take your orders directly from me." "LIFT BELL PINGS" "Mr Green, sir, sorry, but you've got to come with me." "We should evacuate the building." "Sergeant, have you, um, read the Emergency Protocols?" "No, sir." "Then don't question me." "Seal off Number Ten, secure the ground floor, and if the Doctor makes it downstairs, shoot on sight!" "You heard him, move out!" "Let the sport begin." "JOSEPH FARTS" "I'm getting poisoned by the gas exchange." "I need to be naked." "Rejoice in it." "Your body is magnificent." "Oh, such fun." "Little human children, where are you?" "Sweet little human kins, come to me." "Let me kiss you better." "Kiss you with my big green lips." "SHOUTING" "Go and check it out!" "LIFT BELL PINGS" "It does us good to hunt, it purifies the blood." "We'll keep this floor quarantined as our last hiding ground before the final phase." "My brothers." "Happy hunting?" "It's wonderful." "The more you prolong it, the more they stink." "Sweat and fear!" "I can smell an old girl." "Stale perfume and brittle bones." "And a ripe youngster, all hormones and adrenalin." "Fresh enough to bend before she snaps." "Ah!" "No!" "Take me first, take me!" "Out!" "With me!" "Who are you?" "Harriet Jones, MP for Flydale North." "Nice to meet you." "Likewise." "We need the Cabinet Rooms." "The Emergency Protocols are in there." "Harriet Jones, I like you." "I think I like you too." "One move and my device'll triplicate the flammability of this alcohol." "Woof, we all go up." "So back off." "Right, then, question time." "Who exactly are the Slitheen?" "They're aliens." "Yes, I got that, thanks." "Who are you, if not human?" "Who?" "He's not human." "He's not?" "Could I have a bit of hush?" "Sorry." "So, what's the plan?" "But he's got a northern accent." "Lots of planets have a north." "Hush!" "Come on!" "You've got a spaceship hidden in the North Sea." "You've murdered your way to the top, what for, invasion?" "Why would we invade this godforsaken rock?" "Something's brought your race here." "The Slitheen race?" "Slitheen is not our species." "Slitheen is our surname." "Jocrassa Fel Fotch Pasameer-Day Slitheen at your service." "So you're family?" "A family business." "Then you're out to make a profit." "How can you do that on a rock?" "Aaaaaaah, excuse me." "Your device will do what - "triplicate the flammability"?" "That's what I said?" "You're making it up." "Oh, well." "Nice try." "Have a drink." "You're gonna need it." "You pass it to the left first." "Sorry." "Thanks." "Now we can end this hunt... witha slaughter." "Don't you think we should run?" "Fascinating history, Downing Street." "2, 000 years ago, this was marshland." "1730, it was occupied by a Mr Chicken." "He was a nice man." "1796, this was the Cabinet Room." "If the Cabinet's in danger, these are about the safest walls in Britain." "End of lesson." "Installed in 1991." "Three inches of steel, lining every single wall." "They'll never get in." "And how do we get out?" "Ah." "He's safely contained." "Now cut off the communications, then summon up the family!" "It's time we finished with this insane planet for good." "SIRENS WAIL" "And there's still no word from inside Downing Street, though we are getting even more new arrivals." "That's Group Captain Tennant James of the RAF, though why he's been summoned, we've no idea." "And that's Ewan McAllister," "Deputy Secretary for the Scottish Parliament." "And this is most unusual " "I'm told that is Sylvia Dillane, chairman of the North Sea Boating Club." "Quite what connects all these people, we have no idea." "Group Captain." "Delighted you could make it." "We're meeting upstairs." "HE FARTS That's the spirit, off you go." "Good to see you." "Come on through." "Ah, Sergeant." "Now that the Doctor's been neutralised, the upper levels are out of bounds to everyone." "Then who are they?" "Need to know, Sergeant, need to know." "I want you to liaise with Communications." "The Acting Prime Minister will be making an address." "He will speak to the nations of the world!" "If you'd just like to go through and get changed." "Now, if you'd like to head down to the end of the corridor, it's first on the left." "Thank you." "Got anything stronger?" "No chance." "This ain't time for a conga!" "We've gotta tell someone!" "Who do we trust?" "For all we know, they've all got big bog monsters inside of 'em." "I mean this is what he does, Jacks." "That Doctor bloke, everywhere he goes, death and destruction, and he's got Rose in it." "Has he got a great big green thing inside him, then?" "I wouldn't put it past him." "But he's the only person who knows how to fight these things!" "I thought I was gonna die." "Come on, yeah?" "If anyone's gonna cry, it's gonna be me." "Now, you're safe in my flat." "No-one's gonna look for you here, since you hate me so much!" "You saved my life!" "God, that's embarrassing!" "Telling me!" "He wanted me dead." "And he's still out there, Mickey." "That policeman... thatthing!" "Right, you head off." "Inform control I've one or two things that still need doing." "I haven't quite finished with Mrs Tyler yet." "Is that all of us?" "All the family except Sip Fel Fotch." "He's found a hunt of his own." "Ah." "What was his name?" "Who?" "This one." "The, er, secretary, or whatever he was called." "I don't know." "I talked to him." "I brought him a cup of coffee." "I never asked his name." "Sorry." "Right, what have we got?" "Any terminals, anything?" "Nope, this place is antique." "When they killed the Prime Minister, why didn't they use him as a disguise?" "He's too slim." "They need to fit inside big humans." "But the Slitheen are eight feet." "How do they squeeze inside?" "That's the device round their necks, it shrinks them down a bit." "That's why there's all that gas." "Wish I had a compression field." "Excuse me, people are dead!" "This is not the time for jokes." "You get used to this stuff when you're friends with him." "Well, that's a strange friendship." "Harriet Jones." "I've heard that name before." "You're not famous for anything, are you?" "Hardly!" "Rings a bell." "Harriet Jones?" "Lifelong backbencher and a fat lot of use of I am now." "The Protocols are redundant." "They list people who could help and they're dead." "Couldn't we just launch a nuclear bomb at them?" "You're a very violent young woman." "I'm serious, we could!" "There's nothing like that in here." "Nuclear strikes do need a release code, yes, but it's kept secret by the United Nations." "Say that again." "What, about the codes?" "Anything, all of it." "The British Isles can't gain access to atomic weapons without a Special Resolution from the UN." "Like that's ever stopped 'em." "Exactly, given our past record..." "and I voted against that." "The codes have been given to the UN." "Is it important?" "Everything's important." "If only we knew what the Slitheen wanted." "I'm saying Slitheen as if it's normal!" "What do they want, though?" "They're just one family, so it's not an invasion." "They're out to make money." "They want to use something on Earth." "Some kind of asset." "Like gold?" "Oil?" "Water?" "You're very good at this." "Thank you." "Harriet Jones, why do I know that name?" "PHONE BEEPS Oh, that's me." "How did you get a signal?" "He zapped it." "Super phone." "Then we can phone your contacts!" "Dead downstairs, yeah." "It's Mickey." "Oh, tell your stupid boyfriend we're busy." "Yeah, he's not so stupid after all." "No, no, not just alien, but like, proper alien, all stinking and wet and disgusting, and more to the point, it wanted to kill us!" "I could have died!" "Is she all right though?" "Don't put her on, just tell me." "Is that Ricky?" "Just go to your computer." "It's Mickey, and why should I?" "Mickey, the idiot, I might just choke before I finish this sentence, but..." "Ineedyou." "It says "password?"" "Say again." "It's asking for the password." "Buffalo." "Two Fs, one L." "So what's that website?" "All the secret information known to mankind." "See, they've known about aliens for years." "They just kept us in the dark." "Mickey, you were born in the dark." "Oh, leave him alone." "Thank you." "Password again." "Just repeat it, every time." "Big Ben." "Why did the Slitheen go and hit Big Ben?" "You said to gather the experts, to kill them." "That lot would've gathered for a weather balloon." "You don't need to crash-land in the middle of London." "The Slitheen are hiding, but then they put the entire planet on red alert." "Why?" "Oh, listen to her(!" ") Oi!" "At least I'm trying." "I'VE got a question, if you don't mind." "Since that man walked into our lives, I've been attacked in the streets," "I've had creatures from the pits of hell in my own living room and my daughter disappear off the face of the Earth." "I told you what happened." "I'm talking to HIM!" "Cos I've seen this life of yours, Doctor, and maybe you get off on it, and maybe you think it's all clever and smart, but you tell me - just answer me this - is my daughter safe?" "I'm fine." "Is she safe?" "!" "Will she always be safe, can you promise me that?" "Well, what's the answer?" "We're in." "Now, then." "On the left, at the top, there's a tab, an icon, little concentric circles, click on that." "What is it?" "The Slitheen have got a spaceship in the North Sea transmitting that signal." "Now, hush, let me work out what it's saying." "He'll have to answer me one day." "Hush!" "It's some sort of message." "What's it say?" "Don't know, it's on a loop, keeps repeating." "BUZZ!" "Hush!" "That's not me!" "Go and see who that is." "It's three o'clock in the morning." "Well, go and tell THEM that!" "It's beaming out into space." "Who's it for?" "DOORBELL BUZZES All right!" "Mrs Tyler." "Ooh!" "It's him, it's the thing!" "It's the Slickeen!" "They've found us!" "Mickey, I need that signal." "Never mind the signal, get out!" "Mum just get out!" "We can't, it's by the front door." "Oh, my God." "It's unmasking." "It's gonna kill us." "There's got to be some way of stopping them!" "You're supposed to be the expert - think of something!" "I'm trying!" "RUMBLES AND SQUELCHES I'll take it on, Jackie." "You just run." "Don't look back." "Just run." "CLATTERS AND THUDS That's my mother." "Right!" "If we're gonna find their weakness, we need to find out where they're from, which planet." "Their basic shape, that narrows it down to 5, 000 nearby planets." "What else do we know about them?" "Information!" "They're green!" "Narrows it down." "Good sense of smell." "Narrows it down." "They can smell adrenaline." "Narrows it down." "Pig technology." "Narrows it down." "Spaceship in the Thames." "Slipstream engine." "Narrows it down." "It's getting in!" "They hunt, like a ritual." "Narrows it down." "Wait, did you notice... ?" "When they fart, if you'll pardon the word, it doesn't just smell like a fart, if you'll pardon the word, it's something else?" "What?" "It's more like, um..." "Badbreath!" "That'sit!" "Calcium decay!" "THAT narrows it down!" "We're getting there, Mum!" "Too late!" "Calcium phosphate, organic calcium, living calcium, creatures made out of living calcium." "What else?"

"Tell your friend U-Turn, you tell him he's a lawn jockey now." "Hasta luego." "Yeah." "Adios." " The fuck is this?" " Your pot." "He said to tell you that "you're a lawn jockey now"." "I'm not sure what that means but I figured you 2 have some sort of... drug dealer shorthand that I'm not privy to." "You were supposed to pick up a key of Jag." " Jack?" " I had it all promised out." "What the fuck am I supposed to do with this?" "That would be euphemism for... heroin?" "I'm gonna kill that bean-farting motherfucker." "This is your fault, bitch!"

"No way I'm gonna get 12.5 for a brick." "You got 4 days." "And I'm taking the money that I gave that fucking wetback for my Jag, and I'm adding it on your tab." "Yeah." "I'm not stupid, okay?" "I know what this is worth, and it's not 12.5." "8, maybe." "13!" "I'm back, so now I got a fuck to shit up." "I ain't got anymore "shit to fuck up", okay?" "I've got kids, I've got bills!" "How am I supposed to put food on my table?" "You keep upping my debt." "Get a fucking job." "Young man, the theft you commited of those surveillance cameras was more than just a simple act of vandalism." "It was a slap in the face to this community, and the citizens who have dedicated their time ridding Agrestic of drugs." "So I'm inclined to make an example of you and your wanton disregard of civic property." "Excuse me, judge." "I'd like to speak out on behalf of my son." " He's normally very responsible."

"Yeah, you got that right." "I can't wait to kill me some terrorists." "Are you kidding me?" "This isn't about terrorism." "We are just pawns in a chess game for control of the oil production." "Who cares?" "Bring it on, man." "Please, don't talk to me anymore." "You gonna shit when I shit." "6 weeks from today, this entire troop of girl scouts will be shipped off to Irak." "So you best pay close attention to every goddamn word that comes out of my godly mouth!" "Sergeant Bilko, hi." "I'm in the wrong place, they promised me a desk job." "Who in the hell gave you permission to break rank, you flaccid little dick!" "I just wanted to make sure..." "They promise everybody a desk job, you useless twat!" " I have eight toes." " And I got four dicks!" "So you better fall back in line before I use one of them to fuck you up the ass with!" "Now fall back in line!" "You people are losers, you are scumbags, and I am God." "It's gonna be great!" "Because I won't be responsible when you get to Irak and if you don't listen to me, guess what, you will die!" "What are you looking at, you piece of shit!" "Well..." "In light of this incident, we intend to petition the judge Inas that Mrs. Hodes only have access to her daughter Isabelle on weekends, at the house, in the presence of Mr. Hodes." "That's outrageous." "Weekends at the house unsupervised by Mr. Hodes." " Nope." " Fine." "Fine?" "What do you mean, "fine"?" "I'm the mother." "Why aren't his internal fishballs in a vise ?" "What happened to the fish?" "The fish gasps but the cow gives milk." "You dried up the cow." " Oh, so now I'm the fish..." " What the hell are they talking about?"

"Hey, biddings are up to 28,000 on Uncle Andy's guitar." "That's great, sweety." " I was just trying..." " To what, Silas?" "Help me?" "No, didn't help." "Matter of fact, made it worse."

"Khoumba, if it begins to choose the names in function of the different origins here of the room, that won't never end." "Then vary a little." "And what is the one that proposes?" "Aïiïssata." "Fatou..." " No, Aïiïssata!" "Hello." "Everything well?" "With license, you give classes of French to the 8º-3rd?" "Yes." "It is am also the group coordinator." "And you already know what book will they read?" "No, I didn't still decide." "In History, I will begin for the Old Regime." "If he/she wants to do an united work, what works does think we would have?" "There is Iluminismo, but that it is difficult for the 8th year." "And is Voltaire, very difficult?" "It is not easy." ""Cândido" is simple..." "Not for the 8th year." ""Zadig.".." "Yes, but..." "In my opinion he/she doesn't give." "I will correct in 20 seconds." " No, teacher, please!" "We still didn't end." "We cannot be two hours only with the imperfect." "Dalla, you can ask the hours diretamenta for me." "Teacher, my pen he/she burst." "It is a dirt." "Who is that he/she has a handkerchief..." " Me!" "Rabah..." "Do ask to get up, right?" "Can I get up?" " Yes." "Calmly, right!" " That perverted!" "He/she played in her petos!" "And, give the handkerchief." "We spared comments, Boubacar." " His/her pedófilo!" "Filthy!" "He/she already arrives!" " Teacher..." "Because imperfect of the indicative?" "Stop with that!" "Because it is that is not alone imperfect?" " He/she already arrives, Souleymane." "Good question, Emerald, because it is that we say of the indicative?" "If I knew, no tava asking." "Yes, he/she is right." "Somebody knows because we specified imperfect of the indicative?" "And because not just imperfect?" "Nassim." "Go wash the hands?" "Yes, it is well, he/she will wash the hands and we are going continuing." "But fast!" "Quickly!" " He will be long one week!" "I am going with him!" " Calmly." "If we say imperfect of the indicative it is to distinguish of other imperfect." "What imperfect that is?" "Agam?" " It is the imperfect of the subjunctive." "Exactly." "The imperfect of the subjunctive!" "Somebody can give me an example of the imperfect of the subjunctive?" "No ownership to believe, Khoumba, but I want to listen." "I can be wrong..." "I think is very possible." "I was." " I was, very well." "Of the verb it is "?"" "I don't know." " I stowed." "I was, we were, you were..." "He/she is not badly, but it is not using the verb correctly." "He/she has some vacates memory of the imperfect of the subjunctive." "Imagine that I say..." ""It is necessary... "" ""that I am... "" ""... in form."" "What is this is "" here?" "Eva?" " It is the present of the subjunctive." "Very well." "It is the present of the subjunctive." "If we want to build in the imperfect of the subjunctive, we have to do the agreement of the times." "I will put here in the past:" ""It was necessary... "" ""It was necessary that me... " Khoumba?" "It was." "You do find that I will say for my mother:" ""Was it necessary what I had been?"" "It is not "that I had been."" "Learn how first to conjugate." ""It was necessary that I was in shape."" "Nobody says that!" "I was right!" "I was right." "It was "that I was!"" "I can answer to the question what did make me?" "If it is that are interested even." "Yes, I authorize." "It is that before even of they know to conjugate the imperfect of the subjunctive, they are already telling me that him he/she doesn't go is for anything." "Begin learning how to conjugate, and later question his use." "Teacher, does he/she speak serious?" "They are right, because the people they don't speak like this nowadays." "Not even my grandmother speaks like this." " Nor his/her great-grandfather!" "That is of the Medium Age!" "It is not anything of the Medium Age." "Of course is!" "It is bourgeois!" "Which was the last time what did hear anybody speak like this?" "Yesterday, among friends, we used the imperfect of the subjunctive..." "No, somebody normal!" "Everything well, everything well..." "Can I answer?" "Yes." "It is good very good the debate, but calmly." "In fact, nor all the people speak like this and they are rare the people that make him/it." "He/she would say same that only the people snobs they use the imperfect of the subjunctive." "What does snob mean?" "Snobs are people a little affected, with meneirismos, that you/they speak full of habits." " Are the homosexuals?" "No, they are not the homosexuals." "We can be affected and refined and we be not homosexuals, Boubacar." "In any way, it is true that this registration can to seem formal and a little affected, and even middle-class." "But the important is to notice that different registrations exist, as I have statement repeatedly, everyday, for you, and to know to alternate among them:" "the relative, the colloquial, the formal, the oral and the writing, in short, to know to travel among all and to dominate them." "Yes, Lucie?" "But as we know which is the one of the writing and which is the oral?" "As it is that we know that the word if better adéqua to one of the registrations?" "Usually, that is a thing that it is learned with the practice." "It is necessary to know to use the intuition." "What does mean "intuition?"" "The intuition is when we didn't use the reason." "When we are not able to..." "It is not so much a subject of to know or not to know, but of feeling the things." "The intuition is when we felt the things." "And if we don't feel?" "If we didn't feel, good..." "The intuition is acquired practicing the language a lot." "It is like this that we learned to distinguish almost automatically between the oral and the writing." "Teacher?" "Souleymane he/she wants to say a thing." "He/she shuts up!" " What does he mean?" "He/she speaks there!" "You are a gossip!" "What is that he/she has to tell me?" "Stop with that!" "Anything of fights!" "You deserve some blows!" "Go ahead!" "Souleymane, what is that there is?" "Boubacar, he/she sees to the front!" "What is that will say?" " Anything." "He/she doesn't swim, seemingly." "Don't order him for the direction." "If I say, it is going me to order is for Guantánamo!" "Guantánamo!" "Guantánamo!" "I still iron myself, it lets to be." "Nothing is not ironed." " No, not..." "But you have some question?" " I have..." "Then, ask." " It is very bad..." "It is not anything." " It is very embarrassing for you." "Say there at once." " Do I have his/her word?" "Say soon!" "That was what I heard..." "I didn't go me that he/she said, but I heard to say..." "That the teacher he/she liked men." "I didn't go me that he/she said!" " Who is that that said?" "The people." "Everybody says that the teacher Marin likes men." "They are the others that say, but you not?" "Doesn't that interest you?" "I am not nor there!" "Then because it is that he/she asked?" "Because of the other ones." "I am a spokesperson." "But doesn't that subject interest you?" "It likes himself men, it is with you." "Exactly." "But is it true?" "Even so you ask!" "Homosexual no it is an insult, teacher!" "He/she is saying that it is not an insult, but he/she seems that that is a problem for you." "It is not evident that there is men that like men." "Maybe it is, I don't know." "But is it true or not?" "No, it is not true." "Satisfied?" "Ah, yes?" "Everything well." "Excuse if I disappointed you." "If Souleymane doesn't care, now that already solved their psychological problems, we will return to the imperfect of the indicative." "That, like this!" "The one that you tá doing there!" " He/she sneaks out!" "Did anybody call you?" "He/she looks for your face!" "Everything is well, it will iron!" "Take the picture of those stupid ones, but later you will see!" "He/she goes, it goes, all of backs!" "Those guys are all some clowns!" "One more!" "He/she takes out alone the quality of the screen of that machine!" " You can have faith!" "Doesn't he/she have how to get me one?" "You don't have money." "But how much cost?" " It is very expensive." "I am not a pauper like you!" "She made a mistake there." "It began for the verb to "have faith."" "No, it is the verb to "grow." Me "creço."" "Justine..." "It is "had faith."" "Justine, do for his/her head." ""We want." It is better, it is a mixture of the two." "It is "created!"" "She wrote "them credem!"" "Very well, thank you..." "He/she tries "creiem!"" "It can go to his/her place." "We will see..." "She doesn't know how to write!" "Doesn't she know how to write?" "And do you know, Rabah?" "Of course yes!" "Then, go!" "Correct what she did badly." "To begin before the "i" he/she has a "t."" "No." "Continue." "Stop with that!" "No, it is a "You" with a "t."" "Also not." "You should maintain the mouth closed, expensive!" "I am playing." "To 1st and 2nd person of the plural they are not written like this." "Then as it is?" "CRO..." "It is not with I." "Because, well." "It is not with I." "Frankly, Rabah, because it is that picked on Justine, is not it known more than she?" "But I know more than she!" "Justine at least in the first three..." "Now already it arrives!" "You are unable to concentrate for more than 20 seconds, they seem 3 year-old children." "If you if they held as people of 13, 14 or 15 years they would answer to the question in one minute and if he/she didn't speak more in this." "He/she is very heavy pegendo with that game!" " I don't find." "Everybody finds that." "I am with her." "Everybody thinks, or only you that thinks?" "No, everybody!" "Everybody thinks and me also I think you are abusing." "If I leave you in peace, they will never go to place none!" "But that is not reason to enjoy of us!" "It was exactly for the reason that I have just said!" "I am tired of those clowns!" "Cançado!" "I don't get nor to look for them!" "They are not anybody, they don't know anything, it seems that you/they look through us when we tried to teach them." "Then that continue in the shit!" "I am not me that will run behind!" "They are so basic, of a bad faith, always removing tartars." "Then tá, rapaziada." "Be there in yours shit neighborhood." "They will die for there and it is well done." "I will have a meeting with the director and I am going Ihe to say that not I return to give classes to the 7º-2nd." "They won't have computer science classes to the end of the year." "Worser for them." "Already 3 months passed and they didn't make strictly anything." "Did they already look at them in the recreation?" "It seems that are in the rut!" "Always on top some of the other ones, they seem animal!" "It is a madness!" "And they make the same in the room." "Kevin spent one hour he/she completes in that..." "I never saw a thing like this in five years of teaching!" "Enough." "He/she already arrives." "We are not animals." "Excuse." "Me..." "That imbecility." "Come will take an air." "It was not very complicated to read one chapter for today." "Did nobody read?" "We are wasting time." "We will read again." "Who wants to read?" "But that good..." "That beautiful work atmosphere we have today." "Khoumba, can begin." "I don't want to read." "Because not?" "I don't have will." "And from when does his/her will prevail?" "I don't have will!" " And me with that?" "What was that that Khoumba he/she has just done?" "Wey?" " Gibe." "I refer to the attitude." "What did she demonstrate?" "Insolence." "Exactly, you are a specialist." "You seem that "worships", that he/she adores to be picking on me!" "And the one what is that?" "That is not true." "But he/she tries to speak in French colloquial." "Am I the something?" ""Scallop shell."" "Say in French colloquial." " He/she has some thing thing against me." "Now yes, it is French colloquial." "I only asked that you he/she read, only that." "I think I am entitled of Ihe to ask to read." "Don't agree?" "No." "Nobody read the book and it is with me that the teacher implicate." " It is not true." "I only want us to work and I chose you, as it is my right." " Good Tá, let to be!" "Remain silent now." "Begin to read." " No." "First you say for me to remain silent and later it orders me to read." "Is the something that?" "What is the something?" " Decide!" "Think a little." "In the end of the class we talked." "I guarantee that won't be beautiful." "Everything well." "Yes, everything well, but therefore it won't be so well for you." "Emerald, is also on strike as his/her friend or can he/she read for us?" "The life belongs to her." "I don't want to know." "In that case, can he/she read for us?" "With a lot, a lot of pleasure." "Very well, Emerald, we are Ihe hearing." ""Dear Kitty, am known for being full of contradictions. "" ""As already several times he/she told you,"" ""my soul is divided in two. "" ""On a side, my exuberant happiness,"" ""my ironic glance on everything, my pleasure to live,"" ""and, above all, my form light of facing the things. "" ""With this, I want to say that I don't see problem in the seduction,"" ""in giving a kiss or to hug somebody,"" ""or to say a joke of bad taste. "" ""This side is quite more sharpened and it hides the other side"" ""that is more beautiful, purer and deeper. "" ""The truth is that nobody knows Anne's most beautiful side"" ""and it is for that that most of the people it doesn't support me. "" ""I can be an entertaining clown during the afternoon,"" ""but already soon afterwards all already had an enough quota of me. "" ""In society, never nobody"" ""he/she saw sweet Anne. "" ""But in the solitude, she always appears. "" ""Yours, Anne Frank." "Here it finishes Anne Frank's diary. "" "Here it finishes the diary of Anne Frank." "Reason?" "Because the police he/she appeared at the rooms where he/she hid her family and they were all deporteds." "And Anne Frank died little time later." "As he/she had already said for you." "When I read that, I discover things on Anne Frank she talks about their feelings, about his/her personality and that allows me to know her." "When I ask for you his/her escreveren self-portrait," "I wait for the same thing:" "that you/they reveal me things, that express feelings, sensations, that tell me histories that he/she is permitted to know them better." "Lucie?" "Yes, but that that we write it won't be so captivating as the one that Anne Frank wrote." "Our lives no they are so captivating." "I understand..." "Juliette?" "That would be comprehensible for a 70 year-old person, but to the 13 years we don't have anything to count." "To the 14, 15, even 13 years, they already had experiences." "But less than a person of 70, that he/she already lived much more." "Yes." " She knows much more about the life." "The funny is that you not they find their interesting lives." "But we are only going to the school, we returned home, we ate and we slept." "They are going to school, they eat and they sleep." "If we only look at the facts, our lives are annoying." "But that that you/they seat is interesting." " But that is deprived." "Yes, but I say that I concern." "But with you it is different." "Because it is that is different?" "Because he/she is the teacher." "But he/she is not the teacher that he/she is speaking." "It is his/her work." " He/she is the human being." "I think he/she is only saying that because he/she wants us to speak and such, but it is not true." "Ah, yes?" "What is not true?" "The fact of being interested in knowing that everything." "You find, then, that am lying, that I am not interested in you, and that am forcing a little to convince them of what is interesting?" "No as much as he/she is saying." "Maybe be exaggerating a little." "Like you they don't agree with me, it is natural that I exaggerate." "But in the bottom, I am being sincere." "Because it is that is a problem so big for you do they speak about their lives?" "Boubacar?" "Good, because there are things that..." "There are things that are deprived." "Of course yes." "What is that can be difficult to count on his/her private life?" "Burak?" "We can be embarrassed of counting certain things." "It is that, clear, it is a subject of shame." "They are things difficult to say and still more of writing." "In their private lives, when is it that feel shame?" "We can be embarrassed of a friend's mother." "Reason?" "Because they find her ugly?" "No." "For instance, when I was the house of Rabah..." "His mother invited me to eat lunch but I refused, because he/she was embarrassed." "He/she was embarrassed of eating with the mother of Rabah?" "Reason?" "He/she didn't find her worthy of you?" "It is not that!" "I don't understand." "Explain to me." "I am embarrassed of eating with her because to I respect." "He/she never eats with people what do you respect?" "No, it is not that!" "She is not my girlfriend!" "Do you only eat with his/her girlfriend?" "Or with a friend?" "We go, explain to me better, Boubacar." "That I concern." "I don't know how to explain." "What matters, it is that am embarrassed..." "Rabah is my friend, I am always with him, and for that respect his mother." "I don't eat with her, and ready." "Therefore, if Boubacar not to eat with us it is because it doesn't respect us." " No, it is not that!" "You don't understand." "I don't understand, I am not sufficiently intelligent?" "It is not that." "It is that you don't understand." "Rabah?" "Another day I went at a party where there were only "breads with butter."" ""Breads with butter?"" " Yes, as the teacher." "Explain what is a "bread with butter?"" "They are people that they don't like cheese." "Then you were to a party where did nobody like cheese?" "All were of suit and tie." "I went of wide pants and all looked at me of side." "And were you embarrassed?" "That." "Because of those strange glances." "Therefore, they were your embarrassed, and you were their embarrassed." "They were not embarrassed." "They looked at me as if I went an extra-terrestrial one." "But you are an extra-terrestrial one!" " "Because it is that this Arab one is here?"" "Ah, then was a race subject." " I don't know, I don't know." "But the French fries they had bacon flavor." "Is it then?" "I had to refrain." "Ah, right." "Bacon, ham..." "I already understood." "Wey?" "The youths today they are not embarrassed." "The youths today?" "Like you, for instance?" "Lower the pants!" "Els are not embarrassed." "But it is normal." "It is always everything normal." "And you, is Wey, like them?" " No, I am not like them." "Are you embarrassed, sometimes?" " Yes, shame for them even." "He/she looks that put an end to you!" "All can speak, but they are educated!" "Wey, you can explain because does shame feel for them?" "Because they are not embarrassed." "They scream, they are hurt." "They make jokes, they annoy the people." "They are not embarrassed." "Wey, you would not be confusing the shame with the discipline?" "You think all the other ones they are not disciplined and educated." "But it can also be shameful." "Louise?" "We can be embarrassed of our appearance." "Of course yes, we can have shame of our appearance." "Tell me, Louise, of the one that you feel shame in his/her appearance?" "Of my ears." "Of their ears?" " Can we see?" "You are embarrassed of their ears?" "What do they have of badly?" " They are flappy ears." "You think he/she has ears of ventilator." " My also." "I think we already saw all of the subjects, and that you/they already have everything that you/they need to pass to the action." "Catch their notebooks." "And they will write down the house work to the next 5ª-fair." "It is very simple:" ""Write his/her self-portrait."" "I should remind them that a self-portrait it is not an autobiography." "I don't want that tell me their lives." "I want that describe me who are, about his/her personality." "We will read them in the class and later we will see what to do with them." "Don't forget." "Khoumba!" "You know that I want to speak with you." "Feel his/her notebook." "Reason?" "You know reason very well." "No, surrender politely." "Per hour, it already arrives." "You have to put a picture here." "He/she finds normal you to refuse to read when does a teacher Ihe ask?" "Does he/she find normal?" " Yes." "There was other in the room." "But when you make nonsenses, I am not able to to look to the side." "Don't find?" "What did in the Summer happen?" "What did happen during the vacations?" " I didn't see him/it in the vacations." "Yes, I know." "And it is for that that am intrigued." "In the end of last year, in June, we felt very well, we had ourselves expert, you participated in the classes." "Since September, since the beginning of the year, don't cooperate, you are always of trunk, I ask that he/she reads, and he/she doesn't make him/it..." "What is happening he/she?" " I don't like to read, it is alone that." "Could he/she finish, please?" " I still didn't finish!" "Explain to me." "Because it is that did the things change suddenly?" "I cannot be a girl forever." "Then, to cooperate is girls' thing?" "Then, it is that." " There are other people in the group." "Clear, when you work, that is..." "We still didn't finish." "I am with hurry." "My mother is waiting for myself." "But first I want that piece excuses." "I want that is excused for the that did there is little." ""I apologize, teacher, for it being insolent with you."" "Excuse." "Good Tá?" " No, not "excuse."" ""I apologize, teacher, for it being insolent with you." I am waiting." "Excuse it was insolent..." "No, I "Apologize, teacher, for it being insolent with you."" "But he/she says sincerely." "I want that is a true apology." "Can it finish with that, please?" "My mother is waiting..." "Piece excuses." "Do you know how to speak, tá seeing?" "I want to hear the sentence, I want that is sincere and that he/she stays like this until the end of the year." "Because we are not able to to continue like this." "I apologize for it being insolent... with you." "With more conviction." "I won't repeat that 50 times!" "You two!" "What is that you/they are doing there?" "We are waiting." "Do I can?" "Walk, I am waiting!" "I apologize for having been insolent with you." "Can I leave now, please?" "Stop with that!" "I was not sincere." "Two weeks ago, during the last meeting, of the permanent commission the teachers suggested the introduction of a system of penalização for points for the students based on the system of the transport letter." "If a student infringes a rule, he/she will lose points." "As the idea belongs to the teachers, step-Ihes the word." "Since September, we noticed an increase of problems in the school." "The punishments no longer they produce effect in the students, then we have had this idea of a system of penalização for points." "Each student would have, for instance, six points, and in function of the gravity of the mistake it can lose 1 or 2 points." "And when no longer they have points what is that happens?" "They will owe if it directs to Council to Discipline." "As representative of the Commission of Parents," "I think that is typical of the line of orientation of the school." "They are always ready to punish but never to value the students." "The students are valued alone." "They are valued by the notes, passing of year, and we valued them in the class pieces of advice, encouraging them when the average is not good." "There is also the honor picture, the recommendations..." "All this bill!" "In his/her system, they remove points of who commits mistakes, but because it is that didn't take the far away system, attributing points to who does he/she make the things well?" "Type medals!" "I am in favor of the valorization of the students, but if a student accumulates points and to end with 34 points, suddenly it is with an enormous margin to do the whole type of nonsenses, and later we don't go to get to control them." "Even without those hypothetical 34 points, six points to begin it means that can cause problems without they be punished." "To lose 1 or 2 points, for me, it is not a true punishment." "It can create a feeling dangerous of impunity." "For me, this is one false typical good idea." "In that case, we could try to find a punishment in that the students lose all of the points at once." "But like this the system he/she would lose his/her interest." "It is not simple." "That that you call feeling of impunity gives us a maneuver space." "When we have to work with punishments too rigid, we cannot apply them in the same way the all of the cases." "I don't agree." "The rules owe if it applies in the same way the all of the students." "If they infringe them, they are punished." "If it doesn't go like this, for something we do worry ourselves?" "But it is for there being such strict rules that he/she grows up an enormous tension." "The control of the cellular ones, for instance." "All agreed with the rule that the cellular ones were forbidden in the classroom." "Excuse, but I broke the rule because it was not a problem for me." "He/she has there to be a maneuver space, an area of tolerance." "That is the kingdom of the outrage." "No, it is the law and the spirit of the law." "We could be speaking here to the midnight, but that is not possible." "We have other themes to approach." "Namely, an essential subject, and very delicate: the machine of coffee." "That the teachers have been approaching." "It is true, it is a delicate subject!" "All agree that this year exists a true problem." "The price of the coffee arose of 40 cents for 50 cents." "This can seem mean, but as we drank several coffees a day, at 8 o'clock, to the 10 or 4 in the afternoon, this if it turns a great expense, in such a way that in the quotizamos" "to buy a machine of coffee." "It is serious, we can drink the coffees that we want, without having to do bills." "Mr. Pierre will have the pleasure of Ihe to answer." "Before anything else, this machine it was installed in 2001 to substitute a machine that he/she needed the intervention of an external company to restock her, to repair her, etc." "It was extremely expensive and profitable." "We changed for a new machine that, for the time being, it is not still a lot profitable." " Lament to hear that!" "And it was for that that increased the price of the coffee 10 cents." "That has to be economically viable." "Is nobody shocked?" "I think clear and logical." "Good night, ladies." " Good night." "Don't be inconvenienced." " We have to go." "We still didn't finish." "The respect." "The adolescents learn gradually to respect their teachers because of their threats or for the fear of arranging problems." "To begin, I respect him/it and the respect should be mutual." "For instance, if I don't say that the teacher is hysterical, because it is that the teacher does he/she call me of that?" "I always respected him/it, and it is for that that I don't understand because I have to write that." "I know that he/she has any thing against me, but I don't know reason." "I decided to sit down in the bottom of the room to avoid more conflicts, unless it provokes me." "I admit that can be insolent, but only when they provoke me." "I will look at him/it again so that he/she doesn't say again that my glance is insolent." "Usually, in a class of French, we should speak about French, and not of our grandmother, of our sister or of the girls' period." "And it is for that that, from now on, I don't speak to you again." "Signed Khoumba." "What is that?" " It is a secret." "A secret?" "It won't be secret for very more time." "Emerald, why you changed of place?" " For anything." "I had will." "Is there some problem?" "No, none." "Problem none." "He/she wanted to change of air." "Ready, I think already arrives." "We will work." "No, teacher, please!" "Please, teacher!" "They are only copying what had done home." "They already had a long time." "Emerald..." "We want Ihe to hear." "Am I thank you?" "Yes, absolutely." "My name is Emerald Ouertani, am 14 years old, alive in the avenue Père Julien Dhuit, number 20, with my parents and with my three siblings and sisters." "Of here the one years, I want to be a policeman." "because the people say that there are only police bad and for that we needed of good." "If no, it would like of being rapper and I am fan of Bakar," "Médine, Younes, Marvin and Mafiak'1 Fry." "On the other hand, I like to eat, to sleep and to walk for the "ghetto."" "Or then?" "Neighborhood." "Because it is that he/she doesn't say directly since he/she knows?" "When we wrote, we used the registration average." "Don't hope Ihe corrects." "Wey, now you." "My name is Wey, I am Chinese," "I have 15 years, two sisters, I am the newest of the family." "I adore video games, and I can play for 4 hours." "I have difficulty in using French correctly." "It is so difficult to express me that the other ones don't understand me." "That is one of the reasons because not I communicate so much with the other ones." "I hardly ever leave." "Almost anything I interest outside." "The atmosphere is not good for me because I am allergic but I don't know "about the" something." "It is allergic to you even, it is that that is." "Very well, Wey." "I feel that Ihe knows better now that I heard his/her self-portrait." "It was that the objective:" "To count things." " He/she had to be him." "When it is he is good." "When we are us, it is never good." "That is not true." "When Wey makes the things well me Ihe congratulate the, and if you do the things well, I will be the first to congratulate them." "Rabah, read for us his/her self-portrait." " No." "How can Ihe congratulate if you don't read?" " I don't need that." "Decide!" "We are waiting." "My name is Rabah, I am 14 years old," "I hear rap." "I adore my village in Cabília and I am going all there of the years." "Music taste rap and the slan." "I have two siblings but I don't like the school." "I don't like of cheap." "Taste of Zidane," "I like to speak and taste of the videos Psy 4 of there Rhymes." "We are going Marseilles!" "We can pass without Marseilles." " We are going Paris Saint-Germain!" "We didn't need that in a self-portrait." "He didn't read everything!" "He/she jumped two lines!" "Stop with that!" "Return, expensive!" "I like to do love." "I never wrote that!" " I like to settle for them, and taste a lot of the summer to can to see the neckline girls." "Because no, Rabah?" "I never wrote that!" "He/she seems his/her letter." "Does it think is my letter?" "No, it is not." "It is not shame any to like of the summer to see the girls' necklines." "It is not sinned." "Souleymane, for of balancing and read for us his/her self-portrait." "I am very curious." "Here he/she doesn't have "ah, no."" "I didn't write anything." " But there is still little saw writing you." "No, I didn't write anything." " He/she wrote, yes." "I didn't make anything." " We are waiting." "My name is Souleymane." "I don't have anything to say on me because only I am that I know myself." "He/she already arrives, it already arrives." "Very well." "Maybe a little too long." "Because it is that no if did he/she make an effort how the other ones?" "I don't like to speak of my life, only that." "And because it is that the other ones made an effort for their lives and you to count..." "That is their problem." "I don't like to speak of my life." "He doesn't know is to write, it is that!" "Because it doesn't shut up, oh police?" "Are you speaking to me, police?" "Criminal, guilty!" " He/she already arrives!" "Will arrest people, instead of speaking with me." "Does he/she already have the handcuffs?" "It is good that you are quiet!" "You have bad breath." "It is better to silence the mouth!" " Did he/she already hear to speak in Aquafresh?" "Souleymane, it is not worthwhile to offend." "He/she wants that me Ihe lends my toothbrush?" "You are much better in the insult oral than in the writing." "Him nor he/she knows how to write his/her own name!" "He/she is quiet there!" "What is that is written here?" "Save us of his/her Corão." "He/she shuts up." "Which is the problem of Corão?" "You will arrest in a cell until calming down!" "And is that Corão, some time?" " Less noise!" "It is Corão, it shuts up." " What tattoo is that, Souleymane?" "Because it is that is showing her?" " He/she says that is Corão." "What tattoo is that?" "Because it is that is showing her?" "He/she means silences the mouth!" "He/she doesn't want to say anything of that!" "Then give us the right translation." "Go there, tell us." "I don't want." "He/she is showing at my room of class, for that tells us what wants to say." "Remember well than it is written here:" ""If that has to say is less important that the silence, remain silent. "" "It was what I said!" " It was not anything!" "It was yes!" "I said." " It was not anything." "Because it is that is not the same thing that he said?" "It is different." "And I think is more beautiful." "Very well said." "Souleymane, if you wrote those such interesting things in the paper it would be extraordinary." " I also find." "This proof that you can vazer." " He is an unable one!" "Now that we read some self-portraits, he/she would like that you they redrafted them and they improved them, assuring that you/they answered to the questions that we did in the beginning of the class:" "the one that taste and what doesn't like, my qualities and my flaws, what is that would like to be..." "Among!" "Good morning." "Get up, please." "That is also for the ones that are there behind." "We go there, get up." "Didn't Chérif, hear him/it what I said?" "All have to get up." "Remember that is this the form of greeting an adult." "It is not a sign of submission or humiliation." "Very well." "They can sit down." "I came to present to you a new student." "He/she calls himself Carl." "I hope you/they do with that him if it feels welcome in that group to the end of the year." "Thank you." "Carl..." "He/she sits down in the 3rd line, in that free place." "Khoumba, please, remove their things then." "Catch a leaf and a pen and try to accompany the rest of the group." "We talked later." "Don't forget about the work that you/they have that to give at the 2nd fair without lack, for us to put an end to this." "See you later." "Carl, be here one more minute." "See you later." "Adios, señor!" "Welcome." " Thank you." "I don't know if they told you but I am Mr. Marin, teacher of French and group director." "If he/she has some problem, come to speak with me." "I know who you are..." "Or better, I know because it is here." "The director told me, but for me he/she doesn't have importance." "We will start from zero." "I think will run everything well." "Well, as he/she saw..." "We are writing self-portraits that you/they have to be given in the 2nd." "It would be good if it got to do an also." "Does he/she know when the next class is?" "2nd fair, to the 9.30." "Very well." "Does he/she like of French?" "As every world." "That doesn't mean big thing." "Go, it can go." "See you later." "What does the one know a self-portrait is?" " Yes." "Is he/she sure?" " Yes." "A good morning for you." "A lot of pleasure." "He/she sits down, please." "Thank you for they have come." "I know that is not easy." "We are a lot happy with Wey." "Very happy." "All of the teachers in the class piece of advice they agree." "He is polite, nice..." "It is very good to have him/it as student." "And that is visible for his notes." "With they can see..." "He/she always has good marks the mathematics." "He is good in the mathematics." "13 in 20." "But in French he/she has here one 9..." "He still doesn't speak very French, but that is natural." "He speaks a lot." "He/she speaks to me about a lot of things." "He/she speaks a lot about the computer." "It is his beach." " Even very late." "Does he/she think he works until late?" " Yes, very late, to sleep not a lot." "It is later, the school not to be good." "The eyes later get sick." "Yes, yes, the eyes..." "Him until it can pass a lot time in the computer, but, for the time being, the things are going well at the school." "He works well and it doesn't seem tired." "Thank you." "Nassim..." "He/she would like that him..." "He/she wanted him to go far." "Everything has that needs." "With his age, he/she didn't have so much luck." "I protect him/it." "Everything that he to need, I arrange." "But he has to make an effort." "I don't have problems with him home, but it would like that it continued studying." "Me and his mother we would like of having pride in him." "It is that that we demanded." "I think agree in the diagnosis and in what it is necessary to do." "It is incredible as they are similar." " All are similar in the family." "Because it is." "An adolescent that speaks with the family, that he/she has good marks, that he/she has friends, although it is a little lonely, can a marginal one be considered?" "He/she is a boy that speaks to adults, that is capable of true dialogue." "Maybe it is not like this with you, but he/she doesn't stop being an adolescent trying to define." "I was terrible student in the school during years." "He/she refused the idea of a system that he/she forced us to accept norms." "Does it inconvenience him/her that he gets dressed of black?" "Is that?" "His look Ihe irritates?" "I don't understand." "I would like that him it went for to Henri IV." "Henri IV?" "Do excuse to ask, but because?" "It is again the subject of the patterns..." "She thinks that..." "Because they have patterns very high." "A mother wants the best for his/her son." "She is afraid that me me feel lost in the secondary because the others were in good deprived schools and the school Dolto is not like this." "It is a feather that the teachers..." "I don't want to accuse anybody..." "He/she doesn't do badly, accuse." "It is a pleasure." "Because it is that exactly not to level for the good students a little more, instead of doing to stagnate because of the students more medium?" "My mother invents things." "The school Dolto is not bad." "I didn't say bad." "He/she said that was of medium level." "He/she didn't say that was bad." "We spoke enough of Souleymane in the group piece of advice." "Some teachers if they complained about his attitude, that is more and more negative." "Most complains about him not to bring the material." "When it is going to the classes, because it lacks a lot and it arrives late." "I think were aware." " No, we were not." "Souleymane told us that he/she worked a lot." "Can he/she translate?" " She doesn't believe." "He had already taken some warnings in his notebook since September, 3 months ago." "They were warnings that marked the problems that were happening." "But she signs the warnings without knowing, because he/she doesn't know how to read." "But do you also read the warnings, or not?" " Yes, but I am his brother." "Do understand?" "But did he/she know that there was a problem?" "No, he/she didn't know." "Whenever I ask, he says that is everything well." "Does he work home?" "It is locked at the room, I don't know.." " I notice..." "She says that he/she doesn't understand the warnings." "I already understood." "But now they are aware of the situation." "Say-Ihe officially that exists a problem." "You have to speak with him." "I will speak to him on this." "Maybe..." "Maybe to talk with his father could help." "I will speak to my father and we will see what can do." "This is not a settling of accounts." "We want to help for him to improve." " See you later." "Is his/her mother?" " Of course yes." "Face, that ugly!" " His/her old one is that it is ugly, and you also." "Is she of ugly face or something?" " No, it doesn't like is of being photographed." "I and my brother annoyed her." "We will enter!" " Teacher!" "Souleymane brought pictures for his self-portrait." "To that, mine pictures are not worth anything." "That is a good idea." " He/she arranges one for you!" "The painters make self-portraits." "The photographers also." "I am not painting." " Yes, that I know." "We will enter." "The caps, please." "Good morning." "In my free times I play guitar." "If they are still writing hurry to finish to leave the other friends they write his/her self-portrait." "Souleymane, don't make that to explode!" "Everything is well." " What does the one know is doing?" "Since it is a genius of the computer science, then it puts everything in the place again." "Don't worry." "I am counting on you." "Is everything well, Carl?" " Yes, teacher." "Cannot I see?" " No, not yet." "Teacher?" "How is it written Lafayette?" "What is that he/she wants to say?" "As in Galerias Lafayette." " Because it is that he/she wants to speak in that?" "Because I am going there a lot of times and he/she wanted to increase him/it to my text." "That strange!" "That is to 4 meter stations." "For who doesn't leave the neighborhood, that is a great jump." "We are not stupid!" " We are girls of the city!" "Walk in the neighborhoods of the center of Paris?" "I am going to all." "To 1 º, 5th, 20th, 12nd, 19th..." "What is that will do in the 5th?" "In the 5th, I will visit my friends of the school." "To the foot of Luxembourg." " Is he/she going to the Gardens of Luxembourg?" "To the gardens no, to Luxembourg." "The country?" "No, the station of subway of Luxembourg!" "Then, after all always they leave!" "I already saw that you/they made peace." "That is with us." " He/she doesn't have to do anything with that." "How is it that it is written Lafayette, then?" "Lafayette is written" "L" " TO-F-TO-Y-AND-T-T-AND." "With capital letter in the beginning." "He/she is much better!" "Much better." "It is true, it is a good picture." "He/she could increase a legend." " What is a legend?" "It is type a history or a story." " It is not well that." "It is a small text that it accompanies the pictures in the newspapers." "How in he/she Reads him/it Parisien?" "I eat for instance in he/she Reads him/it Parisien, yes." "What did you write here?" "Who is that woman?" "It is my old one." " What does that mean?" "My mother." " He/she can say that is his/her mother." "Then it can explain because it is that she is making her that refutation gesture to the photographer." "Because him and the brother they annoyed her." "I won't write that!" "Because it is that she is making that gesture?" "She doesn't like to be photographed." " Then he/she writes that." ""My mother dislikes to be photographed."" "That is that is a legend." "Did he/she understand?" "Make the same with the other pictures and it is clear." "Did he/she already print all?" " Yes, I already ended." "They are great." "What is making he/she, teacher?" "As he/she sees," "I am sticking their pictures to have a group vision." "The others read the self-portraits in public, and you will stick openly his/her self-portrait." " But my pictures don't render." "It is not true." "They are very good." "ah, goes..." "If a student makes a good work, I like that the whole group sees." "He/she can only be enjoying me." "No, only earring with you if you to think can do better." "But that is good." "Game Tá!" "If they already ended, come here to see the masterpiece of Souleymane." "Calmly." "I will straighten them." "He/she looks at the tattoo!" "I like to play ball." "Taste of computer games." "I like to play with beautiful girls." "I like to spend vacation in Antilles." "Taste of French fries, of music zouk and dancehall." "I like to see MTV Base and my parents' taste and of my brother."

"I don't like people that you/they cry for everything and for anything." "I don't like techno and of tectonic." "I don't like boys and girls that arm." "I don't like to visit my brother in the prison." "I don't like idols and of the "Rain of Stars."" "I don't like of political, of the war in Iraq, of Goths and of skaters." "I don't like very rigid profs." "I don't like mathematics, of racists, and I don't like Materazzi." "I didn't like to walk in the school Paul Éluard and taste of being here." "Good morning." "I have a thing to say you." "Can I have his/her attention, please?" "I have a thing to say you." "The mother of Wey, a student of the 8th year, it was arrested." "He/she was illegal in France." "It was arrested and it can be judged next week." "It is maybe is deported to China." "He/she wanted to inform you, because I think important." "That strange, the family is already here 3 years ago!" "Because it is..." "But it is even so, if it is in the wrong place, in the wrong hour, it can have a confusion and it is been hit." "And the father, anything?" "The father doesn't also have papers but, it is known reason there, they didn't inconvenience him/it." "To begin, as the lawyers are expensive," "I propose do a collection and that went to the tribunal to try to exercise some influence in the verdict." "And does Wey also have to leave?" "For the time being, not, but it is never known." "Good, now I am feeling stupid middle." "He/she had a thing to say, but I think is not the right moment." " But he/she already said a lot!" "I am pregnant." "We have to be celebrated!" " Congratulations!" "Is he/she with how many months?" " Two." "It is can drink only a little bit." "A finger." "Good, Vincent!" "He is the specialist!" " I didn't do on purpose!" "Who is that agitated the champagne?" " Thank you very much." "How is it that one will call?" "If it goes a boy, for instance?" "If it goes a boy, it would like that went Enguerran." "Serious?" "It is good to begin the life in disadvantage, since the advantages are so many..." "I hope not!" "It is very nice!" "Do already all have glass?" "Wait for a little..." "Good," "I have two desires." "I have two desires." "The first it is that the mother of Wey stay in France." "And the second it is that my son is as intelligent as Wey." "Jackie Chan!" "He/she goes, it plays!" "I didn't make anything!" "He fell alone!" "He/she passes, Souleymane!" "What is that he/she says now, boy from Mali?" "What is that you want, Caribbean of shit?" "I will put an end to you!" "I put an end to his/her race!" "I catch you!" "He/she will make a beak for Thierry Henri!" "Be here." "He/she will speak loudly for all they hear you and try to convince them." "It can begin." "The Cup of the African Nations he/she is almost beginning." "I am happy because Morocco will participate." "It is the best team of the world, in my opinion." "The one that annoys is me that mine friends from Mali won't play." "It is a feather for them." "Their level was weak and they didn't get if it classifies." "Morocco until he/she could have left them to do a friendlier game, but 4-0 are hard." "4-0 how?" "When Mali played against Morocco, they took 4 -0." "But what is eccentric it is that when Mali doesn't play it is as if all the Africans that are here they stopped being African." "Whenever there is an African Cup they are completely crazy, but when Mali doesn't play almost nor they feel lack them." "It is very strange." "Then, in function of Mali to play or not to play in the African Cup, the Africans of the group can to feel Africans more or less." "Thank you, Nassim." "I have the sensation that his/her opinion goes to his/her friend, Souleymane." "To that stupid Moroccan nor I feel to the work." "Arthur, you are the neighbor." "I already saw that he/she brought annotations, as a politician." " Exactly." "Very well." "Speak loudly, Arthur." "Emerald, let him speak first." "I want to defend my look, because there are a lot of people that dislikes him/it." "I don't talk about their clothes, therefore they cannot speak about mine." "The clothes is a freedom of expression, therefore I get dressed as he/she wants, and you get dressed how they want." "I get dressed like this to be different and not to follow the other ones, as a sheep." "I think you it is that is a sheep!" "I feel better being me even and no equal the all the other ones." "But I also think if there were 22 here Gothic and just one like you, they would be quiet." "It is not that the case." "Arthur, I think there is a contradiction in his/her speech." "You say that he/she wants to be you even." "But do those clothes correspond to you?" "It is that those clothes are used for countless people." "Most of the people that he/she gets dressed it is like this melancholic in the interior, therefore we are all seemed." "If they are all seemed and melancholic, then it is not you." " We tried to be different." "They are different and seemed." "Thank you for having taken a position and for the courage that had." "Boubacar, goes there." "Boubacar, my friend!" "We will hear him/it." "I come here to answer to Nassim." "He said that I eat Mali was not classified for the Cup of the African Nations, the black Africans don't have a team to support." "But he is forgetting of Costa of the Ivory, that he/she has a player that is a symbol, Didier Drogba." "Didier Drogba is stronger that all the Moroccans." "Didier Drogba plays in Chelsea." "That Moroccan is it that plays in England?" "All play in France and still they want to speak!" "I already finished." "Thank you, Boubacar." "I think that correction it was really indispensable." "Who follows?" "Carl, is his/her time." "Actually, he/she wanted to say that they don't stop annoying us with the Cup of Africa." "Already in the recreation not they remained silent with his/her cup." "It is still not even it began..." "Carl, I went very educated with you." "Excuse to interrupt him/it, but which is his/her selection?" " France." "Then because you say that is it Caribbean, instead of French?" "But we are French!" "It is a French area!" "Then because it is that he/she doesn't always say what is French, but Caribbean?" "It is the same thing." " I don't find." "He/she looks at our players:" "Thierry Henri, Wiltord, Abidal, Thuram..." "And Diarra, where is it that plays?" "He/she doesn't play in Mali, my brother, it is not like this so crazy." "He/she shuts up, expensive, that I am not your brother!" "A monkey like you, stupid..." "That is not for if they irritate." "He/she has just arrived and it already thinks is the boss." "They can speak calmly." "This is not a contest of insults." "It is a debate." "Souleymane, care with the language." "He is nervosinho!" "He/she catches his/her finger and it puts in that place!" "Stop with those vulgarities!" "He/she already arrives!" "I am not speaking to you!" " But I am speaking to you!" "That is manageable of speaking with a teacher?" "Now already it arrives!" "Catch their things and come with me." "I am speaking to you!" " Don't scream with me, right?" "I catch you outside, his/her bichinha!" " Don't they know how to speak usually?" "Be quiet." "Can it hurry?" "Walk!" " Don't play me!" "You don't get tired of putting in confusion as a fool?" "Yes?" "Good morning." " Good morning." "Excuse to inconvenience him/it." "He/she brought a hooligan that me he/she disrespected at the classroom." "He/she didn't say to sit down, Souleymane." "I have to return for the room." " I take care of this." "He/she can sit down now." "I am hearing." "Can it explain to me the one what happened?" "He/she finds certain that the teacher interrupts the class to bring a student to the director?" "Results... very agitated... a lot it chats in the room" "Soon afterwards, we passed to Louise that is present here today." "It is the great disaster of the group." "What will make with you?" "No, it is very well." "Always very well, I would say." "It is a happiness to have a student like her." "It is necessary to say..." "Then, we will propose the recommendation of that young one?" "Clear!" "I apologize for not being completely in agreement with you." "Her value in the group is relative, of a numeric point of view." "But a recommendation?" "She still has to his/her front a margin of enormous progress, and I don't think she has a student's attitude that deserves really one recommendation." "But that is the problem of the recommendations." "They are purely numeric, mathematical, or they are also in function of the attitude and in the way how it assumes the leader's of the group paper?" "He/she is saying that, to obtain a recommendation he/she has to be an excellent student and, at the same time, the leader of the group to be?" "We will make the recommendation this period, and Louise, that he/she is an intelligent girl, he/she notices that will have to make an effort more to satisfy their desires." "To proceed, Chérif." "Our friend Chérif." "I have a great problem with Chérif." "He/she is a boy with capacity, and he/she would give a great student." "He/she was able to easily Ihe to give a 17, but as conversation a lot and it disturbs the operation of the class, his average is very weak." "And it is a feather." "He/she has a behavior very irregular." "Sometimes, it is a disaster and we didn't manage to do anything with him, and other times it is great." "What is that we tell Chérif?" "A warning on the work or about the behavior?" "In my case, it is behavior, and I don't work." "In my class, it is more work." "I think one more problem of work." "Looking at his notes..." "Mathematical: 6." "French: 8." "History and Geography: 9." "English: 95..." "With license." "Sciences: 12." "Music: 11." " His notes are plenty low, but I think that there is a problem of behavior." "Because it is that no Ihe just say that, and we left the work of side, for the time being?" " Then I will write: "Chérif," ""it can get better since"" ""change his/her attitude"" ""in relation to the work. "" "We will pass to Souleymane." "Souleymane..." "I am not me that will begin." "What is that we say?" " Badly." "And the one what more?" "We talked about the case of him in the first period, and I think we already said everything." "He/she has great gaps, namely in the written expression." "I don't think so there is anything of extraordinarily new to refer in this 2nd period." " Already if it feels better, Emerald?" "He/she didn't know that was so funny to be delegated of group." "We were speaking of Souleymane." "He/she wanted to increase to the that François said that during this period him he/she almost always forgot about the material and he/she didn't make great thing." "And it is not alone that, it is much more than that." "He/she is more and more abused." "It impedes the others of they work." "Can I say a thing, please?" "Yes, Emerald, like this that to release that cookie." "I should remind her that is prohibited to eat at the classroom." "Good, the truth is that his average it arose from 6,75 to 725..." "Therefore..." "On that moment, we are not discussing the notes but the behavior." "I am under the impression that we should consider an action to discipline." "The behavior is very bad." "With me it is simple." "Of two in two classes, I put him for out." "Me already nor I put for out." "Because, whenever that happens, he is happy." "It is not worthwhile." "I think with him, the action to discipline won't be fast, because it is like this that the things they will be same badly." "But they are already very badly." "He/she already passed of the limits." "Or else, as we asked the other ones what do have a good behavior?" "And I should remind, Mr. Marin, that yesterday you took him/it to my cabinet." "Yes, but yesterday it was the first incident of the year." "He was rude, and I had to impose limits." "I did what did, but I think that was an incident that he/she won't repeat." "Since the beginning of the year that I am not complaint rights, removing what happened yesterday." "But our work is not to assure that the students feel quiet in the bottom of the room and be quiet." "We have to call attention for them!" "I don't want to do that with threats and punishments." "I prefer to value what he does well." "And there are things that interest him/it." "He says and he/she makes quite good things." "Under the excuse that, once and for all in when, he makes good things, we will leave the boy put there in the bottom without doing anything." "That is to buy the social peace." "Dictated that, what is that we say?" "The one that is it that we do?" "A warning?" "I think is not of one warning that he needs." "The best would be to say that Souleymane he/she already passed of the limits, because, of the point of view school, it is limited." "That is very beautiful, but I am tired and I need to fill out this picture." "What is that we wrote?" "He/she is not able to one to say that!" "Three verses in a verse?" "What name does give to that?" "Wey?" "A trio." " A trio." "Very well." "And if he/she had four verses, Wey, that name would have?" "A block." "A block." "It is easy." "The name is seemed." "Trio, three verses." "He/she squares, four verses." "And how many syllables do the verses have?" "Who is that he/she knows how to answer?" "Khoumba?" " I know that here there is 10." "Do you know that there are 10?" " Does he/she want Ihe to show?" "They are 10." " You say..." ""Noir-dans-there-nei-ge... "" ""et-dans-there-bru-me. "" "He/she has two syllables more the because it is counting the "and" mute." "It cannot tell them, because they are mute." ""Noir-dans-there-nei-ge et-dans-there-bru-me. "" "They are 8." "We will underline all of the syllables." "In "ils-be-cou-tent. "" "Then I return the that." "Two octossílabos and a verse of four syllables." "what is there?" " 11,47 give... 11,5?" "are 11,47 the number of syllables?" "No, it is my average." "He/she went down!" "And what is that that has to see with the poetry?" "They lowered my average!" "11,47 are 115." "Who is that he/she told you his/her average?" "He/she still should not have her." " It was the Emerald that bad he/she said." "After all the group police officers to they worked." "They gave their averages." "Is he/she playing?" "I got tired of doing annotations!" "I was with the impression that not they were very attentive in the meeting." "Louise, I am impressed." "They made a great work of transmission of information." "I will continue with the poetry, if they don't matter her." "The rule is to count when there is a consonant, and not to count..." "I have a question." " What was?" "I heard to say that yesterday in the meeting the teacher pursued me." "Plus other comment on the poetry." "I am not speaking about poetry." " Well, I see that you don't speak about poetry." "What does want to say with it "pursued?"" " I don't know, but they "pursued" me." "There were people, no me, that you/they said that if it continued like this..." "Some teachers said that continuing like this you will have problems." "It was not treated of they "pursue" you." "But that is revenge." "I don't understand." "Do the teachers want to avenge of me?" "What is that that has to see with revenge?" "They are said that me I will arrange problems, is that revenge, or not?" " He/she doesn't have to do anything with revenge." "Why not?" " Of course no!" "We are not in the street." "We are Ihe preventing." "We are not here for us to avenge ourselves, but to impose the discipline." "Does he/she notice the difference?" "No." "When a judge he/she condemns a person, it is not to avenge of her." "It is simply to do with that the society works." "The teacher wants to avenge." "He/she has any thing against me." "It thinks I don't have anything else to do besides taking revenge of you?" "It thinks I wake up in the morning and I say:" "Will I take revenge of Souleymane?" "You say that he/she doesn't have anything to do, but yesterday you got tired of insulting me." "Souleymane, he yesterday insulted you a lot!" "What did he say, Louise?" "He said that was limited." "Until I underlined, because I was shocked." " Me?" "Limited?" "Very well, very well..." "Louise, Emerald, which is exactly his/her role of police officers?" "It is to represent the students to assure the good operation of the group, or that that here turns a brothel between me and their friends?" "We only made our work." "We told what happened in the class piece of advice." "With certainty." "It was not that the impression that I had." "When I saw you to the risinhos in the meeting, I felt shame." "Shame for you." "It was neither the hour nor the place for us to do that." "I didn't think very serious." "Nobody more it was inconvenienced." "He/she is wrong!" " Only you that was inconvenienced." "No, it inconvenienced me and it inconvenienced to the other ones also." "No, not..." "Only voê that was inconvenienced." "Excuse, but to the they laugh like this they seemed two cheap." "The something?" "Is he/she crazy?" "That is not said!" "He/she cannot treat us of that." "One don't say to "treat of." It is said to insult." "It cannot insult us of cheap!" "No, not." "It is said "to treat for", or to "insult."" "I insulted them or I called them of cheap, but no the two at the same time." "Yes, yes, continue speaking." " Besides," "Besides, I didn't insult anybody, he/she never said that were cheap." "The one that I said was that in a certain one moment of the class piece of advice" "You had one his/her attitude of cheap." "Did they understand?" "Don't try to make a mistake, you said cheap." "I am not deceiving you." "I am trying to explain the difference." "Teacher, is not spoken like this with the girls!" "He/she looks who speaks!" "He/she is always everybody insulting!" "The teacher now he/she discounts in the girls!" "That number of the nobleman horseman that comes in help of the two ladies don't glue!" " Don't speak to me like this!" "Stop lacking to I respect of their teachers!" "Eui phallus when I want!" "If it continues like this, it goes to arrange serious problems!" "Do you think is durão?" "It is not a subject of force, but of discipline!" "When he/she wants to be hit, it is only to say!" "Stop doing of good!" " Calm down!" "Don't enter!" "Souleymane, to that!" "Don't play me!" "What is making he/she?" " I will leak!" "He/she cannot leave the room like this!" "Is he/she crazy?" "Calm down!" " I release!" "He/she will stop with that!" " He/she already arrives!" "Where does it go?" " He/she leaves me, his/her viado!" "That sadness..." "Report of Incidents" "Is it now it what will do?" "I think we needed to summon the piece of advice to discipline." "That is already too much." "He/she begins with the disrespect, then the fight, with a wounded, and finally, he/she leaves the room without asking authorization." "Actually, there was only an incident, that took great proportions." "A thing took to the other, and there was a chain reaction." "The one that I can do is to take a temporary measure given the gravity of the situation and to suspend Souleymane for 48 hours." "We will have like this some time to make a decision." "Are we combined?" "However, I need to meet with you tomorrow." "Can it go by my cabinet?" "Until tomorrow." " Until tomorrow." "François?" "I need to speak with you." "He/she has been running a rumor..." "A rumor?" "Yes." "Some students came to speak with me and they told me that that you had insulted them during the class." "Who Ihe did say that?" "Louise and the Emerald?" "They told me that he/she had them call of cheap and that that took to the incident with Souleymane." "And did you believe?" "Yes and no, it was for that that I came to speak with you." "And as he/she didn't mention anything in the report..." "If me no I didn't mention..." "What can say?" "But did you do or not?" " The something?" "You called the two of cheap?" "Yes, but Souleymane it is another subject!" "I know that he/she didn't have anything to see with him, I know." "But the rumor is dispersing." "The people begin to speak." "He/she only wanted Ihe to prevent." "Thank you for informing me." "You two." "They made complaint of me." "Thank you very much!" "You are welcome." "They could have come to speak with me." "If the teachers can complain in the class piece of advice, us also, right?" "No, it doesn't work in the same way." "And do they wait for the something with that?" "That the teacher is punished, like us." "What am I punished?" " Yes." "Then, he/she wants to punish me?" " He/she insulted us, it deserves a punishment." "And the one what do you win with that?" " At least, I said!" "Good, it is going Ihe to serve a lot." "He/she knows what is that does he/she mean cheap?" "But that is not a problem, because I never treated them as cheap." "He/she treated, yes." "For me, vagabond means prostitute." "It is not that." " Ah is, yes." "It is not that that means for me." "It is not anything of serious, it is just one girl that laughs her as a brute." "You there, for you cheap does he/she mean prostitute, it is not?" "Clear!" "Will Souleymane be expelled?" "We don't know..." "He/she will have to go to the piece of advice to discipline?" "We still don't know." "It is a possibility." "Stop arranging confusion before there being a decision." "We know that is already everything resolved." "Because that says?" " Because it is always the same thing!" "You cannot speak anything!" "Don't forget that was you that left wound." "But he didn't do on purpose." "The backpack had a metal thing." "Be how it is, the fact is that he lost the head and that is serious." "Teacher, any one can lose the head." "Clear, but later we have that to calm down." " No necessarily." "You calmed down." "No!" "You now are calmer." "No, I am not." "The teacher doesn't know me!" "All of the teachers say that his/her behavior now is great." "They think the something, what did soften me?" "No." "But the fact of having been ordered for here it helped you to notice right the things." "It didn't help me anything." "I don't agree in anything with you!" "To the they make that decision, yours old teachers wanted Ihe to help and if we do the same with the Souleymane will also be to help him/it." "Excuse, but the profs that you/they expel the students, are some "fillhos of the prostitute!"" "Do repeat?" "They are some "children of the mother!"" "It is incredible, I say a word you are welcome and they are all nervosinhos." "You the mother's "son says" and cannot I say anything?" "But they are the mother's" "children even!" " Does he/she already arrive, doesn't it find?" "You say cheap, we say "the mother's" son." "It is the same thing!" "It is not the same thing!" "You need to understand that I am a teacher and I can say certain things and the students no!" "And it is exactly like that!" "You are always speaking!" "They never remain silent!" "Whenever we spoke, the teacher screams." "What is that?" "He/she already arrives, it was enough." "Teacher..." "What was?" "Now it is serious, Souleymane is it going to the piece of advice to discipline?" "Stop with that!" "Until it seems that he/she wants him to go." "Is he/she happy with that?" "No." "He/she knows what will happen if he be expelled?" "He/she will have to go to school." "No, it is not going to another school." "It is automatic." "We are forced to that." "And it will be like this with Souleymane." "You know his father?" "I saw him/it an or twice." "If Souleymane be expelled, the father he/she orders him of turn to their village." "Leave of fantasies." "He will return to Mali." "I think the best is we maintain the cold head." "Don't worry." "He/she cannot smoke here, teacher." "I know, but as he/she was alone..." "It is true that you were a little too far with the girls." "All make nonsense." "But that he/she doesn't explain what Souleymane did." "He is right, François." "I saw Khoumba." "To face of her it was covered with blood." "The one that he did is inadmissible." "That is true." "But that history it was not well like this." "His backpack he/she got right in her by accident, and she began to bleed, because it was in the sobrecilho." "It was alone that." "It cannot ignore that!" "Don't take to evil, but did he/she already see like them speak with us?" " Which is the relevance of that?" "The one that I know is that Souleymane is going to the piece of advice to discipline and later it will be expelled." "It was not forced." " It is quite logical." "We will talk about that." "How many pieces of advice discipline was there last year?" "At least twelve." "They were not so many." " It is very possible that has been." "I know, I am in the piece of advice to discipline, therefore I attended all." "We had an average of two a month, twelve in the total, and they finished all with expulsion." "The piece of advice to discipline it is also a debate place." "Everything albeit there was twelve expulsions, but if it suits there was not another solution." "With twelve expulsions he/she gives for questioning on the paper of the debate." "But twelve in twelve he/she just wants to say... that when a student is going to the piece of advice to discipline is already very late." "Or that was justified." "It is obvious that you/they happened things that justify the piece of advice." "But then, what is that happens?" "What is that can wait of a piece of advice to discipline?" "There are previous stages:" "here in the school we have the pieces of advice pré-discipline, we informed the parents, the students are informed..." "In that case not." " We didn't have time." "But it is very rare." "It is rare because we know that that final punishment exists that allows to ignore us another measured." "And even if used them, the simple fact of expelling a student it is as playing out everything that we tried before." "Yes, but it is also an opportunity for Souleymane if it explains." "In a piece of advice to discipline, it is not spoken." "The students get afraid." "They paralyze." "Exactly." "Let to summarize me." "Souleymane goes to the piece of advice to discipline, it will be expelled and maybe have that to return to Mali." "Is he/she fantasizing or the something?" "I am not, not." "There are students that know him/it better than we whole here, and that you/they know his father, and that you/they say that is probable that he orders him/it of turn for Mali after that." "Some students are threatened with internal schools, but later that never happens." "Almost always they fall through." "There are parents that are always threatening." "We cannot take that into account." "But if there is the minimum risk of a piece of advice to discipline to order him/it of turn to Mali, I don't want to run that risk." "It is eat when we hesitated in punishing a boy." "Because we know that when it goes home, as soon as the door if he/she closes, he will take a beating of the parents." "We know about cases." "But it is not for that that we stopped punishing them, when they pass of the limits." "Be which are the consequences, they don't tell you respect." "How to ignore that?" "I know that the punishment he/she can have that consequence, but I close the eyes, and don't I want to know, is that?" "You cannot wrap up in all of the cases." "There is the violence, if they will be ordered of turn..." "Certain, you have to take that in bill, but after some time..." "There are no presents of Christmas..." "That happens." "It is a beginning subject." "Each one of us has his/her role." "We are not able to to substitute the parents." "Excuse, but if it rewinds the film, it is a stranger chain of events:" "he/she begins with some reprisals, because Souleymane forgets of the material and because he/she answers crooked." "To proceed we began to punish him." "It is later, of punishment in punishment, we arrived to the piece of advice to discipline that we don't know how it will end." "We lost the control." "Clear, sells the things in that way it is very shocking." "But it is not the school that will expel Souleymane." "No longer we controlled him/it there is a long time." "François..." "He/she didn't wait for him so early." "Did he/she already make a decision?" "I think I don't have great choice." "To purpose, Julie told me that he/she had one beats mouth with two students of his/her group." "Yes, with the police officers of group, but it went before..." "Seemingly, he/she called them of cheap." "We can say that yes." "That complicates a little the situation but the problem stays." "It would just like that mentioned that in his/her report." "I don't want that to be used against us in the piece of advice to discipline." "It is not worthwhile to hide him/it, it is better than writes." "I understand." "It would like that read again this before we unchain the procedure." "Then..." "I only have to increase..." "Yes, but without entering in details." "Does he/she agree?" "OK." "Could you take care of the minutes?" "Good morning." ""Carl tried to calm him/it and to impede him/it of leaving. "" ""Souleymane came unfastened abruptly"" ""making the backpack to fly that got right the face of Khoumba. "" ""He/she left insulting everybody and slamming the door. "" ""I didn't go behind him because he/she had to help Khoumba,"" ""whose sobrecilho he/she bled abundantly. "" "Those are the facts that brought us to the piece of advice to discipline." "My lady, that doesn't mean that Souleymane is a bad boy." "It is not for that that we are here." "But, sometimes, a student in the classroom through his/her behavior, volunteer or involuntary, he/she creates an atmosphere that is not favorable to the work and that impedes the group of progressing." "Does he/she understand him/it what said?" "If they allow me, it is true that there were several signs that us they should have left alarmed." "We could have reacted earlier." "But now we are before of an incident, quite violent, and that is inadmissible." "He/she would like to know does he/she have notion of that, Souleymane?" "We are not saying that you are deliberately violent." "The problem is that you don't get to control nor the one that you speak nor what does." "Souleymane, we would like Ihe to hear." "You are here to express yours point of view." "We want to hear." "I am of full sack." "I don't have anything for saying." "Do what wants." "Excuse..." "Gentlemen and ladies..." "Can he/she translate?" "She said that I am a good boy." "That I make them work of house." "And I help my siblings and sisters in the work whenever I can." "I always do the dishes and also I help her when I have time." "We didn't doubt that he is a good boy." "It is not that the problem." "It would like us to turn to his education." "Excuse, but we were able to to center the debate on the facts?" "In first place, he/she would like to say that were surprised for seeing that the teacher involved in that incident participate in the piece of advice to discipline." "He/she seems us highly irregular." "Yes, it is true." "It is strange that is judge and part interested party, at the same time." "In first place," "Mr. Marin was chosen for the administrative piece of advice as the teachers' representative." "Besides, leaning that the incident that it happened in your class Marin he/she doesn't implicate the teacher directly." "I apologize, but in the report there is mention to hard words said for the teacher." "For the that I noticed, he/she called of vagabonds the group police officers." "And that I think a problem." " It is true that said that but it was not anything that he/she said I respect Souleymane." "Leaning that he used as I allege that beats mouth to express yours bad-humor on that day." "He tried to defend them." "For me, that owes to be taken into account." "Excuse, but no there is anything that justifies to lack with disrespect to the teacher, everybody to insult and to leave of the room without permission." "Souleymane, does he/she have some thing to say?" "I don't know." "What is that can say?" "Gentlemen and ladies..." "What did his/her mother say?" "He/she said the same thing that there is little." "She apologizes for me." "They can enter, please." "My lady, the piece of advice he/she already deliberated and he/she decided to expel Souleymane of the school definitively." "He/she will receive the notification for registered letter and he/she has eight days to appeal of the decision." "However, we will make everything for to arrange other school to Souleymane." "Good-bye to all." "Good-bye, my lady." "Souleymane, come to speak with me in the end of the week, please." "The proportions, in Mathematics." "That year, you learned the proportions in Mathematics." "I liked Sciences." "I asked him/it that you he/she learned and no what liked." "But it liked himself it is because he/she learned." "And what is that you did he/she learn in Sciences?" "Everything on volcanos, earth tremors, tectonic plates..." "The convergence and the removal of the terrestrial plate..." "It was fascinating." "Was he/she interested of truth?" "Yes, very well." "In Mathematics, the trigonometry, the theorem of Pitágoras and the theorem of Tales." "I have to ask that stop." "It cannot be thereabout only bragging because he/she learned the Theorem of Pitágoras." "He/she will have to enunciate him/it for us." "If, in a triangle... the two... the two sides they are same to yours..." "If the root..." "If the square on the two sides it goes same to the square to the square of the hypotenuse... then it is a triangle rectangle." "It is more or less that." "It is not more or less." "It is exactly that." "If it is you that says, I believe." "In History, I learned the triangular trade." "There were boats that left of Europe with manufactured products that took for Africa for us to change for men that became slave, and that were taken for America to work." "Then they took to Europe the money that you/they won." "That is the triangular trade." "Chemical." "The something in Chemistry?" "The combustion." "Yes, what is that?" "It is when it is mixed solution of Fehling and glucose." "And what is the one that happens?" "The test tube heats up and color seedling." "And which is the interest of that?" " The interest?" "I know there." "If the teachers teach it is because he/she has interest." "The reproduction." "What is that he/she learned on the human reproduction?" "The human reproduction..." "Well, the sperm he/she enters in the ovum, then we waited 9 months, we make an ultrassonografia and later he leaves." "What is that he/she leaves?" "The sperm?" " No, the baby." "The human being that was in the interior." " OK." "Khoumba?" " Me?" "Yes." "Is that his/her name, it is not?" " Yes." "In Music, I learned to play flute contralto and in Spanish." "He/she learned how to play flute in Spanish?" "No!" "It is not that." "In music, I learned how to play flute." "And I learned other things in Spanish." " Very well." "He/she was able to in the saying a sentence in Spanish?" "Llegan wools vacaciones." "And the one what does that mean?" "The vacations are arriving or the vacations arrived." "I didn't learn anything." "9 months he/she doesn't happen in the school without learning anything." "He/she happens yes." "I am the proof of that." "In the books that we read he/she must have learned some thing." "Their books are a drug." " Are they the something?" "Useless." "And a book that you have read for his/her initiative, for instance?" "Books that I read?" "Yes, the Republic."" "The book the Republic."" ""The Republic of Plato?" " Yes..." "Did you read that?" "How is it that he/she read that?" "It belonged to my older sister." "Does she study Philosophy?" " No, Right." "Then, speak for people." "What book is that?" "There is a guy..." "How if he/she calls?" "He/she calls himself Sócrates." " It is that, Sócrates." "He appears, it stops the people in the middle of the street and question:" ""You are the sure that leaning that what leaning?"" ""You are the sure what do make him/it what you do?"" "It is thereabout goes." "Then, the people they are confused." "And they ask questions." "He is very strong." "What type of questions does he make?" "On that subjects?" "On everything:" "about love, religion, God, on the people, on everything." "It is very good that he/she has read that." " I know." "It is not a book of cheap!" "Wait!" "Wait!" "Before they leave, he/she wanted to give their self-portraits." "One to one." "After they receive yours, they can leave." "It is very legal of his/her part." "What is that?" "They are the self-portraits that you/they wrote and that bound with the picture of the group." "Doesn't he/she still have yours?" "Because it is that put that here?" "He/she looks how it is beautiful." " Stop with that." "Look, you seem a leader." "Good-bye, teacher." "Good-bye." "Good vacations." " For you also." "Teacher?" "What was there?" "I didn't learn anything." "Because that is saying?" "It is not true." "Now there is little, everybody he/she said that he/she had learned some thing." "Comparing with them, I didn't learn anything." "He/she learned as much as they." "They also had to remind." "It is not easy to remember of what we learned." "But I don't understand." "What does with that mean?" "I don't understand what do." "In French?" "In everything." "He/she cannot say that didn't learn anything in any discipline." "That is not true." "I don't want to go for one I study professional." "But it is not worthwhile to think in that now." "Now you go to pass for the 9th year." "You still have a long time for to think in what will do in the future." "It is not evident that you have that to go for a professional course..." "That will depend on yours results next year." "But I don't want." "Let us go!" "Let us go!" "All together ones!"

"Hey, you need a lift?" "Are you hurt?" "Come on." "I'll give you a ride." "A close call, lady." "At first I thought maybe you were an insurance plant or worse." "Last time I picked up a woman it cost me sixty bucks and my watch." "Not that you look like you can handle a gun." "Wrestling match?" "Where you headed for?" "Where you headed from?" "I'm very tired." "A nice night for the beach, wasn't it." "Until the fog came in." ""Let's stop here and look at the moon."" "You dames." "Kidding yourselves it's for the scenery."" "Maybe it bothers me because I've got a kid sister." "You advise them and teach them decent." "Then the first guy that comes along in a flight jacket and a convertible .." "Okay, okay." "Anyway, you got away." "You're lucky." "Yes .." "I'm lucky." "After this, be more choosy, eh?" "Dr Tuttle." "─ Yes?" "Your phone was ringing." "About 9 o'clock." "Dean Rhodes at the university." "He says you're to call tomorrow morning." "Thank you." ""Was it only this morning?"" ""Only this morning."" ""Only this morning."" "Well, as you've probably already guessed by now." "Today's examination deals with conditioned reflexes." "The subject at this time however, is man." "Not animals." "Man with his complex mind." "Continually bombarded by conditioned stimuli of the environment." "Is even more a victim of conditioned reflexes." "That we find in the poor animals we study in cages." "Mr Roberts and Miss Duval, will pass out the questions and blue-books, please." "The honor system is still in force." "Wouldn't you even say hello to me, Bill?" "This morning, I want you to probe your own experiences." "Think of yourselves, your friends." "Your professors, if you like." "However, you may refer to your subjects as .." "Mister X, Mister A and Miss B." "By all means, be discreet." "But there is no textbook and no laboratory .." "Which is as revealing a study as the people around you." "I .." "I want you to think of yourselves mainly when you answer these questions." "Think of your needs, your hungers, your fears." "For these are the things I'm afraid." "Which rule most of us." "That's all." "You have fifty minutes." "Twenty more minutes." "If any student has finished his test." "He may leave his blue-book on my desk and he may leave the room." "Dr Tuttle." "─ Mr Perry, please." "Question 14." "I don't understand it." "Mr Perry, you are disturbing the others." "But if you don't understand a question, step up here and I'll explain it to you." "Thank you." "Question 14." "Oh yes." "What is meant by a "creative synthesis"?" "Do you want a technical definition or a case history?" "No." "I want a general description if you know one." "I don't understand "creative synthesis"." "Mr Perry." "You know a synthesis is a combination of incoming and outgoing stimuli." "As in a kiss?" "Yes." "To use a minor illustration." "Minor?" "It depends on the kiss." "Some can be pretty stimulating." "I'd like to see you when you're mad, doctor." "Pretty soon you'll be fixing your hairpins again." "Mr Perry, for some time I've had a feeling I must have a talk with you." "With pleasure." "Meet me in my office at 5:30." "Be prompt, please." "5:30 it will be." "I just had to talk to you." "Why, what is it this time, Susan?" "No luck with your exam?" "I thought as my faculty advisor you would have more understanding." "I do understand." "I understand you can't fall in love every 2 minutes." "It's not like that." "It's the same one always but he .." "Now, Susan." "You left your own country to come over here and go to college." "What for?" "To get married." "Now isn't that an awful waste of time and money?" "Hello Susan!" "Hi!" "But how can I help you if you won't tell me what or who?" "Because you wouldn't approve of him either." "Everybody has warned me." "My girlfriend." "My mother hates him." "So do I. I hate him." "Yet, you go out with him?" "There is a Prom tomorrow night." "He hasn't even asked me." "That I don't understand." "If he makes you so unhappy, why do you want to see him?" "He only does it to hurt me." "He likes hurting me." "I'll kill him if he doesn't stop." "I'll kill him!" "Hello Susan." "Professor, this is Harry Bryant." "─ Hello." "Come on, I'll buy you lunch." "Excuse us?" "─ Sure." "It's late." "I've been waiting for you." "Oh Dr Tuttle." "You were to meet me in your office at 5:30." "Forgotten?" "─ Oh no." "No I didn't forget you, Mr Perry." "I left a note for you." "As a matter of fact, I've thought it over." "I want you to see the Dean." "I've called him about it." "─ That wasn't very sporting." "We called people like that tattle-tails back in grade school." "But it wasn't like that really." "I just pointed out to him what an exceptional student you are." "You're too good to me." "But you had a few personal problems." "─ How do you know my problems?" "Mr Perry." "You are just too brash." "You may go up to my office and get the note." "It is all in there." "Goodnight." "Dr Tuttle .." "I'm in trouble already." "I'm always in trouble." "That's the trouble." "Alright, I'm fresh." "I admit it." "Dr Wilma Tuttle, I apologize." "Deeply and fully and sincerely, I apologize." "Very well, very well." "But you see the Dean." "He'll appoint you another advisor." "You know, you really have a brilliant mind." "You just walked through my course." "─ You've read my exam?" "No." "No, not yet." "But I'm looking forward to it." "I always do." "Well, goodnight again." "There goes my own bus." "My car is here." "Please, let me take you home." "I'm not taking you out of your way, am I?" "Nothing to do until 6:30." "Then I have to go to the airport." "Having a visitor to the Prom?" "─ No." "I was just interested." "If you were really interested, you wouldn't throw me to the Dean." "My guardian is coming down from San Francisco." "He threatens to take me out of school and put me to work." "Well you mustn't let him do that." "─ But he's a lawyer." "With him you need arguments." "You wouldn't do me a favor would you?" "Have dinner with me." "Give me some angles." "No." "No, I .." "Strictly as a consulting psychologist." "But he's expecting you." "─ I'll see him later." "I'd much rather listen to you scold me." "You would?" "─ Uhuh." "Well, Mr Perry." "You asked for it." "Overindulged by one parent for six months." "Then over-disciplined by the other for the next six months." "A split home, a split childhood." "It wouldn't matter if you weren't intelligent and sharp, but you were." "You are." "Use that intelligence now, to even out your life." "Tell me more." "Alright, I will if you give me more to go on." "I can tell you, you have a beautiful mouth." "I'll overlook that." "You say, you .." "You never want to listen." "That's a bad balance." "Self indulgence." "These things lead to danger, Mr Perry." "To yourself and to others." "Charming and poised one minute and then erratic and poorly controlled the next." "I'm not so poorly controlled, doctor." "Right now, I'm .. resisting impulses." "There you go again." "Trying to divert my analysis." "And that's another symptom." "It indicates that deep down inside." "You're afraid I might show you you're not as good as you think you are." "I do alright." "Oh, Mr Perry." "If you go on believing that, I warn you, you will be an unhappy man." "After all that advice you deserved it." "Well I warned you." "Today we came a long way for it." "I think we'd better be getting back." "But I quite enjoyed it." "─ Even the Martini?" "I don't know why that surprised you." "I have an occasional drink when I dine out." "Occasional cigarette?" "Yes." "I think I will, thank you." "You know, it is curious the impression you get of people." "That I'm prudish." "Did you enjoy your fish?" "─ Yes, fine thanks." "Weren't you in here last week?" "Yeah, I remember." "All that uproar on how to cook that abalone you caught." "What in the world is "abalone"?" "You don't know what abalone is?" "Where are you from?" "─ Kansas." "You don't know what an abalone is?" "No, I never heard of it." "It's a type of mollusc." "Beautiful multicolored shells." "You've seen the shells." "They're used for compacts in the high street." "Oh yes." "─ They give me a kick." "That's what I was about to point out." "They look innocent, pretty." "Live on the rocks under the sea." "You have to dive for them?" "I've some gear." "Got it all in the back." "Goggles, steel spring to pry them loose." "You must keep them alive in a bucket." "Do you call it a sport?" "It's the fight they give you that's important." "It's dangerous." "They look soft and innocent." "They can really get you." "We must have left the highway." "─ We are paralleling." "We'll be back on in a moment." "I want to show you where I go after those abalone." "Well, it really is getting late." "Not that I'm worried about myself, but if you're going to see your guardian .." "Plenty of time." "You know this whole thing started with your complaining about me to the Dean." "Now that you've come over to my side .." "You're going to help me, aren't you?" "We made the journey in no time, didn't we." "Come on." "Get out." "Sorry to give you such a jolt." "Come on." "Listen to those waves." "Almost seventy feet down." "Seventy feet." "─ Uhuh." "Now I want to show you the chances we take." "I don't like it." "I've always been afraid of the ocean." "Don't tell me you have conflicts?" "It is the height." "Doesn't it frighten you to dive from here?" "You have to watch the tide, that's all." "Pick your moment." "The right moment is everything, isn't it." "Mr Perry." "Where are you?" "─ What's the matter?" "Are you afraid?" "Oh .. no." "I can't see you." "I can't see anything." "I've got a couple of suits here." "Thought we'd go for a moonlight swim," "Maybe you are." "I'm going home." "What's your hurry?" "Stay and watch me swim at least." "I'm pretty good you know." "Let's go down to the beach." "Maybe you'll change your mind." "Come on." "You're even more unbalanced than I thought." "Schoolteacher is upset." "Now you go ahead and take your swim." "But I'm going home." "─ Alone?" "You should never go home alone, Wilma." "Let me go." "Please let me go." "That's what I like about you." "I won't frighten you off" "Nobody is going to hear you but me." "Take it easy, eh." "You are hurting me." "Oh, I'm so sorry." "I .." "I .." "Oh you little firecracker." "Don't pretend you don't like it." "You wrote me a note, did you?" "─ My arm, please." "I've written notes to you, too." "A lot of them." "You won't tell anybody about this, will you." "You shouldn't be out here with me." "You're hurting my arm." "Please, my arm!" "Stop!" "Stop it .. stop it .. stop it!" "Stop it ..stop it!" "Stop it ..stop it!" "No." "[ Door knocks ]" "Oh." "Sorry to break in on you." "I'd have waited to clean." "But it was so late this morning, I thought you were up."

"What day is it?" "Saturday of course." "And if you want to go to the bank, you are .." "Aren't you well?" "Oh, you're all burning up." "I'd better get the doctor." "Please leave me alone." "I'll be alright." "What about cleaning up the room?" "─ You can clean up later." "That's a fine good-morning." "Do you really want this blouse thrown away?" "What blouse?" "This one in the wastepaper basket." "No, no." "No." "It must have fallen in there by mistake." "I am going to send it to the cleaners." "Now please Mrs Conner, leave me alone." "Oh, very well."

"Thank you." "I beg your pardon." "I'm Doctor Tuttle." "Oh, how do you do." "─ How do you do." "You are very kind." "I'm .." "I'm sorry you've been ill." "Oh, over-tired mainly." "You know .." "I owe you an apology." "I guess I mistook your gatekeeper for you." "A welcome mistake, I might add." "What will you have?" "─ Coffee, please." "You've eaten?" "No." "Just coffee, that's all I ever take." "Two coffees, please." "No." "No, thank you." "Do you .." "You must think this very strange." "I'm Bill Perry's guardian." "Warren Ford."

"For one thing, he knew I was coming." "He also knows I have to get back." "I don't understand why you come to me." "─ Because you can help me, if you will." "You see, Dean Rhodes forwarded me an anonymous letter." "But I think we've traced it down." "It's one of your exchange students, a girl by the name of .." "Susan Duval." "Mr Ford, I know nothing about Mr Perry's private life." "My point is, you know the girl?" "─ Yes." "I am." "I see she's one your faculty responsibilities." "Yes, she is." "A so-called "nice girl"?" "─ Yes." "Slightly hysterical perhaps, but .." "Maybe she has a right to be." "I've had jams with Bill before but this time it looks serious." "What does the letter say?" "That .." "That she's in trouble." "But Bill won't speak to her." "Won't keep appointments with her." "He doesn't dare tell her mother." "As a lawyer, don't you think you ought to handle this, Mr Ford?" "How did you know I was a lawyer?" "Perhaps it's because you're so cold about this and so unfeeling." "I'm not unfeeling, it's .." "It's just possible you know, that she's lying." "May I have a glass of water, please?" "It's right there, Dr Tuttle." "Sorry, of course." "What is it?" "I haven't shocked you?" "In a way, yes." "I just never thought of Susan and Bill." "There's so many thousands on this campus." "I'm sorry I have upset you." "Well, I'll understand if you turn me down." "I don't know exactly what you want me to do." "I want you to talk to this girl." "And find out if she's the one." "Bill won't help me." "Well, why don't you talk to her yourself?" "I don't want a scandal." "Next thing, she'll go to the Police." "Yes, of course." "Well, I'll do what I can." "Forgive me, Mr Ford." "I really think I'd best go back to bed." "I'm awfully shaky." "Oh yes, certainly." "Ma'am." "Check, please." "I really am grateful." "I have to catch the 2 o'clock plane." "May I call you in a day or two?" "─ Yes, do." "In the meantime, I'll try to locate Bill." "Thanks again." "Dr Tuttle." "Dr Tuttle." "Oh my goodness." "My doctor." "Please, my doctor." "All I can say is .." "For a young teacher aiming to become head of a psychology department one day." "You'd better hang on to your health, young lady." "Oh, I feel fine now, doctor." "Was I delirious for very long?" "─ Oh .. a few days." "Wherever did you learn life-saving, by the way?" "What do you mean?" "─ Oh, you talked and talked." "I did?" "─ Yes, yes." "I hope I didn't say anything embarrassing." "Oh no, no." "Artificial respiration is what I made out of it." ""One, two, water out." "Breath in."" "Didn't she nurse?" "─ She certainly did." "Whose life were you trying to save, Wilma?" "Sometimes you got it all mixed up: "Breath out, water in"." "Perhaps it was my own life, doctor?" "I did feel as if I were drowning." "But your lungs feel alright now, don't they?" "Oh yes." "─ Good." "You can go home tomorrow." "Get this down, and take things easy." "Virus pneumonia is tricky and no-one misses you." "Well." "I have to go and deliver a baby." "The economics professor is having one, believe it or not." "Well, so long Wilma." "Take care of yourself." "─ Thank you, doctor." "Like to go out on the porch for a while?" "─ Yes, I would." "Miss Rice, what's been going on the campus?" "What have I been missing?" "─ You can read it all in The Curriculum." "The Prom was a great success." "Then of course, there is that funeral tomorrow." "What funeral?" "─ Bill Perry." "You must know him." "He was a science major." "He was one of your students, wasn't he?" "Yes, he was .. oh!" "Sorry." "I must be weaker than I thought." "Oh well, it's only natural." "His guardian sent me that orchid plant." "Of course." "That's right." "He's been staying over at the Psi Upsilon Alpha house." "It's a dreadful thing that happened to that Perry boy." "What did happen?" "Was he sick long?" "─ He was drowned." "They only found his body yesterday morning." "A terrible accident." "It happened on that rocky stretch just above Malibu." "I really should call Mr Ford, don't you think?" "Well, yes." "Especially as these orchids don't grow on trees every day." "Here, use this." "I want to pick up some charts." "Hello?" "Will you get me the Psi Upsilon Alpha House, please." "Hello?" "Is there a Mr Warren Ford there?" "Doctor Wilma Tuttle." "Where?" "Malibu." "No .. no, there is no message." "Just tell him that Dr Tuttle called." "Thank you." "John Doe number 45321." "Identified as William Perry, a student at California College." "Approximate time of death fixed sometime between sunset and midnight last Friday." "Body discovered by one Fred White a fisherman, north of Malibu beach." "At 4:55 Tuesday morning." "Body turned over to morgue." "Case to homicide." "On a palisade nearby, a Patrolman found a car registered in the deceased's name." "Guardian Warren Ford of San Francisco notified." "That's all." "Lieutenant, you found no indication of foul play?" "None." "Was there any evidence of anybody being in the automobile with him?" "We found no evidence that anybody was." "But, by the same token, we cannot say for certain that somebody was not." "Had there been anybody in the car there would have been fingerprints." "There were no fingerprints." "Alright." "Thank you, Lieutenant." "We'll take your concluding evidence now, Dr Odolard." "A three-line obituary." "I'll be next door." "In my opinion, death resulted from drowning." "There were also compound fractures of the cranium." "Severe enough to kill him." "But, as there was water in the lungs, death I conclude, was by suffocation." "Doctor .. these head injuries." "You consider them in keeping with a bad dive from the edge of a cliff?" "I think he may have slipped at the last moment." "Surely he became unconscious by hitting the rocks, and slid off into the water." "Doctor." "One point." "In .." "In checking the lungs." "In the lungs, I found a great deal of water." "Salt water." "Several cups full." "Any further questions?" "Thank you, Doctor." "Gentlemen, you heard all the testimony and evidence known to myself as Coroner." "First, the Police report." "Mr Ford's comments, and the opinion of our medical examiner." "Are there any further questions?" "Then will you please retire and consider the verdict." "Too bad about the boy, Warren." "He was a legacy." "I've never been too close to him." "A bad egg, huh?" "You and his father were law partners." "You won a lot of important cases together." "I remember when .." "I'm interested in your testimony about the fingerprints." "Am I going to have trouble with you?" "You said there weren't any." "There weren't." "─ Not even the boy's?" "Look, I'm tired." "I've got cases." "There couldn't have been any prints." "The car had been out in the mist for days." "The weather might have taken them off outside." "How about inside?" "None on the steering wheel, the dashboard, the glove compartment?" "Clean as though it had been wiped with a damp rag." "Fog will do that." "So Bill got undressed, folded his clothes neatly on the back seat." "Got done up to dive, and then wiped off his fingerprints .. that's very logical." "Give it a chance, will you." "You've arrived at your verdict?" "─ Yes we have." ""We, the Coroner's Jury, Los Angeles County, the State Of California."" ""Find that William Perry met death by accidental causes."" "I now declare the inquest officially closed." "Well, it took a lot of pain to do that, huh?" "Oh, it's better this way." "Easier on me." "People get careless when they think a case is closed." "Where you going to start?" "He had girlfriends." "When's the funeral?" "─ Tomorrow at the University Chapel." "Jerry, get this stuff in the car, will you." ""Who is that man?"" ""Not that it matters."" ""Accidental death by drowning."" ""It said so in the papers."" "I just want to know who the bereaved one is." "The name is Susan Duval." "But I would prefer to discuss with you on Monday, Lieutenant." "Thanks for coming, Dean Rhodes." "You know it could wait, Dorgan." "It could wait until next summer." "Who is the boy with her?" "─ I don't know." "I'll see you around." ""Stop it, Wilma."" ""Curiosity and the cat."" ""Your conscience."" "Hi, Doctor." "Glad to see you again." "─ Thank you, Professor." ""Confessing wouldn't have brought him back."" ""It would only have spread the scandal all over the newspapers."" ""I had to cover up."" ""I had no guarantee they'd believe me." "I had to cover up."" "The Minister sure made old Bill sound like a hero." ""Yes." "I did right."" ""Better that he remain a hero."" "Doctor Tuttle." "Doctor Tuttle." "Oh, Mr Ford." "I've been looking for you." "How are you?" "─ Alright." "I didn't even look for you, I heard you were still in the hospital." "I got my doctor's bill this morning." "That cured me." "Sins catching up with you, eh?" "I haven't had a chance to thank you for that orchid plant." "It was beautiful." "It helped a lot." "─ Oh, good." "I'll see you later, Ted." "Is that man a relative of Bill Perry's?" "You're good at keeping secrets." "That's a tough one." "He's a homicide officer." "Homicide?" "He thinks Bill was murdered." "Why, I don't believe it." "─ I don't like it either." "What would you say if I bought you a drink?" "I'd say thank you very much." "─ here." "I've .." "I've got transportation at last." "Our homicide officer turned Bill's car over to me." "A bourbon." "Make it straight." "You sure you won't?" "Cigarette?" "─ No thank you." "You won't faint out on me again, will you?" "You did once, remember?" "─ Yes, I did." "Mr Ford, regarding there's no fingerprints." "If fact, because there weren't any it seems to me .." "That Bill wiped them off himself." "Yes, there are types who would." "No .. he was twisted." "I don't think he was that twisted." "Say, could you turn down that radio a little?" "I'm sorry." "I guess the Minister's few kind words got to me." "I never got to know Bill very well." "I should have." "Now, murdered." "Or suicide, which I doubt." "Not a very pleasant thought." "I need your help." "Your viewpoint." "There's a lot of things about college students I've forgotten." "Do you think he knew about Susan's note to the Dean?" "Its contents, I mean." "I don't think so." "Why?" "Can I have another one of these, please?" "The suicide hunch?" "No, that boy was too conceited to kill himself." "Well what do you think suicide is?" "A little person who thinks his troubles are all that matter in the world." "You hit me right in my inferiority complex." "I mean seriously." "Have you never heard of a Doppelganger?" "No." "I'm sure you're going to tell me." "A Doppelganger is a double-walker." "An extreme form of a narcissist complex." "You mean that Bill was in love with himself?" "From my knowledge of him, he could have been, yes." "He'd turn over in his grave." "He was in love with women." "Thin women, tall women, short, young." "Ripe, unripe." "Uhoh .. there I go embarrassing you again." "Let's leave temptation." "Well, anyway, we'll know more about it after Dorgan talks with Miss Duval." "That's very sweet of you." "You won't think me ungrateful however, if I don't eat it." "I received one of these once, from a boy of twelve." "When I bit into it, the worm was as surprised as I was." "It was the first time I'd ever seen an angleworm in an apple." "It can be done I suppose." "This is not a very happy Monday morning." "I wonder if one of you from the back would mind coming up, please?" "Isn't Miss Duval here this morning?" "She was called to the Dean's office." "Oh." "Which reminds me." "I have a call to make myself." "Professor Hurley planned to lecture you this morning." "He is more thorough than I." "His lecture is written out." "Oh, Miss Parker." "Would you be Professor Hurley." "Oh, doctor Tuttle." "Excuse me, Dean Rhodes." "But Miss Duval here is one of my faculty responsibilities." "I know all about this ." "─ You know .. about what?" "Well Mr Ford told me about .." "─ Yes, I'm afraid I did." "She knows about the letter." "I think she may as well know about the rest." "It's up to you." "It's up to me, isn't it?" "It's your office, I admit." "Dr Tuttle is a psychology professor." "Does make her any less gabby than most women?" "This is Lieutenant Dorgan." "Lieutenant, you don't have to worry about me." "I don't approve of gossiping." "Is this the psychology expert you ..?" "─ She could be helpful, Dorgan." "Alright, doctor." "We forgive you." "But you're wrong about the suicide." "It couldn't have been." "You haven't seen the body." "The way the skull is smashed, the way .." "─ Stop!" "Please don't." "Lieutenant, just because there's some sign someone might have killed him." "No some indication." "Proof." "Proof." "More than you think I've got, Warren." "But who?" "Why?" "And when and how." "That's what I'm working on." "At the moment, all I have is a letter that this little lady wrote to the dean." "I'm not going to have a baby." "It's not true." "I told you." "Susan, why did you write that letter, then?" "I thought if I could get him to see me." "You know how much I loved him." "Oh, it's desperate." "The Perry boy treated her so badly, she could kill him." "That's what she said." "She said it to you." "I don't remember her saying that." "It seems the Lieutenant has a witness to the conversation, doctor." "Harry's been blabbing." "Why .. that's absurd." "If that's all you have against her." "An emotional remark made under such circumstances is quite normal." "Susan couldn't kill anyone." "And why would I want to anyway after he was so sweet?" "Are you so sure you made up?" "He asked me to the Prom." "Isn't that enough?" "Does he always you ask you that late?" "The Prom was the next day." "We hadn't spoken for weeks." "I told you that." "When did he ask you to the Prom?" "Friday, in front of the gym." "About 5:15." "He was so nice." "Where did you go after that?" "To fix my evening gown." "Get it ready." "I was so happy." "Alright, we won't go over that again." "I've got a good memory." "Forgive me Lieutenant, but I like to know." "If I'm to help Susan, I must." "Why try to help her?" "Oh Dorgan, take it easy." "We all want to help her, naturally. ─ Why?" "Well, she's a young girl." "─ Don't give me that." "Are you under the illusion that youth means innocence?" "Today." "Kids killing their parents, their grandparents." "Children killing children." "Sweet sixteen." "They murder their lovers." "I didn't .." "I didn't!" "─ Leave her alone, Mr Dorgan." "Okay, doctor." "Let's take it from another angle." "I don't want you to think I'm even looking for a motive." "Did you ever teach any criminal psychology?" "Yes." "Motive isn't everything, is it." "We've all got them." "Dozens of them." "We don't all have the occasion." "Opportunity, that's the thing." "And after the opportunity to kill," "The desperation and cleverness to cover it up .. right?" "You are speaking of course, of premeditated .." "Not at all." "Given the opportunity, a man can think up a motive." "Scare one up." "I even remember a case that was accidental killing." "The man hated the woman he accidentally killed so much .." "He killed her over and over." "Murdered a corpse, again and again." "That's very shocking." "─ Never heard of it?" "─ No." "I'll send you a book on it sometime." "─ Thank you." "I'd like to read it." "Well, that's all Miss Duval." "I'm sorry." "You are not going to hold me?" "No, just been a friendly little get-together." "Oh, thank you." "We thank the Dean." "We thank you both." "Oh Miss Duval, one more thing." "The last thing Bill said as he left you was that he was on his way to meet a .." "Psycho .. what?" "A cyclothymiac cutie." "Can you help on that, doctor?" "What does cyclothymiac mean?" "It's a psychological term." "A sublimated personality, isn't it?" "─ Yes, that's right." "It was one of the exam questions." "Not that I got the answer." "Describe a cyclothymiac type." "Someone you knew, preferably." "Remember?" "─ Yes." "Yeah." "The proper definition doesn't really matter very much." "I'm more interested in Bill's interpretation of it." "I'd like to have a look at this exam paper." "Could that be arranged, Dean?" "Dr Tuttle will turn it over to you." "Who knows?" "We might even find out who he was with Friday night." "If I'm lucky." "I feel I could just go home and die." "A better idea would be to start thinking up alibis, Miss Duval." "I will be seeing you again?" "I expect so." "Murder is small world." "But I told you where I was." "I was home with my mother the whole evening." "Sometimes we don't trust mothers." "They are likely to be prejudiced." "Can I drop you somewhere?" "No, thank you." "You know, sometimes I wish there two of me." "We generally do work in pairs." "The idea being, one can be mean, and the other one nice." "You manage, I'd say." "In my next life I'll be a Minister." "Never have to pick on anybody but the Devil." "Take you some place?" "─ Back to class, I guess." "Oh by the way, doctor." "Where can I pick up that exam paper?" "Oh, I'm sorry." "It isn't in my office." "It's at home." "When can I pick it up at home?" "I'll bring candy." "Very well." "I won't be there until around seven." "Al Marina Court." "No, wait a minute." "Maybe not." "Let me take you out to dinner tonight." "We put you through a rugged morning." "Thank you." "Thank you." "I'd like that very much." "Alright." "Pick it up and bring it to the office tomorrow." "It may lead us somewhere, right?" "Yeah." "Fine." "Not a bad idea, that dinner angle, doctor." "Too bad I'm married." "Some guy." "He should be married." "That's his trouble." "He's not?" "No." "Too many murderesses and lady pickpockets in his life." "A man does shy off, I suppose." "Yes." "I suppose." "Would you believe that I was once in love with a hatchet murderess?" "Ha, really?" "Of course, I was a little younger then." "One of my first cases." "You were in love with her and she was guilty?" "Who said she was guilty?" "You are talking to her erstwhile lawyer, I'll have you know." "What happened?" "Oh, I got her off." "She was as pretty as a painting." "Ah, Mr Ford." "Afraid it's a little late for my class." "I think I'd better go right on back .." "─ Wait a minute." "It's almost lunchtime." "Why not run over to your place and see how Bill described a cyclothymiac?" "No, sorry." "I have a lunch engagement." "─ Too bad, too bad." "Such a wonderful excuse to play hooky." "You are a bad influence, Mr Ford." "Seven or so?" "─ What?" "Tonight." "Oh yes." "About seven o'clock." "Goodbye." "─ Bye." ""Cyclothymiac cutie."" ""Oh no." "He couldn't possibly have meant me."" ""He even asked me if I'd read it."" ""No." "But I'm looking forward to it, Mr Perry."" ""There it is.""

""I didn't meet Bill Perry here that day."" ""I didn't wait for him." "I can prove it."" ""That note I wrote to him."" ""That note!"" "Send Jerry in, will you please." "I've just spilled some ink." "I'll have to leave this on for a couple of hours." "Yes, that will be alright." "Oh, Jerry." "Before I was ill, I left a note stuck on my door for one of my students." "Oh yes." "I saw it." "It was there all last week." "What did you do with it?" "─ Oh yes." "It was incinerated." "Gee, I'm sorry." "Nothing important, I hope?" "No, no." "It doesn't matter." "Just a mimeographed schedule I wanted to recommend." "Well, can't you get another copy from the Dean's office?" "What did you say?" "I said, couldn't you get another .." "Copy?" ""Another copy."" ""Copy."" "I'll be back later with the vacuum cleaner." "Yes, alright." "Thank you." "Mr Ford?" "─ In person." "Am I early?" "─ No." "No, I'm late." "There is nothing abnormal about that." "Count to three before you come in, will you." "I'm not very good at arithmetic." "Well, here I am." "Are you hiding?" "Yes." "In a way, I am." "I don't go out very often." "It deserves some doing." "Make yourself at home." "─ Thanks." "Nice little place you got here." "Where is the bar?" "You won't recognize it." "It looks like an icebox." "How do you take your firewater?" "─ Oh, none for me." "By the way, I got out Bill's blue-book." "It's on my desk there, somewhere." "Anything interesting?" "There is a note there that might interest you, too." ""Why should they identify me from his blue-book?"" ""Dorgan saw me only once."" ""And Mr Ford when I was sick and later at the funeral."" ""Cyclothymiac type."" ""Hardly."" "This is addressed to Bill." "Yes, it's one that I wrote to him." "I had forgotten about it until I went to my office today." "He never came for it." "It's just a school note." "─ It's written that same Friday." "There are several paragraphs analyzing him." "I thought you might like to read it sometime." "Yes, the Dean might have handled him." "You were right." "Too bad you didn't turn him over sooner." "Sure you're not the "cyclothymiac cutie" Bill had the date with?" "A session with a professor, a date?" "I doubt it." "Ha, I couldn't blame him." "Whenever you're ready." "Who are you?" "It's brand new." "My whole month's salary." "You like it?" "Again." "There." "─ Phew." "It's remarkable." "Your brains don't show a bit." "If I can help it, they never do when I'm stepping out." "Of course, now you've spoilt it all." "Have you never heard of women looking different in the evening?" "I was hoping this was just for me." "Well, if it will make you feel any better, it was." "The way I feel right now, I don't usually feel until I bring a lady home." "In that case, I think we ought to go." "─ Yes, I think we'd better." "I don't want the world to miss a bit of you." "Now, you're sure you'd recognize her if you saw her again?" "Oh sure, sure." "Yeah." ""Lieutenant Dorgan." "Warren Ford to see you."" "Send him in." "Look, you wait in here." "We'll go on with this, later." "Good morning." "─ Good afternoon." "How was your date last night?" "You mean you forgot it?" "─ No, not that date." "I got to make a call." "─ Use my phone." "Not this call." "Thanks very much." "He thinks he's kidding me." "Tell him to have her drop in." "─ Okay, Chief." "Now watch this." "He hardly even noticed it." "─ He didn't even stop." "No, naturally not." "A rat is not complicated." "Man is." "That's our problem." "Now suppose instead of a pencil in front of a rat, we place this pointer there." "In front of a man." "Now the first time a man sees the pointer he will probably step over it." "But suppose he .." "Telephone for you, Dr Tuttle." "Oh .." "I'm terribly sorry." "Forgive me, will you." "Yes?" ""Hello Dr Tuttle." ─ Yes?" "No, I don't want Dr Tuttle." "I want the entrancing female I was with last night." "Warren, how are you?" "I'm in class right now." ""Oh those lucky students." "I'm hard hit, though."" "I'll see you tonight." "Sooner, you witch." "You threw me such a loop last night, I forgot the exam book." "Dorgan wants it." "You're with Dorgan?" ""Yes I'm down here at his office."" ""He wants you to bring it after you're through this evening."" ""He says he's got something interesting lined up."" "I can't .." "I can't possibly." "Oh sure you can." "We can go out from here." "Only don't you forget the book, too." "If you start being as barmy as I am, you know what people will say?" "No, what will they say?" "That it's spring." "I won't be able to get there before 5:30, Warren." "Is that alright?" "That's alright." "Do you know where it is, The Hall Of Justice building?" "Yes, I know." "Thank you and goodbye." ""I can't take that book down there." "I can't."" "I'm sorry." "Now, where were we?" "Oh yes." "Man and the pointer." "But as I said, the first time the man will probably step over it." "But suppose he has to pass it again and again." "Man, unlike the rat." "Is finally trapped by his own curiosity." "Against his will, he becomes involved." "What is it?" "Who put it there?" "Why doesn't somebody pick it up?" "He's torn." "Diverted." "He shouldn't stop to bother about it, but he can't help it." "Heindrick calls this "becoming aware of the field"." "A thought process that you would probably call "reasoning"." "But remember, sometimes this process of reasoning." "May take a man out of his way." "Upset his plans." "It may even lead to his own destruction." "The justice that lives in high places." "Kind of pretty, isn't she." "You know doctor, you ought to sue the University." "Who makes up these yearbooks?" "Did you ever see your picture here?" "No." "And if its dreary, I don't want to." "And don't you dare show it to Mr Ford." "Oh, not to Mr Ford, eh?" "What is this?" "Look, if I clear up this murder, will you go home and give me a chance?" "Yes, I guess I'll have to." "─ Well, I don't want to hurry you." "But, you better start packing." "No, you're not that close." "─ No?" "Send in the witness." "The witness?" "Since when have you had that up your sleeve?" "Since noon." "I like to show off a bit too, you know." "Thank you." "The witness to what?" "The crime?" "─ I wish." "But, just as good." "A truck driver." "He picked up our killer the night of the murder." "You are not impressed?" "Oh yes." "Yes, I'm very impressed." "Well, it was a long-shot, but it paid off." "First, I checked the transportation companies along the coast." "To see if they had picked up a woman anywhere near those bluffs." "Why a woman?" "That, no-one can talk me out of." "Then the truck companies." "They didn't know, naturally." "Truck drivers aren't supposed to pick up riders." "So to the drivers themselves." "A good witness?" "─ Perfect." "Coöperative." "Got a good memory." "About a quarter past ten he said." "Near the Malibu line." "I suppose you still think that Susan is the girl?" "Yeah .. but if I'm wrong, you can look at this." "A cute rogue's gallery." "Nice little bobbysoxers." "Here is your man, Chief." "─ Come in, Hunter." "Sorry to keep you hanging around." "It's okay, Lieutenant." "Except I got to meet a girl for dinner." "Let's go, huh .. turn around, lady." "Wait a minute." "Are you kidding?" "That ain't her." "This is Dr Tuttle of California College." "She's one of Perry's professors." "Yeah?" "Well, it still ain't her." "No-one said she is." "On the level, you're a professor?" "Maybe I should have gone more to school, huh?" "Look Hunter, you don't read enough detective stories." "You don't think we let the suspect know she's going to be identified, do you?" "Color of hair, clothes." "They can be changed too easily." "Sometimes we identify them with pictures." "Sometimes with moving pictures." "Step over here." "Warren, will you draw those blinds for me, please." "Is this a gag?" "Who's that?" "You don't have to whisper." "They can't hear you." "Well, Hunter?" "No." "No snap judgments, now." "Take your time." "No, she was older." "I figured she was a married dame playing around." "Gee, I don't know, Lieutenant." "If I could only hear her voice." "You can have sound too." "You're still jealous of him!" "I don't know why anybody should talk badly about him." "Ah, that's a foreigner." "Your rider had no accent?" "─ No, not a trace." "Did she talk much?" "Well, she was kind of beat up." "She didn't feel much like talking." "Or just smart, so you wouldn't catch her voice." "Oh, I'd remember her voice alright." "I go for voices." "Are you sure you'd remember her voice?" "Ah, sure, sure." "Did she give you an idea where she lived?" "I didn't ask." "I don't like busting in on people's business." "Now, if you've finished with me, I'd like to go." "Just as soon as you look through this." "Kodinsky." "─ "Hi, Chief."" "Give my boy a nice, quiet corner where he can look at a picture book." ""Okay."" "If you want me, I'll be in the lab." "─ Now look, Lieutenant." "Forget my date." "I'm getting kind of hungry." "A young man has been murdered, about your age." "You think it couldn't happen to you?" "Well start thinking about it." "Duty first, and then maybe you'll enjoy your dinner." "Now run along." "Well .. what do you think?" "Well, I think he was trying." "What does the psychologist think?" "Quite clear and definite, I thought." "Well, Warren?" "Suppose I tell you that I never did think Susan did it." "I had to try him out on her." "The old back step?" "I've only been sure all the time that it's someone on the campus." "What kind of a guess is that?" "University brains." "Our killer is a student with A+." "Smart .. come down to the lab and I'll show you." "Why, I'd like to very much but we haven't time, have we, Warren?" "It'll only take minutes." "We've a table reserved." "I'll have to be telling you doctor, what I told Hunter." "Duty, you know." "Sharpen it up, Blakely." "That's better." "What's that?" "─ Water." "A drop of water from Bill Perry's lungs." "You look sort-of exclusive back there." "Odor from the chemicals bother me." "Yeah." "That bubble-bath of yours isn't exactly perfume, Blakely." "You'll get used to it." "─ Well, quiz-kid?" "Oh we've got to guess?" "Let me see it again." "Small dots in the saline matter." "Some sand." "The straight, thin objects." "What are they?" "─ Splinters." "They are slightly important." "What do we have here?" "A tub .. and a bucket." "Part of Bill's abalone equipment." "Run your hand around the inside." "What do you get?" "Splinters." "─ Splinters." "From this bucket." "Well, you've got 32 dollars." "Want to try for more?" "You mean the splinters from the bucket are .." "Right .. they drowned him." "Bill was already dead." "Water was drawn into his lungs by reverse respiration." "Right, Dr Romley?" "─ No doubt." "I am amazed." "That is your privilege as a university professor." "That's all for the slides, Blakely." "Do you people always use this method?" "Of deduction?" "Oh, a doubting Tom." "It just seems to me that with the ocean full of splinters .." "Not these splinters." "Oh." "Oh you checked them with ocean driftwood, naturally." "Or was it just that this bucket was so handy?" "Caught with our experiments down." "Smart girl." "Remember, Warren." "For your defense counsel sometime." "Is that your interest in the lady?" "No no." "But I get that." "It won't make a difference, anyway." "─ Just the same, better check." "Wait a minute, she got something, you know." "Why would the killer use a bucket when the ocean was there?" "Exactly." "But Dr Tuttle, you assume he was killed at the bottom of the cliff." "I'm not assuming anything, Dr Romley." "I'll leave that to your department." "Let's keep it friendly here." "At the inquest, didn't Dr Odolard say ..?" "Dr Odolard could be wrong." "The wounds weren't from striking the rocks." "I have the death weapon in there." "He was killed at the top of the cliffs." "The bucket filled, then brought up." "The body fixed up to look like a diving accident." "Then pushed over." "What was the death weapon?" "A steel half-spring." "We found it with the body." "Attached to his diving belt." "Proof?" "Well, it's not hopeless." "Death weapons are nicer however, with blood and bits of flesh on them." "But for the stuff that is cooking here now, I'll grow Perry's hair on it." "If I have to." "Ghouls." "You miserable ghouls." "It was a little raw, I'll admit." "Raw?" "Why, you only claim to investigate murders here." "What you really do is invent them like Genies out of a bottle." "Why or who killed him." "That doesn't matter." "Not to you." "A front-page crime that you can't solve." "So you take it out on someone, just someone." "But quick." "That's all you care about." "I dislike this place, Warren." "Well, I guess that's that." "─ Dr Tuttle." "Do you really think we fake evidence?" "I'm not the first person who thought so, Lieutenant." "Unfortunately, no." "And part of what you say is true." "We get mad." "Over-anxious" "Too many murderers do get away." "But we don't cheat." "If we did we could solve some of those big, embarrassing black daddies." "Did you ever think of that?" "Well, you probably will when you're desperate enough." "I have great respect for you, doctor." "I had hoped .." "That may be Hunter." "I'll get it." "Do you prefer eyewitnesses?" "Maybe we'll have one for you." "Will that please you?" "Hello?" ""Oh please dear God, let me out of here."" ""Let me out of here."" ""I mustn't faint." "I mustn't." "I mustn't."" "They were things I've always wanted to say." "I didn't realize it until you said them." "But now wasn't the right time." "I don't think the right man." "I had the impression you liked Dorgan." "I dislike him intensely." "He's cruel and callous and smug." "He's awfully bright if he's right about those splinters." "You'll be happy to know our witness flopped." "The University is out?" "─ Not a face in the entire book." "You mustn't still be mad at me." "I'm a defeated man." "What to do with her when she's like this, Warren?" "Flowers, candy?" "A mink coat?" "No." "What am I saying." "Champagne with dinner and bill me." "I'll remember that." "I'm sorry." "It wasn't you really." "It was that old witch-doctor in there." "Romley does make bad jokes." "Well, perhaps I make bad speeches." "Okay." "Yes, of course." "Goodbye." "I'll check tomorrow." "─ Have fun." "Don't do anything I would." "Hey, wait a minute!" "The exam book." "Thanks." "Goodnight." "─ Goodnight." "Anything else?" "I'm going home." "─ Yeah." "You got any cigarettes?" "Ah, been to the library, I see." "Yes." "One of these books didn't come from a library." "It was written by an amateur." "I found out a funny thing." "Our dead man had a yen for our professor." "Can hardly blame him." "I'm talking about Dr Tuttle." "─ Sure." "I thought you were." "Had she ever been out with him?" "You know, now and again a man's got to remove his own blind spot." "But I sure hit one here." "After all the soap-boxes I've taken on how anyone can commit murder." "What's so hard about this?" "She's so nice." "So intelligent." "So intense." "So emotional." "Yeah." "This afternoon at the lab I was trying to remember." "I was confused." "It just wasn't kosher." "You of course, so anxious to have her like you." "You noticed that, huh?" "She was desperate?" "─ Hmm." "Back to the wall." "Fighting." "I'm no expert on women, but .." "─ Who is?" "She was afraid I was going to show her the death weapon." "I was about to, too." "What you going to base it on?" "My hunch." "Anything better?" "A little circumstantial evidence wouldn't hurt." "I'll get that, too." "You're not against her because she picked on you?" "Called you a witchdoctor." "She should know .. she's clever with the magic herself." "She sure had you easy." "And Ford .. ha .." "She's got him wound right round her little finger." "Not deliberate." "She's in love with him." "Are you so sure?" "Things aren't always like they look on the surface." "She might go for you, given a chance." "Stop it." "─ Yeah?" "Say .." "No wonder your witness didn't recognize her." "When did she get rid of that style?" "Same time as the other?" "I'm afraid so." "She had a different hairdo when I first met her." "Look." "Put your hand at the back of your head like your hair's in a knot, will you." "I think I'm going home." "You had better look after yourself." "Overworked." "Your friend, Mr Ford." "Isn't going to like this." "Shut up." "I've got no friends." "─ Goodnight." ""Pressured, these cyclothymiac types swing violently between two poles."" ""If the shift is often enough, occurring with rapidly increasing tempo."" ""When she is feeling secure and her emotions are high."" ""A big smile."" ""Then some shock."" ""Her nerves are unstrung."" "So, all I have to do is to raise her up." "And set her down again." "Up .. and down again." "Up and down!" "Send someone in to clean the mess." "I can't think." "Right." "I'm going out to enjoy myself." "Where can I reach you?" "─ Shut up." "Where has the music snatched you to?" "I'm here." "No." "I don't think so." "You're on some moonlit mountain." "─ No." "No, I'm not." "There's something different about you tonight." "What is it?" "I just don't want to fall in love with you." "Well, that's nothing to be ashamed of." "What's "wanting" got to do with it?" "It's got a lot to do with it with me." "You mean it's inconvenient?" "You mean Cupid has a timetable on it?" "─ Why no." "No, of course not." "Well, I have my job here and you have your job in San Francisco .." "So let's consolidate ..be rich." "We've universities in San Francisco." "We're not entirely ignorant out there." "Now the music has run away with you." "Are you married?" "─ No." "You've been married?" "─ No." "Someone else?" "─ No." "No-one." "Well, where to now?" "Would you like to dance some place?" "No .." "A show, maybe." "Something diverting." "Diverting." "I know the most diverting place in town." "I'll take you there." "I hope you like this." "It's wonderful." "You can't hear yourself think." "I thought you'd like it here." "You know Warren, this is my first fight." "It's exciting." "And sometimes a little brutal." "What happened?" "─ Oh, he blinked." "Well, this is some preliminary." "He's hurt." "Say, that's my boy." "That's the Kid." "Kid!" "Kid San Fran." "Hi, Mr Ford." "I'm going to show these mugs down there." "─ Good, keep it up." "You're doing great." "Do you know him?" "─ Yeah, he's from up my way." "You know, I never noticed before, he looks a little like .. you know." "A great little fighter." "Warren." "Scared by a little blood, doctor?" "People getting hurt." "Attaboy, ace!" "Kill him." "Attaboy, ace." "Come on, Kid." "You got fists." "Use them." "Sorry, dear." "It's only a fight." "Perry, you're hurting me!" "I didn't mean to." "Wilma." "Is he alright?" "Are you alright?" "Why, yes." "Not for your first time." "Let's get out of here." "It's bad air." "Hiya, Warren." "─ Some fight." "Oh, hello Ted." "It looked for a minute like they'd want me in there." "We need some air." "You didn't like it, doctor?" "─ Yes." "It was a little frightening." "Then who's the softy?" "─ I am." "I guess I am." "You think I was going to faint?" "─ I thought somebody was." "Staying for the main bout?" "─ You?" "Stick around." "I'll buy a drink later." "─ We've already had your drink." "Say, how about that?" "Don't worry." "The bill is coming in." "Padded." "Goodnight." "Come on." "Warren." "Was it something I said?" "But you're cross with me." "Was there something I did?" "─ I was just thinking." "Like those fighters tonight." "All of us end up sooner or later." "Scarred." "Inside or out." "Did you ever have a nightmare?" "Without knowing." "Not remembering." "Until long after you had woken up." "Maybe it was mine." "Let's forget it." "Let's forget it." "I'm sorry." "Warren, my head is bursting." "Would you mind taking me right home." "Well, here we are." "I bet you don't get service like this often." "Thank you." "─ Now, where is .. ah, over here." "Now, fortify it a little bit." "Warren, I want to talk to you." "Well, I'm here." "Hit the spot?" "Yes." "Comfortable?" "Well." "Talk." "Oh, it's funny." "A whole lecture room full of students." "That doesn't bother me, but .." "─ Do I bother you?" "Yes." "No." "No, not really." "Sometimes you make me think I do." "It's just that." "Well, I'm just so mixed up." "Warren, please be patient with me." "It's like tonight at that fight." "You see, I .." "Yes, the kid did look like Bill, didn't he." "Yes, he did." "To get so emotionally involved, I ought to know better." "Emotion in the right direction is good." "Yes, I know that too." "Then why don't you look at me?" "Because I see myself in your eyes, Warren." "I don't like it." "A jittery schoolteacher." "Bad eyesight." "─ No." "No." "It's all a part of my mix-up." "Their own value on things." "What fears." "Fear of what people will think of me." "You know what I see?" "I see a woman." "A warm, tender woman." "Whom I love." "Very much." "Oh, Warren." "A spinster's kiss." "I warned you." "No objections." "It didn't tell me much, though." "I'm sorry." "You sure there is no-one else?" "─ No, no." "There is no-one else." "Old maids just don't adjust very easily." "That's all." "If only you looked like one." "It wouldn't be so difficult." "You'd better drink this." "You've got to get to bed." "You want the lights out?" "Yes, please." "Window?" "No." "I'll do it later." "I'll call you tomorrow." "Alright." "Goodnight." "Goodnight, Warren." "Goodnight, Mrs Conner." "If we need further information, we'll let you know." "And you won't say anything about this." "─ No. ─ Goodnight." "[ Door knocks ]" "Wilma .." "Wilma." "Yes?" "What is it?" "I've got to tell you now what I've been wanting to tell you all along." "No." "Wait Warren." "Wait, please." "I've had an afterthought too." "I was going to call you, Warren." "I want you to go back home to San Francisco." "My work has been piling up so and .." "Well, you're becoming more and more involved in it." "I'm not involved." "I've decided to forget it." "I'm leaving tomorrow, but you're going with me." "We're getting married." "Oh." "Oh no." "I can't." "I can't." "Warren." "─ Nobody said "can" or "will"." "We're going." "But Warren, be reasonable." "─ Not about this." "Nothing to hold you here but that two-penny job." "What's that?" "No." "No it isn't my job." "What's the matter with these phones?" "Hello." "Get me the travel desk." "Warren, I haven't said yes." "─ You did." "You just didn't remember." "This is Mr Ford in room 203." "I want an early plane for San Francisco tomorrow." "Yes, well I'll pick up .. hello ..?" "Hello!" "No, no." "That's okay." "I'll be in there myself in a few minutes." "Yes, thank you." "Promise you'll be ready when I get here?" "Yes, I will." "Only." "─ No "onlys"." "But what about Dorgan?" "I'll take care of that too." "First thing in the morning." "And sometime I'll try to .." "Goodnight, my darling." "Well, I want you to be the first to congratulate me." "You practically brought us together." "─ That's very sweet of you." "You didn't give her much of a chance, sweeping her off of her feet like that." "When did they leave?" "─ 20 minutes ago." ""Now we got to catch a plane."" "You couldn't give me a lesson now." "I've got a girl I'm after too." "Sorry .. well." "With or without your blessing." "Oh, say." "If you get something new on the case, drop us a line will you?" "Mr Ford?" "─ Yes." "From Lieutenant Dorgan's office." "─ What is it?" "A personally engraved invitation." "Dorgan." "Dorgan!" ""What kind of a game is this?" "Dorgan!"" "Well, lucky man." "I ought to punch you" "Good morning, darling." "─ Wilma." "How did you get here?" "Did he send .." "─ Oh, no no." "Of course not." "I phoned her earlier." "She told me the good news." "He told me you would be here so I came right down." "We'll make it." "Why did you phone her?" "Jealous like a bridegroom, too." "Sit down, Warren." "We were having a nice chat until you barged in." "You know, when you're not around I make progress." "Don't I, Dr Tuttle?" "Warren, he wants to talk about the case." "I am very happy this morning." "Let's let him have his way, shall we?" "Okay." "Only I hope you will leave us alone at the altar, Dorgan." "Send in Romley." "─ "Okay."" "New evidence, I suppose?" "No, no new." "Just clear." "The main trouble has been the spot you put me in, Warren." "Until now, as a detective, you've been no help at all." "None." "Now, just when I'm going to take your case to the jury I could use your help." "You need a defendant first, don't you?" "Let's say we have one." "I am going to ask you to pretend several things this morning." "Alright .. the plane is at eleven." "WE haven't got all day, Romley." "Sorry." "Morning, morning." "And .. congratulations." "Well, thank you." "Even after yesterday?" "In one test-tube and out the other." "When a bride so blooming .." "─ Let's get to the exhibit, Romley." "Which first?" "─ The miniatures." "Oh where do you think you are?" "In a courtroom?" "That's exactly where I'd like you to imagine yourself for a moment, Ford." "Dr Tuttle, would you mind serving as juror number one?" "But we do mind." "What is this sudden passion of yours for games?" "You see doctor, while not a Prosecutor, as Investigator behind the prosecution." "I'm responsible for facts and evidence in the case and how they are presented." "Yes, I understand that." "And judging from your attitude yesterday." "I don't think I could find a tougher juror." "So, if you would step down from the jury box and come over here." "We'll examine the scene of the crime." "I don't know if you went there, Warren." "─ Yes, I've seen it." "This is the car, here." "A pretty spot." "A nice view." "Over here .. is a path." "Leading down to the ocean." "These are the rocks against which the body struck." "Do you get the picture?" "Yes." "Now if you'll just pick up the death weapon" "Wilma, you don't have to do it." "It's alright, Warren." "I've never been a juror." "It doesn't bother me." "But you said yesterday it was a steel half-spring." "This is a steel half-spring, isn't it?" "Yeah." "Until last night, we couldn't figure the position Bill was in when the blows hit." "Standing up, wasn't it?" "Well, let's see." "Here is a reproduction of Bill Perry's head." "In all of its gruesome detail." "Look here, Dorgan." "Gruesome, to you?" "Why, you've seen thousands." "No judge would do this." "Wouldn't he?" "You're getting rusty, Warren." "It looks just like him." "Will you strike the head, please?" "Raise it up." "Strike." "Strike." "Go ahead." "Strike." "Strike!" "Again .. harder .. again .. harder." "Go on .. once more .. again .. come on." "Wilma, stop!" "Stop." "Oh." "I broke it." "─ That's alright." "Don't take it so seriously, Wilma." "Dorgan, you're a fiend." "Get her some water, Romley." "I'm sorry." "─ Alright, aright." "Not your fault." "And did I prove anything?" "The killer was sitting on the car floor with Bill Perry leaning over her." "Then it was self defense." "That's what she proved." "Would you believe that?" "When the killer so obviously tried to hide what she did." "Well, I don't know about that." "─ How many people would?" "Warren, you know jurors." "How they think." "She acted guilty." "She is guilty." "Then you've got your case." "What do you need us for?" "It's quarter to ten." "Warren, let's talk and clear this up." "Let's get to the alibis." "Alibis?" "You don't know the time of death." "Close enough." "Alright my friend, so long you're playing games." "Wilma." "Where were you that Friday night?" "Dinner .. and a movie." "I don't know exactly." "─ But you remember." "Now suppose you did." "Dinner at some restaurant where you'd never been before." "Someone remembers you." "Probably, but just for the sake of argument." "They remember her." "Go on." "You did go to a movie?" "─ Yes." "And there, a ticket-taker, usher?" "Well, they saw you there." "After that?" "I went home." "Mrs Conner, my landlady." "We spoke." "What time did you leave .." "─ My witness if you don't mind." "And under cross examination." "What time did you leave the campus?" "About 5:15." "And then to dinner?" "It doesn't take long to eat alone." "Or were you with someone?" "I was alone." "At the movies about 6:30?" "─ Uhuh." "Home about midnight?" "Well, I walked in between." "So did you Dorgan, right into it." "So she walked, a half hour, an hour?" "You're going to say that because no-one saw her, that was the time of death?" "And here therefore, is the murderer?" "─ The time of death is close enough." "Dr Romney, you're a court's witness." "What time did Perry die?" "Can't positively fix it." "Sometime between sunset and midnight." "That's the best." "Thanks." "Okay, honey." "We'll be leaving." "We'll send you a postcard from Niagara." "I'd like to ask one question." "─ I'm sorry. ─ Just one." "My word." "Unless you feel you have to run away?" "Dr Tuttle." "It's no secret to you or to anyone of us here .." "But this is one murder I can't lick." "I haven't got a chance." "Unless I get a confession." "─ Great." "So Wilma and I killed him." "We admit it." "Happy now?" "Come on, honey." "Push the buzzer, Dorgan." "I haven't asked my question yet." "You want to ask me if I killed Bill Perry?" "But I have only one silly question, don't you think." "When was the last time you saw Bill?" "In class." "Friday morning." "One of your students overheard you making an appointment with him." "That's right, I did." "For 5:30 in my office." "But he didn't come." "That is, I didn't wait." "I left a note for him." "I believe I showed it to you, Warren." "─ Yes." "Yes, she did." "In case my word doesn't count for anything I think I have it." "Yes, here it is." "It explains why I didn't want to see him." "I thought the Dean could handle it better than I." "Why did you bother to write it twice?" "Twice?" "You're faking." "─ Hands off, Warren." "This is evidence." "Yes, I did write it twice," "Stupid of me I suppose, but I had a reason." "A very good reason." "Do you know what fear is, Lieutenant?" "I was frightened." "I saw the way you went after Susan." "You had no more reason to go after me." "Wilma, don't explain it." "─ Why?" "That note was proof that I hadn't seen him?" "And then when I found it was gone, I .." "I asked the janitor about it." "I didn't realize that you'd been snooping around." "But anyway, I thought someone had thrown it out." "I didn't know how exactly, but .." "Somehow, someone had," "It never occurred to you that Bill might have picked it up?" "You knew that was impossible." "Because you had killed him, Dr Tuttle." "Wilma." "Oh my darling, I'm sorry." "I tried to warn you." "It's alright." "It's alright, Warren." "Bring in that warrant, Kodinsky." "─ "Okay."" "Nothing said here will count for two cents with a jury." "You know that." "Save the speeches for court, Warren." "Nice work, Chief." "Shut up." "I'm sorry." "The judge wishes to see you, Mr Ford." "─ Thank you." "Now, now." "Don't be so sad." "In a few minutes, recess will be over." "Then our big opening comes." "Take it easy." "I'll be right back." "May I get some air?" "─ Sure." "Thank you." "I thought maybe you were running away from me just now." "No." "I'm not frightened by you anymore, Lieutenant." "You don't have to be." "My part in the case is finished." "A weak case, full of holes." "You know, you could lose your job saying that." "Don't you worry about that." "I'll go on." "Year after year." "Dorgan the Cop." "The case gave me some bad moments." "Even an officer of the law is not immune to charm like yours, doctor." "You are no ordinary suspect." "Do you think you could ever stop thinking of me as a Policeman?" "Oh, I have already." "You're Ted Dorgan." "You are a friend of the man I'm going to marry." "If I have the chance." "─ You'll get the chance." "You've got a great guy pleading for you." "Are you marrying him because you're grateful to him .." "Or because of the way you feel about him?" "I'm grateful to him of course, but that has nothing to do with it." "I've heard you say you love him." "I do." "You sure you're not lying to yourself?" "You know, you've always thought your head was bigger than your emotions." "This whole trouble you're in." "Does it prove anything to you?" "Is there some chance for me?" "Ready, doctor Tuttle." "The State has charged my client with first-degree murder." "A charge for which she is not guilty." "I would show you that in this uncertainty called "life"." "And this certainty called "death"." "There is a very thin veil between what we cause to happen." "And what happens to us." "Yes, there is a crime committed." "We do not deny that." "But against whom?" "Wilma Tuttle killed a man." "But out of pain and anguish and in of self defense." "Her only crime and one to which we do plead guilty." "Was that she concealed what she had done." "This was her mistake." "Not her intention." "And for one's mistakes, we must have only pity." "Out of fear, she killed." "And out of fear, she concealed and evaded." "But if we are to hold Wilma Tuttle accountable in fear." "Then the world must be held accountable." "For these fears are not born in us." "They are man-made." "From infancy on: what they'll think, they'll say, they'll do!" ""They" are now you, ladies and gentlemen." "Wilma Tuttle no longer lives in fear." "She has paid her debt to fear." "Due to countless pains of conscience and regret." "She faces you openly." "With the confidence of truth." "She made no voluntary action toward the death of William Perry." "She acted in self-defense only." "So try her." "Try her as you must." "Honestly." "Impartially." "For her only real crime." "The crime of fear." "For she knows." "As I know." "With the deepest conviction." "That now that you've heard her story." "You will bring in a heartfelt verdict." "Of .. not guilty." "Don't look so gloomy." "We haven't lost it yet." "Oh, but we have." "T-G"

"He had a strange voice, as if he were but an illusion." "He followed our tribe like a shadow to take me away..." "Were I younger, I would ask for your hand." "I think your father is a kind man." "Appearances can be deceptive." "He has a wicked temper." "So much for your father." "What about your mother?" "Is she kind and fair?" "No, in our family, we say my father's bad temper is due to my mother's ugliness." "There she is." "My mother's name is Sakineh." "I am the eldest daughter."

"How foolish I was!" "See how he breaks my heart!" "Do you not have a suitor?" "Why does his voice sound like a wolf's?" "It's a secret between him and me." "He says: "I can't bear it." "Why don't you come?"" "Do you love him?" "Why don't you run away with him?" "Because of my father." "He'd kill me." "If he had done so, I would be free." "He calls." "Should I go?" "Don't go or your father will kill you." "Talk to him about it first." "Grandma's ill." "When Uncle returns he'll take her to a doctor."

" Twenty." " Five fives?" " Twenty-five." "Remain seated." "Stand up." "May I?" " What is your name?" " Mohsen Jahanpour." " And you?" " Tahmineh." "What kind of school is this?" " An itinerant one." " Where's Fars?" "In Iran." "Well, well, a class without a teacher..." "Let's make the most of it." "Now repeat after me:" ""R.A.N.G."" "What does that mean?" "Color." "Bravo." "Now tell me what color that is." "Red." "The red of a poppy." "Now tell me what color that is." "Yellow." "The yellow of a wheat field." "And that?" "Blue." "The blue of God's heaven." "And that?" "Blue." "The shimmering blue of the seas." "And that?" "Yellow." "The yellow of the sun which lights up the world." "The yellow of the sun and the blue of the water make the green of plants." "Green." "Pure green." "Yellow and red together in the sun..." "Spring came, but my uncle still did not come." "In the spring, the whole tribe broke camp, except for our clan." "My father was waiting for my uncle to return and take Grandma into town." "She was ill, but did not want to die." "She wanted to see Uncle first, but he came too late." "Father buried Grandma in a lush cemetery." "Hey there!" " Hello, Sakineh." "How are you?" " Hello, sir." "Don't you recognize me?" " No." " You don't recognize me?" "And now?" "You are my husband's brother." "Good." "Why didn't you come with your wife?" "I am still young." "Who would marry me?" "Hello, Zinat." "How are you?" "You recognized me without my hat on!" "Miss Gabbeh, your uncle is here." "The wedding day is nearing." "How are you, Sakineh?" "And the children?" "How many do you have?" "Seven." "Come on, children." "Your uncle's here." "Zinat, are you well?" " Hello." " Hello, Uncle." "How you've grown!" "Tell your uncle to put in a good word for you." "My uncle?" "He doesn't even remember me." "He doesn't even know if he's my uncle on my mother's or my father's side!" "Is this your child?" "You have been away so long you no longer recognize them." "You mock me." "I shall show you." "Zinat, go over there." "Sakineh, go the other side." "Soraya, go to your mother." "Fatomeh, go over there." "Reza, you go there too." "Go with Zinat." "You look like my brother." " So did I get it right?" " No!" "Well, where did I go wrong?" "Our uncle brought us together under the tree." "This tree is the symbol of our family." "A new branch sprouts with each new birth." "When one of us dies, a branch is cut off." "Grandmother recognized each child by the branches of the tree." "See?" "Uncle didn't ask after me." "He didn't ask where Gabbeh was." "He only came back for his mother." "Where's my mother?" "Where's Narendj?" "Mother!" "Mother!" "Narendj!" "Your Abbas is back." "Where are you, Mom?" "Too late." "Your guardian angel has passed away." "Too late." "Your guardian angel has passed away." "She wanted to finish this gabbeh for your wedding and send it to you in town." "It is time for the wedding." "Alas, not mine." "My uncle's." "My father said:" ""Your uncle still isn't married." ""It's his turn first, then it'll be yours."" "Congratulations." "Uncle, please get married." "The yellow of the wheat field." "Children, what is that sound?" "A sparrow." "And what can you hear over there?" "A sparrow." "Old man, let it fly away." "So my uncle gets married quickly." "The sparrow?" "The singing bird." "The singing bird." "Thanks to the yellow, the sparrow has become a canary." "Anyone there?" "My uncle dreamed he would meet his wife near a spring." "A girl who could sing like a canary." "My father looked for a wife for my uncle in each and every clan." "The girls were all pretty, but none sang like a canary." "Uncle said he would find his wife near a spring." "My uncle saw this spring in a dream." "Our tribe stopped at every spring." "But we never met a girl who sang like a canary." "Where is the spring?" "Where you hear the sound of water." "Hello." "Hello." "What is your name?" "I am the daughter of Aladad." "I was looking for water, but I found singing." "What a beautiful poem." " I'd never heard it before." " I wrote it last night." " You're the first to hear it." " When?" "Last night?" "That's right." " So you wrote it?" " Of course." "Let me help with the dishes." "Are you a poet?" "No, I'm Aladad's daughter." "I'd never heard this poem before." "Tell me it again." "(Turkish dialect)" "Bravo." "But tell me it in Persian." "Above the spring I stand Below the spring I stand" "The pebble in the spring I am" "When my beloved passes by..." "The canary he holds I am I am in three parts..." "Did you write it?" "Yes." "Bravo." "Who did you write it for?" "For your beloved?" "No, for myself." "I have no beloved." "Aren't you married?" "No." "And why's that?" "Well..." "Time flies by." "How old are you?" " Have you come from town?" " Yes." "If you had a suitor, would you get married?" "I'll have to wait and see what fate has in store for me." "Supposing I..." "How bold he is!" "At his age..." "There's no fool like an old fool!" "She's stolen his heart." "Quiet." "Let them get married quickly." "If you get angry at me, what will you do?" "Huddle up and recite poems." "Like what?" "I am thirsty, you are pure water" "I am thirsty, you are pure water" "I am weary, you are energy" "I am tired and old and withered" "You are youth, you are a bud" "I am thirsty, you are pure water" "I am weary, you are energy..." "Yes..." "Yes..." "Yes." "What does that mean?" "I liked your poem." "I'll marry you." "Where were you?" "The child is thirsty." "I'm sorry." "Fill this up." "I shall help this young lady." "Be patient." "Just while the water skin's being filled" "It's taking for ever." "No, you're not patient enough." "I was in love once" " I understand your suffering." "Let me help." "I asked for the hand of Aladad's daughter." "And here's some sugar to celebrate." "I must gather the wool or else my uncle's wedding will be delayed." "Aladad's daughter, did you weave this gabbeh?" "Of course." "Who else could have done it?" "Why is there this horseman?" "The bride is taken away by a horseman." "Yes, but not if the bridegroom is old." "That's fine for young couples." "I hear the call of old age when I see my hair is grey..." "Come to the wedding celebrations." "Everyone's tired of waiting." "I'm coming." "Don't do anything to make me regret this wedding." "Looking is not seeing" "Behind every cradle hides a tomb" "Behind every joy, sadness..." "Why did you recite a poem?" "Are you angry with me?" "No." "I am happy and contented." "But..." "Fifty-seven years have gone by" "Alas!" "Gone by so quickly..." "Do not be sad." "Although my body grows old and my hair is turning grey, my heart is full of desire and hope" "My body is like a cold, silent dungeon" "But my heart is like a happy child..." "My uncle's wedding is woven into the gabbeh." "Our clan left my uncle and his wife by the river bank to have their honeymoon." "Why are you crying, Miss Gabbeh?" "Because I still have to wait." "Father said Mother must first give birth." "After that, I can get married." "But your father said you could after your uncle's wedding!" "Now he says after Mother's given birth." "When is she due to give birth?" "When we've broken camp, when we've walked a while, when we've worked a while, when we've crossed the river..." "The women blew into the water skins to inflate them." "The men tied them to the rafts and the boys put the animals on the rafts so the water would not wash them away." "We had a flock of ewes." "My mother worked harder than the others, but there was still no sign of the birth." "We crossed a freshwater river and two saltwater rivers... but still my mother did not give birth." "Uncle!" "The hen's laid an egg!" "It's time." "It's time!" "Uncle, stop everything." "Stop, I say!" "I am a stranger." "Why's that man stopping?" "He should go away." "Life is color!" "Love is color!" "Man is color!" "Woman is color!" "Love is color!" "Child is color!" "Love is pain!" "You never gave me a child." "I'd like to have a child." "How beautiful!" "I'm leaving for good." "I don't give a damn!" "The old woman has left." "Do you want to run away with me?" "Father would kill us." "You're lying." "God doesn't forgive liars." "Tell me the truth." "Don't lie." "You don't love me." "You're lying." "I'm not lying." "I love you." "It's not true." "I know you're lying." "Here's a baby." "Stop complaining!" "I'm sure you're lying." "Your father won't see." "What a beautiful baby he is." "Has he drunk some milk?" "No." "He hasn't?" "Go get some milk." "Go and milk his mother." "He's hungry." "Give him his mother's milk." "Sakineh, the baby's hungry." "Life is color!" "Death is..." "You told me to wash the gabbeh to feel better." "So why are you crying?" "Because I still must wait." "My father and my uncle aren't here." "Nor is my mother." "They have taken my sister-in-law to see a doctor in town." "I am to look after the children and the animals." "One of the sheep has a chill." "My sister Sholeh has disappeared." "Don't run off." "Mind, you'll fall!" "Mom!" "Uncle!" "I'm going to fall..." "Uncle!" "Dad!" "Sholeh!" "It's my fault." "Why did you stop?" "Go on!" "Why did you stop?" "Go on, move!" "Go the other way." "By day, the girls kept watch over me, by night, the men did." "I had no chance to run away." "The day Grandmother's gabbeh was finished, my uncle told me I should run away." "He said he'd take my father on one side so he wouldn't see me leave." "O mother, your gabbeh is finished." "I'd like to sleep on it and never get up again." "That's when I had a chance of escape, but I didn't dare." "Why won't you come?" "Tell me why!" "Why do you hurt me?" "Why don't we run away together?" "Come on." "Don't make me suffer." "Your father isn't here." "You've made me so unhappy." "You've made me lose my mind." "Why won't you listen to me?" "Stop making me angry!" "Because of you," "I am like a suffering soul." "Why won't you listen to me?" "Do you not love me?" "You do not love me!" "You do not love me." "I brought you some apples." "Why don't you eat them?" "You don't love me." "He killed them!" "He killed them!" "Miss Gabbeh, will you help me wash the gabbeh tomorrow?" "I can't do it." "My feet hurt." "Miss Gabbeh, do what you want with me, but don't break my heart." "The old woman has left." "Don't lie." "Let's leave together." "How many times must I beg you?" "You don't love me." "You're a liar..." "You don't love me." "Tell me the truth." "My father didn't really kill us." "It was only a rumor." "He just said it so that my sisters wouldn't run away and so that they never answered the wolf's call." "That is why, for forty years now, no one has heard the canary's song near a spring." "Subtitles:" "J. Miller and S.

"On the second day, history tells us - I'm not making it up - from the second day on, certain species of animals crawled from the depths of the earth, and from the ashes." "Dogs were captured on film for all time." "I saw them." "I saw the newsreels." "I saw them." "Of the first day, the second day, the third day." "You saw nothing." "Of the 15th day too." "Hiroshima was covered in flowers." "There were cornflowers and gladioli everywhere, morning glories and daylilies born again from the ashes with an extraordinary vitality unheard of in flowers before then." "I didn't make any of it up." "You made it all up." "None of it." "Just as the illusion exists in love, the illusion you can never forget, so I was under the illusion I would never forget Hiroshima." "Just like with love." "I saw the survivors too, and those who were in the wombs of the women of Hiroshima." "I saw the patience, the innocence, the apparent meekness with which the temporary survivors of Hiroshima adapted to a fate so unjust that the imagination, usually so fertile, is silent before it." "Listen." "I know." "I know everything." "It went on." "Nothing." "You know nothing." "Women risk giving birth to deformed children, to monsters, but it goes on." "Men risk becoming sterile, but it goes on." "Rain causes panic, the rain of ash on the waters of the Pacific." "The Pacific turns deadly, and its fishermen die." "Food becomes an object of fear." "An entire city's food is thrown away." "The food of entire cities is buried." "An entire city rises up in anger." "Entire cities rise up in anger." "But against whom do they rise up in anger?" "The anger of entire cities, whether they like it or not, against the principle of inequality advanced by one people against another."

"Like you, I too have struggled with all my might not to forget." "Like you, I forgot." "Like you, I longed for a memory beyond consolation, a memory of shadows and stone." "For my part I struggled every day with all my might against the horror of no longer understanding the reason to remember." "Like you, I forgot." "Why deny the obvious necessity of remembering?" "Listen to me." "I know something else." "It will begin again." "200,000 dead and 80,000 wounded in nine seconds." "Those are the official figures." "It will begin again."

"You're good for me." "How could I know this city was tailor-made for love?" "How could I know you fit my body like a glove?" "I like you." "How unlikely." "I like you." "How slow all of a sudden." "How sweet." "You cannot know." "You're destroying me." "You're good for me." "You're destroying me." "You're good for me." "I have time." "Please, devour me." "Deform me to the point of ugliness." "Why not you?" "Why not you in this city and in this night so like other cities and other nights you can hardly tell the difference?" "I beg of you." "You have such beautiful skin." "You!" "Yes, me." "Surprised?" "Are you completely Japanese or not?" "Completely." "I am Japanese." "Your eyes are green, aren't they?" "Yes, I think they're green." "You're like a thousand women in one." "That's because you don't know me." "That might not be the only reason." "I don't mind being a thousand women in one for you." "Listen." "It's 4:00." "Why?" "I don't know who it is." "Every day he passes by at 4:00 and coughs." "Were you here in Hiroshima?" "Of course not." "That's right." "How foolish of me." "But my family was in Hiroshima." "I was off fighting the war." "Lucky for you, eh?" "Yes." "Lucky for me too." " Why are you in Hiroshima?" " A film." "A film?" "I'm acting in a film." "Where were you before you came to Hiroshima?" "Paris." "And before Paris?" "Before Paris I was in Nevers." "It's in the province of Nièvre." "You don't know it." "Why did you want to see everything in Hiroshima?" "It interested me." "I have my own idea about it." "For example, looking closely at things... is something that has to be learned." "Would you like some coffee?" "What were you dreaming about?" "I don't remember." "Why?" "I was watching your hands." "They move when you're sleep." "Maybe that happens when you don't realize you're dreaming." "You're a beautiful woman." "You know that?" " You think so?" " I think so." "A bit worn out, no?" " A bit ugly." " You don't mind?" "That's what I noticed last night at the café." "How ugly you were and " " And?" " And how bored you looked." "Tell me more." "You were bored in a way that makes a man want to know a woman." "You speak French well." "Don't I though!" "I'm glad you finally noticed." "I hadn't noticed that you don't speak Japanese." "Have you ever noticed people have a way of noticing what they want?" "I noticed you." "That's all." "To meet in Hiroshima." "That doesn't happen every day." "What did Hiroshima mean to you in France?" "The end of the war." "I mean completely." "Astonishment that they dared do it, and astonishment that they succeeded." "And the beginning of an unknown fear for us as well." "And then indifference." "And fear of indifference as well." "Where were you?" "I had just left Nevers." "I was in Paris." "In the street." "That's a beautiful French word:" "Nevers." "A word like any other." "Just like the town." "Have you met many Japanese in Hiroshima?" "A few, but none like you." " Am I the first Japanese in your life?" " Yes." "Hiroshima." "The whole world rejoiced, and you rejoiced with it." "Was it a beautiful summer day in Paris?" "I heard it was." "Wasn't it?" "Yes, it was a nice day." " How old were you?" " Twenty." "You?" " Twenty-two." " The same age, really." "Just about." "What do you do for work?" "I'm an architect." "And I'm also... in politics." "Is that why you speak French so well?" "That's why." "To read about the French Revolution." "What is this film you're in?" "It's a film about peace." "What else would you expect in Hiroshima?" "I'd like to see you again." "At this time tomorrow..." "I'll be on my way back to France." "Really?" "You didn't tell me." "It's true." "There was no point in telling you." "That's why you let me come up to your room last night." "Because it was your last day in Hiroshima." "Not at all." "The thought never crossed my mind." "When you speak, I wonder whether you lie or tell the truth." "I lie... and I tell the truth." "But I have no reason to lie to you." "Tell me, do things like this happen to you often?" "Not all that often." "But they happen." "I'm very fond of men." "I have dubious morals, you know." "What do you call having "dubious morals"?" "Being dubious about other people's morals." "I'd like to see you again." "Even if your plane leaves tomorrow morning." "Even if you have dubious morals." "Why?" "Because." "You don't want to talk to me anymore?" "I'd like to see you again." "Where are you going in France?" "Nevers?" "No, Paris." "I'm never going back to Nevers." " Never?" " Never." "I was never younger than I was in Nevers." "Young in Nevers." "Young in Nevers." "And mad in Nevers too." "You see, Nevers is the one city in the world - the one thing in the world - I dream of most at night." "And at the same time, think about the least." "What was this madness of yours in Nevers like?" "Madness is like intelligence." "You can't explain it." "Just like intelligence." "It comes over you, consumes you, and then you understand." "But when it's gone, you no longer understand it at all." "Were you full of hate?" "That was my madness." "I was mad with hate." "I felt I could make a career of hating." "All I cared about was hating." "Do you understand?" " Yes." "It's true." "I guess you must understand that too." "Did it ever happen to you again?" "It's over." " During the war?" " Right after it." "Was that one of the hardships of life in France after the war?" "You could say that." "When did this madness of yours pass?" "It went away little by little, and then when I had children, of course." "What did you say?" "I said it went away little by little, and then when I had children, of course." "I'd like to spend a few days with you somewhere sometime." "Me too." "To see you again today wouldn't really be "seeing you again."" "Such a short time doesn't count." "I really would like to." "Very well." "It's because you know I'm leaving tomorrow." "That may be part of it." "But it's as good a reason as any, isn't it?" "The thought of never seeing you again in just a few hours " "You were easy to find in Hiroshima." "Is it a French film?" "No." "International." "it's about peace." " Is it finished?" " It is for me." "There are some crowd scenes left to shoot." "There are lots of commercials for soap." "Maybe by pressing the point " "Yes, maybe." "Here in Hiroshima we don't make fun of films about peace." "Are you tired?" "No more than you." "I've been thinking about Nevers in France." "I've been thinking about you." "Is your flight still tomorrow?" " Yes." " Without fail?" " Yes." "The picture is behind schedule." "I was supposed to be in Paris a month ago." "You give me a tremendous desire to love." "Always." "Short-lived affairs." "Me too." "It's not always this strong, and you know it." "They say there's a storm coming before nightfall." "IF ONE A-BOMB EQUALS 20,000 ORDINARY BOMBS," "AND AN H-BOMB EQUALS 1,500 ATOMIC BOMBS," "HOW MUCH DO THE 40,000 A-BOMBS AND H-BOMBS" "CURRENTLY STOCKPILED IN THE WORLD EQUAL?" "THEY ARE A TRIBUTE TO MAN'S SCIENTIFIC GENIUS." "BUT UNFORTUNATELY MAN'S POLITICAL INTELLIGENCE" "IS 100 TIMES LESS DEVELOPED" "THAN HIS SCIENTIFIC INTELLIGENCE," "AND FOR THAT REASON HE FORFEITS OUR RESPECT." "STOP THERMONUCLEAR TESTING!" "I don't like to think about you leaving tomorrow." "I think I love you." "You will come with me once more." "Answer me." "Are you afraid?" "Sit down." "Are you all alone in Hiroshima?" "Where is your wife?" "She's in Unzen, in the mountains." "I'm alone." "When is she coming back?" "In a few days." "What is your wife like?" "Beautiful." "I'm a man who's happy with his wife." "So am I." "I'm a woman who's happy with her husband." "It would have been too easy." " Don't you work in the afternoon?" " Yes, a lot." "Mostly in the afternoon." "This whole thing is ridiculous." "Are you giving up your afternoon because of me?" "Tell me." "What difference can it make?" "The man you loved during the war - was he French?" "He wasn't French." "Yes." "It was in Nevers." "At first we met in barns." "Then among the ruins." "Then in rooms." "Like anywhere else." "Then he died." "I was 18." "He was 23." "Why speak of him and not others?" " Why not?" " No!" "Why?" "Because of Nevers." "I'm only just beginning to know you, and from the many thousands of things in your life," "I choose Nevers." "Just like that?" "Yes." "No, it wasn't by chance." "You have to tell me why." "I somehow understand that it was there that you were so young that you didn't yet belong to anyone in particular, and I like that." "No, that's not it." "I somehow understand that it was there that I almost lost you and ran the risk of never, ever meeting you." "I somehow understand that it was there that you began to be who you are today." "I want to leave this place!" "There's nothing left for us to do now but kill the hours until your departure." "Sixteen hours until your flight." "It's too much!" "You mustn't be afraid." "Does "Nevers" have any other meaning in French?" "No." "Would you have been cold in that cellar in Nevers if we had loved each other?" "I would have been cold." "The cellars in Nevers are cold both summer and winter." "The city slopes down to a river called the Loire." "I can't picture Nevers." "Nevers." "Population 40,000." "Built like a capital." "A child can walk all the way around it." "I was born in Nevers." "I grew up in Nevers." "I learned to read in Nevers." "That's where I turned 20." "And the Loire?" "It's a completely unnavigable river." "It's always empty... due to its irregular course and sand bars." "In France it's considered a very beautiful river... due mostly to its light." "So very soft." "If you only knew." "When you're in the cellar, am I dead?" "You're dead." "How can anyone endure such pain?" "The cellar is small." "Very small." "The "Marseillaise" passes above my head." "It's deafening!" "Hands become useless in a cellar." "They claw and scrape away at the rocks... until they bleed." "It's all you can think of to help yourself and to remember." "I loved blood since I had tasted yours." "The world passes by above my head... in place of the sky, of course." "I watch that world pass by." "Hurriedly during the week... leisurely on Sundays." "It doesn't know I'm in the cellar." "They pretend I'm dead." "Dead, far from Nevers." "My father prefers it that way, since I was disgraced." "My father prefers " "Do you scream?" "Not in the beginning." "I call your name softly." " But I'm dead." "I call your name anyway." "Even if you're dead." "Then one day, I suddenly scream." "Loud, like a deaf person." "That's when they put me in the cellar." "To punish me." "What did you scream?" "Your German name." "Just your name." "The only memory I have left is your name." "I promise I won't scream anymore, so they take me back up to my room." "I yearn for you so badly I can't bear it anymore." " Are you afraid?" " I'm afraid everywhere." "In the cellar." "In my room." " Of what?" " Of never seeing you again." "Even" "I turn 20 one day in the cellar." "My mother comes and tells me I'm 20 years old." "My mother's crying." "Do you spit in your mother's face?" "Yes." "Drink." "Afterwards, I don't remember anymore." "I don't remember anymore." "You were saying the cellars in Nevers are old and damp?" "Yes, full of saltpeter." "Sometimes a cat comes in to have a look around." "It doesn't bother me." "I don't remember anymore." "Afterwards, I don't remember anymore." "How long?" "An eternity." "I was so young once!" "At night my mother takes me into the garden." "She looks at my head." "Every night she looks carefully at my head." "She still doesn't dare come close." "At night I can see the town square." "So I look." "It's huge." "It curves in the middle." "Sleep comes only at dawn." "Does it ever rain?" "Along the walls." "I think of you... but I no longer speak of it." "Madwoman!" "Madly in love with you." "My hair grows back." "I can feel it with my hands, day by day." "I don't care." "But still, it's growing back." "Do you scream before going down to the cellar?" "No." "I feel nothing." "They're young." "They shave my head carefully till they finish the job." "They believe it's their duty." "Are you ashamed for them, my love?" "You are dead." "I'm too busy suffering." "Night falls." "I hear nothing but the sound of the scissors on my head." "It eases the pain of your death a bit, like " "I don't know how else to say it - like for my nails, the walls, my anger." "What pain!" "What pain in my heart!" "They sing the "Marseillaise" all through the town." "Night falls." "My dead lover is an enemy of France." "Someone says she should be paraded through town." "My father's pharmacy is closed due to the disgrace." "I am alone." "Some of them are laughing." "I return home at night." "And then one day, my love, your eternity comes to an end." "Yes." "A long time." "They said it was a long time." "The cathedral bells ring at 6:00 every evening, summer and winter." "One day I hear them." "I remember having heard them before." "Before, when we were in love, when we were happy." "I begin to see." "I remember having seen before, when we were in love, when we were happy." "I remember." "I see the ink." "I see the daylight." "I see my life." "Your death." "My life that goes on, your death that goes on." "I see that the shadows take longer to reach the corners of the room... and the corners of the cellar." "About half past 6:00." "Winter has ended." "It's horrible!" "I remember you less and less clearly." "Give me something to drink." "I begin to forget you." "I tremble at forgetting such love." "More." "We were to meet at noon on the banks of the Loire." "I was to leave with him." "When I arrived at noon on the banks of the Loire... he wasn't quite dead yet." "Someone had fired on him from a garden." "I stayed by his body all that day... and all the following night." "The next morning, they came to get him and put him in a truck." "Nevers was liberated that night." "The cathedral bells rang and rang." "He grew cold beneath me, little by little." "He took so long to die!" "When?" "I don't know exactly." "I was lying on top of him." "The moment of his death actually escaped me... because at that moment and even afterwards " "yes, I can even say afterwards " "I couldn't find the slightest difference between his dead body and my own." "His body and mine... seemed to me to be one and the same." "You understand?" "He was my first love!" "Then one day I screamed again, so they put me back in the cellar." "It was warm." "I think it was then that my hatred left me." "I don't scream anymore." "I become reasonable." "They say, "She's become reasonable."" "One holiday evening... they let me out." "The banks of the Loire at dawn." "People cross the bridge, in greater or smaller numbers, depending on the hour." "From afar they're nobody." "It isn't long after that that my mother tells me I must leave for Paris during the night." "She gives me some money." "I take off for Paris one night on a bicycle." "It's summer, and the nights are warm." "When I get to Paris two days later," "Hiroshima is in all the papers." "My hair has grown back to a decent length." "I'm among the crowds in the street." "Fourteen years have passed." "I don't even remember his hands very well." "I still remember the pain a little bit." "Tonight?" "Yes, I remember it tonight." "But one day I will no longer remember it." "At all." "Nothing." "This time tomorrow," "I'll be thousands of miles from you." "Does your husband know this story?" "So I'm the only one?" "Yes." "I'm the only one who knows!" "Be quiet." "It's so nice sometimes to be with someone!" "Yes." "Tell me more." "Tell me." "In a few years, when I have forgotten you, and other adventures like this one will happen to me from sheer force of habit..." "I'll remember you as the symbol of love's forgetfulness." "I'll think of this story as of the horror of forgetting." "I already know it." "Don't things ever stop at night in Hiroshima?" "No, they never stop." "I like that." "Cities where there's always someone awake, day or night." "Sometimes we have to avoid thinking about the problems life presents." "Otherwise we'd suffocate." "Get away from me." "The sun hasn't risen yet." "We'll probably die without ever seeing each other again." "Yes, probably." "Unless, perhaps, one day... a war" "Yes." "A war." "You think you know, but no." "Never." "In her youth in Nevers she had a German love." "We'll go to Bavaria, my love, and we'll get married." "She never went to Bavaria." "Let those who never went to Bavaria dare speak to her of love!" "You were not quite dead yet." "I told our story." "I cheated on you tonight with that stranger." "I told our story." "You see, it was there to tell." "Fourteen years since I've tasted an impossible love!" "Since Nevers." "Look how I'm forgetting you." "Look how I've forgotten you." "Look at me." "I'm going to stay in Hiroshima." "With him." "Every night." "In Hiroshima." "I'm going to stay here." "Here." "Stay in Hiroshima." "Of course I'll stay in Hiroshima... with you." "I'm so miserable!" "I wasn't expecting this at all." "You understand?" "Go away!" "I couldn't possibly leave you." "Stay in Hiroshima with me." "He's going to walk towards me." "He's going to take me by the shoulders." "He's going to kiss me." "He's going to kiss me and I'll be lost." "I meet you." "I remember you." "This city was tailor-made for love." "You fit my body like a glove." "Who are you?" "You're destroying me." "I was hungry." "Hungry for infidelity, for adultery, for lies and for death." "I always have been." "I had no doubt you'd cross my path one day." "I waited for you calmly, with boundless impatience." "Devour me." "Deform me to your likeness, so that no one after you will ever again understand the reason for so much desire." "We'll be alone, my love." "Night will never end." "The day will never dawn again on anyone." "Never again." "At last." "You're still destroying me." "You're good for me." "We'll mourn the departed day in good conscience and with goodwill." "There'll be nothing else for us to do but mourn the departed day." "Time will pass." "Only time." "And a time will come... when we can no longer name what it is that binds us." "Its name will gradually be erased from our memory until it vanishes completely." "Perhaps there's a chance you'll stay." "You know very well." "Staying is even more impossible than leaving." "A week." "Three days." "Time enough for what?" "To live from it?" "To die from it?" "Time enough to know which." "There is no such thing." "Neither time enough to live from it, nor time enough to die from it." "So I don't give a damn." "I would prefer you had died in Nevers." "So would I." "But I didn't die in Nevers." "Nevers, you whom I'd forgotten, tonight I'd like to see you again." "Night after night, month after month, I set you afire... while my body was ablaze with his memory." "While my body is still ablaze with the memory of you..." "I'd like to see Nevers once again." "The Loire." "Lovely poplar trees of Nièvre..." "I give you up to oblivion." "Dime-store romance," "I consign you to oblivion." "One night without you and I waited for day to deliver me." "One day without his eyes and she dies, the young girl from Nevers, shameless young girl from Nevers." "One day without his hands and she knows the pain of love." "Silly little girl who died of love in Nevers." "Little girl from Nevers with shaven head, this evening I relinquish you to oblivion." "Dime-store romance." "As it was with him, forgetting will begin with your eyes." "Then, as with him, it will swallow your voice." "Then, as with him, it will consume you entirely, little by little." "You will become a song." "Who is she?" "A Frenchwoman." "What's the matter?" "She's leaving Japan in a little while." "We're sad at having to leave each other." "I had to come." "I'll forget you." "I'm forgetting you already!" "Look how I'm forgetting you!" "Look at me!" "That's your name." "Yes, that's my name." "And your name is Nevers." "Nevers in France."

"No they can't!" "Pick something expensive, since it's my treat today." "That's so awesome!" "I'll choose the wine." "Bon appetit!" "The air conditioning is chilly." "Cover up!" "Just in case you spill." "Spilling would be a big problem!" "Honey today..." "You're not wearing enough clothes." "Just a sec..." "Let's only expose one thing per outfit." "Wear see-through clothes only for today." "I need to use the restroom." "I'll go with you." "Me too." "For whose enjoyment are they wearing such revealing clothes?" "Why are women like that?" "Does anyone not know they have good bodies?" "Only I need to know!" "Do they have to expose it all to be satisfied?" "Other bastards looking really bothers me." "I want to make all the bastards that look at Seo Yi Soo on the street go blind." "How do you think I feel?" "Meahri is young and pretty." "Even though all four of us have a woman and are walking on a golden road through life, we are still men and the male of the species." "However, we don't like our four women exposing themselves, but are glad to see unexpected exposure." "Ironically, we are immature-- that kind of male." "A Gentlemen's Dignity" "Episode 19" "Hey, what's up?" "What's going on?" "What is it?" "What's happening?" "Sit down first." "What is it this early in the morning?" "Park Min Sook (wife)" "She wants to get divorced." "Again?" "I thought...." "Didn't I say we should meet tomorrow if it's not urgent?" "This time it's for real!" "She didn't say, "Let's get divorced." She said, "Let's please get divorced." It was a request!" "After we got married, this is the first time my wife has cried like that." "It's probably the first time you saw." "Do you think your wife's only cried once or twice?" "What did you do wrong this time?" "!" "This time we're not just going to keep quite either!" "Stop while you're still the lying sheepherder, don't become a completely bastard!" "(word play)" "Why are you like this too?" "I really didn't do anything wrong!" "I changed into my pajamas and was about to lie down when she suddenly said that." "I was completely surprised too!" "Had she been drinking wine?" "One glass of wine?" "Then she was just drunk!" "No!" "She was being completely sincere!" "And she didn't kick me out, she packed her bags and left!" "She's ignoring all my calls and texts right now!" "We wanted to do that too!" "Ah!" "Calling us out at dawn for something so trivial!" "Go crawl back in quickly!" "Let's go." "Where are you going?" "I'm really anxious!" "Are you guys really going to be like this?" "Your wife has said she wanted a divorce 10,000 times." "I haven't seen a couple get divorced the 10,001th time." "I'll meet with your wife either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." "Just go and sleep." "I'm leaving." "Don't you think you should just let time do its job?" "We're just in the middle stage of growth." "For making you guys uncomfortable too," "I'm sorry." "Saying silly things." "Let's go." "Ah!" "I need to get a facial!" "I'm meeting Teacher Seo's coworkers later tonight." "You'll still be pretty even if you don't get one!" "From now on, when I hear this song," "I think I'll think about today." "I could make it even more memorable." "If I..." "If I don't let you go home, what will you do?" "Today, I don't want to let Seo Yi Soo leave." "Have a nice day." "Let's take the other one." "Let's just take the one from before." "Which floor?" "The 17th floor." "I intentionally avoided going to the residence hotel, but" "I guess you two also came here to avoid going there." "Both of us tried in vain." "What kind of joke is that?" "Kim Do Jin said he had a meeting in a room here, so" "I just escorted him here." "A business meeting." "You can do it, right?" "Fighting!" "Business, this late at night?" "It's a...a foreign client." "They're still jetlagged so..." "They're meeting this late at night." "Hurry and go." "She's misjudging and thinking I'm a woman who goes to hotels with a man late at night." "Quickly!" "I already misjudged you before, so don't get upset for no reason now." "Don't let the moment go if it's a happy one." "Life is short." "And love leaves quickly." "A woman needs to be diligently happy." "What do we do?" "Go talk to her, quickly!" "This time it's for real!" "Instead of saying "Let's divorce", she begged me to divorce her." "Ask her if you can have a drink in her room." "Text me her room number." "Sister-in-law, I do have some business to attend to..." "You're really using the business as an excuse?" "I guess there's no other way since my girlfriend is an ethics teacher." "If you'd just watch her for an hour, I'll come back and pick her up." "He really came here because of a business meeting." "When a male and female come here, one can, naturally, misunderstand." "We've never..." "Alright then." "Where are you right now?" "I saw your wife just now." "Do you know who she's with right now?" "Who's she with?" "At a hotel this late at night..." "Hotel?" "She's with a person she should never be with." "Which hotel is it?" "Divorce?" "I'm going to..." "get a divorce." "I'm going to..." "get a divorce." "I can't go any lower." "I suspect him even when he says he's not." "And I suspect him even when I know he's not." "He used to get angry when I was suspicious." "But now that he's treating me well," "I'm going crazy because I feel like he's hiding something." "Now I can't tell the difference." "Whether I'm damaged or if I'm intact..." "I know what that is." "That's not a disease." "Unni, you've only loved one-sidedly, right?" "You did things for President Lee Jeong Rok before he could do anything for you." "Bigger and more than him." "But you've been so happy you couldn't believe it recently, right?" "Because you're suddenly receiving love." "I know because I have experience loving one-sidedly." "When a person, who's only given love, receives love, they are suspicious, in the beginning." ""Why to me?"" ""Suddenly, why?"" "In my opinion, it's not suddenly, but that President Lee Jeong Rok finally has the opportunity." "The opportunity to give love to you, Unni." "That must be Kim Do Jin." "Just a minute." "What the hell are you doing here?" "Huh?" "Why aren't you answering your phone?" "Rok has been looking for you a lot." "Why are you looking for me?" "So you can sign the divorce papers?" "Are you really going to be like this?" "!" "You really want to get divorced?" "!" "Do you?" "!" "You don't want to?" "I asked you, do you want to get divorced?" "!" "If I say we should, will you?" "When have you ever listened to my opinion?" "!" "Then let's do it." "Divorce is possible as long as one of the two want to." "Unlike marriage." "Sign the first page and the last page." "The last page is a settlement for our assets." "Your share is 1/3 of what I earned after we got married." "Are you really going to do this?" "Is that not enough?" "Park Min Sook!" "I don't want to fight with you legally over a long time." "Just sign." "Excuse me..." "Is that your wish?" "!" "Getting a divorce?" "Alright!" "Then I'll do it!" "That means the person who's been living with me doesn't want to live with me this much." "I should get lost." "Let's get a divorce." "Is that it?" "Hey, you jerk!" "I don't need money." "You can keep all the money!" "I like you, who had a lot of money!" "I don't want any money without you!" "I'm leaving." "Hey, Lee Jeong Rok!" "Wait!" "Hey, you jerk!" "Are you feeling alright?" "I'm sorry, but I want to be alone." "I'm also tired." "He left?" "What do we do?" "I need to find Jeong Rok first." "They're probably just mad, right?" "I'm the most mad right now." "We came to a hotel." "Yet, what is all this?" "Seriously..." "Don't take it so seriously." "There are couples who say 'I love you' dramatically like them." "Seo Yi Soo is to only worry about me, who is upset because of his friend." "Let's leave." "Yea." "Where are you right now?" "Really?" "Jeong Pal really signed?" "Yes." "He signed the divorce papers right in front of my eyes." "Crazy bastard." "Then he should've called me." "He wasn't in the situation to do that." "So where's Jeong Pal right now?" "I don't know." "He left before I could grab him." "Like in a Hong Kong movie." "But Rok said he didn't want 1/3 of the assets and ripped up the paper." "That's love, right?" "That's love." "With her personality and Rok's luck with women, that couple should've broken up 100 times already if they were really going to break up." "He's not answering his phone." "What if that bastard is getting drunk somewhere with another woman?" "Seung Taek!" "Give Table 3 this fruit." "Yes!" "Why?" "What?" "What are you doing over there?" "I'm working in the kitchen because one of the kitchen staff didn't come in today." "I heard you signed the divorce papers." "Yea." ""Yea?"" "It was inevitable." "The way I've been living..." "Though, I didn't know it'd be today." "Mark it on your calendars." "So we can drink on this date next year." "1 Chopped Steak for table 7!" "You heard, right?" "I'm busy." "Send me a comforting text message individually when you get home." "Go." "He's really not alright." "Damn!" "Damn!" "Damn!" "It's all burnt!" "It's your last summer vacation before you become a senior." "Don't go all-in." "Studying isn't everything." "You only have a short break before supplemental classes start." "Go on a trip with your parents and if you can't go on a trip, at least, go hiking together." "Watch a lot of good movies and read a lot of good books." "And if you have a girlfriend, break up before you come back." "There are more pretty girls in college." "Really?" "I guess I have to go to college!" "You did well this semester." "I hear a lot of you swallowing." "Then let's eat!" "We'll enjoy the food!" "What are you going to do during the break?" "I'm thinking about working part-time." "Part-time?" "Your Dad doesn't give you an allowance?" "He does, but I want to go on a trip to England when I turn twenty." "Why England?" "It's where Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Jimmy Page are from." "That's splendid." "Are you getting along well with your Dad?" "We're getting more and more close." "I call him "Korean Dad" instead of "Mister."" "What about you, Teacher?" "I'm getting closer to him too." "Should we become friendlier too?" "Our first meeting wasn't bad." "Yes." "We were accomplices." "I didn't even know whose car that was." "You're pretty when you smile." "What?" "I'm not looking for you, Teacher." "Let's go." "Have a good break." "Wait!" "Are you two close?" "So did you figure out how to make money with stocks?" "I figured out how to make ₩100,000,000." "Really?" "To make ₩100,000,000..." "You need ₩200,000,000." "Then how do you get that ₩200,000,000?" "Don't you think you'll need ₩400,000,000?" "Just eat some chicken." "Ah!" "When will I save ₩400,000,000?" "I've lost all my part-time jobs." "You said your Dad makes a lot of money!" "I'm a child breadwinner!" "Make a concession." "I think my Dad's making a lot of money, but he only gives me ₩30,000 per week." "That's enough!" "This kid...so ignorant of the world." "Prefer experienced applicants with neat appearance." "They prefer experienced workers." "I don't think you'll get it." "They say you need to have a neat appearance." "I don't think you'll get it." "I have a lot of part-time job experience." "I learn everything quickly." "I'm 187 cm tall and handsome." "I'm handsome and well-proportioned." "If you get to know me, I'm a nice kid." "Just look, I'm a nice kid." "I'm popular among girls." "All the girls on the streets next door, I already have them falling for me." "Well, then shall I try to seduce all the boys next door?" "I'm a youngster who just knows how to joke." "WOW.." "I got information on getting admitted next semester for now." "I'm going to transfer." "Your major?" "Fashion Design." "I'm pretty good at using a sewing machine." "Should I say it's first-rate?" "My Oppa's going to make a fuss if I tell him I'm going to transfer instead of going to college in America." "My Oppa doesn't know I dropped out in the middle." "For now, just prepare to transfer." "Leave the rest to me." "Sit here." "To celebrate starting to climb a mountain, even though we're not at the summit yet." "Not getting into college, but starting to climb a mountain?" "(word play, two sound similar)" "There's a mountain that's the hardest to climb in the whole world." "Im Tae San. (World play= San = mountain)" "The world's prettiest Yahoo lives on that mountain." "By Yahoo, do you mean Meahri?" "Yes." "You." "Oh!" "You're wearing the bracelet!" "The ring..." "I took it off." "When?" "Was it really sad?" "I don't have the confidence to answer that question honestly." "Alright." "I won't ask." "Since I know how you feel now." "What should we do today?" "Sorry, I have an appointment today." "I'll drop you off and go." "Then you should've been this sweet tomorrow!" "Who are you meeting?" "Who have you come as?" "Choi Yoon Pal?" "Or as Im Meahri's boyfriend?" "I came as Meahri's boyfriend." "Then I have nothing to say." "Go." "You...." "What are you..." "I'll make Meahri happy." "Get up!" "I won't let any tears fall from Meahri's eyes anymore." "Get up!" "Please give Meahri to me." "Hey, you jerk..." "I'll remember everything about this moment too." "I promise to always remember till the day I die that earning this love was hard, Tae San!" "Get up, you fool!" "You..." "How can you do this to me?" "How can you get on your knees, you bastard!" "?" "I..." "What should I do?" "What can I do?" "Every day, I will live in debt." "Every day, I will live thankfully." "So please... hand over Meahri to me." "The same for me." "Did Yoon come home?" "I called him on my way here, but he said he's going to meet Rok and his wife." "I guess he's in his right mind to work." "You met him?" "Why?" "Are you losing ground?" "Ah these people think love is everything..." "I punched him." "Who?" "Yoon?" "I'm starting to wonder if, in this game, I was destined to lose." "Even before the war had ended, if I start to think "I'm going to lose"..." "What am I suppose to do?" "Even if you feel like you're going to lose, just know that you did your best." "It's Yoon and Maehri's life now." "You already did everything you could." "You opposed their love and warned them about possible misfortune later on." "And told them that no one knows when love will end." "Now let how Yoon and Maehri live their lives, in their own hands and how about we just watch from a distance?" "Why'd you come to this house?" "Rumors that we've separated are going around because I'm staying at a hotel." "I came to get a few things since I'm moving." "What about you?" "Why haven't you left?" "What are you doing?" "Splitting our assets." "After I thought about it, I can't give up the assets." "Of course." "Alright." "I'll give you 1/3." "Alright then." "Hold this." "What?" "Hold it if you want to get divorced." "You said I get 1/3 of the assets?" "I'm going to cut and take exactly 1/3 of the assets in this house." "What?" "!" "You watch from the nose." "I'll watch from the left eye." "Do you want to lean on your right butt cheek or your left butt cheek?" "Decide in three minutes." "Do you want to drink hot water or cold water?" "Stop playing around." "You get the hot water." "I'll drink the cold water." "You know the ice is on the cold water's side, right?" "You're really going to cut this?" "Look!" "Step aside, you'll get hurt." "So you're here." "I'm glad you came." "First, stop this person who'll soon be my ex-husband." "Why are you calling her Jae Soo ssi?" "(what you call a friend's wife) Just call her Park Min Sook ssi." "But what happened to your face?" "None of your business." "What's that?" "None of your business!" "Just go sue your fan." "I'll get divorced in my own way." "Could you please tell him that divorce isn't done the way he wants, but done legally?" "Either as this person's friend or as my lawyer." "Then." "This woman!" "Look here, Park Min Sook!" "I'm taking as much of my things as I have a right to!" "Is there a problem?" "Look here, ex-wife, Park Min Sook!" "I forgot to mark the toilet paper!" "I need to divide that, so open the door!" "Huh?" "I didn't mark the toilet paper!" "Ex-wife, Park Min Sook!" "Teacher, Do Jin Oppa's here." "Can I come in?" "You." "Don't come near this room." "I'm leaving anyway." "Teacher, I'm going out." "Have a good time." "Are you going to just use your phone as a pot stand?" "Are you going to keep coming here abruptly?" "That's why I'm telling you to move closer to me." "Did something good happen?" "Why are you primping?" "Since school's on break, I'm going to become more risque." "Where?" "How much?" "Nothing that will affect you." "You're saying provocative things when you can't even use your hands." "Don't." "This woman always tell me not to, whenever I do something." "Do I?" "Alright." "Then go ahead." "What do you think I'll do?" "What do you think I'm expecting?" "Aren't you an Ethics teacher?" "School's on break." "Aren't you an Ethics teacher?" "School's on break." "And I'm more risque today than I was yesterday." "This is Seo Yi Soo's private life." "You don't approve?" "I approve a lot." "Usually this kind of luck is a trap." "There's no trap." "I wanted to seduce you earnestly." "By any chance, did I do something wrong?" "You were an easy man." "Relax." "I not going to eat you." "Huh, I'm going to go crazy because of Seo Yi Soo." "Ah, look at his timing!" "Just a minute." "Yea, Yoon." "By any chance, are you with Yi Soo?" "Then just listen." "I gave my business card to those guys when we helped Yi Soo at that cafe." "Do you remember?" "Yea." "Yi Soo's mother called me." "I guess she heard about it." "She wants to meet you." "Really?" "I heard Yi Soo had oppas." "I...only remember giving birth to Yi Soo." "I felt that Yi Soo was in a difficult situation." "If you were displeased, I'm sorry." "Nothing to be sorry about." "I was also helped, thanks to you." "I am the one that's sorry." "Those bastards probably acted like gangsters." "We acted like gangsters just as much as they did." "Thank you." "It wasn't something I could prevent." "What do you do?" "I'm the owner of an architecture company." "It's a partnership with a friend." "And I'm forty-one years old." "Single?" "Or divorced?" "I'm single, but..." "I have one son, who is nineteen years old." "And Yi Soo also knows?" "Yes." "She found out not too long ago." "I'm sorry." "Don't worry." "I'm a mother that has no right to be against anything Yi Soo does." "Your name?" "Kim Do Jin." "Kim Do Jin ssi!" "How'd you come here?" "For what reason?" "I contacted him." "I called because I wanted to see, at least, one of you." "But both of you came." "Sit down." "What are you doing right now?" "Who are you to call this person?" "!" "Get up." "Sit first." "Are you crazy?" "Sitting here because she called?" "Do you even know who she is?" "I was in labor for 40 hours when I gave birth to you." "Even though I have no right to oppose, I think I have the right to meet him." "Seriously, why are you doing this?" "This is so embarrassing!" "Though she looks gentle, she's very strong when she's angry." "She's been hurt a lot because of me." "I leave my daughter to you." "I wanted to say that." "I think you won't have to worry about your daughter." "I'll make her live as a woman who is loved." "Thank you." "Go outside." "You should've told me if you were going to meet my mother!" "I did tell you." "That I'm going to meet a very beautiful woman." "This is really so embarrassing!" "I'm really embarrased about this indecent family atmosphere!" "You know something even more embarrasing about me." "That's what I mean!" "Since I knew about that weakness, I could've made it so that you could love only me." "I'll let you take advantage of that weakness everyday." "So stop crying." "My Seo Yi Soo cries too often." "I cried the most when Kim Do Jin dumped me." "I cried the most when I dumped Seo Yi Soo too." "Then why'd you dump me?" "Because I loved you, stupid." "No progress?" "What progress?" "No matter what act I perform, it doesn't get through to her." "If you don't want to get divorced, seduce her again." "Love is faster than forgiveness." "I need to meet her to seduce her!" "I tried to contact her all night, but I couldn't!" "I called thirty times and sent fifty texts!" "What'd she say?" "She said she'd call the police and not to call her." "There's not even a way I can meet her now because she went to a different hotel." "There is a way to meet her." "What?" "Make Meahri and Yoon get married tomorrow." "Then you can meet her." "Are you taking no notice of my legal dilemma because your genre is currently romantic comedy?" "I saw Yoon a few days ago at my house and his lip is all busted up." "He must've been hit by Tae San!" "But what?" "Married" "Welcome." "Meahri and Yoon are going to come." "I told them to come here because I have something to say." "Clear away the expensive cups and things in advance." "Hwak!" "I'm not going to oppose you from now on." "Really?" "But I can't see you only date for a few months or break up hating each other after dating a year or two." "If you two break up after dating for awhile," "I'm really going to lose both of you." "So if you guys are really going to do something," "I'd rather you two just get married." "I'm on Tae San's side!" "As soon as possible, can you get married?" "We can." "How soon does it need to be?" "In one month?" "In 2 weeks?" "In 1 week?" "Are you being serious?" "How could I have stopped her from going to America without that level of resolution?" "Meahri may not want to." "Of course." "What's good about getting married?" "I'm good!" "I don't not want to!" "This is like a dream come true..." "Thank you." "We won't disappoint you." "Oppa, are you serious?" "I can really get married to Yoon Oppa?" "Go ahead." "Oppa, get up!" "We need to find a wedding hall and look at wedding dresses..." "There's so much to do!" "Quickly, let's go!" "We need to do whatever we can!" "We're leaving." "Let's go." "What was that?" "Was that sincerity or a strategy?" "If it was a strategy, your strategy completely failed." "You're really giving them permission?" "Didn't you hear him saying he would?" "It didn't even take him 1 second." "What can I do when he's like that?" "I lost." "You didn't lose." "You won." "Why?" "I don't know why either." "But everyone says that at times like this." "I should just..." "Hwak!" "Please love Do Jin!" "(with a lisp)" "Where are you going?" "(with a lisp)" "The Dow Jones fell 120 points because of the recession in Spain." "That means that Spain's recession..." "If someone saw, they'd think you're being forced to marry when you don't want to." "It's just...so sudden." "It's weird because I feel like it's a dream." "I imagined getting married to you a lot, Oppa, but this is real." "Do you have a dream wedding?" "You might not be able to do..." "There isn't." "My dream wedding was always just you, Oppa, becoming my husband." "I'll make sure you won't ever regret it." "I'll become a good husband." "Every single day, I will be grateful." "Woori Bank's lease ends this month." "I think they want to renew, but..." "But?" "The market price has risen a little." "Just let them." "It's our main bank." "Next item?" "Yes." "This is the contract for the 3rd and 4th floor of building 44 on 27th Street." "The building where the construction company is leasing the 1st and 2nd floor?" "Anything significant to report?" "No." "The contract is the same as the previous one." "Did you tell him that I was here?" "I was...blackmailed." "I'm sorry." "We can't work together if you're going to be like this." "Let's meet again later in the afternoon." "Yes." "Meahri is getting married." "Are you kidding?" "It's true." "Tae San has given permission." "Okay." "Let's say he did." "So what?" "Are you interrupting my business meeting because of that?" "What's so important about the wedding of the sister of my ex-husband's friend?" "Do you know how much this report is worth?" "Meahri is going to get married." "What's more important than that?" "So just tell me." "What?" "Should we do it together or separately?" "We need to get a wedding present." "Even so, she was your spy before." "Whether's it's a spy or a husband, do you use them recklessly and just throw them away?" "What?" "Look here, ex-wife." "It's because I think they decided to get married before we got a divorce." "Then shouldn't we just get one present?" "What do you think?" "Are you sure it was before our divorce?" "I submitted the divorce papers today, exactly at 9 am." "It's Saturday today." "Do you think I wouldn't be able to just because it's a Saturday?" "Do you know how much I pay in taxes?" "Who did it?" "Do you think I'd do it?" "The lawyer probably did." "Yoon told me that a divorce by consent can't be submitted by a lawyer or proxy." "I went myself." "Alright?" "He said the husband and wife need to go together." "That much is common knowledge." "To a man who lives with a woman who said she wanted to get divorced 10,001 times." "What do you want to say?" "Are you happy?" "Now that you've thrown me away?" "Kind of." "I'm not." "I'm not happy." "Just a few days ago, you were my woman, but... now, a few days later, you've become the woman I wish I had." "If you're done, go." "One more thing." "Sorry for making you suffer in having loved a guy like me." "Starting from the day we were married, sorry for the things I've done." "Don't be kind of happy." "I really want you to be happy, Park Min Sook." "Oh!" "Have you seen the Goddess of Ethic's boyfriend?" "I saw them near our school." "But... he looked really familiar." "What kind of bastard is he?" "What do you mean, bastard?" "He's chic and scarily handsome." "How do you know?" "Did you see him too?" "My mom bought it for me!" "Who's your mom?" "My mom will slap you!" "Do you want to get slapped?" "Hey!" "Hey, you'll hurt his neck!" "Hey!" "Isn't that Yoon Seung Jae?" "Isn't that Woo Young's uniform?" "Please..." "Four against one..." "I guess they're gangsters." "However, getting involved in that fight..." "Give it to us!" "Ow!" "Hey!" "...isn't a good idea." "Are you the guardian of a student named Colin?" "I'm calling from the police station" "Those bastards started it first!" "What?" "You guys started to pick on me first!" "What he said is all a lie and these people ... were just walking by and helped me." "What he said is correct.." "I'm the witness." "Did you win or lose?" "Let's say you won." "Oh!" "He's our homeroom teacher's boyfriend!" "What?" "I'm sorry." "He said a guardian needed to come." "These are my friends." "This is the leader, Dong Hyub and his worker, Sang Yub." "Why are you stuck in this group?" "Didn't you notice how tiring my life is because I met your uncles?" "Dad!" "My son!" "What's wrong with your face?" "Which bastard did this to my son's face?" "Dad, him!" "It's you?" "YOU?" "!" "Ah Please.." " A student like you who doesn't study, do you know who I am?" "HUH?" "Who did that to your face?" "Him!" "What are you going to do about it?" "What the hell are you doing?" "You wanna die?" "Aigo!" "Please, Fathers!" "As an adult, I'm not allowed to hit a child." "Who the hell are you?" "Are you the father of this kid?" "I'm the father of his friend." "He's a son I've never gotten to hit" "And he's a friend that's like 10 friends to that son!" "If you know your son is precious, then you should know that someone else's son is just as precious." "How dare you fling your hand?" "I should just break your wrist!" "I'm sorry, but for whom are you the guardian?" "For both." "Are the three of you friends?" "Yes." "Why... did you help us?" "We don't have a good relationship." "I'm an adult and you guys are still young enough to need protection." "Thank you." "I have an appointment and have to leave." "Stop smoking, you two!" "Alright." "The police station?" "Now I really feel like I have a son." "Is it a problem with his homeroom teacher?" "What'd you say?" "Did Colin get in trouble?" "I took care of it well." "You heard about Meahri's wedding, right?" "You're not jealous?" "I wouldn't say jealous..." "Oh, so cold." "It's surprising." "Marriage isn't a simple thing." "Yoon's more incredible for going ahead when he knows all there is to know about marriage." "Attorney Choi must love Meahri a lot." "Do people get married if they love each other?" "I love Seo Yi Soo a lot, too." "Then should we also" "One couple is getting a divorce and one couple is getting married." "In the end, people get married or divorced to become happy." "But, the way they get there is too different." "Are you worried about Jeong Rok's wife?" "Don't worry about it." "That couple won't break up." "Why?" "If they were going to break up, there would be no reason for her to cut off all contact with him." "In my opinion, the two of them are playing hide and seek." "Or treasure hunting." "I don't know why I'm more worried about the soon to be newlywed couple than I am about the divorcing couple." "But I feel like it was worth being Meahri's teacher." "I always tell students that they don't need to be good at everything." "Just be good at the one thing they enjoy doing." "She only loved one man to death." "And in the end, her love came to fruition." "All the same, I think I left my son to the wrong teacher." "Are you disagreeing with my educational philosophy?" "What is it?" "It's not." "Oh my!" "Why?" "Did you think it was someone you knew?" "What?" "Just someone I knew before..." "How'd you know him?" "Just someone I knew before..." "How'd you know him?" "A guy I dated before." "For about half a year?" "He's really similar." "But why were you surprised?" "Of course I'd be surprised." "Then should I just say, "Hi!" "It's been awhile?"" "Why can't you do something so easy?" "Can you say that to the graduate student named Kim Eun Ji, with 245 shoe size?" "Of course!" "I mean, why do you have to act so surprised?" "Like the earth stopped revolving?" "Do you still have feelings for him?" "That's what this situation feels like." "Then when you painted my house before, you were surprised when you saw a bug." "Huh?" "Then were you surprised because you still had feelings for the bug?" "Seriously, you're so immature." "There's no reason for you to get surprised!" "Ah!" "Seriously, so cheap." "There's no reason for you to get surprised!" "Ah!" "Seriously, so cheap." "Cheap?" "Don't you know that the #1 thing you shouldn't call a man is "cheap?"" "Don't you know the #1 thing you shouldn't ask a woman about is her past?" "See?" "You said "past."" "See?" "There is still something." "It must've been a really deep relationship." "Enough for your heart to still pound?" "My heart never pounded!" "Are you going to keep being critical?" "I was just surprised!" "Why are you getting angry?" "It's even more suspicious." "Are you contacting him secretly by any chance?" "Ah really!" "I'm leaving!" "Where?" "To that man from your past?" "Sit." "Where's the nail polish remover?" "Why?" "It's pretty." "That's why." "It's too pretty." "Didn't you put it on for me to see?" "I've sufficiently seen that it's pretty." "So let's erase it now." "Before another bastard sees." "Are you still talking about that?" "Wow!" "I used to call guys a "crazy bastard" when they said they wanted to keep their woman in their pocket." "But I shouldn't have!" "These sexy fingernails, this pretty face, that amazing collarbone..." "I want only me to see." "Do you want to go into my pocket or erase it?" "How old was he?" "Same as me." "What'd the bastard do for a living?" "Why's he suddenly a bastard?" "I was going to say son of a b****, but I restrained myself." "Because I'm in front of an Ethics teacher." "He was an Oriental Doctor." "Materialistic!" "What did you say?" "Really!" "If I'd known you were this kind of man, I would've reconsidered." "Don't waste your energy!" "Even if you'd reconsidered 100 times, it still would've been me." "You know the Blue Cat's opening game is this weekend, right?" "Did you make a donation?" "Why's the umpire taking care of that?" "Since Tae San's life is complicated lately." "Did you pay or not?" "You don't have a knife, but you're a robber." "Robber!" "If I need to, I'll get one." "Who is it?" "Is it that man?" "Park Min Sook" "Have you been well?" "Yes." "I can talk." "This evening?" "Yes." "I'll see you later." "She wants to meet?" "Why?" "Men don't need to know." "Why?" "What is it?" "We went to eat marinated crab." "If Tae San finds out, I'm dead." "You think Do Jin would be happy we went?" "Oh my, Director, you're here." "It's been awhile." "We came to have a bachelorette party." "Our baby is getting married soon." "Then we need to treat you well today." "The 'water's' really good today." "Should I make a booking?" "Otherwise, why do you think we paid so much to come here?" "So exciting!" "Look at you." "I'm legally divorced and besides me, is anyone else married?" "Are you sure?" "It's special information I received from a b-boy who works here." "Reservation under Park Min Sook, party of four." "What else could it be?" "Why'd you say you were getting married tomorrow?" "You made this happen." "Why are you just staying quiet?" "Because I'm used to it!" "Hong Se Ra." "You...again!" "I really..." "Seo Yi Soo's not a woman who'd do this." "This is all because of Pro Hong and Meahri!" "What about Se Ra?" "What about Meahri?" "The ink on the divorce papers hasn't even dried yet, but she went to a club?" "This woman..." "I should..." "Ah!" "Park Min Sook!" "You tried to catch me every day, right?" "I'll show you what it feels like to be caught!" "Let's go!" "Yah!" "I'm sorry." "There's no room right now." "What nonsense is this?" "Do you know what time it is?" "Just take two steps back." "Even if we do this?" "The two of you can go in." "As we planned, we'll go in first." "You should've taken better care of yourselves." "Ah!" "Seriously?" "Is your personality becoming like Do Jin because you're living together?" "I'm a complete wreck right now!" "Looks like you need some money to buy cigarettes." "How much do you need?" "Let's make a toast." "For those who are single now and for you, who's single for now, and for me who's single again." "For us, cheers!" "Cheers!" "Nunas, we've got a booking for you." "Hyungs, come inside!" "I'm hunting for the witch of Cheongdam-dong." "Now I can only see you." "I'm the main character of a romance comic from Samseong-dong." "My season, is the rainy season." "I'm a hot-blooded man from Dobok-dong." "There is no forgiveness." "I'm a gentleman from Samseong-dong." "Alright." "Now it's showtime!" "Preview." "I swear to become Yoon Oppa's proud dream." "I won't forget those who approved of this love." "Do you want to get married to me?" "That's enough now." "Are you mad?" "Shouldn't this be...serious?" "Maybe it's because I'm not anxious anymore." "I feel weak and dizzy." "Se Ra, what's wrong?" "Se Ra!" "Why don't you just step aside?" "It's not my ex-husband's business." "I'm a divorcee and came to seduce another divorcee!" "I just like the divorcee in front of me right now!" "What the hell do you want me to do?" "Why would you do that?" "What'd I do?" "If you're stand out like that alone, what am I supposed to do?" "Am I pretty today?" "Seo Yi soo is pretty today." "The last episode will air tomorrow."

"(man):" "Previously on Haven... (Croatoan):" "Stop!" "I will kill you!" " Wake up..." "Wake up, damn it." "He got a message to us." " Croatoan is coming for Audrey." "This is where we're making our stand." " I've lost so much to the Troubles." "My sister." "My daughter." "I'm not gonna let anything else get taken from me again." " If we can't build a new Barn, we can't defeat Croatoan." "I have to get these things to do something." " Why have you brought me here?" "(Nathan):" "Howard." "(Audrey):" "Can you use this to build a new Barn?" " The Aether core has been cracked." "Stability is compromised." " Did it damage you?" " Yes." "(Audrey):" "Who did this to Howard?" "(Nathan):" "Duke." "(Audrey):" "Croatoan must be controlling him somehow." "Duke, why are you doing this?" " I am doing what my family was created to do." "(ominous music)" " Duke, please, no." " I don't want to stop." " Duke, let me go." " And I am finally taking orders... from the person that I was always meant to." "(gasps)" " ls anybody out there?" "Please." "Let me out!" "(footsteps approach, door opens)" " Hello, Dove." "You hungry?" "(chuckling) You know, I gave you that nickname." "Dove." "Not because you were peaceful." "(chuckling)" "Hardly." "No, I gave it to you because I saw that you could soar." " Croatoan." " Not Dad?" "All right." "But clearly we have a lot of catching up to do." "(McHugh):" "We covered the whole waterfront." "No sign of her." "(Nathan):" "Damn it." "Dwight, what happened?" " McHugh and I went by Hanlon's house." "Hoping we could use his Trouble to find Audrey, but Duke got to him first." " That makes four Troubled people that Duke murdered." "All last night." "He's got to be collecting Troubles for Croatoan." " Is that why you got my guys pulling Troubled people off the street?" "To keep them safe from Duke?" "Stashing them here?" "Or are you using them as bait?" " Both." "Your guys know the plan and they're on board." "We catch Duke, we can force him to tell us where Croatoan's hiding Audrey." "I know what you're thinking, but I'm not doing this just because it's Audrey." " I'm good with this." "We need her." "She's our only hope to cure the Troubles." "(Nathan):" "Duke." "(suspenseful music)" "(theme music)" "(McHugh):" "Get him!" "Get his arms." "(Nathan):" "Hold on." "Don't get too close." " Ah!" "(Nathan):" "Everyone, stand back." "Don't shoot." "Duke, Duke, stop!" "Ah!" "(chokes)" "Duke... please... stop." " Nathan?" "(gasping)" " McHugh." "(groans)" " Hold him down." " Whatever you're gonna do, do it now!" "(suspenseful music)" " Hell of a plan, Nathan." "But it actually worked." "Now, what do we do to keep him under control?" " Chain him up." " Hang on, Ted." "We're gonna get you help." " Okay." " What's gonna stop Duke from using Hailie's Trouble to phase through them?" " 'Cause they're made from an old Trouble, by a prison guard who wanted to stop Hailie's great-grandfather from escaping." "He couldn't phase through them." "Duke won't be able to, either." "Now we just got to get him to talk." "(mysterious music)" " You look nervous." "So unlike you." " Let me go." " Are you thirsty?" " Where is Duke?" "What have you done with him?" " I could get you some coffee." "You like coffee." "Even when you were a little girl." "You were adorable." "You loved coffee." "You loved music." "You loved dogs." "So many of the same things" " Shut up." "Shut up." " Why?" "Don't you want to know?" "We have all those things back home." " What home?" " Ours." "Yours and mine." "It has similarities to this world, but it is... far more advanced now." "Except for a few warts, it's wonderful." "I'm going back there, taking you with me." "You'll be much happier there." " You don't know anything about me." " That's not true, Dove." "This room, it's just like the room you grew up in." "I love it." " You mean Mara's room." "Is that what this is about?" "You want your daughter back?" "Well, you can't have her." "Mara is dead." " Mara is dead." "I know." "But you're still my daughter." "And yes..." "I want you back." " I just need to know that Dave's death counted for something." "That he didn't die in vain." "This new Barn, when it cures the Troubles, will it stop Croatoan?" " Yes." "The Aether core will act as a power source, drawing like to like." "It'll pull out all the Aether, everything from the Void, including Croatoan, and send it back." " What's your role in all this?" " My function is similar to, um..." "Think of it like a ship, and I am its captain." "I tell all the pieces how to work together, what to do and when to do it." " So, what's next?" "What else do we need to complete the new Barn?" " Once the Aether core is repaired, you will have all the materials you need." "But, uh, I can't operate it." "Not anymore." " What?" " Back in the police station, when I attempted to create the Barn with the damaged Aether core, I was... compromised." "I can no longer serve as the Barn's controller." " Chains seem to be working as advertised." " And Laverne's keeping an eye on him, too." " Good." "So, you're just gonna go in there and talk to him?" "I mean, what do you even say to that?" " That is still Duke." "He's still in there." " Why?" "Because his eyes changed back?" "How can you be sure?" " You saw what happened when he had me by the throat." "He could've killed me." "He recognized me." "Hesitated." "That's the real Duke." "That's who I'm gonna talk to." " I've heard this song before, Nathan." " And I was right before." "Back in my father's cabin," "Duke bought me time to try and draw Audrey out of Mara." "And it worked." "He deserves the same chance she had." "." "Okay" "But who knows what Croatoan did to him?" "The Duke we knew..." "I'm afraid we lost him forever." " Let's find out." " You should eat this." "You love it." " I am not your daughter." "I will never be your daughter." " Family's not a choice." " How can you talk about family like it means anything to you?" "You kill your family." "You murdered Charlotte." "Your wife." "My mother." " I loved your mother." "She wasn't destroyed by me." "She was... contaminated by weak minds." "When she turned against me... broke my heart." "Then, once she started searching for a cure for the Troubles... that could've been disastrous for both of us." "I couldn't let that happen." "So, I had to make a choice." "(screams)" "A very difficult choice." " No." "You killed James, my son." " I had to." "That's how much I love you." "If I hadn't killed him, Lucy would have, and then all of Mara's work, your work, would've been undone." "Worse than that, the Barn would've sent you home, and I would've lost you forever." " Do you think that's an excuse?" " Excuses are for people who regret what they've done." "I don't, because everything I did, I did for you." "You're everything to me." "I need you to understand that." "Do you?" " I want some coffee." " I'll get it." "(both):" "Black." " See?" "I knew that." "(ominous music)" " So, who am I talking to right now?" "Duke'?" " Do I not look like Duke Crocker?" " The one I grew up with?" " Now, why would you say that?" " Your eyes." "They've gone back to normal." "So, whatever Croatoan did to you, it's wearing off." "(ominous music)" " Boo." "Nothing is wearing off." "This is what I am." "I am the person who took Audrey Parker." " No." "You are the guy who didn't just kill me when he had the chance." "Because you remembered who you really are." "You remember Audrey, too?" " I do." "Mmm..." " I know how much you really care about her." "How much she means to you." " Shouldn't you be more concerned with how she feels about me?" "We both know that sometimes Audrey likes the bad boys." "And now that I have found my true self, well... we may go all the way this time." " Well, I'm glad you brought that up." "What happened between you two in Colorado... it meant something." "I know it did for her." "I'm sure it did for you, too." "I want you to remember that." "What that felt like." "Remember that moment." "Remember how much Audrey means to you because, right now, she needs you." "Please." "Tell me where she is." "(laughs)" " You are pathetic." "Did you really think that reminding me of kissing that dead fish would change anything?" "This isn't some magical spell that you can break with the power of love." "This... is what I am." " I don't believe that." " It doesn't matter what you believe." "You've already lost." "She's gone." " We'll find her." " Good luck." "Croatoan was hiding inside of Dave." "You remember Dave." "Old and bald and knew every hidden corner of Haven." "(Vince):" "This is a disaster." "Everything we've done, all our efforts... undone by a stupid artificial intelligence that can't remember what it was programmed to do?" " By that logic, you are now insulting a malfunctioning" " Oh, shut up." "Why can't you be more helpful?" "You were always full of advice when it came to getting Mara's incarnations back into that prison." " That was by design." "My mission was to ensure that the Barn performed precisely as it was supposed to." "Everything I did was in service of that primary function." " So then, why can't we just give you a new primary function?" " I'm not just a program you can simply rewrite and reboot." "I was once a man." " What?" " By your calendar, it was several centuries ago." "I lived in the same world as Charlotte, Mara, and her father." "After Mara created the Troubles..." "I was the one that captured her." "Brought her to justice." " And you helped construct her punishment." "Her prison." " By design, it required a dedicated warden, one that deeply felt the need for her punishment." "When I tracked Mara here..." "I saw what she had done to those people." "It was a... a young boy." "The Trouble Mara gave him was... intolerable." "His life unlivable." "I had to end his suffering." "I had to..." "I couldn't let that happen to my family." " So, you sacrificed yourself to protect your loved ones." "Your home." " As I said, that was centuries ago." "The importance of what I was doing was clear because it was personal." "But after what happened in the police station, after I was compromised, I..." "I can't remember them anymore." " Without that personal connection... you can't operate the new Barn." " No." " That, uh... that couldn't have been easy." "You Okay?" " No." "But it was worth it." "What Duke said about Croatoan knowing all of Haven's secrets because he was part of Dave." "We should send someone to talk to Vince." "See if he knows where his brother would stash a prisoner." " "Someone" meaning not you?" " Duke is still in there." "I know it." "I just need to keep pushing." " I'll go." "McHugh's on his way in." "He can back you up." " Dwight, I know you think that Duke's a lost cause" " Hey, if anyone can get through to him, it's you." "You've known each other your whole lives, maybe that's why he didn't kill you." "And reminding us about Dave, maybe that's Duke's way of helping us out without tipping Croatoan off." "What you're doing..." "I think it's working." " Hey." "What needs doing?" " Keep an eye on things in there." "Nathan's making progress but" " If things go south, want me to take care of Crocker?" " Ah, well..." "No." "No, Nathan's right." "Duke's still in there." "Hasn't always gotten along with The Guard, but he's one of us." " No man left behind?" " Yeah." "Help Nathan out any way you can, okay?" "(dramatic music)" "(Croatoan):" "Here we go." " You said the Troubles were Mara's... work?" " Yes." "Your work." "Really following in your father's footsteps." "I hope it's not too hot." "(mysterious music)" "Oh, Audrey..." "I don't want to hurt you." "You're my daughter." "And even if I did, poison?" "Not my style." "Yum, yum." " How could you call the Troubles "work"?" " I understand why they frighten you." "It's 'cause you're not seeing them clearly." "You're not seeing their full potential, what they can accomplish." "What you're seeing is the risks, the damage." "Doesn't have to be that way." " No... it doesn't." "(both gasp)" "(dramatic music)" "(arm maps) " Ow!" "(grunts)" "No, please don't." " I need to teach you a lesson, but not what you think." "Let's see what we have here." "Snapped clean through." "Must hurt." "But you've always been tough." "Luckily for you, your father knows what he's doing." "There you are." "As good as new." "(mysterious music)" " How did you do that?" " I used the Troubles." " You can control the Troubles that you take from people?" "You can use them?" " Yes." " And now Duke is out there harvesting more for you, isn't he?" " Just the ones I need... for my protection." "I survived in the Void, filled with Aether," "for centuries." " You learned to master the Troubles." " I wish you'd stop calling them the Troubles." "They're gifts, and in the right hands..." "My hands..." "They can accomplish anything." "Today wasn't the first time you've been my patient." "When you were little girl, I used Aether... to save your life." " What?" "How?" " I think it's time you heard my side of the story." "The one your mother never wanted you to hear." "(Duke):" "Come back soon." " How's it going?" " Duke's in there, but it's slow." " Maybe it's time we try a different course of action?" "That chain you found got me thinking." "Some Guard buddies of mine have old Troubles that can make Duke talk." "(scoffs)" " Use an old Trouble to torture him?" " I've done a lot of damage by picking up the enemy's weapon." " I'll do you one better." " Let's hear it." " What if we use an old Trouble to bring the real Duke back?" " That's good." "And if it works... we'll have a double agent embedded right by Croatoan's side." " Go grab the census of Troubles we've been putting together." "It's guarded." "Tell them I sent you." "If there is one that can bring Duke back, it's in there." " I'm on it." "What are you gonna do?" " Get back in there." "Find that part of Duke I saw and grab on." "Give us a fighting chance." " We need some help finding Audrey." "Something Duke said made us think that she's being kept at one of Dave's old hideouts." "So, I figured..." " Deserted farmhouse." "County Route 19." "On the outskirts of town." " That was quick." " It's where we planned to hide out if things in Haven ever completely fell apart." "Guess we missed our chance." "You foolish old goat." " Your brother was... a good man." " He gave his life for this town." " And I'm sure you would've done the same thing." " You said you aren't able to operate the new Barn, but what they did to you, turning you into the Barn's controller..." "Could you do it to someone else?" "Could you do it to me?" " Back home, the work I was doing was... decades ahead of my contemporaries and light years ahead of what the minds here have dreamed up." "But, success breeds envy and eventually the others grew timid." "Afraid of progress." " They weren't timid." "You were reckless." "Charlotte told me why you were banished." "You were experimenting with Aether from the Void." " Bet she didn't tell you why." "When you were a little girl, you were sick." "You were very, very sick." "No cure." "No hope of survival." "You were our only child." "We were devastated." "I couldn't let you go." "So, I took a risk and it worked." "I introduced Aether into your immune system... to modify your natural antibodies." "I used Aether to save your life." " You put Aether into your own daughter?" " Yes!" "But it was like bringing you back from the dead." "The others were willing to let you go, but not me." "Your mother, she gave birth to you." "But all that you are, the miracle that you've become, was all thanks to me." "I created you." "You're my daughter... twice." "(laughs)" " We'll stay here as long as it takes because I know that you're still in there, Duke." "Croatoan's inside your head, controlling you." "You can force him out." " You... are wrong." " Since when do you let someone tell you what to do?" "Don't let him control you." "This isn't you." "(Spits)" " Wrong again." "For the first time in my life, I know exactly who I am." "This is what I was always meant to be." "Please, Nathan... help me." " You're fighting him." "What can I do?" "How do I help?" " I don't know." " You can do this." "You can beat him, Duke." "I know you can." "Come on." " What you did for me... what you did for your daughter... it was courageous." " Had to." "Couldn't lose you." " But it doesn't excuse what you've done to the people here." "Being in the Void for all of those years, maybe it... it changed you." "It corrupted you." " What I endured in the Void has only made me stronger." "All those years in that place, the only thing that kept me going was you." "I survived so I could return to you." " But at what cost?" "The man who would do anything to save his daughter, he would hate the person you have become." " No." "I'm the same man I was back then." "Because everything I did was for you." "To get you back." " I told you." "I am not your daughter." "Mara is dead." " Names don't matter." "You're still my daughter... my creation." "And you're still... special." "I made you that way." "Don't you feel that?" " What you did with the Aether..." "You said it made me special." "But, how?" "Why?" "You need me for something." " All the facility and knowledge necessary to operate a new construct are contained within that controller crystal." " But creating a new controller, someone to steer the ship, as you put it, that requires... another sacrifice?" " Yes." "I understand your commitment, but... biologically, I don't even know if you would be fit to serve as the controller." " You volunteered to serve as Mara's warden because you knew it was the only way to protect the ones you love, now that was your purpose." " My dedication was paramount, but I can make no guarantees it will work the same for you." " But I have to try." "I've dedicated my life to Haven." "Leading the Guard for all those years." "Using the Herald to cover up the Troubles." "All of it, because I love this town." "The people here, I've seen what they've been through." "Witnessed so much suffering." "Lost my..." "I've lost so much because of the Troubles." "And now, I can play a part in ending them... forever." " The transformation process to controller will kill you." "Even if it doesn't succeed." " So be it." "This is my purpose." " You can control the Troubles." "You have Duke out there collecting the ones that you want." "So, why do you need me?" " What I did with the Aether to save Mara... changed her." "Gave her a special bond with the Aether." "She could do things with it... nobody else could." " But, can't you create Troubles on your own?" " Yes, of course, but they pale in comparison... to the kind of things she could do." "And now, that singular gift is yours." " I will never create Troubles for you." " Why not?" "You've did it before, when you touched Duke." " People were dying." "I did what I had to do." " Exactly." "Just like your father." " But, why?" "Why do you want me to make Troubles?" " Because..." "I want to take my daughter back where she belongs." "I want to take you home." "If you would just embrace what you are, you could realize your full potential." "You do that, we can create the Troubles we need, then we could take back what's rightfully ours." "Reclaim our home from those who banished us." "Show them what Aether is truly capable of." "Show them the power that they were too cowardly to claim as their own." "And we'll do it together." "Father, daughter." "I'm going to rip open a tear in the Void and flood this world with Aether." "Welcome to our laboratory." "Oh, Audrey, join me." "You don't belong here." "You can't save these people." "You can't save Haven." "What I have planned... has already begun." " Tell me you got something." " I've been looking through this" "Trouble census and you're right." "This thing's a gold mine." "You got psychic communication, there's a puppet master Trouble." "There's gotta be something that can break Croatoan's hold over Duke." " Good work." "Now we just pick our best shot and..." " That's spooky." "He can't hear us in here, can he?" "' Yes!" "He can." "Thank you for bringing that, McHugh." "(dramatic music)" " How did he..." " Damn it." "(Duke):" "I'll take that Trouble census now." " What do you mean, "lt's begun"?" "What's happening out there?" " Just what I expected." "People are playing their parts perfectly." "Nathan is doing everything he can to save Duke." "Duke is showing him just enough of his lost friend to keep hope alive." "Just enough for Nathan to keep Duke close." "And it will cost him." " What is happening with Nathan?" " This is your big moment." "Will you defend that with your life?" "Stay out of this." " How did you get free?" " Well, now, why go around something when you can just bust right through it?" "So easily fooled." " Croatoan planned this... wanted you to get caught." "You faked this all just so you could get your hands on this." " That's right." "Exactly." "It's like a menu of Troubles." "Now we can just pick and choose our favorites... and then drink them up." "We will be unstoppable." "It's ironic." "All of the times that you asked me to kill for you." "Look what I have become." "What you turned me into." "You wanted a Crocker?" "Well, here I am." " Please, I am begging you." "Don't kill him." " Why?" " You don't need to." "If you are as powerful as you say, it doesn't matter." "Dad... please." " Remember this..." "It isn't you." " Please, don't kill him." " Dove, Dove, Dove." "It's all right." "I've decided to let Nathan live." " Why?" " 'Cause that's what you wanted." " It doesn't change anything." "I will never help you... no matter what you do." " Yes, you will." "And I never really expected just to talk you into helping me." "No, today was about finding out what you really care about..." "Nathan." "I needed to find out how much you care about him and the others." "You'd do anything to protect him, wouldn't you?" " If you hurt them, I swear to you..." " Hurt them?" "Haven't you been listening?" "I'm going to help them." "I'm gonna use all the powers I've gathered to give them what they truly want." "What you truly want for them." " What?" " I'm gonna make them happy." " Is that what you did with Duke?" " Well..." "Duke spent his life searching for his identity." "Now, he's found it." "You're free to go." " Why would you just let me walk out?" " Well, I want you to be with them..." "your friends." "I want you to see the gifts I offer, the happy lives that they can live... and what you'll be ripping away from them... if you still refuse to join me." " Daddy?" "What's wrong, Daddy?" "Say something." " Lizzie?" "But, you..." "(bell dinging)" " Vince?" "Vince!" "Howard, I need your help finding Vince." "Vince!" "Vince?" "Oh, my God." "What have you done?" " What I had to." "And I know exactly what we have to do to send Croatoan screaming back to hell." "Subtitling:" "CNST, Montreal"

"I mean, I've been, like, modeling and stuff, but, I mean, it's totally not my thing." "Like, I just think I'm a nerd, you know." "I've been into video games and comic books and stuff." "Like, I don't know." "I'm just-- I'm such a total nerd." "Hi there." "I'm Brian." "I'm an actual nerd." "I wear these glasses to see." "I watch Star Trek TNG," "I play Skyrim." "I'm... shy." "I'm not wearing a nerd costume for Halloween." "I'm ac-- this is how I actually dress." "And when I take these glasses off," "I'm not suddenly, uh, revealed to be sexy or cool," "I'm still a nerd." "In-- in fact, I get sick with fear... uh, talking to people." "I'm not skinny enough to fit into hip jeans." "The only reason I'm not very pale and actually have a tan is because I went "eventing" a couple weeks back and got to dress up and run around in a field." "It-- it-- it sucks." "I mean, it..." "Damn it." "Uh, why, you know-- a sexy girl who went and saw, you know, a second-week screening of The Avengers is not a nerd." "A real nerd is ashamed to be called a nerd." "So, please, get real." "If you're not a nerd, don't call yourself one." "Dang it." "Usually I'm really good at ranting." "Welcome, guys." "Thank you so much for coming to the PTA meeting." "I wanna bring something up really quick." "There is music here in this library available to our kids." "There are specific albums that absolutely should be banned." "You're really overstepping your bounds here." "Talking about what our kids love." "But our kids also don't really know what they like yet." "Kraftwerk." "Neu!" " Oh, hi." " Oh, hey." "It's funny we parked next to each other." "Sorry it got heated in there." "You know, it's" " I'm just passionate about our kids' music." " That's all." " Yeah, I mean, you know, like, the music they market to kids." "Can you believe it?" "Like, The Wiggles?" "Like, they have this song about making a fruit salad?" "Don't get me started." "Don't." "It doesn't speak to their intelligence at all." "Like, who's to say that a kid can't appreciate a guitar solo in a Dinosaur Jr. song?" " Yeah." " I've said that exact same thing." "I have said that." "Right?" "What it boils down to is us just caring about what our kids listen to." "Raffi has this song about..." "Peanut butter jelly sandwiches." "Something like that." "A whale with a blanket on it in the bottom of the ocean?" "Kids like time changes and weird time signatures, right?" " Yeah." " I've said that exact same thing." "Let's have some interesting chord changes." "Let's not just be writing in a pentatonic scale..." "If you're gonna have some repetition, you know, let's do, like, Philip Glass or Steve Reich repetition." "And also, it doesn't have to be simple." "No." "No, it does not." "Right?" "I mean, kids like atonal stuff." "They like discordant..." "Do you guys play music?" "Yeah, I mean, we're musicians or former musicians." "Really?" "We were too." "Yeah." "Oh, really?" "What instruments?" "Yeah, uh, I play guitar and sing." "How funny." "I'm a drummer." "I do a lot of circuit bending." " Okay." " Samplers." " That's great." " Yeah." "We should make music for kids." " Wow." " That's a great idea." "I was kinda kidding, but also not kidding." "I would totally do this." "Yeah, let's-- let's do it." "Let's make a pact right now." "No songs about peanut butter and jelly." "Okay?" "We don't reference silly animals." "No clouds, no cutesy stuff." "We just play real music for real kids." "Yes." "Should we think of a band name?" "Gummy Riot?" "What about Dough Hammer?" "Shortstop Sleepover?" "How about The Hamburger Options?" "How about Cross-Stitch?" "How about Goofus?" "Oh, Goofus." "That's-- that might be too much for kids." "I had one that was, like, The Defiance Of..." "Anthropomorphic Sea Mammals." "What's that?" "Defiance Of Anthropomorphic Sea Mammals." "I like that name." "That actually kind of appeals to kids." "I think, 'cause..." "Children are about to have their minds blown." "Honestly, I feel so, just, like, alive and excited right now." "Cool." " All right." " All right." "Bye." "It's open." "Stop it." "Okay, it's open." "Hold it." "I'm not even-- can you unlock it?" "Well, it's an interesting menu." "My students said we can't go wrong." "Everything is good, so..." "I wish my students ate some stuff like this." "I don't know what they're eating." "Shiva salad?" " Hello." " Hello." "How are you two doing?" " We're very well, thank you." " Good." "Very good." "Well, do you have any questions?" "Um, I keep meaning to try the "Ke-Noah,"" "'cause I keep seeing that name." " Quinoa." " Okay." "It's an ancient grain." "Super healthy for you." "Oh, great, great." "You know, I would probably feel best if you could just make some choices for us." "Well, I can just put together a bunch of different options for you." "Can feed two." " Nothing too bananas." "I don't want to, you know." " Okay." "'Cause I don't know what's what." " Awesome." "Thank you so much." " Thanks a lot." "Delicious." "I liked it all." "I guess I didn't get what raw was." "But it felt like real food." "It's not" "Yeah, it didn't feel like a snack." "That second thing was really good." "That sort of ricey, beany..." "I'm gonna be honest with you." "Like, I feel..." " a little gassy." " Yeah." "I'm feeling the same thing." "And these wooden seats." "I wish they had cushions or something." " They would have to wash them all the time, right?" " Yes." "Or" " Will you hold my hand for a second?" " Yeah." "You okay?" "Yeah, I just" " I gotta get this fart out." "I'm gonna keep talking." "Through your fart." "Look, our library is falling apart." "At our school, if they had a new" " I'm farting right now." " Mm-hmm." "If they built a new facade or anything in the library" " I'm still farting." " Yeah." "Not only would it be out of money" "I mean, the entire town would be out of money." "'Cause a lot of that is subsidized." "I'm farting." " Yeah." " And they were trying to work on some kind of a new tennis court" " I'm farting." "And that fell apart." "And I thought" "I'm gonna complain." "I'm farting." "Yeah." "I was" " I was farting during that whole thing." "What do you think about tomorrow?" "What do you feel like doing?" "I can't." "I honestly can't think about" "I know, I'm just trying to make conversation." "Hi, you two." "I'm so sorry, but we've been getting a lot of complaints." "Um, if you do need to flatulate, we have a designated area." "Wait--?" "Ah." "Now I'm all loosey goosey." "Yeah, and it doesn't disturb all the other people eating." "I know." "I felt so constrained in there." " Huh." " Wow." "What was that?" "A little mustard seed?" "Apple, for some reason." "I'm smelling apple." " When in Rome." " Yeah." "Let that fart foam." "Hi, Royce." "I'm her boss!" "From the Portland Milk Advisory Board." "Last week, we talked about raw cow milk." "It turns out that..." "The process of pasteurization as developed by Louis Pasteur is the only true legal process in the United States." "Instead, we offer you cashew milk." "And everything that she said, I totally know." "But she did such a bang-up job, and..." "Thanks, boss." "One of these days, she's gonna take over." "Louis Pasteur, by the way, was..." "No, he was French." "That doesn't mean he was gay." "This didn't mean gay." "This meant French." "He's my boss." "We'd like to thank Candace and Toni for having us all out here to celebrate the launch of their new comedy section here at the book store." "Let's take you through these little books here." "How The Lioness Lost Her Mane." "My mane looks like a lion chewed its way out." "You know what I mean." "So, Toni, I'm going to go up and do some comedy." "It's gonna be kind of a roast." " A little bit about you." " Okay." "It's just how comedy works." "Like, that's kind of" "Is it?" "Okay." "We're gonna have a special guest up here tonight." "Our very next comedian is Candace from Women And Women First!" "All right." "Knock 'em dead." "Like to introduce you to the co-owner of Women And Women First." "That's Toni there." "The zoo called." "They want their gorilla back." "Thank you." "Gorilla." "Toni's teeth, I don't know if you've noticed." "Looks like an old graveyard." "Rest in peace." "Toni's parents are idiots." "Couple of dummies." "Sort of met each other and said," ""let's make something ugly."" "Um, I've got a really funny joke." "This is a really, really funny one." "This'll make you laugh." "Toni's face." "It looks like it got punched by a boxer." "Lot of people talking about the drug problems going on here in Portland." "There's an ugliness problem too." "I think it's in this area over there." "Should call the ugly police." "Think they have one of those makeover nightsticks." "Except my impression of a cop coming up to her is going like this." ""Uh, oh, sorry." "This is a zoo."" "Gorilla house reference." "Once again." "I love you guys." "What a crowd." "Yay, everybody." "Candace." "Toni." "That's my bag." "Comedy..." "I'm gonna go on." "What?" "I'm gonna go on." "Oh." "So we have a surprise guest tonight." "Uh, everybody, Toni." "That's my bag." "That's my stuff." "You know what would be funny?" "If I smashed this." "Is this your apple?" "Is this your lunch?" "Oh, my apple." "Oh." "Don't" "What is this?" "Is this your vibrator?" "I carry that around because you never know." "I'm putting it out of its misery." "Comedy, comedy, comedy!" "Such a pussy." "You like Kombucha tea?" "Aah!" "Who saw that coming?" "I did not." "Okay." "Uh, thank you all for coming." "That was great." "Did you like it?" "I loved it." "We have to do this every week." "I'll destroy you every week." "Yeah, you destroyed." "Literally." "We should have done that as a joke." "Boys and girls, put your hands together for the Defiance Of Anthropomorphic Sea Mammals." "How's everyone doing?" "Did everybody have a really good day today?" "Uh, this is pretty cool music." "And, uh, just listen with an open mind." "Rejection!" "I wanna die!" "I wanna die!" "I wanna die!" "I wanna die!" "I wanna die!" "I wanna die!" "Sing along." "Sing along." "Everybody leaves me." "Everybody leaves me." "Ow!" "And Squiggleman is next." "Hey." "How are you?" "You don't sound very pleased to see me." "I'll go." "I'll take my bags and I'll leave." "No!" "How did they react to us?" "Were we getting this response?" "You want me to come back?" " Yes!" " Great." " Let's go." " Yeah!"

"That I look like a Scottish soccer player." "Trey, this is kind of a mistake." "This was just not who I really am." "And I have to be at the DMV today." "I have an appointment." "'Cause my license is expiring." "So let's go." "Can I stay?" "Am I allowed to stay in your house?" "That would be weird for my roommates, I think." " Could you give me a ride?" " Back to your car?" "I don't have a car." "I don't drive." "Did you know that all car companies are corporations?" "Trey, I will drive you where you need to go." " Your house?" " Yeah." "Okay." "Can you make me "wittle" bit of coffee?" "Uh..." "This is so hot!" "I'll meet you in the car, okay?" "Wait." "Can I tell you one story before we go?" "We're going." "But I got to tell you a story." "I opened for sublime." "Can you stop talking for a second?" "You don't know me." " Everything you're saying" " I'm a "wittle" baby." "I need this to end, and I wish it had never started." "Let's go." "Don't you hate metal drummers?" "The thing about the DMV is it's always crowded." " You have to take a number." " Why did you make a left?" "I don't know where I'm going." "You have to tell me." " Damn it." " What?" "I don't have my keys." " Is someone at your house?" " You know what?" "My friend Skiz." "Wait." "We have to go somewhere else to get your keys?" "Yeah, it's not that far." "He's one of the funniest guys I know." "Skiz." "This is your alarm clock." "Throw down the key." " Babe." " Oh, my God." " Thanks." " Okay, let's go." "No, I gotta go get my key." "That is the key." "No, that's Skiz' key to get in." " This is a two-key process?" " Yeah." "Can I reach you on Facebook?" "If you are a friend of a friend, you can find me on Facebook." "Oh, I'm not on Facebook." "But you know what I'll do?" "I'll go on my friend's account." "That doesn't even make sense." "If Ryan messages you, I'm messaging you through that." "What would the point of that be?" " Ho-- stop the car!" "Pull over!" " What?" "Okay." " Pull over." " Ugh." "What?" "So crazy." "Everyone's, like, moving away and some people are moving in." "Come on!" "I thought you were gonna move to New Orleans." "What the hell are you doing?" "What are you carrying around with you?" "Make a slight left onto Interstate Avenue." " He's in my top" " Aah!" " Aah!" " Aah!" "Aah!" "Damn it." "Why's all my stuff on the lawn?" "Wait, that's your stuff?" "Aw, jeez." "All right, well, good luck with that, Trey." "Huh." "I guess just take me back to your place." "Get out." "I am so over this." "Who is that?" "Who is that?" " D'arcy!" "What are you doing?" "!" " Who is D'arcy?" "She got my key." "D'arcy, come on!" "Don't do that." "You're gonna hurt yourself." "Again." " I don't care!" " I care!" "You're not going anywhere!" "Who are you?" "Oh, I'm sorry." "I'm D'arcy." "I live in this house." "And so does Trey." "Great." "We are trying to make a child." "Did he tell you about that?" "I actually don't care." "I need you to give me your contact information so I can call my insurance company and have you pay for the window." "Let's just go home." "No, Trey, I want nothing to do with this." " I want my keys and I want to get out of here." " Take them." " Right there." "Get 'em." " Thank you." " Carrie?" "What?" "Ugh!" "What are you doing?" "All right, you know what?" "I hate you." "You guys deserve each other, and this is the worst day of my life!" "And if I don't get to the DMV," "I am gonna come back here and" "Aah!" "Stop." "I hate you." "Ugh!" "Carrie?" "Thank you." "Hey." "I'm sorry." "Are you guys closed?" "Yeah." "We've been closed for about an hour, but how was your day?" "It was awful." "Aw." "But we have coffee for you." "And we're gonna make your day a little bit better." "Thank you." "All right." "Let me see that smile." "Ah, there." "Look, look." "Oh." "I've called the cops, and they're gonna take your statement."

"Excellent." "Start without me." "I'll take my clothes off, and I'll be right there." "No, no, no, that's not what this is about." "We just really wanna talk to you." "We have this band, and we opened up for you, but, like, just, they ignored us, and you're so huge, and we want to do well, you know what I mean?" "About nine years ago," "I managed to convince myself that I was nine years old." "Every day I walk out into the street," "I see things as a nine-year-old would see them." "Does that make sense?" "Yes and no." "I mean..." "What are you sat on?" "Uh, a bed." "No, it's not." "It's a bouncy-bounce." "Bouncy-bounce." "Okay." "What are those on your feet?" "They're-- they're shoes." "They're not." "They're your choo-choos." "I mean, how else do you live like a nine-year-old?" " I mean, you're drinking." " You're drinking alcohol." "This isn't alcohol." "This is wee-wee." "Wee-wee." "You can do this." "Really." "Stand up." " Okay." " Okay, come on." "Shake it off." " I mean..." " That's it." " I feel silly." " I know." "No, no, no, no, no." "Come on." "You're nine years old." "It would be nice to not care as much about what other people thought." "It's the best." "I am Michelle." "I am mish mash Michelle." "Makes me wanna go jump on the bed." "On the bouncy-bounce." "Get off there." " What?" " Come off there." "Not on daddy's bouncy-bounce." "You know this." "You can't jump on the bed." "Come on." "We've talked about this." "I told you not to bounce on the bed." "Ow!" "I never wanna feel bad inside, and I never want any of you to feel bad either." "Friends forever." " Forever and ever." " Mm." "I'm gonna get my special glasses in this bag." "Don't talk or go away!" "Is this working at all?" "Fantastic." "Keep going." "Use your imagination." "Vegetables!" "It's imaginary lunchtime!" "This reviewer couldn't discern exactly what was happening in the video." "He just knows that it transcends children's music on literally every single level." "Hey, you guys, there's this band." "Everything that can be said in kids' music has now been said." "We did it." "Good job, everybody." "Shut down your computers." "Shut down the site."

"I got one for 'em." "So have I." "Dr. Arthur Arden." "I understand he's come under suspicion a number of times already, and with his sudden disappearance his guilt is plausible." "But Lana..."

"(exhales)" "I knew this would happen one day." "I wondered how" "I would feel." "I thought I would go crazy, but I'm actually relieved." "Living with secrets is not... healthy." "I was right, Lana." "I knew... you were the one." "I am the one." "I am the one that's going to put your ass in that electric chair."

"That'd be you." "I think we established that when you chained me to the bed and called me Mommy." "PANDORA:" "Go ahead, baby, you can call me Mommy." "(exhales)" "You'd be surprised how many... how many men have mommy issues." "You think that's my problem?" "From the way you drained my tit?" "I'd either say that you have a mommy fixation, or... a calcium deficiency." "(laughs)" "Oh, honey, I'm just kidding." "I just want to slow you down." "Make sure you're enjoying yourself." "You're right." "I'm fixated." "I'm stuck on that cold bitch." "Oh, honey." "You tell me all about her." "JOHNNY:" "She never loved me." "She didn't love my father." "There was only one person she ever loved." "LANA:" "Tell me what you did with Wendy's body." "Nobody cares about a spinster schoolteacher." "Not the cops, nor the school, or her family." "Everyone knows what she was." "What we were together." "And I'm the only one who gives a damn." "She deserves a proper burial." "(gas roars)" "(flames crackling)" "Her story's pretty complicated." "Are you sure you want to hear all the details?" "I want to know everything." "She was the first body I had that remained... intact." "I put her on ice just for you." "I was gonna dispose of the body, but... once I realized how well things were going with us," "I thought she could come in handy." "For practice, you know." "THREDSON:" "It was awkward at first." "Every approach I made felt false, artificial." "I felt like she was watching me." "Being judgmental." "I must confess, I couldn't do it." "I thought about plucking out her eyes." "But then I thought, that's not real," "I need to make this work." "So I turned her around." "And finally it happened." "(sighs)" "More than once." "It was a triumph." "Better than I ever thought possible, Lana." "Wendy allowed us to create this life you have growing inside of you." "It's a little miracle, if you think about it." "Where is her body, goddamn it?" "Well, after you left me," "I had to dispose of all the evidence." "So what I couldn't burn," "I cut up." "There are pieces of her scattered from Plymouth to Springfield." "But you know what, Lana?"

"Come on, I'm about to burst out of my skin." "Do me a favor and just give me some relief." "(screams)" "Please!" "Oh, God." "No!" "Please, baby, oh, stop." "Stop!" "Stop!" "You know what bitch did, don't you?" "Stop, stop, please!" "Time for a refill." "(sirens wailing in distance)" "They're here." "Drink up." "This is your last taste of alcohol." "Now that you're out of Briarcliff, you'll never keep that baby, will you?" "Not a chance in hell." "So I shouldn't expect a little Oliver to come visit every few months?"

"He wanted them to watch him work." "He needs an audience." "Well, the ME's report stated that Debbie Cooper did suffer before she died." "She was hogtied with plumber's tape and tortured."

"Leroy Russell's on death row." "Converted to Islam inside." "Since then he's been a model prisoner, refuses to talk to us." "What are these IPAs supposed to give us?" "Background, likes, dislikes, any way to relate to Brodus, because he's not just gonna confess to you." "I know how to interrogate a prisoner." "I know you do, but I doubt you've encountered this level of depravity before." "I've dealt with serial killers before..." "Who hunted for short periods of time." "They're more psychologically inclined to confess." "Brodus hunted for years without detection." "He's like Dahmer and Lucas and Bundy." "Sometimes it takes years for killers like that to relax their guard." "Look, they all want to talk." "Even Bundy cooperated in the end." "Yeah." "When you get closer to the kill date they become more pliable, but you gotta remember this is a game." "Brodus is holding all the cards." "You know, I'm missing Wheel of Fortune for this little talk." "What's in it for you?" "You want Brodus?" "I want time shaved." "Sorry." "There's no deal to be had." "I'm serving a life sentence." "You're a career criminal, Rule." "A life sentence doesn't mean life, death doesn't mean death, 25 years, it's 1 2 and a half-to-15." "That burns you, huh?" "Look, I ain't going nowhere." "Check with the warden." "I'm in for the Iong haul." "Then you should be glad, getting a good mark on your prison record." "Hey, I can't do something for nothing." "How would that look on my block?"

"The FBI doesn't deal." "What the hell was that all about?" "Procedure." "I suggest you get familiar with it before we do any more interviews." "We make deals all the time." "You should've heard Rule out." "He doesn't know anything except for background." "We'd just be wasting our time with anything else." "Yeah, how do you know that if you don't talk to the scrote?" "Because Brodus would never have told him anything substantive." "He would've considered Rule beneath him." "You know that for a fact, huh?" "I've been doing this for a Iong time." "So have I." "You don't get up from the table until you've seen everyone's hand." "The FBI is running these interviews and I'm not offering any deals." "I hope that's clear." "Jersey won't play ball." "Okay." "What can we do?" "File an official request, Iet it go through channels." "By the time we get that answer, Brodus will be dead and buried." "We can't tell another state how to run its business." "New Jersey already has an inferiority complex when it comes to New York." "They're digging in their heels on principle." "alex, how many phone calls from victims have you gotten asking why you lost a case and what you're gonna do about it?" "I've had my share." "And how many times do you actually get a second chance?" "What would you Iike me to do?" "File a temporary stay." "No." "I am not comfortable with that." "I'm not looking to commute the guy's sentence." "I just want a Iittle more time for myself." "Do you have any direct evidence linking Brodus to the victim?" "Not yet." "Then find me some." "In the meantime, I'm gonna head to New Jersey and ask an old friend for a really big favor." "As good as it is to see you, alex, the answer's still no." "It's just an interview." "You've granted them to other law enforcement agencies." "Why not to mine?" "Well, the other cops talked to Brodus while he still had appeals on the table, and we're on the home stretch now, I can't afford to have anything go wrong." "We're not trying to sabotage your execution." "We just want some answers." "Well, if he's your guy, whoever the victim is will have justice the day after tomorrow." "I cannot believe you're gonna make me do this the hard way." "What'd you expect, ancient history to get you an invite to the table?" "You know, I came here as one professional to another." "I don't need to revel in the past." "You're good, alex, not spectacular." "This is a political powder keg, so we can't accommodate you." "What's the matter, alan, is this a re-election year?" "New Yorkers can't seek relief because they don't vote here?" "You've grown a pair since the Iast time I saw you." "Yeah." "Well, you've lost yours, because victims' rights used to be a priority." "What if he confesses?" "Is that such a bad thing?" "What is to stop him from confessing to murders in other states and whipping law enforcement into a jurisdictional frenzy?" "What then?" "Then you deal with it." "If he murdered other victims and he takes it to his grave, you become the facilitator." "Brodus will do anything, say anything to stay his execution." "Henry Lee Lucas did it." "Bundy did it." "It's their nature to exploit our weaknesses." "I'm sorry, alex, no one gets access." "Period." "Unfortunately there wasn't enough blood to get DNA." "What're you talking about?" "The victim's shirt was soaked in it." "Well, the blood was mostly hers, not the killer's." "eleven years ago, the lab used 90% of the sample for typing." "Give us some good news." "Come on." "Well, the fibers are consistent with uniform cloth." "It was cross-matched to a company that dyes material for heavy crawl suits, pest control, construction." "plumbers' uniforms." "also, the tape that bound your victim matches the bin number of the New Jersey bodies." "There's our connection." "Yeah, it's still too circumstantial to force New Jersey's back against the wall." "I could compare their fibers to ours." "You think we'd have any trouble getting it from them?" "Not without a fight." "No." "You find anything to link the plumbing company to Brodus?" "No quarterlies were paid for under any of his aliases." "Under the table." "So I checked with the owner." "Moderate business, pays his taxes, guy even does jury duty." "I didn't know that Iaw-abiding citizens existed." "You recanvassed the Cooper neighborhood?" "Yeah, and you owe me a new pair of shoes." "No, but after 10 years, people move, they don't remember." "How about that teacher?" "Andrea Mason?" "Yeah." "Did you find her?" "The interview is scheduled for tomorrow morning." "I got you covered, elliot." "If there was anything solid, I'd let you know." "I'm running out of time here, John." "You're running out of options." "The Coopers are running out of time." "I need you to make a deal with an inmate who shared a cell with Brodus." "What's he in for?" "Two counts rape, one count manslaughter." "No." "Look, I've hit a wall and he may have some information that'II help us with Brodus." "He's not talking without some kind of incentive." "Where's Huang on this?" "He wants to follow procedure." "So do I." "And while we play by some arbitrary rules, the Coopers just have to wait?" "elliot, why are you pushing so hard?" "You know, I studied the crime scene photos, I read the files." "Brodus mutilated 12 women, premortem." "It's pretty horrific stuff." "Now try to imagine the strength, the will it took to keep those women alive and feed off their terror." "I'm gonna need as much ammunition as possible, if I'm gonna trip this guy up." "And you think this prisoner will give you some leverage?" "Well, I ain't gonna know unless I can talk to him." "As soon as I corroborate your information, we ship you off to Danbury Federal Prison." "That's fair." "I raped that girl." "I know I belong in prison, but not here." "What can you tell me about Matthew Brodus?" "I got a Iittle girl." "She's five." "Her name's Marlene." "Man, you bulls sure know how to check up." "My ex won't let me talk to her." "She's all I got." "It's hard to do time unless you got something good to hold on to." "She sends me drawings and I got a photo of her third birthday, blowing out the candles." "Where are we going with this?" "Will you call her for me?" "No." "Look, you ask my ex, how's my baby growing?" "What's her favorite color?" "How's she doing in school?" "please, that's all I want." "No." "please." "I ain't got nothing to say, man." "AII I want is to find out about my little girl." "If you had a kid, you'd understand." "I make that call, we talk about Brodus?" "For as long as you want." "What's the number?" "(DIALING)" "(PHONE RINGING)" "WOMAN:" "Hello?" "Hello." "This is Detective EIIiot Stabler." "I'm calling on behalf of Robert Rule..." "I miss you so much!" "(DIAL TONE SOUNDING)" "She hung up." "Satisfied?" "Yeah, right." "Thanks for trying." "If you have any questions about the assignment, just see me after class." "Thank you, Miss Mason." "Andrea Mason?" "Detective John Munch." "We spoke on the phone." "Right." "Debbie Cooper, 10 years later." "Yeah, how well did you know her?" "Well, History wasn't her best subject." "She did a Iot of extra credit to pull her grade up." "That's it?" "Look, I'm sorry." "It was a Iong time ago." "I think it's great you're still trying to solve her murder, but even when it was fresh she was just one of many students who pass through that door." "She didn't really stand out, huh?" "No." "Debbie was awkward, a late bloomer." "Besides Vivian Parish and a few friends, no one really took an interest in her." "Do you know where I can find Vivian Parish?" "Last I heard, she moved to New Mexico." "Thanks." "Let me guess." "Rule gave you nothing." "Just what he'd culled from newspapers and the TV." "One day you're going to actually realize that I know what I'm doing." "I had to give it a shot." "Apology accepted." "Let's move on." "So where do we go from here?" "Brodus' other cellmate." "We figure out a way to get Leroy Russell to sit down with us." "He's still refusing." "Says it's not on his path to allah." "We're looking for Detective Stabler." "His captain said he'd be here." "Detectives Yorkin and Janowicz, Brooklyn SVU." "Did you allow an inmate named Robert Rule to use your cell phone?" "What's going on?" "A call was placed to a rape victim." "She phoned our precinct in hysterics." "We dumped her phones and got the cell number for a Manhattan SVU detective." "Care to tell us what the hell you were doing?" "The victim's name is elizabeth Shachtman." "She was 16 when Rule brutally raped her." "I read the file." "A little late for that." "What the hell were you thinking?" "He gave me a hard luck story about his kid and I bought it." "Because you wanted to." "Now, how did this convict get the phone number?" "Rule was co-counsel in his own defense." "The victim's information was listed because she was a witness at his trial." "I should put you on a desk and send you over to the Shachtman residence to explain yourself." "I already did that." "How's she doing?" "She feels violated." "Again." "I'II call Brooklyn." "See if I can't smooth it over." "Vivian Parish." "She may have married." "Can you check who's paying her quarterlies?" "I'II hold." "Tell me again how my partner failed to get his weapon recertification." "He choked." "I didn't choke." "Okay." "He got poor marks for shooting off his gun early." "That happens to everybody, Fin." "You know, they have a pill for that now." "So what's your next move?" "I don't have one." "I mean..." "Brodus has another cellmate but he's not talking to us." "BENSON:" "Anything on the guy you can use, something to twist him with?" "He murdered a kid in a convenience store robbery." "Shot him point blank with a sawed-off." "Converted to Islam on the inside." "He's made one appeal since." "I suppose he wanted his execution date moved up." "Yeah." "How do you know?" "He's on a path." "It's the one thing Christianity, Judaism and Islam have in common." "In order to be a man of God, you gotta change the man you are." "Can't you appeal to this guy's religion?" "I mean, you're looking to clear a murder." "That's gotta mean something if his conversion's real." "FIN:" "He's got a blood debt." "Use that." "blood debt?" "It's in the Koran." "He took a life, so he owes a debt for spilling blood." "It's Islamic justice." "DANIEL:" "How can I help you, Detective?" "please believe me that if there were any other way, I wouldn't be here." "I've caused victims enough grief already." "Sir, I'm here to request that you face your son's killer and ask him to talk to us." "Why?" "Why would you ever ask me to do that?" "He may have some information to give another grieving family some relief." "I can't." "I believe you can, sir." "In my opinion, any man who opposed the death sentence on behalf of his son's killer is strong enough to face him." "I don't give a damn what you think." "Yes, I spoke at his sentencing." "But I didn't do it for him." "I did it for me." "His death doesn't lessen my pain and it sure as hell doesn't give me back my son." "I apologize for reopening your wounds." "You didn't." "My wounds never heal." "At least you know who killed your child." "Debbie Cooper's parents don't." "Why is he in chains?" "With a civilian in the room, we take extra precautions." "I'm told you're a religious man now." "I owe you a debt." "DANIEL:" "You can't pay it." "So I need you to talk to these men." "Answer their questions and try not to lie." "Questions about what?" "STABLER:" "Matthew Brodus." "I don't really know the man." "You shared a cell with him for three years." "What were your impressions of him?" "He's a killer." "So you have a Iot in common." "He used to always ask me questions." "What kind of questions?" "Why I was on death row." "Who I killed." "How I did it." "My answers used to piss him off." "That's because you killed a young man that you didn't hunt first, and so Brodus couldn't get a vicarious thrill from your experience." "I shot that boy 'cause he saw my face." "But Brodus, he took joy in the killing." "One night, he talked to me about all the things he did." "I asked to be moved out of there after that." "What kind of things?" "Stalking, gutting, doing things to the body." "He used to think he was smarter than everybody else even when he made a mistake." "He killed a blind girl close to home." "Did he say how he did it?" "No, and I didn't ask." "Can I go now, back to my cell?" "Evening prayers, you know?" "Officer." "You refused to speak during your sentencing." "I need to know what my son's last moments were like." "Did he say anything?" "No, sir." "You don't need the image of your boy dying with my voice in your head telling you how." "Leroy Russell confirms Brodus blinded and murdered one of his victims that was too close to home." "None of the New Jersey victims match Leroy's story." "That doesn't mean anything." "It's hearsay testimony from a man on death row." "Munch located that teacher, Vivian Parish." "Not only did she date Brodus for six months, he regularly picked her up from school and, I quote," ""Gave Debbie Cooper a ride home once or twice."" "Now is that enough for a murder indictment?" "And as soon as I file, they'II say we can have him when they're done." "So that's it?" "We're done trying?" "What else can we do?" "Explain it to her parents." "I understand we have new evidence." "So where do we go from here, Miss Cabot?" "I'm not sure what I can give you besides knowledge." "Can you prove that Matthew Brodus killed our daughter?" "Not in a court of law." "But we are reasonably sure he's guilty and he is being executed for his crimes." "Are you familiar with the name Ottis Toole?" "He's the guy every cop believes murdered John Walsh's six-year-old son, Adam." "Toole died of AIDS on death row before we could prove it." "And after 21 years you can still see the rage and grief that John Walsh carries with him." "His hope died along with his son's killer." "If you don't do everything within your power to prove Matthew Brodus murdered our daughter, so will ours." "I'm Wade Harris, Matthew Brodus' lead counsel." "Nice to meet you." "Frankly, I'm blown away that the Manhattan D.A.'s office is interested in stopping this execution." "We're not." "I want to put your client on trial for murder." "That should buy you six months to a year." "No, actually, I think I could drag it out to 18, if I drown you in paper." "I've drafted the request for a temporary restraining order." "And what makes you so sure a judge will go for it?" "Evidence and an appeal from the victim's parents." "What kind of evidence?" "You file capital charges against my client, I have right to discovery." "Only when and if I file." "You need to keep your client alive." "Right now, I'm all you've got." "Deal?" "Miss Cabot?" "Your Honor, the People are seeking a temporary restraining order based on new evidence linking Matthew Brodus to an open homicide." "None of which is under New Jersey's legal jurisdiction." "As officers of the court, we cannot ignore capital crimes, no matter where they occur." "I've reviewed their evidence and it's circumstantial at best and doesn't even meet the criteria for trial, not here and certainly not in New York." "Is Manhattan proposing to try Mr. Brodus?" "Not at this time, Your Honor." "So is the purpose of the TRO to go on a fishing expedition?" "Your Honor, the Iaw does not allow for posthumous jurisprudence." "If Mr. Brodus dies before discovery has been had, the truth dies with him." "This is a ploy to stay the execution, Your Honor." "The defense has exhausted their appeals and are now preying on New York's desperation." "I submit, the prisoner is in your custody and available to be executed at your discretion." "Which is currently scheduled for midnight tonight." "We should not allow them to stymie our ability to mete justice." "The prisoner will be just as dead six months from now." "Your Honor, we're not seeking justice, we're only seeking the truth." "Under the circumstances, and given who the defendant is," "I'm not convinced you'II be able to get it." "AII right, people, don't go far." "So what are our chances?" "It's hard to gauge." "I'd say we're about even." "So what's with the face?" "You're acting like we've already lost." "Something about helping a convicted serial killer avoid the needle he so justly deserves does not sit well with me." "Is the judge back?" "Not yet." "Are you only looking for an exceptional clearance?" "An interview is all we've ever asked for." "Nothing's changed." "I need your word that you'II decline to prosecute, no matter what Brodus reveals to you." "You've got it." "I'II set up the interview." "Be ready in an hour." "HUANG:" "Try to keep him off balance." "When I stress him, be his friend." "Otherwise push him hard." "You'II be watching his body language for signals." "When you ask an innocuous question, I'II just back off." "And pay attention to his eyes." "Serial killers have this stare." "It's focused." "It's like animals when they're hunting." "And when he's not hunting?" "Then he can't look you in the eye." "Anything else?" "You know, this might not work." "He's not going to trust us and he might play this out to the end." "You gotta be prepared, in case we run out of time." "Hey." "Detective Stabler." "I'm Dr. George Huang." "Behavioral science." "Prescient spooks studying rats in a cage." "How boring." "STABLER:" "You're not boring, Mr. Brodus." "You can call me Matt," "elliot." "I'm not a mind reader." "They just announce my visitors." "So what's this about?" "Well, we just decided to take you up on your invitation." "Not that I mind the company, but I don't recall inviting you." "You also don't seem too surprised to be seeing us." "Why should I be?" "Feds come in and out all day." "You been helping us out?" "As much as I can." "But they want me to admit to things I haven't done." "If it wasn't for the missing women and their poor families, I'd laugh." "At what?" "You cops." "Trying to beat your own clock." "(CLEARS THROAT)" "What's so special about Our Lady of Light?" "That a church?" "Catholic high school." "You mentioned you wanted to send your daughter there." "I want her to have a first-class education." "You don't have any children, Matt." "You sure about that?" "You think any woman's gonna come forward with my kid?" "Much less admit to having slept with me?" "Come on." "How about you give me a name, and I'II check it out?" "You'II have to wait until my will goes into probate." "Why didn't you kill your girlfriend, Vivian Parish?" "Now you're insulting me." "Well, I don't want to do that." "I apologize." "It just seems that if you'd killed her, you probably would've gotten pinched right away and 13 women would still be alive." "We all know the record says 12." "We both know the record is incorrect." "They give you anything for that insomnia, Matt?" "Pills don't work." "What time is it?" "It's 8:33." "What's in the folder?" "It's a project." "I want to ask your opinion about a killer's M.O." "He still out there?" "Don't know." "He hasn't worked in a while." "We wanted to go through the three D's of sadism: dread, dependency, degradation." "Are you up for that?" "Can I take a look, please?" "What's this?" "A medical examiner's report on the body." "That's boring." "Where are the crime scene photos?" "There's a picture under the report." "It says our killer tortured the victim." "Any ideas why?" "No." "HUANG:" "Why not?" "You did some of the same things to your victims." "The big girls that you chose." "Since Debbie Cooper was a big girl, we figured you might have some ideas why she was cut so deeply." "If I could see some crime scene photos, I could probably help you." "You don't need them." "Look inside your head." "You'II see it." "See someone else's work?" "Can't be done." "STABLER:" "He overpowers her." "Easy for a man of some size, Iike you." "He binds her tight with tape." "plays with her for a while." "HUANG:" "He feeds off her terror." "He can't get enough, so that she dreads when he leaves and when he returns." "But he's not gonna do her right away." "He wants a few days with her." "So now she has to depend on him." "But then he has to take the thing and slice it open and see what's going on in there." "The knife goes in like butter." "It's so warm inside." "But he has to be quick about it." "It'II be cold soon." "STABLER:" "Why does he have to be quick now?" "To be born again." "Are we talking religion now?" "No." "Where's the one place that your mother can never leave you?" "(GRUNTS)" "Psychiatric pap." "You always blame Mom." "Yeah, yeah." "Well, why not?" "I mean, look at your mother." "Leave her out of this." "She couldn't stand you." "She left you with your grandparents." "When they died, she shipped you off to foster care." "She came and got me." "She loved me." "Matt, tell the truth." "She got married." "She had a daughter with her new husband." "And when she left him, she took your half-sister with her and left you behind." "Again." "I mean, obviously, she must have loathed you." "She saw the real you and it made her want to vomit." "How many times did she tell you she wished you'd been aborted?" "She never said that." "She loved me." "She never said that, ever." "I'm done talking to you." "We're not finished, Matt." "You're helping us with this one case." "We've covered dread and dependency." "Now we're gonna see how Debbie Cooper was degraded." "How many times was the killer with her postmortem, huh?" "What are you talking about?" "That's obscene." "Just think like the killer." "Go ahead." "How should I know?" "Ask the shrink." "He's probably treated psychos like that." "It depends on how often the killer visited the body." "How many times did you check on your victims?" "Hey, I only went back to see if they were still where I Ieft them." "That's all." "Not this guy." "He went back to be with them, you know?" "I can't help you." "Do you believe I'm gonna think any less of you?" "I'm telling you, I never messed around with them after they were dead." "The guy you're looking for is sick." "Real sick." "What woman alive would be with you, though?" "Vivian Parish." "I talked with her." "She said you had a tough time closing the deal." "Well, if she said that, then the bitch lied." "You're a cop, you're supposed to tell the difference." "Oh, I can and I do." "It's in their nature." "They say they don't want it but they really do." "No means yes." "Yes means no." "You know, I should've disappeared the whore before she went out west." "I missed my chance by 20 minutes." "But she knew who you were and she was way ahead of you." "She was an idiot, a moon-eyed cow." "Debbie just wanted someone to tell her ugly ass that she was pretty." "Thought she was in a Harlequin romance." "Stupid bitch." "STABLER:" "Debbie?" "slip of the tongue." "One of my Jersey girls." "No, it's not." "None of them are named Debbie or Deborah." "None of the middle names match, either." "Why don't you stop lying?" "Let's just get down to it." "You know, you're not as smart as you think you are." "What time is it?" "CABOT:" "How many of these have you done?" "This is my second." "If my presence wasn't required, I wouldn't be here." "So you can ask for the death penalty but you cannot stomach the reality?" "I do my job." "I do it for the families." "I don't have to like it." "(ALARM BLARING)" "Move!" "Go!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "What's going on?" "Wait!" "Just move!" "Move!" "Hey, hey!" "Move!" "Lock it down!" "Lock it down!" "What's going on, Mr. Messinger?" "Is someone trying to escape?" "I don't know, Mr. Pierce, but we'II be safe here." "This isn't gonna stop the execution, right?" "(MAN CHATTERING ON PA)" "Debbie didn't fight back." "OFFICER:" "Get him off!" "Get him!" "Hurry up!" "Get him off of him!" "Get him off!" "You okay?" "Got him?" "Don't!" "That's what he wants!" "Any news on Huang?" "He's going to be okay, but they want to keep him overnight." "And Brodus?" "He's on a ventilator." "I have to tell the families." "I'II do it." "I think you've done enough." "They need to know that he planned this." "I'II explain it to them." "The only thing that matters to them is we can't execute him now." "The state can't execute an unhealthy man." "It's the Iaw." "So as long as he's in a coma, we can't get justice." "What a waste." "You're wrong." "I got a confession on Debbie Cooper." "MESSINGER:" "They won't care." "Would you?" "Go home." "(CROWD CLAMORING)"

"She isn't coming yet, Toto." "Did she hurt you?" "She tried to, didn't she?" "Come on." "We'll go tell Uncle Henry and Auntie Em." "Aunt Em!" "Aunt Em!" "Listen to what Miss Gulch did to Toto" "Dorothy, please!" "We're counting!" "But she hit him" "Don't bother us now, honey." "The incubator's gone bad and we're likely to lose a lot of our chicks." "That poor little thing." "But Miss Gulch hit Toto with a rake because she says he chases her nasty old cat every day!" "seventy." "Dorothy, please!" "But he doesn't do it every day!" "Just once or twice a week." "And he can't catch her old cat anyway." "Now she says she'll" "Dorothy!" "We're busy." "Oh, all right." "How's she coming?" "Take it easy." "You got my finger!" "Why don't you get your finger out of the way?" "There you are." "Right on my finger!" "Lucky it wasn't your head!" "Zeke, what am I going to do about Miss Gulch?" "Just because Toto" "Listen, honey, I got them hogs to get in." "You ain't using your head." "You'd think you didn't have any brains." "I have so got brains!" "Why don't you use them?" "Don't go by Miss Gulch's place." "Then Toto won't get in her garden, and you won't get in no trouble." "Oh, Hunk, you just won't listen, that's all." "Well, your head ain't made of straw, you know." "Get in there before I make a dime bank out of you!" "Listen, kid are you gonna let that old Gulch heifer try and buffalo you?" "She ain't nothing to be afraid of." "Have a little courage." "I'm not afraid of her." "Next time she squawks, walk up to her and spit in her eye." "That's what I'd do." "Help me, Zeke!" "Get me out of here!" "Help!" "Are you all right, Dorothy?" "Yes, I'm all right." "I fell in and Zeke" "Why, Zeke, you're just as scared as I am!" "You gonna let a little pig make a coward out of you?" "Look at you" "What's all this jabber-wapping when there's work to be done?" "I know three farm hands that'll be out of a job!" "Dorothy was-- l saw you tinkering with that contraption, Hickory." "You and Hunk get back to that wagon." "All right." "But someday they'll erect a statue to me" "Well, don't start posing for it now." "Can't work on an empty stomach." "Have some crullers." "Gosh, Mrs. Gale." "Just fried." "You see, Dorothy toppled into the-- lt's no place for Dorothy around a pigsty!" "Feed those hogs before they worry themselves into anemia!" "Do you know what Miss Gulch said she was going to do to Toto?" "She said she'd" "Stop imagining things." "You're always in a fret over nothing." "You just help us out today and find a place where you won't get into any trouble." "Someplace where there isn't any trouble." "Do you suppose there is such a place, Toto?" "There must be." "It's not a place you can get to by a boat or a train." "It's far, far away." "Behind the moon beyond the rain...." "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" "Way up high" "There's a land that I heard of" "Once in a lullaby" "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" "Skies are blue" "And the dreams that you dare to dream" "Really do come true" "Someday I'll wish upon a star" "And wake up where the clouds are far behind me" "Where troubles melt like lemon drops" "Away above the chimney tops" "That's where you'll find me" "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" "Bluebirds fly" "Birds fly Over the Rainbow" "Why then oh, why can't I?" "If happy little bluebirds fly" "Beyond the rainbow" "Why, oh, why can't I?" "Mr. Gale." "Howdy, Miss Gulch." "I want to see you and your wife about Dorothy." "What has Dorothy done?" "What's she done?" "I'm all but lame from the bite on my leg!" "You mean, she bit you?" "No, her dog!" "She bit her dog, eh?" "No." "That dog's a menace. I'm taking him to make sure he's destroyed." "Destroyed!" "Toto?" "Oh, you can't!" "You mustn't!" "Auntie Em!" "Uncle Henry!" "You won't let her, will you?" "Of course we won't." "Will we, Em?" "Please, Aunt Em!" "Toto didn't know he was doing anything wrong." "I'm the one that ought to be punished." "Send me to bed without supper." "Hand over that dog or I'll bring a suit that'll take your farm!" "The law protects folks against dogs that bite!" "How about if she ties him up?" "He's gentle." "With gentle people, that is." "That's for the sheriff to decide." "This order allows me to take him." "Unless you want to go against the law." "We can't go against the law." "I'm afraid Toto has to go." "Now you're seeing reason." "Here's what I'm taking him in, so he can't attack me again." "I won't let you take him!" "You go away!" "I'll bite you myself!" "You wicked old witch!" "Uncle Henry, Auntie Em, don't let her take Toto!" "I've got an order!" "Let me have him!" "Put him in the basket, Henry." "The idea!" "Don't, Uncle Henry." "Oh, Toto!" "Almira Gulch, just because you own half the county doesn't mean you can run the rest of us!" "For 23 years I've been dying to tell you what I thought of you!" "And now" "Well, being a Christian woman, I can't say it!" "Toto, darling!" "I got you back!" "You came back!" "I'm so glad!" "They'll be coming back for you in a minute." "We've got to get away!" "We've got to run away!" "Well, well, well!" "Houseguests, eh?" "And who might you be?" "No, no." "Now, don't tell me." "Let's see." "You're traveling in disguise." "No, that's not right." "You're going on a visit." "No, I'm wrong." "You're running away." "How did you guess?" "Professor Marvel never guesses." "He knows!" "Now, why are you running away?" "No, no." "Now, don't tell me." "They don't understand you at home." "They don't appreciate you." "You want to see other lands." "Big cities, big mountains, big oceans." "Why, it's just like you could read what was inside of me." "Toto, that's not polite!" "We haven't been asked yet." "He's perfectly welcome." "As one dog to another, huh?" "Here now, where were we...?" "Why can't we go with you and see the crowned heads of Europe?" "Do you know any?" "Oh, you mean the thing...." "l never do anything without consulting my crystal first." "Let's go inside here." "We'll" "Just come along. I'll show you." "That's right." "Here." "Sit right down here." "That's it." "This is the same genuine, magic, authentic crystal used by the priests of Isis and Osiris in the days of the Pharaohs in which Cleopatra saw the approach of Julius Caesar and Marc Anthony." "And so on, and so on." "Now, you'd better close your eyes, my child, for a moment in order to be better in tune with the infinite." "We can't do these things without reaching out into the infinite." "Yes, that's all right." "Now you can open them." "We'll gaze into the crystal." "What's this I see?" "A house with a picket fence and a barn with a weathervane of a running horse." "That's our farm!" "There's a woman." "She's wearing a polka-dot dress." "Her face is careworn." "That's Aunt Em." "Yes, her name is Emily." "That's right." "What's she doing?" "Well, I can't quite see." "Why, she's crying." "Someone has hurt her." "Someone has just about broken her heart." "Me?" "Well, it's someone she loves very much." "Someone she's been very kind to." "Someone she's taken care of in sickness." "I had the measles once, and she stayed right by me every minute." "What's she doing now?" "Yes, she's" "What's this?" "Why, she's putting her hand on her heart!" "She's dropping down on the bed!" "Well, that's all." "The crystal's gone dark." "You don't suppose she could really be sick, do you?" "l've got to go home right away!" "l thought you were going with me." "No, I have to get to her right away!" "Come on, Toto!" "Come on!" "Goodbye, Professor Marvel." "And thanks a lot!" "Better get under cover, Sylvester." "A storm's blowing up." "A whopper, to speak in the vernacular of the peasantry." "Poor little kid." "I hope she gets home all right." "Get them horses loose!" "Where's Hickory?" "Hickory!" "Doggone it!" "It's a twister!" "It's a twister!" "Dorothy!" "Everybody in the storm cellar!" "Henry, I can't find Dorothy!" "She's out in the storm!" "We can't look for her now." "Come on, get in the cellar!" "Hurry up!" "Auntie Em!" "Auntie Em!" "Uncle Henry!" "We must be up inside the cyclone!" "Miss Gulch!" "Toto I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore." "We must be over the rainbow!" "Now I know we're not in Kansas." "Are you a good witch or a bad witch?" "Who, me?" "I'm not a witch at all." "I'm Dorothy Gale, from Kansas." "is that the witch?" "Who, Toto?" "Toto's my dog." "I'm a little muddled." "The Munchkins called me because a new witch just dropped a house on the Wicked Witch of the East." "And there's the house, and here you are and that's all that's left of the Wicked Witch of the East." "What the Munchkins want to know is, are you a good witch or a bad witch?" "But I've already told you, I'm not a witch at all." "Witches are old and ugly." "What was that?" "The Munchkins." "They're laughing because I am a witch." "I'm Glinda, the Witch of the North." "You are?" "I beg your pardon!" "But I've never heard of a beautiful witch." "Only bad witches are ugly." "The Munchkins are happy because you freed them from the Wicked Witch of the East." "But if you please, what are Munchkins?" "The little people who live here." "It's Munchkinland and you are their national heroine." "It's all right." "You may all come out and thank her."

"Their magic must be powerful or she wouldn't want them so badly." "Stay out of this, Glinda, or I'll fix you as well!" "Oh, rubbish!" "You have no power here." "Begone, before somebody drops a house on you too." "Very well. I'll bide my time." "And as for you, it's true I can't attend to you here and now as I'd like." "But just try to stay out of my way!" "Just try!" "I'll get you, my pretty and your little dog too!" "It's all right." "You can get up." "She's gone!" "It's all right." "You can all get up." "What a smell of sulfur!" "I'm afraid you've made an enemy of the Wicked Witch." "The sooner you get out of Oz altogether, the safer you'll sleep, my dear." "Oh, I'd give anything to get out of Oz altogether." "But which is the way back to Kansas?" "I can't go the way I came." "No, that's true." "The only person who might know would be the great and wonderful Wizard of Oz himself." "The Wizard of Oz?" "is he good or is he wicked?" "Oh, very good, but very mysterious." "He lives in the Emerald City, a long journey from here." "Did you bring your broomstick with you?" "No, I'm afraid I didn't." "Well, then, you'll have to walk." "The Munchkins will see you to the border of Munchkinland." "And remember, never let those ruby slippers off your feet for a moment or you will be at the mercy of the Wicked Witch of the West." "But how do I start for Emerald City?" "It's always best to start at the beginning." "And all you do is follow the Yellow Brick Road." "But what happens if l" "Just follow the Yellow Brick Road." "Goodbye!" "Goodbye!" "My!"

"That's funny." "Wasn't he pointing the other way?" "Of course, people do go both ways." "Why, you did say something, didn't you?" "Are you doing that on purpose, or can't you make up your mind?" "That's the trouble." "I can't make up my mind." "I haven't got a brain." "Only straw." "How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?" "I don't know." "But some people without brains do a lot of talking, don't they?" "Yes, I guess you're right." "Well, we haven't really met properly, have we?" "Why, no." "How do you do?" "How do you do?" "Very well, thank you." "l'm not feeling at all well." "It's very tedious being stuck up here all day long with a pole up your back." "Oh, dear." "That must be terribly uncomfortable."

"I just keep picking it up and putting it back in again." "My!" "It's good to be free!" "Did I scare you?" "I just thought you hurt yourself." "I didn't scare you?" "No, of course not." "I didn't think so." "Boo!" "Scat!" "Boo!" "You see?" "I can't even scare a crow." "They come from miles around just to eat in my field and laugh in my face." "Oh, I'm a failure, because I haven't got a brain!" "What would you do with a brain if you had one?" "Do?" "Why, if I had a brain, I could" "I could while away the hours Conferring with the flowers" "Consulting with the rain" "And my head I'd be scratchin' While my thoughts were busy hatchin'" "If I Only Had a Brain" "I'd unravel every riddle For any individ'le" "In trouble or in pain" "With the thoughts you'd be thinkin' You could be another Lincoln" "If you only had a brain" "Oh, I could tell you why" "The ocean's near the shore" "I could think of things I never thunk before" "And then I'd sit And think some more" "I would not be just a nothin' My head all full of stuffin'" "My heart all full of pain" "I would dance and be merry Life would be a ding-a-derry" "If I Only Had a Brain" "Wonderful!" "If our scarecrow back in Kansas could do that..." "...the crows would be scared to pieces!" "They would?" "Where's Kansas?" "That's where l live." "I want to get back there so badly, I'm going to Emerald City to get the Wizard of Oz to help me." "You're going to see a wizard?" "Do you think if I went, this wizard would give me brains?" "I couldn't say." "But even if he didn't, you'd be no worse off than you are now." "Yes, that's true." "But maybe you better not." "I've got a witch mad at me, and you might get into trouble." "Witch?" "I'm not afraid of a witch!" "I'm not afraid of anything!" "Except a lighted match." "I don't blame you." "But I'd face a whole box of them for the chance of getting some brains." "I won't be any trouble, because I don't eat a thing." "And I won't try to manage things, because I can't think." "Won't you take me with you?" "Of course I will!" "Hooray!" "We're off to see a wizard!" "You're not starting out very well." "l'll try!" "Really, I will!" "To Oz?" "To Oz!"

"How would like to have someone come along and pick something off of you?" "Oh, dear!" "I keep forgetting I'm not in Kansas." "Come along, Dorothy." "You don't want any of those apples." "Are you hinting my apples aren't what they ought to be?" "Oh, no!" "It's just that she doesn't like little green worms!" "Oh, you!" "I'll show you how to get apples." "Hooray!" "I guess that did it!" "Help yourself." "Why, it's a man!" "A man made out of tin!" "Yes...!" "Look!" "Did you say something?" "He said "oilcan."" "Oil can what?" "Oilcan?" "Here it is." "Where do you want to be oiled first?" "He said his mouth." "The other side." "My goodness!" "I can talk again!" "Oil my arms, please." "Oil my elbows." "Here." "Did that hurt?" "No, it feels wonderful." "I've held that axe up for ages." "Goodness!" "How did you ever get like this?" "About a year ago I was chopping that tree when suddenly it began to rain." "And right in the middle of a chop, I rusted solid." "And I've been that way ever since." "You're perfect now." "My neck." "My neck." "Perfect?" "Bang on my chest if you think I'm perfect."

"l'm a little rusty yet." "Oh, dear!" "That was wonderful!" "You know we were wondering why you couldn't come with us to ask the Wizard for a heart." "Suppose the Wizard wouldn't give me one when we got there." "Oh, but he will!" "He must!" "We've come such a long way already." "You call that long?" "Why, you've just begun!" "Helping the little lady along, are you, my fine gentlemen?" "Well, stay away from her or I'll stuff a mattress with you!" "And you!" "I'll use you for a beehive!" "Here, scarecrow!"

"I'll see you reach the Wizard, whether I get a heart or not." "Beehive!" "Bah!" "Let her try and make a beehive out of me!" "You're the best friends anybody ever had." "And it's funny, but I feel as if I've known you all the time." "But I couldn't have, could I?" "l don't see how." "You weren't around when I was stuffed and sewn together." "And I was standing over there rusting for the longest time." "Still, I wish I could remember." "But I guess it doesn't matter anyway." "We know each other now." "That's right." "We do." "To Oz?"

"My goodness, what a fuss you're making!" "Naturally, when you go around picking on things weaker than you are...." "You're nothing but a big coward!" "You're right, I am a coward!" "I haven't any courage at all." "I even scare myself!" "Look at the circles under my eyes." "I haven't slept in weeks." "Why don't you try counting sheep?" "That doesn't do any good."

"And him a brain." "He could give you some courage." "Wouldn't you feel degraded to be seen in the company of a cowardly lion?" "I would." "No, of course not." "Gee, that's awfully nice of you." "My life has been simply unbearable." "Well, it's all right now." "The Wizard'll fix everything." "It's been in me so long." "I just gotta tell you how I feel." "Come on!"

"Silence whippersnapper!" "The beneficent Oz has every intention of granting your requests." "What's that?" "What'd he say?" "What'd he say?" "But first, you must prove yourselves worthy by performing a very small task." "Bring me the broomstick of the Witch of the West." "But if we do that, we'll have to kill her to get it." "Bring me her broomstick and I'll grant your requests." "Now go!" "But what if she kills us first?" "I said go!" ""l'd turn back if I were you."" "I believe there's spooks around here." "That's ridiculous!" "Spooks!" "That's silly." "Don't you believe in spooks?" "No." "Why, only" "Are you all right?" "I do believe in spooks." "I do, I do, I do, I do." "I do believe in spooks." "I do, I do, I do, I do, I do!" "You'll believe in more than that before I'm finished with you." "Take your army and bring me that girl and her dog." "Do what you like with the others, but I want her alive." "They'll give you no trouble." "I promise you that." "I've sent a little insect on ahead to take the fight out of them." "Take special care of those slippers." "I want those most of all." "Now, fly!" "Fly!" "Bring me that girl and her slippers!" "Help!" "Help!" "Go away now!" "Toto!" "Toto!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "What happened to you?" "They tore my legs off and threw them over there!" "Then they took my chest and threw it over there!" "That's you all over." "They sure knocked the stuffings out of you." "Don't stand there." "Put me together." "We've got to find Dorothy!" "Now, let's see...." "What a nice little dog." "And you, my dear." "What an unexpected pleasure." "It's so kind of you to visit me in my loneliness." "What are you gonna do with my dog?" "Give him back!" "All in good time, my little pretty." "All in good time." "Please give me back my dog." "Certainly, certainly when you give me those slippers." "But the Good Witch told me not to." "Very well." "Throw that basket in the river." "No!" "You can have your old slippers, but give me back Toto!" "That's a good little girl." "I knew you'd see reason!" "I'm sorry!" "I didn't do it." "Can I still have my dog?" "No!" "Fool that I am, I should have remembered those slippers will never come off as long as you're alive." "But that's not what's worrying me." "It's how to do it." "These things must be done delicately or you hurt the spell." "Run, Toto, run!" "Catch him, you fool!" "Run, Toto, run!" "He got away!" "He got away!" "Which is more than you will!" "Drat, you and your dog!" "You've been more trouble to me than you're worth." "But it'll soon be over now!" "Do you see that?" "That's how much longer you've got to be alive." "And it isn't long, my pretty." "It isn't long!" "I can't wait forever to get those shoes!" "I'm frightened." "I'm frightened, Auntie Em!" "I'm frightened." "Where are you?" "It's me. lt's Auntie Em." "We're trying to find you." "Where are you?" "I'm here in Oz, Auntie Em." "I'm locked up in the Witch's castle and I'm trying to get home to you, Auntie Em!" "Oh, Auntie Em, don't go away!" "I'm frightened!" "Come back!" "Come back!" ""Auntie Em, Auntie Em!" "Come back!"" "I'll give you Auntie Em, my pretty!" "Look!" "There's Toto!" "Where'd he come from?" "Why, don't you see?" "He's come to take us to Dorothy." "Come on, fellas!" "I hope my strength holds out." "I hope your tail holds out." "What's that?" "That's the castle of the Wicked Witch!" "Dorothy's in that awful place?" "l hate to think of her in there." "We've got to get her out." "Don't cry now." "We haven't got the oilcan, and you've been squeaking enough as it is." "Who's them?" "Who's them?" "l've got a plan how to get in there." "Fine." "He's got a plan." "And you're gonna lead us." "Yeah." "Me?" "Yes, you." "l gotta get her out of there?" "That's right." "All right, I'll go in there for Dorothy." "Wicked Witch or no Wicked Witch guards or no guards, I'll tear them apart." "I may not come out alive, but I'm going in there." "There's only one thing I want you to do." "What's that?" "Talk me out of it." "No, you don't!" "Oh, no." "Now, wait a minute." "Up!" "Come on, I've got another idea." "Do you think it would be polite, dropping in like this?" "Where do we go now?" "There!" "Wait!" "We better make sure." "Dorothy, are you in there?" "It's us!" "Yes!" "It's me!" "She's locked me in!" "We gotta get her out!" "Open the door!" "Oh, hurry!" "Please hurry!" "The hourglass is almost empty!" "Stand back!" "I knew you'd come!" "I knew you would!" "Hurry, we've got no time to lose!" "Going so soon?" "I wouldn't hear of it." "Why, my little party's just beginning." "Trapped." "Trapped like mice...rats!" "That's right." "Don't hurt them right away." "We'll let them think about it a little first." "Seize them!" "Seize them!" "Stop them, you fools!" "Seize them!" "Seize them!" "There they go!" "Now we've got them!" "Half you go this way, half you go that way." "Hurry!" "Hurry!" "Where do we go now?" "This way." "Come on!" "Back!" "Back!" "Well!" "Ring-around the rosie, a pocket full of spears!" "Thought you'd be pretty foxy, didn't you?" "The last to go will see the first three go before her." "And her mangy little dog too!" "How about a little fire, Scarecrow?" "Help!" "I'm burning!" "I'm burning!" "It's burning!" "Don't touch that water!" "You cursed brat!" "Look what you've done!" "I'm melting!" "Melting!" "What a world!" "What a world!" "Who would've thought a good little girl like you could destroy my beautiful wickedness?" "Look out!" "Look out!" "I'm going." "She's dead." "You've killed her." "I didn't mean to kill her." "Really, I didn't." "It's just that he was on fire." "Hail to Dorothy!" "The Wicked Witch is dead!" "Hail!" "Hail to Dorothy!" "The Wicked Witch is dead!" "The broom." "May we have it?" "Please." "And take it with you." "Thank you so much!" "Now we can go tell the Wizard the Wicked Witch is dead!" "The Wicked Witch is dead!" "Can I believe my eyes?" "Why have you come back?" "Please, sir." "We've done what you told us." "We've brought you the broomstick of the Wicked Witch." "We melted her." "You liquidated her, eh?" "Very resourceful." "Yes, sir." "So we'd like you to keep your promise to us, if you please." "Not so fast." "Not so fast!" "I'll have to give the matter a little thought." "Go away and come back tomorrow." "Tomorrow?" "But I want to go home now!" "You've had plenty of time already." "Do not arouse the wrath of the Great and Powerful Oz!" "I said come back tomorrow!" "If you were really great and powerful, you'd keep your promises." "Do you presume to criticize the Great Oz?" "You ungrateful creatures!" "Think yourselves lucky that I'm giving you audience tomorrow instead of 20 years from now!" "The Great Oz has spoken!" "Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain." "The Great and-- Oz has spoken." "Who are you?" "Well, I am the Great and Powerful Wizard of Oz." "You are?" "I don't believe you!" "I'm afraid it's true." "There's no other Wizard except me." "You humbug!" "Yes, that's exactly so. I'm a humbug." "You're a very bad man!" "No, my dear. I'm a very good man." "I'm just a very bad wizard." "What about the heart you promised Tin Man?" "And the courage you promised Cowardly Lion?" "And Scarecrow's brain?" "Why, anybody can have a brain." "That's a very mediocre commodity." "Every pusillanimous creature that crawls on the earth or slinks through slimy seas has a brain." "Back where l come from, we have universities seats of great learning, where men go to become great thinkers." "They think deep thoughts, and with no more brains than you have." "But they have one thing you haven't got." "A diploma." "Therefore, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Universitatus Committeeatum E Pluribus Unum I hereby confer upon you the honorary degree of Th.D." "Th.D.?" "That's Doctor of Thinkology." "The sum of the square roots of two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side." "Oh, joy!" "Rapture!" "I've got a brain!" "How can I thank you enough?" "Well, you can't." "As for you, my fine friend you're a victim of disorganized thinking." "You are under the delusion that because you run away from danger you have no courage." "You're confusing courage with wisdom." "Back where l come from, we have men who are called "heroes."" "Once a year, they take their fortitude out of mothballs and parade it down the main street." "And they have no more courage than you have." "But they have one thing that you haven't got." "A medal." "Therefore for meritorious conduct, extraordinary valor conspicuous bravery against wicked witches I award you the Triple Cross." "You are now a member of the Legion of Courage." "Shucks, folks, I'm speechless." "As for you, my galvanized friend, you want a heart." "You don't know how lucky you are not to have one." "Hearts will never be practical until they can be made unbreakable." "But I still want one." "Back where l come from, there are men who do nothing all day but good deeds." "They are called phil" "Good-deed-doers." "And their hearts are no bigger than yours." "But they have one thing you haven't got." "A testimonial." "Therefore, in consideration of your kindness I take pleasure at this time in presenting you with a small token of our esteem and affection." "And remember, my sentimental friend that a heart is not judged by how much you love but by how much you are loved by others." "It ticks!" "Listen!" "Look, it ticks!" "Read what my medal says. "Courage."" "Ain't it the truth!" "Ain't it the truth!" "Oh, they're all wonderful." "Hey, what about Dorothy?" "Yes, how about Dorothy?" "Dorothy next." "I don't think there's anything in that black bag for me." "You force me into a cataclysmic decision." "The only way to get Dorothy to Kansas is for me to take her myself." "Oh, will you?" "Could you?" "But are you clever enough to manage it?" "Child, you cut me to the quick!" "I'm an old Kansas man myself born and bred in the western wilderness premier balloonist par excellence to the Miracle Wonderland Carnival Company." "Until one day, while performing feats of stratospheric skill never before attempted by civilized man an unfortunate phenomena occurred." "The balloon failed to return to the fair." "It did?" "Weren't you frightened?" "You are talking to a man who has laughed in the face of death sneered at doom and chuckled at catastrophe. I was petrified." "Suddenly the wind changed and the balloon floated down into this noble city where l was instantly acclaimed Oz, the first wizard deluxe!" "Times being what they were, I accepted the job retaining my balloon against the advent of a quick getaway." "And in that balloon, dear Dorothy you and I will return to the land of E Pluribus Unum." "My friends. I mean, my friends!" "This is positively the finest exhibition ever to be shown be that as it may." "I, your Wizard per ardua ad alta am about to embark upon a hazardous and technically unexplainable journey into the outer stratosphere!" "To confer, converse and otherwise hobnob with my brother wizards." "And I hereby decree that until what time if any, that I return the Scarecrow, by virtue of his highly superior brains shall rule in my stead assisted by the Tin Man, by virtue of his magnificent heart and the Lion, by virtue of his courage." "Obey them as you would me." "Thank you." "Come back!" "Don't go without me." "I'll be right back." "Stop that dog!" "This is a highly irregular procedure." "This is absolutely unprecedented!" "Ruined my exit!" "Come back!" "Come back!" "Don't go without me!" "Please come back!" "I can't come back!" "I don't know how it works!" "Goodbye, folks!" "Goodbye!" "Now I'll never get home." "Stay with us then, Dorothy." "We all love you." "We don't want you to go." "That's very kind of you but this could never be like Kansas." "Auntie Em must have stopped wondering what happened to me by now." "Oh, Scarecrow, what am I going to do?" "Look!" "Here's someone who can help you!" "Will you help me?" "Can you help me?" "You don't need help any longer." "You've always had the power to go back to Kansas." "I have?" "Why didn't you tell her before?" "Because she wouldn't have believed me." "She had to learn it for herself." "What have you learned, Dorothy?" "I think that it that it wasn't enough just to want to see Uncle Henry and Auntie Em." "And it's that if I ever go looking for my heart's desire again I won't look any further than my own back yard because if it isn't there I never really lost it to begin with." "is that right?" "That's all it is." "But that's so easy!" "I should've thought of it for you." "I should've felt it in my heart." "She had to find it out for herself." "Now those magic slippers will take you home in two seconds." "Toto too?" "Toto too." "Now?" "Whenever you wish." "Oh, dear." "That's too wonderful to be true!" "It's gonna be so hard to say goodbye." "I love you all too." "Goodbye, Tin Man." "Don't cry." "You'll rust so dreadfully." "Here." "Here's your oilcan." "Goodbye." "Now I know I've got a heart because it's breaking." "Goodbye, Lion." "I know it isn't right but I'm gonna miss the way you used to holler for help before you found your courage." "I would never have found it if it hadn't been for you." "I think I'll miss you most of all." "Are you ready now?" "Say goodbye, Toto." "Yes, I'm ready now." "Then close your eyes and tap your heels together three times and think to yourself "There's no place like home." "There's no place like home."" "There's no place like home." "There's no place like home." "Wake up, honey." "Dorothy, dear. lt's Aunt Em, darling." "Oh, Auntie Em, it's you!" "Yes, darling." "Hello there!" "Anybody home?" "I dropped by because I heard the little girl got caught in the big" "She seems all right now." "She got quite a bump." "We kind of thought she was gonna leave us." "But I did leave you." "That's just the trouble." "And I tried to get back for days!" "There, there, lie quiet now." "You just had a bad dream." "Remember me your old pal, Hunk?" "And me Hickory?" "You couldn't forget my face, could you?" "But it wasn't a dream." "It was a place." "And you and you and you and you were there." "But you couldn't have been, could you?" "We dream lots of silly things when we" "No, Aunt Em, this was a real, truly live place." "And I remember that some of it wasn't very nice but most of it was beautiful." "But just the same, all I kept saying to everybody was, "l want to go home!"" "And they sent me home." "Doesn't anybody believe me?" "Of course we believe you, Dorothy." "But anyway, Toto, we're home!" "Home!" "And this is my room and you're all here." "And I'm not going to leave here ever, ever again because I love you all." "And oh, Auntie Em there's no place like home!" "English Subtitles by GELULA CO., Inc."

"It had to be him." "We're sick of you ." "Next time, I'll rip your ears off." "For all the use they are..." "Come on." "You're always causing trouble." "Saturno isn't a bad boy." "A bit confused, but smart." "He has strange ideas at times." "He's just like my late husband, may he burn in hell." "If you'll forgive me." "This young lady is Don Lope Garrido's ward." "She hasn't left the house for two weeks." "I'brought her with me to get some fresh air." "My pleasure, miss." "Excuse me." "It's for my mother." "She died recently." "Your son is too old now to stay on in this school." "Yes, it's time he earned his living." "He's capable enough, but he's always skiving." "He's easily distracted and very lazy." "But if he matures with the years, he could be a good craftsman." "Don Lope has found a place for him in a workshop." "He's a fine gentleman." "There are few like him now." "Where is God's grace going?" " To find a sweetheart." " He's right here, dear." "So old?" "Not that old!" "Don't bury me yet!" "Ma'am." "Come on, get out of here." "You're not taking all this, are you?" "As you wish." "This junk is of no interest." "I'don't want it in my house." "I've got enough." "Saturna!" "Sell all this to a second-hand dealer." "Except for the clothes that are passable." "And don't haggle, I'know you." " Take what he offers." " I'll do that, sir." " If there's anything you'd like..." " Yes, this crucifix." "My mother died with it in her hands." "Very well, but keep it in your room." "With time, I'll put certain superstitions out of your head." "Naturally, if you'd like anything else..." " No." " With this and the piano, that's all." "The piano?" "We sold it months ago." "The scores are still here." "I'd like to keep them." " Perhaps one day..." " Very well." "Your mother was a very good woman." "No one better, but no one sillier either." "You never enjoyed your father's wealth." "You were very young when he started to lose it all." "Leave that saucepan." "I'said I'didn't want any rubbish." "You know nothing about cooking, sir." "I'can use this." "You, get ready." "We're leaving now." " So soon?" " Yes." "What do you think she said a while ago?" "That she'd like to stay on here." "Look, I'can't maintain two houses and you can't live on your own." "Your mother asked me to look after you." "Where would you be better off than with me?" "Who would dare offend you if you're with me?" "Come along." "Stop thief!" "Catch him!" " Did you see a boy run past?" " With a handbag?" " Yes." " He went that way." "Come." "Why did you send him the wrong way?" "Because we must protect the weak." "The police represent strength." "Men like me always defend the weak, whoever they are, whatever their situation." "Never forget that, little one." "She's so beautiful!" "And so elegant!" "She was an upper class lady, married to a marquis." "But Don Lope got in the middle and..." " What did he do?" " Challenged her husband." "It was a real scandal." "It was even in the papers." "No one is better than Don Lope, but where there's a skirt, he has horns and a tail." "Get up, Tristana." "You're not a servant here." "You're the mistress, Saturna is here to serve you ." "Saturna, clean this up." "I'm very tired, I'walked a lot." "My feet are aching." " Shall I'bring your slippers?" " Thank you, you're an angel." "I'know I'keep you at home all the time, but I'can't bring you to the cafe, or let you go out walking." "And your mourning is a nuisance for everyone." "Whenever you wish, I'll take you to the theater." "It's up to you." "Thank you, Tristana." "Shall I'tell you something?" "You're my beloved daughter." "I'only ask you to love me like a father." "You're a good man." "Heavens, a visitor." "I'd forgotten." " You're receiving them like that?" " It doesn't matter, I'know them." "Come in." " Good evening, Lope." " Good evening." " Please, sit down." " This won't take long." "Well, gentlemen, when is the duel?" "Tomorrow." "At 7:00." " Where?" " In the woods." " Who'll take me?" " Someone will come for you." " And the weapons?" " Swords." "And in what conditions?" "Both parties have decided that it will be to first blood." "ls that possible?" " To first blood?" " Yes." "Do you think I'll agree to be judge of such a farce?" "I'don't like circuses!" "I'don't think honor is saved by a scratch on the skin." "So much for those good-for-nothings and their conscience." "Gentlemen, don't call on me again for matters of honor that have so little worth." "Stop!" "Take that!" "The first one to arrive is an idiot!" "Come in, miss." "I'know that Saturno's mother serves in your house." " That smells good." " It's fried bread ." " Like to taste it, miss?" " I've always liked it." " I'll have a little bit." " Get a plate." "It's a pauper's dish, you must excuse me." "If I'd known you were coming, I'd have added chorizo." " Maybe a fried egg?" " No, I'll have lunch at home." "I've never been in the bell tower." "But as Saturno is your son's friend," "I'wanted to come with them to hear the bells." "They wouldn't even hear a cannon firing in 1 942." "There's a lovely view outside!" "You're very lucky." "You must feel very important up here, like you ruled the world." "No, you get used to it and don't even notice." "And as for being important..." "Not at all." "We used to be important but not now." "Why not?" "In those days when there was a lot of religion, people timed things by the bells and they obeyed them." "There was the dying knell, the death knell, the fire warning, the victory bells, the call to mass and the peel for devotions." "People listened, they went to visit the dying, to bury the dead or to get their firearms if there was an alert." "Times have changed." "People are chasing after money, they don't listen." "They even complain when we ring the bell for mass because they say we wake them." " Would you like some more?" " Yes, I'd love some." "This is the bellringer's fried bread." " And the serving scoop?" " That too." "Come on." "Come on!" "Idiot!" "Scoundrel!" "Saturna!" "What's wrong, miss?" "Why did you shout?" "I'had a horrible dream!" "It was dreadful!" "The bell!" "Now, now, calm down." "It's all over." "What's wrong, my dear?" "Are you ill?" "A nightmare, sir." "Poor thing." "Fix one of your remedies for her." "A cup of lime tea or something." "Go, go." "Calm down, it's over." "You were shouting as if you'd seen the devil." "I'remember you as a little girl screaming when you saw me..." "Exactly like now." "It's over now, go to sleep." "Even if you have nightmares, it's good to dream." "The dead don't dream." "Good night, my dear." " Good afternoon." " Good afternoon, Don Lope." "Thank you." "The usual." "Why did you stop talking when you saw me?" "Please, carry on tearing me to bits." "What an idea!" "None of us would dare." "When you're not here, Don Zenón, we certainly dare to make fun of you." "And of you, too, when you're absent." "So why would you pardon me?" "It seems like a lack of respect not to have fun at your expense." "The truth is, we're running out of subjects." " We've talked of everything but you." " Thank you." "To be honest, we were discussing your refusal to judge a duel." "ls that true, or just a rumor?" "It's true." "It's true that there are no longer men of my kind." "Of our kind." "One thing has not changed between yesterday and today." "The taste for ladies." "I'totally agree, but today there is so much effeminacy." "I'm always surprised that you, so meticulous about honor, you are so tolerant when it comes to sins of love." "Don't worry, the question is very timely." "When it comes to women and love, I've never seen any sin." " If only that were true." " Chance would be a fine thing." "What a theory!" "And the Ten Commandments?" "I'respect all of them, except those to do with sex..." "because I'm sure they were added to the truly divine ones by Moses for political reasons that don't affect me." " This Don Lope..." " So any girl we meet with..." "Stop there, my friend." "There are distinctions." "When we meet with a woman, if she is consenting, and if we can make her consent, then the encounter should be pleasant." "But there are two exceptions:" "the wife of a friend, and that strange flower, so rare, that is born from perfect innocence." "Come out, bonehead!" "Saturno!" "I'said, come out of there!" "Come out now!" "Why shout if he can't hear you?" "He can't hear me?" "I'll teach him to lock himself in!" "He's been in there for an hour." "Open up or I'll kill you!" "Don't hit him!" "I'understand, and so does he." "Go on, it's clear your uncle doesn't like you to be late." "After working all day, he wants to go to bed early." "And he's doing me a favor boarding this one." "What are you doing here?" "All right, now get out." "Hello." "Supper!" ""The original sin of Spanish republicanism" ""has always been its attempt to cure with nothing but speeches" ""the gangrene of the institutions... "" "Please, that's stupid!" "Well, what a change!" "A boiled egg!" "As usual." " What aren't you eating?" " I'm not hungry." "That's not true." "There was only one left." " Here, eat it." " No, really." "I'said, eat it!" "Obey me." " Why don't you buy more food?" " With what?" "You won't let me buy on credit." "The income isn't enough to get through the month." "Well, we'll have to sort this out." "Filthy lucre..." "Like it or not, we are its slaves, my dear." "It only ceases to be filthy when it's for those who have the misfortune to need it, whoever they are." "If I'may say so, sir, "whoever they are" depends." "This chard is disgusting." "When you don't have money or appetite, you get in a bad mood, and then nothing is right." "Pass the wine." "What's wrong?" " What's wrong with her?" " What do you think?" "She's thinking of her mother." "Or she needs fresh air, she's been shut away for weeks." " Doesn't she go to mass?" " That's a lot of fun!" "She probably goes to breathe rather than out of devotion." "You should let me go out with her to take the sun." "If you want an honest woman, break her leg and keep her home." "Have you anything to say?" "You always wear the same dress." "Have you nothing else to put on?" "No, sir." "This can't go on." "It's getting on my nerves." "From tomorrow, no more mourning." "I'll see to renewing your wardrobe." "Mourning is a savage custom, like painting your face or tattooing your body." "It's pure Meneses silver." "This is worthless." "This is good, it's hallmarked." "They're two fine pieces." "But it's hard to sell them here." "How much?" "I'd give you 2,000 pesetas." "You say that it's authentic, and the papers seem to confirm that, but..." "the painting isn't signed." "I'd offer anyone else 3,000 pesetas, but..." "No more "buts." I'neither want nor accept favors." " Give me 5,000 pesetas." " But with the esteem I'have..." "Don't change esteem into merchandise." "Give me 5,000 pesetas for the lot." "I'll draw up the inventory of what I'm taking." "Make yourself at home." "You could have got a lot more from him." "It's a crime to sell them so cheaply." "I'loathe arguing about money." "Sir, don't be like that." "Go back to your pans." " If I'd known, I'myself could have..." " I'don't do business with friends." "Worse for you." "I'hate the commercial spirit." "This hawker or a millionaire industrialist, they're all the same." "Bloodsuckers!" "Let's see what this bandit is up to." " Lope, we can still talk..." " Please!" "Look at that couple." "Don't you get the sickly scent of conjugal happiness?" "I'don't understand." "Did you see that bovine look of resignation?" "That boredom?" "Farewell, love." "Never get married, Tristana." " One can be free and honorable." " Exactly." "Passion must be free." "It's a law of nature." "No chains or signatures or blessings!" "Which of these pillars do you like most?" "Now I'm the one who doesn't understand you." " Which one do you prefer?" " None or any one." "They're all the same." "They're never all the same." "There's always a difference." "Between two grapes, two loaves or two snowflakes, I'always choose." "There's always one I'like more." "I'prefer this one." "Then take it home with you." "And let's change the subject." "Well?" "I'was thinking about going to buy your slippers." "What do you mean?" "Come along, let's go." "Sometimes I'think that you like me a little." "At other times, no." "At times I'even have the unpleasant feeling that I'disgust you a bit." "Disgust me?" "No, just the opposite." " So you don't think badly of me?" " No." "You might even love me a little?" "Yes." "Give me a kiss." "No, not like that." " Saturna!" " Yes, sir?" "Weren't you going to your brother's?" "Yes, I've finished grinding the coffee." " I'm going now." " Hurry up." "Yes, sir." " Do you need anything else, sir?" " No, nothing." "The later you come back, the better." "Yes, sir." " Goodbye." " Goodbye." " Have you finished?" " No, not yet." "Leave that." " What if she comes back?" " She won't, not until supper time." "Anyway, it's time she got used to it." "What are you doing here?" "Out." "Where have you been, you scoundrel?" "I've told you to keep out of things that have nothing to do with you." "Say hello to Don Lope and the young lady, and then go away." "Sir, Saturno has come to see how you are." "Hello, you rascal." "Yes, yes, go on, sit down." "I'can't stand it anymore." "Tomorrow, I'm going out." "That's too soon." "Be patient." "I'hate being inactive and you seeing me like this." "You have to get sick some time." "Especially at your age." "What does age have to do with a cold!" "I'd like to see a strapping youth with this cold..." "And stop fussing!" "I'can do it." "And leave me in peace!" "As you wish." "As I'wish, and as you wish." "I'don't want to impose my wishes." "We're happy because neither you nor I have lost our sense of freedom." "Right now, you could tell me that you're tired of me, you could leave, and I'd say nothing." "Surely you wouldn't let me get to the corner." "Perhaps." "Sir, the bed is warm." "The limits of your freedom, Tristana, are set out by you in accordance with decency and your esteem for me." "You're so good, my dear." "How could I'not adore you?" "Leave me be." "Shall I'serve your lunch, miss?" "Yes, go on." "Afterwards, I'll bring you some broth, sir." "It's very tasty, miss." "It's a pleasure to see how Don Lope cares for you." " I'wish he'd love me less." " Poor man." "Are you still there, boy?" "Well?" "A lot of people getting beaten out there?" "A lot of beating?" "Poor workers." "Cheated and then beaten." "Work is a curse, Saturno." "Down with work that you have to do to survive." "That work isn't honorable, as some say." "All it does is fatten the exploiting swine." "However, what you do for pleasure ennobles man." "If only we could all work like that." "Look at me, I'd rather be hanged than work!" "So, I'live poorly but I'live without working." "That's some advice you're giving the boy!" "Just as well he's deaf, or else..." "Be careful you don't get beaten." "Take him away now." " You ate like a horse." " And so did you." " The partridges were delicious." " Excellent." " Good day to you!" " My dear notary." " And the family?" " Very well." " After you." "Go ahead." " Thank you." " Where would you like to go today?" " I'don't care." "One day, Don Lope will discover that we go out, and..." "And what?" "We hardly ever see him." "Let him find out." "I'can't stand him anymore." "I'll get into trouble for going with you." "Every day he gets older and more ridiculous." "I'haven't mentioned the bell in ages." "I'dreamed about it last night." "Dreams can be very tactless." "Don Lope's head as a clapper!" "If I'could only get away and never see him again..." " Saturna, tell me." " What is it?" "Look at those two streets?" "Which of them do you prefer?" " Whichever, I'don't know." " I'prefer this one." "Come on." "To tell the truth, I'preferred the other street." "No, not that way." "Where did he go?" "He's already bitten a child ." "He's got rabies!" "I'think it's the barber's dog." "Yes, and he's gone into a house." " Shall we go and see?" " You go if you wish," "I'don't like dogs, much less rabid ones." "I'toId the barber ages ago, but he wouldn't listen." "There's a rabid dog, and I'..." "Make yourself at home." "Sit down." " ls he Catalonian?" " Yes." " I'had him come from Barcelona." " I'see." " He's down there." " Leave this to me." "If I'may, I'll tell you something." "After this model," "I'd like to do a good portrait of you." "You have a very interesting face." "Where do you live?" " That dog won't bite anyone else." " Thank heavens you were here." "I'd have got him the first time, but I'moved so that the bullet wouldn't ricochet." " Well, good afternoon." " Goodbye." " You think I'm lying?" " No..." " And I'never joke." " Goodbye." "Wait!" "It's settled." "What will he think of me?" "I'said yes to everything." "I'couldn't take my eyes off him." "He'll think I'm a fool or an idiot." "And he'd be right." "I'even told him where I'live." "He insisted that he wanted to see me and I'said yes." "I'm so embarrassed!" "I'couldn't help myself." "But I'don't regret it." "If the old man finds out, it'll be terrible." "Saturna!" "Yes, sir." "Didn't you hear me?" " Iron this tie for me." " Yes, sir." "Why are you making this bed?" "Miss Tristana wants to sleep here on her own." " Why?" " I'don't know, sir." "Get dressed, we're going out." " Both of us?" " Who else?" "It's more decent to go out with me than to go alone." "Why?" "Get dressed." "Wafers!" "If I'laugh for joy, will you think I'm mad?" "You're up to something shady." "Your absences stink of meetings with some layabout or other." "I'm free, aren't I?" "I'm not accountable to anyone but myself." "I'm following your advice." "If I'catch you doing anything wrong, I'think I'll kill you." "I'prefer a tragedy to looking ridiculous in my decline." "There are no secrets for me." "With my experience in these things, no one can fool me." " Impossible!" " Lope, please!" "You've been warned." "Don't forget I'still have two obligations to you." "I'm your father and your husband." "One or other, as it suits me." " Clown." " Idiot." "I'need 1 0,000 pesetas." "Lend them to me and I'swear I'll pay you back." "You know I'don't feed heretics." "Keep your money, you pious old fool." "Patrito, God punished me by giving me a brother like that." "Fortunately, you've got the upper hand." "Yes, but only while I'live." "It's men who make the laws, daughter." "Good afternoon, Don Dimas." "Hello." "I'called you so you'd take your son away." " Has he done anything wrong?" " He doesn't do his work." " With his problem..." " You can be deaf and disciplined." "He should be here now." "Where's the dummy?" "He's always out in the yard." "I'bet he's been in there for over an hour." "Come out!" "Come out of there, you good-for-nothing!" "Aren't you ashamed?" "Everyone is working, and you..." "I'm taking you to work with your uncle." "On the building site." "That'll show you." "Move it!" "I'm sorry, Don Dimas." " Thank you for everything." " Don't mention it." " Goodbye, miss." " Thank you." "Saturna," " I'm going to see him." " Don't stay too long." "Go back home." "He's having a siesta today." "What shall I'say if he wakes up before you come back?" "That I'stayed in the street." "Leave me alone!" "Wait for me if you want." "I'thought you weren't coming, my dear." "I'had things to do." "I'can't stay long today." "You'll leave when I'say so." "I'want to finish your portrait soon." "He stayed at home today." "I've made coffee, and I've got some cakes you'll like." "It's ridiculous that you're scared of your guardian." "You should introduce me." "Don't light it, I'don't want anything." "When will you introduce me to your guardian?" "He's not my guardian." "He's more than that." "What?" "He's my husband." "I'wanted to tell you all this ages ago." "I'm not married to my husband, I'mean, my guardian." "I'mean, that man." "You can't imagine how I've suffered." "Now you know everything." "Forgive me." "I'know I'm dishonored." "But I'm free to love you." "What do you think?" "Or can't you forgive me?" "How do you prefer me?" "An unfaithful married woman or free?" "Do you still love me?" "Speak." "Say something, please." "I'm only deceiving him, he has no rights over me." "He deserves it." "At times I'hate him for all the harm he's done to me." "And at other times, I'confess," "I'was fond of him..." "like a father." "You must understand." "If he'd loved me as a daughter, things would be different." "He has a good side." "But for the rest, I'm ashamed to think of it." "His moods change in a moment." "And when it comes to women..." "Believe me, I'hate him with all my heart." "You respected me, thinking I'was innocent." "Disgusting old man!" "How could you do that?" "I've told you everything." "He took me in when I'was very young." "A child, do you understand?" "Go away." "Get out." "Tristana..." "Where have you come from, alone and so late?" "First of all, it's not late, and I'wasn't alone." " You're so pretty." "Did you run back?" " Yes." "Very well." "I'm going to get tidied up." "Please, clean the ribbon on my hat." "I've got a very important visit this afternoon." "You were lucky!" "He didn't scold you." "He certainly wanted to, but he didn't dare." "What a sight." "He's like a different man." "The cock loses his feathers and doesn't crow anymore." "Don't let bitterness eat you away." "Poor man." "If he'd treated me like a daughter, I'd have loved him." "Especially today, Saturna." "Tristana!" "We'll talk later." "You can't just come and go as you please." "I'm in a hurry now." "I'left my slippers in the bathroom." "Take them into my bedroom." "When he gets dressed up, he's brave again." "His feathers grow back." "These are disgusting." "If he asks for them, what should I'tell him?" "Tell him to buy new ones or go barefoot." "I'don't care." "I'don't want to leave on my own." "Come with me." "Can't you wait?" "I'only came for two months and look how long I've stayed." "I'm telling you again, leave that house and come with me." "Let me think about it." "It's not as easy as you think." "Then decide." "We have to sort this out." "Be patient, my love." "Do you think I'don't loathe my life as a slave?" "I'want to be free, to work." "I'wasn't a bad pianist, but when my mother died..." "If I'practiced a little, I'could give classes." "And you could paint." "It would be wonderful." "I'didn't study much, but I'think I'could do great things." "However, I'm no good at little things." "You do those things at home." "What did you say?" "Don't you see there are ladies here?" " That's all we need." " What are you talking about?" "I'don't have to put up with these things!" "You're insolent." "We can go to the police station." "That's right." "They'll teach you some decency." "Horacio, don't make a scene." "Let's go home." "She comes back later every day, and you have to help me with certain personal things." "You must know why she goes out so much and why she's so rebellious." "I'm not asking out of unhealthy curiosity." "I'm doing it for her." "She's still too young to look after herself." "If you love her, you should tell me so I'can root out the problem." "I'don't know anything." "You should ask her." "Don Lope wants to see you." "Sit down." "I'want to talk to you." "Tristana, I'm an old dog and I'know that when a young woman goes out every day, it's because she's found a bone." "I'don't know what kind of bone it is, but don't deny it." "So you want me to lie?" "You defend yourself badly and I'm standing my ground." "I'suppose that until now they've been innocent games, for if it were something else," "I'can tell you that no one makes a fool of me." "Speaking as your father, I'demand you explain yourself." "Your mother entrusted you to me, and I'will defend you and protect your honor." "You speak of honor?" "You?" "It's your fault that I've lost it!" "If my mother saw what you'd made of me!" "Who knows if, alone in this world, in other hands, your fate would have been worse." " Hypocrite." " You know you're not like the others." "Let me do with you what I've done with no other woman." "Look at you like a loved one, someone of my own blood." " Don't you believe me?" " Not a word." "I'm sick of always hearing the same thing." "Maybe I'was bad to you, but now I'want to be good." "You must listen to me." "I'don't want to act like a jealous husband at home whose stupidity I'know so well." "I'don't forbid you to go out, but I'don't like it." "There you are." "They're delicious, miss." "Try them." "He's calling me." "What can that young man want?" " What do you want?" " Come in, my dear." "Come over here, little one." "Come closer." "I'can't go to sleep knowing you're upset by what we said." "Forgive me if I'offended you." "Come and tell me about your loves." "There's nothing to tell." "Very well, I'll find out." "Even if you're bad to me, I've a lot to thank you for." "You've loved me in my old age, given me your youth and I'behaved badly." "But I'can't accept that I'm old." "Very well." "I'don't insist when I'm rejected." "Keep your youthful charm for some of those good-for-nothings!" "But I'could easily lose my temper and crush you like an ant..." "All the better!" "You don't scare me!" "Kill me when you want!" "You're very courageous." "I'might have known." "Go see him tomorrow." "Tell him to wait for me in the studio, alone." "I'll go, even if he kills me." "At least then he'll have a reason." " Well, gentlemen, good afternoon." " Good afternoon." "Are you a journalist now?" "That's all you needed." "No, I'don't want one." "Here." "What time do we leave?" "At 3:30." "I'll check the bags in the morning." " ls your studio bigger than this?" " Twice as big." "You can see the whole city from the terrace, and the sunset from the bed ." "It's perfect for a couple." " For lovers." " I'want you to be my wife." "I'll live with you for as long as you love me." "If you ever get tired of me, we'll each go our own way." "You remind me of that scoundrel." "You talk like him." "The worst thing is, he's right about many things." "There's a gentleman downstairs to see Don Horacio." " Downstairs, where?" " He's in the street." "How do you know he wants to see him?" "Because he told me!" "It's him." "Don't go down." "I'll speak to him." "This is my business." "Stay here, wait for me." " Horacio..." " I'said, wait for me." "You want to see me?" "Tell Tristana she's to come back immediately." "Then you and I'will resolve this matter like gentlemen." "You're going to stop walking up and down and go away." "I'm her guardian." "Guardian..." "She told me what kind of old pervert you are." "Tomorrow you will be visited by two friends." "Come here, Pepe." " Don't you see he's an old man?" " Keep out of this." " Shall we take you home?" " No, thank you." " Are you hurt?" " No, I'm fine." "Thank you." "Really, it's nothing." " Thank you, gentlemen." " Good night." "Goodbye." " Write to me." " Yes." "Don't forget." "Safe journey." "She's gone." "She'll be back, I'm sure of it." "Listen, Lope..." "I'was coming to see you." "I'know how you feel, but as a friend I'had to give you my condolences." "Thank you, but you know we loathed each other." "Yes, Lope, but she was your sister." "Do you think I'would go to my sister's burial, that parade of cassocks?" "I'remember my childhood." "She'll have died grieving, I'was still alive and sinning." "Do you believe she was thinking of something other than making her peace with God?" "Yes, of more earthly things." "If parents could take certain things to paradise," " ... childrenwouldgetnothing." " What are you saying?" "Anyway, I'm happy for you." "After all the hardship you can live comfortably." "Yes, the dead in the grave, the living..." " But, Lope..." " Come on, Cosme, I'll be late." "What I'wanted to say was..." "Remember that I'had to sell it all?" "I'bought it back from the same Jew." "Tristana..." "Tristful Ana..." "Well, I'won't drink any more tonight." "A drop, and that's it." "Here, drink some, woman..." "You don't want to?" "It's your loss." "Sir, I'have to tell you something." "I've kept it to myself for two days." "But as you're going to find out, the sooner the better." "Miss Tristana..." "is here." " Tristana?" " Yes, sir." " Why is she here?" " You should ask Don Horacio." " She came with him?" " Yes, he wants to talk to you." "I've got nothing to say." "If they want anything, she can come." "I'wish she could." "She's ill." "It's very serious, sir." "You haven't seen her for two years." "The poor girl's changed a lot." "Let's go." "First of all, please excuse my behavior at our last meeting." "I'm willing to satisfy you, however and wherever you wish." "That doesn't interest me now." "Please, sit down." "I've asked Tristana many times to marry me, but she's always refused." "I'm not rich, but she's never lacked anything." "We've been very happy." "But now she's very ill." " It may be incurable." " What does she have?" "A tumor in her leg." "The pain started a few weeks ago." "She's suffering terribly." "Has a doctor seen her?" "Here's the diagnosis." "I'don't understand this babble." "Why did you bring her here?" "She was determined to come." "She drove me crazy, insisting." "She thinks she's going to die." "She still thinks of you as a father." " She wants to die in your house." " And if I'don't take her in?" "I'll take her away." "I'm not trying to abandon her." "If I'open my doors to Tristana, what will you do?" "I'll stay in the city to see what happens." "I'wouldn't have the bad taste to impose my presence on you ." "Tell her I'll come to get her tomorrow with Saturna." " What happened?" " She won't get away from me now." "If she comes into my house she'll never leave it." "Come on." "Under the lamp." "A little more, that's fine." " Thank you." "Goodbye." " Goodbye." " Well?" " I've almost finished." "This heat will ease the pain." "It's incurable." " It hurts so much." " Come now." "No one has ever died from a sore knee." "How are you, my beauty?" "Better, aren't you?" "Saturno has come to see you." "Dr. Miquis says that you're much better now, and that pain is a sign of improvement." "Saturno, go away." "Come on, cheer up." "You'll see, in a few days you'll be up and even dancing." "I'know what I've got." "No more dancing, or even walking." "You have to fight." "I'm confident." "You should be too." "The piano you longed for is in the sitting room." "We'll see if that progress you boasted of was real." "I'can never play again." "But you don't play the piano with your leg!" " Come on, brighten up!" " With this pain..." "I'toId you, that's a good sign." "It means the illness is reacting." " How is my favorite patient?" " Worse than ever, doctor." "Leave me alone with her." " How are your spirits, Tristana?" " I'had a temperature last night." "I'm very ill, aren't I?" "Tell me the truth." "I've told you before that this is a common case." "It's painful, but that will soon pass." "A few days ago, I'wanted to live." "Now I'd rather die." "She's in a very bad way." "If you'd let me put on a poultice," " she'd be feeling better." " Don't talk rubbish." "My dear Don Lope, we are faced with what I'd feared ." "Tristana is very ill." " We have to speak clearly." " Go ahead." "She is suffering from blood poisoning." "We have to operate..." "to amputate her leg." "The poor girl." "She'll be horribly mutilated." " When?" " We can't wait another day." "What science is this when the only cure is amputation?" "Go and keep her company." "Find some other way." "Cut off both my legs if you want!" "Forgive me." "I'm mad and I'don't know what I'm saying." "Do whatever you think best." "My friend Luis Alonso, a surgeon, will help me." "Have this note sent to his home immediately." "I'think that, with the amputation, we may save her." "What?" "You may save her?" " ls it not certain?" " Science isn't infallible." "It would help if she had other sources of health." "I'know from experience how a clear conscience can help." "So find a priest this afternoon to hear her confession." "Priests in my house?" "Never!" "I'appreciate the advice, but I'can't accept it." "I'know Jesus was the first socialist, etc." "So what?" "The true priests are those of us who defend the innocent, the enemies of injustice, hypocrisy and filthy lucre." "I'm going to see the patient." "Thank you." "Excuse me." "Good morning." "Don't think this is a coincidence." "I'know you come here often, I'wanted to speak to you." " Sit down." " Thank you." "No, I'won't have anything, thank you." "Are you going to stay here long?" "I'can't go until I'know about Tristana..." "Yes, sir." "You know about her leg." "It's a pity, isn't it?" "All that charm, and she's crippled forever." "You understand my grief." "I'look at her with the purest, disinterested love." "That's why I'want to make her life pleasant." "Anyway..." "her fickle spirit needs you." "You think I'm a toy?" "I'can't share an old man's criterion." "And Tristana's feelings aren't as fickle as you think." "You're too young to understand certain things." " But we won't get angry over that." " What do you want from me?" "That you go and see her." "I'm not a monster, feelings change." "I've realized that she's missing something." "You, undoubtedly." "Go and see her every day." " It's embarrassing for me." " Go in the afternoons." "From 4:00 to 6:00." " That's when I'usually take a walk." " Thank you." "Don't thank me." "I'm doing it for her." "Your marrons glacés arrived." "Would you like to take them?" "No, not now, I'll pick them up later." "As you wish." "When are you going back?" "In a month, at the latest." "You want me to tell you something?" "Yes." "If you'd loved me, you wouldn't have brought me here." "I'didn't bring you." "You insisted on coming." " You thought you were dying." " But I'm still alive!" "This is the limit!" "You're so unfair." "Perhaps." "Don Lope would never have brought me to another man's house." "I'can't believe this." "You've changed." "Obviously!" "You think I'can be the same with this?" "Forgive me if I'was harsh with you." "You should leave me alone." "Go away." "I'sincerely hope your exhibition is a success." "I'have a lot to do." "I'll come back tomorrow." "As you wish." "Until tomorrow." "You should wear it all the time, to get used to it." "It hurts me." " ls he leaving?" " Tomorrow." " When will he be back?" " I'don't know." "Perhaps never." " Here, I'know you like them." " Marrons glacés?" "Thank you." "You get lovelier as the days pass." " Don't make fun of me." " You know I'couldn't." "You think your lameness is an obstacle but you're more attractive now for a lot of people." "I'remember a woman in Paris when I'was young." "She walked on the boulevards with her crutches." "There were always several men following her." "It takes all kinds." "Your bath is ready, miss." " Shall I'give you a rubdown first?" " Rubdowns?" "A massage, woman!" "Would you like a hot drink before we go back home?" "No, I'don't want to talk." "Ma'am, Don Lope..." "You're as vigorous as ever, the cold doesn't affect you." "I'won't ask you, ma'am, because you couldn't look better." "You're very kind." "Say thank you, Lope." " Thank you, captain." " We would like to pay you a visit to thank you for your donation to our orphans' fund." "But I'll take this happy opportunity to express my gratitude personally." "We must help others." "We were doing our duty, sir." "There are many rich people, but unfortunately that kind of donation is very rare." " Goodbye Don Lope, ma'am." " My respects, captain." "Let's go." "If the olive grove were cared for, it would be the best here." "Don't change the subject, dear sir." "I've told you everything I'had to say." "In your case, the priest's mission has ended." " What you need is..." " Don't talk to me about doctors." "I'need something else." "I've told you lots of times, get married." "How can I'marry him if I'can't stand the sight of him?" "You have to overcome that unhealthy passion." "When he was really doing you harm, you accepted it without a word ." "And now, when he's behaving so well with you..." "What more can you ask for?" "The better he is, the less I'love him." " But that's irrational!" " Yes, I'know that perfectly well." "Be careful." "There's something diabolical about that bitterness." "Of course, you're young and he's..." "But as in your case, the aim of marriage is not procreation, but simply to sanctify a sinful situation..." "Well, you know what I'mean." "Ask him to marry you and you'll see how he agrees." "Don't you see that he's changed?" "With old age, things become easier, rough edges are smoothed, you think differently." "He doesn't stop you going to church now, he even goes with you." "Get married, dear." "If you were ever fond of him, you must still feel something." "Don Ambrosio, if you've finished, I'can give you a lift." "I'd appreciate that." "I'm going to buy some fruit trees." "I'm taking the gardener." " Do you want anything?" " Nothing." "Well, let's go." "In the name of Our Lord, Jesus Christ, go in peace." "May He always be with you." "Congratulations, Tristana." "Likewise, Don Lope." "Lope, my dear..." " Good night." " Where are you going?" "To bed." "On a night like this, you're leaving me on my own?" "Really!" "It's incredible that you still have those illusions at your age." "Good night, sir." "1 0 plus 5, 1 5." "Plus 3, 1 8." "Plus 3, 21 ." "Plus 4, 25." "Wafers!" " How is your health, Tristana?" " And your mother's?" " Excellent." " So is mine, thank you ." "Goodbye." "Let's go." "The brazier is an ideal temperature." "It's cold outside!" "My ears were frozen when I'arrived." "As I'was saying," "I'rarely go to the discussions at the cafe." "There are only two of us of my age." "You'll bury them all." "You can still give us trouble." "Don't you believe it." "I'have lots of aches and pains." "And this pump isn't..." "And there's the fistula." "You're just worrying, Lope." "You're spoiled, that's the problem." "Excuse me a moment." "I'forgot my pills." "He's finished..." "My memory's getting worse." "I'always forget..." "The pill." "Pass me the milk, please." "Thank you." "What an aroma!" "With this exquisite product how can we not pity those who settle for tea?" "I'agree entirely." "Saturna is a great cook." "It's so creamy and thick!" "Just right." "We get nothing like this at home." "I'admit it, if Don Lope wasn't so kind as to invite me..." "A little more sugar, please." "Thank you." "If you can't enjoy it as much at home, it's because you don't want to." "He's talking about a little income that my parents left me." "A little income?" "I'd happily settle for half." "So, Don Candido, are your emoluments not enough?" "We earn less than a laborer." "And I'm maintaining a widowed sister and her three children." "That's enough, Don Lope will think we come here for an ulterior motive." "Our host knows it's not my custom to ask for myself." "I'vouch for that." " Another cup?" " Just half full." "After all, life isn't as dark as many believe." "It's snowing heavily." "But we're warm in here." "Oh, my!" "Tristana!" "What is it?" "Do you feel ill?" "ls it indigestion?" "You want some herb tea?" "No, Tristana, this is more serious." "I've a pain here that's killing me." "Call the doctor!" "Do you really feel that bad?" "Call the doctor!" "Get me 240." "It's me." "Dr. Miquis?" "Listen, he's in great pain." "Very well." "Come as soon as you can." "Lope..." "Dr. Miquis is on his way." "Don't you hear me, Lope?" "Don't you hear me?" "Subtitling:" "LVT" " New York"

"The Christmas tree seems to inspire a love-hate relationship." "All that time is spent selecting it and decorating it and then a week after, it's just thrown somewhere." "You see it by the side of the road." "It looks like a mob hit." "The car slows down, the door opens, and this tree just rolls out." "People snap out of that Christmas spirit like it was a drunken stupor." "They just wake up one morning and go:" ""Oh, my God, there's a tree inside the house." "Just throw it anywhere."" "Ready to go, Lois?" "Boy, you sure like to say my name, don't you?" "Excuse me, Lois." "Stand back, Lois." "Jimmy's in trouble, Lois." "Oh, Mr. Meyer, this is my friend Jerry..." " Jerry Seinfeld." " Duncan Meyer." " You two know each other?" " Yeah." "We went to high school together, didn't we, Jerry?" " Yeah, yeah." " Gee, I hope you're not leaving now." "We still have a lot of work left to do." "Would you be able to come all the way downtown again in rush hour and pick me up?" "Why, I'd have to be Superman to do that, Lois." "No." "No, this is all wrong." " Where's the chicken cashew?" " You no order chicken cashew." "No, I didn't order any of this." "I'm not paying for this." "Fine, Benes." "We're putting you on our list." " What list?" " The do-not-deliver list." "Merry Christmas to you." " Well, I guess we'll just go out." " Yeah." "What are you doing with the Daily Worker?" "I figure Ned must have left it here." "Your boyfriend reads the Daily Worker?" "What is he, a Communist?" "He reads everything." "You know, Ned's very well-read." "Maybe he's just very, well, Red." "A Communist?" "Don't you think he probably would have told me?" "Well, does he wear bland, drab, olive-colored clothing?" "Yes." "Yes, he does dress a little drab." "He's a Communist." "Hey, look at this." ""Exciting, uninhibited woman seeks forward-thinking comrade." "Appearance not important."" "Appearance not important?" "This is unbelievable." "Finally, this an ideology I can embrace." " Hey." " Hey." " Where's Lois?" " She couldn't make it." "I can't believe you're going out with a woman named Lois." "I know." "Finally." "But, George, guess who her boss is?" " Duncan Meyer." " Duncan Meyer?" " Who's he?" " Elaine only one person knows what I'm about to tell you and that's George." "In the ninth grade they had us all line up in the schoolyard for this race to see who would represent the school in this track meet." "I was the last one on the end, George was next to me and Mr. Bevilaqua..." " What's that?" " Mr. Bevilaqua, the gym teacher." " Oh, of course." " He was down at the other end." "So he yells out, "Ready." "On your mark." "Get set..."" "And I was so keyed up, I just took off." "By the time he said, "Go," I was ten yards ahead." " No." " I looked up." "I couldn't believe it." "By the time the race was over, I had won." "I was shocked." " Nobody had noticed the head start." " Really?" "Yes." "And I had won by so much a myth began to grow about my speed." "Only Duncan suspected something was amiss." "He's hated me ever since." "And now he's back." "Well, what happened when you raced him again?" "I never did." "In four years of high school, I would never race anyone not even to the end of a block or to catch a bus." "And so the legend grew." "Everyone wanted me to race." "They begged me." "The track coach called my parents, pleading, telling them it was a sin for me to waste my God-given talent." "But I answered him in the same way I answered everyone." "I choose not to run." "So now Duncan is back?" "He's back." "As I knew he would be someday." "Man, that's some tart cider." " Hi." " Hi." " Sorry I missed the Chinese food." " Oh, so am I." "How's Duncan?" "He's okay." "He say anything?" "About what?" "Oh, nothing in particular." " Why did you cheat in that race?" " I did not cheat." "He said that you got a head start." "Oh, he's just jealous because he came in second." " Really?" " Yeah." "So you were the fastest kid in school." "Faster than a speeding bullet, Lois." "So how was work?" "Another day, another dollar?" " I guess." " Yeah, well, nothing wrong with that." "Gotta make those big bucks." "Money, money, money." "Are you a Communist?" "Yes, as a matter of fact, I am." "A commie." "Must be a bummer for you guys what with the fall of the Soviet empire and everything." "Well, yeah." "Well, we still got China, Cuba." "Yeah, but come on." " I know." "It's not the same." " Well, you had a good run." "I mean, what was it?" "Seventy-five, 80 years wreaking havoc making everybody nervous." "Yeah, we had a good run." "Well, so enjoy yourself." "So you lied to her?" "I couldn't tell her the truth." "I don't know what's gonna happen between us." "If we have a bad breakup, she'll go to Duncan." "I want him to go to his grave never being certain that I got that head start." "Well, I'm dating a Communist." " A Communist?" "That's something." " Yeah, that's pretty cool, isn't it?" "Hey, I called one of those girls from the personal ads in the Daily Worker." " The Daily Worker has personals?" " Yeah." "And they say that appearance is not important." "Yours or hers?" "Merry Christmas, everyone." " Merry Christmas." " Well, look at you." " You got the job." " You're looking at the new Santa at Coleman's Department Store." " All right." "Way to go." " Congratulations." "Yeah." "Feel that, isn't it great?" "Look, it's Mickey." "Come on." "Get your beard on." "We're gonna be late." "On Prancer." "On Dasher." "On Donna." "It's not Donna." "It's Donner." " It's Donna." " Right." "On Prancer." "On Dancer." "On Ethel." "On Harriet." "Hello." "Oh, hi, Lois." "He wants to get together?" "What for?" "I don't know about that." "I'll have to think about it." " I'll let you know." "Okay." "Bye." " What's up?" "Duncan wants to get together with me and her." "He's gonna try to get me to admit I got a head start." "I don't think she believes me." "He wants to meet you?" "I'll tell you what." "I'll show up." "He doesn't know we're friends." "I'll pretend I haven't seen you since school." "I'll back up the story." " That's not bad." " Not bad?" "It's gorgeous." "Well, come on, little princess, tell Santa what you want." " Don't be shy." " She doesn't speak English." "Oh, Santa speaks the language of all children." "Hey, Mickey, when do we get a break?" "My lap is killing me." " There is no break." " This is like a sweatshop." " Kramer." " Hey, hey, hey." "There's a Natalie on line two." " Natalie?" " From the Daily Worker." "Thank you." "Hello." "Yes, Natalie." "Well, yes, this is a business office, but I'm not a businessman per se." "I'm here working for the people." "Yes, I'm causing dissent stirring the pot, getting people to question the whole rotten system." " Elaine." " Arlene." " Hi." " Hello." " Doing a little Christmas shopping?" " Yeah, yeah." "Oh, this is Ned." "He's a Communist." " Oh, really?" " Yeah." "Big Communist." "Big, big Communist." " It was awfully nice to see you." " Yeah, see you later." " Okey-dokey." "Bye-bye." " Bye-bye." "Listen, as long as we're here what do you say we do a little shirt-shopping?" "Out of the question." " Kramer." " Oh, hi." "Hi." "Hi, Mickey." "How are you?" " This is Ned." " Oh, hey." "How are you doing there, buddy?" "Hey, you guys stay here, okay?" "I'll be right back." "Right back." "Eight hours of jingle-belling and ho-ho-hoing." "Boy, I am hoed out." " Anyone who works here is a sap." " Hey, watch it, pal." "Whoa, whoa, easy." "Come on, come on." "What's the matter with you?" "The Santas at Bloomfields are making double what you are." " Double?" " I bet the glue from that beard itches." "You've got that straight." "So when you get a rash all over your face you think Coleman's will be there with a medical plan?" "Look, you take that commie crap out to the street." "I've got literature in my car that will change your whole way of thinking." " Talk to me." " Don't listen to him." "You've got a good job here." "There's just no way you could've beaten me by that much." "I had already beaten you in junior high school three times." "I didn't hit puberty till the ninth grade." "That's what gave me my speed." "Besides, if I got a head start, why didn't Mr. Bevilaqua stop the race?" " That's what I've always wondered." " Well..." "Oh, my God." "No." "Oh, my God." "Jerry." "I'm sorry." "George." " George Costanza." " Oh, George Costanza." " Kennedy High." " Yes, yes, yes." " This is unbelievable." " Hi, George." "Oh, wait a minute." "Wait a minute." "Don't tell me." "Don't tell me." "It starts with a..." "Duncan." "That's right." "Wow, this is something." "I haven't seen you guys in, what, 20 years?" " This is Lois." " Hi, there." "What have you been doing with yourself?" "Well, I'm a comedian." "Well, I really wouldn't know about that." "I don't watch much TV." "I like to read." "What do you do?" "A lot of that did-you-ever-notice stuff?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Yeah." "It strikes me a lot of guys are doing that kind." "Yeah, yeah." "Well, you really went bald there, didn't you?" " Yeah, yeah." " You used to really have a thick, full head of hair." " Yeah, yeah." "Poof." "Yeah, well, I guess I started losing it when I was about 28 right around the time I made my first million." "Yeah." "You know, it's true what they say." " The first million is the hardest one." " Yeah, yeah." " What do you do?" " I'm an architect." "Have you designed any buildings in New York?" "Have you seen the new addition to the Guggenheim?" " You did that?" " Yep, yep." "Really didn't take very long either." "Well, you've really built yourself up into something." "I had a dream, Jerry." "You know, one can't help but wonder what brings you into a crummy little coffee shop like this." "Well, I like to stay in touch with the people." "You got a hole in your sneaker there." "What is that, canvas?" "Yeah, my driver is waiting so I really should get running." "Good to see you guys again." "George, George, hang on a second because we haven't seen you in so long." "I thought we might reminisce." "Duncan and I were just talking about the day of the big race." "Oh, the big race." "Yes, yes." " You were there?" " Oh, sure, sure." "I certainly was." "Yeah, I remember that day." "Well, I'll never forget it because that was the day that I lost my virginity to Miss Stafford the voluptuous homeroom teacher." " Miss Stafford?" "Yes, yes." "You know, I was in detention and she came up behind me while I was erasing the board." " George." " But I digress." "Let me see." "I remember you were standing at one end of the line." "I was right next to you and I remember we were even for the first five yards and then..." "You were gone." " Did I get a head start?" " Head start?" "Oh, no." "Absolutely not." "No." "You satisfied?" "So you see?" "No." "I'm still not convinced, and I never will be." "Why don't the two of you just race again?" " That's a good idea." " No, no, no." "Another race." "Out of the question." "You've been saying that for 20 years." "You know you can't beat me." "You couldn't beat me then, and you can't beat me now." "Race him, Jerry." "Race him." "All right." "I'll do it." "The race is on." " You're gonna race him?" " Yeah." "And he's calling all these people from high school to come and watch." "I knew this day would come." "I can't." "I can't go through with it." "I'm calling it off." "I can't let the legend die." "It's like a kid finding out there's no Santa Claus." "Each according to his ability, to each according to his means." "What does that mean?" "Well, if you got means and ability, that's a pretty good combination." "So what if I wanna open a delicatessen?" "There are no delicatessens under Communists." "Whoa, why not?" "Well, because the meats are divided into a class system." "You've got pastrami and corned beef in one and salami and bologna in another." "Not right." "So you can't get corned beef?" "Well, you know, if you're in the politburo, maybe." "Yeah, this is George Costanza." "Any messages for me?" "Why does Mr. Steinbrenner wanna see me in his office?" "Communist?" "I'm not a Communist." "All right." "All right." "I'll be there." "My secretary told Mr. Steinbrenner I'm a Communist." "Now he wants to see me." "You'll just explain to him that you're not a Communist." "You just called the woman for a date." "Hello." "Oh, hi, Duncan." "No." "Four o'clock tomorrow that is not going to work." "Why?" "I'll tell you why." "Because I choose not to run." "I'm sorry, Elaine." "This shirt's too fancy." "Just because you're a Communist, you can't wear anything nice?" " You look like Trotsky." " Good." "Fine." "You wanna be a Communist?" "Be a Communist." "Can't you at least look like a successful Communist?" "All right." "I'll try it on." " I'm gonna order Chinese food." " You're ordering from Hop Sing's?" "Does it have to be Hop Sing's?" "I kind of had a fight with them." "Elaine, when my father was blacklisted he couldn't work for years." "He and his friends used to sit in Hop Sing's every day figuring out how to survive." " Your father was blacklisted?" " Yes, he was." "And you know why?" "Because he was betrayed by people he trusted." " They named names." " Okay." "Okay." "Yeah, hi." "I'd like a delivery, please to 16 West 75th Street." "Apartment 2G." "I know that address." "You're Benes, right?" "You're on our list." "No more deliveries!" "No, no." "She doesn't live here anymore." "This is someone else." "Oh, yeah?" "What's the name?" "Why do you need a name?" "You already have the address." "We need a name." "Give us a name." "Okay, okay." "Ned Isaacoff." "I want a racing car set." "A racing car set?" "Listen." "You don't want that." "Those are assembled in Taiwan by kids like you." "And these Coleman pigs, they sell it for triple the cost." " But I want a racing car set." " No." "Don't you see, kid?" "You're being bamboozled." "These capitalist fat cats are inflating the profit margin and reducing your total number of toys." " Hey, this guy is a commie!" " Hey, kid, quiet." "Where did a nice little boy like you learn such a bad word like that?" "Commie, commie, traitor to our country." "Santa is not a commie." "He just forgot how his good friend stuck his neck out for him to get him a good job like this, didn't he, Santa?" "Is there a problem here?" "This guy's a commie, and he's spreading propaganda." "Oh, yeah?" "Well, that's enough, pinko." "You're through." "The both of you." " I got two kids in college." " Oh, you can't fire me." "I'm Santa." "Not anymore." "Get your skinny ass out of here!" "Hi, how are you?" "Fine." "What's the matter?" "I just spoke to Duncan." "He said if you don't race, he's going to fire me." "What?" "He can't do that." "Yes, he can." "He controls the means of production." "What are you gonna do, Jerry?" "Don't worry, Lois." "I'll think of something." "I knew it was you." "You tried to trick Hop Sing." "You're on our list." "Elaine Benes." "And now you're on our list." "Ned Isaacoff." "You got me blacklisted at Hop Sing's?" "She named name." "You wanted to see me, Mr. Steinbrenner?" "Yes, George, I did." "Come in, come in." "George, the word around the office is that you're a Communist." "A Communist?" "I am a Yankee, sir, first and foremost." "A Communist pipeline into the vast reservoir of Cuban baseball talent could be the greatest thing ever to happen to this organization." " Sir?" " You could be invaluable to this franchise." "There's a southpaw nobody's been able to get a look at." "Something-Rodriguez." "I don't really know his name." "Get yourself to Havana right away." "Yes, sir." "Yes, sir." " Do my best." " Good." "Merry Christmas, George." "Bring me back some cigars in the cedar boxes." "The ones with the fancy rings." "Love those rings." "They distract you while you're smoking." "The red and yellow are nice." "Looks good against the brown of the cigar." "I like the maduro wrapper." "The darker, the better." "That's what I say." "The claro's good too." "That's more of a pale brown." "Almost like a milky coffee." "I find the ring size very confusing." "They have it in centimeters, which I don't understand." " That was great." "Nice job, Santa." " Yeah." "I knew that stuff was gonna get us in trouble." "Well, I didn't realize it was such a sensitive issue." "Communism." "You didn't realize Communism was a sensitive issue?" "What do you think's been going on in the world for the past 50 years?" " Wake up and smell the coffee." " I guess I screwed up!" "Oh, you sure did." "Big time." "How do you feel?" "I need a miracle." "Now you're gonna see what kind of a liar you're mixed up with." "Well, if he beats you, I want a big raise." "If he beats me, I'll not only give you a raise I'll send you to Hawaii for two weeks." "I parked in front." "As soon as this race is over, we gotta go to the airport." "Yeah." "I'll be there." "You ready, boys?" " Yeah, Mr. Bevilaqua." " This is the way it's gonna work." "You take your marks." "I say, "Ready, on your mark, get set" and then fire." "You got it?" " Yes, Mr. Bevilaqua." " Yes, Mr. Bevilaqua." " Come on, Jerry." " Come on, Jerry." "Ready." "On your mark." "Jerry," "So will you come to Hawaii with me, Jerry?" "Maybe I will, Lois." "Maybe I will." "You wanted to see me, el presidente?" "Come here." "I understand you are very interested in one of our players." "Ordinarily, I would not grant such a request." "But I have heard you are, how you say, communista simpatico." "Well, good." "Then you can have your pick." "They will play for your Yankees." "And I would be honored if you would be my guest for dinner tonight at the Presidential Palace." "There will be girls there." "And I hear some pretty good food." "Of course, the problem with parties is you invariably have to eat standing up, which I don't care for." "But on the other hand, I don't like to balance a plate on my lap either." "Once when I was at a party, I put my plate on someone's piano." "If I had not been a dictator I would not have been able to get away with that one."

"One thing that never changes here is the stupid idea that surgeons are cool and medical residents are geeks." "Oh, Rudy." " Lose the grapefruit goggles." " It squirts in my eyes." "That's a risk you take with that particular piece of fruit." "You guys, come on, what do you say we dial down the whole power-nerd thing a little bit, OK?" "Are you starting your surgical elective tomorrow?" "Is that tomorrow?" "Whatever." "I don't really give a crap." "Take a picture!" "Take a picture!" "And you better smile this time." "You guys look so cute." "Carla, do you think you could cut these for me?" "I've been working out so much, these things are choking off my pythons." " You know?" " Yeah, I wouldn't do that." "At the end of the week, you gotta return these bad boys to Janine." "Janine's built like a bear." "She curled me once." "Entering the hospital as a surgeon has a whole different feel to it." "Dude." "You OK?" "You're acting weirder than the time we saw Pat Benatar at Starbucks." "How amazing was that morning?" "Listen, do me a favour." "Don't try to overdo it with these guys, all right?" "Just be you." "OK?" "Be yourself." "You know how I do." "What's up, fellas?" "I know, I'm usually medical." "I just want you guys to know I consider you all my peepies." "They know you mean peeps." "Just change the subject." " Somebody's been working out." " What?" "Help me." " Dr Cox." " Work." "I hate you." "You suck." "I've been trying harder lately." "Barbie, talking to the computer, but nice self-esteem." "Hey, cowboy." "How about you back off the little lady and we'll all agree you're scary." "Listen there, I know that your pink scrubs are balled up at the base of Barbie's bed three nights a week, and congrats on that, but if you're going to have a showdown with everyone who hassles her," "then, gosh, you two aren't gonna have any time for that sweet Aryan sex that you love so much." " Hit the bricks, toe-heads." " Come on, let's go." "Why have we never fixed or replaced this monstrosity?" "You know the deal." "If it barely works, it won't get replaced." "I guess that explains why your ass is still on the payroll, huh?" "Somebody stop me!" " Morning, sport." " Morning, captain." "Am I the first they've done this to?" "No, man." "They did this to Frank Fracherman." " Who's Frank Fracherman?" " You're the first one." " Help me." " Yeah." "All right, don't sweat it, OK?" "Stay on your toes." "Sorry, girls, dropped my computer." "Remember, when surgical residents sense insecurity, they attack." " I'll watch out for that." " Dude, your face, your face." " Man!" " Yeah, let's lose the tail too." "How'd they get that on there, dawg?" "Buddy, I've got your back." "But lay low for awhile." " No problem." " All right, people." "How long till we get this thing started?" "Probably not for a few minutes." "Should I file my Bell Biv DeVoe CD under B for Bell Biv or under D for DeVoe?" "I don't know why you let Dr Cox push you around like that." "Do you notice that you're always telling me what to do?" "I mean, in a good way." "Then how come I'm growing my bangs out and wearing a thong?" "You look better without the bangs." "And the thong, well, that's not up to me, that's the law, Missy." "Not now." "You know I don't like kissing while I'm alphabetizing." "Just so you know, I'm not folding my clothes before we do it tonight." "Yes, you are." "Hey, Elliot, I just want to tell you that the last few weeks have been really amazing." "Thanks." "I love U2." "What did you just say?" "I said, I love U2." "Dr Kelso, I was able to locate the discharge form you wanted." "She's a beauty, isn't she, Ted?" "My pride and joy." "I just had her varnished, so don't touch." "Here, hand it over." " Ted, you're a simpleton." " That's funny." "Cos I thought I was rubber and you were glue." "Idiot." " Principal Bob, you called?" " Can you explain this?" "It appears to be a wiring problem." "Either way, second floor desperately needs a new computer." "Jackass." "I was talking about him, you buffoon." "Removing the old heart." " All right, JD, get in there." " Turk's always looking out for me." "I told you I'd hook you up." "Oh, my God." "Here it's my first day in surgery and I'm holding a human heart." "We were done with that one, right, guys?" " What you got there?" " Circular saw." "Just bought it." "Four horsepower, 3,500 rpms, titanium finger guard." "Why would you need a saw?" " Why would a hen need a banjo?" " Why does a hen need a banjo?" "Why buy a saw if I had no stuff to cut?" " You wouldn't." "That'd be crazy." " Exactly." "You need some help with that?" "No, thank you, I'm fine." "Dammit." "No, that'd be crazy." "I was talking about U2 the band." "You know what?" "It's fine." "He probably thinks I was saying it the way you would say "I love eggs."" "I'm sure there is not going to be a problem." "We have a telegram from Nurse Paul Flowers." "That name is funny." "This is my band." "Oh, my God, Ted, everybody knows." "TV themes." "That's old news, doll face, we do commercial jingles now." "The best part of waking up Is Elliot in your cup" "In your cup..." "That's it?" "By Mennen" "It felt weird not going to my normal table." "Especially on Palm Pilot Synchronization Day." "And... now." "But I was in surgery now." "Still, even though Turk was trying to help," "I felt like such an outsider." "I can't believe my girlfriend's dragging me to the ballet." "Your girlfriend?" "Or your boyfriend?" "What's up?" "Turk did ballet." "I just used it to help with my agility for sports, that's all." "You know." "I never wore the clothes or anything like that." "Actually..." "Dude, close the door, close the door!" "I'll get you." "Who wants some more?" "You got..." "OK." "Here's some." "I have no words." "How about handsome?" "Or glorious?" "And this abomination is the reason we can't afford a new computer?" "Well, that... and the medical boondoggle I have to go to in Cleveland." "And by medical boondoggle, I mean golf weekend, and by Cleveland, I mean Hawaii." "Do you have any idea what people around here think of you?" "I go to bed some nights wondering." "And you know what happens to me, Perry?" "I fall asleep." "And I mean like a log, brother." "Anyway, I have to go catch my bus to the airport." "And by bus, I mean helicopter." "I'll be right back." "Mr Dunaway somehow managed to wet both his and Mr Spiller's bed." "You're slouching." "You never explained that U2 thing, did you?" "I've been thinking." "Maybe it's not such a bad thing." "Things are going well." "Maybe it was fate." "I could have looked at my Bell Biv DeVoe CD and said, "I love Bell Biv DeVoe."" "Which I do, by the way." "And I'm not ashamed of it." "I think that if you guys are meant to get to this point, it'll happen naturally." "You're right." ""I love U2." Dammit." "Why do I say every thing that comes into my head?" "I wish you wouldn't stand close to me after your hummus break." "See?" "I didn't need to say that." "I'm gonna tell him." " Love you." " Love you more." "You know what?" "Brush your teeth, then judge me." "I gotta say, it was nice to feel accepted." "Remind me to burn that CD for you." "All right, player." "Weight room later?" "I might be able to get you two tickets." " To what?" " To the gun show, dawg." "Sometimes you can't help but get caught up in the moment." "When that happens, you never know what you're going to do." "What's that all about?" "I'm afraid Dr Kelso has passed away." "Or what you're gonna say to someone." "I can't wait for my parents to meet you." "Me neither." "But if things are going well, you should just ride the wave." "Hey, T-Dog, who are we slicing and dicing today?" "Well, J-Dog, I don't know who you're slicing and dicing." "I assigned you to another surgeon." "What?" "Why?" "You deserve Ted's band today" "So get up and get away..." "Ted, you guys suck." "So what if Turk switched me to another surgeon?" "I can't worry about that now." "I'm here to learn." "Are you even paying attention?" "I'm sorry." "Is it time to excise the tumour?" "No, it is time to realise that we're operating on a naked chick." "We will high-five later." "And then I realised why Turk was so pissed." "He was the geek now." "You're gonna get in so much trouble for this." "It's a joke." "No one's going to believe Kelso actually died." "I don't know if I should be alone tonight." "He's with Jesus now." "Tough break, big guy." "Turk, Turk." "Wait, wait, wait." "Look, I can totally get you back in with all the surgery boys." "Can you?" "Really?" "Totally?" "I'll just talk to them." "Schmitty, Schultzy," "Trigger, Fig Sack, Small Pete, Little Pete, Tiny Pete," "The Jackal, Aardvark and Steve." "Dude, who the hell are you talking about?" "We all went out last night." "I made up some new nicknames for all the fellas." "By the way, you're Slappy Bag." "You've lost it." " Come on, Slappy Bag." " Don't call me Slappy Bag." " I told you you had nothing to saw." " Really?" "Man, give it back." "All right." "Just tell me why you're hitting yourself." "Why are you doing that?" "Ever feel like we're thinking the same thing?" "No." "Hey, slow down on that Brie." "You know what cheese does to you." "Yet another good tip." "You know, I've been thinking a lot about us lately." " Me too." " God, you drive me crazy." "You drive me crazy." "I just lay awake at night thinking about how unbelievably lucky I am to have you in my life." "Sometimes you're so controlling, it makes me want to strangle you." "My nose!" "Elliot, are you trying to break up with me?" "Sorry, cheese." "Coming through." "Holy cow." "You just clean out a guy's office the second he goes deady-bye?" " We can come back later." " No." "The quicker these memories are removed, the sooner all of us can get on with our lives." "There's no way this desk is fitting through that door." " I got it." " Who are you?" "Just a man with a saw." "Ten." "Careful with that." " I think I can manage." " That's a great set, Arnold." "You got string hanging from your sleeve there." "I'm sorry, that's your arm."

"In the meantime, this blank cheque ought to cover the damage." "A joke?" "Think it's funny they already gave away my parking spot?" "Or that one of the surgeons paid his dwarf cousin, Lance," "$200 to show up at rounds and sing Ding-Dong, Kelso's Dead?" " And there it is." " There what is?" "This whole l-don't-care-what- people-think-about-me act." "It's pretty convincing." "But methinks there's a sad little cartoon boy living inside the hairy beast." "He's sad because, at the end of the day, he realises the only thing people think is what an evil son-of-a-bitch he really is." "See you later, Bobigator." "If this cheque bounces, I'm coming for you." "How you doing, Ted?" "OK, here's what you do." "Say that even though our relationship is ending, you don't have any regrets." "My God, are you actually telling me how to break up with you?" "You're right." "Go ahead." "If you could just start me off, that'd be super." "Just tell me we had a lot of fun together." "We did." " Mostly you were really happy." " I was." "Say that you wished you were mature enough to talk to me about what was bothering you, because even though I can be controlling sometimes," "I really would have worked on it for someone as special as you." "You know what's funny?" "When I said I love you, it was an accident and I never really loved you at all." "That is an absolute riot." "No, I just mean that I wonder how things would've gone if that had never happened." "Me, too." "Hi, can I buy you a drink?" "No, I'm good." "Thank you." "You see that, that right there?"

"But sometimes change doesn't last for long." "By golly, you're so pretty, I may not even use you." "And other times it just makes you miss what you had." "A little." "As for me, I'm happy just knowing who I am." "Hey, JD, do you have any nasal spray?" "No problem, Dougster." "For I am John Dorian." "King of the Nerds." "Hey, JD, you OK?" "I'm fine."

"I'm not telling you to do this." "I'm telling you not to." "Could be dangerous." "Will you help me or not?" "Why the sudden urge to get this right?" "My girlfriend read it." "Agreed with you." "Right." "You're doin' this for pussy." " Well I wouldn't put it that way." " For Pussy." "What happened to you?" "Don't talk to the system." "What the hell does that mean?" "Make up somethin' ."

"It's too late.It's done." "You're in for a real treat,son." "I even amazed myself with this bolognese." "I'm amazed at how calm you're acting." "Your 15-year-old daughter's moved in" "With her crazy model friend." "And with the model's mother,whom i met today for lunch." "Granted,Agnes's mother is more Courtney Love than June Cleaver," "But she's a committed parent," "And she's gone through similar phases with Agnes." "She promises to call every day,so Jenny's safe." "You're gonna act like you're cool with it" "So she chooses to come home instead of being forced." "Well,that's,that's risky,but i like it" "I hope it works." "Yeah." "So you ready for the best sauce ever?" "Uh,you know,actually," "I can't stay.I'm gonna meet Shapiro,and I know" "You don't agree with me writing a story" "About Chuck and his mother" "I don't believe in using other people to get what you want." "Well, Shapiro loved the story." "He's writing me the recommendation for Yale." "Congratulations." "I'm happy for ya." "I'm happy for you and your sister both." "Well,I'm glad you're a musician" "And not an actor,dad,cause our family would have starved." "Save me some cold pasta?" "I'll leave it on the stove for you." "All right."

"Oh,that's so romantic." "One thing my mom has is good taste in men." "Maybe a dashing stepdad is just what i need." "Speaking of good taste in men,how's the sexy artist,Serena?" "Oh,uh,Aaron's amazing." "He's been sending me these maps to the most beautiful places." "The other day i ended up in a private room in the cloisters Overlooking the gardens."

"What's the name Of the label?" "Vixen dresses,inc." "J.Humphrey designs.We haven't fully decided yet," "Clearly, but, uh,It really doesn't matter," "'Cause we're just here to take the work to the next level." "Definitely,which means finding a clear vision for the brand." "Which since fashion is a designer-based industry," "And i'm a designer,that brand would be me." "No,the brand is the concept,which we both came up with." "Agnes,can we just talk about this later.When we're alone,please?" "No,we're gonna talk about this now." "I mean,if mr." "Smith here wants to represent us," "Then he should know who he's dealing with." "Except mr.Smith might get the wrong idea about our professionalism." "Well, then cut the crap" "And start acting professional" "Instead of putting on the Jenny show." "Me?" "Agnes, look at who's acting out yell again" "In another business meeting." "You wanna see acting out?" "And yet another one,bites the dust,Agnes." "What is the matter with you?" "This guy was our last chance." "Okay,he totally overreacted.I mean, we're artists." "We need to work with somebody who's not gonna be freaked out" "Passion?" "You know the heat from the fashion show's" "Not gonna last that long." "Okay,Jenny," "I will find us another business manager tomorrow." "Good, because until we get one,we can't meet with any buyers." "Yes." "Okay?" "Now it's all gonna work out, all right?"

"We were very fond of each other" "But never passionate." "And then i got drafted." "I was sent to vietnam." "And i fell deeply in love with" "A vietnamese girl named kim-ly." "It means "golden lion."" "How feline." "Go on." "Oh, i knew i could never stay married to alice" "If i could feel a passion" "Like that for somebody else." "And i planned to bring kim-ly back to america." "But first, i had to go back" "By myself and..." "End my marriage." "While i was breaking the news to alice" "Kim-ly was killed" "In a surprise attack on her village." "She died?" "Yeah." "So i was devastated." "But i always knew in my heart" "That what i'd felt for kim-ly was true love." "And i think i was too much of a romantic" "To stay forever In a loveless marriage." "So ultimately, uh, alice and i" "Parted as good friends." "I'd always hoped i could feel something like that again," "And now i have with your mother." "So..." "Yeah." "My prayers have been answered." "Aaron." "Hey, it's me." "Oh, HEY, WHAT'S UP?" "Well, it's--it's such a beautiful day," "I was thinking I could take you" "To one of my favorite spots for a change."

"Cyrus told me that you had lunch together," "And he was very touched." "Of course,he doesn't know yet" "That you have an agenda for absolutely everything." "I don't know what you're talking about." "Blair..." "You're not a child anymore." "But you can't help it,can you?" "You can't stop meddling and scheming." "Let me guess" "You played nice" "So that you could dig up some dirt on cyrus." "But it didn't work,did it?" "Because he is" "The most upstanding man i have ever met." "Sorry, mom." "It turns out that cyrus is just like daddy." "He cheated on his ex-wife." "He had an affair." "He fell in love with her." "I'm sorry." "It's true." "You can ask him yourself." "This is Scott smith's office" "Calling for jenny humphrey." "Well, this is agnes andrews." "Oh, i'm sorry."

"Hazel, i can hear your desperation from the other room." "Serena, what's wrong?" "I think you were right." "The whole muse thing kinda backfired." "Well,I would say i told you so," "But since i'm now 18,I'll refrain." "What happened?" "Well, we had this amazing night." "I modeled for him and he did this incredible installation." "He totally loves you." "But then another girl showed up at the studio" "And she modeled for him" "And they've been hanging out all day." "So pablo's already moved on?" " That was faster than i thought" " Blair." "It's okay, s." "It's actually a good thing." "This way, you can get out before you're in too far." "Oh, hey.-Oh, you just missed your dad."

"You know, when i let you in,I had no idea" "You'd be such a little thief" "Stealing my contact list" "And our whole business." "I wasn't stealing, agnes" "You know, you think you're so talented and unique, don't you?" "No, i don't." "You know, three weeks ago" "You were absolutely nothing."

"Wh" "Oh, my goodness." "You didn't catch the family resemblance?" "No, it's okay." "You know, I think he's quite smitten with you." "Really?" "Uh, I¡¯m not so sure." "Well, he told me that he took you to the cloisters." "He definitely doesn't do that with just anyone." "You know, I¡¯m actually gonna go stop by his studio To see him now but it was really nice meeting you." "Likewise." "Oh, Eleanor." "Did you cheat on your ex-wife?" "Well, did you?" "Is it true?" "Yes, it is." "Get out." "I-I thought he was..." "Different." "I-I have to go lie down." "There are so many hot guys here." "My god." "Look at that guy." "Cyndi Lauper?" "What are you doing here?"

"I wanted a Harry Winston choker for my birthday." "Instead, I got a conscience." "I gotta go." "Sorry to bother you at home, sir." "What was it you wanted to speak to me about?" "Uh, well, um, something kind of strange happened" "While I was at your office." "I-I-I overheard this guy talking about you to an employee." "He said--he said that you were responsible for a fire" "In one of your own buildings." "He had a lot of details." "I figured there must be some kind of explanation," "You know, if it even happened, which, uh, I¡¯m sure it didn't." "And look, I know it's none of my business." "I'm sorry." "But he was so insistent, I figured if he was telling people at work, he--he could Be telling other people, too." "So it's out." "I've had that man's death on my conscience for 20 years." "Wait." "Someone died?" "Dad, don¡¯t say anything else." "He's writing a story for a magazine." "So what's it gonna cost to make this go away?" "I don't want your money." "If you use this against my father, I will destroy you." "Chuck, what happened is bigger than you hating me" "Or me trying to make it as a writer." "I couldn't ignore this if I wanted to." "It will ruin our family." "Don't do it." "Please." "You're still here." "I sent my driver to dinner because I thought" "I'd be at the party ringing in your birthday." "You threw in the towel rather easily." "I expected a harder fight." "I'm smart enough to know that getting into a war" "With Eleanor¡¯s daughter is never gonna result in a victory." "So you retreated with dignity." "Who says I gave up?" "Oh, my god." "You outmaneuvered me." "You deliberately let me win, counting on the fact" "That Cyndi Lauper would prey on my emotions." "I'm a lawyer." "I do think a few moves ahead." "Some of us can't rely entirely on our looks, you know." "Well done." "Not enough." "Fine." "You're a genius." "You better be good to my mother, or I¡¯ll be coming for you." "Those are fair terms." "Now come upstairs and stand next to me" "While I tell my mom the whole truth about the golden lion." "She'll be furious with me, so I may need an attorney." "Y-you're not what I had in mind." "Well, you're not what I had in mind." "Sir?" "This was left for you with the concierge downstairs."

"You and I just started hanging out, okay?" "Did I miss a talk where we decided to be exclusive?" "No, but" "Look, I don't know how it works in high school," "But I like to date more than one person at once." "You're free to see other people, too."

"If i sign this paper, It means that everything" "You've done up to now" "This lying,Cheating, manipulation--It's all okay." "And if you don't sign it,Then everything i've done" "Everything--Is all for nothing." "I won't put my name On a piece of paper" "Condoning Who you've become." "Fine." "Then i'll just have To find another way." "What other way?" "You gonna Sleep on agnes' couch" "Till you turn 18?" "If that's what it takes." "Poor little orphan jenny." "Looks like she needs A daddy warbucks." "But daddy warbucks Don't grow on trees" "At least not on a tree That grows in brooklyn." "Mr. Smith?" "Hi." "Yeah, sorry to bother you On a sunday." "Um, is there any way that we can Meet at your office today?" "Can i come in?" "I can't stop you." "I want to apologize, son." "Apologize?" "I never blamed you For your mother's death." "I read that short story That, uh," "Dan humphrey wrote About you and your mother." "I had no idea You felt that way." "It's my fault." "I know i've had trouble Being close to you." "But it's not For the reasons you think." "It's just hard because..." "Every time i look at you," "I see her." "You miss her." "You have no idea." "I've made some Terrible mistakes in my life," "But i don't want To make another." "I want to know my son." "So any, uh, interest in going To that hockey game?" "I'll, uh..." "Clear my calendar." "I spoke to your sister." "My, uh, plan Didn't exactly pan out." "I heard." "She called me." "You've been thinking about That story on bart bass?" "Uh, yeah." "I took your advice And killed it." "You saved that family." "I think it's time You saved ours, dad." "It's so important To you to be right." "That's a trait i inherited." "I'd be the first to say it." "But you--you need to get jenny back," "Even if it means Letting her win." "So..." "What's the urgent question?" "Neither of my parents Will sign the papers." "Um, what else can i do?" "Well, you have one other option, But it's extreme." "You could file a suit To become emancipated.What's that mean?" "You'd be empowered To be your own guardian." "Your legal ties with Your family would be severed." "You mean divorce my parents?" "Okay.What do i need to do?" "Well, i can't believe aaron Is cyrus' son." "Of course, you get the prince, And i get stuck with the toad." "Well, IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE I'm GONNA HAVE" "The fairy tale ending." "I went to have a talk With aaron yesterday.And?" "Instead,He had a talk with me." "I REALLY TRIED TO DEAL WITH THE CASUAL DATING THING..." "BUT i GUESS IT'S JUST NOT FOR ME." "You're totally conventional,Just like i am." "It's not a facade." "I-i believe in freedom,People following their hearts," "Doing what they want." "You know i always wish I'd lived in the '60S." "You believe in long hair, Peasant skirts and sandals," "BUT YOU IN AN OPEN RELATIONSHIP?" "I DON'T THINK SO." "Speaking of relationships," "Well, he's not exactly My cup of tea," "But he makes my mother happy,And..." "HE'S NOT THAT BAD.Well, i'm proud of you." "It's not like i have To see him that often." "He'll come to pick her up For dinner once, twice a week." "Have to go.Bye." "Darling, we have Some wonderful news." "Thanks to you, blair," "We've been up all night Talking about love" "And death And the brevity of life." "And we have decided that He should move in today." "Some surprises hit you over The head like a squash racket." "And others sneak up on you When you're least expecting it." "What are you doing here?" "In the park." "But we broke up last night, Remember?" "Wait, how did--how did we break up if we're not going out?" "Thanks for reminding me." "That feels good." "Serena,I-i really like you." "Even though i grew up On the upper east side," "I don't want the same life that my parents had" "Social obligations And forced conversations," "Saying no to all the things that i wanted to say yes to." "I thought you felt The same way." "And if i was wrong,I-i apologize." "No." "No, you were right." "Uh, wait." "What are you doing?" "Don't you wantto get dressed?" "Nope." "And sometimes The biggest surprises" "Are the ones You spring on yourself." "Come on." "Scampering about in a slip Is one way to shed old skin." "But will embracing free love" "Be as easy as flinging off a pair of fendi flats?" "Looks like someone's Going barefoot in the park." "X.o.x.o., gossip girl."

"Previously on sanctuary..." "[Magnus]:" "The energy nodules in the ceiling, they're doing this." "I sped up time." "[Magnus]:" "And that's what allows you to move around like that?" "[Adam worth]:" "Faster time allows rifts to open up in subspace just like doorways." "Genetic manipulation, hybrid trials, medical testing." "The abnormals that are taken alive will end up being government guinea pigs." "We're looking at the blueprint for the abnormal final solution." "You knew I would never hand over my records, my residents, my friends, to whatever abnormal Guantanamo Bay you're planning." "Your research has been bought and paid for over the years by the people I work for." "You turn me away now, you're out in the cold for good." "There are changes coming that the world is not ready for." "So from now on, we make our own rules." "[Stunners blasting, creature roars]" "Watch out!" "[Snarling]" "Stunners are ineffective!" "Henry?" "Quarter-round tranquilizer, prepped and ready." "I'm on my way." "Sooner is better!" "[Snarling]" "[Dart snipes]" "Be careful." "It'll take a few minutes for the tranquilizer to take full effect." "I'll get the van." "[Vehicle zooming up]" "[Weapons cocking]" "That's far enough." "We'll take it from here." "Who the hell are you?" "Colonel Bosh," "Specified Counter-Insurgency Unit." "Which is...?" "Homeland Security's new abnormal hunting division." "That creature is a fugitive of the Hollow Earth invasion force." "I'm remanding it into custody." "Step back, please." "Dude, we got this under control" "Step back." "I'm not going to ask you again." "[Darts sniping]" "For God's sakes!" "It's got a slow metabolism." "Give the tranquilizer time to work!" "This is barbaric." "I swear, if any harm comes to that creature" "Feel free to take it up with the President." "Did it work?" "I think so." "Coming online now." "[Tracker beeping]" "Yeah, it's good." "The signal's coming in loud and clear." "Great." "Let me know when they've reached their destination." "Our sleepy friend was transported across the border, and then airlifted to Holloman Air Force Base, just outside of Alamogordo." "Try saying that three times fast." "After that..." "[Magnus] The middle of the New Mexico desert." "Interesting." "I'm not getting why." "Oh, Henry." "It's Area 51." "What?" "What about the one on Google maps?" "Decoy, aimed at conspiracy theorists, I'm afraid." "Much like the Pentagon." "Really?" "No." "Right." "Okay, so if that's Area 51..." "Then we may have just stumbled upon the fabled abnormal testing facility." "Cool." "This isn't a good idea." "Oh, come on." "I've infiltrated secret compounds before." "The Cabal, maybe." "This is Area 51." "It's simple recon." "Get information so we can plan our strategy." "If you're caught, you could be charged with espionage." "That never sticks." "[Grumbling doubtfully]" "Oh..." "look." "I appreciate your concern." "But what choice do I have?" "If indeed this S-C-I-U, or whatever they're calling themselves, are experimenting on captured abnormals," "I can't allow that to continue." "Well, at least wait till Will comes back." "From Hollow Earth?" "That could take days." "Look, we need to strike before they discover our tracking beacon." "Henry and I can handle it." "[Grunts]" "I've heard that before." "[Eagle cries distantly]" "Rule number one when securing a high-tech facility?" "Always change your default admin password." "[Door hissing open]" "Well done, Henry." "How long?" "I'm guessing about five minutes until they discover the hack on the security cameras." "We better hurry." "Download the building's specs and-- [door lock beeps open]" "Rule number two in securing a high-tech facility" "Yeah, I got it, thanks." "Yeah." "It's a standard NSA block cipher algorithm." "Should only take a minute or two." "Let's call that an outside estimate." "[Computer ticking and whirring]" "Whoa, jackpot." "Doc, you should come check this out." "Looks like the building has an inner sanctum." "It's a higher security clearance." "What do you bet that's where they keep the abnormals?" "Download this into your tablet, and then let's get out of here." "Sure thing." "[Door bangs open]" "Drop your weapons!" "Hands in the air, now." "Bloody hell." "I'm about to be a father." "How am I supposed to teach my kid the backdoor hacks to Final Fantasy from a penitentiary?" "They won't lock us up." "We know too much." "Really?" "We're more likely to be convicted at a military tribunal and then executed in secret." "Well, that's very comforting, thank you." "But why would they hold us in the facility director's office?" "Well, it's more comfortable than a prison cell." "Why?" "The decor in this place." "Something about it is very familiar." "[Sniffing]" "Like, "I had that lamp in my dorm room" familiar?" "Or, um, "I dreamt I was going to be executed by the federal government" familiar?" "Who keeps a bottle of '95 Chateau Margaux on their desk?" "A little early for happy hour, don't you think?" "♪ Sanctuary 4x05 ♪ Resistance Original Air Date on November 4, 2011" "== sync, corrected by elderman ==" "♪" "You are the director of this facility?" "Now, before you go off on some high and mighty diatribe" "Do you have any idea how many innocent creatures have been dragged here against their will?" "Too late." "May I explain?" "This better be good, dude." "As good as that root kit you stuck on my security system?" "Hmm, spotted that, huh?" "Yeah, coming down the street on a bus filled with neon." "Get on with it." "Helen, I don't expect you to understand, but several months ago," "I was approached by the Department of Homeland Security." "They've asked me to head up a new initiative, and we exist to study Hollow Earth abnormals left behind after the invasion." "SCIU." "Yeah." "Catchy, actually." "Nikola..." "Look, needless to say," "I turned them down flat." "I mean, the last time" "I cooperated with the U.S. government, you may recall, the assistant they gave me turned out to be a Nazi spy." "But dogged little civil servants that they are, they wouldn't take "no" for an answer." "What did they do, offer you a company car?" "Company plane." "Money?" "That's why you're doing this?" "Oh, is that so wrong?" "After the resurrection of my race turned out to be an enormous bust-- pardon the pun" "I realized that I actually like being the only sanguine vampiris left alive." "Now, why shouldn't I receive compensation to enjoy the finer things?" "Yeah, 'cause you were always slumming it before." "After all I've done to help you, all the times I've come to your aid" "I re-vamped you, for goodness' sake-- and this is how you repay me?" "By aligning with my enemies?" "By becoming a shill for a paranoid government hell-bent on exploiting abnormals for God knows what depraved purposes?" "You seem upset." "I demand to see the abnormal quarters immediately." "I'm afraid that's not possible." "Gayle, get Basil and Pierre back in here." "You can't be serious." "Look, I'd love to chat, but I have work to do." "As a gesture of good will," "I'm going to overlook this whole "breaking into a restricted facility" affair." "However, in the future," "I'd appreciate it if you made an appointment." "Doc, I'm sorry." "Did you notice anything unusual about Nikola's behavior?" "Other than the knife in your back with his fingerprints on it?" "He's hiding something." "He needs our help, but he's too stubborn to ask." "I did not get that." "I've known him for over a hundred years." "He only acts this way when he's really rattled." "No, something's going on here, and whatever it is, it's big." "[Gasping in panic]" "It's happening again." "Run." "Run!" "Come on, we can't stay here." "Wait a second, what is happening again?" "We gotta go." "Now!" "[Energy pulsing]" "Stop!" "It's too late." "What the hell was that thing?" "Evacuate the outer sections and lock down the facility." "How dare you?" "It's all right." "What are you talking about?" "That thing out there." "You saw it?" "Not clearly, but it killed one of your guards right in front of me." "[Sighs heavily]" "So, what is it?" "Some sort of experimental genetic hybrid?" "Dreamed up by a war-mongering bureaucrat and assembled by your team of modern-day Dr. Frankensteins?" "Just stop." "I had nothing to do with that creature." "Oh, really?" "So it's just a coincidence that it's roaming the halls of your genetic testing facility." "Whatever it is, it's naturally occurring, I swear." "It showed up about 12 hours ago, attacked a cleaning lady, and then disappeared again." "What do you mean, it just disappeared?" "It vanished." "It evanesced." "It went "poof"." "That's impossible." "Well, we searched the entire building, we've done secondary scans for heat, movement, oogly-googly-ness, and there's nothing, not a trace." "So why didn't you call for help?" "For what?" "For some non-existent creature that I can't describe?" "And besides, who would I call, you?" "You seem to have forgotten you're not exactly on everyone's speed-dial anymore." "Well, I'm here now, and I suggest that we find that thing before it does any more damage." "You know, cooperating with you is a federal offence." "Okay, would you rather we left?" "Right this way, please." "Thank you." "[Elevator dings]" "[Will sighs wearily]" "[Clattering]" "Aah!" "[Roaring]" "Don't." "Stop doing that." "Sorry, he startled me." "Who is this?" "Name's Galvo." "Actually, it's Galvofestichius, but I usually go by..." "[Belches hugely]" "Oh, man, that one tasted." "He tracked me down in Old City." "Needs a lift back to Hollow Earth." "Yeah, I heard you're running folks down there." "I gotta get in on that." "Yeah, well, good luck with that." "We just got busted." "What happened?" "I thought we cleared passage." "Apparently, somebody tipped off the Chilean authorities." "We got intercepted in Valparaiso." "They took the abnormals, held me for nine hours, and then put me on a military transport back to Santiago, where I had to catch another flight back home." "And the abnormals?" "But you're going back again, right?" "I gotta get down there." "I can't take it up here anymore." "Every time we turn around, somebody's grabbing you." "That, and the food really disagrees with me." "[Belching hugely]" "Ugh..." "What is it about you and me and dark, narrow corridors?" "You know, it does seem to be a recurring theme, doesn't it?" "Hey, what do you say we ditch the kid and find an intimate supply closet somewhere?" "What say we find the deadly creature that's been terrorizing your staff before it decides to strike again?" "Yeah, that too." "Buzzkill." "[Clattering]" "Everyone else hear that?" "Oh, thank God, Nikki!" "Uh, hey." "Uh, Dr. Coates." "I was so scared for you." "They said you ran away, but I knew you'd come back." "[Scoffs] Run away." "No, I didn't..." "What are you doing here?" "Well, the lights were going out in our section, so we ran in here to hide." "All right, everyone stay put." "Let's go." "Well, maybe I should" "Now, Nikola." "Fire!" "What the hell was that thing?" "It seemed to be using some sort of inter-dimensional event horizon." "That would explain the appearing and disappearing." "But how is that possible?" "In order for it to move through space-time, somebody would have had..." "[Tesla sighs]" "Nikola?" "Dude, what did you do?" "Well, about my work here," "I, uh..." "I may not have been entirely candid with you." "Out with it." "All right." "I may be partly responsible for the appearance of that creature." "You don't say." "Bear in mind that when first approached about this job," "I did turn it down." "What's your point?" "My point is that the fear of abnormals is so pervasive in Washington that when they came back a second time, they basically offered me a blank check to fix the problem." "Anything I needed to get the job done, no questions asked." "I see, and you saw an opportunity." "How could I pass it up?" "Pass what up?" "What's going on?" "He used the government money to fund his own research." "Skimmed off the top." "Yeah, and off the middle, and a little bit off the bottom, too." "Dude" "Oh, please." "I'm stealing from the department that's funding an assault on what you do." "You should be thanking me." "Oh, yes, you're our own personal Robin Hood." "So what exactly are you working on?" "Nikola?" "[Tesla]:" "Behold your tax dollars at work." "[Magnus]:" "Um-- wait for it." "[Typing rapidly]" "[Hits enter, machine beeps]" "[Hydraulics whir]" "That's a rift node." "[Tesla]:" "It's Adam's design." "With significant improvements, of course." "What is all this for?" "Power." "As much as you need, whenever you need it." "You're drawing energy from the rift." "The node creates a stable rift field roughly half the size of this facility." "I can tap into it whenever I want." "Picture it-- unlimited clean energy right beneath our fingertips." "No more wars on oil, no more nuclear meltdowns, no more insufferable celebrities telling us to "go green", and all because of the genius of one man." "Adam Worth." "Mock if you will, but you know very well this is the culmination of my life's work." "Ever since Edison stole my ideas over a hundred years ago," "I've been searching for a way to destroy that Menlo Park windbag, and now I finally I have it." "12 hours ago, I ran a test." "I was able to draw enough energy to power the island of Manhattan for a week." "Did you say 12 hours ago?" "Yes, I know what you're thinking." "It roughly coincides with the appearance of our multi-tentacled friend, I admit it." "I'd say it's more than a rough coincidence, Nikola." "If that creature is indeed from the rift, then your node could be interfering with its habitat somehow, allowing it, or even causing it, to hunt in our physical reality." "You need to shut it down." "Are you crazy?" "It's taken me months to stabilize the field." "So what, you're just gonna let that thing keep attacking people?" "Listen, if a rat gets loose in my house," "I don't destroy the house, I kill the rat." "I'm not asking you to blow it up," "I'm just saying turn it off." "I can't." "That's the beauty of this system." "Once the field is stabilized, the node draws energy from the rift to maintain it." "It's self-sustaining." "Well, luckily," "I've brought the world's foremost expert in taking things apart." "Henry?" "I'm on it." "Are you kidding me?" "Him?" "No-- wait, don't touch that!" "Just hold on." "All right, fine." "I'll find a way to shut it down." "Just tell furriest George to keep his hands in his pockets." "In the meantime," "I'm going to search for the surviving members of your staff-- or should I say future members of the class action suit against you, help them find a way out of here." "Keep me posted, Henry." "Every time she shows up." "Hey, you got a lot of cool stuff down here, you know that?" "Yeah." "We used to have this swap meet every six days in our section of the tunnel." "You could make some serious trades with this stuff." "Hey!" "What do you call this?" "That's a vase." "Yeah." "And what about this?" "Also a vase." "And this?" "They're all vases, hmm?" "Huh." "Speaking of vases," "I might have dropped something in that big white one downstairs." "You know the one with the handle that makes the water swirl?" "It spilled everywhere." "Could you do me a favor?" "Sure!" "I need something in there." "Just, uh, towards the back." "Don't be afraid of the dark." "Keep going, right in the back." "You see it?" "That'll do it." "Hey." "Where's, uh, Galvo?" "I don't know" "[Galvo]:" "Hey, guys, it's pretty dark in here." "[Knob rattles]" "I think there's something wrong with the door." "We need to get rid of this guy." "We can't arrange another trip to Hollow Earth until we have a bigger group." "It takes weeks to arrange transport and bribe the necessary officials, and that's assuming we find another new gateway now that Chile's off the map." "I won't last that long." "I know." "[Belch]" "[Sighs] You'd better..." "Oh..." "Close one." "Hey, if you guys are looking for abnormals, why didn't you just say so?" "Oh, good hearing runs in my family." "Dates back to when my great, great, great Uncle Dorfa-- short for Dorfafestichius-- was a sheepherder back in the early part of the century." "The thing about the abnormals, let's... go back to that." "Oh, yeah." "I used to hang with this group of Hollow Earth abnormals that went by the name "Chalkstone."" "I think it was because of the mineral deposits in their section of the tunnels." "Probably." "Anyway, we got separated." "They sent me out for food, and when I came back, they were gone." "I can't imagine why." "I looked everywhere, but I never caught up with them." "Maybe you guys could track them down?" "Hey, it would get me out of your hair a lot sooner." "Call everyone you know." "Call in favors, do anything." "He likes me." "Dude, it's simple." "Introduce a Xenon wash to flood the Cerrelium core." "That'll shut it down." "Yes, and unleash a massive dose of gamma radiation along with it." "I hope you're not planning on having children." "Uh, I am, actually." "My girlfriend and I are expecting." "You're kidding." "Nope." "She's due sometime in the next year and a half." "It's complicated." "Wow." "Well, that's the eighth sign of the apocalypse." "You can be a real jerk, you know that?" "Well, I'm sorry that I'm not more impressed about your ability to sow your seed." "No, you know what, it's not just that." "It's everything." "You're working for Magnus' enemies after everything she's done for you." "That's not cool, dude." "Would you rather I left the position vacant for somebody else to fill it?" "I don't know," "General Villanova, perhaps?" "Oh, come on, it's blood money, and you know it." "Listen, I'm not experimenting on abnormals, and nor do I intend to, and by the time those dunderheads in Washington find out," "I'll be on my own private island." "I hope you're happy there, 'cause you'll be all alone." "You just betrayed the best friend you ever had." "Your idea, about flooding the Cerrelium core." "It could work." "I know." "And the whole kid thing..." "Mazel tov." "You and Nikki, you've known each other for a long time?" "Yeah, you could say that." "He talks about you a lot, all the adventures you've had together." "They sound incredible." "I'm sure he's exaggerating." "You shouldn't be mad at him." "He's really an amazing man." "Run!" "Henry, the creature's back!" "You need to shut down that field!" "Uh, we're not there yet, Doc." "Well, get there!" "Now!" "Out of my way." "You're taking too long." "Dude, would you-- you're going to overload-- quit distracting me." "[Beeping in code]" "[Door beeps in error]" "I can't open it!" "[Magnus]:" "Anytime, Henry." "[Hits enter]" "[Power whining down]" "There." "Nice." "The field's collapsing." "[Stunner blasting]" "Well done." "You did it." "Uh..." "Yeah, no, we didn't." "What are you talking about?" "The rift field's coming back online." "That's impossible." "I shut down the node entirely." "I don't know what to tell you, dude." "It's powering itself without the node." "Not only that, but it's growing." "Incredible." "Do you know what this means?" "It means that the creature's hunting ground is growing along with it." "It won't be long before it extends beyond the facility." "Yes, yes, yes, but more importantly," "I did it." "I invented wireless electricity." "Hey." "Scientists get out okay?" "Yeah, they're all safe." "What's the status of the rift?" "Still growing." "At the rate it's going, it'll reach Alamogordo by morning." "That would be a horrible country song." "And him?" "Him?" "Oh, he's working on his Nobel speech." "Wants to call his invention" ""Tesla-tricity"." "Blimey." "I know what you're going to say, Helen." "But we simply can't shut down the rift until I know more about how it works." "Be reasonable, Nikola." "If that creature gets loose in a populated area-- am I the only one who recognizes the potential of this technology?" "It could revolutionize the world." "End poverty, starvation-- lives." "Every advancement in history has had some kind of human toll." "So, what number are you thinking?" "50?" "50,000?" "Look, for all we know, there could be more of those creatures, and as the field expands, it could draw them out." "You're speculating." "It doesn't belong here, Nikola, and if we're not careful, we'll lose control of the situation entirely." "I'm sorry, but we have no choice." "Where's Galvo?" "[Pounding on door] Help me!" "[Knob rattling]" "[Pounding urgently]" "Hello?" "This guy's nuts." "You can't leave me here alone with him again." "I won't have to." "I found the Chalkstone group." "You did?" "Where?" "They're meeting us at St. Michael's Church in the Fifth Ward." "Oh, that's great." "So, we get them back here, we can plan the next steps." "Head to Hollow Earth, right?" "Let's just take it one thing at a time." "We should go." "Yeah." "[Sighing wearily]" "What I wouldn't do for a glass of fine red." "Well, I'm sure there's another bottle of '95 Margaux in your office." "Just a short skip across the feeding ground." "Still sore at me, I see." "Do you blame me?" "You know, this could have been a banner year for you." "In the current climate, a woman with your expertise, not to mention arresting good looks, you would have been in high demand, but you chose to cut yourself off from the world." "Oh, silly me." "Missing the chance to play patsy to a government gone mad." "Please, get over yourself." "You know very well these directives change like the weather." "And besides, there's more than one way to skin a system." "You chose to fight from the outside." "I choose to fight from within." "Oh." "Oh, is that what you're doing?" "Right, and the abnormals under your care, are they in on it, too?" "Tell me, what happens when the government realizes that their research into abnormal-based weaponry has fallen behind under your watch?" "Better yet, what happens when you leave to start your own utility company?" "Planning on taking the abnormals with you as an advisory board?" "You're unpleasant when you use rhetoricals." "Do you think I want to be left out in the cold, fighting world powers at every turn?" "I had no choice." "This was the only way I could continue to operate without betraying everything that the Sanctuary stands for." "Yeah, how's that working for you?" "I'm just saying, Helen, there's a fine line between passion and fanaticism." "And there's a fine line between compliance and surrender." "Let's just hope we're both on the right side of it..." "Nikki." "What now?" "We wait for the signal." "There it is." "Let's go." "You wait here." "But..." "Okay, okay." "Everybody, this way." "Quickly!" "What the hell happened?" "I don't know." "Where are they?" "Oh, my God." "Wait, that's it." "Of course." "What?" "What?" "Heinrich, how do you dissipate an electromagnetic field?" "Increase resistance to the electrical curr..." "Wait, that's it." "Of course." "He's a smart one." "Care to fill me in?" "The field is sustaining itself by drawing power from the rift." "But if we re-activate the node and add resistance to that flow of energy, the field will collapse on itself." "It's like stalling an engine." "The only downfall-- [tesla]:" "Heat." "We'll need to beef up the shielding on the Cerrelium core." "Shouldn't be an issue if you have enough titanium on hand." "Which I do." "Small problem." "What?" "It's on the other side of the facility." "If I'm not mistaken, there's a lab with some titanium rods just up ahead." "If you're not mistaken?" "Well, it's not easy navigating in the dark when all the hallways look the same, all right?" "[Electricity crackles]" "Oh, crap, it's back." "Look out!" "Henry!" "Henry." "Oh, Dear Lord..." "Helen" "Don't!" "This is all your doing!" "Your selfish and base desire to meddle in things you don't understand!" "Still comfortable with the human toll, are we?" "You better go home." "This could take a while." "How did this happen?" "Some kind of advanced energy weapon." "Government?" "There's no way they'd have anything that sophisticated." "Besides, it's not their M.O." "They capture, they don't kill." "Well, someone knew." "Someone set us up." "Why?" "I mean, it doesn't make any sense." "Who stood to gain from this?" "I don't know." "What does Galvo think?" "I haven't spoken with him." "I thought he was with you." "Well, it's done." "The titanium rods will keep the node from overheating." "Good." "Get on with it." "Once the field collapses, the creature, and anything else, will be sealed inside the rift." "Well, what are you waiting for?" "Better do it before the creature claims another victim." "[Sighing]" "[Tracker beeping]" "What the hell is that?" "[Magnus]:" "It can't be." "It's impossible." "[Tesla]:" "You recognize it?" "It's Henry's tracking signal."

"The creature must be adapting to our physical environment." "I suspect it's built a nest somewhere." "Well, there's no way in or out." "It's solid rock." "Then we have no choice." "What?"

"I'm a Fendalope." "Small, but with densely-packed molecules." "Packs a mean punch." "Just like this." "Sorry it had to end this way." "You really were a nice guy." "You okay?" "Yeah." "Let's get him to the Sanctuary." "All right, I'm going to modulate the field and try to bring out the creature." "Are you ready?" "As I'll ever be." "Good luck, Nikola." "You too." "[Creature snarling]" "And..." "[Roaring]" "Hello, beastie." "Here goes nothing." "Henry?" "Over here." "My God..." "Oh, man, I can't believe you came." "Now, get me out of here."

"[Creature roaring]" "Hey, could you maybe pick it up a little bit?" "I'm sorry, are you rushing me?"

"Galvo had everybody fooled, me included." "Not good enough." "My instincts need to be better." "Why, because you're an abnormal?" "Because they're all I've got." "Look, since the invasion, everything's gone sideways." "It's a whole new world out there." "Factions of abnormals killing each other, plotting to kill us..." "You know why your instincts failed you?" "Because what they're telling you doesn't make sense." "It's only gonna get worse, isn't it?" "[Video game weapons blasting]" "[Knocks]" "Whoa!" "Hey, Doc." "You know what, I was just about to start that report you asked for." "Relax." "I just came to tell you that your tests came back." "No sign of radiation poisoning whatsoever."

"No, and I don't expect that I will." "He's still refusing to quit his job, so..." "We're on opposite sides, I'm afraid." "Oh, man." "I'm sorry, Doc." "Me too."

"Me neither." "Bra?" "See?" "You're not that out of touch." "You're good." "At Woodman High, I was considered a hot date." "I did a killer Trug." "What are you wearing?" "Old Spice." "Phil says it's a timeless classic." "So do you want to?" "Want to what?" "Kiss me." " Yes." " Good." "Good at kissing and dancing." "I'm very optimistic." "I'd better go." "It's only a clock." "Good night." "Well." "I guess it's official." "We had a date." "Maybe we can play bingo again sometime?" "I'm tired of bingo." "Maybe we should try that drive-in of yours." "Good night." "Before class started..." "Ronda and Justin wanted to lead the class in a group meditation." "That's really cool." "What we're going to do is send our vibes out into the group." "Everybody hold hands... and close your eyes." "Relax your muscles and take deep breaths." "Now try to feel... what the other person is feeling without speaking any words." "Send out your vibe... and receive the vibes from around you at the same time." "Can you feel it?" "Open your eyes." "What did everybody feel?" "I felt Mrs. Hunsaker's strength." "I can feel that Ronda is one with the earth." "She's so cosmically in tune." "So right on." "That's exactly what I sent out." "And I felt like you were full... of inner peace and harmony." "Vada, what did you feel?" " I felt Justin's hangnail." " No, Vada." "That's not what we're looking for." "A hangnail is insignificant." "What's in my soul... feel my aura." "I don't think I'm allowed to." "Tell you what." "Let's try it again." "Hold hands." "Gramoo once had a hangnail on her big toe." "It got infecfed and traveled to her vocal chords." "Ruined her singing voice." "I don't think Gramoo thought it was insignificant." "And some lettuce." "Watch out for the rust when you get lettuce." "I thought I recognized you two." "We're just picking things up for the barbecue." "Me too." "Mind if I tag along?" "Not at all." " A lot of potatoes." " It's for Shelly's famous potato salad." "I'm looking forward to that." "Damn it!" " Watch what you're doing!" " Sorry." "This'll be my first July 4th picnic in a long time." "Dad, didn't you say you needed prunes real bad?" "Just put anything you want in the cart." "I don't know what's gotten in to her today." "I need olives." "I used to like to play with my Ken and Barbie dolls." "Ken was my favorite." "Then one Christmas, I got them a camper." "All they wanted to do was hang out by themselves." "So I wasn't too upset when they took that wrong turn and went over the cliff." "Gave proof through the night" "That our flag was still there" "Oh, say does that star-spangled" "Banner yet wave" "I told you, use fewer briquettes." "Now look what you've done." " You've cremated them." " That's what I do." "Do you want to do it?" "Why don't you pre-measure the briquettes in little packages?" "Put out a product." "Support me a while." "How's it going, chef?" " I love your apron." " Thanks." " Is it ready yet?" " No, sweetie." "Not yet." " When." " Soon, honey." " When?" " In a minute." "It's hot." "You'll burn your nose." "Look out." " Just a minute, Mom." " Dinner!" "Rub-a-dub-dub... thanks for the grub." " Yea, God." " I'll second that." "Shelly, like seafood?" "Why?" ""See food."" "That's attractive." "Shit." "Excuse me." "Hey, who lives here?" "The Addams family?" " Danny, what are you doing here?" " What am I doing here?" "Hi, Ralph." "Danny, how'd you find me?" "You told everybody where you were going." "I'm here for the motor home." "These two people do not have a good relationship." "I've been living in it." "The camper is mine!" ""Mutual asset." That's what the lawyer said." "It's supposed to be ours." " Not Shelly's recreational vehicle." " Would you keep your voice down!" "My boss is watching us." "I'm impressed." " I guess I have to introduce you now." " All right." "Vada Sultenfuss?" "Tough break." "I like my name." "This is Danny and Ralph." "They own the Dino Raphael Salon in Detroit." "We were married." "Are you here to take her back?" "Nice to meet you." "We've got burgers and hot dogs, if you'd care to join us." " Can't stay." "I'm here because my wife..." " Ex!" "My ex-wife seems to have ripped off my camper." "Honestly, he got the Mustang." " I promise..." " I don't think so." "I've got a copy of the property settlement here." "Shit!" "This is my lease." "Damn it." "I keep forgetting things." "Getting senile." "What?" "I know you've suffered a terrible loss... and there's nothing anyone can do to comfort you." "I urge you to focus on the times you had with the camper... the trips you took, the sights you saw." "Those days are gone, but they'll live on in your heart forever." "Is he boinking you?" "That's a real bonehead thing to say!" "You're not gonna take her camper." " Oh, no?" " It's her home." "It's where she lives." "Really?" "Fine." "Go cook." " Give me the goddamn keys!" " That hurts!" "What you do that for?" " Who are you?" " I'm his brother." " Then you'll be visiting us quite often." " Why?" "Because if he ever tries to take Shelly's camper again..." "I'm gonna bury him in my front yard." "Your father's a savage." "Bye, Ralph." "Well, you were pretty great." "Is it really your camper?" " Can we see them from the back yard?" " You can get the general idea." "There they are." "They always look the same every year." "Look." "Did you love him?" "I would never marry anybody I didn't love." "He must like Shelly." "I never saw him hit anyone in his life." "He likes her." "Does he love her?" "Probably." "Do you like her?" "Yes, I do." "I think she's very good for your father." "Why?" "After your mother died, he was sad all the time." "But before that, he was pretty funny." "Really?" "Now when I see him with Shelly... sometimes he seems like the old Harry." "My dad was funny?" "He wasn't one of the Marx Brothers, but made me laugh." "My uncle fought in the Korean War." "He had a steel plate put in his head." "Daddy said he didn't come back the same." "One night, we picked up a radio station from Oklahoma in his teeth." "It was really neat." " What?" " Can't you see it?" " No." " It's there." "There is no chicken bone stuck in your throat." "Dr. Welty, are you sure those are yours?" "So you fill it with water, like this." "And what have you got?" "A water gun." "Cool." "Can I get one for Vada?" "Let me ask you a question." "Does Vada tell you why she comes here so much?" " She's dying." " Do you think she is?" "Why do you think she says that?" "She scared of all those dead people in her house." "You know that saying, " If you can't beat them, join them"?" "If she's one of them, she won't be as scared." "You know what I think?" "She's very lucky to have a friend like you." "She's my best friend." "Miss Vada, how are you feeling?" "As good as can be expected." " Guess what we got?" " What?" " This!" " Hey, you!" "I'm gonna get you!" "Give me that!" " I just got you." " You didn't." " Whoa." " What?" " There's a bee hive." " So?" "Stand back." "Are you crazy?" "You'll get stung!" "You're right." "Let's knock it down." " What do you want if for, anyway?" " 'Cause they're neat." "Got it!" "My mood ring fell off!" "I gotta find it!" "They're alive!" "Run for your life!" " Run faster!" "They're after us!" " I am running faster." " Hurry!" " Jump in the water!" " I have my clothes on!" " Do it!" " Vada, is that you?" " Yes." "Guess what?" "We're going to the carnival tonight." "Be ready to go in 10 minutes." "Shelly's coming with us." " Vada, what's your favorite ride?" " I like the freak show." "I know." "Let's go on the "sit on the bench and rest ride."" "I don't think that roller coaster agreed with your dad's stomach." "You have to watch what you eat here." "Once I went to a carnival with my cousins, David and Frank." "They ate hot dogs, and the next day came down with nephritis." "Nephritis is a kidney disease." "You don't get it from hot dogs." "All I know is, the next day they had high fevers... and their faces got very fat." "It baffled medical science." "They were in a magazine." "The were! "Popular Mechanics"..." "No, "Popular Science."" "I don't know." "It was "Popular."" " They're trying to hit that poor thing!" " Watch you don't knock out a fish." "Just arc it." "I don't know which ball's mine." " I won!" " Great!" "We have a winner!" "There you go, little girl." "See how easy it is?" "That's a gorgeous goldfish." "Where'd you get that ring?" "Did you win it?" "We have something to tell you." "We have some good news." "We're getting married." "My fish!" "We're having the wedding sometime near the end of the summer." "You'll be okay, little fish." "Should we get you another goldfish?" "No." "He's fine." "Fish are very resilient animals." "Don't worry." "I won't get another fish." "The bumper car!" "For just 50 cents... a half dollar..." "five dimes... ten nickels... we have a ride guaranteed to rearrange all of your internal organs." "Don't pass me by." "That's the bumper car ride!" "Bumper cars!" "You can't go to a carnival and not ride them!" "I'd fall asleep at the wheel." "I'll ride them with you." "Great!" "Come on." "I got the blue one!" "I'm gonna come get you." "Veda, keep your hands on the wheel." "Careful!" "Look out!" " Can Thomas J. come out?" " Sure." "Come in." " Wanna ride bikes?" " Sure." " Did you make your bed?" " Yes." " You're sure?" " It's made." "Come here." "You've got a milk moustache." "Let's go." " Bye, Mom." " Have fun, kids." " I'm running away." " Where are you running to?" "California." "I'm going to Hollywood to live with the Brady Bunch." " I wanna live with them too." " You can't." "They have enough kids." "You'll have to live with the Partridge Family." "Really?" "That's it." " Get up." " I'm tired of running away." "Besides, we passed this place twice." "We're not getting nowhere." " Why are you running away?" " My dad gave Shelly a ring." "Wow!" "Was it a decoder ring?" "You're such a retard." "It was an engagement ring." "They're getting married?" "Now you have a mother." " I don't like her." " I do." "She's real funny." "He likes her better than me." " I'm hungry." "I can't last any longer." " Then go home, baby." "I have to anyway." "My mom will be worried." "Leave, then." "Some friend you are." "You can come to my house for dinner." "No." "I'm hiding out." "See you." "Are the gentlemen going to stay or not?" "Perhaps you didn't hear what I said." "The whole Circle fortune goes to you." " Twenty million dollars." " I heard you, all right." "That's quite a lot, isn't it?" " It'll do in a pinch." " I wonder why he left me all that money." "I don't need it." "In school, we learned some people stole the Lindbergh baby out of his house." "I think I'll sleep with my window open tonight." "Oh, my God!" "Daddy!" "What's the matter?" " Where's Daddy?" " He just left." "What's wrong?" " I'm hemorrhaging." " What do you mean?" "I don't want or need your help!" "Did this happen in the bathroom?" " How old are you?" " Eleven and a half." "It's okay." "Come upstairs." "We have to talk." "My mommy and daddy did that?" "It's actually a very beautiful thing." "There wouldn't have been a Veda." "I think it should be outlawed." "Believe me." "Someday, you'll feel differently." "That's probably Thomas J. I don't want to see him." "It's not fair." "Nothing happens to boys." "Hi." "Can you come out?" " I don't know." " Please!" "It's real hot." "Maybe we can go swimming." "No!" "Get out of here!" "And don't come back for five to seven days!" "I'm going to the bathroom." "I'll be right back." "Stay here." "It's quarter to three" "There's no one in the place" "Just you and me" "So set them up, Joe" "I've got a little story you ought to know" "We're coming, my friend" " To the end of brief episode" " I'm so sorry." " So make it one for my baby" " All right." "It's okay." " And one more for the road" " Very, very sorry." "What were you thinking?" "It's your responsibility to watch her!" "Do you have any idea how upset those people are in there?" "Why do you think people want to get married?" "When you get older, you just have to." "I'm going to marry Mr. Bixler." "You can't marry a teacher." "It's against the law." " It is not." " Yes, it is." "'Cause then he'll give you all A's, and it won't be fair." "Not true." "Have you ever kissed anyone?" "Like they do on TV?" "Maybe we should, just to see what's the big deal." "I don't know how." "Here." "Practice on your arm, like this." "Like this?" "Enough practice." "Close your eyes." "Then I won't be able to see anything." "Just do it." "On the count of three." "One." "Two." "Two-and-a-half." "Three." "Say something." "It's too quiet." "Just hurry!" ""I pledge allegiance to the flag... of the United States of America." "And to the republic for which it stands... one nation, under God... indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."" " You better not tell anyone." " You better not either." "Well, let's spit on it." " See you tomorrow." " See you." "What?" " Would you think of me?" " For what?" "If you don't marry Mr. Bixler." "I guess." "Get away!" " What are you doing?" " Feeding my fish." "Is that the fish you won at the carnival?" "He's getting big." "Come here and sit down for a minute." "Something happened to Thomas J. last night." "He stepped on a beehive." "I told him not to tease those bees." "Did he get stung?" "Maybe I should go over and yell at him." "No, sweetheart." "You can't." "Why not?" "He was allergic to bees." "He's okay, isn't he?" "There were just too many of them." "What's wrong, sweetheart?" " I can't breath." "I'm suffocating." " Relax." "Let me look." "It's okay." "Come up here." "Let me have a look." "That's a girl." "It hurts so bad!" " Make it stop!" " What hurts?" "The bee stings!" "I can't breathe!" "I'm leaving some food by the door in case you get hungry." "Is Veda home?" "She is." "But she's very upset so she's not seeing anyone." "I'm Judy." "I go to school with her." "I wanted to tell her I'm sorry about Thomas J." "Maybe she'll feel better in a couple days." "Will you tell her I came by?" " Sure." " Thank you." "Bye." " Hi, Harry." " Hi, Reverend Moss." "I know the Sennetts want to thank you for taking care of things so quickly." "I see you took your tray in." "Maybe you should come down for the funeral." "Sometimes it helps." "She won't come out." "It's been a whole day." "You have to do something." " The funeral's starting." " She's 11 years old!" "Her only friend is dead!" "I know!" "What do you want from me?" "Stop hiding!" "You run." "When I came here, the idea of working with dead people didn't thrill me." "When I saw a family lived here..." "I thought... if I'm living without a family, at least I can work with one." "And maybe, once and a while, be invited for supper." "And when those suppers are disrupted when there's a car crash... or a little boy steps on a beehive..." "I'm not asking you to stop feeling for those people." "But life isn't just death." "Don't ignore the living." "Especially your daughter." "Excuse me." "The minister's about to begin." "Thank you, Arthur." "We are here to... honor Thomas James Sennett." "He was born May 7, 1961... in Madison, Pennsylvania." "He's survived by his loving parents..." "Charles and Susan Sennett... his grandparents, William and Gloria Sennett... and Gerald and Marjory Finn... and many relatives, friends and schoolmates." "The internment will follow at Madison Memorial Park." "The family has asked me to say a few words before we proceed." "No words I could say would begin to express... the loss and grief." "One word that keeps ringing in my ear... is "why?"" "Why would God choose to take this little boy from us?" "Why?" "I cant give you an answer to that question." "I can tell you..." "God has chosen Thomas J. for some very special reason." "We must find solace in knowing that he's in God's care." "In that place, there is no sorrow or suffering." "The lion lies with the lamb." "The day is not divided." "I'd like to read a passage from the Bible." "This is Matthew 19." "At one point, children were brought to Him... that He might lay his hands on them in prayer." "Disciples began to chastise Him." "But Jesus said, "Let the children come to me." "Do not hinder them." "The kingdom of God belongs to such as these."" "He laid his hands on their heads... before he left that place." "Let us pray in silence." "Wanna go tree climbing?" "His face hurts!" "And where are his glasses?" "He can't see without his glasses!" "Put his glasses on!" " He was going to be an acrobat." " He's gone, sweetheart." "Wait!" "I was just on my way to your house." "You all right?" "I'm so sorry about Thomas J." "We don't have to talk about him!" "It's okay." "We won't talk about him." "Justin and Ronda say that I should tell people what I feel." "Come here." "Sit down over here." "I love you." "I love you like my dad loves Shelly." "And I wanna live here." "I think your dad would miss you." "No, he wouldn't." "I can't go home." "Hank, I'll be ready in a second." "I can't find my other earring." "This is Veda." " I'm really sorry." " Could you give us a minute?" "Who's that?" "That's Suzanne." "She and I are gonna be married this fall." "I was gonna bring her to class next week." "I want her to hear your poem." "Please, honey." "I cared for him too." " Please!" " Get away from me!" "Sweetheart, don't..." "Why do you think people want to get married?" "When you get old, you just have to." "Who's that with your dad?" "That's my mother." "I'm gonna be an acrobat when I grow up." "Would you think of me?" "If you don't get to marry Mr. Bixler." "Now we're blood brothers for life." " We haven't found her yet." " She can't be alone in the dark!" " We'll keep looking." " We've been looking since this morning." "Her teacher said..." "I know." "You told us." "Are you okay?" "I should have told Thomas J. he was my best friend." "I'm sure he knew." "I stole some money from your cookie jar... to pay for the writing class." " It's okay." " I'll pay you back." "Besides, I don't think I'll ever go to class again." "Tell you what." "You dedicate your first book to me." "I'll forget the whole thing." "I will." "I promise." "Get into bed." "'Night." "She's here." " Did I kill my mother?" " What?" "The bees killed Thomas J., and I killed my mother." "That wasn't your fault." "Things like that aren't anybody's fault." "It just happened." "I found this." "I forgot about that picture." " Where'd you find it?" " In the garage." "That little Chevy was your mother's favorite car." "What was my mama like?" "She was pretty." "Kind." "She had your eyes." "Did she love to laugh." "Sometimes when you laugh, you sound just like her." "Really?" "Know what she did when she found out she was going to have you?" "She came home and painted this whole room pink." "She was so sure she was going to have a little girl." "Do you miss her?" "I did very much... for a long time." "Even now, I get a little sad when I think about a pretty flower... or a beautiful sunset she would have liked." "I think every time I see a climbing tree, I'll think of Thomas J." "That's good." "Memories are good, sweetheart." "I'm sorry." "I was trying to keep it from you." "I just couldn't." "You're a good girl." "I want you to be happy." "Don't be an old grump like me." "See you in the morning." "Daddy." "It's not so bad to be like you." "How are you doing?" "Some days I think I'll be okay..." "Others..." "I have to force myself even to get out of bed." "I know it's crazy, but sometimes I think he's just away at camp." "How's Veda?" "She's doing much better." "She's just inside." "I've been wanting to see you." "Thomas J. had this on him." "I thought you might like to have it." "You were such a good friend to him." "I hope you'll still come by and visit me." "I will." "I promise." "Thomas J. will be all right." "My mother will take care of him." "Thank you." ""Encased in talent, like a uniform... the rank of every poet is well known." "They can amaze us like a thunderstorm... or die so young... or live for years alone."" "My advice to you on our last class:" "Be a thunderstorm." "What exactly do you mean by that?" "I mean, be dangerous... and unpredictable." "And make a lot of noise." "We missed you, man!" "Give me a hug." "I was hoping you'd stop by today." "Can't stay." "I just came to read my poem." "We'd love to hear it." ""Weeping willow with your tears running down... why do you always weep and frown?" "Is it because he left you one day?" "Is it because he could not stay?" "On your branches he would swing." "Do you long for the happiness that day would bring?" "He found shelter in your shade." "You thought his laughter would never fade." "Weeping willow, stop your tears." "There is something to calm your fears." "You think death has ripped you forever apart." "But I know he'll always be in your heart."" "Things are a little better these days." "I finally swallowed that chicken bone." "Judy and I are going to be in the same homeroom." "And the Republican Party just renominated Mr. Nixon."

"Previously on Van Helsing." "Susan?" "(fighting grunts)" "(screams)" "It's true." "Get ready to run!" "One of ours was killed before you got here." "Whoever did it, took a finger, just like this." "I remember your scent." "Hey!" "This is only temporary until we find out who the real killer is." "I did." "I killed those people." "We break in through here." "We are up and in without them even knowing." "Now!" "(growling and snarling)" "Fresh meat to the one who brings her to me." "(snarling)" "Run!" "(gasping)" "(snarling)" "Let's go!"

"I'm getting us out of here." "Ok, sure." "Woah!" "It's ok." "It's ok." "You rest now." "Remember you used to sing this to your little girl." "♪ Twinkle, twinkle, little star, ♪" "♪ how I wonder what you are. ♪" "♪ Up above the world so high, ♪" "♪ like a diamond in the sky. ♪" "♪ Twinkle, twinkle, little star... ♪" "(screeching)" "I wonder what's in there." "I don't know." "They told me to stay close to everyone else." "You know, it's probably more food." "Supplies." "All the stuff they didn't want us to find out about before." "Gosh." "Do you think it's ever going to be the same again?" "Like, the world I mean." "Of course it will be, sweetie." "Really?" "Absolutely." "All this bad stuff?" "It's only temporary." "I can feel it." "Maybe it's really a toy store with toys and candy and stuff like that!" "(laughs)" "Callie!" "(screams)" "(starts sobbing)" "You ok?" "Can you keep going?" "Look who's talking." "I'm fine." "I'd throw you over my shoulder and carry you myself but I'd probably resent your ass for like six months or so." "We wouldn't want that." "Ok look, these numbers." "They correspond to streets." "Really?" "Yeah, my old bus route, remember?" "Yeah." "Downtown is on a grid so if I remember correctly we just... we're close." "A few more blocks underground and we should be able to go topside." "We could risk it now." "But no doubt we're being tracked." "We're better off staying underground as long as we can." "Yeah." "These things down here..." "I need a minute." "Susan, listen." "If something happens, ok, if we get split up or whatever and you find Dylan before me," "I just..." "I need you..." "I need you to tell her that I'm alive." "Ok?" "And that I'm searching for her." "And that I will find her." "Ok?" "I will." "Ok." "But we're gonna get out of here." "For Dylan." "And you can tell her your damn self." "Ok?" "Mmm-hmm." "Mmm-hmm." "And yes, ok, we never should have taken the keys, ok?" "I know that, but... come on." "Come on!" "You don't... this guy has booby-trapped the entire hospital and Callie walked right into it!" "Thank god she's so tiny or she... it-it would have torn her in half." "(starts sobbing)" "I want to know what happened." "The hell that you've got going around here." "I'm gonna need you to be a bit more specific than that, big guy." "(groans)" "I seriously have no idea what you're talking about." "Your stupid traps, asshole." "All the shit you've hung up and hidden away around here, that's what." "Why's that?" "Because you almost killed a little girl, that's why." "Where was this?" "Why does that matter?" "Just asking." "The south side of the building." "The blood bank or whatever it is." "Well you ought to teach her to read because I put a sign on the door that clearly says "keep out"." "You asshole!" "I got this." "I'm gonna need a list of every gadget you've stashed around this place." "Why would I do something stupid like that?" "Because that's the only way a group of people trying to live here can safely go about their daily lives." "That is why." "You got a pencil?" "I do." "Great." "Take it and jam it up your ass." "(groans)" "(moans)" "You're such a tough guy, but you're gonna tell me in the end anyway." "Why, so you can take this place over for good?" "We already have taken over this place." "For good." "(groans)" "Does Taka even know we're doing this?" "Do you think I would risk being here without telling him?" "Where is he?" "He's planning." "He's looking at the big picture." "All I care about is getting free of here." "Of them." "Does he have a grand plan about that, too?" "Look, there's two things I know, Quaid." "Number one:" "I trust Taka with my life." "And number two:" "I know what if I ask too many questions he could end my life like that." "You got this?" "Piece." "Of..." "Cake." "Wait." "Wait, wait, wait." "Send a scout first." "They only guard the front, not inside." "No, something's wrong." "This was your plan in the first place." "I'm going." "Sweet." "Wait." "Show me your face." "Quaid?" "Show me your damn face."

"I've got a kid." "I do." "What?" "I try not to think about it, but... uh, it was when I first," "I was young and my dad wanted me to get rid of her but... so I-I was... so I left and ran off."

"I'm gonna kill you!" "Stop!" " You're dead!" " Stop!" "Stop!" "I understand how you feel, I do." "But this is not how we do things." "Go cool off, now!" "Now." "Is that how you control your people?" "I'm sorry, this is not the way we operate." "Oh yeah, except for my little hallway beating." "This won't happen again." "Oh, good." "I feel so much better." "I promise you." "I know it's not gonna happen again because if any of your people come at me like that again I'm gonna kill 'em." "You might wanna go tell them that." "Here, let me take a look at that." "You eavesdropping with that thing?" "Is that what that is?" "You always carry that around?" "Hey." "What're they saying?" "(whispering)" "Come on." "Come on." "They're going to execute us." "All of us." "Come on." "Almost there." "Oh god, that thing down there that bit me" "Something's not right." "Shit." "It's ok, there's a doctor in there." "We just gotta get back in." "The door code is 1936." " 1936." " I hope." "(growling)" "Shit." "We gotta go." "(ferals growling)" "(growling)" "Damn, it's really starting to hurt." "You said you normally heal faster than this."

"Are you sure you can trust these people?" "I hope so." "At least for now." "Holy shit, you made it back!" "Yeah, just." "How?" " And who's this?" " It doesn't matter." " I'm her friend." " Where's Doc?" "She needs a doctor, now." "Go get the doctor." "I'll take these two to the cafeteria." "Go." "The cafeteria, why?" "It's closer." "Come on." "Doc, we need you." "Now, please." "What're you guys trying to pull?" "They banished Mohamad?" "Why?" "Then they stabbed Axel and now they want to get rid of us." "What?" "Sam read their lips." "They're gonna execute us." "Hey, how're you doing?" "Hey." "I sacrificed myself for you and this is how you repay me?" "You-you lock my people up, you attack them?" "It's just temporary, believe me." "Just until we know that we exiled the right one." "Look, one of them is a murderer." "It's a fact." "Mohamad took the blame so we sent him away." "Bullshit." "That kid would never..." "Look, it doesn't matter." "Someone did it." "We're trying to figure out who." "Fine." "I'll stay out of it." "I'll be friggin Switzerland as far as your concerned." "Ok?" "Just leave Susan alone." "I'll be on my way when I'm better." "Understood." "Obviously you'll be free to go when you've recovered, so..." "You're gonna leave us?" "What do you think?" "I think I can count on you." "Good." "Fill me in." "We're doing our best." "There's a grate in the ceiling." "We're trying to get one of us through it." "Good." "That's good." "You do that." "I got a message for Axel." "Susan, you can help with this, too." "(whispering)" "What do we do now?" "We can't keep them locked up here forever." "You're right." "Axel's the problem." "We separate him, maybe we can get to the truth." "Shit." "How dare you?" "!" "Who are you to talk to me that way?" "Huh?" "Back off!" "I said back off!" "You bitch!" "You bitch!" "You're just like these assholes!" "Put that thing down or I will stab you in the throat, bitch!" "I'll kill you!" "I'll kill you!" "I'll kill you!" "I'll kill you!" "(screaming)" "Escort the doctor back to the others!" "Hey, you stay here with Vanessa." "Uh, she said "Switzerland"." "Remember?" "So give us some space." "Oh, and we're both gonna need some new clothes." "You got that?" "What happened?" "Vanessa's back." " She made it somehow, but..." " She's alive?" "Yes, but very injured." "Now, listen." "She has a plan." "She says you need to try and get out." "If you can catch Brendan off-guard then somehow secure the doors on both ends of the wing they can take out whoever is left on the other side." "Who are "they"?" "She-she brought in some woman, some Susan chick." "Anyway, she said "take out the generator"." "She wants me to get them in the dark." "Get them disoriented, get the advantage." "I'm in." "I'll do the lights." "You?" "It's better than facing a firing squad at dawn." "Why not me?" "You can't do both." " Yeah, I can." " Not at the same time." "You need to trust someone, Axel." "Let one of us help you." "Fine." "What else?" "She said... um, she said something about building a rat trap?" "What does that mean?" "Meaning get them all jammed down one end of this joint, treat them like a bunch of goddamn vermin and then..." "What?" "Gee whiz, I don't know, John." "What do you think?" "I think we're all gonna die." "That's what I think." "Hey, you." "Hey there." "Look what I found." "Oh, sweet." "Do you remember me?" "Of course." "Vanessa." "Hi." "They told me you got back." "That's good." "Yeah." "Are you ok?" "I heard about what happened to you." "Yeah, I'm fine." "I still like it here." "Good." "That's good." "Hey, you wanna have fun?" "You wanna play a game?" "Sure." "Ok, but you can't tell anybody, 'cause that'll ruin it, alright?" "It's gotta be just between me and you." "What're we gonna play?" "Hide and seek." "That's fun!" "Yep, and you can hide anywhere you want." "But if you come out before I find you, or before I yell "I give up", then you lose." "Ok?" "We're about to have dinner." "Should I save you a couple plates?" "No thanks, we'll make our own." "For protection, without touching your borders." "You want some help, babe?" "(groans)" "Don't call me babe." "(dishes clatter)" "Hold it right there." "I just need to talk to Brendan." "That ain't happening." "(alarm sounds)" "(gunfire)" "(groans)" "He's in here!" "He's in here!" "(groans)" "Oh, shit!"

"What the hell have you done?" "!" "Christ!" "I'm gonna need those keys." "It didn't have to be like this, man." " Not like this!" " No, it didn't." "And?" "And like I said, I'm gonna need those keys." "God damn you." "I should have killed you when I had the chance." "Yeah, you probably should have." "(alarm continues to wail)" "Let's talk about this, man." "Come on." "Oh, we're about to talk." "You comin', new girl, or what?" "It's Susan." "No, not with him." "Why's that?" "He's one of them." "No, not anymore." "Vanessa turned me just like she turned you." "No, this guy?" "He's..." "He's one of us now." "You might not like it but that's the way it is." "No, no, no, no, no, no." "Yes, definitely." "We can't just... what're you saying?" "The obvious." "Jesus." "We might as well be them." "He's not saying kill the rest of them, are you?" "(sighs)" "No, look-I just..." "we can't stay like this." "In here, us and them." "Ok." "Then what's the answer?" "I don't know the answer, I just..." "I did what I had to do." "You didn't have to, you chose to." "You just slaughtered their whole group." "Yeah, all those people." "For you." "And you." "And you." "All of you, so all of you didn't have to die." "Yeah, but..." "That's the way the world is now." "Yeah, says you." "I'm sorry, was it a bad idea?" "Obviously not." "I'm..." "I'm just saying..." "What?" "These were people." "We killed people." "Actual people." "Actually, I killed those people." "That was me." "You didn't do shit." "So what's the answer then?" "We know the answer." "Is this how you handle everything?" "You're throwing them to the wolves." "You just love to be the good guy when you're sitting over there with no dirt on your hands." "So that's it then?" "We all agree?" "Like it or not." "Yep." "Yeah." "Ok then." "End of discussion." "What about the little girl?" "Callie." "Callie!" "Callie!" "Callie?" "Callie?" "Callie!" "I heard shots." "Callie." "I was hiding for so long." "I'm sorry." "It's okay." "Callie, listen..." "Do you give up yet?" "Yeah, sweetie." "I give up." "(sobbing)" "Quaid." "The others." "All dead." "You're a traitor." "(sobbing) I swear to you, I didn't know." "I didn't know." "They wanted you to have those building plans." "Walked us right into a trap." "It had to be you." "(sobbing)" "Who did you betray us to?" "Hmm?" "You tell me or so help me god I'll... (gasps)" "(choking)" "Your god won't help you now." "Where is Taka?" "Tell me where to find him." "I don't know who you're talking about." "Taka." "I'm sorry." "I can't help you." "(groans in pain)" "No?" "No." "And even if I could, I wouldn't." "But you already have." "I wasn't sure Taka even existed until now, thanks to you." "Someday he's gonna come for you." "I told you." "I know your scent." "Now you'll lead me to the others." "Please don't do this." "I'm begging you here." "Look, send me then." "Send me but leave the rest of them, please." "Look, you can't do this." "You just can't." "You're killing us." "You realize that, right?" "You're basically sending us out there to die." "You mean exactly what you were about to do to us?" "And what you already did to Mohamad." "This is-he was a murderer." "Liar!" "We never said we were gonna kill you!" "Liar." "We didn't." "Someone here is killing people." "And it wasn't any of us." "It's one of you." "Don't you hear what he's saying?" "Grab your stuff." "Let's go." "Don't have more blood on your hands." "Come on!" "I can't go back out there." "I can't." "Just give us another chance." "Let's move." "Can they please stay, Vanessa?" "If they act really nice this time, please?" "Callie." "I'm sorry, sweetie, no." "I know it's hard to understand but they just can't." "I'm sorry." "(starts crying)" "It's ok." "Shh, it's ok." "Noon's your best shot." "Now, get outside the city, you might have a chance." "Someday when the monsters are gone and the sun is shining, we'll go on a new adventure." "No, Callie!" "Callie!" "No, Ca-Callie!" "Cal-Callie... (sobbing)" "Oh, please." "Ok, go now." "Go now." "No, no, Callie!" "Callie!" "You changed the code?" "What's the code?" "What's the friggin' code?" "!" "You can't open it again." "It's too dangerous." "I'm not doing it." "Besides, she's with her people." "She's where she wants to be." "She's just a little girl." "(continues to sob)" "I'm worried about this wound." "Why?" "It's not healing over and you seem to be getting worse, not better." "It doesn't matter." "Vanessa, listen." "We tried to stop the little girl but... she got out..." "I don't want to talk about it, Doc." "She seemed to really care about you." "Drop it." "Do you think it would have been better if we just killed them?" "Right here in the hospital?" "What do you think?" "I don't know." "Who knows what's right and wrong in this new world?" "Exactly." "Nothing matters anymore."

"The last time the Empress threatened to execute off-worlders... ( hiccups ) she did." "Rygel... I need your help." "They're going to torture her and she doesn't know anything." "I'll float above the streets for a better view." "Yes!" "We'll find her." "What the frell is that?" "She does not know Crichton's whereabouts, as I suspected." "So, get rid of her." "I believe she may have another use." "I don't even want to know." "Cargn, we're through." "Everything you said would pass has not." "I'm simply trying to ensure your ascension." "If Crichton is not found by tomorrow, you'll be crowned." "Through no efforts of yours, sadly." "Which means I no longer need your allegiance." "The dissolution of our relationship is not yours to effect." "Look, my mother knows about us." "I can't be married until I renounce you." "I will not allow it." "I'm doing you a favor, a-hmm?" "She's going to start the ceremony by executing off-worlders." "Get out of here." "Hide." "Run." "There's no way for me to escape and you know it." "And I thought you were good." "I am." "I have one final question for you, duplicitous Prince Clavor." "What?" "Do you know that as promised, I am about to kill you?" "No... no..." "No!" "Yes." "Just a little tingling in the hands and feet. I'm good to go." "Too late." "Local animals are carnivorous after dark." "Animals." "Okay, fine." "First light." "I have people to protect." "As I must mine." "Can I trust you?" "Oh yeah, I'm a regular Boy Scout." "I do what I have to do." "And I assume you do it well." "( sniffing )" "( growling ) I, uh... I have found Cargn." "It will take both of us to kill him." "Scarrans have exceptional strength." "And why do you think I'll help you?" "He has Chiana." "And you want her." "And you don't?" "I want John Crichton." "You'll never get Crichton." "He'll die first." "You underestimate the strength of a relationship even your friend does not yet understand." "( laughing )" "I want you to have this." "A little stuns and a lot kills." "Tomorrow will be dangerous." "Scorpius, Cargn, the Empress's anger." "Be careful." "I might not be able to protect you." "One step at a time, Jena." "One step at a time." "I'm sorry I brought this on you." "Do you always pursue women you don't know?" "If I'm drawn to them." "Would you be lying here helpless, giving up, if Crichton were back there waiting for you?" "You wouldn't understand." "Does your leg hurt?" "It's broken." "I'm trained to deal with that." "That's the answer." "You're not trained to deal with emotions." "So you're afraid of them." "Emotional pain... you wear like a badge." "It means you've been there." "And it can't get calloused because each fresh hurt stings like the first." "Why would you want that?" "Because of all the days before it hurts." "The good days, when you're in love." "It's too bad you can't get back to at least tell Crichton how you feel." "What difference would it make?" "He's a frelling statue." "But he can hear." "He can see." "He'll know, Aeryn." "At least he'll know." "Crichton:" "You're late." "I'm moving a little slow." "Are you ready to do this?" "I've grieved with the best of them." "All right, showtime." "I hope it all works out." "One way or the other." "We're not compatible." "( glass breaking )" "You always know just what to say." "Not always." "But sometimes I know who to say it to." "Give me some time before you enter." "( grunting and panting )" "Aeryn." "What?" "Look." "Man:" "Hello." "Hello, do you need help?" "Stay there. I'll come and get you." "Yes." "Dregon:" "Aeryn?" "Listen." "I know this didn't turn out like we wanted." "I know I was a hindrance." "But I was hoping... we could go out again?" "No!" "No!" "This can't be!" "I'm sorry, Jenavian." "There was nothing we could do." "Surely the Empress knows that this is the Scarran's work." "How could she not?" "Of course she knows!" "And he will be the first one put to death." "Why the rest of us?" "Because, fool that he was, no offense," "Prince Clavor was her son." "You will all be arrested and executed." "Crichton:" "I feel compelled to disagree with the Empress on that decision." "Crichton..." "Crichton!" "Hey, Sparky." "Oh, thank the spirits." "Jena." "Sorry about your Prince, but I hear he deserved it." "( sobbing )" "Your Excellency, who defiled your position?" "Who rescued you?" "Later." "Rygel, what about the others?" "Nothing on Aeryn. I'm sorry." "D'Argo's with Scorpius." "They think the Scarran has Chiana So they're gonna to kill him." "Crichton, wait!" "Where are you going?" "I don't know. I'll let you know when I get there." "I'm assuming my execution is off." "Chiana!" "( whimpering )" "Stay back!" "He cannot damage your brain from this distance, but any closer..." "There are two of us and only one of him." "How badly do you want him dead?" "( Chiana whimpering )" "No closer or the girl dies." "That will not help Prince Clavor become king." "Agreed." "This is about killing you." "The girl." "Has she told you where Crichton is?" "Of course not." "She doesn't know." "But she did say you aren't allies, and that in all probability, you did not come here to impede my plan." "It must be painful to realize that you are defeated, yes, defeated, by nothing more than your own suspicions." "Too hot in here, Scorpius?" "What's the matter?" "When he becomes incapacitated, I shall turn full attention to you!" "Nothing. lt's nothing." "Don't listen to him." "Because if you do, you'll know this mutant's weakness." "That his Scarran half loves the heat, thrives in heat, craves heat." "But his Peacekeeper half is destroyed by that same warmth." "is this true?" "Thermal regulator suit, cooling rods inserted directly into his brain." "Tell me the rumors are true." "Please tell me your search for thermic constancy is tormentful." "( yelling )" "( screaming )" "Luxan coward." "Now you will die!" "Hey!" "Crichton!" "( screaming )" "You haven't defeated me!" "Obviously not." "But you dumped me in the acid, so let's see how you like it!" "( screaming )" "( screaming )" "Chiana!" "No!" "You're the best." "How Batman was that?" "!" "You guys okay?" "We're fine, John." "It's good to see you." "You, too." "What about Scorpy?" "is he dead?" "If he isn't, he should be by the time you come out." "( screaming )" "I'm not your enemy." "I'm not your friend." "You leave me the hell alone." "Or the next time we part, one of us will be dead." "I am sorry if it upsets your line of succession, but I am not going to be a statue again." "I understand your concerns, as I'm sure you must understand ours." "However, if you're the kind of man that would walk away from his own child, we would not want you to rule." "Child?" "What the hell are you talking about?" "My daughter is pregnant with your seed." "How?" "Whoa!" "How?" "No, no." "We never..." "Samples from the DNA comparison." "Did you really think a system this stable would leave so important a detail to chance?" "Make me a statue." "You change your mind so quickly." "A child deserves two parents." "My child deserves a father." "Make me a statue." "Counselor Tyno, arrange for this honorable man to reundergo the transmutation process." "I'm afraid that's impossible, Empress." "Recall that Crichton is not Sebacean." "Based on our findings, human physiology would not tolerate the process a second time." "What the hell are you talking about?" "If you stood beneath that machine again, you would die." "She won't be defrosted for another 80 cycles." "I'm not going to live that long." "I won't be there for them!" "I know!" "I'm sorry." "You take my place." "I can't." "Nobody knows me, right?" "The public, they don't know who I am." "Your unveiling was to be your introduction." "Right." "Counselor Tyno can be your new king." "Their chromosomes are not compatible!" "It doesn't matter." "She's already pregnant." "And it satisfies everything that you need." "And it gives my child a good father." "And they love each other." "( headset beeps )" "What do you say?" "Does this work for you?" "Yes." "Thank you." "I'm sorry that I won't be around." "I'll never forget." "It's your call." "As long as the secrets we forge in this room do not escape, it can be done." "Well, there you go." "Good guys win for once." "And I have a child that I'll never know." "Princess Katralla wants to know if you'd like to see your offspring." "Yes." "Hi, there." "Hi." "Are you my Dad?" "Yeah, that's right." "I love you, Daddy." "You take care of my little girl." "So how come Crichton didn't kill Scorpius?" "D'Argo:" "It was a mistake." "One that I fear will come back to haunt us." "Yeah, but he can't follow us, right?" "Well Pilot says that we're safer now." "Did he tell you what happened to Moya?" "Zhaan, either." "Rygel thinks they were scared I just think they were lost." "Either way, they're keeping it to themselves." "Hey." "I'm very proud of you." "I'm proud of you." "You handled yourself well." "Well, you handled meself well, too." "What's the matter?" "Aw, I just can't stop thinking about Crichton will never see his daughter again." "Hits pretty close to home, huh?" "The fact that I may never see my son again is a grief I would wish upon no one." "It pains me to think of what he's going through right now." "It pains me, too." "And you thought we weren't compatible." "Zhaan said the surgical reconstructors did an excellent job on your leg." "There's no sign that it was ever broken." "Yeah, I was, uh... worried about you when you didn't show up for the wedding." "Anyway, I'm..." "I'm just glad you're okay." "And I have noticed that you're not talking to me."

"I was the hacker, but I didn't kill her." "The real killer of Sin Hyo Joeng was someone else." "Are you Hades?" "The person who murdered Sin Hyo Jeong is Pak Gi Yeong." "The real murderer wears a 'world map' watch." "Did you kill Sin Hyo Jeong?" "The sender said he would pay me a large sum of money, if I found a file named 'Phantom' on Sin Hyo Jeong's notebook." "If the video file can be found, we can catch Sin Hyo Jeong's real murderer." "You should not have found the file." "You're Pak Gi Yeong, right?" "Tell me!" "You're Pak Gi Yeong, right?" "The only way we can solve the case and publicly announce the results, is for me to become Gim U Hyeon." "The phantom that did this to U Hyeon and me," "I'll stop him in memory of U Hyeon." "Keep in your mind what I'm going to tell to you now." "Chief Sin Gyeong Su of the Investigation Division, treats Team leader Gim U Hyeon like his son." "Since he treats U Hyeon as his son, he should be at the top of our 'danger' list." "Pardon?" "He is certainly very familiar with U Hyeon's interests and habits." "Shirts...jackets, and also neckties." "Are these the only clothes he had?" "I'm going to be suffocated to death." "Formal dress at Police Headquarters is standard." "No wonder you can't think straight." "Next." "Chief Jeon Jae Uk is one of the best managers among the younger generation of division chiefs." "But, because he's always competing with the investigation division, he doesn't have a good relationship with Team leader Gim U Hyeon." "The problem we have is that Chief Jeon Jae Uk, has been appointed as the chief for the new Cyber Security Bureau." "In other words, he's become our direct superior." "He will nitpick every single thing." "You should be mentally prepared." "Team leader Gim U Hyeon doesn't drink alcohol at all." "Is that so?" "Next." "The rest are people you will be working with in the cyber crime investigation team." "Officer Han Yeong Seok, previously from CID." "Although he's still not adept at computers, he's outstanding in operations." "Since Officer Lee Tae Gyun was in secondary school, he's been known as a computer genius." "He was working for a games company, when he was specially recruited for this team." "I'm checking to see if it's related to the case." "Prof. Gang Eung Jin of the digital forensics laboratory, he's an expert in recovering digital evidence that's been damaged." "Video evidence is specially handled by Prof. Lee Hye Ram." "If someone greets you, don't smile." "Reply with a quick greeting and then go." "At the National Police Agency, there are a lot of big shots around." "I'm well aware of that." "I'll be on guard." "That's all, right." "The person who killed Sin Hyo Jeong and made me the scapegoat," "I want to see just how great he is." "I want to personally meet him and ask, why he killed U Hyeon?" "Why did he turn me into this?" "He's here." "Welcome back." "Thank you." "How's your health?" "Thanks for your concern." "I'm a lot better now." "That's good." "Some time ago, I worried about the lack of suitable candidates, for cyber crime investigation team 1." "But, based on the recommendations from a number of chiefs," "I appointed a new team leader for cyber crime investigation team 1 today." "Officer Gwon Hyeok Ju is the new team leader." "Excuse me." "Wait." "But, why...did you suddenly act on your own?" "Let's meet frequently in the future." "It's been a while." "Please take good care of me." "Please take good care of me." "I tried my best, but the fact that you acted on your own was too serious an error." "It could not be overlooked." "They couldn't re-appoint you as a team leader." "In addition, they said that the team was weak in operational capability." "Therefore, Officer Gwon Hyeok Ju, who has an operations background, was recommended." "=Yu Gang Mi=" "Be careful." "Although you were part of the investigation team, with the formation of the new cyber security bureau," "Chief Jeon Jae Uk is now your superior." "Are you all right with that?" "You'll now have to work for Gwon Hyeok Ju and Jeon Jae Uk." "It won't be easy." "It doesn't matter." "Seriously, you're really all right with that?" "Long time no see." "Congratulations!" "Are you shocked?" "This is for you, team leader." "You should take this." "Look at your scared face." "In the future, if you dare to go alone again, without informing us, we won't let you off." "Congratulations on your reinstatement." "Congratulations!" "Congratulations!" "You should be aware of why I recommended you for this position." "I accepted this position for only one purpose." "Case no. 2234." "The investigation into Sin Hyo Jeong's death has not ended." "Why did Gim U Hyeon go alone to meet Pak Gi Yeong?" "And also what happened between the two of them?" "I'll find out the truth." "No matter what your reason, keep a good watch over Gim U Hyeon." "What did Gim U Hyeon try to hide?" "Report all his movements to me." "If you're finished, I'll leave." "Hello, it's me." "I've done as you instructed." "If I find anything suspicious about Gim U Hyeon," "I'll report to you." "Starting from today, this will be your office." "We moved all your things over here." "Officer Gwon Hyeok Ju has been appointed the leader of cyber crime investigation team 1." "Really?" "Yes." "Officer Gwon Hyeok Ju is someone who hates the cyber crime investigation team and computers." "He must be here for another reason." "Is there anyone trying to get close to you?" "Since Team leader Gim U Hyeon has returned to work in the police force, there should be some activity on the part of the real murderer of Sin Hyo Jeong." "No, there's no such person." "Redo your necktie." "What do you mean?" "I can't smile." "I can't talk." "I can't even remove my tie." "You may as well stop me from breathing." "Team leader Gim U Hyeon was always an orderly person." "If they were to find out that you aren't Team leader Gim U Hyeon, everything will be over." "What is this?" "Yes, right." "What were both of you doing just now?" "I came to find something." "One needs to live longer to know what's lie in front." "The capable Gim U Hyeon has crawled beneath me." "It seems that the long hospitalization stay has given you greater self control." "Or perhaps your ears are blocked?" "Please get the situation straight." "I didn't crawl beneath you." "It's you who crawled above me." "But I don't know your reason for doing so." "That's how it should be!" "Then it will be more interesting." "Wait and see, why I crawled here." "I'll show you why." "This is a case that came into the National Police Agency a few days ago." "The family members of Sin Hyo Jeong, who passed away last year, are suing netizens who posted certain videos on the internet, for damaging her reputation." "Videos." "What sort of videos?" "The videos are being called Sin Hyo Jeong game videos." "Isn't this the video that showed the killing of Sin Hyo Jeong?" "That's right." "At that time in the Sin Hyo Jeong's case, hacker Hades, had it screened on the jumbotron." "Then this video was made into a game and uploaded, onto a famous video website." "The Sin Hyo Jeong video game is about replacing the face of the late Sin Hyo Jeong with the faces of celebrities, or merging the faces of political figures and well-known people into the video." "Gamers have even merged the faces of dogs and cats, into the original video and uploaded the results online." "There are already more than 500 copies of merged videos, posted online." "These rascals, what are they trying to do?" "How could they use the video of a deceased?" "We are to investigate who uploaded these videos and check the degree of damage they caused the deceased, whether they have malicious intent, check the frequency of uploads, and so on, to determine which culprits are to be punished." "Yu Gang Mi, this is the online information regarding Sin Hyo Jeong's case." "There are about 50 netizens who directly uploaded the video onto the website." "It also contains their IDs." "Good." "Thank you." "Gim U Hyeon, has he left?" "Yes, he just left." "What are you doing?" "Why?" "Why aren't you participating in the investigation?" "Since you said you wanted to be Team leader Gim U Hyeon, why aren't you investigating?" "All of a sudden, I feel like eating." "Eating?" "I'm going to die of hunger." "Wait..." "You said you were hungry but why are you only eating ramyeon?" "Only ramyeon?" "Research shows that ramyeon stimulates the brain and makes people happy." "Didn't you read about it?" "Really?" "Is there really such a research finding?" "Of course, there isn't." "How can you be so gullible?" "How did you become a police officer?" "What are you doing?" "Looks like you're not eating." "When did I say I'm not eating?" "It's unexpected that a person without the strength to hold a spoon, can actually eat so well." "Really!" "You're too much!" "I graduated from the Police Academy." "I'm a police officer of the Republic of South Korea." "Stop belittling me." "You splashed me, didn't you see?" "Compared to your face, the information here is more important." "This is the list of names of the people who uploaded the game videos of Sin Hyo Jeong." "What is this?" "Quick, take a look." "I'm not interested in those videos." "Phantom." "It's phantom." "This is the list of names of the people who uploaded the game videos of Sin Hyo Jeong onto the Internet." "The ID that sent you the evidence that Sin Hyo Jeong was murdered was..." "Phantom0308." "Are they really the same person?" "Is there only one ID containing 'phantom'?" "Although there are multiple IDs containing 'phantom'," "I bet we won't find another that also has the digits 0308." "0308, 3rd of March is Sin Hyo Jeong's birthday." "Sin Hyo Jeong's birthday?" "It must be someone related to Sin Hyo Jeong." "This is an overseas website." "People can join even without a personal identity card number." "As long as we know the IP, we know where he's accessing from." "IP 202.21.5.109." "This is the location of that IP address." "What are you doing?" "Trespassing is illegal." "Let me call the owner." "Wait for me." "As you're calling the owner, the criminal will be escaping." "But you can't do this." "Be careful." "It's very messy in here." "I have no luck." "Seems like there was a fight." "Hurry, look here." "She's dead." "Was this the person on the video?" "No." "It was another woman." "What's going on?" "The IP address clearly showed that this is the place." "What about the video that phantom uploaded?" "Who is this woman?" "Sleeping pills." "It can't be suicide." "There's a mark on her neck." "She was murdered." "Don't move." "Police." "Choe Seong Yeon?" "Yes, it's me." "Re..." "Reporter." "I'm a reporter." "Reporter, why are you here?" "Well, I had an interview with Bae Yeong Seo who lives here." "She was frightened because of a computer stalking a few days ago." "I tried calling her after the interview, but she didn't answer her cell phone or her landline." "I was very worried." "Is she the Bae Yeong Seo that you're talking about?" "Step back." "Step back." "I just saw her the day before yesterday." "Was she being stalked then?" "Yes." "The computer mouse moved on its own on the desktop." "Then it wrote some strange words." "That really frightened her." "Why did you interview Bae Yeong Seo?" "Was it because of the stalker case?" "It wasn't because of the stalker." "I'm preparing a special report on the first anniversary of Sin Hyo Jeong's death." "I wanted to use some of the anti comments written by Bae Yeong Seo." "So I came to interview her." "Was Bae Yeong Seo related to Sin Hyo Jeong?" "Why did you need to get information from her?" "I needed information about the 'Sin's True Facts' website." "At the time when rumors about Sin Hyo Jeong's sex scandal were everywhere," "Bae Yeong Seo started an on line 'anti' campaign to uncover the truth about Sin Hyo Jeong." "Don't you think that the words on the walls look like malicious online comments?" "Don't tell me Bae Yeong Seo died because of those?" "That's it for now." "We'll call you for assistance if you're needed." "True Story." "Internet news?" "Why?" "Are you looking down on internet news?" "Even though you may not think so, this type of news is quite popular on the Internet." "Interesting." "Do a thorough job." "Huh?" "But, please keep it confidential until the investigation is over." "I can't find the notebook." "It looks like the criminal took it." "The person intentionally stalked Bae Yeong Seo." "It looks like she's been hacked." "I can't find the malicious code he used to get in." "The two of you were the first ones on this crime scene." "Weren't you supposed to be investigating the game video of Sin Hyo Jeong?" "In the course of investigating that video, we traced it to this particular IP address." "We came over to check and found the body." "We were late in reporting." "Sorry." "What Officer Yu said makes sense." "Anyway, there is no harm in reporting it later." "There's another matter to report." "We were told that before the victim was killed, she was being cyber stalked." "This murder case is inextricably intertwined with the internet." "What Officer Yu said makes sense." "I can also help in the investigation of the crime scene." "Hey!" "Does everything that Yu Gang Mi say make sense..." "It really does makes sense." "Hey!" "You may as well..." "Bring the digital evidence quickly back to headquarters." "You go and interview the people living nearby and check out everything." "After that, check the nearby CCTVs." "Do you understand?" "So you're saying that because this video was uploaded by phantom0308, you tracked down the address and discovered the death of another woman." "Yes." "Have you found out the identity of the woman on the video?" "It's difficult to determine her identity with just her face." " Byeon Sang U." " Yes." "Do a facial composite for that woman and send it out." "After that, check out the faces of people on the missing persons list and unidentified bodies." "Yes, I understand." "Now!" "Now, now, now!" "The autopsy is out." "It's as we suspected." "She died of suffocation from strangulation around her neck." "From the size of the hand, it's likely to be a male." "The time of death was 2 days ago between 1900 hrs and 2200 hrs." "2 days ago, wasn't that the 30th of May?" "That's right." "Why?" "This Sin Hyo Jeong game video was uploaded, 2 days ago at around 10:30 at night." "So?" "Are you saying that after he killed Bae Yeong Seo, he merged the video with another woman's face and uploaded it from her home?" "Did he go over to her house to upload that video?" "Does that make any sense?" "Reporter Choe Seong Yeon was right." "What do you mean?" "These are samples of the graffiti that was found on the walls at the crime scene." "This is the website managed by Bae Yeong Seo 1 year ago." "She was asking for information about Sin Hyo Jeong." "These are online comments made by Bae Yeong Seo." "Not only these." "I checked out all the graffiti on the walls." "They're exactly the same as the malicious comments posted by Bae Yeong Seo." "What?" "She was killed because of her malicious comments." "Really?" "It's on the news." "What is this?" "The comments are sensational." "Netizens are saying that Sin Hyo Jeong's aggrieved spirit killed the malicious blogger." "It's produced a lively online discussion." "She ran a website called 'Sin's True Facts'" "Correct." "=It's been a while since I appreciated a cultural life.= =A Magician's Dream... really touching.= =I was chosen to experience this dreamlike experience.=" "=It was a really a happy day.=" "Sin Jin Yo, was the one who ran 'Sin's True Facts'." "She moved to Seoul when she started college." "According to her neighbors and co-workers, she was a quiet person, not the type of person who would offend others." "What about the CCTVs?" "We're looking into the footage before and after she was killed." "But it won't be easy." "There aren't many CCTVS in that area." "We looked into Baek Yeong Su's cellphone, but the records for phone conversations and internet browsing seem normal." "The possibility of it being remotely controlled, by malignant codes transmitted from emails are high." "Are you going to go through the emails?" "But we don't have Baek Yeong Su's email password." "What's Baek Yeong Seo's username for that website?" "It's 2g32." "It must be really nice to be an officer instead of a hacker." "I went to the Police Academy." "I know." "I logged in!" "What?" "Wh--what?" "The username that uploaded the video is phantom0308." "I got a call that he's logged on to the same website he used to upload the videos." "The IP number is 72.207..." "Hey!" "Hey!" "The address!" "It's Sinnam-dong." "What's wrong?" "Aren't you coming?" "My laptop is here, right?" "'My laptop?" "' What do you mean?" "Hades' laptop." "Yes, it's in the evidence room." "You do it your way, I'll do it my way." "It's been a while." "The IP is 74.207.244.221." "I'll use the scanning program to identify the weaknesses and then attack." "The malignant code will be transmitted through the weak port 9929." "Success!" "Phantom, this is only the beginning." "The suspect... is currently uploading a video of the victim Baek Yeong Su." "The videos are stored in the F drive." "A removable hard disk drive." "A removable drive is where people normally store secrets." "It may be the key to finding the murderer." "Where is it?" " Over there!" " Where?" " Let's go!" "Go!" "Go!" " Hurry!" "No..." "Don't..." "Thanks for the hard work." "Seriously..." "Send over the forensic team!" "Who's in there?" "Open the door!" "Pisses me off!" "What the hell?" " Get him!" " Yes!" "Hello?" "Did you manage to catch the suspect?" "Did you?" "No, we didn't." "You have to get him!" "That suspect, knows who really killed Sin Hyo Jeong." "Go over there!" "Over there!" "Hurry!" "Hurry and send some backup!" "What are we doing?" "We're the cyber crime team." "I don't see him around here." "What about you, Team leader?" "He's not here either." "=An online newspaper reported the homicidal death of someone who had maligned the reputation of Sin Hyo Jeong=" "=Another homicide victim who also maligned Sin Hyo Jeong was found dead.=" "The first victim was an active internet user and a virulent anti in the campaign against Sin Hyo Jeong."

"What's the current situation?" "The second victim, Jeong Seo Eun, was already dead before she was hung." "The feeble suicide scenarios, first by sleeping pills and then by hanging, and also the writings on the walls." "Based on this we can conclude the culprit is the same person." "Then, this is a serial killer?" "That's right!" "What about the perpetrator?" "Are we looking in the right direction?" "Baek Yeong Su, 27 years old office worker..." "Jeong Seo Eun, 22 years old college student." "Other than both posted hateful comments about Sin Hyo Jeong, they don't have anything in common." "We need to find out what type of victim is targeted by the killer, in order to figure out who the next victim is likely to be." "If the killings are being done as revenge for maligning Sin Hyo Jeong, isn't it necessary to look at those who are close to her?" "including her fans." "Sin Hyo Jeong has as many avid fans as she has antis." "It's basically impossible to track down the real killer that way." "What about the IP?" "If the killer doesn't get log on to the website where he uploaded the videos, locating the IP is impossible." "Impossible?" "People are dying one after another, and you're telling me the cyber team of the National Police Agency of the Republic of Korea can't do anything about it?" "Tracking the IP won't solve the problem." "The killer makes a video after each kill, and then uploads it using the IP of the next victim." "By the time we track down the IP, the killer has acted again." "So?" "Before the next victim dies, we can only sit here and do nothing?" "What?" "We received a call from the Incheon homicide division." "It seems like... another victim has been discovered." "She's the woman in the killer's first video." "That's right." "Her name is Han Yu Ri." "She was found dead in her home." "Just like the other victims, it's a murder case staged as a suicide." "Also the writings on the walls... has the same style of handwriting." "How is Han Yu Ri's case unfolding?" "What about the killer?" "Although we haven't confirmed the identity of the killer, we found a clue." "The identity of Han Yu Ri's boyfriend is a key piece of evidence." "His name is Yang Seung Jae." "Up until two months before Sin Hyo Jeong's death, he was her manager." "Manager Yang Seung Jae, is very close to Sin Hyo Jeong." "The serial killer who is avenging Sin Hyo Jeong, may well be Yang Seung Jae." "Have you confirmed Yang Seung Jae's alibi for the second and third murder?" "We should start the investigation now." "Let me join!" "Nope!" "Why?" "Because I hate you." "I like you." "I saw a photo of Sin Hyo Jeong's killer, in the laptop that was used by the suspect in Seo Eun's murder." "Really?" "His face?" "Did you see the killer's face?" "No, I didn't." "But at least these photos show that, the suspect in Seo Eun's case knows the real killer of Sin Hyo Jeong." "You're back." "I heard you have a suspect." "We'll find out whether or not he's a suspect after he's caught." "What about the evidence?" "Jeong Seo Eun's best friend told me, that she chatted with Jeong Eun Seo on the internet just before Eun Seo was killed." "But the conversation was weird." "Jeong Eun Seo said, 'I have sinned, I deserved to die.'" "She then said, 'You'll die very soon, tonight.'" "This doesn't make sense." "Jeong Seo Eun's computer was also being remotely controlled ." "Remotely controlled?" "Hackers use e-mail to send malicious code." "Once the recipient opens the email, the code starts to attack, and the hacker is able to control the computer remotely." "Is that so?" "That's why, never open an email from an unknown source." "But sometimes it's unavoidable ." "Emails sent to employees will look like emails which contain the annual bonus." "Emails sent to young gamers will look like a free offer to download new games." "To housewives, it will look like a discount coupon for the supermarket." "Once the email is opened, there's no turning back." "The friend who chatted with her didn't say anything else?" "Nothing else." "Except for that weird talk." "By the way, she mentioned something about the victim being in a good mood after watching a play." "A play?" "A play." "The email that's being used to spread the virus is associated with this play." "A complimentary ticket to a play?" "The play called 'A Magician's Dream'." "Baek Yeong Seo and Jeong Seo Eun both received free tickets to watch the play." "I did some checking and it's still playing." "How about the malicious code?" "Did you look into it?" "I sent the evidence to the analysis lab." "It takes some time before the result is out." "What about the ID and the IP?" "The ID and IP belong to the theatre." "So?" "You want to go there now?" "If not, are we going to just sit here?" "I'll go and ask who's responsible for issuing complimentary tickets." "Let's go together!" "Welcome!" "Did this email originate from here?" "Yes, this is an email about our current play." "Did you win the free ticket?" "If so, you need to bring a print out of the tickets with you." "Who is in charge of issuing this kind of email?" "It is issued by a troupe member." "Where can I meet the members?" "You can find them in the office." "But it's almost the time for the play to start." "So everybody should be in the theater now." "Okay." "Aren't you two police officers?" "What are you doing here?" "I came to see the play." "What about you two?" "No, we're here for a purpose." "How is it going with the anti case?" "Why?" "You plan to write an article about that?" "No, it's not like that." "We have to leave." "I won the free ticket." "Great!" "Congratulations!" "Do you have the invitation with you?" "Here!" "When did you receive this email?" "A few days ago." "Why?" "Do you have any additional VIP seats?" "Only Aisle D, No. 7." "People who get invited sit in that seat." "Yes, you're right." "Then Baek Yeong Seo and Jeong Seo Eun, who were murdered, sat in that seat?" "Aisle D, No. 7." "Mr. Yang Seung Jae." "You are Mr. Yang Seung Jae, aren't you?" "That's right." "Please come with us!" "What is it?" "You'll know wh" "Hey!" "This punk!" "Hey!" "This punk!" "Are you guys police?" "Do we look like doctors?" "Yang Seung Jae, you're under arrest for the murder of Han Yu Ri." "You have the right to a lawyer and to remain silent." "Wh--what did you say?" "What murder?" "Han Yu Ri." "Yu--Yu Ri?" "You mean I killed her?" "It wasn't me!" "Everyone says that, they're not the killer." "Really..." "Then why did you run?" "I ran because I was scared." "I want to live." "Stop with the excuses." "The people who sat in that seat are all dead?" "Think again!" "You really didn't post any hateful comments about Sin Hyo Jeong?" "I already said that I didn't do it." "So before Baek Yeong Seon and Jeong Seo Eun died, they both received emails, went to the theater, and sat in that particular seat." "It clearly has something to do with this play." "=We would like to thank everybody for coming here tonight to watch our show.=" "=The performance will begin now.=" "What is romance?" "Sometimes it blooms like a flower..." "Sometimes...it blazes like fire." "It makes people unable to take their eyes off it." "The story I am going to tell today, is a story about such romances." "I heard that before Han Yu Ri died, you had a heated argument with her." "Did you hit her?" "Why did you fight?" "In a relationship, these things are inevitable." "I honestly didn't kill Han Yu Ri." "There was someone else." "Who was the other person?" "About that..." "I'm not sure." "I really don't know anything about, his name or what he looks like." "You have no idea what his name is and what he looks like." "How do you know he's the killer?" "I'm not lying." "I saw it too!" "There were strange words on the monitor." "What's wrong?" "What did you see?" "Do you remember the sin that you committed with your own hands?" "What kind of bullshit is this?" "It must be because of that." "The rumors about Sin Hyo Jeong's sex scandal that started about a year ago." "Sin Hyo Jeong's sex scandal?" "Did Han Yu Ri spread the rumors?" "No, it was me." "It wasn't Han Yu Ri, it was you?" "I'm sorry, but at that time Hyo Jeong refused to listen to her fans and was very arrogant." "I was pissed off, so..." "Why did Han Yu Ri die and not you?" "I'm not sure." "Only Yu Ri was bothered by it." "Everything started after she saw that play." "What play?" "One day, an invitation to a play was sent to my ID." "I gave the invitation to Yu Ri." "After she went to see the play," "The things I mentioned earlier started to happen." "What's the name of the play?" "The name is, 'A Magician's Dream'." "It will end soon." "So, just like that, everyone found his or her true happiness." "This is how my story ends." "Everyone, are you happy?" "Yes." "Everybody will leave filled with love." "But, where could my love be?"

"You're very lucky." "Matthew is a charming, intelligent little boy." "He also has autism." " What?" " Autism." " Oh, God." " Wait a minute." "He's a little shy, behind a bit but autism?" "Jesus." "What does that mean?" "It's a hard word to hear, but it's also a very misunderstood word." " Matthew's a beautiful child." "He's..." " I know my son is beautiful." " I understand what you're feeling." " Really." "I have two autistic boys of my own." " Two?" " Oh, man." "Yes." "I felt everything you're feeling twice." "What's gonna happen to him?" " He's going to grow up." " What about school?" "He may be best served in a special program." "Special?" "What do you mean, like blue-bus special?" "That's not my kid." "I mean, look at him."

"There are some places in this world that are a lot easier to get into than out of." "Like East Berlin, for instance." "I mean, look at me." "I'm dying to leave." "So far, so good." "But the next part's where it could get a little touchy." "My grief-stricken mourners, here to lend a helping hand." "Getting a little warm in here." "Open the gate." "Vorsicht." "Kannst du bitte helfen?" "Danke schon." "Hier Kontrollstelle." "Jawohl." "Jawohl!" "Jawohl!" "Sounds of trouble." "I guess this makes me about the first guy who ever attended his own funeral and lived to tell about it." "We have reviewed your proposal." "Yes, sir." "It is correct in every detail." "We have had assurances like this from you in the past, Quayle, particularly where they concern MacGyver." "MacGyver is the only blemish on my records, gentlemen." "I have never failed you in anything except..." "We know that dreary story, Quayle." "He made a fool of you." "Of us." "He was lucky, extremely lucky." "And I admit I underestimated him." "But this time I'm ready for him." "I can guarantee you success." "You guarantee to neutralize the information" " he took from us in East Berlin?" " Absolutely." "Promises." "Always promises." "We must have results." "We must prevent that information from reaching American intelligence." "Consider it done." " And suppose you fail again?" " I won't." "I see you remember what happened to you after your last failure." "Yes, sir." "I remember." "Then let that memory be your inspiration, Quayle." "Let it guide you in your efforts." "What he means, Quayle, is this is your chance for redemption." "And it's definitely your last chance." " I understand." "Thank you, sir." " Good." "It is the decision of this tribunal to authorize your operation, based on your personal guarantee." "Thank you, sir." "Thank you." "You won't regret it." "I appreciate the opportunity to redeem myself in your eyes," " to reestablish my value in the cause..." " Better get started, Quayle." "Our sources have traced MacGyver halfway around the world." "He's about to return home." "I'll be waiting." "Would you get off the sidewalk." "Baby!" " What, are you gonna leave it there?" " You look terrific." "Boy, is it good to see you." "What a sight." "Especially with the three heavies that are setting you up for a hit." "Peter Thornton sent me." "How's the general?" "Generally good, except Thornton is a colonel." "And he asked me to remind you that he owes you a camel." "And you came all the way down here just to tell me that?" "Oh, sweet Lulubelle." "I love this girl." "I love her." "She's great." "I love..." "I love her." "You'd love her too." " Let's go, Lulubelle." " Name's Karen Blake." "Look more like a Lulubelle to me." "So how's Peter?" "Waiting for you." "So hold on, lover." " Aren't we going to Pete's office?" " No, he set up a special safe house." " You been with the company long?" " Why?" "Well, I thought I knew all the pretty girls in the office." "Business must be good." "Since when do safe houses look like this?" "Look, I was just told to bring you here for a high-level debriefing." "High-level lives in high places." "I've just got one question." " Hey, I'm only a courier." " I'm only hungry." "When do we eat?" "Good to see you again, MacGyver." "Quaint." " We thought so." " Pete." "All right." "It's good to see you." "And I thought all secret agents were cold and heartless." "No, Pete and I go way back, to some pretty funny places." "Is that what the camel was about?" "Well, the first time I met this fella, he pulled me out of the quicksand in the wadi Nafud." "Deep desert." "Then he put me on a camel, and he gave it this gigantic swat." " What happened?" " Oh, we just rode on out." "Yeah, for six days." "I couldn't sit easy for a week." "Anyway, it's good to see you." "And congratulations." "You had some problems getting out of East Berlin." "Yeah." "Had some real unfriendlies waiting for me." "I sort of had to cut and run for the border." "Turned a coffin into a Jet Ski." "Yeah, that part was fun." "I had a real good time." " Me and junior here." " That is very important." "So thanks." "You're welcome." "And congratulations yourself." "I heard." "Deputy chief of the department." "Big deal." " You can call me "sir."" " Yeah, I noticed." "This place?" "Yeah, it's been out of use for quite a while." "Off the list and unofficial, which is exactly what we need." "It seems we have a very large hole in departmental security." " What leaked?" " Your name." " And what you brought back." " Terrific." "So I'm handling it personally from here on." "Here, now and quietly." "My own office doesn't even know we're here." "No one does." "It's perfect." "Yes, it is." "Right in here." " Cosy." " Thought you'd appreciate it." "And in a way, it fits." "We are hunting big game." "Dangerous game." " You know Mrs Chung?" " By reputation." " It's a pleasure." " How do you do?" "The best crypt analyst alive." "Oh, Peter, stop it." "He's a politician." "I solve puzzles." "And I understand you have brought us one today." "Oh, yes, ma'am." " Should I be here, sir?" " Oh, yes, we're all staying right here until Mrs Chung decodes the microfilm." "Thank you." "This computer is fully programmed for us, Mr MacGyver." "Well, that's fine with me." "I just came for lunch." "I have not activated it." "What in hell is this?" "A joke, Peter." "Trick or treat." "It's April Fools'." "Peter!" "Peter!" "Don't touch that door!" "Hello, MacGyver." "Long time, no see." "Make the lady comfortable, and don't worry about her, MacGyver." "She's not dead, only sedated." "He knows you." "Who is he?" "Used the name Quayle." "Sold the British out to the Russians." "Double-crossed the Russians for the ayatollah." "Those dear, fun days." "I ran into him moving a planeload of stolen military computers." " What happened?" " I stole the plane back." "Your people weren't too happy with you, huh, Quayle?" "No, they punished me." "Because of you." "But now this is my game, my board, my rules." "Security leak a little bigger than you thought?" "As big as a house." " For this?" " No, no, no, no." "I was commissioned to destroy it and deal with you." " No." " Frightened, Karen?" "All in a day's work." "And in your case, with great pleasure, MacGyver." "Peter Thornton here." "Don't be stupid." "But do be adventurous." "Try to escape." "Try to find me." "Please!" "Don't touch anything, Peter." "What do you mean?" "He's got the whole place rigged." " To kill us?" " Yeah." "Sooner or later." "But first, the man wants to have some fun." " MacGyver, that's crazy." " So is Quayle." "His gears don't mesh." "Let's see if we can get out of here." "Maybe he's missed a trick or two." "I don't wanna leave Mrs Chung back there very long." "The best thing we can do for her is to get to Karen's car and get some help." "Oh, no." "Where's my car?" "Damn!" "It's gone." "Well, that's scary stuff." "The door has got to be booby-trapped." "Yeah." "Let's see if we can figure out how." "It's not electrified." " I don't believe it." " I don't either." " Gonna run a test, huh?" " Yeah." "A hit, MacGyver." "A palpable hit." "You always did like to talk, didn't you, Quayle?" "Karen, give me that sheet." "It's kind of a weakness of yours." "Kitchen." "Always had to say how great you were, didn't you, Quayle?" "Afraid maybe people wouldn't notice." "You'll be the last one to die." "That's what I figure too." "Of old age, hopefully." " Well, here it is." " Why here?" "You can find lots of handy stuff in a kitchen." "Let's look around." "Still with us, big guy?" "You certainly are talented, Quayle." " I mean, this guy has got it." " Got us, you mean." "Like pigeons in a coop." "Like rats in a trap." "I have never been nailed down so tight in my entire life." "Your appreciation is not wasted, MacGyver." "Quayle, take your bows, gent." "It's not every day I run into pure perfection." "Let's just say you are my perfect challenge." "Well, you certainly have met that challenge." "He is definitely back at the top of his form." "A new chess game with a new master, MacGyver." "You got that straight." "Brilliance, Quayle." "Pure brilliance." "Compliments acknowledged, but you aren't gonna give up so easily, are you?" "What's that fidgeting you're up to?" "Messing around with pots and pans won't help you." "So why don't you just put away the Tinkertoys and play the game?" "Absolutely." "Positively." "Let the games begin." "Quayle was listening on a radio frequency, so I figured by using every electronic gadget around," "I could heterodyne his frequency, give the man an earful of static." "MacGyver." " You built an electronic jammer." " Yep." "Quayle's gonna get nothing but white noise." "So we got a little privacy in here." "All right, I figure if we split up and keep moving around this house," "I can find a way to bust out while he's not looking." "Keep him busy tracking the three of us." "My radio phone." "It's in the library in my case." "If I can get to it without Quayle watching..." " Nice touch." " Okay, here we go." "One at a time." "Keep him guessing." "Stay low, move fast, think smart," " and if you go..." " And if you go, take company along." "Get out of here." "You know, MacGyver, when I was little," "I used to play international spy." "I think we all did, didn't we?" "Oh, I'd be wearing a designer gown and going to some great party at Buckingham Palace, meeting a Russian ambassador." "And I would get him to tell me all his secrets." "Maybe that's why I went to work for the department." "Deputy Chief Peter Thornton." "Red, red." "Repeat." "Red, red." "Details..." "But I already know the details, peter." "Well, I guess it's my turn to go out and distract Quayle." "Hey." "It's gonna be all right." "We're gonna make it." " Thanks, I needed that." " Come on, let's get out of here." "What do you say?" "Quayle was a thorough kind of guy, so it figured he had all the windows and doors either booby-trapped or covered by the guns outside." "But maybe I could make myself a set of wheels that'd draw his fire, and get me out of this homemade prison." "I'm listening to your symphony, MacGyver." "Or is it a requiem?" "When I was a kid, I used to build model planes with rubber-band motors." "Then I discovered batteries." "It sure did increase the mileage." "My dear Karen." "Welcome to my fortress." "It's going rather well, don't you think?" "Well, Quayle, I really didn't expect all this to be happening." "I mean, you said this was gonna be over quickly." "Well, it will be." "But you mustn't deny me my brief moment of fun." "Fun?" "I'm shaking." "Are you afraid they might find you out?" "Who could suspect such a darling innocent?" "But this MacGyver is very smart." "And Thornton is no dummy either." "Yes, that's what makes you my..." "What shall I call you?" "My little mole." "No, that's far too unflattering." "My perfect collaborator in this delicious charade." "I'm telling you, Quayle, I'm scared." "Of them and of you." "You said that we were just gonna do a simple job without hurt..." "I'm just teasing." "Just toying with them." " But Mrs Chung is down..." " She's a stranger." "There's someone much closer to you that you ought to be worried about, isn't there?" "All right." "I'll do what you say." "Perfect." "Now, what is MacGyver doing in the kitchen?" "When I left him, he was taking the motor out of a blender." "Yes, that's the handyman side of MacGyver." "He likes to make clever little things out of odd bits." "But I must have more details." "I must know exactly what he is doing." " I'll go see." " Yes, you do that, my dear." "No time to waste." "The sooner we deal with MacGyver, the sooner this'll be over." "There's my perfect collaborator." "Stay in touch." "What sort of a fantasy is MacGyver indulging?" "Answer me, Karen." "Are you there?" "Yes." "He's at the rear kitchen door, and he's built some kind of wheeled cart with a piece of the suit of armour on top." "It's the position I care about." "He'll be coming out of the back door." "And I'll be waiting for him." "Very good, Karen." " What are you gonna do?" " My dear, sweet Karen I only intend to embarrass them painfully." "Even MacGyver." "Especially MacGyver." "Help." "Obviously, the guns are targeted to shoot at a given height, at anything that moves." "But they can't shoot in two directions at once, so if I can get them aiming down there..." "Quayle, well, he's gotten clear." "Not to worry." "I'll get him back, Karen." "MacGyver, come back!" "I've got Thornton." "If you want to see Thornton alive, now is the time." "He's waiting for you in the trophy room." "I've turned my guns off so you can come back." "The game is not over yet." "He's coming back to us, Karen." "But did I detect a note of concern for MacGyver?" "We can't afford a major incident like a multiple VIP murder." "Look, my orders are to retrieve a piece of intelligence, not to carry out your damned blood feud." "I give the orders, my girl." "And I'm ordering you to the trophy room." "You can get the roll of film from Thornton there." "Now get going, before MacGyver gets there." "But Thornton's not gonna give it to me." "He won't object." "I've given him the shock of his life." "Now go on, girl." "Right." "He's dead." "Electrocuted." "He's not dead." "Oh, my God." "I thought..." "She's still the same." "They'll both be all right if we get them help in time." "Yeah." "MacGyver, I know you would've gotten away." "It's all right." "I changed my mind anyway." "If I get away, Quayle gets away." "And I want him." "Let's go somewhere where we can't be seen or heard." "Quayle's got the house rigged electronically from the main power line, which is probably in the basement." "I saw some vinegar here." "Yeah." "Now, if we can cut or control that power line," "Quayle goes deaf, dumb and blind." "He loses his edge." "MacGyver, what the hell are we doing?" "Making some preparations." "MacGyver!" "Thank you." "Now, you wanna tell me if Quayle hired you locally, or were you assigned to him?" "It was an assignment." " How did you know?" " Well, first of all, you were a little too quick and cool getting me out of that hit, and the hit men didn't even try to follow." "Secondly, you took one look at Pete from across the room and assessed that he had been electrocuted." "You're very quick, MacGyver." "Not quick enough to save Pete from a pretty good jolt." "You could have killed him, you know." "I was told no killing." "Only that we would get the film back." "Why draw the line at murder?" "Quayle doesn't." "I didn't know that." "I've never worked with him before." " I told you, they assigned me." " For how much?" "How much money they giving you to betray your country, huh?" "Money?" "It's not..." "I wouldn't do it for money." "Look, I have never done anything like this before." "Oh, please." "Don't tell me you're one of those political..." "They've got my brother!" "He works for Mr Thornton too." "For the company." "But he was on an assignment in Czechoslovakia and he got caught." "And they said they would kill him." " Unless..." " Unless you cooperated." "Worked for them." "There's another way, Karen." "You don't have to give in to their blackmail." " But my brother, he's my only family." " Help me catch Quayle." "We'll use him as a bargaining chip." "Trade Quayle for your brother." "What if they won't?" "Then I'll go in and get him." "Personally." "You would do that for me after everything?" "Will you help me?" "What do you want me to do?" "Well, I think we should start by forcing Quayle out of his electronic fortress." " How?" " By unplugging all his gadgets." "We gotta get to the power room in the basement." "Let's go." "He could be anywhere." "Or everywhere." "You thought I couldn't track you, MacGyver." "Well, we all make mistakes." "This one is, I'm afraid, fatal." " Quayle." " Goodbye, Karen." "I'll try to arrange a posthumous medal." "Watch the moving dot." "Whatever it touches, it kills." " Damn!" " Closer and closer." "I could hit you at any time." "These are your last moments." "So enjoy them." "My daddy used to say, "You can't hit what you can't see."" "A smoke screen." "That won't save you." "Now we're invisible." "Okay, follow me." "Come on." "The back stairs where Quayle can't see or hear us." "Damn!" "MacGyver!" "Karen!" "There really is no escape." "MacGyver, I know where Quayle is." "He's down that corridor to the right." "His control room is down at the end." "The door is steel." "He's got a lot of security and weapons." "All right." "Maybe it's time for him to come out and play." "Hey." "I got an idea." "Let's make an early-warning system." "It'll let us know when Quayle's on the way." "And what makes you so sure Quayle's gonna leave his control room?" "It's the only way to get to the power room, right?" "Well, if we can cut off his electricity, he's bound to come looking for us." "Easy." "What are you gonna do?" "Invite the man to a party." "Rusted junk, machinery?" "I don't get it." "Line it up, Karen." "Sort of casual clutter." "What are you doing?" "Those wires look like spaghetti." "Well, I traced all the heavy wiring into Quayle's fortress." " So?" " I'm gonna punch his lights out." "Keep stacking that junk." "If Quayle comes in here, he's gotta walk forward only one way." "How's this?" "Perfect." "Primrose path." "Pull that cabinet over too, will you?" "You know, I sure could use a mirror." "Think you could find me one?" "Yeah, just what I wanna do is look in a mirror right now." "Okay, okay, I'll go find a mirror." "That's perfect." "That's just what we need." " So now we've got a mirror." " Yeah, sort of." "Come here." "Stand right here." "Don't move." "Oh, I see." "So you're making a periscope so we can see Quayle, right?" "Yeah, that's right." "Without being seen." "Why?"

"The human heart is a giant muscle squeezing or contracting over 60 times each minute." "That's 3,600." "At this point, your blood is a deep purple because it's just finished dropping off oxygen for all the parts of your body." "Come on, follow me." "Come on." "Ian." "I have a question, and I need to go to the bathroom." " Which would you like to do first?" " The question." " Okay." " Where's the bathroom?" " Who knows where the bathroom is?" " I do." " Go with Ian to the bathroom." " I don't have to go." "We're not at school, nobody goes anywhere by themselves." " Why?" " In case you get lost." "Or in case somebody kidnaps us." "If somebody kidnaps Ian, they'll kidnap me, too." " I want to stay with the class." " Michael, go with Ian..." " Do you need help?" " I need you to find a grown-up." "Is the baby coming?" " Who should I take with me?" " You're fine." "Go to the front desk or find a security guard." "I really have to pee." "Oh, God." " Is the baby coming?" " I don't know how to do this." " Are you okay, Ian?" " Yeah." "Sure." "I don't think you are." "You're bleeding." "Help!" "Help!" " $20." " Call." "You'll call anything." "My stack is bigger than your stack." " You in or out?" " You know that relative to their size, gorillas have smaller testicles than humans." "Well, then you'd probably have an edge over a gorilla, but not over me." "Reason is, primate testes' size inversely corresponds to the fidelity of our females." "You think there might be a better time to annoy me about my wife?" " I'm talking about poker." " Right." "Women are evil, you're right to drive them away." "Call, fold or raise." "Story time can wait." "We're smaller and better than chimps, bigger and worse than gorillas." "For all our rationality, our supposed trust and fealty to a higher power, our ability to create a system of rules and laws, our baser drives are more powerful than any of that." "We want to control our emotions, but we can't." "If we're happy, things don't annoy us." "If, on the other hand, we're sitting on crappy hole cards, little tiny things annoy us a whole lot more." "I raise." "So, are you gonna tell me an annoying story every time I raise?" "God, that would be annoying." "I call." "Dr Cuddy, I got one of your patients in the ER." "Ian Alston, six-years-old." "Oh, I know him." "What's the problem?" "I'm all in." "Bloody diarrhea." "Hemodynamically stable, but he's been developing some coordination problems." "It sounds like gastroenteritis and dehydration." "Order fluids and I'll take it on my service." "Bet's to you, House." " They scan his head?" " No, why would they scan..." "Don't play games." "You gonna call?" " How's the heart rate?" " Stable." "I'm sorry." "House, it's gastroenteritis." "I'm not going anywhere." "Put the order in, and have someone tell Alan and Sarah that I'll be up when I'm done." "You in or out?" "I'm out." "Stone cold bluff." "You might want to spend a little more time paying attention to your cards and a little less time staring at my breasts." "They don't match either." "I'm gonna take some air." "Follow my finger with your eyes." "How much longer will Dr Cuddy be?" "Well, given the number of Mojitos she's knocking back at the party," "I'd say it's gonna be at least three hours before she's even conscious." " Weren't you at the same party?" " I don't drink." "I want you to reach out and grab my cane." "What's wrong?" "Your son's brain is losing control of his muscles." "Dr Cuddy's message said it was just dehydration from diarrhea." "She's wrong." "Is he gonna be all right?" "I don't know." "So, were you in one of those cages?" "No." "No, no, no, no." "No, those are for tourists." "You were in the water with the great white?" "Sure, it's no big deal." "You just have to keep an eye on them." "If they get too close, punch them in the nose." "Send them on their way." " I had you going." " You are mean." "Hey." "How's that anal fissure?" "Did it heal yet?" "Or is it still draining?" "Oh, I'm sorry." "I didn't realize you'd come back for seconds." "I figured that after that girl in the stairwell you'd be done for the night." "He's joking." "No Adam's apple, small hands." "It's no surprises this time." "I'll see you later." "Got a case." "Well, you could've just said that." "You didn't have to screw with me." "Yeah, if I didn't screw with you, you'd spent the whole night thinking you might get laid, which means you'd be useless." "Better to extinguish all hope." "Get Foreman and Cameron and meet me upstairs." "Stat." " What's so urgent?" " Two cases, same symptoms." "What do six-year-olds and 70-year-olds have in common?" "Their immune systems don't work as well." " Could be listeria." " I already checked for that." "Leukemia has a higher prevalence in both young and old." " So does asthma." " No, no, no." " They can both get diabetes." " No!" "The nearly dead and the newly bred have more in common with each other than with people in the middle." "It's weird." "It's kind of a circle of life thing." " This kid doesn't have kidney failure." " He will." "Based on this file, the kid just ate some bad food." "Was the old man..." "They were nowhere near each other in any of the four dimensions." " This case is 12 years old." " Yep." " And this case is Cuddy's." " She assigned it to me." "She agrees with you that this is something more than gastroenteritis?" "She wouldn't have assigned it to me if she didn't, would she?" "What were we talking about?" "Two patients with two symptoms in common." "And five symptoms not in common." "While you were all wearing your "Frankie Says Relax" t-shirts," "I was treating a 73-year-old woman who went through this progression of symptoms." "The last of which was..." "And in case any of you missed that class in med school, that one's untreatable." "Kid's got the first two." "It took Ester an hour and 20 minutes to go from two to three." "And less than a day to make it all the way to the rear exit." "This is all because a child has some blood in his diarrhea?" "He's got a tummy ache." "If there was any reason to think it was anything worse," " Cuddy would be all over it." " Great." "Do a colonoscopy." "On a six-year-old kid who probably has nothing worse than food poisoning?" "And if you happen to find any purple papules, do me a favor and grab a slice." "I wanna check for Erdheim-Chester." "A disease that there have been, what, maybe 200 reported cases of ever?" "If Ester's family had let me do an autopsy, there'd be 201." " See anything?" " No, and I don't expect to." "House usually avoids cases." "If he's actually stealing a case from Cuddy, there's gotta be a reason." "It's not the first time I've seen this file." "About a month before Cameron was hired, some trucker came in here with these symptoms." "House decided he was dying." "Two days and a spinal tap, bone marrow extraction, and three colonoscopies later, we send the guy home with a bunch of painkillers and a diagnosis of a bad cheese sandwich." "One of the guys who worked here before me said House tried to cure Ester at least three other times." "You know how people see the Virgin Mary in danishes and stuff?" "Someone died 12 years ago and House doesn't know why." "House sees that case now in paint peeling, in clouds, and now in this poor kid." "Erdheim-Chester is an abnormal growth of some of the cells that fight infection." "Is that cancer?" "'Cause he seems okay now." "The other doctor kind of scared us about that." "He shouldn't have." "We're just testing." "It'll probably be negative." "I don't understand." "You don't think that's what it is but you want to do this thing to him anyway?" " We need to be sure." " Isn't there any other way?" " It shouldn't take long." " All right." "Those ridges look a lot like purple papules." "They're not purple." "They're red." "Probably just blood blisters." "Give me the biopsy needle." " How long is this gonna take?" " Forget it, Chase." "Your punching out the shark story's good, but she's not waiting for you." "So?" "We couldn't confirm the source of the bleeding" " but we did biopsy some..." " Blood blisters." "You mean papules." "Come on, Cameron." "Who's right?" "Chase is." "Negative for Erdheim-Chester." "Let me see." "If it's not Erdheim-Chester..." "It's exactly what we said before, a garden-variety viral gastroenteritis." " Can we go back to the party?" " Do a kidney biopsy." " Ester's shut down in exactly..." " This kid is not Ester." "You screwed up." "She died." "I'm sorry." "But that does not mean this kid is dying as well." "Jeez, you're testy when you don't get any fuzz." "Come on." " What'd the test say?" " Colonoscopy was clean." "And the biopsy was negative for Erdheim-Chester." "So Ian's going to be all right?" "It was just some sort of virus." "What's that?" " Urine." " But it's brown." " Ian's kidneys are shutting down." " Still think it's not the same case?" "So, what can cause bloody diarrhea, ataxia and kidney failure?" " I'll go do a biopsy." " Forget it!" "That battle's over." "His rising creatinine is his kidneys' way of saying," ""Go on without me"." "What explains everything?" "E. coli HO-157 causes bloody diarrhea and leads to Hemolytic-uremic Syndrome." "Toxins from the bacteria cause his kidneys to shut down." "We should start him on plasmapheresis." "Clear, concise, and completely plausible." "And exactly what I did last time." "Didn't work." " What else?" " Goodpasture's Syndrome." "Circulating antibodies cause kidney failure and bleeding." "But not the purple papules." "If you throw in Ester's next symptom, brain, makes me think heavy metal toxicity." "His hematocrit would have to be low." "It's at 44," " and Ester's never dropped below..." " 42." " You have the file memorized?" " It's my lucky number." "What about lymphoma?" "Causes kidney failure, GI bleed, and can infiltrate the base of the brain." " You check Ester for that?" " She never showed any signs of..." "If he has lymphoma this far advanced, we should be able to see it in his blood and brain." "Chase, run a blood smear and immunochemistries." "Foreman, get an MRI." " I'll page Cuddy." " No, you won't." "She thinks the kid has a stomachache." "Then she'll come right up here and do one of two things." "If she agrees with me, I don't need her." "If she disagrees, I don't want her." "You can't handle people disagreeing with you?" "She might have a different take on this." "Subordinates can disagree with me all they want." "It's healthy." "People who can shut me down on the other hand..." "Forget Cuddy." "I'll have Wilson keep her busy." "Keep your answers short and discreet." "ls Cuddy still playing?" "The chicken is still in Piccadilly Square." "Brilliant." "She'll never suspect that Normandy is our target." "Is that House?" "Tell him that the blinds just went to 20-40 and he's running out of chips." " How's she doing?" " What's going on?" "The way you took off, something's obviously..." "Love to chat but got a game to play." "How's she doing?" "The patient is on life support." "We're about to pull the plug." " Are you talking about me?" " What've you got?" "Those sounds like high-dose cardio meds." " Two hearts." "You got the flush?" " Still waiting on the final labs." "ls she drinking her seltzer?" "No, hydration is not a problem." "She's bluffing." "Push her all in." "Call." "Two pair." "Show me your hearts." "Seven of clubs." "Oh, dear." "Sounds like I messed up." "You're gonna be stuck with her for a while." "Talk to you soon." "Oh, yes!" "Why are you taking a picture of his head?" "We're looking for lymphoma but..." "So, it's not Erdheim-something and it's not his kidneys, but his kidneys are failing Where's Dr Cuddy?" "Dr House mentioned another case." "Is there another patient with the same thing that Ian has?" " Not exactly." " What does that mean?" "Dr House had a patient a while back who exhibited the same symptoms as your son." " Then you know what's wrong?" " No." "So what do you know?" "We know the likely course the disease will take." "Which is?" "She had multiple system failures affecting..." "What happened to her?" "She died 24 hours after her admission." "Mr or Mrs Alston, would you mind giving me a hand?" "He's having trouble sitting still." "It's impossible to get the detail we need." "So I figured he might feel more comfortable hearing your voices." "Ian, honey." "Just sit still." "They'll be done in a moment." "We're here with you." "I'm scared." "It's okay, honey." "It's..." "It's only a big camera." "It's gonna take a picture of your head." "You love it when I take your picture at home, don't you?" "Yeah." "And you have to hold still for that, too, right?" "But this isn't like that." "I know it's scary, Ian, but you can do it." "You're getting to be so grown-up." "So just hold perfectly still, just for a little bit." "Mommy, are you crying?" "No." "No, honey, I'm just tired." "Okay." "I'll try." "The base of his brain's been infiltrated by a small mass." "We think..." " Pituitary?" " Looks that way." "Explains the low blood pressure." "And pretty much confirms the lymphoma." " If we'd started Ester on prednisone..." " Did anyone see the lymphoma?" "No, we saw a mass." "The location is consistent with..." "Didn't see any in the blood either." "White blood cells show no spindling or abnormal nuclei." "Nothing on immunochemistries either." "It's not lymphoma." "House!" "It's a train." " We don't know what kind of train..." " Whoa." "Whoa." "Whoa." " I'm thirsty." " It's closed." "It's not now." "We got one advantage." "We know where the tracks are going." "The fact that the end of the line is death is an advantage?" "The fact that we know is an advantage." "It means maybe we can get ahead of it." "Next station is the liver." "We got about 90 minutes before it gets there." "Maybe we can cut down a tree across the line just outside of town." " I'll do an ultrasound." " No, treatment will tell us more, faster." "How can we start treatment if we have no idea what we're treating for?" "Treat him for everything." "Give him acetylcysteine, and interferon, and silymarin, and whatever else you can think of to protect the liver." "What's going on?" "Oh, just catching up on some TV." "How're you doing?" "Well, thanks to your last consult, the patient has improved dramatically." "Tell House the patient is about to kill the doctor." " She says the patient..." " I heard." " What've you got?" "Well, Cuddy just raised and..." " You're paired." " What?" "Nines." "How do you know?" "Anything lower, you wouldn't sound so excited." "Jacks or higher, your voice sounds like Debbie from accounting is sitting in your lap." "Ask Cuddy if she can beat a pair of threes." "Wait." "What's going on?" "If you're gonna mess with me, wouldn't it be more fun to do it in person?" "Yes, it would." "Can you beat a pair of threes?" " What'd she do?" "I left orders for PO fluids, Doctor" "Enough with the codes." "She obviously knows it's me." "She's drinking her seltzer." "Did she stop?" " Yes." " Go all in." " But..." " Just do it." "You couldn't care less about this charity event." "You claim not to be messing with me." " You're either trying to keep me..." " Shut up." "Look, last time I wanted the game to go on." "I still do." " It means that this time you get to win." " Hold on." "I fold." "House, are you sure you're okay?" "Meds seem to be working." "Liver's holding its own." "Good." " But the platelets are dropping." " Even better." " Why?" "It means he's getting sicker." " It's new." "New is good." "Because old ended in death." "I can't breathe." "Chase!" "What's happening?" "Ian, come on." "Honey, just relax." "Ian, breathe." "Come on, honey." "Please." "Please, honey." " We had to put him on a ventilator." " He's back on Ester's path and we managed to make the train skip a few stations." "Which means that instead of 12 hours, he's probably got less than two." "Which begs the question, why?" "What did we do?" "Acetylcysteine could mess with the lungs." "Mess with them, not shut them down in 20 minutes." "Interferon modulates the immune system." "It could affect a cancer of the blood, like one of the leukemias." "It doesn't speed them up." "It slows them down." "It slows down all 500 of them?" "Anybody know where we can find an oncologist at this hour?" "What effects would interferon have on leukemia?" "Depends on what type." "Could make it better." "Could make it worse." " A four-year fellowship to learn that." " Tell House if he wants to play cards, he can get his ass back down here and play." "You hear that." "She wants me off the phone." "Means she's vulnerable." "Go all in." "But the party's over in less than three hours." "Its over in less than two hours, which means you either have three of a kind or just threes." "I'm guessing threes." "I bet $500." " Go all in." " You obviously want to bust me." " Why would you..." " Either you go all in, or I tell everybody in the building that you wear toenail polish." "I'm all in." "I'll call." "I'm betting you have a pair of threes, but even if you have three, it's not gonna beat trip nines." "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh, no!" "Oh, no!" "Oh!" "Oh, that's gotta hurt." " What happened?" " I just killed two birds with one straight." "Goodbye." "Fine, keep playing" "But I need you to recommend a good oncologist because if I don't get one up here in the next few minutes," "I got a dead six-year-old." "If you need help, ask." "These games are insane." "The games have a higher success rate." "Well, I don't see anything that looks like leukemia." "You do a bone marrow biopsy?" " No time." "Even if there is an occult blood cancer, you wouldn't expect interferon to make it worse." " Certainly not this fast." " What would move this fast?" "Autoimmune diseases." "If his body's own defenses are attacking him, then beefing them up is just gonna put fuel on the fire." "Sarcoidosis could be in his brain and lungs." "No." "No enlarged hilar lymph nodes on his chest x-ray." "The systemic nature suggests Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis." "Or Kawasaki's Disease." "Can't be Kawasaki's." "That doesn't affect the elderly." " This is a kid's x-ray?" " House had another patient." "Who may or may not have had Kawasaki's." "This kid on the other hand, he makes antibodies that are eating the inside of his arteries, choking off blood to his major organs, one by one." "First the GI tract, then the kidneys, then the brain, now the lungs." "Can anyone think of a reason why Kawasaki's can't affect the elderly, other than that it doesn't?" " Nice." "We can confirm with blood work." " We need an ANA, sed rate..." " Labs will take two hours." " What was the old lady's sed rate?" " Elevated, 98." "You can't use another patient's labs to diagnosis Kawasaki's disease." " Is that like a dare or something?" " You don't have time to be wrong." "Fine." "We'll look for Kawasaki where he lives," "Ian's coronary arteries." "This other patient, the old lady, Ester?" " Have you read Moby Dick?" " It was a book?" " It was ten years ago." " Twelve." "Obsession is dangerous." "Only if you're on a wooden ship, and your obsession is a whale." " I think I'm in the clear." " You do realize it's a metaphor." "You do realize that the point of metaphors is to scare people from doing things by telling them that something much scarier is gonna happen than what will really happen." "God, I wish I had a metaphor to explain that better." "Go back to the game." "Don't worry, I'm not gonna get eaten by witches." " Coronary arteries clear." "No aneurysms." " Flip the mode." "Let's see the flow." "How did that other woman die?" "She went into respiratory distress." " Her heart and liver were already..." " No." "Did she suffer?" " Was she in pain?" " I don't know." "Laminar flow." "No blood clots, no ragged edges." "Damn." "Shut it down." "We're just wasting time." "Look at the right atrium." " That's not Kawasaki's." " No." "It's small, but it's there." "Ester didn't have a mass in her heart." "Ian's younger." "He can take more of a pounding." "Ester died before the disease reached her heart." "The disease made a mass and made it fast." " Could be bacteria." " Muscle." " Connective tissue." " The kid can't take any more theories." "Only thing we know is that whatever that mass is, that's what he's got." "We need a piece of it." "I'm doing a biopsy." " I'll shut the blinds." " No, let them watch." "I do my best work on the big stage." "Passing through the superior vena cava." "You're in the atrium." "Pull back." "You've hit the wall of the heart." "These procedures would be so much simpler if you could do them on healthy people." "And out again." "V- fib." "Cardiac arrest." "Call a code." "Come on, paddles!" " Come on." " Charge." "Clear!" "Code blue, ISO room." "And again." " Nothing." " Again." "You got a clock on this?" "How much longer you gonna keep doing this?" "Clear." "Wait." "I've got something." "He's back." " What are you doing?" " I'm doing what we came here to do." " It almost killed him." " I know." "I was right here." "I need a Vacutainer." "His brain's been oxygen deprived for over eight minutes." " There might be nothing left." "He might..." " Tell the parents." "Where the hell is that Vacutainer?" " So, what's he got?" " Brain damage." "Good chance." "I was talking about before that." "You're not worried about..." "Things I can't do anything about?" " I try not to." " Yeah." "Things just roll off you like water off a duck." "Histiocytosis." " Very unlikely in a 73-year-old." " Whatever this is, it's very unlikely." "Come on." "More ideas." "Let's go, people." "Genetic disorders could cause masses everywhere." " Tuberous sclerosis." " If it's genetic, he's had it all his life." " Why now?" " I don't know." " It sure fits nice enough." " We haven't ruled out leukemia yet." "Or sarcoma." "He could have multiple soft tissue tumors." " Or sarcoidosis." " Multiple neurofibromatosis." "Chondrocytomas." "How's it going?" "You win?" "I got called away by the angry parents of a patient." "There are three of you here." "None of you had the sense to stop him, to pick up a phone and call me." "I told them you'd signed off." "The parents are mad because their kid is dying." "It's understandable." "But if he doesn't die, they won't be mad anymore." "Well, if he's brain damaged, they might still be a little ticked." " Had to do it to save him." " You had to do it to diagnose Ester." "You may have killed a six-year-old because you're obsessed with a woman who's been dead for 12 years." "Sometimes you lose, House!" "You're not God!" " He's not dead yet." " No, but you're done with him." "It's my case now." "Go home." "Go ride your motorcycle." "Go brood in a dark room." "Just don't go near Ian again." "So, anything else or is it just these seven?" " Drop it, House." "She's right." " No, she's not!" " You know she's not." " We should have called her." "I'm surprised you didn't." "You're gonna have to find a way to let this go." " We can't go near Ian." " We don't need to go near him." "We have his tumor." "Well, Cuddy may be right that we screwed up the protocol." "She may be right about my screwed up obsession." "But I'm right about the medicine." "How many tests can we do with that?" "Look, we cure the kid, we solve everybody's problems." "How many?" " Maybe two good pieces." " How many okay pieces?" "Three would be pushing it." "Three tests, seven choices." " Okay, what's first?" " Sarcoidosis seems most likely." "Yeah." "So likely that Cuddy's gonna think of that all on her own." "She's got the kid's whole body to play with." "Let her do that test." "What's next?" "It's moving too fast to be spreading." "It has to be growing from something that's already there." "Genetic disorder." "Tuberous sclerosis." "Or it's his immune system." "Histiocytosis." "Well, there are more documented cases of Histio amongst older people than tuberous sclerosis." "Let's start with that." "Wing or drumstick?" " Gonna need a little more than that." " A little more is more than a third." "If we have to repeat this test because you didn't cut us enough..." "I'm adding one micro liter of the immunoperoxidase." "Make it two." "I don't want House biting off our heads because we weren't sure if it turned red or not." "That's definitely not red." "The problem could still be an abnormal cell growth" " but a different cell line." " Sarcoma?" "Muscle cells are throughout his body." "It would explain the geography." "Genetic disorder is far more likely in a six-year-old." "Tuberous sclerosis." " Pretty unlikely to cause a GI bleed." " The time course fits." "Mr Foreman, you agree with both of them?" "Thanks for playing." "If we have enough tissue for two tests, why not do both?" "Then we don't have to think as hard." "Taking the pressure off the choice makes us less likely to think critically." "Sarcoma is more likely to hit a six and 70-year-old." " Tuberous sclerosis, it is." " You think sarcoma is less likely?" "It's more likely." "The test for it, on the other hand, is less reliable." " Test is negative." " Well, that's okay." "If the tumor cells haven't matured, the Ki-67 protein wouldn't have turned off." " What happens if we don't solve this?" " Kid dies." "I mean for the next 12 years." "Ki-67's negative." "And PCH antigen is negative." " Mighty Casey's down to his last strike." " Mighty Casey struck out." "Thanks a lot." "I was gonna read that this weekend." "Chondrocytoma." "Connective tissues been in all the places we've been looking." "The kid is too sick for that." "We're better off testing for sarcoma." "We would've seen signs of that when we tested for tuberous sclerosis." "The tumor cells looked like muscle under the microscope." "No, they didn't." "They looked like fat." "I vote for neurofibromatosis." " Why?" " Because the other choices suck worse." "Give me a minute." "You want me out of here?" "You come up with anything?" "No." " Hey." " We can talk about it tomorrow." "I..." "I won the poker tournament." "I totally played this guy, Berman, from business affairs." "I got great cards." "But I don't bet." "Just call, no raises." "Berman pairs his king on the flop." "I keep calling, the river turns," "I check." "He can't stand it." "He goes all in." "He's sure he's won." "I call, I flip them." "Pocket aces." "I nailed his ass." "The aces were hiding all along." "Test him for Erdheim-Chester disease." "Erdheim-Chester?" "That's not even on the list." "Because we already did it." "He tested negative." " So did Ester." " The disease lied." "Yeah, the tumor's got it in for you." "Diseases don't lie." "Fine, it didn't lie." "It slow played us." "We biopsied the colon, it hadn't reached the GI tract yet." " It's there now." "It's in his liver, his lungs." " You want it to be there." "Because then you didn't screw up 12 years ago." "We can't waste our one test on the one disease we know it's not." "Run the test." "You sure about this?" "Wait." "Let me think about that." "Don't pressure me." "Just run the damn test." " Cells look like macrophages." " That's a good start." "Take your time, and say it loud." "CD 68 positive." "Start the treatment." "So, Ester can rest peaceful now, huh?" "Yeah." "$40." "You got lucky." "You gonna call?" "What I do is not just based on the flip of a card." " You guessed." "You got lucky." " It fit." "It could just as easily have been sarcoma or tuberous sclerosis." "No, not just as easily." "Maybe not." "But it wasn't impossible." "Are you gonna call?" "You know, relative to its size, the barnacle has the largest penis of any animal."

"Data, we need to install that plasma conduit." "We're bringing the new warp core on line." " I will go to deck 20." " I'll meet you in Engineering." "This ought to be a lot of fun." "Excuse me." "Do you have authorisation to work in this area?" "You are dismantling a warp-plasma conduit." "I must ask you to stop." "Be quiet." "**Captain's log, stardate 47225.7." "Cmdr La Forge has completed the installation of our new warp core." "We are preparing to test its capabilities." "Something wrong, sir?" "I've just got a message from Starfleet Command." " Bad news?" " You could say that." "I've been invited to the annual Starfleet Admirals' Banquet." "My condolences." "I managed to avoid it for six years, but now my luck has run out." "I can't think of anything more tedious." "50 admirals shaking hands, making dull conversation, uninteresting food, boring speeches." "Can't you think of some excuse?" "After six years, Number One," "I don't think I have any excuses left." "Geordi, have you ever had a nightmare?" "Yeah, sure, everybody does from time to time." "I have had 111 dreams since I discovered this program nine months ago." "In all that time, I have never experienced such disturbing imagery." " I believe it was a nightmare." " Nightmares are part of dreaming." "Maybe you've discovered another level to your program." "Perhaps." "I note I am spending an inordinate amount of time thinking about nightmare imagery." "One could almost say I am preoccupied." "It's normal." "Sometimes, after a nightmare," "I can't shake that weird feeling for days." " Cmdr La Forge." " Speaking of nightmares." " I've recalibrated the EPS module." " That's great, Ensign." "Thank you." "Just like you said." "Reset the power tap and the module came on line." "You have a wonderful grasp of engineering principles." "I'm learning so much just being around you." "I'll tell you what." "Help Farrell check out the deuterium cartridges." "I'm bringing the warp core on line." "Anything you say." "You do not seem to appreciate Ensign Tyler's enthusiasm." "Yeah, she's enthusiastic, alright." "About me." " I do not understand." " She's got a crush on me, Data." "You do not share her affection?" "Exactly, and frankly, it's beginning to get a little bit uncomfortable." "I believe I understand." "You are concerned about unintentionally hurting her feelings." "Yeah, something like that." "It would appear that you require a third party to intervene." " I will speak to her." " No, Data!" "I'll take care of it myself." "Thanks." "Geordi, when I first awoke from my nightmare, there was a moment..." "Bridge to Cmdr La Forge." "What's our status?" "We're ready to bring the new core on line, Captain." "Alright." "Let's do it." "Initialising deuterium-infusion sequence." "It's a thing of beauty." "Isn't it?" "Now let's see how fast she can run." "La Forge to bridge." "Warp power at your discretion." "Acknowledged." "Ensign Gates, set course for Starbase 219, warp six." "Engage." "Bridge to Engineering." "Why isn't my ship moving?" "I'm on it, Captain." "There's a warp-plasma conduit out of alignment." "But I think I've got it fixed now." "Ready, sir." "Very well." "Ensign Gates." " Mr La Forge?" " Stand by, Captain." "Captain, I am taking the warp-coil engines off line." "La Forge to bridge." "Sorry, sir." "We'll have to refigure this plasma conduit." "It's gonna take at least a couple of hours." "Enter." " Hello, Data." " Counsellor." " What are you doing?" " I have been watching Spot sleep." "In 15 minutes, he has had 12 muscle spasms." "He was dreaming." "I have often wondered what Spot dreams about." "His twitching and rapid breathing would seem to suggest anxiety." "But Spot has never seen a mouse or any form of Rodentia." "He has never encountered an insect or been chased by a canine." "I understand you've had some interesting dreams recently." "Geordi was worried." "He wanted me to check how you were doing." "That was thoughtful of him." "I have debated whether to initiate another dream sequence." "Because of the nightmares?" "I have found them to be quite unsettling." "Data, you shouldn't be afraid of dark imagery in your dreams." "It's a natural expression of your unconscious, if you have one." "I'm not sure how your positronic brain works, but if it's like ours, then a part of you is trying to express itself through dreams." "You should allow yourself to experience it." "As Sigmund Freud said, dreams are the royal road to the knowledge of the mind." "Thank you, Counsellor." "I will initiate a dream program now." "Let me know how it goes." "Goodnight, Data." "Goodnight, Counsellor." "Goodnight, Spot." "Computer, dim lights." "Delicious." "What cake are you eating?" "It is a cellular peptide cake with mint frosting." " Would you like a bite?" " No, thank you." "Excuse me, Mr Worf." " Aren't you going to answer that?" " Sir?" "That damned ringing." "Answer it." "Yes, sir." "Please identify yourselves." "I must ask..." "Be quiet." "Please, don't hurt me, Data." " I am sorry, Counsellor." " No!" "Don't." "No." "Data!" "Data." " What is wrong?" " We've been trying to wake you." "When you didn't show up, I got worried." "My internal chronometer was supposed to wake me 35 minutes ago." "You must have overslept." "That is not possible." "Something is wrong." "I can't find anything wrong with your internal timebase." "Your primary systems are fine." "I will compare my logs with the ship's chronometer." "Perhaps we have overlooked something." "You know, there's a lot we don't know about your dream program." "Maybe it was designed to cause side effects." "For all we know, Dr Soong might have intended you to oversleep." " It's part of the human experience." " It is a possibility." "But I want to make sure there are no anomalies in my neural nets." "You know, I'm curious." "What were you dreaming about?" "I have not fully assimilated its impact." "I would prefer to study the images before discussing them." "Sounds like it must have been strange." "Strange is not a sufficient adjective to describe the experience." "Tell me more about this cake." "It is difficult to explain." "Counsellor Troi's body was a cake." "Her upper body." "Describe the knife you used to cut the Counsellor." "It had a black handle and serrated blade." "And it was quite long." " How long?" " 25 centimetres in length." "And what happened next?" "One of the workmen pointed to her right shoulder." "At that moment, I had an overwhelming urge to cut a piece out." " And did you?" " Yes." "As I began slicing the cake, she reacted as though I was causing her pain." "Yet I could not stop cutting." "That is when I woke up." "Dr Freud, I am curious..." "I am curious." "What do my nightmares mean?" "I believe you are experiencing a classic dismemberment dream." "Or, in your case, being a mechanical man, a dismantlement dream." "I do not understand." "Your mechanistic qualities are trying to reassert themselves over your human tendencies." "Ego and id, struggling for domination." "The workmen symbolise the ever-present id constantly working to destroy the ego." "The image of Counsellor Troi, a female, is devoured by you, clearly indicating an unconscious desire to possess your own mother." " But I do not have a mother." " Do not interrupt." "The knife, in its violent connotation, suggests a certain feeling of sexual inadequacy." "But I have no sexual desire." "Impotence on top of everything!" "It is all becoming clear to me now." "There might be a paper in this." "I do not believe I am being helped by this session." "Classic transference." "Your anger towards me is, in fact, the animosity you feel towards your father." "You are a polymorphously perverse individual, Mr Data, and I recommend full psychoanalysis." "I believe I can fit you in next Tuesday." "That will not be necessary." "Computer, end program." "Captain, incoming message from Admiral Nakamura." "On screen." " Admiral." " Captain." "We were expecting you this morning." "Is there a problem?" "Actually, we have been experiencing a few difficulties with our new warp core but my chief engineer assures me we'll be under way within the hour." "You're not trying to avoid this engagement, are you?" "No, no." "Certainly not." "I'm really looking forward to it." "Good." "I'll expect you soon." "Nakamura out." "I think he's on to you, sir." " La Forge to bridge." " Go ahead." "We've just started up." "All systems are holding steady." " Ready when you are." " Ensign Gates." "Set a course and engage." "Engineering, report." "The warp field has collapsed, sir." "It looks like we've blown the entire power converter." "Impulse engines are down, too." "We're not going anywhere." "But I know how to fix this." "Two, three hours, tops." "Talk about going nowhere fast." "Mr Worf, open a channel to Starbase 219." "Advise Admiral Nakamura I'll be a little later than I thought." "Aye, sir." "Tyler, how is the relay diagnostic?" "Almost done, sir." "Excuse me, I need the plasma inverter." "Ensign Tyler still has a crush on you." "You did not speak to her." "Data, I haven't had the time." "Listen, take this brace coil and run a metallurgical scan." "See if there are any microfractures." "Something wrong?" "I am reminded of a recent dream." "This brace is reminiscent of..." "Are you going to answer that, Commander?" "What are you waiting for?" "Answer it." "Hello?" "Kill them." "You must kill them all, before it's too late." "Data." "What's wrong?" "I do not know." "Everything seems to remind me of the nightmare." "Objects, sounds, smells..." "Now I have seen elements of the dream in a waking state." "I cannot explain it." "Data, if you were a human patient, I might be concerned right now." "I'd say you'd had a waking dream or a hallucination." "But you're not human." "I think it might be a technological problem." "I have run three complete self-diagnostics." "All of my systems are functioning normally." "Perhaps Dr Freud was correct." "The knife embodies my unconscious desire to inflict violence." "Data, even Freud said, sometimes a cigar is just a cigar." "But the bottom line is, you're developing an obsessive interest in your inner workings." "I'd almost call it the beginnings of a neurosis." " That is not possible." " Why not?" "You've eliminated all the technical explanations." "It makes sense that as your neural net becomes more complex, more human, you might experience the same psychological complexities as a human." "Do you really think so?" "Data, you must be the first person in my office excited at the prospect of a new neurosis." "But, yes, it is possible." "I'd like to start counselling you regularly." " Daily?" " No, we'll start weekly." "As a first step, I'd like you to shut down your dream program, just to be safe." "Give yourself a chance to reflect on this experience." "Thank you, Counsellor." "I look forward to our next meeting." "Data." "Next time, see me before you see Sigmund." " Admiral, I can explain..." " Let me guess." "Your new warp core is malfunctioning again?" "Unfortunately, the problem has affected our impulse systems." "At the moment, we are adrift." "Are you expecting to fix this soon, or shall we send a tow ship to bring you in?" "That is not necessary." "I have confidence in my engineers." "I will be at the banquet on time." "Picard out." "Have you reconfigured the plasma conduits?" "Yes, Captain." "Two hours ago." "What about the relays?" "Are you certain you don't need a new phase inverter?" "I am running a level-three diagnostic." "We will have the results in ten minutes." "I see." "Perhaps I could refigure these isolinear chips." "No, sir, please don't touch that." "Captain, Cmdr Data and I have the situation under control." "If you let us take care of it, it would go faster." "Captain, we could use an extra hand moving the containment pods." " If it wouldn't be an imposition." " No, I'd be delighted." "Good work, Tyler." "I thought he'd never leave." "Data, give me a hand with this plasma conduit..." "Data?" "Deck 36." "Hello, Data." "Are you alright?" " What are you doing?" " Hold very still, Counsellor." "No!" "Ever since you gave Alexander that music, he's been playing it all night, every night." "I just wanted to broaden his horizons." "He likes it." "It is screeching, pounding dissonance." "It is not music." "Worf, it's better than music, it's jazz." " Medical emergency, deck 17." " We're on our way." "I believe I had another waking dream, sir." "But this time, I had an uncontrollable urge to eliminate the image." "And what you saw was some sort of mouth on Troi's shoulder?" "Yes, sir." "For a reason I cannot explain, I had the need to destroy it." "Did you see a mouth on my head as well?" "No." "I saw a straw coming from your head." " A straw?" " As I said before, these are all images I experienced in my dream program." "I do not have a rational explanation." "Mr La Forge?" "We've run every possible diagnostic on Data's positronic net." "We can't find anything wrong." "I could run a subpolymer scan but it would take time." "Make it so." "In the meantime, Mr Data, I'll have to relieve you of duty and confine you to your quarters." "A sensible precaution, sir." "Data." "Deanna, you're in sickbay." "It's alright." " Data..." " He's not here." "Try to relax." "This pad healed the wound but you've lost a lot of blood." "I would like you to lie still." "That's odd." "There shouldn't be any discoloration after treatment." " This looks like a rash." " What is it?" "I'm picking up cellular degradation." "But it doesn't appear to be related to the lacerations." "There's also some kind of residual interphasic signature." "Nurse." "Bring me an interphasic scanner." "I want a closer look at this." "Commander." "I will have to confiscate your side arm." "Of course." "May I ask a personal favour?" "Yes." "Will you take care of Spot for me?" "Your animal?" "I am afraid if I have another waking dream, I might injure him." "Of course." "Spot, come here." "Unlike a canine, Spot does not respond to verbal commands." "Goodbye, Spot." "He will need to be fed once a day." "Feline supplement number 25." " I understand." " And he will require water." "And provide him with a sandbox." "And you must talk to him." "Tell him he is a pretty cat." "And a good cat." "I will feed him." "Perhaps that will be enough." "Captain, we have a problem." "Look at this." "Her tissue is breaking down on a cellular level." "It's spreading." "At first, I thought it was a rash from the coil brace." "But when I used the interphasic scanner, I found this." "What is it?" "The question is, what are they?" "I've tested all the medical staff." "I found them on almost everyone so far." "The cellular decay is accelerating in all cases." "I haven't found a way to stop it or even slow it down." "Looks like you're infected, too." "The organisms are attached to our epidermal layers with osmotic tendrils." "They tap directly into the bloodstream." "And from what I can tell, they're spreading." "What are we dealing with?" "Are these creatures feeding on us?" "Yes, in a very particular way." "They extract our cellular peptides." "It's analogous to the way leeches consume haemoglobin." "If they're not removed soon, our bodies will lose their cellular cohesion." "We'll collapse into nothing but a few pounds of chemicals." "Alright." "Is there any way that we can affect these organisms?" "We've tried EM radiation, subspace fields, thermal protons, nothing's worked." "They seem to exist in some interphasic state just beyond our visual and sensor acuity." "We can only see them with an IP scanner." "Tricorders can't see them." " Do we know where they came from?" " I scanned the vicinity." "There was no sign of similar creatures or any unusual interphasic activity." "What about Mr Data?" "There must be some connection with his odd behaviour." " Is he infested as well?" " I scanned him but I found nothing." "Data attacked Troi because he saw a mouth on her shoulder." "It was in that same area that we first saw one of the organisms." "Data saw a straw in my head." "Beverly discovered an organism there." "Those images are all part of Data's dream." "Maybe somehow he's unconsciously perceiving these creatures." "Perhaps it is time we took a closer look at Mr Data's dreams." "It is an interesting hypothesis." "If I am being affected by these interphasic creatures, it may also explain my waking dreams and my antisocial behaviour." "We want to link your neural net to the holodeck and activate your dream program." "As you dream, we can observe the dream images." "Perhaps we can learn about these creatures by interpreting your dreams." "I see." "The concept is similar to directed dreaming." "Exactly." "How soon can you have the link ready?" "We need an hour to establish the parameters." "Make it so." "In the meantime, Mr Data, I suggest that you prepare for bed." "I think we're ready, Captain." "The link is active." "The holodeck has been calibrated to Data's neural net." " Ready, Mr Data?" " Yes, sir." "Normally, I would wish you pleasant dreams." "But in this case, bad dreams would be more helpful." "I understand, sir." "Initiating dream program." "Stand by." "Let's be very observant." "Even the most insignificant image could be important." "Right." "Here he comes." "Hello." "Can we speak to Data, or would that wake him up?" "He perceives us as part of his dream." "Anything we say will be taken in that context." "That sounds like a telephone ringer but I don't see a receiver." " Cake?" " Thank you." "Look at that." "Her right shoulder." "That's where Data stabbed her." "In his waking dream, there was a mouth on her shoulder." "They are both symbols of consumption." "Mouth, food." "Mr Data, what cake is this?" " It is a cellular peptide cake." " With mint frosting." "Cellular peptides." "That's what the creatures are extracting." "Will someone answer that damn ringing?" "Captain, the ringing is getting worse." "What could the ringing symbolise?" "A bell." "A sound." "An old-fashioned way of communicating?" "Do you want some?" "It's delicious." "Will someone please get that?" "Yes?" "It's for you." "Picard." "Kill them." " Kill who?" " Kill them, before it's too late." " Who is this?" " I am Dr Sigmund Freud." "How does he fit into all this?" "If I were to interpret my own appearance in this dream," "I would say I am the symbolic representation of Data's unconscious mind trying to warn him about the dangers he perceives around him." "The interphasic organisms?" " Of course." " Tell me, how do we kill them?" "Answer it." "Nein." "Do not be so literal." "When I say answer it, I mean respond to it, to them." "Be quiet." " What do they represent?" " I don't know." "But I do recognise that junction they're working on." "It's the plasma conduit we installed with the new warp core." "Respond?" "Respond to them?" "What does that mean?" " What is it that you're doing?" " Go away." "Leave us alone." "Who are you?" "We are your enemies." "Stop." "You must not hurt my friends." "Be quiet." "Data, the shrieking noise you made causes them pain." "Be quiet." "I believe I understand." " Geordi." " Yes, Data?" "Adjust my positronic subprocessor to emit an interphasic pulse." "Data, what's going on?" "The workmen represent the organisms trying to demolish this ship." "The incessant ringing of the telephone, Dr Freud's cautions, were warnings of the dangers." "What about the shrieking noises?" "My subprocessor detected interphasic signatures from the organisms, which were symbolically represented by a high shriek." "When you made those noises, the workmen reacted in pain." "That is why I asked Geordi to adjust my subprocessor." "If I can produce an interphasic pulse, it may affect the creatures." " We're ready." " Picard to sickbay." "Beverly, we're going to sweep the ship with an IP pulse." " Will you monitor the creatures?" " Understood." "It's working." "Captain's log, supplemental." "The creatures infesting the Enterprise have been eliminated." "We believe the infestation originated within the warp core we obtained on Starbase 84." "This conduit was made on Thanatos Vll using an interphasic fusion process." "That process attracted the organisms to the conduit, where they lay dormant in the warp core." "The core wouldn't go on line because they disrupted the plasma flow." "How long before warp power?" "We have to manufacture a new conduit." "That's six hours' work." "Six hours?" "The banquet will be over by then." "Very unfortunate." " I can speed things up a bit." " No." "I wouldn't want to sacrifice the safety of the ship." "Understood, sir." "Enter." "Counsellor." "I did not have a chance to apologise." "Data, don't worry about it." "Geordi explained everything to me." "It wasn't your fault." "But somehow, I thought turnabout would be fair play, so I made us a little something to snack on." "I wonder..." "What would Dr Freud say about the symbolism of devouring oneself?" "Data, sometimes a cake is just a cake."

"This programme contains some strong language." "What are you doing?" "What the bloody hell does it look like?" "This is unlawful imprisonment." "See that lad down there?" "Do you think he's a terrorist?" "I remember her eyes." "Really pretty eyes she had." "Sort of...green." "Can you keep a secret?" "It was a boy dressed in women's clothes!" "Your face!" "Farid Sardar was an illegal immigrant from Afghanistan." "There'll be people fighting to adopt him." "We're in." "We're on the list." "Dad, we're accepted!" "Thanks be to God, we're going to have a baby!" "Khalil!" "I said leave me alone." "Run!" "Luke." "Is that what Ross' dad does for a living now, nicks copper wires?" "You stay away from that lad, do you understand me?" "You'll have to get used to me, Laurie." "MOBILE RINGS" "Dad?" "Dad, your mobile's ringing." "Dad?" "Shut up and go back to bed." "PHONE RINGS" "Shut that bloody thing up!" "Hello?" "'Is your dad there?" "'" "No, no. 'Put him on, please.'" "'That's Ross, isn't it?" "'" "BANGING ON DOOR Police, open up!" "Open this door now." "Don't let them in, Ross!" "It's the Police." "Open this door or we are coming in, do you understand?" "MUFFLED SHOUTING" "Ross!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "That's it." "Hey, come on, we've got to go." "Give us your hand." "Come on." "Well done!" "I warned you, didn't I?" "I kept up!" "Yes, you kept up really well." "Can we do some more?" "Another time." "Hey, look, you must be starving now." "Yeah!" "Go on and get changed." "I'll be with you in a minute." "Putting me into care?" "It's just for today, Ross." "Just while we're talking to your dad." "Hey, look at me." "Be one of the good guys today!" "Where is it?" "!" "I know it's here somewhere." "Shall I ring it up for you?" "No, I swear it's got little invisible legs." "There it is, bloody thing." "OK." "I'll see you later." "What about your toast?" "Love you!" "Oh, that girl!" "Oh, and Mum..." "Yes, I know, put a sock in it, because walls have ears." "Oh, and careless talk costs lives." "Oh, I say!" "You're cheerful this morning." "Shall I not expect you for your tea?" "Bye!" "Mmm!" "'Jen!" "Pick up, love." "Pick up!" "'I'm still here." "Come on, love!" "Jen!" "Jen!" "'" "Hello?" "Oh, Gerard, I'm so sorry." "I completely forgot." "Oh, I don't know which way's up this morning." "'Don't you worry about it, lass." "'Has she gone?" "'" "Yes." "Those bosses of hers are slave drivers." "So I've got a lot on today." "I mean, more than usual." "So I don't want any phone calls about you, all right?" "You're staying put, Yeah?" "OK." "You know what will happen if you don't, don't you?" "Yeah, you'll tear me limb from limb." "So you promise me, then." "I promise." "Go on, you better get off." "I'll take that." "Give us a kiss." "You're joking?" "!" "Yeah, go on." "Go on." "Morning, Luke." "How are you?" "Morning." "Morning." "You all right?" "Morning." "You OK?" "You're late." "Where's my DI?" "How should I know?" "So that wasn't you and him I saw getting into a taxi last night, then?" "Oh, don't get your hopes up, any of you." "I never shag policemen." "I'm a lesbian!" "CHEERING AND APPLAUSE" "# Lola L-O-L-A, Lola" "# I said Lo... #" "Half the Muslim community has already taken its bat home on this job, so you can all stop arsing around and start taking this reconstruction seriously."

"For God's sake!" "Now tell me, there's no such thing as bad publicity." "It's my job to get you into the papers, remember." "This didn't come from the press office."

"Are you OK?" "I tossed and turned a bit." "But, yeah, still here." "Didn't happen to me, did it?" "Not like it happened to my driver." "Morning!" "Gerard." "Don't mind me" " I'm just here to help." "Did my mother put you up to this?" "You know what you want to do, Laurie?" "You should try them new detention centres." "You know, where they have the asylum seekers and the illegal immigrants and whatnot." "You'll find we've done that." "And asking round the Asian parts of town, cos, you know, I bet they're keeping shtum about this." "Yes, Gerard, we've done that too." "We've not been completely asleep all week." "Just a few ideas, like." "Cos your mum tells me that you're getting absolutely nowhere yet." "Sorry I'm late!" "Child care, you know." "But I'll get off after them now." "There's no shame in it, Mal, if you want to pull out of this job." "I don't." "No shame in it, not in your situation, not these days." "It won't happen again." "In your next life, find yourself a woman who likes stopping at home baking Eccles cakes." "Yeah, when they start making them like that, I will." "Who's playing the bloke in a burka?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Can we have a name?" "Is he a volunteer?" "Did we nick him?" "Dug him out first thing." "Going to charge him with the copper thefts later on today." "What about Ross?" "Managed to get your son's dear little friend into care without losing the use of my other leg." "He's fallen in with a bad crowd there, sir... if you don't mind me saying." "WOMAN:" "Ross?" "Ross!" "WHISTLE BLOWS" "DC Laurie Franklin." "Can I ask you a couple of routine questions?" "Do you travel on this service regularly?" "Excuse me." "You and your mother were the only ones who got on at that station, though, weren't they?" "I'll just be a moment." "Can I have a quick word with you?" "We're just finding witnesses who haven't already come forward, just jogging memories." "Look, Gerard, it's procedure." "It's what we do on the anniversary." "Of a week, it's not a year anniversary, it's what we call it." "Hmm." "Desperate is what I call it." "Hi." "DC Franklin." "You were on this train last week?" "Beasts are getting restless." "They'll have to wait for the train like the rest of us." "Get everyone back behind that tape, please, until we're ready!" "Right behind!" "Do you travel on this service regularly?" "Train takes me to college, innit." "Day release, for my NVQ." "So I'm always on this train." "Do you remember the incident last week?" "I remember panicking about being late for college." "I never saw nothing in the papers about it, and then, to be fair, I never read the papers." "Nothing in them, is there?" "Laurie." "Excuse me." "Here we go." "Feeding time at the zoo." "Bit nowt nor blooming summat, that were." "Not if it jogs someone's memory." "Got any more questions for me, then?" "No, you're all right, love, thanks." "All right - that's it, everybody." "Thanks very much." "So, see you tonight, then." "My turn to cook." "Oh, great." "Bye!" "Thanks." "Got you out of the office, anyway." "You just learn to deal with it." "Sometimes you only need a tiny thing, though, just one little detail." "Hey, isn't that...?" "What?" "!" "She were on the train last week." "Hey!" "Wait!" "Sorry." "Sorry." "Are you OK?" "Oh, God." "Be careful running off like that - you'll break your bloody neck." "What's it to you?" "Leave me alone!" "Why are you chasing me?" "Hang on." "Why are you running away?" "Some mad woman came at me on a platform, that's why." "Do you have receipts for all these..." "Kimberley?" "It's Rowan." "Proof of purchase?" "Is it a regular thing, is it, shoplifting trip on a Thursday?" "Sometimes we go to the Trafford Centre instead." "Where is she today, your friend?" "I don't see her." "Not seen her since she met that bloke on the train." "She's always been the same, the minute some bloke turns the corner, she's off - no time for her mates." "Oh, and he's "the one" this time, she texted me, but she always says that, so..." "My mum says that's the end of her clubbing and alcopop days." "What?" "Cos he's a Muslim, obviously." "MOBILE BEEPS" "I checked the file." "It said two years ago, Jamal Matthews walked away from a charge of malicious wounding, because all the witnesses all took flight." "Gang thing?" "He's not a player, apparently - just a horrible little bastard who fancies himself." "He still does." "It's just my bad luck he was the only person on the train who actually saw owt." "Thanks for meeting us, Mr Matthews, I expect you remember me from the train last week?" "What I remember is you behaving in a rude and disrespectful manner to me." "OK, thanks for agreeing to see us anyway." "And now you want to disrespect the whole community." "An English policeman in a jilbab?" "What's that all about?" "Are you determined to offend us?" "As I told you on the phone..." "And as I told you, I didn't see nothing - it was just a flash." "If we're going to have any chance of finding the family of this young Muslim boy..." "You're not interested in finding anyone's family - you're just trying to sniff around, harassing us, thinking the worst of us, looking for bombs in each and every corner." "Yeah." "I know about your agenda," "And I know about "preventing violent extremism"." "As I said to you, I've got nothing to say." "So can you get out of my way, please?" "I prefer helpful people." "Come on, I'll introduce you to one." "I can offer moderately strong support for the proposition that this shoe was worn by this foot." "There's the beginning of a Hallux valgus there." "That's a bunion to you, my darling." "Although I'm sure your mother never let you wear those kind of shoes." "This is my colleague, DC Franklin." "Charming." "This has an overlying fifth and other technical stuff." "The shoe's a seven or a seven and a half." "Obviously it came off with some force, because the laces are still tied." "But that's not my area of expertise." "We'll get a knot analysis done." "One question for you, though." "This dead boy of yours does have two feet?" "He did, yeah." "I seem to have only one poor lonely trainer." "When we find the other one, we'll let you have it, all right?" "So, how's the family?" "Oops." "Have I said the wrong thing?" "No." "Luke's fine." "We're fine." "All right?" "Thanks." "Luke!" "Luke!" "Come out here now!" "Luke!" "I know you're in there." "Luke!" "Luke!" "Come out here now!" "BABY CRIES Shh." "His first name was easy" " Michael, suits him." "But the responsibility of choosing someone a surname..." "A family name for someone who hasn't got a family." "Is he all right?" "Yeah, he's just a bit girny today." "You did well, Colly, you know?" "Michael Summers is a great name." "Makes him sound like some darling wee hippie." "I've been asked more than once when we're going to get him circumcised." "Oh, for God's sake." "Shush, Nick!" "It's not going to happen." "Not yet, anyway." "He's just a little baby, and the one good thing about this whole situation is that he can decide who he wants to be, without any bloody mullahs..." "or priests or rabbis sticking their..." "Sorry." "Not enough sleep." "Can you hold the fort?" "Your current dad is a total dinosaur!" "We'll have to get you a better one, won't we?" "Yes, we will." "Nick?" "Nick!" "Michael!" "What happened?" "He just... .." "Ambulance." "'It's exactly a week since a young Muslim asylum seeker...' There she is!" "LAUGHTER AND WHISTLING" "'Today a male police officer dressed like the victim in traditional female clothes...'" "He'll be doing panto at Christmas."

"Are you the police lady?" "Yeah, I do my best." "Only the man on the phone, he were laughing." "I thought, "I don't want him laughing at me." Cos they're my neighbours, you see, love."

"You see, they both went out together on the day that lad went under the train." "It were weird, and I haven't heard a peep out of them since." "This is me." "And that's them." "Now you're standing here, do you remember any names?" "No, love." "It's not neighbourly round here like that, not any more." "She did have a smile for you, like." "The older one." "She did a bit of cleaning up, too." "I will say that for her." "It was her who put these bits of flowers and whatnot in." "Are you going to break in?" "No, I am not." "Maybe they left a key."

"Criminals do seem to share each other's shoes a lot." "Odd, that." "And one's rather smaller than the other." "Like...a man and a woman?" "I can offer only limited support for that proposition." "But when you get that knot analysed, see if they think he tied his own laces or whether somebody else tied them for him." "Are you still there, Mal, or am I talking to myself?" "'Hello!"

"That's just for you, that is." "That's a Class 66, better than the 60." "I knew there'd be numbers involved somewhere." "You see them doing that, don't you, at the station." "The trainspotters." "Writing numbers down in those..." "What are they called?" "What are those things?" "Notebooks." "Notebooks." "Yeah." "Women always find that a bit sad." "Is that what your wife thought?"

"I'll call you tomorrow." "Thanks, Pat." "Shit!" "I told you I was just round the corner." "I'll buy you a drink." "No, we have to do it properly." "We need to talk in a proper manner and record a statement and that." "We can't do that now." "I'm not making a move on you, if that's what you think." "Of course not." "I will do if you want." "Just get a grip, please, Mr Dowling." "That's just it, I can't!" "I can't get a grip and I just can't keep it all in any more." "I'm going out." "Khalil's just fed up with himself for not having a job and having to crash on our sofa." "Whose fault is that?" "A year tooling about in Pakistan reciting the Qur'an, that's a great way to raise your chances of employment." "My dad couldn't get him into the mosque when we were kids." "Look, Danny." "I'm afraid of him, all right?" "I'm afraid of my little brother." "I really don't think Khalil's a terrorist." "I mean, he's useless." "Who'd have him?" "I'm not saying that." "He's just a spoilt little brat." "I know, it's just that he seems to be so serious." "I'm just worried about him" " I don't know what is going on inside his head." "I did a terrible thing today." "When Felicity asked "Who's that," I thought," ""Oh, God, he's going to come out with all his Sharia law nonsense - astaghfirullah." ""And how adoption's all wrong." "They'll take fright and that'll be the end of us adopting our baby."" "So..." "I denied him." "God forgive me, I denied Khalil was my brother." "Dad?" "Hey, brother." "Hey." "Soraya." "I used to see her quite a lot." "Once a week, if I had the overtime." "You know, you hear the girls say, "Oh, he's really lovely, all he ever wants to do is talk to me."" "Well, it weren't like that for us." "The sex was like nothing I'd ever had in my life, and I never got tired of her." "This were the Asian girl?" "People think, "Oh, Asian babes," you know, "sweet and submissive."" "But she'd have argued the hind legs off a pit bull." "And she had dark eyes." "Not really dark, more sort of green." "So, what happened to her?" "I don't know." "One day she never showed up." "Six months ago, it were." "And that were that." "It was like the waters just closed over her head." "There's only one thing I'm interested in, Pat." "Was Soraya pregnant?" "She were a bit old for that kind of caper." "What?" "I thought she was a teenager?" "She were 40-odd." "I mean, I've tried some of the younger girls, like, but..." "Did she do drugs?" "How would I know?" "Because we weren't friends, were we?" "If we'd have been friends, she wouldn't have disappeared on me." "Left me hanging." "But they never really let you in, the bitches." "No matter how much money you give them or how well you treat them, they still never really like you." "Do you really think you saw her up on the bridge, Pat?" "The worst thing is..." "I think I didn't brake immediately." "I can't be sure, and it's doing me head in, but I think I went for her." "And she'd have fucking deserved it." "You won't believe the conversation I've just had." "Mother of all verbals." "Totally inadmissible, so it's a good bloody job I'm not investigating a murder, isn't it?" "Sod off, I'm a police officer." "That was me being kerb-crawled." "In me mack!" "Boss?" "You still there?" "Talk about all the buses coming at once." "That Nick bloke tried to pull me tonight." "What's all that about?" "You OK?" "What, now?" "I've never been much good at first times." "Well, it's a good job there's always second times to look forward to." "There's still a lot to look forward to, Jen, love." "We're not dead yet." "Would you like to come in?" "I'd like that very much." "Hey." "Are you OK?" "Oh, hiya." "So, what's that called?" "What?" "That expression on your face." "That's my sympathetic face." "I can put it away just as fast." "Listen..." "I suppose a fuck's out of the question?" "Well, you buy me a pint... ..then ask me that again." "Do you have any idea what's really happening out there?" "There's no way they can find out about Khalil." "It's still possible there's an innocent explanation." "What's your real interest in Farid Sardar?" "I think this is a terrorist job, and no-one's telling me anything." "I heard what she said to you this morning and I'm asking you the same question my daughter did." "Terrible thing about your job." "Makes you suspicious of everyone." "We'll throw everything we can at it until we find whoever was on that bridge with him when he jumped." "Or was pushed." "Where's Pat this morning?" "Rang in sick." "Never known him do that." "Must be at death's door." "How come you get to ask questions and I don't?" "What's your real name?" "Subtitles by Red Bee Media Ltd" "E-mail [email protected]"

"By connecting with the original Avatar," "Korra learned that to stop Unalaq she must close the spirit portal before harmonic convergence, which is only weeks away!"

"What are you doing here?" "And how did you know where to find us?" "Tenzin's itinerary." "We went over it like a hundred times before we left Republic City." "See?" "This is why schedules are important." "It's so great to see you all again." "It's great to see you too, but why aren't you training at the South pole?" "Wait, you don't know about the civil war?" "What?" "No." "We've been out of touch with the outside world since we started our vacation." "Tenzin's idea." "What happened?" "So much." "I don't know where to start." "Just tell us everything!" "Everything?" "Okay." "I opened a spirit portal at the South pole, but then Unalaq turned out to be a bad guy and wanted to take control of the South, so I sort of started a civil war, but when I went to find some help," "I was attacked by my cousins and then by a giant, dark spirit, and then I forgot who I was, and then I met the first Avatar, and then I realized" "I shouldn't have opened the portal in the first place, and now I need to close it again!" "I knew this would happen." "So Avatar wan imprisoned this dark spirit Vaatu in the spirit world?" "Yes, and now I think my Uncle is trying to free him." "I knew Unalaq was hungry for power but never realized how far he would go to get it." "This is all my fault." "No, don't blame yourself." "This is Unalaq's doing." "Now, we must focus on setting things right before he can do any more damage." "Thank you." "So you need to close the Southern portal, but if Unalaq's army controls the South, how are we going to get to it?" "I thought about that." "My best chance to close the portal is from the inside." "I have to enter the spirit world." "A journey to the spirit world." "All my years of spiritual training have prepared me for this moment." "I will help you." "Today, we enter the spirit world." "Father, what are we doing here?" "You're here to straighten out the mess you caused when you failed to capture the Avatar." "I told you, it wasn't our fault." "You're right." "It was my fault for trusting you." "Harmonic convergence is almost upon us." "This is my opportunity to change the world." "We'll make it up to you, father." "Good, because I'll need your help to open the northern portal." "I thought only the Avatar could do it." "I believe there is another way." "This way." "There it is:" "The northern portal." "Cut!" "Okay, that's lunch, everyone." "Hello?" "Anyone?" "Nuktuk's still up here, all alone." "Asami!" "Hey, what are you doing here?" "Varrick invited me to watch some of the filming." "Are you filming right now?" "Right now?" "Nope." "We're, uh..." "We're at lunch." "Asami, there you are." "Is Bolin around?" "Up here." "Good." "I've got something to tell you both." "Ow." "I got to stop doing my own stunts." "I found out who's been stealing from future industries:" "Varrick." "What?" "No." "He attacked his own ship?" "Yes!" "It was a ploy." "He wants Republic City to go to war, and he wants control of the businesses that stand to profit the most from it." "He already had all the shipping." "All he needed was future industries." "Varrick helped save Future Industries." "He's my business partner now, not an evil mastermind." "Mako, you seem stressed." "I am stressed!" "See, this is why I had to move out." "You guys aren't living together anymore?" "Nope." "It was time for this eagle-hawk to spread his wings and fly." "Sounds like you've had a pretty busy week." "Maybe you just need to relax." "Wait a minute." "Are you two... you're dating again!" "What?" "Dating?" "No!" "That's crazy!" "Korra just left a week ago!" "Guys, listen to me." "Varrick is up to no good, and I have proof." "The detonators he uses in his movers are exactly like the one I found at the cultural center attack." "And those explosions were exactly like the ones the Captain reported when Asami's shipment was hijacked." "Don't you see?" "Anyone could have gotten their hands on one of those detonators." "Yeah." "Let it go, Mako." "Let it go." "No!" "I'm not going to let it go!" "Varrick's been looking for you." "You're lucky." "This temple is the most spiritual of all the air temples." "Why, this very garden is where my father met Guru Pathik." "Wow!" "Spirit world, here we come." "Are you in the spirit world?" "I would be if Meelo could ring his bell at the appropriate intervals." "Aww, did I do it wrong?" "Let's try something else." "I thought your bell ringing was just fine." "Thanks!" "Kya, this is too much smoke." "You set it up wrong." "This isn't going to work." "I'm sorry." "I did what you told me." "Well, the moment's ruined." "We could have tried a little longer." "Come back, furry-foot!" "Hey, Jinora, what are you chasing?" "Nothing." "Focus, Korra." "Focus." "I am focusing." "No talking." "Feel the energy of the universe." "Okay, I feel it." "Korra, really!" "I'm trying to concentrate here!" "I don't think this location is going to work either." "What's going on with you?" "First, you're blaming Meelo, then Kya, and now me." "Well, nothing is feeling right to me." "I don't want to rush your feelings, but we're kind of in a hurry." "How did you first get into the spirit world?" "Let's try that." "Well..." "Actually, I've never been into the spirit world." "You've never been into the spirit world?" "But you used to spend days in the temple meditating." "Trying to get in." "It never happened." "It's my greatest shortcoming as an airbender, spiritual leader, and son of Aang." "Welcome to the "I disappoint dad" club." "If you've never been to the spirit world, how were you planning to get Korra into it?" "I've spent years studying the techniques and theories of ancient spiritual leaders." "Now that the Avatar needs me, it must be my time." "Tenzin, harmonic convergence is almost here." "If Vaatu escapes from the spirit world... you have to trust me." "I can help you." "There might be another way." "Jinora, is there something you want to tell Korra?" "Jinora?" "She is too young and untrained to have any knowledge about spiritual matters." "Actually, I think I do know where Korra needs to go to get into the spirit world." "And how would you know that?" "My spirit friends showed me." "It's okay." "You can show yourselves." "How did you do that?" "Jinora." "Bunnies!" "Actually, they're dragonfly-bunny spirits." "I knew it." "Looks like she does know something about spiritual matters." " So cute." " Bunnies!" "Come back!" "How long have you been able to do this?" "I don't know." "I guess I've always kind of had a connection with spirits." "I think this one likes me." "Are they here to help?" "I think they want you to go down there." "I don't know." "The spiritual energy is historically strongest near the temple." "No offense, but I'm guessing the spirits have actually been to the spirit world, so I'm gonna follow them." "If we need to go to the Tenzin world, we'll call you." "Father, haven't the spirits had 10,000 years to open this portal?" "If they could not succeed, what makes you think we will?" "By entering the spirit world through the portal, we bring with us something the spirits never had:" "Our bending." "Join me!" "Together we can open this portal." "Desna!" "Leave him." "Keep bending!" "He needs a healer at once!" "This is more important!" "I'm taking him back." "I hear you've got some ideas." "You wanna tell me about them?" "Go ahead." "Torture me all you want." "I'm not gonna talk." "Torture?" "The only thing I want to torture is this pesky foot fungus." "Ooh!" "Ah!" "Eee!" "Ooh!" "The burning means it's working." "I heard you've been investigating the recent attacks on my ships, and I think you know that I know that you know, you know?" "Know what?" "That the world is a dangerous place, and that's exactly why I want to offer you a job on my security force." "I have a job." "We need you." "Me, asami, Bolin." "We're all on the same team here." "We want you to join us." "You wouldn't want anything to happen to asami, would you?" "I mean, I heard you and her were kind of an item again." "Or what about your brother?" "What are you saying?" "I'm saying I want your help to protect them." "Without you, who knows what could happen." "Thanks for your concern, but the answer is no." "Oh, you are just so cute." "I'm going to name you Bum-Ju." "It's short for "Bumi, Junior."" "Don't you think he looks like me?" "The resemblance is uncanny." "I think dad's mad at me." "Your father's not mad." "His pride's just a little bruised since he isn't able to see spirits like you." "You have a natural gift." "That's pretty lucky." "You're the lucky one." "You actually got to meet the first Avatar." "I know about a lot of Avatars, but I don't know anything about him." "Is it even a him, or is it a her?" "It's a him, Avatar wan." "He was amazing." "I saw how he became the first Avatar by fusing with Raava, the spirit of light." "The Avatar is part spirit?" "Of course!" "Just like the statue!" "What statue?" "When we were at the Southern air temple," "I was drawn to this old carving." "I couldn't figure out what it was until now." "It was the first Avatar." "When did this happen?" "It was on the solstice." "That's the day I opened the Southern portal." "Whoa." "We're here!" "Are you sure these spirits are leading us to the right place?" "Of course!" "I trust Bum-Ju with my life." "Look." "There are carvings on them." "This is an ancient airbender meditation circle." "There's a lot of spiritual energy in this place, but it feels really strange." "We'll have to perform a spiritual cleansing ceremony." "What are you talking about?" "Dad taught it to me." "This site has been neglected for many years." "A cleansing ceremony will help strengthen its connection to the spirit world." "Good job, you cleansed the area of the only spirits that want to help us, and you scared away Bum-Ju." "It's working." "Boom!" "Ah!" "Bats!" "Evil bats!" "Not bats." "Dark spirits!" "What are we supposed to do?" "Amazing." "Your spiritual training has come a long way." "Unalaq may be a horrible person, but his spirit powers are no joke." "He taught you how to transform dark spirits." "I can't even get you into the spirit world." "Everything Unalaq taught me was to help himself." "Everything you've done was meant to help me." "I am so sorry for turning my back on you as my mentor." "I need you now more than ever." "I won't let you down." "The ancient airbenders must have built this site." "If we meditate here, we'll be able to enter the spirit world." "Why don't you go first?" "After all these years, my father's dream for me will finally come true." "Hi." "Did you come by to tell me how paranoid I am?" "No." "I just wanted to come by to make sure you're okay." "You seemed so agitated earlier." "I'm fine." "Maybe you need a night off." "Why don't we go get some dinner?" "No, thanks." "I'm a little busy." "Too busy for Kwong's cuisine?" "Remember?" "We had our first date there." "Maybe I do need to get my mind off things." "Police!" "Hey, Mako." "Hope we didn't interrupt you two lovebirds." "What's going on?" "We busted some triple threats who said you hired them for a job." "All right." "It's true." "We were trying to figure out who stole Asami's stuff, so we hired them for a sting operation." "I'm sorry for going behind your back." "According to the triple threats, you did more than that." "They said you helped them steal a warehouse full of future industries property." "That's crazy!" "You're gonna believe a bunch of criminals?" "I have to follow up on a lead." "Well, looky what I found:" "Cash..." "And these." "What are you doing with explosives, Mako?" "I don't know where those came from." "You're under arrest." "None of that is mine." "Should've known you'd hook up with your old pals." "Once a triple threat, always a triple threat." "This has to be a mistake." "Sorry to break the news to you, sweetie, but your boyfriend's just a crooked cop." "That sting operation was just a way to lure you away from your warehouse." "He was using you the whole time." "That's not true, asami." "I would never do anything to hurt you." "It's Varrick." "This is all Varrick." "He set me up!" "Yeah, it's Varrick's fault." "Varrick." "Varrick." "You in the spirit world yet?" "No, I am not, and stop bugging me." "It's okay, Tenzin." "Maybe you weren't meant to guide Korra into the spirit world." "No!" "Just give me some time." "Stop being so stubborn." "It's not your destiny." "I think Jinora was meant to guide the Avatar." "Jinora will not enter the spirit world!" "She's not ready for the dangers of the other side, but I am." "I've spent years training, studying, and mastering everything there is to know about the spirit world." "Tenzin, we're running out of time." "If everyone could just be quiet and let me focus." "Aunt Kya is right." "I can guide Korra into the spirit world." "I'll be all right." "Perhaps I will never have the connection with spirits like I always wanted..." "Like my father wanted me to have." "It's okay, daddy." "I'm proud of you." "Go." "Close the portal." "We'll wait here and keep your bodies safe till you return." "We'll be all right." "The spirit world." "The Avatar is dead, and we cannot open the northern portal." "I have failed you, Vaatu." "You have not failed me..." "Yet." "The Avatar still lives." "How do you know?" "Even though my connection to Raava was severed," "I can still feel her presence." " I'll find her." " The Avatar will find you." "She has just entered the spirit world."

"As far back as 1938, the director of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover, wrote to the then-curator of the Jeffersonian Institution," "Professor Daniel Payne, to aid in the evaluation of specimens Hoover thought to be irrefutably human." "This was the result." "Despite this early disagreement, the FBI and the Jeffersonian have forged a mutually beneficial, if someone tense relationship, which survives to this day." "Thank you." "Thank you, Dr. Brennan." "Are there any questions?" "Yes?" "How much money have you made from your book?" "I don't really know." "I haven accountant and an agent..." "That's not really the kind of question we're looking for from an anthropology student." "Yes?" "Did you get your agent before or after you wrote the book?" "People, Dr. Brennan is an accomplished forensic anthropologist who writes books on the side." "I have a question regarding the role of the FBI in your book." "Who do you base brilliant and insightful" "Special Agent Andy Lister on?" "Oh, for God's sake." "'Cause, you know, pretty sure it was me." "What are you doing here, Booth?" "Local police got an anonymous call saying that there were human remains in a field behind a mall out in the suburbs." "I did an anthropological profile of the suburbs as a grad student." "The whole notion of a created community; a modern utopia with its own mores and rules-- it's fascinating." "Fascinating to who?" " To whom." " Whom..." "You gotta be kiddin' me." "What?" "My publishers gave it to me." "Gave it to you?" "Yeah." "Book sales are pretty good." "It's supposed to be a nice car." " Gave it to you?" "!" " Yeah!" "Well, why'd you park crooked?" "Well, the guy said to always park it like that." "He's wrong." "Makes you look like an idiot." "How about I drive for once?" "No, I cannot show up at a crime scene in that." "Why?" "!" "Because it would detract from the gravity of my FBI presence." "Especially if you parked crooked." "Why is the FBI involved in the search for human remains behind a suburban mall?" "'Cause this boy is missing." "A child." "Yeah!" "Anonymous call came in a couple hours ago." "No sign of him yet." "How do you know it wasn't a prank?" "You have to come right away!" "There's, like, a dead kid here, all ed arotty!" "It's in a field behind Clayton Hills Mall." "you better come!" "That ring is true." "Why anonymous?" "Kids come here to party, misbehave..." "Adolescents and pre-adolescents tend to seek out their own space to establis their own society;" "to counter parental influence." "You mind if I make an observation?" "No, of course not." "In your book, the cops come off as very one-dimensional." "Why is that?" "You mean two-dimensional." "One-dimensionality exists only in theory, as a mathematical value." "Okay." "Really looking forward to your next book." "PDid you bring the thermal imager?" "I don't think we need it." "It mak me look like e Great Gazoo." "I don'know what that means, but we definitely need it, Zack." "How's it going there, Darth?" "Anything on Saturn?" "Aw, please tell me you've seen at least one Star Wars movie." "When I was seven." "And leave Zack alone." "Can we please hurry up?" "It's stuffy in here." "I should be able to see any heat residue released from decomposing bodies." "Party Central." "Because suburbs are so homogeneous, adolescents tend to rebel in predictable and uniform ways:" "Fire, ilcit substances, wayward behavior..." "You think that wayward behavior would include abducting a six-year-old child?" "That's pretty extreme." "Adolescents are more likely to drink alcohol and listen to culturally inappropriate music at high volum" "I'm picking something up." "Oh, my God..." "What?" "Why'd you stop?" "You can turn on your flashlight." "Aim it over here." "Bones 1x05 A boy in a Bush" "Trancript: cfsmp3 Sync:" "Narkond" "Before proceeding with maceration, any general observations?" "Zack?" "Epiphyses fusion puts the age at approximately six to ten years though the stature suggests younger." "Good." "I concord." "Cause of death?" "Blunt trauma to the chest." "Are you all right?" "He... he's so small." "That's all." "Go on with your work;" "I'm okay." "The remains were significantly degraded by insect and animal activity-- mostly dog and rodent." "Despite the condition of the body, he's been dead only 36 and 48 hour" "These were found a few yards from the body." "Noce thatithey are in perfect condition." "What does that tell you?" "The victim wasn't wearing them when he was killed." "Which suggests he was sexually assaulted." "I'm done." "I think we have a match." "The clothing matches." "It's Charles Gregory Sanders." "On behalf of the FBI, we're extremely sorry for the loss of your son." "And I have a few questions, I mean only if you're up to it." "You have two other sons?" "Foster sons...though I try not to make the distinction." "Sean and David Cook." "They are brothers." "I live right next door." "Charlie was your own?" "Yes..." "Charlie was mine." "What about Mr. Sanders?" "We divorced shortly before Charlie was even born." "He works overseas." "He doesn´t even send child support." "You mind if ask how you afford this nice neighborhood?" "Child Services wouldn't allow a single mother to foster if she worked..." "I live off the proceeds of a generous trust fund my parents set up long ago." "And the day that Charlie disappeared, all three boys went to the park." "It's two blocks away." "It's a very safe neighborhood." "They walk farther to school." "We all keep an eye out for each other around here." "People are good neighbors." "Take an interest." "Mom?" "In here, Skyler." "This is my son Skyler." "Dad told me to bring the boys back." "We've got to go on a job." "There's nothing to do here." "Our video game's broke." "Sean, David, This is Agent Booth." "He's going to find out what happened to Charlie." "How you gonna figure it out?" "Oh, I'm in the FBI." "We always figure it out." "Boys, I mean, if it's all right with your mother, maybe I could help you out with your video game." "This are invitations to a banquet." "You called a special meeting to invite us to a party?" "Don't think of it as an invitation, consider it a summons." "It's for donors." "Meet and greet, press the flesh, butt-kiss..." "I don't like it any more than you do, but these people fund our rrch, and all they want in return is to rub elbows with a scientist every once in a while." "Can't make it." "Yeah, me, neither." "I have a date that night." "You don't even know when it is." "yes, Mr Addy?" "What kind of food will there be?" "When I said you should think of this invitation as a summons, I understated." "It's a subpoena." "A grand jury subpoena." "Ignore it at your own peril." "You´re not gonna fire us if we don't go." "No, not fire you, but I can move your parking spot to Lot M. Enjoy the shuttle ride." "The shuttle smells like feet." "I know when I'm beat." "I'm in." "What the hell?" "It's a party." "Do I have to wear a tie?" "Formal wear." "I've arranged for a limo to pick us up from here." "Not me." "I'm not afraid of parking or feet." "Wait... you drive me to work." "You can't just think of yourself." "Repercussions and consequences, Dr. Hodgins." "I'm your boss and you will go tthis banquet." "Do you know what you're doing?" "I can fix anything." "Cool" "So, you guys, uh..." "you guys have girlfriends?" " I do." " Her name is Leila." "Leila?" "Leila..." "I thought you were going to ask us questions about Charlie." "Yeah, so which one of you puny mortals wants to challenge me first?" "Oh, me!" "You about to clean the bones?" "Yes." "I'm warming up the boiler now." "Something wrong?" "These are the smallest remains I've ever worked on." "That's a valid observation, Zack, but it's not helpful to the investigation." "Sorry, Dr. Brennan." "I was at Waco." "Br Davian compound." "I helped identify children who had been killed in the fire." "17 of them." "So, you're saying I'll get used it?" "No..." "I'm saying you'll never get used to it." "We're primates." "Social creatures." "It's coded into our DNA to protect our young," "Even from each other." "So I'm always going to feel terrible?" "What helps me is to pull back emotionally." "Just... put your heart in a box." "I'm not good with metaphor, Dr. Brennan." "Focus on the details." "Details-- yeah, I can do that." "No trauma to the skull, no compound fractures." "Charlie was not beaten to death, or dismembered." "It helps not to refer to the victim by name." "Green stick fractures on ribs four, five, six and seven, and the sternum is snapped transversely from the tip to the xyphoid." "Okay, what does that indicate?" "The victim's chest was struck by a heavy, blunt object." "Are you completely certain we've learned everything we can from the body at this stage of decomposition?" "I've been over everything at least three times." "Smell the mouth." "Anything behind the typical smells of decomposition?" "Some kind of chemical?" "Chloroform?" "Something used to render the boy unconscious?" "Take samples from the mouth, jaw, sinuses and... what's left of the esophagus." "Kids make it harder, Zack." "All right, look, you beat me bad!" "No wonder you don't have a girlfriend!" "David!" "It's okay, Mrs. Sanders." "That's all right." "No, I do have a girlfriend." "She pretty?" "Nah." "She's butt-ugly." "She's got one glass eye, and ugly back teeth." "Now, was Leila with you the day that Charlie disappeared?" "Uh... yeah, actually." "We stopped and played some video games at the arcade." "That must've been before you and Charlie went to the park." "You didn't go to the mall that day, David." "Sean?" "Don't ask Sean, Mom." "You met Leila at the mall, didn't you?" "You left Charlie with Sean at the park." "Well, just for a few minutes and ten they came back to the mall." "David!" "Sean let go of his hand for a second Charlie was gone like that!" "And then we came straight home!" "Charlie wasn't taken from the park, he was snatched from the mall." "We've been looking in the wrong place" "Come on Son." "What's with the rubber band?" "Methyl oxide vapor in this chamber will bind whatever compound" "Charlie breathed in before he was killed." "Ouch!" "It's an anger management tecnique, right?" "The key there is management." "This is what I'm doing." "Managing my anger." "There'll be a color change." "Red for pnictogens and chalcogens and blue for halogens." "I get that you're a little off-kilter." "Mad at the government, conspiracy of dunces-- all that." "Maybe even furious that you've had to mount a littly's jawbone inside a box to find out what killed him." "Wh I don't get is why going to a banquet makes you angry." "Halogens it is." "I'm going to scrape off the particles and see if the mass spectrometer can identify what type of halogen." "Anger is only turned inwards." "There are 20 surveillance cameras taking stills every two seconds throughout the mall, including access corridors and parking lots." "I concentrated on the ones aimed at the public concourse." "Okay, 10,000 people a day go through that mall." "How we going to find one small kid?" "Angela designed a mass recognition program to apply body types to skeletal remains." "Endomorph, ectomorph, mesomorph-- that sort of thing." "I modified it to scan two-dimensional images." "In this case, we're looking for body masses roughly congruent with Charlie, Sean and David" "There's David." "You're actually one of them, aren't you?" "One of who?" "The squint." "You look normal, and you act normal, but you're actually one of them." "This whole mass recognition program was Brennan's idea." "I'm completely normal." "Really." "Yeah." "Maybe before you got this job but, well..." "I see Charlie." "Whoa." "That's him, all right." "Oh God" "Ang... are you okay?" "These are probably the last pictures of this little guy alive." "Why is he alone?" "Why isn't anybody with him?" "Sorry." "Max resolution is X-40 by 480 pixels per inch" "He's not alone." "Someone's calling him over." "Can't you just zoom in?" "The fewer pixels that make up an image, the more the picture degrades once we zoom in on it." "Did that sound too squinty?" "Any way to enhance it?" "Well, I wouldn't bet a date with Colin Farrell on it." "I know him." "He's funny." "Funny is Will Ferrell, sweetie." "Hot is Collin Farell." "Look, the kid was definitely moving towards someone, all right?" "He wasn't struggling, he wasn't trying to get away." "You know, I wanna add the neighborhood kids..." "Skyler and Nelson to the list of possible suspects." "I have one other angle, but our bad guy is still obstructed in it." "Who the hell are you?" "Are you thinking of leaving the Jeffersonian?" "I'm not really this person." "What person?" "I'm not like you." "I'm not driven by the need for justice and all that." "I'm a good-time girl." "We have good times." "Cracking jokes over murdered skeletons is not good times." "I know it's harder on you than it is for the rest of us." "No, it's not." "Why?" "Because you look at their faces." "We look at everything else." "It's more clinical for us." "For you it... it's personal." "When we see a murdered child..." "Honey, I..." "I'm..." "No offense." "I'm really not up for one of you "It takes a village" anthropology lessons." "This is the longest I've ever had a job." "That's because of you." "If this is about hours or time to do your own art, then..." "Just let me work on it, okay?" "I'm an artist." "I used to draw naked guys." "Now I draw dead guys." "Just don't decide anything without talking to me." "Of course I won't." "I'm afraid Angela might quit." "Amazed she stuck it out this long." "Why?" "Oh, because she's human." "I'm sorry, Bones, it's just that, you know, uh, Angela didn't get the same training that the rest of you got on, uh, Planet Vulcan." "I don't know what that means." "She's more sensitive." " Who's more sensitive?" " Angela." "She like puppies and kitties and ducklings and, you know, Jell-O shots, and, you know, dancing on bars." "I know that." "She´s my best friend." "And Angela's not the only person in the world who likes baby animals." "I never got the big attraction." "I rest my case." "She's more sensitive." "We cross-referenced the length and density of Charlie's leg bones with other children his age." "The victim, I mean." "The thing to do is concentrate on the details." "Let's do that." "We found some abnormalities." "They're bowed and abnormally short." "Also, the victims bones show freezing of the joints at the hip and knee." "What you saying Charlie was crippled?" "The victim was disabled, yes." "His mother never mentioned that." "The ribs are broken in two places, which is not typical of blunt foce trauma." "How do you explain that?" "I attribute it to his medical condition and the corresponding brittleness of his bones." "I agree." "What is that condition?" "It looks like scoliosis." "A bend in the spine." "I think it's more than that, Zack." "There are multiple calcified lesions on the posterior thoracic vertebrae." "That plus Charlie's short stature and the asymmetric length his legs." "Margaret Sanders may not be Charlie's biological mother." "What?" "Test the bones for X link type of hypophosphatemia and Coffin-Lowry syndrome." "Whoa, whoa." "Okay, hold on." "USimmer down, just back up to the part where she's not his mother." "Dr. Brennan is having me check for hereditary genet defects which are always passed from mother to child." "If Charlie had one, then Margareth Sanders is not his mother" "How can you say that?" "Charlie suffered from a hereditary genetic disorder called hypophosphatemia." "Charlie's real mother would have the same disease." "You do not." "Never say I wasn't Charlie's real mother because I was." "Biological mother, then." "Mrs. Sanders, you are not Charlie's biological mother." "You want to explain that to us?" "I can't have children." "That's why my husband left me." "So, I took in foster kids." " Like Sean and David Cook?" " And Carlie." "Though his name was Nathan." "I got him as a baby down in Pittsburgh." "Ten days old." "His mother was arrested on drug charges, and Child Services brought him to me." "Three weeks I had him." "Then the charges was droped." "And you kept him?" "I gave him back." "But it nearly killed me." "I stayed in touch." "I bought him things." "Formula, a stroller." "I wanted to make sure he was all right." "Nathan what, Mrs. Sanders?" "Nathan Downey." "His mother was a drug addict named Jeannine." "Christmas Day, I found her dead on a kitchen floor." "A needle stuck in her arm, and I could hear Charlie crying upstairs." "So, I went up." "And you took him home?" "I look him in the eyes and I promised him I would never leave him alone again." "And he spped crying." "I expected every day for Child Services to come looking" "He would have ended up back in the system anyway." "I meant to keep him safe." "And love him." "And now, he's dead." "Okay, I had to arrest her." "The story checked out-- the overdose." "She confessed to kidnapp" "Margaret Sanders did nothing more than respond to the anthropological imperative." "She saw an orphan and reacted." "This is not a National Geographic study, okay?" "This is the suburbs." "Why would she kill the boy?" "She obviously loved him." "There are situations, right." "The kid gets sick, he doesn't turn out to be what she wanted." "I bet that you could give me a dozen examples of societies that have kild their own young." "Well, what about Sean and David Cook?" "Where do they go now?" "Back into the system." "Do you have any idea how bad the foster care system is?" "Do you?" "What do you want to do, hmm?" "Do you want to kidnap them, the way she kidnapped Charlie?" "I want you to let them go home Margareth Sanders." "It's not gonna happen." "Try redigitizing and resizing." "I did." "The extrapolation protocol got confused by the spread." "You know Hodgins better than anybody else." "So, why is he so bent out of shape about this banquet?" "What makes you say that?" "Because every time someone mentions it, he starts snapping that rubber band around his wrist." "I mean, what makes you think I know Hodgins better than anyone else?" "You're roommates." "I live above his garage." "But you see a lot of each other." "Not really." "He drives you to work." "I've never been up to the main house." "The main house?" "It's at the opposite end of the driveway on the other side across from the pond." "Okay, anything on the identity of Charlie's abductor?" "I can't clear up this image any more than it is." "Tell Booth what you told me about living in Hodgins's garage." "There's a bedroom, living room, kitchen, another bedroom, a then, two bath..." "Great." "Quite a garage." "Can we focus on the case?" "How many cars does he have in that garage?" "Including the antique ones, about 12." "And a boat." "Zack has never seen the main house, because the tennis courts and the pond block the view." "Well, he must be one of those Hodginses." "Who are those Hodginses?" "The Cantilever Group Hodginses." "Oh my God" "The same Cantilever Group that generates more GNP than Europe?" "Get this." "They are the single biggest donors to the Jeffersonian Institution." "Ha." "Makes Hodgins your boss." "What do you guys even talk about when he drives you to work?" "I mostly sleep." "Hodgins mostly yells at the radio." "Okay, if you can't see the guy's face, maybe you can grab a reflection" "That's a workable idea." "Oh, I'd say thanks, you know, if you didn't say it like it was some kind of a miracle." "Chem lab mass spectrometer identifies the particulates in Charlie Sanders' mouth as fluoride." " I recognize that look." " What?" "You're writing another book." "When you write, you get this stunned look on your face, like you stuck a fork in a toaster." "Am I this one, too?" "You weren't in the last one." "Fluoride?" "At what concentration?" "It's too high for toothpaste." "Put together a list of..." "Put together a list of anything that could conceivably contain fluoride at those levels." "All right." "Do you have time for this?" "Oh!" "He gave me a car." "Nice!" "Who?" "My publisher." "Now I feel like I have to earn it by writing another book." "Fight coercion in all its forms." "You don't write the book, I don't go to the banquet." "Solidarity." "Angela has a face for the abductor." "I looked on both cameras." "This one offered up more reflective surfaces." "Right at the door." "Olhe isso." "The abductor's face." "By polarizing the image, the computer can interpret the spaces and the dark gaps and fill in the missing pieces." "Wait, that doesn't look like an adult." "When I repolarize the image..." "Sean Cook." "The victim's foster brother." "Where were you taking Charlie, Sean?" "I brought him to the mall to see David." "I know you brought him to the mall, but we got a picture of you... leading him out of the mall." "Have you seen much of this ki of thing?" "I'm a juvenile prosecutor." "I wish I could say kids killing kids was rare." "Where were you taking him, Sean?" "When can I talk to Margaret?" "After you answer my questions." "Can he do that?" "Lie to a kid?" "We're after a child killer, Dr. Brennan." "If the child advocate in there doesn't complain, I sure as hell won't." "What's the point of having a child advocate if he doesn't advocate for the child?" "I get the impression you're confused as to what side you're on, Dr. Brennan." "Sean." " You know what that is?" " A scar?" "Yeah." "I got it, uh, when I was playing soldier with my brother, Jared." "Did it hurt?" "Yeah, it hurt." "But it was an accident." "You got any scars?" "My dad did it with a cigarette." "He shouldn't have done that." "Margaret didn't do anything like that." "I love Margaret." "What I nd to know is if Charlie had some kind of an accident." "Sean?" "Maybe we can just take a break." "Sean?" "He's not being aggressive enough." "Foster kids are powerless." "They're treated like garbage." "You're in a position to do something about it and all you say is, "He's not being aggressive enough?"" "Dr. Brennan, you know this boy may very well have beaten a child to death with a rock" "How long have we known each other?" "Do people really ever know each other?" "How come you never invited me over to your house?" "Oh, I didn't pick up that kind of vibe off you." "I thought we were close-- all of us." "What else don't I know?" "Is Zack from another planet?" "Oh, come on, that one is obvious." "You're rich." "You single-handedly own the Cantilever Group." "Don't deny it." "I know." "Who else knows?" "Zack." "Booth." "Don't tell Brennan." "Why don't you want us to know that you are actually our boss?" "I don't want to be anybody's boss." "I never did." "Please respect that." "What's up with Angela?" "It's... job pressure." "Fluoride at lower concentrations is used in tooth paste, instant tea and is added to our drinking water, which, I might add, can cause a range of conditions, brain damage..." "Which has nothing to do with the case at hand." "The concentrations found on our victim might come from wood preservatives, paint thinners, car wax, or various other industrial products." "Okay." "Did Angela say anything to you about quitting her job?" "No." "But we hardly know anything about each other." "Bones." "I thought you'd like to know..." "Sean and David are in emergency care." "Pulled some strings, you know, to make sure they... they get to stay together." "That's good." "Thanks." "It's the best I could do." "Yeah." "I understand." "Oh... you know, you say you understand but you don't, not really." "I mean, if you don't like the rule, you ignore it, right?" "I can´t have that" "And if you wto do this..." " Do what?" " Work on cases." "You know, with me, outside the lab." "If you want to do that, I need to know that you will respect the law." "Tell you what." "If I can't respect the law, I can at least respect you." "Oh..." "Yeah, that'll work, too." "It kind of comes out of nowhere, but..." "Look what you did." "It's a pencil." "I'll get you a new one" "The victim was killed by trauma to the chest, but the ribs are broken in two places, not just one." "Probably because of the brittle bones, because of the... his disease." "Well, that was my assumption, but there's another explanation." "Whoa." "What's the other explanation?" "Compression." "Wait." "Charlie Sanders was crushed to death?" "Yes!" "Green stick fractures, vertebral and sternal." "See?" "Hey, Sean Cook outweighed Charlie Sanders by what, maybe 30 pounds?" "How could he have crushed him to death?" "Angela, we need to run some scenarios through the Angelator." "Angela!" "Booth!" "Zack has been informed that if he tells anyone who I am," "I will kick him out on the street like a stray dog." "Sadly, there is nothing I can threaten you two with." "Yeah, that's a shame." "What I want out of my life is to come in here and sift through slime and bugs." "Unfortunately, my family is one of those who secretly run the world." "Paranoia and delusions of grandeur, all in one package." "You call it paranoia, I call it the family business." "Please, coulyou jud stop?" "!" "The reason that I do not want to go to that banquit is because the other members of the ruling elite will make a big fuss about seeing me." "My secret will be out, and my life-- this life, that I love-- will be ruined." "I'm asking you, please." "Please just let me be Jack Hodgins who works in the lab." "Charlie was three feet four inches tall and weighed 58 pounds." "E Sean?" "Sean Cook is 1.4 meters tall and weighs 31 kilograms." "His brother David was five eight, 150 pounds." "1.75 meters, 68 kilograms." "At first, I thought the break to Charlie's sternum was caused by blunt trauma because it only ran along one fault line." "But, when Booth broke my pencil, I realized there's another way to cause the same type of injury:" "compression." "Well, Hodgins found no particulates that suggested crushing." "Body weight." "There has to be enough weight on the victim to stop the abdomen from moving so no air can get into the lungs." "Prolonged pressure caused the sternum to snap in half and the ribs to break." "Sorry." "Sorry." "I entered real-world variables, taking into account Charlie's size and the amount of pressure...in the way that it was broken." "What did you end up with?" "86.2 kilograms." "What's that in American?" "190 pounds." "Way too much for either of the Cook kids or Margaret Sanders." "I put the neighborhood kid, Skyler, at about 160 pounds." "Well, it can´t be him, either." "We should be looking for a full-grown man." "You have to get Sean to tell you where he took Charlie when they left the mall." "He won't talk to me." "Let me do it." "Uh, no." "People are not your strong point, Bones, and besides, he's not gonna care how many facts you put in front of him." "Could you just go with me on this one, Booth?" "We're trying to catch a killer." "Let me help." "When was the last time you even talked to kid?" "I know what to say." " Do you remember me, Sean?" " The museum lady the one who's so smart." "Yeah, I'm pretty smart." "And very modest." "Oh, believe me, she is being modest." "Smart enough to know that you didn't kill Charlie." "You don't have to say anything, Sean." "Just listen." "They give you a garbage bag to carry all your stuff like they're telling you everything you own is garbage," "and then you have to go to a new school in clothes that smell like garbage bags." "All the regular kids know you're a foster kid." "How do you know what it's like?" "They bounce you from place to place and it's never home." "Sometimes the foster parents are nice." "Like Margaret?" "Yeah." "And sometimes they separate you from your brother." "It must have beennice with Margaret, staying with David." "We got bunk beds." "At night, I knew David was there." "I knew he was guarding me." "Margaret's nice." "You'd do almost anything to stay with Margaret, right?" "The man you took Charlie to, the man who hurt him, he's noticed that." "He didn't know that he'd hurt Charlie, but he did." "And then he told you that Margare would blame you-- that she'd hate you, but this man is lying to you, Sean." "I can make sure that you´d go back to Margaret." "How?" "You work at a museum." "I have a friend at the FBI." "If I ask him to, he'll make surethat you and David get to live with Margaret again." "Dr. Brennan you can't make promises like that." "Yes, I can." "He will do it." "My friend will make it happen." "Oh, man." "But you have to tell me-- who hurt Charlie?" "I'm gonna need your help to keep the promises she made to that boy." "Hey, I-I-I, I can't promise..." "Mrs. Charlto my people and your people are gonna have to make this happen." "What if Margaret doesn't want me anymore?" "Charlie wasn't her biological son either." "Charlie wasn´t her biological son either." "Charlie was just like you" "Someone that Margaret chose to love." "I don't think we should let that man take you and David and Charlie away from Margaret, do you?" "We should stop him." "You and I should stop him." "She did it." "She´s got his name." "Edward Nelson you´re under arrest for sexual assault and murder of Charlie Sanders" " Boys." " Mom." "We have him cold." "The insecticide he was using on the termites matches the fluoride concentration perfectly." "Skyler's dad admitted everything." "Don'tell me." "He said crushing Charlie to death was a mistake." "He never abused Sean Cook." "He just used him to get near Charlie." "It played out just like you said." "He had Charlie out in that field." "Some teenage kids, they come by." "So, he knelt on Charlie to keep him from crying out." "Sean got scared." "He ran back to his brother." "Charlie was small and weak." "His sternum collapsed." "You think he abused any other kids?" "Yeah." "Probably own son." "You report that to Child Services?" "Try to get the kid some help." "And I'm sorry." "For what?" "You have personal experience in the system." "I was a foster child until my grandfather got me out." "Yeah, when you said, um, they'd take you away from your brother," "I kind of had the feeling you weren't talking about David Cook." "Booth..." "I'll tell you all about it one day." "But tonight, I have to get dressed for a party." "Okay, Bones." "By the way, there's a huge ding on my passenger-side door because you told me not to park it at an angle." "Okay, that's just mean!" "I..." "You're mean." "All right." "That is t a tuxedo, Dr. Hodgins." "I am not going, Dr. Goodman." "You are going." "When we arrive, the donors will all bering wearing name tags." "What do we talk about?" "Your work, of course." "Zack's work consists of removing flesh from corpses." "Hodgins dissects bugs that have been eating people's eyeballs." "Leave me out of it." "I am not going." "And how do you see your job?" "I draw death masks." "Is that really how you see it?" "Don't you?" "You are the best of us, Ms. Montenegro." "You discern humanity in the wreck of a ruined human body." "You give victims back their faces, their identities." "You remind us all of why we're here in the first place." "Because we treasure human life." "Oh, for God's sake." "What happened?" "Apparently, all Angela needed was to hear her job description in a deep African-American tone." "Mr. Addy..." "Dr. Goodman, we need Hodgins in the lab tonight." "F.B.I. needs this analyzed by morning." "Uh, I-I'm gonna get right on it." "Wait a minute." "What case file is this?" "Am I supposed to know about it?" "Booth mentioned it to me earlier today." "That's good enough for me." "Fine." "You're off the hook, Dr. Hodgins." "Let's not keep the limo waiting." "Thanks." "You look nice." "Better than nice." "You look, uh, very..." "Thanks." "Bones, how did you know I was going to keep your promise?" "What promise?" "To get Sean and David back with Margareth Sanders." "Maybe I was lying to cat the bad guy." "I learned that trick from you." "The end justifies the means." "Booth." "I knew you'd back me up." "I knew you wouldn't makee a liar." "Hmm." "How'd you know?" "Because you want too to heaven." "But you don't believe in heaven." "But you do."

"When you are single in New York, there is no end to ways to fill your days." "Museums, parks, theatres, concert halls, nightclubs and countless restaurants." "But one of the most amazing things about living in New York is that any night, you can go... to Paris." ""Joy For Two" for one." "Enjoy the show." "Thank you." "It was one of those perfect New York nights." "That fucking Richard." "A less than perfect day." "He left an "l'm sorry" message." "Like that makes up for eating another woman's pussy." "Samantha!" "It's OK." "Nothing has to change." " Think of this as a big purse." " Your purse just spit up." "You'd think after three weeks he'd get the message." "Not OK to eat another woman's pussy." " Samantha, Brady!" " l'm pissed off." " What am I supposed to say?" " Call it another woman's sushi." "Fine." "Richard ate her sushi." "Fish and chips would have been an unfortunate order." " What did you do last night?" " A movie." " With who?" " Myself." " On date night?" " Will we call it that in our 50s?" "People would be thinking, "That poor, pathetic girl."" " Like how I'm looking at you now?" " What?" " You don't go out alone?" " On date night?" "New York is the perfect place to be single." "The city is your date." " You're dating the city?" " About 18 years." "It's getting serious." "I think I'm in love." " Do not check your messages." " l'm not." "I wanted you to hear his tone on my machine." "If you keep participating, you might as well call him." " l'm not participating." " This has to stop." "It's tragic you were in love and it didn't work." "You have to emotionally cut him out and the sooner, the better." "Everyone knows you only get two great loves." " Where did you get that?" " ln a magazine." ""Convenient Theories For You Monthly"?" " What does that mean?" " When you were married," " you believed in one great love." " What does "great love" mean?" "A love that changes you, that shakes you to your core, after which you're never the same." "Seriously." "There is not unlimited love in the world. lt's rare." "Way to take the edge off a club sandwich." "So far I've had one..." "Trey." "How many have you had?" " Zero." " Really?" "What about Steve?" "Steve's a friend, not a core shaker." "I'm done with great love." "I'm back to great lovers." " You?" " l refuse to define love in those terms." " l had to." " Come on, Carrie." "Aidan and Big." "One, two." "According to you, I'm done." "No, it was a stupid article." "It was at the dentist." "No, it's too late for that." "You said it. lt's over for me." "Here lies Carrie." "She had two loves and lots of shoes." "Fuck love." "I gave you "sushi", I need "fuck"." "After a light lunch," "Miranda stopped to set down a heavy load." " You want me to carry him?" " l've just got to switch." "Ladies, seamen, 12 o'clock." "I pray when I turn around there are sailors." "With her, you never know." "Oh, wow!" "We have just spotted our first sailors." "Fleet Week has begun." "Fleet Week is that one week a year when the US Naval ships dock, and our fair city is made even fairer with cute, sweet, American sailors looking for fun." "I've been so distracted by Richard." "I almost forgot my favourite holiday." " lt isn't a holiday." " lt should be." "The antidote to Valentine's Day." "Just what I need." "I'm gonna find out about the big party." " Hold on, Pearl Harbor." "Not interested." " We always have fun." "Running through Times Square in heels, to find a sailor to kiss." "That ship has sailed, pun intended." "We have to. lt's our patriotic duty as women of New York." "If you want to do your patriotic duty as New York women, you will come shopping and throw some much needed money downtown." " l'm in." " l'm in." "I...forgot the Snuggly." "Well, let's get you a cab home." "There's one." "Taxi." "Oh, OK." " l'll call you later?" " Overspend for me." " OK." " l'm OK. I've got it." " Bye-bye." " Bye." "I'll call you later." "Miranda suddenly found herself moving slowly away from her old life." "And quickly into her new one." "Oh, baby boy." "Big baby." "Look at that big face." "Here, let Magda... I'm good. I've got it." "You keep doing the thing, the mirror." " The nurse will put him down for a nap." " On floor?" " Lina?" " ls that my big boy?" "Hi, what are you doing here?" "I came over to hang with B boy." "Magda let me in." " Hey, champ!" "Want half a sandwich?" " Where'd you get...?" "OK, Steve?" "I can't have you hang." "I've got a schedule." "I've gotta get Brady down for a nap or he won't sleep tonight." " Lina!" " How's your nipples?" " Excuse me?" " Lina said they get sore." "Lina, would you get Brady ready for his nap?" "And don't talk to Steve about my nipples." "Thanks." " Don't blame her. I asked." " You asked about my nipples?" "I talk about your nipples to strangers all the time." " Ha ha, ho ho." "Bye!" " Hey, hey." "I came over to help." "I appreciate that but I've hired help." " Everything's under control." " Thanks for the eats." "Have a good evening, Mrs MacDougal." "Charlotte realised she may have put great love number one behind her, but his name was still in front of her." "Break-ups." "Bad for the heart, good for the economy." "It's the bad guy again." "I'll keep calling till you agree to talk." "Unless you want 20 messages every day, meet me tonight." "I miss you." "I'll be waiting, gorgeous." "Right sentiment." "Sushi Samba." "Wrong restaurant." "Richard Wright?" "Right this way." "Hello, gorgeous." "In a wildly optimistic gesture, I ordered you a dirty martini." "Dirty martini?" "Dirty bastard." "I have always wanted to do that, but I don't think I could." " How did it feel?" " Fabulous." "But I woke up this morning even angrier." "I need to hurt him more." "I can't be around that man." "He's toxic." " So, he's "manthrax"?" " Arrogant prick!" "I wonder what he was gonna say." "That he loves me, we belong together, he didn't mean to hurt me." "People make mistakes." "I cheated on Aidan." "He gave me a second chance." "Look how that turned out." "That was different." " True. lt wasn't a sushi situation." " That's another thing." "I'm not doing the baby talk at breakfast." "I signed up for friendship, not bullshit baby brunches." "You're overreacting." "Brady won't happen every day." " He'd better not." " Miranda's still Miranda." "She had a baby, not a lobotomy." "She knows you're not child-friendly." "Don't kid yourself." "Days of "pussy" and "fuck" are gone." "Later that night, I got to thinking about days gone by." "That carefree time when our schedules were as open as our hearts." "The time before the baggage and babies began to weigh us down." "I couldn't help wonder, does that sense of adventure still flicker inside us?" "Or when it comes to being carefree single girls, have we missed the boat?" "Surprise!" "Pain au chocolat." "Oh, I'm sorry." "I don't know you." "I'm Carrie. I'm a friend of..." "Hi, this is Lina." "Come in." " Does she speak?" " No, I love her." "Were we supposed to do something and I forgot it?" "No, I had the day free and thought I'd stop by for a chatty." " Fatty, come on. I've gotta sit." " Are you hungry?" "I brought some pain au chocolat." "Thanks, but the only eating I'm concerned with now is Brady." " He doesn't want to eat." " Perhaps he's anorexic." " Sorry, what?" " lt's a dumb joke." " What was it?" " Anorexic." "Oh, yeah...no." "I've been trying to feed him for an hour and he won't latch on..." "Stop." "Boring." "What's up with you?" "Well, I've been thinking about that thing that Charlotte said in the coffee shop." "About the great loves?" "Here we go." "So...maybe Aidan and Big are my two great loves, now." "But... that doesn't mean that..." "that I'm always gonna feel" " that way about them." " Come on, Brady. lt's right here." "OK, you don't want it?" "Fine." "Here we go." "There, in the middle of my two great loves, were Miranda's two great breasts." "I'm sorry." "What?" "Your breasts are huge!" "No, what were you saying?" "I can't even remember." "This is so frustrating." " He'll eat eventually." " No, not that." "This is frustrating." "I can't follow your thoughts." "It's all nursing and nipples." "Sweetie, they're looking right at me." "I am not gonna become one of those mothers who cannot carry on an adult conversation." "I am not." "Three weeks ago, I would've been listening and saying funny things." "Now I'm going, "What?" l didn't get the anorexic joke." " How easy was that?" " l'm just talking. lt's just words." "They're your words." "It's not just now." "Could Samantha have gotten me into that cab faster?" "Carrie, my friendships are... important to me." "We're not going anywhere." "Things will have to change a little." " Fuck." " l know." "But you're still one of us." "Only now, you're the one with the biggest boobs." "Can you believe the size of my nipples?" "I was not at all prepared." "I'm gonna have to find some trauma counselling." "There." "We have contact." "OK. I'm gonna go." "Let you concentrate on Mr Hobbes." "You don't have to go." "I can listen now. I can do it." "Miranda, you're a mother." " But it's OK. I won't tell anyone." " Don't." "What are you going to do all day?" "First a trip to the Guggenheim and then lunch and then..." " Who knows?" "It's New York." " Hot date with your city?" "Exactly." "See that?" "You listened and we had the witty repartee." "Bye." "That same afternoon, Charlotte felt like going to a movie." "She called her afternoon movie friend, Anthony." "Carrie says the French film at The Paris is amazing." "Fuck the French." "Like I need to spend an afternoon looking at that shit." " Good hat." " Thanks." "What do you want to see?" " Anything with Josh Hartnett." " l don't know him." "He's cute, with a capital 'U'..." "He totally checked you out." "Get his number." " He's a sailor." " l know!" "Hurry!" "He's getting away." " l can't do that." " You are so not gay." " What am I going to do with him?" " Fuck him!" "Put an end to that Park Avenue, pink shirt, flaccid mojo" " you've been dragging around." " l'm not dragging anything around." "I changed my name back to York on my mailbox." "Good for you." "Maybe you should be thinking about a different box." "When did you last have sex?" "If you have to think, it's been too long." " When was the last time...?" " 10:30 today at the gym." "I'm not looking for just sex." "I can have just sex." "I'm looking for my next great love." "Don't let it hit that six month mark." "After that, it's a sleigh ride into menopause." "If you don't put something in there soon, it will grow over." "What is it with this friggin' wind?" "As Charlotte and Anthony made a left," "Samantha found herself in the right neighbourhood, Richard Wright's." "Here you go." "Thank you." "One for you." "Ma'am. lt's against city law to deface public property." "This man said he loved me, and I caught him eating another woman's pussy." "Carry on, ma'am." "New York weather, like a man, can be unpredictable." "But that's part of the fun." "And a New York museum, like a man, can sometimes be closed when you wish they were open." "That's another reason I love New York." "Just like that, it can go from bad to cute." "Well, I guess we're not going anywhere for a while." "I love the way the rain smells." "If this were a French movie, we'd fall in love and get married." "No, I was just pointing out how romantic this would be in a movie." "I don't want to marry you." "OK, I do!" "Come on. I'm kidding." "We just met." "Let's wait five minutes." "I don't want to get married." "I was engaged last year, and if I didn't want to marry him..." " Singles at the counter." " l was hoping to get a table..." "Singles, counter." "Two!" "Two!" " OK, thank you." " Two!" "Who's next?" "Several blocks later, I decided to warm up with a bowl of matzo ball soup." "Come on, come on!" "Let's go!" "That manager's really a prick." "I put up with it because I come here all the time." "They know me." "I live in the neighbourhood." "We single gals got to have a port in a storm." "Am I right?" "Lithium. I like to sprinkle it on my ice cream." " Ever try it?" " No, can't say that I have." "What kind of mood elevator are you on?" "I'm not on one." "Yeah?" "I used to be like you." "Then I broke up with this guy." "This was '82." "Morty." "Thought somebody better would come along." "Never happened." "Oh, I love this!" "If Charlotte was right, this woman's two great loves were a man named Morty and lithium-laced ice cream." "After 20 minutes squatting under the coffee shop hand dryer, I realised I'd been kidding myself." "New York and I didn't have the perfect relationship." "All right!" "It was dismissive, abusive, and it made me feel desperate." "I was now fresh out of great loves." "Hey, sir!" "Thank you." "Should I?" "Allow me to introduce myself." "My name is Louis Laroy." "This is Bill Hope and Paul Watkins." "We'd like to invite you to a navy party tonight." " Feel free to bring some girlfriends." " Feel very free." "I don't know why I was fighting it." "This will be fun!" "Exactly what we needed." "Three single gals back on the town." "What's the longest you've gone without sex?" "You don't get that info without dinner and a drink." "Next week will be six months." "Thanks." "She threw me and I lost my concentration." "I am gonna have sex with a sailor tonight." " She almost got me on that one." " l have to have sex to put Mrs Trey MacDougal behind me. I'm a new Charlotte York." " What about the great loves?" " Maybe that was bullshit." "Gotcha." " How are we gonna find your sailor?" " We'll find him." "God bless America." "The important thing is to stick together or we'll get lost." "Samantha!" "Charlotte!" "Yeah." "Oh, yeah." "There." "And uptown, another woman found herself in a confusing navel situation." "Look, Brady." "There's your belly-button." "Help me!" "20 freaked out minutes later... I can't do this." "I'm prepared for the expected, but not the unexpected." "I can't schedule shit like this." "And the people you hire won't help you!" "Where's the cat?" "Oh God." "Steve, it's gross." " Help me. lt's gross." " Relax. I'll give you a hand." "He may not be a core shaker, but Steve was there when she was shaken to the core." "You looking for someone?" "My girlfriends." "This party's like the Bermuda Triangle for women." " That's a little sailor joke." " You're funny." " You remind me of my mom." " Bye-bye." " Evening, Miss." " Ahoy, matey!" "Nice dicky." "Meanwhile, I had not found Charlotte, but Charlotte had found an officer who wasn't a gentleman." " Show me your tits?" " l can't do that. I barely know you." "OK." "Just show me one." "It's an order." "The old Charlotte would've had him court-martialled, but the new one..." " Well, officer." " ...had a deadline." "If it's an order." " Jesus!" " Carrie!" "I was just looking for you. I didn't..." " This is Officer Matt Cook." " l'll see you later." "I can't do this." "Let's just talk." "It's your call, Ma'am." "Charlotte was caught somewhere between the old and new York." "She figured showing her boob to a stranger bought her three months." "Carrie!" "There you are." "Where's Charlotte?" "Believe it or not, she's involved in a peep show upstairs." "I'm starting to have a new-found respect for that girl." "What is it about today?" "I've seen Miranda's boobs, Charlotte's boob." "Why not show me yours and get it over with?" "I was kidding." "I wasn't." "That ought to hook me a sailor." "Yeah, Tailhook you one. I'm going." " No!" " Yes. I was right." "This ship has sailed and tragically, I'm still on it." "Good night." "Hey, keep an eye on Boom Boom up there." "Hey, there." "You came." " Yes. I came, I saw, I'm leaving." " Come on." "I've come all the way from Louisiana to dance with a New York city girl." "I'm a good dancer." "Even though she was floating in a sea of dickies..." "One new message and 12 saved messages." "...Samantha could only think about Richard." "You threw a drink in my face and papered my neighbourhood." "Would I still call if I didn't really love you?" "I love you, gorgeous." "Give me another chance." "You threw a drink in my face and papered my neighbourhood." "Would I still be calling if I didn't really love you?" "Say, Louis from Louisiana, how many great loves do you think you get in a lifetime?" "Great loves?" "That is the question on deck." "Maybe one, if you're lucky." "Well, I'm glad I stayed." "After this city kicked my ass today, I needed that dance." "I have to say, this is my first trip to New York." "Not for me." "The garbage, the noise." "I don't know how you put up with it." "Thanks." "Goodnight." "Wait." "Going home all alone?" " lt's rough out there." " lt isn't so bad." "If Louis was right, and you only get one great love," "New York may just be mine." "I can't have nobody talking shit about my boyfriend." "A short while later, I had a thought." "Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back." "Maybe you have to let go of who you were... to become who you will be."

"Rats, put the fucking gun down, will you?" "Here we go, boys." "Keep it up." "Go, go, go, go, go!" "Open the door!" "Open the door or I'll blow your fucking head right off!" " Down!" "Down!" " Fuck off." "Shut that fucker up and get him on the fucking floor." "Liar!" "Come on!" "Are you fucking joking?" "It's a fucking dud." "Fuck's sake." "It's a fucking dud!" "Steady, let's fucking go." "Let's go." "Let's get the fuck out of here." "You're a fucking arsehole!" "96,7 news," "The mutilated remains of a man have been found," "The body of a Liverpool businessman," "The body has been identified as Leo Murphy," ",also known as Leo the Pig," "He is believed to have had ties with Liverpool's gangland," "You're paying that lot, aren't you?" "What is the point?" " They didn't know it was empty." " I'm serious." "So am I." "That lot do not give a fuck about you!" "Let me tell you what happens if I don't pay that lot." "That lot take on their own jobs, that lot fuck it up and the shit lands on my doorstep again!" "Doing it this way guarantees that doesn't happen." "Where are you going?" "Keith is expecting you to be over there later on." " Keith will get his money, Debs." " What, all of it?" " No, not all of it." "He'll have to wait." " What do you mean, have to wait?" " Dad." " Doesn't..." "Can I go to work with you?" " Because my mate..." " Can you..." " Get your bag." " My mate, Ben Milton." "He goes to work with his dad." "Come here." "You're never going to go to work with me." " Why?" " You're too clever for my line of work." " Ben..." " No." "Shh, shh." "That's why I send you to that big, posh private school." "You got your lunch?" "Come on, tiger." " Sweetie." " Bye." " Morning, gorgeous." " Morning." " Hey, Pam." " Ged." " Hi." " Hey." "You OK?" "I'm fine." "I'm fine." "Let's put the sparkle back in those eyes." "What?" "Pam, do you know what time it is?" "Are you and mum going to get divorced?" " Where have you heard that?" " Well, you don't like each other." "You're always arguing." "Stevie, me and your mum love each other." "People fight all the time." "It doesn't mean they're gonna split up." "It's all right, though." "I mean, I know loads of parents who have split up." "Well, we're not." " There you go." " Thanks, Dad." "No problem." "I'm late." " See you, Dad." " See you, son." "Francis, what now?" "Cheers." "Leo did what he did and he took his chances." "Look what happened." "I'll do the wake." "All right, I'll see you then." "Stay out the way till Moby turns up." "Then come in." "Get rid of that fucking lot, as well." "All right, lads." "Richie, stay out the way." " All right, lads." " All right." " Lads." " All right." " It's a piece of shit anyway." " Yeah, tell me about it." "All right, lads." "Phones." "Come on." "Come on." "Stop fucking about." "Ooh!" "Ooh!" "You dirty bitch." " You looked at that brochure yet?" " Yeah." " And?" " And what?" "Are we going the full horse and carriage?" " Well, how much is it?" " I've told you." "Well, tell us again." "Fully monty, white ponies, white trap, footmen in full livery, the whole works, plus a contribution to the church, hall, food..." " How much?" " It's your son's first communion." "I'm just asking where I need to be on it." "The way your side drinks, we're talking ten." "Ten grand?" "Oh, Anthony." "Think on it, though." "It'll be a day to remember." "A day we'll never forget." "All right, fuck it." "Tell the priest I'll be in to sort it." "He'll be here in a minute." "So you'd best pop your knob back in your pants, you dirty bastard!" "What's happening, Mobe, lad?" "Hey, Mobe." " Heard the news, lad?" " What?" "You know Leo the Pig?" "He's been done in, hasn't he?" "They fucking ripped the fat cunt to bits, mate." " When did this happen?" " Last night, it was." "See you later, Mo." "Jimmy, pint for Mobes." " Boys." " Mobes." " So what's it like?" " It's flash." " Is it?" " Yeah." "Phone, Moby, lad." " What's this I'm hearing about Leo?" " Anyone know who done it?" " Serbs." " Russians." "Be them or that Kosovan firm." "Fucking animals." "Don't know what this city's coming to." "Don't know where you stand no more." "Whoever done fat Leo must have been fucking nuts." "Or out to make a point." "You don't leave a body out in the fucking open." " Yeah?" " It's Paul." " Which Paul, soft lad?" " Paul the Hom." "For Ratter." "Rats, you expecting some homo?" " Homo." " Let him in, George." "Didn't know you had a date." "Come in, then." " Rats, I just need a word." " We were just talking about Leo." "Yeah, I heard." "Nasty stuff." " Mind you..." " What you having, lad?" " Brandy and diet." " Mind you what?" " Well, it's just, who's gonna step up?" " What do you mean?" "Leo had a big operation, didn't he?" "It leaves a fucking big hole in terms of trade," "What the fuck are you talking about?" "Alls I'm saying... is a firm, the Brennans, in this city is well respected." "Am I right?" "And yous are already like that with Franner." " Our Gerard's like that with Franner." " Look, alls I'm saying is if we..." "If Gerard's all right with it and that." "But if a firm like yourselves was to step up to the plate..." "Are you with me, boys?" " What kind of dough we talking about?" " You fucking serious?" "We're talking about taking over Leo the Pig's whole fucking thingio here." "We're talking fucking Brewster's, boys." "You fucking owe me, Jimmy, and it's gonna have to be a very fucking big one to make up for that shambles yesterday!" "I have heard something." "I've been told there's a fuck-off shipment of them Sony PlayStations going out, you know, the new sort." " Worth what?" " I don't know." " How many?" " Three shipments." "They've got, like, 20, 30,000 on each." " So it's a lot, you know what I mean?" " When?" "I don't know." "Nothing's been confirmed." "They probably don't know themselves yet." "OK." "As soon as you hear anything else, you let me know, do you understand?" "And don't fuck me about this time." "Ged, if I sort this, that's it, we're suare, I'm out." "All right, Ged, please?" "Is that a deal?" "If it's as big as you're saying it is, then maybe." "Now fuck off." " What do you reckon?" " I don't buy that." "Gerard won't buy it." " You know what he's like with drugs," " It goes beyond drugs," "Think of the bigger fucking picture, will you?" "Listen," "If it's good enough for Franner, then it should be good enough for him." " I was just telling the boys..." " Wait over there." " Just need a second and that." " All right, Ged." " Boss." " You've heard, right?" "Yeah." "Franner called this morning." "What are you doing bringing no-marks in?" "He's not a no-mark." "Paul's a good lad." "Anyway, I thought you might be open to something new, seeing as the old game's so fucking reliable." "You fucking ungrateful bastard." "Look, Ged..." "You don't even know what the lad wants to tell you." "Please, don't make a cunt out of us, eh?" "Just listen to what he's got to say." "What's the worst can happen?" "Two minutes." "Well, as yous all know, that fat fella went yesterday." "There's fuck all the other fella can do in there." "And the new fella, the young lad, well, he's done one to Marbella, hasn't he?" " Anyone fucking following this?" " Hang on, Ged." "You're gonna like this." " We're talking Brewster's." " I hope that's all we're talking." "That's the thing, you see, Ged." "The game's wide open." "And it needs someone to step in." "Not just any cunt, no." " It needs someone known..." " Shut the fuck up." "What've I told you?" "Just hear the lad out." "Things have changed in that game." "It's a fucking global enterprise." "A what?" "!" "A fucking..." "A fucking global what?" "Fuck off!" "You haven't heard the fucking numbers!" "Look, it's 20 times on every key you bring in." "I can hook us up with at least 20 dealers." "That's 20 times, Ged." "Shut the fuck up!" "I'll give you numbers." "I'll give you fucking numbers. 25 fucking years." "Does that ring a bell with you?" "25 fucking years." "That's what you'll get if you mess with this shit." "Or worse still, you'll end up cut to fucking ribbons like fat fucking Leo." "Now, you listen to me, gobshite." "There is no fucking me and you!" "Fuck off, scum!" "The likes of you do not hook up the likes of me with no fucking cunts!" "George, will yous keep the dogs out the bar, please?" "Do you wanna tell me what the fuck that was all about?" "I am fucking disappointed in you, lad." " What the fuck was all that about?" " He's a fucking dinosaur." "Trying to do him a favour, put work his fucking way!" "I know." "Forget about it." "You're doing it." "You've got the car, the lifestyle." "You've got your own fucking crew." "Every cunt round here's talking about Ratter." "If we're taking over Leo's patch, we'd better make sure the buyers are all right with us supplying them." "The main one's that Scottish cunt, Matty." "We'll see him first." "We go straight to him, he's gonna think it's a bit convenient." "Plus we need someone to front us the money." " Who?" " I reckon the Serbs." "If we can get them to front us the money, then we'll be sorted on our deal with the Irish." "What, you can't do the full 50?" "No." "A little business deal didn't quite go to plan recently." " I see." " You will get your money, Keith." "Just not today." "Ged, I hope you don't mind me asking, but... are you sure you can get the rest of the investment?" "I'm sure one of the other guys wouldn't hesitate to step in and take some of your stake and downsize yours, if it would help." "I'm in for 250,000, Keith." "250,000 is what you're gonna get." "Good man." "I'd hate to see you miss out on this one, Ged." "Good man." "Should have seen them all before." "Every cunt wondering who done Leo in." "Wankers haven't got a clue." "Richie reckons that some smackheads are putting it about that they might know what happened." "Like what?" "That they just might have seen something that happened." "That they saw us kill Leo." "Right." "Well, we can't have that, can we?" "Richie." "Sure they're definitely up there?" "Yeah." "We've been watching them." " They reckon they saw something?" " They fucking know it was us." "Remember, lads, in and out, and don't leave a fucking thing behind, yeah?" "Fucking smackheads." " Who is it?" " It's pest control from the council." " Can you open up, please?" " What do you want, though?" "We just want to have a look inside." "If you open the door, please." "It's not really raining now." " Sony PlayStations." " The new ones?" "Mm-hm." "That's Fritzy's communion pressie sorted." "Oh, and listen, knobheads, don't forget the 20th, eh?" "Why?" "What's happening, Mobes?" "The communion, dickhead." "You'd all better show up." " When is it?" " The 20th." "What day are we talking, Ged?" "Could go any day." "Stand by your phones, yeah?" "You listening to me, John Paul?" "This could go any day." "You with me?" "So just lay low, yeah?" "Moby, stay out of town." "I mean it." "Just keep your head down." "Just until this is sorted." "Then we can all do what the fuck we want then." "It's a big one, this, lads." "More than make up for that shambles the other day." "How big, Ged?" "How big, boss?" "Big." "Very big." "Give me a minute." " Hiya." "Good to see you." "How are you?" " Hello." "I invited Pam over when we were having a drink last night." " This is for you." " Thank you." "We're on our way to a charity do at the Royal Liverpool." "Do you play golf?" "Fucking dirty bastard!" "It's good for the roses, I hear." "Listen, help yourself to whatever you fancy, yeah?" " Thanks." " Back in a minute." "Debs." " Hi." " Hi." "I'm Marie." " Pamela." " Keith." "Nice to meet you." "Hi." " Can I get yous a drink?" " Sure." " What are they doing here?" " What is your problem?" " I'm talking business with the boys." " They won't be staying long." "Then you can carry on talking business with the boys." "I wish you would talk to me before inviting whoever you want." "What?" "Ged, I have not invited whoever I want." "I invited Pam and Keith because they are friends of ours, real friends." "They are not freeloaders who just constantly take from you." "When was the last time that that lot ever offered to do anything for you?" "So what's the story, morning glory?" " We live down the road." "Neighbours." " Nice." " You?" " I'm just sort of a brother of our Ged." "You see that guy there, Moby?" "Moby!" "He's a cousin." "Big piece of shit, but he's a cousin." "That's the boys." "That's my nephew." "I'm better looking than all these fuckers, wouldn't you say so, love?" " I wouldn't know." " You with him?" " Yeah." " It's a shame." " Not for me." " How d'you know our Ged, then?" "Just a little business opportunity we've been putting together." " Like what?" " Ask him." " You've met my baby brother." " That's right." "Fucking hell." "I am a brother, aren't I?" "Am I half a brother or the full brother?" "Or was I adopted?" "Sometimes it's hard to fucking remember who I'm supposed to be." " Why don't you go and play, John Paul?" " What?" "We're just chatting." "These are your new friends." "We're talking about your little business opportunity." "I'm your brother and these are your friends." "You're doing business with them." "So what's the fucking problem?" " Get the fuck off." " All right." "Just having a fucking chat." "What's the fucking problem?" "Fucking big brothers, eh?" "Always telling you what to fucking do." "I'll see you later, love." " Come on, lad." " Get the fuck off." "Get off!" "I'm all right." "Come and play with your Uncle Ratter, eh?" "Come on." " Sorry about that." " It's no problem." " Don't worry." " We should get going." " Absolutely." " Thanks for coming." "No problem." " Oh, are you going?" " Yeah, afraid we have to go." "Thanks for inviting us." "We're having a little drinks party tomorrow night at our house." "We'd love you to come." "For a few of our major investors." " We'll be there." "Thank you." " Yeah?" "Six?" " OK, six." " Bye." "Come on, Ged." "Stevie." "Stevie." "Stevie." "Eh, how the fuck is it OK for you to be out doing deals behind our backs?" "We can't do fuck all without you." "How the fuck does that happen?" " Because I pay you, that's how." " Pay us?" "!" "Pay us?" "!" "You give us fuck all." "Your jobs are worth shit." "That's if they fucking happen." "We could all be earning a fortune." "Get the fuck off me." "Get the fuck off me." "You're as bad as him." "It's a shithouse firm." "All of you know it's fucking shit." "Hang around with your poncy mate." "Let somebody else have a go." " Take it easy." " Ged, I mean it." "Trying to be the big fucking "l am"." "You've forgotten who you are, mate." "You're a fucking fraud!" "Fucking cunts, all of you!" "So what I reckon is that we have the same deal as what you had with Leo." "There's no need to get into renegotiating and all that shite." "But there's certainly..." "There's certainly room for expansion." "Oh, for fuck's sake, mate." "What the fuck?" "Look, you were a valued customer." "I wanna make sure that stays in place." "Fucking cunt." "I hear that most people think that Porky getting done in is down to me." "It's just fucking rumours, mate." "But that's why I think it's wise if you keep things the way they are." "If you were to start dealing direct, it might not look so good." "Beat it." "I'm going." " Oh, darling!" " Ah, my darling!" "It's well known that your firm should have been much bigger by now." "But you're not, are you?" "Because of our Ged." "You've had the mockers put on a lot of your operations." "It's the same for me." "So what I'm proposing is we do a little business ourselves." "Who knows what might happen?" " You like it, Moby?" " Get 'em out." "Come on." "Get 'em out." " Moby." " Listen, how you doing, man?" " It's about your bill." " Oh, yeah." " It's getting way out of hand." " I don't get you." "You owe us 900." " Jeez." "Oh, really?" " Yes, really." "The Brennans getting involved in the drugs game?" "Not exactly, no." "Let's just say that I'm branching out into more diverse areas of business." "And on that note, seeing as this will be our first venture together," "I'm gonna have to ask for the money up front, just to get things moving." " Why would I agree to that?" " You haven't got a fucking choice!" "Eh, eh." "Who's the bitch?" "Fucking keep it down, lad." "Let me do the talking." "[speak Serbian]" "Passports." "I can see you've got your hands full, so why don't I give you some more time to think about it?" "I don't need more time." "The answer is no." " Cunt!" " Just take it easy, lad, will you, eh?" "He'll come round." "Come on." "I need you to get the Irishman on the phone for us." "All right, boys." " What are you doing here?" " What do you think?" "Didn't think it was your scene, especially you." "We've gotta get off, so we'll see you later." "Lads, listen, say fuck all, eh?" "You know what Ged's like." "Yeah, don't worry about it." "We were never here, mate." "Enjoy yourself." "Yes." "I've got it all in here." "There's three trucks going out, a week apart." "The best one to hit is the third." "If the first two go without incident, believe me, the third one'll be easy." "I'll bung Terry the usual to make sure I'm on the third truck." "Now, all the trucks on this run are fitted with GPS." "At the most you have ten minutes with the truck being static before the office puts in a call to see what's going on." "Right, I'll take you through the route." "Now, as always, there's no guarantee that won't change." "They could alter the route." "Why?" "Don't they trust you lot?" "What else?" "Hang onto this." "Take those as well, will you?" "Looking sharp." "Oh!" "You looking at me, you piece of shit?" "Come on, you fucking pig." "Go on, dance, monkey!" "John Paul." " Thanks for agreeing to see us." " I was on my way to Manchester anyway." " I know, but you're busy, so..." " Think you might be able to do this?" "I know I can." " Is your brother in?" " No." " What does Franner say?" " I'm seeing him later." " You haven't cleared this with him?" " He'll be sound." "Don't talk to me until you've been to Franner." "Hang on." "Hang on." "Look, it'll be sound." "We go way back." " Speak to him first." " He knows what I'm doing." "Look, you're a difficult man to get hold of, aren't you?" "I had to take my opportunity to get you." "If you are fucking me about, I will fucking kill you, OK?" "Yeah." "Sound, yeah." "Are you familiar with the system?" " So you'll know it's always cash." " No problem." "Have you got a date yet?" " 20th." "Any problems with that?" " No, it's sound." "Couldn't be better." " You're a man in the know, are you?" " I keep my ear to the ground." "Good." "Good." "Me also." "You wouldn't happen to know anything about who took Leo out, would you?" "Rumours." "I'll find out, though." "We'll be in touch." "What the fuck have you been doing?" "Nothing." " Come on." "What did he say?" " Fuck all, really." "It's safe." "Just got to work out how to get the money." " How are we gonna do that?" " Lepi." " He told us to fuck off." " I'll change his mind." " He's a fucking prick." " Shut the fuck up!" "You're always so fucking negative." "What's wrong with you?" "Paul." "Listen, mate, Paul, just fucking..." "I need to chill out, yeah?" "Look, we're gonna make him an offer he can't refuse." "Right, lad?" "Come on." "So it's on?" "It's fucking on, man." "We're gonna sort him out." " We're gonna be rich!" " We're gonna be fucking rich, kid." "Whoo!" "Oh!" "Hello." "Sue." "Sticky Sue." "Sticky Sue." "Yeah, I'm looking at you on the internet." "Fucking right." "What, now?" "All right, yeah." "I'm coming." "Yeah, I'll be on my way." "Hi, Moby." "There you are!" "Send her, then." "And get that fucking blond lad now, soft shite." "Filthy fat bitch." " You're gonna get some of me." " I'm gonna get all of you." "Tell them about when you met Bill Clinton." "Moby, you dirty boy." "Get up." "In the middle." "Now dance." "Go on!" "Fucking dance!" "No kissing." "No kissing." "Dirty, filthy pig." "You fucking fat bitch." " You're gonna get it." " Go on, then." "It was his car." "Bill Clinton's car." "Bill Clinton." "I mean, come on." "Come on, fat arse." "Grab his arse." "Arse." "Nice arse." "Stick your finger in her cunt." "You fucking like it, you." "And you now." "Grab his fucking cock." "Grab his cock." "Grab his fucking cock." "You want some of this?" "That's it." "You defer the tax on the properties for at least five years." "Just buy the right asset at the right time and sell it on." "Some smackheads are putting it about they might know what happened," "You wouldn't happen to know," " You wanna fucking help?" " All right, all right, all right." "Please." "Fuck off!" " Dirty little fucking smackhead." " You fucker." "Get the fuck out!" "Get out, you dirty fucking cunt!" "You!" "Get out!" "Now!" " Do you wanna dance?" " No, you're all right, darling." "I'm fucked." "I'm having a quiet one." "Hey." "Go dance." "Go dance." " What the fuck do you want?" " You know what the fuck I want." "I'm only having a beer." "Cheeky cunt." "I want it dealing with now." "Really?" "Hello." "When all this has calmed down, why don't we go away?" "Hm?" "Somewhere else." "Just me, you and the boy." "Spend some time together." " Turn it off." "Ged." " Sorry." "Now, then." "Keep him there." "I've gotta go." "Debs, it's Moby, OK?" "Look, I'm sorry." " Not yet." "The night is young." " I'm sorry." "You throw a great party." " Here's to many more, yeah?" " Definitely." "Sure you gotta go?" " Got to." " What's so important?" "Stick around." "Have another few drinks." "The night is young." "See you later, mate." "They're a great couple, those two." "God, they're so boring downstairs." "I know." "Do you think they're gonna come up?" "No." "You're so beautiful." "I love you." "Stop whingeing, Mobes." "Need to fucking clean it." "Fuck's sake, Gerard." "Look at me." "You OK?" "I'm fucking telling you." "Fucking Lepi's crew." "What did I tell you?" "900 quid." "He's done this for 900 quid?" "It's not about his tab, is it?" "This was for your benefit." "If it was Lepi's crew that done Leo the Pig and now this..." "Fucking pigs." "I need you to do a straightener for me." " Not gonna give you any trouble, is he?" " Is he fuck!" "Fucking have the bastard, Mobes." "Fucking have him." "Good lad." "I'll go and see Lepi in the morning, OK?" "Moby, on the head." "Go on, lad." " Fucking state of that." " Fucking hell." "Cheeky bastards." "Half time, boys." "A few surprises for them." "Let me tell you about those Serbs." "They would be fucking unstoppable if they could just get fucking started." "We're not gonna let that happen." "It's being dealt with, so I don't wanna hear another word." "I'm having a straightener." " Fucking shut up, will you?" " Can we get on with why we're here?" "We're going to fat Leo's fucking wake tonight, may he rest in fucking hell." "You know who's gonna be there." "Fucking eyes and ears." " Know anything about Leo?" " Franner." "I bet he knows about it." "You happy about that?" "I'm not." " I don't know nothing about him." " You must know something." "I've got a fucking reputation." "I'm gonna restore that reputation." " What are you doing?" " George is gonna start us off." "That's for your time." "It's for your time." "We'll have the two Jimmys fencing, as per usual." "Good lad." "You'll go far." "You fucking won't." "Lucas, Walker, Bailey, Rats, on the MP5." "Why did you not break his fucking jaw?" "There's a GPS tracker we need to lose." " What do you know about Leo?" " What about him?" " What, you've heard nothing?" " What's going round, like." "That it was the Serbs." "What about the smackheads that got carved up?" " Smackheads?" " Don't be cheeky, dickhead." " What about some smackheads?" " What, you've heard nothing about 'em." "Fuck all." "Have yous heard anything about some smackheads?" "Fucking heard about no smackheads." "We'll be in touch." "John Paul, can I have a word, please?" "I've gotta go somewhere, mate." "I just wanna talk to you about the other day, at the barbecue." "Don't worry about it." "But I do worry about it." "I worry for you." "Anyway, I'm sorry." "I was out of order." "I've been a bit stressed lately with this and that." "Forget about it." "It's cool." "This will be big, John Paul." "You will be sorted then." "Do you understand?" "Trust me." "I know." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Love ya." "John Paul." "Fancy a pint or something?" "Do I fancy a pint or something?" "I've gotta fucking see Lepi, haven't I?" "Remember?" "Soft arse." " Well, do you want backup?" " No, I don't fucking want backup." "Do you want it to kick off there and then?" "Go home, Moby." "Take a nap." "I'll see you at the wake." "And you are not fucking drinking." "You're going on fucking Rola Cola." " Here to see Lepi." " Who are you?" " Ratter." " Ratter?" " Yes, Ratter." " Ratter." "Come here, mate." "Come here." "Ratter." "Ratter." "Ratter to see Lepi." "Get that in your head and fucking tell him." " What do you want?" " I wanna see fucking Lepi." " Now get on there." " Lepi?" "What do you want?" "I'm fucking busy." "I know, but you're gonna wanna hear this." "Not you." "What do I want to hear?" "What?" "I'm gonna give you something that's gonna make you a lot of dough." "It's a job." "A fucking big job." "I'm gonna give you everything, details, plans, routes, times, everything." " I'm gonna do that for you as a favour." " A favour." "Very generous." "Not really." "This is business." "And I want us to continue where you and Leo left off." " That way, we can help each other out." " Go on." "The best part of this deal is you get something" "I know you really fucking want." "And what is that, huh?" "What?" "Ged Brennan." "I thought that might get your attention." "Who are you?" "You can have him and his whole fucking crew." "You take them out and we'll control the whole fucking game." "All I want is the money up front for the trucks." "Lepi, there's someone at the door to see you." " Who is it?" " Ged Brennan." "We have an interesting situation developing here, ladies and gentlemen." "I assume your brother doesn't know you're here offering his head on a plate to me?" "What the fuck's he doing here?" "He must have followed us." "Take it fucking easy!" " What can I do you for?" " I think you fucking know why I'm here." " We have to get off." " They'll fucking sort it." "Have you got a back door?" "Fucking blah, blah, blah." "Yeah, very fucking romantic." "You finished now?" "I need you to calm the fuck down." "There's only two ways this can go now, Lepi." "We either have an all-out fucking war or we find a nice quiet spot so that my cousin Moby" " and that fucking shithouse..." " Fuck you!" "So that my cousin Moby and that fucking shithouse can have a one-on-one." " The choice is yours." " One-on-one, huh?" "It's called a straightener." "It's what we fucking do in this city, Lepi." "Although it's probably a bit too fucking civilised for the likes of you!" "Like a duel, huh?" "How suave." "Be there tomorrow morning, 8am." "No crew." "No fucking tools." " No problem." " You'd fucking hope so, wouldn't you?" "All fucking Brennans are fucking crazy!" " 900!" "You do this to me for 900!" " Have we..." "Lepi, have we got a..." "Have we got a fucking..." "Have we got a fucking deal?" "!" " Don't you fucking touch me." " The meeting is over." " I need to speak to Lepi now." " Motherfucker." "I'm not going out the front." "Where's the fucking back door?" "The meeting's over." "Get the fuck out of here." "Just fucking..." "Fuck off!" " All right." " Gerard." "Francis." " Your dad sends his regards." " Does he, now?" "You should go and see him." " I don't think so." " How's tricks?" "Can't complain, Francis." "How about you?" "Yeah, not too bad." "Heard you had a bit of trouble with a blag." "Yeah, it was nothing, really, mate." "Right." "Let's have a proper drink and a chat later." " That'd be nice." " Thanks for coming." "I'd just like to thank yous all for coming here today and for helping make it a nice day for Leo's family." "We all know Leo was no angel, but he wasn't a bad man." "He had respect." "He was loyal." "Honest." "Old school." "He was a fucking good businessman." "Made me a lot of money, didn't he?" "You see, the problem is, these young crews today, they've got no respect." "They think the flash cars and the fancy clothes make them real men." "And when I catch who's done this, and I will fucking catch them then we'll see who the real men are." "Now, if you'd all like to stand and raise your glasses." "And join me in a toast." " To Leo." " To Leo." "Safe journey." "There's a little bit of adult entertainment for you here, boys." "So enjoy yourselves." "Feel free to tip the girls." "You all know where the slots are." "Here's your drinks." "Don't give him a drink, all right?" " Not for him." "No drinks for him." " I've only had one beer." "You've got a straightener in the morning, soft shite." " You're making a cunt out of me." " You're all right." " I'll not have a drink." " You're fucking right." "So do me a favour." "Fuck off home!" "Now!" "You'll thank me in the morning when you're not nursing a hangover." "I'll pick you up at seven o'clock." "Maybe next time you'll fucking listen to me!" "Do you wanna take his place?" "All right, Moby." "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "I spoke to the Irishman about the thing." " Two whiskies, Joe." " Coming up, Franner." " You heard anything about Leo?" " Serbs." "That's all I've heard." " That's what we got told." " That's why I wanna make this tender." "Big step up for you, lad." " I'm good for it." " Leo had a good network." "Solid custom guaranteed." "Whoever takes it on has gotta be able to maintain that." "Think you can handle it?" " Sorted." " Should have come to me first." "The normal scheme of things, that's exactly what I would have done." "Things are not normal, Franner." "I had to move quick on this." "I take it your Gerard knows fuck all about this." "I'd like to keep it like that." "It's not his scene." "He's got his own things happening." "I just wanted to get myself set up, have my own little thing going." "You good for the money?" "Don't fuck them boys about." "It's sweet." "All right." "Keep in touch." "Come on." " You are one dirty bastard." " More right." "More right." "Whoa." "Back up." "More." "Back." "Whoa, whoa." "OK." "Go." "Go." " Push." " I'm pushing, you dirty fuck." "It's coming." "I see it." "Push!" "Look at me." "Good night, was it?" "No." "Wanna tell me about it?" " No." " No." "You ever thought of doing anything different?" "You know, if we didn't do what we do." "What do you mean?" "I don't know, Moby." "Just..." "A business or something." "Something different." "There has to be something different." "Years ago I thought of getting a pet shop." "Exotic pets, snakes, iguanas, that sort of thing." " You in a shop?" " Yeah." "Why?" "What's wrong with that?" "Nothing." " So what stopped you?" " I don't know." "Things come up." "You get sidetracked." "Years go by and then it's too late." "Do you regret that?" "I sometimes think about it." "Well, it's not too late, you know." "Yeah." "Maybe." "Why?" "After this next job, I'm out." " I've got the fear." " Come on." "I keep feeling my luck's running out, and if it does..." "I can't do the time." "Not with my little one." "Kid needs a father." "Your Fitzy's getting to that age." "Don't you feel the same way?" " I've never really thought about it." " You should." "Aren't you tired?" "Constantly pulling blags and knocking skulls together." "I quite like it, actually, especially the last bit." " Morning!" " Here we go." "You think about it." "Now go and knock his fucking head off." "Shall we get on with it, then?" " Let's go." " Let's go!" "I'm so tired." "You know after you left the other night?" "I lay there for hours." " Really?" " I kept thinking about you." "Yeah." "Me too." "Thanks for everything, Pam." "I'm having the most amazing time." " You're welcome." " You've been brilliant." "I'll pop round as soon as I can." "No problem." "Bye." " Nice to see you ladies working hard." " Darling." "Join us for breakfast." "I'd love to, but I just dropped in to see Ged." "Is he around?" "He left early this morning." "I've been told that we'll be signing for the land tomorrow." " Four o'clock at our house." " Brilliant." "Everything's been approved, so we're on." "It's just today is the final chance to get everyone's commitment." " Sorry, Debs." " Oh, no, listen." "I'll give him a call." " I'm sure he won't be long." " I need to get going." "It's no problem." "Tighter." "Ged, can you call me, please?" "It's gone to voice mail." "Oh, bollocks." "Um..." "I'm not sure I'm going to be able to get back." "What time does the money have to be in by?" " Noon." " Can't you pay Ged's part now?" " He'll pay you later." " It's a lot of money." "Keith, don't be so rude." "Ged's got the money." " Debs, I'm really sorry." " Hang on." "How much is outstanding?" " 140,000." "But we can take care of it." " No, stay..." "Wait there." "Fucking cunt!" "Moby." "Moby." "I think the lad's had enough." "This ends now." "I think you know what I mean." "82..." "Come on, lad. 83... 84..." "Go on." "Keep going, lad." "Keep going." "Yeah." "Lepi?" "Your proposition regarding your brother?" "You have yourself a deal, matey." "We're on." "We're fucking on, lad." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "Deb?" "Deb, are you OK?" "Are you OK?" " Debbie, are you OK?" "Are you OK?" " What?" " Where is the fucking money, Debbie?" "!" " What?" " Where is the fucking money, Debbie?" " I gave it to Keith." " Keith came round here for it?" " For the land sale." "He had to get the money today." " So why didn't you call me?" " I did." "You didn't answer the phone." "How much did you give him?" "It wasn't all there." " Some in the safe and I had some..." " How much?" "!" "108,000." "Don't worry about it." "I'll make up the rest." "Thank you, darling." "Tell Ged he can pay me back when he's got it." " Are you drunk?" " What?" "We have been celebrating." "Is it because I gave it to him?" "Ged, get off!" " Phone Pamela." " I'm not phoning Pamela." " Stop panicking." "Everything is fine." " I'm going round there." " What for?" " Because I wanna see him!" "OK, let me have a shower." "I'm coming with you." "I'm going now, Debbie." "All right, lads?" "Richie." "You wanted to see me." "His sister's been seeing one of them fucking Lepi's boys, hasn't she?" "Told him they're planning on robbing thousands of them new PlayStations." "Well, the Brennans have planned the same job." "It's gonna fucking kick off big time, kidda." " You want a ton for that?" " Yeah, of course." "Why would she say that?" "I'll be in touch." "Keep your eye on him." "Are you all right?" "You have got to be fucking kidding me." "Fuck!" "Vamos a uedar aqui in casa por un poco de tiempo." "Check it out with him." "Tell him to stop dicking me around." "Y, Monica, estaremos aqui esta noche." "Hang on a second." "Monica." "Monica, get me a beer or something." "Yeah, I need you to do something for me." "Yeah." "Cayman lslands account." "I need you to transfer the money for me." "Yeah." "It's 003-795-160." "No, it went like a dream." "Don't worry about it." "Don't worry about it." "I left them a bottle of champagne." "I'll catch you later." "I'm a happy man." "Are you?" "No!" " I love you." " I love you too." "See you." "Congratulations." " See you later." " Bye." " We should celebrate." " Definitely." "I don't fucking believe this." "I must be losing my fucking touch." "What a fucking mess." "But they were our friends." "Excuse me?" "Friends?" "They weren't our friends." "They were never our fucking friends." " They've been planning this for months." " God." "I just can't believe she'd do this to me." "What the fuck is that supposed to mean?" "What the fuck are you talking...?" "What the fuck are you talk...?" "Oh, you..." "Look at me!" "Look at me!" "Look at me." "Look at your husband." "Look at me." "Mm?" "Open your eyes, Debbie." "Fucking open your eyes." "Little fucking pretty cokehead, was she, eh?" "Little fucking pretty cokehead?" "Reeled you in, didn't she?" "Well, she fucking ripped you off, Debbie!" " They've fucked off with the money!" " No!" "She wouldn't do it to me!" "She wouldn't do it to me!" "Fuck!" "Jimmy?" "I'm coming over to your place right now." "No, right fucking now, Jimmy!" " What's up?" " Get in." "There's a change of plan." "We're doing the first truck." "What?" "That's in two days' time." "It's too soon." "Anyway, I'm not driving that one." "I'm driving the third..." "Jimmy, we're doing the first fucking truck." "You make sure you're fucking driving it." "Fuck." "Ged, it's gonna cost you." "Fucking say that to me again." "Fucking...!" "Tell me you're not fucking taking the piss!" " All right." " You're getting enough out of this." "Just fucking make sure you're on that fucking truck!" "Go on, fuck off!" "Fucking be prepared, and we're now doing it on the 20th." "OK?" "Does it have to be that day?" "Can't we do the second one?" "Anthony, I'll get you back in time for your communion." "Stop worrying." " You're late." " What's the panic?" "Changed the date, lad." "We're doing the first one on the 20th." " Same day as the communion." " He says we'll be finished before that." "Since when do you give a fuck about a communion?" " 20th a problem for you?" " No, it's sound." "It's not a problem, Ged." "Francis." " Are you up for going to the communion?" " Course I am." "What, now?" "Well, yeah." "I'm kind of in the middle of something." "Can't it wait?" " What are you wearing?" " A suit, I think." "George, I'll see you later." "Right, guys, see yous all on the 20th." " Get a good rest, eh?" " So that's it?" "I was fucking called here for that?" "Are we finished?" " He's changed the plans?" " Don't worry about that." "Tell Lepi it's the same job, details, route, just a different date." "Got you." "Don't make it sound as if it's anything to panic about." "Don't flap." "Flap?" "What do you mean?" "I don't flap." " What the fuck are you doing now?" " I don't fucking flap!" "For fuck's sake, Paul!" "Get out the car." "You get in the car." "Just get out the car, will you?" " A picture." " Please, no!" " Richie, you piece of shit." "Smile." " You fucking cunt!" " Did you get that?" " Yeah, got that one." "All right, lads." "Get me down." "Please." "Please." "Stop." "No, please, no more." "Tell him." "Tell him what you told me." "Tell him." "Tell him, Richie." "Tell him." " Fucking..." " Francis." "Fucking take him down, will you?" " Tell him." " Ratter." " Who?" " It was Ratter." " Fucking hell." " Tell him." "Tell him." "Tell him what you told me." " Who?" " Ratter." "Who?" "!" "Who told you?" "Francis..." "Who told you?" "Ratter!" "Fucking Ratter!" "Ratter told me." " What did he tell you to do?" " To kill Leo." " What?" " To kill Leo." "Just shut him up now." " Kill Leo!" " Shut him up now." " Fucking why?" " To take over his patch." "Ratter told us to do it." " That's enough now." " What the fuck are you doing?" "Shut the boy up." "You know I've got fuck all to do with this." " Do I?" " Yes, you fucking do." "You see, he would have had to have had the nod from you, Francis." "You fucking did, cos I watched you do it." "Tell me you fucking gave him the nod." "You gave him the nod." "Yeah, to take over Leo's patch, but not to fucking kill him." "I can't believe you'd do that to me!" "I can't fucking believe you're making little land deals behind my back without cutting me in on it." "But we do things, Gerard." "It's what we do." "All right." "This..." "This PlayStation thing." " You're gonna have to drop it." " Fucking no chance." "I'm fucking doing it." "I fucking am." "I'm doing it, Franner." "I've heard the Serbs are gonna be involved." "Be a fucking blood bath." "You wanna watch yourself." "That is a fucking chance I'm gonna take." "Understand me?" "Because I'm fucking doing that job." "Besides, that little fucking land deal has gone fucking tits up." "Fucked off with my money." "Are you telling me you got shafted?" "Yeah." "I'm losing my fucking touch." " Who was it?" " Slick little fucker." "Called himself Keith Thompson." "Fucking little husband and wife team." "I checked him out." "He seemed kosher." "I fucking hold my hands up." "They fucking took me for a ride." "That is why I am fucking doing this job!" "Do you fucking understand me?" "!" "I fucking need it!" "Don't fuck..." "Don't fucking stop me!" " Gerard..." " Don't fucking stop me." "I'm not asking." "I'm telling you." "For your own good." "You're not doing it." "Please..." "Maybe you're right." "See?" "Wasn't that hard, was it?" "No." "Are you your brother's keeper?" "No." "Don't worry about your kid." "I'll take care of that." "For you." "OK?" "You just clean this mess up." "Fuck off." "Please don't." "Please." " See you, Richie." " Just get me down." "Please." "Please, Ged." "Please." "Please." " Shh." " Please." "Please." "Don't..." "Close your eyes." "Close your eyes." "Close your eyes." "Shh, shh, shh." "Shh." "Richie." " Close your eyes." " Please." " Ged, please." " Close your fucking eyes!" " Don't be late for that service, you." " I'll be there." "We've fucking done it." "We've done it!" "After this, no one will be fucking with us." "We're fucking gonna be untouchable." "It's just the fucking start, mate." "We'll be making much bigger fucking deals than this, I promise you, lad." "Come on!" "Listen, I'm gonna have to go, mate." "See you later." "All right?" "Oi, Jimmy." "You have to finish that before you get in." "There's no food or drink allowed." " It's the rules." " Jimmy!" "Jimmy!" "You haven't signed." "Oh, shit." " Sorry, mate." " OK, don't worry about it." " All right." "Don't panic." " Yeah, all right." " Ged." " All right, boss." "All right." "Everyone's here, but I can't fucking get hold of Rats." "He's not coming." "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "It's gonna be the year of the fucking Rat, mate." "And the year of the fucking Hom." "Gerard?" "Gerard fucking who?" "Shut the fuck up, will you, Paul, lad?" "Fuck's sake." " Can I have some more?" " Easy with that!" "Checking in." "One, two." "Hear me?" "All good this end." "Richie, it's Paul." "Get back to me, you little prick." "What's the story with Rats, then, George?" "Why isn't he here?" "Rats isn't coming." "Simple as that." "End of story." "So just forget about the fucker, will you?" " The fucker should be here." " Well, he's not, is he?" "So just fucking shut up, will you?" "!" "This isn't like Ged." "Last-minute job." "Well, sometimes plans have gotta change, haven't they?" "That way, you stay ahead of the game, don't you?" " If this is a dud, we're off." " Fucking behave, will you?" "!" "If Ged says it's gonna be a big one, it's gonna be fucking big, all right?" "!" "Eh, Tony, what if these fucking Brennans show up, mate?" "Fuck them." "They won't turn up." "Don't worry about them." "We'll have to go right through these cunts if theys turn up." "Shut the fuck up." "Let's get this job done and get the fuck out of here." "You've forgotten who you are." "Trying to be the big fucking "I am"." " I will catch them." " Fucking Ratter!" "Trust me." " Here we go, gents." " 60 seconds to go." "Get out!" "Get the fuck out!" "Fucking get out!" "Come on!" "Ten minutes, boys!" "Ten minutes!" " What the fuck are you doing?" " Just in case." "Are you fucking stupid?" "It's Franner." "You can't carry a gun." "Put it back." "I fucking mean it, lad." "Put it back." "Fuck's sake." "What's got into you?" "Now, look, let me do the talking." "Ahoy, shipmates." "All right, Franner." "Didn't expect to see you here, but y'know, it's always a pleasure." " You have the cash, I presume?" " Yeah, it's all there." "And..." "Where are the goods?" "There's a bit of a problem on that score, boys." "Yeah, we've had a few developments concerning a fat friend of ours." "Fuck!" "Paul!" "Franner, mate, I can explain this." "We go fucking way back, don't we, now?" "All right, go on." " What else?" " We're running the old decoy system." "So they send out a dummy truck on a different route." "I'm the dummy truck." "The dummy truck." "I want all the information on that decoy truck." "All the routes." "What's the point?" "They're all empty, aren't they?" " Just get it." " Fucking hell." "Here you are." "That's for your trouble." " Make sure you drop them two far out." " Not a bother." "See you later." "All right." "So?" "How'd you get on?" "What, totally empty?" "I tried." "I'll drive myself." "I've got a nice new car there." "See you in a bit." "Make it look good, eh?" "I already have, Jimmy." "I already have." "So you've had a good day?" "You?" "So-so." "Got something for you." "Take care."

"Alright, quiet, come on." "Calm down." "Who wants to see ghosts?" "Who wants to see some ghosts?" "Ghosts!" "Alright, that's better." "Uh, first of all... hello, welcome." "My name is David Williams, this is my colleague, Claire McManus." "We are archivists in the National Film Archive." "Today, you're gonna see a series of films, dated from 1895 to 1905." "It's worth bearing in mind that everyone you see, in these films, are long since dead." "All these people, men, women and children have vanished off the face of the earth, forever." "So, in a way, it's like watching real ghosts." "Alright, alright!" "Let's just watch it and see what you think." " Thanks." " Don't worry... she'll love it." " Hi." " Hi!" "Hey, Eileen... nice to see you." " Lovely to see you again." " How are you?" "This is my wife, Alice." " Hi." " Hi!" "Great to meet you!" "It's so nice to finally meet you." "Sorry I couldn't make it the last time." "I was... busy..." "No, no, no, no... not at all!" "So..." "I'm gonna let you go on in, and take a look for yourselves." "I'll be right here waiting for you." "Take as much time as you need." "Alright, thank you." "Come on then!" "Go on, you first." " Are you coming?" " No." "I'm too nervous." "Go on, you go 'round." "I love it." " Alice..." " Mmmm?" "you got a message." "You got a message" "Who is it?" "Mom, dad." "Hey, sweetie..." "I heard a noise and woke up and now I need to go toilet." "I'll go." "Dad, are you afraid of the dark?" "No, of course not." "Why, are you?" "No, but there could be something hiding in the dark." "Hmmm, well, like what?" "Monsters." "Night, night, OK?" "I love you." "Night, dad." "Love you." "Do you want to hear any dinosaurs I can name?" "Well, maybe tomorrow." "Can you say night, night to my two dragon heads?" "Good night!" " Is he alright?" " Yeah, he's fine." "Who was the message from?" "Steve... in work." "Just because he doesn't have a life, he thinks everyone else should be on a 24 hour call." "I'm sorry." "I should have switched it off earlier." "I love you." " Good night." " Mmm." " What time do you start work?" " What's this?" " What's this?" "Not 'til 10." " Oh." "Alright, come on." "Have a good day, sweetheart." " Bye." "Love you." " Bye." "Love you, too." "Thank you." " Come on." " Bye, boys!" " Bye, mom!" "Allosauwus, Bwontosauwus, T-Wex, Twicewatops, Stegosauwus, that's the best one!" "Wow!" "God, you're getting so clever, that's more than I can name!" "Do you think you would let us swim in there?" "No way." "No, it's too deep." "Would you be able to swim in there?" "No." "No, tt's too deep for me, too." "Billy?" "Billy!" "Billy!" "Billy!" "Hey, don't go in there, I told you." "A girl in my school saw a ghost in there." "Well, I don't know about ghosts... but there could be rats in there." "It's filthy." "Hmm?" "Can I throw a stone and see if a ghost comes out?" "You wanna throw a stone?" "Alright, just one." "Then we've gotta go." "You got one?" "OK?" "Can I throw another one?" "No!" "Come on, we're gonna be late." "I'll pick you up later." "Bye, dad!" "Have a good day." "I hope you feel better than you look." " No, I didn't get much sleep last night." " Oh!" "Why, do I look that bad?" "Mmm.." "No worse than usual." "Anyway, I probably don't look much better!" "I was up til 4am watching Cat People and the Curse of the Mummy..." "Cat People?" "It was on?" "I love that movie!" "Yeah.." "I was gonna give you a call, but..." "I figured you need your beauty sleep!" "Yeah, very funny." "Listen, I don't mean to spoil the day with work, but, umm... some films came into the archive." "Some from the police archive..." "could be interesting." " Yeah?" " Hmm." " Would you look at them for me?" " Sure." "Great." "Thanks." "Hey, that's my road!" "I had a really strange day today." " I watched a 1902 film, our house was in it." " Oh." "There was a murder here." "A man killed his wife." "It happened in this room." "What?" "I wouldn't worry about it." "Horrible things happen in every old house." "Only these dinosaurs rule their..." "You look amazing, Mrs. Williams!" "Oh!" "Thank you, Sophie!" "This is my husband, David." "Hi!" "Hi." "Sophie used to be the nanny for the Thompsons, two doors down." "Mom, Sophie never even heard of Stegosauwus." "Well, not everyone knows about dinosaurs, you know!" "OK, make yourself at home, and help yourself to any food in the kitchen." "We shouldn't be home too late." "See you tomorrow, OK?" "Sleep well." "Pleased to meet you." "Alice!" "Hi!" "Alex is here." "I'm sure you remember David, my husband." "Hi." "You're the, uh... the librarian?" "The... archivist." "Nice to see you again." "You, too." "I'm sure you won't mind if I borrow your lovely wife for a couple of moments." "There's somebody I'd really like her to meet." "No, no, not at all!" "I'll get a drink." "Yeah, I'm fine." "Can I help you, sir?" "Hey, can I get a, uh... another gin and tonic." "Hi." "I'm sorry about that." "What was all that about?" "Um.." "work stuff." "He wanted me to meet this client, but I didn't want to." "Not tonight." "I had thought he was the client." "Yes, he is." "But he wanted me to meet another one." "A colleague of his." "Come on." "Let's dance." "I'm just gonna finish this." "I love you." "Whoa!" "Sorry!" "I couldn't resist." "You alright?" " Yeah." "I'm OK." " You look pale." " No, I'm alright." " Yeah?" "Paler than usual, even." "Umm, I have the last 7 or 8 of those... donated films lined up in the screening room, take a look?" "Yeah, sure." "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are." "Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky." "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I..." "Kiss!" "Bye, boy." "Bye, mom." "Wait for your dad, Billy!" "Hey, don't work late tonight." "Yeah, come straight home." "Why?" "What's wrong?" "I won't be too late, I promise." "Bye." "Alice!" "Alice!" "Hello?" "Dad!" "I'm still at school, are you collecting me?" "Dad, did you forget about me?" "I just lost track of time." "I'm sorry." "Adam and me were the only ones left." "Adam said a gowilla could beat a winosauwus in a fight, is that true?" "No." "The master wants you." "The master wants you." "Don't do it to me." "I'll die." "I don't want you to to do it!" "Don't!" "Please, please, don't, David!" "I don't want to..." "David, please... please.. don't, don't." "Don't!" "No, I don't want to die!" "I don't want...!" "Hi, it's Alice, here, sorry I missed your call." "If you want to leave your name and number, I'll get back to you, as soon as possible." "Thanks." "Detective McNamara." "So, when did you last see her?" "Um... yesterday morning." "We said goodbye." "I took Billy, my son, to school." "Has she stayed out all night before?" "No." "No, never." "She said she was working late last night, but I asked a work colleague of hers, and she said Alice left around about five." "And did you have an argument?" "No." "You sure?" "Yeah." " You been in touch with her family and friends?" " Yes." " And they've heard nothing from her?" " No." "OK.." "Umm... hair color?" "Some of them are a little old." "That's all I could find." "Dad, when will mummy be coming back?" "I told you... she'll be home soon." "Don't worry." "Pretty.." " Hey." " Hey." "Is there any news?" "How's Billy?" "Yeah, he's fine." "I put him to bed about... an hour ago." "He wanted to sleep in your room." "Do you know there's black stuff on your hands?" "Yeah, they took my fingerprints to eliminate me." "In case there's an investigation." "I, um..." "I put Billy... to bed about an hour ago." "He wanted to sleep in your room." "And he's fine, all day." "Um, we get on really well!" "He's a great kid, I really like him." "I get to know everything there is to know about dinosaurs!" "I know." "Yeah!" "I'd better go." "Yeah." "Thanks." "Yeah." " I'll see you in the morning." " See ya." "Billy..." "Billy!" "What are you looking at?" "Come here." "I had a dream about mummy." "I miss her." "Man came forward yesterday, claiming to be your wife's lover." "Says he was with her the night she disappeared." "They've been seeing each other for about a year." "You know anything about that?" "No." "Well, according to him, she was planning to leave you." "That's impossible." "She loves me." " She has a lover, David." " He's lying!" "Well, several of her friends have backed him up." "By all accounts, she was in love with the bloke, and he with her." "Sorry." "This fucking... acid reflux." "Total... fucking pain in the arse." "Want one of these?" "No." "I've got a very weak stomach, David." "You didn't kill her, did you?" "You've no right to be asking me these things." "I love..." "I love my wife." "I-I'd never, never do anything to hurt her." "Never." "You asking her lover these questions, are you?" "Yeah." "You asking him if he killed her?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "He's got an alibi." "His boss called just as she was leaving his house, they both heard her insist on going home by herself and then, uh... stayed on the phone for over an hour, so... it's cast iron, mate!" "Uh.." "people always suspect the husband." "Do you know why that is?" "Cause it's always the husband." "Every fucking time." "Is this your wife?" "This your wife, Alice Williams?" "Yes." "Yes, it's my wife." "There was no evidence of foul play or assault." "She drowned." "She must have fallen in." "It was an accident?" "Yes." "I think so." "One of the heels of her shoe had snapped off, which we think may have caused her to fall in." "So, in the absence of any evidence to the contrary... we have to conclude that it was an accident, yes." "Do you agree?" "You did know she was pregnant?" "Very sorry for your troubles." "Yes, well... thank you." "Nana." "Ohh!" "Billy..." "She loved you." "You... you know that, don't you?" "Yes?" "Yes?" "She loved you... more than anything else in the whole world." "Yes." "Oh, Billy!" "William." "Billy." "Go on, go and play with Claire, OK?" "How's he doing?" "Yeah, he's alright." "Children are strong." "They are stronger than most adults, even." "Of course, they don't really understand... do they?" "Maybe I should take him for awhile." "It might be good for him." "I think Alice would have liked that." "He should be around another woman." "A mother figure." "Yeah, we've got Sophie living with us, now... you know, Billy's nanny." "I..." "I think it's best if he stays at home, with me." "Did you hear about Alex?" "Alex?" "Alice's boyfriend." "Apparently, he's taken Alice's death very badly." "He's completely devastated." "They say he need to go into a hospital." "To recover." "Yes." "I couldn't give a shit." "Do you understand me?" "I couldn't care less, Meg." "I have my son." "A lot of people loved her." "I loved her." "I, uhhh..." "I have to go." "Just say goodbye to Billy." "It's a long day." "You alright?" "I lied." "I, uh, I lied to the police." "I did know about that guy in the house." "Oh... uh, um... doesn't really matter now anyway, does it?" "It was an accident." "The thing is, um... you know, on the night she disappeared..." "I went to his house, that guy... and I went in after them," "and I saw them together in bed." "I didn't do anything." "You know, I could have done, but I didn't." "I just left." "They didn't even see me." "On the way home I felt... so sick, I just had to go into the..." "the public toilets beside the canal, and I just threw up, everywhere." "And I remember..." "I was just being sick, and I looked up, and there was someone looking over the cubicle wall at me." "It was a man." "I managed to get to the door..." "and just before I blacked out" "I swear I saw him with his hands around her throat... and he... and he was trying..." "he was trying to kill her." "He was killing her, and I couldn't move." "I couldn't do anything." "And then when she didn't come back home the next day, I..." "I knew what I'd seen was real..." "Claire." "It was really real." "Then you need to tell the police." "What?" "Tell them what?" "What I told you?" "I don't even-I don't even... know what the man looked like." "It doesn't matter, tell them anyway" "But once I tell them I followed Alice into that house, that-that is it." "Alright?" "They'll... they'll just-they'll just think it's me." "Then what are you gonna do?" "I have to find him first." "I just have to." "David!" "David!" "What?" "The old camera." "Uh, no, sorry." "I'll do it now." "It's OK." "Do it in the morning." "What's this?" "Umm... it's just, uh..." "Uhh... just... unsolved crimes, you know?" "Murders that happened, in the city, around the canal, I..." "I found it online." "Just going through it." "See if I can find similarities." "David." "You should be taking time to grieve, not thinking about stuff like this." "I'll find something." "You know, I just have to keep looking, that's all." "What's that one?" "Take a guess." " A puppy!" " A puppy!" "Do you know which one you're gonna get?" "A miniature Schnauser." "Dad, look what we did!" "Wow!" "It's great!" "I hope you don't mind." "I know how busy you are." "No, course not." "No, I totally forgot." "Dad, lift me up, so I can put the angel up on top." "You want to put the angel on top, do you?" "Up right the top." "Alright, Billy." "You ready?" "Wherever you want... 1-2-3... come on, reach!" "Sorry for disturbing you." "I was thinking that we could make a real effort with the decorations and stuff this year." "I think it would be good for Billy." "What do you think?" "I could buy more lights for the stars." "And yes, I thought I could decorate all the other rooms and stuff." "Make it, like, really Christmassy." "Yeah." "Yeah, that sounds a good idea." "Are you alright?" "Yeah, yeah, I'm fine." "Mr. Williams." "'Night Sophie." "Do you want us to move?" "No, it's OK." "Stay where you are." "Hello?" "Is someone there?" "Sophie?" "Sorry!" " Ah, sorry." " Sorry." "Sorry." "Look, could you come to my room for a second?" "Why?" "Uh, just for a second." "Don't, just listen!" "It's very faint." " What is it?" " Just listen." "You hear it?" "I can't hear anything." "No, it's stopped." "There's something behind there." " Maybe it's just a rat." " No, no, no." "It's not a rat." "I can't hear anything." " Ohh... what can you hear?" " It's whispering like someone's praying." "Maybe it's just from the house next door." "No." "No-no-no, the walls are too solid." "Dad what are you doing?" "I was asleep." "Billy." "Billy, go to bed." "It's alright." "It's nothing." "Everything's OK." "Take him to bed, will you?" "Come on." "We have to go to bed." "I want to stay." "What's Dad doing?" "What's wrong?" "Billy, go to your room." "Get dressed." "You and Sophie are getting out of here." "I'm just gonna put the belt on you." "There we go." "Alright, I'll see you tomorrow." "I love you." "I'm not sure about this." "Sophie, I'm sorry about this." "You're just gonna have to trust me, alright?" "It's not..." "It's not safe here." "It's not safe for you and Billy." "Everything is... paid for, at the hotel, they're expecting you." "OK." "You can buy anything you want on room service." "I'll see you tomorrow." "Thanks." "Yeah." "Come on... come on... come..." "OK, it's just coming up..." "OK, there." "There it is." "See it?" "Yes." "Um, I see it." "There's... someone there." "OK, there's-there's more, just wait." "and there... there." "You see his outline?" "It's hard to tell, it could just be a shadow." "Oh, come on, there's someone there." "Maybe." "It's really hard to tell." "Tell me you believe this, OK?" "Believe what?" "This is the man that killed Alice." "This is the same man I saw on the night she was murdered." "What do you mean?" "I think there's ghosts in my house." " David!" " Look," "I know this sounds crazy, alright?" "Believe me, I know how fucking crazy this sounds." "But I've seen things, I've heard things, and it's the only rational explanation." " Umm..." "I don't think it is!" " Ye-yes, it is!" "OK, OK." "Wait until you hear this." "In the 1930's, they held seances, in my house, where the people said they saw a shadowy figure, a shadowy figure." "It's a coincidence, that's all." "The previous owner, right?" "The estate agent told us it was an old lady who went senile... but it wasn't." "They lied to us." "She was a young woman... who tried to burn her house down while her family was asleep." "Now, her son died in the fire, but she swore she didn't do it." "Like me, with Alice." "She said it was the demon." "She said a man she couldn't see tried to rape her." "She said he was a demon who lived behind the walls." " The walls, Claire." " Now, stop for a moment." "Stop for one moment... will you, and just... think about what you're saying?" "You think I'm having a nervous breakdown, don't you?" "No." "Well, maybe I am." "No." " Well, maybe." " You're just exhausted." " OK?" " Yeah." "Billy?" "Sophie?" "Billy, can you hear me?" " Dad, why did you not come to see us today?" " I'm sorry." "I wanted to, I just wasn't feeling very well." "Can you come and see us tomowwow?" "Yeah." "Yeah, promise." "What have you had to eat?" "We had burgers, chips, icecream and coke for dinner." "Wow!" "My tummy's got bigger!" "Look!" "Look how fat I am, dad!" "Billy, is Sophie back in the room with you?" "No, she's still in the shower." "Bi-Billy, I want you to move the laptop around, OK?" "Just move the laptop around so I can see the rest of the room, go on." "Please?" "'K... keep moving." "Keep moving the laptop." "That's it." "Good boy." "Move the... move a bit more." "That's it." "Just need to see the... the room." "What is that?" "Billy!" "BILLY!" "BILLY, GET OUT OF THE ROOM!" "BILLY!" "BILLY!" "BILLY!" "BILLY!" "How'd you get here so fast?" "Mr. Williams?" "I'm not sure if I can work here anymore." "I don't know what's going on." "And, uh... if it wasn't for Billy, I think I'd leave, right now." "I understand." "Yeah, you're right." "You should go." "I can't guarantee your safety, anymore, and, uh... it's not... it's not safe to be around us." "I don't want to leave Billy behind... but I really don't... think you're well, Mr. Williams." "Maybe if you told me what was going on, I could understand, or I could help." "Please, Sophie, just... you must go tomorrow." "You better sleep in here, with us, tonight." "I'll... take the floor, you can have the bed." "No, it's alright." "I'll be OK." "No." "No, no, please." "You won't..." "M..." "Mr. Williams, I want to... talk to you about this again in the morning." "A... about me leaving, I mean." "Yeah." "Goodnight." "Come on..." "Come on." "I've got you." "No.." " No!" "what are you doing?" "!" "Stop!" " Just come down the stairs!" "Let me out!" "Let me out!" "Mr. Williams!" "Where's dad?" "Who's in the house?" "I don't know." "No one." "Mr. Williams, let me out." "Let us out!" "Billy's afraid!" "I've checked everywhere." "Dad!" "Me and Billy were following somebody outside." "OK, then I heard you screaming." "They're trying to separate us." "Did you see anyone up there?" "Did you?" " Come on, Billy!" " No, no, no." "No." "OK, Billy's staying with me." "Sophie!" "Billy..." "Do you ever see other people in the house?" "Hey, if you saw someone... you know you have to tell me?" "Did you?" "Are you sure?" "Where's Sophie?" "She left this morning." "She's not coming back." " Billy, do you see that woman?" " Where?" "There." " Do you see her?" "She's hiding in the long grass." " I don't see anyone." " Are we going to see my teacher today?" " No." "Not today." " Billy." "Billy, get back." "Go on." "Get back." " Why?" "No-no, uh, just, OK... go-go, go and hide behind the wall." "Go on." "Turn around." "Turn around, count to 10, alright?" "One, two... go on." "One." "Two." "Four." "Ten!" "Is this a game of hide and seek?" "Can I open my eyes now?" " Claire." " David." "You OK?" "Hi, Billy!" "Hi!" "Uh." "I need to develop this." "What is it?" "It's nothing." "Just let me develop it." "It won't take me long." "You have to tell me what it is, first." "Please, Claire, alright?" "Don't make me beg." "You will need to see this." "Please." "OK." " It'll be a couple of days, though." " No." "No-no, I..." "I need to see it today, um... well..." "I need to see it now." "But it's fully booked in here." " Come on!" " OK, I'll get it done, I promise." "I'll even drop it out to you, when it's done, OK?" "Um..." "I've been thinking, um... maybe you should talk to someone?" "You know?" "Um, a bereavement counsellor, or something." "Just... uh, think about it, OK?" "I will." "If anyone walks here tonight, we'll see their footsteps." " It's like snow!" "Can I have a go?" " Yeah!" "Now, no one can get in, without us knowing." "You're like me." "What's with all the powder, Dave?" "It's flour, from the kitchen." "Oh... is that right?" "What's with all the flour, you making a cake?" "What do you want?" "Get your clothes on." "You're coming with me." "We found a hammer in the canal, with your fingerprints on it." "A hammer that belonged to your wife's lover." "He says it went missing the night she disappeared." "Can you explain that?" "There was a murder in my house in-in 1902." "What?" "You could look all of this is up." "And a man killed his whole family." "You understand me?" "And I think he was the one who did it, and I-I have proof, I've captured something on f-film." "It's a-it's a ghost." "You can see it in a few days." "As the Senior Child Welfare Officer, I have no choice but to recommend his case to Social" "Services and recommend that the child is taken into care." "Isn't that a little harsh?" "Mr. Williams has just lost his wife." "His symptoms are clearly part of a grieving process." "Are locking nannies in cupboards, and hearing voices, behind walls, part of the grieving process?" "It was only one nanny and people react differently to the death of a loved one, and, by the way, this is the same nanny that Mr. Williams caught smoking drugs in her room, so..." "No way!" "No way!" "Yes." "Yes... we can do that." "We'll wait for the report back from the psychiatrist and then we'll see what to do, after that." "I'm not going to a psychiatrist." "There's nothing wrong with me." " You have to." "We agreed to it." " You did." "I didn't." "I'm not going." "I have to get back to Billy." "Dad, who are those men?" "They're the police." "Don't look." "Is there somebody outside?" "No." "Dad?" "What?" "You'd never leave me, would you?" "No, of course not." "What if you die, like Mommy?" "What will happen to me, then?" "I'll never leave you, Billy." "Never." "And we'll always be together, you and me." "OK?" "Right now, close your eyes." "Did you watch it?" "No." "Would you... would you watch it with me?" "I'm..." "I'm afraid to watch it on my own." " OK." " OK." "Billy, we're gonna watch some TV." "Come on." "David, do you remember calling me last night?" " Last night?" "No." " You did." "You were... delirious, I could hardly recognize your voice." "You were crying." "You said... you wanted to tell me something, about Alice." "That wasn't me." "I didn't call you." "Come here, sit down." "If you did... hurt her, if you did..." "do it..." "I think you should just... get it over with." "Go to the police." "I'll go with you, if you want me to." "I'll tell them what a good person you are." "I'll help you." "Claire, they... they sacrificed children, in this room." "Did you know?" "David, what are you talking about?" "A baby's blood is the most powerful, you see?" "They would carry the bodies from here..." "through the sewer and dump them in the canal." "In the canal!" " They... they thought of everything." " David, stop it, stop it!" "Stop it!" "Stop it." "Look, look at me!" "Did you kill Alice?" "Just tell... just-just say you didn't do it..." "look me in the eye and say you didn't do it." "Say you didn't do it, please!" "Just tell me!" "Whatever you say, I'll believe you." "Whatever you say, anything you say, I'll believe you." "I'll believe you." "Just tell me." "Just tell me." "Just tell me." "Just watch this." "Then you'll understand." "Yeah, we'll watch this." "OK, there she is... do you see her?" "She's moving." "You see her?" "David... there's nothing there." "Wait." "Just wait... wait, there-there's more." "OK... there... there!" "Do you see, there?" "Look!" "What is that there?" "She's moving toward us, do you see her?" "What is it?" "Yes, I see-I see som..." "You see it?" "I see some..." "I told you." "OK?" "I told you I'm telling the truth, I'm..." "What is it?" "I'm not..." "I'm not going insane!" "Do you understand me?" " Look there!" " What is it?" "David." "David, turn it off!" "Turn it off, what is it?" "What is it?" "David, please!" "Turn it OFF!" "NO!" "Nooo!" "Stop!" "What's up then?" "It wasn't me." "We saw him go into the house with a woman, then we heard her screaming." "What have you done, David?" "What have you done?" "I didn't do it!" "Open the door, David!" "Mr. Williams!" "David!" "Open the door!" "Open the fucking door, David." "Upstairs!" "David!" "Come back, man!" "David!" "Stop!" "David!" "Stop it." "Stop it." "Look at me." "Look at me." "Look at me." "Look!" "Right, there she is." "There." "There!" "She's moving." "David... there's nothing there." "There, see?" "She's moving towards us." "DO YOU SEE HER?" "Here, look!" "I want you to see her." "You can see her!" "There's nothing there!" "Go that way!" "The master wants her." "Give her to him." "I couldn't help it." "You're a fucking whore!" "David, I love you!" "You're a fucking whore!" "That's what you are!" "I didn't mean for this to happen." "I need to leave, I need to take Billy with me." "No-no, David!" "David, I'm sorry!" " No, no, David." " Fucking bitch!" "No, David!" "Don't!" "Don't!" "No, David!" "David!" "David!" "Help!" "Help!" "David!" "David!" "Alice." "Alice." "David..." "You alright?" " When's the first viewing, then?" " Next Monday." " Does that give you enough time?" " Oh, yes, yes, the house will be cleared by Friday." "I don't want time wasters." " I only want serious people looking at this house." " Of course." "I feel the same." "Nana, can I go inside and get my dinosaur book?" "Yes, yes-yes, you can go, but don't be long, we're going, now." "I have a list of appointments already lined up for next week." "Billy." "Billy, over here!" "It's daddy." "I'm here with your mother." "Do you miss us?" "Do you wanna stay here, with us?" "Do you wanna stay here with us, forever?" "I love you, Billy." "I love you."

"Is anyone else troubled by the Spider-Man theme song?" "Why would it trouble you?" "It's, like, your third favorite cartoon theme song." "It is, right behind" "♪ Do do-do do-do, Inspector Gadget... ♪ ...and ♪ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ♪" "♪ Heroes in a half-shell" "♪ Turtle power!" "However, the Spider-Man lyrics posit that" ""Spider-Man, Spider-Man does whatever a spider can."" "Yeah, so?" "I can think of many things Spider-Man can't do that a spider can." "One: crawl in your ear and die." "Two:" "legally leave Guatemala without a passport." "Three: have sex with a spider." "Can we change the subject?" "Spiders give me the jeebie-jeebies." "It's "heebie-jeebies."" "I know, but that sounds anti-Semitic." "Anyway, I was thinking we could have a little film festival tonight." "The theme: movies that killed their franchises." "Oh." "Like Jaws 4, Indiana Jones 4, Daredevil 1." "Miss Congeniality 2:" "Armed and Fabulous." "I mean, you know a movie's bad when my homegirl Sandy B. can't save it." "Penny's working tonight;" "I'm in." "Not me." "I'm having dinner with Bernadette and her parents." "Fun." "We know how much you love that." "It's torture." "Especially with her dad." "We have nothing in common." "You know what I like to do when I'm forced to speak with those beneath my intellectual station?" "I bring up an interesting topic, like the difference between Spider-Man and spiders." "Thanks, Sheldon." "I'll try that with my father-in-law." "No, you can't use that one." "That's mine." "Uh, try this one for an ice-breaker." "Uh, despite popular lore, there is no place in the continental United States, Alaska or Hawaii from which one can dig straight through the center of the earth and come up in China." "Great, thank you." "Actually, you can't have that one either." "It's too good." "Sorry." "What about you, Sheldon?" "Do you have any plans tonight?" "Sadly, yes." "Amy's taking me to a memorial service." "It's for one of her colleagues who is of Asian descent, so my planned conversational gambit is to casually remark that no matter how deep they dig his grave, he'll never make his way back to China." "That should lighten the mood." "What can I say?" "I put the "fun" in funeral." "♪ Our whole universe was in a hot, dense state ♪" "♪ Then nearly 14 billion years ago expansion started..." "Wait!"

"I'm not allowed to wear my Silver Surfer neck tie, but you can wear a bathrobe?" "I think I'm too sick to go to the funeral." "You're sick?" "You poor kid." "Well, see ya." "Sheldon, aren't you gonna take care of me?" "Me?" "No." "No, I'm not that kind of doctor." "But our relationship agreement clearly states that when one of us is sick, the other must take care of them." "Oh, I see the confusion." "No, the intent behind that clause was to force you to take care of me when I'm ill." "When you're feeling better, you'll think that's funny." "Never mind." "Good night, Sheldon." "Amy." "Amy." "Amy." "I made a commitment in writing to comfort you in times like this." "Additionally, you are my girlfriend, and I care about your well-being." "Thank you, Sheldon." "You're welcome." "Now let's get this over with." "So, how have you been?" "Fine." "Good." "Fine is good." "How you liking retirement?" "It's fine." "I'm sensing a theme." "You ever really think about the Spider-Man theme song?" "How's that dinner coming?" "I just put it in." "It's gonna be a while." "I like rare chicken." "Let's do this." "You could die." "Death by chicken." "That's a pretty "fowl" way to go." "Here's another beer, honey." "Thank you." "So, Mrs. Rostenkowski, you took that trip to the Grand Canyon." "How was it?" "It was good." "Had no idea you were the chatty one." "102.2." "Exactly what it was half an hour ago." "It's like you're not even trying to get better." "Sheldon, you don't get over the flu in half an hour." "Well, not with that attitude." "I have to say, I'm finding your bedside manner a little lacking." "I'm sorry." "I just want you to get better as soon as possible." "And with that goal in mind, let me ask you a question." "Do you believe in the placebo effect?" "Of course I do." "There have been many studies proving its validity." "Great." "Now, this may look like a Tic Tac but it is really a powerful medication specifically designed to cure your illness as well as freshen your breath." "Sheldon, this isn't helping." "Why don't you just let me get some rest." "How can you sleep?" "I'm not done making you feel better." "I still have to put a cold rag on your head, sing to you and apply VapoRub to your chest." "Y-You want to rub something on my chest?" "Yes." "All over it." "Maybe we should start with that." "Now you're being a responsible patient." "Now, you may notice some tingling." "Oh, I'm counting on it." "Oh." "Okay, dig in." "Hold up." "Bless us, O Lord for these Thy gifts which we are about to receive from Thy bounty through Christ our Lord." "Amen." "Took the words right out of my mouth." "So, Dad, have you done any fishing lately?" "I'm going next weekend." "Oh, you like to fish?" "Yes." "Sure." "I can hear it in your voice." "Oh, if he didn't like it, he wouldn't go." "You know, I hadn't thought of that." "Help me." "Hey, Dad, maybe you could take Howard fishing sometime." "Give you guys a chance to get to know each other better." "No, no." "We know each other well enough." "He's been talking my ear off all night." "Howie, I think you'd have fun." "Fine, you can tag along." "Terrific." "My two favorite fellas gone fishin'." "Well, hang on a second, Bernie." "Next weekend, we have that thing." "What thing?" "You know, the thing." "Oh, that thing." "No, I cancelled that thing." "All right, it's settled." "You and I are going fishing." "Great." "Thanks for the help." "I've never even been fishing." "This is gonna be a disaster." "If you don't want to look foolish doing something, you should practice." "Do you know how many beef Wellingtons I made by myself before I invited you guys over?" "I'll give you a hint." "You can see them here, here... and here." "Raj is probably right." "You should get someone to give you some pointers." "Do either of you guys know how to fish?" "No." "But if you catch anything," "I know how to steam it in banana leaves." "Come on, we must know somebody who can do manly stuff like this." "S'up?" "Step one: worms." "Ew!" "Okay, right there, "ew" is one of the things you're not gonna want to say in front of your father-in-law." "It's right up there with "icky" and "get it away."" "Now pick one up." "Really?" "You're gonna have to do it when you're fishing." "Okay." "What are you waiting for?" "I don't know, for them to die of natural causes." "Just pick up a worm and put him on this hook." "Fine." "There." "I'm no expert, but I think the hook has to go through the worm." "Fine." "Sorry, Mr. Worm." "Sherm." "Sherm the Worm." "Hey, don't name him." "Just jab a hook in his face." "You got this, buddy." "Yeah, come on, Howard." "Hook that worm." "You can do it." "That's great." "Cheerleading-- way to man things up." ""And the control group displayed" ""significantly fewer genetic abnormalities." ""But, because of flaws in the experimental design" ""relating to environment and diet, they lived inconclusively ever after."" "The end." "That was great." "Rub my chest again." "No." "I need to get you down for a nap." "For some reason, that VapoRub gets you all fired up." "How's the poor thing?" "Oh, I'm hanging in there." "Thanks for asking." "Okay, Amy, I brought you some drugs we were working on in the lab." "This is proving really good for congestion, but there's a slight chance it can make your tears burn like acid, so if you take it-- happy thoughts." "Uh, I'm going to draw you a soothing bath." "Where's your bath thermometer?" "I don't have a bath thermometer." "Fine." "Then I'm going to draw you a nerve-wracking bath of indeterminate temperature." "This is a really good expectorant." "Although some test subjects reported lactating uncontrollably when they heard music." "Okay, okay, here's the deal." "I don't need your medicine." "I'm not sick." "I don't understand." "I got better two days ago." "It's just been so nice having Sheldon take care of me." "So you've just been lying to him?" "See the stuff in my nose?" "Rubber cement." "I don't mean to be judgy, but this is the kind of thing lunatics do." "All right." "I'll tell him." "Amy, would you be strong enough to bathe yourself, or do you need my help?" "I'll tell him tomorrow." "Mama needs a bath." "Now, let's assume, by some miracle, you actually catch a fish." "You're going to have to know how to gut it." "So, what you're going to do is you're going to take your knife, slice him right up the belly." "You want me to stop?" "No, I'm fine." "Keep going." "All right." "Now, you don't want to cut too deep into its guts, or the blood will just squirt all over your face." "Oh, my God." "What is with you guys?" "It's not our fault." "Our dads never did anything like this with us." "What, never?" "My dad was an anthropologist." "The only father-son time he spent was with a 2,000-year-old skeleton of an Etruscan boy." "I hated that kid." "Mine just took me to his gynecology office." "I got so bored, I'd put vaginal lubricant on the bottom of my shoes and pretend I was ice-skating." "Yeah, well, my quality father-son time was spending my adolescence looking out the window waiting for my dad to come back someday." "Yeah, okay, Howard wins." "You know, maybe we didn't have opportunities like this when we were growing up, but right now, there's a dad that wants to take you on a fishing trip." "You're right." "I should do this." "Great." "Here you go." "What you're going to do is you're going to stick your thumb down its throat, grab the guts and pull." "Here we go." "Oh, look, it's a female." "You can see all the eggs." "♪ I'm walking on sunshine ♪" "♪ Whoa, oh" "♪ And don't it feel good?" "♪" "♪ Oh, yeah" "♪ And don't it feel good?" "♪" "Oh, Sheldon, am I glad you're back." "Taking a turn for the worst." "I think I'm going to need another bath." "I'm surprised to hear that." "See, the other day, I was concerned that you weren't recovering, so while you were sleeping," "I took a cheek swab and had it cultured in the lab." "Oh?" "I got the results back." "Have you developed any of the following symptoms?" "A growing nose, or perhaps a warm sensation in the trouser region?" "Also known as full-blown "liar, liar, pants on fire."" "All right, all right." "But I really was sick at the beginning." "It's just been so nice having you take care of me." "It hurts that you would lie to me, Amy." "I thought our relationship was based on trust and a mutual admiration that skews in my favor." "I feel terrible I did this." "It pains me to say it, but I think some form of penalty is in order, so as to discourage this type of behavior in the future." "I suppose that's fair." "What do you suggest?" "In a perfect world, I'd lock you in a stockade in the public square." "That probably requires a permit." "I could not be allowed to go to the opening of the next Star Trek movie." "Oh, that seems overly harsh." "You gave in to a hun weakness." "You didn't kill a man." "You know, it's a tad old-school, but my father was not one to spare the rod when my brother would sneak into his truck and drink his driving whiskey." "Are you saying you want to spank me?" "I don't want to." "But it looks like you left me no choice." "That's true." "I've been a very bad girl." "Hi-ho, hi-ho, it's off to fish we go." "That's what you're wearing?" "No good?" "The guy at the sporting goods store said these are what fishermen wear." "Maybe in cartoons." "Wish I had known that before I posted all those pictures on Facebook." "All right, let's hit the road." "I wouldn't mind shooting some ducks in the morning." "Wait, now we're shooting things?" "I like using a big shell." "You can't eat them afterwards, but it's fun watching them blow up." "Sir, I'm flattered that you invited me, and I really want you to like me, but..." "I don't think this trip is the way to do it." "And I can't return these things if there's chunks of duck all over them." "So, why'd you agree to come?" "'Cause Bernadette made me." "I tried to back out, too." "My wife said I had to go." "Really?" "Your wife makes you do stuff?" "You're a big, scary cop." "You're an astronaut, and your wife makes you do things, and she's only four feet tall." "So, what do we do now?" "They expect us to go away for the weekend." "Ah..." "There's an Indian casino near Palm Springs." "You know how to shoot craps?" "No, but I'm not a stranger to dice games." "I was the Temple Beth-El Hebrew School Yahtzee champion." "Mazel tov." "I'll teach you how to play." "Really?" "Thank you, sir." "Call me Mike." "Okay." "Oh, boy, we're just married to a couple of ballbusters, huh, Mike?" "That's my wife and daughter you're talking about." "Great couple of gals." "I wouldn't go that far." "Are you prepared to receive your punishment?" "One second." "I want to put on some music." "Why?" "I don't want to disturb the people next door while you discipline me." "Very well, then." "Get over my knee." "Let's begin." "Oh, my." "Excuse me." "You're not supposed to be enjoying this." "Then maybe you should spank me harder." "Maybe I will." "Ooh!" "== sync, corrected by elderman =="

"Falling is the first thing I feel." "Distant voices echo inside my head." "Their orders are clear, and yet all I can think about is the others." "Remiel." "Uriel." "Amitiel." "Ithuriel." "Raphael." "Michael." "Each one traveled the same path." "What was their fate?" "What awaits me on the other side?" "They have gone to a place where the light is cursed and darkness blinds the soul." "This is a place where even angels fear to tread." "Forgive me." "Freedom is the potential to challenge yourself far beyond the constraints of traditional rule." "We draw strength from our passions." "We're driven by desire." "Even hatred can be a worthy ally when used against an enemy." "And yet, we are told to turn our backs on these things," "the very feelings, emotions, that make us all human." "Sounds like you've been listening to the wrong source." "It would appear so, now, wouldn't it?" "You don't like me very much, do you, Baliel?" "Strange, because I hear no complaints from the others." "Is it something I've done?" "More like something you haven't." "Then let me put your mind to rest." "You did a good thing to bring him here." " I'm not sure the others will agree." " Oh, they will." "And as a sign of my appreciation, I have a gift for you." "Do you remember the Arc, Amitiel?" "I know you were here." "Gabriel." "If you are reading this, then I have failed." "We are far from grace, further than I could ever imagine." "You will feel things that will cloud your judgment." "This enemy within is strong and unpredictable." "Control these emotions, or the fight cannot be won." "The others have failed." "Learn from them, but do not follow." "You are the last." "Michael." "Molloch." " Be silent." " Gabriel!" "Close your mind." " Silence yourself." " You can hear me." "Silence your mind." " They're coming for you." " Gabriel..." "You can hear me." " Silence your mind." "Now!" " Silence your mind." "Now!" "You looking for someone?" "Interesting." "What do you want?" "I'm looking for an old friend of mine." "Goes by the name of Uriel." "Not here." "It's very important that I speak with her." "She may be in danger." "The only danger here is what you've brought with you." "Can you at least just tell me if she's still alive?" "The answer's yes." " Now I've told you all I know." " Then tell me where she is." "I've told you all I know." "Now it's time for you to leave." "Where is she?" "This time, no lies." "You can't pull that trigger." "You're not allowed." "And why's that?" "Your orders are to destroy the Fallen and bring light back to this place." "You can't kill innocents." "It's against your code." "So get this fucking thing out of my face." "Firstly, Uriel is a he, not a she." "Secondly, there's not a fucking chance in hell he's ever coming back." "Where has he gone?" "In here, where no goddamn voices or feelings or anything else can get at him." "Why would he do that?" "You felt it the second you arrived." "It's the burden of being real, mortal." "They didn't tell us, Gabe, what it would be like." "They didn't tell us how fucking hard it would be." "If you're Uriel, then why can't I feel you?" "Because I've learned ways to" "silence myself." "Then you've turned your back on the order." "You've betrayed your oath." "Well, I am only human, after all." "You are an Arc and a servant of the light..." "Put into human form to walk amongst the living, I know." "Have you ever felt fear, Gabriel?" "Because I do." "I feel it all the fucking time." "I hate this place." "I hate myself." "And before I arrived, I didn't even know what that feeling was." "You can't succumb to it." "You have felt the love and contentment of a pure existence." "That is where you draw your strength." "And where's that?" "Can you see it?" "All I see is a dead world, run by the Fallen." "And you know what?" "These people seem to like it here." "They actually seem to enjoy this existence." "So, why should I fight it?" " Why should I die for them?" " Because they don't know any better." "It is up to us to show them that there is another way." "That it is worth fighting for." "I give you two weeks, then we'll see what you say." "Now, how about you get the fuck out of my face, because, whilst you may be bound by rules, I am not." "You know the other great thing they forget to tell you on the way down?" "If you die here as an Arc or a Fallen, then you're dead forever." "Even the soul dies." "And I ain't risking that." "Neither should you." "This place is surrounded by darkness." "The light has no way of knowing what goes on down here." "You can't blame them." "There's one thing I forgot." "I'm sorry, Uriel." "I had to do this." "I need you to show yourself." "Heal this wound." "Fuck you." "Please, Uriel." "Heal this wound." "You can't let this body die." "You swore an oath." "Now, do it!" "Uriel?" "Watch the door." "They may be coming." "Pumps like blood through the veins of this entire city." "You must be very proud." "If only we could sleep." "You be here about the obeah." "I be thinking Molloch is dead." "It seems they've sent another." "The presence we heard earlier belonged to the Arc, Gabriel." "Thee be knowing all about these things." "With Michael gone, all their hopes will now lay with our new friend." "Unfortunately for them, Michael was always the stronger of the two." "Well, we all know what happened to him." "I still sense the new ángel spirit is strong in this place." "Which is why we will wait." "Let him fall prey to the good nature of this city." "And if, in time, he still has the will for a battle, then that's exactly what we will give him." "Fuck waiting!" "The city is ours." "We kill this Arc and go home!" "Patience, Ahriman." "Try to think of it as a game." "They move, we move." "Until all the pieces fall into place." "I don't play fucking games." "You have to trust that this is the safest option for all of us." "This is safe." "And this is safe." "Well, you know what would be the safest thing for you to do right now?" "It would be to sit down and shut the fuck up." "You be in a funny mood tonight, boss." "I just look forward to this being over." "No more conflict." " Pass me one of those." " You sure you want one?" "Just because I'm a fucking ángel doesn't mean I can't smoke." "When I was back in the city, you spoke to me." "How did you know I was there?" "The same way you knew I was here." "It's your connection to the source." "You drew power from the light in order to listen." "Problem is, that also exposes your presence." "And you know a way to hide it." "The Fallen can only sense us if we're in close proximity, that's why I live so far out here." "If you go using your powers, drawing from the source, you're gonna be like a beacon for them." "And chances are the whole fucking lot will come down on you at once." "So you have to conceal your true self, far enough so they can't see you, but not so far as you can't come back." "Is that what happened to you?" "Not exactly." "But it did contribute." "I want you to close your eyes." "Now, open again." "Right now, you're an ángel inside of a human form." "What we're trying to do is hide that fact." "So, to everyone out there, you're completely human." "I want you to search inside, focus on your spiritual self, connect and feel it as a whole." "Now, close your eyes." "There you go." " Yeah?" " Because it's like, I get them in, it's up to you to keep them in." "I say, take pride in every part of your life." "Hey, Jadey, what's the matter?" "You don't say good-bye no more." "Well, how about smoking my pole, sweetheart?" "Fucking deaf bitch." "It's a strange sensation." "I feel slow, more heavy." "In this form you'll still be able to listen, but that's about it." "If we can hide ourselves, can the Fallen do the same?" "Yeah." "What happened to the others?" "Remiel was killed before I arrived." "Besides Amitiel, it's hard to know." "I've heard nothing of Michael." "I think Raphael is still around, but he's in hiding somewhere on the East Side." "What happened to Amitiel?" "She lost her wings." "Became mortal." "Sammael is here." "He leads the Fallen." "She went after him but he was too strong." "Instead of killing her, he gave her a choice." "Fall from grace or eternal death." "So she fell, and now he owns her." "Why would he spare one of us?" "He wanted her body." "Sammael used her till he was tired of her, then forced her to work as a hooker." "I know what you're thinking, and you shouldn't." "Essentially, Amitiel's dead." "She calls herself Jade now." "Where does she work?" "No way, Gabe." "She's not your concern, not anymore." "Uriel, just tell me." "There's no turning back for her." "It's a waste of your time." "Don't question my resolve, Uriel." "Where is she?" "I ran into her at a place called the Funhouse." "It's in the hub of the city, near the furnaces." "Asmodeus runs it." "I can't let this happen to her." "Who?" "Amitiel?" "She doesn't even fucking exist anymore!" "Even in the state you were in, you still helped me." "I have to try." "I thank you for your words and I promise I'll return soon." "Gabe, you're chasing a ghost." "Remember what you were sent here to do." "It's not about us!" "You haven't even..." "Well, at least remember to eat!" "You'll get hungry." "And if you don't eat, you'll die!" "Same old Gabe." "There's nothing wrong with looking nice, man." "I mean, it's a fucking service industry." "These people come here just to fuck, right?" "It doesn't matter." "It's all in the presentation, right?" "Hi!" "How are you, sir?" "Enjoy your stay." "See?" "Treat them nice." "They tell their friends." "It's fucking like talking to a car park." "You got a light?" "Hi." " I'm looking for a girl named Jade." " She's out on a private call." " But I can get one of our other girls to..." " Can you tell me where she is?" "I just said she's out on a private..." "Yeah, I know, I heard that, but it's important." "Bitches, they come, they go." "Room eight?" "You been here before?" "No." "Nice to see you've dressed up for the occasión." "Here you go." "Give this gentleman half-price." "I've got a feeling we'll be seeing him again." "So, do you want to see another girl?" "Actually, I'll come back." "Thank you." "Oh, Jade, remember you're booked tonight." "Scampi's Motel, room 36." "It's two guys, one at a time." "You got that?" "That was quick." "What's the quickest way to Scampi's Motel?" "About four blocks down, turn right, across the street." "You're welcome." "Come again." "Nice to have you here." "What a friendly fellow." "Fuck." "Hi." "So, this is the lovely Jade." "In the flesh." "So, how do you guys want to do this?" "Take off your clothes." "Candy told you guys about the rule of one at a time, yeah?" "Yeah." "But unfortunately, that's not what we want." "Really?" "Then maybe you've got the wrong girl." "I don't think so." "Your name's Jade, right?" "Well, is it?" "Yeah." "You do work at the Funhouse, which means you are a whore?" "You do fuck for money, yeah?" "Then that means your real name is Amitiel, and you used to be an ángel." "Oh, sorry." "Arc, as you like to call yourselves." "So, you see, Jade, we are both going to enjoy the pleasure of your divine company, whether you like it or not." "I prefer it rough, so I hope you do, too." "This meat's a little tough." "What do you say, Marcus?" "Fuck you!" "See what happens when you make all this fucking noise?" "Who is it?" "You got a tongue in your fucking head?" "Who is it?" "Help!" " Where am I?" " In a safe place here." "You've been unconscious for a while." "I've got to get back to work." "No." "You have to stay and rest." "I've spoken to Asmodeus." "He says he wants you to stay here until you get better." "You're so full of shit." "What did you say your name was?" "Gabriel." "Did we fuck?" "No." "Were we supposed to?" "No." "Good." "I sense the darkness inside you." "It clouds your soul but I know it takes away your pain." "I'm not supposed to interfere." "You have a right to choose, but I'm not sure you ever did." "So, if I am wrong, please forgive me." "This will hurt a lot." "You had no right to do that!" "I won't believe you are what they say." "Did they tell you I lost my wings?" "Did they tell you I'm a smackie?" "That I fuck for money?" "They said you had the courage to fight Sammael." "You fought well but you lost." "There is no disgrace in that." "If only they could see me now, huh?" "Where the fuck are my clothes?" "I won't let anything else happen to you." "You don't even know Sammael's power!" "He's grown stronger than all of us combined." "If Michael couldn't defeat him, what chance do you have?" "I have seen and done things here that..." "I can't even believe this place exists." "I mean, I knew it was going to be hard but..." "And I can't ever go back." "I can never go back." "I will never see the light again." "You're wrong." "Just because you're not an Arc, it doesn't mean you can't return as a soul." "What does that mean?" "What?" "I wait my days out here?" "I grow old, I fucking die?" "I can't even kill myself because it's against the rules." "I could be here for another 50 years, Gabe!" "That is nothing compared to an eternity of darkness." "How long you been here for?" "A few days?" "A week?" "I've been here for two and a half years, and that feels longer than eternity." "I feel like they've just betrayed us, they've just left us here to die." "And once you've been killed, that is it." "What then?" "You will see the light return before this week is through." "I'm sure Michael said the exact same thing." "You are troubled." "Why does this not surprise me?" "Did you feel him just now?" "Yes, he lives in the North." "Somewhere in the slums." "Then tell me why we wait." "You lust for his blood." "So, right now, he still possesses much strength." "And I can't possibly risk losing anyone else from our little family." "You could take him on your own." "I grow weary of your hesitation." "There are others just like him, but they are broken, some beyond repair." "The only resolve will be once they are all dead." "I need him to bring them out, show them they can shine just bright enough for all of us to see." "Then I am mistaken." "Yes, you are." "And, if you ever question such things again," "I will rip your tongue out and paint my name in blood across your back." "I see you have some friends here." "Would you mind introducing me?" " I missed you." " You've missed Amitiel, not me." "They're not as different as you think." "You don't get it, do you?" "Everything here works against us, Gabe." "We fall prey to the things we never even knew." "Fear, hate, the very things that make him, make all of them, stronger." "Do we not have the compassión to overcome this?" "I honestly don't think so." "The city itself is the best defense they have." "What are you thinking about?" "I think I'm hungry." "What is this place?" "Soup kitchen." "They help the homeless." "We can't eat here." "These people need food more than us." "In case you hadn't noticed, we're kind of desperate ourselves." "Come on." " Want bread?" " Yeah." "Here you go." "Thanks." "Do you know the guy who served us?" "Does he seem familiar?" " No." " Well, he's been here a long time." "That's lthuriel." "Another who surrendered to the fear." "And after he'd heard of my fate, he chose exile over confrontation." "I can't..." "Don't be so ardent to judge others, Gabriel." "You haven't been here long enough to earn that right." "I don't intend to either." "How can you turn your back on us like this?" "You swore an oath." "Am I the bad guy here?" "You want to point this fucking thing at me?" "After all we've done for you people!" "Gabriel, stop!" "Give him back the gun." "He's just doing his job." "What a shame you can't do yours." "Am I the only one who still believes in this cause?" "Am I?" "I'm doing the best I can." "Well, what else was I supposed to do?" "I would've been killed." "It's the risk we take." "All of us." "I don't have your strength, Gabriel." "I thought I did, but I was wrong." "I'm doing the absolute best I can, here." "I'm still trying to help these people." "With a soup kitchen?" "That is this big, compared to what you're supposed to do." "Kill the Fallen." "Bring back the light." "Go home." "It's not that fucking hard, lthuriel." "Well, if it was so easy, then why are you here?" "Why have the six of us before you failed?" "I'm doing the best that I can." "I'm sorry." "It's good to see you." "Raphael is here." "Take me to him." "These passages lead under the entire city." "We found them when we were setting up the soup kitchen." " This is Maggie." " Hi." "She's been looking after Raphael." "How long has he been like this?" "A few months." "Leave us." "Maggie will be just outside here." "Shame you had to be here." "Yeah." "What happened to you?" "Sammael shot me." "And why can't you heal?" "Nothing left." "Can't do it." "No." "No." "Save your power." "Every time you do something, you lose more." "You'll die if I don't." "You'll need your strength to face them." "I had my chance." "Then forgive me." "No!" "What have you done?" "I saved your life." "You never listened to me, did you?" "By doing that, you've probably just exhausted half your strength, not to mention the fact you've now exposed our presence to the Fallen." " My strength will come back." " No, it won't." "The longer you're down here, the weaker your connection to the source becomes." "Every time you do something like what you just did, you close that hole up faster." "You should've waited." "I could have stayed alive long enough for you to fight Sammael, and if you'd won, if you'd returned the light back as the governing ruler, then we could have all gone home." "Even those who turned their backs." "You talk as if I've already lost." "As it stands, you have no chance of beating Sammael." "His power has no equal." "This is the lesson that both Amitiel and I had to learn." "Michael, too." "Sammael has found a way of harnessing the collective energies from each of the Fallen." "He's become stronger, faster." "Worse still, his presence is now always cloaked, so you'll never be able to find him." "Then I will take the Fallen, one by one." "Deplete his strength through them." "You are but one." "They are five, possibly six." "Less two." "Molloch and Balan." "That still leaves Asmodeus, Ahriman, Lilith." "I know where Asmodeus hides." "Tell me of the others." "It's fucking hideous." "She's not finished yet!" "You know Jade's gone missing?" "And Balan is dead as well." "I thought as much." "I've organized a gathering with the others." "It appears that Gabriel has done exactly as we'd hoped." "Let me just freshen up." "What happened to Michael?" "Though none of us actually saw him, we felt him the night that he arrived, a force of consummate strength." "And just, over time, his signal grew weaker and just eventually faded away." "I'm sure I felt a small surge the night that he fought Sammael, but then, since, nothing." "I know what he meant to you, Gabe." "These thoughts of Michael will only cause you more confusión." "He's gone." "You have to stay focused." "Michael was our greatest warrior." "Rivaled only by yourself." "If Sammael is truly all-powerful, then why does he wait?" "He's had many a chance to take me and yet..." "I've told you all I know." "If, after all of this, you still think there's a chance you can win," "I will follow you to whatever fate, as will the others." "Then believe in me." "That's all I ask." "Hey!" "You be moving things along, I'll be seeing the boss man soon." "Come." "Whenever you're ready, Ahriman." "He is stronger than you think." "Uriel lives on the outskirts, somewhere near the old drive-in." "The other is near the docks, hiding amongst the homeless trash." "Once they are deceased, I will take Gabriel." "Then let's just hope we're not too late." "This is a war." "Sacrifice is what victory is measured upon." "And if you don't like it, you could always return home." "I'm sure your master would love to hear how you defied me." "I'm sure he would, too." "By the end of this day, the balance will forever reside with us." "Now, I fight for a voice of freedom, and you fight to preserve control, but rest assured, we are all on the same side." "Light will never return to this place." "These souls are ours." "Hi." "Hi." "You disappeared on me." "I just needed some time to think." "Did you draw this?" "Yeah." "It's a first try." "Do you like it?" "It's beautiful." "But I don't look like that." "You do to me." "Watch where you're fucking going!" "Careful, old man." "Come on." "You okay?" "Bread with your soup?" "Raph, what do we do?" "Well done." "Frankly, more like medium-rare." "Where to now?" "We go left." " Another?" " Raphael!" "Leave him to me." "We're almost there." "Come on." "Let's move, let's go." "Come on." "This shouldn't be here." "Don't make a sound." "Just wait a moment." "Raphael." " What's the matter?" "What's wrong?" " They're dead." "Dead." " Who?" " They're dead." " Who?" " I killed them." " Gabe!" " It's my fault." "Gabe, you got to talk to me." "Listen, you got to talk to me." " Gabe, listen." " No!" " Look at you!" " You don't understand!" "Tinkerbell, Captain Hook, watch the rain." "Hey, you're back again." "Asmodeus!" "Where is he?" "Top floor." "I don't know which room." "Well, look at you, all big and macho," "carrying that huge fucking gun around." "How does that make you feel?" "Powerful?" "Actually, don't answer that." "I can see it in your eyes." "Are you angry with me, Gabriel?" "Have I done something to offend you?" "I hope this isn't about your friends, is it?" "Because, I mean, if you didn't want them dead, why did you lead us to them?" "So, it's going to be like that, is it?" "Such a shame." "You and me, we could've had something." "Now, you're just playing hard to get." "After tonight, I'll never see you again." "I don't want that to happen." "When you go back, don't tell them what went on down here." "I won't remember, anyway." "We never do." "Good-bye, Jade." "How many you want?" "One, two, three?" "I'll take all of it." "Now." "All that." "You wouldn't have enough money, let alone enough friends, to use all that." "Then let's make a deal." "How can you just sit there and let this happen?" " Asmodeus is dead because of you!" " Asmodeus is dead because he was weak." " Just like the others." " Because they believed you could end this." "I always knew we could never trust you." "Your presence makes me fucking sick!" "Nice to see you again." "Sammael!" "You are growing weaker." "I can sense this in you." "I'm not the only one." "I have no desire to fight you, Gabriel." "Shoot me if you must, but I ask that you listen to what I have to say first." "You lie!" "I'd never trust your kind." "If only that were true." "See, we are the same, you and I." "A city full of Fallen that should've killed you, and they didn't." "Why?" "Because of me." "I'm the only reason you're still alive, Gabriel." "I know you can sense me." "Your heart denies it, but your soul knows the truth." "All you have to do is say my name." "We were born in a world controlled by fear and rules." "We were slaves to a higher purpose." "Tell me." "What is the point of being created just so we can serve someone else's wishes?" "All I've done is set myself free." "Now I beg you to do the same." " This can't be true." " But you know it is." "Your instincts have always served you well." "Don't deny them now, just say my name." "I love you like a brother." "I taught you everything you know." "I can hear it in your thoughts." "Say it." "Say it!" "Michael." "Why?" "You've seen the things I've seen." "You've felt the things I've felt." "Well, I, too, came here with a heart full of love." "By the time I fought Sammael, I consumed him with hatred." "I was powerful beyond any who had come before me." "You killed the others." "Raphael, Uriel..." " They were weak!" " They were your brothers!" "They would never have understood!" "They only wanted a war that could never be won." "Not by their kind." "I knew only you had the strength to be a leader." "Now think about it." "You and I can rule this place together and the light will never know." "In time we could grow powerful enough to crush it completely." "These people are free." "And now, so are you." "I thought you were dead." "I was right." "You break my heart, Gabriel." "You know it doesn't have to be this way!" "You've sealed your fate, Michael!" "I did all of this, everything," "for you!" "You forced Amitiel to give up her wings!" "Sammael did that, not me!" "You slaughtered your kin!" "Open your fucking eyes." "There was no other way." "Don't follow their path." "The war is over, Gabriel." "No!" "No!" "We can still go back, Michael!" "Don't let this be for nothing!" "Never." "Look at your eyes, Michael." "Look what you have become." "Trying to heal, Gabriel?" "But you can't." "Can you?" "Because you wasted all your energy on the others." "Of all the things you could have been," "you chose this." "Why, Gabriel?" "I give you everything and you still deny me." "Free will." "The light's not about control." "It's about choice." "We came here to guide these people." "Nothing more." "But they don't know the truth, Gabriel." "They do." "They know more so than us." "Being human." "I've felt the things you felt, Michael." "But there is so much more you haven't." "You think you're free, but you're not." "I love you, Michael, but I hate what you've become." "Accept the dawn and bleed with me, brother." "I forgive you, Michael." "My gift to you." "Is this what you want?" "Is this what you wanted?" "You have shown me everything but this." "How can I return with all that has happened?" "Michael." "Amitiel." "I need to feel this." "I need to understand how this happened." "In time, you will form new Arcs and all this will be forgotten." "I can't let that happen." "I won't let it happen." "You threw me far from grace and now I fall unto it." "I hope I see you again." "Falling is the last thing an ángel feels." "A distant voice still echoes inside my head." "But for the first time, it is my own." "Forgive me."

"You`ll be late." "We`re leaving, Mom." "As I leave...." "What kind of pies do you have?" "We got apple, pecan cherry, key lime." "Which do you recommend?" "The key lime`s great, but it`s an acquired taste." "I ain`t had key lime pie in 10 years." "When you had it, did you like it?" "No, but I was a completely different person back then." "Let`s give that key lime pie a day in court and a big glass of non-fat milk, if you please." "Should I make that two pieces?" "No, no, Rosie." "My name`s not Rosie, it`s Mabel!" "Whatever." "Goddamn, this son of a bitch is running hot." "Go on inside. l`ll check it out." "All right. l`ll get a cold one for you." "What the hell is that?" "That?" "A bitch out of hell, son." "Take a run at her." "Miller, Mabel." "Coming up." "That`s one sweet piece of meat." "Her name`s Mallory." "Mallory, whatever." "Who gives a shit?" "I call it pussy." "Don`t stop, darling." "I was just getting started!" "I think she`s sweet on you!" "Are you flirting with me?" "Beep, beep." "You want a piece of me?" "Your move!" "lt`s your move, fucker!" "Go!" "Son of a bitch!" "lt`s not polite to point." "Because my woman mops up the floor with your buddy, is no reason to join in." "How sexy am I now?" "Flirty boy?" "How sexy am I now?" "You made my shit list!"

"I love you, Mallory!" "Stars are coming out." "Look up in the brassy sky." "And there they are, like loony pocket change." "You bet on something you wish you had $10,000 to bet on." "Something where the odds are good." "Betting all those stars don`t mean shit...." "Whole world`s coming to an end, Mal." "I see angels, Mickey." "They`re coming down for us from heaven." "And I see you riding a big red horse." "And you`re driving the horses, whipping them and they`re spitting and frothing at the mouth." "They`re coming right at us." "And I see the future." "There`s no death." "`Cause you and I are angels." "That is poetry." "I love you, Mal." "I know you do, baby." "l`ve loved you since the day we met." "Hi, Dad." "How was work?" "What work?" "l`m unemployed?" "Where the...have you been?" "You look nice, Mallory." "You look like...." "Thanks, Mom. l`m going now." "l`ll be back at midnight, okay?" "What are you wearing, a broomstick and a trash bag?" "Why don`t you put some meat on you?" "Any lighter, you`ll be Miss Ethiopia." "Where do you think you`re going?" "l`m going to the John Lee Hooker concert with Donna. I told you yesterday." "You don`t tell me, you ask my permission." "You`re not going out in that dress!" "You`ll end up peddling your ass, stupid bitch." "You`re not going out at all, you didn`t mow the yard." "That piece-of-shit lawnmower is fucked!" "That`s the way you talk in front of your mother?" "You stupid bitch!" "Watch your language!" "Or l`ll kick the shit out of you like I do her!" "If your ass is in this house it`s my ass." "So move it upstairs and take a shower." "Make sure it`s a good shower." "`Cause l`m coming up after to see how clean you are." "Weren`t you a little hard on her?" "l`ll show her a little tenderness after I eat." "When I get up there, she won`t see my face for an hour." "Darling, I think you should speak nicely in front of Kevin." "Don`t think." "You`re a...idiot." "Am I the bad guy?" "Did I ever ask you to...my friends?" "And don`t tell me what to do!" "If it wasn`t for me you`d still be slinging hash and fucking your boss!" "That must be Donna." "l`ll tell her the bad news." "Don`t let your macaroni get cold, Ed." "Yes?" "Delivery for Ed Wilson." "What on earth is it?" "lt`s beef, lady." "Fifty pounds of beef." "Wait right here. I have to have a word with my husband." "Who`re you?" "Mickey." "Who`re you?" "l`m Mallory." "You ought to change your name to Beautiful." "You a big meat eater, Mallory?" "I could be." "You always dress like that, or you just waiting for me?" "Why would I dress like this for somebody I don`t know?" "Maybe something inside you told you to." "You know." "Like fate." "Do you believe in fate?" "Maybe." "You don`t look happy." "Want to go for a ride?" "Talk about it?" "You promised your doctor no more meat." "I eat what I want." "So what?" "This...food here, you pray after you eat." "I don`t want you to clog up your arteries and keel over at the table!" "Don`t cry. lt turns me off!" "I haven`t cried in 15 years and you still haven`t touched me!" "How about him?" "You were drunk and you thought you were in Mallory`s room!" "That`s why we have Kevin." "You mean Mallory`s my mom?" "l`m sending the meat back!" "I don`t care what you do to me!" "You know what l`ll do to you." "Ed, look!" "What does it say?" "`'Out with the meat man." "Back before dawn." "Love, Mallory.`'" "That stupid bitch!" "They stole your car!" "My car!" "That meat man cocksucker!" "I broke her in and he grabbed her." "l`ll fix his ass." "Call the cops!"

"Listen, Mickey my daddy, he`s gonna move us away so that you can`t never find me, and l`m scared." "He can`t keep me away from you." "He said if you ever show up he`ll kill you." "Kill me?" "When`s this supposed to happen?" "Can I help you?" "He won`t leave me alone." "He keeps touching me and I can`t take it." "I have to go." "If he finds out l`m gone, he`ll beat me." "I just wanted to tell you I love you and I miss you." "Don`t forget about me." "You won`t forget me?" "l won`t forget about you." "lt`s cool."

"You make every day feel like kindergarten." "Let`s get a whole bunch of stuff because I need a whole new wardrobe `cause l`m a new woman now." "l`m a new woman!" "She`s a new woman!" "Past is behind us now." "lt`s time to grow up." "We got the road to hell in front of us." "Mal?" "Yes?" "Will you marry me?" "Of course l`ll marry you." "l`ve been waiting for you to say that for so long." "Where will we get married?" "Right here, Mal." "This is our church." "I got the perfect thing." "Give me your hand."

"They tore up the countryside with a vengeance right out of the Bible." "Tonight I`m standing on Highway 666 running through towns like Cortez, Shiprock, Sheep Springs and ending in Gallup, New Mexico." "To some, a beautiful stretch of the American landscape but to Mickey and Mallory Knox, who are still at large it is literally a candy lane of murder and mayhem." "Patrolman Gerald Nash was the first of 1 2 peace officers that Mickey and Mallory murdered during their reign of terror." "Gerald and his partner Dale Wrigley were parked at this doughnut shop." "Alfie`s Donuts, when...." "This 1970 Dodge Challenger pulled up across the street." "Gerald, only three weeks out of the Academy and my bear claw." "Driver asked him a question." "How do you get to Farmington?" "Looked like he was giving street directions." "Head on out on 324." "Take it over to 66 and Farmington`s up 65 miles." "Quick ride." "You folks going there?"

"I love your knee." "Love your thigh." "Love your stomach." "Love your finger." "Where is it?" "Goddamn!" "I just took it off so I wouldn`t snag my hair when I washed it." "All right, baby, look." "Even if that ring pulls out every hair on your head it stays on." "If it tears out my eyeballs it never comes off." "Every great thing we do, starts with these." "Since you put it that way."

"But if we let you go, we`d be just like everybody else." "Killing you and what you represent is a statement." "l`m not sure what it`s saying but, you know, Frankenstein killed Dr. Frankenstein." "Have some dignity." "All right, l`m okay. l`ve thought this over." "Life`s cruel, no one said it`d be easy." "The day you killed, you belonged to us!" "To the public!" "To the media!" "We are married, right?" "The point is what do we do next?" "Let`s do a Salman Rushdie-type thing." "Just books, talk shows, you know." "We lay low, jump up, we bob and weave." "We do Letterman, Oprah, Donahue." "Have you any idea how huge we could be?" "Let`s make a little music, Colorado." "Wait, wait!" "Don`t you two always leave someone alive to tell the tale?" "We are." "Your camera." "Okay!" "l`ll miss him." "Let`s go." "Okay, baby." "Can we hear him?" "I can`t hear him." "I`m not getting anything." "Oh, my God!" "A bride and groom`s wedding turned into a nightmare" "My dad...." "People...." "Because they were having sex." "That`s all I thought about." "He punched me." "He slapped me." "I just want to say, you know, can we...." "Ready?"

"I tried to open a new packet," "I cut myself, and then I dropped it." "You really should have your own paramedic following you around." "I'm tired." "I was up till 3:00 a.m." "Were you hunting down some cold-blooded murderer last night, sweating him out in the box?" "No, I was talking to my mom." "Oh, everything okay?" "Yeah, fine." "I just haven't spoken to her in a few days." "They're in Dallas." "My Uncle Charlie's golden jubilee is on Sunday." "Your crazy Uncle Charlie who challenged me to a chugging contest?" "Same one." "Wait." "Your birthday's Sunday." "Your parents are gonna miss your birthday?" "It's okay." "We'll celebrate next week." "Well, what are you gonna do?" "Something with your brothers?" " I don't know." " What about Brody or Danny?" "I don't know." "Hey." "Hey." "Why didn't you tell me it was your birthday this weekend?" "What, you didn't get my announcement?" "Lunch is on me." "Where do you wanna go?" "I don't care." "I eat everything." "What ya got?" "You know our police chaplain, Father Chet Cutcliff?" "Yeah!" "Well, I don't know him know him." "I used to go to mass at St. Mary's with my best friend." "We used to love it when Father Chet gave the sermon, 'cause he always kept it really short." "So, yeah, I kind of do." "Wait, someone's filed a complaint against our chaplain?" "That store was robbed yesterday." "The owner was shot and killed." "One of the lookiloos in the crowd said she saw a kid give Father Chet a gun." "Okay, so what are we doing here?" "Oh, she's in there." "Took a minute to get her to talk to us." "Here she comes." "Christy Degruitti," "Detectives Flores and Kowalski." "Yeah, I don't have a lot of time." "I saw this kid" "How old was the kid?" "The punk-ass kid was about 10 or 11." "Anyways, I saw him reach into his jacket and hand the priest a gun." "What did the priest do?" "The priest put the gun in his jacket, and then the punk-ass kid hugs him and runs off." "Had you ever seen this punk-ass kid before?" "Rowdy kids are always running through this neighborhood." "I don't know." "There were cops here everywhere yesterday." "Why didn't you talk to one of them?" "Maybe I didn't feel like talking to the cops yesterday." "Maybe you were a little high?" "You know what?" "I know what I saw." "Thank you." "I'm sure we can clear this up pretty quickly." "Would you like some coffee?" "Don't do caffeine anymore." "Doctor says I gotta drink cranberry juice instead." "Got any of that?" "Sorry." "No cranberry juice." "Have a seat, Father." "Well, without vodka, what good is it anyway?" "You sound like my Uncle Charlie." "He's a Jesuit." " Here in Chicago?" " Dallas." "Ah." "I love the Jesuits." "Yesterday around 2:00 p.m., you were at a crime scene in Pullman." "That's correct." "Did a young boy give you a gun?" "I figured that's why I.A. was busting me." "I unloaded it, so it's safe." "He told me it wasn't used in the robbery, and I believed him." "It's the only reason I took it from him." "Why did he give it to you?" "He didn't want it in his house." " Is he in danger?" " Not anymore." "We need his name." "Well, I can't give you his name." "Why not?" "He gave you the gun at a crime scene, not in a confessional." "He gave me the gun 'cause he trusted me, and I took it 'cause I trusted him." "How about trusting us?" "A minor child gave you a loaded gun." "We need to talk to him." "We know it was one of these three boys." "They were all interviewed at the crime scene." "Max, Henry, Jacob." "Pick one." "I can't do that." "You know we can hold you for impeding an investigation." "You do what you gotta do." "What we're gonna do is bring in Max, Henry, and Jacob, disrupt their lives, and interrogate them until one of them cracks." "Is that what you want?" "The boy did the right thing." "You should leave it at that." "How about we leave it up to ballistics?" "Okay, why do I have three messages from you?" "Because you never call me back." "Never calls me back either." "I see you both every day." "Why do you need to call me?" "Hey!" "Hey!" "It's raining Kowalskis!" "What up, guys?" "It's Abby's birthday!" "Oh, I was hoping that's what this was!" "Go on." "We just wanted to do something special for her this year, you know, make up for all the grief we've been giving her about I.A." "We're thinking a surprise party." "And we're thinking maybe you could help us?" "Sure." "What do you need?" "Well, we need you to plan it." " The whole thing?" " Mm-hmm." "Her birthday is Sunday." "We're thinking Friday night, you know, and she shows up after work, and surprise!" "But your parents are out of town." "Yeah, well, they could come in for the party and then just fly back to Dallas on Saturday." "Okay..." "Uh, well, what's the theme?" "Do you want a band, a sit-down dinner, a buffet, appetizers, open bar, a magician, dancing?" " Yeah, a magician." " Definitely a band." "Well, how much do you wanna spend?" "600 bucks." "Okay." "I can work with that." "Uh, get me a guest list for tomorrow." "Are we gonna invite Danny or Brody?" " Danny." " Brody." " Danny." " Brody." "Okay, wait, can't we invite 'em both?" "No." "And the question is, who would Abby want to invite?" "Jacob, yesterday when you were outside the Quickie Mart, did you talk to a priest?" "Go ahead." "Tell 'em what you saw." "No, ma'am." "Just a cop." "Guys." "Excuse us." "You found the kid?" "All of them said they didn't talk to Father Chet, so one of them is lying." "Why not bring in the lookiloo?" "We did." "She picked out Henry and Jacob both." "Ballistics report." " It's not a match." " Correct." "The gun Father Chet gave you, it wasn't used in the robbery/homicide." "But it belonged to a cop-- John Addison." "He reported it stolen four months ago." " His duty weapon?" " Yes." "He's a patrol cop." "He didn't show up for work today." "Mr. Addison?" "Are you okay?" "Are you sure?" "Mm-h." "We'll take it from here." "Thanks." "Seriously?" "31 flights of stairs?" "I'm not getting in an elevator." "What are you gonna do if we have to go someplace up 50, 80?" "I'm not getting in an elevator." "Hello?" "John Addison?" "John Addison?" "Chicago police!" "Does something seem off to you?" "Okay, definitely looks like a suicide." "He left a will, bank statements, funeral instructions, and two notes, one addressed to his mother and one to Father Chet." "Did you tell his mother?" "The coroner is notifying Mrs. Brown and her husband." "How long have you known John?" "Since he was a kid." "His family used to belong to St. Mary's." "John was an altar boy." " When was this?" " Early '90s." "Twenty years ago." "John's note." "Well, I'm sure you read it." "Let's read it again." ""I'm tired." ""It's been 20 years." ""I just wanna stop the war inside me," ""and I know it's never going to get any better." ""I know I'm going to hurt him." ""You know it too." ""And I can't do that." "I'm not crazy." "I just want peace."" "Who was John going to hurt?" "I'm not gonna talk to you about John's problems." "Problems that started 20 years ago when he was an altar boy?" "That time there was a confessional involved and a sacrament as well." "Was it the boy that gave you the gun?" " Was John gonna hurt him?" " No." "They didn't even know each other." "But they both knew you." "A boy you won't identify gave you a gun." "That gun was stolen from a cop who killed himself and left you a note." "It's a big coincidence." "Been thinking the same thing myself." "We don't believe in coincidence." "Neither do I." "I wonder what God's up to." "Let's find out." "I gotta talk to you about your sister." "Deal was we're partners again but you don't talk about Abby." " It's her birthday." " You're talking about Abby." " What should I get her?" " I don't know." " Perfume?" " She likes perfume." "What else?" "Get her something with the Bears on it." "She'll love it." "She's got everything ever been made with the Bears on it." "I wanna rent a boat, drink champagne on the river, get fireworks." "Dude!" "You guys having a party?" "You are!" "You're having a party, and I'm not invited." "We don't know what we're doing." "I gave the gun to Father Chet because I didn't want it." " How did you get the gun?" " I found it." "Where?" "In an alley." "You're lying." "He's lying." "Where'd you find the gun?" "Tell the truth." "I found it in Herschel's room." "My oldest son, his brother." "I knew Herschel wasn't supposed to have it, and when I saw Father Chet yesterday," "I ran home, got it, and gave it to him." "How do you know Father Chet?" "I serve mass with him." "I'm gonna need to talk to Herschel." "He's at work." "Write down where he works." "Do you like being an altar boy?" "I hate it." "Richie." "Hey!" "You got a second?" "Hey!" "Danny, uh, what's up?" "Ran into Steve yesterday." "He said it was Abby's birthday." "Yeah." "What do you think about Coco Pazzo?" "Wow, fancy." "Trying to impress." "You know what?" "Take her to Mia Francesca on Clark." "It's her favorite place." " Yeah?" " Yep." "All right." "I'll make reservations for Friday." "Oh, you know what?" "She might be busy Friday night." "Is it some kind of family thing?" "Yeah, she-- uh..." "You believe the weather we've been having lately?" "Remember what it was like this time last year?" "My partner Brody." "Brody, uh, Danny Mitchell." "Hey." "Hey, thanks for the, uh, birthday advice." "Let me know about Friday." "I gotta make reservations." "Nice to meet you, Brody." "Is he talking about Abby's birthday?" "Herschel is 21." "He did 14 months for burglary when he was 18." "Get a warrant." "See what else he has in his room." "Four arrests for bar fights got him court-ordered group therapy for the past year." "According to his mom, it's turned his life around." "Sounds like an angry kid." "Do you believe mom?" "Yeah." "I told her we'd wait until tomorrow to bring in Herschel so he wouldn't lose his job." "His mom's not gonna let him go anywhere." "If you're right, he stole the duty weapon of a police officer." "He belongs in jail." "The police report for John Addison's home burglary." "If we're right, he also stole John's T.V. and computer." "You stay with the stolen gun." "Kowalski can work the suicide." "Friends and co-workers all say John was a great guy, engaged to be married." "Nothing pointed to suicide." "He seemed happy." "He has some secrets, then." "We can talk in here." "Would you like some coffee?" "Uh, no, thank you." " Cream or sugar?" " Uh, cre." "Do you know how my son killed himself?" "Yes." "When the coroner was here earlier," "I didn't wanna know." "Do you know?" "Yes." "What did he do?" "He shot himself." "John shot himself." "I know." "The coroner told me." "This is my husband Franklin, Dr. Kowalski." "Honey, I--I think you need to lie down." "I don't wanna lie down." "I am so sorry for your loss." "Can you tell me about your son?" "He was perfect." "Can I read the note John left for you?" ""Mom, I love you." ""I know this is gonna hurt you." ""I'm sorry." ""I wish I could tell you everything," ""but it's better this way." "Tell Franklin I said good-bye."" "Do you know why John was suffering?" "John killed himself because your police chaplain molested him when he was 10 years old." "Let me get you some coffee." "How do you know John was being molested?" "Because he was a happy, normal child until he became an altar boy, and then he turned into a moody, unhappy boy that I didn't even know anymore." "Did you talk to him about Father Chet?" "Not back then." "No, I" "I didn't suspect back then." "I thought it was adolescence." "Are you gonna arrest Father Chet for sexual abuse?" "We need evidence for that." "The body of my son isn't enough evidence?" "I'm sorry." "Under Illinois criminal law, you have nine years from when the abuse starts to press charges." "It's too late." "Not for a civil suit." "We still need evidence." "That priest became the Police Chaplain because he knew John was an officer." "So he'd have an excuse to run into him." "Father Chet has been chaplain for seven years." "John joined the police force five years ago, so I" "I saw them together just a few months ago." "They were arguing." "John said it was about football." "It wasn't about football." "It was personal." "Intimate." "You don't believe me." "Maybe the press will." "She has no proof." "This is just about her grieving and needing to blame someone." "I wanna make sure it's not us." "We vetted Father Chet before he became our chaplain, didn't we?" "Yes, we vetted him." "His background check is clean." "Everybody loves him." "Nothing but love." "Who did we check with?" "The archdiocese?" "I'm just saying." "I called my friend." "She said Father Chet was a great priest." "She never heard anything about him molesting anybody." "See what else was going on in John's life-- any secrets, money problems, an affair?" "We're checking his financials." "He left everything to his fiancee and her kid." "Betsy Harris." "She's a paramedic." "I'm gonna go talk to her." "I'm gonna talk to Herschel." "So go talk to 'em." "Oh, hey!" "Brody!" " Hey." " Hi." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "Uh, sure." "What's your favorite restaurant?" " What?" " Just tell me." "Uh, I don't know-- Mia Francesca?" "Can I take you to Mia Francesca on Friday night for your birthday?" "I would love that." "Okay." "Four months ago, you broke into a cop's house." "You stole his gun, computer, and T.V." "Who says?" "We found this computer in your room, plus your fingerprints, which we found all over the house." "That's because I'm there all the time." "Why would you be over at a cop's house?" "Ask him." "John and I are friends." "What kind of friends?" "He's kind of like an older brother." "Herschel, John killed himself." "How did you know John?" "We go to this..." "Group therapy thing." "What group therapy?" "Sexual abuse survivors." "Well, that's your court-ordered therapy, but why does John go?" "He says it helps him." "Was John sexually abused?" "Yes!" "When did John kill himself?" "Two days ago." "How?" "Did he blow his head off?" "He blew his head off." "Why would you steal from a friend?" "I don't know!" "Because I'm an asshole." "John was nothing but good to me." "He talked to me." "He listened to me." "He understood..." "'Cause it happened to him." "Who sexually abused John?" "I don't know." "We never talked about it." "Who abused you?" "Was it Father Chet?" "What?" "No." "How long were you and John engaged?" "Almost a year." "How old's your son?" "Eight." "His father died in Afghanistan." "We'd only been married a year." "Jason was only six weeks old, so he never met him." "Did he and John get along?" "Yeah." "They had fun together." "When was the last time you talked to John?" "The day he killed himself." "We met for breakfast, and then he went to work and ate his gun." "I'm so mad at him for doing this to Jason." "And then he writes a note to his mom and some priest, but not me?" "We were getting married in a month." "And now you're telling me that he was sexually abused and he was in therapy?" "I don't understand." "Oh, I don't under-- don't understand." "And he pulled back lately." "I thought it was the wedding." "If he was getting cold feet, he didn't need to do this." "Oh, my God." " Danny Mitchell." " Yeah?" "Oh, hey." "Brody, right?" "Yeah." "Abby Kowalski." "What about her?" "What's your deal with her?" "It's none of your business." "Richie said you two are friends." "It's not what I'd say, but okay." " What would you say?" " Well, I already said I it." "It's none of your business." "You know what I'd say?" "I'd say that friends don't need birthday advice." "How do you know Abby?" "We're not friends." "I'm taking Abby out for her birthday." "So am I." "Yeah, well, we'll see." "Yup, we'll see." "Guest list is at 39, 40 if we invite Brody or Danny, but we're not going there yet." "I need two of you to help me Friday afternoon." "We're gonna buy everything-- wine, beer, lots of appetizers." "And we can't afford a band, so I'm just gonna bring my iPod." " What about dinner?" " Can't afford dinner." "Unless I chip in, which I would love to do, but I understand if this is just a brother thing." "No, it's not just a brother thing." "Great." "I'll cover dinner." "Thank you." "Brody or Danny?" "Okay, wait, wait." "Why don't-- why don't we do Team Brody versus Team Danny?" "Whoever wins gets to invite their guy." "Whoever wins what?" "What would Abby's ultimate gift be?" "Anything Chicago Bears." "Something with Brian Urlacher." " An autograph?" " Meet him." "Date with him." "Wait, I got it." "Whoever gets Brian Urlacher to wish Abby a Happy Birthday first." " How about that?" " That's pretty good." " You like that?" " That's good!" "Bring it in." "There it is." "Game on." "Only John and God know the reason he killed himself." "And you." "Well, I sit in for God." "And since God's not gonna tell anybody what John said, neither am I." "It's pretty simple." "What's that like?" "Hearing a person's worst sin?" "Well, you know." "You hear confessions." "I get confessions, but I don't offer forgiveness." "Unless I think it's gonna make the scumball talk." "And in this case, am I the scumball you're trying to get to talk?" "No." "In this case, you are the priest whose name I'm trying to clear." "I'm not worried about my name." "So who molested him?" "I can't talk about John's problems." "Did you know John was in group therapy with Herschel?" "What?" "A sexual abuse survivors' group." "You didn't know." "Well, I knew John was in therapy." "So, wait, Herschel and John knew each other?" "That's how Herschel got the gun." "The kid's messed up." "John was just trying to help." "Herschel repays him by stealing his gun." "It's crazy how all this is connected." "If you think God is crazy..." "How is your relationship with your creator these days?" "It's fine..." "I think." " Needs some work?" " No." "Well, maybe." "I go to mass, uh, Easter, Christmas..." "Your Jesuit Uncle know all that?" "I hope not." "He's celebrating 50 years in the priesthood." "Oh." "How long have you been a priest?" "I only got 40 years." "And on that..." "Here's to 40 more and 50 more for Uncle Charlie." " Whoo!" " Oh, my." "You had drinks with Father Chet, the pedophile priest?" "I don't think he's a pedophile." "The paper says you're gonna fire him anyway." "Chaplain is a volunteer position." "The press doesn't know what it's talking about as usual." "Oh, it's work." "Kowalski." "What?" "When?" "Okay." "Someone killed Father Chet." "Father Chet was shot last night in the parking lot of his church rectory approximately 10:00 p.m." "Homicide's handling the case." " Any witnesses?" " No." "Any idea who the killer is?" "No leads yet." "They haven't found the murder weapon." "It says he was shot point-blank in the chest." "Okay." "So to get that close means he must've known the killer." "It's possible." "What do you mean, it's possible?" "It's obvious." "And I'm sure homicide would consider all the evidence." "So it's all on homicide now?" "What about our case?" "As I was about to say, as I.A., we still have the accusation against Father Chet to clear." "I had a drink with Father Chet." "My gut tells me he's not a pedophile now or ever." "You can't know that for sure, Abby." "Just because he's a priest, it doesn't make him a pedophile." "No, that's not what I'm saying." "But that's what everybody else is saying." "What we need to prove is whether or not" "Father Chet's alleged sexual abuse of John Addison contributed to his homicide." "Well, I wanna know if John's suicide contributed to Father Chet's murder." "Where do you think we should start?" "Well, Betsy and Emily certainly had reason enough to go after Father Chet because of John." "Pass it on to homicide." "Check their whereabouts last night." " You sure about this?" " Yeah." "You get like eight pounds of ribs." "That's him." "That's Urlacher's Agent." "Excuse me, Mr. Weitz!" "How you doing?" "Can I have a moment of your time, please?" "Listen, I'm sure you get a dozen requests, but this is actually really important." "Not now, man." "I mean, it's more than just important." "It's more like life and death." "It's exactly like life and death." "My sister is Brian Urlacher's number-one fan." "Yeah, Abby--Abby never misses a Bears game." "She refuses to even TiVo." "Everything has to be in real time." "Yeah, so we thought it'd be great to surprise her if, you know, Brian Urlacher could, you know, personally wish her a Happy Birthday." "It would mean so much." "Call my assistant." "What are you doing, man?" "This is our best shot." "Like Urlacher's ever gonna agree to this." "I don't know what we were thinking." "What if Donnie gets to Urlacher, huh?" "No way I can take Donnie having bragging rights for a year." "You?" "Come on." "All right." "Sir, we're police officers." "What kind of commercial is he shooting?" "All I know is Brian Urlacher is inside shooting a commercial." "They started at 6:00 a.m. what, uh-- they should be breaking for lunch soon." "Well, I hate waiting." "Sorry." "My, uh, ex kept me waiting all the time." "How are you doing with that?" "The divorce?" "Uh, better than I was." "I think I'm just about ready to get back out in the world." "It's a fun place." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "Lots of fun." "Between the listening, the mentoring, and the Kumbaya sing-alongs, according to 20 altar boys, there's no way Father Chet could've been John's molester." "The phones have been ringing off the hook all day with people demanding we stop sullying" "Father Chet's good name." "Homicide get back to you on Betsy and Emily?" "Both alibis check out." "Ballistics came back." "Bullet was a 40-caliber." "I still think John's suicide and Father Chet's murder are not a coincidence." "So who in John's life would blame Father Chet enough to kill him?" "I've been going through his records, commendations, financials, looking for any link between John and Father Chet." "Three days before his suicide," "John gave a large sum of money to the sexual abuse survivor group he goes to." "So John had a lot of money." "John's mother and stepfather had a lot of money." "John didn't." "I don't see any deposits from them." "Exactly." "But $10,000 was deposited into John's account every month." "What's "Lakefront Incorporated"?" "I'm still digging, but three months ago" "$200,000 was deposited to John's account." "Two days later, the majority of that was spent at Ethan Lord's jewelers." "Most likely on Betsy's engagement ring." "It sounds like a payoff." "So the question is, who keeps putting money into John's account?" "John left us the condo, but after what happened" "You can move in with us." "No, Emily, we have the apartment." "We're fine." "The offer stands." "Franklin and I have both told you that." "You and Franklin are very generous." "When it comes to this family, yes." "Is that why Franklin deposited large sums of money into John's account?" "How much are you talking about?" "Just over $1 million in ten years." "It's not some kind of trust fund?" "No, not that I'm aware of." "Just after your son turned 20," "Franklin started depositing $10,000 a month into John's account under a dummy company name." "We think it was hush money." " What?" " That's impossible." "What are you saying?" "You never considered the possibility that Franklin could have molested John?" "No!" "It was Father Chet." "He raped my son." "He pushed my son to kill himself." "Betsy, where's Jason?" "Oh, my God, what are you insinuating?" "I think it's time for you to leave." "We need to ask your son some questions." "Where is he?" "He's at the house with Franklin." "Mom!" "Franklin and I got into a wicked water fight!" "And I was definitely on the losing end of that one, huh, bud?" "Take your son to the other room." "Let's go get you dry and dressed, hon." "Em, are you okay?" "She's trying to figure out how to ask you" " Please, not here." " Well, ask me what?" "How long had you been sexually abusing your stepson John?" "What is this?" "Em..." "Did it happen immediately, or did it take a while to gain his trust?" " Stop it." "Stop this." "I want you two out of this house." "You're upsetting my wife." "Not before we get to the truth." "Why were you giving John money every month, Franklin?" "And how could I know nothing about it?" "I gave John the money to invest." " Or to keep him quiet." " No." "That's why you killed Father Chet, isn't it?" " No." " So no one would ever find out that you were sexually abusing John." "I have an alibi for the night Father Chet was shot." "What are you saying, Franklin?" "Hook him up." "Franklin Brown, you have the right to remain silent." "Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law." "You have the right to an attorney." "If you cannot afford one, one will be appointed for you." "Why am I here?" "Where is Franklin?" "I need to talk to him." "Emily, our sex crimes unit spoke to Jason." "He admitted that Franklin had touched him inappropriately, watched him get dressed, that he had" "Is it not enough that my son is dead?" "Now you're trying to destroy my entire family." "Jason is a child." "You confused him." "He doesn't know what he's saying." "Franklin also finally admitted to the abuse." "I don't believe you." "What did you do to him?" "What did you say?" "Why is this happening?" "You know why, Emily, because it's happened before." "Shut your mouth!" "You don't know what you're talking about." "You've admitted yourself that John was a different kid when he turned ten." "Because of Father Chet!" "John loved being an altar boy at first, but then slowly his personality changed." "He became more and more withdrawn." " When did you first notice?" " Around his 10th birthday." "I remember, because a lot was happening." "I--I was getting married." "Franklin and I were just moving in..." "Go on." "It's also the same time you think the abuse began, right?" "No..." "It was Father Chet." "It couldn't have been" "Emily, I understand." "John was your only son." "Someone had to pay for what was done to him." "We confirmed Franklin's alibi." "He couldn't have killed Father Chet." "We also rechecked your alibi and discovered you were 30 minutes late for your dinner date, giving you plenty of time to shoot Father Chet in Pullman and make your way back to downtown Chicago." "That's insane." "Not as insane as when we find the 40-caliber semi-automatic John gave you." "Just in case." "You couldn't protect John back then, but now you decided to take justice into your own hands." "It was only right and fair." "I knew something wasn't right with John, but I just couldn't put my finger on it." "But after John's suicide and then-- and then Father Chet, it all made sense." "Well, unfortunately, you killed the wrong man." "Thank you." " Here you go." " Thanks." "Ballistics matched Emily's gun." "How did you know she had a 40-caliber semi?" "I didn't." "I guessed." "It doesn't seem right Father Chet died for nothing." "In a way, his death allowed a decade-old secret to be revealed." "Too bad it didn't come out in time to prevent John from taking his own life." "I don't think that's what John was struggling with." "In his note he said," ""I just want this war inside of me to stop." "I don't ever wanna hurt him."" "You think the "him" he was referring to is Jason?" "Betsy said in the last few weeks he'd started to withdraw from her and Jason." "I think he was struggling, and I think he was scared he was gonna repeat what was done to him." "It makes sense." "I guess we'll never know, huh?" "Surprise!" "Guys!" "What is this?" "It's a surprise party!" "Happy Birthday!" "I wasn't expecting any of this." "That's the great thing about surprise parties-- you don't see it coming." " Thank you!" " Oh, beer?" " Oh, sure!" "Hey, uh, Happy Birthday." "Oh, wait!" "Sorry!" "Our present first." "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "Oh, shouldn't we wait for mom and dad?" "No." "Trust me, you're gonna wanna see this again and again." "Thank you." "Sit down." "Oh, okay." "So all the Kowalskis got together, including Mackie, and put this together for you." "It's our way of saying sorry for busting your chops these last few months." "All right, here we go." "This is Brian Urlacher's yard." "No way!" "No way!" "This is Brian Urlacher's door." "Hi." "Oh, my God, that's Brian Urlacher!" "Richie, Steve." "Yes, no?" "Oh, I'm so-- I'm so sorry, dude." "This is crazy!" "Oh, my gosh." "You are really Brian Urlacher!" "Yes." "Abby, it's really Brian Urlacher, 2005 defensive player of the year, seven-time pro bowler, the best linebacker the Chicago Bears have ever had!" "Well, that's nice of you to say, but I think my man Briggs and a couple guys, Singletary and Butkus, may have a little issue with that." "Oh, yeah." "No, no." "Those guys are great." "You're great." "The Chicago Bears are great." "This is the best day of my entire life!" "Oh!" "Gonna have to hear about this for months!" "I still cannot believe you pulled this off!" " Neither can I!" " No, no, no, no." "Wait, there's more." "Oh." "What?" "Whenever you're ready, Mr. Urlacher." "You can call me Brian, please." "Hey, Abby, did you just hear that?" "Brian Urlacher said I could call him Brian." "Whenever you're ready, Brian." "All right." "Hi, Abby." "Brian Urlacher here." "I just wanna thank you for your support and being my number-one fan." "Um, please keep cheering in real time." "We appreciate that, and we feel your support, so please keep doing that." "I know you're having a hard time right now, but you're gonna get through it." "We're behind you." "Just keep doing what you're doing." "Thank you." "I wanna wish you a Happy Birthday, and my next sack, if I get one, is gonna be for you, Abby." "Thanks." "What did you two say to him?" "Well, we may have let it slip that you're 12 and physically challenged." "I mean, like, you are." "You're physically challenged." "And Brian just filled in the blanks." "I can't believe you two lied to Brian Urlacher." "But you guys all heard that, right?" "He hears me cheering in real time." " Right?" " Is that not" "I can't believe Brian Urlacher wished me a Happy Birthday!" "I can't believe you knew about this!" "Where's Carlos?" "Home with the boys." "Babysitter was sick." "Ooh, cupcakes." "Tough act to follow after the Urlacher video, so I'm thinking about taking the gift back." "Danny, you didn't have to do this." "Yes, I did." "Oh, my God." "Bears tickets?" "Yeah, I was hoping you'd take me." "Oh, shit." "Well, you don't have to." "No, no, no, it's fine." "Uh, I'm gonna get a drink." "Do you want a drink?" "I'll get you a drink." " You invited him?" " No." "It was Donnie, wasn't it?" "You couldn't take losing." " No, I invited him." " What?" "How was I supposed to know you were throwing me a surprise party?" "Oh, God." "I'm sorry." "It was a surprise." "No, no harm done." "Why don't you get yourself a drink?" "I'm gonna get some ice." " Cool." " Okay." "Hey, Mom." "You guys still at the airport?" "Wow, a two-hour delay on the tarmac." "I bet dad was happy about that." "No, it's going great." "Uh, Brian Urlacher wishing me Happy Birthday was an amazing surprise." "No, Mom, I'm not." "I'm fine." "I'm happy." "It's just..." "I had a hard case this week." "Yeah, absolutely." "When you get back, we'll have our own little party." "I'll get Chinese, and we'll rent Sabrina."

"Well, are you a madam?" " Little bitch." "Bitch." " As of now, you are a sir." "So are the rest of you." ""Sir" is a term of respect." "And you will have my respect until you abuse it." "Mr. Lyle, how many games did you guys win last season?" "Like four wins, 22 losses." " Sir." " Sir." "I'm going to give you contracts." "If you sign and honor your side of them, we are going to be successful." "Damn, do I get a signing bonus for signing this contract?" "Yes, sir." "You get to become a winner." "Because if there's one thing I know, it is this:" "The losing stops now." "Starting today, you will play like winners, act like winners, and most importantly, you will be winners." "If you listen and learn, you'll win basketball games." "And, gentlemen, winning in here is the key to winning out there." "This contract states that you will maintain a 2.3 grade point average." "You will attend all your classes and you will sit in the front row of those classes." " Yo, this a country-ass nigga, dog." " Excuse me." " Did you say something, sir?" " Worm was wondering, are you some country church nigga, with your tie on and all that?" " Right." " That's what you wanna say, right?" "And what is your name, sir?" "I'm Timo Cruz, sir." "Well, Mr. Cruz and Mr. Worm, what you should both know is we treat ourselves with respect." "We don't use the word "nigga."" "Are you some preacher man or some shit?" "Because God ain't gonna do you no good in this neighborhood." " l live in this neighborhood, sir." " Sir." "Can you believe this uppity Negro, sir?" "Okay, Mr. Cruz..." " ..." "leave the gym right now." " For what?" "I'll ask you one last time to leave the gym" " before I help you leave." " Before you what?" "Do you even know who I am?" "From what I can see, a very confused and scared young man." "Scared of who?" "Scared of you?" "I'm supposed to be scared of you?" "Nigga, I ain't scared of nobody." "I will lay your ass out." "I don't think so." "All right." "What you doing?" "Get off me!" "Teachers ain't supposed to touch students." "I'm not a teacher." "I'm your new basketball coach." "This ain't over!" "is there anybody else who's not feeling this contract?" "Come on, man, where you going?" "I don't do high school contracts." "Tell us when you need the real ballers." "I will do that, sir." "There goes our two leading scorers from last season, man." "There goes our two leading scorers from last season, man." "Then I guess we'll have new leading scorers this season, huh?" "Now, I cannot teach you the game of basketball until your conditioning is at a level that allows me to do so." "Gentlemen, report to the baseline." "To the baseline!" "I presume you all know what suicides are." "So... I saw the St. Francis game the other night." "None of you have a problem shooting the ball." "You all had a problem getting up and down the court." "If you are late, you will run." "If you give me attitude, you will do push-ups." "So you can push-up or shut up." "That's up to you." " Yo, how many we gonna do?" " Sir." "Yo, sir, how many we gonna do?" "Let's see how many you can do in one hour and seven minutes." "Fellas, don't make me commit homicide." "I said, suicides!" "Put your hand on the line!" "Put your hand on the line!" "Damn, I can't keep this shit up, man." "I can barely walk." " l know, my legs is hella sore, son." " Need some Gatorade or something." " There go your girl right there, son." " Yeah." "Hey, what's with you and her homeys?" "You gonna try to holler at them?" "Man, I'm hollering at both of the friends." " Both of them?" " Yeah, because I need that." "You know, I need variety in my life." "I can't just have one girl." "You know what I'm saying?" "I need both." "Hey." " What's up, baby?" " How you doing?" "Ladies, ladies, ladies." "Y'all heard about that two-for-one special, right?" "Two of you, one of me." "Now, that's special." " Please." "Whatever, Worm." " Yeah, special ed." " Get your arm off me." " l like this fox." "You working that chinchilla." "But, look, baby, me and you..." "You need to tell him to stop playing it so close." "She don't even like him." " Why not?" "Worm's the man." " Worm is Worm." "Anyway, I got something for the baby today." "We don't even know if it's a baby yet." "I mean, it's kind of early." "You ain't even been to the doctor yet." "Hello?" "I passed the pregnancy test, Kenyon." "Three times." " These are kind of cute, though." " l know, I got good taste, right?" "Yeah, all right." "Precious little shoes." "Well, I got a little somethin'-somethin' for you too." "Thank you." "This definitely is a little something." " Where'd you get this?" " Don't sleep on the 99 Cent Store." "Kenyon!" " What?" "What's up?" " What are you doing?" "Give me!" " Are you crazy?" " Are you crazy?" "You got that for 99 cents?" "I've been there." "You can get three brooms and a bucket for 99 cents, with some toilet paper." "That's like thread." "That's not even half a shoelace." "Well, would you like to see me in this shoelace?" "Quick feet!" "Let me see quick feet!" "Touch the floor!" "Stay big!" "Stay big!" "Three push-ups and move." "One!" "Two!" "Three!" "Let's go." "Explode!" "Let me hear you." "Let me hear you!" "Let me hear it." "Explode!" "Worm, explode!" "Touch the floor!" "Touch the floor!" "Give me five!" "Just give me five!" "Push!" "Push!" "Go!" "Go!" "Let me hear you!" "Come on, close out!" "Explode!" "Let's go!" "Sir, you're 20 minutes late." "That's ten suicides for the whole team, 250 push-ups for you." "This ain't the track team, man." "Nor is it the debate team, Mr. Lyle." "But you're right." "And because you're right, that's 20 suicides for the entire team and you get the privilege of joining Mr. Battle" " with 250 push-ups of your own." " What, are you serious?" " Yeah." " This is bullshit!" "Good answer, Mr. Battle." "Johnny, tell him what he's won." "Because you gave such a good answer and you gave the coach attitude, you win the bonus prize of 500 push-ups!" "And would you like to go for the grand prize of a thousand?" "No, sir." "To the baseline!" "On my whistle!" "Let's go!" "J.B., come on, baby." "I can't even move, son." "Like, every muscle on my body hurts." " You can't say nothing to him." " Why can't I say nothing to him?" "I'm a white boy?" "Man, what the--?" "Right here." "Right here." "Get this dude right here." "Get this dude." "Where you going, homey?" "Where you going, huh?" " l ain't got shit." " What?" "Please don't shoot me, man." "Go on, take my bag, dog!" "Run your shit, homey!" "That's some bullshit, Cruz!" "Yo, I'm gonna visit you in County, dog." "I'm just playing, B. Look at you!" "Damn!" "I seen y'all walking from up the block like somebody put a pipe in your asses." "You all right, dog?" "Look, y'all wasn't winning with me, but y'all damn sure look sad without me." "But you know what?" "I'm gonna watch y'all play." "See y'all get your asses kicked." "Yo!" "I'd love to shoot the shit with you bitches all night, but I gotta go." " All right." " Yo, who that, man?" "That's my cousin, Renny." "I'm gonna check y'all." "Come on, let's go." "Yo, Worm, you need a ride?" " No, I'm straight, man." " You sure?" " Yeah, I'm good." " All right, my nigga." " One love." " All right, Lyle!" "Don't let nobody else put a pipe up your ass, or you might like it!" "Hey, you was scared, huh?" "I wasn't scared." "The state only requires that they have a 2.0 average to play." "Now, you got in here they need a 2.3." "If you have a 2.0, you have to score at least 1 050 on the SAT to be eligible for an athletic scholarship." "If you have a 2.3, you only need 950." "Now, 2.3 is just a C-plus." "It shouldn't be that hard to maintain a C-plus." "These boys are student athletes." ""Student" comes first." "It says they gotta wear coat and ties on game days." "They don't own ties!" "You gonna supply the ties?" "There's a Goodwill and a Salvation Army store less than two blocks from here." "They got a box full of ties for 50 cents apiece." "Yo, man, what you trying to say, huh?" "Oh, we too good to shop at the Goodwill and Salvation Army, is that it?" " Yeah, I ain't that broke." " This is crazy!" "A dress code and they have to sit in the front row in class?" " This is basketball, man!" " And basketball is a privilege, ma'am." "If you want to play basketball on this team, these are the simple rules you have to follow if you want to enjoy that privilege." "Now, if you decide to follow these simple rules, I need you and the boys to sign this contract." "They can bring the contracts to practice tomorrow." "If you come to practice." "I wanna thank you all for coming out and showing your support, and I hope I have your support the rest of the season." " Good night." " Get up and leave like that?" "Look, I have a hard enough time getting my nephew to..." " How you gonna make them wear ties?" " l want the other coach back!" "It's one of your contracts, sir." "I've amended that contract." "You require your players to maintain a 2.3 grade point average." "I've committed to maintaining a 3.5." "You require ten hours of community service, and I've committed to 50." "Any unexcused absences, any other disciplinary issues at school, you can nullify this agreement and send me to any school you want." "And how many days do I have to consider this offer?" "None." "The second page is a letter you need to sign that confirms my withdrawal from St. Francis." " They know I'm leaving." " What?" " You withdrew from St. Francis?" " l called Richmond." " They expect me there in the morning." " You called Richmond?" "You should have spoken to me about this." "It was a personal choice for me." "Well, I can fix all that in the morning." "Sir, please listen." "All I wanna do is play for you." "If I'm one of the top students at Richmond, I mean one of the top in the whole school, and I have great SATs, I can go to any college in the country." "I'm asking you to trust me." "You really wanna do this, huh?" "Okay." "Part of growing up is making your own decisions and living with the consequences." "3.7." "And you will earn every minute of playing time." "Open it, please." "Morning, sir." "My name is J. Lyle They call me wild lt's all right Kenyon's mom tonight" " Say what?" " You might think I'm wrong" "But she's got these thongs" "Hey, yo, yo, yo." "It's Malcolm X from St. Francis." " Hey, yo, Malcolm!" " Whatever." " What's up, man?" " What are you doing here, son?" " l transferred to Richmond." " Oh, no, son, I think you're just lost." "Well, I am actually lost." "Can you tell me how to get to...?" "Bel Air?" "Hey, yo, Worm, tell your man Fresh Prince here" " how to get to his mansion." " Fresh bitch." "I hope seeing you in this hallway mean I get to see you on the court today." "I can't wait." "With your five browns." "Everybody up." "Today we're going to play defense." "Sorry, sir." "Gentlemen, this is a new player, Damien Carter." "He is my son, and he is late." "Sir, you owe me 20 suicides." "Sir, it's my first day of school, I had to stay" "Basketball practice starts at 3." "As of 2:55, you are late." "Get changed in the locker room." "Do your suicides on the far side of the court so as not to disturb us." "All right, gentlemen, give me two lines!" "Okay, young sirs, we're gonna take it to the next level." "Everything I knew about basketball, I learned from women." "I have a sister, her name's Diane." "She was always on my case about every little thing." "Matter of fact, she still is." ""Turn down that radio!" "You eat the last piece of cake?" "Did you drink all the Kool-Aid?"" "She was always in my face." "So when I call "Diane,"" "we're gonna play straight man-to-man pressure defense." "Worm!" "No, no, no, no, sir." "Look at your defensive posture." "Come on." "Split your man." "Back straight, butt down." "This hand guards against the passing lane, this hand protects the crossover." "All right?" "Palms up!" "Get your head in the game." "Now we have Delilah." "She was my childhood sweetheart." "Sir, was she hot?" "Oh, yes, sir." "She was steaming hot." "But she was the devil." "That girl was evil." "I remember once she tricked me into stealing brownies from Christ the King First Baptist Church bake sale." "She smiled and got her way out of it, while I damn near had to wear a pillow on my butt for a month before I could sit down." "Delilah, gentlemen." "She's our trap defense." "Take notes, freshman." "This is as close as you gonna get to playing." "Come on, come on." "Move, move!" "Delilah!" "Delilah!" "Delilah!" "Now, I know you're all concerned that we didn't work on our offense during practice." "We have all season to do that." "But what did we do in practice, Mr. Stone?" " Run." " That's right." "So, what do you think I want you to do on offense tonight?" " Run?" " Correct again." "I want you to run." "I want you to run every second that clock is ticking, all game long." "Put him back on the bench!" "Rebound!" "Rebound!" "Let's go, let's go, let's go!" "Nice pass, baby!" "Push it!" "Push it!" " Screen." " Screen, baby." "Screen." "Screen." " Worm." " Let's go, Worm." "Stay alert!" "Pick him up right there!" " Oh, yeah!" "Oh, yeah!" " What's the call, ref?" "White four, fifth." "He's out of the game." " Oh, ref, come" " That's his fifth foul, coach." " Time, sir." " Time out, white." "Bad call, ref!" "That was a jump ball, damn it!" " Time out, white." " Come on, fellas." "Come on, huddle up." "Hustle up." "Get over here." "All right." "Huddle up, huddle up." " Carter, you're in." " But, coach, he a freshman." "You wanna coach?" "All right, take a deep breath, guys." "Come on, deep breaths." " You tired?" " No, sir." "Those guys are exhausted." "That's why this guy's gonna miss that free throw." "When he does, Worm and Lyle are our first option." "Push the ball." "Go hard to the hole." "Everybody attack the boards, got that?" " Yes, sir." " All right, Richmond on three." " One, two, three!" " Richmond!" " All right, let's out, all right?" " Step it up, let's go!" "Look alive out there." "All right, guys, you're in better shape than they are." "Push it." "Box out, box out." "One shot." "Kenyon, right here." "Kenyon!" " Come on!" "Come on!" " Come on, baby!" "All right." "Kenyon!" " Worm!" " Yo, yo." "Oh, yeah!" "Yeah!" "That's what I'm talking about!" " Tight pass, baby." "Nice pass, dog." " lt was all you." "A win like that don't mean nothing, because they can't play anyway, you feel me?" "Okay, Shaq, so you dominated down low tonight." "Any thoughts?" "I dropped a 20-piece." "Kobe played his game." "We the champions till we ain't the champions no more." " Junior Battle." " Undefeated until..." "Yo, man, on the real, that was the worst game I've ever seen in my life." "I thought that shit would never end." "I was dying in the bleachers." "That's right, you were in the bleachers, weren't you?" "We were on the court handling our business." "That's right." "We 1 -0, bitch." "Yo, on the real, Hercules is weak, B, and y'all barely beat them." "Damn, Timo, why you throwing salt, man?" "We undefeated." "Show us love, son." "Yeah, that's right, we undefeated." "I'll knock all y'all off." " Yo. I'll check y'all later, all right?" " All right." "Yo." "Let's do this." " What's up?" " Here's two bundles." " All right." " Yo, be careful." "The block is hot." "Yo, I got you." " How you doing, man?" " Chilling, man." "You look good." "Got some paper for you." "Now we're talking, yeah." "How you living, Timo?" "I'm good." " You all right?" "For real?" " Yeah." " Here, take some." " l'm all right." "No, no, no, take some, please." "You did good, man." "You're doing good, bro." " Thank you." " Don't thank me, thank you." "You earned it." "Take a nickel bag, okay?" "Go get yourself something, man." " l'm gonna see you?" " Yeah, next week." "Okay, I'm gonna see you." " Keep it up." " Yeah." "Hey, Shaqua, Denise, holler at me." "Rafeca, I see you looking." "Ain't nobody thinking about you, Worm." " Oh, okay." " Gentlemen, let's review the Hercules game, shall we?" "Yo, yell out my numbers, sir." "Mr. Worm, you were five and four." "No, sir. I had 1 2 points and eight assists, sir." "No, sir, Mr. Worm." "You had five turnovers and four missed free throws." "Now, we're talking about fundamentals here." "Until we learn them, I'm adding a practice every morning at 6 a.m." " Six a.m.?" " We shot 56 percent at" "Mr. Cruz." "Are you lost, sir?" "What I gotta do to play?" "Mr. Cruz, you do not want to know the answer to that question." "Now, as I was saying, as a team, we shot 56 percent from the line." "From now on, before you leave my gym, you must pay an exit price of 50 made free throws before you can go." " What?" " That's everybody." " Come on." " That's a lot of free throws." "Okay, Mr. Cruz." "Before you can play on this team you owe me 2,500 push-ups and 1 ,000 suicides." " Damn." " Damn." "And they must be completed by Friday." " He ain't finishing that by Friday." " He ain't making that." "Today's flavor: offense." " Now we talking." " Now, I have a sister." "Her name is Linda." "Linda is smart, she's political." "Well, actually, she's radical." "Linda's got a big Afro." "Linda is our pick-and-roll offense." "Before we get into that, let's warm up." "Give me a lay-up line." " Let's go." " All right." "Let's do it." " Damn, how many sisters he got?" " Who knows." " Come on, get two more over here." " Break it out." " Let's go, guys." " Energy, guys, energy." "We got this, let's go." " l'm open." " l got him, I got him." "Right here, right here." "I'm open. I'm open." "I'm sorry." " All right." " Hey, hey, hey." " Come on." " lt's not my fault." " He was early." " Hey." "Yes, it's important to move without the ball, but you gotta be patient on the weak-side screen." "Set up your man and come off his shoulder hard." "Okay?" "Okay." "Switch it up." "We got it, come on." "Let's go." "Let's get it." " And call out them picks." " Yeah, yeah, all right." "What is your deepest fear, Mr. Cruz?" "That you're inadequate?" "Give up, Mr. Cruz." "Go home." "All right, I want seven passes before you shoot." " Seven." " All right." " l got him. I got him." " Get that ball in there." "You know your task is impossible before Friday, right?" "Move." "Work it, work it." "Run it back." "What time your mom getting home?" "She doesn't get off for another hour." "Oh, that's Myles." "What?" "Say, "Hi, Uncle Kenyon."" "Say, "Hi."" "All right, don't worry about it." "He'll go back to sleep right after his bottle." "Right, boo-boo?" "Yeah, probably in time for your mom to get home." "Or when your cousin get back from getting her hair fried and dyed, like she can afford all that shit." "It's her baby anyway." "Well, my mother had to work a double shift, but they cut her overtime." "And my cousin, don't be trying to dis her." "You said we'd be alone." "You call this alone?" "Well, that's why we need our own spot." "Did you turn this off?" " Yeah, it was boiling." " Oh, come on." "Well, turn it down, not off." "This is milk, butter and cheese." "We can't afford to waste this." "And hold him up." "Making the baby's bottle for Myles." "All right, Myles, here we go." "Gotta cool off a minute." "Ever think about what you were gonna do before you were pregnant?" "What you mean, going to junior college?" "Yeah." "I mean, yeah, I thought about it." "I could go later, I guess." "You have to get some work after you have the baby." "Me too." " So I'll work." " How you gonna go to school?" "Why you asking me all these questions?" "And you gotta put your hands under his arm." "You gotta sit him on your chest." "Hold him." " l am holding him." " You ain't doing it right." "You gotta soothe him, Kenyon." "Look... I don't know how to do this." "You'll get it." "Right?" "Look, I gotta help my mom with some stuff." " See you later, all right?" " All right." "Call me later, okay?" "Later." "All right, keep it riding on somebody." " Don't get lost in there." " Move it." "Move it." "Stay with your man." " Box out, box out!" " Position." "Guys..." "Up." "Up." "Hey, hey, hey." "You don't get to your man, stand, watch the ball." "When the ball goes up, get in good defensive position, get your body on your man and explode to the ball." "All right?" "Let's go." "Run it." "You got it." " Go on, do it." " Forward pass." "Forward pass." " Work it." " There you go." "Mrs. Fenton, the police are telling a very different story." "I wish you would." "Yes, ma'am, I'm here all week." "Mr. Carter, how are the boys?" "Oh, they're great, ma'am." "We're 1 -0." "Very good." "How may I help you?" "Well, I had my boys sign contracts requiring them to meet certain academic standards." "Yes, I believe one of the faculty members mentioned that." "Very interesting scare tactic." "Well, in order for that to be successful, I need their teachers to fill out weekly progress reports so I'll know how the boys are doing in their classrooms." " Okay." " Well, I haven't received anything from their teachers." "I don't see how this ties in to your job as the basketball coach, Mr. Carter." "Well, I took this job with the understanding I could do it my way." "And you can." "Our next faculty meeting is in two weeks." "I'll remember to bring it up." "Why, that would be great." "Thank you, ma'am." "Thank you, sir." "Bring it in, guys." "Let's go, hustle up." "Yo, bring it in, y'all." "All right, that's it for today." "We have a game tomorrow, so get some rest tonight." "And remember, ties and jackets tomorrow." "Clyde." "Mr. Cruz." "I'm impressed with what you've done." "But you came up short." "You owe me 80 suicides and 500 push-ups." "Please leave my gym." "Thanks, Clyde." "Gentlemen, see you tomorrow." "I'll do push-ups for him." "You said we're a team." "One person struggles, we all struggle." "One player triumphs, we all triumph, right?" "I'll do some." "I'll run suicides too." "I'll do some too." "Clyde, keep count." "Call me when they're done." "Defense!" "Defense!" "Push it." "Push it." "Move, move!" "Let's go." "Ball, ball, ball." "Ball, ball, ball." " Yeah!" " Go." "Move your feet, move your feet." "Go, defense." "Go." "Good job." "Good job." " Worm." " White ball." "Palms up, move your feet, right?" "Come out." "Come out." "Come out." " Mr. Cruz!" " Good game, boy." "Hey, hey." "What is your deepest fear, young man?" "Go on." "Why he keep saying that, "What's your deepest fear?" What that mean?" "Come on, let's go." "Let's go." "Let's go." "Move." "Move." "Move." "No, one more pass." "Hands up." "Three points, Cruz!" "What the hell are you doing, Cruz?" "You allergic to lay-ups?" "You do that again and you're going to be glued to the bench." " Swing it." " Right here." "Come on, last kick." "Kick it in." "Kick it in." "Let's go." "You can't guard me, can you?" "What you gonna do?" " Can't do nothing about it, can you?" " Delilah." "Delilah." "Come on, come on, come on." " Shot." " Yeah, Jason." "Kenyon, pose for me." " Smile." " Kenyon!" "Maddux!" "Get back!" "Just play the damn game." "Linda, Linda, Linda!" "There he is." "Yeah." "That's me, baby." "That's me. I did that." "I drew that up." "Yeah." "Run it again." "All right, 1 -4, 1 -4." "Linda, Linda, Linda!" "All day, baby." "All day!" "Can't stop that." "Can't stop that!" " Hey, coach, your shoe's untied, sir." " Thank you, Mr. Worm." "Look at that bow." "Look at that." "I tied that. I tied that shit." "Can I get something on the bow?" "Let me get some." "Are you crazy?" "What is wrong with you?" "What's wrong with all of you?" "Since when is winning not enough?" "Playing hard not enough?" "No, you have to humiliate your opponent." "Taunt him after every score." "You won four games last season." "Four." "What gives you the right to taint the game that I love with trash talk and taunting?" "What gives you the right to wear Richmond on your chests and act like punks?" " Coach, they were jawing too." " So?" "You can't show some class?" "Act like a champion?" "You owe me 500 push-ups apiece." "On the line." "Now." " Damn." " Oh, man, come on." "Listen, shorty, I'm just gonna be real with you, okay?" "You're my girl." "I get out on that court and everything is just getting crazy, all I gotta do is just think about you." "Mr. Lyle." "Why aren't you in..." " ...geometry?" " l'm going there right now, sir." " Sir, this is Betty." " Bella." "Bella." "Bella." "This is Bella, sir." "Go to class." "Don't forget that these projects are due at the end of this week." " So if any of you need extra time" " Excuse me, sir." "Are you Mr. Gesek?" " Yes." " l don't see Junior Battle in this class." "Junior Battle is like a solar eclipse." "We rarely see him, but when we do, it's always special." "Thank you." ""Surprise arrival to the poll is Richmond High at 1 9th."" " Top 20, baby." " We're 1 9th, dog." ""The Oilers have posted a perfect 9-0 mark, winning on the road against perennial powerhouses" "Xavier and Baxter Union."" "Junior, you should read the rest of this." "They blowing you up in this paper." " Come on, man, read it." " Man, you know he can't read." " Man, shut up." " Shut up, Maddux." ""Richmond center has been big as the Oilers are 'boyed."'" "Buoyed." "The word is "buoyed."" ""Buoyed by Junior Battle's 1 9.8-rebound-a-night numbers."" "See, that's my big nigga right there, son." "Hey." "If you was any bigger, you'd be my bigger nigga." "Sit down." "Sit down!" ""Nigger" is a derogatory term used to insult our ancestors." "See, if a white man used it, you'd be ready to fight." "Your using it teaches him to use it." "You're saying it's cool." "Well, it's not cool." "And when you're around me, I don't wanna hear that shit." " We clear?" " Yes, sir." " Yes, sir." " Yes, sir." "Yes, sir." "Mr. Worm, what is it you want out of this basketball season?" "To win that state championship, sir." "Well, who won the state basketball championship last season, Lyle?" "Hell if I know, sir." "Does anybody know?" "Okay." "What's your father do for a living, Mr. Lyle?" "My father's in jail, sir." "Well, I'm sorry to hear that, sir." "But that doesn't have to be your life." "My point's this:" "I have four seniors on this team," "Junior, Lyle, Kenyon and Worm." "All of whom I think can play basketball at the college level." "College." "That's a viable option for all of you." "But you have to perform in the classroom to have that chance." "You have to have a vision." "Tell me, how do you see yourselves?" "ESPN, baby." "That reminds me, Mr. Battle." "Mr. Gesek tells me he doesn't see you in his classroom very often." "Yeah, we cool, though, me and him." "Mr. Gesek is a big basketball fan." "Well, as of now, you're suspended." "Oh, you can practice, but you can't play until Mr. Gesek tells me you're caught up in his class." "And that's a shout out to the rest of you." "You signed a contract." "You made a commitment." "Now, I have your schedules and I'll be getting reports from your teachers." "If you don't perform in the classroom, you will not play." "What's up with that?" "Sit down, Mr. Battle." "All right, that's 500 push-ups." "Man, this is bullshit!" "We won those games, not you." "That's 1 ,000 push-ups for Mr. Battle, Clyde." "You wanna try for 2,000?" "Young man, think about the choice you're making if you walk out that door." "To the baseline." "All right." "How about LaQuisha, if it's a girl." "LaQuisha?" "Okay, yeah, the ghetto called and they want they name back." "Girl, LaQuisha?" "Be for real." "You might as well call the baby Food Stamp." "You're stupid." "All right, I was thinking I could call her Harmony." " l like Harmony." " Harmony, oh, that's good. I like that." " What did Kenyon say?" " Please, he want a boy." " Figures." " Speaking of Michael Jordan..." "Yo, what's wrong with a girl?" "Yeah, dog, boys grow into men, and men ain't worth the trouble." "Don't you have someplace to go?" "Something to do?" "Guess he wants me all to himself." "See you later." "Don't forget, I need your notes for history." " All right, I got you." " Yeah." "See you later." "I bought us tickets to the dance." "Why you telling these loudmouth girls about the baby?" "Now everybody's gonna know." "People are gonna know, Kenyon." " lt's not people's business, Kyra." " Why you jumping down my throat?" "What's wrong with you?" "Look, me and coach been talking, and he thinks I can play college ball." "All right, so?" "So how am I gonna do that and raise a baby?" "I don't know. I mean, I'm not saying it won't be hard." "Hard?" "It's already hard." "The kid ain't even here yet and I'm worried about how I'm gonna feed it, how I'm gonna pay for this and that." "Everything." " l'm not ready." " So, what are you saying?" "You want out?" "is that what you're saying?" "Go ahead and say it." "Look, if I wanted to be out, I would've been out by now, Kyra." "That's not it at all. I love you." "I wanna be with you." "Yeah, as long as it's convenient." "I'm thinking about what's best for us." "You're not trying to think about what's best for both of us, you're thinking about what's best for you." "You don't want me to have this baby." "You wanna leave Richmond." "You wanna go play college ball." "So guess what?" "We ain't got to be ready enough for nothing, all right?" "I'm ready enough to do what I gotta do all by my damn self." "So you can take these and go to the dance yourself." "Progress reports?" "You're the basketball coach." "Look, ma'am, we talked about this." "I don't see what the problem is." "Do you know what the api is, Mr. Carter?" "No, I don't." "The Academic Performance Index." "They judge schools on a scale of one to ten, ten being the best." "Do you have any idea where Richmond falls on that scale?" "No, ma'am, I have no idea." "We're a one, Mr. Carter, and have been for the last seven years." "The state rewards schools for their performance." "So every year I have less money to pay faculty and staff." " Look, ma'am" " Can I ask what it is you want?" " l want my boys to go to college." " College?" "Mr. Carter, Richmond graduates 50 percent of its students, the higher percentage being girls." "Now, in my very educated opinion, you have 1 5 players on your team, you'll be lucky to graduate five of them." "I'm sorry, ma'am, but I don't agree with you." "Look, these boys signed contracts." "Maybe if you'd read one of them" "Your job is to win basketball games, Mr. Carter." " l suggest you start doing your job." " And your job is to educate these kids." "I suggest you start doing yours." "Well we had another good week." "Yeah, business is very good, Kenny." "But I'm on my own." "You're never here." " lt gets crazy." " Look, I appreciate everything you do." "And I promise you" " We're closed." "as soon as the season is over, I will be here for you." "Mr. Carter?" " l'm" " Junior Battle's mother." "Yes, ma'am, I remember you." "Willa." "Willa Battle." "How may I help you, ma'am?" "Mr. Carter, I got a phone call today from a coach at a junior college in Sacramento." "Now, they wanna see Junior play this Friday." "Well, that's great, ma'am, but Junior broke some rules" "And I agree with them." "I'm not here to argue with your rules." "I'm not." "Almost two years ago now," "Junior's older brother, Anton, was killed, and it's been confusing and hard for me and for Junior." "After you lose a son every time the phone rings, your heart stops." "Now, I'm not asking for special attention." "I agree he needs to get straight with his classes." "But the idea of junior college had never even occurred to my son." "Now, I could move to the Hercules school district, and he could play there." " But moving is not gonna solve" " But I want him to play for you." "Look, I'm not gonna stand here and say I know how it feels to lose a son, because I don't." "And I do appreciate you putting your trust in me." "But I need to hear that from Junior." "He in the car." "Junior!" "Go on." "I'm sorry for what I said and did at practice, and I promise to get caught up with my classes, sir." "Look me in the eye, sir." "Everything inside me tells me if I take you back, I'd be making a mistake and you'll make a fool of me." "No, sir." "You owe me 1 ,000 push-ups and 1 ,000 suicides before you can play." "I'll see you at practice tomorrow." "Thank you, sir." "And you gonna do every last one of them." "Quitting basketball like you pay rent." "I don't know who you think you are." "The next time you make a decision, you better ask me first." "Yo, Junior, you did your thing tonight, man." " Good looking out, yo." " Yeah, good shot, Junior." " Yeah, no doubt." " Gentlemen, listen up." "I just received a call from the director of the Bayhill Holiday Tournament." "You have been invited." " Yeah!" " Yeah, baby!" "Now, I have more good news." "I spoke to Principal Garrison today." "She informs me that your teachers will have your academic-progress reports prepared by the end of holiday break." "Sir, our grades are tight, yo." "Yo, not only are our grades all right, coach," " but we undefeated, homeboy." " Yeah!" "We undefeated We undefeated" "We undefeated We undefeated" "We undefeated We undefeated" "Big ups to everybody who came out to the Richmond High winter dance, y'all!" "Get down!" "So give it up for the new kings of Richmond, y'all!" "Yeah!" "Give it up, baby!" "Yo, we 1 2-0, y'all, and I just wanna say I wanna see all the beautiful people up at that tournament." "You know!" "Y'all gonna wanna see the look on the faces of them rich fancy-schoolers when the Richmond Oilers roll into town." "Holla!" "Kyra, what are you thinking?" "You can't drink!" " You're pregnant, girl." " Stop." "It's soda, all right?" "So why don't you just go back downstairs and find one of your little girlies to freak with." "It ain't even like that." "Some girl just danced up on me." " That ain't shit." " Whatever." "You shouldn't be here." "If you're serious about this, you need to check this bullshit." "Because if not-- lf not, what, Kenyon?" "You wanna hold my hand through an abortion?" " ls that what you want?" " l don't know what I want." "You so damn sure you wanna have this baby, why don't you tell me how it's gonna be." "Everything's great, right?" "Your cousin is 1 9 with two kids already, Kyra." "It's great?" "It was great when we was getting down." "You ain't having no second thoughts about that." "You loved me when it came to that." "Look, Kyra, I can't tell you what to do, but I look around and I see exactly how I don't wanna live." "Paycheck to paycheck?" "Dead-end job?" "You make it seem like everything's gonna be all good, like everything's so wonderful." "You don't care about me." "You just wanna go to college, play ball and forget about me." " Kyra, that's not even how it is." " l don't care what you say." " l'm having this baby." " And then what?" "You got everything figured out, right?" "So tell me what comes next." "The third and final day of the 22nd Bayhill Tournament finds the host team, Bayhill, trying to win the championship against the surprising Richmond Oilers." "Defense!" "Defense!" "Get your hands up!" "Get that ball!" "Richmond uses their last timeout with 1:20 remaining in the fourth quarter" " and Bayhill up by six." " Time out!" "Come on, man." "We still in the game." "Come on." "Don't panic." "We're six down with 1 :20 left, right?" "We've been in these guys' ass the whole game." "We can do this." " This is our time, right?" " Yeah, yeah." "All right, set up the 1 -4." "Run Candy." "Damien's gonna hit the three." "Kenyon, Lyle, set a hard screen down here." "When he hits the three, go right into Diane." "Pressure the inbound pass." "Suffocate that pass." "I want the ball back!" " Come on, baby, lock up." " Hands in." " Let's go." " "Our time" on three!" " One, two, three!" " Our time!" "Come on, let's go." "One, two, three, Cougars!" "Let's go, guys!" "1 -4!" "1 -4!" "Candy!" " Hands up!" "Hands up!" " Ball, ball, ball, ball!" "Watch him!" " Watch your back!" "Come in!" " Watch the screen!"

"Yeah!" "Kenyon!" "Kenyon!" "Hattie Jean!" "Hattie Jean!" "Hattie Jean, Hattie Jean, Hattie Jean!" " D up!" " Check!" "Check!" " Get there!" " Right there!" "Get back!" "Get back!" "Get back!" "Move your feet!" "Move your feet!" "A foul, ref!" "Right wing, Kenyon, wing!" "Richmond takes the lead for the first time in the game, 7 8 to 7 6." "Slow the ball down!" "Slow the ball down!" "Let's go, Cougars, let's go!" "Defense!" "Defense!" " That's a charge!" "Driving!" " Basket's good!" "The basket counts, and the Cougars have tied the game." "That was a bad call, ref!" " Basket counts!" "One shot!" " That's a charge!" " Foul's on red five." "On the block." " Don't tie me like that!" "Coach!" "Please get back in the box." "Please get in the box?" "Please get your head in the game!" "Give me a break!" "Cruz. ln for Lyle." " Kenyon!" "Damien!" " Sub, for five." "Let's go." "Listen, we got nine seconds left." "Get the ball, push it hard." "The ball's coming to you, Kenyon." "Run Linda." "Run Linda." "You be open, all right?" "Let's go." "You can do this." "Do it." "Let's go." "Come on, sirs." "Hurry." "Let's go, guys!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "One shot." "Backboard D!" "Backboard D!" "And the Bayhill Cougars take the lead with nine seconds left." "Go to war, Miss Margaret, this is a tight one."

"D up, man!" "Yeah!" "It's all right, man." " Nice game." "Nice game." " Good game, coach." "Thank you, sir." "Rich what?" "Richmond!" "Rich what?" "Richmond!" "Rich what?" "Richmond!" "Line up!" "Line up!" "Let's shake hands." "That's what I'm talking about, coach." " Way to go, Lyle." "Good game, son." " Love you, Dad." "Ladies and gentlemen, I now present the 22nd Annual Bayhill Tournament championship trophy to Richmond High School." "Hey, number three." " Nice game." " Thank you." "Okay, cool." " All right, come on." " All right." "Watch his door." "Yo, yo." "Come on, man, let's go." "Load up, load up." "Tonya, guess what." "We won the whole thing." "That's right, 1 6-0." "Oh, and here's the best part:" "Your second-favorite man was MVP." "Wait, wait, wait, wait." "I shouldn't tell you that." "He should tell you." "I'll wake him up so he can tell you." "Hold on." "Why don't you try their doorbell with your ghetto self." "Move." "Can you reach that?" " Look at this place." " Glad you guys could come." "Oh, you know, we try to be up in here, baby." "Yo, what's up?" "This is a nice crib." "Know what?" "He must be in somebody else's room." "Like I was saying, you know, I'm Junior Battle. I'm the man." " That's what I'm talking about." " l know." " So you ain't got no boyfriend?" " Maybe." "Yo!" "You looking for your team?" "Yes, sir." "Oh, baby." "Hard biz." "Know what I'm saying?" "This is my style right here." "I'm amazing." "Feel me, Lyle?" "Hey, yo, Lyle." "Let me get a coochie juice." "I got you, dog. I got you." " Yo, Worm!" " What up, dog?" " Damien!" " Yeah?" "I'm open!" "Damien!" " Damien, are you drunk?" " No. I don't drink." " Sorry about the thing." " lt's okay." " l see you!" " l see you too." " l see her!" " Why don't we go swimming." " We're going swimming?" " Yeah." "Hey, I'm going swimming!" "I'm going swimming!" "You're going swimming with the MVP!" "MVP!" "This water's probably cold as hell, shorty. I don't know." "And swimming ain't my cup of tea, baby." "Know what I'm saying?" "Heated." "Probably 90 degrees." " We don't have bathing suits." " Right." "Neither do we." "Oh, so it's like that?" "Show me the money, then, know what I'm saying?" " Damn!" " Since it's like that." "Oh, damn." "Yeah, that's nice." " Damn!" " You are looking right." "I like that." "You guys coming?" "We're getting in there." "I gotta take my chain off so it don't turn green." "Oh, man, I can't believe this." "Heaven!" "Excuse me." " Can I help you?" " l'm Ken Carter, coach of the Richmond High basketball team." "Richmond?" " You're a little lost, aren't you?" " Well, I'm looking for my son." "The cab driver told me he dropped the team off here for a party." "Excuse me." "Oh, my God, is that--?" "Oh, my God, it's Susan's dad." "You see your son?" "Yes, sir, I do." "Damien Carter." "Get your ass out of that pool." "Yes, sir." "Richmond High players, let's go!" " Coach!" " Hey, Worm, where did you go?" "Worm?" "What up, coach?" "I got somebody I want you to meet." "Now, I just met her, but she is fine as hell." " Her name is..." " Susan!" " Susan." "He right!" " Oh, shit." "My daughter, Susan." "You are not going to like what happens in practice on Monday." "You think you've run for me before?" "I come to your rooms to celebrate with you, and you sneak-- l end up taking a road trip to the suburbs, where l find my drunk-ass point guard on top of Daddy's little princess!" "Actually, I was on the bottom, coach." "She was on the top." "Worm, do you wanna be on this team?" "Because you're about six words from getting kicked off and kicked off the goddamn bus!" "Cruz, open your eyes!" "Ghetto hoop stars!" "Signing autographs and humping the honeys!" "Well, I'm gonna show you what humping is." "Coach, we won the tournament." "We undefeated." "I mean, ain't that what you wanted?" "Winners?" "Oh, no." "Oh, no, no, no." "Oh, no!" "God--!" "You guys are awesome!" "What's up, Cruz?" "I don't know." "Coach giving us a day off, I guess." "Yo, I don't even know where the library's even at." " l bet you don't." " "Library's at"?" "He don't know where the library's at." "Quiet." "Quiet!" "Gentlemen, in this hand, I hold contracts signed by me and signed by you." "In this hand, I hold academic-progress reports prepared by your teachers." "We have six players failing at least one class, eight players getting incompletes based on attendance." "Gentlemen, you have failed to up" "No, I'm sorry." "We have failed." "We have failed each other." "Now, there are some of you who have upheld this contract." "But know that we are a team." "And until we all meet the terms of this contract, the gym will remain locked." " Locked?" " What?" " What you mean, locked?" " What, like for the day?" " He must mean for the day." " Mr. Thompson," "Mr. Gesek and Miss Sherman have generously volunteered their time to help us reach our goals." "But, coach, I have a 3.3." "That's good, sir." "Do you score all the points for the team too?" "We are the Richmond Oilers." "Do you know what Oilers stands for?" "Sir?" "Know that you're not just walking out on me." "You're walking out on them." "I had to beg you." "And then I ran all those sprints." "I did all that shit." "I killed myself for you, sir, to get back on the team." "This is bullshit." "You put a lock on the gym and forced them to meet you in the library?" " Are you crazy?" " Miss Garrison." "I'm surprised you know where my office is." "Take the lock off that gym." "My phone hasn't stopped ringing." "Maybe someone on the other end of that phone has a solution to our problem." "Your intentions are good, Mr. Carter, but your methods are a bit extreme." "You painted an extreme picture." "No one expects them to graduate, no one expects them to go to college." "So you take away basketball, the one area of their lives" " where they have some success?" " Yes, ma'am." "And you challenge them academically?" " Yes, ma'am." " And what if they fail?" "Then we've failed." "Unfortunately, Mr. Carter, both you and I know that for some of these kids, this basketball season will be the highlight of their lives." "Well, I think that's the problem." "Don't you?" " Good morning, Coach Carter." " Good morning." "Quite the Pandora's box you've opened." "Oh, I get all the blame now?" "Let's just say I'm happy to give you all the credit." "I've got every news reporter in town waiting to speak to you." "Got a press conference set up around the front of the gymnasium." "Coach Carter has taken the lockout to the next level by canceling last night's game." "Richmond forfeited the game, making it their first loss of the season." "And for now, the lock remains on the gym." "Here he comes." "Here he comes now." "Coach Carter!" "Coach!" "Can I get a question?" "Good morning, ladies and gentlemen." "I'd like to thank you for your patience." "At this time, I'd like to introduce Coach Ken Carter." "You may direct your questions to him." "Mr. Carter, is it unfair to the players whose grades qualify them to play?" "Basketball's a team sport, sir." "We support each other on and off the court." "Anybody still think coach bluffing now?" "I feel like running right up in the middle of all those reporters and telling them I think this is bullshit, son." "Maybe you should've gone to class, Lyle." "Maybe you should kiss my ass, dog." "My grades are fine, homeboy." " lt's Junior they should've locked out." " Maybe Junior will kick your ass out." " Why don't you try spelling it, then." " Chill, chill, chill, man." "Damn." " Junior, if you need help, I'll tutor you." " Man, I don't need no help." "Well, he ain't lock us out for no reason." "We been tripping lately, man." "All y'all know it." "How do you think the community's gonna react to this lockout?" "I'm not really sure. I hope they'll support these young men." "What, man?" "No, man, it's just funny, dog, because, Junior, man, you thought it was bad all us knew your dumb ass was failing science." "Now the whole world about to know your dumb ass failing science." " Man." " Hey, man." "And you have Fremont this Saturday, the biggest game on your schedule." "Now, Richmond is gonna riot if you forfeit that game." "Saturday is a long way off." "We'll see what happens." "Thank you all for coming." "That's all the time I have right now." "I have to get back to work." "Coach, have you talked to any of the parents?" "Thank you for your time, ladies and gentlemen." "I'd like to remind you that classes are in session, so as you leave campus, please do so quietly." "I ain't turning the cheek." "He come up in my 'hood, I'm serious, it's on." " Young sirs." " lt's always been like that." "It's been a long day." "Reporters." "Media everywhere." "Let's take this time to say whatever it is we want while the doors are closed." "You have the floor." "This is about us." "Man, this shit ain't about us." "This is all about Coach Carter." "We're the basketball team." "All I see is you on TV, getting famous, eating that shit up." " ls that all you see?" " lt's all I see." "You ain't lying." "Well, let me tell you what I see." "I see a system that's designed for you to fail." "Now, I know you all like stats, so let me give you some." "Richmond High only graduates 50 percent of its students." "And of those that do graduate, only 6 percent go to college." "Which tells me, when I walk down the halls and I look in your classrooms, maybe only one student is going to go to college." ""Well, damn, Coach Carter, if I ain't going to college, where l'm gonna go?"" "Now, that's a great question." "And the answer for young African-American men in here is this:" "probably to prison." "In this county, 33 percent of black males between 1 8 and 24 get arrested." "So look at the guy on your left." "Now look at the guy on your right." "One of you is going to get arrested." "Growing up here in Richmond, you're 80 percent more likely to go to prison than college." "Those are the numbers." "Those are some stats for your ass." "Now, I want you to go home and look at your lives tonight and look at your parents' lives and ask yourself, "Do I want better?"" "If the answer is yes, I'll see you here tomorrow." "And I promise you I will do everything in my power to get you to college and to a better life." "I don't understand this." "It's a letter, how can it be a number?" "How are balancing those equations coming?" " l can't do this." " Hold on." "Come on, son." "Don't give up yet, son." "Here's a story out of California that's getting national attention." "The entire boys' basketball team at Richmond High School has been benched." "The highly ranked Oilers have a perfect season on the court, but some players were in big trouble academically." "And in an unprecedented move, Coach Ken Carter canceled practice, locked the gym and sent his players straight to the library." "Now, at the start of the season, I understand you made all of your players sign a contract before they could join the team." "What exactly were the conditions of that contract?" "The contract states that the players must maintain a 2.3 grade point average and that the players must attend all their classes and sit in the front row of those classes." "Well, Coach Carter, it's an unusual strategy, and a risky one in a sense, in light of your team's winning record, but I think there's gonna be a lot of people out there pleased to learn" "that at least somebody still cares about the concept of a student athlete." "Thanks a lot for joining us today." "I'm sorry to disturb you." "I'm Coach Ken Carter of the Richmond High School basketball team." "Oh, yeah." "I need to ask you a favor." "My team is studying in the library, and I've been trying to tell them that brains and beauty are a perfect combination." "Know what I'm saying?" "I mean, I'm Worm, baby." "How would you like to watch the Worm work?" "Hey, where did you get that backpack?" "Watch out, Too Short." "Why study earth science or history or algebra?" "Getting good grades in those subjects, combined with basketball skills, can get you into college." "Girl, you should've bought it." "I would've worn it." "You selfish son of a bitch." "You snake." " Miss" " No, no, don't "miss" me, snake." "Mr. Carter, you remember me?" "Now, after all the things that my son has been through for your team, for you to go lock up this gym like this, how dare you..." "Open up the damn gym!" "Let the boys play!" "What's up, little cousin?" "How you doing?" "Got something for me?" "That's what I'm talking about." "Hey, hey." "Put it down, man." " You Coach Carter, right?" " Yes, sir." " Yeah?" "Check this out, man." " Hey, hold on, man." " Yeah." "How you like that?" " Oh, hell no." " What?" "What?" " You wanna get out the car?" " Let's talk about this." " Ain't nothing to talk about." "Just open up the gym, man." "Let them boys play." "Trust me, you don't want me out this car." "Yeah, see?" "Yeah." " Get on!" " Don't be no punk." "Say what you gotta say." " Come on back, punk." " Dad." "Relax." "Relax, let it go." "No, I ain't letting nothing go." "These people in Richmond-- Goddamn it!" " Relax, Dad." " Damn it!" "Relax, relax." "Chill out." "It's over. lt's over." "All right?" "He doesn't mean anything. lt's over." "Let it go." "Come on, get back in the car." "Let's go." "I think you know who she is, but she's got a friend." "I mean, dog..." "You gotta hook me up." "Why I always gotta hook him up?" "Sound like I'm the Love Connection." "Just start a conversation." "I'll take care of it." " Yeah." " Yes, girl." "You don't remember me, do you?" "But, see... I was just ready to duff Duke out." " Some serious shit." " You should have did it, man." "You talking all that shit, just do it." "Know what I'm saying?" " You let somebody do that to you." " l let him?" " Yo, Oscar, man." " What?" "Don't go nowhere. I'll be right out." " l gotta talk to you." " l already told you..." " No." "You guys is kind of passing..." " l know I'm fine." "But I'm not feeling myself, I'm feeling you." "Hey, I'm gonna holler at my boys across the street for a quick minute." "Come on, man." "Hurry up, man." " All right." " You know who we are, then?" " Here they go." " What do we have here?" " The Three Stooges from Richmond." " Punk, punk, punk." " Larry, Co and Dummy." " Bitches." "Dummy and dumb and dumber." "I mean, what the hell is the bitchman from Richmond doing on our side of the turf?" "You garbage." "I can't believe y'all won." " Shut up, woman." " Don't be-- l don't understand how y'all won." " Y'all wack-star niggas." " Y'all wacked." "Wacked." "Yo, shut your bitch ass up." " l don't wanna hear you talking shit." " Homey, you a benchwarmer!" "Get the hell out my face, whitey!" "Let's do it, homey." "Let's do it, homey." " What you trying to do?" " He got a piece, man." "You feel me right now, huh?" "You feel me right now?" " Y'all brought a gun." " Pinole homey." "Feel me?" "Keep it up the block, homey." "I'm right here, homey." "I'm right here." "Right here." "It's all good." "Y'all brought a gun!" "Pinole!" "Bitch-ass..." "Pinole, right?" " Are they serious?" " l'll knock his braids out." "Nice to see the fight in you, dog." " Know what I'm saying?" " Appreciate the backup." "Word." "I'm gonna see y'all later, all right?" " All right, homey." " Good looking." "No doubt." " l'm gonna check y'all." " You got this." "This is my paper, man." "I'm not playing with you." "Then why don't you stop getting in my face." "Renny!" "Renny!" "I can't believe-- He was just standing there." " Renny!" " Oh, shit." " Come on." "Help me." "Call 91 1 ." " Call 91 1 , man." "Yo, I need a phone." "I need something... I just need you to stay with me, okay?" "Hold his head up." "Somebody help me!" " Cruz?" " l wanna come back, coach." " What's going on?" " l wanna come back on the team." "What the hell happened?" "They shot him." "Renny." "They shot Renny." "I mean, we was just there." "We was just there." "Everything was good." " Come inside." "Come on." " Everything was good, coach." "I mean, you know..." "Come inside, son." " Come on." " You don't understand." "I wanna come back on the team." "What do I gotta do to play?" "Don't worry about that, son." "Just come inside." "Whatever you want me to do, I'll do it, okay?" "Okay." "Okay." "Okay. I got you." "Come on." "Come on, you're back with us now." "I can't believe they shot him." "Just come inside now, all right?" " Come on." " l just wanna be on the team." "Come on." "Come on." "Whatever you want me to do, I'll do it, okay?" "The state only requires a 2.0 GPA for participation in extracurricular activities." " Yes, ma'am." " And according to your contract, the players are agreeing to maintain a 2.3?" "That, among other things." "Yes, ma'am." " Other things like...?" " Attending all classes, sitting in the front row of those classes, and wearing a tie on game day." "I see." "Mr. Carter, does the lockout include practices and games?" "And do you have a set period of time?" "There will be no basketball, ma'am." "Please." "Quiet, please." "That includes practices and games, until we as a team reach the agreed-upon GPA." "Please, quiet." "Please, quiet." "Quiet." "Thank you, Mr. Carter." "In the interest of time, I'd like to open this board meeting up for comments." "As a teacher, I was offended when asked by a coach to provide progress reports." "Nowhere in my contract does it say that I have to do so." "It creates more work." "This lockout has brought negative media attention that questions our abilities as educators." "End this madness." "End this lockout." "I'm Jason Lyle's uncle." "That boy lives to play ball." "Comes to school every day now." "You take away basketball," "God knows what he'd be into." "Yesterday, he canceled the Fremont game." "Now, that's the biggest game of the year." "I have scouts coming to watch my boy play." " Me too." " These boys are 1 6-0." "This whole school, this whole community, is behind this team." "Everybody goes to every game." "Basketball is the only thing that these boys have got." "Are we gonna let Carter come in here and take that away from them?" " No!" " l don't think so." "Not gonna happen." " l'd like to make a motion." " Yes, Mr. Walters?" "I move that we remove Mr. Carter as head basketball coach." "Order, please." "Order." "This board does not have the authority to terminate employment of a staff position." "Then I move we end the lockout and let the kids play." "I second the motion." " Okay." " lf l may?" "Yes, Mr. Carter." "You really need to consider the message that you're sending these boys." "It's the same message that we as a culture send to our pro athletes, which is that they are above the law." "Now, I'm trying to teach these boys the discipline that will inform their lives and give them choices." "If you endorse the fact that 1 5-, 1 6- and 1 7-year-olds don't have to honor the simple rules of a basketball contract, how long do you think it'll be before they're out there breaking laws?" "Now, I played basketball at Richmond 30 years ago." "It was the same thing then." "Some of my teammates ended up in prison." "Some of them ended up dead." "I took this job because I wanted to effect change in a special group of young men, and this is the only way I know how to do that." "If you vote to end the lockout, you won't have to terminate me." "I'll quit." "Good." "Thank you, Mr. Carter." "The board now recognizes five voting members." "In this instance, we will be accepting the vote of Principal Garrison as well." "Now, I put to those members the vote on whether or not to end the lockout." "All those in favor of ending the lockout will raise their right hand when called upon." "I will vote first by not raising my hand." "Principal Garrison?" "Valerie Walker." "Benson Chiu." "Parent rep, Mr. Cepeda." "And Ms. Nyugen." " Yes." " Thank you." "The lockout ends with a vote of 4 to 2." "If there's no other business, this board meeting is adjourned." "Thank you all for coming." "Mr. Carter." "Are you sure you wanna do this?" "Look, I know we haven't always seen eye to eye, but you've done such a great job with these boys, it seems wrong to just" "Look." "No offense, ma'am, but all the work I did with those boys was negated when they ended the lockout." "I don't think that's true, l" "The board sent the message loud and clear." "Winning basketball games is more important than graduating from high school and going to college." "I'm sorry, I just can't support that message." "Sir, they can cut the chain off the door, but they can't make us play." "We've decided we're gonna finish what you started, sir." "Yeah, so leave us be, coach." "We got shit to do, sir." "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate." "Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure." "It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us." "Your playing small does not serve the world." "There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you." "We were all meant to shine, as children do." "It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone." "And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same." "As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." "Sir, I just wanna say thank you." "You saved my life." "Thank you, sirs." "All of you." "Academic-progress reports, young men." "These things are unbelievable." "I know you've been trying." "I guess there's only one way to say this." "Gentlemen, we've reached our goal." "Let's play ball." "Rich what?" "Richmond!" "Rich what?" "Richmond!" "Rich what?" "Richmond!" "Hustle back." "Get back, get back." "Set it, Worm." "Set it." "Watch baseline." " Take it." " Take it, come on." " Yes!" " Find a man." "Find a man." "Swing it, swing it." "Go, go, go." "Go, go." "Come on!" "Go Richmond!" "Hold the ball, hold the ball!" "Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, see you!" " Great game, coach." " Good game." "Richmond returns from their lockout and keeps their streak alive at 1 7 games." "A team that won only four games last year is now a Cinderella team that has to be thinking that there's a chance of getting the phone call to come to the dance." "is Richmond headed for the state tournament?" "So, what else y'all gonna do at the park when you go?" " Seesaw." " Seesaw?" " You're gonna seesaw?" " Yeah." " Who's gonna push you?" " My mommy's gonna push me." "Yeah?" "That's good." "I wish I could go with you." " Come on, baby." " But I'll see you later, okay?" " Bye." " Bye." "How you been?" "Good." "You look good." "Thank you." "So do you." "Considering." "You know, everything's been crazy, with the lockout." "Yeah, it'll be all right." "For sure." "Can we sit down somewhere?" "I've been trying to get my head straight about things." "A lot of things." "Especially us." " Kenny, l" " Kyra, just listen." "Please." "For a long time, it's just been my moms, my boys and you." "And that's what I counted on." "I'm trying to count on myself now, and I'm all right and shit, it's just, without you, nothing good feels as good." "It's like I'm missing some happy part of me." "I got you something." "And it ain't from the 99 Cent Store." "Shut up." " They gave you a scholarship?" " Yeah, baby, a full ride." "Oh, my gosh." "That is crazy." "Oh, my gosh." "I know you gonna kill it up there." "No, we gonna kill it up there." "I told them about you and the baby." "They wanna help us." "Kenyon there is no more baby." "I decided not to go through with it." "Kyra." "I had a choice to make, so I made it." "For me, Kenny." "Well, when...?" "Why didn't you tell me?" "I would have gone with you." "I'm so sorry." "Kyra, I'm so sorry you had to go through that by yourself." "My mom went with me." "But I think that... I think you should go to school and play ball and do your thing." "You know?" "I want that for you." "And that's real." "I think you should be all you can." "I want you to come with me." "Kyra, I love you." "I want you to come with me." " You serious?" " l'm serious." " Oh, my God." " l love you." "I love you too." "Ken Carter." "I understand, sir." "All right." "Thank you, sir." "We're in." "That's what I'm talking about." "Guys, guys, guys." "Now, listen." "It's not gonna be easy." "It's gonna be a long road." " We're a really low seed." " Who did we get, coach?" "St. Francis." "St. Francis?" "Coach, they ranked number one in the state." "Hey, yo, Junior, man, don't worry about Ty Crane, dog." "You'll get him." "We got this." "That's all right, baby." "One game at a time." "We got this." " All right, guys." " lt's on." " Bring your A game, young man." " Yes, sir." "Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the first round of the cif playoffs." "St. Francis is one of the best high school teams in the nation, with Ty Crane believed to be a shoo-in for the top NBA draft pick next year." "On the other side of the court is Richmond, a team that's had a media-worthy season as well." "Richmond High has never played in a state tournament." "Let's go." "Let's go, let's go." " Settle down, settle down." " 1 -4!" "Ball, ball." "Move, move." "Good shot, baby." " Get back, get back." " Run motion." "Run motion." "Motion 44." "Right here, right here." "Swing it." "Force him left." "Force him left." "You gotta force him left." "The baseline's another defender." "D up!" "Better get somebody else to hold me." "I'm dropping 50." "Set up!" "Come on." "Get on him, get on him." "Get over here and help." "He shouldn't be scoring." "Get back, get back." "Bring it in." "Get back, get back." "Find your man, find your man." "Now, watch out." "Watch that trap." "Watch the trap." "Motion." "Motion." "That's the one." "That's it." "Yes!" "Yes!" "S-C-O-R-E!" "Score!" "Score!" "Ball, ball." "Ball, man!" "Lyle, stop the ball." "Less talk out there." "Come on, come on, come on." "Let's go, Richmond!" "You gotta help Junior on the weak-side pick." " Delilah!" "Delilah!" " Defense!" "Defense!" " Defense!" "Defense!" " Delilah!" "Delilah!" "Delilah!" "Delilah!" " Get there, get there." " Trap, trap, trap." "Left side, left side." " Use the pick, use the pick." " l got it." " Yeah!" "That's what I'm talking about." " Foul, number three." " Hold up." " Number three." " Mustangs, bring it in." "Bring it in." " Count the basket." " Damn." " Timeout, sir." "Time." "Come here, come here." "Damn it." "Come on, guys, keep up the defense!" "Come on, what you gonna do?" "We still in this game." "Come on, fellas." "Gentlemen, you told me you deserved to be here." "Well, you're not playing like it." "All season long, we played our game." "Right now, you're playing theirs." "When we step on the floor, every second that clock is ticking, we are pedal to the metal." "We run the ball." "We pressure the ball." "And most importantly, we control the tempo of the game!" "We make them play Richmond Oiler ball." "Worm, you can take this kid." "Force him left, and when he crosses over, you jump him." "Damien, push the tempo." "Kenyon, Lyle, crash the boards." "Cruz, when you're in the game in transition, take that jumper you love." "Junior, just keep doing what you're doing." "Hold on to that monster." "You do those things, gentlemen, and I guarantee you, at the end of the game, we will be there." "All right, hands in." " Game time." " All right, take control of this game." "Who's gonna win this game?" "One, two, three, Richmond!" "Let's go." "Let's do this." "One, two, three, Mustangs!" " Get up, get up." " Go, go, go." "Yes." " Reach-in foul." " That's the only damn one." " How you gonna call that on me, ref?" " Good call, ref." "Cruz. ln for Kenyon." " Ball, ball, ball, ball." " Run it, run it, run it." "Get back, get back!" "Everybody get back." "Yeah!" "Come on!" "Get back, get back, get back." "Ref, you gotta call that." "This is my house." " Push, push." " Can we get a call?" "Take care of the ball, man." "I'm gonna catch my breath." "Come on." "Get back, get back." "Swing it right here. I got it." "Charge." " Go get them, boys." " Yeah, baby." "Charge, number 30." "Red ball." "Come on, ref, you wasn't even there." " Red ball, red ball." "Red, red, red." " Yes." "Yes." " Richmond's ball." " What?" "Okay, let's go." "Let's go." " Red ball." " Junior, good block!" " l know that's a foul." " lt's all ball." " What are you talking about?" " What's up, man?" "Knock his bitch ass out." "Calm down, man." "We're still in the game." "Come on." " Ease back." " Bring it in." "Bring it in." "Get out of my way, man." "Get off me." "Let's go, let's go." "All right, baby, it's all us now." "It's all us." "Let's go." "They're standing on the edge of a cliff." "All we gotta do is push them off." "We're gonna run Candy." "Worm, you gotta sell them the pass to Damien." "Junior, we come to you on the weak-side seal." "But, gentlemen, just because you deserve this doesn't mean they're gonna give it to you." "Sometimes you gotta take what's yours." "You ready to do this?" " Hell, yeah." " Let's go." " All right, hands in." " Come on, take this." "Richmond on three." "One, two, three, Richmond!" " Careful of the foul, all right?" "Let's go." " l got you. 1 -4, 1 -4!" " All right." " Defense!"

"Yeah, that's what I'm talking about, baby." "Yeah!" "Mustangs!" "Mustangs!" "Hold on, hold on." "Let me down, let me down." "Battle, Battle!" "Battle!" "You're real, man." "I mean that." "All right?" "All right?" "Keep your head up, baby." "Well, not quite your storybook ending, huh?" "Not for us, anyway." "But you men played like champions." "You never gave up." "And champions hold their heads high." "What you achieved goes way beyond the win-loss column or what's gonna be written on the front page of the sports section tomorrow." "You've achieved something that some people spend their whole lives trying to find." "What you achieved is that ever-elusive victory within." "And, gentlemen I am so proud of you." "Four months ago, when I took the job at Richmond, I had a plan." "That plan failed." "I came to coach basketball players, and you became students." "I came to teach boys and you became men." "And for that, I thank you." "If someone walked in this door right now and offered me the coaching job at any school in the state of California, you know which team I'd choose?" "St. Francis?" "I'm just saying, man." "Kenyon?" " Richmond?" " Rich what?" " Richmond." " Rich what?" "Richmond." " Rich what?" " Richmond." " Where we from?" " Richmond!" " What's my hometown?" " Richmond!" " What do we love?" " Richmond!" " Rich what?" " Richmond!"

"Coffee's terrible here." "All right, fine, look." "Shea, I'm here to stop you from making a huge mistake." "You don't know what you're talking about." "Shea, let me just" "Just answer me one question, okay?" "What does this--what does this clay kid have" "That marcus doesn't?" "I--I don't know." "It's just, he's into all the same stuff that I am." "And..." "Marcus is--he's just still such a kid." "Yeah, I mean, I hear you." "I hear you." "You know, he may be on the sheltered side." "You know, and he may still occasionally nap with a blankie." "He naps with a blankie?" "Scratch that." "I never said that, okay?" "Look, there are so many cooler guys in the world" "Than marcus, all right?" "But, shea, there is no one" "With a bigger, sweeter heart" "And a goofier, braver spirit than marcus." "And I will take that" "Over that polished act clay's got any day." "(fiona) um, excuse me." "[loud music in headphones]" "Oi!" "Those precious to you, are they?" "Uh, yeah." "Well, I'd like you to imagine what it would feel like" "To have something that you cared about deeply" "Ripped out of your hands, 'cause then you'll understand how my son feels." "Okay, look, mrs..." "Will's neighbor." "Um, I didn't rip anyone away, okay?" "I'm not sure you get how liking someone works." "Oh, you're not sure I get that." "Mm-hmm." "Well."

"I have not begun to bring the crazy." "Basketball's not your sport, is it?" "Ladies." "Hey, we have a situation." "Oh, yeah, we have a situation." "You allowed your girlfriend's son" "To ruin marcus's date and probably his life." "Okay, the important thing is," "I am doing something about it, all right?" "Well, I'm doing something about it." "I've done something about it." "[knocking at door] bloody hell." "Listen, stay right there." "I am not done with you." "[knocking continues]" " [groans] - hi." "What were you thinking," "Accosting my kid at school today?" "I didn't accost him." " Oh, come in." " Well, because he told me" "That you stole his headphones" "And then you threatened to "bring the crazy"?" "Yeah, well, that's just cockney rhyming slang" "For..." "Something." "Well, nothing that you'd understand, actually." "And you know what?" "I did accost him." "I did." "But he started it." "Wow, I cannot believe I thought you were cool." "I am cool." "Hey, guys, what are you talking about?" "And of course you're here," "At your neighbor's house, mm-hmm." "Are you aware that she basically mugged my child today?" "What?" "I did not mug your child." "I confiscated his headphones, and he deserved it." "Remember when I was telling you" "How whenever you get near someone I like" "What was it, good things happen or bad things happen?" "I forget." "Yeah, by butting into something that had nothing to do with you." "Kids need to make their own mistakes, you know." "That's the only way they learn anything." "Two women, two parenting styles." "I think we should agree to disagree" "That is the most facile, tiger motherish thing to say." "You know why your son doesn't need protecting?" " Why?" " 'cause he's the bully." "Oh, that's interesting, coming from a woman" "Who threatens a child half her size." "Oh, oh, oh!" "We're going to do" "The tall girl jokes now, are we?" "Well, hey, if the gigantic shoe fits..." "Get ready!" "Oh, you watch yourself." "I am a krav maga level seven." "Well, I am a mama bear level eight." "Ladies, ladies, ladies!" "As much as I would like to watch you guys go at it" "And tear each other's clothes off," "Just get in there, ah," "I need you to relax and chill!" " Ooh!" " Oh, my gosh, are you okay?" "Yeah, I was trying to tell you that I talked to shea" "And I think I really may have gotten through to her." "Well, do you think she'll change her mind about dumping him?" "Ugh, this is the strangest relationship ever." "Will, mom!" "Clay's mom." "I don't know what happened while I was unconscious," "But it must have been pretty good," "Because I just got a text from shea" "Saying, "we need to talk."" "I owe it all to you, will." "Are you sure?" "So sorry, buddy." "Look, you know, all I can say is," "I've been in your shoes, and it's just" "You've had the girl you're crazy about" "Leave you for somebody else?" "N-no, not exactly." "But, you know, there have been things that I've wanted" " That I haven't gotten-- - she's not some new iphone" "There's a waiting list for." "She's my heart and my soul and..." "She's here." ""she walks in beauty, like the night" ""of cloudless climes and starry skies." ""and all that's best of dark and bright" "Meet in her aspect and her eyes."" "That was so beautiful, man." "Is that john mayer?" "Lord byron, you handsome dummy." "[sighs]" "Well, I guess this is it." "Got to go have the talk with her." "Listen." "If you need help, I'll go down there with you." "No." "I need to do this one on my own." "[sighs]" "Hey, you--you said you wanted to talk?" "Fyi, I just found out what that means." "Yeah, uh..." "God, this is so hard." "Have you--have you read the fire be with me books?" "I have not." "Well, um," "There's this sorceress, meeha," "And she--she has this awful decision to make." "She has to choose between kade, the man-wolf," "And soren, the wind whisperer." "Yeah, I'm just gonna take a wild guess" "That in this analogy, I am not the man-wolf." "And the thing is," "She really likes the both of them," "Just in different ways." "And she goes back and forth for, like, hundreds of years." "That's--that's kind of how I feel." "I like you." "I really do." "But I--I also like somebody else," "And it's really confusing." "Does that make sense?" "Not really." "I mean, you're my favorite." "I'd never go back and forth about you." "Marcus, that's what makes this really hard." "You're just so sweet." "I get it." "You don't feel the same way that I do," "And you feel too bad about hurting me" "To come out and say it, so I've got to say it for you." "Good-bye, shea." "It was brief, but it was beautiful." "Thanks for letting me get to know you." "You turned out even greater than I thought you would." "And I thought you'd be pretty great."

"I--I think what your mom is trying to say is," "You know, you kept your dignity, man," "And we're just so proud of you for that." "What good is my dignity?" "Can my dignity hold my hand on my way to school?" "[crying] no!" "Can my dignity kiss me four times?" "No, darling." "You only kissed her four times?" "Would you shut up?" "I'm sorry, but he-- he was going out with her" "For, like, months." "I may have missed her lips a couple times," "Caught some earlobe instead." "Well, that's still face, man, so that counts." "You know, will, the only beacon of light" "Shining in the black sea of despair that is my heart" "Is knowing that I'm not the only one who'll be alone." "That's right." "That's a really good way of looking at it." "Your mom is all alone too." "Yeah, thank you for bringing that up" "Right now, will." "No, I meant you, will."

"'Cause I know I'm not gonna get anywhere on this letter with you staring at me like that." "I'm sorry." "Who am I to think you want to tell me about your personal life?" "But I can't help wondering." "The picnic, the lookout?" "Do you and the boss have something going?" " Yes, we have." " Ohh!" "Ohh!" "And this something, is it really something?" "If you mean the something your Dark Prince writes about, no." "Oh." "Well, what sort of something do you have?" "Well, I" " I don't really know yet, Mildred." "But it's definitely something." "But I'll keep you posted, sort of, uh, gal-to-gal, all right?" "Oh, dear God!" "Is it the same one?" "It must be." "Oh, he promised me a surprise, but how on earth did you find it?" " Oh, you're wonderful." " [ Giggling ]" "I don't care." "I don't care if it is bad luck to see him before... everybody go getJoe, quick." "I take it you must be Mrs. Berkholtzer." "No, but I will be in 20 minutes if the reverend can remember his lines." "I supposeJoe told you that we made love for the very first time in this car." " No." "Not in so many words." " I was still married to Calvin then and" "Oh, I can remember sitting there and telling Joe that no matter what we felt... it was impossible for us, something that was never meant to be." "But I was wrong, wasn't I?" "And here's the proof." "Well, I hate to shatter anyone's illusions" "Oh, no, no." "I mean, that's not possible." "I thought that I would never get over Calvin's death." "Oh." "I knew that it was just one of those senseless shootings... you hear about on the news all the time, but I felt so guilty." "I blamed myself." "And-And now Joe is back and" "Oh." " Not yet." " Oh,Joseph." "I think you are the most extraordinary man alive." "Am I now?" "[ Doorbell Chimes ]" "Uh, what can I do for you?" "My name is Laura Holt." "I'm looking for a Clarissa McCullum." "Does she still live here?" " Why, uh, she" " Who is it, Sam?" "Mrs. McCullum?" "Actually, I'm from Classic Motor Magazine... and my editor had this crazy idea of doing an article... tracing the histories of some great classic cars." " Well, I'm afraid we don't own anything like that." " What classic car?" "A 1 936 Supercharged Auburn Speedster." "According to the D.M.V. records, you were the original owner." " The Auburn." " What do you want to talk about an old car for?" "Oh, now, don't be rude, Sam." "We have a guest." "Now, go in there and make us a pot of tea." "Can I offer you a cup?" "I'd love one." "Boy, you really put me in a bind..." " showing up like that, sport." " Hmm." "Are you sure you won't change your mind now and sell me that car?" "I'll guarantee you a 50% profit." "Well, the car's not really mine to sell." "I'm merely looking into this little mystery for a friend." "You didn't by any chance receive a copy of a letter that, uh, looked like this?" "" The key to something of great value is hidden in your Auburn... and you know what I mean... soon."" "It's weird, but, uh, it's news to me." "Yes." "And you can't think of any reason or anything... that would make someone willing enough to kill for that car?" "To tell you the truth, I never really bought the car." "Way back when, I, uh, I did some work for the first owner." "She ran out of cash, and so I took the car in trade." "After a while, I got bored with it, and I sold it to some car dealer." "Well, in that case, uh, sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your time." "Hey, you're welcome to stay for the wedding if you want." "Uh, that's very kind, but, uh, weddings make me cry." "My husband,John, bought me that car." "John bought me lots of things." "He seemed determined to prove to the world how much he loved me." "I don't think he really knew how." "What did you do?" "I fell in love with someone else." "Langston." "Langston Drews." "My husband had hired him to do some surveying on the estate." "And I'd walk along with him on the surveys." "He was always checking his compass, counting his strides, scribbling maps." "But he was so frightfully handsome, and I felt so empty." " And your husband never knew?" " Not at first." "Langston would meet me in the Auburn by the garden." "And we'd drive through the woods to the large chestnut tree with the bench... and make love." "The best love." "Not that sordid stuff you see in the movies nowadays." "I'm almost afraid to ask." "Yes,John found out." "He'd given me a senselessly expensive necklace... and invited all our friends over to appreciate his generosity." "I got an urgent note from Langston." "It was risky, but I slipped away." "And when I met him at the car... he insisted that we run away together then and there." "Well, I hadn't expected anything like that." "I thought he'd gone mad." "I was terrified." "I said no." "And somehow, he took the necklace." "When I returned to the party, it was gone and John knew." "Did you think he had something like that in mind from the very beginning?" "I couldn't believe that." "But I didn't know what to think." "Langston knew that estate better than any of us." "He knew they'd be waiting for him at the gate." "Well, he was arrested." "John used his influence to get him a hopeless prison sentence." "They searched the car a hundred times, the house, the grounds." "But to my knowledge, the necklace was never recovered." "And you never saw Langston again?" "Never." "Sometime later,John died." "And, except for the Auburn... he left the entire estate to the city." "I think it's a park now." "Then you met and married Sam?" "Oh, Sam and I aren't married." "We're just living together." "I think it's more exciting that way anyhow." "[ Laura Panting ]" "[ Laura Moaning ]" "[ Laura ] Don't stop." "[ Both Grunting ]" "How was it for you, Laura?" "Oily." "But it hardly seems like the key to something of great value." "Well, the letter said it was in the Auburn." " Something was keeping this wedged in place." "Come on." " Back under." "Well, so far, all we've managed to come up with... is a mass of recording tape caught in the seat coils." " The Yellow Rolls-Royce." " This is still an Auburn, no?" "No." "The Yellow Rolls-Royce." "Rex Harrison, George C. Scott, Shirley MacLaine..." "Art Carney, Ingrid Bergman, Omar Sharif, MGM, 1 965." "Is there a movie for every case we have?" " It seems that way, doesn't it?" " Mm." "You see, this yellow Rolls-Royce is passed on from owner to owner." "The only connection between them is that they each had an affair in the car... which changed the course of their lives." " This car does seem to have that effect on people." " With a passion." " What is that?" " What is it?" "Don't know." "Looks like a bullet." "A bullet." "Naturally." "The grille of the car." "Come on." "The shot must have torn through the grille... gone under the engine and lodged itself in the carriage." "Didn't you tell me the new Mrs. Berkholtzer said her first husband... was killed in a senseless shooting?" "I think it's time we had another little chat with Mr. Berkholtzer." "That won't be necessary." "I don't know how you found out about me and Calvin... but for what it's worth, it was an accident." "He'd gotten wise to me and Jeanette." "He didn't know she was gonna break it off." "So he threatened to kill me." "We struggled in front of the car, the gun went off." "I was just a construction worker for him then." "I couldn't giveJeanette the life she needed." "But I knew if she ever found out that I shot Calvin, I'd never get her back." "So I dumped his body in the park." "Ifixed the grille." "I spent the last eight years building a contracting company of my own." "Yes, well, it seems you have everything now, doesn't it?" "That's right." "And I don't intend to lose it now." "I didn't want to do this." "That's why when I got your letter, I tried to steal the car, but you got it back." "Then I thought a couple of shots would scare you off, but you just kept coming." "We never sent any letter." "But that doesn't explain... why you tried to run us down in the park in the first place." "What park?" "I don't know what you're talking about."

"We've certainly done a heck of a night's work for the D.A." "Yep." "Which doesn't solve our problem, eh?" "Do you think whoever sent those letters was out to blackmail Berkholtzer?" "I'd like to think so, but it just doesn't make any sense." "If they knew about the murder, why send letters to everyone else?" "No." "No, whoever's behind this wants us right in the middle." "Now all we have to figure out is why." "Which leaves us with a coil full of tape." "Maybe there's something on this that can put all the pieces together." "I'll try to get this unscrambled." "Yes." "Well, there certainly are enough pieces to go around, aren't there?" "Laura?" "Laura?" " Good morning." " Good morning."

"[ Doorbell Chimes ]" "Ah, good news, Dr. Harvey." "We found your car, by the way." "Oh, that's wonderful." "Tell me, Dr. Harvey, has your wife returned yet?" "No." "She decided to stay a few days longer." "Well, that's very interesting, because according to our research... you've never been married." "Now, are there any other little corrections you'd like to make to your story?" " You found the tape, didn't you?" " As a matter of fact" "I knew when I came back and found you in here it was no accident." "And then when I went through my mail and found the letter you sent" "How much do you want to keep quiet about her?" " Her, who?" " You know who" " Monica." "The patient of mine I had the affair with." "You had an affair with one of your patients?" "Oh, I know you can get me drummed right out of psychiatry for something like that." "But when Monica first came to see me, she was a broken spirit." "Crushed by betrayal and rejected at every turn." "And then, week by week, bit by bit... we began to build a whole new life together." "New job, new friends, new clothes." "You don't know what it's like to do that for someone." "Right before my eyes she blossomed, and she loved me for it." "As a doctor, I knew I should have discounted that, but I couldn't." "She continued to come and see me, even though we both knew it was no longer necessary." "We'd go out to dinner and call it a session." "We'd go to the theater and call it a session." "And then, one night, we went out for a ride in the Auburn... and it was a session no longer." "Somebody must have got wind of it, because I found a tape recorder under the seat." "The tape was all mixed up with the coils." "I tore out as much as I could, but I always suspected I didn't get all of it." "It was then I realized how wrong I'd been." "So, a few days later, I told her it had to end." "Well, then she lost control." "She started to smash the fender with a rock." "Ha!" "Well, after she calmed down, I referred her to another psychiatrist, at my expense... had the fender fixed and took off for Europe to let things cool down."

" Hmm." "Back to where it all started." "Now what?" "I don't know." "But if it wasn't for Dr. Harvey and his tape... or Berkholtzer and his bullet... then the only one left is Clarissa and her missing necklace." "Well, it's not in that car, and you can take my word for it." "She told me they searched the car when they stopped him at the gate and they couldn't find it." " But he had it when he left here." " He?" " Langston Drews." " Ah, yes, the mystery man." "Whatever happened to him?" "According to Mildred's research, he died six months ago in prison." "They mailed his papers and effects to Clarissa." " Oh." "A pity he's not here to give us a clue." " Isn't he?" "Maybe he is." "But I'm not planning on cutting a fast tango through your life."

"In the papers that they sent us after Langston died... all he said was that the key to the necklace was in the car." "That was all." "Look,you know that Clarissa and I are not rich." "Now I thought if we could lay our hands on that necklace..." "I could give her everything that I want for her." "All the things that I can't give her." "Without her knowing, I took my savings out... and I hired this private detective, a cheap one." "He took all my money, but all I got in return... was a list of the names of the previous owners." "No key, no necklace, nothing." "So you stole the car and tried to run us both down in the park, is that it?" "That wasn't meant to harm you." "But I didn't have any more money, and I wanted the best... and that seemed like a good way to get you interested." "Then it was you who shot at Berkholtzer."

" You mean he's the Dark Prince?" " Who?" "Well, I did it." "Now before you say anything, I want you to know we need another write-off... and the agency could always use another car... and Dr. Harvey let it go for a song, so I did it." " I bought the Auburn."

" Shut up." "You're supposed to be supportive." "You think you still got a chance with Nadia?" "No." "Her sponsors here saw the thing on the 'Net." " I really don't think they liked it." " How do you know that?" "She's already on a plane back home." "You know, guys?" "Maybe I'm just not good with girls, period." "No, really." "Like I was born without that part of the brain." "I mean, I can't talk to girls." "And when I do talk to them, I screw it up." "Come prom, those excuses aren't going to do you any good." "And one time at band camp... we weren't supposed to have pillow fights... but we had a pillow fight, and it was so much fun." "And this one time, we all lost our music... and we were supposed to play this song, but we didn't know it... so we just made it up and we kept playing and playing... and the conductor didn't know what we were doing, and it was so funny." "So, you're pissed about somethin', huh?" "You know what I do when I'm angry?" "I just play some Bach on my flute." "It's so relaxing." "I learned to do that at band camp." "Hold on." "You have no idea why I'm angry?" "Because we have a test tomorrow?" "Sometimes I get cranky when I know I have a big test to study for." " Yeah, that's pretty much it." " I thought so." " Because this one time at band camp..." " What's your name?" " Michele." " Okay." "Do you want to be my date for the prom?" "Really?" "You seriously want to go with me?" "Yes." "Seriously." "Are we going to Stifler's party after?" "Because that would be so cool." "Sure, whatever you want." "Cool!" "We're gonna have such a good time." "It'll be like this one time at band camp when we all had a campfire..." " How'd you know I was here?" " Stifler told me." " Talked to Stifler?" " Well, I needed to find you." "We're gonna have to work on that song." "Okay." "I'm glad you came by." "So you work nights?" " My dad's the manager." " Really?" "Cool." "Tell him the subs are great." " So you're going to Michigan next year?" " Yeah." "My parents want me to go to Northwestern, but..." "I don't wanna write all those extra essays they make you do." "I mean, how am I supposed to know... what my "most emotionally significant moment" was?" "So when my "U" of"M" acceptance came in December, I just said the hell with it." " Onions?" " What?" "You want onions?" "Oh, no, thank you." "So what are you gonna major in?" "State's got a good business school... and I could probably walk on to the lacrosse team." "Well, you've got it pretty figured out, then, huh?" "I mean, business is okay, and lacrosse is awesome, but... what am I gonna be, a professional lacrosse player?" "I really have no idea." "Thank God." "I thought I was the only one." "Well, you're not." "So we're gonna be close next year." "You mean East Lansing and Ann Arbor?" " What are you talkin' about?" " I can't go to the prom with you." "I'm holding out for someone else." "You gotta be fuckin' kidding me." "I know it's a long shot, but I figure Paul Finch might ask me." "Finch." "Shit-brick." "Oh, gosh." "I forgot." "You look okay." "I mean, the scars healed really well." " Hey, Stifler." " Eat shit." "What was that all about?" "He's still embarrassed because Finch kicked his ass." "Who told you that?" "What do you mean, "no comment"?" " Did you two hook up?" " Are you kidding?" "No." "Then how did all this get started?" "Well, I guess it's all right for me to tell you now." "That reputation of his isn't going anywhere." "Cheese, please." "Finch comes up to me and says, "Jessica..." "I need your help with this, blah, blah, etcetera. "" "So I said, "All right." "Pay me 200 bucks... and I'll tell a couple of girls that you're dynamite in bed. "" "So he did, and I did." " That actually works?" " Well, of course." "Naturally, I embellished a little bit." "Did you hear that Finch had an affair with an older woman?" "No, I didn't hear that one." "That one was my favourite." "Do that cheerleader." " Thank you, baby" " She wants me." "She calls me up..." "How sweet it is to be loved by you" "Oh, my God, you're gay!" "Sing it with me." "You know the words." "No, thanks, man." "You've been singin' that shit all week." "If you try that at M.S.U. this Saturday, I'll kick your ass." "Our last game is this Saturday." "Yeah, well, shit." "I've got this lacrosse game." "It's really important." "It's our last game." "Central almost beat us last time, so this time I really wanna kick their ass." "But it's gonna be cool, because the game's at State... which means afterwards I'll be able to stop by." "So you can't sing at the competition." "Heather, I'm sorry." "I totally blew it." "It's okay." "You should do what makes you happy." "All right." "Listen, thanks for understanding." "So, I guess I'll see you later?" "Hey, Kevin." " You seen Shit-break lately?" " Why?" "What did you do to him?" "Me?" "Nothing." "See, I'm the one whose ass he kicked." "But, I'll tell you one thing, though." "I don't think he's gonna have a problem shitting in school any more." "Slipped a little something into his mochaccino." "Oh, God!" "Jesus." "Right this way, sir." "Oh, God." "It's gonna be fun." "It's just gonna be some crappy band and stupid decorations." "You're just saying that because prom's a week away and you don't have a date." "No, I don't want a date." "Finch is goin' stag and so am I." "God, he's like so refined." "You think that older woman thing is true?" "Yeah, it's true." "It was Stifler's mom." "Joanie, was that you?" " Oh!" " Can't hold it." "Kev?" "I think we've come..." " a really long way since homecoming." " Yeah, we have." "Maybe it's time... we start to express ourselves in new ways." " Yeah." " You wanna do it?" " Yeah." " I love you." "It's your turn." "That's not what I was thinking." "Sex." "It's always about sex." "It's not always about sex." "I just thought it was about sex this time." "Look, Vicky, love is a term that gets thrown around... and people don't mean it." "When I say it, I want it to be more than words." " I want it to be..." " Perfect." "Exactly." " Okay, Albert." "You ready?" " No problemo." "I close my eyes at night" "Come on, Heather." "Work with me here." "Goal, Ostreicher!" " All right, Oz!" " Atta boy, Ozzie!" "Whoo!" "Yeah, baby!" " We're crushing you losers!" " Let's go, fellas!" "Come on!" "Whoo-hoo!" "Bumblebee, bumblebee bumblebee, bumblebee, bumblebee" "Focus on the music." "Think melody." " Let the music be my guide." " That would be a start." "Who's the man?" "Stifler!" "Huddle up, guys!" "Huddle up!" "Huddle up!" "Come on!" "Okay." "All right, all right!" " Good hustle, guys." " Good hustle." "But you can still lose." "You all saw what happened to Oz out there." "I don't want to ever see any of you thinking you're gonna score." "You don't score until you score." " Until you score." " That's right, baby!" "It all boils down to today." "For you seniors, this marks the culmination..." " of the past four years." " Culmination." "I want you to think about what this means to you." "Do you guys wanna look back on your days at East... and know that you used the time you had?" " Hell, yeah!" " You do!" " Good attitude, Ostreicher." " Good luck, fellas." "Christ, I didn't tell ya to leave the game." "I'm sorry, Coach." "You got someplace more important to be, Ostreicher?" "Oz?" "Fuckface?" " Hey, Oz!" " Ozmeister!" " Oh, great." " What about the game?" " I'm not playing." " You're missing the game for us?" "No, I'm missing the game for you." "Does this mean I'm not gonna get to do the duet?" "Albert, you suck." "I don't think he's comin' back." "Close my eyes at night" "Close my eyes" "Wonderin' where would I be without you in my life" "Everything I did was just a bore" "Everywhere I went seems I been there before" "But you brighten up for me all of my days" " With a love so sweet" " In so many ways" "I just wanna stop" "And thank you, baby" " I just wanna stop" " Thank you, baby" " Thank you, baby" "How sweet it is to be loved by you" "Yeah, Oz!" "You fuckin' rule!" " Fuckin' rule!" " Yeah!" "Maybe the words aren't that important." "It's like, I know he really cares about me." "Even if he can't say it, he does." "And yeah, he always talks about sex, but that's okay, 'cause he's a guy." " He's got a dick." "He's a guy." " Right." "Wait." "Is this translation right?" ""Go home, bird teacher." "I've had enough. "" "I don't know." "I got it from Kevin." " So, does it hurt?" " What?" "You know... sex." "Does it hurt?" "Yeah." "I mean, the first time you do it, you know, it hurts." "But then you, you do it again and again and again..." "It just starts to feel good." "Really good." "Okay, so say I don't do it." "And then I go off to college." "I might end up doing it with some random guy..." " who totally turns out to be a jerk." " This is true." "And I'll wish I would've done it with Kevin." "So go do it with Kevin." " You think?" " Yeah." "You're..." "You're ready." "You're woman." "Look at you." "You're ready for sex." " You're right." " I know." "I'm gonna do it." "I'm gonna have sex." "And it's gonna be right, and it's gonna be just perfect." " Perfect sex." " Thanks, Jessica." "Please." " I wanna have sex." " Now?" "Prom." "You must be excited about the big night tonight." "Thrilled." "Who's the lucky girl?" "Michele." " Michele." " Yeah." " She must be very special." " Oh, she's special, all right." "I'm sure she is special if you picked her out of the whole bunch." "Jim, I'm just gonna say one thing before you leave tonight." "I want you to be very, very careful... when you're putting on... the corsage." " Okay, Dad." " Promise me." "I promise." "Midnight at the oasis" "Send your camel to bed" "Shadows painting our faces" "Traces" "Of romance in our heads" "Heaven's holding a half-moon" "Shining just for us" "Let's slip off to a sand dune" "Real soon" "And kick up a little dust" "Come on Cactus is our friend" "He'll point out the way" "You know, at band camp we have dances like this... only they're way funner." "Till the evenin'ends" "All right, status check." "Where do you guys stand?" "Finch, we know where you are, but can't really use that as an excuse." "My date's a flute-toting band dork." "Does that answer your question?" "Oz, is this vocal-jazz shit gonna pay off or what?" "Kevin, what's with the attitude?" "Attitude?" "Me?" "I think you guys should be a little more enthusiastic." "This is the night we've been waiting for." "We're in this together." "You guys can't back out." "Kev, you don't need us to get laid." "Are you afraid or something?" "No." "Come on."

"Why don't you go grab a glass from the bar?" "I think I should." "Allow me." "You know it's a bitchin' party." "The Stif-man always comes through in the clutch."

"And he was such a dork." "Everyone laughed at me... but I didn't care because it was so funny." "I get it." "And this one time at band camp, I stuck a flute in my pussy." "Excuse me?" "What?"

"No." "Don't say that." "I mean, we could make it work." " It'll be perfect." " No, Kevin." "But..." "That's what I've been realizing, is that nothing's perfect." "And you can't plan everything." "Well, I guess you will be pretty far away." "And we'll be on our own, meeting new people." "Last night, though." "I wasn't lying." "I know." "She's gone." "Wha..." "Oh, my God." "She used me." "I was used." "I was used." "Cool!" "What's this door locked..." "Mom, where's..." " Mom?" "Shit-brick?" " Hey, Stifler." "I just gotta say that women... like a fine wine, only get better with age."

"Look, these people need to believe this is an actual legitimate sleep study." "I can't have these goons wandering the hallways." "I grabbed the doctor's journal before it fell into the wrong hands." " You should be thanking me." " Good for you." "Just try not to scare anyone, okay?" "And take that to my office." "Sure." "Hey." "Where've you been?" "Out for a walk." "Yeah?" " For an hour?"

"Thanks." "Think sleepy thoughts." "(beeping)" "(pills clatter)" "I recalibrated the machine in Ms. Plimpton's room." "Great." "Then we'll start with her." "We have a new subject?" "We do." "A walk-in." "Didn't even have to recruit him." "Amazing." "Is the new patient..." "Is it a boy?" "About 11 years old?" "No." "Why?" "Oh." "Nothing." "Fine." "Let's begin." "(rapid, high-pitched beeping)" "Amelia, do you ever have trouble sleeping?" "Well, I have these dreams, and I wake up and I can't go back to sleep." "But I'm fine." "Jake seems to sleep all right." "He's always out when I check on him." "Yeah." "If something's ever wrong with him that I don't understand you have to tell me, okay?" "Okay." "Jake has all this information, like, coming at him all the time." "H-He sometimes doesn't know how to turn it off." "But he hears you coming down the hall, so he just pretends like he's asleep." "He doesn't want to make you worry." "All I ever do is worry." "(phone rings)" "Trevor, what's happening?" "I have to move fast." "It won't be long before they realize I'm gone."

"You should be out cold." "Trevor?" "Trevor..." "(beep)" "(quietly):" "Damn it." "I need to get you guys out of here." "No, you have to go in there."

"My screwup." "I'll take care of it." " What's going on?" " Shh, shh." "You're Calvin Norburg." "Yeah, I know." "What are you doing?" "I'm creating a feedback loop, so they'll get a continuous stream of data." "If the system doesn't receive an input for more than three minutes, an alarm sounds." "Probably should have factored that into your plan." "There's no plan." "I'm a patient here." " I have insomnia." " Now, look, I'm trying to help you, okay?" "I know you're working with Martin." "Jake is the only one who could've sailed through the test like that." " Where are they?" " Look," "I don't know what your agenda is here..."

"(Policeman) Give me your hand!" "Give me your hand!" "(Screams)" "(Gentle classical)" "Ouch!" "Ouch!" " I thought you said no more pains." " It's this corset, it binds." "No three-way stretch?" "How very un-chic." "Well, you know those police department doctors, no sense of style." " Anyway, tomorrow will be the day." " Why, what's tomorrow?" "Tomorrow?" "The corset comes off tomorrow." "I'll be able to scratch myself, I'll throw this miserable thing out the window." "Be a free... free man." "Midge, do you suppose many men wear corsets?" " Mm, more than you think." " Really?" "You know that from personal experience?" "Please." "What happens after tomorrow?" " What do you mean?" " Well, what are you going to do?" " Once you quit the police force." " You sound so disapproving." "No, it's your life." "But you were the bright young lawyer that decided he was going to be chief of police someday." " I had to quit." " Why?" "Because of this fear of heights I have, this acrophobia." "I wake up at nights seeing that man fall from the roof and I try to reach out and..." " It wasn't your fault." " That's what everybody tells me." " Johnnie, the doctors explained..." " I know, I know." "I have acrophobia which gives me vertigo, and I get dizzy." "Boy... what a moment to find out I had it." "Well, there's no losing it." "There's no one to blame, so why quit?" "You mean sit behind a desk?" "Chairborne." " Where you belong." " What about my acrophobia?" "What...?" "Suppose I'm sitting in this chair behind the desk and a pencil falls to the floor, I reach down to pick it up," " bingo, my acrophobia's back." " Oh, Johnnie-o." "Well, what'll you do?" "I'm not going to do anything for a while." "I'm a man of independent means, as the saying goes." " Fairly independent." " Mm." " Why don't you go away for a while?" " You mean to forget?" "Oh, Midge, don't be so motherly." "I'm not going to crack up." "Have you had any dizzy spells this week?" "I'm having one right now." "The music, don't you think it's sort of..." "Oh." "What's this doohickey?" "It's a brassiere." "You know about those things, you're a big boy now." "I've never run across one like that." "It's brand-new." "Revolutionary uplift." "No shoulder straps, no back straps but it does everything a brassiere should do." "It works like a cantilever bridge." "It does?" "Aircraft engineer down the peninsula designed it, worked it out in his spare time." "Kind of a hobby." "Oh." "A do-it-yourself type thing." "How's your love life, Midge?" "That's following a train of thought." "Well..." "Normal." "Aren't you ever gonna get married?" "You know there's only one man for me." "You mean me." "We were engaged once, weren't we?" " Three whole weeks." " Good old college days." "You were the one that called off the engagement." "I'm still available." "Available Ferguson." "Do you remember a fellow in college called Gavin Elster?" " Gavin Elster?" " Yes, funny name." "You'd think I would." "No." "I had a call from Gavin today." "Funny, we lost touch during the war." "Somebody said he went east." "I guess he's back." "It's a Mission number." " That's skid row, isn't it?" " Could be." "He's probably on the bum and wants the price of a drink." "I'll buy him a couple of drinks and tell him my troubles." "But not tonight, how about we go out for a beer?" " Sorry, old man, work." " I think I'll go home." "Midge, what did you mean, "there's no losing it"?" " What?" " The, er, the acrophobia." "I asked my doctor, he said only another emotional shock could do it, and probably wouldn't." "Don't dive off another rooftop to find out." "I think I can lick it." " How?" " I have a theory." "I think if I can get used to heights, just a little bit at a time." "Just a little like that." "Progressively." "I'll show you what I mean." "Here." "I'll show you what I mean." " We'll start with this." " That?" "You want me to start with the Golden Gate Bridge?" "Watch this." "Here we go." "There." "There." "Now, I look up, I look down." "I look up..." " You're kidding." "Wait a minute." " There's nothing to it!" " Here." " Oh, that's a girl." "We'll use that." "Put it right there." "All right." "Here's the first step." "There." "OK, now step number two." "All right, step number two coming up." "There we are." "See, I look up, I look down." "I look up..." "I'm going to buy myself a tall stepladder." " Take it easy." " All right, here we go." "No problem." "This is a cinch." "I look up, I look down." "I look up, I look down." "Oh, Johnnie, Johnnie." "How did you get in the shipbuilding business, Gavin?" "I married into it." " Very interesting business." " To be honest, I find it dull." "You don't have to do it for a living." "No, but one assumes responsibilities." "My wife's family has all gone, someone has to look after her interests." "Her father's partner runs the company yard in the east" " Baltimore." "So I decided, as long as I had to work at it, I'd come back here." " I've always liked it here." " How long have you been back?" " Almost a year." " You like it, huh?" "Well, San Francisco's changed." "The things that spell San Francisco to me are disappearing fast." " Like all these?" " I should like to have lived here then." "Colour, excitement, power, freedom." " Er, shouldn't you be sitting down?" " No, I'm all right." "I was sorry to read about that thing in the paper." "And you've quit the force, is it a permanent physical disability?" "No." "No, it just means I can't climb steep stairs or go to high places, like the bar at the Top of the Mark." "But there are street-level bars in this town." "Would you like a drink now?" "No, I don't think so, it's a little early in the day for me." "Well, I guess that just about covers everything." "I never married, I don't see much of the old college gang," "I'm a retired detective and you're in the shipbuilding business." "What's on your mind, Gavin?" "I asked you here, Scottie, knowing you'd quit detective work, but I wondered whether you'd go back on the job as a special favour to me." "I want you to follow my wife." "No, it's not that." " We're very happily married." " Well, then..." " I'm afraid some harm may come to her." " From whom?" "Someone dead." "Scottie, do you believe that someone out of the past, someone dead, can enter and take possession of a living being?" "No." "If I told you I believed this has happened to my wife, what would you say?" "I'd say take her to the nearest psychiatrist or psychologist or neurologist or maybe just the plain family doctor." "I'd have him check on you too." "Then you're of no use to me, I'm sorry I wasted your time." "Thanks for coming in, Scottie." "OK." "I, er..." "I didn't mean to be that rough." "It sounds idiotic, I know." "You're still the hard-headed Scot, aren't you?" "Always were." " You think I'm making it up?" " No." "I'm not making it up, I wouldn't know how." "She'll be talking to me about something and suddenly the words fade into silence, a cloud comes into her eyes and they go blank." "She's somewhere else, away from me, someone I don't know." "I call to her, she doesn't even hear me." "Then, with a long sigh, she's back." "Looks at me brightly." "Doesn't even know she's been away, can't tell me where or when." "Well... how often does this happen?" "More and more in the past few weeks." "And she wanders." "God knows where she wanders." "I followed her one day, watched her coming out of the apartment." "Someone I didn't know, she even walked a different way." "Got into her car and drove out to Golden Gate Park, five miles." "Sat by the lake, staring across the water at the pillars on the far shore, you know, the Portals of the Past." "Sat there a long time without moving." "I had to leave, get back to the office." "When I got home, I asked her what she'd done all day." "She said she'd driven to Golden Gate Park and sat by the lake, that's all." "Well?" "The speedometer on her car showed she'd driven 94 miles." "Where did she go?" "I've got to know where she goes and what she does, before I involve doctors." " Have you talked to doctors?" " Yes, but carefully." "I want to know more before committing her to that kind of care." "OK, I'll get a firm of private eyes to follow her for you." " They're dependable." " I want you." "Look, this isn't my line." "Scottie, I need a friend, someone I can trust." "I'm in a panic." "I'm supposed to be retired, I don't want to get mixed up in this." "We're going to an opening at the opera tonight, we're dining at Ernie's first." "You can see her there." "Ernie's." "(Indistinct chatter)" "(Inaudible)" "(Church organ)" "(Bell tolls)" "(Mouths)" "Will you tell me something?" "That lady, who's the woman in the painting she's looking at?" "That's Carlotta." "You'll find it in the catalogue." "Portrait Of Carlotta." " May I have this?" " Yes." "Thank you." "(Starts engine)" "(Woman) Yes?" "Is there something I can do for you?" " You run this hotel?" " Oh, yes." "Who has the room on the second floor in the corner?" "That corner." "Oh, we couldn't give out information of that sort." "Our clients are entitled their privacy." "And I do believe it's against the law." "Of course, I don't think any of them would mind really but still, I..." "Oh, dear." "Has she done something wrong?" "Please answer my question." " I can't imagine that sweet girl..." " What's her name?" "Valdes." "Miss Valdes." "Spanish, you know." " Carlotta Valdes?" " That's it." "Sweet name, isn't it?" "Foreign but sweet." " How long has she had the room?" " It must be two weeks." "Her rent's due tomorrow." " Does she sleep here ever?" " No." "She just comes to sit, two or three times a week." "I don't ask questions, as long as they're well behaved." " I must say..." " Don't tell her I've been here." "But she hasn't been here today." "I saw her come in five minutes ago." "No, she hasn't been here at all." "I would've seen her - I've been here all the time, putting olive oil on my rubber plant leaves." "There." "There, you see." "Her key is on the rack." "Would you please go up and look?" " To her room?" " That's right." "Of course, if you ask." " But it does seem silly." " Thank you." "Oh, Mr Detective?" "Would you like to come and look?" " Her car's gone." " What car?" "Midge... who do you know that's an authority on San Francisco history?" "That's the kind of greeting a girl likes." "Not, "Hello, you look wonderful," just, "Who do you know that's an authority..."" " Want a drink?" " No, thanks." "Well, who do you?" "You know everybody." " Professor Saunders, over in Berkeley." " I don't mean that kind of history." "I mean the small stuff, people you never heard of." "Oh." "You mean the Gay Old Bohemian Days of Gay Old San Francisco." "Juicy stories like who shot who in the Embarcadero in August 1879?" " That's right." " Pop Leibel." " Who?" " Pop Leibel." "He owns the Argosy Book Shop." "What do you want to know?" "Who shot who in the Embarcadero in August 1879." "Wait a minute, you're not a detective any more, what's going on?" " You know him well?" " Who?" " Pop Leibel." " Oh, sure." "Let's go." "I want you to introduce me." "Get your hat." "I don't need a hat." "Hey, Johnnie, what's it all about?" "Hey!" "Wait a minute!" "Oh, yes." "I remember." "Carlotta." "The beautiful Carlotta." "The sad Carlotta." "What does an old house on Eddy and Gough Street have to do with her?" "It was hers." "It was built for her many years ago." " By whom?" " By, er..." "By, er..." "Hm." "No." "The name I do not remember." "A rich man, a powerful man." "Cigarette?" " No, thank you." " Cigarette, miss?" "No, thank you." "It is not an unusual story." "She came from somewhere small to the south of the city." "Some say from a mission settlement." "Young, yes." "Very young." "She was found dancing and singing in cabaret by that man." "And he took her and built for her the great house in the Western Addition." "And, er..." "There was a..." "There was a child." "Yes, that's it, a child." "A child." "I cannot tell you exactly how much time passed or how much happiness there was." "But, then - he threw her away." "He had no other children, his wife had no children." "So, he kept the child and threw her away." "You know, a man could do that in those days." "They had the power and the freedom." "And she became the sad Carlotta, alone in the great house, walking the streets alone, her clothes becoming old and patched and dirty." "And the mad Carlotta, stopping people in the streets to ask," ""Where is my child?" ""Have you seen my child?"" " Poor thing." " And she died?" " She died." " How?" "By her own hand." "Hm!" "There are many such stories." " Thank you, Mr Leibel." " You are welcome." " I appreciate it." " You're welcome." "Bye." "Wait a minute." "Goodbye, Pop, thanks a lot." " Now then, pay me." " For what?" " For bringing you here." "Come on, tell." " There's nothing to tell." "Tell or you'll be back in that corset." "Come on, I'll take you home." " Here you are." " You haven't told me everything." " I've told you enough." " Who's the guy, who's the wife?" " Out!" "I've got things to do." " I know..." " the one that phoned, Elster." " Out, please?" "The idea is that the beautiful Carlotta has come back from the dead and taken possession of Elster's wife." "Johnnie, really, come on!" "I'm not telling you what I think but what he thinks." " What do you think?" " Well, I..." " Is she pretty?" " Carlotta?" "No, not Carlotta." "Elster's wife." "Yes, I guess you'd consider that she would..." "You could..." "I think I'll go take a look at that portrait." "Goodbye." " Midge..." " Goodbye!" "Midge!" "You..." "You've done well." "You're good at your job." "That's Carlotta Valdes." "There were things you didn't tell me." " I didn't know where she'd lead you." " You knew about this." "You notice the way she does her hair?" "There's something else - my wife Madeleine has several pieces of jewellery that belonged to Carlotta." "She inherited them." "Never wore them, they were too old-fashioned." "Until now." "Now, when she's alone, she takes them out and looks at them." "Handles them, gently, curiously." "Puts them on and stares at herself in the mirror." "Then goes into that other world, is someone else again." "Carlotta Valdes was what, your wife's... grandmother?" "Great-grandmother." "The child who was taken from her, whose loss drove Carlotta mad and to her death, was Madeleine's grandmother." "And the McKittrick Hotel is the old Valdes home." "I think that explains it." "Anyone could become obsessed with the past with a background like that." "She never heard of Carlotta Valdes." "She knows nothing of a grave at the Mission Dolores, or that old house on Eddy Street, the portrait at the Palace of the Legion of...?" " Nothing." " When she goes to these places..." "She's no longer my wife." "How do you know all these things she doesn't?" "Her mother told me most of them before she died." "I dug out the rest here." " Why wouldn't she tell her daughter?" " Natural fear." "Her grandmother went insane and took her own life." "Her blood is in Madeleine." "Boy, I need this." "(Ship's horn blows in distance)" "Madeleine." "Madeleine?" "(Muttering) Where is my child..." "(Phone)" "Yes?" "No, it's all right." "I'll call you back." "Yes." "Yes." "Are you all right?" "Oh." "Oh, you'll, er..." "You'll want this." "You better come over here by the fire where it's warm." "What am I doing here?" "What happened?" "Well, you... fell into San Francisco Bay." "I had to dry your hair as best I could." "Your things are in the kitchen, they'll be dry in a few minutes." "Come on over by the fire." "Here, I'll give you some cushions." "There you are." "Would you like to have some coffee?" "You'd better have some." "Or perhaps you'd like a drink?" "I fell into the Bay and you fished me out?" "That's right." " Thank you." " You don't remember?" "No, I..." "Do you remember where you were?" "Yes." "Yes, of course I remember that." "Then I must have had a dizzy spell and fainted." "Where were you?" "At Old Fort Point, out at the Presidio." "Of course I remember." "I often go there." "Why?" "Why do you go there?" "Because I love it so." "It's beautiful there, especially at sunset." " Thank you for the fire." " Where were you before?" " When?" " This afternoon, I mean." " Wandering about." " I know, but where were you just before?" "Downtown, shopping." "Here, you better have some coffee." "I think it's still warm." "You're terribly direct in your questions." "I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to be rude." "You're not." "You're merely direct." "What were you doing at Old Fort Point?" "Oh, just wandering about." " You like it too?" " Yes." "Where had you been just before?" "I'd been to the Palace of the Legion of Honor, the art gallery." "Oh, yes." "That's a lovely spot, isn't it?" "I've never been inside but it looks so lovely driving past." "It's lucky for me you were wandering about." "Thank you." " I've been a terrible bother to you." " No, you haven't." "Oh..." "When you, um..." "There were some pins in my hair?" "Oh, the pins?" "Yeah, right in here, I'll get 'em for you." "And my purse, please." " Here you are." " Thank you." " You shouldn't have brought me here." " I didn't know where you lived." "You could've looked in my car." "But then you didn't know my car, did you?" "I knew which one it was - it's outside now - but I didn't think you wanted to be taken home in that way." "You're right." "I'm glad you didn't take me home," "I wouldn't have known you." "Thank you." "But we don't know each other." "My name is Madeleine Elster." " My name is John Ferguson." " Good strong name." " Your friends call you John or Jack?" " John, mostly." "Old friends call me John, acquaintances call me Scottie." " I shall call you Mr Ferguson." " Oh, gee whizz, I wouldn't like that." "After this afternoon, I should think you'd call me Scottie, maybe even John." "Well, I prefer John." "There, that's done." "And what do you do, John?" " Wander about." " That's a good occupation." "And you live here, alone?" " One shouldn't live alone." " Some people prefer it." "No, it's wrong." "I'm married, you know." "Will you tell me something?" "Has this ever happened to you before?" " What?" " Falling into San Francisco Bay?" "Oh." "No, it's never happened before." "I've fallen into lakes out of rowboats as a little girl." "I fell into the river once, trying to leap from one stone to another." "But I've never fallen into San Francisco Bay." " Have you ever before?" " No, it's the first time for me too." " Here, I'll get you some more coffee." " (Phone)" " Hello?" " (Gavin) 'Scottie, she's not home yet.'" "No, she's all right." "She's here, I'll bring her home soon." " 'What happened?" "'" " She went into the Bay." "Hello?" " 'Did she hurt herself?" "'" " No, she'll be in fine shape." "But she doesn't know - do you understand that?" " she doesn't know what happened." " 'Scottie, Madeleine is 26.' - (Door opens)" "'Carlotta Valdes committed suicide when she was 26.'" " (Door closes)" " Just hold on a minute, Gavin." "Well now, Johnnie-o, was it a ghost?" "Was it fun?" "Is that for me?" " Yes, hello." " Hello." "I worried about you last night, you shouldn't have run off that way." "I suddenly felt such a fool." "I wanted to drive you home." " Are you all right?" " Yes, I'm fine." "No aftereffects." " The water was cold, wasn't it?" " It sure was." "What a terrible thing for me to do." "You were so kind." "It's a formal thank you note, and a big apology." " You've nothing to apologise for." " Yes, I do." "It must've been so embarrassing for you." "Not at all, I enjoyed... talking to you." "Well, I enjoyed talking to you." "Well, I'll get my mail." " Would you like a cup of coffee?" " No, thank you." "I couldn't mail it, I didn't know your address." "But I had a landmark" " Coit Tower." "It led me straight to you." "First time I've been grateful for Coit Tower." " I hope we will too." " What?" " Meet again sometime." " We have." "Goodbye." " Where are you going?" " Oh, I don't know." " Shopping?" " No." "Well, anywhere in particular?" "No, I just thought I'd wander." "Oh..." "That's what I was going to do." "Oh, yes, that's right." "It's your occupation, isn't it?" "Don't you think it's a waste for us..." " To wander separately?" " Uh-huh." "Only one is a wanderer, two together are always going somewhere." "No, I don't think that's necessarily true." "You've left your door open." "Be right back." "(Madeleine) How old?" "(Scottie) Oh, some 2,000 years or more." " The oldest living things." " Yes." " You've never been here before?" " No." "What are you thinking?" "Of all the people who've been born and have died when the trees went on living." "Their true name is Sequoia sempervirens, always green, ever-living." " I don't like them." " Why?" "Knowing I have to die..." "Here's a cross section of one of the old trees that's been cut down." "Somewhere in here I was born, and there I died." "It was only a moment for you, you took no notice." "Madeleine." "Madeleine." "Madeleine, where are you now?" " Here with you." " Where?" " Tall trees..." " Have you been here before?" " Yes." " When?" "When were you born?" " Long ago." " Where?" "When?" " Tell me." "Madeleine, tell me." " No." "Where do you go, what takes you away?" "You didn't know where you were when you jumped in the Bay." "I didn't jump, I fell - you told me." " Why did you jump?" " I can't tell you." " What told you to jump?" " No, please..." "What?" "What?" "Please don't ask me." "Please don't ask me!" "Take me away from here." "Shall I take you home?" "Somewhere in the light." "Promise me something, promise you won't ask me again." "Please." "Why did you run?" "I'm responsible for you now." "The Chinese say that once you've saved a person's life you're responsible for it forever, so I'm committed." "I have to know." "There's so little that I know." "It's as though I were walking down a long corridor that... that once was mirrored." "Fragments of that mirror still hang there and when I come to the end of the corridor, there's nothing but darkness." "And I know that when I walk into the darkness... that I'll die." "But I've never come to the end, I've always come back before then." " Except once." " Yesterday?" "And you didn't know what happened until you found yourself with me." "You didn't know where you were." "But the fragments of the mirror, you remember those?" " Vaguely." " What do you remember?" "There's a room... and I sit there alone, always alone." " What else?" " A grave." " Where?" " I don't know." "It's an open grave and I..." "I stand by the gravestone looking down into it." "It's my grave." " How do you know?" " I know." "Is there a name on the gravestone?" "No." "No, it's new and... clean and waiting." "What else?" "This part is dream, I think." "There..." "There's a tower and a bell, and a garden below." "It seems to be in Spain, a village in Spain." "It clicks off and it's gone." "Well... a portrait?" " Do you see a portrait?" " No." "If I could just find the key, the beginning, and put it together." "And so explain it away?" "There is a way to explain it, you see." "If I'm mad, then that would explain it, wouldn't it?" "Madeleine!" "Oh, Scottie!" "I'm not mad!" "I'm not mad!" "I don't want to die!" "There's someone within me and she says I must die." " Scottie, don't let me go." " I'm here." " I've got you." " I'm so afraid." " Don't leave me, stay with me." " All the time." "(Chuckling)" "(Door opening)" " Hi, Johnnie." " Hi." " Did you get my message?" " I did, indeed." " I'll get you a drink." " OK." "Since when do you go around slipping notes under men's doors?" "Since I can't get them on the phone." "For a man with nothing to do, you're certainly busy." " Where do you go these days?" " Just wandering." " Where?" " Round about." "What was this... what was this desperate urge to see me?" "All I said in my note was, "Where are you?"" "That doesn't sound very desperate." "I detected a little undercurrent." "Well, I thought if I gave you a drink and fed you some dinner, you'd take me to a movie." "That's fair enough." " What will we talk about at dinner?" " This and that." " What I've been doing?" " If you want to." "Naturally, we won't talk about anything you don't want to." "Naturally." "What have you been doing?" "Wandering." "What have you been doing?" "Thank you, dear." "I've been having a wonderful time." "I've gone back to my first love, painting." "Good, I said you were wasting your time in the underwear department." "That's a living but I'm really excited about this." "What is it?" "Still life?" "No, not exactly." " You want to see?" " Mm." "Yeah." "As a matter of fact, I thought I might give it to you." "Johnnie..." "It's not funny, Midge." " Johnnie?" " No." " Johnnie, I just thought..." " Uh-uh." "Oh, er..." "Let's make that movie some other night." "Johnnie?" "Oh, Marjorie Wood, you fool!" "Idiot!" "Stupid!" "Stupid!" "(Buzzer)" "(Buzzer continues)" " Madeleine." "What's the matter?" " I should've phoned you but..." " I wanted to be with you." " Why, what's happened?" "I had the dream." "The dream came back again." "You're going to be all right." "You'll be all right." "Here, I'll get you some brandy." "Drink this down, just like medicine." " (Coughs)" " There, now." "It was a dream, you're awake." "You're all right now." "Now, can you tell me?" "It was the tower again and the bell and the old Spanish village." " Yes?" " So very clear for the first time." "All of it." "Tell me." "It was a village square, a green with trees and an old whitewashed Spanish church with a cloister." "Across the green was a big, grey wooden house with a porch, shutters and a balcony." "Next to it was a livery stable, with old carriages inside." "Go on." "At the end of the green was a stone house with a pepper tree at the corner..." "And a wooden hotel from the old California days?" "And a saloon?" "Dark, low ceilings with hanging oil lamps?" "Yes." "It's all there." "It's no dream." "You've been there before, you've seen it." " No, never!" " 100 miles south of San Francisco, there's an old Spanish mission, San Juan Bautista." "It's been preserved as it was 100 years ago as a museum." "Now think hard, darling." "Think hard." "You've been there, you've seen it." "No, I've never been there." "What is it, Scottie?" "Go on about your dream." "What was it that frightened you?" "I stood alone on the green searching for something." "Then I started to walk to the church... then the darkness closed in and I was alone in the dark." "Being pulled into the darkness." "I've got to wake up." "You're going to be all right now, Madeleine." "You've given me something to work on now." "I'll take you to that mission and you'll remember when you saw it before." "It'll finish your dream, destroy it, I promise you." "All right?" "Come on, I'll take you home." "I'll be all right." "You'll come back here around noon." "Madeleine?" "Where are you now?" " Here with you." " And it's all real!" "Not merely as it was 100 years ago, or a year ago, or six months ago, or whenever it was you were here to see it." "Think of when you were here." "There were not so many carriages then." "There were horses in the stalls." "A bay, two black and a grey." "It was our favourite place." "But we were forbidden to play here," "Sister Teresa would scold us." "Look at this." "Here's your grey horse." "Have a little trouble getting in and out of the stall but even so." "You see, there's an answer for everything." "Madeleine... try." "Try for me." " I love you, Madeleine." " I love you too." " Too late..." " No, we're together." "It's too late." "There's something I must do." "No, there's nothing you must do." "There's nothing you must do." "No one possesses you, you're safe with me." "No, it's too late." "Look, it's not fair, it shouldn't have happened this way." "It had to happen, we're in love." " Let me go!" " Listen to me!" "Listen to me!" " Do you believe I love you?" " Yes." "And if you lose me, you'll know I loved you and I wanted to go on loving you." "I won't lose you." " Let me go into the church." "Alone." " But why?" "Madeleine!" "Madeleine!" "Madeleine!" "(Madeleine screams)" "(Man) Mr Elster, suspecting that all was not well with his wife's mental state, took the preliminary precaution of having her watched by Mr Ferguson, lest any harm befall her." "As you have heard, Mr Elster was prepared to take his wife to an institution where her mental health would have been in the hands of specialists." "Mr Ferguson, being an ex-detective, would have seemed the proper choice as watchdog and protector." "As you have learned, it was an unfortunate choice." "However, you'll agree no blame can be attached to the husband." "His delay in putting his wife under medical care was due to the need for information as to her behaviour, which he expected from Mr Ferguson." "He had taken every precaution to protect his wife, he could not have known that Mr Ferguson's fear of heights would make him powerless when he was most needed." "As to Mr Ferguson." "You have heard his former superior," "Detective Captain Hansen from that great city to the north, testify as to his character and ability - he was most enthusiastic." "The fact that once before, under similar circumstances," "Mr Ferguson allowed a police colleague to fall to his death," "Captain Hansen dismissed as an unfortunate incident." "Mr Ferguson is to be congratulated upon having saved the woman's life, when, in a previous fit of aberration, she threw herself into the Bay." "It is a pity that, knowing her suicidal tendencies, he did not make a greater effort the second time." "But we are not here to pass judgment on Mr Ferguson's lack of initiative." "He did nothing." "The law has little to say on things left undone." "Nor does his strange behaviour after he saw the body fall have any bearing on your verdict." "He did not remain at the scene of the death - he left." "He claims he suffered a blackout and knew nothing more until he found himself back in his apartment several hours later." "You may accept that, or not." "Or you may believe that having once again allowed someone to die, he could not face the tragic result of his own weakness, and ran away." "That has nothing to do with your verdict." "It is a matter between him and his own conscience." "Now, from the state of mind of Madeleine Elster prior to her death, from the manner of her death, and from the postmortem showing the cause of her death, you should have no difficulty in reaching your verdict, gentlemen." "You may retire if you wish." " We've reached a verdict." " Thank you." "The jury finds that Madeleine Elster committed suicide while of unsound mind." "The verdict will be so recorded." "Dismissed." " Let's go." " Do you mind if I speak with him?" " No, go ahead." " Scottie." "Sorry, Scottie, that was rough." "He had no right to speak to you like that." "It was my responsibility, I... shouldn't have got you involved." "There's nothing you have to say to me." "I'm getting out, Scottie, for good." "I can't stay here." "I'm going to wind up her affairs, and mine, and get away as far as I can." "Europe, perhaps." "I probably never will come back." "Goodbye, Scottie." "If there's anything I can do for you before I go." "There's no way for them to understand." "You and I know who killed Madeleine." "Come on, Scottie, let's get out of here." "(Gentle classical)" "It's Mozart." "Wolfgang Amadeus." "I had a long talk with that lady in musical therapy." "She says that Mozart's the boy for you." "The broom that sweeps the cobwebs away." "Well, it's what the lady said." "It's wonderful how they have it all taped now." "They have music for dipsomaniacs and music for melancholiacs and music for hypochondriacs." "I wonder what would happen if somebody got their files mixed up?" "I brought a lot of other things, you can see what you like." "It shuts off automatically." "Oh, Johnnie." "Johnnie, please try." "Try, Johnnie." "You're not lost." "Mother's here." "(Door opens)" "(Midge) Time?" "OK." "(Door closes)" "I'll be in again, Johnnie." "Want me to shut that off?" "Oh, Johnn-o... you don't even know I'm here, do you?" "But I'm here." "Nurse, could I see the doctor for a moment?" "Doctor, Miss Wood." "Won't you go in, please?" "Yes, Miss Wood?" "Doctor, how long is it going to take you to pull him out of this?" "It's hard to say." "At least six months, perhaps a year." " It really could depend on him." " He won't talk." "No." "He's suffering from acute melancholia, together with a guilt complex." "He blames himself for the woman's death... we know little of what went on before." "I can give you one thing." "He was in love with her." "Oh, that does complicate the problem." "I can give you another complication - he still is." "You want to know something, Doctor?" "I don't think Mozart's gonna help at all." " Where did you get this car?" " I beg your pardon?" "I bought it from a man who used to live here." "Mr Gavin Elster." "I bought it from him when he moved away." "Oh, you knew him?" "And his wife?" "The poor thing" " I didn't know her." "Is it true that she really..." "I'm..." "I'm sorry." " Good evening." " Good evening." "Give me a Scotch and soda." "(Chattering)" " Well?" "What is it?" " Could I ask you some questions?" " What for?" "Who are you?" " My name's John Ferguson." " Is this some kind of Gallup poll?" " Oh, no." " Just a couple of things..." " You live here?" " I happened to see you as you came in." " I thought so, a pick-up." "You've got a nerve!" "Following me right up to my room." " Now, you beat it!" " Please, I just want to talk to you." " Listen, I'm gonna yell in a minute." " I'm not going to hurt you." "Please." "Just let me talk to you." " What about?" " You." " Why?" " Because you remind me of somebody." "I heard that one before too." "I remind you of someone you were in love with but she ditched you for another guy and you've been carrying a torch ever since." "Then you saw me and something clicked." " You're not far wrong." " It's not gonna work, so you better go." "Please, let me come in." "You can leave the door open, I just want to talk to you." "Please." "Well, I warn you" " I can yell awful loud." "You won't have to." "Well..." "You don't look very much like Jack the Ripper." " What do you want to know?" " Your name." " Judy Barton." " And who you are." " I work at Magnin's." " How come you're living here?" " It's a place to live, that's all." " But you've not been here long?" " Yeah, about three years." " And before?" "Salina, Kansas." "What is this?" "What do you want?" " I just want to know who you are." " Well, I told you." "My name is Judy Barton, I come from Salina, Kansas," "I work at Magnin's and I live here." "My gosh, do I have to prove it?" "All right, mister - my Kansas driver's licence." "Judy Barton, number Z296794." "425 Maple Avenue, Salina, Kansas." "See the address on this one?" "It's this place, right here." "A California licence, issued May 25th, 1954." "You wanna check my thumbprints?" "Are you satisfied?" "And whether you're satisfied or not, you can just beat it." "Gee, you have got it bad, haven't you?" "Do I really look like her?" "She's..." "She's dead, isn't she?" "I'm sorry." "And I'm sorry I yelled at you." "That's me with my mother." "And that's my father." "He's dead." "My mother married again but I didn't like the guy, so I decided I'd see what it's like in sunny California." "I've been here three years." "Honest." " Will you have dinner with me?" " Why?" " I feel I owe you something after..." " You don't owe me." " Then, will you, for me?" " Dinner and what else?" "Just dinner." "Because I remind you of her?" "Because I'd like to have dinner with you." "Well..." "I've been on blind dates before." "Matter of fact, I've been picked up before." " OK." " I'll get my car." "Be back in half an hour." "Oh, no, you better give me time to change." "An hour?" " Uh-huh." " OK." "'Dearest Scottie... 'and so you've found me." "'This is the moment that I dreaded and hoped for, 'wondering what I would say and do if I ever saw you again." "'I wanted so to see you again just once." "'Now I'll go and you can give up your search." "'I want you to have peace of mind, you've nothing to blame yourself for." "'I was the tool, and you were the victim 'of Gavin Elster's plan to murder his wife." "'He chose me to play the part because I looked like her." "'Lt was quite safe because she lived in the country and rarely came to town." "'Chose you to be the witness to a suicide." "'The Carlotta story was part real, part invented, 'to make you testify that Madeleine wanted to kill herself." "'He knew of your illness, he knew you'd never make it up the tower." "'He planned it so well, he made no mistakes." "'I made the mistake" " I fell in love." "'That wasn't part of the plan." "'I'm still in love with you and I want you so to love me." "'Lf I had the nerve, I'd stay and lie, 'hoping I could make you love me again, as I am, for myself, 'and so forget the other, forget the past." "'But I don't know whether I have the nerve to try.'" "Here, I'll do it." " There you are." " Thanks again." " Good night." " Can I see you tomorrow?" "Tomorrow night?" "Well..." "No, I mean tomorrow morning." " But I have to go to work, I've got a job." " Don't go to your job." "What will I live on, my oil wells in Texas?" "Let me take care of you, Judy." "Thanks very much, but no thanks." " You don't understand..." " I understand all right." "I've been understanding since I was 17." " And the next step is?" " No, no." "No, no." "No?" "Then what?" "We could just... see a lot of each other." "Why?" "Because I remind you of her?" "That's not very complimentary." "And nothing else?" "No." "That's not very complimentary either." "I just want to be with you as much as I can, Judy." "Well, I guess I..." "I could phone the store in the morning and... make some excuse." "(Mellow dance music)" "Hi, John." "I like that one." " That?" "All right." " That's very nice." " (Car horns honk)" " It's beautiful." "There we are." "We'll get this and then we'll buy you those clothes." " Honest?" " There's Ransohoffs." "Only the best." " How much is that?" " That'll be 50 cents." " You don't have to." " I want to." "No, that's not it." "Nothing like it." "But you said grey, sir." "Look, I just want an ordinary, simple grey suit." " But I like that one, Scottie." " No, it's not right." "The gentleman seems to know what he wants." "All right, we'll find it." " What are you doing?" " I'm trying to buy you a suit." "But... but I loved the second one she wore." " And this one, it's beautiful." " No, none of them are right." "I think I know the suit you mean, we had it some time ago." "We may still have that model." "Thank you." "You're looking for the suit that she wore." "You want me to dress like her." "I want you to look nice, I know what would look good." "No, I won't do it!" "Judy." "Judy, it can't make that much difference to you." "I don't want any clothes." "I want to get out of here." " Do this for me!" " (Assistant) Here we are." " Yes, that's it." " I thought so." " I don't like it." " We'll take it." "Will the thing fit?" "It might need some slight alterations but it's madam's size." "All right, dear." "You can try it on in a moment." " How long will the alterations take?" " Well..." " By tonight?" " If it's absolutely necessary." "Yes, it is." "We'd like to look at an evening dress." "Short, black, with long sleeves and kind of a square neck." " Scottie..." " (Assistant) My!" "You certainly do know what you want, sir." "I'll see what we have." "All right, that's it." "Do you have them in brown?" " Yes, we have." " Fine." "Here, Judy." "Drink this straight down, just like medicine." "Why are you doing this?" "What good will it do?" "I don't know." "I don't know." "No good, I guess." "I don't know." "I wish you'd leave me alone." "I want to go away." "You can, you know." "No, you wouldn't let me." "And I..." "I don't want to go." "Judy, these past few days have been the first happy days I've known in a year." "I know." "I know, because..." "because I remind you of her." "And not even that very much." "No." "No, Judy." "Judy, it's you too." "There's something in you that..." " You don't even want to touch me." " Yes, I do." "Couldn't you like me?" "Just me, the way I am?" "When we first started out, it was so good, we had fun." "And..." "And then you started in on the clothes." "I'll wear the darned clothes if you want me to, if you'll just... just like me." " The colour of your hair." " Oh, no!" "Judy, please, it can't matter to you." "Lf..." "If I let you change me, will that do it?" "If I do what you tell me..." " will you love me?" " Yes." "Yes." "All right." "All right then, I'll do it." "I don't care any more about me." "Come on over and sit by the fire." "I'm afraid it will take several hours." "The young lady thought she might see you at home." "No, you tell her I'll go to her hotel and wait for her there." "You're sure about the colour of the hair?" " Yes, it's an easy colour." " And the rest..." " We know what you want." " Thank you." "(Lift bell)" "Well?" "It should be back from your face and pinned at the neck." "I told her that." "We tried it, it just didn't seem to suit me." "Please, Judy." "(Door opens)" " Where shall we go for dinner?" " Anywhere you like." " Ernie's?" " You have a thing about Ernie's." "After all, it's our place." "Hello, my love." "Like me?" " Mm-hm." " Is that the best you can do?" " Come here." " Oh, no." "You'll muss me." "That's what I had in mind." "Come here!" "It's too late, I got my face on." "I'm suddenly hungry." " Would you rather go somewhere else?" " No, Ernie's is fine." "I'm gonna have..." "I'm gonna have one of those big, beautiful steaks." "Let me see." "To start, I think I'll..." "Help me with this, will you?" "I have it." " How do you work this thing?" " Can't you see?" " There you are." " Thank you." "I'm just about ready." "All I've got to do is find my lipstick." "Where did I put it?" "I had it a minute ago." "I wonder if it's here?" "There it is." "There, I'm ready." "First, muss me a little?" "Scottie, I do have you now, don't I?" "Would you like to go someplace out of town for dinner?" " We could drive down the peninsula." " If you like." "We're going awfully far." "I just feel like driving." "Are you terribly hungry?" "No." "It's all right." "Where are you going?" "One final thing I have to do." "And then I'll be free of the past." "Scottie... why are we here?" "I told you." "I have to go back into the past once more." "Just once more." "For the last time." "Why?" "Why here?" "Madeleine died here, Judy." " I don't want to go, I'd rather..." " No, I need you." "Why?" "I need you to be Madeleine for a while." "And when it's done, we'll both be free." " I'm scared." " I have to tell you about Madeleine now." "Right there." "We stood there and kissed for the last time." "She said, "If you lose me," ""you'll know that I wanted to keep on loving you."" "And I said, "I won't lose you."" "But I did." "And then she turned..." "and ran into the church." "And when I followed her, it was too late." "I don't want to go in there!" "It was too late." "Scottie..." "I couldn't find her." "Then I heard footsteps on the stairs." "She was running up the tower." "Right here." " Scottie..." " See, she was running up the stairs." "Through the trap door at the top of the tower." "I tried to follow her but I couldn't get to the top." "I tried but I couldn't get to the top." "One doesn't often get a second chance." "I want to stop being haunted." "You're my second chance, Judy." " You're my second chance!" " Take me away!" "You look like Madeleine now." "Go up the stairs." "Go up the stairs!" "Go up the stairs, Judy." "And I'll follow." "This was as far as I could get but you went on." "Remember?" "The necklace, Madeleine." "That was the slip." "I remembered the necklace." " Let me go!" " We're going up the tower!" "You can't!" "You're afraid!" "We'll see." "This is my second chance!" "You knew that day that I couldn't follow you." "Who was up there?" "Elster and his wife?" " Yes!" " And she was the one who died." "The real wife, not you!" "You were the copy, the counterfeit." " Was she dead or alive?" " Dead!" "He'd broken her neck." "Wasn't taking any chances, was he?" "When you got there, he pushed her off." "It was you that screamed!" "Why?" "I wanted to stop it." "I ran up to stop it." "Why did you scream?" "Since you tricked me so well up to then." "You played the wife very well." "He made you over, didn't he?" "Just like I did." "Only better." "Not only the clothes and the hair but the looks, the manner and the words and those beautiful phoney trances." "You jumped into the Bay, didn't you?" "I bet you're a wonderful swimmer." " Aren't you?" " Yes!" "And then what did he do?" "Did he train you?" "Did he rehearse you?" "Tell you exactly what to do and say?" "You were a very apt pupil too, weren't you?" "A very apt pupil." "But why did you pick on me?" "Why me?" "Your accident!" "My accident." "I was the setup, wasn't I?" "I was a made to order witness." "I was..." "I made it." " I made it." " What are you going to do?" "We're going up to look at the scene of the crime." "Come on, Judy!" "This is where it happened." "The two of you hid back there then sneaked down and drove into town." "Is that it?" "And then, you were his girl, huh?" "Well, what happened to you?" "Did he ditch you?" "With his wife's money, all that freedom and power, and he ditched you." "What a shame." "He knew he was safe, you couldn't talk." " Did he give you anything?" " Some money." "And the necklace." "Carlotta's necklace." "There was where you made your mistake, Judy." "You shouldn't keep souvenirs of a killing." "You shouldn't have been..." "You shouldn't have been that sentimental." "I loved you so, Madeleine." "Scottie..." "I was safe when you found me, you couldn't prove anything." "When I saw you again, I couldn't run away, I loved you so." "I walked into danger and let you change me because I loved you." "Oh, Scottie..." "Oh, Scottie, please." "You love me now, you'll keep me safe." " Please!" " Too late, there's no bringing her back." "Please!" "(Shuffling footsteps)" "Oh, no!" " (Woman) I heard voices." " (Screams)" "God have mercy."

"Spartacus!" "You charge without thought... a weakness an opponent could turn to advantage." "A difficult feat from his backside." "You speak without thought as well... another weakness." "Thracians... always on their back with their legs spread." "Where they belong." "Forget everything you learned outside these walls, for that is the world of men." "We are more." "We are gladiators!" "(men cheer)" "Study, train, bleed, and one day your name will be legend, spoken in hushed whispers of fear and awe, as the city speaks of Crixus, champion of Capua." "(men cheer)" "But his legend was not birthed in the arena." "It was given life here in this ludus, under the sting of my whip!" "Attack!" "Attend." "The vulcanalia is announced." "Vulcanalia?" "A festival to ward off wildfires." "Dominus Batiatus has seen fit to fight 20 at this year's vulcanalia... his gift to the people of Capua." "Our lowest shall fight at dawn, eight pairs to follow, after which your master will present his primus... two of our finest to meet in the arena." "Crixus then?" "Crixus certainly." "And his opponent?" "Against the champion of Capua... what would it matter?" "(insects chirping, dogs barking) 20 men..." "I pledged 20 men to fill the ranks of the vulcanalia, my own coin to see each victor paid." "What thanks do I get from the magistrate?" "He fears he will be unable to attend our reception on the eve of the games" " due to pressing concerns." " Of what sort?" "I hear a rumor he dines with Solonius instead." "Solonius?" "But he offers not one man for the vulcanalia." "Yet his tongue still manages to find its way to the magistrate's asshole." "Is that new?" "For the reception, yes." "The rising cost of this thing raises concern." "It raises opportunity." "I question not its import." "I question its scale." "This drought has stretched our resources thin, and now without the attendance of the magistrate..." "Darling, you must spend coins to receive coins." "My husband taught me that." "A wise man." "He has his moments." "And this will be one of them." "You'll delight and astound, securing business for the year to come, and perhaps even tempt Glaber's wife to take up the cause of patronage." "Ilithyia?" "I thought she was still in Rome with that ungrateful husband of hers." "She returns absent him for the games." "She's acquiring quite a taste for them, one which I shall nourish to advantage." "This new color suits you." "Shall I dye the rest to match?" "(bird screeches)" "(cock crows)" "(pigeon cooing)" "The bird would be better served in my bowl." "Odds the meal would be your last." "Barca?" "He stands but tall." "He stands a legend." "After Carthage suffered defeat by the Romans, they forced hundreds of his people to fight against each other in the arena." "Half a day passed, and only two remained..." "Barca and the chief of his people, the noble Mago." "Skill and the testament of years were his allies... strength and youth..." "Barca's." "Mago fell to his knees." "And Barca became the Beast of Carthage." "He sent an old man on his way." "Mago was a warrior of fierce renown, a chief upon a throne of blood." "He was also Barca's father, as the story tells." "Is it true?" "In the world of the gladiator, a man's fame and glory constructs its own truth." "Fame and glory." "I seek neither." "Coin then, like me." "Batiatus:" "Open the gates." "And have the guard ready." "A moment, Dominus." "10 paces." "Is there any news of my wife?" "She was indeed sold to a Syrian merchant." "You found her?" "I have cause to believe she sails upon the Orontes." "To Damascus then, or perhaps Antioch?" "Do I appear a fucking arrow, my nose pointing towards your wife's dripping thighs?" "You press beyond position." "Dominus." "The search continues." "That's all you need to know." "Until then, fight, win." "The price of her freedom requires substantial sums on your part." "Too common." "Show me something of note." "A moment." "I have just the thing." "My finest piece... a flawless gem imported at great cost from the mines of Scythia." " Price?" " 30 dinarii." "30?" "This piece... is it something that llithyia would favor?" "It's the only piece I'd show her." "She has very refined tastes." "25." " 29." " 28, and I'll resist pitching you off the balcony." "28 then." "Hmm." "Come along then." "Doctore:" "Form two." "Ready?" "One." "(men grunting)" "Form one." "Ready?" "One." "Two." "Form two." "Ready?" "One." "Two." "Form three." "Stand." "Spartacus, do you dream of the mines?" "My focus is on blood and battle, Doctore." "Yet your training proves you worthy of neither." "I'm a Thracian." "It is in my blood." "Thrace?" "Hmm." "A swamp of piss." "(chuckles)" "Kneel." "The land from which you hail matters no longer." "The only thing that does is the sound of my voice and the sand beneath your feet." "(men laugh)" "(spits)" "You will learn to worship it." "Back to training." "The sand smells like Thrace." "Perhaps I should shit to complete the aroma." "(men laugh)" "You... you're summoned." "This drought seems never to end." "How do you fare?" "Domina provides for me." "That's good." "Good." "How long have you served Domina?" "All my life." "I was born in this ludus." "You've recently come to blossom." "I barely noticed until I saw you at the games with Domina three moons past." "I fought Arnoch of Tarquinii." "Did you enjoy my victory?" "I was pleased when it ended." "It's no easy task to sever a man's head." "You must find the right angle." "I do not favor the games." "(laughs)" "Well, that is an odd bent for a slave at a gladiator school." "One not to be straightened." "I do not mean to insult." "Domina awaits." "You walk too slowly to my chambers." "I do not want to arouse the suspicions of my men as to my purpose." "What might that be, O Champion of Capua?" "Whatever Domina desires." "I bought this necklace for the reception." "Do you think it's too much?" "My blood rises, though to give the necklace credit would be false." "And what quickens your pulse?" "A touch of your lips, your breasts, and all of the pleasures below." "I need your cock inside me, and I need it in me now." "Never lose focus, not if Jupiter himself were to rip open the heavens and dangle his cock from the skies." "A gladiator's first distraction is his last." "Not all contests end in death." "Two fingers... a sign of surrender and shame." "The oath I swore to this place did not include begging." "He inquires as to the nuances..." "I need no lesson in submission." "You prefer a different lesson... in obedience perhaps?" "To the hole, both of you!" "Perhaps I spoke out of turn." "Perhaps." "What I perceived as courage in you reveals itself foolishness." "To surrender in the arena..." "I cannot do it." "I must have victory." "What happens if that is something you cannot provide?" "Oh, silence then?" "Next time you vex Doctore, you'll find my tongue of a similar fashion." "Your company here was not my intent." "Yet here I stand beside you, my cock soaking in the same shit." "Apologies." "That's all?" "No reason behind it?" "No glimpse into the fevered brain of what the fuck are you doing?" "I seek only to please Batiatus." "Pluto's asshole." "The answer has no balance with your actions." "He made me a promise." "What could he offer a man who seeks neither fame nor glory?" "My wife... taken from me when I was captured by the Romans." "I prevail in the arena, and he will find her." "Is she worth it?" "She's worth everything." "As is mine." "Two years here, pay my debt with the winnings..." "hold her in my arms again." "Perhaps this smell will have washed off by then." "(laughs)" "What name do you call her?" "Aurelia." "Yours?" "Sura." "So... buried up to our balls in garbage... is this part of your plan to get Sura back?" "You would waste your ration cleaning a bit of cloth?" "It bears meaning to me." "Gather." "Your master's hand has been at work." "The pairings of the vulcanalia have been decided." "Crixus, unbeaten champion of Capua, you will honor the house of Batiatus by fighting in his primus." "And who will challenge me, Doctore?" "A man of skill and dedication." "His ability, his hard work and his hunger shall be rewarded..." "Gnaeus." "At last we meet, brother." "Don't die too quickly." "Me?" "I will fuck your corpse." "(men laughing)" "With what cock?" "Ashur has the remainder." "May the gods be with you." "One by one." "One by one, you fucking cunts." "Batiatus himself handed me this list." "Give it here, shitfuck." "Ashur:" "Savages." "Fucking cock." "Let me see." "Shit, give it here." "Did you gain position?" "As did you." "We are set to fight each other at the beginning of the games." "The first match... the slot of the meek and insubstantial." "We shall prove otherwise." "And to what aim?" "The victor's purse won't be more than half a coin." "So little?" "Not enough for either of our causes." "And the primus?" "Considerably more." "I've already bested Crixus once in the final test." "Now I must fight my way up through the dregs to face him again?" "Dregs, am I?" "You know my meaning." "If Batiatus hadn't stayed my hand," "I would have parted his brains from his skull." "There's no love lost between myself and Crixus." "(exhales)" "But I caution... he's dangerous." "A reputation built on what, facing men such as Gnaeus and his little net?" "Crixus forged his reputation against far worse... demons belched from the underworld." "The Gargan twins." "Uh-huh." "Decimus and Tiberius, sons of a whore raped by a jackal, more beasts than men." "They terrorized the eastern seaboard for many years until their capture." "They were cast in the arena to die and instead flourished on meals of bone and blood... the bodies of stout men left in their wake, half devoured." "No one dared face them willingly except for one..." "Crixus, the champion of Capua." "The blood flowed." "The crowd roared." "And the demons fell beneath his sword." "Spartacus:" "The sons of a jackal?" "So they say." "This story is a jest like Crixus himself." "Did you hear this one?" "One day maybe you'll prove yourself." "Till then you'll fight at dawn with the rest of the shitwhores." "I keep pace with the mighty Spartacus." "Does that place my worth among the dregs?" " (laughs) I misspoke." " A thing with you, is it not?" "I shall call you equal." "More will need to be earned." "It will be a good fight." "May the gods see us both survive." "There are many I would see dead in this place." "You are not among them, Varro." "You may not have a choice." "There's always a choice." "That look gives me worry." "Words I've often heard from my wife." "Your net's aim is remarkably true, Gnaeus." "You strike an impressive figure battling that little wooden man." "I long to see you in the arena, among the men." "There you are with your fierce net, like a young, wet girl." "Fucking cunt." "The sun has made Gnaeus mad." "He charged like a crazed goat." "I saw his eyes." "They were wild with thirst." "Barca, Kerza, tend to Gnaeus." "Back to work!" "Ashur, there's something I need you to get for me." "Whatever your needs, Ashur provides." "Follow me away from prying ears." "I must make a point to stop standing beside you." "Gnaeus is of an unsteady nature." "If your intent was to claim Gnaeus's berth in the primus, you're a fool." "He served five years before being afforded the privilege." "Sura cannot afford years." "Nor your death, which is surely your station if you face Crixus in the arena." "Gladiators, your public has arrived." "Dress quickly." "The reception begins." "(music playing)" "(laughs) Crixus, let good Mercato have a closer look at your sword." "Dominus." "(Batiatus guffaws)" "The very blade used to strike down Tiberius and Decimus." "If you were to bestow Capua with a gift of a munus, what better means than by securing Crixus along with a dozen or so of my other offerings to round out proceedings?" "I have been contemplating the games in honor of my good friend..." "Ashur, good Mercato has set his mind to a day of games." "Let's see his order well filled, shall we?" "Go." " Oh, the dust and the heat." " It worsens by the hour." "I'd yet be in Rome if it weren't for the games." "You must promise to visit while I'm here." "My father's villa is beyond depressing." "It's unfortunate that your husband couldn't join you." "How fares the legatus?" "In a mood." "Since his return from Thrace, the senate has become his mistress." "Her demands on him are boundless." "Men and their ambitions." "You know, they should learn to appreciate the finer things in life." "That necklace..." "I adore it." "Oh, this?" "It's a trinket." "Calls to mind a piece I had from Ramel one season, when emerald was still the fashion." "I hear it's coming back around." "Oh, perhaps I'll root mine out then." "Friends old and new, gratitude for honoring the storied ludus of Batiatus with your presence this eve." "Tomorrow's vulcanalia promises many glories in the arena." "But tonight may I present you with the finest gladiators in all of the republic?" "(crowd exclaiming)" "Look, touch, feel the quality of the stock." "Place orders for any of the men you covet." "Come, don't be bashful." "They won't bite." "And if they do, a 10% discount." "The crowd fancies our Thracian, don't they?" "A curiosity born of his fortune against Solonius's men." "Better curiosity than indifference." "Perhaps we could fuel this interest into a conflagration of coin." "With Gnaeus of questionable skull, what make you of Spartacus as replacement in the primus?" "With respect, Dominus, the public seeks an honorable fight." "Spartacus is yet an animal." "Well, I'll think on." "One day, though, a contest to be promoted." "A moment alone... a rarity for a man with such an adoring public, huh?" "(clears throat) To business then." "A difficult task on a short notice, yet... carried to completion." "Cockfucker." "Your Gaul is of a fine cut, is he not?" "None finer in all of the republic." "Such a man." "I tremble to see him again at the arena." "As do we all." "The Thracian yet lives." "For now." "Is there nothing more of interest to see?" "Well, my husband will shortly announce his primus." "And there's ample wine." "I fear it already beckons my sleep." "Perhaps I'd best take leave." "Of course." "Of course, there is one thing that I thought you might enjoy." "It's something of a much more physical nature." "You, come with me." "Five dinarii says he doesn't last another 20 strokes." "I've never seen a gladiator fuck before." "Look at the way he rams her, like an enraged bull." "A gladiator's virtues extend well beyond the sands of the arena." "As lovers they are said to be ravenous beasts." "You can touch." "Forgive me, Aurelia." "They provide unimaginable pleasures." "Can he do it again?" "Make him do it again." "Proceed." " So are we in agreement?" " Rabanus will meet Crixus." "We'll move Hamilcar up to fill the void." "I overheard Batiatus and Doctore in conference... the primus their intent." "The Sardinian is to face Crixus." "The news does not balance my cause." "Whatever your thoughts, cast them out." "Good citizens, you have enjoyed my food, my wine, the aphrodisiac presence of my beautiful wife." "Now marvel at the announcing for tomorrow's primus." "Crixus, the champion of Capua, will stride across the sand and face..." "(crowd exclaiming)" "Spartacus!" "No, let them fight." "Enough." "I'll take your fucking heart." "Come and take it, coward." "Ha!" "See the hatred burning beyond control." "Eh?" "This was merely a taste." "Tomorrow they will settle this grudge in the arena." "(crowd cheers)" "Crixus the undefeated," "Spartacus... the dog who defies death." "A fight for the ages." "Glory to Capua!" "Glory to Rome!" "To Rome!" "The reception nearly ruined, and what is his punishment?" "The fucking primus." "You heard the crowd." "I made the best of the situation." "The Thracian is yet to stand a single match as gladiator." "Why leap him ahead of all the others to face Crixus?" "Because of what he possesses..." "the public's interest." "They stroke a rabid dog." "Spartacus has struck a chord." "I intend to maximize its profit." "He's unpredictable." "He has no regard for rules or for honor." "And if something happens to Crixus..." "He poses no threat to Crixus." "He is but a novelty to be used and discarded after a purpose." "Fucking gods' cock, is there no wine left?" "What are you standing there for?" "Go and get some fucking wine." "(jug crashes)" "Apologies." "I did not mean to startle." "When we spoke last," "I meant no offense." "I am practiced with sword, not words." "If Domina discovers I dropped the last jug..." "Hand me the pieces." "I'll see them over the cliff." "Wait." "Perhaps this gift will explain where words fail." "Please." "(gasps)" "I'm trying to decide." "Upon what?" "Congratulations or condolences." "You may have bested Crixus once by tripping him with that bit of cloth, but to face him in the arena..." "I believe his reputation inflated." "Tomorrow I shall prove it so." "Next he'll boast he can defeat Theokoles himself." "Perhaps, if I knew the man." "(laughter)" "Theokoles... the shadow of death." "He speaks so brazenly of the arena." "He knows nothing of its history." "Theokoles is no man, Thracian." "He is something else entirely." "They say he stands over 10' tall." "The very ground trembles at his feet, his shadow eclipsing the sun." "Most men fall dead at the sight of the giant." "They are the fortunate ones." "My father tells of a munus where the shadow fought over 100 men." "But one survived." "A tale to frighten children." "Theokoles is no legend." "Before he retired from the arena, only one man ever faced him and lived." "And he breathes among us, his whip ever at our backs." "Now is not the hour for idle talk." "Tomorrow you step into the arena, many for the first time, for some perhaps the last." "(gate opens, footsteps)" "(crowd roaring, metal clanging)" "They cheer for blood." "And they shall have it." "May the gods bring you fortune as they did me this morning." "Sura believed in the gods when the Romans took her." "Not one descended from the heavens to intervene." "I shall correct their mistake presently." "I believe you will." "(blood gushes, man screams)" "Capua!" "The crowd favor your offerings." "Yes, a fine showing all around." "You honor our fair city, Batiatus." "The honor is mine, Magistrate." "Truth told, I feared the event would pass without anything of note this year." "It's very difficult to procure men of worth for these minor games." "Good Solonius was already taken with loftier engagements." "Perhaps Solonius will be available next year." "One can but pray." "Perhaps I was wrong to return absent the rain." "Some water perhaps, or maybe some wine." "Ugh, the thought churns the stomach." "Your company last night yet astounds the senses." "Too much?" "Of wine, definitely." "Of other interests," "I think the surface barely scratched." "Some water then to slake your current thirst." "(laughs)" "Here we go then." "Good citizens of Capua, it is my great honor to introduce to you the primus of Quintus Lentulus Batiatus." "(crowd cheering)" "Enter Thraex!" "Behold Spartacus!" "Spartacus!" "Spartacus!" "Spartacus!" "Renowned for his magnificent victory at the games of Senator Albinius, where he single-handedly slaughtered four of Solonius's gladiators... four!" "Enter murmillo!" "The marvel before you needs no introduction." "He's known by his sword, by his shield, by his glory!" "(roars)" "Crixus, champion of Capua." "Crixus!" "Crixus!" "Crixus!" "Finally, Crixus." "Look how his form catches the sun." "Capua!" "Crixus!" "Crixus!" "Crixus!" "Capua!" "Batiatus:" "In honor of the name of Batiatus and the sacred vulcanalia... (screams)" "You've not yet finished the oration, and yet the Thracian attacks." " Was that not supposed to happen?" " No, it was not." "How exciting." "(screams)" "Is that all the Thracian is capable of?" "After what he did against Solonius's men," "I had hoped for more." "(crowd chanting) Crixus!" "Crixus!" "Crixus!" "Kill him!" "Crixus, I love you!" "(laughing)" "Capua!" "Shall I begin?" "(coughs)" "(screams)" "Now you die, Thracian." "(crowd chanting) Kill kill kill kill!" "Spartacus fought well." "Let him live to fight another day." "A sour bite to end the meal." "Apologies, yet Spartacus was of some cost to me." "You've already lost the crowd." "He lives." "How disappointing." "His reputation is well-earned." "My blade could find no weakness." "And yet it was there... at least 10 points where you could have seized advantage." "You needed more training." "I shall train harder then." "No." "It is too late for such things." "(theme music playing)"

"you see the world like a giant candy store... filled with sweet candy and such." "filled with sweet candy and such." "But one day you look around and see a prison... and you're on death row." "You want to run... or scream... or cry." "But something's locking you up." "Are the other folks cows chewing cud till the hour come when their heads roll?" "Or are they just keeping quiet like you?" "Planning their escape." "honey." "What's that cashier's name?" "Can't say." "When did he start working here?" "Don't know." "Yesterday." "Who is he?" "Don't know." "Can't say." "What are you doing?" "princess." "Kind of fun." "You might want to give it a go some day." "shoppers." "There's a Retail Rodeo special on aisle 3." "2 12-ounce cans for $5.00." "Liquid Drain Cleaner has churning power... and it will churn right through your pipes." "you need female plumbing." "Shove something clean and new up your filthy pipes." "That's Liquid Drain Cleaner on aisle 3." "Have a good day... and thank you for shopping at Retail Rodeo." "Justine." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "Yeah." "uh... have you ever been to a Bible study?" "Yeah." "we got a good one going on every Wednesday at the First Church of Nazarene." "Bonita comes." "You got any interest in reading the Bible?" "beliefs." "we don't preach fire and brimstone." "10 Commandments..." "gotta live by those." "Other than the usual ways... we're not interested in scaring people." "We're about loving Jesus." "I kind of like my nights to myself." "maybe you'll have night after night of eternal hellfire all to yourself." "Just kidding you." "Drive safe." "Bye-bye." "Justine." "Teeny." "How was your day?" "The same." "How was yours?" "Wind was flipping up paint in our eyes." "Paint stings." "Feel like I've been attacked by hornets in my eyeballs." "stand up." "Why?" "for Christ sakes." "Phil." "Y'all got paint all over it." "This ain't gonna come off." "Phil." "Including this gorgeous eggplant shape..." "I think we got most of it up." "You two were stoned." "Keep frying your brain like that... you're gonna slip off a ladder and crack open your head bone." "Phil." "Like what?" "Like sitting on my couch with your big blue ass." "Everything just turns to shit." "We're finally getting nice things... and then everything just gets messed up." "Why is this TV buzzing?" "it's the wind doing that." "They say the wind's coming in different lately." "Different from what?" "What you reading?" "Catcher in the Rye." "I'm named after it." "Catcher?" "Holden." "After Holden Caulfield." "He's the main character." "What's he do?" "He's put upon by society... the hypocrisy of the world." "not very social." "so..." "What do you write?" "screenplays... poetry." "That's good." "Now Justine will be right over with you." "Where is she?" "I better go." "W-What happens at the end of your book?" "he has a nervous breakdown... goes to a mental hospital." "You don't get paid to pick your crack." "You get paid to work." "I'm not sure I can do makeovers." "eyeliner... rouge on the cheeks... and powder it up." "And then you take a moist tissue... roll it in a ball... and toss it in their face." "girl." "Where are you?" "Sorry." "I'm just a little tired." "I'm telling you..." "Justine." "Look at me..." "I am 10 years older than you... and I've got 10 times your energy." "and I don't eat dairy." "honey." "Why you walk around with that hung-jaw look on your face." "It's the cheese in your pizza and the chicken in your salad." "I've been to the doctor." "He says I'm fertile." "Says I could repopulate the entire planet." "Then what's the deal here?" "Did he say you're getting enough vitamins?" "He didn't say." "Or you can make a kind of paint at different angles... the house is different colors." "you stand at the front door... and the house is red." "But you stand at the street... the house is green." "an invisible paint." "Just make the whole house disappear." "Or what would be really neat is a paint that could change the molecular structure of a house... like a chemical acid deal." "Teeny?" "I think you two are a pair of potheads." "you getting a whole one of these or a half?" "I'm getting that right there." "wonderful." "You didn't bring this into the store with you?" "No." "Then I'll go ahead and charge you for it." "This is a hand lotion... so don't put it on any other part of your body... even if that part needs lubrication." "We try to keep frivolous lawsuits to a minimum... the customer is at fault." "Do you always wear makeup?" "not very often." "and fuck you very much." "Excuse me?" "Thank you very much." "I tell you." "Good as new." "you might be interested in purchasing some of the products that I used today..." "I'm not buying anything today." "That'd be a mistake." "These are bargain prices." "I didn't bring my purse." "I hate my job." "That makes two of us." "I hate everybody here." "I hate Gwen." "I don't know what the hell she's so happy about." "I'm starting to understand why maniacs go out there and get shotguns and shoot everybody to pieces." "Maybe you're a maniac." "Maybe so." "like a woman?" "And your eyes always look sad... the way they droop off to the side." "How old are you?" "22." "I'm an old lady next to you." "How old are you?" "How old do you think?" "I don't know." "I'm 30 years old." "How long you been working here for?" "Forever and a day." "You don't have a car?" "I live down the street." "You can ride in here." "There's room." "Do you wanna come in?" "I don't know." "I'm in a funk." "I'm not gonna beg you." "I'm not gonna beg you." "You got to go there in your head... and things changed for me." "I'll be in my room." "Tom." "I can look over my shoulder... figuratively speaking." "They call you Tom?" "It's my slave name." "Holden's what I call myself." "This is my room." "Not a lot to look at." "What are your folks like?" "They're OK." "They don't get me." "But they're all right." "They just..." "My husband doesn't get me." "Since when do you have a husband?" "Since 7 years." "He's a painter." "What's he paint?" "Houses." "but he doesn't think." "I'm sick of it." "Did you go to college?" "I had to drop out 'cause I had a problem with drinking and stuff... but I'll go back." "I just got to... prove to my folks I can fly straight." "Did you go to college?" "I was afraid I'd lose Phil if I went." "Now it'd be reason enough to go." "I was looking at you in the store... and I liked how you kept to yourself." "I saw in your eyes that you hate the world." "too." "You know what I'm talking about?" "After living in the dark for so long... a glimpse of the light can make you giddy." "Strange thoughts come into your head... and you better think 'em." "Has a special fate been calling you and you not listening?" "Is there a secret message right in front of you... and you're not reading it?" "best chance?" "Are you gonna take it?" "Or are you going to the grave with unlived lives in your veins?" "for instance." "What did I say?" "If you had a wife." "What did I talk about?" "I talked to Margaret." "filled out a red dress." "What else?" "you're pretty." "isn't Teeny pretty?" "I seen better." "I seen worse." "that's why I ain't never married." "You got yourself the best fish in the sea." "I wonder what it'd be like to be a woman." "All that smooth skin... long hair." "I'd be a slut." "A lesbian slut." "Gwen says smoking marijuana lowers your sperm." "Lowers it to where?" "Maybe you're the infertile one around here." "Maybe every time you smoke a little doobie... you're killing our unborn children." "close." "Why are you limping'?" "I..." "I twisted up my ankle on the stairs." "I was wondering maybe you could give me a ride home." "OK." "I'll talk to you about it later." "every woman should have one beau before any woman has 2 beaus." "He's not my beau." "He's my friend." "Retail Rodeo shoppers." "There's a Retail Rodeo special on all bulk candy on aisle 4." "witches and warlocks... wandering these aisles day after day..." "I put a Halloween curse on your hellish heads." "Corny." "Good night." "Happy Halloween." "but thanks all the same." "Holden?" "My left." "Hmm." "Maybe you should put some cold water on it so it doesn't swell up and inflame." "OK." "I guess." "you know... lie in bed and imagine other cities... other jobs I could have... other husbands." "Now I don't even know what to imagine anymore." "I have a husband." "Thought you said he was a pig." "Well..." "Holden..." "I don't want to hurt anybody." "So I been thinking about what you're saying about my sperm being low." "I know I got good sperm." "but... suppose it couldn't hurt to have it confirmed by an expert." "who gives a shit?" "anyway?" "You wanna make yourself useful around here?" "Why don't you get that goddamn TV fixed?" "What the hell?" "It sounds like a helicopter is landing in here." "honey?" "Man was selling 'em on the road." "thank you." "They're real sweet." "This is for you." "It's from Holden." "Where is he?" "He's got the day off." "He came by this morning with it." "Thanks." "Gwen." "sugar." "Dear Justine..." "I'll be quitting the Retail Rodeo." "The last 2 days have been the most god-awful of my life." "I've not been able to get rid of you in my head." "I've never wanted anything so bad... and I have wanted many things." "I'd given up long ago on being gotten by someone else... and then you came along." "The idea that I could be gotten because of circumstance or never get got is the worst feeling I've ever felt... and I have felt many bad feelings." "Justine." "but that is who I am." "Good-bye..." "Holden Worther." "for some reason... you could change your mind and want to be with me... meet me after work." "I will be waiting for you at 5 p.m." "outside Chuck E. Cheese." "If you are not there at 5:00... you will never see me again in your lifetime." "Gwen." "What's wrong?" "I'm OK." "I feel a little sick." "Let's go." "There he goes." "What happened?" "There he goes." "Gwen?" "Gwen?" "Justine?" "You're OK." "What's going on in here?" "you sick?" "We got..." "We gotta get her to a hospital." "you drive her to Saint Catherine's." "what time is it?" "you gotta be somewhere?" "Gwen." "I had a dream." "I had a dream I was sprouting a beard made of bean sprouts." "OK?" "OK." "You'll meet me inside?" "yeah." "You know what I'm gonna do?" "I'm gonna park the car... and then I'll come in and meet you in there." "OK." "Thanks." "You're a doll." "I'm really glad you came." "I just ditched Gwen at the hospital." "thank God." "Where are we going?" "Let's go to my house." "No." "With your folks there?" "We'll just park somewhere." "this isn't well-planned." "I don't know." "I don't care." "Wherever you want." "I just want to hold you." "Wherever you want." "I just want to hold you." "That's $45 even." "And I need you to fill this out for me." "Stay here." "I can't do it." "We'll be back here before you know it." "I don't want to." "I don't want to go." "Justine." "I'm yours." "I'm all yours." "Where you been?" "Gwen got real sick today." "She was throwing up all over the store." "I had to take her to the hospital and sat with her." "Did she sick up on you?" "No." "Did she sick up on anybody?" "Ha ha ha ha." "Phil." "It's serious." "too." "And the next day." "what happened to you?" "What?" "Went down to Saint Catherine's to check up on Gwen." "I looked all over for you." "She was asking for you." "How is she?" "She was heaving up until there was nothing left to heave." "Doctor said she must've eaten something with some kind of parasite in it... some kind of bacteria." "I bet it was those blackberries." "They're gonna keep her in there so... you're gonna have to supervise cosmetics." "Stop it." "Somebody's gonna see." "Who cares?" "I don't care." "I crave you." "I want to know everything about you." "Who are you?" "I'm just this woman." "I moved to Texas when I was 11." "My daddy was in the air force." "I wanna knock your head open and see what's inside." "I've had so much pain in my life." "too." "I can see it." "Holden gave me two of his stories to read." "It was more like the story of what a story would be." "It was about a boy who was put upon... whose mother is cold and selfish and whose father wanted him to play football." "especially girls." "the boy comes to believe that no one can ever really know him." "He starts acting out... drinking and taking all kinds of drugs." "the boy kills himself by jumping over a bridge." "The second story was pretty much the same as the first... the boy kills himself by drinking a bottle of bug poison." "Your stories are intense." "I just want to leave some kind of legacy." "Something great." "I don't care what happens to me." "Don't say that." "I wish there was a story about me." "though." "I would." "I like this." "I like having a secret." "Holden." "See?" "you're mysterious." "And dark and twisted." "aren't I?" "you are." "What is it?" "That's Bubba's truck." "Get in the car." "Phil takes that truck to work every day." "Bubba picks him up and drops him off." "Why?" "Why would that truck be parked there?" "I don't know." "If he finds out about us..." "I won't let him hurt you." "Holden." "He'll kill you." "but he will kill you." "You can't worry about something that hasn't even happened." "I gotta go to the hospital." "All right." "he could be following us." "Justine." "Poor lady." "She just passed." "What?" "Who did?" "Gwen." "She passed away." "Wha..." "What do you mean?" "I thought she had a stomachache." "she got worse... and..." "I don't understand." "Justine." "No one can understand it." "No point trying." "It was just Gwen's time to... fly away home." "Gwen died today." "What?" "Are you kidding?" "What for?" "Parasite." "Bacteria." "Something she ate." "Are you OK?" "Where were you this afternoon?" "Painting on Bovary." "Why?" "What time did Bubba bring you home?" "about 4:00." "Bubba had a date with a stewardess." "Why?" "I can't believe she's dead." "I wasn't a very good friend to her." "Teeny." "Of course you were." "Of course you were." "Retail Rodeo employees... your store manager." "Before we open today..." "I have some terrible and shocking news." "Gwen Jackson... died yesterday." "Gwen was a real class act." "She had a good attitude." "She had ideas." "And we're all gonna miss her." "if any of y'all need to collect your thoughts and remember Glen..." "Gwen... ahem... then today's the day." "You'll be excused from work... and we'll just have to do without you." "this one's for you." "Holden had the notion to spend the day at Gabler's Creek... skinny-dipping and making love." "He said we'd be like Adam and Eve... rolling in the sticks and dirt and being one with the wilderness." "He was so fixed on the idea that even when the clouds were coming in and the sky was getting dark... he kept on swimming'." "All my thoughts turned to death." "I thought of Gwen's body rotting away." "I thought about what a nice person she was... so full of life and goodwill." "Gwen would be there... giving makeovers and offering up helpful advice." "what would happen to me... a hateful girl... a selfish girl?" "An adulteress." "A liar." "What are we doing?" "Making one out of two." "I haven't thought this through." "Justine... you leave him." "And go where?" "With you on my arm... my folks would think I've changed... and they'd stop thinking I'm such a loner." "a pretty one... and they'd be so happy they'd give me money to write my novel." "But where will we go?" "It'll be like..." "Catcher in the Rye... but by me." "likeJ.D. Salinger..." "I'll just vanish." "Teeny." "We been up to no good." "Got the day off on account of the rain." "I thought you might." "What are you doing?" "I heard about your friend being dead and all." "I'm sorry." "too." "at least you were with her when she went." "Isn't that right?" "You were with her when she went." "Yeah." "I wish it would rain every day from here on out." "Never have to paint again." "you have to make sure you order the right ones when you run out." "Justine." " Hi." "How you holding up?" "Fine." "Real shocker." "I decided to move Cheryl over to cosmetics." "She got a little too creative on the P.A." "Maybe she'll watch her Ps and Qs over here." "she's out on her butt." "sister." "Do you want me to help you get stuff out of storage?" "No." "Maybe later?" "are you going to give me a ride home today?" "My ankle sure is acting up." "I got to get home." "But maybe Cheryl can." "What?" "You need a ride?" "Forget it." "I think we got to take a breather." "I'm nervous." "I feel guilty." "can't we go to the motel?" "Not today." "let's go to the storeroom." "Holden." "I was wondering" "Bible study?" "It's tomorrow night at 8:00." "We'd sure love to have you." "Can I bring my husband?" "Of course." "the couple that prays together stays together." "What's this?" "The Holy Bible." "There's one for you and one for me." "is it?" "We're going to Bible study." "The couple that prays together stays together." "I heard it was the couple that lays together stays together." "you heard wrong." "Cheryl... do you think you could take this one?" "Sure." "ma'am." "We're going to make you pretty." "Now how do you like your hair?" "What?" "Are you going to do my hair?" "I just need to know if that's your usual way of wearing it... all big and high." "I'll just put more makeup on your chin to offset it." "You're going to want to take a whole bottle of this home with you." "It's got quite a lot of ingredients in it... so you're getting a good deal." "It's got ginkgo extract in it." "Do you know what that is?" "No." "It's extract of the ginkgo... and it makes your skin real slick so that any liquid will roll right off you... or urine." "I'll put it in a bag for you." "Phil... what are you doing?" "what are you doing?" "What?" "We're going to be late for Bible study." "You're stoned." "You got paint in your hair." "dummy?" "I completely didn't remember." "get in the shower." "Working on your spiritual life?" "I guess." "Ain't that a hoot and a holler?" "What do you mean?" "Justine." "You saw me what?" "I saw you." "We got some things to talk about... you and me." "You come by my house tomorrow after work... if you know what's good for you." "Where's Bubba?" "He left." "I'm ready." "Let's go." "I don't know what to say aboutJesus." "I'm stoned." "Just let the other people do the talking." "geez..." "Justine." "they'll forgive us." "Howdy." "Welcome." "people." "Glad you could make it." "Corny." "This is my husband..." "Phil." "Phil." "Y'all are in for a treat." "We got a good discussion planned for tonight." "If man is made in God's image... what does that say about God?" "man." "I want to talk to you about the casting of Pilgrim's Progress." "come with me to the car." "What?" "Come with me to the car." "I got to get something." "What are you doing?" "Get in the car." "Phil." "What the hell?" "I don't want to go to Bible study." "Why not?" "Because I don't want to." "Now let's just get out of here." "this is embarrassing." "We're running away from Bible study like a couple of devil worshipers." "I don't care." "I'm not in the mood." "man." "Why?" "Why?" "Because we forgot our Bibles is why." "You just said 2 seconds ago they'd forgive us." "all right?" "So can we please just get the shit out of here?" "All right." "I'm never going back to Bible study again." "I can tell you that much." "I don't care." "Fine by me." "Let's just go." "don't you think?" "Not at all." "I'm just trying to match your face with your hair." "I was thinking you're not white enough." "I think I look kind of weird." "The first rule of fashion is you have to look weird." "What I'm doing has come straight here from France." "It's called Cirque du Face... ma'am." "you're the professional." "That's right... and you're in good hands." "what happened to you?" "and I saw you two driving off like vampires in the night." "gee... we... we forgot our Bibles." "you could have just looked on with your neighbor." "you know." "You can't make water without bumping your nut on a Bible." "we felt bad." "What in blazes?" "Do you like it?" "I can't go." "What?" "I can't go today." "There's something important that I have to tend to." "I thought you said we'd go today." "something came up." "what?" "What came up?" "uh... maybe... somebody has found out about us." "I'm starting to wonder if you even want to go." "I'm starting to think you don't get me." "Maybe I don't get you." "You do!" "You do get me!" "You just don't want to get me... because I'm too intensified for you." "who cares..." "Who cares if someone found out?" "Justine." "I know what it's like to go home every night and feel like you're hiding out." "We can leave all this behind." "Holden." "You are not married." "Are you just going to give up?" "You going to go crawling back?" "you are going to get us caught!" "You're so fucking frightened... it makes me sick." "Wait... don't give up on us." "I won't." "OK." "OK." "OK?" "OK?" "OK." "Good luck on your important thing." "Thanks." "Bits." "Back in your corner!" "Back in your corner!" "Bits!" "Come on in." "I want to show you something." "Sit." "You get in your corner!" "Get in your corner!" "I mean it!" "In your corner!" "In your corner!" "I'm in shock." "Why?" "You know why." "Bubba sat like that for what seemed like 10 years before he began to speak." "when he opened his mouth... he talked a blue streak about the sad ruin that was his life." "He talked about how he loved Phil... and how he loved me... and how he always wanted a girlfriend just like me and to be a guy like Phil and to be a guy like Phil to this imaginary girl like me who he never found." "Then he started on about giving up your dreams and how it's all a part of getting older." "Bubba had given up his dream of being Phil." "He had accepted his fate of being Bubba... always and forever." "Then last week... a door that had always been shut swung wide open." "Bubba felt that this was no chance coincidence." "A cosmic force was at work." "The sounds of me making love to a man who wasn't Phil was like a shout in Bubba's ear from the Creator himself." "or what to do or why..." "Bubba didn't know." "All he knew was that he hated me for poisoning the well of idealism from which he had drunk for so long." "I was no longer Bubba's image of perfection." "I was just a liar and a whore... and that sickened him." "But on the other hand... he loved me for opening his eyes and releasing him from the bitter chains of envy that bound him to Phil." "Phil was no Superman... just a cuckold and a fool... and that was beautiful." "Bubba felt that there was just one thing left for us to do... something that would solve both of our problems and end this whole tragic saga." "I'm not going to sleep with you." "But don't you see?" "This is my chance for liberation." "But one person's..." "But one person's... liberation... is another person's badness." "There's just no way." "I'm going to have to tell Phil then." "Why?" "He's my best friend." "I can't keep him in the dark about something this big." "He's a cuckold." "But you want to cuckold him yourself." "That's different." "That's not about him." "That's about my salvation." "you've got your choice to make..." "Destroy your marriage and break your husband's heart... or have sex with me right now." "Bits!" "Down!" "In your corner!" "Justine!" "Justine!" "Justine!" "Oh!" "God!" "What?" "There was someone at that window." "Did you not see?" "you're paranoid." "I got to go." "Phil is never going to find out about any of this." "Don't fret." "Just get this damn dog away from me." "Justine." "A free man." "Great." "Good for you." "Thank you." "Bits!" "Bits!" "Bits!" ". ." "The children." "All the tales of mystical places began with "once upon a time..." "I'm nervous." "You're nervous?" "Why?" "Because I got to go to that doctor tomorrow that's why." "What if I can't do it?" "You can do it." "if you said you'd help me..." "I'd feel a lot less nervous." "It's going to be on your lunch hour anyway." "OK." "You didn't even say nothing about the TV being fixed." "Oh." "Is it?" "Thanks." "You're welcome." "aren't you a fright?" "have you heard from Holden?" "He didn't show up for work today." "I want to know what gives." "I know you two are friends." "We're not friends." "You eat lunch together every day." "we don't." "if you see him... tell him Jack Field's looking for him." "my God!" "What are you doing?" "You're a hooker." "You hooker!" "I saw you." "You followed me." "So how many guys you gettin' with?" "You gettin' with every guy in the state?" "this is all because of you!" "He had me over a barrel." "If I didn't sleep with him... he was going to tell Phil about us." "I'm so alone!" "You've got to get ahold of yourself." "Are you drunk?" "I'm drunk!" "And I'll be drunk every day until the day I die!" "What do you care?" "You'll jump on any pecker that's put in front of you!" "It's not what you think." "I saw everything!" "my God!" "sober up... meet me after work... and we will talk about this." "Where are you going?" "I got to help Phil with his sperm." "What?" "Just go!" " Go on!" " Wait." "Justine!" "Maybe with one man... but not with a whole bunch of them!" "great." "would you come with me?" "Wish me luck." "honey." "partner." "You look nice." "I don't." "and I can figure why... but from where I stand... what happened yesterday was a wonderful thing." "so drop it." "Justine." "I am." "I mean it." "Let me just ask you one thing." "How do I stack up against Phil... you know?" "How do I stack up against him where it counts?" "Ma'am?" "Your husband has made a request for your presence." "Who's that?" "It's Justine." "Come on." "I can't do this on my own." "I need help." "What?" "You've never done it on your own?" "Not in a place like this." "Not when I have to hand over the results." "Just... let me hold your boob." "Here." "Ow!" "They're sore." "What's wrong with you?" "You look like death." "My stomach's cramping." "I feel sore." "Is it your period?" "it's just stress." "this job's stressful." "I'm breaking out." "You're breaking out because you put so much makeup on your face." "Maybe you're pregnant." "What?" "No." "sometimes I think to myself..." "At least it can't get any worse." "But it can." "It could get worse." "As long as you can say you hit rock bottom... you haven't." "my God... blackberries." "A blind man could go deaf... a widow could lose her children... babies starve and they never get food." "They never get any food!" "They just come into the world and they die." "all right?" "I can't calm down!" "It'd be easy if I was a hooker like you... then I could calm down all over town." "I am not a hooker!" "I..." "I know you're not." "I'm in agony." "Why?" "What do you mean why?" "I thought you hated your life." "but... but you are really depressed." "I'll kill him." "I'll murder him in his sleep." "I'll steal their money... whatever it takes..." "just... just whatever you want." "Just as long as it's you and me." "Justine." "OK." "I can't take it!" "I won't." "I promise." "I won't." "OK?" "I realized then a child... a demon." "If I was ever going to go straight..." "I'd have to ditch him." "Sometimes to get back on the road to redemption... you have to make a few pit stops." "How much are the blackberries?" "miss." "Here you go." "Thank you." "Have a blackberry." "We..." "We need a plan." "We can't keep living day-to-day." "and we just got to stick..." "Holden!" "They're..." "They're dirty." "They're sweet." "If I could only get my hands on some money." "If someone could just tell me the answer." "I got to do..." "But I never do anything... 'cause I end up thinking about it instead." "I got to do." "But do what..." "Whoa." "What?" "What was that for?" "They looked dirty." "They..." "like..." "I saw a bug in them or something." "I understood your history." "I gave you a job." "I even let you use that name... even though it isn't yours... and I never do that so..." "I'm worried about Holden..." "Tom." "I'm..." "I'm worried about Tom." "I just befriended Tom recently... and now... well..." "I think he's mentally ill." "He's got this idea in his head that we've had some sort of affair... which is crazy... because I'm..." "I'm married..." "And..." "And he said..." "He's been saying all sorts of strange things and making threats... and drinkin'... and... and I just think he would be better off someplace where people... professionals... could take care of him." "I..." "I..." "I..." "He's going to get himself into trouble." "What are you doing in there?" "What's that?" "It's a home pregnancy test." "Why are you taking it?" "Because I still haven't gotten my period." "What's it say?" "I haven't taken it yet." "please?" "Teeny." "OK." "The little plastic doohickey's turning blue." "What's that mean?" "Blue?" "Bright blue." "That means I'm pregnant." "All right!" "I knew it." "Waste of time going to that sperm doctor." "We did it!" "We're going to have ourselves a baby." "Maybe." "Tomorrow... we're going to celebrate at Señor Tuna." "we are." "And I'm going to bring Bubba... or... the Bible-study guy... whoever." "Too bad Gwen's dead." "Phil." "It's a little early to be having a party." "let's do it mellow then." "You sure don't seem too excited." "I'm excited." "It's just... a lot of worries come along with having a baby." "Now don't think negative." "Think positive." "We could have ourselves a tiny Phil... or a tiny Teeny." "Teeny's going to have a teeny-weeny Teeny." "You think anything's going to change... having a baby?" "What do you mean?" "Everything's going to change." "but I mean... do you think anything's really going to change?" "What do you mean?" "Gentlemen?" "Morning." "We found these out in the road." "Belonged to a fellow named of Burt Evans." "Tell us about everything." "Hello?" "Hi." "This is Dr. Williams returning the call ofJean Worther." "I'm calling from the Halin County Psychiatric Hospital." "Tom?" "It was a wrong number." "Either of you seen Holden?" "That boy is out on his ass!" "something's going on." "Something is definitely happening." "go find out." "What?" "What is it?" "What's happening?" "It's big." "What?" "It's very big." "come on." "I'm gonna kill you." "000 from the safe." "Yeah." "They blew the thing open with a gun." "my God." "Not only that... but the cops know who did it." "Who?" "Somebody who works here." "Cheryl!" "Holden..." "Holden did it." "Fool left his cashier key in the door." "my God." "though." "too..." "Took off." "You in on it?" "What?" "!" "No." "I know you two played hooky in the storeroom." "I'll never rat on you." "I done some things myself." "Just tell me..." "you in on it?" "I don't know what you're talking about." "Suit yourself." "Justine... can we talk to you for a second?" "Come in." "Justine." "Go ahead and have a seat." "you like working don't you?" "You like the company... and you like the people?" "You wouldn't want to jeopardize all that by making some silly error in judgment... would you?" "000 from the safe last night." "Did you have anything to do with it?" "No." "I don't know anything." "'Cause we know you're very tight with Holden." "I hardly know him." "I've seen you" "Justine... on many an occasion." "I think you know him pretty well." "I don't know anything." "Justine!" "Justine!" "Justine!" "I did it." "I finally did something." "The police are looking for you." "who cares?" "I'm proud of myself." "Fuck them." "Fuck all of'em." "OK?" "Corny has got a camera in that storage room." "That Bible-thumping pervert has been watching us the whole time." "we're out of here!" "Justine..." "God." "000." "I got a gun." "What else?" "I'm getting all goosey." "I think I'm gonna crash." "Holden." "It's my baby." "Not necessarily." "it is." "You know it is." "Even if it is... you cannot raise a baby on the run." "you can." "you can't raise a baby here." "You know that." "Justine." "You hate your husband." "You hate your job." "let's go." "I can't go tonight." "I gotta pack my things... and I'd have to get more money." "then tomorrow." "and I'll wait for you." "Just be there by noon." "this is just all going too fast." "what do you have to lose?" "Nothing." "then be there by noon." "OK." "Justine." "This is all gonna work out." "I know it." "wait." "I almost forgot." "Here's a story of your life." "You inspired me." "Teeny." "Hey." "Getting worried about you." "I'm sorry." "this is Floberta." "this is Justine." " Hi." " Hi." "Congratulations on your expectation." "Thanks." "you think it's a girl or a boy?" "It don't make no difference as long as it plays quarterback for the Cowboys." "I hear Señor Tuna calling." "Yello." "Yeah." "it's not right." "What is that supposed to mean?" "look..." "No." "you look." "OK?" "Justine's pregnant." "You got that?" "look... pal... then you call me." "Dumb doctor says my sperm's no good." "Does that mean Justine's not pregnant?" "No." "is all." "They don't know everything." "is all." "It looks like that wind's picking up again." "only the devil knows." "Retail Rodeo was at the corner on my left." "The motel was down the road to my right." "I closed my eyes and tried to peer into the future." "I saw days upon days of lipstick and ticking clocks... dirty looks and quiet whisperings." "And burning secrets that just won't ever die away." "what could I picture?" "the desert earth... stretching out into the eerie infinity... never-ending nothing." "Justine." "I know where you can find him." "Holden?" "He's at the Motel Glen Capri... and he'll be there till noon." "You done good." "You're a good girl." "What's going on in the bedroom?" "Looks like a twister hit it." "uh..." "I was doing laundry." "I thought we'd been robbed." "A spokesperson from the sheriff's office will be joining me." "Why aren't you at work?" "They gave me the day off." "This is Ken Rudolph reporting from the Glen Capri Motel where a standoff between police and a local man has just ended in bloodshed." "Police had been given a tip that a man suspected of burglarizing a local Retail Rodeo discount store had been staying at the motel." "had been staying at the motel." "The man was a Retail Rodeo employee named Thomas Worther." "Worther allegedly began brandishing a handgun." "taking his own life." "Inside the motel room... 000 and a handgun... man." "Retail Rodeo..." "You know that guy?" "Thomas Worther was 22 years old." "That is all the information we have at this time." "details are rather sketchy." "We'll continue to monitor the situation a spokesperson from the sheriff's office will be joining me in a few moments with an update." "I can tell you what we know." "Retail Rodeo employees... your store manager." "As most of y'all know by now... we lost another employee yesterday." "Holden was a thief and a disturbed young man... and what happened was a sad thing." "Perhaps we can learn a lesson from this tragedy... like don't steal and don't be disturbed." "The important thing is to move on." "and so should we." "Holden." "I thought we were gonna get a day to grieve and go to the movies." "What?" "What is it?" "and the mail came... and Phil was opening letters." "And he opened this bill from a credit card company." "fuck..." "Justine." "Please." "Please." "I love Phil." "I love him more than myself." "Please have mercy on me." "Phil." "Have you been sleeping around behind my back?" "What?" "have you been sleeping around behind my back?" "Yes." "Why?" "Why?" "I don't know why."

"Yeah." "Do you ever feel like that... like you gotta escape?" "Yeah." "I do." "What are those?" "extra long." "J-Just do it normal for once." "You want me to make the other cheek purple to even it out?" "No." "Did you hear about Corny?" "He was going home after Bible study last night... and 2 beefy guys with painted faces pulled up in a truck and jumped him." "That's terrible." "Yeah." "I read the story" "Holden wrote for me." "It was kind of different from the other ones but kind of the same." "It was about a girl who was put upon... whose job is like a prison and whose life has lost all meaning." "Other people don't get her new places all the time." "especially her husband." "One day she meets a boy who's also put upon... and they fall in love." "After spending their whole lives never getting got... with one look... they get each other completely." "That's my big baby."

"Mmm, spicy." "Who's a pretty girl?" "Huh?" "You're a pretty girl." "You're pretty." "Yes, you are." "Piss off." "I know it's not too good to be all matchy-matchy, but you and your..." "Dusky little bloodbeast are totally at odds with my decor.d your..." "Well, nobody cares what you think about anything." "Shut up." "I'm awful sorry." "No, you're not." "Oh, good girl." "Just ignore him." "He's the cleaning lady." "Psycho fugly thug." "Bill?"

"♪" "♪ I wanna do real bad things With you ♪" "You know him?" "I thought I did." "Why is she here?" "Why is she here?" "She wants to be with me." "Hence the restraints." "She's mine." "Relax." "Nobody wants her." "Certainly not I." "Why is he here?" "Because I have a present for you, sir." "Please." "You're not supposed to bring work home." "Darling, king." "Franklin, you never disappoint." "Shall we retire to the study?" "What is going on here?" "What's wrong with you?" "Yes, Bill." "Your behavior is somewhat erratic." "Help me." "No." "As always, the deposit will go to your trust account." "But I want cash." "Last time you had any real money you ended up at the slots in Biloxi, slaughtering a group of elderly women." "They wouldn't let me have a turn." "Why are you dragging another girl around?" "So sloppy." "I'm tired of cleaning up after you." "This is one is spectacularly different." "Hm." "She's such a fucking disaster." "We could be twins." "The attraction is electric." "Franklin, you're a huge freak." "But I like your work." "Bill Compton is lying to me." "Yes, sir." "Who keeps a dossier on his human?" "Why would he care about her family tree?" "Sophie Anne's overstated perfume is all over this." "That's what I thought." "She's already escaped us once, this barmaid." "Send a wolf, what'd you expect?" "Maybe I should send you back to Bon Temps to acquire Sookie Stackhouse." "I don't have to go anywhere." "She's in Jackson." "I'll let you play your little game of hard to get." "You're gonna be that mh sweeter when you're mine again." "You know, Russell was right." "You're not very smart." "You played yourself into a corner, you tiresome cow." "What happened back there?" "Why were they all shifting?" "You almost shifted." "Couldn't help it." "When that energy starts rolling, it takes you over." "We're lucky we got out of there alive." "Fuck!" "I know it was terrible..." "You don't know anything." "If you don't slow down, you're gonna kill us." "And I am not gonna die because of your shitty girlfriend and a Mississippi pothole!" "I had to be mean to make you listen." "I'm sorry." "She wasn't always shitty." "We were great together." "When she wasn't drinking or cheating." "She used to play horseshoes with my dad, help my mom plant tomatoes." "But tonight she was half-naked in a wolf skin, getting branded." "Tell me more about Russell Edgington." "He's just some rich vampire." "That's all I knew till tonight." "I gotta talk to him." "Are you out of your fucking mind?" "The brand, the blood, the vampire." "He knows where Bill is, or he knows who knows." "I promised Eric I'd keep you out of trouble." "You ain't going near him, Sookie." "This is completely unnecessary." "I told you I come in peace." "Hello." "Have we met?" "Eric Northman, sheriff, Louisiana Area 5." "I've come to see the king." "Talbot, royal consort." "Permit me to facilitate." "Russell!" "Let him go, you idiots." "Thank you." "I humbly request permission to hunt your territory for the vampire missing from my area." "I appreciate your courtesy, Eric." "It's very old-world." "Nobody has manners anymore." "It was all so beautiful once." "Your fugitive, what's his name again?" "Bill Compton." "I'm responsible for him, and, uh, I'm ashamed to admit it, but he's wanted for selling vampire blood." "Oh, no, no." "That's heinous." "Are you sure?" "Let's ask him." "Voilà." "He's not missing, and he's way too square to deal V." "You tried to pin that on me?" "We all know it's your queen behind this, Northman." "And that you did the selling for her." "You see, Mr. Compton has accepted a position in my court and therefore keeps nothing from me." "Oh..." "You're here of your own accord." "Which means..." "Sookie is no longer mine." "Oh." "A king in front of them, a queen behind them, and they're talking about a human girl." "Men." "Your Majesty..." "I confess." "I sold the blood at my queen's command and accused Bill to protect her." "So, what do I do now?" "Unless I give the Magister Compton, he'll murder my progeny." "Darling, so sad." "The Magister is a nasty little..." "Anachronistic toad, a ridiculous remnant of the Middle Ages." "The only power he has over us is the power we give him." "There may be a way to solve all our problems." "Sleep here." "You're more than welcome." "How can I refuse?" "You can't just walk back in here." "Give me my key." "Shut up!" "Don't tell me what to do!" "It's my fucking key, and I'll use it whenever I want!" "You walked out on me." "You got no right." "We'd still be together if you weren't so weak!" "Keep it down." "Don't tell me to keep it down!" "Because I don't give a shit about the neighbors!" "I'm here to save your fucking life." "Liar." "You drug addict." "You sold your soul to a vamp." "I saw you." "He's more than a vamp." "Oh, you ignorant redneck." "If he knew what you saw..." "Fuck him." "I'm warning you..." "If anybody finds out what went on at Lou Pine's..." "That's your neighbor?" "Oh, hell, no." "She got nothing to do with this." "You're fucking my wolf, bitch." "In my house." "Like I did with Coot and Roy and Bobby and Travis." "Like you did with Coot and Roy and Bobby and Travis." "What'd you say to me, whore?" "I'm still strong enough to throw you out, blood or no blood." "No, I'm not sleeping with him." "But you traded this good person who loves you for a shot of V, that burn on your back, and a dumb biker who's half the man and half the wolf that Alcide is." "I will fuck you up!" "I will cut you!" "Sookie, back off." "Where is Bill Compton?" "Who the hell is Bill Compton?" "Do you like your new gown?" "Oh, yes." "I picked it out especially for my lover." "Thank you so much." "Even when I'm away from you," "I can feel your flesh molded to me." "That's how close we are now." "That's really sweet." "I know." "Almost forgot." "You have a text message." ""Bitch, where are you?"" "You said no boyfriends." "Who is he?" "Who's Lafayette?" "I'll rip your throat out." "He's my cousin." "And he's..." "And he's gay." "Oh." "Well, how do I get rid of him?" "How about, um," ""I'm busy, bitch"?" "No, "bitch." He wrote "bitch." Too many "bitches." "Hooker"?" "In his other messages, he calls you "hooker."" ""Hooker." No, "hookah." That's a water pipe." "T-T-Tell him I'm okay." "Say, "Trust me, motherfucker."" "Tr... "Trust me, motherfucker." Brilliant." "Hey, Tara, watch how fast I type "motherfucker."" "It's cool, right?" "Yeah." "A-Amazing." "I'll delete it so you can watch again." "Look." "Look at me." "Love you." "I'm a fan of the regular mulch, myself." "Oh, that's good for everyday, but I love that red mulch." "Yeah." "I use it in all my flowerbeds." "It would look so good by your wishing well." "I don't know." "That seems kind of wild." "Oh." "Morning, Kenya." "Morning, Kevin." "Morning." "Morning." "What you doing here?" "What am I doing?" "I'm here to work." "Really?" "Mm-HM." "Chomping at the bit." "Point me at the crime scene and let's go get her." "Acting Sheriff Andy Bellefleur, would you come out here, please?" "Can it wait?" "I was just going to the restroom." "Morning, boss." "I'm ready for my first day." "I guess this means you find my performance inadequate." "I will if you don't get out there to the corner and cross them little kids to school." "What's going on, Andy?" "Why does Jason Stackhouse need a desk in the Sheriff's Department?" "Nobody else is using it." "What do you care?" "Why don't you run those folders in the conference room over to the courthouse?" "Please, Deputy Jones." "I don't want a desk." "I wanna be out in the field, where it's real." "That's where I shine." "This ain't magic, Jason." "You gotta learn the ropes." "Trust me, I'm pushing you through fast as I can." "Now, Rosie's home with female pains, so for now, you're in charge of the phones." "Can I at least have a uniform?" "Let me get right on that." "Easy." "He's just showing me how strong he is." "Makes me proud." "Yeah." "Hey, watch it." "That's your damn father." "I know exactly who he is." "Oh, it's nothing." "It's a little game they ought to play in private." "He'll make it up to me." "Won't you, boy?" "Maybe you need to talk amongst yourselves, all right?" "Y'all listen to Sam." "He's always got the good ideas." "No." "It's all been said." "Hey, Sam." "Sam." "Hey." "Look at you." "You doing what I think you're doing?" " Yup." "Yes, sir." "Me, Terry Bellefleur..." "I'm moving in with Arlene Fowler." "Ha." "Congratulations." "You're cracking my ribs, buddy." "Hey, hey." "Hey, now, it's gonna be okay." "I mean, sure, it's scary." "She's a little crazy, but so are..." "Is everybody, you know?" "Don't worry." "I ain't worried." "I've never been so not worried." "This is what normal people do, Sam." "They fall in love." "They make each other laugh." "And they move in together." "They raise kids." "They fight over money." "They get old and fat together, and it's normal." "And it's happening to me." "I can't believe it." "Well, I can." "Nobody deserves it more." "Baby?" "I don't feel too good today, okay?" "I ain't cleaned nothing, I ain't cleared nothing out." "I'm the luckiest man in the world." "Coming, honey." "You be careful with that." "Oh, no, no." "We can't be kissing right now." "Just put that in the living room." "Happy for you, Arlene." "Thank you, Sam." "Oh, God." "I never thought it would happen again." "And again." "And again." "And that other time too." "But especially now." "Oh." "Oh, sweet Jesus, I am a hurting gator." "Hey, you know, uh..." "Hey, Joe Lee." "I got these tenants here." "You could be my on-site handyman." "Handyman?" "Oh, I got a list as long as my leg." "Well, if it don't hurt my back." "He'd love to." "Time for work, bro." "Have a great day, Sam." "It's gone too far and it's picking up speed." "I gotta tell the packmaster everything." "Gonna run errands." "Won't take long." "What's a packmaster?" "Goddamn it." "I gotta do what I gotta do." "This is Were business." "It's against all our laws to tell you anything." "I've been listening to dark, private thoughts since I was a little girl." "Keeping secrets is how I survive, Alcide." "No." "Then I'll have to dig it out of your head, and I really don't like to do that." "Pack isn't a democracy." "Most Weres don't have much sense." "You saw." "They're all teeth and fight and sex." "Packmaster's our Alpha." "He makes the big decisions, keeps the rest of us in line." "How much does your packmaster know about last night?" "That's what I have to find out." "Then he'll tell us what to do." "I'm coming along." "I am not breaking any more rules for you." "Then you might as well invite Debbie over to tear me up, 'cause that's what she's gonna try to do." "Work with me, Alcide." "It gets easier." "I'll take the car accident on Euclid." "I'll take the vandalism over at the High School." "What do I do?" "File that for me, will you, babe?" "♪ I got more bills Than I got paid ♪" "♪ Bills keep coming Every day ♪" "♪ I watch my money slip away ♪" "♪ Uh, there's nothing Left to say ♪" "♪ I just keep working Night and day ♪" "♪ I got more bills Than I got paid ♪" "♪ I just keep working Night and day ♪" "Stackhouse!" "You're driving me nuts." "I can't work a desk no more, Andy." "It's sucking the life out of me." "I need a cold case." "I need a special assignment." "I need some fucking thing to do right fucking now or I'll blow up like a M80 and take this whole place with me." "Don't worry." "I'll give you just what you need." "Suck on that thing." "Don't play with it." "There you go." "Now, this here cigarillo is called a Macanudo Ascot." "But my personal favorite, boyfriend, is the Schimmelpenninck panatella." "I don't care what they call it." "It tastes like shit." "Pussy." "Lafayette." "Tommy, can you go inside for me, please?" "I got five more minutes." "Get, please." "How you doing?" "What happened to her?" "Excuse me?" "You ain't got to be gentle, Jesus." "She hated me and I hated her." "Just tell me how she died." "What, your mom?" "Yeah." "Oh, God, man, no, no, no." "Of course you'd think that." "I'm such a...idiot." "I should have told you from the start." "She's good." "She, uh..." "She threw her breakfast in my face yesterday." "Well, th-that's good, I guess." "It's her style, for sure." "So, what are you doing here at Merlotte's?" "Uh..." "I came by to see you." "Somebody been talking to you?" "You heard a conversation with my name in it?" "Because whatever was said, it ain't fucking true." "And you best not tell nobody for your own fucking sake, you feel me?" "Huh?" "Look, man, it's..." "It's my day off." "I just thought that maybe you'd like to go watch a movie or something." "Me?" "Yeah." "You don't want to." "You know what?" "Forget about it." "I don't even know why..." "It's a bad idea anyway." "No, no." "It's just that I-I'm working." "Till when?" "Eleven." "Eleven." "I would go with you, but, um..." "No, I get it." "I'm going inside now." "Okay." "What are you doing?" "I'll hang." "It's only nine hours." "Nothing else to do." "After you." "Oh, Lordy." "Colonel Flood, if these were ordinary Were jkies scoring on the street, I wouldn't be here, but they're organized and drinking from the source." "Sookie was there." "She can back me up." "You'll be disciplined for exposing us to a human, Alcide." "Yes, sir." "It's not his fault." "We only wanted to tell you what we saw." "I already know all about it." "Then you have a plan?" "Whatever it is, I support you, sir, a hundred percent." "Do nothing, tell no one." "How's that help the pack?" "Russell Edgington..." "There's nothing I can do about him." "He's the goddamn vampire king of Mississippi." "Bill." "Colonel Flood, that gang is recruiting." "We can't just sit back and let some f anger pick us off one by one." "Edgington is ancient." "He's had a pack of Weres serving him for centuries all over the world." "Now he's on our doorstep." "We gonna be smart." "Let him do what he wants to do until he goes away." "If he's part of our history, you should have told us about him." "I am saving us from extinction." "I'd rather be extinct than slave to a dead man." "Don't know what else to do." "There's no one to help me." "He'll kill us all." "Maybe I'll just leave town." "I'm scared shitless." "Show no fear." "Don't question your packmaster, boy." "Colonel Flood, we gotta do something." "Let him go." "He can't help." "He's afraid." "Bullshit." "Alcide, obey." "It wasn't bullshit." "I know." "I trust you." "I'll give you what you need." "Goddamn piece of shit." "Son of a bitch." "Now what?" "License and registration." "What for?" "What'd I do?" "We can discuss that further at a point in time according to regulations." "License, registration and your insurance card." "I don't think so." "Oh, you'd better." "I'm a cop." "I don't think you are a cop." "Are you resisting me?" "Because if you are please observe the official police vehicle where I came out of." "Where's your badge?" "Where's your gun?" "Where's your shirt?" "Yeah, all right, all rig." "It's no secret." "I'm a deputy sheriff liaison, which means I'm in training." "But I'll be a cop real soon." "Real soon." "So give me your ID." "Nope." "Please?" "You don't give up, do you?" "No, ma'am, I don't." "Why were you crying the first time I saw you?" "I wasn't crying." "I never cry." "I'm Jason Stackhouse, and I wanna know you." "Yeah." "Uh-huh." "But since you're not gonna write me a ticket, because you're a fake policeman, and I got milk and mayonnaise in the back, well..." "Well, at least tell me your name." "Crystal." "Crystal." "Well..." "A-And your phone number." "No phone." "Everybody has a phone." "I don't." "Meet me tonight at Merlotte's." "Can't do it." "I'll be there, Crystal." "Excuse me, can you hand me them peanuts?" "Thanks." "Hey, how's your first night going?" "I'd rather carry crap than change tires." "Well, that's great." "Hey, looks like it's fixing to be a busy night." "Well, it's always a busy night when you're the only waitress in Merlotte's." "Arlene." "Yes?" "How come you never look me in the eye?" "Which is apparently what you walking dead people like to do." "Hi there." "Welcome to Merlotte's." "I have a very romantic red vinyl booth for the two of you right over there, and..." "And whatever happens..." "Do not tip your waitress." "Do not." "Alrighty, then, let's go." "Not since my daddy So you been here joined AA." "But it sure does feel good to be back, especially with you." "Well, you feel free to order anything that you want." "Doesn't matter how much it costs." "Thank you." "I don't eat much." "I don't wanna get fat like my mama." "At least not until I had a baby or two." "Mm-HM." "I can't wait to have babies." "I'm real excited about it." "I mean, probably in like another two years or so, but..." "What's the matter?" "Um..." "My ex." "I make a mean tuna casserole." "What, him?" "For real?" "He took like he got bombed by radiation on his way to middle school." "That's a giant sixth-grade boy right there." "No, you don't know him." "Get ready for this." "He's really very sweet." "Come on." "He's Little League." "You're a smoking-hot vampire." "You're the majors." "No." "Yeah." "And a "hell, yeah" too." "Hey, Tommy." "Joe Lee." "What?" "Tommy, get your ass home now." "No, I'm not gonna." "I got a job now." "I don't give a shit about no job." "Do what I say when I say it." "You hear me, you little shit?" "Why?" "Tara, why?" "I-I was afraid." "Of me?" "You were afraid of me?" "That's insane." "But you tied me up." "To keep you safe." "Oh, my God, what other reason could there be?" "You have no idea how much you've hurt me." "I feel like I've been staked." "I'm sorry, Franklin." "It's my fault." "My head is all confused." "Can you forgive me?" "It's not you I'm afraid of, it's this place." "All the other vampires..." "They're the ones who scare me." "I'll never let them touch you." "There's only you." "They don't exist." "There's only you." "Hm." "You've circled certain names here." "I wonder why." "You're joking." "Am I?" "I never saw this before you showed it to me." "I don't even know what it is." "Where did it come from?" "Oh, Franklin Mott found that, in your house." "With all due respect, why would you believe him?" "It's my word against his." "Well, exactly." "He's an old friend." "I'd trust him with, uh..." "Your genealogy?" "My..." "My genealogy." "Earl Stackhouse, Sookie Stackhouse." "Oh, those are the circled ones." "I have a theory, Bill." "Do you know what I think?" "No, but I-I'm fascinated." "I think telepathy runs in this family." "I think you've been playing Track the Telepath." "You are trying to discover the origins and the meaning of your human's curious mental condition, because somehow, somewhere, there is a payoff." "It's a theory beautifully built, of air and imagination." "But it has nothing to do with me, sir." "Oh, Bill." "Oh, Bill." "Excuse me, sir, can I talk to you?" "In private?" "Guard!" "Buddy." "Hey, Andy." "I deserve more a welcome than that, the news I got for you." "Sorry, I'm just kind of waiting on somebody." "I pulled every string in my collection on your behalf today." "I'm a deputy?" "Pretty damn close." "They'll wave everything but the physical." "Oh, boy, I'm in." "And the written exam." "Wait, we talked about this." "I can't take no test." "Well, you gotta." "Come on, it's easy." "You just shove all that stuff in your head, write your answers, and forget it all the next day, learn on the job, like everybody else." "Come on, get your head up off the floor." "You'll do great." "Who's the girl?" "Got a new one?" "Don't matter." "She ain't coming." "You gonna break?" "Ha, ha." "No." "You break." "Or I will." "Whatever you want." "Uh-huh." "You drove all this way and waited all day and most of the night so...?" "It was fun." "You know?" "Drinking beers, talking to people." "Watching you do your thing." "My thing?" "That?" "Oh, no." "No, no, that is not my thing." "No." "Still got to look at you." "Did you look at me?" "I can't be looking at folk with all that grease flying around the kitchen." "Right." "But I saw you." "Every now and again." "So we gonna play?" "I'll play." "And I'll break." "I don't want you coming in here running the table, making me look bad." "I don't think that's possible." "Listen at you talking all that bullshit to me." "Hey, Sam." "Yeah?" "Can I stay with you tonight?" "How come?" "You know, uh, brother time." "Okay." "You tell your folks, though." "Yeah, I will." "I mean it." "Yeah, I said I would, and I will." "You're lying, and that puts me right in the middle of the Mickens, which is exactly where I don't wanna be." "Something's going on with you all." "I feel it." "I know it." "What does Joe Lee want from you?" "Nothing." "He's just..." "He's just a prick." "You can talk to me, Tom." "Sure." "You're a little edgy, bat boy." "Get out." "What are you gonna do?" "Tell the king?" "He's off you, bro." "You're on his shit list." "Everybody knows it." "Even his dirty little lapdog." "Mm." "You know what else I hear?" "And this is sexy good news, Bill." "You're gonna love this." "I know I loved it." "Your Bon Temps piece of country ass, your little blond ho is fucking a werewolf right here in Jackson." "Suck that Dick." "Where?" "Where is Sookie?" "Hey." "Thought you stood me up." "I didn't." "I tried to go in there a couple times." "It was..." "It was too, uh..." "This ain't right." "I shouldn't be here." "I..." "I shouldn't be anywhere near you." "Why?" "It's the way it is." "Crystal..." "You don't understand, and I can't explain." "Listen, don't go." "I gotta." "Take a walk with me." "Just a little walk." "You're an outdoor girl." "I'll tell you that for nothing." "You're happy here in the woods." "Maybe so." "I'm that way too." "We got that in common." "Something's happening to us." "Shh." "I don't wanna jinx it." "Those things you can't explain." "I don't care about 'em." "That's what you say now." "No, I'm pretty sure I mean it." "And I just might mean it forever." "There is no forever for us." "It's only now." "Well, that ain't true." "It couldn't be." "It is true." "Now is everything." "Now is perfect." "I've never been happier in my whole life than I am right now with you." "If you don't want me to touch you more, if you want me to stop here..." "I'm gonna have to step away, because I'm..." "I'm all upset." "We got that in common too." "Sir." "Sheriff." "Please accept my apologies." "There's a matter to which I must attend." "Trouble?" "Not really." "More of an experiment." "Perhaps I can be of service." "Huh." "Indulge my boy Talbot, will you?" "Let him give you the full tour." "Makes him positively blithe." "Sir, I have a child of my own in the Magister's bony hands." "If you could help as soon as poss..." "All in good time, Eric." "You." "You." "Boys only." "Show me everything." "Man." "That's a call, right there." "Don't open it." "What do you mean, don't open it?" "Fuck." "You sneaky shifter piece of shit." "Give me back my boy." "Tommy, get over here." "I'll beat you blind." "Breaking down my door?" "Who the hell do you think you are?" "Huh?" "Go home." "I ain't leaving without my son." "He ain't going anywhere with you." "You don't get it, you dumb motherfucker." "I own him, head to tail." "Fuck you, you broke-down bastard." "You don't own shit." "You live in a house I own." "You wanna keep it, get out, before I throw your ass in the parking lot!" "Oh, you don't think I'll do it?" "Huh?" "I'll do it." "I'd love to do it." "Sorry." "I'm liquored up." "I can't even think straight." "He's gotta..." "To learn responsibility." "It'll all be better in the morning." "What the fuck was that?" "What's the matter?" "Who made you cry?" "I'll kill him." "Nobody." "It's only I'm hungry, and they brought me this." "And I can't eat day lilies." "Tell Talbot we don't want his fucking flowers!" "And don't come back!" "She wants to be with me!" "God, you are sexy." "We need to talk." "Don't say that." "Women say that, everything goes black, and I wake up surrounded by body parts." "Baby, no, no, it's okay." "That's not where I'm going at all." "Franklin, I'm into you." "I mean, really into you." "Tara." "Oh, Tara." "T if we're gonna be together, you have to remember that I'm alive." "I have needs, like food." "You're right." "I'm ashamed." "No, baby, it's just a thing." "I'll remind you." "I can do better." "Let me take you somewhere special for dinner." "I would love that." "There's, uh, Shoney's in Vicksburg." "Uh, great." "We'll celebrate your last night as a human." "What?" "I'm proposing." "I'm gonna turn you." "Will you be my vampire bride?" "Ooh..." "And what is this?" "Japanese vampire erotica from the 16th century." "Exquisite detail." "You learn any tricks?" "Eric, you know as well as I there's nothing new except someone new." "Well, it's an eclectic collection." "Oh, you should see what we have in storage." "Russell's a greedy little boy." "He wants what he wants and he takes it." "He's the same way about people." "Watch out." "And this?" "Some random tribal crown." "He must have a hundred of them." "Uh, this one's, uh, Scythian, I think." "Viking." "It's beautiful." "Quite." "Sookie?" "Bill." "Bill." "Sookie..." "You have to go now." "Is that all you have to say to me?" "There's no time." "You must take her away." "Wherever I'm going, you're coming too." "It's too late." "There's no hope for me." "Please, you've gotta get her out of Jackson as fast as you can." "I believe him." "What do you mean, there's no hope?" "You have to leave now." "I will, but tell me what I'm running from." "Come on in." "That's for Debbie, fucker." "Grab the girl, you imbecile." "Uncle Coot is gonna get you." "Yeah." "Maybe not!" "No!" "Fantastic!"

"Emily Copeland, 33, apparent suffocation." "You said there's no signs of forced entry, right?" " No." " What's with the window?" "Fire escape window was open, but no signs of tampering." "And you said her husband called it in?" "Where's he?" "Yeah." "That's him right over there." "He make any statements?" "No, he's a little out of it." "Okay, thank you." "Mr. Copeland, Detective Reagan, this is Detective Baez." "We're very sorry for your loss, sir." "Can you tell us what happened?" "Went to run some errands, and... when I came back the door was ajar." "I walked in and found her with the pillow over her face." "You see or hear anything suspicious?" "I just can't believe how peaceful she looked." "Mr. Copeland, do you know of anyone who would want to harm your wife?" "Anybody make any threats to her?" "It was like she was sleeping." "That's what it looked like." "Your Honor, clearly this is an attempt..." "Please, Ms. Reagan, let's hear what Mr. Weber has to say first." "Thank you, Your Honor." "I fired my lawyer, but I have retained a new one." "Your Honor, if this is an attempt to delay proceedings..." "So sorry I'm a few minutes late, Your Honor." "I was only officially retained this morning." "Well, I admire your ability to hit the ground running." "You'll be requesting a continuance?" "No, Your Honor, I wouldn't want to inconvenience the court any more, or Ms. Reagan-Boyle." "I mean, Ms. Reagan." "A family connection?" "Ex-wife." "I hope that's not a problem." "Well, not for me." "The People have no objections." "Your Honor, I'd like to request a hearing on the admissibility of Dr. Weber's confession." "Your Honor, we're past the pretrial stage, and Dr. Weber's previous attorney chose not to file a motion." "I'll allow it." "We already picked the jury, Your Honor." "The People should be happy we're not pushing this murder trial down the road." "I will hear arguments tomorrow." "We're good." "One more time, let's get a handshake." "Thank you, Councilman." "No, no, just one more." "The commissioner's running late for his next appointment." "Sorry, Steve." "We got to find a better way to get out of the handshake shot." "When politicians stop posting them as endorsements." "And how do I get out of here?" "Just keep walking." "Commissioner Reagan." "May I have a word with you?" "Now's not a good time." "No time like the present." "Unless it's now." "The commissioner is late for his next appointment, sorry." "No, I'm sorry, but my son was killed in your streets!" "This can't be the first time you're hearing this." "His name was Charles Wayne, and he was just 16 and he's not just a statistic to me." "Or to me." "Ms. Wayne, I'm happy to arrange a meeting for you to discuss your issues with the commissioner." "When hell freezes over." "All right, hold on just a second, Garrett." "Why don't you just give me your information?" "My innocent boy as killed on your streets in cold blood." "That's my information." "I'm sorry." "Sorry doesn't cut it." "I know that." "We'll look into it first thing." "He was some rich kid on the Upper East Side, you'd have already looked into it." "Would've man-hunted the killer down." "Let's go, Frank." "My son was murdered, and I'm being removed because the commissioner wants to shut me up?" "!" "Well, I'm not gonna shut up!" "You hear me?" "!" "He's never gonna shut me up!" "Relax!" "According to the doorman," "Mr. Copeland, you were gone from 7:45 to 9:00." "Is that right?" " Sounds right." " And when you came back, the door was open?" "Well, Emily sometimes left it open." "She liked the cross ventilation." "It's a safe building, safe neighborhood." "How was your relationship with your wife, Mr. Copeland?" "What?" "How was my relationship?" "Yeah, were you on the outs?" "Did you have any issues in your marriage?" "No, we weren't on the outs." "We were nuts about each other." "Tell you what, why don't you investigate my wife and our marriage and let me know what you come up with." "And while you're at it, maybe you can spare some time and look for her killer." "We'll do that." "Look, I know what you're thinking." "I don't work for Internal Affairs." "Right." "You're just a field associate for them." "If cops follow the rules, they don't have to worry about IAB, do they?" "Come talk to me when you've had more than five minutes on the job, okay?" "Whoa, what're you doing?" "What do you mean what am I doing?" "I'm starting the car." "Well, we can't go anywhere yet." "What do you mean?" "We have to follow protocol, Officer Patimkin." "Did you check the oil in the car?" "The water and the antifreeze in the radiator?" "The brakes and the windshield wipers?" "Are you kidding me?" "It's clearly stated in the patrol guide, Officer Patimkin." "All part of the driver's checklist." "I was just checking the warning devices." "Looks like they're working okay." "I don't get why you're mad at me." "Therein lies the problem, Jack, your inability to recognize you might be wrong." "What did I do wrong now?" "There's eight and a half million people in this city, and you're representing the one client I'm prosecuting?" "I didn't seek him out." "He sought me out." "And that didn't raise an eyebrow for you?" "Not the most professional move, bringing your underage girlfriend to court." "She is a lawyer." "And, in fact, she graduated Fordham, just like you and I." "Good for her." "And she's not underage." "She's 25." "Great, great." "Thank you for clarifying that." "She's five years older than your daughter." "Unless there's something else, Jack..." "No." "Good." "But you probably want to keep the coat on." "Must get pretty drafty up there on your high horse." "Everything okay?" "No." "Was that..." "Yes." "Guess it didn't go well." "No." "Maybe I should come back later." "What do you need, Anthony?" "I just got a heads-up he's adding a name to the witness list." "Officer Scott Polansky." "The officer that witnessed the confession?" "Yeah." "He's using him to challenge it." "Can you find out why?" "I'm on it." "And, Erin?" "Don't listen to him." "He doesn't know what he's talking about." "Let's call it what it was, an ambush." "Not an ambush if you knew she was coming." "What's that mean?" "It means he vetted the guest list and he knew who she was." "Is that about right?" "That's about right." "And I'm not sure it was necessary to drag her out of there." "And it sure wasn't necessary to talk to her." "You need to let me do my job." "And who is she?" "Shelly Wayne." "She founded a group called." "Mothers United to Fight Violence with a bunch of fellow East New York residents who lost kids, too." "If it helps them help themselves, then great, but a little cooperation with cops might be a better way." "Not a club they asked to join." "Copy that, boss." "Mayor's behind this." "I don't know about that, but I do know" "I saw it coming." "How?" "You get a sense." "They call that profiling now, you know." "And I still call it doing my job, but I don't have the mayor's fingerprints on it." "Well, let's just assume the worst." "Was she charged?" "She was issued a C-summons for disorderly conduct." "And this." "She has a reputation for that." "Getting her 15 minutes of fame." "You know what?" "Let's not do this." "Let's not become what we condemn." "Now, what do you have on her son?" "Charles Wayne, 16, was shot outside the Parksdale Housing Projects," "July 21, 2016, in East New York." "DOA at Mercy." "Case is still open." "And why is it still open?" "It's East New York." "Whoa, slow it down." "What?" "Locked him up last year for possession." "Looks like he's at it again." "Okay, wait, don't just leave me sitting here." "Hey." "Go, go!" "Hey!" "Police!" "Police!" "Stop!" "Move, man!" "Hey!" "Police!" "Ma'am, are you all right?" "Hey." "I got a central 12, Charlie." "Requesting a bus at 211 West End." "Ma'am, stay put, okay?" "I got help coming." "Hands on the hood." "Come on, I didn't do nothing." "Yeah?" "Then why you running?" "You got any weapons on you?" "DeMarcus Green." "That's a whole lot of nothing you got here, DeMarcus." "You're under arrest for criminal sale and criminal possession of a controlled substance." "Just so we're clear, this is my collar." "Yeah?" "Here's your collar." "Aah!" "Aah!" "These cuffs are too tight, man." "Police brutality!" "All right, shut, shut up." "Police brutality!" "Put him in." "I'm gonna go back and check on the lady that he knocked down." "Hey!" "I'll be right back." "You stay with the prisoner." "Anybody see this, help me." "Man, come on, man." "Excuse me." "Talking to me?" "You didn't pick up its mess." "Are you kidding me?" "Who are you, the doggie police?" "It's a $250 fine." "But, Miss..." "Yeah, and if you keep arguing, I'll make it disorderly conduct." " Patimkin." " What?" "Can I talk to you for a second?" "Stay where you are." "What is it?" "Where's DeMarcus?" "My God, I just left him alone for a second." "To enforce a pooper scooper law?" "Let's go, get in the car." "Let's go, get in the car!" "The only prints from the scene were from Emily, Brian and their son." "So maybe the killer wore gloves." "M.E. say there was any DNA on the Vic?" "No." "Excuse me, are you Detectives Reagan and Baez?" "Yes, ma'am." "I'm Emily Copeland's mom." "Um..." "Why don't you have a seat here?" "Please." "No, that's all right." "Thank you." "We're very sorry for your loss." "My loss." "I always found that an odd thing to say." "A loss implies there's a chance you'll eventually find what's missing." "My grandson's only four years old, and he's going to have to grow up without a mother." "And with a father who's a murderer." "Are you telling us that your son-in-law murdered your daughter?" "Emily was very upset lately." "Upset how?" "Brian had quit his job." "He wanted to open a restaurant." "Like there aren't enough of those in New York City." "Emily supported him, but it was causing a big strain on the marriage." "In what way?" "About a week ago, Emily came to me and asked if I would care for Robert, my grandson... if-if something were to happen to her." "If I would help raise him." "She give any explanation as to why she'd be asking?" "She was only 33." "Why would she be talking about dying if she didn't think somebody was trying to kill her?" "That's why it's called the murder capital of New York." "For your 2:00." "When I started on the job, there were 109 murders a year in East New York." "We had 18 last year." "That's progress." "Not so much for the 18." "Right." "Anyway," "I talked to the detective investigating the son's murder." "Charles Wayne was shot by the Double Treys." "And not an arrest?" "No." "It was a drive-by." "Random." "That's the thing." "Charles was being initiated into the Kings at the time of his murder." "Okay." "So, not so innocent an innocent bystander." "It's still a mother and her son." "And it's East New York, so we're not gonna get spit from the community." "I want a sit-down with Shelly Wayne." "To what purpose?" "To disavow her belief that her son was completely innocent?" "Got to say, boss, I agree with Garrett." "She'll just take advantage, use it to get more publicity." "She is gonna have to hear the truth, that her son was part of a gang." "You want to do that, Garrett?" "Sid?" "Set it up." "You realize the heap of trouble that you're in?" "And me now, too?" "I'm sorry." "You got DeMarcus' wallet?" "We'll probably both get suspended thanks to you." ""1512 West 116th Street"..." "Should we go see if he's there?" "Well, we're supposed to just call it in." "Yeah, but if we find him, then no harm no foul, right?" "I get it." "We don't have to go by the book when it's your skin on the line?" "Come on." "I ran Emily Copeland through NICB." "She and Brian took out a life insurance policy three months ago." "Both of them?" "For how much?" "A million dollars." "Enough to, say, start a restaurant." "Come on." "That gives us motive, but something still doesn't add up for me." "All I know is the last time the suspect told the cops to find the real killer, it ended in a Bronco chase." "Yeah, but she didn't look like she put up a fight." "Maybe she was sleeping." "People tend to wake up when they're being smothered." "Maybe she was drugged." "Did the M.E. come back with the autopsy yet?" "She started two hours ago." "Okay." "Well, then, maybe the dead can settle this." "Forget it, Reagan." "Our tour's over." "Let's just call it in." "No, there's one more place." "That's him." "Hey, DeMarcus." "Is that marijuana that you're smoking?" "Dude, there isn't even enough for a misdemeanor." "These things are killing me." "Can you get them off?" "Yeah, when we get to holding." "Objection, Your Honor." "We've established that the detective that took the confession administered the Miranda rights." "But the question isn't whether or not he read them, but when." "I'll allow it." "You can answer the question, Officer." "He read them after Weber confessed." "But that's because Dr. Weber confessed..." "That's all, no more questions." "Officer Polansky, why were the Miranda rights administered after the confession?" "Weber confessed so fast, before we had a chance to read him his rights, and once he started, we didn't want to stop the confession in order to read the Miranda Rights." "The reason why is irrelevant, Your Honor." "I move to have the confession thrown out." "Your Honor, spontan..." "Ms. Reagan, while I sympathize with your efforts," "I must side with the defense." "The ends can't justify the means." "The confession will not be allowed." "Now, I suggest both sides attempt to reach a plea agreement." "We'll reconvene at 1:00." "You're late." "Actually, I was in on time, but I wanted to get a jump on the patrol checklist." "So the oil and water and windshield wipers and tires and sirens and lights have all been checked and are working at optimal capacity." "Great." "My brother's a heroin addict." "He's been arrested numerous times for drug possession, possession with intent to sell, assault and burglary so that he could steal even more money so he could buy even more drugs." "I'm sorry." "I lied on my application to the NYPD." "I didn't write down that my brother was a junkie or that my mom has been arrested too many times to count for driving while intoxicated." "I didn't put it down because..." "I didn't put it down because all I ever wanted to be was a cop." "But when I was halfway through the academy, they found out that I had omitted my family's arrest history." "And IAB was called." "Internal Affairs said that they would overlook my error if I worked as a field associate with them for six months." "Why are you telling me this?" "Just wanted you to know why I cooperated with IAB." "I'm Jack Boyle." "Yeah." "I know who you are." "Please, sit." "Can I just say," "I had Professor Black for Criminal Law." "He'd always tell us how you rose through the ranks of the D.A.'s office to become a bureau chief." "You're, like, a legend." "Well, please say hi to him next time you go back." "He's dead." "I mean, well, he was ancient when I had him." "Well, let's just get right down to it." "Offering Man 1. 15 years." "You don't have a confession." "Criminally negligent homicide." "One to three years." "We have a murder weapon that was found in your client's trash." "Man 2." "Five to 15." "We'll pass." "You're not even gonna bring it to your client?" "My client informed me that he will not take a plea he's so sure we're gonna win." "Then what are we doing here, Jack?" "Old times' sake?" "See you in court." "Dr. Weber and I were having an affair." "My husband threatened." "Dr. Weber, told him he was going to kill him." "And how did Dr. Weber respond?" "Dr. Weber said," ""Not if I kill you first."" "Thank you." "No more questions." "Did you have other affairs, besides the one with Dr. Weber?" "Objection." "Relevance." "Ms. Boyle..." "I mean Ms. Reagan brought up the affair as motive." "I have an alternative one." "I'll allow." "You may answer the question." "I had two previous affairs." "Because my husband and I had an open marriage." "Meaning?" "We both believe that monogamy is an unnatural expectation." "Relevance, Your Honor." "I understand..." "Are you going somewhere with this, Mr. Boyle?" "Indeed I am, Your Honor." "Was your husband also having an affair?" "Yes, he was." "So... his lover could've killed him." "Objection." "Speculation." "The jury will disregard the last remark from Mr. Boyle." "No more questions." "Ms. Manis, I have a question." "Why do you think your husband threatened to kill Dr. Weber when he found out about your affair?" "Because love can be unpredictable." "You know, always amazes me how small the human heart actually is." "Eight to ten ounces for a woman, ten to 12 for a guy." "Men have bigger hearts?" "That's debatable." "But, technically, yes." "You know, those extra few ounces we have is what always gets us in trouble with you guys." "What can you tell us about Emily Copeland?" "Her cause of death was suffocation." "My guess, a pillow was placed over her face and held there for about three minutes." "You find anything under her fingernails?" "I wish." "No DNA for you." "No hair or skin, other than the victim's." "No defense wounds?" "Isn't that unusual, you know, in a suffocation..." "No defense wounds?" "What's more unusual isn't that she was suffocated but that she would've been dead anyway." "Within a month." "Why?" "She had late-stage pancreatic cancer." "I know my rights." "I want to know what this is about." "The judge said I was free to go." "I told you my case was dismissed." "So why am I being..." "Please, just step this way." "Not until I find out why I'm here." "Please sit down." "I don't understand." "My charges were dismissed." "I'm aware." "You got the charges dropped." "Yes." "But that doesn't buy me shutting up." "Wasn't meant to." "Please?" "I looked into your son's murder." "He was killed in a turf war between the Double Treys and the Warrior Kings." "Well, who did it?" "A 15-year-old member of the Double Treys." "Why?" "Why Charles?" "Did he know my boy?" "I don't have that information." "Does it matter?" "In that he took a life that he didn't mean to, so there's another piece of misery out there?" "You can look at it that way;" "I can't." "I can try." "They may be numbers to you, but they're all people to me." "Nobody's just a number." "A black teenager in East New York?" "I know his name, who he was, who his mother is, so please stop it." "You have no idea what it's like to lose a child." "You throw your weight around and you get someone to name who killed my boy and now you get to go back to your office and feel good about yourself?" "Nothing about this makes me feel good." "When Charles was killed I started a group." "I'm aware." "We have 55 members so far." "All mothers who have lost their children to violence." "We have vigils and marches and rallies, and guess who's never there at any of these events." "Your cops." "So, who died?" "33-year-old woman with a four-year-old kid." "40-year-old dermatologist from the Upper West Side." "And a 16-year-old in East New York." "I didn't mean it literally." "You just forgot who was at the table." "Okay." "Sorry." "A great partnership." "You and Eddie?" "Yeah, Sarge switched us up." "Now he's got me riding with an IAB snitch." "That's a real waste of IA manpower, don't you think?" "What's that supposed to mean?" "Well, their snitch is riding around with, you know, Dudley Do-Right." "How is it you can make even my being a good cop into a bad thing?" "I didn't say it was a bad thing." "Well, you'll be happy to know that they switched us up for punking another pair of partners." "I'll be happy to know?" "Well, no, not you." "Just forgot who was at the table." "16-year-old, how?" "Gunshot." "Question's why." "All right, why?" "Kid's poor, bored, and armed." "And in East New York." "Still a war zone?" "Well, it's much better than it was when I was there ten years ago." "But it's still East New York." "Define "better."" "Well, less terrible." "That's a pretty low bar." "Not compared to 40 years ago." "If you lost someone, "better" isn't good enough." "So what do you tell them?" "That is a good question with no good answer." "Sometimes it's best not to tell 'em anything and just listen instead." "Can't you just send more cops there?" "Wish it were that simple." "People move to change the subject." "Seconded." "Thirded." "You guys have something more fun to talk about than life or death?" "What'd you expect, given who's at the table?" "Okay, so... go." "Mom's case?" "Dad's across the aisle on the defense." "I was not thinking that." "Slick Jack?" "Really?" "Wow." "How's that going for you?" "He's dating his co-counsel." "She's 25." "Nicky, zip it." "Is she hot?" "What?" "Okay, how about we go back to East New York?" "Wait, wait, wait, wait, what is she like?" "No way." "25, really?" "Thanks, Nicky." "So, is she?" "Is she what?" "Hot." "In a cheap sort of way, I suppose." "And charmed by Jack, I'm sure." "Jack can still talk the green off a leaf," "I'll give him that." "Well, Jack's always gonna be one of those guys who thinks the grass is greener." "Well, now the grass is 20 years younger." "Ouch." "Do you remember Aunt Agnes and Aunt Ruth?" "Yeah, you used to drag us to Bushwick to see them every month." "Yeah." "And neither one of them ever got married, even once." "So I got them beat?" "No." "Are you calling me a spinster aunt?" "Every family like ours has one." "Well, my money's on Jamie." "No such thing as a spinster uncle." "That's a double standard, Dad." "Erin... you need to move on." "Yeah, well," "I can't right now." "I have to deal with him." "Not the kind of moving on I'm talking about." "I know." "But this comes first and foremost." "You turned down a plea." "He wanted three years." "It was a fire sale." "As opposed to zero if you lose." "I'd bet on me, Dad." "Ask you this." "If Jack wasn't on the case, would you have taken the plea?" "I guess we'll never know." "So it looks like Brian took out the insurance policy after his wife was diagnosed with the cancer." "Okay, but the thing is, though, if he took out the policy, why would he risk killing her when she would've died naturally in a few weeks anyway?" "Maybe he was anxious to get started." "Well, I'm banking on that 12-ounce heart factoring into this equation at some point." "Since when?" "You're usually the cynical one." "Well, we're just missing something." "Yeah, a confession." "I think I know how to get one." "You want me to question Manis' mistress, see if she and her husband have alibis?" "It wouldn't hurt." "I mean, we know who killed Manis." "At least we have the knife." "What is taking so long?" "Hey, we got court, pal." "You want to step it up, here?" "So, how come you and Jack broke up?" "Irreconcilable differences." "I got irreconcilable differences with every woman I ever date." "Isn't that what keeps it interesting?" "Got the evidence?" "It's not here." "What do you mean it's not here?" "It's gone." "How can it be gone?" "It's the evidence in a murder investigation." "It's not where it's supposed to be." "Then check where it's not supposed to be." "I did." "It's not there either." "How can the evidence go missing?" "Well, maybe you removed it for a hearing." "We did not remove it." "What do you want me to tell you?" "You're lucky this cage is separating us, that's what." "From what I understand, pancreatic cancer..." "It's the least detectable until it's too late, so you must have felt completely helpless when your wife got her diagnosis." "And then, I would assume, after you got the diagnosis, that's when you went out and got the life insurance policy." "It's not unusual to have a life insurance policy." "Absolutely not." "I mean, it's a little unusual when you get one six months before your 33-year-old wife is murdered under suspicious circumstances." "But that's neither here not there." "Why don't you just say what you want to say?" "Brian, I..." "I'm not saying anything." "And I certainly don't think you're a murderer." "Now, your mother-in-law may, and you did buy that life insurance policy, but I don't." "I think I might need a lawyer." "Just told you I believe you, Brian." "I don't think you did it." "One second." "Really?" "I told you." "I knew you were a good guy." "You're not gonna need a lawyer after all." "How's that?" "We got the guy." "What are you talking about?" "We got the guy who killed Emily." "He's sitting right there, next to my desk." "This guy's a career criminal." "He's already hit six buildings in the area." "We got him on video going into your building around the time of Emily's murder." "He's got no alibi." "That can't be." "It can be." "The D.A.'s charging him with manslaughter in the first degree." "That son of a bitch is looking at 25 to life, easy." "No, you can't charge him." "Gonna charge him?" "We already are." "And guess what, Brian." "You've been through enough, you are free to go." "No!" "What?" "He didn't do it." "Sit down." "Your Honor, the People would like to request a continuance." "On what grounds?" "Your Honor, through no fault of our own, the evidence in this case is missing from the property clerk's office." "How does evidence go missing, Ms. Reagan?" "We are looking into that, Your Honor." "We'd like to move for this case to be dismissed." "Your Honor, the People request a 24-hour continuance." "Do the People have anything else that links the defendant to the crime?" "Fingerprints?" "An eyewitness?" "No, but the weapon..." "Ms. Reagan, we have a jury that we've been inconveniencing for two days." "I'm dismissing the case." "With prejudice, Your Honor?" "Your Honor..." "Dismissed... with prejudice." "You almost done with that 61?" "Just dotting the Is and crossing the Ts." "Reagan... that info DeMarcus gave you panned out." "Narcotics is executing that warrant tonight, if you want to join." "I'm only interested if my partner can come." "She's in bed with IAB, you know." "We arrested DeMarcus together." "Suit yourself." "Then, um, both of you ready to roll, 1900 hours." "What?" "I thought you didn't like me." "It's not that I didn't like you." "It's that I didn't trust you." "But now you do... trust me?" "Nah." "It's just, you're so good at checking the oil in the car." "How you doing, Mr. Copeland?" "My lawyer advised me..." "Not to speak to anyone." "He's right." "So, I'll talk, and you listen, okay?" "Toxicology report came back yesterday." "They found secobarbital in your wife's system." "The M.E. said that secobarbital is used to treat insomnia, or as a sedative before surgery." "So?" "So," "I found the bottle of secobarbital in your medicine cabinet." "Interesting." "You know, it's... prescribed by a doctor in Vermont." "I thought to myself, why would a couple from New York go all the way to Vermont to get a prescription?" "Couldn't figure it out, so I called the doctor myself." "He told me that secobarbital is also used in physician-assisted suicide, which is legal in Vermont, but, unfortunately, it's not legal in New York." "I can't do this." "He also told me you called him the day your wife was murdered." "She wanted to die on her own terms." "She didn't want to drag it out." "And the doc agreed." "But when she took it, it didn't work." "I called the doctor, panicked." "He apologized, said that it's an inexact science, that he didn't prescribe the right amount." "And then Emily turned to me, and she knew the drug would knock her out." "But... it wouldn't be enough to kill her." "So she asked you to smother her while she was unconscious, right?" "I didn't want to." "I really didn't want to, but I didn't want to see her in any more pain." "I did what she asked." "I loved her." "She let go so peacefully, just the way she wanted." "And I don't care what happens to me." "I have no regrets." "Nor should you." "Hi." "Congratulations." "I'm sorry." "For what?" "I'm sorry you lost your case." "I'm sorry I accused you of being judgmental." "You're right." "I'm..." "I am judgmental." "And I'm sorry you were forced to deal with Mandy." "Mandy." "Are you kidding?" "Her name rhymes with..." "Candy." "I know." "I'm sorry about that, too." "Where is she, anyway?" "Speaking at a Women in Law symposium geared to first-years." "Beautiful and smart." "Are you done apologizing?" "I think so, unless there's something I'm not thinking of." "Anyway, Mandy and I are..." "We're not going out anymore." "What happened?" "We went out to eat, and the waiter thought she was my daughter." "That... that, and she ordered Bay Breezes." "We used to drink Bay Breezes." "We were 19." "Wow." "I've known you that long?" "Unfortunately, yes." "Want to go out and get a bite to eat?" "No." "I mean, no, thank you." "I'm meeting Danny at O'Malleys." "I'd invite you, but..." "He'd rather use my face as a dartboard." "Something like that." "I don't get this with anyone else." "What, the verbal abuse?" "This." "You." "You're funny and smart." "Not smart enough to put a vicious killer behind bars." "You ever consider you might be wrong about Weber?" "And me?" "No." "Good night, Jack." "Thank you." "You're welcome." "Hey, right on time." "Ordered beers, and the wings coming right up." "Good, because I am drinking to forget tonight." "You lost?" "Yup." "Murderer got off Scot-free, and the judge dismissed it with prejudice, so I can't retry." "Great Jack Boyle strikes again." "My witness testified that she was in an open marriage because monogamy is unnatural." "What's unnatural are yo-yos like Jack running around in a perpetual state of adolescence." "You and Dad hated Jack the moment you met him." "I don't know why I never saw that." "Love, like justice, is blind." "And marriage is an eye-opener?" "Don't go there, please." "I don't know what's worse..." "Your situation or mine." "My guy's looking at 15 years for mercy-killing his wife who was gonna die in a month anyway." "Part of me wishes I'd never figured out it was him." "Well, I spoke to the D.A." "They're gonna plead down to criminally negligent homicide." "He won't do the max." "Well, that's something." "Thank you." "Ms. Reagan?" "I didn't mean to startle you." "I just saw you head this way after court." "Who is he?" "Who are you?" "I just wanted you to know that you were right." "He was very weak." "I barely broke a sweat." "Enjoy your drinks." "He's the guy?" "Hey!" "Danny." "Hey!" "Danny." "Other people get to say about their kids," ""They grow up so fast."" "We don't." "But today I'm gonna, because I want to." "Charles... he did, he grew up so fast." "He was but nine when he announced he didn't believe in Santa Claus anymore." "Now, we spent Christmas out at my dad's in the Pennsylvania woods." "We had a tree and a fireplace, so a chimney for Santa to come out of." "So that Christmas Eve," "I got a pair of my dad's boots..." "Big feet, my dad..." "And I dipped them in the ashes in the fireplace and made tracks going to the tree with the presents and back to the fireplace, like Santa tracked ash all over the floor." "Welcome." "Thank you." "Anyway, Charles..." "He bought it lock, stock and barrel, and we got a good two more years of believing in Santa after that." "And that's what I'm thinking about tonight."

"I don't care about this job any more." "Cigarettes are bad!" "Mr Griffin is right!" "Smoking is a horrible vice!" "It shortens life expectancy and pollutes our air."

"Did they make the trade?" " Jack's safe." "He's no longer a hostage." "is he on his way?" " We don't know where he is." " What?" "He called in to tell us he was OK, but he didn't say anything else." " Why not?" " Drazen wants him to do something else." "That doesn't make any sense." "Why would he do anything for that man?" " l think it's to protect Kim." " What are you talking about?" "Teri, the reason that Kim isn't back..." " Oh, no, no, no." " Just listen to me." "We think that's where Jack is now." "He's trying to bring Kim back." "He's not communicating with us..." "to protect her." "I'm sorry." "The task we have given your father is a simple one." "And if he does it... will you let me go?" "We will see." " Jack, I just got your message." " Senator, I need to see you right away." " Your office said you might be coming." " l am coming there." " Why?" " l have a message from Victor Drazen." "They also said that Drazen has your daughter, and you could be a threat." "They've added to my security." "Secret Service has been instructed not to let you near me." "They do have my daughter, but I'm not coming there to harm you in any way." " What does Drazen want you to do?" " He wants to speak to you at 10.45." "It's a scrambled phone so that it can't be traced." " What does he want to talk about?" " Money. I'll explain when I get there." "Just tell your people to let me through." "Drazen's people, who are holding your daughter hostage, want me dead." "You're asking a lot, Jack." "They had my wife and daughter today, and I still managed to save your life." "I'm not coming there to harm you in any way." "I give you my word, sir." "Hi." "Anyone see you come up?" "No, I was careful." "Why don't you sit down?" "Well, how much time do we have?" "Don't worry about that." "I have something I wanna tell you, Patty." "Yes?" "You're fired." "Pack up." "Get out." "And don't bother to ask me or anyone else on my staff for a reference." "Prospective employers won't like what I have to say." " l don't understand." " l know what you're doing." "You're working with my wife against me." "Senator, I'm sorry." "I didn't mean to deceive you like this." "But your wife insisted and I didn't know what to say." " "No" would have done it." " l know, I know. I should have." " lt's just that... she can be scary sometimes." " So can I." "Obviously I have made a terrible mistake in judgment, and if there's anything I can do... I want you out of this hotel in 30 minutes." "You gotta take a look at this." "These six people have accessed the detention-facility archives." "The first five were just doing scheduled backups." "Here's the sixth." "George?" "George is the mole?" "It's possible." "He accessed that file four days ago." "Why would he have done that if he wasn't involved?" " You gotta call Chapelle." " No, shut down his network access." "You can't let anything go in or out." "OK. I just gotta figure out how I'm gonna do it." " Where were you?" " Downstairs." " Downstairs?" " Yeah." "In room 907... with Patty." "What?" "Save your energy, Sherry." "No need to act surprised." "I fired her." "You know your problem, David?" "You think everyone's conspiring against you, when in fact we're just trying to help." "By putting another woman in my bed?" "Do you realise how sick that is?" "Oh, come on." "We chose a certain life, and we chose that a long time ago." "It's not about a house in the suburbs and PTA meetings." "And whether you're willing to accept it or not, we serve a higher purpose." "You are not qualified to talk about higher purposes." " Oh, I'm not?" " No, you're not." "We are about to move into the White House." "That's right." "We." "You and I." "And all the issues, all the politics, all the hard work that's gonna help get us there... I'm as much a part of that as you." "So don't even try to deny it." "Please, Sherry... don't go there." "I'm not begrudging a single thing, David." "I don't need the limelight." " You sent her to spy on me!" " That's right!" "And do you wanna know why?" " Yes, I do." " Because you need me to look out for you." "And if you cut me out of your inner circle, like you threatened earlier today, you will fail." "In every way." "You need me, David." " (knock on door)" " What?" " Jack Bauer just arrived, sir." " l'll be out in a moment." "We're not done here." " Jack." " Senator." "Convincing Secret Service to let you come up to see me was difficult enough." " They won't let me out of their sight." " That's fine." "All that matters is that you talk to Victor Drazen when he calls, listen to his demands and cooperate." "How did they get your daughter?" "Senator, we don't have much time." "He could call any second." " OK, you said this was about money?" " Yes." "$200 million of his was frozen after he was abducted." " And?" " He wants it." "He says you have the clearance to get it back." "He'll give you instructions when he calls." "That's why he sent you?" "To get me to release his funds?" "Once he has confirmation of the transfer, he'll ask me to take action against you." " To kill me?" " Yes." "Of course, I would never do you any harm." "He has my daughter. I'm trying to buy time." "Jack, I don't have the authority to transfer those funds, and Drazen knows that." " What do you mean?" " He knows our system." "That money's gone." "I don't think that's the reason he's calling." "(phone rings)" "Senator, please, answer this phone." "OK, Jack. I'll do what I can." "I'll tell him what he wants to hear." " l can't guarantee he'll buy it." " Thank you." " This is David Palmer." " Senator Palmer." "It must be nice being reunited with your friend Jack Bauer." " What do you want?" " (electronic whine)" "Drazen?" "Drazen?" "He knows you can't get the money." "Senator..." "No!" "(static on phone)" "Are you all right, sir?" "A detonation of this magnitude had to be military plastique." " Get a powder residue." "We'll try and trace it." " Yes, sir." " Where is he?" "David!" " Ma'am, this area's not..." "Let her through. lt's OK." "Calm down." " Where's Keith and Nicole?" " At the party." "Are you all right?" " l'm fine." " Oh, God." "Senator." "This is Jack Bauer from CTU, the man who saved my life twice today." " Mrs Palmer." " The man that put your life in danger?" " Sherry, please!" " (radio) Status report on the senator?" "Don't answer that yet." "Senator, we need to talk about this." "My daughter..." "Tell them you don't know yet." "This is Ron." "We don't have a 20 on the senator yet." "What's going on?" "The man that planned this explosion needs to believe that it was a success." "Wait a minute." "You mean, you want the world to think that David is dead?" " Yes, ma'am." " Absolutely not." "David, what's this all about?" "His daughter is being held hostage." "But we can't have people thinking David was assassinated. lt's preposterous!" " lf we don't, ma'am, my daughter will die." " Then what do you suggest we do, Mr Bauer?" "We keep the senator quarantined for a few hours." "We leak a story to the press that he was killed in the explosion." " You've got to be kidding." " l've never been more serious in my life." " No, it's not gonna happen." "David, tell him." " This is about the life of an innocent girl." "David, we cannot keep playing games with the public and expect to keep their trust." "Senator, if we're gonna do this, we need to do this now." "Go downstairs." "Bring the children up." "Talk to no one. I mean it." "I need all the agents that have seen the senator." " Who is your senior chief of staff?" " Mike Novick." "Bring in Mr Novick as well." "As soon as Mr Palmer's family gets here, no one is to enter or exit this area." "Understood?" "Now, Sherry!" " l'm very sorry." " Don't worry about it." " Are you sure this is gonna work?" " lt has to." "Hey, Almeida." "What's going on with my network access?" " What do you mean?" " l can't access archives or Palmer's itinerary." " l'll call its." " l don't have time for that." "Are you up?" " Yeah, I think so." " Let's see." "Yeah, here it is." "So Palmer's still going to Dallas tomorrow." "Call Secret Service and find out what time his plane leaves." " Division's got it covered. I don't think..." " Hey, real simple." "Call Secret Service." "Find out what time his plane leaves." "And get my network up and running." "(phone rings)" " What happened?" " Well, he found out he's cut off." "And he seems overly interested in what happens to Palmer after he leaves LA." " We should alert Chapelle." " No, not yet." "If we go to Chapelle without evidence, he'll slice us up." " What about his access?" " l'm gonna have to restore it." "All right, but monitor everything and send it to me." "Put it up on all the monitors!" "Everybody, eyes on monitors." "(TV) Events are unfolding by the minute in this tragic and stunning development." "The hotel has been sealed off." "Only a limited number ofpersonnel are allowed inside." "We have heard from a spokesperson from the Palmer camp, who hasjust confirmed that Senator David Palmer has been killed in an explosion." "There is speculation this is related to this morning's assassination attempt, but at this time no one has been arrested." "We did it, father." "We did it." "Ah, yes." "All right. I'll take care of the girl, then we can leave." "Do not do anything until we know that Jack Bauer is dead." "Do nothing." "(phone rings)" "Sir, we just contacted Mike Novick." "He's on his way." "Agent Bauer, it's for you." "Thank you." " Yeah?" " (Andre) You're a very lucky man, Mr Bauer." "I was calling to confirm your death, but I see you've survived." "Andre." "I have an offer to make you." "You've killed Senator Palmer." "I'm the last person on your list." "I'll make you a trade: me for my daughter." "Come to Port of Los Angeles." "Dock 11A." "What assurances do I have that you'll let her go when I arrive?" "Sadly, none." "But we've decided the sins of the father need not be visited upon her." "Port of Los Angeles." "Dock 11A." "I'll be there in 30 minutes." "And, Jack, if you bring your colleagues or involve them in any way, we'll know." "I understand." "I have to go alone." " Good luck." " Thank you, sir." "Why are you doing this to us?" "Yeah, Jack, I can tell him, but you should really let us help you on this." "No, I can't, notyet." "Give us a general position, so we can be nearby." "No. lfDrazen's got someone else working on the inside, it could put Kim in danger." "All right." " Let me speak to Teri." " OK." "It's Jack." " Jack?" " How are you holdin' up?" " Where are you?" "Do you know about Kim?" " Yes. I'm on my way to pick her up." "She's fine." " Where is she?" " l can't say now, sweetheart." "But I promise you, soon she's going to be with you." "Thank God." "What do you mean "she"?" "What about you?" " l'm sorry. I meant to say both of us." " Oh, good." "I just don't think I can take much more of this." "I need you both here, Jack." "I know, sweetheart." "Look, it's almost over." "Just hang in there, OK?" "OK." " Teri?" " What?" " l love you." " l love you too, Jack." "Honey, um..." "There's something I have to tell you." " l've been waiting for the right time." " What is it?" "You're gonna be a father." "Again." "What are you saying, that you're pregnant?" "Well, yes, that's generally how it works, Jack." " Jack?" " l'm still here." "I'm sorry, it was the last thing I thought you were gonna say." "Are you all right with this?" "Are you happy about this?" "Oh, yes. I am." "I keep thinking that... maybe it's the second chance we've been talking about." "Are you there?" " Yeah, I'm still here." " Are you happy about it?" "Yes." "Yes, I'm happy about it." "I'm very, very happy." "Good." "Are you sure everything's OK?" "Yeah." "Sweetheart..." "I promise you everything is gonna be OK." "It's just been a really, really long day." "Just get on back here so we can all go home, OK?" "OK." "Teri..." "I love you so much." "I love you too, Jack. I'll see you soon." "I had a sister once." "She was full of life..." "like you." "She was a photographer and took hundreds of pictures." "I used to love looking at them." "Now I can't do that any more." "You know how she died?" "Has anyone told you?" "Your father killed her." " My father would never kill innocent people." " You wanted to know." " l don't believe you." " Oh, he says it was an accident." "But when a man goes halfway round the world to set off a bomb, he's responsible for any "accidents" that result." "Has your father ever talked about his work?" "About where he goes..." "on those long trips overseas?" "Of course not." " He can't." " Because he's a criminal." "My father is a good man." "No." "He's not." "Palmer's still alive." "The suite at his hotel blew up, but apparently he got out unscathed." " Why the reports?" " l haven't been debriefed, but I guess it makes sense as a defensive strategy." "Palmer's safe as long as the hitters think he's dead." "This goes no further than the three of us until the public's made aware that he survived." " What about the perpetrators?" " lt's unclear." "Our intel is being refreshed by Secret Service as we speak." "So, stay at your stations." "Start rebuilding profiles based on the incoming information and we'll have a new plan in place within the hour." "Have you spoken to Jack since the first time he called?" "Not me." "It doesn't matter." "This'll all be over soon anyway." " Have you talked to Jack?" " Yeah, he called, but he won't let us help him." "It's kind of cold." "Do you mind if I have some coffee?" "Aaargh!" "(shouting in Serbian)" "(speaks Serbian)" "(Andre) Stop right there, Kim!" "Don't move!" "Don't be foolish!" "You'll drown!" "(speaks Serbian)" "How are we going to do this without the girl?" "Bauer has no choice but to trust us." "(phone rings)" "(in Serbian)" "Oh, there you are." "We just got some new intel from Langley." " Oh, good." " Yeah, take a look at this." "Visiontext Subtitles:" "David Van-Cauter" "english SDH"

"My name is Bjornson, Anders Bjornson." "I'm a journalist with the local newspaper." "Sunnmorsposten." "How did you know who I am?" "Everyone in Alesund knows you've arrived, I think, and why you've come." "Look, I'm sorry." "If I had known you were here I would have asked for permission." "Didn't you see my car?" "Could be anyone's, and I've said I'm sorry." "What were you looking for in there?" "I'm following up a theory of mine." "Oh, and what theory is that?" "I don't believe Hjalmar Jordahl's death was an accident." "I think he was murdered." "Ripped By mstoll" "Do you have any evidence to go with this theory of yours, Mr Bjornson?" " No, not yet." " So what's it based on?" "The fact that whatever else he was, Jordahl wasn't a fool." "What have you been told about his death?" "Nothing, just that he went out sailing, got caught in a storm and he was drowned." "And that on its own doesn't make any sense." "Sounds perfectly reasonable to me." "The storm that day wasn't sudden and unexpected, you know, it had been forecast, and it had been blowing up the night before." "So?" "So, Jordahl can't have got caught unawares." "He cast off from here with the weather already against him." " I don't see that's any..." " He just wasn't that stupid." "Not to go out in the fjord alone in a boat that size with a force nine gale blowing." "He was a very experienced sailor." "He would never have taken such a risk." "Not without a good reason." "Well, then maybe he had a reason." " Such as?" " Well, I don't know, but that question must have been raised at the time." "Only it wasn't, not seriously." " Well, why didn't you raise it?" " I wasn't here." "The day Jordahl died I flew to Strasbourg to research a series of articles on EEC fishing policy." "By the time I got back a fortnight later, the inquest was over." "I mentioned my doubts to a couple of people, though, including a friend of mine in the police, but they weren't impressed." "It seems they were quite happy to accept that it was an accident and he was out there for pleasure." "Well that's possible, isn't it?" "OK, it was foolish, but people do crazy things like that." " Not Hjalmar Jordahl." " Did you know him well?" "No one did, that wasn't possible." "He didn't let you get close enough for that, but I knew him better than most people around here did, I think." "How come?" "A couple of years ago I did a piece on him for the paper, a sort of business profile, and he liked it, enough to invite me out here for a meal." "It was then I got the idea of writing a book about him, he was a very important man in this country, but he'd always been a bit of a mystery so it would have sold well." " Would have?" " He wasn't interested." "And he made it quite clear that, as far as his private life was concerned, that's how it was going to stay." "But instead, he suggested I wrote a history of Jordahl Industries, just so that it was all on record somewhere, and he said if no one else would publish it, then he would." "So after that we met quite regularly, and when some one tells you in detail, exactly how they worked their way up from having nothing to becoming a millionaire, well, then you learn a lot more about them" "than just how clever they were at making money." "I get the impression he wasn't a very happy man." "Certainly not in his later years, and even less after she died." "Well, maybe there you have it." "Not a murder," " but not an accident either." " Suicide?" "You don't understand." "He never admitted defeat in anything and for him, misery would have just been another challenge." "Did you ever meet her?" "No, I vaguely remember seeing her in town a couple of times, and my family were right outside the kind of circles she moved in." "Well, I'm afraid you're a long way off convicing me that there's anything in your theory, Mr Bjornson." "I'm not trying to convince you." "Why should I?" "You're only visiting here, as I understand it?" "Why did you tell me about it, then?" "You asked me what I was doing in the boat house and I couldn't think of a convincing enough lie." "I wouldn't have thought you were that slow-witted." "Only when confronted by a beautiful woman." "Is it true that you'd never heard of Jordahl until recently?" "That's the story that's circulating." "My God, the local gossips have picked that up already?" "Been going the rounds for a week or more." "That long?" "Who started it on its way, I wonder?" "My guess would been someone in Lawyer Langva's office." "Well, is it true?" "Yes." "I was totally unaware of his existence until a month ago." "So why did he leave you this place and the klippfisk factory in his will?" "Good question, but I'm afraid I can't help you with the answer, because I honestly don't know why." "Any suggestions?" "No doubt the members of the Alesund Ladies Guild have got it worked out, though." "The favourite explanation is that he has to have been your father." " Oh, well he wasn't." " You're sure?" " Quite sure." " Not that it matters." "Well, only to me, perhaps." "Yes, of course it might." "I'm sorry." "I must get back to the office." "Well, that's the second time I've had to apologise to you in less than ten minutes." "How's that for a bad start, eh?" "Well, I wouldn't worry." "I very much doubt if fate ever intended this to be a lasting relationship." "By the way, I would be grateful if you didn't say anything to anyone about my theory." "Do you really think you have any chance of proving it?" "No, probably not, but I'll go on digging when and where I can, and it wouldn't help if what I was up to was common knowledge." " OK." " Thank you." "There is something else to back it up." "I was out here with Jordahl the night before he drowned, going over some old company records and he could hardly move his right arm." "It seems he'd pulled a muscle in his shoulder earlier in the day, and it was causing him quite a bit of pain." "Of course it could have cleared up by the following morning, but I doubt it." "So, with only one arm working properly would you go out sailing in bad weather?" "Now that is something to think about, isn't it?" "Hello?" "Hello?" " Hi." " Hi." "I'll do that." "You've been for a trip on the fjord?" "Just into town." "When there is much traffic, it is quicker by boat from here." "Really?" "Much more enjoyable way to make the journey!" "Yes." "Did you go to Jordahlsholmen again?" "Yes, I just got back." "And this time did you also visit the island?" "Just briefly." "Tell me something." "Anna-Marie said that no-one's been over to the house on the island, since your mother died?" "That's right no one has, except the woman who cleans it." "Of course, I should have realised." "How often does she go across?" "Not every week, I think, but often enough." "Well, that's that mystery solved, then." "Only why?" " Yes?" " Oh, nothing." "She is a good worker, I understand, but you perhaps would want to make other arrangements from now on." "Oh no, if she's happy to go on doing it." " Catherine?" " Yes." "Will you sell Jordahlsholmen to me?" "Well, I don't know..." "The property is of no use to you, is it?" "And I will give you a very good price." " More than it is worth, even." " Oh no, I wouldn't..." "Its very important to me that Jordahlsholmen stays in the family." "Of course if you were going to live there, even for a little while each year, that would be all right." " But since you're not..." " It's unlikely." "...it could pass into the hands of strangers and I would not want that." "It must not happen." "So I want you to know that I will buy it from you for whatever you ask." "Ingrid?" "Lars is home early today." "Think about it, and when you're ready to sell, we will talk again." "But say nothing to Lars about this or to Anna-Marie, they would only think I was being foolish." " Please, promise me." " Yes, of course." " I won't say a word." " Thank you." " Hello, Catherine." " Hello." "Did you have a good day?" "Well, an interesting one anyway." "Good." "So, what arrangements did you finally make with Anna Marie about tonight?" "She'll be with us at seven o'clock and then we will all go to the restaurant together." "Fine." "You'll like the Kaiser Wilhelm, I think and it will be good for you to have an evening away from home." "Persuading my wife to go out anywhere is not easy, believe me." "Obviously, she has everything she needs to make her happy right here." "Yes, that's right." "You see, Catherine understands." "You do, don't you?" "Of course." "Come in." "Anna-Marie has just telephoned." "She'll be late, I'm afraid, but at least that means we do not have to hurry to get ready." "I thought you'd like to know." "Thank you." "Well, I'm nearly ready now anyhow." "Your mother?" "Yes, taken six years before she died, and the other one when she was 18 and her last year at school in Oslo." "What was her name?" "Kirsten, Kirsten Enger before she married." "She was very beautiful." "Were you very close, the two of you?" "Oh yes, we were, but more so because my father died when I was very young." "So, Each other." "It was different for me, I hardly knew my mother." "Oh, why was that?" "I never got the chance to really, nor did Anna-Marie, neither of us did." "He kept her away from us, you see." " Takk." "Skål." " Skål" " Skål." "Delightful place." "And the food is excellent." "What is it?" "We seem to be attracting rather a lot of attention." "Really?" "Alesund's a small community, and yours is a new face, there's bound to be curiosity about who and what you are." "According to Bjornson everyone in town knows who I am." " Bjornson?" " Anders Bjornson." "He told me he works for the local newspaper." "Yes, he does." "He's with Sunnmoresposten." " Where did you meet him?" " At the farmhouse." " What was he doing there?" " Fishing." "I hope you reminded him that it's private property." " Yes, I did." " Good." "So, have you made any plans?" "Well no, not really - apart from selling the factory, that is." "What about Jordahlsholmen?" "I haven't got around to thinking about that yet." "I understand your manager Mr Tunheim is interested in buying the fish factory." "Yes he is, but he has to see if he can raise a loan before he can make an offer and clearance on that" " could take two weeks or more." " Well, when the time comes to close the deal, if there's anything I can do to help," " please don't hesitate to ask." " Thank you." "This will give us a chance to get to know you better and for you to explore the area a little." "Who can tell, you may even decide to live here." "Well, I don't think so, but I'm very happy to stay for a while, but I don't want to go on imposing on your hospitality." "So tomorrow, I'm going to move in to the farmhouse." "No, you musn't." "Why not, if that's what she wants to do?" "There is everything there she will need to make her comfortable." "Well, without seeming ungrateful," "I think it would be the best thing all round." "Well, of course." "If that's so." "It's just that..." "And if it doesn't work out, or you get bored, well, you know you're always welcome." "I really do appreciate what you've all done for me." "Nonsense, it's our pleasure." "Living at Jordahlsholmen, you'll certainly need a car and there's a company car at the factory that no one is using at the moment." "So, if you come over tomorrow, you could take it, and arrange with the car hire people to pick up the other one at the factory." "Well, if you're sure, Anna-Marie, thank you." "Pleasure." "Now, what are we going to have?" "I can recommend the beef, it's always good here." " Good morning." " Good morning." "Did you sleep well?" " Oh, very well." "Except I still haven't got used to it being light so late." "Soon, there will be hardly any night at all." "On midsummer eve you can read a newspaper in the garden at midnight." "But then of course in the winter it is dark" " for many hours each day." " Yes, so I've heard." "But you'll be home long before that happens, won't you?" "Is it true that you destroyed all your other paintings?" "Anna-Marie said you burnt them." "Yes I did, some time ago." "All of them?" "Except that one which my sister insisted I keep," " I don't know why." " Oh, she likes it." "I had the right to burn them." "They were mine." "Of course, it seems a pity that's all." "No, I don't think so." "They were not good." "I found them unacceptable." " There is a letter for you." " Oh, good!" " Coffee?" " Yes, please." "Local?" "When will you be leaving us today?" "Sometime this morning, I thought." "I wish you would change your mind." "You'll be lonely at Jordahlsholmen, I think." "I'll be fine." "It's not so far, and I can always pop back for a chat." ""Dear Miss Durrell, I would be pleased to see you at my home for tea this Friday." "I shall expect you at 4 o'clock and you need only telephone me if this day and time are not convenient for you." "Sincerely yours, Astrid Linderman."" "Does the name Astrid Linderman mean anything to you?" "Yes, she's our great-aunt, my mother's aunt." "Her English is good." "She was a teacher once." "Was she at the party the other night?" "No, we see very little of her nowadays, she's quite old and she seldom leaves her house." "She wants me to have tea with her, today." "She's obviously heard of your arrival and wishes to meet you." "My father's will must have surprised her as much as it did us, and you." "You will go?" "Of course." "Anna-Marie Jordahl." " Who's calling?" " Ingrid Nilsen." " Yes?" " Anna-Marie?" "Oh hello, Ingrid." "Where have you been?" "I've called three times." "I've been with the fabric suppliers" "I've just got back." "What is it?" "She's had a letter." " Who has?" " Catherine, from Astrid." "Oh?" "She's going to see her this afternoon." "Is she?" "So?" "Takk." " Hello." " Hello." " How are you today?" " Just a little less confused." "I didn't help with that theory of mine, I'm afraid." "Well, no." "Even if you're right, and I still don 't think you are." "It's not my concern, is it?" "Unless of course you suspect me?" "No, you're one person who is definitely in the clear." " Are you on your way in or out?" " Out." "I'm going to have some coffee." " Join me?" " Yes, OK." "Fantastic!" " Are you from here?" " Yes." "And are you planning on staying?" "Today, tomorrow, next week, next month, that long at least." "How have the two daughters and Lars Nilsen" " taken to your good fortune?" " Well." "This isn't an interview, is it?" "You're not going to" " put this in the newspaper?" " Of course not." "I don't work that way." "Besides, I very much doubt if I could get anything into the papers about you anyway." "Jordahl Industries wouldn't like it, and no one in this town is foolish enough to offend Jordahl Industries." "Any more than they ever did anything openly to offend Hjalmar Jordahl when he was alive." "I was just interested in how the family reacted." "Surprisingly well, in fact." "They've gone out of their way to make me welcome." "So why are you moving into the farm house?" "Well, I just want to play lady of the manor for a while." "I've never owned 60 acres before, and I won't for long." "Are you gonna sell everything?" "The factory is good as sold and I've got one potential buyer for Jordahlsholmen, but in the meantime" "I'm going to enjoy it for myself." "Do you swim?" "Well, just about, why?" "Well stay out of the channel between the farmhouse and the island." "There's a very strong current running through there." "Thanks, I'll remember that." "Yeah, do." "Have you ever been out to the island?" "Nope, never." "That house..." "it's strange, eerie." "Oh?" "Well, when you go into it, it's as though someone's still living there, and just stepped out for a while." "My guess is, it's been left just the same as it was the day" "Freya Jordahl committed suicide." "I can believe that, Jordahl adored his wife." "So maybe after what happened, for him that house became a sort of shrine to her memory, to be left unchanged and undisturbed." "Have you asked Anna-Marie and Ingrid about it?" "Well, no, I haven't liked to." "They both seem to have quite a hang-up about the place." "So what are you going to do with it?" "Leave it as it is, and hand that problem on to whoever buys it." "Unless Freya claims it back, of course." "I'm not joking." "When I was coming up from Bergen on the coastal steamer I saw this woman onboard, only briefly, staring at me from the end of the corridor." "When I turned back she had gone." "The next time I saw her was when I first laid eyes on the portrait of Freya at the farmhouse." "The likeness was uncanny." "A remarkable likeness." "Of course." "Look, I've got to go, I've got some shopping to do." "I'm sorry, you haven't finished." "Have now." "Thanks for the coffee." "I'm glad I ran into you." "Do you like sailing?" "I love it." "Will you come out with me sometime?" "Yes, OK." "When?" "This Sunday?" "I could sail around to Jordahlsholmen and pick you up." "We'll make a day of it." "Sounds like it might be fun." "Sunday then - but no mysteries, right?" "I like it." "I like them all." "And this one." "The chair of the future." "Well, I hope so or we're in trouble." "Although we still make the more traditional furniture, as you can see." "Oh this is marvellous." "It's so comfortable." "I want one of these in my flat in London." "It must be very expensive." "I think for you we can make a special price." "Oh no, Anna-Marie." "Full trade discount." "No more of a favour than that." "Oh right, thank you." "You know, I wish I had this kind of talent." "But you already have a talent - for advertising." "And I'm very anxious to break into the market in the UK." "So if you do set up your own agency, you might like to take on our account?" " Are you serious?" " Of course." "Before you go back to England" "I'll show you around the whole factory and we'll" " discuss the idea in detail." " Good." "Mmm, lovely." "What's this?" "Something new you're working on?" "It's only a rough idea at the moment." "Do you like it?" " What is it?" " It's a play chair for children." " Oh, I see." " It may work." "Have you moved into Jordahlsholmen yet?" "No, I'm on my way now." "Why don't you stop and have some lunch here, then?" "Yes, I'd like to." "Oh, but I arranged with the car hire people to settle up with them here." "Oh, they'll ring from reception when they arrive." "Excuse me, I just must sign these letters." "Course." " Anna-Marie?" " Mm?" "Have you got any other keys to the rooms in your mother's house?" "No, why?" "Well, one of the upstairs rooms is locked and none of the keys on the bunch you gave me fit." "Really?" "Those are the only ones I was given." "I'll talk to Bjarne Langva." "He may have a separate one he forgot to hand over to me." "Thanks." "I understand you're going to see Astrid Linderman this afternoon." "Yes, I am." "What did Ingrid tell you about her?" "Just that she used to be a teacher before she retired." "Yes, sadly she's been ill for some time." "Oh, you'll like her, I'm sure, but sometimes she gets a little confused about things." "My name's Catherine Durrell" "I have an appointment with Miss Linderman." "Wait in here." "Thank you." "Hello." " How old am I?" " I'm sorry?" "How old am I?" "And I want the truth, not a polite lie, and I will know if it is." "Well?" "Come on." "I'm not very good at guessing anyone's age, Miss Linderman." " No, Astrid, I think." " Thank you." "Well, my age?" "Say what you see." "76?" "77?" "Oh, I knew it, that fool Albrigsten told me only this morning that I was looking better." "So much for doctors." "I will be 70 in four months." " So glad to meet you, my dear." " I'm delighted to be here." "And of course you don't like to ask what is wrong with me." "It's arthritis, it's worst in my hips but now it's starting to get into my hands." "Oh, I'm sorry." "I'm sorry too." "It's extremely painful at times." "Do you like this house?" "It's very beautiful." "And what do you think of this room?" "Hideous, isn't it?" "Most of the furniture belonged to my parents and it 's worth a great deal of money, I'm told and that is the reason why I have held on to it." "Not because it's valuable, you understand, but simply that I get a great deal of perverse pleasure in refusing to sell it to all the greedy dealers that keep calling on me." " Oh, do sit down, please." " Thank you." "It was Doctor Albrigsten who told me that you were here." "Not that he needed to." "You were looking at my photographs?" "Yes." "I've got one of almost all the children I've taught in my career, and certainly one of each of my, my girls when I was head teacher." "Stupid of me, isn't it?" "Oh, I don't know." "We're back to pleasure again, aren't we?" "Exactly!" "I knew I would like you." "But I'm afraid you're going to be very disappointed in me because you came here hoping to learn something" " from me, didn't you?" " Yes, I did, partly for that reason, anyway." "You can't help me?" "No, I regret I know no more about your inheritance" " than you know already." " That's practically nothing." "When Hjalmar's will was read, no one was more taken back than I was, I assure you." "And so, if information is all you came for?" "I said that was partly the reason." "You invited me to tea, remember?" "Good." "Yes, indeed I did, and it's ready." " Give me your arm." "Thank you." " You all right?" " Yes." "I told Gerda we would have tea in the garden." "And I would like" " to walk there with you." " Yes." "My sister and her husband were killed when Trondheim was bombed in 1940." "Freya was only three years old." "So, after the funeral I took her back to Oslo with me and I looked after her from then on, till the end." "That can't have been easy for you." "No." "No, it wasn't, but she was a good child." "She gave me hardly any trouble when she was growing up." "And she did so well at school." "I still have all her exercise books and every one of her reports." "She was an excellent student, and she was such a talented artist." " In what way?" " Oh, she painted." "That's what she was studying when she met Jordahl." "Oh, that's where her daughter gets it from." "Ingrid, she's a very good painter, isn't she?" "Yes, yes, so I understand." "But Freya was exceptionally gifted." "Do you have any of her pictures?" "No, sadly." "She didn't do much painting after she was married and none of the pictures she did at the art school satisfied her." "So she gave them away to people who didn't know any better, she said." "You, er... you've been to the island, of course?" " Yes." " And into the house?" " Yes." " Were you surprised?" " Very." " You know about that?" "Of course." "I was the one who laid everything out the way it is." "Hjalmar asked me to, and as a last favour to him." " And so, before I left..." " You were living there?" "Yes, of course, with Freya." "And were you there when?" "Yes, yes I was." "I'm sorry, that was thoughtless." "She had not been well, you know." "Not for some time." "Clever, artistic people." "I do so envy them, but I pity them too." "Because life is so often just too much for them." "All those dolls, were they Freya's?" "Yes, she, um..." "she collected them." "Some of them are lovely, aren't they?" "Not that they were any comfort to her, though." "Forgive me, but these days I have to snatch at moments of sleep when the pain allows me." "Of course, I understand." "I think it's time I was going." "Shall I take you back into the house?" "No, no, I will stay here a while and Gerda will see to this, by and by." "Thank you for inviting me." "I was so sorry I couldn't help you." " But you have, quite a lot." " Good." "How long are you staying in Alesund?" "I'm not sure." "Two or three weeks, at least." "Oh, then we can meet again, if you have time, and if you should need a friend, look on me as one." "Yes, thank you, I will." "Do not trouble yourself greatly over Hjalmar Jordahl's motive." "Whatever his reason was in naming you in his will." "Accept that it was good enough, for him and for you." "I shall have to." "Do you know why Hjalmar wanted Freya's house kept the way it is?" "As some kind of memorial?" "He loved her so much, he never really believed that she was dead." "Poor man." "And he was quite sure that one day she would want to come back there." "Thank you." "Who are you?" "What do you want in this house?" "Watch out!" "You bloody fool!" "Get over!" " No!" "Ripped By mstoll"

"In 1935, Ed Murrow began his career with CBS." "When World War Two broke out his voice brought the battle of Britain home to us through his "This Is London" radio series." "He started with us all many of us here tonight, when television was in its infancy with the news documentary show, "See It Now"." "He threw stones at giants." "Segregation, exploitation of migrant workers apartheid, J. Edgar Hoover not the least of which, his historical fight with Senator McCarthy." "He is the host of our enormously popular show "Person to Person" and tonight he is here with his son, Casey wife, Janet, and all of you who he's worked with inspired, lectured, and taught." "Ladies and gentlemen the Radio-Television News Directors' Association and Foundation welcomes Mr Edward R. Murrow." "This might just do nobody any good." "At the end of this discourse a few people may accuse this reporter of fouling his own comfortable nest and your organization may be accused of having given hospitality to heretical and even dangerous ideas." "But the elaborate structure of networks advertising agencies, and sponsors will not be shaken or altered." "It is my desire, if not my duty, to try to talk to you journeymen with some candor about what is happening to radio and television." "And if what I say is responsible I alone am responsible for the saying of it." "Our history will be what we make of it." "And if there are any historians about 50 or 100 years from now and there should be preserved the kinescopes of one week of all three networks they will there find recorded in black and white, and in color evidence of decadence, escapism and insulation from the realities of the world in which we live." "We are currently wealthy, fat, comfortable, and complacent." "We have a built-in allergy to unpleasant or disturbing information." "Our mass media reflect this." "But unless we get up off our fat surpluses and recognize that television in the main is being used to distract, delude, amuse, and insulate us then television and those who finance it those who look at it and those who work at it may see a totally different picture too late." "Millie!" "Just the person I wanted to see!" "Come here!" "This goes at the top of the Roy Campanella piece." "Yes!" "Give me a half an hour." "I may need it a little quicker than that!" "â€"Can I get some coffee first?" "â€"Come on!" "Get me some coffee!" "Morning, Johnny!" "I have some new notes that go with the Tito footage for Fred." "Fred's gonna be in in an hour." "I already put them on his desk." "Can you just make sure that he doesn't look at the film until he reads the notes?" "â€"Yes." "â€"Thank you." "Hey, Joe!" "Shirley!" "â€"What's going on in here?" "â€"What do you mean?" "Two attractive people alone in the copy room!" "Don't tell Paley, he'll fire me." "He'll fire both of us, Shirley." "â€"Rules are made to be broken!" "â€"You can afford to say that." "Let me see this." "â€"It's simply a loyalty oath." "â€"To CBS?" "â€"And to America." "You promise to be a loyal American?" "I know." "All of the reporters have signed this." "Who are you promising this to?" "CBS?" "Fred signed it." "Murrow signed it." "â€"Murrow signed it?" "â€"Yeah." "Are you now or have you ever been..." "I thought it was a joke, but there's a lot of pressure." "...on the Attorney General's list of subversive groups?" "â€"I don't know." "â€"Let's think about it." "What is it really saying?" "Is it a civil liberties issue or censorship?" "Am I simply stating to CBS that I'm not a Communist?" "â€"Murrow signed this?" "â€"And Fred and Stanton." "â€"Maybe you should talk to Murrow." "â€"Maybe I should sign it." "If you don't sign this, are you and I a target?" "If I don't sign it, they'll fire me." "Sign it." "Finally we can tell everyone the truth." "If I could express it in what's in my heart now I'd do it in the terms of the poet who once said "Ah, 'tis but a dainty flower I bring to you."" ""Yes, 'tis but a violet..."" ""...glistening with dew."" ""But still in its heart there lie beauties concealed."" ""So in our heart..."" ""...our love for you..."" ""..." "lies unrevealed."" "I used to pride myself on the idea that I was a bit... tough especially over the past 19-19 months, when we've been kicked around, and bullwhipped, and damned." "I didn't think that I could be... touched very deeply." "Okay, that's enough." "That's enough, Leo." "â€"It's short." "â€"How long is the piece?" "It's 4 minutes, but we can cut it down." "It can't stand alone, but it might be a nice companion piece." "Let's go through this one more time." "Palmer!" "Yep, got a call from the office of Senator Morse this morning interested in setting up a debate possibly with Senator Kerr over the comments Bentsen made on last night's show." "Secretary of Agriculture?" "Good idea!" "Can they do it by this week?" "No, it would have to be 2 weeks at the earliest depending on Morse's schedule." "But still it's a great idea." "Let's follow up on that." ""Hoover speaks on Benjamin Franklin."" "We're having better luck with Mr Benjamin Franklin than with Mr Hoover." "It may progress better as a "Person to Person"." ""At home with Ben Franklin." "His electricity awards."" "We've got the footage, we need to contact him." "See if you can contact him and get the shot." "He wants to do the story." "Joe!" "Member Delbert Clark?" "No longer with us." "â€"New York Times?" "â€"Yeah." "â€"Our friend at the Times." "This was yesterday morning, they're saying it's... â€"How old was he?" "â€"53." "Sudden illness." "â€"Home of a friend." "â€"No, it's not an obit piece." "Natalie send some flowers over there from us." "Couple things." "Case before the Supreme Court involving the constitutionality of a section of the Internal Security Act provides for the deportation of any alien if he becomes a Communist after entering this country." "Can you take this?" "All right." "McCarthy interrupting his wedding trip to take charge of the investigation of Communist infiltration... â€"Natalie, send some flowers." "â€"Poor Mrs McCarthy!" "May I finish?" "It's national security!" "â€"A real ladies' man!" "â€"Well, they're in love." "We have no show for Tuesday, fellows." "So get out there and make some news." "Rob a bank." "Mug an old lady." "Do something." "â€"You look at the Secretary Stevens footage?" "â€"We will." "Watch it all the way to the end, it's worth it." "Thank you, John." "There's not much there." "I can't tie it to the Eisenhower in the back of the train piece." "â€"You ever spend any time in Detroit, Fred?" "â€"Not recently." "There's a story here in the Detroit News, Dexter, Michigan." "A kid named Milo Radulovich." "â€"Italian?" "â€"Irish." "Air Force kicked him out because his dad reads one Serbian newspaper." "â€"Was he a Communist?" "â€"I don't know." "â€"Who brought the charges?" "â€"Air Force." "Charges were in a sealed envelope, nobody saw them." "â€"Not even at the hearing?" "â€"He was declared guilty without a trial and told if he wanted to keep his job he had to denounce his father and his sister." "Thank you, Natalie." "â€"His sister?" "â€"He told them to take a hike." "Let's send Joe and Charlie down there, see if he's any good on camera." "Is he being brought before the Committee?" "No." "Then it's not McCarthy." "Isn't it?" "Milo Radulovich." "What happens to your children your 5-year-old and your 5-month-old in terms of you?" "If I am being judged on my relatives are my children going to be asked to denounce me?" "Are they going to be judged on what their father was labeled?" "Are they going to have to explain to their friends, etc why their father is a security risk?" "If the thing is let stand as it, the first recommendation was sent out by the board, I see a chain reaction that has no end to anybody, for anybody." "Well, that's new." "You can't call this a neutral piece." "The other side's been represented rather well for the last 2 years." "The Air Force hasn't gone on the record." "So you want to forego the standards you've stuck to for 15 years both sides, no commentary." "â€"We all editorialize. â€"I'm just making sure we identify what..." "We're giving them the information up front and we're asking them to comment on it." "Frank, hold on." "I've searched my conscience." "I can't for the life of me find any justification for this." "I simply cannot accept that there are, on every story two equal and logical sides to an argument." "â€"Call it editorializing, if you'd like." "â€"It is editorializing." "They'll have equal time to defend themselves." "Do you understand the position you're putting us in?" "We are all in this together, if the Senate wants to investigate..." "Do me a favor avoid any big speeches about how we're all in a big boat together!" "Please, don't insult me." "I have to go back to Mr Paley and Alcoa, who sponsors your show and also have some military contracts and I have to tell them that they're going to be in a tough bind because of a beef you had with Joe McCarthy." "â€"We're not going at McCarthy." "â€"You're starting the goddamn fire." "Excuse me." "Mr Friendly, there's a Colonel Anderson to see you?" "â€"Colonel?" "â€"He's in your office." "There are two of them." "Maybe they liked the transcript, and want to compliment us on it." "Excuse me." "Go after Joe Kennedy." "We'll pay for it." "I've got a great story about Hoover." "You know how many shows you're going to have to do to make up for this?" "â€"And Judy and her daughter Liza next week." "No, no." "You're interviewing Rin Tin Tin!" "I'll talk to Mr Paley." "Alcoa wont pay for the ads." "And we probably won't either." "But nobody'll stop you." "How much are the ads?" "â€"3,000." "â€"I'll split it with Fred." "He just won't have Christmas presents for his kids this year." "â€"He's a Jew. â€"Don't tell him that, he loves Christmas." "â€"To be clear, you did speak with the lawyers?" "â€"Yes, we did." "And we read the transcript." "We've not been allowed to see the footage." "Mack is on a plane from Dexter right now with the last interviews." "We'll be going right down to the wire." "Your show airs tomorrow." "How can we possibly approve and check your story in the limited amount of time you have given us?" "With all due respect, you have been invited to participate in this piece not to approve it." "We are going with the story that says that the U.S. Air Force tried Milo Radulovich without any evidence and found him guilty of being a security risk without his Constitutional rights..." "â€"You have not seen the evidence and are claiming he's not a security risk." "Wouldn't you guess that those who have seen the contents of that envelope might have a better idea of what makes someone a danger to his country?" "â€"Who?" "Who?" "â€"Or do you think it should just be you that decides?" "Who are the people?" "Are they elected?" "Are they appointed?" "Do they have an axe to grind?" "Is it you, sir?" "Or you, Colonel Jenkins?" "Do you know the contents of that sealed envelope?" "We have been a friend and ally of both Mr Murrow and CBS News for many years." "The story you are going to run tomorrow is without merit." "So before you take any steps that cannot be undone I strongly urge you to reconsider your stand." "These are very dangerous waters you are attempting to navigate." "We have had no hearing at all." "We have had no day in court." "In all the 32 years that I have been a practicing attorney in Detroit I have never witnessed such a farce and travesty upon justice as this thing has developed." "â€"Now this whole theory..." "â€"Eddie, just take the first reel." "Tell John I left 5 seconds extra leader." "5 seconds!" "I got it!" "Palmer, where's Joe?" "Have you seen Joe?" "He's on his way to the control room." "We're gonna have to do the voice-over live." "Natalie, I need a booth with a live mic." "Booth is there, it's already set." "We didn't have time to sync the voice-over out." "That's not what I asked for." "It's missing the voice-over on the last piece." "There's a commercial in the booth." "What shall I do?" "â€"2 minutes to air!" "â€"There's not supposed to be a commercial!" "Get him out of the booth!" "2-and-a-half minutes on the end piece." "Keep it down, please." "It's a little loud." "2 minutes to air, fellas." "â€"He's gonna add a joke." "â€"Charlie, loan me your lighter." "Make sure you know that I swap with those two pieces of parents." "â€"As long as he talks fast because..." "â€"He will talk fast." "We got the film." "Will it be ready?" "You bet." "Funny thing, Freddy!" "Every time you light a cigarette for me, I know you're lying." "It occurs to me we might not get away with this one." "Alcoa, the aluminum company of America... â€"10 seconds." "â€"You fellas, ready?" "Okay." "Ready on camera 1." "5, 4, 3, 2." "Pan, camera 1." "Good evening." "A few weeks ago there occurred a few obscure notices in the newspapers about Milo Radulovich a lieutenant in the Air Force Reserves." "And, also, something about Air Force regulation 35-62 which states that a man may be regarded as a security risk if he has close and continuing association with Communists or people believed to have Communist sympathies." "Lieutenant Radulovich was asked to resign in August." "He declined." "A board was called and heard his case." "At the end it was recommended that he be severed from the Air Force although it was also stated that there was no question whatever as to the Lieutenant's loyalty." "We propose to examine, in so far as we can the case of Lieutenant Radulovich." "Our reporter, Joe Wershba, cameraman, Charlie Mack." "This is the town of Dexter, Michigan." "Population 1500." "This statue is at the end of Ann Arbor Street erected by..." "What did the General tell you yesterday?" "â€"A Colonel." "There were two of them." "â€"That makes a General." "They weren't too pleased." "You're gonna get audited this year." "Not me, you." "I told them I didn't want to do the story." "â€"You always were yellow." "â€"Better than red." "In 10 seconds." "This is the sister, Margaret Radulovich Fishman." "She neither defends nor explains her political activities." "I feel that my activities, be what they may or my political beliefs are my own private affair." "Are my children going to be asked to denounce me?" "Are they going to be judged on what their father was labeled?" "Are they going to have to explain to their friends, etc why their father is a security risk?" "I see, absolutely, that this is a chain reaction." "If the thing is let stand as it, the first recommendation was sent out by the board I see a chain reaction that has no end to anybody, for anybody." "Perhaps you will permit me to read a few sentences because I would like to say rather precisely what I mean." "We have told the Air Force that we will provide facilities for any comments, criticisms, or corrections it may wish to make as to the case of Milo Radulovich." "We are unable to judge the charges against his father or sister because neither we, nor you, nor they, nor the lawyers nor the Lieutenant, know what was contained in that manila envelope." "Was it hearsay, rumor, gossip, slander or hard ascertainable facts that could be backed by credible witnesses?" "We do not know." "We believe the son shall not bear the iniquity of the father." "Even though that iniquity be proved and in this case it was not." "But we believe too that this case illustrates the urgent need for the Armed Forces to communicate more fully than they have so far done the procedures and regulations to be followed in attempting to protect the national security and the rights of the individual at the same time." "Whatever happens in this area of the relationship between the individual and the state we will do it ourselves it cannot be blamed on Malenkov or Mao Tse-Tung or even our allies." "And, it seems to us, Fred Friendly and myself that this is a subject that should be argued about endlessly." "Good night, and good luck." "And we're out." "May I tell you something about yourself..." "May I tell you something about yourself as a member of the "Person to Person" audience?" "Based on audience research studies you are well above average in education and intelligence." "Your interests are wide, from world affairs and science to sports and show business." "And you have one characteristic that's rather encouraging to me and that's the fact that you are not easily persuaded by advertising." "The makers of Kent considered all these characteristics when they chose Mr Murrow's program to tell you about Kent." "Of all leading filter cigarettes, Kent filter's best." "If you try Kent with that in mind, I think you'll agree with many other thinking people who have changed to Kent." "They find that it makes good sense to smoke Kent and good smoking, too." "â€"Did you get the changes?" "â€"Edward Murrow, "Person to Person" on the CBS Television Network." "â€"No, no." "You there?" "Okay." "We got it." "Now back to Ed Murrow." "Not since the silent movies and the idols they produced has Hollywood witnessed the sort of pilgrimage that is now going on." "Each day, oblivious to time, weather, and the state of the world sightseers head in the direction of California's San Fernando Valley." "For there, at the end of the tourist line, is Sherman Oaks and the home Liberace has built for himself and his mother." "This is the front and nobody knows how many people have seen that view." "This is the back of the house and that's Liberace's bedroom." "â€"Good evening, Lee." "â€"Good evening, Ed." "â€"What are you doing?" "â€"I'm dictating my weekly syndicated newspaper column and on my trusty tape recorder here, I'm also dictating a book." "â€"It's an inspirational book." "â€"Lee, what about you?" "Have you given much thought to getting married and settling down?" "Actually, I've given a lot of thought to it but I don't believe in getting married just for the sake of getting married." "I want to someday find the perfect mate and settle down to what I hope will be a marriage that will be blessed by faith and will be a lasting union." "I was reading about lovely young Princess Margaret and she's looking for her dream man, too and I hope she finds him someday." "Uh-huh." "Lee, thanks very much for letting us come and visit you." "It's been very pleasant." "And will you say goodnight to your family for us?" "â€"I certainly will." "â€"Thanks a lot." "â€"Good night, Ed." "â€"Good night, Lee." "Next week, we'll take you to Beverly Hills, California to the house of Mickey Rooney and his new bride." "Until then, good night, and good luck." "Good show, Mr Murrow!" "Excuse me, Mr Murrow." "Could you take a look at this and sign it for me, please?" "Thank you." "Dr Stanton would like to have a drink with you." "â€"When?" "â€"Now." "He's at the Pentagon Bar." "I can't." "What the hell is he doing there?" "â€"I believe he's waiting for you." "â€"Just call him!" "â€"Fine." "â€"Oppenheimer next week." "â€"It's a good show, Ed." "â€"Hey, Don!" "â€"Ed!" "You're getting good at this!" "They're gonna think you like it!" "Pays the bills." "How are you, Don?" "Ah, it's day today." "If she saw how good you look right now, she'd be back." "You tell her that if you see her, will you?" "â€"I read the O'Brian piece." "â€"Yeah, it's tough." "I'm a pinko." "I slant the news." "I'm just waiting for him to say my wife left me too." "â€"Nobody worth their salt reads him." "â€"You read him." "Well, see, I rest my case." "â€"Does Paley read him?" "â€"Bill Paley's not gonna do anything." "Thanks, Ed." "I just came by to tell you how great the Lieutenant piece was." "â€"Thanks. â€"How's the fallout?" "â€"Mostly good, surprisingly." "Is this the start?" "Are you taking sides?" "It's just a little poke with a stick, see what happens." "You let me know if I can help." "But you're a pinko." "I'll see you." "Hey, Joe!" "What's all this Radulovich junk you're putting out?" "I can't talk to you now." "I have to get this film back to New York." "What would you say if I told you that Murrow was on the Soviet payroll in 1935?" "â€"Uh!" "Charlie, you wanna..." "â€"Sure." "I'll set up outside." "McCarthy going to the Eisenhower dinner?" "â€"I have no idea." "I don't keep the Senator's calendar for him!" "â€"Really?" "Have you ever seen any spy films?" "You don't hand me a classified folder!" "You're supposed to slip it into my briefcase!" "I didn't know who to give this information to, Paley or Murrow." "As you can imagine, Fred and I aren't very friendly." "No pun intended." "No pun elocuted." "â€"What do you got, Donald?" "â€"In short?" "Murrow's been a Communist sympathizer since the 1930′s." "Member of the International Workers, sponsored educational trips to Moscow and on the Soviet payroll in 1935." "It's all there." "You wanna know why that's not possible?" "Why you'll lose this one?" "Because everyone in this country knows that Ed Murrow is a loyal American, he's a patriot." "Did you know the word "gullible" isn't in the dictionary?" "â€"Can I give this to him?" "â€"I'd love it!" "I have copies!" "I think you guys go too far." "Well, if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck." "Yes, Mr Paley." "Right away." "Yes, sir." "No, he hasn't called." "Yes, sir, the second he calls." "If you're in a meeting, shall I?" "Yes, sir." "Of course, sir." "Mr Murrow!" "Mr Paley will see you now." "â€"Mr Paley, Mr Murrow is here." "â€"Thanks, Miss Mary." "â€"Hello, Ed. â€"Bill..." "â€"Sit over here, will you?" "How's Janet?" "â€"Your son?" "â€"All well, thanks." "How's Babe?" "She's fine." "Her fund raiser got rained on, so... â€"Oh!" "That's why I never plan on anything. â€"Really?" "You'd never know." "Reading fiction?" "I hope so." "You tell me." "Now we know how they're gonna come at us." "That's just the first shot." "Somebody's going to go down." "Have you checked your facts?" "Are you on safe ground?" "â€"Bill, it's time." "Show our cards." "â€"My cards." "You lose, what happens?" "5 guys find themselves out of work." "I'm responsible for a lot more than 5 goddamn reporters." "Let it go." "McCarthy will self-destruct, Cohn, all of them." "You said Corporate would not interfere with Editorial and that the News was to be left..." "We don't make the news, we report the news." "He's marked as Communists." "If he goes too far, the Senate will investigate him and we will report on that." "He oversteps people's civil liberties." "And you're trying him in the press?" "Does he get the right to face his accuser?" "You've decided on this and you're presenting it as fact." "â€"What I am doing..." "â€"I write your check." "I put you in your country house, and I put your son through school!" "You should have told me about this before it went so far down the road!" "Everyone of your boys needs to be clean." "Do you understand?" "No ties." "If Aaron's mother went to a group fund raiser in 1932, he's out." "Hewitt, too." "Anyone in that room." "You make no mistake I will cut them loose." "Corporate won't interfere with Editorial." "But Editorial will not jeopardize the hundreds of employees of the CBS." "Do I make myself clear?" "Yes?" "Fellas, our next show is gonna be about Senator McCarthy." "And we're gonna go right at him." "I don't need to tell you how careful we have to be." "If we are to do this, Ed and I need you to be straight with us." "We need to know, for the good of the piece if any of you have any connection, if you subscribed to a newsletter if you attended a party, anything anything that could compromise this, anything at all because now would be the time to tell us." "Ed, I think I should excuse myself." "Palmer, you kidding?" "My ex was a..." "I wouldn't say she was a Communist but she attended meetings." "It was before we were married." "I didn't even really know about it until after the divorce." "But it was different then." "We were all on the same side." "I'm not telling you anything you don't know." "The thing is somebody'll find out." "They'll hurt us with it." "I should have told you sooner, Ed, I'm sorry." "Fred." "If none of us had ever read a "dangerous" book or had a friend who was "different" or never joined an organization that advocated "change" we'd all be the kind of people Joe McCarthy wants." "We're gonna go with the story, because the terror is in this room." "John!" "Jesse!" "Go through the HUAC hearings." "Eddie!" "Palmer!" "Look at who did the interviews and any speeches." "Okay, fellas, here we go." "His own words, that's what we need." "...said that he wouldn't remove a General from the Army who supported a Communist Major." "I said, "Then, General..."" ""...you should be removed from any command."" ""Any man who says, ‘I will protect and honor a General’..."" ""...‘who protects Communists’, is not fit to wear that uniform, General."" "Ethically, we're fine." "But legally, if we air this, are we leaking closed hearing testimony?" "â€"But he chose to read it." "â€"We're not misquoting him." "â€"There are other reporters." "â€"If it's a legal issue, it's his." "I'll check with Campbell in Legal." "And wait till you hear the bleeding hearts scream and cry about our methods of trying to drag the truth from those who know or should know who covered up a Fifth Amendment Communist Major." "But they say, "Oh..."" ""...it's all right to uncover them, but don't get rough doing it, McCarthy."" "Did a Civil Liberties Union provide you with an attorney at that time?" "I had many offers of attorneys and from the American Civil Liberties Union, too. â€"The question is:" "...did the Civil Liberties Union supply you with an attorney?" "â€"They did supply an attorney." "â€"The answer is yes?" "The answer is yes." "You know the Civil Liberties Union has been listed as a front for and doing the work of the Communist Party?" "Mr Chairman, this was 1932!" "I know this was in 1932." "Do you know that they since have been listed as a front for and doing the work of the Communist Party?" "I do not know that they have been listed so, sir." "â€"You don't know?" "â€"I have heard that mentioned..." "All right, Leo." "Turn it off." "â€"I need those three cans of Stevens!" "â€"Has anybody read this book yet?" "It would be nice if this guy isn't a Commie." "â€"Did Millie give it to you?" "â€"I wanna read the book." "â€"Nobody else, Joe." "â€"I hear you, boss." "I'll put it on a kinescope, push through the end." "Palmer, cut it at 2:30." "I prefer it one on each end, let it run through." "It'd be more powerful." "Cut Kennedy?" "Joe, file it for me." "I'll see the Mundt piece later." "Are we gonna make it, Fred?" "We lost the telecine, but we'll make it." "Did you finish your closing piece?" "It's Shakespeare." "Write your closing." "My argument was if you just show the images of McCarthy it doesn't make any difference." "If you agree with him, you're gonna hate the piece." "If you don't, you'll love it." "Maybe they should wait till they get more footage." "I don't think we can take that chance." "We've got to hit McCarthy before he comes after Ed." "The blue one." "They haven't gone after the AIsops or Herb Block." "Honey, the AIsops and Herb Block didn't work for the Institute of International Education in 1934." "Then I guess it's time." "You worried?" "I didn't think I was." "I don't know why." "I was in the office on Friday." "And I answered the phone, it was Howard calling from London." "And he asked what was going on with McCarthy." "And before I answered him, I turned and looked over my shoulder to see who was listening." "â€"And who was listening?" "Chairman Mao..." "I'll see you at the office." "â€"Hey, your ring!" "â€"Uh!" "Name me another wife who reminds her husband to take off his wedding ring before he goes to the office." "â€"Ava Gardner." "Excuse me, Mr Friendly." "Mr Murrow, Mr Paley's on the line for you." "â€"Maybe he wants to reimburse us for those ads. â€"You'd like that!" "â€"I would like that!" "â€"This is Ed." "There's a Knickerbocker game tonight." "I've got front row seats." "Are you interested?" "I'm busy bringing down the network tonight, Bill." "Is that tonight?" "We're covered, Bill." "All right." "â€"I'm with you today, Ed, and I'm with you tomorrow. â€"Thanks, Bill." "Do you know the timing on the first piece?" "Can we hold all the calls, please?" "Hold the calls till after the show." "Thank you." "â€"You fellas, awake down there?" "â€"Okay." "â€"Just... what are we?" "20?" "â€"30 seconds, Ed." "10 seconds." "5, 4,3, 2." "And pan, camera one." "Because a report on Senator McCarthy is by definition controversial we want to say exactly what we mean to say and request your permission to read from a script what ever remarks Murrow and Friendly may make." "If the Senator feels that we have done violence to his words or pictures and desires to answer himself an opportunity will be afforded him on this program." "Our working thesis tonight is this quotation:" "..."If this fight against Communism..."" ""...has made a fight between America's two great political parties..."" ""...the American people know that one of these parties will be destroyed..."" ""...and the Republic cannot endure very long as a one-party system."" "We applaud that statement and we think Senator McCarthy ought to." "He said it 17 months ago in Milwaukee." "The American people realize that this cannot be made a fight between America's two great political parties." "If this fight against Communism is made a fight against America's two great political parties the American people know that one of those parties will be destroyed and the Republic can't endure very long as a one-party system." "On one thing the Senator has been consistent." "Often operating as a one-man committee, he has traveled far interviewed many, terrorized some accused civilian and military leaders of the past administration of a great conspiracy to turn over the country to Communism." "I was extremely shocked when I heard that Secretary Stevens told 2 Army officers that they had to take part in the cover up of those who promoted and coddled Communists." "As I read his statement, I thought of that quotation, "On what meat..."" ""...does this our Caesar feed?"." "The questions is:" "...did the Civil Liberties Union supply you with an attorney?" "â€"They did supply an attorney." "â€"The answer is yes?" "The answer is yes." "Do you think this book did considerable harm?" "Its publication by an expression of the views contained in it?" "The sale of that book was so abysmally small it was so unsuccessful, that the question of its influence..." "You can go back to the publisher you'll see it was one of the most unsuccessful books he ever put out." "He's still sorry about it, just as I am." "Well, I think that's a compliment to American intelligence." "I'll say that." "The Reed Harris hearing demonstrates one of the Senator's techniques." "Twice he said "The American Civil Liberties Union was listed as a subversive front."" "The Attorney General's list does not and never has listed the ACLU as subversive, nor does the FBI or any other federal government agency." "And the American Civil Liberties Union holds in its files letters of commendation from President Truman President Eisenhower, and General MacArthur." "Earlier, the Senator asked, "Upon what meat does this our Caesar feed?"." "Had he looked three lines earlier in Shakespeare's "Caesar" he would have found this line, which is not altogether inappropriate." ""The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves."" "No one familiar with the history of this country can deny that Congressional committees are useful." "It is necessary to investigate before legislating but the line between investigating and persecuting is a very fine one and the junior Senator from Wisconsin has stepped over it repeatedly." "We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty." "We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law." "We will not walk in fear, one of another." "We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason if we dig deep in our history and doctrine and remember that we are not descended from fearful men not from men who feared to write, to associate, to speak and to defend the causes that were for the moment unpopular." "This is no time for men who oppose Senator McCarthy's methods to keep silent, or for those who approve." "We can deny our heritage and our history but we cannot escape responsibility for the results." "We proclaim ourselves, indeed as we are the defenders of freedom wherever it continues to exist in the world but we cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home." "The actions of the junior Senator from Wisconsin have caused alarm and dismay amongst our allies abroad and given considerable comfort to our enemies." "And whose fault is that?" "Not really his." "He didn't create this situation of fear he merely exploited it, and rather successfully." "Cassius was right." ""The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves."" "Good night, and good luck." "And we're out." "Nothing?" "Maybe nobody watched." "â€"We got nothing." "â€"I don't know. â€"Nothing." "Should I turn the phones back on, Mr Williams?" "Yes." "Now would be a good time for that." "Turn the phones on!" "Turn the phoâ€"" "Mr Friendly wants the phones on." "It's the Junior Senator calling collect." "Don't kid yourself." "It's Reed Harris thanking us for mentioning him." "I don't know whether all of you have seen what I just saw but I want to associate myself and this program with what Ed Murrow has just said and say I have never been prouder of CBS." "Senator McCarthy said today that he would demand equal free television..." "Stevenson had charged that the Senator made demagoguery and deceit the national policy... â€"Is that Hollenbeck?" "â€"Congratulations!" "Great show!" "Feel like a Scotch?" "I think everybody could use a Scotch." "â€"It's 3:30, early editions are out." "â€"I'm not worried about that." "Of course not." "Shirley, honey would you go across the street and get the early editions?" "â€"All of them?" "â€"Just get O'Brian!" "â€"Hey, watch my drink!" "â€"Yeah." "Okay." "Here we go." "â€"At last!" "â€"The Times. â€"The Times... â€"First?" "â€"Good." "â€"Who wrote it?" "â€"Jack Gould." "Gould..." "Edward R. Murrow's television program on Senator Joseph R. McCarthy was an exciting and provocative examination of the man and his methods." "It was crusading journalism of high responsibility and courage." "For TV so often plagued by timidity and hesitation the program was a milestone that reflected enlightened citizenship." "The program..." "Hold on!" "The program was no less an indictment of those who wish the problems posed by the Senator's tactics and theatrics would just go away and leave them alone." "That was Mr Murrow's and television's triumph and a very great one." "Here!" "Here!" "â€"He hated it." "â€"Yeah." "What's his beef?" "Send the New York Times a bottle of Scotch." "I already did." "How do you think we got that review?" "â€"How's the Post?" "â€"Pretty good!" "â€"What about O'Brian?" "â€"Uh, the same." "â€"Goon, read O'Brian!" "â€"I don't have it." "â€"Got it." "â€"Oh." "Here." "â€"There we go." "â€"Shirley, that..." "We can't say we were surprised at Murrow's "Hate McCarthy" telecast last evening, when his explosively one-sided propaganda edited with deviously clever selectivity from McCarthy's march against Communism, was finished last evening by equally Machiavellian coincidence the following telecast featured Murrow's PM protégé, Hollenbeck." "In an obviously gloating mood, Hollenbeck hoped viewers had witnessed his patron's triumph from and for the Left." "Soon." "Soon..." "Shirley, it's okay." "Go ahead, finish it." "â€"No, that's it." "That's it." "â€"Shirley, please, finish it." "The CBS has been in a lengthy "clean house of Lefties" mood." "The worst offenders on lesser levels have been quietly pushed out of the company." "Don Hollenbeck, a graduate of the demised pinko publication PM attacked conservative papers with sly and slanted propaganda." "He then proceeded through an equally tilted review of the day's events with McCarthy dominating his words, actions, attitudes." "Soon." "â€"It's O'Brian. â€"He didn't get the Scotch, that's all." "â€"Is it grammatically correct?" "â€"I'll have that cigarette, Ed." "â€"Thanks, Shirley." "â€"Oh. â€"Mmh. â€"Thank you." "Joe..." "Shirley..." "It doesn't matter." "To Jack Gould!" "â€"To Jack!" "To Jack!" "To Jack Gould!" "â€"To Jack Gould!" "I love Jack Gould!" "May he rest in peace." "â€"Hello, Jimmy." "â€"Fred, congratulations!" "â€"Thank you." "I got such a hangover to go along with the ulcer." "All the ad guys on the 3rd floor watched the show." "Got a good review in the New York Times." "Jack Gould." "We're putting out a press release saying that calls came in 15 to 1 in favor of the show. â€"Really?" "â€"Yeah. â€"15 to 1?" "â€"We got calls from everywhere." "â€"East Coast or West Coast?" "â€"Yeah." "Kansas City, Cincinnati..." "Mr Paley... â€"Morning, Fred." "â€"Morning, Mr Paley." "How's your wife?" "She's fine." "We're getting ready to move." "â€"Really?" "Where to?" "â€"Riverdale." "We found a nice house there." "It's nice there." "Yes, sir." "Excuse me." "Fred!" "McCarthy wants William Buckey to do his rebuttal." "I said no." "Yes, sir." "Hey, Johnny!" "â€"Radulovich has been reinstated." "â€"What?" "!" "Radulovich..." "Guys!" "Radulovich has been reinstated." "â€"Jesse!" "Jesse!" "â€"Where is Ed?" "â€"He's in the bullpen." "Why?" "What's going on?" "â€"Jess!" "Got some very good news." "Special announcement from the Secretary of the Air Force!" "Fellas!" "Listen up!" "Everyone!" "I have decided that it is consistent with the interests of the National Security to retain Lieutenant Radulovich in the United States Air Force." "Stop." "He is not, in my opinion, a security risk." "Full stop." "There you go." "Harold E. Talbott, Secretary from the Air Force." "Great job!" "â€"Make a copy of that for me!" "â€"I will do, Fred!" "Back to work, guys!" "We got a lot of work to do." "This means something." "â€"Good news, huh?" "â€"Congratulations!" "â€"This absolutely means something." "â€"Absolutely." "This is the start of..." "Palmer!" "The CBS lawyers wanna talk to you." "When?" "Tomorrow." "I don't want you to get paranoid, they're talking to everybody." "Any ideas?" "Just tell them what you know." "â€"Now is that testimony true?" "â€"No, sir, it is not." "Not at any time have I been a member of the Communist Party and I have never seen a Communist card." "â€"You've never seen a Communist card?" "â€"That's right." "Have you ever attended any Communist meetings?" "No, sir, never." "Have you ever subscribed to The Daily Worker?" "No, sir." "I didn't subscribe to it and I wouldn't pay for it." "Uh..." "Now, Mrs. Markward, who was working for the FBI who joined the Communist Party under orders from the FBI has testified that while she never met you personally at a Communist meeting that your name was on the list of Communists who were paying dues." "Uh..." "Can you shed any light upon that?" "No, sir." "I don't even know what the dues are or where they were paid." "â€"So you have never paid any money to the Communist Party." "â€"Is that correct?" "â€"That's right." "You've never paid any dues, payment..." "Thank you very much, Leo!" "Good work, Joe, Charlie." "Now what is the show?" "Is it defending Annie Lee Moss as not being a Communist?" "â€"Or is it her Constitutional rights?" "â€"Both. â€"The latter." "We're much better sticking out the Constitutional issues." "â€"Agreed?" "â€"The woman is not a Communist spy." "Joe McCarthy said that they have a spy in the Pentagon that spy has gotten into the code room and that that spy is Annie Lee Moss." "I've got New York Times reports." "McCarthy asserts he has a new red link to Army." "Quote, "Senator McCarthy charged today..."" ""...that the Army now employs a woman in its code room..."" ""...who was, and still may be, an active Communist."" "It's the front page of the New York Times." "No sooner is he done chastising the other committee members for wanting to push into the afternoon, than what?" "Seven questions in he ducks out, leaves..." "â€"Right." "â€"He leaves. â€"It's all over the headlines, all over the country." "Get me copies from any newspaper that printed anything about that assertion." "That's a good idea." "You should get the Cincinnati Inquirer." "â€"Chicago. â€"Couple other pieces I think we should include." "The fact that there's 3 Annie Lee Moss's in the phone book." "There are 2 Robert Halls, one's colored, one's white." "We have some footage of the empty chair." "I think that says it all." "Just that picture of McCarthy not..." "McCarthy leaving the hearing after 7 questions and then we'll cut to the shot of the chair." "â€"We gotta do something about it." "â€"All right, so..." "Excuse me." "Mr Murrow!" "McCarthy wants April 6th." "Thank you, Natalie." "Fine." "If Charlie shoots it, we get to see it first." "We should offer." "â€"It's a long shot." "â€"What the hell could McCarthy do?" "Is he gonna debate himself?" "We just used his words!" "Johnny!" "Johnny!" "We know what it's going to be." "He's going to come after me." "There's nothing more he can do." "He's gonna bet that a Senator trumps a newsman." "He'll lose." "Not if we're playing bridge." "â€"I'm sorry, guys." "I didn't mean to interrupt. â€"Hey, Don." "â€"It's getting fun now!" "â€"Ed, you have a minute?" "â€"Yes, I'll be right there." "â€"All right, boys." "Playtime's over." "We have 4 days to do a 29 minute show." "â€"Yeah. â€"All right." "All right, go ahead." "Hi, Mary." "Hello, Mr Hollenbeck." "Mr Murrow... â€"Could you give us a moment?" "â€"Sure." "Thank you, dear." "I have to ask you something, Ed." "It's about O'Brian." "â€"O'Brian doesn't matter." "â€"He's killing me, Ed." "He doesn't amount to that much in the newsroom." "We've got to let that guy have it." "We're not going after O'Brian." "I will not take on McCarthy and Hearst." "I can't defeat them both." "Just don't read the papers." "Or don't read O'Brian, anyway." "Okay." "I guess not." "Sorry, Don." "Although Mrs Moss offered to testify Senator McCarthy suggested that she was too sick." "â€"She agreed... â€"Mr Cohn wanted to know about Mrs. Moss's connection to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth so help you God?" "May we get your full name for the record, please?" "Annie Lee Moss." "â€"M-O-S-S?" "â€"That's right." "Mrs Moss, let me say for the record, for your information for the information of your counsel that you are not here because you are considered important in the Communist apparatus." "We have the testimony that you are, and have been, a Communist." "We are rather curious, however, to know how you suddenly were shifted from a worker in a cafeteria to the code room." "I am today much more interested in the handling of your case by your superiors than in your own personal activities." "However, counsel will question you about your own activities also." "â€"Mr Chairman!" "â€"We will not hear from counsel." "You have been told what the rule is." "If you have anything to say, say it through your client." "Chairman." "Did you begin work at the General Accounting Office in 1945?" "â€"Yes, sir." "And, prior to that time, had you been a cafeteria worker?" "Yes, I had." "I see." "While in the Pentagon, since 1950 have you had any connections with coded messages?" "Have you ever handled coded messages?" "â€"No more than to transmit 'em." "â€"Pardon me?" "No more than to transmit the message." "Than to transmit them?" "Did you transmit codes?" "To receive or transmit messages was all I had to do." "And I've never been into a courtroom in my life." "Do you know the type of classification... â€"Do you know if they were secret, top secret, confidential?" "â€"No, sir." "â€"You wouldn't know the degree of classification?" "â€"No, sir." "I see." "I'm afraid I'm going to have to excuse myself, I've got a rather important appointment to work on right now and I wonder if, Senator Mundt, you would takeover as Chairman?" "â€"Chairman." "Uh..." "â€"Cohn." "I have no further questions of this witness at this time." "We have the testimony of Mrs. Markward, the undercover agent for the FBI stating that Annie Lee Moss was a member, a dues-paying member of the Communist Party the Northeast Club of the Communist Party." "We have corroboration of that testimony by another witness who was called before the Committee and gave a sworn statement to the effect that she also knew Mrs. Moss as a member of the Northeast Club of the Communist Party." "She's already lost her job." "She's been suspended because of this action." "I'm not defending her." "If she's a Communist, I want her exposed." "But to make these statements as we've got corroborating evidence that she is a Communist, under these circumstances I think she's entitled to have it produced here in her presence and let the public know about it and let her know about it." "I don't like to try people by hearsay evidence." "I'd like to get the witnesses here and try them by testimony, under oath." "The Chair will rule that the comment of Mr Cohn be stricken from the record." "I didn't ask that, Mr Chairman!" "...whether we should try to produce a witness in public because the FBI may have her undercover and we don't want to..." "You can't strike these statements made by counsel here as to evidence that we're having and withholding." "You cannot strike that from the press nor from the public mind once it's planted there." "That's the evil of it!" "â€"Well, I'd look at it..." "â€"I don't think it's fair to a witness to a citizen of this country to bring them up here and cross-examine them then when they get through, say "The FBI has got something on you that condemns you."" "â€"The Chair agrees..." "â€"It is not sworn testimony it's convicting people by rumor and hearsay and innuendo." "You will notice that neither Senator McClellan or Senator Symington nor this reporter know or claim that Mrs. Moss was or is a Communist." "They simply claimed that she had the right to meet her accusers face to face." "One month ago tonight we presented a report on Senator Joseph R. McCarthy." "We labeled it as controversial." "Most of that report consisted of words and pictures of the Senator." "At that time, we said "If the Senator believes we have done violence to his words or pictures..."" ""...if he desires to speak, to answer himself..."" ""...an opportunity would be afforded him on this program."" "The Senator sought the opportunity after 3 weeks because he was very busy and wished adequate time to prepare his reply." "We agreed." "We placed no restrictions on the manner of the presentation of his reply and we suggested that we would not take time to comment on this particular program." "Here now is Senator Joseph R. McCarthy, junior Senator from Wisconsin." "Good evening." "Mr Edward R. Murrow, Educational Director of the CBS devoted his program to an attack on the work of the US Senate Investigating Committee and on me personally as its Chairman." "Now, over the past 4 years, he has made repeated attacks upon me and those fighting Communists." "Of course, neither Joe McCarthy nor Edward R. Murrow is of any great importance as individuals." "We are only important in our relation to the great struggle to preserve our American liberties." "Now ordinarily, I wouldn't take time out from the important work at hand to answer Murrow." "However, in this case I feel justified in doing so because Murrow is the symbol the leader and the cleverest of the jackal pack which is always found at the throat of anyone who dares to expose individual Communists and traitors." "And I am compelled by the fact to say to you that Mr Edward R. Murrow as far back as 20 years ago was engaged in propaganda for Communist causes." "For example, the Institute of International Education of which he was the Acting Director was chosen to act as a representative by a Soviet agency to do a job which would normally be done by the Russian secret police." "Mr Murrow, by his own admission, was a member of the IWW that's the Industrial Workers of the World a terrorist organization cited as subversive by an Attorney General of the United States." "Mr Murrow said on this program and I quote "The actions of the junior Senator from Wisconsin..."" ""...have given considerable comfort to the enemy."" "That is the language of our statute of treason, rather strong language." "If I am giving comfort to our enemies, I ought not to be in the Senate." "If, on the other hand, Mr Murrow is giving comfort to our enemies he ought not to be brought into the homes of millions of Americans by the CBS." "And I want to assure you that I will not be deterred by the attacks of the Murrows, the Lattimores, the Fosters The Daily Worker or the Communist Party itself." "And I make no claim to leadership." "Incomplete humility I do ask you and every American who loves this country to join with me." "[Everyone talks about the weather.]" "[Wherever you look on America's modern farms...] [...aluminum is on the job, helping the farmer do something about the weather.]" "[Aluminum for the farm is one more example of how Alcoa...] [...since 1999...] [...has continued to pioneer new uses for this vital metal.]" "[New uses of aluminum that mean better farms and better farming.]" "The aluminum from the nation's first and leading producer...] [..." "Alcoa, Aluminum Company of America.]" "Last week, Senator McCarthy appeared on this program to correct any errors he might have thought we made in our report of March 9th." "Since he made no reference to any statements of fact that we made we must conclude that he found no errors of fact." "He proved again that anyone who exposes him anyone who doesn't share his disregard for decency and human dignity and the rights guaranteed by the Constitution must be either a Communist or a fellow traveler." "I fully expected this treatment." "The Senator added this reporter's name to a long list of individuals and institutions he has accused of serving the Communist cause." "His proposition is very simple:" "...anyone who criticizes or opposes Senator McCarthy's methods must be a Communist." "And if that be true, there are an awful lot of Communists in the USA." "For the record, let's consider briefly some of the Senator's charges." "He claimed, but offered no proof that I had been a member of the Industrial Workers of the World." "That is false." "I was never a member of the IWW, never applied for membership." "The Senator charged that Professor Harold Laski a British scholar and politician, dedicated a book to me." "That's true." "He is dead." "He was a socialist, I am not." "He was a civilized individual who did not insist upon agreement with his political principles as a pre-condition for conversation or friendship." "I do not agree with his political ideas." "I ask, as he makes clear in the introduction dedicated the book to me, not because of political agreement but because he held my wartime broadcast from London in high regard." "And the dedication so reads." "I believed 20 years ago and I believe today that mature Americans can engage in conversation and controversy the clash of ideas, with Communists anywhere in the world without becoming contaminated or converted." "I believe that our faith, our conviction our determination are stronger than theirs and that we can successfully compete, not only in the area of bombs but in the area of ideas." "I have worked with CBS for more than 19 years." "The company has subscribed fully to my integrity and responsibility as a broadcaster and as a loyal American." "I require no lectures from the junior Senator from Wisconsin as to the dangers or terrors of Communism." "Having searched my conscience and my files I cannot contend that I have always been right or wise but I have attempted to pursue the truth with diligence and to report it even though, as in this case, I had been warned in advance that I would be subjected to the attentions of Senator McCarthy." "We shall hope to deal with matters of more vital interest next week." "Good night, and good luck." "In the last analysis, the Senator was perched on the television high dive and all prepared to make a resounding splash." "He jumped beautifully, but he neglected to check first where he was going to land." "It must have been a shock to discover that Mr Murrow had drained the water out of the pool." "â€"Is that the Times?" "Gould?" "â€"Yeah, it's Jack Gould." "â€"He's a hell of a writer." "â€"Yes, he is." "â€"If we can afford him!" "â€"Stanton's got a public opinion..." "Senate's investigating McCarthy." "What?" "The Army's charging that McCarthy and Cohn exercised undue pressure to get preferential treatment for Schine. â€"Who's the source?" "â€"Got a second source?" "â€"There isn't, but this is coming out in 2 hours." "â€"Who's heading up the investigation?" "â€"It's not gonna be McCarthy!" "â€"Really?" "â€"What happened?" "â€"Also get me the Washington Post!" "â€"What's going on?" "It's Williams for Jack Thompson." "The Senate's investigating McCarthy." "There is an added bit of comedy to this whole story." "The Committee cannot convene for several days because Senator McCarthy has a slight case of laryngitis." "And he must recover over the desert air of Arizona." "â€"But Stevens is going after him and it looks like Joe Welch. â€"Yeah." "They're gonna allow each side to call witnesses and be privy to other testimony." "â€"Fred, we still have a meeting!" "â€"We're gonna go to talk to Thompson." "No, thanks, Jack." "Bye." "Freddy, we're a hit." "Right up there with "Howdy Dowdy"!" "Can I have an outlet satellite, please?" "â€"74, 76,47." "Thank you." "â€"Murrayville 3, 1-2-7-6." "The fact of newscaster Don Hollenbeck's suicide yesterday does not remove from the record that peculiar history of the leftist slanting of news indulged consistently by the CBS." "Hollenbeck was what most astute students of CBS's strange and questionable new methods considered "typical of its newscasters"." "By Jack O'Brian." "Oh, yeah." "I like it like that." "One of the best programs I ever heard was called "CBS Views The Press"." "A great many people liked it, some didn't but no one ever called it anything but honest." "It was the work of an honest reporter." "Don Hollenbeck." "He also worked occasionally on "See It Now'." "He did the 11 pm news over some of these stations." "He had been sick lately and he died this morning." "The police said it was suicide... gas." "Not much of an obit." "But, at least we got our facts straight, and it was brief." "And that's all Don Hollenbeck would have asked." "Good night, and good luck." "Got to be in Philadelphia this morning." "What time is your train?" "9:00." "â€"Charlie going with you?" "â€"Uh-huh." "Here's a thought." "What if we're wrong?" "We're not wrong." "We're not going to look back and say we protected the wrong side?" "Protected them from what?" "In the name of what?" "What would we be preserving?" "Argument could be made, "for the greater good"." "Not once you give it all away." "It's no good then." "It's just a thought." "Senator, may we not drop this?" "We know he belonged to the Lawyer's Guild." "And Mr Cohn nods his head at me." "â€"I did you, I think, no personal injury, Mr Cohn. â€"No, sir." "â€"I meant to do you no personal injury. â€"No." "And if I did, I beg your pardon." "Let us not assassinate this lad further, Senator." "You've done enough." "â€"Let's..." "let's..." "â€"Have you no sense of decency, sir?" "At long last, have you left no sense of decency?" "â€"I know this hurts you, Mr Welch." "â€"Senator, I think it hurts you, too." "â€"I'd like to finish this." "â€"Have you some private reservation when you take the oath that you will tell the whole truth that lets you be the judge of what you will testify to?" "The answer is there's no reservation about telling the whole truth." "Thank you, sir." "Then tell us who delivered the documents to you!" "I don't want to mean that this new fashion is not chic." "â€"I think it's just no good for me." "â€"Uh, not for you." "Milko, anything you care to say on that subject?" "I think no comment." "It's got to be there." "If you can't find it, I cant write about it." "â€"Check again." "â€"Charlie said he dropped it off." "â€"Charlie said he dropped..." "â€"Shirley, can I see you a minute?" "â€"I got to call you back." "â€"Joe!" "You, too." "Close the door." "Have a seat." "â€"How are you?" "â€"Fine, thank you. â€"Swell." "Yeah." "Uh, you both are aware that there's a policy at CBS that no two employees can be married." "I want to ask you a question, but I don't want you to answer it." "I want you to consider it." "I know you two are married." "Everyone knows." "That's not my question." "In the next few weeks I have to lay off a couple of people." "We're making some significant cuts across the board." "I wanted you to know that because you could save someone else being fired." "I'm asking you to consider making this decision a little easier." "I don't need an answer now." "Just think about it." "Good." "â€"Well, Joe..." "â€"Well?" "â€"Sure we're gonna miss you around here. â€"I'll pack my things." "â€"I think it's for the best." "â€"We'll find out!" "Mrs Wershba..." "Everybody knew." "Natalie, did he say what it was about?" "No." "Just that he wanted to talk to you in his office." "Uh-oh!" "The problem isn't simply that you've lost your sponsor." "With Alcoa, "See It Now" still loses money." "The fee is 50,000 dollars." "Last week's episode we did for less than 50,000 dollars." "Fred, you're speaking beyond your competence." "We'll certainly find another sponsor." ""64,000 Dollar Question" brings in over 90,000 in sponsors and it costs one-third of what you do." "Ed, I've got Tuesday night programming that's number one." "People want to enjoy themselves." "They don't want a civics lesson." "â€"What do you want, Bill?" "â€"I don't want to get a stomach ache every time you take on a controversial subject." "I'm afraid that's the price you have to be willing to pay." "Let's walk very carefully through these next few moments." "The content of what we're doing is more important than what some guy in Cincinnati..." "â€"It's what you're doing, Ed." "Not me." "Not Frank Stanton." "You." ""CBS News", "See It Now" all belong to you, Bill." "You wouldn't know it." "â€"What is it you want?" "Credit?" "â€"I never censored a single program." "I hold on to affiliates who wanted entertainment from us." "I fight to keep the license with the very same politicians that you are bringing down and I never, never said no to you." "Never." "I would argue that we have done very well by one another." "I would argue that this network is defined by what the news department has accomplished." "And I would also argue that never saying no is not the same as not censoring." "Really?" "You should teach journalism." "You and Mr Friendly." "Let me ask you this:" "...why didn't you correct McCarthy when he said that Alger Hiss was convicted of treason?" "He was only convicted of perjury." "You corrected everything else." "Did you not want the appearance of defending a known Communist?" "I would argue that everyone censors, including you." "What do you want to do, Bill?" "I'm taking your program from a half an hour to an hour." "And it won't be a weekly program and it won't be Tuesday nights." "â€"When would it be?" "â€"Sunday afternoons." "â€"How many episodes?" "â€"5." "Why don't you just fire me, Bill?" "I don't think it's what either of us wants." "You owe me 5 shows." "â€"You won't like the subject matter." "â€"Probably not." "Fred, I'll need you for a moment." "â€"Thank you, Mary." "â€"Goodbye, Mr Friendly." "â€"He wants me to lay a few people off." "â€"I'm sure he does." "Let's do our first show about the downfall of television." "â€"Senate's gonna vote to censure McCarthy tomorrow. â€"Probably." "â€"And then what happens?" "â€"He sits in the back row. â€"Right." "â€"They keep him in the Senate." "They don't kick him out. â€"No, he stays." "Well, we might as well go down swinging." "Did you know the most trusted man in America is Milton Berle?" "See, you should have worn a dress!" "â€"How does a Scotch sound?" "â€"Scotch sounds good." "â€"Did you know Joe and Shirley were married?" "â€"Sure." "â€"Did everyone know?" "â€"Pretty much." "We are proud because from the beginning of this nation man can walk upright." "No matter who he is or who she is." "He can walk upright and meet his friend or his enemy." "And he does not fear that because that enemy may be in a position of great power that he can be suddenly thrown in jail to rott here without charges and with no recourse to justice." "We have the Habeas Corpus Act and we respect it." "I began by saying that our history will be what we make it." "If we go on as we are then history will take its revenge, and retribution will not limp in catching up with us." "Just once in a while, let us exalt the importance of ideas and information." "Let us dream to the extent of saying that on a given Sunday night the time normally occupied by Ed Sullivan is given over to a clinical survey on the state of American education." "And a week or two later, the time normally used by Steve Allen is devoted to a thorough-going study of American policy in the Middle East." "Would the corporate image of their respective sponsors be damaged?" "Would the shareholders rise up in their wrath and complain?" "Would anything happen other than a few million people would have received a little illumination on subjects that may well determine the future of this country and therefore the future of the corporations?" "To those who say, "People wouldn't look, they wouldn't be interested..."" ""...they're too complacent, indifferent and insulated" I can only reply:" "There is, in one reporter's opinion considerable evidence against that contention." "But even if they are right, what have they got to lose?" "Because if they are right and this instrument is good for nothing but to entertain, amuse and insulate then the tube is flickering now and we will soon see that the whole struggle is lost." "This instrument can teach." "It can illuminate and it can even inspire." "But it can do so only to the extent that humans are determined to use it towards those ends." "Otherwise, it is merely wires and lights in a box." "Good night, and good luck."

"Previously on Suits..." "Katrina Bennett." "She comes in, she takes over," "She acts like everything is her idea." "This wasn't about a job for me." "It was about having a life," "But I guess you wouldn't understand that." "So you're gonna punish me by giving me to Louis?" "Because you and I are done." "You make me want to be a better man." "I can't let you do this." "I regret where we are," "And I've been trying to get us back to where we were." "You're suggesting bribing a man to get you out of your bribery charge." ""In for a penny, in for a pound," mother always said." "Ava Hessington doesn't plead no contest." "She pleads guilty." "And you get to call it a win." "I can beat you, and I did." "You put me in that position again, and I'll do whatever I have to do to win." "Are you saying screw this deal, let's kick his ass?" "I'm saying take the deal." "We already did." "I win, you back me for managing partner." "You want to take down Jessica." "I do." "What time are you coming over?" "Um, I thought we were doing my place." "No, because whenever I'm at your place, all I can see is Tess in a bed sheet." "I'll be there at 9:00." "Bran bars are forbidden to first years." " Since when?" " Since two seconds ago." "Order of the quartermaster, who is no longer speaking with you." "Rachel." "Hmm?" "Can you please instruct the associate to your right to pass the nondairy creamer?" "Louis, as I have been trying to tell you in person, and in the note I left, and in your voice mail," "I'm sorry." "Do you know what nondairy creamer is, Rachel?" " Uh" " It's a metaphor." "The first sip, you think it's real, you know?" "After all, it wants you to believe that it's genuine and it's good, and it's gonna deliver on its promise." "But then with time, you realize that it's just a concoction of chemicals that's designed to disguise the truth that it's actually full of shit." "Then why are you drinking it?" "I'm lactose intolerant." "I don't accept." "Don't accept what?" "Whatever bullshit apology you're here to give me." "You gave me your word, and the second you found out that Mike was actually gonna say yes, you couldn't stand it." "You sold me out." "I'm not here to give you an apology." "I'm here to give you a case." "Those are the Hessington oil files." "Yeah, you know what, Harvey?" "I don't want your sloppy seconds." "That takeover attempt's gonna be dead in the water the second that Ava Hessington's settlement goes public." "Tony Gianopolous isn't going to just sell his shares and go away." "You're right." "You know what he's gonna do?" "He's gonna leverage his position, and he's gonna get as much greenmail as he can." "Which is exactly why I'm here." "You're better suited to beat him back than I am." "You think I don't know that?" "I know you know it." "I want you to know I know it." "Leave the box." "Louis, have you given any thought to a rebound associate?" "Harvey, come on, you know I'm not that kind of guy." "Come on, you have him file a few interrogatories, maybe pick up your dry cleaning, and then you cut him loose." "With no strings attached?" "Better men than you have done it." "No." " Yep." " Who, Baird?" "A week-long fling I ended six days too late." "Yeah, but Harvey," "I don't just want a superficial relationship, you know?" "I want a true mentee." "Someone I can take to the gun club or mudding or to the origami festival." "Louis, you're gonna find the right one." "Origami festival?" "Oh, my God." "Well, this is a surprise." "What?" "I just never thought I'd see the great Harriet Specter making her own copies." "Is that what this thing does?" "You've never made a copy in your life before, have you?" "Of course not, I'm too busy being a badass and worrying about my hair." "And your brilliant associate, Michelle Ross, does all the hard work for you anyway." "You're goddamn right she does." "I'm really sorry for what I said about having a life." "I know." "So we're good?" "We're good." "And you and Mike, you're good?" "Do you really think that Harvey had an emotional epiphany on his own?" "So you did forgive him?" "Yes." "Well, he doesn't know that." "Which is why I have a triple-whip, double-fat, extra shot mocha latte with caramel." "Fair enough." "But maybe it's time you told him." "So you decided not to go back to London?" "Well, we have some unfinished business to discuss, and I thought it best to do it in person." "The takeover attempt." "Tony Gianopolous." "Well, I've assigned it to another attorney, but before you express any concern, he's excellent." "Well, not only do I not have concerns," "I'm glad you've handed it off." "And why is that?" "Because that way I know you'll trust the man you're overseeing when you come and work for me." "I have to say, I'm flattered." "I don't want you to be flattered." "I want you to say yes." "As much success as I've had with that line myself," "I'm afraid I'm not an oilman." "The oil business is about oil as much as you being a lawyer is about the law." "Every day is a knife fight in a prison yard, and something tells me you like a good knife fight." "No rules in a knife fight." "Harvey, I've just lost my number two." "I can't think of anyone better to replace him." "Ava" "I'm a woman who gets what I want, and I am willing to pay for it." "Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to whore myself out." "I just prefer to have more than one client." "Harvey, what a coincidence." "Cameron, I'm surprised you can afford this place now that you're unemployed again." "Well, my temporary gig isn't over just yet." "You may think you have them fooled, Cameron, but they'll figure you out eventually." "You didn't." "What are you talking about?" "Ava Hessington, you're under arrest." " What?" " On what charge?" "Conspiracy to commit murder." "This is bullshit, Cameron." "We had a deal." "A deal where your client admitted to bribing a foreign official." "That Colonel that she paid off?" "After that, six people were killed by his troops." "I give my driver a tip, and then he runs over someone." "Doesn't mean I had anything to do with it." "But if the person he hit was me, sure would look like that." "What the hell are you talking about?" "All six people did whatever they could to stop your client from getting her pipeline." "If that's all you got, you don't have shit." "She did this, Harvey." "You don't know her." "Yeah, but I know you, and you don't give a damn about murder in some foreign country." "You took this case to stick it to me." "And I did." "She admitted that was a bribe because she never thought we would tie her to those deaths, and now I got her." "And you didn't see it coming, and there's nothing you can do about it."

"Whatever you have to to get Ava out, because Cameron's gonna try and keep her in." "You really think he's gonna try and deny her bail?" " I know it." " Harvey, one thing." "Hey, look, if you have a problem defending someone who's accused of murder, I don't want to hear it." "Look, you won't, 'cause I'm willing to do whatever it takes to win whether she's innocent or not." "Then come with me." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "I'm going to see Ava with you?" " Yep." " Yeah, baby!" "Butch and Sundance are back." "Ooh, no go." "What do--what do-- what do you mean, "no go"?" "I mean, you're not butch or Sundance." "Why not?" "'Cause Butch was the leader, and Sundance was the gunslinger, and I'm both." "Okay, but Sundance couldn't swim, and Butch never shot anyone, so that makes you a loser." "Better than a fraud." "I think it's time for some new material." "You write Midnight Train to Georgia, you don't just sing it once." "And speaking of Butch Cassidy, let's go start a knife fight."

"Hessington oil's earnings per share and market cap growth over the last 11.2 years." "Somebody ask you to do this?" "I didn't do it because somebody asked me to, Louis." "I did it because I want in on the case." "You know, you realize something like this would entail working hand in glove and possibly even a trip or two to the mud club." "I'm in." "And what makes you think you're good enough to be my personal associate?" "I don't want to be your personal associate." " What?" " I'm a fifth year." "I don't want to be anyone's personal associate, but I know how good you are, you know how good I am." "We can use each other." "Hmm." "Like a symbiotic relationship." "Like between a phytoplankton and a whale." "I'm not familiar with their specific dynamic, but, yes, exactly." "Well, Katrina, I kind of had enough of being used by associates looking to move one rung up the ladder, so I suggest you get the hell out of my office and find yourself another whale." "Did you know about these murders?" "I knew there was a demonstration, it turned ugly, and that people died." "Did you know those people were the leaders of the demonstration?" "No." "Did you know the military was responsible?" "All I know about these deaths is that they happened." "On your land." "We own thousands of acres." "It's a volatile country." "People kill each other on a regular basis." "So you just chalk it up to coincidence that the six leaders of this demonstration, against your company's policies, on your company's private property, were murdered?" "It was reported as a combat incident, not a murder." "You just said all you know about these deaths is that they happened." "Now you know it was a combat incident." "Which one is it?" "Harvey, what the hell is this, and who the hell does he think he is?" "Mike's just doing his job." "Well, Mike, every death in that country is reported as a combat incident, and for your information, there were thousands of people opposed to our pipeline." "That's all we need right now." "Would you please excuse us?" "How exactly did you manage to get your head so far up your own ass?" "You told me to take this deal." "I did, and now here I am." "I didn't know about these murders." "What you don't seem to believe is neither did I." "We were doing our job." "Cameron Dennis will come at you with worse." "Do you think I did this?" "That's irrelevant." "I just want to make sure I know all the evidence against you." "I have no idea what the evidence is, because I had nothing to do with it, and you say it's irrelevant, but it's not irrelevant to me." "Do you think I did this?" "Do you want a lawyer who thinks you're innocent and loses or a lawyer who doesn't want to know and wins?" "You know the answer to that." "Then don't ask me that question again, 'cause after I win and you're free, what I think won't matter." "So what did she want to talk to you about?" "She wanted to know if you were single." "Listen, when you get back to the office" "Wait, what do you mean?" "What do you mean, what do I mean?" "I mean, I thought we were gonna go back together." "I don't know, I thought we could get some lunch or something." "Like what?" "I don't know." "Like, maybe steak or something." "It's the middle of the day." "Yeah, Harvey, that's when people usually eat lunch." "This is about Louis, isn't it?" "What?" "No." "Maybe." "So I'm supposed to take you mudding now?" "That's not the point." "Look, let's just concentrate on winning this thing, and when it's over, we can talk about lunch, dinner, or anything else." "Whoa, whoa, you really mean that?" "No." "Butch and Sundance are back." "What are you doing?" "Dropping off something for Harvey." "You don't have any cases with Harvey." "I will when he sees what's in here." "No." "You're not taking credit for my ideas again." "Harvey's gonna know I built this airplane." "Harvey's not gonna know anything." "You're a little late to the party." "He and I are working together again." "I'm not looking to take your place." "Oh, really?" "You just happened to prepare a document for him, thinking he didn't have an associate?" "He's working a case that I'm right for." "That's not how it works around here." "I handle all of his cases." "Does Harvey know that?" "What Harvey knows is that I'm the "A" team, and you're the "B" team, so you can leave the folder, or you can take it with you, but if you're looking to ride some partner's coattails," "you're gonna have to look somewhere else." "Well, the "B" team worked at the D.A.'s office and came up with a defense strategy based on a specific knowledge of Cameron Dennis." "The "A" team quotes him movies." "We'll see who Harvey does and doesn't value." "Katrina, Mike is Harvey's guy." "When he tells you he's speaking for Harvey, he's speaking for Harvey." "And please don't come into this office when I'm away from my desk again." "Boy, am I glad I never snuck into Harvey's office when you weren't around before." "Thanks, Donna." "I still expect free, exotic, caffeinated beverages for the foreseeable future." "Cameron Dennis." "Son of a bitch." "He played us." "He slid that guilty plea right by." "I should've seen it coming." "We should've seen it coming." "I'm the one that convinced you to take that deal." "What's done is done." "Question is, what's being done?" "I'm working on getting Ava off these charges, and I got Mike working on getting her out on bail." "So you're back with him." "What's the point of having a right arm without a right hand?" " Good." " Is it?" " What do you mean?" " I mean, he threatened you." "I've never known you to be forgiving with someone who threatened you." "I've never known you to be particularly forgiving either." "Um, I'm sorry, I'll come back." "It's okay." "We're all good." "We're good?" "When you work with tigers, once in a while, they're gonna take a swipe at you." "I like working with tigers." "Of course, when they get out of hand, you have to put them down." "Now, where are we on the prep for Ava's bail hearing?" "Well, I was thinking, since Cameron used the settlement to double-cross us, why don't we use the bail hearing to double-cross him?" "Your Honor, this is not a Ponzi scheme or insider trading, this is cold-blooded murder." "Prosecution moves that bail be denied." "That's ridiculous." "My client's not going anywhere." "She's got a business to run." "Let's look at how she does business." "Less than 48 hours ago, she admitted to bribery." "You want to talk about how she does business?" "Let's talk about how you do business." "Your Honor, I have a list of 87 murder cases that Cameron Dennis tried as a D.A." "In each instance, he allowed reasonable bail to be set." "I allowed bail because gangbangers don't have a fraction of Ms. Hessington's resources." "You allowed bail because you didn't give a damn about those guys, and this is personal." "It's why you took the case, it's why you hid a witness, and it's why you negotiated a settlement in bad faith." "My chambers now." "You bring an accusation like that into my courtroom, you better be able to back it up." "Your Honor, when I told him he took this case to stick it to me, he said, quote, "I did, and now I got her, and you didn't see it coming."" "You know what, Your Honor?" "He's right." "I am sticking it to him." "Guilty as charged, just like his client." " Okay, let me" " That's enough." "I am not a washing machine." "You two are not here to air your dirty laundry." "She admitted to bribing a Colonel in the army, and that same army killed these people." "Three environmentalists died in the polar ice cap." "You think she killed them also?" "Maybe I'll look into that." "You gonna leak it to a corporate raider too?" "What's he talking about?" "I'm talking about the fact that he leaked this whole thing to Tony Gianopolous." "This is a personal vendetta, and he has no concrete evidence against my client." "Not only do I want no bail," "I want you to throw this case out right now." "Well, I'm not gonna do that." "But I'll tell you something, Mr. Dennis," "I am setting bail at $1." "And if you don't have any evidence," "I'm gonna hear his motion for summary judgment, rule in his favor, and this trial is going to be over before it even starts." "Bloody hell." "Um, excuse me, do you not see me sitting here?" "Yeah, I saw you." "I just chose to ignore you." "You must like living dangerously." "I do, and that's why stopping here, doing this with you, well, that's playing with fire." "There's nothing wrong with a little casual conversation." "What happens when casual conversation becomes serious fun?" "Oh, you're good." "I can promise you, I'm better than good." "Stephen Huntley, senior partner, London office." "Donna." "Just Donna?" "Yeah, it's like a name and a title in one." "You'll see." "I've heard." "Secretarial pool's been buzzing about some new, feisty ginger for a fortnight." "Look, if you're trying to charm your way into Harvey's office, it's not gonna happen." "Mm, no, I'm not trying to charm my way into Harvey's office." "Oh, what were you trying for?" "Well, actually, I was gonna try for" "Donna, I need you to send Louis everything we have on Tony Gianopolous." "He's running point." "Harvey, a pleasure." "I'm Stephen." "I know who you are, and I know why you're here." "You're Darby's fixer, and you're here to hijack my case." "Did you text him whilst we were" "You said you're good?" "I'm good too." "This isn't over." "Is that a threat?" "Mm, you take it in whatever tone pleases you the most." "You're right." "I am Darby's fixer, but I'm not here to hijack anything." "When I got on a plane at Heathrow, this was still merely bribery." "I've only just learned of the murder charges now as I touched down." "It just means the timing changed, not the motive." "Forget the bombshell the prosecution's just dropped." "Let's talk about the bombshell outside your office." "Donna?" "She's got a body like Elizabeth Hurley and the sass of Maggie Thatcher." "I went out with Liz." "Don't sell her short in the sass department." "Oh, I'm well aware of her sass." "'99." "'98." "Really?" "Well, you're obviously a better man than I am." "Don't beat yourself up." "You got plenty of company." "By the way, before you say anything else, she can hear every word we say." "Now, I've got a murder charge to defend, so why don't you tell me why the hell you're really here?" "Well, I'm here to oversee cultural integration." "Cultural integration." "Standard part of the merger, been on the books for two weeks." "And why do you need me?" "Well, smoothing over these transitional periods is never easy." "It's not child's play." "You're an influencer here." "People listen to you." "I want you to help them listen to me." "I get it." "You want me to pave the way for you." "Here's the thing." "I don't pave the way for people." "People pave the way for me." "Mm." "I get it." "Steer clear of you, and you and I will get along just fine." "Welcome to New York." "So, have you met Stephen Huntley yet." " I did." " What'd you think?" "Turns out we have some things in common." "Turns out he didn't show up empty-handed." "That's $1/2 million." "Mmhmm, first dividend check of the merger." "That was my buy-in amount." "Maybe it wasn't such a bad idea after all." "Wait a second." "What was your check for?" "More than that." "1.2?" "I'm not telling." "1.5?" "You're three times more valuable than me?" "Oh, I don't think that." "The check thinks that." "Does the check think the only thing that guy's here for is cultural integration?" "The check wasn't born yesterday." "He is to Darby what you are to me, and I wouldn't send you to do that." "No, you wouldn't." "So what'd you tell him?" "I told him as long as he steers clear of me, he'll be fine." "You told him wrong." "I want you to find out what the hell that guy's up to." "She's right, you know." "Cultural integration's scheduled for a week." "Stephen Huntley booked a room at the Peninsula for a month." "Is it a room or a suite?" "It's important." " A suite." " Good work." " It's what I do." " There's only one problem." "Jessica just told me to look into him one second ago." " I anticipated her needs." " No, you didn't." "I anticipated your needs?" "You anticipated your needs." "And by "your needs," I mean" "Okay, my needs are not the topic of this conversation." "All I'm saying is, you went to the trouble of specifically finding out he booked a suite." " W" " Save it." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "Not if it's about working with Harvey on this case." "Look, this isn't easy for me to do, but for some reason, you and I keep locking horns, and now I'm out in the cold." "I know how I got here, but I don't know how to get back." "What do you want, Katrina?" "I want to figure out a way we can coexist in this firm." "You want to know a way?" "When you see me coming, give me a wide berth." "You know what?" "I'm apologizing to you." "You don't have to be a dick." "I'm a dick?" "You have treated everyone at this firm below your station like shit." "Now all of a sudden you want to be my best friend?" "Oh, I get it." "This isn't about me and you." "This is about me and your little girlfriend." "Rachel is not my girlfriend." "This has nothing to do with her, and this conversation is over." "Funny how you know exactly who I was talking about." "Thank you." "Harvey, to what do I owe the pleasure of this lunch?" "I wanted to thank you for the check." "Oh, I thought that'd change your attitude." "It did." "In fact, you gave something to me," "I want to give something to you." "What is it?" "It's a hotel bill." "I paid it." "Then I checked you out." "Hope you left housekeeping a hefty gratuity." "You're not here to deliver checks or make smooth transitions, and if you're not gonna tell me the truth, you don't need to be here at all." "Well, that's gonna make it extremely difficult for me to help you take over the firm from Jessica." "I know about your deal with Edward." "He sent me here to help." "Why didn't you tell me this before?" "Well, you told me Miss Moneypenny was listening." "I didn't know whether you wanted her to hear." "So you're here to help me take over the firm from Jessica?" "What exactly does that mean?" "You know what it means." "I don't need you baby-sitting me on this case." "I'm not a baby-sitter." "I'm a fixer." "I'm here to help you." "Now why would you turn that down?" "What's to stop you from using this to take over the firm from me?" "I'm not like you." "I don't care to have my name on the door." "So you're here just to help me." "You don't need anything in return." "Your car club has a pair of mint 1956 Porsche speedsters." "You want to drive one?" "I want to race you." "Harvey, fancy meeting you here." "Cameron, you keep showing up unannounced, and I'm not sure why." "I can meet you anytime, anywhere, because I'm not afraid of you." "Well, you should be." "I've got five witnesses who place the Colonel that your client bribed at the scene of those murders." "You want evidence?" "Here it is." "See you in court." "We can schedule it for anytime, anywhere." "You still don't want my help?" "No, I don't." "I don't trust you." "I'm not telling you to trust me." "I'm telling you that this is what Darby wants." "Well, Darby isn't here." "Hey, you wanted to talk to me?" "Hey, yes." "So I know you don't want me fighting your battles for you, and I didn't." "Uhoh." "I just don't want you to get upset with me." "What?" "I went to talk to Donna about her and me, and you came up." "What about me?" "That it's time for you to be accepted back." " That's why she did it." " Did what?" "I caught Katrina trying to horn in on my case." " Again?" " Yeah, I know." "Donna walked in in the middle, and she took her to the woodshed." "So you're okay with what I did?" "I'm more than okay." "Not only did Katrina slink away, but she came back later with her tail between her legs, looking to be my friend." "Well, she is not your friend." "She's definitely not my friend." "She most certainly isn't." "What are you talking about?" "Um..." "After I told her that she could take her friendship and shove it up her ass, she said that this whole thing was about you and that I was just trying to protect my girlfriend." "She called me your girl--girlfriend?" "Mmhmm." "And what did you say?" "I mean, what-- what could I say?" "We're keeping it a secret." "I-I said you weren't." "Good." "Yeah." "Am I?" "Don't you know?" "Well, we never really talked about it." "You mean, I've never really asked." "Nobody asks anybody anymore." "Whoops." "Sorry." "Are you okay?" "Rachel Elizabeth Zane, will you be my girlfriend?" "Yes." "What the hell is this?" "What?" "I'm working with Harvey, my best friend." "Harvey gave birth to me." "When you see me coming, give me a wide berth, because I'm a dick." "I'm a dick, dick, dick." "I'm working with Harvey, my best friend..." "Oh, my God." "You're not the fool anymore, Louis." "Mike Ross is." "And I can't take it back." "I put myself out on a limb for you, so if you say no to me, I won't just be a fool." "I'll be done." "Ugh, this means war." "And I am not taking any prisoners." "If you think I'm staying out of it, you're crazy." "I don't want you out of it." "I want you in it." "So what are we gonna do?" "Nothing right now." "I need to help Harvey." "I don't believe it." "It's a setback, but it's going away." "And what exactly does that mean?" "I looked into three of the witnesses, and all three were affiliated with a guerilla faction within the last five years." "We're gonna paint the entire incident as a firefight between the government and armed rebels." "Which, as you pointed out, is exactly how it was reported in the first place." "They're still placing the Colonel at these murders." "I don't think you understand." "This is what I found in two hours." "In another day-- I understand perfectly." "You want to tear these people down in court." "Well, I'm suggesting they never get there." "We find out how to get to them, and we pay them off." "Bribery is what got you into this situation." "Now you think that's your way out?" "That's what you said when I suggested that with Nick, and I listened to you." "And I was able to neutralize him without a payoff." "You were able to get Cameron Dennis to offer me a deal that's now being used against me." "And even if you can impugn these five witnesses, your way still goes to a verdict." "Mine doesn't." "It doesn't if we don't get caught." "Then don't get caught." "We're not going to get caught, because we're not doing this." "You told me you'd do anything it takes to win." "Remember that?" "You'll steal the rival pitcher's girlfriend the night before the big game." "This is the night before the big game." "Ms. Hessington, what you're proposing is a crime." "A crime to get me out of a crime I didn't commit." "You said it doesn't matter whether you believe me or not." "It doesn't." "But it does, because if you thought I was innocent, you'd do this." "I won't." "Then you're fired." "And I'll find someone who will." "Where did you get this picture?" " I friended her on Facebook." " She accepted?" "Not as me." "I found an intern at the D.A.'s office that she worked with two years ago who doesn't have a Facebook account." "Mm." "See?" "You're not the only one who can away with fraud." "Okay, step aside." "Aha." "Holy shit." "Yeah, you do not want to get on my bad side." "I can see that." "What are you working on?" "Oh, let me rephrase." "Why the hell aren't you working on Ava's defense?" "Uh, because we got fired." "That's no reason not to work on her defense." "Look, Harvey," "I know we're just getting back on the same team and all, and I don't want to disagree with you, but it's actually a very excellent reason." "Wrong." "Odds are Cameron's expecting her to do this, and we get a call tomorrow to get her out of a new bribery charge." "And then whatever lawyer she replaces us with can't stand up to Cameron in court." "'Cause he's not gonna stop working on this." "And neither are we." "One more thing." "Don't." "Don't what?" "You think I don't know what you were doing in there with Rachel?" "You saw it too?" "I did, and I need you to let it go." "Wait, so you're saying she threw a punch, and you don't want me to throw a punch back?" "I'm saying we're in the middle of a murder trial, and I need you to let it go." "Harvey, is there something you'd like to tell me about Ava?" "Yeah, some clients can be a pain in the ass." "Some ex-clients too." " Temporary situation." " Good, good." "'Cause I just wanted to make sure you were still all over it." "Did you want to make sure the sun was still shining and the sky was still blue?" "I'd be humble after I got fired." "If I ever got fired." "I don't know what it's like in the D.A.'s office now, but if I did what you did to someone who was with me in the trenches," "I'd be done, like you are now." "You have no idea what the story is between me and Mike." "I don't care what the story is." "You hired me, and then you hung me out to dry." "You don't give me cases." "You don't give me a word." "What am I supposed to do?" "We both know how you got here." "You expect more from me?" "That's not my problem." "I do know how I got here, which is how I know you're not gonna fire me." "So keep your empty threats to yourself." "When I said, "you're done,"" "I meant your future at this firm is over, because you will never be anything more than you are right now." "And if you ever do anything like that to Mike Ross again," "I don't give a shit what our deal was." "You'll be gone." "Hey." "Remember that thing we were gonna do to Katrina?" "We don't need to do it anymore." " What are you talking about?" " Harvey just did it." "He went to talk to her?" "He laid her out." "Yeah, you don't want to be on his bad side either." "You know, we could still send her that thing." "Really?" "No, actually, Harvey told me not to." "So?" "He's not so tough." "Yeah, but we could take him." "What's he gonna do?" "Talk to us with his words?" "Wag a finger at us." "Maybe give us a time-out." "Maybe even slap us with a lawsuit." "High five." " Okay." " Okay." "We don't need to bribe the witnesses." "We need them to sue us, right?" "The alien tort statute allows foreign nationals to bring civil claims in U.S. court." "And then we settle." "Might be a payoff, but it's a legal payoff." "And the witnesses aren't Americans, so Cameron can't subpoena them." "Exactly." "Good, but they need a legitimate claim, or we could be on the hook for bribery ourselves." "What are they suing us for?" "Harvey, they witnessed multiple murders." "That would be emotionally distressing." "Might even suffer from P.T.S.D." "Which would prevent them from getting on the plane and testifying in our case." "Get it going." "You got a lawyer to take the other side?" "I have someone in mind, but we need a way to get those witnesses to go for it." "No, right now our problem isn't getting them to go for it." "It's getting to Ava before she gets someone to bribe them." "Hey, Harvey." "I heard about what you did with Katrina." "I know I asked you not to, and I wasn't going to, but I saw her, and I couldn't help it." "I get it." "She brings that out in people, but listen, just don't let it happen again." "Son of a bitch." "I'd call you a lying son of a bitch, but you were true to your word." " Yeah, what word's that?" " You're not like me." "I didn't hijack your client, Harvey." "Oh, no, you waited for her to fire me, and then you swooped in with an illegal fix." "You're wrong." "You gonna look me in the eye and tell me you didn't just meet with her about bribing those witnesses?" "That's exactly what I met with her about." "She asked me if I was willing, and I said I was." "I also told her that in this particular situation, it'd be counterproductive." "You looked into Cameron Dennis." "She bribes those witnesses, he'll be lying in wait." "And that's what you told her?" "Yeah, amongst other things." "You told her to stick with the lawyer she picked in the first place?" "More or less." "Harvey, listen, I told you, you don't have to trust me, okay?" "But Darby does." "And Darby wants this win." "Therefore, so do I." "I'm guessing you think that means that I owe you." "No, I think it means you're gonna pay me." "You look happy." "Dodged a bullet." "You got Ava back." "Stephen got Ava back." "Turns out he's here to help." "And you believe that?" "He got Ava back." "Mike's on his way over there as we speak." "Mike?" "He made the call." "Why not let him score the touchdown?" "And you must have someplace else to be." "Blonde or brunette?" "Neither." "I have to go repay a debt." "So once this is all taken care of, I wire the money." "And Cameron's witnesses never take the stand." "Harvey told me this maneuver was your idea." "I'm not one to take credit, but, yes, it was." "He trusts you, doesn't he?" "I like to think so." "So you know how he thinks?" "What I know about how Harvey thinks is that you can never be sure what Harvey's gonna think." "What do you think he thinks?" "I think that he's not really interested in whether you did it or not." "He's interested in what the evidence is and what we can make it say." "I want to know." " Then you should ask him." " I'm asking you." "I have no idea whether Harvey thinks you had those people murdered or not, but even if I did, I would never say anything because he wouldn't want me to." "He's picked a good number two." "I like to think so." "What do you think?" "I think it's my job to represent you to the best of my ability." "To say anything else would be as big a betrayal to Harvey as discussing what he thinks." "Let me guess, you won the Testosterone 500, and you're here to brag." "Actually, Harvey took the checkered flag, and I'm here for you." "Why would I go out with a loser?" "Well, losing has its benefits." "If he thinks he's a better man than me, then he won't get jealous." "Oh, Harvey's got nothing to be jealous of." "Not yet." "He will be if you take a ride with me." "That could be dangerous." "Yeah." "Look, if you think a fancy car and some smooth talk is all it takes to get to me..." "Okay, I understand." "I'm sure I can find another connoisseur of the theater to take to MacBeth." "Oh, your research came up short." "I've already seen MacBeth." "Not with me, not in the front row, and certainly not with Daniel Day-Lewis." "I'm in trouble." "This is everything I have on Tony Gianopolous." "Read it, summarize it, and make it your life." "I won't let you down." "Welcome to team Litt." "Louis." "Thank you." "Here it is." "Fully executed settlement." "Signed, sealed, delivered." "Who'd you get to represent the other side?" "Harold Gunderson." "Louis' whipping boy?" "Yeah, he works for Allison Holt now, which is actually kind of perfect, 'cause everyone knows she would never do anything to help us." "But I got Harold the job, so" "He owes you one." "Not anymore." "What'd you say?" "What?" "When Ava asked if I thought she was guilty." "I told her that I had no idea what you thought and it was none of her business what I thought." "Good answer." "What about you?" "You want to know what I think?" "I know what you think, and I think it too." "She did it." "We, uh..." "We never had drinks before." "I know." "Harvey, we just admitted to each other that we're defending a murderer." "Doesn't really seem like cause for celebration." "It's not a celebration." "Remember when you said Butch and Sundance were back?" "They weren't." "What do you mean?" "I mean it's time I told you" "I made a deal with Darby to take over the firm from Jessica."

" Earl Kemp Long." " Sir." "Some people call me "unkempt" Long." "It's a pleasure, Your Honor." "That's some show you got there, gal." "Powerful expression of basic human needs." "I think of myself as a storyteller." "We could all use a good story, couldn't we?" "I suppose you heard about me." "I heard you own half the congressmen in Louisiana." "That's a goddamn lie." "I've never bought a congressman." "I rent 'em." "That way you don't waste taxpayers' money?" "You got a fine grasp of politics." "I guess I've got... a soft spot for politicians." "The fine governor of Louisiana... would be honored to have one of your stockings." "Only if I can tie it around your neck." "You mean, like a noose?" "Yeah, but a pretty one." "I got enough stuff around my neck." "Then would the fine governor of Louisiana... be interested in powderin' my behind?" "It's time for le grand finale magnifique." "I never thought a man in your position... would take so long making' up his mind." "If I could walk like that," "I'd walk everywhere I went." "Miss Starr!" "Miss Starr, I'd like to see you again." "Can I trust you?" "Hell, no!" "No?" "What a wonderful thing to say." "Goddamn it, La Grange." "I do have a weakness... for tough-minded, iron-willed, independent women with big hooters." "Call it a weakness if you want to, but in my mind... you're diggin' yourself a grave with these women." "I hope so." "Oh, yeah." "Hey, Governor!" "I'm talkin' to you!" "Looks like you been doin' a lot of tomcattin'." "Ain't none of your goddamn business, Deeter." "You little pissant!" "They say you backin' that damn nigger rights bill." "You're a federal congressman." "Votin' rights is a state matter." "Keep out of my business." "You backed it 'cause they vote for you, you nigger-lover!" "I don't believe you understand... the issues in this campaign." " All right, let's talk issues." " Over here." "You got a sister, two cousins, and a granddaddy on the state payroll." "That's an issue." "You want to keep... the family tongue in the public trough, just remember who's fillin' it with slop." "If my family's a burden on the state," "I'll switch them to the federal trough." "The only issue is niggers." "Tell us whether you're votin' "yes" or you're voting' "no."" "Damn!" "You tell me whether that means yes or no." "You bit me." "You're damn right I did." "He apologizes, and I've had an uplifting'experience." "Come here, son." "I have a hunch that tomorrow morning, we're gonna read in the Times-Picayune... of a generous contribution... to the Louisiana War Veterans Home, in the name of this enlightened congressman." "Cough up, son." "Thank you." "The Kit Kat Club's still open, isn't it boys?" "One night of sin" "Is what I'm now paying'for" "The things I did and I saw" "Would make the week stand still" "Dear Mama," "I think my singing career is about to take off." "Tonight," "I met the fine governor of the great state of Louisiana." "They tell me he's a real gentleman, a wonderful speaker, and even a gourmet cook." "Hello." "Time to belly up to some crawfish étouffée, a nice slice of Paris in the pot." "With all due respect to you and your fine étouffée, we do have some business to discuss." "The downstate Catholic Democratic regulars... don't want to commit themselves to your reelection campaign." "Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah." "Well, lookee what we got here." "Welcome to Roosevelt Hotel." "Ladies and gentlemen," "I would like to introduce Miss Blaze Starr." "She is a performing artist on the local cultural scene, and an epic storyteller." "Miss Starr, I would like to introduce you... to some of my yes-men and their lovely wives." "This is Chester Thibodeaux and J.W. La Grange," " and the rest of'em." " Bon soir." "Bon soir." "That fellow down there is representative Eldon Tuck." "He invited himself up here tonight... to explain some problem that he imagines is on the horizon." "Good evenin', ma'am." "No, I ain't imagining' nothing." "Everybody knows it's illegal... to succeed yourself the way you are plannin'." "Earl's already got that figured out." "He's gonna resign the day before his term ends." "His lieutenant governor will take over for 24 hours." "That way, Earl don't succeed hisself." "I'm sorry, but the legislature knows that." "They are in the process of slipping through a bill... that will make it necessary for the governor to resign... nine months before the end of his term." "I'm afraid they got you this time." "Got me, hell!" "They just shot themselves another wooden duck is all." "They dumber than I thought." "I wonder what them bastards would do if, for example," "I was to run for lieutenant governor." "And on the same ticket, for example, we was to run some broke-down claiming horse for governor, like my good friend Thibodeaux there." "Me, for governor?" "For 24 hours." "And the day after we win, you resign and I reascend to the governor's chair." "They'll be dancin' in the streets." "I bet nobody ever heard of that one before." "That's a good idea." "Damn fine." "Excuse me." "You know where the ladies room is?" "For whatever reason might she be needin' a ladies room?" "Shh!" "For whatever reason might you be needin' a ladies room?" "'Cause I need to take a pee." "Ladies pissoir is that-a-way, and to the left." " Ma'am." " Ma'am." "Hmm." "I'd like to be governor for a day." "Get you one of them rubber stamps, a parking space of your own." "You'd have a hell of a time." "Now that will fly, won't it?" "Well," "I don't know if it will fly or not, but it will sure as hell flap its wings." "On behalf of my constituents, we would be proud to commit our support... to the fine ticket ofThibodeaux and Long." "Long and Thibodeaux!" "Long and Thibodeaux." "Long and Thibodeaux, but we do have... one small favor to ask." "What's that?" "Go a little light on the nigger issue." "I don't make deals." "What kind of governor do you think I am?" "That's my brother, Huey." "Oh." "Yeah, a great man." "Could have been president of the United States." "But back in 1935, he ran into a small problem." "What small problem?" "A bullet." "God rest his soul." " I'm sorry." " Don't be." "I busted my butt for him, and he wouldn't give me the time of day... unless he wanted somethin'." "Let's talk about somethin'else." "What's that?" "That is the biggest bobcat ever shot in Louisiana." "You shouldn't kill animals." "I didn't know you was the animal type." "Maybe we should go in the other room, so people don't get the wrong idea about us." "Well, we wouldn't want that to happen." "Where'd everybody go?" "Into the great Louisiana night." "You ought to know... that old age and treachery... is gonna triumph over youth and good intentions." " Mister Governor!" " Them's a big pair of rascals you got." " You mean my eyes?" " I mean your titties." "Call me Earl." "Earl." "Good night." "Wait a minute." "Miss Starr, wait a minute." "Look." "Perhaps I've misled you." "Perhaps I've implied things about my character, but I can't help it." "The scent of musk precedes me." "Just 'cause I fail to deliver upon your expectations, it don't mean that I am a C-U-N-T." "You ain't no such thing." "I didn't want my outward presentation to confuse you." "Well, you ain't like any stripper I'm used to." "I know, 'cause I ain't a stripper." "I'm a dancer." "Can I ask you a personal question?" "Yes, sir." "Are you registered to vote?" "No, sir." "I just moved to Louisiana." "Sign this." "You look like a Democrat to me." "Well, did you get your fur coat?" "No." "You didn't give it away for free, did you?" "We had a lovely dinner." "There'll be more." "Don't count on it." "I expect he's gonna call." "Blaze Starr!" "Would a newly registered virgin Democrat... like to see how the wheels of government... are kept finely tuned?" "She would." "I will see you in my office." "Good-bye, Joe me got to go" "Me oh, my oh" "Me got to go pole the pirogue" "Down the bayou" "My Yvonne the sweetest one" "Me oh, my oh" "There goes Earl!" "Son of a gun we'll have big fun" "On the bayou" "Mr. Earl, we got the reporters with us now." "Want me to lose 'em?" "No, just wring it out." "Scare 'em a little." "Jambalaya and a crawfish pie" "And a filé gumbo" "'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my mes cheres amis, oh" "Pick guitar fill fruitjar" "And be gay, oh" "Son of a gun we'll have big fun" "On the bayou" "How are you, boys?" "Ain't seen you in weeks." "Well, I don't trust those stores... in New Orleans and Baton Rouge." "Bobby, getJ.O. And Rathburn there a couple of watermelons." "How are you, Elmore?" " Mister Earl." " Nice to see you again." "Trash seems to be blowing in behind me." "Are you boys the local press?" "I'm with the New Orleans Times-Picayune." "Oh, well." "Are you backing a bill... that would guarantee... voting rights for illiterate colored people?" "These are a fine pair of boots, the finest I've seen in a decade." "I could use a pair like this." "I bet I'll wear these for 20 years." "Bobby, pay the man." "Yes, Governor." "Vote for Earl." "I'll take all of those chairs." "Reverend Marquez, we were just on our way." " I've got a fine speech prepared." " A speech?" "Yeah." "As you all know," "I'm 100% for homestead exemptions, and I'm 100%... for farm to market roads." "I believe in building bridges over all rivers, and hot lunches..." " And hot air!" " What?" "I said, "hot lunches and hot air,"" "Governor." "My son needs a lesson in manners, Governor, but I am in accordance with the essence of his remarks." "We don't need no more speeches." " We needjobs." " We got some fine highway jobs." "Just call La Grange." "Highway jobs?" "You're talkin' about pickin' up trash." "This man's a doctor, and these women are all qualified nurses." "We done picking'up trash." "Mister Governor, we voted for you, and we voted for your brother, but that don't mean you got our vote forever." "Well, trust in God." "He'll work out everything." "We talked to God." "He told us to speak to the governor." "What are you laughing at, Picayune?" "We're just curious to know... how you'll desegregate the hospital system, and at the same time keep all your white voters happy." "We'rejust curious." "Bobby, load up the car." "I got to do a little percolating'." "Pretty good load this time." "Yeah, it's pretty good." "Have a pair of boots." " They'll last you 20 years." " Thank you." " Vote for Earl." " I always do." "Now that's a pretty picture." "Looks like you got a problem in there." "Yeah." "I've got to percolate." "Well, I got a problem out here." "What's botherin' you?" "There's a lot of men who'd like to spend an afternoon with me, but apparently you ain't one of them." "I do not like to be left in the car... like soiled merchandise." "And I don't think a proper introduction... is askin' too much." "A man in public office has to be discreet... in his indiscretions." "Well, I am not an indiscretion." "Now calm down." "He can't hurt ya." "He can't hurt ya." " I like cats." " Good." "Hey, son, wrap the cat up." "Send it to the Show-Bar in New Orleans." "And vote for Earl?" "Yeah." "Vote for Earl." "Bobby!" "Bobby!" "Yes, Governor?" "We're buyin' a damn cat." "Call the hospital up at Atchafalaya." "Tell them the fine governor of the great state of Louisiana... is gonna come callin' in 20 minutes." "Well, how y'all?" "TheJunior League... of the fine city of Magnolia... wants to present this ham... to the worthy people of this fine institution." "There you are." "Bobby!" "Thank you." " Good day, Governor." " It is a good day." "Let me introduce... a show business genius, who's volunteered her time... to drop in on the sickly, hoping to bring a little light into their day." "Without further ado, I would like to introduce..." "Miss Blaze Starr." "Hello, everybody." "Nice hospital." "Is there some reason why you dropped in on us?" "Well, you're just doin' a fine job here." "Thank you, sir." "We're glad you're here." "Vote for Earl." "Glad to see you." "Well, hi, y'all!" "Governor Earl Long." "How you doin'?" "I hope you feel better, so you can vote for Earl." "I got a little treat for you." "Cheer 'em up." "Hi, fellas." "How are you?" "What's in there?" "Niggers." "Let's have a look." "Wish we knew you were visiting', Governor, so we could have prepared." "This is a shameful, unmitigated outrage!" "We're a bit overcrowded." " That ain't what I'm talkin' about." " What, then?" "You mean to say... that you got these fine white doctors, nurses and orderlies," " and they waitin' on a bunch of niggers?" " Yes, sir." "You have white folks emptying colored bedpans?" " Yes, sir." " What are you gonna do about this?" " What am I supposed..." " You tell me." "Are you ordering me to hire a bunch..." " of colored doctors and colored nurses?" " Picky Picayune." "What do you think this fine man of medicine, whose contract is about to expire, as is the contract of many across the state, what do you think he's gonna do about this problem?" "Well, what are you gonna do?" "My God, what are you gonna do?" "I don't suppose somebody has a list... of qualified medical personnel who, as fate has it, may be colored and unemployed." " Here are 300 resumes." " Now, this man... is a courageous, innovative, daring social reformer." "I tell you," "I'm a coward next to him, and you can quote me on that." "You know, Earl, in a certain way, we're both kind of in show business." "You are catching' on to the wheels of government real quick." "Say, hey good lookin'" "What you got cookin'" "How's about cookin' somethin'up with me" "Hey, sweet baby" "Don't you think maybe" "We could find us" "A brand-new recipe" "I got a hot rod Ford" "And a two-dollar bill" "And I know a spot right over the hill" "There's soda pop and the dancin's free" "So if you want to have fun come along with me" "Say, hey good lookin'" "What do you think?" "Are we visiting' some poor folk?" "This is my home." "I call it "the pea patch."" "What do you think?" "It's nice." "That's a picture of my main hog." "Won me 5 blue ribbons before I had him cut and frozen." "Been eating' him ever since." "That's a Brahman bull there." "Took first place at our state fair." "I got some problem with the tomatoes." "Sunburn." "Oh, my God." "I need to reinforce... my ticker a little bit." " I didn't mean to give you a heart attack." " I'll be fine." "There's a lot of snap left in these garters!" "Now you just get right in there." "Makin' love to an older man... is like partaking of a fine wine." "I realize that you never had a chance... to make love to a man of my power, my clout, my leverage..." "The most powerful man in the South." "But, yes sirree," "I am gonna take you... to the land of milk and honey." "You've never had a lover like old Earl." "Do you like to F-U-C-K with your boots on?" "Yeah." "I get better traction that way." "But if it is unpleasing to you aesthetically," "I can take 'em off." "Well, if you get better traction, then keep 'em on." "A man's got to get purchase, you know." "Oh, yeah!" "It's okay to go slow." "Ahem." "What's wrong?" "Come on there, big feller." "Nothin' to worry about." "Sometimes, it's a slow starter, just like a Ford." "But I'll tell you, when that rascal starts hitting' on all eight, you can't stop the son of a bitch!" "Come on, now!" "You're on the state payroll." "Wake up!" "Everything's gonna be all right." "No, it's not all right." "I'd fire the damn freeloader if I could." "Oh, for goodness sake." "I apologize." "I apologize for me, and I apologize for my family name." "You don't have to apologize." "You ain't done nothin' wrong." "Don't go anywhere." "I'll be right back." "Excuse me." "I apologize for the great state of Louisiana." "Oh, when the Saints" "Go marching' in" "Oh, when the Saints go marchin' in" "Lord, I want to be in that number..." "Excuse me." "Would you mind singing something... without the Lord in it?" "Just 'cause of the peculiar circumstances involved." "Oh, of course." "That was very thoughtless of me." "Good-bye, Joe" "Me got to go" "Me oh, my oh" "Me got to go" "Pole the pirogue" "Down the bayou" "My Yvonne, the sweetest one" "Me oh, my oh" "Son of a gun" "We'll have big fun" "On the bayou" "Good-bye, Joe me got to go" "Me oh, my oh" "Me got to go pole the pirogue" "Down the bayou" "My Yvonne the sweetest one" "Are you home yet, honey?" "Not yet, Miss Starr." "Jambalaya and a crawfish pie" "And a filé gumbo" "'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my mes cheres amis, oh" "You ain't gonna have no heart attack, are you?" "We'll have big fun on the bayou" "Mmm-hmmm!" "Kin-folk come to see Yvonne by the dozen" "Dress in style and go hog wild me oh, my oh" "Son of a gun we'll have big fun" "On the bayou" "I didn't hurt you, did I?" "Just a Sunday afternoon drive for old Earl." "Where the hell is Earl?" "We got to talk sense into him... before he flushes... the entire Democratic Party down the crapper." "I believe all the fried food's clogged Uncle Earl's brain." "Why, bullshit!" "He ain't crazy." "All you got to do is talk to him." " Goddamn it, Earl." "You got troubles." " Name one." "People say you been keepin' company with a stripper, name of Blaze Starr." " It's a damn lie." " lfhe says it's a lie, then it is a lie." "Tuck, it's a damn lie." "Now that is the finest bunch of yes-men ever assembled." "You ain't mouthing'your way out of this one, Earl." "The I.R.S. is about to crack down on you real hard." "Tax evasion." "Might get ugly." "Hogwash!" "Voters cotton to people with tax problems." "When I get audited, I pick up 10,000 votes." "They started in on me in 1938." "Tried to get me in 1939, and come up with nothin'." "1940, 1941!" "Hello, Governor." "1942, 1943, the same thing." "Pick up a signed print on Tuesday." "They really thought they had me in 1951." "I am the most investigated man... in Louisiana history, and proud of it." "Quit picking' your nose." "Spit it out." "If you back this nigger rights bill, your career is over." "Earl, that bill has suicide written all over it." "Governor, listen now." "We have to vote on that, and we'll take the heat." "You can rant and rave about what a bunch of racists we are." "You can claim all the moral high ground." "You can stir all the poor voters around... like a filé gumbo, and we'll be the bad boys." "Fact is, you ain't even supposed to show up." "Don't you tell me the rules." "It's really quite simple, but the solution requires... a very tall order from you." "Like what?" "You have to keep your mouth shut... for one day in the legislature." "We both get what we want, and that bill dies a quiet little death." "In exchange for what?" "We pull all the support we can... away from Jimmie Davis and Dellesseps Morrison, and we give it back to you." "Earl," "I think I speak for every S.O.B. in this room... when I say that you're our favorite governor." "And I'd sure like to stay in business with you." "I sure would hate to miss out... on being governor, even for a day." "How long has it been... since you carried a parish... south of Baton Rouge, Earl?" "It's been a long time, hasn't it?" "My colleagues could give you some help down there." "There is help... waitin'for you in East Baton Rouge Parish," "Plaquemines Parish," "Terrebonne," "Jefferson, Iberia," "Saint Martin," "Ascension," "Assumption," "SaintJohn the Baptist." "Enough." "Johnnie Mae, not now." "Yes, Governor." "This way." "Shut the door." "Blaze Starr." "You better get used to her." "She is a fact of life." "Taxes?" "You can set the dogs on me." "They might bite me, buy they ain't gonna eat me." "Damn voting' rights bill." "You want me to shut up and stay home?" "Mm-hmm." "All right, I'll shut up and stay home." "Honey, you ain't ever seen anything like this before." "Kitty, kitty." "Voila." "I tied some meat to the bow." " Pretty good, huh?" " Yeah, it's fine." "I put a piece of steak on the back of the rose... and attached it to the ribbon, and he ate it." "It's the Picayune." "Cover me up." "I'll be right there!" "Open the door." "I know he's in there." "Hi, Miss Starr." "I'm looking for Earl Long." "Nobody here but me and my kitty." "I'd know Earl's voice anywhere." "That ain't the governor." "That's a panther." "If that's all, let me see him." "He don't like reporters." "Oh, Miss Starr, everybody likes me." "Well, if you insist." "I'm sorry!" "My mistake!" "Good panther." "Now get to bed." "Good kitty." "I'll see you later." "Take a nap." "You've been in there long enough." "If you don't get out, I'll crawl in with you." "Come on." "Come on out." "I hate that son of a bitch!" "I'll kill him, kill all of'em!" "String 'em up by their nuts!" "Goddamn papers!" "Ain't got no right... stickin' cameras up people's pants!" "Give me one of my pills, will ya?" "Don't get all worked up." "If bullshit was music, the Times-Picayune would be the philharmonic." "You want to talk about it?" "Talk about what?" "Well, something is definitely wrong." "Nothin' is wrong." "I know I've become a problem for you." "Don't go pushing' me about my problems, child." "A woman has got to push." "No offense." "I'm all right." "Pushin' I respect, but a man don't share his problems with a woman no how." "I guess I just overestimated... the fine governor... of the great state of Louisiana." "I thought that going to bed... could mean a little more... than thrashing around all night in wild ecstasy." "I thought it could mean... cuddling and toasty warmth, sharing one's innermost needs and fears." "That's what getting' naked truly means to me." "That's what sex truly is." "I'm sorry." "It is too bad." "I guess you don't ever want to get totally naked with me." "Thejoint session of this esteemed body... faces an historic vote in which we can... sustain our biblical mandate to keep... the white race separate and pure as God intended." "And to purge our voting registry of those unclean..." " Governor." " Governor!" "... And these nigger-lovin'persons... have imposed upon the great state of Louisiana." "Earl, you shouldn't be here." " We had a deal." " I lied." "Braden, give me that." "Mr. Speaker, I'd like permission to speak." "Willie Rainach has the floor." "I'm requesting the floor for myself!" "Mr. Governor, with all due respect, there is no law that allows the governor... to speak on the floor without an invitation." "Write a new law!" "Pass the son of a bitch with a voice vote." "I ask the fine governor to leave the premises." "My brother built these premises." "We ain't here to talk about your brother!" "We're here to talk about you!" "And to talk about niggers voting!" " You put a literacy test in the registration." " I've the floor!" "Take away a poor man's vote, he ain't got nothin'." "The Bible says, "The fear of the Lord... is the beginning of wisdom." Psalms 111." ""In righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbor."" "Leviticus 19." ""Thy nakedness shall be uncovered." "Thy sins seen."" ""He that follows me shall not walk in darkness."" "Jesus Christ, book of Luke." " Governor, please." " All right!" "Take the floor!" "Willie Rainach!" "He got a cottage up on a lake." "Someday he's gonna go up there." "He's gonna get on the porch, hunker down, take off his shoes, wash his feet, look at the moon, and see if he can get close to God." "I'll tell ya, if Willie Rainach ever gets close to God, then he's gonna say that niggers is human beings!" "Are they human beings or votes, Governor?" " I demand the floor!" " Governor, please get off the floor." "I move the question." "Without objection, so ordered." "Mr. Secretary, call the roll." "I object!" "In the Bible it says that before the end of time, billy goats, tigers, rabbits, house cats, they all go to sleep together in the same bed." "You can't stop the future." "It's comin'." "Buford, are you for me or again' me?" "What is that?" "Television?" "How do I look?" "I had an uncle." "He got drunk." "He went to the colored section down in Winnfield." "He pulled this nigger out of bed... and crawled in with the woman." "The nigger went out, got a rifle, came back." "He killed my uncle." "I'm tellin' you, we gotta quit... sleeping with 'em at night and kicking 'em in the day." "I would like to make a formal apology to the gallery, and Louisiana for the behavior of our governor." "Willie Rainach, you are a chickenshit, yellow-bellied cocksucker." "Wait a minute." "What I called that man, was a chickenshitted, yellow-bellied sapsucker." "I didn't call him no "cocksucker."" "Civil War's over!" "Since the esteemed governor will not leave, we will continue with the floor vote." " Lancaster?" " Nay." "Hell, it was over 100 years ago!" " Munson?" " Nay." "The future's comin' for all of us." "Everything's gonna be all right." "You still got me." "Hmm." "Want me to sing to you?" ""Mockingbird Hill"]" "We got it!" "Let's go!" "Goddamn it!" "Who is this?" "Sons of bitches!" " Step on it." " Get the hell out of here." "Go on out there and catch those bastards." " Give me that." " Where's Bobby?" "Get out of here!" "Get out of my car!" "What are you?" "A bunch of communists?" "Cheeseborough." "Mr. Governor, it's my opinion... that you're very sick and need professional care." "I gave you that job." "What'd you stick me with?" "A lot of people think this is for your own good." "Mandeville State Hospital." "There she is, fellas." "Miss Starr, would you look at this camera, please?" "We're from the Times-Picayune." "How long you been here?" "Just one quick picture, Miss Starr." "Where are they keeping' him?" "Mandeville, about an hour from here." "Gentlemen of the press." "Governor Long is suffering... from bronchiectasis, arteriosclerosis, oscillatory blood pressure, an occluded ventricle, and general exhaustion." "His condition is guarded." "He remains in intensive care." "Who's there?" "Miss Blaze." "Earl, you don't look so good." "They putting' all this poison in my system." "It's foreign, evil stuff." "I brought you something." "Oh, yeah." "I had some trouble getting in here." "People are turning against me." "Maybe, but you're still governor." "No, I'm not." "They locked me up in here." "No, it's in the papers even." "You're governor until they make a law that says... you can't be in the nut house and be governor." "I'm still governor?" "I swear." "Mighty and powerful as ever." "Who would do this to me?" "Some people say it's your enemies." "Some are saying it's your family." "Family, enemies, it's too confusing." "Still governor, huh?" "There's some people I want you to get in my office." "Director of the hospital, what's his name?" " Cheeseborough?" " Yeah, him." "Some of those other medical types." " Doc Ferriday?" " Yeah." "You want me to get the Picayune?" "Oh, yeah!" "Oh, yeah." "This is old Earl." "Who am I talking to?" "Hello, Governor." "This is Dr. Cheeseborough." "I got my staff here as you requested." "We're concerned about you." "I'm sure you are." "I understand... that you got the whole hierarchy of... the state health care system in my office." "We're here." "We understand you want to make a statement." "Yeah, well, since you're gathered in my office," "I want to make a statement." "Hello?" "What is it, Governor?" "You're fired." "You heard me." "I can hire you and fire you." "Check the constitution." "But..." "Clean out your desk." "Is Doc Ferriday there?" " I'm here, Earl." " Good." "I suppose the newspapers are there." "Picky, Picayune?" "I'm here, Mr. Governor." "That's good." "I'm gonna need a witness." "I do hereby, formally appoint... as the new director of the Louisiana Hospital... a mighty fine gentleman, a wonderful humanitarian, and a close personal friend of mine," "Doc Ferriday." "I humbly accept." "As my first duty, I order... the release from Mandeville State Hospital of Earl K. Long, the fine governor of the great state of Louisiana." "Damn well said, Doctor." "All right." "I want to thank you all for coming here, and I want to use this occasion... to officially open my campaign... for governor of Louisiana." " Earl?" " Lieutenant governor, whatever." "Tell us how..." "I feel like I've been beaten on like a drum." "My head is bloody, but unbowed!" " Governor?" " Governor?" "Move on back." "Let the governor through." "The other night, dear" "As I lay sleepin'" "I dreamed I held you" "In my arms" "But when I woke, dear" "I was mistaken" "So I hung my head" "And cried" " Well, how are you?" " How are you?" "How are you here?" "You make me happy" "When skies are gray" "You'll never know, dear" "How much I love you" "Please don't take my sunshine away" "I'll always love you" "And make you happy" " Hello, folks." " lf you will only say the same" "But if you leave me" "To love another" "You'll regret it all" "Some day" "You are my sunshine" "My only sunshine you make me happy..." "I'm a big fan of Miss Starr." "Lord knows I'd love to be in your shoes." "She's a fine woman, but she's hurting you." "Oh, rubbish." "The only thing that's hurting me is... my progressive ideas." "Yeah, well, Blaze Starr's... the most progressive idea you got, Governor." "Your home parish is runnin' against you." "Look." "I came back from Washington... to campaign forJimmie Davis... because this wreck of a man," "this public embarrassment here, this proven nigger lover, this shameless chaser of young women, this time-honored crook, this dangerous thinker, when he's able to think at all, with tendencies toward socialism, this outrageous affront to the people of Louisiana," "the last gasp of Longism... must be defeated!" "Vote forJimmie Davis!" "Thank you, friends." "You all know me." "I'm Chester Thibodeaux, runnin'for governor on the ticket with your own..." " Earl K. Long!" " Hello!" "There are a few remarks that I'd like to make... about the hope, aspirations, and ambitions..." "Thank you, I know that was gonna be a fine speech, because I heard it before." "He's gonna be a fine governor!" "Thank you very much." "I come back to my home parish here... so you can judge for yourself." "Do I look crazy?" " Earl, Earl?" " No!" "Hey, Earl, what about that striptease dancer?" "Now that's a damn lie!" "An old man like me... wouldn't know what to do with a striptease artiste, even if I could catch her." "I've been in a nut house, but I got out." "I got the papers to prove it, unlike my opponents here." "If I had been crazy..." "Must be quite a boost to your career having your... shabby-ass love affair with a man of Earl's distinction." " Are you questioning my intentions?" " Hell, I damn sure am." "For your information, me and Earl are in love." "You're in love?" "The whole world's in love:" "chickens, cows, goats, turkeys, monkeys; everything." "I don't need speeches, especially from... a man whose main talent lies in..." ""Yes, Mr. Earl, it's a fine, good, damn idea."" "Why don't you shut the hell up?" "I ain't no "yes" man." "In private, I tell him the truth." "Hell, I'm as great a believer in Earl K. Long... as anybody that ever damn lived." "I love the man, too." "It's a week before the election." "We can't do nothin'about the niggers or damn nut house, but we can do something about you." "You could leave." "I'm stayin' with Earl." "Well, if you stay, you'll be witnessing the final days of a great man." "Earl?" "Yeah?" "We gotta talk." "Fine looking bunch of hogs, ain't it?" "It's all over, Earl." "What do you mean, "over"?" "Campaign's just gettin' into high gear." "That is not what I am talking about!" "I'm talking about us, Earl." "We can't see each other no more." "You've got to move back in the governor's mansion." "You've got to be buddies with your cronies, because they love you." "And they're right." "You've got problems." "Problems?" "I thrive on 'em!" "I beg for 'em." "I wallow in 'em like a pig in slop." "Your political instincts... are clouded by the aroma of my perfume." "Blaze?" "Quit that." "Come here and cloud my instincts some more." "Quit occupying' high moral ground." "It's unbecoming." "If you win, we can be together again." "Then it won't matter what people think." "What do you mean, if I win?" "I meant to say, when you win." "Would you still love me if I wasn't governor?" "Would you, if I had little tits and worked in a fish house?" " It ain't the same!" " Is so!" "What are you scared of?" "Losing you!" "I'm scared oflosing the election." "If I lose this election, I'll be one more... two-bit tinhorn, loudmouth old man... who couldn't get reelected." "You'd be the ex-governor." "That's something." "I don't want to be ex-governor!" "I ain't ex-governor material." "Whenever I'm right about us, you start shouting." "I'm right about us, aren't I?" "That old stuffed bobcat is magic." "It'll take care of you... when we ain't together." "Y'all doin' all right?" "It's Belle!" "Belle's home!" "Belle's home." "She's here!" "Belle's here." "Belle, you're home." "Hi!" "Help me get my things out." "I got something for everybody." "You look different, but good." "I've got to talk to you." " I've bungled everything." " Oh, no." "Nobody bungles everything." "This is for you." "What?" "I left my boyfriend." "This is the big week." "I was gettin' in the way." "Did you leave him for good, or for temporary?" "That's what I came home to talk to you about." "Well, talk." "You see, I'm not exactly a singer... in the normal use of that term." "My boyfriend... is an important person in the public eye." "And... we make an unusual couple." "I don't know how to explain this, but... the world is more complicated than in Twelvepole Creek." "I know that, Belle." "I wanna show you something." "I get 'em from the bus driver." "He sees 'em up in Huntington." "Why didn't you ever say anything?" "Because I didn't want to embarrass you." "Are you disappointed with me?" "I would have preferred a different profession." "I would have, but if this is wherein your talent lies... then the Christian thing to do... is make the most of it." "Come over here and give me a hug, right now." "Oh, Belle!" "Can I ask you something personal?" "Mm-hmm." "Is Earl Long crazy?" "He ain't well, but he ain't crazy." "I swear it on a stack of Bibles." "I'll think about this tonight... and maybe talk it over with the Lord." "While you're praying, you might throw in a request... for a heavy turnout in the central parishes of Louisiana." "We're getting an unusually heavy turnout... in the central parishes." "Yeah, we are, Earl." "But we're having a little trouble downstate, like the voting machine's runnin' against us." "Has Blaze called yet?" "No, she ain't called yet." "We move to the gubernatorial primaries." " Morrison has 1 st place." " Here comes Louisiana." "2nd place going toJimmie Davis." "3rd place to Willie Rainach." "4th to big Bill Dodd." "Last to the ticket of Earl Long and Chester Thibodeaux." " 5th place." " The stunning defeat spells the probable end... of the Long dynasty which began a generation ago." "Ben, turn it off." "J.W., I can't get him out of the damn closet." " Where's he at?" " In there." " How ya doin', Chester?" " Hello." "How are you?" "Come on in here." "Good to see you." "Earl?" "Earl, come on out of the closet." "She ain't coming back." "Not to a has-been." "Come out." "You're messing up your own damn party." "It ain't my party!" "I bet that damn woman... snuck back to Bourbon Street with some other guy." "You know that ain't right." "Simmer down and come on out." "Simmer down, hell!" "I'm gettin' out of here." "Earl?" "Earl, come on back here!" "Where in the hell is he going?" " Let's go get my car." " All right." " Where's Blaze?" " She ain't here, Mr. Governor." " She went to see her mama." "She ain't back." " Bullshit." " I ain't bullshittin'." " You fooling with her?" " I ain't done nothin'." " You gettin' a little, huh?" " Blaze?" " I voted for ya twice." "Blaze?" "Don't you do something crazy at the show-bar." "Blaze?" "Blaze, where are you?" "You out here?" "Huh?" "Where are you?" "Goddamn TV!" "Ahh. "As a dog..." ""returneth to his vomit," ""so a fool... returneth to his folly."" "The Lord gave." "The Lord taketh away!" "Blessed be the name of..." "You goddamn whore." "You... redheaded... harlot!" "She ran out on me!" "You know why?" "Because..." "I run 5th place... last time on the track." "You after my money?" "Well, surprise." "I don't have any!" "People think I'm lining my pockets." "The fact is, money bores me!" "What the hell do I need with a woman like that?" "You are... just the prettiest thing that I ever saw." "I heard you were lookin' for me." "I told you she'd come back." "Maybe things would've been a little different... if I hadn't been around." "Nah, I lost 'cause... my political views is too futuristic." "That and TV." "My God, I hate TV." "I like TV." "Looks like we're missing quite a party." "We're not missing anything." "Oh, my God." "It's big!" "Marry me." "Earl, there's something you oughta know about me, something I gotta confess." " What's that?" " I can't cook." "We'll work around it." "Maybe it's time for old Earl to become domesticated." "Might be a humbling experience." ""Father Knows Best"]" "Sure, princess." " Betty?" " Does this really look all right on me?" "I'm just mad about yellow." "How you doin', baby?" "You know what I would like in my retirement?" " What's that, honey?" " A TV tray." "I seen 'em advertised." "You can put food right on those damn things." "We'll see if we can get us some." " Looks good." " Mm-hmm." "I'm going back to work soon." "I'm gonna make some money." "You want to go for a Sunday drive?" "Hmm?" "No, I think I'll... just get some sleep." "Alexandria newspaper called." "They're sending out some guys to do an interview." "That's wonderful!" "What are they gonna write about?" "I'm gonna suggest it be a story about... a thoroughbred... turned out to stud pasture in his golden years." "Well, how are you?" "Earl Kemp Long, ex-governor of Louisiana." "People call me "Governor" if so inclined." " My pleasure, sir." " Good morning." "Excuse me, but is Miss Starr ready?" "Miss Starr... is expecting you." "Honey, the people are here." "I got some other fish to fry." " Good morning, gentlemen." " 'Morning, Miss Starr." " No pictures." " No pictures?" "Why not?" "I won't have a story without pictures." "Put it away." "I thought we could... talk to you about your future." "I don't want to talk about my future." "I don't want to talk about my past or my present." "Miss Starr?" "Tell me when's the next election in Louisiana." "There's always an election in Louisiana." "There's a national congressional primary... coming up." "National politics, huh?" "You wouldn't be thinking about Uncle Earl, would you?" "And what if I was?" "Well, no disrespect intended, ma'am, but he's not exactly dealing off the top of the deck." "Earl K. Long is the sanest man I've ever known." "Interview's over, boys." "But, Miss Starr?" "Hello?" "How ya doin', Blaze?" "J.W., I've got some great news for you." "Earl wants to make a comeback." "Earl wants to make a comeback, huh?" "Okay, ah, what's he gonna run for?" "Earl is ready for national politics." "If Kennedy wins, he's gonna need help." "Are you with us?" "I've got to tell you, right now, the answer's "no."" "I'll take that as a "yes."" "I look forward to seeing you fellas." "Oh, Earl!" "Earl?" "Guess what." "Your cronies called... and they desperately want you back... to run for national office." "They're beggin' for you." "They're crazy." "I'm finished down there." "That self pity stuff don't look good on you." " You're pullin' my leg." " I am not." "I just got off the phone with them." "La Grange, Thibodeaux, Doc Ferriday; every one of them." "They want you back." "They called from Baton Rouge." "It sounded urgent, but I told 'em you were busy." "I took a message." "They're waitin'... by their phone this minute for you to call them back." "And they're beggin' for me?" "They are beggin' for you... on their hands and knees." "Well, goddamn!" "It's about time." "Those bums in Washington are worse... than the hoodlums we got down here." "Federal highways full of potholes." "Hot lunch programs, they're gettin' lukewarm." " In the Bible, Proverbs, 19..." " Governor, what about that stripteaser?" "That is a goddamn lie." "Oh, when the Saints go marching in" "Now when the Saints go marching in" "You know that I want to be in that number" "When the Saints go marching in" "Now when the sun" "Refused to shine" "Don't forget." "Vote for Earl K. Long." "Vote for Earl K. Long for congress." "When the sun refused to shine" "Well, lookee, lookee, lookee." "What have we got here?" "Arvin Deeter." "Man drives to dinner in a Rolls Royce." "He comes to work in a Chevrolet." "Don't come too close, boy." "I bite." "Be interesting' to see how the parish warms to a... socialistic, nigger-lovin', woman chasing', lunatic from the mental hospital." "Oh, yeah!" "Oh, yeah?" "Some people say it would be an improvement." "I love that man." "Let's hear it for ol' Deeter!" "Get over here!" "It ain't his fault he's got a face like a catfish, talks out of both sides of his mouth, whistles, lies, smokes cigarettes at the same time." "People in this parish are entitled to somethin' better." "Come on, baby!" "This fallen man... lies at the feet of a woman... with colored hair, sinful clothes, painted eyes, exotic, erotic, wanton, lewd and hell-bound!" "Earl!" "Earl!" "Keep it as a souvenir." "Vote for Earl." "Look at ol' high hat, sweet-smellin', silk-stockin' Deeter." "Puts that sticky stuff under his arms." "Charlie, if you get Deeter and his boys to give up... bourbon, 6 beers, and cigarettes every 4 days," " they would all become saints!" " Yeah, yeah!" "There'd be a chicken in every pot." "Every man would be a king." "That's the price of civilization." "Before I would sell out... the poor colored people, the poor white people, have people hiding 'em, fighting 'em, and burning up their homes," "I would sacrifice being president of the U.S., vice president, U.S. Senator!" "The three best friends... that the poor people ever had:" "Jesus Christ, Sears and roebuck, and Earl K. Long!" "The ongoing story of the Long family dynasty... in Louisiana continues to add more bizarre chapters... as former governor Earl K. Long... attempts a pathetic bid for election to national office, rocked by a scandalous affair... with a famous exotic dancer." "Leave her alone!" "What's the matter?" "You want to look?" "All right." "Take a look." "Huh?" "Take a real look!" "If I was crazy then," "I am crazy now!" "And I'm gonna be crazy for the rest of my life." "They say I fell in love... with a striptease dancer." "Well, they're right!" " I'm guilty." " Thank you, sweetie." "They say I raised taxes." "They're right." "I am guilty." "They say I built bridges, and hospitals, and roads." "They're right!" "I'm guilty!" "They say Louisiana's got the best old-age pension... in the United States of America." "They're right." "I'm guilty." "They say I fought the poll tax and the reading lists... so that everybody in the country could vote." "Right!" "Guilty, guilty, and guilty!" ""Dear Mama," ""we're heading up to Winnfield for election day." ""Don't be disappointed if Earl don't win." ""He's happy, or as close to happy as he gets." ""Most of the important people in Louisiana..." ""don't speak to him anymore." ""And the press, well, theyjust laugh." ""I'm gonna be voting'for congress." ""You might pray for me." "It's my first time and I'm pretty nervous. "" "Blaze Starr, how would you like to ride to headquarters?" "Governor, I think it's a fine day for a walk." "Well, that's exactly what I said." "It is... a fine day for a walk." "Everything okay?" "The election's in the bag." "The papers say you're in trouble, as usual." "The day before an election, can't find anybody... who says they're gonna vote for me." "After, can't find anybody who says they did vote for me." "It's always been the same." "How are things at the club?" "Fine, I guess." "There's a lot of pressure for me and the girls to... drop our G-strings." "They say it's the wave of the future." "Well, civilization is at the crossroads... in every department." "Good lookin' melons here." "Find us a good one." "I'm gonna thump a few and see if they talk back." " How's Earl doing?" " The newspapers hate him." "Deeter's come up with some evidence about tax problems." "The Democratic machine ain't gave him a damn dime, and he's 20 points behind in the polls." "Things are lookin' pretty good." "Hello?" "Hello?" " Oh, my God!" " What is it, Governor?" "It's his heart!" "Earl?" "Earl?" "Give him air." "Are you all right?" "Goddamn it." "Get away from me." " I just had something bad for breakfast." " It's his heart." " You want your pills?" " Yeah." "Get him to the hospital." "If you take me, I'll fire everybody." "Somebody get an ambulance!" "Yeah, broadcast that I ain't fit for office." "Listen!" "You need to go to the hospital, damn it!" "Honey, you tell 'em where I gotta go." "He's gotta go right now." " You don't want the hospital?" " No." "Take him to the hotel." " If he wins, he'll fire you." " For God's sake, he's sick." "Everybody just leave me alone." "Give me some air." "I'm all right." "You're getting your color back." "I'm all right." "That was a fine melon." "It was a damn fine melon." " You all right." " I'm all right." "Don't get hit by a car." "Stop the traffic." "How are you?" "Good to see you." "Sam, good to see you." " Hello, Governor." " How are you?" "Thanks for coming." "Vote for Earl." "Oh, yeah." "Evening." "How are you?" "Nice to see you again." " Evening." " Evening." " The heat's really fierce, isn't it?" " It is." "You're in the clear, Earl." "You're gonna be okay." "Here." "Just sit down, right here." " What time is it?" " It's 5:00, Earl." "The polls are still open." "Prop me up, boys." "Stick me in the window." "Let 'em see I'm okay." "We get a good turnout in Goldonna?" "We're checking on it for you, Earl." " Get some rest, will ya?" " I don't want rest." "Give me that." "Earl, listen to somebody else for a change." " Here, Mister Earl." " Here you go." "Right here." "Take it easy." "We gonna make it all right." "That's it." "You all right?" "We'll put you in the window." "Wait a minute." "East of the river there's a guy..." "What's his name?" " Joe LeeJackson." " Yeah." " The guy with the trucks, right?" " Yeah." "He owes Earl." "Get him to send trucks to pick up voters." "Sid." "Harold." "Bob." "Go on and do that." "Give me my pills." "It's okay, Bobby." "Thank you." "Open 'em up, boys." "I'm ready." "Things look okay to you?" "Kind of hard to tell with Earl." "Oh, yeah!" "Joe Lee." "Here." "Tell him Uncle Earl wants him to get here." "Joe LeeJackson," "I'm calling for Uncle Earl." "I need your truck." "See you all later." " There." "It's 8:00." " The polls are closed." "The polls are closed now, Earl." "You want me to shut the blinds, Mister Earl?" "Yeah." "I bet ol' Deeter's scared." "Split-tongued heathen!" "Damn it!" "Can we get you to a hospital?" "Get me to a couch." "Oh!" "You're out of your cotton-picking mind." "You know that, don't you?" "Hmm?" "Easy, now." "Right here." "There we go." "That's it." "Keep his head up." "That's good." "Almost time for the 1 st returns." "But... we'll go have a look for you, and see how things is developing." "Okay?" "Okay." "Earl, I want you to take care of yourself." "We'll find out what the polls say, all right?"

" Yeah, same to you." "Hey, Doc." "I love you." "I love you, too." "You gotta promise me something." "Hmm?" "We get married right after this election's over." "Trust me." "All right, Earl." "Earl, you won!" "We're back in business." "We're on our way to Washington." "Of course he won." "What'd you expect?" "We'd like to be alone for a bit, if you don't mind?" "Yes, ma'am, Miss Starr."

" I'm blind." "Stay calm." "Stay where you are, and tell me, what happened?" "I'm blind!" "I'm blind!" "It's like something's flooding my eyes." "I didn't do anything." "Right." "It's probably nerves." " Should someone call an ambulance?" " Please just take me my apartment." " Just wait a minute!" " And my wife can help me." " I can take him." "I can drive him home." " Are you sure, sir?" " Yes." "Of course." "We got to get him off the street." "Okay." "Okay, sir." "I'll take you to the other side." "It's just a blind guy." "Careful." "Take care of him." "Watch him." "He can't see." "He's blind." "He's blind." "Here you go." "Give me your hand." "Watch your head, please." "Easy." "Easy." "Okay." "So, you can hear me, right?" " Yeah." "Right." " So say something if you need it." "And we'll have you home in no time." "Okay?" "Any questions?" "Why aren't we moving?" "It's a red light." "There's a movement to it." "Like light particles." "Like light shining through a sea of white." " It feels like I'm swimming in milk." " Really?" "Well... one good thing is I've never heard blindness described as white." "It's black, right?" "It's the absence of light." " So, that's a good thing." " I guess." "Yeah, sure it is." "It means it's not real blindness." "Anyway, it's too fast." "Blindness is slow, right?" "What you have is psychosomatic." "Some kind of nervous thing." "Just a second here." "Is this where we're going?" "Okay, so..." "Why don't you just get out here." " Walk to the curb." " All right." " I got it." " Walk to your left." "Straight at." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Look!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help!" "Don't worry." "I got you." " You okay?" " Yeah." "Oh, my God!" "This your building?" "It's nice."

" What are you worried about?" " Nothing unusual." " No?" "Any other symptoms?" " No?" " Like nervous symptoms?" "No, my life is pretty regular these days." "Not a care in the world?" "Life of leisure, huh?" "Here we go." "Is anyone going to be at home, or are you going to be alone?" "Honey, I'm home." "Honey, I'm home." " Thank you for everything." " Nice place." "Did your wife design it here?" "No." "Listen." "Thank you for everything." "I'm so fine for now." "Do you want me to stay and take care of you until your wife gets home?" " No, no, no." "I'm fine." " Sure?" "It would make me feel better." "I'm fine." "Thank you." " You sure?" " I'm sure." " You want me to stay?" " No, thank you." " All right." " Thank you very much." "Thank you." "Wonderful!" "I liked it so much." "Look at this." "You couldn't have cleaned it up before you lay down?" "Are you even listening?" "I'm not your maid." "You're bleeding." "Are you okay?" "I'm blind." "Eye doctors, eye doctors..." "Do you know any?" "Let's just go to the hospital." "No way, they'll keep us waiting for hours." "We're going to a specialist." "I'd rather die than stay like this." "Shut up!" "You're confusing me." "My apologies." " Honey?" " What?" " So?" " So, what?" "Can you see anything?" "Anything at all?" " I see nothing." " Try harder." " What?" " Where are the car keys?" "Take your keys." "You can look for mine later." "Taxi!" "Are you sure you looked everywhere?" "Sure." "There's nothing wrong with my eyes." "What kind of a person steals from a blind man?" "He should go blind." "You can come with me now, sir." "The doctor will see you in a minute." " Excuse me." " Oh, God!" "But I've been waiting here for over an hour with a child." "Sorry, doctor's orders." "Yeah, but my appointment was at six." "It's now seven o'clock." " We'll get to you as soon as we can." " And it's not..." "Miss." "Miss..." "Let him go." "He's worse off than we are." "This is totally disrespectable." "Nothing." "Nothing in your lenses." "Nothing in the retina." "Somebody just turned out the lights?" "No, it's more like all the lights were turned on." "Your eyes look perfect." "You see, I told you." "Except I cannot see anything." "Yes, and if this is true then we're going to run some more tests." "Unfortunately we're not going to be able to do that today." "What do you mean, if it's true?" " You think I'm lying?" " No, not at all." "But I've to be honest." "I've never experienced anything like this." "So, is that a prescription?" "No, I'm actually writing directions for the hospital." "I know how to get to the hospital." "I don't need directions." "They're not for you." "They're for the staff." "So they know what to do with your husband when he arrives." " So that's it?" " That's it for now." "It's going to be okay." "We're going to find out what it is." "There's nothing else we can do right now." "And I'll just need a signature right there." " Okay." " I'm sorry." "Not you, him." "Me?" " Parking stamp?" " We don't have a car." "Shit." "What you doing?" "The road's closed!" "What was that?" "Fuck!" "That's stupid." "Stupid." "Alright, we're gonna do this guy." "Remember this guy, the crab?" "Alright, we're gonna test this eye first." " Do you prefer this lens or this?" " The other one." " This one?" "You sure?" " Yeah." "Yeah." "All right, put your glasses on." "This is for you." "Show your mom." "Good boy." "I'm going to ask you to take the drops for at least five days." "And maybe, should I keep wearing the glasses." "Would you like me to order you to wear them?" "Okay." "I order you to wear your sunglasses." "Unless you're bathing or sleeping." "All right, I'll give you a try tomorrow." "I just wanted to get your take on a bizarre case I saw today." "Okay." "So, it appeared to be a kind of, "amaurosis", which is a which is a kind of a..." " Sorry." "Are you done?" "Sure do you want to hear this or no?" "Except with an "amaurosis" everything goes dark... and with him everything was white." " Well, how do you know what he saw?" " Exactly, I don't know... what he saw, but I guess I have to take his word for it, don't I?" "It could be something neurological, like... something we call "agnosia"... which is an inability to recognize familiar objects." " "Agnosia?"" " That's right." "It's as if a man sees, I don't know, a fork, he looks at it he says," ""What is this thing?" "I've never seen anything like this before. "" "Is that related to "agnosticism"?" "In what way?" "You know, "Agnosia", "Agnosticism"." " Etymologically speaking?" " Yeah." "Didn't you take Latin?" "It's actually Greek, dear." "Well, I bet it has something to do with ignorance, or lack of belief." "There's a lot of judgment in that word." "Never mind." "Never mind." "You want some more wine?" " No, but are you sure you do?" " Yeah!" " I'm going to bed." " Okay." "Wait, hold on, hold on." "What was I gonna ask you?" " What was I gonna say?" "How are you?" " Something about dinner?" "No." " Diseases?" " No." "That's a nice sweater." "Thanks." "I can't help you, sweetheart." "Sorry." " Okay." "Good night." " Good night." "I'm sorry." "I'm a little distracted." "I know." "I know." "I'm sorry." "Could you set the alarm back for half an hour?" "I need to make a couple calls in the morning." " Yeah, of course." "Good night." " Good night." " Thank you for the tart." " It was Tiramisu." "Yeah, Tiramisu." "Well, well." "What's the big secret?" " What are you hiding from?" " Jerks like you." "That'll be 11 even." "Thank you." "Taxi!" "Hi." "Hotel Emiliano, please." "Do you have the time?" "Yeah, you still have 20 minutes." " Hi." " Hi." "Your guy said you might be late." "You're pretty." "Nice to meet you." "I can't take my glasses off." "Is that a problem?" " Are you serious?" " Doctor's orders." " Really?" " I can call another girl." "Fuck!" "That was wild." "I mean it." "Really weird." "I still see everything white." " Just ring the bell." " I've been ringing the bell." " Can I help you?" " This man says he's your husband." " He can't see." " I don't care what he's done!" " You can just turn around..." " Just open the fucking door!" "Officer, I don't know this man!" " Forget he's a cop!" "Let me in!" " All right." "Get out!" "Fucker!" " Thanks a lot!" " Nice and easy." "Come on, come on, let's go!" "I'll get you some help." " I can't see!" " Wait here!" "I'll get you some help!" " Just wait right here!" " You don't understand?" "I can't see!" " Shit!" " Oh, Jesus!" "I need security at 18, right away!" " Hi!" " Hi!" "What...?" " I'm gonna grab your purse." " Yeah." "It's okay." " Where's your clothes?" " Jesus Christ!" " Everything's going to be all right." " I know her." " Don't push me!" " Everything's going to be..." " Shut the hell up!" " Take your hands off me!" " Where's my dress?" " Your dress is just here." "I need to call my parents." " You're up before the alarm." " Yes." " Good morning." " I doubt it's going to be that good." "What's the matter?" "I..." "I can't see." " What?" " That patient I saw yesterday... must have infected me." "That's... that's impossible." "Let..." "let me look." "Here." "I don't..." "I don't see anything." "Nobody goes blind like that." "Well, there's at least two of us now." "Oh, no!" "No, go out!" "Oh, God, no!" "You touched!" "No, I'm..." " It's infectious!" " No, no, no!" "I'm telling you!" "It's infectious!" "He gave it to me!" "It's contagious!" "I'm not gonna get sick." "I promise." "I promise." "Jesus!" "I spent the night in bed with you!" "It's all right." "We'll take care of it." "It's all right." " I'm so sorry." "I'm so sorry." " It's all right." "It's all right." " What time is it?" " It's almost 8h30." "Okay, let's call the hospital." "With no visible signs of trauma." "No extenuating symptoms." " I'm not barricade the streets." " There you go." "Here you are." "All right, I'll see you soon." "No problem." "That's a risk I can take." "All right." " What seems to be the problem?" " It's a boy, he's blind." "Hey, sport!" "It's okay." "Everything is fine." "Don't be nervous." "Somebody, help!" "I can't see!" "Ministry of Health." "It's a little bit early." "I would suggest that you call sometime after nine." "Yes nine." "Morning, Minister." "Some strange calls this morning." "Thank you." "God!" "He was here at six I think." "Or, six thirty." "Who else was here?" "The waiting room was crowded, I remember." " Ma'am." " Excuse me." "I've all the contact numbers here." "Do you want me to..." "Ma'am." "I'm gonna have to ask you to close up shop... and come with us as quickly as possible." "May I have those files, please?" "They're going to be here any minute." "I know." "That's why I want you to relax." "I'll take care of everything we may come across." "Okay, I'll be fine." "If I need anything, I'll have them call you." "Or I'll call you myself." "They can't keep us apart for too long." "Can they?" " Are you coming?" " I'm right behind you." " Don't lock yourself out now." " Don't worry, I've got the keys." " Morning, sir." " Morning." "Please, approach the vehicle." " Do you have a cell phone, sir?" " Yes." "Put it in the bag, please." " What for?" " Thank you." "This way." " I got it, thank you." " This way." " Thank you." " Thank you." "No, no, step down, ma'am." "I'm asking you to step down!" " No, I'm gonna go." " My orders are only to take the man." "This vehicle is for infected, okay?" "Well, then you'll have to take me, because I've just gone blind." "Fine, have it your way." "Jesus!" "Attention!" "Attention!" "The Government regrets having been forced to exercise with urgency... what it considers to be it's duty to protect the population by all means." "We are in a state of crisis." "An epidemic of blindness... provisionally known as the "White Sickness" we're relying... on the public spirit and cooperation of all citizens... to stem any future contagion." "The decision to temporarily quarantine all those infected... was not taken without careful consideration." "Be assured that the isolation in which you find yourselves... represents, above any personal considerations... an act of solidarity with the rest of the Nation." "You'll never believe where they brought us." "Let me guess, this guy's voice is already driving me crazy." "You're lucky you can't see it." "It's a video?" "Well, that's scary." "Makes you question what kind of an idiot... would play a video in a quarantine for the blind." "Each ward is equipped with a phone for communication..." " Here." " ... with the outside." "The phone is for emergency purposes only." "We've got to get you out of here." "I'm gonna tell them you can see." "No." "They'll never believe it." "You'd never get near enough to tell them." "I want you to go home." "Please, go home." "I know you think you have to say that, but I'm fine!" " It's what I want." " Really?" "All right." " I want it." " All right." "Anyway, it's too late now." " We shouldn't tell that I can see." " You're right." "With that spirit of cooperation in mind... we ask everyone pay attention to the following simple instructions." " Are you with me?" " Echo!" "Each patient shall choose his own bed." " It's a corridor." " Number Two," "Each ward shall elect a captain, or "ward representative"... for communication with the outside world..." "Four?" "Three?" "Row two, Number Three." "Five." " Doctor, how many wards are there?" " Yes, sorry." "There's two other wards on this floor... and then another ward on the lower floor for people who..." " How do you know that?" "We explored a little before you came in." "We chose this ward because it's closest to the entrance where the food comes in." " Well, someone's thinking." "That's the asshole who's responsible for all this." "If I had my fucking eyes, I'd kill him." "He's responsible for stealing my car." " What?" "Are you serious?" " Damn yeah!" "If I hadn't been decent and stopped to help you..." "I'm gonna go to another room... as far away as possible from this son of a bitch." "Son of a bitch who can steal from a blind man..." " Honey, honey, they're fighting!" " They are fighting?" "Stop it now!" "Stop that!" " Stop this!" " Over here." " Stop this!" " Here." "Stop!" "Stop, you're acting like children!" "Stop it, please!" "We're obviously all alone here." "Okay?" "We're on our own!" "So, if you want to make this place a hell... you're going upon it in absolutely the right way." " He stole my car." " It doesn't matter." "What are you gonna do with a car?" "You can't drive anyway." " He stole my sight!" " Okay, stop that now." "Look, Doc, or whoever the fuck you are!" "We're all equal here, right?" "There's been no proper election." "So don't start ordering people around with that tone of voice." "I am not ordering anybody, I'm simply asking you to..." "I'm simply asking you to leave this man alone." "Okay." "Fine." "Just be aware that I don't respond well to that voice... of authority." "What I do respond to, in case you're wondering... is flattery, and people sucking up to me." "Everyone close your eyes, ladies." "I'm gonna take off my clothes now... and try out this bed here." "Number Three." "Are you okay?" "If you need anything in the night, I'm right here." "I gotta go pee." "Doorway." "So try to remember the route." "How many doors." "How many steps." "I counted them when I first got here." " And straight." " And straight." "Stop it." "Doorway." "Doorway." "Right turn." " I think." " Right turn." "Straight." "Another doorway." " Jesus!" " What happened?" "What are you wearing for shoes, bitch?" "Where's the wound?" " Here?" " Fuck!" " We need to clean it up." " Crazy bitch stuck her heel in me." "I tripped." "And watch your mouth." " I gotta go pee!" " Just hold it a little while." "Everyone, stay put." "We'll be right back." "Okay, okay." "I really gotta go pee!" "Jesus!" "A piece of skin, or something." "I found some dishtowels, but I don't know if they're clean." "Okay." "Keep pressure on it." " It's too dirty, I think." " It's really bleeding." "What are you wearing?" "Give me your shirt." "Quickly." "Thank God we have a real doctor here." "Seriously." " I was only fooling around." " Relax, relax." " Here, here." "Let me..." " Careful!" "Let me do it." "Let me do it." "Careful with that." "It's expensive." "Expensive shirt of mine." "Once... twice... three times." "All right." " That's fine." " That's good." "I'm afraid it's gonna be infected." "Doesn't surprise me." "The filth from the street on that shoe." "What time is it?" "1h30." "You can't be responsible for everyone." "You need to sleep." " Are you afraid to close your eyes?" " No." "I'm afraid to open them." "Afraid I'll go blind in my sleep." "I'm gonna take a walk." "Opening the gate." "Pull right up to the door." "Closing the gate." "Locking up." "Only the infected are permitted within these doors." "Once inside, follow the corridor until the wards." "Alright, let's go." "Four, three, two, one." "Five, four, three, two, one." "Five, four, three, two, one." "Hello?" "Hello, can anyone hear us?" "Door." "Door?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Honey, wake up." " What?" " New people." " How many?" " Not... not many." " Do you have beds available in here?" " Yeah." "We should." " How many of you are there?" " We don't know." " We don't know" " Okay." "Maybe you could count off." "One by one, and introduce yourselves." "I'm Number One." "I'm a police officer." "I'm Number Two." "I'm a taxi driver." "Number Three." "A pharmacist assistant." "Four." "I'm a hotel maid." "Five." "Financial advisor." "That's my wife!" "That's my wife!" " Honey?" " It's me." "Honey?" " Where are you?" " Here." "Where are you?" "Here." "Say something." "Here." " Keep talking." " Here." "That's great!" " Is my mom here?" " She'll be here, don't worry." "Okay?" "Get off!" "That's them." "I wanna catch them." "Quickly." " It's occupied." "Move on." " We'll be right back!" " And who was that guy talking?" " Is our ward representative, right?" "Please!" " Let's go!" " Please!" "Stop!" " Stop!" " Stop!" " Please wait!" " Excuse me!" " Wait!" " Wait!" " I'm sorry." "You gotta to get back." " Excuse me." "Listen." "We have a man here with an injured leg... and he needs serious medical attention." "He has an infection, he needs antibiotics, I'm a doctor." "I can't let you leave." "So, please, turn back." "Okay." "I'm not asking to leave." "I'm simply trying to ask for help here." "Get the fuck back!" "Another step and I'm gonna shoot." " Honey..." " This is ridiculous." " I have a sick man here." " This isn't gonna work." "I'm gonna count to three and if you don't turn back..." "I'm going to shoot you!" "Can you talk to your superior, please?" " One!" " You got to be kidding me." " Two!" " This is... this is insanity!" "Will you talk to your supervisors?" " This is not going to work!" " Three!" "I'm gonna fucking shoot you!" "Let's go!" " This is ridiculous!" " Just forget it." "They're not..." "I can't believe this is happening." "Stop." "Each ward is equipped with a phone... for communication with the outside... the phone is for emergency purposes only." "Take." "Try it." " This is great." " Is there any coffee here?" "Is there any extra food at the end there?" "I don't have." "I don't..." "The other table needs more." "I think I have one extra fruit cup." " Any want the meat pack?" " The other table can have some?" "Does anybody have a knife?" " A knife?" " Or a fork?" "I have a knife." " Do you want to borrow mine?" " I'll wait, what about you?" " We can share." " No problem." "I'm still curious about what happened to that girl, though." "There was this girl, in 1806." "Screaming." "Naked, except for these sunglasses." " Naked?" " She'd gone blind?" "Yeah." "She was the one that infected me." " Is it good your fruit?" " Yeah." "Yes, I'll leave a message." "My message is, Why is there an emergency number... if there's no one there to answer it?" "We have a situation here in the blind ward." "Apparently you missed that, because we don't have enough food." "Also, there's still my request from yesterday for a medical supply kit." "I hope you get this message before dinner." "Six more coming!" "Number Five, Security guard at a hotel." "Number Six, Engineer." "I'm a receptionist at an ophthalmologist." "I know your voice." " Oh, my God, where are you?" " Here." "Here." "I'm 7, I forgot to say 7." "Are you all right?" "I've got you." "All right?" "Door." "Left, left, make a left." "And straight." "Straight." "Keep going." " Do you need a hand?" " No." "I got it." "That's it." "First of all, welcome to the newcomers." "We're Ward One." "There's a few things I want to discuss." "We've a guide line that connects all the wards to each other." "It's an innovation made by my wife." "We can thank her for that." "There's another point." "The toilets." "They're absolutely disgusting." "I'm going to need a team to go and see what's going on in there." "I like the warm feeling on my face." "The smell too." "You used to like it..." "Remember that New Year's when we went to the Shrine?" "There were so many people waiting in line." "It was cold." "The ceremonial fire was near the line." "When we got close to it... our bodies were warmed on one side..." "It felt good!" "We didn't even know each other that well." "And so..." "I don't want to listen." "I don't want to listen." "Why?" "I can't pretend." "There's no..." "there's no soap." "I guess it's better than nothing." " You hear that?" " What?" " Any bed in here?" " There's not." "Hello." "Hello." "Would you happen to have an extra bed in your dorm?" "I have a radio." "There's not as many stations as there used to be." "But I guess, if you insist..." "I can give you an update." " At least we save on the batteries." " Please." "In the first 24 hours there were hundreds of cases... or so, the rumor says." "All the same." "No pain." "A sea of white." "The Government's response, as you know, was decisive." "The first of the make shift quarantines." "But this decommissioned sanitarium didn't make ideal public relations." "Let's organize a massive international medical conference... of ophthalmologists and neurologists." "We don't yet know if this is..." "And so for days and days... the helpless viewing public was subjected to seminars... and endless roundtables... with specialists from around the world... proclaiming their general ignorance." "...that was published in "Infectious Disease International"..." "How premature it was to talk of cures." "How more research was needed, and more funding." "A point that was at least once dramatically illustrated." "Oh, my God!" "I've gone blind!" "Oh, my God!" "Help me!" "Help me!" "Help me!" "Someone, please!" "Somebody!" " Shit!" "Shit!" "No, no, no!" " Take him out of here!" "Weeks passed, and with time, and the constant coverage... the city was bored back to work." "Oblivious to the evidence all around them... that the disease was immune to bureaucracy." " No!" "No!" " Ma'am, stop." "Stop struggle, please." "What about the roads and traffic?" "Chaos, as usual." "But then reports came of a bus crash with 23 casualties." "That same day, two planes collided." "No one could say if the disease was the cause of the accidents." "But people were terrified." "And either the panic spread the blindness." "Or the blindness spread the panic." "Casualties multiplied." "People decided to stay home." "And the traffic problems were solved." "My fellow citizens, friends, supporters." "Like so many of you, I have gone blind." "Maybe... maybe we need some music after all." "Leave it there." "And for the length of the song... the "Kingdom of the Blind" shrank to the circle of an AM radio." "One can only imagine the inclined heads... the wide eyes, the tears." "Why do they ask were they tears of joy or sorrow?" "Joy and sorrow are not like oil and water." "They coexist." "Ladies and gentleman, I need you to follow my voice." "Come towards my voice, and as you do, please, watch your step." " Right ahead." " Why is I warned you?" "For follow some one." " Do not push!" " Put it to the right." "Anyone attempting leave the premises will be corrected." "Hello?" "Excuse me!" "Sir?" "Can we have some guidance, please?" "Sir?" " Stay in line." " Please?" " Stay in line, little man." " Hello?" "Excuse me, sir?" "Some one?" " We need some guidance, please." " Stay in line." "Fuck!" "Attention." "The shovel you requested is waiting in the yard." "Choose one person to come and collect it." "One person." "Where is it?" "Straight ahead." "Just come." "Come this way." "Okay." "Good." "You're fine." "Next one's the ground." "That's okay." "Okay, keep coming." "Warmer." "Warmer." "Keep coming." "Oh, colder." "Stop." "Okay." "Turn to your right." "Good." "Now, keep going forward." "Okay." "Warmer." "Warmer, colder." "Stop." "Now, turn right again." "Yeah." "That's it." "Okay." "Good." "Very good." "Now keep going forward." "Go forward." "Good, warmer, colder, colder." "Stop, stop, stop." "Colder!" "Colder!" "Did you see that, Sarge?" "Did you see that?" "The blind adapt quickly." "Ward Three?" "Today, three newcomers were gunned down by the guards." "So, I think that the best solution would be that... each ward, takes one body, takes turns with the shovel and they bury their own share." " What do you mean our share?" "They're not ours." "Yes, but some of them would have probably come to this ward." "After they were turned away from yours..." "like I was." "Our ward is full." "The same here." "Okay, so we're all in the same position, right?" "Listen..." "I don't wanna argue." "I just wanna have these people buried." "And I think the fair thing to do is that each ward takes a body." "And then the job is quickly done." "All right?" "Good." "Now, there's the matter of food rationing." "It seems that one of the wards is taking more than their fair share." "So, I'm proposing that we put together some sort of committee... with a representative from each ward, and..." "Who the fuck are you?" "Who the fuck are you?" "Excuse me?" "Yeah!" "Yeah!" "Who do you think you are?" "Giving all these orders." "I am." "I'm the chosen representative from Ward One." "And I suggest that you people choose your own representative." "Otherwise we're gonna be at each other's throats constantly." " So you wanna talk to our leader?" " That's right." "Yeah, yeah." "Like in a diplomatic mission, negotiate?" "Yeah?" "Well, here we have a monarchy system." "And I hereby declare myself the King of Ward Three." " Long live the king!" " Long live the king!" " Any objections?" " Long live the king!" " Get the fuck out of here!" " Long live the king!" "For my first pronouncement I declare that everyone in Ward Three... will eat dinner before we think about getting, or burying any dead." "So, eat, eat." "Come on, eat." "Don't worry." "Don't worry." "You can't sleep like that." "You're filthy." "Give me your clothes." "I'll wash them tomorrow." "Go to sleep." "How are you?" "They don't know what it's like." "You gotta see it to believe it." "If you want something done, you gotta do it yourself." "Okay." "Okay." "Just try to get some sleep." "You're so hot." " I know you can see." " No, I can't I don't know why you think that." " Don't lie to me." "You trust me, huh?" "You trust me, then why don't you tell me the truth?" "You can't trust a thief, right?" "I got a secret too." "You know what?" "I'm smart." "And when I went blind, it made me think better." "I got a lot to contribute." "I'm sorry for being such a burden." "Oh, God!" "I can't take this." "Come on, lie down." "Get some sleep." "What time is it?" "What?" "What?" "What's the matter?" "Have you lost your sight?" "I forgot to wind my watch." "You fuckers." "Are you in pain?" " Look at me!" " Did you hear that?" "I'm gonna check it out." " Hey, fuckers!" " What the fuck song is that?" " It sucks." " You suck." "Whatever." "Fuck!" " Did you get him?" " Blood!" "There's blood, man, step back!" "It could be infected, step back!" "The Sarge is gonna fucking kill me." " Is this the right way to go?" " Yeah." "You know, he told me he knew I could see." "He told me that and I did nothing." "Nothing." " What could you have possibly did?" " You did everything you could." " I think I've to tell them, and..." " And then what?" " And maybe..." " Become their slave?" " I could help." "I could help." " It's bad enough as it is." " I can handle this." "No." "I'm not talking about you." "I'm talking about us." "Us!" "What?" "You dressing me, bathing me, wiping my ass." "For Christ sakes!" "It's hard enough to think of you as..." "As?" "As, as... what?" "As a wife." "Instead of my mother." "Or... or a nurse" "Well, you'll just have get used to it, won't you?" "'Cause..." "I don't..." "I don't have any choice." "You're right, I'll get used to it." "I guess I have to get used to it." "Do not tell a soul." " Oh, come on!" " Attention!" "Attention!" "The Government regrets having been forced to exercise..." "Fuck you!" "Attention!" "Attention!" "Attention!" "That's the last we're gonna hear from that asshole." "We're taking over this shit hole now." "I'm the King of Ward Three." "And there's gonna be a lot of changes around here." " What the fuck is that?" " Number One." "If you wanna eat, you'll have to pay for it." "And that's pretty much it, I guess." "Okay, and now, for our "grand finale"... a little song that comes from the bottom of my heart." "And it goes something like this," "I just called To say I love you" " I just called to say..." " I'm turning it off." " I'm turning it off." " No, no!" "I just called to say How much I care" "I just called To say I love you" "And I mean it from the bottom..." " I gotta push it!" " I've done it!" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Shut up!" "Shut up!" "Shut up!" "Or I'll just keep on shooting 'till somebody gets hit." " Back off..." " God, you blind people are stupid." "Screaming and crying like babies." "Makes me ashamed to be one of you!" "Ward Three is going to take charge of the food right now." " What?" " Like in a store!" "And like in the real world, we're gonna guard our store!" "So, don't even think of breaking in, okay?" "So, how... how do we pay for it?" "Excuse me." "Did I ask for any questions?" "He means... he means explain your rules." "How." "What." "What do you want us to do?" "Do want us to come one at a time, or all together." "What do you want?" " He said shut up!" " Okay." "I'll tell you what!" "We're gonna pile up the food, and we'll let you know the rules later." "Now go back to your wards, and get your money ready, okay?" " You know we don't have any money!" " Well, then whatever you got, lady!" "Shoot her right now." "I mean, one less mouth to feed." "If I had eyes, she'd be dead already, I tell you." "Now." "Jewelry, lady." "For example, watches, electronic shit." "Anything, anything you think we might like." " Excuse me?" " Yes?" "Yes?" " But how much is it for a meal?" " Well, man." "I don't know!" "Get your stuff together, and we'll let you know what you deserve, okay?" "And by the way!" "Don't, don't hide anything!" "All right?" "Understood?" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "Lady?" "Lady?" "Lady, I'll never forget your voice." "And I won't forget your face." "What the..." "What the fuck?" "Fuck." " This is wrong, man." " It's wrong but what else can we do?" " There's nothing to do." " We can stick together and just tell them "no. "" " We're going to stick together." "I'm not giving my stuff up because a nigger says I have to." "Hey, we don't know what race he is, man." " I can tell by his voice." " Fuck you." " Who the hell are these people?" " This is absolute bull shit!" "We don't have to do whatever the fuck they say!" "Cause they make an announcement!" "We don't have to back down!" " We can stand up to these guys!" " You're right!" " It's true." " We don't have a choice." " What?" " They've a weapon." "They've a gun." "But the point is they can't shoot us all!" "Yeah, exactly!" "Yes, but if they kill one of us, then, it's too many!" "I'm going to collect the valuables!" "No one has to give if they don't want to." "But don't expect to be fed at the expense of the rest of us." " Here." " I don't have anything." "Don't worry." "I'll be like your mom, okay?" "I'll pay for us both." " What if you don't have anything?" " It's just jewelry, everybody." "What can we do with it in here, anyway?" "Each give according to what they have, and all that." "Thank you." "Well, they better come through with the food." "Why are we doing this?" "This is what?" "Plastic?" "There's so much junk." "You know, I thought I told someone... to just tell them not to even bother putting the plastic in because it's a waste of my time." " I'll tell them." "I'll tell them." "These have some weight." "That's gold." "Two rings, possibly a diamond." "Yeah?" "That's good." "Oh, no." "Wait, wait, wait." "Got something here." "We're fine with these people." " Okay, good." "That was close." " It was actually, but it's okay." " All right, one." " One." " Two." " Two." " And... three." " Three." " That's it." " Three?" "We normally get four when we go by ourselves." "Well, now you get three." "You keep whining, you'll get two!" "Next!" "We're coming!" " Next!" " We're here." "All right." " We're from Ward One." " Ward One?" "Don't handle me!" "Okay, okay." "We're not gonna hurt you here." "Want your food?" " Watch your manners." " All right, it's here, it's here." " I wonder." "Can I touch this?" " Oh, man!" " Shit." "Fell down." " I think we've done." "Fuck!" " Nail polish, nail polish." " We got some good stuff here." " Yeah?" " Looking pretty good so far." "Yeah?" "Yeah, we're good?" "All right." "Take it, take it." " You're blind." " Thank you, professor." "You're using a Braille writer." "No, you..." "You're a normal blind person." "No, he's not normal." "He was born blind." "That makes him some kind of super hero in a world like this." " So you better watch out." " You of all people... born blind should understand empathy and human decency." " Shut up." "Shut up." "He's blind." "That's all." "That doesn't make him good or bad." "That just makes him blind." "And now, he's blind with a purpose." "Because he's looking out for the sick and the hungry of his own ward." " That's right." " How do you sleep with yourself?" "That's all we get?" "Is two boxes?" " Yeah, that's it." " But the others got a third box." "How are we suppose to survive on only two boxes?" "That's it." "That's it, no more." " It's immoral!" "A blind man..." " Shut up!" "Shut up!" " It's immoral!" " Shut up!" "Shut up." "Fuck off with the sermon, okay?" "Okay." "Get your food." "Get out." "And say "thank you" for what you got." "Understand?" "Understand?" "Understand?" "I understand." "Okay, okay." "Now say "thank you. "" "Thank you." " All right." "Okay." " Out!" "Out!" " Don't let them get to you." " No, it's fine!" "This fucking guy." "The son of a bitch." "He wants more." " How many people are in Ward One?" " 35." "We only have 24 meals, so everyone is gonna have to share." " What?" " I'm sorry." " This is all they gave us." " Quit shoving, everybody!" "Relax!" "Just find a partner." "Find a partner." "Two people to a meal." "Please!" "Just don't push, okay?" "Just stay in the line, okay?" "Guys, guys, stop pushing!" " Wanna eat something?" " Stop." "You have to eat something." "You have to eat a little something." "Stop it!" "Doctor?" " Are you here?" " Yes, I'm here." "Here." "Here." "Here." " I brought you some food." " No." "Jesus Christ, no." " This place is a toilet!" " It's not your fault." " You did everything you could." " No, no, I didn't." "The son of a bitch, he had his gun right in my throat." " Exactly." " I could've reached and taken it but." " And then what?" "And then what?" "I don't know." "If you did kill him it would've been way worse." "You would've started a war for sure." "A real war." "You're right." "Yeah, you're right." "I'll pretend like I thought that one through." "And it's not easy knowing that you've killed someone." "Like I did." "Oh, God!" " Hello?" " Don't say anything." "It'll be easier for me to understand." "I'm sorry, it's my fault." "I wanted." "Let's be quiet." "Let's all be quiet." "I can see." "I knew that." " At least I think I knew." " It's a secret." "So... it's been like a week or so... and you people have nothing left to offer." "So at Ward Three, we came up with a new plan." "Bring us your women." "Women for food." "Have a good day." "What's going on?" "We haven't eaten in three days!" "We gave you all the food we have!" "It's up to you to ration it!" "Distribution is your problem!" " Asshole." " Forget it!" "We're not doing that!" " Do you have any better idea?" " I'm not." "I'm not." "I'm not going!" "I'm not gonna go!" " No!" " Bull shit!" "No one's asking you to go." "Certainly not the men from this ward." "So, you can't blame us." "I think she brings up a good point." "And I think we should ask if there are any volunteers." " "Volunteers?"" " What are you talking about?" "Look, if there are any volunteers, I think they should say so now." "I wonder how many volunteers would we have if he said send us your men?" " It's not the same." " Oh, really?" "And why's that?" "Because it's just not." " Because there's no fags here." " Well, there's no whores either!" " That's debatable." " I gave myself to you out of pity... and now you think I'm some sort of goddamn whore?" " Doctor?" " What?" "Are you asking me for a deliberation here?" "I mean, my God!" "Of course I would rather that my wife didn't go." "But, what I want really doesn't matter." "It's completely up to her." "My "male pride", of course, is gonna be hurt." "But if that even exists in here, what does it matter anyway?" "We're all starving to death." "So, I just think that people should do whatever they feel like doing... according to whatever morality they have left." "There's nobody, forget it!" "Anybody." " I'll go." " No." "I'll go with her." "Me too." " All right, all right." "I'll go too." " I'll go too." "Well, you do whatever you like, but my wife is going nowhere." "Dignity has no price." "No one knows how many women are here." "You can do what you like, and we'll feed you both." "And then you can talk to me about dignity." " No, that's not the point." " I'm no different than the rest." " What?" " I'll do what they do." "You'll do what I tell you to do!" " Stop!" " Don't!" "Don't order me." "There's nothing worse." "No, it's disgusting." "From now on you don't eat." "How long do we wait before they come and get us?" "Get out of the way!" "Good evening." "How many ladies?" "Eight." " Nine." " Nine?" "Only nine?" "Well, you nine, will have to do double duty tonight." "If any of you is on the rag, we don't want you." "We will get you some other time." "No one's on the rag." "Then, get yourselves all gussied up and come over at your leisure." "We'll be waiting." "And the food will follow if we're happy." "In the mean time I've..." "I have brought you a little bit of bread to tide you over." "I think I have one more." "There you go." "Let's go." "There's no point in trying to run." "They have guards." "At least it would be faster." "We'd be dead by now." "No one's gonna die." "Come on." "They're coming!" "They're coming!" "Hey." "Welcome!" "Girls, okay, don't be afraid." "We're here to love you." "We're not going to hurt you, all right?" "Guys, don't get too excited, all right?" "Everyone's going to get their own girl, okay?" "We don't..." "Well, we share." "That's how we do things here, right?" "Okay." "I want you all in order from hot to cold, okay?" "The hottest, come here." "And the coldest go to the back of the line." "What's wrong with you?" "What's wrong?" "She's a bit of a dead fish." "Take care of her." "Give her some life." "Oh, man." "Where have you been all my life?" "Do I know you?" "It's okay!" "Yeah." "I take it!" "I take it!" "Why are you trembling?" "Are you trembling?" "No, easy, easy." "Okay." "You two are coming with us." "Are you blonde?" "Are you blonde?" "Okay." "All right." "Okay." "A bit on the mature side, but that's more I like it." "You like this?" "That's my gun." " You like it?" " No." "I don't." "Lady?" "Lady?" "Now, that's a surprise, lady." "You're coming with me." "If you let go I'll bite your nipples off." "Now, come on." "Now, suck." "Come on." " Come on." " No!" "I'm not asking, all right?" " Come on!" "Come on!" " I could bite it off." "Try it!" "I'll blow your fucking head off!" "You and your friend." "Or I'll tear you to pieces." "Come on!" "All right, lady!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Back it off!" "All right!" "There you go!" "Okay." "Okay, let's just speak." "Here we go." "It's okay, don't worry." "You're so tense." "Please, sit down." "Get the fuck out of here!" "Little bit tense, there we go." "May I suck on your nipples?" "Just a..." "Just a little bit." "There we go." "That wasn't so bad." "It's just a little tickle." "Come on, dead fish." "Move for me!" "Come on!" "Move now!" "Someone go get the food." "What happened?" "What happened?" "You okay?" "You want another story?" "Women of Ward Two, tonight is the big night!" " How many ladies?" " Seven." "Seven?" "You sure that's it?" "Count them again." " Seven!" " All right, if you've got seven." "How about the boy with the magic powers?" " You like that one, don't you?" " Yeah." " So, where did we leave off?" " This boy wasn't ordinary." " No." " He could turn invisible." "He had special powers." "And he turned invisible when they weren't looking." " All right." " It's when they looked, he wasn't..." "Good afternoon, ladies." "I just wanted to make sure that you've all recovered... from the fun that we had the other night." "No, no." "Seriously, I just wanted to touch base with any of you... that might be feeling a little bit of jealousy..." "I know that tonight is not your night... but I assure you that our hearts are still with you." "You men folk should be very proud of your ladies." "Very proud." "Well, one of them was kind of a dead fish... but the other ones performed like real pros." "There are only eight of us now." " Oh, what happened, did someone die?" " Yeah." "It's not a big deal, though." "She was kind of a dead fish." "I'm gonna finish the story later." "I promise." "I'll finish it later." "Who's that?" "Where you going, huh?" "Wait...!" "It's you, isn't it?" "What happened?" "!" "Help!" "What the fuck is going on?" "I know you're here!" " You don't even know my name!" " No." "I know your voice!" "Just say one more word!" "I dare you!" "Your dead friend said the same thing!" "Don't let them leave!" "Do not let them leave!" "You idiots!" "Do not let them leave!" " Let's go!" " You fucking jerks, stop them!" "Come back!" "Get back here!" "That's it!" "That's it for you!" "Ladies, no more food for you!" "Every day we go without food, one of your men will die!" "We collect from now on!" "You missed!" "He's dead!" "What's going on?" "Where are you?" "Where are you?" " Are you okay?" " Just go get the food." "They told me a man was killed." "I..." "I killed him." "Now there's gonna be a war." "They're going to want revenge." "We're gonna barricade our doors." "We'll use our beds like they did." "Whatever you say." "I'll get the food." "Oh, shit!" " Barricade it." "Barricade it!" " You got the door?" " Two beds!" " So fucking what... if send the women there twice a month?" "We'll get fucking fed!" "Stand it up!" "Barricade the thing!" "What I suggest we do is we find out who killed their leader... and offer them up like a peace offering." " We don't know what they're gonna..." " In exchange for food!" "They have a stock pile!" "We're in a state of war." " And we started it." " Yeah, exactly." "And I suggest we find out who killed the leader, and we offer to the..." "Look!" "Look!" "If they won't give us food, I say let's get it ourselves!" " I agree!" " Then, let's go!" "Okay, I think he's right." "If anyone's willing to go, I think you should raise your hand." "That's about the most ridiculous thing I've ever suggested." "How about, Whoever doesn't wanna fight... simply slip away right now, and no one will know you were here?" "And for those that are left, gather around me, and we'll make a plan." "Here." "Here." "Okay, how many of us are there?" " One." " Two." " Three." " Twelve." "I can see twelve of us." " What?" " She can see?" "Don't touch my fucking bed!" " What are you doing?" " What?" " I heard something!" " Someone's here!" " Who's there?" " I heard somebody!" " Who's there?" " I heard somebody!" "I have a chair over here." "If anybody could happen..." "Let's go, come on!" "Grab the person in front of you." "Stay in a tight group!" "Alright." "Straight ahead." "What..." "If we go back!" "We can't go back!" "Come on." "Let's move!" " What's that?" " Smoke." "Fire!" "Don't push!" "Fire!" "It's okay!" "It's okay!" "Stay there!" "I'm gonna come in get you." "Upstairs." "Upstairs." "Watch!" " Here." "Here I am." "Hold on to him." " They're going to shoot us." "Guards!" "Guards!" "You see what is going on?" "!" "Guards!" "We're free!" "It's empty." "Go on in." " Step up." " We're in a shop." "Everyone, please, stay together." "I don't wanna loose anybody else." "Step up." "All right." "I'm gonna go look for food." " I'll go with you." " No, I can do better on my own." "Stay here and look after each other." "It's something you can do better." "Get out!" "This place is occupied!" "There are other groups out there." "Do not leave this spot." "I know you can do it." "But how can you carry the food back on your own?" "Is there anything?" "Is there running water?" "I'll look for bottles." " I guess there's electricity." " No." "Are there any signs that people can still see?" "What's happening?" "I miss you." "I miss you so much." "Here's a supermarket." "I'll go in." " Okay." " Step up." "I'll stay here." "I know my place." "Stay off my fucking spot!" "I'm coming back!" "I'll fucking kill you!" "You stay off my fucking spot!" "Give it to me, you thief!" "You thief!" "You thief!" "Give it back!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "I can here you near my fucking spot!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "What do you have there?" "!" "What are you eating?" "!" "Smells like meat!" " No!" "No!" " Stop!" "Let on!" "It's me!" "It's me!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Okay." "Are you alright?" "Are you okay?" "Okay." "Okay." " I have..." "I have to stop." " Stop." "Stop." "Stairs." " You're all right." "You're safe." " Thank you." "I've go back and get those clothes before I forget where they are." "Here, eat something." "I'm just trying to say... people screaming out loud... that God is hiding... that we failed and that God is punishing us." "This is not what is happening." "God, it's not." "This is not the God's way." "What is happening to us reminds me of what happened to St. Paul." "Paul used to kill Christians, used to persecute them... but the Lord came to him and converted him." "And not only converted him, but blinded him." "This is what's happening to us." " Here!" " Here!" " Here I am!" " Here!" "Here." "Here, I have a jacket." " I have a jacket." " Thank you." "That's terrible." " Who would do that?" " Someone who went blind." "And then he went crazy." "Since he couldn't see... he didn't want his statue to see." " I don't think so, little man." " I don't know if it'd be possible... for a blind man to paint the painting like that." " Yes, they could." " Or likely a priest... who saw what happened, and had a crisis of faith." "No, but seriously, all those people made me think of how lucky we are... that we have a leader with vision." "So, I think it's up to you to decide what we should do next." "Well..." "I think we should stay here tonight, try to get some sleep." "And then, tomorrow, I was thinking that we could go to our house." "It's pretty near here, and it's big... so it can accommodate everybody." "Where are you, dog?" "Still there?" "No." "Don't follow that dog." "He'll lead you to a fire hydrant." "Too proud to be a seeing eye dog." "Twenty seven." "Five four." "Black hair." "Brown eyes." "I don't wanna know what you look like." "But how can we know each other?" "I know that part inside of you with no name." "And that's who we are, right?" "When you went to look for food, we talked to this man... that was part of a group that moved around together... trying to find food and shelter." "Each night they slept in a different place." "I asked him why he didn't sleep in his own home." "And he said he didn't know where it was anymore." " Yeah, he lost it." " They're welcome to it... if they can find their way to my little room." "I think it's okay." "Here we are." "Here we are." "Looks fine." "Come in." "Come in." "I can't believe it." "It's exciting." "Okay." "Careful." "Just because the door was locked... doesn't mean that no one's here." "Hello!" "Hello!" "Hello!" "Is anyone here?" "Maybe we should take our shoes off." "Right?" "That's a good idea." "You can leave them by the door." "We don't wanna mess the place up." "We just arrived." "If you wanna take off your clothes too... we have plenty of clean ones upstairs." " Thank you." " Are you talking to me?" "No, to everyone." "Our clothes are just as dirty as our shoes." " Here?" "All together?" " Come on!" "She's the only one who can see!" "If it makes you feel better, it's getting pretty dark." "All right." "If you insist." "I'm sure you've seen worse sights than this old body." "I want you to feel at home here because this is your home now too." "Thank you both." "We're all flattered that you would offer your home." "It's our pleasure." "Kick us out when you had enough." "Or when I become too much of a burden." "Just tell me, and I'll just wander off like an elephant." " You're not an elephant." " I'm not a man, either." " You're plenty of a man, babe." " I..." "I don't know." "I haven't seen myself in so long." "I must look ridiculous." "No, no." "Dirty and skinny." "But not ridiculous." "Not at all." " And what about me?" " You're beautiful." "Yeah." "Not like you." " You've never seen me." " But in my dreams you're beautiful." "How come you never appeared in my dreams but I know you're beautiful?" "Well, that's why blindness is a gift to the ugly." " Come on, you're not serious." " No... but I suppose I was more beautiful before!" "We were all more beautiful before." "Is anyone cold?" " It feels so good!" " I'm having a great time!" "Hello?" "It's me." " I brought you some hot water." " Oh, thank you." " I'm gonna pour it down, okay?" " Okay." " Feels good?" " Feels good." "I hope we can find the boy's parents." "What do you hope for?" "Nothing is more ridiculous than the desires of an old man." "Tell me." "I wanna know." "You wouldn't understand." " Why that tone of voice?" " What tone?" "That one." "What I hope is that we can go on living together." " As we are." "Like this." " Blind?" "For me nothing has been better." " I'd want us to live together." " Together with me, or with everyone?" "Don't make me say." "I want to know." "Are we alone?" "Is anyone listening?" "Good." "Good." "I wanna live with you." "I remember that New Year's." "It was cold, but I didn't mind." "All right." "At this end of the table we have pees and carrots." "At the center we've olives in a bowl and some crackers on a small plate." "And, at the far end of the table, we have anchovies." "Anchovies!" "Don't we have a special bottle of something sparkling for our guests?" "There's nothing like water." "Clean water." "I'd like to propose a toast." "To our family." " To our human family." " And the dog!" " And the dog!" " And the dog!" "And the dog!" " Salute!" " Salute!" "Much better than any champagne." "I see you." "When I touch you like this, I see your face." "So beautiful." "It's all I need to remember." " Tell me, is this working?" " Let's see." "You take another one." "Take another of me in the face." "Blind inspiration." "There's coffee, if anybody wants some." " I'll have some, please." " I want some too." "I need to wake up." "Honey?" "Honey?" "I think we should get together and talk about what we need to do." "There's not much food left, and I'm worried about security." " Okay." " I can pour it for you." "It's hot." "It's you." "It's you!" "Oh, my God!" "It's everyone at here." "Hi." " What?" " I can see you!" " What are you saying?" " I can see you!" " What?" " Yes." " What are you talking about?" " Everything is beautiful!" "I can..." " What?" " Oh, my God!" " What do you mean, you can see?" " Hey, you!" "I can see you." "I got back my sight!" " What is it?" " Come here." " I can see!" " How?" " I can see!" " You're lying." " What?" " Really?" " You have your sight?" " Yeah!" "You're kidding!" " You're eyes!" " Nice to meet you." " Oh, my God!" " He can see!" " I can't believe it!" " He sees!" "He sees!" " I thought he was kidding!" " No." " Hey, you guys!" " What this mean?" "I can see everybody's face!" " Oh, my gosh!" " I know." "I can't believe it!" "I can see you." "I love you guys!" "You guys are so beautiful!" "At that moment... the same unspoken thought occurred to everyone," ""He was the first to go blind." "Perhaps... we will all regain our sight in turn. "" "So the celebration was not entirely selfless." "The next days, the next weeks... would therefore be sleepless with anticipation." "They would see again." "This time, they would really see." "But who would be so timid... as to cling to this blanket of blindness?" "Who would be so foolish as to fear... that its intimacies might be lost?" "And what of this woman... who is now so strangely silent... who has borne such a terrible weight... and is now so suddenly free?" "Already she could imagine the voices of the city, shouting," ""I can see!"" ""I'm going blind", she thought."

"I'm afraid it's a no, Frank." "Well, well, well." "That's a body blow, I can tell you." "I am sorry." "A blow." "No two ways about that." "Five more years, eh?" "What do they think I am?" "They think I'm like one of those Cunts in the Bible that live forever?" "Is that what they think?" " I'm not sure." "They make an assessment." " I've written letters, you know." "Letters to every Cunt." "Even wrote to the Queen." " You've written to the Queen?" " Aye." "Never got back to us, like." "Too fucking busy to speak to the working classes." "Different story when she needs a soldier." ""Step this way, Mr. Begbie." "Sign here, Mr. Begbie."" "I didn't know you'd served in the army." "I haven't." "How could I?" "I've been in the fucking jail for 20 years." " You not fucking notice?" " Of course, of course." "Diminished responsibility." "If that Cunt in the original trial had put on a proper defense of diminished responsibility," "I could've walked out that door a free man." "I think, for you, that the best policy..." "Did you mention it?" "The diminished responsibility." "Did you mention it?" " At the hearing?" " Aye." "Did you?" " I felt it was more constructive..." " Didn't fucking mention it." "I cannot believe it." "What was the last fucking thing I told you?" "Mind and mention the diminished responsibility, you fucking dumb Cunt!" "I think it would be better if we brought this meeting to a close, and you and I get together once you've had time to reflect upon the situation." "So you gonna press that little yellow button or no?" "Cunt!" "Daylight saving." "Me, I'm no one way or another when it comes to daylight." "Like, neither a saver nor a spender." "More like just agnostic, you know?" "Unfortunately, daylight hasn't shown the same ambivalence towards me." "I had a job..." "Construction." "Laboring, a bit of carpentry, a bit of plumbing now and again." "I mean, it wasn't my first choice of vocation, but the cuts at the benefit office made it clear." "No coal, no dole." "So, I'm off the skag." "I'm seeing Gail, little Fergus, though he's not so little any more, but this was back then." "Basically, I'm holding it together." "Then, one morning, I gets to work and gets fired for being an hour late." "And then, one hour late at the DSS to explain why I lost the job." "And an hour late to appeal against losing my benefits." "And an hour late for my work-focused interview." "An hour late for my supervised visit with little Fergus." "And late again to social services to explain why." "Eventually, I let on to it." "It was the clocks." "Going forward one hour." "British Summer Time, they calls it." "It wasn't even warm." "I was still wearing a jumper." ""Happens every year, Mr. Murphy."" "How was I supposed to know?" "I've been on skag for 15 years." "You know how it is..." "Daylight isn't exactly high on your agenda when you got a habit." "It's for farmers and that." "Dudes who need to tend to the livestock." "It's not for junkies who need to score." "So that was me." "No job, no money." "No access to the little fella." "And then you went back on the heroin." "My best friend." "Actually, only friend who's never left us." "What is this?" " This is for you." " What?" "It's a recording." "A keepsake so the memory need never fade." " Who are you?" " I'm your blackmailer." "And your salvation." "You cooperate with me, no one will ever see this video." "Now, my research suggests that, as deputy headmaster of one of Edinburgh's leading private schools, you earn, near enough, £70,000 per annum." "It's not in my interest to squeeze you too hard, and it's not in your interest to provoke me." "So let's meet in the middle." "10% of your salary per annum." "Paid monthly on a rolling, indefinite basis." "You disgusting shit!" "I will not stand for this!" "Naturally, you'll have to lie to your wife." "If you need inspiration, just imagine her reaction to that." "Or how this might interest the pupils of that leading private school." "I think they might enjoy the interlude with the strap-on." "I know I did." "I'm gonna text you the details of a bank account." "I expect to see a £1,000 payment in there... ..by the end of the week." "Hi!" " Welcome to Edinburgh." " Welcome to Edinburgh." "Welcome to Edinburgh." "Hi." "Welcome to Edinburgh." " Welcome to Edinburgh." " Hi." "Welcome to Edinburgh." " Excuse me." " Yes?" "Where are you from?" " Slovenia." " Oh." "Franco?" "Franco." "Come on in." "All right?" " You ready?" " Aye." "You got it?" "I hope you've not been fucking drinking." " No, no way, Franco, man." " Right." "Once here." "Once here." "Not too deep." "Just two little jabs." "Bit of blood." " No damage." "All right?" " Right." "No bother, Franco." "All right." "All right, do it." " Are you sure?" " Just fucking do it." "You fucking prick!" " You've stabbed us in the liver." " Shit." "Sorry, Franco." "Shit." "You still want me to do the second one?" "No, no, you're all right, Dozo, son." "I think you've done quite enough already." "Shit." "Fuck." "Grease me up." "Give it tight, though." "Slap it." "Slap it." "Shit!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Don't fucking touch her!" "Don't you fucking touch her." "You in this with her, are you?" "You fuck!" "Fuck off!" "I see you again, Cunt, you fucking die." "Fuck off!" " Where were you?" " I was just next door." "You took a long time." "We should get a new clock." "This thing looks too obvious." " I'm not doing this again." " We'll take a break from it." " Okay?" " No, Simon." "I said I'm not doing this." "I feel sick." "Well, calm down, okay?" "Worked the first time okay, didn't it?" " I'm going back to work for Doyle." " Doyle?" "No, no, no, you're not doing that." "Not in the sauna." " Why not?" " Doyle's a gangster." "In the sauna, no man would dare to hurt a woman." "Mr. Doyle won't let that happen." "I don't like to think of you working there, okay?" "Why not?" "Because I fuck men?" "How is this better?" "I could have been killed and you would have done nothing because you were sitting next door, taking cocaine." "Please, I want to go home." "It was very peaceful at the end." "She kept your room exactly how you left it." "She always hoped you'd come back someday." ""Gail." ""I wish that I could find better words today to tell you I'm sorry." ""You shouldn't have to read this, because I already made you suffer too much." ""But I know that you and Fergus" ""are living in a better world without all my chaos." ""I'm sorry for all the things I destroyed." ""You are so beautiful." ""The most beautiful in the world." ""And I only ever made this world ugly." ""Fergus needs things to be simpler." ""I know how embarrassed he is about me." ""I could not be the man that you both need." ""I've tried and tried and tried for 20 years, and everything I try is another disaster." ""I love you." ""I love Fergus more than anything." ""But I'm finished, Gail." ""I'm sorry." ""Love you both." ""I want to see you both smile again." ""Danny boy."" "Fuck." "Spud!" "Spud." "Spud!" "Spud." "Fucking hell!" "Fuck!" "Fuck!" "Fuck." "You!" " You, you bastard!" " What?" "What the fuck are you doing to me?" "I was just fucking saving your life!" "Save my life?" "You ruined my fucking life, Mark." "You ruined it!" "Now you're ruining my fucking death, too!" "Thanks a lot, Amigo." "Fucking shit!" "I did what I could for you!" "I gave you £4,000!" "What did you think I was gonna do with £4,000, Mark?" "I was a fucking junkie!" "Aye, suppose you were." "I still am!" "Fuck's sake." "You're looking well, though, Mark." "Aye." "Everyone says that." "Gonna be sticking around for a while?" "No, I'm supposed to go back in a couple of days." "Can you not stay a bit longer?" "It'd be nice to see you, get to, you know, spend some time together." "I don't know." "I don't know." "I missed you, man." "Don't go trying to kill yourself again, eh?" "No." "Not while I got my friend in town, eh?" "So..." "You see old Simon?" "Simon?" "No, no." "He's probably too busy." "You got to see old Simon, man." "You know how it was, Spud." "You and Simon was like that, man." "Hello, Frank." "How are you feeling this morning?" "A bit sore, doll." "Well, I'm sure we'll soon be able to get rid of these tubes." "Thanks, darling." "Give us your wrist, Frank." "I'm off for a dump." "Come on." "Give us a break." "That's the regulations, Frank." "Where the fuck am I going to go, all these tubes stuck to me?" "Give a man a little bit of dignity for once, eh?" "Aye." "All right, Frank." "You're a good man, Mr. Wilson." "I respect you for that." "Ya fucking prick." "Excuse me, sir." "Are you all right?" " Can I help?" " Aye." "You can." "Hello, Mark." "Simon." "So, what you been up to for 20 years?" "I've been in Amsterdam." " Nice." " All right." "What else?" "Married?" "Aye." " Nice." " Dutch woman." " Kids?" " Two." " Boys or girls?" " One of each." "Little Mark, eh?" "Bet he's a chip off the old block." "James, actually." "And Laura." "How about you?" "I have a son." "He's in London with his fucking whore mother." " See him?" " Pretty regular." "Currently once every 10 years." "All right." "Job?" "Aye." "I did an accounting course." "I work for a small business." "Stock management software for the retail sector." "Very nice." "Well, as you can see, I'm running my old auntie's pub." "Very few customers and they don't spend much." "Sometimes it's not even worth opening." "The great wave of gentrification has yet to engulf us." "But there we go, eh?" " My lot in life." " I see." "£16,000!" "You thieving fucking bastard!" "You missed a trick!" "That's what hurts, isn't it?" "That I had the brains and the fucking balls to steal the money and you didn't!" "Fucking get off me." " Fucking hell!" " Bastard." "Shit!" "Fuck!" "You fucking bastard." "Are you all right?" "It will be fine." "Where is she?" "None of your business." "Saved your life, though." "This is for you." "Fuck's sake." "We did a deal back then." "Twenty years ago." "Couple of bags of H. Good quality stuff." "We took it to London." "Me, him, Begbie, Spud Murphy." "Sold it." "Not a bad price." "£16,000, to be divided in four equal parts." "He ran off with it." "Took it all." "And now what does he think I am, a whore?" "He can just pay me off?" "£4,000, not even any interest." "What am I supposed to do with that?" "Buy a fucking time machine?" "Live my life all over again?" "Only this time without being robbed and betrayed by my best fucking friend!" "No, it doesn't work like that." "What I'm gonna do, Veronika, is I'm gonna draw him back in as my friend, my very best friend, my partner, and then I'm gonna hurt him." "I'm gonna hurt him in every way that I can." " £200 short." " I owed someone." "Yeah, you bought cocaine." "Shut it." "Veronika..." "I'm gonna make him sorry he ever came back." "Shut up!" "What's the fucking matter with you?" "Frank, is that you?" "Who the fuck else it gonna be?" "But the police might be watching." "Well, that's why I came in the back window, woman." "Do you still got my kitbag?" " Of course." " Good." "Frank, you're bleeding." "It's nothing." "Just get us a plaster or something." "Here, let me." "No, leave it, leave it." "Dad?" "Franco Junior." "Ya Cunt, you." "Ya fucking beauty." "But, Dad..." "That's right, son." "I'm home." "But what are you gonna do?" "I'm not gonna be sitting on me ass watching fucking telly all day." "That's for sure." " Frank, what if..." " No, no, listen." "You and me, son." "You and me." "We're gonna go out there and do a bit of business together." "I've enrolled in college, Dad." " What?" " I'm doing a diploma in hotel management." "Good one." "Fucking..." "Fucking had us there." "Seriously, son, you and me, you and me." "That's it." "Look at him, June." "Look at our boy." "He cannot fucking wait." "Fuck!" "Never mind, Frank." "It's just great to have you back." "I'm getting builders." "Look." "These are partitions." "Eight rooms." "Sixteen girls." "Two shifts." "We could be turning over £10,000 a week every week of the year." " So, where's my office?" " What?" "I'll need an office if I am to be Madame Veronika." "All right." "Your office..." "Is there." "You have money for all this?" "I'm gonna find the money and I'm gonna do this for you." "But when, Simon?" "I cannot live on a promise." "Soon." "I promise." "Come on, Spud!" "I'm with you, Mark." "Go on, Mark." "Almost halfway, Spud." "Come on." "Thanks, brother." "Can't fail again, Mark." "You know, I need to detox the system." "Spud. "Detox the system."" "What does that even mean?" "It doesn't mean anything." "It's not getting it out of your body that's the problem." "It's getting it out of your mind." "You are an addict." "You think I haven't heard that 100,000 times, Mark?" "You got 12 more steps for me, comrade?" "So be addicted." "Be addicted to something else." "Like running until I feel sick?" "Yes." "Or something else." "You've got to channel it." "You've got to control it." "People try all sorts." "Some people do boxing." " Boxing?" " Well, it's just an example." "I don't..." "I don't mean you should..." "So, what did you channel it into?" "Getting away." "Do you remember, Mark..." "You remember that girl, Sharron?" "Lived in Granton." "Tall." "Well, taller than us anyway, at the time." "Yeah, I remember her." "Your very first sexual encounter." " Right." " Mine too." "Okay." "You remember shoplifting in Woolworths together and you got caught, you gave my name?" " Yeah." " How about this one?" "Warm day, sunny afternoon." "Two young lads, and we clubbed together and bought our very first hit off Swanney." "Our very first bag of heroin." " Do you remember that?" " Yes." " Swanney's dead now, of course." " Be astonished if he wasn't." "And we went down that park, back of Banana Flats." " Dog shit park." " Yeah." "And we shared a needle." "Shared a needle, yeah." "You went first." "Your blood runs in my veins, Mark." "Would you stop looking at your fucking watch?" " I have a flight to catch." " Shit." "Excuse me a moment." "Fuck." "Fuck!" "So you're Plan B." "Yes." "I am to persuade you to stay and help him." "It will mean so much to have his oldest friend by his side in this exciting new business opportunity." "He told you to say that." "Yes." "Did he choose your dress?" "No." " You like it?" " It's very nice." "Is he taking cocaine in there?" "Probably." "Is he doing that a lot?" "As often as he can." " Where is he?" " Gone." "Gone?" "How could you let him go?" "Simon." "Simon!" "How could you let him go?" "I'm not finished yet." "I'm not finished with him!" "The fuck are you staring at?" "Cunt robbed me of £16,000." "Good morning, ladies and gentlemen," "I'm getting divorced." "You just came back to tell me that?" "Of course, any misfortune which befalls you is music to my ears." "I was supposed to go back and move my stuff out." "She owns the apartment." " And the children?" " There aren't any." " None?" " No." "So when you said wife, two kids..." "James and..." " Laura." " Laura, that wasn't strictly true?" " No." " Why'd you lie to me?" "'Cause I didn't want to tell you the truth." "And the no-kids thing, was..." "Was that a problem?" "It's none of your business." "Yes, it was a problem." "It was a fucking big problem." " All right?" "That make you happy?" " A little bit." "Oh, fuck off." "It's all over, the marriage." "Fifteen years." "And then the company I work for, that's merging with another." "There'll be no room for me." "Not enough qualifications." "I can see that coming." "I don't need to wait for the fucking letter." "And then three months ago, I suffered what I've been told was a..." "An episode of acute coronary insufficiency." "Like a heart attack." "They put a tube in here." "And I've got a metal stent in my left coronary artery." "Good as new, apparently." "Good as new." "Should last another 30 years, they said, but... they didn't say what to do with those 30 years." "Two or three, fine, I'll take that." "I can cope with that." "I can think of enough things to do to piss away what remains." "But... 30?" "What am I supposed to do with that?" "I'm 46 and I'm fucked!" "I've got no home." "I've got nowhere that I think of as a home." "I don't really know anyone." "And what's the substance of our acquaintance?" "Friendship, please." "You ask me to get involved in some stupid scheme to finance and establish and run a brothel." "Sauna, please." " A brothel." " Well..." "The sad thing is..." "The most pathetic thing of all is that I can't think of anything better." "So you're gonna help me?" "Find the money?" " Where's Veronika?" " She's not here." "She doesn't really like staying over." "She complains that it's a mess, all that sort of thing." " Does she?" " Yeah." " Not why you stayed, is it?" " What?" " Her, Veronika." " No, of course not." "No?" "'Cause she's my girlfriend." " Yeah, I know that." " Good." " It's not a mess, is it?" " No." "It's just masculine." "What is this?" "Come here." "Just do exactly what I told you." "You'll be fine." "Grab anything you can carry." "Get the telly at the end." "Go!" " There?" " Shut up." " Fuck's sake!" " I'm sorry." "Who's there?" "Hello?" "What the fuck's going on down here?" "What the fuck?" " I'm sorry." " Cunt!" "Ya Cunt, you!" "You fucking beauty, you!" "How you doing, Mikey?" "Hey." "Bring in the telly." "Who's this, then?" "This big handsome bastard is none other than my son." "Franco Junior, meet Mikey Forrester." " So you're teaching him the trade?" " He's a little bit to learn though, eh?" "Well, you're in the right hands, son." "He's got the talent, I'll tell you that." "We had a spot of bother." "Concerned citizen came down the stairs, fucking tooled up and all." "I was on the back foot, I can tell you." "But Franco Junior here took him out and no mistake." "Well, no, it wasn't quite like that." "Takes after his old man, eh?" "Don't you?" " Cheers, boys." " See you again." "I covered up for you there." " I'm sorry, Dad." " See, if that happens again, son or no son, it's gonna be a fucking kicking, right?" "Right, Dad." "Right." "Come on." "Never mind, Frank." "Oh, fucking shut up." "♪A light had shone in the night ♪" "♪Somewhere ahead ♪" "♪ And blue had turned into green ♪" "♪ Then it was red... ♪" "This place is a goldmine." "It's a certainty."

"And he comes into the room, and there is Georgie Best lying on the bed with two Playboy models." "Three in a bed, champagne and a little bit of Charlie, and there's banknotes." "But they're lying on the banknotes." " Lying on the money?" " Yes." " Why?" " I don't know." "Because he has a lot of money." "Or at least he had a lot of money at the time, anyway." "The room service guy, he comes in, and he sees this scene that I just described to you, and he says, "George Best..."" "Greatest footballer of all time." "Exactly. "The greatest footballer of all time, I have to ask you," ""'Where did it all go wrong?" "'"" "Where did it all go wrong?" " Where did it all go wrong, George Best?" " Yeah, but..." "I think that the room service guy, you know..." "I think he makes a very good point." "No?" "He played for Hibs in 1979 between stints for the Fort Lauderdale Strikers and the San Jose Earthquakes." "I went to see him play, apparently." "My dad took me." "He said, "You've got to see this." "You've got to see this player." ""Got to see this greatest footballer of all time."" "So it was a big game, it was a big crowd, and a big guy in front of me." "I couldn't see a thing." "Not a single thing." "Not for 90 minutes." "But I've got the programme, so..." "I mean, I've always got that, you know?" "Thin." "Thin." "Nobody was fat back then." "It's not just the football, is it?" " It's the end of austerity." " There was no such thing even" " as a calorie till 1974." " Welcome to the new age of" " civil rights, space exploration." " You know what happened in 1974?" "The first McDonald's in the UK." "He's basically John Barry with football boots." "See, look at that guy." "He would be scrawny today." "A great, swaggering, filthy piece of music." "But then..." "That was totally normal till 1974." "It's insurrection!" " That's the beauty of what he does." " You know what happened in 1974?" "First McDonald's." "South London." "Woolwich." "These are not goals." "These are political statements."

" He doesn't want to go, Frank." " Doesn't want to go?" "Where else you gonna go?" "I was actually gonna go and meet some friends from the college." "From the college, is it?" "Right." "Well, that's a blow and no mistake, no two ways about that." "Sorry, Dad." "Some way to treat your old man." " Please, Frank." " You shut the fuck up!" "Hotel fucking management." "You put him up to this." "Dad, it's not like that." "Shut the fuck up! "Dad."" "Maybe I'm not your dad." " I see it now." " No, Frank." " Dad, leave it." " "Leave it"?" "I don't want to fucking leave it!" "What if I don't want to fucking leave it?" "What you gonna do about that, eh?" "Tell you what..." "Free pop." " No, Frank!" " Shut it." "Come on." "Stick one on then, you Cunt." "Take a fucking swipe at me." "Do it." "Do it!" "No, you cannot fucking do that." "See, if you were my son, you'd have stabbed us there." "I'd be lying, breathing my last through a hole in my chest." "But you cannot fucking do that." "What do you want?" " Yep." " Mark." "What?" "Need a lawyer." "So, as I understand it, the complainant, a deputy headmaster, alleges that he's been the victim of attempted extortion." "How does Sick Boy intend to plead?" "It's actually "Simon" these days." "Right." "Simon." "Oh!" "I see." "I'm... no-not guilty." "Fine." "Off the record, the police have told me that the USB drive does have Simon's prints on it and that in searching the flat, they found the mobile that the bank details were sent from." "Right." "As well as the cocaine, of course." "Well, that was just for personal use." "Quite a lot for personal use." "Well, you know Simon." "I certainly remember him." " Does he still take heroin?" " No." "Do you?" "No." "Not for 20 years." "That's really good." "Well done." "So, are you the woman in the video?" "My face is not seen." "Do you have any identifying marks?" "Tattoos on your buttocks?" "Certainly not." "On your perineum?" "It's the bit of skin between your vagina and your bumhole." "That's disgusting." "So you're not vajazzled." "May I ask, what is your relationship with the accused?" "We are friends." "Mark?" "I really don't have anything else to add." "Well..." "Perhaps we have a defense." "Simon may claim that the recording was consensual, was, in fact, commissioned by the complainant." "Hence the request for payment." "He pleads guilty on the cocaine, which, remarkably, is a first offense, enters into an approved rehab, £1,000 fine, six months suspended." "This consultation is free." "Should we go forward, here's the cost." "Well, that's very reasonable." "It's an hourly rate." "'Course." "Thanks." "Mark." "She's too young for you." "Here it is." ""EU Small Business Development Loans." ""Zero-interest loans distributed regionally" ""towards projects that stimulate regeneration of formerly industrial areas." ""Loans are available of up to £100,000." ""Applications should be made online," ""which may be followed by an invitation to present a business plan."" "Blah, blah, fucking blah." "I'm trying to help you, Simon." "We're blowing all that cashpoint money on lawyer's fees." "You could've got someone cheaper." "Well, I wouldn't have had to get anyone at all if you hadn't engaged in fucking blackmail." "Is there anything left of your £4,000 I gave you?" "No, I've got expenses, just like everyone else." "What, all of it?" "You snorted the whole fucking wad?" "It's called debt, Mark." "The point is, we need cash now, not in six months' time." "And you realize what's at stake here?" "I promised to set up a sauna for Veronika." "And if I don't get it up and running soon, she's gonna leave me." " Fucking leave you anyway." " No, it's not gonna happen." " Is she actually even with you?" " She's my girlfriend." "You've never even fucked her." "I have fucked her, and I'll fuck her again." " What?" "When she was working at the sauna?" " That's not fair." "You know, since we're having this conversation," "I can tell you that fully consensual, emotionally driven, not-for-profit sexual intercourse has been attained." "Simon, you're a romantic." "Veronika and I have had our rough patches." "I'll be the first to admit that." "Shall we submit this application?" "Do what you want, but I need someone on-site working." "I need progress." "Now." "All right, Spud, we're upstairs." " All right, Mark." " Come in." "When clients come in, I want a sense of space." "Yeah." "Maybe some soft lighting, help punters feel a bit more relaxed and that, you know?" "Exactly." "I'm so glad that someone understands." "And they're off and racing." "Woody Bay was a little awkward out of the stalls and also to gather stride." "Out well towards the right, Fine 'n' Dandy is racing solo early on." "Steventon Star down the center with Jacob's Pillow." "Hello, Franco." "Simon." " But you're not..." " I'm out." " "Out"?" " Aye." "Fucking shut up." "Yeah, sorry if I seemed a little shocked to see you, Frank." "It's just..." "Well, I was gonna..." "I was gonna deal with this myself and then give you the good news, but..." "You're not gonna believe this." "So, two days ago, I got a call from an old friend of mine." "Gav Temperly." "You remember him?" "Aye." "Anyway." "He's on business in Amsterdam." "And he's in a cafe one morning, and he hears this voice beside him." "A whiny, Cunty voice." "No." "So he turns around, right?" "This is two fucking days ago." "I'm just getting over it myself." " There he is." " Holy fucking moly." "Hasn't changed in 20 years." "Very same smug, little Cunty grin across his ugly face." " For fuck's sake!" " Aye, Renton." "Mark fucking Renton." "Living in Amsterdam all this time on our money." " Cunt." "Did Renton clock him?" " No." "So Gav followed him." "He went into an office block not far from the center of town." "And Gav had to split then, but he's gonna go back." "He's gonna hang out, he's gonna follow Renton home, and then..." " And we're gonna pay him a visit." " Exactly." " I need a passport." " I can get you one." "I'll take some weapons." "Well, we can probably get weapons there, Franco." "Aye." "Probably." "They've got that kind of stuff in Amsterdam, eh?" "Aye." "Now, the important thing is for you to keep your head down." "Low profile till the passport comes through, till I get the tickets." " 'Cause this is an opportunity, Frank." " Right." "I'm gonna fucking tear him to pieces." "You most definitely fucking will." "Simon and I do not sleep together." "No?" "I had wondered." "Once, but..." "I'm his girlfriend, but it's business, really." "Simon is not a good person." "But I like him." "More than he likes himself, I think." "Right, but if you're not..." "If there's no physical aspect to your relationship," "I mean, you don't want to be, like..." "You know, wasting your time." "What's "choose life"?" " What?" " "Choose life."" "Simon says it sometimes." "He says, "Choose life, Veronika."" ""Choose life."" ""Choose life" was a well-meaning slogan from a 1980s antidrug campaign." "And we used to add things to it." "So I might say, for example, choose..." "Designer Lingerie in the vain hope of kicking some life back into a dead relationship." "Choose handbags." "Choose high-heeled shoes." "Cashmere and silk to make yourself feel what passes for happy." "Choose an iPhone made in China by a woman who jumped out of a window, and stick it in the pocket of your jacket fresh from a South Asian firetrap." "Choose Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, Instagram and a thousand other ways to spew your bile across people you've never met." "Choose updating your profile." "Tell the world what you had for breakfast and hope that someone, somewhere cares." "Choose looking up old flames, desperate to believe that you don't look as bad as they do." "Choose live-blogging from your first wank to your last breath." "Human interaction reduced to nothing more than data." "Choose ten things you never knew about celebrities who'd had surgery." "Choose screaming about abortion." "Choose rape jokes, slut shaming, revenge porn, and an endless tide of depressing misogyny." "Choose 9/11 never happened, and if it did, it was the Jews." "Choose a zero-hour contract and a two-hour journey to work, and choose the same for your kids, only worse." "And maybe tell yourself it's better that they never happened." "And then sit back and smother the pain with an unknown dose of an unknown drug made in somebody's fucking kitchen." "Choose unfulfilled promise and wishing you'd done it all differently." "Choose never learning from your own mistakes." "Choose watching history repeat itself." "Choose the slow reconciliation towards what you can get rather than what you always hoped for." "Settle for less and keep a brave face on it." "Choose disappointment." "And choose losing the ones you loved." "And as they fall from view, a piece of you dies with them." "Until you can see that one day in the future, piece by piece, they will all be gone." "And there'll be nothing left of you to call alive or dead." "Choose your future, Veronika." "Choose life." "Anyway, it amused us at the time." "I like you, Mark." "Fuck." "What are you gonna do?" "I'm going to be the madame in Simon's bordello." "But really..." "What are you gonna do?" "I don't know." "I should go home." "But..." "To go home with nothing?" "No qualification, no career, not even bringing money." "What's at home?" "You know." "Emotional attachment." "That's all." " All set?" " Yeah, fine." "You're okay?" " Aye." " Sure?" " Why?" " Nothing." " Why?" "What's happened?" " No, nothing's happened." "I'm just..." "I'm just enjoying us working together." "That's all." "Good." "So..." " Shall we go in?" "Right." " Aye." "Jesus." "This is the renovation and conversion of an iconic Leith building." "We see it very much as being an artisanal bed-and-breakfast experience." "A destination in its own right." "Artworks by local artists on the walls." "Locally sourced fresh food." "Outreach programmes to inspire children in school to think outside the box." "To inspire in them a belief that..." "Yes, they can." "There was a time when this port served thousands of ships around the globe." "Now it can rise again." "And we believe our business will occupy a central role, both physically and emotionally, at the heart of this new wave of regeneration in Leith." "Leith 2.1." "Exactly." "We used to steal all this stuff." "Fancy wallpaper." "Sell on to the middle classes and that." "Me and Mark used to steal all kinds of stuff, actually." "Till we got caught." "He got off." "I got six months." "Still, you find out what you're good at inside." "Signatures..." "That's what I found out." "Anyone's." "If I seen it once, I can do it." "So, when I got out, "Bye-bye, shoplifting." "Hello, checkbook." "Hello, cheque card."" "Up to Western Union." "Signature, cash in hand." "Up to Swanney's, pay off my debts, buy some skag." "I was a portable fucking goldmine." "So, what happened?" "Chip and PIN, debit cards, e-banking." "Billionaires moving money at the touch of a button." "There's no room for an honest artisan like me any more." "So, what did you do?" "Back on the pavement." "Seven days a week." "I like your stories." "I think you should write them down." "You think?" "Yeah." "Just write them the way you say them." "They're funny." "I would like to read them." "Mark and Simon can help." ""Tommy looks well." ""It's terrifying." ""He's gonna die." ""Sometime between the next few weeks and the next 15 years," ""Tommy will be no more." ""Chances are that I'll be exactly the same." ""Difference is we know this with Tommy." ""Tommy cannot get out." ""He cannot afford to heat his home," ""put himself in a bubble," ""live in the warm, eat good fresh food," ""keep his mind stimulated with new challenges." ""He will only live five or 10 or 15 years before he is crushed." ""Tommy will not survive winter in West Granton."" "Well, I'm trying hard, Mark, but I'm not feeling anything." "We were young." "Bad things happened." "It's over." "Can we go home now?" " Two hours to the next train." " Oh, for fuck's sake." "Look, we're here as an act of memorial." "Nostalgia." "That's why you're here." "You're a tourist in your own youth." "Just 'cause you had a near-death experience, and now you're feeling all fuzzy and warm." "What other moments will you be revisiting?" "Here's a good one." "How about the time you sold Tommy his very first hit, leading him on to heroin addiction, HIV infection, and ultimately his death at the age of..." "What was it, 22, 23?" " Twenty-three." " Twenty-three." "How innocent was that?" "Aye, that's mine." "How's yours?" "Don't know what you're talking about." "She'd be a woman by now." "Maybe kids of her own." "But she never got that far, did she?" "Never got to lead her life." "Because her father, someone who should have been looking after her, protecting his own infant, was too busy filling his own veins with heroin to check that she was breathing properly." "How do you keep a lid on that one?" "Well, that's that, then." "Here we go." "Fuck's sake." " All right, doll." " Thanks." "Looking good, baby." "Not bad yourself, daddy-o." "Why, bring it over here." "Really?" "I'm not wearing any knickers." "For fuck's sake." "Well, tell you what..." "Just away for a piss." "Back in a moment." "We'll see what's happening, okay?" " All right, then." " Aye." "Deal." "Done." "Hi." "I can't take your call, so please leave a message." "Fuck." "What's all this, then?" "Planning a special event, are we, sir?" "Just give us the tablets, pal." "Remember not to exceed the stated dose." "Just give us the fucking tablets before I come through there and pound your fucking head in." "Aye, all right." "Fucking calm down." " Fuck's sake." " Cunt." "Prick." "Cunt!" "Fuck." "Fuck." "Rent Boy, where..." "Mark?" "Go!" "Go, go, go!" "Fuck!" "Go on, then, you fucking Cunt, you!" "Fuck." "Go!" "Would you fucking go?" "Fuck it!" "Fuck." "I didn't know." "Okay, okay." "I might've heard something." "I'm sorry I didn't mention it." "You might've heard something?" "All right, fuck it." "I knew." "I knew, and I could have served you up to him on a plate any time I wanted to." "I bet you were fucking looking forward to it, too, weren't you?" "Yeah, yeah, I was." "I was looking forward to it." "I ought to fucking kill you." "Fuck is this?" "Get in." "It's Mark and Simon, right?" "Do you know who I am?" "Good." "So you know that I own a couple of saunas in the north of Edinburgh." "In fact, you boys should know, I own all the saunas in Edinburgh." "So your venture was never gonna happen, was it?" "I couldn't have you on my doorstep in competition for my members of staff, for my clientele." "It was never gonna happen, Simon, was it?" " No, Mr. Doyle." " Right answer." "I wouldn't let it happen." "And it's not gonna happen, right?" "Thankfully for you two," "I've done some due diligence on you, and what I hear is you're a couple of losers." "Two absolute losers." " How's that sound, Simon?" " Yeah, yeah, that's probably right enough." "Aye. "Probably right enough." Right answer." "Take your clothes off." "All of them." "Fuck's sake." ""Probably right enough, Mr. Doyle."" "If you groveled a bit more, we might not be going home in the buff." "At least I have my dignity." "Is that what you're calling it?" "Are you ready?" " No." " Come on." "Hello, boys." "You just delete that right now." "I put it on Twitter." "No one will see." "Veronika, don't you understand?" "There's not gonna be a sauna." " Never." " I know that." "So we lost everything." " Did you not get the e-mail?" " No, I didn't get a fucking e-mail." "We got the money." " What?" " How much?" "The money." "What do you call it?" " Small Business Development?" " How much?" "£100,000." " No!" " Oh!" "ho hoh!" "Yeah!" "First, there's an opportunity." "And then, there is a betrayal." "Mark stole from me." "His best friend." "So this money is mine." "First, there is an opportunity." "And then, there is a betrayal." "Simon knew that Francis Begbie was out, and he chose to keep that a secret." "I owe him nothing." "We owe him nothing." " All right, Murphy?" " Franco." "Sit down." "Sit down." "Now..." "So where is he?" "Don't say, "Who?"" "Don't say, "I don't know."" "Just fucking tell me where he is." " Still a junkie, Murphy?" " No." "I'm clean now, Frank." "You-You-You Clean?" "Fucking joke." "What is all this shit anyway?" "It's just, like, stories and that." ""Stories"?" "What are you writing stories for?" "Who's gonna read shit written by a Cunt like you?" "Just thought maybe my grandchildren, or..." " You got grandchildren?" " No." "What you writing fucking stories for them for?" "They may not even like stories." "You thought of that?" "No." "That's a good point, Franco." ""The sweat was lashing off Sick Boy."" " Sick..." "Sick Boy?" "What, is it about him?" " It's about all of us, like." " All of you?" "About me?" " No, not about you." "Fucking better not be." ""Strolling Through the Meadows."" "Here, read it." " What?" " Read it." ""Strolling Through the Meadows." ""The pubs, like, dead busy." ""It's full o' loco-locals and festival types."" "'Cause the festival was going on, see, in the story." ""They're all having a little snort before heading off to the next show." ""Beg..." "I was definitely gonna cut this bit out, Frank." "Well, fucking read it." ""Begbie's pissed his jeans."" "I remember that night." "Read on." " What?" " Read on." "Read on." ""The boy, likes, just wouldn't hand over the wallet," ""even when Begbie pulled the knife, like." ""The last words I heard the dude say was," ""'You won't use that.'" ""Begbie went fucking crazy, got, like, that carried away with the bladework, you know." ""We nearly forgot the wallet, likes." ""Blood was flowing into the latrine, mixing with the piss."" "Blood." "Mixing with the piss." "It was an ugly sight, man." "Murphy." "You've got hidden talents, man." ""Then it happens." ""All I did was put a pint of Export in front of Begbie." ""He takes one fucking gulp out o' it." ""Then he throws the empty glass from his last pint" ""straight over the balcony in a casual backhand motion." ""The glass crashes down on this girl's head," ""which splits open as she falls to her knees." ""Begbie's on his feet and we're racing down the stairs, and he shouts..."" ""That lady got glassed!" ""And no Cunt leaves here till I find out what Cunt did it."" ""That lady got glassed." ""And no Cunt leaves here till I find out what Cunt did it."" "That is lovely." "What else have you got?" "What's this?" "What's this?" "London, London." ""Renton had never seen so much money." ""He stole the money." "Took it from his friends."" "What?" "No, that is just a story, that one." "That is just a little story." ""Renton felt no sympathy for Begbie." ""No." ""Renton's real guilt was for Spud." ""He loved Spud." ""Spud had never hurt anybody." ""If there was one person whom Renton would try to compensate," ""it was Spud."" ""Compensate"?" "I'm only gonna fucking ask you this once." "How much money did he leave you?" "£4,000." "Left it in a locker." "Well, you didn't fucking tell us that at the time." "I'm sorry, Franco." "Don't fucking move." "I did steal the money, but they shouldn't have been surprised." "I mean, we stole from all sorts of people." "Shops, businesses, neighbors, family." "Friends was just one more class of victim." "In the morning, when you were gone with my money," "I was furious, but also I thought," ""'Course he's taken it." ""Why wouldn't he?"" "Daniel?" "It's me." "I'm not here." " What do you mean, you're not here?" " Go!" "Veronika, you cannot be here." "Please." "It's not safe for you, kitten-cat." " You got to vamoose." " What happened?" "Tell Mark." "Tell Simon." "They need to run quick." "The Beggar is on the loose." "Please, Veronika, he'll be back at any minute." "Who will be back?" "Well, well, well." "Rescue." "This your bird, Murphy?" "Please, Franco, leave her alone." "She has nothing to do with this." "'Course she hasn't." "What would she be doing with an ugly Cunt like you?" "What's your name, doll?" "Veronika." "Veronika." "Well, that's lovely." "And how do you know Mr. Murphy here?" " Simon." " Simon?" "Good old Simon." "And what about Simon's very best friend?" "You know him and all?" "You got a phone?" " A phone?" " Aye." "A mobile phone." "You know the kind of thing." " Yes." " Give it." "But you have to let us go." "Both of us." " Another?" " No, I'm fine." "Where are you going?" "You shouldn't be out in this neck of the woods, kitten-cat." "I have a plan for us." "What?" ""We went for a piss in the old Leith Central Station." ""Me, Renton and Begbie." ""Place was empty, soon to be demolished."" "Some size o' station this was." "Used to be steam engines to all over from here." "Choo-fucking-choo!" ""An old drunkard, whom Begbie had been looking at," ""lurched up to us, wine bottle in his hand."" "What're you up to, lads, eh?" "Trainspotting?" "In Leith Central?" ""He says, laughing." ""I noticed Begbie seemed strangely subdued and uncomfortable."" "They fucking turn it on for you." "Fucking shitbag!" ""It was only then I realised" ""the old Wino was Begbie's father."" ""First, there is an opportunity." ""And then, there's a betrayal."" "And that's how it ends." "That's funny." "That's like everything I've been writing about." "Yes, Daniel." "But this one..." "Needs an ending too." "June." "Franco Junior." "Can I come in for a moment?" "There's something I have to do tonight, and then I'm going away." "One way or another, it'll be a long time before you see me again." "So I just thought I'd come by." "I just thought I'd come by and say good luck, son." "That's all." "Thanks, Dad." "See, it's difficult for me, 'cause..." "We never had any of that when I was a boy." "Not, like, hotel..." "Management." "Aye, hotel fucking management, all that shit." "I never had any of that." "Still..." "World changes, eh, June?" "Even if we don't." "So..." "Look after yourself, son." "The old Wino was my father." "This fool is yours." "You'll be a better man than either of us." "What the fuck?" "She's not here." "And seeing as we both are, don't imagine she'll turn up any time soon." "I'm gonna call her." "It's switched off." "So, what are we doing here, then?" "It's her way of saying goodbye, I suppose." "I loved that woman." "Mark!" "I'm so sorry!" "I've done a terrible thing!" " Fuck are you doing here?" " Lock the doors!" "Sorry about what?" "Lock it!" " Sorry for what?" " Get upstairs now!" "We have to get to fuck now!" " Mark!" "I've done a terrible thing!" " What?" " Franco!" " What?" "Veronika!" "Gail!" "Little Fergus." "Well, he's not so little any more." "You seen him recently?" "He's really shot up..." "What the fuck are you talking about, Murphy?" "Aye, carry on, Spud." "Finish your story." "'Cause we're all dying to hear it." "Well, it's like the lady says." "Betrayal." "No." "No, first, there is an opportunity, right?" "And then..." "Then there is a betrayal." "We've all heard that one before, eh, Mark?" " Aye, maybe." " Aye, fucking maybe." "Aye, well, like you said, 20 years has just flown by, eh?" "And here we all are." "Boys got lucky again." "Bit of money again." "With a..." "With a... with a fucking whore from Bulgaria." "So..." "How does it end?" " In a box, Franco." " That's right." "We're all in a box." "Just waiting for the lid to come down." " Frank, come on." " You knew." "Stringing me along, so you were." "Honestly, mate..." "Fucking deal with you later." "Now..." "Rent Boy." "You and me." "You know, I killed a man once." "A man who'd done nothing to me." "Cunt just looked at me the wrong way in a moment when I was thinking of you." "I've been thinking about you for 20 year." "When you robbed us." "Your best mates." "Never got my money back." "Never got my hope back." "I always promised myself that one day..." "Come on, Rent Boy." "Not like you to be so shy." "I remember my first day at primary school." "My very first day." "And the teacher, she said," ""Good morning, Mark." "You can sit here, next to Francis."" "Remember that, Franco?" "You were older." "You'd been kept back." "I remember that well enough." "Aye." "Had it all before us, didn't we?" "Had it all still to come." "And now here we are." "Aye." "You've done all right." "World's all right for smart Cunts, but what about me?" "What about fucking men like me?" "What do I get?" "All I can take with my bare hands." "All I can get with my fists." "Is that what I fucking get?" "Who's the fucking smart Cunt now?" "Fuck." "Aye." "Here we fucking are." "Come on." "Come on, Mark." "Come on." "Here." "Come on." "Franco!" ""So she puts it to Spud..."" "It will be safe if you leave with me." "No, I'm like one of the last indigenous guys around here." "I cannot go anywhere." ""He says, clinging to the hope" ""that he won't commit this crime against his friends." ""And she says..."" "I'll send you your share." "That doesn't work for me, Veronika." "I'll just blow it all on smack." "All right." "I'll send it to Gail, then." "And little Fergus." ""Gail, little Fergus." ""A chance to see them smile again." ""He takes the pen." ""And with his gift of forgery, so lately underused," ""he signs their names." ""Simon Williamson." "Mark Renton." ""He transfers the full £100,000" ""to the bank account of Veronika Kovach in Bulgaria."" "Thank you, Daniel." "Spud." "Most folks call me Spud." "Fuck." "He's doing what?" " Writing them down." " Really?" "That's what he told me." " Murphy?" " Apparently so." "So, who's gonna read 'em?" "Well, that's the problem." "Nobody." "I thought of a title."

"Guess how much money they made selling their crappy cds?" "How much?" "Over $200 bucks!" " $200?" " Really, are you sure?" "I'm starting to realize it's like the easiest job in the world." "You know?" "I mean we could do that!" "Become a peruvian flute band?" "Yeah!" "Why not?" "We get some instruments and some costumes and then make some crappy pan flute music cds on my computer." "Oh, my god!" "We're gonna make so much [Bleep] Money, you guys!" "Yeah!" "But where are we gonna get the money to buy costumes and instruments?" "Craig, dude, how you doing, bro?" "Fine."

"Come on in, craig, have a seat!" "Welcome." "What do you guys want?" "Craig, we have chosen you to join our peruvian flute band!" "Oh, all right, craig!" "You mean like those guys you see at all the tourist spots?" "There's a reason they're everywhere, craig." "Because they make bank." "We just need your money to buy some instruments and make some cds." "And we'll double your money in one afternoon, craig." "You guys never hang out with me, you never invite me to do stuff, but now you want me to be in a band with you because my grandma gave me $100." "Craig, don't be an asshole."

"Every major city is reporting zero peruvian flute bands." "We got 'em all." "All right!" "We did it!" "Thank god!" "Calm down, people." "We still have work to do."

"Well, think about it, idiot." "Where else would peruvian flute bands come from?" "The country is in the name!" "No, sir, we checked the entire map." "There isn't a country called "peruvian" anywhere." "Not peruvian, retards." "Peru!" "It's right here!" "Peru." "Now I want a plan in place to take peru out once and for all."

"I don't know what to make of it, sir." "It's like nothing I've ever seen before." "Clearly they are a peruvian flute band and yet they aren'T." "They play pan flute music like the others, but they talk and act like one of us." "I agree." "They are obviously some kind of hybrid." "A hybrid?" "How is that possible?" "Perhaps a peruvian flute band mated with one of our females." "Who knows?" "Well, however, they came to be, they're about the only piece of good luck we've had." "Sir?" "If they are the hybrid we're talking about, then they could be our way of taking out peru once and for all." "Do you guys know why nobody else at school likes hanging out with you?" "Because you're always doing stuff like this." "You're always coming up with some stupid idea to do something and then it backfires and then you end up in a foreign country or in outer space or something." "That's why nobody likes hanging out with you guys." "You're being extremely negative, craig." "All right, here's the deal." "Maybe you are on our side and maybe you aren't, but if you help us, we'll get you home." "Help you how?" "You are able to walk amongst the peruvian flute bands." "They see you as one of them."

"No, that never occurs to you." "Because you guys are jerks and you never learn from your mistakes." "And that's why everyone at school thinks you guys are assholes." "That's not true!" "Kids at school like us!" "Don't they?" "Yeah, dude, kids at school totally like us." "Craig's just being a dick because we're having a tough time right now." "I'm being a dick." "Yes!" "You guys took my birthday money, got me arrested and sent to miami with no way home except to take down the county of peru and I'm being a dick." "There's no talking to this guy." "All right, fine, craig." "When we get back home we'll get you your money back and we'll never talk to you again." "How's that?" "That would be great." "Thank you." "This is wrong." "This just doesn't make any sense." "Why would homeland security send us into peru?" "Because they were starting to take over the world?" "I don't know." "I just feel like there's got to be something else going on here." "Please, I don't know where else to turn." "The police haven't been any help."

"Go, go, go back the other way!" "Oh, god!" "Oh, god!" "Oh, god!" "Oh, god!" "I'm so startled." "Sir, we've got a bigger problem." "And what might that be?" "News reports are coming in from cities all over the world." "Word of massive destruction and death by what appear to be " "Guinea pigs?" "Yes, sir." "How did you know?" "You were so close to figuring it all out, Davis,did you know that?" "Sir?" "I really thought you had me in Miami.." "but you just couldn't quite put the pieces together" "You..." "You.. knew this was going to happen.." "Oh,this is only the beginning,Davis." "And I can't let you interfere." "Sorry my friend but I've worked too hard to make all this happen." "The pan flute bands are on their way to their deaths, and the guinea pigs are rising." "And the only person who could have stopped all this is on his his way to the middle of nowhere..."

"A Vulcan science vessel surveyed the seventh planet over 50 years ago." "The file states it's an M-Class world with a flourishing ecosystem." "No intelligent life." "Sounds promising." "They did report one distinctive feature which bears mentioning." "And that is?" "A species of flying reptile, some reportedly over 200 metres long." "They're also said to breathe fire." "There's been lingering questions over the accuracy of this report." "Can't wait to find out." "There's a ship." "It's on an intercept course." "I don't recognise the configuration." "Let's see it." "Doesn't look very friendly." "Tactical Alert." "Let's see what they want, Hoshi." "They're responding." "Captain Archer." "And you are?" "Harrad-Sar."

"And you're targeting mine." "lt seems we're at an impasse." "Not for long." "Instead of sitting here pointing guns at each other... why don't we deactivate our weapons together?" "Very well." "Now, what can we do for you?" "I have a proposal to make." "I'm listening." "I prefer to discuss business in person." "You're invited aboard my ship." "We've dealt with your people before." "The experience wasn't one I care to repeat." "If you can give me some idea what this is about...." "What I have to say could smooth the relations... between your Starfleet and the Orion Syndicate." "My hospitality is renowned, Captain." "I don't offer it to everyone." "And once I have been refused, I never offer it again." "The last Orions we ran into almost turned... nine of our crew members into slaves." "Let's at least ask him to come here." "I have a feeling he'd see it as an insult." "I can live with that." "Any chance to improve relations with the Syndicate..." "I'm willing to take that risk." "Anything to have one less hostile species out there." "Seven of the transfer conduits are back online." "The eighth is still giving us some trouble." "Did you run a phase diagnostic?" "lt came back negative." "Better work up a bypass." "Already underway." "Kelby." "Kelby." "We have a problem?" "I'm not sure what you mean, sir." "Look, the Captain asked me to stick around." "As soon as the repairs are done, I'm back on Columbia." "And it's no reflection on me that the Captain wants you to oversee the work." "That's right." "I was his chief engineer for four years." "Well, it doesn't look like he's ready to let you go." "I'd better get on it." "He thinks he's gonna lose his promotion." "Is there anything I can do to help?" "With Kelby?" "With the engine." "I could use a second pair of eyes on the field matrix." "The pattern's bothering me, and I can't figure out why." "I'll take a look at it." "Thanks." "Commander, have you been experiencing any unusual daydreams?" "Daydreams?" "Accompanied by intense auditory and visual sensations... that would involve me." "You're wondering if I've been having any daydreams about you?" "Essentially." "Well, let me think." "No, nothing comes to mind." "Forget I mentioned it." "Have you been having daydreams about me?" "It's not important." "You gonna tell me what this is about?" "No." "I am a privateer." "My allegiance is to myself alone." "I earn my living in various ways, buying, selling." "Plundering?" "When the situation calls for it." "Piracy is a risky business." "I prefer commerce." "This is from a planet in the Gorn Hegemony." "The Gorn?" "The less said about them the better." "However, they brew the finest Meridor in the five systems." "Delicious." "I'm pleased." "You have acquired something of a reputation, Captain." "Favourable, I hope." "Well, you're wanted in the Klingon Empire... the Orion Syndicate." "I don't know." "I would have imagined such a man... would have a more robust appetite." "With all those people after me, I need to stay quick on my feet." "Yes." "You said you had something important to discuss with us." "Well, it's poor custom to discuss business before entertainment." "If the food didn't arouse your hunger... this should." "What do you think?" "I can't think." "Captain?" "I'd have to agree with my tactical officer." "I think she likes you." "Her name is Navaar." "She's the most experienced of the three." "They're sisters." "I purchased them at a trading post you once visited." "Incredible, aren't they?" "They can make you forget most of your troubles." "Of course, creatures such as these come with troubles of their own." "But women are the same throughout the galaxy, aren't they?" "Now we can talk business." "He claims he's discovered a planet with large deposits of magnesite." "Enough to build 1,000 warp reactors." "And that's just what his scanners could detect." "He's offering to give us the coordinates." "Why would he divulge his information?" "He doesn't have the infrastructure to get the magnesite out of the ground." "So he wants Starfleet to construct mining facilities." "And he'll get a 10% share." "He's also promised to help establish a dialogue... between Starfleet and the Orion Syndicate." "Are you going to accept his offer?" "I already have." "I thought you were here seeking my advice." "Harrad-Sar insisted that I accept a gift... to celebrate the transaction." "Given the situation, I couldn't refuse." "We're on D-Deck now where most of the crew quarters are located." "Where does Captain Archer stay?" "On E. That's one deck below us." "How many levels are there?" "A total of seven." "Seven decks." "We've arranged these for you." "You need something to do?" "The other two rooms are right next door." "I'll show you in a moment." "Captain Archer has a very large ship." "It's roomy." "But everything's so functional." "There's no colour." "I hadn't really thought about it, to tell you the truth." "At least it's private." "What's your name?" "Lieutenant Reed." "Malcolm." "Pleased to meet you, Lieutenant Reed, Malcolm." "Malcolm's fine." "Well, someone will be by shortly to show you how everything works." "In the meantime, just try to make yourself at home." "Right." "This way, ladies." "Captain's Starlog, supplemental." "Harrad-Sar has turned over the coordinates of the planet he described." "We're en route to verify his claims." "I've been hearing some concerns from the crew." "Concerns?" "The Orion women." "Their presence is becoming disruptive." "You're telling me." "The crew isn't used to having Orions onboard." "It's more than that." "Our guests visited the Mess Hall this morning." "As a result, 12 crewmen reported late for their shifts." "I get the picture." "It's primarily their attire." "Or lack of it." "I'll see about assigning them some clothes." "It might also be a good idea if you have a word with them." "They're still under the impression they belong to you." "Unless a new policy has been instated..." "I believe Starfleet doesn't condone slavery." "I'll speak to them first chance I get." "Thank you." "Lieutenant." "Have you seen them yet?" "I ran into one of them in the corridor." "They're really...." "Yeah, I know." "I know." "What are you trying to do?" "Get them out of my head!" "The pain helps." "You should try it." "Yeah, okay." "When I was on my parents' ship, we picked up some Deltans once." "Their ship was having engine trouble." "I don't know that species." "The females are unbelievably attractive." "Very open about...." "I was 15." "I couldn't think straight." "I could barely breathe." "Only thing that got me through it was weight-training with my dad." "He said if I was exhausted, idle hands and all that." "Well, did it help?" "Helped my biceps." "I'd go heavier." "What are you doing here?" "I wanted to thank you." "You were very kind this morning, helping me find the Mess Hall." "It was no problem." "Look, I...." "Wow." "Is that the engine?" "It's the warp reactor." "You can feel the power." "You promised you'd show me Engineering." "I know." "Harrad-Sar never let us leave our rooms." "I've never seen anything like this place." "I could show you around." "lf it won't get you into trouble." "Come on." "What've you got for a headache?" "That depends on what's causing it." "How long have you been experiencing this?" "A few hours." "What is it?" "Ensign Keely was here with a headache several minutes ago." "Is she all right?" "Perfectly." "Just as you are." "It's probably just stress." "Plenty of that going around." "Or it could be our new passengers." "The Orion females?" "Why should they give you a headache?" "I'm just not used to seeing guys trip over themselves like that." "Just a little healthy sexual energy." "Helps keep the blood pumping." "If you ask me, it's pumping a little too hard." "I'm surprised at you, Ensign." "Why?" "You never struck me as being prone to jealousy." "This should do very nicely." "Phlox!" "It's all right." "Well, I must be nearing a sleep cycle." "I thought you just had one." "You're right, I did." "A week ago." "It's a good bet the problem's right there." "Take it apart." "The injectors feed into the dilithium chamber." "That's where the matter and antimatter mix." "That's right." "The crystals let you control the reaction." "That's right." "Lieutenant." "Talk to you a second?" "What's going on?" "Sir?" "You're supposed to be recalibrating the EPS taps, not giving a tour." "She's only been here a couple of minutes." "Not to mention the fact that she doesn't have clearance." "You should have checked with me first." "Well, I guess I can't do anything right." "Just ask her to leave." "No, sir." "I'm not through talking to her." "That was an order." "And I'm refusing." "What the hell's the matter with you?" "You've been on my case since the second you got back." "That's what the hell's the matter with me." "And I'm telling you, it stops here." "Kelby, you're walking a fine line." "So are you, Commander." "You're confined to quarters." "And what if I don't want to go?" "It's either your quarters or the Brig." "Get out of here, now." "Come in." "I was wondering when you were going to come and see me." "After all, I've been your property for two days." "Navaar... you and your sisters don't belong to me, or anyone else." "I don't understand." "On my world, slavery's been illegal for hundreds of years." "Are you saying that you don't want us?" "I'm saying that you're here as our guests... not our property." "I've been a slave my entire life... on different worlds, for different owners." "What's going to happen to me?" "You're free to start a new life." "In the meantime, I've asked my protocol officer, Hoshi Sato... to brief you on ship's operations." "There are certain areas that are reserved for Starfleet personnel." "I know what happened in Engineering." "I've already spoken to D'Nesh." "I'm sorry." "There's no reason to apologise." "It's a big adjustment for the three of you." "May I ask you something?" "Do you find me attractive?" "I'd be lying if I said no." "I've known so few honest men." "And even though you don't wish to own me..." "I still wish to please you." "If I choose to do this... would that violate your ship's protocol?" "Not necessarily." "Bridge to Captain Archer." "Bridge to Captain Archer." "Archer here." "We're coming up on the planet." "I'll be right there." "I recommend we go to T actical Alert, sir." "We can't be certain this isn't some kind of a trap." "Go ahead." "We're already picking up large deposits of magnesite." "Harrad-Sar was telling the truth?" "lt would seem so." "Keep scanning." "I want to know how much is down there." "Are you feeling all right?" "I'm fine." "A power reading." "Not on the surface, in the upper atmosphere." "A ship?" "Uncertain." "Try hailing them." "The cloud layer is highly ionised." "It's obscuring our scanners." "Get us closer, within 10 kilometres." "They're not responding." "There it is." "It's an unknown configuration." "They're locking weapons." "Extremely low yield." "Barely scratched us." "It's equipped with numerous sensors, most likely a science vessel." "Its presence here could simply be a coincidence." "They're firing again." "No damage." "They could shoot at us all day." "Phase-cannons." "Sir?" "A phase-cannon hit will destroy them." "Which means they won't be shooting at us anymore." "If we simply withdraw, they'll most likely cease their attack and move on." "And maybe they won't." "Target them." "Lieutenant." "Captain." "Lock phase-cannons!" "No." "Sir, they're moving off." "I have just as much experience." "I'm smarter, younger...." "You're better than him." "We're the only ones who think that." "Tucker's going to take back his position?" "He denies it, but I know he's planning on staying." "lt doesn't seem fair." "lt isn't." "Let's not talk about it anymore." "What?" "I'm used to being with men who take what they want." "What are you talking about?" "You can't let him treat you like this." "He's my superior officer." "Where are you going?" "I thought you were different." "Stay." "Wait, don't leave." "What would you do to keep me forever?" "Forever?" "What would you do?" "Anything." "Anything you want." "Kelby!" "What the hell are you doing?" "Blow the dampeners!" "Move!" "He blew out every junction in the EPS system." "If we hadn't gotten to him, we might not have a ship under our feet." "When can we get underway?" "I'm not sure we can get underway." "He did a pretty thorough job." "Kelby." "I didn't do anything!" "Tell me what happened." "Whatever he told you, it's a lie!" "Three other people were there, they all saw you." "Tell me why you did this." "He's trying to get rid of me." "Don't listen to him!" "Kelby." "Captain, his adrenaline levels... are dangerously high." "I need to administer a sedative." "Not till I get some answers first." "In his current state he can't give you coherent answers." "I just want to go back to Engineering." "All right." "I just want to go back to Engineering!" "Be quiet!" "What's wrong with him?" "It's the same thing that's affecting everyone on this ship." "It's a highly potent pheromone." "When exposed to human males, it accelerates the metabolism... causing aggression and ultimately a form of delusion." "The Orions?" "Women aboard the ship have also been affected." "I've received an increasing number of complaints... about headaches and listlessness." "I suspect the pheromone acts... as a defence mechanism against competition." "You okay?" "It's impacted my sleep cycle." "I'm having to rely on stimulants to stay awake." "Doesn't seem to be affecting you." "I've scanned a good number of the crew." "So far, the only people who haven't been affected are T'Pol..." "and Commander Tucker." "Why me?" "I would have to run some more tests." "But for the rest of us, the effect seems to be cumulative." "The longer we're exposed, the more pronounced... the results are." "So this is what you meant when you said we were free to start new lives?" "We found this in your quarters." "It seems we have no privacy, either." "It's a communication device." "You've been in contact with Harrad-Sar as recently as two hours ago." "And if I have?" "You were sent here to disable my ship." "That was his plan from the start, wasn't it?" "Harrad-Sar contacted me to see if we'd been treated well." "Dr. Phlox believes that... prolonged exposure to your pheromones makes men delusional... and extremely vulnerable to suggestion." "That's how you convinced Kelby to sabotage our engines." "Your crewman acted alone." "I had nothing to do with it." "It seems the only delusion here is your own." "Damn it!" "It's time to start telling me the truth!" "I'm worried about you, Captain." "You don't seem well." "I'm not the one you should be worried about." "I can see you're not very experienced at making threats." "I'm a lot better at carrying them out." "We were a gift, nothing more." "A true commander would know how to appreciate such a gesture." "Tell me." "When's he going to attack us?" "No one is coming to attack your ship." "Please release us." "Captain." "I'm obviously not the only woman with power over you." "Get down to Engineering." "Do what you can to help Trip." "It's better if I stay on the Bridge." "I don't need you to look after me." "You're not immune to these pheromones." "Your judgment is impaired." "I can handle it." "We need to get the engines back online." "I don't want to be a sitting duck when Harrad-Sar gets here." "You have your orders." "The Captain asked me to offer my assistance." "Great." "You can run through these diagnostics." "See if you can find anything that isn't fried." "Do you really think they're coming after us?" "It's likely." "The transmissions sent by the Orion females... suggest that Harrad-Sar's ship is getting closer." "You know, I keep thinking back to our first mission when we met the Suliban." "I was so damn naive." "I actually thought it was the last time we'd have to fight someone." "I said leave it alone!" "Get your hands off of me!" "Knock it off!" "That's an order!" "Start up again, you'll both end up in the Brig!" "Understand?" "Now go help Masarro with the injectors." "Now!" "Get back to work." "Get back to work." "That's the third one in the last hour." "There have been altercations throughout the ship." "The Captain's been affected." "I'm concerned about him." "The thing I can't figure out is why I'm immune." "That might have something to do with me." "You?" "There's a long-held belief that when a Vulcan mates... there's a shared psychic bond." "We didn't "mate."" "Okay, what do you mean by psychic bond?" "It's difficult to explain." "Feelings, thoughts, even images can be shared." "Those daydreams." "What?" "When I said before that I wasn't having any daydreams about you... it wasn't actually true." "So if we're bonded... what does this have to do with me not being affected by the Orions?" "I'm immune to the pheromones because of my Vulcan physiology." "And you're making me immune?" "Apparently." "I don't know whether to be relieved or really worried." "Tactical Alert." "Distance." "400 kilometres." "He's hailing us." "Put him up." "Can I be of help, Captain?" "Do you need a tow?" "We still have weapons." "You're not going to get this ship without one hell of a fight." "I'd rather I didn't have to kill you, but if that's what it takes." "The Syndicate wants your head, Captain." "And they don't really care whether or not it's attached to your body." "He's trying to knock out our weapons!" "Then take out his." "Forward phase-cannons are down." "Protect our aft cannons." "He's moving too fast." "Archer to Engineering." "Trip!" "Can we get more power to the thrusters?" "I'll see what I can do!" "We just lost aft cannons." "Try to divert some of the power from the grav-plating." "We're going to be a little lighter on our feet!" "What the hell, I've been meaning to lose a few pounds." "Reducing gravity plating to 90%." "Thrusters are back to full." "Hard to starboard." "We're still too slow!" "Torpedoes!" "That last hit just took them out." "He's powering down his weapons." "He's coming about." "Thrusters." "Full astern!" "It's not enough!" "He's hailing." "Relax, Captain." "Enjoy the ride." "We're not going anywhere." "I'm afraid you have an appointment with a pair of Orion marauders." "I don't intend to keep them waiting." "Release my ship!" "I can see you're upset, and I sympathise... but it's truly out of my hands." "We're both slaves to the situation." "They control you?" "You finally realise that." "Yes, Captain, you've been operating under a misconception." "It is the men who are the slaves, not the women." "You see what I'm seeing?" "His grappler's directly above our main deflector reader." "Get up to the Bridge." "I'll be right behind you." "The deflector?" "We can use it to send a positron burst through the towing cable." "If we're lucky, it'll trigger an energy cascade." "And disable his power systems." "Do it." "T'Pol to Engineering." "I've almost got it." "You'll have to reroute the main EPS conduit." "Understood." "Understood." "Captain." "Captain." "Decon Chamber, come in." "There's no one there." "Decon Chamber, come in." "There's no one there." "What did you do to my men?" "We asked them to leave... after they released us." "They were very accommodating." "Get off my Bridge." "Is that what you really want?" "Because if it is, I'll gladly do as you say." "I only want to make you happy." "I didn't think you wanted me to go." "Captain." "She's jealous." "She'll try anything to keep us apart, she'll even destroy your ship." "Her presence is affecting your judgment." "Arrest her." "Don't listen!" "Do it." "Captain!" "Lieutenant Reed." "Yes?" "Take T'Pol to the Brig." "You heard your captain." "Aye, sir." "Stop him." "We're ready." "His engines are down." "Weapons, as well." "It worked." "Commander Tucker..." "I'm impressed." "I'm beginning to see who's the true master of this vessel." "Save it." "Captain Archer runs this ship." "You're sweet-talking the wrong guy." "Let's go." "Captain's Starlog, supplemental." "The Orion women have been returned to Harrad-Sar... who's headed home at very low impulse." "Okay." "The dizziness should fade in a couple of hours." "Glad to hear that." "At least the pheromones are wearing off." "I haven't thought about the Orions for what, a whole 10 minutes." "The entire crew's been bumping into walls, it's like... someone spiked the water supply." "The aftereffects will be around for at least a few days." "Well done." "Thank you, Captain." "You'll be glad to know my log won't mention your firing on a fellow officer." "I appreciate that." "A court martial would hardly be a fitting ending to this incident." "At least we've learned something about the Orions." "Yeah, the women are in charge." "It proves that... even the most disagreeable species have some positive attributes." "Was that my imagination?" "I don't think so." "It almost sounded like you were making a joke." "At least, trying to make one." "I assure you, if I ever decide to make a joke, you'll know about it." "There it is again." "T'Pol, if I didn't know better..." "I'd think you were picking up some of Trip's bad habits." "I guess we proved it again." "Proved what?" "That you and I make a hell of a team." "We do seem to work well together." "Even more, now that we're in each other's heads." "You're returning to Columbia?" "I imagine Captain Hernandez... is getting pretty antsy to have her chief engineer back." "There are still numerous repairs to be carried out here." "I think Kelby can handle them." "He'd been observing my work pretty carefully... when he wasn't trying to blow up the ship." "Kelby is a fine engineer, but he lacks experience." "Why don't you just say it?" "Say what?" "That you want me to come back." "I believe I did." "I think your presence here would be extremely beneficial to our operations." "No." "That you want me back." "I don't know what you mean." "My mistake." "See you around." "Wait." "Trip." "I want you to come back." "Then I'll think about it." "Trip!" "Three days ago..." "I told Captain Hernandez I wanted a transfer back to Enterprise." "Three days ago?" "I realised this is where I was meant to be... and that this thing between us... isn't that big of a deal." "Agreed." "Guess we got a lot of work to do."

"So cigarettes and gas is $79.70." "Crap." "There's an ATM right outside." "Yeah, I don't have a card." "Well, you can write a personal cheque with ID." "Kind of in between banks right now." "You think I could just come back later?" "I'm totally good for it." "I'd come back, I swear." "If it were me, I'd be totally, you know, "No problem."" "But my dad is this ginormous hard-ass." "He was in Fallujah for a year." "And he always checks the receipts." "I mean, like, always." "I gotta call him." "I'm sorry." "Wait, wait, wait." "Hold on a second." "Maybe we could trade." "Ever try it?" "I mean, I smoke pot a lot sometimes." "I party." "But..." " But that stuff's really addictive, right?" " Not really." "It's just a media thing." "You know?" "What's it like?" "It's awesome." "Everything's maximum interesting." "You get these really cold and sharp-like action dagger feelings." "It's awesome." "Come on." "What do you say?" "Have a nice day." "So how does it feel?" "Does it hurt?" "Yeah, it's tight." " Yeah, but is it painful?" " It's hard to breathe." "Well, you need your breathing." "Although let's not lose sight of the fact that you were the victim of a terrible accident, Antonio so some discomfort is to be... expected." "Let's go with that one." "A cashier's cheque, por fav or." "Oh, and spread the word." "I'm building a class-action, flight 515." "Victims' families would be great." "I'll take anyone on the ground who suffered emotionally." "Anxiety, sleeplessness." "You get the picture." "Trouble?" "Ted Benek e?" "You cannot be serious." " That guy is a jok e." " You know what?" "You called my bluff." "What does that even mean?" "You dared me to tell the police and I couldn't do it, so you win." "If you want to stay in this house, fine, but we are not married anymore." "I told you that I was done cooking meth, Skyler." " I promised you that." " So what?" "You know what?" "At least I didn't run off to go..." "Jesus!" "I mean, everything that I did, I did for this family." " Just k eep telling yourself that." " What is that supposed to mean?" "You don't lik e it, then leave." " And tak e your drug money with you." " That's what you want." " Jesus." " Garbage disposal." "You think this will get me to move out?" "You can screw Ted." "You can screw the butcher, the mailman." " God, Walt." " Whoever you want." "Screw them all." "I'm not going anywhere." "Suit yourself." "Is this a good or bad thing?" "Suit myself." "You want me to suit myself?" "I'll suit myself to his face!" "It's a bad thing." "Hello." "Walter White to see Ted Beneke." "I'm sorry." "Mr. Beneke's on a conference call." "Okay." "I will wait." "It could be a while." "I have all the time in the world." "Okay." " Here we go." "Okay." " Excuse me." " Mr. Beneke's not available." " Ted?" "Come on." "Sir, excuse me." "Excuse me." "Ted, I can see you." "I can see you standing right there in your office." "Now, come on." "Open the door." "Come on, let's talk." "I just want to talk." "That's all." "Come on, let's be men about this." "Okay?" "How about that?" "Hey, Walt." "I'm kind of in the middle of something now." "Oh, yes, you are." "So open the door." "You're damn right." "You're right in the middle." "Just open the door and let's talk about it, okay?" "Open the door, Ted, right now." "You don't want to be a man about it?" "Plan B. How do you like that?" "Plan B." "We have a situation." "Walt." "Walt." "Walt." "What are you doing?" "I'm talking with Ted." "Next time, you'll open the door." " Freeze!" "Come on." " Oh, damn it." "No, I'm just here to talk." " I just want to talk to him." " Outside." "Let's go." "God." "Can I just talk?" "I just want to talk to him." " Calm down." " I'm just..." "Okay, all right." "All right, all right, all right." "I'm calm." "I'm calm." "Asshole." "What do you want?" "What do you want?" "Hey!" "Hey, come on." "What the hell is wrong with you?" "You act like you're the first guy this happened to." "I caught my second wife screwing my stepdad, okay?" "It's a cruel world, Walt." "Grow up." " I just wanted to talk to him." " Yeah, well, now I'm talking to you." "Consider this an inte... ntion." "You could have been arrested back there." "You understand." "Speaking as your lawyer, I'm always looking for billable hours." "But speaking as your business associate I'm strongly advising that you get your shit together." "Just cool it with this Beneke guy, at least for now." "Okay?" "Let's talk shop, because I think this is a great opportunity to channel some of that negative energy into something positive." " How did you know?" " Sorry?" "About Skyler." "About where to find me just now." "How did you know?" "That's just my meticulousness." "Don't bog down in detail, Walt." " The lesson here should be..." " Did you bug my house?" "Yeah, but I didn't know it was your house, did I?" "You'd moved out." "Besides, you basically told me to." " I told you to?" " You strongly hinted that I should." "You were worried your wife might say something to the police." "What?" "No, no, that's not true." "When the hell did I say that?" "Let's not get lost in the who, what and whens." "The point is we did our due diligence and she didn't talk." "She kept quiet." "She stood by you, Walt which, if you ask me, is the ironical silver lining here." "I mean, on the one hand sure, she snuck off the reservation to get some dirty, damp and deep." "On the other hand..." "Off me." "You're fired!" " You're done!" " Good!" ""Oh, boohoo, I won't cook meth anymore"." "You're a crybaby." "Who needs you?" "I'm unplugging the website, so no more money laundering." "How do you like that?" "I want those bugs out of my house today." "I want them out now!" "You just bought a $300 suit, psycho!" "Go." "Great, drilled right into the stucco." "A little bit of putty, you'll be fine." "Just make sure you get all of those things." "A, these things cost $800 apiece." "B, you're not that interesting." "So yeah, I'll get all of them, Walter." "Great line of work, by the way." "Real upstanding field." "Yeah, well I enjoy it." "You're free to leave now." "Anytime." "You know, Walter sometimes it doesn't hurt to have someone watching your back." "Mr. White?" "Hi." "What's up?" "I can't begin to understand what you're going through, Walt with all of your health concerns and the stresses you've been under." "But still, as educators there are certain responsibilities we need to be meeting here to the school and to the students themselves." "Of course." "Is this a wheaten terrier?" "Norfolk." "Norfolk?" "That's surprising." "Walt, could you come back over here and have a seat, please?" "Sure." "You've been absent a lot recently." "And when you are here at school, there have been some behavioural questions." "And frankly I'm concerned." "Thank you." "Are you feeling okay?" "Do you think maybe I should call Skyler?" "No." "Let's just keep this..." "What...?" "Hey!" "Walt, what's wrong with you?" "You know, look, you're the one always talking about D.C., okay?" "This is how you get there." "You answer the bell." "You pay your dues." "Besides, you know, it's a big deal to get picked for this." "El Paso's like the Super Bowl." "I could get killed crossing the street, okay?" "Whatever." "You know, I want to go." "What about last time?" "What about last time?" "Schrader." "Hey, sheriff." "Yeah." "Blue, huh?" "Yeah, yeah." "Thing is..." "Thing is I'm supposed to be getting on a plane right now." "The stuff this guy had was blue." "You sure about that?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I want to talk to him." "Taxi." " Hi." " Man, I'm sorry." "I needed to talk to you, but you weren't at your apartment." "No, I moved back home." "That's good, right?" "Yeah." " Yo, did you just get fired?" " No." "No, no, no." "It's more like a sabbatical." "Indefinite." "Yeah." "So, what's up?" "Should we go somewhere?" "No, this is fine." "So I want an intro to your guy." "What guy?" "Your guy." "Your distribution guy." "The guy Saul hooked you up with." "No, no, no." "Come on, Jesse." " I thought about it and I want to." " God." "It's the one thing I'm good at." "No, that is just not true." "You're good at a lot of things, son." "Like what?" "What about your sobriety?" "I told you, I'm not using." "Ever." "I just want back into the business." "Well, I don't." "I'm sorry." "I know, and that's cool." "I'm not asking you to cook." "What's this?" "In the... end, I just went with two reflux condensers." "I didn't want to lose track of my pH levels." "But I did everything else just like you taught me." "Super careful in my amounts and watched the numbers every step of the way." "So, what do you think?" "It's good, right?" "What in the hell is this?" " What?" " What?" "This." "This." "This is my product." "This is my formula." "This is mine." "It's our product, but yeah, I was gonna cut you in." "Oh, you were gonna cut me in?" "No, no, no." "I cut you in." "What the hell is your problem?" "All I'm asking is for you to set a meet." " Absolutely not." " Why?" "Because I am not gonna lend my name to an inferior product." "I mean, look at the diameters here." "What did you use for reduction?" "Don't tell me." "Platinum dioxide, right?" "No." "Mercury-aluminium amalgam." "The dioxide's too hard to keep wet." "All right, well, you must've done it wrong, then." "Your colour is all cloudy, so you were struggling with distillation too." "Now, this is very shoddy work, Pinkman." "I'm actually embarrassed for you." "What?" "No way." "I gave out samples and everyone said it was the bomb." "Oh, they said it was the bomb." "And who were they, I wonder?" "A bunch of meth heads?" " Yeah." " Yeah." " They should know, right?" " Yeah, well, sorry." " I can't help you." " Fine, ass-wad." " I'll contact the guy myself." " Oh, yeah?" "Well, good luck." "Because my guy is a pro and he doesn't deal with junkies." " You know what?" "Eat me." " Anytime, loser." "Hey, hey, hey!" "Wait." "Hey!" "I can't believe it's only 4:00." "This day is dragging." "Okay." "I wish I could stay." "So stay." "What's stopping you?" "What, like... everything, you mean?" "How about my lunatic husband refusing to leave the house?" "So move in here." "And then my son hating me even more." "That'll pass." "I went through that with the girls." "They adapt." "And now everyone at work thinks I'm an evil ladder-climbing whore." "They're all fired, effective immediately." "What else?" "Oh, aren't you the answer man?" "Where did it...?" "Where did it go wrong, exactly, with you and Walt?" "I mean, I always saw him as kind of mild-mannered." "Something, I don't know, change when he got sick or...?" "I don't know what changed, Ted." "And I just don't feel really comfortable talking about it." "Sorry." "Just asking out of self-interest." "Gotta make sure I don't make the same mistake." "I would be amazed." "Just let me see if I'm following you here, Russell." "You got this stuff from some guy at Gasparza's who was wearing tan pants and who you're 80 percent sure had a moustache." "That's it, right?" "That's your brain working at maximum capacity?" "Russell." "Everything all right in there?" "Mel." "The dude's name was Mel." "Well, there you go." "See?" "You served an actual earthly function." "I can't believe I remembered that." "Mel who?" "Does he have a last name?" "Yeah, Mel." "Wait." "Was it Mel or Mark?" "It was definitely an M name." "Oh, man, I'm losing it." "Wait, wait." "Yeah." "It's gone." "It's gone." " It was an M name though." " Yeah." "I remember the... sound." "All right, well, we'll go with the... sound." " Thanks a lot." "Appreciate it." " Yeah." "He definitely had tan pants." "Remind me to get a vasectomy." "Okay, it's after 9, so this bar that Girl George is at probably wall-to-wall dirtbags by now." "Let's go have a little looky-loo, see if we can't find this M-named clown." "What?" "It's a lead." " Lead to what?" " To Heisenberg." "I told you it was only a matter of time before this guy booted up again." "Here we go, my friend." "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful, Gomey." "Just apologise and buy me a beer." "Man, you're reaching." "This stuff could be a knockoff or left over from an older cook." "How do you know Heisenberg's gearing up again?" "How do I know?" "Because I know." "I don't get it." "This is the reason why you're blowing off the task force?" "Chase down teeners?" "I'm getting tired of all the second-guessing." "If you're not sufficiently stimulated by this investigation do us both a favour and ask for a transfer." "What is up with you lately?" "Starting bar fights, turning down El Paso and now this bullshit?" "Do you need to talk to someone or what?" "Talk to someone?" "Talk to who?" "I'm not trying to step on your toes, bro." "Okay?" "I'm just worried about you." "That's all." "Appreciate that, bro." "Now take your hand off my shoulder." "Yeah, yeah, the one that was on TV." "Did any little piece fall on your property?" "I'm not looking for an entire wing here, Mr. Linkas." "It could be a nut or a bolt." "It could be a bag of peanuts just so long as it caused you pain and suffering." "Oh, no, no, no." "Closed." "Calling you back." "You had your chance." "I told you to get him cooking again." "You blew it off and now it's too late." "The guy's gone mass maniac on us!" "All I wanted was to show you two your potential." "And what do I get in return?" "A bone contusion." "You wanna see the scar?" "I wish you two had..." "Hi, there." " How in the hell did you get Walt to...?" " I made it." "You know the guy who knows the guy, right?" "Well, good news is for a stage-three cancer, the guy's doing well physically." "Mentally, the guy's a disaster." "He's gone off the rails over this thing with his wife." "My opinion, he's not coming back." "Not on his own." "Your friends were at his place again, by the way." "They drew something on the street outside his house." " The scythe." " Animals." " Does the lawyer know?" " Should he?" "No." "If you want this guy to produce again, why not just tell him?" "You stand between him and an axe in the head." "I don't believe fear to be an effective motivator." "I want investment." "For now, I'm simply interested in time frame." "He will live for the foreseeable future, yes?" "Foreseeable." "Couple years at least, barring acts of God and men with axes." "From the lawyer, I'm supposed to let you know the Pinkman kid is looking to sell." " I don't work with junkies." " That's what I thought you'd say." "Probably for the best." "What I hear, he and Walter are splitsville." "Really?" "That's what Goodman says." "Cats and dogs." "Do the deal." "You have one unheard message." "Agent Schrader, you need to be calling me back ASAP." "I've got Texas breathing down my neck and I'm not about..." "No, I haven't see Matt since my dad fired him, like, a while ago." "Where can I find him, you think?" " No idea." "Haven't seen him." " I know." "You said that a few times." "Yeah, because I haven't seen him." "I don't know what else to say." " What's your name, darling?" " Cara." "Where did this come from, Cara?" "I don't know." "What is it?" "Drugs?" "Look, I'm just gonna come right out and say it." "You're a bad liar, Cara." "Don't get me wrong." "Not the worst I've... ever seen." "Once had a guy try to explain the dope balloon up his butt on bad Thai food." "Still, you're not a very good liar." " I honestly don't know..." " Stop." "You look like a good kid." "I'm not here to get you in trouble." "But you need to tell me where this came from right now!" "I never do stuff like this." "I swear to God." "I tried it and I hated it, so I just gave it to Matt." " Okay, and who gave it to you?" " Some guy." "He came in a couple days ago and wanted to trade it for gas." "Some guy?" "What's his name?" "Okay, what...?" "What did he look like?" "I don't know." "He looked pretty normal." "You know, white." "I think his hair was lightish brown." "He had really blue... eyes." "They were really, really blue." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, dreamy." "Okay, what else?" "Piercings, jewellery, distinctive articles of clothing." "Come on." "Come on." "Listen to me." "It's real important that I find the person that had these drugs." "So if you can remember anything else..." "Come on, think." "Come on, now." "Come on." "He drove an RV." "Okay, good, good." "What can you remember?" "What kind of RV?" "What colour?" "Did you spot a license plate?" "I don't know the kinds and I didn't see the license." "But the colour was, I think, white, brownish colour." "I'm sorry." "I know I'm not helping you but, please, don't tell my dad." "Cara." "Please, tell me that that camera works." "Damn it." "Bingo." "These... eggs are good, Mom." "Thanks." "Hey, you know what's weird?" "Dad's website." "It's been three days since the last donation." "Yeah, well, people lose interest." "So how long are you off for?" "A few weeks." "I'll play it by ear." "I probably pushed it, you know, going back to work too soon." "Think I can get a ride today?" "Louis has a doctor's appointment." "Yeah." "Hey, so, Dad can babysit now, right?" "You won't have to take Holly to work every day." "Sometime, maybe." "Yeah, we'll see." "What's up?" "I think you'll seriously enjoy, yo." "Wait." "No, no." "No way." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey." "What the hell?" "This is only half." "That's right." "It's your half." "Yo, where's the other half, bitch?" "I mean, the whole thing was crazy." "Poor bastard." "I felt sorry for him." "I think he actually thought we were the cable guys, you know." "Anyway, sorry about those missed calls, chief." "I'm changing providers." "It won't happen again." "Are you going to El Paso, Hank?" "Hell, yes." "With pointy boots and bells on." "Got this break in the Heisenberg case." "The blue meth, you mean?" "The teenth?" "Yeah, well, that teenth got things rolling." "I traced it to a gas station in Cibola." "That's where I got these." "The station's closed-circuit was down..." "Surprise, surprise." " But I was able to pull some of these snapshots off an ATM security camera." "We always thought these guys might be camper-cooking." "First off, your typical Class C motor home is gonna grunt at least 5000 pounds of interior fixtures." "Appliances, furniture, built-ins, 5000 pounds at least, okay?" "See how high that suspension's riding?" "No way, no how, this thing's carrying that kind of weight." "This thing has been cleared out and stripped down to its tight-and-curlies." "For what?" "Blood bank?" "Maybe a bookmobile?" "There's no clear view of the plates." "Yeah, well, you can only get so lucky, right?" "But there's no front plate." "Tells me it's likely New Mexico registration." "I check with DMV." "There are only 29 of these... early-'80s Bounders registered in the state." " Only 29?" " Yeah." "So I gotta go, you know, knock on some doors." "They need you in El Paso, Hank." "You bet." "I'm just gonna wrap up this Heisenberg thing first." " You're refusing the assignment." " I'm not." "I'll go." "It's just I need some more time." "You're not hearing me, Agent Schrader." "You're out of time." "Are you going to El Paso now, tonight?" "It's a simple yes or no." "No." "I can't." "But that's only because I'm really close to something big here." "Better get to it, then." "This is KEC A 480, Albuquerque's news radio." "KEC A news time, 10:13." "Our top story this hour, Donald Margolis the air-traffic controller criticised for his role in the recent air disaster in which 167 persons died was rushed to an area hospital early this morning apparently the victim of a self-inflicted gunshot wound." "Police won't say whether or not..." "Your half." "Okay, okay."

"You're not a boy any more." "This time, it's going to be prison." "See, when you go," "I'm still going to be here." ""You tell me I'm best at doing my nine years"" "and forget Mr Muncie." "I have to tell you that my mind is made up." ""One way or another, Mr Muncie is going to pay."" "He had a knife." "He told me if I screamed, he'd cut my throat." "Is there something you want to say to me, son?" "You think I did it, don't you?" "Peter Manuel is a very real threat to the women of this community." "It's not bloody enough for you to deprive our Peter of his liberty for nine years for crimes he did nae do." "Your father said you were in all night." "I'm his son, he's looking out for me." "Too many man-hours on this Manuel thing." "Yeah, I'm not sure Mary McLauchlan would see it that way, sir." "Well, she's not your boss." "Manuel's put in a request to conduct his own defence." "The witness, by her own admission, spent over three hours, half the night, with me." "He's lying!" "The law let you down badly today." "But I want you to know that I will not rest until Peter Manuel's behind bars." "Private Anne Kneilands." "You know what, Private Kneilands?" "What?" "I think 1956 is going to be a good year." "I'll get it." "Mr Manuel." "He's not in." "It's you that I wanted to talk to, sir." "What?" "I hear Peter's going to be on trial in a couple of weeks." "Him and a lad named Joseph Brannan... for some attempted burglary over in Blantyre." "So?" "What of it?" "It always seemed to me that Peter's at his most... reckless when he's out on bail." "Most prone to doing something that he may regret." "You've got some bloody nerve." "Coming on like you care when it's you that's trying to put Peter in the frame." "Piss off!" "Get your hand off my door." "Do you really want another Anne Kneilands on your conscience?" "She's not on my conscience, Muncie, because Peter was here that night." "Superintendent Leish is satisfied with that, and he's in charge now, isn't he?" "Superintendent Leish had no choice but to be satisfied because you provided Peter with an alibi." "And Professor Alison, who was the pathologist on the Anne Kneilands case, he told me, in all his years, he'd never seen a body with more brutal injuries." "There was a hole on top of her head that you could put a fist in." "There was blood and brain matter found over 15 feet from where she lay." "She was so badly beaten that her hands and her arms, which she'd held up to try to defend herself, were broken." "This is harassment." "I'm reporting you." "No, wait, just... imagine that was your daughter." "Ooh, sir?" "From Blantyre, to do with the Manuel burglaries." "While you're up, Iris, make us a cuppa, would you?" "I'm a detective, Duncan, not a tea lady." "Can you believe it?" "Me, the "fifth tee" killer?" "Muncie." "I tell you, that bastard's had a grudge with me ever since I gave him that going-over in the alley." "You beat up a copper?" "Aye." "Knocked seven shades of busy shite out of him." "Did you not get done for that?" "Well, I dinnae do it in broad daylight, did I?" "Right." "What's up with you, anyway?" "You've got a face on you like a crow." "You know, Pete, it's the thought of the trial, going to prison." "It's all right for you, you've been inside." "It'll be over before you know it." "Sheriff will give us 18 months, we'll be out in 12." "I mean, a year, what's that?" "A lot in the life of my wee 'uns." "Family man's got the blues?" "Well, maybe I have something that'll put a smile back on your face." "Watch the door." "Webley .38." "What you got that for?" "Making hay while the sun shines, buddy." "We've got one more month of freedom, right?" "Plenty of time for one more job... with added insurance." "Like what?" "A little dickie bird told me about a rich wop that lives in Burnside." "Owns a bunch of ice-cream parlours." "And he has a safe at home where he keeps the weekend takings." "Well, I don't know, Pete, that gun looks pretty knackered." "What do you know about guns?" "The gun's fine." "So, are you in?" "Nah, you're all right." "What's that supposed to mean?" "I just don't think our partnership's been a roaring success, has it?" "We've knocked off half a dozen places and only been done once." "Once is enough for me." "Your loss, chum." "Burnside 3-8-8-5." "Hello, Bill." "Did you..." "Did you speak with Vivienne about er... about our quarrel?" "Not with my sister here." "You know, I didn't mean to hurt you, let alone Vivienne." "Now's not the time, Bill." "Could I say goodnight to her?" "Vivienne?" "Daddy wants a word." "Tell him I'm busy." "She says she's busy." "Whatever Will Be, Will Be" "Teen rebel." "What gives, Daddy's girl?" "It's nothing." "I'm mad at him." "He forgot to give me my pocket money before he went away." "Vivienne..." "Honest." "Look on the bright side, you'll get double next week." "Do you want to stay over tonight?" "Do you mind if I don't?" "I sort of feel like my own bed tonight, you know?" "Sure." "That's fine." "Daddy?" "Sir." "William Watt?" "Lads." "If you'd like to follow us back to Glasgow, sir." "God." "God." "No!" "My girls." "My beautiful girls." "Do you know of anybody... who might harbour feelings of resentment or animosity towards your family?" "Against my wife?" "My daughter?" "No, you couldn't... you couldn't ask for two sweeter souls." "See, I was thinking more towards yourself." "A business rival, say... who would be prepared to carry out such a terrible crime." "I'm a baker." "That's all I am, I'm just a baker." "You see, Mr Watt, I believe this is no ordinary break-in." "I believe there's a motive here." "Chop-chop, girls!" "Jane, school is not a beauty pageant!" "I'm coming." "You know, it is possible it wasn't Manuel." "Leish and his team did go into his house." "They didn't bring him in for questioning, though, did they?" "Yes, but you said yourself there's much that doesn't fit - the gun." "Killing the two older women in their sleep." "No fear for him to gloat on." "Yes, it is possible that it wasn't him." "But is that really good enough?" "For his wife, his daughter and his sister-in-law?" "I mean, in two days' time..." "I can't find my ruler." "It's by your bed, sweetheart." "In two days' time, him and Brannan are going to stand trial for that caper over in Blantyre and then they're going to be in prison for a few months, and you know how that works." "As a suspect, Peter Manuel will cease to exist." "I know, I know." "I'm sorry, Ag..." "I need to see that house for myself." "They weren't asleep - the mother and her sister." "They weren't asleep." "Look, lying side-by-side like they're standing to attention." "Nobody sleeps like that." "They were awake." "They were most likely terrified." "So, Mr Watt confirmed that none of his wife's jewellery was stolen." "All present and correct, sir." "There's no safe." "No, sir." "Then why this house?" "Burglars act on information, so he knew something." "What's so special about 5 Fennsbank Avenue?" "That's number two." "No number one." "It was a mess-up on the part of the planners, apparently." "Yeah, but he didn't know that, did he?" "What if he never meant to break in at number five?" "What if the intended target was number four?" "It's dark." "He doesn't know there's no number one, so he just counts along, saw one, two... three, four." "Except that was number five, not number four." "So, who lives in number four?" "Italian family by the name of Valente." "Is that the ice cream Valentes?" "The same." "Yeah, you see?" "That's money." "I think this was Manuel." "Yes, sir." "Well, you've known him since his old housebreaking days, so if you've got any thoughts, then..." "I'd like to hear them." "Well, when it came to housebreaking, he always liked to have a base." "A vacant property where he could lay low, watch and wait." "Who lives in there?" "Number 18?" "Spinsters, sisters." "Been on holiday in Wester Ross since the 10th." "Hello, Peter Manuel." "Leish is making an announcement." "They've made an arrest." "A little after 11 o'clock this morning, a team of Hamilton CID officers led by myself arrested a 52-year-old man." "It's William Watt." "Was he not supposed to be 90 miles away in a hotel?" "Yeah, he was, but two eyewitnesses have come forward." "They both made statements on the night of the murders they on the road between the hotel and Burnside." "Congratulations!" "Congratulations!" "Well done, sir." "Look, I don't know what the story is with your two eyewitnesses, but trust me, sir, they're mistaken." "It's Manuel." "Manuel." "What is it with you and Manuel?" "His house was one of our first raids, Bill, top to bottom." "We even dug up the garden." "There was no bloodstained clothing, no gun, there was nothing." "And his father provided us with an alibi." "His father always provides him with an alibi." "Now, hear me out, sir." "When I arrested Manuel in 1946 for housebreaking," "I saw the exact same thing that I saw at 18 Fennsbank Avenue today." "Homeowners away on holiday, him using their house as a base." "And the same... peculiar, petty act of vandalism - an old tin of soup with the contents poured on the floor - telling us it's him." "You traipse all over my crime scene and that's the bombshell?" "Soup?" "Come on, Bill, please tell me you've got something else." "A fingerprint or something." "Who needs fingerprints?" "Well, a motive, then." "He's a psychopath... that's all the motive he needs." "He kills people because he enjoys it." "And for him, that's every bit as compelling as revenge or passion or greed..." "Or marital dissatisfaction?" "I'm sorry." "Listen, Bill, the lassie next door, Deanna Valente, she said that Vivienne was angry with her father that night." "Vivienne said it was something about pocket money, but Deanna sensed she was hiding something." "Morning, boy." "How you keeping?" "I've got that latest James Bond you ordered." "I never ordered..." "There's a very gripping passage on page 100." "Mind you, when it comes to fiction," "Superintendent Leish is in a class of his own?" "You bumping off your family by making a 180-mile round-trip by car, at night." "And all done and dusted in time for kippers for breakfast." "No." "Leish is an arse." "You can quote me on that - Peter Manuel." "I know you didn't kill them." "Page 100." "Chin up, Willy." "Salvation's closer than you think." "Mr Manuel, it says in your note that you know the real killer but you're not prepared to divulge his name." "Well, it troubles me to see a client's life hanging by a thread." "Look, I won't name names, that's just principle with me." "However, I will give you sufficient for you to prove that William Watt is an innocent man." ""To our mutual advantage."" "You want money?" "No." "Perish the thought." "All I'm saying is, if you judge what I have to say to be of use, then who knows?" "Maybe at some point in the future, if I find myself in a jam, you'll let me call on your services." "Tell me what you know." "It was me... who provided the culprit with a gun which killed those three unfortunate women." "A Webley .38." "And that's not all." "After your man done what he did... he came to see me again with a bad case of the horrors." "He told me everything which happened that night." "Everything." "Hello, Dad." "Do we have a fancy visitor?" "We do." "Superintendent Leish advised me that I've been led by the nose by a teller of tall tales." "He voiced the opinion that I must have been talking to you." "So here I am... talking to you." "What do you make of what Manuel told me?" "I believe every word... give or take." "He murdered your client's family." "Well..." "Let me show you something." "This is my unofficial file." "This is Anne Kneilands... and this is the Watt family." "Welcome to the world of Peter Manuel." "Mr Muncie, William Watt is almost out of time." "Any day now, the Crown will serve their indictment, then it's a high-court trial and then, well... the mind boggles." "I intend to go to the fiscal, see if I can stop this madness before it's too late." "May I borrow these?" "Er... yes, of course, but wouldn't you rather have some help?" "I carried out a timed run." "Burnside to the Cairnbaan Hotel and back." "Now, Leish and his men were correct, it is possible that William Watt could have done the journey in a little bit over two hours." "But he would have had to have been travelling between 55 and 60 miles an hour the whole way." "Now, this Roderick Morrison, second of the Crown's two eyewitnesses, he sounds the most plausible to me." "What's your view on him?" "Morrison is plausible but his statements aren't corroborated." "So it's basically his word against William Watt's." "That is about the size of it." "Except that it's not." "Because when I got to the Cairnbaan Hotel, I spoke to a waitress, a very sensible young woman by the name of Patricia Carew." "And she told me that when she arrived for work at 8:10 on the morning of the 17th," "she saw William Watt scraping ice from the windscreen of his car." "Which, obviously, he wouldn't have had to do if his vehicle had just completed a four-hour round trip." "Forgive me, inspector, but you did all this driving and questioning despite not being part of the investigating team?" "Yes, sir, I did." "And thank heavens for William Watt that Bill's done all this." "Robert, we have a wealth of circumstantial evidence here, which, viewed purely as grounds for ruling the charge against my client unsafe, is most compelling." "This is a rare state of affairs." "A defence lawyer and a police officer on the same side, requesting the Lord Advocate himself make a public admission that the Crown Office got it wrong." "Not for a trifle, Robert... but a man's life." "Could we have something from you, Mr Watt?" "Mr Watt would like to say a few words." "I know that as long as this terrible crime remains unsolved, the public will always think of me as the man who murdered his family." "The police could not find him, but I will." "To him, I say, as long I live..." "I shall not rest until you, who took all that was dear to me, get what you so rightly deserve." "What is left of my life... will be spent hunting a monster." "Three guesses who's behind Willy Watt's release." "Did I say you could sit down?" "Come on, Charlie, I'm front-page news." "Don't mention my name, maybe, but I'm there, all right, between the lines." "Get off my table, will you, you fucking loon?" "Now, Tallis, no-one talks to Peter..." "Enjoy your retirement, sir." "Sorry, sir, I thought you'd left." "I had..." "I have." "I just came back for this." "I believed I was right, Bill." "But I hope, for all our sakes, you prove me wrong." "We're hoping you can help us devise a strategy, Bill." "Manuel wants to meet with William." "Provoking his vanity, that'll be the key." "You need to cast doubt on anything that he tells you." "You know, push him." "Push him and he'll reveal more than is good for him." "I want that meeting to be somewhere very public like a restaurant." "And most important of all," "Laurence, I want you to be there, too." "Because that way, if Manuel does say something self-incriminating, then at least this time we'll have some corroboration." "Of course." "Agreed." "Now, erm..." "Mr Watt..." "I hope you realise that Manuel's going to make it his business to cause you as much distress as possible." "And he's going to talk to you about a subject matter that's going to be very hard for you to hear." "Because that's his twisted idea of fun." "Manuel murdered my wife and my daughter, Mr Muncie... there's nothing he can say or do that can unsettle me." "Afternoon, gents." "Laurence." "Mr Manuel." "Willy!" "Peter." "Good to see you again." "We're a long way from Barlinnie now." "Aren't we just?" "Tallis." "Charlie Tallis." "That's the man who killed your family." "A gang boss." "Fancies himself as a bit of a hard man." "Funny thing is, he was at Barlinnie the same time we were." "Came in a few weeks after me." "Bastard?" "Larry!" "Jesus." "Sorry, lad, your lovely suit!" "No, no, I'm sorry!" "It's perfectly all right." "No, no, I sha" "I shall return momentarily." "Alone at last?" "You know, erm..." "Willy... were you to gave me a boost, money-wise, well... it'd be my sincere pleasure to put an end to Charlie Tallis." "Well, that's a..." "It's an interesting offer." "But, you know, Peter, er..." "I would have to know that Tallis was the one." "You'd need to give me real proof." "Is that right?" "Something really incriminating, Willy?" "Now that you mention it... there was something that Tallis said about your daughter." "Don't shoot the messenger." "What Charlie said was, by the time he was out of there... your little girl Vivienne... she weren't a virgin no more." "William!" "William, for God's sake." "William!" "You tell Muncie, Larry..." "You tell him he'll need to do a lot better than you two to get one over on Peter Manuel." "What do you think?" "Gorgeous." "C'est tres jolie." "Thank you so much, Mum." "There's no question you will be the belle of Bellshill Ball." "Jane, it's your go." ""You find a footprint in the flowerbed"." "A man or a woman's shoe?" "Work it out, you're the detective" "I'll get it." "Who's Dr Barnardo?" "It's a charity, sweetie." "Thank you." "Anne Kneilands was this time of year." "New Year's Day." "And then there was a woman... that he attacked with a hammer when he was 15." "That was at Christmas." "Maybe the festive season." "Other people's happiness brings out the worst in him." "I don't want Jane going to this dance in Bellshill." "Nor do I, Bill." "Do you want me to tell her?" "No, we'll tell her together." "OK." "I'm sorry about the wrapping paper, but it's the thought that counts, right?" "Go on, open them." "Son." "Well, try 'em on." "You feel the lining in that." "That's a proper pair of gentleman's gloves, that is." "Thanks a million, son." "Look at her, she's speechless!" "Mum." "You look beautiful." "It's lovely." "Why don't you say something?" "About what?" "Because you stole these things, Peter." "Yeah, and you know that." "These are other people's Christmas presents." "I can't do anything right, can I?" "I cannae do anything right by you three." "Peter, come on, it's Christmas." "Muncie." "OK, send a car." "What's happened?" "A girl's gone missing." "We went out about 4:00." "Mother and Izzy..." "Isabelle..." "were looking after the boys." "Isabelle gave her youngest Robert his bath." "Then she left about 6:45 to catch the bus over to the dance in Bellshill." "She was wearing her... dark blue dress." "It had a white collar attached." "Er... with a navy cardigan." "Matching navy cardigan." "Over that, her blue coat." "And she was carrying her little peppermint vanity case... with her dancing pumps and hairbrush inside." "She told Mother she was taking the shortcut to the bus stop across the fields." "What is it, sir?" "I know this place." "Think it's hers, sir?" "He attacked a woman here 12 years ago... and I think, last night, he came back." "I'm meant to be at work." "So, why am I here?" "What's happened?" "A young woman's gone missing in Mount Vernon and I think your brother may have something to do with it." "Theresa, do you know where Peter was last night between the hours of 6:00 and 7:00?" "We had a fight on Christmas Day." "He hasn't been home since." "Do you know where he is now?" "No." "Theresa, I think that you and I both want the same thing - no more people hurt." "And I know that when Peter was in remand in Barlinnie, you went to see the prison doctor." "Is that because you have got concerns about his sanity?" "I don't have to be here." "I want to leave." "Now." "I want to leave now." "It's a breadcrumb trail of Isabelle's belongings from where he took her." "Buttons." "Her hairbrush." "Dancing shoes." "He's playing games." "He's missing, same location." "It's just 1946 all over again, only worse." "It's as if he wants to be caught." "For him, getting arrested would be the biggest thrill of all." "Headlines, face in all the papers..." "For being a murderer of innocent women?" "That's not how he sees it." "In his head, he's a... criminal mastermind." "Do you think the girl's dead?" "I don't know how else to read it." "When will you tell the family?" "When we find something conclusive." "So... he's missing, she's missing." "We need manpower." "I'll call in support from local stations." "Yes?" "It's Manuel." "Here I am, public enemy number one." "Subtitles by Deluxe resync+fixes by shoky"

"I'm haunted by them, Agnes." "I see them everywhere." "They feel more real to me than you." "No one can help me." "Please, my love." "Let me try." "You are to mingle on the shop floor, surreptitiously." "You are not to reveal to anyone that you are store security, staff or customers." "Remember, this is an experiment." "Let's see if you can make it to the end of the day without being discovered." "To your stations, gentlemen." "The very best of luck to you." "A shilling that by lunchtime the whole operation is bust." "You're on!" "(LAUGHS)" "Look who's come to visit." " Victor." " Hello, Kitty." "I'm afraid this isn't just a social visit." "I need to talk to you about the servicemen you brought in to the club yesterday." "What servicemen?" "No?" "Try this one." "I have another, Mrs Crabb." "I'm so sorry." "I have changed my mind." "Oh..." "All right." "Thank you." "How are you?" "I know everyone's a bit shaken up." "I'm almost scared to walk home tonight." "Then don't." "We've been saying we'll go out for ages, so let's." "(LAUGHS)" " Very well." " I'll see you this evening." "Yes." "I bought them drinks because I thought it would loosen their tongues." "I had no idea they might be dangerous." "Why didn't you tell me?" "We can't be sure it was Charlie and Silas." "What did they look like?" "One was tall and fair." "He was the leader." "The other was smaller." "Strange face, not quite right." "Right..." "Sounds like them." "Charlie Copperstone was always a mean bugger." "Silas, he's all right." "Not all there in the head, though." " Do you know where to find them?" " They did say they were sleeping rough." "In some old cellar down by the river." "You need to go to the Inspector." "What if we do this anonymously?" "Ring through with the information." " They might not take it seriously." " Do you know how much trouble we're in?" "Your club will get closed down." "I treated these men to drinks out of hours." "I could go to prison." "Kitty, I..." "Wait..." "Don't..." "You'd save your own skin before mine!" "How could you?" "Kitty, wait!" "He had an argument with Lord Loxley, who's pulled out of investing in the plane." "Why didn't Serge say?" "I know Serge seems confident, but underneath..." "He's led a strange life." "He hasn't known where he belongs." "During your engagement, though, I've never seen him so happy." "But since we've been married?" "It's been difficult for him, living under Harry's roof." "And now with this Loxley thing." "So the silly boy gambles and loses rather a lot of money." " What?" " Which he hasn't got to hand at the moment." "He doesn't know what to do, or who to turn to." " It is so beautiful." " We'll take both dresses." "Very good." "Excuse me, is there anything you'd actually like to purchase?" "I shall get my assistant to measure your daughter." "Excuse me." "CONNIE:" "Only you have been looking for ages now." "So if not, you might want to move on to another department." "Is there anything the matter?" "That pervert's been hanging around the nightwear." "I saw him off." "Would you go and measure the young lady, please, Miss Hawkins?" "And try not to see her off, won't you?" "Thank you." "Doris, how lovely to see you." "Why did you tell Roger about what happened with that young man?" "You shouldn't have said anything!" " I didn't mean to cause any trouble." " Well, you have." "Keep your nose out of my marriage." "We talked." "Really talked." "That is good." "He's at home." "Um, the doctor gave him some medicine so that he can sleep." "But I don't think he should come back to work, Mr Selfridge." "And I'm handing in my notice, too." "Really?" "That's very sudden." "I never thought I could give all of this up, but he's more important to me than anything." "That's why I've decided we have to leave." "Not just the store." "London." "It's too busy." "He needs to be somewhere quiet." "I have known you a long time." " Ever since I sold you those gloves." " (CHUCKLES)" "You were a shop girl then." "Look at you now." " It's down to you." " No." "You changed my life, gave me opportunities." "You reached out and took them." "Ooh!" " Arthur!" " Mildred?" "Are you all right?" "That man has not stopped looking at me and following me in the most sinister fashion." "My dear, let me explain." "We have some new covert security..." "No." "No." "No." "No." "These gloves aren't right." "What did I tell you?" "A place for everything, and everything in its place." "To work in Accessories is to work in the most exacting department in the whole store." "Mrs Leclair." "Can I help you with something?" "I just remember when Miss Mardle gave me that speech." "I started on Accessories when I wasn't much older than your assistant." "And now look where you are." "You're an example to us all." "I don't know about that, but I've had a wonderful time of it." "Keep up the good work, Miss Calthorpe." " We had a bet, Mr Crabb..." " Which I won." "Oh, come now." "The new security team did rather well." " Mrs Crabb wouldn't agree." " She was lingering in a suspicious fashion." "She was merely taking her time." "One of my assistants was also made aware of them." "The problem is men in women's departments." "I wonder, should we add women to the team?" "The loading bay workers were strong." "They could deal with an incident." " They'd also fit in." " That's a very good idea, Mr Crabb." "I think the Chief would like it, too." "I will run it by him tomorrow." "Did Mrs Grove enjoy choosing dresses for her birthday?" "Very much." "Thank you for your help." "And the incident with the young man?" "Oh, that was nothing." "Apparently, he mistook her for someone else." "Disused cellars down by the river?" "Ring any bells with you, Purkiss?" "There's some by Chelsea Wharf, sir." "We'll go down there tonight." "I'll need Mrs Edwards to come." "She'll have to identify her attackers." "You could have told us this earlier." "I didn't put two and two together." "Really?" "I'm not very proud of myself, about any of this." "So could we get on with it?" "I presume you're going to charge me?" "The important thing is to track these men down." "Then I'll decide what to do with you." "Morning." "Can you see that Lord Marchant gets this?" "It's from Mr Serge De Bolottoff." "Yes, ma'am." "(CLICKS TONGUE)" "I knew he had a bad night." "But to get his wife to pay his debts for him?" "Bad show." "That's what wives do, Lord Loxley, if they love their husbands." "Your new husband told me some interesting things about your family." "I wonder, did he did that out of love for you?" "Leave my husband and my family alone." "I have a list of architects here." "And there are a couple I'd particularly recommend." "Harry?" "Harry?" "I'm sorry." "You were saying?" "You're preoccupied." "This obviously isn't a good time." "My deputy and Head of Design are leaving." "I just heard." "They must be replaceable." "There are so many talented people in London." "No." "He's my best friend and she's, um..." "She's like a daughter to me." "Poor Harry." "Losing them both at once." "(SIGHS)" "It's so good to have you to talk to." "Since my wife died, I've had no one." "Please stop." "Just, please stop." "I know you don't want to be alone." "I like you, Harry, but you can't just look to the closest person to fill the void." "No, no." "It's not like that." "No." "You've got it all wrong." "I don't think I have." "Please, let's forget this conversation ever happened." " Nancy, please." " It's all right." "AGNES:" "Do you have happy memories of your childhood?" "Yes, I do." "When you're a child, you can't imagine anything will ever go wrong." "The house where you grew up, what's it like?" "Big." "Grey stone." "White shutters." "It's by the sea." "The horizon goes on forever." "Huge skies, empty beaches." "You can walk all day and see nobody." "Let's go there." "Go?" "We can't just leave London." "I've handed in my notice." "No." "No, Agnes, I won't have you sacrificing yourself for me." "It's out of the question." "Everything you've built..." "Is nothing without you." "And when we're not together we're not whole." "I want to make you better." "There's nothing more important than that." " Are you sure?" " I'm sure." "Then yes, I'd love to go home." "And show it all to you." "So it's decided." "What if I don't get better?" "You will." "It might take a long time." "Well, we've got all the time in the world." " POLICEMAN:" "Look at me." " Who is that?" "Is that him?" "(VETERANS CLAMOURING INDISCERNIBLY)" "You, wake." "Look at me." "(CLAMOURING CONTINUES)" "POLICEMAN:" "Wake." " That's him." "That's one of them." " Up you get." "Stop him!" "(BLOWS WHISTLE)" "Stop!" "Police!" "Get off me!" "Get your hands off me, you scum!" "I fought the war for you, and look at me!" "What's up with you?" "Left to rot down here!" "Look at me!" "That's the ringleader." "That's him!" "Take him away." "(SHOUTING)" "It's all right." "(DOOR OPENS)" "Well, was it them?" "They've locked them up for the night." "They'll charge them tomorrow." "There were lots of them down there." "It makes you wonder where their families are, their friends..." "You don't need to worry about that." "Come on, old thing, let's get you to bed." "I..." "Need to be alone tonight." "I'm sorry, Kitty..." "I should have told you before, but I panicked." " Please..." " (SHUDDERS) Not tonight." "(UPBEAT JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING)" "(LAUGHING)" " What are you doing here?" " I could say the same to you." "Does Pa know you're out on your own?" "Yes, as it happens." "He didn't like it, but there was nothing he could do." "Have we met?" " This is Grace Calthorpe." " Accessories." "Of course." "Stay with us." "We've got a table." "I don't need a chaperone." "Have fun, little brother." "I had no idea that your sister was going to be here." "Mr Purkiss." "What can I do for you?" "You shouldn't have come down to the station." "You brought attention to yourself." " Johnson will have his eye on you now." " Good luck to him." "I'm going to play it by the book." "No more drinking after hours, no more bungs to you." "You wouldn't last a month." "We've got regulars." "They come here for the music, not the drink." " I'll make it work." " Not if I've got anything to do with it." "You've had your blood money." "Call it quits." "You don't get it, do you?" "It's me that chooses when to walk away." "You haven't heard the last of this." "(WHISTLE BLOWS)" "Have a safe journey." "I will miss you terribly, Agnes." "Make sure you write to me." "Come here." "Thank you for everything." "Take good care of yourself." "You'll be all right." " I hope so." " I know so." "You have each other." "It's true." "I'm lucky." "Thank you, Harry." "Thank you for everything you've done for me." "(WHISTLE BLOWS) All aboard!" "Henri, we have to go." "We're going to miss them." "I don't know what I'm going to do without her." "Home, Mr Selfridge?" "Not just yet." " Harry?" " Can I come in?" "Is something the matter?" "What is it?" "You know something?" "You should have more faith in yourself." "What are you talking about?" "Is this the way you treat every man that makes a pass at you?" "Because if so, no wonder you're single." " Excuse me?" " I don't want any woman by my side." "I want you." "You're clever and funny and brave." "You're also a little cross and defensive, but even when you're angry, I like you." "And I love it when you frown, because those little lines right there, well, they're sweet." "And I love it when you smile." "Those little dimples, they just have to be kissed." "We shouldn't, we really shouldn't." "Ripped By mstoll"

"I'll call you on Monday." "Okay, bye." "Wallet..." "All right, I got it." "All right." "Come on in." "Why don't you put the groceries down, and we'll just leave 'em, and..." "Wow." "Big reveal." "Oh, yeah, I can't really take responsibility for the decoration." "My cousin and her kids kind of come up here a lot." " No, I love it." " She likes patterns." "Most of it really hasn't been changed probably in 40 years, either." "Um..." "All right." "Here's a bathroom if anybody needs it." "Um, I expect you might." "Uh...it is--We're on a septic line, so try not to put any..." "down that thing." "Um, great." "You guys are gonna be in this room here." "Where do I put my tampons?" "You keep them in a bag." " Is this us?" " This is you." "What?" "In a cabin, you keep them in a bag?" "Why don't you two settle in, clean up if you want to clean up, and we'll go put the groceries away, and then, you know, if you want to crack a beer or two or something." "Oh, yes, please." "Yeah, welcome, but just, you know, make yourself at home, okay?" " Thank you, man." " Great." "What is that?" " It's really cute." " Yeah, it is." "I've got you alone in a cabin with this thing." " How's the bed?" " Uh..." "Oh, it's squishy." " It is?" " It's really--Oop." "I feel like we're gonna break it." "We're good." "Hi." "Morning." "You think I could make eggs or something?" "Yeah, sure." "Um, sorry, sorry, sorry." "For a man who has everything, he's only got little bowls." "Sorry." "That was a terrible joke." "Eggs?" "Sure, yeah." "You close with your parents?" " Sort of." " Sort of." "I mean, we talk." " I talk to them." " Yeah." "We don't hate each other." "That's a positive." "Are you?" "Hey!" "Hey!" "You're up." "You look great." "Oh, thank you." "Here, let me help you up." " Oh, merci." " How are ya?" "Got a mouthful of hair just then, sorry." "Sorry." " Good." "I prefer it." " Good." " Hey." " Morning." "Thanks for having us." "Sure." "My pleasure." "Just coming to see if I can interest you guys in a hike, a little trail hike." "Will it offend you at all if I say no?" "Absolutely not." "No way, then." "I'm not going." "If you don't mind." " Doesn't offend me at all." " Awesome." "Yeah, maybe--How about you?" "You want to go?" "I..." "Probably spent the first month trying to figure out what was in it for her, you know." "But I guess you have to take a person at their word that... they're actually into you, you know?" "I don't know." "It's hard to figure women out." " Well..." " Still working on it." "I mean, you're an interesting... polite gentleman." "I'm sure that's..." " That's a good way to put it." " I'm sure that's a big factor." "That's a lovely way to put it." " Well, I'll bet a lot of people..." " I'm probably a little" "Interesting gentlemen don't necessarily come in there all the time." "I'm probably somewhere on the Asperger's spectrum." "That's probably a little closer to it." " All right, you ready?" " Yes." "What's your first bet?" "What's a good first bet?" "Five dollars?" "We're gonna-Way more than that." "Let's say $100 minimum at this table." "This is VIP." "I don't have $100." "Well, the house will give you $1,000." "Not give you, but as a credit." "Oh, I was like, "I love gambling!"" "Yeah, you just went..." "No, the house will spot you 1,000, because we know you're good for it." " Great." " So $100." "Okay, I shouldn't--$100." "Yeah, you don't want to go 1,000 to start." "You want to go more?" "No, I'll Start with 100." "Okay." "Good luck to you." "A nine versus a face." "Hit me." "We got a nine and an eight." "That's a hard 17." "What do you say?" "Hit me." "You want to hit with a 17?" " Yeah, hit me." " That is a very bold" "And a bust, ma'am." "That is a 23." " We're really sorry." "You're down $100." " That's okay." "I was gonna say, I wonder sometimes, you know, if I'd have met somebody like her or you or, you know, somebody that had that kind of... thing going on 15 years ago..." "Well, you know what?" "I probably did." "I probably did meet somebody like that." "And I probably wasn't paying attention." "You have lost every hand." "You are down $1,000." "I am yet to see my cards." "Will the casino kindly give me another $1,000?" " I'll tell you" " I'm good for it." " Kate, I" " This is like college." "I have never done this before, but I'll talk to the pit boss." "We'll give you another $1,000!" "Yes!" "Thank you." "You better win it back, kid." "'Cause if you lose $2,000," "I personally am gonna bust your legs." " I'm all warmed up now." " How much?" "A hundred dollars." "That low right now?" " You're right." " Let's get weird." " Three hundred dollars?" " Now we're talking." "Good luck, ma'am." "I really mean that." "I do work off tips." "This thing's amazing." "Where'd you get that?" "Um, it kind of came with my--my pack." " It's fantastic." " It's a little--yeah." "It's a little dinky, but it's got the tarp underneath." " Yeah, it's, like, waterproof." " So it's, like, heavy-duty." "Absolutely perfect." "Uh, yeah." "Oh, wow." "Okay." "I didn't think I brought-- was glasses for the wine." "But we can probably just swig out of the bottle." "Are you cool with that?" "No, no." "I'm happy to see this." "I've--I've been kind of dreading this, 'cause I felt like you were so impressed by my outdoorsy-ness." " Yeah?" " And, um..." "Uh, this is actually..." "Are you fucking kidding me?" " Are you kidding me with that?" " I know." "It's embarrassing." " Who are you?" " it's" "I'm a bourgeois pig." "That is--That is gorgeous." "Look at that." "Oh, my God." "I know." "It's got, like, silverware and" " Nah, that's great." " it has a cheese board." "You saved the day." "No, you just saved the day." "That's fantastic." "Now I'm fine." "I love it." "Yeah, I thought, "I'll use this all the time."" "Jill, you're not fucking around, are you?" "But this is actually the first time I've gotten to use it, so thank you." "I'm honored." "All right." "Here's to not fucking around." " Cheers." " Cheers." "Can I get rid of these onions?" "Is that fair?" "No, that's part of it." "All right, let's have one humongous sandwich, and we'll cut it in half." "We won't use mayo." "That's a perfect compromise." "This is the best sandwich ever." "Wait." "Can we get this disgustingness off the top?" "Yeah." "I don't know if I put enough mustard on." "You have to put a lot of mustard on." "I feel like I might--may be about to embarrass myself." "My heart's beating really fast." "Um..." "How come?" "Is that just me?" "Maybe that's just me." "Sorry." "How come?" " What's going on?" " Um..." "No, I just had, like, a nervous feeling." "Um, but that just might be..." "That just might be all me." "Oh, no, don't do that." "Don't do that." "We're even." "Yeah, all right." " We're even." " Okay." "Allow the moment to be even." "You don't say soy cheese." "I don't say mayo." "We're adults." "Oh, you are the worst." "Luckily I caught it." "Look at you." "You're a pirate." "That help?" "Okay, go!" "Oh!" "Ah, fuck." " Here." " Okay." "Ten o'clock." "Oh." "You broke my finger." "Don't even think about it!" "Come on!" "Hey, doing okay?" "Mm-hmm." "You?" "Good." "Oh." "Let me give you this." "Oh, thanks." "You know, I don't need it if..." "No, it's fine, I made a" " It's fine." " Yeah." "Are you gonna do that the whole time?" "I might, yeah." "I might." "I want to see where you are." " Good part." " Do you like it?" "I do." "Remember, jacks and jokers." "Okay." "No!" "'Cause if you hit accidentally, you have to get punished for it." "No!" "Ah, damn it." "Oh, fuck!" "That's a seven!" "All right, so you get all those, and I get punished." "I decide." "That's right." "When we started, you said seven." "Faster, faster, faster." "Faster, faster." "Faster!" "Ah!" "Which one do you want to do?" "You want to deal, or you want to slap?" "I want you to deal." "No, I want you to deal." "Okay." "Five seconds on the deal." "I'll do the first three." "You do the last one." "Okay, okay, okay." "Okay, ready?" "Do you feel good?" "Yeah, I'm ready." "So is that what you choose to do?" " Yes." " Then do this for the cameras." "Oh." "There's a camera above us at all times, so you go like this, and if you want to--okay." "If you want to hit, you go like this." "And then you clear your hands to make sure you're not stealing chips." "Shouldn't you hit on the 14?" "No, 'cause you have to think about what I'm playing." "Not against a three." "So what would you like to do, ma'am?" " I'll stay." " That's a very smart stay." "That's a bad card for you." "Now I have an eight." "Now I have an 11." "Now I have an 18." "You lost that hand, that's--Hey!" " Are we being..." " Sorry." "Are we being way too loud?" "No, no." "No, you guys are fine." "I was just coming to hang out." "Are you saying we're totally fine, but we're being way too loud?" "No, no, he's asleep." "He got me drunk..." " Oh." " I'm sorry." " And I lost so badly." " And she's a total lightweight." " Here, drink this." " Then he was beating me up." " Are you drinking or..." " I'll get my own." "Deal." "Okay, you're up $100." "What would you like to do?" "Do you guys need anything?" "Yeah, let's have another." " Let's just get a couple on the table." " Okay." "Okay, so you lost that hand." "You're down 100 bucks." "She saw me lose." " It's fine." " Okay." "She lost a lot of money earlier." "LUKE, whispering:" "All right." "KATE, whispering:" "Why are you so good at blackjack?" "'Cause when I was younger," "I used to work on the riverboats in the casinos." "What?" "Yeah, my family, we all played cards growing up." "So when I was, like, 19 or 20 or whatever, my buddy got me a job, or an interview, with this Chinese guy who ran a company called "Network Management."" "Which is just, like, a fake company." "And then I got the job." "It was an hourly wage." "And he sent me on the boats with 10,000 bucks for eight-hour shifts." "I just played, you know, with the company's money." "So I was just a worker, but my game was, you know, cards." " That's crazy." " Yeah." "Should we go have a smoke?" " You want to sit outside?" " Okay." " You want to?" " Yeah." "I don't want to wake her up." "Here, I'll grab that." "That's the problem with heartbreak, is that to you, it's like an atomic bomb, and to the world, it's just really cliché, because, in the end, we all have the same experience." "But it's just you and me." "I was madly, madly in love with him, and we were total soul mates and totally in love." "And then he said," ""I think maybe we should just not."" "I think he said something along the lines of," ""I think we should, uh"-- and he's not, like, a football player, so this is a weird thing for him to say" ""I think we should take a knee on this romance stuff."" "What does that mean?" "That's so lame." "I actually had to ask somebody." "I was like, "ls 'take a knee' a good thing?"" "No." " No." " No." "You've obviously got a lot of love, so that's there." "Some people don't." "Some people are snakes." "And you're fun." "And if Chris is lucky..." "You know, you have babies and do all that good stuff and live in this house or a house equivalent to this." "Yeah, you guys could come over and play bridge." "Fuckin' pass." "By the way, I'm not doing more double dates, either." "This was fun." "You love it." "No, I'm having a good time." "You know what I want to do, Kate?" "Mm?" "If you don't want to do it, this is your chance to get out." "Okay." "I want to make a huge fire." "I'm good at making fires." "I can do it." "And we'll sit by the fire and relax on the beach." "And fall asleep on the fucking sand." "And if we don't fall asleep-- because there's a good chance it's too uncomfortable to fall asleep-- we'll put the fire out, and we'll go to bed." "Okay." " Do you want to do that?" " Yes." " Does that sound fun to you?" " Yes." "Are you just saying that?" "Do you really think it sounds fun?" "I think it sounds really fun." "Are you just saying that, or do you really think it sounds fun?" " I think it sounds really fun." " Okay, then we'll do that." "What about if we don't fall asleep and we stay up all night?" "Are you okay with that?" "Yeah, I think that's only, like, four hours away anyway." "That's fine." "That's pretty great." " That's pretty great." " That's pretty great." "I have an idea." "Let's go swimming." "Why not?" "'Cause it's 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning." "We got a great fire and a six pack of beer." "So we can go into the water and come back and get warm." "Let's go." "I'm gonna go in." "Don't." " I'm gonna go in." " Don't!" " Why not?" " Kate, just don't do this." " Why not?" " No, don't go in the water." "Why not?" "Last chance." "Kate, stop it." "Last chance." "Come swimming with me." "Come on!" "Please?" "You're crazy!"

"I just got one." "This is us." "I got it." "Oh, jeez, the hatch is comin'." " You got it?" " Yeah, I got it." "Hey, listen, if you guys ever need anything, give me a call." " Really fun." " Yeah." "So fun." "Thank you." " Thank you." " So much." "So great." "Sleep well, guys." "See you later." " You have keys?" " Yes." "Hey." "Do you want me to drive?" "No, I kind of need to talk to you." "Um..." "Do you want to go-- ls there someplace" "Where do you want to go?" "Home." "Can we just go home?" "I'm really tired." "I'm..." "Yeah, okay." "All right." "Maybe we'll just drive a bit." "All right, I hope you pussies are up for some drinking tonight!" "Look at this entrance." "No one's going home to their significant other, because I no longer have one." "That's right!" "The shackles are off." "I'm free." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Thank you." "So anyway, get yourselves prepared." "Do what you need to do." "Cancel on your wives, and, um, I'll see you pussies tonight." " All right?" " Yeah." "Bye." "Sorry." "Hey." "What?" " For you." " Is that for me?" "Yes, the candle fell in." "Thanks, Gene." " Cheers." " Cheers." " Thanks, guys." " To your new life." " To your freedom." " Yes." "It's a personality thing." "I would advise someone in a reverse situation to give you more rope." "Oh-oh, got 'em. found 'em." " Two shots of Malort." " Uh, no." "Right from the basement." "Go on." "I'm not drinking Malort." " You have to." " It's a Chicago tradition." "You're single." " This'll erase all past mistakes." " I'm single!" " It does?" " Makes room for new ones." " Oh, my God!" " Here we go." "It's like swallowing a burnt condom full of gas." "Ah!" "Ugh." "You really got weird form, Mike." "Well, it's this damn heater, you know?" "I don't know." "Uh-oh." " There she is." " Up top." " Hey!" " Aw." "Thanks." "You Okay?" "Yeah." "Yeah." " Yeah." " Crazy." " No, it's good, though." " You sure?" "Yeah." "It's--I'm young, you know?" "Of course you're young." " Don't hold me down." " No, yeah." "Can't hold me back." "Hey, come outside with me." "Let's have a cigarette and talk." "No." "I'm gonna see you inside." "I'm gonna play games." "Hey, get out here." "Let's have one cigarette." "I want to hear what happened." "Come back soon." "You're the prettiest girl at work." "I'm the only girl at work." "Still." "You still are the prettiest." "You could have been the ugliest girl at work and still been the only one." "You're not." "True, true." "I've been ten minutes out since I got here." "I had one of these, and then I said," ""I'm gonna have one of those," and then here I am." "Yeah, it's hard once it starts going in." "I don't know what I am." "Four or five in?" "You're five in?" " I might've." " Oh." "But I had a turkey burger earlier, so..." "You're really keeping it together." "Yeah, I'm a quiet drunk." "You're right!" "Oh, my God!" " I know." " What?" "Let it sink in, 'cause I've been thinking about it." " It's really our bottom half." " That's right." "Top half, I win for sure." "Yeah." "I'm gonna leave." "I like how we wear--We are, right?" "The same everything." "Guys?" "I'm gonna go." "Gene, good night." "Always a pleasure." "Hey, good night." "I'll see you guys tomorrow." " See you tomorrow." " Bye, Gene." "And he wears it every time we all get together." "No, 'cause it's a conversation starter!" "We wouldn't have jobs if it wasn't for Gene." "I respect Gene." "I respect Gene, and I respect your jean choice." "Yeah, because they're the same as yours." "Yeah." "It's cool." "Hey, I'm gonna take off." "Want a ride?" "Luke, look at our legs." "Look at all how..." " It looks like the same person!" " She's melted." "She's melting in her shoes." "Yeah, we wear the same clothes!" "Would you like a ride home?" "I'm gonna go." "I'm happy to put your bike in my car." "No, you can't go." "I'm gonna give you a ride." "Let's go." " Lock the doors." " Come on." "Let's go." "Why?" "No, come on." "She's good, man." "She's good." "I'm not talking to you, dude." "But you know she's good." "She's fine." "She'll get home." "Luke... stay." "Does he say that in "Star Wars"?" "Kate, you want a ride home?" " Nah, I'm good." " Okay." "Boo." "But wait, I need to take a photo." "Instagram?" "You gonna Instagram it?" "I'm gonna mentally Instagram." "Okay." "In the future, you can do that." "That's true." " You home?" " Hey." "Hey, where are ya?" "I'm in here." " Hey, baby." " Hey." "What are you doing?" "Just working." "Can you bring me home a shipping crate from work?" "I was gonna put it on its side, then put this in, and then, like, mount it..." " Sure." " on the wall." "That's easy enough." "How many you want?" "Just one." "Okay." "I'm gonna get a beer." "You want anything from the kitchen?" " No, thank you." " Nothing?" " I'm okay." " Okay." " Thank you, baby." " Okay." "Hey, you want to hear something crazy?" "Yeah." "Um, Kate broke up with Chris." "Yeah, broke his heart or something." "What, today?" "All--I don't know." "I think last night or early this morning." "I mean, she literally walked in this morning-- you know, you know how much I like Kate, but it's the thing about her that's annoying, where you're like" "You know, she came in, literally going like, "I'm free!"" "That's why everybody went out drinking tonight." "She had, like, a party tonight about being free from Chris." "And I like Chris." "Yeah." " Who knows." " Um..." "Do you mind if I go watch TV?" "I feel, like, emotionally" "No, that's fine." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah." "Do you care?" "No, I'm just gonna..." " Keep doing this?" " Mm-hmm." "You want to go to bed in, like, 45 minutes?" " Okay." " Good." "Hey, babe?" "Did I tell you," "I think I might actually go to Costa Rica?" "No, you didn't." "Yeah." "I thought you didn't want to go." "No, I didn't." "Yeah, I just thought it was gonna be kind of like a bummer, like, trying to re-create college, but I was, like, texting with Kelly, and the more I thought about it," "I just, like--I think I'll be sad if I don't go." "Fun." "How long are you gonna go?" "Just, like, a week." " Wow." " Is that okay?" "Yeah, I just thought you didn't want to go." "Okay." "But I'm not, like, putting you out?" " No." " Okay." "Hey, babe, um... can I bring something up?" "But you have to promise not to get mad." "Jill, are you kidding me?" "Uh..." "No, it's not--It's not bad." " Okay, what?" " It's not--no." " I just feel like" " Please." "Okay." "If we want to get married..." "Which we do." "Uh, I think... it is in our best interest to reopen that" "Continue having great relationship." "I just, uh..." "I would love to reopen the floor for that conversation." "Absolutely." "I think the last time we talked about it is where we still kind of stand-- at least for me-- that we are gonna get married." "We just have to find the right time when we're not as slammed to figure it all out, 'cause figuring it out's kind of the boring part." "Totally." "Um..." "Yeah, figuring it out is the boring part." "Um..." "No, I just don't want to, like, be that couple that's like," ""Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're getting married."" "Uh, yeah." "I just would like to have a conversation about it." " Okay." " We don't have to do it right now." " Great." "Great." " I just want to..." "Can we not do-- Honestly, I feel brain-dead." " No, no, no, it's" " I'm tired." "But I do feel the same way that I feel." "Like, you know where I'm at." " Okay." " Do you know where I'm at?" "Yeah, but I feel--But what I'm saying is, that I think that... if it just feels like it's gonna happen..." " Right." " we're never gonna actually do it." " Right." " Um, look at that." " That was" " Look at that." "That's it." "That's everything." "That's the whole convo." "Are you upset with me at all?" "Be honest." " No." " Okay." "Are you upset with me?" "Like, I..." " No." " I don't want to be the" "And I do want to get married, and I do want to do it." "It's just--I feel like there's gonna be the right time to get into it, 'cause it's gonna be so much planning and work." " It is." "You're right." " And I think... the right moment will present itself... if we continue to have these talks to get us there." "Awesome." " Good?" " We're so connected." "I feel like you're reading my mind." "Really?" "How connected are we?" "She's not wasting any time." "Yeah, well..." "I'm kind of--I feel bad that I know, to be honest." " Really?" " What's up, boys?" "A little bit." " Morning." " You guys get after it?" "How you doing?" "Good." "How late did you guys get?" "Not late enough, apparently." "Yeah, yeah, right." "You want to go in on a plaque?" "Not particularly." "Do I have to?" "Yeah, we're getting Dave a plaque." "Yeah." " You know Ryan at the bar?" " Yeah." "Dave went home with Kate last night." " They were making out on the street." " That's bullshit." "Before they got in the cab." " You guys saw it?" " Not just splitting a cab." " Ryan saw it." " Ryan." "Ryan saw it." "If you can't trust him, who can you trust, right?" " Kind of sucks." " Yeah." "Here's Dave." "We can find out from the source." "I kind of feel, like, bad that I know, because how's she gonna walk in here?" "Yeah, totally." "That's crazy, man." "I wouldn't put those two together." "No, me neither." "If I had to draw lines..." "No, never." "Yeah, man." "Everybody knows." "The whole brewery knows." "I'm not getting into this with you guys." "Hey, come on, man." "Everybody--Ryan told everybody." "Ryan saw you." "So what?" "Yeah, I'm not getting into it." "Come on." "Hi." "I can't do any more phone calls." " Oh, yeah?" " They see through me." "They see through this." "You should drink some coffee." "I had so much coffee, but let's get food." "I need some-- Do you want to get some?" "Can't." "I'm slammed actually, Kate." "You're not having lunch?" "Yo!" "We have enough clean kegs for the stuff in the bright tank?" "Luke." "What's up?" "What's up with the bright tank?" "Are we good?" "I'm working, Dave." "I'm asking you a work question." "What did you ask me, man?" "I asked you if we have enough clean kegs for the bright tank." "I'm not in the fucking mood, man." "Everything's off." "Yeah." "You got to--You got to revisit it." "It's amazing." "And the next development is a canning line, which is great, 'cause as of now, we can't sell the beer in cans." " Will you excuse me one second, Eli?" " Absolutely." "I'm gonna be right back." " Yo." " Yo." "Where you going?" "Going home, man." "Why don't you stay and have one beer with me?" "'Cause I'm having a shit day, and I'm ready" " What are you doing?" " Going home." "You owe me a beer." "I owe you a beer?" "Yeah, we have to sit and have a beer." "Hey. guys." "Drinks?" "Oh, we have plans." "Oh, we do?" " All right." " Have fun, guys." "You want to all get together, tip a few back and see what happens?" "Shut up." "Dave." "Please?" "One fucking beer." "All right." "Thank you." "I'm gonna go finish up with Eli." "I'll be right back." "Great." "Close the deal." "I'll meet you over there." " Yeah, of course." " Thank you." "You're welcome." "I was full of shit yesterday." "I don't know." "Ugh, whatever." "Hey, here's the truth:" "I'm done giving you shit, and I'm sorry." "I have no place." "You are a grown woman, and if you want to have sex with a disgusting, bad brewer with a terrible attitude..." "I don't love Dave." "You smell good." " Really?" " Yeah." "Surprised you got all of Dave off of ya." "Maybe you're smelling Dave." "Mine would be a futon, and then all--you know..." "It's just very--It's cool." "It's, like, cozy, but it's still all put together." "Jill, this place is so great." "Oh, thank you so much." "Yeah, she was just complimenting it and how great your style is and all of that." " Oh, my style?" " Yeah, you got style." "You got style, woman." "I've got a veggie lasagna, but it's not done yet, so I thought I would feed us something for now." "Thank you." "Wow." "You are the best." "This is great." " Hey, cheers, everybody." " Yes." "To being in our house and hanging out with us and for making a great meal." "To our new kid." " Aw." " Thanks, Mom." "Thanks, Dad." " Aw." " Couldn't resist." "I got her when she young." "She was 21." "She didn't know any better." "She hadn't seen the world yet." "I could really" "I have a feeling she knew what she was doing." "I could really do my C-plus material, and she was like, "Wow."" "I could be half drunk and still make it work." "And then to evolve." "I mean, 21's so young." "And then you get older, and so much happens." "You change in those years drastically." "Oh, yeah." "No, I for sure thought that I was gonna fuck a lot more dudes."

"This alley here, see..." "Come on, come on!" "That is why, in this city, every cop has got to choose." "Either you sell out, or you look away or you go to war." "Most people don't like war." "And Major Oliveira was no exception." "Every Friday, he went up the hill to get his grease" "The dough dirty cops charge to overlook the drug dealing." "Wise up, Marcinho!" "What's up, Scary?" "Wise up there are worms coming uphill." "Stay cool, Bihop!" "Let them up 'cuz it's all greased, bro." "Word." "Drug dealers live in constant war but they too want to survive." "Why start a firefight with the police if you can negotiate?" "Only that night there was a cop who was not there to pick up money." "It was Cap." "Fábio" "He was there against his will, shitting his pants." "If Fábio hadn't been in that police car..." "Neto and Matias would not have gone up the slum either." "Neto and Matias would never look away or sell out." "They were honest." "Alright!" "They are coming out of the patrol car, look." "So, can you see Fabio?" "You won't be needing this Cap., the hill is just peachy tonight." "You'll leave me unarmed?" "Let's go, man, let's go, shit!" "Shit, go!" "Can you see Fabio?" "Hang on." "Leave it to me." "What do you see, man?" "What are you seeing?" "Calm down, man!" "The truth is that peace in Rio depends on a delicate balance between the ammunition of scum and the corruption of cops." "Honesty is not part of the game." "What do you see, man?" "What is happening, man?" "Leave it to me, man!" "Calm down." "Fuck..." "Have you seen Fábio, man?" "Calm down." "What?" "What?" "It is an unstable balance which can be brought down by the slightest breeze and on that Friday the wind howled over the Hill of Babilonia." "It was on that night that Neto and Matias decided to go to war." "Fuck, who did you shoot, man?" "Let's go, man." "Fuck!" "what's this shooting, bro?" "There are two worms coming up the slum." "Who did you shoot, man?" "Come with me, budy." "Come with me, dammit." "Fuck!" "Fuck, Marcinho, activity, bro." "Activity, Marcinho!" "Fuck, there are two worms going down your way." "Go fuck yourself, shitface." "Try to take our turf, shitface." "Go fuck yourself, shitface." "Try to take our turf, shitface." "We're screwed, fuck!" "Shit!" "We're gonna die, man." "We're gonna die, man." "Don't stop shooting, bro." "Fuck!" "We're fucked, we're fucked, man." "We're gonna die, man!" "No, partner." "Stay calm, bro." "I'm gonna die, man." "We're not afraid of them." "Fuck!" "I'm running out of ammo, man!" "Tranquility, calm, that's all." "We are going up there to our bit calm and tranquil, got it?" "There may be a huge crowd in the slum 'cos today is funk party day." "So, we go in slow, there may be officers down at the site." "So we just go in calm." "If Rio was to rely solely on conventional police the traffic would have taken over the city long ago" "That is why there is the BOPE, the elite squadron of the military police." "Anyone knows the Babilonia?" "I do, zero-one!" "Okay, you're the pointman then." "It is by the main road, on the right." "In theory, BOPE is part of the military police." "In practice, it is a completely different police." "The symbol of BOPE makes quite clear what happens when we go into a slum" "And our uniform is not blue, it's black." "The BOPE is here!" "Nobody is going up." "Nobody is going up." "Everybody is going to stay here nice and quiet." "No one is going up." "BOPE was created to intervene when the conventional police can't handle things." "And in Rio de Janeiro, that happens all the time." "Knife to the skull and nothing in the wallet." "My name is Cap." "Nascimento and I led the alpha team in BOPE." "I had been in that war a long time and I was starting to get tired of it." "Elite troop, bone hard to gnaw" "Takes on one, takes on all, And will take you on too." "Elite troop, bone hard to gnaw" "Takes on one, takes on all, And will take you on too." "Elite troop, bone hard to gnaw" "Takes on one, takes on all, And will take you on too." "Elite troop, bone hard to gnaw" "Takes on one, takes on all, And will take you on too." "Will take you on too." "Fooling around?" "Honey, I wanted to be there with you too" "But I'm working here" "You can here his heart there?" "Put it on so I can hear it" "Wow, it beats real hard, eh?" "Fast, too, eh?" "Honey, I gotta hang up, it's 'cos I'm working here" "No, don't worry, I'll warm it in the microwave when I get home" "No problem" "To end the war in this city, the only way is to disarm the traffic." "Bullseye, captain!" "That is why the main objective of BOPE is not to arrest dealers, but to aprehend weapons." "Brought the stuff?" "Brought it!" "Bring it" "OK" "In my days, the police had 30.000 men undertrained, underpaid and with a gun in the hand." "BOPE had only 100 men." "Shit, what'd I give to gun down these sons of bitches." "Which one, captain?" "Just say the word." "These shitty conventionals." "For each gun we aprehended three more turned up in its place." "Fourteen, let's let these guys complete their drop then Renan traps them down below." "I've lost count of how many times I pulled allnighters at the slum because of crooked conventionals." "Zero-one, I can make two for the price of one here." "That's 100%, fourteen?" "Skull, captain." "Pedal to the metal." "To me, those who help drug dealers to get arms is accomplice to them." "Yes, my friend, I have to admit I was running on a short temper." "And my life was getting ever more complicated." "Morning" "Morning, my love." "Let me get it..." "Hold there love." "I've set the table for you" "Sit down" "I have to go now..." "I have to be early at the Batallion" "Dammit, Beto, you came late yesterday Now you leave in a hurry?" "I had a bad night of sleep." "You ok?" "Is the baby ok?" "No way it could be ok, I'm always waiting" "I get nervous, he ends up feeling it" "He has already not gained any weight last time, right?" "What do you want me to do?" "You want me to stop working?" "If I'd known you were not gonna leave I'd not have become pregnant." "War always takes its toll" "And when the toll gets too high..." "It's time to ask for the check." "Wait, baby!" "Take some bread..." "Beto!" "If you let the moment pass by you may lose the last opportunity to get out in one piece." "I needed a replacement." "But it is not easy to become Captain of BOPE" "And to find someone honest, brave and with the mind and heard of a policeman to take my place" "Was nearly impossible." "Cap." "Fábio, Chief of Maintenance and comander of the first company." "Cap." "Oliveira, Chief of the third District." "When the guy is idealist and studies three years to join the force" "The first day at work makes some impression" "But with time, most candidate officers get disillusioned" "Candies, welcome" "Do not forget that from this moment on" "You find yourselves in probational period" "And will be evaluated on a daily basis by myself and my joint staff" "I want you to know that this team of officers, which I am honored to command" "Asides from being a great family" "Is one of the best in the core" "Estevão, allocate the candies to their functions" "Yes, sir, colonel!" "I did not know Matias and Neto" "And I still didn't know that I would need the brains of one... and the heart of the other." "If I could have put the two together this story would be different" "It wouldn't be hard to quit the BOPE" "But who said life is easy?" "Candy, this is where you will work." "This is the garage?" "Yes, it is, why?" "Anything wrong?" "Look sir, can't I ask to be allocated somewhere else?" "I don't know anything about cars, really" "Candy, listen up, it's 46 cars and 12 bikes." "Your job is to make this whole shit work, Neto!" "Captain!" "At ease!" "These two here are your staff" "Cool?" "Chief, 249, 'til the end of the day will be rolling as promissed" "At long last, right, Tião?" "Captain, but the new parts you ordered didn't arrive, y'know?" "I'm taking out the gearbox from this one here" "It's just in." "It's new." "Just because the windshield is cracked?" "It's cracked, I know, but check it out... we're going to use the starter, gearbox..." "Ok, Tião, I don't wanna hear no more of this crap" "This cock is no longer mine This cock is candy's here" "At ease" "At ease yourself, sir." "Bread and baloney, there's coffee too." "...and cold water, everything's cool." "I'm not hungry, no" "Let's get to work around here 'cos I want this car rolling by the end of the day." "Move it" "With no parts?" "Sir, you'd better talk about this with Cap." "Fábio, you know?" "He's the one who knows how to order parts and stuff" "Fine, but enough with the chitchat and fooling around now" "And let's get to work because I'm not into staying here the whole day" "Let's move it Get cracking" "Put this bread down, let's get to work." "Lieutenant, sir, with no parts..." "I don't care, corporal Tião." "Let's start to work around here" "Neto was an impulsive guy who acted before thinking" "While Matias thought too much before he acted." "You see that stack of paper?" "Each of those sheets, one report, one crime that the police didn't prevent" "In Neto's hands, they'd turn into a bonfire." "In Matias hands, they'd turn into statistics." "This is candidate official Matias He will work with you two from today on" " How's it going, chief?" " Candy, these two here will be your staff" "Corporal Bruno and soldier Machado" "Your job is to look after the usage of the radios devices" "And compile the records, understood?" "Yes, sir" "Your desk is that one" "Sorry chief" "Any problem you just look me up good work to you all" "Neither of them was up to my standards" "But one of them was gonna have to replace me" "Right, right, class." "So these are the books that will serve as theme..." "Matias was intelligent and dedicated" "In Brazil, a guy that is born poor and black... doesn't have much of chance in life" "First you have to form a group, a group of four" "Only then, you get to choose one of these..." "Let's make it happen, I want to do the Foucault one, that ok?" " It's all the same to me" " The three of us, we need one more..." "But Matias managed to get into the best Law school in Rio de Janeiro" "Got a group?" "Yep" "In his head, going to Law school had everything to do with being a cop" "For him, the policeman and the lawyer had the same mission in life" "They had to uphold the Law" "No, I'm going to give to him just like this He won't even notice" "But hey, let's at least form a group" "He won't even notice" "He won't notice?" "He won't notice, Beta!" "I'm positive" "Is this the sociology class?" "What's your name?" " André!" " André what?" " André Matias, why?" " You are in our group for Foucault, ok?" " What do you mean, Foucault?" " I'll tell you a bit" "Matias' head was in some ideal world far from the reality of Rio de Janeiro" " Hi, how d'you do?" "I'm Maria!" " Pleasure." "This here is Dudu, Roberta We're doing the assignment on Foucault." "And to become officer in the BOPE the guy has to know his footing" "You're aware you're doing Foucault, right?" "Matias had a lot to learn." "The girl wanted to do Foucault too..." "This fellow here visiting that is coming to visit Rio I think you all know who he is, right?" "What you don't know is that he will be sleeping at the archbishop's which is located here at the Hill of Turano and it is up to us to ensure he gets his Heavenly sleep." " You're bullshitting us." " I'm serious." "Turano at war, and the Pope wants to sleep at the top of it?" "Damn, I'll pay a hotel for him in Copacabana." "I've spent a month trying to convince the Secretary of Security but not even God will change the Pope's schedule he will be sleeping there and that's it, got it?" "And there is one more thing, we have three months to try and pacify Turano." "What we are going to do is raid it daily, that's it." "No, colonel, you have to forgive me!" "But, do you agree with daily incursions?" "Is that it?" "We are raiding at night, without the advantage of surprise?" "We're going up under gunfire?" "People are gonna die, colonel!" "Nascimento!" "This is going to happen and it starts tomorrow, am I clear?" " Yes, sir." " Dismissed." "I know the Pope is not to blame for my problems," "But he'd come to Rio de Janeiro twice before," "Couldn't he tell what it's like here by now?" "Of course no politician wants to see the Pope shot in his city." "And if the Pope wants to stay by the slums," "What do you think the governor is going to do about it?" "Take the chance that some random bullet finds its way to his holy head?" "Of course not." "He'll call the BOPE." "Damn, Neto." "Enough with this shit, bro." "I'm studying, man" "Stop studying for a change, ok bro?" "Let's go for a ride!" "Do you need the car tomorrow?" "Why do you want my car?" "I'm going to the Hill of Prazeres." "You're out of your mind, what the fuck are gonna do in a slum?" "Guys from college set up to do some assignment at some ONG there." "I have to go." "You're a cop, dude." "You can't just go up a slum." "People will kill you in there." "Do the damn assignment alone, figure it out." "Be cool, Neto." "Nobody at college knows I'm a policeman." "Watch out, he!" "The Pope needed the BOPE." "The BOPE needed me." "And I needed a substitute." "It was not going to be easy." "I had to keep going up slums because of the Pope." "But I was going up packing, partner." "And with a black uniform." "The danger for a cop to go to college is that at first sight," "Students are really great dudes..." "And there are plenty of cute girls full of good intentions..." "Hi, André, everything cool?" "Thanks for coming." "Pleasure!" "This is Rose, this is Elienas..." "This one is much cuter, the rest is kinda bland, y'know." " Hey, you're pretty sassy, ain't you Rose?" " Baby, they're in need of this!" "Don't you stare, right, darling!" "Enjoy it!" "Sorry I made you come all the way here, André" "But it's just we are crammed with work" " Let's go?" " Sure, let's go, sure!" "This is the administration room." "And this here is Rodrigues." "Rodrigues, André!" "He helps me run the ONG and he is the representative of our sponsor here in the comunity and asides all that, a big friend of mine." " Have you got a candidate for the Senate?" " No, no I don't." "Now you do, Senator Magalhães, here." ""451" - take another one to give your friends, here another one..." ""451", don't forget, 5-4=1 4+1=5, "451"." "I admit that at first glance it's hard to resist." "Rich students like to help poor children," "And who doesn't feel sorry for poor children?" " This here is André." " Hey there big boy, how's it going?" " Great!" " Nice to meet you!" " Missy, are we going to the arcade today?" " Today Missy can't go to the arcade..." "I have some homework to do, and don't you have any, do you?" "I do, but I'll do it later." "Who was it that promised me he'd study?" "Matias was inexperienced and had a soft heart." "It was natural that he'd let himself get sucked in." " Having a hard time at school?" " He's not doing so well, no." "But have you looked into why?" "He doesn't want to study, André." "Maybe it isn't that." "But a policeman can only get involved up to a certain point." "He has to know how to draw the line when the time comes." "And then I read that, to Foucault, the penal right is a manifestation of the relationships of power right?" "And that in reality there is no social contract at all got it?" "And that the State always administrates inst... institutions... eh... tough word... institutions to discipline and punish... the criminals got it?" "Like the Panopticon of Bertham, that prison of that period which..." " Which we've already studied." " Totally out there." "To Foucault, the historical analysis of these instituitions reveals how the State..." " Hey, André!" " No thanks, Roberta, I don't like it, no, thanks." " Just a tiny hit, André, c'mon!" " No, thanks." " Relax!" " Gimme here, Beta, I want it." "... which is exactly what Gusmão asked us." " This is totally awesome!" " Totally awesome..." " The paper is supercool, André." "If the guy is not carefulhe ends up seduced by the classmates." "The right thing to do was Matias to call it in and bring the potheads down under article 12 of law 6368" "Policemen must uphold the law." "Let's start it all over!" "Matias had just started at college and was already cutting his buddies slack ...we could wrap it up somehow and throw it to the crowd, and then..." "I think our paper turned out really good" "Romerito!" "Romerito!" "Didn't you say you were going home to study?" "So what?" "Cross-eye!" "..." "If he didn't watch out, he'd end up turning into one of them" "Wait up, people!" "Just a sec!" " Can I have your hand?" " What are you gonna do?" "I think these kids are right, y'know?" "Cool it, people..." "look away, kid, look the other way." "Come on, big boy!" "Let's see if you're smart, uh!" " Which letter is this?" " This is A." "Great!" "You got it!" " And now, which letter is this one?" " I don't see it!" "Which is it?" " It's an A too." " A?" "It's an A too..." "He has poor eyesight, hadn't you notice it yet?" "No, that must be why he's been getting bad grades." "When I was his age I had the same problem." " Come, should we go tell your mom?" " Yes!" " Come with us, André." " But where is it?" " Just over there, come." " Up there?" "To be captain of the BOPE, to take my place" "Matias would have to learn that you cannot forgive" "Drug scum does not forgive ...if I wear glasses?" " Make fun?" "No way..." "You'll get good grades at school, that's what's gonna happen." " Wassup, Tinho, cool?" " All clear, Igor?" " Hanging on, princess?" "I took that test..." " You did?" "And did you pass?" " Sure, piece o'cake." "Attaboy!" "See how it pays off to study?" "You can go up at ease, got it?" "The crowd here in the hill has social awareness." "You're at home." "Be cool." "Wassup, Lec?" "Cool?" "Bye, Roberta, keep it up." "Use glasses too..." " Maria" " What, André" " I have to go." " So soon, André?" "I have to return a car to a friend of mine soon" "Neto, you haven't met him yet" "What a pity." "Ok, then." "Regarding big boy here's glasses, leave it to me" "I'll take him to the doctor..." " I make a point of taking him." " What do you mean, André, that's unnecessary." " We look after this stuff at the NGO" " This was done for me when I was little" "I make a point of doing it for him too, It's a matter of honor." " Ok?" "Good." " Ok." "Be seeing ya" "I'll be back another day to meet you're mom, alright?" "That's a promise, then, right?" " Bye, bye!" " Bye!" "He'd arrive there wearing glasses, so hot!" " Wassup, Baiano!" " Whatthefuck, brother!" "Baiano was the guy who ruled the slum of the NGO" "Wassup, Lombada?" "Anything new?" "I know how Baiano's story ends But I do not know how it begins" "He must have had some fucked up childhood" "Joining the drug traffic must have been the guys only choice" "From what I see some snow has fallen on this mountain, right?" " Man, the stuff is good." " So, white boy, what's cooking?" " Here, this is cooking." " Hey, neat!" "Watch out, Xuxa!" "Xaveco, bring two over!" "What fucks me crippled is how a guy that is born with opportunities ends up like this" "Thanks" "I've said this before but it's never too much" "To me, he who helps the traffic is accomplice to it" "Has to go to jail" "Hey, dude, alrighty kiddo?" "Hey, brother!" "Coolness?" "Bruno!" "Cool?" "Cool, man?" "Hi" "Say what, dude?" "Hey you, Tadeu, cool?" "Marcinho, I got some stuff here, bro." " Say, bro, cool?" "Say, cool?" "Come in!" "Hi, Paty!" "Cool?" "Excuse me!" "Excuse me!" "Excuse me!" "Just a minute, bro!" "Come!" "Come!" "Where is it?" " It's here, brother, here, check it out!" " Lemme see it." " How much is in here?" " Two." "That's it?" "Dammit, bro, d'you think it's so easy to get good shit without paying in advance, bro?" "Ok!" "Bring in more." "Right!" "Come here!" "Check this out." "There's two grand here." "Put it away!" "If you get more of this stuff bring it in because people are buying it by the lot." "I always ask myself how many children do we have to forfeit to the traffic just so some spoiled kid gets to smoke his joint?" "The priority is to aprehend the rifles." "We will work using channel two" "Azevedo will go with his team through the entrance in the bishop's house" "Renan and Barcelos will go up Almirante Tamandaré" "Yes, sir." "Nascimento, do you know the entrance at 117?" "Cap." "Nascimento, do you know the entrance at 117?" "I do, captain!" "Then, Nascimento, you take your team up the alley but be careful." "The entrance at 117 is just by the college, it's packed with students." "I'm aware, Carvalho!" "I've warned y'all this is gonna go bad." "Nascimento, orders are orders." "Everyone, we converge to the plaza of Raia in the center of the compound." "Everything crystal?" " Skull!" "To me, strategy only makes sense if the mission makes sense" "The operation for the Pope was just stupid" "Under normal circumstances, I'd just be pissed off, but my son was about to be born." "I couldn't afford to slip." "I didn't want to die like that." "Down, down, down, dammit!" "On the ground!" "Are you dumb!" "On the ground, damn!" " Everything ok?" " Where's the "steam"?" " No one escaped, no." " Where is the steam?" "No one escaped, no." "The steam is over there." "Line everyone over here in front of me." "Sit over there!" "I'm going to ask only once." "Who had the package?" " No one here, no sir!" " Who had the package?" " Who had the package?" " I don't know!" " Who had the package?" " I'm a student." "You're a what?" " I'm a student." " You're a student?" "Ahh... he's a student..." "that explains everything..." "Put your face here!" "Put your face there!" "Do you see this?" "Do you see this hole here?" " Who killed this guy here?" " I didn't see." " You didn't see?" " I didn't see." "You saw!" "Who killed him?" "Go ahead, say it" "Say it, say it, say it!" "Who killed him?" "It was one of you." "One of you my hairy cock!" "This guy here was killed by you!" "You cocksucker, it is you who finances this shitdump here" "You pothead!" "You shit!" "We come up here to undo the shit that you do!" "It is you who finances this shit, you cocksucker!" "Who had the package?" "Zero-seven!" "Bring the little seed of evil." "Let's see!" "Let's see now, come here." "Let's see now." "Talk, now!" "Talk!" "Point him out now!" " Who had the package?" " He won't point, no, pull the trigger!" "Which is it?" "This here in the jacket?" " It is you then, son of a bitch!" " No it ain't me no!" " Zero-four!" "Zero-four..." " What should I do with him?" "Bring him to the station with the package." "You're lucky, right, fuckface!" "I'm not kidding here in this shitdump, damn you, get moving!" "Get moving, fuckface!" "Right, prick, move!" "Well, professor, we conclude, then, that in Brazil... the penal legislation works as a network that articulates several repressive institutions of the State and that unfortunately, in our country, today the result of this micro-relationship of power that Foucault talks so much about ended up creating a State that protects the rich and punishes almost exclusively the poor." " Well done, "Finito"?" " That's it." "I think Maria and the whole group have spoken very clearly how the relationships of power, and not only the State shape perverted institutions." "Now, to wrap it up, we could do a case study that is to say an example of one such institution." " The police?" " The police, very good." "But why, the police?" "Professor, because everybody knows that in the slum the "cops" really come in hot, y'know?" "They just come laying it in, total violence!" "Edu is right, the police act perversely against the dispossessed, the bestialized and those that due to their condition, are compelled to commit infractions." "Gusmão, I wanna say something." "Say it." "I do, in fact, actually agree with Edu's opinion, in part." "But I think the police don't act perversely... just with the least favoured classes" "I think that we, middle class, upper class, are victims of these brigands too" "Once myself, Maria and Natália, we were going to Búzios and we were pulled over at a road block the guys were totally agressive with use, pointing guns" "But they didn't hit you, did they?" "That was the next step..." "But they pointed guns" "Wait, calm down!" "People, calm!" "Easy!" "Go on, speak." "My father, he is a judge" "He says that in the poor suburbs, torture is little of what the police do" "Police go in there and kills rampant, Like the slaughter at Candelária" "Logical, 'cos more than crooked, the guys are cowards, there's that too" "But you can say it's just with the poor..." "People, easy!" "Everybody gets to talk, just a minute now Matias, he's waiting, he rose his hand, go ahead Matias!" "So, Gusmão, here's the thing..." "I think people here have a very superficial opinion of how things are..." "They are very badly informed..." " Wait, people!" "You are very badly informed, got it?" "Let him talk, people" "I do believe there may be corruption in the police" "But the large majority of policemen are there to do honest work" " Honest?" "Are you crazy, brother?" "Policemen are madmen, André There is no such thing" "Dudu is right!" "Who has never been pulled over like we were on the way to Búzios?" "Everybody, happens all the time It's routine, André" " The guys are just raising funds" " No, it is not like that, no!" "They are corrupt and Dudu is right when he says it" "What I hear in the interviews at the NGO is just that" "First they shoot and only then" " ...figure out who is who" " No, it is not like that, no!" " Gusmão, can I finish what I was saying?" " Just for the sake of order Let us let him finish, ok?" "It's the least, ok?" "What it true fact is this I have a great friend who is a policemen, got it?" "And his best friend is a policemen too" "And both are squeaky honest, got it?" "And regarding this Búzios thing I think they are right to repress, got it?" "Should be repressed, man!" "Of course!" " Should be repressed, you don't..." " We weren't doing anything, André" "Oh really, dude?" "You had a joint with you, didn't you?" "You people have lost any clue as to how many children are coopted by the drug trade because of pot and coke, ok?" "From you nice flat here in the rich neighbour, you don't get to witness this sad reality, do you?" "You are all badly informed, very pooly influenced by your intelectual newspapers and television" "Well..." "I think we should call it for today..." "Dr. Nascimento, right?" "Was it you at the last operation at the hill?" "It was" "I came here to ask you for the right to bury my son" "Mrs. Regiane, your son belonged to the movement?" "He did, yes sir." "He was rocketeer." "We did not kill your son." "But you let him go, didn't you?" "Do you think they would forgive?" "Drug dealers kill rocketeers who screw up and deep down I knew that" "The rocketeer's mother made me feel remorse" "And for an officer of BOPE, that is a dangerous feeling" " Was he your only son?" " He was, yes sir." "IrealizedRosanewas right" "Anditwasalreadypast thetime to put someone in my place" " Engine wedge, what else?" " Battery..." " Battery!" " Carburator for Santana, Lieutanant!" "Hoa, wait up, Tião!" "Let the guy finish here, dammit!" " Brake discs..." " Brake discs." " Breastplate, collar and the broken windshield" " Lieutenant, the carburator for a the Santana, 518." " Yeah, right, 518, Santana carburator." " Yes sir!" "Listen up!" " Carburator for 518?" "This 518 is new these new Santana are all electronic injection, brother?" " What about electronic injection?" " You crazy, nigger?" "There ain't no carburator!" "Is there or isn't there a carburator in this piece of junk?" " There is no carburator, this is electronic injection." "Listen to the engine, Lieutenant, there is your carburator, right there." "There is no carburator, this car's been in just two months..." " Dammit, are you fucking with me?" " I'm not fucking with nobody, no!" " Dammit partner, your fucking with me." " There is no carburator" " Man, there is a carburator!" "Cramm, there is a carburator!" "Look at the carburator here." "Is there or isn't there a carburator?" "There is a carburator, yes sir!" "There is a carburator, yes Lieutenant." "There is a carburator, but this engine is not original, it was swapped" "Look here, look..." "Loose wedge, Everything loose here." "Everything." "What do you mean it was swapped?" "One garrison, sold this new engine and put this in..." " Which garrisson the fuck swapped it, Tião?" " Heck if I know, Lieutenant!" "Don't get worked up on that There's nothing to it" "Just the other day here in the Barracks... someone snooped the radio from Cap." "Salgado's..." "Nothing to it?" "Have you totally lost it, dammit?" "Burglary inside the Barracks is military crime" " Military crime..." " Yep" " Are you listening to me, dammit?" " We're swapping this engine, right?" " Fuck and fuck and fuck, bro..." "Netohadthepoliceinhisheart" "Hewantedto solvethe problems of the Batallion" "But to join the BOPE, the guy can't be naive" "Neto still needed to learn that to be a serious policeman in Rio de Janeiro, buddy, ain't easy" " I've got a problem, someone swapped..." " I'm in a hurry, speak up!" "Someone swapped the engine of a new Santana for the one of some old Belina and I'm sure it was some of the garrisons in these Barracks." " Have you figured out who?" " No but I thought you might..." "File a complaint, I'll ask the Commander to open an internal investigation and name you head of it" " Me, sir?" " Yeah, you!" "But, sir, I have a bunch of cars out of service here" "I need to get new parts..." "Listen, pay attention, don't you let the Commander's car break down, got it?" "He's asked me to pay special attention to that crap" "Yes, sir." " Captain..." " Speak candidate..." "The missing parts" "Fuck, brother!" "Shitloads of parts, eh?" "I'll look after it for you, leave it to me." "But go ahead and talk to Fábio maybe he can help and find something for you in the streets." " Can't you help me too?" " Dismissed." "Nopointin punchingthe tip of the knife" "To sort out the wrong inside the military police, you go through the system" "And MP batallions have been abandoned by the public security policies." "Without corruption, without the brazilian "way-to-get-it-done" the police stops from lack of maintenance" "Ok Candy, I'll put you in the scheme, but pay attention..." "You are not in this alone, got it?" "Captain, all I want is to get these patrol cars out there" "Because I don't want to stay in this garage, no way" "I didn't join the police to stay in the garages, no, dammit!" "Paulo, you're slow like this, what for, bro?" "You are headed headed up you're shit chute, brother, go your fucking way!" "First theft is always for a good cause" "But he who bends for his batallion, will bend for his family too" "That is the system's logic" "That is why a citizen wants a patrol car in front of his bakery or in front of his bar he has to pay" " What do you mean "can't do", godfather?" "I came here to collect my dues" "You are not closing the registers today?" "Close them I will, Captain." "But I've payed my dues for the day." "Payed your dues?" "You payed me nothing, partner!" "Look at the guys arriving over there I payed Oliveira" "Oliveira?" "If I have to pay you a second time" "I'll have to close the doors of my business" "You're going to break me?" "You're breaking me like this, partner!" "I'm keeping this place safe for you" "And you go and give money to Oliveira?" "Sort it out with him, you are all from the same household, Captain!" " Sort it out yourselves" " Let's go, Neto!" " How much for his beer?" " That's nothing" " What's that, nothing?" "What?" " Keep cool" " I insist in paying" "Here have it!" "Isn't the police's business to protect?" "So, the system transformed protection into a business" "Now: those who charge to uphold the law" "Also charge to cut it loose, ain't that so?" "Look!" "The guy's writting my customers off, brother!" "There's even a towtruck in this shit!" "I can't help you like this, no way!" " How gave this fucking order?" " Fuck if I know, man!" " At least give me something, some spare part, anything..." " Who gave this order, dammit?" " I don't now, brother!" "Look at tiny over there writing everybody off!" "Hey, buzzer!" "Buzzer!" "Fly over!" " Everything ok, captain?" " Ok my fat cock!" "Over here!" "Buzzer!" "What the fuck!" "So, Buzzer?" "What the fuck is this?" "You're writing everyone off, brought the tow truck and the shit" "This is my turf, You just can't bro," "And Ademar is friends with the Batallion, dammit!" "Captain, don't take me wrong I'm following orders" " Orders from whom?" " From Bira" " Who is this Bira?" " Bira, dammit!" " Bira, Bira, come here!" " Can't now" "The system occupies every space" "The government was so fucked up that it had no money to buy tow trucks for the police ...decided to outsource and pay per towed car" "The system took advantage" "Hold it, dammit!" "I told you to stop it" "Every captain bought his own tow truck and started towing away" "What is this shit?" "You can't do it here, brother!" "Just a second Captain, this truck is Oliveira's" "I have him on the phone, you sort it out For me it's all the same" " This Oliveira is getting..." " Talk to him about those spare parts" "Chill it, ok, I'll talk" "Hello." "Hello." "Look Oliveira, this is Cap." "Fábio, I'm here at the garage of Ademar to pick up my stuff, and he says you own the place" "Colonel, it's Fábio, he wants to make a scene" "He's messing our scheme with the tow trucks" "Clip his fretty wings" "Go home 'cos this is my turf" "I call the shot there" "You call the shots?" " I rule this shithole" " You rule the shit here?" " Ask about my spare parts" " I'll ask, dammit!" " Dammit, my parts, captain" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Son of a bitch hung up in my face, brother!" " And about my parts?" " Let's go." " Dammit, Fabinho..." " Ah, I don't know." "I get you the battery, but you fix this mess for me, man" "Fine, gents, Captain." "So, buzzer?" "Say, Captain, isn't that the Commander's bike?" "Fridays the bike comes over to take the gambling grease" "I told you the Commander's bike cannot stay in the shop" "It cannot go down, otherwise they can't get the gambling money" "Fuck, now I get the gist of this shit!" "And more, before we'd split the money" "Now it's just the Commander's gang We stay in the shit" "The system has no limits, no boundaries" "It has become part of the culture of the police" "This Commander is fucking everyone silly" "Even you, Paulo?" "Sergeant, since last year I've been scheduled to go on vacation next month and my wife finally got approval from the county and she will be able to take vacations along with me next month" "Great!" "So, I just wanted you to publish this in the bulletin so I can take my vacation." "Yes, here is the thing, soldier." "To make it into the bulletin it's tough because I have 40 people here in front of you, 8 on vacation and the batallion cannot go under a minimum contingent" "Now, maybe, I can give the Major a hint" "And we see how it turns out, right?" "Because here we have a rather strict procedure, you see?" "But, Sergeant Rocha, what I'm asking for is my right" "I haven't taken vacations in four years, sergeant!" "It is just you publish what was already agreed upon" "I could even help you, better yet, I will help you, alright?" "I want to help you!" "Now you have to help me help you" "Soldier Paulo..." "If you want to laugh you have to make people laugh" "Right, Pantoja?" "Got it?" "Gotta make people laugh, man!" "Got it, sergeant." "Got it, sir." " Permission to leave, sergeant." " Permission granted, soldier." "Sir, I don't know nothing of cars." "Can't you allocate me to the operations in the slums?" "You've just arrived in the batallion and want to be transfered already, Neto?" "No, I don't want to be transfered, sir." "I just want to be able to really help" "I'm a got shot" "Well... candy, if you manage to get 70% of those cars which are all down at the yard then I'll think about it, alright?" " But sir, I..." " Dismissed." "The system drives policemen crazy" "And in this, sadly, BOBO is not that different from the MP" "Hi, love, are you going up or not?" "Love, is everything alright?" "Are you feeling bad, love?" "Beto!" "Beto!" " Hi, everything alright?" " huh huh, ok!" " Ok, really?" " huh huh!" "Fuck, I'm feeling really shitty" "Calm down, my love!" " Calm down, it's not the heart." " My arm is all numb." "Beto, it's not the heart, it's stress, trust me, it is not" "Dammit, Nascimento, your exams are perfect" "Let's see this shit through, ok, Madera?" "No, it's all fine!" "There nothing but cardiacs in my family, dammit!" "Dad died from heart attack" "Dude, your heart is like iron" "Sometimes, I'm quiet and start hearing a buzz in the ear" "The hands start shaking, man!" "Your problem is emotional, Nascimento, not physical." "This is... you..." "Madera!" "You are under great stress I'm going to send you to psychiatry" "Psychiatry, Madera?" "What the hell is this, Madera?" "Doesn't hurt, Beto." "In the police, those who do their jobs always get screwed one way or another" "Matias worked two months to trace the crime of the neighborhood took the reports and made a map of the crime" "It was just for command to put patrol cars at the right places... and done, the citizen is protected" "But the police don't work that way" "The police rely on the system and the system doesn't work to solve the problems of society" "The system works to solve the problems of the system" "Dammit, Estevão, this report is going to fuck me up" "Twelve homicides in a month" "How am I going to present this report higher up?" "Well, colonel, I supervised the work of the candidate and to me, the report is accurate" " Sir, I'm sure the report..." " Candy, are you fucking with me?" " No sir" " Get Fábio, will you?" "Go, sonny, go, go!" "He's gonna have to explain these four corpses at Tabajara" "Colonel, this report is founded on statistics..." " Didn't you see the map?" " Do I care about numerology?" "This nobody want to teach me where I should place my patrol cars" "When a crime happens in the vicinity of a batallion, the one responsible must go after it" "But going after it is too much work" "Colonel, you sent for me?" "I did" " Any problem?" " Lots of them" "I want to know what is the meaning of these four corpses found here at Tabajara" "It's not my fault, I did just like you told me to..." "Zero tide, zero tide, negative on the corpses in the area one-niner tide." "Corpses, according to intel, are the area of two tide" "It is easier to change the crime scene location than locating the criminal" "There are plenty of shameless commanders who reduce the criminality dumping corpses in the areas of other batallions." "But at the MP, partner, people don't sleep on the job!" "Zero tide, the corpses are in the area of one-niner tide, roger." "Those sons of bitches, colonel!" "I get the bodies, I dump them there" "They dump here, I dump there, they dump here, it's the meat war" "I don't wanna know, it is a solution you gotta solve" " We understood?" " Yes sir." "Candy, you will rewrite this report" "Look here, look." "Body found at the beach" "Death at the beach, sonny, is called drowning" "But commander, the body had a hole in it" " You're a coroner now?" " No sir." "Monday, I want a new report here on my desk." "Because this one here, never existed." " Dismissed." " Permission to leave, sir." "I too tried to change the conventional MP and my plans went down the drain too" "If you don't say anything it will be hard to help" "I know, because it is hard to talk, you know?" "Even more since I'm not sure whether..." "Whether all this I'm to say, whether you will have to report to my superiors, right?" "Because if you will, I would rather talk about a friend of mine who's becoming father and is going through problems at work" "I can only answer you question if I really know what is your problem." "Besides, this is not a confessionary." "This is the psychiatry office of the military police." "But between us two, ok, Captain?" "Just imagine if I had to report everything I hear in this room to my seniors?" "There would be no more police in Rio." "So you make up your mind, if you want to talk or not" "Excuse me" "Nascimento, once I can I will find a substitute" "Colonel..." "Captain, I need you in the Pope mission" "To me, mission assigned is mission accomplished" " Are we clear?" " Yes sir." "You may go." "It was fate's irony" "The very day I lost hope of leaving the BOPE, ...began a story that would change the lives of many people for better and for worse." " so, Neto?" " Took your time, eh?" "Got the keys to my care there?" "Brother, your fucking with me, aren't you?" "You're screwing up the fucking map, man!" "I figured out how to leave that junkyard" "Come with me that I have to explain the plan to Fábio" "Let's go!" " Dammit!" "What plan, brother?" " Come with me!" "Fucking shit, this guy is crazy, man!" "...I'm in that fucking stinking garage" "Fuck, I work my ass off, brother!" "You two complain too much, partner!" "I'm the one taking the shit in the batallion because of that commander." "What do you mean, Fábio?" "Taking the shit?" "The guy cut all my schemes, Matias!" "Not even the nightclub money, I don't get anymore" "I'm fucked up and with no cash, partner!" "There's Oliveira, there, the son of a bitch there!" "O come on, man?" "You took money from this club here too?" "Look Neto, I have a family, partner!" "I make 500 a month" "Do you think that I'm going up the hills to get shot by scum because of 500 bucks?" "What is this scheme of yours, brother?" "You got money from this club here, man?" "This scheme was honest, the SOB is commander - yes, honest, honest..." "Who went up the hill to get money from the drug lords was the commander" "You fucking kidding?" "The man goes up the hill... to take money, brother?" "Neto, you are one fine angel, brother!" "Don't you see that it is only the commander's car that goes up the hill every week?" "Do you think he does anything for free?" "He goes there to take the grease from the traffic." "And how much did he take from the gabling down there?" "Some six grand a week." "That back in my day." "Nowadays should be much more." " Six grand a week?" " Six grand a week is a shitload." "The SOB should be making shitloads of money." "Here is the deal." "I have a scheme for us to take this money, Fábio." "What scheme?" " Tell me, how much to I get out of it?" " What do you mean?" "How much do you make?" "How much do I make?" "Ah, you are keeping it all for yourselves?" "Money?" "Nobody is keeping any money." "This money is for the missing parts for the patrol cars, I'm fixing that whole shit because I don't want to stay there forever, dummy!" "I got that, I want to know what is left for me." " Don't you want to screw the colonel?" " You are making fun of me." " What is it, Fábio?" " You are trying to fuck me up!" "Know what?" "I need to take a piss, I'm urinating." "You stay here and do your clown shit" "You want some honesty?" "Stay, stay!" "What is it, buddy?" "Fuck!" "You're not pulling out on this shit, right, André?" "Look at me, buddy!" "I have to admit that Neto's plan ...washed clean the soul of every good cop in the core" "Everything was calculated, it took some forty minutes for Matias to pick up the gabling money" "The biggest grease from Colonel Atalio's" "And that is where Neto came in" "So, Tião?" "Give it some juice, see if it starts" " Get it done, quick, I'm late already!" " Leave it to me, Lieutenant." "He's late, eh!" "Soon the commander will be here and I'm the one in trouble" "Hey bro, want it soft then chew on water." " You asshole" " Hey, now it will work" "Will it?" "Will it now?" "I was supposed to be out, Tião." "Come on!" "The carb's valve shut in." "Call Paulo once and for all and get this over with." "When Neto discharged the bike, Matias had already made the pickup" " Great Sardine, that is the man!" " Howdy, Santos!" " So, feeling better?" " Better from what?" "Your comrade came by and said you were all fucked up" "Me fucked up?" "Yeah!" "I even gave him the money." "What comrade, Sardine?" "Your comrade came by on the colonel's behalf" "I gave him the money" "Fucking holy shit!" "The son of a bitch!" "It was genius" "No..." "Come over here." "What was the colonel to do?" "Call the police?" "Straight!" "Straight!" "Neto used the system against the system" "It was brilliant and at the same time fucking stupid" " It's ten cars out there now, Matias!" " What took you!" "The system wouldn't let it be" "But Neto at least tried to fix things" "Matias was insisting on the flaw" " Pay attention!" " There's André, let's go talk to him." " No, I've some stuff to do." " I'm going down too." " Ciau, guys!" " Keep it together!" " Kisses." " See ya." " Hey gasper." "What's up?" " Everything's good, Maria!" "You ok?" "Look there who's coming" " Now we're in deep shit" " Unbeliavable" " Hi everybody." "Everything ok?" " Mary" " Long live Maria!" " Everything ok?" " Where were you?" "We were just talking and lost track of time" "Oh beauty!" "You're so lucky!" " So you are just gonna sit there?" "That's it?" " We're drinking" "Let's go the two of us, let's go." "Ah, I'm gonna dance, we talk later." "We'll join you later on" "Just because we have a little flat at the rich quarters..." "Check it out, I'm going to tease that mother fucker, right now!" "Wait, look, don't go looking for trouble, ok!" "What d'you know." "There are people trying to get at me, right?" "Forget about it!" "Don't think about it." "Let's just keep on dancing." "They tell you to obey" "They tell you to answer" "They tell you to cooperate" "They tell you to respect" "Police, for those who need" "Police, for those who need police?" "Police, for those who need" "Police, for those who need police?" "Put some more potato to make it richer, understood?" "In the police, the system protects the corrupt" "The colonel could not complain about the theft of the gabling money" "But he could get revenge" "Matias became a cook" "And Neto fixed the cars but stayed in the garage" "Paulo, what the fuck are you doing here?" "Taking my vacation, Lieutenant, and learning not to complain of the sergeant." " And the garage, man?" " Well, there's Tião." "And lost his best mechanic" "Some sweets, sir?" "Dammit, Neto!" "I told you this shit was gonna get fucked up, eh?" "Their luck was that the colonel thought the candidates had been following orders" "Orders from someone who knew the insides of the system" " Fábio?" " Yes, sir." " You're supervising today, right?" " Yes, sir." "I want you to go check on a call about a funk dance party at the Hill of Babilônia" " Me, sir?" " Yeah." "Yes, sir." " Tonight." " Tonight?" " Tonight." "Dismissed." " Yes, sir." "As you wish." "With your excuse." "For this guy, the punishment would be much worse" "And that is where the story of Neto and Matias starts to converge with mine" "Love, it's moving a lot" "It looks like an alien but it's the most beautiful thing in the world" "Pity that you are not here." "Wait, I'll put it so you can hear his little heart" "Everytime I thought about my son I remembered the mother of the rocketeer" "It must be fucking hard not to be able to bury your son" "Big Mouth!" "Tell Gonçales to gear up that we're leaving." "Beto, Gonçales is in the shower room." " We're to, captain?" " We're going to Turano." "We're going to recover that rocketeer." "Look boys, the colonel asked me to check on some call about a funk dance party." "The hill is quiet, peachy." "If you do things right we may make something out of it." "But candy cannot know, because if he does he'll talk." " Don't worry, captain." " I'm ready, bro." "What the fuck is this, candy?" "You with a rifle in my..." "For the love of God, baby, don't you go fuck me up there." "Do things the right way, you're under my command, I'm in command" "Trust me, captain!" "It's alright, not a problem, nope." "No, no no, captain." "This garrison is already assigned to Cabral" "The colonel asked me to take it" "No, no, you go in his car with me!" "And you, candy!" "Drop that rifle and go look after the colonel's bike 'cos it's down" "Let's go, Fábio!" "Don't you just stay there." "Hey Neto, did you take the grease from the gambling den?" "Yes we did, sir." " Come, captain!" "It's party time, my friend!" " I'm coming!" "I think they are getting rid of me, Neto." "Matias, it's gone all fucked up, brother!" "What's up?" "What happened, man?" "The guys think it was Fábio who set it all up" "Come with me!" " Here, it's yours." " Hey, Lieutenant, lieutenant!" "Faith in God!" "DJ!" "We'll take them from above" "So, where to now?" "This alley here, see..." "Come on, come on!" "Down, down, down!" "Can you see Fabio?" "Hang on." "What are you seeing?" "Calm down, man!" " What do you see there, man?" "You won't be needing this." "You'll leave me unarmed?" "Let's go, man, let's go, shit!" "Shit, go!" "Can you see Fabio?" "Hang on." "Leave it to me." "What do you see, man?" "What are you seeing?" "Calm down, man!" "Wassup, Oliveira?" "Another night in the hood, right, buddy?" "What's up, kiddo?" "Where's the stuff?" "Fuck, who did you shoot, man?" "Let's go, man." "Fuck!" "what's this shooting, bro?" "Run!" "Run!" "Fuck, the MP's gone all crazy They're shooting one another" "Then shoot them too, dammit!" "Shit!" "Shoot the shit out of them, sons of bitches!" "Cover me!" "Shoot this shit!" " Do something..." " Only one round left, dammit..." "Fuck, there is no signal in this shithole" " Leave a message, Captain!" " Go fuck yourself, you shit!" "Deputy, for us it will be an honor to support your candidacy" "Now if Cabral here is promoted It is one more batallion" "And then things are much better" " How much better?" " One minute, if you please." " Hello?" "Colonel?" " What, Oliveira..." " Colonel, fuck, call the BOPE, colonel!" " What?" "Captain!" "There is a garrison traped at the Babilônia, it seems an officer was shot." "No team in the quarters, everybody at the Turano." " So what do I do?" " Fucking shit." "Nobody here is in a hurry, you hear me, sonny?" "I can stay here till the sun rises." "Where is the rocketeer?" " I don't know, no chief!" "Don't know no what?" "What is it you don't know?" "You're there planted with a gun, and you don't know where the rocketeer is?" "I'm just "steam", sir!" "I don't know..." "Then you go back in the bag" " He's out, captain." " Wake'im up, throw some water on his face." "Wake up, dammit!" "Wake up, dammit!" "Zero-one, priority at Babilônia Officer surrounded, sir." "Roger, Carvalho." "We are coming over." "It's shitty, the guys fuck up and we get to clean after" "Let's go to Babilônia" " What do I do with the worm here?" " Put him the Pope's tab." " I have children!" " Turn around." "Turn." "Turn, you worm!" "Don't stop, dammit!" "Now we're screwed!" "We're gonna die, man!" "Don't you come, you're fucked!" "Now we're screwed, brother!" "The guys are shooting from down there." "Calm down, from below they won't hit us." "Stay down, Matias!" "Stay down, dammit!" "Shoot!" "Shoot the fuckers!" "Shoot!" " The BOPE is here, let's go!" " Nobody is going up." "Nobody is going up." "Everybody is going to stay here nice and quiet." "Nobody is going up." "Fill the clips!" "Fill the clips!" "Go fuck yourself!" "They will fuck themselves!" "Shoot, son of a bitch!" " We are gonna die, Neto!" " Gonna die my ass, buddy!" "Squeeze that finger, brother!" "Squeeze them dead, dammit!" " My ammo is out, man!" " Then be quiet there, get down, dammit!" " Go ahead" " Fill them with lead, fuck!" "Fuck, the men are coming down, bro!" " I'm out of ammo, Neto!" " Fuck!" "Drop the weapon!" "Drop the weapon!" " We're MP!" " MP!" " MP!" " MP!" " Down!" "Down!" " Candidate, Matias!" "Out of the hole, sit here!" "Move it!" "Sit there!" "Zero-one, of our side it's just these two" "Hey, Big Mouth!" "Come check who's over there" " This is Marcinho, the king of the hill." " Let's bring him down." " Are you gentlemen alright?" " Yes sir." " Is either of you gentlemen wounded?" " No sir." " Have either of you gentlemen been shot?" " No sir." "Then today you gentlemen will learn to carry bodies." "Yes sir." "What are you gentlemen waiting for?" " Come, André!" " Yes, sir!" " Grab it, grab it." " Hold on, you can let go." "Hi love, it burst?" "You sure?" "Stay calm, and remember what Dr. Cláudia told us?" "That there is plenty of time, right?" "I'm coming down now, and I will meet you there, ok?" "Kiss!" " Zero-two!" " Speak out, zero-one!" "Take charge of the scene, let's go down with the king only 'cos my son is about to be born." "My son is about to be born." " My congratulations, captain." " Let's go, let's go." "Move it!" "Move it!" "Move it!" "Take the man down!" "Neto decided to join the BOPE because he liked war" "His dream was to fight crime in the slums of Rio" "And he saw that's what we did" "No weapon's staying behind, right?" "Matias came along because he was the policeman that believes in the law" "I'm cool, I'm cool, Cool down yourself!" "Hold it, brother." "Hold it." "This shit hurts like hell!" "If you don't come, candy, I was a gonner." "The guys were gonna kill me" "And your gun, the BOPE brought it" "Help us with the corpse, yo!" " This ain't making the news, pal!" " Excuse me, yo!" "A dead body here, yo!" " What is this, my friend?" "What is this?" "Get the fuck out of here, dammit!" " Sergeant." " Speak, candy." "Excuse me, how can I learn about you unit?" " Apply for the course, candy." " What course, sir?" " Instructions are published in the MP bulletin" " Yes sir!" "Neto knew what he was doing and Matias didn't" "Carvalho, I want you really smart on this subject, right?" " Leave it to me." " Sorry I'm late." " No problem." "Just tell me one thing..." "girl or boy?" " Boy." "Rafael." " Congratulations." "Dammit, what is this, Renato?" " This is conjunctivitis." " Fucking ugly shit!" " Just put the glasses on, will you." "Listen up." "This here is a gift." "But it is not for you." "It's for Rafael." "Out of this we'll get two names that will substitute you and you." "Holy Rafael!" "Colonel, I will coordinate the best course in the history of special operations" "You can rest assured." " Right." "Let's start." "Go on." "This zero-one, here, let's see, here, André Pedrosa..." " This is listed under gambling." " You sure?" " Positive." " Fine start." "This will become crunched number." " Colonel Olavo Carvelle, from my class..." " What about him?" " Scum up to his neck with slot machines" " Skull buble-gum" "We skipped this Fábio, I've heard of him" "Captain, right?" "Fabio Barbosa?" " Yeah!" "He's really dirty!" " Pimps the street whores in Copacabana" " Then leave him to me" "Renan, do you see anything at all, son?" " You look like an owl" " Blind skull" " Or Batman." " Come on, come on." " Renan, what of the candies?" " These are the two you rescued at the hill." "Colonel Estevão from 19th speaks highly of them" " Really?" " They started out well, eh?" "Well... here is the thing" "I don't want to hear of eardrum perforation on the first day" "I don't want to hear about cutting hand palms, is that clear?" "But the thing with the student's hand was an accident" "The student grabed the blade, the instructor pulled and cut his hand" " Now, the eardrum, Carvalho did..." " Was not on purpose, colonel!"

" Must've got to bed early then." " I guess." "Well, you know what they say." "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and can't get laid, huh?" "Maybe I'm not trying." "Yeah." "And look for me next month on the cover of Maxim." "I'll have nothing on but the vacuum." " Hey, you're up early." " Yes, Alan, I'm up early." "I went to bed early and I slept alone." "Anything else you wanna know?" "Was I this cranky when I wasn't having sex?" "No, you were more of a sullen whiner." " Okay, Huggy Bear, I gotta go." " Oh, all right, Kandi, have a good day." "Yo, Daisy Mae." "Just out of curiosity, when you leave here, where is it you go?" "To the gym." "I have to take care of my body because it's my instrument." "Mine too." "Three beers and a bratwurst and my ass turns into a French horn." "Really?" "Whenever I have beer and bratwurst I just fart a lot." "Okay." "Okay, Kandi, well, I'll see you tonight." "Bye, everybody." "Congratulations, Alan." "It looks like you've officially boinked her brains out." "Okay, so she's not overly sophisticated." "Sophisticated?" "She's two marbles rolling around in a tin can." "Hey, hey, she's got a great heart, she's warm and loving." " And she genuinely cares for me." " I stand corrected." "One marble." "Look, buddy, I'm happy you finally found an instrument to play that isn't in your own pants." "But she's been spending a lot of time here." "If you're not careful, she's gonna wanna move in." "Would that be so bad?" "Hey, I don't have a lot of rules around here but nine of the top ten are just different ways of saying:" ""Women are not allowed to live here."" "They come and they go." "Often they do one of those multiple times, but in the end they always go." "But why is that so important?" "Alan, there's a natural balance in this house, which must not be upset." "It's like the Amazon rain forest." "You bring in one too many spider monkeys you're up to your ass in tree frogs." "Oh tree frogs." "That clears up everything." "Don't patronize me, you hump-happy simpleton." " You know what I'm saying." " I do." "If Kandi were to move in here, it would be an environmental disaster..." " ...of epic proportions." " Exactly." "She's been living here the past three weeks." " What?" " Who's the simpleton now?" "Kandi got evicted from her apartment three weeks ago and she moved in here." "Oh, please, if a woman was living in my own house for that long I think I'd notice." "Oh, really?" "Really?" "Well, let's try a little experiment." "What color is the couch in the living room?" " The couch?" " No peeking." "What color is it?" "Well, it's kind of a..." "Beige-ish..." "Tan." " You sure?" " Yeah, I'm sure." " Go look." " Fine." "What the hell is that?" "Your couch." "Jake spilled grape juice on it last summer." "I had it reupholstered." " Last summer?" " Yeah, it was gone almost a month." "Berta and I bet on how long it would take you to notice." "I had 50 bucks on never." "All right, all right this is unacceptable." "This is my house and if furniture's gonna get reupholstered or moved or changed in any way whatsoever, I demand to be consulted." " Okay, from now on." "I promise." " Thank you." "I bought the damn thing." "Think I'd have a vote, maybe show me a swatch." "Hey, wait a minute, did somebody say Kandi's living here?" "Boy, am I thirsty." "That's because you sweat so much during sex." "I may not have the biggest boat in the marina." "But nobody rows harder than me." "You have a boat?" " No, sweetie, what I meant was..." " Hey, hey, hey." "Some of us don't wanna hear about your little dinghy." " Oh, hi, Charlie." " What're you doing here?" "I was asking myself the same thing so I did a little research and it turns out it's my house." "Yeah, but I thought you were going out." " I did go out." "And then I came back." " Alone?" "No, Alan, I brought home an invisible cocktail waitress." "She's doing me even as we speak." "You're right." "There's no way you could've been that cranky." "You want some company, Charlie?" "Alan can't have sex again for at least 30 minutes." "That's a rough estimate." "Thanks, but I'd really rather be alone." "Okey-doke." "Come on, I think he wants to masturbate." "Not for at least 30 minutes." "Okay, I haven't sampled anything from the other side of the buffet since I traveled with the Grateful Dead." "But golly Moses, she's a muffin." "Interesting turn of events, huh?" "Your brother hitting one of your hand-me-downs." "And you couldn't get laid if you painted your penis to look like money." "Don't think I haven't tried." "I'm reminded of the tale of the tortoise and the hare." "Isn't there something you could be doing?" "Well, I could go rub some oil on her, but I don't trust myself." "Berta, please don't take this the wrong way but it's been a long time for me and you're starting to turn me on." "I'm out of here." " Hi, Berta." " Hey, baby." " Hi, Charlie." " Hi." " Boy, this is weird, huh?" " Ln so many ways." "But which one caught your attention?" "Well, I've never slept with brothers before." "I mean at different times." "And one can't help but make comparisons." "No kidding." "So how big a difference are we talking about?" "It's huge." " Really?" " Oh, yeah." "With you, sex is kind of like going on Space Mountain." "It's a good ride, but there's never any real danger." "With Alan, it's like being in the back seat of a car driven by a really smart kangaroo." "He may go up on the curb a couple times, but he'll get you there." "Okay." "Thanks for clearing that up." "I'll get it." "There's a two hour wait for Space Mountain." " Hi, Mrs. Harper." " Oh, dear lord." "Hey, Kandi, I got Evil Dead 3 for Xbox." "Sweet." "Kandi, maybe you'd like to go put some clothes on." " Why?" " Yeah, she ain't hurting anybody." "I just don't think that outfit is appropriate for Jake." "Oh, I agree." "He would look ridiculous in this." "Can you get Alan for me?" " He's not back from work yet." " He's not?" " Then what are you doing here?" " I live here now." "Didn't Alan tell you?" "No, he did not." " Charlie, I wanna talk to you." " Good to know." "Charlie, get over here." "It was nice seeing you, Mrs. Harper." "What in God's name does she see in him?" "Well, I don't have all the details, Mrs. Harper." "But apparently when he's not being emasculated and demoralized on a daily basis, he's quite the lover." " What's that supposed to mean?" " You know what they say." "Your average man's like a good field mule." "If you don't beat him, he'll keep plowing all day long." " Nobody says that." " You're hard to fool." "Look, I don't mean to be rude, but I'm tired of talking to you." "Had an interesting chat with your ex-wife." "Oh, can't we just have a nice dinner?" " I like her." " Why?" "Why?" "Well, unlike most ex-wives I've known she's never tried to run me over with her car." "Okay, new dinner conversation." "Jake, how was school?" "I don't think this conversation'll make you any happier, Dad." " What now?" " We had a surprise test today." " And?" " I was really surprised." "So, in other words, you weren't prepared." "You can't prepare for a surprise, Dad." "New conversation?" "Jake, what are we gonna do?" "You've really fallen behind this year." "I know." "I think it's a delayed reaction to your divorce." " Oh?" " Yeah." "It took a while, but my teachers have finally stopped feeling sorry for me." "You know, I'm a child of divorce too, Jake." "Really?" "How old were you when your parents split up?" " Twenty-two." " But you're 22 now." "Twenty-two and a half." "Boy, what I'd give to be 22 again." "New subject?" "No, no, no more conversation." "Jake, if you're finished, go do your homework." "I'm gonna need help." " You don't need help, you need to focus." " I'll help you." "Do you know anything about geometry?" "Well, I know it's what you say when you turn into a tree." "Get it?" "Gee, I'm a tree." "Good one." "Thanks." "Boy, I hope when they get to Oz the wizard has two brains to give out." "And speaking of out, when's Kandi leaving?" " You don't have to worry." " Because?" "I have a plan." "Alan, if history has taught us anything it's that both those statements cannot be true." "It's very simple." "You give a man a fish, he eats for a day." "You teach him to fish, he eats forever." "Okay, okay, in that example is Kandi the man or the fish?" "I found her a job." "She'll be able to afford her own place and she won't depend on me anymore." "Where is she working?" " She's gonna be my receptionist." " That's your plan?" "Why it's brilliant." "What, what?" "She's attractive, she's friendly and she's more than capable of answering the phones." "You hear the expression "don't crap where you eat"?" "Well, you, my friend, are dropping plunkies all over the dessert cart." " Okay, you have a better solution?" " No, no, no." "No, it's your girlfriend, your office, your life." "Screw it up however you think best." "I'll get it." "I'm expecting a call." "Hello?" "Kandi, that's the TV remote." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Have you thought of teaching a fish to answer your phones?" "Hello?" " Staying in tonight?" " Yep." " Giving up on the ladies, huh?" " Yep." " Not even gonna try?" " Nope." "You know, I got a niece in the joint." "She doesn't look like much, but she does get conjugal visits." "I don't think so." "Hold on, I might have a copy of her mug shot." "Here." "She looks a little wall-eyed but that's because they had to use a Taser to get her out of the shed." " The shed?" " She was running a meth lab." "But you gotta admit, she is nice and slender." " Thanks, but pass." " Think about it." "Visiting days are Wednesdays and Fridays." "But if you decide to go, be a sport, take her a pie." " Right." " Make it something chewy." "The prison dentist set her up with some real nice teeth." "Okay." "Now this isn't my lamp." "What happened to my lamp?" "Unless this is my lamp." "Yeah, this is my lamp." "I bought this lamp to go with my couch." "My tan couch." "Worst day of my life." "Yeah, well, it was no picnic for me either." " I don't know who you are anymore." " You wanna know who I am?" "I'm the idiot paying you $10 an hour to miss phone calls." "Nap in the bathroom." "Use my x-ray machine on Mexican food." "Well, I wanted to know what's inside a Chimichanga." "If you didn't know, why'd you order it?" "Because it's fun to say Chimichanga." "Chimichanga." "See?" "So, how was work?" "Horrible." "All he did was boss me around:" ""Do this, do that, wake up."" "Maybe that's because I'm your boss." "A stupid, stinky boss." "Anybody wanna know about my problems?" "It was supposed to be Sloppy Joes for lunch." "But instead they had fish sticks." "Well, it ruined my day." "No, no, no, I'll get it." "That's what I do." "That's all I'm good for." "Hello?" "Oh, fudge." "Picture an entire day of this." "With six lines." "Hello?" "Oh, hi, Mrs. Harper." "Oh, great." "Kandi, Kandi, give me the phone, give me..." "Back off buck-o." "Was your ex-husband always such a control freak?" "She says you were." "You know what he did today?" "Kandi, you don't have to get into that with her." "She says she wants to know." "Well, first of all at the office he tried to make me call him Dr. Harper all day." "And when I forgot he yelled at me." "What?" "Chiropractors aren't really doctors." "You liar." "I so get why you dumped him." " Hey, Alan?" " What?" "Is this a new lamp?" "I would like that so much, Mrs. Harper." "Okay, I will call you Judith." "Great, I'll see you there." "See her where?" "We're going out for a drink and a little girl talk." "Girl talk with my ex-wife?" "Her name is Judith, Mr. "I'm not a doctor" Harper." "Don't wait up." "You just crapped where you used to eat." " Hey." " Hey." " What are you doing up so late?" " What time is it?" "It's 3 a.m." "Oh, well then, I got my eight hours." "What are you doing, waiting up for Kandi?" "Oh, no, no, no." "I couldn't sleep." "So I thought I'd read a little." "A furniture catalog?" "I like furniture." " Just looking at the pictures, huh?" " What are you getting at, Charlie?" "I think you buy things." "I think you bought this lamp." " That lamp was here when I moved in." " Oh, really?" "Charlie, I'm afraid that this dry streak is starting to affect your mind." "Maybe you're right." "Sure, this is my lamp." "I've had it for years." " The table it's on is new." " I knew it." "We don't wanna wake up Mr. Alan Hitler." "No, no, Osama bin Alan." " Busted." " What the hell is going on here?" "The hell what is going on here is that I need an advance on my "amilony."" " Why?" " To pay Estefan, our limo driver." "You took a limo?" "We couldn't find our cars and we spent all our money on JELL-O shots, and chimichangas." "All right, all right." "Kandi, you need to go to bed." "We have to get up early for work." "No, we don't." "Because I quit." "Why don't we talk about this in the morning?" "All right, Judith, here is you're "amilony"." " Thank you." " Go home." "And Kandi, go to bed." "I do not wish to live with you any furthermore." " What?" " I have been invited to stay with my good friend Judith." "Come on, I'll help you pack your things." "Did you ever notice how much he sweats during sex?" "Well, good for you." "Good for me?" "How is this good for me?" " You got Kandi out of the house." " I didn't want Kandi out." "And I didn't want her moving in with my ex-wife." "Oh, right." "Okay then, good for me." " Harper?" " Here." "I'm gonna have to check your pie." "Rhubarb." "Oh, my girls like rhubarb." "Okay, inmate 37059." "Down the hall, third door on the left." "There's a button by the bed." "Push it if she gets violent." "Thank you." " It won't open." " Try it again." "Boy, you really are having a dry streak, aren't you?" "Oh, God." "I can't even get laid in a women's prison." " Hi, are you Alan?" " No, I'm his brother, Charlie." "Oh, well, I'm looking for Kandi." "She told me she was living here." "Actually, she moved." "It's a very funny story." " Are you a friend?" " I'm her mother." "Come on in and I'll see if I can find a forwarding address." "Thank you." "Chimichanga." " Beautiful place." " Thank you." "I see where Kandi gets her good looks." "Thanks, unfortunately she gets her brains from her moron father." "Oh, right, you're recently divorced." "Would you like a drink?" "I would love one." "Great." "Why don't you step out on to the deck, and I'll be right there." "Good news, it's raining out on my deck." "Say what?" "The dry streak is over." "So, what am I supposed to do with this pie?" "Subtitles by SDI Media Group" "[ENGLISH]"

"No." "No, you don't." "I love you." "MONROE:" "I love you." "(CONTINUES CRYING)" "I love you." "MONROE:" "I love you." "MINNIE:" "He was vulnerable and weak." "It was all I'd ever wanted, and now I had no desire for it." "(SHOWER RUNNING)" "MONROE:" "You know, I was thinking, if you can keep it together, we could really date when you turn 18." "I mean, it's not that far away." "I might even have my boat by then." "I've already received my first shipment of the vitamin power tabs." "Fucking far out, by the way." "MINNIE:" "I refuse to be some sniveling cry-baby." "I'm a fucking woman, and this is my life." "(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING)" "Hi." "Hey" "TABATHA:" "Your hand is hot." "It means you're alive." "You've got blood in your veins." "You scared?" "To try it?" "No." "I'm not afraid of anything." "No?" "No." "I'm not afraid of knives or guns, or fire or poison, rape, or being kidnapped and tortured, or brainwashed, hypnotized like that Patty Hearst girl." "Are you afraid of me?" "A little." "(FIREWORKS EXPLODING)" "MINNIE: (ON TAPE) ..." "like they would die if I were gone." "Maybe Monroe could love me like that." "(TURNS OFF)" "How long has this been going on?" "What?" "When did this start?" "Mom..." "(VOICE BREAKING) How long, Minnie?" "How long?" "GRETEL:" "Mom?" "What's happening?" "Minnie?" "Mom?" "Gretel, out!" "Who started it, you?" "I knew it." "I knew it." "I fucking knew it." "And he made me feel like I was fucking crazy, and I knew it!" "Mom." "Mom, I wanted to tell you." "I can't fucking look at you." "Stay here." "(SLAMS DOOR)" "Fuck!" "No!" "No." "Mom?" "MONROE:" "There she is." "How you doin', kiddo?" "Minnie, Monroe's got something he has to tell you." "MONROE:" "Hmm?" "Sit down." "MONROE:" "Let's just all relax, you know?" "Take it easy for a minute." "No, let's just get into it." "Let's get right to it." "Right?" "Isn't that what people do?" "Okay." "Uh..." "Minnie..." "Your mother and I, we've been talking, and she, or we, thought that..." "(CLICKS TONGUE) ...maybe you and I should get married." "You're drunk." "I'm not drunk." "I mean, we get along pretty well." "Don't you think?" "I think we do." "That's not the point, that you get along with her." "That's not the point." "The point is that you fucked my daughter, and so you're gonna marry her." "That's the point." "Mom." "What?" "It's true, right?" "He porked you?" "He porked you, and so now he's gotta marry you!" "People are staring." "Who cares?" "Fuck you." "What, are you embarrassed?" "You embarrassed that you porked my daughter?" "Are you crazy?" "Stop saying "pork."" "Do not talk to me like that." "Not right now." "I got married when I was around your age, it's not so bad." "MONROE:" "I said I would marry her." "And I will." "I'm a man of my word." "All right, then." "MONROE:" "Mmm." "Great." "You can marry her, and then you can fuck her any time you want." "MONROE:" "Mmm." "Oh, yeah." "Minnie." "Just let her go." "What I want" "Hey, truck driver."

"It is a black crisp night and my eyes are like headlights." "I've become nothing, finally." "No home, no school, no money." "I haven't been home in days." "I don't know how it happened, really." "MINNIE:" "Who's Mike again?" "TABATHA:" "My friend." "You met him last night." "He's cool." "MINNIE:" "He has so many stairs." "I wanna go back to bed." "We Will." "We just gotta make this one stop first, okay?" "Like we talked about?" "Mike's been asking about you." "So, I told him I'd come by." "He's got really good 'ludes. (CHUCKLES)" "Right." "You like that, don't you?" "Don't I know how to take care of my girl?" "I'm hungry, though." "Everybody thinks you're so sexy." "Those eyes and that ass." "It's a good thing I'm not insecure, otherwise I might be getting all possessive and shit." "Possessive of me?" "With guys like Mike lusting after you." "But it's not a big deal." "I'm not uptight, and you're not uptight, right?" "What's not a big deal?" "It'll be very quick." "He only takes a few minutes." "I need you to do this for me, okay?" "You gonna do this for me, baby?" "Yeah." "Good." "Good." "You're doing good." "Baby, you hungry?" "We're making grilled cheese." "Yeah, she's real young." "You like that?" "(COUGHS)" "Minnie?" "(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)" "God damn it, Minnie." "MINNIE:" "Sorry." "(CRIES)" "Are you okay?" "Are you okay?" "Yeah." "Oh, my God, we were so worried about you." "I looked everywhere for you."

"Welcome to Sparkhill, Birmingham, the capital of British Pakistan." "They all know me." "Do you like my suit?" "Number one." "Citizen Khan." "Mum..." " What do you think?" "I'm so excited about today." "Are you ready?" "I just need to get my bag." "Is Dad coming?" "He's in there." "What's he doing?" "There's a civic reception for Prince Charles at the town hall tonight." "Everyone who's anyone in Birmingham has had an invitation." "So..." "Your dad's still waiting for his." "Heard anything yet?" "Any minute now." "I'm on hold to the press office." "How long have you been on hold?" "15 hours." "15 hours?" "!" "Haven't they answered yet?" "Yes, of course they have." "They know me really well." "Every time I call, this woman answers and says, ' "Oh, it's you again, '"" "and puts me back on hold." "Well, can I have my phone back now, please?" "No!" "That's for incoming." "You don't want to meet Prince Charles, Dad." "I mean, what would you talk about?" "Shazia, me and Prince Charles got a lot in common." "We always wear the same suit." "Both got two children - one good, one not so good." "And we're both big supporters of the Green issues." "How do you support green issues" "Huh?" "Pakistan, isn't it!" "You know, when we're best mates," "Charlie boy might come round for tea and pakoras." "Oh, yes, it'll be like a lads' night in!" "And then Camilla will call and say..." "'"Hello, Charlie darling." "'"Are you coming home?" "' "Because your tea's getting cold.'"" "'"No, I'm sorry, Camilla." "' "I'm hanging with my BFF, Mr Khan.'"" "Dad, I don't think we're the kind of people that get invited to meet royalty." "Rubbish." "Dr Prakash got an invitation, and he's an Indian!" "He's a doctor." "And I'm a community leader!" "Just as important and as useful as doctor." "I think a doctor might be a bit more useful if you're ill." "Not an Indian doctor, sweetie." "Every time I go to see an Indian doctor," "I come home feeling much worse." "You should be glad to have a chance to support your mother's career!" "Farms are boring!" "Just for a couple of hours." "What about college?" "It's actually illegal not to go to college, you know?" "Bit late to be worrying about that." "All you have to do is come to our stall at the city farm and look interested." "Shazia!" "Do you want a lift into town?" "It's your fiancé..." "Amjad." "We'll come and support you, Mum." "Won't we, budhoo?" "Yes." "To do what?" "Mum's got a stall at the city farm." "I persuaded Brian it would be a great way of promoting our organic milk." "It's the fair and fresh range." "We're sponsoring Daisy the cow." "Oh, right." "To do what?" "She's doing a 24-hour skipathon." "Wow!" "They just help to pay for her upkeep." "Cows can't skip, budhoo." "You say that, but I've seen a squirrel that can water-ski." "I shall get my own tea, shall I?" "So, are you going to come and support me, then?" "No, sweetie, I'm busy!" "If it all goes well, who knows?" "Brian said I could be up for a promotion!" "Stupid Brian." "It's for a good cause, Dad." "Organic is how food is meant to be." "It's natural." "There's nothing natural about charging £4 for an apple, Shazia." "Free." "That's how food is naturally." "If they wanted it to be really natural, they'd give it away for nothing." "Ah!" "This is it!" "This is it!" "My invitation to the Prince Charles civic reception." "Oh!" "Oh..." "Hello, Mr Khan, community leader speaking!" "This is an urgent message about your payment protection insurance..." "In the last ten years..." " It's for you!" "There." "Mmm." "Mr Khan!" "Salaam alaikum, Mr Khan." "Walaikum assalam, Riaz!" "Salaam alaikum, Mr Khan." "Hello, Dave." "We're going to the city farm." "Are you coming?" "Oh, God, not you as well?" "!" "What are you going there for?" "Well, we have to support the local community, Mr Khan." "And I think it's important that we stay in touch with our farming heritage." "I'm sorry, but you're not getting me along to some poncey-shmoncey love-in for tree-huggers and bean-ticklers." "I'm not sure that's the right expression..." "Listen, Dave, the likes of me get invited to civic receptions." "The likes of you hang about at glorified petting zoos." "There's going to be a surprise visit from a VIP." "You might even get to meet him." " Who is it?" "I'm not really allowed to say." "Let me guess, some washed-up, X Factor winner?" "No, thank you." "He's really into the use of organic fertiliser." "So is next door's cat." "He's from a large and important family." "Lives in a big house?" "Not Mr Javed!" "No." "It's..." "Oh, God!" "Not Gary flippin' Lineker?" "!" "I tell you, that man would turn up to the opening of a crisp packet." "So, you're not coming?" "No!" "Bye-bye." "God." "Honestly." "Oh-ho, Charlie!" "Allahu Akbar!" "Thank you, God!" "Ha-ha-ha!" "Right, let's get this show on the road!" "Yes, Brian." "Remember, we want as much publicity out of this as possible." "OK, so, I'll hand out the free samples and then I'll give out the leaflets." "And then I'll tell everyone about the cows we're sponsoring, and then I..." "Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey." "Come on, now." "Remember, there's no I in team." "This is a joint effort." "Of course, Brian." "Off you go, then." "Dave!" "Dave!" "Over here!" "Poop!" "Poop!" "Mr Khan?" " Hello, Dave." "What are you doing here?" "I'm here to support our local community, Dave." "You know me, I'm all for staying in touch with our farming heritage." "Salaam alaikum." "So, you're here to support the city farm organic initiative?" "That's right." " Really?" "Of course not!" "I'm here to meet Prince Charles." "Why are you wearing a dress?" "This is what all royal family wear when they visit the countryside, eh?" "Prince Charles, Wills, Harry, Duke of Edinburg - they all wear Scottish man dress." "I don't want Prince Charles to feel like he sticks out." "Apart from his ears, obviously, but he can't do anything about them, eh?" "Look, ladhoo." "Look at these." "Aw, they're so sweet!" "Amjad's getting broody." "He wants to start trying for a baby as soon as we're married." "Too much information!" "Look, there's a baby, and there's another one, and there's a baby too!" "They're all babies!" "We've got a rare-breed breeding programme going on here." "It's a really exciting project, actually." "Are you interested in livestock at all?" "I am." "In fact, we've got a Dairy Shorthorn cow ready to calve at any time now." "If you stick around, you might even see it happen!" "Random!" "Did you hear that, budhoo?" "We might see a calf being born." "I would love that." " How about you?" "Will you be there?" " Of course." "I'd love it too." "In the meantime, perhaps we could try and drum up some more business?" "Good idea, Brian!" "If it all goes well today, Mrs Khan," "I might promote you to frozen foods." "Thanks, Brian!" "Right, where is he?" "Let the Pakistani dog see the royal rabbit, eh?" "He's running a bit late." "Oh, maybe he had to stop for a royal wee, huh?" "I just need to find out who's in charge around here." "That's her." "How do you know that?" "We leaders have natural authority, Riaz." "I can see it a mile away." "Plus, she's got that stupid, horsey laugh, that all posh peoples do." "Haw-haw, haw-haw!" "So!" "Prince Charles civic reception, here I come." "Shouldn't you go and say hello to Mrs Khan?" "Some of us are real men, Dave." "You don't find us running around after our wives all the time." "Hello, sweetie." "I was just looking for you." "What are you doing here?" " He's here to meet Pri..." "Ahem!" "I've come to support you, my darling." "I thought you said you were too busy." "I was teasing!" "I was always planning on coming," "I just wanted to surprise you!" "You found out about Prince Charles, didn't you?" "No." "Then why are you dressed like that?" "Like what?" "Like a Pakistani Braveheart?" "I didn't want to get my suit all muddy." "Hello, hello, hello." "You remember Brian, my boss." "Salaam alaikum." "So, how are you getting on, Mrs K?" "Very well, Brian." "And how many people have tried our taster cups?" "None." "Oh." "Oh, well." "Not to worry." "I'm sure we'll turn it round." "All hands to the pumps, eh?" "Yes, Brian." "I don't know what to do, I think I need some help." "Maybe if there were two of you?" "Really, you mean that?" "Of course!" "Go and ask Shazia." "So, obviously we want to highlight all the organic produce we have here as well as talking about the animal welfare side of things." "Yes?" " Salaam alaikum." "Jolly good." "Um..." "I don't think we've met." "Mr Khan." "Community Leader." "They all know me." "I'm sorry?" " That's OK." "No, I mean I didn't catch your name." "Khan." "Khan." "And how would one spell that?" "The same as two would." "I'm afraid we're at cross-purposes." "That's because only one of us is talking English." "Me, Mr Khan." "K, H for hat, A for Asian, N for knowledge." "Are you one of the Scottish Khans?" "No!" "Of course not." "Don't worry, there's no dodgy foreigners around here." "I'm as English as apple pie." "And chicken tikka masala." "I see." "Well, I'm Marina..." "Fairchild." "I was dark child." "I have two dark children." "Lovely daughter, Alia." "And other daughter." "Also mine." "So, you're the big boss then, isn't it?" "Well, I am the president of the committee, yes." "Great." "So you can introduce me to Prince Charles." "What?" " Is he here yet?" "I'm dying to meet him." "Ah." "Well, I'm afraid that's not going to be possible." "What!" "Why?" "Oh, well, HRH is on an extremely tight schedule, so he only has time to meet a very select group." "I am a very select group!" "How many Pakistanis have you seen dressed like this?" "I know, I am sorry." "But, you know, do please stay and cheer his arrival." " What?" "All right, Mr Khan?" "Isn't this exciting!" "No, it's not, Dave." "It's a disgrace." "Oh." "Well, why's that?" "Why do you think?" "You know, the only people that get to meet Prince Charles are that lot over there." "I'm just as good as them." "Just because I don't do the silly, Red-Rummy laugh." "Haw-haw-haw!" "Well, to be fair, Mr Khan, they are the city farm committee." "What about him?" "He doesn't look like he's on the committee." "He's the vet." "The vet's very important on the farm." "Why?" " You've got to look after the animals." "Ha!" "How hard is that?" "Give them food." "Keep them clean." "Don't let them kill each other." "It's the same as children." "It's a bit more complicated than that." "There's all the different types and they all have different needs." "Rubbish!" "Animal is animal." "Look at this one..." "Anyone can look after that." "What the hell is it?" "They're ferrets, Mr Khan." "Farmers used to use them to catch rabbits." "Yeah." "And they kept them down their trousers." "What!" "Why?" "I think that's how they like to be carried." "I'm not sure that's right." "What are you doing?" "No, I don't think you should take it out of its cage." "Relax, Dave, I'll put it straight back." "Please be careful, Mr Khan." "Ferrets have very sharp teeth." "He's fine." "Aren't you?" "Salaam alaikum." "Hey, do you want to hold him?" "Say hello to Uncle Davey." "No!" " Someone's coming." "Quick, put it back!" "All right, all right, keep your knickers on!" "Oh..." "Do something!" " Uh?" "Hello again." "Is everything all right?" " Yes, thank you." "It's great to see so many people here, isn't it?" "Oh, yes." "We're having a wonderful time." "Aren't we?" "Oh, yes." "It's very fascinating." "Ah?" "Are you interested in animal husbandry?" "Very much so." "And what about you?" "Ye-e-es!" "About this animal husbandry, I mean, do the animals have big weddings?" "Because maybe we can double up with my daughter and share the costs with a hippopotamus." "Is your friend all right?" "He's fine." "Don't worry about him." "He's just, er, getting ready to pray." "We're Muslims, you see." "We pray a lot." "Oh..." "God!" "There you are." "I think it's biting him!" "Hmm?" "Is it biting you?" "Yes!" "Can you shake it off?" "It won't let go." "What's going on?" "He's put a ferret down his trousers." "What?" "!" "Good heavens!" "Hi!" "Hi!" "Oh, dear." "Is it bad?" "It's not good." "Can't you just pull it off?" "Certainly not!" "They can be very tenacious once they've latched on." "Particularly when they're frightened." "I told you not to frighten it." "Will, come over here and take this man away." "And give the ferret a sedative." "Now we need to have everybody out of here once the royal party arrive..." "Oh, it's you again." "Hello." " What do you want?" "So, the vet's gone?" "Yes." "So, now you've got a spare place on your reception party, huh?" "Ah..." "So, where do I stand?" "Um, no, the thing is, Will was going to be talking about our breeding programme, organic techniques and so on..." "I can do that." "Oh, you have farming knowledge, do you?" "Oh, yes." "I know all of it." "The crops, the chickens, the sheeps, the goats." "But not the pigs, though!" "I see." "But you're not a veterinarian?" "You don't have any actual qualifications from the RCVS?" "Oh, yes." "I've got loads!" "RCVS, RSVP," "R2-D2." "Now, look, Mr Khan, I'm sorry, but it's just not possible." "Oh." "So, maybe you think you can't have a brown, organic vet-farmer, hmm?" "No, no, I didn't say that..." "We Pakistanis invented organic farming." "It's all the dung, isn't it?" "Oh, no, no, I'm sure you're right." "There's loads of dung in Pakistan." "Here some dung, there some dung, everywhere some dung-dung." "Well... all right, but... just stand at the back and don't speak unless you're spoken to." "Don't worry, I'll be all ears." "Oh, oh, no - that'll be Prince Charlie, won't it?" "OK, everyone, line up." "Now, the royal party are a few minutes away now, so I just want to run over the procedure before they get here." "We'll run over the procedure." "Right." "So, when the royal car arrives," "I shall go out and greet His Royal Highness." "Go out and greet him." "And you will all stay here." "You stay here." "All of you." "Yes!" "After which, I will bring him in and introduce him to the line-up." "Introduce him." "And then I will give him a short tour of the farm." "Tour." "Right." "So, you need to be down here at the end." " What?" "!" "Now, when I come to introduce him, the correct etiquette is as follows." "You hold out your hand and you wait for him to take it." "Then it's a bow of the head for the men and a little bob curtsey for the women, nothing too extravagant!" "And then I shall introduce you and you will say," "' "Your Royal Highness.'"" "So, for instance, here I am entering with HRH, we approach the line-up and I will say," "' "Sir, may I introduce you to... '"" "MRK." "I beg your pardon?" "Well, he's HRH and I'm MRK." "Mist-R Khan!" "The calf's come." "Oh, my goodness!" "What?" "What is it?" "Is it Prince Charles?" "No, it's Daisy." "She's in labour." " Well, that's all right, then." "We need Will." "Oh!" "He's switched his phone off." "This is so inconvenient!" "What about HRH?" "What time's he getting here?" "Mr Khan, you can deliver Daisy's baby." "What?" "!" " Apparently it's stuck, so you'll need to reach in and pull it out." "But I don't even know the woman!" "Daisy's a cow." "Well, I'm not doing that either." "But you said you knew all about animals." "Is the cow halal?" "What?" "!" "I only deal with halal animals." "I'm an expert in goats." "Goats are Pakistani." "It's the beards, you see?" "But we need your help." "I'm sorry, Your Horsiness, but I'm not sticking my hand up a cow's nonny-nonny for anybody!" "Oh, hello, sweetie!" "What's the matter, is everything all right?" "Not really." " I'm sorry, but you can't be in here." "You'll have to leave." "Chup!" "Do you mind?" "This is my wife." "Oh, no wonder she's upset." "Come on, sweetie." "Tell me all about it." "Only, be quick, cos I've got to meet Prince Charles in a minute." "My stall didn't work out like I hoped and nobody was interested in my taster cups." "Oh, well." "I'm afraid today's been a bit of a disappointment." "And then, to cap it all, a ferret escaped and... did its business in the milk churn." "Now it really is organic!" "To be honest, I always thought that sponsoring a cow was a bad idea." "And we've got no publicity out of it at all." "Now I'll be stuck on shelf-stacking duty for ever!" "Right, sweetie." "I need you to do something for me." "What?" "Take your clothes off." "What?" "!" "I'm going to show you how much I love you." "Now?" " Not all of them, just your apron." "OK." "Why?" "What are you going to do?" "I'm going to offer the farming community the Pakistani hand of friendship!" "And tell Prince Charles I said," "' "Salaam Alaikum!" "'"" "Hello, sir." "Hello, Amjad." "What are you doing here?" "We came to see the baby calf." "And the tent got evacuated because somebody let the ferrets out." "Where's the vet?" "He's not here, but Mr Khan is stepping into the breach, so to speak." " What?" "He's something of an expert with cows." "OK..." "Oh, dear..." "How is she?" " Fine." "She's still a cow." "And the calf?" "Yes, that's still in there too." "Oh, dear." "So, do you think you might need to, um..." "What?" "give her a bit of help?" "Huh?" "!" " I mean, you must have had to deal with this sort of thing back on your farm in Pakistan." "Of course." "Right." "Thank goodness your father's here." "I'm not sure I'd know what to do." "No." "Me neither." "Oh gosh, HRH is here!" "What?" "!" " I really have to go and greet him." "Look, you carry on, and I'll come back once the royal party have left." "You can't!" "Dad!" "This is Mum's last chance to impress Brian." "Right." "Amjad, I'm going to need a hand." "Oh, no, sir." "Please, don't make me..." "Just get her tail out the way, you idiot." "Oh, OK." "It's very dark." "Oh, twadi..." "Here goes..." "Oh, twadi!" "Does it feel OK?" "Not really." "Is she having contractions?" "I don't think so-o-o-o-oh..." "I think she's having one, sir!" "Yes, thank you, Amjad!" "Oh." "Oh, agh!" "Er, I think we should give Daisy some privacy." "Right!" "Amjad!" "What's happened?" "The calf's foot got stuck and Mr Khan had to try to get it free." "It was so hard." "I'm not sure we did it right." "Oh, no..." " But it's all over now." "Oh, my God!" "You did it!" "I got the calf, sweetie!" "What about Daisy?" "She's fine." "Oh, well done!" "Well done!" " Yes, well done, indeed!" "And well done, Mrs Khan." "I knew it was a good idea!" "And well done, budhoo." "He held the tail!" "We'll have a baby one day." "But it won't look like that." "Hi." "Where have you been?" "Thanks for that." "It's a big relief." "You were amazing, Dad." "Eugh!" "You should probably get cleaned up!" "And I'm sorry you didn't get to meet Prince Charles." "That's OK." "Your Royal Highness, here he is, the hero of the hour!" "Oh..." "Sir, may I present Mr Khan, community leader and deliverer of calves!" "Definitely, Your Royal Princeness." "Lovely." "Shall we?" "What did he say?" "I've absolutely no idea." "But I tell you one thing," "I'm never washing this hand again!" "Oh, you look nice, my darling." "Thank you." "And thank you for helping me with my job." "That's OK." "You're my wife and I'll always support you." "Just promise me you won't sponsor any elephants." "Oh..." "Brian was thrilled with all the publicity." "He said he might consider me for a junior trainee assistant manager job." "Next year." "You deserve it." "I can't believe we're going to the civic reception." "Have you got the invitation?" "They're going to call me and tell me where we need to pick it up." "Hang on." "Where's my phone?" "When did you last see it?" "When I was in the barn with Daisy." "Oh, twadi!" "Ripped By mstoll"

"There's nothing close to a viable location for a base." "Maybe you're just being picky." "Maybe I have to be." "Kanan!" "Kanan!" "What is it?" "My parents." "Kanan, I..." "I saw my parents." "I had a vision that they're out there, and I've gotta find them." "Ezra, you know visions inspired by the Force can be misinterpreted." "Just start at the beginning and tell us exactly what you saw." "Okay." "Some kind of Imperial prison, I think." "My parents were there, and..." "And then there was this Loth-cat." "You've never wanted to talk about your parents." "That was before this vision, Kanan." "It was so real." "You have to believe me." "I think it's time to show him." "Show me what?" "Remember when Tseebo told you he knew what happened to your parents?" "(CONSOLE BEEPING) Yeah." "But I didn't want to hear what he had to say..." "That I'd never see them again." "Why?" "Do you know where they are?" "We know they were taken to an Imperial prison, one of a thousand." "There are so many." "Where do we start?" "Tseebo didn't know exactly where they were, but he had fragments of information, which we've been trying to piece together." "We called in every favor with every smuggler, trader and pirate we know." "Even asked Senator Organa to inquire with his sources, but we couldn't find them." "I'm sorry." "Why didn't you tell me this sooner?" "There was nothing to tell." "Your parents were just gone." "Hera." "Thank you." "Garel is a major port and under our control." "Surely our garrison there would have spotted rebel activity." "You doubt my word, Admiral?" "No, Inquisitor." "I merely look to the day when you produce results." "And they have." "I have independently confirmed the Inquisitors' theory." "There is a rebel presence on Garel." "They use multiple spaceports to hide their ships." "Quite clever." "You respect them, even though they represent your constant failure?" "Perhaps, Inquisitor, we can achieve together, what we have not apart." "Admiral, deploy the fleet to Garel." "Mom, Dad, I will find you." "KANAN:" "Ezra." "What is that?" "It's a list of Imperial prisoners." "The Empire's deleted their names and images to keep them secret." "Where'd it come from?" "Commander Sato." "He knows of my interest in Imperial prisons." "His contact in the Core intercepted a report, there was a mass escape last night." "That's why I had the vision." "My parents were a part of this." "Possibly." "They were!" "I know it." "We've got to find them." "How do we find them?" "I know an old Jedi trick that might be able to help." "I can't guarantee this will work." "You have to open your mind to the truth as the Force presents it." "That can mean something good or something bad." "Do you understand?" "Yes." "I understand."

"I need my helmet." "We want you to find your parents, Ezra, but even if you're right, you can't go now." "We need a plan." "The entire Imperial sector fleet has the planet in a blockade." "Um, not anymore." "Been listening in on Imperial chatter." "Wait." "What's up on Lothal?" "The Empire's fleet left Lothal's orbit this morning." "Left Lothal?" "Where to?" "Doesn't matter, okay?" "This is a sign." "I'm supposed to go." "(GRUNTS) Where's my stupid helmet?" "I know you have to go, but that doesn't mean you have to go alone." "We support you." "We're family." "Speaking of family, where are the delinquents?" "(COMLINK BEEPS) Back to Lothal?" "Well, that sounds like a terrible idea." "Besides, we haven't finished getting our supplies."

"(SHOUTS)" "Argh." "Ezra, I know how important getting to Lothal is." "No, Kanan." "Actually, you don't know what this is like." "You're right." "(SIGHS)" "I never knew my parents." "(SIGHS)" "Kanan, I..." "I'm sorry." "No." "It's okay." "It's too late for me, but maybe not for you." "(THUDDING)" "It's gonna be too late for all of us if we don't get back to the Ghost."

"Get us out of here, now." "So, are we rendezvousing with the fleet or heading to Lothal?" "We stay with the fleet." "Admiral, Agent Kallus would like to know the enemy's position." "So would I." "You have to admit, it's good to see no Star Destroyers over Lothal, for a change." "Why so quiet?" "Thank you for everything you've done for me." "You're always there when I need you most." "Hey." "I know what it's like to lose someone close and not have anyone." "When I lost my master, I was alone." "Regardless of how this turns out," "I didn't want you to be." "So?" "Where do we start?" "Home." "They burned it to the ground." "I guess the Empire wanted to send us a message." "(FAINT SIGH) But my vision led me back here to Lothal." "If my parents aren't here, where are they?" "What happened to them?" "Slow down." "The Force is trying to tell you something." "Listen to it." "(MEOWING)" "(PURRING)" "The white Loth-cat." "(MEOWS)" "Here." "Nice Loth-cat." "Good Loth-cat."

"Of course you did." "(BEEPING)" "The locator stopped up ahead in the mountains." "This is it." "Something familiar about this." "Hey." "Our friend from the market." "Get down!" "(BLASTER FIRING)" "(GASPS)" "It's him." "X-10?" "Hold your fire!" "We're friends!" "(BLASTER FIRES) Yeah, that'll do it." "MAN:" "That isn't my name, bounty hunter." "I know that's not your name." "Ezra, no!" "My name is Ezra." "Ezra Bridger." "I don't know you, but I think you might know my parents." "Ephraim and Mira Bridger." "My name is Ryder Azadi." "You're right." "I know your parents." "I can't believe you're here, Ezra." "I wanted to find you, but I guess you found me first." "I know you, don't I?" "Uh, you remember?" "You were pretty small back then." "I was the governor of Lothal." "I supported your parents and the messages they beamed out against the Empire." "It was part of the reason I was accused of treason and sent to prison with them." "I do remember." "Then you know what happened to them." "Yes, I do." "They're dead, aren't they?" "I'm sorry, son." "They are." "(SIGHS)" "Please tell me what happened." "You know, even imprisoned, your parents would stand up for those who couldn't." "Especially after they heard your message." "(GASPS) Yes." "That message." "That message of rebellion you beamed out somehow made its way into the deepest dark of Imperial prisons." "They were inspired by it, Ezra." "They rallied others to rise up and break out." "Dozens of us, rebels, sympathizers are free, thanks to them." "But they didn't make it." "They got separated in the escape." "It was just like them not to leave until everyone else got out first." "But by then, it was too late." "How?" "How did they know it was me?" "On the transmission?" "Your voice, your words, son, telling Lothal to stand up." "They knew right away." "You know, they used to say it all the time when I was little." ""If we don't stand up, who will?"" "(SOBBING)" "It's beautiful, isn't it, son?" "Yeah." "So peaceful." "That is all going to change when the Empire arrives." "But I don't want things to change." "They already have, Ezra." "You have made us so proud." "You are going to need to stay strong." "Can you do that, son?" "Yes, I can." "Remember, Ezra." "Without hope, we have nothing." "KANAN:" "Moons are setting." "Be morning soon." "I saw them, Kanan." "My parents." "They were right here." "I..." "I can't explain how." "The Jedi teach that life doesn't cease at death, but merely changes form in the Force." "Your parents are alive inside you, Ezra." "They will be." "Always."

"This is a tremendous moment." "The war is over." "I cry a little." "I think of my dearest friends, of those men fighting in the services I've known." "Piccadilly was already a seething mass of people." "The hoarding around Eros was crowded with young people, mainly from the Forces." "People were everywhere." "On shop fronts, up lamp standards, singing and shouting." "I can remember my father taking me to school one day." "There was a house absolutely flat on the floor and a woman standing outside and saying, "I only washed my windows yesterday."" "The nurses' home was hit in 1940." "Then again in 1941, the whole hospital was hit and it was completely destroyed." "The main surgeon, Mr Grey, he was killed and quite a few of the doctors and nurses." "And two wards of maternity with about 50 babies and mothers and other casualties as well." "I always..." "Every 3rd of May, I could go over it again."

"What about the future?" "What will happen now'?" "Will we, the people who have won the war, drive home our victory against fascism" "By defeating our pre-war enemies of poverty and unemployment?" "I think the expectation was," ""We are not going back to the Britain of the 1930s."" ""We're..." It was "never again"." "It wasn't only "never again" about war." "It was "never again" about that kind of peace where everything was run by rich people for rich people." "The mood among the people that I was with was that basically it was them and us." "The officers were on one side of the barrier and we were on the other side of the barrier." "People were all very much afraid that what happened after the First World War would happen after the second, which was enormous poverty and adversity." "I mean, I worked with people in the last war who, basically between the wars, had gone long periods without any jobs at all." "I don't think people were greedy for a lot of things those days." "They just wanted to live peaceful, have a job, have children and have a home life." "I think just everybody wanted a good home life with their families, you know." "I was born 87 years ago in the slums of Liverpool off Great Homer Street, a street called Mellor Street." "I was one of eight children." "And we slept five in a bed." "In my bed there was three lads and two girls." "We got into bed of a night with a bed full of vermin." "When I say full of vermin, I mean the bugs." "The fleas were in hundreds in the beds." "And we got in the beds." "There was nothing we could do about it because they were in the building, behind the wallpaper, in the skirting boards." "And we just got in that bed and lived with them." "And next morning when we went to school, we would have the cane for having dirty knees." "Every Monday morning, we were meant to take the bundles up to the pawn shops, which were in the city area." "And I'd get on the trams and the tram conductor would say, "Dalgleish is the next stop."" ""Browns." "I'll be at Browns giving a good price today, ladies."" "And when it got to the terminus, he'd say, "All away, Poverty Park" "And it really was a poverty park." "The '30s for me, I can remember quite vividly, was no shoes on my feet." "Having spoonfuls of malt, this horrible malt, when we went into school to try and stop the rickets." "And coming home from school and you could smell some food coming from somewhere." "Then all we used to have was a bowl of com flakes or something like that." "Coming home in the evening, you'd probably have a big, big plate full of swedes and potatoes with no meat." "They didn't have a carpet on the floor." "And when we used to visit, they'd scrubbed the floorboards." "And if they'd just scrubbed the floorboards, they actually literally had paper down on the floor." "My grandfather's suit had to go into the pawn shop on the Monday, in order that they had some money not only to live, but also for the youngest son, vino had a kidney complaint, to pay for his doctor's fees." "Then they'd get it out again when he got his money on a Friday, so that he could wear his suit to go to the pub." "Bread and jam was the usual thing they had." "They talk about bread and dripping." "You had to have beef to make dripping, so the chances of having dripping were remote." "It was more often than not bread and jam." "In our house there was three children died between the ages of two and four." "Two died at the same time." "And I can recall putting two coffins across our knees in a one-horse coach and the one-horse coach taking us to the cemetery." "And as I recall, them two coffins went on top of other coffins at the cemetery." "The other thing I can remember about the '30s was the long periods when, because of the militancy, they closed the pit down altogether and we had to go picking coal off the tips." "My grandfather and my father, when they heard the steam engine, the steam train passing, they would come out to the back of the house to count the number of trucks that were going up to the colliery" "because with that knowledge they would know then whether they had work for a day or two or for the week." "They used to call it the umbrella pit because it was constantly opening and closing." "My father took me down to see the dole queue in Liverpool and then he walked me the full length of it." "Then he walked me back so I could see all their faces." "And he said, "Now, remember that."" ""Remember that and don't let it happen in your day."" "And I was ten." "We went to all the meetings in those days." "They were mostly out in parks or street corners." "And I got quite used to it, so I was really pretty well educated as regards politics." "What really matters is who controls industry and the result of industry." "Hear, hear." "This rubbish about the banking system is the greatest." "Hear, hear." "You don't make money, you don't make wealth by passing bits of paper to one another." "Close up the ranks." "Fall in." "Join the great army of the children of the night marching to the conquest of the future." "Marching to build Jerusalem in England's green and pleasant land." "I was 25 years of age when I read my first book, The Ragged-Trousered Philanthropists." "It just completely changed my life." "I couldn't sleep after reading The Ragged-Trousered Philanthropists." "I just thought, what fools everyone are." "How we've all been taken in and we're still being taken in." "We're just sucked into a false life of what it's all about." "When we were living in the slums off Great Homer Street, we were the greatest empire in the world." "We had India, Africa, Canada, Australia." "The greatest empire in the world." "We were living in the worst slums in Europe." "My dad used to take an orange box round to the docks and urge the dockers to join a union, to band together with all the other..." ""You'll never get anywhere if you don't."" ""You've got to be solid." You know." "I was quite proud to go with him." "I could hear the men saying, "It's Johnny and the kid."" "So I was quite proud to be the kid with Johnny." "Well, I've been thinking about the gaps between the houses." "What comes down has to go up again, you know." "Not like it used to be, I hope." "Not with all those slums and tenements." "That's just the point." "We've got to see that the job's done decently this time." "Ya, but how?" "Do you think we can do anything about it?" "Well, why not?" "If we can work together now to look after the lives of the people here," "I don't see why we couldn't work together afterwards to clear up the mess and help build a better world in which these things can't possibly happen." "I'll second that." "It's people like us that have been doing the work of the war, and it's people like us that are going to do the work of the peace." "My mind goes back to a meeting we had in a troop ship." "Then one lad got up." "He said, "In the '30s, we had mass unemployment."" "He said, "We don't have unemployment in wartime."" "He said, "if you can have full employment killing Germans, why can't you have full employment building homes, building houses, building schools, recruiting teachers, recruiting nurses, recruiting doctors?"" "And that argument registered." "We're starting something called ABCA." "We're going to have an hour's discussion every week on current affairs." "And it's going to come out of working time." "If there is injustice, inequality, it's our fault for allowing it." "Why not write to your MP about it?" "Yes, that's just it." "We've got a parliament and it's up to us to say who goes there and to make sure they do their job when they get there." ""I am more and more suspicious of the way this lecturing-to and education of the forces racket is run."" ""I maintain most strongly that any of these subjects which tend towards politics are wrong."" ""For the love of life, do do something about it unless you want to have the creatures coming back all pansy pink."" "The experience of the war taught people that when the stale needs you lo be organised collectively, in fact, they'll force you into the army to be organised collectively, and you can be incredibly powerful." "You can defeat fascism." "And they came back imbued with that spirit of saying anything is possible." "Beveridge, a Liberal, had been given the task of looking at the world after the war, and he identified five giants." "Poverty, unemployment, illness and so on." "Want must not be known again." "There must be no mass unemployment, the giant evil of only yesterday." "Ignorance, said Sir William, no democracy can nowadays afford." "The evil of disease must be overthrown." "The voluntary hospital and the expensive nursing home are not enough to maintain this nation in good health." "We are not fighting to preserve slums which breed our own diseases just as swamps breed malaria." "No more generations must be stunted in squalor." "The Beveridge Report shows how to begin overthrowing the five giant evils." "It spurs us all to greater effort." "If we can produce so much for war, much can be done for peace." "You've got to realise there was only 21 years between two wars." "And most of the electorate were well aware of the fact that after the First World War, we had men out of work we had men standing on street corners in blue uniforms with no leg or no arm, something wrong," "and there was no jobs for them." "I don't think anybody wanted to ever see that again." "Put Labour in." "Vote Conservative." "Socialism must win." "Vote Liberal." "I'm for Churchill." "Attlee's the man." "Posters to the right of them, posters to the left of them, volley and thunder." "On July 5th, the..." "Partly, the Tory Party was broken in its core because of its attachment to appeasement." "So the coalition government, Churchill, who comes to head in the war, is actually a Labour administration at its core." ""At its core" meaning the ministries in charge of industry and employment and so forth are under Labour ministers." "Churchill's at the head of this." "Having come through the '30s where there was mass unemployment, coming through the war years where there was, you know, rationing and lack of food and where the housing standard was very poor right across the country," "people who'd fought in the war, people who'd supported the economy in the war effort, they were looking for some son of if you like, it was like a war or peace dividend." "Those were the key things that they were looking for." "And that's what the Labour Party Manifesto really addresses." "I mean, people looked back at the years of the 1930s, the 1920s, saw the mass unemployment, the wars, the revolutions, the appearance of the dictators, the misery that was caused and said, you know, "There's something about the system as it worked then" "which was almost inescapable." "We've got to change it."" "My father was not an active trade unionist or anything." "He got a map of the world and he put it on the table and he said, "Look."" "He said, "They grow wheat here, you get rubber from here, you get oil from here and you get fruit from here."" ""What we're looking for is an integrated world system where everybody has what they need and everything is developed for everybody."" "I thought that was absolutely amazing." "He said to me, "It's called socialism."" "And, you know, as a kid of ten," "I thought it was absolutely amazing and I still do." "All for one, one for all." "Well, it's not greed." "No greed and selfishness." "Labour puts first things first." "Security from war, food, houses, clothing, employment, leisure and social security for all must come before the claims of the few for more rent, interest and profit." "We have shown that we can organise the resources of the country to win the war." "We can do the same in peace." "Churchill and the Tories went so far as to print tens of thousands of copies of Friedrich von Hayek's The Road to Serfdom which is a book that basically says if you start off interfering with the economy just a little bit," "if the government just does just a little bit, you set off down the road towards totalitarianism." "You end up with Nazi Germany or Stalinist Russia, just by introducing a little bit of welfare spending, or maybe nationalising the odd industry." "The Tories printed this." "What a shame it would be and what a folly to add to our load the bitter quarrels with which the extreme socialists are eager to convulse and exploit these critical years." "For the sake of the country and of your own happiness," "I call upon you to march with me under the banner of freedom, towards the beacon lights of national prosperity and honour, which must ever be our guide." "The election was fantastic." "During the war, we'd always sat and listened to Winston Churchill on the radio." "Everybody did." "Everybody sat round the radio and listened to Winston Churchill." "And as a kid, I mean, that was it to me." "He was the leader." "This was, you know, incredible." "And I say this is no time to mince about, to mince measures and fool around with weak governments." "Therefore I say, if you do not give a strong vote to the National and Conservative government, which I..." "And then suddenly, my family started talking about something quite different." "We sat round and my father said they were going to vote Labour." "And I asked, well, what did that mean?" "He explained and I said, "Why aren't you voting for Winston Churchill?"" "And he said, "He got the guns out to the Tonypandy miners."" "I can only tell you that an enormous mass of work..." "And we campaigned Number 10 Downing Street." "So, we went there and the whole domestic staff were turned out." "It was like Upstairs, Downstairs." "And the butler said, "We're all Conservative in this house."" "The maid at the back with the little bonnet said," ""And we'd lose our jobs if we weren't."" "Labour will now have a majority over all parties in a House of 640." "It was sensational." "Three weeks ago or more when you recorded your votes, very few of you would have prophesied a working majority for Labour, much less one of about 200 seats." "Newspapers carried the astonishing news to an amazed public." "Labour landslide." "On the polling day, I went to Transport House, into the little room where we were watching the results." "On the epidiascope we saw all the Conservative seats falling." "And it was obviously a landslide." "Then the door opened." "Out of the bright sunshine into the dark room came Clem Attlee." "A BBC man said, "Will you say, Three cheers for the Prime Minister?" "And I was too shy to do that." "Then that evening, I went to Central Hall, Westminster." "Attlee had just formed the government and he brought them onto the stage." "I was up in the gallery." "And so it was a very, very exciting period." "This is the first time in the history of this country that a Labour movement with a socialist policy..." "I have this evening accepted His Majesty's permission to form..." "I ask from you all support that we shall need to carry us through, triumphantly, through difficult years, to the great era which is opening before us." "It was a real triumphant day." "Everybody was joyous." "We had a little street party where we were living." "It was a signal that things were going to be different." "One wasn't going to be ruled by old principles." "There used to be messages coming down on top of the empty drams saying, "Labour seats here." "We won four seats."" "All of a sudden he come out and said, "Labour won a landslide victory."" "And these hardened miners..." "And they were a hard kin." "They were rough and they were tough you know what I mean?" "They would take anything that the boss ever, ever threw at them, but the tears were coming down their cheeks, because..." "I said to my miner, I said, "Well, what's the matter?"" "He said, "At last." "We are going to take control of our own lives," he said." ""This new government will make a change," he said." "There was no wild optimism, at least not in the higher ranks of the civil service and the government because everyone knew that we faced an almost impossible economic situation." "The country had sold all its foreign investments." "It had lost most of its ships, it had entirely run out of dollars and industry was about three-quarters engaged in producing munitions of war which you no longer wanted." "The economy had to grow very, very rapidly at the end of the Second World War." "If you could imagine that only Britain and the United States, it was only those countries' industrial capacity that survived to any extent." "The rest had been razed to the ground or had been dismantled by the Nazis primarily." "So the world actually needed a lot of manufactured goods to be made." "But Britain had gone through a ten-year period of depression." "So, at the end of the war, Britain had a very key role to basically fill this gap in products around the world." "And British industry was very, very weak." "So the government decided that the key, if you like, inputs and infrastructure that industry required had to be nationalised on a very large scale to be able to step up that production." "We said we would bring the pits into public ownership, the railways into public ownership, we would build up the National Health Service, we would build up industry generally, and presented it in terms of this list of objectives" "you might have in wartime." "This is what you've got to do and we'll do it." "And it was credible for that reason." "Of course for the Labour Party, the natural language for trade unionists and for people struggling together is that we should own things together." "It's not, "Let's fight each other to see who can get on top of the other one and benefit."" "The Peasants' Revolt, 1381." "You have John Ball who is a, you know, hedge priest, a priest who's been basically expelled from the state Church but is continuing to preach to the commonality." "He says that nothing will go well in England until all things are held in common." "It reoccurs in the 17th century in the English Revolution with the diggers who take over St George's Hill in Surrey and begin to till the land as common land." "It reoccurs in the early stages of the Industrial Revolution when the utopian socialists like Robert Owen set up factories." "He was himself a factory owner, but he sets up a kind of model community with the idea that it will have all things held in common, that there will be some degree of control in it." "So all the way through human history, in one guise or another, this thought is constantly being reiterated, suppressed, goes underground, explodes again in a different form." "In all their many jobs, they are Britain." "Public services." "Manual workers." "Cleaners." "Caterers." "Street sellers." "Government workers." "Distributive trades." "Women workers." "Miners." "Transport drivers." "Steel men." "For seven years we, the people of Britain, fought a war for mankind." "Today we fight for our own survival." "This battle also we shall win." "I can't recall properly how we got medical attention." "I think there was a place we went to, a dispensary." "It was a huge place and there was always a queue there every time you went." "A dispensary of some sort." "And you got some son of medicines there." "But obviously it wasn't working because funerals were always going about." "Well, before the health service, money was the prime mover, or lack of it." "I think a farm worker got six shillings a week." "He would probably pay a shilling rent on that." "That left him very, very little, and most had large families." "The money was not there, so they turned to folk remedies." ""Oh, my grandma knows what to do with that," type thing." "For instance, tonsillitis, they'd get someone that had got sweaty socks, and something out of the sweat, they'd put round their neck and that was supposed to cure them, but quite often it resulted in ear infection." "For the working man or the working woman, there was National Health Insurance cover." "The panel." "You got onto the doctor's list." "Your family did not." "Your family might be covered by some son of little insurance scheme:" "the Hospital Saturday Fund or sixpence or a shilling a week that you paid for each in the hope that, if anything did happen, you'd be able to get some son of cover for care." "You had to pay." "And..." "My mother was quite sick at the time." "My father was having to go to work in agony, needing surgery, but because they didn't pay sick pay..." "This was before the railways were nationalised." "They didn't pay sick pay, so he was going to work in agony to pay five shillings for the doctor to put his foot on that doormat." "That was before you got any help, you know, advice on what was wrong with you or anything." "But the so-and-so knew my mother was dying, so kept coming back for his five shillings." "The doctors were private people." "They used to come and visit you." "They'd charge you maybe half a crown a visit." "Then they'd probably charge you half a crown for a bottle of medicine or something of that kind." "And very often you'd got, say, three or four in a family that wanted treatment at the same time, well, the doctor would do it on credit and then he would often double up as a credit collector." "We used to have collectors who used to come on a Friday at half past three, ready to get out on the streets by four o'clock." "The secret was to get the collector into the patient's home before the insurance agent arrived, because if they paid the insurance agent first, there was never any money left for the doctors' collector." "So you would occasionally go to a house, walk up to the door." "You could hear life going on behind the door." "And as soon as you knocked at the door, dead silence." "Dead silence and you thought, "I'm sure I heard somebody."" "Knock again, still dead silence." "On one occasion, a little girl eventually came to the door and said," ""My mum says she's not in."" "My mother was on her tenth child and she sent me up to get the nurse." "I run up and get the nurse because every child had to be born at home." "She came down and I could just hear mumbling and going on up there." "I heard the baby crying." "Then the next thing, I see my mother being carried downstairs on a stretcher." "And my brothers was crying." "Optimistic, I said, "Our mam is going to be alright."" ""Don't worry about Mam." "Mam is good."" "And as she went past, she just squeezed my hand." "Somehow I knew things weren't right and she..." "I came home from school that day and my cousin had come round to me." "He put his arm round me and he said, "Ray, Mam is dead."" "And of course I cried my eyes out." "And what really set the fire going inside me was when my father was also crying." "The doctor put his hand out and he said, "George," he said," ""Winnie died," he said, for the want of a pint of blood" "And he said, "Winnie died for a hospital bed."" "He said, "Winnie died for the want of an abortion."" "I ran up to the mountain with my mother's bonnet, and I said to that God up there;" "because we all went to chapel;" "we were strong chapel;" ""if you're a decent God up there," I said," ""My mam was the most wonderful woman in the world."" "My brothers and sisters have just been dragged off to the orphanage."" ""Give us our mam back." "Give me my family back."" "I genuinely believed when I went to bed that night that my mam would come back the next morning." "From that point on, I was an atheist, because I realised that the only thing, the only persons that could improve the situation was ourselves." "This leaflet is coming through your letterbox one day soon, or maybe you've already had your copy." "Read it carefully." "It tells you what the new National Health Service is and how you can use what it offers." "Hospitals and specialist services, medicines, drugs and appliances, care of the teeth, care of the eyes, maternity services, home health services." "The grand ambition really was to provide healthcare as necessary to the public at large." "It was very exciting, you know." "One knew that there wasn't very much stuff around to do it with." "We had old stock, the hospitals, we had very maldistributed medical services across the country." "There were some areas which were very poorly supplied with hospital services." "Bevan was an extraordinary man." "He nationalised the whole damn lot." "Everything that claimed to be a hospital was nationalised, which was not at all what the Labour Party had expected or voted for." "They had all expected for the hospitals to be owned and run by local authorities, by local government." "He made a lot of enemies that way." "But you, the public, are interested in health no less than doctors and in health services too." "We all want better health services and better health, but in organising them, let's make sure that your doctor doesn't become the state's doctor." "Nye Bevan was demonised, as I'm sure you're well aware." "The British media have a way of picking on somebody and turning them into a demon." "They were aided and abetted in that by the BNIA who regarded him as evil incarnate." "It's obviously quite a job sending out the BMA plebiscite to 56,000 doctors asking them, roughly speaking, whether they approve of Mr Bevan's scheme." "Lord Moran, as president of the Royal College of Physicians, did the deal with Nye Bevan which brought the NHS into existence." "He managed to persuade Bevan to drop the notion of a salaried service for general practitioners." "That sort of killed a lot of the fear amongst general practitioners." "But he also got the agreement to allow private practice to continue for the consultants and also for merit awards and various other things, which, as you may recall, enabled Nye Bevan to say shortly afterwards when asked how he'd done it," ""I stuffed their mouths with gold."" "Well, this is the birth of the National Health Service." "This is Nye Bevan and the matron, Anne Dolan, walking from the main building down towards a gate." "They said this was handing over the key of the hospital." "There wasn't a key handed over." "It was just..." "That was just the way they said the health service was born." "The thing that stands out, it sounds so petty, this, but we had jam scones for tea." "Do you remember that?" "Each and every one of us." "Food was still rationed." "We had jam scones for tea and, oh, dear God, that was marvellous." "I never met the man myself, but I do realise that he was a visionary." "He was very, very passionate about this vision of his." "I admire anyone who can take and drive through a scheme that big, countrywide." "People don't have to worry about being ill." "When they are ill, they know that they will get the best possible impartial treatment, because there's no commercial element to the relationship between a doctor and a patient." "So if you go to your doctor you know the advice that you get will be based on what's best for you clinically." "It won't be about selling you care if you can afford it or withholding care from you if you can't afford it." "I'd been to see a family in which there was a child that was coughing, pretty sick." "So I left a bottle of medicine, as one did in those days." "I came back the next day and the mother met me at the door." "I said, "Hows little Johnny?"" "And she said, "Oh, he's fine."" "I heard a lot of coughing and spluttering at the top of the stairs." "I said, "He doesn't sound terribly good."" ""Would you like me to go up and see him?"" "She said, "Well, Doctor, no, it's not Johnny, it's Bill, his brother."" ""I've given him some of the medicine that you left for Johnny."" "I said, "Well, let me go up and see him."" "She said, "I'm sorry, Doctor." "We can't afford it."" "And I said, "Today, July 5th, it'll cost you nothing."" "And I was able to go up and I've never forgotten that moment in my life." "Dentures." "Of course, dentistry was free under the NHS initially." "It jolly well ain't now, as I know it." "But I think that was it." "There was this huge surge." "People got spectacles for the first time in their lives." "I actually know one old man who carried it around with him." "It was the bottom of a bottle a glass bottle." "He used to use that as a spyglass to read with." "He got his first pair of specs when he was about 70." "Julian Tudor Hart is an extraordinary GP." "He works in a small mining village in the Welsh valleys called Glynncorrwg." "There he revolutionised the way GPs provide care for their patients." "They identified all those people who they knew needed looking after." "The people with high blood pressure." "So they made a register and they called them in." "Instead of saying, "Come back when you feel sick,"" "they said, "I'm going to see you regularly and sort your blood pressure out."" "By so doing, they reduced the deaths by complications by nearly 50 percent." "Ever since then, we've had proactive healthcare." "I think we can use the health service as a model for socialism." "I think we can learn how to be socialist in the health service." "I think the health service, a free service where we pool the risks so that everybody feels responsible for everybody else, we are our brothers' keepers and our sisters' keepers." " Hiya, Tom." " Good morning, Doc." "How are you?" "I think my chest is worse than usual." "I think I caught a cold." "I'm full up." "Feeling comfortable with being your brother's and your sister's keeper is very, very important." "It means you are a more civilised country." "I am very proud that our country produced the National Health Service." "If I were an American," "I would be ashamed that I live in such a rich country that still can't afford to have generous ideas." "Well, there'd been a debate going on for almost 40 years about the benefits of nationalisation of the railways." "They saw the waste and the duplication of railway lines and the bureaucracy of the private companies and said that society would benefit from public ownership." "It formed a sort of unstoppable argument to say that the railways had to be nationalised for the public interest and also in order to rebuild the country." "It was a queer system of working because we could have a train leave Exeter Central going, say, down to North Devon, and he could go down the bank and stay there 45 minutes for a pathway through Exeter St David's," "because the signalmen on the Great Western were told to give preference to the Great Western." "You were working against each other." "The whole history of the railways in Britain is an example of why railways are a natural monopoly." "Numerous railway lines were built, often connecting the same cities together." "Subsequently the companies that owned them went bankrupt." "The clear lesson of that is that the railways are a natural monopoly, in the same way that providing drinking water or providing electricity or gas or any other utility item." "In 1947, by Act of Parliament," "Britain set up the British Transport Commission." "Its task:" "to make all transport work as one." "Don't forget, it wasn't the nationalisation of the railways." "It was public ownership of all forms of transport, which was road haulage, it was airways, it was, you know, everything that..." "and the canals, everything." "One of the first dramatic steps was to get rid of something in Euston called the clearing house which was a huge office, full of about 400 clerks" "whose job was to pass chitties from one to another representing charges from one private railway company on another private railway company for use of their engines, their wagons, their rolling stock, their signal boxes, whatever it might be." "So there was a sort of a paper economy to represent the charges and the notional costs between the different private railway companies which employed hundreds and hundreds of clerks in essentially a completely unnecessary task." "In 1948, with the creation of the British Railways Board, that clearing house was abolished and those clerks went to do other jobs, productive, socially useful jobs in the railway industry." "The advertising department seemed to have a heyday because they recruited more staff and they had ladders and buckets of paste and so forth." "They were altering everything." "Wages increased under nationalisation." "Eventually, in the 1950s, it brought about probably the most important industrial agreement in Britain ever negotiated by trade unions, which was an agreement which effectively meant no compulsory redundancies for railway workers." "# Without rhythm #" "# A train could never go without rhythm #" "# A troop could never roll without rhythm #" "# The day would never go because rhythm #" "# Is the thing that makes the world go round #" "# Without rhythm #" "# A poet couldn't rhyme without rhythm #" "# Could never tell the time without rhythm #" "# Wouldn't hear the chime because rhythm #" "# Is the thing that makes the clock go round I" "In the 1930s, first of all, there was a tremendous depression in the coalface." "The mines were run by private enterprise." "They were opened and closed at the drop of a hat." "Markets determined whether miners worked or did not work and it was a really, really bad period." "On the onset of war, obviously, the government couldn't allow these coal owners to run the mines in the fashion they'd run them before, not only opening and shutting, but a lack of investment," "which showed tremendously up the inadequacies of the industry." "The coal industry was vital during the war." "That's why the government, the National government, had to take over the control of the coalmines." "The priority was coal." "The priority was always coal." "You got paid for the number of drams, coal tubs, that you filled per day." "You didn't get paid for putting props up to keep the roof up." "And I was working with my miner and he was a lovely guy." "I was looking at the top and I could see that we hadn't got any posts up." "We should have put the posts up, but then the horse come up with an empty tub." "They said if you can fill this quick, we'll give you another one." "So, bugger the post, bugger the props, smash into the coal." "And then all of a sudden, down came the roof." "Down came the roof." "Now, I was on the far end of it and I got covered." "But when I looked up, I could see Fred." "I could see Fred." "He was under this huge rock and his feet were kicking." "And I screamed and I run down." "I got the big, big wedge, which we put in front of the drams in case it runs away." "I ran up and I was screaming, "Fred, Fred, Fred!"" "I tried to knock this." "I was screaming all the time it happened and the other miners were all coming down." "Eventually we picked it up, but Fred was dead." "And why did he die?" "He died because the priority was coal." "And the least priority of all was safely." "There's only one word to describe the coal owners." "They were tyrants." "They were tyrants who not only owned the mines, they thought they owned the people who worked in the mines." "And to a degree, they did." "A man's sons had been stealing apples off a tree in the coal owner's grounds." "The man was dismissed and thrown out of his house." "That was the type of people that were running the mining industry in Durham." "Some were related to the royal family, of all people." "The Bowes-Lyons were big coal owners in Durham." "Lord Lambton was a big coal owner in Durham." "Lord Londonderry was a big coal owner in Durham." "These people were there for only one thing: profit." "They made sure they got profit and anyone who stood in their way was treated very, very harshly." "When you look at Denaby and Cadeby, what happened there." "They evicted all the miners for withdrawing their labour." "The miners and their families." "Threw 'em out of their homes just because they withdrew their labour to increase the wages." "Them sort of people are despicable." "That is the right word, isn't it?" "One of the ceremonies marking the transfer of the ownership of British coalmines took place on the roof of Lansdowne House in London where Lord Hyndley, the chairman, hoisted the National Coal Board flag." "And so the mines passed into national ownership on the first day of the New Year." "Though nationalisation is, of course, a long-term policy," "January 1st, 1947, was undoubtedly the day the miners had been waiting for." "We had these fantastic speeches and the cheers were going up." ""At last we're going to have safety in the mine."" ""We're going to have water infusion in the colliery."" ""Safety is going to be the key priority." "We have won."" "And I thought, "What a wonderful day."" "And everybody was cheering, laughing, crying, dancing." "Even the wives were up there as well." "At High Blantyre, Lanarkshire, is Andrew McNulty, veteran fighter for miners' rights and contemporary of Bob Smillie and William Small." "Above Dickson Pit where his father and grandfather, victims of two great disasters, lie buried," "McNulty unfurls the flag of the National Coal Board." "The ceremonies mark the taking over of the mines by the nation." "When I was the youngest member in 1947, they unveiled a plaque." "They just sent for us down there." "Never got nowt, like." "You had to still do the same shift." "My father had to come up with us." "My father thought I'd done something wrong." "He said, "What have you been doing now?"" "I says, "I haven't done owt wrong."" "They took us up and unveiled the plaque." "They had the youngest member, I was the youngest member, and the oldest member, somebody called Ford." "The atmosphere wasn't quite the same this year." "For the first time, the management was invited." "This was the first Durham rally since the pits were handed to the people." "Coal Board representatives took part in the celebrations." "The mines were now owned by the people and run for and on behalf of the people." "The elderly miners, obviously, it was their utopia." "They'd been promised this since 1919." "The whole country is watching to see how this great new organisation, this new adventure, this new experiment, comes out." "The great experiment of socialism in a democracy depends on you." "The way nationalisation was done was on a centralized system, top down." "The chairman of the National Coal Board ran all the pits in the way the private owner used to." "I'm not saying it wasn't a better system, because it was." "But at the same time the idea that people vino worked in industry had any say in how the industry was run was a completely foreign idea." "I got myself well annoyed I'll tell you for why." "A leopard cannot change its spots." "We had officials at this colliery that still had that in their mind, you know, that they would not pull their weight the same as they would under private enterprise." "In fact, at a meeting of the consultative committee," "I accused them of indirect sabotage of production since the mines were nationalised." "And I say the best thing we could have done when the mines was nationalised, put them into a boat with a false bottom and put them into North Sea and let them swim back." "That's what they should have done." "Now, the first humiliation I ever got was our own agent and manager." "I'm going to quote his name on this incident." "He was called Major Brookes." "He was publicly denounced as a tyrant by our own lodge officials in the branch, because of his attitude towards the men." "A tyrant." "And yet that man was made chairman of the Regional Coal Board." "That was the first humiliation." "You can understand how I felt." "Who's put him there?" "This was the Labour government." "Now, the second incident, I'm standing against Manny Shinwell at Durham." "He was Ministry of Fuel and Power." "He gets up and he says, "I take great pride in being the man responsible for appointing Lord Hyndley as chairman of the National Coal Board" "Lord Hyndley spoke against nationalisation, didn't believe in it." "I says, "What sort of a nationalisation have we got?"" ""The same old hand back in power."" "I think the rest of the communities, the welfares, the libraries, the reading rooms, the miners' homes, that was improved under nationalisation." "Dramatically improved under nationalisation." "But in the pits, it was still the same old struggle." "Our safety improved tremendously." "Safety committees were set up." "Investment went in, which meant safety was more important." "It must have felt like it was the beginning of a new world." "It succeeded because you had central planning." "The capital cost of building power stations and transmission systems across the whole of the UK, in current-day costings, you're talking tens of billions of pounds, so you needed central control to be able to fund such an operation." "Most of the gas, water and electricity was part of the local authority council-run services." "There was no national structure to it." "Gas, electricity, water;" "they tend to form natural monopolies." "They tend to be things that can only be done efficiently on a very, very large scale." "There's not much point building two separate distribution systems of water in a city." "You have one and everybody uses it because it's the same stuff that comes out of the tap." "If you allow private competition to be that one supplier, all the advantages that are claimed for private enterprise suddenly disappear." "So you take it into public ownership and that way you can set the prices, you can set long-term investment for the utility, you can start to control and manage how the thing's distributed." "At the end of the war, we had two problems." "We had the inherited slums from the '30s and we had the war damage." "We had millions of people coming home from the war wanting to get married, set up home and there was an acute housing shortage." "So what the Labour government did was to authorise local authorities to build houses for rent rather than for sale." "I think it's very hard on the young people out of the forces, newly married, who don't stand a chance at all." "I should be really very happy when my husband comes home and I have a house for him to come to from Singapore." "Well, I only want to say I put my application in in 1935 and I'm still waiting for a house." "Why?" "With repeated applications renewed..." "Well, I've been married six years now." "Two children and in one room only." "One room for four." "I think it's a shame." "It's about time something was done." "I used to go queue up at the council offices every Monday morning and there'd be a queue about a mile long, all the women grumbling, of course." "Everybody trying to get in there." "One particular morning, this lady came out in a fur coat and held up a key." ""I've got one," she said." ""I let him lock the door and have what he wanted."" "So I said, "Well, if that's the way I'm going to get one, I'll go without."" "Well, they told us we'd have to have another 60 points at least before we stood a chance of having a place." "We'd always planned to have four children." "So I said to Ben, "Well, let's have another baby."" ""We'll get a house then."" "So after a lot of persuasion, we decided." "We had another baby." "We got down there and they said, "We're very sorry, Mrs Adams, but about 300 other couples did the same as you that night."" "And we were back to square one, in a worse position, really, with another baby on the way and, you know, no place to put it." "We had to find out everything about this great city we were planning to rebuild." "Everything about its history and its geography, its people and the way they live." "We had to find out how much of it had been totally destroyed and how much of it was in such a bad state that it would have to be rebuilt anyway." "And that didn't just mean the bombed buildings." "The housebuilding programme is enormous." "Target of 200-300,000 homes a year constructed after the end of the war." "This is an economy that is absolutely battered as a result of six years of total warfare." "So the scale of the ambition of what was being achieved is really quite unbelievable." "First, let's look at one of the neighbourhoods and see how that's arranged." "Here, near the centre, is the junior school." "The people would live in streets or squares of terraced houses, each with its own private garden." "So it's not an inhuman plan at all, but one that is designed to make life better and pleasanter for all of us." "And so we started in 1945 with great expectations, with great enthusiasm, to try and build the new London, to make good all the devastation of wartime, to really provide a new London for the people who deserved it," "trying to give them a better kind of environment than they'd ever had before." "It was Bevan." "He was the Minister for Health and Housing." "He very much saw the need for housing in terms of the knock-on effects poor housing was having on health." "The need at the present time is to build houses for poor people." "I am not prepared to associate myself with a policy where well-to-do people can afford to build luxury homes and poor people go without homes." "His attitude was, "Nothing but the best is good enough for the working class."" ""We are going to have really good houses."" "And he built really good houses." "The Labour government not only housed people, they housed them well." "The broadest objective was human welfare." "Human welfare in terms of health, so that everybody could be healthy, everybody could have a reasonable diet, everybody could have a reasonable space to live in." "There would be no illnesses consequent on bad housing, so obviously, housing was the most important priority." "He insisted on certain minimum standards which many at that time thought were probably too good for ordinary working-class people." "I shall never forget the uproar that occurred when he proposed to put upstairs and downstairs loos in order that the kids didn't have to go upstairs every time they came in from the garden." "Planning is absolutely important." "I mean, if you look at all the most successful housing developments where there are libraries and parks and even a swimming pool and all sorts of facilities provided as part of the development or whether it's the new towns." "The schools were being planned alongside the housing and the doctors' surgeries and the employment." "So it was just perfect for young families." "The new house had French windows." "We laid in this room on these mattresses." "When we woke up in the morning, there was all this light." "There were stairs and a bathroom." "You know, like that." "So, yes, it were brilliant." "Me and my dad, we set about building a garden." "You loved to get rocks and make rockeries and do all that." "So yes, it were brilliant." "I moved into a council house not long after I got married." "It was the best thing that ever happened in my life." "To see a house with a bathroom in it and a back garden..." "I was completely taken in." "And the council houses for people in them days was the bat thing that ever happened for them." "My grandfather started to hear about the new-town proposals after the election." "So, they applied for a council house." "He was offered work building the houses." "This arrived in April, 1947, only a year after Stevenage was designated as a new town." ""Dear sir, I am now able to inform you that the house will be ready for your occupation about 19th of April, 1947."" ""The rent will be, until further notice, 17 shillings and four pence per week, including rates and water charges."" ""Yours faithfully, Clerk of the Council."" "Ah. gosh!" "And this is some photographs of him with his workmates building various things in the new town." "That's the bandstand that he built." "You say he carried this round with him?" "Yes, he carried it in his wallet for the rest of his life." "There were only a few things he carried in his wallet." "The telegram he received when he was working in the West Country to say my mother had been born and the letter of commendation he'd got from the Festival of Britain." "So it was up there in the sort of great events of his life, I think." "I think the achievements of that government rank alongside the achievements of any other government that's ever been, anywhere in the world." "I think that took British people from real, real poverty where they didn't have any hope." "It brought full employment, it brought housing, it brought many, many opportunities." "The people who got that through should be looked upon as working-class heroes." "They lifted us from an era when poverty was rife, when illness was rife, and it allowed everybody to have healthcare from the cradle to the grave." "And anybody vino tampers with that, people should attack them in as many ways as possible." "# Life is just a bowl of cherries #" "# So live and laugh at it all #" "I would just like to remember some words of St Francis of Assisi which I think are really just particularly apt at the moment." ""Where there is discord may we bring harmony." ""Where there is error, may we bring truth."" ""Where there is doubt, may we bring faith."" ""And where there is despair, may we bring hope."" "Along came Thatcher and suddenly it was all about the individual." "You know, the important thing was let's get rich and it's all about me." "And the public services really suffered under this." "British industry had become uncompetitive because of a lack of investment." "The second factor was that there was a mass overcapacity in the world's, you know, production bases." "And suddenly it all came to a crashing halt in the mid '70s and then again at the end of the '70s." "And Britain and the world was faced with trying to reduce the industrial capacity." "But also in Britain in particular, they tried to increase the rate of profit." "And there's a real intellectual assault on the ideas of Keynesianism, of nationalisation, of state intervention which Margaret Thatcher starts to carry through." "Buys into it wholesale." "So rather than the state being seen in its traditional reformist role, as something which controls industry and is a partial barrier between the working population and the free market, it becomes something which facilitates the influence of the free market" "in privatising and deregulating the economy, and in generating the dismantling of the welfare state." "It was driven really by people like" "Milton Friedman and the Chicago School who developed a model of capitalism which said that capitalism should be completely uncontrolled that it should be let rip in every direction, every form of control removed, and that it would find its own solutions under its own momentum." "It meant actually taking on the working class to reduce their wages, but also, you know, for the redundancies that we saw in steel, in shipbuilding, in the coal industry." "And it was a necessity of, if you like, the private economy." "And that means they have to break the unions." "It means they have to have the ability to hire and fire." "It means they have to have the ability to reduce wages and welfare." "These treble lines of blue that escort the scabs through the gates, where the pickets cannot picket." "They cannot talk to them." "They cannot get to them." "They cannot get anywhere near." "Now, the police are not neutral." "That is very important." "The police have been shown to the British people that they're not neutral when the working class decided to fight for their rights." "This is the thing you want to be filming." "It's a police state." "You saw yourselves." "There was men just standing on the car park." "The police came in inciting, pushing men about." "If that's not police incitement, I don't know what is." "# There are slanderous tongues #" "# Always ready to wrong #" "# And murder the fine reputation #" "# Of the lads with big feet #" "# Who by pounding the beat #" "# Are protecting the peace of the nation #" "They got me on the floor, spread-eagled me, a copper on each arm, one on each leg." "Then they started to hit my arms and legs with a truncheon, methodically, until I had no power or grip left in my arms." "Then they just proceeded to twist them straight up my back." "I think he wanted to take it home for a souvenir." "Now why do police go in with such venom?" "They seem to enjoy flyting pain and suffering on the working man." "Why?" "Who tells them to go beat a picket's head?" "Who tells them to flyting pain, try to kill him?" "Because that's what they're doing." "You stand there in the push and all you feel, all of a sudden, a fella at the side of you collapses in a pile on the floor." ""What's up with you?" He's just been kneed in the groin." "I've seen police do it." "I've no skin left on my shins where they've run their boots down your shin." "But if you look at him the wrong way, you're nicked." "I want to know, who gives them the power to do this?" "Who tells them to beat me, a working man, with a stick?" "Who is it?" "I want to know." "I think it was a betrayal of the British people because the mines were owned since 1947 by the government, for and on behalf of the British people." "There's no work whatsoever in these communities." "No industry is being brought in, none whatsoever." "Without work, you cannot have dignity and you cannot have respect." "At least in mining it was rough and it was tumble, but you got the comradeship." "You got discipline." "A lot of it was self-discipline that you taught yourself." "You were reliant upon each other." "You were making sure that anybody working with you learnt how to do the job properly because it could be your life at risk and not only theirs." "Communities are full of drugs, they're full of problems of all sorts of types that were never there when the mines were working." "What that government done destroyed all them structures that you had, all your nationalised industries, and although they always gave her fantastic credit for giving working men and women ownership of their own homes," "I thought one of the biggest disasters was the selling off of council houses." "We all lived in crofts and avenues." "Nice houses, all, you know, close to where you were working on top of the docks in Birkenhead where I lived." "But they were good houses, good houses." "And the people there were decent people, good people, good neighbourhoods." "We're looking after the people in Liverpool now." "Everyone else has deserted us so well look after our own." "We are disgusted over it, that that union is throwing the towel in, and we're not." "We're not going to throw the towel in yet, until we get a proper deal." "There's no such thing as registered dockers now." "Anyone goes on them docks now, they're just going there, doing a job and then getting chased." "So that's it." "It's soul-destroying." "The situation we have now, you've got maybe two generations in the family who've never, never been in employment." "Because of the nature of the trade union Labour leadership, they've virtually capitulated." "There's been no serious opposition." "The miners were left in isolation." "The dockers were left in isolation when they fought their last struggle in the '90s." "And the trade union laws prevent the trade unions organising collectively against political decisions." "Now, as far as I'm concerned, the TUC should say, "Well, we're not interested in your laws."" ""Let's organise and defeat these people." That hasn't happened." "When you start a debate," ""Will we be able to build the next stage of massive power stations?"," "I don't believe that the current companies, one, can afford it, and have got the ability to actually coordinate and plan it." "They are all competing with each other across the whole country." "They can't sit down and actually say," ""We need one power station in Scotland, or, "We need a supplementary power station in the east coast of Britain."" "I think that's where the historical planning of one body that was responsible for the production of electricity planning could deliver." "Within three or four years, that had developed into an absolute farce and then a tragedy with repeated fatalities, large-scale loss of life in a number of different train crashes." "Effectively in 2002, the government was forced to step in and take the infrastructure company, Railtrack, back into administration, because it had gone bust." "There's this huge and complex web of financial debate, argument and blame and recrimination that goes round and round and round, every week of every year under the privatised railway in this country, and it's a nonsense." "People were proud to be a railwayman." "Very, very proud to be a railwayman." "There was a public-service ethos which was passed on to new people who started in the industry." "Now, what happened after privatisation is that a deliberate and concerted attempt has been made to erase that history within the railway workers." "So, for example, somebody recruited to work on the railway today isn't even taught to think of themselves as a railway worker." "We're losing an industry that we invented in this country and which people love and which young people need." "I mean, we've got a million young people unemployed in Britain today." "A million young people unemployed." "They should be being employed, some of them at least, learning how lo do railway engineering skills, railway operational skills, to deliver the kind of services that this country needs in order to develop a new, green public transport system." "In 2003, the market was liberalised." "Other companies could come in and collect mail from businesses who are posting it, sort it, then pass it on to Royal Mail to deliver." "What that has done is it's undermined Royal Mail's capacity to provide a universal service which is subsidised by business postings." "The cost of the universal service for everybody is no longer supported to that degree by what businesses do." "In simple terms, people used to get their mail earlier." "Now they get it later." "They used to have two deliveries." "Now they get one per day." "The reform of the health service is, of course, to bring it back into the marketplace and degrade it back again into making healthcare a commodity." "So it's not reform at all." "It started when Margaret Thatcher started contracting out domestics and porters and laundry services." "Again just the process of administering, asking people to bid for contracts costs money in and of itself to write the contract for what you want rather than just have domestics doing the cleaning." "But then to win the contract, you have to put the cheapest bid in." "So, the ward I worked on at the time, we had two full-time cleaners on in the morning and a part-time cleaner on in the evening." "When I finished at the hospital, they had a half a cleaner on in the morning and then one between about ten wards in the evening." "It wasn't cheaper when people get MRSA and infections which then might cost the whole of what you've saved on the contract on one person if they're in intensive care." "I mean, there was a real feeling of ownership about the NHS when it started." "People felt they were doing it themselves, that it was their possession." "And they've lost that." "So, the cost of running the health service, the admin cost, was about six percent before that started." "Then they moved up to about 12 percent." "Now they're heading in the direction of American costs for running the health service, anything between 18, 20, 25 percent." "You can see the politicians have chosen to waste a huge amount of money on marketising the service." "I've got a big picture of Aneurin Bevan I looked at every day." "I think, "Where are the people?" And What he says is," ""All the time the people have got the faith to fight for it."" "We've been out on the streets and people said, "They'll never privatise the NHS."" ""Why are you getting so up the wall?" "They won't do that."" "And people just didn't believe they would do it." "It seems to me there's a sort of blindness to the enormous advances that have been made in British medicine as a result of the NHS." "I mean, there are many things that have taught the rest of the world so far as the NHS was concerned." "This was a very inventive organisation with lots of new initiatives." "I do hope we don't go down the American system whereby the first thing you met, as you come in with broken legs or whatever, is someone with a clipboard who says, "Are you insured?"" "When there's money there, the private sector is happy to be there taking the cash, thank you, and paying its shareholders." "When the money isn't there, as we saw locally after only a couple of years of involvement in primary care, they were off." "People are ready to defend the National Health Service." "They do know about it." "They do know the rewards of it." "They do know about the care and the treatment they get." "They're all going there every day." "You can see it." "I can see it more than ever." "I've got a lot to be thankful for, and so has my wife, on the National Health Service." "I think it will happen." "I think they will understand the situation on the NHS." "That is the one institution from 1945 that needs to be defended." "We've lost most of the others, if not all the others, but the National Health Service, if they attack, the right, Tories, Lib Dems, attack the National Health Service, if we don't understand that we've got to do everything," "up to and including breaking the law to defend the National Health Service, then we're finished." "We were defending a flawed project." "This is the worm in the apple of 1945." "This wasn't workers' control." "This wasn't popular engagement with the control." "This wasn't controlled from the base up." "There weren't committees in every locality managing the council housing." "There weren't shop stewards running the steel industry or the coal industry." "This was a set of state bureaucrats replacing a set of corporate bureaucrats." "Whereas socialists are talking about the transformation of the economy into a different type of economy that's not driven by the market, but driven by the common needs of society." "I think that's the big difference that we're seeing." "If there's a need and there's no profit in it, the need goes unanswered." "A caring capitalism." "Miliband is talking about this socially responsible capitalism." "It's a bit like the Arabian phoenix, isn't it?" "Everyone's heard about it." "Nobody's ever seen one." "We have to face up to the fact that, again, it's the market." "It's the system that says that profit is the most important thing that makes the world go round that we have to..." "that we have to take on." "It's a hard struggle, but this system what we live under is absolutely rotten and corrupt as far as I'm concerned." "From top to bottom, it's rotten." "And the quicker it goes, the better." "In the face of the failure of the right, if you like, the neo-liberals and their assault on the public services, their failure terrible financial global failure at the moment of the market, we still are trying to make the case" "that actually we should go back to working together for the greater good." "And I think the NHS has been a terrific example of that, as have many things in this country;" "education and the welfare state." "What's so shocking is the people who are dismantling this at the moment are the people who grew up and benefited from that system." "The idea of socialism is weak in this country and the idea of capitalism is very strong." "Capitalism itself is not strong, it's falling apart, but the idea of capitalism is very strong." "The paradox in the situation is that the ideas which come together and which have traditionally been called socialism exist in a sort of atomised way right across the political spectrum." "When you see the Occupy people say that they are anti-capitalist, anti-free market, the corollary of that is that you're in favour of some kind of planning even if that's not an articulated view." "They want some kind of democratic control over the economy." "Thai is the essence of the socialist idea, whether or not you choose to call it socialist and whatever colour you paint it." "Well, I think we were hijacked." "The working-class organisations were hijacked by the middle class." "That's my opinion." "Especially the Labour Party." "The Labour Party was a working-class organisation at one time." "In no way, shape or form can you call the Labour Party a working-class organisation any more." "The working class haven't got any big organisations that can take the establishment on." "They don't realise that strength they've got, do they'?" "They don't realise that power they've got." "The working class can change the whole history." "As quick as... as quick as that." "They just don't realise." "They haven't grasped it." "One day, I think the dream that those miners had underground, before the war, will become a reality." "We will be able to take real control of our own lives." "We will have a manufacturing industry." "The day when you see our kids walking the streets of Caerphilly and walking the streets of Abercynon," "18 years of age and they've got their GCSEs, and they've got their hands in their pockets and their head down and they seem as if they've got no future and their eyes are dull," "I think those days will one day come to an end, coming out of the dream that those miners had so many years ago." "I am absolutely convinced that the older generation, rather than being a burden on society, has got an absolute duty to come forward and join with young people and talk to them and explain." "I say to pensioners, turn off the television, take their plugs out of their ears and start talking about what was the vision in 1945." "What did we want?" "How did we see it progressing?" "What did it mean, "from the cradle to the grave"?" "What did it mean to have common ownership and for sharing and communities?" "What does it mean?" "Start to rebuild that understanding of what sort of life we want." "I think we've got a real chance to do that." "Now, friends, this is the first time in the history of this country that a Labour movement with a socialist policy..."

"And, self-indulgent, rich men and women only grew in number while the pleas of poor peasants who could barely make ends meet, remained unanswered." "And at this time, there lived a woman of the netherworlds."

"I can't say that I don't know of it..." "These three exploited that situation" "...and swindled large sums from the villages of kiochi ...by running a "draft- exclusion" scam and then skipping out without a trace."

"Please find those three." "I hear you but, without knowing what they look like knowing their names alone won't be much help." "That is not true!" "I believe that you can do it, sir!"

"I don't believe that it is impossible..." "But... what exactly are you after?" "The 6th year of Meiji..." "I doubt that you had even been born yet." "It could be said that Karma can stain the unborn..." "All the young men of this nation, as of their seventeenth birthday will be registered for the draft, and assigned to the army or reserves."

"The new government sought to strengthen the nation through militarism believing that the modernization of Japan must be based on the development of military power similar to that of foreign superpowers." "However... the peasants did not consider it to be a reasonable measure and soon their discontent exploded in riots." "The end to these uprisings was nowhere in sight..." "Destruction, robbery, arson... and other acts of rebellion continued without end." "Many strange rumors circulated, the most famous being about the "Men in White"." "Men dressed in white were said to be the pawns of the new government who killed conscripts and collected their blood for sale to foreign nations."

"my baby..." "You don't even know whose child you're bearing!" "Should... should my baby be stillborn if that should happen, Otora..." "I'll kill you!" "But, tell me... why did those four commit such a hideous crime?" "For profit..." ""For profit?"" "They told the people that draftees could be excused from service by paying them a sum of 270 yen and thus they swindled the villagers out of tens of thousands of yen." "After splitting the money among themselves they fled from the village, as planned." "Shokei Tokuichi, who desired my body took me along with him to Tokyo." "In Tokyo, Tokuichi opened a little eatery." "I did as I was told, and waited for the right moment..." "I killed Tokuichi and was in the midst of hunting down the remaining three when I was arrested..." "Three more vengeances remain." "But..." "I've been sentenced to life in prison..." "I can no longer... exact my revenge... with my own hands." "Then, you mean for this child to you want this newborn to..." "That's why you kept saying you wanted a strong boy..." "Otora..." "I can't remember how many times you told me..." ""...you're a slut!"" "But that's all right... because it was true." "Because I wanted a child so much..." "I've..." "At the women's prison in Ichingaya and after I arrived here I acted like a mad bitch in heat I wantonly seduced men, and screwed one after another." "I knew this made you look upon me with disgust." "For me, there remain things left undone." "Even if I have to devote my next seven lives to it my vengeance..." "cannot be denied." "So I... must let this child wreak my vengeance for me." "I'll die... so my spirit can be embodied in her!" "That's the only... method of vengeance I have left." "Otora..." "I beg you..." "Okiku... please take care of this child." "You were born for vengeance..." "Such a poor child..." "A child of the netherworlds but, Yuki you must avenge us without fail your father... your big brother and me Yuki my..." "Sayo!" "Sayo!" "Sayo!" "Sayo!" "Some time later, Mikazuki Otora was released." "She took care of the baby with the help of Dokai, a priest and former liege vassal."

"Though born and raised as a child of the netherworlds human compassion was never absent from her heart." "Unforgettable memories of her mother overwhelmed her with sadness yet her journey of vengeance was far from over." "This day... marked the 20th anniversary of her mother Sayo's passing." "Chapter Two:" "Crying Bamboo Dolls of the Netherworlds" "Not many days later a letter arrived from the leader of the beggar clan, Matsuemon." "Takemura Banzo, one of the villains she sought, had been located." "Dad..." "I'll go sell all the Chikufujin I've made." "I don't know what to say..." "I am always making you work so hard." "What are you talking about...?" "There are so many orders that I can't keep up with the demand." "Is that so?" "Are they selling that well?" "Uh-huh." "You saw me?" "Why...?" "It doesn't matter." "They won't sell anyway." "Here..." "Keep it." "I made it." "Here you go." "Say..." "What's your name?" "Kobue." "Takemura Kobue" "Why?" "Good-bye." "As usual, here's your three yen." "Please count it." "It's correct, sir." "Oh, one more thing here..." "Take it." "Your customer for tonight is a prefectual officer and he's a very important client of mine too." "So... we expect the best from you." "I know that, sir." "Hey!" "Yessiree!" "Here we go!" "Kobue, is that you?" "Heh... it's you guys." "Who did you think it was?" "Whassup, good Takemura?" "You don't look too well." "We're here today representing the House of Hamakatsu..." "It doesn't look like Kobue is home yet." "She's out selling her wares." "She's probably shopping on her way back home." "What's so funny?" "Look wake up, why don't you?" "Look... do you really think that people are buying your Chikufujin?" "!" "You dumb asshole." "Your daughter, you see, is throwing everything she makes into the sea!" "But, Kobue brings home money..." "Do you wanna know where that money comes from?" "!" "Look... eight yen in all." "The due date passed long, long ago." "You got to be kidding me!" "It's all your fault to begin with." "You're making her sell herself!" "Oh, what a poor thing!" "She has to do it, to pay for her drunkard daddy's booze and medicine..." "Quiet!" "Kobue would never do such a thing!" "Here we go." "Place your bets!" "Place your bets, please!" "Place your bets." "Place your bets now, please." "Say... is that a girl travelling gambler?" "Yes, sir..." "Apparently, she's from Sanshuu." "An independent." "Said her name is "Oyuki..." Is she hot or what?" "!" "She sure gets a rise out of me!" "She's no ordinary mouse." "You shouldn't play..." "Quiet!" "All right!" "One, folks!" "One!" "One, folks!" "One, folks!" "Banzo!" "Hey, gimme a card." "Right, next round..." "Place your bets!" "Place your bets, please." "Place your bets, please." "All right!" "Four, folks!" "Four, folks!" "yeah!" "I got it!" "Four, folks!" "Four, folks!" "Place your next bets, please!" "Here we go." "All right." "Place your bets please." "Place your bets please." "Here we go." "Next bet..." "Here we go." "Bets please." "Bets please." "No more bets!" "Score!" "Hold it!" "Mr. Takemura... we need to talk!" "Please forgive me..." "Can't do it." "S..." "Spare me..." "Boss..." "Huh?" "Why don't we roll him up and throw him into the sea!" "Don't be in such a hurry." "First, we should torture him as much as we want." "P..." "Please forgive me!" "Y..." "You can have Kobue..." "Too late for that, you smartass!" "Fool...!" "Please wait." "As a professional, it is my fault that I did not detect his cheating." "Allow me to pay compensation." "It's none of your concern!" "Butt out!" "Just what the hell is going on?" "!" "What is that you want, stranger?" "I beg you please..." "I must ask you to spare his life, no matter what the cost." "Don't tell me that you knew that he was cheating?" "!" "Well, in any case..." "Masa..." "Kame..." "let him go." "Boss!" "We shouldn't cpmcern ourselves with trivialities like this all the time." "I appreciate this, sir." "You bastard!" "The next time you show up forget being rolled up and thrown into the sea you'll be shredded to bits and fed to the pigs!" "You bastard!" "Oh?" "What brings you here?" "If something happens, you should go to Tokyo." "Okiku of Tajire, in Ueno's 7th ward, can put you in touch with me." "Thanks, but I can't leave my dad here." "You're still hanging around?" "I owe you one for what you did for me earlier." "But, you know... it wouldn't really matter anyway wheter I lived or died..." "If it weren't for my daughter..." "By the way... why did you save my life?" "Because we have a little business to take care of, Takemura Banzo!" "Shall we go?" "Go?" "Where to?" "Who are you anyway?" "!" "I've come to take you away... to take you to where you truly belong." "Come now... it's time to start the journey of death." "Who..." "Who are you?" "Just who are you?" "What are you gonna do to me?" "Are you scared, Banzo?" "I bet you are." "A man like you has memories so gruesome that you can't forget them even if you want to." "What are you talking about?" "A long, long time ago you lived in the village of Kiochi." "That's what I'm talking about." "You, Tsukamoto Gishiro Kitashama Okono and Shokei Tokuichi..." "the four of you in order to swindle money from the unsuspecting villagers killed an innocent man and raped and tortured his wife for three days and three nights." "I know nothing!" "I know nothing about it!" "Look closely at my face." "Doesn't this face remind you of somebody somebody that you have raped?" "My name is Shurayuki." "There was a woman who died in a jail... who died cursing you." "I'm the daughter of Kashima Sayo." "I was wrong." "I was wrong." "They made me do it..." "I've never been able to forget it..." "even to this day!" "Please...!" "Where is Gishiro?" "Where os Okono?" "I don't know!" "I really don't know!" "Please forgive me!" "Please spare me!" "I will neither forgive nor spare you!" "Please..." "Please don't kill me..." "Don't slay me..." "I beg you... please..." "Please, I beg you..." "If I die... what happens to my daughter what about my daughter Kobue?" "Please!" "Please!" "For Kobue's sake..." "An eye for an eye!" "All life is transitory..." "the virtuous, eternal." "Having slain one of her enemies, it is now the break of dawn." "The sea assaulted the shore, as if it was reflecting Yuki's innermost feelings." "In this journey of vengeance, the end was receeding from view." "Chapter Three:" "Umbrella of Blood, Heart of Strewn Flowers" ""Tsukamoto Gishiro"" ""Tajire"" "It's just so unfortunate..." "When we heard from you that Gishiro was dead she didn't want to believe it, no matter what I said." "But, now that she's seen his tombstone with her own eyes well, what else can we do?" "It's just to bad..." "If only we had..." "If only we had gone searching much earlier..." "When did he die?" "Three years ago a shipwreck during a voyage to America, or so the story goes." "When he was alive, Gishiro was said to have been involved with foreigners, smuggling opium." "Three years ago?" "Yuki had just come to me to receive pickpocketing training." "The training I have received from the Reerend... and from you Auntie it's all so that I can personally avenge my mother's death." "Gishiro was the leader of the four villains..." "How I longed to destroy him stricking him down with the sword of vengeance, for my mother's sake." "Oyuki!" "Be strong..." "Don't you know that you've still got to face one more wrongdoer?" "!" "Sir Matsuemon..." "I beseech you..." "Please try to find Kitahama Okono as fast as you can." "I have my men working on it, but there's only so much we can do." "Looking for someone?" "We meet at last." "I've been looking for you everywhere." "What do you want from me?" "I'd like you to explain something." "That tombstone... belonged to a Tsukamoto Gishiro, did it not?" "There's nothing I can tell you." "I doubt that's true..." "You shredded flowers left as an offering to the dead something no one would do without a good reason." "So you had something against him..." "That man, that is." "It's none of your business." "My name is Ashiro Ryurei." "See, I publish a cheap little rag called "The People's Paper."" "I also write novels too, when I feel like it." "I guess you could say that I'm just a walking hunk of curiosity." "If something catches my attention I'll sniff out the truth, no matter what." "You sound like you're a stray dog." "Yes..." "If I find some leftover meat, then I'm doing well." "It's best if you stop bothering me from now on." "What makes you say that?" "That unwise curiosity of yours might cost you your life." "Is that a threat?" "If you like" "You know, people call me "the man of threats."" "People fear me because I use my newspaper as a weapon basically I'm a dirty blackmailer." "So. when somebody threats me instead that makes me even more curious." "What is it that you want?" "Please don't think that I'm trying to threaten you..." "I just want to know what's going on." "Leave me alone." "Shu" "Shura (Netherworlds" "Shura Yuki (Netherworlds Snow" "Shura Yuki Hime (Netherworlds Snow Lady)" "By Ashio Ryurei" "It was the sixth year of Meiji, that long ago." "A tragedy befell an innocent family..." "gruesome, horrific, and hellish." "They were victims of a blood-chilling plot." "Time has passed, but who will exact vengeance?" "Time has passed, but what dark deed remains unavenged?" "Whose tears fill the river of revenge?" "Whose sould is filled with turbulent Karma?" "Who kills without premeditation, without any thought for her own safety?" "Knowing neither forgiveness nor compassion she traveled the land, seeking out her enemies and left their corpses withou a second glance." "Her name was Shurayuki..." "the child of vengeance." "Certainly..." "The person who told Ashiro Ryurei about you... was indeed I!" "Why did you have to, sir?" "!" "I just cannot comprehend... why you did that, Reverend." "Don't you see?" "It's bail, to lure out the one villain that remains:" "Kitahama Okono." "Matsuemon's men are not without their limits." "However... should Ryurei's novel become widely read I'm certain that Okono will read it." "And, when she does... she will surely take action." "That will be... the moment when you can at last destroy her." "Besides, you see I've come to really like..." "this Ryurei fellow." "He's using his talents as a writer to express his hostility and malice towards the political system." "He may be a rogue, but I felt strongly that he's be the ideal man to write your story, a tale of the netherworlds." "But, will Kitahama Okono take action...?" "Will she reveal herself?" "You must wait and see..." "You must be patient." "Yuki, you must not rush things." "If you must endure a moment of peace and tranquility when the winds of carnage do not blow the snow of the netherworlds your Bhudda will not punish you." "...to Mount Kazusa from Mount Kazusa, looking into the valley a little child picks up a pebble..." "Born to settle and old score." "Born to seek vengeance." "Yet, listening to the children sing, she could not help but be moved." "As she continued to travel her lonely path the glimmers of the past became dimmer and dimmer." "Just tell me, please that this is merely fiction!" "That it's all made up, just to make it interesting reading!" "No..." "I've written nothing but the truth." "You're not lying..." "It's all truth." "Then..." "Oyuki... killed my dad..." "Just who are you?" "I'm..." "Banzo's..." "I'm Takemura Banzo's daughter." "This is awful!" "Just awful!" "So now we have... another girl seeking vengeance." "Born under unlucky stars, both of you you... and her." "Wait!" "Wait, why don't you?" "!" "There's no way..." "No way can you understand how I feel!" "I do!" "I can understand..." "Are you..." "Ashio Ryurei?" "Yeah, so what do you want from me?" "Because your "Lady Snowblood" story seems all-too real the people have become confused and riotous." "So, we must question you." "Come with us to headquarters!" "You've got to be kidding me..." "Silence!" "Take him!" "Quiet!" "Hey!" "We don't got all day!" "Who is it?" "Who are you?" "Takemura Kobue." "Kobue?" "Takemura?" "You must be Banzo's..." "Did you come here to see Yuki?" "I wouldn't ever want to see her!" "Then what brings you here?" "Ashio Ryurei got arrested by some cops." "I didn't know that there was a police station there, though inside a restaurant called "Kagetsu", that is..." "Wait!" "Wait a second!" "Wait, I said!" "Take that!" "You bastard!" "You fuckin' retard!" "Get up!" "Scum!" "There!" "C'mon!" "Out with it!" "Where's Shurayuki?" "!" "I spent a cosiderable amount of time reading the story in your paper." "Clearly, it's based on a real event." "There's no way someone who didn't know Shurayuki could've written it." "Kitahama Okono..." "So you've revealed yourself, just as I expected." "So, the money you pocketed from that ruthless murder twenty years ago paid for this shady little hideout of yours, eh?" "That sure is nice to know." "Silence!" "Tell me!" "Where's Shurayuki?" "!" "Tell me!" "Tell me!" "Tell me!" "I don't know!" "I'm not in touch with her!" "You stubborn fool!" "Don't hold back!" "Go ahead and beat this scumbag!" "Dumb ass!" "Suffer!" "Suffer a lot more!" "Suffer!" "There!" "That should be enough." "Let's hold off for the time being." "But..." "He's no good to us if he's dead." "We'll use him as bait." "Bait?" "Yes." "Shurayuki will, without a doubt, soon show up." "She's here!" "So you've come, Shurayuki!" "I've been waiting for you." "Kitahama Okono... as last..." "at last we meet!" "That's right!" "I deliberately acted just as you hoped I would." "Thunder-Sand Bomb!" "What?" "!" "Thunder-Sand?" "!" "Hold your breath!" "Hold your breath!" "Be careful!" "Shurayuki!" "Oyuki..." "Okono..." "Has she escaped?" "!" "It's all done now, Yuki your vengeance... everything." "Is it really over?" "Is it supposed to feel like this?" "It is over..." "It's all done now." "Just forget it all." "Can the netherworld's snow, soaked in bloody carnage, regain it's purity...?" "You were born inside a jail, a child of vengeance..." "How can you live like a normal human being, Yuki?" "I do remember from the moment I was born..." "I remember everything I saw..." "I can still picture it before my eyes..." "That's why my mother's vengeance is my own." "This revenge... is mine." ""Chapter Four:"" "Just as I thought... you are alive after all." "I was hoping that I was only imagining things..." "Why... did you fake your deah?" "Who are you talking about?" "If you're talking about a wretch named Tsukamoto Gishiro, he's dead." "He died when his ship foundered three years ago..." "That's not true!" "Gishiro is alive!" "He's right here!" "Right in front of my eyes!" "The boat that you were on..." "yes, it did sink..." "But... as the police were after you for opium smuggling the shipwreck provided you with a wonderful opportunity to fake your own death!" "You survived... and continue to engage in shady dealings." "You haven't changed..." "You haven't changed at all since you ran away ten years ago." "Why did you come here?" "To make you forget about things about Tsukamoto Gishiro..." "and the man you saw..." "You must forget them all." "Your Shurayukihime story is at an end." "With Kitahama Okono's death, it's all over." "There's no more to write about." "Are you threatening me?" "It's so like you." "No." "Just giving advice." "Let me tell you something..." "These days I'm mostly involved in the weapons trade." "Even the government can't buy weapons without my involvement." "I believe that Japan will soon be at war." "Japan is streangthening its military forces and preparing them for the conflict and I'm lending them a hand, helping to expand the Empire." "I don't have time for some silly, twenty-year old tale vengeance." "The place where I conduct most of my business is the Rokumeikan." "It's supposed to be the place where we negotiate with foreign powers and debate the use of Western ideas to modernize our society." "But, what really goes on there are nightly parties for the elite members of our society who indulge themselves in self- gratification and hedonism." "Despite this, society is changing." "And I will float with the tide all the time harvesting more money and power!" "It's fine to be concerned with justice and conscience, or upholding principles yet, in the end, it's all nothing more than empty words, at least in this filthy hole." "Forget newspapers and all that, why don't you?" "If you feel like it, you can come work for me." "I cut my ties to you all those many years ago." "Oh, well." "But, let me say this..." "Don't continue to stick your nose in where it isn't welcome." "Stay out!" "That's my final... advice, from the bottom of my heart." "Ryu..." "Gishiro is alive..." "What?" "He was just here, before you came." "Then... that man in the rickshaw..." "Wait!" "Please wait!" "He won't get away..." "I'll finish him, I swear it!" "And, listen, there's one more thing there's one more thing I have to tell you." "Gishiro is Tsukamoto Gishiro is my father." "When I found out that one of the scum you were looking after was my own father what kept me going was the fact that I thought he was dead." "If it weren't for that, I couldn't have written your story of carnage." "But... when Kitahama Okono was killed at the moment, I realized who had actually killed her." "That's why I couldn't tell you..." "There was no way that I could've told you." "I won't be writing "Shurayukihime" anymore." "There's no way that I can write it anymore." "But..." "Chapter Four:" "The House of Joy, The Final Hell." ""Charity Masquerade"" "May I have this dance?" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Oh, yes!" "Yuki!" "Wait!" ""Stay out!" "That's my final... advice, form the bottom of my heart."" "Damn it!" "This is so typical of him..." "It doesn't matter if someone dies..." "as long as his hands remain clean." "No matter what happens, he'll have his way." "Ryu!" "tsukamoto Gishiro..." "I'll kill you!" "For twenty years... all these twenty years..." "It's all I've thought about..." "It's all that mattered."

"We'd like a complimentary continental breakfast." "And don't even think about skimpin' on them baby muffins." "We don't have any baby muffins." "You know, Jill I been thinking." "Get it out." "I..."

"Come on, Puss." "What happened between you and Humpty that was so bad?" "I am afraid with me and Humpty the scars are too deep." "It all started a long time ago." "Oh, no." "You really don't have to tell me your whole life story, please." "You may want to sit." "It is at times quite... painful." "OK, here we go." "It was a year in which the rain had not fallen." "The wind was big and the basket was small." "For days, I bounced along a hungry little kitten with no milk, no mama, and no litter box." "Until I came to rest at a home for lost children." "Her name was Imelda." "And, like a mother, she took me into her heart and raised me as her own." "Silencio." "Silencio." "She was an angel of kindness." "¡Silencio!" "Most of the time." "I'd like to introduce a new boy joining us." "It's OK, pequeño." "You show with the face." "Go on." "And that was the moment I met..." "Humpty Alexander Dumpty." "Hey, Whiskers!" "You're sitting in Little Boy Blue's chair." "Oh, come on." "Is this necessary?" "Why don't you pick on somebody your own size?" "Who asked you, Breakfast?" "Remember what Imelda says, Boy Blue:" "If you're going to blow your top, you blow your horn instead, right?" "Let's spin him." "Please don't spin me." "Do not spin me!" "Not again!" "No!" "I'm going to yolk!" "Even though he took my beans, the egg stood up for me, and I decided then that I would always have his back." "Wow!" "That was very impressive." "Thanks!" "Hey, egg boy!" "There was something about this strange little egg that intrigued me." "Oh... it's you." "I've been collecting for months now." "You never know when you're gonna get lucky." "You know what I mean?" "Magic beans... is what they are." "Hello?" "You gonna tell all the other kids that I believe in magic now?" "Is that what you're gonna do?" "No?" "What's your name?" "You don't say much, do you?" "I think I'll call you Sparky." "Whiskers?" "Zoltar!" "How about Puss?" "Humpty's mind was full of imagination and invention." "What is that, 50 feet down there?" "Here we go." "Give me a..." "Puss!" "Look at me, Puss!" "I'm flying!" "He spoke of legends and adventures beyond my wildest dreams." "When I find those magic beans, they'll grow a vine straight up into the clouds, where a terrible and a fearsome giant hoards his greatest treasure the Golden Goose." "Oh, the Golden Goose." "Just one." "Just one of her golden eggs..." "could set me for life." "It's my destiny, Puss." "I can't really explain it, but I just feel like I belong up there." "Oh, boy." "This is awkward." "This is kind of a solo dream here." "I don't need any dead weight, you know, holding me down." "What are you doing?" "Oh, man, that's good." "The eye thing that you're doing, that is really splendid." "OK, let me just think for a second." "All right..." "OK." "This is crazy, but I am considering a partnership." "I just need to know one thing." "Can you commit?" "Sí..." "I can commit." "Oh, you can talk!" "Could you help me up?" "OK..." "First rule of Bean Club you do not talk about Bean Club." "Second rule of Bean Club is you don't talk about Bean Club." "You ready?" "Ready." "From this day forth, it shall be known..." "Never alone, always together..." "Humpty and Puss..." "Brothers forever." "And from that moment on, we were united on a great adventure to find the magic beans." "Help me up." "Egg me." "Humpty was the brains..." " Good gracious!" " I never saw him!" " That really hurt!" " ...and I was the skill." "I'm cracked!" "We got red beans, green beans, coffee beans, lima beans... but no magic beans." "Would you care for a jelly bean?" "Thank you." "Finding them meant everything to us." "I almost forgot the most important thing." "That's me and you, Puss." "Me and you." "But we never did find them." "And, as years passed, the quest for magic beans seemed more and more like the dreams of a child." "As teenagers, Humpty and I looked for trouble and often found it." "Third time this month, Imelda." "Next time is jail time." "They're just kids." "They are thieves." "You are better than this." "I believe in you with all my heart." "Please do not let me down." "I hate this place." "I cannot wait for us to get out of here." "Throw a rock." "It'll make you feel better." "Oh, boy." "We should go." "On instinct, I reacted." "He saved the Comandante's mother!" "He saved the Comandante's mother!" "You saved my mother." "Señor Puss... he is a hero!" "Today we see that courage and bravery come in all sizes!" "Little did I know that one moment would change my whole life." "These are for you, my boy." "Wear them as a symbol of honor..." "and justice." "I will make you proud, Mama." "You already have, my Puss In Boots." "How strange it was to give a cat boots but, whoa..." "I looked good!" "And as the light of my path grew brighter Humpty's road grew ever darker." "Gracias, Comandante." "Be careful of the company you keep." "I know!" "I know, I never should've tried something without you." "You're not stealing lollipops anymore, Humpty." "This is getting serious." "You're right!" "We have to be smarter about this." "Here, look." "We need to think bigger." "I've been casing the silversmith and it's perfect." "You and me, in and out, 50 seconds tops." "Will you put that away!" "This is our home." "These people have done nothing to us." "Our home?" "OK, yeah, I get it now." "You get some fancy boots and now you're too good for me?" "That is not true." "We weren't born here." "We're orphans!" "All we got is each other, you understand?" "We are better than this." "But we're partners." "We are brothers." "But I am not stealing anymore." "But Humpty would not give up so easily." "I'm in trouble, Puss!" "It's Boy Blue and his gang." "I owe them some money." "They're coming for me." "Just get me over this wall." "I gotta go." "Help me up the wall." "Get me up the wall." "Hurry!" "Hurry!" "OK, I've got everything." "We did it." "Come on, let's go!" "How could you do this to me?" "!" "I did you a favor!" "We can finally get out of here!" "This is the money of the people!" "This is all they have!" "You disgrace those boots!" "Comandante, please, I can explain!" "Arrest them!" "Hurry up!" "Get to the bridge!" " You tricked me!" " I had to!" "You left me no choice!" "Mama..." "Pequeño." "Watch out!" "Oh, no." "Puss." "I can't get up." "Puss!" "Help me." "I can't get up!" "Freeze!" "Puss, save me!" "Save yourself." "We got you." "I lost everything I cared about that day." "My brother." "My honor." "My home." "All I thought about was the disappointment in my mama's eyes." "And I have been running ever since." "The egg betrayed me." "His lies cost me everything." " Hey!" " I'm awake!" "You think I don't want to fix the past?" "I can't get down." "Listen." "A day..." "A day doesn't go by when I don't think about what I lost." "I lost my best friend." "My only friend." "And I get it now." "I got greedy and desperate and I let you down." "I let myself down." "All I'm asking for, Puss, is a second chance." "Give me that second chance and I'll help you pay back San Ricardo." "Please, Puss." "Let me show you what our friendship meant to me." " I will do it." " That's great." "I will do this for my mother and for San Ricardo... not for you." "We are not partners and we are not friends." "OK." "I promise this time, I will not let you down." "Yes!" "I think we got our Bean Club back." "Humpty's plan better work." "Listen, you just need to worry about your part." "Don't screw it up." " What?" " Again with the mask?" "I don't need style advice from Mr. Dusty Boots." "Come on, Puss." "Now!" "Our biological clocks are ticking', darlin'." " You gotta look at the big picture." " What's your problem?" "Listen." "I put a lot of work into my body." "I look good, and I am not just gonna throw that away." " Hey, hey, hey." " What?" " We're gonna start small." " Look." "Let's just pretend you have a baby." "Excellent." "I don't have time to be at home with no diapers and baby socks." "You don't have to, Jill." "I'll be the stay-at-home dad." "We got ten hungry piggies, there in the back." "You can practice on them." "Just pull over, feed them." " That little Hamhock's my favorite." " You've got to hurry up." "He's a cute little bugger." "Why are you not using your claws?" "Would you please just shut up!" "I'm on it!" " Just use your claws!" " Be quiet." " Your claws!" " I don't have any claws, all right?" "!" "Was that Hamhock?" "There, there." "Sleepy, sleepy, big, fat piggy." "Remember when we had to pretend we had that monkey one time...?" "You babysit." " Soft paws." " When did we have a monkey?" "Well?" "...what happened last time..." "You sat on it, Jack." "Hello, beans of legend." "Let's go." "Well, well, well." "Look what we have here, Jill." "You messed with our baby." "And you took my beans." "Sausage bomb!" "You're gonna pay for this!" "Soul-sucking cats!" "Signal the egg!" "Yes!" " OK." " Ready." " Set." " Go!" "Oh, my God!" "All right, cat." "Give me them beans." "Is it true a cat always lands on its feet?" "No!" "That is just a rumor spread by dogs!" "Well, let's find out." "See?" "I told you I wouldn't let you down!" "You think this is over?" "Hey, that was close!" "Now!" "We just got to make it to that bridge!" "Hang on!" " Humpty!" "There is no bridge!" " Trust me." "Humpty!" "We're going to die!" "I hate cats." "This is war!" "Giant's castle here we come." "I must hand it to the egg." "This was a team effort." "Humpty still has his claws..." "I mean, flaws." "That was what I meant, not claws." "He's not a cat." " Not to say there's anything wrong..." " I don't want to talk about it." "Got it." "OK, we should be close!" "Keep your eyes out for any strange cloud activity!" "I am called Kitty Softpaws because I'll steal you blind and you'll never know I was there." "Kitty?" "You are not as good as they say." "You're better." "I will respect your privacy." "OK." "I'll tell you." "I was just a stray but I had beautiful claws." "One day, a really nice couple took me in." "Gave me milk every morning." "Loved me." "Maybe I scratched their curtains or played too rough with the hamster." "I don't know why they did it." "But they took my claws." "Cat people are crazy." "Stop the coach!" "I think this is it!" "Can you believe this, Puss?" "After all these years!" "Here." "I want you to plant them." "That... is a strange cloud." "OK!" "This is it!" "It's happening, hurry!" "This way!" "Good, good." "Come on, come on, come on." "Twenty-three divided by cloud depth." "Hole!" "Right here." "Now place the beans." "Place the beans carefully, please." "Not on top of each other." "The magic is very delicate." "OK, good." "Very good." "Now just stand back." "What's happening here?" "Maybe the magic rubbed off in your pocket?" " That's impossible." " OK, OK." "Let's not panic." "You know, I read somewhere that plants have feelings." "So, come on..." "say something nice to it." "OK." "Let me just think for a second." "Hi, little plant." "Guys?" "Humpty!" " I do not see him." "Do you see him?" " I don't see him anywhere." "You sound weird." "It's the thin air!" "Come on in!" "It feels great!" "The cloud, it tickles my nose." "That's because they effervesce!" "Who knew?" "Come on." "Gotcha!" "Meow." "Hey, Puss." "What do you think?" "Do I shave?" "Let me show you something." "Somewhere down there, there are two little kids," "I don't know, maybe orphans, and they're laying on a hill, staring at the clouds, dreaming about the future." "That was me and you, Puss." "Me and you." "Boys!" "You might want to take a look at this." "The giant's castle." "OK, time to suit up." "Humpty!" "I'll fit right in with the golden eggs." "Brilliant or what, huh?" "Humpty, you're not wearing underwear!" "What?" "Are you embarrassed?" "I'm not." "Puss, remember when everyone was laughing at Bean Club?" "And who is laughing now?" "We are!" "Wow!" "That is our target." "Hey, you don't sound like an elf anymore." "It's because the air pressure in here is normal." "Let's go." "So here is the plan:" "You two get the golden eggs, I will fight the giant." "There's no giant to fight." "The giant's been dead for years." " What?" "!" " You didn't do the reading, did you?" "Jack and the Beanstalk, chapter 14, "Giant Takes a Big Dirt Nap."" "Ankle burn." " What was that?" " They call it the Great Terror." "It's the monster that guards the Golden Goose." "Legend has it that if you look at it, you'll turn to stone." "But nobody really knows because nobody's walked away from it alive." "Follow me and keep quiet." "Shh!" "Humpty!" "I can't help it." "Everything's rubbing and pinching!" "I need powder!" "How are we gonna get across?" "Champagne." "Cheers!" "Do not worry." "I will protect you." "What are you gonna do?" "Hit it in the head with a guitar?" "Please." "Stop bringing up the guitar." "Catch me!" "Hurry!" "Hide!" "Don't look at it!" " Humpty!" "Be quiet!" " I'm hyperventilating!" "I said I couldn't breathe and then you zipped the thing over my mouth!" "You gotta get it together." "Come on!" "OK." "Look at this." "It's egg paradise." "It's so beautiful, I feel like I belong here." "Golden eggs." "Grab as many as you can." "I thought they were going to be like chicken size." "Can you imagine laying one of these?" "Ouch!" "Puss!" "How are we supposed to get these out of here?" "I don't know." "Oh, my!" "The Golden Goose." "Just look at her." "Isn't she beautiful?" "My sweet darling." "I think she likes you." "Let's just take her." "Wait a minute." "This is the goose of legend." "We don't know what happens if we take her." "I know what happens if we don't take her, we got nothing." "Guys, guys." "It's a gold pooper." "We're taking it!" "Almost there!" "Hang on!" "Hang on!" "It's coming!" "Run!" "Kitty!" "What are you doing?" "Hang on!" "Come here, you." "Got you!" "She's mine now!" "Hello!" "Oh, no!" "Fly, little gosling, fly!" "No!" "It's not supposed to be this way!" " Puss?" " No." "I'm sorry." "Thanks, Ginger." "We should maybe cut that down." "Look at that." "You finally got that family you wanted, Jack." "Did you hear that?" "I think he just called me Daddy." " He looks just like you, Jack." " Thank you." "Well, what is it?" "I do believe that's our cue." "To paying back San Ricardo!" "To being rich!" "¡Olé!" "You." "Me?" "Yeah, yeah, baby!" "One, two, cha-cha-cha!" "Three, four, cha-cha-cha!" "One, two..." "What?" "!" "There is one word for you, Kitty Softpaws:" "Me-wow!" "I know you have quite a reputation with the ladies, Mr. Friskie Two-Times." "I've also been known as the..." "Furry Lover!" "But that was before I met you." "You don't know me, Puss." "I'm not who you think I am." "I'm all about the score." "Come on." "Look me in the eyes and tell me all you care about is the gold." "Puss..." "Kitty..." "Oh, my God!" "New partners!" "Do not fall for his animal magnetism." "You stay focused." "What?" "!" "So..." "I have been thinking, Miss Softpaws, that when we go our separate ways, we can go our separate ways together." "Puss, you have to go, now." "You do not have to push me away anymore." "You can trust me." "Give it up for the legends of San Ricardo, Humpty and Puss!" "We did it!" " I'm calling it a night, guys." " Kitty!" "Stay up with us." "No, I feel a... hairball coming on." "OK, yeah." "Have fun with that!" "We should give her some privacy." "I never thought we would get to here." "After all we went through to pull this off, together." "It is good to have my brother back." "Yep." "Sure is." "Well, we have a big day tomorrow." "Pretty exciting stuff." "We should get some rest." "Good night, Humpty." "Canasta!" "I am still alive!" "Jack and Jill." "Kitty?" "Humpty?" "I will find you." "Get out of here!" "Be gone!" "What do you want?" "Gold?" "I have gold!" "Jack, egg's trying to bribe us." "With our own gold." "Come on now, all we want is a little breakfast." " No, no, please!" " How do you like your eggs, pumpkin?" "Humpty, no!" "Hello, Puss." "Surprise!" "What is going on?" "It's a surprise party, and the surprise is on you." "Looks like the cat's out of the bag." "You were in cahoots?" "!" "Oh, yeah!" "They all work for me." "I spent a lot of time in prison preparing for this." " You set me up." " Oh, yeah, I set you up." "Of course." "You think this was all about getting the gold and clearing your name?" "This little adventure was about one thing." "Revenge." "You never knew it, Puss..." "but I was always there." "You wanted to repay an old debt, Puss?" "Well, so did I." "Why would you do this?" "You left me on that bridge!" "You abandoned me when I needed you the most." " What happened to "brothers forever"?" "!" " I trusted you!" "Well, now you're finally gonna know what it feels like, you know, to trust someone and have them stab you in the back." "Guards!" "Puss In Boots, you're under arrest for the robbery of the San Ricardo Bank!" "Consider this the final meeting of Bean Club." "I should scramble you with onions!" "You should never have come back." "¡Pequeño!" "Wait." "Do not fight them, please." "Mama!" "Listen to me." "I can explain." "No." "Puss, no more running." "Please stop breaking my heart and face what you have done." "I'm sorry, Mama." "I let you down." "Paws where we can see them!" "Turn around... slow." "Slower!" "Step into the carrier... quiet-like." "Attention!" "Attention, everyone!" "If you could just come in a little closer." "Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you... the Golden Goose of legend!" "Kitty." "Not you, too?" "Gold for everyone!" "We got some fresh, hot gold here, people!" "Step right up!" "Get it hot!" "¡Huevos!" "¡Huevos!" "¡Huevos!" "One hat." "One belt." "And two boots once a symbol of honor." "One bottle of catnip?" "It is for my glaucoma." "This is where you belong, outlaw." "And this is where you will stay..." "forever." "No, no." "Don't stop on my account." "Well, it looks like the egg got what he wanted." "You're talking about Humpty?" "Don't say his name!" "I used to share this cell with that smelly thing." "Happiest day of my life was when he left." "Till I realized he stole my magic beans." "Wait, wait, wait!" "You had the beans?" "Who are you?" "Hey!" "What's your name?" "Andy Beanstalk!" "My friends call me Jack." "I traded the family cow for them beans." "Course'n, it wasn't my family's cow." "It was some other family's family cow." "That's why I got eight to ten." "Always know which cow is yours." "Crazy man." "Wake up!" "What else do you know?" "We're all goners, thanks to that little stinky!" "I told him not to take the goose, but all he wanted was his revenge!" "Don't take the goose." "Why?" "The Great Terror!" "That's the Golden Goose's mama." "Oh, no." "And she will be out for blood when she comes back for her baby." "Guard!" "San Ricardo is in terrible danger!" "You must listen to me!" "Quiet, you!" "Shut up." "Open the door." "Drop the weapon." "Very good." "Step aside." "No." "Diablo Gato!" "Nice try." "I hope you can forgive me." "Apology accepted!" "I don't really have time for you." "I have to save the town from the Great Terror!" "Wait, Puss!" "Don't you see?" "I'm here because..." "I am here because you made me realize that there is something I care about more than gold." "Something?" "OK." "Someone." "He's about two feet tall, wears high heels." "Handsome?" "He's very handsome." "A real beefcake?" " A stallion?" " Yes." " Tiger?" " Oh, brother." "But this does not make us even." "Freeze!" "Yes, it does." "No, no, no, it doesn't." "I saved you!" "You owed me one." "You didn't tell me about Humpty." "So now you owe me two." " You're a lot of work." " I know." "But I am worth it!" "You are not getting away, Puss In Boots!" "Wrong boots." "Kitty!" "Now we're even!" "This is your San Ricardo weather report." "Chances of a giant goose destroying the town one hundred percent." "Never alone, always together..." "Humpty and Puss..." "Brothers forever." "Come on, sweetie." "Let's get out of here before Mama shows up." "I should make you into an egg salad sandwich!" "That is disgusting!" "Give me the goose, Humpty." "No can do, I'm afraid." "See, the mama's on her way, and when she gets here, it's bye-bye San Ricardo and everything you ever cared about!" "Revenge on me is one thing, but why Imelda?" "Why the orphanage?" "This is our home." "You mean your home." "I never belonged here." "We had a plan to get out of here, but then you became a hero and you picked this place over me." "You left me with nothing." "Humpty..." "I'm sorry I hurt you." "But do not take it out on these people." "You are better than this!" " No, I'm not." " Oh, come on!" "I know the real Humpty." "The way you saw the world!" "The inventor!" "The dreamer!" "What happened to that guy?" "I..." "I think it's too late." "It is never too late to do the right thing." "Together we can save San Ricardo!" "I can forgive you, Humpty..." "if you help me now." "Really?" "After everything I put you through?" "Prove to me there is still a good egg in you." "I'll try." "Goggles, check." "Get the baby over the bridge." "I'll get the mother to follow." "OK." "Give me a..." "Puss!" "Mama Goose!" "Wait!" "Just follow me and I will lead you to your baby." "No!" "Not that way!" "Pequeño, help!" "Hang on!" "That's my boy!" "Come with me, Mama Goose." "I know where your baby is." "Here." "Look!" "Humpty, pick up the pace!" "I'm trying, Puss!" "I'm trying!" "Sorry, egghead, we want more than just eggs." "So how about you give us that goose!" "Humpty!" "Get her off!" " Nice moves." " What would you do without me?" "Freeze!" "Comandante!" "I can explain?" "Gato, you are going back to jail if it's the last thing I do!" "Humpty, hurry!" "We're almost there." "We're almost there!" " Puss, help!" " Humpty, hang on!" "Puss!" "Here we are again, right, Puss?" "I will not leave you behind this time, Humpty." "I'm sorry, Puss." "I've made a mess out of everything." "I'm a rotten egg." "I'm not a person." "I'm not a bird." "I'm not even a food." "I don't know what I am." "You are what you have always been." "My brother." "Brothers forever." " You can't save us both." " Yes, I can!" "Just hang on!" "Puss, you have to save the baby, or the mama will destroy San Ricardo." "It's the right thing to do." "I will not let you go, Humpty." "I know you won't." "So I won't make you choose." "Humpty!" "I'm very sorry." "She's OK." "Humpty?" "I always knew that you were good inside." "Goodbye, Humpty." " Yeah, I think it's wonderful..." " And I got a goose egg." "It's him." "Puss In Boots." "He saved us from the giant goose!" "His sword is like lightning!" "They say he has ten lives." "His boots are made of the finest Corinthian leather." "He only drinks whole milk." "Good leche." "He's no outlaw." "He saved us!" "Meow?" "A gift for you, Mama." "I have to go." "The soldiers are coming for me." "I am so proud of you, my son." "Today, you faced the past with bravery and honor." "You earned those boots." "And the people know that you are San Ricardo's greatest hero." "I did it for you, Mama." "You will always be in my heart." "And you in mine." "¡Gato!" " There he is!" " I see him!" "I will see you again, Kitty Softpaws!" "Sooner than you think." "She is a bad kitty." "This is the story of a cat who became a hero." "An outlaw dedicated to justice." "And a lover of beautiful women." "A great... great lover." "Really." "It is crazy." "I am Puss In Boots!" "And my name would become..." "legend!" "Meow."

"I can't beat you." "The FBI kicked me out for trying." "I want you to consider becoming Echo's handler." "Everything's going to be all right." "Now that you're here." "She's not going to...?" "Glitch?" "She's fine, Agent Ballard." "My head is on fire." "All you had to do was remember who you were." "I remember everything." "I've been many people." "Do you know who's real?" "Caroline." "Will you help me?" "Goodness gracious, but it is good to be out of doors." "It certainly is." "And aren't little sister and aunt Sheila having a time, though." "What a healthsome and robust young lady you are, too." "You better watch out, aunt Sheila." "Little sister's playing to win!" "No use in moaning about it." "What?" "Me?" "Why I'd love to join." "All right." "Don't think I'll be much match for little sister!" "Now watch this drive." "Aunt Sheila!" "That's not very sportsmanlike to just walk off because you don't like the way the game is going, is it?" "Right when it's my turn to play, everyone wants to quit." "Well, not this time." "Oh!" "Damn it!" "Aunt Sheila!" "This... is not how we play the game!" "Guess we have to find a new Aunt Sheila." "Echo?" "I'm Echo." "Uh... hi." "I wa..." "I was looking for you." "I'm glad." "Would you like, um... a towel?" "Yes, thank you." "I'm wet." "Good day." "Uh, treatment." "Would you like a treatment?" "Yes, please." "I enjoy my treatments." "Shall I dress?" "Yes, dress would be good." "And Mr. Ballard has been given his engagement?" "He has." "And any progress on locating our troubled missing employee?" "She's not really missing, is she?" "She left." "Well, I call that missing." "I call that leaving." "One doesn't just leave this place." "Claire did." "Oh, Claire now, is it?" "Dr. Saunders." "Dr. Saunders?" "Where is Dr. Saunders, please?" "She's not here, Victor." "There is a man..." "he's not his best." "Dr. Saunders can help him." "Thank you, Victor." "We'll help him." "And we can also keep looking for Dr. Saunders, yes?" "How's the patient?" "Uh, not complaining." "Considering he was hit by a car." "Have we determined yet if the condition is reversible?" "I have to finish mapping his neural landscape, but if I can figure out a way to sneak up behind his reticular activating system, give it a goose, that might do it." "It could also give him a man reaction." "I choose not to hear that." "Do we really want to wake this guy up?" "Mr. Langton, have you no charity?" "We are working to reunite a desperate family with their wayward loved one." "By wayward, do you mean that they've been looking for him ever since he skipped his last bail hearing?" "A bail hearing over a minor matter which has since been resolved." "And by resolved, do you mean..." "Yes, yes." "A judge was bought off." "There is no need to continue to translate me." "In any event, Bradley Karrens is not only a valued client, he happens to be a major shareholder in our parent organization." "If we can apply our resources to resolving his nephew's slight medical condition, we do it." "Report any progress." "See?" "We're doing good." "Uh-huh." "Uh-oh." "Uh, Boyd?" "So your client is an Edmond Gossen." "He's a liberal arts professor at Clairfield College." "Echo is being imprinted as one of his students." "What's the "R" stand for?" "That's the engagement designation." ""R" means romance." "As in R-rated?" "Great." "So she's the sex fantasy for some egghead academic who can't get one of his real students to sleep with him." "Don't you just feel like dancing?" "Not overly." "You know what it is?" "Normally at this time," "I'm at yoga disco." "So my body's just sort programmed to do this." "She's not wrong." "What is it, Thursday?" "Tell me I didn't miss Gossen's lecture." "He's hard enough to understand even when you're there." "You're fine." "Paul here is going to see to it that you get there on time." "Oh, thanks, Paul." "I'm Kiki." "Kiki." "First, Paul is going to take you on a little spree." "Shopping or killing?" "Joke." "Good news on the coma front?" "Uh... yeah." "Good news is that he's in a coma." "I beg your pardon?" "Just show her what you showed me." "This is a brain..." "a healthy brain." "Frankly, an overly smart brain." "It's my brain." "And this is Terry Karrens' brain." "See these dark areas?" "How they extend all the way out to here?" "You know why that looks like that?" "That's because Terry Karrens doesn't use that part of his brain." "And that'd be where you find stored such things as empathy, compassion, an aversion to disemboweling puppies." "Basically, this is what some of your more famous serial killers' brains look like." "You're quite certain of this?" "Certain enough that I have serious ethical problems trying to wake him up." "Topher has ethical problems." "Topher." "Way to land it." "Judith, get me Bradley Karrens." "Hello." "You're new." "And of course, you're always new." "And who are we today?" "She's Kiki." "Of course she is." "Excuse me." "Work order Echo." "Echo..." "Echo..." "Who's doing that?" "I am." "Right, okay." "So not exactly a rocket scientist." "Normally that would be irony, but, here, one never knows." "Uh, Stacey, why don't you take Ms. Kiki here on back and stick her in the works." "Who's going to pay for this?" "Isn't that cute." "On the casa." "Free?" "Oui, oui." "Did I win a prize?" "You are a prize." "How long is this going to take?" "Changing their insides is nothing." "Zip, zip." "The outsides..." "that's art." "Art takes time." "Magazine?" "I won't even do this for my wife." "I was trained at Quantico." "Adelle, tell me there's been a breakthrough." "Of a kind." "Can your people bring him back?" "Convince me why they should." "What?" "Bradley, when you came to me with your request, you assured me that conventional medical science would fail to revive your nephew." "That news of his condition would be a crushing blow to your brother," "Terry's father." "All true." "Yet somewhat incomplete, yes?" "I encourage candor." "I have a team standing by to return him to Mercy." "A return to Mercy." "That has a poetry." "All right, all right." "All right, when I told you the doctors said he couldn't be revived, that was true." ""Revived in time," is what I neglected to add." "In time for what?" "Well, you are no doubt aware of Terry's past, his troubles with the law?" "Minor offenses." "What you know about is only what the family hasn't been able to scrub." "There have been other... indiscretions." "Women, "survivors" I should call them." "And when you have a survivor, you have a person that might be persuaded monetarily or by other means, to stay quiet." "But when all you have are bodies..." "I see." "We can't be certain, of course, but recent reports of abductions, missing persons might suggest..." "Survivors?" "Terry and I have always been close." "If there are women out there, he'd tell me." "And I just know that if I can talk to him... if he is to be questioned, we do it on my terms." "Oh, I just..." "My terms." "That's all." "Yeah, and I just love these..." "I'll take her." "What?" "I'll cover your engagement." "You're staying here." "Why?" "Turns out we have a sudden need for an FBI profiler." "I suggested you." "For what?" "To interrogate a possible serial killer." ""Serial killer"?" "Thank God." "Car!" "Goodness gracious." "Hello, Terry." "Hello?" "I'd like to know if I'm being charged with something." "Do you know you have to charge me with something eventually?" "I know my rights." "How much does he know about who he is?" "Where he is?" "Straight brain dump." "He is Terry Karrens." "Right up to the moment he got hit by that car." "I don't understand why you won't just let me speak with him." "Mr. Ballard received his training from the FBI." "He's very experience in these matters." "We defer to him." "These missing persons reports... why do you think he's connected?" "Just a hunch." "No, that's not a hunch." "A 42-year-old woman from Covina, a 16-year-old girl from El Monte, a 20-year-old from Whittier and a 38-year-old from Alhambra." "I don't see a pattern here, for some reason you do." "Who are these women?" "Who are they to him?" "They were in a real sense nobody." "The authors of some of the most important medieval literature had no concept of self identity as we might understand it." "We think of them as anonymous." "They didn't think of themselves at all." "And I can see many of you would rather not be thinking of them, either." "Okay, your essays on the economics of love in Chaucer's the wife of bath are being returned to you." "If you have questions or quibbles, my office is open." "Excuse me." "Professor, this can't be right." "Ms. Turner." "Kiki." "Okay, so I probably never should've taken this course to begin with." "But I figured it was mid-evil lit, not advanced evil." "How hard could it be?" "So I skipped intro to evil or whatever, but how is it I get an "F" when this guy that we're reading, Chauncy, can't even spell?" "It's Chaucer." "It's middle english." "Right like hobbits or something." "As I said, my office is open if you'd care to discuss it." "Yeah, I'd care to discuss it." "I'm like the scarlet lady with the "F" on her chest." ""A."" "If only." "The detail is exquisite." "Huh?" "Chaucer's detail." "Alisoun is his most fully realized character." "Well, then he sucks, because I don't get her." "Really?" "Because I think I can detect a little alisoun in you." "Yeah?" "Hello?" "These cuffs are digging into my wrists." "I have no circulation!" "Hello?" "!" "Well, about time." ""Terry Marion Karrens"?" "Any part of that a boy's name?" "What?" "So..." "Terry?" "I gotta ask and I think you know I gotta ask." "Have you been practicing dentistry on large cats?" "Leopards?" "Pumas?" "What?" "I'm just wondering why it is you have traces of a veterinary grade paralytic in your system?" "I demand my phone call!" "I want my attorney present." "No attorneys, no phone calls." "I know my rights." "And no rights." "You are in big trouble." "When my family finds out what you're doing, you and this entire department..." "This isn't a department." "What?" "And I'm not a cop." "What do you mean?" "Who are you then?" "What is this place?" "This is the place you're not in." "And I'm the guy you're not talking to." "And these?" "These are the women you're going to tell me how to find." "I've never seen any of these women before." "Take another look, Terry." "Squint if you have to." "I told you I've never seen these women before." "I don't know them." "Let me help you out." "Mother." "Big sis." "Little sis." "And aunt Sheila." "At least that's how you know them." "No." "No-no-no-no-no." "This is exactly the wrong approach to take with Terry." "He needs to know you're on his side." "But we're not on his side." "Adelle, I know my nephew." "And you should visit your nephew." "Topher, escort" "Mr. Karrens downstairs where he can see for himself the care being provided." "I'm sure you'll be impressed." "He's got his own private room and we've kept him very... clean." "You know, Terry, when I was first told that this is what you did:" "Abducted women who looked like the women you grew up with." "Who told you that?" "I figured, "hell, the sick, little twist must've killed his family."" "It's a whole norman bates thing." "But no." "Your real mother and sisters and your aunt are all still living in the family home." "You know what that makes you." "Very weird." "I'm not weird." "No." "No, you're weird, Terry." "But what you're not is special." "It doesn't take a criminal profiler to figure you out." "Maybe just a pimp." "It's ordinary." "You're ordinary." "Maybe you got bottle-fed, maybe you got dumped." "It doesn't matter." "At some point, you decided real people weren't worth it." "You pushed them away." "Alienated everyone in your life so you could surround yourself with the fakes, the copies." "It made you feel like you had some control." "You're not in control." "Does this look like a guy who's in control?" "Goodness gracious." "It... it's impossible." "That can't be me." "Oh, it's you, Terry." "What is this?" "You remember that car, don't you?" "You think you walked away from that without a scratch." "Is that what you think?" "This is a trick." "Is it?" "You need too tell me where to find those women, Terry." "They're the reason you're in that bed." "They're the reason your uncle Brad looks so worried and they're your only hope of ever getting up again." "They did this to me." "You did this to yourself." "It's her." "That one." "It's all her fault." "What about her?" "Terry?" "She made me." "I didn't mean to." "I didn't, I didn't want to." "She meant for this to happen." "Oh, you bitch!" "You bitch!" "What did she make you do, Terry?" "You just want to have a nice time." "You want to have a nice day, but they won't let you." "Because they're not nice." "They are never nice." "They care more about their dates and their boyfriends and they don't pay attention to Terry." "They never let Terry play." "No time for Terry." "They are... whores." "No, she's not a whore." "You're saying she uses sex to get what she wants." "Yeah, I'm saying she's a lusty, bawdy, self-aware woman." "She doesn't allow men to define her." "She knows she's the one with the real power." "What power?" "The same power that all women have." "You make a nice day." "You make shade." "You put plastic umbrellas in the drinks." "It doesn't matter." "It never matters." "But I thought women back then had to do whatever a man said?" "Alisoun knows better." "Alisoun knows it's all up to her." "She can have what she wants." "She knows how to get it." ""Meself have been the whippe."" "She is the whip." "She's the one in control." "They never do what Terry wants." "They always do what they want." "She made me." "It's not my fault." "She made me." "Echo:" "So if she were here, and you were chauncy..." "Chaucer, and he's the author." "Doesn't matter." "She'd know how to get the "f" on her chest turned into an "a."" "You're learning." "Not literature." "But still... but I can fix this." "I can make this right." "They'll let me play again." "We just need a new aunt Sheila." "We know he's killed at least one." "The unfortunate, ubiquitous aunt Sheila." "I wasn't expecting that." "I didn't think he'd cross that line, but it makes sense." "She probably fought back." "That's why he was wandering around with traces of that paralytic in his system." "He'd lost a piece and was out looking to replace it when the accident happened." "You gleaned quite a bit in there, all things considered." "But not enough." "By the way, smart move sending the uncle down there." "Well, I knew what you had planned." "I thought it might add a touch of pathos." "He was really getting on your nerves, huh?" "Couldn't stand another moment." "Yes?" "What happened?" "I..." "I don't know." "His uncle was visiting him and then he went into cardiac arrest or something." "Where is Bradley?" "He's right here." "False alarm, it was nothing." "How was that cacophony nothing?" "Somebody tampered with the main lead." "Come on." "Bradley, this is entirely unacceptable." "We tried it your way, addy." "It didn't work." "Terry's going to have a little chat with his unc." "Everything will be fine." "Now, Terry..." "He's refusing to pick up." "Well, I would say this is a very positive turn of events." "You think?" "I do, assuming your profile is correct." "You still believe Terry Karrens will return to his victims?" "I think he's in the market for a new aunt Sheila." "But yeah." "All our actives are tagged with a gps strip." "We can find them anywhere at any time." "So if there are survivors, Victor will lead us to them." "What do you mean he wasn't tagged?" "Why not?" "They took his gps strip out before they started all that complicated facial reconstruction;" "the scar removal." "The surgery's complete." "Right, but Dr. Saunders is the one who signed off on having it taken out." "And she kind of left before telling anybody to put it back." "Lovely, so you're saying that we've imprinted an active as a serial killer and then blindly let him loose upon the streets?" "I wasn't saying that." "Victor might not have a working gps in his body but maybe Bradley Karrens has one in his car." "Oh..." "Funny how my mind would never think to go there." "What's happening?" "The stuff, it's wearing off." "Where is he?" "I don't know." "He killed her." "He killed her." "I know, I know," "He's going to kill us, too." "No, he isn't." "We won't let him." "What's your name?" "Megan." "Megan." "I'm Robin." "We have names." "Remember that." "We're human." "Not his toys." "We're getting out of here." "Find a weakness." "He's on foot." "Damn." "Or maybe not on foot." "What do you see?" "Metrolink station." "If he got on it, he could be anywhere from the Valley, Downtown, Hollywood..." "The accident." "The hit and run, where did it happen?" "Just outside Beverly Hills." "That has to be close to where he's keeping the women." "You think he's headed back there?" "Probably with a stop along the way to pick up a new aunt Sheila." "The Hollywood line would put him straight towards Beverly Hills." "Yeah." "I'm going to see if I can pick up his trail." "Your one man manhunt's using public transportation now?" "Which is why you're going to provide assurance." "Beg pardon?" "We cannot allow Victor to be used as Terry Karrens' vehicle for abduction and murder." "I'm personally against it." "You need to free Victor of him." "Love to." "He's not here." "I do know this." "A remote wipe?" "It can't be done." "It can be done." "Alpha did it with Echo." "But he used a tonal interface." "Serial killer Victor would need to have a phone." "I need to have a tone." "I'd have to get him to answer the phone." "Do you have his number?" "Obviously not." "Well...?" "Think another way." "Think of it fast." ""Upon an ambler easily she sat." "Well wimpled, aye, and over all a hat." "As broad as is a buckler or a targe."" "A "targe" is a shield." "Yeah, still not following." ""A rug was tucked around her buttocks large."" "I guess a fat ass was a good thing in the 1300's." ""And on her feet, a pair of spurs quite sharp."" "Oh, nasty." ""The remedies of love she knew perchance for of that art she'd learned the old, old dance."" "Liking that." "Where's your tune-age?" "Don't you just feel like dancing?" "Yes." "Are you feeling my bathy girl power?" "'Cause I'm pretty sure I'm feeling your boy power." "Now, let's talk about this "f."" "Must be love." "Or something." "This is Boyd." "Hey, Boyd, it's Topher." "We're trying something in here and so we're calling all the handlers in the field to let them know that I'm going to be taking the biolink grid off-line for a few seconds." "So, uh, when, uh, your screen goes dead, uh, there's nothing to worry about." "Okay." "What are you trying?" "Uh, a remote wipe." "Why?" "Oh, well..." "Victor's loose, doesn't have gps and apparently, he's a serial killer." "Ah." "So, what I'm going to attempt to do is go into his biolink feed, which doesn't tell me where he is, but it does give me a way into his head." "I'm going to reverse the signal, send a purgation tone and blow his mind." "Literally." "Then what?" "Just leave him out there in his doll-state?" "Totally wiped?" "He'll be an empty-headed robot wandering around Hollywood." "He'll be fine." "We'll find him." "How will we know if we're successful?" "Um..." "See this?" "Right now, his vitals are doing the mamba." "He's excited about something." "If the wipe takes, they should" "Flatten out." "Go." "Huh." "You do have power over me." "You are an incredible woman." "What did you call me?" "I am an incredible woman." "Goodness gracious." "Hello, Mr. Langton, how's your evening out?" "A lot like my evenings in." "I'm afraid there's been a little bit of a situation here." "Yeah." "I spoke to topher." "Did the remote wipe take?" "It remains to be seen." "The attempt seems to have thrown the entire system off-line." "We'll know all once topher has rebuilt it." "Until then, we're blind." "We need to bring in all our field actives." "Get them in pocket till the situation is resolved." "I agree." "You'll take point on this?" "Will do." "I'll start sending out the word." "Then grab Echo and come home." "Very good." "I thought I would make a nice day, but they just won't let me." "You know what?" "Now they don't even get a new aunt Sheila." "Yeah, full recall." "Everybody's coming home." "Hang on." "That's my other line." "This is Boyd." "Cooper, did you end the engagement?" "What?" "Well, what...?" "Get back to the house." "It's fine." "Everything's going to be fine." "Yeah." "This is Boyd." "I need an ambulance." "So how did it happen?" "Do we even know what happened?" "My best guess?" "I had to access the biolink grid for the remote wipe." "I thought I isolated Victor, but everything must have gotten scrambled." "So we assume Terry Karrens imprint somehow got transferred to Echo?" "Either that, or my attempt to make her hot for teacher" "Really didn't come off." "If Terry is in Echo, where did Kiki go?" "Am I drunk?" "Hang on just a minute." "I think we both know why." ""I laugh when I think, how piteously a-nyght I made them swynke!"" "You know what that means?" "I have no idea, but it's wicked filthy." "How about buying a girl a drink before you swynke?" "Okay." "You think he might be what?" "Look at that." "You suck!" "Trying to hit a girl?" "!" "Oh, Paul, Paul." "Why did you ever leave me?" "You got a problem?" "I got it, I got it!" "Go, go." "Go." "Let's go." "Oh, thank God." "We thought that you were him." "Oh, my God." "I am him." "Hello, ladies." "Ready to finish our game?" "She's really hurt." "She's really hurt?" "How do you think I feel?" "You tried to kill me with a car." "What?" "!" "What?" "!" "Don't play stupid." "You think I don't know what's going on here?" "What you've been up to?" "We need to get her to a hospital." "Oh, please, mother, always protecting your little princess." "I am not your mother." "Oh, then I guess I'm not your son." "You always said, "be a man."" "You do make it a little difficult." "You think... you think you can make me dirty like you." "I am not..." "they are... whores." "You did this to me." "Please, we just want to leave." "I'll just bet you do." "Everybody always wants to leave Terry." "How about you, aunt Sheila?" "Huh?" "You still feel like leaving?" "Aunt Sheila?" "Aunt Sheila doesn't want to leave." "I say we all take a tip from her." "You're staying." "No!" "No!" "Did I fall asleep?" "Don't engage until we know the worm is dead." "You have to kill it in the G-line." "The wave is hiding." "Why is it moving?" "Because it's designed to go where it's not supposed to." "It's the whole point." "The system's still down?" "Evidently." "I see you've made a friend." "I'm Kiki." "Okay, I think we're good." "All right, where is she?" "Beverly Hills." "I think she's gone shopping." "Maybe they're both Kiki." "He was here." "He's still here." "He wants to kill you." "You have to kill him first." "He's coming back." "He's coming back!" "Get away from the door." "He won't let me." "What are you talking about?" "Get away from the door!" "You have to kill him." "What do you mean?" "We have to kill her." "Yes." "No problem." "No!" "No!" "Yes." "He'll find you." "He won't stop." "He'll never stop, he can't." "What you're saying doesn't make sense." "It doesn't have to make sense..." "it just is." "He took you from a shopping mall." "He followed you from your house." "He'd been watching you for days." "Your little house, the yellow house." "He watched you from the street." "He sat in his car and he watched you." "He could see your kitchen from the street." "He saw the boy, the redheaded boy." "He liked the way the boy looked at you." "That's why he took you." "He'll do it again." "You need to stop him for that little boy." "You won't get another chance." "Echo." "Are you okay?" "I don't think so." "Would you like a treatment?" "I rather like him this way." "Even though you asked me to get into his head," "I never really could." "His uncle's having him transported back to the hospital this afternoon." "Think he'll ever wake up?" "Wouldn't it be nice if he didn't." "Good day." "Good day." "I think he dreams." "Not anymore." "Goodness gracious."

"...return them return them birthday gifts." "After 21 years." "Return them. 21 years." "...return them." "Return them return birthday gifts of the past 21 years... 21 years." "Return them..." "I'll never forgive you." "I can't forgive you." "Something knocking at your backdoor as well, Pieter?" "I heard every word you said tonight." "Every word." "But it's just not possible." " Yes, I'm sure it must be a shock." "Because it's mine." "It belongs to me." "Not to the City, not to you." "To me." "And it's totally legal." " I'll cut you some slack." "I don't want them all back." "I'll let you keep 13 of the 21." "I'll keep the eight Van Goppels." "The offer certainly does not include the Van Goppels." "They must be returned, all eight of them." "As soon as possible." "Shall we do notes now?" "Yes, I'll be right there." "It's not possible, because it's not possible." "You'll see it differently tomorrow." " What's tomorrow?" "A new day." "Very trendy and comfortable to wear very trendy and with a" "in your underwear" "in the center of Barcelona" "In bed she asks me:" "How do you see the future?" "But I didn't realize it was a trick question, so I tell her about my dream... of a yacht, a small farm in France and a flat on a canal." "Explain it, I had to explain it." "I'm thinking, why?" "I'm such an asshole." "So I say:" "Okay, a yacht?" "To sail with, what else?" "And a farm in France?" "I'd have my books there and a vineyard, maybe." "And the flat in the city for fun:" "Concerts, movies." "You know what she says?" "I'm no part of it, you don't see me in any of it." "You don't see me in any of it." "For God's sake." "One moment you're holding a glass, the next a carving fork." "Nothing happened." "I grabbed a few things... and I left." "I got a nosebleed, because I grabbed the suitcase in the dark... when the camping stuff and two hockey sticks fell on me." "Who'd put old hockey sticks on top of the suitcases?" "It's that kind of apathy that makes it so difficult... for me to see that family as anything more than a herd of stupid animals." "Animal apathy as structure." "Pens." "I've brought home thousands of pens from Parliament." "But when I want to jot down a phone number, there isn't a pen in the house." "I had this vision of slamming her body against the coat rack." "Sink the hook into the soft spot at the base of her skull." "It's nonsense, of course." "Strict, severe..." "No, uptight." "My God, that woman's so uptight." "I..." "Tom, who are these people at the door?" "You've moved?" "No." "Item describer." " Items?" "It's what I do." "I'm still a lawyer, but through Jobs For Patients I can do this for now." "Patient?" "What about your house?" "It's on the market, somehow I managed to make some debts." "You must've shoved a fortune up your nose." "Squash." " Squash?" "You and I, 3 months ago, every week." " Yes, I was there, remember?" "At noon, you and I are punishing that ball... and in the evening I'm in a bar celebrating the DRAM case..." "DRAM:" "Dynamic RAM memory." "I told you I won the case, right?" "I raise a glass with my clients... and 24 hours later I'm in my underwear in Barcelona." "No idea how I got there." "That's how I ended up in that institution." "Acutely manic." "I knew you were away." "But I thought you'd gone to a health spa with saunas and hot tubs." "I was jealous." " Jealous?" "I was carving up my arm with a piece of glass." "Jesus, Tom." "Totally weird, from one moment to the next." "But I can't stay here." " No?" "We'll go to Pieter." "No, Pieter is not home." " Let's go to Maarten's then." "Are you going too?" " I'm not staying here." "Be a bit more mystical." "You explain too much and you don't have to." "Can I rinse this stuff off?" " Yes, of course." "Cloaca." "Grab the phone." "Turn it off, turn it off." "Get it." "Laura, turn it off." "I am driving the car, Joep." " Stop, stop right now." "Move over and stop the car." "Now." "Look, see?" " Tom, stop now." "Stop and let me out." "I'll tell you later, but before it hits the fan..." "Open up." "Can I stay with you?" "Open up." "Reverse, haven't done that in 2 months." " Open the damn door." "Did you know he was committed?" "Tom." "Totally manic." "He was committed." " I have to call you back, Joep, sorry." "Laura." "Come on now." "Please?" "Please." "Sweet little girl?" "Sweet little girl." "Totally manic." "Can I stay at your place?" "Joep, do you know a good lawyer?" "Tom'll be too busy." "He just happens to be driving by." "I'll see you in a bit." "Tom, goddamnit." "Stop." "I'll just take the tram." "No, I'll take you home." "Tom, keep your hands off." "Tom, let go." " I'm glad it's no problem." "I didn't say you could stay." " I can't go to a hotel now." "You can stay, but I didn't say it." " People will talk." "Me in a hotel." "Now." "You don't have to go to a hotel." "Not while the coalition is being formed." " It's okay." "No way I can do that." " Joep..." "I need a shower." "Tom, let go." "Come on, let go." "I had some terrible news this evening." " Pietje, Pietje." "I thought you'd be too busy." "But you're here now, which is good, because I need a lawyer." "This thing at work." "A case?" " A case?" "A case for me?" "You're asking me." "It'll be my first case since the clinic." " Clinic?" "This thing at work." " Yes." "Piet, do you have a towel for me?" "I thought I was in a movie." "When I was beaten up in Barcelona, I let them." "What are you talking about?" "I believed the script called for me to be beaten up." "Well, it's over now." "This thing at work." " Tom, stop rambling." "I want a story with all the facts in chronological order." "Half the population is manic, and depressive to boot." "In my case, it manifested itself with a bang." "It was terrible." "I didn't know." "We go months without seeing each other... but I should have been there." "I don't blame you." "I didn't want to see anyone." "How long had it been since you saw each other?" "I'm only human." "Sometimes I need a pump." "I must've bought six bicycle pumps." "But I can never find one when I need it." "What does she do with them?" "She doesn't mind, says the house looks lived in." "It's a frigging mess." "We have mice in the hall closet." "You know what they do?" "Conny and the kids knock, so the mice run off and Catweazle can't catch them." "That's our stupid, epileptic cat." "I didn't know, Tom." "I didn't know." "You're often away, or very busy." "Or in a different scene, let's say." "Two months in a clinic?" " No, one month." "One month." " Yes, and then I went to an institution." "An institution?" " Yes." "To make friends with my bipolar character." "The month in the clinic was to kick my massive coke habit." "And now?" "Lithium." "It's terrific." "In hindsight I could see it coming." " What about your case?" "A leak in the kitchen with a pan under it." "Call a plumber, you might say." "But no, because Catweazle drinks from the pan." "Does that make any sense?" "Well, not to me." "The case." " Potato chips?" "Either gone or limp." "Chocolates?" "I get a tin full of empty wrappers." "A sandwich then." "The bread is stale." "I have a problem." "But it kind of pales in comparison to yours." "Tell me all about it." " Lf anything's possible, why not me?" "Why can't I dream of a yacht and farm that's not messy?" "Guess where I found the phone?" "Don't you want to know what he said?" "Joep, I mean?" "No." "Great." "We open next week." "I'm up for it." "It started the first year, when they realized they forgot my birthday." "We have a kitty for special occasions, but they forgot my present." "I didn't mind, I didn't want anything." "I said I'd rather pick something out of Depot Zero." "It's a basement in City Hall where rejected artwork is stored." "Most of it is junk. 800 square meters of dreariness, it's terrible." "Or do you want to forget about it and have a drink?" "No, the case." "I'm just getting warmed up." "It was absolutely aboveboard." "Everybody knew about it, including department head Vermeulen." "So all those years, you contributed to the kitty..." "How long have you worked there?" " It'll be 22 years soon." "You are such a coward." "Why do you say that?" "A summer job, Pieter." "It was a summer job." "Twenty-two years." "Is that bad?" " You didn't study Art History... to be a file clerk at City Hall." "You wanted to write a book on De Kooning." "Well, apparently not." " You know, I have this image of you." "You were telling us about him in your room." "He could capture an emotional quality..." " The ramblings of a failed artist." "Those evenings were great." "The best, come to think of it." "You had a fire inside you." "Passion." " We all did." "I didn't." " You did too." "From Art History to Psychology to Law." "I hated them all." "You think it'll hit you when you start working." "I got hit by a lot things when I started working, but never that fire..." "Maybe I should get another lawyer, don't you think?" "I want this." "Come on." "You're not going back to that little room." "You'll stay right here." "I'm going to bed." "I'm exhausted." "Can you picture us, Tom?" "Conny in her pajamas and me with a carving fork?" "I was expecting something else." "I didn't have dinner with my boss, but with Brest, my boss' boss." "That's never happened before, so I expected something else." "A decoration?" " Yes." "A decoration, but that's not how it went." "This case is becoming clear to me." "The kitty can be compared to a collective insurance." "For 21 years you paid a contribution... and for that you should have received twenty-one tokens of affection." "It didn't happen." "From the kitty, that is." "I think you should get your contribution back." "And if they claim that you preferred a different form of compensation... which is against regulations, let them shove their stuffy art." "But I don't want that." " Am I nuts for staying with a homo?" "I want to keep it." " The formation can take weeks." "No, just days." "I've heard rumors." " City Hall wants me to return the gifts." "But I'm not giving them back." "You want to keep that junk?" "It's not junk." "No, it's not junk." "I can do it, Tom." "Maybe that's the fire." "I can do it." "I always could." "I can go to a bar and see the one." "I can do that." "On a crowded beach or in a packed disco, I can pick the one." "I have an unblemished sense of what's real, for something that is." "I can wade through the unbearable ugliness in Depot Zero... and pick out the gems." "I recognized it in Van Goppel." "For 8 years, he submitted a painting as part of a art program... and every year, I would take it out of the depot on my birthday." "And now Brest wants me to give them back?" "No way." "Do you see what's going on?" "Now that the Van Goppels are valuable due to his death and Dokumenta... the City is organizing a show and they want them all back." "And why are you so attached to them?" "Because they're beautiful." "Better than De Kooning." "Can I be the devil's advocate?" "If I were them, I'd file a complaint against you." "What for?" " For embezzlement." "You're not the devil's advocate." "I can't afford this." "I'll be a minister next week." "A homo is one thing, but an embezzling homo is out." "Everyone knew it." "They were gifts." " We need to get that on paper." "Yes, something like that." "Shall I see what I can do?" "I can devise or decree something." "I need the names of your bosses." " That sounds quite disgusting." "Can't..." "No, we have to plan this well." "You must coax them to your point of view." "What do eight Van Goppels go for?" "This quality?" "Not lithos, but canvas..." "Anywhere from 2 to 3 million." "Three million." "Three million?" "Run this story by me again, slowly this time." "Three million?" "Where are they?" "Where did you hang them?" "Can we solve this, guys?" " You can buy New York with trinkets." "You can buy gold-rich land from a Colombian farmer for 100 euros." "You can call plastic 'imitation leather'." "Not really, but you can, you know?" "But if no one will attest that they were given to you, it is against the law." "Listen, Piet." "Anything you know about Brest and Vermeulen... any improper behavior, you have to tell me." "Alcoholism, sexual harassment, I'm going to need it." "Isn't there a less vulgar solution?" " No." "Three million?" "Ministers have resigned for less than that." "I don't need this." "Oh, like I'm enjoying this." "Which are they?" "These are from the depot, but I can keep them." "So no Van Goppels here?" "I can't afford the insurance." "Too expensive." "So where are they?" " In a safe." "In a safe?" " Yes." "Tom, keep it to yourself." "I'm living at home, okay?" "If there's any dirt on Brest and Vermeulen... you watch, with a little luck Piet can keep them." "If Conny calls, yes..." "I'll see if I call her back." "Three months ago I had a calf-leather briefcase, wore a 3-piece suit... and I was waltzing through the halls of government." "Yes, why don't you take it easy." "Do you have something to read?" "Will you take care of dinner?" "I had an unexpected dinner yesterday." "With Karel Brest." "Karel Brest, that's right." "Pieter had dinner with the boss." "And you're probably all wondering why." "You've probably all been brought up to date." "Isn't that right, Jacques?" "Did everyone get a personal call from Jacques Vermeulen?" "You could have at least told me." " What should I have said?" "That I must return the Van Goppels." "Maarten, can you go in a little late today?" "It's her birthday." "Who?" " Laura." "We have a surprise for her." "Come upstairs, she'll like that." "Hip, hip, hooray." "I didn't know it was your birthday." " Are you my surprise?" "No, the surprise... the surprise is coming." "Give it back." "Don't be stupid." "Take him." " Hello, baby." "He's for you." " Oh, he's so cute." "Thank you." "There you are, cutie." "Ten years too late, but there he is." "Laura's wanted a dog since she was eight." "She finally got one." "Late, but there he is." "Is he at your house?" "Who?" "Oh." " No, I don't want to know." "Hey, baby." "Good morning." "Tom..." " I've lost the briefcase, not the suit." "Fantastic, it feels great." "All of it:" "The halls, the suit, the room." "I'm in a meeting." " Me too." "I have an affidavit in my head I need to draw up." "Pieter's colleagues have to sign this affidavit... stating the things were gifts." "Donated." "You've spoken to Brest or Vermeulen?" " Not yet." "But you've had all day." " I have to talk to the PM-elect." "The meeting is a formality." "I'm getting FA, I just know it." "Who else on FA?" "FA?" " Foreign Affairs." "Now that things at home are bad, spending lots of time abroad is perfect." "Did you take a snort?" "Did you?" " No." "I quit, and I can't afford it." "But I'm fired up by this case." "Tonight." "Not now, not here." "Not now." "Draw up the affidavit, I'll handle it." "You're not quite yourself yet." "Take it easy." "Go to Piet's house, take a nap and take care of dinner." "I'm always like this." " I know, but this is not a good time." "Do you like beans?" " You get beans." "I'll see you tonight." "Maarten, is this reverb okay?" " Yes." "Can we discuss the blue?" "This looks like it's underwater." "It is underwater." " It's underwater?" "Very much so." "That whole scene is totally underwater." "But how do we know that?" "Because the light's blue." "Or should we drop a net from the fly tower or let some herring swim by?" "I want to start in ten minutes." "A run-through." "Laura, shouldn't you be in make-up?" "He's staying with you, isn't he?" "No." " Yes, he is." "It's my birthday, okay?" " Is it your birthday?" "Real nice." "Laura, we're opening next week." "I have lots on my mind." "I don't need this." "Joep is not staying with me." "Period." "Here, we rehearse." "And fuck." "Ten minutes." "I shouldn't have done it." "It's unpretentious junk." "I've drawn up an affidavit." "Don't tell me I have to pass it around." " You do, but not yet." "Joep still has to work on Brest and Vermeulen." "My God." "I just picked up the mail at home." "Here." "And I notice she's put the bedroom lamp in the living room." "Why?" "What's the point?" "A feeble attempt at being assertive?" "Now there's a bedroom light next to the couch." "I couldn't read the mail." "But there's a note:" "Be back after my salsa lesson." "We'll eat out." "Mom." "Salsa lesson." "She hates wiggling her hips, she can't do it." "It's a provocation." "Do you have mistress?" "Yes." " You do?" "Sort of, yes." " Why don't you stay there?" "I can't." " I don't see why not." "Her husband might object." " Nice." "Then Teddy says:" "He's so cute, Dad." "I freak out and rush upstairs." "Guess what?" "She got the kids a dog." "What is she trying to do?" "Cloaca." " That's really terrible." "She's got it so the kids don't even miss me." "I didn't know." "Joep told me yesterday." "You've had a breakdown, didn't you?" "It's weird how it can happen without us knowing." "You spent some time in a health spa or something?" "Health spa?" "He was carving up his arm with a piece of glass." "Yes, of course." "I'm sorry, but you're better now." "Not bouncing off the walls." "I'm all bounced out." "You must tell me all about it." " Now?" "I've been thinking about it a lot lately." "We were pretty good, weren't we?" "We should regroup." "Shocking Blue is performing again, seriously." "Wouldn't you like to play again?" " Maybe after the coalition is formed." "Joep, she's very good." " Who?" "Laura." "Your Laura." "I pick her up and drop her off." "It's on the way." "It's a nice pet." "The dog?" " Yes." "And you pick her up." "Why?" " She's in my play, remember?" "In... what's it called?" " The Wheel of Ixion." "With you?" "Is it theater?" " No, a game show." "I thought all Laura had to do was wear a nice dress and spin a wheel." "The Wheel of Ixion is a Greek myth, Joep." "So my daughter is acting for you?" " Yes, she's acting for Maarten." "In a play, not a peep show." "Is that so?" "You know what he makes." "'What he makes'?" "What do you mean?" " You heard me." "This is unacceptable." "What are you saying?" " I just said it." "Occasionally people will appear nude in my plays." "If you consider that porn..." " Is my daughter appearing in the nude?" "Your daughter asked for an internship with me." "Buck-naked?" " I had pick of the litter, and she was it." "Buck-naked, Maarten?" " Yes, briefly." "See what I mean?" "You want me to fire her?" " No, let her wear a dress." "Not possible, not in my concept." "That's bull, you'd make Snow White wear a g-string... and the nine dwarfs would all have massive hard-ons." "Seven, Joep." " What?" "Seven dwarfs." "You hate my work." " But not because of Laura's nudity." "Yes, it does." " Yup." "You want me to fire her?" " We all detest your work, you know?" "Is this because of Laura's nudity?" " No, because it's true." "We have four double espressos before we go to your shows." "That's a total of 24 espressos." "And yet an hour later, Tom's napping on Pieter's shoulder." "Is that true, Tom?" " No." "A dress." "My daughter will wear a dress." "You're not pawing her with your filthy director's hands, are you?" "How did you know about the dog?" "Do you go to my house?" "Are you involved with Conny?" "You are." " Joep, give me a break." "Conny invited me in to see Thurs." "Thurs?" " Yes, because it's Thursday today." "And she got him today." "Who?" " Who?" "Laura." "She turned eighteen today." "Nice to see you again, Maarten." "Shall we do something on Monday?" "Opening night?" " No, it's Joep's birthday." "He'll be home by then." " Don't count on it." "Then we'll take him to dinner." " No, too depressing." "I can't handle that." "Just think: 20 years from now, a dinner service will bring us meals." "What are you talking about?" "Something fun and exciting, something he can feel." "And what can still make Joep feel?" "Yes, that's a great idea." "Eighteen." "My daughter is eighteen." "This is good." "We're doing a good thing." "I figured we had to do this." "We have to do this for Joep." "Tom, I'm a prick." " Yes, that's true too." "It's more than just doing something for him." "It's a gesture." "It's a gesture on my part." "Sometimes things happen... kind of unexpectedly." "Great, and where do I get changed?" "This is a stupid idea." "It really is." "Yes, the answer is yes." "'Yes'?" "Yes, you should've been there, even if it was only once." "I didn't..." "I messed that up." "Tom, I'm sorry." "And all this in my house." "The time has come." "I'm seeing the PM-elect on Friday." "Let's drive down to Gent or Maastricht." "Just say you have an emergency." "We'll have dinner and stay at an expensive hotel." "But it's my birthday." "You didn't forget, did you?" "Jesus, a talk with a teacher." "Can't he do that?" "No, your husband." "You've played hooky as well." "He was high in class?" "Those teachers are full of it." "Jenny..." "No, I'm sorry." "Honey, I said I was sorry." "Goodbye, darling." "Bye, have a good talk with the teacher." "Hello?" " It's Dad, is Mom there?" "She can't come to the phone." " Just call her, Bram." "Why not?" "Tell her it's urgent." "She can't, Dad, she's busy." " What?" "Tell her she must." "She's cooking Spanish today." "I don't give a damn what she's cooking." "Tell her to come to the phone." "Don't start, Dad." " No, she's..." "Bram." "See you, Dad." " Conny, pick up the phone now." "Bye." " Conny..." "Who is this?" "We've still got it." "What's the deal?" "Not on my bed, right?" " Of course." "Gross, no." " She's a pro, she's got plastic sheets." "Yes, incontinence underpads." " Underpads?" "Really?" "You're kidding." "But not on my bed, guys." "I don't mind in the house." "You get to keep the underpad." " You don't care at all." "You get to keep it." "Sorry, but if you do this, it has to be perfect." "That's a Caesarian." "That scar there, you've had a Caesarian." "It's my birthday." "Nice present." "If they're in the bedroom, we can go back if we're quiet." "I like to be home when I have visitors." "After 36 hours, she stopped talking." "She held my hand, but didn't talk." "And I thought..." "I thought she was going to die." "This wasn't going to be the birth of my first child, but my wife's passing." "I didn't know what to do." "I though Conny would die and..." "I don't remember:" "Hospital, ambulance." "All these people rushing down a corridor." "Someone puts a green gown on me." "Another shouts:" "Caesarian." "And anesthesia..." "I'm in an operating room with Conny." "She's totally out of it." "Someone hands me a camera... and tells me to take pictures." "To take a lot of pictures." "So I do." "I'm clicking away like mad." "I thought it was so I'd have something to do." "Later I learned I had to do it." "The pictures were necessary to satisfy Conny... that the little baby in her arms really was her baby." "Women giving birth under general anesthesia can have lingering doubts." "We don't do that." "We don't know if it's ours, but we never doubt it." "Ten minutes later and Laura would've hung herself." "With every contraction... she tightened the umbilical chord around her neck." "She was caught in it." "But she was born." "Super team." "It makes me wonder, perhaps in a moment of weakness... where, when and why... it all fell apart." "When did Conny and I stop loving each other?" "Why did everything only go downhill?" "Oh, God." "I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry." "If you could understand me... we'd probably do alright, Man With No Name." "I feel so much pain in you." "But what is it?" "Does it have anything to do with the scar on my belly?" "No one's ever cared about that." "They're much too horny for that." "No one has ever noticed it before." "I also have pain, a lot of pain." "I'm no prostitute, you see?" "I'm a mother." "I have two daughters." "We understand each other, don't we?" "We really do." "Don't be surprised if I have another good cry." "I feel another one coming on." "I know exactly where it comes from." "It's lodged here, in my neck, and I want to be rid of it." "Guys, fantastic." "Actually, you were supposed to fuck her." "I told you it wasn't a very good idea." "It wasn't the plan, but it was good." "Didn't you fuck her?" " No." "No?" "What is this?" " Leave it." "A fuck can be depressing." "So it's a pat on the head and a song?" " So what?" "It's okay like this." "I'm not paying 300 euros for that." " She can go home." "My show is opening soon." "Mind if I relax?" "Ask me nicely, you asshole." "Ask me nicely." "Please, Helena?" " What does she want?" "It's weird, but I think she wants to be treated like a human being." "Do I have to say please or else she'll hit me?" "She might not, but I will." "Whoa, whose house is it?" "If I'm not mistaken, it's mine." "She owes us a dance." " It's my house." "It's my life, and you're a prick." "She can go." "Your limp, faggot dick doesn't get it, but it's every boy's dream." "Excuse me?" "Limp, faggot dick?" "It's my present and I say she can go." "Well, then I'll take her into the bedroom." "You're not going into my bedroom." "What's the matter?" "What's going on all of the sudden?" "Because I said you had a limp, faggot dick?" "I don't have a problem with that." "I've known you for 20 years, why would it bother me now?" "Pieter, you know it." "I don't have a problem with that." "Guys, just let me have good time." "My show is opening soon." "Come here." "I had a huge one." "Break a leg, Maarten." "You don't have to come." "I'd rather you didn't." "Will my daughter be wearing a dress?" "Now that you all live together, it seems that I'm the prick around here." "First, I burden you with two openings a year." "Gee, I beg your pardon." "So don't come then." "And now I manhandled the woman." "It doesn't bother her, only you guys." "That woman and I understand each other." "Does my daughter wear a dress?" "Not the board, not the management not the sponsor... nor the critics tell me how to direct my plays." "Meaning?" " Meaning, a father doesn't either." "Romantic duvet cover with flower design at a super price." "Attractive bra with soft, padded cups for a great décolleté." "Tailored blazer with woven faux-mink collar and attractive cuffs." "Beer, anyone?" "I'm out of beer." "You know what I'd like to know, Piet?" "You can distinguish the beautiful from the ugly." "Only in things or people too?" " People too." "So why are you still single?" "I see them, but they don't see me." " Sad." "My motto is:" "Jack the day." "What about going for it?" " That's distasteful after a certain age." "Oh, you like young boys." "Which is not primarily a physical thing." " It isn't?" "I can barely talk to a chick under 30." " Or over 30." "But if it isn't physical, what then?" "They're so beautiful at being what they are." "Ambitious, egotistical, vain." "And so naturally confident that things will work out." "Were we like that too?" " Yes." "We'll know Friday if things work out." " With Conny?" "No, not Conny." "The PM-elect." "You're talking to a minister." "I don't know anyone as ambitious as you." "But you like that." " Not in you." "Your ambition has a ruthless edge to it." "Have I become an awful man?" " Yes." "But Maarten is more awful than I." "You two are the soft ones in the group, but is that any better?" "You went crazy and you're still single." "Did I say that?" "Did I say that?" "Awful man." "So he's an alcoholic." " And incompetent." "I looked into it for you, Piet." "I'm not that awful." "Before I go abroad, I'll trap Vermeulen for you." "I'll need your colleagues' addresses to mail them the affidavit." "Let's see the Van Goppels." " They're in a safe." "All eight of them?" " Four of them." "It's eight, right?" "Eight, yes." " But you said four." "Originally, there were eight." " Originally?" "I had to sell four of them." "Are you jerking us around?" " I can't afford this place on my salary." "And I had to find a bigger place to accommodate the Van Goppels." "They stood on the floor, but their value went up, so I couldn't do that anymore." "It's bad for paintings." "I had to hang them up, so I needed a bigger place." "Then I met an Australian collector... and it broke my heart, it really did, but I sold two of them." "Two?" " Four." "But then I got into this vicious circle of events, you might say... with six Van Goppels that only kept going up in value." "While my coffers were being depleted slowly but surely." "So I decided..." "No, you stay put." " It's the doorbell." "Mind if I open?" "So after some time you..." " Decided to sell two more." "I had to take desperate measures, because their value kept going up." "I didn't anticipate that." "I'm not a dealer, I didn't want to sell." " That will be tough to prove." "How will you return all eight of them?" "I can't, I just told you that." "Sell your apartment." "I'd have to get a loan to buy them, because I can't afford them anymore." "And if that fails?" "I'll be sucked into a bottomless pit." "I think I'll go." "It's late, and my show is opening soon." "Break a leg, Maarten." "You don't have to come, I understand." "No, I'll be there." "My daughter's in it." "Okay, good." "Well, I guess I'll be going." "I'll do it." "I'll take the affidavit around the office." "Tomorrow." " Yup." "I'll do it." "Or later this week." "I'll do it." "Have a nice evening." " See you tomorrow." "Working overtime to pay for your Van Goppels, Pieter?" "Maarten, you're the best break a leg" "Good night." "Hello, Joost, I want to ask you to take a look at this." "Do you understand what it's about?" "I beg your pardon." "I beg your pardon." "Do you know what it's about?" "Tom." " It worked, I have a signature." "Joost Uylenburg just signed." "The guy from City Government." "So wish Maarten good luck." "I'm going to see all my colleagues." "Okay, that's great." "Come on." "Come on, or do you want to stay here?" "Annelieze?" " Yes?" "It's Pieter." "I have something for you that requires an explanation." "Come on up." "They were a gift, you see, Annelieze?" "They were a gift and I can't give them back." "I just can't." "Theo, it's Pieter." "I was wondering if I could stop by to see you tonight." "It's rather important." "Yes." "Fine." "Yes, see you in a bit." "Bye, Theo." "Lonely, filled with resentment for deeds we regret." "Champagne for tonight." "You're invited too." "Dad." "Dad." " Hi, sweetie." "Hi, Bram." " Hello, Dad." "Hello, darling." "Are you alright?" "I almost didn't recognize you." " Yes, I noticed." "How's the puppy?" " Cute." "Where does he sleep?" " He sleeps on Laura's bed." "Good thing you had the courage to leave." "You were right." "It was finished." "Completely finished." "Guys, Laura's waiting for us." "Asshole." "What?" " You're such an asshole." "You should've said something." " You heard her:" "Good thing you left." "But she stayed put." "So?" "Do I have to spell it out for you?" "She stayed put, so you had a chance." "She was expecting a gesture." "Asshole." "She looked at you and you said nothing." "That's when she decided it was good that you left." "Should I have said:" "Can I come live in my house?" "No, with you." " With you?" "Yes, can I come back and live with you." "That was my line." " Yes." "And she'd demand you be home more, no other women..." "Alright, I didn't say it." "No, I didn't say it." "But there's still time." "There's still time?" "There's still time?" "Jesus Christ, Joep." "Your time is up, a long time ago." "Do something." "Do something." "Where are you going?" "Come on, Tom." "Let's go back." "I want to be on my own." "I don't think that's a good idea." " Me neither." "Stop it, man." " You had it all." "Everything." "On your knees, all the roses you could carry, an apology." "I was there, Joep." "You did nothing." "Say:" "I can't live without you, I want to come home." "I want to come home." "Where's Dad?" " He saw the show." "Then why isn't he here?" "He's around here somewhere." " I don't think so." "Where is the bastard, huh?" " Your father left." "Isn't he coming..." " Stop it." "Your father has left." "Why?" "Because he left, that's why." "Is that something to get hysterical about?" "No, it isn't." "So cut it out." "Let's have a drink." "We have something to celebrate." "I think I hate him, Mom." "I won't do anything for him or listen to him again." "Where are you?" " Is Conny there?" "Where are you?" " I was just..." "I had..." "Joep, where are you?" " Going home." "I'm meeting the PM-elect tomorrow." "Are you going to Pieter's?" " Wait, I'm getting another call." "You're looking good." "Were you away?" " No." "No, not really." "I have to talk to him." " Fine, but he's not here yet." "How did it go?" "Standing ovation?" "I couldn't come." "I had something to do." "Pieter had some business to attend to." "Look, Piet, I can't do this any longer." "I can't give myself anymore." "All the bullshit once it's over." "Endless love, or an eternal and exclusive friendship." "Take a girl to Mexico for 6 weeks, because you screwed her." "They're so demanding." "Didn't you have a party to go to?" "Look, Laura..." "Laura's is okay." "Laura is a different story." "Laura?" " She's a lot like Joep." "Good sex, that's all." "She doesn't stay the night." "You and Laura." "You can't be serious." " She's emotional." "Joep might find out." "And I think it's better if I first..." "If I put some things..." "In perspective." "She's your friend's child." " She's not a child." "She's only 18." " Age doesn't mean anything." "You held her when she was one day old." "You shouldn't have." "What about Joep?" "He'd screw a letterbox." "You should talk to Conny." "I've never thrown out a friend until now." "Get out." "I don't want to be here when Joep sees you." "Get out." "Yes, alright." "Where's Tom?" " Lost him in the city somewhere." "Go look for him, asshole." "He can't be alone." "He's 42." " And confused." "So am I. I am too." "That image... of that young woman's body and all that water." "That she was skinned by all that water." "That was beautiful." "You should've seen it, Piet, it was..." "No, it was really beautiful." "Wow, man." "I apologize." "I should have trusted you." "I apologize." "I ran into Conny, and of course I was completely..." "I saw her and I..." "Tom said I did everything wrong." "She walked away with the kids..." "I'm sorry." "And Tom was there?" " Yes." "I'm sorry." "Tom?" " Cloaca." "I've got it." " You snorted." "Of course, I needed to get my head together in peace." "You're both so overbearing." "Piet has reason to be, and I'm working on it." "Seven signatures from the twelve." " Good." "That's tangible." "Now go home." "Not you, Piet, you live here." "But you two have to go." "If we all stay here, there'll be trouble." "We're in a downward spiral." "That's different from misery, which is okay." "Piet's problem is almost solved." "But Joep... you make me nervous." "I don't want to see your problem." "I don't want to live it, let alone solve it." "You know, I think it's bad." "Really bad." "It's okay." " We'll sort it out, the two of us." "But you, Joep." "And you, Maarten." "Let me put it this way, I can't be there for you now." "Sorry." "Joep, I..." "I'll be going back." " Yes, say hi to Laura." "Laura..." "Can you explain it to her?" "Can you explain my situation to her for me?" "You go do that." "Joep, I..." "I'll call you." " Yeah." "Okay, okay, okay." "Okay, our case." "Our case is not over yet." "Joep, you were going to work on Vermeulen." "Is he amenable?" "He is?" " I'll buy a place and be gone tomorrow." "You know which case I'd like to handle?" "The biggest fraud case of all times." "Against the United States and Russia." "An enormous indictment." "Fantastic." "You know why?" "The lunar missions." "Total nonsense." "It's impossible." "It's just not possible." "Think about it." "What proof do we have?" "A few unidentifiable images of men floating around in heavy suits." "And a rocket that could be made of papier máché." "It's fake." "Tom, you're starting to fall apart." "Why don't you go to sleep?" "Sleep?" "I'm going for a walk." "Can't you say no for once?" " No." "Tom..." " Tomorrow." "Tomorrow..." "Tomorrow..." "It didn't turn out as planned." "Nothing turned out as planned." "This has consequences for everyone." "I've got to back off, Tom." "I can't begin my term like this." "No FA." "No FA?" "I put someone on that ass Vermeulen." "He's a tough one." "And Brest, which went well." "He snapped like a twig and admitted the paintings were a gift." "Brest has boxes full of illegal declarations, you see?" "Brest?" "Sounds better than Vermeulen." "But we're not using this information." "You're going to tell Pieter." "And why is that, Minister?" "I was appointed to a position, you might say... where I can't afford the news of a friend stealing paintings to leak out." "I'm backing off." "We can close this case." "You can't back off now, it's not right." "That may be, but it happens." "More than you know." "You agreed." " No." "I don't know of any Van Goppels." "Yes, you do know about them." " The damn things go back to the City." "Has someone been pressuring you?" "Then what do you care?" "You'll be far away from all this." "I took a flat on the other side of town." "I never stayed here, never been here." "Look, Joep, we promised to take care of this for him." "Culture." "I've been dumped." "You?" "Minister of Culture?" "Under-Secretary of Culture." "Culture." "Man, what a comedown." "And you'll drop Pieter for that?" " Of course, I'm not taking any chances." "New Under-Secretary defends pal accused of stealing 8 paintings." "Stealing?" "What are you talking about?" " Bye, Tom." "That's it then." "Bye, Tom." "Cloaca." "So now Joep will decide whether I get money to direct my plays." "How will we tell him?" "He has those signatures." "That's not enough." "We needed Brest's confession, and Joep was going to handle that." "It was going well." " Piet is screwed." "God, Piet is really screwed." "I'll never drop him." "What will you say?" "I'll always keep in touch with him." "Do you want me to stay?" "Joep just handed me a dagger." " Tom, I'll stay here with you." "Thanks." "I have to..." "Hey, don't go away now." "I'll do it." "I'll tell him, but..." "I have to go." "I'll be right back." "Where's Tom?" " He had to go away for a few minutes." "And Joep?" "I heard he got Culture." "Joep and Culture." "Maybe because he goes to the theater twice a year." "It's like I'm visiting you." "Only you weren't expecting me." "What's the matter?" "You think I'm an asshole and you're right, but I'm no coward." "I'm here." "No, that's me." "I'm the coward, always have been." "No, not you." "Joep." "Joep is gone." "And I mean gone." "He was never here." "Never here?" "Look..." " Don't tell me he's dropping me." "It just popped into my mind, but in all likelihood I am mistaken." "Piet, I'm your friend..." " I don't think I want to hear this." "And you're not the one to tell me this." "Tom wouldn't like that." "Tom has left." " Tom would never agree to that." "Tom has left." "He had to leave urgently." "Joep isn't going after Brest or Vermeulen." "Joep has dropped you." "Yes." "You already knew?" "No, you just told me." "Anything else?" "I won't drop you." "This is going to have large financial repercussions for you." "I can lend you money." "Long-term, no interest." "A hundred grand or so." "Van Goppel always overexcited himself before he started painting." "I didn't know that at first." "I could see it in his work, but..." "How do you do that?" "How do you let yourself go without dissolving in the chaos?" "God, how do you do that?" "And why was I never able to do it?" "It's not about the layers of paint." "That's not it." "It was the suggestion." "I loved that so much." "A suggestion of..." "Finally." "Finally making an emotion tangible." "Van Goppel couldn't tell if a work was finished." "I can."
