/m/0gtbg7x | Sixty-year-old multi-billionaire Robert Miller manages a hedge fund with his daughter Brooke Miller (Brit Marling) and is about to sell it for a handsome profit. However, unbeknownst to his daughter and most of his other employees, he has cooked his company's books in order to cover an investment loss and avoid being arrested for fraud. As she thinks that the business is so successful, Brooke can't understand why her father wants to sell - and he says that he's started to feel old and tired, and wants to spend more time with his family. However, he has a mistress (Laetitia Casta) who is supposedly supported financially by him. Miller looks extremely nervous with the last meeting with the prospective investor.One night, while driving with his mistress, he begins to doze off and has an accident in which she is killed. Miller leaves the scene and decides to cover up his involvement to prevent the public, the prospective buyer James Mayfield (Graydon Carter) and his wife (Susan Sarandon), from discovering the truth.Miller calls Jimmy Grant (Nate Parker), a twenty-three year old from Harlem with a criminal record whom he helped get off the street in the past. After being driven home by Grant, Miller drags his injured body into bed at 4:30 am, arousing suspicion in his wife. The next day, he is questioned by police detective Bryer (Tim Roth). Bryer is keen on arresting a billionaire for murder and begins to put the pieces together. While all this is going on, Miller's daughter discovers the financial irregularities and realizes that she could be implicated and confronts her father.Jimmy is arrested and placed before a grand jury but still refuses to admit to helping Miller. Miller once again contemplates turning himself in. Even though Jimmy is about to go to prison, Miller tells Jimmy that investors are depending on him and that waiting for the sale to close before coming forward would serve the greater good. Eventually the sale is closed but Miller finds a way to avoid being charged. He proves that Detective Bryer fabricated evidence. The case against Jimmy is dismissed and the detective is ordered not to go near him. Miller's wife, thinking the police investigation is still on-going, tries to blackmail him with a separation agreement getting rid of his wealth. When Robert Miller refuses to sign, his wife says that she will tell the police that he got into bed at 4:30 am, bruised and bloody. In the final scene, Miller addresses a banquet honoring him for his successful business either because of his wife or in spite of her.He looks perfectly contented, but his wife and daughter don't look so happy, although they keep appearances up. | Arbitrage | 6d3b888b-a594-dc04-0e4b-1e44119b8401 | What is Robert Millers mistress' name? | [

/m/06fjkp | This article's plot summary may be too long or excessively detailed. Please help improve it by removing unnecessary details and making it more concise. (August 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
In late 1950s America, a drunken drifter, Larry Rhodes (Andy Griffith), is plucked out of a rural Arkansas jail by Marcia Jeffries (Patricia Neal) to sing on a radio show at station KGRK. His raw voice, folksy humor and personal charm bring about a strong local following, and he lands a television show in Memphis, Tennessee under the stage name "Lonesome" Rhodes, given to him on a whim by Jeffries.
With the support of the show's staff writer Mel Miller (Walter Matthau) and Jeffries, the charismatic Rhodes ad libs his way to Memphis area popularity. When he pokes fun at his sponsor, a mattress company, they initially pull their adsâbut when his adoring audience revolts, burning mattresses in the street, the sponsor discovers that Rhodes' irreverent pitches actually increased sales by 55%, and returns to the air with a new awareness of his power of persuasion. Rhodes also begins an affair with Jeffries and proposes to her.
An ambitious office worker at the mattress company, Joey DePalma (Anthony Franciosa), puts together a deal for Rhodes to star in his own show in New York City. The sponsor is Vitajex, an energy supplement which he ingeniously pitches as a yellow pill which will make men energetic and sexually powerful. Rhodes' fame, influence and ego balloon. Behind the scenes, a woman (Kay Medford) turns up claiming to be his legitimate wife, he berates his staff, and betrays Jeffries by eloping with a 17-year-old drum majorette (Lee Remick) whose baton-twirling act he features on his next TV program. The onetime drifter and his new bride move into a luxury penthouse. When Rhodes says he will "give" 10% of his share to Jeffries, she furiously reminds Rhodes that "A Face In the Crowd" was her idea, saying that she should have always been an equal partner, and now she demands to be one, and also demands it all be on paper. Rhodes agrees.
The sponsor's CEO introduces Rhodes to a senator named Fuller whose presidential campaign is faltering. Under Rhodes' tutelage as media coach, the senator gains the lead in national polls. But Rhodes' life begins to unravel as his amoral dealings with the people closest to him have placed his career trajectory on a collision course with their festering wounds. At one point, he goes home early to find his agent DePalma and young wife Betty Lou ending a tryst. He returns to Jeffries and proclaims to her that with the election victory assured, he will soon serve on the President's cabinet as "Secretary For National Morale," as a part of his organization called "Fighters for Fuller." He also expects Jeffries to resume her romance with him; however, she runs away.

Rhodes calls the studio and Jeffries listens to him rant as he threatens to jump to his death from the penthouse. Jeffries, who has been silent, suddenly screams at Rhodes, telling him to jump and to get out of her, and everybody's, life.
Miller angrily dares her to face Rhodes and tell him the whole truth. They go to the penthouse and find Rhodes drunk and disconnected from reality. He shouts folksy platitudes and sings at the top of his lungs while his longtime flunky Beanie (Rod Brasfield) works an applause machineâRhodes' own inventionâto replace the cheers, applause, and laughter of the audience that has abandoned him.

In late 1950s America, a drunken drifter, Larry Rhodes (Andy Griffith), is plucked out of a rural Arkansas jail by Marcia Jeffries (Patricia Neal) to sing on a radio show at station KGRK. His raw voice, folksy humor and personal charm bring about a strong local following, and he lands a television show in Memphis, Tennessee under the stage name "Lonesome" Rhodes, given to him on a whim by Jeffries.
With the support of the show's staff writer Mel Miller (Walter Matthau) and Jeffries, the charismatic Rhodes ad libs his way to Memphis area popularity. When he pokes fun at his sponsor, a mattress company, they initially pull their adsâbut when his adoring audience revolts, burning mattresses in the street, the sponsor discovers that Rhodes' irreverent pitches actually increased sales by 55%, and returns to the air with a new awareness of his power of persuasion. Rhodes also begins an affair with Jeffries and proposes to her.
An ambitious office worker at the mattress company, Joey DePalma (Anthony Franciosa), puts together a deal for Rhodes to star in his own show in New York City. The sponsor is Vitajex, an energy supplement which he ingeniously pitches as a yellow pill which will make men energetic and sexually powerful. Rhodes' fame, influence and ego balloon. Behind the scenes, a woman (Kay Medford) turns up claiming to be his legitimate wife, he berates his staff, and betrays Jeffries by eloping with a 17-year-old drum majorette (Lee Remick) whose baton-twirling act he features on his next TV program. The onetime drifter and his new bride move into a luxury penthouse. When Rhodes says he will "give" 10% of his share to Jeffries, she furiously reminds Rhodes that "A Face In the Crowd" was her idea, saying that she should have always been an equal partner, and now she demands to be one, and also demands it all be on paper. Rhodes agrees.
The sponsor's CEO introduces Rhodes to a senator named Fuller whose presidential campaign is faltering. Under Rhodes' tutelage as media coach, the senator gains the lead in national polls. But Rhodes' life begins to unravel as his amoral dealings with the people closest to him have placed his career trajectory on a collision course with their festering wounds. At one point, he goes home early to find his agent DePalma and young wife Betty Lou ending a tryst. He returns to Jeffries and proclaims to her that with the election victory assured, he will soon serve on the President's cabinet as "Secretary For National Morale," as a part of his organization called "Fighters for Fuller." He also expects Jeffries to resume her romance with him; however, she runs away.
Miller tells Jeffries he has written an exposé about Rhodes, entitled "Demagogue in Denim", and he has just found a publisher. Ultimately, Rhodes' ascent into fame and arrogance begins to turn on him.

He shouts folksy platitudes and sings at the top of his lungs while his longtime flunky Beanie (Rod Brasfield) works an applause machineâRhodes' own inventionâto replace the cheers, applause, and laughter of the audience that has abandoned him. When he vows to get revenge on the TV studio's engineer, Jeffries admits it was she who betrayed him. She demands he never call her again, and Miller tells Rhodes that life as he knew it is over.
Miller bemoans the fact that Rhodes is not really destroyed at all. Both the public's and the network's need for Rhodes, will, "after a reasonable cooling off period" of remorse and contrition, he predicts, return Rhodes to the public eye, but never to his previous height of power and success. Rhodes ends up screaming from the window of his penthouse for Marcia Jeffries to come back as she leaves in a taxi with Miller, who assures her that Rhodes won't kill himself, while a Coca-Cola sign continuously flashes off and on. (In the originial short story, Rhodes originally threatens suicide, then becomes both very drunk and agitated, waffling between attempting to seduce Marcia or to record another radio program immediately, and falls down a flight of stairs, and dies instantly; his death is promptly recast by the radio network for publicity purposes.) | A Face in the Crowd | 97780f10-f554-e85e-3c0c-806d0014a07d | Who is Rhodes sponsor? | [

/m/061ch5 | In the isolated and fictional South Australian fishing town of Prospect Bay, the only thing that connects the black and white communities is football. Gary "Blacky" Black (Nathan Phillips) and Dumby Red (Luke Carroll) are an exception; teenage best friends from different sides of the tracks. Dumby is the star of the football team and likely to become the next big Aboriginal star in the big leagues. Gary is the bookish son of hard-drinking and brutal white fisherman Bob Black (Simon Westaway). He is attracted to Dumby's beautiful sister, Clarence (Lisa Flanagan). Blacky's supportive mother helps him become a better player as he is chosen to be the ruckman in the teams upcoming grand final. Blacky has to overcome Thumper, the star player for the opposition. When gameday arrives Blacky at first struggles to make an impact on the game but Dumby inspires the team kicking several goals. When Dumby gets a mark near goals with the scores tied he hands it off to a team mate instead of taking the shot. The player kicks a point and Blacky has to run into Thumper to stop him from kicking the winning goal. Their team wins the premiership, but Dumby and Blacky's elation is short-lived. Dumby is passed over for the best-on-ground medal for the coach's son Simon Robertson. Dumby is disgusted and angered by the obvious racially motivated decision.
Disgruntled, Dumby and his cousin Pretty (Tony Briggs) attempt to rob the bar where the celebrations were held, hoping to find the best-on-ground medal. After breaking into the bar, they meet the drunk owner, beat him into unconsciousness and proceed to the safe with the key found in his pocket. Bob, waking to find the owner unconscious with a head wound, heads to the office and loads a double-barrelled shotgun. Bob sneaks up behind Dumby and fires a shot into the figure in the darkness. Bob discovers he has killed Dumby. Pretty, who's been hiding behind the door, jumps him and points the gun at his neck. Pretty reveals himself by removing his makeshift balaclava. He doesn't shoot Bob but fires the remaining round into the ceiling and runs away into the darkness. Bob is questioned by police over the shooting but is let off on the grounds of self-defense. Blacky is devastated over Dumby's death and angrily tosses his premiership medal into the lake. Clarence and Blacky console each other and fall in love. Bob and the family are greeted with hostility and harassed by the local Aboriginals which only further fuels Bob's violent temper and bigotry.
Clarence sneaks into Blacky's room one night and they make love. The next morning Bob discovers them in bed and beats Blacky. He racially insults Clarence and throws her out. Fed up with his father, Blacky leaves. Blacky meets with Dumby's family and attends his funeral. He aqquires the best on ground medal and places it in Dumby's casket. After returning home he is confronted by Bob and is told he is no longer welcome in his house due to his relationship with Clarence. Blacky defiantly stands still even after Bob punches him repeatedly. Defeated and exhausted, Bob leaves the family never to come back. The football team is disbanded as no Aboriginal players show up to training or games. The film ends with Blacky and Clarence jumping into the lake and swimming in the water. | Australian Rules | 4232ba31-2320-0976-ec85-c0ca1444100f | What activity connects the community? | [

/m/01j5x_ | In 1820, young Dr. Yasumoto, returned to Edo after graduating from Dutch medical school in Nagasaki. He presented himself at the public clinic managed by Dr. Niide (Toshiro Mifune), aka Akahige (Red Beard- because of the color of his beard), thinking it was merely a courtesy call arranged by his father (who also a physician).To his surprise and displeasure, he found that out he was expected to work there for a while. Yasumoto didn't find anything to his liking. He found out that the doctors were expected to sacrifice sun (the patients needed the sunny rooms), heat (better for the soul), and tatami (Japanese comfortable bedding). Extremely upset & frustrated because he had hoped to find a prestigious post as a shogun's personal physician, Yasumoto rebelled by not doing what he was supposed to do and refusing to follow the rules. He would not wear the traditional clinic doctor's uniform, refused to eat, drank sake (though it was forbidden) and complained that the patients stank (which one of his colleague at the clinic called "the smell of poverty"). He reclined on the lawn in front of an isolated ward reserved for a murderous female mental patient (which he had been warned to avoid). In short, he believed he was too good for this under-funded public clinic-that the job and patients were beneath him. His goal was to be asked to leave.One night, the mental patient escaped from her ward. Dr. Niide & nurse Osugi went out looking for her. The escaped patient (nicknamed the Mantis) showed up in Yasumoto's bedroom. She told Yasumoto the story of her life, how men had raped her many times, beginning at age 9. They threatened to kill her if she ever denounced them and she kept quiet. Finally, after a few years, she had had enough of the sexual abuse and snapped-- killing three men (thus the name Mantis). She was quite beautiful and Yasumoto succumbed to her charms. She seduced him, with the intention of killing him. Dr. Niide came back, just in time, to save him. Red Beard excused him for being drunk & for his weakness, as with all other men, because of her beauty and charm. According to Dr. Niide, the Mantis was just born that way.Little by little, Yasumoto started to integrate into the workforce at the clinic. For his 1st assistance in the operating room, he couldn't stand it & fainted. Yasumoto discovered that Dr. Niide, even though he looked stern & appeared difficult, had a kind heart. He managed to get a bit of money to help a patient's destitute daughter with 3 small children (the old man just passed away before her arrival). He gave her 5 ryos (1 gold ryo = USD$150 today). Later he said that he was able to get that money from the magistrate, because he knew the judge had a mistress on the side. Hinting that he might make this information public, Red Beard was able to get the charges against her for attacking her husband dropped. Gradually, Yasumoto started to put on the uniform.When Dr. Niide learned that funds for the clinic were being cut by the government, he was very unhappy. With Yasumoto in tow, he paid a visit to an obese wealthy lord. He ordered a lean diet for the man & charged him 50 ryos, instead of the usual fee of 30. On the way back to the clinic, they paid a visit to a brothel to see a patient with syphilis. There they discovered the madam & her servant were getting a 12 year old girl ready, by way of beating, to receive customers. Dr. Niide had to use force to defeat a dozen thugs working for that madam in order to bring the girl, Otoyo, to the clinic, and begin healing her.He assigned Yasumoto to care for the girl. She was to be his first official patient. Not only was she physically sick (with a fever), she manifested abnormal mental behavior as well (wiping the floor without stopping when she was not feverish, not speaking, and refusing kindnesses). At first Otoyo was resistant, but gradually with Dr. Niide's patience, she started to accept treatment (drinks & medications).Meanwhile, Yasumoto had a visitor named Masae. She was Yasumoto's ex-fiancee's (Chiugas) sister. At first, he refused to see her. But one day, Masae waited for Yasumoto at the gate, hoping to see him. This time he agreed to talk and invited her inside. Seeing Otoyo wearing a torn and weathered kimono, Masae brought her some nice clothes. But Otoyo was not happy with them, because she realized that Masae drew away Yasumoto's attention. In a jealous rage, she threw the new clothes into the mud. She was scolded by the female orderlies. Dr. Niide told them that this was actually a good sign. He could see that Otoyo's love for Yasumoto was her first step in being able to see good in people and overcoming the mistreatment she had experienced. He knew that with time, she would be able to love others as well.One day, while Osugi was having an intimate moment with another doctor at the clinic, the madwoman tried to hang herself. The Mantis' father came & scolded Osugi severely. Dr. Niide came to her defense & reprimanded the father for not caring enough for his daughter, allowing strangers to take advantage of her, causing her illness.One day, a 7 year old beggar boy named Chubo, snuck into the clinic kitchen, trying to steal some gruel. Otoyo befriended him, gave him food, and pleaded with him not to steal anymore. Some time later, the boy came to say goodbye, saying he, his parents, and 2 brothers were leaving for a better place. Otoyo was too young to suspect anything, believing they had some rich relatives who could help them out. Shortly thereafter, the whole family was brought in on the brink of death because they had swallowed rat poison. They were trying to kill themselves because of the disgrace of having a thief in the family (Chubo had been caught stealing again despite Otoyo's pleas). The boy & his parents were saved but his 2 brothers perished.Dr. Niide brought good news to Dr. Yasumoto. Masae's parents proposed that he marry Masae & forgive her sister. Their father, because of the broken engagement, had forbidden Masae's sister to set foot in his house. Now since she had given birth to a baby, he wanted to forgive her in order to be able to see his grandchild. Yasumoto also was promised a post under a shogunate's wing--the job he had always wanted.Yasumoto expressed remorse & regret with Dr. Niide for being haughty & arrogant upon his arrival at the clinic. He expressed regret for questioning Dr. Niide's intentions when Akahige wanted to see his notes. He had learned how to become a real doctor, not only with his knowledge in medicine but how to help others who were much less fortunate than he was - in short, how to be a compassionate doctor.At their wedding ceremony, Yasumoto announced to Masae, in front of their parents & Dr. Niide that he wished to inform her that if she wanted to become his wife, she should be prepared for a life without honor & money because he had decided to continue to work at the clinic of Dr. Niide. Dr. Niide tried to talk him out of it, realizing that it would be a challenging and difficult life--and not for the faint of heart. Yasumoto stuck to his newly learned principles.

He had learned how to become a real doctor, not only with his knowledge in medicine but how to help others who were much less fortunate than he was - in short, how to be a compassionate doctor.At their wedding ceremony, Yasumoto announced to Masae, in front of their parents & Dr. Niide that he wished to inform her that if she wanted to become his wife, she should be prepared for a life without honor & money because he had decided to continue to work at the clinic of Dr. Niide. Dr. Niide tried to talk him out of it, realizing that it would be a challenging and difficult life--and not for the faint of heart. Yasumoto stuck to his newly learned principles.

/m/01j5x_ | In 1820, young Dr. Yasumoto, returned to Edo after graduating from Dutch medical school in Nagasaki. He presented himself at the public clinic managed by Dr. Niide (Toshiro Mifune), aka Akahige (Red Beard- because of the color of his beard), thinking it was merely a courtesy call arranged by his father (who also a physician).To his surprise and displeasure, he found that out he was expected to work there for a while. Yasumoto didn't find anything to his liking. He found out that the doctors were expected to sacrifice sun (the patients needed the sunny rooms), heat (better for the soul), and tatami (Japanese comfortable bedding). Extremely upset & frustrated because he had hoped to find a prestigious post as a shogun's personal physician, Yasumoto rebelled by not doing what he was supposed to do and refusing to follow the rules. He would not wear the traditional clinic doctor's uniform, refused to eat, drank sake (though it was forbidden) and complained that the patients stank (which one of his colleague at the clinic called "the smell of poverty"). He reclined on the lawn in front of an isolated ward reserved for a murderous female mental patient (which he had been warned to avoid). In short, he believed he was too good for this under-funded public clinic-that the job and patients were beneath him. His goal was to be asked to leave.One night, the mental patient escaped from her ward. Dr. Niide & nurse Osugi went out looking for her. The escaped patient (nicknamed the Mantis) showed up in Yasumoto's bedroom. She told Yasumoto the story of her life, how men had raped her many times, beginning at age 9. They threatened to kill her if she ever denounced them and she kept quiet. Finally, after a few years, she had had enough of the sexual abuse and snapped-- killing three men (thus the name Mantis). She was quite beautiful and Yasumoto succumbed to her charms. She seduced him, with the intention of killing him. Dr. Niide came back, just in time, to save him. Red Beard excused him for being drunk & for his weakness, as with all other men, because of her beauty and charm. According to Dr. Niide, the Mantis was just born that way.Little by little, Yasumoto started to integrate into the workforce at the clinic. For his 1st assistance in the operating room, he couldn't stand it & fainted. Yasumoto discovered that Dr. Niide, even though he looked stern & appeared difficult, had a kind heart. He managed to get a bit of money to help a patient's destitute daughter with 3 small children (the old man just passed away before her arrival). He gave her 5 ryos (1 gold ryo = USD$150 today). Later he said that he was able to get that money from the magistrate, because he knew the judge had a mistress on the side. Hinting that he might make this information public, Red Beard was able to get the charges against her for attacking her husband dropped. Gradually, Yasumoto started to put on the uniform.When Dr. Niide learned that funds for the clinic were being cut by the government, he was very unhappy. With Yasumoto in tow, he paid a visit to an obese wealthy lord. He ordered a lean diet for the man & charged him 50 ryos, instead of the usual fee of 30. On the way back to the clinic, they paid a visit to a brothel to see a patient with syphilis. There they discovered the madam & her servant were getting a 12 year old girl ready, by way of beating, to receive customers. Dr. Niide had to use force to defeat a dozen thugs working for that madam in order to bring the girl, Otoyo, to the clinic, and begin healing her.He assigned Yasumoto to care for the girl. She was to be his first official patient. Not only was she physically sick (with a fever), she manifested abnormal mental behavior as well (wiping the floor without stopping when she was not feverish, not speaking, and refusing kindnesses). At first Otoyo was resistant, but gradually with Dr. Niide's patience, she started to accept treatment (drinks & medications).Meanwhile, Yasumoto had a visitor named Masae. She was Yasumoto's ex-fiancee's (Chiugas) sister. At first, he refused to see her. But one day, Masae waited for Yasumoto at the gate, hoping to see him. This time he agreed to talk and invited her inside. Seeing Otoyo wearing a torn and weathered kimono, Masae brought her some nice clothes. But Otoyo was not happy with them, because she realized that Masae drew away Yasumoto's attention. In a jealous rage, she threw the new clothes into the mud. She was scolded by the female orderlies. Dr. Niide told them that this was actually a good sign. He could see that Otoyo's love for Yasumoto was her first step in being able to see good in people and overcoming the mistreatment she had experienced. He knew that with time, she would be able to love others as well.One day, while Osugi was having an intimate moment with another doctor at the clinic, the madwoman tried to hang herself. The Mantis' father came & scolded Osugi severely. Dr. Niide came to her defense & reprimanded the father for not caring enough for his daughter, allowing strangers to take advantage of her, causing her illness.One day, a 7 year old beggar boy named Chubo, snuck into the clinic kitchen, trying to steal some gruel. Otoyo befriended him, gave him food, and pleaded with him not to steal anymore. Some time later, the boy came to say goodbye, saying he, his parents, and 2 brothers were leaving for a better place. Otoyo was too young to suspect anything, believing they had some rich relatives who could help them out. Shortly thereafter, the whole family was brought in on the brink of death because they had swallowed rat poison. They were trying to kill themselves because of the disgrace of having a thief in the family (Chubo had been caught stealing again despite Otoyo's pleas). The boy & his parents were saved but his 2 brothers perished.Dr. Niide brought good news to Dr. Yasumoto. Masae's parents proposed that he marry Masae & forgive her sister. Their father, because of the broken engagement, had forbidden Masae's sister to set foot in his house. Now since she had given birth to a baby, he wanted to forgive her in order to be able to see his grandchild. Yasumoto also was promised a post under a shogunate's wing--the job he had always wanted.Yasumoto expressed remorse & regret with Dr. Niide for being haughty & arrogant upon his arrival at the clinic.

Later he said that he was able to get that money from the magistrate, because he knew the judge had a mistress on the side. Hinting that he might make this information public, Red Beard was able to get the charges against her for attacking her husband dropped. Gradually, Yasumoto started to put on the uniform.When Dr. Niide learned that funds for the clinic were being cut by the government, he was very unhappy. With Yasumoto in tow, he paid a visit to an obese wealthy lord. He ordered a lean diet for the man & charged him 50 ryos, instead of the usual fee of 30. On the way back to the clinic, they paid a visit to a brothel to see a patient with syphilis. There they discovered the madam & her servant were getting a 12 year old girl ready, by way of beating, to receive customers. Dr. Niide had to use force to defeat a dozen thugs working for that madam in order to bring the girl, Otoyo, to the clinic, and begin healing her.He assigned Yasumoto to care for the girl. She was to be his first official patient. Not only was she physically sick (with a fever), she manifested abnormal mental behavior as well (wiping the floor without stopping when she was not feverish, not speaking, and refusing kindnesses). At first Otoyo was resistant, but gradually with Dr. Niide's patience, she started to accept treatment (drinks & medications).Meanwhile, Yasumoto had a visitor named Masae. She was Yasumoto's ex-fiancee's (Chiugas) sister. At first, he refused to see her. But one day, Masae waited for Yasumoto at the gate, hoping to see him. This time he agreed to talk and invited her inside. Seeing Otoyo wearing a torn and weathered kimono, Masae brought her some nice clothes. But Otoyo was not happy with them, because she realized that Masae drew away Yasumoto's attention. In a jealous rage, she threw the new clothes into the mud. She was scolded by the female orderlies. Dr. Niide told them that this was actually a good sign. He could see that Otoyo's love for Yasumoto was her first step in being able to see good in people and overcoming the mistreatment she had experienced. He knew that with time, she would be able to love others as well.One day, while Osugi was having an intimate moment with another doctor at the clinic, the madwoman tried to hang herself. The Mantis' father came & scolded Osugi severely. Dr. Niide came to her defense & reprimanded the father for not caring enough for his daughter, allowing strangers to take advantage of her, causing her illness.One day, a 7 year old beggar boy named Chubo, snuck into the clinic kitchen, trying to steal some gruel. Otoyo befriended him, gave him food, and pleaded with him not to steal anymore. Some time later, the boy came to say goodbye, saying he, his parents, and 2 brothers were leaving for a better place. Otoyo was too young to suspect anything, believing they had some rich relatives who could help them out. Shortly thereafter, the whole family was brought in on the brink of death because they had swallowed rat poison. They were trying to kill themselves because of the disgrace of having a thief in the family (Chubo had been caught stealing again despite Otoyo's pleas). The boy & his parents were saved but his 2 brothers perished.Dr. Niide brought good news to Dr. Yasumoto. Masae's parents proposed that he marry Masae & forgive her sister. Their father, because of the broken engagement, had forbidden Masae's sister to set foot in his house. Now since she had given birth to a baby, he wanted to forgive her in order to be able to see his grandchild. Yasumoto also was promised a post under a shogunate's wing--the job he had always wanted.Yasumoto expressed remorse & regret with Dr. Niide for being haughty & arrogant upon his arrival at the clinic. He expressed regret for questioning Dr. Niide's intentions when Akahige wanted to see his notes. He had learned how to become a real doctor, not only with his knowledge in medicine but how to help others who were much less fortunate than he was - in short, how to be a compassionate doctor.At their wedding ceremony, Yasumoto announced to Masae, in front of their parents & Dr. Niide that he wished to inform her that if she wanted to become his wife, she should be prepared for a life without honor & money because he had decided to continue to work at the clinic of Dr. Niide. Dr. Niide tried to talk him out of it, realizing that it would be a challenging and difficult life--and not for the faint of heart. Yasumoto stuck to his newly learned principles. Akahige was inwardly pleased. | Red Beard | a983993e-559a-67f4-b748-04b5cc0706f7 | Who is connected to the discovery of a corpse? | [

/m/01j5x_ | In 1820, young Dr. Yasumoto, returned to Edo after graduating from Dutch medical school in Nagasaki. He presented himself at the public clinic managed by Dr. Niide (Toshiro Mifune), aka Akahige (Red Beard- because of the color of his beard), thinking it was merely a courtesy call arranged by his father (who also a physician).To his surprise and displeasure, he found that out he was expected to work there for a while. Yasumoto didn't find anything to his liking. He found out that the doctors were expected to sacrifice sun (the patients needed the sunny rooms), heat (better for the soul), and tatami (Japanese comfortable bedding). Extremely upset & frustrated because he had hoped to find a prestigious post as a shogun's personal physician, Yasumoto rebelled by not doing what he was supposed to do and refusing to follow the rules. He would not wear the traditional clinic doctor's uniform, refused to eat, drank sake (though it was forbidden) and complained that the patients stank (which one of his colleague at the clinic called "the smell of poverty"). He reclined on the lawn in front of an isolated ward reserved for a murderous female mental patient (which he had been warned to avoid). In short, he believed he was too good for this under-funded public clinic-that the job and patients were beneath him. His goal was to be asked to leave.One night, the mental patient escaped from her ward. Dr. Niide & nurse Osugi went out looking for her. The escaped patient (nicknamed the Mantis) showed up in Yasumoto's bedroom. She told Yasumoto the story of her life, how men had raped her many times, beginning at age 9. They threatened to kill her if she ever denounced them and she kept quiet. Finally, after a few years, she had had enough of the sexual abuse and snapped-- killing three men (thus the name Mantis). She was quite beautiful and Yasumoto succumbed to her charms. She seduced him, with the intention of killing him. Dr. Niide came back, just in time, to save him. Red Beard excused him for being drunk & for his weakness, as with all other men, because of her beauty and charm. According to Dr. Niide, the Mantis was just born that way.Little by little, Yasumoto started to integrate into the workforce at the clinic.

Dr. Niide tried to talk him out of it, realizing that it would be a challenging and difficult life--and not for the faint of heart. Yasumoto stuck to his newly learned principles.

/m/01j5x_ | In 1820, young Dr. Yasumoto, returned to Edo after graduating from Dutch medical school in Nagasaki. He presented himself at the public clinic managed by Dr. Niide (Toshiro Mifune), aka Akahige (Red Beard- because of the color of his beard), thinking it was merely a courtesy call arranged by his father (who also a physician).To his surprise and displeasure, he found that out he was expected to work there for a while. Yasumoto didn't find anything to his liking. He found out that the doctors were expected to sacrifice sun (the patients needed the sunny rooms), heat (better for the soul), and tatami (Japanese comfortable bedding). Extremely upset & frustrated because he had hoped to find a prestigious post as a shogun's personal physician, Yasumoto rebelled by not doing what he was supposed to do and refusing to follow the rules. He would not wear the traditional clinic doctor's uniform, refused to eat, drank sake (though it was forbidden) and complained that the patients stank (which one of his colleague at the clinic called "the smell of poverty"). He reclined on the lawn in front of an isolated ward reserved for a murderous female mental patient (which he had been warned to avoid). In short, he believed he was too good for this under-funded public clinic-that the job and patients were beneath him. His goal was to be asked to leave.One night, the mental patient escaped from her ward. Dr. Niide & nurse Osugi went out looking for her. The escaped patient (nicknamed the Mantis) showed up in Yasumoto's bedroom. She told Yasumoto the story of her life, how men had raped her many times, beginning at age 9. They threatened to kill her if she ever denounced them and she kept quiet. Finally, after a few years, she had had enough of the sexual abuse and snapped-- killing three men (thus the name Mantis). She was quite beautiful and Yasumoto succumbed to her charms. She seduced him, with the intention of killing him. Dr. Niide came back, just in time, to save him. Red Beard excused him for being drunk & for his weakness, as with all other men, because of her beauty and charm. According to Dr. Niide, the Mantis was just born that way.Little by little, Yasumoto started to integrate into the workforce at the clinic. For his 1st assistance in the operating room, he couldn't stand it & fainted. Yasumoto discovered that Dr. Niide, even though he looked stern & appeared difficult, had a kind heart. He managed to get a bit of money to help a patient's destitute daughter with 3 small children (the old man just passed away before her arrival). He gave her 5 ryos (1 gold ryo = USD$150 today). Later he said that he was able to get that money from the magistrate, because he knew the judge had a mistress on the side. Hinting that he might make this information public, Red Beard was able to get the charges against her for attacking her husband dropped. Gradually, Yasumoto started to put on the uniform.When Dr. Niide learned that funds for the clinic were being cut by the government, he was very unhappy. With Yasumoto in tow, he paid a visit to an obese wealthy lord. He ordered a lean diet for the man & charged him 50 ryos, instead of the usual fee of 30. On the way back to the clinic, they paid a visit to a brothel to see a patient with syphilis. There they discovered the madam & her servant were getting a 12 year old girl ready, by way of beating, to receive customers. Dr. Niide had to use force to defeat a dozen thugs working for that madam in order to bring the girl, Otoyo, to the clinic, and begin healing her.He assigned Yasumoto to care for the girl. She was to be his first official patient. Not only was she physically sick (with a fever), she manifested abnormal mental behavior as well (wiping the floor without stopping when she was not feverish, not speaking, and refusing kindnesses). At first Otoyo was resistant, but gradually with Dr. Niide's patience, she started to accept treatment (drinks & medications).Meanwhile, Yasumoto had a visitor named Masae. She was Yasumoto's ex-fiancee's (Chiugas) sister. At first, he refused to see her. But one day, Masae waited for Yasumoto at the gate, hoping to see him. This time he agreed to talk and invited her inside. Seeing Otoyo wearing a torn and weathered kimono, Masae brought her some nice clothes. But Otoyo was not happy with them, because she realized that Masae drew away Yasumoto's attention. In a jealous rage, she threw the new clothes into the mud. She was scolded by the female orderlies. Dr. Niide told them that this was actually a good sign. He could see that Otoyo's love for Yasumoto was her first step in being able to see good in people and overcoming the mistreatment she had experienced. He knew that with time, she would be able to love others as well.One day, while Osugi was having an intimate moment with another doctor at the clinic, the madwoman tried to hang herself. The Mantis' father came & scolded Osugi severely. Dr. Niide came to her defense & reprimanded the father for not caring enough for his daughter, allowing strangers to take advantage of her, causing her illness.One day, a 7 year old beggar boy named Chubo, snuck into the clinic kitchen, trying to steal some gruel. Otoyo befriended him, gave him food, and pleaded with him not to steal anymore. Some time later, the boy came to say goodbye, saying he, his parents, and 2 brothers were leaving for a better place. Otoyo was too young to suspect anything, believing they had some rich relatives who could help them out. Shortly thereafter, the whole family was brought in on the brink of death because they had swallowed rat poison. They were trying to kill themselves because of the disgrace of having a thief in the family (Chubo had been caught stealing again despite Otoyo's pleas). The boy & his parents were saved but his 2 brothers perished.Dr. Niide brought good news to Dr. Yasumoto. Masae's parents proposed that he marry Masae & forgive her sister. Their father, because of the broken engagement, had forbidden Masae's sister to set foot in his house.

He managed to get a bit of money to help a patient's destitute daughter with 3 small children (the old man just passed away before her arrival). He gave her 5 ryos (1 gold ryo = USD$150 today). Later he said that he was able to get that money from the magistrate, because he knew the judge had a mistress on the side. Hinting that he might make this information public, Red Beard was able to get the charges against her for attacking her husband dropped. Gradually, Yasumoto started to put on the uniform.When Dr. Niide learned that funds for the clinic were being cut by the government, he was very unhappy. With Yasumoto in tow, he paid a visit to an obese wealthy lord. He ordered a lean diet for the man & charged him 50 ryos, instead of the usual fee of 30. On the way back to the clinic, they paid a visit to a brothel to see a patient with syphilis. There they discovered the madam & her servant were getting a 12 year old girl ready, by way of beating, to receive customers. Dr. Niide had to use force to defeat a dozen thugs working for that madam in order to bring the girl, Otoyo, to the clinic, and begin healing her.He assigned Yasumoto to care for the girl. She was to be his first official patient. Not only was she physically sick (with a fever), she manifested abnormal mental behavior as well (wiping the floor without stopping when she was not feverish, not speaking, and refusing kindnesses). At first Otoyo was resistant, but gradually with Dr. Niide's patience, she started to accept treatment (drinks & medications).Meanwhile, Yasumoto had a visitor named Masae. She was Yasumoto's ex-fiancee's (Chiugas) sister. At first, he refused to see her. But one day, Masae waited for Yasumoto at the gate, hoping to see him. This time he agreed to talk and invited her inside. Seeing Otoyo wearing a torn and weathered kimono, Masae brought her some nice clothes. But Otoyo was not happy with them, because she realized that Masae drew away Yasumoto's attention. In a jealous rage, she threw the new clothes into the mud. She was scolded by the female orderlies. Dr. Niide told them that this was actually a good sign. He could see that Otoyo's love for Yasumoto was her first step in being able to see good in people and overcoming the mistreatment she had experienced. He knew that with time, she would be able to love others as well.One day, while Osugi was having an intimate moment with another doctor at the clinic, the madwoman tried to hang herself. The Mantis' father came & scolded Osugi severely. Dr. Niide came to her defense & reprimanded the father for not caring enough for his daughter, allowing strangers to take advantage of her, causing her illness.One day, a 7 year old beggar boy named Chubo, snuck into the clinic kitchen, trying to steal some gruel. Otoyo befriended him, gave him food, and pleaded with him not to steal anymore. Some time later, the boy came to say goodbye, saying he, his parents, and 2 brothers were leaving for a better place. Otoyo was too young to suspect anything, believing they had some rich relatives who could help them out. Shortly thereafter, the whole family was brought in on the brink of death because they had swallowed rat poison. They were trying to kill themselves because of the disgrace of having a thief in the family (Chubo had been caught stealing again despite Otoyo's pleas). The boy & his parents were saved but his 2 brothers perished.Dr. Niide brought good news to Dr. Yasumoto. Masae's parents proposed that he marry Masae & forgive her sister. Their father, because of the broken engagement, had forbidden Masae's sister to set foot in his house. Now since she had given birth to a baby, he wanted to forgive her in order to be able to see his grandchild. Yasumoto also was promised a post under a shogunate's wing--the job he had always wanted.Yasumoto expressed remorse & regret with Dr. Niide for being haughty & arrogant upon his arrival at the clinic. He expressed regret for questioning Dr. Niide's intentions when Akahige wanted to see his notes. He had learned how to become a real doctor, not only with his knowledge in medicine but how to help others who were much less fortunate than he was - in short, how to be a compassionate doctor.At their wedding ceremony, Yasumoto announced to Masae, in front of their parents & Dr. Niide that he wished to inform her that if she wanted to become his wife, she should be prepared for a life without honor & money because he had decided to continue to work at the clinic of Dr. Niide. Dr. Niide tried to talk him out of it, realizing that it would be a challenging and difficult life--and not for the faint of heart. Yasumoto stuck to his newly learned principles. Akahige was inwardly pleased. | Red Beard | d4c5de0c-89ab-1b37-fec4-679711a22ffa | When does this story take place? | [

/m/01j5x_ | In 1820, young Dr. Yasumoto, returned to Edo after graduating from Dutch medical school in Nagasaki. He presented himself at the public clinic managed by Dr. Niide (Toshiro Mifune), aka Akahige (Red Beard- because of the color of his beard), thinking it was merely a courtesy call arranged by his father (who also a physician).To his surprise and displeasure, he found that out he was expected to work there for a while. Yasumoto didn't find anything to his liking. He found out that the doctors were expected to sacrifice sun (the patients needed the sunny rooms), heat (better for the soul), and tatami (Japanese comfortable bedding). Extremely upset & frustrated because he had hoped to find a prestigious post as a shogun's personal physician, Yasumoto rebelled by not doing what he was supposed to do and refusing to follow the rules. He would not wear the traditional clinic doctor's uniform, refused to eat, drank sake (though it was forbidden) and complained that the patients stank (which one of his colleague at the clinic called "the smell of poverty"). He reclined on the lawn in front of an isolated ward reserved for a murderous female mental patient (which he had been warned to avoid). In short, he believed he was too good for this under-funded public clinic-that the job and patients were beneath him. His goal was to be asked to leave.One night, the mental patient escaped from her ward. Dr. Niide & nurse Osugi went out looking for her. The escaped patient (nicknamed the Mantis) showed up in Yasumoto's bedroom. She told Yasumoto the story of her life, how men had raped her many times, beginning at age 9. They threatened to kill her if she ever denounced them and she kept quiet. Finally, after a few years, she had had enough of the sexual abuse and snapped-- killing three men (thus the name Mantis). She was quite beautiful and Yasumoto succumbed to her charms. She seduced him, with the intention of killing him. Dr. Niide came back, just in time, to save him. Red Beard excused him for being drunk & for his weakness, as with all other men, because of her beauty and charm.

Dr. Niide tried to talk him out of it, realizing that it would be a challenging and difficult life--and not for the faint of heart. Yasumoto stuck to his newly learned principles.

/m/01j5x_ | In 1820, young Dr. Yasumoto, returned to Edo after graduating from Dutch medical school in Nagasaki. He presented himself at the public clinic managed by Dr. Niide (Toshiro Mifune), aka Akahige (Red Beard- because of the color of his beard), thinking it was merely a courtesy call arranged by his father (who also a physician).To his surprise and displeasure, he found that out he was expected to work there for a while. Yasumoto didn't find anything to his liking. He found out that the doctors were expected to sacrifice sun (the patients needed the sunny rooms), heat (better for the soul), and tatami (Japanese comfortable bedding). Extremely upset & frustrated because he had hoped to find a prestigious post as a shogun's personal physician, Yasumoto rebelled by not doing what he was supposed to do and refusing to follow the rules. He would not wear the traditional clinic doctor's uniform, refused to eat, drank sake (though it was forbidden) and complained that the patients stank (which one of his colleague at the clinic called "the smell of poverty"). He reclined on the lawn in front of an isolated ward reserved for a murderous female mental patient (which he had been warned to avoid). In short, he believed he was too good for this under-funded public clinic-that the job and patients were beneath him. His goal was to be asked to leave.One night, the mental patient escaped from her ward. Dr. Niide & nurse Osugi went out looking for her. The escaped patient (nicknamed the Mantis) showed up in Yasumoto's bedroom. She told Yasumoto the story of her life, how men had raped her many times, beginning at age 9. They threatened to kill her if she ever denounced them and she kept quiet. Finally, after a few years, she had had enough of the sexual abuse and snapped-- killing three men (thus the name Mantis). She was quite beautiful and Yasumoto succumbed to her charms. She seduced him, with the intention of killing him. Dr. Niide came back, just in time, to save him. Red Beard excused him for being drunk & for his weakness, as with all other men, because of her beauty and charm. According to Dr. Niide, the Mantis was just born that way.Little by little, Yasumoto started to integrate into the workforce at the clinic. For his 1st assistance in the operating room, he couldn't stand it & fainted. Yasumoto discovered that Dr. Niide, even though he looked stern & appeared difficult, had a kind heart. He managed to get a bit of money to help a patient's destitute daughter with 3 small children (the old man just passed away before her arrival). He gave her 5 ryos (1 gold ryo = USD$150 today). Later he said that he was able to get that money from the magistrate, because he knew the judge had a mistress on the side. Hinting that he might make this information public, Red Beard was able to get the charges against her for attacking her husband dropped. Gradually, Yasumoto started to put on the uniform.When Dr. Niide learned that funds for the clinic were being cut by the government, he was very unhappy. With Yasumoto in tow, he paid a visit to an obese wealthy lord. He ordered a lean diet for the man & charged him 50 ryos, instead of the usual fee of 30. On the way back to the clinic, they paid a visit to a brothel to see a patient with syphilis. There they discovered the madam & her servant were getting a 12 year old girl ready, by way of beating, to receive customers. Dr. Niide had to use force to defeat a dozen thugs working for that madam in order to bring the girl, Otoyo, to the clinic, and begin healing her.He assigned Yasumoto to care for the girl. She was to be his first official patient. Not only was she physically sick (with a fever), she manifested abnormal mental behavior as well (wiping the floor without stopping when she was not feverish, not speaking, and refusing kindnesses). At first Otoyo was resistant, but gradually with Dr. Niide's patience, she started to accept treatment (drinks & medications).Meanwhile, Yasumoto had a visitor named Masae. She was Yasumoto's ex-fiancee's (Chiugas) sister. At first, he refused to see her. But one day, Masae waited for Yasumoto at the gate, hoping to see him. This time he agreed to talk and invited her inside. Seeing Otoyo wearing a torn and weathered kimono, Masae brought her some nice clothes. But Otoyo was not happy with them, because she realized that Masae drew away Yasumoto's attention. In a jealous rage, she threw the new clothes into the mud. She was scolded by the female orderlies. Dr. Niide told them that this was actually a good sign. He could see that Otoyo's love for Yasumoto was her first step in being able to see good in people and overcoming the mistreatment she had experienced. He knew that with time, she would be able to love others as well.One day, while Osugi was having an intimate moment with another doctor at the clinic, the madwoman tried to hang herself. The Mantis' father came & scolded Osugi severely. Dr. Niide came to her defense & reprimanded the father for not caring enough for his daughter, allowing strangers to take advantage of her, causing her illness.One day, a 7 year old beggar boy named Chubo, snuck into the clinic kitchen, trying to steal some gruel. Otoyo befriended him, gave him food, and pleaded with him not to steal anymore. Some time later, the boy came to say goodbye, saying he, his parents, and 2 brothers were leaving for a better place. Otoyo was too young to suspect anything, believing they had some rich relatives who could help them out. Shortly thereafter, the whole family was brought in on the brink of death because they had swallowed rat poison. They were trying to kill themselves because of the disgrace of having a thief in the family (Chubo had been caught stealing again despite Otoyo's pleas). The boy & his parents were saved but his 2 brothers perished.Dr. Niide brought good news to Dr. Yasumoto. Masae's parents proposed that he marry Masae & forgive her sister.

Andrzej and his wife quarrel about what to do, and Andrzej swims to shore to fetch the police. When the young man realizes that Andrzej has gone he comes out from hiding behind a buoy on the lake and swims to the yacht. There he sees Krystyna naked drying off. He boards the yacht and Krystyna tells him he is as bad as Andrzej but sexual attraction wins out and they have sex, off screen. Krystyna sails back to the dock, the man jumps off and goes on his way before Andrzej appears and takes charge again. He wants to go to the police to report the young man missing.

/m/0dgr73z | George and Linda Gergenblatt are an urban married couple who purchase a micro-loft in New York after much hesitation. George is expecting a promotion while Linda is trying to sell a documentary to HBO. Soon after purchasing their home, George learns that his company has folded, overnight, while HBO rejects Linda's documentary. With both out of work, they are forced to sell their apartment and drive to Atlanta to live with George's arrogant brother Rick and his wife Marisa after Rick offers George a job.
After many hours on the highway, Linda demands they stop to rest. The closest place to stop appears to be a bed and breakfast hotel named Elysium. After exiting the highway, as they approach, they are surprised to see a naked man walking ahead of them. He approaches them. Startled and apprehensive, George tries to back up to the highway, but accidentally flips the car over. The nude man, Wayne Davidson, helps them out of the car, and they are forced to stay at the hotel. They meet several colorful guests, and then go to bed. While trying to sleep, they are distracted by noises downstairs. When they go to investigate, they learn that Elysium is a hippie commune. They meet even more various, eccentric residents of Elysium, including Seth, Eva, and Elysium's owner Carvin. George and Linda spend the night feeling more alive than before. In the morning, everyone helps flip the car back upright so they can leave, as Seth urges them to stay, but they continue on to Atlanta.
George and Linda arrive at Rick's house and find the atmosphere chaotic. George quickly reaches a breaking point with Rick and takes Linda back to Elysium, where they are welcomed back. George is excited about the simpler lifestyle while Linda is hesitant. They decide to stay and give the place a two-week trial run. After a few days, Linda starts feeling enlightened after drinking some drug laced tea in the truth circle, while George begins having second thoughts. George and Linda soon learn that 'free love' is strongly encouraged as Seth and Eva want to seduce Linda and George, respectively. Both George and Linda rebuff the notion of free love, and several crazy situations arise during that period, bizarre and otherwise.
At the same time, Elysium is being targeted by property developers to build a casino on the property, as title to the property is disputed, and Carvin has misplaced the deed to the land. After the developers arrive with a bulldozer, to make a TV reporting-crew take more interest, Linda scares them off by flashing them her breasts, and many of the other residents join her, which gets sensationalized coverage, and halts the proceeding. Linda is lauded as a hero by the commune. The two weeks are up, and George demands that they leave, saying that if they stay, they would have to give in to 'free love'. Linda wants to stay and has sex with Seth. George is pressured to have sex with Eva, but he becomes uncomfortable and drives her away with his awkward and bizarre behavior. The next morning, George reaches a breaking point, again, stating that he dislikes the rules of Elysium and wants to leave. Linda wants to stay, so George goes back to Rick's house alone.
Seth believes he has found his soul mate in Linda and searches for the deed to Elysium, which he finds and sells to the property developers to start a new life with Linda. A child from the commune witnesses the burning of the deed by Seth and the man that wants to build the casino. Seth tells Linda he wants them to leave Elysium behind, together, and that the others can look after themselves. Linda refuses.
In the meantime, George realizes he loves Linda and comes back to find her, getting into a fight with Seth while the commune looks on and tries to help 'non-violently'. The child that witnessed the burning of the deed by Seth tells the commune what happened and George punches Seth in the jaw.
In the aftermath, the news show that visited Elysium does a follow-up story about the commune. George and Linda start a publishing company, with their first book being a political thriller novel written by Wayne. The novel is then fast-tracked into a film adaptation starring Ray Liotta. Carvin reclaims his rights to Elysium after he is reunited with all the original founders of Elysium, one of whom had another copy of the deed.

They meet even more various, eccentric residents of Elysium, including Seth, Eva, and Elysium's owner Carvin. George and Linda spend the night feeling more alive than before. In the morning, everyone helps flip the car back upright so they can leave, as Seth urges them to stay, but they continue on to Atlanta.
George and Linda arrive at Rick's house and find the atmosphere chaotic. George quickly reaches a breaking point with Rick and takes Linda back to Elysium, where they are welcomed back. George is excited about the simpler lifestyle while Linda is hesitant. They decide to stay and give the place a two-week trial run. After a few days, Linda starts feeling enlightened after drinking some drug laced tea in the truth circle, while George begins having second thoughts. George and Linda soon learn that 'free love' is strongly encouraged as Seth and Eva want to seduce Linda and George, respectively. Both George and Linda rebuff the notion of free love, and several crazy situations arise during that period, bizarre and otherwise.
At the same time, Elysium is being targeted by property developers to build a casino on the property, as title to the property is disputed, and Carvin has misplaced the deed to the land. After the developers arrive with a bulldozer, to make a TV reporting-crew take more interest, Linda scares them off by flashing them her breasts, and many of the other residents join her, which gets sensationalized coverage, and halts the proceeding. Linda is lauded as a hero by the commune. The two weeks are up, and George demands that they leave, saying that if they stay, they would have to give in to 'free love'. Linda wants to stay and has sex with Seth. George is pressured to have sex with Eva, but he becomes uncomfortable and drives her away with his awkward and bizarre behavior. The next morning, George reaches a breaking point, again, stating that he dislikes the rules of Elysium and wants to leave. Linda wants to stay, so George goes back to Rick's house alone.
Seth believes he has found his soul mate in Linda and searches for the deed to Elysium, which he finds and sells to the property developers to start a new life with Linda. A child from the commune witnesses the burning of the deed by Seth and the man that wants to build the casino. Seth tells Linda he wants them to leave Elysium behind, together, and that the others can look after themselves. Linda refuses.
In the meantime, George realizes he loves Linda and comes back to find her, getting into a fight with Seth while the commune looks on and tries to help 'non-violently'. The child that witnessed the burning of the deed by Seth tells the commune what happened and George punches Seth in the jaw.
In the aftermath, the news show that visited Elysium does a follow-up story about the commune. George and Linda start a publishing company, with their first book being a political thriller novel written by Wayne. The novel is then fast-tracked into a film adaptation starring Ray Liotta. Carvin reclaims his rights to Elysium after he is reunited with all the original founders of Elysium, one of whom had another copy of the deed.

/m/0b7h_57 | The film opens with Olive Penderghast (Emma Stone) talking into a web cam about how her little white lie ballooned into an uncontrollable monster. She says she will explain her side, the true side of what occurred. She says that she was a nobody that no one noticed outside her best friend Rhiannon (Aly Michalka). Rhiannon wants to go camping with Olive but Olive lies and says she is going on a date. In reality, she just hangs around the house all weekend singing "Pocketful of Sunshine" by Natasha Bedingfield.The following Monday, pressed by Rhiannon, Olive lies about losing her virginity to a college guy. Marianne (Amanda Bynes), an overly enthusiastic Christian, overhears her telling the lie and soon it spreads like wildfire.The school has a conservative teen church group run by Marianne who decides that Olive will be their next project. The group's harassment disguised as concern comes to head at an English class run by Mr. Griffith (Thomas Haden Church). The class happens to be reading The Scarlet Letter, a novel about adultery and shame. When one of the girls from the church group makes a side comment at Olive, Olive shoots back one of her own. This gets her sent to the principal's office and Olive is given detention. It is there she sees her classmate Brandon (Dan Byrd) walking out of the office with a bloodied nose.Later at home, Olive is with her parents and her adopted brother. Her mother Rosemary (Patricia Clarkson) and father Dill (Stanley Tucci) are very liberal and supportive of their daughter and her choices. Brandon comes over later and propositions Olive; she'll pretend to sleep with him and make him appear straight, when in reality everyone knows he's gay. She agrees and they pretend to have sex at a public party. Afterwards she bumps into an old crush Todd (Penn Badgley), whom she almost kissed years ago but instead lied about it when he said he wasn't ready.Now after apparently sleeping with two guys and the harassment starting to get to her, Olive decides to go with the flow. She begins to wear more provocative clothing and stitches a red 'A' to everything she wears. Boys begin to give her gift cards and money to say they've done sexual things with her to increase their own popularity, which only increases her rep.However, things begin to go downhill quickly. Rhiannon, partly jealous of the attention Olive is getting, joins the church group protesting her. Olive is able to reconcile with Marianne but it is destroyed when Marianne's boyfriend Micah (Cam Gigandet) gets an STD and says Olive gave it to him.Olive sees Mrs. Griffith (Lisa Kudrow) who is crying and confesses that she is the one who slept with Micah. Olive promises to take the blame to save Mrs. Griffith's job and marriage.Olive becomes disillusioned with the fact that though everyone thinks she is sleeping around, no one will take the chance to actually date her. This changes when Anson (Jake Sandvig) comes up to her and asks her out. The date goes sour when Olive sees' Rhiannon at the restaurant and remembers that she has a crush on Anson. Olive tries to recover and Anson attempts to pay her off, so she asks what they'll say happened but Anson thinks he will actually get sex and tries to force himself on her. She resists and he drives off. Todd, who works at the restaurant, sees her and offers to drive her home.Todd tells her that he doesn't believe the rumor mill and thinks she's actually great. He remembers how cool she was about not kissing him years ago and wishes she actually was his first kiss (her friend Rhiannon was and he says she was terrible). Olive is touched but says she can't be with him until she sorts out her life.Olive proceeds to go to the boys that propositioned her and tells them to fess up but most deny it, or in the case of Brandon who comes out to his parents, leave town altogether. When she goes to Mrs. Griffith to make her come clean, she refuses to and uses her authority as an adult to make it clear Olive won't be believed over her. Olive runs to Mr. Griffith and tells the truth but immediately regrets how she did it, realizing she just ruined a marriage.To get everything finally in the open, she does a song and dance number at a pep rally and pretends that she will be doing a sex show via web cam with Todd. In actuality (as the whole movie has been an extended flashback) she confesses what she has done. She also makes up with Rhiannon, apologizing for lying. When she is finishing up, Todd comes by riding a lawnmower and tells her to come out. She closes her web cam confession saying she really likes Todd and maybe she will lose her virginity to him in the future but at the end of the day it is no one's business but her own. She leaves the house to kiss him and they ride off from the neighborhood on the lawnmower (a joke Olive made earlier on in the piece where she says "Whatever happened to chivalry?

/m/0b7h_57 | The film opens with Olive Penderghast (Emma Stone) talking into a web cam about how her little white lie ballooned into an uncontrollable monster. She says she will explain her side, the true side of what occurred. She says that she was a nobody that no one noticed outside her best friend Rhiannon (Aly Michalka). Rhiannon wants to go camping with Olive but Olive lies and says she is going on a date. In reality, she just hangs around the house all weekend singing "Pocketful of Sunshine" by Natasha Bedingfield.The following Monday, pressed by Rhiannon, Olive lies about losing her virginity to a college guy. Marianne (Amanda Bynes), an overly enthusiastic Christian, overhears her telling the lie and soon it spreads like wildfire.The school has a conservative teen church group run by Marianne who decides that Olive will be their next project. The group's harassment disguised as concern comes to head at an English class run by Mr. Griffith (Thomas Haden Church). The class happens to be reading The Scarlet Letter, a novel about adultery and shame. When one of the girls from the church group makes a side comment at Olive, Olive shoots back one of her own. This gets her sent to the principal's office and Olive is given detention. It is there she sees her classmate Brandon (Dan Byrd) walking out of the office with a bloodied nose.Later at home, Olive is with her parents and her adopted brother. Her mother Rosemary (Patricia Clarkson) and father Dill (Stanley Tucci) are very liberal and supportive of their daughter and her choices. Brandon comes over later and propositions Olive; she'll pretend to sleep with him and make him appear straight, when in reality everyone knows he's gay. She agrees and they pretend to have sex at a public party. Afterwards she bumps into an old crush Todd (Penn Badgley), whom she almost kissed years ago but instead lied about it when he said he wasn't ready.Now after apparently sleeping with two guys and the harassment starting to get to her, Olive decides to go with the flow. She begins to wear more provocative clothing and stitches a red 'A' to everything she wears. Boys begin to give her gift cards and money to say they've done sexual things with her to increase their own popularity, which only increases her rep.However, things begin to go downhill quickly. Rhiannon, partly jealous of the attention Olive is getting, joins the church group protesting her. Olive is able to reconcile with Marianne but it is destroyed when Marianne's boyfriend Micah (Cam Gigandet) gets an STD and says Olive gave it to him.Olive sees Mrs. Griffith (Lisa Kudrow) who is crying and confesses that she is the one who slept with Micah. Olive promises to take the blame to save Mrs. Griffith's job and marriage.Olive becomes disillusioned with the fact that though everyone thinks she is sleeping around, no one will take the chance to actually date her. This changes when Anson (Jake Sandvig) comes up to her and asks her out. The date goes sour when Olive sees' Rhiannon at the restaurant and remembers that she has a crush on Anson. Olive tries to recover and Anson attempts to pay her off, so she asks what they'll say happened but Anson thinks he will actually get sex and tries to force himself on her. She resists and he drives off. Todd, who works at the restaurant, sees her and offers to drive her home.Todd tells her that he doesn't believe the rumor mill and thinks she's actually great. He remembers how cool she was about not kissing him years ago and wishes she actually was his first kiss (her friend Rhiannon was and he says she was terrible). Olive is touched but says she can't be with him until she sorts out her life.Olive proceeds to go to the boys that propositioned her and tells them to fess up but most deny it, or in the case of Brandon who comes out to his parents, leave town altogether. When she goes to Mrs. Griffith to make her come clean, she refuses to and uses her authority as an adult to make it clear Olive won't be believed over her. Olive runs to Mr. Griffith and tells the truth but immediately regrets how she did it, realizing she just ruined a marriage.To get everything finally in the open, she does a song and dance number at a pep rally and pretends that she will be doing a sex show via web cam with Todd. In actuality (as the whole movie has been an extended flashback) she confesses what she has done. She also makes up with Rhiannon, apologizing for lying. When she is finishing up, Todd comes by riding a lawnmower and tells her to come out. She closes her web cam confession saying she really likes Todd and maybe she will lose her virginity to him in the future but at the end of the day it is no one's business but her own. She leaves the house to kiss him and they ride off from the neighborhood on the lawnmower (a joke Olive made earlier on in the piece where she says "Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80's movies? I want John Cusack holding a boombox outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawnmower with Patrick Dempsey"). | Easy A | 4454f8be-52ac-d5db-14b3-6eb93f61bfa8 | Who does Brandon convince to pretend to have sex with him? | [

/m/0fyth4 | It is 1955, somewhere in rural England. Wealthy Victor Hazell owns a vast estate, and drives his expensive car proudly around it to survey his domain. He drives past several signs that show he has acquired much of his property recently, by buying out surrounding smallholdings. There are hundreds of prime pheasants wandering around his property, and as he drives along his two gamekeepers, Rabbetts and Springer, wish him a good morning. However, he does not acknowledge their presence, throws his cigar out the window and drives on proudly, much to their disgust.Hazell's good mood is ruined when he stops on a hillside and spots, in the distance, the garage and filling station owned by William Smith and his nine-year-old son, Danny. Hazell gets out of his car and peers at the structure through a set of field glasses, watching Danny fill the tank of a customer's car. In high bad humor, he returns to his own car and proceeds down the hill towards the filling station.In the garage, William and Danny have just finished repairing a car another customer left behind. Danny asks permission to drive it out of the garage, and William lets him do so. Hazell's car comes barreling down the hill at the same time as Danny is backing the car out of the garage, and both he and Hazell are forced to slam brakes to avoid a collision. William praises Danny for his quick thinking and Hazell, putting on a friendly tone, does the same. He then asks William if he'd be willing to sell his land - the Smiths own six acres of field and the garage, filling station, and an old caravan which serves as their home - but William tells him he already explained to the solicitor from Hazell's estate he was not interested.Hazell explains to William that his land is smack in the middle of the rest of his estate, and is preventing him from achieving his goal of having one of the biggest and best pheasant shoots in that part of England. He offers him 2,000 pounds, then 2,500, but William remains unmoved. Hazell frustratedly demands why the obviously poor Smiths refuse to sell their land, and are willing to give up a small fortune that could give Danny a better future. William calmly tells Hazell that that they are happy where they are and have no intention of selling. Hazell warns them not to get in his way, then storms out of the station.That night, in the caravan, Danny interrupts his father's nightly bedtime story to ask him about Victor Hazell. William, a former veteran, tells Danny that Hazell is a war profiteer and a crook, and that because of his power and wealth he is likely to make trouble for them. However, he cheerfully insists that he and Danny together can stand up to him, which comforts Danny. The next morning is the first day of school, so they go to bed to get up early.The next morning, William walks Danny to school. In the village they pass and greet several friends - the postman, Mr. Wheeler (the grocer), Mrs. Clipstone (the vicar's wife), and Enoch Samways (the village policeman). At school, William hands Danny a repair bill to give to Mr. Snoddy, the school's Scottish headmaster, and they part ways. Reverend Clipstone leads the students and teachers in a hymn and prayers, and Mr. Snoddy introduces a new teacher he has appointed to teach the fourth grade class, Captain Lancaster.After assembly, Danny goes to Mr. Snoddy's office to leave the letter on his desk. He thought Mr. Snoddy was not there, but discovers him quietly sneaking a nip of gin. Mr. Snoddy is a lenient and gentle man, and does not berate him. He shrugs it off, and tells him its a sort of open secret that he drinks a lot, but asks that he not go publicizing it. Danny agrees, and goes back to his classroom. Captain Lancaster gives him no chance to explain why he was late, but demands his last name and in rather military fashion publicly berates and belittles him for not only being late but trying to quietly enter the class unnoticed, as he deems that sneaking. He says he will not punish any students this first day of term, but, after embarrassing Danny, informs the entire class that from now on he will tolerate no breach of conduct or rules in his class, with punctuality, order, and strict discipline being the absolute necessity for every student.Danny returns home to find ministry inspectors on their property seeing if they are mixing fuel grades, which while a common practice is illegal. Of course, the Smiths are not doing this, and the men are forced to leave empty-handed. William tells Danny the men were obviously sent by Victor Hazell, because they weren't due for their regular inspection for some time. He also tells the men, who play innocent, that he knows it's a put-up job. He tells Danny he suspects they won't be the last. The men call Mr. Hazell and tell him of their failure, but Hazell tells them he wanted William and Danny to know it was a put-up job so they would realize his power. He then makes a call to a different ministry to call in a favor, though it is not disclosed what.That night, Danny wakes up in the dark to discover William is not in the caravan. He goes to see if he's working late in the garage, but he is not there. He searches the property in vain, then waits on the porch of the caravan for William to return. William comes back about 11 PM and is astonished to see Danny is awake, as he has never woken in the middle of the night before. He explains that he went up to Hazell's woods some miles down the road to see if he could get back at him by poaching a pheasant, which shocks Danny.William apologizes for leaving without telling Danny where he was going, and goes on to explain that when he was a boy, his father poached most of their food because they couldn't get it any other way. In fact it was how most of the poor people in the village survived, and no one made much of a fuss about it because ownership of game animals is determined by where the animal happens to be at the time as long as it is alive, so prosecution is difficult. However, the gamekeepers still took a potshot at the odd poacher now and then if they saw them, so that added a spice of danger to it, and it became considered almost a sport. William also explains that he considers the rearing and shooting of masses of tame birds just for fun "organized slaughter" and that it defies nature; this is yet another reason that he and others don't consider poaching, as it is a hunter stalking prey and quite in line with nature, a full-on crime. He tells Danny his late father (named Horace in the book but never mentioned by name in the film) was considered an expert poacher and studied it as if it were an art or science. He learned that pheasants love raisins, which was considered a great discovery at the time.In the morning, William goes on to demonstrate to Danny his father's other discovery of how to catch pheasants quietly without a keeper being alerted by noises. They own a small flock of chickens, and he uses them as an example, digging a hole in the ground and leaving a paper cone full of raisins in it. They hide and watch as a chicken eats the raisins and gets the paper cone stuck on her head. Once her eyes are covered, she does not move. Danny and William stroke her and pick her up but she stays quite still as long as the paper is over her eyes. William explains it's the same with pheasants, and lets the confused chicken go free.A car comes into the station and William assumes its business as the engine sounds rough. However, it is an inspector from the Ministry of Health and Child Welfare, Miss Hunter, who has been told that William is an unfit father and has come to investigate the complaint. William is quite cooperative and kindly offers to show her around - as she and her assistant start the inspection, he whispers to Danny to fix the engine. Danny gets out a toolkit and proceeds to take the inner workings of the car apart.William shows her the caravan, the outhouse that is their bathroom, the tin washtub they use to bathe in, and the rest of the property. While the caravan is tidy and there is nothing that is strictly against code, Miss Hunter is aghast at their primitive conditions and demands if William thinks it is right to raise a child this way. William insists that there is nothing wrong, and Miss Hunter attacks from another angle, demanding to know why their records show Danny did not enter school until he was 7 years old, for the law requires children be in school at 5. William reveals he knows the law quite well, and that it also says that if alternate tuition from a qualified instructor is available during the child's early years, the age limit is no longer in effect. He also reveals that before the war he was a full-time schoolteacher. Miss Hunter is caught off-guard, but then insists Danny would have benefited from social interaction and that William is still in the wrong.As she leaves to make her report, she discovers Danny has taken her engine apart. She is furious and threatens to prosecute, until Danny begins rattling off what all is wrong with her engine and that he can fix it if she will just wait a moment. Miss Hunter and her assistant are stunned, and go inside the caravan with William to wait. William then tells them he's sorry he ordered Danny to fix the car without permission but that he was trying to prove the point that Danny is not a truant and is in fact an extremely intelligent child and a prodigy when it comes to mechanical work. He also explains the reason he was late in sending Danny to school was that, as his wife died when Danny was four months old, it took him a while to reconcile himself to being alone without Danny there as Danny is all he had. Miss Hunter, finally convinced William is not a poor parent, returns to her repaired car and assures the Smiths they need fear no further inspections. She and her assistant leave.Danny and William get back to their original discussion as they work on an old Austin Seven mini-car left by a customer. William explains last night was the first time since Danny's mother died that he had been out poaching on his own, as he wanted to wait until Danny was old enough to be left alone for a couple hours. Danny tells him he won't mind if he goes out again, so long as he has prior warning of when he's planning to leave and come back. William promises he will do this.The head of the Ministry calls Victor Hazell to report the failure of the attempt. Hazell is frustrated, but tells his friend he'll still honor this favor that was done for him. He also refuses to give up trying to run the Smiths off their land.The next morning, Danny and William are en route to school when they spot a rabbit caught in a snare Hazell's gamekeepers had left for vermin. He and Danny release the rabbit, but the delay causes Danny to be late for school. William tells Danny to tell Captain Lancaster that he will take the blame. However, upon arrival to school, Danny is derisively told by his teacher it was "kind of him to grace them with his presence at last." Danny starts to deliver William's message but Captain Lancaster shuts him up before he gets a full sentence out and tells him no excuse would be acceptable, and punishes him to write "I will not be late for Captain Lancaster's Class" 1,000 times along with the rest of his homework. Danny returns home and tells what happened. William is disgusted by Captain Lancaster's apparent desire to make Danny the class example, and Danny reluctantly sets out to write his lines.That night, William leaves to go see if he can catch a pheasant this time, as he was unsuccessful last time. Danny is still hard at work with his lines, but he promises William he'll get to bed on time and not wait up for him. William tells Danny he'll be home by 9 and sets out.Danny wakes in the wee hours of the morning to discover William has not returned. Knowing that this means something awful has happened, he immediately dresses, gets in the Austin Seven, and drives it up the road to Hazell's woods. He passes a police car on patrol, and they turn around and give chase. However, before they catch up to him he has turned off the main road, and they drive on into the night without ever seeing him again.Danny starts into the woods to search for William, but hears Rabbetts and Springer. The two gamekeepers are grumbling about staying out all night patrolling traps Hazell has set for poachers, when he pays them so badly. They then triumphantly shout about having caught a poacher when they look in one of the traps, and hurry off to tell Hazell. Springer is hesitant to go at first, but Rabbetts insists that if the man has been caught in the trap this long he can't get out now, so they leave together. As soon as they are gone, Danny discovers that the trap is a sheer-sided pit about 12 to 14 feet deep, like a tiger trap. William is inside it, and he hid his face from the keepers but he suspects they know who he is. His ankle is broken so he has no hope of climbing out, until Danny tells him he drove the Austin and that there is a tow rope in it. He runs to fetch it.Rabbetts and Springer arrive at the house, where Hazell is holding a fancy party. He takes a gun and joins them, hurrying back through the woods to find the pit. By now, Danny has helped William out of the hole, and they are hobbling as fast as they can back to the car. By the time Hazell and the keepers arrive at the pit, they discover that William is gone. They set off in pursuit when they hear the engine of the Austin, but it is already roaring away by the time they reach the road. Rabbetts informs Hazell that he's almost certain the poacher was William Smith, and Hazell agrees with him that it must be. He promises both keepers 100 pounds apiece if they shoot William the next time he tries to poach a pheasant, because he needs him gone.The next morning, Doctor Spencer - an old friend of Williams and fellow poacher - comes to inspect his broken ankle. He is horrified by the thought of someone digging tiger traps to catch people because someone could get killed that way, and reveals he has a deep dislike of the land-grabbing Hazell as William and Danny. Sergeant Samways pedals up on his bike and informs William that Hazell has ordered him to question the Smiths because he thinks they were on his land poaching. Hazell also volunteered that William may have broken his leg while in the woods. This worries Danny and William; however, Samways surprises them by not allowing William to make any sort of statement and showing them that he is writing down in his notebook that William said he was home and broke his ankle falling down the caravan's front steps. The ambulance arrives, and Spencer and Samways help get William into it.William comes home later that evening with his leg in a cast and a cane to walk with, and Danny comes out to meet the ambulance. It is pouring down rain, so William and Doc Spencer try to hurry inside to keep themselves and Danny from getting too wet. However, Hazell and the two keepers arrive and stop them. He informs William he knows most of the village is in on this together and warns him that if he comes on his land again he will get shot. Doc Spencer tries to tell Hazell off, but Hazell shuts him up and demands William give him an answer. William coolly tells Hazell that at the moment HE is the trespasser here and that he has one minute to get off his land. Hazell is impressed in spite of himself by William's boldness and leaves, telling his keepers that he's certain William's desire for revenge will make him try again and that they had better be ready to shoot him when he does.Doc Spencer stays for tea, and he and William both agree something must be done about Hazell. William promises he'll think of something. Doc Spencer leaves William some sleeping pills for the pain, and heads off back to his own house, thanking Danny for making the tea for him.The next day during class, Danny's friend Sid Morgan thinks Danny is nodding off, and tries to get his attention by whispering his name. Lancaster catches him in the act, and demands he and Danny both come up front. He tells them they were cheating and will both be punished. Danny insists they were doing nothing of the kind, but Lancaster stubbornly says that anyone whispering to each other during class is cheating as far as he is concerned and pulls out a cane with which he plans to beat both him and Sid. He makes Danny hold out his left hand and strikes him with the cane. He is about to deliver a second blow when Headmaster Snoddy, alerted by the gasps of the other children, comes into the classroom and tells Lancaster he must see him in his office at once.In his office, Headmaster Snoddy tells an arrogant and unrepentant Captain Lancaster that corporal punishment is against the policy of the school, and that Lancaster should know this as it was part of his contract. Lancaster insists he was within his rights because it was a case of academic dishonesty. Snoddy decides to investigate for himself. He calls Sid and Danny to come to him and tells the rest of the class, who have crowded round Danny to try to comfort him, to stay back. He demands the two boys to give their word of honor, and tell him the truth. Lancaster watches this proceeding with a disdainful eye. Both Sid and Danny tell the Headmaster the truth - that they did not cheat - and he allows them to rejoin their classmates. He then informs Lancaster that if he strikes a child again he will be fired on the spot. Lancaster refuses to respond to this, and Snoddy barks at him to tell him if he understood him. Reluctantly, Lancaster agrees to not use the cane, and furiously storms back to his class.Danny returns home to find William also in a bad mood. As soon as he sees the red welt on Danny's hand and hears that Captain Lancaster accused his son of cheating, he flies into a rage and announces his intention of hobbling over to Captain Lancaster's house and beating the living daylights out of him. Danny, knowing this will only make Lancaster's enmity against him worse, begs William not to, finally saying "I'll hate you if you do it" because William is past listening to anything else. Once he has William's attention, Danny insists this isn't William's battle to fight, and William hugs him and apologizes, explaining it's his frustration at being unable to teach Hazell a lesson that will get him to leave him and the rest of the village alone that has got him in such a touchy mood. The worst part is that he has the perfect plan - poach all 700 of Hazell's pheasants the night before his annual shooting party, and keep them at the filling station until after Hazell has been embarrassed in front of the high-society people he invites every year - but he has no means of carrying it out. Danny agrees such a heist would be the perfect remedy to the problem at hand, but there seems no way it can be done.That night, Danny spots the jar of sleeping pills Doc Spencer left for William, and is struck with a brilliant idea - dope all the pheasants so they won't be able to fly up to roost after the keepers go home for the night. William consults Doc Spencer and he agrees it's a great plan, and that it would make Danny take over his grandfather's place as the champion of the world at poaching. He gets them a large supply of sleeping powders, and says he will help them to collect all the drugged pheasants and get some extra help to do so. Next, William goes to Mr. Snoddy and asks for his help in carrying out the heist. Finally, he and Danny visit Wheeler's store and ask him for raisins. Mr. Wheeler knows this means they're after pheasants, so when they buy all 30 boxes he is amazed that they would try such a thing.Back at the Caravan, Danny and William begin the laborious process of crushing the pills into powder and drugging each raisin individually. They stay up all day and late into the night, until William finally tells Danny they must get some sleep - he'll close down the garage for the day and finish the last of the raisins himself in the morning.Danny runs to school the next morning and mercifully makes it on time. However, this, coupled with the fact he was up so late the night before, serves to make him utterly exhausted, and he falls asleep during class. Sid elbows him frantically, trying to wake him before he gets in trouble, but Lancaster spots this wakes him with a clapper and tells him he must stay after class. Danny tells him William has ordered him to come straight home after school, but Lancaster sharply tells him he must obey his teacher. He then punishes Danny, after the other students have left, by having him run 20 laps round the schoolyard. However, on the second lap, Danny discovers he passes out of Lancaster's line of sight whenever he goes round one particular side of the yard and takes this opportunity to use a nearby shed to climb over the wall and flee home. Lancaster, realizing after a few moments Danny has disappeared, runs in pursuit but is neither agile nor steady enough to climb over the wall and ends up tearing his trousers on a nail sticking out of the shed. Mr. Snoddy comes outside on his way home to see Lancaster, with the seat of his pants ripped, hanging onto the wall with both hands for dear life. Snoddy is clearly amused by the sight; humiliated, Lancaster screams at Snoddy that the school is a disgusting shambles and that he is resigning, to which Mr. Snoddy simply replies "Good!" and leaves Lancaster to fall off the wall.That night, just before sundown, Danny and William sneak through the woods, scattering the drugged raisins about. All goes well until Rabbetts and Springer appear. The two Smiths hide beneath some shrubbery to keep from being spotted. However, Rabbetts notices the pheasants are congregated about something and starts forward to investigate. Fearing they'll spot the raisins, William snaps a twig. The two keepers look about for the source of the noise but to no avail. In frustration, Rabbetts says he's had enough and is off home. Springer reminds him of the bounty Hazell offered them for shooting William, but Rabbetts scoffs and says William would never hobble about the woods with his leg in plaster and that he has no intention of staying up all night on the day before the big shoot, on the miserable wages Hazell pays them. Springer agrees this makes sense and they leave. Relieved, William and Danny continue to scatter the raisins.As darkness falls, the pheasants fly up into the trees to roost. However, just as Danny planned, they are too drugged to manage this and eventually flop back to the ground unconscious. William and Danny dance and celebrate, and when Doc Spencer shows up with Mr. Snoddy and the postman in tow, they have the pheasants all gathered together waiting for them. The five of them gather up the sleeping birds in sacks as gently as they can and carry them back to the workshop, laying them out on the floor to sleep off the drug. Doc Spencer wonders what they're going to do when they wake, but Danny knows exactly what he wants to do - set them free to live as wild birds. Danny and William, with Snoddy and Spencer's help, then send a fire balloon up into the sky as a prearranged signal that would let the rest of the village know they succeeded. The Clipstones, Mr. Wheeler, Sergeant Samways and all the rest of the villagers celebrate as they see the balloon fly by.The next morning, all the important people arrive at Hazell's estate for the shoot. Before Hazell arrives, they laugh about his attempts to fit in with their crowd and how he does everything wrong. But they are there because of the birds so they try to be polite when Hazell himself shows up on the scene. Springer gets a group of beaters together to drive the birds out of the woods, and Rabbetts starts setting up stands for the shooters. Hazell calls one of the guests, Sir Charles Tallon, aside. It is revealed that Tallon is a developer, and that the whole buying-land-for-the-annual-shooting-party thing is just a ruse disguising Hazell's master plan. His real intention, once he has all the land, is to develop a new township right in the villages backyard, destroying the farmland. This would have been opposed by the villagers, which is why he has kept it on the down-low. Tallon sees, on the maps and blueprints, the Smith's plot of land and says without it the development can't go forward. Hazell lies and tells him he's got the property cheap because he didn't tell William how much it was really worth to him. Tallon doesn't like these dealings, but business is business so he reluctantly makes a deal that his company will develop Hazell's new town.Everyone goes to the fields outside the woods for the first drive. Several villagers secretly watch as the beaters go crazy trying to drive pheasants that aren't there out of the woods, including Danny, William, and Doc Spencer. Hazell and his guests demand of the two gamekeepers where the birds are, but they don't know. The guests start to openly mock Hazell, and a furious Hazell orders Rabbetts to find the birds or lose what little pay he's getting.Rabbetts and Springer set off in their jeep to drive around Hazell's land, with Springer at the wheel and Rabbetts standing up looking around for pheasants. Meanwhile, Doc Spencer drives William and Danny back to the filling station, all of them still laughing over the sight they just witnessed. However, when they arrive they find the pheasants are waking up sooner than expected and are starting to run around confused, not understanding how they got in the unfamiliar place. Doc Spencer, Danny and William desperately try to keep them on the ground because if they fly up they'll be spotted, but it's no use. Several of them are seen by Rabbetts through his field glasses, and he alerts Hazell to where they are coming from.Hazell tears through the village in his car, with his gamekeepers' jeep and the cars of all the rest of his shooting party following out of curiosity as to what he's going to do. They knock Sergeant Samways off his bike in passing, and he pursues them, furiously. Several other people from the village run after them. Upon arriving at the filling station, Hazell smugly tells William he's caught him this time and that he will force him to sell his land. Samways appears and Hazell demands he arrest William for stealing the birds. However, Samways is more interested in serving a ticket to Hazell for unsafe driving, and when Hazell tries to insist, Samways says as he didn't see William in the act, the birds are on his land and that they are technically his for the moment.Tallon, hearing this, demands of William whether he still owns his property. William tells him this is the case and that he does not and never did have any intention of selling it. Tallon tells Hazell the deal is off and then informs the rest of the villagers standing round of what Hazell was planning to do, much to their horror. Humiliated and defeated, Hazell curses William and the villagers and leaves in disgrace, with Rabbetts and Springer in tow.Tallon remarks that William seems to have saved the day by refusing to give in to Hazell. William corrects him and tells him that Danny, who drove a car and saved him from the pit and instigated the whole proceeding, is the real hero here. The villagers give Danny three cheers as William triumphantly carries him on his shoulders back to the filling station and the pheasants fly free. | Danny, the Champion of the World | d0bd3187-7fd6-7ad2-4e04-b04dc493cc6d | Was Danny able to get William out of the hole? | [

/m/0fyth4 | It is 1955, somewhere in rural England. Wealthy Victor Hazell owns a vast estate, and drives his expensive car proudly around it to survey his domain. He drives past several signs that show he has acquired much of his property recently, by buying out surrounding smallholdings. There are hundreds of prime pheasants wandering around his property, and as he drives along his two gamekeepers, Rabbetts and Springer, wish him a good morning. However, he does not acknowledge their presence, throws his cigar out the window and drives on proudly, much to their disgust.Hazell's good mood is ruined when he stops on a hillside and spots, in the distance, the garage and filling station owned by William Smith and his nine-year-old son, Danny. Hazell gets out of his car and peers at the structure through a set of field glasses, watching Danny fill the tank of a customer's car. In high bad humor, he returns to his own car and proceeds down the hill towards the filling station.In the garage, William and Danny have just finished repairing a car another customer left behind. Danny asks permission to drive it out of the garage, and William lets him do so. Hazell's car comes barreling down the hill at the same time as Danny is backing the car out of the garage, and both he and Hazell are forced to slam brakes to avoid a collision. William praises Danny for his quick thinking and Hazell, putting on a friendly tone, does the same. He then asks William if he'd be willing to sell his land - the Smiths own six acres of field and the garage, filling station, and an old caravan which serves as their home - but William tells him he already explained to the solicitor from Hazell's estate he was not interested.Hazell explains to William that his land is smack in the middle of the rest of his estate, and is preventing him from achieving his goal of having one of the biggest and best pheasant shoots in that part of England. He offers him 2,000 pounds, then 2,500, but William remains unmoved. Hazell frustratedly demands why the obviously poor Smiths refuse to sell their land, and are willing to give up a small fortune that could give Danny a better future. William calmly tells Hazell that that they are happy where they are and have no intention of selling. Hazell warns them not to get in his way, then storms out of the station.That night, in the caravan, Danny interrupts his father's nightly bedtime story to ask him about Victor Hazell. William, a former veteran, tells Danny that Hazell is a war profiteer and a crook, and that because of his power and wealth he is likely to make trouble for them. However, he cheerfully insists that he and Danny together can stand up to him, which comforts Danny. The next morning is the first day of school, so they go to bed to get up early.The next morning, William walks Danny to school. In the village they pass and greet several friends - the postman, Mr. Wheeler (the grocer), Mrs. Clipstone (the vicar's wife), and Enoch Samways (the village policeman). At school, William hands Danny a repair bill to give to Mr. Snoddy, the school's Scottish headmaster, and they part ways. Reverend Clipstone leads the students and teachers in a hymn and prayers, and Mr. Snoddy introduces a new teacher he has appointed to teach the fourth grade class, Captain Lancaster.After assembly, Danny goes to Mr. Snoddy's office to leave the letter on his desk. He thought Mr. Snoddy was not there, but discovers him quietly sneaking a nip of gin. Mr. Snoddy is a lenient and gentle man, and does not berate him. He shrugs it off, and tells him its a sort of open secret that he drinks a lot, but asks that he not go publicizing it. Danny agrees, and goes back to his classroom. Captain Lancaster gives him no chance to explain why he was late, but demands his last name and in rather military fashion publicly berates and belittles him for not only being late but trying to quietly enter the class unnoticed, as he deems that sneaking. He says he will not punish any students this first day of term, but, after embarrassing Danny, informs the entire class that from now on he will tolerate no breach of conduct or rules in his class, with punctuality, order, and strict discipline being the absolute necessity for every student.Danny returns home to find ministry inspectors on their property seeing if they are mixing fuel grades, which while a common practice is illegal. Of course, the Smiths are not doing this, and the men are forced to leave empty-handed. William tells Danny the men were obviously sent by Victor Hazell, because they weren't due for their regular inspection for some time. He also tells the men, who play innocent, that he knows it's a put-up job. He tells Danny he suspects they won't be the last. The men call Mr. Hazell and tell him of their failure, but Hazell tells them he wanted William and Danny to know it was a put-up job so they would realize his power. He then makes a call to a different ministry to call in a favor, though it is not disclosed what.That night, Danny wakes up in the dark to discover William is not in the caravan. He goes to see if he's working late in the garage, but he is not there. He searches the property in vain, then waits on the porch of the caravan for William to return. William comes back about 11 PM and is astonished to see Danny is awake, as he has never woken in the middle of the night before. He explains that he went up to Hazell's woods some miles down the road to see if he could get back at him by poaching a pheasant, which shocks Danny.William apologizes for leaving without telling Danny where he was going, and goes on to explain that when he was a boy, his father poached most of their food because they couldn't get it any other way. In fact it was how most of the poor people in the village survived, and no one made much of a fuss about it because ownership of game animals is determined by where the animal happens to be at the time as long as it is alive, so prosecution is difficult. However, the gamekeepers still took a potshot at the odd poacher now and then if they saw them, so that added a spice of danger to it, and it became considered almost a sport. William also explains that he considers the rearing and shooting of masses of tame birds just for fun "organized slaughter" and that it defies nature; this is yet another reason that he and others don't consider poaching, as it is a hunter stalking prey and quite in line with nature, a full-on crime. He tells Danny his late father (named Horace in the book but never mentioned by name in the film) was considered an expert poacher and studied it as if it were an art or science. He learned that pheasants love raisins, which was considered a great discovery at the time.In the morning, William goes on to demonstrate to Danny his father's other discovery of how to catch pheasants quietly without a keeper being alerted by noises.

They hide and watch as a chicken eats the raisins and gets the paper cone stuck on her head. Once her eyes are covered, she does not move. Danny and William stroke her and pick her up but she stays quite still as long as the paper is over her eyes. William explains it's the same with pheasants, and lets the confused chicken go free.A car comes into the station and William assumes its business as the engine sounds rough. However, it is an inspector from the Ministry of Health and Child Welfare, Miss Hunter, who has been told that William is an unfit father and has come to investigate the complaint. William is quite cooperative and kindly offers to show her around - as she and her assistant start the inspection, he whispers to Danny to fix the engine. Danny gets out a toolkit and proceeds to take the inner workings of the car apart.William shows her the caravan, the outhouse that is their bathroom, the tin washtub they use to bathe in, and the rest of the property.

William insists that there is nothing wrong, and Miss Hunter attacks from another angle, demanding to know why their records show Danny did not enter school until he was 7 years old, for the law requires children be in school at 5. William reveals he knows the law quite well, and that it also says that if alternate tuition from a qualified instructor is available during the child's early years, the age limit is no longer in effect. He also reveals that before the war he was a full-time schoolteacher. Miss Hunter is caught off-guard, but then insists Danny would have benefited from social interaction and that William is still in the wrong.As she leaves to make her report, she discovers Danny has taken her engine apart.

Danny returns home and tells what happened. William is disgusted by Captain Lancaster's apparent desire to make Danny the class example, and Danny reluctantly sets out to write his lines.That night, William leaves to go see if he can catch a pheasant this time, as he was unsuccessful last time. Danny is still hard at work with his lines, but he promises William he'll get to bed on time and not wait up for him. William tells Danny he'll be home by 9 and sets out.Danny wakes in the wee hours of the morning to discover William has not returned. Knowing that this means something awful has happened, he immediately dresses, gets in the Austin Seven, and drives it up the road to Hazell's woods. He passes a police car on patrol, and they turn around and give chase. However, before they catch up to him he has turned off the main road, and they drive on into the night without ever seeing him again.Danny starts into the woods to search for William, but hears Rabbetts and Springer. The two gamekeepers are grumbling about staying out all night patrolling traps Hazell has set for poachers, when he pays them so badly. They then triumphantly shout about having caught a poacher when they look in one of the traps, and hurry off to tell Hazell. Springer is hesitant to go at first, but Rabbetts insists that if the man has been caught in the trap this long he can't get out now, so they leave together. As soon as they are gone, Danny discovers that the trap is a sheer-sided pit about 12 to 14 feet deep, like a tiger trap. William is inside it, and he hid his face from the keepers but he suspects they know who he is. His ankle is broken so he has no hope of climbing out, until Danny tells him he drove the Austin and that there is a tow rope in it. He runs to fetch it.Rabbetts and Springer arrive at the house, where Hazell is holding a fancy party. He takes a gun and joins them, hurrying back through the woods to find the pit. By now, Danny has helped William out of the hole, and they are hobbling as fast as they can back to the car. By the time Hazell and the keepers arrive at the pit, they discover that William is gone. They set off in pursuit when they hear the engine of the Austin, but it is already roaring away by the time they reach the road. Rabbetts informs Hazell that he's almost certain the poacher was William Smith, and Hazell agrees with him that it must be. He promises both keepers 100 pounds apiece if they shoot William the next time he tries to poach a pheasant, because he needs him gone.The next morning, Doctor Spencer - an old friend of Williams and fellow poacher - comes to inspect his broken ankle. He is horrified by the thought of someone digging tiger traps to catch people because someone could get killed that way, and reveals he has a deep dislike of the land-grabbing Hazell as William and Danny. Sergeant Samways pedals up on his bike and informs William that Hazell has ordered him to question the Smiths because he thinks they were on his land poaching. Hazell also volunteered that William may have broken his leg while in the woods. This worries Danny and William; however, Samways surprises them by not allowing William to make any sort of statement and showing them that he is writing down in his notebook that William said he was home and broke his ankle falling down the caravan's front steps. The ambulance arrives, and Spencer and Samways help get William into it.William comes home later that evening with his leg in a cast and a cane to walk with, and Danny comes out to meet the ambulance. It is pouring down rain, so William and Doc Spencer try to hurry inside to keep themselves and Danny from getting too wet. However, Hazell and the two keepers arrive and stop them. He informs William he knows most of the village is in on this together and warns him that if he comes on his land again he will get shot. Doc Spencer tries to tell Hazell off, but Hazell shuts him up and demands William give him an answer. William coolly tells Hazell that at the moment HE is the trespasser here and that he has one minute to get off his land. Hazell is impressed in spite of himself by William's boldness and leaves, telling his keepers that he's certain William's desire for revenge will make him try again and that they had better be ready to shoot him when he does.Doc Spencer stays for tea, and he and William both agree something must be done about Hazell. William promises he'll think of something. Doc Spencer leaves William some sleeping pills for the pain, and heads off back to his own house, thanking Danny for making the tea for him.The next day during class, Danny's friend Sid Morgan thinks Danny is nodding off, and tries to get his attention by whispering his name. Lancaster catches him in the act, and demands he and Danny both come up front. He tells them they were cheating and will both be punished. Danny insists they were doing nothing of the kind, but Lancaster stubbornly says that anyone whispering to each other during class is cheating as far as he is concerned and pulls out a cane with which he plans to beat both him and Sid. He makes Danny hold out his left hand and strikes him with the cane. He is about to deliver a second blow when Headmaster Snoddy, alerted by the gasps of the other children, comes into the classroom and tells Lancaster he must see him in his office at once.In his office, Headmaster Snoddy tells an arrogant and unrepentant Captain Lancaster that corporal punishment is against the policy of the school, and that Lancaster should know this as it was part of his contract. Lancaster insists he was within his rights because it was a case of academic dishonesty. Snoddy decides to investigate for himself. He calls Sid and Danny to come to him and tells the rest of the class, who have crowded round Danny to try to comfort him, to stay back. He demands the two boys to give their word of honor, and tell him the truth. Lancaster watches this proceeding with a disdainful eye. Both Sid and Danny tell the Headmaster the truth - that they did not cheat - and he allows them to rejoin their classmates. He then informs Lancaster that if he strikes a child again he will be fired on the spot. Lancaster refuses to respond to this, and Snoddy barks at him to tell him if he understood him. Reluctantly, Lancaster agrees to not use the cane, and furiously storms back to his class.Danny returns home to find William also in a bad mood. As soon as he sees the red welt on Danny's hand and hears that Captain Lancaster accused his son of cheating, he flies into a rage and announces his intention of hobbling over to Captain Lancaster's house and beating the living daylights out of him. Danny, knowing this will only make Lancaster's enmity against him worse, begs William not to, finally saying "I'll hate you if you do it" because William is past listening to anything else. Once he has William's attention, Danny insists this isn't William's battle to fight, and William hugs him and apologizes, explaining it's his frustration at being unable to teach Hazell a lesson that will get him to leave him and the rest of the village alone that has got him in such a touchy mood. The worst part is that he has the perfect plan - poach all 700 of Hazell's pheasants the night before his annual shooting party, and keep them at the filling station until after Hazell has been embarrassed in front of the high-society people he invites every year - but he has no means of carrying it out. Danny agrees such a heist would be the perfect remedy to the problem at hand, but there seems no way it can be done.That night, Danny spots the jar of sleeping pills Doc Spencer left for William, and is struck with a brilliant idea - dope all the pheasants so they won't be able to fly up to roost after the keepers go home for the night. William consults Doc Spencer and he agrees it's a great plan, and that it would make Danny take over his grandfather's place as the champion of the world at poaching. He gets them a large supply of sleeping powders, and says he will help them to collect all the drugged pheasants and get some extra help to do so. Next, William goes to Mr. Snoddy and asks for his help in carrying out the heist. Finally, he and Danny visit Wheeler's store and ask him for raisins. Mr. Wheeler knows this means they're after pheasants, so when they buy all 30 boxes he is amazed that they would try such a thing.Back at the Caravan, Danny and William begin the laborious process of crushing the pills into powder and drugging each raisin individually. They stay up all day and late into the night, until William finally tells Danny they must get some sleep - he'll close down the garage for the day and finish the last of the raisins himself in the morning.Danny runs to school the next morning and mercifully makes it on time. However, this, coupled with the fact he was up so late the night before, serves to make him utterly exhausted, and he falls asleep during class. Sid elbows him frantically, trying to wake him before he gets in trouble, but Lancaster spots this wakes him with a clapper and tells him he must stay after class. Danny tells him William has ordered him to come straight home after school, but Lancaster sharply tells him he must obey his teacher. He then punishes Danny, after the other students have left, by having him run 20 laps round the schoolyard. However, on the second lap, Danny discovers he passes out of Lancaster's line of sight whenever he goes round one particular side of the yard and takes this opportunity to use a nearby shed to climb over the wall and flee home. Lancaster, realizing after a few moments Danny has disappeared, runs in pursuit but is neither agile nor steady enough to climb over the wall and ends up tearing his trousers on a nail sticking out of the shed. Mr. Snoddy comes outside on his way home to see Lancaster, with the seat of his pants ripped, hanging onto the wall with both hands for dear life. Snoddy is clearly amused by the sight; humiliated, Lancaster screams at Snoddy that the school is a disgusting shambles and that he is resigning, to which Mr. Snoddy simply replies "Good!" and leaves Lancaster to fall off the wall.That night, just before sundown, Danny and William sneak through the woods, scattering the drugged raisins about. All goes well until Rabbetts and Springer appear. The two Smiths hide beneath some shrubbery to keep from being spotted. However, Rabbetts notices the pheasants are congregated about something and starts forward to investigate. Fearing they'll spot the raisins, William snaps a twig. The two keepers look about for the source of the noise but to no avail. In frustration, Rabbetts says he's had enough and is off home. Springer reminds him of the bounty Hazell offered them for shooting William, but Rabbetts scoffs and says William would never hobble about the woods with his leg in plaster and that he has no intention of staying up all night on the day before the big shoot, on the miserable wages Hazell pays them. Springer agrees this makes sense and they leave. Relieved, William and Danny continue to scatter the raisins.As darkness falls, the pheasants fly up into the trees to roost. However, just as Danny planned, they are too drugged to manage this and eventually flop back to the ground unconscious. William and Danny dance and celebrate, and when Doc Spencer shows up with Mr. Snoddy and the postman in tow, they have the pheasants all gathered together waiting for them. The five of them gather up the sleeping birds in sacks as gently as they can and carry them back to the workshop, laying them out on the floor to sleep off the drug. Doc Spencer wonders what they're going to do when they wake, but Danny knows exactly what he wants to do - set them free to live as wild birds. Danny and William, with Snoddy and Spencer's help, then send a fire balloon up into the sky as a prearranged signal that would let the rest of the village know they succeeded. The Clipstones, Mr. Wheeler, Sergeant Samways and all the rest of the villagers celebrate as they see the balloon fly by.The next morning, all the important people arrive at Hazell's estate for the shoot. Before Hazell arrives, they laugh about his attempts to fit in with their crowd and how he does everything wrong. But they are there because of the birds so they try to be polite when Hazell himself shows up on the scene. Springer gets a group of beaters together to drive the birds out of the woods, and Rabbetts starts setting up stands for the shooters. Hazell calls one of the guests, Sir Charles Tallon, aside. It is revealed that Tallon is a developer, and that the whole buying-land-for-the-annual-shooting-party thing is just a ruse disguising Hazell's master plan. His real intention, once he has all the land, is to develop a new township right in the villages backyard, destroying the farmland. This would have been opposed by the villagers, which is why he has kept it on the down-low. Tallon sees, on the maps and blueprints, the Smith's plot of land and says without it the development can't go forward. Hazell lies and tells him he's got the property cheap because he didn't tell William how much it was really worth to him. Tallon doesn't like these dealings, but business is business so he reluctantly makes a deal that his company will develop Hazell's new town.Everyone goes to the fields outside the woods for the first drive. Several villagers secretly watch as the beaters go crazy trying to drive pheasants that aren't there out of the woods, including Danny, William, and Doc Spencer. Hazell and his guests demand of the two gamekeepers where the birds are, but they don't know. The guests start to openly mock Hazell, and a furious Hazell orders Rabbetts to find the birds or lose what little pay he's getting.Rabbetts and Springer set off in their jeep to drive around Hazell's land, with Springer at the wheel and Rabbetts standing up looking around for pheasants. Meanwhile, Doc Spencer drives William and Danny back to the filling station, all of them still laughing over the sight they just witnessed. However, when they arrive they find the pheasants are waking up sooner than expected and are starting to run around confused, not understanding how they got in the unfamiliar place. Doc Spencer, Danny and William desperately try to keep them on the ground because if they fly up they'll be spotted, but it's no use. Several of them are seen by Rabbetts through his field glasses, and he alerts Hazell to where they are coming from.Hazell tears through the village in his car, with his gamekeepers' jeep and the cars of all the rest of his shooting party following out of curiosity as to what he's going to do. They knock Sergeant Samways off his bike in passing, and he pursues them, furiously. Several other people from the village run after them. Upon arriving at the filling station, Hazell smugly tells William he's caught him this time and that he will force him to sell his land. Samways appears and Hazell demands he arrest William for stealing the birds. However, Samways is more interested in serving a ticket to Hazell for unsafe driving, and when Hazell tries to insist, Samways says as he didn't see William in the act, the birds are on his land and that they are technically his for the moment.Tallon, hearing this, demands of William whether he still owns his property. William tells him this is the case and that he does not and never did have any intention of selling it. Tallon tells Hazell the deal is off and then informs the rest of the villagers standing round of what Hazell was planning to do, much to their horror. Humiliated and defeated, Hazell curses William and the villagers and leaves in disgrace, with Rabbetts and Springer in tow.Tallon remarks that William seems to have saved the day by refusing to give in to Hazell. William corrects him and tells him that Danny, who drove a car and saved him from the pit and instigated the whole proceeding, is the real hero here. The villagers give Danny three cheers as William triumphantly carries him on his shoulders back to the filling station and the pheasants fly free. | Danny, the Champion of the World | 86279cc6-eff4-e744-f840-66bd715992f3 | How is Captain Lancaster? | [

/m/0fyth4 | It is 1955, somewhere in rural England. Wealthy Victor Hazell owns a vast estate, and drives his expensive car proudly around it to survey his domain. He drives past several signs that show he has acquired much of his property recently, by buying out surrounding smallholdings. There are hundreds of prime pheasants wandering around his property, and as he drives along his two gamekeepers, Rabbetts and Springer, wish him a good morning. However, he does not acknowledge their presence, throws his cigar out the window and drives on proudly, much to their disgust.Hazell's good mood is ruined when he stops on a hillside and spots, in the distance, the garage and filling station owned by William Smith and his nine-year-old son, Danny. Hazell gets out of his car and peers at the structure through a set of field glasses, watching Danny fill the tank of a customer's car. In high bad humor, he returns to his own car and proceeds down the hill towards the filling station.In the garage, William and Danny have just finished repairing a car another customer left behind. Danny asks permission to drive it out of the garage, and William lets him do so. Hazell's car comes barreling down the hill at the same time as Danny is backing the car out of the garage, and both he and Hazell are forced to slam brakes to avoid a collision. William praises Danny for his quick thinking and Hazell, putting on a friendly tone, does the same. He then asks William if he'd be willing to sell his land - the Smiths own six acres of field and the garage, filling station, and an old caravan which serves as their home - but William tells him he already explained to the solicitor from Hazell's estate he was not interested.Hazell explains to William that his land is smack in the middle of the rest of his estate, and is preventing him from achieving his goal of having one of the biggest and best pheasant shoots in that part of England. He offers him 2,000 pounds, then 2,500, but William remains unmoved. Hazell frustratedly demands why the obviously poor Smiths refuse to sell their land, and are willing to give up a small fortune that could give Danny a better future. William calmly tells Hazell that that they are happy where they are and have no intention of selling. Hazell warns them not to get in his way, then storms out of the station.That night, in the caravan, Danny interrupts his father's nightly bedtime story to ask him about Victor Hazell. William, a former veteran, tells Danny that Hazell is a war profiteer and a crook, and that because of his power and wealth he is likely to make trouble for them. However, he cheerfully insists that he and Danny together can stand up to him, which comforts Danny. The next morning is the first day of school, so they go to bed to get up early.The next morning, William walks Danny to school. In the village they pass and greet several friends - the postman, Mr. Wheeler (the grocer), Mrs. Clipstone (the vicar's wife), and Enoch Samways (the village policeman). At school, William hands Danny a repair bill to give to Mr. Snoddy, the school's Scottish headmaster, and they part ways. Reverend Clipstone leads the students and teachers in a hymn and prayers, and Mr. Snoddy introduces a new teacher he has appointed to teach the fourth grade class, Captain Lancaster.After assembly, Danny goes to Mr. Snoddy's office to leave the letter on his desk. He thought Mr. Snoddy was not there, but discovers him quietly sneaking a nip of gin. Mr. Snoddy is a lenient and gentle man, and does not berate him. He shrugs it off, and tells him its a sort of open secret that he drinks a lot, but asks that he not go publicizing it. Danny agrees, and goes back to his classroom. Captain Lancaster gives him no chance to explain why he was late, but demands his last name and in rather military fashion publicly berates and belittles him for not only being late but trying to quietly enter the class unnoticed, as he deems that sneaking. He says he will not punish any students this first day of term, but, after embarrassing Danny, informs the entire class that from now on he will tolerate no breach of conduct or rules in his class, with punctuality, order, and strict discipline being the absolute necessity for every student.Danny returns home to find ministry inspectors on their property seeing if they are mixing fuel grades, which while a common practice is illegal. Of course, the Smiths are not doing this, and the men are forced to leave empty-handed. William tells Danny the men were obviously sent by Victor Hazell, because they weren't due for their regular inspection for some time. He also tells the men, who play innocent, that he knows it's a put-up job. He tells Danny he suspects they won't be the last. The men call Mr. Hazell and tell him of their failure, but Hazell tells them he wanted William and Danny to know it was a put-up job so they would realize his power. He then makes a call to a different ministry to call in a favor, though it is not disclosed what.That night, Danny wakes up in the dark to discover William is not in the caravan. He goes to see if he's working late in the garage, but he is not there. He searches the property in vain, then waits on the porch of the caravan for William to return. William comes back about 11 PM and is astonished to see Danny is awake, as he has never woken in the middle of the night before. He explains that he went up to Hazell's woods some miles down the road to see if he could get back at him by poaching a pheasant, which shocks Danny.William apologizes for leaving without telling Danny where he was going, and goes on to explain that when he was a boy, his father poached most of their food because they couldn't get it any other way. In fact it was how most of the poor people in the village survived, and no one made much of a fuss about it because ownership of game animals is determined by where the animal happens to be at the time as long as it is alive, so prosecution is difficult. However, the gamekeepers still took a potshot at the odd poacher now and then if they saw them, so that added a spice of danger to it, and it became considered almost a sport. William also explains that he considers the rearing and shooting of masses of tame birds just for fun "organized slaughter" and that it defies nature; this is yet another reason that he and others don't consider poaching, as it is a hunter stalking prey and quite in line with nature, a full-on crime. He tells Danny his late father (named Horace in the book but never mentioned by name in the film) was considered an expert poacher and studied it as if it were an art or science. He learned that pheasants love raisins, which was considered a great discovery at the time.In the morning, William goes on to demonstrate to Danny his father's other discovery of how to catch pheasants quietly without a keeper being alerted by noises. They own a small flock of chickens, and he uses them as an example, digging a hole in the ground and leaving a paper cone full of raisins in it. They hide and watch as a chicken eats the raisins and gets the paper cone stuck on her head. Once her eyes are covered, she does not move. Danny and William stroke her and pick her up but she stays quite still as long as the paper is over her eyes. William explains it's the same with pheasants, and lets the confused chicken go free.A car comes into the station and William assumes its business as the engine sounds rough. However, it is an inspector from the Ministry of Health and Child Welfare, Miss Hunter, who has been told that William is an unfit father and has come to investigate the complaint. William is quite cooperative and kindly offers to show her around - as she and her assistant start the inspection, he whispers to Danny to fix the engine. Danny gets out a toolkit and proceeds to take the inner workings of the car apart.William shows her the caravan, the outhouse that is their bathroom, the tin washtub they use to bathe in, and the rest of the property. While the caravan is tidy and there is nothing that is strictly against code, Miss Hunter is aghast at their primitive conditions and demands if William thinks it is right to raise a child this way. William insists that there is nothing wrong, and Miss Hunter attacks from another angle, demanding to know why their records show Danny did not enter school until he was 7 years old, for the law requires children be in school at 5. William reveals he knows the law quite well, and that it also says that if alternate tuition from a qualified instructor is available during the child's early years, the age limit is no longer in effect. He also reveals that before the war he was a full-time schoolteacher. Miss Hunter is caught off-guard, but then insists Danny would have benefited from social interaction and that William is still in the wrong.As she leaves to make her report, she discovers Danny has taken her engine apart. She is furious and threatens to prosecute, until Danny begins rattling off what all is wrong with her engine and that he can fix it if she will just wait a moment. Miss Hunter and her assistant are stunned, and go inside the caravan with William to wait. William then tells them he's sorry he ordered Danny to fix the car without permission but that he was trying to prove the point that Danny is not a truant and is in fact an extremely intelligent child and a prodigy when it comes to mechanical work. He also explains the reason he was late in sending Danny to school was that, as his wife died when Danny was four months old, it took him a while to reconcile himself to being alone without Danny there as Danny is all he had. Miss Hunter, finally convinced William is not a poor parent, returns to her repaired car and assures the Smiths they need fear no further inspections. She and her assistant leave.Danny and William get back to their original discussion as they work on an old Austin Seven mini-car left by a customer. William explains last night was the first time since Danny's mother died that he had been out poaching on his own, as he wanted to wait until Danny was old enough to be left alone for a couple hours. Danny tells him he won't mind if he goes out again, so long as he has prior warning of when he's planning to leave and come back. William promises he will do this.The head of the Ministry calls Victor Hazell to report the failure of the attempt. Hazell is frustrated, but tells his friend he'll still honor this favor that was done for him. He also refuses to give up trying to run the Smiths off their land.The next morning, Danny and William are en route to school when they spot a rabbit caught in a snare Hazell's gamekeepers had left for vermin. He and Danny release the rabbit, but the delay causes Danny to be late for school. William tells Danny to tell Captain Lancaster that he will take the blame. However, upon arrival to school, Danny is derisively told by his teacher it was "kind of him to grace them with his presence at last." Danny starts to deliver William's message but Captain Lancaster shuts him up before he gets a full sentence out and tells him no excuse would be acceptable, and punishes him to write "I will not be late for Captain Lancaster's Class" 1,000 times along with the rest of his homework. Danny returns home and tells what happened. William is disgusted by Captain Lancaster's apparent desire to make Danny the class example, and Danny reluctantly sets out to write his lines.That night, William leaves to go see if he can catch a pheasant this time, as he was unsuccessful last time. Danny is still hard at work with his lines, but he promises William he'll get to bed on time and not wait up for him. William tells Danny he'll be home by 9 and sets out.Danny wakes in the wee hours of the morning to discover William has not returned. Knowing that this means something awful has happened, he immediately dresses, gets in the Austin Seven, and drives it up the road to Hazell's woods. He passes a police car on patrol, and they turn around and give chase. However, before they catch up to him he has turned off the main road, and they drive on into the night without ever seeing him again.Danny starts into the woods to search for William, but hears Rabbetts and Springer.

Springer is hesitant to go at first, but Rabbetts insists that if the man has been caught in the trap this long he can't get out now, so they leave together. As soon as they are gone, Danny discovers that the trap is a sheer-sided pit about 12 to 14 feet deep, like a tiger trap. William is inside it, and he hid his face from the keepers but he suspects they know who he is. His ankle is broken so he has no hope of climbing out, until Danny tells him he drove the Austin and that there is a tow rope in it. He runs to fetch it.Rabbetts and Springer arrive at the house, where Hazell is holding a fancy party. He takes a gun and joins them, hurrying back through the woods to find the pit. By now, Danny has helped William out of the hole, and they are hobbling as fast as they can back to the car. By the time Hazell and the keepers arrive at the pit, they discover that William is gone. They set off in pursuit when they hear the engine of the Austin, but it is already roaring away by the time they reach the road. Rabbetts informs Hazell that he's almost certain the poacher was William Smith, and Hazell agrees with him that it must be. He promises both keepers 100 pounds apiece if they shoot William the next time he tries to poach a pheasant, because he needs him gone.The next morning, Doctor Spencer - an old friend of Williams and fellow poacher - comes to inspect his broken ankle.

Sergeant Samways pedals up on his bike and informs William that Hazell has ordered him to question the Smiths because he thinks they were on his land poaching. Hazell also volunteered that William may have broken his leg while in the woods. This worries Danny and William; however, Samways surprises them by not allowing William to make any sort of statement and showing them that he is writing down in his notebook that William said he was home and broke his ankle falling down the caravan's front steps. The ambulance arrives, and Spencer and Samways help get William into it.William comes home later that evening with his leg in a cast and a cane to walk with, and Danny comes out to meet the ambulance. It is pouring down rain, so William and Doc Spencer try to hurry inside to keep themselves and Danny from getting too wet. However, Hazell and the two keepers arrive and stop them. He informs William he knows most of the village is in on this together and warns him that if he comes on his land again he will get shot. Doc Spencer tries to tell Hazell off, but Hazell shuts him up and demands William give him an answer. William coolly tells Hazell that at the moment HE is the trespasser here and that he has one minute to get off his land. Hazell is impressed in spite of himself by William's boldness and leaves, telling his keepers that he's certain William's desire for revenge will make him try again and that they had better be ready to shoot him when he does.Doc Spencer stays for tea, and he and William both agree something must be done about Hazell. William promises he'll think of something. Doc Spencer leaves William some sleeping pills for the pain, and heads off back to his own house, thanking Danny for making the tea for him.The next day during class, Danny's friend Sid Morgan thinks Danny is nodding off, and tries to get his attention by whispering his name. Lancaster catches him in the act, and demands he and Danny both come up front. He tells them they were cheating and will both be punished. Danny insists they were doing nothing of the kind, but Lancaster stubbornly says that anyone whispering to each other during class is cheating as far as he is concerned and pulls out a cane with which he plans to beat both him and Sid. He makes Danny hold out his left hand and strikes him with the cane. He is about to deliver a second blow when Headmaster Snoddy, alerted by the gasps of the other children, comes into the classroom and tells Lancaster he must see him in his office at once.In his office, Headmaster Snoddy tells an arrogant and unrepentant Captain Lancaster that corporal punishment is against the policy of the school, and that Lancaster should know this as it was part of his contract. Lancaster insists he was within his rights because it was a case of academic dishonesty. Snoddy decides to investigate for himself. He calls Sid and Danny to come to him and tells the rest of the class, who have crowded round Danny to try to comfort him, to stay back. He demands the two boys to give their word of honor, and tell him the truth. Lancaster watches this proceeding with a disdainful eye. Both Sid and Danny tell the Headmaster the truth - that they did not cheat - and he allows them to rejoin their classmates. He then informs Lancaster that if he strikes a child again he will be fired on the spot. Lancaster refuses to respond to this, and Snoddy barks at him to tell him if he understood him. Reluctantly, Lancaster agrees to not use the cane, and furiously storms back to his class.Danny returns home to find William also in a bad mood. As soon as he sees the red welt on Danny's hand and hears that Captain Lancaster accused his son of cheating, he flies into a rage and announces his intention of hobbling over to Captain Lancaster's house and beating the living daylights out of him. Danny, knowing this will only make Lancaster's enmity against him worse, begs William not to, finally saying "I'll hate you if you do it" because William is past listening to anything else. Once he has William's attention, Danny insists this isn't William's battle to fight, and William hugs him and apologizes, explaining it's his frustration at being unable to teach Hazell a lesson that will get him to leave him and the rest of the village alone that has got him in such a touchy mood. The worst part is that he has the perfect plan - poach all 700 of Hazell's pheasants the night before his annual shooting party, and keep them at the filling station until after Hazell has been embarrassed in front of the high-society people he invites every year - but he has no means of carrying it out. Danny agrees such a heist would be the perfect remedy to the problem at hand, but there seems no way it can be done.That night, Danny spots the jar of sleeping pills Doc Spencer left for William, and is struck with a brilliant idea - dope all the pheasants so they won't be able to fly up to roost after the keepers go home for the night. William consults Doc Spencer and he agrees it's a great plan, and that it would make Danny take over his grandfather's place as the champion of the world at poaching. He gets them a large supply of sleeping powders, and says he will help them to collect all the drugged pheasants and get some extra help to do so. Next, William goes to Mr. Snoddy and asks for his help in carrying out the heist. Finally, he and Danny visit Wheeler's store and ask him for raisins. Mr. Wheeler knows this means they're after pheasants, so when they buy all 30 boxes he is amazed that they would try such a thing.Back at the Caravan, Danny and William begin the laborious process of crushing the pills into powder and drugging each raisin individually. They stay up all day and late into the night, until William finally tells Danny they must get some sleep - he'll close down the garage for the day and finish the last of the raisins himself in the morning.Danny runs to school the next morning and mercifully makes it on time. However, this, coupled with the fact he was up so late the night before, serves to make him utterly exhausted, and he falls asleep during class. Sid elbows him frantically, trying to wake him before he gets in trouble, but Lancaster spots this wakes him with a clapper and tells him he must stay after class. Danny tells him William has ordered him to come straight home after school, but Lancaster sharply tells him he must obey his teacher. He then punishes Danny, after the other students have left, by having him run 20 laps round the schoolyard. However, on the second lap, Danny discovers he passes out of Lancaster's line of sight whenever he goes round one particular side of the yard and takes this opportunity to use a nearby shed to climb over the wall and flee home. Lancaster, realizing after a few moments Danny has disappeared, runs in pursuit but is neither agile nor steady enough to climb over the wall and ends up tearing his trousers on a nail sticking out of the shed. Mr. Snoddy comes outside on his way home to see Lancaster, with the seat of his pants ripped, hanging onto the wall with both hands for dear life. Snoddy is clearly amused by the sight; humiliated, Lancaster screams at Snoddy that the school is a disgusting shambles and that he is resigning, to which Mr. Snoddy simply replies "Good!" and leaves Lancaster to fall off the wall.That night, just before sundown, Danny and William sneak through the woods, scattering the drugged raisins about. All goes well until Rabbetts and Springer appear. The two Smiths hide beneath some shrubbery to keep from being spotted. However, Rabbetts notices the pheasants are congregated about something and starts forward to investigate. Fearing they'll spot the raisins, William snaps a twig. The two keepers look about for the source of the noise but to no avail. In frustration, Rabbetts says he's had enough and is off home. Springer reminds him of the bounty Hazell offered them for shooting William, but Rabbetts scoffs and says William would never hobble about the woods with his leg in plaster and that he has no intention of staying up all night on the day before the big shoot, on the miserable wages Hazell pays them. Springer agrees this makes sense and they leave. Relieved, William and Danny continue to scatter the raisins.As darkness falls, the pheasants fly up into the trees to roost. However, just as Danny planned, they are too drugged to manage this and eventually flop back to the ground unconscious. William and Danny dance and celebrate, and when Doc Spencer shows up with Mr. Snoddy and the postman in tow, they have the pheasants all gathered together waiting for them. The five of them gather up the sleeping birds in sacks as gently as they can and carry them back to the workshop, laying them out on the floor to sleep off the drug. Doc Spencer wonders what they're going to do when they wake, but Danny knows exactly what he wants to do - set them free to live as wild birds. Danny and William, with Snoddy and Spencer's help, then send a fire balloon up into the sky as a prearranged signal that would let the rest of the village know they succeeded. The Clipstones, Mr. Wheeler, Sergeant Samways and all the rest of the villagers celebrate as they see the balloon fly by.The next morning, all the important people arrive at Hazell's estate for the shoot. Before Hazell arrives, they laugh about his attempts to fit in with their crowd and how he does everything wrong. But they are there because of the birds so they try to be polite when Hazell himself shows up on the scene. Springer gets a group of beaters together to drive the birds out of the woods, and Rabbetts starts setting up stands for the shooters. Hazell calls one of the guests, Sir Charles Tallon, aside. It is revealed that Tallon is a developer, and that the whole buying-land-for-the-annual-shooting-party thing is just a ruse disguising Hazell's master plan. His real intention, once he has all the land, is to develop a new township right in the villages backyard, destroying the farmland. This would have been opposed by the villagers, which is why he has kept it on the down-low. Tallon sees, on the maps and blueprints, the Smith's plot of land and says without it the development can't go forward. Hazell lies and tells him he's got the property cheap because he didn't tell William how much it was really worth to him. Tallon doesn't like these dealings, but business is business so he reluctantly makes a deal that his company will develop Hazell's new town.Everyone goes to the fields outside the woods for the first drive. Several villagers secretly watch as the beaters go crazy trying to drive pheasants that aren't there out of the woods, including Danny, William, and Doc Spencer. Hazell and his guests demand of the two gamekeepers where the birds are, but they don't know. The guests start to openly mock Hazell, and a furious Hazell orders Rabbetts to find the birds or lose what little pay he's getting.Rabbetts and Springer set off in their jeep to drive around Hazell's land, with Springer at the wheel and Rabbetts standing up looking around for pheasants. Meanwhile, Doc Spencer drives William and Danny back to the filling station, all of them still laughing over the sight they just witnessed. However, when they arrive they find the pheasants are waking up sooner than expected and are starting to run around confused, not understanding how they got in the unfamiliar place. Doc Spencer, Danny and William desperately try to keep them on the ground because if they fly up they'll be spotted, but it's no use. Several of them are seen by Rabbetts through his field glasses, and he alerts Hazell to where they are coming from.Hazell tears through the village in his car, with his gamekeepers' jeep and the cars of all the rest of his shooting party following out of curiosity as to what he's going to do. They knock Sergeant Samways off his bike in passing, and he pursues them, furiously. Several other people from the village run after them. Upon arriving at the filling station, Hazell smugly tells William he's caught him this time and that he will force him to sell his land. Samways appears and Hazell demands he arrest William for stealing the birds. However, Samways is more interested in serving a ticket to Hazell for unsafe driving, and when Hazell tries to insist, Samways says as he didn't see William in the act, the birds are on his land and that they are technically his for the moment.Tallon, hearing this, demands of William whether he still owns his property. William tells him this is the case and that he does not and never did have any intention of selling it. Tallon tells Hazell the deal is off and then informs the rest of the villagers standing round of what Hazell was planning to do, much to their horror. Humiliated and defeated, Hazell curses William and the villagers and leaves in disgrace, with Rabbetts and Springer in tow.Tallon remarks that William seems to have saved the day by refusing to give in to Hazell. William corrects him and tells him that Danny, who drove a car and saved him from the pit and instigated the whole proceeding, is the real hero here. The villagers give Danny three cheers as William triumphantly carries him on his shoulders back to the filling station and the pheasants fly free. | Danny, the Champion of the World | 59e6cec7-3802-fca5-3e1f-b405ca720ebc | What is the name of the new schoolmaster? | [

/m/0fyth4 | It is 1955, somewhere in rural England. Wealthy Victor Hazell owns a vast estate, and drives his expensive car proudly around it to survey his domain. He drives past several signs that show he has acquired much of his property recently, by buying out surrounding smallholdings. There are hundreds of prime pheasants wandering around his property, and as he drives along his two gamekeepers, Rabbetts and Springer, wish him a good morning. However, he does not acknowledge their presence, throws his cigar out the window and drives on proudly, much to their disgust.Hazell's good mood is ruined when he stops on a hillside and spots, in the distance, the garage and filling station owned by William Smith and his nine-year-old son, Danny. Hazell gets out of his car and peers at the structure through a set of field glasses, watching Danny fill the tank of a customer's car. In high bad humor, he returns to his own car and proceeds down the hill towards the filling station.In the garage, William and Danny have just finished repairing a car another customer left behind. Danny asks permission to drive it out of the garage, and William lets him do so. Hazell's car comes barreling down the hill at the same time as Danny is backing the car out of the garage, and both he and Hazell are forced to slam brakes to avoid a collision. William praises Danny for his quick thinking and Hazell, putting on a friendly tone, does the same. He then asks William if he'd be willing to sell his land - the Smiths own six acres of field and the garage, filling station, and an old caravan which serves as their home - but William tells him he already explained to the solicitor from Hazell's estate he was not interested.Hazell explains to William that his land is smack in the middle of the rest of his estate, and is preventing him from achieving his goal of having one of the biggest and best pheasant shoots in that part of England. He offers him 2,000 pounds, then 2,500, but William remains unmoved. Hazell frustratedly demands why the obviously poor Smiths refuse to sell their land, and are willing to give up a small fortune that could give Danny a better future. William calmly tells Hazell that that they are happy where they are and have no intention of selling. Hazell warns them not to get in his way, then storms out of the station.That night, in the caravan, Danny interrupts his father's nightly bedtime story to ask him about Victor Hazell. William, a former veteran, tells Danny that Hazell is a war profiteer and a crook, and that because of his power and wealth he is likely to make trouble for them. However, he cheerfully insists that he and Danny together can stand up to him, which comforts Danny. The next morning is the first day of school, so they go to bed to get up early.The next morning, William walks Danny to school. In the village they pass and greet several friends - the postman, Mr. Wheeler (the grocer), Mrs. Clipstone (the vicar's wife), and Enoch Samways (the village policeman). At school, William hands Danny a repair bill to give to Mr. Snoddy, the school's Scottish headmaster, and they part ways. Reverend Clipstone leads the students and teachers in a hymn and prayers, and Mr. Snoddy introduces a new teacher he has appointed to teach the fourth grade class, Captain Lancaster.After assembly, Danny goes to Mr. Snoddy's office to leave the letter on his desk. He thought Mr. Snoddy was not there, but discovers him quietly sneaking a nip of gin. Mr. Snoddy is a lenient and gentle man, and does not berate him. He shrugs it off, and tells him its a sort of open secret that he drinks a lot, but asks that he not go publicizing it. Danny agrees, and goes back to his classroom. Captain Lancaster gives him no chance to explain why he was late, but demands his last name and in rather military fashion publicly berates and belittles him for not only being late but trying to quietly enter the class unnoticed, as he deems that sneaking. He says he will not punish any students this first day of term, but, after embarrassing Danny, informs the entire class that from now on he will tolerate no breach of conduct or rules in his class, with punctuality, order, and strict discipline being the absolute necessity for every student.Danny returns home to find ministry inspectors on their property seeing if they are mixing fuel grades, which while a common practice is illegal. Of course, the Smiths are not doing this, and the men are forced to leave empty-handed. William tells Danny the men were obviously sent by Victor Hazell, because they weren't due for their regular inspection for some time. He also tells the men, who play innocent, that he knows it's a put-up job. He tells Danny he suspects they won't be the last. The men call Mr. Hazell and tell him of their failure, but Hazell tells them he wanted William and Danny to know it was a put-up job so they would realize his power. He then makes a call to a different ministry to call in a favor, though it is not disclosed what.That night, Danny wakes up in the dark to discover William is not in the caravan. He goes to see if he's working late in the garage, but he is not there. He searches the property in vain, then waits on the porch of the caravan for William to return. William comes back about 11 PM and is astonished to see Danny is awake, as he has never woken in the middle of the night before. He explains that he went up to Hazell's woods some miles down the road to see if he could get back at him by poaching a pheasant, which shocks Danny.William apologizes for leaving without telling Danny where he was going, and goes on to explain that when he was a boy, his father poached most of their food because they couldn't get it any other way. In fact it was how most of the poor people in the village survived, and no one made much of a fuss about it because ownership of game animals is determined by where the animal happens to be at the time as long as it is alive, so prosecution is difficult. However, the gamekeepers still took a potshot at the odd poacher now and then if they saw them, so that added a spice of danger to it, and it became considered almost a sport. William also explains that he considers the rearing and shooting of masses of tame birds just for fun "organized slaughter" and that it defies nature; this is yet another reason that he and others don't consider poaching, as it is a hunter stalking prey and quite in line with nature, a full-on crime. He tells Danny his late father (named Horace in the book but never mentioned by name in the film) was considered an expert poacher and studied it as if it were an art or science. He learned that pheasants love raisins, which was considered a great discovery at the time.In the morning, William goes on to demonstrate to Danny his father's other discovery of how to catch pheasants quietly without a keeper being alerted by noises. They own a small flock of chickens, and he uses them as an example, digging a hole in the ground and leaving a paper cone full of raisins in it. They hide and watch as a chicken eats the raisins and gets the paper cone stuck on her head. Once her eyes are covered, she does not move. Danny and William stroke her and pick her up but she stays quite still as long as the paper is over her eyes. William explains it's the same with pheasants, and lets the confused chicken go free.A car comes into the station and William assumes its business as the engine sounds rough. However, it is an inspector from the Ministry of Health and Child Welfare, Miss Hunter, who has been told that William is an unfit father and has come to investigate the complaint. William is quite cooperative and kindly offers to show her around - as she and her assistant start the inspection, he whispers to Danny to fix the engine. Danny gets out a toolkit and proceeds to take the inner workings of the car apart.William shows her the caravan, the outhouse that is their bathroom, the tin washtub they use to bathe in, and the rest of the property. While the caravan is tidy and there is nothing that is strictly against code, Miss Hunter is aghast at their primitive conditions and demands if William thinks it is right to raise a child this way. William insists that there is nothing wrong, and Miss Hunter attacks from another angle, demanding to know why their records show Danny did not enter school until he was 7 years old, for the law requires children be in school at 5. William reveals he knows the law quite well, and that it also says that if alternate tuition from a qualified instructor is available during the child's early years, the age limit is no longer in effect. He also reveals that before the war he was a full-time schoolteacher. Miss Hunter is caught off-guard, but then insists Danny would have benefited from social interaction and that William is still in the wrong.As she leaves to make her report, she discovers Danny has taken her engine apart. She is furious and threatens to prosecute, until Danny begins rattling off what all is wrong with her engine and that he can fix it if she will just wait a moment. Miss Hunter and her assistant are stunned, and go inside the caravan with William to wait. William then tells them he's sorry he ordered Danny to fix the car without permission but that he was trying to prove the point that Danny is not a truant and is in fact an extremely intelligent child and a prodigy when it comes to mechanical work. He also explains the reason he was late in sending Danny to school was that, as his wife died when Danny was four months old, it took him a while to reconcile himself to being alone without Danny there as Danny is all he had. Miss Hunter, finally convinced William is not a poor parent, returns to her repaired car and assures the Smiths they need fear no further inspections. She and her assistant leave.Danny and William get back to their original discussion as they work on an old Austin Seven mini-car left by a customer. William explains last night was the first time since Danny's mother died that he had been out poaching on his own, as he wanted to wait until Danny was old enough to be left alone for a couple hours. Danny tells him he won't mind if he goes out again, so long as he has prior warning of when he's planning to leave and come back. William promises he will do this.The head of the Ministry calls Victor Hazell to report the failure of the attempt. Hazell is frustrated, but tells his friend he'll still honor this favor that was done for him. He also refuses to give up trying to run the Smiths off their land.The next morning, Danny and William are en route to school when they spot a rabbit caught in a snare Hazell's gamekeepers had left for vermin. He and Danny release the rabbit, but the delay causes Danny to be late for school. William tells Danny to tell Captain Lancaster that he will take the blame. However, upon arrival to school, Danny is derisively told by his teacher it was "kind of him to grace them with his presence at last." Danny starts to deliver William's message but Captain Lancaster shuts him up before he gets a full sentence out and tells him no excuse would be acceptable, and punishes him to write "I will not be late for Captain Lancaster's Class" 1,000 times along with the rest of his homework. Danny returns home and tells what happened. William is disgusted by Captain Lancaster's apparent desire to make Danny the class example, and Danny reluctantly sets out to write his lines.That night, William leaves to go see if he can catch a pheasant this time, as he was unsuccessful last time. Danny is still hard at work with his lines, but he promises William he'll get to bed on time and not wait up for him. William tells Danny he'll be home by 9 and sets out.Danny wakes in the wee hours of the morning to discover William has not returned. Knowing that this means something awful has happened, he immediately dresses, gets in the Austin Seven, and drives it up the road to Hazell's woods. He passes a police car on patrol, and they turn around and give chase. However, before they catch up to him he has turned off the main road, and they drive on into the night without ever seeing him again.Danny starts into the woods to search for William, but hears Rabbetts and Springer. The two gamekeepers are grumbling about staying out all night patrolling traps Hazell has set for poachers, when he pays them so badly. They then triumphantly shout about having caught a poacher when they look in one of the traps, and hurry off to tell Hazell. Springer is hesitant to go at first, but Rabbetts insists that if the man has been caught in the trap this long he can't get out now, so they leave together. As soon as they are gone, Danny discovers that the trap is a sheer-sided pit about 12 to 14 feet deep, like a tiger trap. William is inside it, and he hid his face from the keepers but he suspects they know who he is. His ankle is broken so he has no hope of climbing out, until Danny tells him he drove the Austin and that there is a tow rope in it. He runs to fetch it.Rabbetts and Springer arrive at the house, where Hazell is holding a fancy party. He takes a gun and joins them, hurrying back through the woods to find the pit. By now, Danny has helped William out of the hole, and they are hobbling as fast as they can back to the car. By the time Hazell and the keepers arrive at the pit, they discover that William is gone. They set off in pursuit when they hear the engine of the Austin, but it is already roaring away by the time they reach the road. Rabbetts informs Hazell that he's almost certain the poacher was William Smith, and Hazell agrees with him that it must be. He promises both keepers 100 pounds apiece if they shoot William the next time he tries to poach a pheasant, because he needs him gone.The next morning, Doctor Spencer - an old friend of Williams and fellow poacher - comes to inspect his broken ankle. He is horrified by the thought of someone digging tiger traps to catch people because someone could get killed that way, and reveals he has a deep dislike of the land-grabbing Hazell as William and Danny. Sergeant Samways pedals up on his bike and informs William that Hazell has ordered him to question the Smiths because he thinks they were on his land poaching. Hazell also volunteered that William may have broken his leg while in the woods. This worries Danny and William; however, Samways surprises them by not allowing William to make any sort of statement and showing them that he is writing down in his notebook that William said he was home and broke his ankle falling down the caravan's front steps. The ambulance arrives, and Spencer and Samways help get William into it.William comes home later that evening with his leg in a cast and a cane to walk with, and Danny comes out to meet the ambulance. It is pouring down rain, so William and Doc Spencer try to hurry inside to keep themselves and Danny from getting too wet. However, Hazell and the two keepers arrive and stop them. He informs William he knows most of the village is in on this together and warns him that if he comes on his land again he will get shot. Doc Spencer tries to tell Hazell off, but Hazell shuts him up and demands William give him an answer. William coolly tells Hazell that at the moment HE is the trespasser here and that he has one minute to get off his land. Hazell is impressed in spite of himself by William's boldness and leaves, telling his keepers that he's certain William's desire for revenge will make him try again and that they had better be ready to shoot him when he does.Doc Spencer stays for tea, and he and William both agree something must be done about Hazell. William promises he'll think of something. Doc Spencer leaves William some sleeping pills for the pain, and heads off back to his own house, thanking Danny for making the tea for him.The next day during class, Danny's friend Sid Morgan thinks Danny is nodding off, and tries to get his attention by whispering his name. Lancaster catches him in the act, and demands he and Danny both come up front. He tells them they were cheating and will both be punished. Danny insists they were doing nothing of the kind, but Lancaster stubbornly says that anyone whispering to each other during class is cheating as far as he is concerned and pulls out a cane with which he plans to beat both him and Sid. He makes Danny hold out his left hand and strikes him with the cane. He is about to deliver a second blow when Headmaster Snoddy, alerted by the gasps of the other children, comes into the classroom and tells Lancaster he must see him in his office at once.In his office, Headmaster Snoddy tells an arrogant and unrepentant Captain Lancaster that corporal punishment is against the policy of the school, and that Lancaster should know this as it was part of his contract. Lancaster insists he was within his rights because it was a case of academic dishonesty. Snoddy decides to investigate for himself. He calls Sid and Danny to come to him and tells the rest of the class, who have crowded round Danny to try to comfort him, to stay back. He demands the two boys to give their word of honor, and tell him the truth. Lancaster watches this proceeding with a disdainful eye. Both Sid and Danny tell the Headmaster the truth - that they did not cheat - and he allows them to rejoin their classmates. He then informs Lancaster that if he strikes a child again he will be fired on the spot. Lancaster refuses to respond to this, and Snoddy barks at him to tell him if he understood him. Reluctantly, Lancaster agrees to not use the cane, and furiously storms back to his class.Danny returns home to find William also in a bad mood. As soon as he sees the red welt on Danny's hand and hears that Captain Lancaster accused his son of cheating, he flies into a rage and announces his intention of hobbling over to Captain Lancaster's house and beating the living daylights out of him. Danny, knowing this will only make Lancaster's enmity against him worse, begs William not to, finally saying "I'll hate you if you do it" because William is past listening to anything else. Once he has William's attention, Danny insists this isn't William's battle to fight, and William hugs him and apologizes, explaining it's his frustration at being unable to teach Hazell a lesson that will get him to leave him and the rest of the village alone that has got him in such a touchy mood. The worst part is that he has the perfect plan - poach all 700 of Hazell's pheasants the night before his annual shooting party, and keep them at the filling station until after Hazell has been embarrassed in front of the high-society people he invites every year - but he has no means of carrying it out. Danny agrees such a heist would be the perfect remedy to the problem at hand, but there seems no way it can be done.That night, Danny spots the jar of sleeping pills Doc Spencer left for William, and is struck with a brilliant idea - dope all the pheasants so they won't be able to fly up to roost after the keepers go home for the night. William consults Doc Spencer and he agrees it's a great plan, and that it would make Danny take over his grandfather's place as the champion of the world at poaching. He gets them a large supply of sleeping powders, and says he will help them to collect all the drugged pheasants and get some extra help to do so. Next, William goes to Mr. Snoddy and asks for his help in carrying out the heist. Finally, he and Danny visit Wheeler's store and ask him for raisins. Mr. Wheeler knows this means they're after pheasants, so when they buy all 30 boxes he is amazed that they would try such a thing.Back at the Caravan, Danny and William begin the laborious process of crushing the pills into powder and drugging each raisin individually. They stay up all day and late into the night, until William finally tells Danny they must get some sleep - he'll close down the garage for the day and finish the last of the raisins himself in the morning.Danny runs to school the next morning and mercifully makes it on time. However, this, coupled with the fact he was up so late the night before, serves to make him utterly exhausted, and he falls asleep during class. Sid elbows him frantically, trying to wake him before he gets in trouble, but Lancaster spots this wakes him with a clapper and tells him he must stay after class. Danny tells him William has ordered him to come straight home after school, but Lancaster sharply tells him he must obey his teacher. He then punishes Danny, after the other students have left, by having him run 20 laps round the schoolyard. However, on the second lap, Danny discovers he passes out of Lancaster's line of sight whenever he goes round one particular side of the yard and takes this opportunity to use a nearby shed to climb over the wall and flee home. Lancaster, realizing after a few moments Danny has disappeared, runs in pursuit but is neither agile nor steady enough to climb over the wall and ends up tearing his trousers on a nail sticking out of the shed. Mr. Snoddy comes outside on his way home to see Lancaster, with the seat of his pants ripped, hanging onto the wall with both hands for dear life. Snoddy is clearly amused by the sight; humiliated, Lancaster screams at Snoddy that the school is a disgusting shambles and that he is resigning, to which Mr. Snoddy simply replies "Good!" and leaves Lancaster to fall off the wall.That night, just before sundown, Danny and William sneak through the woods, scattering the drugged raisins about.

However, just as Danny planned, they are too drugged to manage this and eventually flop back to the ground unconscious. William and Danny dance and celebrate, and when Doc Spencer shows up with Mr. Snoddy and the postman in tow, they have the pheasants all gathered together waiting for them.

Doc Spencer wonders what they're going to do when they wake, but Danny knows exactly what he wants to do - set them free to live as wild birds. Danny and William, with Snoddy and Spencer's help, then send a fire balloon up into the sky as a prearranged signal that would let the rest of the village know they succeeded.

They knock Sergeant Samways off his bike in passing, and he pursues them, furiously. Several other people from the village run after them. Upon arriving at the filling station, Hazell smugly tells William he's caught him this time and that he will force him to sell his land. Samways appears and Hazell demands he arrest William for stealing the birds.

/m/0fyth4 | It is 1955, somewhere in rural England. Wealthy Victor Hazell owns a vast estate, and drives his expensive car proudly around it to survey his domain. He drives past several signs that show he has acquired much of his property recently, by buying out surrounding smallholdings. There are hundreds of prime pheasants wandering around his property, and as he drives along his two gamekeepers, Rabbetts and Springer, wish him a good morning. However, he does not acknowledge their presence, throws his cigar out the window and drives on proudly, much to their disgust.Hazell's good mood is ruined when he stops on a hillside and spots, in the distance, the garage and filling station owned by William Smith and his nine-year-old son, Danny. Hazell gets out of his car and peers at the structure through a set of field glasses, watching Danny fill the tank of a customer's car. In high bad humor, he returns to his own car and proceeds down the hill towards the filling station.In the garage, William and Danny have just finished repairing a car another customer left behind. Danny asks permission to drive it out of the garage, and William lets him do so. Hazell's car comes barreling down the hill at the same time as Danny is backing the car out of the garage, and both he and Hazell are forced to slam brakes to avoid a collision. William praises Danny for his quick thinking and Hazell, putting on a friendly tone, does the same. He then asks William if he'd be willing to sell his land - the Smiths own six acres of field and the garage, filling station, and an old caravan which serves as their home - but William tells him he already explained to the solicitor from Hazell's estate he was not interested.Hazell explains to William that his land is smack in the middle of the rest of his estate, and is preventing him from achieving his goal of having one of the biggest and best pheasant shoots in that part of England. He offers him 2,000 pounds, then 2,500, but William remains unmoved. Hazell frustratedly demands why the obviously poor Smiths refuse to sell their land, and are willing to give up a small fortune that could give Danny a better future. William calmly tells Hazell that that they are happy where they are and have no intention of selling. Hazell warns them not to get in his way, then storms out of the station.That night, in the caravan, Danny interrupts his father's nightly bedtime story to ask him about Victor Hazell. William, a former veteran, tells Danny that Hazell is a war profiteer and a crook, and that because of his power and wealth he is likely to make trouble for them. However, he cheerfully insists that he and Danny together can stand up to him, which comforts Danny. The next morning is the first day of school, so they go to bed to get up early.The next morning, William walks Danny to school. In the village they pass and greet several friends - the postman, Mr. Wheeler (the grocer), Mrs. Clipstone (the vicar's wife), and Enoch Samways (the village policeman). At school, William hands Danny a repair bill to give to Mr. Snoddy, the school's Scottish headmaster, and they part ways. Reverend Clipstone leads the students and teachers in a hymn and prayers, and Mr. Snoddy introduces a new teacher he has appointed to teach the fourth grade class, Captain Lancaster.After assembly, Danny goes to Mr. Snoddy's office to leave the letter on his desk. He thought Mr. Snoddy was not there, but discovers him quietly sneaking a nip of gin. Mr. Snoddy is a lenient and gentle man, and does not berate him. He shrugs it off, and tells him its a sort of open secret that he drinks a lot, but asks that he not go publicizing it. Danny agrees, and goes back to his classroom. Captain Lancaster gives him no chance to explain why he was late, but demands his last name and in rather military fashion publicly berates and belittles him for not only being late but trying to quietly enter the class unnoticed, as he deems that sneaking. He says he will not punish any students this first day of term, but, after embarrassing Danny, informs the entire class that from now on he will tolerate no breach of conduct or rules in his class, with punctuality, order, and strict discipline being the absolute necessity for every student.Danny returns home to find ministry inspectors on their property seeing if they are mixing fuel grades, which while a common practice is illegal. Of course, the Smiths are not doing this, and the men are forced to leave empty-handed. William tells Danny the men were obviously sent by Victor Hazell, because they weren't due for their regular inspection for some time. He also tells the men, who play innocent, that he knows it's a put-up job. He tells Danny he suspects they won't be the last. The men call Mr. Hazell and tell him of their failure, but Hazell tells them he wanted William and Danny to know it was a put-up job so they would realize his power. He then makes a call to a different ministry to call in a favor, though it is not disclosed what.That night, Danny wakes up in the dark to discover William is not in the caravan. He goes to see if he's working late in the garage, but he is not there. He searches the property in vain, then waits on the porch of the caravan for William to return. William comes back about 11 PM and is astonished to see Danny is awake, as he has never woken in the middle of the night before. He explains that he went up to Hazell's woods some miles down the road to see if he could get back at him by poaching a pheasant, which shocks Danny.William apologizes for leaving without telling Danny where he was going, and goes on to explain that when he was a boy, his father poached most of their food because they couldn't get it any other way. In fact it was how most of the poor people in the village survived, and no one made much of a fuss about it because ownership of game animals is determined by where the animal happens to be at the time as long as it is alive, so prosecution is difficult. However, the gamekeepers still took a potshot at the odd poacher now and then if they saw them, so that added a spice of danger to it, and it became considered almost a sport. William also explains that he considers the rearing and shooting of masses of tame birds just for fun "organized slaughter" and that it defies nature; this is yet another reason that he and others don't consider poaching, as it is a hunter stalking prey and quite in line with nature, a full-on crime. He tells Danny his late father (named Horace in the book but never mentioned by name in the film) was considered an expert poacher and studied it as if it were an art or science. He learned that pheasants love raisins, which was considered a great discovery at the time.In the morning, William goes on to demonstrate to Danny his father's other discovery of how to catch pheasants quietly without a keeper being alerted by noises. They own a small flock of chickens, and he uses them as an example, digging a hole in the ground and leaving a paper cone full of raisins in it. They hide and watch as a chicken eats the raisins and gets the paper cone stuck on her head. Once her eyes are covered, she does not move. Danny and William stroke her and pick her up but she stays quite still as long as the paper is over her eyes. William explains it's the same with pheasants, and lets the confused chicken go free.A car comes into the station and William assumes its business as the engine sounds rough. However, it is an inspector from the Ministry of Health and Child Welfare, Miss Hunter, who has been told that William is an unfit father and has come to investigate the complaint. William is quite cooperative and kindly offers to show her around - as she and her assistant start the inspection, he whispers to Danny to fix the engine. Danny gets out a toolkit and proceeds to take the inner workings of the car apart.William shows her the caravan, the outhouse that is their bathroom, the tin washtub they use to bathe in, and the rest of the property. While the caravan is tidy and there is nothing that is strictly against code, Miss Hunter is aghast at their primitive conditions and demands if William thinks it is right to raise a child this way. William insists that there is nothing wrong, and Miss Hunter attacks from another angle, demanding to know why their records show Danny did not enter school until he was 7 years old, for the law requires children be in school at 5. William reveals he knows the law quite well, and that it also says that if alternate tuition from a qualified instructor is available during the child's early years, the age limit is no longer in effect. He also reveals that before the war he was a full-time schoolteacher. Miss Hunter is caught off-guard, but then insists Danny would have benefited from social interaction and that William is still in the wrong.As she leaves to make her report, she discovers Danny has taken her engine apart. She is furious and threatens to prosecute, until Danny begins rattling off what all is wrong with her engine and that he can fix it if she will just wait a moment. Miss Hunter and her assistant are stunned, and go inside the caravan with William to wait. William then tells them he's sorry he ordered Danny to fix the car without permission but that he was trying to prove the point that Danny is not a truant and is in fact an extremely intelligent child and a prodigy when it comes to mechanical work. He also explains the reason he was late in sending Danny to school was that, as his wife died when Danny was four months old, it took him a while to reconcile himself to being alone without Danny there as Danny is all he had. Miss Hunter, finally convinced William is not a poor parent, returns to her repaired car and assures the Smiths they need fear no further inspections. She and her assistant leave.Danny and William get back to their original discussion as they work on an old Austin Seven mini-car left by a customer. William explains last night was the first time since Danny's mother died that he had been out poaching on his own, as he wanted to wait until Danny was old enough to be left alone for a couple hours. Danny tells him he won't mind if he goes out again, so long as he has prior warning of when he's planning to leave and come back. William promises he will do this.The head of the Ministry calls Victor Hazell to report the failure of the attempt. Hazell is frustrated, but tells his friend he'll still honor this favor that was done for him. He also refuses to give up trying to run the Smiths off their land.The next morning, Danny and William are en route to school when they spot a rabbit caught in a snare Hazell's gamekeepers had left for vermin. He and Danny release the rabbit, but the delay causes Danny to be late for school. William tells Danny to tell Captain Lancaster that he will take the blame. However, upon arrival to school, Danny is derisively told by his teacher it was "kind of him to grace them with his presence at last." Danny starts to deliver William's message but Captain Lancaster shuts him up before he gets a full sentence out and tells him no excuse would be acceptable, and punishes him to write "I will not be late for Captain Lancaster's Class" 1,000 times along with the rest of his homework. Danny returns home and tells what happened. William is disgusted by Captain Lancaster's apparent desire to make Danny the class example, and Danny reluctantly sets out to write his lines.That night, William leaves to go see if he can catch a pheasant this time, as he was unsuccessful last time. Danny is still hard at work with his lines, but he promises William he'll get to bed on time and not wait up for him. William tells Danny he'll be home by 9 and sets out.Danny wakes in the wee hours of the morning to discover William has not returned. Knowing that this means something awful has happened, he immediately dresses, gets in the Austin Seven, and drives it up the road to Hazell's woods. He passes a police car on patrol, and they turn around and give chase. However, before they catch up to him he has turned off the main road, and they drive on into the night without ever seeing him again.Danny starts into the woods to search for William, but hears Rabbetts and Springer. The two gamekeepers are grumbling about staying out all night patrolling traps Hazell has set for poachers, when he pays them so badly. They then triumphantly shout about having caught a poacher when they look in one of the traps, and hurry off to tell Hazell. Springer is hesitant to go at first, but Rabbetts insists that if the man has been caught in the trap this long he can't get out now, so they leave together. As soon as they are gone, Danny discovers that the trap is a sheer-sided pit about 12 to 14 feet deep, like a tiger trap. William is inside it, and he hid his face from the keepers but he suspects they know who he is. His ankle is broken so he has no hope of climbing out, until Danny tells him he drove the Austin and that there is a tow rope in it. He runs to fetch it.Rabbetts and Springer arrive at the house, where Hazell is holding a fancy party. He takes a gun and joins them, hurrying back through the woods to find the pit. By now, Danny has helped William out of the hole, and they are hobbling as fast as they can back to the car. By the time Hazell and the keepers arrive at the pit, they discover that William is gone. They set off in pursuit when they hear the engine of the Austin, but it is already roaring away by the time they reach the road. Rabbetts informs Hazell that he's almost certain the poacher was William Smith, and Hazell agrees with him that it must be. He promises both keepers 100 pounds apiece if they shoot William the next time he tries to poach a pheasant, because he needs him gone.The next morning, Doctor Spencer - an old friend of Williams and fellow poacher - comes to inspect his broken ankle. He is horrified by the thought of someone digging tiger traps to catch people because someone could get killed that way, and reveals he has a deep dislike of the land-grabbing Hazell as William and Danny. Sergeant Samways pedals up on his bike and informs William that Hazell has ordered him to question the Smiths because he thinks they were on his land poaching. Hazell also volunteered that William may have broken his leg while in the woods. This worries Danny and William; however, Samways surprises them by not allowing William to make any sort of statement and showing them that he is writing down in his notebook that William said he was home and broke his ankle falling down the caravan's front steps. The ambulance arrives, and Spencer and Samways help get William into it.William comes home later that evening with his leg in a cast and a cane to walk with, and Danny comes out to meet the ambulance. It is pouring down rain, so William and Doc Spencer try to hurry inside to keep themselves and Danny from getting too wet. However, Hazell and the two keepers arrive and stop them. He informs William he knows most of the village is in on this together and warns him that if he comes on his land again he will get shot. Doc Spencer tries to tell Hazell off, but Hazell shuts him up and demands William give him an answer. William coolly tells Hazell that at the moment HE is the trespasser here and that he has one minute to get off his land. Hazell is impressed in spite of himself by William's boldness and leaves, telling his keepers that he's certain William's desire for revenge will make him try again and that they had better be ready to shoot him when he does.Doc Spencer stays for tea, and he and William both agree something must be done about Hazell. William promises he'll think of something. Doc Spencer leaves William some sleeping pills for the pain, and heads off back to his own house, thanking Danny for making the tea for him.The next day during class, Danny's friend Sid Morgan thinks Danny is nodding off, and tries to get his attention by whispering his name. Lancaster catches him in the act, and demands he and Danny both come up front. He tells them they were cheating and will both be punished. Danny insists they were doing nothing of the kind, but Lancaster stubbornly says that anyone whispering to each other during class is cheating as far as he is concerned and pulls out a cane with which he plans to beat both him and Sid. He makes Danny hold out his left hand and strikes him with the cane. He is about to deliver a second blow when Headmaster Snoddy, alerted by the gasps of the other children, comes into the classroom and tells Lancaster he must see him in his office at once.In his office, Headmaster Snoddy tells an arrogant and unrepentant Captain Lancaster that corporal punishment is against the policy of the school, and that Lancaster should know this as it was part of his contract. Lancaster insists he was within his rights because it was a case of academic dishonesty. Snoddy decides to investigate for himself. He calls Sid and Danny to come to him and tells the rest of the class, who have crowded round Danny to try to comfort him, to stay back. He demands the two boys to give their word of honor, and tell him the truth. Lancaster watches this proceeding with a disdainful eye. Both Sid and Danny tell the Headmaster the truth - that they did not cheat - and he allows them to rejoin their classmates. He then informs Lancaster that if he strikes a child again he will be fired on the spot. Lancaster refuses to respond to this, and Snoddy barks at him to tell him if he understood him. Reluctantly, Lancaster agrees to not use the cane, and furiously storms back to his class.Danny returns home to find William also in a bad mood. As soon as he sees the red welt on Danny's hand and hears that Captain Lancaster accused his son of cheating, he flies into a rage and announces his intention of hobbling over to Captain Lancaster's house and beating the living daylights out of him. Danny, knowing this will only make Lancaster's enmity against him worse, begs William not to, finally saying "I'll hate you if you do it" because William is past listening to anything else. Once he has William's attention, Danny insists this isn't William's battle to fight, and William hugs him and apologizes, explaining it's his frustration at being unable to teach Hazell a lesson that will get him to leave him and the rest of the village alone that has got him in such a touchy mood. The worst part is that he has the perfect plan - poach all 700 of Hazell's pheasants the night before his annual shooting party, and keep them at the filling station until after Hazell has been embarrassed in front of the high-society people he invites every year - but he has no means of carrying it out. Danny agrees such a heist would be the perfect remedy to the problem at hand, but there seems no way it can be done.That night, Danny spots the jar of sleeping pills Doc Spencer left for William, and is struck with a brilliant idea - dope all the pheasants so they won't be able to fly up to roost after the keepers go home for the night. William consults Doc Spencer and he agrees it's a great plan, and that it would make Danny take over his grandfather's place as the champion of the world at poaching. He gets them a large supply of sleeping powders, and says he will help them to collect all the drugged pheasants and get some extra help to do so. Next, William goes to Mr. Snoddy and asks for his help in carrying out the heist. Finally, he and Danny visit Wheeler's store and ask him for raisins. Mr. Wheeler knows this means they're after pheasants, so when they buy all 30 boxes he is amazed that they would try such a thing.Back at the Caravan, Danny and William begin the laborious process of crushing the pills into powder and drugging each raisin individually. They stay up all day and late into the night, until William finally tells Danny they must get some sleep - he'll close down the garage for the day and finish the last of the raisins himself in the morning.Danny runs to school the next morning and mercifully makes it on time. However, this, coupled with the fact he was up so late the night before, serves to make him utterly exhausted, and he falls asleep during class. Sid elbows him frantically, trying to wake him before he gets in trouble, but Lancaster spots this wakes him with a clapper and tells him he must stay after class. Danny tells him William has ordered him to come straight home after school, but Lancaster sharply tells him he must obey his teacher. He then punishes Danny, after the other students have left, by having him run 20 laps round the schoolyard. However, on the second lap, Danny discovers he passes out of Lancaster's line of sight whenever he goes round one particular side of the yard and takes this opportunity to use a nearby shed to climb over the wall and flee home. Lancaster, realizing after a few moments Danny has disappeared, runs in pursuit but is neither agile nor steady enough to climb over the wall and ends up tearing his trousers on a nail sticking out of the shed. Mr. Snoddy comes outside on his way home to see Lancaster, with the seat of his pants ripped, hanging onto the wall with both hands for dear life. Snoddy is clearly amused by the sight; humiliated, Lancaster screams at Snoddy that the school is a disgusting shambles and that he is resigning, to which Mr. Snoddy simply replies "Good!" and leaves Lancaster to fall off the wall.That night, just before sundown, Danny and William sneak through the woods, scattering the drugged raisins about. All goes well until Rabbetts and Springer appear. The two Smiths hide beneath some shrubbery to keep from being spotted. However, Rabbetts notices the pheasants are congregated about something and starts forward to investigate. Fearing they'll spot the raisins, William snaps a twig. The two keepers look about for the source of the noise but to no avail. In frustration, Rabbetts says he's had enough and is off home. Springer reminds him of the bounty Hazell offered them for shooting William, but Rabbetts scoffs and says William would never hobble about the woods with his leg in plaster and that he has no intention of staying up all night on the day before the big shoot, on the miserable wages Hazell pays them. Springer agrees this makes sense and they leave. Relieved, William and Danny continue to scatter the raisins.As darkness falls, the pheasants fly up into the trees to roost. However, just as Danny planned, they are too drugged to manage this and eventually flop back to the ground unconscious. William and Danny dance and celebrate, and when Doc Spencer shows up with Mr. Snoddy and the postman in tow, they have the pheasants all gathered together waiting for them. The five of them gather up the sleeping birds in sacks as gently as they can and carry them back to the workshop, laying them out on the floor to sleep off the drug. Doc Spencer wonders what they're going to do when they wake, but Danny knows exactly what he wants to do - set them free to live as wild birds. Danny and William, with Snoddy and Spencer's help, then send a fire balloon up into the sky as a prearranged signal that would let the rest of the village know they succeeded. The Clipstones, Mr. Wheeler, Sergeant Samways and all the rest of the villagers celebrate as they see the balloon fly by.The next morning, all the important people arrive at Hazell's estate for the shoot. Before Hazell arrives, they laugh about his attempts to fit in with their crowd and how he does everything wrong. But they are there because of the birds so they try to be polite when Hazell himself shows up on the scene. Springer gets a group of beaters together to drive the birds out of the woods, and Rabbetts starts setting up stands for the shooters. Hazell calls one of the guests, Sir Charles Tallon, aside. It is revealed that Tallon is a developer, and that the whole buying-land-for-the-annual-shooting-party thing is just a ruse disguising Hazell's master plan. His real intention, once he has all the land, is to develop a new township right in the villages backyard, destroying the farmland. This would have been opposed by the villagers, which is why he has kept it on the down-low. Tallon sees, on the maps and blueprints, the Smith's plot of land and says without it the development can't go forward. Hazell lies and tells him he's got the property cheap because he didn't tell William how much it was really worth to him. Tallon doesn't like these dealings, but business is business so he reluctantly makes a deal that his company will develop Hazell's new town.Everyone goes to the fields outside the woods for the first drive. Several villagers secretly watch as the beaters go crazy trying to drive pheasants that aren't there out of the woods, including Danny, William, and Doc Spencer. Hazell and his guests demand of the two gamekeepers where the birds are, but they don't know. The guests start to openly mock Hazell, and a furious Hazell orders Rabbetts to find the birds or lose what little pay he's getting.Rabbetts and Springer set off in their jeep to drive around Hazell's land, with Springer at the wheel and Rabbetts standing up looking around for pheasants. Meanwhile, Doc Spencer drives William and Danny back to the filling station, all of them still laughing over the sight they just witnessed. However, when they arrive they find the pheasants are waking up sooner than expected and are starting to run around confused, not understanding how they got in the unfamiliar place. Doc Spencer, Danny and William desperately try to keep them on the ground because if they fly up they'll be spotted, but it's no use. Several of them are seen by Rabbetts through his field glasses, and he alerts Hazell to where they are coming from.Hazell tears through the village in his car, with his gamekeepers' jeep and the cars of all the rest of his shooting party following out of curiosity as to what he's going to do. They knock Sergeant Samways off his bike in passing, and he pursues them, furiously. Several other people from the village run after them. Upon arriving at the filling station, Hazell smugly tells William he's caught him this time and that he will force him to sell his land. Samways appears and Hazell demands he arrest William for stealing the birds. However, Samways is more interested in serving a ticket to Hazell for unsafe driving, and when Hazell tries to insist, Samways says as he didn't see William in the act, the birds are on his land and that they are technically his for the moment.Tallon, hearing this, demands of William whether he still owns his property. William tells him this is the case and that he does not and never did have any intention of selling it. Tallon tells Hazell the deal is off and then informs the rest of the villagers standing round of what Hazell was planning to do, much to their horror. Humiliated and defeated, Hazell curses William and the villagers and leaves in disgrace, with Rabbetts and Springer in tow.Tallon remarks that William seems to have saved the day by refusing to give in to Hazell. William corrects him and tells him that Danny, who drove a car and saved him from the pit and instigated the whole proceeding, is the real hero here. The villagers give Danny three cheers as William triumphantly carries him on his shoulders back to the filling station and the pheasants fly free. | Danny, the Champion of the World | 192744aa-f6f8-4273-b0b7-3f387afee8f3 | What is William going to be doing at night? | [
